Here we go again: I can't distinguish the individual notes of this beautiful work by me favorite perfumer but I do love "Bulgari". It's not the first in their lineup I ordered, going for "The Vert" and "Jasmin Noir" first, but it smells so elegant and classy that I will stock up on this one before next reformulation round.
May 21, 2014
There is nothing as classic and beautiful as the scent of Bvlgari. It wraps you in elegance and is feminine without being 'girly'. I think this scent probably smells best on a mature woman. It's notes are sophisticated - too much so for a teen. It doesn't smell like an 'old lady perfume' (sorry older gals:) but it's femininity demands the idea of a woman that would know what to do if she got a hold of you, but, she would be to elegant for that.

We want to thank Tandemomma for sharing her experience with scorpions and how Bulwark Exterminating solved her problem. The following is a Austin Pest Control review she left on Yelp.
"Bulwark Exterminating
Categories: Home Services, Pest Control
When I saw the scorpion there on the floor I had a flash back of horror movies and images of swarms of creepy bugs out to get me filled my mind. After asking around the ONLY exterminating company anyone suggested to me was Bulwark. I called right away. MR.EFRAEN came to our door like a super hero to rescue us from the freaky insect. He was kind, explained to me how they come inside and why. I was very impressed with his knowledge. Thank you EFRAEN for getting those gross things away from my kids and keeping the creepy crawlies away!
Thanks For the Review!!

MeadoWatch, a citizen science program run by the University of Washington biology department, is recruiting volunteers to help monitor wildflowers at Mount Rainier National Park. The group is looking for about 50 people who enjoy hiking and viewing alpine wildflowers.
Volunteers chosen will survey the phenology of wildflowers this summer. Phenology is the study of life events, such as the timing of flowering and seed set.
"These events are very sensitive to variations in climate so volunteer participation will help us better understand how climate influences the flowers in mountain meadows at Mount Rainier National Park," said Anna Wilson, MeadoWatch coordinator.
"We're looking for people interested in gaining an understanding of how scientists study the potential impacts of climate change on native plants," she added.
Volunteers will be asked to attend one orientation session and conduct at least one wildflower survey in the park this summer. Depending on when the snow melts, the wildflower surveys will take place between late June and late September.
The hikes will start and end at Reflection Lakes on the southwest side of the mountain. The hike is an out-and-back trail that covers about 6 miles round trip with an elevation gain of about 1,500 feet. Volunteers will stop at nine locations along the trail and record plant phases for 10 different wildflower species.
Volunteers will be given free entrance to the park and may camp for one or two nights at the volunteer campground at Longmire.
Olympic National Park is looking for proposals to operate overnight accommodations, food and beverage, retail and other services at Log Cabin Resort within the park.
The resort is currently being run by Aramark Sports and Entertainment Services, under a temporary agreement with the park that will expire Sept 30. The length of the new contract will be for 10 years.
In order to be evaluated and considered for the contract, proposals must be received no later than 4 p.m. on June 25.
For more information, contact commercial services specialist Isabel Alvarado at 415-623-2225 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Mount Rainier's volunteer program is gearing up for the summer season and has several gatherings planned.
The first will be the annual volunteer brunch. It will be from 9-11 a.m. Saturday at the Tacoma Mountaineers Program Center, 2302 N. 30th St., Tacoma.
Participants are asked to bring a favorite dish to share.
The event will include a discussion of plans for the summer season and a briefing of general park news.
The park's Meadow Rover program is holding two training sessions in June. The first is for new rovers and will be held June 22. The training for experienced rovers will be June 23.

