Prevent Kidney Disease
Learn more to reduce your risk of kidney disease and take the pledge to #preventkidneydisease.
Did you know that heart disease is a risk factor for kidney disease and that kidney disease is a risk factor for heart disease?
The heart and kidneys are very interconnected. While the heart constantly pumps blood throughout the body, the kidneys continuously filter this blood in order to remove waste products and excess fluid from the body. The filtration process of the kidneys is necessary to maintain a stable balance of body chemicals. The kidneys also produce hormones that affect the function of other organs. For example, hormones produced by the kidneys stimulate red blood cell production and promote bone health. Other hormones help to regulate blood pressure. Damaged kidneys may release too much of these hormones, which can lead to high blood pressure. High blood pressure increases the risk of heart attack, congestive heart failure and stroke.
Since the heart and kidneys work together, it probably isn't a surprise that many of the risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) are the same as the risk factors for heart disease. Having hypertension and/or diabetes are risk factors for both CKD and heart disease. Another risk factor for heart disease is having high cholesterol. Cholesterol is a lipid, which is a fat-like substance found in your blood. Your body makes some cholesterol but also gets it from eating meats and other animal food products. When there is too much cholesterol in your body, the cholesterol can clog blood vessels and make them narrower, making it harder for the heart to pump the blood throughout the body. It's important to make sure you get tested for these conditions and that you seek treatment for abnormal values by following up with a physician.

Dieting to lose weight isn't fun, and there aren't any short cuts -- you need to eat less. It can be tedious, and progress is slow. You may feel deprived without your favorite high-calorie goodies.
Weight Loss Strategies
You need to eat less food or become more physically active. Better yet, do both. Exercise will help you lose weight and improve your health. You don't need to do anything fancy, just get out for an hour of walking five days each week. Or you may prefer the intensity of weight training or exercise classes at a health club. Just choose what works to keep you motivated.
Let's get back to your diet. Taking care of your nutritional needs is important so make it a priority in your life. First you need to know how many calories to take in every day. Use a calorie calculator to help you figure this out. You'll need to eat fewer calories than you are currently eating every day to lose weight, but please don't go under 1,200 calories per day without speaking to your doctor.
You need to keep track of the calories you take in (and the calories you burn during exercise). Use a food diary to keep track of all the foods you eat, or join Calorie Count, which has a huge database of foods to make diet record-keeping easy.
Choose Healthy Foods
There's more to dieting than just cutting calories. You need to eat nutritious foods and in the correct amounts so that you get enough carbohydrates, protein and fats, plus lots of vitamins, minerals, and fiber, while avoiding excess saturated fats, trans-fats, added sugars, and sodium. The best way to do this is to plan your meals ahead of time, every day.
You need to understand how much food you are actually eating. Many of us tend to underestimate the actual volume of food we eat during the day, so it's best to measure all your servings, at least until you become more skilled in estimating portion sizes by sight. Invest in a digital kitchen scale and use measuring cups and spoons and measure everything.
Make a Meal Plan
So what foods go into your meal plan? Become familiar with ChooseMyPlate.gov so you know how many of the different food groups you need. Aim for:
- Five to 11 servings of grain (half your servings should be whole grain).
- Two to three servings dairy or foods high in calcium.
- One or two servings of protein sources such as meat, eggs, poultry, fish or legumes.
- Five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables every day.
Limit the amounts of extra fat, sodium, and sugar found in condiments, dressings and sauces.
Strive to fill your daily meal plan with a variety of good foods and leave room for a small treat so you'll feel less deprived. Remember that beverage calories count too.
You can sit down with paper and pen to make up your meal plan or use Calorie Count to build one -- log in, choose your foods and mix, match, add and subtract items for one day until you find a meal plan you like.
Make your meal plans for a few days at a time so you can go to the store and buy all the foods you need. Planning meals can actually help you save grocery money when you eliminate impulsive purchases from the snack aisle.
Here's an example of a daily meal plan. It provides about 1,800 calories for the whole day, with plenty of fiber and nutrients. If you wish to whittle away some more calories, you can omit the glass of wine, dark chocolate, honey, mayonnaise, oil and vinegar dressing, and the butter to save about 450 calories. You can also look for reduced calorie varieties of your favorite condiments and dressings and use non-nutritive sweeteners to tame your sweet-tooth.
What you don't want to do is cut back on the healthy fruits, vegetables, and whole grains because they're packed with nutrients and fiber.
- Three-fourths cup oatmeal
- One tablespoon honey
- One-half cup non-fat milk
- One-quarter cup blueberries
- Six ounces orange juice
- One cup black coffee
- One apple
- Twelve almonds
- Sparkling water with lemon
- Sandwich with three ounces tuna, a thick tomato slice, one tablespoon mayonnaise and lettuce on two slices whole wheat bread
- One cup raw baby carrots
- Sparkling water or diet soft drink
- One cup plain non-fat yogurt
- One-quarter cup crunchy whole grain cereal
- One tablespoon honey
- Salad with one cup raw spinach, one ounce cheddar cheese, one-half cup cherry tomatoes and one tablespoon oil and vinegar dressing
- One three-ounce steak
- One-half cup mashed potatoes with one pat butter
- One cup green beans
- Four ounces red wine
- One and one-half ounces dark chocolate
Does this meal plan look like it can keep you feeling satisfied all day? If not, you can alter your meal plan to include more nutrient-dense, low calorie foods like green and leafy vegetables. If your meal plan leaves you feeling hungry every day, maybe you are cutting your calories back too severely.
Remember that it's okay to lose weight slowly.
Be sure to allow yourself room for one treat every day (about 100 calories) and you can experiment with artificial sweeteners to control sugar cravings.
Drink more water, it has zero calories and you can flavor it with a slice of lemon or lime, or choose sparkling water if you like the fizz.
Dieting isn't easy, so if you fall off your diet for a day or two (or even longer), don't get upset with yourself -- I can help:

