I have spent New Year's evening at home every year since my daughter was born eight years ago. This year my husband has bought tickets for a party with a group of our old friends, and he's really looking forward to it. I don't want to disappointment him, but I'm not entirely comfortable leaving my daughter home alone with a babysitter on New Year's. I don't want my daughter to think we don't want to spend this special time with her. Any time I try to bring it up, he brushes it off. Am I making too much of this?
New Years a Nuisance, West Vancouver
Yes, you're making too much out of it. We were always left with babysitters at New Year's ... and didn't think twice about it. This is classic helicopter parenting! Jim, Burnaby
This one's easy; have your New Year's celebration with your daughter early. Do the count down, party blowers and the whole nine yards, kiss her goodbye and go and have fun with your husband.
Candace, Vancouver
The fact you've asked the question "Am I making too much out of this" suggests you already have some awareness that your reaction is over and above the typical mild hesitation that comes with leaving a child with a sitter while you celebrate New Year's.
There isn't a parent among us that can't honestly admit to all kinds of overreactions, times when we're left wondering "where the heck did that come from!?" Overreactions usually come quite out of the blue, clouding our judgment and making it hard to decipher where our emotions end and our child begins.
It turns out, the answer to your parent trap is based in brain science; events during your parenting trigger implicit past experiences. Distress is unconsciously activating beyond what the situation dictates. But you are more in control than you know.
Solving this neurochemical calamity is well within reach, though, with a little self-examination and re-weaving your mindset.
Start by asking yourself, what does this fear stem from? What was your own experience of your parents during holiday events or otherwise?
You're afraid that your daughter will think you don't care - are you sometimes left feeling that people don't care about you? When did that feeling start? Once you find those answers you will have taken an important step toward separating your daughter's thoughts, feelings and needs from your own. By tuning in to self you can access key information allowing you to integrate your own history with greater perspective. You may find yourself better able to coordinate your own reactions more mindfully, emotionally separate and clear in your parenting.

Get Into the "Groovaloo"
Hip-Hop Dancers Stage Their Own Stories
By MARK BLANKENSHIP
Spend two seconds with a music video or a Gatorade commercial, and you'll see hip-hop dancing. Hoofers who pop and lock, flip and bounce, and freeze on the tips of their toes are an everyday part of the pop culture routine.
Seeing an ad, however, is not the same as understanding a movement, and that's why there's
Groovaloo Freestyle
, now playing at Union Square Theatre. A genre-bending spectacle that blends dance, spoken word, and original music, the show exists not only to wow audiences with hip-hop choreography, but also to bring them closer to the people who perform it.
Groovaloo Freestyle
stars the Groovaloos, a hip-hop dance troupe that formed in Los Angeles in 1999. They began as an informal group of friends, but eventually Bradley Rapier, who left Canada and medical school to become a dancer-choreographer, gave them an official identity. Soon after, they were performing at dance championships, in music videos, and on television shows.
But something was missing. "We had done a variety of performances in our style, but we wanted to give people a glimpse of what electrified us about the dance, about how it's affected our lives," Rapier says. He started writing a fictional show that would capture both the energy and the history of hip-hop dance. For research, he interviewed the other Groovaloos.
If you think that sounds like a hip-hop Chorus Line, then you're not alone. "We realized that we had all these common things in our stories," Rapier says. "Then I finally had that Michael Bennett moment of, 'Oh my gosh, these are really the stories that make this so important to me."
Working with director Danny Cistone, Rapier shaped the lives of eleven performers into
Groovaloo Freestyle
. There are sobering scenes (a dancer recalls getting shot), playful metaphors (robots try to make a dancer conform), and even a dance battle. "Obviously, it won't affect everyone like it did me, because not everyone is going to quit their lives to become a dancer," Rapier says. "But hopefully, it will give people an understanding of what this dance culture does for people."
One of the biggest hurdles has been explaining dance with words. The show doesn't have book scenes, but it does feature voiceovers and spoken word segments. "Creating those moments has been challenging because we can't overload people with voiceovers," Rapier says. "We have to trust that the audience will visually understand what we're saying, and of course, we have to tweak and twist what we want to say."
There's also the question of creating choreography that can be repeated night after night. Unlike, say, classical ballet, hip-hop dancing is rooted in improvisation and freestyle. If Rapier had choreographed rigid steps, they would have been easy to recreate, but they would have violated the spirit of the dance. "We can't allow only freestyle, because then you have no structure," Rapier says. "But one of the things behind street dance culture is, 'How do I freak you out?' How do I move my body in a way that you're not expecting?' If the audience can see it coming, then it's not exciting."
As a compromise, Rapier and Cistone created a flexible template that lets every performer do something unique. Rapier says, "They have to know the structure, and I might say, 'I need a 'wow' move here,' or 'Move across the floor here.' But I would never say, 'Do this exactly like this.' I'm saying, 'Don't miss a mark, but still do it like yourself.' To do it any other way would rob the audience of a real understanding about the culture."

"I first tried this cigar 5 or 6 yrs ago when i went to go see my dad in Florida... Been smoking them ever since :)"
"Great cigar, my favorite.(La Vieja Habana Fumas Connecticut) As said, smooth, easy to smoke and I'm not good at saying what flavors or hints are there, I just know what I like."
