All welcome to play
This the first race of the Classics Predictor Game, similar in concept to our GT stage predictor game. There's no commitment to a season-long team of riders here. Instead, you pick 4 riders that you like for each spring classic, one race at a time. Picks here are for Omloop only.
This is all you need to know to play
Pick 4 riders for Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and post them in a comment below, the order doesn't matter. Riders score points down to 10th place. Less obvious riders are worth considering: if they get a decent top-10 result, they can score more points in this game than a big-name favorite.
If we have enough interest for Omloop, I will run this for all the spring classics, cobbles and hills. There will be a standalone result for each race, and I will aggregate the results for an overall season winner. All 14 races will score equally for the overall competition.
1. Omloop Het Nieuwsblad
2. Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne
3. Strade Bianche
4. Milan-San Remo
5. Dwars door Vlaanderen
6. E3 Prijs
7. Gent-Wevelgem
8. Ronde Van Vlaanderen
9. Scheldeprijs
10. Paris-Roubaix
11. Brabantse Pijl
12. Amstel Gold
13. La Flèche Wallonne
14. Liège-Bastogne-Liège
You don't have to play every race and target the overall competition - feel free to join in any time to play a standalone race, the more the merrier.
Omloop Het Nieuwsblad
This FanPost is for entries to the Omloop on Saturday 23rd February, post your entry in a comment below. I'll put up a new FanPost for entries to Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne as soon as Omloop finishes.
Entry deadline Saturday 13:00 CET
That's early morning in the U.S. - 7am EST, 4am PST. The deadline is 90 minutes into the race, just before the first helling. If you enter after the race starts you can't pick anyone in a break! Earlier entrants are not disadvantaged - you're free to change your picks (but just once, please) until the entry deadline. Do this in a reply to your original entry.
Scoring details
All 4 of your riders can score.
The top 10 finishers score points according to this basic scale from race winner down to 10th place:
However, if riders of all abilities scored the same, we'd all just be picking the big favorites all the time. So we multiply the scale above by a rider's payoff percentage based on the number of players that pick him. More picks, lower payoff. The highest possible payoff for a really unlikely outsider picked by less than 3% of players is 100% of the scale above; the lowest possible payoff for a hot favorite picked by more than 80% of players is 20% of the the scale above. Here's the full sliding scale, from least popular to most popular riders:
(intermediate percentages interpolated; scores rounded to nearest 0.1)
Here's an example result, based on last year's race:
If you're not familiar with this kind of scoring scheme from the Giro & TdF Stage Predictor games last year, just play along for a couple of races and it will soon make sense. All you need to do is pick the 4 riders that you like for the race. A good strategy might be to go for two big names and two outsiders that you fancy for a breakout result.

A bobcat kitten bit a teenager when she tried to rescue it near Azle, and that wasn't the only animal wrangling in Parker County this week.
Around midnight on July 2, a 16-year-old girl found the juvenile bobcat off Veal Station Road near Azle. The girl's mother told the Sheriff's Office her daughter thought the bobcat's mother had been injured and the kitten was abandoned.
As the girl tried to rescue and cage the wild cat, it bit her, puncturing her right index finger. She was taken to the hospital, treated and released.
The kitten was captured and is now at a rescue facility under quarantine. After the quarantine period is over, the bobcat will remain in the rescue facility's care.
The very next day, Parker County Animal Control officers were called to the town of Reno to catch a baby with even sharper teeth -- a small alligator.
The reptile, about 18-inches long, was discovered in someone's garage off Old Reno Road. Some youngsters had managed to secure it in a plastic bucket until animal control officers arrived.
Parker County officials called the Texas Parks and Wildlife game warden, who in turn called the Fort Worth Nature Center and Refuge. The center agreed to take the small alligator and hope it will become part of its children's educational programs.

And it's President Bush's fault. Pro Ecclesia relays a Chicago Sun-Times story that seems short on the facts of life, and on financial perspective. The theme is supposed to be that the removal of birth control subsidies for colleges are getting college students pregnant. The story opens with a 20-year-old pre-med student who is having to miss her planned trip to Costa Rica because she stopped using birth control when her prescription cost at the university clinic went up from $10 to $35.
I assume that it wasn't simply ceasing to use the birth control but also some other extra-curricular activities that ended the young lady in her current condition, but as she's a pre-med student I guess I can figure that one out for herself even if the reporter can't.
Now, as someone who at age 20 got through each college semester on around $250 in spending money: color me unsympathetic. By age 20, you should be able to do some basic math and use your brain a little. If you're planning a trip to Costa Rica, you have at least some money. And yet the sum of $25 (best measured in college as two pizzas and a six pack of beer) was apparently enough to encourage this student to stop taking birth control, but not stop having sex. Without consideration for the fact that raising a child is generally an expense of more than $25.
If people can't be virtuous, you'd think they could at least think.

