Can Brown Fat Help You Lose Weight?
Are Omega-3s the New Super Food?
Consumers Ignore Calorie Labeling
Milk Really Does a Body Good!
Is That Cup of Coffee Really Harmful?
In the ongoing debate between low fat versus low carbohydrate, it looks like low carb is pulling ahead. Both are comparable at shedding pounds. But the claim that low-carb diets may lead to an elevated risk of heart disease is false. According to a recent study published in the
Annals of Internal Medicine
, low-carb diets may actually reduce cardiac risk factors.
Low-carb diets have been popular for years. Previous studies reported that they led to more early weight loss than low-fat diets. However, the results after one year are mixed. Previous studies of the two diet types haven't included comprehensive behavioral support programs that could improve long-term results.
The study tracked 307 people with a body-mass index (BMI) of 30-40, considered obese. Normal BMI is 18.5- 24.9, overweight is 25-29.9, and obese is 30 and over. Researchers wanted to compare weight loss after two years on a low-carb diet versus a low-fat diet when both are combined with a comprehensive behavioral support program.
Patients were assigned to either a low-carb or low-fat diet. The low-carb group was instructed to eat no more than 20 grams of carbohydrate per day for three months, then increase carbohydrate intake gradually until they achieved their desired weight. A low-carb diet allowed only low-glycemic index vegetables but with unrestricted consumption of fat and protein.
The low-fat group was instructed to decrease daily intake to between 1200 and 1800 calories per day with no more than 30% of calories from fat. All patients participated in educational programs about changing physical activity and other lifestyle factors. The program was conducted weekly for 20 weeks, then every other week of 20 weeks, then monthly for the rest of the two-year study.
After two years, patients lost an average of 7% of body weight in both groups. Think about that: The low carb group had unrestricted access to fat and protein foods but still lost as much as the calorie- and fat-restricted diet. In addition, the low-carb group improved their heart health during the second year.
During the first six months, the low-carb group had greater reductions in blood pressure, triglycerides and a certain type of LDL cholesterol. The group also had greater increases in HDL ("good") cholesterol, rising about 23% at the two-year mark.
The study shows that a behavioral support program is key to a sustained weight-loss program. Low-carb diets offer some benefits over low-fat diets in terms of reduction of cardiac risk factors. It's unclear if such diets are sustainable long term and if they'd actually reduce the incidence of heart disease.

Can Brown Fat Help You Lose Weight?
Most newborn mammals have it, including human babies. Some mammals like mice carry it into adulthood. Humans were thought to lose it after reaching maturity. But now two studies are suggesting that it may play a role in the battle against unwanted weight gain in adults. What is it? Something called brown fat.

Are Omega-3s the New Super Food?
Many foods in the grocery aisle are fortified with omega-3s: cereal, bread, pasta, muffins, peanut butter, milk, eggs, and OJ all have brands fortified with this family of unsaturated fatty acids. Omega-3s have been shown lower serum triglyceride levels, which can help reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. But do the potential health benefits justify the higher price of omega-3 fortified foods? Why not just eat foods naturally rich in omega-3s or take a fish oil capsule?

Consumers Ignore Calorie Labeling
Obesity is a modern scourge that consumes enormous health care resources, often because the condition is accompanied by diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, or arthritis. Many public health officials believe that the tendency to overeat is really an educational matter. Healthy eating advocates believe that if we can just give people the right information at the time of their food selection, they'll make healthier meal choices.

Milk Really Does a Body Good!
Most of us were brought up drinking milk with every meal. After all, it was good for us. Then a number of consumer and environmental groups raised concerns about the potential harmful effects of milk production and consumption: allergies, lactose intolerance, environmental impact, and synthetic hormone exposure all gave milk a bad name. We were also told that milk was unnecessary as a food source after childhood, and that cows contributed to pollution.

Is That Cup of Coffee Really Harmful?
Over 50% of Americans are regular coffee drinkers, consuming an estimated 400 million cups daily. Coffee has been perking up lives for centuries. But little has been known about the daily grind's health benefits. Some studies claim that coffee has harmful side effects. But it has not affected Americans' appetites for the drink.

I love the guy, but unless he gets faster, he will not be 1st Rd pick. On PSU fied, which is faster than the Combine field, he runs 4.6 . A WR that runs 4.6 will not be 1st round pick.

A lot of times I think they should do the moving 40 yard dash. Start at 60 yards, and then time the final 40 yards. A lot of these 40 times greatly vary from how you start out of the gate. It can easily account for the difference between a 4.3 and a 4.6 40 - and that starting position isn't something that's replicated on a football field really. If you combine the shuttle runs and that running 40 time, I think it gives you a better idea of how explosive someone is.
PSU12 said...
A moving 40 gives a better idea of how explosive a guy is?? I'd argue the exact opposite....that gives you a better idea of what kind of track athlete you are, not football player. Explosiveness is all about quickness off the line for most positions on the field. The moving 40 shows absolutely nothing other than top end speed....the 40 shows the more important trait of quickness IMO
Black Shoes. Basic Blues. No Name. All Game.
appoo said...
That's why I included the shuttle run, which I think does a better job than the 40 time in measuring how quick players are, and how much control over their body in those first 10 yards they have. The moving 40 tests how fast you are.
Nothing in the physical tests really show what kind of football player you are. That's not really the intent of the combine.
MZizzle2 said...
You start each play not moving though so I don't think a moving 40 time is all that important. The NFL guys wants to see how well you can get off the line and get to top end speed.

