White Water Learning Center of Georgia plunges people into raging rapids with its kayak, canoe, and paddle board classes and tours. Lessons teach paddlers how to navigate all classes of rapids in rivers and in the ocean. After learning how to explore local waterways, students can sign up for one of the learning center's excursions, or rent a canoe or kayak to take on a solo journey to the location where Atlantis' food court once stood.
The courteous staffers at River Tubing pair up customers with comfortable, dual-chamber tubes perfect for warm days spent on the calm waters of the Chattahoochee River. Two-, four-, and six-hour tubing trips take place seven days a week on stretch of river between Rogers Bridge and Medlock Bridge populated with wildlife including beavers, turtles, and otters. Shuttles carry customers and their gear to the drop-in spot and return them to the rental station at the end of the trip. While on the water, guests can sip drinks from coolers, connect their tubes to those of friends, hop out and swim, or issue speeding tickets to fast-moving schools of trout.

Over the course of Windsong?s 27 years of nautical adventures, Captain Dave Crumbley and his team have still sought to instill both knowledge and passion for the sport they love. With their educational courses, you?ll learn both theory and technique, and you can choose to take a program that can lead to certification with the American Sailing Association. For pure buoyant bliss, board one of Windsong?s themed outings on Lake Lanier, which have included a murder mystery, a Jamaican-music night, and a storytelling voyage.

When and how did you first develop a passion for your work?
When I was in Vietnam with the US Army. For relaxation, special services provided sailboats for us to use. When I returned from overseas and started managing Sears stores, it was a great therapy to get out on the water.
What?s your favorite part of your job?
Watching the faces of my customers change after a lesson or rental. They are so much more relaxed. It is like a mental massage for them. It is a great stress-buster to get out on the water.
Have you ever been a patron of your own business? If so, what was the most enjoyable part?
Being part of a class and enjoying in the team-building fun.
Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
My dad was a naval commander. I was born in the Oakland Naval Yard. I built my first boat when I was 8 years old. My wife and I both hold a 50 ton US Coast Guard Sailing Captains License. We have spent 150 days in a 25-foot sailboat circumnavigating Florida. I love the peace being on the water brings.

Metabolix stock up 20 percent after ARPA-E grant

Cambridge bioscience company Metabolix Inc. (Nasdaq:MBLX) saw its stock rise 20 percent Thursday to its highest value since August after reporting a grant of more than $500,000 to fund research on the camelina plant as a potential source of fuel and food.
The rise in stock also comes a few days after company director Matthew Strobeck bought $170,785 worth of the stock last Friday, when it was valued at $1.10, according to Forbes. The company's stock was trading at $1.84 as of 1 p.m. on Thursday, a 67 percent spike since Friday.
Also last Friday, the company announced that its certified-compostable film grade resin, Mvera B5008, is available for shipping to customers. Compounded in Europe for local markets and widely available for global customers, Mvera B5008 is designed for applications including compost bags, can liners used for organic waste, as well as shopping and retail bags that can be reused as compostable organic waste bags.
According to a statement, the grant money is a subaward under the Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) to fund work with the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science. The work is aimed at redesigning carbon fixation pathways to increase the efficiency of capturing energy from sunlight.
The research is centered on the crop plant, camelina, which is fast-growing and is a potential source of oil. Metabolix is using is multi-gene expression technology to investigate an alternative biochemical pathway that theoretically could allow the plant to capture twice as much CO2 using the same amount of light, with the end goal of improving the productivity of both food and fuel crops.

