Potholed road in Hyndburn 'like minefield'
1:43pm Wednesday 5th February 2014 in News By Michael Morrison, Hyndburn reporter
PARENTS have been advised to walk their children to school to avoid a potholed road which has been branded a 'minefield'.
Complaints have been lodged with the county council about a section between Winckley Road and Chequers in Clayton-le-Moors which run alongside All Saints Church of England Primary School.
The road, which has been slammed as 'dangerous', is unadopted which means it is not maintainable at public expense.
It means residents on the street could be forced to cough up the cash if they want it repaired.
Mental health worker at Blackburn with Darwen Council, Mark Nicholson, said he often uses the road to walk his 10-year-old daughter Lily Rose to and school.
The 45-year-old, from Barn Meadow Crescent in Rishton said: "It's really bad. It's like it's had some landmines go off in the middle of it. It's been like that for years. It's dangerous. People could fall or hurt their ankles.
"I complain every time I pick my daughter up. I called the county council and they did not do anything. They said to knock on somebody's door and to ask them who owns the road because it's private."
Clayton-le-Moors councillor, Tim O'Kane, said the section of road was unadopted and not the responsibility of the highways department at the county council.
The Labour councillor said: "It's unfortunate but there's very little that can be done in cases like this.
"You can have an unadopted road with around 10 to 15 residents, and then if they want sometime doing, an engineer gives them a price which they usually can't afford."
A school spokesman said: "We are aware that, when Winckley Road ends and becomes Chequers, it's unadopted and we know about the state of it.
"When it rains, there are a lot of puddles and the depth of the potholes are disguised by the water.
"The school promotes healthy living and exercise, so parents could park further away and walk with their children, which would avoid the road."
Lancashire County Council's highways manager for Hyndburn, Oliver Starkey, said: "Chequers is an unadopted road, which means that the landowner is responsible."

When each council is having make drastic cuts to their budgets shouldn't some of the moneys collected be used toward solving problems such as these which are problem on both adopted and un-adopted roads? It's about time the councils grew a spine in dealing with their lords and masters!

Pumped your oil futures
Let's just be friends so I can pump you again. I just pumped you.
Happy Independence Day! Hope you're having a safe & Happy 4th of July!!
I pumped dallfo, too. He is sitting right below me on the front page.
This is my final notice!
I only pump friends. Look at the top three stories. Those people are my friends.
You might want to buy gas before it goes up at the pump more.
"You can bet that will cause an increase in oil and gasoline prices." It already has! Take a look here and see the price of oil and gas over the last few days. I knew this would happen long ago: http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=RBN14.NYM+Interactive#symbol=RBN14.NYM;range=5d Then go here for oil: http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=CLN14.NYM+Interactive#symbol=CLN14.NYM;range=5d It hasn't hit at the pump, YET, BUT IT WILL! Might want to get some now while it's lower.
I only pump friends.
Congratulations on having the tenacity to post for 300 consecutive days! Have a good Memorial Day weekend. Warren :)

Blog submitted by Barbara A. DeBuono, MD, MPH
Barbara A. DeBuono, MD, MPH is President and CEO of ORBIS
Cost-effective analysis is a measure that is discussed frequently in the context of healthcare in the United States. This process compares the costs and the benefits of a healthcare-related intervention. In the field of eye care it is clear that the benefits outweigh the cost.
On World Sight Day, I had the opportunity to attend a VISION 2020 congressional briefing in Washington DC with other eye care partners and government officials. The theme of the event was Cost Effectiveness of Blindness Prevention Activities. The event featured a presentation by Dr. Kevin Frick, professor at John Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health and an expert in calculating cost-effectiveness of health care.
We all know that the cost of blindness and visual impairment in the United States is enormous. According to Dr. Frick, in the United States a blind individual aged 40 or older spends an extra $2587 on medical care every year. In 2008, the estimated United States societal medical cost of all blind individuals was $2.7 billion.1 Imagine what this would look like on a global scale.
When we apply these factors to the developing world, this cost goes beyond an economic and financial burden. Yet, we do not have strong data and research to support this assumption. What we do know is that blindness and visual impairment impact quality of life. In these communities, these conditions can hinder an individual's ability to gain an education, gain employment and contribute to family financial stability. Ultimately, this can trap a family in a cycle of poverty. Studies have shown for example that individuals with cataract are more likely to be poor than those with normal vision.2
There has been little research to examine the correlation between blindness and poverty. ORBIS and partners in South Africa are currently working to help fill this gap. Using results of a household survey conducted by the South African War on Poverty Initiative, ORBIS and partners collected data regarding eye care in poor South African households. This will be followed by an analysis of the relationship between factors such as disability, access to healthcare and blindness. The results will be shared with the South African government for planning and advocacy purposes. Examining blindness in the context of poverty can serve as a powerful advocacy tool for increased budget and attention to eye care services.
This is the data and information we need to put eye health on the global agenda. At ORBIS we hope to continue to work with global partners and use such data to advocate for increased eye care services and blindness prevention globally.