Susannah Breslin, Contributor
I cover vice.
Page 2 of 2
I tell Vickie what my situation is. I'm a freelancer, or an independent contractor, or someone who works from home. If you asked me to describe what I do in three words, I'd say, "I'm a hustler." But my business-of-one is growing bigger than my experience as a hustler knows how to manage, and I need to go from being a hustler to being an original gangster.
Vickie is nice. She is cool. She has an answer for everything. She's friendly, thoughtful, clear. She does not quibble or quaver. She demands you feel confident regarding her abilities, but she does so subtly.
Vickie says I'm not an independent contractor, I'm a consultant. I think, This is good, because everyone knows consultants make bank. She says things like, "This isn't science, this is persuasion," and, "Burger flippers work by the hour," and, "You're not really replaceable — there's not another you."
She is persuasive, and she is right.
TIP #3: Be willing to be wrong.
Near the end of the conversation, Vickie and I start negotiating. If I work with her, how much will she charge? I want to know. At this point, we are having two conversations at the same time: the one we are having in the real world and one about negotiating in which we negotiate.
It's like a tango. Vickie does everything she's always telling everyone else to do, and I sort of wish I would be less of a bitch and more like Vickie.
Near the end, I ask Vickie about something she did when we were negotiating, about why she did that, and she says, "Because I like you." This makes me think about a post I once wrote about how the only reason people will hire you is because they like you.
I think about how Vickie isn't a bitch. She's smart. It occurs to me that being a bitch and being smart are not the same thing.
I decide negotiating isn't really about negotiating with other people. It's about negotiating with yourself. It's about getting rid of who you used to be so you can make room for who you want to be.
Email me. Follow me on Twitter. My personal blog.
You're definitely not a bitch. And there really is only one, brilliant you. And, as you know, I don't BS. It's against my religion – the Church of Women in Business and the Professions. Thanks for the shout out! And thanks for NOT saying what I said to you, which is that despite all my advice to others, I am a charter member of the low self-esteem girls' club. I just "work it" to make sure my hesitancy does not get in the way of my ambition. Let's start a NEW club. The "we're not afraid to say we're ambitious women's guild."
Having known Vickie my entire life, I, throughout the years — and even as a child — have turned to Vickie as well.
Very nicely said, Susannah. Loved the post!
I'm totally confused…but then, this article wasn't meant for me, so I guess that's ok.
That was a kick ass nice thing to do, I mean, for a bitch :-) Yes, yes let's reclaim all the pejoratives. I love your very last sentence, because honestly, that's where it all has to start. You are in very good hands.
Be a bitch when it works for you; drop that persona as soon as it becomes counterproductive.
Read Vickie's counters to the (frequent) disagreements of readers like myself.
She is smooth, effective and convincing. We should all argue as well as she does.
I learn as much about negotiating as about Vickie's points of view when we debate.
I'm confused are we or are we not talking about how to show others the value of of your position, how it benefits them, so that they can have buy in and adopt your position as their own.
"I decide negotiating isn't really about negotiating with other people. It's about negotiating with yourself. It's about getting rid of who you used to be so you can make room for who you want to be." – Susannah.
This sounds to me like justifing to your self why it is a good idea to do what you have already decided you want to do. To in other words buy into your own position.
Your are correct, I feel, in that you first must have buy in before you can expect others to support it.
You must first decide if your own position/idea/proposal is reasonable and if it will have value for the other party.
And, you are going to your friend Vickie to confirm what you already have decided. When you say, "Be willing to be wrong." I think you are reminding yourself , she might not agree and have a better solution/idea.
Cult Leaders/Con Men/Politicians are the masters of making the unreasonable sound reasonable and convincing you it was your own idea. Be mindful of the depth of the water and the shark you could be swimming with, because I'm just hoping who you want to be is who you want to be a not who they want you to be.
The only defense for this that I can see is know who you are.
There's a difference between being a bitch and being assertive, and it sounds like Vickie is *smart* because she know what her values are and what she believes.
When evaluating whether or not to have buy in don't forget to factor in the consequences (good &… *&* bad), when negotiating and making your decisions. Just because we want to be or do something doesn't mean it's a good idea, or that others should dobit too.
Negotiation is just selling your position as the correct one. Giving value for value. Not win win.
Win Win is get people to focus on the good; in something, so both parties can/will over look any bad. Ya, I got a win, I had to sale my soul, but I got that win.
Being open to the posibility that you could be wrong is not a good reason to do something that you feel is wrong. Jo Bob says this is a good idea, but I don't know?… Never ever compromise your principles just to get something done. If your understanding changes that is one thing, but think for yourself.
Sometimes it is better to do nothing, than to do something half wrong.
"There's a man who thinks he can fly. To prove that he can he plans on jumping off a 50 story building. His friend thinks he's crazy, so he yells up to him, "I'll jump with you if you meet me halfway." – me.

