I have a Counselor Lesson every week with K students. I work with all students during the Tuesday "center" time so I see them in small groups for 12 -15 minutes to work on a specific skill. Each week I will post the title of the Counselor Lesson and post supporting documents, if helpful to you, on this site. This link will give you details of my lessons and the Roosevelt Round-Up (PTA newsletter) will also periodically give you more information. Let me know if you need more information or have feedback on my lessons.
Week 1: Who is Your School Counselor? Getting to know the adults in your school and what they can do for you! Mrs. Clark LISTENS to us when we have a PROBLEM or have a QUESTION and need HELP. She HELPS us HELP ourselves and make GOOD choices. Students took a "field trip" to my office and we discussed what FUN things I have going on in my office besides the classroom lessons they will have every week from me! We concluded out "field trip" by reading and discussing the book "Who is Mrs. Sand-Dollar?" - a story about the school counselor.
Week 2: We reviewed Who is Your School Counselor - someone who LISTENS to us when we have a PROBLEM or have a QUESTION and HELPS us make GOOD CHOICES! What are Potato Points - our rules for listening! With the use of our Mr. Potato Head doll as a reminder - we discussed what good listening "looks like": eyes on the speaker, hands to ourselves, raising our hand to speak, bringing our thinking caps with our ideas and good sharing, ears for listening to others, mouth closed if others are speaking, and feet still and pointed at the speaker. Every week we earn Potato Points for being great listeners in my classroom! This week we started into our Peacewheel - Conflict Management Model at Roosevelt. First up, talking about sharing and taking turns - 1 out of the 9 peacewheel options ---and practiced rock, paper, scissor as a tool to help them with this choice. We then did some examples of when you can use this tool at Roosevelt --- get in line at the same time, want the same seat at a table, deciding on a game at recess with a friend, and even at home with a sibling! I challenged them to use this at home to see if it works -- so Mom & Dad, practice up on your rock, paper, scissor skills at home because they got it and can use it!
Week 3: Putting these concepts into play -- literally. Play time in Mrs. Clark's office during our lesson time today. We had magnets, legos, played kitchen, colored pictures and solved mazes. Students were allowed to choose what they wanted to play with and I listened for the use of our Share & Take Turns choice on our Peacewheel. Students also sampled some of the "fun" they can have during Recess Group in Mrs. Clark's office when I start opening it up to them in a few weeks! Stay tuned for more info on Group....
Week 4: I shared with them how I see them using their manners at school and how I see them sharing & taking turns with others at Roosevelt. I encouraged them to keep using these tools to resolve conflicts because friends like it when we use kind words and actions and not arguing! We watched "Franklin and the Crystal" where Beaver and Franklin learn how arguing can harm friendships and how important sharing is to being a good friend! Sometimes being first in line, captain of the team, or always having to play your game at recess cost you friends... thankfully Beaver and Franklin figured this out and so did my K friends!
Week 5: We've learned about Share and Take Turns – practiced Rock/Paper/Scissor – used that skill in my office playing with their peers – and then watched Franklin and Beaver try to work something out in our video last week. This week we practiced two new choices from our Peacewheel – Please Stop and Walk Away. When someone is doing something we don't want them to do, we practiced putting out our hand like a stop-sign and saying "please stop" in a firm, clear and kind voice. If that person continues we then put our hand again and say "I said, please stop" in that firm, clear and kind voice. We practiced this several times and we even showed examples of the wrong way to do this as well. I modeled the Walk Away strategy and showed some examples of how to use this in different situations such as saying "I'm going to make another choice because I'm not having fun" or "I feel like you are not listening to me so I am going to work at another table" and with quiet feet moving his/her body away from the situation into another spot or activity. I also demonstrated the wrong way to do this. We concluded the activity by demonstrating some examples and having students tell me if it was the right way or wrong way to tell someone to Stop or Walk Away --- they all knew it and showed their teacher what they knew! Bravo!
Week 6: We reviewed the Peacewheel Choices we have been working on and student reported to me how the Rock, Paper, Scissor has been working for them and the "Please Stop" and "Walk Away" strategy at school...and home! We then read the book "Manners on the Playground" and talked about what they are doing on the playground and how they use good manners at school and home! I showed them some social scenario cards and asked them how manners were used or not used in these situations and if their new tools- Rock, Paper, Scissors, Please Stop, Walk Away - could help them in the situation! *This book can be checked out in our Roosevelt Counselor Resource Library.
Week 7: This week we are discussing talk it out & wait and cool off- another important part of our peacewheel! We watched Franklin talk it out with his friends and "cool off" in "Franklin is Bossy". Franklin's friends let him know they are tired of him telling them what to do all the time and making up the rules – at first he is mad but then he realizes he is being Bossy and says I'm sorry to his friends. We see his friends take a break from him one day when they are really frustrated with him and then continue to be his friend and encourage him to work on his bossiness the next day … good friends talk things out, help and forgive each other, and say I'm sorry when for unkind words, frustrations with friends, or making a poor choice.
Week 8: Time for me to see their work in class! This week I helped in classroom centers while students did their normal "work" and I was able to see how they were progressing with their academic skills, listening to adults and peers, following directions, and working in small groups. I love what I am seeing!!!
Week 9: This week we are discussing apologize - another important part of our peacewheel! We watched Franklin and his friends apologize in "Franklin and the Trading Cards". When friends compete and try to out-do each other to get a special trading card from Franklin, they realize they haven't been a very good friend to Franklin and to each other and say "I'm sorry." We discussed when we know someone "really" means "I'm sorry" and how if the behavior does not stop, others do not accept the "I'm sorry" because they think it will just happen again!
Week 10: This week we are discussing apologize - another important part of our peacewheel! We watched Franklin and his friends apologize in "Franklin and the Trading Cards". When friends compete and try to out-do each other to get a special trading card from Franklin, they realize they haven't been a very good friend to Franklin and to each other and say "I'm sorry." We discussed when we know someone "really" means "I'm sorry" and how if the behavior does not stop, others do not accept the "I'm sorry" because they think it will just happen again!
***RECESS GROUP Starts this week --- On Thursdays, 1st recess K students can come in and play!!!
Week 11: I was in the classroom this week and we played a Feelings Memory Game. While we played this game, we practices two more peacewheel choices of Talk it Out & Make a Deal. We practiced saying: "I feel ____ when ________________" and "How about if we do ________________ and then we can do ______________________?" In our small center rotation groups, we practiced using these two choices as ways to solve the problem.
Week 12 & 13: We reviewed those "I statements" we started to practice last week and stopped to talk about the difference between Tattling and Telling. Wise Owl helps us with his WHO rules! WHO knows the rules about Tattling vs. Telling? We watched and discussed a video called "Wise Owl Says: When Telling isn't Tattling". We discussed the questions: Will it help anyone? Is someone in danger? Do you need an adult to help you solve a problem? If yes -- then you are telling! If you want to get someone in trouble or just tell an adult to so they can solve a problem for you, this is tattling. Students were able to know the difference between small problems they are strong enough to solve on their own using our peacewheel choices and big problems they need to TELL an adult immediately because they need help, get that "uh-oh" feeling, or someone is in danger!