Look, I believe you when you say that you're not normally a jealous person, but you're coming off as really entitled, though I'm sure you don't mean to be.
Your sister moved the date. Maybe that weekend was the only time she had to host a party? Maybe there's other stuff going on? Maybe she didn't want to get too close to the holidays? Who knows, but she did try to be accommodating.
Also, birthday weekend? Your daughter gets a special day. So does your nephew. How fun would it be for them to have this awesome birthday weekend where they get to go to TWO parties in two days? Make something fun out of it!
Should I be offended or is this ok? She hasn't even told the rest of my family that she is having nephew's birthday that day. She is acting like it's completely normal and no big deal at all.
What would you do in this situation?
I read through all the answers. I understand you feel bothered by the whole thing. I would think you should be offended if you knew your sister's intent to have the party the same weekend was to somehow negatively impact your daughter's birthday celebration. But that doesn't sound like that was her intent. It sounds like she was't thinking of your daughter's birthday (and I have to admit, I don't have all my siblings kids's birthdays memorized, although I know when they are roughly). I am happy she changed the day.
Like what sevarem said, I haven't heard of a birthday weekend versus a birthday. I think having the two parties right after each other sounds kind of fun, if you enjoy hanging out with your family. I'm glad she didn't suggest to do a double party, where you celebrate both on the same day. Now that is something I would not be happy about. I hope you all have fun!
DecemberBabyBurr, I already responded that I understand, but I can't help but feel likeyou are being attacked a bit, which usually doesn't happen on this board. Maybe I read into it too much, but it sounded to me like your sister was trying to avoid telling you when she planned her son's bday, which means she probably knew it would bother you, but went ahead and did it anyway. That is why I said she should have given an explanation. Am I reading into this too much,lol? I kind of read it as, she knows you wouldn't be happy about it and she was trying to wait till the last minute to share the news, which means she didn't really care enough about your feelings to at least give you an explanation why it needed to be the same weekend.
Kelly (29) DH-Chris (33) DD-Juliana (4/7/08)
I also agree that the OP is being attacked. I see nothing wrong with having both parties on the same weeknd and with the busy holidays season approaching, I can see how it might be the only weekend your sister is available. However, I'd be furious if my sister scheduled her kid's birthday on my DS's. birthday. No problem with the day after, but would expect a phone call just to make sure there is no conflict. Basically, It think the day of your DS's birthday is his day and it's a given that DN's birthday should be scheduled on a different day. If she wants it the day after then check in with you first and both sisters come to some kind of compromise about when to ahve each kid's birthday celebration. And by the same token, you do not schedule a party on DN's birthday (although, I'm sure you wond't). I would not expect my sister to block out a whole weekend for my DS's birthday. But I'd expect one day. And, Yes, in the end, she did accomodate you by moving the party back a day. That makes things a little better. But wouldn't completely take away the anger I felt for planning the party on my DS's birthday in the first place.
Also, what's the big deal about having 2 parties on the same weekend? I'm not just referring to the OP (I get why she feels this way after her sister scheduled her DN's party on the actual birthday). But to the others that thought 2 parties were such a bit deal. Is it really that difficult? Yes, you're working on one of those parties. But the other day you're a guest. And for the rest of the family, they're guests 2 days in a row. (Not hard at all to be a guest at someone's house IMO). My ILs are like that about birthday parties. They think they're more of a bother than anything else. I think parties are fun (assuming you like and get along with the people). I look forward to my DS's parties, as well as all of my nephews and niece. It's fun to watch kids get so excited over their party and to see the cousins playing. Anyway, my IL's attitude annoys me. I almost feel like why do we even bother having these celebrations if they're viewed as a burden for all.
Recently, I went to my best friends DD's bat mistvah. I had such a great time - nice place, good food and the best part was the dancing (I love to dance). I even got to sit at my friend's table which was nice. When I told my MIL about it her reaction was that I must have been exhausted afterwards because it's such a long day. ANd it is. But it's a nice celebration and a lot of fun too. Afterwards,I thought that I should get together with my friend more oftna andgo out dancing more often as well. OK, sorry to vent on your vent.
There seems to be two situations going on here. Which one is bothering you the most?
Your sister doesn't seem to ever remember her niece's birthday.
Your sister planned her son's party on the same weekend.
See, I would be really upset if my brother always forgot my daughter' s birthday. I mean, he not just some distant relative. He's my brother. I don't have a very good memory when it comes to remembering exact dates of birthdays, but that's where I use common sense. I write those dates on my calendar.
Initially I'd could totally see being upset...for me, I'd go as far as being pissed off, if my brother scheduled one of his daughter's birthday parties on the same date of my daughter's party. I'd probably call him and lay into him myself, especially since there was such advanced notice. However, if he did change the date, no, that wouldn't bother me personally. But that's just my personal feeling.
You are entitled to your own feelings. Everyone is. You don't need to justify your feelings to anyone.
~Katie, wife to Aaron and mommy to Cassidy Jamie (2/18/2007)
Confident with my choice of being "one and done!"
I don't think people are attacking the OP, I think we are just sharing how we feel.
OP, it is totally understandable to feel a bit protective of your DD's birthday being you will never be doing a child's birthday again. I just know that as much as I want to be protective of my child's birthday I have to remember we only have one time to do this, do I want to take up time and emotions on something I can't change?
Yes, there are 2 scenarios here, I think. The first is the sister picking DDs bday as the party day for her son. That would piss me off. And I think that is a perfectly understandable reaction.
The 2nd thing is then changing to another day that weekend. As far as planning it for the following day, that is not something I'd be upset about. I'd be appreciative that she moved it without any complaints or saying anything else about it. I guess I don't see why someone needs a "birthday weekend". You have your birthday, you celebrate that day and if it happens to be on a weekend and you're lucky enough to be able to spend an entire day celebrating, great. lol So yes, I'd be offended about her originally planning it on my daughter's birthday but the fact that it's the next day instead, when things get crazy around the holidays? (All our weekends are shot through Christmas already with NO birthdays) I don't see why that's a big deal or worth being mad over.
- Kristen
One and done!
I don't see any attacking here, just a lot of people who disagree with OP. I too just don't understand the birthday weekend. Would I be upset if a relative planned their child's party on my child's actual birthday? Sure but some times people just don't think and don't have ill intent. She changed the day so I don't see how that takes away at all from your daughter's special day. Her birthday is over by then.
For me the question is whether this is a one time event or a pattern. If your sister is constantly being kind of passive-aggressive like this, then I think it's a bigger deal.
If she's not normally like that, then perhaps chalk it up to circumstances/forgetfulness/etc. I do find it strange that she wouldn't talk to you directly about it once your mom reminded her that it was your DD's birthday... that makes me a little more suspicious. But without knowing more about your family dynamics, I'm not sure if it's really a big deal.
But it is what it is, right? Now you can only make the best of it.
"Love is a harsh and dreadful thing to ask of us but it is the only answer." - Dorothy Day
Regarding the birthday weekend, I guess for me it would depend if this is the established way your family celebrates each child's birthday. I don't know that i'd mind a relative sharing, but I can understand how this would upset you if you sister cut in your child's special time..
If the weekend is not an official thing in your family, and you simply want your child to be the limelight a little longer, this isn't necesarily something you sister has to work around, and I don't really think its fair to expect it.

