Wales's capital and largest city, Cardiff has been named as the European Capital of Sport for 2014, and is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the UK. The biggest draws are the Millenium Stadium (for the Welsh national rugby union and football teams), Cardiff Arms Park (home of Cardiff Blues and Cardiff RFC rugby union teams), and the interactive 'Doctor Who Experience' at the BBC Roath Lock Studios in Cardiff Bay – where the long-running series is filmed. When it comes to restaurants in Cardiff, the regeneration of the city has been matched by a quiet revolution in its food offerings. The overall style tends to be easy-going rather than formal, with superior Welsh ingredients taking centre stage, from the French-accented Woods Brasserie (noted for fresh fish) and Bully's, a tiny restaurant with a big reputation among local foodies, to the classy South Indian cooking of Mint and Mustard.

from staff reports
TRAVERSE CITY — Sean Gusrang delivered the big blow Friday night.
The Traverse City rightfielder belted a three-run home run in the seventh inning to power the Beach Bums past the Road Warriors 3-2 in a Frontier League game at Wuerfel Park.
Gusrang's blast came off Shawn Marquardt, who took a two-hit shutout into the seventh.
Chase Burch led off the frame with a walk. Jeff Flagg then singled Burch to second. After Kyle Colligan popped out to first, Flagg stole second and Gusrang crushed a 3-2 pitch for his ?? 15th homer of the season.
Reid Kelly was masterful in his seven innings on the mound, allowing just two hits and striking out 10, to earn his 10th win.
The Road Warriors broke up a scoreless contest in the top of the seventh when designated hitter Doug Thennis tripled and scored on an error.
After Gusrang's homer, the Road Warriors put another run on the board in the eighth off reliever Nick Capito when with two outs Jacob Daniel singled and Matt Wright tripled. Matt Miller came in to strike out Ryan Kaup to end the rally. Miller then pitched the ninth for the save.

SANTA CLARA, CA - AUGUST 06: (L-R) San Francisco 49ers Team President Jed York, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bay Area Council President and CEO Jim Wunderman talk as they walk to a meeting with members of the Bay Area Council August 6, 2010 in Santa Clara, California. Governor Schwarzenegger spoke to business leaders about California's economy as state legislatures continue to battle over California's budget which is now almost six weeks overdue. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images) *** Local Caption *** Arnold Schwarzenegger;Jed York;Jim Wunderman
San Francisco 49ers Faithful haven't forgotten the rhetorical rampage coach Mike Singletary issued when reports of Jimmy Raye's "garbled" playcalling surfaced the day after the Seattle loss in Week 1. Samurai Mike was furious that this information had anonymously become public.
"If there's something you have to say, go say it and say that you said it," Singletary told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. "But don't go say a bunch of stuff, 'But don't tell him I said it.' To me that's a rat. That's a coward and a rat."
Singletary was not finished. "I don't want to spend my time trying to find the rat. In time, the smell will come," Singletary told the San Francisco Chronicle.
Coach, there are now strong indications that the rat is your boss, 49ers owner Jed York. The same guy who hired you and signs your checks.
It's pure speculation, but it's speculation that has popped up among the Bay Area's most esteemed 49ers beat writers since York fired off the infamous "We're going to win the division" text message to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
"Jed is letting everyone know he texts national writers," Lowell Cohn notes in the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. "That also lets us suspect he's done it before — i.e., he is a leak in his own organization. Is he The Rat?"
"(York) texted ESPN's Adam Schefter," noted the Sacramento Bee's Matt Barrows. "Gee, I wonder who leaked the Jimmy Raye/Michael Lewis/Takeo Spikes items." A Jason LaCanfora NFL.com report in Week 2 had erroneously claimed Lewis and Spikes were being immediately benched.
Another report on Singletary's job security or lack thereof surfaced on Yahoo! Sports Tuesday.
"Doesn't that make you wonder about the true identity of the 'rat?'" Tim Kawakami writes in an 800-word Mercury News hit piece, clearly suspecting Jed York as the rat. "I know around the league, it's not that hard to figure this one out."
Many of us aren't as sure as Kawakami that Jed York is, in fact, the so-called rat.
But until we know for sure, just for laughs, maybe we should nickname the rat "Tim Rat-tay".
Joe Kukura is a freelance writer who probably should have worked an "I smell a rat!" gangster movie reference into all this.

Google and Adobe are trying to create products that can now let you track and measure all of those Likes and Retweets into meaningful results for your brand. Adobe lets you track social media users who move to your website along with tracking sales of anything purchased on your site. Google also has a new addition to Google Analytics to show the relationship between social media and sales.
Barc thinks that these two products are a great addition to social media campaigns but there is still some subjectivity when it comes to measurement. We will be able to have greater visibility into social media and marketing data yet without straightforward results. Measuring social media will continue to evolve just as each social media outlet does.

