Lincoln Marathon officials will kick their 10,000 registration cap to the curb after the half and full races Sunday.
Next year's event will accommodate an additional 2,000 to 3,000 people. To that end, Lancaster County commissioners last month unanimously approved a $300,000 grant to widen the portion of the route adjacent to Highway 2, which they think will eliminate a bottleneck that crowds runners.
The project will demolish the existing 8-foot wide Boosalis Trail between 27th and 48th Streets and replace it with a 10-foot wide paved path. The standard width of all newly constructed trails in Lincoln is 10 feet.
Race organizers said that particular 1.75-mile portion of the route — which starts just after mile six — is too narrow, forcing them to limit the race to 10,000 runners.
"We pushed for (trail expansion) because last year we sold out in about 16 hours," race co-director Nancy Sutton said. "We decided that in order to accommodate more people, that was the piece that we had to have in place."
The new trail will be able to support up to 15,000 runners, Sutton said, but organizers will allow 12,000 to 13,000 people to register next year. They also plan to increase the number of staggered starts to help alleviate congestion.
"We don't want to just overwhelm everything," she said. "We're being a little more cautious."
Beckie Tuttle of Lincoln is running in the event Sunday for the eighth time. The 41-year-old called the Boosalis Trail "a complete mess" on race day. It's difficult to pass slower runners, which stalls momentum, affects times — and even attitudes, she said.
But Tuttle said it's the marathon's only shortcoming. "I feel bad complaining at all because the race is so wonderful."
Accommodating more people will bring more revenue to the county because more than half the runners travel to participate, said Julie Lattimer, chairwoman of the Lancaster County Visitors Promotion Committee.
Two in three runners live outside Lancaster County, and roughly 1,400 live outside Nebraska.
The Lincoln Track Club estimates that those visitors generate about $32,000 in lodging taxes. Lodging tax money is funding the $300,000 tourism grant.
The grant will not cover the entire $500,000 cost to widen the trail. The Lincoln Track Club and Nebraska Trails Foundation will each contribute $75,000. The City of Lincoln will provide the remaining $50,000.
The project is less expensive long term and safer than moving that portion of the course to Highway 2, which runs parallel to the existing trail, said Greg Topil, Lincoln's senior engineering specialist.
Using Highway 2 would require a barricade, detour route, labor, equipment and additional law enforcement. Two of three barricade companies the city works with said they would not take the job. The other estimated it would cost at least $50,000 for the six-hour period. At that price, it would take 10 years for the cost of barricading Highway 2 to reach the cost of expanding the trail.
Work will begin on the trail shortly after this year's event and be completed by October.
The Sunday races start at 7 a.m. on UNL's city campus and end inside Memorial Stadium. This year will mark Amy Fabricus' sixth time running the half or full marathon. She said the investment in the trail system is worthwhile.
"Every year," she said, "that's been the point where I've had to hop off the sidewalk and run on the grass."
She has seen two people fall doing the same thing. Fabricus said widening the trail will make the race safer, faster and draw more people to the event.
"If running makes people happy," she said, "why not make 5,000 more people happy?"

Can an open safety standard avert 'field bus wars' among safety networks?
At the end of this article you'll be asked to participate in a poll. Why should you care?
Why take a software product developed at substantial cost and give it away? Because it's both the right thing and the smart thing to do.By the time that industry began to move to Ethernet-based industrial networks, the market shares were largely fixed, with a few notable exceptions. First, one of the original industrial Ethernet protocols, Modbus TCP, was folded into the Open DeviceNet Vendors Association where it now coexists with EtherNet/IP developed by Rockwell Automation. Siemens migrated its Profibus to Profinet. SERCOS IGS has also migrated its fiber-optic SERCOS II to Ethernet. Other notable Ethernet based networks with strong followings in the Western marketplace are B&R's POWERLINK and Beckhoff's EtherCAT.
It's too late for one Ethernet – but not for one Safety
It's too late for one industrial Ethernet that has the determinism to support logic and motion. That boat has sailed and we've all learned to live with 'flavors.' The standard Ethernet TCP/IP and UDP protocols are fine for non-time sensitive communications, but not for networks that must be updated in the millisecond to hundreds of microseconds range.
So, in the first public venue in North America, B&R did the right thing. They're offering the marketplace a choice that it's never had – by sharing their intellectual property for use on competitive networks. And they've already proved it works.
Why, then, would any OEM or packager want to learn a different safety protocol for every network they already support? It wouldn't make any sense, especially at such an early stage in market adoption for safety networking, and especially since this standardization doesn't make them change their installed base. This also makes it somewhat easier to adopt a different industrial network in the future -- at least it wouldn't mean adopting a new safety protocol.
Safety is one of the biggest areas of upcoming industrial network investment, so this is a place where standards matter most right now. Safety networks and processors are replacing hard wired safety connections – just as field buses did for control systems -- providing greater diagnostic capabilities at reduced installed cost.
Of course, B&R management recognizes the opportunity this presents to increase its stature in the industrial automation market worldwide – because the open safety protocol applies not just to North America, but to Europe and the growth markets of Asia and India, and the emerging markets of Latin America and Africa. For multinationals dealing with different regional standards, this is a very big deal.
And the open safety protocol isn't just for Ethernet based networks, it can be implemented on the application layer of legacy networks, such as DeviceNet.
If you want open safety networks, speak up today
In technology adoption, there is always a limited window of opportunity to create standards – specifically, that's before commercial interests override the common good.
In reaction to openSAFETY, is it possible that other safety protocols will suddenly be open sourced, confusing the marketplace and slowing adoption? Absolutely.
Or that, if users do nothing, the status quo will prevail and the opportunity be missed? Again, absolutely. Inaction allows the status quo to prevail.
So, let's start by taking a poll. Click here to vote yes for standardizing on openSAFETY. Click here to vote no. Voting requires registration on packworld.com to prevent multiple balloting. Your information will not be disclosed unless you indicate that you want to demonstrate your public support for standardization.
What's next? If you are really serious about taking control over the destiny of your safety functions, contact the Ethernet POWERLINK Standardization Group and let them know you will support them as they lobby for standardization.

