Feelingsball begets feelingsbowls
Hey, neato, BCS honchos are exploring new formats for college football's bloated and occasionally nonsensical postseason! USA Today has a cache of documents with all the details, and included among them is one horrifying scenario that's either an elaborate prank of admirable intricacy or a dire klaxon that signals the triumph at last of #feelingsball over reason.
[Proposed plans include] a heretofore undisclosed four-team playoff proposal that could expand the semifinals to preserve an annual Big Ten-vs.-Pacific-12 matchup in the Rose Bowl.
In the latter plan, the four highest-ranked teams at the end of the regular season would meet in semifinals unless the Big Ten or Pac-12 champion, or both, were among the top four. Those leagues' teams still would meet in the Rose, and the next highest-ranked team or teams would slide into the semis. The national championship finalists would be selected after those three games.
For the record, here's what that plan would have looked like if it had been in place the past five seasons. Are you not entertained?
And you know what else rankles? Apart from making a mockery of the definition of the Redbird Reading Group-level term "semifinal," it turns swaths of sports fans, however tangentially, against the Rose Bowl, and the Rose Bowl is one of our very favorite things. (If you've never been, change that. Even if you get an Illinois-USC matchup and don't like your baths bloody, there's still the parade and the golf course tailgating and Pasadena to explore.) We lived 20 minutes from the stadium for a few years after college. It is our favorite place on earth. And if we now lived someplace where the weather in January was at all similar to Chicago in January, we, too, would probably make complete prats of ourselves to score a guaranteed trip to Southern California on an annual basis. But surely Jim Delany makes more than enough fat bills from his cashy conference to score a sweet timeshare in the 'Bu, somewhere. Must we really all suffer, must our precious game suffer, so that one man may savor his Pie 'n Burger in prosaic silence?
A curated selection of sporting types responding to this development, after the jump:
Only college football could come up with a four-team playoff with three semifinals (the Rose Bowl plan). usat.ly/HeN2Gy
— Stewart Mandel (@slmandel) April 4, 2012
Now that conference commissioners have licked their fingers and stuck them in the wind, they can go to Rose and say, "Welp, we tried."
— Andy Staples (@Andy_Staples) April 4, 2012
If the Rose Bowl is so sacrosanct, why don't the Big Ten and Pac-12 just pull out of the BCS and let everyone else stage a playoff?
— Seth Emerson (@SethEmerson) April 4, 2012
BCS reportedly also considering triple-elimination format or wrestlebacks to determine national champion
— Brett McMurphy (@McMurphyCBS) April 4, 2012
Perhaps the MAC will counter by insisting that the road to the championship go through the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl.
— sir broosk (@celebrityhottub) April 4, 2012
What? You don't like the "Win in the semis, don't play in the finals" angle? RT @jcshurburtt: Rose Bowl "protect our matchup" plan is vomit.
— Bill Connelly (@SBN_BillC) April 4, 2012
A reminder: that is Jim Delany, grand advocate for "the student athlete," proposing another exhibition game so he can keep the Rose Bowl.
— edsbs (@edsbs) April 4, 2012
College football's playoff is going to look like Calvinball — extremely *safe* Calvinball — by the time Jim Delany is done with it
— Jason Kirk (@JasonKirkSBN) April 4, 2012
Nice of BCS honchos to put everybody's goofy idea on paper. Lets em think their goofy idea actually considered. Looking at you, Rose Bowl.
— George Schroeder (@GeorgeSchroeder) April 4, 2012
A three-game semifinal round is the worst possible idea, and the fact it's among the final proposals is… well, not surprising, really.
— Matt Hinton (@MattRHinton) April 4, 2012

FoE Japan: Contradiction Rife Energy and Environmental Strategy Missing Key Principles and Pathways to Realize a "Zero Nuclear" Energy System as Early as Possible
The "Innovative Strategy for Energy and the Environment" was announced on September 14th. While the target is a "Nuclear phase out" by 2040, the contents include a continuation of reprocessing activity and a declaration to restart nuclear power stations. These actions could well preserve the previous nuclear energy regime, so the strategy is full of contradictions. It should be noted that the announced Strategy does not reflect the opinion of the majority (90%) of citizens, who submitted public comments solicited by the Japanese government. They want Japan to abolish nuclear energy at the earliest possible time before 2030, with 80% favouring immediate phase out.

