A baby suffered severe burns during a house fire near Rubidoux High School in Jurupa Valley, Riverside County Fire Department officials said.
The blaze was reported at 3:33 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 28, along the 4300 block of Opal Street, near the high school's parking lot.
The baby boy's injuries included second- to third-degree burns over about 50 percent of his body, according to preliminary reports. A Fire Department news release stated he was taken by ambulance to a burn trauma facility.
Neighbor Diedre Hernandez, 23, heard popping sounds from around the corner where she lives on Tola Court.
She and sisters Shana Holst and Rhianna Hernandez went outside and saw the house on Opal on fire.
"We could hear people screaming," Hernandez said, so they ran over.
Hernandez said she saw a person who she identified as the boy's grandmother using a hose to put out the fire on the boy, who was lying on the front porch.
Hernandez said she delicately picked up the child as a sister called 911. The dispatcher said to wrap the boy in wet towels, so the sisters went to a house on Tola, where someone gave them wet towels.
The boy had burns on his legs, feet, arms and head, Hernandez said.
The crews of four fire engines and a ladder truck knocked down the flames at 4:02 p.m. One firefighter suffered a minor electrical shock from a downed power line, said Battalion Chief Bryan Deyo.
Three buildings on the property were badly damaged.
A detached garage and adjoining room were gutted. The kitchen and part of a bedroom in the back of the 800-square-foot house were heavily damaged by flames that climbed into the attic. A storage shed and parked van were destroyed.

Look at the calendar! Just a few days left to milk my Oktoberfest theme! If there were one month to be stuck in for all kinds of reasons, let it be October. Here is the spread from this past Sunday. It is called Obatzda, which sounded more Polish to my husband, but from what I can gather is Bavarian in origin. It is a bier hall staple served with bread, crackers, or pretzels. This delicious spread (dip? condiment?) pairs nicely with radishes, pickles, pickled onions, or really anything one might want to accompany deeply flavored cheese yumminess along with a good dark German beer.
Although born of bier hall revelry with all of its 44 oz. stein swaying imagery, Obatzda is at home in the home as well. Take Halloween night, for example. Who has time to sit down to a nice meal when the doorbell is ringing every two minutes?! Solution-- set out a bowl with some bread (pretzel bread is a good choice) and veggies and the whole crew can get some wholesome sustenance in between fun-size Whatchamacallits. Hmmm. Those sound good too.
makes about 3 cups
1 medium bulb of garlic
Olive oil
Kosher salt
1 pound camembert cheese, rind removed and cut into pieces; at room temperature
6 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup (2 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup dark German beer (I used Beck's Dark)
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup sweet onion, finely diced; rinsed under cold water and dried on paper towels
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 Tablespoon chopped chives
Radishes, sliced
Rye Crackers
Preheat the oven to 400º F. Using a sharp knife, cut the garlic bulb in half. Keeping the halves together, place the bulb on a sheet of aluminum foil; drizzle with olive oil and season with kosher salt. Wrap the foil around the bulb and place on a baking sheet. Bake until the garlic cloves have softened and caramelized, about 30-35 minutes. Once the bulb is cool enough to handle, squeeze the top and bottom of the cut bulb to extract the roasted cloves; set aside.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the camembert, cream cheese, butter, and beer; process until smooth. Add the reserved garlic, caraway, and paprika; process to combine. Add the rinsed and dried chopped onion and pulse 2 to 3 one second pulses just to incorporate. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Transfer the cheese mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours for the flavors to blend. Bring to room temperature before serving. Sprinkle with chopped chives and more freshly ground black pepper. Serve with sliced radishes, pickled gherkins, rye crackers, and pretzel buns. Enjoy!

I am still one hole behind you!
A guy was playing golf one day and he got lost. He saw a lady up ahead of him and went to her and said
"Can you please help me, I don't know what hole I'm on."
She told him "You are one hole behind me. I'm on 7; you're on 6." He thanked her and continued playing golf. On the back nine he got lost again.
He saw the same lady and went to her again kind of embarrassed.
"I'm sorry to bother you again but I'm lost again, can you please tell me what hole I'm on."
She told him "You are one hole behind me. I'm on 14; you are on 13." Again he thanked her and continued playing golf.
When he finished he saw her in the clubhouse. He went up to her and asked if he could buy her a drink for helping him out. She accepted. As they
were drinking and talking he asked her what she did for a living.
"I'm in sales."
He replied "no kidding so am I. What do you sell?"
She said it's too embarrassing to tell. But after he kept pleading to know what she sold she said she'd tell him if he promised not to laugh. He promised.
She said, "I sell tampons".
He immediately fell to the floor laughing hysterically.
She said, "You promised you wouldn't laugh".
He replied "I'm sorry, but I couldn't help it. I am a rep for toilet paper. I'm still one hole behind you."FHM3006

