UK Judge: Samsung Wins Over Apple In Patent Dispute Because Its Tablet Isn't As Cool As iPad
from the that's-one-way-to-do-it dept
"They do not have the same understated and extreme simplicity which is possessed by the Apple design," said Judge Birss.Amusingly, of course, this puts Samsung in the position of celebrating its lack of coolness.
"They are not as cool," he said. "The overall impression produced is different."
In the end, this is the right result, but the reasoning is a bit odd, frankly. When patent disputes are being determined based on a judge's determination of "coolness," it seems like perhaps something is wrong with the system itself.

With The Man jacking up energy prices, it's probably not a bad idea to start investigating the benefits of solar power. (No, nobody cares about energy derived from the wind, Netherlands, thank you very much.) The solar panel in question is made from cuprous oxide rather than the usual silicon. Science Toys has the step-by-step instructions on how you can turn a trip to the local hardware store into a fun afternoon building a device capable of delivering a whopping 12.5 microwatts of power. Isn't learning fun?
Admittedly, this is more of a proof-of-concept than anything else since you probably won't even be able to power light bulbs or anything, but soon enough we'll be able to build bigger cells with bigger solar panels until we make a cell so large it will destroy us all. (Or something to that effect.)

How is it that so many people make the same resolutions every year?! With the top 3 resolutions made for 2013 being:
1) lose weight
2) improve fitness level
3) quit smoking (or other bad habits)
Not shocking right? These are the same resolutions made every year. What is happening? I'm going to give you 3 ways to create real change.
1) Don't commit to a schedule!
Now, I'm sure some will read this and not understand. If I have you scheduled for a session and you miss it, well... your still getting charged (because I love you of course). What I mean by this is, if you tell yourself I am going in to the gym Mon - Fri at 6 pm and your boss delegates a ton of work to you (of course they say "this is your chance to shine") you start thinking a healthy lifestyle will just have to wait. Instead start off modestly. I like to call it "under promise and over deliver".
2) Keep your program general.
Be general in your commitment. Allow room for flexibility (no pun intended) this will help adapt and overcome whatever happens during the transition. Make sure that you have multiple options for the day's fitness program ex. walking, biking, hiking, fitness classes, strength training exercises etc.
3) Remember change is subtle.
If you identify with the third most common resolution focus on creating new positive habits. This will help changing your mindset on what's important to you later. Absolutes almost never work. Try creating new habits that substitute bad habits. If you notice you like a cigarette after a meal, start walking for 10 minutes after you eat.
If you want to make more money and lose weight you have to read this!
Read about the barriers I'm coming up against in my training for the Tough Mudder. It may help you with whatever barriers are in front of you.
If you have suggestions please tell us we're kind of nervous :)

Location and General Characteristics
The Keewaydin neighborhood is located on the south side of the city, from Minnehaha Parkway on the north to 54 th Street East on the south, and from Cedar Avenue South on the west to 34 th Avenue South on the east. Most of Lake Nokomis is within the neighborhood's boundaries.
Keewaydin neighborhood, like Minnehaha and Hiawatha neighborhoods, received its name from an Ojibwe legend mentioned in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem, The Song of Hiawatha. "Keewaydin" is Ojibwe for "northwest wind," or "the home wind."
Neighborhood stores at the holidays. A gift shop and a corner café offering pastries and hot beverages could turn a winter stroll around Lake Nokomis into a cozy treat.

Facebook has apologized for deleting a photo of a woman in a bathtub with one elbow propped up, after originally finding it to be a violation of the social networking site's policies, the Huffington Post reports.
The photo was posted by the (NSFW) website Theories of the Deep Understanding of Things as a test of Facebook's response to content it believes to be graphic.
Facebook users who responded to a post about the photo suggested that those who deleted the photo mistook the elbow for a breast, although this was never confirmed by Facebook.
The Huffington Post contacted Facebook for a comment and was told: "This photo does not violate our content standards and we have already restored the photo. We made a mistake removing the picture and apologized to the page admin."
Back in March, Facebook apologized and reinstated a photo of two men kissing that it had originally deleted, citing a violation of decency policies. And, a breastfeeding mom recently staged a photo campaign on the site after Facebook deleted a photo of her breastfeeding her child.

