Cub Scouts or Karate for My 7 Yr Old Son?
Hi Moms,
My 7 year old son is wanting to do karate at his school two days a week from 330-430 OR cub scouting and I'm wondering which would be the best option? I would love to have your opinion. I think that he is leading more towards karate but, the more research I do I think that scouting might be better for him. I think this would be a great way for him to make friends and build character and confidence amongst other things. My husband works ALOT so he would probably never be able to take him and I also have a 2 year old that would always be with us at events as well. So what do you guys think?????
Thank you!

I personally suggest the scouting. My son joined as a tiger and followed through to earn his Eagle. It taught him a lot and they are family oriented.

S.H. answers from St. Louis on August 28, 2010
both of my sons went thru scouts. My older one quit as a teenager. My younger son (age 14) is very active & is planning on becoming a camp counselor either next summer .....or the following. It all depends on how much he accomplishes toward Eagle Scout.
& that brings me to my next comment: with scouts, it truly does make a difference - in the long run - when it comes to college applications/placemnt & on job applications. Our troop is very active, very dedicated to keeping these boys on the move. In the past 8 months, they've .....not only camped regularly.....but have hiked more than 250 miles! (all in preparation of merit badges)
They also spend time working on community service projects....which helps teach them to serve others. The merit badges also allows for personal growth & development. The choices are broad in range & idea, & can be quite challenging - both physically & mentally.
In Cub Scouts, you will need to participate - to some extent....& with 9 yrs btwn our sons, I always had my younger son to haul around. He was welcomed & not the only baby there. Once you bridge to Boy Scouts (about 6th grade??), then it's leaders & scouts....with an occasional parent assist needed.
All in all, this has been quite a beneficial life choice for both of my sons. Scouts offers endless possiblities for positive growth & a chance to really connect with the outdoors ...& to learn life skills which could easily be lost in today's modern world. .....gee whiz, until I read this question, I hadn't realized how absolutely positive this experience has been for my family. Thank you!

S.H. answers from San Antonio on August 27, 2010
My brother was a nationally ranked competitor in karate as a child. He made friends, learned self-discipline, gained confidence, had fun... all that good stuff.
Cub scouts provides a greater variety of experiences, but not the opportunity for that type of dedication to one single craft.
Both are great things. I would suggest asking yourself (or him) these questions:
1. Why does he like these two activities? Is one more about someone else doing it and the other more about him following his own interests?
2. Is he someone who enjoys working hard at a task by himself? If not, then scouts might be a better starting place the karate because it is all organized group activities and karate is a lot more about self-discipline. BS also teaches discipline, but as far as having enough to stick with it, it's a good question to ask.
3. Is he a competitive individual or does he more enjoy socializing through team work?
4. What does he get more excited about? What do YOU get more excited about (since you'll have to, at times, force him to go to either one).
5. If your husband is not around to participate, how will he react to the father-son aspects of BS (F/S camping trips, and more traditional things like building a soap box derby car -- can you help him with things like that? I mean, do you want to?)
6. BS requires you to participate in many activities. Do you want that or would you rather watch from the sidelines?
Either experience will be great, I'm sure. It's hard to pick! Good luck and have fun.

O.S. answers from Birmingham on August 28, 2010
Scouting is wonderful but so is karate. Scouting is a wonderful thing that many fathers/sons do together and mom can't do with him. They do lots of camping events with the dad needing to be with them too. Karate is great (we recommend the ITA organization) and our children have done this for years. He can do this independently and meets friends at the same time in class. There are tournaments that the family can go to in town and out of town for fun, vacation and a little competition. It wouldn't be so obvious that dad wasn't around. It will help to build his confidence also and the self-defense skills are always a bonus!
K.U. answers from Detroit on August 28, 2010
I have not read any of the responses, but my brother did Cub Scouts when he was a kid and had a great time with his friends. Our dad worked long hours during the week so it was usually up to our mom to get him to meetings but Dad was available on the weekends and participating in anything that was on a weekend. They got really caught up in doing the Pinewood Derby every year and my brother was the district champ 2 years in a row (our dad was an engineer for Ford, so you can just imagine...)
My only thought is that you probably need to start Cub Scouts now, if he is going to do it, because of the age he is currently. Karate can always start later, even if it is next year. Or is there a way he can do both? Or would that be too much?
A.C. answers from Los Angeles on August 28, 2010
Our grandson took martial arts at 4 at his request and loved it. He will definitely gain confidence and character if it is a well run program as well as meet other children. What does he really want to do and what will be easiest for you? They are both win-win.
B.C. answers from Norfolk on August 28, 2010
It depends on what is available for karate schools and cub scout packs in your area. The scouting groups in the area we live in right now are rabid about fund raising activities. I had a pack leader call me up asking if my son would be interested in joining his group, but the minute I told him we had no one to sell anything to, he couldn't hang up on me fast enough. It might just be me, but if that's their major means for determining membership, we are not interested. Keep in mind not all packs are like this. They can vary quite a bit, so do your research and see what would be a good fit.
My son's a 1st Dan level black belt in Taekwondo and he really enjoys the classes and tournaments. He's at a level where he is now helping to teach some classes (he's 11 yrs old) and I think it's helping him learn some good leadership skills as well as getting exercise and learning self defense.