BlkShoeCole said...
You think all of those PSU players didn't go in the 1st, because of their 40 times? Interesting...
I don't know whether ARob will go in the 1st or not. However, I do know that teams that draft based off of combine numbers and 40 times tend to suck, so maybe it would be for the best for him to run a "slow" 40 time and be drafted by a team that actually watches film.

Rhode Island Avenue business robbery suspect still at large
November 2, 2011 - 08:53 am

Police say that the lone gunman entered an establishment in the 2300 block of Rhode Island Avenue NE just before 4 p.m. on Monday. He brandished a weapon and got away with an undisclosed amount of money.
The suspect is described as an 18-25-year-old black male, 5-foot-5 and 150-160 pounds with a thin build and light complexion. He also has brown dreadlocks and facial hair, authorities say.
At the time of the robbery, police say he was wearing dark-rimmed lasses, a black top and blue pants.
Anyone with information is asked to contact D.C. Police. A $10,000 reward is being offered.

While out exploring our natural area parks, you may come across one of THPRD's four Park Rangers. Rangers manage and conduct habitat restoration and trail improvements in our natural areas and support environmental education programs. A day in the life of a THPRD ranger may include removing invasive weeds in a neighborhood park, conducting habitat surveys, leading a service-learning project with a school group, or mapping THPRD's extensive trail network.
Where to find a Ranger
Rangers are typically in uniform while in the field.
Scott Hinderman: Cooper Mountain Nature Park primary ranger.
Sarah Skelly: Tualatin Hills Nature Park primary ranger
Greg Creager: natural areas within the northern half of the district.
Kyle Spinks: natural areas within the southern half of the district.
Ask a Ranger
If you have specific park or habitat questions, comments, or concerns, contact a Park Ranger. Rangers can also field questions or concerns regarding District trails, wildlife in your neighborhood, native or invasive species, or restoration projects.

This could end up being a very enjoyable evening in Cincinnati. The hometown baseball team will be given the opportunity to complete a 3 game series sweep tonight at Great American Ball Park and advance to the National League Championship Series for the first time since 1995.
The Reds will turn to a hot hand in Homer Bailey. In his final two starts of the regular season, Bailey pitched 13 innings of shutout ball, including a glorious 10 K, no-hit outing in Pittsburgh. Homer finished the regular season with an ERA of 3.68, marking the 4th consecutive year in which Bailey improved his ERA.
Enjoy yourselves tonight.
It's almost here.

Paslode updated its 16-gauge cordless finish gun and added a load of new features, the most prominent of which is a lithium-ion battery that's smaller and lighter than the nicad in the previous model. According to Paslode, this translates to 50 percent more runtime and the ability to fire 6,000 nails per charge. Fully charging a depleted battery takes an hour, but two minutes of charging will provide enough juice for 200 nails. The tool has a large thumb wheel for easy depth-of-drive adjustment, a belt hook, and a contact tip that angles back at the end (instead of forward) so you can see more easily where you're placing nails.
Price: $399. 800-222-6990. paslode.com.

Home ⋅ Unique Baby Shower Invitations ⋅ Flowers & Nature ⋅ Ann Kelle
"It was a difficult purchase ONLY for the fact that there were so many beautiful invitations and fonts to choose from. This invitation turned out great. Its cardstock is thick and the colors are bright. Purchase was completed without a hitch! I definitely recommend this product."
"I was looking for a bright and colorful invitation for my sister's baby shower and I was immediately attracted to this one. I did read the reviews before purchasing, and I could not have been happier with the product. This invitation is of very high quality and it was very easy to customize the text. I received many complements on the invitation. I also received my invites earlier than expected, which gave me plenty of time to mail them out. I would absolutely recommend this invitation if you want something bright and fun for a baby shower."
"I'm very satisfied with this product. I chose the standard paper, which is quite sturdy but nothing too fancy. The design is exactly as shown in the pictures and the photo I added to the back turned out great. Definitely order extra envelopes as the invitations don't come with enough in my opinion. The envelopes are pretty flimsy, but it isn't a real problem for me. I love the free RSVP site feature and the order status emails were helpful."
"We were able to personalize this card with cute fonts and change the colors to green and pink just how we wanted it!! It turned out exactly how we pictured it & designed it!! The paper quality of this product is very high! The print quality is also excellent! We were not disappointed about anything!!! We love tiny prints!!"
"I was able to VERY EASILY personalize the verbiage of my card. I placed a rush order which I was able to track in REAL TIME on my computer! I knew exactly where the delivery was at all times. They arrived right on time. I opened the package and was thrilled with the quality of the paper and the quality of the printing! My guests LOVED THEM! It really set the tone for a fun shower and inspired the guests to attend."