Sydney Airport is Australia's largest and busiest airport, functioning as a major gateway for the Australian economy. In 2011-12, it catered for 36 million passenger movements, over 290,000 aircraft movements and 395,000 tonnes of international airfreight (BITRE 2011). Sydney Airport is particularly critical to the facilitation of international travel, with around 40% of international travellers arriving at or departing from Sydney Airport.
Between now and 2030, passenger numbers at Sydney Airport are forecast to double, necessitating a range of developments and investments at, and proximate to, the airport. This includes additional investment in passenger facilitation services and in ancillary transport infrastructure.
However, this investment is not being driven solely by the volume of growth; it is also being influenced by the changing composition of travellers, changing traveller preferences and the demands of a growing on-airport aviation community. As well as investments in aviation infrastructure, the commercial development planned over the next two decades is likely to take a variety of forms, from hotel accommodation, to office space, hospitality and retail.
The report analyses the airport's economic value to the Australian economy and models how this value is likely to grow over time, given projected growth in air traffic and expected on-airport development.

Stage Door: Options Abound
I'm not making up a story when I suggest you could be charmed by Mary Zimmerman's Arabian Nights at Northern Kentucky University. After all, her play is about telling tales: Scheherazade, the latest bride of a cruel king who has a history of marrying and executing his wives, survives by stringing him along with stories she promises to finish the next night — for a "Thousand and One Nights." (Read my profile of Mary Zimmerman here.) She plies him with tales of Sinbad and Ali Baba. Audiences at NKU will likely be strung along, too. Senior Cynthea Mercado plays Scheherazade, whose life, she says, "is threatened with the reality of her situation, and yet she is still able to enjoy her own tales and sometimes get lost in them." No need to get lost. Find your way to Highland Heights and NKU's Corbett Theatre for this production, through March 2. Tickets: 859-572-5464. If a classic musical is to your taste, you might try Andrew Lloyd Webber's epic musical Evita, in a touring production at the Aronoff Center through March 2. I caught a performance last evening, and it looks great — some epic scenery and excellent choreography. Josh Young as Che is charismatic and strong-voiced in his role as the show's commentator. Unfortunately, Caroline Bowman's Eva Perón gets too shrill way too fast and becomes a grasping harpy before there's a chance to be won over by her Machiavellian charms. As Juan Peron, Sean MacLaughlin looks young and slimy, without the sinister gravitas that the historical figure possessed. That doesn't leave much opportunity to convey the complex chemistry — passion and manipulation — that bonded them as a political machine. But the tale of the ambitious young woman who rose to the highest levels of power in Argentina then crashed and burned is a memorable modern tragedy, and the show's rock-opera tunes by Andrew Lloyd Webber will stick in your head. Tickets: 513-621-ARTS. Cincinnati Shakespeare is keeping the cast of its recent production of Shakespeare's Hamlet intact with its current production of Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. This time around, it's the story of Hamlet's college buddies Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who move from Shakespeare's sidelines to Stoppard's center stage. In this classic 1967 script, the pawns become the central characters, while Prince Hamlet, Queen Gertrude, King Claudius, Ophelia and others wander by. The classic tragedy is turned on its head, and it becomes an existential tragedy for two guys who everyone has a hard time telling apart. Through March 9. Tickets: 513-381-2273. The Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park's production of Amy Herzog's Pulitzer Prize finalist script, 4000 Miles, is onstage at the Shelterhouse Theatre. It's about a 91-year-old grandmother and her 21-year-old grandson bridging a giant generation gap and finding that they actually have a lot in common. Through March 9. Tickets: 513-421-3888. It's the final weekend for several shows that have been pleasing audiences. Nina Raine's Tribes at Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati was originally scheduled to close last Sunday, but to meet ticket demand for the show about coping with deafness — and contentious families — ETC added performances through Saturday. (CityBeat review here.) Tickets: 513-421-3555. … A block away at Know Theatre, the off-kilter script by Steve Yockey, Pluto, winds up on Saturday, too. It's about dealing with tragedy and grief, told in an inventive, sometimes even humorous, manner. Two of Cincinnati's finest actors — Annie Fitzpatrick and Tori Wiggins — are in this one, making it very watchable. (CityBeat review here.) Tickets: 513-300-5669 … For the younger set, this weekend offers the final public performance, Saturday at 2 p.m., of Children's Theatre's Pinkalicious at the Taft. It's the story of a girl who can's stop eating pink cupcakes. Tickets: 800-745-3000. And here's a tip for Monday evening: Dayton native Daniel Beaty, who pleased a lot of Playhouse patrons last season with his tour-de-force one-man show, Through the Night, will be in town for a one-night performance to promote his new book, Transforming Pain to Power. His performance (6:30 p.m. in the Marx Theatre) and the book signing afterward in the Rosenthal Plaza) are free, but you need to make a reservation with the Playhouse box office: 513-421-3888.

Stage Door: Full Weekend
Lots of plays not previously seen in Cincinnati are good theater choices this weekend:Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati just opened its regional premiere of Tribes by Nina Raines on Wednesday, and I've given it a Critic's Pick. The story circles around two young adults from families with very different approaches to deafness. Billy's family has tried to give him a "normal" life by teaching him to speak and lip read, while Sylvia's deaf parents have always communicated using sign language. Now that she's going deaf, she's more and more dependent on that skill. But Billy's loud, boisterous family objects to him to make his deafness so obvious, even though he's finally found a path to overcome his loneliness. This tale of warring tribes is as much about family dynamics and human nature as it is about coming to terms with a disability. Provocative and thoughtful, with a sterling cast of convincing actors. Through Feb. 16. Tickets: 513-421-3555. The Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park has a winner with its production of Bruce Norris's Clybourne Park, a show that portrays territoriality rooted in insensitivity and prejudice. (CityBeat review here.) Using a 1959 play, Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun*, as its jumping-off point, Norris's first act portrays a white Chicago neighborhood where the sale of a home to an African-American family has set off warfare between residents. In the second act, it's 2009 and the same neighborhood, blighted by deterioration, is now being gentrified. The tables are turned, but many of the arguments — and in Norris's clever script, even some of the same words — resurface. I gave this one a Critic's Pick, too. Through Feb. 16. Tickets: 513-421-3888. *A footnote to Clybourne Park: To experience this show's inspiration, A Raisin in the Sun, tune to WVXU (FM 91.7) on Saturday evening, 8-10 p.m., for a radio production of Lorraine Hansberry's play by LA Theatre Works. It's a seminal American drama in its own right. This bounty of premieres is joined by Know Theater's staging of Steve Yockey's brand-new play, Pluto. (CityBeat review here.) It's the story of a single mom and her sullen, disconnected son in a generic suburb. It feels realistic, but there are signs that it goes beyond that: A blossoming cherry tree has crashed through the ceiling, and a three-headed dog (played by a one-headed actress) sits nearby, offering curious observations about what's going on. A radio spits out news about a school shooting, sometimes speaking directly to the mom, and then the refrigerator begins to shake violently, as if some force is trying to escape. There's more to be revealed, and I should warn that gun violence and death are portrayed. But this is a poetic and emotional tale of grief distilled. Through Feb. 22. Tickets: 513-300-5669. Daniel Beaty's one-man show, Through the Night, was well-received at the Cincinnati Playhouse in a Fall 2012 production, performed by the playwright. (CityBeat previewed that piece here.) Northern Kentucky University this weekend is offering another of Beaty's solo works, the multi-character show (27 roles in all) Emergency, a piece that features slam poetry, performed by local actor Deondra Means. It begins with a fanciful premise, a slave ship arriving in a New York City harbor in the 21st century. Director Daryl Harris calls Emergency "a perfect storm for the social activist and the theater artist in me." It's onstage only this weekend at NKU's Stauss Theatre. Tickets: 859-572-5464.

