Key matchups: Ravens vs. Chargers
Columnist Mike Preston examines three critical battles in Sunday's Ravens-Chargers game at Qualcomm Stadium.
Image 1 of 4
Chargers QB Philip Rivers vs Ravens S Ed Reed( November 21, 2012 )
Rivers has lit up the Ravens secondary in the past because Reed is undisciplined and fails to protect the deep third of the field. The Chargers don't have much of an offensive line, so Rivers doesn't hesitate throwing deep and tossing the ball around. He has thrown for 17 touchdowns but also been intercepted 14 times. Reed has to maintain discipline because the Chargers are unlikely to mount long drives. They need big strikes. Edge: Even.

The distribution of vaccines through the www.hitlabnz.org developing world is sometimes limited by a lack of available refrigeration for the storage of the vaccines. In some parts of the world, more than half of the vaccines spoil before they can be administered. Millions of viagra oral gel lives and billions of dollars are lost due to indian cialis a lack of refrigeration. A new solar refrigerator developed by the Appropriate Technology Collaborative can provide lifesaving cold storage for vaccines with an inexpensive system that can be built from locally available materials.
The solar refrigerator is now entered in competition for the NASA Tech Briefs Create The Future Contest. The refrigerator needs no electricity and should require only minimal maintenance since it has no valves or moving parts. With the ATC refrigerator, it is possible to maintain WHO and UNICEF compliant "chain-of-cold" storage of vaccines.
"The ATC Solar Vaccine Refrigerator is a robust, easy to maintain technology that can be made in the country or region where it is to be used. It is made out of simple materials that can be found in most cities: steel, charcoal and ethanol or methanol. The finished product has no moving parts that need maintenance and it doesn't use electricity of any kind. One simply places it in sunlight and it freezes. Period. (Note: If the sun doesn't shine it can run on biofuels)"
Appropriate Technology Collaborative is a non-profit organization headed by former EcoGeek contributing writer John Barrie. ATC works to develop technologies to improve the lives of people in developing countries. But, unlike a host of other such organizations, ATC works to make systems that can be built and maintained by local engineers and wffisher.com local workers. ATC's designs are made available through Creative Commons and published online to make them available in developing countries and so that other NGOs can copy or improve upon their work.
You can vote for the ATC Refrigerator design at the order discount tramadol NASA Tech Briefs Create The Future Contest.

Missouri (E.C. v. Sherman)
Children's Rights filed this class action in August of 2005, together with a broad coalition of local advocates, when a new Missouri law threatened to cut off critical adoption subsidies for special needs foster children. The federal complaint asserts that the law, known as Senate Bill 539, violates the rights of children under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the federal Adoption Assistance and Child Welfare Act (as amended), and the Contracts Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
Children's Rights secured initial temporary orders preventing the law from taking effect until the trial. Shortly thereafter, Children's Rights won class certification so that the case could proceed on behalf of the thousands of children who would be hurt by the new law. Following a federal trial in April of 2006, the plaintiff children won on all legal claims and the court permanently banned the adoption subsidy provisions of Senate Bill 539 from ever taking effect.
The defendant — Director of the Missouri Department of Social Services K. Gary Sherman — immediately appealed the ruling, but the appeal was later withdrawn and the permanent ban on Senate Bill 539 remains in place.

