I will definitely make this again. This is the first time I have used iceberg lettuce in years and it is the right type for this salad. The only thing I omitted was the almonds, otherwise followed the exact proportions. I added the chow mein noodles after adding and tossing the rest of the ingredients with the dressing. They stayed nice and crunchy that way.
jee jee
Excellent salad...can be very portable---mix all except dressing in a big zip bag and put the dressing in a container and serve it at work or family gathering at the last minute- I have added cashews and it works great also---i do roast the sesame seeds and almonds for about 15 minutes in oven--gives a great taste
Caroline C
Because I wasn't too interested in a 700+ calorie salad, I simply put the lettuce on a plate, and added a little of each of the rest of the ingredients, e.g. one slice of crumbled bacon, a pinch of noodles etc etc. I bet this would be delicious finished off with some 'Hot Bacon Dressing' from this site! Thanks, Teri!

The largest producers of sousaphones today are C. G. Conn and King (originally owned by H. N. White), Jupiter and Yamaha. Most modern sousaphones are 3 valve BBb (double b-flat) instruments - if you are buying a sousaphone for a school band student, this is what you should buy, unless told otherwise by your instructor. Eb sousaphones are still common in parts of Europe. Sousaphones with 4 valves are less popular than the 3 valve models, due to their additional cost and significantly greater weight (nearly twice the weight of a 3-valve sousaphone) but are still being manufactured by Miraphone - a German band instrument company.
For professional quality sousaphones, we highly recommend Woodwind & Brasswind. A trusted name in band instruments for 30 years, Woodwind & Brasswind offers a hassle-free return policy, a 45 day low price guarantee and purchase assistance from their knowledgeable sales staff. Among the products they carry: world-reknowned Conn and King instruments, along with the more budget-friendly Yamaha and Jupiter lines.
If you're looking for a student sousaphone, you may also want to check out Musicians Friend - a source of musical instruments since 1983, known for their award-winning selection, values and customer service. Musician's Friend features affordably-priced student sousaphones.
Most of the sousaphones on this page are available in several finishes (silver, lacquer, satin...) and you can purchase the instrument only or select a package which includes a case and/or stand. See item details for specifics.

