(l-r) Barbara Thomas, Rosemary Harris,
Jennifer Dayton, and Erica Bess
A few of us from Darien Library recently gathered with others from other area libraries and attended a Programming
Roundtable discussion at Fairfield Library. We love the comfortable back-and-forth of the Roundtable and the sharing of ideas; it's such a valuable experience. One of the panelists, coincidentally, was Rosemary Harris, who will be one of the speakers here on July 9th at 7 p.m. It'll be the first of our "Meet the Author" special events -- part of our Adult Summer Reading Program.
Rosemary talked about her personal efforts in promoting her well-received book, Pushing Up Daisies (now in its second printing(!)), her advertising background, and her foray into writing. So, since we were already excited about the upcoming program, now after meeting Rosemary and hearing her speak, we really can't wait! (Remember...it's Wednesday, July 9th at 7 p.m.)
The "Meet the Author" event will also feature fellow mystery writer Jane Cleland. This is going to be such fun! It's on my calendar -- you'll want to put it on yours.

In addition to the varsity sports teams that Columbia University has to offer, the Athletic Department can now boast of providing the community with a victorious men's club lacrosse team. The team has been playing extremely well this season, defeating both the College of New Jersey and perennial lacrosse favorite Rutgers last week.
The Rutgers game was a particularly tight squeeze for the Lions, with victory uncertain until the final whistle. Columbia came from behind to win 10-9.
"Rutgers was the one team that was undefeated in our league," junior co-captain Kirk Hourdajian said. "[Senior] co-captain Alok Verma, [graduate student] Greg McCulloch, [graduate student] Tav Cheatham, first-year Chris Parker, and myself all scored goals. Chris is our freshman stud, and he had four scores against Rutgers. The game went down into the last minute or so. It was so tight."
"Everybody else [we've played so far] wasn't as organized. They seemed like a 'club' sport, as opposed to Rutgers, which seemed almost varsity level," said first-year goalie Carlos Bermudez.
Rutgers jumped out to an early lead in the game, but the Lions regrouped and battled back, according to Hourdajian.
"Rutgers was ahead for a while, but then we [said to ourselves], 'why is this game even close?' And then we just came back."
Hourdajian underscored the inspired play that has elevated the Columbia lacrosse squad to 17th in the region. The team is 6-1, having lost only to a strong SUNY Binghamton team that took advantage of Columbia's inability to properly prepare for its match.
"Binghamton was good, but we had to start playing right after we got off of the bus without any warm-up time," Hourdajian said. "It was a freezing day."
With the season drawing to a close, the team is preparing for matches with Hofstra and New Jersey Institute of Technology. The Hofstra match is tentatively scheduled for next week, while NJIT will travel to Baker tonight.
The team is preparing for playoffs taking place during the next two weeks. The playoff format is single-elimination, and because of the nature of the seeding, the Lions will likely have to travel to play a high-caliber first round opponent like Navy, the team they faced in last year's first-round playoff match.
"Hopefully we'll be playing better teams in the playoffs, because we have a better squad, and good bunch of players, and just an all-around great team," Bermudez said.
The team is gearing up for this year's playoffs, but regardless of the outcome, this year's success combined with a very young roster suggests that the team will be competitive for the next several years.
"We have three seniors on our team, and only a couple of juniors," Hourdijian said. "The rest of the team consists of freshmen, and they are a talented class, with [offensive] star Chris Parker and Bermudez leading the way."
Bermudez has been Columbia's anchor in the net, stopping nearly every shot on goal that finds its way through the stingy Light Blue defense. The offense, though, has been the highlight of this squad's season, with impressive victories against Western Connecticut, 19-1 and NYU, 14-6.
During the course of a season, the lacrosse club plays traditional Columbia foes, including Princeton, Yale, Cornell, NJIT, Rutgers, Fordham, and Binghamton. All of the 25 players are friends, and like with any good team, chemistry plays an important role in Columbia's success. Away from the field, the team makes time for activities designed to foster unity on the squad.
"Our coaches, Mike Barth and Andy Allapeur, are real chill," Hourdijian said. "They make us run drills at practice, and we practice hard. In the fall, we have another mini-season, but the coaches let us captains take the reins of the team most of the time--except game days. We promote team activities, and, for the most part, the coaches have been really supportive."
Lacrosse club members pay $200 per year to cover dues, travel expenses, and referees, while most of the players bring their own equipment. As a club sport, the team has to deal with lack of resources at times. Examples include having the lights turn off in the middle of games and pre-scheduled buses not arriving on time. Against Princeton this year, the lights at Baker Field shut off, causing an early end to the contest.
Another complication that the team faces is finding the funding necessary for long-distance travel.
"We were invited to a prestigious tournament in North Carolina, but we did not have the funds to go, which sucked," Hourdijian said. "People have been seeing that our team is improving and doing well, and so we were included in the list of invitees, but we had to cancel because we didn't have enough funds."

