Goodell: NFL needs to invest more
Goodell: NFL needs to invest more
MIAMI -- NFL commissioner Roger Goodell predicts players' salaries will still grow under a new labor agreement, even if their share of revenue is reduced as owners have proposed.
Appearing Sunday on CBS's "Face the Nation" hours before the Super Bowl, Goodell said the owners need more money to cover rising costs for international ventures and infrastructure projects such as new stadiums.
"You have to invest in these stadiums that we're in today," Goodell said. "You need to find new ways of creating revenue, whether it's international or otherwise. And that takes investment. And we need to make sure that the owners have the capital to be able to do that. And then the pie grows, and everyone benefits."
The union has said management wants players to reduce their share to 41 percent of applied revenues from about 59 percent. Goodell counters that of the $3.6 billion in incremental revenues since 2006, players received $2.6 billion.
"We want to structure something that really is going to lead us into the next decade in a way that's constructive, so the players benefit, the teams benefit, and most of all, the game," Goodell said.
The league's current labor contract expires in March 2011. NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith said Thursday the chance of a lockout next year is a "14" on a scale of 1 to 10.
"I don't agree with that," Goodell said. "The owners don't win by having a lockout. Shutting down your business is not good for anybody. And it's certainly not good for the players. It's certainly not good for the fans."
Addressing the issue of concussions has been another priority for the commissioner, and he said the league will continue to look for ways to make the game safer. He didn't rule out the idea of getting linemen out of their three-point stances to reduce the ferocity of collisions at the line of scrimmage.
"As you'll see tonight, you'll see a lot of players that never get down in a three-point stance," Goodell said. "So it's possible that would happen."
While science is still trying to determine the long-term effects of concussions, Goodell said, the league has made progress in increasing awareness about the severity of such injuries.
"For many years the culture had been quite different -- that concussions weren't serious injuries," he said. "I think we have changed that culture and made sure that people understand they are serious, and they can have serious consequences if they're not treated properly."

Kinda OT:
Re: Banning the 3 point stance to reduce the violence of collisions: Something I've always thought would help reduce this is playing every game on real grass fields. I know it goes against everything they've been doing (speeding up the game, making it more high scoring). But seriously...some of the hits guys are laying on each other out there are really scary. There was an illegal hit to the head in junior hockey a few weeks ago and it sent the player into a seizure, it's not something I want to see in HD some day on the football field. It might be worth a universal slight reduction in speed and traction...and I suppose it would be the end of domed stadiums, which are really lame.
Has there been much discussion on this? I was actually kind of hoping to find a study on the subject, but haven't had any luck.

text: Hi all, I've had several folks ask me what painted charters and insignia are needed most right now, so I thought I'd post a brief list. Charters: The ones I need most at the moment are the newer awards, particularly the Golden Bridle and the Arcus Majoris. I will have blanks for these awards at Stargate Baronial this weekend. Some of the guild heads and regional scribes have blanks as well. You can turn in painted charters to me (or Modius, who has a pretty good idea of where to find me), Star Signet (Annais), or your regional scribe. If you intend to mail scrolls to me, please contact me first for a mailing address (don't use the address in the Black Star for sending me packages - my dogs eat packages delivered to our house). Insignia: We are always in need of medallion insignia, especially in styles appropriate to later periods. We *really* need Comets right now. Cranes are also in relatively short supply. I'd also like to mention that Lady Deirdre inghean mhicFhionnain will be helping to coordinate the collection of insignia for the reign. She's a warm, friendly lady who is very easy to work with. You can direct insignia-related questions to her at sunny75771 at yahoo.com. You can turn in new insignia to Deirdre, me, or the Crown. My sincere thanks to all of you who are painting charters and creating insignia for the kingdom. Keep up the good work! Warmest regards, Sara Penrose Sable Scroll __________________________________________________ Yahoo! - We Remember 9-11: A tribute to the more than 3,000 lives lost http://dir.remember.yahoo.com/tribute

I love the American Society of Reproductive Medicine conference. I'm spending this week like a kid in a candy store– listening to great presentations and interviewing the top experts in the world to be possible guests on next year's Creating a Family show. Many presentations yesterday were great, but the information on the long term health impact of childhood abuse really caught my eye… and my heart.
Two studies presented found a link between childhood physical or sexual abuse and reproductive disorders later in life. The first study of over 70,000 women followed for 20 years found that woman who reported sexual or physical abuse in childhood had a 13% greater risk of developing endometriosis. The second study of 131 women found that women who experience sexual abuse were 50% more likely to suffer accelerated ovarian follicle loss at midlife.
The lead researcher of the endometriosis study, Dr. Stacey Missmer, Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School, said that these studies are part of the growing evidence that stress and trauma affects the hormonal and central nervous center and can result in long term chronic disease, including cardiovascular disease, fibroids, diabetes, and reproductive disorders.
When asked, researchers stressed that these studies do not mean that the majority of women with endometriosis or ovarian failure were abused or that the majority of abused children will develop reproductive disorders later in life. They do, however, provide evidence that extreme stress affects the whole body including reproductive health, and that that childhood and adolescence is a particularly vulnerable window for disease development.