9620 Airport Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA | Directions 9004533.94862 -118.38595
Open Holidays
SUPERB CUSTOMER SERVICE – I generally don't like staying too near the airport, but I now make it a point to stay at the Renaissance Montura when I am in Los Angeles (usually a couple of times a month). The staff is exceptionally courteous and helpful and will go out of their way to accomodate their guests, whether you request early check-in, message service, extra towels..you name it, if they can, they will do it.
The bar is a wondeful, relaxing place, also with great staff. It doesn't have the hotel bar atmosphere one expects. The restaurant is also exceptional, though a bit on the pricey side. Room service is also a bit steep, but service is excellent and much quicker than in many hotels.
There is not a bad room in the place. Even the deluxe rooms are well-appointed and the beds are some of the most comfortable I have ever encountered. The only issue I had was that the high-speed internet in the rooms isn't really as high-speed as I would like, but the internet connections in the Business Center in the lobby are lightening-fast (and at 49 cents per minute, should be). Parking is also a bit steep, as on my last stay, Valet was $23.00 a day (with in and out privileges), but well worth it, as they are fast and efficient.
Though close to the airport, you do not really notice the noise, which is actually unusual for a hotel so close.
Though not within walking distance, there are numerous great places to dine within a short driving distance. The only thing within walking distance is Burger King.
Overall, I highly recommend the Renaissance Montura. The staff alone makes you want to come back.
Better inside than outside; Nice place – I've sayed here for 9 weeks straight for work now. If you're working near LAX, it's great. The rooms are pretty nice (don't expect a nice view), I'd say better than average but nothing too special. The place looks average at best from the outside, but the restaurant downstairs is nice and the service is good.
The parking passes they use are weird - you have to keep one in your car, and give it to an attendant every time you leave, along with another pass you get each time you enter.
The club level offers a nice continental 'plus' breakfast and food throughout the day. You have access to it if you are a 'preferred' Marriott member.
If you're looking for a hotel for a vacation, this might not be it - unless you're visiting people in Marina Del Rey or near the airport. It's more for business.
One of the nicest business hotels at LAX. – The Scene
Surrounded by scores of business and airport hotels, this property defies the generic offerings typical of its unimaginative neighborhood with an exterior reminiscent of an updated, albeit rather corporate-looking, French manor. The interior, too, defies stereotype, being much more lavish than you would expect in an airport hotel. This is one of LAX's nicest accommodations. It's no wonder that flight attendants revere it.
The Details
Guest rooms feature spacious layouts and comfortable, business-friendly interiors that have some interesting views of approaching jumbo jets. There is a business center with wireless kiosks. The lobby, which mixes French and contemporary California styles, is bustling almost 24-hours a day, so no matter what clock you're on, chances are you won't feel lonesome in the cocktail lounge.
what a great stay – my wife and i came to la to visit some family and vacation a little. when we arrived we cought the free hotel shuttle and got right to our rooms. The hotel was beautiful and the service was impecable. the hotel was also quite convient to all the areas we had to travel to (mainly south bay). the food at the hotel was also very good...a step above your normal hotel food. they also offer a wireless internet service through the whole hotel (from the lobby all the way to the top floor) which let me keep in touch with my business back home...it was a great stay and we will definately be back.

