Mold Removal is Necessary
Respiratory problems are a health concern that homeowners should not ignore and they should find ways to remove molds in their homes. The reason is that mold exposure can cause a variety of symptoms like colds, congested sinus or nose, sore throat, watery eyes, skin irritations, cough and asthma attacks. Mold removal is a must because many people are allergic to mold spores whether they are dead or alive. Those who are at risk are pregnant women and children as well as pets. In the event homeowners see molds in their houses, it is time for them to call specialists who will remove these molds or go to http://www.moldlab.com to look for inexpensive mold kits.

Home Entertainment
The gaming industry has seen tremendous growth in recent years. Even the movie industry looks pale in comparison. Traditionally, we've seen games being developed after movies. Current market trends have many movie makers developing adaptations of video games knowing they will be a sure-fire hit at the box office. But why are we seeing such trends? One can point towards the evolution of the television and the increased demand for quality home entertainment furniture.
Television has seen one of the greatest advances in technology in recent years. High-definition television and Plasma TV's have the technologically-savvy drooling. And it's because of the advent of these that many furniture manufacturers are taking the initiative to make the home entertainment system something to behold. For many of us, there is no better feeling than seeing in perfect detail, the game-winning overtime goal during the Stanley Cup Finals, or watching the walk-off home run during the World Series.
Proving to be one of the most advantageous from the advent of High-Def and Plasma TV's is the gaming industry. In recent years, we've seen the birth of such next-generation gaming systems such as the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Nintendo Wii. These systems have taken the world by storm, with over three quarters of the homes throughout North America, Europe, and Asia owning at least one of the three aforementioned systems. And is it any wonder why these systems are the "Must-haves" for any teen or young adult? Not really when you think about it. For many gamers, for years they've wanted to see their games come to life, and with the engines these systems are equipped with, the graphics are so realistic that it may be as close to real life as they'll ever get. Or perhaps they've wanted to be part of the game, acting as the main hero in the story, or actually driving the car. Enter the Nintendo Wii – a system that uses a remote control as a peripheral device that acts as your own personal sword, steering wheel, golf club, etc etc.
So what does this mean for the state of the home entertainment system? A tremendous leap in demand for high-quality entertainment centers, big-screen units, and/or other home theater furniture.
Keeping up with this demand, many furniture manufacturers are producing home entertainment centers as their top line of product, as they too want to be part of the home entertainment phenomenon. In today's marketplace, it is not uncommon to see several big screen and corner units, entertainment armoires, TV stands and cabinets, and other home theater furniture from your local retailer or online store.
We are now left with the evolution of gaming, combined with top-of-the-line entertainment furniture. What does that make? Home entertainment for the 21st century. A state where our lives are being fulfilled by unbelievable clarity in the games we play and the movies we watch and undeniable fun when entertaining our guests.
The evolution of the television has indeed forever changed the outlook on modern day home entertainment. With it, we are once again seeing our living rooms as a haven where fun and entertainment lives. High definition and plasma televisions, next generation gaming, and quality home entertainment centers are the future of home theater. This is home entertainment for the 21st century!
Here it is folks. One of the hardest to find Showtime TV Specials from the 80's. STEVEN BANKS HOME ENTERTAINMENT CENTER is one of the single most hilarious hours of entertainment ever brought to life. Guitars, ukelele, wood flute, banjo, drums, harmonica and more. . . . . This guy can play anything. Synopsis: A thirty-something office worker with dreams of rock and roll turns his ADHD inner musician loose in this fantastic romp. I hope you enjoy it. If you've never heard of Steven Banks you might be interested to know he's written and performed voice work and music for animated staples like SPONGEBOB, CATDOG, COURAGE THE COWARDLY DOG and DOZENS of others.

Home Improvement Tv Show
Finding home improvement TV shows is a relatively simple task. Since the premiere in 1979 of Bob Vila's "This Old House" the industry has expanded rapidly as more and more homeowners seek to make their own repairs and upgrades.
Cable's DIY Network is devoted to home repairs and remodels that homeowners can do themselves. Several of their home improvement TV shows are available online as well. Here you can find such basic information as how to choose the right wrench or basic plumbing for beginners.
DIY Network offers many home improvement TV shows such as BATHtastic! hosted by Matt Muenster, which has offered projects such as installing wainscoting, painting stripes on a wall by using a laser level, and installing a tile shower surround. Sweat Equity, hosted by Amy Matthews, offers the premise that two weekends of work can increase the value of your home by $10,000. Programs have covered staining hardwood floors, refinishing kitchen cabinets, installing crown molding in a kitchen, and installing a doggie door.
Other shows on DIY Network include Man Caves, Desperate Landscapes, and Yard Crashers. For a complete list of all of their home improvement TV shows, check your local cable listings or visit them online.
HGTV also has a great lineup of home improvement TV shows. Some of their offerings include Holmes on Homes, Carter Can, Don't Sweat It, Over Your Head, and Income Property. Holmes on Homes takes examples of renovations or repairs that have been improperly done and shows how they should have been performed. Carter Can focuses on homeowners who think their projects are too expensive or time consuming or require more skill than they possess. The host shows them ways around their objections. Don't Sweat It offers homeowners the quick way to accomplish projects they have been delaying.
Some home improvement TV shows are devoted to specific audiences. For example, Income Property shows homeowners how to convert part of their house into an apartment to generate rental income. DIY Network's Kitchen Impossible focuses on renovating kitchens.
Planet Green, one of the Discovery channels, offers Greenovate, a show dedicated to save on energy bills and increase the value of their home. World's Greenest Homes takes viewers on tours of eco-friendly homes and is a great place for "green" ideas.
With so many home improvement TV shows on cable, it is easy to find entire channels devoted to the art of making home repairs or improvements yourself. For those who do not have cable, the father of all home improvement TV shows, Bob Vila is still on PBS with This Old House, offering advice just as he has since 1979. Hometime, also on PBS, offers advice on renovations, landscaping, and more.
You can find many more home improvement TV shows by checking your local listings or going online. If you miss your favorite episode, you can watch many of them at the channel's website. Whether you are seeking a reality show, such as Extreme Makeover, or the step by step demonstrations offered by such home improvement TV shows as Over Your Head, there is one to fit whatever project you have in mind.