Seattle Seahawks star Marshawn Lynch made an early exit at Super Bowl media day, then returned to Tuesday's session just in time to possibly avoid a hefty fine from the NFL.
The running back abruptly left the required session at the Prudential Center, walking out after 6½ minutes.
He later came back and stood on the side of the media area, doing interviews with the Armed Forces Network, Deion Sanders for the NFL Network and a Seahawks Web reporter. Lynch also talked to teammates and signed footballs and a helmet for fans in the stands.
While he did that, about five dozen media members stood in front of Lynch and shouted out questions. He ignored almost all of them as time ran out in Seattle's 45-minute availability.
One reporter asked, "Are you trying to avoid being fined by standing here?" Lynch twice nodded his head yes.
Earlier this month, Lynch was fined $50,000 for not cooperating with the Seattle media. The NFL put the fine on hold, saying it would be rescinded if his behavior improved.
"Players are required to participate and he participated. We will continue to monitor the situation," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Tuesday.
Lynch has required media sessions Wednesday and Thursday. The Seahawks play the Denver Broncos on Sunday.
At media day, Lynch was standing on the floor of the covered-over hockey rink among a cluster of about 100 reporters. There were eight podiums set up for Seattle stars and coach Pete Carroll, plus nine other separated areas separated from the throng. Lynch wasn't positioned at any of them.
Lynch answered a half-dozen questions before walking away. He spoke to someone for a moment, then left the arena. He came back a little bit later.
The Seattle and Denver players were expected to speak to media members during the 45-minute sessions that lead up to the game.
Lynch watched as the clocked counted down to zero and, when it was announced the Seattle portion was over, left for good. (Photo: Matt Slocum/Associated Press)

In the '70s and '80s, the term "scally" described someone who was resourceful beyond their means and a pioneer in fashion trends. It evolved in the '90s to describe a hooligan-type character. I could go on, but if you are that interested you can check out the "what is a scally" section on UK Scally Lads. Basically, a scally is a rough-around-the-edges bad boy.
UKScallyLads brings these dudes together for hardcore sucking and screwing. The site is well organized and easy to navigate. Just click on any thumbnail and you are taken to a page with a short streaming trailer and a write-up about the dudes and the scene. You will find 221 good-quality videos and they include files for portable devices as well as full-length Flash versions to stream.
The content is a mix of jerk-off sessions and hardcore blowjobs, rimming and anal sex. While there might be a bit of talking, the scenes I watched got right into it as soon as the camera was turned on. The guys and locations have true amateur appeal, but the camerawork and lighting make for some high-quality porn.
The boys seem to enjoy what they're doing. Even the ones who are supposedly straight take the bait willingly when a dude's love worm is dangled in front of their faces. Now, for some of you, the term lad might imply a young guy and although you will see lots of 18 to 23-year-old boys, there are also men who are closer to 30.
You can also check out 221 photo sets and download them in Zip files or view them in a hands-free slideshow. The images are a bit on the small side online, but they're crisp and well shot. Downloaded and unzipped, they're high-res.
Although you can browse the model index by a few categories, including young, straight and lads with big cocks, the navigation is rather limited. There's no search engine or a way to specifically look for the hardcore scenes among the many solo ones.
A new shoot is added once a week and the recurring monthly fee is reasonable. For those into high-quality, but not overly produced, amateur gay porn, UK Scally Lads has just that and they do it well. The site is worth a look.

Agree the idea is good and the price is fair. But I think your review over rates this site. The photos are small and discoloured - an average phone takes better pics. The videos are better than the pics, but I wouldn't call them "great quality" - just OK. Some of the guys are really not "scally" - its a matterof opinion I suppose, but a hairdresser does not become a scally just by putting a tracksuit on!

In response to comment by Mark, we do have now have a download limit per each video (to avoid potential abuse, e.g. password sharing). However, this is stated in our T&C's and Rabbits Reviews have been informed.