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett says the NCAA "piled on" with its sanctions against Penn State in the aftermath of the Jerry Sandusky child sex scandal.
Corbett spoke Wednesday morning in State College to announce a federal anti-trust lawsuit the state is filing against the NCAA.
The governor called the NCAA's actions against the school, including a $60 million fine, "overreaching and unlawful."
However, the NCAA issued a statement of its own Wednesday, saying the lawsuit appears to be without merit and "an affront to all of the victims in this tragedy."
The punishments were related to the university's handling of the child sex scandal involving former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky.
A jury convicted Sandusky last year on 45 counts of child sex abuse. And a judge sentenced him to at least 30 years in prison.
"Since November of 2011, Penn State University has been in the eye of a media storm," Corbett said. "It has been subject to disparagement for the unforgivable criminal actions of a child predator. Sandusky has been prosecuted and convicted for these heinous crimes and will spend the rest of his life in prison, where he belongs."
Corbett said administrators who allegedly covered up the case face criminal charges, and the victims' claims are being addressed by the university and courts.
"And in the wake of this terrible scandal, Penn State was left to heal and to clean up this tragedy that was created by the few," he asserted.
Corbett said the rebuilding continues but, "At the same time, while the healing was taking place, I believe, the NCAA took actions and piled on, choosing to levy – in their words – 'unprecedented sanctions against Penn State and its football program.'"
The NCAA fined Penn State $60 million. The money is to be used nationally to finance grants for child abuse programs, a plan that Pennsylvania lawmakers oppose. They want the money used within the state.
The sanctions also included a four-year ban on bowl games, a drastic reduction in scholarships, and past wins were wiped off the record books.
"These sanctions did not punish Sandusky, nor did they punish the others who have been criminally charged," Corbett said. "Rather, they punished the past, the present and the future students, current and former student athletes, local businesses and the citizens of Pennsylvania."
The governor said he's heard from many about the "unfairness" of the sanctions and the manner in which they were imposed.
The lawsuit claims anti-trust violations. Corbett says the matter was already being handled by the courts, and that the collegiate athletic association overstepped its bounds.
"The only logical conclusion is that the NCAA did it because they benefited from the penalties, and because the leadership of the NCAA believed that it could," Corbett said.
A group of local business owners, student leaders, alumni and others stood behind the governor as he delivered his remarks.
The lawsuit marks a shift from Corbett's initial response to the sanctions last July. At that time he expressed concern that Penn State would use any taxpayer money to pay its fines.
Former football coach Joe Paterno's family issued a statement just before Corbett spoke.
Paterno's family said that the matter is "far from closed," and they called it encouraging that "Governor Corbett now realizes, as do many others, that there was an inexcusable rush to judgment."
JoePa's family says they will, in the near future, release the results of their own inquiry undertaken after the report done by former FBI director Louis Freeh and the NCAA's sanctions.
In a written response Wednesday afternoon, the NCAA said it was "disappointed by the Governor's action today."
Beyond considering the lawsuit without merit, NCAA Executive Vice President and General Counsel said it's an affront to victims whose lives "were destroyed by the criminal actions of Jerry Sandusky."
"While the innocence that was stolen can never be restored, Penn State has accepted the consequences for its role and the role of its employees and is moving forward," Remy said. "Today's announcement by the Governor is a setback to the University's efforts."
Flames are tearing through a South Jersey forest right now, and this wildfire is only expected to grow.

A survey of type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients in the United States, United Kingdom, France, and Germany indicates that more than one in every five have arrived late at work or not shown up at all because of a hypoglycemic episode the night before.
The survey, sponsored by Denmark-based drug maker Novo Nordisk, asked 1,404 people aged 18 and older if hypoglycemic incidents affect their productivity at work. About 22.7 percent said that episodes the night before had forced them to arrive late at work or miss an entire day. An almost equal percentage-18.3 percent--said that at-work hypoglycemic episodes have forced them to leave work early.
In a hypoglycemic episode, blood sugar plummets to dangerously low levels, bringing on trembling, sweating, confusion, and rapid pulse. If left untreated, the patient can slip into a coma. Treatment calls for a rapid infusion of glucose to bring blood sugar levels back up. Such incidents can be exhausting, causing patients to require observation and rest that can cut into their normal work day.
The study can be found at Valueinhealthjournal.com.

SAN ANTONIO -- Rudolph Coleman has come to terms with the other man in his marriage. His wife, Vivian, is obsessed with President Barack Obama.
"Yes, very much so," he said.
Vivian became fixated on Senator Obama when he ran for his first term as president of the United States. As an Obama volunteer and devout follower, she got three chance encounters to meet him in San Antonio.
"When I met him it just changed everything," Vivian said.
In fact, she recalls him being just like family the first time they met. That's why a handshake just wasn't enough.
"I told him I have to have a hug," she said.
The Coleman's followed Obama's victory all the way to the nation's capital. In January 2009, they signed up for a chartered bus going to see the inauguration of America's first African-American president.
Vivian had always watched the presidential pageantry.
"It's something I've watched for years whether (the president) was a Democrat or a Republican," Vivian said. "It's just something I like to watch."
This time she wanted a front seat to history. It took the bus two days to get them to their hotel. The excitement of the swearing-in had the Coleman's up bright and early on January 20, 2009. Security was a beast but the San Antonio couple were determined to get to a good view of this event. More than one million other people had the same idea.
They, finally, got in place by the inaugural parade. The two watched the presidential motorcade move in an almost surreal manner. Rudolph said his heart was pounding as the doors to the president's limousine opened.
"By me being taller, I was able to look further down," Rudolph said. "And, I was surprised. 'Oh, my God, Vivian! They're getting out the car and walking down the street in the parade!'"
It was a moment they had not expected. Waves from the president and First Lady Michelle Obama towards their direction became almost too much to process. That image still brings tears to Vivian's eyes.
"I cried for about two hours," she said. "I couldn't believe what I had seen."
Rudolph said the thought of an African-American president was just not something they expected to ever see. Vivian's elderly mother who died after the 2009 inauguration never wanted Obama to run. She feared someone would try to hurt the president.
"I told her we can't be like that," she tearfully recalled.
As they traveled back to San Antonio from presidential festivities, the Colemans realized the Obama euphoria caused a memory lapse for both of them. They had completely forgotten their wedding anniversary.
"We didn't even think about the anniversary until we got back home," he said. "The whole time we were traveling. The whole time we were there. We didn't think about the anniversary part."
Four years later, the Colemans are back in Washington D.C. for another inauguration. The two will hit the streets again shoulder-to-shoulder with complete strangers assembled to watch history. It also gives Vivian an opportunity to see the other man in her life.
"This is the icing on the cake for me," she said. "This is his legacy---that he was able to win a second term."
They will celebrate their 41st wedding anniversary after Obama's big day, compliments of their children.