2012 NFL Power Rankings: Week 3 - Top 10
Follow @walterfootball for updates.
- Houston Texans (2-0) - Previously: #2 - If the Texans-Jaguars matchup was a Little League Baseball game, the umpires would have called it in the second inning. That's how lopsided it was. The kids on the Jaguars would then go home crying, save for Blaine Gabbert, who would be hiding in a secret compartment in the dugout so he wouldn't have to get hit again.
By the way, a reminder that my weekly schedule has changed. I'll be doing a live 2013 NFL Mock Draft (as well as posting weekly fantasy football rankings) on Tuesday, and then I'll post live NFL Picks on Wednesday.
- Baltimore Ravens (1-1) - Previously: #3 - I can already see some people in comment boards going: "OMGOMG OGMGO MOGMG O WALT ISS SO STUEPID HE MOVE THE RAVANS UP EVEN THO THEY LOSTED HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!"
Well, it's more that the stayed the same and the Patriots just moved down a lot. Plus, if the horrible replacement officials didn't call Jacoby Jones for a bogus offensive pass interference on what should have been a touchdown, Baltimore would be 2-0 right now. The fact that the Ravens should have won in a very tough spot says a lot about them.
- San Francisco 49ers (2-0) - Previously: #4 - I ranked the 49ers No. 4 last week. I picked them to win and cover against Detroit. However, this was not enough because I still got hate mail from a San Francisco fan:
The 49ers just keep making you look stupider and stupider hahahaha we got like the toughest schedule in the league but were just gonna roll right through it
My response:
Why stupider and stupider? I picked them to win and cover today. I was going stupider and stupider, but not I'm trending smarter and smarter ;-)
- Green Bay Packers (1-1) - Previously: #9 - Well I guess we now know for sure that the Packers didn't just beat themselves in that loss to San Francisco.
Speaking of the 49ers, if you didn't hear what Michael Irvin said earlier in the week, he predicted that Calvin Johnson would catch four touchdown passes against San Francisco. Megatron didn't even find the end zone once Sunday night.
This is the problem with hiring former athletes to do TV analysis. Yes, they know the x's and o's much better than a writer, but they usually have the I.Q. of a milk carton and/or they've suffered too many concussions to think clearly and/or they're still suffering the remnants of smoking crack earlier in their lifetime and/or they're still smoking crack.
Upon hearing what Irvin said, how did the NFL Network not drug test him? Seriously, if I were running the NFL Network, I would have asked for a urine sample right after the show was over.
- New England Patriots (1-1) - Previously: #1 - I understand the Patriots not covering against the Cardinals, but not winning? Weh? Steven L., who runs FootballFanSpot.com, said it best:
Is there anyone left in the survivor pool? The lesson: Never bet against Kevin Kolb as a 14-point underdog on the East Coast at 1 p.m. Wait, what?
- New York Giants (1-1) - Previously: #5 - Eli Manning for 510. Wow. But what was up with Greg Schiano's tactics at the end of the game? I called him up and set up an interview:
Me: Hey Greg, thanks for joining me. Sorry about your last-second loss. That had to be pretty tough on your players.
Greg Schiano: It's just one game. That's how I have to look at it.
Me: Fair enough. Now, I have to ask you, what happened at the end of the game?
Greg Schiano: Well, we were just desperate, trying to force a fluke fumble like in the San Diego-Kansas City game last year, but I think we got too carried away.
Me: OK, I guess that clears that up. Now, I want to ask you about Josh... Owww! What the hell was that?
Greg Schiano: Oh, sorry, I thought this interview was over?
Me: No, I had other questions. Like about Josh Freeman. He... ouch, dude, you just kicked me in the leg. Why did you do that?
Greg Schiano: You asked to talk about the incident at the end of the game. We did, and now the interview has come to an end.
Me: OK, fine, but, ouch! You just punched me in the knee cap. Why are you doing this?
Greg Schiano: Because the interview is over! Ha!
Me: But what does that have to do with the interview being finished? Why are you hitting me. F***, why'd you just hit me in the ankle with a hammer? Where'd you get a hammer from?
Greg Schiano: Preparation, idiot. I answered your questions, and now you're going to endure some Greg Schiano post-event punishment!
Me: No... but... I just wanted to ask questions... ahhh, why do you have a chainsaw!?
Greg Schiano: Because this interview is over! We did this at Rutgers! Have you not been watching Rutgers!? Muhahahahahahaha!!!
- Atlanta Falcons (2-0) - Previously: #7 - Here's a recap of Falcons 27, Broncos 21:
- This should have been an awesome contest featuring a Hall-of-Fame quarterback battling a young signal-caller attempting to enter the upper echelon at his position. Instead, it was a circus. The officials screwed up so much that they became the primary focus of the game. Twitter's servers probably were close to exploding based on the amount of people complaining about the refereeing.
It was simply chaotic. There were two utterly egregious instances. The first occurred at the end of the opening quarter. Knowshon Moreno fumbled (more on this later) and the Broncos came out of the pile with the ball. The officials seemingly took forever to announce who had possession, save for one ref who signaled Falcon football, even though he didn't see where the football was. Because nothing was happening, the frustrated players started pushing each other around and a fight broke out. Ray Edwards would be whistled for unnecessary roughness, but Denver was never awarded the ball.
At the end of the second quarter, the officials made a correct call on an Atlanta defensive hold. Denver originally had the ball on the Atlanta 43, so the drive should have continued at the 38. Instead, the refs marked the ball at the 32. The collegiate rule for a defensive hold is 10 yards, so that could be where they screwed up. Still though, wouldn't they have placed it at the 33 if that were the case?
There were so many inept officiating moments. There was a pass interference on a tipped pass. There was a pass interference in which the receiver wasn't even touched. There were numerous delays so the refs could confer with the league supervisor. At one point, I tweeted (@walterfootball), "I think the officials are winning this game."
The sad thing is that I don't see this being resolved soon. Steve Young was absolutely right when he said that the NFL simply doesn't care about having replacement refs because it doesn't affect the demand for football. Still though, feel free to send angry tweets @nflcommish.
- Peyton Manning had a terrible first quarter, tossing three interceptions down the middle of the field in the first eight minutes of the game. The Falcons did a tremendous job disguising coverages. Manning (24-of-37, 241 yards, TD, 3 INTs) eventually figured things out, but it was too late, as Denver couldn't stop Atlanta one last time to retain possession.
- Manning's score to Demaryius Thomas (8-78) was an outstanding catch in the end zone where the athletic wideout did a phenomenal job tapping both feet in. No other Denver receiver did anything of note.
- Willis McGahee was awesome, rushing for 113 yards and two touchdowns on just 22 carries. He was relieved by Moreno, who had the aforementioned fumble. Moreno is a sunk cost and should not be on the roster. Lance "Playa Hatas'" Ball would be a better No. 2 option out of the backfield until Ronnie Hillman is ready.
- Matt Ryan outplayed his counterpart, going 24-of-36 for 219 yards and two touchdowns. He should have had an even better night, but his receivers dropped a handful of passes. Julio Jones, who was the primary guilty party, had just 14 receiving yards on four catches.
- Ryan's touchdowns went to Roddy White (8-102) and Tony Gonzalez (7-70). Michael Turner also scored, but gained just 42 yards on 17 carries. He still looks like he's running in quicksand.
- Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1) - Previously: #12 - LaMarr Woodley guaranteed victory over the Jets, despite the fact that the Steelers were a 6-point favorite.
I have some guarantees of my own:
- The New York media will be calling for Tim Tebow soon.
- When asked if he should be the starter, Tebow will thank God for the opportunity to be doing an interview with that reporter.
- Fat Rex Ryan, kidnapped by the impostor Skinny Rex Ryan, will break free from the shackles in Skinny Rex Ryan's cabin in the woods. He'll then make his way to Jets' headquarters and eat Skinny Rex Ryan and immediately install Tebow as the starting quarterback. Because Fat Rex Ryan knows what he's doing.
- San Diego Chargers (2-0) - Previously: #16 - I still don't fully trust the Chargers, but they've been really impressive defensively through two games.
Maybe A.J. Smith knew what he's been doing this whole time. Perhaps the key to advancing deep into the playoffs is to persevere through seven long years of terrible coaching, slow starts and late December meltdowns. Then - and only then - can an NFL team finally reach its potential.
Or it could just hire a competent head coach in the first place.
- Detroit Lions (1-1) - Previously: #11 - Another team that moves up even though they losted OMG OMG OMG!!!
The Lions didn't have their entire secondary (as well as defensive tackle Corey Williams and running back Mikel Leshoure), yet they were highly competitive at San Francisco. Detroit will be much better once everyone gets healthy.
2012 NFL Power Rankings: Week 3 - Bottom 10
32. Cleveland Browns (0-2) - Previously: #32 - The Browns were the most disappointing team this weekend. I'm so upset that Brandon Weeden played relatively well. I wanted to keep making fun of his age, and I was looking forward to adding to the Things that are higher than Brandon Weeden's QB Rating thread.
I guess Cleveland fans have to be feeling pretty good. The rest of the team looked pretty competent, and yet the Browns managed to lose, so they're still the favorite in what Charlie is calling the Blow for Barkley sweepstakes.
31. Tennessee Titans (0-2) - Previously: #25 - I'm tempted to put the Titans at No. 32 because they're the only NFL team that hasn't been competitive in either of their games. But maybe they've battled just two really good teams. We'll see...
Anyway, it's the Adventures of Stupid Vince and Senile Bud! In this week's episode...
Bud Adams: Hey you, man servant, please take this note down to Jeff Fisher, pronto!
Vince Young: Derrr, I dunno what pr... printo mean derrr... is dat like when you print stuff on da comptor ha?
Bud Adams: Computer? My computer came in the mail from Dell? Finally!
Vince Young: Derrr, what should I do with da note ya gave me boss?
Bud Adams: Weh? Note? What note?
Vince Young: Ha like five minute ago you gave me da note and take it to Jeffisher ha.
Bud Adams: Fisher? I thought I fired that mustachioed a**hole years ago! Wait, who's the head coach now? It isn't Fisher is it? He better not have weaseled his way back into a job!
Vince Young: Derrr, weasel is like da rat dat is only bigger right boss ha?
Bud Adams: Man servant, what is that piece of paper you're holding in your hand? Is that for me? Give it here.
Vince Young: Derrr, OK boss, ha.
Bud Adams: What does this say, "Get me some hemorrhoid cream?" Someone needs hemorrhoid cream. Quick, man servant, get whoever gave this to you some hemorrhoid cream!
30. Oakland Raiders (0-2) - Previously: #22 - I found it funny that some NFL analyst on TV said that Oakland's addition of Matt Leinart will help Carson Palmer in Greg Knapp's offense. I can only imagine...
Carson Palmer: Matt, it's 3rd-and-12, and the game's on the line. You have experience in this offense. What should I do?
Matt Leinart: Carson, make sure you dump it off to the running back. Don't even look at those skinnier guys downfield! It's too risky!
29. Jacksonville Jaguars (0-2) - Previously: #27 - Blaine Gabbert had as many pass attempts as passing yards (13) in the third quarter. You know what that means...
The Adventures of Derek Anderson's Magic Flask!
Derek Anderson: Heyyyyzzz yeeewww gooyyy wiiitthh bbbuutttiifful bllooonn haaairr hic! Wunnn druunk forrommm my flaasskk hic! Illlll heeelpp yaaaa beeeccommm beeettorr quaarrrbbaacckk.