News: Chris Brown, Juelz Santana, T-Pain & More Headline Haiti Benefit Concert
Monday, Apr 19, 2010 5:25PM
R&B singer Chris Brown has put together a Haiti benefit concert next month that will feature performances by Juelz Santana, T-Pain, Keri Hilson and more.
The event will take place in his hometown Richmond, Virginia.
Chris Brown will headline and host the benefit concert, "Virginia Stand Up! A Call to Action," in Richmond, Virginia, on May 15, 2010. Brown will close the show, performing tracks from his latest album "Graffiti," as well as hits from his previous two albums. He will be joined by Keri Hilson, Trey Songz, T-Pain, Ryan Leslie, Mario and Juelz Santana. The event, a LiveNation and Haymon production, will be held at the Siegel Center, located at the Virginia Commonwealth University. All proceeds from the concert will benefit the American Red Cross, Greater Richmond Chapter, to support their relief efforts in Haiti, and The Central Virginia Food Bank. (Billboard)
Brown has also released a statement regarding the concert.
"I wanted to find a way to contribute personally to the ongoing Haitian relief effort and also support an organization that helps people in need in my home state," says Brown. "The images I see on television, both in my community and in Haiti, remind me that everyone has to do their part." (Statement)
Last February, artists like Lil Wayne, Diddy, Wyclef Jean and more came together for a benefit concert.
Lil Wayne, Wyclef Jean, Mary J. Blige and Sean 'Diddy' Combs have announced plans for another Haiti concert. They will join a host of hip-hop acts including Pharrell Williams, Chris Brown and Queen Latifah at the Black Entertainment TV (BET) two hour event 'SOS Saving OurSelves - Help for Haiti', which will be broadcast live from Miami on February 5. The event will air on US TV channels MTV, VH1, BET and Centric at 8pm EST. Meanwhile, Wyclef Jean has hinted that his former band Fugees may reform and record a charity single to raise money for the victims of the earthquake. (New Lil Wayne)
The earthquake took place last January.
The major earthquake that struck Haiti on Tuesday may lead to hundreds of millions of dollars of insured losses, risk assessor Eqecat said, an amount that could have been higher had underwriters loosened their standards. Eqecat indicated that insured buildings often must meet a higher standard and therefore may sustain less damage. However, the company said Haiti's magnitude 7.0 earthquake, whose epicenter was just 10 miles (16 km) from the capital of Port-au-Prince, "is very severe, and even well-designed buildings could expect damage from this event." (Reuters)
No further details have been revealed as of now.

We are proud to announce that Hexodius is now live on XBLA !
We're waiting for you on the leaderboards !
Here we are, after two years of hard work, Hexodius is finally out !
You can try the demo and get the full game on Steam right here !
Enjoy !
Hi everybody !
Hexodius is out tomorrow on Steam but you can already check out a preview of the soundtrack over here :
You can listen and download the full lenght soundtrack for free here http://hexodius.bandcamp.com/
Be sure to check the websites of the two musicians who worked on this soundtrack if you like it :
Stuff : soundcloud.com/stuff-1
Vincent Pavone : www.vincentpavone.com
Hi everyone, if you want to see how Hexodius looks like in action, take a look at our fresh new teaser :
In the Hexodius' story mode you will have to find your way out by exploring this labyrinthine complex scattered across several dimensions.
We wanted to give a "board game like" feeling to the exploration of the complex to have a nice balance with the frantic arena gameplay. We came up, after a few other approaches, with a hexagonal grid where you can freely move and decide quietly what will be your next move. Your main concern is to discover where is the special cell that gives you access to the next world.
Here are some of the cell types you will encounter and interact with on the grid:
These cells are the foundations of the grids level design, by interacting with them you will experience the different aspects of Hexodius: battle in an arena (3 different game modes), access to the shop, repair yourself, scan the world for secret items, face mighty bosses and more…
Here is the example of how it looks like when we are designing a new world (this is not an actual world of the game):
And this is how it looks like in game (after some work on the visual aspect of course):
You'll need a key to open a locked cell and reveal more of the grid. Try to explore the world, some arenas contain items to loot.
The locations of some important cells are already revealed, it can help you to choose your way when several options are available.
Fred has managed to build the B.O.B – Z.1.0.3 to help him escape from the Hexodius complex. It will never share its engineering tricks to anyone but we can share with you some of the details of its designing process…
The main idea when we started designing B.O.B was its ability to carry four different types of equipment and use them during battles. Here's the evolution of the drone's design throughout the different development levels:
Before each battle you can tweak the equipment of B.O.B and customize it, using your favorite combination. The top-down view approach and the customization interface were key influence factors when choosing BOB's design. Here is an in game screenshot of the customization phase:
B.O.B – Z.1.0.3 awaits you on the customization bench ! Find smart combinations out of the 20 weapons and 20 upgrades waiting to be unlocked in the game.
There are plenty of equipments combinations to find, changing the way you play. From long distance shooting to close combat, you should not be out of options to battle your way through arenas. Here are some of the equipments you will be able to use:
Each equipment involves a different play style, you can equip four of them at the same time.
Stay tuned for more !
That's right guys, we can finally announce that Hexodius will be heading to PC this June 21st via Steam and is coming to Xbox Live® in autumn 2013 !
For the occasion, we added new screenshots to the game page !
Do not hesitate to leave comments and stay tuned for more information during the upcoming weeks !
We are happy to announce that our first game Hexodius is one of the winners of the Ganuta competition. The project has also won the Ankama price, giving us the opportunity of an appearance in IG magazine.
Thank you all for your support !
The Brain Slap team.
It's time to introduce the sound designer who will be behind Hexodius : Stuff !
To show you what he is capable of and how Hexodius will sound like, we share with you one of the tracks he made for the project :
If you enjoy it, you can check more of his work on his soundcloud page.