SAN FRANCISCO, CAOctober 10, 2010Scientists at the Gladstone Institute of Virology and Immunology (GIVI) have found that an enzyme associated with the storage of fat in the liver is required for the infectious activity of the hepatitis C virus (HCV). This discovery may offer a new strategy for treating the infection.
More than 160 million people are infected throughout the world, and no vaccine is available to prevent further spread of the disease. Current treatments are not effective against the most common strains in the US and Europe. The study, published in the journal Nature Medicine, shows that the enzyme DGAT1 is a key factor in HCV infection. With several potential DGAT1 inhibitors already in the drug-development pipeline, a treatment for HCV may be possible in the near future.
"Our results reveal a potential 'Achilles heel' for HCV infection," said Melanie Ott, MD, PhD, senior author on the study. "Several DGAT1 inhibitors are already in early clinical trials to treat obesity-associated diseases. They might also work against HCV."
At first glance, the HCV lifecycle is fairly simple. The virus enters the cell. One large protein is produced and cut into several smaller viral enzymes and proteins that build the virus. The RNA genome is copied, and the new RNAs and structural proteins are used to make new virus particles that are released into the blood stream for to infect more cells. These processes were thought to occur at specialized membranes inside the cell. However, recently it has been shown that fat droplets are critically involved.
Fat droplets, which store fat in cells, have become a hot new topic in biology. DGAT1 is one of the enzymes that help to form fat droplets. The Gladstone team, led by Eva Herker, PhD, discovered that HCV infection and viral particle production are severely impaired in liver cells that lack DGAT1 activity.
"DGAT enzymes produce the fat that is stored in the droplets t

Re: What is the reason behind multiple pumps discharging into a common header?12 May 2010 at 1:29pm
Pump piping is an ongoing challenge and a source of problems for many.
In this question, the writer talks about the discharge side of the pump, and this area tends to be less dangerous than the inlet side of the pump.
For multiple pumps discharging into a common header, a number of concepts are worthy of consideration.
1. The size of the discharge piping from each pump must be increased immediately by at least one size from the pump nozzle. This means that the pipe size will already have increased before it reaches the discharge header.
2. The eventual size of the discharge header should be capable of ensuring that the flow velocity within the header does not exceed 10 feet/second at any point in the header.
3. The connection of the pump discharge line to the header should be such that the flow combination minimizes the turbulence in the header. In other words the connections should not be at right angles, but rather angled into the flow in the same direction of the flow.