"Ordered a box of the La Vieja Connecticut by Drew Estate. After a few days resting in the humidor I fired one up and was immediately impressed by the smooth draw and mild to medium body of this cigar. Just a hint of spice keeps it interesting, along with some nice woodsy notes. It reminds me of the Davidoff Grand Cru #2 which is a $12.00 cigar."
"The cigars arrived today, and no I did not wait for them to rest. I wanted a new smoke for a beautiful summer evening. Appearance- well constructed, veiny wrapper, it felt a little soft to me. (That resting thing in the humidor would help this.) Easy to light(wooden matches), it seemed a little harsh from the start. About 1/4 inch in the creaminess came through and the harshness was gone. A pleasant smoke. The ash was perfect- no tunneling or canoeing. The ash only fell off when it got too long (about 1.5") I generally smoke Maduros, so this one seems mild to me. Others may call it a medium. Once it reached the sweet spot there was a touch of vanilla through to the finish. A pleasant smoke for a relaxing evening. I will buy more of these."
"I have been a customer of CI now for 5 yrs. I have tried many different cigars. I had never tried the Drew Estate line because his infused blends never interested me in the least. I decided to try his non infused cigars and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The LVH conneticut shade Fumas were a dellight to smoke. Mild and ever so tasty. I smoked six in one day and that is a first for me. I will be buying more of these in the future!"
"My hat off to Drew Estate, a beautifull cigar (LVH Fumas - Connecticut Shade) and a brillant way to package it, I bought the corona's they are the perfect size for me, not to big not to small, and they are made to perfection all 20 cigars look amazing and the conn. wrapper is flawless, These beauties light easy, have a great draw and burn even with a medium gray ash, I do like a stronger cigar every now and then but I know I can smoke a cigar like this and never get that light headed feeling, next im going to try the maduro, these cigars will always have a home in my humidor, If you like a mild smoke give these a try you won't be sorry and wait till you see the box and the way they package the cigars,,,VERY COOL."
"This was my first order from CI. Wow! This cigar is amazingly smooth for the price. My "go to" mild was the San Cristobal Elegancia but this one may take over 1st place. I let them set in humidor for a day or so and first one smoked lit well, burned even, no touch ups required and tasted and smelled great. Will definitely be a repeat customer on this cigar. Thanks CI."
"Great smoke! Good strength without overpowering, good draw, good taste. I grab these by the handfuls and keep several in my glove box (I know, I know)...always ready if I ask someone to join me in a smoke! One of my favorites!"
"The best mixed-filler cigar on the planet, period!"

Thursday Morning Mavs Donuts
Mike Fisher
Posted Dec 20, 2012
Sleepless holiday nights? ... Dirk's back! ... The fancy DB.com Mavs Podcast ... LeBron recovers from his party in time for a Heat-Mavs game ... Cuban passes 'Lamar Scrotum' ... Trix' direction ... Injury update ... DC's big chance ... It's Thursday Morning Mavs Donuts!
DONUT 1: Sleepless holiday nights? ...
A win is always a good thing, but Wednesday's Mavs victory over Philadelphia was meaningful for quite a few reasons. The schedule for the Mavs was relatively light to begin the year (translation: crummy opponents). That seemed ideal at the time considering Dirk Nowitzki was aiming to return from knee surgery by Thanksgiving.
A perfect situation would have been for the fresh-faced Mavericks to stay afloat against the easier part of the schedule and have Nowitzki back in time for the first round of heavy lifting in the 2012-13 season.
The good news is that the Mavs did stay afloat, kinda, going 11-10 through their first 21 games.
The bad news is that Nowitzki is still on the shelf, with no set date to returns. We see him sweat at the AAC this week. We still hear buzz about a return before New Year's. But until it happens, it's "bad.''
The worst news ...
DONUT 2: What a schedule ...
Now don't get me wrong; I'm in the cornball-brother holiday spirit, as you can see by my "it's A Wonderful Life'' holiday card I'm sending out. (Yours is in the mail.) But there is a downside to the season. ...The Mavs' schedule reads like this: vs. Miami, at Memphis, at San Antonio, at Oklahoma City, vs. Denver, and vs. San Antonio.
It would be tough to hand-pick a gauntlet much tougher than that.
With no Dirk and relatively little hope being given to the Mavs without him, they will have to play well beyond themselves to remain afloat. Not to be a pessimist -- but rather, to consider what Las Vegas might think -- and with the given schedule, it is more than possible that Dallas could go 0-6 over that stretch.
No, that's not my prediction; that's what causes me to lose some holiday sleep, that's all.
If that scenario presents itself -- lose to Miami, to Memphis, to San Antonio, to Oklahoma City, to Denver and to San Antonio -- and you are sitting at a frightening 12-19 as the calendar flips to 2013.
I'll make Kevin Brolan grab the big calculator here: If that is the case, the Mavs would have to play 29-22 over the rest of the season JUST to get back to .500, a 41-41 record that won't get you to the playoffs in the Western Conference.
In the most simple of terms, poor performances over the next six games would be basketball-catastrophic for the Mavericks.