Lots of folks will be celebrating the Fourth of July in coming days by shooting off fireworks. We'd like to offer a few words of caution.
Fireworks are not toys. Handled carelessly, they can cause serious burns and eye injuries.
According to a report from the National Fire Protection Association, injuries from fireworks increased from 8,800 in 2002 to 9,600 in 2011.
Children under the age of 15 suffered 26 percent of all injuries from fireworks in 2011.
Two years ago, 8 out of 9 emergency room fireworks injuries involved those that federal law permits consumers to use. Sparklers, fountains and novelties alone accounted for a third of emergency room fireworks injuries.
Fireworks caused about 17,800 fires in 2011, resulting in $32 million in property loss and 40 injuries.
On a typical Fourth of July, fireworks account for 2 out of 5 of all reported fires.
Clearly, the safest way to enjoy fireworks is through public displays conducted by professionals. Still, if you decide to try putting on your own show, use common sense.
Never allow children to play with or ignite fireworks. Even sparklers can be dangerous in the hands of a child younger than 12.
Read and follow all warnings and instructions.
Have a designated shooter, and be sure everyone else is out of range.
Light fireworks only on a smooth, flat surface away from the house and away from any combustible materials.
Always wear safety goggles.
If a firework fails to ignite, wait 20 minutes and then soak it in a bucket of water before throwing it away. Never try to relight a dud.
Always have a hose or buckets of water close by.
Use fireworks only as they were intended to be used. Don't try to alter them or combine them.
Never use homemade fireworks or illegal explosives. They can be deadly.
Alcohol and fireworks do not mix.
Have a safe and happy Fourth of July.

The "dog days of summer" are definitely upon us. Despite the heat, I hope you are enjoying some of the pleasures summer affords us…family dinners around the grill, sipping tea or lemonade by the pool, family vacations that offer either a peaceful escape or a new and exciting adventure, and so on. Often throughout this time of year, we find ourselves being more reflective as we watch a glorious sunset, listen to the birds sing in our backyard, or sway back and forth on our front porch swing. As you're reflecting on your life, your family, or how quickly your children are growing up, I hope you'll also join me in reflecting on the many benefits girls reap through their participation in Girl Scouts.Read More »

The group Montana Hunters and Anglers Action is wielding its cash to help pro-conservation candidates win elections.
Worried about falling poll numbers, some Republicans, led
by Sen. Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island, are resisting some of the
Bush administration's more far-reaching attacks on
environmental protection
High Country News examines the results of what everyone agrees was a "very weird election."
The nation may be intrigued by the contest between
incumbent Republican Rep. Heather Wilson and New Mexico Attorney
General Patricia Madrid, but the New Mexicans who will actually
vote in the election seem fairly disinterested.
Even Montanans critical of Sen. Conrad Burns admit
he's a genius at bringing home the pork – a fact that
may make it harder for his Democratic challenger, Jon Tester, in
the November election.
National pundits say the nation's political parties
are moving toward the extremes, but in the West, Republicans
– unhappy with some far-right politicians – seem to be
heading back to the middle.
It's not the Old West -- it's our guide to this year's Western elections.
The so-called "character issue" in politics – often
defined as voting for the person you'd most like to have a
beer with – is absurd for many reasons...
Democratic Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper's decision to run for governor of Colorado may throw a spanner into Republican plans to re-take the West.
Hal Herring believes that Democrats should give up on gun control, not just for the sake of politics but because it's the right thing to do.

Pros – Decent pay, managers work to make employees happy, overall great starter job, great benefits and 200 hours of vacation.
Cons – Supervisors lack vision and can be very counter intuitive to productivity, constant changes in responsibilities.
Advice to Senior Management – Great choice of management but the supervisor selection seems based on time of employment as opposed to actual strenth of employees which leads to a few dim bulbs in the supervisor positions.

The Associated Press
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — Investors shunned some of the nation's largest gun makers Tuesday, putting up for sale the manufacturer of the Bushmaster semiautomatic rifle used in the Connecticut school shooting and worrying that the attack could soon bring stricter gun laws.
Stocks of other gun companies fell, and one sporting-goods chain said it would temporarily stop sales of military-style firearms. In Washington, some former opponents of gun control signaled that they may change their position, potentially giving stricter gun laws their best chance of passage in years.
The most notable rejection of the gun industry came when the private-equity firm Cerberus Capital Management announced it would sell the maker of the rifle used in the massacre, which it called a "watershed event."
The shooting "raised the national debate on gun control to an unprecedented level," Cerberus said in a news release. "We are investors, not statesmen or policy makers."
In an acknowledgment of the changing political climate, the National Rifle Association promised "to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again." It scheduled a Friday news conference.
Bushmaster, Remington and DPMS are among the brands made by Freedom Group Inc., the largest firearms maker in the U.S.
The Madison, N.C., company sold 1.1 million rifles and shotguns last year, along with 2 billion rounds of ammunition. Its customers include law enforcement and military agencies, as well as retailers who serve hunters and gun enthusiasts.
Cerberus, a large private-equity firm best known for investing in Chrysler and other troubled corporations, appeared to have been under pressure from two sources: investors and the threat of more gun control.
Officials at California's huge teacher pension fund said they were reviewing a $600 million investment in Cerberus in light of the Connecticut shooting. Through its stake in Cerberus, the California State Teachers' Retirement System owns a 2.4 percent stake in Freedom Group.
Pension fund spokesman Michael Sicilia confirmed the fund owns about $4 million in shares of Sturm Ruger & Co. and $1.7 million in Smith and Wesson.