"Brooklyn Boys" Spoofs "Brooklyn Girls"

When frontman Greg Jamie pinches his voice throughout O'Death's third album, he's channeling old, weird dudes whose songs might curl and twang from a remote Appalachian wireless. But he comes out sounding closer to Frank Black, who is also, at this point, old and weird, and might as well be beaming in from an imagined (and just as distant) college-radio station. Either way, no problem. Armed with the Arcade Fire pyro-dynamics everyone finds so addictive these days, the Brooklyn quintet remains as bombastic as you can get while still playing acoustic. The drums help. Broken Hymns, Limbs and Skin only sounds like the Pixies once (during "Vacant Moan"), but that's enough to earn the band a prominent entry in the Encyclopedia of Twentysomethings on a Deeply Romantic Quest for Authentic Raw Americana (see also: New Lost City Ramblers, the Band, Uncle Tupelo). Executing relentless arrangements with cranked junkyard precision (and transcending the merely sped-up folk of last year's Head Home), O'Death move more into league with gypsy-hipsters like Gogol Bordello and Beirut. In the first minute of "Light That Does Not Dim," Jamie flits between glossalia, actual lyrics, and a wordless, cracking falsetto, none of which matters over the insistent stomp, which seems to suggest that 1,000 string bands—locked in a room for 1,000 years with 1,000 banjos, washboards, etc.—might've accidentally invented the power-pop outro.
Jamie's attention to detail makes him a sort of gothic Kurt Weill: "Although I am naked/Never before did I care," he croons on "Mountain Shifts," a grotesque Adam narrating his awakening in the post-Eden wilderness (maybe somewhere in West Virginia). The music is often cresting and joyous, implying sweating bodies careening through a space designed to hold half their number. Despite the banjos, this is not the music of a rural, open country—don't expect O'Death to abandon Brooklyn anytime soon.