I am writing in response, not only to the front-page item "Railway's Maine lines inspected recently" (July 17), but to most of the coverage of the tragic train derailment in Lac-Megantic.
Smoke rises after railway cars carrying crude oil derailed in Lac-Megantic, Quebec, on July 6. A reader blames the derailment on "the ridiculously dangerous practice of parking a train on a main running line," rather than on a siding or in a rail yard.
2013 File Photo/The Associated Press
Everything I have read so far misses the point: The ridiculously dangerous practice of parking a train on a main running line is simply an accident waiting to happen -- and has now happened.
It relies entirely on the braking systems of the engine and train, and of course on the train crew. This practice, commonplace all over America and apparently in Canada, has never been allowed in the U.K., where a train has to be parked on a siding or in a rail yard, with the relevant switches set and locked so that it simply cannot run onto the running line.
Why is it allowed here? Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway CEO Ed Burkhardt, with his railway interests in Britain, should know better.
Reps. Mike Michaud and Chellie Pingree and heaven knows who else sounding off about inspecting Maine's rail tracks is completely irrelevant. Anyone can see that an unmanned train running away down an incline is nothing to do with track condition.
It is simply a matter of gravity, however perfect the track: Of course it derailed at the tremendous velocity reached by the time it got to the town, probably on a curve or switch that should be navigated at very low speed.
So saying "track conditions were cited as the primary cause of 10 of Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway's 19 derailments" is just another red herring thrown into the mix.
I would support the enactment of a law forbidding this practice, albeit too late for the citizens of Lac-Megantic, whose tragic plight I find it hard to get out of my mind.
Chris Small
Letters about recruiter vote make unfounded comparison
Gov. LePage has too much time on his hands, since he took time to write all of the Democratic legislators, disparaging them for their votes against his specious bill regarding allowing military access to high schools.
Had he checked, he would have known it was a non-issue since federal law mandates access to schools.
Having created the issue, the governor went on to name seven schools that limited access, only to have several of the schools deny that such a policy existed.
LePage obviously designed the bill in order to be able to charge all Democratic legislators with disrespect for our men and women in uniform. In doing so, he compares the legislators to a tiny fringe of the anti-Vietnam War movement. This is especially egregious, since one of his letters was sent to a decorated Vietnam veteran.
Since LePage brought up Vietnam, I think it is fair to ask where he was during the war.
He and I turned 19 at the time that the war was escalating. LePage spent the war in college and graduate school, which usually protected the individual from the draft.
During this era I actively opposed the war, but this came after I was honorably discharged from the Navy. I respect both the soldiers and the anti-war demonstrators, but I don't respect those who favored the war but left the fighting to others.
The governor has shown us one more thing from this incident: Not only is his brain not connected to his mouth, it's not connected to his hand, either.

Medical marijuana advocates in Maine are promoting new legislation that would deregulate the state's program further by allowing doctors to certify patients for any medical condition.
Jake Dimmock, co-owner of the Northwest Patient Resource Center medical marijuana dispensary in Washington, prepares medical marijuana for distribution to patients in Seattle. Medical marijuana advocates in Maine are promoting new legislation that would deregulate the state's program further by allowing doctors to certify patients for any medical condition.
AP File Photo
"We really feel like it's the doctor's right to certify patients without restriction," said Paul McCarrier, legislative liaison for Medical Marijuana Caregivers of Maine.
Rep. Mark Dion, D-Portland, a strong supporter of Maine's medical marijuana program, said he will sponsor the bill in the upcoming legislative session.
"We don't tell doctors what they can and can't do for any other type of medication. Why should we for medical marijuana?" Dion said.
Maine law currently allows doctors to certify patients only if they meet one of several specific conditions: cancer, HIV/AIDS, glaucoma, Crohn's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease), hepatitis C, Alzheimer's disease, seizure disorders, severe muscle spasms and intractable pain.
The last three conditions were added as part of a 2009 law that also created the state's dispensary program and allowed certified caregivers to grow marijuana for up to five patients.
Although Maine's expanded medical marijuana program is still evolving, experts say the number of patients who have been certified has grown tremendously since the 2009 law went into effect. However, patients also no longer have to register with the state, which means there is no way to know exactly how many people are using it, how many doctors are certifying patients for it, or whether the number of users is growing.
Further deregulation of state laws could lead Maine toward a lax model similar to California's, which has generated criticism and increased scrutiny by the U.S. Department of Justice. Marijuana is still illegal under federal law.
The Maine Medical Association, a lobbying organization that represents physicians, is likely to oppose the bill.
"The conditions are quite liberal now," said Gordon Smith, the group's director. "If you allow any physician to write certificates for any reason, some are going to take that too far. We don't want to allow the program to become a front for recreational use."
Smith said if the state wants to continue adding conditions, it might as well legalize the drug.
Rep. Diane Russell, D-Portland, already has announced that she intends to submit a legalization bill for consideration during the 126th Legislature. Russell submitted a similar bill last year in Maine, but it failed to generate much support in the House. Last month, she indicated she plans to bring the issue up again, hoping that the shift in policies across the nation could spur lawmakers who voted against her last year to come around.
Two states, Colorado and Washington, legalized marijuana through voter referendums last month, becoming the first states to do so.
The bill pushed by the Medical Marijuana Caregivers of Maine might represent the step between current law and outright legalization, although McCarrier and Dion don't necessarily see it that way.
"I think legalizing marijuana is premature until the 'feds' resolve the issue," Dion said.
McCarrier said legalizing marijuana for recreational use should not be equated with medical marijuana use.
The Department of Justice has largely looked the other way in the growing number of states with medical marijuana programs. Massachusetts voters last month approved a law creating a program similar to Maine's. However, medical marijuana dispensaries have been shut down by the federal government in some states, such as California.
Dion, McCarrier and others plan to release additional details about their proposed legislation at an event Monday in Falmouth at the practice of Dr. Dustin Sulak, a leading advocate for medical marijuana who has said he has certified thousands of patients. The bill also has the support of the American Civil Liberties Union of Maine.
It's still early to predict what kind of support the proposed bill might have, although medical marijuana legislation in the past has drawn support from both libertarian-leaning Republicans and liberal Democrats.
Medical marijuana has been legal in Maine since 1999, when more than 60 percent of voters approved a statewide citizens initiative. The goal was to allow patients with certain debilitating conditions to grow and possess a small amount of marijuana for therapeutic use.
The law was expanded in 2009 after Maine voters overwhelmingly approved the creation of dispensaries, allowing certified caregivers to grow marijuana for other patients and adding more allowable conditions.
Advocates have often said that more conditions should be allowed, specifically anxiety disorders and post traumatic stress disorder. The 2009 law was supposed to allow for creation of a board made up of medical professionals that would periodically look at adding conditions. That board was never formed.

