My husband and I attend alot of concerts. Very rarely do we agree. Recently we saw
Kid Rock/Lynard Skynard at First Midwest in Tinley Park, Il.....He went for Skynard & I went for k-Rock....
Toby Keith was the hottest show we have seen in along time. Neither of us were Trace Adkins fans , but after seeing him in concert we can't wait to see BOTH of them again.We were both Toby fans and feel that we don't want to miss another of his shows. Going to try & make Maryland Heights. Sprint center(KC) was AWESOME and the sound was great for indoors. Toby and Trace ROCKED!!!!!

Just saw Toby Keith and Trace Adkins at The Comcast Cener in Mansfield, Mass. Probably one of the best shows I have ever seen. If you like country music and you love the USA, you have to see Toby Keith. Simply AWESOME.

Curriculum & Resources: Journey Into Dyslexia
Journey Into Dyslexia
VISIT: The filmmaker's website for Journey Into Dyslexia
It's estimated that 1 in 10 people in the United States have dyslexia. So, what's it like to have dyslexia? And, how can students with dyslexia successfully learn?
Dyslexia is a learning disability that is neurologically based—it results from differences in how the brain processes information. It is not a mental disorder or related to intelligence. It straddles all levels of education and economic class. While people with dyslexia see words differently, they also see things that others miss.
In the HBO film, "Journey Into Dyslexia," award-winning filmmakers Alan and Susan Raymond visit schools throughout the U.S. that have programs specifically designed for different ways of learning. Students—elementary through college—teachers, researchers, and successful adults candidly speak about their school experiences, why different is good, and how they have learned to navigate the world.
Check out the "Journey into Dyslexia" website to view the trailer and to explore its many resources on dyslexia, including facts, biographies of notable adults with dyslexia, and educational resources. See if your library has the film available for check-out, or you may purchase the film online.
Visit the HBO website for Journey into Dyslexia.
Here are other excellent websites that advocate positive, forward-thinking insights and actions on dyslexia:
Dyslexia Foundation of New Zealand
Like the U.S., nearly 1 in 10 New Zealanders have dyslexia. The foundation offers resources to recognize and understand dyslexia, and take action with solutions and assessments.
Children of the Code
Look beyond this website's colorful disarray and you'll find an abundance of videos and interviews with neuroscientists and others on "the code," and the challenge of learning to read it.
Dyslexic Advantage
Dyslexic Advantage is a gathering place for people with or interested in dyslexia. Established by two neurolearning specialists, it houses stories, podcasts, forums, and articles on dyslexia, testing, teaching methods, and more.
- Speak Up! Curriculum from Teaching Tolerance
Six Steps to Speaking Up Against Everyday Bigotry Teaching Tolerance's Speak Up! initiative helps individuals stand up to everyday prejudice. Learn not only about injustice, but how to stand up to it.
- Take Back Your Education
More and more people are waking up to the mismatch between what is taught in schools and what we need to know. What can you do about it?
- Emotional Learning Brings Real Hope to Schools
A little-known movement helps kids understand the connection between the brain and heart, and improve their behavior (and test scores) too.
The above resources accompany the November 2011 YES!