MENOMONIE (WQOW) - A teenager accused of disrupting a local high school graduation ceremony now faces criminal charges.
Henry Erdahl is accused of 'streaking' the Menomonie High School graduation ceremony earlier this month. Erdahl, from Menomonie, is 17. Police say he was wearing only a black mask and shoes when he ran in front of the ceremony. They say he exposed himself to a majority of the estimated 1,000 adults and children in the crowd.
An officer chased Erdahl for several blocks. Police say he told them he did not have a reason for what he did, but said he thought of the idea the previous day. He's now charged with lewd behavior, disorderly conduct, and obstructing an officer.

Looking to add to your holiday wish list? Looking for a fashion gift for a short woman? Here are fashion and accessory items that I've chosen especially because they're flattering for short women, featuring lace lovelies, pearl jewelry, knee-high boots, pointed-toe flats, holiday special occasion clothing, and glitzy accessories.
1. Holiday Gift Guide for Petites
Here's a list of flattering styles for petites that includes a shimmering sequin cami, leather gloves, a snuggly robe, an animal-print scarf, red enamel drop earrings, a black "crusher" hat, a crystal minaudiere, a petite V-neck sweater, a glitz watch, a quartz necklace, and a petite vest. Pictured: Quartz necklace
2. Holiday Fashion for Petites
Is a holiday party on your agenda this season? Here are several party-perfect choices for petites--cocktail dress with illusion bodice, sequin wrap dress, metallic jacket and matching shell, evening pants, animal-print faux fur jacket, drop earrings, sparkly rhinestone bracelet, black beaded clutch, gold python-print clutch, evening stiletto shoes. Pictured: Sequin wrap dress
3. Pearl Jewelry
Pearl jewelry remains a fashion classic, but beyond classic, there are plenty of new, trendy styles of pearl jewelry, so there's something for every woman when it comes to pearls. My picks for this season's pearl jewelry are a champagne pearl bracelet, a faux pearl and chain necklace, a mabe pearl and filigree ring, an adjustable pearl statement ring, a bold white pearl fashion ring, faux pearl flower earrings, ivory pearl drop earrings, cultured freshwater pearl flower ring, whimsical pearl and crystal bracelet, and classic pearl earrings set in 14k gold. Pictured: Cultured freshwater pearl flower ring
4. Lace Fashion
Lovely in Lace, the Fashion Trend of the Month for November 2011, is equally trendy for any special occasion. Lace isn't just reserved for weddings; a touch of lace can add fashion interest anytime. Petite actress Sarah Jessica Parker served as inspiration in a one-shoulder, white lace mini-dress. Here are some lace fashion items that would flatter petites: petite lace special occasion dress in champagne or mocha colors, ruffle lace scarf, lace clutch, petite lace top, black lace stiletto platforms. Pictured: Petite lace special occasion dress available in champagne or mocha colors
5. Knee-High Boots
Knee-high boots are a good fashion footwear choice for petites. Here are several styles--black knee-high boot with stacked heel and decorative buckle and strap detail, slouchy suede knee-high boot, sheepskin knee-high boot, sporty black knee-high boot for casual wear, leopard-print and black knee-high boot, fringed suede knee-high boot, brown knee-high riding boot, and burnt red leather knee-high boot. Pictured: Burnt red leather knee-high boot
6. Pointed-Toe Flats
If you're tired of wearing high heels and want to give your feet a little break, pointed-toe flats can be a good alternative to wear to a casual holiday event or a family gift exchange. The pointed toe is good for short women because it visually extends the leg line. Here are several pointed-toe flat shoes that could work for petite women--jaguar print pointed-toe flat, red pointed-toe flat with knotted bow decoration, taupe pointed-toe flat with buckle decoration, sleek basic black pointed-toe flat, Jimmy Choo pointed-toe animal print flat, shiny pointed-toe flat, spectator pointed toe flat in camel and black, caramel colored pointed-toe flat with zig-zag side strap decoration, cobalt blue pointed-toe flat, and black and white print pointed-toe flat.

Mike Bishop, 46, Mike Evangelista, 42, and Vernon Renville, 51, face charges ranging from shooting more ducks than legally allowed to guiding unlicensed hunters. U.S. Attorney Brendan Johnson says the violations are alleged to have happened in the fall of 2008 and 2009.
Each of the men faces up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted. They also could be ordered to pay restitution.

