Armstrong schools road work expected to exceed original budget estimate
Upgrades to the only access road into the Armstrong Junior-Senior High School being built in Manor are projected to cost $175,000 more than expected.
The project to widen Buffington Drive and add turning lanes onto Route 422 will be taking the costly hit because of difficulties working in the area's steep terrain, said project manager Brian Hayes, an architect from L.R. Kimball Architects and Engineering in Ebensburg.
"We need to make Buffington much wider, and the only way to do that is to cut into the hillside," Hayes said.
Buffington Drive needs to be widened at least 500 feet from Route 422 in the Armstrong School District project. The estimated cost of the project — before the unexpected increases — was $700,000.
The school board has a $1.5 million contingency fund set up to cover the increased cost of the project, Hayes said.
Work on the project is expected to start in June. The school is scheduled to open next year.

BBC School Report
The Olympic Torch Comes to Morley
On June 25
, the Olympic torch is paying a visit to many places including our home town of Morley, as well as other towns in the Leeds area such as: Hunslet, Beeston, Batley, Dewsbury and many more. These locations and others will be blessed with a visit from the icon of British spirit. As you can imagine many of the students at The Morley Academy are ecstatic that the Olympic torch carrying the Olympic spirit is coming to Morley. This is an honour and a once in a lifetime opportunity for most of our students to get as close as possible to the Olympic torch.
Who do we want to carry the Olympic torch?
There are many people who dream of carrying the Olympic torch but the majority of these people might not get the opportunity. But now the Olympic torch is coming to town and you can be in reaching distance of the symbol of Olympic spirit, if not you will hopefully be carrying it. Could you imagine holding the Olympic torch in your hand? Running past the screaming fans. Been on live television in front of millions, because some lucky person from Yorkshire will be carrying the torch. We asked teachers and students how they would feel carrying the Olympic torch. Many said they would be honoured and excited an unusual answer was they would feel nervous. We also asked who they would nominate to carry the Olympic torch a huge majority said celebrities. Some examples are Ray Harryhauser nominated by the author of the book Wereworld, Curtis Jobling. Another example of a nominated celebrity is Morrissey nominated by a teacher.
The Events
There are 38 Olympic events and all of them are unique in their own way. Previously, we asked students what their favourite Olympic event was. The students all had different opinions about the Olympic events, but all these have something in common, they all play a role on bringing the countries together. The most popular event is table tennis out of the people we asked which includes students and teachers. This is mainly because it is easy to play and more entertaining. The events are important as without them there are no Olympics.
In conclusion, the Olympic torch is passing through towns across Leeds and the Olympics is being held in the capital of England, London. The students of the Morley Academy are really looking forward to the Olympics. We hope you are as excited as we are!

Options Options and More Options
Many students across the country are now making life-changing decisions that may affect the career path they take in life – aged only 12 or 13. Is this the way of the future, or is it just a phase that will pass as soon as it came along?
We wondered what had made our principal and associate principal make the decision to move
decisions a year forward: 'It gives the students an extra year working on their GCSE subjects, therefore they can reach their maximum potential,' was our associate principal's response. In reply to our second question – 'do you think this was an effective decision?' – she said 'it has been effective in most subjects, but some have decided that they still want the first real GCSE in year 10'.
Furthermore, we asked some year 9 students if they found it easier choosing their options a year early. Lots replied with the same answer; that they did, because they already had an idea of what they wanted to do in the future, and didn't want to spend any more time doing subjects that wouldn't help them.
A group of year 8 students were also asked the question – 'would they have preferred an extra year to decide?' Most informed us that they would, because they were a bit young.
Although The Morley Academy has started their GCSE subjects a year earlier, not every school has. A teacher from a school we cannot name said that they didn't want the students choosing the options in year 8, because they didn't have many lessons in year 7 in certain subjects. For example, the students only have 1 hour of MFL (modern foreign languages) a week in year 7, which is not enough to make an informed decision about choosing that subject.
This has only been going on a year now; the second group of year 8s are choosing their options. However, we think that this new idea will be successful, and think that many more schools will take it on.
Reported by Rosie, Abigail and Co
A new way forward?
I'm sure that individuals like yourselves are aware of a very controversial issue that takes place beyond the boundaries of the shop shelves and advertisements.
According to a recent study, around 15,000 animals are brought in from abroad to the UK every year for testing new medicines.
However, is all of this about to change for the better?
Animal right activists are now on a mission, to stop airlines and ferries transporting animals into the country if they are going to be used for animal testing. If travel companies do not comply, activists threaten to protest.
Some believe that there will be a new way out, instead of hurting animals for the benefit of our looks. A student here suggested they should test only on human tissue culture. We are hoping this happens sooner rather than later.
We asked several people whether they feel animal testing is morally right; if they think that the animal testing laws are acceptable; and if they themselves used products tested on animals.
The majority of the answers we got said 'animal testing isn't right, it is cruel, however a necessary evil'.
In addition to this, the hair and beauty department here at T.M.A stated that they use dermalogica – a product that uses all natural ingredients and doesn't test on animals. The department feel that animal testing laws should be stricter, as do many of the students.