Ah, the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer.
Or however the sixties song lyric goes.
Today is the first day of my summer vacation – or "vacay" in teenager terminology.
When I was a kid this would have meant that I barreled out the front door with a sword I'd made from a ruler and a Popsicle stick, ready to do battle against the forces of evil and the cat next door.
I climbed trees and played in the dirt and ran around and picked wildflowers and got so dirty that I left a bathtub ring. I picked wild onions and ate them, hid behind trees and jumped out at passing cars making my best pirate face. I practiced my Tarzan yells and baked brown. In short, I wrung every bit of pleasure out of summer.
It was just as hot then as it is now, but I never noticed it. Days were just as long but seemed shorter. I stayed outside until my mother called me in for the night. Then I watched TV and planned what I would do the next day.
Somewhere along the line that has changed and I probably should do something to change it back.
For example.

Rideable train set is the perfect gift for spoiled rich kids
Nothing quite says "rich children" like an indoor, child-sized train set that can move monied young lads around to their heart's content. Regular kids have to settle for tiny, toy train sets that they move around with their hands, but not rich kids! No, they get to ride their train sets.
Just look at this crazy hand-crank locomotive toy. For a cool $4,100 (plus $500 shipping), you get two trains and a 30-foot-diameter track to put them on. They can support kids who weigh up to 100 pounds, and they're propelled via hand cranks. And they'll make your kids obnoxious snobs. Just get them Legos like regular parents.

We've all heard the snarky comment, those who can't do, teach. Well, those who can't play basketball play Small Forward. Now, both of those statements are not entirely true, and I'm really just being hateful. There are some great Small Forwards, but this position gets really weak really fast.Please, blog, may I have some more?

This is a scary thought to think, but the Minnesota Timberwolves may actually become a strong playoff contender for years to come. Blech, still felt weird saying that string of words.

Horsewear Ireland
Rambo Quarter Horse Turnout
For Sale on eBay
Manufacturer: Horsewear Ireland
Model: Rambo Quarter Horse Turnout
Category: Horsewear
Purchase: I bought two of these blankets last fall to replace my Weatherbeeta Landas. Got them online for $214 each.
Likes: The thing I love the most is the FIT. Finally a blanket that actually fits a Quarter Horse. It doesn't hang down to their knees, and the double leg arches allow the blanket to wrap under their bellies. The neck doesn't gape, and the removable neck cover is included. My gelding loves to roll, buck and play and the blanket doesn't budge. The blanket comes with a tail strap, but has D-rings for leg straps if you want them. They wore the blankets all winter 24/7 and no rubs. The colours are lovely and the blanket looks good on.
Dislikes: The only thing I don't like is that the Rambo guarantee doesn't currently apply to the QH line.
Quality: The blankets are beautifully made. Everything is top quality. The blankets are warm without being heavy.
Summary: I love the blankets. Certainly money well spent. They're coming out with a rainsheet version soon and I fully intend to buy them as well. If you have smaller horses and other blankets tend to hang down too far then this is the blanket you want. I've got them on a 15h and a 15.3h QH and a friend has one for her 15.2h Morgan, and they fit them all beautifully.

ance, withdrawal), and (3) consequences to the person and his or her social functioning or surroundings.
The committee was charged to review excessive gambling as "pathological" as determined by the American Psychiatric Association. We were not charged with the task of determining the impact of excessive gambling caused by poor judgment untainted by illness. Although this report focuses on a medical model of gambling problems, readers should note that other models can also illuminate gambling-related excesses. For example, gambling can be understood as one aspect of a much larger problem, namely that a large and increasing number of households have trouble living within their means. For some households, the array of temptations to spend more than they can afford and the pressures to do so from advertising and a culture of conspicuous consumption may overwhelm self-control and skill in managing money. Those who cannot resist the temptation to spend beyond their means tend to be constantly in debt and constantly dealing with the consequences of their improvidence through legal and even illegal means. For some, the problem is credit cards and the Home Shopping Channel. For others, it's gambling or speculating in investments. At-risk people may differ with respect to which type of temptation is most alluring, but the consequences and the social costs to themselves and their friends, family, employers, and creditors are the same regardless. The primary strategy for dealing with the problem of temptation has usually been to limit the availability of stimulants and opportunities. Excessive gamblers may be intemperate because they fail to resist temptation or fail to regulate impulses to act.
Besides the medical model, several other conceptual models and theories have been advanced to explain pathological gambling. These include a general theory of addictions, the reward deficiency syndrome, behavioral-environmental reasons, the biopsychosocial model, and the moral model, among others. Although these models are not directly comparable, according to