Didnt like the that there was not a lot of flavor.
Reviewed Mar. 25, 2013
My kids didn't like this soup very much. I had to add chicken broth and salt and pepper, and even then they barely touched it. I think it is a good recipe for adults as long as you add broth, salt, and pepper- but not very kid friendly.

I have made this soup several times now and I haven't changed a thing. My entire family loves it.

THE GOOD. We chose to use HAL's Flightease and will use it again. Flightease books your flight(s), transfers, and hotel stays. There are HAL personnel at every turn to make sure you are taken good care of. I highly recommend Flightease. As we made our way from South Texas towards Seattle, our connection at DFW made us check our carry-ons right at the gate. No time to pull jewelry, cameras, shaving kits, cosmetic bags or anything else. "You can pick them up at baggage claim in Seattle." RIGHT! You guessed it. Our luggage made it fine but no carry-ons. The HAL folks on station in SEA-TAC went right to work to get Alaska Airlines and American Airlines busy finding our bags. The HAL folks at our hotel keep up the pressure and the concierge in the Neptune Lounge on board the Westerdam picked up the baton and continued to work for us - and 30 minutes before the ship sailed, our carry-ons arrived. Yes, I will continue to use Flightease!
THE GOOD. Embarkation went really fast because we booked a Neptune Suite #7085 and a perk is that we were put in a line to check in that was empty while the standard line was quite long. It moved quickly however. As we boarded the ship, we were taken to our already prepared room on a service elevator thereby missing the lines waiting for the regular elevators. This is the first time we have ever had a suite and immensely enjoyed the perks! Particularly the Neptune Lounge and the breakfast in the Pinnacle Grill [reserved for suite guest only]. No brag, just fact.
THE GOOD. The ship had just come from a refit a month before. It was clean and sharp. She looked good. Yes, you can tell that she isn't a new ship, but she is in fine shape. I have nothing negative to say about the Westerdam. All the crew smiled, were friendly, and as helpful as they could be considering that many of them had just started after the refit. The passengers that were on board were mostly older and a mix of nationalities. There were some children but not many and the ones I did notice were well behaved.
THE GOOD AND THE BAD. The food was a mix. Almost everything I ordered came well prepared and tasty, but I'm easy to please. Room service came when we asked for it to be delivered such as when we had an early excursion. Lido was always crowded and we only found someone serving ice cream one time. For a buffet, the Lido is good, but finding a place to sit was a challenge. The MDR was above par. We like "anytime dinning" and especially like to share a table and meet new people. Not every dish was great, not every menu had lots of items I was interest in, but on the whole - very satisfactory. HOWEVER, the Pinnacle Grill at one breakfast didn't bring my DW her meal until the rest of our party had nearly finished our plates! Totally unacceptable. I get better service than that at Dairy Queen. We also chose to dine at "An Evening at Le Cirque" [booked before we sailed]. The meal was quite good until the Chateaubriand, which was overdone. It was still good but the meal wasn't worth the extra fare. The steak in the MDR was ever bit as tasty. As a side note, on the Zuiderdam we went to Le Cirque and had probably the finest meal I have ever had at sea!!!
THE BLAND. There were several evenings where the HAL's entertainers put on a show. They worked hard and showed lots of talent, but the performance wasn't finely tuned. However, give them kudos for on the night with the storm and the bow bouncing in the seas, they trooped on. May have been their best performance. There was a percussion group called Recycled Percussion that played one night. They worked hard but didn't wow me.
THE UGLY. The weather on the way from Ketchikan to Victoria had apparent winds of 75 knots. Now HAL can't control the weather, but the upside was that the ship handled it very well.
CONCLUSION. I do wish that we had more time in each port, but we didn't go to Alaska to visit ports. We went for the scenery which was terrific.
GOOD. Disembarkation seemed to me to be a bit disorganized, but that was my fault. It did start a few minutes late, but when it started - it went really well. Again, Flightease was on the job! There is a program on HAL ships at Seattle where for a minimum fee they take your bags from your room, check them all the way to you destination for you, and even check you in with your airline thereby providing you a boarding pass before you even leave the ship. One nice thing is that you don't have to worry about a bag being overweight. No extra charge for an overweight bag! One of our bags weighed 71 lbs. and we were not charged an overage fee. Do not disembark without taking advantage of this program. I hope your next voyage on Holland America Lines is as wonderful as the ones we have had.