Manchester United have captured their first win of the season, but they needed a big save from David de Gea to do it, and they might have lost one of their best players to injury in the process. The Red Devils held on for a 3-2 win over Fulham at Old Trafford on Saturday, but Wayne Rooney took studs to the knee in stoppage time and suffered a nasty gash. Time will tell if he simply needs stitches or if his injury is much worse.
Damien Duff kicked off the scoring in an exciting match, turning in a Bryan Ruiz free kick in the 3rd minute. It didn't take long for Robin van Persie, in the lineup for Rooney, to respond. He netted his first goal as a United player in the 10th minute with a fantastic first-time strike, equalizing for the Red Devils.
The rest of the first half was dominated by Manchester United, and they carried a 3-1 lead into halftime. Their second goal was scored by Shinji Kagawa, who scored a tap-in after Mark Schwarzer blocked a shot in the 35th minute. In the 41st minute, Rafael da Silva headed in a lofted cross by Ashley Young.
Fulham were much better in the second half, but they needed a gift from United to get back into the match. Nemanja Vidic made things interesting in the 64th minute when he turned in a terrible own goal. Alex Ferguson decided to play some risky tactics and attempt to hold onto his one-goal lead, a decision that eventually paid off.
Rooney came on as a substitute in the 68th minute and suffered his injury right as stoppage time began, when Hugo Rodellega accidentally stepped on his knee. He had a massive bloody gash that had to be taped up, and he was removed from the game on a stretcher.
The Cottagers almost found a 95th minute equalizer, but De Gea made a very good reaction save on a close-range header at the death to seal the win for United.

A new study reveals that practicing a technique called mindfulness can reduce cortisol in the body.
A new study adds to a growing body of evidence that mindfulness meditation could be the elixir to the ailments of modern life. The latest study finds that focusing on the present — or being mindful — can lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
"This is the first study to show a direct relation between resting cortisol and scores on any type of mindfulness scale," said Tonya Jacobs, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California Davis Center for Mind and Brain. Findings were published this week online in the journal Health Psychology.
The new study is the latest to come from the Shamatha Project, a comprehensive controlled study of the effects of meditation training on mind and body. The project has drawn the attention of both scientists and Buddhist scholars including the Dalai Lama, who has endorsed the project.
In the new study, the team used a questionnaire to measure aspects of mindfulness among a group of 57 volunteers before and after an intensive, three-month meditation retreat. They also measured cortisol levels in the volunteers' saliva.
At the retreat, the participants learned mindfulness skills such as breathing techniques and "observing the nature of consciousness," the researchers explained. Individuals who scored high on the mindfulness questionnaire also had low levels in cortisol, both before and after the retreat. Subjects whose mindfulness score increased after the retreat also showed a decrease in cortisol.
Another recent study published in the journal Brain, Behavior & Immunity in 2012 finds that mindfulness meditation can help older adults battle feelings of loneliness while also boosting health. A prior study also found that mindfulness meditation, along with moderate exercise, was linked to a reduction in the severity of colds and flu during winter.

What's really being processed?
Anyone living and eating in the modern world, and paying even a little attention, knows that we are a very long way from eating food, not too much, mostly plants. Not only does our food come mostly in bags, boxes, bottles, jars and cans — but mostly, it isn't really food. It's food stuff. It doesn't come from an animal or plant; it's made in a plant. It rolls off an assembly line.
That seems a bit ominous on its own, but of course the plot is much thicker than that. As told recently by Michael Moss, that food is not processed haphazardly — it's processed to very clear specifications. It's processed to be addictive. We may have thought "betcha' can't eat just one!" was a clever marketing slogan, but it's clearly been much more than that for years. It was a performance measure for Big Food's R&D departments. If we could only eat just one, somebody probably lost their job.
This story has been out there for years. But even as we were hearing about it, we just kept succumbing to it — as did our kids. And the result is that fully a third of the calories in the typical American diet come from… junk. For our kids, it may be as much as half.
We are buying junk. We are eating junk. We are feeding our children… junk! It's almost unbelievable. Of course we love our children and grandchildren. But we all look on passively as they derive construction material for those precious bodies from… junk.
Are we really supposed to be OK with this?
What it all really means is that we have long since left the era of processed food in the rearview mirror of cultural inertia. We are now well into the realm of processing… people. We are processing you, and me. We are processing our kids. How else could the notion that "junk" — which would not be suitable to build a home, make a dress, fuel a car — is a legitimate food group ever have been established?
For food to be addictive by design, it can't be only the food that's being processed. Addiction, and every variation on that theme, resides in our nervous systems. There is no question: We are being processed. Our taste buds are being co-opted. Our preferences are being programmed.
Our cultural definition of food, itself, is being processed. I remember one twilight at a gas station not too long ago. I was filling my tank, staring pretty vacantly as one does under such circumstances. I saw a young man come out of the mini-mart with a big bag of some kind of processed snack food. And by that fading light, I could have sworn whatever it was glowed in the dark. And yet, he had been conditioned to think of that as food.
Folks, if it glows in the dark — step away from the box, and nobody will get hurt.
Food has long been processed — initially for some good. Cooking and preservation methods are processing of a sort, and they have helped make food safer and more digestible for the most part. But over recent years, processing has run amok, and done a whole lot of ill.
But in this era, the processing of the people eating the food, the ills are greatly compounded. And we can tally them up in epidemics, in years of life, in life from years, and in dollars changing hands.
I recall a vintage (original series) Star Trek episode. The Enterprise was called in to help get critically-needed medication to a population suffering a planet-wide plague. The medication controlled the condition — but when doses wore off, the condition would resurge, up to the point of death.
What we learned over the course of that hour of science fiction drama is that the plague was no plague — it was an addiction, created by a cartel that provided the treatment. In essence, they addicted everyone to their drug — and then pretended the drug was a treatment for a condition that just happened. Our heroes from Star Fleet outed the conspirators, and as ever, saved the day.
I can't help but think: Where is Star Fleet now? We have epidemics of obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases — fueled by ever more calories, sugar, salt, atherogenic fats, and processed starch. But we need that sugar, salt, starch, bad fat and calories — because we've been conditioned to crave them. So we "treat" our condition with the very stuff that created it in the first place, and created epidemic chronic disease as a byproduct. Big Food treats our cravings; Big Pharma treats the rest. We translate years of life and life in years into dollars, and hand them over. It's all just part of the… process.
But it doesn't need to be! Not anymore than that imaginary Star Trek population needed to take the drug that caused their disease. They could wean off of it — and so can we. We can send our taste buds to rehab! We can free ourselves of "The Process."
And to that end, my associates and I are proud to offer up the second in the "UnJunk Yourself" music video series: "The PROCESS." We want you, and your kids, to know what's going on. We want you to know that they've been processing food — and now they're processing you! And we want to put a stop to it.
Awareness may not be complete knowledge, but it's a start. Knowledge may not be all we need for power, but it is a prerequisite. So please watch, and share widely. Let's create awareness — along with some righteous indignation — among kids and adults alike.
The benefits of eating real food are well established, and profound. We can break our addiction to junk — and learn to love food that loves us back. We can get to a place of less processed food, but only if we wake up to a contrived reality we have tolerated for far too long — and start unprocessing ourselves. Welcome to the real world!
Tomatoes, rich in lycopene, are part of a healthful anti-inflammatory diet. Eating fresh, unprocessed food can help protect against disease.
While inflammation is the body's natural response to injury, chronic inflammation can lead to health problems — but here are four anti-inflammatory foods that can help minimize the damaging effects.
"The inflammation process has one goal: to respond immediately to detect and destroy the toxic material in damaged tissues before it can spread throughout the body," said Dr. Lauren Whitt of the University of Alabama in a March 22 release from the university. "The trouble with inflammation occurs when the defense system gets out-of-control and begins to destroy healthy tissue, causing more damage than the original issue."
Being overweight is known to increase inflammation in the body, which researchers say can lead to increased risks of heart attack or stroke. Prior research from Johns Hopkins University (November 2012) in the US has found that low-fat and low-carbohydrate diets can reduce inflammation.
Whitt added that the right anti-inflammatory foods are one way of targeting the problem. Here are a few items to consider adding to your shopping list:
Citrus fruits: vitamin C and vitamin E are essential antioxidants
Dark, leafy greens: high in vitamin K
Tomatoes: the fruit's red pigment, lycopene, is a potent antioxidant
Wild-caught salmon: contains a rich concentration of omega-3 fatty acids
"Eating to minimize inflammation doesn't have to be an overwhelming task," she said. "Take baby steps by incorporating leafy greens into a salad at lunch, or add a piece of whole fruit to your breakfast."
In addition, Whitt recommended eating more foods straight from the farm, as well as fewer processed and fried foods. Doing so may reduce the need for some medications, she said.
People "are constantly on the lookout for a quick-fix, so when our immune systems kick into overdrive, we would generally prefer to pop a pill and keep moving," Whitt added. "But if we focus on our diets, we can alleviate the need for the anti-inflammatory medications in many cases."