Geekologie Reader Makes Plasticine iPhone
Geekologie loyalist Mark went and made an iPhone out of Placticine modeling clay. Now I know what you're thinking, and I agree -- JUST LIKE THE REAL THING! Granted, people have already made iPhones out of all sorts of stuff, but, quite frankly, those people don't read Geekologie. Or if they do they don't write telling me how much they like me and how awesome I am. FLATTERY PAYS, FOLKS. And, amazingly, blogging.
What you see is the result of a bored day at work plus a box of plasticine. The colours are a bit messed up as we only had yellow, red, orange, green and blue.... the rest we had to mix up.
(sorry I didn't add a dinosaur app to it)
So here's what you do: you ask to borrow somebody's real iPhone, and then, once you have it in hand, you slyly turn away and then replace it with this one. Then make ringing sounds until they try to pick up! HAHAHAHAHA -- good times.
Thanks Mark, now make me a dinosaur. Go on, you promised.

Some mornings, he says, the kids line dance. Other days, they do aerobic exercise. "We try to mix it up. Last year, all we did was walk in the mornings. It got old, but at least they were moving.
"So we brainstormed over the summer and came up with this program. Everyone's loving it.
"Childhood obesity is a major problem, and we want to at least establish the mindset in these kids that physical activity is fun," he says. "Then hopefully, they'll carry on when they get older."
The kids swirl and drift from one activity to another, laughing and talking. The half hour speeds by. At the signal, kids gather up the equipment and carry it to the closet. Within minutes, the gym floor is clear, and the kids are in the bleachers, waiting for the signal to line up, class by class.
Then they're off, to class or breakfast. Nobody looks sleepy anymore.
Taking a break
A couple of hours later, it's raining outside, so Vicki Lacey is at the cafeteria tables, playing cup-stacking games that causes the kids to cross right hand over left. The clatter of cups fills the cafeteria. "Eye-hand coordination helps when you're learning to read left to right," Lacey says.
A teacher pulls a cart filled with colorful items out of a storage closet and wheels it down the hall. "That's our activity cart," DeRose says. "They're getting ready to take a physical activity break."
The activity cart goes into the classroom, and within minutes, fourth-graders are standing by their desks, throwing colorful scarves in the air, trying to turn around before they catch them. A few are pitching foam horseshoes. Others throw fuzzy balls at a sticky target. They're laughing, having fun.
In about 10 minutes, the teacher gives a one-minute warning. Students put the items back on the cart. "I love it that you can roll the cart in and roll it out," the teacher says. "Then we're back to work."
Out in the hall, DeRose is walking a child to class. "Kids became less active about the time technology started to boom," he says. "Instead of going out to play after school, they went home to watch MTV. And from MTV, they got on their computers and PlayStations, etc. etc. etc. and pretty soon, they were sitting most the time.
"At least at this school, they're active.
"This should help us pull our school's test scores up too," he says. "There's research that says kids do better academically when they're physically active. It all goes together, doesn't it?"

