Prep football: Immokalee's J.C. Jackson leads area FACA All-District Team
Immokalee two-way standout J.C. Jackson has been named Player of the Year by the area's chapter of the Florida Athletic Coaches Association.
The FACA recently released its all-district teams for Classes 1A through 5A. A player and coach of the year were selected for each class. Jackson was 5A's top player as well as the Overall Player of the Year.
Jackson, a Florida recruit, has 772 receiving yards and 12 touchdown catches this season. The senior also has 1,286 all-purpose yards. As Immokalee's top cornerback, Jackson has two interceptions.
First Baptist linebacker Zach Williams (2A) and Community School quarterback Drew Tomaini (3A) were named players of the year in their classifications. First Baptist's Billy Sparacio was 2A's Coach of the Year, and Community School's Damon Jones was co-coach of the year with Bishop Verot's Phil Dorn in 3A.
Immokalee had six players make the all-district team, including four on defense. The Indians (9-2) play Plantation-American Heritage on Friday in the 5A regional semifinals.

SUWANEE - It wasn't her birthday, but the Gwinnett Teacher of the Year was still surprised with some birthday cake - in ice cream form.Blue Bell Creameries honored Mai Yin Tsoi on Monday by stopping by her chemistry class to give her a cooler full of ice cream, including a half-gallon of her favorite flavor, "birthday cake." "I love anything with cake," Tsoi said. "Also it's different. That's me. I don't pick vanilla; I pick something totally random." Collins Hill High School will also celebrate Valentine's Day, and Tsoi's accomplishment, today with ice cream for all. Blue Bell is donating 4,000 mini ice cream sandwiches, one for every student, teacher and staff member. Gene Reid, territory manager of the Blue Bell branch in Dacula, delivered the treats and the good news. When he presented Tsoi with her ice cream, she jokingly asked if she would have to share it with her students. "Dr. Tsoi, you're going to get diabetes if you don't share the ice cream!" quipped sophomore Lawrence Egolum. Blue Bell rewards Teacher of the Year finalists with ice cream in all of the areas it serves, from North Carolina to Texas. Tsoi was honored this year because she is one of 11 finalists for Georgia Teacher of the Year. Karin Joann Manis, a first-grade teacher at Buford Elementary, was honored with ice cream last week. The Buford City Schools Teacher of the Year is also a finalist for the state competition. Reid said the annual tradition is a way of recognizing great educators and getting their students to appreciate them more in the process. "Maybe from getting a little ice cream, they can understand that it's a great thing their teacher is doing," Reid said. After they finished their ice cream sandwiches, Tsoi sneaked in the back wearing the mask of Urkilala, a paper-eating monster that jokingly threatens students. The signature character was one of the ways Tsoi distinguished herself as an entertaining and enthusiastic teacher. The students listened to the process of picking a new flavor at Blue Bell. Every year, employees suggest potential flavors. Usually six or seven of them make the cut. Tsoi encouraged her students to write down their own flavor suggestions to give the company. Many of the results weren't too appetizing. Among them were "rice," "hamburgers" and "sweet and sour chicken." "We'll have to work on that one," Tsoi said.

The federal government Monday announced yet another delay in Obamacare's rules. It will now exempt companies employing between 50 and 100 full-time workers from complying with the mandate to offer employees affordable health insurance by another year, until 2016.
Companies that have 100 or more full-time workers, defined as employees who work more than 30 hours per week, will have to begin complying with the mandate to offer such coverage in 2015 or face financial penalties of up to $3,000 per worker.
Officials Thursday said that the delay in the Obamacare mandate will affect 50 percent of the businesses that were supposed to be complying by 2015. Those officials could not answer how many workers would be affected by the delay.

I've been on a five-year quest to bring the freshest seafood in America to Chicago. The East Coast, however, has proved a tough riddle to crack. So when my alarm sounded at 2:30 a.m., I had no problem rising. I was on my way to New York City's Hunts Point Fish Market to solve the puzzle.