If you like the itinerary below please quote REF AFRICA 315 when enquiring for further details.
Alternatively you may like modify this trip with your own Holiday Wish List
Arrival in Antananarivo, the capital of Madagascar. Welcome and assistance at the airport. After a short briefing, drive to Andasibe through the green and luxuriant vegetation of the east. This first step brings you to the humid part of the country with many primary forests and lakes. Along the way we will see Merina villages in the rocky mountains. Arrive at Andasibe around 18h00. Check-in to your ensuite bungalows, overlooking the forest. Later this evening at approximately 19h00 enjoy a night walk in the area of Andasibe to observe night active lemurs and other nocturnal animals.
A morning visit to the Special Reserve of Andasibe, to see the Indri Indri, the largest lemurs on the island. This 810 ha reserve is unique with its endemic fauna and flora. It contains a wide variety of orchids, canopy, and endemic animals like chameleons, tenrecs, and many birds. After the visit, walk through the orchid park to admire all the nice flowers. In the afternoon, visit Andasibe village, a typical Betsimisaraka (The-Many-inseparable) village, and the second largest tribe on the island. They cultivate rice and live mainly off the forest. This visit allows contact with the local people, to see how they live and what they eat.
Drive back to Tana and head south to Antsirabe. The spectacular eroded hills called 'lavaka' reminiscent of the Far East with its rice fields and green landscape with vegetables and fruit trees. A stop in Ambatolampy for a short visit. Arrival in Antsirabe around 17h00, or 'the place of salt', an elegant city well known as the centre of the beer industry, you can smell the Star Brewery as you enter the town! Founded by the Norwegians in 1856, it is the only place which really feels and looks like a European city.
After breakfast, drive to Ambositra, the centre of Madagascar's wood carving industry. We are still in the highland, which is characterized by its architecture: The houses are made with ornately carved wooden balconies and shutters with bright colours. Further on you pass the 'le col de tapia', a type of tree resistant to the bush fires of the area. The landscape is still dominated by rice fields, pine and eucalyptus trees and rocky mountains. Onward to stunning Ranomafana National Park.
Parc National de Ranomafana (approximately 40,000ha), with its rain forested hills and abundant wildlife, has long been considered one of Madagascar's highlights, and is one of the most heavily visited of the country's national parks. Its entrance lies about 7km from Ranomafana village. Altitudes in the park range from 800m to 1200m. In addition to its densely forested hills, Ranomafana's terrain is characterised by numerous small streams, which plummet down to the beautiful Namorona River. Although much of the region has been logged, the easternmost part of the park retains relatively large areas of primary forest. You will go for walks in the National Park for several hours spotting some of the lemurs, chameleons and other animals.
Leave Ranomafana using the road that you entered on, and pass Fianarantsoa 'the city where one learns good things'. It is the gate to the South and the capital of the Betsileo tribes. Then we head southwards, your first stop is in Ambalavao to visit a wine industry for wine tasting, as Ambalavao is the centre of wine industry. Continue to Ihosy, the capital of the Bara tribes, who are the shepherds of Zebu, and pass through the mountain chain of Andringitra, which serves as a transition between the dry south and green highlands with its famous '3 hillocks' and its huge 'archbishop's cape'.
Visit to Isalo National Park. The park covers an area of 81 540 ha comprising the entire stretch of the Isalo massif. This huge mountain is spectacular with its eroded sandstone mountain. Today walk to the 'Natural swimming pool'. After a 10-minute drive from Ranohira village you'll walk about 1½ hours to reach the Natural Swimming Pool. Walk through the eroded mountains where the Bara people place their dead before they can be interned into their final resting place. Start the climb and reach the massif, (after a 20 minute walk) where you will have a spectacular view.
After breakfast, continue to Tuléar at the end of National Road N° 7. Admire some different scenery - the dry forests of the west and the spiny desert of the south. After a short visit of Tuléar you drive to Ifaty, which lies about 27 km from Tuléar. Due to the bad condition of the road it will take about 2½ hours to reach Ifaty which brings you to the driest part of the country. Situated in the deep south, the landscape is dominated by the spiny forest cacti, Baobab trees and thorn-bushes.
Day at leisure. Ifaty, being a beachside town is an ideal place for diving, snorkelling and is also a popular destination for birdwatchers.
Early in the morning around 6h00, transfer to the airport for the flight back to Tana and transfer to your accommodation. (Please note, this flight is not included in the trip price, this can be booked upon request, please contact us for further details). Check in at your hotel and enjoy a free afternoon.
We will transfer you to the airport for the flight to Nosy Be and on arrival, check you into the hotel.
After breakfast, proceed by taxi to Nosy Be airport where you will fly back to the capital city, Antananarivo. We will check you into the hotel.

