As a member of the Rhode Island College gymnastics team from 2008-2012, I know what it means to be a division III gymnast. I also know what it feels like to have your team ripped away from you. Petitions like this are all too familiar to me, because in March of 2011, RIC administration announced that the gymnastics program would be eliminated, leaving 12 girls completely heartbroken and disillusioned by the very school they showed pride and dedication for. However, I also know what it is like to fight for what you believe in, to stand up for yourself, and to fight for what is right. That fight is the reason why I was able to have a senior year last year. That fight is the reason why the RIC women's gymnastics team bounced back and is better than ever. I now coach gymnastics full time and I am studying to become a gymnastics judge. I see every day what my gymnasts aspire to be, and I only hope that there will be a college gymnastics team for them to compete for.
Division III gymnastics needs to be saved. We cannot keep eliminating opportunities for young gymnasts to participate in sports. We cannot continue to favor male athletes over female athletes. To the Gustavus administration: are your hands clean? When I was fighting for RIC, I found a lot of Title IX and other ethical discrepancies, as well as legal evidence of gymnastics teams who were elminated, sued their colleges,and won because of such ethical discrepancies. If it happened with my team and others, don't think it can't happen again.
Gymnastics is a rapidly growing sport, and as 2012 is an Olympic year, gymnastics participation is going to rise even more. Gymnastics is the most watched sport in the summer Olympics. Gymnastics builds confidence, self-discipline, time management skills, and a lifelong habit of physical fitness and health. Academically speaking, collegiate gymnasts are arguably the best in the country. More than 35 percent of NCAA gymnasts have achieved a 3.5 or better in school over the previous two years. Graduation rates for gymnasts exceed 90 percent in college, a much higher rate than average. More NCAA Women of the Year Finalist academic awards were awarded to gymnasts than any other sport and at a rate of two to three times of other sports. Gymnasts also received more NCAA post-graduate Scholarships than any other female sport over the last 5 years. For more statistics about the benefits of gymnastics, the article can be seen here: http://ezinearticles.com/?What-Gymnastics-Can-Mean-to-a-Gymnasts-Grades-and-Academics&id=61996
It takes years and years of training (I had 12 under my belt at the time) to be at the level to compete even at the Division III level. At the private club level, gymnasts put in more hours over more consecutive weeks than almost any other sport when training. By eliminating college programs, the message being sent to these young athletes is that all that hard work does not pay off and is not worthy of continuing at the collegiate level. This is NOT the message we should be sending. Every gymnast deserves an opportunity to continue the sport she loves.
There can be no justification whatsoever to eliminate a college gymnastics team. With every team that we lose, we take away the dreams and opportunities of hundreds and hundreds of young girls.
Gymnastics has made me the motivated, ambitious, tenacious, hard-working, disciplined, and confident young woman that I am today. Gustavus administration, I beg you. Your program is a gem to your college and your state. Don't take it away from these ladies!
Sarah Chrane, former Rhode Island College gymnast and captain

I made a sewing kit out of old Thompson bags for Ryan! They were absolutely filthy, which I think adds a nice touch. This is the first time I have ever tried to sew-to-make anything other than CD covers or repairing my clothes. I need to work on sewing straight lines (fail) and finishing my threads. I also REALLY NEED sharp fabric scissors. Aside from cruddy line work, I am really psyched with the way it came out. I used the drawstrings that come with Thompson bags for the closure. Hope he likes it and that it remains useful.

The SNIPER! is a dynamic and universal opening system that fills in the gaps for the Black player who plays the Accelerated Dragon,the Dzindzi Indian,
or other Black Fianchetto defences. Black's system of development with 1…g6 and 2...Bg7 allows White to occupy the center, but in true SNIPER! Modern style, Black strikes back with an early c5!
The SNIPER! can lead to many original or barely touched upon positions in which Black has very good theoretical chances, but even better practical chances as his opponent is on unfamiliar turf. The SNIPER! is also very rich in potential transpositions into favorable Sicilian, Dzindzi Indian, King's Indian, or Benko Gambit type positions. Grandmaster Ron W. Henley has spent years playing 1…g6 systems and with The SNIPER! has now bridged the gap between the Accelerated Dragon and his beloved Dzindzi Indian. In The SNIPER! DVDs he will show you how to play and his own personal recommendations against each of White's major third move alternatives, as well as special antidotes to the Maroczy Bind and English Opening.

Main Event was the DJ for our wedding at the Aldrich Mansion. The DJ, Bob, had everyone on the dance floor all night. People of all ages were out there dancing. Bob was familiar with the venue and knew how to work the introductions, first dance, and other traditions perfectly. Our friends are getting married next weekend and Bob is the DJ again and we just can't wait!
Michelle at Main Event was the photographer for our wedding. Michelle did an amazing job at our wedding. Michelle was familiar with our ceremony location as well as our reception location. This was very helpful because Michelle knew where to take the best pictures. Michelle took all the photos that I requested and the photos came out amazing. The website does say about an 8-12 week turnaround for photos and it was a little over 12 weeks for our photos. I wish we could have got them sooner, but they were worth the wait!

We used main event weddings for photography, dj, lighting, videography, and photo booth. We had such a wonderful experience with them we can't say enough great things! From day one bob and Michelle treated us like family, they came all the way to NJ for our engagement shoot, sat through countless retakes of our video love story, and went above and beyond the day of our wedding. They have amazingly creative ideas and a wonderful staff of people that they work with. Our day went off without a hitch and we couldn't be happier with the end result, our guests danced all night, the photo booth was a huge hit, the up lighting looked great, and so far what we've seen of the video and photos is phenomenal, we can't wait to see them all! They're a very talented group and we are so thankful we chose them for our big day. Thank you guys so much! Xoxo

We chose Michelle as our photographer overall I was happy with her work and my pictures came out great.
Cons: we had a hard time getting in touch with her and she never seemed to respond to emails or return calls. She told us turnaround time for pictures would be 8 weeks and the weeks kept getting pushed back. In the end it took almost double that time to get our pictures. I wouldn't have minded if she was more realistic up front. We had a summer wedding and were hoping to give pictures as gifts for Christmas, but were not able to. We were very excited to see our pictures. A few of our friends got married around the same time and used different photographers and all paid less. Most of them got their pictures back within 2 weeks and those that did not got a preview of about 20-30 pictures to tide them over. Something like that would have been great.
The day of our wedding she seemed miserable and didn't smile once. This didn't overly bother me, however, it is your wedding day and everyone is happy and having a good time. All our other vendors were pleasant so I would say this is another negative.
Lastly, we got the photobooth through Main Event and I was very disappointed with the photo booth assistant. He didn't tell people about the video feature of the photobooth and was missing from the booth for good chunks of time. He only brought one glue stick and it apparently broke half way through the night so the book was only half done. I was really excited about the photobooth and having an album from our wedding that night, but the book he put together was no better than a toddlers work.