Guage is one of the best and in this totally debauched flick she does everything you can want. Cannot imagine anyone giving this back after one night even if you made it to the end of Guage's scene. Not much here for the ladies, a man's lonely night pull, a great consolation for having no one to be with. Unfortunately the other ladies are not so hot.
FEELING BLACK gets four stars because there are not that many films with black women and white men. It seems like there are lots of black men doing it with white women and lots and lots of all black, but no where near enough white men with blacks. So it gets a star just for that. There is no pretence of a story, just a bunch of sex scenes, but there are four truly hot ones, and even those with unenthusiastic ladies are not bad. At least three of these ladies are as hot as anyone you could name, although none have a big name. The worst part is that a couple of the white guys are a bit dull. But I ain't watching the movie to look at them.
The women all looked like over-the-hill hookers. Sad flick. Worn out and run down, more like prostitutes that had been on the street too many nights. Not prono actresses. Want to see some real Amazons in action? Rent Black anal Nurses or Black Market.
Fresh Meat 17 is one of those films labeled �new cummers, �amateur angels,� etc., etc. Probably the same ladies appear as �fresh meat� for a dozen different directors. The ladies in the first (and the best) scene in this XXX seem very experienced behind them. If Michelle Wild was not famous, she certainly got so fast as the new hot Euro property, and for good reason. Sandy Style may be unknown but she is not �new� to fcking. The first scene in the morgue may seem truly perverse � necrophilia. But remember this is the movies. Sandy Style does a good job of pretending to be dead, until sex wakes the dead! Relax it is fun. Besides, haven�t you been with at least one woman who laid there like she was dead. And every hole gets filled with blistering sex.
Juliana Kincaid and Aimee Tyler really do look like fresh meat, new young bodies untouched by the surgeon�s scalpel. Don�t you get tired of bodies that have been nipped and tucked in a dozen places? These two look like girls the average Joe might get to lay, good looking but not plastic. They also fck like they are trying to prove they should be the next super star. This anal scene looks like a first time, and she certainly appears like she is just learning to love it, stretched on a good sized cock. Too bad the set is just an ordinary poolside.
Lucy Lee is a latex pro on boat cruise. She is just too good with two men not to have done this a few times before. Marvelous natural and classic body, hope nobody talks her into trying to improve what she has. If you don�t get enough of her DP in the main film, click on the bonus section. If that isn�t enough to get you off, you are hopeless.
Angel Long and Nyomi Marcela end the film but the black lady just doesn�t get enough action. It would have been nice to have the black woman finish us off after all the white women but not to be. At least the blond�s anal/oral action is a ball drainer.
Totally bitchin hot, with a variety of all positions and delights, great blowjobs, better anal, and each scene does not go on forever. Unless you do not like little Asians mose this to the top of your list.
You should see this just for the lady in body paint, very erotic. The whole film is remarkably hot considering no anal. A simple device moves the scenes along - a photographer's models keep getting turned on, both the men and women are attractive - few couples will hold back till the flick ends.
BEAUTIFUL is a clever and sophisticated take off on the Evil Witch/Snow White theme. Talent and creative filming earned this movie several AVN awards. It has everything you could want in a XXX video, well, almost. This is certainly the direction XXX should take.
There is a lot of build up to the first sex scene which is long, exciting and passionate. The actress is a little �thick� and big breasted, but a fierce fcking machine. It is a good opener, unfortunately followed by an overlong lesbo scene. (Who likes these scenes anyway? Gay gals must like all girl shows, are there guys who like this?) The neatest trick in the movie is locating the orgy scene mid-movie. This is one of the best staged orgies ever and shows the director to be imaginative and capable of organizing a complicated scene. It is just too short.
The most beautiful pussy award must go to Kaylani Lei. She is shaved so smooth that it looks like not a single hair ever grew between her legs, one of the benefits of being Asian to start with. Even so, her lips and her slit are so small, it is hard to imagine her being penetrated by any but the smallest tools. The actor isn�t that big but you hold your breath when he starts into her. The �climatic� scene is a truly hot couples� scene � Prince Charming and Snow White in a sex crazed lovers� embrace. The ladies will love it. The final scene is the evil witch in black latex with her slave, a little kinky but nothing more nasty than a little ATM.
This is a good show for those who do not like any anal, a good show for someone�s first porno, especially for the first porno with the new girlfriend. Looks almost like a real movie, hot sex but nothing to scare away the average person.
Crap. Unless you are a lesbian, then you want to rent this. otherwise don't waste the time.
This is worth renting just for the first scene alone with Jada Fire, a big black bitch with a big cunt, a big ass, big tits, and big nipples. And a big cock sucking, filthy talking mouth. She is every white man's fantasy. But you must like the other scenes better if you like your black women skinny. And any of you black women reading this should know the white men in this flick just love black women so much they will tongue-fuck your ass. You will get off watching these men - just don't let your black man know.
From the opening scene with the beautiful Asia Carrera you will find this one of the most inventive XXX films ever made, and with the men a lot more interesting than the standard movie prop for the female performer. Asia�s partner is a tattooed, muscular man with a mohawk. And the sets, the photography, the lighting, the costumes just keep on getting better and better. While no one is better at sucking a cock than Asia, in this movie every scene could be in a �best of the best� oral compilation.
In the second scene Olivia Del Rio is the �Empress of Light,� a purely stunning woman in a dazzling outfit on a set flowing with fog. Almost makes you forget you are watching a fck film, until she starts fcking. Well, it is acting but, oh, if just once in a while you could get your woman to act like that. She ends the scene with one of the best ever oral cum shots. Her partner is a true erotic star. He gets all ready to pop inside her, squeezes his cock off until he is back in her mouth and then lets fly. Rewindable!!!
Kaylani Lei is the �centerpiece� of this XXX and she certainly deserves a magnificent vehicle like this but her first scene is an overly long lesbo job � so no 5 star.
The �bad guys� are featured in an orgy scene in a �den of iniquity.� The men are weird and pervy looking evil gods -The women are tattooed and pierced multiple times, sex slaves in latex. A great group scene with grand BJ�s has all four on the dais facing each other, sucking face, while their rumps are up in the air getting fckd. You will think that next they will all be royally reamed together, but you will wrong. Should have been anal but not.
We finally get a scene with Kaylani Lei with a man and it is worth the wait. She is the archtype Japanese beauty, small natural breasts, tight hard body, and a super sucker. Men will just cry if they don�t have a woman to suck them dry after this movie.
The ending promises a sequel, lets hope.

