London Fletcher's return to Washington is not likely to come at a reduced rate. The Redskins view Fletcher as their defensive leader and will pay him that way, even if some wonder about how long he can play at a superior level. The Redskins owe Fletcher $5.5 million for the 2013 season, his cap number is $6.2 million. Mike Shanahan said that the Redskins would not ask Fletcher to restructure his deal despite the teams current lack of salary cap space, according to the Washington Post. Last year Fletcher led the team with 139 tackes and five interceptions. Fletcher also had three sacks.

Look, here's the thing...remember a few years ago when KGJ, Donkey and Larkin were essentially doing whatever they wanted? Remember how Larkin was playing with the team and the fans about his final year? Remember how dunn and Junior were the big kids in the clubhouse and not the leaders on the team when things were bad but because they were great/good players they were given a pass?
Think back...BP came to the Reds during that time and everyone was backing away from being the leader. Larkin was the "leader" by default because of his career, the time he had been with the Reds and his ability to speak Spanish which now nearly every high school graduate does.
During that time when those three guys were just happy to be together BP was brash, bold and cocky enough to tell the organization and the fans HE was ready to be the face of the franchise. was he ever asked? I don't know but I always liked the kick in the pants BP was to the rest of the team in a day and time when the team we all loved SUCKED.

NEW YORK (AP) -- The players' association will monitor the Miami Marlins following their payroll purge, saying it is too early to determine whether the salary cuts will cause any issues under baseball's labor contract. After complaints by the union that the Marlins weren't using revenue-sharing money to improve, the players' association, Major League Baseball and the Marlins reached a three-year agreement in January 2010 that the team would increase payroll annually as it prepared to move into its new ballpark in 2012. After opening last season with a 112 million payroll, the Marlins cut it to 90 million by the end of the season. With the trade of All-Star shortstop Jose Reyes and four others to Toronto on Tuesday, Miami's payroll next season projects to be around 36 million. Commissioner Bud Selig approved the deal Monday. "We understand and we're not surprised at the commissioner's decision to approve the trade," union head Michael Weiner said Tuesday. "We'll be monitoring the...

Robert Reich: What happened to John Boehner's $100 billion budget-cutting commitment? What became of Paul Ryan's big ideas? Where did all the roaring and raging on the right during the 2010 election go?
Why Obama Should Learn the Lesson of 1936, not 1996
Robert Reich: Obama shouldn't be fooled into thinking Bill Clinton was reelected in 1996 because he moved to the center. I was there. Clinton was reelected because by then the economy had come roaring back to life.

Minnesota company's lights could ease wireless congestion
Published 12/27/2010, Associated Press
Flickering ceiling lights are usually a nuisance, but in city offices in St. Cloud, they will actually be a pathway to the Internet. The lights will transmit data to specially equipped computers on desks below by flickering faster than the eye can see. Ultimately, the technique could ease wireless congestion by opening up new expressways for short-range communications.Word count: 798

Neil hit on Boyle would be great talking point for players/owners/GMs this summer. Fine line: legal and predatory and excessive force.
What exactly does he want? What is there to talk about? For players to text each other before games asking if it's alright to play physical? If your gonna make that hit illegal then hockey becomes a no contact sport. And then he says last week, "Backstrom cross-check to Peverley's face isn't even on my radar."

It was at that time that Howard Jarvis introduced a California statewide initiative (which was voted on and eventually became a State Constitutional Amendment). Its goal, among other things, was to limit the amount of property […]

I'm working with Haskell. Standard list concatenation is naive and slow. My situation is I have an algorithm that builds up a single list concatenating (order doesn't matter, so it could be either prepend or append or a combination) many times, and then returns it. The result will then be used only once. High performance is critical.
So, it's a pretty simple situation. I heard about difference lists and that it helps with this situation. But is that the best option?
The lists could grow to be large: 100,000's of entries.