DONUT 3: But ... Dirk's back!! ...
Hey, how about an emotional booster shot from
Dirk Nowitzki
's return to the practice floor?
"Not really,'' he said in a Wednesday afternoon press briefing on the subject of a timetable following his first full-contact practice of the season. "We'll just see how it goes. This is the first day stopping, pushing off, moving. We'll see how it reacts. I'm going to do that a couple times, and do some contact for a while.
"Maybe anytime after Christmas, that'll be fun.''
How intense was the workout? Carlisle downplayed it, claiming, "It wasn't really a full-, full-, full-contact day, but he's working hard.
Dirk himself said it was mostly two-on-two work, noting that it involved him and Roddy B vs. Bernard James and Jae Crowder (low-minute guys who could be spared as the team gears up for Thursday's visit from Miami.
"The quality of the games wasn't high, to be honest,'' Dirk said, smiling.
The work going forward will still be as much about trainer Casey Smith and mentor Holger as it will about available teammates to bang on, we would guess.
"Unfortunately, the next couple days, I don't think there's a lot of practice time,'' Dirk said. "We got a back-to-back and another game on Sunday, so I'm going to be playing probably some one-on-one, some two-on-two, with the low-minute guys and slowly get better and better."
Nowitzki is already giving some thought to minutes and roles and fitting back in, saying the club will work to "see what the smartest thing is, maybe come off the bench for the first couple games, play around 20-to-25 minutes," he said. "That's something I guess we need to talk about when it gets to that point. I'm not opposed to obviously coming off the bench at the beginning and slowly finding my rhythm, but I think that's something we need to talk about when it gets closer.
"We haven't addressed that yet, but it's obvious I'm not going to play 35 minutes my first game out. That's something I think we're going to talk about next week."
This remains "a process,'' as coaches like to say.
"He'll be back at some point when he's ready,'' Carlisle said. "He's not ready yet, and that's where we are. I know everybody wants to get the first scoop, when's Dirk gonna play? We don't know when he's gonna play. He's working hard, he's making gradual progress, which is how this works when you have a scope. And when it happens it will happen. We hope it's sooner than later, but we don't have a time yet."
But we do have progress -- and a chance for either a merrier Christmas or a happier New Year. ... and maybe even a more immediate booster shot.
DONUT 4: The DB.com Mavs Podcast ...
LeBron James
came to Dallas for his big Wednesday night part at Zouk. Oh, and to play basketball, too. All observations on the Mavs are here in audio form ... it's Mike Marshall, Kevin Brolan and Roy White dishing on all things Mavs, including the
Miami Heat
's visit to town to play Dallas.
DONUT 5: Stay informed on your Mavs! ...
You can catch the details on the
Dallas Mavericks
' week so far
here in the DallasBasketball.com Archives
here with fans like you on DB.com Boards!
Most of what you need to know about the only-11-turnovers win over Philly on Tuesday is contained in this Rick quote:
"The total was good. Compared to what's been happening, it's great. Fantastic."
DONUT 6: Thanks, Red Rock! ...
The BIGGEST place to watch sports?
Red Rock Bar & Grill,
with the 200-inch screen and the life-long Mavs passion and live music on the weekends, too! Thanks for the partnership, Red Rock!
DONUT 7: Passing the time (and the kidney stone) ...
Mark Cuban spend recent hours in the hospital trying to pass a kidney stone. He also tried to pass the painful time by playing around on Twitter.
Kidney stones are no fun.If this one pops out in one piece I'm either going to get it bronzed or sell it on eBay #pukinglikeaftermyfirstbeer
Kidney stones are no joke..its good when im doubled over because that means its moving, right.. #twitterpaindistraction
What should I name the little f*cker ? #nameCubanskidneystone. #moredistractionspleas
I'd gladly trade this kidney stone for an alien probe..
Tell Em I'm doing this stone grandpa style. No really, .... #stuffyouthinktryingtopassakidneystone
I submitted my best CubanKidneyStone name. "Lamar Scrotum.'' I'm waiting for my prize, Cuban.
DONUT 8: Kaman the Kloser ...
"It's the most important time of the game -- it's crunch time,'' Chris Kaman said after the win over Philly. "And I was glad I was out there to finish plays and get a win.''
And we were glad to see it.
Kaman totalled eight of his 20 points during a five-minute span late in the fourth quarter Tuesday that helped key that 107-100 win over the Sixers.
We break down here how under-used Kaman has been.
Rick explains why here: "It's not like there's a case against him. It just depends on the nature of the game and the personality of the game. I like the way he played (Tuesday) for sure. He did a good job down the stretch. He made some shots. He was a presence around the boards. And he wants to be in there, too."
Kaman himself would offer some more thoughts except he was conducting a contest on Twitter and fell asleep.
DONUT 9: Who needs tickets? ...
Our guy
Ryan at MavCowTickets
knows the ins and outs of the Mavs, the Rangers, the Cowboys, the arenas, the opponents ... the works! For the most personal service in the business -- with no stupid add-on costs -- check him out and tell him The Fish sent you!
DONUT 10: Injury issues ...