TRAVERSE CITY — She's only 12, but Hayley Masserang-Sosenko is already an award-winning cook.
The Cadillac sixth-grader has taken first, second and third prizes in the Manton Area Chamber of Commerce annual Chili Cook-Off and Pie Contest, with three different pies.
"I enjoy making the pies because we don't buy the crust. Everything is from scratch," said Hayley, a student at Mackinaw Trail Middle School. "Probably one of my favorites is my (first-prize) winning raspberry pie. It's simple and it's fun to put the designs on — and to eat it."
Hayley was 3 or 4 when she first stood at the counter in her great-grandmother's kitchen, part of a 114-acre farm in Manton that has been in the family since 1902.
"She had a little stool," said Eleanor Sosenko, a retired banker and director of the Manton Senior Center. "I just started her making simple little things. My goal was to make sure she can cook from scratch instead of eating out of the box when she grows up. It's healthier, it's cheaper, it's better for you."
Since then, the two have gotten together at least one weekend a month for foodie fun, from gardening and canning to cooking and baking. Over the years, Hayley has progressed from simple treats like the cookies and candy — think white chocolate-dipped pretzels — she often gives away for Christmas, to meals like wet burritos and cheesy potato soup.
She also helps out at home, preparing dinner with stepdad Chris Montague about four days a week and pitching in with breakfast on weekends. Staple dishes include tacos, hamburgers, Tater Tot casserole, spaghetti, eggs and cinnamon rolls — a favorite of her sister, 13, and brother, 7.
"She's actually taught me quite a bit, to be honest with you," said mom Jessica Montague. "She gave me her granny's enchilada recipe and she made some vegetable-hamburger soup the other night that was really good."
Learning to cook "outside the box" paid off when Hayley was 9. That's when she won first place in the pie contest for her Raspberry Ribbon Pie — fresh raspberries, cream cheese and whipping cream in a vanilla wafer crust. At 8, she took third place with her Peanut Butter Pie (peanut butter, cream cheese and Cool Whip, folded into a Graham cracker crust) and second place at 10 with her Toffee Apple Pie (apples, pecans and toffee bits in a traditional crust).
"She had to learn how to do it by herself because I told her if I had to help her and she won, she would have to share the trophy, which she didn't want to do," said Sosenko, a contest winner herself.
Hayley cooks on a gas stove. Her go-to kitchen tools include a stand mixer, glass measuring cups and special tubes for decorator frosting. For recipes, she relies on Sosenko's extensive cookbook collection or experiments to replicate dishes the pair have seen or tasted.
At Christmas, in lieu of candy and cookie trays, the young cook made each family member a cookbook called "Hayley's Favorite Recipes."
"We took all my favorite, favorite, favorite recipes I've ever had experience with and put them together," said Hayley, who often receives cooking-related gifts herself, including a hand-powered chopper and a pair of pig-shaped oven mitts.
An A-student who likes to ski and play volleyball, she said cooking is another form of recreation.
"I really enjoy it. It just takes my mind off things and it's fun," she said.
To try next: Oreo Bon-Bons — crushed-cookie and cream-cheese balls dipped in white chocolate — and her first two-crust pie.
"I want to try a blueberry pie," Hayley said, already looking forward to the next pie contest. "You can use frozen blueberries. They don't taste as good, obviously, but they still work."

What is this medicine?FLUOCINONIDE (floo oh SIN oh lone) is a corticosteroid. It is used on the skin to reduce swelling, redness, itching, and allergic reactions.
What should I tell my health care provider before I take this medicine?They need to know if you have any of these conditions:

If you do, rinse out with plenty of cool tap water. It is important not to use more medicine than prescribed. Do not use for more than 14 days.
Talk to your pediatrician regarding the use of this medicine in children. Special care may be needed. If applying this medicine to the diaper area of a child, do not cover with tight-fitting diapers or plastic pants. This may increase the amount of medicine that passes through the skin and increase the risk of serious side effects.
Elderly patients are more likely to have damaged skin through aging, and this may increase side effects. This medicine should only be used for brief periods and infrequently in older patients.