Stage Door: Holiday Cheer
It's Friday the 13th, but if you're in the mood for holiday shows, this is your lucky weekend. Just about every theater in town has something onstage aimed at getting you into the Christmas spirit, making you laugh, diverting you from the stress of being cheerful or just poking fun at the ways of the world (at least the world of commercialism we see in America today).Perhaps you've already done your annual brush-up on Dickens' A Christmas Carol at the Playhouse (another fine production, now in its 23rd season with Bruce Cromer back as Scrooge and a new interpretation of Bob Cratchit, featuring the very angular Ryan Wesley Gilreath, who seems to be all arms and legs and stringy hair — very Dickensian) or the musical version being presented by Covedale Center. With the story of Scrooge's dark night of the soul fresh in mind, perhaps you're ready for A Klingon Christmas Carol, presented by Hugo West Theatricals at the Art Academy of Cincinnati (1212 Jackson St., Over-the-Rhine). This is a newish theater group that knows its way around satirical work (their Don't Cross the Streams, a goofy derivative of Ghostbusters, was a popular piece in the 2012 Fringe festival), they are giving this unusual piece its local premiere. (It's been staged in Chicago and Minneapolis.) It's actually a rather faithful retelling of the story with SQuja' (Donald Volpenheim), a cowardly, money-grubbing member of Star Trek's warrior race, taking the place of Scrooge. It's presented by a deadpan Vulcan narrator (Lauren Carr) who positions the work as the "original" of the tale. Klingons don't celebrate Christmas, but they are bound by traditions, the greatest of them being the "Feast of the Long Night." The 70-minute piece closely matches with Scrooge's story, but it's all through a Klingon filter — lots of angry outbursts and hearty laughter, grunting, growling, drinking and chest-thumping by characters with wrinkled foreheads, bushy eyebrows and fierce demeanors. Eileen Earnest handles timHom (a Muppet-like equivalent for Tiny Tim), son of Quachit (David Dreith), whose training as a warrior is being neglected because of greedy SQuja'. If you've never yearned for a visit to Qo'noS, the Klingon homeworld, you might find this production a bit impenetrable since it's performed in the guttural Klingon language, but there are projected subtitles that add humor to the action. This won't be a show for everyone, but if you're a Star Trek fan, you'll have a good time. Tickets ($20 at the door or here). Elsewhere in OTR, there's no need for subtitles for New Edgecliff Theatre's The 12 Dates of Christmas, presented this year at Know Theatre (1120 Jackson St.). It's a remount of NET's 2012 holiday, again featuring Annie Kalahurka as Mary, a New York actress whose chipper view of the holidays is trashed when she sees her fiancé kissing another woman on national TV at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The one-woman show recounts her trajectory through a year of dating a dozen men, a few with potential, others with "what were you thinking?" qualities. Kalahurka does it all, from her central character, her oppressive matchmaking aunt, her nervously worried mother and a parade of bad choices marked by ornaments she hangs on a tree — an old friend, a doctor, a bartender, guys met at weddings, a musician and more. Along the way, she's in a production of Macbeth and A Christmas Carol (she plays Christmas Past) adding more humor with references to theater and such. This is a contemporary show with language to match (so it's not for the kids), but Kalahurka is a charming performer who makes this one totally worth seeing. Tickets: 513-621-2787. On Sunday evening, Cincinnati Shakespeare Company kicks off two weeks of Every Christmas Carol Ever Told (and then some) for the eighth consecutive year. As the title implies, it's a mash-up of everything from A Christmas Carol to the Grinch, with stops for Charlie Brown, It's a Wonderful Life, Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph, the Nutcracker and more. It's been a great evening of adult entertainment in past incarnations: This year returns last year's cast intact — Miranda McGee, Sara Clark, Justin McComb and Billy Chace. They're individually funny, and together they can be downright hilarious. Even if you've seen this one before, it's worth a return trip. Tickets: 513-381-2273, x1. For those who want to take the kids to a show, you can't go wrong with Around the World in 80 Days at Ensemble Theatre through Jan. 4 (513-421-3555) or the Children's Theatre of Cincinnati's production of The Day Before Christmas with performances today and Saturday at the Taft Theatre (800-745-3000).

