The Powerball lottery just went through its 12th consecutive drawing without a grand prize winner, so the jackpot that began on Oct. 6 at $40 million is now estimated to be $214 million for the drawing on Saturday, Nov. 17.
The cash option prize for the next game will be $214 million with a $143 million cash value.
Lottery Post reports that the winning Powerball winning numbers for the drawing of Wednesday, Nov. 14, were 8, 10, 30, 44, and 58, and the Powerball was 13. Two tickets matched the first five numbers without the Powerball to win $1 million, neither of them coming from New Jersey.
One winning ticket from New Jersey claimed the $1 million second prize in the Powerball drawing of Nov. 10, and it came from Atlantic County. Philly.com reports that the ticket was purchased at AV&K Petroleum on the White Horse Pike in Galloway.
A few days before that, Ocean County had a winner in the Jersey Cash 5 drawing of Nov. 5. According to lottery.com, one winning ticket earned a prize of $225,998. The winner was sold at Stop & Shop on Kennedy Boulevard in Lakewood.
Lottery Post tells the story of a Hurricane Sandy cleanup volunteer from Chicago who ran into some unexpected good fortune. John Turner of Chicago Heights operates a water removal business known as National Catastrophe Solutions of Chicago, and he and his team cleaned up a number of flooded homes for free for some homeowners who had lost everything.
Last Sunday Turner, who was born in New Jersey, bought a scratch-off ticket and won $100,000. It was a happy story in an otherwise dismal setting.
"It's really, really sad," he said about the hurricane damage. "We hope they get back to normal as quickly as possible."

We have a ways before the boys get to come home, but I know they will come home at different times. I am already wondering how is that going to work with NICU visits and what am I not thining of that I should prepare for. Any advice?

Well, I don't have twins, but I saw a lot of this during my son's stay in the NICU. All hospitals are different, but ours allowed siblings to visit with their parents. Breast feeding mommas could take both babies into the nursing room at the same time when it was time for them to eat. You should be able to talk to a nurse and set up some sort of schedule. If they know when you are coming to visit, they might be able to work something out for you and your boys.

At one of dd's locations there were twins where one went home while we were there. They simply brought the other twin with them, and come to think of it, they usually used one of the semi-open pumping rooms right in the pod (they had these, plus tiny private pumping rooms). The mom always had someone with her too. Of course, she wasn't exactly the most "can-do" mom, if you KWIM. Perhaps a FTM, not sure, but even most FTM are more "can-do".

Hi! Congrats on your boys, and I hope they come home soon!!!! My twins came home about 3 weeks apart. My son came home one day before my due date but my daughter kept desatting during feeds so she had to stay in the NICU. Fortunately our NICU had very flexible hours so I went into NY every night by myself and left my son with DF. It wasn't easy. I felt guilty leaving my son at home, but felt guilty because my baby girl was still in the hospital and alone. I became very good friends with the night nurses during that period because I was there every night, I always brought food , and many parents visit during the day so I got the nurses all to myself :) They gave me so many tips on baby products, what to buy and what not to, and how to care for them. It all worked out in the end but it was tough, and I just didn't know where I was supposed to be. As for taking my son with me...I just wasn't having it. Once out...there was no way I was taking him back to the NICU to be exposed to germs. Not that I'm a "germophobe" but I was so glad to have at least one baby out of there, taking him back for visits with his sister didn't even cross my mind. I would say that if you get to take one of your precious boys home and have someone to watch him, see if your NICU will allow some flexibility with visiting hours. Good luck with everything! It will be fabulous once you have them both home - being a twin mommy is awesome.
Mom to 30 weekers Angela & Michael, born 11/29/06
My girls were planning on coming home about a week but Olivia woke up oneday and they came home together. But we had discussed it. If it was less than a week difference, we were going to leave Hannah in there with Olivia and bring them home together (they were sharing a crib at that point). Now that was a struggle because leaving a baby at the hospital is a risk for that baby to get sick, and having someone else caring for your LO. But we felt that both babies would have been hurt by taking one home since they were sharing a bed and were use to having each other there.
If your going to have to leave one baby behind, then you will have to get a sitter for the home baby while visiting the NICU baby. It will be hard, but you'll figure it out as you go along. I had 2 boys at home when the girls where in the NICU and it was hard because I was so torn between home and the NICU.
Our NICU allowed siblings but NOT that young. So bringing a twin with you, was not allowed but I could have figured out a way to do it so the girls were together at least a little bit.
good luck

Mine were just a day apart so no big deal but my friends were a little longer. She just took her daughter home at night and then brought her back the next day and put her back in the crib with her son. She did have issues that her daughter didn't want to sleep because she wasn't in the crib with her brother but then slept fine during the day when she put her back in the crib.

