Jail walls and emergency calls on the list for Carter County during 2012
By Max Hrenda
Although Carter County saw plenty of change in 2012, some stories stood out.
One of the most-discussed stories of the year concerned the construction and opening of the Carter County Jail.
After nearly a decade of discussion, design, and construction, the sheriff's department prepared to movie into the jail in the spring of 2012.
What county officials referred to as construction errors and design flaws kept the sheriff's department busy for the next several months. The facility was opened for a tour in mid-June, and county officials walked side-by-side with the general public to see what their tax dollars had wrought. What they saw included numerous issues, such as cracked floors, leaky faucets, and a wall partially covering an in-wall freezer's control panel.
The prisoners were transferred from the old jail to the new in late June. Even after that, a range of issues continued to plague the jail.

Beef O'Brady's Bowl – UCF vs. Ball State Picks

The New Mexico Bowl will play itself out in Albuquerque on Saturday afternoon in the first bowl betting battle of the year, as the Nevada Wolf Pack take on the Arizona Wildcats.

2013 BCS National Championship Game Set: Alabama vs. Notre Dame
The 2013 National Championship Game isn't quite officially set at this point, but on Sunday night when the final BCS rankings come out, we will see that the No. 1 Notre Dame Fighting Irish will be taking on the No. 2 Alabama Crimson Tide in a battle of the two teams that really have been the best in the nation this year.
Texas vs. Kansas State Picks
The 2012 Big XII Championship could be handed out on Saturday night in the "Little Apple," where the Kansas State Wildcats hope to hold on as heavy favorites on the college football betting odds against the Texas Longhorns.
Texas has really had a tale of a few seasons this year. The team started off winning games in solid fashion, and then it hit a midseason lull that was capped off by a dismal 63-21 loss to the hated Oklahoma Sooners in the Red River Rivalry.
Alabama vs. Georgia Picks
It's the de facto national semifinal, and it comes in the SEC Championship Game on Saturday afternoon at the Georgia Dome. College football betting fans have to love the fact that they can sink their teeth into this one, as the No. 2 team in the land, the Alabama Crimson Tide take on the No. 3 team in the country, the Georgia Bulldogs for the right to win the SEC and move on to the National Championship Game.

The Cincinnati Bearcats and UConn Huskies will finish out their regular season with a meeting in Connecticut this Saturday afternoon.

That loss ruined their chances of winning the conference title. Let's take a look at this Big East matchup.

After a slightly disappointing 5-2 start to the season, Oklahoma has won four straight to get to 9-2 on the year.

The Horned Frogs are looking to end their first season in the Big 12 with an upset win at home.

The Koran
With Parallel Arabic Text
N. J. Dawood - Translator
- Paperback: $13.00 add to cart
The Koran, as N. J. Dawood states, is 'not only one of the most influential books of prophetic literature but also a literary masterpiece in its own right. Universally accepted by Muslims to be the infallible Word of God as revealed to Mohammed by the Angel Gabriel nearly fourteen hundred years ago, the Koran still provides the rules of conduct fundamental to the Arab way of life. N. J. Dawood's masterly translation, first published in the mid-1950s and now completely revised in the light of a life-long study of the language and style of the Koran, presents the English reader with a clear, fluent and authoritative rendering, while fully reflecting the characteristic flavour and rhythm of the original. The present edition follows the original sequence of the Koranic suras and is accompanied by a comprehensive index and a parallel Arabic text.

The roof on Tom Gorski's garage had rotted through, and the Villa Park resident knew it was time for a new one.
A major impediment stood in the way.
Towering above his backyard, a century-old maple stood about a foot from the garage.
In the spring, Gorski decided it was time for the tree to go.
The way he viewed it, cutting down the tree would help contractors gain access to the garage, and also would put the aging maple out of its misery.
Call it arboreal euthanasia.
After asking friends and relatives for suggestions, Gorski called Cutting Edge Tree Service and Landscape of Elmhurst, owned by Tom Harder.
"The guy was recommended by my wife's cousin," Gorski said. "We went with him."
On April 19, Harder arrived to assess the situation. "He said 'I'll do it the next day,'" Gorski said.
True to his word, Harder returned April 20. He asked for $2,000 — half in cash, half in a check — which Gorski thought was reasonable. Gorski said his wife paid Harder upfront, and Harder got to work cutting down the old tree.
Well, most of it anyway.
After cutting the maple down to about 6 feet, Harder said his chain saw was too small to cut the rest, Gorski said.
"It seemed like a legitimate excuse," Gorski said. "He said he had a bigger saw but it was broken. He said he'd be back the next week."
Weeks passed and the 6-foot stump remained.
"Every time I called him, he had an excuse," Gorski said. "He was sick, then we had the storm and he used the storm damage as an excuse."
As time passed Gorski grew frustrated. Over the summer, he filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
"He was not happy about that," Gorski said. "He called me every swear word in the book."
The BBB eventually closed the complaint without resolution, and gives Cutting Edge Tree Service and Landscape its lowest grade, an F.
Gorski said he tried calling Harder over the summer and into the fall, but Harder either ignored or blocked his calls.
Stuck with a 6-foot tree stump and no indication it would ever be removed, Gorski emailed What's Your Problem? in late October.