Chris Hemsworth of "Thor" has another reason to celebrate this weekend other than "The Avengers" continued box office success. The actor and his wife, Elsa Pataky, welcomed their first child on May 11.
Hemsworth confirmed the news of the baby girl's arrival to USA Today. The couple named the girl India.
"We love the country and love the name," 28-year-old Hemsworth told the newspaper. It is the first child for the couple.
Hemsworth married Pataky, a 35-year-old actress, in December 2010. Pataky's pregnancy was first announced in January.
Beyond "The Avengers," which will likely land at the top of the box office for the second weekend in a row, Hemsworth will also star in the upcoming film "Snow White and the Huntsman" opposite Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron. That film hits theaters on June 1.
In "Snow White and the Huntsman," Stewart plays the heroine, while Theron portrays the Evil Queen. Snow White aims to defeat her and enlists the help of the Huntsman, played by Hemsworth.
The Australian-born actor is also the older brother of "Hunger Games" actor Liam Hemsworth.
Pataky recently appeared in the 2011 hit "Fast Five" alongside Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, and also appeared in films such "Snakes on a Plane" and "Beyond Re-Animator."
Check out a trailer for "Snow White and the Huntsman" below.

By Jim Park
There's no mystery to why wheels come off trucks. The National Transportation Safety Board in 1992, and Ontario's Ministry of Transportation in the late 1990s, both concluded after exhaustive studies that inadequate maintenance was the root cause of a series of fatal wheel separation incidents.

This video speaks to the team that originally won me as a fan, the great 1986 team. And more specifically, the player that inspired half of my Big Blue view handle, the inimitable Phil McConkey.
I bring this up (and try to use as many extra words as possibel in order to make this a viable fan post) in response to a comment in the
idiot Peter King story about all-90s no Strahan. Someone made the comment that Phil McConkey was another nameless, less-than-noteworthy bum among the crowd Phil Simms threw to.
I say nay nay.
Please enlighten yourselves, especially Giants fans who really started up in time for the 1990 team, by watching this video:
It includes commentary by Bill Parcells and Phil Simms, some great footage, and McConkey's heroic play in Superbowl ... oh, shoot... XX?

The players' trade association sent out a memo to its constituents on Wednesday, detailing what it believes to be the NFL's plans for a lockout over the past four years.
Pro Football Weekly secured a copy of the document, titled "CBA Chronology 2007 — March 2011: NFL's Path to a Lockout," which outlines the steps the NFL and union have made up until the point in which the owners locked the players out.
The document begins in 2007, when the NFL hired attorney Bob Batterman, who worked for the NHL during that sport's 2004-05 lockout, and runs through the final item, the March 1, 2011 entry in which Judge David Doty ruled in favor of the players' arguments that the league set aside a $4 million "war chest" in future TV revenue.
In between are 52 other chronological items — many of them statements from NFL officials, NFL-NFLPA bargaining sessions, court rulings and positional letters from each side.
Among the more interesting items:
The two sides have disagreed about most of the core issues, at least how they are characterized. But according to this document — even though the players have vehemently argued against an 18-game regular season publicly — the two sides have talked about such a format for nearly four years, dating back to March 2009.
Another interesting facet is that of a "pegged salary cap," which according to this document first was discussed back on June 2, 2010. The pegged cap would be a fixed-rate spending limit in which owners would benefit from rising league revenue intake. The pegged cap concept was discussed several times since then, mentioned nine times in the NFLPA document, through its final mention on Feb. 5 of this year. On that date, one day before this year's Super Bowl, the owners discussed the cap concept but said they wanted to examine it in more detail before promising to respond to the union's proposal on the matter.