John Bacon and Donna Leinwand Leger, USA TODAY
Four buildings at Harvard University were evacuated and morning final exams were canceled Monday after the school said it had "unconfirmed" reports of explosives.
The alert was issued shortly after 9 a.m. Harvard University Police Department spokesman Steven Catalano, in a phone interview, told The Harvard Crimson shortly before 11 a.m. that no explosives had been found so far, the school newspaper tweeted.
Harvard issued the alert on its website, on Twitter and emails citing "unconfirmed reports of explosives at four sites on campus: Science Center, Thayer, Sever, and Emerson. Please evacuate those buildings now."
The school tweeted that there had been no explosions. Faculty, staff and students were being updated through "Web, email and voicemail," the website said. Access to Harvard Yard, the historic center of campus, was being limited to residents with Harvard ID cards, the website said.
"Out of an abundance of caution, the buildings have been evacuated while the report is investigated," the website statement said. "Harvard's focus is on the safety of our students, faculty and staff. We will update the media when we have more information."
The university said school and Cambridge, Mass., police were investigating. The Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority Police said they sent K9 and special operations units to the scene. State troopers from the K9 and bomb squads also responded, Massachusetts State Police said. Boston police also were involved.
Jay Harris, dean of undergraduate education, told students gathered at Harvard's Annenberg Hall, the freshman dining facility, that Monday morning final exams had been canceled due to the scare, the Crimson reported.
"Following announcement, students erupt in applause," the Crimson tweeted.
The main campus of the school, among the nation's most prestigious, sits on 210 acres in Cambridge. Harvard's student body includes about 6,700 undergraduates and another 14,500 graduate and professional students. Final exams have been taking place for several days, and scores of finals were scheduled Monday.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Novak Djokovic absorbed plenty of pressure from Radek Stepanek before advancing to the fourth round of the Australian Open, then unleashed some stinging shots at Lance Armstrong after the doping-tainted cyclist's long-expected confession.
Djokovic broke the 34-year-old, 34th-ranked Stepanek late in each set of a 6 -4, 6-3, 7-5 win Friday, extending his winning streak to 17 matches at the Australian Open.

Sign him.
Of "COURSE" re-sign him. Wow. If we don't come to an agreement he's getting tagged. Long ain't going nowhere. Of course re-sign Smith and Hartline too. We got space next year.
As long as Ireland is here, Jake won't be going anywhere.
if we can get an average guy in his place and some offensive or secondary talent with that extra cap im ok with letting him go BUT that is the only way
Miami Dolphins 4 Life
give him a good contract but not joe thomas type. thats just too much
i have a real real real big feeling that hes going to want some big big money!
"Fiedler did not have the arm strength of Tannehill, but overall he was a much better QB."
Attack the Person, Not the Ideas:
Attack the person in some way. For example:
- Attack their expertise, questioning their qualifications or experience
- Comment on their inability to make a good argument
- Attach them to discredited others
You are not qualified to make such a statement.
You would say that, wouldn't you.
And who do you think is going to believe you.
Attacking the Person is a form of distraction, forcing them into defense and away from their argument.

