Quick-strike attack helps Tornado to 5-3 win
The Texas Tornado scored two goals within under a minute of each other early in the third period to break a 2-2 tie and help lead Texas to a 5-3 victory over the Janesville Jets on Friday. Anthony Mousseau and Alex Temby had those goals, while Scott Conway, C.J. Reuschlein, and Jason Eddy picked up markers of their own in the victory. The Jets managed just 9 shots on goal against the Tornado, who move to 3-0 on the young season and have won five straight games dating back to last year's Robertson Cup. Jerry Kaukinen made his first career NAHL start in net and got the win.
The goals came in waves for both teams on Friday, as the Tornado scored two goals in 1:42 during the first period. At 5:08, Reuschleintook a pass from Justin Greenberg and stickhandled his way into the slot. He drove hard towards goal and powered it past Jets goaltender Colin Brennan and made it a 1-0 game. The goal created a scramble in front, and when all was said and done the Tornado were assessed the lone penalty, a high sticking minor to Louie Rowe. Still killing off that penalty , Conway swooped in behind the Janesville net and stripped a defenseman of the puck before scoring on a wraparound to give the Tornado a 2-0 lead. Texas took the two-goal lead into the second period, but this time it was Janesville who scored back-to-back goals quickly.
It remained a 2-0 game through the first 10 minutes, but a Jets power-play gave them an opportunity to cut the lead in half. They did so after Matt Salituro made a pass circle-to circle to Austin Veith at the left wing, who sent a one-timer past Kaukinen for the goal, the first Jets shot on goal of the period. 1:27 later, a Jordan Himley goal on a snapshot from down low tied the score, and even though the Tornado had dominated play, they found themselves tied on the scoreboard. The Tornado outshot Janesville 12-3 in the second, but it remained a 2-2 game into the third period.
It didn't take long for the Tornado to break the tie, with Mousseau's goal coming at 1:49 of the third. With the Tornado on a power-play, Greenberg got his second assist of the game after spotting Mousseau moving down the right wing. Greenberg's pass from the left corner hit the rookie defenseman at the top of the circle, whose wrist shot ripped past Brennan as the Tornado regained the lead. Just 43 seconds later, a huge scramble in front led to Temby's goal, which touched off a scuffle behind the goal line as the net got knocked off its pegs. Temby and Janesville's Colin Lemirande were both given roughing double-minors, but the goal stood and the Tornado led 4-2.
It was a short-lived two goal lead, though, as just two minutes later Janesville scored the second power-play goal of the game. Matthieu Audet scored on a similar play to Mousseau's taking a cross-ice pass and beating Kaukinen with a shot from the circle. Later in the period with the Tornado nursing a one-goal lead, Jason Eddy gave the Tornado an insurance goal as he skated down the left wing and unleashed a huge slapshot to beat Brennan and give the Tornado a two-goal lead, which they would hold until the final buzzer.
The Tornado will conclude their NAHL Showcase at 3:45 p.m. on Saurday with a game against the Coulee Region Chill.

The outage, which began just after noon, affected all Nasdaq stocks and options.

Cocky & Funny (C&F)
|Knowledge Sphere:
|David DeAngelo
Quick Definition: An attitude that is a mix of cockiness (confidence) and a sense of humor, modeled from the behavior of typical "bad boys."
Full Definition:
PUAs are Cocky & Funny because it generates attraction in a woman. The cocky part of the equation involves appearing confident, and even a little sarcastic, while the funny part balances out the cockiness with humor and rapport. Combined together, C&F results in flirty interactions that involve teasing and banter, similar to the concept of Push/Pull.
It is important to combine both the cocky and funny elements together, rather than focusing on just one. Being too cocky can make you come across as an asshole, while being just funny will turn you into a clown, who may be entertaining, but not very attractive.
Cocky & Funny is a cornerstone theme of David DeAngelo's e-book Double your Dating, which was one of the first mass-marketed, mainstream dating products on the Internet.