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WECT) - Building a house out of straw might sound like something out of a nursery rhyme, but straw bale house building is a construction technique that is gaining more attention from sustainable home builders because of some distinct advantages over conventional methods.
Straw bale house construction is just one of the sustainability-related topics that was presented by students at Cape Fear Community College's Sustainability Technologies program.
Thirteen graduating students from the program showcased a number of special projects dealing with energy efficiency, sustainability, and green building technology on Saturday.
This year's event featured a diverse group of projects including the results of an investigation of the plastics recycling industry, straw bale home construction and an industrial energy audit.
CFCC's Sustainability Technologies program is a two-year associate's degree program designed to meet the challenges of the new energy economy.

Rosslyn Park prepare to entertain Tynedale
9:00pm Tuesday 16th October 2012 in Sport By Tim Ashton, Sports Editor
Rosslyn Park head coach Jan Bonney is expecting a tough battle when Tynedale come to Priory Lane this weekend.
However, Bonney says Tynedale are similar in style to Macclesfield – currently bottom of National League One – who Park beat 30-25 on Saturday, a result which stands them in good stead in their hunt for a fifth consecutive win.
The only down-side to the win at Macclesfield was an injury to Richard Boyle, who had his two front teeth knocked out, although Bonney says he should be back for the Tynedale clash.
Bonney said: "Tynedale are very similar to Macclesfield, they have a tough pack and are more than capable of scoring.
"Although they have been losing, they have been outscoring opponents in terms of tries. They lost to Coventry but scored four tries to their two.
"Our defence and discipline has got to be good. I know what to expect, we just have to make sure we do our jobs."
On Macclesfield, Bonney said: "After we secured our bonus point in the second half we took our foot off the pedal, but they are fighting for their lives and they kept on going."
Park had to come from behind to beat Macclesfield after conceding an early converted try.
However, tries from Hugo Ellis, Steve Parsons, Ed Lewis-Pratt and Dom Shabbo turned the scores around, helped in no small part by 10 points off Sam Katz's boot.
Bonney added: "We can see there are no easy games in the league, but we want to keep pushing, keep making sure we stay in touch at the top. But we can't look too far ahead."

The farm houses mostly Reds or Greys looking like full brothers. Usually, if you see one, you have seen them all. Besides their Asils, the reds and greys have proven to be superior fowls. The old grand Bobby Manziel Sr was able to acquire that good family of Regular Grey marked as "4 Webber� line from the Big Red. This particular family of Greys marked as the 4 Webber, was noted for their deep gameness and good cutting family, that only went to a few selected individuals including Harold Brown etc. This was used as their foundation. Back in the good old days growing up, Paul, Bobby and brother Nolan followed their father Bobby Sr, who had the greatest trainers available. They had the opportunity to watch Duke Hulsey, J.D. Perry, Roy Gray, Jake Engel, Max Thaggard, Everett Bishop, Russell Bowdoin and others. All of these notable men at one time or another were in Tyler, TX training cocks for mains and derbies for Bobby Sr. These has been the education that has put the Manziels in the win columns for a number of years.

