It appears a Wisconsin-LSU football series is getting closer to reality.
LSU's athletic director Joe Alleva said right now the working plan is for the Badgers and Tigers to play next years' season opener at Houston's Reliant Stadium.
LSU would travel to Wisconsin to play the Badgers at Lambeau Field, probably in 2017.

A few days ago, I interviewed my friend Sam Ruot who came to Phoenix as a refugee from South Sudan in 2001. I wanted to learn about education in his home country, and I learned that addressing education in many of the places FH works means addressing other critical issues at the same time. Sam […]

Meeting needs with mushrooms
Hey, all you trendy urban gardeners! Do you know how easy it is to grow mushrooms? Maybe you do.

Mushroom growing is on the schedule for Tuesdays and Thursdays. Every […]

One last look at 2010
Here's just a quick snapshot for all you numbers people…. God showed his might in many ways in 2010, and we look forward to seeing what he has in store next. Happy New Year! Visit Poverty 180 to join this work in one of four areas: Education, Water, HIV/AIDS, Gender-based injustice.
What it's like to fight for clean water
I mentioned in the last blog post how FH works in some pretty harsh places — harsh especially when it comes to finding a steady source of clean water. Even for expert scientists and engineers, an endeavor like this can be messy, laborious and frustrating. In September, our friends at charity:water celebrated their fourth birthday. They've installed more than […]

In Haiti, what does the earthquake have to do with HIV/AIDS?
The quake that rocked Haiti at the beginning of this year was beyond devastating, instantly.

Clean water? Just poke a hole in the ground, and it'll gush out, right?

This story is for you if...
• You don't hit your approach shots close enough for a one-putt.
• You almost always three-putt outside of 30 feet.
The Situation
Most of your approach shots land farther than 30 feet from the pin. You're three-putting like crazy because you can't get the speed right.
The Solution
Hit the practice green and find a nice flat spot (you don't need a hole). Settle into your stance and follow these steps:
Step 1
Take the putterhead back to your right toe using your normal tempo and rhythm, and then strike the putt as you normally would. Once the ball stops rolling, walk off the distance (it should be about 18 to 20 feet).

Brisbane Dive Academy7 reviews
Welcome to Brisbane Dive Academy located just 20min from the heart of the Brisbane CBD and just 10 min from beautiful Moreton Bay.
Bicheno Dive Centre0 reviews
For the divers who have been to Bicheno (pronounced "bish-eno"), and have fond memories of some of the older dives (Golden Bommies, The Castle, Bird Rock, Muirs Rock to name just a few) there are many more being discovered by visiting divers on exploratory trips. Have you heard of "Guinea Pig"? No! It is a towering granite boulder just 1.5 metres below the surface down to 30 metres with swim thru's surrounding the base. The only thing wrong with this dive is you will have to move all the fish away to see the sponges and sea whips in their full splendor.

If you already have your certificate we offer some great diving for newly certified divers and for experienced divers. Colourful coral gardens teeming with life, playful wrasses and frequent sightings of dolphins and whales on the way home, that's the kind of day you can expect diving on either Calypso or Pure Dive diving on the edge of the outer Barrier Reef. The dedicated diving boat Pure Dive visits remote and pristine northern reefs and ribbon reefs 3 times a week.
Cairns Seastar Reef Cruises1 reviews
For the experienced diver there are the "3 Sisters", 3 magnificent coral heads sitting out on the edge of this reef in 18 metres of water. Recent restrictions imposed at Michaelmas Cay, now means many boats can no longer access this area and what was a very popular dive site is at present seldom used. Seastar is one of a handful that can still visit here. This is a well liked dive it offers deep water, picturesque and interesting coral formations and being on the edge the possibility of seeing large turtles, manta rays or even a reef shark close by.
Calypso Adventures1 reviews
The dive locations we go to have been surveyed to show that they are made up of 80% hard coral cover compared to 40% in similar areas on the Great Barrier Reef. Each dive is different our resident marine life are the Napoleon Maori Wrasse, White Tip Reef Sharks, Hawksbill Turtle, Green Turtles, Blue Spotted Sting Rays, Sweet Lips, Star Fish, Anemone Fish (Home of Nemo!) Nudi Branches, Angel Fish, Huge Groupers, Giant Puffer Fish and loads more!