James Franco has added yet another couple of lines to his epic resume. It seems the film actor, soap opera star, professor, muralist, and selfie-master is now also a New York Times contributer and defender of erratic celebrities — in this case actor Shia LeBeouf.
In an opinion piece titled "Why Actors Act Out," Franco analyzes LeBeouf's recent antics, which include alleged plagiarism, plagiarized apologies for the alleged plagiarism, a skywritten apology for the alleged plagiarism, wearing a bag over his head at a movie premiere, and wearing a bag over his head and staring at people at an art show (also possible plagiarism).
Is LeBeouf nuts? Maybe. But one thing's for sure, per Franco: The guy is artsy.
"…I know that this idea has pretentious or just plain ridiculous overtones — that his actions are intended as a piece of performance art, one in which a young man in a very public profession tries to reclaim his public persona," Franco says, before going on to list other examples of actors who fought back against the industry's control over their images. Like Marlon Brando, Juaquin Pheonix, and of course, James Franco.
"At times I have felt the need to dissociate myself from my work and public image," he writes. "In 2009, when I joined the soap opera "General Hospital" at the same time as I was working on films that would receive Oscar nominations and other critical acclaim, my decision was in part an effort to jar expectations of what a film actor does and to undermine the tacit — or not so tacit — hierarchy of entertainment."
To Franco's credit, the "General Hospital" stint was a pretty awesome way to stand up to the hierarchy of entertainment. In fact, we wouldn't be surprised if LaBeouf pops up on mid-day TV sometime soon, too. Franco would surely be flattered. As he said himself, "I think Mr. LaBeouf's project, if it is a project, is a worthy one."

The Mobius Trip .GPX files are here
These are the tracks, routes, and waypoints from our Mobius trip.
Files for M I-8 follow this post. I ALSO posted the same files at GpsXChange.com, and also at Dualsportmaps.com Search the term "Mobius" on each of those sites to find them there.
Because the trip spans multiple geographic regions, I thought it would be easier to consolidate them in one thread here. I plan on updating this thread and those sites with new files as we ride them.
Not included are any tracks or routes, mileage markers, or Sam's directional notes for the TAT, however, there ARE various waypoints that I laid down or otherwise collected along the way for the TAT sections -- Gas, food, campgrounds, bike shops, hot springs, hazards, possible alternates, etc. These waypoints will be helpful, but not nearly sufficient to route/ride the TAT. Not even close.
I have my own nomenclature, which may not be obvious, ie, (FRSD=follow road, shortest distance) otherwise routing is point-to-point. Sometimes I spec which mapset I'm using, sometimes I don't. Tracks have been thinned to 500 points each, but I have the full tracks on my HD. If someone wants the details of a specific area with all the track data points let me know and I can splice out just that piece. There are a few tricky places where a stream crossing or something is in a very specific location, but at the posted resolution it isn't quite precise enough.
If anyone has specific questions, please post them to this thread and I'll answer if I can.
The files are numbered for each Mobius section: 1=NYC-NM, 2a&2b=NM-AZ, etc. Some sections had to be split up to be below the ADV file size upload limit of 1.93MB. If you're interested in a split section, be sure to download all pieces and combine them in MapSource or BaseCamp / RoadTrip, or GoogleEarth.

Thank you, this is just a fantastic resource.
Glad they loaded up. Maybe downloads are doing better? :dunno
Have to try some later on.
I just tried...
I was able to download and open all the posted files in BaseCamp and in GoogleEarth. 9Dave, which are you having trouble with?
Thanks for taking the time to do this. :D
Thank you!
Excellent information. I'm hoping to use some of the Arkansas waypoints in April. Good luck on your next adventure. :clap
thanks for taking the time to share these.
I was able to grab them all last night.
Thanks for sharing Dr Rock.
Dr. Rock, Many thanks for the tracks... Planning my Reverse TAT run for late June-early July. Am using Google to follow my maps right now, need to go into mapsource after. I will pay close attention to your direction of travel on the white rim trail... you made good sense of it. :thumb
I have to track down the link to the TAT Course Corrections so I don't end up with too many backtracks. If anyone has the link, this would be a good place to post it.:cromag
I hope to do a RR after the trip, but I'm squeezing the trip in so might be slow coming. With any luck It will be half as good as Mobius.:D(there's only one of me!):wings

Donate Eggs to Friend?
Having had infertility issues myself, I would be extremely honored to help another woman in that way. I think if it was someone I knew, it would have to depend on who it was, but I probably would if I felt that it was a good family and that they weren't able to on their own. I don't see how I could feel any motherly attachment to a baby that I never carried or delivered. Personally, I think that parents are the ones that care for and raise a child, not necessarily the people that are biological parents. I totally understand the need for this, and I may donate in the future, once I am done having kids of my own.

