About Us
The Madisons of Montpelier Chapter
Charter Number 412
Organized in Orange, VA, 23 Sep 2003
Anne Hoffman Winn (Mrs. John W.), Organizing President
Dear Virginia Daughters,
I met with Becky from the Hampton Roads Maritime Museum and the Regency Society regarding the ladies Tea to be held at the HRMM (or Nauticus as some may know it better) on Feb 22nd 2015. The initial plan is to have the Regency Society provide dressed ladies at 4 stations to host a tea for interested patron to the museum on the 22nd. These ladies and gentleman will discuss what Norfolk was like during the War of 1812 and what happened when they learned about the signing of the treaty of Ghent.
Our part will be to assist these actors with the tea. If you have period dress to wear that will be most appropriate. We will pour tea, restock as necessary and direct guests around the gallery of the museum. Knowledge of the Treaty of Ghent is not necessary but and basic understanding would be a good idea.
The museum is looking at funding for the food & items needed for this event.
Please mark your calendars and plan to attend the event in Norfolk. Also, please pass this along to your members that may be interested in assisting on the afternoon of the 22nd. If there are any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

Veterans graves that were marked were: John Barger 1794 - 1845; Michael Coiner 1790 - 1864; Jacob Coyner 1789-1874; John Koiner 1792-1852; Philip Koiner 1776-1849; and Gabriel Stickley 1791-1856.
Prior to the marking, Nancy Sorrells gave a presentation on "Augusta County and the Forgotten War of 1812". American Legion Post 340 presented colors and played taps.
200th Anniversary of the Burning of Washington, DC
(The following was is from: http://blog.fold3.com/the-burning-of-washington-august-24-1814/)
This August 24 and 25 mark the 200th anniversary of the British burning of Washington DC during the War of 1812.
Prior to the burning, 4,500 British soldiers went up against 5,000 Americans (mostly militiamen) in a battle at Bladensburg, Maryland, just 4 miles northeast of Washington. Though the Americans had the advantage of numbers and artillery, the untried and poorly led militiamen didn't stand much of a chance against the better trained and disciplined British soldiers. Three hours of battle had the Americans fleeing as fast as they could, while the British commanding officers, General Ross and Admiral Cockburn, led a portion of their men into Washington, which was now undefended.
Leaving private homes and property alone for the most part, the British began burning government buildings, starting with Capitol building, which at the time also housed the Supreme Court and Library of Congress. They then proceeded to the White House, which had been abandoned by President Madison and his wife shortly before. (Dolley Madison is famous for staying at the White House as long as possible and directing the rescue of a portrait of George Washington, among other valuables.)
The following day, Cockburn and Ross organized the burning of other buildings, like the State and War departments and the Treasury, which had started to burn the night before but had been doused by a rainstorm. Cockburn ordered the destruction of the printing presses of a newspaper that had been particularly critical of him, but the U.S. Patent Office was saved from destruction by the pleas of its superintendent. The British went to the Navy Yard, but it had already been burned the previous day by the Americans to keep it from falling into British hands. A contingent of soldiers also went to Greenleaf Point Federal Arsenal to destroy the gunpowder and cannons there but ended up causing an explosion that killed or maimed many of them.
Later that day, a huge storm blew in that wreaked havoc on the city, downing trees and ripping roofs off buildings. After the storm had died down somewhat, the British officers ordered a retreat of their men during the night, before the American forces could regroup.

22 year old woman | Fox Chapel, PA, USA | Seeking men 21-28 within 50 miles of Pittsburgh, PA
Free and easy down the road I go
Oh man, here it goes. The most important thing to me: I want someone that can keep me driven and support my goals, and that I can do the same to. No room for the people that drag me down, I have bigger plans. I dread a boring, monotonous life - call me a dreamer but I would love to "see the world" and knock some lines off this ever-growing bucket list of mine. If you can hold an intelligent conversation with me, and still be a little crazy, you get points! I'm also very sarcastic, I really can't help it. So here's to hoping that everyone understands it, or it will make communicating pretty awkward, and I don't do well in awkward situations. Working out and eating healthy is also pretty important, not only for staying healthy but burning as much stress as possible. I try (try being the key word here) to work out everyday, I could tell you all you need to know about healthy eating, but you better believe that I can binge eat a container of chocolate-peanut butter ice cream like it's my job (and then go work all those empty calories off!). I love being active; love to hike, bike, swim, dance - pretty much anything you can think that involves not sitting around. I'll watch any sport that's on, and I love going to sporting events (Pirates, Steelers, and Pens! I'm a Pittsburgh girl). I've grown up about 15 minutes outside of Pittsburgh my whole life, and would I like to stay here? If an opportunity presented itself, then sure! But I'm allowing my job search to take me wherever it pleases if I'm not bound by anything. Speaking of jobs (or future jobs I should say), I'm currently in nursing school obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, and I fully intend of taking that a step or two further and getting a Masters Degree in practitioning or becoming a Nurse Anesthesist. So what am I looking for? Someone who is exciting and fun, and yet still down to earth and laid back. Got to be motivated, whats the thrill in being mediocre? I really like someone who can be honest and speak their mind about any situation, and can communicate like an intellectual! I like a guy who looks damn good in a suit, and who also likes wearing them. And lastly, a guy that knows how to please a lady and turn on that charm every now and then...or just never turn it off. There ya go, for now. Are you out there somewhere?
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports
Aerobics, Running, Skiing, Tennis / Racquet sports, VolleyBall, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.