Derek Anderson: Commmeee maanann yyeeeerrr gunnn beee a goooddd quaarrrrrbaccck ifff ya drrrinkkk thisss hic!
Blaine Gabbert: It looks too dangerous! I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, what if it hits me hard and then I have a really painful boo-boo oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no please take me out of the game, I don't want to play anymore pleeeeaaasseee!!!

28. Miami Dolphins (1-1) - Previously: #31 - I'm too butthurt to write about the Dolphins because I was anally raped by Reggie Bush in three fantasy leagues on Sunday. I can barely walk right now.
27. Indianapolis Colts (1-1) - Previously: #30 - Andrew Luck. Still the best quarterback prospect since Robert Griffin. But I'm happy the Colts won. Had they blown a 20-6 lead and lost me $220, Luck would be the best quarterback prospect since Ryan Tannehill or maybe even Brandon Weeden.
26. Minnesota Vikings (1-1) - Previously: #24 - Facebook friend Ross F. pointed out something that Kenny Albert said during the Vikings-Colts game: "Is there any single player in the NFL who you'd rather have on offense over Percy Harvin?"
I guess Albert was too busy trying to make himself look like Adam Sandler that he forgot about, I don't know, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Eli Manning, Calvin Johnson, Jimmy Graham, Rob Gronkowski, Larry Fitzgerald, Adrian Peterson... Wait, Peterson is on Harvin's team!
25. Kansas City Chiefs (0-2) - Previously: #18 - I feel like the Chiefs will get it together. They were competitive against the Falcons without their top two defenders until the fourth quarter.
Funny e-mail from Alex F: So on NFL Sunday Countdown on ESPN, Keyshawn Johnson enlightened me with some information I was previously unaware of. Apparently the Kansas City Chiefs were leading the league with 13 rushing touchdowns in 2010 and Dwayne Bowe had 15 of them...
As I wrote earlier, former athletes usually have the I.Q. of a milk carton and/or they've suffered too many concussions to think clearly and/or they're still suffering the remnants of smoking crack earlier in their lifetime and/or they're still smoking crack.
24. St. Louis Rams (1-1) - Previously: #29 - The Rams won, so it's time to troll some of their fans in the new crappy NFL.com GameCenter Facebook chat app:
I'm not getting any contact lenses in the near future from Adam because I won't want him to stupid on my eyes. And Chuck, by the way, seems like he was too busy drinking a bottle of vodka while typing that out, which would explain all of the extra letters.
23. Cincinnati Bengals (1-1) - Previously: #23 - The Bengals will not receive any sort of power ranking promotion for beating a 39-year-old quarterback and a defense missing its best player.
It's a good thing for the Bengal fan base that the team managed to beat the Browns because of what happened Thursday night. The good people of Cincinnati must have been frustrated to see Cedric Benson run with a sense of purpose for the first time in years. So, to make them feel better about themselves, here's a picture (from Facebook friend Sergio C.) that'll cheer them up:
This seems normal at first. It's just Benson having a good time at a party. But look closely to the right. Everyone in the picture is a dude. The only girl in the picture is the one in the front, but I'm pretty convinced that Benson photoshopped her in just to make it appear that he's not at a total sausage fest. And why do I get the feeling that the person the chick replaced in the picture is a certain former NFL general manager with an affinity for long meats?