Main Event Weddings did a great job at my daughter's wedding. Michelle Carpenter is the photographer. She is very creative in her photography technique. She uses everything around her as a backdrop for her pictures and the result is amazing. Her creativity is limitless and the end result outstanding. She encompasses both traditional and a more contemporary format. Bob Carpenter was our DJ. Bob is an excellent DJ. Both he and Michelle know how to keep the party going.

Michelle is a truly talented photographer! She handled difficult lighting situations well, producing stunning photos of our outdoor ceremony, and not only masterfully coordinated our formal photos in a tight time frame but also got everyone to loosen up and have fun with it. We LOVE how our photos turned out.
Michelle was also an extremely calming and warm presence to have by my side during the wedding - when my bustle broke before the reception, she was there with my bridesmaids fixing the mini-emergency. I highly recommend Michelle!

What does one say about Michelle and Bob and their staff? Exceptional service, wonderful music, tremendous photographs and the best fun at a wedding. I am the mother of the bride and am so happy that we selected this couple for my daughter's wedding. They both made the day a tremendous success and they both are truly vested in getting to know the family before the wedding. What they say is true: You become part of their family and that statement is reflected in the quality of their work! Hire these folks if you can and you will not be disappointed. Thanks so much to both of you.

I can't say enough about this amazing team. The entire Main Event team helped make our wedding day just perfect. Michelle is an amazing photographer (see my comments on her review page!), Bobby is a perfect DJ for those parties that never want to sit down and want to dance the night away! He doesn't play what he wants he feels out the guests and plays what they will respond to most! (his workout mixes are top notch too!) He also creates new and fresh ideas from video messages to guests, lighting, etc! Jeremy did a great job capturing our day on video and the photo booth kept our guests busy creating pictures and memories for us to enjoy for years to come! I especially liked that the photo booth allowed for video messages too! This team excels at what they offer and they truly enjoy what they do! We created an amazing relationship with them during the planning and day of. A relationship that is so close and work that is so exceptional that my sister has asked them to capture her wedding day in 2014! They care about their clients and work with you to make sure your day is just perfect! They are constantly thinking of new ideas and new ways to bring their products to their brides/grooms! We would highly recommend the entire team and can't wait to work with you again at my sister's wedding and for years to come!

I could not ask for better pictures from my wedding! Renee was quick with getting people's photos taken and moving right along so we could get to our reception even with quite a large bridal party. When we got the pictures back I was pleasantly surprised at how great they were edited and what a large selection received! She is very friendly too and down to earth so it wasn't strictly professional, but she knew how to have fun as well! Thanks Renee, Michelle and Bobby!

We fell in love with the staff at Main Event the minute we met them. What was meant to be a brief meeting turned into a couple of hours and our hopes and dreams of an amazing wedding were solidified! Renee from Main Event called me the week before the wedding we touched base on exactly what photo's should be taken and which to avoid. The day of Renee was in the right place at the right time and went about her business taking all the shots that even I had forgotten about. I also had photo's done with Michelle from Main Event and I honestly can't wait to see the wedding photo's I know they are going to leave me speachless!!! They also provided a photobooth for us and let me just say - every single guest said what an amazing and fun time they had in there!!!
MEW also provided our DJ services! Kenny was amazing and never missed a beat!!! The party kept going right up until midnight and everyone had a blast. I can't thank Bob, Michelle, Renee and Kenny enough for the amazing heart and soul they put into making our wedding everything we wanted and more!!!

Main Event Weddings is an incredible, talented, and exciting team to work with. They absolutely know what they're doing and their passion for what they do truly shows in their end results. We worked with Michelle Carpenter as our Photographer and I can't tell you how many compliments she received during and after the wedding for all of her work. I highly recommend her for the job because she has everything it takes to give you the memories in your photos that I feel every Bride deserves. The day goes by way too fast and her photos will tell the story which I for one will cherish forever. Second, we worked with Bob Carpenter (our DJ) who is the perfect spokesman to make announcements, he's full of energy and personality, and he cares about one thing - bringing the life to party!!! He fits the perfect description for what a professional DJ should deliver to any and every wedding so we absolutely recommend him 100%. Third we chose to go with a video and again my compliments go to Main Event as a team because Jeremy Abrams who shot our video worked perfectly with Michelle and Bob to create another memory for us by capturing all of the highlighted moments on our wedding day. Finally, we totally rocked the Photo Booth throughout the entire reception and it was such a big hit, I feel like it's basically the THING to do now :)!!!!!!! Overall - it's amazing that one company, MAIN EVENT WEDDINGS, has ALL of the above and more to offer. The best decision we made for our special day!!!!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!! :)

We used Michelle as our photographer and Bobby as our DJ - and could not be ANY happier with that decision!! Talk about a Dream Team! As soon as we had our initial meeting with them, we knew they needed to be involved in our special day - they were so fun and passionate about their work and we knew they would bring that energy to our wedding. Main Event made it easy for us to tailor the music and images to our taste, through their website as well as a follow-up meeting - we went into that day at complete ease, knowing that our music and photos would turn out amazing. We were never more right! Michelle was a blast to hang out with through the day and even turned into an emergency hair stylist for me when the wind pulled my veil out! We were blown away when we saw all of the images she captured - she brought every memory we had to life and now we get to relive them always. All of our guests are STILL raving at how amazing our DJ was, the floor was packed all night. DJ Bobby also played the music for our ceremony and went above and beyond by adding some staging and lighting to the space to give it a more romantic feel - we had never even thought to do that and I was blown away when I walked through the door to say I Do. The uplighting throughout our entire ceremony was amazing too - looking back through the photos now it just looks like a kaleidoscope of colors across the images! I can not stress enough how much I would recommend Main Event to any bride and groom!! You will not be disappointed!!

We used Michelle for our photography, Bob for our DJ, and Jeremy for our videography. Main Event was always so professional and so easy to get a hold of via email or phone.
Michelle: She's amazing. We especially loved her ability to handle our large group of attendants and to keep things moving. I can't comment on our wedding pictures yet since we haven't got them back, but we used Michelle for our engagement session and absolutely adore our pictures. I'm confident that we'll love our wedding pictures, too. And not only is she a great photographer, she has such a fun personality, which is absolutely necessary on your wedding day since you spend so much time with your photographer.
Bob: Also amazing. He kept the dance floor full all night long. I was a little nervous that people wouldn't dance at our venue because the dance floor was the foyer of a mansion, but no one seemed to care with all the great music he played!
Jeremy: I can't wait to see his video. He was quietly in the background all day, so I didn't get to know him as well as Bob and Michelle. Nonetheless, he was so easy to work with. He was also very professional about calling me the day before the wedding to finalize the details and to see if I needed anything else from him.
Bottom line: Main Event is awesome! They are professional, fun, and their prices are reasonable for the quality of service you get. We highly recommend them!