Brendan Shanahan isn't interested in statistics anymore, not even the ones that appear to work in his favor, such as those that show the number of suspensions, fines and warnings he has handed out this season being down considerably from last season.
Shanahan, the NHL's senior vice president of safety and hockey operations, has handed out 15 suspensions totaling 34 games, eight fines and 15 warnings through 631 games (totals through Monday) this season, according to numbers provided by the Department of Player Safety. He handed out 22 suspensions totaling 73 games, 17 fines and 49 warnings in the same amount of games last season. There were another 29 regular-season games missed because of eight suspensions handed down during the preseason.
"I'm glad [the numbers are down], but in my mind teams are getting ready for the [Stanley Cup] Playoffs and my team [at the Department of Player Safety] is getting ready for the playoffs," Shanahan told NHL.com.
Shanahan admits he is leery about what awaits because of what happened in the first round last season.
After handing out two suspensions and two fines in the final two weeks of the 2011-12 regular season, Shanahan suspended nine players for a total of 41 games and issued one fine for $2,500 in the first round. Raffi Torres of the Phoenix Coyotes earned the majority of those games when he was suspended 25 games for a hit on Marian Hossa of the Chicago Blackhawks. Torres' suspension later was reduced to 21 games.
"This is not a time for us to be patting ourselves on the back," Shanahan said. "I experienced last year what I always knew as a player, that when the puck drops for the playoffs everything changes. So for me now, I'm happy the numbers are down, but we're preparing to be playoff ready when the puck drops and to be as vigilant as ever."
Shanahan said he understands there are those who say he hasn't been vigilant enough this season and that could be why suspensions, fines and warnings are down.
"There are people that might think we are too lenient," he said. "But I would suggest the people we have suspended think we're too harsh."
He went on to say he realizes the decisions he makes evoke passion, good and bad, but part of his job is to tune out the noise and focus on the task at hand.
"I understand that whatever decision you make is probably going to be too much or too few in someone else's opinion, but this is our department that we've been asked to run and we make our decisions based upon the standards that we've set throughout the year," Shanahan said.
"I focus on our job. I focus on player safety. I focus on recognizing hockey still is a physical game and that physical players have the right to be physical. This position will always carry with it skepticism and criticism, and all you can really do is carry out your duties with honesty and as effectively as you can."
That will remain Shanahan's goal until the Stanley Cup is awarded.
What type of player is Bruins' Soderberg?
Boston Bruins forward Carl Soderberg is due in Boston on Wednesday after deciding last week to leave Sweden to sign a contract with the Bruins. NHL.com spoke to two sources in Sweden about what type of player the Bruins are getting, and they had vastly different opinions.
According to an NHL scout who lives in Stockholm and covers the Swedish Elite League, Soderberg gained a reputation as a power forward who struggled to leave his hometown of Malmo and never played as physical as he should have against other physical players.
"He has looked almost scared in the past when playing against physical opponents, mostly North American players," the scout said.
Niklas Wikegard, a former player and coach in the SEL who serves as a television analyst for the league, said Soderberg was slowed a few years ago by a serious eye injury that nearly ended his career. Wikegard added that Soderberg proved this season in Linkoping he can fulfill his potential as a high-scoring, physical, two-way center.
He was second in the SEL with 60 points in 54 games.
"Don't get me wrong here, he's not at Joe Thornton's level of play, but he's a Joe Thornton-type player," Wikegard said. "He's a hard-working, two-way forward. He's strong on the puck, strong on the boards, wins most of the battles, plays physically. I'm talking in the Swedish League now, not the NHL. The people that play over here have a lot of respect for him."
Wikegard warned that Soderberg lost some vision in his left eye when he suffered his injury in 2007 and as a result tends to look to his right to pass the puck off the rush.
The Swedish NHL scout said he thinks Soderberg can produce for the Bruins if he lines up with other skilled players, but he may be struggle in a physical game, especially in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
"I think he's a player that you can intimidate," the scout said.
Wikegard said he believes Soderberg's age (27) and experience will help him make an immediate impact.
"He never played there [in the NHL] and the tempo is much higher, but he's not a junior coming in," Wikegard said. "He's a senior personality. He's smart. He's strong, big and he knows what he can do. With respect to the best league in the world, I would absolutely say he can come in and be a good player."
Dupuis doesn't need Crosby to score
Pascal Dupuis' scoring could have been considered a byproduct of playing with Sidney Crosby, but Dupuis has nine points (four goals) since the Pittsburgh Penguins captain was forced out of the lineup with a broken jaw.
"My abilities are the same," Dupuis told NHL.com. "I'm not going to change the way I play at 34 years old. But confidence-wise, I think it's at the highest point it's been at any point in my career."
Dupuis credits Crosby for helping him build that confidence throughout this season, but he worried it would take a hit after the Penguins acquired Jarome Iginla because he wondered if Iginla was brought in to take his role as the right wing on Crosby's line.
Penguins coach Dan Bylsma quickly eliminated that concern.
"The same day we acquired Jarome, I got pulled aside and he said, 'I know you saw who we acquired and it is nothing against you and it's not going to work against you. You're still Sid's linemate,'" Dupuis said. "He mentioned it to the media right away too. That was really big, knowing that an all-star player and a known goal-scorer like Iggy was coming on our team and they were still going to leave me there."
Dupuis said he expects to be Crosby's linemate whenever the Penguins captain returns.
Dekeyser making speedy transition
Detroit Red Wings defenseman Danny Dekeyser said nothing about his first five NHL games has been overwhelming, not even the speed, which has been known to throw off many players coming directly from college.
"I would say overall the game isn't a whole lot quicker [than the college game]," Dekeyser, who was playing for Western Michigan University last month, told NHL.com. "There are times when guys are coming down the wing and they're flying, so that would be the one thing I have noticed about the speed. But it's more individual plays and not an overall game speed."
Maybe Dekeyser feels that way because he has adapted well to the speed, or at least had a good idea of what to expect because his coach in college was Andy Murray, the former coach of the Los Angeles Kings and St. Louis Blues.
"He's a 10-year NHL coach, and since he's been there [at Western Michigan] it's run more like a pro-style program," Dekeyser said. "I've noticed that since I left there and came here there's not a whole lot that's different. Obviously there are different players and more skill, but everything he does there with video and with practice planning and the meetings and when we're on the road, he just treats us like professionals. It's been really a smooth transition for me because of what he does there."
Weekes: Reimer proving adversity won't stop him
James Reimer is 4-1-1 with a .942 save percentage and 1.80 goals-against average since Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Dave Nonis talked trade with the Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks until the deadline April 3.
Reimer has improved his record this season to 17-5-5, dropped his GAA from 2.52 to 2.36, and raised his save percentage from .920 to .925. The Maple Leafs also hadn't allowed a power-play goal in eight straight games (28-for-28) heading into their game Tuesday at the Washington Capitals.
"You can sink or swim and he chose to swim, so good on him," NHL Network analyst and former goalie Kevin Weekes told NHL.com. "You need mental toughness to play and stay in 'The Show.' Very few guys have rose petals thrown at their feet, so you have to be able to deal with adversity."
Weekes outlined a few of the reasons he thinks Reimer has been able to persevere through the adversity to be a true No. 1 goalie.
"His glove hand is improving; it was sub-NHL level last year," he said. "He's more athletic in the net and can respond to lateral plays, broken plays, deflections, and he's a better second-shot goalie this year. That has to do with being in better shape. He lost 20 pounds."