In Western Europe, materialism, secularism and a tendency to confuse historical Christianity with the prevailing culture have become the obstacles to the advancement of the Gospel. In Belgium, a country of 10 million people, however, God is still building his Church. The following story illustrates well how God is calling former Muslims to Himself.
Muslims in Belgium
Laura, not her real name, is a young woman who was born into a North African family and grew up in Brussels. Her childhood and adolescence were less than ideal and her view of Islam as practiced in her family and culture was not favourable. She fled her home situation when she reached adulthood and remained relatively free from the family pressures to marry a Muslim boy. A former classmate talked openly of his Christian faith and eventually invited her to a Sunday morning service. In that evangelical assembly she heard vibrant testimony about living faith in Christ Jesus, and was soon invited to study the Bible with one of the women of the church. Within a very few weeks Laura came to the conclusion that she would rather follow a living Messiah than a prophet in his tomb. Her smile reveals a new joy, a new life, and she continues to grow in the knowledge of God and in witness to those around her.
There are precious few like Laura, however, who have come to Christ out of the 300,000 members of the Muslim community in Belgium, mostly Moroccans and Turks. Despite the dozen or so full-time workers among Muslims in Belgium, there exists only one or two strong core groups of Muslim-background believers. Though workers are free to witness openly to Muslims in Western Europe, Muslims in Europe tend to be less open than Muslims in their countries of origin.
The Netherlands (Holland)
A similar situation exists in The Netherlands. Dutch Muslims number about 573,000 (3.7% of the population of 15.6 million people). Most Muslims in The Netherlands come from Turkey and Morocco. The vast majority originally immigrated to The Netherlands for economic reasons. There are also Muslims from Suriname (Indian and Javanese), Egypt, India, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Palestine, Somalia, Ethiopia and Bosnia.
In The Netherlands there are about 300 mosques and prayer centres as well as 30 Islamic grade schools and one Islamic high school. While there is no single institute to train Imams (Muslim leaders), Dutch universities often have Islamic courses. As in Belgium a few Christian groups are seeking to actively reach out to Muslims. Many more Dutch Christians have been mobilized for prayer for Muslims in recent years through efforts such as 30-Days of Prayer for the Muslim World.
Prayer Guide for Belgium and the Netherlands
* Pray that Muslims in The Netherlands and Belgium would understand the difference between real Christianity and the "Christian culture" surrounding them ( 2 Corinthians 4:6).
* Pray that young Muslims, such as Laura, would be presented with an invitation to hear the Gospel.
* Pray that the Christians in Belgium and The Netherlands would become more aware of the Muslims within their own neighborhoods and regions and for an increased number of workers to reach out to them (Matthew 9:37-38).
* Pray for the increasing contacts with Muslims through refugee and prison ministries, English courses and literature distribution.
Background on Belgium (World Factbook)
Belgium became independent from the Netherlands in 1830; it was occupied by Germany during World Wars I and II. It has prospered in the past half century as a modern, technologically advanced European state and member of NATO and the EU. Tensions between the Dutch-speaking Flemings of the north and the French-speaking Walloons of the south have led in recent years to constitutional amendments granting these regions formal recognition and autonomy.
Economy of Belgium
This modern, private-enterprise economy has capitalized on its central geographic location, highly developed transport network, and diversified industrial and commercial base. Industry is concentrated mainly in the populous Flemish area in the north. With few natural resources, Belgium must import substantial quantities of raw materials and export a large volume of manufactures, making its economy unusually dependent on the state of world markets. Roughly three-quarters of its trade is with other EU countries. Public debt is more than 90% of GDP. An ageing population and rising social expenditures are mid- to long-term challenges to public finances.