We are sooo happy that we chose Main Event Weddings to be apart of our wedding day!! THANK YOU Bob, Michelle, Renee and Jeremy for AMAZING results!! One of the best things about choosing Main Event is that we were able to use one vendor for all our services!! It was one of the best decisions! After experiencing the work of Main Event Weddings at a friends wedding, my husband and I were positive we wanted to have them be part of our wedding day! From the moment we left our first meeting with Bob and Michelle we were so excited to work with them and knew we made the best decision!! I had already looked at every possible wedding picture that Michelle had taken and LOVED her work! Although we had never experienced Bob in action prior to our wedding, we had watched many of his wedding clips and knew he would be perfect! Days leading up, they kept in contact and made sure all of the final details were set and ready for a perfect day ahead! Michelle, along with Renee, did an amazing job!! We absolutely LOVE all of our pictures!! ~wish we could frame every single one! They both captured so many details that we even missed that day! It is definitely worth having two photographers to get every shot! Thank you!! And Bob definitely got the party started and got our guests on the dance floor and kept them there all night!! We had so much fun~Didn't want it to ever end!! Thank you!! We have since watched our video many times! We love it! Thank you Jeremy! It captures so many moments that we will cherish forever! We could not be happier with our choice in using Main Event!! They are so personable, professional and passionate about what they do!!! We absolutely recommend all three services!!

I used Main Event Weddings on Sept 5th for my wedding. We used them for DJ services, photography, and videography. THEY WERE AMAZING!
We still talk about it a thousand times every day. We just can not get over how smoothly everything ran on the day of our wedding--and it was all thanks to Main Events! They were so much fun and very relaxed which was exactly what we were looking for. There is no part of the wedding or the reception that I would change. Everyone was just amazed at how everything fit perfectly into place. Michelle was our photographer - I do not know how she did what she did but she was amazing (and so much fun!!) Everywhere I looked she was right there getting that "perfect shot"! Mike was our videographer. He was awesome too! He was everywhere I looked! Bob was our DJ and was great! He really got the crowd involved! The dance floor was always packed! We also had him do two photo montages that played during my dance with my dad and my husbands dance with his mom. We did this as a surprise for our parents and they came out awesome! I would definitely recommend it to anyone! It was a very personal touch. Our guests have been calling us since the wedding telling us that it was the funnest wedding they have ever been to! Everyone comments on how great the DJ and the music was and how the photographer and videographer were everywhere!! I would recommend Main Events to anyone planning a wedding! They made our wedding day so incredibly amazing!

Bobby with Main Event Weddings was such a pleasure to work with and provided the best DJ services we've ever experienced! He is a true professional and entertainer. Bobby has such a friendly, warm, fun personality that was contagious with all our family and friends. Our guests are still raving about Bobby and what a wonderful time they had at our wedding. His music selections were perfect for our crowd and he spaced our many activities throughout the night very well. Bobby also provided uplighting in our reception room. The lights created a warm, elegant and fun ambiance. We would highly recommend Bobby to anyone and would hire him again in a heartbeat for any occasion!

A care home hosted a range of activities for residents at its summer fete.
Staff and residents at Gable Court Nursing Home, in Roxy Avenue, Chadwell Heath, enjoyed entertainment from a singer as well as cakes and refreshments.
The event was attended by Redbridge's deputy mayor Linda Huggett.
The home's activity coordinator, Michele Labonne, said: "Because of the rain we had to rush back and put the tables in the lounge, but we [still] had a lovely time.
"Everybody enjoyed themselves and the residents were happy with the entertainer. It was a good afternoon."
The fete raised £502.83 for Gable Court's residents' fund, which is used to buy presents for them on their birthdays and other treats.