World map of social networks shows Facebook is king
So what does your country's preffered social network say about it? Not sure, but apparently not everyone has given into Mark Zuckerberg's empire.
Vincenzo Consenza, an italian digital PR guy, created a series of social maps showing how the social networking world has evolved since June of 2009 based on Google Trends and Alexa
As expected, Facebook continued to grow, having pulled Peru and India from another social network, while overtaking other pockets of resistance in Africa and Europe.
The world is not competeley blue though. Facebook is blocked in China and Iran, so the Chinese flock to QZone and Iranians to Cloob, two government controlled social networks.
It seems like only Russian, Japanese and Brazilian populations have freely resisted the Facebook rule, opting instead for their own homegrown social networks.

text: Manufacturing Hiring Hits Weakest Levels in Four Years Print article Send a Tip by Wynton Hall 1 Jul 2013 post a comment In June, U.S. manufacturing hiring hit the weakest levels in almost four years. "Unfortunately on the employment side, they are not hiring," President of Naroff Economic Advisors Joel Naroff told Reuters. "That's not a good sign. The employment issue is key. If those jobs are not there, you are not going to get consumer demand." The Institute for Supply Management's (ISM) index showed manufacturing production grew modestly, but employment fell to the lowest level since September 2009—further evidence of the much-discussion jobless recovery. In May, U.S. manufacturing hit a wall that surprised analysts, contracting to its lowest output levels in four years.

A search warrant says the Roanoke man charged in connection with a pipe bomb explosion in Blacksburg was feuding with his girlfriend's male houseguest.
Derick Gregory Wilson was charged Wednesday with the manufacture, possession, use of fire bombs or explosive materials. The improvised explosive device exploded early Wednesday near several vehicles parked behind an apartment complex in Blacksburg. No one was injured. One vehicle was damaged.
The Roanoke Times reports (http://bit.ly/N3NB93 ) that court records show that Wilson had been dating a woman in Blacksburg who recently allowed an ex-boyfriend to stay with her until a new apartment lease became active. According to the warrant, Wilson and the ex-boyfriend had verbal arguments and physical altercations.
Wilson is being held without bond in the Roanoke City Jail.

"Well, it all comes to this, there's no use trying to live in other people's opinions. The only thing to do is to live in your own. After all, I believe in myself. I'm not so bad and silly as they think me, and I'm not consumptive, and I can write. Now that I've written it all out I feel differently about it. The only thing that still aggravates me is that Miss Potter pitied me--pitied by a Potter!
"I looked out of my window just now and saw Cousin Jimmy's nasturtium bed--and suddenly the flash came--and Miss Potter and her pity, and her malicious tongue seemed to matter not at all. Nasturtiums, who coloured you, you wonderful, glowing things? You must have been fashioned out of summer sunsets.
"I help Cousin Jimmy a great deal with his garden this summer. I think I love it as much as he does. Every day we make new discoveries of bud and bloom.
"So Aunt Elizabeth won't send me to Shrewsbury! Oh, I feel as disappointed as if I'd really hoped she would. Every door in life seems shut to me.
"Still, after all, I've lots to be thankful for. Aunt Elizabeth will let me go to school another year here, I think, and Mr. Carpenter can teach me heaps yet; I'm not hideous; moonlight is still a fair thing; I'm going to do something with my pen some day--and I've got a lovely, grey, moon-faced cat who has just jumped up on my table and poked my pen with his nose as a signal that I've written enough for one sitting.

MUMBAI, India (AP) -- For some young movie stars from India, their first plane trip will take them to the Oscars.
Director Danny Boyle confirms that the child stars of "Slumdog Millionaire" are being flown from India to Los Angeles for Sunday's Academy Awards ceremony.
The rags-to-riches story, set in the slums of Mumbai, is up for 10 Oscars, including one for best picture.
All nine actors who play the three main characters in three stages of their lives will attend. They include a 10-year-old boy and a 9-year-old girl who've never been on a plane, and have never been out of the country.
The film's producer says it was a scramble to get visas and passports for the two youngest stars, whose parents didn't decide until the last minute that they wanted their kids to attend.