Next year's leadership race is on. Here's one citizen's wish list for new Knoxville "live, work, and play" priorities in 2011 and beyond:
• New respect for Knoxville taxpayers and property owners in pursuit of targeted economic development and future community solutions. City leaders should not delegate critical priorities to less capable entities (i.e. Chamber, CBID, TYP, etc.), should only offer Housing First resources to proven, successful supportive housing initiatives (Helen Ross McNabb), and a new, creative mayor should be the champion of the South Knox waterfront development and, as our economy turns around, prioritize and connect all of Knoxville's assets and pedestrian, taxpayer, conventioneer, and tourist interests.
• New respect for Knoxville's creative class and regional entrepreneurs as we spotlight and leverage our considerable arts, high-tech, and small-business communities to dramatically boost our city's image and identity, our citizens' positive career opportunities, our real estate values, and our tax base for future city growth.
• New, creative solutions with Knox County's leadership, including, but not limited to, greater public/private educational resources and outcomes, the ideal downtown library/children's discovery center solution, a much-needed Safety Center, expanded greenway connections in East and North Knoxville, major arts festival sponsorships, and targeted economic development with existing brownfields and underutilized public buildings and spaces.
• New, creative solutions for those who suffer the most by their own hand and at the hand of others. Real, long-term solutions that take the chronic and transient homeless populations off our pedestrian streets and into programs, that work for everyone concerned, and/or returned to those who care most for them.
• New, rebranded, and marketable Knoxville that leverages low taxes, a great quality-of-life, arts and cultural assets, and low-overhead business opportunities should be our top priority once we have a great number of taxpayers, citizens, and business owners mobilized and motivated to help sell Knoxville to the world like never before.
I'm sure that we will have a historic election next year with our first female mayor. Let's hope that such a historic change becomes the historic opportunity to really take "live, work, and play" to the next level with a diverse group of citizens that can make great things happen.

Portal Pre-Load Underway, Half-Life 2: Episode Two Pre-Load This Week (Updated)by Chris Faylor, Oct 02, 2007 3:04pm PDT
Update: Though no specific date has been set, a Valve representative tells Shacknews that Half-Life 2: Episode Two will be available for pre-load later this week. Original Story: Those who pre-purchased Valve's first person brain twister Portal through Steam, either in the $44.99 ultra compilation The Orange Box or by its separate $19.99 listing, can now begin downloading the game's assets. Commonly referred to as pre-loading, the idea is to let gamers gradually download a game in advance so they only need to download a small enabling file on the day of its release, preventing owners from being held back by slow download speeds and clogged servers.

Orioles announce Sarasota spring-training schedule
Date: December 3, 2009

LENNY VON DOHLEN: "You can't get much better than 'Tender Mercies,' " said Von Dohlen, who made his screen debut in the 1983 film as the wide-eyed leader of a youthful group of musicians. Then came "Electric Dreams" (1984), in which he starred. He's made only two films since: "Billy Galvin" (1988) and "Dracula's Widow" (1988), the latter "one that you do to pay the rent."
A New Yorker, aged 30, he's racked up extensive stage credits, and done some episodic TV. Next up: a one-man show, in which he'd play Russian poet Mayakovsky, with "several theaters interested."

Police are investigating after a 19-year-old man was shot and killed Tuesday afternoon in East Nashville.
Alajawon Dillard, 19, was shot just before noon near a residence in the 1600 block of Chase Street.
Police said a 32-year-old man answered the door at his girlfriend's house, when he was confronted by Dillard who was holding a pistol.
The man inside the home, who was also armed, fired at Dillard.
Investigators are still working to determine what led to the shooting and whether Dillard's fatal wound came from a gun fired by another man or was accidentally self-inflicted.
Charges have not been filed, but the investigation continues. An autopsy is scheduled for Wednesday.

Cameron Batson accounted for four offensive touchdowns to lead Class 2A's No. 2 Millwood over No. 5 Adair 34-7 in a clash of titans Friday night at Gene Winfield Stadium.
Batson led the senior-laden Falcons (3-0) against the young Warriors, tossing three long touchdowns and running for another. Millwood has beaten a pair of top-five opponents on the road in back-to-back weeks. The Falcons also snapped Adair's 23-game regular season winning streak.
"They're as good as you get in high school football," AHS head coach Mark Lippe said. Lippe scheduled the meeting between the two teams. "They don't have very many weaknesses. This game has no bearing on whether or not we play in December. What it does is it kind of serves as a measuring stick. We got a lot of valuable lessons we can learn from this game."
The main sticking point for Lippe and his staff in the following week will be missed opportunities.
Millwood was the benificiary of more than a few fortunate bounces. After forcing a three-and-out on the Falcons' opening drive of the game, the ensuing punt bounced off of a Warrior gunner. The Falcons recovered the muffed kick and scored their first touchdown, a 23-yard pass from Batson to Quincy Dotson on fourth-and-9 just under eight minutes into the game.
The Warriors fell behind 21-0 at half but drove into Millwood territory to open the third quarter but surrendered the ball on downs. Batson then connected with D'Andre Mays for a 78-yard passing score, which deflected off of two Adair defenders before landing in Mays' arms.
"When we watch that film, it will show us how valuable opportunities are in a football game like this. We had a few chances. We get a stop or two, but then we let them make another play, and that's what got us. You can't keep continuing to let them make plays."
Adair went 0-for-2 in the red zone, including a turnover on downs as quarterback BJ Bradbury overthrew Cody Eby in the end zone on fourth down to neutralize a 14-play drive in the second quarter. Millwood was up 14-0 at the time.
The other missed red zone shot was just as painful. After a botched long snap on a punt gave Adair possession at the Falcon 13-yard-line, Bradbury rolled right on first down and threw an interception into the waiting arms of Mays, who returned it 105 yards for a back-breaking score.
"What I'm proud of is our kids kept battling," Lippe said. "They didn't back off the line."
Adair finally got on the scoreboard in the fourth quarter with a 56-yard bomb from Bradbury to Eby. The Warriors kept Millwood out of the end zone in the fourth quarter.
"Defensively, our coaching staff had a great plan," Lippe said. "We executed pretty well. It was not easy for them. Our kids flew to the football, and they never once gave in."
Batson was 12-of-19 through the air for 219 yards and three scores. He also ran 14 times for 60 yards and a score. All of his totals were game-highs.
Bradbury completed 11 of his 21 passes for 128 yards and a touchdown. He also threw his first pick of the year. Eby led all receivers in catches (seven) and yards (92). Senior Cody Yoder rumbled for a team-high 27 yards on eight carries.