Are you sure that it is their feed and not the away teams?QUOTE]
Yes 100%. It was the Blazers feed from CSNNW. They televise all home Blazers games in HD. I've seen plenty of other CSN games in HD on the LP. I wonder if this has something to do with CSNNW and D* not having a deal in place. I will have to keep an eye on Sixers games and see if there are ever broadcast in HD when using the Philadelphia Comcast feed (since they don't have a deal with D* in place either).
I've been watching the free preview this week trying to decide if I want to subscribe for the remainder of the season. If the CSNNW games aren't going to be available in HD, I will lose all my motivation to subscribe. The SD version is unwatchable.
They ONLY time I have seen CSN Philly games in HD is during baseball season. They started showing some Phillies games in HD (Philly home games) as part of the deal to continue MLB EI.

Re: tanking dps
Dps goes up alot with gear, but 4k is only on aoe stuff, im doing 2-3k single target depending on the fight, obviously fights like twins will inflate your dmg, same with jaraxxus.
I don't think your missing anything tbh.

Re: tanking dps
Not really, some fights as mentioned above give boosts to damage done, also you're probably looking at people in 25man raids with more buffs availible. I can do up to 2.8k DPS or so on a tank and spank in a 25m.

Re: tanking dps
I think on Twins 25 man, tanking them on top of each other, I managed 4-5k. Anything single target I generally get like 1.8-2.8k. On Kologarn I can push 3.2. That's about it. It's nothing bad.

On twins last week i did 5200 dps when we had them split (so no aoe at all) but I was wearing the greatness deck, belt of colossal rage, and dps neck off 10man yogg. Normally I'm around 2300 dps on single-target with movement, maybe 3k on stuff like Koralon in normal tank gear.

Re: tanking dps
I know everyone's saying the same thing here, but I'm going to agree too. I do from 2k to 3k in most single target situations. What's really fun is to take some undergeared dps through an undead-heavy heroic like CoS and watch them boggle over your 5k tank dps in a 5 man.

Re: tanking dps
Just going to toss this in. If I PUG a heroic it's not uncommon for me to be the first or second in total damage done. Since the tank is there on every fight from the start to the finish and each pack has 3-5 mobs, we can put out some nice damage on groups. Of course, once the other players learn how to play I wouldn't be in quite that situation.

Year 8 science club are going to attempt to complete one of the activities in the Genius Inventions pack to gain their Bronze CREST awards.
This is a "self delivery" pack which has been designed specifically for National Science and Engineering Week 2013. The science behind fingeprints is well known! What is not so well known is the link between fingerprints and footprints. Right Angle Events have launched a new education pack called 'Toes for Turf' comprising at least 4 hours of fun teaching material linked to Key Stage 1-4 Mathematics.
We have designed a fantastic scheme especially for National Science & Engineering Week called "Toes For Turf". The science behind fingerprints is well known. What is not so well known is the science behind footprints or "feet prints". This activity enables students to take, classify and "lift" both fingerprints and foot prints. As the research on footprints is meagre, this scheme will allow students to make some discoveries about the correlation or otherwise between fingerprints and feet prints.
We will be running a science club for children from the junior school for 8 weeks before science week. Children will be working on projects designed by local scientists and making posters to show what they've done. A competition will be held and prizes will be given for the best posters and projects. During science week we'll have a science day for the whole school. Local scientists will come to the school and we'll have science themed activities all day.

Vanity Fair Tiger Woods Mistresses (PHOTOS, VIDEO)
by Meg at . CommentsGracing the pages of the May 2010 issue of Vanity Fair are four of the mistresses of Tiger Woods. Participating in the interview and photo shoot were Jamie Jungers, Michelle Braun, Mindy Lawton, and Loredana Jolie Ferriolo -- as seen the our lead photo.
A sneak preview on VF's website indicates some interesting tidbits, including the fact that Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley were Tiger's drinking and gambling buddies and were instrumental in showing him the ropes...so to speak.
The author of the article, Mark Seal also lays out a dark side of Woods' father Earl, who was reportedly a heavy drinker and womanizer.
Check it all out on the video below - then check out Tiger Woods' controversial new Nike commercial.
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
I think its great!!!! Kudos to Vanity Fair for doing this because Tiger is scum who will NEVER change and people need to see what he was doing all while MARRIED!!!!! Mind you these girls are only a fraction of the girls he was sleeping with. Tiger isnt remotely sorry for what he did - he is only sorry he got caught.
I take it Vanity Fair has no morals when it comes to homewreckers. This really is in poor taste.

