Penn State University researchers found that children were far more likely to eat vegetables if they were also offered a spice-flavored dip than if they were offered vegetables alone.
In fact, having the dip swayed children who previously had rejected the same vegetable, according to a news release.
Jennifer Savage, an associate director of the Center for Childhood Obesity Research, and colleagues found that children were three times more likely to refuse eating vegetables alone then if the same veggie was paired with a reduced-fat flavored dip.
The same children were twice as likely to reject a vegetable without a dip than it it were served with plain dip.
The researchers, which published their work in a recent issues of the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, used 34 children between the ages of 3 and 5.
The children were first offered a plain vegetable to gauge their acceptance.
Then they were offered the same vegetable but with dip, and their responses recorded.
The more times children are offered a distasteful vegetable, the more likely they are to consume it.
"Repeated exposure is a way to get kids to like new foods," Savage said in the news release. "This has been demonstrated in previous studies. But first you have to get them to taste the vegetable. Plus, the servings do not need to be huge—the key may be to start by offering really small portions."
In as few as four tastings, the preschoolers consumed ore of the disliked vegetable when it was paired with a flavored dip than when served alone.
The findings may be critical since less than 10 percent of 4- to 8-year-olds consume the U.S. Department of Agriculture recommended daily servings of vegetables, according to the release.
In fact, about one-third of all children eat no vegetables in a typical day.
The study involved carrots, cucumbers, celery, green beans, red peppers and yellow squash.

This post is from Dr John Bissell, a physicist researching tipping points in mathematical systems for the project.
In a conference that had largely focused on `tipping points' in human society, especially those involving the spread of `buzzwords', `innovation' and `trends', Prof Richard Law's talk on ecological dynamics (for those who might not have a clue as to what ecological dynamics means this rather humorous rap might help) acted as an important reminder of the role `tipping points' might play in natural systems.
Perhaps the most classic–if not defining–example of a `tipping point' is the fold bifurcation, and Law began his discussion here. Broadly speaking, fold bifurcations occur when changes in a system's underlying parameters alter the number of its steady-states (solutions to the system that stay constant over time), for example, if the prevailing steady-state is destroyed, then the whole system may need to rapidly reconfigure to a new and often quite different equilibrium. These kinds of catastrophic transitions can be particularly important because they tend to exhibit what's called hysteresis. Indeed, once `tipped', large reverse changes to the governing parameters may be needed to return a system to its original steady-state. Law illustrated some transitions of this kind in terms of both desertification of scrubland following grazing by cattle, and the collapse of fish stocks due to over-fishing.
Another `tipping point' mechanism in ecological systems is the onset of chaos, which Law described using an example taken from the population dynamics of the Colorado potato beetle. In this case, small modifications to the survival rate of beetle larvae can lead to otherwise stable numbers of adult beetles oscillating erratically between relatively small populations and sudden large outbreaks. This kind of chaotic dynamic is notoriously difficult to predict.
From Law's discussion it seems that ecological systems can not only exhibit `tipping point' dynamics, but that such behaviour may have significant implications for our understanding of the natural world. However, as Law pointed out in the conclusion to his talk, the evidence for `tipping-points' is subject to ongoing debate, and warning signals of their onset are difficult to quantify. Nevertheless, areas of scientific uncertainty are often those which best lend themselves to further scrutiny, and I look forward to hearing of, and possibly participating in, future researches on the ecological `tipping-point' theme.

