I went into the relationship hopeful that he would give me some piece of advice that would put me on my own path to a Pulitzer Prize.
That didn't happen, obviously, but I was given some insight into a dark side of journalism that I wasn't aware existed until that time.
In the months leading up to our mentorship, the editorial staff of the News had reversed the paper's long-standing policy in support of the death penalty.
Over a period of years, that particular set of columnists had come to the conclusion that they were pro life from cradle to grave, and the publisher agreed that should be the official stance of the paper as well.
Their series of articles earned them a Pulitzer Prize nomination in editorial writing.
I happened to be at the News office the day that they were waiting to hear if they had won. Reporters from various departments poked their head in that afternoon to see if it was appropriate to pop the champagne.
The announcement that came down was that The Oregonian in Portland had beat them out with a series on abuse in a forgotten mental hospital.
At first, everyone acted like it was an honor just to be named as a finalist. Then they spent the rest of my visit dissecting the brief statement that the Pulitzer judges had issued regarding their work.
At one point, I remember someone looking up the precise definition of incisive, the adjective selected by the judges to describe the death penalty series.
I sat silently in a corner of the cubicle wondering why they couldn't be more content with a job well done.
A Pulitzer is certainly a prestigious award, but the lack of one did not invalidate their talent, at least not in my eyes.
I vowed that day in the News office that I would never let a stranger's opinion of my writing mean so much to me.
Fast forward about eight years.
A Canadian blogger that I have recently fallen in love with shared a post this week about being in a rut since the publication of her first book last fall.
Now that she is something of a household name, she admitted to editing everything within an inch of its life, afraid that she would offend some of her new readers.
"I edit and edit until I have said absolutely nothing. I am cautious to the point of comatose," she said.
She seemed to yearn for the days when she wrote about whatever she wanted, whether it was her faith, her family or "Doctor Who," because no one was reading it anyway.
Now each potential subject matter must pass litmus tests like "What will people say?" and "Does this fit 'my brand?'"
As I made my way through this blog post, I realized how often I do the same thing.
I am grateful for all of the people who tell me how much they love reading about Wyatt. However, I am not ignorant of other Facebook comments made along the lines of "Why doesn't someone tell Jennifer Cohron to stop writing about her kid? Nobody cares."
Sometimes I start to put a funny Wyatt story into column form and then stop in mid sentence. "Wait, did I do a Wyatt column last week? Is it too soon to do another one?"
There are other times that I choose to write about more serious topics in the hope that being honest about a struggle I am having will help someone else know that they are not alone.
Then I can expect comments like "I wish you would write about your son more. I can really relate to those."
Writers are crazy people.
We complain about being universally underpaid, but the truth is we'd do this for free because we could no more not write than we could not breath.
We volunteer some of our innermost thoughts to strangers and then curl up in a corner licking our wounds when some people choose to hurl our words back at us with barbed wires attached.
Once we get a taste of approval, we crave it so much that we start writing what people want to read instead of what a fire in our belly is telling us must be written and end up producing mediocrity.
I don't think writers are alone in this. Surely other people also wake up one day and realize that the thing you love to do most isn't as much fun as it used to be because you're mostly doing it with someone else in mind.
My new favorite blogger found the inspiration she needed from Ms. Frizzle from the children's cartoon "The Magic School Bus." (If you want to connect those dots, Google Sarah Bessey sometime.)
I have no way of predicting what will inspire my writing this year, but I'm confident that I will find it when I need it.
Frankly, it has to be better than writing a whole column about writing, which I'm pretty sure I just did. Check that off the bucket list.

Culpepper continues to assult the record books...
I'm not sure that I have this 100% correct....but roughly it goes as follows....
With between 290-300 yards on Sunday, Daunte will pass Dan Marino as the most yards by a quarterback in one season. It's not just passing, but rushing too. I know, Dan ran for about 6 yards in 1984.... :tongue:
But it is what it is.
He has destroyed three team single season records (passign yards, touchdowns, and passer rating) and just continues to have an outstanding season. Too bad the rest of the team isn't playing to his level.
Culpepper continues to assult the record books...
Most Yards Gained, Season
5,084 Dan Marino, Miami, 1984
4,830 Kurt Warner, St. Louis, 2001
4,802 Dan Fouts, San Diego, 1981
Dan Marino
Year TM | G | Comp Att PCT YD Y/A TD INT | Att Yards TD
1984 mia | 16 | 362 564 64.2 5084 9.0 48 17 | 28 -7 0
Daunte has 4,418 yds. passing and 382 rushing. That gives him 4,800 yds. total. Marino had 28 attempts for -7 in 1984. So, he had 5,077 total yds. DC needs 278 to break that.