Are Artificial Sweeteners Safe?
In other words, artificial sweeteners allow people to stick to a good diet for a longer period of time, she says. In a diet, artificial sweeteners are considered "free foods." The sugar substitutes don't count as a carbohydrate, a fat, or any other exchange.
"These products can be useful when used appropriately for people like diabetics who need to control their sugar intake and in overweight people," agrees Ruth Kava, PhD, RD, director of nutrition for the American Council on Science and Health (ACSH) in New York City.
Artificial sweeteners do not affect blood sugar levels, but some foods containing artificial sweeteners can still affect blood sugar because of other carbohydrates or proteins in these foods. In other words, while foods that contain artificial sweeteners may be sugar-free, they may not be carbohydrate-free.
Just because a food contains artificial sweeteners instead of sugar is not carte blanche for grazing, Kava points out.
"The real key to weight loss is calories," Kava points out. "If you substitute a diet soda for a sugar soda, you save 100 calories, but if you eat 15 sugar-free cookies [which have calories] instead of two regular cookies, you may not be helping yourself at all," she says.
"If somebody is trying to lose weight and cut back on calories, artificial sweeteners can add flavor to unsweetened beverages or other products," says Michael F. Jacobson, PhD, executive director of the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) in Washington. That said, "somebody who consumes a lot of artificially sweetened foods should think twice about their diet and ought to be eating real food," he tells WebMD.
"I don't think [artificial sweeteners] are needed at all," he says. "I fear that in some cases people have a diet soda for lunch and then have a couple of tablespoons of ice cream -- giving up the saved calories," he says.
Using sugar substitutes instead of sugar can lower your risk of tooth decay, but "the acid in diet soda still could contribute to dental erosion," Jacobson points out.

Ge 26:34,35 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite: Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah.
Ge 27:1 And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I. And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
Ge 35:28 And the days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore years.

Ge 28:1-5 And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, and said unto him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan. Arise, go to Padanaram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father; and take a wife from there of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother. And God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a multitude of people; And give you the blessing of Abraham, and to your seed with you; that you may inherit the land wherein you are a stranger, which God gave unto Abraham.