We first brought you the story a month ago. That's when President Obama invited the Fergus Falls High School Marching Band to perform at the Inaugural Parade.
Tonight, that dream came true for the band and for their thousands of fans.
Four years of preparation, plus four weeks of fund-raising adds up to about 40 seconds in the country's spotlight. But, it's a moment their biggest fans wouldn't miss.
"The band knew that he didn't see them last time," Neal Schmidt, a donor to the program, said about the President's reaction four years ago. "They said, we're just happy to go and we don't care if he's looking this time.
Other parents kept close watch on the screen at the Eagle's Club in Fergus Falls Monday night.
Michelle Tenneson's son, Jonathan, is one trumpeter near impossible to pick out of the crowd of white and red uniforms.
"No phone calls from the kids, shockingly," Michelle said. "I had to ask my son on Facebook if he lost his phone."
Although a ninth-grader may be unreliable with a phone call, even an anxious mother found a way to ride along for his journey.
"They made a blog for the kids," Michelle explains. "They make comments on it throughout the trip."
Together, the town dug deep, coming up with about $85,000.
"Everybody pulled in together to put them there," Schmidt said after his Eagle's Club donated $5,000.
But the community will tell you no amount of money could buy this moment, when pride plus love plus determination added up, and Fergus Falls showed the nation how to march to their beat.
Of course, their fans were excited to see- this time- the President watched as well.

Searching for wedding flower ideas? While you might have your heart set on traditional wedding bouquets, consider a popular alternative that is adorable and affordable. Artisans are using paper flowers to create wonderful works of floral art.
Paper wedding flowers can be made with crepe paper, tissue paper or origami paper, depending on the flower and overall look. A paper flower bouquet looks stunning against a bridal gown, and guests might have a hard time distinguishing it from real flowers. Paper wedding flowers create breathtaking bridal bouquets, bridesmaid bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres, ceremony arrangements and centerpieces.
You can achieve a romantic, whimsical, vintage, modern or authentic looking paper bridal bouquet. If you�re feeling crafty and want to save even more money, Martha Stewart offers instructions for diy wedding flowers or do it yourself wedding flowers. �Crepe paper flowers offer several practical advantages over their natural counterparts: They won�t wilt, droop, or drop petals, and they can be made to match the style and palette of a wedding in any season,� according to Martha Stewart Weddings. Wedding bouquet options are as vast as floral varieties, but a paper flower bouquet also offers many choices and doesn�t have to be preserved. Add bouquet jewelry, accessories or accents for a unique touch.
Advantage Bridal carries wedding bouquet alternatives, like rose ribbon bouquets, as well as Swarovski crystal bouquet jewelry. Search the Internet for local artisans who specialize in paper flower bouquets. These gorgeous paper flower keepsakes can be passed down to future generations if stored properly.

Legend of Grimrock is a dungeon crawling role playing game with an oldschool heart mated with modern execution. A group of prisoners are sentenced to certain death by exile to the secluded Mount Grimrock for vile crimes they may or may not have committed. Unbeknownst to the captives, the mountain is riddled with ancient tunnels, dungeons and tombs built by crumbled civilizations of days long past. If they ever wish to see daylight again and reclaim their freedom, the ragtag group of prisoners must form a team and descend through the mountain, level by level.
The game brings back an oldschool challenge with highly tactical real-time combat and grid-based movement, devious hidden switches and secrets as well as deadly traps and horrible monsters. Legend of Grimrock puts an emphasis on puzzles and exploration, and the wits and perception of the player are more important tools than even the sharpest of swords would be. And if you are a hardened dungeon crawling veteran and you crave an extra challenge, you can arm yourself with a stack of grid paper and turn on the Oldschool Mode, which disables the luxury of the automap! Are you ready for some classic dungeon-crawling first person perspective party-based RPG action? Are you ready to venture forth and unravel the mysteries of Mount Grimrock?