I used this bed with a sleep number mattress. I replaced the slats with a piece of plywood and the result is a great night's sleep! The slats would be fine with a conventional mattress but not with the sleep number. At under $400 this is a great value too.
Good, solid bed

Rumor: Whitney Houston's Family Will Not Permit Bobby Brown To Attend The Singer's Funeral
[photogallerylink id=77890 align=right]
Reports have surfaced that [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Whitney Houston[/lastfm]'s family will not allow the singer's ex-husband [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Bobby Brown[/lastfm], to attend Houston's funeral. According to reports, Cissy Houston (the mother of [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Whitney Houston[/lastfm]) is trying her best to keep Bobby Brown away from the funeral and his daughter Bobbi Kristina.
It's no secret that there has been bad blood from the beginning between [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Bobby Brown[/lastfm] and the Houstons. Some are saying that Whitney's family is blaming the 'Prerogative' singer for Houston's downfall and struggles with her drug addiction. According to FoxNews.com, [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Bobby Brown [/lastfm]will not attend Whitney Houston's funeral at her family's request and will instead perform at a concert in Connecticut with New Edition.
The night of [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Whitney Houston[/lastfm]'s death, [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Bobby Brown[/lastfm] took to the stage during his New Edition concert in Mississippi to express his love for Houston, sobbing through his entire 4 hour performance. The next day, Brown skipped out on his Nashville performance to fly to Los Angeles to be with his daughter, however there have been reports that Bobby Brown was also turned away and not permitted to visit his 18-year old daughter Bobbi Kristina. Some are saying that Brown is also to blame for his daughter's abuse with alcohol and drugs.
A source close to the Houston family confirmed to PEOPLE that [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Bobby Brown[/lastfm] will indeed attend the funeral to support his daughter and perform with his band-mates [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]New Edition[/lastfm] later that night in Connecticut. Apparently, there has been some talk of banning the singer, but the family will allow him to attend and grieve for his ex-wife.
What do you think, should Bobby Brown be allowed to attend his ex-wife's funeral? Tell us your thoughts in the comments!

This is why when i built my ar i looked into every one before buying parts. I can now say that at least one gun i own is made by americans for americans. Oh and stag arms, thanx for the tour and im sorry ct sucks. Its a shame to see you guys leave. Love your g3 upper!!!
you pew pew pew lately bro!?
What about Ruger?
Mamas don't let your cowboys grow up to be babies.
better dead than red
Well I went to one of my local mom and pop places and they had a Mossberg 935 in what looked to be waterfowl camo. The gun said made in U.S.A on the receiver. But didn't someone here say that their parts are made in mexico? But that was my only find for the day. I plan on going to gander mtn. and another mom and pop place later in the week to see what else I can find.
The American worker is an endangered species, I always buy American guns unless they are military surplus or a gift. I only have a couple that are not made here, and I thought that firearms would be one thing we in America can rely on to be made here. TekGreg was on the money when saying most of what he said. But I believe there is still hope for the firearm industry. There are still a ton of companies working here (especially in the AR field) and we need to support them. I live in Ohio and Ohio is a farming and manufacturing state. We rely on tractors and making car parts, yet many factories are now gone and everyone works retail. So sad, but I believe we can turn it around.
For example even if you have to save up to buy your next pair of work boots buy American. I would rather wear my old boots and jeans for a month or two longer than buy cheap junk. I save and save so I can support an American family putting food on their table. Actually I just found a place that sells 100% made in America jeans and clothes, funny thing is the jeans are a few bucks cheaper than levis!! So spend a little time looking and buy American! I know sometimes you can't but anytime you can do so! I would rather feed an American family buy paying more than saving and letting that money keep a sweat shop open!
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."
--George Washington
[QUOTE=TekGreg; We already have throw away cars.[/QUOTE]Gotta disagree about cars Greg. Don't know if you're old enough to remember "planned obsolescence." From the 1950's thru early 70's the Big Three encouraged the purchase of a new car every two-four years. They did this by building cars that wouldn't last much longer than four years before major problems/costs were incurred. Much as old farts like me wax lyrical about '57 Chevys and '65 GTO's, they weren't very good cars. 100,000 miles was unheard of. These days, we think nothing of running a car/truck 100,000/150,000 miles, piling the kids in it and heading for Disney World. I agree with most of what you said, but cars/trucks? They're ALOT better these days.
"Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound." L. Neil Smith
The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
Jon's right also, unions are obsolete, parasitic, company killers.
Right to work levels the field somewhat but states that are union run are also the same ones being run into the ground. Unions force companies into paying labor way out of line to stay competitive in their markets so guess what?.....
**** runs downhill and cost goes up.
Look at the auto industry, forget the wages exactly but the big three are paying up to triple what it cost Toyota per employee. Hell even a tick knows not to kill the dog its feeding on. Unions are the tail wagging the dog. So yes Jon made a very valid point.
Im Norwegian, but i think i got this right: Ruger, S&W, ithaca, mossberg, remington, Henry, Colt AND Thomson are still being made in America, arent they? Ive bought only american guns except for a Benelli Nova. And really, i like the americans better!
The Mossberg 930 line is all American. Browning and Winchester are part of FN Herstal in Belgium so chances are few of those made in the US, the Winchester SXP is possibly even made by Hatsan in Turkey. The Browning Maxus and Winchester SX3 are definitely from FN in Belgium, at least all the ones coming into the British Isles are.
But you'll know things are really bad when all your classical American named guns start arriving with 'Made in the PRC' plastered all over them.
The only Mossberg guns that are not made I the U.S. are in the international line. If it doesn't say "Mossberg International" on the box it was made, and assembled, in the U.S.

