FRIDAY, Dec. 9 (HealthDay News) -- Low levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) have been seen in children with obesity and are associated with early signs of diabetes, according to research published online Nov. 9 in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.
Micah L. Olson, M.D., of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, and colleagues collected data on 411 obese children and 87 normal-weight children (all 6 to 16 years of age) in North Texas to compare the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency between the two groups. The relationship between diet and vitamin D levels as well as the relationship between vitamin D levels and metabolism and blood pressure were examined.
The researchers noted 25(OH)D levels below 75 nmol/L among 92 percent of obese children, and below 50 nmol/L in 50 percent of obese children, compared with 68 and 22 percent of non-obese children, respectively. Low vitamin D levels were also associated with markers of insulin resistance as well as with dietary habits such as skipping breakfast and consuming soda and juice.
"Vitamin D deficiency is common in children in this southern United States location, and is significantly more prevalent in obese children. Lower 25(OH)D level is associated with risk factors for type 2 diabetes in obese children," the authors write.

Saucon Valley coach Matt Evancho had a flashback Friday night when he got a sideline view of Catasauqua's ongoing assault on the Colonial League.
It was during the 2001 Eastern Conference playoffs when Wilson, where Evancho was an assistant coach, was facing District 4 power Mount Carmel, the winningest program in Pennsylvania history.
Wilson's primary focus was defending quarterback Dave Shinskie.
"I remember one of our linebackers telling me, 'Coach, I was in position to make a play but the ball was by me,' " Evancho said. " 'I heard it humming,' he said. I told him there was nothing more he could do."
Mount Carmel won the game 42-10.
Shinskie took his 95-mph fastball to minor league baseball before playing football at Boston College.
Last Friday, Evancho's defense had the task of defending Catasauqua quarterback Zack Bradley.
Bradley, despite throwing just one pass in the second half, threw for 289 yards and three touchdowns in the Rough Riders' 56-34 win. He also ran for a score and caught a TD pass.
But the senior broke the game open with his strong, accurate right arm.
"We brought pressure almost every time he threw the ball," Evancho said. "He had it out of there before we could get to him.
"And he not only got it out of there, he was throwing lasers."
The 6-foot-1, 177-pound Bradley would be a major Division I prospect if he had Shinskie's size (6-4, 210). But he makes the best of what he has.
The senior, who leads the league in passing yards (971) and passing touchdowns (14), is closing in on Catasauqua records for completions, passing yards and passing TDs.
Bradley's completion percentage would be higher than 57.7 percent (45 of 78) if all of his lasers that found the hands of his teammates stayed in those hands, but he hasn't complained.
His highlight of the 2013 season was a pass he didn't throw.
Late in the second quarter, Catasauqua coach Tom Falzone called a timeout on a fourth-and-5 situation at the Saucon 24-yard line.
There is much debate about what happened next, other than a play was pulled out of storage. Bradley handed off to teammate Ra'Von Burton, who ran a few steps to his right before stopping to throw back to his left to a wide-open Bradley for a touchdown.
"Note to Bradley," Burton said after the game. "I'm coming after his record. It's not going to be for long if we keep running that play."
Bradley was standing just a couple of steps away when Burton offered up his projection.
"I told Coach Falzone, 'Let's run that play,'" Bradley said. "It worked. I saw the linebacker coming [after making the catch]. I just said to myself, 'Don't you go down.'"
Bradley was especially proud of that play because it provided a flashback to his youth, when he was taken by his father, Steve, to watch former Liberty High and Northwestern University standout Dan Persa play.
"He had three touchdowns in one year on plays like that," Bradley said. "I was surprised I was that wide open. On that play, I was either going to get killed when I went for the ball or be wide open."
Catasauqua leads the league in scoring with 261 points in five lopsided victories. But Bradley and Evancho recognize that it has been more than just the Rough Riders quarterback responsible for the success.
Burton is the league's leading rusher. Paryss Marshall is the loop's most dangerous receiver. Jake Stopay, Ricky Houser and Devin Flores have stepped into bigger roles as skill players.
And there is the veteran offensive line.
"They are very good up front," Evancho said. "They do a real good job of opening holes and protecting Bradley."
Burton nearly missed his chance last Friday to throw his first touchdown pass of the season.
During last Wednesday's practice, a couple of teammates crash-landed on his right knee. It originally was believed to be ligament damage that would have ended his high school career.
But the news of it being just strained came a day later.
"I thought we lost him for the year," Falzone admitted. "We prepared for not having him.
"He played with three knee braces on. He's a gutsy kid. He's done this before."
Burton suffered a badly sprained ankle in a Week 5 game last season against Saucon Valley, but didn't miss a beat. He ran for 241 yards the following week in a win over previously unbeaten Bangor.

Wolfe Creek, Australia
Feargus Cooney/Getty Images
Like Barringer Crater/Meteor Crater in Arizona, Wolfe Creek owes its well-preserved state to both age (around 300,000 years) and the desert environment of the Australian Outback. The impact crater is about half a mile wide. The center is dotted with trees and shrubs and is generally more hospitable to plants and wildlife than the harsh desert outside of the crater.