Abortion industry converts tell the inside story
News and commentary from the Pro-Life Action League
Today I mailed a package of 32 newborn diapers to Summit Medical Center, an abortion clinic in Detroit. Why? Because I promised to.
On Monday, I got a call from a phone number in Michigan from someone who had opened up the "care package" I sent to 569 abortion clinics on January 22, the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, which included a pair of plastic handcuffs. In my signed note in the package, I linked the handcuffs to abortionist Naresh Patel, arrested last month for fraud, and said to call me for help getting out of the abortion business.
The Michigan caller was angry about the package, and said I should be sending her diapers, not handcuffs, so she can help women coming for prenatal care. I said I would and asked for the address, which proved to be that of Summit Medical Center on McNichols Road in Detroit, Michigan.
We talked for 10 minutes. The caller offered the usual argument that she's helping women by providing abortion. Several times she declared that this is a "cruel, ugly world." The despair of that comment really struck me.
With help from Lynn Mills, a pro-life activist in Detroit, I was later able to identify the caller as Summit medical director Anise Burrell. Lynn also confirmed that Summit does see some women for prenatal care.
Today I sent the diapers to Ms. Burrell, along with a ironically appropriate greeting card—on the front, "A new baby changes everything"; inside: "Except its own diapers." Here's what I wrote inside:
Dear Anise,
Enclosed is the package of diapers I promised to send you when we spoke on the phone earlier this week.
I'm grateful that you took the trouble to call and talk to me for ten minutes about the issue of abortion and your part in it. What stands out to me most from our conversation is your calling this is a "cruel, ugly world." You used that phrase at least twice, once in reference to the children you say you're sparing from it.
I agree that there is much cruelty in the world, and much ugliness. But from my perspective, abortion only makes the world crueler and uglier.
Abortion itself is ugly; few can bear to look at the images of what abortion does to its unborn victims. And it's cruel to the child, whose life is ended only weeks after it has begun.But abortion is also cruel to women. It's a cruel society that says to a woman, "To be free you must participate in the killing of your own child."
I know that many women face a desperate situation when they turn to abortion. But I haven't given up hope that we can make this world kinder and beautiful world by offering women something better than abortion, which too often leaves them trapped in the ugliness and cruelty you lament.
I hope you can put these 32 newborn diapers to use. But I also hope you will reflect on all those children—especially the next 32 scheduled to be aborted at Summit—who won't live to have their diapers changed by someone who cares for them.
Yours for Life,
Eric ScheidlerP. S. If you ever want to talk again, you've got my number.
I hope that Anise will call me back someday, and that we can talk about how she can get out of the abortion business and make this a kinder and more beautiful world by offering real help to women and their children.
Legislators in North Carolina did the right thing in July 2013 when they voted to raise the quality standards for abortion clinics in the state.
The hand-wringing response from the abortion industry was entirely predictable, with Planned Parenthood's vice president for public affairs, Melissa Reed, calling it "the most restrictive access to safe and legal abortions this state has ever seen."
That was then.
But now, more than a year an a half later, the North Carolina abortion industry is perfectly fine with the proposed regulations, which were submitted by the state's Department of Health and Human Services December 1. The public comment period on the new rules ends (January 30).
Why such an about-face?
The new legislation authorized the state's Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to propose new regulations governing abortion clinics. Incredibly, the DHHS actually invited employees of Planned Parenthood and other abortion clinics to be part of the committee that drafted the proposed new regulations that are now under consideration. [Continue reading ...]
On the anniversary of Roe v. Wade last week, the Pro-Life Action League mailed a "care package" to every abortionist in the country. The package contained a photo of recently arrested abortionist Naresh Patel and a pair of plastic handcuffs.
On the back of the photo, League Executive Director Eric Scheidler wrote his phone number and a note saying, "Could you be next? If you want to get out of the abortion business, give me a call."
The Handcuffs Project has generated more response than we expected—phone calls and text messages from abortion workers, tweets from Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards, and a host of media coverage, both friendly and hostile.
Perhaps the most surprising bit of media response was Cosmopolitan magazine asking for an interview with Eric, which lasted 40 minutes and produced a surprisingly fair write up of the project. Read the article here and stay tuned for more news on the incredible response the project has received so far.
League staffer Urszula and volunteer Kathy prepare the "handcuffs" care package [Photo by John Jansen]
Today—the forty-second anniversary of the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision—the Pro-Life Action League sent an special care package to every abortion clinic in the United States.
Inside: a picture of Naresh Patel, the Oklahoma abortionist arrested last month, along with a pair of plastic handcuffs and a signed note from me reading, "Could you be next? If you want to get out of the abortion business, give me a call." I also included my cell phone number.
This project was inspired by the arrest of abortionist Naresh Patel last month at his abortion clinic for telling women that they were pregnant when whey weren't so he could sell them abortion drugs. Patel has been charged with fraud and racketeering, and his Oklahoma clinic remains closed.
Patel first came to public notice in 1992 when he was investigated for burning the bodies of 55 aborted babies in a field east of Shawnee. Despite public outrage, Patel was not charged with a crime because he hadn't violated any laws. He has also been accused by several women of sexually assaulting them during abortion procedures.
It's no surprise that someone willing to kill unborn babies for a living would turn to crime, and Patel is not alone. Abortionists have been charged with crimes ranging from tax fraud and dealing drugs to rape and even murder. Some of the most notorious offenders include: [Continue reading ...]
On December 9, abortionist Naresh Patel was arrested at his Oklahoma abortion facility for racketeering and fraud, inspiring the Pro-Life Action League's Handcuffs Project.
Patel is not alone as an abortionist who has turned to crime. Here's a list of some of the most notorious abortionists and their crimes:
Paul Deitche speaks about his experience as a post-abortive father at St. Theresa Church in Palatine, Illinois
On Saturday, my husband Joe and I attended the Northwest Families March for Life in Palatine, Illinois, along with over a thousand other pro-lifers. Joe and I were scheduled to speak at the outdoor portion of the program.
But first there were testimonies delivered inside St. Theresa Church. One of those testimonies was from a man named Paul Deitche, who told his story for the first time. He and the woman he would eventually marry had a personal abortion story, and they had a personal life story as well.
It was 1976, and Paul was a senior in high school. His freshman girlfriend, Maureen, got pregnant. Afraid to tell her parents, she went to an abortion clinic for a pregnancy test. The test was positive and they left, planning to talk about what to do. But a clinic worker followed them to the elevator. She saw Paul's girlfriend crying, and—as clinic workers are trained to do—she talked them into coming back into the clinic and taking care of the problem so her parents would never need to know.
A year later, Maureen was pregnant again. [Continue reading ...]
In the coming days, hundreds of thousands of pro-lifers will march for life in Washington D.C., Chicago, San Francisco, and cities across the country to mark the 42nd anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
But what would happen if each of those marchers went out to their local abortion clinic for just one hour this year?
Pro-Life Action League Executive Director Eric Scheidler answers that question and issues a challenge to make your March for Life really count this year by bringing the awesome enthusiasm of these Roe v. Wade events to the front lines of your local abortion clinics this year.
Watch and share with your friends on Facebook and Twitter!
On Thursday, January 22, Planned Parenthood of Illinois will be holding a fundraising gala to celebrate the horrific anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in the U.S. And the Pro-Life Action League will be there to protest!
Join us as we show Planned Parenthood's supporters what abortion really looks like, and send the message that abortion is nothing to celebrate:
Event: Protest of Planned Parenthood's Roe v. Wade Gala
When: Thursday, January 22nd, 5:00 p.m.
Where: City Winery, 1200 W. Randolph St., Chicago (Map)
Bring your friends and your warm clothes, we'll provide the signs. Mark the 42nd anniversary of Roe by being a voice for the babies who cannot speak for themselves!
Admitting that he "bought the lie" that abortion and contraception were good for women, Dr. John Bruchalski performed abortions during his residency as part of his medical training in obstetrics and gynecology.
Then, at the invitation of a friend in the medical field, he took a trip to Mexico City in 1987. During a visited to the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, he heard a voice saying, "Why are you hurting me?"—but he pushed the voice out of his mind. But then a few years later, while on another pilgrimage, he finally realized the need to turn his life around and re-dedicate himself to God. [Continue reading ...]
With last week's release of Planned Parenthood's 2013-2014 annual report [PDF], we learn that the nation's largest abortion chain is still the nation's largest abortion chain.
To be precise, 327,653 babies were killed at Planned Parenthood facilities in 2013—a slight increase over the previous year. We also learn from the report that Planned Parenthood received over half a billion dollars in taxpayer funding in 2013, and that their figures for cancer screenings, prenatal services, and adoption referrals were all down from the previous year.
But one aspect in particular that has yet to attract much attention is Planned Parenthood's statistics on the number of so-called "emergency contraception" (hereafter: EC) kits distributed in 2013, and how these figures compare in previous years' annual reports, as well as to their abortion numbers for corresponding years.
In 2013, Planned Parenthood distributed 1,440,495 EC kits. Compare this with their figures going back to the beginning of this century: [Continue reading ...]