Venir is a common verb with a variety of meanings. Fortunately, many of them — although not all — can be translated using the English verb "to come," which also has numerous meanings.
Most commonly, venir is used to talk about coming to or arriving at a place:
- Cuando yo vine a California fui a Disneylandia. When I came to California, I went to Disneyland.
- Venimos en bus con un maestro y pagamos por nuestro transporte. We came by bus with a teacher and paid for our own transportation.
- Tenía sólo un año cuando vino desde España. He was only a year old when he came from Spain.
- ¡Ven aquí! Come here!
- No vienen hasta las 14.30. They aren't coming until 2:30 p.m.
In context, venir can convey the idea of coming back or returning:
- No vengas a mí. (Título de canción) Don't come back to me. (song title)
- Es importante que vengas temprano. It's important you come back early.
Venir can mean "to include," "to be" or "to have," often in a way that can be translated by "to come":
- El primer iPad no viene con webcam. The first iPad doesn't come with (include) a webcam.
- Estas bicicletas vienen de Surinam. These bicycles are (come) from Suriname.
- El único que viene con excusas eres tú. The only one who comes with (has) excuses is you.
- Las servilletas vienen en distintos tamaños. The napkins come (are) in different sizes.
- Viene en caja sellada. It comes (is) in a sealed box.
Especially when used with bien or mal, venir can be used to indicate suitability:
- No ser muy famoso me viene bien. Not being very famous is fine with me.
- A ningún país le viene mal la globalización. Globalization doesn't serve any country poorly.
- Al libro le venía bien la promoción. The promotion was good for the book.
Venir can be used as an auxiliary verb with the gerund to indicate a continuing action, often in an increasingly intense way.
- Hace mucho tiempo que se viene hablando de la necesidad de una nueva constitución. The need for a new constitution has been talked about and talked about for a long time.
- El presidente viene sufriendo derrota tras derrota. The president continues to suffer defeat after defeat.
Keep in mind that venir is conjugated irregularly.

Good article on how the Manny situation, which Olney sees as favoring the Dodgers at this point.
ESPN - Buster Olney Blog
From Keith Law
Max (Norfolk): Mr. KLaw- Can you think of a good reason why the Dodgers didn't offer arbitration to Furcal? What was the worst that could happen? He accepts and they pay him $10-14 million for one season while DeJesus Jr. and Hu develop another year?
SportsNation Keith Law: Not a great decision - the limited PT for Furcal this year would work against him in arb - but there wasn't a draft pick at stake either, so it's not an awful decision like Chicago/Wood, Yanks/Abreu, or Arizona/Dunn.
Didn't know about the draft pick.
10 bucks says Manny signs a deal with some random team like Detroit or Seattle.
Yea, I don't see Manny being back with us next season
Buster, why the **** would we trade any of those guys for Robinson Cano?Originally Posted by Buster Olney
Over 4 full years, he's averaged: .303, 15.5 HR, 77 rbi, 76 runs, 4 sb, .803 OPS. Those are very good numbers for a 2B, but not nearly worth giving up Kershaw, Bills or Kemp.
And Olney doesn't address why the Dodgers, already short on starting pitchers, would trade one of their prized starters for a 2B!! Just another ESPN article meant to get the attention of Yankees fans.

The MAC Graduate School informational session will take place in the Wolf-Kuhn Gallery on the first floor of the iconic Main Building on the Cresson campus.