John Sharp (bishop)
John Sharp (16 February 1644/5 – 2 February 1714), English divine, Archbishop of York, was born at Bradford, and educated at Christ's College, Cambridge.[1]
Sharp was ordained deacon and priest on 12 August 1667, and until 1676 was chaplain and tutor in the family of Heneage Finch, 1st Earl of Nottingham at Kensington House. Meanwhile he became archdeacon of Berkshire (1673), prebendary of Norwich, rector of St Giles's-in-the-Fields, and in 1681 dean of Norwich.[2]
In 1686, when chaplain to James II, he was suspended for ten months on a charge of having made some reflections on the king, and in 1688 was cited for refusing to read the Declaration of Indulgence.[2] He was described as a "vehement preacher" whose eyes "flamed remarkably".
Under William and Mary he succeeded Tillotson as Dean of Canterbury in 1689, and (after declining a choice of sees vacated by non-jurors who were his personal friends) followed Thomas Lamplugh as Archbishop of York in 1691. He made a thorough investigation of the affairs of his see, and regulated the disordered chapter of Southwell.[2]
He preached at the coronation of Queen Anne and became her Lord High Almoner and confidential adviser in matters of church and state, completely eclipsing Thomas Tenison, the Archbishop of Canterbury. His diary makes it clear that she often confided State business to him, and listened to any objections he made. His diary is a useful source for her reign, and often contradicts Sarah Churchill: unlike Sarah, he maintains that the Queen was devastated by her husband's death ("we both wept"), and that her friendship with Abigail Masham was not a secret (" talked with the Queen of Mrs. Masham, I find she has a true kindness for her"). He welcomed the Armenian bishops who came to England in 1713, and corresponded with the Prussian court on the possibility of the Anglican liturgy as a means of reconciliation between Lutherans and Calvinists. .[2] On the much debated question of whether the Queen favoured the Old Pretender or the House of Hanover, Sharp, although he died before the matter became critical, was certain that she favoured the Hanoverian succession.
He died at Bath on 2 February 1714. At his request the Queen promoted William Dawes to fill the vacant see.
His works (chiefly sermons) were published in 7 volumes in 1754, and in 5 volumes at Oxford in 1829.[2]
Sharp was married, by John Tillotson, at Clerkenwell in 1676 to Elizabeth Palmer of Winthorpe, Lincolnshire. Of his fourteen children, only four survived him. Of these, John Sharp (1678–1727) of Grafton Park represented Ripon in Parliament from 1701 to 1714; he was a commissioner of trade from 15 September 1713 to September 1714, and died on 9 March 1726–7; in Wicken church, Northamptonshire, there is a monument to him and his wife Anna Maria, daughter of Charles Hosier of Wicken Park. Thomas (1693–1758), the youngest son, was a churchman and the biographer of his father.[3] The English surgeon William Sharp and his brother the abolitionist Granville Sharp were sons of Thomas.

Worth Every Penny!!
Douglas from South Salem, NY– Verified Buyer
I bought two 10 liter crocks and one 15 liter and they have exceeded my most optimistic expectations. To date I have made 11 quarts of sauerkraut, and all three crocks are currently filled with cabbage and are in various stages of fermentation. Everyone loves the kraut and we have to be carefull to save some for ourselves. I have also fermented 7 gallons of pickles.
Perfect crock
Fred Peterson from Whitney Point, NY– Verified Buyer
When I ordered this crock I was somewhat hesitant, as it's pretty pricey for a piece of pottery ordered sight unseen. I shouldn't have worried. It came very, very well packaged, and arrived in perfect condition. The first batch of sauerkraut is sitting in it fermenting.
Katie from Coldstream, BC– Verified Buyer
I am very happy with my product and with the short amount of time it took to ship to my address. I did not realize, however, that there would be shipping charges for orders outside of the U.S. and would like if you could let shoppers know this somewhere on the website. Thanks very much the product was worth the additional price anyways!

You guys have quite the bromance going. Maybe you can use the gopro during your makeout session, too.
You guys have quite the bromance going. Maybe you can use the gopro during your makeout session, too.
Steve, you wanna try the board out again on saturday morning?
I've been passing the board around a bit for people to test run. Right now it's at work buddy's house ill see if we can set something up. I promised him a few weeks/ sessions with it. I'll get back to you and see if things line up. Have you ever surfed at 9th west on Folly? It's a decent spot, not touristy and no big rocks in the water like the washout. I have been eye balling this weekends forcast with that storm pushing in. Just got a pair of dark fin gloves I have wanting to try out.
Have you considered hooking up a small battery powered trolling motor to the kon-tiki log? Bet it needs one.
Let me know what you think about the gloves. I'd recommend busting out a bunch of push ups to get your paddle strength up over the gloves.
The leash plug held in perfectly in 3ft surf. Very happy about that. I'm thinking the gloves will help catch the ones I just missed.
Just step up your paddle game Steve.