ASIA/PHILIPPINES - New enthusiasm for the mission in the Year of grace 2012, between proclamation and solidarity
Manila (Agenzia Fides) - The year 2012 will be "a year of grace for the mission" in the Philippines: the Episcopal Conference has in fact declared it the "Year of the Pontifical Mission Societies" (POM), a period that will be marked by a renewed enthusiasm for the proclamation of the Gospel and the Christian witness, which is expressed in love for ones neighbor, especially the poor and needy. The proclamation of the Good News and solidarity are two key words in the Year of the PMS, in a country which is affected by the terrible social consequences of natural disasters such as the typhoon Sendong (or Washi) in Mindanao.
As reported to Fides by Fr. Socrates Mesiona MSP, National Director of the PMS in the Philippines, the Bishops have issued an apostolic exhortation stating officially the Year of the PMS, and states that, through a wide range of activities (prayer in communities, workshops and seminars, mission activities in schools, mission initiatives at home and abroad), means "to awaken among the Filipinos a dynamic and effective commitment to the preaching of the Good News of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth".
Fr. Mesiona tells Fides that "the declaration of the Bishops is a recognition of the important role of the PMS in raising awareness and missionary commitment of every believer".
Central Event of the Year of the PMS will be a "Mission Festival" to be held in April 2012 in Marikina City, with the idea of awakening in all parts of the Filipino Catholic community, "the zeal and love for the mission ". In addition, a Mass for the Year of the PMS which will be held in July 2012 at the Shrine of St. Therese of the Child Jesus in Pasay City to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the death of the Venerable Pauline Marie Jaricot, founder of the Pontifical Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

Practical Science on Movement and Pain
Practical Science on Movement and Pain
I love it. Classification systems like this intrique me to no end. I can think of so many examples of my clients who fit this and use their tendnancies to a pathological extreme.
Interesting article – movement style as relating to body type and muscular propensity. Are you aware of the work of Rudolf Laban? His research into the dynamics of movement (or Effort as he calls it) would throw another lens on your observations. The inner attitudes of the mover towards weight/space/time/flow crystalize in outer movement, and can be less reliant on the materiality of the body, as it is the inner intention/attention/decision making processes that are revealed in the movement. That said, in Laban Movement Analysis we also look at the notion of passive/limp/active weight, and I hadn't thought as much about different body types in this way in relation to activation of weight, and then the value systems in a particular activity (for example, dance or rugby).
Another good one, Todd. Having motor options is a valuable tool in anyone's movement arsenal. The passive v. Active, like the yin and yang of movement expression, can provide a new framework for either more sustainable/enjoyable movement or provide more power to a passive strategy when appropriate. What about also hybridizing the two? Those with a visceral understanding of passive movement utilizing active "boosters" to increase the crack of the whip. Seems as though the best athletes have a mix of both: clever and efficient use of passive elasticity with well-placed power (I.e.-Bruce lee?).
It is cool that you classify and simplify these styles and you are on point about the one style needing more of the others in athletic endeavors. What strategies do you use to employ to create fascial, neural and muscular balance? Pic n'choose little this and that? I use the integrated techniques of Aston Kinetics to get all three types at the same time!
Thanks for the post! I'm really enjoying catching up with all your previous work.
I read the latest last night (Australian time) but was too tired to reply. Now I find your last comment is more or less what i wanted to say!
I've been intensely interested in horse riding for the last 20 years or so, have done quite a lot of Feldenkrais, AND have been managing a dodgy back and a hip that has recently been replaced.
As someone who was reasonably "fit"and active, I was quite surprised to find a lot of muscle weakness as i went through rehab. It's taken me more than 4 months to feel almost "normal".
I put it down to the fact that i limped quite badly for 3/4 years before the op, so both muscles and neurals needed to rebalance. But I also think that my previous movement habits had something to do with it: too much Feldenkrais (is that possible?!) and not enough coming up against the "real world" of muscular effort. PLUS i'm tall and long limbed (tho quite tight, i think); your post would suggest this would also contribute to my lack of familiarity with "enough" use of my muscular system.
Great article! I especially like the clear explanation of how over use of the passive system can feel easier in the short term, but have negative consequences over a longer time period. This explains many of my clients' strategies. Thanks!
John Tarr
I think this is a great article. Of course, Panjabi and others are very concerned with this in relation to instability in the lumbar and cervical spine. You can see the interplay of this particularly in folks with some sort of pathology. For instance, a person with neck pain may have decreased thoracic extension. Therefore, due to this passive restraint they "rob Peter to pay Paul" and allow for increased mobility in the cervical spine. At this point, the length-tension relationships of muscle-tendon units (active) do not allow for proper firing (neural control) of deep cervical neck flexors/extensors. There is increased stretch on the anterior structures and shortening of the posterior structures. Furthermore the joint facets (passive) are being bombarded by increased stress. Physiologically, this leads to facet joint sclerosis, osteophyte encroachment,hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum, etc. If we could address these kind of issues on the front end as a preventative measure, we could probably save our patients/clients alot of pain and unneccesary medical procedures in the future.
Also, I like how you bring up athletes. Addressing the concept of regional interdependence, it is important that they are trained how to do it "the right way" to maximize all three systems and prevent injury. A couple of examples might be: 1. a lean tennis player who doesn't utilize enough hip and trunk rotation to serve. The compensatory stress on both passive and active structures of the shoulder complex can be devastating. 2. a bulky football player who lacks the relative mobility to prevent a triceps or hamstring tear.
Interesting reading, I have actually never heard of these different strategies.