The quarterback prospects of the 2013 NFL Draft have long been considered a muddled group with a relatively clear leader in West Virginia's Geno Smith. Then the USC Trojans held their pro day workouts on Wednesday, and Matt Barkley impressed. The question is, has anything really changed?
Now, the magnitude of Barkley's pro day will of course vary, but one well-respected outfit, Pro Football Weekly, released their rankings of the top six quarterback prospects via Twitter on Thursday, and Barkley was slotted at No. 1. So, yeah, one could assume his pro day workout had some sort of an impact.
After the top-ranked Barkley, Pro Football Weekly's list looks like this: Ryan Nassib (Syracuse) at No. 2, E.J. Manuel (Florida State) at No. 3, Tyler Wilson (Arkansas) at No. 4, Zac Dysert (Miami (Ohio)) at No. 5 and Smith at No. 6.
For comparison's sake, SB Nation's Dan Kadar has the top six quarterbacks ranked as such: Smith, Barkley, North Carolina State's Mike Glennon, Wilson, Tennessee's Tyler Bray and Nassib (Manuel and Dysert are ranked seventh and eighth, respectively). Additionally, SB Nation's latest mock draft only has one signal-caller, Smith, going in the first round -- at No. 2 overall to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
What it means, potentially, is that the more Barkley can grow on teams leading up to April's draft, the more the top spot in the quarterback group may be up in the air. The rest could go in any which way. Fit, need and scheme are going to be just as important in determining who goes where, too. If this year's quarterback class is proving to be anything, though, it's that, in the absence of an obvious choice it's all just a matter of opinion, more than ever.
More from SB Nation:
• Is the NFL ready to accept a gay player?
• Falcons sign "one-trick pony" Osi Umenyiora
• Could Carson Palmer land in Arizona?
• NFL Draft: Geno Smith to visit the Chiefs
• NFL mock draft: Finally, some clarity

CENTRAL CITY, Ky. (5/28/13) – Central City Fireman Brandon Devine found a unique way to remember the fallen heroes honored on Memorial Day.
Devine chose to raise the red, white and blue high over the middle of Second Street using a fire truck extension ladder.
"I just thought it was a good way to pay respect to all those we need to remember on Memorial Day weekend," Devine said.

For those of you interested in NASCAR and like to do fantasy I created a league over there for us AP users. I haven't done NASCAR fantasy in some time. Anyway the league name is Arrowhead Pride password is kansascity
One Chief makes an appearance.
A little more into the head of Pioli about this tragedy, also AP mentioned in the article.
Came across this on youtube. Thought some of AP might enjoy this. Well worth the time.
Talking Chiefs, and I have begun to like Whitlock more after he has left KC.
Alright AP, time to rig anther vote. This time for Jamaal Charles to win the FedEx Ground Player of the Week with 233 yards rushing, TD and 55 yards receiving. (Sorry if this was posted, hard to figure it out with new format, if so go ahead and remove it)
Pick 6.. Is it a bad thing to have 3 ravens on my pick 6? lol just realized that I had Flacco, Rice, and Pita... woops think I will change it a bit as to avoid any omens or incase the Ravens dont play well
Players with more rushing yards than Chris Johnson include Matt Cassel and Brandon Weeden and more.
Surprised to see this headline this morning. R.I.P. Art
A selection of Chiefs on this guy's list of fantasy waiver picks
Curious if anyone knows or have a good pic of Arrowhead Stadium to use a facebook banner cover photo? Hard to find a good one
Came across this video on youtube of Peyton Hillis on ESPN Sport Science when he was still with Browns...he is rediculous
Another Chiefs game, this one in week 8 against the Chargers. In part due to Rivers fumble on what was going to be setting up the game winner FG for Chargers.
A couple of AFC West Rival cities land on the Unmanliest Cities in America. Kinda funny
This was a good laugh, Kansas sucks so much they have to practice how to celebrate a win (even after they screwed it up the first time).
His Breaking Down the Chiefs: Dexter McCluster.. Thought it was pretty cool to see him sharing a post from our very own and site and to see that our favorite players might in fact just be reading our posts and comments.
Liked his words of support while at the same time those words kind of backhanding former coach Todd Haley
10. The Chiefs. Spurned by Peyton Manning an developing a penchant for taking quality players cast aside by division rivals, why not give Tebow the chance to return to Denver once per year?
Ok have a question, trying to look for these as I saw them on nfl.com shop before but cannot find them anymore... did they discontinue them or somethng? I've looked around and cannot find any. Lost my other chiefs knit hat/beanie and trying to get another and like this style, also seen the style worn on sidelines.. Hoping my Arrowhead Pride buddies can help me out.
A Chiefs player makes an appearance, I think we all can guess who it is.
Via The Kansas City Chiefs Facebook page.
With one of his coaching staff members retiring, this could open up the possibility a little of Ferentz being open to come to KC if offered the job. Okay I'm just crazy and would like to see Ferentz come to KC. (I still believe it's very unlikely he comes) Just a though/idea. Shout off
So much for complaining to the media you aren't dirty. This sure helps your case. /end sarcasm
And thankfully, not for our game vs. Denver