Never used it:O.K. I wa sat the a shop today looking for Butches Bore Shine.They didn't have any ANyway I look at a bottle of Sweets, right at the top of the battle it say's Not harmful to metel.Then in the instuctions it say's do not leave in bore for more than 15 min.This leads me to beleive it is harmful to the bore. Also everyone always says it will ruin a bore if left in it to long.So which is it, Harmful or Not.

If its left in the barrel I think it will harm it. Sweets is STRONG stuff. If you want to clear out copper fouling this solvent will get the job done.
Bullets are pretty worthless. All they do is hang around waiting to get loaded.
Posted 05 April 2006 - 06:22 PM
You definitely don't want to leave it in over 20 minutes. But if you have copper fouling it removes it. I use it and think it's good stuff. But you must be careful with it too. The Butches Bore Shine is safer and what I use mostly at the range. But I carry a bottle of Sweets. When I get home the guns get Wipe-Out and sit overnight.

You may want to try Bore Tech Eliminator,have been using it about a year now and even leave it in the barrel after last patch showed no more copper fouling,Link attached http://www.boretech....introducing.htm

The healthcare exchanges have gotten off to a rough start this week.
Too much traffic and technical glitches have prevented some people from enrolling for insurance.
There are also parts that don't work at all yet.
One version of the web site has been delayed.
When Americans began signing up for insurance on Tuesday, those wanting to complete the forms in Spanish, couldn't.
The Spanish language version of the exchange won't be accepting clients until November.
It's not ready to go.
Quad City Latinos say without that language bridge, they face a big barrier to signing up for insurance.
Buying food for her six children is no problem for Delmis Carranza. Buying health insurance for herself is one.
"Because I'm Spanish I don't speak too much English," says Carranza, who is uninsured.
She's been learning English over the last ten years by interacting with people in public. She has command of the basics, but she's not comfortable with English when it comes to purchasing health insurance.
"Because I don't understand, and I want to understand everything, what's in the plan," says Carranza.
Latino Policy Forum Director Sylvia Puente says, "Understanding our doctor sometimes is complicated even when we're well educated in English, so it gets even more complicated when your first language is not English."
Puente says health insurance reform presents a challenge for many Latinos. One third of whom in Illinois need insurance.
"Word of the mouth is the key resource of outreach in the Latino community," says Puente.
It's word of mouth that often ends up in another Quad City grocery store.
"Even here for anything else people who need help with health insurance or anything, they come and ask can you help us with this," says Daniella Martinez, working at La Primavera Grocery Store.
She estimates about 80 percent of the customers coming into the store speak mostly Spanish. She doesn't understand why the government didn't have its Spanish version web site ready to go.
"Nowadays there's a lot of Hispanics in this country, whatever percentage it is, we're part of the country, we just need to have that available," says Martinez.
As the march toward the first coverage deadline approaches on November 15.