- North Dakota State capped its first undefeated regular season since 1990 and cemented its case for the nation's top overall seed in the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs with a 42-0 victory over South Dakota in the Missouri Valley Football Conference on Saturday, Nov. 23.
Brock Jensen passed for two touchdowns and running backs Sam Ojuri and John Crockett each rushed for a pair of touchdowns as North Dakota State (11-0, 8-0 MVFC) extended its winning streak to 20 games, including 11 in a row at Gate City Bank Field at the Fargodome.
Crockett's scoring runs both went for 28 yards, Ojuri scored from 1 yard to cap a 12-play, 95-yard drive and exploded for 55 yards on a two-play scoring drive. Ryan Smith caught a career-long 64-yard pass on a one-play scoring strike and Zach Vraa tied the NDSU record with his 11th TD catch of the year on a 22-yard pass from Jensen.
NDSU's defense, ranked second in the FCS, posted its second straight shutout of South Dakota after a 54-0 win last year. The Bison have three shutouts for the first time since the 1997 team held four opponents scoreless. USD (4-8, 3-5 MVFC) entered NDSU territory only twice before a punt and an interception in the end zone by Christian Dudzik.
Middle linebacker Carlton Littlejohn led the NDSU defense with 10 tackles and an interception, left end Cole Jirik had two sacks, cornerback CJ Smith broke up two passes, and linemen Brian Schaetz and Mike Hardie each had a pair of quarterback hurries.
Smith, who caught four passes for 111 yards, surpassed T.R. McDonald for fourth place in career receptions at NDSU and now has 136 catches for 1,596 yards. Eight receivers caught passes for NDSU and Jensen finished 16 of 22 with 230 yards passing.
Ojuri went over 1,000 yards rushing for the third season (1,002) and moved past Tony Satter for fifth place all-time in rushing at NDSU now with 3,298 yards. The Bison rushed for 296 yards and outgained USD 553-214 in total offense.
USD quarterback Kevin Earl was 10-for-26 for 101 yards and Jordan Roberts ran for 107 yards on 20 carries. Roberts is just the third player to rush for at least 100 yards against the NDSU defense this year.
North Dakota State, the automatic qualifier from the Missouri Valley Football Conference, is expected to receive a first-round bye in the FCS playoffs. The top eight seeds and full 24-team bracket will be announced on the NCAA selection show at 10:30 a.m. CST on ESPNU television Sunday, Nov. 24.

SPOKANE, Wash. - On Thursday Spokane Police arrested 20-year-old Josh Stetar of New York again, and formally charged him with communication with a minor for immoral purposes, stalking, and harassment.He's being held at the Spokane County Jail on a $100,000 bond and his arraignment is scheduled for January 30th at 3:00 p.m.
Stetar was previously arrested in December after driving 40 hours straight to Spokane and threatening to rape two young girls he met playing video games online.
When Stetar was released from his previous arrest he remained in Spokane for further investigation. Detectives learned that he might have been attempting to contact the victim again.
It was determined that Stetar posed a threat to the victim and her family. He was taken into custody Thursday and booked after being stopped at Trent and Hamilton.
Police are asking anyone that has seen Stetar in the area of Ferris High School, to please contact the police at 242-TIPS.
Friday night December 29, 2007, Spokane Police investigating a harassment complaint arrested Stetar after he threatened to rape two young girls.
Police investigation revealed that the 15-year old Spokane girl met 20-year old Joshua R. Stetar of Saratoga Springs, New York, while playing an interactive X-Box 360 video game. The game called Halo features the ability to talk to players around the world using a headset.
Police say Stetar and the girl had been talking since 2006, and that several times he had sent packages and flowers to her home, items that her parents returned. The victim had also received several hundred text messages on her cell phone in 2007, forcing the victim's mother to change her daughter's number. However, Stetar was able to get the new number from someone and started sending the victim messages again.
Around 9:30 p.m. Friday night the suspect sent a text message to the victim saying he was driving by her house at that moment. In the message he even described his vehicle, a Gray Oldsmobile. The girl's parents were outside the home and in fact saw the car driving past.
At 9:36 p.m. the victim received another text message from the suspect saying, "Tell the cops that I'm gonna rape you and your sister."
The suspect had also mentioned that he was staying at a Days Inn in Spokane.
The girl's father called in a harassment call to police, who later learned the suspect was actually staying at the Econo Lodge at 120 W. 3rd Ave. Officers found the Oldsmobile Cutlass with New York license plates in the parking lot.
During a police interview the suspect admitted he was able to get much of the 15-year old victim's personal information such as her address and cellular telephone number by "Googling" her name on-line.
Stetar also said he flew to Spokane on October 23rd of this year and rented a U-Haul van to drive by the victim's house. The victim's mom says she was unaware of this visit. Stetar said he lived in New York and drove 40-hours straight to get to Spokane.Police also learned that during the summer of 2007 Stetar "Googled" information on the victim's cousin who lives in Billings. He harassed the victim's cousin with text messages until police in Billings eventually called him and told him to stop.
Stetar was initially booked into the Spokane County Jail on one felony count of Stalking.