This is fantastic! I can't wait to make and try it.
Right on, girl. Keep me posted on how you dig it, Debra-Ellen. *hug!*
This looks awesome!! You rock Syl!
Thanks, Marika! If you try it out make sure to let me know, sister!
This odd assortment of ingredients is something I definitely want to try. I might substitute almond milk for hemp milk, but I love the idea of adding half an avocado. I tried that with something else recently and it gave it such a nice creamy texture.
Thank you Sylvia for this creative healthy recipe!
You're welcome, Tanya! I love how you're willing to step outside your comfy cozy zone and adventurize your eating experience. Almond milk is a great option, too. I used hemp milk because hempseed it's touted to having the perfect 3:1 ratio of Omega fatty acids needed by the human body, which are crucial for eye health. And, I'm totally with you on how just 1/2 an avocado can transform the texture tremendously — it puts the "smoothilicious" into smoothies!
This looks incredible. Also a great way to introduce my children to something delicious and good for them. Off to get some hemp seeds and hemp milk. Please share more!
Sweet! Get those kiddies on it, Kim! You can always add stevia or dates to add sweetness. And, frozen bananas, coconut flesh or tahini to add thickness and texture.
Smoothies are such a great way to sneak in foods they don't like to eat. When I was a kid my mom would sneak in all kinds of foods — like spinach, asparagus or cauliflower! The taste would disappear behind the sweetness of the fruit. She even did it with soups. I went through this weird phase where I hated chewing so I wouldn't eat to the point that I eventually made myself go anemic. Yikes! Amazing how freaking out my mom as a child catalyzed her creativity and eventually my love for everything smoothies, eh?
This sounds delicious. Thank you for sharing, Sylvia. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks, Danielle! Thanks for sharing the love, girl! xo

following conditions Davis must commit no crime against the laws of the state he must report to his Comal County supervisor twice per week beginning Dec 10 or as directed by the supervising officer he must submit to a urine analysis breath analysis and he cannot consume narcotics controlled substances or any alcoholic beverages Davis pretrial supervisor Jack Williamson of the Comal County Probation

Williamson said probation officials can check the post mark on letters make phone calls to Davis home and send certified mail that must be personally received by Davis He also said it is difficult to monitor any person daily whether they are in this county or not The thing that is different in this case is that we dont have facetoface contact If he were here we wouldnt speak to him as often We are

Would you be willing to answer a few brief questions about PlayStation Forums?
When I read it on Amazon it looks like you have to pay for a month of service before getting the free month and the free game... did anyone else read it that way?
From what i read, i dont think you have to pay for the first month. When you activate the free plan, it with last for 30 days or until your used up the 250 MB data. After the data plan expires in 30 days, you get a code to redeem for a free psn game. You must cancel it before it expires or it will auto charge you for the next month.
I probably wont end up getting this
Ps vita wifi only