MORRISSEY: Openly-gay NBA player Jason Collins is the right man at the right time
BY RICK MORRISSEY firstname.lastname@example.com April 29, 2013 10:36PM
FILE: NBA Player Jason Collins Comes Out As Gay
Related Stories
Updated: June 1, 2013 6:35AM
Jason Collins has become the first openly gay male professional athlete in the four major American team sports.
That's a lot of modifiers, and it speaks both to the progress made in women's sports and to the irrational fear that has always been part of men's sports: You can't have homosexuals in the locker room!
But a new day dawned Monday, and the world didn't end. No biblical plague arrived. Most people seemed … fine.
ESPN's Chris Broussard did say that homosexuality is an "open rebellion to God.'' No, an open rebellion to God is failing to love your neighbor.
For all the fretting, for all the concern that there would be a huge backlash against the first athlete who decided to come out, the backlash was nowhere to be seen in the immediate aftermath of his cover story in Sports Illustrated. It still felt revolutionary. It still felt absolutely courageous. But more than anything, it just felt right, didn't it? That's the biggest thing to come out of Monday's news — that, in the end, it was more a sigh of relief. That sigh said, "It's about time.''
In one sense, the whole thing was silly. Of course there are gay men who are professional athletes. In most every other walk of life, there are openly gay men. Why wouldn't there be in sports?
"The climate has shifted; public opinion has shifted,'' Collins wrote in Sports Illustrated. "And yet we still have so much farther to go."
Lots of people say that the locker room is the last bastion of machismo. And there certainly are some knuckle-draggers. You'll recall that Chris Culliver, the 49ers defensive back, said at the Super Bowl that he couldn't welcome a gay teammate.
"We don't have any gay guys on the team," he said. "They gotta get up outta here if they do. Can't be with that sweet stuff."
But sometimes I wonder if we aren't giving players enough credit. The guess here is that the majority of pro athletes in the four major sports will have no issue with Collins or the other gay athletes who will inevitably follow his lead. After his announcement, there was a flood of support for Collins from fellow athletes on Twitter.
Frankly, I worry more about coaches and front-office people than I do players. Some of them are products of less-enlightened times. Many of the coaches are control freaks who worry about everything, including team chemistry. You can almost hear the wheels spinning inside their heads: How will this affect the locker room? Will this cause a schism? How do I deal with something I've never dealt with before?
The answer to the last question: By being human. By treating everybody the same. By demanding that players respect one another. By refusing to reject a gay player just because of the difficult challenges that might confront the organization.
I have no doubt that, alongside all the supportive messages, idiocy is flowing freely through social media. That's because there are a lot of idiots in the world. The 34-year-old Collins might be the perfect person to handle all of it, the good and the bad. He just finished his 12th season. He's mature. He can speak with intelligence on the issue. He can deal with criticism. He can ignore the lunatic fringe. And he won't have to face years of scrutiny as an active player.
A younger player might not handle it as well. A star might not want another layer of fame. Maybe the next person will have a more difficult time. But Collins is the right person at the right time.
After playing for Boston and Washington this season, he's now a free agent. His announcement ensures that some team will sign him. Can you imagine how bad it would look for the NBA if no team stepped forward with a contract?
Time will tell how much hatred Collins will encounter, but I think it will be far less than the support he'll receive. Too many people have gay brothers, sisters and children.
To the fans, players and coaches who are uncomfortable with the idea of an openly gay NBA player, get over it. It's done.
"I'm happy to start the conversation,'' Collins said. "I wish I wasn't the kid in the classroom raising his hand and saying, 'I'm different.' If I had my way, someone else would have already done this. Nobody has, which is why I'm raising my hand."
High five.

Mid-Century Modern
In the mid-twentieth century, the design world changed forever.
Fueled by advancements in mass production and innovative new materials (think plastics and molded plywood), designers began to radically experiment with shape, color and function to create some of the most iconic designs we now know today. At Lumens, you will find a great selection of mid century modern and retro themed lighting, lamps, ceiling fans and furniture.
Why We Love Mid Century Modern Designs
Iconic mid-century designers like George Nelson, Charles and Ray Eames and Arne Jacobsen incorporated intense colors, organic silhouettes, seductive curves and bold geometric shapes in their pieces, which continue to remain highly sought after by mid-century enthusiasts.
And even today, lighting designers continue to include many mid-century elements, both funky and highly ingenious. Jonathan Adler lighting consistently and playfully references the era in its design work for Robert Abbey, while Portugal-based DelightFULL has a fun and flashy line of mid-century modern lighting that looks like it was pulled directly out of a 1962 home.
Other Great Options
Try adding an iconic Eames lounge chair from Herman Miller to complete your mid-century modern designed home. Designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1956, this lounge chair is one of the most significant and enduring designs of the 20th century. Gus furniture also has a great assortment of mid-century modern sofas, sectionals and chairs to choose from. And if it is a fan you need, The Modern Fan Company has you covered with multiple ceiling designs that fit the theme.