text: The The Haunting Dooms of Halloween! / Liberator Mission: Freedom--or Death! wiki last edited by Darkside_of_the_Sun on 01/25/15 02:43AM View full history "The Haunting Dooms of Halloween!"Ricky, a young boy in a Superman costume, approaches a neighbor's door on Halloween. Shortly after being given a treat, a magic word is spoken, transforming Ricky into Superman. Ricky/Superman flies off to resolve an emergency. At Lois Lane's Halloween party, the obnoxious Steve Lombard purposefully causes Clark Kent to spill his drink on Lane. Ricky/Superman crashes into Lane's apartment, and makes ready to away with her. Jimmy Olsen, costumed as the Norse God of Thunder, Thor, intervenes on Lane's behalf. Suddenly, Olsen, too, is transformed, actually becoming Thor. In the confusion, Ricky/Superman flies out the window with Lane. Kent, costumed as the Green Lantern, uses his actual super-powers to fake another transformation. Pretending to have become the Green Lantern, Kent pursues Ricky/Superman and Lane. Kent's pursuit is barred by a pair of birds, transformed into monstrous avian creatures. Kent uses his powers, as Superman, to propel the birds away, while also changing into his Superman costume. By that time, though, the trail has grown cold. At the House of Mystery, the caretaker, Cain, regales a group of children with tales of the supernatural. Suddenly, Mister Mxyzptlk appears. When Cain mispronounces the imp's name, Mister Mxyzptlk corrects him. Ricky/Superman arrives with Lane.Mister Mxyzptlk uses his magic to transform all the children into real versions of whatever costume they're wearing, much to Cain's dismay. His protests fall on deaf ears, though Mister Mxyzptlk does correct him in pronouncing his name again. Superman trails Lane to the House of Mystery, by following the scent of her perfume. A voice emanating from the house informs Superman that he has until the stroke of midnight, a mere hour away, to find Lane, or she will be lost forever. Superman discovers that his x-ray vision is useless within the walls of the house of mystery. The first room he searches is filled with an amorphous, tentacled glob. The horrific creature tries to draw Superman into it's hidden maw. Superman flies through the next door, into a room tilted 90 degrees. After re-establishing his center of gravity, Superman moves on. Mister Mxyzptlk shorts out the lights, plunging the house into darkness. A glowing skeleton descends down the stairs, and attacks Superman. Superman repels his attacker, only to discover that the skeleton is really just a small boy. Mister Mxyzptlk reactivates the lights. Superman opens another door, entering into the bullpen at the Daily Planet. Lana Lang greets him, just before Perry White hands him a story for rewrite. Though wearing his Superman costume, all of his co-workers address him as "Clark".Superman settles into his daily routine at the Daily Planet, rewriting the article assigned to him by White. Olsen gives Superman the cold shoulder, for revealing his identity to the world, without telling Olsen first. At that, Superman remembers that he's looking for Lane. Superman finds Cain and Ricky at Lane's desk. Superman attacks Cain, trying to force him to reveal Lane's location. Gunmen enter the bullpen, and reveal that the walls have been repainted with Kryptonite based paint. Superman collapses, falling through a trap door. He awakens in a coffin. As he exits the coffin, Superman is attacked by a vampire. Fearing the vampire might be another mystically transformed child, Superman opts for an indirect attack. Using his heat vision on a gas lamp, Superman creates an burst of incandescence. The vampire does, indeed, revert to a child. The clock begins sounding the midnight hour. Superman follows the scent of Lane's perfume to another door, only to discover the sole occupant of the room is a skunk. Believing Lane is lost to him, Superman gives in to despair. However, when Mister Mxyzptlk reveals himself to be the instigator behind Superman's troubles, the Man of Steel bursts into laughter. Knowing the imp is merely a prankster, Superman realizes that no real harm has come to Lane. Cain purposefully mispronounces Mister Mxyzptlk's name backwards. This time, when Mister Mxyzptlk corrects Cain, he is sent back to the 5th dimension, for speaking his own name backwards.Code Name: Liberator-Liberator Mission: Freedom or Death!Commander David Marcus engages the Malaglon forces, in orbit over their world, in his starship, the Liberator. Marcus, along with his ship, are destroyed. Commander Martin Champion addresses the next class, at the Atari Academy, for Mission: Liberator. Despite heavy losses, the almost certain suicide mission still garners volunteers. The Atari Force discovered the Malaglon slaver race in a parallel dimension, opting to end their reign of terror. However, the Malaglon slave colonies proved too well defended. Every attempt by the Atari Force to damage the Malaglon's operations has ended in failure, and death. The next volunteer selected for Mission: Liberator is Bob Marcus, Commander David Marcus' brother. Marcus pilots the Liberator Star Fighter into warp space. Marcus departs too quickly for Champion, in the scout ship, Scanner One, to follow. Champion worries that Marcus is out to settle a grudge for the Malaglons' killing of his brother. Marcus engages the Malaglon forces, in orbit over one of their slave worlds. Launching remote probe fighters, Marcus gets through the first line of the Malaglon's defenses, when he destroys three scout-ships. The Malaglons launch missile from several surface missile bases.Marcus' probe fighters destroy the missile volley, then target the bases themselves, wiping them form the face of the planet. The Malaglon's manage to launch one of their saucer-craft, the kind which destroyed Marcus' brother's Liberator. Marcus, however, proves a better tactician than his brother, and destroys the Malaglon saucer-craft. Marcus continues his assault in Malaglon space, managing to liberate over two dozen Malaglon slave worlds. Marcus penetrates deep into Malaglon space, making it all the way to their home territory. Marcus is nearly destroyed when the next wave of Malaglon ships prove swifter than expected. Marcus targets the Malaglon master base, only to find that each time he fires upon it, the planet itself rotates the base out of the line of fire. The Malaglons launch too orbital missile bases. Under heavy fire, Marcus desperately tries to strike the master base, only to watch it roll out of his targeting sights each time. Marcus brackets his fire pattern on either side of the base. To avoid the first volley, the planet rotates the base directly into the second volley. With the base destroyed, Marcus claims victory over the Malaglons. With the slave populace liberated. Marcus declares Mission:Liberator accomplished.Notes:"The Haunting Dooms of Halloween!" written by Dan Mishkin, penciled by Curt Swan, inked by Tony DeZuniga, colored by Gene D'Angelo and lettered by John Costanza."Liberator Mission: Freedom or Death!" written by Gerry Conway, penciled by Ross Andru, inked by Dick Giordano, colored by Adrienne Roy and lettered by John Costanza.