Couples Counseling & Psychotherapy
In arriving here, you've opened the door to an emotionally safe place, a judgment-free zone where you'll find compassion, respect and unconditional support.
For almost 10 years, since earning a master's degree in marriage and family therapy, I've been treating individuals and couples in transition, teens and their families, and adults suffering from depression and anxiety.
My approach is based on Humanistic Therapy, which holds that each of us is inherently worthy and that the path to genuine happiness leads through self-understanding and self-improvement. Within that framework, I offer practical techniques for achieving emotional wellness.
With couples, that may mean dealing with communication and conflict resolution, infidelity, or phase of life/transitions. With individuals, it can take the form of promoting awareness, setting priorities or Mindfulness Cognitive Therapy. With all of my clients, treatment is highly collaborative, carefully tailored to specific goals and frequently informed by creative interests.
It's been said that life is 10 percent what happens to you and 90 percent how you respond to what happens to you. I can help you take control of your responses. Together, we can turn what may seem like insurmountable challenges into opportunities for self-determination, personal growth and ultimately, creating a more meaningful life.
To get started, call 323-393-3678. I hope to see you soon.

BASEBALL UPSETS No. 1 FLORIDA STATE, 5-3
March 21, 2007
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -
It was the perfect setting for the Jacksonville baseball team on Wednesday night.
A record crowd of 3,109 packed Alexander Brest Field to watch a complete team effort from the Dolphins as the JU baseball team ended No. 1 Florida State's 23-game winning streak to open the season with a 5-3 win.
While the win ended FSU's winning streak, it also exorcised some demons for JU - snapping an 18-game losing streak to the Seminoles, a streak that dates back to Feb. 24, 2002. The attendance also broke the previous mark of 2,954 which was set on April 19, 1995, against Florida State.
"To win a game like this, you knew it was going to come down to the last pitch," said JU head coach Terry Alexander. "We knew it was going to take a complete team effort tonight and everyone contributed. Our pitchers threw well - especially out of our bullpen with Tim Brown doing a great job. On offense, we took advantage of the opportunities we got and made the most of them."
The win is also intriguing in JU history as the Dolphins defeated the Seminoles as a No. 1 seed for the first time since 1991. In that 7-4 victory at Dick Howser Stadium, JU snapped FSU's 37-game home winning streak in Terry Alexander's first season as head coach with the Dolphins.
Sophomore Tim Brown (2-2) notched the win after allowing only one hit in 4.1 innings of relief to go along with two strikeouts and no walks. Included in his performance was a streak of eight-consecutive batters retired and two straight innings in which he did not allow a base runner.
Junior Matt Davis earned his fourth save after closing out the last 0.2 innings, including a strikeout looking on Jason Stidham on a 1-2 pitch to end the game. For Davis, it was his second save in as many days after closing out the 6-2 win over Bethune-Cookman last night.
Senior D.J. Ackley earned the no-decision after allowing three runs on four hits with three walks and two strikeouts in three innings.
Offensively, senior first baseman Ryan McArdle provided the biggest blow with a two-run double in the third inning. McArdle, who played the 2006 season with the Seminoles before transferring to JU, put the Seminoles in their biggest deficit of the season with one swing of the bat.
Junior center fielder Kevin Ferreira, freshman third baseman Chuck Opachich (who also made some dazzling plays in the field) and senior right fielder Mike McCallister each recorded a hit and drove in a run for the Dolphins. McCallister also extended his hitting streak to nine games with his base hit in the third.
Caleb Graham (0-1) was tagged with the loss after allowing five runs (one earned) on five hits with two walks and three strikeouts in four innings of work. Jimmy Marshall kept the Seminoles in the contest with four innings of hitless relief.
Buster Posey and Brandon Reichert each finished with two hits and an RBI to lead the Seminoles. Stidham also drove in a run for FSU.
The Seminoles jumped out to an early 1-0 lead in the top of the first when Posey hit an RBI single through the left side with one out.
FSU made it 2-0 in the top of the third when Stidham hit an RBI single to right field with two outs. The Seminoles threatened with runners on first and second and two outs but Ackley struck out Tommy Oravetz on a 0-2 count to end the inning.
The Dolphins took a 4-2 lead in the bottom of the third when freshman third baseman Opachich hit an RBI single up the middle, McCallister hit an RBI single through the left side and McArdle hit a two-run double down the right-field line.
Senior second baseman Logan James led off the inning with a walk and then advanced to second on a fielding error by FSU second baseman Tony Thomas, Jr. on a grounder hit by senior center fielder Kevin Ferreira. In the next at-bat, Opachich drove in James with a sharp base hit back up the middle. With two outs, McCallister hit a high bouncer over the reach of a charging Mark Hallberg at short to score Ferriera. McArdle cleared the bases and put the Dolphins in the lead for good with a double into the right-field corner.
"That was the game-winning hit for us," Alexander said. "Ryan was really nervous in his first at bat but we told him to calm down and just take a pitch down the right field line. He did and it paid off big time for us."
The Seminoles cut the deficit to 4-3 in the top of the fourth when Brandon Reichert hit an RBI single through the right side after a lead off walk to D'Vontrey Richardson.
JU padded the lead to 5-3 in the bottom of the fourth when Ferreira hit an RBI grounder to second.
Senior catcher Donnie Vickers led off the inning with a single up the middle and then advanced to second on a base hit bunt past the mound by James. After both runners advanced on a sacrifice bunt to the mound by junior shortstop Matt Gardner, Ferreira pulled a ball towards second to plate Vickers.
In the ninth inning, Garner entered the game to close out the contest and got Tony Thomas, Jr. to hit a line drive to Ferreira in center field for the first out. After a walk to Hallberg on a 3-1 count, Posey hit a bouncing ball through the left side to put runners on first and second.
Davis entered the game and walked Jack Rye on a 3-1 count to load the bases. In the next at-bat, Davis got Dennis Guinn to pop out to second base for out number two. With Stidham at the plate and the bases still loaded, Davis got Stidham looking with a fastball on the outside corner.
In other odd facts of trivia, Dolphin pitching coach Tim Montez is now 8-0 in his coaching career against opponents which were ranked No. 1 in the nation.
The Dolphins will return to Atlantic Sun Conference play on Friday as JU hosts Kennesaw State at 6:30 p.m.