The problem is they forgot that once you take that step into collective bargaining, you have to bargain for everything all the time. Non-union towns had to keep up with the market.

(not that slavery has totally ended as of this day -- there is a lot of slavery yet in this world.)

re: "...but a general making a phone call or email or whatever is not a law."
Let's try this little exercise. If a uniformed policeman told you you could not put a sign in your front yard advocating, say, to legalize marijuana (a worthy cause, IMO) -- is he impacting your free speech as an agent of the government? How about if he was *not* in uniform, and *clearly* not connected with the government -- just doing that as another citizen? In the first, this is restricting your free speech. No law needed. The potential threat of enforcement is all you need. In the second, it is two citizens both exercising their right.
Now, assume a General in the Army calls you personally, *as has happened*, to tell you not to say/do something. Legal authority or no, I'm telling you that as a representative of the government, he needs to have his tit put in the wringer. It is an ugly precedent. What's the next acceptable rank to tell you what to do or what not to do? Colonel? Major? Captain? Lieutenant? Where does it stop, when it never should have started in the first place? As a general, he should know the legality and ethics of this, but then, if he was so smart, he'd have kept his fly buttoned and saved us all a lot of trouble.

Men's hoops knocks off Lipscomb to get No. 3 seed
Feb. 24, 2007
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jacksonville men's basketball team closed the regular season out in style, using a hot shooting first half and a strong rebounding effort in the second half to lead the Dolphins to a 74-67 win over Lipscomb in Atlantic Sun Conference play on Saturday night.
The win gives the Dolphins (15-13, 11-7 A-Sun) the No. 3 seed in next week's A-Sun Tournament, hosted by ETSU. Jacksonville also clinched its second winning season in the last three and just the third in the last 10.
Jesse Kimbrough finished off the final home game of the career with 17 points and four assists, tying his career-high with three 3-pointers. He was one of four Dolphins to score in double figures, with Lehmon Colbert joining him for the team lead with his second double-double of the season - racking up 17 points and a career-high 11 rebounds.
JU will face No. 6 seed Campbell in the first round of the A-Sun Tournament at 3:15 p.m.
"This was a good win to finish off the regular season," said JU head coach Cliff Warren. "Our focus is getting ready for next week and our first opponent Campbell. We can't look ahead or relish what we've accomplished - we still have a lot of work to do."
Joining Kimbrough and Colbert in double figures was Corey Claitt and Ben Smith. Claitt had 16 points, with 11 coming in the first half. Smith had 11 points and six assists for his fifth double figure scoring performance in the last six games.
Another big time performance came from Marcus Allen. The sophomore was held to just five points, but pulled down 11 rebounds - including eight on the defensive glass.
Lipscomb (18-11, 11-7 A-Sun) got a game-high 18 points from Eddie Ard and 12 points from Brian Fisk.
With JU leading by 16 just three minutes into the second half, Lipscomb got back into the game with a scoring rush. The Bisons scored 18 unanswered points to turn a 49-33 deficit into a 51-49 lead with just 10 minutes left in the game.
The Dolphins countered with a run of their won, scoring the next eight points - six of those coming on back-to-back 3-pointers by Colbert to take a 57-51 lead with just over seven minutes left in regulation.
Lipscomb cut the margin to three on a 3-pointer by Michael Teller, but the Dolphins came right back with the knockout punch. JU went on a 8-1 run, capped by a pair of Ben Smith free throws to take a 67-57 lead with 2:05 remaining.
The Bisons didn't give up and cut the lead to five with 14 seconds left, but Kimbrough sealed the win with a pair of free throws with six seconds left to ice the win.
Jacksonville was 18-of-23 at the free throw line, with Smith leading the way by going of 7-of-8.
JU used 12-1 run late in the first half to blow a close game open in the first half en route to a 43-29 lead at the half.
The Dolphins head into the A-Sun Tournament sporting an 11-5 record since the Christmas break.