Although i dont think it will happend i hope my jets end up 32nd so we can get 1st pick, but knowing my team we'll end up staying in playoff race till about week 13 then get knocked out but still try to win so we can end up with a crappy draft pick to go along with a crappy team like we have for the past 3 seasons, other than that i dont agree with 49ers at 1 maybe 4 or 5, i dont like kaepernick

I have to disagree with you walt. The 49ers lost defensive players, has seen its best defensive players aside from Bowman grow another year into their twilight years and yet has added no1 to the mix. Chris Cook does not count and they have a huge need at corner. The fact that they are good, not great, at safety does not help the fact. You just love the NFC West teams hardcore and it doesn't matter what any other team does, in your mind those are the best. I don't see how anyone can deny that the broncos and the patriots are the best teams in the NFL right now. And I would also put the packers ahead of the 49ers and seahawks. They did pretty well last year considering they didn't have their most effective weapon in Rodgers for most of the year. With more time under Lacy's belt and a fully healthy receiving corpse, they are poised to dominate. The Packers also retained their essential defensive players on reasonable contracts and will focus on that in the draft. It is only your absurd love for the NFC West and their mobile QBs that makes you love them more. I will agree that they are both top 6 teams at overall talent, but neither of them are the top teams. Also the Saints could challenge these teams now that they have a very strong secondary to go with their improved D line and always epic offense.

49ers at #1 is a joke. I'm not even a Seahawks fan and I think they should be at #1. They won the fricking Super Bowl, dude! "Almost winning" is like finishing 4th in the Olympics.

Walt we get it you're male Sarah Mclachlan. That being said, I agree Vick is a waste of flesh and a terrible quarterback, but Rex Ryan is a very, very good coach. He took a team of sh*t and got them to eight wins. While Vick sucks, he's better than Geno Smith. While they did nothing to get better they also did nothing to get worse. Likely go 7-9 or 8-8 again.
And I'm a Dolphins fan

Why do you have the chargers listed as the #12 team if you clearly write you don't think they will make the playoffs, also the Vick/Jets talk is ridiculous, he didn't sandbag the eagles playoff team last year and he was benched mid season.

Just saw the rest of it. Lol, this is horrible. Did you even put any thought whatsoever into this? Titans are definitely way too high without a run game and the lost of Verner. McCourty does his part but Verner definitely held his own and was the defense.
Rams are overrated, especially with Bradford at QB. Please, throw that team in the dumpster. Great defense, I admit. Run game is good, passing needs some work but still too high up there.
Hit it with the Cardinals, made a great run.
I guess the Panthers are way down the list because they have no WRs? I'm sure their ranking will change so I'll leave that for now.
Colts should be higher, in the 8th spot would be perfect. Luck is just magical.
Eagles and Ravens should be in the top 10. Good coaching, both have playmakers, young teams.
Falcons are too high? But then again, injuries definitely slowed them down last year.
Steelers should be higher and the Bengals are some pretenders, particularly the almight "Red Rocket" ahaha, what a joke. Marvin Lewis is a joke too. Been there for WAY too long. Won't be surprised if he's fired after or during the season.
SLEEPER: Buccaneers/Fins(unbiased opinion lol) for next season.

Don't agree with the Yets at #32. Jags or Cowboys should definitely be there. Name me a playmaker on the Jaguars. Oh wait, YOU CAN'T.
In the Yets defense, Rex Ryan is an amazing coach, let's not forget about his 2 appearances in the conference championship WITH SANCHEZ! He is real coach and is very vocal and a motivator, I see a 6 win team at the moment, definitely not last in the league.
Also, only reason why the Fins sucked last year is because of the O-line and horrible offensive play calling. Could have, well SHOULD HAVE been 10-6, 9-7.

A prime berth on Lyme's tumbledown seafront is one of the Harbour Inn's great assets, and it has the bonus of a terrace and veranda beside a stretch of sandy beach. Mother and son Sue and Mark Oldfield run the place, while Mark's sister is responsible for the seascapes that decorate the walls of the bar. Food-wise, locally landed seafood is the main attraction, and it's worth looking for specials such as hake fillet with crab ravioli and chive beurre blanc, lobster thermidor or plaice stuffed with asparagus mousse. Otherwise, fill up on slow-roast Devon pork belly with bubble and squeak, lasagne or a plate of cold cuts. The pub also sports a decent wine list with some locally brewed sparklers for those lazy days – no wonder it's popular with the boating types who gather around iconic Cobb harbour in the summer.