I'm so excited. I have been contacted by a mysterious foreign dignitary, or at least the relative of one who is going to help me make some big money without me having to lift a finger. It's also a great deal because I'll be helping some poor unfortunate soul who has had millions wrongfully denied them. Isn't the internet great? We can all help each other and get rich doing it!
What? You don't believe me? But I have this e-mail right here that proves it:
Winemaker Ben Kanobe & CO
Tel/Fax: 234 8032564512 899 4922
E-mail: [email protected]
Yarrow Alder Viogniergraphy:
I am Winemaker Ben Kanobe, a jedi-wienmaker, trained
in the Mosel. I am the personal winemaker to Mr. Gallo
Zinfandel. He was the CEO to a private firm in Nigeria until
30 years ago when he bought a famous winery in Napa,
CALIFORNIA. Here in after shall be referred to as my Lord
Wine. On the August 6, 1997, my boss, Lord Wine, died
from the dreaded phylloxera disease. Since the demise of
my guru, I personally has watched with keen interest to see
his next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come
to claim his funds deposit of US$25M, (Twenty Five Million
united states dollars) which was deposited by my late client
with Wine Bank of Napa here in Napa USA.
On this note, I decided to seek for a non-foreigner who
will stand as the Next of kin to claim this funds from
the Wine Bank of Napa where the funds was
deposited, as none of the deceased relative
has come up to claim the deceased funds.
The banking ethics here does not allow such money
to stay more than Nine years, after which the funds
will be forfeited to the US government account as
unclaimedfunds. I will not Fail to bring to your notice
thatthis business is hitch free and that you should not
entertain any fear as all modalities for fund transfer
will be finalized within ten (10) banking days
depending on how fast we can communicate. I have
all necessary legal documents that can be used to
back up any claim we may make.
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us
see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be
executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you from any breach of the law.
Please reply to my private e-mail:
Best regards,
Winemaker Ben Kanobe
Thanks Jack. That made my day.
Why do I feel like I need to take a shower? Wazoo, Baby!
U think this guy is screwtops? I mean, he doesn't even say he'll cut you in for 20% of the take, unlike his fellow countrymen regularly do. What's up with dat?
Ben Kanobe, as in Obi-Wan?
You know you've really on the map when the Nigerians start sending you these offers.
I had one a few years ago that began "Through successful skimming profits from national oil contracts while in my position as oil minister I now have $10 million that I need your help in removing from the country". Needless to say the honest skimmer is still waiting for my assistance!
I guess so ! Who knew he was in the wine business.
Put you thinking cap on and get to work. (You can follow in the footsteps of these guys: http://www.419eater.com/)

Well, you gotta give it to this guy, he knows his audience! Even managed to spell California right.
I'm getting at least three of those sorts of emails per week, all requesting extremely expensive wines to be shipped to Lagos, Nigeria. Very sketchy business, that. For fun, I actually answered one with a shipping quote of something like $7000, to which they said 'no problem'. Yeah, right.
Just as an FYI to any other retailers out there, we have also received a fair number of emails from various individuals requesting large volumes of Roederer Cristal and Dom Perignon to be shipped to U.S. addresses where these products are readily available. Yeah, okay, Cristal is not that available since the rappers started taking baths in it, but Dom P is in practically every corner liquor store.
The emails vary in terms of level of broken English, but some seem quite legit, so be careful!
My parents are Nigerian and the amount of scammers out there that keep giving nigerians a bad name is absolutely ridiculous. but anyway if your ever in Chile check out winetoursvalparaiso we put together some great wine tours around the casablanca and san antonio valleys