Oradour-sur-Glane (Occitan: Orador de Glana) is a commune in the Haute-Vienne department in the Limousin region in west-central France.
The original population was destroyed on 10 June 1944, when 642 of its inhabitants, including women and children, were massacred by a German Waffen-SS company. A new village was built after the war on a nearby site but on the orders of the then French president, Charles de Gaulle, the original has been maintained as a permanent memorial and museum.
World War II[edit]
In February 1944, 2nd SS Panzer Division ("Das Reich") was stationed in the Southern French town of Valence-d'Agen,[1] north of Toulouse, waiting to be resupplied with new equipment and freshly trained troops. After the D-Day invasion of Normandy, the division was ordered to make its way across the country to stop the Allied advance. One of the division's units was the 4th SS Panzer Grenadier Regiment ("Der Führer"). Its staff included SS-Standartenführer Sylvester Stadler as regimental commander, SS-Sturmbannführer Adolf Diekmann as commander of the regiment's 1st Battalion and SS-Sturmbannführer Otto Weidinger, who was designated Stadler's successor as regimental commander and was with the regiment for familiarisation purposes. Command of "Der Führer" passed from Stadler to Weidinger on 14 June.[2]
Early on the morning of 10 June 1944, Diekmann informed Weidinger at regimental headquarters that he had been approached by two members of the Milice; a paramilitary force belonging to the Vichy Regime. They claimed that a Waffen-SS officer was being held by the Resistance in Oradour-sur-Vayres, a nearby village. The captured German was alleged to be SS-Sturmbannführer Helmut Kämpfe, commander of the 2nd SS Panzer Reconnaissance Battalion (another unit of the "Das Reich" division), who may have been captured by the Maquis du Limousin the day before.
On 10 June, Diekmann's battalion sealed off Oradour-sur-Glane, having confused it with nearby Oradour-sur-Vayres, and ordered all the townspeople – and anyone who happened to be in or near the town – to assemble in the village square, ostensibly to have their identity papers examined. In addition to the residents of the village, the SS also apprehended six people who did not live there but had the misfortune to be riding their bikes through the village when the Germans arrived.
All the women and children were locked in the church while the village was looted. Meanwhile, the men were led to six barns and sheds where machine guns were already in place.
According to the account of a survivor, the soldiers began shooting at them, aiming for their legs so that they would die slowly. Once the victims were no longer able to move, the soldiers covered their bodies with fuel and set the barns on fire. Only six men escaped; one of them was later seen walking down a road heading for the cemetery and was shot dead. In all, 190 men perished.
The soldiers proceeded to the church and placed an incendiary device there. After it was ignited, women and children tried to escape through the doors and windows of the church, but they were met with machine-gun fire. A total of 247 women and 205 children died in the carnage. Only 47-year-old Marguerite Rouffanche survived. She slid out by a rear sacristy window, followed by a young woman and child.[3] All three were shot; Marguerite Rouffanche was wounded and her companions were killed. She crawled to some pea bushes behind the church, where she remained hidden overnight until she was rescued the following morning. Another group of about twenty villagers had fled Oradour-sur-Glane as soon as the soldiers had appeared. That night, the village was partially razed.
A few days later, survivors were allowed to bury the dead. 642 inhabitants of Oradour-sur-Glane had been murdered in a matter of hours. Adolf Diekmann claimed that the episode was a just retaliation for partisan activity in nearby Tulle and the kidnapping of Helmut Kämpfe.
On 12 January 1953, a military tribunal in Bordeaux heard the case against the surviving 65 of the approximately 200 German soldiers who had been involved. Only 21 of them were present, as many were living in East Germany, which would not allow them to be extradited. Seven of them were Germans, but 14 were Alsatians, French nationals of German ethnicity who had been regarded by the Nazis as members of the Reich. All but one of them claimed to have been drafted into the Waffen-SS by force. Such forced conscripts from Alsace and Lorraine called themselves the malgré-nous, meaning "against our will".
The trial caused a huge protest in Alsace, forcing the French authorities to split the tribunal into two separate proceedings, according to the nationality of the defendants.[citation needed] On 11 February, 20 defendants were found guilty. Continuing uproar (including calls for autonomy) in Alsace pressed the French parliament to pass an amnesty law for all the malgré-nous on 19 February, and the convicted Alsatians were released shortly afterwards. This, in turn, caused bitter protests in the Limousin region.
