I'm completely smitten with this sock owl mobile from Craft Schmaft. The little owls couldn't be cuter and I love that she chose to hang them from sanded twigs. Check out Craft Schmaft and read about how these little guys came about over the past few weeks.

Thank you so much for the link, I'm glad you liked them. Lots of fun to make.Ashley says:
Claire, Will you make and sell one of the owl mobiles, I dont see me making it myself and i just love it, would be so perfect for my nursery!Kathy Stallings says:
Recently my daughter(20 yrs.old) made a video in memory of a friend that died a yr. ago who loved owls. She was looking for ideas of owls and came across your precious owl mobile and fell in love with them. She had me make some similar, but of course not as adorable as yours. She posted her video on http://www.youtube.com green on vinyl's channel, the video is entitled Animal, I thought you would enjoy watching it and seeing what she did with your creation.Raphael says:
Very nice post. I absolutely appreciate this website. Keep it up!

D36 Enduro & Time keeping Thread
Hello inmates, I have been riding/racing motorcycles (MX) for 36 years.
This year i am going to race my first ever Enduro, i would like to race the series. However, since i never race a Enduro event i am a TOTAL NOOB
to time keeping. I have been reading alot, but i don't want to have to shell out $$$$ for expensive enduro computers since i don't know how they work. My XR650L has a odometer, speedometer and i will get a watch for the crossbar pad. I don't have alot of room on the bars, but will try to get
a roll chart on there.
Does anyone still do the Ol'school way of time keeping? Do I roll my chart at every check point? do I reset my odometer at every check point?
I am open to any help or criticisim:huh
Also, anyone here plan on Racing a D36 Enduro?
i will post in here my progress
Thanks in advance
so I am gonna race a Famliy Enduro as my 1st event. tthis way i could learn about time keeping.
Just curious what time keeping equipment is good for a first timer NOOB?
please help a inmate.... I know we have well seasoned Enduro racers here.
my handle bars don't have much room.
Does anyone (enduro racers) not use the crossbar pad to accomidate their
time keeping equipment?
I have no useful information for you.. But...
I am Enduro Curious (greetings from the Fairfield side of 707), and have been considering riding one myself (I'm 42 and have been riding for about 4 years) with my kids. I ride a KLX250s.
Which one are you riding? We're (most likely) going to observe the Prairie City GP (which is a Hare Scramble, so not EXACTLY the same) on 1/18 to get a a feel for the scene
Please let us know how it goes, I'm envious ;)
All you truly need is a watch and an odometer. I've never actually seen anyone use a roll chart in a timekeeper enduro, but I guess if you put in the work to make the route sheet, you could use one.
For your first race, just go out there and do it. Contact the hosting club and see if they can put you on a line with a veteran. Try to keep up with them. Stop when they stop. Go when they go. Let them lead you through the race while trying to learn. Talk about strategy. Have fun and finish the race.
Good luck
^^Total NOOB.. Mar 1 is a family enduro. Only 60 miles. I think it gonna be at
Cow mtn. I am gonna race it. I am 40 years old and was thinking racing the
40+ group.
I used a watch and roll chart only.
It is really easy.
Google 'flyin ryan', he is a member here that also has a webpage that does a fantastic job of explaining time keepers.
So after you read Ryan's page, you can decide if I am full of it....
I would set my watch so that it read 12:00 on my minute (let's say keytime is 9a and my number is 10b, my watch would read 12:00 at 9:10a, the time I start.) I take off on my number and watch the time and the corner numbers. I want to be at the corners on time, never early, late is going to happen.
If you are in shape and all that, you should be able to stay close to on your minute. Then you will want to understand where possible checks are and all that. From what I hear, that is where most noobs get horribly confused.
Right now, all you have to remember is that the time on your watch needs to be close to the times on your rollchart when you hit those turn numbers in the woods. It is really that easy. Until you have done your 1st enduro, everything else complicates things.