thats a little 430 , I ordeed all this on amazon . no tax so yayyy
Dear Fellow First Edition Buyers,
In my opinion, the first edition bundle doesn't hold the same amount of value it once did. I braved the people that called the the 3g version of the PS Vita useless. I also braved the people who said the case is extremely cheap and ugly, and that Little Deviants won't be a good game. I really wanted the Vita, and I wanted it as soon as possible. I couldn't have been more excited for the playstation vita. That was until sony gave us, "fans" the cold shoulder. These new bundle options have really offended me in some ways.
Now there, I'm not someone that gets offended when someone throws me a bone. But I feel like the first edition bundle got the short end of the stick and here's why:
Prior to 3G launch bundle announcement:
The first edition bundle was the only one out of the three that came with extras. This made it more appealing and you actually saved a bit of money than if you bought these extras separately. We would value the 3g vita at $300, Little Deviants at $30, 4gb card at $20 dollars, and the case for let's say $20 even though it's probably not worth that much. That means that we saved approximately $20. This was known as the free case fiasco. (People kept on saying that all you really got was a free case) But I still personally felt that receiveing the system one week in advance made this bundle worth the purchase.
After the 3G launch bundle announcement:
You can no longer value the 3g vita system in the first edition bundle as $300. This is because the $300 dollar 3G vita now comes with an 8gb card. This is double the amount of memory that the first edition bundle comes with. Since an 8gb card is worth $30 you subtract that from the $300 total. This makes the system $270, Little Deviants at $30 dollars, 4gb card at $20 dollars, and the case for the approximately $20. The total for this bundle is $340. Which actually makes the first edition buyers pay $10 EXTRA dollars for getting it a week early. You don't even save any money!!!!!!!!!!
So now it feels like we pay 10 extra dollars to get a system one week early to get a seemingly free game valued at 30 dollars that we can't even pick. Sure people say that the first edition bundle comes with a case and little deviants for free. But technically thats out of the 50 extra dollars you spend on the first edition bundle. And if you read my mathematical logic it really is 60 extra dollars when you look at the 8gb card to 4gb card reduction.
I really want a vita. Really really badly. And I'm not trashing the system or bad mouthing it. But I feel a little disrespected, being a loyal sony fan. I wanted to get this system early. And in truth I still need to. That's why I'm asking you, my fellow gamers, to not settle for less. Lets get more value for our vitas. We are loyal sony fans. We want to be heard.
PS Why am I kind of angry. I'm a broke college student paying for himself but seriously I know my math, read it, join my resistance. R=V/I by that I mean e-mail sony.
I wonder if this means there's any possibility of preorder bonuses for the Wifi model (This bundle is pretty much a preorder bonus as it is only for preorders and day 1 buyers, extremely limited).
you must have a credit card on file thats where there trying to get you. just like the psplus free month that comes with new playstations now. well when my original fat died i got a new one the next day and thank god i read the card it was on because in small print it said you would be charged for THREE months if you did not cancel before the month was up.

Technically both the 3G launch bundle and the first edition launch bundle are preorder bonuses/bundles. I doubt that the wifi version will get something bundled in with it. Unless by some magical way sony decides to include an 8gb card in both the first edition bundle and 3G launch bundle and then chooses to include a 4gb card with the wifi version of the system. Honestly, if they did that, not many people would be as angry about the priority memory. Hence, an increase in sales for the system hardware.
Well Australia (and UK I think) got special earphones and other stuff as a preorder bonus. I don't necessarily mean bundles. Just preorder bonuses in general.
well today im goin to gamestop to try an switch my preorder, ill let you guys know what happens

Long-time THS head custodian Charles Clark once again received national recognition for his impact on our students. Previously Mr Clark was honored in 2013 with the National Life Group Life Changer of the Year national grand prize and has been featured in the Washington Post. No one on the Trinity campus has done more for students who need that "something extra" than Charles Clark.

Mia Langi, English teacher and volleyball coach, was chosen by the faculty of Trinity to be the 2015 Teacher of the Year. Ms. Langi graduated from Trinity, coming through Oakwood Terrace and Euless Jr High. She has been back with us teaching and coaching for 5 years, 3 of those as head coach. She loves her calling to teach, coach and mentor and is proud to be the first Tongan to receive this award. She was described by one of her fellow teachers as "calm yet passionate, caring yet competitive, loving yet fierce, sweet yet intense."
Other nominees for this honor were Marci Ward (social studies teacher and department chair), Michelle Johnson (science teacher), and Melissa Mieyr (CATE teacher and department chair).
Trinity was honored to host a group from Nike who was in town during the college football championship. The group was led by Vanessa Wallace, THS alum who now works for Nike, and included people from across the U.S. The purpose was to help the company get a feel for what high school athletics is all about, especially here in Texas. They started with a tour of Pennington, and then were welcomed to the MAC with the THS band, cheerleaders, drill team, Trojan Crew, football players, and a contingent of athletes from all the Trinity sports. After a tour of the MAC, the Nike visitors entered the gym to the fight song and then interacted with our athletes in a panel discussion. The day ended with the football players teaching our visitors the Sipi Tau and then singing the Alma Mater around the flag. One Nike senior leader who has traveled the world and been to many events like this said this was hands down the best experience he has had -- authentic and connected. A perfect description of Trinity.