The Mavs are expecting to be without starting point guard Derek Fisher against the Heat tonight, and might be without bigs Elton Brand and Brandan Wright.
Brand (groin) and Wright (ankle) are game-time decisions. (We'll have updates from shootaround later this morning.) Fisher sustained a strained right patellar tendon injury on Tuesday.
DONUT 11: DC's opening ...
All things considered -- including D-Fish's injury -- if there was ever a time for Darren Collison to step up to another level and support new chief-Mav OJ Mayo, that time would be now.
Collison has been an enigma since Dallas acquired him in the offseason, losing his starting job and finding himself slipping from Rick Carlisle's favor. It's likely none of that will affect Collison's minutes heading into this stretch; If Fisher's injury is at all serious, Collison will get the majority of the point guard minutes simply because of the numbers game.
Carlisle may not be ecstatic with Collison's production so far this season, but he's simply running out of options at point guard.
So ... "Be Ready,'' right?
That PG void may be the theme so far for the Mavs this season. Rick has had so little trust in his guards outside of anyone not named after a condiment that he brought in 38-year-old Fisher to run his offense. Dallas leads the league in different combinations of starting lineups this year for that exact reason. Carlisle can't find a lineup he likes with Nowitzki out and he won't sit around to let the same guys lose games for his franchise.
The Mavs may be performing poorly, but Carlisle refuses to let them stand pat.
The irony for Carlisle hits hard during this upcoming, potentially season defining stretch. Over the next 12 days, that same Nowitzki-less roster that simply hasn't earned anybody's trust is the group that must be trusted to hold the season in its often-slippery hands.
Expect some sleepless night for Rick Carlisle during the holidays, even as Dirk progresses. And some sleepless nights for you and me, too.
DONUT 12: The Final Word ...
"After that gruesome road trip we were able to bounce back here at home and get a good win," Shawn Marion said of the Philly win, which ended that 0-3 slide. "You know, it's time for us to gain some momentum here and do what we need to do to start moving in the right direction. ...''
That "direction'' points at the visit from Miami tonight. It's an 8:30 p.m. tip ... and between now and then DB.com will have full coverage

Anorexia is an eating disorder . It occurs when a person's obsession with diet and exercise leads to extreme weight loss. The disorder is considered if a person refuses to maintain a body weight at or above 85% of their ideal body weight. It can be fatal.
Factors that increase your risk for anorexia include:
Symptoms may include:
Anorexia often leads to a number of serious medical problems including:
Body Dysmorphia

The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. There will also be psychological tests.
Your bodily fluids may be tested. This can be done with blood tests.
Your heart's activity may be tested. This can be done with an electrocardiogram.
Your bones may be evaluated. This can be done with a bone density test.
The goal of treatment is to get you return you to a healthy weight and to help you maintain that weight. A healthy weight is above 85% of your ideal weight. To achieve this, your intake of calories is gradually increased. This can be accomplished through a number of interventions, including the following:
A dietician may be consulted to help you learn more about the components of a healthy diet. The dietician will also talk to you about reasonable weight goals and calorie goals.
Therapy can help address harmful thought patterns, improve eating behavior, and increase self-esteem. There are many different types of therapy. Work with your doctor and therapists to determine which therapy may be best for you. You may use more than one therapy or try different therapies before you find one that works best for you. Some therapy options include:
In some cases, anorexic patients benefit from a combination of psychotherapy and antidepressant medication. In particular, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are used. Used alone, antidepressant therapy is not an effective treatment for anorexia.
Medications and supplements may include:
Hospitalization may be necessary if:
If you are diagnosed with anorexia, follow your doctor's instructions .

pull the plug on water privatisation
Media advisory
Friends of the Earth International
May 15, 2007
134 groups urge rich countries to pull the plug on world bank's push for water privatisation
THE HAGUE (THE NETHERLANDS), MAY 15, 2007 - Over 134 groups from 48 countries today called on donor governments to abandon support for a highly controversial agency of the World Bank focused on privatisation called the `Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility' (PPIAF).
The call comes a week ahead of a May 23 meeting of the 13 donors to the PPIAF. In an open letter, groups argue that PPIAF's bias towards private sector `solutions' to water access represents a poor use of aid money.
Earlier this year, the Norwegian government stated that it will not support PPIAF in the future as it no longer believes it is increasing access to water for the poor.
In the letter to PPIAF's remaining donors, signed by civil society groups and trade unions from around the world, including poor countries where PPIAF has funded water privatisation processes, campaigners say: "The evidence shows that the private sector has shown a great reluctance to commit finance to connecting the poorest people to clean, affordable water…. Our conclusion is that aid could be better spent and we ask donors to withdraw this funding accordingly."
Elías Dias Peña of Friends of the Earth in Paraguay says, "In Paraguay, despite public protest and a parliamentary vote against it, water privatisation is still pushed by the PPIAF, the International Monetary Fund and powerful private companies. But opposition remains strong. A new law on water developed by civil society groups and members of Parliament declares water a property of the state and access to water a fundamental human right. The law is awaiting its final vote in the Paraguayan chamber of deputies right now."
Denied permission to observe PPIAF's annual meeting, campaigners are organising a forum in The Hague on 22 May to discuss PPIAF, its role within the World Bank and progressive alternatives in the area of water.