500 years ago, the sadistic Romanian count, Vlad the Impaler, returns to his castle to find it over-run by Turks and his wife captured. He sells his soul to the Devil to save her life and is turned into a monstrous demon. He lays waste to the Turks but his victory is short-lived, as his wife revives just in time to see him dragged off to Hell. On a graduation Euro-trip seven friends, from the States, have booked Vlad the Impaler's isolated castle for a week to kick off their holiday. At first the kids imagine that visiting a spooky old castle might be a bit of fun, but on arrival they find the resident housekeeper, a timelessly beautiful woman named Veronica, to be rather disturbing. As members of the group start dying in unspeakable ways, it is clear that The Impaler's restless spirit is determined to escape the Devil's incarceration.

I love my medium resistance AquaJogger DeltaBells
from Miami, FL
on 6/3/2015
I can really feel the difference between the medium resistance deltabells I ordered and the light resistance bells we have at the center. As I get stronger using the medium resistance bells, I may order the heavy resistance bells soon.

Great Aqua Bells!

DeltaBells - Medium Resistance - the resistance is as advertised, not too easy or too hard. The cushioning is great on the hands. It came with a workout book which was most helpful. Thanks!
got a medium and also got the light one
from georgia
on 9/30/2014
like that u can angle them for low resistance in the water and more resistance just happen to like the color purple
Not enough!
Carol C.
from Mesa, AZ
on 6/12/2014
I have recently bought 2 sets of Delta Bells. The white round one and these. I ended up giving these to my mother...I like the other ones more, they offered more resistance.
Great help
from Fort Wayne, In.
on 4/30/2014
They have been very helpful in my exercise programs. Help with resistance in the water, which in turn gives results.
medium delta bells are good for me
from Augusta GA
on 4/23/2014
I prefer the delta bells over the water dumb bells with round ends. The flat surface offers increased resistence and the sharp end of the triangle offers less resistence. I like owning my own water weights and bringing them to class.
just what I needed
from LHC, AZ
on 2/22/2014
The aquatic joggers adds resistance to my water workout. I have used them at our aquatic center for years and now that we have a water aerobic class at our park pool I wanted the same good workout so I ordered a set to use here. Can't think of a negative thing to say.
These are a wonderful tool for rehab in the water.

While these are a bit bulky to carry to the pool, IN the pool they are great and really give your arms a work out. I love them.
Aqua Jogger Delta Bells Medium
from Sedona, AZ
on 6/12/2012
Excellent product. Workout guide very helpful. However, friend has light resistance delta bells and there's not much difference except for the price.
from California
on 5/15/2012
Very different from the regular round - shaped hand buoys but gives good hand & arm work resistance workout. However, a greater resistance may do better with a pro heavy one. Good product, tho.
Great Product!
Celeste B. J.
from Roxbury, MA
on 4/7/2012
I use this product for strengthening exercises in the pool. Excellent product. Lives up to its reputation.
Purple waterbells
Elaine T.
from Decorah, IA
on 1/26/2012
Used for water aerobics -they are not as heavy as I would like. I was somewhat disappointed. I do try to rotate to use flat side for more resistance. Will continue to use, would not recommend.
delta bells rock
Lynna L.
from Costa Mesa, CA
on 1/4/2012
We use these at the YMCA and really like them - that's why we bought some to take to the lake. Great product and liked reading the brochure showing health benefits. Also, delivered in timely fashion. Very happy
DeltaBells were Silver Bells in December
from Cudjoe Key, Florida
on 12/31/2011
I do aquacise every weekday morning. Using the aquabells is part of the routine. Light and easy to carry in basket on my bike as I go to class.Can't think of any negatives.
those were a gift for a freind and she enjoy working out with them

for a water aerobics class they are great for your arms doing the class, the only thing you need a big gym bag to carry them in
AquaJogger DeltaBells Medium Resistance
Judy S.
from Mountain Home, AR
on 7/26/2011
I use the AquaJogger DeltaBells for Water Aerobics. They work well for me because I am short, a non-swimmer, and they give me the feeling of being bouyant and yet providing me with resistance while doing exercise.