If you haven't noticed I make and eat a lot of ice cream. As a kid I would come home from school and literally eat a pint of ice cream for an after school snack. I would even create my own flavors by mixing add-ins into the store bought ice creams. I guess that is where not being able to absorb calories comes in handy. Since going gluten-free I can't eat that much ice cream any more, but I still enjoy creating my own flavors. So this months Daring Baker's Challenge was right up my alley.
The July 2010 Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Sunita of Sunita's world – life and food. Sunita challenged everyone to make an ice-cream filled Swiss roll that's then used to make a bombe with hot fudge. Her recipe is based on an ice cream cake recipe from Taste of Home.
My swiss roll creation consists of a almond swiss roll, rolled with strawberry semifreddo, filled with brown sugar gelato, coconut "fudge sauce" with toasted almonds for crunch and peach sorbet.
Now compared to my previous challenges you may say that these flavors seem very pedestrian, but sometimes you want to savor the flavors of the season in their pure form. We have been getting fantastic peaches from our fruit CSA (Frog Hollow Farms). I made ice cream a couple of weeks ago, but in my opinion height of the season fruity goodness is too diluted by the cream. In this instance, I am a sorbet girl. Pure peachy goodness.
Besides the peach sorbet, I really enjoyed the almond swiss roll cake and the coconut "fudge sauce" Those will be repeats in my house...well as repeated as things get here.
Almond Sponge Roll:
Adapted from Rose Levy Berenbaum
- 1 1/2 T cornstarch
- 1/2 T tapioca starch
- 1 T fine rice flour
- 1/3 cup (35 grams) almond meal
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 large (20 grams) egg yolk, room temperature
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) plus 1 tablespoon (15 grams) granulated white sugar
- 1/2 t almond extract
- 1/2 t vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- powdered sugar for sprinkling
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a jelly roll pan (17 inch x 12 inch) with parchment and grease the parchment with butter or cooking spray.
- Mix together flours and almond meal, set aside.
- Separate two of the eggs.
- To the yolks as the remaining eggs and third yolk. Place in the bowl of a stand mixer and with the paddle attachment, beat with all but 2 T of the sugar until light fluffy and creamy, and a ribbon slowly absorbs back into the batter when drizzled on top.
- Add extracts and finish beating.
- Gently fold in the flour mixture into the yolks.
- In a clean bowl with a whisk attachment, whip the egg whites with the cream of tartar first on low, then gradually increase the speed to high until soft peaks form.
- Add the sugar to the egg whites and whip on high until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture.
- Spread batter evenly and gently in the jelly roll pan.
- Bake immediately for 6-8 minutes or until it springs back when touched.
- When you take it out of the oven, sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar and place a clean towel on the top, and a sheet pan with the bottom touching the towel on top of the towel. Flip over. Peel the parchment off of the cake, then roll leaving the towel on the cake. Allow to cool completely before filling with the semifreddo.
- To fill, gently unroll, remove the towel, spread on the semifreddo and roll up. Chill for 2 or more hours to allow the semifreddo to set before slicing.
- 1 cup strawberry puree
- 2 t gelatin
- 1 cup very cold, heavy cream
- sugar if needed
- Sprinkle the gelatin on top of 1/4 cup of puree in a small bowl and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
- Melt in the microwave for 10 seconds, then fold into the strawberry puree.
- At this point add sugar if the strawberries need it. Remember the cake and ice creams are sweet, so this doesn't need to be too sweet.
- Set over an ice bath, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken but has not fully set.
- Meanwhile, whip cream to stiff peaks.
- When the strawberries have thickened, fold in the whipping cream and place in the refrigerator until it is spreadable, but not runny.
- 1 C granulated white sugar
- 3 TBS. cornstarch1 ½ C coconut milk
1 T unsalted butter, cold
1 tsp coconut extract
- 1 cup almonds, dry toasted and chopped
- Mix sugar and cornstarch together in a saucepan. Then whisk in coconut milk.
- Heat mixture, stirring often, over medium heat until it comes to a full boil. Depending on your coconut milk it may turn clear - that is OK.
- Remove from the head and add butter. Stir to incorporate fully.
- Add extract and almonds, and allow to cool to room temperature before using.
- 1 lb peaches
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 t almond extract
- 1 T vodka (optional) OR 1/8 t xanthan gum (optional)
- Blend peaches to a fine puree. You can peel the peaches if you wish for a smoother product.
- Take 1 cup of the peaches and add sugar. Adjust the amount based on the sweetness of your peaches, but you want a sweet base.
- Heat over medium heat until it comes to a boil.
- Remove from heat and add in the remaining peaches.
- Add extract and vodka or xanthan gum if using. Xanthan will require blending.
- Allow to chill overnight before churning.
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup dry milk (it makes a less icy product, but is optional)
- 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 T cornstarch
- 1 t kosher salt
- 1 t vanilla extract.
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Mix together yolks and cornstarch. Set aside.
- Mix together milk, dry milk and brown sugar a sauce pan, whisk in egg mixture and heat over medium until it comes to a boil, whisking often.
- Remove from heat. Add salt, vanilla extract, and then add cream.
- Allow to cool completely, then chill overnight before churning.