Our triplets came home at 26 days, 33 days, and 35 days. It was nice to slowly get our feet wet, but it did make visiting the NICU harder. Our babies were allowed back but it was hard to find time. Don't beat yourself up if you aren't able to go as often or stay as long...they will both be home soon enough.
After 6 IUI's our triplets were born 7/08 Baby #4 after 2 IUI's born 12/10 http://tripmomma.blogspot.com/
My twin sons came home 10 days apart. One came home with me from the hospital and the other was in the NICU for another 10 days. Our situation was doubly tough since the NICU was in a different hospital over an hour away! It was very hard and stressful, I had preclampsia and had dangerously high blood pressure after their birth, so I was on limited travel. I only got to go see my LO in the NICU twice! It was pretty awful. But my husband went everyday and sent me video footage and things. There is really no trick getting through it. Just know that one day soon you will all be together and try to hang in there. Good luck and congrats!
wife to Adam, the most incredible father in the world and proud mom of twins boys Xavier and Octavian.
Our hospital didn't allow released patients back into the NICU so when my son came home before his brother it was tough. I ended up going to the hospital at night after DH got home from work. He was there 10 days longer than his brother and it was a tough 10 days. I know there was a day or two I couldn't even make it in because I was too tired to drive the 45 minutes to the NICU. The nurses were great about it and they completely understood how hard it is for parents to come in when one child is already home. We got through it the best we could.
I think you should find out what your hospital's policy is on bringing one back and that should help make your plans.
Mommy to twins Edward & Jacob (12/5/04), and Isaac (2/13/07)
Hi. My son came home a week before my daughter did. What worked for us was my husband going up to the NICU to see our daughter during the day while I stayed home with our son and then I would go up at night to see her and he would stay home with our son. My son was not allowed back in the NICU once he was released. They were very strict on that. So this way one of us was always with one of our babies.
It is going to be exhausting because you will have one baby home that you are caring for and another baby that you will drive and go see. It took alot out of me. You will get into a little routine at home with your little one and then when your other little one comes home you can try to get him on to the schedule you already have. I tried to keep them on the same schedule that they were on in the NICU so the transition to home was a little easier when my daughter came home.

Thanks for the pointers. I will be shocked if they co-bed (dure to the severity of the smaller ones condition) and th will probably be 4-6 weeks apart! :( Who knows, they just began to feed my smaller guy and maybe he will turn around and surprise us. I already have a 19 month old at home and I can imagine it will probably feel the same leaving James behind as it does when I leave Hannah at home.

Originally written on Fox Sports Southwest | Last updated 11/13/12
The Cowboys accomplished plenty of rare things on Sunday. One that jumps off the page is the fact that they scored a special teams TD, an interception TD, and a fumble TD all in the same quarter. According to Elias, that is the first time since San Francisco did it in 1966, so any stat that gives you over 40 years to consider you can understand how rare a feat it was. Of course, none of that mentioned the offense, because, well, the offense didn't have too much to puff out its chest about. The fact is, that if the special teams or defense would not have pitched in and assisted the effort on Sunday, we are a bit cynical in our belief that Dallas would have been able to stick that game in the win column. Regardless, they certainly did get a win, and that will be just the fifth time under the GarrettRomo regime (2007-present) that they have won a game in which the offense did not generate 300 yards of offense. Three hundred yards is a poor amount of yardage production in the NFL....

A TV sitcom
While some might question the comic potential of a movie concerning grave robbing and forced brain transplants, Mike Nelson and his 'bot pals Crow and Tom Servo mine plenty of laugh fodder from 1963'sThe Atomic Brainin this fifth-season episode ofMystery … see full wiki
MST3K riffed on a number of failed horror films in its decade of life, and this is a fairly typical example of the genre. It's not so much creepy as queasy, especially with the film's obvious fascination with beautiful and vulnerable young women. As always, M&TB make the most of a bad situation.
As I've noted in some other reviews of MST releases by Rhino, 'The Atomic Brain' is not one of the absolute best MST eps (in my opinion). However, several of the host segments in this episode are worth mentioning, including Mike's chin puppet and The Bots' satire of the Mads in the invention exchange.