What side effects may I notice from receiving this medicine?Side effects that you should report to your doctor or health care professional as soon as possible:
- burning or itching of the skin
- dark red spots on the skin
- infection
- painful, red, pus filled blisters in hair follicles
- thinning of the skin, sunburn more likely especially on the face
Side effects that usually do not require medical attention (report to your doctor or health care professional if they continue or are bothersome):
- dry skin, irritation
- unusual increased growth of hair on the face or body
Where should I keep my medicine?Keep out of the reach of children.
Store at room temperature between 15 and 30 degrees C (59 and 86 degrees F). Avoid excessive heat above 30 degrees C (86 degrees F). Do not freeze. Throw away any unused medicine after the expiration date.
Remember, keep this and all other medicines out of the reach of children, never share your medicines with others, and use this medication only for the indication prescribed.

Dress up, bring your dolls and enjoy an 1812 afternoon tea at the USS Constitution Museum on Sunday, October 7. Meet Kathleen Ernst, the author of the newest American Girl™ Historical Character Series, Caroline Abbott™, at her first Boston-area appearance!
200 years after America secured its standing as a truly independent nation, American Girl's newest historical character, Caroline Abbott™, shows girls today how to stay steady and believe in themselves during difficult times. Caroline, an independent and adventurous nine-year-old girl whose story is set during the War of 1812, learns to face her most challenging moments using her heart as her compass. Going above and beyond to help those around her, Caroline gives of herself without expecting anything in return—becoming the kind of real everyday hero that any girl can be.
Get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of Caroline's world and how Kathleen developed the character. The presentation will be followed by a Question & Answer session and the opportunity to meet the author, get your books personalized, and take photos. There will also be craft activities and door prizes. Menu will include lemonade, tea, and a choice of desserts.
Afterwards, visit the USS Constitution Museum and take a tour of USS Constitution, a ship that fought in the War of 1812, like those Caroline Abbott™ knew at Sackett's Harbor.

KENT: Coach Rob Senderoff knew it was probably time to show his two senior team leaders — guards Randal Holt and Chris Evans — a little love.
There wasn't much positive going on for the Kent State basketball team. The inexperienced Golden Flashes had been stumbling through a four-game game losing streak, including a disappointing loss to Northern Illinois, which had won only four games.
"I'd been really hard on these guys," Senderoff said. "But I also need them to understand I'm in their corner. I wanted to make sure it's not just the assistant coaches getting shots up with them. I needed to do it, too. You need to know your head coach has confidence in you."
So early Friday morning, Senderoff had them join him for an impromptu shoot-around that included as much physical work as it did mental propping up.
"Coach Senderoff has taken it upon himself to get in the gym with me," Holt said. "Just getting in the gym, try to find a rhythm, get my confidence sky high and get it so that [my shot] feels good as it leaves my hand."
The powwow did wonders for Holt, who rebounded from a lengthy shooting slump to hit five 3-pointers in Kent State's (12-10, 3-5 in Mid-American Conference) 77-62 win over Eastern Michigan.
"He stressed to me and Chris to just let the game flow through us and trust our teammates more," said Holt, a Cleveland native. "Now, I think we're doing a much better job with that than we were earlier in the season. We're trusting our teammates and our teammates are trusting us.
"We're sharing the ball and working together and everyone's out there playing for each other. That's the way it has to be in order for us to win and get us playing our best basketball. That's what we want to do — get to playing our best basketball around now so when the MAC Tournament comes around, we've gelled and got our chemistry together."
The Flashes hope the hard-learned lesson continues to yield dividends as they proceed with league crossover divisional play tonight when they visit West Division leader Western Michigan (14-7, 6-2). They follow that at home Saturday against West Division cellar dweller Central Michigan (9-12, 2-6).
"[The losing streak] wasn't because we weren't playing hard," Holt said. "We were playing hard and giving it our all. We just hadn't played very well [together]. Coach Senderoff has done a good job of getting us in the gym and it paid off [in Saturday's win]. Now we have to go up to Western Michigan and play a hard-fought, grind-it-out game where we value each possession, play each play like it's the last and come out with a victory."
But it won't be easy. Western Michigan has always proved to be a difficult place to play for the Flashes, who own a 59-53 edge in the all-time series with the Broncos but have won just 19 out of 54 games at University Arena.
But that trend could change tonight. Not only have Holt and Evans refined their approach to games, but key contributors such as junior forward Darren Goodson have adjusted, too.
"I don't know if Darren didn't know what his role was or what," Senderoff said. "But he'd really been struggling up through the [Dec. 9] Xavier game. After that game, we watched a little film and I shut his water off. I told him, 'You can't do some of these things or else you're going to be gone.' I didn't 100 percent mean it, but I meant 70 percent of it.
"To his credit, Darren changed how he was playing and really started thinking pass first. As he did that, he began to play better and we started winning games. Then you get a little bit of a bigger rope because you're playing well and you're helping other guys play well."
In his past five games, Goodson, a junior college transfer, is averaging 12.2 points, 5.2 rebounds and shooting 59 percent from the field.
"If we continue to play hard, play smart and play together, we'll leave every game with a 'W,' " Goodson said.