Former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling was standing in the clubhouse at Fenway Park early in the 2008 season when a member of the team's medical staff suggested he try human growth hormone to help overcome a shoulder injury.
"There were a few people around and I was shocked," Schilling said Thursday. "After this person left, I turned to a teammate and said, 'Can you believe that?' It came out of nowhere."

The Saints released John Carney and Marcus McCauley. We resigned Kyle Eckel and a Safety. Herana-Daze Jones..
Don't know much about him. I think I remember him from his Indiana days but I can't be certain. This is his info:
Jones was signed by the Cincinnati Bengals as a college free agent on April 28, 2005. After spending the 2005 season on the Bengals' practice squad, he made the 53-man roster in 2006. Jones led the Bengals in special teams tackles in both 2006 and 2007. He was placed on injured reserve on October 17, 2008 and released from injured reserve with an injury settlement on November 4, 2008.
Also spent some time in Denver and New England (Training Camp) but missed the final cuts.
Wonder why we're going after a Safety all of the sudden.

My foot is healed and I have no more excuses left. This week back to gym and bootcamp 100%.
I marathon cleaned the house today. Boyf was working all day so I used the time to do chores. But the more I cleaned the more I found to clean :/ Always the way. I made a schedule for the week to try to get on top of the housework so I don't marathon clean every weekend. I've been reading the Unfuck Your Habitat tumblr and they suggest two 20/10's a day. That's two lots of 20 minutes of cleaning followed by 10 minutes of rest in between each 20. 40 minutes of housework a day seems like a lot though. Or is that just how normal people manage to keep their homes clean? I suppose all I'd have to do is 3 or 4 substantial jobs a day to get my 40 minutes worth. IE: wash and hang a load of washing, scrub the shower, empty the bins and change the liners, clear the dining room table or similar. Honestly though after working 9 hours, bootcamp, making dinner and showering I can't seem to manage anything else. Hence my marathon cleaning cycle continues.

NFU Opposed to Proposed Acquisition of Smithfield Foods
National Farmers Union opposes the purchase of Smithfield by the Chinese company Shaunghui. With the news of the proposed acquisition - NFU President Roger Johnson says it's worth considering the impact of increased consolidation of agricultural markets. In one fell swoop - Johnson says 26-percent of U.S. pork processing and 15-percent of domestic hog production will be controlled by a foreign company. He says it's likely the U.S. pork market will feel additional downward pressure in prices as Smithfield seeks to supply the Chinese market with cheap pork. According to Johnson - consolidation in agricultural markets makes it easier for interests in other countries to control large portions of our food supply. He says further study and understanding of concentration of markets is needed - along with enhanced enforcement of anti-trust laws. Johnson says independent family farmers and ranchers can't succeed in the absence of protection from unfair, anti-competitive business practices by those who control the marketplace.