I don't buy it.Originally Posted by SC Reds Fans
A blister is going to stop you from snapping off a tight slider or split-finger pitch, but it wouldn't have any impact on your ability to throw a changeup, and it shouldn't have too much impact on throwing a curveball. Homer could have mixed in a few changeups and even thrown a couple of curveballs off the plate just to show the hitters some different speeds.
He was out there 'throwing', not 'pitching'. It seems pretty obvious that he doesn't have a lot of confidence in his changeup and that he reverts to 'thrower mode' when he is off his game. That ain't gonna get it done against major leaguers.

Seeking Michigan Adds New Death Records
The Archives of Michigan is thrilled to announce that images of Michigan death certificates from 1921 - 1939 are now available for free at Seeking Michigan:
The index for records from 1940-1952 will be made available in the next few weeks, with additional certificate images to be released each year as privacy restrictions are lifted. Together with the records from 1897-1920 that have been available at the site for years, this collection makes Seeking Michigan the one-stop destination for more than 2.6 million free, publicly-available 20th century death records for Michigan ancestors.
This 1921-1952 collection of death certificates and indexes, in partnership with the Michigan Department of Community Health and FamilySearch, covers a critical period in the growth and development of Michigan. Here, researchers will find evidence of the influx of Eastern European immigration, the emergence of Detroit as the automotive capital of the world, and a state crippled by the Great Depression. Those ancestors that immigrated to Michigan, worked the assembly line, and sturggled to make ends meet can all be found here.
An individual's last name, first name, county and township/village/city of death, birth year, age, and parents' names are all indexed and searchable. Additional information, including the decedent's occupation, cause of death, burial location, and birthplace is listed on the certificate itself.
Michigan death records from 1807-1952 are now all in one place, for free! And, as luck would have it, Seeking Michigan is also celebrating its 6th birthday today.
Enjoy and happy searching!
The Detroit News Indexes
The Archives of Michigan received well over 1 million index cards from The Detroit News at the end of 2014. These cards have been scanned into batches of 500 - 1000 cards per PDF file. The tables of files are organized alphabetically by starting and ending subject. These index cards appear to cover from the beginning of The Detroit News into the late 1990s.
The Archives of Michigan does not have microfilm of The Detroit Newspaper at this time. Because the cards are organized by subject, be prepared to look for different but related subjects if the first subject you try doesn't yield a result.
Passenger and Crew List Indexes
The Passenger and Crew List Indexes are now ready to examine.

A New Genealogy Radio Station
There is a new radio station in town just for genealogists. The program will be on WCXI, 1160 AM on Saturday evenings from 5-6 pm. The station is located in Southfield and covers a large area.
The goal is to entertain and inform the public about researching their ancestry, do's and don't's, linking historical events and the lives of their ancestors, local historical society events, and so forth.

Joynes Events: Contemporary Photography: Dan & Jill Burkholder and Robb Kendrick
Wed, April 27, 2011 • 7:00 PM • Joynes Room, Carothers (CRD) 007, 2501 Whitis Ave. Enter through the east doors of the honors quad
The Goddess Diana outside of the Joynes Room, Honors Quad
Three top contemporary photographers who use antique photographic techniques (such as daguerrotype and bromoil processes) will show slides of their work and discuss their careers.
Robb Kendrick is a photographer whose work appears regularly in National Geographic. Kendrick's true passion has become wet plate photography, a historic photo technique used during the mid-19th century. The tintype photos made with the wet-plate process are each one of a kind as they are all handmade from start to finish. He is also working in daguerrotype, ultra-large format and combining audio and video with his tintype imagery. His photographs have been collected into several books, including the recent Still: Cowboys at the Start of the 21st Century.
Jill Skupin Burkholder's photographs have been exhibited internationally, and her prints are included in permanent collections at the Museum of Fine Art in Houston and the Harry Ransom Center in Austin. She uses the traditional bromoil process, in her photographs, producing a highly impressionistic texture in her prints. She also uses the encaustic process, which involves the application of hot, pigmented beeswax to the surface of a print. Jill has taught workshops for the Texas Photographic Society, the Photographer's Formulary in Montana, and at the Santa Fe Photographic Workshops.
Dan Burkholder has embraced many alternative processes and photographic techniques, from platinum printing to iPhone artistry. He was a pioneer of digital photography in the early 1990s and teaches workshops on High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography. His book The Color of Loss; an Intimate Portrait of New Orleans after Katrina (University of Texas Press, 2008), presents a stunning hyperrealistic study of the destruction suffered by the city and its residents.
This event is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Matt Valentine at firstname.lastname@example.com, or call the Joynes Reading Room: 512-471-5787.