Lone Survivor
Mark Wahlberg, Taylor Kitsch, Emile Hirsch, Ben Foster
Directed by Peter Berg
What to say about a war film whose outcome is evident in the title? In the case of Lone Survivor, you commend the outstanding job done by writer-director Peter Berg in telling the remarkable true story recounted by Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell in his book of the same name. In 2005, medic and sniper Luttrell (Mark Wahlberg), Lt. Michael Murphy (Taylor Kitsch), gunner's mate Danny P. Dietz (Emile Hirsch) and sonar technician Matthew "Axe" Axelson (Ben Foster) were deployed to the Afghan mountains as a surveillance team for Operation Red Wings, a mission targeting Taliban commander Ahmad Shah (Yousuf Azami) and his fighters.
The movie doesn't go much beyond cliché in establishing the camaraderie among these SEALs while in training. But once on duty, Berg (Friday Night Lights, The Kingdom) proves a virtuoso at showing how action defines character. And Wahlberg, Kitsch, Hirsch and Foster add to the impact.
The story changes course when the four SEALs, hidden on the mountain slopes, are seen by three unarmed Afghan goatherds. Are they Taliban? And if so, should they be executed to save the mission? Murphy, the ranking officer played with subtlety and power by Kitsch, follows conscience, not tactics, and persuades his team to let them go.
Then what? Ambush, is what. After the youngest goatherd runs down the mountain to inform on the SEALs, Taliban forces, numbering 140, gather on a ridge and start shooting. Cut off from HQ and badly bruised from rocks and branches while rolling downhill, the four SEALs take their own share of casualties. But they are fatally outnumbered. The bravura filmmaking in this sequence is astounding. But Berg's real achievement is keeping the human element front and center as Luttrell watches his comrades picked off one by one, despite a daring helicopter rescue attempt.
All praise to Wahlberg for a performance of shattering ferocity and feeling, especially so when Luttrell, at his most vulnerable, is offered protection by an enemy father and son. Berg rightly lets the people trump the politics. Like the best war movies, Lone Survivor laces action with moral questions that haunt and provoke.

Each spring, a group of students spends the semester studying engineering and German language and culture in Lafayette's faculty-led program at Jacobs University Bremen in Germany.
The program enables engineering students to earn engineering credits while studying abroad so they will not fall behind in their curricular requirements. The following photos were taken by chemical engineering major Xingjian "Max" Ma '14 (Shenyang, China) in Bremen and beyond.
The faculty-led semester gives students the best of both worlds. They get to experience a foreign culture with the guidance of familiar faculty mentors, taking classes from Lafayette professors as well as those at host institutions. They also take part in field trips, which are planned and led by Lafayette faculty with the help of local organizers.
The College also offers faculty-led semester abroad programs in London, England; Madrid, Spain; and San Jose, Costa Rica. Previous faculty-led semesters have been in Athens, Greece; Brussels, Belgium; and Dijon, France.

BEVERLY HILLS, California (AP) -- Guess that's why they call it acting. Tajh Mowry (MOHR'-ee) says he has a little nephew, so he knows his way around taking care of a kid. But in tonight's season finale of "Baby Daddy," his character Tucker is supposed to be a guy who's learning how to take care of a baby. Mowry says "watching a guy change a diaper is always going to be more comical than watching a woman." So he says, he had to fake having no baby-raising skills.
says she forgave Cowell for his remark -- but says if they crossed paths today she'd ask: "'How you like me now?"'

Cute little sculptures such as these seem to be prevalent above doorways and entrances on and around Gramercy Park brownstones and townhouses.
The top one comes from a townhouse across from the park; the one below shows two cherubs guarding a doorway on Irving Place.
They're nice to see at the start of a new year!

Mill Creek Hawks inline hockey player Avery Barrett provides leadership and experience to a young and upcoming team.
"As a young team, we've had several discouraging games, yet Avery has never given less than 100 percent when he's on the rink," head coach Todd Galucki said. "When Avery plays, you can't tell if it's the beginning of the game or late in the game, if it's a close game or a blowout, his continuous effort is consistent throughout."
Barrett is a talented star player who realizes the importance of working as a team.
"Avery has the talent to take over a game with his individual skills, and the discipline to realize the importance of including his teammates as well," Galucki added.
According to Coach Galucki, Barrett's poise and steady play have been key factors in shaping this young team. He is looked upon as a leader in the locker room, on the bench, as well as on the rink.
"Avery is not a boisterous leader, in fact he's rather quiet and reserved, but his positive energy on the bench contributes to his effectiveness as a team leader," Galucki explained. "He rarely allows his teammates to get discouraged, which can happen easily on a young team. And I've noticed how his teammates feed off his effort and enthusiasm. When they see how much effort he puts into his game, they all seem to step up their effort. That's the mark of a true team leader."
Barrett started playing inline hockey at age 7 and started travel hockey at age 8. In seventh grade he began playing ice hockey while still playing inline hockey. By eighth grade, he was playing on a Junior Thrashers travel ice hockey team, a travel inline team and played the first year Mill Creek started their ice hockey team.
"Needless to say, his eighth grade year was very busy with him playing on three different teams," Barrett's mother Angie Barrett wrote in an email to Dacula Patch. "By the end of that season, he proved himself worthy and was the only eighth grader on the starting line up in the playoff games for Mill Creek Ice Hawks hockey team. He made the winning goals in the quarter and semi final games which took the team to the state championship game which they won that year."
In the summer prior to his eighth grade year, Barrett played for the Georgia State inline hockey team. The team traveled to Chicago to represent Georgia and took second place. The following spring Barrett made a Junior Thrasher Ice Hockey team and traveled to Canada where they took second place in their division.
In Barrett's freshman and sophomore years, he played travel ice hockey for the Atlanta Knights Midget A and AA teams where he traveled to numerous out of state tournaments including trips to Chicago and Washington D.C. He also still played for the Mill Creek Ice Hawks.
Be sure to congratulate Barrett for being named Athlete of the Week by writing him a note in the comments below!

