I think it's a matter of fact that since the first moment a player realizes that he or she can interact with someone of the opposite sex romantically within the game, things get hairy. I had my fair amount of dealing with sex and sexuality in my games, for example:
- a female player of mine had a female character. She bought a special d30 die to decide which day of the month she has menstruation, accepting penalties on strength, constitution and charisma on that day.
- typically, sizes of male or female attributes are decided with home-made recipes and thrown at character creation time. I had a (male) player whose (female) character specifically researched an enchantment to increase her breast size.
- various stats are used for mating and flirting purposes. Typically, Charisma or abilities (such as grades in entertain (sexuality) ). In some cases, these points are central in the development of a character (e.g. I had a very beautiful female rogue/spy and used her sex-appeal to her personal gain).
- rules for fertility and pregnancy. How long is the pregnancy period for an elf/elf, elf/human, orc/human... and let's not even think about genasi/human or dragon/human. What is the probability for abortion in case of massive damage or various saving-throw conditions (poison, sickness)
There is a book, non official from WoTC as far as I understand, the Book of Erotic Fantasy specifically made to deal with sex and sexuality, but I never had the chance to take a look at it.
My questions are:
- How do you deal with in-game sexuality, and why ? Please note that I am not referring to useless sexually-oriented discussion "just for laughs". I am referring to romance and sexual encounters that change and develop the character, eventually providing him a family, marriage, frustration, or personal strategic gain.
- Do you have home-made rules for any of the above ? Could you share these rules ?
For example, my gamemaster decided that a pregnancy of an elf is 7 years. This kicked my character into retirement for this time, allowing frustration to grow due to abandonment from the husband and father of the child (a PC human paladin with more interest in recovering an artifact than to stay with family), and allowing an old enemy to come back. This defined the premises for a new campaign, and provided an important backstory to both my character and the character of the husband. This new campaign brought my character from 14th level to 20th level, and allowed the husband to reach a semi-divine level. Yes, my gamemaster rocks.

L'Auberge Seaside September Soiree: Ashley & Jason
Every so often all the elements come together for a jaw-dropping-picture-perfect wedding. The weather cooperates, everyone is on time, the kids are well behaved, the photographer is amazing, and the sunset is epic. After months of planning every little detail, Ashley and Jason walked down the aisle on the last day of September and officially began one of my favorite weddings of all-time.
From the wagon of flower girls to the handmade favors, there's no way to summarize in words all the cuteness that is wrapped up in this day. Instead of my attempting to write about it, go spend some time on Jennifer Dery's blog for a fresh taste of a San Diego fall wedding....

No. 34: Pittsburgh
By Paul Myerberg // Jul 31, 2011
A brief timeline. On Dec. 4, Pittsburgh ends the regular season with a win over Cincinnati. On Dec. 7, athletic director Steve Pederson fires Dave Wannstedt after six years, 42 wins and the program's best three-year stretch in three decades. On Dec. 16, after a week of hand-wringing over the Pederson-led coaching search, Pittsburgh hired former Miami (Ohio) coach Mike Haywood. On Dec. 31, Haywood was arrested for alleged domestic abuse. On Jan. 1, Pittsburgh fired Haywood. Haywood lasted 16 days, which is 10 days longer than the Six-Day War but still one of the shortest tenures in F.B.S. history. Cue the hand-wringing, round two. On Jan. 11, Pittsburgh hired Tulsa's Todd Graham, ending a coaching search that should have never occurred in the first place. If it was going to occur, however, at least the Panthers made the most of their second chance.

Last year's prediction
Why here? Why No. 29 and not, say, around No. 15, where Pittsburgh ended last season? I understand your puzzlement. Bear with me as I attempt to explain this point: Pittsburgh can still win the Big East. Getting West Virginia at home is key, with that game again going far towards determining the conference champion. What does Pittsburgh have to worry about? Well, not that much — this is still a borderline Top 25 team, one that clearly stands within the top three team in the Big East. Still, the lack of a proven quarterback is a concern. So is the interior of the offensive line; the interior of the defensive line will also break in new starters, but that's far less of a worry. The Panthers must find two new starters at cornerback: it will be enormous for this defense if Imoru can step up immediately. All told, while I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see the Panthers take the Big East, the handful of new starters and a difficult non-conference schedule will make it difficult for this team to match last season's win total.
2010 recap
In a nutshell So Pittsburgh was still pretty good, at least by the standards governed by the laws of reason. Even if you consider last year's Panthers a disappointment, acknowledge the fact that the 27 wins over three years was the program's finest stretch play of in three decades. The one man who makes the decisions, however, felt otherwise: athletic director Steve Pederson used Pittsburgh's three-game slide in the win column as rationale for dismissing Wannstedt, who seemed more than happy to spend the remainder of his coaching career at his alma mater. Was Wannstedt the best coach in the country, let alone the Big East? Nope. Was he a good coach, one who would at least have the Panthers competing for a B.C.S. berth each season? I think so. But last year was a bit disappointing, to be honest.