" Genre: Author: Ben Kane / Paperback / 672 Pages / Book is published 2009-04-16 by Preface Publishing "
* Prices may differ from that shown
Having read and enjoyed Ben Kane's novel Spartacus the Gladiator and not yet having purchased the second book Spartacus Rebellion as I am tight and waiting for the paper back edition, I was eager to see if any other of his publications matched up to the quality of Spartacus. Following a little research I found the Forgotten Legion trilogy and figured the first book of the series entitled The Forgotten Legion would be as good a place as any to start.
The Plot:-
The plot of The Forgotten Legion is centred around four main characters, Tarquinius, Brennus, Romulus, and Fabiola. The story starts setting the background of these four characters, Tarquinius the sooth-sayer or fortune reader seeking revenge after the murder of one of his closest friends by the Roman Legions, Fabiola and Romulus are twins sold as youths by their master for disobediance into a brothel and gladiator school (ludus), which is where Romulus meets Brennus the gladiator. The story really begins when by a series of chance events Romulus and Brennus end up fleeing the ludus and meeting Tarquinius shortly after signing up for the army to fight for the Roman Legions on the borders of the Roman Empire, being former slaves as gladiators where they were not permitted to join the Legions however this risk was far outweighed by the punishment that would be metered out to them should they return to the ludus.
Fabiola who was sold to a brothel catering for the high society in Rome at age 13 as her brother was being sold to the ludus is intent on revenge to her former master for the job she was sold into, and breaking up their family, but the main plot as far as Fabiola is concerned is the burning hatred and need for revenge against hers and Romulus' father who left her mother pregnant after raping her. Fabiola soon has Brutus under her spell through her work in the brothel, a rich and powerful man with high status in the Roman Empire and she will use him in whichever way she sees fit.
Overall a great storyline that flows with such ease its easy to get carried away and absorbed in the rich descriptions of the Roman Empire and the everthing that made it click from the dingy, grimy outskirts of the city, to the rich and impressive city centre with great shrines and buildings. Everthing that surrounded the Romans from fighting in gory detail, to what religion meant to them is covered here not in a way you may expect but definitely easily taken in.
My Opinion:-
I personally enjoyed every page of this book in case you hadn't already guessed and only took a little over 3 days to read the 600 pages this book contains. With blood, gore, friendship, love and religion all in just the right amount, coupled with a whole heap of historically correct details thrown in for good measure amoungst the twists and turns every page is well worth the paper it is written on. This is definitely one I would recommend picking up and having a read of, if you enjoy this one check out Ben Kanes other books they are all of a comparable great standard of writing and all as historically correct as a fictional history novel gets.
Since the release of ''Gladiator'', Roman life has been a growth industry in the entertainment world, with even ''Doctor Who'' visiting Pompeii at one point. The last time I visited Roman times in written form was when I was still doing Latin at school. Fortunately, Ben Kane's ''The Forgotten Legion'' is far more engrossing than school ever was.
In 70 B. C., the Roman Empire is spreading through Europe. In Gaul, a warrior is captured after his village is destroyed and is taken back to Rome as a gladiator. In Northern Italy, a haruspex is betrayed by a man looking for fortune and his young apprentice is forced to flee to avoid death. In Rome itself, a young slave is raped by an important politician late one night.
Fourteen years later, the Gaulish prisoner Brennus has become famed for his abilities in the arena. Tarquinius, the haruspex's apprentice is looking for revenge on the man who betrayed his mentor and also trying to avoid being killed as a deserter from the legions. The young slave is now a mother of teenage twins, Romulus and Fabiola, who are sold by a greedy master to a gladiator school and a whorehouse respectively.
The story follows these four as they seek revenge, try to improve their situation and battle just to stay alive. The political machinations of pre-Empire Rome are in evidence, although they mostly take a back seat to life in the gladiatorial arena and the legions. Most of the political intrigue involves Fabiola trying to gain information about her brother and her battle for supremacy in the whorehouse, with only brief mentions of the battle for power in the senate. This helps to keep the pace high, but also allows for a lot of switching between characters that helps keep the reader interested.
Kane is an expert at keeping the story flowing and the pace high. Given my limited knowledge of Roman life, particularly in the days when Rome was still a republic, I can't be sure how accurate the historical background is. But given the time period, the way he moves his characters around and the situations he places them in, it does feel quite natural. Scholars may point out inaccuracies and may lose some of their enjoyment in this knowledge, but without that I found it a fantastic read.
As well as great pacing, Kane writes his characters very well. Although they are described in slightly vague terms, they all have wonderfully distinct personalities. Brennus is born to kill, Fabiola determined to succeed at any cost, Romulua frustrated by his position in life and Tarquinius accepting as he knows it's all pre-destined. Kane's physical descriptions may not allow you to pick them out of a line up, but there's never any danger of getting their personalities mixed up.
Kane separates his heroes from his villains very well, too. Whilst many of us may find killing for entertainment unpleasant, the politicians are even more so. They believe themselves above the common people and the arrogance this gives them is used to excuse all sorts of corruption and distasteful behaviour. Killing for a living may be bad, but Kane ensures that we see that being a politician is even worse.
The one point at which Kane becomes most descriptive is in battle. Whether in the midst of a war or fighting one on one in the arena, he goes into great detail. It is so well and so lovingly written that you can almost see the droplets of blood hit the ground and feel every injury a fighter suffers. In a story that Kane has done well to make feel real, the screams and bloodshed of battle seem even more so. This may not suit the weak of stomach, but it's wonderful writing for the rest of us.
The one aspect I felt let the story down was the ending. Whilst I realise this book is merely the first in a series, I found the ending rather abrupt; it didn't so much end as just stop. I know there is more to come, but the characters seemed stranded in mid-flow and it was terribly frustrating. Kane had to pause somewhere, but the point at which that happened didn't feel right. Fortunately, what had gone before more than made up for this, but I put the book down feeling slightly disappointed, which was a pity and a little unfair considering how much I enjoyed it.
What is evident is that there is a long way to go for all the characters. If future parts are as compelling and well written in terms of both characters and story, they will be unmissable. No matter what the fates have in store for these characters, this is one legion that won't be forgotten by anyone who encounters it. With prices starting from as little as 99 pence on eBay, I would recommend an encounter as soon as you get the opportunity.

Today I wanted to share with you an easy, tasty recipe for Spicy Black Bean Corn Chowder. While in Napa with Bush's Beans a few weeks ago, I enjoyed a quick chili/chowder recipe, Spicy Black Bean and Corn Chowder, with yummy Sonoma Pesto.
I know we're moving into Spring and out of typical chili/chowder season but I think you'll find that this one is a good year round version. Packed with peppers, black beans, sweet potato, corn and spinach it's a satisfying and tasty meal. You could always change it up with your own fresh herbs and veggies from the summer garden.
A recipe for Sonoma Pesto accompanies the chowder recipe. The pesto, pretty similar to the Cilantro Roasted Pepper Pesto recently posted here, is a nice addition to the chowder but you could certainly top it with sour cream, or your favorite cheese – or both!
Be sure to keep this recipe in your back pocket for a quick, go-to dinner. It's really an easy and tasty dish. Plus it's healthy!
And while we're on the subject of beans, my good friend Michelle at What's Cooking has a post that discusses the…um…side affects, shall we say, from eating beans. Michelle explains, in a brief scientific way, what is happening to produce gaseous escapeous from eating beans, not to mention a great, kid friendly recipe called "Step on the Gas Baked Beans." Be sure to check it out.