A prominent education consultant who is alleged to have committed an indecent assault on a 9-year-old girl in Swampscott had his pretrial hearing on Monday.
At the hearing, Douglas Reeves, 58, of 100 Beacon St., #6, Boston, was scheduled to return to Essex District Court in Lynn for a compliance and election hearing on Dec. 10.
On Dec. 10, the judge will review whether both sides have complied with motions and discovery, and the defendant can elect whether to have a jury trial.
The pretrial conference report states that a motion will be filed on matters upon which the prosecution and defense have not reached agreement.
They are motions to include or exclude prior bad acts.
Reeves remains free on his own personal recognizance under several conditions restricting his contact with children.
Reeves is charged with indecent assault and battery on a child under 14.
Reeves' lawyer, Max Stern, said in an earlier interview that "this accusation is horrifying and devastating to Doug Reeves."
"It's simply not true," Stern said. "It never happened."
Reeves previously lived on Ocean Avenue in Swampscott, and is alleged to have touched a private area of the child in 2006, according to the court file.
The incident was alleged to have happened while the girl and her family stayed at the Reeves home on a trip that included a stop in Swampscott.
Reeves' conditions of release include the following:
- No unsupervised contact with children under 16 except for his stepchild
- No contact with witnesses
- No entry to any elementary school or middle school without an adult present
Prosecutor Anna Zalewski of Essex County DA Jonathan Blodgett's Office had asked for a bail condition requiring the defendant to stay away from all elementary and junior high schools.
Reeves' lawyer argued against the restriction saying his client is an expert in assessment of teachers and students, and gives lectures and seminars throughout the country. Often times the consulting includes visits to schools where he has contact with adults, not children, Stern said.
Reeves is the founder of The Leadership and Learning Center, which serves school systems around the world.
He is the author of 30 books and numerous articles on leadership and organizational effectiveness.
Reeves is a former volunteer for the Swampscott High debate team.

What does it take to win a Super Bowl? Here's what former Minnesota Vikings quarterback Fran Tarkenton — who, like Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning, is among the signal callers who has lost the big game more than once — had to say following Seattle's 43-8 win over Denver last Sunday: "It takes a village, and they have to be in their prime."
Quarterbacks can't do it alone, but the Monday morning quarterbacks seem to think so, which brings to mind a quote about NFL analysts from the late Hank Stram, who served as head coach of the Dallas Texans, Kansas City Chiefs and New Orleans Saints: "They don't know if the football is stuffed or pumped."
In a tight game, the quarterback might well be the difference. What we saw last Sunday was a team — Seattle — with the greatest balance that got all the breaks.
A village is composed of playmakers. An offensive line that gives its quarterback time to execute. A defense that can put pressure on the passer without having to blitz.
After a championship game, no matter the features of the offense — and whether it's in tune with the spread and hurry-up styles — and even if you didn't know the score, you could conclude who won the game by looking at the rushing yardage. Denver rushed for 27 total yards against the Seahawks. That stat reveals more about the game than any other.
I was among the many who had the highest hopes for Peyton Manning to win. Before the game I called his father, a longtime friend, to extend best wishes. This week, I was reluctant to reach out to him again. It was like having to extend expressions of sympathy.
However, when I called Archie sighed and said, "That's football. It was simply not a good matchup for Denver."
He was proud that his son helped his team make it to the big game. That was an extraordinary achievement.
Any analyst should be aware that the two best teams in the NFL this past season were Seattle and San Francisco. If the 49ers had won the NFC title instead of Seattle, the Broncos would likely still have been singing the blues on Monday morning.
As Archie said, these things go in cycles. After the merger of the NFL and the AFL in 1966, the AFC didn't have to wait terribly long for success, which started with Joe Namath and the New York Jets as they upset of the Baltimore Colts 16-7 in Super Bowl III in 1969. Later on, there was a period when the NFC was dominant, winning 16 straight from 1982 through 1997.
Lately, however, the Super Bowl games have been close, as opposed to those many years when a blowout was more likely than not. The last game was reminiscent of those blowouts of past years, but it was also a reminder that in the Super Bowl, if you play better defense than your opponent, you usually win the game.
Play defense and run the ball. Tarkenton was recognized in his time for his offensive creativity, but he can articulate succinctly the importance of defense and rushing the football.
"I have a PhD on that subject," he said.
Tarkenton led the Vikings to three Super Bowls: 1970 (versus Kansas City), 1974 (versus Miami) and 1975 (versus Pittsburgh).
"You know what our rushing yardage in those three games totaled? It was pretty sad," he said. "We rushed for 110 yards and gave up, in those three games, well over 700 yards.
"I like the hurry-up offenses in football today. Exciting. But you can always bet that the team which plays defense and runs the football will likely win the Super Bowl. It is not always about the quarterback. He can't do it all. It takes a village. You have got to be a team and you have to be in your prime to dominate like Seattle.
"This is not about Peyton Manning's legacy. All he did was get his team to the Super Bowl. He couldn't win it by himself. He has proven that he is the most consistently creative quarterback of our time. I was pulling hard for him because I like him, and, like so many others, like his family. In my opinion, if you put him in any championship game with a dominating offensive line, he is the quarterback most likely to succeed."
Will Seattle dominate the NFL for a spell?
Only if the Seahawks remain a village.