Call me a doubting Thomas, but I just don't trust visual confirmation... I need the tactile sense of shit in my hands to believe.
Edward, having raised two children from infancy, trust me on this one, you really don't. Imagine a pile of something having the subtle tint of vomitus from the movie Exorcist, with the added fragrance of a decaying whale carcass on a hot and humid beach, all coupled with a placid visual scene of something that would terrify the creature bursting from John Hurt's chest in Alien. And, that's when the little one's plumbing is in good working order.
I think it's more of a hipster parent humor thing :P

Saints' top picks hustled, bustled in New Orleans
By Jay Glazer
SportsLine.com Senior Writer
METAIRIE, La. -- It took all of 10 minutes into his visit at the Saints' facility for first-round pick Johnathan Sullivan to begin his NFL baptism. The New Orleans Saints' top pick had been on the ground just long enough to understand the Saints were not going to wait long to get their money's worth.
"It is so good to see you, we're really excited about having you here, Johnathan," defensive coordinator Rick Venturi said, pouncing as his newest starting defensive tackle entered his office. "While I have you up here and before you go meet the rest of the guys, I want to go through some film of our last game and explain our system a little bit. I want you to see what you'll be doing out there."

With that, a first-rounder's honeymoon ended. For an outsider, the immediacy was shocking. Venturi played a tape of the Saints' finale vs. the Panthers and began the first lessons of a new career.
"This is called Under 89, Closed Left and we'll shade you out a little bit, put you foot-to-foot with the center so you can really fire in there and raise some hell," said the excited coach. "You see what we want from you in there? You got that?"
"Yes, sir," said Sullivan, his catch phrase for the day. On the play, the Panther back runs right then cuts left, leaving a Saints defensive lineman stuck in his tracks.
"You see that right there? We'd expect you to make that play. We think you will make that play, that's why we are so excited about you," said the highly respected Venturi. "On that play we'd expect you to fire back there and make the tackle. We don't want you to worry about keeping blockers off guys. We want you to use your nastiness and your quickness and your strength and get back there and raise some hell."
"Yes, sir."
There was that phrase again.
"Before I let you go, I know you have a lot of people you need to see, but I just need to go over a little more with you," said the coach as he forwarded the tape to another play. "This is our Hawk defense with an 'over' front. You'll be shading away from the close. You'd play run to the A gap but wrap him to pass."
Welcome to NFL CoachSpeak 101. Of course the kid responded with a 'Yes, sir," but it was clear the light went on upstairs when the coach continued to speak the language of football.
"You see how long it's taking our guy to get around on that stunt?" he asked. "You'll learn about this package this week at minicamp. It won't take you as long but you need to know what you've got to do out there. "We're going to have Charles Grant and Darren Howard set the table this year and you have to work that table. We'll start shaping our 2003 defense as early as this Thursday. We need you to be one of the guys who come together for us the quickest."
"Yes, sir."
The two continued to talk in what seemed like secret codes for another five minutes before Sullivan's initiation was over.
"I would not have been surprised if we watched a little film, but I did not expect to get some game plan already," he said. "It's all really exciting. I'm at a loss for words right now."
Actually, he was at a loss for words the moment his Saints experience began. Sullivan arrived in New Orleans 30 minutes before his meeting with Venturi. He and his college teammate Jon Stinchcomb, who just happened to be the team's second-rounder, walked through the gate at the Louis Armstrong International Airport through a sea of people unaware that they were in the presence of the Saints' newest millionaires.
They greeted Saints director of PR Greg Bensel, who for the eighth consecutive year arrived via limousine to grab the team's top pick, and an accompanying reporter. The two pillars marched toward an enormous 16-seater Cadillac Escalade limo when they were recognized by a fan of their new team. A 40ish looking man ran up to the pair, thrust forward his hand frantically welcoming them to the Big Easy, pulled out the obligatory pen and pad and requested their first autographs as NFL players.
"This is the first one," Stinchcomb muttered, as if to convince himself of this new reality. "Thank you, sir, but that's the guy you want. Make sure you get his, because he's our first-rounder."
Along with Sullivan's agent, Len Rowe, the group climbed into the car and headed nervously to meet their newest employers. During the short ride to the team's facility, the two talked as if they were going to swear off telephones for good.
"I made the mistake of having three phones going yesterday after I was picked," said Stinchcomb. "It's a great feeling, but they were ringing off the hook. How many calls have I gotten? I don't know anymore. I lost count."