On PPIAF's agenda next week is a proposal to extend its remit further and give the controversial agency a stronger role in World Bank water policies. Activists believe that donors should reject this extension and instead create a wholly new fund to support water utilities in the global south based on `public-public partnerships'.
They argue that PPIAF undermines the right of poor countries to decide how to run their public services. PPIAF has funded projects in many poor countries where international financial institutions like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund have attached water privatisation conditions to loans, debt relief or aid.
Campaigners are particularly critical of PPIAF's funding for `consensus-building' projects which try to persuade stakeholders in developing countries to accept water privatisation.

photo opportunity

notes to editors
[1] The Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility (PPIAF) is housed within the World Bank and it funds "technical assistance on strategies and measures [governments] can use to tap the full potential of public-private partnerships in infrastructure". It also disseminates information about "best practice" in public-private partnerships. PPIAF works in a range of sectors including transport, telecommunications and water.
[2] In a report published last year, campaigners found that since 1999, PPIAF has funded one or more processes aimed at developing private sector participation and / or privatisation in water and sanitation services in a total of 37 countries. In at least 16 countries, PPIAF has sought to `build consensus' for water privatisation projects. `Building consensus' refers to activities that promote the benefits of privatisation or particular privatisation options and/or attempt to persuade sceptical members of governments, parliaments, business, trade unions, civil society and citizens that privatisation is in their interests. In at least 18 of the countries in which PPIAF has worked on water privatisation, donors have made their support conditional on privatisation. More information can be found at: http://www.corporateeurope.org/ppiaf.html
[3] PPIAF's current donors are: Asian Development Bank, Canada, European Commission, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States, World Bank. The UK is the largest donor by far contributing over 50 per cent of PPIAF's funds, an amount which totals £53 million from 1999-2008.
[4] In February 2007, the Norwegian government announced that it would no longer give political or financial support to PPIAF. More information can be found at:
[5] The international civil society forum "Stop water privatisation - Alternatives to the PPIAF"
will be held on Tuesday 22 May from 10.30am at Nieuwspoort Perscentrum, room Wandelganger I Lange Poten 10, The Hague, the Netherlands. Speaking will be campaigners from India, Malawi and Paraguay where PPIAF has funded water privatisation consultancy studies.
This event will be preceded by a press conference at 09.30am at the same venue which will be an opportunity to discuss these issues.

Redskins Training Camp Preview: Center and Guards
Today we continue our annual survey of the Redskins roster, seeking to determine which players are most likely to make the final 2013 team and which are not. We will look at every position on the roster and today we cover guards and center.
ON THE ROSTER: Kevin Matthews [C], Will Montgomery [C], Tevita Stevens [C], Chris Chester [G], Adam Gettis [G], Maurice Hurt [G], Josh LiRibeus [G], Kory Lichtensteieger [G/C]
STARTERS: Will Montgomery [C], Chris Chester [G], Kory Lichtensteiger [G/C]
BACKUPS: Adam Gettis [G], Maurice Hurt [G], Josh LiRibeus [G]
ON THE BUBBLE: Kevin Matthews [C], Tevita Stevens [C]
ANALYSIS: I graded Montgomery as the second-best lineman on the Redskins last year and one of two playing at a Pro Bowl level. Montgomery didn't have a single bad game, though he did have a couple of mediocre performances. However, more often he played very well, particularly as a run-blocker. Montgomery had games against New Orleans, St. Louis, Carolina, Philadelphia and Dallas that were truly special and he did this in the first year of his new contract, giving Redskins fans reason to hope that resting on his laurels is not part of Montgomery's career plan.
I graded Kory Lichtensteiger out as the second-worst offensive lineman on the team last year, but only because Tyler Polumbus was even worse. Lichtensteiger had only one good game — week two against the Rams — and several terrible games. In the games against New Orleans, Tampa Bay, Philadelphia [the first game], Dallas [the first game] and Cleveland, Lichtensteiger just downright bad. Interestingly, he was a better pass-blocker than run-blocker, but he wasn't very good at either. He also had far too many penalties [10!], some of them inexcusable since he plays right next to the ball. Lichtensteiger's strength is that he can play center, but he was not a good player last year. Perhaps some of that is working through his season-ending injury in 2011, when he played much better. Redskins fans must hope so because if Lichtensteiger returns to his 2011 form, the offensive line should be in good shape. If he plays in 2013 the way he did in 2012, though, the team must hope that one of its 2012 draft picks can replace Lichtensteiger in the lineup.
Chester improved from a so-so 2011 to a solid 2012, when he was only the third-best player on the line, but he was a very solid third place. I had Chester down for only two bad games and seven good games, which is an excellent ratio. He was a better-than-average run blocker and an even better pass blocker and he did a far better job than Lichtensteiger at avoiding penalties [only three]. Chester has a headlock on that right guard spot and won't be moved if he's healthy.