Carrie Roy
Coordinator, Humanities Research Bridge
Postdoc, Living Environments Laboratory
The traditional form and function of books and texts, from Medieval manuscripts to modern printed pages, continues to excerpt heavy influence over common techniques for representing information and data. This talk with present several projects and tools, developed by researchers across the UW Madison campus, that break with this convention to explore new methods of artistic and technology-driven representations and explorations of texts and data. From the digital to the physical, these projects are essentially turning texts and data into objects, to shape new modes of engagement with and understanding of texts.

What Became of Borders?
Daniel Raff
The Wharton School
University of Pennsylvania
This talk concerns the Borders bookstore chain, discussing its origins as a used book store and, from 1971, an unusually broadly merchandised new book store on the periphery of the campus of a major Midwestern research university, its development into a national chain with at peak more than five hundred establishments, bringing broad merchandising of books to parts of America which had never before enjoyed such opportunities, and the company's long slide into the bankruptcy which came in 2011. The larger subject is the modern history, present, and future of the retail trade in books in the United States.

Danky Fellowship Lecture: Sex and Comix
View a recording of Sex and Comix here
Ian Blechschmidt
School of Communication
Northwestern University
Part of the underground publishing scene that helped to fuel the countercultural revolution, underground comix gained a following in the late sixties and early seventies with their scathing critiques of American culture and their depictions of violence, drugs, and especially sex. Many comix scholars point to the role that boundary-pushing depictions of sex played in breaking down taboos and creating new possibilities for artistic expression; this talk, however, investigates the reception rather than the production of these comix and how the use of raucous and graphic depictions of sex appealed to their audiences. In particular, it will examine how the comix' use of explicit sex could have provided readers with resources for imagining alternative gender subjectivities to middle-class, nuclear-family-oriented ones being enforced by the period's dominant culture. It will also propose additional avenues for investigating how actual readers related to and through comix and how this can contribute to a better understanding of the role of print culture in American countercultural movements.

On Main Street/ Outside the Main Stream: Perspectives on Libraries in the History of Print Culture
Louise Robbins
Professor Emeritus
School of Library and Information Studies
Professor Emerita Louise Robbins, co-editor of Libraries and the Reading Public in Twentieth Century America, will present an overview of the latest publication of the Center for the History of Print and Digital Culture. Bracketed by Wayne Wiegand's take on small town libraries from 1876 to 1956 and Janice Radway's examination of girl zines and zine librarians, the volume explores the research use of libraries' own records in innovative ways and delineates "itineraries" of print culture that tend to be bottom up rather than top down.

Beyond Ephemerality: Kids, Comics, and History
Carol L. Tilley
Assistant Professor
The Graduate School of Library and Information Science
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Once, reading comics was as ubiquitous a pastime for young people as playing video games is today. In the 1940s and 50s in the United States, young people read, collected, and traded comics. They integrated comics into their play, used comics to understand the world, and found inspiration in comics that fueled lifelong avocations. More so than video game playing, comics reading crossed gender, racial, and socio-economic boundaries. Comics inspired as much adult ire as today's video games. Adults feared that by engaging with this medium, young people would grow up degraded, illiterate, and violent.
Although comics were never intended only for child audiences, this medium is often stereotyped in this way. Comics have also attracted other negative stereotypes as being cheap, commercial, and inconsequential. Certainly the economic success of comics-based superhero films and television shows during the past three decades help improve this negative image. A steadily burgeoning scholarship on comics is moving this medium from the periphery toward the center. Still, negative stereotypes, together with the lingering effects of the historical disapprobation, encourage some people to dismiss comics and their readership as ephemeral at best, and harmful at worst.
This presentation will provide an overview of young people's historical engagement with comics, focusing on the decades of the 1940s and 50s. It will provide specific examples of how these young readers integrated comics in their lives and responded to the mediums' critics. By giving a voice to these impassioned readers, this research extends the current debates in unexpected and fascinating ways.

Microphotography: A Pre-Digital History of Digitization
Mary Murrell
A.W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow
Department of Anthropology
This talk will explore the thoughts and activities of a few notable librarians, scientists, bureaucrats, and utopians who, from the turn of the twentieth century through World War II, viewed the book and its institutions as inadequate, and even detrimental, to the intellectual needs of modernity. I specifically attend to how these men sought resolution, through microphotographic means, to four specific problems: library growth; the inadequacy of the book and the library for twentieth-century science; the limits that print publication exercised on circulation and thus accessibility; and the perishability of modern paper. By focusing on the period before the digital computer, and by pursuing this "analog" history of mass book digitization, I seek in this talk to establish a broader historical terrain for understanding mass book digitization not just as a newer practice of photographic reproduction but also as a ongoing critique of the book.
Mary Murrell is an A. W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow (2012-14) at the UWM's Center for the Humanities and a lecturer in UWM's Department of Anthropology. She is currently turning her 2012 dissertation from the University of California, Berkeley, entitled "The Open Book: Digital Form in the Making," into a book.

"Unlock your body's healing ability naturally"
Bodywork as a healing tool has been around for thousands of years in many cultures. Touching is a natural human reaction to pain and stress, and for conveying compassion and support.
Think of the last time you bumped your head or had a sore calf. What did you do? Rubbed it, right? The same was true of our earliest ancestors. Healers throughout time and throughout the world have instinctually and independently developed a wide range of therapeutic techniques using touch.
Many are still in use today, and with good reason. We now have scientific proof of the benefits of bodywork - benefits ranging from treating chronic diseases and injuries to alleviating the growing tensions of our modern lifestyles.
Having a massage does more than just relax your body and mind - there are specific physiological and psychological changes which occur, even more so when massage is utilized as a preventative, frequent therapy and not simply mere luxury. Bodywork not only feels good, but it can cure what ails you.
I help all living creatures through alternative therapies including Massage/Bodywork and Sound wave Therapy.