The expedition is made via a route which is a combination between the Polish Route, the Ameghino Traverse, Upper Guanaco and the Normal Route.
It all begins with a two day trekking through Valle de Vacas up to Plaza Argentina Base Camp. After preparing everything we will start the ascent trough the first part of the Polish Route up to Camp 1. Then we will make the traverse of Cerro Ameghino up to Camp 2. From there we will go to Camp 3 via the upper part of the Valle de Guanacos Route, and finally we get the summit by the last part of Normal Route. The descent is made via the Normal Route.
This route will allow you to see a unique landscape: the magnificence of the Polish Glacier and the greatness of the Andes; and most importantly, it will allow you to have a better acclimatization and thus more chances to reach the summit.
The descent by the Normal Route will take us to Plaza de Mulas, Aconcagua´s biggest Base camp. Then we will go on a trek towards Laguna de los Horcones from where you can see the different faces of Aconcagua.

text: If you looked at Sark's twitter from yesterday, you would have seen the message about the upcoming coaches clinic. Has anyone looked at the guest high school coaches? Match the coaching name list with the 2010 recruits school name. Do you see any trends????????? Its just my hunch, but isn't it nice and convienent to invite the coaches to work with you that have the recruits on their team that you are after.

Training a Cat, Why do it?
So you are interested in training a cat? Is your cat a problem? Does its kneading become a painful event, does it mess in all the wrong places, does it climb on counters and spread germs, do you have a new kitten or are expecting one soon? We will add to the resources here and point you towards some of our favorite sites (Click here for one example) to help you overcome these problems.
Training a cat is not the same as training a dog because their instincts and behavior patterns are different. it is important to understand these differences if you are to succeed in training your cat.
Dogs are essentially pack animals and look to the "top dog" for guidance. Training them is very much a matter of being that "top dog" to them. The carrot and stick will work very well but personally I prefer just the carrot. There is no place for sticks in my philosophy. Repetition and reward is the best way. A dog is far more interactive than a cat however and looks on training as a real stimulus and a pleasure.
Cats however are loners by nature in much of their behavior (there are exceptions in the big cat world such as lions) but I always get the impression that in many households multiple cats tolerate each other to a large extent and that tolerance may very well apply to we humans. Treat a cat the wrong way and it may very well pack its bags and go! Click HERE for some great tips.
Training a Cat. Where to Start
Cats can be easily conditioned however. once again repetition and reward seem to be best. Forget the interactive bit though most of the time. If you already have a cat then you will know a bit of what I mean. Cat comes crying, you feed it. Cat associates actions and will learn that crying results in food. Simple, one well trained human.
So how do we turn this to our advantage? It is important from the start to establish a pattern ie. you do things, such as feeding, when you want, not when you are summoned. Punishment is not how to discipline a cat. Like I said above the cat may just get up and go. In any case in a cats brain they associate the punishment with YOU not with their own actions.
I look at different techniques with different aims such as training cats to stay off counters on the site and will be adding more as the weeks go on. Please come back regularly to find out more or click HERE for a great book on training a cat.

There are so many flowers blooming at Riverbend, what Paula calls her property, that I had to take pictures this morning and share with y'all! I will start at the front porch, with these urns of Japanese Lace Leaf Maple with hydrangeas. The ivy has gotten out of control in the pots so I braided it and made swags. I love the contrast of colors!
The snapdragons are just going wild. We did all white this year and I pinched them back heavily this fall. If you sacrifice blooms in the fall you will be rewarded in the spring!
My favorite flower is the anemone. We planted several colors in the raised cutting bed. While I love this flower I have discovered that Paula doesn't. I may still have to plant a few next fall! Shh!! Don't let her know!
Last year we planted several lily bulbs and they came right back up this spring. Nothing smells as good as a lily bloom. I love this color lily cut inside Paula's home.
We also have several clusters of Foxgloves on the property. These in the cutting garden are finally sending up their blooms. This is a favorite of Paula's and mine. They don't last long with our heat but they are so worth planting.
We have a very wet area on the property where we planted purple iris. Growing up in Louisiana and Mississippi, it brings me right back home!
No garden is complete without a pair of ducks. Well maybe that's not true. My feathered friends have followed me all over the gardens this morning. Right by my side at all times. Paula and her grandkids just love the ducks. I have a love/hate relationship with them! They are the first to eat my water lilies, and snack on delicate blooms in the garden. Bread has become my latest device in protecting my garden from these troublemakers!