New Owner Kristine Rosen Has Found Her Calling
RIDGWAY – Kristine Rosen's dog, Midnight Blue, came over and sat on my lap. He didn't jump up into my lap; he sidled up and rested his black-and-white Great Dane haunches on my thigh.
Rosen laughed from the grooming table at the center of her cozy space at the Soggy Dog, the dog and cat grooming business in Ridgway's Trail Town that she bought and reopened last fall. "Danes do that," she said.
Then she told me the derivation of Midnight Blue's name. "He's a rescue dog. I was working intake at the Dumb Friends League in Denver when he came in at midnight, and he had a sad look on his face." He still has the sad-eyed look, but now it's a brown-eyed, soulful, well-loved look.
"You're doing so good!" she told the bichon-schnauzer named Sadie who was getting an overall trim on the table. "Are you ready for your face? Yeah, you're OK," she said as the creature trembled slightly, "you're all matted!" Sadie's mom, Cider, was watching intently from a nearby kennel. She'd had her bath and would be next up for a haircut.
Rosen's voice, and touch, are soothing, sure. She's a real-life Dr. Doolittle: She speaks to the animals directly and, as she says, "knows how they feel."
This is a person who has found her calling. "I do love what I do," she said. "I'm in my forties. I wish I'd learned this in my twenties, but …." she trailed off in characteristic good humor.
Rosen was born in Los Angeles, but moved soon to Colorado's Front Range, for her father's job with Martin Marietta Aerospace. She studied fine art in school – "oils and clay." But, she said, "You have to be dead to sell your art! This is art to me," she said, trimming the long hairs from between Sadie's toes.
Rosen and her husband, Matt, who is a salesman and still based in Centennial, came over to the Western Slope thanks to friends in Telluride, Bo Bedford and Josh Geetter. "I think they knew each other through jam-band circles, Widespread Panic, Leftover Salmon," she said. "It was Joshua who told us this business was for sale."
Rosen's experience at the Dumb Friends League included grooming, "And I loved it! So I started doing more pet grooming." She went to grooming school at Central Bark Pet Grooming Academy, in Denver. And now here she is, practicing her art.
"Come on, sweetie. I've got to get this piece behind your ear."
"I'd like this to be a kind of mini Petco," she said, thinking out loud about the future. "I'd like to sell dog food here. All the dog treats we have in here are 'Colorado Proud,' like the Zuke's (Power Bones and Mini Naturals) from Durango. I'd like to have doggy socializing, here too. We did a couple of events so far, since we opened. We did a 'Yappy Hour' with treats for people and dogs. And we hosted a 'Howliday Party' over Christmas.
"Every dog I do gets its picture on our Facebook page, and we have a dog of the month award."
Rosen finished up trimming Sadie's ears and chin, then tied a bandana around her neck before putting her in the kennel and bringing out Cider. "Every dog goes home with a homemade bandana,that I make myself. I like to make their lives special."
Soggy Dog offers full grooming services, from $20 up to $75 "for a Newfoundland," Rosen said, laughing again. "People don't usually groom cats, but I do!" A bath and brush ranges from $15-$60. And she has a self-wash option. "For $10, you can come in, I'll show you how to do it, and you can wash your own dog. You supply the dog, I supply the rest. And do the cleanup!"
Midnight Blue was reluctant to leave his three-legged perch on my knee. "Go lie down," Rosen said. "Go to your bed. Go lie down, and I'll give you a treat."
Without unweighting his hips, he turned his face to mine. I didn't want to remove my hand from his silky, black flank.
The Soggy Dog is located at 248 Palomino Trail in Ridgway and can be reached at (970)318-1330 and at firstname.lastname@example.com.

I love all your sensory boxes! How many different ones do you have ? and Do you keep them all in storage? At my daughters preschool they have pretty awesome sensory bins, but not his cool! I wonder if there is a business in this? You could sell different themed ones! My daughter would absolutely love this apple bin! They are a work of art!

PS Does your older daughter play with the sensory boxes too?

- pink and green mama MaryLea said...
@ Melissa -- I usually keep 2-3 different sensory boxes going at a time in our house/playroom. I store the "ingredients" in ziplock bags on a shelf in the garage and some things are from our playroom/toy stash or my kitchen so I just raid those places for "ingredients" as necessary!
And YES, YES, YES!! My older daughter absolutely plays with them as does EVERY child who comes to our house regardless of their ages. Grown ups like them too! ; ) But my older daughter would not be happy with me for letting that secret out!
I have a Pinterest board going with different sensory box ideas including my own. Sounds like it's time for another sensory box post with more details!