A few weeks ago, I cried. And I don't mean a 'boo hoo, whoa is me' cry. I cried as if my world had come to an end, and metaphorically it did.
I have four children, three boys and a girl, ages 18, 14, 12 and 3. My 18-year-old and I have parted ways and it wasn't on the best terms. Suffice it to say that at some point between going off to college and his actual departure was a proverbial 'F you!' shared by us both.
The particulars behind our parting are irrelevant. The point is that my relief and freedom resulted from being forced out of my self-imposed prison. As I cried, I allowed myself to say what was on my heart without judgment and I cannot believe what came out of my mouth! During the moments when I was sobbing and wailing uncontrollably, it felt as if I had reached the seventh circle of hell and had a decision to make – leave or stay. I chose to leave hell.
In the end, I was shaking, stuttering and gasping for air. In fact, the feeling was eerily familiar. Once I let go of my need to feel self-pity and anger, I saw how I unconsciously created the outcome between my son and I, and why the details of our fight were irrelevant. Although I was quite embarrassed, I felt a relief I had not felt since I was 12 years old.
Backstory: When I was 11, my dad advocated for my sisters and I to get bused into a predominately white school after I received a double promotion, skipping fifth grade entirely. We were accepted and then it began: a white boy named Daniel teased, tormented and hit me all day, everyday. "Hey ugly! What's wrong with your family – welfare isn't enough?! Why don't you get some new clothes – geez!" The black and white students laughed. Then hit and kicked me. I stopped saying anything because the teachers didn't do anything and the kids just kept laughing. I was afraid to hit him back because my daddy would kill me for getting suspended from that white school he worked so hard to get us into. My anger was boiling, and I could have killed that boy.
The truth is, my family was poor and on welfare. I wore the same pants every day; they were clean and so was I, but that didn't matter. My mother is Korean and didn't know how to press my 'nappy' hair so my it was thick and coarse. I ate kimchi every day and the other kids teased me for having bad breath (I could have used a stick of Orbit then). No matter how pretty I tried to look or how smart I was, I felt like the ugliest, dumbest 'thing' on this planet. One day, after two years of being bullied and pretending like I didn't care, I came home and cried so hard that I didn't remember falling asleep.
All I remember is waking up and the sun was really bright in my room. I looked around my room – which was really the dining room – and saw my two sisters asleep. The apartment 'felt' big and I felt weightless. I thought I was dead, but to my dismay I was still alive. I sat up in the bed and looked down at my comforter and said something like, "Fine, God. This is my life. If you are real, then just let me have peace at school for one day, just one day."
I got up and got ready for school. The day felt different, but I didn't make much of it. I went to class and, as usual, Daniel came over to punch me. I looked him in the eyes and said, "Danny, not today. Leave me alone for just one day." Daniel looked at me strangely and left me alone. That day, I entered a contract with myself – the Universe, God, whatever makes sense to you – and vowed to give my children all of the self-esteem they could ever use, make sure there were no external markers that would target them for harassment and give them permission to stand up for themselves, verbally or physically, if they were ever threatened.
When I cried a few weeks ago, I released a lot of anger and hate I held towards Daniel nearly 30 years later. I also learned that:
- I need to cry more.
- God is always with me. He just likes to play hide and seek. His rules are different thought. He hides in front of you and when you are ready to find him, he magically appears.
- I am not the center of my children's universe. In fact, I am not the center of anyone's universe; I am just a character in their movie.
- I carry too much weight of the world on my shoulders and need to give some of it back.
- I create my joy and pain. In order to have power over my life, I must take responsibility for what I create.
- I am a good person; plus or minus the moments I am in bitch mode. And even then, I am still a good person.
- Even though I am on a path of enlightenment, that path is long as hell. *Note to self: work on patience.
- My disappointment comes from trying to deal with reality as I think it should be instead of how it really is.
I am taking in my new-found freedom and my adjustment is coming slowing but surely. Here is where I am now:
- I am still angry with my son but less than before.
- I cry more now, but it's not overwhelming.
- I am allowing people to carry their own bag of crap because my bag is full.
- I am more comfortable with losing the things I thought I loved; I never truly owned them anyway.
- I am transitioning and unsure where I will end up. I do trust that I will be where ever I am supposed to be and that feels exciting.
- I am working on my patience but still get PMS.
Have you ever had a good cry? Do share your story and this blog with others. It is amazing how relief from our own suffering is lifted when we know we are not alone.
Pleasant journeys…

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Asian-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) conference in Hawaii the

political itinerary, but reflects a much deeper and more fundamental
shift in the region.
EAS has expanded in its short existence to include almost every country
in the region, and Washington has not only reversed its longstanding
wariness of multilateral East Asian forums but it has embraced EAS
specifically and deliberately. The United States intends to leverage EAS
to be a central pivot of policy for the region. And so while the course
and result of the summit itself may differ little from any other
multilateral forum in the region, Obama's inaugural attendance is
emblematic of American strategy to address a much deeper reality.
Heavily dependent on maritime commerce since before its founding and now
to both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans>, the United States is drawn to
Asian affairs through both geography and economic interest. In 1980,
transpacific trade rose to equal transatlantic trade for the first time
in history and by 1990 was half again higher. The Japanese and wider
Asian economic crises that followed slowed but did nothing to reverse
the overall trend. The enormity of and macro-trajectory of Asian
economic activity is something the United States cannot ignore.
In fact, it is really the decade since the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks that
has been the anomaly. The U.S. obviously never left the region, but its
attention has been elsewhere. With the U.S. focus on the wars in Iraq
and Afghanistan, China found a vacuum in which it could maneuver just as
Russia did in its own periphery - where it had the freedom to maneuver

