Tim McGraw Has the Prescription for a Happy Marriage
Tim McGraw's upcoming Shotgun Rider Tour is more than just a night of music and fun. In fact, it may just be the cure for a common ailment.

Forget Tinder. This may be the new way to meet someone special.
Marriage takes a lot of work, especially when your lives are the focus of the public eye, like country star Carrie Underwood and her NHL husband Mike Fisher. They share a few of their secrets to a happy marriage, and one of them involves ... not being together.
Whitney Duncan is a married woman! The country singer shared a photo of her nuptials to Keith Tollefson on Facebook on Tuesday (July 29).
May 14 is Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert's third wedding anniversary, but the 'Automatic' singer isn't expecting a gift. She knows he's busy with 'The Voice' and doesn't want to be a "burden."
When you're a superstar, your personal life gets pushed into the spotlight almost as much as your career. Mix that with marrying a fellow famous face and you have the life of Miranda Lambert and husband Blake Shelton, whose marriage is constantly being put on blast -- often in a negative life.
All eyes will be on newly-engaged actress Hayden Panettiere when she walks down the aisle in her wedding dress on her big day. While she's used to being the center of attention on the red carpet, the 24-year-old dishes on why she's apprehensive about her processional.
You probably remember back a little while ago, I saw a sign on the side of South Limit where a young person asked "Nomi" to go to prom with him. Now another local Sedalian took another chance and raised the stakes with their own romance!
'Duck Dynasty' is again in the news for controversial reasons. A video has surfaced on YouTube of patriarch Phil Robertson giving some controversial marriage advice to the men of the world several years ago.
Jake Owen got a digital "talking to" from Barbara Brooks, the wife of country legend Kix Brooks, after he tweeted a picture of himself wearing a bit of a sarcastically sexist T-shirt that read: "Cool Story Babe. Now Go Make Me a Sandwich."

Originally written on RedSoxLife | Last updated 1/27/13
With Spring Training less than a month away, the Red Sox 40 Man Roster should be fairly set until the end of camp. I'll take this opportunity to review the entire roster. Lets face it, there's not much else going on. In an up and down 2012, Buchholz's start on Fenway's 100th was a downer. It's hard to believe it has already been five years since Clay Buchholz burst on to the scene late in the 2007 season and threw a no-hitter in his second Major League start. Five years later we still don't know exactly what Buchholz is. He came up right around the same time as Phil Hughes and it is ironic how two prospects who were often compared to each other have had such similar careers. Buchholz did show enough in the middle of last season that he still has it in him to be closer to the pitcher he was in 2012 when he had a 2.33 ERA. The only concern is that when Buchholz came up his calling card was his advanced secondary offerings, while his fastball was only average or perhaps a t...

All across America, judges are loath to throw out cases against polarizing, attractive brunettes. In North Carolina, "U.S. District Court Judge Catherine C. Eagles in Greensboro ruled that the federal government's case against [John Edwards] can go forward, denying five motions by his legal team intended to keep the case against him from going to a jury," the Associated Press reports.
Edwards, the boyish, twice-failed presidential candidate and former U.S. senator, is set to stand trial on "charges that he asked two wealthy campaign donors to provide nearly $1 million in secret payments used to hide his pregnant mistress." Good lord, his lawyers have got to come up with a better way of saying that before this thing goes to trial. How about: John Edwards is facing … rumors … that he … unburdened senior citizens of the weight of their … overwhelming liquidity … so he could … protect his baby.

text: The Repetitive Chitchat wiki last edited by BeachThunder on 05/28/14 08:53PM View full history OverviewRepetitive chit-chat can be found in many JRPGs. It's when characters say the same thing over and over again - usually with no variation. The reason for such a obvious problem is the lack of time for both writers and voice actors. A writer has so much story to write about that they don't have time to write more dialog for characters to say that isn't story. A voice actor has already so much to story to put their voice behind, it would cost time and money to record different variations of voice and dialogue.Infamous ExamplesGameQuote Clive Barker's Jericho"Thank you, Jesus!"