High point A 45-14 win at Syracuse on Oct. 16, a victory that — at the time — seemed to contain a bold statement: Pittsburgh is the best team in the Big East. It didn't last, but the win over the Orange stood as the Pittsburgh's finest of the conference season. Pittsburgh played inspired football in its bowl win over Kentucky, holding the Wildcats to only 10 points in one-sided victory.
Low point On the day after Thanksgiving, Pittsburgh suffered the loss that cost Wannstedt his job. It's one thing to lose by 25 points to rival West Virginia in the Backyard Brawl; it's quite another to do so at home, as the Panthers did in late November.
Tidbit Pittsburgh's 27 wins since 2008 is the third-most over a three-year, stand-alone span — meaning no overlaps — in program history. The Panthers won 33 games under Jackie Sherrill from 1979-81, going 11-1 each year; and won 29 from 1975-77 under Johnny Majors, going a perfect 12-0 during a national title-winning 1976 season. There have been better three-year spans, such as Pittsburgh's 26-0 mark under Pop Warner from 1915-17, but in terms of wins, Wannstedt was doing better than Walt Harris, Johnny Majors (Part II), Paul Hackett, Mike Gottfried and Foge Fazio, his predecessors over the 25 years between his hire and Sherrill's departure for Texas A&M.
Tidbit (SEC edition) Does any team outside the South dominate the SEC quite like Pittsburgh? After last year's bowl win over Kentucky, the Panthers are 9-1-2 all-time against college football's premier conference, and yes, ignore the fact that the remaining eight victories came before Steve Spurrier was coaching at Duke, let alone Florida. The only SEC program to beat Pittsburgh was South Carolina, which did so in 1984, though the Panthers hold a 3-1 edge over the Gamecocks. Pitt is 0-0-1 against Florida, tying the Gators in 1977; 3-0-1 against Georgia; and 2-0 against Tennessee.

4. Walt Garrison (1966-74).
5. Marion Barber (2005-10).
Todd Graham (East Central University '87), entering his first season. Graham compiled a 36-17 mark over four seasons at Tulsa, winning at least 10 games three times and playing for the Conference USA title twice, in 2007 and 2008. His Golden Hurricane took a nice step forward last fall after a 5-7 finish in 2009, Graham's first losing record over a coaching career that includes a single season, 2006, at Rice. That year couldn't have gone much better: the Owls went 7-6, earning the program's first bowl bid in 45 years. A 10-win 2007 campaign marked a triumphant return to Tulsa for Graham, who served as Steve Kragthorpe's assistant head coach and defensive coordinator from 2003-5. The Golden Hurricane defense made a distinct improvement in each of Graham's seasons, improving from 109th nationally in total defense in 2002 to 60th in 2003 and 40th in his final season. The pass defense ranked among the top 25 each campaign, perhaps a result of Graham's experience as a two-time all-N.A.I.A. defensive back at East Central University in the mid-1980s. Before arriving in Tulsa in 2003, Graham coached under Rich Rodriguez at West Virginia from 2001-2, first as linebackers coach, before taking on the co-defensive coordinator job his second season. He was a vital part of a 9-4 2002 season, the first of Rodriguez's five straight seasons of tremendous play with the Mountaineers. I wrote heading into last summer that despite a slide in 2009, Graham would be an intriguing candidate for many B.C.S. conference openings if he could lift Tulsa back into the upper echelon of Conference USA. He did just that, and after Pittsburgh reopened its job search following Haywood's dismissal, Graham became a solid choice.
Tidbit (coaching edition) Graham's staff has a Tulsa, Michigan and Texas feel. He brought offensive line coach Spencer Leftwich, co-offensive coordinator Mike Norvell, defensive coordinator Keith Patterson and co-defensive coordinator and defensive line coach Paul Randolph along for the ride from Tulsa. He added Todd Dodge, a knowledgeable spread mind who was dismissed at North Texas midway through last season. Then there's this strange addition of several former Rich Rodriguez assistants at Michigan: tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator Tony Dews, secondary coach Tony Gibson and co-offensive coordinator and running backs coach Calvin Magee. Almost makes outside linebackers coach and special teams coordinator Randall McCray, formerly of Middle Tennessee State, feel like the odd man out.
Players to watch
The largest beneficiary of the change in offensive philosophy might not be starting quarterback Tino Sunseri, believe it or not, though Sunseri surely thanked his lucky stars the day he traded in ho-hum for no-huddle. As at Tulsa, Graham wants to mix things up offensively, balancing a potent passing game with one of the nation's most productive running games — as fast as possible, mind you, in an out of the huddle, running three plays for every two Pitt ran a year ago. So you can see why Pitt's excited, and you can see why Sunseri is very excited.