Their first day on the job was nothing short of insane. Crammed into a five-hour stay was an appearance at a baseball game, a radio interview with a former major-league star, tax forms, equipment fittings and introduction upon introduction to their new family members. No amount of time would be wasted. Sullivan and Stinchcomb were handed off like batons from department to department.
Their visit began with a stop into the war room to meet the Saints hierarchy. As the Bulldogs entered the Saints draft room, owner Tom Benson, general manager Mickey Loomis, director of personnel Rick Mueller, senior football administrator Russ Ball and coach Jim Haslett all rose from their seats to meet and greet. They were then separated for the first time in their short careers, Stinchcomb heading for a tour with offensive line coach Jack Henry and Sullivan getting the grand tour of the grounds with his new D-line teacher, Sam Clancy.
"These are the equipment guys, make sure you're good to these guys or else they'll give you somebody else's dirty jocks," Clancy joked, sensing the youngster's nervousness. "You're going to have a lot of fun here. I'm not saying we won't push you to the limits, but you'll want to go to the brink for us.
"You're going to love it here because we're all straight shooters," the coach continued, partly to ease Sullivan's nerves, partly to prepare him. "Mr. Benson is a great owner to work for. He gives it to you how it is and he's fair. Nobody here lets their egos get in the way."
Sullivan was then paraded from coach to coach, beginning with Venturi's impromptu session. He was followed by linebackers coach Winston Moss, then special teams coach Al Everest.
"I'm numb right now," said Sullivan. "When I first started meeting everyone I was really nervous but by the time I got to the back of the room (with the Saints hierarchy), they had gotten a lot of that nervousness to leave."
The jitters may have dissipated but their first-day grind was just beginning. The duo was asked to make decision upon decision, including some of the same predicaments that the average U.S. citizen grapples with. "Hey, guys, I need two forms of ID, I need you to fill out the W-4 basic tax form and I need you to fill out the I-9 citizenship papers," said Debbie Gallagher in the personnel office.
In the first hour on the new job, Sullivan had already been schooled by Venturi, introduced to countless faces, fitted for helmets, asked to choose from about 50 facemasks and now required to actually concentrate and fill out forms?
"Ma'am, neither one of us have any idea how to fill out a W-4 form," said Stinchcomb, making perfectly good sense since college players are prevented from working. "Do I really need to do this now? I'll call my agent and ask him what he recommends I claim."

Tax forms were soon replaced by the mundane art of helmet-fitting and a 15-minute session with Saints equipment manager Dan Simmons, a.k.a. Chief, a locker-room folk hero. The duo put on helmets and actually had Chief use a pump to inflate the inside of the headgear to their liking before receiving jersey numbers. Their draft day diary had just hit a low.
"There was a lot of stuff that we had to do that I probably didn't expect," said Stinchcomb. "Things that you would not think about but I guess they have to be done at some point. It's been pretty intense so far."
Following their real world experience, the two were finally led to the first step in the fantasy world of being a pro athlete. The Bulldogs were chauffeured to the New Orleans Zephyrs Triple-A baseball game, where they threw out the first pitch and received a standing ovation from the crowd.
"I threw a 93-mile-per-hour knuckleball straight down the middle," joked Sullivan.
The two were then whisked to the press box for a radio interview with former New York Mets star Ron Swoboda before heading back to the Saints complex to finalize their minicamp uniforms and say their goodbyes.
They were nearly out the door, their nervous ordeal minutes from ending, when they received one final dose of reality. "We just traded Norman Hand," Bensel told Sullivan. "That is who played your position here last year. Have you heard the news yet? No? Well, we just sent him to Seattle for a sixth-round pick."
"That means you can't let your agent hold you out of camp, Johnathan," bellowed Clancy, who actually towered over the massive Sullivan. "Don't let me hear that you won't be in camp on time. You have to be here. We're counting on you."
Day One of his new life had ended. He and Stinchcomb headed back to the limo with a handful of parting gifts and tried to digest the experience in their new home city.
"It's a different career because most people when they get jobs they aren't told they have to go live somewhere," said Stinchcomb. "Most other people get a choice, but we don't. I got lucky because I really like it down here. There were some other places I would have been disappointed to have to go live. But not New Orleans. This has all worked out really well for us."
At least until they get stuck in those film rooms again or asked to fill out tax returns.