After the game, Western Michigan head coach Andy Murray didn't looked pleased with his team's performance. Despite winning 5-1 over a decent Colorado College team, and thus earning a sweep in their first series in one of the toughest conferences in the NCAA, Murray saw many things for his team to work on.
"You score 5 goals, it's nice to see, but the fact that Frank (Slubowski) had to make as many saves as he made tonight is disappointing," Murray said after the game. "We're pleased with the win, but we've got a lot of room for growth. That second period, we stopped skating. We're disappointed we gave up as many chances as we did tonight."
The Broncos (3-2-1, 2-0-0), after taking a 3-0 lead, did appear to let the Tigers (1-5-0, 1-3-0) get shots on Slubowski due to sloppy play. After taking a 13-6 shot on goal advantage, Colorado College then racked up shots in bunches, eventually taking the SOG advantage and holding it most of the way. In fact, the 20 shots the Tigers got on the Broncos in that period tied the most conceded by Murray's club in any one period this season so far.
The game actually started out with a lot of back-and-forth play, mainly controlled by the Broncos. Eventually, the Broncos would get a decent look and cycled the puck to the slot where power-play point guard Dennis Brown saw a lane and threw a shot on net. After getting a deflection from a Tiger defender, the senior defenseman netted his 2nd goal of the season and just his 8th career goal.
That period, the Broncos outshot their new conference foe by a margin of 11-1. They would open the second period with more strong play, as senior captain Chase Balisy stole a puck from a Tiger defender and threw a shot on Josh Thorimbert. Similar to last night's game-ending goal, Thorimbert made the initial save, but the puck fell behind him and into the net, this time on its own.
The Broncos would strike again 3 minutes later, as Justin Kovacs, almost paying back line-mate Josh Pitt for a great assist last night, found Pitt in the left wing. Pitt would bury home a shot for his 5th career goal and the 2nd of the season (and at the time, was thought to be the 2nd of the night, later overturned).
Then the relaxed play began and the Tigers awoke.
While Colorado College would pepper Slubowski with shots, the junior net-minder would make save after save, with some huge stops. Eventually though, the Tigers found a hole, in the form of what appeared to be a trickling pass that Slubowski never saw. After finally seeing the puck, he was too far out of position, and Scott Wamsganz was credited with his first career goal.
However, Western Michigan would strike back just moments later, with Kovacs finding a hole deep in the right wing. His shot from close to the end-line found its way behind Thorimbert and into the net to extend the lead back to three goals just 21 seconds after the Tiger goal.
The Broncos would then kill a Balisy penalty to start the 3rd period, who then came out of the box to find Colton Hargrove streaking down the wing. Hargrove would bury the shot for the Broncos' 5th goal of the night and his team-leading 3rd goal of the season.
On the weekend, the Broncos failed to convert on the 5 power-play opportunities. However, they did manage to kill all 10 of the Tiger power-plays. In all, Murray seemed content with his penalty killing units.
"We're pleased with our PK unit. They got a lot more practice (on the power-play) than we did. We have to make sure we monitor our discipline. It's not just our young players that are taking some unnecessary penalties, it's some of our veterans. There's a different kind of game called in the NCHC and we have to adjust to the way the game's being called."
Next weekend, the Broncos take on former CCHA foe Northern Michigan in a rare Saturday-Sunday series. Game time is slated for 7:05 pm on Saturday and 5:05 pm Sunday. Both games are at Lawson Ice Arena in Kalamazoo, MI.