That answer is easy and short: Now. Here are some longer answers to tougher questions. As always, thanks for your borderline ridiculously intense interest.
I think it's because he's upset that Ray Emery is starting over Corey Crawford. But I digress. I received this question about 137 various ways. And here's my answer: Dwight hasn't told me directly.
I also don't think he has told others the specific reasons. All we can go on is the list of teams he has instructed his agent he would sign an extension with doesn't include the Bulls. And then in conversations I've had with people who know Dwight well there are educated guesses why: Wants the bright lights and marketing opportunities of New York (near New Jersey) and Los Angeles. Doesn't want to play second fiddle to Derrick Rose. Doesn't like the cold. I know, I know: New Jersey gets cold. The Lakers have Kobe Bryant and the Nets have Deron Williams. But Rose is going to be here far longer than Kobe will be playing for the Lakers. And Deron Williams is more an All-Star complimentary player as opposed to a dominant All-Star like Rose. Again, these are educated guesses. And I don't get it either. Rose likes to defer by nature. And he'd throw lob pass after lob pass to Howard. But it's not going to happen.
Why have the Bulls not shown any interest in trying to pursue Michael Redd for the veteran's minimum? He would be a low-risk, high-reward option to add a scoring punch off the bench. He seems a logical fit to play alongside Rose and could be a lethal sixth man if he can stay healthy. -- Chris, Chicago
Better question: Why hasn't any team shown any interest in pursuing Redd for the veteran's minimum? The Bulls go legitimately 10 deep and 11 deep if rookie Jimmy Butler gets spot defensive minutes in this crazy schedule. Beyond the fact that legitimate questions exist about Redd's ability to even move at an NBA level, there aren't any minutes for another player. Korver is this team's designated shooter. Rip Hamilton is pretty good in that department as well.
The Bulls are still short a big. What are some options in free agency? -- Bill Lammel, Chicago Ridge
Joel Przybilla, Erick Dampier, Theo Ratliff, Tony Battie, Joe Smith. The list isn't great. That's why I see the Bulls standing pat for now. Most all of these guys will be available if and when the need arises. I heard Przybilla might be the best option.
Can you explain the Derrick Rose rule? -- Joe C., Chicago
Translated: Rose is a rich young man. One of the wrinkles for the new collective bargaining agreement is to reward young players who have outperformed their rookie scale contracts. Rose qualifies based on his most valuable player award. The other ways a player can qualify is by being named to the All-NBA first, second or third team two times in his first five seasons or being voted in as an All-Starter twice in that time. Meeting any of these qualifications allows a player to sign a maximum contract extension to start in his fifth season. Rose's deal will be for five years and roughly $94 million.
Why did the Bulls wait so long and let Kurt Thomas get away? -- Steve Merritt; Helena, Montana
They were involved in detailed conversations with Kurt's agent throughout. They clearly wanted him back and made a competitive offer. Similar to when Brad Miller left to sign with Houston, another team offered more money and more guaranteed years. It happens.
Last year Tom Thibodeau did a great job. No one is questioning that. But do you think Thibs may take his foot off the gas toward the end of the year to give Rose and Deng especially a bit of a breather more often to conserve energy for the playoffs? Time management is going to be huge this year. -- Mikey T.; Scottsdale, Ariz.
Let's see ... Thibodeau has been in the NBA for over two decades. He has been a part of championship teams and expansion teams. He's seen it all. I'm pretty sure he knows how to manage a team. I think Thibodeau's demands got way overstated last season. Yes, he's intense. Yes, he puts in long hours. Yes, he's demanding. Yes, he holds players accountable. But it's not like he's out there with a whistle, making professional athletes run suicides, screaming at them. He knows how to balance film and classroom work with time on the practice floor. He knows this season presents unique challenges. And he has a plan to address that. He also likes to point out -- consistently -- that those Bulls championship teams featured Jordan and Pippen playing major minutes. So it's not like he's the first coach in NBA history to play his starts major minutes. I wouldn't worry about burnout this season.
Have Gar Forman or John Paxson thought about adding Michael Beasley? -- Dee, Chicago
Since chemistry is one of the first things mentioned about this team, I'm going to go with no.
Is there any chance the Bulls look at signing J.R. Smith when he returns from China? -- Kelly Hall, Chicago
In the past, the Bulls have reportedly been a bit more open-minded about adding Smith. I don't buy it.

Look to the Theater District (right next to the Union Square Shopping District) as your first step toward catching a San Francisco show. The American Conservatory Theater consistently produces ground breaking, innovative, and stylishly moving productions of classic plays, while the Actors Theater and the Curran Theater traditionally offer more contemporary productions. The Filmore theater is a landmark theater and a more intimate venue than most, while the Great American Music Hall is gorgeous step into the golden age of stage production.

And I don't buy Google. Well, Android phone, but that's because there weren't any better alternatives at the time, and I never do anything important with my phone anyway. I don't even log on any websites with my phone. It's ok to use insecure devices, as long as you recognize they're insecure and treat them as such.
That's beside the point though, because this entire conversation had nothing to do with my buying habits.

text: Hi, I bought a HDA Digital X Mystique 7.1 Gold soundcard yesterday, the sound is great, but I've got one prb. My mic (Logitech destop microphone) is terrible low with all volumes turned up and boost turned on, I have to "eat" the microphone before people can hear what I say. I've tested it with another desktop mic and it's the same. And the mic's worked proberly with my old soundcard (soundblaster live 5.1 digital) so it seems a bit wierd that they shouldn't work fine with this. Plz help me.

Lighting Tips by Kory Heinzen
Hi all,
heres a great tutorial written by a guy called Kory Heinzen, the tutorial covers how to use lights to create different moods in a picture or animation. Its written for 3D artists, but is presented without a specific application in mind, so i believe it will be very usefull for 2D artists aswell.