Adam Gettis, a 5th round pick in 2012, didn't play at all last season, thanks to the great health enjoyed by Washington's offensive line. He's now had a season in the system, though, so he should be more reliable if he's called upon to play this season. Until we see Gettis in a real game it is hard to know what we have in the second year guard. Josh LiRibeus, a third rounder in 2012, didn't start a game in 2012, but he did play in five regular season contests and the playoff loss to Seattle, so we know a bit more about him. He's a bit of a mauler, but I thought he played fairly well in the playoff game in relief of Lichtensteiger. Unfortunately, LiRibeus showed up for minicamps and OTAs this year out of shape and overweight. That's not terribly uncommon for a second year offensive lineman and I'm sure he will round in to shape quickly by the time training camp starts. He should because although Lichtensteiger is the starter right now, a strong camp and preseason from LiRibeus could allow him to challenge for the starting job. We'll see if he's up to it.
Maurice Hurt is a 2011 7th rounder who can play guard and center and saw some action in relief of Tyler Polumbus last season. He doesn't look like a starter to me, but his versatility could help him stick around. Players who can handle more than one position are greatly valued, particularly along the offensive line.
PREDICTION: Montgomery, Chester and Lichtensteiger should all start the season if they're healthy, though LeRibeus has a shot at Lichtensteiger's job if he has a good camp and preseason. Expect LeRibeus and Gettis to make the team, as well, with Hurt possibly the odd man out if others can take his place as backup tackle.

PARTRIDGE (Tetrao perdix). A bird of game, which abounds in all parts of Europe, and is much esteemed for the delicate flavour of its flesh. The colour of its plumage is brown and ash, interspersed with black; the middle of each feather streaked down with buff; the tail, short; the legs, of a greenish white, with a small knob behind; the bill, of a light brown ; the eyes, hazel. Partridges are found no where in greater plenty than in this country; and, as a delicacy, notwithstanding their numbers, are held inferior to none.
Partridges pair towards the end of February ; the hen lays from fifteen to upwards of twenty eggs, making her nest on the ground, with grass or leaves, in a clover or corn-field; the young birds run as soon as hatched, sometimes even with a portion of the shell adhering to their bodies. The fecundity of these birds is astonishing: in 1823, a covey of twenty-two birds was found; but, although a covey so individually numerous as the one just mentioned is not often met with, yet there are instances of a still more surprising fecundity. In the year 1793, on a farm belonging to Mr. Pratt, near Terling, in Essex, a partridge's nest was found, in a fallow field, containing thirty-three eggs ; of these twenty-three were hatched,and the whole went off with the hen; and of the remaining eggs four more had live birds in them. In 1798, the nest of a partridge was found near E1borough, in Somersetshire, with twenty-eight eggs; and in June, 1801, at Mr. Clarke's, Welton Place, Nottinghamshire, a partridge's nest, containing thirty-three eggs, was found in one of the plantations. Thus, then, in manors well stocked and carefully preserved, the increase of a single season, even upon a moderate scale, may be easily conceived.
Partridges, both male and female, are excessively attached to, and indefatigable in defending their offspring. Whenever a dog or other enemy approaches the nest, the male sounds the tocsin, by a peculiar cry, throwing himself into immediate danger, in order to perplex or mislead the pursuer; he flies, or rather hops or runs along the ground, hanging his wings, and falling down, then rising at intervals, until he succeeds in drawing the foe from the covey; the female flies off in a contrary direction, and to a greater distance; but soon returns, and hastily collects her scattered treasure, which instantly assemble at her well-known voice, and follow where she leads them. If the eggs of a partridge be placed under the domestic hen, she will hatch and rear them as her own. Care must be taken, however, that the young be supplied with ants' eggs, their favourite food, without which it will be found almost impossible to rear them. They also seek and greedily devour all that infinite variety of insects, found on the blades of grass, the leaves of plants, &c. It has been asserted, that eggs thus hatched suffer too M great heat, and that, in consequence, the feathers of the bird about to come forth adhere to the inner surface of the shell. To obviate this, it is recoomended to place the eggs under the lightest bantam hen. The partridge, if unmolested, lives fifteen or sixteen years; it can never be thoroughly tamed like our domestic poultry. Partridges were originally taken with the stalking horse and net; but, through the introduction of the fowling-piece, this sport has undergone considerable improvement, and now ranks secondary only to grouseshooting, which has been pronounced the fox-hunting of la chasse aufusil.
The red-legged partridge is larger and heavier, and appears to fly with more difficulty than the common partridge, with which, however, it has been known to pair. This beautiful variety is found in abundance in some parts of the continent, particularly in France and Spain: it has also been partially introduced into tins country, and is met with in the west of England, also in Norfolk and Suffolk. It is said not to be so prolific as the gray or common partridge, which never lights but upon the ground, whereas the red frequently perches on trees. Shooters say that they afford bad sport, and injure the dogs because they hardly ever lay well.
In November, 1827, a pied partridge, and another, milk-white, were shot in the neighbourhood of Ripon, Yorkshire; they are both preserved in the fine collection of rare birds, iic. belonging to T. Stubbs, Esq. of that place. In January, 1828, another white partridge was shot by Mr. Moiser, of Topcliffe; this, also, has been placed in the same museum.

The "it" is what he'll do for his senior season, and he's elected to return and skip the option of leaving college early for the NFL Draft.