We live in a culture of widespread abundance, at least in material terms. Most of us can easily access plenty of food, transportation, technology and housing.
So why do we look at everything in our lives from a mindset of scarcity? We often look at the wealth we don't have instead of looking at the blessings we do have. We even have this outlook in our search for love.
When we experience a break-up, we panic that there might not be another chance at love. I suspect that's what's behind all the angst we put ourselves through. We ask ourselves, and others, what went wrong and why. We give so many extra chances to a match who is wrong for us, because we want so badly to have someone in our lives.
I thought many times, "I have to make this one work out. I have to, otherwise I'm going to be alone." It certainly led me down a path of failed relationships. This set me up for a lot of disappointment and hurt.
Why do we do this to ourselves?
But I know I'm not the only one. I see it in the women's message board on the forums. I see it in discussions with my friends. The mindset of approaching dates and relationships as scarce, is downright self-destructive. We can't possibly approach anything in our lives as if it was our last chance.
Let's go back to the example of material things: no one goes around thinking, "I have to get this season's iPhone 5; otherwise I'll never have another phone." No one asks her friends, "Why didn't I catch that bus? What went wrong? Maybe the bus just isn't that into me? Time is running out; who knows how many other buses are out there? Why is it so hard to find a trustworthy bus?" Come on.
One place where this mentality is overtly obvious is on TV. One of my guilty pleasures is the TV show, The Bachelor. To me, it's the most unfortunate portrayal of the search for love. All the contestants are young, attractive, accomplished and marriage-minded, but those 25 women competing for one man, talk about how he is their last, or only, chance at finding love. I do take into account that the show is scripted; but even so, this is an accurate reflection of the reality I've experienced.
There's no reason to think that being in a relationship vs. being alone and lonely are our only two options.
One way to approach the search for a relationship is to keep in mind that God truly wants our happiness. As Catholics, we believe that God will provide. And many of us do approach the search for relationships that way. But many of us don't. That is what saddens me. God does provide, always, in every area of life.
Even if there are few Catholics in your area, or the search for love yields few potential dates, God will help you discover his will. Maybe not now, but when the time is right, God will provide. Time is not running out; we're working on God's time.
Instead of thinking, "a good man/woman is hard to find," or "there is no one here for me," we could start thinking, "the right person will show up when God thinks I'm ready."
There are enough iPhones, enough food, and certainly enough buses available. In fact, this society has more than enough; we are abundant with blessings. It is no different with relationships. God has already blessed us abundantly. Believe that he will always provide.