Ben Foster given chance to shine for Manchester United and England
The 38-year-old Dutch international will miss the first two months of the campaign after undergoing surgery on his left hand. He broke his finger saving a penalty from the Croatian Daniel Pranjic during Sir Alex Ferguson's side's 7-6 defeat on penalties to Bayern Munich in the Audi Cup last week. Foster is likely to be given the chance to deputise for the vastly experienced former Juventus and Ajax player, ahead of Tomasz Kuszczcak, after Ferguson greeted his decision to sign a new, long-term contract at the start of the summer by admitting he sees him as Van der Sar's long-term 'successor'. Both goalkeepers are likely to play a part in tonight's friendly against Valencia but Ferguson is believed to be ready to give Foster a run in the side, starting with the Community Shield against Chelsea at Wembley on Sunday, to prove his ability to replace Van der Sar when the Dutchman finally retires. Foster has been widely tipped not just as Old Trafford's first-choice in waiting but as the natural heir to David James for Fabio Capello's England. Rob Green, the West Ham goalkeeper, stood in for the Portsmouth player for June's two World Cup qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Andorra, but Capello is believed to regard his goalkeeping options as limited ahead of the tournament in South Africa next year. James is now 39 and, while he is likely to travel to the World Cup, cannot be regarded as a long-term option. Doubts linger over Green's command of his box, while Paul Robinson, despite his return earlier in the summer to Capello's squad and the new lease of life granted him by a move to Blackburn last season, has failed to convince the Italian he should be given his place back. Capello is unconvinced by the merits of the likes of Scott Carson, of West Bromwich Albion, and Joe Hart, now on loan at Birmingham, although he has invited Joe Lewis, the Peterborough and England U21 goalkeeper, to train with the senior squad on several occasions. The Italian's stated policy of only wishing to select those playing regularly for their clubs has thus far counted against Foster, an eternal understudy at Old Trafford since returning from a loan spell at Watford and recovering from a succession of serious injuries. The former Stoke goalkeeper, now 26, can no longer be considered a young hopeful and knows he must start to play every week if he is to be included in Capello's 23-man squad

The MILF Diet: Let the Power of Whole Foods Transform Your Body, Mind, and Spirit . . . Deliciously! is a book written by Jessica Porter. She also wrote The Hip Chick's Guide to Macrobiotics and works as a chef and cooking instructor. This book is available in both paperback and Kindle formats. Yes, when you think "MILF", this is exactly what she means. This book is designed to as a source for people who are looking to learn more about a whole foods diet, and how to get healthy and lose weight with one.
List of Ingredients
Not applicable.
Product Features
The MILF Diet is a whole foods, plant based diet. It gets its name from the fact that Jessica believes a true MILF "confident, sexy, and radiates natural femininity." She says it's actually very simple, because the saying "you are what you eat" is true. She says that even though the idea of eliminating refined sugars, meat and dairy from your diet seems a bit scary, it's actually easier than you might think. To back up her claim, she supplies a variety of recipes such as: Oven- Roasted Root Vegetables with Garlic, Cumin, and Herbs; Edamame Dip; Lemony Quinoa Salad; and Poached Pears with Raspberry Sauce to keep you feeling satisfied, without feeling deprived. She says the diet is delicious and easy to follow, all while helping you lose weight.
- The MILF Diet is a healthy approach to weight loss.
- This book comes from an expert in the field.
- The MILF Diet is targeted primarily at women.
- Whole food diets are typically more expensive to follow.
- Some people are offended by the underlying slang meaning of the term "MILF."
- There is no mention of exercise within this book.
- There is no meal plan, just recipes.
- Some customers believe this is the Macrobiotic Diet repackaged into a different cover, with slightly different recipes. Those who've done the Macrobiotic Diet say it is not as easy as the author makes it out to be.
The MILF Diet actually provides a solid approach to weight loss. While it is not a traditional diet and exercise plan geared at weight loss, if you can get past the title and its connotation, you can enjoy delicious, healthy food. However, if you really want to lose weight, you'll have to find an exercise plan that works for you and your current physical state. If you really want to lose weight, you may want to consider combining your new healthy diet and exercise plan with a clinically proven safe and effective fat burner and/or appetite suppressant. The right supplement can help you lose more weight than just diet and exercise alone.