2014-11-19 ~ "Awakening Through Change and Loss" (video)
Our capacity to live and love fully is entirely related to how we open to the truth of impermanence. This talk examines how our ways of trying to control life solidify our perception of being separate and threatened. We then look at the wings of mindful presence and compassion that open us to loss and grief, and reveal the loving awareness that is beyond birth and death.

Just as presence is the heart of meditation, so deep listening is at the center of all conscious, loving relationships. This talk explores how our wants and fears block listening, ways we can deepen our capacity for listening, and the healing that unfolds when we truly feel heard by another.

It's easy to be envious of man's four-legged best friend. They never have to worry about whether they're getting a thirteenth cheque, or whether they're going to have time to make dinner. If you're jealous of all the fun they have chasing their tales, get in on the action and pay R4999 for a Formula1 Experience with Monte Carlo Racing.
It can be tempting to throw caution to the wind and gun your regular, drive-it-to-work automobile down an empty stretch of highway, but speeding fines can put a bit of a damper on the experience. In a Reynard single-seater racing car – fitted with a 3.5 Litre Do V6 Engine – and speeding round a world-famous race track, you get to experience the more thrilling side of driving without hearing your car described as a public nuisance on the morning traffic report.
After being greeted with a welcome drink, kitted out in full professional racing gear – including the gloves, boots, suit and helmet that make all professional racers look exactly the same – open up your mind and ears for a comprehensive safety lecture to ensure that when you're burning rubber, you're doing it safely. You'll also get some simulation training and a few practice laps to ensure your actual experience goes smoothly. After that, you get to honest-to-Zues F1 racing experience and eat your own dust around a track that's been the host of more than a handful of Grand Prix, Moto GP, World Superbike and nine-hour endurance events – the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit.
In a branded car with more kick than an angry mule and half an hour of drive time, not to mention support from an experienced pit crew and a photographer snapping your laps, it's hard not to imagine yourself on some well-televised race with adoring fans screaming from the stands - a champagne award-ceremony also helps with that feeling. When all is said and done, you'll walk away with a branded tshirt, photos of your day and that sense of fulfilment that comes from driving really fast for no reason and doing it like a boss.Fast Fact: Workers at a carnival in North Carolina created the fastest bumper-car in the world. Made entirely of tinfoil, oak and AA batteries the car can achieve speeds of 200kmp/h.