Avanafil is a type of medication that can
be taken orally, this medication is to treat erectile
dysfunction. Erectile Dysfunction is when a male is unable
to have a penile erection. This pill is FDA approved since
April of 2012. In order for an individual to get this pill
they need to have a full workup from their doctor, once
their doctor feels that they qualify for this pill then they
will give them a prescription. Common individuals who use
this drug are normally men who are in the middle aged group
along with elderly men.
When it comes to the dosing of this medication most
individuals will start off with 100 mg that they are allowed
to take once a day. An individual would need to take this
medication at least a half an hour before their conduct in
any sexual activity. If needed an individual's doctor can up
their dose, but this depends on how the patient is
functioning on the medication. An individual should not take
more than what their doctor prescribes them, if this were to
happen the individual would need to seek immediate health
attention, so that they do not have a heart attack or
stroke. Taking an overdose on medication can be harmful to
anyone; this is why it is always important to follow the

Overall Avanafil is a safe medication that is recommended
from doctors. This medication helps men who are 40 years are
older get their love life back on track, or at least become
sexually active again. There is no shame in needing a little
extra help to perform in the bedroom; however it would be a
shame if a male were not to perform in the bedroom for their
wife, because they are afraid to get the help. If an
individual is taking this medication they need to remember
to follow the exact instructions and never over do it.

I liked the part where we got a brodus clay comedy spot, a heath slater comedy spot, a santino comedy spot, and a horrible 5 minute kelly kelly match, but we couldn't have fucking daniel bryan in a match.
But on the plus side, the crowd during the Orton/Kane match alternated between chanting boring and Daniel Bryan.
Punk/Jericho was good,HH/Taker was good, Cena/Rock was good, but Rock got blown up during it because he hasn't had a singles match in like 8 years.
So let me talk again about Bryan/Sheamus.
The crowd was effectively dead for the next match because of it, you do not start your show off by making a joke out of a champion. You do not take the best wrestling in your company and refuse to even give him a match.
Im glad the crowd didn't give a shit for the next 30 minutes, they deserved that silence for rock stupid booking.
If you want to build a story at mania do it during the course of a match.
Christ that pissed me off.
Nothing's gonna happen without a warning
I have a comic book podcast, my name is Luro on it. Please listen for the good of mankind.
The only thing i can hope coming out of the Daniel Bryan match is that he snaps and starts beating the shit out of everyone now.
But im sure instead Sheamus will feud with fucking Kane or some other loser with no future.
Im still angry.
And ive already heard the arguements. They had no time because of xyz, they had to cut something and the most it could have got because of the long matches was 5 minutes.
But think about it, this didn't help Sheamus either. This mania was suppose to introduce new guys to the casual audience, so you took Sheamus and had him beat Daniel Bryan by a kick, he didn't look great, Bryan looked horrible. What was gained from this?

Because honestly, the WWE bookers had the nerve to pull this crap back then. Though at least they didn't have the sheer balls to do it during a 50 dollar pay per view event, never mind it being their 'biggest event'. Cause really, I doubt they could tell Daniel Bryan and his fans "fuck you" any better if they'd had someone drive a septic truck out and spray him down with crap after the loss.

I haven't seen it (read the spoilers) but waaaaay too much of the card looks like the kind of stuff you'd find on a random RAW card. Call me old fashioned, but for me almost every match at Mania should be a big blowoff to a notable feud.
And the Bryan/Sheamus fiasco... I'm still not sure that's not the internet playing a delayed April Fools joke on me.
The Jaw Squad is dead. Long live the Jaw.
Hell, at least the poor Goldberg vs. Lesner match at Wrestlemania XX can be blamed on Goldberg and Lesner just not caring, both leaving the company for other work. This was a DELIBERATE crap match people paid 50-65 bucks to see. To say nothing of the fans that paid money to be in the arena.

Apparently they wanted to set a record for fastest world title change at Mania, to beat Chavo losing to Kane in 8 seconds, but the ref rung the bell too early, he was meant to ring it after Daniel was kissed on the cheek, not before. So they botched the record attempt and made the match meaningless and the title a curtain jerking prop for nothing basically.
I wonder what Meltzer will rate the taker/hhh and jericho/punk matches.