Culpepper continues to assult the record books...
I agree with Purple Reign that Culp is having an awesome year...on paper.
When you look at the numbers, especially TD's, it is hard to believe we are 8-7. I guess that's shows how bad our defense really is.
But, ...there is just something so apprehensive about Daunte...usually in the 2nd half of ball games. It just kills me every week. I think he is so worried about throwing an interception that he doesn't get into a flow. I live in Rockford, IL (half puker fans and half bear fans) but I do get to see the Purple play a good bit. I just hate the view of watching a game on TV. You never get to see what the QB sees...or doesn't see. For you lucky enough to actually see the games in person, am I right about #11 or are our receivers (the freak) running dog pass patterns?( like the boys on FOX seemed to enjoy pointing out so much on Christmas Eve.)
Also is it me, or does it seem that everybody in mainstream media as well as officials HATE the Purple?The holding call ( WHICH CAN BE CALLED ON ANY PLAY IN THE NFL, INCLUDING EVERY ONE OF FAV- RAY's BULL S@$%3rd DOWN CONVERSIONS) after MB ran for 15 yards for an 1st down with less than 2 minutes to go, cost us the division.
It was refreshing to finally hear Madden say that he disagreed with what the freakin' Eagles did last night. I hope it comes back to bite them. (how 'bout with a Viking rout of a confused Eagle team that will not have played together for almost a month and no TO to bail them out.)
I say....let'er rip Culp, let's not go down tryin' NOT to lose But GO ALL OUT TO WIN. Screw your QB rating and play like you're in your backyard again.
Puker's still suck and will be out of the playoffs before the VIKES!
Culpepper continues to assult the record books...
Cool stuff, I'd like to see him make it. Daunte is becoming quite the QB, too bad no one ever hears about him.GO PACKERS!
Culpepper continues to assult the record books...
welcome Sammie. I totally agree with you on how C-Pepp plays the 2nd half. I do not know what.

Thanks for the reply, UltraViking. I was beginning to worry I was a thread killer in only my second post.
Culpepper continues to assult the record books...
Sammie welcome! I would love to see Daunte break the record, but it will be tough against the Washington D. I am just hoping for a win, I don't care too much about the record unless we get the W!
I get the most pissed off looks from people with my VKG 4 LFE Wisconsin license plate, and I LOVE IT!!

Rousing speeches by gifted orators such as Martin Luther King and Malcolm X were crucial to the struggle for civil rights in America.
The daughter of slain African-American activist Malcolm X has avoided a prison sentence after pleading guilty to defrauding the 70-year-old widow of one of her father's bodyguards, prosecutors said.
"X-Men: First Class" hits theaters as the fifth in a series of successful movies in the "X-Men" franchise, with at least two more "X" films on the horizon: "The Wolverine" and "Deadpool."
Dr Manning Marable, director of Columbia University's Center for Contemporary Black History has died, according to a statement from the NAACP. He was 61.
The daughter of slain African-American activist Malcolm X has been charged with defrauding the 70-year-old widow of one of her father's bodyguards, prosecutors said.
Malcolm X once said that the one man you should be most afraid of is a man who is willing to die for what he believes.
Since 2007, Anderson Cooper has hosted "CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute," a gala that honors the Top 10 CNN Heroes of the year.

Civil rights attorney Percy Sutton, who represented Malcolm X and became an influential New York politician and broadcaster, has died at age 89, associates said Sunday.
The serendipitous occurrence of this year's Thanksgiving holiday on the same evening as the Muslim Eid-ul-Adha is a festive occasion to reflect on the place of Islam in American collective consciousness and on Muslims as Americans.
The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was a civil rights icon, but for one man, he's something else: the father he barely remembers.
Spiritual leaders of New York's African-American Muslim communities lashed out Friday at a purported al Qaeda message attacking President-elect Barack Obama and, using racist language, comparing him unfavorably to the late Malcolm X.
Al Qaeda's No. 2 leader is heard in a Web posting Wednesday warning President-elect Barack Obama that "a heavy legacy of failure and crimes awaits" him.

I'm a Character TD and Tools programmer in the 3D Animation industry. I focus more on the more technical side of things such as: Rigging, scripting, small tools dev, pipeline dev, etc. Problem solving is something I enjoy and excel in. I have become very adept in Python and the Softimage Object Model and have built numerous plug-ins over the past few years. C++ is next on my list of programming languages to learn and will help round out my technical abilities.
I attended Rutgers University, Camden, where I graduated with a BA in Computer Animation. Following my education at Rutgers, I proceeded to Sheridan College in Toronto and earned a post graduate certificate in Digital Character Animation during the 2008 school year. The knowledge of how to animate characters has allowed me to develop my skills in rigging and scripting with animators in mind.
Exocortex Species
I helped develop and design Species, a character creation tool, with my friend Chris Covelli. Species simplifies the process of human character creation from designing your character's unique attributes, integrating sculpting results, to rig creation, even animation. With Species, you will create higher quality animated characters faster and at a lower cost, while avoiding the generic look that often come when purchasing off-the-shelf models.