The materiel inside/outside was cheapest you can probably find. AC was old, for a 900 sqft apartment the utility bill was about $250 every month.

COVINGTON -- Some students were thinking about others this week.
As part of Woodlee's Christian Academy's annual Others Day, students wearing Others Day T-shirts and ready to work visited several Newton, Rockdale and surrounding county organizations to perform some needed tasks Wednesday morning.
"We send children out in the community to do things and they don't expect anything in return except the love they get back," said Lee Gilmon, fundraiser coordinator and parent volunteer at the school.
This year, students in kindergarten through 12th grades visited organizations like Newton County's Rainbow House homeless shelter and the Community Food Pantry, Jasper County Animal Control, Solid Rock Baptist Church in Covington and Azalea Gardens assisted living facility in Conyers.
Students spent the day organizing food and clothing, playing bingo with elderly residents, cleaning floors and yards and entertaining residents.
"It makes people's lives better," third-grader Avanne Elliott said.
Gilmon said the experience also helps the students realize how lucky they are to have things.
"My son went to Rainbow House last year, and before that, he was always 'I want, I want, I want,'" Gilmon said. "He saw people who had nothing but the clothes on their back, and now he's not like that anymore."
Even students who are not old enough to ride the buses, those in prekindergarten classes at Woodlee's, participated in the event. The pre-K and kindergarten students made gift baskets filled with candy, artwork and positive messages for cancer patients.
"It gives students a chance to be of service and to give back to the community," said Bobby Fleck, principal at the school. "We're a Christian school, so we're giving out the love God has given us and sharing that with people. Year after year, it's such a meaningful thing for students, kind of instilling the idea that the world is bigger than one person. We are a community and are connected, and the kids can give back -- even their simple little hands can make a big impact."

Today is the first day of the rest of your life!
I've got a lot to learn about expressing who I am over e-mail, but I gave it my best shot. Know that I'm not a creeper, stalker, or needy. I won't message you just because you looked at my profile. My life has been an adventure but I won't share the best stuff here. I was born on the edge of the forests in South Lake Tahoe and I love the outdoors. I live a life of passion and integrity. For me, life is about enjoying everyday with a smile and and a mouth for a whistle. The most important things in my life are my family and close friends. I mentor young people and live a very healthy lifestyle. My recent exploits have included teaching English in South Korea, opening libraries in El Salvador and starting a microfinance institution in Motoso Kenya. My days are spent cooking, training Muay Thai, and talking in fake accents. hahaha My work life is fulfilling and it makes me happy helping people buy their first homes. On weekends I spend time with friends, have barbecues, go hiking, biking, or surfing. It would be great to find someone who is active, considerate, hard working but loves to laugh. The things that are most important to me in a partner are; being able to laugh and share lots of quality time together. I want to see the sparkle in her eye when I just made her laugh and I've got her in my arms. It would be great to share my time with someone who is not only career successful but is a joy to be around. I'm not specific about race or religion because I come from a multicultural background and I've lived in many parts of the world. If I messaged you I find you attractive and interesting but don't think I already like you. It takes time to figure that out. I'm a kind person so please take a second to respond. Feel free to talk to me as if I'm any other human being. :0) Thank you,