By now, Jennifer Hudson is a Grammy Awards red carpet fixture, but the singer's favorite red carpet memories are from her early years at the music awards show. And there's one dress in particular that she still loves to reminisce about.
"It was a red dress that I wore to my first Grammys [in 2007]," she told PEOPLE. "It was a very body-conscious dress, and it kind of had a fishtail at the end. I don't remember the material, but I loved it so much. And that was in my bigger days and I loved it. You couldn't tell me nothin'."
RELATED PHOTOS: The most memorable Grammy Looks ever
The star's Roberto Cavalli stunner, worn before her very public slimdown with Weight Watchers, definitely put her killer curves on display, and we love that she played up the look with fun gold accessories and simple hair. We also think Hudson's a fabulous role model for loving the way you look and dressing for your shape at any size.

Want to hear a joke? THE METS OUTFIELD. HAHAAAA. But seriously, if nothing happens with Bourn, or even if something happens with Bourn (this article is being written on the morning of 2/9), the outfield has a lot of problems. It's worth it to go though all of the possible outfield candidates, no matter how far away, because the depth chart is so incredibly shallow. Juan Lagares is 23 years old (will turn 24 during Spring Training) and is on the Mets 40 – Man. He's played with the Mets since 2006 at age 17. During his time in the Mets system he is a career .280 hitter with 2,322 AB's, 28 homers, 115 doubles, 40 triples and 98 stolen bases. Last year he had 499 AB's while scoring 69 times, with 141 hits containing 29 doubles, 6 triples and 4 homers. He walked 37 times and stole 21 bases. All of this led to a .283 BA, .334 OBP and a .723 OPS. I highly doubt Lagares will break camp with the team as things stand right now. But if Kirk doesn't work out, JV1 isn't used, and den Dekker doesn't impress, I don't see the harm in giving Lagares a shot. He's on the 40 man and his stats look very similar to a lot of other triple A players we tried to push into the majors last year. He's young and if anyone gets injured could see his way to Queens by the end of the year, especially if impresses in camp. Tweet

Hypocrisy, thy name is Giant Bomb
By pbhawks45 151 Comments
I love Giant Bomb. I've followed the current crew since that other website was called videogames.com. Since the full site launched in July of 2008, GB has provided awesome commentary on video games and other crazy stuff the gang is in to. From Endurance Runs, to Quick Looks, to the Bombcast, to freaking Mailbags; any time a new video is posted here, I have to stop what I'm doing and watch the whole thing. It's been really cool watching this little site grow into one of the most influential gaming sites on the internet.
That being said, I worry for the future.
The GB crew several times has harped on companies who overcharge for DLC and content that should be on the disc. Yet, at the same time, they are going to start charging people a monthly fee for a t-shirt and the ability to access the new and improved mobile website. If that's not hypocritical, I don't know what is. I can download movies and trailers by using a Firefox plugin. I can get HD videos from Gametrailers for free. No advertisements? Once again, there's Ad Block plus. Everything they're offering I can already receive, and for the amazing price of free. What exactly am I paying for here?
How is this any different from publishers charging for game modes that are already on the disc? For GB to get on their soapbox to decry the money-grabbing methods of game companies and come right back and do the exact same thing is off-putting and disgusting.
And what about for the people like me who paid for the iPhone App? Are they just going to stop supporting the paid membership when it's not profitable anymore?
I don't get it. It seemed like the Whiskey Media group knew what it was doing. Sadly, I was wrong.