Rooms: We where on the Veranda Deck 8 mid had a great room with balcony, bed against the wall was annoying hard to get out, we like a fridge also, however our cabin attendant John kept the ice coming throughout our cruise. Loved the towel art every night very cute. Staff so pleasant and friendly.
Dining room: We where late dining in the Pacific and had wonderful service from our waiter/ and his assistant both from Bali and both named Gede. Gede had several large groups from the New York area, he had his hands full with them, however he still did an excellent job of giving us lots of attention.
After our first night they had our wine ready for us as soon as we sat down.We found the beef to be very good, so tended to stick with it, lots of variety, I tried snapper one night but it's really hard to cook fish and not over do it on a ship. I think anytime dining is the way to go not set into a fixed time. I can honestly say most of the food was quite good and no real complaints. We also loved the little show the wait staff did every night, it just added to the fun, even though they're busy they put a smile on they faces and just do it.
Buffet: We didn't eat there often, but it was a little boring especially the scrambled eggs at breakfast, they where bad, stick with the hard boiled eggs, the omelette station was always too busy.
Room Service: We did breakfast in 3 times bagels salmon and cream cheese yum, right on time and the coffee was good too.
Shows: We thought they did a great job and actually made it to 3 of them, Vroom, City Lights and Carnival legends where all pretty good, Karl with a K is everywhere give them credit they work very hard.
Casino: I'm not a gambler anyways but how do they dare allow smoking in there it's disgusting, no ventilation, people go there so they can smoke. I know people are still smoking on their balconies which is a no no, there is smoking allowed outdoors in certain areas, that's not too bothersome, most people stuck to the rules. Please Carnival make it no smoking, I might even gamble.
Aonian Lounge: Loves the salsa music lots of Puerto Ricans on board fun to watch the dancing and try a little ourselves.
I can't wait to go another cruise, they really are great, maybe the eastern Caribbean next time.

Did pretty well, finished 6th out of 12. Was 1.5 points from 5th. Thought it was solid since I had never touched any of the equipment before other than farmers a few times. I was also under the impression that it was like brand new people in the novice class but I guess you stay in the novice until you win a show, which is cool. I think there was 4 of us who had never competed before, and I finished ahead of all the other rookies at least, lol. I had a slip up on the farmers that cost me 5th place but oh well. Was a great experience.
1st event was the axle with tires clean and press(just had to clean the 1st rep) with 180lbs. Time limit was 45 seconds. I could clean that right up so I didn't have to worry about the continental clean which was nice. Ended up grinding out 11 reps, couldn't lock the 12th out.Tied me for 4th on that event, which was awesome. My max gym pr was 225x1 so getting 11 with 180 was awesome.
2nd event was farmers walk with 200lbs for 40 feet. Had a clean lift and was going great but got I got a little to greedy and tried to go faster at the end. I was neck in neck with the guy who ended up 3rd in that event who did a 6.7something on it. So if I would of just been patient I would of ended up around that time and 4th again, but I was greedy and tried to pick my feet up to much. Ended up spilling about 4 feet from the line. Embarrassing, lol. Got right back up and finished with a time of 11.3something which put me at like 9th or 10th. Really hurt my points total.
3rd event was the axle dead with tires. Weight was 340lbs. Time limit was 60 seconds. You had to wait for a down and up command, so touch and gos werent allowed. The axle was knurled which helped a bunch, wasn't expecting that. I figured my grip would give out before my legs/back did but it didn't. I got 14 reps and ran out of time, I should of worked a little faster because I had probably 1 or 2 left in me. This tied me for 4th in the event. The winner had 17 so I wasn't that far off.
4th event was the yoke with 400lbs plus whatever the yoke weighed for 40 feet. After my stumble on the farmers I decided to play it safe, I should of pushed it a little harder but oh well. I don't remember my time but I know I was like 7th or 8th.
5th event Atlas Stones to a 49" platform. 60 second time limit. Stones were 175, 200, 225, 240, 265lbs. Was really nervous about this event. The guys who went before me only got 2 until the guy right before me got 4. I got the 1st 3 up very easy and the 4th wasn't much of a struggle. Had 30 seconds to get that 5th up, I got close but just couldn't finish it off. Got it lapped easy but just couldn't finish. My form just wasn't there. I was basically trying to curl it up, lol. I was able to muscle up 1st 4 but couldn't quite muscle up the last one. With some form practice I would of had it, lol. 3 guys ended up getting the 5th stone up. My time to the 4th stone was the fastest of the guys who got 4 so I ended up 4th in this event.
Had an absolute blast. I'm going to start training events on Saturdays down in Aurora at Colorado Pro. Next event is in mid-may, can't wait. Met Brian Shaw, guy is so massive, but he is super cool. He tried to give me some pointers on the stones and whatnot. His hands are huge.

Nice job at the contest, it sounds like you had a good time.
There is some gray area with regard to the Novice class - some promoters will only let individuals enter who have never done a strongman contests but others will let individuals enter who have not previously taken top three in a Novice class. The reason that there is some flexibility is that in some cases the weights for the open division may not be manageable for everyone and the promoters want to encourage more people to enter.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson fell short from adding another record to his mantle, failing to cross 2,000 receiving yards today against the Chicago Bears. He missed the mark by 36 yards.
It would have been the second major record in as many weeks for Johnson. Against the Atlanta Falcons last week, the Lions' receiver topped Jerry Rice's single season receiving record of 1,848 yards, which had stood since 1995. Entering Sunday's game, Johnson needed just 108 yards to eclipse the 2,000 yard mark -- which would have been a routine total given Johnson's season. He finished with 5 receptions for 72 yards, thanks in part to Matthew Stafford choosing the final game of the season to spread the ball around.
Johnson failed to have more than 100 yards in a game for only the fifth time this season. He amassed over 150 yards in another four games. In a disappointing Lions season, he was the bright spot, and even though he missed the mythic 2,000-yard mark, he still managed to join rarefied air where he'll be remembered as one of the greatest receivers of all time -- in only his sixth season.