That, more than anything else, is the significance of everything the
U.S. has been up to in the region: rebalancing and rationalizing its
military presence in the region, strengthening its engagement and
involvement with longstanding partners and allies and signaling to
everyone that Washington is back.
And whatever the American intention, the unavoidable 800 lb gorilla in
the room - both figuratively and literally - is China. [I know this is
an American analogy - any suggestions?] Obama's formal address to the

This is the fourth year the company has sponsored this program and the Cleveland site plans to donate 10,000 pounds of food to needy families in Bolivar County.
Faurecia and its employees have provided more than 1.3 million meals since the program began in 2010.
"September 6 was our first day and we've already gotten 1,500 pounds of food," said Richard Kostal, human resources director at the Cleveland site. "This is kind of how we help out during the holidays. It's an awesome opportunity for us. I am so glad that we are fortunate enough to give back,"
Throughout September, the company's employees are challenged to collect the highest quantity of non-perishable food items to help fight hunger.
"Hunger is widespread, it affects the kids that are in your classroom and the family that lives across the street from you. The food drive helps out a lot of people in our community," added Kostal.
Faurecia also contributes monetary donations. For each site that meets its collection goal, the company pledges to donate $500 to the sites local food bank partner.
The site that collects the most meals per employee each week will receive an extra $1,000 donation for its food bank.
Faurecia is further pledging $5,000 for one site in the U.S./Canada and one site in Mexico that collects the most meals per employee.
"We raise a lot of money by doing various activities inside of the plant. On Fridays, we allow our employees to pay $1 to wear any color T-shirt that they like. We use that money towards the food drive," said Kostal.
A $1 donation can provide three meals. Cash donations are used to secure food from local grocery stores.
"Vowell's marketplace has given us some bulk pricing, so that we can get the most bang for our buck," added Kostal.
The company has also developed a partnership with local companies to aid with their goal for the year.
"Belkin has a FUELS drive bin. Anyone in the community who would like to donate could go by and drop off non-perishable items at Belkin, the 7-11 convenient store on Sharpe Street and Vowell's marketplace," added Kostal.
Faurecia works directly with the Bolivar County Community Action Agency; the agency aids in food distribution after the drive.
"We work with them because they have a huge influence on the community, and they are able to service the entire county. BCCAA is a good organization to work with," said Kostal.