The ACCT Life Saving Department enlists a network of over 200 local, regional and national Rescue Partners to transfer animals from the ACCT facility to rescue organizations for treatment, training and adoption. ACCT's Rescue Partners range from breed-specific rescue organizations, to wildlife rehabilitation facilities, from small animal sanctuaries, to large no-kill shelters. Hundreds of animals are transferred each month (more than 12,000 yearly!) from ACCT to Rescue Partners. In addition to a robust transfer program, ACCT provides support and capacity building programs for Rescue Partners to help expand and improve animal rescue efforts. For example, transport assistance, pet food and treats, and free or discounted vet services are provided to Rescue Partners.
Because ACCT Philly will be a new organization, separate from the PSPCA, beginning April 1st, 2012, ALL past, current and new rescue organizations MUST re-apply in order to be approved to rescue animals from the ACCT Philly facility. Whether you've already recently applied as a rescue partner with ACCT, or you've been rescuing animals from ACCT since the beginning, ALL partners need to register a primary contact person and apply as a rescue partner with the new ACCT organization.

Kenny Bigelow: A Name To Remember for 2013
Photo Courtesy of Facebook.com
Penn State may have yet to complete their 2012 defensive line class, but they are very aware of a few DLs for next year's as well. One such prospect is Bear (DE) Red Lion Christian Academy Kenny Bigelow.
"The off-season has been great. I accomplished a lot more than I thought I would," Bigelow recently told NittanyLionsDen.com. "I racked up a couple offers and a lot of press. I feel as though my true showing was at the Badgersport Big Man Challenge," he said, adding that he also attended a camp and unofficial at Rutgers, and took an unofficial to Auburn.
Where are his offers coming from? "I have offers from UConn, Rutgers, Auburn, Temple, Illinois, Maryland, Penn State, Virginia and Clemson," he said, adding that he's not quite sure where the most interest has been coming from.
With so many offers, it might be hard to make a decision for Bigelow, but he's taking it one day at a time. "I'm interested in whoever is interested in me. I have no favorites. If I had to pick right now it would be Auburn, the national championship is big to me."
So where does Penn State stand with the talented defensive end? "I have never been there, but I do know very much [about] them. I saw a couple games on TV, like when they played Bama. They looked good and I think they will strive and do well in the Big Ten."
With nine offers already, it's obvious that Bigelow is doing something right. We asked him what he thought coaches liked most about his game. "My size and explosion; my agression and intensity. I do whatever it takes to get to the quarterback, [and I] play as hard as I can, whistle to whistle. My passion to win is unmatched."
He added that he would like to "give all the honor and glory to God," as well as his team and strength training "for pushing me to be the best."
Kenny self reports himself at 6'3″ and 280 lbs, with a bench press of 380. He is also the team-mate of Khaliel Rodgers.

There is no doubt that the work Alex Anthopoulos and his group of front office gurus have done this winter have created a massive amount of buzz for the Toronto Blue Jays. You don't add names like Jose Reyes, Josh Johnson, Mark Buehrle, R.A. Dickey, and Melky Cabrera without getting the expectation meters rising.
The fan base is running rampant and major publications are releasing their baseball previews with the expectation that the Blue Jays will be playing for their first World Series title since 1993. Blue Jays hats and gear are popping up in all corners of both Canada and the United States as old fans prepare and new fans get ready to jump on the bandwagon.
With single-game tickets going on sale on February 15th at 10:00am, there will be a high demand to see this year's edition of Toronto baseball. With that in mind, we thought we'd find out where you, our loyal readers, stood in terms of the number of games you are going to attend.