In response to the letter "Kennedy calls senator prostitute and a call girl" (March 8) I fail to see how that comparison mitigates Rush Limbaugh's words. Although both used inmature, adolescent slurs to name-call, the most reprehensible offense came with the statement, " I want to see a video of her having sex." Those words reflect a pornographic voyeur enjoying the rape of human dignity and womanhood. People of character could never defend those words, nor the one who spoke them.

The Rams came off of their bye this week and for the second straight game the Rams blew out a team that had been labeled a contender before playing the Rams. With the win the Rams edged closer into the playoff before they head off to San Francisco, another contender fighting for a playoff spot. Here are the playoff standings headed into week 13.
1. Seahawks 10-1
2. Saints 9-2
3. Lions 6-5
4. Cowboys 6-5
5. Panthers 8-3
6. 49ers 7-4
7. Cardinals 7-4
8. Eagles 6-5
9. Bears 6-5
10. Packers 5-5-1
11. Rams 5-6
12. Giants 4-7
Go and try espn.com's playoff machine and play out your scenarios. I gave the Rams the benefit of the doubt finishing 9-7, but unfortunately the Packers tie and Rams loss to the Cowboys earlier in the season could come back to haunt them.
You have to look back at the Rams losses to the Falcons, Titans, and Seahawks and wish they had those games back.
Here are three games to keep an eye on this week:
Green Bay Packers @ Detroit Lions
Best case scenario for the Rams is that the Lions beat the Packers and run away with the NFC north. The more the Packers lose, the better for the Rams.
Chicago Bears @ Minnesota Vikings
The Rams need the Vikings to win this one and give the Bears a bad loss. Bears defense hasn't looked good recently and Adrian Peterson could have a good day, let's see if the Vikings can help the Rams out and get a victory.
Arizona Cardinals @ Philadelphia Eagles
This game has playoffs written all over it. If the Cardinals win, it looks like they could run away with that final playoff spot, if the Eagles win, the Rams would get a chance to move ahead of the Cardinals next week if they can beat the 49ers.
The Rams' chances of making the playoffs are slim, but here at Ramblin' Fan we are holding out hope until the Rams are mathematically out of the playoff race. The Rams have heated two good teams the in the past three weeks and will get another in the 49ers coming up.

Tolerance .
Martin devoted himself to exterminate racial segregation and thus prompted many to strive towards the same goal. Tolerance is not a luxury but a condition for maintaining the existence of humanity as a group, and most importantly, respect the rights of others despite our differences, be they social, racial, economic or cultural, because after all, the differences bring the diversity of the world.
At different times in history, it was noted that the mutual contribution overcame tyranny lonely. It was so in World War II, when nations defeated liberal oppressive dictatorships that encouraged the extermination of those who were different.
Although the concept of tolerance is far from simple, we should try to put it into practice, and keep thinking and looking for different ways and for peaceful co-exist with these differences in order not to start a 3rd world war.
We are equals. And together, we will be stronger

Should I worry if my toddler doesn't talk much?
My toddler babbles a lot but he only says a few understandable words and not very often. The pediatrician says he's doing fine and that all kids develop at different rates, but I know he's not talking as much as other kids his age. I'd love to hear from parents of reluctant talkers on what they do to encourage their children, when their kids finally did start talking, and any other advice to help me cope.