BILL ZWECKER: Globe voters love 'Argo,' Adele and all that 'Django'
By Bill Zwecker January 13, 2013 10:36PM
70th Annual Golden Globe Awards - Show
Updated: February 15, 2013 6:26AM
From the very start of the Golden Globe Awards Sunday night, it was clear the upcoming — far more important — Academy Awards are likely going to provide more surprises than usual.
While the buzz for Tommy Lee Jones as best supporting actor has been very strong, the Hollywood Foreign Press voters went with Austrian star Christoph Waltz — like Jones, a previous Globe and Oscar winner.
A major Hollywood Foreign Press insider, reached Sunday night, texted a possible reason for for the actor from Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained": "The HFPA LOVES Christoph. Tommy Lee Jones doesn't court them, as he doesn't court anyone in the press — foreign or domestic."
The source added, "The Hollywood Foreign Press has been in love with Christoph — even before the rest of America discovered him in 'Inglorious Basterds.' "
A second text added, "The HFPA also loves Tarantino, so that was a factor."
Considering Waltz was also competing with his "Django Unchained" co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, a second source added, "Waltz's win is all the more amazing, since you generally would think they would split the pro-'Django' vote.
"Of course, considering you have something like 80 voters in the Hollywood Foreign Press, all it takes is one or two votes."
† The affection the Hollywood Foreign Press has for Tarantino was proven when voters gave him the screenplay award at the Globes. "Quentin's win tonight means a lot of Oscar voters are going to go back and read his screenplay — giving him a better chance at winning the original screenplay Oscar," said a longtime Academy member.
LOOKING TO OSCARS: The Golden Globes are always looked at as a precursor to the Academy Awards — and the win by "Les Miserables" in the musical/comedy category certainly gives it a major boost in its Oscar race for best picture. The same goes for Hugh Jackman, now seen as the leading competition for Daniel Day-Lewis' "Lincoln."
However, considering that "Argo" and Day-Lewis won drama categories at the Globes, it's clear this is a true horse race for the Oscars, since both films and actors will be competing in the same category.
"Clinton's enthusiastic support for the film gives Steven a huge boost for the Oscars," texted one of the biggest producers in Hollywood not affiliated with either Spielberg or "Lincoln.""Hollywood — and Oscar voters
in particular — adore the Clintons, both Bill and Hillary, and his appearance at the Globes to support "Lincoln" will definitely have an impact. … when the voting is expected to be very close," added a second observer, on the scene at the Beverly Hilton.
However, the HFPA honored only Day-Lewis from that film. Said one observer, "They, the Hollywood Foreign Press, are much more into international stories. ... Hence the spotlight — and Globes — for 'Argo.' "
HANGING OUT: Reportedly, the seating of Robert Downey Jr. and Mel Gibson at the same table was not an accident. "At a party where an enormous amount of drinking takes place, it's good to have a couple of guys sitting together to support each other in their sobriety," said a veteran Hollywood publicist.
Both were at Jodie Foster's table — as Downey was there to present her with the Cecil B. DeMille Career Achievement Award.
Sources at the Globes were unanimous in reporting the room was overwhelmed by Foster's not-so-subtle "outing" of herself in her deeply moving speech. While Foster stressed she remained committed to the right to privacy — even for entertainers in the public eye — no one listening could not understand she was revealing she was a lesbian.
† Tarantino certainly had NO complaints about his seating arrangements at the Globes — at a table adjacent to Sofia Vergara's. "Now that's the best view in the room," Tarantino was overheard saying with a big smile — looking directly at the "Modern Family" actress' backside.
† One observation from inside the inner circle at the Globes: "It was hilarious watching Dax Shepard, who was seated directly behind Daniel Day-Lewis. The whole night he had this 'OMG! What the [expletive] am I doing sitting next to the greatest living actor on the planet?' … It was a riot watching his expression!"
SOUR NOTE? While the ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel exploded with cheers when Adele's name was called out by Jennifer Lopez and Jason Stratham for co-writing and performing the best song "Skyfall" in the most recent James Bond film, several close observers noted Taylor Swift didn't look too happy.
While Swift herself was nominated in that category for "Safe & Sound" from "The Hunger Games," one BZ spy sitting near the singer zinged, "Taylor looked stunned for a second. You could tell she was about to jump up — thinking her name was about to be called. … And then she had this frozen smile on her face as she applauded Adele. But her eyes were definitely NOT smiling."
According to several others in the room, Adele's win was the least surprising win of the night. "It would have been a shock if Adele HADN'T won," emailed one source. "Taylor should have known that."
FUNNY LINE: As he walked across the ballroom at the Golden Globes, Jay Leno quipped, "You know this is quite the party when I'm the least famous person here!
But as far as being a presenter at the Globes, Leno had his doubts. "What? Getting up in front of a bunch of rich people who are eating and more interested in talking to the other rich famous people in the room. That's not exactly the best comedy crowd in the world," Leno quipped.
DEEPLY TOUCHED: "I have to go find her, to thank her," Sally Field was heard saying after she was moved to tears by Anne Hathaway's emotional tribute to Field for being in the forefront of actresses breaking Hollywood stereotypes. The "Les Miserables" winner compared her "Princess Diaries" films (which easily could have stereotyped her) to Field's "The Flying Nun" — which didn't prevent her going on to winning two Oscars, so far.
Of course, the two actresses are both up for Academy Awards in the supporting category.
WARMING UP: The first thing Jennifer Lawrence did when she entered the Golden Globes ballroom — shivering from the cold red carpet outside — was beg, "Please! Get me a coat!" That took no time at all — with about three or four coats suddenly materializing to slip over the actress' shoulders.
Of course, she quickly slipped it off in time to run up to the stage to accept her Golden Globe for best actress in a musical or comedy for "Silver Linings Playbook."
LET'S DO LUNCH: While it often appears the stars and major filmmakers like Spielberg, Tarantino and Affleck are engaged in deep conversation at the Golden Globes — especially as the cameras catch them after commercial breaks — it's not like "you're watching deals being done here," said a veteran producer Sunday night.
"But it's a great place to make a date to make a deal. Someone like a Spielberg or Tarantino may be working on something and suddenly see an actor or actress and think – 'Oh, my God! He or she would be perfect to play that arrogant, deceptive CEO.' "