Paraguay, or the Province of the Rio de la Plata, with the Adjacent Regions Tucamen and Santa Cruz de la Sierra
This map of Paraguay and the Rio de la Plata basin is the work of Willem Blaeu (1571-1638), the founder of a famous Dutch mapmaking dynasty. Blaeu studied astronomy, mathematics, and globe-making with the Danish scholar Tycho Brahe before establishing his mapmaking studio in Amsterdam. In 1633, he was appointed mapmaker of the Dutch East India Company. In 1635, together with his sons Joan and Cornelis, Blaeu published the Atlas Novus (New atlas), an 11-volume work consisting of 594 maps.
Colton's Peru and Bolivia
This 1855 map of Peru and Bolivia shows topographical features, cities, towns, forts, rapids, and rivers. National and regional boundaries are marked in pink, green, yellow, and blue. An inset map of Lima, the capital of Peru, appears in the lower-left-hand corner. In the upper right are the River Madeira, forming part of the border between Peru and Brazil, and the Amazon, the upper parts of which are known in Peru as the Marañón and in Brazil as the Solimões. A note indicates the navigability of the River Ucayali up ...
The Course of the River of the Amazons, Based on the Account of Christopher d'Acugna
Nicolas Sanson (1600-67) is considered by many to be the founder of the French school of cartography. Originally from Abbeville, he was also known as Sanson d'Abbeville. He was trained as a military engineer but became a prolific cartographer who produced over 300 maps. Around 1643, he began publishing maps, working with publisher Pierre Mariette. This 1680 map of the Amazon most likely is a reprint by his son Guillaume (1633-1703), who carried on the family firm after Nicolas's death. The account referred to in the title is ...
New and Precise Depiction of the Southern Part of America, Which Includes: Brazil, the Carribean, the New Kingdom of Guiana, Castilia del Oro, Nicaragua, the Antilles, and Peru: And Beneath the Tropic of Capricorn, Chile, the Rio de la Plato, Patagonia & the Straits of Magellan
This folding map of South America and the West Indies, printed on two separate sheets, with uncut margins, was engraved for the second edition of the fourth part of Hulsius' collection of voyages, which consists altogether of 26 parts.

In this second edition of the map, three islands have been inserted below the bottom border of the lower map, with the name "Francisci Draco Ins ...
An Account of a Voyage up the River de la Plata, and Thence over Land to Peru: With Observations on the Inhabitants, as Well as Indians and Spaniards, the Cities, Commerce, Fertility, and Riches of That Part of America
Acarete du Biscay was a Frenchman, possibly of Basque origin, about whom very little is known. In December 1657 he embarked from Cádiz, Spain for the Plate River region of South America, posing as the nephew of a Spanish gentleman to circumvent a ban by Spain on visits by foreigners to its New World possessions. In 1658 he traveled overland across the Argentine pampas to the silver mines of Potosí, located in present-day Bolivia. In 1672, Acarete published an account of this trip in his native French. A later version ...
A Current Description of the Province of the Society of Jesus in Paraguay with Neighboring Areas
Between 1609 and 1780, the Roman Catholic Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) established an autonomous Christian Indian state on the territory of present-day Paraguay, Uruguay, and parts of Argentina and Brazil. After unsuccessful efforts to Christianize the warlike Guaycurú Indians of northeastern Paraguay, the Jesuits concentrated on organizing the Guaraní Indians into a series of reducciones (reductions or townships), in which a kind of communal living was practiced. The system of reductions was an attempt to correct earlier abuses, in which the Paraguayan Indians were transformed into virtual slaves who ...

This photograph from the Corpus Christi festival in Cuzco, Peru, shows indigenous peoples carrying religious artifacts. The festival begins 60 days after Easter. Representatives from nearby churches take part in the main day procession, bearing statues of their patron saints in a procession to the city's main cathedral.

The photograph is from the collection of the Columbus Memorial Library of the Organization of ...

Fiesta "Huayno," a Folk Dance
This photograph shows a group of indigenous dancers in Peru performing a folk dance. The huayno is the most representative folk dance of the Andes. It combines pre-Colombian origins with later European influences, and encompasses dozens of regional variations. The dance is performed by couples who perform turns and movements featuring hops and a tap-like zapateo to mark time. The instruments used to accompany the huayno include the quena, charango, harp, and violin. The photograph is from the collection of the Columbus Memorial Library of the Organization of American States ...
Devil Dancer Mask
This photograph shows a scary mask used in the Festival of the Virgin of Carmen that takes place in the Peruvian town of Paucartambo every July.