Wiltshire views sought on training for dementia carers
By Carer Support Wiltshire | Friday, December 20, 2013, 15:27
A survey has been launched to find out what training would help people who are caring for a relative or friend with dementia.
It has been put together by Alzheimer's Support, Alzheimer's Society
and Carer Support Wiltshire, with input from Wiltshire Council, and will
be used to inform the future commissioning of training for carers of
people with dementia.
Catharine Hurford, Deputy CEO and Head of Operations at Carer Support
Wiltshire, said: "Caring for someone with dementia is a tough and
sometimes isolating experience, but training can be an enormous boost.
"It can provide unpaid carers with the information and skills to help
them care better and for longer – it can also provide a welcome respite
from the responsibilities of the role and support from other people in
the group."
Carer Support Wiltshire administers a multi-agency training
partnership which provides free training for carers, including those
looking after someone with dementia. All current opportunities can be
viewed via their website at www.carersinwiltshire.co.uk
To take part in the survey online, please go to www.carersinwiltshire.co.uk/news Or you can call Carer Support Wiltshire on 0800 181 4118 to request a paper copy.
The survey closes on 20 January 2014.

Dendropsophus treefrogs mating--male is the smaller frog
Peruvian herpetologist Pablo Venegas in a Rapid Inventory
Andes/Amazon News: A new treefrog from Colombia and Peru
In late October 2009, Pablo Venegas and Rudolf Von May— Peruvian herpetologists who formed part of the Field Museum's 2009 rapid inventory team—recorded treefrogs that at the time they believed were Dendropsophus koechlini. The team was surveying a lowland rainforest between the Napo and Putumayo rivers, deep within the homelands of the Maijuna indigenous people.
Nearly two months later, a separate expedition in Leticia, Colombia uncovered more Dendropsophus treefrogs. In the genus Dendropsophus there are a dozen superficially similar species, most nearly impossible to identify. Venegas and a group of colleagues decided to tease apart how many species of Dendropsophus exist and whether all are related. They examined the DNA of 35 species and used a combination of morphological and molecular evidence to reveal two exciting discoveries.
First, the 2009 specimens from Peru and Colombia are new to science. They named the frog Dendropsophus frosti in honor of famed herpetologist Darrel Frost (Motta et al. 2012 Zootaxa 3249:18-30). The second discovery is that these superficially very similar species are more distantly related than previously thought.
The conservation prospects for the Peruvian populations of Dendropsophus frosti look promising. With ECCo's rapid inventory as a foundation, the Peruvian government declared the Maijuna homelands a regional conservation area in February 2012. The new protected area encompasses 900,000 acres of Amazon wilderness, including the location where Venegas and Von May found the new Dendropsophus treefrog.

Naturalist Wendy Paulson leads monthly bird walks on Northerly Island
ECCo Location: Birds at Northerly Island
Chicagoans used to know it as Meigs Field. Before that it was the scene of the 1933-34 Century of Progress World's Fair. Earlier still, and before Daniel Burnham envisioned it as an island, it lay beneath the waters of Lake Michigan.
Northerly Island is now becoming the newest leg in a triangle of great, pedestrian-scale lakefront attractions. The Island, with its colorful plantings of prairie flowers and grasses set against the lake and downtown skyscrapers, is a natural counterpart to the urbane spaces of Millennium Park and the emporia of Navy Pier.
Birders find Northerly Island to be a perfect demonstration that in urban conservation every small piece of habitat counts for migrating birds. In February, the non-breeding season, northern waterfowl such as Common Goldeneyes and Red-breasted Mergansers visited regularly. In March, Snowy Owls, unpredictable visitors from the tundra, oddly overlapped in space and time with the first arriving Song Sparrows, Eastern Meadowlarks, Eastern Bluebirds, and Red-winged Blackbirds. By April, some of the short-distance migrants like Tree Swallows, Fox Sparrows, and Brown Thrashers had arrived.
In no other place in the world are a great skyline, a Great Lake, and a great birding spot combined quite like this.