Stage Door: 'Cabaret' and Halloween Fare
The Cincinnati Playhouse's production of Cabaret is a must-see for anyone who is a fan of musicals. (CityBeat review here.) Kander and Ebb's Tony Award winner from the late '60s has been brought to the main stage with inventive verve by veteran Broadway choreographer and director Marsha Milgrom Dodge. Sure, it's set in 1929 Berlin, populated by amoral entertainers and Nazis rising to power. But its scrutiny of prejudice and bigotry in the context of jaunty, thoughtless entertainment is a fascinating way to bring attention to topics that are timeless. Dodge has assembled a cast of triple-threats (who can sing, act and dance), given them choreography rooted in the 1920s, costumed them in period clothing (and some clever get-ups for the cabaret routines) and set them spinning on a stage arrayed with Expressionist imagery. It's a winning combination. Cabaret just opened on Thursday evening; you have until Nov. 16 to catch it, but it's likely to be a hot ticket, so this is a good weekend to head to Mount Adams. The other choice at the Playhouse, Seven Spots on the Sun, is in its final weekend on the Shelterhouse stage. It's a powerful drama set in a Latin American nation, torn asunder by civil war. Serious theatergoers have been giving this one a thumbs-up. Tickets: 513-421-3888. Cincinnati Shakespeare hasn't gotten around to any Shakespeare plays yet this season, but no one's complaining. Last weekend they opened a moving production of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, featuring top-notch performances by Jeremy Dubin and Jim Hopkins as a pair of Depression Era migrant works who have to stay one step ahead of trouble because man-child Lennie (Hopkins) doesn't know his own strength and has emotions that are seldom reined in. Great acting, worth seeing. (CityBeat review here.) Through Nov. 10. Tickets: 513-381-2273, x1. Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati finishes its run of Gina Gionfriddo's Rapture, Blister, Burn this weekend, hot from Broadway in its regional premiere. (CityBeat review here.) A story about modern women and what satisfies — and dissatisfies — them. Three generations end up debating choices made: It's both entertaining and thought-provoking, a showcase of excellent local actors. Through Sunday. Tickets: 513-421-3555. As Halloween draws closer, you might want to check out a show or two inspired by the "season." Dracula at the Covedale Center for the Performing Arts (tickets: 513-241-6550) tells the familiar tale of the legendary vampire. (CityBeat review here.) Slasher at Falcon Theatre (Monmouth Theatre in Newport; tickets 513-479-6783) is a tongue-in-cheek piece that originated a few years back at the Humana Festival in Louisvile. It's about people making a horror flick and how it affects their lives. Lots of humor, but some thoughtful moments, too.

My best recommendation for this weekend is Ensemble Theatre's staging of Gina Gionfriddo's Rapture, Blister, Burn. This is an ultra-natural piece of writing with several generations of women arguing and contesting over the ways women should behave. (CityBeat review here.) It's focused on two women, once friends, one married to the other's ex college boyfriend. It's years later and neither woman is very happy with her present life. How that plays out will keep you engaged from start to finish. Some exceptional acting, with strong direction by D. Lynn Meyers. Tickets: 513-421-3555. The Playhouse's world premiere of Martín Zimmerman's Seven Spots on the Sun is a powerful drama that engages all your senses as well as your imagination. The products of a devastating civil war in Central America are played out in painfully personal ways. Potent script, strong performances make this a show worth seeing. (CityBeat review here.) This weekend at the Playhouse also offers a series of previews (hence, more affordable tickets) of Kander and Ebb's Cabaret, a show that's been around for a long time — but still has a saucy kick that makes it feel very in the moment. Playhouse box office: 513-421-3888. Need to starting getting into a Halloween state of mind? Covedale Center opened a production of Dracula on Thursday (it's onstage through Nov. 10) for you to sink your teeth into. Or vice versa. Tickets: 513-241-6550. Cincinnati Shakespeare kicks off its production of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men this evening. It's a tale of friendship in the midst of the Great Depression, two men who are migrant workers, often staying one step beyond serious trouble caused by oafish Lennie. Cincy Shakes' regular Jim Hopkins plays the simple-minded giant who's protected by the pragmatic George, brought to life by veteran Jeremy Dubin. It's a thoughtful, sad story. Opens Friday evening, continues through Nov. 10. Tickets: 513-381-2273, x1. Speaking of Cincinnati Shakespeare, the company is involved in bringing National Theatre Live broadcasts from London to Cincinnati. If these screenings generate any profits, Cincy Shakes will get some financial benefit. So assemble a group and head to Springdale 18's Cinema de Luxe on Sunday evening at 7 p.m. You'll see a powerful performance of Othello featuring Adrian Lester (an Olivier Award winner) as the title character and Rory Kinnear (featured in a couple of recent James Bond films) as the manipulative Iago. Here's a link to buy tickets, $19 in general, $15 for seniors and students. Take a kid to see a show and you're likely to create a lifetime theater lover. That's what happened to me when my grandfather took me to see the musical Brigadoon. So you can give this theory a try this weekend as the Children's Theatre of Cincinnati opens its 89th mainstage season with Annie JR. at the Taft Theatre. It's a shortened version of the Broadway hit about a spunky orphan who charms everyone (and which happens to be back on Broadway this fall in a full-length production). Public performances today, tomorrow and Sunday. Tickets: 800-745-3000.

Lots of choices to fulfill your appetite for good theater this weekend. Best bet is to catch one of the final performances of Other Desert Cities at Ensemble Theatre (Sunday at 2 p.m. is your last chance), the story of parents and children who just can't get along. (CityBeat review here.) Heavy doses of guilt, sarcasm and politics fuel a lot of family angst, and some unexpected twists and turns keep things interesting as a daughter who's a writer blames her parents for her activist brother's suicide — in a very public way. The show features a solid cast of local favorites. It's definitely worth seeing if you can get a ticket. 513-421-3555. A wholly different kind of show is Fly at the Cincinnati Playhouse, an imaginative recreation of the lives of four men recruited among hundreds of African Americans during World War II to fulfill piloting roles in bombing missions over Europe. (CityBeat review here.) The Tuskegee Airmen were the leading edge of the Civil Rights movement, men who had to overcome prejudice to prove their worth. The production is made visually and sonically engaging with videos that recreate flight and a soulful tap dancer who brings emotion — joy, sorrow, grief and anger — to various scenes. It's a very imaginative show. Through Oct. 5. Tickets: 513-421-3888. On Wednesday evening, I caught the opening night of New Edgecliff Theatre's staging of William Inge's 1955 comedy-drama, Bus Stop. It's about a collection of lost souls who end up trapped in a Kansas diner during an overnight snowstorm. They're largely caricatures, but Inge was a master of naturalistic dialogue, and in the hands of some fine local performers directed by Jared Doren the show takes on a pleasant, believable life. Some good things happen, some sad stories are told, and some lessons learned. At the Aronoff Center's Fifth Third Bank Theater, through Sept. 28. Tickets: 513-621-2787. And for something completely different, you might want to check out a production by community theater group Showbiz Players of Carrie: The Musical, Stephen King's creepy novel about a bullied adolescent girl who unleashes telekinetic vengeance on her persecutors. The show originated on Broadway in 1988 and was long considered one of the worst ever, but it was reborn in 2012, and became a hit. Decide for yourself by seeing it at the Carnegie in Covington. Through Sept. 29. Tickets: 859-957-1940.