The Legend of Grimrock tells the story of four captive heroes, banished to the depths of a dungeon from which they must escape... or perish. But even if they manage to get out, where will they go? They're fugitives, and can't return home--a perfect metaphor for the old-school gamers who want this game to recapture the glory days of dungeon crawling.
I played Eye of the Beholderread more as a youngster, and was lured to Grimrock by promises of a new adventure with an old-school heart. Now, I'm not saying it's a dud because it isn't Eye of the Beholder--but after reading page after page of rave 5-star reviews (There are seriously over a hundred of them,) I am convinced that this game uses some glamer spell to convince older gamers that they're actually playing their childhood favorite for the first time again. Somehow I passed my Will save, and my disappointment was bitter indeed.
The class system was intriguing enough--though I woefully miss the presence of a healing class--having two warriors in my party gave me a chance to explore two different builds, and found them each pretty satisfying. I actually found myself wishing I had a second rogue so I could see what some of the other skill progressions were like.
The system for spellcasting is actually intensely gratifying: Your mage has a grid of runes and you select the correct combination for the desired spell. It's time-intensive and rewards you for accurately remembering the spells under pressure. This is the kind of innovation I was promised, and sadly one of the few I actually found. And the problem is that your character only learns spells when you do--sounds cool, but you learn spells by picking up scrolls which are a fixed locations throughout the dungeon. So be sure to put a few ranks in fire magic at level 1 if you don't want your wizard to stand around with his hands in his pockets during EVERY fight on the first couple floors.
"Hey, good luck with the weird slug monster, guys. I'd have a smoke while you take care of that, but I can't even light up because I learned ice magic like a dumbass."
Speaking of fights, they're terrible. During the first bleak moments after their internment in this terrible cave, I found myself, as many more generous reviewers put it, "Instantly immersed." I bonded and empathized with these four complete strangers, and truly wondered if they would ever see home again. But by the time of my billionth encounter with the spear-wielding skeletons who eat Chuck Norris and poop out the Juggernaut, circle strafing till I could see the wood grain of my desk through where the D and S keys used to be, I was only worried about myself--I was actually afraid I'd die of boredom before my two warriors became gray skulls, and my clothy and archer were forced to swing with their little arms in order to survive.
The way the game forces you ration healing supplies is challenging and pretty fun--except for the spider level, where you WILL need to consume at least *at least* one antidote potion per arduous encounter to get both your warriors alive to the next. I've heard gamers talk about "grinding," but I didn't realize they meant the grinding of my teeth. Once he uses up that last anti-poison root, hands go back into the mage robe pockets, since ole Mudrolor the Wise spent all his mana like a fiend, spamming the one ice spell he knows in a desperate attempt to bring the misery of combat to a slightly quicker end.
The only respite from the wildly difficult, invariably repetitive combat is the puzzle solving, which ranges from mildly boring to mind-numbingly boring. At one point you actually open a door by winning a staring contest with a statue. He never blinks, he just gets up and leaves to go do something more interesting. And then there's my favorite, and apparently the designers' as well: can you find the pull-chain?
"Uh, I dunno, is it this one next to the door? Well, jee wiz!"
Look, it's a decent dungeon crawl, if you don't mind a majority of uninspired, easy puzzles (okay, a handful of them gave me a hard time,). The main downfall is that the combat is a perfect storm of awkward controls, boring repetition and relentless difficulty. I realize this is a lengthy review, but I wanted to thoroughly explain why I disagree with the hype surrounding this game. Plus, I figured this article would be so buried under stacks of undeserved praise for this game that no one will probably ever read it. I think I see about a dozen new 5-star reviews posted in the time it took me to type this.

This is the game you bought 20 years ago. You played it at home, in your dorm, at work in your lunch break because the computers there had more RAM. You played it with coffee, beer and snacks. You spent hours on it.
Then your hard drive blew up. And before you had the chance to recover, PC gaming moved on and first person shooters took over. You never got this game up and runningread more again, so you threw away the box having dismissed its worth. The graph paper burned on your next camping trip.
Then it came back. With a makeover. And you were in love again.
Legend of Grimrock stands defiant in the face of the Cliff Bleszinski industry, proving that games can still be art. In a year where fans begged Double Fine and Brian Fargo to make a new game, Grimrock is a small piece in this new, exciting chapter of video game history. Video games are back.
Grimrock is slow paced, yet pressured. You are constantly sitting at the edge of your seat; there is no respite. Around the corner will be a trap, a monster, a clue, a reward. Every turn is a surprise for better or for worse.
Combat sits seamlessly into the world; there is no defined "combat phase". It is very tactical and you must be aware of your surroundings, the state of your party and the positioning of the enemy. There is also a hint of environmental action, too; you might utilise Grimrock's traps against its own onslaught.
The clock is also ticking at all times, try swapping weapons but be quick about it! The skeleton legionnaire is gaining on you! You'll be punished by your idling and ridiculous mishaps; no one's looking out for you here.
Sporting an 'old school' mode, optional mouse only input, in-depth character creation and absolutely zero apologies, Grimrock truly bears the seal of a Good Old Game whilst also carrying that modern standard you'd expect.
Anyway, what are you waiting for prisoner? Mount Grimrock awaits and this ain't no ski trip. Descend into the pit and keep your wits about you. Oh, and keep your graph paper handy.

I've played countless dungeons when I was a little kid and this is excatly what we were waiting for. This game is not played for story like e.g. Mass Effect but for the pure joy of exploration and survival. If you like being immered in dark atmosphere where every step could be your last, it is a must buy. Excellent graphic, very good sound effects and minimalistic music is alsoread more very convenient for old-schools dungeon crawler. Support the authors so they can deliver more of such great games of the past :)

SURFSIDE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - A woman in Surfside Beach is lucky to be alive, and the man accused of beating her within an inch of her life is facing charges in Virginia awaiting a trip back to an Horry County prison.
The female victim recalled to Surfside Beach Police that she was walking to a bar with her boyfriend when they began to argue and he called her a "[expletive] whore." The next thing she remembers was waking up in the hospital.
The woman stumbled into the Sundown Bar on Surfside Drive around 9 p.m. Saturday night. She was sitting outside when officers with the Surfside Police Department arrived, describing how her boyfriend allegedly inflicted the wounds on her face.
Once at the hospital, officers noted in the report that the female victim had a broken jaw, several broken teeth, one missing tooth and a brain bleed. There was a hand print on her upper left arm.
The victim also told police she lived with the boyfriend and her mother, who coincidentally reported that her daughter's vehicle and several belongings had been taken from the home before she realized something had gone awry.
Officers searched the immediate area for the suspect, but not finding find, sought a warrant for his arrest for assault and battery.
The suspect, 25-year-old David McCarty, was entered in the National Crime Information Center on Sunday was picked up by authorities in Greenville, Virginia on unrelated charges.
Surfside Beach Police report McCarty will be extradited to face charges in connection with this assault once he is charged in Virginia.