Started week 2 today with my UBWO. Thoroughly enjoyed my free day on yesterday. Even had egg nog....yum. Back to the plan this morning!~ Have a great week!!
HI Karen, I put on weight too, but I have lost some cm off my waist which is far more important for me! :)
Feeling much better and was able to do my workout this morning with no problem!! Thanks so much!!
Rainy day blues. Got on the treadmill, lasted two minutes, got off. Legs tired, back hurt, just not ready to run this early a.m.! So sit now in work, figuring a good time later in the day to try again. Can't miss my cardio.
Hope everyone has a great day!
Good morning! Very nice LBWO last night, looking forward to cardio tonight after work. I am trying to stop by the gym on the way home to do my workouts, because once I get in the house I seem to get trapped in the gravity well and can't get back out!
Scale is still moving in the right direction, but I am still really p****d off about where I started - should never have gotten that bad!
Congrats to those of you who are seeing the scale move down. This morning I wanted to trash mine! I am a bit frustrated, well actually no, I am VERY frustrated with what my scale had to say. I know things don't happen overnight, but in a week I expect to see some change. Am I being too impatient?? However, my clothes seem to fit a little looser, but I'm scared to take my measurements in case I don't like what it says either! lol. Patience does not come easily to me.
But, I'll just keep on doing my workouts in the hope that soon I will see results. I definately feel better, and after the free day, I realized that I didn't feel so good with some of my food choices. So that's a positve to keep eating healthy!
Good luck everyone with the workouts and healthy eating this week!
Oh, I am sure I will hit the point where the scale is not my friend. I had actually been trying to lose this weight literally for months and months, and nothing that I had done before was working. I lost about 40 pounds 7 years ago, and have maintained with fluctuations that whole time - I would gain 10 pounds or even 20, then get mad, go back on the diet that I used to lose it the first time, and go back to around my goal weight.
But since the first part of this year I have been unable to lose weight at all - I got pretty sendentary after a minor fall running with the dogs left me with bruised ribs and I could barely move, plus this fall I had a terrible bout of asthma and they put me on steroids - whatever the excuses, I worked and worked the diet and could not lose an ounce (in fact, my weight crept up to almost where I was before I lost the weight in the first place, ugh).
It was not my commitment or effort that was to blame (unlike some times in the past) - my body simply would not give up the weight, no matter what I was doing. I figured that I needed to really work the exercise in order to finally get healthy again, not just a little or just aerobic, but serious weight training like I did in my 20's. So I pulled up the BFL site, looked at it for the 100th or so time, and finally decided to really do it this time (even took before pics - yikes!)
So I am sure that soon enough I will be back to the point where I will have to get my satisfaction from how I am starting to look and feel and how my clothes fit, instead of what the scale says. I am guessing I was holding onto a ton of water from the steroids and sedentary lifestyle, and that is a lot of what has come off in the past week.
Be patient! And then feel free to gloat when the scale DOES show you what you want to see!!!!
I'm also a 42 yr. old mom. It's been hard with a little one to chase, tired is a state of being. I've never done this before so I hope to do well and stay motivated.
I was wondering . . . do all of you work out in the morning on an empty stomach and then wait an hour after your workout to eat? I am doing great with the eating part, but I don't have the exercise part down yet. Do you follow the workout schedule in the BFL book?
I would love to be able to work out in the morning but my schedule just won't allow it. I have to get up, walk and feed our dogs, get myself ready, drive my son to school then it's an hour commute to work. I am already getting up at 5 to get all that done! I'd have to get up at 4 to make a morning workout happen, and then I'd be dead by 8 at night!
SO, working on the theory that actually getting the workout in is moe important than stressing over the perfect time of day, I am stopping by the gym on the way home after work, before dinner. I wish I could do a morning workout, but it won't happen unless and until my work situation changes.
As for the workout schedule, I am trying to stick straight to it as written this week and going forward. I may have to shake up some days if I work late or have an evening commitment so I can't go to the gym after work one night (like tomorrow, for example) but the routine is really good as written and I want to stick to it as closely as possible.
I do my workouts in the morning, as that's the only time that works best for me. I wake up around 6:00am, and follow the BFL workout for that day. I do all my workouts at home. We have a treadmill that I use for the cardio and an elliptical ( but I don't like to use it so much). We do have a weight bench and lots of free weights, which I like, but I do find it hard to do my lower body without some of the leg machines.
As for the eating, it's pretty close to an hour after that I have my breakfast.
Of all the workouts, the upper body is my favorite to do, and the cardio is my absolute LEAST favorite. I have tried upping my cardio to 30 or sometimes 40 min., just to get this chub to come off. I follow the 20 min BFL cardio, then either walk with an incline or run at a slower pace with no incline for an additional 10 or 20 min. My idea behind this is to get my body into my "fat-burning zone", if there is such a thing.!?!
I really like how this program is laid out. The only thing that I do differently is add abs after each cardio, so that I'm doing them 3x a week instead of once or twice. I feel that I need to work them at least 3x/week. Otherwise, I stick pretty close to the book.
I've thought about doing that, too - abs after cardio. Although right now my cardio is the rowing machine, which tends to work my abs pretty well anyway.
Thanks for the feedback. I will follow the BFL exercise suggestions as best I can and make changes when needed. I did this program when I was 43 years old and had great success. For some reason I keep thinking it won't be as successful this time at 52 years old - just because I am older. I hope I am wrong! Congrats! It sounds like things are going well for all of you! Love the words of encouragement!
Hey everyone. What's been happening with all of you? How has your week been? Hope all is well with each of you. I had a touch of the stomack flu this week, but good to go now. Only missed one workout because of it, and chose the cardio. lol!
I hope everyone is still motivated to keep going. Here's to week 3!!
Hello? Anybody still out there?
Anybody feeling the motivation starting to slip away? I usually do my workouts in the early am, but somehow talked myself out of it this morning. So now I am looking on here for some inspiration/motivation. I won't let this day go by without my WO, but it's cardio, and I'm stalling. lol. It's 6:30pm where I am, so I still have time. But I better get to it as my husband and kids will be back from hockey practice soon, and I know if I haven't done it by then, I won't get it done!
Would love to hear how it's going from the rest of you!