Bread for the World Triad of North Carolina Holds Successful Conference

By Paula Well and Rev. Bob Herron
On Saturday, April 13, a dream became a reality—a North Carolina Bread for the World Conference took place at the Christ United Methodist Church in Greensboro, N.C. Thanks to the efforts of the local Bread Leadership Team of the Triad we held a successful conference that brought attention to issues of hunger in our state, our county, and around the world.
The keynote of the day was given by Dr. James Forbes, pastor emeritus of Riverside Church, in New York City. His words inspired and challenged the more than 100 attendees. During the conference, Dr. Forbes also offered a "homiletics teaching," a workshop for pastors on methods of preaching justice. LaMarco Cable, deputy director of organizing for Bread's southern hub, gave a presentation on this year's Offering of Letters and presidential petition.
During lunch, participants wrote letters to Congress and signed the presidential petition while listening to music from hunger advocate and musician Bryan McFarland. The rest of the time was spent networking with people from various parts of the state and sharing ideas about strengthening our advocacy. We were also very blessed to have a local cinema showing the brilliant documentary A Place at the Table the same time that the conference was taking place. We cannot recommend it highly enough.
We hope that other Bread Leadership Teams will be inspired by hearing about our North Carolina event. We pray that the brilliant preaching of Rev. Forbes and the leadership of LaMarco Cable will take us to new heights. We also pray that the exhilaration of learning how our small voices can be used to amplify important issues will not fade.
Recently, our team reconvened to discuss how we could capitalize on the energy of that day, and we became reinvigorated and ready to plan for our next conference. We feel the ways in which the Holy Spirit emboldens us to dream֫—to dream of a day when, instead of one in six Americans going to bed hungry at night, no one is hungry. We dream of a day when Bread for the World won't be necessary any longer because the problem of hunger has been solved.
Until that dream is realized, we will continue our work.Paula Well and Rev. Bob Herron are team members of the Bread for the World Triad of N.C.

Seeing Through Jesus' Eyes: An Advocate's Journey
After seeing the documentary A Place at the Table, Lori Abshire participated in a SNAP challenge and her church's Offering of Letters. Photo: Participants at the National Hunger-Free Communities Summit watch a preview of A Place at the Table. (Amanda Lucidon for Bread for the World)
By Lori Abshire
This winter I took a poverty class at my church, King Avenue United Methodist. The class, led by Pastor John, was amazing and touched my heart in many ways, but I was overwhelmed by what I learned. What could I do to make a difference when faced with such an enormous problem? The class culminated in a trip to see the documentary A Place at the Table, which highlights the hunger epidemic in the United States.
The documentary shook me to my core. I couldn't get the image of Rosie, a 12-year-old Colorado girl, out of my head. " I struggle a lot," Rosie said in the documentary. "Most of the time it is because my stomach is really hurting and I zone out. I'm just looking at the teacher and all I am thinking about is food." I had to do something so I decided for the first time I would be one of "those people" on Facebook—I was going to make people aware of the facts about food insecurity and food stamps, or SNAP.
This is a personal issue for me. My family had to be on food stamps when I was growing up. My mom worked hard—there wasn't a lazy bone in her body—but we couldn't make it sometimes without food stamps. I am thankful that safety net was there for us. Growing up, I thought anyone with a full refrigerator was wealthy. I will never forget the first time, as an adult, that my refrigerator was full. I had learned by then that it didn't make you wealthy, but I was grateful.
A couple weeks ago, Pastor John spoke about seeing things through Jesus' eyes. I tried to see this issue that way. I made a commitment to stick to a SNAP food budget for a week, starting Monday, March 25. Can you guess the food stamp allotment for an adult for seven days? It's about $31 per adult, per week—or $4.45 a day.
I went to Wal-Mart to get the cheapest prices. I tried to make the best choices possible. Produce was so expensive, but I was lucky to be able to buy a banana for each day, an apple, and two oranges. I couldn't believe the apple I bought was 83 cents!
The only meat I was able to purchase was two cans of tuna. My protein sources were milk, yogurt, peanut butter, black beans, and that tuna.
I can certainly see why someone would buy a bag of chips for $1.50 instead of the carrots I bought. Chips have 800 plus calories and my carrots had maybe 200 total. I can see why people make the choices they make.
I did this to help educate our children and my friends and family. I found that I was OK with being one of those people on Facebook. I opened up a lot of dialogue. I hope I opened some people's eyes. Hopefully, they started to see things through Jesus' eyes.
We live in the world's wealthiest nation, yet more than 50 million Americans struggle to put food on the table. My church has conducted an Offering of Letters, asking our president and members of Congress to enact a plan to end hunger. I hope you'll join us.