The 2013 M5 joins Simon's garage which currently features the C63 AMG Black Series, Ferrari F458, Ferrari 599, 911 GT2, CLK63 AMG, Abarth 500, and Rolls Royce.
Check out photos of the epic collection inside.

The Community Candidate Concept: What Makes a Good Candidate?
by mole333, Wed Aug 16, 2006 at 03:57:54 PM EDT
I don't buy any of those. I do get excited about candidates. They do not tend to be the ones who are supported by big money interests, and they are not always lawyers, but they are the candidates who are smart, articulate, and good on the issues. But there is one thing more that really makes a candidate kick ass. Dedication to the community. In some ways this may be the thing that can break through racial, cultural and political divides, because a candidate who proves him or herself to the community can get broad support: black and white, rich and poor, liberal and moderate. I want to discuss just such candidates.

So this morning i read lamont Peterson signed with golden boy. This is significant because as most of you I'm sure have heard or assumed lamonts old promoter couldn't get a decent purse bid to attract big fights. Also because after the Lucas fight Saturday at the post fight conference dlh promised Lucas bigger fights. I'm thinking gbp is gonna match them up for lamonts title which I think is a helluva fight.
What's everyone else's thoughts/predictions?

I'm just glad that this dude (and hopefully his brother) got his business together. That free agent stuff wasn't for him, and the PED stuff made it worse.
I wont lie and say that I didn't see Bob snatching up Lamont and his brother. Truthfully, I thought Bob was gonna play damage control with the PED issue, and get Lamont into one of those 2Pac & Deathrow Records-type of contracts. Lol

Backpacker Magazine – Online Exclusive
Stay warm with the Arc'teryx Kappa SV Hoody, Marmot Torrid, REI Ladro Hoodie, and Solstice Cool Ruler.
Misc. | Baselayers | Insulation | Shells
REI Ladro Hoodie
Women testers found this highly packable, lightweight fleece jacket the perfect take anywhere layer, whether it was on a day-hike in Arizona's Kachina Peaks Wilderness or a week-long backpacking trip in Utah's Grand Gulch. Made from Polartec Wind Pro hardface fleece, the Ladro sheds wind and light rain with its smooth exterior but the brushed interior insulates and feels like velvet against the skin. Testers reported staying warm when wearing the Ladro over a baselayer on mountain hikes in 40-degree F temps with icy winds gusting at 30 miles per hour. But they also said the jacket was breathable when humping a pack uphill. A snug-fitting hood with tall collar adds warmth and protects the chin, neck and head from chilly breezes. Fleece lined hand warmer pockets and a bottom drawcord hem boost the cozy factor. Flat lock stitching on shoulder seams prevent chafing under a pack and thumb loops keep the sleeves in place. The Ladro's smooth exterior along with a trim cut through the sleeves and torso make the jacket easy to layer under a shell.
$99; women's XS-XL; 17 oz. (w's M). (800) 426-4840; rei.com.
Solstice Cool Ruler
After a winter of hard labor hiking, skiing and climbing in the Colorado Rockies, the Cool Ruler emerged a favorite among a dozen insulated jackets tested for its durability and high warmth to weight ratio. The hooded Primaloft puffy was comfortably layered under a shell during below freezing temps and worked well as an in-camp parka when conditions hovered just above freezing. Testers reported the fit was "fantastic" with tapered sleeves that allowed for layering but were not bulky and a snug fitting, cinchable hood that added significant warmth on cold nights in camp. A bottom hem draw cord also helped seal in warmth. Despite being repeatedly stuffed into a tiny wad at the bottom of a pack, the Cool Ruler's insulation stayed in like-new condition during five months of hard use. The 30-denier polyester rip-stop shell fabric also held up to bushwacking and abrasion against rocks but it did suffer a few pin-prick size holes, not surprisingly, from wayward campfire cinders.

LUCAS COUNTY (WTOL) - It's nearly June and the director of the Lucas County Health Department says lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever should be on your mind.
Since ticks are carriers of both conditions, Dr. David Grossman says protect your dogs.
"If they do bring it home, they are your pet. You can get them from that," Grossman said in a news conference Friday afternoon. He confirmed that one dog already has died in Lucas County this year due to Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.
Campers at Maumee Bay State Park told WTOL 11 that they are staying alert this weekend since they came across many tick infested areas in the park last year. They told us three tick landed on one of their dogs. Eight to ten landed on another.
"She was crying over it," camper Chuck Poole said about his three year old pup. He said it took him up to two hours to remove all of the ticks with a pair of tweezers.
The Health Department has conducted tick surveys in parks like Oak Openings this year and other highly wooded areas. The results of those surveys were not readily available.
Grossman says ticks should not be twisted off the body or burned. He said the remover should protect his hands with a towel and pull the tick straight off the body.
Campers say they'll also be protecting themselves this weekend by wearing long sleeves.