The Top 10 Dressing Tables
Designers Charlotte Moss and Nestor Santa-Cruz evaluate these chic and versatile vanities that do far more than just look pretty
By Tim McKeough
The mere mention of dressing tables may bring to mind images of early Hollywood starlets checking their hair and makeup, but these highly functional pieces have been around far longer than that. The specialized table, usually featuring drawers and sometimes a mirror, first appeared in 17th-century France before catching on with English and American cabinetmakers. Today, dressing tables come in an array of shapes, sizes, and materialsand small consoles and desks can also often fit the role.
"My first dressing table was a kidney-shaped number my grandmother gave me," says Charlotte Moss. "It was terribly chic." She uses her current one not only to apply makeup, she says, but also "to display jewelry and personal items."
Nestor Santa-Cruz admires the compact furnishing for its versatility. "I like the idea of a dressing table that could be moved through the house and used as a desk or even a dining table," he says. "It could become your most important piece."
Trained as an architect, Washington, D.C., designer Santa-Cruz has a flair for appealing proportions and uncluttered compositions. He is also a design director at Gensler.nestorsanta-cruz.com
In addition to designing richly detailed interiors, New Yorkbased Moss has created products and written style guides. Her new collections for Century Furniture and Fabricut will debut in 2014.charlottemoss.com

After acquiring the game and playing it i found it to be one of the best ideas ever brought to the console. the game play is fantastic christipher lloyd as the voice of doc and a cameo voice over from the man himself micheal j fox. make this game totaly addictive. the graphics are fantastic and the puzzles are fun to solve and if there is a puzzle your having trouble with then the game as a built in hints bar you can use. the sounds of the car are exact to the movie. It gets a 5 star review score from me and a whole lotta thumbs up. You wont be dissapointed once you start playing its very hard to put it down. the only glitch it has is the controls are hard to get accurate but once you get the hang of them its all just fun . fun . fun.. i loved every minute of it so make sure its one for your shopping basket before they sell out.

Tips for Your Southwest Edible Garden in December
Growing your own vegetables like tomatoes, peppers and eggplants from seed gives you the satisfaction of knowing you were involved from start to that moment when you serve a dish full of vegetables you raised and prepared. Growing from seed allows you a much wider range of varieties than you would normally find at the nursery, so you can experiment with heirlooms, open-pollinated varieties, or even seeds you kept from previous harvests. In the Southwest, December is the time to get the process started.

The Original Big Shrimpy Dog Bed; the true original. It's sweet dreams for any dog that stretches out on this bed by - voted best pet product, Seattle Magazine. A serious dog mattress with tons of fill.
The zippered outer cover of the Original Bed combines water-resistant 420 denier nylon packcloth with a polyester fleece or faux suede sleeping surface. This outer cover surrounds an inner cushion made of ripstop nylon. The inner cushion is filled with SmartFill", our 100% recycled fiber. The inner cushion is odor and water-resistant, but if necessary, the inner cushion can be unzipped to remove and wash the Smartfill. Of course, the outer cover and inner cushion are washable as well.
These design features extend the life of the bed, allowing a pet owner to simply replace the outer cover when needed instead of discarding the entire bed. Outer Covers can be purchased separately for replacement or for a new look.

