|Assistant Softball Coach (Student)
Jessica Coan is in her second year as a student assistant on the North Georgia softball coaching staff. Prior to returning to Dahlonega as a coach, Coan traveled to Europe where she played professionally for the Mannheim Tornados, a baseball and softball club based in Mannheim, Germany.
During her two seasons as a player at North Georgia, the Duluth, Ga. native was one of the top pitchers in both the Peach Belt Conference and Southeast Region, claiming numerous awards including three All-American honors in addition to the 2011 Ron Lentz National Player of the Year.
As a senior in 2012, Coan boasted a 1.44 earned run average in 223 innings of work. She retired 332 total batters (10.42 per game) and posted a 25-8 record. She was sixth in the league for ERA and led the conference with her 25 victories and 332 strikeouts.
She ended her time at North Georgia as the all-time leader in ERA (1.27) and strikeouts per seven innings (10.57). She posted a career record of 52-13 with 49 complete games, 441.1 innings pitched and 666 batters retired.
In one of the most dominating pitching performances in the history of Division II softball, Coan punched out 19 batters, the second most in NCAA Division II softball history in a 7-inning contest in a March 4, 2011 victory over Lenior-Rhyne. She was one strikeout away from tying Dori Stankewitz from Florida Southern who recorded 20 strikeouts on March 14, 1987 against Tampa University. Coan's 19 strikeouts in the 7-inning game have her tied for second all-time with Torie Bunzell of Quincy University who tallied 19 strikeouts in 2008 and again during the 2010 campaign.
Prior to coming to North Georgia, Coan was part of the pitching staff at Georgia Tech from 2008-2010. In her two seasons as a Yellow Jacket, she had a 2.94 ERA in 51 appearances and 25 starts. She was 23-6 in 173.1 innings and compiled 227 strikeouts.

I have a custom figure I made myself, Brad. I have weight mapped most of him. Poor Brad has no clothes, I have not the time to make everything for him myself. So I thought I would try borrowing some clothes. Ryan from Poser 8 has some pants that I really like But he is not weight mapped. Lets try the new features in Poser 2012 for creating conforming clothing.
Now as you can see, the two figures are very different. The zeroed pose for each does not match, and Brad is bigger and beefier than Ryan.
With Brad in the scene I load Ryans pants from the Poser 8 library. They are not weight mapped and they have different bones than Brad. But I translate the pants and pose them untill I get them as close to fitting Brad as I can.
As you can see, they dont quite fit. Brad has a bit more in back than ryan did, and so it pokes through. We shall fix that.
With the pants selected open up your morphing tool. Now we can use the morphing tool to fix the areas that poke through. You only need to work on one side of the pants since you can mirror the results to the other side.
Once you are satisfied and the pants fit fairly well we can go to the next step.
Now we want to export just the pants as an obj. So I delete brad from the scene. Leave the pants posed where they are. Restore the camera. Then export the pants as an obj. I choose the options.
You will notice that the only option I have selected is to weld body part seams. There is a reason for that. I want the pants to be exported as they are, posed and morphed to fit Brad. I do not want any groups in the pants since they dont match Brads grouping. We will let Poser do the work in grouping the pants in a later step.
New scene. Next I import my pants obj from my desk top.
Unselect everything on the selection list. I do this because I do not want anything changed in position or otherwise.
I now have a straight obj prop in my scene with no bones or groups. It is shaped to fit Brad. Next with the obj selected we go to the setup room. In the setup room select the figure you want the pants to conform to. In this case Brad. You will get a popup asking if you want to automatically group the geometry. Select yes.
Poser will transfer the groups, rig the pants and transfer all weight maps and so on. So now I have a conforming pair of pants for Brad that match his bones and fit his figure. They should bend with him.
So how do they work? Well we shall see. Save the new conforming pants to the library. Open a new scene, and I load Brad. Next I drag the new pants from the library and drop them on Brad. And the pants do indeed conform to brad.
They seem to do well in these poses I have tried. I see just a tiny bit of poke through on the right back leg. And I expect that in more extreme poses there may be more. I will continue this thread later to show you how to adjust the weight mapping in the pants to get rid of any poke through and to make the pants move even better.
All in all some very good results that only took me maybe an hour. Brad now has a pair of weight mapped and conforming pants to wear.
dreamweever (01-07-2012)
WOW! Thanks for the walk through. I believe that even I could do this for myself. I will have to wait until next week to pre-buy, September to buy, and until October to try (due to work related time constraints). Thanks again for showing this. I bet you sold a whole lot of future copies of PoserPro 2012 today.

That's a good walkthrough Phantom3d, nice job
Thank you. I was just watching the video for that. Very impressive. Probably worth the price alone. More clothes for the lesser served characters.
nobody1954 noob, but learning. Sloooooowly.
Very good tutorial. Thanks.
Nice. Now that will be very handy.
Great tutorial. Thanks phantom3d.
Is the ability to do this mostly due to the new weight mapping? Looking at your workflow, it almost looks like much of this could have been done before, tho perhaps with more difficulty.
This is actually really nearly the same as rigging the conformer with the Poser 8/earlier rigging features, yes. The big difference is that the base character's weight map is projected outwards onto the conformer. If you already know how to rig conformers via the "donor" method then you don't have anything new to learn before getting into weight mapping, you can go straight to it.
thank you for showing - that looks really great - and looks as if someone who didnt any rigging before could also do it (with a bit more time for the first times) :-)
Thank you for this, it looks very interesting .... so, older conforming clothes made for older figures may be converted to newer figures this way?
I think weight map rigging is a bit easier than the traditional system with the influence spheres.