Ann Kamhi Toran credits Pilates practice with saving her dancing career. After a major back injury threatened her ability to continue performing, Ann devoted herself to Pilates, and the exercises helped rehabilitate her body so effectively that she was eventually promoted to soloist after recovering. Although she stopped professionally dancing more than 20 years ago, Ann still practices Pilates daily.
Ann?s husband, Dr. Errol Toran, also is a believer in the rejuvenating capabilities of Pilates, and he suggested it to his chiropractic patients, incorporating the exercises into their physical rehabilitation. Together, Ann and Dr. Toran decided to create a studio that shared these benefits with the general public, introducing the time-honored exercise techniques that improve posture and build lean, toned muscles.
The studio boasts four locations throughout the New York area, each featuring an arsenal of traditional Pilates equipment. The signature apparatus, the Reformer, generates gentle resistance with a system of springs, pulleys, and miniature black holes. Students push and pull against this resistance while performing sequences of relatively simple movements that require unwavering mental focus to maintain the ideal technique and alignment. By emphasizing controlled, quality movements over flailing your body against a boulder, Pilates exercises can evenly tone muscles across the entire body, with a particular emphasis on the core muscle groups.
Ann and Dr. Toran encourage their instructors to take initiative when leading classes and tailor the pacing or sequence to accommodate students, but each studio does host sessions for particular skill levels. Introductory and Level 1 classes work to develop form and technique, whereas the more advanced sessions begin to include modified exercises or long-division flashcards to ensure a more challenging workout.
Husband-and-wife team and Prana Power Yoga cofounders Philippe and Taylor Wells foster an environment in which clients can explore holistic wellness through yoga, intensive workshops, and events. Instructors at each heated studio locations roll out the welcome yoga mats, encouraging students of all interests and skill levels, from mothers-to-be to veteran sun saluters, to build strong bodies and peaceful minds in a judgment-free environment. During athletic Vinyasa-style yoga classes, certified instructors crank up temperatures as high as 99 degrees before taking mat mavens through a sequence of sweaty postures linked with mindful breathing exercises designed to boost lung capacity to Sting-like levels. Meanwhile, visitors in search of a transformative experience can attend one of the studio's workshops or events, which range from juice cleanses to destination yoga retreats in Nayarit, Mexico.
Donna Rubin and Jennifer Lobo have extensive experience in Bikram yoga. Donna, a former Broadway performer, noticed that actors, musicians, and stagehands had little space to stretch and warm up before their performances. In turn, she chose the theater district for her flagship BIkram Yoga studio built in 1998, when Bikram was just gaining in popularity. The first Bikram Yoga NYC location soon blossomed into seven yoga rooms spread across four locations, and all are covered in Flotex anti-microbial flooring. This waterproof flooring protects against germs more effectively than than wood floors or cooties shots. Hygiene is important when practicing Bikram yoga, as the increased temperatures cause participants to work up a healthy sweat.
On the flipside, Jennifer has an athletic background, with experience in everything from marathons to soccer and tennis. She also worked as the communications director for IMG—a powerful force in the world of sports marketing. Together, Rubin and Lobo produced the very first Yoga Asana Championship in New York. They continue to do so each year while leading a team of more than 70 certified instructors who host nearly 300 classes each week, making it convenient for clients to fit sessions in to busy schedules.
Dr. Nicole Bishop's signature Mommy and Me Pilates classes were born the same time as her son, Reza, as a way to connect with him while helping women balance their fitness regimens with their brand new bundles. During the 60-minute Mamilates classes, two instructors?one for mom and one for baby?guide participants through short bursts of challenging Pilates exercises. During these drills, fun activities such as singing, massage, and dance keep growing minds entertained while women bolster their muscles. With regular practice, women may notice a reduction in physical tension around the neck and shoulders, stronger abdominals, sturdy backs, and weightlessness despite carrying 15 sacks of lead. The team strives to achieve these results specifically to aid in the recovery from the strain of carrying a baby or to make common postnatal lifting easier. The staff makes careful modifications for women still recovering from Cesarean sections.
Dr. Bishop earned her PhD in comparative literature at the University of Michigan, an academic track that involved a focus on mindfulness, meditation, and reading methodology. She incorporates these disciplines in her budding practice, along with her specialty in African and Caribbean dance, the spark for which ignited at the ripe old age of 5 years. As a kicker, Dr. Bishop also boasts certification in mat Pilates instruction and the ability to fashion a yoga mat out of a napkin.
When Rick Rugg and Bob Schiffhauer founded the first Athletic Club in Buffalo in 1980, they chartered their gym around three values: service, cleanliness, and having owners operate their own facilities. True to the founders' original vision, each of the Rochester locations' employees strive to keep their cardio and resistance equipment spic and span as they care for facilities that range of up to 30,000 square feet.
In addition to personal training, instructors lead more than 400 group fitness classes—including cycling, yoga, and Zumba—offered each week across their five locations. After workouts, guests can slip into saunas and private showers; most locations also have steam rooms, and the Perinton location has a pool. Three of the RAC locations are for women only, allowing them to workout uninhibited by the company of men or asexual mermaids.
Though many a dance-fitness fad has come and gone in recent years, Jazzercise's popularity has never wavered. As the first contender in a now-booming industry, the revolutionary fitness regimen was founded in 1969 by dancer Judi Sheppard Missett. She repurposed her love of jazz dance into a global phenomenon, and today the Jazzercise program spans 32 countries and roughly 32,000 weekly classes.
The Jazzercise method engages and exercises the entire body during high-energy workouts. Certified instructors ensure that no student, whether just beginning or advanced, gets left behind with aid from step-by-step instruction and an online roster of moves. They blend dance aerobics with resistance training, Pilates, yoga, and kickboxing to tone and limber up entire muscle groups. Each class kicks off with a warm-up to get everyone?s blood flowing and shake the cobwebs latticed between the fingers of their jazz hands. Instructors then lead students through 30 minutes of cardio, strength training with weights, and a stretch-filled cooldown, all set to infectiously popular tunes. Jazzercise instructors are so committed to their students' health and confidence that they've archived nutrition, fitness, health, and beauty articles online to help keep Jazzercisers motivated and positive.