Thu, June 28 2012 - Six Finalists Announced for CLIF Kid® Backyard Game of the Year: Olympic Gold Medalist Jonny Moseley and Best-Selling Author Richard Louv to Serve as Judges at July 14 Playoffs in San Francisco
EMERYVILLE, Calif., June 28, 2012 – CLIF Kid®, maker of organic snacks for active kids, today announced six finalists for the second annual Backyard Game of the Year contest. CLIF Kid challenged kids across the country to reconnect with imaginative outdoor play by inventing the most creative backyard game. On July 14, the six finalists will unveil their games at Marina Green in San Francisco for the chance to win a $10,000 scholarship and other prizes at the Backyard Game of the Year Playoffs.
Free to the public, kids from the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond are invited to join CLIF Kid for a lively afternoon of playing the finalists' backyard games. A celebrity panel of judges, which include U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist in Freestyle Skiing, Jonny Moseley, and best-selling author and outdoor play advocate, Richard Louv, will watch the games in action and decide who wins this year's Backyard Game of the Year title.
"As a kid, I spent a lot of time outside, jumping off of things, cardboard sliding and building skate ramps and forts. Getting creative outside is a huge part of who I was then and who I am now," said Moseley. "As a parent, I am even more aware that kids need the encouragement and the freedom to run around outside. I look forward to every chance I have at helping kids lead fun, active lives and I am really excited to be a part of an awesome day at CLIF Kid's Backyard Game Playoffs."
The six finalists are:
• Dance Tag by Lana, age 7, Peculiar, Mo.
• Footloose Derby by Madison, age 7, Port Orange, Fla.
• North Pole South Pole by Abigail, age 7, Albany, Ore.
• Sidewalk Chalk Adventure by Healy, age 6, Wolfeboro, N.H.
• Tortoise & the Hare Ball by Dhani, age 8, Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.
• Zombie Hunt by Jack, age 8, Greenfield, Wis.
"Kids' imaginations ignite when they play outside," said Louv. "At the Backyard Game of the Year Playoffs, we're going to see creativity in action. Outdoor play is such a key part of kids' health and cognitive development; it will be thrilling to watch these kids as they inspire others to join in the fun."
Results from a 2012 national survey conducted by Kelton Research, commissioned by CLIF Kid, revealed that most parents agree kids who play outdoors tend to be healthier (84%), more adventurous (81%) and stronger (71%). The survey also revealed that while parents believe kids should ideally get 13 hours of outdoor playtime each week, kids are only averaging nine hours.
Event Details
The 2012 Backyard Game of the Year Playoffs will take place Saturday, July 14, 2012 from 11 a.m.–1 p.m. at Marina Green in San Francisco, along Marina Boulevard near Scott Street. The Backyard Game of the Year will be selected by a panel of guest judges including best-selling author Richard Louv, who coined the term Nature Deficit Disorder®, and U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist Jonny Moseley, known for inventing the Dinner Roll ski trick. The first 200 kids will receive a free t-shirt and free organic snacks will be on hand to nourish kids while they play. Event details are available at www.clifkidbackyardgame.com.
"CLIF Kid knows that parents want their kids to lead active and healthy lives," said Jennifer Yun, brand director for CLIF Kid. "That's why we are so excited to host the second annual Backyard Game of the Year to connect kids with the joy and benefits of playing outside more often. We are always impressed with the creative entries we receive from kids across the country, and every year it is hard to pick the top entries for the Playoffs. We look forward to seeing the finalists' games come alive in July."
Contest Details
Backyard game ideas were submitted online by kids ages 6-12 and their parents between March 20 and June 17, 2012. The six finalists were selected based on the contest criteria, which look for the game's originality, creativity and ability to be played outside using basic household items. These six kids will appear at the CLIF Kid Backyard Game of the Year Playoffs to present their games. Each finalist will receive a Marin1 bicycle and a Bell2 helmet. The grand prize winner will receive a $10,000 educational scholarship and the five runners-up will each win a $1,000 educational scholarship.
All six games will be available for download on the CLIF Kid Backyard Game website after the Playoffs. To further reach families and motivate kids to engage in more outdoor play, the winning game will be reproduced and donated to Children & Nature Network, a non-profit organization working to reconnect kids with nature.

When a natural disaster hits, the adage "every man for himself" goes out the window. People do have a tendency to work together when things look bleak, and the reaction to Charley, on and after the destructive August 13 hurricane hit Southwest Florida resorts and hotels hard, demonstrates that the hospitality and meetings industries are no exception to this rule.
For example, the Sanibel Harbor Resort in Fort Myers avoided major damage, but was still forced to shut down and likely won't reopen for business until October. Barry Brown, the resort's director of marketing, said the resort has been working with booked groups to either postpone meetings or relocate them to other hotels. "We try to stay local with it and work with the receiving hotel to try to bridge any gaps between the meeting planner and the new hotel," says Brown.
Laurie Conwell, an account manager for Medical Education Resources, a nonprofit medical education com-pany in Littleton, Colo., had 110 people scheduled to attend her seminar at the Disney Boardwalk in Orlando starting the Friday the hurricane hit.
"On Thursday, the weather didn't seem much of an issue," she said. "By Friday morning, we knew there would be bad weather. They [Disney staff] set up monitors to help us keep tabs on everything, including park closings."
The morning session ended at noon, and the parks began closing around 1:30 p.m. The hotel was forced to close its doors and shutter its restaurants, and instead provided Conwell's groups with boxed dinners.
While Conwell did end up losing local attendees from the Orlando area and from Southwest Florida, she did not lose any of her out-of-state attendees.
The impact of Hurricane Frances on meetings in the South was not available at press time.