Who Won CPAC?
That's the question I keep getting asked in the wake of the three-day conference. It wasn't a question asked often during the event, for the simple reason that everyone expected Ron Paul to take the straw poll. But there were candidates who threaded the needle, and tried to avoid being embarrassed by the straw poll while building presidential buzz for 2012. Winners and losers lists are too sophisticated: Let's rank them.
1) Ron Paul
So that's out of the way. I've heard arguments that the backlash against his rowdy supporters would hurt him, but that's what we were hearing in 2007.
2) Gary Johnson
A third-place showing in the straw poll gave Johnson his first real media hook that wasn't some combination of "he wants to legalize drugs" and "he's the new Ron Paul!" Oh, sure, half of Johnson's coverage now will still be "how is he different than Ron Paul?" But that's an improvement. He met tons of reporters, commanded a small scrum after the vote, and is a slightly lighter shade of dark horse now.
3) Mitch Daniels
Social conservatives whiffed by condemning Daniels' appearance at CPAC. I'm of the belief that his "social truce" comments and positioning won't hurt him if he runs for president -- if asked about social issues, he has the right answers and the right record for the hardliners. His speech was smart and memorable, and, yes, it dominated the Drudge Report for twelve hours. And he formulated the "truce" issue perfectly. Of course, he'd done that in the first place only to see it chewed up by the news cycle.
4) Haley Barbour
For the first time, he gave a speech with national ambitions to a national audience, and he nailed it. (Both Daniels and Barbour spoke after the straw poll closed, allowing reporters to discount their showings.)
5) John Bolton
There is a place in every presidential race for the say-anything candidate. Bolton proved himself able to the task of becoming a new Alan Keyes, especially because so many 2012 hopefuls balked at mentioning Egypt -- an evolving situation that doesn't really fit into a partisan attack space.
6) Donald Trump
He's now somebody the media might take semi-seriously; reporters are now aware that he's working with Roger Stone and much-loved by GOProud. Now to wait until the Celebrity Apprentice season ends.
7) Mitt Romney
He performed fine in the straw poll, again, but didn't take the opportunity for a confrontation on health care. (If he watched what happened to Orrin Hatch, this was wise.)
8) Newt Gingrich
Soon to be taken much more seriously.
9) Herman Cain
His speech was light on substance and heavy on applause lines, as all of his speeches are, and he missed a chance to do... something... to win media attention as the GOP's possible debate-winning breakout star. Also, by the end of the conference, several reporters had embarrassing stories of talking to attendees who couldn't tell Cain apart from other black Republican stars.
10) Tim Pawlenty
The week Pawlenty launched his book was the week of the Tucson shootings. The day of his CPAC speech was the day Hosni Mubarak resigned. Quick: What did he say about either topic?
11) Rick Santorum
He gave a speech, I'm told.
12) John Thune
I could say the same, but Thune, unlike Santorum, is the focus of fevered speculation about his chances. The DNC even issued an instant response to his speech. They were among the only people who seemed noticing.