Mazes (1)
by Mithrandir
As mentioned previously, I had an assignment which involved constructing a maze from code and letting a robot escape from it. This series won't follow the second part, it will concentrate on maze specific topics. I will write about maze generation, maze drawing, maze counting and several other aspects. Maybe I'll touch several properties of the mazes, possibly I'll write about something like the moments in statistics. Will see where this series will end and what areas will be covered by it.
This post will speak about maze construction. After a few searches for good and valid algorithms, I arrived at Jamis' blog. From there, after reading the exhaustive listing of generation procedures, I selected one algorithm to implement in Haskell and to present here. I choose the Sidewinder both because it has a nice name and because it seemed easy to implement in Haskell (requiring little state information and only a few random numbers). It runs very quickly and can be generated on the fly if needed.
It has two disadvantages though: the top row is free of walls and it can be easily solved. If starting on the lower row simple walk until you find an opening to the north and go in that direction. Repeat until you finish. If starting on the top row, you'll have to do a little backtracking but usually not a time-consuming one. Also, it doesn't produce all of the possible mazes. Solutions to all these problems will come in following articles, hopefully.
Now, for the generation part, I tweaked the algorithm a little. Instead of deciding at each cell whether to carve east or not, I started by deciding how many cells to carve east before doing any work. This will be clearer soon, after seeing the code.
First, some type definitions used to make the code look cleaner
type Length = Int type Size = (Length, Length) type Point = Size {- The cardinal directions. -} data Cardinal = N | E | S | W deriving (Eq, Show, Read, Ord, Enum) {- A cell. The list contains the openings. -} newtype Cell = C [Cardinal] deriving (Show, Read) {- Simple type for maze. -} type Maze = Array Size Cell
We have to generate a maze, we will use a function which receives the size of the maze as input and outputs the maze. Since we need randomness, we will be working in the State monad working with a random generator as the state (that's the
State StdGen thing in the signature).
genMaze :: Size -> State StdGen Maze
Basically, the generation is split into two phases: one in which we generate the important points in the maze (ends for working sets and upwards openings) and one in which the actual building is done.
genMaze s@(sx, sy) = do (ews, ups) <- gMP s return $ build sx sy ews ups
The building process is very simple, it seems that it can be generalized to any other maze generation algorithm with only a few changes. However, this is not true, to use this process you'll have to obtain a list of important points and build the maze from it. It won't even work for on-the-fly generation. But this wasn't the point at that time and is not really relevant now.
build :: Length -> Length -> [Point] -> [Point] -> Maze
We will construct an array of cells, each of them opened to the East and West first.
build sx sy ews ups = runSTArray $ do m <- newListArray ((1, 1), (sy, sx)) $ repeat $ C [E, W]
Then, using the first set of important points, the eastern openings of some cells will be closed. Using the same set, we will also close some of the western openings such that if a cell claims to be closed eastward the next cell will be closed westward.
mapM_ (blockCell m E) $ (sx, 1) : ews mapM_ (blockCell m W . first (+1)) $ filter (fst . first (/= sx)) ews
After blocking the western edges of each row we will have a set of rows, like in the following picture
mapM_ (blockCell m W . (\y -> (1, y))) [1 .. sy]
We'll have to open some cells northwards and some southwards, just like we did with the East-West relationship. Then, we will have our maze.
mapM_ (openCell m N) ups mapM_ (openCell m S . second (subtract 1)) ups return m
Opening and closing cells is in fact modifying the contents of the array.
{- Block one cell from the maze, represented as an array. -} -- blockCell :: Data.Array.MArray Size Cell -> Cardinal -> Size -> m () blockCell m d (x, y) = do e <- readArray m (y, x) writeArray m (y, x) $ block e d {- Open one cell from the maze, represented as an array. -} -- openCell :: (MArray a Cell m) => a Size Cell -> Cardinal -> Size -> m () openCell m d (x, y) = do e <- readArray m (y, x) writeArray m (y, x) $ open e d {- Block a cell from one direction. -} block :: Cell -> Cardinal -> Cell block (C l) x = C $ filter (/= x) l {- Open a cell to one direction. -} open :: Cell -> Cardinal -> Cell open (C l) x = C $ if x `elem` l then l else x : l
The only remaining part is the generation of the important points, as given by the Sidewinder's algorithm. Since the first row is special (no walls blocking eastward) we will skip it when generating the points. Only the other rows will be used to generate the important Row Points. After this, do a simple fold to construct the Maze Points used in the above build procedure.
gMP :: Size -> State StdGen ([Point], [Point]) gMP (sx, sy) = do points <- mapM (gRP 0 sx) [2..sy] return $ foldl (\(x, y) (a, b) -> (x ++ a, y ++ b)) ([], []) points
Generating the RowPoints is simple: generate two random numbers and return the points obtained from them. More exactly, construct a list of them. The numbers will represent the length of the current corridor and the offset at which the opening to the previous row will be carved.
gRP :: Coord -> Length -> Coord -> State StdGen ([Point], [Point]) gRP c sx y | sx <= 0 = return ([], []) | otherwise = do len <- state $ randomR (1, sx) up <- state $ randomR (1, len) (rx, ry) <- gRP (c + len) (sx - len) y return ((len + c, y):rx, (up + c, y):ry)
Basically, the above function is the only one which needs random numbers. However, since we want to be able to change the generation if another, more efficient, algorithm is found, the only exported function should be
The entire code can be seen on Github.
Next time we will look at how to do the actual rendering of this maze in Haskell (the above pictures were generated using a modified version of what will be presented then). Afterwards, we'll touch some more interesting topics related to mazes but I don't want to spoil anything right now.