I have a couple more questions to try and answer, I think. I should have time to read and answer on my bus ride to work tomorrow and maybe a little at work.
I also need to figure out who should be up next; please feel free to PM me with requests, etc.
John, could you please name any and all board members you have sexed with and the specific nature of the sex itself. For example:
[Female Board Member's Name]
Handy Received: [X]
Handy Given: [X]
Oral Received: [X]
Oral Given: [X]
Intercourse: [X]
Anal Received: [X]
Anal Given: You only receive.
No more questions?
Also reading the rules on the first page the week was supposed to start with Monday and if the member had not shown up/acknowledged by 5 pm a new person would be picked. But since I didn't see this just now I am going to continue the current method and be done in 2.5 hours and try to have a new person in by then, too.
I know cutterbutter has said he'd like to do this.
John needs to pick someone, preferably against their will.
12/31: Derek Plaslaiko, Dave Aju @ f8
1/8: Tamaryn @ The Chapel
1/28: Beacon @ The Rickshaw Stop
1/29: Ty Segall, Wand, Cold Beat @ GAMH
2/7: Robag Whrume, Daniel Bell, Sassmouth, The Black Madonna @ Public Works
2/14: Sparks @ Ace Theater Hollywood
I haven't missed the cut off, have I?
Would you pick me to be on your side in a fight?
Okay, same question, but pretend I don't have a broken ankle.
Let's talk about how you say you want to have kids maybe. I, personally, regard the prospect of parenthood as wholly terrifying: even the rewarding parts. I will assume it's basically the same for most people. What makes that less scary for you? Have you always seen yourself as a father?
I have been busy at work this afternoon and most of y'all don't know what EDT means so I am going to hold onto the reins for a little while. I plan to have announced someone by 5 pm PDT.
Last edited by mountmccabe; 08-06-2012 at 02:07 PM. Reason: more
I liked how the trombone sounded and I liked that it was a powerful instrument without being (generally) a lead instrument. This was a poor choice though as with a slide you really have to play by ear. Third position is near the bell but there isn't a notch or anything, you have to know (and adjust as necessary) by ear. I could never hear precisely enough to know if I was a little flat, a little sharp or what without something to compare it to. I didn't practice enough and my lips weren't strong enough so my embouchure wasn't that great so my tone was never that clean. I understood the theory though we never did much directly with that.
In the spring of my junior year my band teacher saw that we were going to have two people on the drumline for the following year which does not work for marching band so he looked for people to switch instruments. We had a strong set of trombonists and I wasn't the best, he knew that I'd follow through and I was big enough to march with a 32" bass drum. I wasn't great but I could watch a drum major and stay on beat, which is the most important part. The drumline was a lot of fun and a lot of it was working together - often figures would run up and down the bass drums so we had to be on the same page - so we were more of a group. I stayed on and played percussion during the concert season, which was also fun. It involved a whole lot of down time, counting measures and figuring out how to play all kinds of weird percussive instruments.
If I had to pick up an instrument now (not all that interested) I would want to plan organ. I love how they sound and I love how readily they play multiple lines at once.
Which board member would you be most inclined to beat the shit out of?
I know you've got a Droid. Have you ever considered getting an iPhone? I'm trying to hold out on upgrading my phone till September but if the iPhone 5 is too expensive or impossible to get, please detail the benefits of a Droid for me.
If you got to curate your own music festival: when & where would you have it occur, what would you call it, and who would be the top 3 acts of each day? (You get to decide whether it's a 2-, 3-, or 4-day fest.)
I still have the mix from Big Sky Fest.
Last edited by thefunkylama; 08-06-2012 at 02:22 PM. Reason: CURSING IS IMPORTANT TO ME.
If it is like picking teams for kickball in 6th grade or whatever then it would depend on who else was available but I bet you'd be picked pretty high as your scars would be useful for intimating opponents, making everybody think we (or at least you) were tough. Also with the broken ankle I figured you'd come with a wheel chair, crutches or at least a stiff cast/boot of some sort and any of these would be very useful as weapons.