Your 15VAN nozzles will put out about 3.5 gpm each if set to full circle, and even assuming the average set at 1/2 circle, that is 1.5+ gpm EACH, or about 24 GPM total. Is your pump rated at 24GPM ( ~1500 gallon per hour) at 25 PSI?
Dear all,
I'm using a 1HP Lowara pump with a ball,lifting water from 7m deep well, for my irrigation network...
it's divided to 2 separate lines with valves, each line has 16 "Rain Bird 15van" sprinkle...
puting into concideration that I operate one valve each time, the pressure isn't enough to raise the sprinkles to operate properly!!!
someone told me to add another ball... will that increase pressure effectively??? another one told me to replace it with 1.5HP or even 2HP pump...
plz. advice the cheapest way...
Your 15VAN nozzles will put out about 3.5 gpm each if set to full circle, and even assuming the average set at 1/2 circle, that is 1.5+ gpm EACH, or about 24 GPM total. Is your pump rated at 24GPM ( ~1500 gallon per hour) at 25 PSI?
It isn't clear what a "1HP Lowara pump with a ball" is and I have no idea what the pressure/flow characteristic is. Can you test the flow and pressure capacity of the pump by measuring the flow when the pressure is about 25 psi? I don't know what metric scale you use, but that is about 18 meters water column.
Without knowing the specific mode of your 1HP Lowara pump I suspect it is a lawn sprinkler pump pumping from 7 meters (23 ft). This pump is not capable of building enough pressure for your sprinkle heads at that depth. More HP won't help. You may need a multi stage pump or Jet Pump to get the pressure you need.
many ppl told me that 1.5 HP of the same pump will be ok, u can check it in this site: http://www.lowara.com/lowdata/doc/EN/bg-ed-en.pdf , puting into concideration that my existing pump is PGM 7 , and the recommended pump from others is PGM 11, would u think it will be ok or what...
Based on the curves at the link you gave us, both of the pumps you mention are limited to about 32 liters per minute (about 7 US gallons per minute) at 7 meters lift. Those little tails on the chart labeled 8m, 7m, 6m, et cetera represent the limiting lift values corresponding to the flows, beyond which there is not enough Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) to prevent cavitation in the pump. In other words, the pump can never pump more flow than the chart values for those values of lift.
You must limit the number of sprinkler heads so that they don't exceed the rated flow rate of the pump at the pressure for which the heads will operate.
The BG7 pump will deliver about 40 psi at that flow and the BG11 pump will deliver about 50 psi. That is enough pressure to operate most sprinkler heads.
But if the total demand of all of the sprinkler heads exceeds about 32 liters per minute, then none of them will work properly.
Because of the FLOW RATE LIMITATION OF THE PUMP, neither of the pumps will work for the number of heads that you have. More horsepower will not solve the problem for that model of pump.
When selecting a pump it is important to get one with a SUBSTANTIAL MARGIN OF SAFETY for the NPSH requirement, because any little problem can cause it to fail. For example, warmer water will decrease the suction lift capability of the pump.
thanks Bob NH....
but i've been thinking of another solution, maybe work or not...
puting into consideration that i use the same pumb for home use...
can i get another pumb let's say 1HP without pressure tank, to work as a pooster to the main pumb ?? and to operate as pass by the main pumb, wich i only operates both with sprinklers and i operate the main one only with home use ?? what do u think ????
The "Main pump", the one that you described in the beginning, can't lift more water from the well at the flow capacity beyond 32 liters per minute. Putting another pump after it is not likely to help that.
How much pressure will the existing pump deliver if the sprinklers are not turned on? Are you pumping to a pressure tank, or just into a pipe system?
The link you gave us it to a page that describes a BG Series pump, which is described as a centrifugal pump. It shows a BGM7 and BGM11 pump where they differ only in that the BG7 pump uses a three-phase motor and the BGM7 pump uses a single-phase motor.
Your description says you have a PGM7 pump. Note the difference; PGM7 or BGM7. Is it just a typo or should I be looking for a different kind of pump? I have found another link that suggests it is a Jet pump; because the description says it has a built-in ejector. http://www.lowara.com/products/produ...2665?dt=bg#dxf

As far as I am concerned water pressure for your sprinkler is low just because of elevation difference. So you just need to adjust the place of sprinkler.
You must chose between the right pump or the correct flow rate of the sprinkler heads. If the pump is used for your house then getting a mega pump might be to much for the house but adequite for the sprinklers.
Just add more zoning or better yet use lower flow rate nozzles on your sprinkler head. You can get the same throw distance with less volume to equal what others said is the maximum. You will just need to water longer to make up the the decreased flow rate.
Another option is to cut your zone size down. That many heads is kind of at the limit for normal flow. Since you have subnormal flow either changing heads or increasing the number of zones might be cheaper than buying a new pump. That also depends on how many zones you currently have and what your controller can handle. This is why pressure should be checked and verified before laying out your zones.

Total prep time: about 25 minutes
Total cook time: 15 minutes
If you love a good baked pasta dish, then you need to try this recipe. I found it in one of my Food and Wine Quick from Scratch Cookbooks. It takes a few minutes to make a simple tomato sauce with ground beef which you can do while your pasta is cooking. Then you add the pesto – which by the way is a match made in heaven with tomato sauce. If you are unfamiliar with pesto, I strongly recommend you give it a try. You can make it from scratch but it is just as tasty and much less trouble to buy it at the store. You can find it next to the pasta sauces at any grocery store. It's basically basil, garlic, olive oil and pine nuts all blended to make a beautiful green sauce. So you combine the simple homemade meat sauce with the pesto and layer it with Mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. It takes about 15 minutes to bake and you have a wonderful dinner - made from scratch. It is delicious by itself or together with a nice piece of crunchy garlic bread and tossed salad. It makes a 13 x 9 inch baking dish and we always have leftovers to pack for the next day's lunch.
Here is what you will need:
1 tablespoon of oil (I use olive)
1 small onion, chopped
1 pound of ground beef
1 28 ounce can of chopped tomatoes, drained
1 ½ teaspoons of salt
½ cup of store bought pesto
¾ pound of medium sized pasta shells
2 cups of shredded mozzarella
½ cup shredded Parmesan
The Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400. Spray a 13 x 9 inch pan with cooking spray. Put the water on to boil for the shells, I like to salt my water it flavors the pasta nicely (about 2-3 teaspoons should do it). After it starts boiling, add the shells and cook for 10 minutes.
While you are waiting for the water to boil, heat the oil over medium low heat in a large frying pan. Add the onion and cook it until it's translucent and soft, about 3-4 minutes. Add the ground beef into the pan and stir it often, making sure you don't have any big chunks of beef. Cook it until it is all nice and brown, about 10 minutes.
Add the tomatoes (make sure you drain the extra juice off so your pasta won't be swimming) and the salt and bring it to a simmer (where you see a few bubbles in the sauce but NOT a boil). Take it off the heat and add in the pesto. Combine the shells and sauce together (I usually just drain the shells, and then combine it all in the large pot that I used to boil the shells – less to clean later).
Put half of the pasta mixture into your large baking dish and put half of the mozzarella and half of the Parmesan on top. Then pour the rest of the pasta mixture on top of that and top it all off with the remaining Mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake it for about 12-15 minutes or until it is golden brown and bubbling. If your cheese browns too quickly and it hasn't started bubbling yet, you can cover it loosely with a sheet of aluminum foil. It will continue cooking but it won't get too brown.