About the Book
April 14, 2012, marks the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. The "unsinkable subject," the story of the giant ship that sank on its maiden voyage, has become one of our most potent modern parables and enduring metaphors. The image of the ship's plunging stern is an icon, and expressions like "rearranging the deck chairs" and "hitting the iceberg" need no explanation.
Yet on a cold, clear April night the disaster happened to real people—stokers, millionaires, society ladies, parsons, parlourmaids—people who displayed a full range of all-too-human reactions as the events of the night unfolded. With new research, R.M.S. Titanic weaves the dramatic story of that fateful crossing with compelling portraits of the people on board—those who survived, and those who tragically lost their lives—allowing us to place ourselves on that sloping deck and ask, "What would we do?"

About a dozen Farm Bureau members will represent Shelby County at the Kentucky Farm Bureau Annual Conference today through Saturday at Louisville's Galt House Hotel.
This annual meeting is a time for fellowship and confronting the issues, said Larry Williams, Shelby County's Farm Bureau Secretary, but one of the biggest tasks of the conference is to set policy goals by which the Farm Bureau can lobby the state and federal governments.
Holiday greenery has a history that goes well beyond the Victorian Christmas tree we gather around today. Most of the holiday greenery we use to decorate dates back to the pagan holidays of the Romans and Northern Europeans, when certain plants where chosen for their symbolic powers of restoration and protection.
In celebration of the Winter Solstice, the Romans celebrated Saturnalia, during which they would decorate homes and temples, feast and revel in honor of their god Saturn.
Proper winter storage for equipment is just as important as proper winter storage for plants. If you dig your dahlias, you better bring your hoses in from the cold, too.
I have learned some of these things the hard way.
John Hammonds has had a pretty good year with his corn and soybeans – and that's an understatement.
Hammonds, who farms about 200 acres of corn, mostly on Mulberry Pike near Eminence, said that in drought-laden 2008, his crop produced about 100 bushels of corn per acre.
Real human advancement was made when we finally figured out that saving seed from the very best food plants was a way to get some really good food next year.
The pumpkins that the Wampanoag served the pilgrims were more like gourd if compared to the sugar pumpkins available today! The evolution of tastier food crops was aided by the human hand through the process of seed saving and meticulous selection based on vigor, pest resistance, drought tolerance, yield and taste.
Although the local, sustainable food movement continues to grow in awareness, several Shelby County farmers find they must travel to Louisville for successful business.
Farmers cite the higher demand for organic and naturally grown products and a subsequent higher profit as the main reasons for for selling outside of Shelby County.
"It's a rural county, and a lot of people have their own gardens and grow their own food," said Larry Brandenburg of Harmony Fields Farm.
It happened a little later then usual this year: the attack of the lady beetles.
Just this week dozens of people have asked, "What do I do about all the lady bugs trying to get in my house." Well, the short answer is seal up the house well and get out the vacuum cleaner.
Shelby County's farmers and growers say proposed rules changes by the U.S. Department of Labor for its migrant-labor program are unfair and could harm their business.
"From what I've seen, the changes would just about kill the program," said Melvin Moffett, owner of Snow Hill Nursery. "We'll be at the mercy of local help."
I can't believe it's almost 2010: another year of gardening and another year for the All- America Selections.
The AAS have an inherent good-gardening stamp of approval. The designation signals superior performance in a plant that usually includes vegetables, annuals and bedding plants. More recently they have added a cool-season award to the list so gardeners can start planting now.

Anyone who doesn't want to think of Nicole Kidman as a sexual being, read no further.
Keith Urban was spotted shopping yesterday afternoon at Trashy Lingerie in West Hollywood, picking out some sexy costumes (that's right) for his wife...
According to our Valentine's Day spy, Urban strolled in around 1 p.m., casually dressed in jeans and a black and blue plaid shirt.
"He was really nice and not shy at all," adds our sexy source. "He had the sales girl help him pick out some stuff and ended up buying three different sexy outfits for Nicole."
So what might Nic be dressing up in Sunday night?
"He got a naughty schoolgirl outfit, a matching red and black bra and panty set from the Sweetheart Lace Collection and the third was a matching set from the brand new Aphrodite line in red and black."
Who knew there was such a...lover inside the sometimes ice queen.
As for Keith's mood, we're told he was jolly as can be panty shopping, browsing around for a while and singing along to the music playing.
Wonder if Kidman approved of her man pet going out to buy her some sexy goods, or if this is one of her surprises come Sunday. Either way, let's just hope Nic can show some emotion when she unwraps those boxes this weekend!
Imagine what lingerie looks like with the Many Frozen Faces of Nicole Kidman in our gallery.