Jeremy Skott Snider, Son of Katherine Kelly Lang, Appears on Porn Site
We checked it out and while that's true in some cases, other photos are very tame. One page has video content with another guy and one of Snider solo. It's free to check it out yourself but be warned. This is a porn website.
SeanCody.com is definitely not a site to visit at work! Our link is to the original Radar Online story.
So far there has been no comment from Snider (who played Baby Eric on B&B) or Lang on the story. Lang's ex-husband, Skott Snider (Jeremy's father), produced and directed a number of Playboy documentaries from 1988 to 1991. Jeremy was born in 1990.

After visiting Sean Cody, it's apparent the Jeremy Skott Snider enjoys being at the bottom of things.
Sorry, couldn't resist.

I have always been a top fan of Brooke Logan Forrester, I am excited to see that her cutie son has a bit of the infamous Logan sexuality that his mom's B&B character has! Providing KKL would be interested in the storyline herself I would love to see B&B use her sons real life be of some inspiration to a story for Brooke's son R.J. who we all know will most likely be a grown man within the next year...Since losing the only Gays on daytime with the loss of As the World Turns it would be nice to have a gay storyline on B&B, and a son of Brooke's portraying a gay porn star, I absolutely love it!!! It's time that gay love scenes get the same deep attention the hetero scenes receive! Hopefully someday soon! :-)ReplyDelete

So we took the kids to see a local legend the other day called Spooklight. It is a supposedly haunted road that has an eerie light crossing the road when summoned by the visitors. The story goes like this:
It was a cool October evening in 1894. Old man Lawry was waiting up for his daughter, his only child, to return home. Didn't she notice the storm moving in? Where was she! He ponders that he should have never let her go. He had always been over-protective, but she was all the family that he had left! His beloved wife had died not long after Rebecca had been born. But Rebecca had begged to go to the social, so he had finally given in to her. He knew it was actually a bit early for her to be home, but there was a fierce looking storm way off to the west, moving their way……..
***CRACK**** Lightning flashed across the sky. The wind was starting to blow. Still no Rebecca! Where WAS she!! He knew she was 18 years old, but she was not that good at driving a horse & rig. Oh, if he could just see her coming up the road! John Lawry was over being mad…..he was getting frantic now! He was just about to convince himself that she had seen the storm coming and stayed at the church when there was a sudden movement out the window. Yes! It was a horse and buggy! Grabbing his raincoat, he dashed out the door, as the rain starts to fall in torrents. Running out into the rain, he grabs the harness and brings the panting horse to a stop.
"GET IN THE HOUSE!" he yells to his daughter. But there is no response…….
What's this? John looks into the empty buggy. Where could she be? He looks in the obvious places with no success and then his eyes glance back down the dark, wet lane. Fear is slowly replaced by dread as John's mind starts racing wildly. Rebecca is in trouble somewhere! He leaps into the buggy and whips the tired horse back into action. Down the lane, toward the church he flies. He can see steam rising from the horses back, but not much of anything else as the rain beats against the rig. The buggy slides around the corners, sending mud flinging. At the top of the first of the three hills, a bright flash of lightning illuminates the road ahead of him. There! At the bottom of the hill!!……..
Pulling back hard on the reins, the horse was more than happy to come to a stop, even if it was quite a job on a muddy steep downhill. John recognizes the dress on the figure lying in a heap in the mud. REBECCA! She must have been hurrying to get home before the storm and fell out on the rough downhill! Even before the rig had come to a complete stop, he was running to the body. Turning her over, John's eyes fall on a most horrid sight. Her head! Where is her head?!! Apparently it had been severed by the buggy wheel……
Rebecca Lawry was buried in the family cemetery near where her body was found. Her head never turned up. It is assumed that some animal dragged it off. John Lawry never spoke much after that night. He would be seen in town occasionally, or around his house, usually muttering soft words to himself. But all night, every night after Rebecca's death, he would go out with a lantern searching the area for his daughter's head. Even after his death a number of lonely years later, and yes, even today, more that 100 years since that fateful night, the light from John Lawry's lantern can be seen searching the woods of Spook Light Hill.
So, in order to see the light, the visitors must be on the 3rd hill, flash their brights 3 times and wait. Sometimes he shows up, sometimes he doesn't. We had about 6 groups go out the other night, and only a few of them reported seeing it. I know my van saw it, and I can't explain it. It was quite the experience.