The elaenia as photographed by a professional...
...and by one of the two brothers who first spotted the bird
ECCo Uncovered: Birders descend on Douglas Park to see a South American flycatcher called an elaenia.
The birding community throughout the country was aflutter with excitement in April about a very unexpected visitor in the Chicago Park District park in North Lawndale, a bird called an elaenia. Even the Chicago Tribune ran an article. ECCo's Doug Stotz and University of Chicago's graduate student Nick Block are at the center of the discussions about what species of Elaenia it is, and the Museum collections have been crucial in helping draw a conclusion. Current thinking is that this is a Small-billed Elaenia, which would be a first record for North America. Birders in the hundreds—from all over the U.S.—got to see the visiting elaenia from April 19 to 22, when it flew off to parts unknown. The young birders who initially spotted the elaenia, Ethan and Aaron, are sons of Eric Gyllenhaal who worked in our Museum's exhibition department for several years (and clearly instilled a love of nature in his children).
The visiting flycatcher underscores the value of green space throughout our City—not just the lakefront—for migrating birds. Douglas Park was full of birds during the week that the elaenia was drawing people there: more than 100 species were reported between April 19 and 22, including American Bittern, LeConte's Sparrow, and eight species of warblers. Until the elaenia, most Chicago-area birders had never been to Douglas Park.

Thursday, May 2, 2012 —
Stanly County residents will have an opportunity to participate in the National Day of Prayer today.
The cities of Albemarle and Locust and the town of Oakboro will have observances at noon.
In Locust, Brenda Carpenter has worked with others in the city in organizing the event. Carpenter said she and others have already spent time in prayer so that the time of community prayer could have a lasting impact.
Carpenter has 10 community members assigned to pray for specific areas, such as local, state and federal government, the school system and churches.
West Stanly High School's ROTC will present the nation's colors, while Mayor Steve Huber plans to give a proclamation for the day.
The schedule is set to begin at noon from Town Center.
In Oakboro, Dr. Terrell Watts of First Baptist Church will lead the town's observance from Memorial Park in downtown Oakboro.
Watts said they will enjoy a time of singing and prayer, including the seven points suggested by the National Day of Prayer organization.
Those prayers will be said specifically for the government, military, media, businesses, education, church and family.
In Albemarle, WSPC and WZKY station owner Matt Smith has organized an agenda of activities to begin at noon.
From Courthouse Square Park, the observance will begin with a pledge to the flag, along with a proclamation from Mayor Whit Whitley and Stanly County Commissioner Lindsey Dunevant.
After a devotion from Prospect Baptist Church Pastor Stoney Benfield, prayers for the community, businesses and children will be recognized.
The National Day of Prayer can be traced back to as early as the 1770s, but was modernly recognized in 1952 by President Harry Truman. It is now recognized each year on the first Thursday in May.

text: As I near 1000 reviews for Horror Movie A Day (!!!), I find myself trying to think of films that truly disturbed or unnerved me. Very few come to mind, and some, like Last House In The Woods, merely made me gag or momentarily queasy. Others, such as Martyrs, just made me feel a bit apologetic, as the neighbors could probably hear the sound of a woman screaming for nearly 40 minutes straight. Really, there are only two that I can think of that truly left me uncomfortable, giving me that whole "still thinking about it the next day" reaction I always hear about but rarely experience. One is Dread, which I just saw last week, and now we have Grace, which is another film that seems designed to make carnivores rethink their ways, amongst other things.

I want the mrx. I'll send paypal this evening. Shipping is to 84032. $900 out the door, right?
Everything (all accessories minus the broken cd) included, right?

Following the shooting rampage that , Los Angeles County Sheriffs issued a statement alerting residents that there will be an increased presence of Sheriffs deputies on school campuses across the county for the next several days.
According to the Sheriffs department:
"The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department works closely with all schools, public and private, within our policing jurisdiction to enhance safety for students and staff. Preventing these tragedies is a goal of law enforcement, schools and society as a whole. When an incident at a school does occur, it is our mutual goal to rapidly, safely, and efficiently resolve it."
The department noted that each school is required to have a School Safety Plan specific to that campus that addresses emergency events. Sheriff's deputies, as well as local police authorities, train for a variety of emergencies with school staff. Each plan includes shelters, evacuation centers and lockdowns.