Garnett was the leading vote-getter for the 2008 NBA All-Star game with 1,186,690 votes when the second set of returns were released Thursday. Celtics forward Paul Pierce and guard Ray Allen were fourth at their positions in the Eastern Conference.
Boston acquired Garnett, a 10-time All-Star, from Minnesota and Allen, a seven-time All-Star, from Seattle in the offseason.
Cavaliers star LeBron James, the leading vote-getter last year, had the second-highest total in the NBA with 1,005,733 votes. Guards Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat and Jason Kidd of the New Jersey Nets, and Orlando center Dwight Howard also were in position to start for the East in the Feb. 11 game in New Orleans.
Lakers guard Kobe Bryant was the leading Western Conference vote-getter with 941,716, followed by Rockets center Yao Ming (813,305) and Denver forward Carmelo Anthony (767,722). Spurs forward Tim Duncan and Houston guard Tracy McGrady also were among the West leaders.
Bryant had 31 points, six assists and six steals to lead the West to a 153-132 victory over the East in last year's game in Las Vegas, winning his second All-Star MVP award.
Voting will continue through Jan. 20 and the All-Star starters will be announced on Jan. 24.

Healthy Or Hype? The Skinny On Coconut Water
by Gabriela Alford Jen Hazen
Mmm, coconut water. Super-hydrating! Potassium-rich! All natural! There's no shortage of talk about Mother Nature's tropical cocktail these days, but any "healthy" drink that gets so much buzz — and is so ridiculously tasty — makes us wonder if it's too good to be true. Depending on who you

This headline is totally misleading considering this article is all about the benefits of coconut water (obviously you should avoid any that has added sugar)

It's become one of the traditional highlights of the BBC's election coverage - Jeremy Vine and his virtual reality graphics package. It would be too much to hope for a repeat of his comedy cowboy antics of two years ago, but the early indication, from this picture at least, is that we can expect some smooth moves from the BBC Radio 2 DJ. If it's not exactly clear what he's up to in front of the green screen, all is revealed on the monitor on the right. Thank goodness for that. Immaculately turned out as ever, JV.

What is boston marriage ???

A Boston marriage, in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, was an arrangement in which two women lived together, independent of any man's support. Today, the term sometimes describes two women living together without a sexual relationship. Such a relationship may involve intimacy and commitment without sexuality.Answered by Kumar Mukesh, 10 Mar '10 10:24 am
It seems that the term Boston marriage came into use after Henry James's book The Bostonians (1886) detailed a marriage-like relationship between two "New Women". The term Boston marriage was used in New England in the late 19th century to describe a long-term monogamous relationship between two unmarried women. Some women did not marry because men feared educated women during the 19th century and did not wish to have them as wives. Other women did not marry because they felt they had a better connection to women than to men. Some of these women ended up living together in a same-sex household, finding this arrangement both practical and preferable to a heterosexual marriage. Of necessity, such women were generally financially independent of men, due either to family inheritance or to their own career earnings. Women who decided to be in these relationships were usually feminists, and were often involved in social betterment and cultural causes. with shared values often forming a stron ...moreAnswered by Oberoi, 10 Mar '10 10:25 am