To answer the statement above, the largest beneficiary of the system change is Pittsburgh itself, of course, with a bored-to-tears fan base next in line. In terms of an individual or a position, I'm of mind to say that Ray Graham and Zach Brown will find life significantly easier than in the past. That's because there will be less pounding, more open space for this pair; that's the goal, at least. Graham officially takes over the lead back job from the since-departed Dion Lewis, who was not the same back in 2010 as he was in a breakout 2009 season. Graham was the team's best back, plain and simple: he was extremely productive, finishing the year with 922 yards rushing on a team-best 6.2 yards per carry. And he was missed when limited by injury, as illustrated during Pitt's season-opening loss to Utah. Graham is a wonderful fit in this system, and should have a monster year. A recent transfer from Wisconsin, Brown will provide experience to a backfield that seemed, prior to his arrival, to be lacking depth.
Now, back to Sunseri. He wasn't great as a first-year starter, stumbling out of the gates a bit against Utah and struggling down the stretch, but I can't imagine Pittsburgh going anywhere else under center. Could the Panthers and Graham have a better fit for this system? Yes, and they will soon enough. For now, however, Pitt should take confidence in Sunseri's confidence; he's a senior with a year of experience under his belt, even if he was learning the offense from scratch during the spring. A year ago, Sunseri threw for 2,557 and 16 scores against 9 picks while completing 64.5 percent of his attempts — the latter total indicates his nice touch on intermediate routes, though Graham will want more from Sunseri on the deep ball. Look for Pitt to add a quarterback better suited for this attack — one with better running ability — but for now, the Panthers could do far worse than Sunseri.
The offensive needs to replace a pair of starters in Alex Karabin and Jason Pinkston, the latter one of the Big East's best left tackles. All eyes are on Pittsburgh's situation at tackle, therefore, though the Panthers have another very good one on the right side in senior Lucas Nix, a definite all-Big East selection. He's one of four senior starters up front, three of whom ended last season in the starting lineup: one is left tackle Jordan Gibbs, last year's starter for much of the year at right tackle, while Chris Jacobson moves inside from left guard to center, replacing Karabin. The fourth senior is Greg Gaskins, a part-time starter last fall who makes the transition from the right side to left guard, filling Jacobson's former spot. That leaves only right guard, a role currently inhabited by sophomore Cory King, though I suppose Ryan Turnley could step in if needed.
The Panthers need to replace Jon Baldwin, who left for the N.F.L. a year ahead of schedule, but that's not a huge concern. It's a concern, mind you, but Pitt can balance his departure with a pair of talented, lanky receivers in Mike Shanahan (43 catches for 589 yards) and Devin Street (25 for 318, 2 scores). Baldwin made the big plays, but it's not a stretch to say that Shanahan was Pitt's most consistent receiver last fall; his numbers will take a serious jump in this system if Graham and his offensive staff can fit a square peg — Sunseri — into a round hole. Street is one of several receivers whose roles will increase exponentially, not just because of Baldwin's departure but also because this new offense will have at least three receivers on the field at all times. Hopes are high that junior Cameron Saddler can make an impact despite missing time during the spring, as he's the sort of slighter, speedy, tough-to-catch receiver this offense covets. Proven depth is a real issue at receiver, as the Panthers will at least two or three yet-untested options to step up and fill out this depth chart. Graham didn't go after receivers very much during this latest recruiting cycle, though one signing, Darius Patton, may factor into the mix immediately; look for Pittsburgh to go after receivers in 2012. Junior Hubie Graham is the front-runner for the H-back spot used to great effect by this offense at Tulsa.
As on the offensive side of the ball, Pittsburgh will aim to get quicker on defense. This is done in two ways — more than two, but here's the primary pair: one, by getting faster players on the field, which is a no-brainer; and two, by installing a 3-4 base defense with a hybrid linebacker-end and a hybrid safety-linebacker, with, in a perfect world, potential game-changers at both spots. Finding that star hybrid linebacker-end was the easiest decision Graham and company had to make all spring.
Looking for a dark horse national award-winner come December? Try Brandon Lindsay (51 tackles, 17.5 for loss, 10 sacks), who may not be coming in under the radar but remains far too unknown outside the Big East. He won't put his hand in the dirt as often in 2011, rather standing up in that hybrid role, but don't think for a second that Lindsay won't remain one of the most productive pass rushers in college football. He'll do that and more, perhaps, showing his speed and athleticism in coverage and his strength against the run in his new role. Lindsay's a clear candidate for all-American honors in 2011. For now, I'm not sure whether to call him an end or a linebacker, so I'm dumping him in with the linebackers just to be safe — and, to be honest, because I'm making the defensive line the position to watch. But he's an end and a linebacker, all in one, and a great player to boot.