April and I have a slight disagreement regarding just what that ol' gals name really was, but since I get to pick the song lyrics for the title of this guest post, I thought I would take advantage and get my version set in black and white. I'm a sneaky devil, I know! :)
Now settle on in, I've got quite a story to tell
About three lil wrangler's named Sam, Neve, and El!
Most will be pictures, and just a word or three
'bout these little wranglers and how they came to be
There'll be pictures a'plenty about our Southern Utah adventure
Some might be shocking, so hold on to your dentures!
First stop was Ice Cream at the red barn past Payson
Something yummy for the kiddies, cuz I knew what they'd be facin'
Just a nice cold scoop or two and all would be well
Til we got to Southern Utah where it's hotter'n….a pistol! :)
Plain ol' vanilla for Neve, cookies and cream for Ella
For Sam mint-Oreo & for me Dark Chocolate Haben…WHAT THE HELLA??
So much for cooling my spicy tongue with ice cream
I was suddenly a fire-breathing dragon and I wanted to scream!
All this because good ol' Brian "promised" himself,
His next recommendation's being put on some top dusty shelf!
Ok, enough of the poems…I'm even annoying myself. The next stop was a favorite Mexican Food joint of Dave and Aprils in a Gas station of all places in Beaver Utah. Turns out the apple doesn't fall far from the tree with this one. These kids gobbled up these HUMONGOUS Burritos in no time. I've never seen Sam eat so much and that is no exaggeration.
Finally after hours in the car we arrived at my parents' house in the thriving metropolis of Kanab, Utah. I gave the kids a quick tour of my childhood home. Ella really liked that we had a dumbwaiter (mini elevator for food) that went between our kitchen on the main floor and our banquet room downstairs. Sam really liked my mom's bidet (Toilet that washes and dries your tooshy) and Neve liked the secret passageway between my dad's office and the main part of our house which was hidden behind a bookcase that moves. We relaxed for a bit by swinging in the back yard. :)
After stretching our legs a bit, it was back into the car for one more hour drive on out to the Ranch.
Ella took this picture on our last stretch of HWY 89 before turning up the road to the Ranch.
**Just a funny commercial break here.*** When I was first asking April if Ella could come (I hate driving that long drive by myself. It's so boring! And Ella has turned out to be a good little travel buddy. I have taken her to So. Utah before) Well as I was tossing the idea out there to April, little Neve overheard me talking about my "Ranch" and her little ears perked up. She came in making the best little pitch she could for including her in the adventure. "I really like salad…" she hinted. A little confused by this, April and I looked at each other before both busting up laughing. Ranch dressing was the only thing Neve was familiar enough with to associate with "Ranch" and that was enough for her, so she made her pitch. She wanted in! All it took for Sam was knowing 4 wheelers and horses were involved and he reluctantly gave up watching soccer to come have a Cowboy adventure.***End commercial break***
Deer Springs Ranch is an hour East of Kanab, half way between Kanab and Lake Powell. It sits on the south rim of Bryce Canyon, so the north end of the ranch has pink cliffs similar to Bryce Canyon. I spent most of my free time here working for my dad as a kid and actually hate going there with a passion…that is, unless you have three fun little balls of energy that come with you to spice up the trip. Then this old dusty cattle ranch takes on a whole new level of fun. :)
These kids had to "rough it" a little, but they really made the best of our accommodations and I had a BLAST! For example, we have 10 or 12 fully furnished cabins up there, but they were all full with all my extended family for this family reunion (~300 people attend my family reunions). So Ella, Sam, Neve and I got a cabin that didn't have the lights or running water hooked up yet, since no one else wanted it. However, keep in mind this cabin sleeps 24 people and we had it all to ourselves—shucky darn! :) All we had to do was haul our own water to pour in the toilet and it was all hooked up to flush! For these kids, it was a piece of cake.
Instead of sleeping in the bedrooms, however we just pulled the mattresses off the beds into the front room and had a "sleep-out" every night.
We ate meals at the "Pavilion" which consisted of two large red and white striped circus tents my dad put up for the family reunion on one of our vacant lots. To keep the dirt to a minimum around the eating area, he put down artificial turf from some football field so it was kind of funny eating on the 50 yard line. :) Oh, well—it worked! Here's our first breakfast. Ella says she liked the food despite the look on her face. :)
The family reunion was over the 4th of July weekend, so we of course celebrated with festivities. Here is Neve with all the kids getting their little flags. The other kids were jealous that she got two although she has no idea how one ended up stuck in her pony tail—I guess she was too busy doing her best patriotic pose like the Statue of Liberty to notice what had happened! :)
This is my niece Anika. She and Neve were like peas and carrots the whole reunion.
My brother John (Anika's dad) brought his razor and all the kids had a blast riding around in it. Here's Sam, Anika, Neve and Anika's little brother Troy.
Anika's older sister Kylie is who Ella pal'ed around with sitting in the front seat waiting for Ella to get in for this razor ride
No trip to the Ranch Dressing would be complete without some solid time in the saddle, right?
Here is Neve on Mary, Sam on Butterscotch, Ella on Sunny and Me on Ziggy.
It was a GORGEOUS trail ride and the kids did awesome. I think they were a little nervous when the horses would kind of lope up the steep parts, but they all did great. We did see one rattler on the trail ride, but it was already dead. The trail boss had killed it a few hours earlier on the trail and it was still there!
The kids were a little saddle sore once they got off—meaning they walked funny, but it didn't last too long.
As part of the reunion, we divided up by age groups for different activities, but since the 5 year olds were dressing a goat in baby clothes for their activity, Neve and Anika decided to come sit in on the class of 8 to 18 year old girls learning about goal setting--SO EXCITING compared to the boys, ages 8 to 18 that had a boring gun safety and target shooting workshop. How boring that must have been compared to our class while at the freaking RANCH!! So unfair. Anywho, unfortunately I didn't get any pics of little Outlaw Josey Whales wielding his double barreled shot gun--boo. :(
Here is Pete and Repeat trying their darndest to sit still on those uncomfortable logs we had for chairs in our outdoor class room in a place called "the Grove".