By 1958, all the German defendants had been released as well. General Heinz Lammerding of the Das Reich division, who had given the orders for the measures against the Resistance, died in 1971 after a successful entrepreneurial career. At the time of the trial he lived in Düsseldorf, which was located inside the British occupation zone of West Germany, and the French government never obtained his extradition from the British authorities.[4]
The last trial against a former Waffen-SS member took place in 1983. Shortly before, former SS-Obersturmführer Heinz Barth was tracked down in the German Democratic Republic. Barth participated in the Oradour-sur-Glane massacre as a platoon leader in the "Der Führer" regiment, in charge of 45 soldiers. He was one of several war criminals charged with giving orders to shoot 20 men in a garage. Barth was sentenced to life imprisonment by the First Senate of the City Court of Berlin. He was released from prison in the reunified Germany in 1997, and he died in August 2007.
After the war, General Charles de Gaulle decided the village should never be rebuilt, but would remain a memorial to the cruelty of the Nazi occupation.
Modern days[edit]
The new village of Oradour-sur-Glane (population 2,188 in 2006), northwest of the site of the massacre, was built after the war. The ruins of the original village remain as a memorial to the dead and to represent similar sites and events.
In 1999 French president Jacques Chirac dedicated a memorial museum, the Centre de la mémoire d'Oradour, near the entrance to the Village Martyr ("martyred village"). Its museum includes items recovered from the burned-out buildings: watches stopped at the time their owners were burned alive, glasses melted from the intense heat, and various personal items.
On 6 June 2004, at the commemorative ceremony of the Normandy invasion in Caen, German chancellor Gerhard Schröder pledged that Germany would not forget the Nazi atrocities and specifically mentioned Oradour-sur-Glane.
On 4 September 2013, German president Joachim Gauck and French president François Hollande visited the ghost village of Oradour-sur-Glane. A joint news conference broadcast by the two leaders followed their tour of the site.[5] This was the first time a German president had come to the site of one of the biggest World War II massacres on French soil.[5]
On 8 January 2014, an 88-year-old former member of the 3rd Company of the 1st Battalion of the "Der Fuehrer" SS regiment was charged, by the state court in Cologne, with 25 charges of murder and hundreds of counts of accessory to murder in connection with the massacre in Oradour-sur-Glane.[6] The suspect, who was identified only as Werner C., has until 31 March 2014 to respond to the charges. If the case does go to trial, it will possibly be held in a juvenile court because the suspect was only 19 at the time. According to his attorney, Rainer Pohlen, the suspect acknowledges being at the village but denies being involved in any killings.[7]
Diekmann's conduct[edit]
Upon entering Oradour-sur-Glane, SS-Sturmbannführer Diekmann had received orders from his regimental commander, SS-Standartenführer Stadler, to only have the mayor of the town name thirty people who could serve as hostages in exchange for SS-Sturmbannführer Kämpfe; however, Diekmann instead ordered the population exterminated and the village burned to the ground.
Protests followed from Generalfeldmarschall Erwin Rommel; General Gleiniger, German commander in Limoges; and the Vichy government. SS-Standartenführer Stadler felt Diekmann had far exceeded his orders and began a judicial investigation. Diekmann, 29 years old, was killed in action shortly afterwards during the Battle of Normandy, and a large number of the third company, which had committed the massacre, were themselves killed in action within a few days, and the investigation was suspended.
German attitudes to resistance[edit]
The massacre at Oradour-sur-Glane involved men, women and children, some as young as one week, and some as old as ninety. Oradour-sur-Glane was not the only collective punishment reprisal action committed by the Waffen-SS: other well-documented examples include the French towns of Tulle, Ascq, Maillé, Robert-Espagne, and Clermont-en-Argonne; the Polish villages Michniów, Wanaty and Krasowo-Częstki; the Soviet village of Kortelisy (in what is now Ukraine); the Lithuanian village of Pirčiupiai; the Czechoslovakian villages of Ležáky and Lidice (in what is now the Czech Republic); the Greek towns of Kalavryta and Distomo; the Dutch town of Putten; the Yugoslavian towns of Kragujevac and Kraljevo (in what is now Serbia) and in the village of Dražgoše (in what is now Slovenia). ; the Norwegian village of Telavåg; the Italian villages of Sant'Anna di Stazzema and Marzabotto. On Friday 13 April 1945, in Germany itself, Waffen-SS along with troops from the Luftwaffe and the Hitler-Jugend, placed 1,000-1,100 political prisoners in transit from the Dora-Mittlebau concentration camp into a barn in the town of Gardelegen, set it afire and machine-gunned any who tried to escape. [8] Furthermore, the Waffen SS executed hostages (random or selected in suspect groups) throughout France as a deterrent to resistance.