I agree. It's easier to follow a paleo diet and just deal with the fact the the FDA doesn't require 'gluten free' foods to be truly free from gluten. I try to stay away from processed gluten free anything. It's really hard.
I have never tried a Bob's Red Mill product. I've heard they were a good company run by good people. Since the day I was diagnosed with this crappy disease, I've heard that they were the answer to a celiac's dreams. Tastes great. Completely gluten-free. Yada yada yada.
But then last week, somebody pinged me and told me that, while technically gluten-free because of our insanely stupid regulation that still allows gluten in gluten-free items (a rant for another day), Bob's Red Mill products actually contains gluten, albeit under the 20ppm allowed by law.
Honestly, I was taken aback. I had just assumed because of their popularity among the celiac community, they were 100% gluten free.
Then a few days later I heard from a fellow celiac who got real sick eating one of their products. And then I did a bit more digging and read some more complaints. So I reached out to the company directly and asked them how safe their product was for somebody with severe celiac disease. Here is their response:
Our gluten free facility only processes products that test below the International Standard for gluten-free of 20 parts per million using ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) testing. Often gluten levels are lower than this, but we can't guarantee that.
Before I decided to write this blog post, I reached out to my Facebook community and asked them if they've ever gotten sick from Bob's. (Yeah…I know…I'm like an investigative reporter.)
If I received no negative responses, I wouldn't write the post. After all, I do not want to spread unwarranted fear or misconceptions. There is enough of that going around in the celiac community.
Here is a sampling of the responses I received:
"Never have become sick from it."
"I can't tolerate their products."
"Never. And I'm very sensitive."
"I have gotten sick off of their pancake mix."
"I've used Red Mill products for over 30 years with no problems."
"I've only heard negative things, so I've never tried."
"We use it in all of our bread and baked goods at our facility and we have never had a customer get sick."
"I've eaten it every day for almost a year so have no idea why it's making me sick now."
"I've never had a problem with any of their flours or starches."
"I have had trouble with their Sorghum flour & oats."
And that's sort of how it went. A mixed bag of responses.
You see…I have a dream. It's not a dream where I can eat pizza, beer and bagels again. I've accepted my celiac fate.
But I do dream of the day when gluten-free means gluten FREE. When a product is labeled gluten-free, it's gluten free. When a restaurant makes a meal they say is gluten-free, it's gluten-free.
It's not asking much. I just want us all to stay healthy.
I agree. It's easier to follow a paleo diet and just deal with the fact the the FDA doesn't require 'gluten free' foods to be truly free from gluten. I try to stay away from processed gluten free anything. It's really hard.
Agreed. I have found that the majority of products labeled "gluten free," as well as those that fellow celiacs report no problems with, (kraft products, kellogg's crap, any grocery store brand that isn't certified) tend to make me sick. I have gotten to the point where I truly only feel safe eating whole foods that I have rinsed off. It's healthier but it still sucks sometimes.
" below 20 ppm" doesn't mean it has any ppm. It could be 0 or 1. There is no test for 0. We assume cabbage has no gluten but it would test, if they tested cabbages, at less than 20 ppm. I won't even try to argue with how small 1 ppm is. Or that our immune systems ignore many things ( germs, viruses, piece of paper stuck to a Popsicle ) at a 20 ppm measurement and we don't get sick. Or even that, sometimes other foods or slight food poisoning, stomach viruses, too much fat or dairy to process, etc. can give us gluten type reactions.
Bob's could test their products, made in a gf facility, at lower levels. I think there is a reliable one to test for 5 ppm. But it sounds like you would still think they somehow put 4 ppm of gluten in the product. Not sure how that would help the product and be worth the expense.
Eat what you want. Live how you want to. I know I will.
I don't use any of their products as I'm allergic to a few gf grains and I make my own flour mix, buying larger, more cost effective quantities. I haven't had much luck either with processed "gluten free" products. Jeez, why does "gluten free" have to be in quotes!!!
I wonder if some of the people who've gotten sick from it were careful about buying the one that says 'gluten free'? I've almost grabbed the wrong package a few times because at my local store it's all mixed together – and it's annoying that they make one corn meal, for example, in their gluten free facility, and another one in their regular facility.
Personally, I've never had a problem with any of the Bob's Red Mill stuff that says 'gluten free', and I'm very sensitive. I don't eat their products all that often because we do more of a paleo diet these days – but I went for several months eating their gluten free oats for breakfast and never had a problem.
Celiacs aren't that stupid. I am VERY careful to be sure EVERYTHING I buy is gluten free.
If you're going to call out Bob's, to be fair, you should call out many, many more manufacturers of GF food. Here is a handy table that shows that none on this table (and they are some big names in GF) state that they are 100% free of any ppm. http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/PreventingCrossContamination/a/Gluten-Free-PPM-table.htm
It is really is individual trial and error with every product made by every manufacturer to see what is ok for your body. I was one of the ones who mentioned that I can't tolerate Bob's sorghum products, but I can't tolerate ANY sorghum products.
Just another FYI about Bobs… Their xanthan gum is actually started on wheat starch. They claim that that the product never touches gluten and that the end result is gluten free but I think it is something celiacs should know.
Also, I have always gotten sick from their products but to be fair almost all gluten free products make me feel ill. It is hard to tell if it is just the grains or if it is the small amount of gluten.
The real question is how do we trust again and what do we trust? Our bodies have turned against us by getting sick when we eat gluten. SO, we have lost faith in food, the preparers of food, the manufacturers of food, anyone related to food–even ourselves. Is it gluten making me sick or is it something else my body doesn't like? How do I know, what do I trust? Sensitive people have it harder than anyone. Are they sensitive to just gluten or is there more? Does it change over time? And for the people that aren't sensitive, are bad things happening inside or not? The symptoms do not match the level of damage!
So, how do we learn to live life happily? Where is the tipping point? I'm tired of all the research into all the related illnesses and problems. Let's just get to the root of the matter. How do we eat safely and still have a meaningful life? Meaningful being a life full of interaction and participation with others whether it is family, friends or business. How do we find a way to function without brain fog, migraines, discomfort, etc.? I want a life without constant fear when eating three times a day! How do we accomplish that?
I would love the answers to these questions!
GF MOM, I hear you! The only days I have felt consistently fantastic are three days when I ate nothing but rice and organic fruits and vegetables. There is little joy in preparing and eating based on that diet plan! There was a period not long ago when I was eating hardly anything, because I was told that even otherwise very healthy things I wanted to eat (tomatoes, blueberries, cucumbers even) might be problematic and I just had no motivation to eat anymore. I sought the council of a nutritionist who went back to basics with me, first getting calorie count up however we could and eventually helping me to not be afraid of food any more. I have accomplished some of this through meditation and seeing myself as capable of knowing what my body needs. Ultimately, what joy is there in eating if we feel we are poisoning ourselves each time we put a morsel of food in our mouths? I agree with you that we need to find a way to trust again, and, at least in my experience, it seems to mostly require having faith in ourselves and our ability to make healthy food choices,
I agree with CH that we should be careful not to call any one company out without direct proof that a product is problematic. I get that people say a certain product makes them sick and why, of course, they would avoid the product from then on, but I also know that there are a million little things that can make us feel sick, including simply expecting something to make us feel sick. As consumers we do, while also holding these companies accountable, need to accept responsibility for our parts in this process. Our anecdotal evidence (how we feel and what we think may have triggered such a feeling – or, FAR more challenging, how our child feels and what we think may have triggered that feeling) is just that, anecdotal… even though it is our own experience, which we would trust more than any other evidence. What the companies who prepare foods for our population must consult is fact, science, and policy (as much as we consumers detest those terms). I hope we can learn to temper our frustration with a level of gratitude for what companies, perhaps like BRM, are trying to do for us. Without them, what options would we have (especially for kids for whom moving to a Paleo diet is a difficult leap)? Having said all of that, I truly appreciate you, Dude, and your efforts to continue these conversations that are so helpful, and like you I hope one day 'gluten-free' will always mean gluten-free.
I agree with many of the posts above. People get sick for any number of reasons and very often it isn't the gluten.
Maybe they need some of those 99% gluten-free labels you posted awhile back.
I saw some Bob's products in my local store in the UK and wondered. I am off grains except rice at the moment though, so not yet.
We are already 'blessed' with 20ppm regulation here. When I was eating processed gf foods I got sick quickly, but I don't know if it was the ingredients or possible cross contamination. I am still doing the mother of all elimination diets, and it would be months for me to test all the ingredients singley to bother and try something processed. Let alone work out cc.
I am sticking to wholefoods for now. Nothing with an ingredient list more than one thing, except my Parma ham, which has salt.
My greatest desire since being gluten free, and having a nut free child is simply the information to make up my own mind. I just spent 40 minutes trying to find out if an Easter egg he was given was ok.
Information, information, information
I suspect that their legal department wrote their response. I would have liked to have seen more along the lines of "we make every effort to prevent contamination," but their lawyers might not have allowed that.
Having been an analytical chemist a couple of careers ago, the assay that they use to determine the amount of gluten in a product has a minimum amount of gluten it can detect (the limit of detection). If there's more than the limit of detection (20 ppm), then the assay should find it.
If there's less than 20 ppm, however, the assay will be unable to find it. The only way to determine if there is gluten at a lower level is to use a more sensitive assay. Based on what I've read, the most sensitive assay that is commonly used has a limit of detection of only 5 ppm, and I'm sure it's more expensive.
Unfortunately, many of us may be more sensitive than that.
I posted on Facebook – I've only ever had a problem with one Bob's Red Mill product – their brownie mix. I'm perfectly comfortable with the rest as I don't react to it at all.
I wish the label "Gluten free" meant zero gluten, but in all practicality, I don't think its possible. I don't even think there's a test to measure 0 gluten, and even if there was some, we might still have stuff that has some gluten. If you have a bakery in your grocery store, the fruit department could easily have fruit that says it has gluten in it because of the airborne flour. At some point, we have to say – what's it worth to test all of this? Are we all willing to pay a lot of additional money for a specialty store to ensure everything is completely gluten free? I can tell you the answer to that one – all the specialty GF stores around me have closed. Only the health food stores and the grocery store are left.
What we need is an inexpensive test so that we can figure this out on our own, and have the market testing much more often. I test my blood sugar four times a day and it costs me $20/month with insurance. There should be a way for me to test my meal for gluten within the same price range (well, maybe up to my highest copay of $75. Restaurants could afford to test more than what little they are doing now, and we could hold them accountable to a standard of results – say that 20 ppm standard for calling a dish gluten free. ELISA tests are great, but at the price they are, they can only be reserved for the most special of occasions or the things you are absolutely dying to know about.
If we push for more testing options, something constructive could come out of all of us whining about the labeling laws (myself included….not on a high horse here). Its not like Congress would/could do anything about the laws right now…they can't even pass a budget for a whole year.
And this is why I'm done with pre-packaged mixes. I'll still use Bob's single grain gluten free flours, but the mixes have always made me sick – and there's a few others that do the same, actually only one brand doesn't and it's made with guar gum, I figured it out to be the xanthan gum, working on gum free flour mixes and if I can't figure it out it's nut free, egg free paleo (???hahaha seriously!!!) for me….good times….
I never buy any prepackaged gluten free baked goods and bake everything from scratch. I regularly use Bob's sorghum flour, millet flour, brown rice flour and tapioca starch without any problems. I used to buy the gluten-free oats and switched to another brand only because they were cheaper. Also buy the teff grain and occasionally multi-grain GF bread mix. Never ever had any problems with any other Bob's products. And I'm really sensitive.
I was going to write this same thing–almost verbatim–so I will just say
Same here!! (thanks, Else!)
No problems with BRM, except the ones that use garfava flour–I hate the "beany taste".
And there is no problem for celiacs using xanthan gum. There is no wheat gluten in it, but some people may find that too much of it in a recipe may give you bowel issues. It has a laxative effect.
oh yes, I forgot about the beany flour! We used to use it as our all purpose mix but after a few baking disasters (like beany chocolate molton cakes – yuck!) we prefer to make our own mixes.
I've had to eliminate some grains, seeds, and even coffee because of cross-reactivity with gluten.
Just when you conquer gluten, then there's more
I havea printout of the chart taped inside a cabinet door so I won't forget which ones I have identified and eliminated.