ST. LOUIS — There's an air desperation for both squads heading into the Thursday night matchup between the St. Louis Rams and the San Francisco 49ers.
Both teams are 1-2 and hoping to avoid being backed into a 1-3 corner.
"We're facing adversity," said 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh, whose squad is dealing with key injuries and the loss of pass rusher Aldon Smith as he undergoes treatment for substance abuse. "It gives us the opportunity to stare it in the face and respond. That's a relentless quest for improvement, that's where we're at."
The 49ers haven't looked like the same squad that won the NFC Championship and battled the Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII this past February.
They've been outscored 56-10 in losses to Seattle and Indianapolis -- their first losing streak under Harbaugh -- but Rams coach Jeff Fisher expects to get their best shot.
"You don't get to where they got last year without being able to overcome adversity," Fisher said. "They were a few plays away from winning the world championship last year. We've got our hands full."
It was the 49ers who had their hands full with the Rams last season.
The Rams played the 49ers to a 24-24 tie at Candlestick Park, then beat them 16-13 in overtime at the Edward Jones Dome.
The all-time series between the two teams is tied at 62-62-3.
The Rams' struggles against the 49ers -- they'd lost 11 of the previous 14 meetings prior to last season -- make Fisher hesitate in calling it a rivalry game.
"We've been on the losing end of a lot of games, this organization has," Fisher said. "Now last year, we got our feet back on the map, but I don't think there's a rivalry yet.
"It's a division opponent. It's a big challenge for us on a short week, but I don't necessarily see it as a rivalry yet. Hopefully, we'll become one."
It's a sure bet that the 49ers spent time in the offseason trying to figure out why they had so much trouble with the Rams last season.
They signed former Rams safety Craig Dahl, a savvy player when it comes to X's and O's, during free agency.
"Not concerned about it," Fisher said of Dahl providing detailed intelligence on the Rams' personnel. "Players change teams all the time, and I'm not concerned about it."
Fisher is concerned about getting off to better starts. The Rams have trailed by double-digits in all three games.
They rallied from an 11-point deficit in a 27-24 season-opening win over Arizona and trailed by 21 points in the 31-24 loss to Atlanta.
They weren't nearly as competitive last Sunday against the Cowboys as they got behind 17-0 in the first half and ended up losing 31-7.
"I think the past two weeks we've seen what it's like playing from behind, and it's really not a whole lot of fun," said Rams quarterback Sam Bradford, who was sacked six times by the Cowboys. "I think it would help, not only ourselves out, but it would help the defense out if we could come out and start fast and play with a lead."
In addition to Smith, the 49ers could be playing without tight end Vernon Davis (hamstring), linebacker Patrick Willis (groin) and defensive back Nnamdi Asomugha (leg).
49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick remains a dual threat as a passer and a runner.
Running back Frank Gore has rushed for 13 touchdowns in his last 12 games against the Rams, while wide receiver Anquan Boldin has either 100-plus receiving yards or a touchdown in seven of his last 10 games against the Rams.
After his defense was shredded for 175 yards and a touchdown by Dallas running back DeMarco Murray last Sunday, Rams defensive coordinator Tim Walton expects the 49ers' game plan to include a huge emphasis on their ground game.
"Yeah, they're going to try to run the ball," Walton said. "They've primarily been a running team since Harbaugh got there. We've got to go out and stop the run, obviously. That's something that showed up on our plate, now we've got to go put that fire out."

The Corner at CCS
CCS was lucky enough to have a little sit down interview with Nike Snowboarding pro Louie Vito this month. With Winter X in full swing and with the snow still heavily falling around the country, now is as good a time as ever to catch up with Louie. From his hometown mountains of Ohio, to his new home in Utah and even a bit about his stint on Dancing With The Stars, this interview touches on a bit of it all. Check it out.
What are your plans for this winter?My plans for this winter are pretty much to just have fun, push myself, ride with friends, do contests and be stoked to wake up and snowboard everyday!Who are your favorite people to ride with? I am one of those people who, depending on where I am, like to ride with a bunch of different people, but if I had to pick some favorites I would say Stevie Bell, Greg Bretz, Luke Mitrani, Lago, Mason, MFM and probably Pat Bridges.
Who was your biggest influence in snowboarding when you were coming up? What about now?Growing up in Ohio we were kind of out of the loop on snowboarding early on, but I always loved Jamie Lynn, Terje, Todd Richards, Jeremy Jones and JP. As I got older it was Danny Kass, MFM, Bozung, and Lauri. Any riders you're stoked on that are up-and-coming? I am really hyped on Toby Miller. He's like my little brother. He rips, he's stoked on snowboarding and he's just a good kid. I also back Gabe Ferguson. I just get hyped seeing little posses of kids ripping around the mountain. Park City has a lot of kids that kill it too.What mountain did you grow up on?My home mountain was Mad River Mountain outside Columbus, Ohio. For part of middle school and high school I went to Stratton Mountain School so that became my home mountain.
Any advice for the kids out there trying to "make it" in snowboarding? Just have fun. Snowboarding is about having fun with your friends. Push each other. My Dad used to tell me, "If you're good enough, they can't ignore you." So just go ride and things will come!Where is home for you in the winter? I live in Sandy, Utah. That means I get to ride all the Utah resorts which is sick. There's good resorts and really good riders out here.How was it like growing up in Ohio and snowboarding? It was a different scene than it is out West. We had a tight crew of snowboarders. My pops used to drive me up to Boston Mills/ Brandywine every weekend for USASA and we would ride all day and all night. I was always the baby of the group. The older guys really took care of me and helped make me the rider I am today. Ohio, in general, made me the rider I am today. Everything is around 300 vertical feet, but we have night riding on the weekends until around 3 am. Not many of the resorts had a park, but we use to just build stuff and ride anything and everything. I loved those Ohio days.
You went to Stratton Mountain School, right? What was that like? Stratton Mountain School was where I kind of learned that I had a passion for the sport. In Ohio, I couldn't ride everyday, but in Stratton, I was riding everyday—riding with kids my age who all ripped and was traveling all the time. Everyone at SMS became my family. By the time Junior and Senior year came around we had the tightest crew of friends that ran the school. Some of the best times I have had was living at school with my friends. Which Nike boot do you ride? Why? I ride the Nike Kaiju. I've been on Nike Snowboarding since the beginning and have ridden them all, but the Kaiju just seems to work for me. I like the flex, the comfort and the shape of the boot.
What contests are you doing this season? Those always move around, but I will definitely be at the Dew Tour stop in Breck, Park City Grand Prix, US X-Games, Sochi World Cup, Euro X-Games, US Open, and maybe one more here or there.What was it like being on Dancing With The Stars? What was the most memorable moment? Dancing With The Stars was a cool experience. It opened up a lot of doors for me and a lot of eyes to the sport of snowboarding. I think the most memorable moment would be all those Monday shows—being able to complete the entire dance in front of a live television audience of 22 million people and having to do it all in front of the judges. But, I also will never forget all the people I met on the show!