One of the most stirring tales of chivalry is that of King Arthur and his Round Table. It is a story with the power to engage the listener, thrill the theatregoer and delight the opera lover. And now this legendary hero becomes the focus of an entirely new theatrical conglomerate, when those two great cultural institutions (and Dresden neighbours), the Staatsschauspiel and the Semperoper, join creative forces.
The opinion of the 17th century playwright Peter Motteux that »the English mind is such that it cannot bear continuous singing« is reflected in this semi opera by Henry Purcell and John Dryden, a unique symbiosis of music theatre, drama and visual spectacle. Premiered in 1691 in London's Dorset Garden, at the time the most magnificent theatre in the whole of England, Purcell sends his titular hero, »King Arthur«, to do battle against Oswald, King of the Saxons. Rivals for the hand of Princess Emmeline of Cornwall, the two monarchs are magically assisted in their struggle by some old acquaintances. At Arthur's side is his trusted counsellor Merlin, while Oswald can count on the support of the magician Osmund, the »earthy spirit« Grimbald and – at least initially – the »airy spirit« Philidel, all of whom make use of supernatural powers to gain control over Emmeline. The magical nature of the plot is underlined by a bewitching score that even today still has the power to captivate theatregoers and opera lovers alike.
A semi opera by Henry Purcell / John Dryden, Prologue and epilogue by Armin Petras Performed in German and English
Running time 3 hours 15 minutes

MADISON, WI (WSAU) - As many expected, a Dane County judge has not granted a Motion to Stay in the ruling that declared parts of Wisconsin Act 10 unconstitutional. Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen filed that motion September 14th after the Honorable Juan Colas ruled that parts of Act 10 violated school and local employees' constitutional rights to free speech, free association and equal representation. He based his decision on Act 10 capping union workers' raises but not those of their nonunion counterparts.
The Madison teachers union that sued the state and Attorney General Van Hollen both believe they will win in the appeals process. Van Hollen asked for the stay of Judge Colas' ruling to prevent chaos while the appeal process moves on. Colas said the state, "failed to show that they will suffer irreparable harm if the stay is not granted."
The decision from Judge Colas opened a window of opportunity for unions, schools and local governments to restart bargaining sessions. Many employers declined to reopen contract talks. Others including Madison teachers acted quickly to get new contacts while the ruling is at least for now in their favor, knowing the issue will continue to be tied up in the courts.

VERNON, Conn. (AP) _ Vernon police have arrested a local man for his alleged involvement in the assault of a Brown University basketball player hospitalized with severe head injuries.
Police said Tuesday they arrested Tory Lussier at his home. Providence, R.I., police hold a felony arrest warrant for the 25-year-old Lussier.
He was being held at the Vernon Police Department as a fugitive from justice on the Rhode Island warrant and is to appear Thursday in Rockville Superior Court for arraignment and extradition proceedings.
It wasn't known if he's represented by a lawyer.
A spokesman for Rhode Island Hospital said Wednesday that 21-year-old Joseph Sharkey of Norwood, Mass., remains in critical condition.
Police say a man hit Sharkey in the head on Sunday morning as he spoke with a group of women. Authorities say an altercation took place shortly before.

Question: I have a number of Excel spreadsheets and Access tables with similar data that I would like to merge into one large database to make queries and reports. What is the best way to do this?
Answer: This is a more complex question to give a quick and simple answer without knowing what the data looks like. Basically, if the data has the same headings (fields) and field types, it should import well into an Access table. In looking and this user's data, even though the headings were similar, they were not exact the same. They needed to modify the headings to be sure they were the same in all tables involved. Then the Excel files can import into the master Access table. If the old tables are in Access, you create an Append action query and select the old table with the fields you wish to append to the new master table. You may want to unselect primary keys in case ID fields are used in individual tables. You can then use a Query Wizard to search for duplicates or unmatched data in a table. In many cases, however, more one-on-one help is required to assist users when moving data from one application to another, especially if it involves several data sources.

Mayor's Litter-Free Louisville Summit Generates Ideas to Reduce Clutter 'Street Spam,' litter hotline and cigarette litter addressed
Temporary signs cluttering roadways, cigarette butts, and a hotline to report litterers were among the topics discussed yesterday at Mayor Jerry Abramson's Litter-Free Louisville Summit.
The summit, hosted by Brightside as part the ongoing community-wide "Keep It Clean" campaign, brought more than 80 business, civic and neighborhood leaders to the Galt House Hotel and Suites to discuss issues pertaining to all forms of litter and develop new tactics to reduce litter across Louisville.
"I'm challenging citizens and businesses to get involved in cleaning up our community," Abramson said. "We created Brightside 20 years ago to mobilize our city to become more clean and green with year-round cleanups and new initiatives. By working together; we can make our hometown a cleaner place to live."
Results of the summit include:
In addition, Abramson formed a Litter-Free Louisville citizen task force and charged agencies of city government to develop campaigns to address cigarette litter and temporary signs illegally placed in the public right-of-way – known as "street spam."
Abramson said Brightside and other city departments have together made progress in combating litter. Increased litter removal and education efforts over the past year include:
Sponsors of the Litter-Free Louisville Summit include: BIRP- Business Industry Recycling Program, Galt House Hotel & Suites, Keep America Beautiful, and White Castle.
For help organizing a neighborhood cleanup or questions regarding any of the above initiatives, call Brightside at 574-2613 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