Vickroy: Clark Weber, seniors revisit radio's heyday
By Donna Vickroy email@example.com Twitter: @dvickroy October 11, 2013 6:48PM
Article Extras
Updated: November 14, 2013 6:20AM
Clark Weber rocks this retirement thing.
The former 1960s-70s radio disc jockey and talk show host, among the most popular on the Chicago airwaves at his peak, continues to entertain audiences, only nowadays he's preaching to an older choir.
"For people in their 60s, 70s and 80s, aging can be a very fearful time," Weber said, before taking the stage at the Smith Crossing Continuing Care Retirement Community in Orland Park. "Many haven't planned for retirement and suddenly, it's here."
Among the first things Weber tells people is that he lives in a retirement community in Evanston.
"Joan and I are thrilled to be there," he said. "We weren't in there a week and Joan had a slipcover made for the stove."
And then, perhaps to prove that old age and fogeyness are not one and the same, he tears into anecdotes about hookers, toilet paper and off-air pranks gone awry.
Weber — who worked for WLS, WCFL and WIND in Chicago — has sold about 6,000 copies of his book, "Clark Weber's Rock and Roll Radio: The Fun Years, 1955-1975," which is filled with stories about rock-and-roll legends and life during rock radio's heyday (available at amazon.com and chicagosbooks.com).
He uses some of the material in his live presentation — remembering his good friends and fellow Chicago legends Wally Phillips and Howard Miller, both of whom have died — as well as the first time he met Sonny and Cher.
Weber had been asked to tour with the couple, who were starring in a teenage film called "Good Times." He was to introduce them on stage.
"She was a grouch who sat at the back of the bus and just smoked," he recalled. "Finally, I asked what was wrong with her. And (Sonny) said, 'We just found out we owe the IRS $250,000 in back taxes, and she doesn't like the movie.' "
Weber said that film, once discovered by a CBS executive, catapulted the couple to their own TV show and a lifetime of fame.
He also told the audience about an "unfortunate" incident at Brother Rice High School years ago. Paul Revere and the Raiders were playing on stage when a teenage girl in the front row reached up and grabbed lead singer Mark Lindsay.
"Do you know where she grabbed him?" he asked, drawing laughter from the audience. "You're right."
Weber, who turns 83 next month, has four daughters, 12 grandchildren and one great-grandchild. In addition to promoting his book, he speaks on behalf of retirement community living at senior citizen homes across the Chicago area and in three other states, including Florida. Earlier this day, he spoke at the Smith Village in Chicago's Beverly community.
Weber doesn't see radio lasting the decade, not unless it gets a huge infusion of young listeners. But for a 20-year period or so, beginning in the mid 1950s, it was the be-all, end-all.
He was a morning deejay in Milwaukee in 1960 when WLS called and offered him $34,000 to move to Chicago. Back then a new Chevrolet cost about $6,000.
"There are still skid marks on I-94 from when I got in the car and headed south," he said, adding that he was also able to earn $600 to $900 more a week for live appearances at concerts and other events.
Weber went on to become a program director, a job that he said was not that impressive.
"It's like running a cemetery. All kinds of people underneath you, but nobody's listening."
On his 44th birthday, columnist Irv Kupcinet gave him a mention in his Chicago Sun-Times column.
"Howard Miller noticed it and wished me a happy birthday," Weber said. "Then he asked me why I was so down. I told him I was 44 and still a DJ."
That's when Miller told him about the next big thing in radio.
"Talk," he said. "I said, 'Get outta here.' Talk?' "
Sure enough, Weber's next gig was at WIND, then an all-talk station.
Back then, he said, Wally Phillips could command a salary of up to $1 million. But these days, he said, stations no longer have that kind of revenue, or a DJ that wide a reach.
Weber frequently visited Phillips, who suffered from Alzheimer's disease before he died.
"Even though he couldn't remember me, he would hug me because he could remember that I was a part of his past," Weber said.
And that was a past filled with practical jokes. Weber recalled the time that he flew then-newcomer Larry Lujack to a downstate gig in his Piper Aztec twin-engine airplane, which he used to park next to Bob Collins' plane at Palwaukee Airport.
On the flight back, Weber pulled out the cumbersome aircraft operating manual and began flipping through the pages. Lujack nervously asked what was wrong.
"I told him, 'Oh nothing, just trying to figure out how to land this damn thing,' " Weber said.
After encouraging the Smith Crossing seniors to make the most of their golden years and citing Bob Hope, Tony Bennett and Howard Miller as examples of people who aged gracefully, Weber gave his signature farewell: "This is Mother Weber's oldest son, Clark, signing off."

Size of shirt was a size for a child not an adult
"This blue is a little bit too light..."
By Alex
from Schiavon, Italy
About Me Casual, Trendy
The shirt is good, cotton and fit are great - as said, as for me the blue is a little bit too light. I thought that light blue was more like a navy blue. But this is my thought.

Not a proportionate fit for a women
By JS
from Ohio
About Me Casual
This shirt is not designed to fit a women. Not only is it very narrow but it is not accommodating (does not flare) in the hips at all like most women's t-shirts are. Also, ordering a size or two up might be good enough to get the shirt on but they then seem to become exponentially long in a disproportionate way. Shame really b/c it appears that all of the NCIS women's tees are probably the same kind of tee so I will not be ordering more. If you are tall, have no hips or like very long tees then this is for you!
Very small fit
By westec1
from Canada
These are very small fit, my wife is 118 pounds with a small build, I ordered a large and it is to tight, in my opinion these are for children, not women.