And, what's a working cattle ranch without the cattle, right? The kids got a kick out of our Texas Longhorns.
I had to explain to these city slickers what a salt lick was…
and yes, little Nevey, baby Longhorns have horns too! :) She thought that was cute.
One morning after breakfast, my dad had everyone meet up at the north end of the ranch near a place called Red Reservoir where he had waiting 13 handcarts which were divided among three separate trails…one trail along the west side of the valley, one along the east side of the valley and one down the middle. Each handcart was assigned to a company of 20 people. Ella, Sam and Neve stayed with me in my company. One handcart per trail was sent out and then the second wave was sent 15 minutes or so later. The trails were far enough apart across the valley you couldn't see each other. However, every quarter of a mile down through the valley we'd come upon a stake in the ground that stood about 4 feet high. Attached to the top was a sign naming a historic site on the Mormon Pioneer Trek such as "Hole in the Rock" or "Elephant Rock" or whatever. Then tacked to the sign post was a short story for someone in the company to read aloud to their company telling the story of what happened at that historic location and a hymn to sing.
I know it sounds very cheesey and trust you me, I did not think my dad could pull it off since not everyone in my family is LDS, let alone active—nor are they hymn singers…but I tell you what, out there in the middle of nowhere, in a small company of 20 people pulling a handcart in the blazing heat across the face of God's creation, its amazing what stirs even the most hardened of heart. We had been provided copies of the hymns so everyone had the words and although we couldn't see the other companies across the valley, we could hear them singing distantly. To be honest, reading some of the experiences the pioneers had at these posts and singing the hymns, I had a hard time fighting back the tears through most of this experience.
My company consisted of my brother John and his family, brother Barry and his family, brother James and his family, sister Natalie and her family and then me and my three stow-aways. Barry and John pulled the hand cart most of the way with Neve and the younger kids riding inside while the rest of us walked along side it.
Sam was asked to be the trail scout which mean he had to run ahead and direct them where to pull the cart since there was no cut trail. You can't tell from the pictures, but there were some really rough areas we had to get through along the way. We were the first handcart company to blaze our trail and there were swampy area's and tall grass as well as washes, cracks and crevasses we had to navigate. Sam did a great job and actually performed a valuable service.
The kids were a little nervous to turn their backs on the cattle because the cows had just charged toward us because of the little dog Baxter we had in our company. Texas Longhorns HATE dogs for some reason and come after them fast and hard—its crazy! Luckily they are scared of adults so Barry charged right back at them and they decided to keep their distance, but the kids weren't so sure if the cows considered them to be humans or dogs, so they were all hesitant to take pictures with the cows to their back. :)
One of the pioneer landmarks posted on our trail was "Sweet Water River" where we read the famed event of the young men carrying the members of the Willie Handcart company across the frozen Sweet Water River occurred. At the end of the story pinned to the post it told us we all had to cross the "Sweet Water River" so here is Sam doing it Sammy style. :)
As I mentioned, it was blazing hot. Neve also had a job. She wanted to do her part to help by passing out water to everyone to keep them hydrated. Here she's handing water to my brother Barry.
I had warned the kids on the drive down that they would probably see wild life at the ranch. I told them stories of catching horny toads as a kid up here and to them my description of said horned toad sounded almost mythical. However, lo and behold on our trek several were caught and here you have one of the cute little guys hanging out on our shoulders. :)
Sam dared have it hang out—Ella…not so much, so I just got a pic with her and little toad in it. Can you see him? :)
We decided to have all the primary kids do the final pull on in to camp as we sang the primary song "Pioneer Children". They did such an awesome job!
At the closing ceremonies of our Trek experience, each company leader chose one person from their company to award the "Pioneer Spirit" award too. Our company leader, Barry, chose "Little Sam the Scout". Here is Sam with his award—pioneer soap, which Barry's wife Pam really wanted, so Sam traded her for a bag of pioneer candy she received as the song leader for our company. Good trade Sammy!
As far as animals...so far the kids had riden horses, been up close and personal with Texas Longhorns, caught a horny toad and, well, of course played with Baxter the dog…but so far they had only seen one dead rattle stake on the horseback trail ride and a harmless water snake in the marshy part of the valley we trekked through. All of that changed when Sammy came across a live Rattler on a 4 wheeler ride with my nephew Sean. You'll have to ask Sam for the details, but from what I heard, Sam wrestled the beast and chewed its head off with his bare teeth!