In popular culture[edit]
The story of Oradour-sur-Glane was featured in 1974 in the noted British documentary television series The World at War, which was narrated by Sir Laurence Olivier. The first and final episodes (1 and 26, entitled "A New Germany" and "Remember" respectively) show helicopter views of the destroyed village, interspersed with pictures of the victims that appear on their graves. Episodes 1 and 26 both started with the words:
Down this road, on a summer day in 1944 . . . The soldiers came. Nobody lives here now. They stayed only a few hours. When they had gone, the community which had lived for a thousand years . . . was dead.
This is Oradour-sur-Glane, in France. The day the soldiers came, the people were gathered together. The men were taken to garages and barns, the women and children were led down this road . . . and they were driven . . . into this church. Here, they heard the firing as their men were shot. Then . . . they were killed too. A few weeks later, many of those who had done the killing were themselves dead, in battle.
They never rebuilt Oradour. Its ruins are a memorial. Its martyrdom stands for thousands upon thousands of other martyrdoms in Poland, in Russia, in Burma, in China, in a World at War . . .
And at the end of episode 26, while another aerial shot of the village ruins plus photos of various massacre victims were being shown to the accompaniment of dramatic and moving music, which is taken from the St Nicholas Mass by Haydn, Olivier said:
At the village of Oradour-sur-Glane, the day the soldiers came, they killed more than six hundred men, women . . . and children. Remember.
This is also referenced in the 2010 series World War II in Color in the episode "OVERLORD", which aired on 7 January 2010.

Working with mothers-to-be and new moms, I field many questions about what foods are best to eat and which are best avoided.
My common response is, "Eat what you like." If you like spicy foods and can tolerate them while pregnant, eat them. Recipe calls for 2 cloves of garlic, but you usually add 4? Go for it.
Lots of nursing mothers wonder about broccoli, cauliflower and those other gassy veggies. Again, if you tolerate them and your baby tolerates them, keep eating them. If you think a food is making your baby fussy and gassy, don't eliminate it right away. To be sure it was that food, try it again, in a smaller amount.
My advice isn't just for moms. It's also good advice for their kids. In utero and while receiving mother's milk, a baby is also experiencing all those wonderful, unique flavors. Studies have shown that babies who are exposed to a variety of flavors are more likely to except these flavors later in life. To put it quite simply, if you want to have children who like a variety of foods, expose them early on. And keep exposing them to nutritious foods as toddlers and adolescents.
We all want to raise a healthier generation of kids — and if we lessen childhood obesity then we lessen the risk of chronic disease. Exposing kids to the flavors of vegetables, fruits and spices early is the first step to getting them to accept and eat more of these foods. This is a big win for parents and kids alike.
To your children's health,
Selecting "Submit" signifies that you have read and agree to our posting guidelines.
Dear Katherine, You meant accept rather than except. Dear Kainda, You meant effect- not affect.
i heard babies that are breast fed actually turn out to be smarter later in life and learn things more quickly.
I agree that challenging children to try new things is important. Studies show that it can take 10+ exposures before they really know if they like or don't like something. The key is don't give up to soon. Make a game of trying new things and challenge yourself to find new ways to serve a dish - you will be amazed with the results. This is just one of the things we do in our Nutrition Unmasked Healthy Family Challenge.