The pediatrician said my son should say 20 words by the time he's 18 months. I'm worried about what he'll say at his 18 mth well-check up. He did all of a sudden start saying a few words at 17.5 mths, but not as much as 20. I'm glad to read that I'm not the only parent with this concern.posted 11/03/2007 by valsell
My son is 18 months and only says about 10 to 15 words, but what makes me crazy is that he doesn't say Mama or Mom or Mommy it seems that he doesn't like to say my name, he knows how to say it I hear it all the time when he is playing, does anybody know if I'm doing something wrong?, I feel so frustrated I know he understands almost everything (of course simple things). Thanks for everyone postings I don't feel alone anymore. Good Luck!!!posted 10/22/2007 by Ximena77
My 22 month old son does not talk much. He says Dad Dad and Bye abd HI. Every once in awhile he says Mama, but not much. Is this normal? He is very strong willed, but does not fuss much for things.posted 09/26/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
This website is amazing! I've been trying to look online to see if its normal for me 20 month old not to talk that much and now I know its not just him! My son is a very smart child, he can do almost anything! Its amazing. He just wont talk. He can do a little sign language and say a few words mostly "dog" for EVERYTHING! Everything he says is dog. I don't really know what to do, seems like i've tried everything. We read we talk all the time to him and around him. I just don't think anything will help him talk sooner. I'm really glad to know that he isn't the only child that doesn't talk very muchposted 09/24/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I am a single mom of 23 month old twins boy and a girl and they say some words but not like I think thay should I talk to them all the time and I read to them all the time they count to 10 but dont talk that much glad that there are other kids out there like them...posted 09/01/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
My DS, 21 mos., says a few words (Mom, Dada, car, bird, cracker and others) and only started with "no" recently, but mostly he seems to be a man of few words. I know he understands words because he can follow a direction or will run to the door when asked if he wants to go out. He can also point to items in books when asked, including basic shapes. He will also flip through a book to find a particular picture when we ask him where it is. All of his other development is right on track so I'll wait until his 2 year Dr. appt. and ask the pediatrician.posted 03/15/2006 by JustLaugh
I wish I had an answer to this but I have concerns too. My daughter is 29 months old. Very bright - can point to all numbers to 10 and many letters by me naming them but barely talks. She has always been quiet, but very active and curious. Not worried about her intellectual skills, but why isn't she talking much? Says Ma Ma, Da Da, more and probably 25 words. No sentences or even jibberish. Just randomly uses one word. My son was slightly late talking too, but used a lot of jibberish at this age with words(he talked in his own strange language with normal intonation). Should I get an evaluation, and by whom?posted 03/31/2011 by owenbsma
my 20 month old fights us when it's time to go to bed.. He turns into a noodle and we have to pick him up and carry him into bed but once he gets there he'll lay down and go to sleep with no problem.. but getting him there is a royal battle ..posted 04/22/2011 by djsmema1
same here! can anyone help pls???posted 06/01/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
My 18 month old daughter can say over 70 words (or knows what they are if you ask her to point to them). She loves her picture books. I found a four set kid encyclopedia (ages 5 and up, figuring she'd use it later), but she LOVES pointing to the pictures and naming the animals and their sounds, as well as people, trucks, fruit, bugs, etc. They are "real life" pictures of people, places and things, so I think that helps then when we are out and see these animals or other things. She plays with some of her toys, but prefers her books over anything else. We also talk with her constantly, telling her what we are doing and any time she points to something, we tell her what it is "bus" and she usually won't repeat it at first (almost like she's processing), and then if we say, "can you say bus" she'll repeat "Bah!" Her "s's" on words aren't there yet, as well as some vowels.. For example, "Elmo" is "Ap-o"... For some, I think they talk early, and others "process" and talk later?!posted 11/15/2008 by BabyTLo

Although this city is a nice, beautiful place to live with many lakes and trees, it is also full of people of older age. Driving here is very frustrating. It is very hard to get through the city council (and others) because of the more conservative attitudes held throughout the community. Therefore, the city isn't living up to its full potential. It is a wonderful place to grow up as a child and to settle back down again, but if you want to experience life to its full extent, then Fergus might not be the right place for you.[read more...]

No, please do not start up a PC vs. Mac debate in this thread. I just need help on installing Virtual PC for my MacBook, because I want to be able to download Online Poker onto my Mac. Since PartyPoker and PokerStars have yet to come up with a nondownload or Mac-compatible download, I am trying out my sister's Virtual PC. I can't use Full Tilt because I'm not 21 and I don't want to risk having any winnings taken away because I'm only 18.
I am having problems with the installation of Virtual PC, and if anyone could help me out, I'd appreciate it. I don't want to drive to the Apple Store to the Genius Bar for them to tell me that I'm missing something very simple.

Community Gardens A Personal Experience
by Concetta Tahir
I first moved into the Richmond high rise thirty years ago. I lived on the 15th floor; I had never lived up that high before. I didn't want to live there. It was a very rough environment. Concrete, hard, racist, cold. I felt my personal space was threatened, being in the lift so close to all sorts of people. The state of my health at the time compounded all these issues and more. I did manage to get a letter about the state of my health and how living in such an environment would not be a positive thing, to put it mildly. Plus I had a baby. The Ministry of Housing ignored the letter and me saying to them that I couldn't cope living in such an environment. Too much concrete; I need trees, grass and flowers. The estate needs greenery badly. It felt very, very unhealthy.
The first I knew about the Community Gardens project was when the first of the two community gardens on the Richmond Estate Highett Street block, was when workmen were fencing the site. I thought at the time, like anyone would, that something was about to happen. Next I recall a gathering of residents. I cannot unfortunately remember the exact date. I did not know about the plan for a community garden on the estate as at the time I was isolated. I did not get involved. I found mixing with people very challenging because of my state of health. The Community Gardens were undoubtedly a breath of fresh air. A very positive move. I wanted a garden too. If only I had got involved.
The Community Gardens in public housing estates as far as I know have been a joint venture between Cultivating Community, City of Yarra and the Department of Housing. One of the main philosophies of Cultivating Communities is that through the Community Gardens they can promote healthy eating. Studies conducted over a long period of time concluded that the obesity problem was more of a problem in lower income areas. Studies done not by Cultivating Communities but by health professionals in the City of Yarra, Richmond, Fitzroy, Collingwood particularly show that there is a very high incidence of type 2 diabetes. One of the main reasons for this being our American fast food western lifestyle. I myself did not fully realise how serious diabetes really is until I completed two diabetes information sessions which each of the complete sessions lasted six weeks. So as you can imagine the Community Gardens are very important in what they promote.
The Community Gardens in my opinion promote good health and well being. A gathering place for the gardeners. We exchange information about the plants and recipes in a non-threatening environment. From my experience there are not too many negative things one could say about the Community Gardens. The Highett Street Gardens on the Richmond Estate has recently been renovated.
The styrofoam boxes have gone. It has a chicken house. They also have a pizza and bread oven.
My plot number at the Lennox Street Garden is number 17. I've been involved with the Community Gardens for roughly 10 years. I can access the garden at any time but to water my plants with tap water I can only go on Wednesdays and Sundays before 8am in the morning and after 8pm in the evening. At the moment I'm growing silverbeet, potatoes, celery, parsley, chives and mint. But not as much silverbeet as in previous years. I consider myself lucky to have this opportunity and I'm very happy to be a part of the community garden. Although I couldn't see any advantages of living in the high rise when I first moved in, it does have its advantages .There have been lots of improvements on the estate. As far as health and colour goes the community gardens are the major plusses.@4 years ago with 1 note