Profile: So much, so little for Liverpool great Gerrard
"Taken as a whole, in his club career — which began when he walked through the doors of Liverpool's academy at the age of eight — Gerrard has scaled almost all the heights. From the header that sparked the comeback to end all comebacks against Milan in Istanbul to the sensational 35-yard thunderbolt that took the 2006 FA Cup final to extra time, he has swaggered through his Anfield career with the audacity of a comic-book hero. He came third in the voting for the Ballon d'Or in 2005 and was voted the greatest player in Liverpool's history by fans in a 2013 poll. No less a judge than Zinedine Zidane observed in 2009: "Is he the best in the world? He might not get the attention of Messi and Ronaldo, but yes, I think he might be.""
My piece for AFP on Steven Gerrard's departure from Liverpool can be read here.
French football quotes of the year 2014
"There's already one of ours who's up there [Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa], and I wish him the best. Rémy, I think he deserves something else than Newcastle. I wouldn't go there. You must get bored shitless in Newcastle."
– Montpellier president Louis Nicollin on reports linking Rémy Cabella with a move to Newcastle United
"At Milan, they treated me like a king. People were courteous, welcoming and always willing to help. At a restaurant, in France, you sit down and not only do they make you wait for a very long time, but they treat you badly. It was disconcerting, but now I've adapted: if someone treats me badly, I treat them badly in return. I'm a real Parisian now."
– Paris Saint-Germain's Thiago Silva on the joys of life in the capital
Loïc Féry: "Thank you."
Christian Gourcuff: "I'm not saying thank you to you [vous]."
Loïc Féry: "So we're vous-ing each other now?"
Christian Gourcuff: "Yes, yes, we're vous-ing each other now."
– Terse exchange between Lorient president Loïc Féry and outgoing coach Christian Gourcuff, caught on camera by Canal+ after Lorient's 4-1 loss at home to Lille on the season's final day
"For him to be bad is one thing, but for him to be stupid is something else."
– Nice captain Didier Digard hits out at referee Antony Gautier after being sent off for handball during a 1-1 draw at Saint-Étienne. He later apologised
"It's not glasses he needs – it's a Labrador!"
– Lyon midfielder Clément Grenier to referee Ruddy Buquet after a stormy 2-1 loss at home to Saint-Étienne
"I'm surprised by the unacceptable and immature attitude of Romao, who made vulgar remarks towards [Canal + pundit] Pierre Ménès and me because he couldn't think of anything else to say after fouling me but insult me. I quote: 'Go and suck that fat Pierre Ménès.' Unacceptable."
– Bafétimbi Gomis, then with Lyon, on a dispute with Marseille midfielder Alaixys Romao
"So then Mr Gomis, about the 'son of a whore' and 'tramp' that you yelled at me on the pitch yesterday – I should tweet it, right?"
– Lorient midfielder Mathieu Coutadeur suggests Gomis is no angel himself
"The atmosphere on the pitch? The French were too arrogant, as usual."
- Sweden Under-21 player Kiese Thelin after his side eliminated their French counterparts in an Under-21 European Championship play-off
"A coach is above all someone who works in the technical domain. And there are coaches who don't coach, like Laurent Blanc at Paris, where it's [Blanc's assistant] Jean-Louis Gasset who takes care of it. I don't like this model. A coach who doesn't control the pitch, as far as I'm concerned, is not a coach."
– Christian Gourcuff
"I passed my coaching exams. Mr Gourcuff passed them 30 years ago. He should take them again and see that the job has evolved."
– Blanc responds
Review: New money rises in England as old powers slip
"Manchester City and Chelsea, England's nouveaux riches, appear poised to dominate the Premier League in 2015, with traditional powerhouses Manchester United and Liverpool working their way through periods of transition. United began this year as champions and Liverpool came agonisingly close to succeeding them, but it was City who prevailed in the 2013-14 title race and it is Chelsea who approach the New Year in pole position."
My AFP review of the year 2014 in the Premier League can be read here.
Analysis: Back to drawing board for limping Liverpool
"With Sturridge and Balotelli both injured, the powerful but limited Rickie Lambert — a close-season recruit from Southampton — started up front, but lasted only 45 minutes. Both he and Balotelli were signed to provide alternatives to the mobility and guile of Sturridge, but in the former Chelsea striker's absence, Liverpool look bereft of pace and inventiveness at centre-forward. Last season, when Liverpool narrowly missed out on a first league title in 24 years, their dominance of possession enabled them to push and pull teams out of position before either Suarez or Sturridge would pounce. With neither Suarez nor Sturridge in the team, there is an aimlessness to their ball circulation, and against Basel that was only exacerbated by the nerves of the Anfield crowd."
My take on the reasons behind Liverpool's recent struggles following their Champions League elimination at Basel's hands can be read here.
CNN World Sport: Champions League review
I made a fleeting appearance on CNN's World Sport programme on Wednesday to look back at Tuesday's Champions League matches – you can watch it here. Fans of unkempt beards and wild hand gestures are in for a treat.
Analysis: New-look Liverpool left in starting blocks
"It is in attack, however, that Liverpool's problems are most clearly apparent. While Raheem Sterling continues to excite, it was only in the impressive victory at Spurs that Liverpool showed anything reminiscent of the dazzling football with which they laid waste to their opponents last season. A thigh injury to Daniel Sturridge has robbed them of their attacking spearhead and Mario Balotelli is yet to convince as a replacement for the mercurial Suárez. Where the scurrying Suarez fizzed with energy and enterprise, Balotelli has a tendency to amble around the pitch, making it harder for Liverpool to pull opposition defences out of shape."
My take on the reasons behind Liverpool's underwhelming start to the season for AFP can be found here.
Analysis: Falcao, Di María herald Man United's age of excess