Literacy Rates are Decreasing?
Sir Michael Wilshaw, Ofsted Chief Inspector, yesterday reported on BBC Newsnight that literacy progress in England is grinding to a halt. He was quoted as saying that 'Other nations have much better standards' and 'We have dropped from 7
to 23
in the literacy league table of the UN'. He went on to say that a lot of children are leaving primary school without the expected literacy levels. As keen English students, we find this particular statistic appalling – we also believe that this may be stereotyping, as there are also many bright students which do gain the expected rates and make expected levels of progress. However, we strongly believe that this is a subject which needs addressing – we fear that it may be difficult in the future to gain a career without the necessary English qualifications.
So what can teachers do to improve their standard of teaching? Well, Sir Wilshaw believes that new literacy teachers should be given education themselves to help them optimise their teaching skills.
Despite Sir Wilshaw's opinions, as an academy, we feel priviledged to have access to skillful teachers and useful resources, which result in inspirational literacy rates. We feel the only way we could possibly improve literacy rates on a whole would be to make students read for leisure, to improve reading skills.
We spoke to The Morley Academy's Literacy Co-ordinator who gave us an in depth analysis of our literacy achievements. Please see the video interview below.

YIELD: Serves 6
For Sauce:
Puree 2 mangoes and 2 tablespoons honey in processor. Cover and refrigerate until well chilled, about 1 hour. Add mango nectar as needed to thin to sauce consistency. (Sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
For Mousse:
Place 1 tablespoon water in 1/4-cup measuring cup. Sprinkle gelatin over. Let soften 10 minutes. Whisk honey and yolks in small metal bowl. Set bowl over large saucepan halfway filled with boiling water. Cook until mixture registers 160°F. on candy thermometer, whisking constantly, about 3 minutes. Remove bowl from over water. Add gelatin mixture and whisk until honey mixture is cool.
Beat whipping cream and crème fraîche in large bowl to medium-stiff peaks. Add honey mixture and fold together gently. Cover and refrigerate mousse until set, at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours.
For Pastries:
Preheat oven to 375°F. Combine sugar and ground all-spice in small bowl. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar mixture over 1 puff pastry sheet. Roll out on lightly floured surface to 13x12-inch rectangle. Trim to 10-inch square. Cut puff pastry sheet into quarters, forming four 5-inch squares. Fold 1 dough square diagonally in half to form triangle. Starting at folded side, cut 1/2-inch border strip on both unfolded sides of triangle, leaving 1/2 inch of dough uncut at triangle point so that strips remain attached. Unfold triangle. Brush 1/2-inch-wide border strips with water. Lift up both loose corner tips, slip one under the other and place border strips atop edges of base, gently pulling to match corners on base. Press border onto base to adhere. Sprinkle more sugar mixture over border. Transfer pastry to cookie sheet. Pierce center all over with fork. Repeat with remaining pastry squares and pastry sheet and sugar mixture. Bake pastries until golden brown, piercing centers with knife if puffy, about 20 minutes. Transfer pastries to rack and cool completely. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Store in air-tight container at room temperature.)
Spoon sauce onto plates. Spoon honey mousse into pastry baskets and arrange atop sauce. Top mousse with slices of pineapple, mango and kiwi fruit. Garnish each dessert with fresh mint leaves and serve.

'Duke Begins' Developer Outed in DNF Docs
The mysterious "well-known videogame developer" behind new Duke Nukem series entry "Duke Begins" is Gearbox Software (Brothers in Arms, Aliens: Colonial Marines, Borderlands), Take-Two has revealed in court filings uncovered by Shacknews.
On the left, Duke Nukem Forever. On the right, the latest court documents.
Gearbox was named within Take-Two's answer to a counterclaim filed by series creator 3D Realms/Apogee Software Ltd. The increasingly complicated lawsuit sees publisher Take-Two going after 3D Realms for the incomplete state of the long-in-development shooter Duke Nukem Forever, with 3D Realms labeling the lawsuit as a "bully tactic."
Duke Begins emerged from a 2007 Agreement between 3D Realms and Take-Two, with development taking place at an external third party studio now known to be Gearbox. As part of the deal, 3D Realms received a $2.5 million advance to help fund DNF.
While Take-Two admits that the development of Duke Begins "has for the time being been halted," the company denies that the game has been cancelled, and argues that 3D Realms did not need to be consulted regarding this change to the schedule:
Under the 2007 Agreement, any modification to the development schedule for the Duke Begins game, following Final Concept Approval (as defined in the 2007 Agreement), is permitted without Apogee's consent provided that both 2K Games and Gearbox (as defined in the 2007 Agreement) consent to the change.
Take-Two also disputed 3D Realms' claim that Duke Begins was originally due by mid-2010, and further denied that its halted development "has materially harmed Apogee and/or will necessarily delay the commercial release of the Duke Begins game."
In its counterclaim, 3D Realms said that a later release of Duke Begins would "delay any royalty payments...from sales of the Duke Begins game and prevent Apogee from being able to repay the [$2.5 million] advance when it becomes due in 2012."
As for the ongoing soap opera regarding Duke Nukem Forever and the funding issues that led to 3D Realms laying off most of its staff, Take-Two denies knowing in advance that terminating the funding negotiations between the two would lead to layoffs, though 3D Realms asserts Take-Two was "fully aware" of this "weeks before."
And though 3D Realms claims it continues to work on "the development of" Duke Nukem Forever and has no contractual deadline by which it must deliver the game, Take-Two writes that the "law implies a reasonable deadline for the completion of contractual performance where no deadline is explicitly set forth in the contract."