The news about a broken bike (or not) is a chaotic as this Tour. With Contador out, it leaves the race with no previous winner. As of 9:00 am, this is what I knew about his bike
So far @albertocontador bike may have exploded, the spare fell of the roof, split, hit something and broke or not. #TDF— byron@bikehugger (@bikehugger) July 14, 2014
Then APF published photos of #31 (Contador's race number) with the downtube broke at the lower water bottle bolt and the seat-tube juncture. Spesh released a statement wishing Contador a speedy recovery and addressing the bike
We are concerned about the well-being of Alberto and will be keeping you up to date on information from the incident here. This is DS Bjarne Riis description of the crash, ""Alberto crashed on a fast and straight part of the descent. He was reaching for his pocket and the bike was swept away under him probably because of a bump or hole in the road. Alberto was in the shape of his life and the entire team had our eyes fixed on the podium in Paris and the work we would have to do to get there". Reports from Tinkoff-Saxo are saying the team car drove over the frame and Alberto was given a new bike but, after riding 18km further with a broken leg he had to abandon. Please check back here for the most up to date information.
At the Tour, Caley Fretz published this report in Velonews
Initial reports on the Tour's race radio, in French, and by NBC Sports' Steve Porino, that Contador's bike was "in pieces," appear to be correct. "His frame snapped in half. They threw it in a heap in the back of the car," Porino said, noting that he had arrived shortly after the crash.
Contador's bike broke in the lower third of his down tube and on the top tube just in front of his seat tube. Both tubes were broken clean through, with just a few fibers holding the two pieces of the frame together.
As the story develops, note that bikes do break, and the number 31 Tarmac hasn't made the Wikipedia list of conspiracy theories yet. Failures happen, as I've lamented in editorials, but not catastrophically, and from the photo, it looks like a bike that's been doored (on a roof rack driven into a garage).
But where it failed suggests a massive downward force, not a crushing/sideways force. It's impossible to say from that one photo and if crushed under wheels, those areas would've been flattened. With so much speculation, we probably won't get forensics, the CSI treatment, or autopsy.
At this point of the Internet freakout, who'd believe it?
Mostly glad Contador is going to be okay and will say what was said to me about this year's Tour from an insider
Total Shitshow.
That just got shittier.
And my guess that it looked "doored" is another version of the story from Cyclingtips who said that the racks of the Tinkoff Saxo got tangled with TeamBelkin's car.
The badly damaged frame shown on French television did not occur in the impact, but rather was a spare machine damaged on the roof of the Tinkoff Saxo team car during the frantic moments after the Spaniard fell.
However, where are the tears, cracking? This is clean, sheared break.

That was a two Tony stage, as the AP reports
Germany's Tony Martin took the stage win Sunday, and France's Tony Gallopin took the yellow jersey during an up-and-down Stage 9 in the eastern Vosges mountains.
and I rode a new Tarmac like #panzerwagen did; well, not exactly like him, but the bike and here's the review from issue 12
New Tarmac in matte black
The Zipp wheels I had with me in Maui earlier this year. A Bianchi like Lars Boom rode, the Bianchi Infinito CV, has been shipped to us to demo and we'll get on that in the next few weeks.
Slept in late after a busy week editing our mag and missed stage 8, but up in time for 9 and Panzerwagon!

Alone for about 144km, after riding away from the group, they chased but he held them off. Tony Martin is a "tank" and blitzkrieged the stage.