People respond to different foods for a variety of reasons. Who knows exactly why one person may respond to a food (or a product) and another doesn't. In general, I avoid baked goods and processed food. I wouldn't call it a specific diet (like Paleo, etc.), it's simply my lifestyle (plant-heavy, seeds, nuts, brown rice and GF oats on occasion, a small amount of meat (very picky about the sources), very little dairy or sugar, and so on). If you choose foods that have no label, there's less to worry about. Finding what works for you is definitely a process.
If you want to eat these sorts of foods, consider joining GlutenFreeWatchdog. Products are tested to 5 ppm, and the more people that join, the more tests can be done. I also have some home test kits I use occasionally. They test to 5ppm. This is the level that works for our GF eaters! Some certified to 10ppm (GIG certification) seem to work too.
When I was diagnosed with celiac- last summer, I started buying flowers most of the time from Bob's Red Mill. Till now I don;t feel better,even though in my house there is no gluten at all. Now I start wondering if it is because of BRM products? I am being tested for other food allergies at the moment as well. Waiting for results. But since my diet is already quite complicated – I am vegan, gluten free girl- I will cry my eyes off if some other foods come to my forbidden list. I-just like Gluten Dude- wish that label "Gluten Free" meant it is 100% Gluten Free. I hate pick up package of food that says Gluten Free,but on the back you read "Produced in the facility that handles wheat, gluten.." Or that it may have less than 20mmp of gluten. I just want to buy food that is safe and tasty. Is it so much to ask? I want to be healthy!
hate to tell you this Adalinka, but you will not get better being vegan. I know I am pushing a lot of buttons, but my patients who are vegan and have food allergies only develope more and more food allergies. they also do not get rid of the allergies with allergy treatment. I think it is because vegans lack cholesterol and B vitamins. maybe iron too. cholesterol protects your immune system. you need more of it.
I have not had a problem with Bob's Red Mill (i've been eating their new muesli, and it is fantastic). That being said, I don't use a lot of mixes. I do use their single flours. And I am pretty sensitive to gluten.
That being said, I only use their flours that say "gluten free". Otherwise I use Arrowhead Mills. Speaking of gluten-free flours, does anyone have a source for sweet rice flour?
I use Nuts.com (certified GF)
Shipping charges are high, however, but their GF selection is HUGE–
and everything is fresh and delicious.
Good stuff , IMHO
Cheers, IH
Had been using Bob's since my daughter was first diagnosed about ten years ago. (That and Mrs. Robin's – for those who remember her.) I used to pour through Bob's catalog and was so happy to have found a company that had so many gluten-free choices for us.
But lately, I just don't know. Maybe it's that we as a family have become much more sensitive to gluten. We suspected the flour. Didn't want it to be that. Really, really didn't, but I stopped using Bob's flours and we're all feeling good again.
For some 20ppm might be okay. For us it's not.
I once found their brownie mix on sale and decided to give it a try. I thought I might have had some cross contamination somewhere (I live with my boyfriend who is sweet but not careful) because after each one I had to hall ass to the ladies room. About a month later my mom sent me a gift set, brownie mix included. I really wanted something sweet so I made the brownies and was very careful…I got sick after just one. I honestly thought it was something I ate earlier, still new at this. Nope. The rest of the gift set is still unopened. Sorry, mom!
100% AGREE! There is nothing more infuriating than seeing a product that says gluten free on the label but on the back in tiny print says "may contain gluten" or " is processed in a facility that also processes wheat"..UM hello that is not gluten free and not safe for celiacs or those who are gltuen intolerant! Why do they even bother making GF products celiacs and gluten intolerant people can't eat- what is the point??? I have to wonder who their intended client base is then? How much money I have wasted in the early days on such products only to get sick for 2 weeks after eating it. UGG!- live and learn..
On Bob's Red Mill- We can't eat any of their stuff- we have gotten sick every time we tried any of their poducts- which really ticks me off because they are the only brand that is readily available in every grocery store and is also reasonably priced ..but oh well…
Sorry, but I have to say it one more time…Bob's Red Mill CERTIFIED GF products..never bother me… I eat those oats every single day in a granola bar I make for the hubs and me …..and if any trace gluten were involved…I'd be dead by now
IMHO, of course. To each his/her own.
The testing regime here in Australia is much more stringent requiring 0 parts per million to qualify for the gluten free label. if you want to buy Bob's products, do it through bioliving.com.au
The only products available are those that register no gluten through the tests.
I'm happy to hear this, but at the same time a bit troubled by it. Why can't we get completely gluten-free Bob's Red Mill Products here in the US? I love so much about this company, but I really think they could go one step further with their gluten-free line. We had do stop using many of their products but would use them again if they had 0 parts per million.
I'd never heard about this before. Thanks for sharing.
Interesting……this bio something company in Australia has a way to test for 0 gluten…..wonder why no one else in the world has it? Maybe because there is no test for 0 gluten?
And just a reminder….if something tests for 5 parts per million or less…it could be 0 or 1 or 2….. it does not mean it has any. It's just a limitation of the way these tests work.
Thanks, Lima bean.
I keep trying to say this on GDude's site, but maybe if someone else points it out too, it will help to clarify it further.
I'm Canadian and thought your Canadian audience might be interested to know of this recent recall by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) of a Bob's Red Mill product due to undeclared gluten (link below). I don't know what BRM's track record is like on this score overall but the variety of comments your audience has submitted suggests this might have occurred before.
In case your Canadian audience is unaware, they can click on the link on this page marked "Stay Connected" for information on how to subscribe free via email to such CFIA advisories. Presumably folks outside Canada can also subscribe but obviously the advisories only apply to goods sold within our borders.
I've been subscribed for several months and get emails almost daily (about ALL types of food recalls, not just GF mishaps, but you can select which types you want to receive). Generally the foods in question have already been removed from retailers and restaurants by the time the emails go out but might have already made their way into people's kitchens before this so it does provide a useful service — to Canadians at least; presumably this service has an American counterpart.
I recently went totally grain free (not quite Paleo) because I suspected I was reacting to certain grains. I felt great for that week. I was particularly relieved that my brain fog was lifting! Hurray!
Then I made some almond flour "Paleo" muffins with Bob's Red Mill products. This week I've been struggling with brain fog, fatigue, and a gluten rash. Always takes me a few days to realize my symptoms are "glutened" symptoms, probably because of the fog.
I'm going to leave the muffins alone and report back how I feel in a few days.
PS: I enjoy the blog. It's good to "yeah me too!" with other Celiac's. Need support trying to solve this crazy puzzle.
Hi everyone !
I wondered if any of you knew a mill that is certified gluten free… (other than Bob's)…
thanks =)
I reacted to their almond meal with the typical glutened rash on my face on either side of my lips/chin. Very very itchy!
I feel my best on meat, vegs, and small amount of fruits. It sure makes life hard though when everyone else around you is enjoying all the "typical" foods and desserts.
When I first started a 'gluten-free' diet, I made a batch of coconut cookies using their baking soda. The following day, I woke up very ill and had what felt like tonsilitis. For years, doctors thought I was getting tonsilitis when it was infact a very inflamed and swollen uvula which also made me feel incredibly exhausted and barely able to function (on top of other health issues). I can't remember if I emailed Bob's at the time but I think their baking soda contains corn. Happy to say I've had no throat problems for almost a year since avoiding all grains, even the so called gluten free ones. I believe I have Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity.
When I eat more than a serving of biscuits, cookies, or cake thorough out the day, then the next morning I notice a reaction. I feel better without any grains, but I am hungrier and not always satisfied. I haven't given up Bob Mill's flours yet, but if I can't eat them in moderation I may have to.
I've never had problems with BRM in the past, but lately whenever I use mixes that aren't certified gf I get symptoms … same thing this week with the biscuit and baking mix. Sigh.
I made meatballs the other day with Bob's gluten free oats in them. I got sick. It was definitely the meatballs and definitely the oats, because I had the oats separately and got sick as well. I also had the meatballs on a gf hero roll and with brown rice pasta, which I eat often with no reaction. Maybe it's just that it's oats, but I'm disappointed.
Just curious, Ken, have you tried any other types of GF oats without getting sick? I've noticed on BRM oats packaging that it mentions some celiacs cannot tolerate even the purest oats (i.e., as free as humanly possible from wheat contamination). I'm reading through Peter Green's book lately where he claims something like 2% of all celiacs cannot tolerate any kind of oats whatsoever.
I have the opposite problem (for lack of a better word) in that I don't experience any digestive symptoms from being glutened (or at least I didn't before the GI told me last year I had to to give it up, and I haven't dared to cheat since). While I certainly don't envy anyone with gluten sickness, being digestively asymptomatic means some foods might be causing myself damage without my body giving me any message (pain) about it.
I'm starting to think that there could be many unDXed asymptomatic celiacs out there who don't know the harm they've done to themselves, until getting DXed later on with something even more serious.
This is the first time since before I was diagnosed, and the last. In a way, I envy your lack of symptoms, but only because right now I can live without the headache, mood swings and same raging pain in my gut that first led me to get diagnosed last year. But yeah, I guess knowing when I get glutened is better than not knowing.
First I want to respond to the oats comment. First, just because you had a reaction to oats does not mean they are not gluten free. Oats have similar proteins as wheat. Gluten free can still make you ill.
Second, I made waffles a few weeks ago with Bob's gluten free all purpose flour…. I became very ill…. I heard so many good things about Bobs. I am very disappointed…. Now that Jules has gone out of business I don't know what to do.
Stephanie, there's a light at the end of that tunnel. http://glutendude.com/celiac-awareness/when-bad-things-happen-to-good-celiacs/
May I just interject here for a second? I am not doubting any of your symptoms…not at all.
Yet, I would like to point out that the book Real Life with Celiac Disease by Melinda Dennis, RD and Daniel Leffler, MD– who both work with celiac patients in Boston– have a chapter devoted specifically to oats. (chapter 21) Its written by Tricia Thompson, RD who is a watchdog for gluten and a highly respected celiac nutritionist.
They include Bob's Red Mill in the five major producers of gluten free oats in North America (see page 156)
I do not think they would suggest this company if they felt it was
a hazard to a celiac's health.
Maybe you are just intolerant to oats –which is entirely possible especially if you are less than 2 years healing your gut.
Give it some time and try again later.
It's not because of gluten.
also, meant to link for you to the Univ of Chicago Celiac Research Center
Q Do oats contain gluten?
!A: A large body of scientific evidence accumulated over more than 15 years has proven that oats are completely safe for the vast majority of celiac patients. Oats are not related to gluten-containing grains such as wheat, barley and rye. They don't contain gluten, but rather proteins called avenins that are non-toxic and tolerated by most celiacs (perhaps less than 1% of celiac patients show a reaction to a large amount of oats in their diets).
Oats can be in a celiac's diet provided they are selected from sources that guarantee a lack of contamination by wheat, rye or barley.
Some who add oats to their diet may experience GI symptoms. This may actually be a result of the increased fiber that oats provide instead of a reaction to the oats themselves.
Hope this helps!
Bobs Red Mill xantham gum is derived from wheat. All of their mixes have the xanthem gum in them. It makes my celiac family very ill, and yes i know it to be only Bobs red mill xanthem gum. I have done vast experiments on my family to see what was still causing them to be sick. I live near Bobs and have personally spoken to them about this problem, and pleaded with them to change their source. They told me that many people allergic to corn are happy tabour their xanthem gum. I said that was great but we are dealing with gluten, not corn. I told them that they are making people very sick labeling these products gluten free, without disclosing that the source of their xanthem gum is wheat. They argued that they test, blah blah blah. I am making it a personal crusade to get them to change this. Even though my family stays away from it, many people still make foods and feed it to them unsuspecting because it is labeled g.f. Please help me in contacting Bobs about this issue, maybe with more voices we will be heard. Thank you, Heidi
oh and my family too cannot have oats, mimics the same symptoms of gluten. and yes even G.F oats.
Wow! This is a very useful page and I really enjoyed reading article and all users' comments. Buy Gluten free flour and Wheat free flour at our online store at reasonable prices. Thank you for sharing valuable information.
I am gluten free and also am a naturopathic doctor. I do believe that Bob's Red Mill Products are safe. Many patients who are celiac think they got "glutened" when they ate something that was not homemade. It usually turns out that they are sensitive to more than just gluten. Here are some things that my patients have tested sensitive to IN ADDITION to gluten: xanthan gum, other gums, sorghum, arrowroot, corn starch,citric acid, dried beans (Bob's Red Mill often uses garbanzo beans in their mixes), baking soda, almonds, bananas etc. etc.
the problem is that when people go gluten free, they feel sooooo much better! but if there is still some level of inflammation from something (a parasitic infection, candida overgrowth, another food allergy) then they will start noticing the ill effects of other foods they start consuming in larger quantities than before. In addition, many women have endometriosis, whose symptoms can mirror gettine "glutened". One patient had giardia and kept thinking she was gettting gluten cross contamination.
If you dont' fix the leaky gut, you won't get over your digestive symptoms. and if you haven't been tested for absolutely EVERYTHING you are eating, you likely do not know about your lesser allergies. In addition, there are other diseases that can cause abdominal pain and diarrhea.