Man accused of hitting woman held without bailJuly 02,2013Domestic suspect held without bail
BENNINGTON An East Road man was ordered held without bail after being accused of punching a woman and knocking her out during an argument on Sunday.
Robert G. Bourn, 45, of Bennington, pleaded innocent in Bennington criminal court on Monday to a felony count of first-degree aggravated domestic assault and a misdemeanor count of domestic assault.
In an affidavit, Officer Robert Murawski, of the Bennington Police Department, said police were called to an East Road home on Sunday around 9:45 p.m.
Murawski said he spoke with a woman who said she had argued with Bourn on Sunday. She accused Bourn of hitting her in the face three times.
The woman said she threw a lamp and a television remote at Bourn to get him to leave the room but said neither hit him. She also said she bit Bourn after he grabbed her by the chin and forced her against the wall.
Following the bite, Bourn hit her with his fist and knocked her unconscious, she told police. She said she woke up while he was dragging her by the hair into another room.
Police said Bourn denied hitting the woman but declined to give police a statement. According to the affidavit, Bourns blood alcohol content after his arrest was 0.170 percent, more than twice the legal limit of 0.08 percent for driving in Vermont.MORE IN This Just InTOWNSHEND — A 26-year-old Townshend man shot his off-again, on-again girlfriend late...

Unzicker new Alliance Superintendent
The Alliance School Board has selected current Kimball Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Troy Unzicker, as its next Superintendent.
The board approved the hiring of Unzicker during its regular meeting Monday night, by a 6-0 vote.
Unzicker, a 1982 Gering High graduate, obtained his doctorate in December. Unzicker was a recently a finalist for the Gering Superintendent of Schools position.
The Alliance Public Schools has seen a reduction in state aid over the past three years, and Unzicker says Kimball faced a loss of over $2 million in state aid, forcing the district to set priorities in spending. He says there were some reductions in programs, but not one of them were eliminated and there were no staff reductions.
Unzicker believes that communicating with staff is important, as well as being involved in the community.
"Talking to patrons is necessary in order to gauge how the district is doing, what the different pockets of the community feel are important, and to get everyone going in one direction for the benefit of students," he said.
Unzickerâs professional experiences include serving as a teacher of North Loop Scotia, where he also coached football, boysâ basketball, and track. He was also a secondary principal in Mitchell, where he oversaw grades 7-12. Unzicker has been the Kimball Superintendent for seven years.
He also is a veteran of the U.S. Air Force. He and his wife, Susan, have a daughter, Tabitha, a high school Junior, who is also a three-sport athlete.

Bay Area journalist JR Valrey, the voice behind Block Report Radio on KPFA and associate editor of SF Bay View, known as the Minister of Information, reports vital news about the struggle against oppression. In the 31 interviews in his new book, "Block Reportin'," he shows what he calls the "big gap between what is going on in the world and what is being reported. I want to inspire people to become their own media and to truly speak on behalf of the people." Meet JR at his first book signing Saturday, March 19, 6:30 p.m., at Marcus Books, 3900 Martin Luther King Jr. Way, Oakland.

The LA Galaxy have replied to that early semi-scare by mounting an interesting attack of their own, which eventually breaks down when a cross from the left is cut out. However, it's the Houston Dynamo with the next shot - Corey Ashe managed to weave his way through the entire midfield (beating David Beckham one on one something like fifty eight times in the process) before scuffing a tame shot that Josh Saunders could easily retrieve.
After Saunders gathered, the Galaxy promptly marched right back up the pitch, with Sean Franklin and Landon Donovan combining to earn a corner, and from said corner Adam Cristman found himself with a free header six yards out. Fortunately for the Dynamo, he made a mess of it, heading well wide. That was really appalling defending from Houston, who've got to do better on set pieces when Beckham is the one delivering them. They do a beter job on the next couple of dead balls, but Bobbie Boswell has picked up a yellow card in the process after a deliberate handball.
We'll have live coverage of LA Galaxy vs. Houston Dynamo in our MLS Cup Final 2011 StoryStream. For more on the two teams, check out Houston Dynamo blog Dynamo Theory and Los Angeles Galaxy blog LAG Confidential. For more on the entire world of soccer, check out SB Nation Soccer.

Tree Stand Safety
"First thing, get a tree stand that's safe. There are some out there, older ones you won't want to fool with because they aren't as safe as the new ones. There are two options, you can have a lock on stand, which is permanently attached with chains or straps, or you can climb, a lot of folks prefer climbers."
That's what I use, and it's done me just fine for years. But I always make sure the straps are in good condition and the cables aren't rusted. That's important. I also always go out and scout out a good tree before hunting season starts.
"Next you want to find a tree, you don't want to find one that has broken limbs in it, you don't want to find a soft bark one like a pine tree because when the tree stand bites in, it can slip out. You also want to stay away from hard barks like hickory trees because the teeth won't bite into it with a climber." says Payne.
So you have your stand and have picked out a safe tree with a good field of vision. You're almost ready.
"Most important of everything, always have your harness on and climb with it attached to the tree. Climbing down, have it attached. The two key times, when they reach the top they fall and when they climb down they fall, these are the two danger zones." says Payne.
In fact, it's a good idea to just attach your harness before you climb up and never take it off until you're down. We want you safe out there!