Officials aren't sure what the closing of the Taylor County Animal Shelter means for local facilities.
Deputy Judge-Executive Jim Roberts said Wednesday he hadn't been contacted by shelter representatives about housing pets from the county.
Taylor County Fiscal Court decided last week to close the facility, which is accused of animal cruelty. The shelter also houses stray animals from LaRue, Casey, Green and Russell counties.
The closure is planned for 45 days after the Feb. 12 decision.

United Methodist Women Unveils D.C. Anti-Hate Ad
United Methodist Women believes freedom of speech must include freedom from hate speech in the nation's capitol. On Monday October 15, standing shoulder to shoulder with members from Jewish, Muslim and other Protestant faith communities, representatives of United Methodist Women made the next stop on a transit line protest to respond to anti-Islamic ads now appearing in metro stations in Washington, D.C.
Green and white signs denouncing hate speech began showing up in subway stations in New York City earlier this month and on Monday morning were being displayed in stations across the Washington, D.C., metro area. The signage counters an inflammatory and Islamophobic ad campaign put out by American Jewish blogger Pamela Geller and her organization. Her campaign attacks the Islamic community, stating that "in any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel and defeat Jihad." Geller and her organization have been labeled a hate group by the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
At the Monday press conference, Sabrina White, speaking on behalf of the almost 800,000 members of United Methodist Women, told reporters at the United Methodist building on Maryland Avenue that if one woman can purchase ad space designed to disparage Muslims and "set up an entire group of people for public contempt," then women of faith would provide an alternate message. "The United Methodist Women ad campaign has a simple message: 'Hate speech is not civilized. Support peace in word and deed. United Methodist Women: faith, hope, love in action.'"
White, who serves on the national program advisory group of United Methodist Women noted that the use of the term "savages" in the Geller ad campaign continues a painful history of the American nation, as it was used to justify massacres against Native Americans and the slavery of African Americans.
"As a nation we are still struggling to recover from the devastating impact of hate speech. Yes, with our great Constitution comes the freedom of speech. We urge everyone to also exercise our even greater responsibility to use wisdom when we speak." White spoke along with Senior Rabbi Bruce Lustig of the Washington Hebrew Congregation; the Rev. J. Herbert Nelson, director of the Office of Public Witness of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.); and Imam Mohamed Magid, president of the Islamic Society of North America. Imam Magid challenged Geller to be aware that the Islamic community is supported by partners in the faith community who stand with them and against hate speech of any kind.
The anti-hate ad campaign is now in place in New York City and Washington, D.C., and is supported by United Methodist Women and a coalition of 28 faith-based groups organized by the organization Shoulder-to-Shoulder: Standing With American Muslims, Upholding American Values campaign. Together they are calling for concerned citizens to add their names to an online petition that calls for the profits made by the transit authorities to be invested in human rights initiatives in local communities.
Geller's ads first appeared on the San Francisco, Calif., public transit system and was met with protest and action. Top San Francisco city officials released a joint statement saying that although Geller's ad is protected by the First Amendment it has "no value in facilitating constructive dialogue or advancing the cause of peace and justice." Proceeds from the ads were donated to the San Francisco Human Rights Commission.
Shoulder-to-Shoulder is seeking similar responses from New York City and Washington, D.C., city and transit authority officials, arguing that profiting from language that demeans or belittles others must not be tolerated. White concluded her press conference remarks by sharing the prayer from Psalm 19, which states, "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer."

Technical Trading Systems, Part 2: Designing the Framework
April 19, 2014
In the first installment of this series, I offered a broad overview of technical trading systems to serve as a foundation for this and subsequent articles. In that article, I referred to a trading system as "simply a set of specific trading rules or parameters that determine the entry and exit points when trading a given security." A few readers suggested that I had taken an overly simplistic view of trading systems, correctly pointing out that a trading system is much more than just a tool that identifies the entry and exit for a position. In fact, they pointed out, the entry and exit points of a trading system are only a small, albeit important, element in an overall trading system.
These comments actually segue perfectly into the second part of this series, in which I walk you through the considerations and steps to develop a complete technical trading system, covering principles that are essential to an effective system. Here, I discuss a theoretical framework for you to use when designing your own trading system.

The new mating norm: meet someone, start to date, become his friend on social networks, check out her profiles …The new mating norm: meet someone, start to date, become his friend on social networks, check out her profiles. At some point down the line, you're going to see them - pics of him with an ex, or perhaps two exes, or perhaps ten. The pics could be three years old, they could be from last week. And there they sit, living on the Internet for all eternity.
UNLESS…you break the digital wall and ask your beloved to untag himself. Is this a wonderful idea? A terrible one? Are you saving yourself from heartache and setting a good precedent for communication? Or falling on the sword of your dignity? The HowAboutWe editorial team was hopelessly divided, so we decided to offer the full range of viewpoints.
Plus: The 9 Most Annoying Things Said to Single People
Melissa Wall, Editorial Director:
I would be a hypocrite if I said, "It's ridiculous to ask your new boyfriend to untag pictures with his ex on Facebook," since I've done it. As with everything, whether it's appropriate (or advisable) all depends on circumstances. When a relationship is new, things are so fragile, and there's a lot that can upset the balance. One of the most common ways to learn more about a wonderful new person is to look through his/her Facebook photos - it'll give you an amazingly detailed look into your love interest's life, at least since 2006 or so. Naturally you should expect to see pictures of exes if you're looking through hundreds of photos over periods of years. So you should expect to have to deal with the feelings it'll bring up to see her skydiving with the same ruggedly handsome dude that took her to a wedding in Italy the month before.