Stage Door: Back in Business
Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati is typically the first professional theater in town to start the season, and that's the case for 2013 with Other Desert Cities that opened a week ago. You can read my review; I really appreciated the powerhouse cast performing the show. That led me to give Jon Robin Baitz's provocative family drama about strife between generations a "Critic's Pick." (It's onstage through Sept. 22.) A tip option for seats is an added 7 p.m. performance on that final Sunday. If you enjoy ETC's productions of fresh new plays, you owe a debt of gratitude to its founding supporters. Longtime friends Ruth Sawyer and Murph Mahler got the ball rolling back in 1987 and faithfully guided the company for two decades, sustaining the company financially, artistically and spiritually. Mahler passed away in 2009 and Sawyer earlier this year, so ETC is commemorating their dedication with a special free event this Sunday evening at 7 p.m. The program will offer songs and stories performed by some of ETC's best artists. Seating is limited, so you need to RSVP: 513-421-3555.I attended the opening of the Cincinnati Playhouse's 2013-2014 season last evening. Fly is a heart-grabbing piece of history, the story of four Tuskegee Airmen, some of those bold African Americans who overcame prejudice in the 1940s by joining the Army Air Corps and serving America valiantly during World War II. The show is imaginatively presented, using a modern tap dancer to punctuate the storytelling. There's plenty of excitement, conveyed with video and sound — but mostly with some excellent acting. The full-house audience, which included four veterans of the training program, responded warmly. Through Oct. 5. Tickets: 513-421-3888. Cincinnati Shakespeare's Oliver Twist is a stage adaptation of Charles Dickens' dark 1838 novel about crime and child abuse in Victorian London (CityBeat review here). It's a grim drama, definitely not the chipper rendition you might recall if you've seen the musical Oliver! Cincy Shakes' acting company rises to the task, but I suspect you'll leave the theater glad you weren't a child — or an adult — in that era. Through Sept. 29. 513-381-2273. A few years back a play was commissioned about Cincinnati as A City of Immigrants. It's a fine piece of theater about the place we call home and how it's rooted in people who came here from elsewhere. It gets presented periodically, including tonight (Friday) at 6 p.m. at the Freedom Center, 30 East Freedom Way on the Banks. (Doors open at 5:30.) There's no charge for admission; it's definitely worth seeing. The event is to mark the kickoff of the local celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.

Stage Door: Near Season's End
Cincinnati Shakespeare Company finishes its run of Measure for Measure this weekend (CityBeat review here). It's a dark tale of hypocrisy and manipulation, with a few glimmers of ribald humor. Director Brian Phillips has transported the story from Renaissance-Era Vienna to the United States of the 1920s when Prohibition made everyday occurrences of fast living and bad behavior. (Can you say Boardwalk Empire?) In 20 seasons, CSC has only staged it once before, but this is a production worth seeing because of the strong acting company — especially Brent Vimtrup, Kelly Mengelkoch and Nick Rose. Billy Chace does a nice job with the comic bits, too, even though they feel weird in this difficult story of self-righteousness and double-dealing. Tickets: 513-381-2273, x1.For those into crooning, sentimental nostalgia, you'll find an ample supply aboard the Showboat Majestic's production of Forever Plaid. Jinx, Sparky Francis and Smudge conjure up a lot of good clean fun and close harmonies for their final concert. And I do mean final — in fact, they're kind of after the fact: Coming back from the great beyond for one last gig after a tragic bus accident on their way to a career-making gig. There's a lot of tomfoolery that makes this show amusing and entertaining. Through June 2. Tickets: 513-241-6550. If you prefer the girls to the boys, Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati is into the extended run of The Mavelous Wonderettes: Caps and Gowns. The spunky gals — who also traffic in tunes from the '50s and '60s — provide two more rounds of melodies and moodiness. "Caps" is a reconstruction of their graduation night in 1958, while "Gowns" is a decade later at the wedding reception of Missy, who always has a plan, and Mr. Lee, a teacher she idolized. We get to see what life has brought to her three friends, love-'em-and-leave-'em Cindy Lou, jealous Betty Jean and vapid Suzy. ETC's casting gets an A+. Through June 1. Tickets: 513-421-3555. For our early summer enjoyment, the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park has put together the charming and family-friendly Shipwrecked! An Entertainment: The Amazing Adventures of Louis de Rougemont (As Told by Himself). I attended the opening on Thursday evening and witnessed three actors who play a host of characters, change costumes in plain view, create wildly imaginative scenery and make their own sound effects. It's a wistful story of adventure that revels in the adventure of storytelling. It's onstage through June 16. Tickets: 513-421-3888.

As the 2012-2013 theater season winds down, there are still several good productions worth seeing: You can still be entertained by the froth of The Marvelous Wonderettes: Caps and Gowns at Ensemble Theatre (which runs through June 1), intrigued by the dark comedy Measure for Measure at Cincinnati Shakespeare Company (through May 26; CityBeat review here) or titillated by the noir tale of lust and murder, Double Indemnity, at the Cincinnati Playhouse (wrapping up on Saturday; CityBeat review here).But if you're looking for other options, you'll find them. Slightly more off the beaten path is Sunset Boulevard, the Andrew Lloyd Webber about a faded silent film star living in her grandiose memory of her glory days rather than in the cynical present of the 1940s. Cincinnati Music Theatre has assembled a fine production of the show at the Aronoff Center's Jarson-Kaplan Theater, onstage through Saturday evening. This is a big show in terms of cast, choreography, scenery and more, but CMT, a community theater, has the personnel to pull it off. Tickets: 513-621-2787. Another tale of a film legend contemplating a return to the screen — but on a decidedly smaller scale — is offered in Krisit, a new play by local playwright Y York. Veteran actress Dale Hodges plays the title character in a show characterized by director Mark Lutwak as a funny play about a serious subject. York and Hodges have a history that goes back to New York City many years ago. It's onstage (through June 2) at Clifton Performance Theatre (the space once occupied by Sitwell's Coffee House, 404 Ludlow Ave.). Tickets: 513-861-7469. Speaking of legends, at the Aronoff tonight (Friday) you'll find Hal Holbrook in Mark Twain Tonight! He's been presenting the humor, satirical wit and timeless observations of one of America's most iconic literary figures for more than a half-century. Holbrook is now 88, more than a decade older than Twain when he passed away in 1910. But he keeps his performances fresh and timely with constant edits and changes about politics, culture and the world, carefully attuned to the moment. (He has more than 16 hours of Twain material in his repertoire!) His performance is in the Procter & Gamble Hall at the Aronoff Center. Tickets: 513-621-2787. If you've already enjoyed the Wonderettes at ETC, you might want to attend Forever Plaid, which just opened the 2013 summer season on board the Showboat Majestic. It's a similar story, a quartet of singers aspiring for their big musical break. They get it, but at a high (and highly comic) price. Lots of great tunes from the '50s, surrounded by nostalgic humor. It's onstage through June 2. Tickets: 513-241-6550. Finally, if you're a regular theatergoer in Cincinnati, you might want to attend the League of Cincinnati's awards program on Monday evening, 7 p.m. at Know Theatre. Details here.