Hello Everyone,
I'm John and was directed here from my Facebook page by Tracy.
I've been a fan of Tom's since seeing The Golden Voyage of Sinbad as a little boy. Then when he took over as Jon Pertwee's successor in Doctor Who I was hooked!
I thoroughly enjoyed Tom's tenure as The Doctor and still to date he is my favourite actor to have played the role.
I had the pleasure of meeting Tom at Longleat in 1996(?) at a signing and he was happy to pose for pictures and chat to my girlfriend (now wife!) and I. Thank you Tom
I am a huge Doctor Who fan in general with a large collections of props and costumes, which I use at charity events and comventions. I am looking forward to seeing Tom again at Collectormania at the beginning of June.
Anyway, that's enough about me! Looking forward to chatting with you all..

When the Hillsborough County Board of Commissioners meets Wednesday, they'll hear from one of their own on the subject of horse slaughter, and allegations that the county has a big problem with the illegal sale of horse meat.
It has been two weeks since FOX 13 News first reported on the year-long undercover investigation by Richard Couto, founder of Animal Recovery Mission, and the
man who helped lead the charge against illegal horse slaughter in the Miami area.
The man who calls himself "Kudo," says he started secretly shooting video at six farms in the Citrus Park area last June, documenting horrific scenes of horse and animal carcasses, piles of bones and burned horse skulls.
Kudo says he also made four horse meat buys during that period, two of them accompanied by an undercover USDA agent.
The sale of horse meat was banned two years ago by the Florida legislature, a bill introduced in the state senate by Victor Crist, now a Hillsborough County commissioner.
A Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office spokesman says the new law doesn't ban slaughtering a horse for your own personal consumption, but Crist says if that's a loophole being exploited, he wants to close it.
"I believe there's enough support out there to get this done, but it's going to take doing a Senate bill, a House bill, a companion bill to get the job done of no slaughtering of horse meat for human consumption in the state of Florida," Crist said.
Crist says he'll ask the chairman of the Board of Commissioners to send a letter to the local legislative delegation, asking for their help. He also says he was alarmed by what he considers inhumane slaughter on some of Kudo's video, and where it's happening: in a densely populated area of the county.
Crist says he'll introduce a motion to ask the county attorney to review local ordinances and zoning rules and regulations.
"If you have a legal slaughterhouse, we at the local level can determine where and when that would be appropriate. Frankly, in a suburban bedroom community where you've got people living in and around it, frankly, isn't an appropriate site," he said.

Shinwa Full Size Carving Tool Set, 5 piece
I have been carving on and off for years and have started to take it more seriously as a hobby. I worked with X-acto tools for the most part which were just OK. But I purchased this set of carving tools to expand my wood working capabilities. I have so far been really impressed with these tools they are more along the lines of a smaller tool great for detail work. They were pretty sharp out of the box. I touched them up with a wet stone and a shrop and they cut beautifully since. They do have a set with 7 tools I would recommend the extra 2 tools because they really are worth the money.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Great kit, but pricey

About Me
We use it in our woodcarvers class. Great tool after it is sharpened. Gives great results for beginners.
Be careful this product doubled in price since I bought it last november!Wonder if it is because we are recommended to buy this kit?

Drudge had a screaming headline on this midday Monday. And the Gateway Pundit piece has this right, Fox News did bury the lede. They leave almost to the bottom of the story the fact that bodies were discovered floating in the Rio Grande? How many bodies? How young? How did they get there? Where are they from. How many more are there?
I'm among those who believe the Obama Administration knew his "Dream Act" executive order would lead to this type of border rush, hoping it would force Republicans on immigration reform. And if it wasn't be design, at best it's gross incompetence. Where is the outrage?