On The Road With Flip part 2
Next stop on the Flip West Coast Represent tour was the Simi Valley demo. On this stop we had Dave Duncan MC'ing and AVE joining us on the tour as a guest skater. From this point forward the voyage started getting into some rad and weird territory with the late night hijinx and pranks reaching new levels! People got their beds pissed on, shit on and worse… Tour chaos set to maximum carnage basically. After the demo we headed north to Tehachapi, CA where the fine people at Woodward let us session their camp for the day. Woodward is basically a giant compound with more obstacles to skate than any other place i've ever seen. They even have a mega ramp where Rune got a serious hammer and a few others got broke off… all good in the hood though. On our way out of town we skated an apocalyptic ditch spot that had some of the best and worst graffiti ever! Next stop… Visalia, CA. Check out this video from the Simi Valley demo and thanks to Skatelab and Woodward for the good times!

Greetings Muppet fans! I'm sure you're all aware that my videos celebrating Jim Henson and Steve Whitmire's birthdays were hastily removed due to apparent copyright violations (apparent here meaning... definite). When I first heard this I was less than pleased... I got rather ticked off and sort of grumbled for awhile... then I remembered something: It's Jim Henson's birthday. Who the heck cares that greedy copyright holders removed my videos? Today is a day to celebrate! 74 years ago today a genius was born, and 51 years ago the man who would continue that genius's legacy was born.
Yes, Jim Henson and Steve Whitmire have brought hours and hours of mirth and laughter and entertainment to the world, so it seems rather foolish to be perturbed on their birthday, no? So, instead, join me in celebrating all the wonderful things September 24th, 2010 has brought the world...
- A brand new blog, Jim's Red Book, is now online from The Jim Henson Company. The blog will have a Jim Henson quote from his personal journal every day! How exciting is that?! You can also follow Jim's Red Book on Twitter!
- Sesame Street Executive Producer Carol-Lynne Parente talks Katy Perry with Good Morning America. Later on in the clip, Elmo and Super Grover show up and are, go figure, AWESOME. This is a must-watch! If only to hear Grover ask if his outfit is too revealing.
- Sesame Street's "True Blood" parody: "True Mud" on YouTube.
- Elmo adorns the YouTube logo today. This is presumably in promotion of Elmo's brand new interview with YouTube where he answers YOUR questions (well, maybe not YOURS, exactly). Watch it, love it. Who cares about Katy Perry's boobs when we've got this?
- Jim Henson's Fantastic World opens in Chicago, Illinois today! Our very own Lisa the Intern has been there since 10:30 this morning to see Jane Henson's special presentation for the grand opening of the exhibit, and last night at the preview event we had one of our Muppet Mindset correspondents there to see The Jim Henson Legacy's Karen Falk give a preview presentation. Look for some great new articles about the exhibit here on The Muppet Mindset very soon!
Happy Birthday, Jim and Steve! Thank you for everything you've done, did, and will continue to do for the world!
Now, Muppet fans, go forth and have a fantastic September 24th!! Wear a Muppet shirt, watch Muppet stuff, dance around with a puppet on your arm, do the hokey pokey and turn yourself around--after all, that IS what it's all about!
The Muppet Mindset by Ryan Dosier

CBS's Censorship Of CNET May Undermine A Different CBS Lawsuit
from the didn't-think-about-that,-now-did-you? dept
We've written in the past a few times about Alki David's crusade against CBS, in which he sued the company, pushing a conspiracy theory about how CBS only went after his company FilmOn (the name of which was later changed, for pure publicity reasons, to AereoKiller) because it wanted to be the only one to profit from infringement. The argument was that because CNET was owned by CBS, and because CNET site Download.com had offered up software like Limewire, combined with CNET reviewers reviewing Limewire, it meant that CBS itself was guilty of infringement.
This was a silly legal theory, built more out of spite to annoy CBS. Unfortunately, since it was first brought up, we've seen many people passing it along (especially one particular YouTube video that calls out this "conspiracy theory" as fact, without any basis). However, knowing how independent CNET was from CBS, it always seemed like a particularly silly accusation, and the first version of the lawsuit didn't go very far, though a refiled version has done slightly better.
However, now that CBS has decided to rush headlong through that wall of editorial independence it may have totally undermined its own case. That's because, in responding to the case, CBS, in part, made the argument that a finding against it might chill free speech by encroaching on the editorial independence of CNET.
Except... in making this latest move, CBS is now making the argument that it has no problem butting in on CNET's editorial independence (or any CBS Interactive property), which may take away a key argument it has against secondary liability for any articles about infringement. Knowing the way Alki David has acted in the past, I'd be surprised if he didn't rush to use this in the ongoing case.