Food Bloggers Fight Hunger
How does one reconcile being a "foodie" with working to fighting hunger? The two things might seem to be at odds, but a lot of people who dedicate their time to cooking and enjoying the best possible meals are also passionate about fighting to ensure that everyone has access to beautiful, fresh, amazing food. Whether it's chef Tom Colicchio trying to makeover public school lunches or New York Times food writer Mark Bittman writing about SNAP, people who love food, and make their living cooking and writing about food, can be powerful anti-hunger advocates. That idea is at the heart of Food Bloggers Against Hunger.
Today, 200 food writers from around the blog-o-sphere are donating their posts to raise awareness about the documentary A Place at the Table and issues of hunger. And, most importantly, they are asking their readers to send letters to Congress to protect SNAP funding and make anti-hunger legislation a priority.
Many of the bloggers shared their tips for cooking healthy on the cheap, some chose to highlight facts about hunger in America and their thoughts on A Place at the Table. But a few of the bloggers also offered moving personal accounts of their own experiences with hunger and poverty.
Kate in Kitchen, who shares delicious recipes through her blog, bravely shares her past experience with hunger:
I have never, ever taken one bite of food for granted. I've never shunned a meal due to any reason because I can't forget what it was like to not have enough. To lay hungry in the night. To walk past trash cans spilling over with half eaten foods, to see food thrown out, to hear people say "I'm STARVING!" as if they had any idea what that's like, and me trying to focus the meager tips I made on purchasing something decent for my boy and I to eat when the bank account was bare.For a list of participating blogs, visit the Food Bloggers Against Hunger website, or find the posts on Twitter, by searching the #takeyourplace hashtag.

Barbie Izquierdo Fights Hunger
Barbie Izquierdo at the National Hunger Free Communities Summit. (Amanda Lucidon)
While in the middle of one of the scariest, most stressful days of her life, Barbie Izquierdo took her first step toward becoming an advocate.
The Philadelphia mother and her two children had been living in an unheated apartment, and the cold temperatures were exacerbating her infant son's chronic eye problems. After months of doctors' visits, Barbie was told her baby, then three months old, would need surgery to correct the problem, or risk losing his sight.
Each time Barbie took her son to the hospital for his eyes, she was encouraged to participate in a survey and answer questions about her life and living conditions—a woman from Drexel University asked whether she had heat in her house, a working stove, enough to eat. Barbie usually found the questions intrusive, but on the day she found out her baby needed surgery, she decided to open up.
"I was just so frustrated, so sad and overcome with the information the doctor gave me," Barbie said, recounting her story during the Hunger Free Communities Summit in Washington, D.C., last month. "That day, I decided to answer her questions, and instead of just telling her that I didn't have any gas in the home, I told her my whole life story."
That researcher kept in touch with Barbie and eventually connected her with Dr. Mariana Chilton of the Drexel University Public School of Health, who asked Barbie to take photos documenting her life. "She explained to me she had done work with trying to fight hunger and people just weren't understanding her because she didn't have the story—but, she knew that I did."

Americans Underestimate Our Hunger Problem
By Sarah Godfrey
Americans underestimate the problem of hunger in the United States—even at a time when so many in this country are experiencing it firsthand.
According to a recent public opinion poll from Participant Media, the company behind the documentary A Place at the Table, roughly 61 percent of Americans have, at some point, received assistance from the government or from a food bank or soup kitchen to help feed themselves, and more than 7 in 10 Americans know someone who has struggled to put food on the table. And while 4 out of 5 survey respondents said that they thought food insecurity is a problem in America, the majority of them were unaware of the scope of the problem.
"Most Americans are surprised to hear that there are 50 million suffering from food insecurity in America," according to "Food Insecurity in America: U.S. Public Opinion About Solving Hunger and Obesity." On average, those polled thought the number to be around 19 million.
In a Takepart.com piece about the poll that ran last week, writer Allan MacDonnell wrote that the most outstanding finding that this data brings to light is that "[w]e haven't summoned the will to feed the people who live here."
Americans definitely want to work to address hunger, though. The report found that more than 90 percent of Americans have previously made a food donation, either physical or monetary, to help those in need, but less than a quarter of those polled said they'd be willing to call their congressional representative to advocate for policies to end hunger in America—even though the vast majority of food for the hungry comes from federal programs. Considering ongoing federal budget negotiations that place key anti-hunger and anti-poverty programs at risk, that attitude toward advocacy must change—and fast.