Holidaymakers looking for some Caribbean sunshine on one of the smaller quieter islands should visit Vieques. As one of the islands of Puerto Rico, Vieques is a beautiful place with many things for visitors to see and do. Here visitors will find numerous different places to stay including self catering accommodation, villas and holiday homes.
The island of Vieques is a fantastic destination for holidaymakers with beautiful sandy beaches and the warm Caribbean Sea providing an idyllic setting. As well as relaxing and sunbathing on the beaches, holidaymakers can enjoy various watersports such as swimming, scuba diving, snorkelling and fishing. The magnificent nature trails on the island can be explored by cycling and hiking. Horseback riding tours are also available taking visitors along the beaches and inland trails of Vieques. In addition to this, visitors can take driving tours that provide another way of seeing the island's sights. The island has many wonderful restaurants, pubs and cafes serving delicious food ranging from all American burgers to traditional Puerto Rican cuisine. Self catering holidaymakers will also be able to purchase provisions from local shops and markets.
Holidaymakers staying on the island of Vieques will find many fascinating places of interest such as the Fortin Conde de Mirasol. This is a fort built by the Spanish in the 19th century, which now serves as a museum. The US Navy closed off much of the island for 60 years and their presence can be recounted at sites such as the Underground U.S Navy Bunkers and the wreckage of the Navy Destroyer USS Killen. Faro de Vieques is a historic lighthouse on the island well worth a visit, as is Faro de Puerto Ferro. Both were first lit in 1896. The island's National Wildlife Refuge features beaches, lagoons, mangrove, wetlands and upland forested areas. Visitors may see endangered species here such as the Brown Pelican and Antillean Manatee.
The climate stays warm throughout the year with average highs of about 90 degrees Fahrenheit between June and September. The coolest time is January and February when average highs are still 83 degrees and the lows about 70 degrees Fahrenheit. February and March are generally the driest months with an average of 2.2 inches of rainfall. Meanwhile May is the wettest month with an average of 6 inches of rain.
Holidaymakers staying in on Vieques can fly to Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU) near to San Juan in Puerto Rico and get a connecting flight to Antonio Rivera Rodríguez Airport (VQS) on Vieques. Visitors can rent a car from several firms on the island. Flights arrive at San Juan from several international airports including Frankfurt (FRA), London-Gatwick (LGW), Los Angeles (LAX), Madrid (MAD) and New York (JFK) amongst others.

A Miu Miu Flashback Courtesy Of Flare
We've been having a field day with all the new September glossies, and flipping through the latest issue of Flare (one of our favorite Canadian fashion publications), we noticed a beauty editorial that immediately transported us to the Miu Miu Fall '12 show. Back in March, Pat McGrath went for a retro vibe, tracing around the models' eyes with blue and white face paint, then topping it off with disklike crystals and a pastel pout. Tearing a page right out of McGrath's book, makeup artist Greg Wencel achieved a similar effect on up-and-coming model Amanda Nimmo for Flare's recent spread. It's a bold look to be sure—one that should arguably be limited to the runways, magazines, and maybe Cirque du Soleil. Who's version do you prefer: McGrath's or Wencel's? Let us know below.

The Calgary Stampeders have signed import defensive back Keon Raymond to a two-year contract extension.
Raymond, 31, started 15 regular-season games for the Stamps in 2013, racking up 51 tackles. He also returned two kickoffs for 79 yards including a 61-yarder.
"Keon is a reliable and versatile player who has been a key member of our defence for many seasons," said Stampeders head coach and general manager John Hufnagel. "He's an important part of the Stampeders both on and off the field and I'm pleased that he has chosen to sign an extension to remain in Calgary."
In 88 career regular-season games for Calgary, Raymond has recorded 250 tackles and eight sacks with 15 interceptions. He has five career touchdowns — three on interceptions and two on fumble returns.
"I've been so blessed for the time I have spent in Calgary so far and I'm happy to continue my career with the Stampeders," said Raymond. "I have the best teammates I could ever hope for and the support of Stampeders fans is always tremendous. Calgary is home for me and my family and I'm looking forward to the new season and another opportunity to get to the Grey Cup."