Related Stories
Our sources around the NFC are hearing the following whispers:
• Bears WR Devin Hester has only one catch in the past three games and he had zero targets in each of the past two games. He's on pace for 35 receptions, which would be the fewest he has had in a season since 2007. Hester still has a role on offense, but it has become more limited in recent weeks, and, similar to what transpired toward the end of last season, it appears the Bears will have him focus on returning kicks more than making catches for the remainder of the season.
• The Vikings could be in line for a top-two draft pick, but the way-too-early word we hear is that they could be in line to trade down should they land that high of a choice. Quarterbacks once again could be the hot commodity in the 2012 draft, and the Vikings believe they are set at the position with Christian Ponder. Meanwhile, the team has several other needs and could benefit by adding multiple picks, especially with major changes to the roster on the horizon.
• Don't be surprised if Packers undrafted rookie RB Brandon Saine adds an unexpected boost down the stretch. Saine, who had 10 snaps against the Lions in Week 12, has proven to be a lot more physical than he was in college. Extremely smart with good hands out of the backfield, word is he could push Ryan Grant for touches in the coming weeks.
• The Lions have elected to place second-year RB Jahvid Best on injured reserve because of a concussion, the club announced Nov. 25. The move is expected to become official next week. The loss of Best, along with the ankle injury to Kevin Smith, who quickly emerged as the featured back after his return to the club in November, leaves the Lions again to potentially have to lean upon Maurice Morris and Keiland Williams for contributions in the running game if Smith were to miss any time. Best and rookie Mikel LeShoure were expected to be the Lions' RB tandem this season, but injuries dashed those plans. "From the outset, we have been appropriately cautious and have followed all medical protocol with respect to Jahvid's injury," Lions head coach Jim Schwartz said in a statement issued by the club on Nov. 25. "We look forward to his continued improvement and eventual return to the field."
• The Cowboys might be without FB Tony Fiammetta, who did such a good job opening holes for RB DeMarco Murray, for the rest of the season. Fiammetta has been listed as having an "illness," but our sources believe Fiammetta could be suffering from concussion-like symptoms, which were a problem this August in camp with the Panthers. The Cowboys have used TE John Phillips as a replacement in the backfield at times for Fiammetta, so it's an area of concern.
• The fact that Brandon Hughes, claimed off the Giants' practice squad last month, stands ahead of Curtis Marsh, the team's third-round pick in April on the Eagles' CB depth chart is a bit eye-opening. The Eagles are not down on Marsh, who will be a contributor in the dime package with Nnamdi Asomugha out, to the point of being worried if he ever can play. But it does show how far he must come to be ready for regular duty.
• The Giants are very worried about their OL depth after OLT Will Beatty's retina surgery and with ORT Kareem McKenzie's back acting up. They might have to turn to Stacy Andrews and Kevin Boothe to fill starting roles, and if they have to go deeper than that it could turn ugly quickly.
• The Redskins haven't just elevated RB Evan Royster from the practice squad as a reward for his hard work — per our sources, they plan to use him. Royster was the team's sixth-round pick this year, and though he did not make the roster out of training camp, there were enough skills evident for the team to believe he was worth developing. Now, with the run game struggling, Royster should get a crack at getting some handoffs.
• TE Jimmy Graham has become Saints QB Drew Brees' go-to guy this season, but the player that led New Orleans in receiving four of the past five seasons, WR Marques Colston, is back to playing his very best after a rough start. Colston missed only two games after breaking his collarbone in Week One, making a quick recovery from the injury, but it took him another week or two to get his bearings. He's rounding into top form as the Saints get ready for the final stretch of the regular season and he prepares to become a free agent for the first time in his career.
• The Buccaneers gave C Jeff Faine, a team captain, assurances that he would be back with the team for the 2011 season after he missed half the 2010 season with injuries. The front office might have been tempted to go with a younger, cheaper option at center, like Jeremy Zuttah, who is the starting left guard this season, but we hear the Bucs are happy with Faine's performance this season. It will be more expensive to keep him around for another season, though. His salary is due to increase from $4.57 million this season to $5.93 million in 2012.
• The Falcons demoted ORG Garrett Reynolds after their bye in Week Eight, replacing him in the starting lineup with Joe Hawley, but we hear the Falcons have not given up on Reynolds. Hawley filled in at center when Todd McClure missed time early this season, and Hawley is the heir apparent to McClure, who will be a free agent after the season. Reynolds beat out Mike Johnson for the starting job at right guard in training camp and another battle between the two could play out next year if McClure doesn't return.
• With Dan Williams out for the rest of the season with a broken arm, the Cardinals will depend on the combination of veteran free-agent addition Nick Eason and sixth-round rookie David Carter to share the load at nose tackle. "Carter has been every bit as good as Williams this season when he's been in there," one daily team observer said. "He's smart and powerful and plays with good technique. He thinks he should have been drafted a lot earlier, and you really have to wonder why he didn't play more at UCLA."
• The consensus among our sources in St. Louis is that Mark LeVoir held his own pretty well at left tackle in place of the injured Rodger Saffold before straining a pectoral muscle that is expected to keep him out 2-4 weeks. As for Saffold, we hear he should be back to normal in 4-5 months after undergoing surgery on the pectoral muscle he tore lifting weights in practice the Friday before the Week 11 loss to the Seahawks.
• Our Niners sources tell us it's obvious to them that WR Braylon Edwards is still far from fully recovered from the torn meniscus he suffered against Dallas in Week Two.
• Ex-Packer Breno Giacomini earned very positive reviews from our Seahawks sources in his first start replacing the injured James Carpenter at right tackle in Week 11, but the same couldn't be said for ex-Raider Paul McQuistan, who struggled at right guard replacing the injured John Moffitt in the same game. "It's surprising because Breno hasn't played as much as McQuistan," one daily team observer said.