Harrisburg, Pa (PRWEB) September 03, 2014
It is a national trend – people have a grave misconception of how much is spent on education and what they get for their money. Several studies gauging awareness and attitudes about public schools and spending have revealed discontent. Now we learn, nearly three-quarters of Pennsylvania voters underestimate the amount the state spends on education, according to a poll released by the Commonwealth Foundation. And, in a stinging rebuke to the status quo, 53 percent of those polled grade Pennsylvania's public school system a D or F overall when informed of student achievement levels.
The findings are in line with those of other recent studies throughout the country that found half of those asked underestimated national education spending, according to a Friedman Foundation report. More than half of those polled in Michigan assumed spending had been cut when it had been increased, according to a Watchdog Wire poll, and 20% gave public schools an A or a B nationwide, according to a recent Education Next survey.
The Commonwealth Foundation survey, released August 26th and conducted by national polling firm The Tarrance Group, questioned 600 Pennsylvania registered voters on their knowledge of state education spending and performance levels.
"This poll reveals that voters are largely misinformed about what the state spends on public schools and are stunned by the inadequate achievement levels their money is buying," commented Nathan Benefield, vice president of policy analysis for the Commonwealth Foundation. "It's also clear that the public favors alternatives to tax increases to fix the education system. When voters were informed of funding and achievement facts, support for boosting education funding by hiking taxes dropped significantly."
Key poll results:
The poll, designed to inform the debate over a new state education funding formula begun last week by the Basic Education Funding Commission, also gauged changes in perceptions after voters were informed of the facts.
After spending and performance facts were revealed:
Benefield continued: "At a time when skyrocketing school pension costs are driving property taxes ever higher, it's clear that voters require a good return on their education investment. In the debate over school funding changes, it's up to lawmakers to change the perceptions of more than half of voters who grade schools a D or F.
"To accomplish this, we need fundamental reforms beyond throwing more money at the problem—like addressing pension reform, ending rigid seniority rules, and expanding cost-saving school choice programs."
The telephone poll of 600 registered "likely" voters who were part of a fully representative sample based on the latest voter registration figures within the state. It has a +/- 4.1% margin of error. Each interview lasted about eight minutes and was conducted between August 18- 20th.
Nathan Benefield is available for comment on the implications of these poll results. Please contact Cindy Hamill at (856) 607-4208 to schedule an interview.

Former Telstra boss Sol Trujillo is said to be working on a private equity deal to buy the fourth largest cellular telco in the United States, T-Mobile.
The deal, reported by Bloomberg, is in the region of $US30 billion ($AU28.5 billion) which, if true, would make Trujillo's latest move the largest leveraged telco buy-out ever.
Trujillo has reportedly been in talks with equity firms Blackstone Group and KKR & Co, but the deal is yet to get off the ground as the two companies are sceptical of the proposal due to its size and cost of financing.
T-Mobile USA, part of the global brand owned by German incumbent Deutsche Telekom, has been on the block for some years now.
AT&T bid $US39 billion for the teco last year, gaining some regulatory approval, but the deal fell through after the US Department of Justice objected to the deal on antitrust grounds.
The company's spectrum assets are considered T-Mobile's greatest attraction.
It has significant spectrum stocks in the 1700, 1900 and 2100 MHz bands, and operates a GSM and 3G networks across the US and affiliated states. It also operates a wi-fi hotspot network throughout the United States and intends to launch an LTE service next year.
Trujillo, who led Telstra for four years before leaving in 2009, was seen as instrumental in overseeing the construction of the Next G mobile network in Australia and establishing the telco as a significant engineering-led company.
However, the company was also known as arrogant under his leadership, an issue that ultimately led to Telstra beginning structural separation under the Federal Government's National Broadband Network plan after failing to submit a compliant bid for the first NBN proposal.
According to its latest set of figures, T-Mobile is still profitable, with $US5.2 billion revenues, after significant recent job cuts. The company is losing customers, having shed a record 205,000 in the last quarter, and its revenue from contract subscribers fell nine percent year-on-year.
At the end of 2011, T-Mobile counted 33.2 million customers.