Write your members of Congress and urge them to ensure a place at the table for all people by providing adequate funding for programs that address hunger and help lift people out of poverty. Then take to social media and tell your friends and family to follow your lead!

Another Hunger Games Movie, Another Opportunity to Engage Young People
If you follows movie news, you've probably noticed that publicity for Catching Fire, the sequel to the 2012 film The Hunger Games, has begun in full force. Fans are chatting about the casting choices and movie posters and trading bits of gossip about the film, scheduled to be released later this year. If you know a young person who is excited about Catching Fire, you have an opening to talk to them about issues of hunger and poverty.
Around the time of the last film's release, Oxfam and Imagine Better launched the "Hunger is NOT a Game" campaign as a way to educate Hunger Games fans about international food justice and spur them to action. Whether there will be another large-scale social action campaign around Catching Fire remains to be seen, but the movie (and the book) offer an opportunity to introduce adolescents and teens to anti-hunger efforts. The books and the movies in the series all center around a young woman who leads an uprising against a system that has kept her people impoverished and starving for generations. The works fall under the umbrella of science fiction and fantasy, so there are special effects and outlandish costumes, and, yes, some violence, but the core message is about fighting injustice and challenging the status quo.
The trilogy's key messages are especially timely now, as people suffering from hunger and poverty are particularly vulnerable, thanks to the sequester and ongoing budget negotiations in Congress.
Catching Fire isn't out until later this year, but it's not too early to start a conversation about its themes. Consider reading the books yourself, or watching the first movie, and talking to an adolescent or teen about the poverty and hunger described in the trilogy (there are a ton of discussion guides about the books available online, most of which include questions about class, poverty, and hunger). For teens and older adolescents, consider showing them the documentary A Place at the Table as a way to explain that hunger isn't something faced by fictional young people in a faraway land, but a very real problem that may be affecting some of their friends and classmates. Consult Bread for the World's companion discussion guide "No Place at the Table" for help. If a kid is impressed by the efforts of The Hunger Games' protagonist, Katniss Everdeen, to take on the Capitol and fight for a world in which everyone has enough to eat, he or she should be excited by the real-life equivalent: help a young person write a letter to Congress to ask for adequate funding for programs that address hunger and help lift people out of poverty.

VIDEO: "A Place at the Table" Directors on "The Daily Show"
Jon Stewart isn't a man who is easily shocked, but on last night's episode of The Daily Show, the host seemed stunned to learn that 17 million children in American go to bed hungry each night.
Stewart talked about hunger with guests Lori Silverbush and Kristi Jacobson, the directors of A Place at the Table, which opens on March 1. Silverbush and Jacobson talked about their documentary, dispelled common myths surrounding food assistance in America, and spread the word that hunger in this country can be eradicated.
"This is really solveable," said Silverbush. "This is one of those issues of our time that we can fix, we know how."
The directors also urged the public to get involved in the fight to end hunger, and to engage their members of Congress through the film's social action campaign, which is cosponsored by Bread for the World.
"We've been talking to legislators about this for two years and they're saying 'Our phones aren't ringing, we're not getting texts, we're not tweets on this, once we do, we're gonna start to change how we vote,'" said Silverbush.
Check out the interview above.