But once you start to enter that crucial stage where you're both getting ready to play your full hand and commit fully, it's ok to request that he/she untag a few of those photos. Or all of them.
Plus: 10 Questions That Will Save You from Marrying the Wrong Person
Why? Because Facebook is a public place. There's absolutely nothing wrong with having and keeping photos from your past relationships - every relationship is a crucial part of you, your identity, your past, etc., and anyone you date should respect that. But there's a massive difference between having these photos stored in a private place (a folder on your hard drive) versus displayed on the world's biggest social network. Once you commit to someone, you should reflect that commitment throughout your life - you're not the exact same person you were when you were single, you're now part of a relationship. The commitment/love/devotion you feel needs to be reflected in the Real World. Commitment and love and the rest of it are just abstractions - they don't "exist" in reality except for how we manifest them (aka wearing wedding rings). So the "You" that you present to the billion or so people on Facebook also needs to evolve into this new "in a relationship" person. Which may include untagging a few photos that publicly tie you to other relationships.
Granted, if they're more than 2 years old, maybe everyone just needs to chill.
Plus: 12 Signs You're Probably Being Too Picky
Chiara Atik, Writer:
I don't think it's okay to ask your boyfriend to untag pictures of his ex on Facebook. It's revisionist history! For better or for worse, we're living in an era where your entire life history can be told through google searches, where the past 9 years of your life can be flipped through with the click of a mouse - old haircuts, apartments, trends, and, yes, relationships.
Plus: 23 Reasons to Date a Midwesterner
Having photos of an ex on Facebook is just a public, digital version of keeping around an old photo album - the point is, you (and your ex!) shouldn't really be flipping through it that often.
Presumably these pictures aren't among the most recent on his feed - the ones that show up by merely clicking on his profile. If the pictures are 10 or so clicks deep, it's silly to complain about them.
And really, why should these ancient pictures bother you? Because you're worried about people comparing you unfavorably to his ex? Or because you're worried about doing some side-by-side comparisons yourself? Either option is rooted in an insecurity that won't be allayed by the mere act of hiding pictures.
Plus: In Defense of Being a "Cat Lady"
Michelle Dozois, Editor:
Chiara basically took the words out of my mouth. "Revisionist history" is exactly it.
It's one thing if you're in a relationship - new or not - and your partner's ex is continuously uploading more photos of the two of them. If they're old photos, clearly the ex isn't ready to let go and is trying to assert a prior claim - and in that case, a conversation with your partner seems necessary. (Important that it be a discussion, not a confrontation/accusation - until you have reason to think otherwise, you can't blame your partner for what his ex is doing.) If they're new photos, that's probably also worth a (measured) conversation. But I'm digressing - we're not talking about dating someone who hangs out regularly with his ex and broadcasts the evidence online, but rather asking someone to delete old photos. So:
If I'd just started dating someone and he said "Hey, I was flipping through your Facebook and I noticed photos of you and your ex and they made me uncomfortable - can you get rid of them?" it would make me reconsider the relationship, honestly. Insecurity is unbecoming, especially when we're talking about archives. Would you also expect me to delete my Flickr photos of my exes? How about Tumblr posts? By asking the other person to download the photos and hide the evidence from the public, you're actually asking them to pay more attention to the photos than they probably otherwise would. If you can't be comfortable with the fact that your partner dated other people before you - and that other people may also stumble upon this (clearly dated, Pre-You) evidence - you might have to quit the Internet.
Plus: The 5 Friends You Need When You're Single
Scott Alden, Brand Strategist:
It's definitely okay to bring it up, but it's not really okay to expect your partner to actually do it.
Jealousy and insecurity over things that happened in the past are your own responsibility, not your partner's. That said, we all experience these feelings and social media is pretty good at fueling the fire. We're all still figuring out how to deal with the access that we have to exes - each other's and our own. At best, this gives us an opportunity for real talk about our pasts. At worst, it leads us to panic and start imposing unfair rules on each other.

Hello :)
I have struggled with my weight for the last 10 years during which time I hit my all time heaviest at 185 lbs. This pasted year I came close to reaching this weight once again and I worked very hard to drop 12 lbs within the year. But I have a goal! My goal is to lose another 25 lbs so I can have my weight scale read 145 lbs!!! So I am back to BFL to give me that extra push to help me turn my dream into a reality!
It has been 3+ years since I did my 1st bfl challenge, where I lost a total of 9lbs and 9 inches! I was happy with these results and then I got complacent. Now I'm back and turning to the bfl forum, as I know it was instrumental in helping me the last time. It keeps me accountable and everyone is so encouraging and supportive!
So today I am starting my 2nd BFL challenge!
Round 2 here we go!
Cheers :)
Had a great cardio day! Working my eating schedule within my shift work schedule which is not an easy task.
All in all, I feel as if a heavy load has been lifted off my shoulders. Committing to do this challenge and working to reach my goals has given me a sense of confidence and determination!
Feels great to be heading on the right track and to a more fit and healthy self! :)
Today is day 3 on BFL! I had my cardio run when I got up and felt great. Yesterday was upper body and I sure felt that too! :)
Eating has been a success thus far as well. Trying to keep each meal within a 300 calorie amount is working me. I have been logging my food and calories with the myfitnesspal on my iphone for almost a year now and it has become everyday practice for me.
I finally got around to getting my "before" pictures done today. Looking at those photos made me realize just "how in denial" I have been concerning my weight. I didn't think I was THAT big!! Well my eyes are wide open now!! Time to move forward and really make this challenge count!!
On the plus, my brother has decided to join my in a challenge! I'm so proud of him and it will be great to have each other for support! :)
I'll keep you posted with the progress :)
Congrats on taking the challenge again!