The US Navy marked "Earth Day" today with a M1.2 supersonic demonstration of a "Green" F/A-18 Super Hornet using a 50/50 mixture of JP-8 jet fuel and biofuel developed in part by Honeywell subsidiary UOP.
The flight, out of the Navy's Patuxent River location, was the first of 15 flight demonstrations and 23 flight hours through mid-June that will be used to certify the 50/50 mix. The 45-minute flight was also the first flight of a supersonic jet with afterburners using a biofuel blend, says the Navy.
Preliminary results from test show that there was no difference in engine performance metrics attributable to the fuel mix, officials say.
Once the entire flight envelope is cleared for the F/A-18's GE F414 engine, the Navy plans to expand its certification efforts to other Navy and Marine Corps aircraft and Navy tactical systems.
The UOP process converts the raw camelina oil, which in this case was produced by Seattle-based Sustainable Oils from the inedible camelina plant, into a renewable fuel through a hydro-treatment at a facility in Texas. The renewable fuel portion, which does not have the aromatics associated with petroleum derived fuels, must be mixed with JP-8 to prevent damage to certain seals and other engine components, says a UOP spokewoman.
UOP is under contract to US Defense Energy Support Center to produce for the Air Force and Navy 600,000 gallons of hydro-treated jet fuel delivered by seven vendors using a variety of feedstock, including camelina, animal fats and algae.
The Air Force in March successfully performed the first flight of an A-10 Thunderbolt II using the camelina mixture.
UOP's "Green Jet Fuel" process technology was originally developed in 2007 under a
contract from the US Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to produce renewable jet fuel for the US military.

Speaking to Kotaku, Shigeru Miyamoto apologised for the lack of Pikmin 3 info at E309, but said that the game was still in development. Originally confirmed at E308, there have been few details released regarding Pikmin 3 since, and that continues...
I'm sorry [...] Unfortunately we haven't been able to expand the team size very much, because we've been working on so many different games that we've shown off at the show. So the team is working very hard, but it's a bit of a small team. [...] Of course [...] The basic work that they've been doing quite nicely.
Kotaku asked whether or not the team was working on a full new game:
"Yeah, and my basic idea is that the sense of the depth of the game and the simplicity of the control will all be there"
I get the impression Nintendo need to hire more developers, it seems they are being spread to thin by too many projects lessening the quality of some. Mario Kart Wii is a prime example of this for me. Anyway, I hope we see something soon.