lesson plans + resources
sooooooo this year is my first year teaching and i'm teaching freshman and sophomore english as well as either junior or eighth grade english. i'm obviously getting some resources from my district and also have access to CSCOPE, but i was wondering where else you guys look for resources to supplement my teaching.

Creamy Braided Bread
Gosh! When was the last time I baked a bread? It was so long ago that I felt a bit guilty of under-using my bread machine. That's the first reason. Second reason, the pack of bread flour is expiring soon. Third and most important, I'm so addicted to Grace Kitchen Corner's blog these days. I admit that I have been reading this blog for quite long but got addicted to it only recently, hehe! I'm so impressed by her breads and chiffon cakes especially as they look professionally good! Have been reading through her previous posts and found more reasons to bake some fresh breads. ;)
So here's the Creamy Braided Bread. This bread dough is extremely easy to handle. No sticking to my hands at all and very easy to plait them. But I'm not sure if it's the high fat content in the whipping cream or due to the hot weather that cause the dough to be a bit greasy. It was like "sweating with oil" during proofing!
But I hope it does not stop you from baking this. It's really soft and buttery and taste wonderful. The crumble topping is excellent, except a little sweet for me. I also have extra crumble topping left as I'm only able to use up half to cover up the bread. I will reduce the crumble topping ingredients if I try it next time.