Florida can clinch SEC Eastern Division, first-round bye by beating Georgia
by Jason LieserA loss to Georgia on Thursday would not be devastating for Florida, but a win would put the Gators in prime position to win the conference.
For starters, though, a win will guarantee Florida the top spot in the division and a first-round bye in the upcoming SEC tournament.
Here is a look at the current Eastern Division standings:
Team | Rec. | |
1 | Florida | 10-2 |
2 | Vanderbilt | 8-5 |
4 | Georgia | 7-5 |
3 | Kentucky | 7-6 |
5 | Tennessee | 7-6 |
6 | S. Carolina | 5-8 |
If Florida beats Georgia, the worst the Gators can finish is 11-5. Vanderbilt is the only other team that can get to 11-5. Kentucky can do no better than 10-6 (same for Georgia under this scenario). Florida would have the tie-breaker advantage over Vanderbilt due to division record. The Gators would be 7-3; Vanderbilt would be 6-4.
Also, if Florida beats Georgia, the SEC regular season title would come down to the Gators, Vanderbilt and Alabama. Here are the current standings for those three:
Team | Rec. | |
1 | Alabama | 11-2 |
2 | Florida | 10-2 |
3 | Vanderbilt | 8-5 |
The Gators remaining games are Thursday vs. Georgia, Saturday at Kentucky, Tuesday vs. Alabama and March 5 at Vanderbilt.
All of those scenarios, obviously, hinge on Florida beating Georgia. The Gators needed double overtime to beat the Bulldogs in Athens last month. Florida F Chandler Parsons, who sparked that victory with a late scoring burst, is hindered by a thigh bruise. Coach Billy Donovan said today Parsons likely will play, but won't start.
If Florida loses and slips into an 0-4 tailspin to end the season, it risks dropping below second place in the division and then would have to place an extra game in the SEC tournament.
The SEC tournament begins March 10 in Atlanta.

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - A $10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the whereabouts and the return of a toddler who has been missing since before Thanksgiving.
Columbia Police Chief Randy Scott said the case has been weighing on the hearts and mind of Columbia police investigators for weeks.
"There is still great concern for the child's safety and well-being," said Scott. "We continue to ask the public across three states to assist us in finding Amir Jennings."
Family members last saw the 18-month-old boy with his mother Zinah Demaris Jennings during the Thanksgiving holiday.
A warrant was issued for Jennings on December 29 by the Columbia Police Department and on the same day, Jennings was arrested and charged with Unlawful Conduct Towards a Child.
Police said Jennings providing false and inconsistent information to investigators on Amir's whereabouts. She was booked at the Alvin S. Glenn Detention Center.
Since the charge, CPD with the assistance of local, state and federal agencies executed search warrants regarding this investigation in Columbia and near Atlanta, Georgia.
Evidence has been taken from different locations and is in the process of being tested at the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division's Forensic Services Laboratory.
The reward is being offered by the Columbia Police Department and Crimestoppers.
Chief Scott encourages citizens with information about Ms. Jennings or her son Amir, including if they saw the mother and child together at any time, to call, text or submit online, their anonymous tip to Crimestoppers in the following ways:
CALL toll-free, 1-888-CRIME-SC.
TEXT to CRIMES (274637), and mark the beginning of the message with "TIPSC," followed by the tip information.

24 Hours? Really?
Maybe it's just I have always been bad at time management. In college I never finished a paper less than 12 hours before it was due. I never made curfew in high school. Now, I work at a job where everything is minute to minute, which is good since that's as far as I can think. Really though, I think it's just that once kids become mobile, free time becomes extinct.
I used to be able to put Meg in her bouncy chair and clean, or blog, or work out. Okay, I would clean or blog. Now though, she is always moving. I am always following her. Sometimes I put her in her play yard, but her screams, coupled with my bad mom thoughts, make me get her out; and then I am on the job making sure she doesn't kill herself once again.
Of course, I could blog when Meg falls asleep. Really though, during the day I either want to get stuff done, or nap, and at night I just want my brain to turn off. I know I should read, or blog, or read blogs, but most of the time the warm, glowing, warming glow of the TV wins out. I know, I'm weak.
Oh, how I wish I eventually discover the secret of other Mommy Bloggers. I have so snarkiness to spread to the world.
I just hope the secret isn't meth.

Eventually, E settled a little bit in her mobility since moving independently became a litte more familiar and she would independtly sit down to play for a few minutes here or there. Now, she might string together 10-20 minutes coloring or doing artwork next to me while I'm on the computer. Or, I blog when I'm on my lunchhour and need a break from schoolwork.