It was the day they murdered joy. All terrorism is cruel because it's supposed to be, but the timing of the events of 7/7 were special even by the most terrible standards. On the day before, July 6, 2005, London had been awarded the Olympic and the Paralympic Games. The happiness of that day doubled and redoubled the horror of the day of the bombs, a day on which 52 people were killed and 700 injured.
I saw one of the injured yesterday and she was lit up with joy. She is Martine Wright, and she was part of the

There's no hip-firing? Only Iron-sights to fire your weapons? Whatever I like Iron-sighting anyways. Wow, looks like I'm here first that's what I get for not sleeping...
In The Rising, there is no place to hide, there is no escape, and you will not be rescued. The only hope available for mankind will come from your determination and resilience. The time of avoidance and submission are over. The only option is to resist.
There's no hip-firing? Only Iron-sights to fire your weapons? Whatever I like Iron-sighting anyways. Wow, looks like I'm here first that's what I get for not sleeping...
I find it pretty nice keeps teamates from scared firing and forces them to AIM desently instead of wasting caps.
Still good aims model and textures.
And I think I speak for most :
Cant wait for it to come out!
Looks incredible as always, but I think the sound feels a bit weak. That's just preference though, no idea how the actual gun sounds.
As I said, visually it's incredible. Can you fire from hip or just down the sight?
You cannot fire from the hip. I think the sounds fit really well.
As someone who has fired a berretta, the sound is nearly spot on, and is a MAJOR improvement to the common "pop" sounds of most games.
yeah. most games portray either the 9mm beretta as either a mini cannon, or a paintball gun. either some immensely exaggerated blam, or just a piffle. it's pretty proper, and the minor bit that it is off, isn't of the utmost importance.
also, kudos for remembering to have multiple recoil animations, so that the gun doesn't always move to the same place and direction when you fire. too many mods forget that.
and i like the arms quite a lot! the hands look like he's been attacked and killed something with his bare hands but otherwise.
I know this may sound weird, but those are some sexy hands. :P Seriously though; great modeling. Only problem I can see is that his sleeves are really shiny.
E: The sounds are cool too.
You are right about the sleeves.
That would be a normal-map / phong error. Too high value I believe. Nice work anyhow..
Phong or spec map.
Nice :)
nice map-radar in right-upper corner :)
Thats bad that you cant fire from the hip. You know if you are overrun by monsters and they are 1 meter infront of you or you are making your last stand you will not shoot looking trough the iron sight.
At that distance, why don't you just melee attack them?
Have you ever tried firing a pistol onehanded? Without using the sights? You'd be surprised just how hard it is to hit anything, even at point blank range.
Yeah, it's difficult as is to hit targets with ironsights. Without them, you are just a fool who's going to waste a LOT of ammo. And in a time where supplies are limited, that's not a good idea.
plus you have a tendency to aim on instinct.
The only negative/constructive thing I can muster is: the sleeves are shiny. They look wet. The rest is great though.
Thats because the player wear leather jacket.
I hope weapons are really strong because looks like it'll be difficult to shoot people like this.
Actually when hip firing and ironsights are available, people shoot in ironsights 90% of the time anyway.
Well, that may be true, but I prefer moving (running, sprinting, ect) NOT looking down the sights.
This is so awesome!!! I get ******, please release it soon!!!
I haven't seen a monster in any of these videos. Strange.
What's the point of spoiling the monsters?
We might want to give ideas for them?
Wow, that is some great work, right there! I love pistols, so I think this gun might be my fav, haha. I also think that the idea of only being able to fire in iron-sights is a really cool one; it kind of reminds me of the Resident Evil games, and those are just plain awesome.
So keep up the good work; look forward to more updates and such!
really nice ambient sounds!
it feels like you are playing I am Legend :D
just awesome animations and great models... only thing i would change is, speed up the "walk animation" when the player runs. it seems like there's no real difference between the two. :)
Yay, trigger discipline! :D
No one noticed the flying error at 0:22? Look in the sky!
Anyway, very cool, I like the way the mod is coming. Maybe hip firing could be a perk?
Are you planning a second reload-animation when one round remains in the chamber?
^ Please do this.
Longest pistol reload I've ever seen, The end of the reload also has this weird thing going on with the fingers, is the character amazed every time he reloads or is he mentally unstable?
The reason for the fingers is that he was releasing the action. Do you want your fingers to get caught in there?
Also, I like the reload time. I feels like the person really is simply a survivor and not a trained policeman. I love how it feels like the person is rummaging around for the clip. The reload feels a lot like a Project Reality reload (which is a complement for me).
Also, a suggestion to ease people complaining about no hip fire: Make a system so that you don't have to click RMB to go to iron sights, you can click LMB and it automaticaly goes into iron sights and shoots. When you stop shooting with LMB it goes back out of iron sights. Just a system for quicker shots (although less accurate because you are doing it so fast).
ihmo the animation and the "only iron sight" shooting via rmb is pretty nice and shouldnt bei altered. its not that typical ego shooter style which fits pretty perfect to the whole thing. reloadtime is also nice..i like it very much
This isn't counter-strike.
Of course it is, Well at least it will be in the future am I right? You seem to adore the concept of playing a video game such as Rainbow Six, Brothers in Arms or Dead Space and then you're like oh cool mommy I want that feature in my video game modification. Talk about a lack of creativity, Overall the mod just seems like a realistic version of Left 4 Dead which is basically a Realistic POS.
Waiting for Harry to finish up the beretta = 1 Week
Spending hours with Collada to perfect the animations = 8+ hours
Watching sn1pe squirm in his chair as he desperately tries to bring down our efforts by trolling (since he clearly can't match us in skill) = priceless
man what's with this army of butthurt bad animators trolling this mod now?
troll harder
Funnily enough Sn1pe, your comments apply more to the mod you're working on than this.
These animations are extremely well done, the ironsight system seems to work well too. The more I see of this mod, the more impressed I am ;)
Longest pistol reload? Well, that pretty much proves you only saw a pistol in little arcade games like Counter-Strike and CoD with sleight of hand. Grow up and learn something please.
I like it! It looks very damn good. And I also like that it doesn't zoom in when you use iron sights, because that bothers me really much in games.
It's not coded in yet, but that is 1 of the 2 different reload styles (fast and slow). As you can see in the video, reloading slow saves the magazine (remaining rounds are saved) and reload fast (not shown here) shows him drop the mag out (animation is very fast and remaining rounds are lost).
Excellent idea. What I wonder is how you initiate either. Maybe the fast one is tapping R and the slow one is holding R for a little while?
You're getting warm.
The animations make me wanna ***, they're so damn great!!!
Just turn on AA when you record a video form now on.
Looks good otherwise.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 11/19/12
(Eds: APNewsNow. Will be updated. With AP Photos.) By BRIAN MAHONEY AP Basketball Writer This is how the New York Knicks used to play, before the franchise tumbled into mediocrity and misery. The superstar wants to be more than just a scorer. The role players are committed to being good defenders and better teammates. The old guys play the game with an old-school mentality. The coach holds everyone accountable for stopping his man, no matter who he is. Yes, these Knicks are doing everything it takes to be a contender. Coach Mike Woodson says the Knicks are ''playing for something.'' They're doing it with hard-nosed defense and unselfish play, which was once a winning formula in New York but one the Knicks got away from during their dismal decade. The Knicks are 7-1, their best start since winning their first seven games in 1993-94.