In any case, Sean skinned it up and BBQ'ed it for lunch. Surprisingly none of my tag-alongs wanted to try it. April said they were picky eaters, but SHEESH! I thought they would gobble this up for sure!! Picky picky picky!!
Sam wasn't the only one fixated on dead animals though. I found Ella out playing with this Longhorn Skull that apparently stinks judging by Kylies face--who knew?? By this point I was beginning to think these little Hendrickson kids were a little demented and morbid...I mean, who in their right mind plays with dead animals??
Little Neve decided she'd stick to cute wild life like this squirrel she spotted when I took her out for a ride on one of the quads
They sure loved the quads—even when they weren't moving, these goofballs goofed around on them
Now it wasn't ALL sunshine and roses. One afternoon the thunder rolled and the lightning struck so everyone went back to their cabins to take cover. Instead of us four going back to our cabin we headed to Cabindale…my parents cabin (Named after my dad, Dale) where all my siblings were congregating.
The younger kids did what we all used to do as kids before cellphones and Atari…just kidding, I'm not THAT old! Sheesh!...What I mean is, all the younger kids sat on the kitchen floor and played a game they all made up which entailed putting their feet together to make a giant circle/star and then flinging tiny game piece tiles from a half-lost game across the floor at each other. I'm not sure of the rules, but you can ask Neve cuz she played it for about an hour.
The younger kids did what we all used to do as kids before cellphones and Atari…just kidding, I'm not THAT old! Sheesh!...What I mean is, all the younger kids sat on the kitchen floor and played a game they all made up which entailed putting their feet together to make a giant circle/star and then flinging tiny game piece tiles from a half-lost game across the floor at each other. I'm not sure of the rules, but you can ask Neve cuz she played it for about an hour.
Once the rain let up enough to where it was just sprinkling, these same tiny kids ventured out on the deck where they commenced in hiding under a pick nick table on the deck and telling ghost stories…Oooooh, scary!!
I'm not quite sure I'm allowed to tell you what the caption of this picture should be with Neve and my nephew Landon…Neve might beat me up! But I'll let you make up your own. :)
During the rainy cabin time, while the little kids played games, Sam decided to whip up a card game in the center of the family room. It was funny cuz Sam didn't hang out with kids his age…no, he decided the teenagers were more his style and as soon as he started talking, they all just flocked to him. It was funny to watch. Talk about charisma! Here he is wheelin' and dealin' telling them all how to play.
I think there must have been something in the that rain water cuz while Neve's out side on the deck getting' her groove on, what started out as an innocent card game for Sam soon turned into table top dancing…I mean, who's kids ARE these anyways?? Ella kept asking if I had any poles and I had to tell her no!
Its surprising what is entertaining when you are hulled up in a cabin with a bunch of crazy people!
These three had really taken' a liking to the Cowboy life style. You can see here, that Sam no longer cared for the wimpy soft cushion of a cheap ranch mattress…he liked the cold hard ground like a true cowpoke out on the open range of the prairie.
Finally the day arrived when we had to pack up for home. Up until this time the kids had not dragged their feet to get up and moving once. On this last morning they were all up early, bright eyed and bushy tailed as usual, but getting them to put a single thing in their bags was a joke!
Finally after I told them one of my favorite things was still ahead, they started packing up. Little Nevey even rolled her own bedroll:
Here Neve's reminiscing about riding Mary while Ella helps Sam roll his bedroll up in the back:
Once Sam saw Neve…well, the "Horse" play started all over again!
....And before I knew it, all of them were riding bucking bronco bedrolls all over the front room bouncing from one mattress to the next to the next! Here is their reenactment of our trail ride. See Butterscotch sniffing Sunny's butt?
Once the kids finally got packed up we headed up to the north end of the ranch where I put my SUV to the test and climbed up to Powell Point to show the kids a breathtaking view of the ranch from up on top of the pink cliffs.
In the back ground at the top of the pictures, the light green flat part is the valley we trekked through.
Crazy Sam dancing in the back ground. He was so excited to be that high up!
Neve danced too. She wasn't sure she wanted to go up to the pink cliffs when we were packing up. She didn't want to leave the cabin. But then once we got up there, it was highly likely I wasn't going to get her off the mountain and back down. She did not want to leave.
Here Ella figured out how we brush our hair Cowboy style…Step one: nestle up against a tree. Step two: walk away. Repeat: It must have worked cuz Ollie, the trail boss for the horses kept asking me how I got her hair so shiney and golden! Now my secret is out. :)
The only time they stirred was when we would stop and I'd make them get out and earn their keep!
In the words of the infamous Porky Pig....Ibity Ibity Ibity...That's all folks!
The End