Second Annual Devils Family BBQ and Fan Fest
Classic barbecue food, music, games for the kids and a chance to chat with your favorite New Jersey Devils – I'd say that's a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. This past weekend the Devils hosted their second annual Devils Family BBQ and Fan Fest at the Prudential Center. It's one of the cool events season ticket holders get to be a part of and a great way to kick off the season.
Anxious fans lined up outside of The Rock waiting to get in and meet their favorite players. They opened up the main concourse of the Prudential Center and let the fans roam. Lunch was served in the Fire & Ice Lounges. If you were lucky you caught Zach Parise behind the counter suited up to serve with an apron and chef hat. Rumor has it that Ilya Kovalchuk was handing out cookies. Bryce Salvador was taking care of the sodas with Nick Palmieri and Andy Greene.
There was plenty for the younger kids to do between shooting pucks into inflatable nets, hanging out with NJ and dancing with the Devils Dancers. All the players were happy to take pictures, share stories and even play a few rounds of floor hockey with the kids (and some of the adult fans, too). Parise and David Steckel played a couple games of hockey, followed by another game around the corner with Jacob Josefson, Mattias Tedenby, Alexander Urbom and Henrik Tallinder – only a few men short of a Swedish National team. Dainius Zubrus and NJ were hanging around the inflatable goalie nets watching our youngest Devils Army members practicing their slap shots.
Lines formed for both our veteran players and new additions to the team. Cam Janssen and Adam Larsson were pretty popular, as were Martin Brodeur and Patrick Elias of course. Even Lou Lamoriello and our new coach, Peter DeBoer, made appearances on the concourse. Every where you looked you saw a Devil in their jersey. It was surreal to see them on the concourse and to be honest, kind of weird. You learn a few things about the guys being so close. Did you know that Janssen loves to dance in place? David Clarkson seems tough on the ice but his face lights up when you mention his little girl (who will not be a hockey player). Clarkson is also a huge Jets fan and has a helmet signed by the team. Tallinder is a bit of a goofball, he was caught sneaking into pictures with other players and teasing Tedenby and Josefson when they lost their hockey game. Oh, and Rod Pelley has no front teeth – but you've probably noticed that before.
It's great getting a chance to talk to the players and see them off the ice. Everyone had a great time and made sure to wish their favorite guys good luck during the season. There was tons to do and lots to see. Check out more photos from the BBQ on the Devils Generals Flickr page. Let us know if you find your face!

An entertaining movie poses a challenging question…what effect do children have on a relationship?
The recently-released comedy Friends With Kids highlights the perils of trying to balance love, marriage and the baby carriage without endangering at least one of the three.
It is an issue which is rarely discussed, probably because it sounds selfish to complain that your sex life and/or your sleep life suffered for a period of years when your child or children were young. It would also be embarrassing to admit that during those years, if given the choice between more sex and more sleep, most moms and many dads would choose the sleep.
That, of course, can be a problem for the romance and the marriage. But it's not just the sex that suffers. No one really clocks the fact that certain freedoms fly out the door when a baby comes through that same door. No good parent will ever again be without the niggling concern in the back of his or her mind about the well-being of their child. For a goodly number of years, a couple will not be free to stay out all night, spontaneously board a plane to Vegas or Turks and Caicos, or just lie in bed for a whole Sunday with iPads and Kindles and croissants and pizza.
Even quick trips to the grocery store or for a mani-pedi are no longer an allowable impulse unless your spouse or a sitter have been booked in advance. The joys of having a child are so great that it seems petty to note the loss of spontaneity, but then again, spontaneity is a large part of romance. And "yes," a partner may well stray and somehow feel justified because they were feeling neglected by the other. It not only happens in the movies; it also happens in real life.
Tiger Moms, Helicopter Dads, and Spare the Rod
Another aspect of having a child together is that surprise of surprises you may not always agree on the care and raising of that child. Characteristics that used to be teased about affectionately (like you being a "sleepyhead" or having a "short fuse") now become the battleground over how that will affect the baby.
Things you may never have noticed about the other, like a tendency to be judgmental or to get lost in fantasy football, suddenly take on epic proportions when a child's well being is involved. And, it seems to be genetically coded that a disciplinary parent will marry a lesser disciplinary parent, and then they will battle over who is too soft and who is too tough. And "yes," these battles sometimes do sabotage the marriage and kill love. Clients come in frequently complaining about the parenting style and standards of the other, and sometimes it is those very differences that led to the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage.
It doesn't end after the children get older, when their activities and education can take a big toll on everyone's time and money. It is just a fact of our modern life that preschool (often private) is a given, after school classes in karate and hip-hop start long before first grade, every birthday party has to include everyone, and all these demands are even before the age of reason and organized sports for the children.
Then life just gets really busy. All of these demands on the free time of the adult can be a fertile ground for resentment. Whose turn it is to drive the travelling hockey star to God knows where can lead to many arguments if everyone is not careful. Words become accusations and arrows, and everyone gets wounded.
What's a Couple to Do?
Back to "Friends With Kids" which is a romantic comedy and therein (romance and comedy) probably lie the answers to how to get through these inevitable issues.
A good sense of humor along with a sense of perspective can make all the difference. Obviously the majority of couples survives and even thrives through the early years, carried to some extent on the absolute lovability of their child or children, combined with the knowledge that these years fly by, though the minutes rocking a crying child to sleep seem endless.
Some tips for getting through those early years include the tried but true "date night" where you reconnect and remember how it all started, and at least a weekend getaway every 6 months so you can both refuel and get the R& R you need.
Surround yourselves with friends who are at the same stage because it really does help to commiserate and trade war stories. Think about a spiritual dimension for your family because you need to step back and evaluate what life is all about and forgive each other.
Finally, do not be too hard on each other and consider consulting an expert on decisions where you are really divided. You do not want to ultimately have to divide from each other unless there is no other reasonable option. Parenting does not get easier with a divorce.