Second pair, very comfortable
Sized as Expected
Daily outdoor
I bought these to replace my Siren Ventilator's that I had for 5 years and eventually wore out. Love these shoes, very light weight and comfortable. I am noticing a bit of pressure on the top sides of the foot where the tongue is folded around but it is nothing uncomfortable, just need to get used to it. Fit is true to size and love the olive colour. Didn't need the gortex as I have a pair of Merrell gortex mid-boots (love those too btw!). There has been no 'breaking-in' process, just put them on and go! Quite a bit of support for a low-cut shoe which is good as I tend to be an ankle-roller. I will more than likely wear these right out over the next few years and then replace them again with another great pair of Merrell's. Whatever you guys are doing to make great shoes, keep doing it. Keeping me and my household happy with hikers!!
Sized as Expected

EarthLite Fitted Disposable Headrest Covers, 50ct Your clients will love the feel of EarthLite's disposable headrest covers. Flat covers feature a soft, absorbent medical grade fiber that is hypoallergenic. Box of 50.
I use a flannel headrest cover and place these over that cover. They fit rather nicely and I don't have to change the flannel cover, just the disposable cover. They have never ripped and serve the purpose.
Headrest flannel covers are good quality but natural color is not bleached white. I like white these are not...my learning experience!
The picture on the website beside other brands make it look like they are cotton or cotton-like. They are not. They are mesh just like the nurses caps. They are a little softer but still not the quality that appears on the website. They are still the best ones on the market but could be softer.
These cradle covers actually fit my massage chair cradle cushion!!! They are easy to use. There only downfall is a little flap of material that gets right in the client's face. other than that, they are great.
These are good, but so thin as to be transparent. I feel the need to wipe down the headrest even after using the covers.

Course Description :
The first part of this course is designed to provide students with an insight into key financial accounting concepts needed for effective decision-making. This includes a brief discussion of how to record transactions using T accounts; preparing adjusted trial balances; preparing income statements, balance sheets, and statements of cash flows. Techniques for analyzing financial statements to examine a companys financial status with respect to profitability, liquidity, and solvency are also discussed. This course subsequently builds on traditional concepts of managerial accounting (break-even analysis; strategic decisions involving product line decisions; downsizing, outsourcing; profit planning and how to set and examine budgets; and transfer pricing to maximize company value. We will also explore strategic cost reduction and waste/inefficiency reducing techniques such as Value Chain Management and Activity Based Management. The focus of the course, in summary, relates to how to effectively understand and use managerial accounting data in executive planning and control. This course is very intensive since we will be trying to cover a large amount of material over the semester. Absolute student commitment is required. Students must allocate a certain amount of time each day on this course. I will leave it up to you to judge for yourself the time required based on your learning ability.

About Me Budget Shopper
Best Uses
I use the product for my driveway which faces north and doesn't get much sun and the ice/snow does not melt quickly. I also use it for two walkways and entrances that also face north with little sun. I sometimes put the product on these areas prior to a snowfall, and the snow melts as it hits the ground. Also, the product sometimes stays intact which makes it useful for another snowfall.

Who Do We Think We Are? Part 1
7 comments:
- Susan Rich said...
Great post, Kelli,
I love your theoretical neighbor-kid story on Italy! As a writer (why can't I say poet or artist?)without kids - I have to say that there are really similar issues - but not the same. Does the world need another poet? Shouldn't I be doing something more productive then dedicating my life to my writing -- something like mothering! From my point of view, you women get the best of both worlds. And I love that you mentioned all of your books and accolades! - 8:42 AM, June 09, 2010
- Maureen said...
I agree with Susan; great post. Who among us who is a woman hasn't experienced some aspect of what you describe. That's why "Who Does She Think She Is?" is so important a film. The implications even in the title!
I have a son and never felt worse than when I went back to work and left him in the care of another during the day. It still bothers me that I felt such anxiety that I couldn't be at home with him and do what I did then: edit and write for a living. Even those of us who grew up in the '60s with feminists as our models felt this tug.
Thank you for such honesty and continuing the conversation. - 9:38 AM, June 09, 2010
- Kells said...
Susan & Maureen-- Thank you for your generous responses!
What has been interesting to me since I've been writing about "Who Does She Think She is?" is that I've been hearing from women who do not have kids or do, have a full-time job or don't, are stay at home moms or not, or have unique situations and the question of self-doubt returns in different ways to each of us--
Is our writing/art/work valuable?
When yes yes yes, it is! We are doing what we should be doing!
Thank you for adding into this conversation. It's one close to my heart and I so appreciate hearing from you both. - 11:37 AM, June 09, 2010
- LanaAyers said...
Silly as it sounds, cat mommas feel guilty too.
- 2:09 PM, June 09, 2010
- mariegauthier said...
Oh Kelli, what a great post, so true in every way! I'm always adding that qualifier, every (once a month!) time I go out (only for poetry readings) (it's only for a couple hours) (they're having much-needed [and overdue] daddy-time) and on and on and on. Though I inwardly wince, I can't seem to help myself.
- 6:49 PM, June 09, 2010
- djvorreyer said...
Great post, Kelli. I think we all qualify - it's part of our reflex. But it's important for our kids to see what we are passionate about. Mothers who revolve their entire lives around what is perceived as "good" mothering by others often are unhappy - that is much worse for your kids than going off to a writing class!
I like to think my son (who is creative in other ways) has learned to value that part of him by watching me pursue my poetry. - 7:18 PM, June 09, 2010
- Joelle Biele said...
Hi Kelli, I'm going to have to watch this now after all you've said-- That struck me, too, about camp--the "bad mother" issue-- And congrats on your recital! xo, Joelle