Tired hotel had trouble with the card key every time we entered room
Free of charge wifi; very central location (next to Alamo); very good (but quite expensive) breakfast. Really nice ambiance in the lobby and dinning room; great Christmas decorations.
After the first night, the cleaning staff for some reason removed the cover sheet from the bed and never returned it. I told the staff three times but they didn't change it. The walls are rather thin, one can hear the (very loud) flushing from the toilet in the next room, as well as the TV.
Wonderful time in SA; Menger is beautiful. Great place for Texas history lovers! You couldn't get closer to Alamo & riverwalk! Had a couple of issues with the room and staff took care of it right away! Friendly courteous staff. Would come back.
Only one complaint - should have gotten room with 2 beds!
Has the most comfortable bed with very soft, white sheets & towels.
The shower didn't work at full capacity, and the air vent made loud noise so I turned off the air.
everything above
could have been there longer,amount to park for valet parking.
Staff was great ... Only had cheap dish pkg for cable I guess ! Wanted to watch my shows and relax before heading out monday morning but couldn't get amc !!who has dish and r too cheap to get decent channel pkg ??
Bathroom, no proper hot water an pressure. Thin walls. Rude personal. Worst breakfast I had in years
Proximiity to Riverwalk
Stale smell in hotel & room!
Staff was great! Got upgraded to a different room after the first night, by request.
Uncomfortable bed and pillows. Classic room very small with window facing a wall.
The location and the fact that the Hotel was close to the Riverwalk
The fact that I got charged for water bottles that I never drank.. I was told housekeeping said the seals were broke, but the water wasn't drank.. Seriously, if I am gonna break the seals then I would be drinking them.
Steps away from the Alamo and river walk this is centrally located. Older hotel with lots of charm
Room was older but still clean
room was cold at night floors were not clean carpet has lost it's pretty blue color- unlike the old pictures on web. hotel smelled (I know it's old)
Historic hotel was nice.
Shower has hot or cold. You freeze or burn because there is no warm. Hard to keep the room cool. Bed was old and worn. Not enough space in the bathroom for females at least.
The hotel is well located, near the river walk and the Alamo, the hotel bar and lobby were historically decorated. Staff were helpful in pointing out somewhere for breakfast.
Our room was small and run down. The hotel was very noisy with people banging around at 3am.
beautiful hotel great location friendly staff
Walls were paper thin...could hear entire conversations in the rooms next to us
old ambience
rooms old and basic expensive extra parking
Staff, hidden charges, hot water didn't work in the shower, staff seemed like they didn't care about getting it repaired and never did.
Room was a good size. Comfortable bed
Walls are thin could hear others conversations
The valet service was great!
The place smelled of being older, and had a very poor size of beds.
The bar staff is the greatest, this was my second visit, and they still remembered our name. As well at reception desk, and dinning. The true spirit of past and present lives at the menger.
8 days was not enough, for this great city.
We loved the location -- across from the Alamo; the Colonial Room restaurant was fabulous; staying in the old section was GREAT and historic; the Menger Bar!!!
WiFi was weak unless you were downstairs in the new lobby.
I love the hotel been going for years location and restaurant
after staying lots of times for many years lately I have been getting the smallest oldest rooms in the hotel
really loved general hotel ambiance, loved the outdoor garden and lobby decor/history. Cool bar and great breakfast. Location couldn't be better. Staff was pleasant.
room was just okay. fairly small, especially for the price - not updated at all. could easily hear neighbors on either side.
Staff was very friendly - enjoyed the visit to visit colleges in San Antonio with my niece
The location was great and we wanted to stay in the historic hotel.
We only had one wash cloth when we arrived and the next morning all of the used towels and washcloths were left in the bathroom after cleaning. There were two of us in the room a!d we both drink regular coffee, but there was only one, so we ask for another. When we got the bill we had been charged for it! Then $100 for something and $28 a day for parking the car and we never moved it.

text: Roseanne Reeling: 'Domestic Goddess' Trailing in Green Party Presidential Battle Print article Send a Tip by Christian Toto 14 May 2012 post a comment This hasn't been a good year so far for Roseanne Barr. First, her NBC pilot "Downwardly Mobile" tested poorly, putting her return to the small screen in doubt. And now, her public battle for the Green Party's presidential nomination is hitting a serious snag. As of last week, Jill Stein, a physician who has previously run for governor of Massachusetts, has 75 percent of delegates thus far in the run-up to the Green Party convention in Baltimore in July. After the Maine meeting of the Greens, Stein had a total of 96.5 delegates and Barr had 18.5 delegates. And in another blow to Roseanne's campaign, she unsuccessfully tried to recruit Willie Nelson as her running mate over the weekend. Barr has one of the more active Twitter accounts around, but despite madly re-Tweeting supporters' comments and getting free publicity thanks to her celebrity status she can't get traction in her own party. Maybe she could spin off and create a Domestic Goddess party and have the nomination all to herself.