It's a critical week for the School District of Philadelphia. State lawmakers in Harrisburg will be deciding how much money to give the district. And that will dictate whether the district can bring back the thousands of teachers and support personnel it just laid off.
Hundreds of protesters made the trek from Philadelphia to Harrisburg Tuesday, in a last-minute desperate push for money. They shouted, "Save our Schools!" The message to lawmakers: "We care! We care about our kids," Tami Jackson insisted. "This is a critical time in time in terms of education, and these types of cuts are devastating." Jackson received a pink slip from the district, which eliminated all three counselor positions at her school.
The Pennsylvania Budget & Policy Center, a non-partisan watchdog group, says that under Governor Corbett, the state gave public schools $812 million less in the fiscal year now ending, than it did two years prior. That's $459 less per student. So the protesters took direct aim at the governor. "On the Governor's path, we have found closed buildings, furloughed educators, students in crowded classrooms, lack of resources, programs eliminated," a PSEA representative told the crowd.
It's going to be up to state lawmakers to decide this week whether to give the Philadelphia School District the $120 million it's asking for. But the Senate Majority Leader says the district will have to stand in line. "Philadelphia is not alone," State Sen. Dominic Pileggi insisted. "Allentown, Reading, York, Lancaster, Upper Darby, other cities like that are all facing severe pressures on their school budgets," Pileggi said.
Protesters are hoping their turnout will help sway the lawmakers who will decide how much money Philadelphia gets. Last week it appeared the state would come up with most of what the district is asking for, which could mean School Counselor Tami Jackson would get her job back. When Fox 29 asked Jackson whether she thought that would happen, she said, "I don't know. I don't know. 50-50, 50-50."
State lawmakers must approve a budget, and decide how much school funding to dole out, by July first.

Jeff Weiner, CEO of LinkedIn, is seen in the August 11, 2014 issue of Fortune magazine wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. It appears to be the Audemars Piguet Ref 15300
Ref 15450ST.OO.1256ST.01 in stainless steel. How do you like the watch Jeff?
The entire article is available here: "Lessons from Jeff Weiner, LinkedIn's Networker-in-Chief" by Adam Lashinsky, July 24, 2014, Fortune.
Jeff Weiner looks right at home with an AP RO on his wrist, much like Nest Labs Founder & CEO Tony Fadell, who I also spotted wearing a Ressence Type 3 (check my article on Fadell's Ressence here). Interestingly, in both instances it was in a Fortune magazine article authored by Adam Lashinsky (who you can catch on Twitter @AdamLashinsky). Fun times!

Notable anniversaries tend to bring out the best in watchmaking, and this year, the small watch brand Mühle-Glashütte — making its Perpetuelle debut in this post — has plenty of reasons to celebrate. 2014 marks not only 145 years since the distinctly German company (as all these umlaut's attest to!) was founded by Robert Mühle, but also the 20th anniversary of the re-establishment of the family business in Glashütte (yes, the same quaint Saxon town that A. Lange and Glashütte Original call home). The brand is celebrating this double anniversary by producing an exclusive special edition range consisting of three models featuring calibres manufactured by the company itself. This special edition range, which is named after the company's founder, represents the launch of its new manufacture line "R. Mühle & Sohn", is underpinned by new manufacture calibers, the RMK 01 and RMK 02.

A magnificent Patek Philippe 5960P-016 Annual Calendar Chronograph goes under the hammer at The Salon Privé Sale on Thursday 4th September at 6pm, with all proceeds going to the Rainbow Trust Children's Charity. And of course Perpétuelle is here to bring you the details you won't see anywhere else. Salon Privé London is one of the world's premier automotive events. As noted by the 'P' in the Ref # "5960P", the watch is cased in platinum, and what's not to like about that. Also of note, this particular Patek reference is no longer being produced by Patek. The 5960 reference was re-designed this year, as Patek unveiled a new chronograph subdial layout in the Patek 5960/1A (my report here) at Baselworld 2014 this past March. Which makes this 5960P an ideal watch to offer for a charitable cause.
What an opportunity — to bid on a great watch for a great cause — but wait there's more that comes with this piece!!! How about a 2-day trip to Geneva — via private jet (!!) — with accommodations at the Mandarin Oriental, a guided tour of the prestigious Patek Philippe Musuem on day one, and on day two an exclusive visit to the Patek Philippe factory followed by lunch with the Directors of Patek Philippe and Boodles. Not too shabby, eh?
Hublot announced today an exclusive partnership with the Dallas Cowboys, making the LVMH-owned Swiss luxury watch brand the "Official Luxury Watch & Timekeeper" of the Cowboys. This high-profile sports/watch partnership is a continuation of a strategy that Hublot began about 5-7 years ago under former leadership of Jean-Claude Biver (now head of the watch division for LVMH); the model has proven quite successful for Hublot, as they have done deals across the spectrum of athletes, teams, and even entire leagues and events. The list of Hublot sports/athelte/team partnerships that I have written about here at Perpetuelle is quite long over the last 4-5 years — see my listing below. As far as this Cowboys deal is concerned, like other deals Hublot has done it breaks new ground in the sport; I believe this is the first luxury watch sponsorship of an NFL team.
Hublot is launching three custom, limited edition, Dallas Cowboys-branded timepieces, inspired by the teams iconic Blue and Silver. Celebrating the Cowboys Five (5) Super Bowl wins, the famed Cowboy star can be found on the "5" of each model, with the woman's piece boasting star set in diamonds. The Timepieces will be sold exclusively in the Dallas market – both at Hublot's Dallas boutique and a newly minted pop-up location in the Cowboys' Owner's Lounge at AT&T Stadium.