In the past seven years, the Innocence Lost Initiative has been responsible for the rescue of over 1,200 children and the prosecution of over 600 pimps and associates.
The recent Operation Cross Country V, a three-day national enforcement action, netted the rescue of 69 juveniles and the arrest of 99 pimps across the United States.
San Diego's involvement in the Innocence Lost National Initiative officially began in November 2009 and funding from the FBI provides overtime and equipment for this important effort. Within the San Diego Police Department, participation on the task force is collateral duty for two Vice detectives, Chappie Hunter and Marc Jose, and a Vice sergeant, Bill Woods. In addition to their work on regular Vice responsibilities concerning strip clubs, gambling, alcohol licenses and the like, they spend about three-quarters of their time on sex trafficking cases involving children. They could easily be spending more time on the heavy caseload.
Detectives Hunter and Jose and Sergeant Woods are cross-sworn as Deputy US Marshals and are joined by other area law enforcement agents on the San Diego Innocence Lost Task Force. Currently, the task force is led by FBI Supervising Agent in Charge Alex Horan and also staffed by FBI Agents Carla Croft and Kris Robinson, Escondido Detective Ross Umstot and Oceanside Detective Jack Reed.
The Innocence Lost Task Force fields an average of two to three new cases each week - a sharp increase over the past few years.
Most of the pimps in these cases are street gang members who have found pimping to be easier and more profitable than drug dealing. They recruit their victims, usually girls and as young as 12 years old, through the internet, shopping malls and schools, often approaching victims as if they would like to date them and then forcing them into prostitution through manipulation and coercion.
According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, a history of emotional, sexual or other physical abuse is a major vulnerability for victims, as children with such a background can and do fall prey to this form of victimization again. Additionally, children with a history of running away or current status as a runaway makes them vulnerable to traffickers who can take advantage of their situation.
In the past year, SDPD task force members have accounted for 18 cases forwarded for prosecution to the District Attorney's Office & U.S. Attorney offices with a 99 percent success rate. There are several other cases being investigated during that same time.
Some of the notable cases recently closed include sentencing of Quincy McShan, a parolee, to 23 years in prison for pimping two girls under the age of 15. Charles Hamilton will be sentenced soon and is looking at a 30-year sentence for pimping and abusing a 16 year old girl.
The prosecution of the pimp is only half the battle for the Innocence Lost Task Force - they are also involved in the rescue and recovery of victims.
Tips for new cases come in from a variety of sources - from officers, schools, nongovernmental organizations - so training others to be the eyes and ears on the lookout for potential victims has become an important part of the Innocence Lost Task Force.
Detectives on the task force spend a significant amount of time conducting training sessions to educate fellow officers, probation and parole agents, Child Welfare Services representatives and school representatives on the warnings signs for victims of child trafficking. They conduct two pimping menu classes for the San Diego Police Department and have provided training throughout Southern California as far as San Bernardino County.
If a student has two cell phones, they may have a personal phone and a pimp phone - particularly if they are highly secretive about one.
A much older boyfriend, being picked up in high profile vehicle and secluding themselves from former friends are other warning signs. Raising awareness for potential victims of child trafficking is an effective tool for preventing their entrance into prostitution, and being trained on how to make the right call helps those victims who have already been roped into it.
Emily Cox is the editor of The Informant, the official publication of the San Diego Police Officers Association. She offers a special thanks to Sergeant Woods, Detective Hunter and Detective Jose for the task force overview.

By ERIK SCHELZIGAssociated Press
NASHVILLE (AP) - Volkswagen managers confirm in a letter to employees that the automaker is in talks with the United Auto Workers about establishing a German-style "works council" at its Tennessee assembly plant.
The letter is signed by the plant's chairman and CEO, Frank Fischer, and by Sebastian Patta, the facility's vice president for human resources. It was obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.
The managers acknowledge in the letter that questions about labor representation at the plant are a matter of "lively discussion."
The company states in the letter that it's engaged in talks with the UAW because in the United States a works council can only be established through an established trade union. Some experts and Republican elected officials, such as Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker, have disputed whether that's a requirement.

As an extension, remove an organism from each group's ecosystem and have them predict what changes they would expect to see.
Map the classroom with your kids to help them understand how maps work and how to read them. The lesson starts off with a story about animals living and moving around the globe, and then kids create maps of their classroom to show how they come and go, just like the animals.

Three Ways Teens Can Make a Good First Impression
In my travels I often hear how poorly today's students present themselves at school or at work. Complaints range from being late, to not doing their "homework," to dressing inappropriately. I mostly hear about inappropriate attire. No one is quite sure who is responsible for the general demise. Either way, here are some tips on how students can make a good first impression at school, work, or social event the minute they walk in the door.
1. Find out if there is a dress code.
Most schools, workplaces, and events have a "dress code" – find out what it is and follow it. If in doubt, opt for being overdressed rather than being underdressed. I heard of one high school student who followed his mother's advice to wear a tie when going to a job interview at Starbucks and instantly got the job. There are several books and websites that can show you what to wear. A personal favorite is The Style Checklist: The Ultimate Wardrobe Essentials for You, by Lloyd Boston.
2. Dress for school the same way you would dress for work.
If you show up to class in something you would wear to bed, teachers will instantly have a different impression about you than other students. A high school in Vermont recently revised its dress code to prohibit pajamas and slippers. Dressing appropriately is a statement that "kids respect each other, themselves, and the school." This also applies to clothes that are too revealing.
3. Cover tattoos and remove piercings that could be distracting in a particular environment.
This may be the most unfair but it can make a difference about whether or not you are hired. Some employers are just more conservative than others. If you are not sure, go "mystery shopping" before your interview. Creative industries are generally more tolerant than service businesses, such as banks or hotels.
What other tips or stories do you have about what worked/didn't work for a student?