Rome is the capital of the central region of Italy known as Latium or Lazio, and its cuisine epitomizes the culinary traditions indigenous to the area. Signature ingredients include young meat (e.g., spring lamb and veal), artichokes, and pecorino Romano cheese, and cured pork jowl is used to flavor many pasta sauces. Dessert isn't usually worth the calories, with the notable exception of gelato, which is at its best and worst in the Eternal City.
Start the day off with a visit to the vibrant Antico Forno di Campo de'Fiori, with its stalls of Roman artichokes, Catalan chicory, olives and spices, and exotic produce. Volpetti in nearby Testaccio, is the best gourmet grocery in the city; I recommend stocking up on the pecorino Romano cheese, extra virgin olive oil, and cicerchia (an ancient legume that tastes like a cross between lentils and chickpeas and is difficult to find outside the region). San Crispino, just steps from the Trevi fountain, scoops up the best gelato in Rome. Artificial flavoring is forbidden at this gelateria, which explains the absence of ice-cream cones. Only natural ingredients like honey and seasonal fruit (e.g., pears and grapefruit in the winter, figs and persimmons in the fall, berries in the spring, and peaches and melons in the summer) are used.
Checchino, run by the Mariani family for the past hundred years, is the greatest of the traditional Roman restaurants. Regional classics like tonnarelli (squared-off spaghetti) topped with oxtail sauce, gricia (cured jowl, pecorino), or amatriciana are at their very best here. The wine list includes older vintages of Italian classics. Look to La Pergola, the rooftop restaurant of the Cavaliere Hilton, for the most elegant cooking—and view—in Rome. Chef Heinz Beck, who is German by birth but has lived and cooked in Italy for most of his professional life, already has two Michelin stars under his chef's toque and is well on his way to garnering his third. Antonello Colonna's eponymous restaurant in Labico, just outside Rome, plates up the region's lusty, traditional flavors in new and exciting combinations. The wine list offers many unknown regional gems.
Oenophiles can become members of the International Academy of Wine for a nominal fee. This private club, situated next to the Spanish Steps, offers serious wine-tastings and guided tours of regional vineyards. Visitors to Rome may also be interested in the special dinners, tastings, and cooking courses offered at Citta' del Gusto, which serves as the headquarters for the expanding Gambero Rosso guidebook empire. The complex includes a theater, cooking school, restaurant, TV studio, and shop selling Gambero Rosso publications.

National online news aggregators have created business models for mass audiences and advertising they hope will make them profitable. They aggregate blogs and some reporting of their own with links to and summaries of news reported by other media, along with plentiful photographs and videos. The small staff at Newser, for example, rewrites stories taken from news media Web sites. The Drudge Report's Matt Drudge, who has been at it much longer, simply links to other sites' content, along with bits of occasionally reliable media and political gossip. Founders Ariana Huffington of HuffingtonPost and Tina Brown of The Daily Beast, who are media celebrities themselves, have attracted numerous freelance contributors and volunteer bloggers, including big-name writers, to supplement their relatively small writing and editing staffs. HuffingtonPost on the left and Drudge on the right also display clear ideological leanings in their selection of stories, links and blogs.
Newspapers complain that some aggregators violate copyrights by using their work without payment or a share of the aggregators' advertising revenue, although the aggregators also link to the original stories on the papers' Web sites. At issue, besides the trade between paying the papers on the one hand and driving some readers to their sites on the other, is the current state of copyright law, which has not kept up with issues raised by digital publication. It has not been decided, for example, how much of a story can be republished, or in what form, before the prevailing principle of "fair use" is violated.
In a departure from other for-profit aggregators, HuffingtonPost has joined with the American News Project, a nonprofit print and video investigative reporting entity, to invest in a HuffingtonPost Investigative Fund, a legally separate nonprofit based in Washington with about a dozen investigative journalists and initial funding of $1.75 million, including $500,000 from HuffingtonPost. The fund's editor, former Washington Post investigative editor Larry Roberts, said it will provide reporting on national subjects for use by HuffingtonPost and other news media, much the way that ProPublica does. He said that he has a commitment from Huffington that the project would be editorially independent and nonpartisan.
We are not recommending a government bailout of newspapers, nor any of the various direct subsidies that governments give newspapers in many European countries.
The fast-growing number of digital startups, ambitious blogs, experiments in pro-am journalism, and other hybrid news organizations are not replacing newspapers or broadcast news. But they increasingly depend on each other—the old media for news and investigative reporting they can no longer do themselves and the newcomers for the larger audiences they can reach through newspapers, radio, and television—and for the authority that these legacy media outlets still convey. The many new sources of news reporting have become, in the span of a relatively few years, significant factors in the reconstruction of American journalism.
How are colleges and universities contributing to independent news reporting?
A number of universities are publishing the reporting of their student journalists on the states, cities, and neighborhoods where the schools are located. The students work in journalism classes and news services under the supervision of professional journalists now on their faculties. The students' reporting appears on local news Web sites operated by the universities and in other local news media, some of which pay for the reporting to supplement their own. In southern Florida, for example, The Miami Herald, The Palm Beach Post, and Sun Sentinel have agreed to use reporting from journalism students at Florida International University.
The University of Missouri is unique in having run its own local daily newspaper, the Columbia Missourian, since 1908, when its journalism school opened. This valuable journalism laboratory has professional editors and a reporting staff of journalism students. Other universities, meanwhile, publish local news Web sites. In New York, Columbia's journalism school operates several sites with reporting by its students in city neighborhoods, and investigative reporting by students in the school's Stabile Center for Investigative Journalism has appeared in several major news outlets.