Nas - Black President
Artist: Nas
Producer: DJ Green Lantern
Album: The N*gger Tape [Hosted by Green Lantern]
Avg Rating: 4.2 ( 77 total votes )
With Barack Obama's victory earlier this week, the famous lyrics of 2pac Shakur, "And though it seems heaven-sent / We ain't ready to have a black President," ring false for the first time ever. Though Obama has not won anything just yet, his place in this November's election is both monumental and historic. Similar to Obama, veteran emcee Nas has preached change, both in the form of hip hop and in which people perceive usage of the word "n*gger." Though his forthcoming summer release will no longer hold the controversial title, Esco has hooked up with DJ Green Lantern to release a pre-album mixtape, entitled The N*gger Tape. The first joint to leak off the album (Yo, Lowkey) is the Lantern-produced, Black President.
Note: The streaming of "Black President" has temporarily been suspended.

Award-Winning No Assembly Required No Batteries Required Asmodee 7 Wonders 7 Wonders lasts three ages. In each age, players receiv...e seven cards from a particular deck, choose one of those cards, then pass the remainder to an adjacent player, as in Fairy Tale or a Magic: the Gathering booster draft. Players reveal their cards simultaneously, paying resources if needed or collecting resources or interacting with other players in various ways. (Players have individual boards with special powers on which to organize their cards, and the boards are double-sided as in Bauza's Ghost Stories.) Each player then chooses another card from the deck they were passed, and the process repeats until players have six cards in play from that age. After three ages, the game ends. In essence 7 Wonders is a card development game along the lines of Race for the Galaxy or Dominion. Some cards have immediate effects, while others provide bonuses or upgrades later in the game. Some cards provide discounts on future purchases. Some provide military strength to overpower your neighbors and others give nothing but victory points. Unlike Magic or Fairy Tale, however, each card is played immediately after being drafted, so you'll know which cards your neighbor is receiving and how his choices might affect what you've already built up. Cards are passed left-right-left over the three ages, so you need to keep an eye on the neighbors in both directions. For 3 to 7 players Play time of 30 minutes 7 wonders is a simple and addictive game for the whole family In 30 minutes you can raise a complete civilization and build the greatest Wonders of the World Product Measures: 11.2" x 3" x 11.2" Recommended Ages: 10 years and up Weight: 2.75 lb Read More

From the designer of Glen More comes a new title published by Queen Games: Lancaster.

 In 1413, the new king of England,... Henry V of Lancaster, has ambitious plans: The unification of England and the conquest of the French crown! Each player takes the role of an ambitious aristocratic family. Who will be the best supporter of this young king, and the most powerful Lord of his time?

 In Lancaster the players want to proceed from simply being a Lord to the most powerful ally of the king. They may achieve this by developing their own knighthood as well as by clever deployment of individual knights in the counties of England, at their own castle, and to conflicts with France. In parliament, they try to push laws from which they will benefit themselves most. The player with the most power points at the end of the game is the winner.

 Every turn, players send their knights to the different locations:
 ? Counties, where they compete with knights from other players for rewards and the favor of the nobles.
 ? The castle, to receive income or new knights.
 ? Into conflict with France, where all players combine their power and try to gain power points.

 In the counties the strength of the knights is important as you can remove the knight of another player by placing a knight of your own with higher strength in the same location. Read More

Formula D is also the excitement of illegal racing in the streets of big cities - anything goes: custom cars nitro acceleration drifting in the curves dirty tricks... The game mechanics stay the same but use specific rules cars and tracks. This edition of Formula D comes with 2 boards: Monaco and Muscle Cars. Although it will be compatible with the old edition boards those boards will not be reprinted. Instead new boards will be created to expand the available tracks for more racing fun.

Helvetia Cup
Explore ancient temples in search of tresure! This sequal to the award winning Tikal, integrates careful gameplay mechanics and dr...amatic tension as players compete for the most gold. 2-4 Players, 90 min. Tikal was discovered and explored during a very successful expedition led by Profs. Kramer and Kiesling. A decade later, a scroll is found, that hints of a lost temple near the first site. This rumor rekindles their passion for Tikal and the two scientists start to discuss the prospect of another expedition to Central America. In the midst of their planning they encounter Profs. Braff and Pauchon at an international archaeology conference in Geneva, who want to know the truth about the enticing rumor. Later that day, sitting in front of a roaring fire, after a fine meal, finished off with Cuban cigars, and a few brandies, the two Swiss scientists listen enthralled by the unfolding plans of their German colleagues. To a man they clamor their unanimous assent and it is decided to join forces and go back to Tikal. Appointments are made, patrons are found, equipment is assembled, notes are compared, and then they are off. An uneventful journey takes them to Guatemala, and then on to the old site. Not too long after, they discover that there is indeed an undisturbed temple, in an adjacent valley. As it belonged to a long-forgotten king, the temple promises many surprises and much, much gold.

A brand new era for Axis & Allies, the First World War!

For the first time ever players can experience Axis & Allies in the setting of World War I. The familiar, time-tested A&A rules have been adapted to let players control the armies of 1914. Pick up this title to enjoy a classic favorite in a whole new way!

New major powers, alliances, maps, and unit sculpts!