It sounds like you are off to a great start.
Use those pictures as motivation to keep going when times get tough or you don't want to work out.
I start on Monday and feel good about my prep.
Keep up the good work!
good luck
Good Morning :)
Today is day 5 on BFL!
Last night was an awesome lower body workout! I was a little worried that my run today would be difficult, but I pushed through and I am feeling great! I have to admit, I'm tired and my body is sore and stiff, but I know its for all the right reasons!
I been working very hard to stick with the eating plan as well, apparently I'm doing something right because I decided to weight myself today and low and behold I've lost 2lbs already! Probably water weight, but I feel different ~ lighter, smaller and I can actually see a difference.
I have NEVER had such a great start to any program. Like I said at the beginning, I have struggled with my weight for the last 9+ years, so I'm thinking what am I doing differently from all the other times?
This time I am;
I have seen some wonderful transformations (before and after pictures) on this forum that are so inspiring, of course I want to achieve my own amazing transformation. I have dreamed about it for a long time!
I am committed to myself to achieve this goal and to finally get rid of the dream and turn it into a reality! I deserve to be a happier, healthier me!
Remember it's no longer a dream, but a goal to be achieved! All the hard work that has been put in previously has gotten you where you are today!
Sure I'm tired, I'm sore, but it's only a 20 minute cardio run, or 45 minute upper/lower body workout! Out or your whole day ~ that is nothing!! So make each workout count (thanks Justacetoday for the motivation)!!
Love thyself. I do deserve to be a happy, healthy person and have a fit, trim body. I have love all around me with my family and friends who want me to be around for a very long time. Health is the key to have a long and fullfilled life!
It's a new year and a new beginning! Let's make it happen! :)
Thanks Eric and Raf for the encouragement! I will definitely use those before pics as motivation! Good Luck with your program. :)
Well first week is down and I feel it went very well. Whoo Hoo! :)
My "Reward Day" was nothing over the top. Pretty much stuck to the diet plan until dinner but I didn't over do it. I did have popcorn as my reward snack!! Ate only until I was satisfied :) I even thought about working out on Sunday, but I felt a rest day was warranted!
Week 2 is on! Just finished a great lower body workout! Had to keep switching up the weights to make sure I was working too my limits...I'm actually stronger than I think!
Further to why this challenge will be different;
I will be accountable for my transformation! I am the one who is in control of how this challenge will go! You only get out what you put in!
Happy Monday! :)
Week 2 is complete and it went not too bad overall. Had extra work shifts this week, so I tried to be as organized as possible to get through it. I did missed one cardio workout that I added to my lower body the next day and my reward day was Saturday instead of Sunday this week. Also feel like I might be fighting off a bit of a bug, so I will have to listen to my body to make sure that I am not doing more harm than good. Really need to get caught up on my sleep and that could be half of the problem. Working shift work is hard on the body at the best of times.
That is why I never get up at 4am to do a cardio workout before I go to work...I realize that my sleep is more important than running before I eat in the morning. I am already sleep deprived half the time. For this to work into my life on the long term I have to make it work into my schedule. It may not be by the book everyday, but I still do get my workout in and that is what is important. :)
Week 3 here we go!
Areas for improvement:
Meals - plan better and keep it simple.
Keep it Going!!
Good Morning All!
So last week had a rough patch, but we pulled through, continued on and looking forward to the future! I had to double up one day with lower body and cardio and I did miss one cardio day all together last week. I made a choice that I needed to catch up on my sleep more than I needed to do a cardio workout.
Week 3 has a great start to it! I see the light at the end of the tunnel with my crazy work schedule. I have been working way too much and it's been a challenge to say the least...but it is about to go back to normal! Yay! I need the rest (from work).
My goal for this week is to lose 1 lb to eat clean, increase my cardio intensity by .5mph on each level and get lots of rest.
My last nightshift tonight and I can't wait for 4 days off!! Yipeeee!
I had my run today and decided I'm going to do a little extra today, so after cardio I put in the P90X Ab Ripper X video and thought wow, this is hard!! LOL....but it won't be for too long, especially if I add it to my weekly routine twice a week! ;)
Still eating very clean...so proud of me. I made this very yummy wrap today and it's so simple...
1. whole wheat tortilla
2. 1/2 of a avocado
3. 2 hard boiled eggs
4. baby spinach leaves
basically mash the avocado and spread it on the tortilla, put as much baby spinach as you like, add eggs (sliced), salt and pepper to taste, wrap and eat! YUMMO!
Hey Lohnny- great to read your posts...there is a group that started on the 14th, too, and we would love to have you join in our thread ! It's under the headline of Starting Jan. 14, Need Support (or something very close to that!)

Spring Game Set to Kickoff Saturday at 11 a.m.
Related Links
Wednesday, April 13, 2011
Valparaiso will play its annual spring Brown and Gold football game Saturday morning at Brown Field beginning at 11 a.m. This year's format will feature the offense against the defense and admission is free.
The game is the culmination of 15 days of spring practice, which head coach Dale Carlson thinks has been very beneficial for the Crusaders.
"Our second spring practice has been very productive," Carlson said. "Our team has a much better understanding of how they are to play. We have been able to expand on our offensive and defensive systems."
The scoring for this year's game has been set, and for the offense will play like a normal game for touchdowns, PATs, and field goals. In addition, the offense can get points for three consecutive first downs, as well as for running plays of more than 10 yards or pass plays longer than 15 yards.
The defense still scores six points for a touchdown and two points for a safety, but can also tally points for a three-and-out, fourth down stops, and creating turnovers. The defense will also be rewarded for sacks and sudden changes where the offense gets the ball inside of the 35 yard line but does not score or is held to a field goal.