Yes girls, even though I'm no longer a Spring Chicken, I love to dress fashionably and I keep in good shape so I can wear styles like yours.
This dress makes me feel powerful!
May 23, 2013
I actually received this dress as a Christmas gift, but wore it dancing this past weekend. I was waiting to pair it with the studded slingbacks, but the shoes have yet to arrive. (What?s the holdup BeBe?) My body is petite curvy. LOL! I'm slim on the top (32 C# and have a heavy hipped bottom. ;-# I normally wear a BeBe size 2 #XS# or 4 #S) depending on the cut. I tried the XS and couldn't get it zipped. Although, I?m sure it would have fit nicely on the top if I had been successful zipping. The Small fitted on the bottom, but was shift fitting on the top. I had to readjust the top a couple times during the evening. Also, the top and bottom zip was an added touch. I raised the bottom zipper so the dress had a split look to it. #Kinda needed it since it was so tight on the bottom.) I have to add it was a hassle going to the restroom. I had to dress and undress several times because it was way too tight to simply pull-up. Also, I found that the bottom zip had the tendency of sticking. After wearing it for about four hours, the leather looked extremely worn as though it was a few years old. However, I received plenty of compliments from women and men alike.

25 Things About Miller Park Drunk
Fans July 20th, 2009
Remember last year when everyone on facebook was doing that "25 Things" list and then tagging you and trying to get you to do it? Yeah, I never did that. Big League Stew did a baseball related one earlier this year, but we weren't well enough known to be asked (yeah, that's why I'm sure of it). Well, in the interest of always trying different things and lack of any great ideas for our 200th POST we decided to participate. Here's what we came up with.
- I don't own a single bobblehead and I never have. If I did get one I am pretty sure I would sell it. Unless it was the Jeff Suppan bobblehead because that has no value.
- Before the season I told my friends that I would meet my next girlfriend at Miller Park. Thus far this has not happened. (I blame Ryan Braun.)
- When I was a kid I went to a Brewers game and got a foul ball via some Happy Youngster-esque means (batting practice+glove+ball out of reach=glove/belt combo) then later got it signed by two players: Fernando Vina and Derek Jeter. I may have been too old to have that glove, but I know that now and knowing is half the battle. The ball is still around here somewhere.
- I have an unhealthy man crush on Ichiro Suzuki and can often be seen in a Mariners hat. This does not change the way I feel about the Brewers.
- My main influences for Miller Park Drunk are Bill Simmons (like everyone who writes about sports on the internet), Deadspin, Kissing Suzy Kolber and The Dugout, but I would never be here if it wasn't for Scotsmanality (this probably best describes it, this is where Scotsman is now). He always did what you didn't expect him to do and that's something I always try to remember. He did, however, tell me not to start this blog so it's not like he's a genius or anything.
- I HATE the Yankees more than any team in any sport. When my son was born a friend of his mother purchased a baby Yankees jersey for him and I told her that it would "never, ever touch his skin as long as I was alive with the possible exception of being used as a baby wipe." This didn't go over well and led to an enormous fight that I am likely still feeling the effect of, but was the absolute truth and to my knowledge has never happened.
- Honestly? I never considered myself a "true" Brewers fan until around the time Mark A took over the team. I always supported them, but at the same time I was smart enough to know that the Seligs had no clue how to run a team and never would. History has proven me correct in this thinking.
- I have never taken a college course in writing. Does this one surprise you? It's not like we're doing mind blowing work here, but I like to think we're a step above a lot of the blogs out there.
- As a kid my favorite player was Albert Belle. Yes, that Albert Belle. I have no explanation for this at all.
- My favorite Brewer (that's not currently on the team)? I like to say Paul Molitor, but I remember him more for his work as a Blue Jay. The real answer is probably Dave Nilsson.
- One of my life long goals is to throw a decent knuckleball. I should probably stop biting my nails if I ever want this to happen.
- I play Baseball Mogul almost every day and have for the past two years despite the fact that the game hates Milwaukee. Seriously, every single game I play as the Brewers has us losing money and last in ticket sales. Drives me insane. (Don't even get me started on their Braun ratings.)
- I rarely tailgate and usually hit the Fridays before the game. I try to keep my tailgating to times I am with a lot of people and we have the time to get there 2-3 hours before the game (I hate missing first pitch). If you are going with one or two people it's kind of pointless to break out the grill and the bags. Fridays has Spotted Cow, but keep me away from the Long Islands. That doesn't usually end well.
- I am now a published writer featured on Decider. You can find our story in the Milwaukee Decider or the Madison Decider depending on your location. Can you believe someone actually paid me to make jokes about douchebags?
- And since that article decided to use my real name, here's my favorite picture of me at Miller Park. Doing the Lion King with my son at Friday's Front Row.
Alright, that's only 15 but I think that's enough and now you know. Thanks for supporting us for the first 200, here's to the next 200. Check out our article in the Decider. We'll be back later to talk about the newest Brewer and more.