Show Her That Video
On youtube that shows word for word Obama and Romney saying the same stuff if you have a way to do so. If not, make a list of all the things the two rats agree on. Then give her some background on Romney such as how Bain owns clearchannel, and how he is backed by Goldman Sachs, (just like Obama) Ask her how she thinks Romney is any different from Obama and show her how she's misinformed. THEN give her a Ron Paul brochure! She might get it or it might just at least start her thinking!

Not sure how so many of you luck out and get a multirotor that works right out of the box with practically no effort other than to assemble it.
It is so overwhelming to get something you pay so much money for and it nearly becomes an exorcise in frustration just to get it to do something you tell it to do in the first hour of plugging in the power.
I am at my whits end with the whole thing and am so disappointed that with the amount of money these things cost there is so much work that still needs to be done to it other than putting it together.
This is my third attempt at getting a multirotor to do more than drain batteries while programming, tuning, reprogramming, retuning, cursing, spitting and generally being a large, expensive and aggravating paper weight. I have built 3. All different, all new and each one was a promised "put it together and fly" deal and all they do is beep, tweet and sometimes even turn the props but no flights, no hovers, no nothing. But I see all these videos of people flying their multi and I see all these helpful threads but so far nothing has been accomplished.
I am honestly not an idiot. I am honestly good at building and making things work. But so far this has been THE most disappointing hobby I have taken on yet.
|Jan 11, 2013, 07:47 PM
Today's a good example for me:
Took the F550 out to the airfield to fly, had just repositioned my video tx for better reception, had enough batteries for about an hour and a half of flying. Get to the field, my car almost gets stuck driving in, then finally gets stuck. Spent an hour getting it unstuck. Spent an hour shovelling paths from the car to the tables to the clubhouse. Got the F550 up in the air, recording my buddy take off his bix. 5 seconds later recorded my buddy crashing his bix. He forgot to do a preflight and he had lost his rudder. Spent the rest of the 10 minutes on that battery flying around checking the video reception, was decent, noticed some problems that i have to fix. Even tested the failsafe RTH from 200 feet away, worked great. Brought her in to land on the table, 3 feet before i get there one of the motors quits and she flips into 3 feet of snow. Thankfully no damage. Something was loose, got it working again. Decided to call it quits till i can figure out for sure. Tried to get the car out. Stuck. Spent another hour with ropes, chains, etc and my buddy towed me out of the field.
Back at the shop now. So out of 3.5 hours at the field, i spent 3 of them shovelling, got a 10 minute flight in, and now i gotta figure out what the problem is
Frustrating, yes, disappointing? no
My F550 was an ARF and it did take me the better part of a day to get the programming figured out, but she works fine, has its quirks like anything else, but the NAZA + GPS work great for the most part
|Jan 11, 2013, 07:49 PM
I'm pretty sure that your problems are related to your choice of trans/rec.
There is nothing wrong with the Frsky stuff.
It's just different, and requires a bit more knowledge than the standard brands.
I'm a Spektrum/JR man myself (had to get in a plug).
If you'll click over to my blog, you'll find that about 6 or 8 posts down I saved a link to a Frsky mega index.
Check that out.
Also, if you're patient, I'm sure a Frsky fan will eventually notice your dilemma and try to help.
Good luck!

Pointy Things...
With my windy field, I'm afraid if one of them hit before the others, I'd see a quick flip...
|Jan 11, 2013, 07:59 PM
Don't Get Frustrated...
We all have our moments.
This hobby is more patience building than golf.
The "put it together and fly pilots" are like the 99th percentile.
I know I'm not one of them...
Like I told you in a previous post, I'm no good to you with Frsky.
Frsky pilots: get over here and help before we lose a brother flyer!

It was beautiful, still and sunny this morning so I thought I would mount my camera and do a quick test flight before work.
Armed great, took off in Attitude mode after about ten feet up I switched to GPS, hovered in place for about 20 seconds then gave it some throttle, forward flight and everything was going great. But I noticed that the throttle wasn't reacting to my input the way I thought it should so I started to bringing it back to land and when I gave it a little yaw the throttle increased significantly, I lowered the throttle almost to zero just to arrest the ascent, it started to come down I gave it a little throttle because I didn't want it to shut off being below 10%, then the power started to oscillate up and down.
What would cause this?
I flew it this afternoon, not in direct sunlight and it seemed to be fine???