Changes will be felt at linebacker, where only one returning contributor, weak side linebacker Max Gruder (84 tackles), is ensure of retaining his starting role. But Pitt does return senior Greg Williams (64 tackles, 5.5 for loss), and while sophomore Bryan Murphy fared during the spring I don't think he'll unseat Williams in 2011. Shane Gordon will be an important piece of the puzzle, either as a starter or behind senior Tristan Roberts, another vital cog thanks to his ability to play either on the weak or the strong side. Then there's the hybrid safety-linebacker — the spur, in Pitt's new parlance — which will ask for speed, speed and more speed. There's a whole crop of youngsters fighting it out for that role, a few making the move from safety and others who might have been phased out of the previous system thanks to a lack of size. The options include sophomore Kevin Adams and redshirt freshmen Eric Williams and Todd Adams, with the latter back to full health after missing last season with a knee injury.
Junior free safety Jarred Holley is the star of the secondary: that's what 54 tackles and a team-best five picks will do, in addition to earning Holley all-Big East accolades. He headlines a defensive backfield that's heavy on experience, particularly at cornerback. Pitt has as many as five options to work with to find a starting pairing, beginning with returning starter Antwuan Reed (40 tackles, 1 interception). He's locked into a starting role, with Buddy Jackson, Saheed Imoru and K'Waun Williams among those battling for the second starting spot. The competition will be great for this secondary. Keep an eye on sophomore Jason Hendricks at bandit safety, a position that equates to strong safety in last year's defense. He started five times as a freshman.
Position battle(s) to watch
Defensive line The switch to the 3-4 will have a huge impact up front, as returning linemen transition to new roles and, by and large, the line takes on entirely new responsibilities. Some things won't change: the ends will still be asked to get to the quarterback, the interior tackle to hold up against the run, but the line as a whole will be more substance, less flash. It's a nice time to make the move, seeing that Pittsburgh must replace a pair of N.F.L.-caliber ends in Greg Romeus — though he barely played in 2010 — and Jabaal Sheard. Lindsay is one returning starter who will inhabit a new role, as noted. He'll spend some time with his hand on the ground, I'd think but Lindsay's hybrid role will seem him standing up as an outside linebacker of sorts more often than not. But he'll still be a major presence in the pass rush, especially on third down. And it says much about what Pittsburgh has up front that there is no lack of talent even with Romeus and Sheard out of the picture and Lindsay transitioning to a new role. The interior of the line is particularly strong: Pittsburgh brings back Myles Caragein (30 tackles, 4.5 for loss) and Chas Alecxih (57 tackles, 7.5 sacks), two seniors with experience, talent and the potential for even bigger things in 2011 — especially Alecxih, a former walk-on whose on-field development has been one of the best stories inside the program over the last few years. Depth along the interior of the line comes from a few intriguing youngsters, like Khaynin Mosley-Smith and Tyrone Ezell. Converted tackle Alex Donald has great size to play at 3-4 end, and while only a sophomore he should be considered the favorite to round out the starting lineup. He's not the only option, however. Pitt could go with senior Anthony Hargrove, another big-bodied end, or perhaps another sophomore, T.J. Clemmings — he's enormous, with the size to move inside on passing downs. There's a ton of depth here, not to mention a promising blend of experienced seniors and talented underclassmen. This line is one to watch.
Game(s) to watch
A number of marquee games outside of Big East play. Iowa comes on the road, making that game a tough one for the Panthers, but Notre Dame and Utah come to Heinz Field. Perhaps Todd Graham can lead Pitt into West Virginia and win by 25 points. Which offense will run more plays that Friday, Holgorsen's Mountaineers or Graham's Panthers?
Season breakdown & prediction
In a nutshell You like a lot about Pittsburgh. First and foremost, you like the Graham hire despite the fact that he wasn't Pederson's top choice; in fact, you may like him all the more because he wasn't Pederson's hand-picked successor for Wannstedt, but rather the pick after his first pick. Bear with me: Pederson does many things well, but hiring football coaches doesn't seem to be one of them. So, in a strange way, perhaps the fact that Haywood flamed out so quickly and so memorably may end up being the best thing that could have happened to this program — outside of retaining Wannstedt in the first place, I should add. Back to this specific team: you like the backfield, the offensive line and the receiver corps' starting pair, though depth at the position is a concern. You love Lindsay and the defensive line, both in terms of its ability to get to the quarterback, its solid interior and very intriguing depth. So there's plenty to like, and Pittsburgh is nipping at West Virginia's heels as we prepare for the Big East in 2011. What's holding the Panthers back? Not that much, really, but enough to make you think twice about making this team the conference favorite heading into September. Sunseri is not built for this system, to be blunt, and while he has nice experience the offense won't take off until Graham finds a quarterback better suited for running this attack. The back seven of the defense isn't great, though we should include Lindsay as a piece of the linebacker corps, at least in part. And you worry about whether this team can fit Graham's philosophy on each side of the ball: this team is built for a pro-style, 4-3 system, so look for some growing pains this fall. But there are seniors to help bridge the learning curve, which will help, and the program has a fine coach in Graham to help seal things together throughout the season. Pittsburgh's going to be good, like 8-4 good, but I think it'll take a year to get everything in order.