Yes, I know that this is ridiculously premature, and highly speculative, but I wanted to start a conversation about hero pairings and deck construction. The following decks have been designed with the assumption that they will be played in two, three or four player games. In addition, I find multi-sphere decks more interesting, in part because they open up far more potential for deck building, and, I think, will be stronger in two player games. Each deck will run, approximately 32 cards in the main sphere and 16 in the secondary, and 2 neutral allies (which the exception of "Men of Middle Earth, which will be closer to 29/19/2). Given the deck size, I am assuming two starters.
So, here are my initial deck concepts.
Elves – 29 Threat
Denethor - Lore (1W, 1A, 3D, 3H, 8T)
Glorfindel – Lore (3W, 3A, 1D, 5H, 12T)
Legolas – Tactics (1W, 3A, 1D, 4H, 9T)
Yes, yes, I know Denthor isn't an elf, but we only have so many heroes, and he pairs amazingly well with his elven friends. . This basic game plan with this deck is to take advantage of high stats. Send Glorfindel off questing, or bring him to bear against a particularly tough foe. Denethor is one of the best reserve defenders in the game with both a high defense, and the ability to exhaust for a special if no foe appears. Legolas makes for a great attack (especially in multi-player), and actually gives your progress for killing.
The deck will supplement this basic strategy with a deck full of combat tricks. Feints and Forest Snares, and other one-shot cards abound., to all the Legolas and Glorfindel to attack without fear of consequence. The Lore sphere also allows for card drawing, so the hope is, where a mono-tactics deck would run low on cards as the game progresses, the lore deck allows you to keep a hand full of nasty surprises. In addition, Glorfindel and various lore powers give you healing to keep your heroes in the fight.
Dwarves – 29 Threat
Gimli – Tactics (2W, 2A, 2D, 5H, 11T)
Gloin – Leadership (2W, 2A, 1D, 4H, 9T)
Thalin – Tactics (1W, 2A, 2D, 5H, 9T)
The dwarven characters, by nature, want to grind down your opponents. Keep thalin questing, so you can start wearing down monsters that come their way. Gloin wants to put himself in danger, especially once your teammate has ways to heal you, while gimli wants to get bloodied once or twice and turn into an unstoppable killing machine.
While the elves focus on combat tricks, healing and card advantage, the dwarves eschew such cards. Instead, they will focus on building a bevy of long term assets. The dwarves will be gathering axes, strapping on gondrian plate mail, recruiting hoards of allies, and generally focusing on the acquisition of permanent, dwarvy assets. Dwarves, by nature not only want to accumulate stuff, but they get salty when they lose something, so cards that give a boost when some of your permanents are destroyed are also a must. That's not to say that they have no combat tricks, dwarves now the value of a moral boosting wa rcry, and aren't so scrupulous that they won't have one of their many allies launch an Ambush, but, in general, they want focus on acquiring vast piles of resources.
Men of Middle Earth – 28 Threat
Aragorn – Leadership (2W, 3A, 2D, 5H, 12T)
Dunhere – Spirit (1W, 2A, 1D, 4H, 8T)
Theodred - Leadership (1W, 2A, 1D, 4H, 8T)
As long as Theodred constantly rides around of his horse chasing quest after quest, the men of middle earth abound with resource tokens. Theodred's ability synergizes perfectly with Aragorn; you can send the heir of Isildur questing and constantly untap him, and still generate three resources a turn. If you are able to find Celebrian's Stone, or send Dunhere Question, the deck also has more flexibility in resources than other decks, since it can generate Spirit Resources and Leadership resources at the same rate. As for Dunhere, I remain skeptical of his ability. I fear that foes her can kill will engage rather than remaining in the staging area, and the beasts left in the staging area will prove to tough for him to seriously injury. I will test it with him, but if we get another solid spirit hero, he may find himself on the sidelines.
The deck will focus on protecting and empowering your ally. You can keep threat levels low, toss out helpful boosts, and protect your allies from attack (through Aragorn's Sentinel ability, if nothing else). The deck will try to include a number of cards which allow you to press through locations and get progress tokens on the quest. More than any other deck, the Men of Middle Earth want to pour cards onto Aragorn to turn him into an unbeatable champion. You want him both questing and fighting on every turn, so he should get loaded down with every helpful permanent you can find.
Women of Middle Earth – Threat 25 or 16+X
Eowyn - Spirit (4W, 1A, 1D,3H, 9T)
Eleanor – Spirit (1W, 1A, 2D, 3H, 7T)
Beravor or Bilbo Baggins (1W, 1A, 2D, 2H, 9T)
How these heroes would work together is a bit of a mystery, since I have yet to see the states or abilities of Beravor (does anyone know these?). In any case, she may be quickly replaced by Bilbo, whose ability to draw cards is just ridiculously. You game plan is fairly simple; take advantage of Eowyn's ridiculous willpower, as well as her power, and try to plow through quests as quickly as possible. Make sure your threat stays low, since your partner should be doing most (all?) of the fighting. You will focus on healing your ally, even bringing back fallen heroes, providing various forms of support, and generating occasional card advantage for when you need to push Eowyn over the top to finish quests. Most of all, try not to get noticed, because all of your heroes are quite squishy.
Let me know what you think about this game plan.