It took a little extra to get there, but the Pittsburgh Pirates sent the home faithful to their vehicles happy on Opening Day Monday, after Neil Walker clubbed a walk-off solo home run into the right field seats off Carlos Villanueva, giving the Pirates a 1-0 win over the Cubs.
Chicago (0-1) failed to deliver in multiple run-scoring opportunities, finishing the afternoon 0-for-11 with runners in scoring position, despite putting the leadoff man aboard five times against Pirates pitching.
Walker led off the bottom of the tenth and took a full count pitch from Villanueva (0-1) deep into the seats, throwing his hands up as soon as it left the bat, leaving the Cubs with a bitter taste in their mouth on a day when Jeff Samardzija was masterful.
The right-hander tossed seven scoreless innings, scattering five hits and allowing just two walks – near mirroring his start on Opening Day last season, when he led the club to a 3-1 win over the Pirates at PNC Park. This time, though, the offense failed to support its ace.
Of the club's six hits, leadoff man Emilio Bonifacio had four – including a double off reliever Mark Melancon. He also added a stolen base, but was picked off late in the game by Bryan Morris (1-0) and narrowly missed being picked off what would have been a second time earlier in the contest.
Samardzija's counterpart, Francisco Liriano, was certainly deserving of a win, but will take a no decision after throwing six shutout innings in which he changed speeds and locations masterfully, striking out ten Cubs hitters.
In the top of the fifth inning, first-year skipper Rick Renteria became the first manager to take advantage of the new review system when Samardzija laid down a bunt with men on first and second with no outs. Liriano fielded the ball, throwing to third, before the third baseman, Pedro Alvarez, turned and threw to first to retire the Cubs' pitcher on a bang-bang play.
After reviewing the call, it was upheld. The Pirates (1-0) later challenged the pick-off of Bonifacio, which had initially been a safe call, and it was overturned.
The two teams are off tomorrow, but will return to action in a night contest on Wednesday at 6:05 p.m. CT. Edwin Jackson (0-0, 0.00 ERA) will take on Charlie Morton (0-0, 0.00 ERA).