ASHBURN, Va. — A year away from football has brought Roy Helu a new appreciation for the game, even during brutal midweek practices.
That dedication has won him the respect of his Washington Redskins teammates, who were quick to praise Helu after his three-touchdown performance Sunday.
Helu, the former Husker, relieved starter Alfred Morris at the end of Washington's long no-huddle drives, which were also the most successful drives of the day in a 45-41 win over the Chicago Bears.
"I'm so happy that he got those touchdowns," Morris said. "He deserves them. Roy really works. When he gets in there, he goes all out."
Helu was the team's star back in 2011, but was sidelined in 2012 with toe and foot injuries, opening the door for Morris to take the starting spot.
Any talk of a budding controversy was quickly nipped Sunday by all parties. Helu said after being away from football, he's happy just to be a part of a team again. Fullback Darrel Young said that attitude shows on a daily basis at Redskins Park.
"It's been pretty sweet to see that two years ago, he was the star running back, and now he has a different role, but he can still accept that and be at the top of his game," Young said. "I respect that so much. I love Roy. I love him to death. I'd block for him any day of the week."
Helu was put into the game at opportune times Sunday.
When the Redskins went to their no-huddle look, Morris took the bulk of the handoffs. But after several plays, coach Mike Shanahan opted to go for the fresh legs of Helu against a winded defense.
"We're tired and they're tired, and what happens sometimes is you're going to give your running back a break because he's carrying the ball quite a bit in those scenarios," Shanahan said. "The defense is getting tired, and you've got a fresh running back."
Helu said before the game the coaches go over his anticipated responsibilities, but it can be subject to change based on how the game plays out.
He's been the third-down back in most games this season, because of his proficiency in pass blocking.
Even with four touchdowns this season, though, he said he's not pushing for a bigger role.
Asked how he's different from Morris, he joked that he has "a lighter complexion."
Quarterback Robert Griffin III said both players were essential to the team's production Sunday.
"Alfred is the battering ram, who can also take the top off of it and go for the long runs, like he did the week before," Griffin said.
"Helu is more of the speed guy, but he's got a little Alfred in him as well. So we've got two great backs in there that can run the ball as long as we give them the lanes."
Griffin's running contributed to the success of the ground game.
He finished with 84 yards. Morris logged 95 and Helu picked up 41.
Helu said just as important was that he didn't feel any lingering effects from surgery on his left foot.
He said the surgery and time away from football left him more appreciative of the game.
"Just the opportunity to play," he said. "There are going to be some days during the year where you may not feel the best going out to practice, but there's always just the truth that looking back on last year, I didn't have the opportunity to practice, so I'm trying to take advantage of those little things I couldn't do."
A three-touchdown game is no little thing, but it was appreciated by Helu and his teammates Sunday.

Green Beans: The Salty, Crunchy Side
Everything tastes better with bacon, and canned green beans are no exception. They'll taste even better if you start with French-cut (which are simply sliced diagonally); they have a more delicate texture and taste than beans that aren't cut. Sauté two or three slices of bacon, chopped; two cloves of garlic, minced; and a pinch of dried basil in olive oil. When the bacon is crispy, add the beans along with half of the liquid from the can, and cook until warmed through. Top with grated Parmesan.