WWI 1914 gives players command of the mighty armies of eight major powers. The Central Powers of Germany, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the Ottoman Empire are aligned against the great alliance of France, the British Empire, the Russian Empire, Italy and the United States on a new game board extending from Washington, DC to Bombay, India. 22 all-new unit sculpts are included, and enfranchised players will be pleased to see WWI units, like biplanes, in Axis & Allies for the first time.

Designer Larry Harris notes...

"While playing this game, you will quickly realize that this is not World War II. There are no massive sweeps across continents with blitzing armored divisions and aircraft. Instead, there are a series of determined offensives resisted by equally determined armies dedicated to holding the line. You will find that your depleting resources of men and artillery must be deployed with great thought and efficiency. You will be fighting pretty much the way man has been fighting with each other for thousands of years ? only this time the ability to kill your enemy, and for him to kill you, has become intolerably efficient."

Virgin Queen: Wars of Religion 1559-1598 is a game of grand strategy for two to six players based on the military, political and r...eligious conflicts within Europe during the reigns of Elizabeth I of England and Philip II of Spain. Each player controls one or more of the major powers that presided over European politics in that day. Spain is the juggernaut, able to draw upon the vast riches of their global empire. But such a dominant power is sure to have many enemies. The Ottoman expansion towards Spain's Mediterranean outposts remains unchecked. Elizabeth's English sea dogs are poised to raid Spain's overseas empire. And the forces of Protestant reform will soon drag Spain into eighty years of rebellion in the Netherlands. Will Spain find aid from its Catholic allies? Perhaps not from France, where the Catholic Valois dynasty is soon to engage another group of Protestant believers in the bloody French Wars of Religion. And even Philip's relatives in Vienna who rule the Holy Roman Empire may dabble in the Protestant faith instead of remaining loyal to their Catholic heritage and Spanish brethren.

Virgin Queen is the sequel to Here I Stand, another card-driven game of grand strategy that covered the previous forty years (from Martin Luther's posting of his 95 Theses in 1517 through the abdication of Charles V in 1556). Players familiar with Here I Stand will find much that is familiar in Virgin Queen: over half of the rulebook remains unchanged. New game systems have been put in place to emphasize the changing nature of the conflicts here in the late 16th Century:

Religion: Streamlined from Here I Stand, the new rules for religious conversion and rebellion allow actions to be resolved quickly, reflecting the already entrenched presence of both Catholic and Protestant factions across the key areas of religious struggle.

Revolution: The Dutch Revolt simulates the Eighty Years' War between Spain and the Netherlands. This epic struggle lasted from 156...8 until 1648 and eventually brought independence to Holland and the northern provinces. In the south, the revolt was less successful and Belgium did not emerge as an independent state until after the Napoleonic era. During the initial stages of the struggle, William of Orange became the symbol of freedom. His main adversary was the Spanish King Philip II, who sent in the Duke of Alba with his formidable conquistadores to stop the rebellion.

Revolution: The Dutch Revolt 1568-1648 is a game of skill for 2 to 5 players. It depicts a power struggle in which each player represents one of the principal factions involved, the Catholics, Habsburgs, Nobility, Burghers and Reformers. Some factions tend to have similar outlooks but they are not allies - each has its own motives and objectives. These may be summarized, very briefly, as follows:

? The Catholics want to preserve the status quo in the area, implying the supremacy of the Catholic faith and secular rule by Spanish (Habsburg) masters.
? The Habsburgs (who are Catholic) are determined to govern the provinces under their military authority and quell rebellion.
? The Nobility are Netherlanders who, initially, owe their position to the Habsburgs and who obviously wish to maintain their own power and estates.
? The Burghers want to be free of the excesses of taxation and centralization so that trade and industry can flourish. They see the value of religious tolerance in helping to bring this about.
? The Reformers want religious freedom, which means in practice that many people will become Protestants, and hope that this will bring peace to the region.

This game is not a detailed military re-enactment of the Eighty Years� War. It tries to capture the flavor of these interesting times in a much broader sense. It contains an element of Read More

"Me and my team had a team outing for Cinco de Mayo and the shirts turned out to be a hit, because no other team thought of this idea."
Create a unique t-shirt design for Cinco de Mayo this year! CustomInk has all the tools you need to make the perfect Cinco de Mayo t-shirts - from our extensive clipart selection to our popular t-shirt brands (including American Apparel and Hanes), we've got you covered! Take a look at the customer photos below for Cinco de Mayo t-shirt ideas.
"Me and my team had a team outing for Cinco de Mayo and the shirts turned out to be a hit, because no other team thought of this idea."
"These tank tops were made for our annual reunion at the lake. We celebrated Cinco de Mayo in style this year! CustomInk was awesome to work with and shipped everything so fast! We loved the tanks!"
"This was at a cinco de mayo fiesta at Chevys restaurant in Miami Florida. In the picture with me are my cousins and my two brother in laws. My experience with Customink was great. Easy and quick design process, and the Satisfaction associate was very helpful throught the entire process. "
"About 50 of my friends got together for a Cinco de Mayo / End of the school year bar tour! We chose Customink because they offered the color of shirt that we wanted, as well as, awesome graphics! Our event was a hit and everyone loved the shirts! We could spot our friends from a mile away!"
"This picture was taken at Midnight on Cinco De Mayo for Nick's (the guy in the middle) 21st birthday celebration at Santa Clara University."
"The shirts were a hit, with everyone asking where we got them made at. We even attracted other people who had custom shirts made locally. Fun times, we still hear about those shirts when we go to the bars that we were at that day."
"Cinco De Mayo we entered the campus of the University of Iowa to take over all of the bars and have a great time. Custom Ink did an outstanding job with our shirts and I wish I had brought more because everyone wanted one."
"We were part of an MS Walk on Cinco de Mayo. Everyone liked the shirts so much when I started passing them out that I had more people walking than I had shirts for! It was a great day, but the "lost" part of our name came true as one of the groups became "lost". Thankfully, we "found" them! =o) My experience with Customink the last two events has been wonderful! The shirts are SO popular, I've been asked to reorder =o)"
"This photograph was taken at our 6th bar of the day on our first ever Cinco de Mayo Pub Crawl at Western Illinois University. We had 101 Custom Ink t-shirts printed for our event!!"