"Just the camaraderie with some of the guys," Millard said as to why he ultimately decided to come back. "You know, some of my best friends that I'll ever have in my life are playing for this team and they'll be back next year. And definitely just want to finish out senior year here, get my degree and just then see what the next level has to offer."
He'll, of course, have that opportunity—God willing he doesn't suffer an injury in 2013—after the following season.
And so would some others, namely free safety Tony Jefferson and wide receiver Kenny Stills, if they elect to do the same.
But he won't press his decision among those guys, even though he'd like to see them come back.
"I mean that's those guys' decision," Millard said. "They need to go through their own process. And I mean I'd love to have some of those guys back, but I'm not gonna try to really push them either way. That's their own decision. They have to live with it because it's gonna be ultimately their life that they have to live."
It's Millard's life to live, too, and he's chosen a fourth and final season donning the Crimson and Cream uniform.
"I mean I kinda had this [feeling]," Millard said. "I was kinda leaning that way before this game. This game wasn't a major factor in the decision. But having said that, I think a lot of guys don't want to get sent off like this. They don't want their last game to be a blowout like it was today, and I think some of those guys might consider that into their decision."
Time will tell on that.

What better way to celebrate icy cold January than with your favorite Arctic bird?
Penguin Awareness Day is on January 20—so bundle up your kids and take them to the Philadelphia Zoo or Adventure Aquarium to learn more about penguins, a native bird from Antarctica. This is a great opportunity to get everyone out of the house and see penguins in action.
The Philadelphia Zoo is offering $10 off admission for those who dress in their best penguin gear through Monday.
Adventure Aquarium has a 1-week-old African Penguin chick (see photo in the gallery). Right now, the aquarium's penguin exhibit is closed for a few weeks for outdoor construction, according to Kimberly Walker, with Adventure Aquarium's public relations.
However, the aquarium "will be hosting special 'up close' encounters with our African Penguins for guests at select times throughout the day---all weekend long and throughout the exhibit closure, so our guests still have opportunities to see the penguins," according to Walker.
Penguin Awareness Day became a holiday in order to raise awareness to the fact that these flightless birds are on the endangered species list.
Adventure Aquarium hosts an annual African Penguin Awareness Weekend in September to raise funds and awareness for penguins.
Other ways to celebrate this holiday include:
- Dressing like a penguin (those tuxedos are cute)
- Donating to Non-Profit Organizations that Help Penguins
- Adopt a Penguin
- Educate yourself about penguins and share what you learn with family and friends
- Watch a Penguin Movie
- Read a book about Penguins
- Indulge in Penguin Desserts
- Eat like a penguin by ordering sashimi
TELL US: How will you celebrate this fun holiday in town?

Neighborhoods: Magnolia - Queen Anne, Lower Queen Anne, Magnolia / Queen Anne
The quintessential neighborhood joint, this inviting space is usually packed before and after shows at the nearby Seattle Center, so make a reservation if you're going in prime time. Long time menu standouts include the super-satisfying lasagna and the prosciutto-wrapped chicken, but the offerings shift with the seasons and regulars look forward to chilly weather and the arrival of the cassoulet. The wine list has interesting selections and at least one night a week, there are a number of bottles going for just $20.
Pretty well worth it. – My wife and I were just there for our anniversary. Our initial impression was that it was a bit loud for our tastes. The restaurant is pretty much one room with high ceilings, so the chatter of hungry couples gets reasonably loud. It's not like you have to yell to hear each other, but don't expect to be whispering to your love. The parmesean salad was unique and delicious. My wife had the chicken, and I had the steak. The steak's flavor and texture were very good. The peppercorn sauce was also very good. The chicken was perfectly prepared and super juicy.
The side items that came with our dishes weren't terrific. My red skinned potatoes were overcooked and a bit bland, and I love potatoes. My wife ordered the side of smashed potato pancake, and it was decent but nothing earth shattering. Included veggies were pretty good. The deserts were perfectly portioned and flavor was solid. I wouldn't go just for desert (as I would some places), but it was a nice way to cap off a good meal.
Overall, We were happy, and would likely visit there again for another special day. It's a little bit expensive for an every week treat.
Smart, Casual Dinning – Crow is consistently one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle. Honestly the best chicken in the city. The prosciutto wrapped pan roasted chicken with green beans in an exquisite au jus (sauce of pan drippings) always wows me. The chicken, perfectly crisp on the outside and tender and moist throughout the inside. Order a side of the smashed potato cake and you are golden for an delicious meal. The menu frequently changes highlighting seasonal ingredients with the chicken and lasagna being cornerstones of the menu. Portions are decent sized so if you want you can share with a friend. Usually we share an appetizer, salad or soup and entree so we can sample different parts of the menu. Desserts also tend to be delectable, so save room! Affordable for the quality of food, Crow is your neighborhood restaurant or a special place to bring out of town guests.
The space, large industrial style with open ceilings and brightly colored walls, is quite sleek and sophisticated. However the drawback is on a busy night it can be very noisy. My experience with service is usually positive, wait staff are knowledgeable about dishes, suggested wines that pair accordingly and mostly friendly. Consistently busy may be hard to get a table at the last minute without a reservation, however if you like, sit at the back kitchen bar and watch the chefs work their magic.