GW, where are you?
Share some of your newfound knowledge with this guy before he commits seppuku.
And you'd better not be staying quiet so that you can bid on his equipment...
|Jan 11, 2013, 08:56 PM
When i put together my super sky surfer, i likely put 60 hours into the build and getting the electronics working, she flies so great now it was totally worth it, and i don't even have the RTH figured out yet! i figure that'll be another 10-20 hours
if it's any consolation, getting through these obstacles is what makes you a tried and true RC pilot

I might even have to refuse to help him anymore.
He PMs me like I'm a doctor who makes house calls!
See how this can have a humorous side?
You'll see that it's worth it...
Be patient (it's a virtue)
You aught to go back and see how ragged out I was when a new Naza was DOA.
When I figured I'd done all that I could, and was returning it for warranty consideration, several of the fellow posters spent forum time with me drowning our sorrows and solving the world's problems...

Yesterday Girl (German: Abschied von gestern, "Farewell to Yesterday") is a 1966 New German Cinema film directed and written by Alexander Kluge. The film is based on the short story Anita G. (1962), which is also by Alexander Kluge.[1] The film tells the story of Anita G., a young East German migrant to West Germany and her struggle to adjust to her new life.[2] The film won a Silver Lion at the Venice Film Festival, whereas Kluge's next film, Artists Under the Big Top: Perplexed even went on to win the Golden Lion, a political scandal due to its progressive leanings which resulted in no Golden Lions being awarded up to 1979.[3]

SeaTac Airport doubles up on live music
Great news for travelers - live music at SeaTac is doubling up! Port of Seattle, Seattle Music Commission and PlayNetwork have all come together to create the Experience the City of Music Program, which means twice the number of musicians playing in SeaTac, for twice the hours.
"With Sea-Tac Airport providing the first and last impression of Seattle for many travelers, we have a unique opportunity to showcase our region's iconic music culture — and support jobs in the local music industry," said Port of Seattle Commissioner John Creighton.
Forty local musicians will be playing seven days a week, for eight hour periods in multiple locations throughout the terminal. For the 34 million people who pass through the airport each year, this is a huge upgrade from the previous roster of two artists, each playing for four hours.
For detailed schedules, locations, a video of live performances, and how musicians can participate, visit the Sea-Tac Airport Music Initiative page.