NBA 2013/2014 Prop Bets
- Updated: June 24, 2013
NBA 2013/2014 Prop Bets
The city of Miami is still celebrating the Heats' second consecutive NBA title, but it is already time to focus our attention on a few of Bovada's prop bet odds for the 2013/2014 season as listed below.
Will Manu Ginobili be a member of the San Antonio for Game 1 of the 2013-2014 Regular Season?
Yes -165
No +125
Ginobili was a non-factor for a good part of the NBA Finals until he decided to take matters into his own hands with some strong play down the stretch, but unfortunately it was in a losing effort. He proved that he can still play at a very high level, but at age 36 and dealing with a multitude of injury issues, you have to ask yourself how much does he still have in the tank.
He has not come out and said that he plans to retire, but Ginobili could be definitely leaning that way given the grueling toll that 82 regular season games along with a potential of four additional best-of-seven playoff series can take. The other thing to take into consideration is the emergence of quite a bit of young talent on this Spurs team that will be pushing for even more playing time next season. The current money line favors that Ginobili will be on the floor when San Antonio starts its defense of its 2012/2013 Western Conference title, but this prop could be a golden opportunity to go in the other direction.
Will Lebron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh be members of the Miami Heat for Game 1 of the 2013-2014 Regular Season?
Yes -300
No +200
When the current architect of this Miami team Pat Riley pulled-out all the stops to bring both James and Bosh to town to form the Big Three with Dwyane Wade a few years back, the grand scheme was to create a NBA dynasty that could win four or five titles. Three seasons into this plan, his efforts have been rewarded with two world titles. This last one took two incredible performances in a Game 7 scenario to bring home the title and while much of the credit should rightfully go to James, both Wade and Bosh filled key roles when they needed to the most.
The 2013/2014 season is the final one for all three player's current contract so you know there is bound to be some major changes beyond next year. While this might cause people to speculate that maybe something happens this offseason as far as a trade for someone like Bosh, you get the feeling that both Riley and Heat owner Micky Arison will decide to keep this trio intact for one more season while focusing their efforts on building additional depth to take some of the pressure off James for another title run.
Odds to win 2014 NBA Championship
Miami Heat 2/1
Oklahoma City Thunder 11/2
Chicago Bulls 15/2
San Antonio Spurs 17/2
Indiana Pacers 16/1
Los Angeles Clippers 18/1
New York Knicks 18/1
Houston Rockets 20/1
Memphis Grizzlies 20/1
Los Angeles Lakers 22/1
Denver Nuggets 25/1
Golden State Warriors 25/1
Boston Celtics 33/1
Dallas Mavericks 40/1
Brooklyn Nets 40/1
Atlanta Hawks 50/1
Milwaukee Bucks 75/1
Minnesota Timberwolves 75/1
Philadelphia 76ers 100/1
Portland Trailblazers 100/1
Utah Jazz 100/1
Cleveland Cavaliers 150/1
New Orleans Pelicans 150/1
Sacramento Kings 150/1
Toronto Raptors 150/1
Washington Wizards 150/1
Detroit Pistons 300/1
Phoenix Suns 300/1
Charlotte Bobcats 500/1
Orlando Magic 500/1
It is no big surprise that Miami is once again the odds-on-favorite to win it all next season, but there are still some extremely hungry teams such as Oklahoma City, Memphis and Denver in the West as well as Indiana and Chicago in the East waiting in the wings. The Heat's resolve earned them this year's title, but the gap between this team and some of the other top teams in the league is not nearly as wide as it once was.
Realistically, there are only a handful of teams that have what it takes to knock-off Miami in a seven-game series, so if you are looking for value in these odds you should confine your picks to teams like the Pacers at 16/1 and Memphis at 20/1. Both these ball clubs have the physical style of play to keep Miami in check. They also know what their shortfalls were this past season and where they need to improve to win a title of their own.