Neighborhood dining at its Best. – The Crow is close to downtown and the Seattle Center, and all other attractions the city has to offer. And certainly is a deluxe American neighborhood bistro.
The Mediterranean platter worked well for starters. The Kumamoto Oysters were superb, and three of us had the chicken (which I will certain repeat next time around). Generally oysters cost about the same, big or small. Smaller oysters are usually tastier.
The wine list worked well with the food, complementing the entire dinner experience. Let them help you select, and you will probably have a bottle both better and cheaper than if you go it alone. As stated in the Seattle Times "They do everything absolutely right."
If Alone, Don't Expect a Table – The first and second time I tried to go to the Crow, I was alone. I was not allowed to make a reservation over the phone for one person, so I thought I'd go later and grab an empty table. When I got there, several small tables were empty, but I was told I had to sit at the bar. Well, alone with a book, it was too dark to read at the bar, so I left.
I ran into the same problem at Betty, the Crow's sister restaurant on Upper Queen Anne.
I've since been to Crow (and Betty) with other people and have had pretty good experiences. The service was a bit slow, but our waiters and waitresses were very cordial.
Bottom line, if you're alone and don't want to sit at the bar, go somewhere else.
Don't Ignore the Bad Reviews on this Site About Crow... – We had two birthdays yesterday, and out of several suggestions, we decided to go to Crow to celebrate. My partner called earlier that morning to make a reservation for 4 at 7:30 pm and told them that we had two birthdays. We showed up at 7:30, and weren't seated until 8:00 pm (my partner wondered why they took the reservation in the first place if they couldn't seat us.) While we waited, we weren't invited to get a drink at the bar, or even spoken to until our table was ready. When we were seated, our bored server said, "I apologize for the wait," but by her tone, we could tell she didn't care. The food was alright, you can get the same "foodie" items in other restaurants, but frankly, it was the service that drove us away. My friend was offered cracked pepper, but it wasn't offered to me. When my partner asked the server to bring pepper - she brought a ramekin of already crushed pepper (umh, I had to restrain myself from saying "what the hell?") Oh yeah, forgot to say that there was absolutely no mention of our birthdays at all. My partner quietly informed them when we got there that we were celebrating two birthdays, and our server said nothing, and neither did the 3 other people who interacted with our table badly. When the dessert menu came, we politely declined, paid our bill, and went to Molly Moon's in Wallingford for ice cream. I might be a bureaucrat now, but I've waited tables before, and it's really not that hard to be nice and welcoming to people, even if you're having a terrible day. Overall: Food = okay, ambience = attractive, service = pretentious and bad.
Good dinner, weird about seating – My fiance and I decided to try out Crow on a Friday night without reservations around 6 pm since it's nearby where we live. When we walked in, half the tables were empty but the hostess--after looking at her list for a good 3 minutes--wouldn't seat us because she said that people were coming. So we sat at the "chef's table," which we ended up liking better anyway. I had the gnocchi, which I loved. My fiance had the roasted chicken. It was good except for the sauce, which lacked taste. We kept seeing a lot of the steak over salad dish (not sure what it was) but it looked amazing. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and chit chat with the chefs. When we were leaving we did take note that 7 of the so-called reserved tables were still empty. Like I said, we ended up liking the chef's table probably more than we would have liked a booth, but I still found it odd.
Regular Favorite – I eat at Crow 2 to 3 times per month. I usually sit at the food bar because it is really fun to watch them prepare the food. The servers and chefs are friendly and attentive. I love that Crow's menu changes every month or so and there is always something new and great that is reasonably priced. Lately, there have been a couple of great salads, a crab salad and beet salad, each of which I had a couple of times. Last month, I had a great hangar steak served on a watercress and tomato salad with blue cheese on top. Recently, I had the gnocchi with brown butter, corn, and morels and it was a little bit of heaven. Their gnocchi is flour based - not potato - and melts in your mouth. I'm going to try the lamp chops and ribeye they just put on the menu next week. Crow may get a little loud and busy on the weekends, but it is always a sure bet for a great meal.
Terrible – NEVER EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
The food is tasteless and the main ingredient in every course is BUTTER
and chef when asked questions is extremely arrogant....
Stay away from this place!
Best chicken on earth – A friend took me there for dinner a few months ago. I was really disappointed when I saw how small the menu was. I ended up ordering the chicken and was blown away. Hands down, it was the juiciest, tenderest, piece of poultry I have ever had. The martini I had wasn't to shabby either.
Great Food, Great customer service – Our first experience with Crow was a total success...We had heard so much about if we made a reservation and went on Wednesday night a few weeks ago. We were greated at the door with a big smile from the hostess. We chose to sit at the bar and soak up the atmosphere and some delicous oysters and bread. I had the best mojitos ever in the history of the drink. We moved on to a dinner of divine scallops and perfectly cooked lamb...WOW...it was so much fun to watch the 3 women chefs at work... It was easy to tell the staff really enjoys working threre by how well they all did their jobs! really a special night...I highly reccomend it! My favorite neighborhood restaurant in Seattle!