"Our spring game will be for the right to wear the gold practice jerseys," Carlson added. "It will be an offense versus defense event with a modified scoring system. Due to our lack of depth I anticipate running 50 to 60 total plays."
Carlson currently has 59 players on the roster during the spring season. The Crusaders will open the 2011 regular season on Saturday night, September 3, hosting Franklin at Brown Field. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.
"Our lack of depth has given each player an opportunity to get a lot of reps this spring," Carlson said. "We have a lot of video to use to evaluate where each individual player is. They all have a good understanding of their strengths and weaknesses and this will be great information for each player as he works on his game over the summer."

What is AbInit?
ABINIT is a package whose main program allows one to find the total energy, charge density and electronic structure of systems made of electrons and nuclei (molecules and periodic solids) within Density Functional Theory (DFT), using pseudopotentials and a planewave basis. ABINIT also includes options to optimize the geometry according to the DFT forces and stresses, or to perform molecular dynamics simulations using these forces, or to generate dynamical matrices, Born effective charges, and dielectric tensors. Excited states can be computed within the Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (for molecules), or within Many-Body Perturbation Theory (the GW approximation). In addition to the main ABINIT code, different utility programs are provided.
ABINIT is a project that favours development and collaboration (short presentation of the ABINIT project - 10 pages in pdf).

Boston Noirby Dennis Lehane
"Dennis Lehane advises us not to judge the genre by its Hollywood images of sharp men in fedoras lighting cigarettes for femmes fatales standing in the dark alleys. . . . [Lehane] writes persuasively of the gentrification that has . . . left people feeling crushed."-New York Times Book ReviewBrand-new stories by: Dennis Lehane, Stewart O'Nan, Patricia Powell, John Dufresne, Lynne Heitman, Don Lee, Russ Aborn, Itabari Njeri, Jim Fusilli, Brendan DuBois, and Dana Cameron.Dennis Lehane (Mystic River, The Given Day) has proven himself to be a master of both crime fiction and literary fiction. Here, he extends his literary prowess to that of master curator. In keeping with the Akashic Noir series tradition, each story in Boston Noir is set in a different neighborhood of the city-the impressively diverse collection extends from Roxbury to Cambridge, from Southie to the Boston Harbor, and all stops in between.Lehane's own contribution-the longest story in the volume-is set in his beloved home neighborhood of Dorchester and showcases his phenomenal ability to grip the heart, soul, and throat of the reader.In 2003, Lehane's novel Mystic River was adapted into film and quickly garnered six Academy Award nominations (with Sean Penn and Tim Robbins each winning Academy Awards). Boston Noir launches in November 2009 just as Shutter Island, the film based on Lehane's best-selling 2003 novel of the same title, hits the big screen.Dennis Lehane is the author of The New York Times bestseller Mystic River (also an Academy Award-winning major motion picture); Prayers for Rain; Gone, Baby, Gone (also a major motion picture); Sacred; Darkness, Take My Hand; A Drink Before the War, which won the Shamus Award for Best First Novel; and, most recently, The Given Day. A native of Dorchester, Massachusetts, he splits his time between the Boston area and Florida.
Boston Noir 2by Dennis Lehane Jaime Clarke Mary Cotton
Boston Noir 2: The Classics is now a Boston Globe best seller!"The contributor list is delightfully quirky...The collection's unifying element is a deep understanding of Boston's Byzantine worlds of race and class--as seen terrifyingly in Andre Dubus's tale of milltown resentment and pampered preppies."--The Boston Globe"14 superior selections in this 'classics' volume in Akashic's series of regional dark crime short stories, the works of established writers that have stood the test of time."--Publishers Weekly"This collection features crime stories that have already been published. But that's OK when you have the likes of Chuck Hogan, Joyce Carol Oates, Robert B. Parker, Linda Barnes, George V. Higgins, Dennis Lehane, and David Foster Wallace all under the same roof...Followers of Akashic's long-running Noir series--not to mention, of course, fans of Boston-set crime fiction--should eagerly devour this one."--Booklist"Boston Noir 2: The Classics is a thorough representation of what noir has been, is, and continues to become . . . The shadows over Boston are those of Bogart, leaning into the spotlight with that complexity of soul, that derisive navigation of morality and deviance. . . The shadows on this cover prepare the tone, that these thin darknesses can be willed into corruption with little effort, and the reader will learn the ease of giving into it."--HTML Giant"There are few gifts I enjoy more than a box of chocolates. The very best surprise me, each candy layered with unexpected delights that leave me hungry for more. The same may be said of Boston Noir 2. It's a collection of dark short stories by names you know, set in places familiar to Bostonians. Edited by Dorchester's crime fiction king and Hollywood darling, Dennis Lehane...Boston Noir 2 overflows with stories from some of the best writers of our time...This is the perfect book to open after a long day...The danger, of course, is that at the end of each story, you'll go for just one more and stay up well past your bedtime. My advice? Indulge."--Patriot LedgerClassic reprints from: Linda Barnes, Jason Brown, Andre Dubus, Chuck Hogan, George Harrar, George V. Higgins, Dennis Lehane, Joyce Carol Oates, Robert B. Parker, David Ryan, Kenneth Abel, Barbara Neely, Hannah Tinti, and David Foster Wallace.Dennis Lehane is the author of the Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro mystery series (A Drink Before the War; Darkness, Take My Hand; Sacred; Gone, Baby, Gone; Prayers for Rain; and Moonlight Mile), as well as Coronado (five stories and a play) and the award-winning novels Mystic River, Shutter Island, and The Given Day.