Preparing for the 2013 Offering of Letters
Bread for the World's 2013 Offering of Letters, "A Place at the Table," will be launched on March 1. This year's campaign shares a name with the major documentary A Place at the Table, which can be seen in theaters, on iTunes, and On Demand nationwide beginning on March 1.
The Offering of Letters kits will be ready for mailing mid-February. If you conducted an Offering in your church last year and reported the number of letters to us by using the report form, you will automatically receive a free kit. If not, order yours today. The kit will also be available online beginning March 1, along with the full website for this year's campaign.
This year's Offering of Letters will look very similar to last year's, as we continue to ask Congress to make sure that budget negotiations include explicit protections for programs that help end hunger. This year, our campaign will include two parts:
- Petitioning the President: We will collectively ask the President to enact a national plan to end hunger.
- Writing Congress: Our letters will push for legislation to protect key programs, including SNAP, WIC, poverty-focused development assistance, and the EITC and CTC; and also raise revenue to support anti-hunger programs.
In the meantime, if your church or group has already planned an Offering of Letters for this month, continue to use the sample letter and campaign information on the 2012 Offering of Letters website, which is still active.
Over the next couple of months continue to follow this blog feed for updates, information, and tools that will help you engage in successful advocacy to end hunger in 2013. And be sure to register for this month's grassroots conference call and webinar. If you have questions and would like additional assistance in planning your Offering of Letters, contact your regional organizer.
And check out this short video introducing the 2013 Offering of Letters:

This dude is seriously bouncing around the league...hope he gets his **** together and starts playing well...I don't think he has other prospects.
Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 12/25/12
The Cavaliers claimed guard Shaun Livingston on waivers from Washington. To make room on their roster, the Cavs waived guard Donald Sloan, who appeared in 20 games for Cleveland this season. Livingston made four starts for the Wizards this season. He was waived on Sunday by Washington and the Cavs had until 5 p.m. Tuesday to claim him. He averaged 3.7 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 17 games. The 6-footer has appeared in 341 career NBA games. Sloan has appeared in 53 games - 11 starts - for Cleveland, which signed him from the Development League in March. The Cavs play at Washington on Wednesday night. They'll be without center Anderson Varejao, the league's top rebounder, who will miss his fourth straight game with a bruised right knee.

Guys and gals, I have to be completely honest with you. I think we would be better off if we thought of them as a rival. I always fear the Penn State game because they always get up for it and I feel like we never do. Look at the history of the game from the time Tressel took over. I would not say we were rivals in the 90's, but Tress took over in 2001. We went 7-3 over the course of his tenure, and yet, almost all 7 wins were closer than they should have been, and the 3 we lost, we probably should have won. We won pretty handily in 07, which I got to see in person...but we lost in 05 and it cost us a top 3 finish at the end of the season which Penn State ended up getting. Even when we won 21-6, the game was within striking distance for them the whole time until Malcolm took it all the way back. In 02, we beat them by 1 and they finished under .500. I understand every game Tress coached seemed way closer than it should have, but my point is, if we put the same amount of emphasis on Penn State as they put on us, we would win more and win more handily. I'm not putting them in the category of the state up north, but I've got to be honest about the situation. It hasn't been until the last few years we've finally given Wisconsin the respect they deserve, and if we gave Penn State the same respect, we'd probably play better against them than we do.

- SPORTS MOMENT: 4th and 1 from the 37 at Purdue. Craig Krenzel scrambles left, throws the ball to the end zone, and hits Michael Jenkins in stride. Without that play, we never win the title.

Canada's not all bad. They did give us Neil Peart.
I agree. I never thought after watching Shannon Scott the last two years that I would believe we're a better team with him on the floor. After this last month, it is clear to me that we are. I've said all year to my friends that I can't believe Thad recruited Shannon Scott over Trey Burke, especially after watching Burke put up 20 points a game and us having nobody other than DT that can score. After these last few weeks, I'll take Shannon's defensive abilities. He's not better than Trey Burke, but he's not as selfish, and we have a better team than Michigan even if we have less scoring.
Pepe Pearson might be my favorite running back in Ohio State history. Also, does anyone else besides me remember Mark May picking the Hurricanes by 4 touchdowns in the National Championship Game? Even Trev Alberts was smart enough to say it would be close. I was so mad at the fact that ESPN didn't put that group back on tv to analyze the game after it was over. I really wanted to see Mark May's face after we won. That was the only time in my life I can remember being upset that he wasn't on tv. Normally I'm pissed because he is.
I agree. If Shazier, Roby, and Christian Bryant don't have what it takes to be leaders, they need to learn it fast or our defense is doomed. UFM found a way to push all the right buttons last year in the spring to get what he could get out of his team. I hope it works the same way this year.
Yes! Those are good memories.