A handheld light
Our constant quest for illumination has driven such inventions as oil lamps, batteries, phosphorescent matches, electricity, the light bulb, and, most recently, LED technology. In the late 1890s, the first flashlight was conceived for safe handheld use. Powered by a large dry-cell battery pack, it generated only enough power for the light to shine for a moment or two at a time—ergo, the name "flashlight." New York City police were among the first to use these early flashlights.

Charley charlie – The best place in town,tell charlie to call joeyD415-748-4351
Great Neighborhood Bar – This place is a real classic. We stopped by during our wanderings through the city. They made us feel right at home.
Love the people you meet in this place – This is one of my favorite bars in North Beach. Amazing too because isn't normally my kind of place. But it's small, there is a pool table (although I don't play), they have Frank and Dean and the juke box, a huge autographed Sinatra poster in the back (which I envy!!) and the people you meet here are let's just say...friends of ours...no no, very interesting.
Not pretentious at all. Drinks aren't that cheap considering, but they're about average. Just a great place to bring some friends and hang out after work.
Shshh...they also let you bring in pizza from Golden Boy next door which coincidentally is my fav. pizza in the city!!
this made our trip.we came to have the pizza served next door[which you shouldnt miss]we looked in Gino & carlo and saw sports on a big screen..3 seattle guys looking for a place to watch sports and drink. big screens and real drinks made by 'the man' Ron. a 'real' place with 2 small pool tables in back, everyone seemed to know each other.and they included us in the fun.sitting by the door watching all sorts of poeple come and go. it was the neighborhood bar. we happened to get tickets for the thursday lunch. wow...there was no experience quite like that..salad,bread, red wine,pasta and lamb/roasted chicken main course. fun laughs and comeraderie.talking with people that have been coming to thursdays for years.move the pool tables away, set up the tables and eat.. We will return on our next trip to North Beach SF
Boisterous Italian-American chums make this little watering hole a friendly North Beach find. – In Short
This neighborhood sports bar has been around since 1942, back when some of the regulars who now line the oak wood bar were just babies. Today, they play on G&C's sports teams, scarf quality Italian grub at the weekly luncheon, or yell at the game (football or baseball) on the plasma TV. The size of the mixed drinks cower in comparison to the beers, but with the bartender's heavy pour, imbibers will soon be singing "Volare" along with the jukebox.
Feels like home... – My date asked me to meet him at Gino and Carlos before we went to dinner in North Beach. I felt comfertable the moment I stepped through the door. I liked it so much I asked my date to take me there more often. I developed a crush on Frank, he's so nice! All the bartenders are cool. They make me feel like family. They even gave me coins to play my favorite songs in the juke box! I suggest checking it out before or after dinner in North Beach.
cen'tanni – i first darkened the g&c doorstep in 1990. fresh meat in the beach as a resident of varennes st, gino's had a warmth that i learned was flowing from its principal owner, donato rossi. over the years, as i grew to know donato and his family, i realized what a unique individual he is. today i helped to celebrate donato's life with a few hundred of his friends. to honor donato, i will walk dogs at the spca and tell every dog what a great man he is.
thanks, donato.
User review by jwtercero – G&C is place where you can enjoy life and not worry about what others say and do. It is always a pleasant place to be,the bartenders are all a classy bunch.
Gino and Carlo - my fave North Beach hang out – as a visitor to SFO, G&C provides a home from home. Big Time! Mix of people is perfect, low key and non of this trendy yuppie atmosphere here. I have had great conversations both with bartenders and patrons.
Gino and Carlo is great all hours of the day though it is questionable to see that the people you talked to just before closing time are also the first back in and they are not drinking coffee... BTW, the coffee at G&C is absolute crap - stick to beer or shots of Jaeger.
Just love their italian classics juke box selection. Great place to hang out, end the night and, with the odd Sinatra, even this sportsbar with pool table can get romantic in a 1950s italo-american kinda way
Ciao i a presto, guys!
the ideal nightcap – Good people and good drinks. You can learn alot about north beach through the locals that frequent the bar. Many frequenters are 2nd or 3rd generation. Overall good place to have a drink and end the night.