Kate Winslet marries Ned RockNRoll
Kate Winslet has married for the third time in a ceremony so secret even their parents did not know about it.
The film star, 37, was given away by Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio as she tied the knot with 34-year-old Ned RocknRoll – nephew of Virgin boss Richard Branson.
Only a handful of close friends and family were invited to the intimate New York ceremony. Kate's spokeswoman last night confirmed that the Oscar-winning actress had tied the knot .The wedding was held in a converted barn and attended by just six friends from each side.
Kate's kids Joe and Mia from her previous marriages to film directors Sam Mendes and Jim Threapleton were also there. Ned's brother Jack – who was with him and Kate at Branson's paradise retreat on Necker Island when it burnt down last year – was best man.
The besotted pair began dating last year and secretly got engaged in the summer Ned, born Abel Smith, is the son of Branson's sister Lindy. e works for his uncle on the Virgin Galactic commercial space flights project.
I better see some crazy Kate/Leo shippers up in here

Most of the diving was to exaggerate what was already a foul, so in that respect it is gamesmanship not cheating exactly. You could say it is cheating when someone deliberately takes a player out, as Australia did on a few occasions - most if not all teams do that anyway tho.Originally Posted by FaaipDeOiad

Define "taking a player out"? If you set out to injure someone so they can't play, then yeah, it's pretty dirty, but going in hard and fouling is hardly cheating, it's just physical play. If it's too rough it'll be carded, and given how harsh the ref was on Australia yesterday you can hardly complain that he didn't crack down enough on the fouls.Originally Posted by Scaly piscine
Diving in an attempt to win a free kick or penalty when there isn't one is cheating, pure and simple. It's just like a goal scored from a deliberate handball, kicking a player when the ref isn't looking or whatever else.
Mind you, almost all teams dive to some degree or another, but there's a big gap between Australia and Japan or Argentina in that regard.

Taking out a player, as in they go past (or as they're going past) an Aussie and the Aussie then deliberately pushes them over, grabs their shirt, trips them up or whatever because it's to their advantage to give away a free-kick instead of letting them continue. Japan were nearly always fouled when they dived, as opposed to a typical Harry Kewell dive which requires no contact whatsoever.Originally Posted by FaaipDeOiad
There's nothing wrong with that really. Provided it's not in a situation where it prevents a goal, it's just a foul, and slowing up the game by fouling the opposition is legitimate, assuming the referee is fair and calls the fouls when they are there. And if you are fouled and go down, it's not a dive. That's a foul. A dive is when someone is standing behind you (for instance) and does nothing wrong and you throw yourself to the ground in an attempt to win a free kick when there isn't one.Originally Posted by Scaly piscine
A foul is cheating. There's no two ways about it. Sides like Australia who are always making niggly fouls are very effective at what they do, because they avoid rash tackles and the like, and thus hurt the opposition but can avoid cards a lot of the time. but it's still cheating.

How on earth is a foul cheating? An accidental handball is a foul, as is a tackle that's fractionally late or whatever else. Yes, dragging down a player on their way to goal is cheating (sort of), which is why it's usually punished by a red card, but playing in a physical manner, tackling hard to impose physical pressure and slow opposition run and giving away the odd foul is perfectly legitimate, while pretending to be fouled when you aren't certainly isn't.Originally Posted by GeraintIsMyHero