You will typically find that a family event has a slower pace and more challenging sections are bypassed. It will still be a hella fun time and I would recommend one to anyone thinking about it. Do not finish up a family enduro and think, "Hah, I got this in the bag." You may be in for a bit of an awakening.
Many others have started threads on their seasons including 1st timers. andrewgore has been keeping up a very informative thread while running the Illinois area hare scrambles series. Search around for the others. You will find a common theme for beginners: get a camelback, eat well the days before and make sure that you hydrate before, during and after.
Supercross is on and I am in the mood to talk racing.......
at your 1st event show up way early. Try and meet and few people and maybe find someone that has done a few enduros. Ask if you can ride their minute. My experience has been that enduro guys are not as guarded as MX guys and will help a new guy out.
You should find a decidedly different atmosphere in the pits and that generally carries through to the racing. If someone is behind you, let them pass, you are not racing them, you are racing the clock.
I have not raced in a couple of years now and it is one of the things that I truly miss. I miss my race family, the riding and the competition.
WoW..Thanks for the helpful tip INMATES, really is great info.
I am D36 and AMA member, I have lots of northern California tight trails experience even with the XR650L, It has non-DOT Knobbies:evil,4.0 gal tank,
a working HORN:rofl,mirror will be removed
It has the Stock o.e.m odometer that is resetable.
I have NEVER raced a enduro, so there will be Learning
1)? do i reset the odometer at every Check? or when do i reset the odo.
2)? Key time, lets say key time is 0900, my minute is 32- do i set my watch to 0932 or 0900 when i leave on my minute?:ear.
Again THANK YOU fellow INMATES and enduro RIDERS
A quick search came up with a couple of links:
My .02
1) Family enduro first is sound advice.
2) If possible camp out the night before the enduro.
3) Enduro folks are really helpful. Just about anyone will give you advice if you ask.
4)You will need to display your race number(usually your "minute"+a/b/c or d) on the front of your bike. Entry level solution use white duct tape and black electrical tape
5) As always be prepared. Whenever possible have all your chores completed the day before:
*Registration, sticker on helmet.
*Tech/sound inspection
*Camelbak loaded with water, snack/sandwich, tool kit, etc.
*Watch set to key time.
*Bike fully prepped and fueled up.
*Fuel can delivered to the fuel transfer truck.
Your riding will improve and you will have a ton of fun!
Meet some of your fellow racers, ideally the night before, they will answer your questions and give advice.
If your minute is 32, you want your watch to read 9a at 9:32, so you want it 32 minutes slow. I based my keytime at noon because route sheets would have the time marked as hours and minutes, not time. This will make perfect sense when you are looking at a route sheet, but can be confusing without it.
A lot of what confuses people about an enduro is over-thinking it before they even get to the start. They get over-whelmed and never start.
Thanks Phil & Barnyard,
I am reading links, learning and NOT OVERTHINKING.
YEP , My first will be a FAMLIY enduro.
Barnyard-- I get it now with the 12:00 key time, makes sense to Me.
I am gonna get a roll chart holder and a Large digital clock.
I have my race #.
am I gonna need a scorecard holder for the front fender?
Barnyard how many Enduros you raced? I checked ryans page..more good info.
I did 3 full seasons and part of another. I am a member of 2 clubs that each run an enduro and have been part of discussions on how to attract riders. I am not an expert by any means, but I 'get' how to do an enduro. Riders that say you HAVE to have an enduro computer to run a timekeeper, have never run a timekeeper. I also think that talking odometer to someone that has never run an enduro is making things too complicated for a noob. Keep it simple and you will have a shit ton of fun.
When we set up our enduros, we always spent a bunch of time talking about making it challenging enough that A guys did not all zero out, yet not so tough that all the C guys houred out or quit. Many times, that means adding an A/B loop, sometimes it just means that there has to be a legit tie-breaker check because the A guys are all going to do well.