Deep roots of Cedar Hall
Protest over school's closure led EVSC to strategic shift
Beverly Kempf remembers the outrage she felt after hearing Cedar Hall Elementary School was going to close.
A grandmother of current and former Cedar Hall students, Kempf was anguished because of the century-old building's impact on the surrounding community.
<IF YOU GO>Cedar Hall Elementary School has offered many community-based education initiatives, including some that originated at the school.
- Former Principal Cathlin Gray hired the first school-based social worker in Evansville's public school system.
- Even Start, which is a partnership of the school system and the Lampion Center, offers young parents who dropped out of high school the chance to earn a GED and improve life skills while their children receive child care.
- Cedar Hall has numerous after-school and summer programs through 21st Century Learning Centers.
- The school offers its own baseball program for students.
- The St. Mary's Mobile Dental Clinic makes occasional visits to the school.</IF YOU GO>
"I thought, 'He's gonna hear from me,'" Kempf said, referring to the man who made the decision, Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp. Superintendent Vincent Bertram.
Kempf didn't have to wait long. That very day, Kempf was in the hallway at Cedar Hall. Bertram was there, too.
Kempf is certain that Bertram will never forget her, what she had to say and how she said it.
"I just told him what I thought," Kempf recalled recently. "It's a community school ... teachers care about kids here."
Bertram, who became EVSC's superintendent in summer 2007, learned quickly about the close-knit connection between Cedar Hall and surrounding neighborhoods.
It goes all the way back to the Fulton Avenue school's construction in 1892, when it opened under the name Blankenburg School.
The building became known as Emma Roach School in 1918. Its name was changed to Cedar Hall in 1953 after a heated debate that included a secret ballot among students.
An addition to Cedar Hall was constructed in 1986; a centennial celebration came in 1992.
The textbook definition of "community school," Cedar Hall requires only three buses. That's because about 75 percent of children live close enough to walk.
Cedar Hall several years ago started its own youth baseball program; it pioneered school-based social workers, and it offers an adult education program.
So for longtime residents such as Kempf, shutting the school down would have been a deplorable act.
Linda Jones, who has stayed involved at Cedar Hall even though her four children are grown, agreed.
"When they said the school was going to close, my heart caved in," she said.
After hearing numerous comments like those, Bertram reversed his decision. He decided to rebuild Cedar Hall on its same block as a gleaming new school for kindergarten through eighth grade, equipped with the newest technology.
Harwood Middle School, previously pegged as a K-8 building, now will house alternative education programs.
The project is included in the $149 million bond issue for EVSC that voters approved Nov. 4.
'Ultimately, it was about a community'
"Ultimately, it was about a community," Bertram said when telling the School Board that Cedar Hall would remain open and be rebuilt.
The Cedar Hall K-8 School is scheduled to open in fall 2010. Construction bids are due at 2 p.m. Tuesday. The School Board is to award a contract March 16.
Principal Jacqueline Kuhn said antiquated conditions in the current building present challenges, especially for disabled students.
One of those challenges involves students having to go down one staircase and then up another staircase to reach the gymnasium, she said.
Kuhn said she is enthused about the new building and also the new K-8 alignment. Cedar Hall currently is K-5.
"K-8 is the cake, and the building is the icing," she said. "The idea that we can keep our kids and families together (for three additional years) is great."
VPS Architects of Evansville designed the new building. It will have an outdoor classroom, plus a new gymnasium, auditorium, media center and academic space.
Although the building and the technology will be new, Cedar Hall's tradition of community-based education will not change, said Mike Shoulders of VPS Architects.
In fact, Shoulders said the building's design will enhance that tradition.
"We have a new community clinic built into the Cedar Hall plan that will not just be for students, but for families and adults," Shoulders said.
"Working from that model of community-based services, we designed the northern end of the building to be flexible, accessible to the community, at night, so they can block off the academic area which is further south and open the northern end to various community functions."
A multipurpose room will be on the northern side, along with the cafeteria and other facilities that Shoulders said can be shared by the school and surrounding neighborhood.
The new building will be "a lot more technologically advanced, environmentally advanced and, of course, educationally advanced," Shoulders said.
Cedar Hall is one of Evansville's poorest schools. Ninety-two percent of children qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
It's not unusual for teachers to begin their careers at higher-poverty schools but then move on when other opportunities arise.
But Michelle Reffett, a kindergarten teacher at Cedar Hall for 17 years, said she has no desire to work anywhere else.
"The families keep me here. They've made me feel like part of the community," Reffett said. "We've been given so many opportunities for professional development ... so many services are available here. So many people here care about children."
Kuhn noted Cedar Hall also is enjoying some academic improvement as it prepares for the new building's arrival.
Sixty-four percent of Cedar Hall fourth-graders passed the ISTEP language arts section in the fall, up from 45 percent the previous year.
On the math section, 68 percent of fourth-graders passed, up from 52 percent.
"We are moving in the right direction, and that's what's so exciting," Kuhn said.
Shoulders said, "The people of Cedar Hall and the community have done wonders with a facility that's been a challenge for them. They do great things sometimes on a shoestring, or rather in a facility that's not geared toward modern education."

How to Fix the Big Ten
We've all seen it. The middle-aged man telling stories of his glory days in high school when he was the kid that had it all. The girlfriend, the parties, and the entire community wanting to rub elbows with the prep-star of the town. And then it happened...he graduated, got a job, got older, got a little balder, gained a little weight and lost his feats of athletic-endeavors to scrapbooks and grainy video.
In some ways, the Big Ten is a lot like the guy still holding on to that letterman jacket, telling stories and pining for the good 'ole days that seemed to have been lost in a collection of boxes that are covered in dust and spiderwebs in the basement storage. It's nothing more than a memory, only to be conjured up when comparing rotten-apples to oranges.
It's not a secret. The Big Ten has struggled in large part since Ohio State got T-boned out in the desert via the BCS Championship game in January of 2007. That night, the Buckeyes ran into a hungrier and more prepared Florida team that gave it a super-surprise toilet-swirlie in front of millions of viewers. That alone would be hard to come back from.
But it didn't end there.
Since then, the conference has taken it on the chin more often than not. There have been some big wins sure. There was even a very good showing in the bowls in 2010. But a flash in the pan here or there does not equate to the steady and elite success of the six-straight BCS Championships of the SEC. The black eye of perception also doesn't come close to the perception enjoyed by the offenses being thrown out by the Big Twelve and Pac-12 on a weekly basis.
And then there is the well-chronicled disaster of a year so far in this season. The Big Ten has parlayed the recent run of mediocrity to an even less than an average showing in the non-conference slate--losing arguably every single game in which it has had an opportunity to make a statement.
And that's the ever-so-rough timeline of where things stands today.
So how does the Big Ten get its mojo back? How does it stop from being the punchline of many national jokes?
Easy. Well, kinda.
The single most important thing for the Big Ten to be among the upper crust of college football again, is to have its big-boys grow up to be grown-men again. That means we're looking at you Michigan. We're staring down our noses at you Ohio State. Nebraska, you'll also be on the clock as the new cool kid who hasn't quite fit in yet. But that might be more later than now as you settle in. Penn State? Well, that ship is sailing into the sunset for now.
Sure, having a solid league top to bottom might help to some extent, but it's the blue-bloods of the sport that need to dominate and be a level above everyone else. Wisconsin, Michigan State and others still need to hold their own against tough out-of-conference competition, but the colors that will paint an improved image of the league are scarlet and gray, and maize and blue. There are other colors of the Big Ten rainbow, but those need to be the ones to pop with the brightest hue. As they once did.
After all, the SEC is tough, but it has two teams that are far superior to everyone else right now. It's Alabama and LSU, then everyone else. The same needs to happen in the Midwest, and what two better teams to be entrusted with a renaissance than the two most responsible for bringing the program notoriety in the first place.
All indications point to Ohio State and Michigan getting back on the radar with top-flight recruiting classes, but both are clearly not there yet. Both simply have to produce on the field when it counts. Ohio State has a bowl ban so there won't be an opportunity to take down a big-time opponent this year no matter how many games it wins. And Michigan has already tapped out with losses to Alabama and Notre Dame this season.
Better luck next year?
There's no other way to slice it. The time is nigh for both widely-successful programs to ratchet things up in Ann Arbor and Columbus.
As they do, the national jokes, snickers, and sideways stares will stop. Until then, the reputation of the Big Ten will still be collecting dust, sitting in the corner as a memory of what once was.