Oops. The secret is meth. Well, now that you know that, you can join the bandwagon.
By the by, it does get easier. There are teeny little bits of time here and there where the offspring are busy tearing apart a different room in the house, and I sneak off to surf the worldwideweb.
But I'm with you, I don't know how some of the Big Deal mommy bloggers with the fabulous photography and design skills do it. - November 17, 2010 at 7:31 AM

Okay, so I am not the only one wondering how some people seem to be able to do it all. Home cooked meals from scratch, laundry washed and folded, Christmas cards already done, etc, ect.
Right now my bedroom looks like a teenager moved in. You can't even see the floor. The laundry situation has taken over the house. I still haven't written thank you notes from my baby shower. And everynight Adam and I eat whatever random thing will take the least amount of effort to heat up. I have to get my act together.
Well, maybe tomorrow....I'm going to go take a nap. - November 17, 2010 at 10:47 AM

yes - you guessed it - the secret is meth. I completely agree that Mr. TV is comforting and gives you the nice fuzzy brain. Blogging make you think, thinking is bad m'kay?
Confession time, I am glad you are not posting as many pictures of the cuteness that is Meg, because i have an issue. I want to chew on her chubby thighs! The baby pictures were killing me, why do babies look so delicious? I am sorry for coveting her juicy baby fat rolls. If I ever fly through your state I promise to warn you so you can hide Meg. I am bad, but its not the meth this time. - November 17, 2010 at 11:11 AM

Meth takes too much of a toll on your looks, I prefer speed.
I once sat a child in front of a Thomas The Tank Engine train table while he was imprisoned in an exersaucer for close to three hours while I made a writing deadline. Add the fact that I had an Elmo video on an endless loop running on the other side of that and i think I just won some kind of prize. - November 17, 2010 at 11:33 AM

There are days I'm so overwhelmed that I want to die, cry, or punch someone. Blogging is the easiest thing I have to do with the kids underneath me. I think you just become accustomed to being spread thin. It's one of the reasons my posts have so many errors. When I come across the mistakes, I say, Dammit Fat Sucker.
Maybe I should try meth. - November 17, 2010 at 12:05 PM

Meth? Liars? Nannies? Hmmm...I don't know Libby, you bring up a valid point here. I blog at work, if I tried at home, it would never happen.
A certain short, poofy haired girl would be asking me every five seconds what I was doing? Could she please play her game now? Could I get her a fruit snack? A drink? Wipe her butt? Or she would color her hands a different color with another permanet marker. - November 17, 2010 at 12:53 PM
- for a different kind of girl said...
I think the secret is actually coffee and/or cupcakes, because sometimes it seems that's all the world is talking about out there. Perhaps because it's coffee and/or cupcakes laced with meth. If such is the case, I'm totally mommy blogging the wrong way.

No. I'm sorry to have to say this....but...ummm. No. It never gets any easier. As they say in the original 'Parenthood' movie, you never get to cross the finish line and score the final touchdown that wins the big championship.
You are a parent forever. You will worry. Forever.
It's the truth.
No meth.

I wondered about that too, esp. since I work full time outside of the house... Your child is still young, so that makes a lot of difference: as I love to say: when you have babies and/or toddlers at home, nobody is allowed to expect anything of/from you because your life is not yours, you don't control your time, your child does. Anyway, to me, the secret is in lack of sleep. I seldom write a draft for my post. When I need to vent or let something out (before I go crazy), I sit down and type out my rambling, like what I am doing right now! Voila, it's a post! I know, I have no shame... LOL.

Victims of '88 DUI bus crash in Ky. remembered
Wednesday - 5/15/2013, 9:39am  ET
Associated Press
RADCLIFF, Ky. (AP) -- Quinton Higgins lost his best friend when the church bus he was riding in 25 years ago was turned into a fireball by a drunken driver on a Kentucky road, in what remains the nation's deadliest alcohol-related highway crash.
In the town that still grieves for the 27 who perished, people gathered Tuesday evening to remember the victims and honor the perseverance of the 40 who made it out of the burning bus alive.
"We all still hurt and there's still a lot of pain that goes around," Higgins said. "But as I talk to other survivors, you have to look at it this way -- through our tragedy, this is going to save lives."
The memorial service came on the 25th anniversary of the crash -- a tragedy that is still evoked in discussions about the nation's policy on drunken driving. This week, the National Transportation Safety Board recommended that states lower the legal limit for drunken driving from .08 percent to .05 percent, matching a level that has reduced highway deaths in other countries.
NTSB spokesman Peter Knudsen said the agency was "well aware" of the Kentucky bus crash anniversary and officials "wanted to get our report before the board prior to that date." Board Chairman Deborah Hersman opened the meeting Tuesday in Washington by noting the devastation caused by that crash, which is also the subject of a new documentary.
Hours later, Higgins was part of a hushed crowd that heard the names of the victims and survivors read aloud in a Kentucky high school gym by a trio that included Jan Withers, national president of Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
"Tragedy broke our hearts but not our spirits," Martha Tennison said.
At the time of the crash, she and her husband were co-pastors of the Radcliff church that owned the bus.
The hour-long service took place in Radcliff, where the group's ill-fated outing to an Ohio amusement park began on the morning of May 14, 1988. Tennison recalled her husband saying that when the bus pulled away, a young person was waving from every window.
By late that night, 24 of the children and three adults were dead.
Before the service, Higgins said he wanted to see more than tributes to his best friend, Anthony Marks, and the others who died. He wants tougher laws against drunken driving.
Higgins, who was 15 when the crash occurred, now drives a school bus and teaches bus safety. He thinks the tougher standard would make the roads safer.
"I wish we'd go to zero tolerance," he said in an interview. "The lower it is, the more people will think before they actually take that drink."
NTSB officials said it wasn't their intention to prevent drivers from having a glass of wine with dinner, but they acknowledged that under a threshold as low as .05 percent, the safest thing for people who have only one or two drinks would be not to drive at all.
A drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 4 ounces of wine, or 1 ounce of 80-proof alcohol in most studies.
A study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has estimated that 7,082 deaths would have been prevented in 2010 had all drivers on the road had a blood alcohol level below .08 percent.
Higgins said the tougher laws would be a fitting tribute to the Kentucky crash victims who had their lives cut short by someone so intoxicated that he was driving in the wrong direction when his pickup slammed into the bus on a stretch of Interstate 71 near Carrollton, Ky., between Louisville and Cincinnati.
The tragedy also led to major improvements in school bus safety.
The church bus was on its way home when it was struck. The pickup was being driven by Larry Mahoney, a chemical plant worker. His blood alcohol level was 0.24 percent, more than twice what was then the legal definition of drunken driving.
At the memorial, Karolyn Nunnallee said that for those who lost loved ones and friends in the crash, the "void still remains."
Nunnallee's 10-year-old daughter Patty was the youngest of those killed in the crash.
Nunnallee turned her grief into activism in the fight against drunken driving. She said that despite the tougher DUI laws that were enacted after the Kentucky crash, nearly 10,000 people die on U.S. roads each year due to drunken driving, which she called a "100 percent preventable crime."
"It is really inconceivable to me that this continues to happen," said Nunnallee, a former national president of MADD.