Louisville, Ky. (WDRB) -- What makes a whiskey great? If you ask Brown Forman, it's not just what's in the bottle. It's what's in the barrel.
And as Sterling Riggs found out swapping gigs at the company's cooperage, it's not easy being a master barrel raiser.
"We make barrels like a baker makes a cake," says barrel expert Jerry Nalley.
Tucked in a row of non-descript businesses near Louisville's airport there's a group of incredibly hard working people with a burning desire to raise spirits. Specifically, bourbon. Brown Forman is the only major distiller in the world that makes its own barrels, and the building is full of conveyer belts, flames, and incredible loud machinery. That is where the magic happens.
It all starts with a giant warehouse full of wood. Nalley has done just about every job during his 38 years at the cooperage. And he knows how important this lumber is to even the most refined palates of bourbon drinkers everywhere.
According to Nalley, wood is the biggest expense, when it comes to making barrels. But it also adds 50 to 60 percent of the flavor and 100 percent of the color.
The cooperage uses 85 thousand American White Oak staves every day.
Once the wood is prepared, it's time to raise the barrel. That is where the hand work comes in. It took Sterling about 10 minutes to make one.
An experienced cooper can raise 35 barrels an hour and crank out 318 a day.
Then it's off to be charred. Barrel heads are put in place. The bung hole is drilled, and its inspected for any leaks.
Nalley says the Cooperage produces about 2,700 to 2,800 barrels a day or about 600,000 a year.
Start to finish, it takes 4 hours for the finished product to roll off the assembly line. They are then shipped all over the world.
So the next time you take a swig of Jack Daniels or Woodford Reserve, just remember it all started right here in Louisville with the hard work of the people at the cooperage.

Three panthers were
killed this week in Collier County – a number FWC says is contributing to what
may be the deadliest year for panthers on record in Florida.
The latest death was Tuesday,
when a three-month-old kitten was killed by a car on Immokalee Road - just north of 39th Avenue.
was the 19th panther death this year - a number that officials say is on pace
to break last year's total of 24.
They say it's only a matter of time before drivers come across panthers on the
road- with the population as high as it's been in years.
"Back in the 80s,
that's when the population was really in trouble, double to about 30 and now it's
really come up since then.," said Mark Lotz a panther biologist with FWC.
Many wonder if the Florida
Department of Transportation will add more panther detection systems on county
roads to help prevent accidents. BY RICK RITTER

Newsies Cast Members Join Neil Patrick Harris for Opening Number of Disney Parks Christmas Parade Dec. 25
By Andrew Gans
Cast members from Newsies, the critically acclaimed new musical at the Nederlander Theatre, appear with Neil Patrick Harris in the opening number of the 2013 Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade.
The parade airs Dec. 25 on ABC beginning at 10 AM ET; check local listings.
Cast members from the musical perform the original song "Are You Ready For Christmas?," written by David Javerbaum and Adam Schlesinger. Newsies' Tony Award-winning choreographer, Christopher Gattelli, staged the number.
Set in New York City at the turn of the century, Newsies, according to press notes, "is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly, a charismatic newsboy and leader of a ragged band of teenaged 'newsies,' who dreams only of a better life far from the hardship of the streets. But when publishing titans Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise distribution prices at the newsboys' expense, Jack finds a cause to fight for and rallies newsies from across the city to strike for what's right."

Country Cottage with Casual Interiors
What kind of cottage do you prefer? Beach or country? Some people (add me to the list) could never be too far away from the ocean and others, would rather be tucked away in the country, surrounded by trees and with plenty of privacy. If you like both options, this might be just the perfect cottage for you to dream about today. Located on Nantucket island, this shingle cottage is in the country, but not too far away from the waves.
Not only does the location make this country cottage attractive, the interiors are also very impressive. Embracing a casual approach, the interior designer Sophie Metz, from "Sophie Metz Design", designed this place with comfort and serenity in mind. Beautiful crisp whites seamlessly blend with warm hues and greys, making this cottage a very calming place to visit, or if you're very lucky, to live in.
Country Cottage with Casual Interiors
A touch of industrial always add character to any kitchen. Here, the designer added some vintage-inspired stools to bring some charm and interest to the space.
Lighting above island is the "Randolph Pendant from Hudson Valley Lighting".
The countertops are honed "Pietra de Cardoza granite", a harder alternative to soapstone.
Kitchen Design
Overall, this kitchen has a soft feel thanks to its color palette.
The tile is a custom color (seafoam-ish) 2″x4″ subway porcelain with a hand-applied glaze by "Mexican Handcrafted Tile Inc.".
Dining Area
The dining area is all about simplicity. Nothing feels complicated or overwhelming in this space, but it still has plenty of character.
Table and chairs are from Restoration Hardware.
The chandelier is called "Rittenhouse by Arteriors".
Millwork & Floors
Floors are reclaimed white oak, rift and quartered, with a catalyzed waterborne urethane finish.
Paneling: The walls are paneled with full sheets of mdf and slats and moldings are poplar.
This bathroom feels clean, light and timeless. Who would love to soak in that bath for hours with a good book?
Note the beautiful marble flooring and classic white subway tiles in the shower.
Simplicity is always relaxing to me. In this bathroom, beautiful white marble countertop complements the crisp white walls and cabinetry. Note the wainscot shelf with rounded corner shelf.
This property is inspiring inside and out. Isn't the guest cottage adorable?
What's your favorite kind of cottage? Beach or country?

The weather is perfect here and I might get out of the house and go for a walk. I love feeling the ocean's breeze (we live a block from the bay) and it's always nice to walk while hearing the waves. Going for walks always make me think about life and feel a little closer to God.
In fact, even with everything we go through in life, we must try to focus on the positive things that are happening right now with us.
The way we see our lives can definitely change our definition about happiness, and gratitude surely can bring you closer to it.
Now, go enjoy your day! We'll talk again tomorrow.
with Love,

Eventually, with his soul nearly broken, Father Time is granted his freedom, along with a magical hourglass and a chance to redeem himself.