Tips for rally gear (rider wear)?

Joined: Nov 2004
Location: somewhere in Ontario, Canada
Oddometer: 1,856
Hmm... this is an interesting question, this is what I wear. I have not done 5 days, and 2000km with it, but I'm confident this would do me well.
Sorry, no frontal shots as I am usually the one with the camera!
Boots - Motocross boots, or lately I have been testing the KLIM GTX boots and they are working great. They are designed as a winter boot with a gore-tex liner and thinsulate, but they breath really well. I have down 2 days rides in +30deg heat and humidity and have not been overly hot.
Knee guards, that have shin protectors in them.
Padded shorts - via SixSixOne
Pants - Klim Dakar Pants, love them zippered panels
Elbow pads - SixSixOne
Clima-dry/cool-max T-shirt under Clima-Dry/cool-max Jersey
TekVest by
- fantastic piece of armour. The new ones are made with Coolmax liners, and it can be purchased to fit a Leatt Brace (I was a demo for one)
Leatt Neck Brace
Klim Dakar Gloves
My only complaint with all the above is the knee guards from 661, when work with motocross boots they stay in place. Without the tall boots they tend to slide down.
No chaffing, no hot spots, nothing with any of the other gear.
The TekVest has a large pocket on the back panel for a camel back (3L), plus multiple pockets and adjustability.
In talking with Scott Harden about gear, you will notice all the Dakar riders are wearing jackets - the rationale is that the jackets will block the wind and some of the heat from riding in the desert, and yet still be breathable enough. I noticed that Jonah Street is wearing a modified KLIM Valdez Parka. This is a 3ply gore-tex jacket, so case in point, what one would think would be a winter piece of gear is being used for the desert.
I have a pressure suit as well, but no longer use it as I found it was crazy hot, and find the TekVest offers a level of protection I am comfortable with and more ventilation than I had, so I am happy.

32 year old man | Arlington, VA, USA | Seeking women 24-35 within 15 miles
Ask, and I'll tell ya. Dont be shy!
I'm originally from Indiana. I moved to the D.C. area in 2007. I'm not too sure about this whole Match.com thing, but figured it's worth a try. I'm a genuine guy and a straight-shooter who's looking for someone who isn't just a girlfriend, but a friend first. A good match is someone you don't have an awkward silence with, just a comfortable pause. Someone who shares your interests, a few drinks, and a few laughs. Experiences and memories are nothing if you don't have someone you care about to share them with. I'm not looking for a fling, but rather someone to share these "experiences and memories" with.

Baseball, Basketball, Football, Inline skating, Other types of exercise, Running, Skiing, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Dogs
I have a 110 lbs. Doberman. So, obviously, dog lovers are a plus. He's a lot of dog, but totally goofy and harmless.
Middle of the Road
I live near Shirlington so I typically go out around there, but will sometimes go to the Clarendon/North Arlington area. Early dinner and drinks are always good in D.C., but usually end up back in Northern Virginia.
Indiana University Bloomington, Bloomington, IN
Traveling has to be at the top of the list. I'll go anywhere at least once. Other things would include frequenting the movies, four day weekends in Indiana, summer concerts, and standing in front of the grill with a spatula and a beer.
Having an active profession spills over into the rest of my life. I love working out, ANY sports (playing/watching), and even skating at the local skatepark(old childhood hobby). I also love cooking, chess, time with friends, and visiting family.