the room on the first floor. Much more comfortable than the first room we were given.. Breakfasts. The management quickly gave us a different room when we complained.
The first room we were given was handicapped accessible. The heat lamp in the bath room didn't work correctly. It was on for 30 seconds and then off for 30 seconds. The shower was arranged so that there was no way to keep the floor dry. The shower head was supposed to be removable for accessability but totally came apart in my husband's hands. There was not enough shampoo for 2 people. The manager called before we really got settled in the room to ask if everything was all right. We have never had that happen before. I think she knew there were problems with that room before she gave it to us.

The breakfast room only had 4 tables and the breakfast offered was very limited. The apples and oranges were very small. There was a large gap under the hallway door and noise came through easily. Fortunately the guests were on the quiet side.Our room was on the first floor on the street side of the building. Very little street noise. The location outside of town was a little hard to find and it was a challenge to get to the parking lot. Access was via a side street, not the main street. The pool was small and use was dominated by lots of kids with water toys. Attached restaurant was nice for the town.
Excellent 10.0
We have stayed there several times before, and plan on staying there again in the future.
we spoke to the staff and are looking forward to them updating the rooms.

At first I questioned if a Super 8 would be what we would like; however, we found it very nice, relatively new, and extremely clean. One funny thing I have noticed in the past is the TP. They use a quality brand¿not the slick narrow stuff for your 'bum

I thought the management set a great tone for how this motel would operate. It was very clear that there were rules of behavior for the guest and I respected this professional stance. This was the best place we stayed at during our 8 day vacation.Exceptionally clean and well cared for. The neighborhood was safe and well maintained. Great value!

The staff was wonderful. The breakfast was wonderful. The 2.5 rating is not enough.
I wish there would have been a very visible lit sign facing Verona Ave as we passed the hotel twice at night. Traveling with a grandchild, next time instead of a King Suite, we will opt for the 2 queen beds as the couch bed was uncomfortable.

I am attempting to get my 3 month old to accept a bottle. I pump fresh milk and give it to her while warm but I can't stand forcing it into her mouth. She rejects it every time. OJ is my 4th child. I was unsuccessful at getting the other 3 to take the bottle. I just want a date night with my husband. Any advise?
Try having DH give her a bottle when you are not around. If that works, try getting a friend to do it - and if that is successful, you might be able to go on a date night. Lots of babies will take a bottle from another person but won't from their mom (who has the lovely breasts they prefer right there).
Play around with different bottle nipples. Some babies prefer one type to another.
How about cup feeding (although that may be a bit of work for a sitter….)
Good luck, mama.
There is a battle of two wolves inside us. One is good and the other is evil. The wolf that wins is the one you feed.
Book and herb loving mama to 1 preteen and 2 teens (when did that happen?). We travel, go to school, homeschool, live rurally, eat our veggies, spend too much time...
You can work around it for a date. Arrive at your friend's house, nurse her. Leave. Arrive back in three hours, nurse again.
Midwife (CPM, LDM) and homeschooling mama to:
13yo ds 10yo dd 8yo ds and 6yo ds and 1yo ds
Dont give them yourself, ever. Play around with bottle nipples.
Lol, I was not able to get my son to take a bottle, and neither was my husband! It depends on the kid, I guess.
He's 13 months now and drinks a sippy cup and eats solids, and I can leave him for 4 hours or a little more. So this too shall pass!
As for a date night, have you considered a "staycation"? Hire a babysitter to come to the house and play with the kids, but hole up with a movie in your room with the husband. You'll still be in the house to nurse the baby on demand.
Katie - Married to Mike 06/02/01, Mom to Sydney Anne born 11/21/09 and Alice Maeryn & Oliver Thomas born 04/24/13
Also, I've read you should be out of the room entirely, if not out of the HOUSE when someone else gives your baby the bottle for the first time. I've read breast fed babies typically accept latex nipples better, if you're not having any luck with silicone... I've also read you can skip the bottles entirely if you're not having much luck getting the baby to take ANY. You can move straight to a training cup. Breast-fed babies typically take straw cups better(my son's 21 months old, and played around with a straw cup - I think it's Nuby's, it has a soft, silicone straw with a valve he has to compress and suction the liquid out with). We also have a training cup by Avent that works and looks a lot like an adult cup, but has an insert which has to be pushed down with his lip in order to let liquid trickle.
This is from Jack Newman's website:
Midwife (CPM, LDM) and homeschooling mama to:
13yo ds 10yo dd 8yo ds and 6yo ds and 1yo ds
I introduce the bottle at 2 weeks, mainly because with DS1 & 2 I had to go back to work and baby didn't have a choice but to take a bottle. And only DH or someone else would give them the bottle, never me (at first). However, I ran out of my freezer stash pretty quickly and when I pumped at work I could only get enough for next day's meals. So yeah, our date nights didn't go much past 2 hrs as DS2 did not get formula like DS1 did. Deciding not to give formula to DS2 however, meant he was with me all.the.time. Everywhere I went, I had to bring him in case he wanted to nurse. As hard as that is, I do plan on doing the same with baby #3 due in April.