Dream season The offense clicks in September and only improves as the season moves on, leading the Panthers to a 10-2 finish and a Big East title.
Nightmare season It takes Graham and the new staff one year to get everything locked into place. Pittsburgh will be stronger in 2012, but this fall isn't pretty: 4-8, 2-5 in the Big East.

Quite the fall from National Champs to #33
Is the answer to the question the Auburn Tigers. There is a maximum security prison in New York and there is a town with the same name in New Hampshire.
Auburn is next.
Wow, I can't believe Oregon lost to Auburn in the natty…and that Auburn is going to take this big a tumble in the rankings.
Marion Barber over the great Robert Newhouse? Heresy.
I bet Auburn ends the season ranked lower than #33.
Also, why do you call the hirings of the Tonys Gibson and Dews, and Calvin Magee strange? All of them coached at WVU at the same time Graham did. He was going with those he knew, and who know local recruiting– it seems smart.

Airhead's® new 12 Volt Hi Pressure Air Pump w/ Pressure Release Valve produces 3 times the pressure of other 12 volt air pumps. Adapters are provided for all popular valves including stem, Boston, Leafield, Bravo, Halkey Roberts and more. A removable pressure-release valve limits the output to 1.4 psi, the perfect inflation pressure for towables. Hook this powerful pump directly to your car, truck or boat battery with the alligator clips connected to a 10 foot power cord – it draws too many amps to plug into a cigarette lighter. Volume: 410 liters/min. Draws 28 amps.

A storied, glory-filled past, consistently contending current team, and a typically excellent farm system building for the future make the Cardinals perhaps baseball's model franchise. This year is no different than most for the Cards who are in the thick of the race in baseball's toughest division, where St. Louis, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh are all likely to make the postseason. But will the Cardinals have to appear in the dreaded Wild Card playoff game again? That question is serious motivation for the team, as if they needed any more. Yadier Molina was probably the leading candidate for NL MVP until his injury of late, but he's still the heart and soul of this team.
Besides Molina, a quick glance at the lineup would have you believe it's all about veteran power hitters Matt Holliday and Carlos Beltran. But in reality it's an up-and-down solid lineup of high contact rate hitters who spray balls all over the diamond. David Freese, Matt Carpenter, Allen Craig, and Jon Jay live up to that reputation most significantly. So while they're not hitting three home runs per game they are still leading the NL in runs scored through solid contact, walks, and hitting with runners in scoring position. It seems like every pitcher they call up begins his career with seven shutout innings. That Cardinals farm system is so deep, even the unheralded prospects are always Major League ready. Prospects Joe Kelly and Shelby Miller are just the latest to step up in the ridiculous Cardinals pitching staff. And by staying young, they're staying cheap. Edward Mujica, Kelly, Trevor Rosenthal, and Seth Maness make up the sturdy bullpen. As always it's a playoff atmosphere at Busch Stadium where 40,000 of some of the most loyal fans in the world file in each night. Gold Coast Tickets has the best selection on Cardinals tickets!

This study is provided by ICPSR. ICPSR provides leadership and training in data access, curation, and methods of analysis for a diverse and expanding social science research community.
American Time Use Survey (ATUS), 2003-2008, Multi-Year Data (ICPSR 24943)
Principal Investigator(s): United States Department of Labor. Bureau of Labor Statistics
The American Time Use Survey (ATUS) collects information on how people living in the United States spend their time. This multi-year dataset contains data on the amount of time that people spent doing various activities in the years 2003 through 2008, such as paid work, child care, religious activities, volunteering, and socializing. Part 1, Respondent and Activity Summary File, contains demographic information about respondents and a summary of the total amount of time they spent doing each activity that day. Part 2, Roster File, contains information about household members and nonhousehold children under the age of 18. Part 3, Activity File, includes additional information on activities in which respondents participated, including the location of each activity and the total time spent on secondary child care. Part 4, Who File, includes data on who was present during each activity. Part 5, ATUS-CPS File, contains demographic and occupational data on respondents and members of their household collected during their participation in the Current Population Survey (CPS). Demographic variables include sex, age, race, ethnicity, marital status, education level, income, employment status, occupation, citizenship status, country of origin, labor union membership, and household composition.