Corn: The Hot and Cheesy Spoon Bread
A kind of corn pudding, spoon bread is a perfect accompaniment to fried chicken or Creole shrimp. It's easy to make (here's a recipe that uses Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix) and takes on even more flavor when you doctor it up with chopped jalapeños or a few shakes of Sriracha.
Peas: A Sweet and Filling Salad
Little Le Sueur peas, named after the Minnesota town where you'll find the Green Giant Company, aren't as vibrant-looking as larger peas, but they taste sweeter. A make-it-the-night-before salad is a good way to let their candy-like flavor shine. Drain a can and mix it with 2/3 cup Cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes; a chopped hard-boiled egg; a small onion, minced; and a few spoonfuls of mayonnaise. Add salt and pepper and refrigerate overnight.
Beets: The Healthy Yet Rich-Tasting Lunch
While some people are put off by this antioxidant-rich vegetable's unusual slipperiness, others love the earthy taste and soft-firm texture. Beets taste best with contrasting ingredients; try making a quick salad with the diced version (rinsed and drained), chopped English cucumber, thinly sliced red onion and blue cheese dressing.
Hearts of Palm: The Asparagus Alternative
These salad bar mainstays, which we've never seen sold fresh, are crisp and crunchy, and taste great with nothing more than a few drops of balsamic or apple cider vinegar. You can also make a salad with chopped hearts of palm, chunks of avocado, tomato and cucumber. Sliced green onions and a rice wine vinegar--olive oil dressing add a sharp counterpoint.
Potatoes: Home Fries in a Pinch
Those of the canned variety (which are usually new potatoes) are best when you get them a little crispy. Rinse them and then lay on top of paper towels to dry, patting with more towels. Season with whatever spices you like (smoked Spanish paprika is especially good) and then fry in oil with sliced onion and diced red or green pepper.

last night i drank an entire bottle of wine. i had eaten clean all day, went to the dentist and was bored so i drank. and then proceeded to eat a bag of cheese curls. and then picked a fight with my boyfriend (via phone) because I had had lots of wine.
I do this every so often with him and he is so great to me. like amazing. i think i am just scared because i have had a bad past relationship.
so i am beginning to see what crossing the abyss entails...because I am still doing bad habits and i know i am not supposed to dwell on slip ups, but i feel like what i do is more than that - it's intentionally sabotaging myself by overeating and intentionally picking fights with my boyfriend...
i am at the end of week 7 and plan on finishing this challenge, but there are still some things i wish i could change...
so i feel like crap today!....and yet i keep doing this. ugh. thanks for reading.
Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can.
Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can.
Therese-ISOLATE!! The best weeks of the challenge where you will see changes are about to come! So don't throw your hard work out the window over a bottle of wine and cheese curls! You CHOSE to do that, now you have to CHOOSE what you are going to do about it...Document how you feel today, post it on your fridge...do whatever, but keep moving forward in your challenge, eventually your head will figure it out!!
DebMO :0) Blessed to be a Blessing...
thanks, Debbie. you are right. :D
Yep, Don't give up Therese_anne! Yesterday was yesterday....learn from it and determine in yourself that you will NOT do it again at least for the 5 weeks remaining. Don't even buy another bottle of wine, then it's not in your house waiting for you to drink. Deb is right, it's YOUR choice. But don't let your 7 weeks of hard work and sweat go down the drain. Today's a NEW day so get up and FIGHT to the finish! You can get back on track today and go all the way to the end and if you do, I think you'll be amazed at the results you'll see. You're almost at the point in the program where things REALLY start to happen!! Lost of people cheering for you here. CAN YOU HEAR IT????!!!!
thanks mikek470!
yea, i never buy my own wine...it was my parents' and i asked to drink it...which i shouldn't have because they never say no to me...not an excuse though, i wanted to drink it! and i did! yesterday, so it's done now.
you know, i think the dehydration from drinking the wine is making my stomach maybe a flatter than yesterday! <-- looking on the bright side...
but from now on, head up! working towards the end......everything in moderation!
i can hear them. thank :)
I'm the same way with wine, if there is a bottle I will finish it by myself. My advise is to not drink anymore alcohol until you are done with your challenge. You have come so far and you are going to finish strong. Don't beat yourself up over this, you are only human.
You can do this!!! You can't change your past but you can learn from it and change your future!!!!!
hey Rachel!
thank you. i think not drinking is a good plan. i need something else to do when i get bored.
Try going on walks. You can just go on a stoll around the block. It will make you feel better and it will make you feel healthier. Drink tea instead or get some sparkling water pour it in a wine glass and add a strawberry or a rasberry.
Good luck!!!
yea walks would be a good idea....did you drink at that wedding you went to btw?
I did drink at the wedding! I planed on having 2 glasses of wine and ended up having 3 plus a beer! I felt like total doggy do do the next morning! I try and stay away from alcohol all together just for that reason. It makes me feel like crap.
Nothing feels better than being healthy, feeling proud, and sticking with the goals that have been made.
So, exactly HOW BAD is one drink? I know, it's all carbs, and nothing of value. But I enjoy a having a beer or a glass of wine a couple of times a week. Is that a total killer for BFL? How does it affect the program? Slow progress? More cravings?
and if I DO give in and have a light beer or a glass of wine, can I "reverse" it with cardio or something?
I understand the idea is to avoid it all together, but after a sail, it's so good to enjoy one with the crew. Soft drinks are out too, so I can just drink water, and I do most of the time now, but can you tell me what the "price" is? (My sailing race days don't always coincide with a free day....)
<whine, whine, whine!> ;-)
Exercising, eating right are hard. Being fat, out-of-shape and unhealthy is hard.
Pick your HARD!
Hi there! Therese_anne!
Shake it off and keep on going! You can do what ever you decide to do. :0)
I have found that writing down the meals and work outs the day before some how helps me avoid situations where I might not fare so well. Best wishes to you! I am beginning week 6 too.
thanks for the encouragement, everyone! i essentially took a free day all weekend with the holiday and all too :(
i had lots of bbq's to go to and i just didn't do what i am supposed to and i missed two workouts...my gym had very limited hours yesterday and i just didnt make it to do UBWO - no excuses.
also, i found out on friday that my gym moved. they didnt tell anyone, they just moved 4 miles down the road and changed their hours so they are open even less.
it's disappointing that they did that to the members...they sent us all a letter on friday telling us they were going to do that, but i wonder what happened to the people that showed up at the gym at 5am?? also, the gym was closed all weekend but we were allowed to use some gym like 10 miles away for the weekend.
it's a huge letdown for me, because i could walk to the gym, it was an all women's gym and i knew my way around it and knew the equipment well....and i want to cancel my membership just because they moved without warning us about it. so i am kinda bummed and not sure where i am going to work out today...and my free days really make me think my results are not going to be very good. :( ugh!
In reality, a free weekend isn't going to undo 7 weeks of hard work. As others have said, the choice is yours to either continue with the challenge, which you've come so far on - or to let a bad day or two ruin your entire transformation.
That you've made it 7 weeks is all the proof you need to know you can see this through. The news about your gym sucks - but I'm willing to bet that it's not the first curveball thrown at you this challenge - and it shouldn't be your last.
You got this.
There is no fate but what we make for ourselves.
hey ClintL
thanks. I plan on finishing the challenge. and definitely plan on doing another one. this is the first time in a long time i have been committed to anything and it feels pretty good!!
I'll figure out something with the gym.....