Mama to 3 awesome girls: DD1 born 2001, DD2 born 2002, DD3 born March 2011
Hey Katroshka! Mazel tov on your pregnancy! I have a good friend who delivered at BSBC and know another woman who did as well in 2008. They had no complaints about it and had great experiences. You should go and check it out. Interview the midwives and see what you think. There's also Birth Roots in Chula Vista. I wasn't eligable to deliver at their birth center because I was having a VBAC but did use the midwives for our homebirth. I can't recommend them enough! I loooooved my midwives and their apprentices.
Did you know that there's an FB group for our DDC? Come join and tell everyone your good news! Congrats again!

I think a few years ago I would have loved to go there, but I'm not comfortable with the new management. I also heard that several of the midwives that were there most recently are now working at UCSD, hence the all new midwives there now. It's pretty disappointing, I would love to get care/ deliver somewhere a little more personal than UCSD.
Birth Roots sounds nice but is way too far for me, and I can't afford a homebirth.
I will check out the facebook page!
Mama to 3 awesome girls: DD1 born 2001, DD2 born 2002, DD3 born March 2011
As far as hospital birth centers go, UCSD is supposed to be great. Many friends of mine have delivered there and were very happy with their care and experience. I've actually been going there for GYN stuff. We paid for our homebirth out of pocket (Birth Roots are the only homebirth midwives that work on a sliding scale. We NEVER would have been able to afford it otherwise), and I have to start using my insurance now. I see Jasmine and I really like her a lot. I'm so excited for you! PS-I invited you to my clothing and gear swap :)

As far as homebirths, I used to really want to have one but my house is so crazy with our 3 dogs and 2 cats in a small space that now I feel like it wouldn't be so great for us. One of my dogs just barks and barks when she is excited and I think I would go crazy about it in labor!
I saw the invite, thanks! I don't know if I'll be able to go or not but we'll see. The only thing I would have to swap is a hand me down pack n play I've never even opened, though!

I had both of my babies at Best Start and am sad to hear about the new management. Hope they don't lose their touch over there!
Tamera--I read on the Birth Roots site that students participate in all appointments and births and 2-3 are present at a time. How did that work for you? Just curious, as I'm starting to look for care.:)

UCSD definitely has it's own problems and I've been kind of disappointed in my options here.

Hello! What to say....well, I like to travel, just got back from Vegas, did terrible at Blackjack, so I have to go back soon to get my revenge. In general I am pretty laid back, not in the party/club scene. Can't wait for the summer, friends BBQing by the river with a Budlight in my hand. I've signed up for some classes to expand my hobbies, I'll be taking both a cooking and painting class. I enjoy reading and taking weekend trips to towns outside of San Antonio.

I am cheesy, I like scary movies, something that makes me jump. The pizza at barbaros on McCollough is awesome, the drinks are unique too. I love festivals and fairs. I am not a huge fan of watching sports on TV but I like going to the games though.
I love to travel; I enjoy the Witte and the SAMA. When the weather warms up I like going to the river and spending time with friends and family.

Usher Gets Caught Checking Out Kim Kardashian's Butt at MTV VMAs
Dang, girl! Usher was caught on the 2014 MTV VMAs red carpet on Sunday, Aug, 24 in Inglewood, Calif., checking out Kim Kardashian's famous derrière.
The "Love in This Club" singer was hilariously snapped giving the look of approval to Kanye West's wife, who donned a navel-grazing deep V-neck short printed dress.
Kardashian attended the awards show with her two younger half-sisters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner and presented "Artist to Watch" nominee Sam Smith's performance of "Stay With Me."
After oogling the reality star, Usher went on to perform a vine-worthy surprise performance of "She Came To Give It To You" with Nicki Minaj, and later dropped a previously-unheard track titled "Believe Me."

Originally written on Football Nation | Last updated 4/6/13
If you combine the stats between Jacksonville Jaguars starting quarterbacks Blaine Gabbert and Chad Henne, you have one quarterback who had a decent season. Not great, but decent.The Jaguars don't want the term "decent" to describe their leader behind center and certainly do not want the "C" word when training camp opens later this summer.The word is "Controversy" for those who wanted to know.A quarterback who throws for 3,700 yards and 20 touchdowns would be a welcomed surprise in this organization. That is what former general manager Gene Smith envisioned when he hitched his career to Gabbert and made him the 10th overall pick in 2011.Now, Gabbert is in a fight for his quarterback life with journeyman Chad Henne, who I have stated in a previous article is the man who should start for this team. But I can see the possibility of Gabbert behind center when the season opens. Like it or not, Gabbert has plenty of long-ranged potential if he is given the right mentoring.While this arti...