Scope of Study
Subject Terms: child care, domestic responsibilities, eating habits, employment, family life, family work relationship, housework, leisure, lifestyles, quality of life, recreation, social interaction, social life, time utilization, work, working hours
Geographic Coverage: United States
Time Period:
- 2003--2008
Date of Collection:
- 2003--2008
Unit of Observation: individual
Universe: All residents aged 15 and over who were living in households in the United States, with the exception of active military personnel and people residing in institutions such as nursing homes and prisons.
Data Types: survey data
Data Collection Notes:
The data available for download are not weighted and users will need to weight the data prior to analysis.
The data file in Part 1 contains the linked Respondent and Activity Summary files. The CASEID variable was added for use with online analysis.
Multi-year files were not available for the Call History, Case History, Trips and Replicate Weights files. Please refer to the 2003-08 ATUS Data Dictionary for information about differences between the multi-year and single-year ATUS files.
The activity code variables in Part 1 are preceded by the letter "T" and include a six-digit activity classification code. Since activity codes changed somewhat between 2003 and 2008, the multi-year data files use activity codes that appear in the 2003-08 ATUS Activity Lexicon.
The following variables were converted from character to numeric: TUCASEID, HRHHID, HRHHID2, TEHRUSLT, TEHRUSL1, and TEHRUSL2. The formats of the variables TUBWGT and TUFNWGTP were adjusted to fit the width of the values present in this variable. Value labels for unknown codes were added in variables TURETOT, PEIO2ICD, PEFNTVTY, PEMNTVTY, and PENATVTY.
Published tables and charts showing time-use estimates for major activity categories, selected detailed activities, and selected demographic characteristics are available via the American Time Use Survey Web site.
The American Time Use Survey (ATUS) was conducted by the United States Census Bureau.
Sample: The ATUS sample was drawn from households that had completed their final month of interviews for the Current Population Survey (CPS). Households were selected to ensure that estimates could be made across major demographic groups. One individual from each selected household was chosen to participate in the ATUS, and this person was interviewed only once about his or her time use. Please refer to the User Guide for additional information on sampling.
Weight: The data contain weight variables that should be used in analyzing the data. Users need to apply weights when computing estimates with the ATUS data because simple tabulations of unweighted ATUS data produce misleading results. The multi-year ATUS-CPS, Respondent, and Activity Summary files contain the ATUS statistical weighting variable TUFNWGTP generated using the 2006 ATUS statistical weighting method. Researchers wishing to generate standard errors for multi-year estimates should take care to use the single-year replicate weights generated using the 2006 ATUS weighting method. For more information please refer to the ATUS User Guide.
Mode of Data Collection: computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI)
Extent of Processing: ICPSR data undergo a confidentiality review and are altered when necessary to limit the risk of disclosure. ICPSR also routinely creates ready-to-go data files along with setups in the major statistical software formats as well as standard codebooks to accompany the data. In addition to these procedures, ICPSR performed the following processing steps for this data collection:
- Created variable labels and/or value labels.
- Created online analysis version with question text.
- Checked for undocumented or out-of-range codes.

Aegean Airlines A3
Aegean Airlines began scheduled passenger operations in May 1999, following the liberalisation of the Greek domestic market. The strategy of the company at its inception and to date is to provide full service, premium quality short and medium haul services.
In December 1999, expanding rapidly, Aegean bought Air Greece while in 2001 the company merged with another Greek carrier Cronus Airlines, a move that also marked its entry in international routes. Following its increasing acceptance by its customers Aegean became by 2005 the leading carrier on domestic routes. In 2005 Aegean reached an agreement with Lufthansa to become its partner in Greece. After four years of profitable operation Aegean was listed on the Athens stock exchange in July 2007, raising additional funds to support for fleet and network development. In 2008 through its gradual expansion of its international network, and its consistent delivery of high quality services Aegean became the largest Greek airline by passenger numbers. On June 30, 2010 Aegean joined Star Alliance.
Another important milestone was in 2005 when Aegean reached an agreement with Airbus to fully renew its fleet with new A320 family aircraft. The fleet renewal and improvement process facilitated network expansion and also contributes to the airline's customer appeal in terms of punctuality, service and comfort. Aegean took the first deliveries in 2007 while since May 2011 the company operates for the first time in its history with a homogeneous fleet consisting of 29 Airbus (A319, A320, A321) with an average age of 3 years.
AEGEAN was named "Best Regional Airline Europe" at the SKYTRAX 2011 World Airline Awards and was the runner-up in the "World's Best Regional Airline" category, in "Airline Staff Service Excellence for Europe" category as well as in "Best Airline Southern Europe" category. In its 12 year history, Aegean has been awarded six times by the European Regions Airline Association (ERA). Furthermore, the company has been repeatedly awarded by the Athens International Airport as the greatest contributor to the airport's passenger volume increase.