The photograph is from the collection of the Columbus Memorial Library of the Organization of American States (OAS), which includes 45,000 photographs illustrative of life and culture in the Americas. Many of the photographs were ...
Religious Parade, Santa Rosa de Lima

Saint Rose was born in Lima on April 20, 1586, and died there on August 24, 1617. Known for her extreme piety, she was canonized in ...
"Pragmatica" on the Ten Days of the Year
This work is the first known South American imprint. It consists of a four-page edict, issued by King Philip II of Spain, decreeing the change from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. In order to bring the calendar back into line with the seasons, in February 1582 Pope Gregory XIII deleted ten days from the year 1582, so that October 4, 1582, of the Julian calendar was followed immediately by October 15, 1582, in the new Gregorian calendar. This work was produced in 1584 by Antonio Ricardo, an Italian typographer ...
A Voyage Round the World, Including an Embassy to Muscat and Siam in 1835, 1836, and 1837
In 1832, U.S. president Andrew Jackson, acting on the advice of Secretary of the Navy Levi Woodbury, dispatched Edmund Roberts as a "special agent of the government," empowered to negotiate treaties of amity and commerce with countries in Asia. The objective was to expand trade between these countries and the United States. Between early 1832 and May 1834, Roberts circumnavigated the globe. In the course of his journey, he negotiated treaties with the Sultan of Muscat (Oman) and the King of Siam (Thailand). Following his return to the United ...

This panoramic photograph of Lima, Peru, taken by an unknown photographer, probably dates from the 1870s. "Panoramic" photographs employ a variety of techniques to create a wide angle of view. This panoramic view is comprised of five photographs spliced together to provide a broader image than would be practical with a single photograph. Lima was founded by the Spanish explorer Francisco Pizarro in 1535. In the 16th and 17th centuries, it was the center of Spanish rule in South America. Today it is the largest city and capital of Peru.
Brazil, Bolivia and Peru
This hand-colored map of the northern part of South America originally appeared in A New General Atlas Exhibiting The Five Great Divisions of the Globe, published by John Grigg (1792-1864) in Philadelphia in 1829. It shows the still somewhat vague demarcation of the borders between countries in the interior of the continent. Grigg's atlas was based on the work of Conrad Malte-Brun (1755-1826), a Danish geographer who emigrated to France in 1799, where in 1803-07 he produced the six-volume Géographie mathématique, physique et politique de toutes les parties du ...

He was named bishop of Trujillo in 1778. He remained in Peru until 1791, when he was appointed archbishop of Bogotá. Known for founding towns, building schools, and his efforts to educate the Indians of Trujillo, Martínez Compañón also was responsible for the Codex Trujillo del Perú, a nine-volume compilation of more than 1,400 illustrations and ...

People ask me if this job is as fun as it looks, and I always have the same answer: yes!
Since joining GMT in 2006, assignments have taken me everywhere: live from Los Angeles on the set of Dancing with the Stars, to New York City where I was a guest correspondent on ABC's Good Morning America. I was even featured in two network Daytime dramas: All My Children and One Life to Live. I'm not a native Texan but like the bumper sticker says, my husband and I got here as fast as we could. My last name is of Dutch origin and is pronounced "Van-der-off" (I'm not sure why there's an extra "e" in it!). I'm a proud graduate of the American Musical and Dramatic Academy (AMDA) in New York City and actually began performing with the New York USO, entertaining US military forces and veterans at bases and hospitals. This was such a special time for me, and I work to feature American military people on GMT whenever possible. I also worked as a performer for the US Department of Defense entertaining American Armed Forces stationed overseas in countries such as Bosnia, Macedonia, Iceland, Germany and Croatia. There is no greater audience than our troupes! We traveled the war torn countries performing patriotic shows, bringing a bit of "home" with us and spent a number of holidays overseas, including the Fourth of July and Christmas. So many of the men and women hadn't seen their families for a year or more, and they were so appreciative. My time as a USO performer was unforgettable, and will always be remembered as some of the best years of my life. If you're a fan of children's books, you've probably heard this famous phrase: "Take chances, make mistakes, get messy!" I said that a lot when touring America as "Ms. Frizzle," the irrepressible science teacher from "The Magic School Bus." It was a blast: my costume featured bright red hair and some pretty way-out looks. Working on "The Magic School Bus" was an adventure, and a terrific program that continues to help children learn and love science.
In 2001 I took on a much different challenge when I was crowned Miss Connecticut USA, and became the state's representative at the Miss USA Pageant. I must say, although I didn't win the national title (not even close!) I loved the experience. It was a bit intense, however I have an incredible scrapbook of memories and remain great friends with several of my fellow contestants. Performance remains a big part of my life. I am signed with the Campbell Agency here in Dallas, and continue to do voiceovers and other commercial work. I also coach those who are in pursuit of an acting career! In Connecticut, I operated The Actors Academy, an acting school for children and adults. I also worked in casting for Mazzarella Productions, a children's production company.
Thanks for checking in -- and keep on watching Good Morning Texas to see where it might take me next!

Enough Talk! Jump in the Van! David Gordon Green's Approach to Making 'Prince Avalanche'
Here's a challenging question: How many months or years have you been sitting on your film project without making any significant headway? For some of us, myself included, the answer is "too many." We tend to do a whole lot of talking about making movies instead of actually making them, widening the chasm between conceiving a great idea and bringing that idea to fruition. In an interview for The Playlist, director of indie film Prince Avalanche, David Gordon Green, talks about how his "jump in the van and just do it" method helped him and his small crew begin shooting his "secret" film after less than 2 months of sitting on it.