Is This Name Off-Limits for Boys?
- Reece Fan
The name Reece is certainly heard on girls today, so I can understand why some people would think that makes it "a girl's name." In past generations, androgyny was the touch of death for boys' names. As soon as a name started to tip toward the girls' side, parents of boys would abandon it.
Today, though, the world of unisex names is a lot more fluid. Popular name styles often rise up the boys' and girls' popularity charts simultaneously and there's no predicting whether they will tip male or female, or stay in even balance. What's more, a modern name's gender identity can be a game of inches -- or rather, letters.
A young Jalen today is most likely a boy; a young Jaelyn, pronounced the same, is most likely a girl. A Ryliegh is predictably female, while a Riley could be either sex. And despite what your friends tell you, most young Reeces are boys...but thanks to actress Reese Witherspoon, most young Reeses are girls. The feminine-leaning Reese is the more common spelling.
Does that make Reece/Reese "a girl's name"? I wouldn't say so. If you hear the name, you really can't make a guess at the individual's sex. The sound and style remain androgynous, and close to trendy boys' names like Chase and Bryce.
If it's that sound that attracts you rather than the written look of the name, you may be in luck. There's a secret weapon available: the Welsh original Rhys, which remains a reliably masculine classic.
Since you're spelling it Reece I think you're fine! (Even with the Reese spelling I wouldn't rule it out.) The hype about boys with unisex names having all kinds of problems is exaggerated IMO (coming from a guy with such a name himself!). Of course you may have the same issues with people unsure of the bearer's gender that boy's names on girls create, but nothing too terrible IMO.
My brother in law is Reese, nickname for Maurice.
Go with Rhys. The other two, Reese and Reece, sound like the sort of nonsense names people give girls to be "cute". Rhys is a more solid, serious name.
Both Reese and Reece are surnames. So this is just another surname as first name to me, and is unisex.
Unisex names have been used for years, and I agree with Kelly. It's not the big deal people sometimes make it out to be.
I disagree that Reese and Reece are surnames-as-given names and therefore unisex. They're English spellings of Welsh Rhys, which is a masculine name.
Would you consider Austin or Lewis to be unisex? They're used as surnames.
It sounds masculine to me - I mean, I thought Reese Witherspoon had a man's name? Like Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz.
I don't think people are as hung up on the whole girl name vs boy name thing any more.
Anyway, if you were worried, just spell it Rhys.
If you want it recognized as male only, go with Rhys. If you don't care, stay with Reece. I personally think it doesn't matter and you should use the spelling you prefer.
Reese Witherspoon's full name is actually Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon (Reese is her mother's maiden name).
I think it's perfectly unisex. I prefer Rhys for a boy, personally. I think it looks more masculine than Reese or Reece.
For me, the fact that I still think of it as a surname-turned-given-name still keeps it usable for both. I would not bat an eye at a boy or girl names Reece/Reese.
My niece is Reese, and my sister and brother in law are not AT ALL the kind of people that give their children "nonsense names". For them, it had family connections. Rhys is no more "solid" than Reece or Reese. It's a great name, regardless of spelling. :)
There are two children named Reese at my daughter's preschool... both are boys.
I associate the name Reese with one of the brothers on Malcolm in the Middle, so to me it's completely male, despite the fact that I know a little girl with that middle name.
I was going to suggest, as the Name Lady did at the end, to use the Welsh spelling Rhys if you're really that worried about it. It's on my name list, and we don't have any Welsh heritage, just a love of the country.
Girls are stealing all of our names!
I'm married to a Reese who does curse Reese Witherspoon every time he receives a call asking to talk to Miss Reese. I think that Reese is stuck firmly in the unisex camp with Rece Davis on ESPN and Reese Hoffa (the Olympic Shotputter) wearing the name just as well as Ms. Witherspoon.
For what it's worth, I think Reece is definitely a boys' name, and the Witherspoons gave their daughter a boys' name. But if you worry about him getting teased, then go ahead and use Rhys. It'll mean having to color in one less bubble on those computerized test answer sheets anyway, and less wear and tear on all those innocent and overworked number 2 pencils.
I really do think of Reese/Reece as a surname turned first name. Also, I think of it as solidly unisex. I don't mean to offend anyone, but as for the Welsh name, I'd avoid it unless you have a strong Welsh connection or really just love it. Until this post I'd never heard of it and would've pronounced it "Rice" had I just read it on a class list. But I guess that just shows I'm less culturally aware than I thought.
I think it's a beautiful name for either gender. Whenever I picture a Reese they are either beautiful or handsome. When I was a kid my best friend told me her baby sister would be named Reese and I said, "Reese's Pieces?" Her response was, "That's what I said!"
I love the spelling Rhys for a boy.
Only reec/ses I've known were boys... 1 a first name, another a last. classmates. I'm 29 for age reference.
I feel that Reece is quite masculine and you should have no concerns about using it. To the Anony-mouse who called Reese and Reece "nonsense names", don't know what you're talking about, as both Reese and Reece have long histories as surnames. Jerzibella is a nonsense name. Amberelle is a nonsense name. Galadriel is a nonsense name. Reece is not. Please note the distinction.
My cousin's name is Rhys, the traditional Welsh spelling of the name. I think it's masculine and a great name.
One of Malcolm's brothers on Malcolm in the Middle was named Reece. Not that a lot of people remember the show, but it's something else to point to :)
tiktok - love your comment about nonsense names and you've totally got it covered - I agree with you about such nonsense names and don't see why people think they have to come up with something so different and then get all upset when they're called on it.
We named our daughter a particular name, spelled a particular way and got asked if she was named after a famous singer - whose name by the way is not spelled the same as our daughters...Hello, do you even pay attention to how a name is spelled or are you only partially listening?!
Our daughter is actually named after a favored uncle and shares my mother-in-law's middle name. We made sure no one else in the family had/has used her middle name - we got lucky.
Anyway, if one wants to go beyond the scope of what's considered 'normal' I believe it is best to be armed with both knowledge of the name (i.e., it's meaning) and perhaps have an adorable cover story to explain the uniqueness (like we do) and make sure it explains why it is distinct, different, diverse, and totally acceptable as is, either for a boy or a girl.
Personally, I think it's a big mistake choosing a girls name for a boy or an androgynous name for a child. It's confusing for people and it saddles the child for life.
One of my friends just had a baby boy a few months ago and his name is Reece. I never even thought of it as being too girly. Also she gets compliments on it all the time :) If you like go with it!
Pamela S: the Witherspoons gave their daughter the mother's maiden name as a second middle name. It is not her first name. Lots of people have their mother's maiden name as their middle name.
Call me "D": I've been asked before if I was named after a certain actress, despite actually being a year older than her! People just don't pay attention.
Yeah, Reece can be taken as a boy name. Though many girls have been named Reece, but still it does have some boyish sound. There are many names which you can see fit for both genders, like Ellery for an example.
I know two "Dylan Reece" children, one is a boy and one is a girl.
Ha ha, I'm 37 years old and Galadriel is my middle name! I actually went to high school with a few others with Tolkien-inspired names. It was a trend in the mid 1970s. Nonsense or not, I get a lot of compliments.
I've always thought of Reece as a boy's name actually. I LOVE the Rhys spelling - very masculine.