JOHANNESBURG — The rhino's rescuers gave her a name: Hope.
Poachers in South Africa had darted the rhino with a tranquilizer and hacked off her horns while she was sedated, leaving the animal with a horrific wound covering much of her face. A couple of days later, staff on a wildlife reserve found the grievously injured rhino — alive.
NAIROBI, Kenya — There was sobbing and silent grief. Some boiled with bitterness, while others found solace in memories of the dead. One mother considered suicide until counselors talked her out of it.
The raw emotions were on display this week at a Nairobi morgue as relatives viewed the bodies of their loved ones killed April 2 in an attack at Garissa University College by Islamic militants.
JOHANNESBURG — As Islamic militants from Boko Haram step up attacks in Nigeria that have led to the slaughter of more civilians, there is increasing talk that international military action, possibly including a multinational force, may be needed to help crush the insurgency in Africa's most populous country.
The debate has taken on new urgency since Jan. 3, when Boko Haram extremists swept into the northeastern town of Baga in Borno state, overran a military base and, according to witnesses, killed hundreds of civilians in the days that followed.
PRETORIA, South Africa — An expert witness for the defense at the murder trial of Oscar Pistorius was supposed to help the athlete's assertion that he killed his girlfriend by mistake last year, but he ended his testimony on Thursday amid blistering attacks on his credibility by a prosecutor who accused him of slipshod analysis and fuzzy explanations.
PRETORIA, South Africa — For five days, Oscar Pistorius endured a withering cross-examination at his murder trial from a prosecutor who pounced on apparent inconsistencies in his testimony. Yet, legal analysts said Tuesday, expert witnesses who will testify for the defense could undermine the prosecution's efforts to prove Pistorius killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on purpose after an argument.
PRETORIA, South Africa — Oscar Pistorius came under intense pressure Monday at his murder trial from the chief prosecutor, who dismissed his account of how he killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp as a flimsy web of lies and accused the Olympian of staging emotional outbursts to mask difficulty in answering a barrage of probing questions.
His voice quavering at times, Pistorius struggled to explain alleged inconsistencies in his testimony and broke down sobbing on two occasions, forcing Judge Thokozile Masipa to temporarily halt proceedings.
PRETORIA, South Africa — His voice shaking, Oscar Pistorius took the witness stand Monday for the first time, testifying that he was trying to protect the girlfriend he killed and that he became so tormented by memories of the fatal shooting and panic attacks that he once hid helplessly in a closet.
PRETORIA, South Africa — Standing with his arms straight out in front of him and gripping an imaginary pistol in court, a South African police ballistics expert showed Tuesday how he estimated the trajectory of the four bullets Oscar Pistorius fired through a toilet door while standing on his stumps to kill his girlfriend.
Capt. Christiaan Mangena said Pistorius shot at a slightly downward angle into the cubicle where Reeva Steenkamp was, with the bullet holes around 3 feet high in the wood door. Pistorius was about 7 feet away from the door when he shot, Mangena said.
JOHANNESBURG — One of Nelson Mandela's closest confidants is still challenging the powers that be, with plenty of guidance from his ancestors, the ancient Greeks.
"Power, even in advanced democracies, is abused. It's part of life," said George Bizos, a Greek-born lawyer who defended Mandela at the 1960s trial in which the anti-apartheid leader was sentenced to life in prison.
QUNU, South Africa — His flag-draped casket resting on a carpet of animal skins, Nelson Mandela was laid to rest Sunday in the green, rolling hills of the eastern hamlet where he began his extraordinary journey — one that led him from prison to the presidency, a global symbol of endurance and reconciliation in the fight against South Africa's racist rule.
JOHANNESBURG — Nelson Mandela was a master of forgiveness.
South Africa's first black president spent nearly a third of his life as a prisoner of apartheid, yet he sought to win over its defeated guardians in a relatively peaceful transition of power that inspired the world.

YouTube has teamed up with Bruce Seidel (from Food Network and Cooking Channel) to launch a new online food channel called HUNGRY on July 2. The venture is to test out the niche-oriented programming campaign the video site is implementing. The professionally developed videos will have shows featuring former Food Network stars such as Duff Goldman from "Ace of Cakes."
Hopefully Goldman's new series will teach users how to create sweets like this Harry Potter cake.