"United's absence from European competition for the first time since 1989 has not prevented them from acquiring elite players, but the new signings do not appear to have been the fruit of meticulous forward planning. Whereas many observers have pinpointed central defence and central midfield as United's weak points, they finished the transfer window having signed one central midfielder, a winger, a striker, and three players who played at left-back at the World Cup. As former England striker Gary Lineker joked on Twitter: "If you can't defend, just out score 'em!" Two of those left-backs can play in other positions — Rojo at centre-back, Blind as a holding midfielder — but like Di María and Falcao, their hastily finalised transfers, ratified late in the window, suggested an element of panic."
My analysis of Manchester United's transfer-window dealings for AFP can be read here.
Analysis: Di María joins Man United in robes of saviour
"The Dutchman has introduced an innovative 3-4-1-2 formation since taking up his role in July, but there is no obvious role for Di María in the system. His attacking instincts would have to be curbed at left wing-back and in any case, United did not lavish £29 million on Shaw in order to leave the England teenager on the bench. Di María can operate in the centre of the pitch, but if Van Gaal is determined to use Juan Mata as a number 10, it would leave him with only one berth in the team for an orthodox central midfielder. With Rooney and Robin van Persie also apparently guaranteed to start, Van Gaal may have to consider changing tack if he is to give all of his attacking stars the best conditions in which to work."
I wrote a piece for AFP on where Manchester United's record signing Ángel di María will fit into their starting XI, and you can read it here.
Feature: Five great Premier League team goals
"During a 7-0 end-of-season rout of Everton, Arsenal scored a dazzling goal that showcased the sharply honed creative gifts of Dennis Bergkamp. The Dutchman began the move by chesting a Lauren throw-in to Edu, who fizzed a pass forward into the feet of Robin van Persie. Van Persie laid the ball off to Bergkamp and he bisected the visiting defence with an exquisite chipped pass that allowed Vieira to steam in and nonchalantly loft the ball over goalkeeper Richard Wright."
In honour of Chelsea's sublime second goal in their 3-1 win at Burnley on Monday, I've compiled a list of five great Premier League team goals for AFP. You can see the list (with videos) here.
Soccer Central podcast: Premier League review
I spoke to my friends at Sportsnet's Soccer Central podcast about the opening round of Premier League fixtures, Louis van Gaal's defensive problems at Manchester United, the battle for number-one status at Chelsea between Thibaut Courtois and Petr Čech, and Tony Pulis's abrupt departure at Crystal Palace. You can listen here.
Analysis: Man United false start shows depth of malaise
"With untried youngsters Tyler Blackett and Jesse Lingard in the line-up, United looked uncertain in Van Gaal's favoured 3-4-1-2 formation and at half-time the manager abandoned it, reverting to a 4-2-3-1 shape. But although United equalised through new captain Wayne Rooney, Sigurdsson soon restored Swansea's lead and the hosts' attempts to find a second equaliser were incoherent. Juan Mata was largely anonymous, despite the fact that United's new system is designed partly to give the Spanish playmaker optimal conditions in which to work. And with Marouane Fellaini — gangling symbol of Moyes's failures — thrown on to chase high balls into the Swansea box, the final stages of the game resembled the darkest days of the previous campaign."
My piece for AFP on why Manchester United's opening-day defeat by Swansea City suggests that Louis van Gaal will not be able to revive their fortunes overnight can be read here.
Feature: Premier League youngsters face loan lottery
"Gaël Kakuta, a precociously skilful attacking midfielder, joined Chelsea from French club Lens at the age of 16 in 2007, sparking a row that momentarily saw the English side banned from signing players. After he made an eye-catching debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers in November 2009, then-coach Carlo Ancelotti was moved to declare: "At that age I have never seen a player with this talent." However, with established players such as Joe Cole and Florent Malouda cemented in Chelsea's starting XI, Kakuta found his route to the first team blocked. There followed a succession of underwhelming loan moves — to Fulham, Bolton Wanderers, French club Dijon, Dutch side Vitesse Arnhem, and Lazio — and at 23, his career is still awaiting take-off."
I've written a piece for AFP on the uncertain futures faced by young Premier League players who go out on loan, and you can read it here.
Report: Messi squanders chance to cement legacy
"Whereas Maradona seemed to grow with each match as Argentina surged to the title in 1986, scoring braces against England and Belgium in the quarter-finals and semi-finals, Messi appeared to shrink. After dazzling in the group phase with four goals, he made the winning goal for Ángel di María against Switzerland in the last 16, but in his own encounter with Belgium he flickered only sporadically, and in the semi-final against the Netherlands he was anonymous. Messi has now gone four games without scoring for the first time under the stewardship of coach Alejandro Sabella, misplacing his gift for making a difference at precisely the wrong time."
My final report for AFP from the World Cup, on a disappointing end to the tournament for Lionel Messi, can be read here.
Feature: Messi one step from undisputed greatness
"In his 91 appearances, [Diego] Maradona played at four World Cups and carried Argentina to two finals, turning the 1986 tournament into his own one-man show. In contrast, Messi, as Holland coach Louis van Gaal observed, "hasn't always pulled it off" at international level. So should he drift through the final, as he did the semi-final, but still end up a champion, can he be said to have matched Maradona? Judged against the lofty standards that Messi's talent demands, the trophy alone may not suffice."
Why Lionel Messi needs a signature performance in the World Cup final before he can be considered a true great. Piece here for AFP.