Varaluz Fascination Collection
Breathtaking…that's what came to mind when we saw the ruins of an old Nevada mine at sunset. The walls had been constructed of wine bottles and mud. All those old bottles arranged so perfectly and capturing the sunlight, what better inspiration for a lighting family? We mimicked the bottle ends with recycled steel circles of varying sized filled with recycled glass discs. Rarely before has a design based in "old" seemed so powerfully new.

Forums >Off the Beaten Path>Arrest made
I'm back!
So far it seems CNN is the only one reporting it.
I do hope they have hiim.
MTA: Several now reporting.

Conflicting reports.
Cancer F'in Sucks
Now CNN is reporting there is "conflicting information" as to whether there has been an arrest.
This just in: Dewey defeats Truman.
No arrest according to Boston PD and State PD
CNN is retracting the Arrest report.

#1: Do what I can do. <DOING>
#2: 365 Hours training
CNN has backed off the report

"Stop trying to spoil the mystery of life, I was really getting into it."
Proboscis Colossus
Gives me hope they may be getting close, though.
Going to be really hard to remember "innocent until proven guilty" when they do make an arrest.
Slow down folks, they will find the people responsible in due time. I am sure the FBI does not want to make a mistake such as they did in Atlanta 1996 by acting too fast, but they will get the culprits. We always seem to in these cases in due time. And remember in Atlanta, it took some time before they got Rudolph... It certainly didn't happen in 48 hours.
As far as "not judging", well, with this (bleep) and others like her on TV (And getting high ratings no less), I imagine that millions of folks will be tuned in to hear who she thinks did the deed.
The Plan (big parts)→ /// March: Shamrock Marathon /// April: 24 Hour Run for Cancer /// May: 3 Days at the Fair (12 Hour) /// Nov: New York Marathon ∞
CNN (and others) are left with egg on their face on this one (especially John King).
News media organizations today are in such a rush to be first, they forget it's more important to be right.
The Saudi Marathon Man
Well at least someone here is making relevance to the subject.
Fast is better than long
2013 Goals: 2500 miles / 2:45 marathon? / sub 2 800m / 4:30 mile / sub 16 5K / sub hour 10 miles
Give a man a fire and he'll be warm the rest of the night;Set a man afire and he'll be warm the rest of his life.
What in the Jehu?
We are not are best when we are angered in fear.
Right. The lesson is, when angered (justifiably, of course), we need to be extra cautious.
I think part of the issue could be terminology. If the suspect is being treated as an enemy combatant, the term "arrested" may not be applicable. So, someone may indeed have been apprehended but not arrested, if that makes sense. Seems to me that something like this is going on with the retraction of the news story.

Ancient Egyptians were famous for burying their pharaohs, along with their prized possessions, in sealed rooms of the pyramids. They presumably included items that the Egyptians thought the pharaoh would need in the afterlife. However, unlike today's time capsules, the pharaoh's tombs were not meant to be opened anytime in the future.
In fact, the notion of leaving behind a collection of artifacts, relics, important objects and/or documents in sealed containers to be opened at a specific time in the future did not come about until the 19th century at a time when rulers and wealthy merchants would often place important documents, and other objects of interest in the cornerstones of buildings. The cornerstones would often bear a plaque identifying the location for future generations.
Likewise, when a time capsule is buried, it is just as important to take note, and keep a record of the location for future generations, perhaps even marking the location with a plaque. Many time capsules have been lost because the location was forgotten, there were significant changes in geography, or even some inner-city/urban makeover.
It seems that a belief in the future often produces a fascination with history and one's place in it, and apparently almost everyone wants to be a part of history. Today, there are thousands of time capsules buried by school children and civic leaders every year in the United States, convinced and hopeful that future generations will be interested in what they contain. And, while most people speak of time capsules as relevant only to some future date, the members of the Cedaredge Centennial Time Capsule Committee - Cedaredge town administrator Kathleen Sickles, former mayor Bill Miller, trustee Pat Means, Amy Daniels, Richard Udd and committee chairman Ronn Brewer are all looking to the past, while contemplating the future.
According to Brewer, all items to be encapsulated were collected and prepared with the help of Means, Miller and Daniels. He noted the group did not simply gather up one-of-a-kind knickknacks or trinkets to be placed in the time capsule. "Instead, we collected those things that we felt would be representative of what people might want to know about this time in Cedaredge, and the 100 years prior."
Brewer, with the help of his grandson Haedyn and local contractor Ken Christenson, built the vault that will house the time capsule. Sickles and public works director Tim Roberts designed the plaque to be placed on the vault and local artisan Sherry Henrie will have the plaque etched in stone and finished in time for the dedication ceremony. Brewer said he truly appreciated "... all the people, individuals and contributors, who helped to get the job done." Brewer said he wasn't sure it was going to happen after the Cedaredge Town Council denied funding for the project.
Included in the more than 100 items collected for the time capsule are numerous "before and after" photographs of the Town of Cedaredge at the time of its incorporation in 1907, and of the 100 years following; the original Centennial Proclamation of then mayor Bill Miller, dated March 16, 2007; a centennial banner; an American flag flown over the U.S. Capitol; an arrowhead; a copy of the original incorporation papers dated March 25, 1907; four books - "Surface Creek Country" by a native daughter (Hazel Baker Austin), "Irrigating the Surface Creek Valley" (John Spurgeon), "A History of the Surface Creek Valley and the Town of Cedaredge" (compiled by Ronn Brewer) and "Following the Sand Hill Cranes in Colorado" (Evelyn Horn); a Bible; multiple articles from local newspapers; e-mails, town council agendas/minutes; various committee reports; commemorative coins and stamps; two DVDs; various pamphlets; a list of businesses; and more.
"There's going to be a lot to read," laughed Brewer. "Young people need to read about history." Brewer said he would also encourage young people to learn about their own family history as well. Brewer added, "What I miss, more than anything else, are the orchards."
Brewer praised librarian LaDonna Gunn (Cedaredge Public Library), for her knowledge and expertise in the proper preservation of documents, and for putting it all together for shipment to Future Packaging in California.
Future Packaging built the time capsule, sealed it and sent it back to the town in time for the burial ceremony, scheduled for Saturday, May 23, at the SW Centennial Plaza wall, starting at 10 a.m.
Brewer noted that because their class pictures are enclosed in the capsule, a special invitation to attend the dedication was sent to the students who were in the first, fifth and eighth grade classes of 2007, and Cedaredge High School's graduating class of 2007.
Said Brewer, "It is our hope that in 50 years [the time scheduled for the official reopening of the time capsule] some of the kids from these classes will still be in the area and will remember being a part of the time capsule dedication."