Please don't be perfect!Posted: December 20, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized 1 Comment
This post was also published today on Boston.com's Global Business Hub
There's a lot of pressure on you when you're an opera singer. Every note must be sung perfectly in tune, every syllable pronounced perfectly as if you were fluent in the language, every facial expression carefully crafted to match the words. Even though you are human, your audience expects a super-human performance every single time you sing.
While my operatic training gave me great preparation for being a public speaker, I have realized that there's a major difference between opera and public speaking. OK, as you can imagine there are many differences between opera and public speaking, but I'd like to focus on just one.
In public speaking, you don't have to be perfect.
The audience doesn't expect a super-human speech. They don't want to see a brilliant dramatic monologue that makes them feel like they are at the theater. They don't want to see an actor performing on stage.
In public speaking, the audience wants to see you as a real person, even if you have a few um's or ah's. They want to feel like they get to know you personally through your speech and they want to feel like, if they came up to you after the speech, you would be that same passionate person off stage. Public speaking is about being you at your best, whether you're in front of 2 people or 2,000 people.
Of course, this is not an excuse to just wing it! It takes a lot of practice to "be natural." Some of the most important elements to preparing a speech are: researching your audience in advance, crafting your speech around the message you want the audience to walk away with, and incorporating personal examples or stories that both reinforce your point and help the audience get to know you. It's also important to practice using hand gestures, eye contact, and vocal variety to make your speech come alive. These are all tools we use naturally when we hold a conversation with someone, but when we stand nervously in front of an audience, we often forget to use them. We freeze.
Once you practice enough to be more comfortable with your material and your delivery, then you can let your natural energy and passion for your subject take control. At the end of the day, that's what people will remember. And if you do that, ironically, it will be a great performance.
Allison M. Shapira teaches public speaking in the Harvard Kennedy School's Communication Program and to entrepreneurs, diplomats, politicians, and nonprofit leaders from around the world. She is also a Boston World Partnerships Connector and a trained opera singer.
One Comment on "Please don't be perfect!"
[…] speaking is not about being perfect, as I've written about in a previous post; it's about being authentic and passionate and conveying a message. If you know your material […]

Every dollar spent on policiatl campaign adds should be matched with a dollar spent to help a charity.
With the billions of dollars spent this last presidential campaign I thought what if all that money has gone directly to a cause or straight to reduce the national deficit. Every two years we are inundated with political ads. This is a great opportunity to really serve the nation and local communities. There should be a law stating that for every dollar spent in a campaign the match dollar must be contributed to a cause in the location of the candidate. (school, city, state, government etc.) I would future propose that half of that dollar would be for a cause directly helping children and youth. This would help these candidates really serve the people they are representing.