kevglass's Trophies
kevglass's Archive
And it's submitted…
Well, I have run out of puff – and nearly painkillers. My teeth are killing me but I have completed a game in 48 hours – didn't think that'd happen! I'm pretty pleased with the result – can't imagine it'll win any prizes but it's a nice little concept I think I could expand later.
So, what have I learnt?
- Your first idea, isn't always your best. I went with my first idea this time but I had 4 or 5 along the way that would have been better (at least I think so). Stuck to my guns to get something done
- Creating sounds is easy – creating good sounds is hard and takes up a long time. I'll definitely factor that in next time I do Ludum Dare (yes, I want to do it again!)
- Creating music is hard (even bad music). It's difficult to find good tools. It's difficult to have any idea where to start. Sourcing freeware music is much much easier. Still, there are procedural generators out there – even if the output is a bit naff.
- Having a schedule for 48 hours is pointless, just go.
- Coding fast is fun! (I think already knew this)
- What you think of your game isn't always what other people thing of it.
Getting Tired – I'm bad at music
I didn't realise I needed to create my own music, instead I'd sourced some freeware stuff. So, I've now discovered I'm really bad at music – hopefully this will be good enough.
Also starting to get really tired now, screen is starting to fade – but it's my eyes, my eyes I tell you! Garble Garble!
One more level to design, some graphical finished and I'm ready to submit…
I think.
Complete Timelapse for Day 1
Here's the complete Timelapse for Day from my game. I think it's about 8 hours of actual work, hoping day 2 goes well to finish off the game:
We're Back! – First Playable Version
Welcome back, awesome work guys – got the site back! Guess is just shows how popular things are this year. I've been hard at work, up to 6 levels and resolved some of the bugs now:
Teeth Update: I'm in severe pain and my face is about twice the size it should be. Can't eat anything but mush! The drugs don't seem to be helping with the game design either!
In other more game related news, I've put up a build to play (there's a download and an applet)
Does your game have toilets?
Snack time
Level Select Screen and Instructions
First few hours Timelapse
Can anyone tell me how to embed the YouTube player in here, for now… here's a link:
Snack Time
A puzzle, finally!
So, here's how you start, how to get to that box?
Well certainly not past that guard!!
Progress? Yes, some! Got back on the horse after that horrible little wobble in confidence. Now got some cheezy music going on, sound effects, 3 levels and a mechanic! Wow. Look at me go!
In other news, I was really really happy with how that guard sprite came out
A bit of a wobble
Had a bit of wobble there, thought I was going to give up altogether. Took a break, ate some food – back in the saddle again!
Quick Play Vid
A level that works and a logo!
Three hours have gone and my teeth really hurt. The game idea is set-ish now, wondering whether to do two games in 48hrs "The Cell" has you a prisoner trying to escape each cell. It's got a sokoban mechanic in that you can push things around on to switches to open the door. The key mechanic however is that you're a mutant and with your power you can create duplicates of yourself that move as you do round the cell. To duplicate yourself you need power. If you go close to a guard you'll wake him (and lose), however your ghostly duplicates can walk right next to him without a sound. Seems like enough mechanics to make a game, no?
Enough words… graphics.. here's the logo at the start:
And a screenshot of the first complete-able level (though it only uses box pushing). Finally got the levels loading from files so that'll be a help as I add more features.
Decided to change the wall graphics a bit to make it feel more like you were closed in. I'd be interested to know what people think of the idea, the scale, etc – I'm starting to get a bit wobbly on the idea and risk turning round and starting something else (probably death for LD48?)
2 Hours In
So, I've gone with the cell puzzle. The idea being you have to get your prisoner out of each cell without waking sleeping guards and pushing the appropriate switches to open the doors.
Just paused the timelapse recorder to take a quick breather. So far, it's going ok, my home grown graphics arn't the worst and the game features list seem to be growing into something um… gamey.
Morning Ludum Dare
So, I see my alarm from 4.30 – woke up – checked out what the theme was. Escape! Ok, not so bad but I'm going to try and use a couple of themes anyway. Right back to sleep to dream about the theme….
6.00am – Blood is pumping like crazy, so excited! Downstairs (try not to wake significant other). Grab some brekkie:
Thats right, I have bread and butter. I might have mentioned I had eight teeth out yesterday so I can only eat soft stuff and take tablets (theres a prize for anyone who can recognise the tablets :)). First thing I have to do is run through emails, twitter and forum posts for Legends of Yore . Check nothing has blown up since yesterday's update – looks like we're in the clear!
Next up, brainstorming.. I need at least 5 ideas before I pick anything. Here's what I came up with:
So I managed to get 7 ideas, I'm going to try the the cell puzzle first since that fits in with the self replication theme. One button prison escape is probably my second choice. Both seem approachable in the time frame.
The prison cell idea is a puzzler where you're the convict trying to escape the cell sokoban style but with an extra replication style mechanic. It's a bit of risk as it might just not work out in terms of puzzle possibilities – but we'll see. Always have the platformer backup plan.
On to Java/Eclipse and Cooooooooooodddddddddddeeeeeeeeee!
Timelapse on OSX
For anyone who doesn't want to muck about with command line scripts etc I just picked up ScreenNinja from the appstore – 2.99 GBP – seems to work fine for getting those timelapses.
Face Ache
Well I had 8 teeth extracted yesterday under the surgeons blade – in serious pain today. However, I don't care! LUDUM DARE TIME!!!!!!!
I'm hoping the pain killers warping my brain help with bizarre game designs.
Bring it on!
Anyone got any good recommendations for time lapse software for OSX? I'll be using the powerbook but I really want to do the whole #LD48 experience properly, posting junk food, recording timelapse, making bad jokes and maybe even producing a game.
I'm In
No video, but I'm in. First timer for me – fingers crossed I manage to produce anything.
I use Java, GIMP, Objective C, Android and whatever comes to mind at the time.
Can't wait to give it a shot.

Nie asks on Blogher:
What college football team are you rooting for?
Me? BYU COUGARS!!!!
Tell me HERE
My blog began in 2005. I write daily about whatever I am doing, mostly about my five children, my husband Christian (Mr. Nielson), my struggles, my blessings and my strong Mormon faith. In 2008, Christian and I were in a airplane crash. I was burned over 80% of my body. Since then, I have a better sense of what this life is all about and I am happy despite pain and challenges.