Warning: Tips for secure mobile holiday shopping
I'm dating myself, but I remember when holiday shopping involved pouring through ads in the Sunday paper, placing actual phone calls from tethered land lines to research product stock and availability, and actually driving places to pick things up. Now, holiday shoppers can do all of that from a smartphone or tablet in a few seconds, but there are some security pitfalls to be aware of.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration has asked a federal appeals court to immediately suspend a judge's ruling that overturned the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy on gays. The administration says it wants the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit in San Francisco to take action.
The Obama administration says it is in favor of repealing the law, but that letting the ruling of U.S. District Judge Virginia Phillips go forward immediately would be a major problem for the military.
In its court filing Wednesday, the government said allowing Phillips' decision now "would create tremendous uncertainty about the status of service members who may reveal their sexual orientation in reliance on the district court's decision and injunction."

Philosophical Statement
Organizational Framework
The philosophy of the School of Nursing is consistent with the mission of the College of Health Sciences and the University. Incorporated into the philosophical statement of the School of Nursing are faculty beliefs reflective of the health and nursing needs of man and society. The philosophy statement, revised in 2002 and reviewed in 2008 follows.
The faculty believe:
A person is a unique individual of dignity and worth, holistic in nature with biological, psychological, social, cultural, spiritual and developmental dimensions. Perceptions, values and goals motivate a person to adopt health behaviors.
Throughout the life cycle, a person's health is influenced by their constant interaction with the environment. The environment is characterized by dynamically interacting internal and external components.
Health is comprised of wellness and illness dimensions with both subjective and objective components that are viewed from both the perspective of the client and the nurse.
Nursing is a profession that assists patients in developing adaptive responses to dimensions of health. Nursing practice is based on nursing knowledge with concepts integrated from biological, behavioral, and social sciences and incorporates technical, interpersonal, ethical, legal, leadership and scientific inquiry skills. The nurse utilizes critical thinking to develop therapeutic nursing interventions to promote, maintain, or restore health or support a peaceful death within a nursing process framework. Professional nursing practice is based upon accepted Standards of Practice. The nurse uses communication techniques to provide nursing care, patient education and leadership.
Education is an integral component of personal and professional growth and development. The student is viewed as a self-directed learner who is committed to life-long learning. Faculty view education as a process of continuous improvement enhanced by innovative techniques to support student development as a professional nurse.

Dear Whomever is in Charge of Customer Service for DirecTV:
All I wanted was to watch the game.
So I got out the ol' iPad and I fired up the app and I retrieved the password and I tried to sign in and nothing happened, so I called you guys and the robot lady answered and told me to OPRIMA NUMERO DOS if I wanted to conduct my business in Spanish, which I didn't, so I didn't and I said yes when the robot lady asked if I was a subscriber and I gave her my phone number when she asked for it and then she asked me to tell her what I wanted, and I tried to explain twice but she didn't get it, so I told her I had a question about League Pass and she gave me this long spiel about how I could buy League Pass, which I didn't need to do, since I already had it, so I asked the robot lady to connect me with technical support and she said she would and that's about when she hung up on me, so I called again and I went through the whole thing again and this time I got to a human being who listened to my problem and what I had done to solve it, expressed remorse, then told me to do the same things I had done, which had not worked the first time, and when I did and it didn't work again, this person transferred me to another person who also expressed remorse and then, reading from a manual, told me to do the thing I had done, which hadn't worked the first two times, and when I explained this, transferred me to a third person who dutifully expressed remorse and quickly concluded he could not help me and told me to contact the NBA.
By this point, the game was at halftime. I gave up.
So anyway, Mr. or Ms. Whomever is in Charge, here's the thing: Can I talk to a human being next time? I'll pay extra if you simply have the phone answered by someone with a pulse.
Not just you. I make the same offer to my cellphone company, my Internet provider, the electric company and the bank. I am willing to pay more if it means that when I call your company, my call will be answered by an actual, knowledgeable human being who will listen to my problem and solve it.
That doesn't seem much to ask. Once upon a time, it wasn't. But that was before technology made our lives simpler and more convenient. It was before the age turned distant and impersonal and human beings became cost inefficient. It was before someone got the bright idea to let robots answer the phone.
Meaning not just machines that use voice recognition software to misunderstand what you're asking for and route your call to the wrong department, but also those human robots who, once they do get your call, read mechanically from a script that requires them to express remorse for your problem, explain why they can't fix your problem, try to "up sell" you on some new service that does not address your problem, then ask if you are satisfied with how they have resolved your problem.
Those old movies that told us how machines would take over the world had it wrong. One does not see human skulls crushed beneath robot feet. No, one just sees human spirit crushed beneath robot customer service. One misses the days when companies employed actual people to serve actual people and if they were occasionally surly, clueless or unhelpful, they were at least real -- capable of acknowledging your presence.

Sort By :
My husband loves this, it is so easy and can be tinkered with to taste. We made it for a church lunch and it was a wow dish, no leftovers here!
Awesome! I used a bunch of leftover sauteed peppers & onions for the veggies and totally omitted the butter. Tasted fantastic.
~ Theresa
I followed ingredients and directions exactly as stated. Result: fabulous aroma, golden brown appearance, light texture, and perfect blend of flavors. We served today at a Teacher Appreciation Brunch. Everyone raved, and the pan is empty :)
Very good flavor BUT the cooking time is off. I've made it twice and it's taken twice as long to cook as stated. I just halved the recipe and doubled the cook time and bingo - great dish for brunch or dinner. I like to serve it with hashbrowns and fresh fruit. Delicious!
Very good casserole. I cut down the butter to only 1/2 a stick, not a full stick. I used zucchini that I had grated and frozen last summer. Worked well. Didn't miss the butter. Got a lot of compliments on the dish.