So I think I am saying it seems not that scary for me because I have seen and interacted with babies, infants, young children, etc. I know they grow up, etc.
It is also possible that is less scary for me because it is in the hypothetical future right now.
Yay Big Sky Fest mix!
Do you do the "Al Bundy"? If so, how often?
If I had fewer people on ignore I'd probably have some ideas, though.
But I resisted getting an iPod as long as I could and I'm happy with that as they have never worked well with my PCs.
Some people don't want to think about or fiddle with their phone, some people are well entrenched in Apple products. If that is you then an iPhone may work well for you... (but I might suggest getting a 4 or a 4s first, especially since they will be really available around when the 5 comes out).
Anyway, you have more control over an Android phone. If you are particular about how your screen looks, how your phone and apps function, what apps you use for different tasks, etc then you want to be in an Android environment. You won't have complete control (even if you root) but the options are far greater (to be fair there are also less customizable Android phones but there are several good options).
Some Android phones have replaceable batteries; it's really nice to be able to carry around a spare or seven. I don't even know if an iPhone can play .wma, .ogg or .flac files but I know I can. I can play most any video file, too. I can also read every book format I've come across in addition to .pdf, .doc, .xls, etc.
I have some outstanding questions but I have run out of time. I will now yield to the your new master, Warren aka OnlyNonStranger!
What are the differences between hiking in Arizona and hiking around Calgary?
Why did you go to University of North Texas? What did you like about it? What did you dislike?
Last edited by mountmccabe; 08-06-2012 at 05:34 PM.
Ahhh, good ol' UNT. The short answer to this is I went there because they have an amazing music program. Even though I don't play an instrument I knew I would be able to catch quality music acts all over town, which I did.
The long answer? When I was 19 I did a very foolish thing, as many 19 year olds do. I asked a girl to marry me. There was a catch though. I lived in Calgary and she lived in Dallas. I had known this girl for a long time, originally meeting her on a cruise when we were 15. It was easier then too as I lived in Louisiana so it made more sense then. We "dated" off and on for a while I was in Louisiana and later in College Station, Tx. I finally moved to Canada wanting to get away from everything. When I moved back to Canada I inevitably became more and more unhappy. I got back in touch with the girl and we started talking again. We went ahead and arranged for her to come visit me. During this visit she lost her virginity to me and I proposed to her. The funny thing is that I actually don't remember proposing to her but she sure as hell did. I went along with it as I was unhappy and thought that I loved her. Really, I probably only loved the idea of her. After much deliberation it was decided that I would move down to Texas and we would start our life together.
Upon moving to Texas I realized many things. Most importantly, that she was nuts and that I had to get out of the relationship. While we were together I was attending community college, trying to salvage what I had done to my GPA while in College Station. I applied to two schools UTD and UNT. Got into both and decided to go to UNT for the reason that I wrote above. So long story short, I moved out of the apartment we shared and moved to Denton without telling her. It was a very immature move but being the coward that I was I felt it would be the best. Which for me, it was.
Crazy women: Why do men love them?
Because they're great in bed.
Which characters, tv shows and other forms of media have influenced your sense of humor? Did any of these influences have an immediate effect?
I would much rather to be cremated though I haven't put much thought into the matter. I do know that instead of a funeral I would like to have a celebration of life, preferably with a lot of booze and a good live band.
I pay more attention to Canadian politics that I do to American politics as I can actually vote here, unlike when I lived in the states. I vote Liberal, even though my vote doesn't technically matter. My riding is very Conservative.
Naturally, I hate Harper and think he is driving this country far away from what we used to stand for. We're relying upon one specific industry entirely too much and the subsidies we're giving is ridiculous. The money he has taken away from the sciences is also ridiculous.