This week's 14-inning marathon between the Tigers and the Seattle Mariners kept diehard fans up well past 2 a.m. Due to a quirk in the schedule, Detroit plays its last night game on West Coast tonight against the L.A. Angels. (Ted S. Warren/Associated Press)
Anaheim, Calif. - Some of you like them a lot.
The house is quiet; there's no competition for the best TV; the night is yours.
You grab your Tigers' hat and whatever jersey you want to wear, not knowing if it's called a shirt or a jersey, and you plunk yourself down on the couch, with three hours of Tigers' baseball ahead of you.
Easy trip to the fridge.
Easy to all other necessary destinations.
A pillow nearby if the game isn't close - because you just might doze.
Bring it on, a Friday night from the West Coast. Or any Tigers' night game from the West Coast.
But guess what's arrived already? Their last night game from Seattle, Oakland and/or Anaheim this season.
That's right — the last one. On April 19, no less.
Saturday's game at Angels Stadium is a day game — as is Sunday's game. Being the experienced fan you are, you knew that Sunday's game from Anaheim would be a day game. You weren't counting on it to be anything but.
A day game on Saturday, though? Everybody in the house is going to be watching it, instead of just you.
And maybe one of the kids will have some friends over.
You'll be sitting on one of those uncomfortable chairs from the kitchen instead of the big easy.
Manager Jim Leyland, however, couldn't be happier that this already is the last regular-season night game in Pacific Daylight Time.
His clock ticks best on Eastern and Central time. He's comfortable with the Detroit's, Chicago's and Pittsburgh's of baseball.
Nothing against California, mind you. He likes the sunshine of Anaheim, the shopping of San Francisco and the personality of Seattle.
Don't know if he likes the salmon of Seattle, but have never heard him say anything against it.
Those cities aren't home, though.
But more than that, they are not his team's home — or within easy reach of it.
Leyland doesn't judge a schedule by his own likes and dislikes, of course. He's not happy the Tigers will be done with the West Coast as of Sunday because the days here feel three hours different.
He's happy because the farthest point of the travel will be over — and because there will be less wear and tear on his players that way.
The difficulty of any team's schedule is relative, obviously. The shortest trip for the Seattle Mariners would be one of the longest for the Tigers.
And heaven help Leyland if he had grown up wearing skates instead of spikes. All those trips to Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver would have taken a toll on him.
But he can't be faulted if he prefers any season in which there are no visits to Arizona and Colorado, or if there no interleague stops in California in addition to what the Tigers encounter every year in American League travel.
Heck, the Tigers are going to be home next week with the longest trip facing them being the one that ends their season in Miami.
Leyland, of course, likes to say "I go where the plane goes" — as if it doesn't make any difference if the Tigers are playing in Cleveland or in the old, gray emptiness of Oakland.
Truth be told, it was pretty loud and festive in Oakland this year — with decent attendance even.
It's been said that the Tigers disappear to some extent when they play out west.
The night games don't start until after 10 p.m., Detroit time. If you're an early riser, you don't find out who won until you wake up in the morning.
So hopefully Friday night's game will be, or was, everything you wanted it to be.
Because, already, it's the last of its kind for 2013.
Regular season, that is.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"My Wedding Invitations were absolutely PERFECT. They truly reflected the theme and thoughts we wanted for our guests to begin to visualize of beginning of our dream coming true."
"This invitation is unique and entirely charming. The flowers on the front and back look like chalk drawings, which will be easy to replicate on chalk boards at our reception. In person, the invitation looks luxe and super personal - as if we had it designed just for us. We added text to the back at the invitation at no extra charge, which was a huge bonus. I'd highly recommend this design."
"We chose this design for our invites, response cards, thank you cards, stickers and direction cards and are very happy. We picked the pearl shimmer paper which gives the invite a lovely glow. We asked the designer to change some of the font and got our names and the venues name start with capital letters but they look stunning either way! Also had them sent from California to Australia within 4 days. Very happy, good work."
"The design is absolutely adorable. I got the shimmery paper and it looks super nice! I love the rustic romantic design w/ the purple flowers. Matched our color scheme nicely."
"The design of this card is elegant, romantic and vintage inspired which is why it captured my attention. I could not be happier with the product! The quality of the invitations are stunning. The customer service was not only helpful, but helped me choose different colors for the invitations. I had to change the layout of the card completely and the designers hit it right on the mark. Shipping was fast and delivered promptly. I highly recommend buying this invitation and using Paper Divas!"