Jeff Ross
Jeff Ross is an actor, writer, director, producer and comedian originally from Newark, New Jersey. He is the creator and star of "The Burn With Jeff Ross" on Comedy Central as well as a producer and star of that network's wildly popular celebrity roast franchise. He also debuted his new comedy special on Comedy Central entitled "Jeff Ross Roasts America: which takes Jeff across the United States and into Canada speed roasting the people, places and things that make this country so unique. Recent writing credits include the screenplay "The Comedian" (co-written with Art Linson) and the book, "I Only Roast The Ones I Love" published by Simon & Schuster. Jeff also tours the world performing live as "The Roastmaster General".
Myq Kaplan
Myq Kaplan is a comedian named Myq Kaplan (pronounced "Mike Kaplan" when done correctly or however you like, he's not picky). The Comedians magazine calls him "a comedy machine, in the best possible way. The way that some machines vend soda or prevent other machines from killing future revolutionaries – that's how Myq Kaplan does comedy: relentlessly, methodically, unblinkingly." Myq just made his debut on "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien," and his half-hour "Comedy Central Presents" special will appear in 2010 (a year for which Punchline Magazine says to watch out for Myq). He has also appeared on Comedy Central's "Live at Gotham," at the New Faces show of the 2009 Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal, was voted 2008's Best Local Comedian in the Boston Phoenix, and won the 2009 NY's Funniest Standup Competition. A Jewy-ish vegan atheist who spells the name "Mike" weird, Myq enjoys words, social justice, Netflix, and comic books. Also non-comic books, ping-pong, and being great with women. And grammar and run-on sentence fragments. And of course, being hilarious to his demographic, which is anyone who might know the word "demographic."
Owen Smith
Andrew Schulz
Native New Yorker Andrew Schulz likes laughs. Real, hard laughs. And this fall, the comedian – known for his hilariously edgy, street-smart, and unapologetic comedy – will deliver his due. Handpicked by MTV as their new tastemaker, Schulz will take over the small screen with five new shows for their network. He'll be on the road for his accompanying stand-up tour. And as "one of the top five up-and-coming artists on Twitter", there will be more than a few ways to get your fix. The first of the five shows for MTV and MTV2 is "The Hook Up," which will premiere on October 14. An updated take on "The Dating Game," Schulz hosts the show, guiding contestants through the confusing social media landscape that is the current dating scene. Next up, later this fall the show "Guy Court" will premiere,which he and his colleagues from the hit show "Guy Code" will prosecute (or defend) a guy by the official Laws of Manhood. Schulz will continue to write and appear on the 4th season of the record-breaking MTV2 series "Guy Code" as well as the second season of "Girl Code". "Jobs that Don't Suck" is the fifth MTV installment for Schulz. Premiering in March 2014, The series is almost the antitheses of Mike Rowe's "Dirty Jobs". Jobs That Don't Suck focuses on people who have found their dream jobs. Schulz will interview and participate in such jobs that don't suck as the "professional pick up artist", "snake-milker", "super car test driver", "airplane re-possessor", and more. In 2012, Schulz hosted the acclaimed European Movie Awards for MTV and has made appearances on MTV2's "Hip Hop Squares", MTV's "Epic Fail," MTV2′s "Wild N' Out," and the weekly webseries "Whats Good." His credits also include: VH1′s "Big Morning Buzz", MTV2′s "The Week In Jams" and "Charlamagne and Friends". As an actor, Schulz recently filmed the FX pilot, BRONX WARRANTS, and the indie film, VICTOR, opposite Jeremy Sisto and Tony Hale. With his unique brand of humor, Schulz has established himself as a fixture in the New York comedy circuit. He regularly performs at The Comedy Cellar, Stand Up NY, The Comic Strip Live, Eastville Comedy Club, and Caroline's on Broadway.
Hugh Moore
Hugh Moore's comedy journey began on the streets of NY where he was raised by his parents, a poor farrier and coppersmith team collectively known as the metallics.
While performing on the NY comedy scene Moore, affectionately known as "Catwoman" was an immediate stand out. His low key, deadpan, yet regal demeanor enabled him to perform regularly at the premiere comedy club The Comic Strip. Moore honed his skills at the club nightly and he wrote daily.
Working for Vibe led to him wearing normal clothing and writing on other shows such as MTV's The Lyricist Lounge Show, Fox's The Best Damn Sports Show Period and head writer on MTV's Nick Cannon Presents: Wildnout. The show that entered MooreÂ's name into the history books for being the lowest paid head writer in the history of television. Moore continues to perform standup all over the country.
His goals are to win an Emmy award and kick Tito Santana in the head.