Fished from 4 p.m.- dark. Sulphurs came off sproadically until about 8 at which point things started to heat up. Had good luck on small Olive and Yellow flies (#18 #20) as well as beetles and a pheasant tail dropper. Fished 7x and had a bunch of break offs. Better luck on 6x.

Rock Skool is soooooo much more than a holiday activity

After a year of lessons, she successfully auditioned for the Rock Skool (not a typo) programme. Now, every holiday for the past year and a bit she has spent a week as a lead singer in a band, and absolutely loves it!! The programme provides the opportunity for kids of similar ages, ski (...)

We have two teenagers who enjoy music, but with very different tastes. Whilst this normally drives us mad on long car journeys, Big Music had the answer. Our son had attended before but our daughter, although older, was a bit reluctant. A quick after school intro with Jane (honestly nothing is too much trouble for these guys) and she was hooked. Don't let the 'Rock' in Roc (...) Read more
My son goes to Big Music during the term for band lessons and his bandmates all signed up for the holiday program. It was great. He was with friends and they improved a lot over the 4 days. It worked out to be about the same amount as a babysitter for the week so all in all, it was well worth it!
It's fun, it's engaging and its cool to go to Rock Skool.....at least according to my 10yo daughter Grace. She has now attended several Rock Skools at B!G Music and loved everyone of them. There is always much anticipation on the morning of day 1 as she waits anxiously to see who her fellow band mates will be and who her coach is. The Band Program is really well constructe (...)

We decided to send our daughter to Big Music during the holidays because she pestered us into it and I'd have to say, I was very impressed.

My husband and I were incredibly impressed with the final performance (compared t (...) Read more
My daughter didn't really want to go to sports camp again these holidays and so we sent her to Big Music for the week. She's never had a huge interest in music (she kicked and screamed about her piano lessons so we just gave up!) but they have a great beginners program there and by the end of the week she was hooked. Despite the fact that we'll now have to probably get her (...) Read more

Love these. This is the 2nd time I've bought them 1st time I bought them by mistake in a shop as I thought they were waterproof. I had misread the label, but one using them I was glad I'd made the purchase I wear them almost daily as they keep my hot feet cool
Sized as Expected
Everyday use
These shoes feel amazing. I'm already quick on my feet and I've noticed that I'm moving noticeably faster. I wish I would have purchased 3 pairs of these as it appears that the UK 10.5 black pair are now becoming hard to find. They feel substantial while being completely breathable. I've never owned a pair of shoes that have fit me so well. They're perfect shoes for traversing through an urban environment.
Sized as Expected
traversing through an urban environment
These are excellent, stylish, lightweight and hardy. Can't beat 'em for the price.
Smaller than Expected
I bought this shoes some days ago and i was very happy with overall look and confort. But when i tried this shoes for the first time i notice that my fingers were in full contact with the front of the shoe, despite not hurting, it's a bit uncomfortable, although i have some space to spare in the shoe and in comparision with other shoes it's about the same size, so i would like to know if it's normal to feel that way because of the format of the shoe or i should buy a bigger size?
Hi there, Thanks for your review. Some of our customers may find that certain styles are not suitable for them due to the fit. Most of our Merrell customers find that they need to go up a half to a full size in our footwear as we are a US company, the sizing can come up slightly smaller - We hope this helps - The Merrell Team.