Bigger piece of pie on the backs of taxpayers
The Kansas Bankers Association is trying to pressure the Kansas Legislature to gamble with an existing, proven and fair mortgage service fee that meets the needs of Kansas counties.
Potentially at stake is a $47 million price tag that would be absorbed by every property owner across the state.
The plan would transfer mortgage filing service fees away from liable filers and onto property owners at-large in the form of a subsidized property tax.

The Kansas Bankers Association is trying to pressure the Kansas Legislature to gamble with an existing, proven and fair mortgage service fee that meets the needs of Kansas counties.
Potentially at stake is a $47 million price tag that would be absorbed by every property owner across the state.
The plan would transfer mortgage filing service fees away from liable filers and onto property owners at-large in the form of a subsidized property tax.
If approved, counties will have little choice but to adopt and implement the same funding mechanism that supports the operation of county government and its services.
If the current service fee were eliminated, all 105 Kansas counties would be compelled to increase their mill levies to make up for the substantial loss. Currently, the fee is equal to about 1 property tax mill's worth of revenue, or 0.26 percent of the principle borrowed for real estate.
It is not going to sit well when all property owners regardless of their own economic situation will be mandated to subsidize their neighbor's mortgage service filing fees. It is really a question of fair treatment and accountability.
Basically, under the new proposal, anyone that takes out a mortgage or refinances their property will now be passing the fee onto everyone else.
Currently, the mortgage registration service fee is a one-time payment to the county, whereas a mill levy tax remains in place as long as the county desires to keep it in place. The mill levy increase could remain in place for many years and eventually end up costing the mortgage filer more money than had they just paid their one-time fee to initially file.
Changing the existing system could have further unintended consequences during an unpredictable economy.
Under a mill levy taxing method, collections are not based on filed mortgages, but on "anticipation of county need requirements," which may never correspond to actual mortgage filings. The potential of a "hidden" property tax increase could be immediately buried in the mill levy even if unintended.
The current service filing fee method corresponds precisely to the mortgage transactions generated. (The more mortgages filed equals the more revenue collected.) There is never an over-taxation or under-collection.
Proponents of the elimination of the mortgage registration fee contend the current system is an obstacle in border counties, because the purchaser of residential or commercial real estate in another state doesn't face the mortgage registration cost imposed on the Kansas buyer.
Kansas does not stand alone with the current equitable service fee collection method.
The KBA also takes issue with the Farm Credit banks whose customers receive a waiver from the mortgage registration fee. In spite of their contention, the Kansas Legislature cannot change federally granted exemptions benefiting Farm Credit banking customers.
As an agricultural state, the Farm Credit mortgage fee waivers were put into place to assist Kansas farmers who refinance as a regular facet of operating and maintaining their farm and equipment. Waivers were not intended for large-scale mortgage financing or refinancing of urban residences.
Mortgage registration service filing fees are not paid by either the realtors or non-farm credit banks. The fees are currently paid by the filers of the mortgage transaction (their customers).
Increased mill levies are not the only concern posed by eliminating the mortgage registration fee. Many communities that intend to preserve notably historic properties will be in jeopardy of losing preservation funding through the Heritage Trust Fund if the new plan is activated.
While counties keep most of the revenue generated from the mortgage registration fee, 0.01 percent collected by statute goes directly into the state's Heritage Trust Fund. In 2011, this collection amounted to approximately $1.4 million, and, in 2012, yielded $1.8 million.
Losing the Heritage fee would be devastating to historical preservation in Kansas communities. The Kansas State Historical Society utilizes this allocation to endow grants for preservation of historical buildings.
Bill Meek, Topeka, is chairman of the Kansas Register of Deeds Association Legislative Committee.