It's just so insanely hard to wait for His plan regarding love life, the biggest challenge I've ever faced in my life in fact, especially when you are used to going after and working for your goals. Anyone else feel this way?
Yes Sir bro I feel that way at times Keep your head up brother
Yep! Patience and trust is a big challenge. I find Ecclesiastes comforting in this regard. "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven."
Definitely so, so, so difficult to wait!! I keep telling myself that Trust & Patience are virtues given to us through His grace…….although telling myself that DOESN'T make it any easier!! Ugh!
Yes, I know what you mean. Any other challenge in life you can take concrete, tangible steps toward achieving. Need a job? Put out resumes. Want to buy a house? Start saving your money. You can measure the results; measure how far you have to go or how long it's gonna be til you meet your goal. Waiting on God's timing is harder because you have no way of knowing how long it will take, if you are close or far away, or if it will even happen at all.
Exactly Anne!
I think that part of the trick is to recognize the ABUNDANCE OF LOVE in your life already! To love yourself as a creation of God, to love the people who bring happiness to your life, to love the challenges that make you stronger or wiser, and to love your situation in life (good or bad) as it is uniquely yours to enjoy or endure! Things tend to reveal themselves once you have faith that you will find them, create an environment to have them revealed, then allow them to manifest. An innocent man died for our salvation, SURELY there are men (or women) alive right now that are meant to complement such an abundance of true love that exists already.
Completely agree! I wonder if that it doesn't apply to men in the same way, since this is written from a more female perspective… As men we are supposed to put ourselves out there and do the initiating: not imprudently or out of desperation, of course! However, if we are waiting for the "perfect" moment, I believe that we will miss out on the opportunity we were supposed to take. "Pray as though everything depends on God, but act as if everything depends on you." St. Augustine
Thinking of abundance is great and the best way forward and putting our hope in God because I like to always remind myself that my hope is in the Lord and not the man who calls me or asks me out. It is good to be among a circle of trust where others can remind you of this when you find it hard.
Finding a relationship (when typing out seems wiered) lol is very different from seeking employment for instance because when I was looking for a job I was putting the word out there and soliciting every prospect I could, definetely not they way to approach this as far as relationship is concerned.:)
Guys you are great, wonderful men but you got the wrong message!!!!!!!A woman does not want to be thought of as a goal to achieve!!!!!!It will happen naturally maybe do not try so hard,,,,,it will be worth the wait.
Joanne, don't get me wrong, leading a strong Catholic marriage is a "goal" (or need, or desire, etc.) of mine, but I don't really view individual women as a "goal."
I think my understanding of the comment by Daniel Is goal of achieving a meaningful relationship, I doubt he was referring to women as goals.
Muy acertado este articulo. pienso que en ocasiones no entendemos el plan de Dios, Estoy convencida por mi experiencia propia que esa pareja que El tiene llegara cuando Dios crea conveniente y ya este preparada para ello.
Pero hago una invitacion a todos esos hombres miembros de CM a que den pasos en fe cuando vean que esa mujer les interesa, busque la manera de conocerce, no le den largas al encuentro, no importa el lugar donde ella viva, en Dios siempre vamos seguros.
De acuerdo contigo en un 50%. Abraham conoció la verdadera voluntad de Dios cuando emprendió un camino,cuando tomó una acción, no se sentó a esperar A veces conforme pasa el tiempo ,nos dejamos abrazar por el temor,y este temor nos hace cometer errores. Algunos el temor a la soledad los lleva a entrar en relaciones inadecuadas, algunos el temor los lleva a la inmovilidad, no hacen nada y esperan que Dios suene una campana sobre la cabeza de alguien,indicándoles que este es el indicado…..Algunos oran pidiendo desesperadamente por la pareja de su vida y cuando alguien se acerca ……..sacan una lista interminable de requisitos que ni ellos mismos llenan.Hay que recordar que el amor es un sentimiento maravilloso de aceptación , somos seres imperfectos per perfectibles y el amor nos hace mejores.Estoy de acuerdo en que cuando un gentil miembro de CM se sienta atraído por una chica, deba acercarse a ella con la misma calidez humana con la que le gustaría que alguien se acercase a él.Dar el primer paso, es un signo de que creemos en que el amor existe y está al alcance de nosotros.Dios nos ama y hay muchos corazones deseosos de compartir su amor con nosotros.No importa si nos equivocamos una vez y otra vez,de repente sucederá que el amor llegará cunado menos lo pienses.Entonces, deberás dar todos los pasos para no dejarlo morir.
Irene, gracias!!
I agree with Renai, and have often felt the way Daniel and Jamie do as well. Sometimes my friends would lament "oh woe is me, there are no good guys left out there," and then some guy friend would lament "where have all the good girls gone?" and I want to bash their heads together and say "open your eyes!!!! She's been coming to bible study with you for years and you haven't even noticed each other!!!"
Just remember, there are thousands of good, holy, Catholic guys and gals out there. All you need is one, and it will likely happen when you least expect and once you have given your will over to God in total.
This article is so true! A good book to read on God's Will and finding peace with it is "Searching for and Maintaining Peace: A Small Treatise on Peace of Heart" by Father Jacques Phillipe.
It is so hard to be patient and content with God's time, this book has helped me a lot in that regard. :0)
Just came across this article and your comment / reading recommendation. I will definitely have to check it out… I've been struggling so much with patience in terms of finding the right man. Thanks so much!
Sarah, I agree completely with this book recommendation!
Thanks for the uplifting words. I have to admit that I have thought of relationships in the manner you describe, as far as wanting to save them so I wouldn't be alone.
But for a woman in her late 30′s or early '40s who wants dearly to have a family, every man she meets may well be her last chance, and for a man in his 40′s who doesn't want to marry a woman in her 20′s, every woman he meets may well be his last chance. That stark reality can also be a positive motivating factor for those who are being too picky, if it doesn't lead them into a truly bad relationship. If you're driving through the desert, you have to take the "LAST CHANCE GAS" signs seriously. (Having driven through many rural areas in the Midwest, I know whereof I speak.)
Andrew I totally agree with you. I am approaching 50 and have never been married and I really do think that I am at that LAST CHANCE place right now. I have already passed by the "able to have children" place with much sorrow. These aging milestones are real and not just a question of patience.
Thanks Andrew for posting this. I find it painful when I read these articles written by someone younger than me or someone who already has children. While in my search I have "passed my season" of childbearing. It is painful beyond belief when you are told "God's time is perfect!" when now that means for me no children of my own when I desired them so much. And no, I didn't not wait until I was 45 to begin looking.
Wonderful article! There is no lack, when God wants us to meet the right person they will be there :). How comforting!
You mention that God will provide when we are ready, but what if we are not ready? I am 43 and do not want to spend my life alone.
O My Lord…this articles are great…but some reson seem a little depresing to me :)…i just had to say how i feel now at 39 and Single… But my life is in the Lords Hands;)
WOW! What an awesome and enlightened article! There is most definintely enough love for everyone. Love is not scarce. It is our trust that is scarce. I am reminded of 1 Corinthians. Love is patient. Love hopes all things. Love trusts.
The article contains a lot of truth I believe, however you have to very actively search for a partner if you are going to meet one. Like most things in life if you put in little effort you will get little return and also we are very dependant to some degree on other people. Many of my married friends met their partners through the efforts of other people. Also I am reminded of the saying that you should pray as if everything depended on God and work as if everything depended on yourself which I think means you should never be presumptuous of God delivering something that is within your own ability to obtain…. none of which means unfortunately that it isn't really hard to meet someone compatible, or that everyone will regardless of how much effort they put in!!!
I feel that if you truly believe that marriage is your vocation from God, then you can be at peace knowing that He has laid this call on your heart for a reason. For all us go-getters or those still waiting after a long search, this can be such a hard lesson of patience and trust for us to bear!!
So instead, I daily re-commit this desire He instilled in my heart, BACK to Him in prayer and then put my energy into becoming a woman worthy of such a man I am praying for. Is this hard? Sometimes incredibly so, but He desires my love too! He wants me to trust, love and desire Him with all my heart…and this, this is something I CAN focus on while waiting for Mr Right.
Take heart and be encouraged.
Wow this is true! God will guide if we continue to give him the control. Yes, we may not always like to wait but his will is better than our own which may lead away from God. He sees everything from above and if we remember we are his child and he loves us so much, we will feel that peace. Praying for your spouse each day can help mold the person who is meant for you. Jesus needs our love first and then he guide that special person into our life. Thanks for this article!
This is a great point, and I believe in never viewing anything as scarce, even if it is somewhat. It is understandable you felt that way though because love is sacred and also a need. The concept of viewing everything in abundance is discussed in a favorite book of mine "Making your Life a Work of Art," by Thomas Crum. You should check out the part on scarcity and let me know what you think.
I was thinking about this some more, and given the day, would like to add that life is much more like football than many of us would like to admit. If it's the fourth quarter with less than ten minutes left and a team is behind 38-0, no amount of prayer or patience is going to help; all that's left to do is play out the clock with no hope, which unfortunately is what many of us older, unmarried Catholics are left to do as we wonder why God did not see fit to help us in an obvious way. Sometimes the last bus really is the last bus and one had better not miss it.
I see that there"s a lot of angst out there. For us guys, if you wanna have a gf you gotta be somswhat aggressive, but never pushy. Women like a guy that is tactile, they like to be touched like putting your arm around her waist, or walking hand in hand and being a good conversationalist. That's my experience, anyway. Any body want to comment on this?
In my heart of hearts I know that God is a good provider of his children. He does not hurry nor tarry his time for his timing is perfect. He does not waste our bucket of tears, anguish and fears of the unknown
. As humans we worry when we reach 30′s and 40′s and still not married with children. We get defensive and sad when ask, ' why are you not married yet?'
The fear of loneliness and being alone in your old gray years is a battle that no one can ever win because they are real fears from the heart.
But we must have this unwavering faith in our master of weaver of our lives, God the Father.
He knows our heart for our heart is his channel to reach us. Its his cable lines and cellphone lines.
Material things is important in life and so is a family that you can call your own. Dad said, strike a balance and you won't go wrong.
Sooo True. Let's keep taking chances, it will all be worth it after awhile