Todd La Torre's attraction to music began with his first drumset at the age of seven. His formal training with the acoustic guitar began at ten. Todd continued with both drums and electric guitar throughout highschool, where he was a member of the school band and local rock bands. He began writing music at just fourteen and continues to this day. While trained at an early age at both, he went on to specialize with drums and vocals.
Todd was raised in a primarily musical family and was exposed to all genres of music, finally favoring heavy and progressive metal. His approach to writing stems from his lifes experience, heart and soul. "I want my lyrics to make people think, even after the song is over". He believes although other instruments are tools which create mood, nothing delivers like an emotional voice. Knowing this, Todds passion for singing was assured.
Essentially unknown to the mainstream progressive metal scene, La Torre spent 24 years earning his stripes and solidifying himself as an unquestionable talent behind the drum kit of various hard rock and heavy metal projects in the Tampa Bay Florida area; however his vocal aspirations went largely unfulfilled until in 2009, when Matt LaPorte (JON OLIVA'S PAIN), who had only heard La Torre sing on a few occasions, mentioned to Jon Drenning(guitarist) of Crimson Glory that he might make a nice addition to the already stellar lineup of performers the band had accumulated for their headlining concert performance scheduled for September 13, 2009. Todd made his first public appearance with Crimson Glory at ProgPower USA X as one of seventeen guest performers (including Wade Black, vocalist on the Astronomica album and subsequent European tour, and David Van Landing, who replaced Midnight briefly for the Strange and Beautiful US tour) paying tribute to Midnight, the band's original singer. Midnight passed away late last year due to long-term health complications. After the tribute show, Drenning and La Torre remained in contact with each other, with occasional jam/songwriting sessions. It was only a short time later that La Torre found himself at the band's rehearsal studio, and the pieces began to fall into place. On April 29, 2010 the legendary progressive heavy metal pioneers Crimson Glory announced Todd La Torre as the new singer/frontman to lead them into the future.
Due to the wide skepticism of having a vocalist do justice to the Midnight era songs, Todd has recorded his vocals on the original tracks to showcase his ability to do just that. Crimson Glory has not and will not be rerecording any of the classic albums; the new vocal recordings were for promotional purposes only. The response from the Crimson Militia was nothing short of overwhelming; the fans have their band back with a vocalist who is eerily similar to Midnight, but with his own individual sound. With the lower vocal range of Peter Steele, the vibrato of Bruce Dickinson, and the gritty high ranging screams of Halford, Todd delivers more than one sound to the mic.
In May 2012 it was announced that original Queensryche members Wilton, Rockenfield and Jackson, along with Parker Lundgren and Crimson Glory frontman Todd La Torre formed a band called Rising West (named after a lyric from the Queensryche album The Warning), playing songs from the first five Queensryche albums only. The first Rising West shows took place in Seattle at the Hard Rock Café on June 8 and 9, 2012,selling out both nights.
In June 2012, Todd La Torre was officially named the new vocalist for Queensryche. Touring plans are to be announced.
On February 7, 2013 Todd officially resigned from Crimson Glory due to the bands inability to maintain writing sessions and inactive status.

You may have heard about "negative calorie foods" on TV, radio, forums or in health magazines and wondered to yourself "sure this has to be too good to be true?" Let's now have a look at the truth.
As you'll know everything you eat will have some calories in it which you need to stay energized. However if you eat more than you burn off you'll end up storing the excess calories as fat. There's nothing really complicated about that. However it's been found that certain foods take a lot of energy to chew and digest. Actually the amount of calories you spend eating these foods is more than the calories found in them.
So, technically the foods aren't negative in calories however you need all of these calories and more so in order to digest them.
Here's a simple example:
Each portion of celery has in the region of 5 calories. However chewing swallowing and then digesting the celery uses up 8 calories. This means for every portion of celery you eat, you're losing 3 calories!
It's not just celery that will have this effect. Other foods include fruit and vegetables such as cabbage, grapefruit, cucumbers and cabbages. Drinking water also uses up calories however water doesn't even contain calories to begin with.
Are negative calorie foods the answer to weight loss?
Yes and no. The problem is that your body needs calories in order to function properly. Being energetic enough to be able to walk, run and exercise is important for so many reasons. Also, your body desperately needs essential fatty acids (eg fish oils and olive oil) and if you become deficient in them you can develop health problems such as dry skin, alopecia and has been linked to MS and neuropathy.
Instead negative calorie foods should be used as part of a healthy calorie-controlled diet. So enjoy fruit and vegetables as snacks and part of your main meals along with healthy protein and fat sources such as chicken, fish and liver.
If you're the sort of person with too big an appetite and want to reduce the number of calories you eat, eating fruit and vegetables is an excellent way of filling yourself up.
What's the conclusion?
If you think that eating a diet consisting entirely of negative calorie foods then this would be a very bad idea because over the long-term you'll become deficient in many much-needed nutrients. For instance, vitamin B12 is only available in animal products such as meat, eggs and cheese, which is why vegetarians and vegans should supplement with B12 (the best form is methylcobalamin).
However if you want to include these foods in your diet along with protein and essential fatty acids then they are very healthy as they provide a wide range of nutrients that will benefit your health.
If you're still finding it difficult to lose weight then you can always consider taking a diet pill such as Meratol as it's able to help you lose weight in a variety of ways.