In the shadows of the night, keeping a watchful eye over the city, protecting the innocent and striking fear in the hearts of criminals he stands ready. Now if you are thinking this reminds you of a superhero you are right and Blazers' Nicolas Batum may be that hero. Batum has been given the nickname "Batman" seeing how his name sounds like the iconic hero but perhaps he really is "The Dark Knight" patrolling the street of Portland. In the video below, Batum is seen carrying on in Portland, looking like "Bruce Wayne" complete with flashy car, when someone accidently knocks coffee on his white shirt. Needing a change of shirt after shrinking it in the dryer, Batum is given a case where his other uniform is given to him and no, I am not talking about his Blazers jersey. [follow]

I am an avid sports fan (both to play and watch), but I have to let you know in advance that I am Calgary flames fan, not a Toronto fan, was born and raised a Viking girl and I am a glutton for punishment, as I am a raptor fan (have other basketball favourites too tho!)

Mosaic Method Online Training: Use Code DEREK99 to save $50 Today!
Physical fitness begins with emotional fitness.
Mosaic Method is a groundbreaking training that provides fitness instructors and enthusiasts with a thorough understanding of how the brain reacts to music, and how that affects our mind, body and emotions. Pulling from several decades of experience as professional musicians, music supervisors, DJs and yoga instructors, as well as years spent studying the latest neuroscience research in the fields of music and movement, founders Derek Beres and Philip Steir have created Mosaic Method to help better incorporate music in fitness and help people get the most out of their classes and workouts.
The Warrior's Path: Living Yoga's Ten Codes
By Derek Beres
Purchase print edition | Purchase Kindle edition
Derek Beres has yanked yoga's ethical mandates out of the museums of academia and orientalist romance to squarely look at their meaning and value in the here and now. In this well-referenced and pragmatic gem of a book, Beres holds the yamas and niyamas to the light of recent discoveries in neuroscience and biomedicine, and to the fire of our thorniest ethical dilemmas. His deft writing thrusts and parries towards a lucidity that is neither overdetermined nor abstract, empowering the earnest reader at every turn to think critically, independently, and in resistance to the same old normative crap. This is an essential volume of moral philosophy for yoga students everywhere. I'll be strongly recommending it to every training director I work with worldwide, because it proves that through the doorway of asana, a vibrant heritage of dignity through discourse still awaits us."—Matthew Remski, author of Threads of Yoga and the WAWADIA project
In The Warrior's Path, veteran author and yoga instructor Derek Beres explores these ten yogic codes by looking into what these disciplines once entailed as well as, more broadly, investigating their role in modern culture through the lens of neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and moral/developmental psychology. The creator of Flow Play, a national program at Equinox Fitness spotlighting the intersection of yoga, music and neuroscience, Beres uses his research as a springboard for looking into how our brains and bodies operate and what that means for yoga today. An inquisitive and insightful work, The Warrior's Path not only aids us in understanding the roots of yoga better, it helps the modern yogi practice the ethical and moral sentiments in this millennia-old practice while teaching us how to relate to others and deal with our own emotions, subsequently strengthening our relationship to the planet itself.
"Beres uses the Yoga Sutras' yamas & niyamas as a jumping off point for a rich and varied discussion of evolutionary psychology, neuroscience, ethics, social systems, and self-transformation…. A well written and a stimulating read. Patanjali made relevant as a way of organizing some key areas of modern inquiry! His style is neither pedantic nor tinged with religiosity, and certainly not prey to the usual idealizing of ancient otherworldly claims and the mysteries of the East. It rather has a journalistic tone that surveys current thinking from a dizzying number of research-based sources to make fresh again the contemplation of central questions that should be part of any considered life."—Julian Walker, author of Devil in the Details and Awakened Heart, Embodied Mind