Behind the doors of a small gun shop in Naples, on an otherwise quiet Wednesday night, Craig Wendel prepares a round of simunition for each of his students as part of the test for a concealed weapon permit. The practice rounds made of plastic are unassuming but pack a power pop. Students take their turn firing a round at a small black and blue target.
"It's like a cap gun," Wendel explains as he monitors each student's knowledge and understanding of the weapon.
The room is filled with eight students ranging in age from 80 to 20, males and females. It's a diverse group but one thing ties all of them together — their desire to carry a concealed weapon. Wendel goes around the room asking each of his students what their experience and backgrounds are with guns. Some say they've grown up hunting all their lives while others were drug there by their boyfriends.
Wendel opened his first school nearly 20 years ago with a friend who had just gotten out of the Marine Corps. Southwest Florida at the time had no schools for security and law enforcement training so Wendel was determined to fill that void. He had the first privately owned training school in Southwest Florida called Professional Security Institute or PSI. He has trained and given seminars for law enforcement, security guards, DEA, CIA, U.S. Marshals and anyone else that needed technical training.
Wendel holds the private courses every Wednesday night at Century Arms of Naples on Airport-Pulling Road, for groups ranging from a few people up to 10 students at a time.
When you ask Wendel why he does it, he replies, "I'm passionate about it, I've got the Second Amendment tattooed on my arm. I've got guys that have been here 30 years and they always learn something. They always say, 'I never knew that.' There's always something that you don't know."
Wendel's not the shy type; he's full of jokes and in what would have been an otherwise uneventful class of laws and procedures, has his students engaged. You can tell that he has a profound understanding not only of weapons training, but also the laws that come with carrying a gun. He has a strong position on guns and the respect that goes along with owning one.
"When anything happens in this state or country and someone gets injured by a firearm, everyone's up in arms. 'Let's get rid of guns, more gun control, and more gun laws.' What we need is more education and more training," he said. "Let's train people to carry them right, to not have an accident, to know what to do with them."
As Wendel's students begin the law portion of the class you can tell that there's a bit of confusion on all the students' faces. It's not that Wendel doesn't explain it well, it's just that Florida has somewhat confusing laws. For example, one can carry a weapon on private property or at your place of business, or in you vehicle but once you leave that area a permit is required.
"People are always surprised with how easy it is to get or buy a gun in Florida," Wendel said. "I'm definitely against that. I'm for more training."
It's for this exact reason that Wendel does the classes.
"The people that take my classes are the people that want to be safe and legal," he said. "We don't need any more gun laws. Let's enforce the ones we have and let's hold people responsible for their actions. Guns don't kill people, people kill people."
It's not required in many cases to have the permit but he says his students get a piece of mind knowing that they went through the class.
As the night ends, the students file out with their permits in hand. Now comes the hard part — finding a gun that says "me."

Klaus Knopper answers your Linux questions
Ask Klaus!
Klaus Knopper is the creator of Knoppix and co-founder of LinuxTag expo. He currently works as a teacher, programmer, and consultant. If you have a configuration problem, or if you just want to learn more about how Linux works, send your questions to: email@example.com
FTP Clients Gone? Is there no graphical FTP client on Knoppix? There used to be gFTP, but it disappeared in later versions.
In fact, there still are FTP clients, although you won't find a dedicated FTP client in many distro menus anymore because the FTP and other, more secure network protocols (like SSHFS or SFTP) are now integrated into the virtual filesystem layer of the desktop, in KDE as well as Gnome. Also, the lightweight PCManFM of LXDE can use FTP through GVFS. Just enter your FTP URL like this: ftp://username@hostaddress/path/to/files

Hello there,
I have a 2g iPhone that I pwned using 188.8.131.52 and running the 2.0.2 Firmware. Occasionally when I am trying to use the web browser via Edge (T-Mobile US using wap.voicestream.com) the address bar fills blue almost immediately and the web page does not load, just a white screen. I installed the T-Mobile Carrier Bundle in Cydia and I noticed that after I did that the Cellular Data Network section under Settings->General->Network was missing. I uninstalled the T-Mobile Carrier Bundle and the Cellular Data Network section returned but I still have the web browser issue. There really is no way to resolve the issue other than shutting the phone all the way off and then powering it back on. Has anyone else seen this issue and if so, can you offer a possible reason/solution?

She nurses in between the verses of "Old Macdonald had a farm".
<Abigail 9/6/10>
You hear this: "Want mulky, mama. Want pupoo. Want one-two pupoo. Peez."
Coolest thing my big girl said recently: "How can you tell the world is moving when you are standing on it?"
Coolest thing my little girl sang recently: "I love dat one-two pupples!"
When she pulls your shirt down after nursing, announces "DONE!" very loudly and gets down off the bed shouting Aya, Aya (Lilah, Lilah ) and leaves the room.

Aw, so cute. What's pupoo?
when she puts her pink plastic bracelet around your nipple and then latches on through it
I'm a dreadlock wearing lucky SAHM to Sabeen Hunter (1/08/11) and wife to my sweet husband Amin.
DD1 called it "pupple" and DD2 picked up on it. I was hoping she'd pick another word, but looks like I am stuck with pupple/pupoo forever! Could have been worse- the way DD1 came up with "pupple" was when she was learning body parts and she pointed to my nipple and said "Whassat?" I told her it was a nipple, and she kept saying "pipple". I kept saying "nipple", trying to get her to use the correct word. Finally she switched to pupple and I let it lie, realizing that I probably did not want my kid screaming "NIPPLE!" in the middle of the grocery store.
Coolest thing my big girl said recently: "How can you tell the world is moving when you are standing on it?"
Coolest thing my little girl sang recently: "I love dat one-two pupples!"
Good choice. At least you didn't get stuck with "eat" as a name for nursing. I love the way they talk at this age. They combine words in the cutest way.
mommal that story has me . nipple!! Somewhere along the line Elena changed lechita to ita to teta. so now its like she's saying 'titty' in spanish and she has screamed it in stores

He asks to switch sides! I couldn't believe it when he looked up from the left breast, said "sides," and kept popping off until I switched to the right. Now he's heard me tell the story so many times he thinks it's hilarious & always says "sides" so we switch back & forth alot.
One time he latched on too hard and I said "ay ay ay." He thought that was pretty funny too & occasionally still says "ay ay ay" and laughs when he latches on. Oh, that sneaky sense of humor.