231. Constructing Threat in Russian Foreign Policy: Ethnicity, Apocalypse, and Baltic WarriorsJul 07, 2011
March 2001- John Ikenberry's important new book, After Victory, contends that victorious states seek stable alliances and cooperative relations after major wars. Rather than using military victory to assert further dominance, the urge for stability should trump triumphalism. more
295. European Integration and Ethnic Reconciliation in Croatia and SerbiaJul 07, 2011
December 2003 - Barely one week before the European Union's biggest enlargement ever on May 1, 2004, the European Commission gave Croatia the green light to open formal accession negotiations for EU membership. Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sanader toasted the news with champagne in Zagreb, declaring: "Today we turn a new page in history." The Commission's decision is a remarkable turnaround for a country that was mired in violent conflict a decade ago and diplomatically isolated for most of the 1990s. It is significant as well that Sanader, elected in December 2003 when the Croatian Democratic Union (CDU) resumed power, celebrates this historic moment. The nationalist policies of his party's founder, Franjo Tudman, thwarted Croatia's European aspirations throughout the 1990s. CDU leaders and their supporters continued in recent years to undermine the previous regime's commitment to meeting EU conditions, namely turning over indicted war criminals to the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY). The election of the CDU in December 2003 thus provided an important test for whether changes brought about by the EU's accession process are enduring. By fulfilling his pledge to make a clear and determined effort to enter the EU, even at the expense of marginalizing nationalist factions, Sanader appears to have turned a new page. more

Even though Jews and Poles no longer live together in Poland, the simple phrase "Poles and Jews" evokes powerful emotions. Jews have bitter memories of friction and conflict, of being despised and threatened by Poles. Distrust of and dislike of Poles is handed down within the culture; most Jews today have had no personal experience of living among Poles.

February 1997 - The Yugoslav crisis demonstrates the importance of concerted international action to prevent or resolve conflicts before they turn violent. The community of democratic states, working through multilateral institutions, might prevent the outbreak of similar crises elsewhere by adopting a strategy of "preventive engagement" to promote the democratic development of new governments. Elements of such a strategy are already in place in Macedonia, where international actors are attempting to resolve the tensions between the Albanian and Macedonian ethnic communities. more
230. Ethnicity in Exile: Coping with the Yugoslavs in World War IIJul 07, 2011
March 2001- The Nazi invasion of Yugoslavia in April 1941, resulted in the replacement of a unified state by a puppet regime in Serbia and an ideologically-fascist Independent State of Croatia under the Ustasa regime. This regime claimed for Croatia most of the ethnically mixed Bosnia-Herzegovina as well as the Serb-dominated eastern Slavonia and Krajina. To cleanse those areas of ethnic Serbs, the Ustasa committed atrocities, the brutality of which was most potently symbolized by the death camp at Jasenovac, later to also become symbol for Yugoslavia's 1990s disintegration. Until recently, however, most historical inquiry into World War II Yugoslavia has focused on the civil war between Tito's communist Partisans and Draza Mihailovic's Serb-dominated Cetniks. The royal government-in-exile, based in London, appointed Mihailovic war minister in January 1942, and considered the Cetniks its representative in Yugoslavia. A historical issue that has not been sufficiently examined is the British relationship with the government-in exile during the war and how that relationship prompted the British to lead the Allies into switching support from Mihailovic to Tito. more
290. Ethnic Cleansing, Communism and Environmental Devastation in Post-War CzechoslovakiaJul 07, 2011
January 2004 - In the aftermath of World War II, Czechoslovakia expelled close to three million ethnic Germans into occupied Austria and Germany. These so-called Sudeten Germans had long lived in borderland regions ringing the provinces of Bohemia and Moravia, with the heaviest concentration inhabiting the industrially advanced north and west of Bohemia. During and after the expulsions, over two million Czechs settled in the formerly German areas, taking over houses, businesses and factories. The popular Communist Party controlled the resettlement process from the beginning in 1945, using its influence to create a web of patronage in the borderlands. This helped the Party win over 50 percent of the vote in north Bohemia in free elections in May of 1946. Even before Stalinism took hold in Czechoslovakia in 1948, north Bohemia's coal mining, power production and chemical industry were renowned. With the onset of a Communist policy of heavy industrialization, north Bohemia's industry became a model for the entire country. By the 1960s, north Bohemia also became known for its almost unrivaled pollution, with air and water so foul that trees died in waves and children decamped to the mountains for doses of clean air. more
35. Jews and Hungarians: A View after the TransitionJul 07, 2011
The history of the Jews and anti-Semitism in Hungary has been a source of puzzlement for scholars of East European history. The reason for this is a feature of Hungarian history rarely found elsewhere in the region: an unusually large oscillation in the attitudes of the Hungarian political community between the extremes of resolute philosemitism on the one hand and obsessive anti-Semitism on the other. This paper examines why it is only now, at the end of the twentieth century, that the Jews have become free to "erect a parliamentary springboard" from which they can conspire to assimilate Hungarians in this breathtakingly paranoid vision? more
329. Migrating Icons: Politics and Serbian Cultural Heritage in Bosnia and Herzegovina before and after 1992Jul 07, 2011
November 2006 - Despite all the efforts to preserve the multi-cultural character of the four major cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina—Sarajevo, Tuzla, Mostar and Livno—the war has changed each city's ethnic composition, probably forever. One of the major demographic trends is that most Serbs have moved out of these cities. The question I pose is: should they take their material culture with them? I will present a brief history of icon collecting in Serbian churches in Bosnia—how the collections were formed and how these icons are related to Serbian national identity, history and current ideology. By understanding some of the historical issues important to the formation of these collections, we can better understand the role these icons played in the formation of Serbian identity in these territories. more
56. Comparing Clans in Hungary and RussiaJul 07, 2011
Relying on the metaphors of plan and clan, this essay endeavors to show the similarities and differences in Hungarian and Russian paths and will evaluate the starting points, factors, processes and outcomes of post-communist transformation in Hungary and Russia. Focusing on clientelistic privatization and corruption networks, as well as on forces countervailing clandestine relationships, the author argues that whereas "clans for market" proved to be an accurate description of Hungary's development, this interpretation is hardly applicable to Russia. The Russian-style clans endangered market building and prepared the reemergence of "clans for plan." The following discussion will address what these opposite trajectories may mean for Hungary and Russia, as well as for the world at large. more
226. The Plight of the Roma in Eastern Europe: Free At Last?Jul 07, 2011
January 2001- Roma arrived in Europe around the 13th century, after migrating from Northern India through Persia to Armenia and into Europe. They then spent three centuries - beginning around the 15th century and ending with the establishment of the modern Romanian state in 1864 - enslaved in what is now modern Romania and Moldova. The end of slavery led to the significant migration of the Roma from the Romanian/Moldovan states deeper into the Balkan peninsula. more