Coronadoby Dennis Lehane
Along with completely original material, this new collection is a compilation of the best of Dennis Lehane's previously published short fiction, including "Until Gwen," which was adapted for the stage in 2005 and appears in this book as the play Coronado. By turns suspenseful, surreal, romantic, and tragically comic, these powerful tales journey headlong into the heart of our national myths--and reveal that the truth awaiting us there is not what we would expect.
Darkness, Take My Handby Dennis Lehane
The master of the new noir, Dennis Lehane magnificently evokes the dignity and savagery of working-class Boston in this terrifying tale of darkness and redemption. Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro's latest client is a prominent Boston psychiatrist running scared from a vengeful Irish mob. The private investigators know something about cold-blooded retribution. Born and bred on the mean streets of blue-collar Dorchester, they've seen the darkness that lives in the hearts of the unfortunate. But an evil for which even they are unprepared is about to strike as secrets long-dormant erupt, setting off a chain of violent murders that will stain everything--including the truth.
The Death of Sweet Misterby Dennis Lehane Daniel Woodrell
Shug Akins is a lonely, overweight thirteen-year-old boy. His mother, Glenda, is the one person who loves him--she calls him Sweet Mister and attempts to boost his confidence and give him hope for his future. Shuggie's purported father, Red, is a brutal man with a short fuse who mocks and despises the boy. Into this small-town Ozarks mix comes Jimmy Vin Pearce, with his shiny green T-bird and his smart city clothes. When he and Glenda begin a torrid affair, a series of violent events is inevitably set in motion. The outcome will break your heart. "This is Daniel Woodrell's third book set in the Ozarks and, like the other two, Give Us a Kiss and Tomato Red, it peels back the layers from lives already made bare by poverty and petty crime." --Otto Penzler, "Penzler Pick, 2001"
A Drink Before the Warby Dennis Lehane
As richly complex and brutal as the terrain it depicts, here is the mesmerizing, darkly original novel that heralded the arrival of Dennis Lehane, the master of the new noir -- and introduced Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro, his smart and tough private investigators weaned on the blue-collar streets of Dorchester. A cabal of powerful Boston politicians is willing to pay Kenzie and Gennaro big money for a seemingly small job: to find the missing cleaning woman who stole some secret documents. As Kenzie and Gennaro learn, however, this crime is no ordinary theft. It's about justice. About right and wrong. But in Boston, finding the truth isn't just a dirty business ... it's deadly.
The Given Dayby Dennis Lehane
Set in Boston at the end of the First World War, bestselling author Dennis Lehane's extraordinary eighth novel unflinchingly captures the political and social unrest of a nation caught at the crossroads where past meets future. Filled with a cast of richly drawn, unforgettable characters, The Given Day tells the story of two families--one black, one white--swept up in a maelstrom of revolutionaries and anarchists, immigrants and ward bosses, Brahmins and ordinary citizens, all engaged in a battle for survival and power. Coursing through the pivotal events of a turbulent epoch, it explores the crippling violence and irrepressible exuberance of a country at war with, and in the thrall of, itself.
Gone, Baby, Goneby Dennis Lehane
The tough neighborhood of Dorchester is no place for the innocent or the weak. A territory defined by hard heads and even harder luck, its streets are littered with the detritus of broken families, hearts, dreams. Now, one of its youngest is missing. Private investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro don't want the case. But after pleas from the child's aunt, they open an investigation that will ultimately risk everything--their relationship, their sanity, and even their lives--to find a little girl-lost.
Live by Nightby Dennis Lehane
A New York Times best-selling author with multiple awards to his name, Lehane sets his latest in Roaring Twenties Boston, Florida, and Cuba; its no surprise that the promotion brings up HBOs Boardwalk Empire. Youngest son of an upright Boston police sergeant, Joe Coughlin opts for the dark side, working his way to the top of organized crime but also setting himself up, inevitably, for betrayal and revenge.
Moonlight Mileby Dennis Lehane
Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Dennis Lehane delivers an explosive tale of integrity and vengeance-heralding the long-awaited return of private investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro Amanda McCready was four years old when she vanished from a Boston neighborhood twelve years ago. Desperate pleas for help from the child's aunt led investigators Kenzie and Gennaro to take on the case. The pair risked everything to find the young girl-only to orchestrate her return to a neglectful mother and a broken home. Now Amanda is sixteen-and gone again. A stellar student, brilliant but aloof, she seemed destined to escape her upbringing. Yet Amanda's aunt is once more knocking on Patrick Kenzie's door, fearing the worst for the little girl who has blossomed into a striking, clever young woman-a woman who hasn't been seen in weeks. Haunted by their consciences, Kenzie and Gennaro revisit the case that troubled them the most. Their search leads them into a world of identity thieves, methamphetamine dealers, a mentally unstable crime boss and his equally demented wife, a priceless, thousand-year-old cross, and a happily homicidal Russian gangster. It's a world in which motives and allegiances constantly shift and mistakes are fatal. In their desperate fight to confront the past and find Amanda McCready, Kenzie and Gennaro will be forced to question if it's possible to do the wrong thing and still be right or to do the right thing and still be wrong. As they face an evil that goes beyond broken families and broken dreams, they discover that the sins of yesterday don't always stay buried and the crimes of today could end their lives.