Barcelona midfielder Xavi Hernandez does not believe Jose Mourinho will earn his place in football history.
• Xavi criticises Madrid attitude
• Arbeloa plays down tension talk
Mourinho is one of only three coaches, along with Ernst Happel and Ottmar Hitzfeld, to have won the Champions League with two different clubs and could stand out on his own if he leads Real Madrid to their tenth European crown.
Xavi, though, believes Mourinho's pragmatic approach to management means he will not be ranked in the same category as Pep Guardiola for future generations.
"Mourinho will not go down in football history," he told Reserved Area on Canal+. "For me, Guardiola is the best and has been the best during the four years he spent in charge.
"He has revolutionised football. Chelsea won the Champions League this year and yet Barca remain the benchmark for world football."
Xavi also said that Lionel Messi would be the only deserving recipient of this year's FIFA Ballon d'Or.
There have been suggestions that Cristiano Ronaldo, having helped Madrid to La Liga, could take the crown if he excels at Euro 2012 but Xavi said of Messi: "He's the best player I've seen in my life.
"It would be an injustice if any other player won the Ballon d'Or, because no other player is at his level. Messi has helped me to become a better player."

Apple shares are getting killed after Apple fell short of Wall Street expectations with its earnings report. Shares started sliding in September, dropping from $705 to about $514 just before the earnings came out. And then, when investors saw the numbers, the bottom fell out and Apple stock plunged more than $50, settling at $460. They may drop more today once the market opens, since all the analysts on Wall Street are bashing Apple.
Which raises the question: Is now the time to buy Apple?
Keep in mind that investors have made a lot of money by buying Apple when things looked bleak for the company. Also keep in mind that right now, by every measure, Apple stock is ridiculously cheap.
The Numbers
The company has $140 billion in the bank, and a market value of $483 billion. That in itself makes no sense.
Apple stock is trading at 11.6 times trailing 12 months earnings. That's cheaper than IBM, which trades at 14 times trailing earnings, and Microsoft, trading at 15. It's half the multiple that Google is carrying (23). It's a fraction of what Facebook is selling for (160 times trailing earnings). It's nearly as cheap as Dell, which is trading at 9 times earnings and doing so poorly that the company is considering going private in a buyout.
Apple is cheaper than Johnson & Johnson (19) and Procter & Gamble (20) and Hershey (17.6) and McDonald's (17.6). In fact Apple is cheaper than the S&P 500 (currently trading at 17 times earnings), cheaper than the NASDAQ (20.6), cheaper than the Dow Jones Industrials (15).
Do you really think Apple is a worse company, or has a less bright future, than the average company on a stock index?
Well, that's what Wall Street is saying.
Apple is cheap, cheap, cheap. This is bargain basement, fire sale pricing.
Negative Sentiment
Better yet, everyone on Wall Street is going negative. Jim Cramer says Apple has lost its magic. Nomura says Apple is entering its "ex-growth" era. Investor Jeff Gundlach says Apple is heading to $425 and could go as low as $300.
TheStreet.com says Tim Cook sounded like the former CEO of RIM when he did a call with analysts last night. A very bullish Apple analyst has lowered his target price for the year ahead, though he still rates the stock a Buy.
All you Apple fanbloggers who are saying that there's nothing wrong with Apple, and that "Apple didn't miss, Wall Street did" - are you ready to put your money where your mouth is?
Seriously, who's buying? Are you? Let's hear the bullish case for Apple.