The University of Kyambogo, one of the largest higher education institutions in Uganda recently decided to use Google Apps for tutoring students.
It seems the university authorities were impressed with the collaborative opportunities the cloud-based software could bring to the institution. In fact, it offers more than that, as staff can communicate and schedule lectures more efficiently.
Speaking with allafrica.com, Justine Zawedde, Kyambogo's Google ambassador said: "The applications provide avenues for sharing and working on the same project by different individuals at the same time within different vicinities."
She added: "If well integrated, students will use them in their focus group discussions…"
She was referring to the fact that each student receives his or her own password. This basically means the students can easily access their project or projects at any time of the day.
Among the apps available to students and university teachers are Gmail, Google Development Groups (GDGs), Calendar, drive and vault. I'm not sure, but I also think the students are using a Chromebook as well.
While this is obviously good news for those involved at Kyambogo University, Ms Zawedde also points out that internet connection in Uganda generally, and also at her university, is poor.
Justine has asked the Ugandan government to pump more money into this technology, otherwise it will leave students and teaching staff behind the rest of the world.
She also points out that the Google Apps for Education initiative can help students, lecturers, researchers and others to engage better with the rest of the academic world, both at home and abroad.

Open for just one month every autumn, The Pumpkin Ranch seems more like a scene from a child's dream than a family-run business. But that's the way the Handsaker family planned it, hoping to create a family-friendly hub that celebrated their love of all things autumn. They began by cultivating their 9-acre cornfield into a complex maze, incorporating 12 checkpoints that make sure guests are on the right path and offer clues to the ranch's Farm Scene Investigation mystery. Alongside the maze, the Handsakers have built up a 10-acre patch of pumpkins and gourds, where squashy specimens wait to be carved into jack-o'-lanterns or stomped into wine.
The hayrack ride transports guests to and fro on the ranch, speeding up walks so guests can spend more time reveling in the play zone's bounce houses, climbable straw bales, and tire towers. For more exhilarating pastimes, the ranch offers tennis-ball launchers that send the bright orbs soaring at water-based targets, exhilarating zipline courses, and fire pits to warm up chilly fall afternoons. Inside the concession stand, staffers sell steamy cups of specialty ciders and hot chocolate alongside homemade baked goods, giving guests a taste of fall, and outside, vendors serve up larger bites such as grilled and smoked meat to fuel the outdoor fun.
Two Saints Winery holds fast to the belief that wine should be representative of its region. That's why to create its award-winning Iowa wines, Two Saints uses only grapes from its own property or grapes grown by local farmers. Embedded within the rippling countryside of rural Warren County, the facility produces up to 30,000 bottles per year. And instead of using juices retrieved from faraway sources, such as California or the mini refrigerators inside seashells, Two Saints spurns flavor enhancements and lets the natural flavors of Iowa's land emerge by aging bottles for at least a year. Customers, meanwhile, can enjoy those products right at the winery, especially during free tastings and live events held frequently on the property.
Pleasantville Golf & Country Club's nine-hole course blankets the Marion County countryside with a circuit of tree-lined fairways. Originally opened in 1965, the course boasts the trademarks of a mature layout, with well-defined greens, tall timbers, and fairways that are starting to show flecks of gray. The semiprivate club also encompasses an outdoor swimming pool and Bogey's, a grill with a full-service bar and a menu of sandwiches, burgers, and other casual eats.:
A shimmering butterfly hovers suspended in a pink glass teardrop. Glass bands wind around each other like ribbons of pulled taffy to form a glass icicle. Intricate and distinct, the glass artwork at Indianola Glass Creations reflects the diverse specialties of the shops' glassworkers. Shop partner and lampwork instructor Bobbi Oelmann says it's this versatility that first drew her to the medium. On any given day, you can find her and her fellow artists slumping glass in the shop's kiln, blowing glass in the torch room, or meticulously cutting panes of stained glass into adorable geometric shapes. Artists can easily customize these glass pieces to suit customers' specifications—they create earrings to match a prized pendant, for instance, or fire custom-blown glass ornaments.
Artists not only sell their artwork and jewelry, but empower budding artists to create their own one-of-a-kind creations with weekly classes. Groups of 3–10 students may learn to turn glass rods into beads during a lampworking class, or piece together a stained-glass ornament. To ensure a positive experience, Ms. Oelmann says that instructors strive to get to know each student and his or her goals for the class: "We want them to enjoy it just as much as we do."
What started as a back-yard patch of grapes has grown over the last 17 years into the sprawling Annelise Winery. Overseen by an experienced winemaker with multiple awards, the family-owned operation now lays claim to more than 7,000 vines. The grapes from those transform into a variety of handcrafted wines, which range from classic reds to sweet and dry whites. Whenever the winery is open to the public, visitors can head into the tasting room to sip samples of a fruit-heavy rose or a bright, semi-sweet white wine, or head out onto the covered porch to gaze out over the rolling plains and ponder the meaning of it all.
At Ridgetop Horse Ranch, students learn to ride in an indoor riding facility in the Iowa countryside. Lessons start for kids at age 3, and birthday parties give groups of budding horseback-riders a chance to ride astride a steed. During pleasure rides, visitors can trot down a wooded trail or gallop alongside a picturesque farm. For horse owners, the ranch also offers indoor and pasture boarding.