Question-of-the-Day (Wednesday):
Which seems to be the longer, waiting for a bus, or the journey itself
You:re waiting on a corner with a blind guy who goes by the name T-Bone Johnny - an old-style dude in his 70s digs who is playing a guitarre with two strings. Mr. Bone is singing his best rendition of Teenie-weenie String Bikini. Also occupying space and time is a female member of the local chapter of Organized Tax-Free Street Labour, finishing 3:rd shift - a person with seven teeth in her mouth. And lastly, an elderly woman who was ashamed of the aforementioned, Sally Streetwalker, arrived some minutes ago, loaned her overcoat to cover up evidence that it was chilly outside, and is waiting with her miniature schnauzer. The schnauzer has an orange bow tied around its head, and is barking at you from its spot in the baby carriage.
dont forget the toothless crack whore eating cat food on a cracker and coughing up lumpy plasma which freezes on the cracked sidewalk.
are all these freaks getting on da bus?

It just bugs me that the length of time that a traffic light remains RED is directly proportional to the degree to which I am in a hurry. When I have all the time in the world, the light turns green as I approach the intersection. If I'm late for something (invariably this will be the ONE time my wife has to wait for ME, instead of vice versa), not only will it just be turning red as I approach, the intersection will mysteriously sprout railroad tracks, the gates will come down, and a 114-car train will pass through at 0.04 mph. Then it will back up and stop. Then once it proceeds again and the barriers go up, someone will run the intersection, there will be a horrific collision and then gridlock for an hour, and THEN, as the intersection is cleared, the cops there will pull me over to inform me that my right rear brake light is out and that's a $25 fine.
I hate it when that happens.
Re: Question-of-the-Day (Wednesday):
Bus! It waited for over nine hours to take the bus from Marianna, Florida to Dothan, Alabama. It is about an hour long drive between the two cities.
Similar problem, different venue at lunch today. I'm at the grocery store. It is not often that I qualify for the express lane, but today is one. (Four jars of PB, 3 8-roll packs of paper towels – mr. & mrs. hammy know how to have a good time!)
Two people in front of me. First one takes – literally - two minutes to get her money on the counter. She's old and God bless her and all, but damn – this is the Express line. Next person has one package of children's food of some kind. Turns out she doesn't want to buy this one – she wants someone to go find one of a different flavor. I'm dying here. You know, I have an employer and all who would like me back in the office sometime today. I was a bit agitated, but managed not to kill anyone.
i have zero patience. i mean zero. i move at a differant speed than almost every single person i come in contact with. i wouldnt want to be late to my own execution. i say im not in a hurry, im just economical, but im probably insane. i notice every moment im held up by people i want to kill. do you feel better bad hammy?
Actually, I think I handled it OK (no dead bodies, just entertained myself with the possibilities) and kept my blood pressure under control. Next time I'll buy more stuff so that I am forced into the faster lines.
Its late in the day and I chatting with my buds over here on the t&fn forums, someone responded to the Steroid Bill thread I revived (although no one has indicated what a witty bastard I am for coming up with those new links ), so yeah, I feel pretty good. Thank you for your concern.
What really bugs me is when the person ahead of me in the grocery store waits until the cashier has scanned everything before getting their check book out and begin writing the check...sorry mojo, but it's nearly always a woman! Also at the grocery store I get irritated when the cashier says, "Is that all for you today?", when you've unloaded your stuff...errr...Yes, that's why I'm standing here...
Partly because, as I almost always notice, women are almost exclusively the ones who actually write checks when shopping. Sometimes a real old guy, but it is my experience that guys use cards or cash.
basically life is 90% waiting for something incredible or fun to happen. ok 99 %. you could be on fire every secound but crack cocaine is really destructive. you end up stealing from people you like. so we wait and wait. and i have to tell you in the moments it took me to type this nothin of importance has occured. oh my god now im doin it to you! stealing time you can never get back with this rubbish.
well i did warn you, didnt i?
That's one of the many reasons I like U Scan. Most of the grocery stores in my area have them. Home Depot does also. You don't need to talk with anyone.
Me too. Except that I regularly have booze and you have to find the person to take the security device off and do the age verification thing
I love how i represent all womankind here!
No offense taken at all. I agree with you.
I live in the elderly capital of Canada and my neighbourhood is the elderly capital of this capital.
I seriously have to dodge moterized scooters, canes and walkers every time I walk down a street.
Old ladies here do not write cheques- they wait until all the groceries have been scanned then fumble in a big old bag for a tiny change purse. They slowly and carefully take out a wad of money and unroll each bill. Next we have the coins which must be brought close to the face for inspection.
I twitch and sigh and have to put my hands behond my back so as to keep from grabbing the god dammned purse and do it myself.
The problem is I look kind and patient and so that encourages them.
My family is under strict orders to watch for signs of this doddering on my part. I am to be summarily executed.
Epelle- your questions are very cool. I avoid answering them however!