The village of Ouirgane is nestled in a truly beautiful valley surrounded by forested hills.
We have been sending people to La Roseraie for over 30 years and are great fans of this wonderful place. Set in a stunning mountain location only one hour from Marrakech, La Roseraie is a mountain retreat hotel. The village of Ouirgane is nestled in a very beautiful valley surrounded by forested hills.
This family-owned hotel, which was built in 1970, is lovingly managed by a father and son team. The rooms, which are scattered around the gardens, are very comfortable. Some have fireplaces, all have access to terraces and gardens. The beautiful gardens are probably the most loved feature of the hotel and are ideal for relaxing with a book or just lying in the shade of a tree, by the pool. The restaurant serves good simple Moroccan and international food and there is also a large Moroccan dining room, decorated in true classical Moroccan style, with lovely fireplaces, looking out over well cared for rose gardens.
La Roseraie is the only Atlas mountain hotel to offer a full onsite spa, complete with heated indoor swimming pool which is equipped with power jets for hydro massage, a large Jacuzzi, traditional hammam with private scrubbing tables, sauna, gym and rest area to enjoy a mint tea whilst lounging in comfortable chairs after a steamy hammam and scrub.
Horse riding is available at La Roseraie from the riding centre in the grounds. Walking or riding through the surrounding hills is a pleasure worth indulging in. Donkey rides can also be reserved at the reception and mountain guides are available if you wish.
La Roseraie is the ultimate in Moroccan mountain retreats. Reliably good and run by people with a true passion for nature which can be felt in the warm welcome received on arrival. Go there.. you will want to stay there!
** There are lots of photos of La Roseraie in the slideshow above, please look through them all to get a good idea of the extensive features of this hotel**
From Anna Barez-Brown who stayed here in March 2014
La Roseraie was a place a bit too simple for us at first but we fell in love with it after one night. The birds, plants and the layout really worked well and I loved the food and service even if it is slow but one gets used to the pace and it calms you down. Hiking in the Atlas Mountains was great.
From Johnathan Reekie who stayed here in February 2014
La Roseraie is essentially a very nice hotel. Our only criticism is that the food is OK but not really better than that.
From Sara R who stayed here in October 2013
La Roseraie - really lovely - we had a fantastic suite (with probably the biggest bed in the world!). The gardens, grounds and pool were wonderful and the whole place became magical at night. Food was simple but there was plenty of choice and we really enjoyed the dinners - breakfasts tended to be a little chaotic as either nothing came for a while or everything came at once - wasn't a particular problem, but a full buffet style would probably work better and mean less waste
From mary C-C who stayed here in October 2013
I also enjoyed the riding at La Roseraie - I had also been there before - I stayed there over millennium new year and Hassan, the stable manager remembered me from back then. I had a marginally hilarious lunch in a Berber village where I was ensconced in solitary splendour in a little room, decked with slightly gaudy, faux-lux cushions and drapes. I was served a huge tagine, couscous and, bizarrely, an omelet - all of which I had to eat without knife or fork...........
From Andy A who stayed here in September 2013
Lovely setting, fab garden, good food in the evenings. We enjoyed the day horse riding but, as good riders ourselves, would say it would be pretty challenging (ie steep) for a beginner/novice rider. We did not do the full day walk as we felt it would cover much of the same ground, and I was tempted by the pool! Service was a little haphazard especially at lunchtimes, and I was rather surprised to find two full-size raw leeks, two large potatos and an iceberg lettuce in my 'assiette du crudities'! Those of us raised on Fawlty Towers could laugh it off; other nationalities might be more grumpy. To be fair, there were only four other guests in the entire place, so atmosphere/concentration were a bit lacking. On reflection, one night two days would have been enough - but, a lovely spot to be after the Marrakech madness.
From Victoria D who stayed here in September 2013
We enjoyed La Roseraie and the mountains very much, but could have done with a little more sun. The staff were charming. The gardens were superb.
From Virginia G who stayed here in September 2013
La Roseraie - We loved our rooms and the hotel in general. We went horse riding. it was magical, and my son went too ( I know the owner said under 12's not allowed for health and safety reasons, but Hassan who owns the horses was excellent) The owner also drove us to Marrakech and he was really interesting and added to our understanding of the area enormously.
The food was a bit hit and miss. Either very good or inedible! They could definitely work on that.
If the pools were warmer it would have improved the holiday for the children a lot. Most importantly though, the trek we went on was not suitable for us. The language barrier meant that we could not ascertain how far or how long we were going for. Don't get me wrong, it was very interesting, but 4 hours and 15 kilometers is too far for children without mule support ( especially when they're only 5).
From Sue O who stayed here in September 2013
La Roseraie was good but the pools were too cold for swimming. I thought that they were meant to be heated but we enjoyed just sitting & looking after a very quick dip the first day. Transport all went to plan & we found everyone friendly.
From Laura W who stayed here in September 2013
La Roseraie is a gem, though of a very different kind. At first we weren't too sure, it's a bit like the Faulty Towers of Morocco but I say that in the nicest possible way. It is quirky, but by the end of our stay we almost liked it more than Les Deux Tours. The visit to the market in Asni was certainly much more enjoyable than the souk in Marrakesh and I am very glad we ventured away from the city.
From Andy A who stayed here in September 2013
La Roserie hotel in the mountains: Lovely setting, fab garden, good food in the evenings. We enjoyed the day horse riding but, as good riders ourselves, would say it would be pretty challenging (ie steep) for a beginner/novice rider. We did not do the full day walk as we felt it would cover much of the same ground, and I was tempted by the pool!

On reflection, one night two days would have been enough - but, a lovely spot to be after the Marrakech madness.
All in all, a great fun trip to a great destination just three hours flight away. Thanks for organising it all so well.
From Marcelle S who stayed here in March 2013
The rooms and the food were very good in la Roseriae and the staff very friendly. The gardens were spectacular and the pool great - if still a bit cold! I certainly hope to go back and will recommned Lawrence of Morroco to my friends.
From Alick S who stayed here in March 2013
My wife and I are keen to return to the La Roseriae. Next time we will build an itinerary with a car and include the desert. I have processed my photos and added them to my website.
From Rosie S who stayed here in March 2013
The Roseraie was a wonderful setting and the walking guide provided was lovely - we had a really good whole day's trek. Although the breakfasts there were good, we didn't feel the dinners lived up to their reputation - also, there was nothing vegetarian on the main course menu - they were happy to make something on request although it did make me feel a bit of a nuisance. (I wasn't the only vegetarian staying there at the time.)
From Paul B who stayed here in March 2013
• Very few guests – almost our own private hotel
• Amazing grounds, lovely bedroom, great staff
• Breakfast OK – plentiful home-made breads
• Salads at lunchtime superb and enormous
• Dinner a bit variable but good overall – the odd strange combination, e.g. chips + rice + pasta with meat
• Not always possible to change money (if person i/c not there) * but bill payable in sterling
• No information in room. There should be details of local walks, birdlife etc. The schematic diagram of the walks, available at Reception, was of little use and it was almost impossible not to get lost.
From Peter M-A who stayed here in January 2013
We really had a wonderful time, everyone was so helpful, and the locations were amazing. Patsy really enjoyed riding with Hassan and the stables were beautifully looked after. Many thanks for a wonderful trip, and we will be back to book again later this year.
From Kim T who stayed here in November 2012
La Roseraie was peaceful and good quality. We got upgraded when we asked for a room with a fireplace, which was nice because it was a little cold in the evenings,as we expected. The manager didn't make his presence felt much which didn't bother us much, but might be important to less seasoned travellers. The evening meals were very good, plenty to eat and quite varied. The breakfast was minimal i.e. continental style with fresh breads, jams etc. but they also put out processed cheeses and meats under cellophane (a slight downer we thought). The staff were attentive and friendly and we really enjoyed our trips out in the hire car….the drive from Amizmiz back to Ouirgane was absolutely hair-raising and unforgettable!
From William Forde who stayed here in October 2012
Regarding La Roseraie, I would add all of the following remarks which are all positive:
1. The standard was excellent.
2. All of the service from the food, accommodation, service, price of food were good and faultless.
The single aspect which separates the La Roseraie from any other hotel that I have ever stayed at during my 70 years on this earth ( and one that almost every hotel could benefit learning from), was the attitude and general temperament of the staff from cook's washer through to house maid, gardener, stablehand, waiters, cook, manager and even the proprietor who welcomed us. In short, everyone who worked at La Roseraie were always happy in whatever situation one observed them in (both within and outside the presence of the guest). This of itself was the single-most-important memory that will stay with me when I recall Morocco and our stay there. If Nabil the owner could bottle that magic and sell it to every other hotel in the world, he would benefit the travelling world greatly.