NFL Europe: Ex-PSU, Central Catholic star leads Hamburg's defense into World Bowl
NFL Europe: Ex-PSU, Central Catholic star leads Hamburg's defense into World Bowl Saturday, June 23, 2007 By Michael Preston, Special to the Post-Gazette FRANKFURT, Germany -- Western Pennsylvania's football mentality might have an influence on the outcome of World Bowl XV when the Hamburg Sea Devils take on the Frankfurt Galaxy today. Justin Kurpeikis, a former Central Catholic High School All-American and Penn State All-Big Ten selection, will start at defensive end for the Sea Devils. He takes an attitude into the NFL Europa championship game that he feels is unique to players from his home state. "Coming from Western Pa., there is always more expected out of you and you have to be tough and willing to go the extra mile when other people won't," he explained. "You take that attitude into college and then into the pro level. "I think that it starts with Pennsylvania as a whole. To me, there is a certain way football is looked at. My high school was a special place, and I have a certain type of football that I have to play and uphold." Those standards have paid dividends. Kurpeikis was named to the All-NFL Europa League team this week. He tied for the team lead with five sacks to go with 31 tackles, four passes defended and two forced fumbles. He has played in 14 NFL games, including three with the Steelers as a rookie, but headed overseas to improve his overall technique and gain experience. "I'm not a person that worries too much about personal goals," Kurpeikis said. "My goal coming over here was to have a passion about playing football. I love to play football and knew that I would get as much as I could handle over here and would play hard on every snap. After that, I wanted to win a championship, and we have that chance now." But there is a future to consider. Being a free agent, Kurpeikis is certain his performance across the Atlantic will catch the eyes of coaches and scouts back home. "I've done everything that I can and I don't worry about things that are out of my control," he said. "My agent will deal with any offers, and I still believe that if you take care of what you have control over, those other things will take care of themselves. There will be somebody who has a place for me. "In college, I played defensive end in a 4-3 system. But, in the pros, I have played outside linebacker in a 3-4 system. There are not a lot of teams that run that, and I played on three of them. So, basically I wanted to show NFL teams that I could still play at defensive end in the 4-3 formation." When the Sea Devils take on the hometown Galaxy in front of an anticipated 50,000 sellout crowd at Frankfurt's Commerzbank Arena, Kurpeikis will have to help contain the league's top-ranked offense. Galaxy quarterback J.T. O'Sullivan was named co-offensive MVP . He had a 104.8 passer rating. "The way their offense is, they are going to make plays," Kurpeikis said. "What we have to do is stay disciplined and not press too hard to stop them. We need to wait for them to come to us. It will be a challenge, but we go in there with confidence having already beaten them once this season." Kurpeikis is eager to return to Pennsylvania and resume a more familiar lifestyle once his European adventure ends tonight. "It has been great and the city of Hamburg was awesome, but, to be completely honest, I miss my wife, my family, my dogs and my house," he admitted. "I'm looking forward to getting home to State College."

Re: NFL Europe: Ex-PSU, Central Catholic star leads Hamburg's defense into World Bowl
its been a good game with plenty of offense. im pulling for underdog hamburg but their kicker has missed an extra point and a chip shot fg. not good and it will probably cost them in the end.
the capacity crowd of 50,000+ is loud and rowdy. despite this there still might be discussions of folding the league after this week. that would be a shame.

.:Hope Makes Me Stay:.Such a fragile, feathered soulThat trembles with a touch.And yet, though worn, has weathered all;Has faced and endured much.What keeps the soul so tethered now?It has not blown awayDespite its tattered, feathered bow.'Tis hope that makes it stay.August 26, 2010
Ribbon SyncopationIt started with a whisper that echoed through my ears. My fingers began to twitch and burn, coursing through every pulse and vein. That sweet tune began to flow, filling every void and hole, and my feet began to gravitate closer to yours.Every sympathetic beat pounds into my head, moving me into a dance parallel to yours. My lungs stop breathing, and for a moment my world starts ending. And then you take the lead.A superhero of sorts: taking a ribbon for a cape and flying on waves of radiation. You lead my pirouette, pointing sore bones through days and nights. It starts slowly, taking over time. Every tear wiped into a sea of mixed emotions, of memorials and joys and celebrations.A light you set takes over, convulsing with every move you make. The fight we've watched you wage is a dance you lead, a dance you've been forced to choreograph.The words singing out of your mouth enrapture and consume