Rob O'Reilly
With appearances on Comedy Central's Live at Gotham, NBC's America's Got Talent and on the Tonight Show as Jay Leno's correspondent, Rob O'Reilly is quickly gaining a reputation as an up-and-coming comedian to watch in New York City. It all began in Cleveland, Ohio, where Rob made his stand-up debut at a high school talent show and later won the city's largest comedy competition. While attending Boston University on an academic scholarship, he became a finalist in the 2005 Boston Comedy Festival and retired any notions of a "normal career." With his youthful point-of-view making him a favorite at three NACA conferences, Rob now headlines colleges across the country. Residing in New York, he also enjoys playing in a comedian basketball league and performing sketch comedy with his group The Straightmen.

Bailey made a rehab start Tuesday for Triple-A Louisville, in which he allowed five runs in 4 1/3 innings. After trying to throw again on flat ground over the next day or so, Bailey said he felt soreness in new places in his shoulder.
It was a little bit alarming for me, Bailey said Friday.
Bailey does not want to shut it down, Lessard said, but that is how the Reds are going.
Its tough for him to swallow, because he wants to go out and pitch, Lessard said. He also realizes that hes not that strong yet.
Sam LeCure will continue to fill Baileys spot in the rotation.

Hailey and Alaia Baldwin Join Their Father Stephen Baldwin the Faces of So Lucky To B Me
The So Lucky To B Me line of women's casual wear has two new celebrity fans: Hailey and Alaia Baldwin, the beautiful daughters of actor, director, producer and author Stephen Baldwin.
The Baldwin family has joined forces with So Lucky To B Me to raise awareness for breast cancer research and support for the Carol M. Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Fund (CMBBCRF), founded by Stephen's mother, which supports new and established researchers investigating the causes, prevention, and treatment of breast cancer. A portion of all proceeds from sales of the casual wear purchased through SoLuckyToBMe.com will be donated to the Fund.
Hailey says that the empowering messages behind the So Lucky To B Me line are a great match for her grandmother's charity: "What this company stands for is really great, and the shirts are an awesome representation of the love that comes from the heart of the Fund," she says.
Alaia agrees with her sister, and says that CMBBCRF and So Lucky To B Me represent the power and passion of women committed to making a difference: "The women who are working hard behind the scenes of So Lucky To B Me and behind CMBBCRF are the greatest examples of strong women. They can all relate to those who are going through the hardest of times. Andie Graff's desire to support my grandmother's organization is truly a blessing."
Andie Graff, founder and designer behind So Lucky To B Me, says the inspirational messages she includes on each piece mirror the mission of the Fund: "I created the line to share messages of empowerment to help build women's self-esteem and encourage them to believe that they are more than enough, simply by being themselves," Graff says. "I am thrilled to partner with an organization that is also working so tirelessly on behalf of women."

10 game cap on fights in OHL

The 10-fight rule is not targeted at the fights that you mention. An example of a rule that would do so, would make it illegal for 16 and 17 year old players to fight at all. The 10-fight maximum is aimed at advancing toward taking fighting out of the league altogether... Aside from the potential harm it may cause (although not excluding it) I strongly oppose the rule on principle alone.
Regardless, I don't see what you're talking about as an epidemic, I don't think it's exclusively bad, and NO - I don't have a particular bloodlust when it comes to children (if that's what's being implied).
I don't think they will ever take fighting out of the game. And a ten fight max pretty much just affects your goons.
Many young players nowadays are going the college route. I think the OHL realizes that some of them are not going to the OHL because of the fighting. I think this is the OHL's way of showing parents that they care about safety and that they are being proactive.