I hope the monkeys got their rest on Sunday because we are in overdrive here at Catapult. On top of that, we had a completely inappropriate usage of hands over the weekend. Connor D. and Lauren S. were caught holding hands in one of the counselor's rooms during a movie. And as we all know, holding hands can only lead to one thing. CRABS! So we taped their hands into lobster hands and whenever any counselor acknowledged them for the rest of the day they had to do their best Dr. Zoidberg impersonation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_WI0VI7aIw).
Sunday was a day of excitement for few, competition for others, and relaxation for all. Some of the monkeys went to Chicago for some sightseeing and delicious pizza. Others chose to stay a bit closer to home and went to Indianapolis for some ice skating and duck pin bowling. I am still confused as to what duck pin bowling is exactly, but it sounds awesome and everyone had a great time. If big cities didn't tickle your fancy, we took a large group of the campers to a paintballing facility where they could paint beautiful murals of (paintball) guts and glory on the opponents.
But for the few left standing, or more likely sleeping, Sunday was a way to recharge those batteries for the final week. I hope you rested up, because we got one final sprint!

Report: D-backs interested in Jhonny Peralta
It appears the Diamondbacks' ongoing quest to acquire a shortstop may take them to the Motor City.
According to Danny Knobler, who is a senior baseball writer for CBSSports.com, the team has spoken to the Detroit Tigers about Jhonny Peralta.
Diamondbacks have shown interest in Jhonny Peralta. But Tigers won't trade him unless/until they get someone better at shortstop.— DKnobler (@DKnobler) November 20, 2012
Peralta, 30, hit .239 with 13 home runs and 63 RBI last season. He scored 58 runs and stole one base.
Those numbers are not particularly great, though he hit .299 with 21 home runs and 86 RBI the season before.
The veteran is slated to make $6 million next season after the Tigers exercised an option in his contract, and is regarded as a solid-but-not-spectacular defender.

CONETOE — Conetoe residents got into the holiday spirit Saturday morning at the town's second annual Christmas parade. While the parade wasn't as big as the Macy's Thanksgiving Day fanfare in New York City, the residents of the small town of Conetoe showed their enthusiasm all the same.
"I was impressed. It was bigger than I expected. I think it's created a lot of enthusiasm," said Liz Whitfield, a Conetoe native who watched the parade with her daughter-in-law, Wendy McLawhorn, and her 2-year-old granddaughter, Madeline McLawhorn. Her 4-year-old grandson, Marshall McLawhorn, rode on the Penders Missionary Baptist Church float with other children.
"You've got a whole other generation to grow it [the parade] up," Whitfield said. "It lets people know we're on the map."
If the town gave out an award for most original float, George Hopkins would have won the prize. He waved at the children on the sides of the road from his purple float, which he made from scrap metal, parts off a golf cart, and a four-wheeler.
"I make stuff about every year for the parade. Kids like little stuff like that," Hopkins said.
Fire trucks, horses and Santa Claus were other features in the Christmas parade.
Jacalyn Davis waved at the fire department members as they passed by her on their trucks and thanked them for "keeping us safe." The Tarboro resident called the parade "short but nice."
"Even in the cold weather, I think they had a great turnout," Davis said.
"I see a lot of different faces this year. Every year gets better and better," said Conetoe Mayor Linda Ingram. She estimated between 30 and 35 units participated in this year's parade, and the only drawback was not having a marching band.
"We had more fire trucks than we anticipated," Ingram said. "We took a different route this year. We want to try to accommodate everybody the best way we can." The reason for the new route was to pass by the homes of senior citizens who would not have been able to see the parade otherwise. The parade began at Conetoe Chapel Church on Factory Street and ended at the town park on Roberson Drive, where the celebration continued with a fall festival.
Bobbie Rickman and Raye Gooch were among the residents who sat in their front yard and watched the parade.
"I think it's very needed," said Gooch of the parade. "The little town of Conetoe used to be a booming town. It needs to be built up like it used to be."
Jackay Pettaway, a Conetoe native, returned to her hometown on Saturday to watch the parade. She walked around with her cart of candy apples and stopped to speak to people along the parade route.
"It's about time Conetoe did something to show its strength," Pettaway said. "A whole lot of people do not know where Conetoe is."
Pettaway wasn't the only Conetoe native who came home for the parade and fall festival. Berna Worsley, who now lives in Charlotte, said she was "glad to be back in my hometown to see the progress they are making."
"The community is working together, for one cause now," Worsley said. "A town united."
Rev. Richard Joyner, pastor of Conetoe Chapel Church, also commented that Saturday's celebration brought the town together. He rode with Ingram in the parade.
"I think it's a great opportunity for social collaboration within the community," Joyner said. "It unites us across all boundaries."
Ingram said the purpose of the parade and fall festival is to spur growth, something that hasn't happened in Conetoe for a long time. She said the town's leadership is taking things "one thing at a time and one day at a time" to strengthen and grow the community.