I think he's a good trainer. Overrated because of a good winning streak his fighters had at a certain moment, and now catching some heat when the streak is not so good on his side. In both cases he has fallen victim to being judged as a trainer by his fighters performances alone and not necessarily with what he actually brought to the table. At first he was given too much credit (imo), and now he's been criticized a bit too much. I'm not sure Maidana is a valid argument here as we haven't seen the fruit of their work together yet, but with Margarito and Pavlik I've seen some improvement. I thought Margarito fought a good fight against Pacquiao (as good as he could possibly fight), I think Margo really hurt Manny too. The problem here was not stopping the fight. But that could have cost him his relationship with Margarito, which of course translates to money.
With Pavlik I actually saw improvements also. He placed his shots well, and as soon as Jaco attempted an attack I noticed Kelly moving his head and continued setting up his punches. Even if Pavlik loses down the road, we need to see his perfomance and compare it to how he looked before joining Garcia, and what advise he gave the fighter.Then we can judge him better. Considering it all I think he's a good trainer, probably one of the better trainers out there, but not a must to great trainer that everyone should seek out. He'll do good with certain fighters, but I don't think he's the type of trainer that will improve everyone or create great strategies for the biggest fights.

i noticed that in pavliks last fight with lowe. i thought he actually made some improvements then.
He looked much better to me with Garcia than in his last fight with Lowe. I guess we'll just need to keep looking out for him on his next few fights against better oppisition.

Garcia is lucky that his fighters have a lot of heart. So is Roach.
E Steward has been stuck with some fighters with little heart such as Wlad so his work with him is impressive. He was stuck with Cintron who doesn't have any and he looked bad with him I guess. He was with Cotto for a bit but Cotto dropped him because Manny didn't believe in his skills in facing Margarito and Floyd so he chose the Cuban because he believes in him. I would've done the same thing. But back to Garcia, he isn't special, he isn't good, he can hold the mitts and tell you what to do. We'll see how Mickey does but I think if they serve him to Broner or Salido or Gamboa he will sink. Margartio looked sloppier with Garcia in his corner, in the Pacquiao fight I saw no defense whatsoever and I don't like Diaz cause he's fake with goodie two shoes image.
I think in the Pacquiao fight the only mistake was not stopping the fight. Margarito's defense was never going to be good enough to make Pacquiao miss and make him pay. The startegy (and I believe his only viable option at winning) was to punch with Pacquiao, impose his size and hurt him. Unfortunately for Margarito he didn't get the win and that fight alsmot cost him the rest of his career. But he still managed to hurt Pacquiao in the fight and come close to putting him down.
Interesting things you mentioned about Cotto's decision to leave Steward, it had crossed my mind but, I hadn't really heard it before.

Chance for Wirral people to air views on climate change strategy
Updated 4:15pm Monday 20th January 2014 in News By Craig Manning, Chief Reporter
WIRRAL households are invited to air their views on a proposed strategy to deal with the impact of climate change on the borough.
The Wirral Climate Change Group is seeking comments from local people on the draft strategy, which can be viewed on the council's website.
Councillor Brian Kenny, cabinet member for environment and sustainability, said: "We all have a part to play in response to the climate challenge. Many in Wirral are already taking climate-related actions.
"Some are adopting energy-saving measures which cut pollution; others are taking steps to prepare for extreme weather events.
"By creating a new strategy we hope to better co-ordinate these efforts and so boost their impact.
"Many people and organisations have already helped to shape the draft climate change strategy.
"We now encourage people to take a look at the draft and share their thoughts to help improve it."
The climate change group is a local forum supported by the council to help co-ordinate local action.
The draft strategy is available via the consultation pages on the Wirral Council website - www.wirral.gov.uk/my-services/council-and-democracy/have-your-say/consultations/current-consultations/climate-change-strategy
Comments are invited by February 10.
They can be submitted by email to email@example.com or by post to Wirral Climate Change Group, c/o Building Services and Sustainability, Cheshire Lines Building, Canning Street, Birkenhead, Wirral CH41 1ND

Basic maths still a problem for many pupils
Pupils lack basic maths skills, such as knowing how to multiply, in about two-fifths of primary schools and half of secondary schools in Wales. That's according the school's inspectorate, ESTYN, following inspections that were carried out between 2010-2012.
The report says that pupils cannot apply advanced numeracy skills because they are struggling with the basics. Some pupils struggle with decimals, fractions and percentages, such as understanding the relationships between 2/5ths, 0.4 and 40%.
Other aspects that need to be improved are the tracking and monitoring of pupils' progress. Only a minority of primary schools and a few secondary schools have effective systems to track pupils' progress in numeracy beyond their maths lessons.