Americans named Billy Graham the number four "Most Admired Man" in world of 2014 according to U.S. polling agency Gallup. The polling results mark the 58th time that the 96-year-old televangelist has made the top 10 list.
The pollster's telephone survey results from 805 U.S. adults ages 18 and older placed Graham, referred to as "America's pastor," in the top 10 list of most admired men in the world for 2014.
Two percent of poll participants named him as their first or second choice when asked "What man that you have heard or read about, living today in any part of the world do you admire most." more >>
The grandson of the Rev. Billy Graham commented Tuesday that he believes Evangelicals' involvement in the conservative political movement "has done more damage to the brand of Christianity than just about anything else."
Tullian Tchividjian, senior pastor at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, explained to co-hosts of the MSNBC program "Morning Joe" that American evangelicalism has been harmed by its association with conservative politics.
"Over the course of the last 20 or 30 years, evangelicalism, specifically their association with the religious right and conservative politics, has done more damage to the brand of Christianity than just about anything else," Tchividjian asserted. more >>
Billy Graham is still focused on spreading the good news found in the Bible, says his daughter Anne Graham Lotz. "He is 96, he has not yet lost his focus on the gospel, reaching people for Christ," she described in a recent interview.
Reflecting on his ministry as a world famous evangelist and pastor to presidents, Lotz said there were many temptations that could have diverted Graham's attention from his ministry. Instead, he remained faithful to his Bible calling.
The secret to Graham's continued focus, Lotz explained, is his humility. more >>
The Rev. Franklin Graham says Christians should never deny Jesus Christ in order to spare their lives from slaughter by terrorists, such as ISIS, and further asserts that doing so would be a betrayal against martyrs who stood strong for their faith, despite persecution.
"Christians have been martyred going all the way back to the Romans when they fed them to the lions. We would be betraying every person who stood for their faith, who stood for Jesus Christ, if we turn our back on Jesus Christ. … I think we take a stand for our faith," Graham said on Fox News' "The Kelly File" when host Megyn Kelly asked if Christians should lie in order to save their lives when confronted with death at the hands of Islamic terrorists.
Noting that Christians who live in countries where they're the religious minority are the most persecuted people in the world, Kelly commented on a story about four Iraqi Christian children who were beheaded by ISIS militants after they refused to convert to Islam, a story reported by The Christian Post earlier this month. more >>
The Rev. Franklin Graham, president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritans Purse, says the government's attacks against Christianity and bans on traditional Christmas themes while society glorifies sin is "like little children shaking their fist at Almighty God."
"What's happening is we're glorifying sin, we're lifting up sin. And it's like little children shaking their fist at Almighty God," Graham told Fox News host Megyn Kelly during a Wednesday segment of "The Kelly File."
Speaking about atheists and secularists' actions to ban celebrations of Christmas in schools and government buildings, Kelly commented on American Atheists' "skip church" billboard ad campaign, which The Christian Post has reported on. She also cited the city of Pittsburg's previous plan to rename the Christmas holidays "sparkle days" and the ban on poinsettias at a Minnesota court house, among others. more >>
Billy Graham is not dead.
After word spread on social media proclaiming the death of the celebrated evangelical Christian icon this week, the 96-year-old's representatives at the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association categorically denied those claims as false on Friday.
"He is still very much alive," a representative from the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, who asked to remain unidentified, told The Christian Post. more >>

These are general guidelines. Your nurse will teach you how to take care of your catheter. Be sure to follow the specific instructions he or she gives you. Call your doctor if you have questions or concerns.
To keep your catheter working right, you will need to flush it with a
heparin solution. A heparin solution is a liquid that keeps blood from clotting
in your catheter and blocking it.
Your doctor will give you a prescription for heparin and
the supplies that you will need. Many cancer treatment centers send supply kits
home to help patients care for their catheters.
You will need to flush your catheter every day and after each use.

YIELD: Makes 6 servings
For salsa:
Mix all ingredients in medium bowl. Season to taste with salt. Cover and chill. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Keep chilled.
For seafood:
Whisk first 5 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in 1/3 cup olive oil. Season marinade to taste with salt and pepper.
Place shrimp in large resealable plastic bag. Place scallops in another large resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade into bags, dividing equally (about 1/2 cup each). Seal bags; turn to coat. Chill at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
Drain shrimp and scallops; pour marinade into small saucepan. Bring marinade to boil; set aside.
Pat scallops dry. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallops to skillet and sauté until beginning to brown, about 11/2 minutes per side. Transfer to large bowl. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet. Add shrimp and green onions; sauté until shrimp are almost opaque in center, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Return scallops with any accumulated juices to skillet. Add boiled marinade. Simmer until seafood is just opaque in center and mixture is heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to large shallow bowl. Garnish with lime slices. Serve with salsa.
What to drink:
Mexican beer is a natural match for this menu. We like Bohemia ($8 per six-pack) because it's refreshing, crisp, and slightly spicy.