I agree Kitchen's Corner's recipes esp bread is so tempting. Right Now I'm proofing a milky wholemeal bread, recipe from her blog! :)ReplyDelete
Hi SSB, the bread looks beautiful and soft. I planned to make bread too, maybe i will try thisReplyDelete
Beautiful bread you've got there! I love the crumble too! I also have extra crumble everytime I make this bread. You could use the crumble to top on any muffins before sending your muffins into the oven. That's very yummy! Yes, as the dough content high in fat that cause it a bit greasy but don't worry as that make the bread super soft and yummy! Thanks for your support!ReplyDelete
Looks really cute braided like this. Love the crumble toppings on top too =DReplyDelete
Hi Aimei, yes I'm going to try her other recipes too. :)ReplyDelete
Hi Fanny, hope to see your homemade bread soon. :)
Hi Grace, thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe! Hey, I'm trying out your other bread recipes. All look so tempting. :)
Hi wiffy, thanks too!

Call of Duty is one of my favorite game series ever. It is an incredible first person shooter experience with incomparable online multiplayer and unforgettable stories. Their latest installment to the series Black Ops is no disappointment in my collection. I decided for this game I was going to go all out and purchase the Prestige Edition for my PS3. It included an awesome remote control "RC-XD Bomb car" directly from the game that transmits color video and audio to the remote, a Black Ops medal in a case, a collectable cell and the game in a metal case as well as an avatar costume for PS Home. I haven't played the campaign all the way as I have spent most of the week on my favorite part, the multiplayer. That is what I am going to focus on in this post.
Immediately after sliding the disc into my PS3 I gravitated to the multiplayer section where I engaged in a friendly game of free-for-all. Ok let me say the obvious, this multiplayer is a lot like the multiplayer on Halo Reach, it has a mini map of the world with lit up areas people are playing on, little notes about the game streaming on the bottom and most importantly a credit system for buying upgrades. On reach you can upgrade your armor but on here you have to unlock weapon, perks and the like and then save credits to buy them. At first I didn't like this system at all, I thought if I unlocked it I shouldn't have to pay or if I have to pay I shouldn't have to wait to unlock, but now the system seems to flow nicely, especially since I have unlocked and bought the gun and combination that I like. The gameplay online is very nice, it does have times of horrible lag and load times however most of the time it went smoothly. Again like halo you get the option of 2 maps or random and you can vote along with fellow players, I liked this system a lot.
Finally on Call of Duty online there is split screen multiplayer! Yes you can now play with your friends on the same screen online, however they have to piggy back on your account as they cannot sign in with their own account like they can on Xbox 360. I have lost sleep playing multiplayer.
ZOMBIEEZZZ!!! Are back again on Black Ops after going missing on Modern Warfare 2 and they are coming back strong. There are new maps including one where you can play as JFK, Castro and Nixon in the pentagon. Zombies never get old on Call of Duty. The campaign is just as epic as ever making you feel like you are right in it. I remember the first thing I noticed about this game is the aiming and shooting system of the guns. It is much more realistic, I mean there is kickback now like in real life which makes aiming more difficult which is actually an improvement. The new killstreaks online are fun like the RC-XD bomb car which you get after 3 kills.
I highly recommend Call of Duty Black Ops to a user of any system from a PS3 to a PC. If you want to play online on a PS3 with me my account name for PSN is: theneo739
I hope you enjoyed my thoughts on Call of Duty Black Ops, feel free to email me at email@example.com

Saw this at PCMag.com. Would they be considering this if Steve Jobs was still around? Would you consider buying a smaller iPad?
The first rumors surfaced months ago, and now a new report adds fuel to the speculation that Apple is planning to release a new tablet with a significantly smaller screen.
With just weeks to go before the supposed March 7 announcement of a new iPad, the Wall Street Journal claims to have a source who confirms that Apple has been testing a new, smaller screen for its line of tablets.
A separate Journal story, meanwhile, suggests that the next iPad will have 4G LTE capabilities.
Citing "people familiar with the situation," the report claims that in addition to testing out smaller tablet screens with Asian suppliers, Apple has actually shown off the overall design of the smaller, 8-inch tablet to a several of its manufacturing parters. Back in December there were reports that Apple had purchased 7.85-inch panels from LG Display and AU Optronics.
The late Steve Jobs is well-known for his statements deriding the notion of a smaller tablet. Has the successful launch of Amazon's 7-inch Kindle Fire caused Apple to rethink this position?