"I tried both basketball and baseball for a while, but as I got bigger, I wanted to try football," the Bradley Central senior explained. "On the first hit in practice I knocked the other kid's helmet off and I loved the game."
Ten years later, the 6-foot-6, 300-pound 17-year-old is still dominating opponents to the point where he has been named as a finalist for the Tennessee Titans' Mr. Tennessee Football Award.
"This (the nomination) was a big surprise," declared Sanders, who became the first football player in University of Tennessee history to be offered a scholarship before his high school junior season, in the summer of 2011.
"This is a great honor. I never thought anything about ever being nominated for it," he added. "My family is all excited. We, and my girlfriend's family, are all planning on going over (to Murfreesboro) for it." More than 600 people are expected for the awards luncheon at the Embassy Suites Hotel and Conference Center tomorrow.
Although he played some defensive tackle, the three-year starter at offensive tackle graded out at 91 percent and had 47 pancake blocks this past season while helping the Bears to their third straight TSSAA playoff appearance.
Rated by ESPN as the No. 8 prospect in the state, ESPN's RecruitingNation says of him, "Sanders' strong suit is his upper body playing strength as a run blocker — he can maul and maneuver opponents with dominating hand strength. He has the size and athleticism for the offensive tackle position at the major level of competition." With 5.5 speed in the 40-yard dash, Sanders is also ranked 26th nationally among offensive tackles.
"It's nice to see his hard work and dedication pay off for him," proclaimed Bradley head coach Damon Floyd. "He is such an humble kid. Although he's gotten all this recognition and opportunities, he's isn't a bit cocky.
"With all the tradition and great players who have come through here, Austin is just the second Bradley player to ever be nominated for the (Mr. Tennessee Football) award (which dates back to 1985)," the coach commented. Despite rushing for more than 2,500 yards his senior season, former Bear standout Blake Morris was a 2000 finalist in the lineman category because of his defensive prowess at linebacker.
Sanders is one of three finalists in the Division I, Class AAA lineman category this year, along with Frank Herron of Memphis Central and Brentwood's Logan Teichmann.
Herron is a 6-foot-5, 245-pound defensive end who has verbally committed to LSU, while Teichmann is a 6-foot-5, 280-pound offensive tackle who plans to play for UT-Chattanooga.
In 2009 Ooltewah lineman and current Vol Jacques Smith was the Lineman of the Year. The local area hasn't had a Mr. Football winner since 2007 when Polk County's Mike Hammons won the kicker award.
Cleveland High has had three winners of the award, including two in one year when Stephon Woods and Eric Stout were named the Class 4A Back and Lineman of the Year respectively. Former Blue Raider Demetrius Fields won the same award for backs in 1999.
The Mr. Tennessee award isn't the first honor to come Sanders' way this postseason. He has also been chosen to play in the 2013 Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl. Sponsored by the United States Marine Corp, the nationally televised game, which features the nation's best and brightest high school football players, will take place at the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., on Jan. 4.
"I was also nominated for the U.S. Army All-American game, but I didn't get my papers back in time," Sanders related.
Although he's had several other invites to play in all-star type games, the only other one Sanders has decided to participate in is the Toyota East-West Game. Being played Dec. 8 at Tennessee Tech, Sanders chose to participate because it would be an opportunity to play for coach Floyd one last time.
"I agreed to play in it because coach Floyd was coaching in it," he related. "I've really enjoyed playing for him at Bradley. To get the chance to play one more game under him was something I'm glad to get the opportunity to do."
Cleveland High linebacker David Morgan, plus McMinn County running back Kelvin Wells Jr. and defensive linemen Aaron Kimpson and Kalluante Hammonds are also on the East roster for the game.
Although Sanders made his commitment to play for Tennessee in August of 2011, he is still being continually wooed by other schools, especially with the recent firing of Vol head coach Derek Dooley.
"Alabama and Ohio State came down a couple of weeks ago. After coach Dooley got fired, they were two of about 10 schools that called me that day," he related. The list of schools also contained Michigan and Ole Miss. He made a trip to Knoxville the day after Dooley was let go to confirm to the school he still wanted to be a Vol.
"I really like coach Dooley, but I told all of them I didn't commit to the coach. I committed to Tennessee," Sanders remarked. "That's where I've always wanted to play. I'm excited about who the new coach may be. I think whoever comes in will probably keep (offensive line) coach (Sam) Pittman and (running backs) coach (Jay) Graham. That's who I've been working with.
"The offense has been really good this year, especially the line," he added. "I really like them (Pittman and Graham) and feel confident they will stay."
Tennessee first took notice of Sanders while scouting former Bear wide receiver James Stovall. Coach Floyd asked them to take a look at Sanders, who was just a sophomore at the time, on the films.
"They invited me to come up to a camp (in the summer of 2011) and had me working out with guys who were seniors and I was beating them," Sanders recalled. "I began to realize then that I might have a chance of playing college ball."
The Vol coaches invited Sanders, who was just 6-foot-3, 280 at the time, to come back for another workout, after which they sent him to see coach Dooley.
"He offered me a scholarship. I didn't know at the time I was the first junior they'd ever offered. All I knew is it was a dream come true," he stated. "I was 16. It was hard to believe. I was excited. I told him I had to make sure it was all right with my parents. They were thrilled."
"Right after that Alabama and the other schools starting calling and coming around," Sanders related. "I visited Vanderbilt and Alabama, but Tennessee is where I want to be."