HoopsHype Brook Lopez rumors
In the days leading up to the draft in June, rumors circulated that the Bucks were seriously shopping beleaguered veteran center Larry Sanders. A report recently surfaced the Bucks had offered Sanders to the Brooklyn Nets as part of a package deal that would have brought veteran center Brook Lopez to Milwaukee. Brooklyn reportedly rejected the offer. Racine Journal-Times
One of the final straws for Nets ownership came around the trade deadline. Kidd advocated for a trade with the Bucks that would sent Brook Lopez and Mirza Teletovic to Milwaukee for the deeply troubled Larry Sanders and Ersan Ilyasova. The suggestion, mostly about Kidd's belief that Lopez couldn't fit in his system, was considered and rejected by the Nets brass. NetsDaily
Brook Lopez will be with the Nets in Orlando for Summer League next month, where he is expected to work his way back from surgeries on his right foot and left ankle without playing in games. "He's doing good," Nets GM Billy King said Wednesday. "He was lifting the other day. He'll be in Orlando with us, starting to progress to the court on July 1." SNY Nets
But the boot is off and he started upper-body work last week. Basketball activities are still far off, he said, but Lopez fully expects to be ready for training camp. With the Nets. "This is where I want to be. I want to be back," Lopez said. "I wish I could be out there, absolutely. I'm just finally happy to be able to travel again and support the team, be on the bench." New York Post
Did the NBA move too quickly in eliminating the center position on the All-Star ballot? At least one NBA executive believes so. "I wouldn't call it a renaissance because they don't play the position quite the same way, but the position is stocked with young quality players," he said, ticking off Andre Drummond, DeMarcus Cousins, DeAndre Jordan and Jonas Valanciunas coming up behind Joakim Noah, Dwight Howard, Brook Lopez, Al Jefferson, Roy Hibbert and Marc Gasol. Bleacher Report
The center packed on more muscle than ever in the offseason, telling the Daily News he was up to a career-high 290 pounds as he tried to build a body to bang with the likes of Dwight Howard. But he soon sprained his ankle and fractured a foot, leading to separate surgeries that currently has him moving around with a walking boot and a cast. "We're going to change how we approach him, maybe with his weight," GM Billy King said in an interview on WFAN. "He maybe got too heavy. We're going to try to modify that as well and do some of things to take the pressure off his foot as well." New York Daily News
Bill Simmons is out with his annual list of 30 worst contracts and although Amare Stoudemire, and not Joe Johnson, is at the top of the list, Simmons has three current Nets -- Johnson, Deron Williams and Brook Lopez in the top 21 -- a possible future Net, Marcus Thornton at No. 11. In his final tally, Simmons has D-Will at No. 5 and Joe Johnson at No. 4 We've all read what Simmons thinks of those two, not to mention Billy King, so let's focus on what Grantland's founder thinks of the Nets target, Thornton. Not much love there as well. NetsDaily
Brook Lopez isn't a doctor, but he's dealt with enough issues with his right foot he didn't need one to tell him what had happened when the X-rays came back after he awkwardly fell on it during the Nets' loss to the 76ers in December. "I've seen enough before," Lopez said Sunday night at halftime of the Nets' 93-81 win over the Pelicans, "to recognize that line on the X-ray." New York Post
Lopez was sitting on a chair inside Barclays Center's interview room, meeting with the media for the first time since suffering his season-ending injury. It has only been in the last few days he has been allowed to leave his house on a regular basis, after being mostly bedridden for the past several weeks following surgery early last month. He admitted the hardest part has been being stuck in bed with little to do but think about his current situation. "Yeah, I mean you can only sleep so much," he said with a weak smile. "I tried to read a lot, write and draw and stuff like that. "But you do get to thinking. It's inevitable. You try to focus on the positives. In my case, I just go crazy if I dwell on that stuff for too long." New York Post
Lopez, at 7-0, underwent surgery again in January. Doctors reconstructed his foot to re-distribute the weight and the pounding he sustains. There are absolutely no guarantees but Lopez is stridently optimistic. "It's going to work," Lopez said this week in his first public comments since his Jan. 4 operation. "I'm definitely thinking that way. Some people say, 'If this doesn't work …' I won't think that. I'm definitely thinking the other way." New York Post
Walton predicted an emotional down time for Lopez. But he insisted a huge ally is Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov. "This is where playing for a great owner like Prokhorov, who is willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done, is beneficial," Walton said. "Brook will go through all the emotions of, 'This is my fault, I'm letting the team down.' "You can't panic, can't go crazy and start blaming everybody. You've got to get healthy," Walton said. "Nobody can predict health." New York Post
King is fond of Lopez and says the team is not looking to deal him. But he also acknowledged the need to scrounge up some draft picks after sending so many to Boston. "We are not shopping Brook Lopez," King told Grantland last week. "Our goal is to get Brook as healthy as possible. But if deals present themselves, we've got to look at them. If we can get draft picks back at some point, that would help." Grantland
King is confident the Nets could play this way with Lopez, in part because of his shooting from the center spot. But even he acknowledges meshing everyone and staying "small" would be a challenge. "Brook is a great scorer," King says, "but now, when we're smaller, defensively we are a little better." Grantland
Shaun Livingston appears to have learned from filling in for Williams earlier this season, playing his second straight strong game in the Williams' absence. And while Williams sat out Monday and got a cortisone shot and platelet-rich plasma injections in both ankles Tuesday, Brooklyn's team doctor doesn't expect him to need surgery or miss much time. "I can't divulge a ton, obviously, but what I can say about Deron is that he's a worker. And I just think — as with our other player, Brook Lopez — has just suffered a little bit of bad luck in regard to his ankles,'' Dr. Riley Williams said on SiriusXM NBA Radio. "What I can say is that I don't think there's anything going on with him that's a serious issue over the long-term, and the guy wants to play. New York Post
On Tuesday, the NBA approved a $5.25 million Disabled Player Exception for the Nets to help cover the loss of Lopez, out for the rest of the season with a broken foot that required surgery. The Nets have until March 15 to use the exception. But to do so would come at a hefty cost, though the exception can be used in a trade. The Nets would need to create a roster spot, and for every $1 million they spend would end up paying $4 million in additional luxury taxes. So a source termed using the DPE "unlikely." New York Post
The Brooklyn Nets were notified Tuesday night that they've been granted a $5.25 million Disabled Player Exception for center Brook Lopez, according to sources familiar with the league's decision. The exception expires March 10. According to ESPN salary cap expert Larry Coon's website, the exception allows the Nets to sign a free agent to a one-year contract for the amount of the non-taxpayer mid-level exception ($5.15 million) plus $100,000, or trade for a player in the final season of his deal who is making no more than $5.25 million. ESPN.com
After the season-ending injury to center Brook Lopez, the NBA has approved a $5.25 million disabled player exception for the Brooklyn Nets, a league source told Yahoo Sports. Yahoo! Sports
For Brooklyn to use the full exception and pay the ensuring luxury-tax bill, it would cost the Nets approximately an additional $20 million on top of the $180 million-plus in roster salary and taxes they're already paying this season. The Nets have until March 10 to use the exception through a free-agent signing or a trade. The Nets have a full roster of 15 players, so they would need to clear a roster spot to make use of the exception. Yahoo! Sports