I have a young ball python named Patch. Ball pythons are chubby snakes; short and fat and generally quite slow when moving, so they are not likely to scare someone who is afraid of snakes. They are incredibly strong creatures with over 77% of their entire bodies consisting of pure muscle, so they will squeeze very tightly and effortlessly to anything supporting them. Ball pythons often scare their new owners when they refuse to eat for months at a time. This is simply because they are sensitive creatures and they become shy and reclusive when introduced to a new situation. It may take your python a full year to become accustomed to your home, and so he will be quite reluctant to eat. Very seldom will a reptile eat when shedding, so you can speed up the shed by warm baths every couple of days until the snake finally gets rid of his skin. It is always better to feed several small prey items rather than one large one. I suggest offering a live pinky mouse every to every other day. If the snake eats it, he eats it. If not, it can wait a day or two. This is the best way for a snake to eat, as it does wonders for their digestive tract. Studies show that snakes fed this way can top fifty years or more, and even in some cases, outlive their owners! A larger snake can be fed a larger mouse, or more pinkies. Breeding colonies of mice is a great way to get hundreds of mice for under ten dollars, and to keep them for years to come. Ball pythons are extremely sensitive to drastic temperature change, and they can slowly freeze to death even at room temperature! Remember, your body makes heat on its own, but snakes need their environment to make heat for them. This is what "cold-blooded" really means. Have you ever noticed your snake crawling towards appliances, heaters, warm food, or even towards you? They can "see" warm places, and they like to be near them to regulate body temperature. A cold snake will quickly wander to the warmest place it sees to keep itself alive. That's why it's a good idea to turn on a small heater and put a towel next to it whenever your snake gets loose. You can check the towel every couple of hours to see if your buddy is sleeping underneath it. If you let a mouse crawl on the towel, your snake will also be attracted to the tasty smell.
SITE ADMIN: Alter the text as you see fit, post the parts that you like most if you need to make room. Feel free to leave my address on the page, as I enjoy helping inexperienced python owners in their times of need. Feel free to contact me at any time, I'd be more than happy to chat!

Our ball python Jafar has never been aggressive until recently. Recently he has become increasingly aggressive. We have noticed that he seems to be tracking our movements more often and had decided to feed him more frequently but smaller rats. (He was eating a jumbo about every four to six weeks and now is eating a medium rat about every other week) He actually struck my husband's hand (didn't coil and immediately released) during a feeding session. This is something unusual for him. I was wondering if there is any illness or condition that might render Jafar more aggressive and if anyone has any tips or advice. We love our snake but are becoming afraid to take him out. Thanks

My 13 month old ball python's belly has begun to look concave with the sides curling in towards the center of the underbelly. Also she is stargazing and her last shed was difficult. We also noticed that her last bowel movement was extremely smelly. What does all this indicate about her health, and what should we do?

Our 13 month old ball python, Sue Ellen, has been very healthy. However, this month she had a hard time shedding (mostly from the head area) and I realize that she needs more humidity. Now I notice that her underbelly is getting concave at times, and edges curl in towards the center. She always eats well and seems otherwise healthy. What does this mean? Is it an indication of something that is wrong? She also had a bowel movement this week that smelled very rank, which has never happened before. She also seems to stare into space a lot more than she used to, instead of going into her hide where it is warm or crawling around. I took some photos and a short video, so perhaps you know if there is someone I could send it to who can tell if this is something wrong.

I recently took in a friends ball python they could no longer take care of, she said he hadn't eaten in 3 months so the day I got him I went to a reptile store. They gave me a feeder mouse but a few days passed and he refused to eat, it's been almost a month he has not shed or eaten. He hardly comes out of his rock so I checked on him, pulled him out and noticed his eyes are cloudy, what is this, what can I do?

My ball python, Sue Ellen, is about 8 or 9 months old. She eats well, is active and appears very healthy. But a couple of weeks ago we noticed her left eye looked cloudy. We thought she may have scratched it in her habitat because she often stands on her tail trying to get out, then eventually falls back into her log and other rough items that could have scratched her eye. Now it even appears to be swelling and is much bigger than her good eye. Does this indicate an infection, or does it indicate that there is an eye cap stuck there that did not shed properly? I am very concerned about this and wonder what I should do.