Bears are exposed most when their first quarter stinks
BY MARK POTASH firstname.lastname@example.com December 1, 2012 4:48PM
Jay Cutler
Related Stories
Updated: December 2, 2012 11:45AM
Like so many Bears trends, this one sounds better than it is: Since the Bears acquired Jay Cutler, they are 21-1 when they lead after one quarter.
That sounds great. And when you combine it with the fact that the Bears have outscored their opponents 68-28 in the first quarter this season — the second-largest margin in the NFL — you'd think the Bears would be 9-2 or 10-1 with a bullet.
Yet the Bears, though legitimate contenders, are a soft 8-3 today. Soft because against the three best teams they have played — the Packers, Texans and 49ers — they have scored zero points in the first quarter. And it's impossible to lead after the first quarter when you don't score.
That 21-1 first-quarter record with Jay Cutler rings hollow when the Bears literally can't get out of their way at the start of a game. On the first play against the Vikings, Matt Forte ran into fullback Evan Rodriguez and fumbled. On the Bears' next offensive snap, Jay Cutler tripped over center Roberto Garza's foot and was sacked.
It's been that way all season, and the Bears don't seem to have an idea of how to fix it. At least they're aware of the problem.
''We're going to make sure probably the rest of the way out that we're careful early in the games,'' offensive coordinator Mike Tice said. ''We've had some bad starts and don't want to come out and shoot ourselves in the foot early. So we can manage some of those calls and make sure we don't put ourselves in harm's way with some of the earlier calls.''
The challenge is even greater Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks. The Bears will be trying to pull off an unusual trick: improving a struggling offensive line by replacing its best player, right guard Lance Louis, with former right tackle Gabe Carimi, who started learning how to play guard last week.
''The challenge is making sure they're all on the same page, all have the same calls,'' Cutler said. ''In the middle of the game, third quarter, fourth quarter, we can't have a slip-up. They've got to have it down pat.''
Cutler's getting ahead of himself. The Bears need to get the first quarter, the first series, the first play from scrimmage down before they worry about the third or fourth quarter. In six of their 11 games, the Bears have had a negative play on their first snap of the game — three sacks, two fumbles and a holding call. This team literally needs to run the first play of the game without a hitch and go from there.
It's an old tale, but it bears repeating: It all starts with Cutler. His 41.7 passer rating in the first quarter is 41st among the 42 quarterbacks who have started this season.
''I've got to get rid of the ball,'' Cutler said. ''Coach Tice has to dial up some good plays and keep those guys protected. They'll throw a lot of different looks on the offensive line and in the secondary. We've got to get B [Brandon Marshall] going, hopefully get Matt Forte going.
''So it's a collective group, but I drive the thing, so I've got to get off to a fast start.''

Simplicity Laser Hair Removal
The technicians and physicians at Simplicity Laser Hair Removal work to evict wily follicle lodgers of all colors with advanced hair-razing equipment that combines FDA-approved diode, Nd:Yag, and alexandrite lasers. Customers can gently pulverize strands in one body area with six or eight treatments of concentrated pulsed photons, which coax squatting body threads out of their skin shelters with laser wavelengths and candy. Alternatively, opt for a full year of treatments to tackle multiple areas across unlimited visits. Simplicity Laser Hair Removal's triad of modern laser technologies promises safe and effective treatment during each session of 30 minutes or less. Although these treatments can be effective in permanently reducing unwanted fuzz, most patients require 8–12 sessions for full reduction due to hair-growth dormancy, laser-absorption rates, and hard-to-locate follicle foxholes.