Mystic Riverby Dennis Lehane
"There are threads in our lives. You pull one, and everything else gets affected." When they were children, Sean Devine, Jimmy Marcus, and Dave Boyle were friends. But then a strange car pulled tip to their street. One boy got into the car, two did not, and something terrible happened - something that ended their friendship and changed all three boys forever.Twenty-five years later, Sean Devine is a homicide detective. Jimmy Marcus is an ex-con who owns a corner store. And Dave Boyle is trying to hold his marriage together and keep his demons at bay - demons that urge him to do terrible things.When Jimmy Marcus's daughter is found murdered, Sean Devine is assigned to the case. His personal life unraveling, he must go back into a world he thought he'd left behind to confront not only the violence, of the present but the nightmares of his past. His investigation brings him into conflict with Jimmy Marcus, who finds that his old criminal impulses tempt him to solve the crime with brutal justice. And then there is Dave Boyle, who came home the night Jimmy's daughter died covered with someone else's blood.While Sean Devine attempts to use the law to return peace and order to the neighborhood, Jimmy Marcus finds his need for vengeance pushing him ever closer to a moral abyss from which lie wont be able to return, and Dave's wife, Celeste, sleeps at night with a man she fears may very well be a monster. a monster who fathered her child and hides his true nature from everyone, possibly even himself.A tense and unnerving psychological thriller, Mystic River is also an epic novel of love and loyalty, faith and family, in which people irrevocably marked by the past find themselves on a collision course with the darkest truths of their own hidden selves.
Prayers for Rainby Dennis Lehane
The master of the new noir, Dennis Lehane delivers a shattering tale of evil, depravity, and justice that captures the dark realism of Boston's gritty blue-collar streets. Private Investigator Patrick Kenzie wants to know why a former client, a perky woman in love with life, could, within six months, jump naked from a Boston landmark--the final fall in a spiral of self-destruction. What he finds is a sadistic stalker who targeted the young woman and methodically drove her to her death. A monster the law can't touch. But Kenzie can. He and his former partner, Angela Gennaro, will fight a mind-twisting battle against this psychopath even as he turns his tricks on them.
Sacredby Dennis Lehane
Dying billionaire Trevor Stone hires private detectives Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaroto find his missing daughter. Grief-stricken over the death of her mother and the impending death of her father, Desiree Stone has been missing for three weeks. So has the first investigator Stone hired to find her: Jay Becker, Patrick's mentor. Patrick and Angie are led down a trail of half-truths and corruption into a world in which a therapeutic organization may be fronting for a dangerous and seductive cult, a high-tech private investigation firm may be covering up lethal crimes, and a stolen cache of millions in illegal funds may be tied to both disappearances and a tanker full of heroin. Nothing is what it seems as the detectives travel from the windblown streets of Boston to the rum-punch sunsets of Florida's Gulf Coast. And the more Patrick and Angie discover, the more they realize that on this case any wrong step will certainly be their last . . . Snappy dialogue, explosive action scenes, and original characters have become Dennis Lehane's trademarks. With Sacred, Lehane confirms his status as today's hottest young author of first-rate mysteries that are also smartly written literary novels.
Shutter Islandby Dennis Lehane
Summer, 1954. U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels has come to Shutter Island, home of Ashecliffe Hospital for the Criminally Insane. Along with his partner, Chuck Aule, he sets out to find an escaped patient, a murderess named Rachel Solando, as a hurricane bears down upon them. But nothing at Ashecliffe Hospital is what it seems. And neither is Teddy Daniels. Is he there to find a missing patient? Or has he been sent to look into rumors of Ashecliffe's radical approach to psychiatry? An approach that may include drug experimentation, hideous surgical trials, and lethal countermoves in the shadow war against Soviet brainwashing. . . . Or is there another, more personal reason why he has come there? As the investigation deepens, the questions only mount: How has a barefoot woman escaped the island from a locked room? Who is leaving clues in the form of cryptic codes? Why is there no record of a patient committed there just one year before? What really goes on in Ward C? Why is an empty lighthouse surrounded by an electrified fence and armed guards? The closer Teddy and Chuck get to the truth, the more elusive it becomes, and the more they begin to believe that they may never leave Shutter Island. Because someone is trying to drive them insane. . . .

Fire crews save home threatened by fire in Richland CountyKindred, ND (WDAY TV) -Weather conditions are ripe for grass fires, and they broke out today across the area. Grass fires were spotted near Kindred and Erie, North Dakota, plus one between Lake Park and Detroit Lakes.
Weather conditions are ripe for grass fires, and they broke out today across the area. Grass fires were spotted near Kindred and Erie, North Dakota, plus one between Lake Park and Detroit Lakes.
Blustery winds and very dry conditions proved to be a recipe for disaster for a controlled burn in Northern Richland County. The burn got out of control around 12 this afternoon and crews have been battling the blaze all day, including tremendous efforts to save one family's home.
Stacy Flaten – Almost Lost Home in Fire: "I got a phone call while I was at work saying there was a fire coming for my house."
It's a phone call Stacy Flaten never expected, and she had one thing on her mind.
Stacy Flaten: "Try getting everything out of the house or saving what I can."
As the fire crept within a football field of her home southwest of Kindred, neighbors sprang into action.
Brett Lambrecht – Richland County Emergency Manager: "Luckily we had a bulldozer in the area working on some trees and some farmers came over and helped. Also quick response from fire departments on both ends to save it from spreading to the local house here."
Stacy Flaten: "Thank goodness for all this equipment around for helping save it."
The home was saved, but more than one hundred acres of land was not. Fire crews from eight different agencies and the Forestry Service arrived on scene to help contain the blaze.
Crews were forced to start a back burn so the fire wouldn't hop Highway 18. After that, it was about containment and letting the fire burn itself off in the sleuth.
Brett Lambrecht: "We'll just keep controlling it and highway 18 should stop it for us here."
Lambrecht says he expects crews to be on scene until at least midnight tonight. When all is said and done, he expects a total of about 150 acres of scorched earth.