I have a ball python that is under a year old. When she came to us she was eating live, I have been trying to get her to eat frozen and it's been very difficult. I've managed to get her to eat one in the last 4 months. She is a small snake but the other day I noticed she looks bloated, her head and the neck just behind her head is normal but then she goes large and I can't believe she is growing due to the fact she hasn't eaten anything.I was going to just go back to feeding her live I feel so bad she hasn't eaten. How long can one go without eating before they actually starve? And does anyone have any idea what could cause what looks to be bloating in her? Robbin Winn Powers is my Facebook if any one could offer any advice and could pm me on Facebook I'd be very thankful.

I have a baby ball python his name is tilly. Last night my boyfriend was holding him, watching tv, and fell asleep. I was sitting on the chair and all of a sudden didnt see him. I leaned to see if he was over me and he wasnt. I guess he was under the chair. And the chair pinched about a little bit above his butt. We were in the vet for 3 hours last night, they said they would have to do xrays but it doesnt freel broke. I can afford the xrays so they gave us medicine to give him, has this happened to anyone else? Will he be okay? :(

One of the joys of homeschooling my Cupcakes is that I get to learn about our beautiful Catholic faith with them. We celebrated the election of Pope Francis last March 2013 and we all learned so much about this process.
Then it was Pope Francis, along with former Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, who canonized Saint John XXIII and Saint John Paul II on Sunday, April 27, 2014. I wanted to teach our family, including myself, more about the canonization process so every day last week we worked on The Canonization of 2 Popes Faith Folder Lapbooks that I purchased from Emmanuel Books HERE.
This was a great activity to do last week since the first part of the week we completed our annual end of year testing that is required by our state each year. So after each day of testing, it was a nice break to discuss and assemble the lapbooks together.
The lapbook covered many different topics that you can read HERE. We worked on a little bit of the lapbook each day, which took us about a week. For each section, we would read it together, then we would cut it out and glue it to the folders in the area that was outlined. There was alot of cutting and pasting involved, which wasn't what some of my children thought was total fun, but they survived and we all learned a thing or two along the way. :)
I enjoyed the many conversations we had while doing this activity and my son was curious about how many Popes were between Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II, so we flipped through Lives of the Popes: Illustrated Biographies of Every Pope from St. Peter to the Present that I had to find out more information. This is a beautiful, illustrated book with information about our first Pope, Peter, from 33 to 64 AD, all the way through to Pope John Paul II, who was Pope from 1978-2005).
Here are pictures from The Canonization of 3 Popes Faith Folder Lapbooks:
Such historical and exciting times we are witnessing in the Church today! I'm hoping that celebrating such special days with food, fun, and lapbooks the memories of these times will stay with my our family for many years!

It's for: Better players
Technology: Callaway's softest ball generates more spin on short shots than previous models. The four-piece ball has a low-compression "dual" core consisting of a soft inner core (to decrease driver spin) and firmer outer core (to increase wedge spin). Improved dimple aerodynamics reduce in-flight drag for longer distance.
Ball-fitting options: The online ball-selector tool at
callawaygolf.com recommends an
orb based on your responses (player
preferences) to three simple questions.
What else is new: The four-piece Tour i(z) targets a broader audience, feels firmer and focuses more on length than the Tour i(s).

Productivity of four fodder tree species, their nutritional value and potential role in ruminant production in Eastern Botswana