Hope everyone is enjoying their Wednesday! And hope y'all are all voting in my polls! I'm looking for your feedback and loving how some of you are agreeing with me and some of you are going your own way! Show me your opinion!
Well, LA has almost closed it out and taken Lord Stanley. And with that, the offseason is approaching quicker than expected! But nothing major can happen until July 1st, so we're good.
The next report card is on #24, the Captain's brother himself, Jordie Benn:
Jordie Benn has played for the Stars for the past 3 seasons. He has slowly updated his play and is turning into a quality defenseman. This past season was a perfect example of this:
Season recap:
Jordie Benn mainly played for the Texas Stars and filled in on the Dallas Stars' defense during the lockout season. During his time in Big D, he scored 1 goal and pulled 5 assists out of 26/48 games. But that was where he was still a youngling learning the ropes at the age of 25. He mainly filled in for injuries, considering the Stars were already set on their defensive strategy with Trevor Daley, Alex Goligoski, Stephane Robidas, Brenden Dillon, and Philip Larsen, with Aaron Rome and Jamie Oleksiak sharing the 6th spot along with Benn.
This season was a different story for the rookie's first FULL 82 game stint in Dallas. Benn mainly partnered up with Sergei Gonchar and Brenden Dillon. He played 78 of a possible 82 games in the 2013-14 regular season. He netted 3 goals on the year along with 17 assists on an average of 19 minutes on the ice per night.
Now some may be feeling that these numbers are straight up AWFUL and that Benn should get his bags packed on a one way trip to Anywherelseville, Mother Earth. But I'm here to tell you they ARE NOT bad statistics. Now you're saying, "But Josh, how come these statistics are acceptable, yet Ray Whitney and Shawn Horcoff's statistics are less than memorable even though they have more goals and assists?"
Well, it's because this. Jordie Benn is not only younger than these vets, but he plays a completely different position. Defensive players are not meant to score, but instead are meant to defend (funny how those words are so similar). His work as a young manager of the blue line was impressive because he did his job of stopping the opposing offense and getting the puck up the ice to his own offense. This is what a defender is meant to do, in case any have forgotten. And with his balanced attack and improving skill set, he could easily move up in the ranks of the Stars' back 2's and find himself among the high ranks.
Playoff recap:
Benn's playoff appearance fits perfectly with what I said regarding the true job of defenders. He played through all 6 of the Stars playoff games and came out with no goals and 3 assists. But his balanced, very similar to Connauton's, just a little more advanced, is what the Stars need him focusing on going forward, not playoff numbers.
Contract situation:
Jordie Benn had a one year deal inking him with the Stars organization through the 2012-13 lockout season. But with his breakout performance in those 26 games, the Stars signed him to a 3 year extension before training camp of the past season. The contract consisted of a deal with Benn through the 2015-16 season and a cap hit of $700,000 along with a variety of yearly salaries. He earned $600,000 for the past season and will earn $650,000 in the upcoming season, along with a boost to $850,000 in his last season that he's signed through. So a low-budget highly effective defender, I like that deal!
In my opinion:
If I haven't already made it clear enough, Jordie Benn needs to stay on the Stars. He's a quality two-way defender that handles tough situation in the defensive zone well. And he can only get better from here. At 26, he's got plenty of years left for improvement to get him to the top and being a part of the young Stars squad, he fits in perfect. If the Stars can hold on to him for the years down the road, they won't regret him. His style of play on defense is what many teams lack and he needs to continue to execute his strategy, it will pay off on the highway to the Cup.
You may think I'm crazy, but in my opinion Jordie is the third best defenseman they have. His style is just too good to pass up and he has shown it over the last year, thus showing how he earned his spot on the same bench as his bro. They need him in order to help keep the defense stay where it's at, as well as another addition, as I've already said, to excel them to the Cup using a newly enforced blue line mixed with experienced net-minding and a high powered young offense. Jordie is the key to the making or breaking of the defense.
The bottom line on Jordie Benn:
Jordie Benn is a scruffy-faced defenseman that no one knew about at the beginning of the NHL lockout season. And once his name was revealed, everyone just took him for Jamie's older brother and stuck him in the back of their mind. But over the past two seasons, he's proved that he is a quality blue-liner and that he deserves his position. At the beginning of training camp, he was signed to an extension and many expected it to be a sole AHL job considering he was up against "Big Rig" Jamie Oleksiak and that balanced guy Kevin Connauton. But Jordie made sure he fought through the adversity and found himself where he has always dreamed of being : an NHL star alongside his brother and some of the best guys he'll ever meet.
The Stars, having Benn inked through 205-16, could do two things:
They could keep him. He's proved himself to be a valuable asset to the defense, this past year especially. His skills will most definitely improve over the offseason and training camp, and he'll bring the true heat in the years to come. With the young age and the point he's already at in his career, any team would be lucky to call him one of their own. Along with his contract which barely even makes a dent in the Stars overall cap space, the organization will have plenty of breathing room to make a more than generous offer, especially with Whitney and Thomas being apparently erased for good by Nill, to a Top 2 defenseman or 2nd line center, as well as a backup goalie. And after all that, maybe Benn and a few other youngin's could get a nice little raise and extension if needed?
They could also trade him. If they were looking for a defender from a rebuilding team, he would be the perfect fit to replace someone of that caliber. Or he could sweeten a huge deal that could bring a big name center to Dallas. But this option seems unlikely due to Benn's rising stock and stat line. Plus, I don't think that trading the Captain's brother would go over very well…
As I continually say, all we can do is speculate until the offseason officially opens on July 1st, though LA is trying to get it here as "quickly" (haha) as possible. When that day arrives, I'll have much more assured answers for you. Until then, we'll be our own little Jim Nill's (in our heads, sadly).
Comments please and GO STARS

I had an early face lift (at about 38 years because I had had an eating disorder and used to blow up and then deflate on a yearly basis - also had been a sun worshipper - so looked like a bag of the proverbial) & my expectations were exceeded. If you are ready for one & the surgeon is good & you have the money, go for it

I was able to name every character other than that spiky haired teleporter kid, (if anyone knows who it is can you tell me?) and I think I'm the only person in the fandom bummed to see static.
Don't get me wrong, I love static. But when static shock did show up, I had wanted it to be a crossover episode with static's TV show. Then Bart showed up and richies voice actor was stolen, so I knew it wouldn't happen. But I'm still bummed because I loved the original series so much.

Someone requested pics of my fair city, Minneapolis, which I realized is a great idea as I don't share personal stuff nearly enough. This one doubles as my banner but I'm very fond of it - taken with a crappy old flip camera from the top of a famous theater in town, with the smoked glass and below-zero temperature the only filters ;).
More pics to come!