The Yankees-Twins game ought to be fun
Oct 7, 2009, 9:55 AM EDT
Not because of the baseball, but because of the weather:
Today: Partly sunny, with a high near 73. Breezy, with a west wind between 20 and 24 mph, with gusts as high as 50 mph.
Tonight: Partly cloudy, with a low around 52. Breezy, with a west wind between 11 and 20 mph, with gusts as high as 43 mph.
According to 'Zop over at BTF, west winds at Yankee Stadium blow out to center. That sound you hear is Brian Duensing and CC Sabathia sobbing sadly in anticipation.
- Alan - Oct 7, 2009 at 10:28 AM
I don't think anyone cares about your column anymore or what you have to say anymore. Thats what happens when you become irrelevant.

- Craig Calcaterra - Oct 7, 2009 at 10:51 AM
Yet here you are reading and commenting. Twice.
- Dr. Yogi - Oct 7, 2009 at 10:55 AM
Weird, Alan, do you have a habit of reading and commenting about irrelevant writers? What does that say about you?
- Grant - Oct 7, 2009 at 12:15 PM
Craig is so irrelevant that he has two well-trafficked and respected blogs.
Sigh. I keep telling myself not to feed the trolls and then here I go again…
- Sal - Oct 7, 2009 at 12:24 PM
Craig come back tomorrow with the same topic on your column and the results. I have a gut feeling you are right about this. I want to see what Alan thinks then.
- Church of the Perpetually Outraged - Oct 7, 2009 at 12:35 PM
If true, then hopefully this plays out correctly:
Duensing – 5.68 K/9
Less balls in play = less chances for HR
- Gwar Desires Your Soul - Oct 7, 2009 at 3:25 PM
Because there are no other factors in play when determining who will give up a greater number of homeruns….none.
- Malcohm McGregor - Oct 7, 2009 at 3:42 PM
Any wind blowing out of this Yankee Stadium on any day means HR's. This silly bandbox was designed to give up HR's and has proven it's point this year. Terrible deliberate stadium design by the do anything to win Damn Yankees.
- Don W - Oct 8, 2009 at 12:47 PM
% of Yankees' HR's @ Yankee Stadium – 55.7%
% of opponent's HR's Yankees gave up @ Yankee Stadium – 55.8%
Those dirty Yankees, cheating again by obviously building a stadium that aided them way more than their opponent! (insert eye roll)
Yes the new Yankee Stadium appears to be homer heaven. I say appears because one year is far too little data to be sure. (If you don't believe me please explain how Angels Stadium goes from a HR park factor of 0.933 in 2008 to a 1.220 in 2009. New Yankee Stadium was a 1.261 this year.) However, the idea that the Yankees are somehow cheating and greatly benefiting from the propensity for HR's is ridiculous. The numbers are clear, the wall in right-center field helped BOTH teams equally this year.