Panthers take pair from South Adams
Eastbrook capitalized on a slew of early errors by South Adams, scoring seven runs en route to a 10-9 win in the first game of a varsity baseball double header Saturday at Harry F. Anderson Field. The Panthers led from the outset in game two and swept the twin bill by taking the nightcap 10-7.
The games were scheduled to take place at Eastbrook, but were moved to South Adams after the Starfires made the trip to Grant County only to realize the field was too wet for play. Eastbrook played as the home team in both contests.
South Adams trailed 7-2 after one inning in the first game, and finished with five errors in the field. The Starfires (6-5) outscored Eastbrook 7-3 the rest ...

New Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino watched his team hold Everton to a goalless draw in the Barclays Premier League at St Mary's.The former Espanyol coach, who replaced Nigel Adkins on Friday in a shock move, would have been impressed at how his team fared so soon after his appointment, especially during a one-sided first half, although the better chances fell to David Moyes's team after the break.
The draw hit Everton's hopes of qualifying for the UEFA Champions League. They are five points behind Tottenham Hotspur in fourth, while the point kept Southampton in 15th but four points above the relegation zone.
Southampton dominated the first half and Pochettino must have wondered how his new team did not head into half-time with a substantial lead. Winger Jason Puncheon saw a shot deflected wide while Everton defender Phil Jagielka almost put a cross from the right into his own net, all within the opening 10 minutes. Tim Howard was also at full stretch to turn behind a deflected shot from Gaston Ramirez.
The American was called into action again in the 20th minute to claw away a Rickie Lambert free-kick from 30 yards via a post and then to rush out and claim from Puncheon just as the winger looked to be through. At the other end Saints goalkeeper Artur Boruc was forced into action, saving Steven Naismith's fierce shot.
Howard was then quick to turn round Ramirez's shot after a mazy run. From the resulting corner Lambert saw his header cleared off the line before the ball came back to Jos Hooiveld but the Dutchman could only direct his shot at Howard. The pressure was not off Everton for long and Lambert first forced Howard into a good save and then had a free header from a cross by Luke Shaw but steered it wide.
After the break Everton emerged with more vigour and almost took the lead in the 51st minute on two occasions through Marouane Fellaini. A deep cross fell to the feet of the Belgian but his shot was repelled well by the legs of Boruc. The Everton midfielder had another chance from the resulting corner but his header was straight at the Polish goalkeeper.
Everton were forced into a change when Seamus Coleman suffered a thigh injury and Victor Anichebe came on with Phil Nevile switching to right-back on his 36th birthday but their growing momentum was not lost as Leon Osman saw his rising shot headed over by Maya Yoshida. On 61 minutes Nikica Jelavic had a great chance but got his feet wrong 12 yards in front of goal from Anichebe's cross. That was the Croat's final contribution as he was replaced by Kevin Mirallas after 66 minutes. A minute later Boruc did well to stick out his right hand and save Anichebe's shot after the forward was played in by Fellaini as Everton's pressure continued to grow. Anichebe then crossed to Mirallas, who worked himself some space but could not keep his shot on target.
Southampton were unable to maintain their workrate and movement of the first half but they did create the occasional chance. Lambert's far post header from a corner on 83 minutes brushed the top of Howard's bar. In injury-time Everton broke some late Southampton pressure and Mirallas shot from distance but it was a comfortable save for Boruc.
Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino: "I'm very happy with the performance. The players put in a great effort tonight, and I want to congratulate them on that. Also the fans I'm very proud of, who they are, and how they've taken me in tonight.
"As for the game, we created several chances against a very good Everton side, so we've established how we want to carry forward in the future. I really wanted my players to focus on being offensive against Everton as we really wanted to be attacking-minded, so we're working the long balls and a high defensive line.
"We worked a lot on pressuring them a lot and their attack with how their midfield players link up to attack so we were just concentrating on vertical, high-speed football."
"Everything I was told about Southampton supporters is true, they're very kind and they really support their team so I just want to repay them with honesty and work as I'm very proud to be their manager."
Everton manager David Moyes: "We got better after we had a word at half-time. The chance for Nikica Jelavic was a real big chance but we are a little bit like that at the moment. This time last year we were stealing the goals but it will come.
"We are in a good position and we have as much chance of anyone of getting that fourth spot. Kevin Mirallas and Victor Anichebe made an impact for us and a draw here is not a bad result."