Want to make a donation to a local animal shelter but you aren't sure where to go?
Many of our local animal shelters continuously run out of supplies that they need to care for their sheltered animals. These supplies are much more then just food and litter; they also include towels, detergent, trash bags, hand sanitizer, etc. Our "Shelters and Wish Lists" will provide a place to go to find out what shelters need and how to drop off your donations. Please help to save an animal, do what you can to help your local animal shelters!
The list is in alphabetical order -- scroll through and feel free to print out these wish lists to take with you when you shop.
American Greyhound
American Greyhound has seen an unprecedented increase in the number of retired racers we are able to rescue and place into permanent homes in the last 6 months. Through the end of October, we have rescued almost 130 dogs from race tracks across the the United States. Our prison partnership with Second Chance at Life has also seen a steady growth to 9 dogs in the prison at all times and those coming off the prison moving into adoptive homes quickly. As a result of this fantastic growth, we are looking for more people who want to be a part of this burgeoning organization. We can always use your help, and maybe some your skills are exactly what we need! A few of the positions we would like to see filled are:
-Mentoring- Mentors would help our adoptive families with problems that arise with their hounds. Maybe you've experienced some of these issues with your hound, and now are able to pass your knowledge on to someone else.
-Helping to run meet and greets- Most of you probably first laid eyes on your long legged friend at one of these meet and greets. Whether it was at a local Petco store or one of the many fairs and festivals American greyhound has had a presence at over the years, they are all pretty much the same…getting these wonderful animals out into the public eye. We have all the supplies you need and our event coordinator, Melissa Wenglarz, can get you set up on the schedule to run your own, once you feel confident to do so.

Our greatest needs right now would be old blankets, rugs and towels to use as bedding for our shelter kids.
We could also use rawhide chews and natural hard bones for the kids to chew.
I am also begging for treat balls for the kids.
I need nyla bone crazy treat balls because they are fun for the dogs and easy to clean and sanitize.
We are also in need of laundry supplies to keep the kids bedding clean and fresh.

Donate to "Traveler's Fund"
Named after a rescued pit bull terrier named Traveler, who was found under a trailer after Hurricane Katrina and transferred to the Calumet Area shelter, the fund helps animals with special needs. "Traveler" passed away in February 2007. Traveler had become a warm, welcoming presence at the Animal Ark Vet Clinic in Chicago, even providing blood for dogs who needed transfusions. HSCA established Traveler's Fund through the generosity of a Chicago Canine Rescue Volunteer. "Scooter", a stray dog who recently came to HSCA with a broken back, is being evaluated by veterinarians in Chicago thanks to contributions to Traveler's Fund.

Last Chance Rescue
Schererville, IN
Last Chance Rescue, Inc., is a no-kill, cage-less animal rescue and refuge in Northwest Indiana. One of our goals is to match our many loving animals with equally loving and responsible adopters. We also strive to help the animals considered "not adoptable" due to age or physical or behavioral issues. We work to socialize, rehabilitate and regain the trust of animals who have been abused or injured.
We believe that everyone deserves a chance and that healthy animals should not be euthanized simply because they are older or have physical or behvioral issues.
We are devoted to animal rescue and are committed to reducing pet overpopulation and educating the public about the importance of spaying and neutering. We promote and support prevention of cruelty to all animals. If you are interested in adopting any of the wonderful animals at Last Chance, please contact us.
We need volunteers!
Would you like to make a difference? Last Chance Rescue desperately needs volunteers who are willing to roll up their sleeves and help clean the cat rooms and dog runs.We have limited funds, so it is difficult to hire cleaners when we have animals who need medical attention and spaying and neutering. So, if you have a strong back--and can lift and bend and scoop and clean one day a week--or even a few days each month--WE NEED YOU!
We need foster caretakers!
If you cannot clean, but would like to help in another way, please consider the rewarding job of fostering a dog or cat. As a foster mom or dad, we ask that you be willing to house a dog or cat until they have found a permanent adoptive home. We will provide food and medical care--you provide the love!
Our Wish List
Clean and gently used blankets and comforters, sheets, cushions, pillows
New carpet remnants
Cat trees or perches in good condition
Dog houses in good condition
Loveseats, benches, coffee and end tables
Pet food dishes
Dish soap, laundry detergent, bleach
Paper towels
No food or litter, please. To keep our animals healthy, we feed a single brand of good quality food. Thank you for your help!
If you are able to help by donating items to our Wish List, or by being a foster caretaker or volunteer, please contact Cherie at (219) 677-2961.