Exercise and breathing – the key to Mo Farah's Olympic gold success?
Tuesday, August 7th, 2012
Mo Farrah, and the Olympic 10km silver medalist America's Galen Rupp, have been undertaking a focussed training regime by their coach and mentor Alberto Salazar. Alberto best known for his performances in the New York City Marathons in the early 1980s and his American track records of 13:11.93 for 5,000 m (July 6, 1982 – Stockholm) and 27:25.61 for 10,000 m – (June 26, 1982 – Oslo), has become a legend in the middle- and long-distance disciplines. Training elite athletes at the Nike Oregon Project, Alberto is known for complete focus, detail and novel-training techniques. One of those was to improve the breathing efficiency, through the intercostal muscles, of his athletes using RespiBelt.
RespiBelt is a specially constructed compression belt which allows you to train your breathing and chest muscles during exercise by providing an adjustable load. We are all very familar with training our biceps, legs, abs, by doing exercises such as bicep curls, squats and crunches, but what we don't have, until now, is a way of training the inspiratory breathing muscles during exercise. Training our inspiratory muscles can improve our breathing efficiency, running economy, help with asthma, and make us use less energy. But please don't look at the product and think you can use any old elastic belt. The team at Progressive Sports Technologies have spent years developing the right tension in the elastic. If the tension is too high it can overload the muscles, too low and you don't get any benefit. If you get it just right, like in the RespiBelt, then you can achieve much better performance like the British Triathletes (wording from RespiBelt website):
"The first trial of early prototypes was performed with the support of British Triathlon and four of their TASS athletes over an 11 week period. The results of the training intervention proved very interesting. The participants significantly enhanced running economy measures, along with reduced sub-maximal oxygen utilisation and minute ventilation which was considered by British Triathlon scientists as being atypical of results expected due to habitual training adaptations. This prompted further investigation into the RespiBelt using a larger sample size with the addition of a control group. The second trial was performed with 12 competitive athletes over only a 4 week period. Additional measures were taken in addition to the measures previously investigated. All the measures showed positive changes compared to the control group who undertook the same training regime. Breathing endurance improved as did, sub-maximal oxygen consumption, % VO2max, sub-maximal minute ventilation and heart rate. Further improvements in running economy, respiratory frequency and minute ventilation were also present."
RespiBelt comes in 6 sizes that are derived by measuring your chest: X-Small – chest sizes 75 to 80cm; Small – chest sizes 81 to 88cm; Medium – chest sizes 89 to 96cm; L arge – chest sizes 97 to 106cm; and X-Large – chest sizes 107 to 118cm.
If you would like to purchase the best accessory for training breathing muscles then please click on this link to buy the RespiBelt.

I have never been one to label myself as "glamorous," but I do believe in taking the time to apply a little eye shadow and mascara once in a while.
My approach to makeup is largely driven by a desire to avoid frightening small children in public – and myself when I encounter a mirror. It is optional for day-to-day activities like going to work and meeting friends for coffee.
But putting it on for the sole purpose of going to the gym or hitting the trail for a morning run? Well, that's just ridiculous. Here's why:
1 Ain't nobody got time for that! Seriously y'all, it takes every shred of motivation I can possibly muster just to drag myself out of bed, find and put on clean clothes that hopefully kind of match, brush my teeth and get out the door. If I were to add any extracurriculars, such as makeup application and hair-styling, it's unlikely that I would ever make it to the gym ever again. So there's that.
2 Makeup is NOT sweat-proof. When I go to the gym or out for a run I typically work up a pretty healthy "glow." Profuse sweating is a highly effective means of makeup removal, and one that can often get messy and unattractive. Perhaps someone makes a fancier, more expensive variety of makeup that does not come off at the first tiny glimmer of sweat, I am not privy to such exotic luxuries.
3 Who's really going to notice anyway? It has been my (extremely general) observation that gym-goers are a rather self-absorbed bunch (at least while they are working out). Maybe they can't stop admiring their own beautiful biceps in the mirror, or they just want to get the workout over with so they can get out of the gym and on with their lives. But for the most part, people at the gym are pretty dang laser-focused on whatever it is that they are doing and nothing more. I know this to be true for myself, save for two specific scenarios in which I may momentarily divert my attention from the workout at hand: Canvassing the facility for attractive, non-obnoxious-looking guys, and pausing to look around and judge my fellow exercisers who wear makeup at the gym.
Yes, I confess to occasionally judging those gym makeup wearers: "I guess some of us come to the gym to work out, and some of us are here to draw attention to ourselves." "Anyone who still has every perfectly curled hair in place and no sign of runny mascara after an hour on the treadmill clearly isn't working hard enough." "This is the gym, a place were serious sweaty workouts happen, not a beauty pageant."
I know that all of this judging is totally lame, and that it is most likely rooted in nothing more than my insecurities about the embarrassingly low level of effort I put into how I look when venturing out in public. And really, going to the gym is always better than not going to the gym, and if a face full of makeup is the thing that gives you the drive and confidence to show up for a workout, well, I am here to fully support you in that!
Moving forward, I will do my best to be less judgmental of my fancily made-up gym-mates. Heck, maybe I'll even throw on a little eye shadow and lip gloss the next time I head to the gym just to see if it makes me feel more confident and fabulous. Don't hold your breath, though.