When I heard that they would bring out a Scout, I had some hope. I was horrified that it was essentially a full blwon HD clone with Indian on the tank!! Then I heard that Indian had their own engine, the Power Plus, I waited and what do you know? It is a god damned HD clone with rounded barrels! What is really mind bending for me are the owners of these bikes who will belittle, and bad mouth HD until the cows come home and be in complete denail that thier beloved Indian is a cheap HD knock off. The other thing too, was Indian was asking, and getting MORE $$ for their bikes than HD was! Granted, the HD was likely to run a little longer than the Indian. Check any owner forum and read the horror stories of all kinds of mechanical mayhem, brand new bikes breaking down on the ride home and being stuck in a shop for weeks to months! Then amazingly enough, in 2003 just as Indian was about to be in the black money wise, the plug was pulled by the inestors. Indian, like a bad curry, hung around and oce again i was duped into being hopeful. The Kings Mountain bikes ain't much better either. So, I once again have hope that Polaris will do Indian justice in 2014. I ain't holding my breath mind you.
Did you ever actually ride one? Sounds like this is a bike you wanted to hate and did as opposed to a "bike you didn't like as much as you thought you would".
IMO, the whole Indian thing was a blatant money grab, but the bike wasn't more disappointing than anyone expected - we all knew it would be crap.

TwinView Problem With Two CRTs

Re: TwinView Problem With Two CRTs
But do you connect them with DVI to VGA converter? If my card has two VGA output I doubt it would cause any trouble.
Btw, when I plug a DVI LCD as second monitor it works, I tried it like, I started X then I changed the outpu from DVI LCD to CRT using DVI to analog converter. Then suddenly that damn CRT monitor started to show left half of virtual space again.
Also I noticed that, when a real DFP monitor is plugged, It says EDID provided 1280x1024 added to modes, and when it was CRT it was using 1024x768 added to modes. However I run my desktop at 1280x1024, both monitors are same and they support this modes.
Anyways, I really belive that this is a bug in driver or smoething that sends CRT output to CRT monitors, and since both of them are CRT it sends same output to both of them. I wish I had a chance to try it with windows, but I only use linux.

Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

My life is just missing one thing.....
Hi, I'm Sara. I'm not very good at describing myself, but I'll give it a try! I've at a point in my life where I want to find a partner to share my future with. I want to find a partner that shares my dreams of travel, family and children. I love living in an area where there are so many outdoor activities to enjoy. Whether it's kayaking local lakes, inner tubing the Wenatchee river or just taking a quiet hike in the mountains; I love taking advantage of the local scenery - whether it's by myself or with a group of friends. I've also been able to pursue my interest in photography recently and feel lucky to live in such a beautiful region. On rainy days I enjoy curling up in front of my fireplace with a good book and a glass of wine. I also enjoy do-it-yourself projects around my home - I'm no stranger to a chain saw! I've found success in my work - not only do I have a full time job but I also have my own business that I absolutely love! Thank you for your time - I love life and I can't wait to find the right person to share the adventure with!

I love to travel and especially any place off the beaten path! I also enjoy traditional destinations like Europe and Mexico. Favorite places I have visited...Vietnam and Rwanda. I do Cabo every fall and spend a lot of time at Lake Wenatchee.
University of Puget Sound, Tacoma, WA
Sunshine, good wine, music, the lake, my adorable nephews, and laughing until it hurts.
I love getting dressed up for a night on the town just as much as I enjoy cooking dinner at home and watching a great movie. I'm a Hawks season ticket holder and am planning on going to the Super Bowl in February! I love anything outdoors.
I read a lot. Some of my recent favs: The Hunger Games, Divergetn, Pint Sized Ireland, The Shack, Three Cups of Tea, Decision Points, Twilight (hey! don't judge!), The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.

That trend has continued in recent years and is testified to in the fact that no European nation has seen as many players drafted in recent years than has Sweden.

Defensemen, hardworking forwards lead Pittsburgh Penguins prospect awards
The 2013-14 season was a good one for many Pittsburgh Penguins prospects. Over 500 man games lost to injury at the NHL level paved the way for several players, such as Brian Gibbons, Jayson Megna, and Brian Dumoulin, to make their NHL debuts. Several other prospects, like Josh Archibald, Tristan Jarry, and Matt Murray had breakout seasons and elevated their status within the organization.