Thomas Middleditch is locked in to play Jeb Schrute, the brother of Rainn Wilson's Dwight Schrute in a potential Office spinoff called The Farm, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The spin-off centers around Dwight as he works as a beet farmer and runs a bed and breakfast. His brother Jeb, whose jobs have included stints as a worm farmer and Bigfoot hunter, reportedly runs a successful pot farm in northern California. Described as "a happy-go-lucky guy who's excited but not capable, motivated but lacking follow through in the potential," Jeb is said to not have Dwight's tenacity, principle or work ethic.
Middleditch joins a cast that also includes Majandra Delfino as Dwight's younger sister Frannie, as well as Blake Garrett as his nephew, Cameron.
The Farm is getting an unusual introduction: the pilot is slated to run as an episode of The Office, ostensibly sometime this season, given that showrunner Greg Daniels just announced it would be the last for the long-running series.
Middleditch, an alum up of the Upright Citizen's Brigade, has appeared in a bunch of shorts for both Funny or Die and College Humor, while he recently scored a role in Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis' recent flick The Campaign.

- Lawyer's demand-letter threat to reveal sexual liaisons was not extortion, appellate court says

Lawyer's demand-letter threat to reveal sexual liaisons was not extortion, appellate court says
Posted Jul 17, 2013 2:30 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
Ruling in a case that has been closely watched by lawyers, a California appeals court held that a pre-litigation demand letter threatening to reveal an opponent's sexual activities if he did not provide an accounting and return allegedly embezzled business funds did not amount to extortion.
The opponent, former reality television star Mike "Boogie" Malin, responded to the demand letter by filing suit against celebrity attorney Martin "Marty" Singer, and a trial court judge agreed that the demand-letter threat was extortion. But the state Court of Appeal reversed on Tuesday, explaining in its opinion (PDF) that the claimed sexual activities were "inextricably tied" to the alleged embezzlement at issue in the pending civil complaint by Singer's client, Shereene Arazm, and hence protected by litigation privilege. A draft of her proposed complaint was attached to the demand letter.
"The demand letter accused Malin of embezzling money and simply informed him that Arazm knew how he had spent those funds," the court wrote. "There is no doubt the demand letter could have appropriately noted that the filing of the complaint would disclose Malin had spent stolen monies on a car or a villa, if that had been the case. The fact that the funds were allegedly used for a more provocative purpose does not make the threatened disclosure of that purpose during litigation extortion. We cannot conclude that the exposure of Malin's alleged activities would subject him to any more disgrace than the claim that he was an embezzler."
The Recorder (sub. req.) and The Wrap have stories.
"We have been completely vindicated by the Court of Appeal's holding that our prelitigation demand letter was not extortion," Singer told The Wrap. "The defensive lawsuit that Malin filed was a desperate and futile attempt to prevent (my client) from pursuing claims for embezzlement."
A representative for Malin, who starred on a season of Big Brother, did not immediately respond to a request for comment, The Wrap says.

FOREST, Va. —
Police in Virginia are looking for those responsible for the theft of a church's nativity scene.
Bedford County sheriff's Capt. Mike Miller says the theft occurred at Shiloh United Methodist Church in Forest.
The nativity scene was discovered missing Monday morning. The News & Advance reports the only part of it that wasn't taken was a lamb and the manger.
Church council chairman Kenneth Revis hopes the nativity scene is returned in time for Christmas. He says, "You just don't steal from Jesus and get away with it."