And 1 really good reason why ignoring it is no longer an option
Belly fat is maligned for its way of tampering with any outfit that doesn't involve a muumuu, but really there's something way worse about the stuff: When white fat expands in your abdomen, nestling deep among your organs, it sets you up for some serious health trouble. We now know that this type of fat, called visceral fat, churns out stress hormones like cortisol and inflammatory substances called cytokines that affect the body's production of insulin. The result: It's worse than just being generally overweight; you're looking at increased risks of type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
Read on for the newest information on how to lose belly fat for good.

There's one thing to like about visceral fat: It yields fairly easily to aerobic exercise. Vaporizing calories via running, biking, swimming—anything that gets your heartrate up—wins over resistance training when it comes to getting rid of the stuff. A recent study from Duke found the sweet spot: Jogging the equivalent of 12 miles a week.

Of course you know that protein's essential for a slimmer you—you couldn't have made it through the Paleo and South Beach crazes without hearing all about it. But here's why protein really needs to play a prime roll on your plate: "Your body starts to produce more insulin as you age, since your muscle and fat cells aren't responding to it properly," explains Louis Aronne, MD, Director of the Obesity Clinic at Cornell. And insulin promotes fat storage, especially around your belly (yippee!). A diet high in protein may protect you against insulin resistance, Aronne says. In one study, obese women who followed a diet for eight weeks that was roughly 30% protein, 40% carbs, and 30% fat lost significantly more fat—including visceral pudge—than women who stuck to a plan that was 16% protein, 55% carbs, and 26% fat.

This just in: Saturated fat packs on more visceral fat than polyunsaturated ones, according to a Swedish study published this past February. When subjects ate 750 more calories daily for seven weeks, either in the form of palm oil (saturated) or sunflower oil (polyunsaturated), the former gained more visceral fat while the latter gained more muscle mass and less body fat. You know the deal: polyunsaturated fats are the ones in nuts, seeds, and fish.
Head spinning? Check out this handy chart on good fats vs bad fats.
Obese people who consumed a tablespoon or two of vinegar daily for eight weeks showed significant decreases in body fat, particularly visceral fat, according to a 2009 Japanese study. "One theory is that the acetic acid in the vinegar produces proteins that burn up fat," explains Pamela Peeke, professor of medicine at the University of Maryland and author of Fight Fat After 40.
MORE: 7 Weird Reasons You're Gaining Weight
Postmenopausal women who tried yoga for 16 weeks reported significant reductions in visceral fat in one 2012 study. If you're just not that into downward dog, any sort of relaxation exercise, even simple deep breathing, can help—the key is to lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which is linked to belly fat. (Try these 2-minute stress solutions to calm down fast.)
Routinely squeaking by on five hours or less per night increases visceral fat levels, according to a 2010 Wake Forest University study. As you likely already know, 8 is the number to aim for. These 20 ways to sleep better every night can help.
Women who wake up and go to bed at the same time each evening have lower levels of body fat, according to a recent Brigham Young University study. Chaotic sleep habits cause your internal clock to go haywire, which in turn causes your body to secrete fat-storing hormones like cortisol. (Avoid these 10 more unhealthy weekend habits that set you up for a less-than-stellar week.)
Moderate exercisers who stocked up on the antioxidants found in green tea, called catechins, were more likely to lose abdominal fat while exercising than those who didn't take them. One study put the daily dose at 625 mg, the equivalent of two or three eight-ounce cups of green tea. (Follow these steps to make the perfect cup of tea.)
As in, make sure you're eating a lot of it. In a 2011 trial, subjects who increased their soluble fiber intake by 10 grams a day (the equivalent of two small apples, one cup of green peas, and one half cup of pinto beans) reduced visceral fat by 3.7% after five years.

Although sometimes referred to as the Ozark Mountains, the region is a high and deeply dissected plateau. Geologically, the area is a broad dome around the Saint Francois Mountains. The Ozark Highlands area, the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas and Oklahoma, and the Black Hills of South Dakota are the only major highland regions in the U.S. between the Appalachians and the Rocky Mountains. The Ozarks and Ouachitas are sometimes referred to collectively. For example, the ecoregion called Ozark Mountain Forests includes the Ouachita Mountains, although the Arkansas River valley and the Ouachitas, both south of the Boston Mountains, are not usually considered part of the Ozarks.