Russell County's season ended at the hands of the Monroe County Falcons Thursday night in the opening round of the 4th region tournament at Western Kentucky University's E.A. Diddle Arena with a final score of 63-55.
The Lakers finished their season 17-12 overall and were champions of the 16th district for the second straight year, finishing the overall district slate with a 7-1 record.
Monroe County shot the ball extremely well, hitting 50 percent of their shots for the game, while the Lakers struggled in the second and third quarters after leading at the end of the first quarter, 14-6.
"We allowed them to shoot over 50 percent from the field and we shot 35 percent and those are hard ballgames to win," said Laker coach Willie Feldhaus following the loss.
"We hit some shots early and we actually did a good job defensively and rebounding."
The Lakers, who officially shot 37 percent from the field, were outscored 21-8 in the second quarter and 15-7 in the third quarter and could not cut it any closer than six points down the stretch.
"We got stagnant on offense and they went into a little zone on us," he said.
"Quite honestly their length caused us a lot of problems. We couldn't get passes to the guys on the inside and they contested all of our shots on the perimeter."
While the Lakers did defeat the Falcons 61-55 back in December, Feldhaus said he saw a different group take the floor at Diddle.
"I think they shot the ball a lot better first of all," he said.
"We had difficulty scoring on them the first time, too. We had 30 points going into the fourth quarter before we pulled it out in the end."
He said this time, though, his team found themselves too far down to come back while the Falcons made the key free throws down the stretch to advance in the region tournament.
"It seemed like one of those games where not a lot went our way," he said.
Foul trouble also limited Laker starters Nick Coffey, Martin Cross and Barton Mann for much of the game with Cross and Coffey fouling out late in the fourth quarter.
Lakers Nick Britt and Hunter Best played big minutes on the perimeter during the game when Feldhaus went small due to the foul trouble and to try and force more backcourt pressure on the Falcons but with 10 more feet to cover on the college floor it was difficult for the Lakers to slow Monroe down.
Monroe County was led in scoring by Tanner Kendall with 21 points.
Caleb Sheffield finished the game with 17 points while Keaton Rich and Chad Wilson each had 10 points for the Falcons.
Russell County was led by sophomore Tyler Robertson with 29 points and 11 rebounds.
Junior Blake Aaron finished the game with 11 points, eighth grader Nick Coffey added seven points, junior Hunter Best finished with five points and sophomore Barton Mann finished with three points. Senior Lakers Martin Cross and Logan Smith combined to play 34 minutes but neither scored in their final game as a Laker.
"They are what high school athletics is all about," Feldhaus said of his senior duo. "They are multiple sport players and both waited until they were seniors before they were contributors on the basketball court. They have paid their dues and will be hard to replace."
He said he never saw anything negative out of Cross or Smith in their career as they worked their way into major contributors at the varsity level.
Looking ahead, Feldhaus said he was excited about the group coming back next season and it was up to them how much better they get in the offseason, saying it was his job to make the players into a team and that they have to care about the game enough to make themselves into a player.
"We've got a talented freshman class and we've got some sophomores that have played some minutes this year," he said.
"There will be some minutes out there next year for somebody but I couldn't tell you, right now, who that is going to be."
As it stands right now, next year's senior class will consist of Blake Aaron, Hunter Best, Brandon Bunch and C.J. Bray.
Returning starters from this year's district title team will include Aaron, Robertson, Mann and Coffey, who will be a freshman next season.

there are a few ways at least that i can think of how a electrical car/truck could charge itself,here is one way:make a car/truck with 6 wheels 4 in the back 2 in the front.2 of the 4 wheels in back of the car/truck could be generators generating the power to charge the batteries just by the wheels turning.When the batteries are full you just flip a switch as your going down the highway and your 2 wheel generators will power your car /truck directly.also a hand crank for emergency charges.September 4, 2009 at 1:50 a.m.
Alton, My ole bear has had dealerships as customers throughout the Houston area. He has spoken to several about the green cars. At one of the largest dealerships in the area, the GM said that it was great selling the cars. The problems were down the road.
1. There is no official plan for collection and destruction of the used batteries. Some dealerships are concerned with the existing regime that requirements will become so combersome.
2. Purchasers of the so called green cars are in for major sticker shock when they have to buy a new battery. They already paid a higher price to have a hybrid or electric car. Batteries can range from $1500 to $2500 currently. However, expect price increases as the problems with "getting rid" of them continue to rise.
3. The green perception of plugging in to avoid gasoline is a false sense of intelligence. As you say, electrical plants still have to exist to create the power to recharge the batteries. That wall plug is a false illusion that greenies can hide behind.September 3, 2009 at 10:34 p.m.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Authorities say the rough ocean churned up by the outer bands of Hurricane Irene have caused at least eight injuries and a near drowning in South Florida.
Palm Beach County officials say eight people were out on a jetty off Boynton Beach Inlet when a wave knocked them over. They say one person was taken to a hospital. Seven others were treated at the scene.
Up the coast in Jupiter, a man swimming in the ocean and couldn't be found right away. However, officials say he later was able to get ashore.
The National Hurricane Center reports that the rough seas are from strong northerly winds on the west side of the hurricane.
Meteorologists recorded a 53 mph gust in West Palm Beach and officials are warning people to stay away from the ocean.