Found March 24, 2013 on Fox Sports Arizona:
PLAYERS: Patrick Corbin, Randall Delgado, Justin Upton, Wade Miley, Kirk Gibson, Kevin Towers
TEAMS: Arizona Diamondbacks, Atlanta Braves
TEAMS: Arizona Diamondbacks, Atlanta Braves
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- As spring training enters its final week Monday, the fifth spot in the Diamondbacks' starting rotation remains probably the team's biggest unanswered question. The competition between left-hander Patrick Corbin and right-hander Randall Delgado has, however, seen a bit of separation after the pair's back-to-back starts Friday and Saturday, and it appears Corbin is in prime position to win the job. For his part, Corbin feels he's done all he can to show the team he's worthy of the final rotation spot and isn't worrying too much about the looming decision. "My goal now is to get ready for the season," Corbin said after his start Friday night. "I feel I've done everything they've asked. I feel that if they pick me for that spot, I can go out there and compete." Against the Indians on Friday, Corbin allowed two runs on three hits over five innings. It was just his latest impressive showing. In 19 23 innings over six Cactus League appearances, Corbin has a 3.66 ERA, 19 strikeouts and seven walks. Corbin, 23, also has an advantage over Delgado, also 23, in his track record with the D-backs. While Delgado was acquired from the Braves in December as part of the Justin Upton rade, Corbin has already made 17 starts for the D-backs, all last season. That history and Corbin's left-handedness -- the D-backs have said that they'd prefer a second left in the rotation to go along with Wade Miley -- will undoubtedly factor into the team's decision. A decision could come at any time, as manager Kirk Gibson suggested Sunday that the team is getting ready to make some moves, but it could also go until the end of spring training, with each pitcher getting one more start. Either way, general manager Kevin Towers will have a heavy hand in the decision, probably even the final say. "It's a process, and we won't make that decision until KT's ready to make that decision," Gibson said Saturday. "Ultimately it's his call when it's time to make the decision, and we as a group will make that decision. "Ultimately, he is the GM. If he wants Joe Blow to be that guy, he's going to be that guy. That's not how it works, but we communicate throughout the process." Pitching coach Charles Nagy also will be involved in the decision. Delgado may have fallen out of the race with his rough start Saturday in Surprise. Against the Royals, Delgado gave up six runs on nine hits, including three home runs, and issued four walks. Gibson said afterward that Delgado just wasn't hitting his spots the way he needed to. "He was on and off," Gibson said. "He actually had some good innings, and then he had a couple walks, got himself in trouble with the bunts. He's got to be more consistent." Delgado had impressed enough in previous two starts that the competition appeared almost dead even. In those two starts combined, he allowed two runs on nine hits in nine innings. After Saturday's setback, Delgado is 2-1 with a 6.88 ERA, six walks and 10 strikeouts over 17 innings this spring. Complicating the decision a bit is Wade Miley's health. The left-hander pitched in a game Sunday for the first time since being scratched with biceps discomfort March 12. He pitched 3 13 innings and allowed four runs on six hits, including two home runs. He said afterward that he felt no discomfort and believed he'd be ready to start the season normally. As long as Miley is healthy, there will be just one spot available, even if the D-backs use an off day to skip Miley the first time through the rotation. That appears to be the most likely scenario at this point. Delgado may or may not get another start, with a good one at the very least making the D-backs' decision harder. But right now, it looks like Corbin will break camp with the major league team for the first time in his career. Follow Tyler Lockman on Twitter

After falling in love with Penelope Cruz' look, I'm brought right back down to earth by Amy Adams.
The star wore a stunning white floral print Carolina Herrera Resort 2010 gown with intricate bead work, but for me it doesn't work on Amy.
I assume many of you will love it, and if you do let me know via the comments because for me this isn't a Best Dressed Of The Week contender.
She looks a little tired, the dress doesn't flatter her, her hair is really mumsy plus the off-the-shoulder neckline looks awkward on her yet elegant on the model.
Apart from the gown and the gold VBH clutch I don't like anything here.

The Explanation
(for those who require one)
And, of course, that is what all of this is -- all of this: the one song, ever changing, ever reincarnated, that speaks somehow from and to and for that which is ineffable within us and without us, that is both prayer and deliverance, folly and wisdom, that inspires us to dance or smile or simply to go on, senselessly, incomprehensibly, beatifically, in the face of mortality and the truth that our lives are more ill-writ, ill-rhymed and fleeting than any song, except perhaps those songs -- that song, endlesly reincarnated -- born of that truth, be it the moon and June of that truth, or the wordless blue moan, or the rotgut or the elegant poetry of it. That nameless black-hulled ship of Ulysses, that long black train, that Terraplane, that mystery train, that Rocket '88', that Buick 6 -- same journey, same miracle, same end and endlessness."

Some photos are ours, and others are of Chihuahuas that other Chi "parents" have been kind enough to send. But that isn't enough. There are also pictures from books and calendars and anywhere else I can find them (legitimately, that is)
I hope you enjoy these pictures!
"Please don't take my picture!"
I can't begin to describe what a joy Yoda has been in our lives. Chihuahuas are a constant source of entertainment. It's so easy to fall in love with such a small, sweet creature. If only I had a picture for every time I thought "oh, what a cute picture that would be", I could fill up 20 web sites!
I would love to share your Chihuahua pictures with the other Chi friends who visit here, so if you have a picture or two (or more!) to share, please email them to .
Your pictures will not be used for any purpose other than to share on this Chihuahua Pictures site. Please add a few words about your Chi if you'd like to share a story with others.
New pictures will be added regularly (as I receive them), so if you haven't seen your favorite Chihuahua picture yet, be sure to check again soon.
In addition to the Chihuahua pics, I've added a few topics you might find interesting, so I hope you'll explore my site and enjoy!
Now if only I could teach our little Yoda to read he could enjoy it too!

Hannah: Cop shows crack me up now
8:41am Tuesday 26th June 2012 in National Entertainment News © Press Association 2014
John Hannah has confessed he can't take detective dramas seriously since starring in spoof show A Touch Of Cloth.
The Scottish actor plays DCI Jack Cloth in Charlie Brooker's mock cop show, set to air on Sky1 HD this summer.
And he revealed: "I can't watch any of those shows now without finding them hysterically funny, even the serious ones, because they're just worthy or maybe they're not worthy, they just try too hard."
John said co-star Suranne Jones, who plays straight-talking DC Anne Oldman, had a quick turnaround between filming the spoof series and returning to ITV detective drama Scott & Bailey.
"I think it started getting tricky for her in the last week because she was about to go back onto Scott & Bailey, so she was reading the script for that and we were sitting in the van one night and I was saying, 'Read us one of your scenes for your proper cop show'," John recalled.
"(Suranne) read this scene out and it just cracked us up, literally, it could have been in Cloth - it was full of acronyms and actors talking in cop speak."