Sad to say the project was a done deal as far as the SR Council is concerned before the public ever heard of it. Your group needs to raise money now to hire experts and an attorney to document the flaws in the EIR, then sue the City after they approve it for failure to comply with CEQA. If they need a rezoning, you could do a referendum on it immediately after it is approved. Also, why is this land a "Preserve" and now it can be built out? You better check into that right away.

Dr. Dave Hnida's Blog
A Super ER At The Super Bowl … In A Tractor Trailer
The Super Bowl is a production beyond anything else in the world of sports. So how do you take care of a fan who might need emergency medical attention at the game? Basically, you bring the emergency medical care to them. CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida takes a look at something rarely seen at any game — an ER on wheels. Eighteen wheels, to be exact.
Will Fixing 'Low T' Also Break Your Heart?
Guys, you can't help escaping the message that you may be suffering from "low T", or low testosterone. And a trip to the doctor may be smart move to see if you can boost your energy, strength, and sex drive. But now the FDA is taking a closer look at testosterone products to make sure they are safe. And as CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida reports, there is also a question of these products being marketed as a quick fix for everything that ails the American male.
Is It A Cold Or The Flu?
Lots of germs attacking us here in Colorado. How do you know whether it's a simple cold, or the dreaded "flu"? CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida explains why it's important to know the difference — and how to use the "FACTS" to tell.
What's With The Big Helmet?
Wes Welker ran onto the field last week with a new–giant– helmet. The question is: does that new design prevent concusiions. And if so, why arent all players wearing them? CBS4 Medical Editor Dr Dave Hnida looks at the "new" helmet.
But It's Only Tylenol …
With cold and flu rampant in Colorado, here's a warning about using a popular pain and fever reliever — acetaminophen — the active ingredient in Tylenol. But as CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida reports, more than 600 products contain acetaminophen, making it easy to overdose — and suffer liver failure.
Which Position Suffers The Most Concussions?
No question football is violent, especially when it comes to the head. With 22 guys crashing into each other at full speed, which position is the riskiest? CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida looks at the stats.
The No-Resolution Resolutions
New Year's means more than flipping a calendar, or writing the wrong date repeatedly. It's also the time for resolutions. The problem is: only 8% of resolutions are successful at the one-year mark. CBS4 Medical Editor Dr Dave Hnida looks at the most popular (and hardest to keep) resolutions– and offers a short list of vows that may be a little easier, and more practical to live with.
Get Ready. Get Set. Get Sick.
Welcome to the influenza season of 2013-2014.
Health officals say the bug has hit hard and fast– and it you haven't had your flu vaccine, it's not to late… but you had better hurry up. CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida reports on the worst season since 2009.
Please Eat The Cake, But Not The Decorations
Nothing like a nice piece of cake to celebrate an occasion — just be sure you stop at the cake, and don't mindlessly swallow everything else in sight. CBS4 Medical Editor Dr. Dave Hnida reports on a case of a person who went a little overboard when it was time for dessert.
Why Von Miller May Have Failed His Lachman Test … And What It Means To The Broncos
The Broncos won the game, but may have lost Von Miller. After suffering a knee injury, Miller was quickly declared out for the rest of the game. Up next: an MRI. CBS4 Medical Editor Dr Dave Hnida explains how doctors and trainers test a knee on the field for an early diagnosis.