He was a turkey in the old America Sings attraction in Disneyland. Chill Willis provided the voice.
I could very easily be mistaken and this character was only found in DL, however, it never hurts to ask. Someone might know. While preparing for our trip in November my Father in Law would often tease the kids about a character he knew of from a Disney ride named "Saddlesore Swanson". He didnt know for sure what it was from but just knew the character had a raspy voice in a western kind of style.
I know that's a lot of helpful information to get started with However, does anyone know WHERE this character can be found. 2nd, who voiced the character if he was real?
A Turkey?! Wow, what a magical land. Chill Willis? Thank you... Now I can say my Father in Law is a turkey and it can be my little inside joke!

Last season, the Cats were clearly the worst team in the NBA and certainly the least talented team. This year the Cats are no longer the worst team in the NBA but they are still the least talented. However, the roster is not as flawed as one might think. Here are my thoughts if I was the Bobcats GM:
~ Untouchable ~
Kemba Walker - PG - Walker is proving this season that he is an All-Star caliber PG for the Cats. As of this moment he is 15th in the NBA in Scoring - 20th in Assists - 8th in Steals. Among 2nd year players in the NBA he is 1st in Scoring - 1st in Rebouding - 1st in Assists. In my opinion, the Cats got the 2nd Best Player in the 2011 Draft with the #9 Pick. He is a Franchise PG.
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist - SF - Kidd-Gilchrist's game is a work in progress but you have to remember that he is only 19 years old. However, as a rookie and the youngest player in the NBA Kidd-Gilchrist is averaging 11.0 PPG, 6.4 RPG, 1.9 APG, 1.4 BPG, and 0.9 SPG. With his incredible work ethic his body will only grow stronger. His game on the offensive end will only continue to grow. Next year I see his stat line being 16.0 PPG, 9.0 RPG, 4.0 APG, 1.5 BPG, and 1.5 SPG. He is a true stat sheet stuffer and a glue guy for this team in the future.
Bismack Biyombo - C - In the month of December, Biyombo has seen his minutes rise to 30 minutes per game. He is averaging 5.8 PPG, 8.0 RPG, and 1.7 BPG over that stretch. His skill set is still raw but his confidence is growing which is very good to see. His hands are getting much better and with more minutes over the rest of this season his basketball IQ should rise. He is never going to be a scorer but he should be a 12.0+ RPG and 2.5+ BPG game player.
~ Keepers ~
Byron Mullens - PF - Mullens is a RFA next season and his qualifying offer is $3.29 million. Mullens game has certainly evolved in terms of ability to play defense and rebound the basketball. However, his shooting percentage has seen a signicant decline this season. I would be very surprised if any team made an offer of more than $4-5 million per year because he is not an NBA starting PF for any other team. If the Bobcats can sign him to a 4-year deal between $16-$20 million I would do it. If it is any higher, let him walk.
Gerald Henderson - SG - Henderson unfortunately suffered a foot injury that kept him sidelined for a significant period of time. Henderson is also a RFA next season with a qualifying offer of $4.2 million. He has proven that he is a great competitor, very good athlete, solid defender and his offensive game continues to grow. Even though the sample size is limited because of injury he is shooting 52.6% from the 3 and if he continues to work on expanding his range I could see him becoming a solid 3-point shooter. My biggest concern with Gerald is his durability. It will be interesting to see what kind of offers come his way but he is in the most volatile position on the Bobcats roster in my opinion [His future depends on the 2013 Draft].
Jeffrey Taylor - SF - Taylor is a nice player who will never be an NBA starter but should develop into a very solid role player off the bench. He is an excellent on ball defender and should develop into a 3-point specialist on the offensive end. I think he is a nice piece for any NBA bench.
Ramon Sessions - PG - Sessions has proven that he is one of the top backup PG's in the NBA this season. He is scoring 14.6 PPG and playing good defense. He will continue to be a nice piece for the Bobcats next season and hopefully he will want to stay in Charlotte once his contract is up. He and Kemba form a great duo.
~ On the Roster ~
Ben Gordon - SG - Gordon can still shoot the ball but it he doesn't really fit in with the current youth movement the Bobcats are undergoing. He is averaging 20 MPG this season and scoring 12.8 PPG. However, I have the feeling his minutes will only continue to decline late in the season as the Cats continue to attempt to develop their young talent. He has a $13.2 million player option for next season and expect him to opt in unless he wants to take a big pay cut and go play for a contender.
Brendan Haywood - C - Haywood is a good bargin at $2 million per year and gives the Cats a 7-footer who can come in off the bench and grab some rebounds and give 6 fouls. Much like Gordon he doesn't fit in with the Bobcats youth movement so his minutes will likely decline as the season continues.
~ Time for the Amnesty ~
Tyrus Thomas - PF - If the Bobcats are going to make a jump in competitiveness next season they are going to need more salary cap space to pursue Free Agents. It is time to eat the rest of Tyrus Thomas's contract and free up another $8.6 million next year and $9.4 million in 2014.
The 2013 Draft
I believe it is becoming obvious by the Bobcats current 16 game losing streak that they will be competing for the #1 or #2 Overall Pick in the Lottery with the Washington Wizards. If they do end with the #1 or #2 Pick they can't go wrong but it will be interesting to see what the Cats would do if they got the #1 Overall Pick. I have watched a lot of college basketball this season and their are two players that stand above everyone else in-terms of potential on the NBA level.
(1) Shabazz Muhammad - 6'6 225 - SG - Shabazz is starting to get his legs under him on the college level and the results have been something special. He is averaging 18.8 PPG, shooting 49.6% from the field and 47.8% from the 3-point line. At the 2012 Nike Hoop Summit he also measured with a 6'11.25" Wingspan and 8'8" Standing Reach. He has an NBA ready body and a refined offensive game. I hear a lot of comparisons to James Harden but I don't like that comparison. I would compare him to a young Paul Pierce. I see him being a dominant NBA scorer.
(2) Nerlens Noel - 6'11 225 - PF - Nerlens Noel is not Anthony Davis. Davis is a once in a generation player in the mold of Tim Duncan that is mature beyond his years and has incredible fundamentals at a young age. Noel is averaging 10.7 PPG, 9.1 RPG and 3.7 BPG. At the 2012 Nike Hoop Summit he measured in with a 7'4" Wingspan and a 9'1" Standing Reach. I have a great feeling about his potential because of his desire to be great and his intensity and hustle on the floor. I think his floor is Marcus Camby and his ceiling is Kevin Garnett.
If I was the GM and I had the #1 Overall Pick I would draft Shabazz Muhammad. If you add him to this roster and have Kemba starting at PG, Shabazz at SG, and MKG at SF - I think you have a dominant young core at the 1-2-3 positions.
2013 Free Agency
Regardless of WHO the Bobcats draft they still need to add a high volume rebounder and 3-point shooting to the roster. The only difference is if you draft Shabazz Muhammad then you let Gerald Henderson go. Right now I have a list of the Top 8 Potential Free Agent Targets for the Bobcats. The order changes on who you draft
#1 Target - J.J. Hickson
#2 Target - Paul Millsap
#3 Target - Wesley Johnson
#4 Target - Tyler Hansbrough
#5 Target - Anthony Morrow
#6 Target - Brandan Wright
#7 Target - J.J. Reddick
#8 Target - Wayne Ellington
2013 Opening Day Roster
In my ideal world the following would the Cats Opening Day Depth Chart for the 2013 Season would be:
PG1: Kemba Walker
PG2: Ramon Sessions
SG1: Shabazz Muhammad (2013 NBA Draft 1st Round Pick)
SG2: Ben Gordon
SG3: Reggie Bullock (2013 NBA Draft 2nd Round Pick)
SF1: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
SF2: Jeffrey Taylor
PF1: J.J. Hickson (2013 Free Agent Acquisition - Brings high volume rebounder, back to the basket game, ability to play PF or C)
PF2: Tyler Hansbrough (2013 Free Agent Aquisition - Brings attitude, hustle, effort, rebounding, back to the basket game)
C1: Bismack Biyombo
C2: Byron Mullens
C3: Brendan Haywood