They feel bad, so they found you these other deals to make up for it.
Select Local Merchants
Lake View YMCARead MoreThe caring staff at the YMCA of Rock River Valley fosters healthy habits with personalized fitness programs, family-centric recreation, and more than 50 group exercise classes at both Rockford-area locations. Equipment orientation helps new members feel at home by helping them set workout goals and meet other members with similar goals. After teaming with a certified coach to build a full-fledged fitness plan, guests may follow up with an electronic advisor that suggests changes to the plan based on input from the Y's human fitness experts. Unlimited access to group classes such as yoga and pool-based aqua Pilates challenges muscles under water. Zumba's Latin-inspired dance moves get heart rates delightfully elevated, and cardio madness continues the trend with weighted bars and free weights. The Y also sets aside time for families to connect over basketball, movie showing in the pool, or competing in an inflatable obstacle course In addition to showering members with classes and coaching, the Y bathes them in discounts when they sign up for specialized classes such as triathlon training. Complimentary childcare allows parents to focus their mental energy on physical feats, and a handful of free guest passes lets members show their friends where they climb the climbing wall.3333 N Marshfield AveChicago, IL US
Players Sports GroupRead MoreSimply put, Players Sport & Social Group helps more than 60,000 people each year get together, meet new friends, and have fun. The two-decade-old company has more than doubled in size in the last five years, due in no small part to the wide variety of sports leagues and clinics that it offers at venues throughout the city. Teams or individuals can sign up for sports ranging from dodge ball to beach volleyball to games of "bags," otherwise known as cornhole. Players can check their weekly standings online and review each sport's rules, learning exactly what is considered a foul in kickball or how to dispose of a football opponent's captured flag by burning it in a respectful ceremony. The company also hosts and sponsors social events such as happy hours, beach tournaments, and tasting events such as Whiskey Wine & Swine at Old Crow Smokehouse and The World's Largest Indoor Bar Crawl Goes Mardi Gras.1059 W Addison St.Chicago, IL US
Cities and SportsRead MoreFrom bar crawls to street festivals, there's plenty of ways to meet new people in the city. There's also plenty of ways to get exercise, such as jogging along the waterfront or scaling a skyscraper in a gorilla costume. Cities and Sports brings both worlds together through seasonal sports leagues that are as much about winning and getting exercise as they are about socializing and having fun. After the games, players can hang out with their team members and meet new people at the league sponsor bar. During warmer months, the company organizes leagues at local parks and beaches for weekly rounds of softball, kickball, and volleyball. Then, when winter rolls around, it moves its operation indoors for properly sheltered sessions of dodge ball, volleyball, bowling, and basketball.2506 N ClarkChicago, IL US
S3 Singles Social Sports LeaguesRead MoreWhen Ben Shimon first started S3 Leagues, he envisioned recreationally competitive leagues full of people with whom he wanted to be friends. Seven years later, they've run 141 leagues total and attracted 18,450 participants. S3 Simply Social Leagues hosts dozens of coed leagues year round, such as 16-inch softball, kickball, skeeball, beach volleyball, Whirlyball, and dodgeball at locations throughout the city. After matches, all teams hang out at local sponsor bars for celebratory sips or to plot their comeback in the next game. Each of the leagues meet once a week, with off-field events happening as players' social calendars dictate.2211 W Diversey Pkwy.Chicago, IL US
Des Plaines Park DistrictRead More$10 will afford you around 83-91 balls so you don?t have to use all $50 in one visit, just hold on to your card and come back whenever you feel like transferring stress into the abyss of dimpled cosmonauts. Although not part of this deal, Golf Center Des Plaines also has a lighted, par-three golf course, GolfTEC training programs, a pro shop, restaurant, and banquet room.2222 Birch StDes Plaines, IL US
Dynamic Impact Volleyball ClubRead MoreDynamic Impact Volleyball Club sends female student-athletes sprinting, attacking, and passing across courts tiled with teamwork and healthy competition. Decorated players themselves, the club's coaches are dedicated to developing the talents of their young prot?g?s both by creating a healthy, competitive environment and fostering each player's passion for the sport. Throughout the year, the nonprofit organization composes leagues for girls aged 18 and younger who can also test their skills during tournaments or while curving attacks around the windblown peanut-butter sandwiches soaring through the air at the club's beach leagues.555 W Bryn Mawr Ave.Roselle, IL US

Just look at Arizona. The Wildcats have 24 consecutive tournament appearances, the longest current streak. But their 25 percent graduation rate ranks near the bottom of this year's tourney -- and we don't think that's a coincidence.In filling out the Inverse Graduation Rate Bracket, we used the NCAA Graduation Success Rate Report released last October, which considered athletes enrolled from 1997 to 2000. In other words, Georgia, you're on the hook for Jim Harrick Sr. and Jr. (This is actually a good thing, as you'll see below.)