HTC phones
HTC 7 Mozart review
The HTC 7 Mozart is the third Windows® Phone OS 7 phones for us to review. We've previously reviewed the HTC HD7 and the Samsung Omnia 7. Whilst the HD7 and the Omnia 7 are monster phones with enormous displays, the Mozart is more like a "normal" phone, although all three cost about the same on a monthly contract. What then, is the unique offering of the Mozart?
The clue, presumably, lies in its name. It's going to be a music phone, right? Well, here's the thing: all of the Windows 7 phones have strong music credentials. With the same digital music player embedded in each phone, plus similar headphones bundled in the sales package and either 8GB or 16GB internal memory, all three that we've reviewed seem to offer pretty much the same thing. The differentiating factor of the Mozart is something called SRS WOW HD™, which to be honest didn't strike us as being anything as jaw-dropping as its name suggests. In essence it's virtual surround sound with better bass, and to be fair it's a match for any other mobile phone. Just don't expect it to turn your phone into some kind of home cinema!
Interestingly then, the thing that the Mozart excels at turns out to be photography. Whilst the other Windows 7 phones have a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, the Mozart has an 8 megapixel camera with a far brighter xenon flash. It also has HD video recording.
Apart from the improved camera and music features, the Mozart is very much like the other Windows phones, except that it's more compact. It's a great looking phone in fact, with a very solid brushed aluminium casing giving it an air of quality and a solid feel. Not everyone is giving the new operating system the thumbs up, but we think that's unfair. It's a new OS with some areas that will undoubtedly be polished in future updates, and it starts off with some good core apps, although it lacks the thousands of third-party apps that you'll get with an iPhone or with Android. Perhaps this is a phone better suited to grown-ups.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Seagate Technology Inc. STX, +0.79% and Western Digital Corp. WDC, +0.92% both saw their shares fall more than 3% on Friday morning after Citigroup downgraded the two hard-drive makers to a sell rating. In a note to clients, analyst Joe Yoo cited "overwhelming signs of further demand deterioration of not only PCs, but enterprise as well." He believes there is a 20%-25% "downside risk" to the Street's earnings estimates for both companies in the fourth quarter. "Our recent work suggests that the struggling PC market could get worse near-term, and the bar has not been set low enough for next year," he wrote. Seagate shares were last down 3.8% to $27.17, while Western Digital was down 3.3% to $35.38.

Shop the Editors' Work Christmas Party Picks: What We Want, Now by Alison Parr 28/11/12 6 Reactions 2 Shares Print 0 0 2 0 0 Deciding what you wear to your end-of-year work Christmas party is an important call. You want to something that says celebratory without jeopardising your professional cred. Our tip is to keep the silhouette proper, but have fun with colour and embellishment. A pair of punchy palazzo pants? Perfect. A pair of silver-foiled skinny jeans? You got the idea. The Sugar pod have kindly submitted their top two office-shindig selects for your perusal, so step inside and get inspired. Just for goodness sake, watch your champas intake and save your best dirty dancing for a GNO. What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I love the idea of a statement pair of pallazzo pants for a night out. I'd wear with a spaghetti-strap white tank and the highest heels I own. — Ali, FabSugar editor Pants, $460, camilla and marc 1 / 10 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 It's tempting to go for all-out sparkles, but I'm resisting the urge to buy a fully-sequinned number for something a that's still festive but a little more restrained. This metallic skirt will be great to eat and dance in, but I can also wear it all year round. — Jess, PopSugar editor Skirt, approx $58, Need Supply Co. 2 / 10 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I like to keep things fun yet still appropriate for work functions, and this dress has just enough sex-appeal without being too "nightclub". — Marisa, publisher Dress, $333, Three Floor at Shopbop 3 / 10 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 For the Christmas parties that are a little more low-key, these metallic jeans will be perfect. I'll add impossibly high stilettos, a lace bralet, sheer black shirt and red lips! — Alison, BellaSugar editor Jeans, approx $168, J Brand at SSENSE 4 / 10 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I'm into printed sets at the moment and I think it would be cool to try a matching top-and-skirt combo instead of a dress for a work Christmas party.

Brooks Kraft receives the 2013 International Photographer of the Year Award

Brooks Kraft/Corbis
Corbis is thrilled to congratulate Brooks Kraft for receiving the 2013 International Photographer of the Year Award Sunday night at the Lucie Awards Gala at Carnegie Hall in New York City.
Great political photography is no longer primarily about access, as images of private moments have become almost commonplace; it is about the clear and creative vision that can see through the masses. Brooks Kraft has successfully created a uniquely stunning series of images shot from within a pack of press photographers.
"The Last Days of Barack Obama's Campaign" follows the American President during the final days of the long 2012-election cycle. In a mad dash to the finish, President Obama travelled around the country holding multiple large rallies a day in front of crowds of tens of thousands. Elaborate staging and highly choreographed movements resembled a Hollywood production, with all eyes focused on President Obama.
On Sunday, Brooks said that he was "impressed with the depth and personal nature of all the work from all walks of photography" represented by the International Photography Awards and honored to have his work selected from "an incredibly diverse and exquisite group of images from around the world."
Brooks became an IPA finalist after being awarded 1st Place in the Editorial: Political Professional category and becoming the overall Editorial Finalist for professionals.
IPA is a sister-effort of the Lucie Foundation, where the top winners are announced at the annual Lucie Awards gala ceremony. The Foundation's mission is to honor master photographers, to discover new and emerging talent and to promote the appreciation of photography. The 2013 International Photography Awards received over 10,000 submissions from 103 countries.

I'm trying to add a second diary component to the homepage of my VLE here however in place of where this should appear I get the message "There is already a diary component in this page". If I remove the first component, the second shows as expected!! Surely there must be a way around this!?
They are pointing to different diary accounts, not the same one.
I've created a separate page for each which is then added to a nested page/User brick thinking this would get round the problem seeing as each is on a separate page initially but it's as if the main dashboard page just can't cope with this.