IT Contracting: How to Get Started on Elance, oDesk
IT professionals are increasingly turning to online freelance marketplaces such as Elance and oDesk to start new careers as full-time IT contractors or to supplement their incomes. The CEOs of Elance and oDesk, along with IT contractors using those sites, offer 13 practical tips for getting started in the online freelance marketplace and for standing out in a sea of global competition.
Fri, December 11, 2009
CIO — Nathan Wenneker joined Elance, an online freelance marketplace, in August 2008 because he wanted to become a self-employed IT contractor. The web application developer had no interest in a traditional full-time IT job; he wanted control over when he worked, how much he worked and the kind of work he did.
Wenneker, 26, is one of more than 5,000 IT professionals who sign on with Elance every month. More than 50,000 IT contractors have joined Elance since January 2009. oDesk, another popular online freelance marketplace, is experiencing similar growth. In November 2009 alone, 14,000 technical providers signed up on oDesk, according to the company. Roughly 150,000 IT providers have signed up since the start of 2009.
[ 8 Tips for IT Professionals Interested in Pursuing Careers as Independent Consultants ]
IT professionals are flocking to Elance, oDesk and other sites such as Rent a Coder, guru.com and LimeExchange for a variety of reasons. Some have been laid off and want to pick up freelance projects while they search for a new full-time gig. Others, who may have been victims of pay cuts, need to supplement their income with contract work. Yet another group, like Wenneker, is forging new careers as independent IT contractors.
[ Layoffs Increase Demand for Tech Freelancers ]
"If you get laid off or if you want a second income, Elance and other sites like it are an attractive option," says Nick Dalton, 43, who solicits work for his iPhone app development company, 360mind Inc., on Elance, Guru.com and Rent a Coder. "It's a great way to get your name out there and get proposals without doing any of your own marketing. If you're a small company or just starting up as a freelancer, you most likely don't have a big advertising budget."
Help Wanted
There's plenty of business on these sites for IT contractors to land. About 30,000 jobs are posted on Elance and oDesk each month, those companies say. Hiring on Elance in 2009 was up 40 percent compared with 2008, according to CEO Fabio Rosati. He notes that more than 60,000 companies are hiring on Elance. oDesk boasts 85,000 buyers, according to CEO Gary Swart, and the number of hires on oDesk has grown by more than 70,000 during the last year.
"We're seeing massive growth on both the buyer and provider sides as more and more companies look for ways to get more done for less," Swart points out, "and as providers, tech workers, look to make more money."
The drawback to all the growth in service providers is that it's hard for new IT contractors to stand out in the sea of global competitors on these sites. Building a successful Elance or oDesk business requires hard work, patience and a distinct value proposition for prospective buyers.
In this get-started guide to IT contracting through Elance and oDesk, the CEOs of those two companies, along with experienced IT contractors using those sites, share 13 best practices for creating a user profile that will get you business.

When you're first trying to eliminate gluten foods from your diet, it can seem overwhelming. There are so many processed foods with ingredients that are difficult to decipher that it can be hard to even know which foods contain gluten. In this article we'll give you some tips on how to avoid gluten foods so you can be free of symptoms and have a happier, healthier life.
Get Organized
The first step is to create a list of gluten foods so you know what to watch out for.This gluten foods list will serve as a reference for you and you should add to it as you discover more foods or ingredients that contain gluten. In addition to your gluten foods list, yo should create a non gluten foods list that can function as your shopping list. As you find gluten free products that you enjoy, add to your list. Over time this list will become your primary shopping guide.
Plan Ahead
If you want to make sure that you know which gluten foods to avoid in tough situations like restaurants and social events, do your homework ahead of time. Think about what you'll order from a restaurant while staying gluten free. If you're invited to dinner be sure to let the host or hostess know about your dietary requirements (why not share your non gluten food list with them?) and ask if you can bring a gluten free dish. Most people run into trouble following a gluten free lifestyle when they don't plan ahead and find themselves in a situation where there are no gluten free options.
Keep a Positive Attitude
Changing your eating habits can be difficult. It takes perseverance and dedication over a long period of time before eating strictly gluten free will feel natural. The key is to keep a positive attitude. Remember that most food is naturally gluten free. There are only a few gluten containing grains – and now there are substitutes for most products that would normally not be allowed. Any time you feel discouraged, think about how you feel when you eat gluten and how much better your health is when you don't. Also think about all the amazing gluten free options available in the supermarkets today. From gluten free cakes and cookies to breads and pancakes there really isn't anything that can't be made as a non gluten food. You can even make your own bread with a gluten free bread machine.
The key to avoiding gluten foods is to stay organized, keep a positive outlook and do a bit of planning before you're in a situation you're not certain of. The health benefits are well worth the investment of time and effort.