text: Frank Holdmeyer Archives Email Author Farm Bill Top Priority for American Farm Bureau Federation President Bob Stallman sets stage for 88th annual meeting. Published on: Jan 8, 2007 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print 2006 was a good year for issues of concern to members of the American Farm Bureau Federation, according to Bob Stallman, president. At a press conference on Sunday he cited improvements in international trade, resolving BSE issues in the United States and legislation to help protect the rights of property owners as successes. But Stallman, a cattle producer from Columbus, Texas, says there were some disappointments as well. "Attacks on the livestock industry continue and we are going to have to fight to keep a healthy livestock industry in this country." Regarding the deadlocked DOHA round of international trade negotiations, Stallman said, "We haven't given up hope. We continue to look for a successful outcome of that round but we are not going to 'give away the farm' in the process. It has to be an agreement that's good for American agriculture." The 2007 Farm Bill is probably the major topic being discussed here this week during the 88th annual AFBF convention. Stallman said he is optimistic about getting a new farm bill passed this year because "the playing field has changed with Democrats taking control of Congress. We have a good working relationship with the new chairmen of both the Senate and House Ag Committees." "We are not waiting to see what the USDA is proposing for the 2007 Farm Bill," said Bob Stallman, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation at a news conference Sunday. "We are moving ahead with our own policy development resolutions." With regard to funding for the 2007 Farm Bill, "in my opinion, we are better off with a Democratic Congress than perhaps we would have been with the Republicans. We won't see a major change in the farm bill, however. Farm policy tends to be evolutionary rather than revolutionary and I don't see anything that makes me change my mind as to how this will unfold. It's difficult to make radical changes because the law of unintended consequences is always out there waiting to bite you. I think we will have some changes, but it's difficult to believe we would have a wholesale elimination of Title 1 programs. "Funding will still be an issue, however, and the ag budget has a big target on it. It's up to us to defend why we need the funding for those programs," he added. When asked whether Congress will be able pass a farm bill with WTO trade talks stalled, Stallman replied, "Congress does have to pay attention to current WTO rules. But Congress probably should not, from our standpoint, try to craft a farm bill that fits some sort of preconceived negotiating stance as we continue the WTO negotiations. A farm bill needs to be passed, taking into account WTO negotiations, but also written to address the needs of U.S. agriculture." Recent winter storms that killed or stranded cattle in states like Colorado, Kansas and Nebraska will probably put a little more pressure on Congress to provide disaster assistance as part of the farm bill, according to Stallman. "It just points out once again that agriculture is subject to the fickle nature of weather in terms of economic disaster. It highlights the need for economic assistance for producers and helps increase the chances of getting some permanent disaster assistance as part of the farm bill." Regarding immigration reform, Stallman said the AFBF is "somewhat optimistic. Given what President Bush has said about his guest worker program and with Democrats taking control of the House, I believe it will be easier to pass comprehensive immigration reform. There are a lot of elements to that but the one we have to address is a way to provide an adequate labor force for American agriculture." Throughout the next few days convention delegates will work on resolutions as to where AFBF stands on these issues. Resolutions will be formally adopted on Wednesday. Stallman pointed out that this process is surprising to farm organizations in places like Europe and Australia. "Leaders in those countries have told me they can't believe we open our decision making process up the media."

Dontari Poe
Round 1, Pick 11
WT: 350 lbs.
40 Time: 4.9
Conference: Conference USA
Biography: Three-year starter awarded all-conference honors as a senior after totaling 33 tackles/8 tackles for loss/1 sacks. Junior totals included 41/6.5/2.
Positives: Massive lineman with outstanding movement skills. Relatively quick off the snap, plays with good pad level and easily holds the point. Stays on his feet, gets off blocks and is a smooth athlete who displays the ability to make plays in space. Easily moves up and down the line of scrimmage or gets out to the flanks chasing the action. Effortlessly changes direction and plays with a lot of quickness. Constantly doubled or focused on by opponents in the middle of the line.
Negatives: Despite his size, is not an overpowering lineman and lacks dominant strength for a big man. At times, he gets knocked off the ball or easily ridden from his angle of attack by a single blocker.
Analysis: Poe is a tremendous combination of size, athleticism and movement skills. He offers a huge amount of upside but needs to get stronger and show the power expected from a 340-pound defender. He offers possibilities at a number of defensive line positions in a variety of schemes at the next level and can be a dominant force if he continues to improve and plays to his potential.

The Dhammapada

- Paperback: $11.00 add to cart
A lucid translation of the seminal work of Buddhism.
One of the oldest and most revered texts in Buddhism, The Dhammapada was compiled in the third century BC, and is newly translated here. It forms part of the oldest surviving body of Buddhist writings, the canonical texts, regarded as part of the authentic teachings of the Buddha himself-spoken by him and memorized and compiled for oral transmission shortly after his death. The verses in The Dhammapada encompass the struggle toward Nirvana-the supreme goal for the Buddhist-and point out the narrow Path of Perfection that leads to it.