Productivity of four fodder tree species, their nutritional value and potential role in ruminant production in Eastern Botswana
Walker, Keitirele Patricia
Date Issued:
Sustainable livestock production in semi-arid Botswana could be improved through tree planting on-farm to provide much needed protein and shade. Such action can be encouraged if the growth, productivity, nutritional value of trees and their contribution to mass gain of livestock are known.. A study at Malotwana investigated two indigenous species, Acacia galpinii and Faidherbia albida, and two exotic species, Leucaena diversifolia and L. leucocephala, at three spacings in a randomised complete block design replicated five times. The three spacings represented 400, 317 and 241 trees per hectare. The study was conducted over 6.5 years. Indigenous trees were sampled biennially and exotics annually to evaluate crown width, height, stem diameter, stem number and stem volume index. Complete plant harvesting of exotic trees at 2.5, 4.5 and 6.5 years evaluated agroforestry production. Leaves from all four species and pods of exotic species were analysed for chemical composition. Two groups of eight lambs were balanced for mass at selection for an on-farm feeding trial. Browse from exotic trees, comprising a 2:1 ratio of pods to leaves, was fed at 30% as supplement to hay to one group whose mean mass was contrasted with that of the control group fed sorghum bran at 30%. A. galpinii was a promising species, adaptable to planting away from its origin. Its crown width ranged from 5.86 m in high density plots to 6.08 m at low density and was significantly different among stands (p = 0.0406) at 6.5 years. Diameter at breast height (dbh) was significantly different among stands aged 6.5 years (p = 0.0003) and ranged between 10.38 cm at high density to 12.48 cm in low density plots, demonstrating a capacity to provide both shade and poles on-farm. At 4.5 years, F. albida attained a mean height of 4.5 m and 4.5 cm in dbh but suffered 67% mortality during a severe drought. Annual fodder production of 0.647 and 0.996 metric tonnes ha-1 for leaves and pods of L. diversifolia and 1.237 and 1.431 for L. leucocephala was recorded in years of average rainfall. Yields of 0.3 and 0.59 metric tonnes ha-1 were recorded for both species in the driest year. Equally good agroforestry production was obtained from both low and high density stands suggesting that low density plantings, which foster higher plant survival and reduce disease incidence, are best suited to the semi-arid conditions of Botswana. The crude protein of leaves ranged between 16.26 (L. diversifolia) and 25.25% (F. albida). They were highly digestible with more than twice the calcium content livestock require. Crude protein and digestibility measures were significantly different among leaves and varied significantly at different spacings (p<0.0001). Pods of the exotic species contained significantly more protein than the leaves (p<0.0001). Lambs supplemented with browse gained 102.33 g per animal per day while the control group gained 83.95 g. There were significant differences between groups during growth (p<0.05). Growing of A. galpinii, complemented with L. diversifolia and L. leucocephala, can supply short and long term feed, and greatly enhance livestock production while diversifying farm feed sources

Player Notes
From the moment he recorded a 40 yard drive at the age of two, it was clear that Northern Ireland had unearthed another rare golfing gem. A glittering amateur career made way for a spectacular start to his life as a professional, culminating in him becoming the youngest player in the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking at the end of 2008 and then his European Tour breakthrough with a wire-to-wire victory in the 2009 Dubai Desert Classic. By winning in Dubai at the age of 19 and 273 days he became the sixth youngest winner in European Tour history, and youngest since Sergio Garcia triumphed a decade earlier in the Linde German Masters aged 19 and 267 days. Joined the paid ranks in 2007 after an amateur career which saw him rise to become the world's number one amateur. Played his first professional event as a 16 year old in 2005 and in the same year became the youngest winner of the prestigious West of Ireland and Irish Close Championships before representing Europe in the Junior Ryder Cup. He also shot a course record 61 at Royal Portrush Golf Club in 2005. In 2007 he reached the top of the World Amateur Rankings and caught the public eye with his superb opening three under par 68 in The Open Championship at Carnoustie, the only bogey-free round of the day. Made the cut in his first professional event and finished third in his second professional event, the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, earning enough money to assure his place in the top 115 to become the youngest and quickest Affiliate Member to secure his card, in just two events.

Jump out of bed, grab some coffee, and dress, put on make up as fast as I can. I may look like a clown, but I can get ready pretty fast!!!!!
Drop whatever is uninportant or can be done later. And call. Always let someone know you're going to be late.
start running around like the lunatic that I am :)
do everything double time except when I'm driving. Cut out extraneous things like making coffee or eating breakfast before I leave and just hope I can get a bite later, and apologize on the phone if I need to.
Move faster and call my boss (if I had one) to let him know I'll be a few minutes late. It makes you look more responsible than just walking in late.
In such cases..I skip my routine and attend only the urgent and important ones of the day.
I always phone and explain, would be wrong not to unless I'm certain I can make it on time. Has given me a reputation for honesty if not, perhaps, punctuality.. :)
Oversleeping, God what a luxury.