You don't want to mess with this guy's DIY laser gatling gun
Patrick Priebe, the guy who made the custom Iron Man gauntlet and is no stranger to laser props, is back and this time he's built himself a laser gatling gun. And just like last time, Priebe still has a thing against balloons.
Built as a one off prototype, Priebe's laser gatling gun is crafted from aluminum and uses six blue Arctic laser modules as his ammo of choice. Priebe also included a 100mW Krypton laser to help with aiming. The result, as you can see in the video below is pretty spectacular, and kind of scary.
Luckily, Priebe's not selling the "weapon" and ha no plans to show anyone how to make their own.
Take a look at the video below to see Priebe "murder" a rack of balloons.

FIGURE C-2 Pictorial representation of potential action of gut peptides on the hypothalamus. Access circulating agents into the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus is facilitated by a relaxed blood-brain barrier. Primary neurons in the arcuate nucleus contain multiple peptide neuromodulators. Appetite-inhibiting neurons (red) contain pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) peptides such as α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (αMSH), which acts on melanocortin receptors (MC3 and MC4) and cocaine- and amphetamine-stimulated transcript peptide (CART), whose receptor is unknown. Appetite-stimulating neurons in the arcuate nucleus (green) contain neuropeptide Y (NPY), which acts on Y receptors (Y1 and Y5), and agouti-related peptide (AgRP), which is an antagonist of MC3/4 receptor activity. Integration of peripheral signals within the brain involves interplay between the hypothalamus and hindbrain structures including the NTS, which receives vagal afferent inputs. Inputs from the cortex, amygdala, and brainstem nuclei are integrated as well, with resultant effects on meal size and frequency, gut handling of ingested food, and energy expenditure. →, direct stimulatory; , direct inhibitory; , indirect pathways.

After being advised by the team's medical staff to limit the 30 year old Amare Stoudemire to 10 minutes per game this season, the Knicks, to no one's surprise, have taken a very cautious approach when it comes to Stoudemire's playing time early in the year.
Stoudemire did not play in the Knicks home opener against the Milwaukee Bucks last week. The 30 year old Stoudemire, who has undergone three separate knee procedures over the past twelve months, saw his first game action during last Thursday night's game against the Bulls, where he came off the bench for Mike Woodson, playing 11 minutes.
After sitting out again on Sunday versus the Minnessota Timberwolves, the New York Knicks announced today that Stoudemire would be in the lineup on Tuesday as the Knicks face off against the Charlotte Bobcats for the first time this season.
Considering the ticking time bombs that are Amare's knees this is the aprproach that Knicks fans will have to get accustomed to this season as head coach Mike Woodson has already said that he will rotate between using Amare Stoudemire and Kenyon Martin when the Knicks play back-to-back games this season.
Although Woodson has not confirmed the strategy, the coach has also considered alternating Martin and Stoudemire on a per game basis this year, in an effort to keep the two veterans healthy throughout a long NBA season.
While in theory this seems like a sound plan there is something to be said for chemistry when it comes to NBA basketball, and for anyone who has watched the Knicks first three games this season, chemistry, is not what you have witnessed.
Hopefully Knicks head coach Mike Woodson can figure out his rotation sooner rather than later, but with J.R. Smith still serving the last 2 games of his 5 game suspension, and Stoudemire and Martin on severe minutes restrictions, it seems like it may take some time for things to come together.
When asked by reporters about the difficulty of managing Stoudemire and Martins minutes, the Knicks head coach sounded eager to just make it through the early season restrictions:
"They're both going to get a schedule for the rest of the month in terms of how it's going to play out," Woodson said before Sunday's game. "When there's a couple of days in between, I have the right to play both of them."
"Sure, it's tough for both of them," Woodson said of Martin and Stoudemire. "My hands are tied too. When the medical people release these guys and say that their minutes are ready to go up then I'll be the first one to give them more minutes. But right now I can't do it."
Stoudemire has told reporters how difficult it is to get into a rhythm when playing so sporadically, although the veteran power forward understand the need for caution.
During his season debut against the Chicago Bulls Amare had five points on 2-for-3 shooting in 11 minutes.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Trust me, this list has done wonders for me thus far in trying to get my point across that Cena is one of the greatest workers in the business today, and has been for quite some time (Well, that's a fact to most other than wannabe "smarks" who clamor for the attitude era and then bitch about workrate
). This is coming from a guy that from 05-11 was screaming "CENA SUCKS, FIVE MOOVZ OF DOOM OMGZ" and was bitching about just about everything in wrestling.
Every person who does that is essentially getting worked by the E' anyways, so I believe that an individual who does that is still in some sense of the word...A mark. It wasn't until The Miz beat Cena at Wrestlemania (Was cheering for the Miz) that I looked back and said "Wait....I was just cheering for one of the worst main event workers ever" and then Cena worked in some of my favourite matches ever later that year, and the rest is history. Love the guy now, it's just when you begin to look at individuals like Cena objectively, I find the results to be overwhelming.
Gonna throw out 50-41 in a few hours , which features a triple threat, a leg removing good time, a Wrestlemania main event, a man with 3 faces, and much more :hhh
"He's not the biggest. He was never the strongest. He was never the fastest. He was overlooked. He went in the sixth round. So with that being said, all of the intangibles that a quarterback is supposed to have, they overlooked it with him because it was burning from inside of him" - Ray Lewis on Tom Brady

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Excellent teachers, great parents and a wonderful place for kids to learn! Our kids thoroughly enjoy this school.
The teachers at Helen Baller are great. They are very involved with their students and really take an interest in helping them learn. There is A LOT of parent involvement and there are lots of community activities. Our kids are sad during breaks and look forward to returning.
I love the teachers and principal and fun activities. However, there is not much homework at all to reinforce what the kids learned at school. My kid asks me to create her own homework at home.
This is a small town school. I love it. From the teachers to the principal. From the Playgrounds to the new Jack, Will, and Rob center. From the parents to each and every child. This is reall the best elementary school around by far.
Foundation poor, program rich. They keep the kids busy with lots and lots of extracurricular activities. Excellent help in reading and math. Great for overall self-esteem. My kids have the most caring teachers on the planet!
This small school has a very neighborhood feel. The parental involvement is amazing. The PTA is very active and welcomes any level of participation which you feel comfortable with. The teachers all welcome parent helpers and work to fit a time into your schedule. Parents are encouraged to spend extra time with their kids in the school setting - having lunch with your child for example. There are some great extracurricular activities/teams to get involved in - jump rope team, tumbling team, juggling team, chess team, student produced television program, student patrol (crosswalk guards). The teachers are constantly finding new ways to challenge our kids! The principal knows all the kids by name and expends effort to help each child feel connected and important.