Childhood obesity is increasing at an alarming rate in the United States. The childhood obesity rates in our country have increased from 5 percent to 12 percent in 2-to-5 year olds and from 5 percent to 17 percent in 12-to-19 year olds over a 15 year period. Here in mid-Missouri, we are certainly not immune to this problem.
Childhood obesity is increasing at an alarming rate in the United States. The childhood obesity rates in our country have increased from 5 percent to 12 percent in 2-to-5 year olds and from 5 percent to 17 percent in 12-to-19 year olds over a 15 year period. Here in mid-Missouri, we are certainly not immune to this problem.
A Missouri study performed in the 2000-2001 school year showed that 21.5 percent of Missouri students were overweight. Childhood obesity is considered a BMI at or above the 95th percentile and overweight is considered a BMI at or above the 85th percentile. BMI or body mass index is a measurement which reflects the relationship between one's height and weight.
Overweight and obesity in childhood can have ramifications that can affect your child's health for their entire lives. Children who are overweight as teenagers are significantly at risk for obesity by the time they are 25 years old. Children who fall into the obese category have an increased risk for Type 2 Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, asthma, liver disease, arthritis and joint pain, and sleep apnea.
What should you do if you think your child may be obese, overweight, or at risk for being overweight?
Your pediatrician is a great resource for information regarding dietary recommendations and exercise for children.
Get moving! Physical activity is a great way to burn calories and to have fun as a family. The American Heart Association recommends that children get 60 minutes of moderate activity daily. Active exercise includes hiking, jogging, jumping rope, dancing, inline skating, playing basketball, and swimming. Work up to that 60 minute mark if your child has been largely sedentary up to now.
Limit screen time. Our culture's increased dependence on "screen time" has contributed to the decrease in active time for our children. "Screen time" includes time in front of the TV, computer, and video game systems.
Increase the intake of fruits and vegetables. Decrease the intake of "empty calories" or foods that are high in fat and calories but low on nutrients. Make more meals at home and decrease the trips through the fast food drive thru window.
St. Mary's is a partner in CeMO WeCan, a community coalition striving to provide education and activity resources/choices to central Missouri families and schools. Other partners in the coalition include: Capital Region Medical Center, Cole County Health Department, Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Department, Jefferson City School District, the YMCA and more. CeMO WeCan is offering a program entitled, Be Fit Family, or BFF. BFF is an eight week program designed to offer education and activities for families on a weekly basis to help promote a healthy lifestyle.

Hello all,
Looking to hit on weekends or after 6pm during the week in the Oakland Jack London area. Just returning to the game after a 9 year hiatus. I can rally with play levels, up to 4 or 5 (tend to hit better when its a fast paced rally), but game play is about 3.0, (I'm guessing give or take, haven't played in 8 years) Would probably be more inclined to rally than game play, but just hoping to get back on the courts and start hitting again. Willing to travel up to 15 miles but would prefer Oakland, Alameda, Berkeley area. Hope to hear from you!

Hey - I might be willing to hit around. I live right near Bushrod Park on 59th between Telegraph and Shattuck and there are courts there.
Please let me know,
Hi Matthew,
I'm in a similar situation to you, haven't played in a number of years (I used to play alot), and looking to get back into it. I'm more interested in rallying as well and prefer fast paced.
I live in Alameda and am pretty flexible with times. Let me know if you are interested.