The robots are coming--and they want jobs. Here's what the experts say will happen by the year 2025.
University of Arizona Health Network, which includes two University of Arizona Medical Center campuses in Tucson, is talking with other networks about a possible partnership.
The university is not yet saying what that means.
UAHN issued a statement that it is in talks with Banner Health.
Banner operates 23 hospitals, including in Phoenix.
The entire statement reads:
"UAHN is in ongoing discussions with numerous health systems, including Banner, to explore opportunities for synergy and collaboration, particularly in areas where collaboration would enhance our missions of patient care, research and medical education."
According to the UAHN website, the network includes the UA Medical Center - University Campus, the UA Medical Center - Diamond Children's, the UA Medical Center - South Campus, about 40 clinics, a health plan division and the practice plan for physicians from the UA College of Medicine.
The University of Arizona Cancer Center does not fall under the UAHN umbrella.

A new jobs report released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that the national unemployment average dipped below 8 percent for the first time in 44-months, settling at 7.8 percent.
For the month of September, nonfarm employment rose by 114,000 jobs, according to the report. Of those jobs, 10,000 came from the public sector. The bureau also adjusted the July and August jobs figures by an additional 86,000.
The employment news was greeted with cautious optimism by an Obama administration that is eager to change the conversation from the President's widely panned performance at Wednesday's debate against Republican nominee Mitt Romney.
"While there is more work that remains to be done," blogged Alan Krueger, chairman of President Obama's council of economic advisers, "today's employment report provides further evidence that the U.S. economy is continuing to heal from the wounds inflicted by the worst downturn since the Great Depression."
Romney acknowledged the drop in unemployment at a rally in Abingdon, Va., Yahoo News reports, but stressed that the recovery is taking too long. He also pointed out the numbers don't reflect the number of people who have simply stopped looking for work.
It's too soon to know exactly how Pennsylvania employment measures up to the national numbers because the state report for September won't be released until October 18. However, as Department of Labor & Industry spokesperson Christopher Manlove points out, Pennsylvania has stayed equal to or below the national average for the past 70 consecutive months.
"Pennsylvania has an old and established economy with diverse industries," said Manlove. "We don't rely on just a few sectors to thrive, like Florida and California with housing or Michigan and the auto industry."
Another reason for Pennsylvania's slightly stronger performance in the job market is the more conservative hiring practices in the state, said Lori Hourigan, a vice president with Robert Half International, a staffing services company with offices in Philadelphia.
"The state as a whole tends not to overhire," said Hourigan. "A lot of other places tend to overstaff when times are good. Pennsylvania was hurt just like everybody else when the recession hit, but there was not as much to cut as those other states."
In the suburban Philadelphia area, Hourigan said, job growth has been especially strong in the technology, health care and finance industries. Center City hospital systems have expanded into surrounding communities, such as Einstein Medical Center's recently opened branch on Germantown Pike in East Norriton. These expansions have created more opportunities for nurses and doctors looking to get of the nursing homes and into a hospital setting, Hourigan said.
"In the financial sector, there are not as many college graduates majoring in accounting and finance," said Hourigan. "At the same time, more people are retiring from that industry, creating a big demand."
With winter approaching, Hourigan predicts more gains in seasonal employment as part-time and stay at home workers look to supplement their income.

You can expect the polls to be crowded Tuesday across Missouri.
Election officials are predicting more voters will go to the polls today than any other time in history.
That will include a very large turnout in Scott County.
Along with the Presidential election, there are several issues that will generate enthusiasm such as the U.S. Senate race, the Governor's race, and Proposition B, which could raise the tobacco tax.
But Scott County Clerk, Rita Milam says while other issues are very important, it's the guys at the top of the ballot that generate high turnout.
"I estimate 75 percent in Scott county," said Milam. "I read in the paper where the Secretary of State said 72 percent, so I'm sure that's what the average state wide came out," she added.
If voter turnout is that high, it will set a new record in the state.
In 2008, 2.9 million people voted in Missouri, or 64 percent.
So anything over 70 percent will guarantee more than 3 million votes cast for the first time in state history.

Double dip for golfer Simon Dyson
12:04pm Saturday 15th February 2014 in Sport
DESPITE a surging run of four birdies in the space of six holes, Simon Dyson was ruled out of the business half of the Africa Open.
The switch from the Middle East to South Africa has been far from profitable for the York-born ace.
He rounded off the desert section of the European Tour with successive top 20 finishes and more than 40,000 euros in prize money.
But that brace has been followed by a double dip as his bid for the Africa Open at the East London Club went the way of last week's Joburg Open, where he missed the midway cut.
Dyson posted a healthier two-under-par 69 yesterday to follow on from his first round 72. He mixed five birdies with three bogeys, four of the nap hand carded in the last six holes of yesterday's inward nine – but ultimately to no avail.
The runaway overnight leader was Ricardo Santos of Portugal who was 14-under after rounds of 62 and 66.