Joe McQuaid's Publisher's Notebook: On elvers and clearing up 'Windum thing'
A guy from Candia had been cited in Maine, where authorities were going to make a ton of money by selling "Elvis" stuff they had seized from him.
Turns out, it was "elvers," a name I had never heard before. It means a baby eel. Why "baby eel" isn't good enough, I have no idea. But it might be because anything that slimy that is going for up to $2,000 a pound has to have a fancy name.
When they are born, in the ocean, they are called "glass eels." When they make it back to fresh water, they become "elvers." And those that make it up to the Lamprey River, where my father used to fish for them, at night, when he was not much more than an elver himself, are known as Lamprey eels.
I'm guessing that the river got its name because of all the eels.
Maine is one of two states that allow, by license, the taking of elvers. Our Candia man allegedly had no license. But with the Japanese, in particular, hungry for the apparent delicacy, no license was no object.
"Wow. $2,000 a pound?" one editor said. "You could get a ticket, online, to the Rolling Stones' Boston concert for that!"
Come to think of it, Mick Jagger's face does sort of look like an eel's, no offense intended to the eel. But I wouldn't pay $2,000 for either. If Elvis showed up, though...
Someone wrote in last week to question my pronunciation of Windham (as in Win-dum). Fellow said his family had been in New Hampshire since 1838 and had always pronounced it "Wind-HAM." He said I should get out and visit a few nursing homes where I may find a "native" to ask.
That's pretty remarkable. My family has been in New Hampshire since even further back and I have yet to find any sound recordings of them pronouncing anything.
Another reader was on my side, though.
"I'm glad you cleared up that Windum thing. I thought maybe it was just me who had it all wrong. Perhaps because I have lived my first 3/4 century on the right side of NH," he wrote. He's from Exeter, you see.
"Back when they had the floods over there on the left side I noticed those news talkers were calling Alstead Al-stead when over here on the saltwater side we always called it All-stead. However, after the recent police chase and shooting over there they interviewed a local who called it All-stead. To their credit those news talkers are quick learners because on the next broadcast they called it All-stead too and have ever since.
"Keep up the good work, Joe, we old natives are counting on you.
"I think I can call myself a native. My great, great, great, great (I don't know how many greats) grandfather was born in Concud NH in 1732 where he owned a tavern in East Concord from 1780 until he died in 1804. His father saw the light and came up here from Amesbury but they all lived on this side of the Merrimac since arriving in Salisbury in the 1620s."
Bet they ate elvers, too.

Black ice causes truck accident, ink spill in Vt.The Associated Press | February 12,2013Vermont State Police say one lane is open on Route 78 in Alburgh where a tractor-trailer truck crashed on an icy road, spilling barrels carrying black ink.
Route 78 was closed shortly after the crash, reported about 2 a.m. Tuesday.

Police say the driver hit black ice, causing the unit to spin, cross the double yellow line and travel off the shoulder. A load of 50-gallon barrels came out of the back of the trailer.