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Staff,, brandrepublic.com, Wednesday, 06 February 2002 08:16AM
The mailing to members of the Book Club Associates book club carried pictures of hit movies on its front cover, including Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, but inside were details of a range of adult movies.
Complainants argued that the material was offensive and unsuitable to be seen by children and the Advertising Standards Authority agreed.
BCA argued that all the videos advertised in the promotional book had received an 18 certificate and were on sale to the public. It said that both pages giving details of the adult movies were marked as containing videos in the "adult" category.
However, the ASA said that, because the booklet advertised movies such as Shrek and Star Wars on the cover, children were likely to pick it up and it concluded that because BCA had included no warning it was likely to cause widespread offence.

The Dark Knight - Grading & Discussion

Re: The Dark Knight - Grading & Discussion
Wow, I couldn't even find this thread after I saw the movie and I caught it before it left the theater.
Anyway, I thought it was light years better than Batman Begins. That has everything to do with Heath Ledger's masterful performance as the Joker which, just like Nicholson's in "Batman", carried the movie to heights it would never have achieved otherwise.
Christian Bale continues to be less than scintillating as Batman. I couldn't believe that voice. Jackie Earle Haley as Rorscach accomplished in Watchmen what Bale can only dream of as Batman.

Sorry. I meant to give you five stars.
She sounds horny. How do you feel about being thee other man?
- Show Older Hide Older
Well just follow her lead. Are you sure you want to give her your virginity?
Believe me I'm not trying to save it, at 25, I'm desperate to lose it. Her or any other attractive woman would be fine. Also, the thought of losing my virginity to an older, more experienced woman is a bit of a turn on :)

text: Filmed in French, the Canadian Adolescents consists of three short tales of the trials and tribulations of teenhood. In "Fiametta", Micaela Esdra moons over her deceased father, whose omniprescent memory squelches her mother's latest romance. "Genevieve" features Genevieve Bujold and Louise Marleau as close friends who drift apart after handsome Bernard Arcand honors Bujold with a kiss. And in "Marie-France and Veronica", Veronice Duval and Nadine Ballot simultaneously experience a sexual awakening while visiting Paris. Though three directors worked on The Adolescents, the film maintains a consistency of mood and quality throughout. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Slim-line PlayStation 2 (PS2)
4.5 out of 5 Pocket-lint recommended
Size of a hardback book, network card built in
Power adapter is large, still just the same old PS2
Car manufacturers do it, homeowners do it, even people do it with the help of a plastic surgeon, so its no surprise that after five years the PlayStation 2 has gone through a revamping process.
While the specifications remain the same the redesigned unit has been heavily condensed in size. The overall size has been reduced by 75 per cent, the weight has been halved and the thickness trimmed down to 2.8cm (it was 7.8cm) making the model roughly the same size as a hardback book.
The notable difference is the removal of the power pack from within the device and this is obviously how Sony has managed such a reduction in size. Additionally the CD tray no longer slides out as in the "Fat" model and you are left with a pop up lid similar to portable CD players. But it's not all pared down. Also built-in to the unit is an Ethernet port allowing users to connect to the internet via broadband and play games online.
The performance is still the same, as is its support for two joysticks and two memory cards. The machine can still play DVDs, however it is now silent in its running something you can't say about Microsoft's Xbox.