I realize yesterday's blog post was not very positive. That just goes with the territory of the ups and downs of life I guess.
Today the sun is shining and I made myself get on the elliptical for 30 minutes as well as do 20 minutes of strength training. This is my TNT (tight 'n tone) for the BLC19 since I most likely won't get to this tomorrow. I was losing steam 1/2 way through my elliptical workout today, but I pressed on and finished. I want to be able to build my stamina up so that I can move up to the Intermediate 2 level program on my elliptical. I just need to keep doing it and I will get there. I've done it before and I will do it again.
For those losing steam or those of you who are just discouraged, my advice is to try something new. A new exercise, a new healthy snack or meal, maybe even a different schedule. I am toying around with all of these things to help jump-start myself on a better road to getting fit and healthy. No time like the present to make that change!
It is a dreary, dark and rainy day here in Eastern PA. I've had a difficult time getting motivated to do anything today. My eating habits have not been good and I feel tired. I am fed up with all the 'uns' in my life: unhappy, unfit, unflattering, unable, unacceptable, unaccountable, unachieved, unadaptable, unappealing, uncomplimentary, unattainable, uncertain, unchangeable, unimproved.
I need turn those un's around to read: happy, fit, flattering, able, acceptable, accountable, achieved, adaptable, appealing, complimentary, attainable, certain, changeable, and improved.
Lately I haven't had the motivation or energy to get back into my exercise routine like I have wanted to. I'm going into Week 4 of the BLC19 and I know tomorrow mornings weigh-in there will definitely be a gain on the scale. I am angry with myself. I need to dig deep inside me and find the willpower and motivation that kicked me into gear last year when I lost 10 lbs. Change. I have to change. My bad eating habits, my lack of sleep, my lack of a firm schedule around the house and my lack of planning.
Although I am tired today and just wanted to lay in bed and read a book, I forced myself to get on the elliptical for 30 minutes. I still feel tired, but am glad I did some exercise. My entire family was sick and my 5 year old is just getting over it today. I'm just hoping this tiredness isn't a sign of me coming down with the sinus/cold/coughing everyone else in my house has had.
This post is kind of a downer.....I know, believe me. I like to post positive, encouraging things. But today I just felt the need to get the negativity out so I can focus on the positive and move on. I hate that I know what I need to do, but don't do it. I'm more than frustrated with myself. So here's to starting week 4 of BLC19 and making the remaining weeks much more prosperous than the 1st 3 weeks have been for me. Looking forward.....
Weigh-In Day.....1.4 lbs lost. Small steps, small victories. I am happy with that and hoping for another pound next week.
I did my TNT today because Thursdays are one of my busiest days of the week. I also did 30 minutes on the elliptical, but I did not do as full-force of a workout that I usually do. It was a dreary and damp day and I was lucky to even motivate myself to do the 1 hour of working out that I did. That is a victory; just getting done what I needed to. I also have 100 fitness minutes for May already, so that is kind of making me smile
If you're doing the BLC and didn't lose this week, DO NOT GET DISCOURAGED! Just focus on your eating and get that exercise in and the results will start to show!
(S)pecific- (M)easurable- (A)ttainable- (R)ealistic- (T)rackable
Over the next 12 weeks I would like to make a habit of exercising on my elliptical 3 x's a week or more for 30 minutes each time. I would like to incorporate SP strength training videos 3 x's a week (or more) so I can get toned and build strength. I need to focus on eating healthier and not giving into the junk. Freggies as snacks would really help me lower my weight if I could just reach for them instead of the higher calorie goodies. I also need to get back in the habit of filling up the 'pitcher' of water daily and trying to make that water disappear by the end of each day.
When I get control of my eating habits and make exercise a part of my routine, I know I will lose the 10 lbs I want to during this 12 week challenge. I will need the support and motivation from my team mates and will return the same to them.
Lastly, I need to remind myself that it takes time to put on the pounds and it will take time to get rid of them. I just need to focus and concentrate on the goal. I must be easy on myself when I mess up and get 'back on the horse' to continue on this healthy journey.
Best Wishes to ALL of the BLC19 Teams! You Can Do This!
of The Biggest Loser Challenge #19 (aka BLC19).
I went on a 40 minute walk with my dog and had to do the TNT (Tight 'N Tone) Thursday challenge today because tomorrow I will not be home enough to do it (I hope that is okee-dokee?) After I entered my fitness minutes for the day, I decided to make myself a little avatar online:
The Tight End bit is the 'Inter-Team' I am on within the Teal Troopers, my BLC Team this round. I was a Crimson Butterfly in BLC17, so I wish my former team mates much success this round! This challenge runs for 12 weeks, so hopefully by the middle of July I will be 10+ pounds less!
My Goals This Round:
1-Drink 64 ozs water daily
2-Get in at least 10 mins of exercise daily
3-Do the TNT every week
4-Make healthy eating choices
5-Workout on the elliptical at least 3x's a week for 30 mins each time