$314.3M awaits Powerball winner
RICHMOND, Ind. -- There was one winning ticket for the $314.3 million Powerball lottery prize, and it was sold in this city on the Indiana-Ohio state line, lottery officials said Sunday.
Lottery officials won't know who holds that ticket until someone comes forward, said Mark Sirkin, a spokesman for the Hoosier Lottery.
"We don't how many people -- if it's one person, or a hundred people -- is the winner. We have no idea. Whoever it is, they're wealthy," Sirkin said.
The ticket bearing the winning numbers -- 2, 8, 23, 29, 35 and the Powerball: 19 -- that were drawn Saturday night was sold at a Speedway convenience store.
Total eclipse of the moon tonight
DENVER -- The Earth's shadow will creep across the moon's surface early Tuesday, slowly eclipsing it and turning it to shades of orange and red.
The total lunar eclipse, the second this year, will be visible in North and South America, especially in the West. People in the Pacific islands, eastern Asia, Australia and New Zealand also will be able to view it if skies are clear.
Since the Earth is bigger than the moon, the process of the Earth's shadow taking a bigger and bigger "bite" out of the moon, totally eclipsing it before the shadow recedes, lasts about 31/2 hours, said Doug Duncan, director of the University of Colorado's Fiske Planetarium. The total eclipse phase, in which the moon has an orange or reddish glow, lasts about 11/2 hours.
The full eclipse will be visible across the United States, but East Coast viewers will only have about a half-hour to see it before the sun begins to rise and the moon sets. Skywatchers in the West will get the full show.
No trans fats for Dunkin'
BOSTON -- Dunkin' Donuts, the food-on-the-go chain whose name celebrates a treat that's symbolic of unhealthy eating, is trying to refresh its image by largely eliminating trans fat across its menu, Homer Simpson be damned.
Dunkin' planned to announce Monday that it has developed an alternative cooking oil and reformulated more than 50 menu items -- doughnuts included. The Canton, Mass.-based chain says its menu will be "zero grams trans fat" by Oct. 15 across its 5,400 U.S. restaurants in 34 states.
About 400 locations nationwide that took part in a four-month test already have made the switch to a new blend of palm, soybean and cottonseed oils.
The ice cream chain Baskin-Robbins, another unit of Dunkin' Brands Inc., plans to be zero grams trans fat by Jan. 1.
Dunkin' isn't claiming it will become "trans fat free," but does say any trans fat in foods including doughnuts, croissants, muffins and cookies will fall below half a gram per serving. Federal regulations allow food labels to say they've got zero grams of trans fat, provided levels fall below the half-gram threshold.
Gas prices falling: The national average price for gasoline dropped about 2.9 cents over the last two weeks, according to a survey released Sunday. The average price of regular gasoline on Friday was about $2.75 a gallon, mid-grade was $2.88, and premium was $2.99, oil industry analyst Trilby Lundberg said. The nation's lowest average price was in Phoenix, where a gallon of regular cost $2.51. The highest was in Honolulu at $3.12, according to the Lundberg Survey of 7,000 stations nationwide.
Big wildfire: Firefighters on Sunday braced for a second day of windy weather that has stoked a huge wildfire in Idaho and forced the evacuation of more than 1,000 homes. The blaze near the mountain town of Ketchum in central Idaho surged on Saturday, when wind also grounded firefighting aircraft, but no buildings had been lost and no one had been seriously injured.

T-minus-24 hours and counting. With just one day to go before millions of Democratic voters go to the polls on Tuesday in 22 different states from Alaska to Alabama, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama will make one last mad dash for votes on Monday.
Clinton will hit three states: two safe, one a bit more unstable. Clinton is campaigning in Connecticut and New York, where she holds sizeable leads in the polls.
But the New York senator is also making two stops in Massachusetts -- where a win could be in jeopardy. With the recent endorsement of Barack Obama by longtime Massachusetts icon Sen. Ted Kennedy and many other influential Kennedy family members, Clinton may be less popular than she once was in Worchester and Boston.
Obama, meantime, is boldly entering the lion's den.
The Illinois senator will hold a rally today at the Meadowlands in East Rutherford, N.J., -- right next door to Giants stadium and just across the river from Clinton's home state.
Obama advisors are hoping that even if he does not win New Jersey outright, he will be able to collect some delegates there, because the state -- like many Super Tuesday states -- does not have a "winner-take-all" prize. Instead delegates are awarded proportionately, by congressional district.
He, too, will will take the fight to Connecticut and Boston today -- but with Sen. Kennedy at his side.
Ever since his win in South Carolina, Obama has been making the argument to voters that he would be a vote for the future, not for the past.
"I can offer a clear and clean break from the failed policies of George W. Bush. I won't have to explain my votes in the past," Obama said Sunday in Delaware.
Clinton, meantime, has been making her closing argument from California to New York with an uplifting message, devoid of many attacks on her one remaining rival. In recent days she has taken to whipping through her stump speech, repeating a catch phrase about "the America she sees" in the future.
"I see an America where the tax code works for everyone again," she said in Minneapolis on Sunday. "I see an America where everyone has quality affordable health care, where every single person is part of a universal health care system, no exceptions, no excuses."
Clinton's husband has also been pushing a positive image across the country, hoping that reinforcing the message that his wife has made change throughout her life will persuade voters to come her way. Gone is the combative Bill Clinton of South Carolina. This former President Clinton is subdued, calm and focused.
On Sunday, Bill Clinton watched the Superbowl with New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson. No word on what they talked about privately over chips and dip, but many are wondering if an endorsement might be coming.
The former President will spend the day today traveling throughout California -- from Santa Ana to Sacramento, Stockton to San Francisco.
Clinton's campaign is hoping to hold onto the Golden State on Tuesday—the largest cache of delegates up for grabs. She has consistently held the lead in California polls, but recent polls have shows Obama making gains.
And Obama has had powerful surrogates in California, too.