"Book your appointment as soon as you buy it. They're pretty busy which is a good sign."
"Great people to work with--very friendly and helpful"

Nemours' cystic fbrosis (CF) teams teach children and their families about CF and how to manage the condition on a daily basis. Our CF programs are nationally accredited as CF Care Centers by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Membership in this network helps us to ensure that children living with cystic fibrosis get the expert treatment they need to live longer, healthier lives.
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease that affects the lungs and digestive system. It makes kids who have it more vulnerable to repeated lung infections. This is because it causes the lungs to produce thick, sticky mucus that clogs the airways. The intestines are also affected in a way that interferes with the body's ability to digest and absorb food.
Our team of health care providers works together to support your child and family, educating you about cystic fibrosis treatment and how to manage the condition on a daily basis. We focus on meeting the needs of our patients from birth to age 18.
Nemours offers:
- newborn screening
- diagnostic testing, the gold standard of which is a sweat test performed in one of our state-of-the-art laboratories
- cystic fibrosis treatment for newly diagnosed infants and children
- long-term care plans
- assistance with transitioning our teenage patients to adult CF programs

bObles is a playful interior environment for children - with a design their parents would love to place within their homes. The tumbling animals can be used as furniture, but is meant for play. The whole idea is to enhance the childrens motor skills while playing! All the tumbling animals can stand alone and will in each their own way influence the motor skill development in a positive direction, but to have more tumbling animals - 4, 8 or 15 different tumbling animals together will give enormous opportunities for bodily development and hereby motor skills.
The Elephant is so well thought out that if you had to buy one piece of furniture for your child, you would have to buy this! Place the small child in the curve between the legs of the elephant and it works as a back rest.
The elephant has a rocking function where the child is challenged and stimulated while sitting. Later on, the child can stand on top of the elephants feet, which challenges the childs balance while standing. The elephant is also good to lie across, both when you lie flat on your stomach and on your back. Last but not least, purely functional it is a great chair to sit on, both for the child and their parents.
Material: Toxin and phthalate-free EVA foam
Brand: bObles
Origin: Imported
It's no wonder bObles kids' furniture has earned a place in NYC's Museum of Modern Art (which has also included the brand's products in its shop as one of the finest examples of modern Danish design). Founded by sisters Bolette and Louise Blædel in 2005, bObles kids' furniture is striking, multi-functional, and appeals to kids and adults alike. Each animal-shaped piece seamlessly transforms in a way that engages tots' creativity and motor skills — and looks right at home in the sleekest living rooms.

CEO, Better Government Association
As a veteran investigative journalist, Andy Shaw was a natural fit for the Better Government Association (BGA). Hired as executive director in 2009 and promoted to CEO in 2011, Mr. Shaw prepared to lead the company in a new direction. He sought not only to expose corrupt government, but also to propose remedies for change.
Interviewing him on the anniversary of his last assignment with ABC 7, I asked Mr. Shaw if he misses the 'thrill of the chase' ever since he shifted to the corporate world. He smiled, recalling fond memories of his coverage of the 2009 Presidential Inauguration, when Washington, DC, was completely shut down and the ABC news team had to travel, on foot, to all locations in frigid temps. "I feel an enormous sense of relief," he says. "As much as I enjoyed news coverage, especially on big events like the inauguration, it was one of the hardest assignments I'd ever had. On the other hand, it was very rewarding because it was a piece of history. So even though it was fun to be there, it's a great relief to watch from a distance." (A little factoid – the day I met with Mr. Shaw was also the day of President Obama's 2013 Inauguration. Fate?)
Mr. Shaw may have stepped off the reporting field, but that doesn't mean he's out of touch with the journalism world completely. "At the end of the day, I'm a writer first," he says. "I love to put words to put words to paper, tell stories and create images with words. I write a monthly column for Shore Magazine and a weekly column in the Sun-Times. I like to keep my head in the game because, even though I run a non-profit, I'm still a journalist at heart."
Mr. Shaw says he left ABC because he was burned out after 30-plus yeas in the news business. "The last thing I expected to do when I left ABC was run an organization," he says, "but I knew how government should work, having covered it all those years. And since the government was a mess at all levels, I thought joining the BGA was a great opportunity to rebuild a great organization that had fallen on hard times, make a difference and demand the government perform better."
Taking the lessons he learned throughout his career as a writer/reporter and pairing them with skills he acquired as BGA's executive director, Mr. Shaw was more than prepared for the position as CEO, even though he'd never headed up an organization. "I never worked for a non-profit before, so thankfully our board of directors, donors and friends helped me acquire the necessary organizational skills when I was executive director. And four years later, we can point to a lot of successes, a lot of results, that suggest the government is on the mend – slowly but surely."
Trying to rebuild a watchdog organization requires a lot of public outreach, and Mr. Shaw says the single biggest skill he brought to the table early on in his tenure with the BGA was communication. "I'm a professional communicator. So as we tried to rebuild the organization, I had to communicate our mission, goals and tools for change. Also, a lot of people already knew me, so I had a level of credibility. That's hard to achieve if you're not visible. Credibility though visibility and communication skills were key."

Computational Science and Engineering
CITRIS sponsors a Designated Emphasis in Computational Data Science and Engineering (DE-CDSE), a program that is committed to the development of new curricula and expanded programs aimed at development and propagation of the use of numerical and computational tools to further research across multiple disciplines.
The dramatic increase in computational power for mathematical modeling and simulation has led to the fact that scientific computing now plays a significant role in the analysis of complex physical systems, such as computer chip manufacturing, battery modeling, turbine design, aircraft prototype testing, climate change and star formation, to name a few. More recently, too much data has become another compelling problem: radio telescopes, DNA sequencers, particle accelerators, sensor networks, social networks and the internet all collect much more data than humans can analyze and understand. In this case one needs to use statistics and machine learning, along with data visualization, to extract useful information from the data. The solutions to the mentioned problems share many mathematical, statistical and computational techniques in common.