There are many things to do for Valentine's Day in the Seattle-Tacoma area! Impress your sweetie with a romantic dinner, go out for a cool event, get out of town, or kick back at home with a movie. The options for Valentine's Day in Seattle-Tacoma are varied. No matter what you enjoy doing, and even no matter if you are single or coupled, there are things to do.
Also see the Valentine's Day 2014 events calendar!
1. Romantic Restaurants in Seattle
If you are interested in the classic romantic dinner out for Valentine's Day, Seattle has many fine restaurants. Some of the finest are close to downtown Seattle:
- Chez Shea offers a French twist on the romantic evening with fresh local ingredients - 94 Pike Street
- Il Bistro is upscale Italian accented by candlelit tables and a fine wine list - 93 Pike Street
- Maximilien Restaurant is another French restaurant, known for its beautiful views of the water and mountains - 81 Pike Street
- The Pink Door has lovely bay views, live entertainment, a regular trapeze artist, and fine Italian-American food - 1919 Post Alley
If you want something a little different (and not downtown), Salty's on Alki Beach has great seafood, steak, and water views, or even dine at the top of the Space Needle.
In Tacoma, the best romantic restaurants are mostly found in the downtown area. These include El Gaucho, the Melting Pot, and Indochine.
2. Romantic Hotels in Seattle
While what makes a romantic hotel can, of course, be subjective, most couples will likely enjoy a stay at one of Seattle's upscale historical hotels. Sorrento at 900 Madison Street, the Edgewater at 2411 Alaskan Way, and Fairmont Olympic at 411 University Street are all worth considering for historic atmosphere, beautifully decorated rooms, and amazing customer service. Other romantic options include the Alexis Hotel, Inn at the Market, Marriott Seattle Waterfront, or the Eagle Harbor Inn on Bainbridge Island.
Tacoma is not nearly as well known for historical or romantic hotels, but there are some newer options downtown—Hotel Murano and the Marriott. The Silver Cloud Inn on the Waterfront is also worthy of consideration. It may be better to look toward Tacoma's cute bed and breakfasts for a romantic weekend.
3. Seattle Romantic Getaways
Getting out of town for a romantic weekend can be a great way to celebrate Valentine's Day. Within a three-hour drive (or less) from Seattle are both Portland and Vancouver, as well as the ocean, San Juan Islands, mountain getaways, and small towns with cozy atmospheres such as Poulsbo or Leavenworth.
4. Valentine's Day Parties
Valentine's Day parties are a great way to get out and celebrate, and one of the best things to do if you're single on V-day. Some of these require reservations or tickets in advance. Hoopsta Entertainment has Valentine's Day cruise parties, while popular taverns and clubs like the Crocodile and Tractor often have things going on. Some of these are specifically Valentine's related, while others might have the usual karaoke night or live music on.
5. Valentine's Day Specials and Events
Many stores, wineries, and spas have Valentine's Day specials. These might include anything from fair trade flowers to deals on amazing chocolates to special menus at a restaurant. There's just might be nothing more romantic than getting a great deal!
No matter what you're into, there are events on February 14 (and often the days before and after) that can help make your Valentine's Day more fun. Get out, get active, and support a cause by joining in a fun run; learn to make a cherry pie; or take a romantic dinner cruise with Argosy.

Tea & Sympathy.
June 10th, 2013
How do you relax?
How do you destress?
How do you shrug or shake off all those negative vibes?
Some would turn to music or musical instruments, say trumpet mute at wwbw. After all, music can be really comforting.
I finally found my best stress-relievers.
I pray, I sleep, I take a shower, I write in my notebook, I blog and I drink a cup of tea on my own quiet time and place.

Happy Weekend!
April 21st, 2011
Howdy y'all!
I have been waiting for this weekend to come and now that it's Friday, I can't help but check out these yakima bike racks as we are having a fabulous weather forecast this weekend. So many things lined up this weekend and I have to finish all of my deadlines online to be able to spend quality time with my boys. First off the list is DS' soccer game, then grocery/market errands, a luncheon party with DH's Korean friends and my once-a-month salon trip. Sunday, we need to attend an in-law's engagement party. There you go, after a roller-coaster-ride-of-a-week, here I am going to savor weekend and enjoy the company of people I love.

On Monday.
August 13th, 2010
Before I log off and check out these cellulite cures, because YES, I do not have any plans on going online for 4 days in preparation for my big interview on Monday. (READ: I need to read loads and loads of tips and Public Finance Administration books, just so I can be prepared , paran oid much?).
Here's sharing my Mantra next Monday during one of the biggest ordeals of my life. I really wish all the wisdom and confidence in the world during that 1.5 hours .
Have a good weekend everyone and please please keep me in your prayers.

Day One: Gratitude Journal.
August 12th, 2010
Before I officially begin work and before my other boss asks me to research on the specs of this Samsung TV, let me share with you another spiritual milestone I am about to begin .
I am yet on another 14-day liquid fasting diet. This is probably my 3rd spiritual fasting this year, you might notice that yes, I need desperate divine intervention towards a better me, I just need to. Apart from this. I am starting my gratitude journal where I would write each night of my life all the things I am grateful for the day that was.
Fortunately, my gratitude journal is not as beautiful as the one in the pic. I have here an unused Travel Journal and might as well use it.
Hope you all have a blessed week ahead and let's all keep improving ourselves Ciao!