Top Afghan Watchdog Says U.S. Withdrawal Complicates Efforts to Fight Fraud
The top watchdog overseeing the deeply flawed U.S. reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan has warned for months that his agency's ability to fight corruption and fraud will be drastically curtailed as the Pentagon continues to bring troops back home. But it turns out, the problems will be worse than even he thought. Officials with the watchdog organization plans to hire Afghan inspectors to help check up on U.S.-funded projects, but they acknowledge that won't be enough to ensure the reconstruction efforts are free of waste and abuse.
John Sopko, the special inspector general for Afghanistan reconstruction, told Foreign Policy on Thursday that a February meeting with officials from other government agencies, think tanks, and nongovernmental organizations left him deeply pessimistic about his auditors' ability to find ways of ensuring proper oversight as the war winds down. Sopko's agency, commonly known as SIGAR, pressed for information on how the other organizations do so-called third party monitoring of U.S.-funded projects elsewhere in the world. The government agencies and private institutions typically hire local residents in the countries where they are working to serve as de facto auditors, but warned him that those efforts often don't work as planned.
"I'll be honest with you: Maybe I was hoping for a silver bullet," Sopko said during an interview in his Virginia office just outside Washington. "The results are kind of mixed. People have thought of ideas and applied it, but they're not always as good as they're promised to be. I didn't walk away with an answer, and we're still mucking around trying to find one."
The comments come as senior U.S. officials in Washington and Kabul grapple with what a U.S. military presence may look like in Afghanistan after 2014, when President Obama says he will withdraw the remainder of U.S. combat troops from the country. Reuters reported Monday that the White House is considering chopping the residual force due to remain there afterward to less than 5,000 troops - less than half of what senior U.S. military commanders say they need. At the same time, U.S. officials anticipate spending another $20 billion in Afghanistan.
Sopko said he has not yet determined how a drawdown to that size will affect his agency's work after 2014. But SIGAR is likely to adopt a multi-prong approach for oversight after 2014 that includes contracting the work out to private companies, reviewing projects remotely through geospatial imagery and other technology, and recruiting Afghan civilians who already have worked for the U.S. government to perform inspections for SIGAR. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in particular, has employed a bevy of Afghans to work for the organization in the past, but is letting many of them go as it reduces its operations.
"They've already been cleared," Sopko said of their ability to work for the United States. "They've already been polygraphed and all that. We're talking about hiring more people like that to supplement our inspections staff, which is made up of U.S. employees."
SIGAR was established by Congress in 2008 to expose waste, fraud and abuse in the U.S. war in Afghanistan, with a primary emphasis on development projects that have cost hundreds of billions of dollars in the last decade. Sopko took the reins at SIGAR in July 2012,
jump-starting an organization that had a reputation for being inept and poorly managed. His predecessor, Arnold Fields, came under fire on Capitol Hill and resigned in 2011 under pressure. Since Sopko has taken over, however, SIGAR has maintained a frenetic pace, pumping out reports and letters that underscore mismanagement and occasionally embarrass U.S. military commanders and diplomats.
Despite the troop drawdown, the agency's size has remained steady so far, with about 200 employees spread across Afghanistan and Washington. However, the inability to find an easy answer on how to oversee reconstruction efforts after most of the troops go home at the end of this year also will mean it will cost more money to do so, Sopko said.
"It's going to be tougher, it's going to be more costly," he said, "And we're going to have to remind Congress that it's probably not going to be as good as all of the audits we're doing now."

The new king of arcade racers. Think about everything that was brilliant about its predecessors -- the whimsical take on the laws of physics, the gorgeous graphics, and the completely insane emphasis on crashing -- and multiply it by ten thousand.
Burnout 3 is special. It's not just another racing game, and despite lacking certain features car enthusiasts hold dear (such as customisation and ultra realism) it's easily the most fun we've ever had with any racing game. [Oct 2004, p.96]
Offers up insane speed, unequaled crash sequences, and a truly new style of gameplay. It has reinvented the wheel, so to speak....Burnout 3 is astonishing.
With incredibly realistic damage modelling transforming every crash into a work of art fit to be framed and hung on the walls of Paris' Louvre museum, Burnout 3 is a visual dynamo that will floor players with its speed and gorgeous vistas. [Oct 2004, p.122]
The only missteps are a super class of cars that are almost too fast for the courses, an abundance of loading screens, and a mostly terrible soundtrack--the latter two problems solved by the Xbox version. [Oct 2004, p.111]
A dose of high-quality gaming fast food that tastes fine but leaves you wanting something that sticks. [Oct 2004, p.77]

HatM.Oct 24, 2004This game is ok, but way overrated. OOHHH!!! LOOK AT ME!!! I GET TO DRIVE A CAR!!!! Give me a break. I drive a car everyday and it's no big deal. Video games are supposed to be an escape from reality, where you get do something you can't do in real life. But it's becoming increasingly popular to do stupid things in video games that you can do in real life like drive. It won't be long before we have "Put On Your Pajamas and Brush Your Teeth: The Video Game." Why don't people try a game where they get to experience something new, like A Dog's Life. In that game you get to be a dog!!! Has anyone here ever been a dog?!! No, it's something new and that's why you should play it. You waste time in video games driving cars or playing football or buying property or delivering pizzas, when you could escape reality. So why are games like the Sims popular? Because people are stupid. People as a whole like bad movies, bad music, bad politicians, bad books, and of course bad video games. It's because of those people that the video game industry is going to hell. But ya, Burnout 3 is OK, but come on, let's try something new people.… Expand