Posts Categorized: Technical Blog
Welcome to the first issue of Shuck & Awe: Hunting for Perl. Inspired by Blogrotate and Log Buffer, I've decided to try jump-starting a bi-weekly review of everything and anything that caught our attention in the Perl world. Okay, that's enough introduction. Let's cut down to the meat already, and see what I've collected for the last two weeks.
There you can find the list of EM 11g new features. After I quickly skimmed through it I could mention few areas…Here is the surprise you might not have expected — you now need to install Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.2 (Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Release 1 Patch Set 1) as a pre-requisite to Oracle Grid Control installation.
I'm tired reading all over the internet — Oracle taking back OpenSolaris, Open Solaris May Die?, Solaris Is Dead, Save Open Solaris, Oracle taking back OpenSolaris. I'm so sick of it! I see that some don't even know the difference between OpenSolaris and commercial Oracle Solaris (former Sun Solaris 10)! Wake up people! Oracle did make commercial Solaris 10… eh… commercial, that is.
I'm excited to share the news that Oracle ACE program has been extended to cover MySQL community now and Pythian's Sheeri Cabral has become the very first Oracle ACE Director in MySQL expertize area. It's a special privilege for me to blog about it because I had a pleasure to nominate Sheeri in the first place. Being an Oracle ACE Director myself and knowing what's involved, I believed that if Oracle ACE program is extended to MySQL, Sheeri must be the number one candidate.
Spring has sprung, the grass is riz. I wonder where them birdies is. Welcome to Blogrotate. It's Good Friday here in Ottawa, a holiday for us. For this reason it's going to be a short one this week. That and the fact that it's 25C and sunny here. :)
This is the 184th edition of Log Buffer, the weekly review of database blogs. I've edited a couple of Log Buffers before, but this is the first time I get to post directly to the Pythian blog. Just one of the many perks of being a Pythian employee ;)
Good evening and welcome to the late night edition of Blogrotate. It's been hectic around here but I did not want to skip a week so I am burning the midnight oil. There was a lot of action in the world of IT this week, here's a few tidbits we took notice of.
I had an interesting conversation with Sheeri yesterday. She had pointed out that today was Ada Lovelace Day, a day devoted to highlight and thank the many women in the Information Technology industry for their contributions. She suggested that if I wanted to blog about it she would find that appropriate, given what we've achieved here at Pythian.
Today is Ada Lovelace day, a day to "draw attention to achievements of women in technology." So here I am, drawing some attention :) All the names contain links to learn more (mostly Wikipedia links), so if you are so inclined to do so, you can learn more (you could start at Wikipedia's article on women in computing). Perhaps you will realize that there are lots of women in technology already, more than you first thought. That being said, this is by no means a comprehensive list.
Hello folks, it's great to be back from hiatus. This is the 183rd edition of Log Buffer (arguably the best edition of Log Buffer yet!), the weekly review of database blogs.

And how many fucking times does he need to tell the audience to go crazy and make some noise? There's nothing wrong with the frontman being a bit excited and getting the audience going, but he way overdoes it and looks like a retard doing it.

Tan Mei • 15 Jun 2014 • 1 Review • 0 Follower
We went there for Father's Day lunch. They only had a set menu, but the set menu looks good at first. Good thing was the free flow of fresh oysters and korobuta pate. Everything that follow after was disappointing. The wild mushroom soup had no flavor, the foie gras was prepared with soft boil egg, which I felt that was a waste of foie gras coz the soft boil egg yolk over powered the little bits of foie gras. The scallops were ok, but again it seems that there were not enough flavor. Beef flank was passable. Dessert was the biggest disappointment. Crepe Suzette is suppose to be a French specialty and yet it failed with a standard like the chef that made it had his first lesson in making crepe. On the whole, it was too much to pay at $88++ per person for sub-standard French food. I seriously have tasted much better.

Guava, Lower Sugar Levels, Cholesterol & Blood Pressure
Guava, Lower Sugar Levels, Cholesterol & Blood Pressure
Guavas, the fruit of an intimate magic in our lives, have multimanfaat for health. The fruit is very rich in vitamin C and some types of minerals that could ward off various types of degenerative diseases, and keep in shape.
leaves and bark contain antibacterial agents, which can cure some types of diseases.
One study showed that fresh fruit and fruit juice from the guava fruit has the ability to lower blood sugar levels. In the history of Chinese medicine, guava very useful to cure diabetes mellitus. Provision of one gram of guava juice per kilogram of body weight showed hypoglycemic effect (decrease in blood sugar) in normal mice and diabetic rats.
Although the hypoglycemic effect given weaker when compared with commercial drugs, such as chlorpropamide and metformin, a hypoglycemic effect given by the guava fruit juice significantly. Thus, guavas can be used to treat and prevent disease or diabetes mellitus (Chen and Yang, 1983).
Compounds that contribute to the hypoglycemic effect is soluble food fiber (soluble dietary fiber) that is found in guava fruit. One study showed that administration of 0517 g / day guava can lower fasting blood glucose in mice (Yusof and Said, 2004).
A study in India, published in the Journal of Human Hypertension (1993) showed that consumption of seed jambui 0.5 - 1 kg during the 4 weeks can reduce 5% of the patient's blood pressure and lower hipertansi 5-8% of blood cholesterol patients with hypercholesterolemia. This is because the content of potassium and fiber food high in guava.
Research singh and his friends from India that publication of the American Journal of Cardiology (1992) reported that high fiber consumption and guava for 12 weeks can lower blood pressure an average of up to 9.9%, 7.7% triglycerides, and raise HDL (good cholesterol) more than 8%.
The results from America, published in Food Chemical News (1995) show the existence of anti-cancer compounds in guava fruit.