Valentine's Day is celebrated in many ways. Some use the day to honor their loved one; others call it National Single Awareness Day, and bemoan or celebrate their uncoupled status. Whatever your take on love, one thing is certain — love in all forms is fun, and the more you can laugh at yourself, the more fun you'll have. StageDoor Theatre's adult company is presenting a hilarious look at love in all forms in the upcoming "I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change," opening on Jan. 30.
There are times in when music can be made even more beautiful by the setting in which it is presented. In the case of the Evergreen Chorale's latest collaboration with the Jefferson Symphony Orchestra, the concerts' beautiful settings will make the music all the more joyous and the holiday season all the more festive.
The holiday season is upon us, and what better way to kick off your shopping than by supporting our local Evergreen artists? Friday, Dec. 5, marks the 23rd annual Holiday Walk in downtown Evergreen. The walk begins at 5 p.m. with the arrival of Santa and Mrs. Claus at the Evergreen Lake House to light the community tree. Crowds then walk with Santa down Main Street and take holiday photos, enjoy entertainment, and shop for gifts.
It's quite a hot time in the Borocle, one of downtown Evergreen's newest art galleries.
The gallery in the building at the southeast corner of Highway 73/74 also is a workshop for glass blowers Eric Post and Kyle Purcell, who create jewelry pendants, vases, goblets and other art forms. Mandie Smith rounds out the group, creating wire art plus soaps, scrubs and other items.
The age-old quest for "happily ever after" has unfolded in fairy tales, stories and movies throughout time. In 1986, Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine set out to create a musical that asked the next question: What happens after happily ever after? The result was a Tony Award-winning musical that presents a new twist on fairy tales. This weekend, the high school company of StageDoor Theatre in Conifer sets out to answer the question of life after happily ever after in its production of "Into the Woods."
"Grease" is the word around our mountain towns these days. Grab your leather jackets and bobby socks and take a trip down memory lane with the original high school musical! This sock-hop show performed by the Venue Theatre's high school company is sure to have audiences hand-jiving the night away.
Classic musicals stand the test of time because they have simple story lines, laugh-inducing scripts, and music that sticks with audiences long after the curtain falls. "Anything Goes" is a celebration of the great American musical and one of its greatest composers, Cole Porter. The latest production of this time-honored show, presented by StageDoor Theatre's high school company, offers a fresh take on this 80-year-old theatrical gem.
Surrounded by artists who moved to the mountains for inspiration, art lovers are treated to beautiful canvases filled with golden aspen and photographs of elk in mist-covered meadows. But when the Evergreen Artists Association's fall show opened Sept. 26, the concept of "mountain aesthetic" was redefined. The EAA's fall exhibition is the largest juried show in the recent history of the organization and displays works from 125 artists throughout Colorado.
It's definitely not traditional stained glass, and it's really not traditional public art, either.
Instead, it's a long roller-coaster-like ribbon of steel with attached bicycle wheels that are filled with stained glass. The 16-foot sculpture is the creation of Creative Stained Glass Studio, and it will be on its way to Kennesaw, Ga., to be installed in the atrium at AMLI Residential.

Flash famine a threat, warns Creative
Investments not products produce Q1 profit
Creative saw its sales slide sequentially in its first quarter and was only able to declare a net income thanks to a big investment gain, the MP3 player maker and Apple rival said today.
Revenues for the three months to 30 September 2005 - Creative's first quarter of fiscal 2006 - came to $280.2m, up 33.4 per cent on the year ago quarter but 8.3 per cent down on the previous quarter's $305.4m.
Creative reported a net income of $700,000 (one cent a share), but subtract the effect of a $10m investment gain and the company lost $9.3m (11 cents a share). Q1 FY2006's profit compares with a Q1 FY2005 net income of $4.8m (six cents a share) and a $31.9m (38 cents a share) net loss in Q4 FY2005.
At least the company's gross margins improved significantly from the previous quarter's 10.1 per cent to 20.2 per cent. That, plus a 123 per cent year-on-year increase in MP3 player shipments and an eight per cent reduction in the firm's inventory stockpiles, bodes well for the future.
However, company president Craig McHugh admitted that the company is facing a shortage of 1GB solid-state memory chips. The Flash famine is "primarily a result of a special deal that Apple has secured from a key supplier for the holiday season", he said. That supplier is believed to be Samsung. "This will impact availability of our 1GB flash MP3 players for the holiday quarter," he added.
Still, the company wants to get fully into the black by the end of the calendar 2005, and McHugh believes Creative has made progress toward realising that goal.
In Q1 FY2006, 66 per cent of the company's revenues came from MP3 players, compared to 44 per cent in the year-ago quarter. However, in Q4 FY2005, it was 68 per cent. Plug those numbers into Creative's overall quarterly revenues, and it emerges portable music player revenue fell 10.7 per cent sequentially. Creative didn't say how many players it shipped last quarter, but it's likely to be a lot fewer than the 6.5m iPods Apple sold in the same period. ®