Blizzard tore the veil on Reaper of Souls, the first expansion for Diablo III. The big question for me is, will the Reaper reclaim the lost interest of the massive Diablo following? Blizzard conjured none other than Malthael, the Angle of Death, to summon the lost souls of Sanctuary back to its dark battle.
In addition to expanding the story of Diablo III with an all-new, action-packed Act V and introducing the incorruptible Crusader class, Reaper of Souls increases the game's level cap to 70. Players forging ahead with their existing Barbarian, Demon Hunter, Monk, Witch Doctor, and Wizard characters will benefit from an array of fearsome new spells and abilities as they advance in level.
The expansion also builds upon several key features of the Diablo franchise, with a greater emphasis on randomized environments, horrific new monsters, epic new quests, and substantial updates to the loot experience. The redesigned loot system in Reaper of Souls focuses on rewarding players with even better treasure through targeted "smart drops," new and improved multi-level Legendary items, and a third artisan, the Mystic, who can augment an item's power and appearance.
A new Adventure Mode has been added as well; with all Waypoints unlocked in this mode, the entire world becomes the player's battlefield! Included in Adventure Mode are two new game features, Bounties, a randomized objective system, and Nephalem Rifts aka Loot Runs, a randomized dungeon system, provide fun and rewarding challenges for players to tackle when they're looking for new ways to test their might. Diablo III's Paragon progression system will also be receiving several updates for the expansion, adding even more endgame character advancement and replayability.
In Reaper of Souls, players will be able to experience the world of Sanctuary through two different games modes: Campaign Mode and Adventure Mode. In Campaign Mode, players reprise their pivotal roles as the heroes of Sanctuary in this latest chapter of the continuing Diablo saga. All quests, cut-scenes, in-game movies, and NPC dialogue will be available and progression is intentionally linear. Campaign Mode is very similar to how Diablo III plays currently.
Adventure Mode is Diablo III's new sandbox mode, where players have the freedom to explore and play the game however they like. All waypoints are now unlocked, soplayers can go where they want, when they want. The waypoint list has been replaced with a waypoint map, a metaphor for the world that serves as a guide for Bounties and a checklist of completed gameplay options. The world is literally your battlefield! Adventure Mode also includes the aforementioned Bounties and Nephalem Rifts.
The Crusader class will only be available to players who purchase the expansion.
In Reaper of Souls, the game difficulty settings have been updated to Easy, Normal, Hard, Torment, Demonic and Apocalypse. Similar to the way the tiered settings and Monster Power work in Diablo III, higher difficulty levels present more powerful enemies who will potentially reward players with more powerful loot! Unlike the previous tiered difficulty system, though, players are not required to defeat the game on a lower setting in order to unlock a higher difficulty setting. These settings can be selected at any time, for both Campaign Mode and Adventure Mode, making it more convenient than ever to find the level of challenge that's right for you!
These changes are intended to be released as part of a pre-expansion patch and will be made available to all players.
Act V continues the story where it left off in Diablo III, taking players through the legendary city of Westmarch to the ancient halls of the Pandemonium Fortress
Level cap increased to 70, enabling players to reach new heights of powe
Check out the latest Reaper of Souls trailer.
Blizzard also release a gameplay trailer, "Ultimate Evil Edition" for the PlayStation 4.
Are you returning to Sanctuary to take on Death? You have until 2014 to contemplate your fate.

Rookie Dennis Kelly will take his first snap in the NFL in place of injured right guard Danny Watkins for the Philadelphia Eagles against Atlanta on Sunday. Watkins, a first-round pick last year, is out with an ankle injury that coach Andy Reid labeled as ''chronic.'' Kelly, a fifth-round pick from Purdue, played tackle in college. Linebacker Jamar Chaney and wide receiver Damaris Johnson are among Philadelphia's healthy inactives. Chaney was a starter earlier in the season. Johnson began the season as the Eagles' punt returner. Wide receiver Harry Douglas is inactive for the Falcons because of ankle and knee injuries. --- Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL

Baby Product Reviews
I know a lot of moms, moms-to-be, and future moms read my blog, so I thought I'd write a post on our favorite (and not-so-favorite) baby items. If you recall, when I first got pregnant I had absolutely no idea what to do with a child… even looking at those "suggested registry" lists made me break out in a cold sweat, because I didn't even know what half of the things on the list WERE. So I researched every single thing we bought to death! And here's the product of my experience so far.
1. Boppy pillow. This has been absolutely critical to me every time I nurse. I have zero arm strength and no motivation to get any, so I NEED this to prop her up to my boob. It saves my back, too… and you spend a zillion hours a day nursing if you end up exclusively breastfeeding. You can also put the baby on it for playtime and tummy time. I used it to bottle feed in the beginning when I was pumping a lot, so formula feeders can get use out of it too.
2. Dr. Brown's bottles. Everyone has a different opinion on bottles, but I love these. They have extra parts which are kind of a pain to clean, but it's worth it for the reduction in gas and spit-up. I have a reflux baby. I would know.
3. Lansinoh double electric pump. Half the price of the Medela pumps, but I actually got better output with this pump than with my Medela hospital rental. Probably because I wasn't howling in pain the entire time I was hooked up to the thing.
4. Boppy bouncy seat. Half the time I just use it when I need to put her down. Even more important, we've had the same batteries in it since she was born (and we turn it on many times a day) and they are still going strong! Plus, it has catchy music.
5. As far as diapers go, we liked Pampers for disposables. We are currently in the process of switching to cloth, and for those we use BumGenius organic one-size (with the snaps). I'll be discussing my unlikely transformation into crunchy-hippie mama in a future post. Stay tuned.
6. Baby Bjorn or some other front carrier. 90% of the time I use this rather than a stroller. Also great for around the house when they are fussy in the evenings!
7. Fisher Price Ocean Wonders Aquarium. We've attached this to her cradle and she cannot fall asleep without it. She will even put herself to sleep without crying while she stares at it… enough said, right?
8. AngelCare movement monitor. We received this as a gift, but even if we hadn't, it would still absolutely have been worth the $100 or whatever it costs. We were so anxious about her breathing when we left the NICU that this literally saved our sanity. Even if your baby isn't in the NICU, you will probably waste a lot of YOUR sleep time constantly checking on their breathing. This gives you the peace of mind that everything is okay… and if it isn't, you'll know about it right away. And we've never had a single false alarm (although it does go off if we lift her out of the cradle and forget to turn it off, so I feel confident it would go off if she stopped breathing).
9. Halo sleepsacks and Kiddopotamus SwaddleMes. Swaddling is key to sleeping long stretches… otherwise, baby whacks him/herself in the face and wakes up. Receiving blankets don't work for very long– baby busts out of them pretty easily, and the SwaddleMes have velcro tabs to hold the swaddle tight all night long. The sleepsacks are key if you worry about the SIDS risk of having loose blankets in baby's bed.
1. Nursing glider. I rarely sit in it, but it's a nice luxury. Sometimes it will calm her when I rock in it, but not always. If you have a recliner or rocking chair already, I'd say skip the expense.
2. Swing. It seems to me that everyone else's baby loves to sleep in it, but Caroline will only sit in it for a couple minutes with a pouty look on her face before she starts screaming. Not all babies like them, so I'd recommend waiting until you actually have your baby and then go test one out at Babies R Us to see if you have a swing baby.
3. Snuggle Nest. Even if you don't want to cosleep, chances are you will at one time or another in the beginning, just so you can get a little sleep! The snuggle nest lets the baby be close to you (some even have a little night light and an incline for reflux/congestion) but keeps him or her away from covers and pillows, which is much safer and gives you peace of mind. Not totally necessary, but nice to have. Also useful for transitioning to the crib from a bassinet or cradle (baby still feels secure in a smaller space within the bigger crib).
1. Huggies diapers: blowout central. (Although I have heard this depends on the baby.) Unless you have stock in stain remover, in which case hey, go for it.
2. Dreft laundry detergent. You don't need it, and the fragrance ingredients can actually irritate some babies' skin. Just use a "free and clear" detergent– Caroline has super sensitive skin, and this has worked fine for us so far.
3. Travel system. ALERT! DO NOT get this. I ignored lots of advice and got one because I didn't want to buy the Snap 'n Go frame for the carseat and then have to buy another stroller later on… but they are HEAVY and awful and I just don't use mine because it's too much of a struggle. Get the infant carseat, Snap 'n Go, and later on get a lightweight stroller like a Maclaren.
So, there you go! I hope it's somewhat helpful to someone out there. Feel free to ask any questions in the comments, I will try to remember to answer them!Add a Comment

It is funny how each baby is different,our swing has been our life saver. We actually have three one fold up travel swing, a graco pooh bear swing that was a gift and the fisher price rain forest cradle swing. I can't count the number of hours Ian has slept in his swing. Also I can't live with out my travel system.

I came across your blog on the bump site and I wanted to say hi! I got pregnant in my third year of medical school so I can really relate to your story. I am really glad everything worked out for you guys, your daughter is beautiful! My son is now almost 10 months old and we are getting ready to move from Texas to West Hartford for my residency. How do you like CT? Just wanted to let you know that being a student and having a baby is totally doable. Thanks for sharing your story!

Ginger– you must be coming to my school! It's not bad here in CT (I grew up here so I might be biased)… a little boring, but pretty, and close enough to NYC and Boston to go on the weekends. Congrats on finishing med school with a baby! I am worried about going back and handling everything, but I'm sure it will all work out.

totally agree about the Huggies. they are the WORST! we are a Pampers family
On May 14, 2009 at 9:45 pm
DD was my second child, but I had a 7 year gap inbetween so I had NO IDEA what to get. DH and I walked into BRU and walked right out…lol I wish I would have had a list like this to go off of. I ended up spending countless hours reading reviews on everything. I totally agree on pampers, boppy, swaddle me, Dr. Browns, and the BJORN. DD being a preemie and me being a germ freak I also love my microwave sanitzer.DD loved her swing when she was a newborn. It was the only way she would let us put her down.

Thanks for all the great tips! I was wondering about the breathing monitor and now I think we'll definitely be getting one. I was also on the fence about getting a travel system or just a snap and go stroller frame for the carseat, I think I'll skip the travel system.

This is a great list! I totally felt the same way about trying to figure out all the stuff I needed. I am glad to see you have the AngelCare! I love it. But I do have to admit I also love my travel system, and I use it a lot. As for other things, I love my receiving blankets. They are so useful for swaddling (when they're really small), cuddling with them on the couch, burping, making a "baby space" on the floor, tucking them into the carseat, bringing to baby yoga, etc.