So, maybe you got a new Keurig® brewer over the holidays. Or maybe you've had a brewer for years. Either way, there's a lot more than just a simple cup of coffee that you can get out of this terrific little machine. Here's some inspiration from GreenMountainCoffee.com and Keurig.com to help you think outside the bean.
Explore new varieties of coffee. Sure you have your go-to blend, and no one's going to take that away from you. But did you know, there are over 150 different K-Cup® and about 50 Vue® pack varieties of coffee out there? From light, medium, and dark roast to extra bold, flavored, or special reserve – you might just discover a new favorite or two.
Try other hot brews. Coffee's not the only cup in town. The best-loved hot tea brands are also available for your Keurig® brewer, including Bigelow, Celestial Seasonings, Lipton, Tazo, Tetley, and Twinings. And on a chilly day, kids and grown-ups alike love a cup of hot apple cider or hot cocoa.
Enjoy cold beverages with Brew Over Ice packs. With specially-crafted Brew Over Ice K-Cup® and Vue® packs, it's a cinch to make a fresh and refreshing cup of iced coffee, iced tea, lemonade or other fruit brew. Just fill a cup with ice (do not use glass), pop in a pack, brew, stir and enjoy!
Involve your brewer for cooking and baking. There are lots of great recipes that call for coffee, both sweet and savory dishes. Your Keurig® brewer makes it easy to brew a single cup, fast and without cleanup. This blog has a boatload of delicious recipes, so do a little perusing for some culinary ideas.
- Use My K-Cup® for whole bean and ground options. For some, there's nothing like a cup of coffee from freshly ground beans. The My K-Cup® refill pack allows you to grind your own beans or to try varieties that are only available in bags.
But it's not just what's in the cup that matters. Here are a few more tips.
- A little maintenance goes a long way. Changing your water filter every 2 months and descaling your brewer every 3-6 months will not only help extend the life of your brewer, it'll keep your beverages tasting great. Learn more.
- Keep your packs in order. There are a few great space-saving options for keeping your packs handy and organized, including carousels, dispensers, and under-brewer drawers. Check out your storage options for both K-Cup® and Vue® packs.
- Stock up for guests. When company comes, it's a real treat to allow everyone to choose his or her own beverage, so keep a stash of options (see #s 1,2, and 3 above) and make it easy for guests to browse packs (see #7 above).
- Keep in touch. Sign up at GreenMountainCoffee.com and Keurig.com (bottom left) to receive emails with exclusive discounts and special offers, new product information, and more. We're also on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Google+.
Got an idea to make it an even 10? We'd love to hear from you!