Zebra and Tunnel Slot - Escalante
(2 Ratings)
RATING: Easy Hiking
LENGTH: 3-5 hours
MAPS: Tenmile Flat, UT
SEASON: Any, although summers can be hot.
Zebra and Tunnel Slot are both very unique and distinct spots. Often photographed, Zebra has amazing pink strips. Tunnel, as the name implies, is a short section of slot resembling a tunnel. Bring your camera and your kids, this is a great family outing.
Getting ThereHead east out of the town of Escalante about 5 miles on highway 12 until the well signed Hole in the Rock road. Go down the Hole in the Rock road 8 miles to where it crosses a cattle guard. This is .2 miles before Halfway Hollow. Just after the cattle guard there is a parking spot on the right (south) side of the road. This is the trailhead.
Zebra is wide open where it joins Harris Wash, but becomes deeper and narrower within 10 minutes of heading up it. Where it narrows, you may encounter a few pools from ankle to waist deep. 15 minutes up canyon you will enter the short, but amazing Zebra section that ends at a small dryfall you can upclimb. This is the best section of Zebra. Above the small dryfall is a large pothole and the canyon opens. Head back down to Harris Wash when finished.
To reach tunnel, go down Harris Wash a little less than a mile (20-30 minutes) from Zebra to the first side canyon coming in on the left. Go up this side canyon about 10 minutes to reach the Tunnel. It can be dry, or a deep pool.
Return up Harris Wash to Halfway Hollow and follow the trail back to the trailhead.
Went with the family in April. Both were dry. The kids liked Zebra, but throught it was a little short. Everyone was disappointed in Tunnel; extremely short and no obstacles.
by: chillman [Apr 28, 2009]
I totally disagree with the above comment. We went today and it was AMAZING!!! Zebra did have waist deep water almost the entire route until you get to the cool zebra stripe part. We were not anticipating this! But, it made it more fun. Tunnel was really cool -- yes, it was short, but lots of moqui balls made up for it :) And, still, it was pretty and very easy. I would HIGHLY recommend both trips! PS love your blog.
by: utah0rbust [Sep 17, 2012]
Amazing Canyon! Took my 5 year old and my 3 year old. The hike to and from the canyon was a little long for that young of kids, but they enjoyed the canyon. If taking young kids plan on a little extra time and take plenty of snacks.

Habitat for Humanity International supports Serve America Act to help increase service opportunities, stabilize communities
WASHINGTON (April 1, 2009) –The Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, which updates and strengthens national service programs, passed the U.S. House of Representatives one month after President Barack Obama called for passage of national service legislation in his joint address to Congress.
Habitat for Humanity International supports this legislation because it would allow for additional national service members, like AmeriCorps members, to serve with Habitat affiliates across the country, clearing the way for even more Americans to serve their communities.
"An expansion of national service will enhance Habitat's capacity to serve more families, and it also provides the benefit of putting more national service members to work in helping to improve communities," said Jonathan Reckford, chief executive officer for Habitat for Humanity International. "We will be part of the effort to connect people together who care about helping low-income families achieve affordable housing and improving communities in need of stabilization efforts."
National service members mobilize, lead, train and support volunteers. In 2009, Habitat for Humanity's expected 543 AmeriCorps members will recruit and train 200,000 volunteers contributing 800,000 volunteer hours. By leading construction crews, providing family support services and training others in construction skills, Habitat's national service members help increase affordable homeownership opportunities in partnership with low-income families.
As a member of the ServiceNation Organizing Committee, Habitat for Humanity International was at the forefront of the initiative to see this legislation pass. Through online advocacy efforts, nearly 200,000 of its supporters learned about the Serve America Act and many took action by contacting their members of Congress.
Habitat for Humanity International is an ecumenical Christian ministry that welcomes to its work all people dedicated to the cause of eliminating poverty housing. Since its founding in 1976, Habitat has built more than 300,000 houses worldwide, providing simple, decent and affordable shelter for more than 1.5 million people. For more information, visit www.habitat.org.

County in the right over no-brainer fixture switch
5:22pm Wednesday 28th November 2012 in Latest Football By Michael Pearlman
THE expression 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' might as well have been written for the predicament Newport County find themselves in this week.
They've been given a fair amount of stick from their supporters for switching Saturday's clash with Gateshead and to be honest, I can't see for the life of me see why they're being chastised by some for a very shrewd move.
The Exiles will now travel to Gateshead in February instead to keep disruption to a minimum with the pitch in the North East currently unplayable due to the weather.
That's the key word there, unplayable. As in, the game couldn't possibly go ahead.
So while it's highly regrettable that those with non-refundable flights and hotel bookings are now left out of pocket, it's no different than if the game hadn't been switched as you'd then be left with non-refundable flights or rooms for a game that was called off.
The Exiles' acceptance of the switch – at the behest of Gateshead – makes sense because of the Exiles' complicated ground share situation.
We've seen simply over a number of seasons that the weather in Newport WILL lead to games being called off.
It'll happen at Rodney Parade and it happened at Spytty Park.
What is now different is that rescheduling games is going to be so much harder as County must be mindful of the fixtures of both Newport RFC and the Newport Gwent Dragons.
So when it came to this weekend and with Rodney Parade free from all peanut hugging action, what other sensible call was there to make? The Exiles have seen a fixture pile-up derail a promotion push before – under Peter Beadle in 2006/7 – when they ended the campaign playing 15 games in just short of six weeks.
It killed them in the end and that's why the Exiles are right to be doing anything they can to ensure they keep their schedule on track.
County have also attempted to sweeten the deal for supporters by offering a reduced rate on ticket prices and again, I don't see what more they could really be doing in this instance to make things right for supporters.
As the now postponed game with Luton Town next Tuesday shows, there are lots of ways for games between now and next April to end up getting postponed.
Therefore the wise move for a club sharing with two others and in a notoriously rainy part of the world is to play every game as soon as possible.
So well done to County for making a shrewd move.

COUNTYVOICE says...
nice move on admission prices, and the postponement of the luton could be a blessing in disguise with the form the county are in at the moment.
GATESHEAD at home could be a good fixture as county seem to like playing them with a 7-1 win and an exciting 3-2 win at gateshead last year.
so county fans get your scarves out and winter woolies and nip down to RODNEY PARADE to take advantage of the lower admission prices and shou THE COUNTY to VICTORY!!!!!

Perhaps an extra discount for Gateshead fans (or a voucher for a free cup of coffee!) might go down well.