YIELD: Makes 4 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 30 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 40 minutes
Soak noodles in cold water to cover 30 minutes, then drain. Cook noodles in a large (5- to 6-quart) pot of boiling salted water 4 minutes. Drain noodles in a colander, then rinse thoroughly and drain well.
Stir together soy sauce and water, then reserve.
Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then add eggs and stir-fry until just cooked through, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate and wipe out pan, if necessary.
Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in pan until shimmering and stir-fry shrimp and chile paste 30 seconds (shrimp will not be cooked through).
Add chorizo and garlic and stir-fry until shrimp are just cooked through, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Add soy mixture, cooked noodles, jicama, and scallions, and stir-fry until noodles are heated through and scallion greens are wilted, about 1 minute.
Remove pan from heat and stir in eggs. Serve immediately.
Cooks' Notes:
In the 30 minutes it takes to soak the noodles, all other prep work can be done, including bringing the water to a boil to cook the noodles.
The chile paste is quite strong when it hits the pan, and will likely cause you to cough, so if you have a vent fan, turn it on high.
Some people prefer their chorizo with casing removed, but in Asia, they wouldnt remove the casing on Chinese sausage, so its your choice whether you want to remove it or not.

Reviews by pamhockey25
I just finished this book and absolutely loved it. It was well written, and interesting. I've seen Marcus Samuelsson on cooking shows and always wondered about his Swedish background, so when the book came out, I thought I would find out the rest of the story. His book is honest and candid. The journey he takes from his beginnings in Ethiopia to the Red Rooster in Harlem are clearly explained. His adoption at age three to a Swedish couple who wanted a son and who were willing to also adopt his sister to keep the children together is a life-changing event. His grandmother got him started with his love for food and food preparation. His journey from her kitchen to his own kitchen in New York is fascinating. The story is well-told, honest, and fascinating. It was hard to put the book down. It is not a book filled with recipes, but rather about his evolution as a chef as he learns about flavors and develops his own signature dishes. Professionally he talks about what it's like to be one of the few black chefs, and what it takes to become a successful chef. On a personal level he talks about his families--his biological family and the family who raises him, his child, his marriage. I came away with new knowledge about him personally, and more appreciation of chefs in general. Someday I hope to visit New York and try his restaurant. Meanwhile, I will enjoy watching him on cooking shows!
Karen E. Olson's "Sacred Cows" is the entertaining story of Anne Seymour, a crime reporter in New Haven, Conn., who's working on a juicy story nobody wants her to pursue. Someone is killing Yale co-eds who just happen to work for a local escort service. Are the deaths tied into a crooked city politician who has conveniently gone on the lam, taking with him the investment funds of most of the city's elite? Anne's lawyer mother is one of the people who were taken. Who can Anne trust? She's dating the cop handling the case and attracted to a man her mother hired to solve the crime. I hated to put the book down. The mystery was interesting and the love triangle grabbed me. Supposed to be the first of a series--I can't wait for the next one!
This is the second installment in Judi McCoy's dog walker series. Ellie is the dog walker and Rudy is the yorki-poo she can communicate with. That's right, Ellie has the unusual ability to talk to dogs. Not like you and I do, because the dogs answer her. The premise of this book is that Rudy inherits money from the a homeless man living in Central Park who the pair befriended. Although this is the first book I've read in the series, Ellie obviously started a relationship that is continued here with a police officer named Sam. Sam obviously broke her heart in the first book and he tries to set things right in this installment. I'll definitely look for more in the series.
Great acting, great story. A worthwhile investment of time.
The casting of the young boy who played Oskar was fantastic. He made the movie! I didn't know anything about the movie other than the dad had died in 9/11. The way Oskar deals with the loss of his father and the quest he undertakes thinking that somehow he will keep his dad's memory alive is very real. Now that I've seen the movie, I plan to read to book.

Does anyone know if the Barefoot treeless saddles would be good for heavier riders? 150 - 190lbs?
I have a draft cross mare, who is great for our family and has no issues with the heavier riders, but her bigger size has been a nightmare for finding a proper fitting saddle.
To date, I have taken her to a highly recommended saddle fitter twice in the last year. Each time we purchased her a new saddle that fit wonderfully. The problem is her muscle built changed quite a bit several months after the first saddle purchase. The second time was the winter/summer weight flux. Nothing drastic, but enough to cause more issues with saddle fit.
I keep hearing that the right treeless saddle and correct corresponding pad will solve these saddle fit problems. Can any one chime in with some helpful info here?