The Intrepid encourages moviegoers to bring their own lawn chairs, picnic baskets and blankets, but leave the booze at home.
Be sure to have a place in line at the west side highway entrance to the Intrepid when doors open at 7:30pm each screening night. Seating is first-come, first-served and there is no admission after 8:30. It's a tight window, but for something this awesome and this free, it's totally worth it.

Kelley: Turning the page on textbook selection process
If journalists pound out "the first rough draft of history," who writes the final version?
I certainly hope it's not those folks who churn out high school history texts. These guys produce little more than rambling, turgid assemblages of "too much information," which, weighing in at 3-5 pounds, numb both the minds and backs of young scholars.
Don't take my word for it. If you have school-age offspring, just ask them.
If you prefer to check with a respected expert instead, consult Diane Ravitch. Her 2004 "Consumer's Guide to High School History Textbooks," sponsored by the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, evaluated 12 widely used United States and world history texts.
"The books reviewed in this report range from the serviceable to the abysmal," observed Fordham President Chester E. Finn, Jr. "None is distinguished or even very good."
Furthermore, "because textbook publishers bend over backward not to offend anybody or upset special-interest groups," he added, "so much in today's history texts is simplified and sanitized."
The result, Finn noted, "is fat, dull, boring books that mention everything, but explain practically nothing."
The bottom line: A collective loss of the American memory when it comes to the story of us. Year after year, the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Education agonizes as it reports that young people in America are, to an alarming degree, "historically illiterate."
The American Council of Trustees and Alumni commissioned the Roper Center to survey college seniors from the nation's "best" (according to the annual rankings of "US News and World Report") colleges and universities. Four out of five or 81 percent of seniors from the top schools received a grade of D or F on an exam drawn from basic high school curriculum questions.
Why? According to a recent poll, more than half of American high school history teachers did not major or even minor in history. Lacking expertise, they must rely on the text or at least on "the instructor's version" in order to keep up with the class.
Those who did acquire a university sheepskin in history, however, with no say in selecting the textbooks used in their classes, teachers charged with imparting essential historical information about the nation or the world, find themselves shackled to tomes that are simply inadequate.
Not only do these volumes fail to grab the attention of students in any compelling way but in the process of being whitewashed to win over state adoption committees, they fail to accurately portray history as well.
When Robert Harris, the writer of best-selling historical thrillers, was asked to address history teachers tormented by student ennui, he advised: "We should restore the importance of the narrative when we approach the subject. The human brain latches onto stories, not disjointed facts."
"Students also have to have empathy with historical characters," Harris added. "Get them to imagine being in a particular place at a particular time and they will understand it better than restricting themselves entirely to the facts."
When "Don't Know Much About History" was first released in 1990, author Kenneth C. Davis viewed his work as an "anti-text" of American history. The original myth buster, Davis deliberately poked holes in the sterile versions of times-gone-by served up by hagiographic historians.
To the delight of his readers, old and young, he proved to be a writer who wasn't afraid of peppering his prose with a liberal dose of tongue-in-cheek humor as well.
In addition, he took great pains to showcase the lives of ordinary individuals in the populist tradition pioneered by Howard Zinn as well as including the illustrious movers and shakers popularized by Great Man theorists.
As Davis penned in the preface to his 2002 edition, "if nothing else, this little book proved that Americans don't hate histor — they just hate the dull version they got when growing up."
It is no secret that California, Texas, Florida and 19 other states with statewide schoolbook adoption processes effectively dictate content all across the fruited plain.
The marketplace of ideas that produced "Don't Know Much About History," which spent an enviable 35 weeks on the New York Times best-seller list and sold 1.3 million copies, seems to play no role in the choice of textbooks for young scholars in America's public schools.
"The present system of statewide textbook purchasing," Ravitch exhorts, "has warped the writing, editing and production of textbooks and should be abolished — (leaving individual) teachers free to select the books, anthologies, histories, biographies, software and other materials that will help students meet (academic) standards."
Why is government so reluctant to let teachers teach? Let's make "boring" a word that never appears in the same sentence as "history." How can we make that happen? History always starts with a first rough draft.

Sarasota, Florida (PRWEB) December 06, 2012
Center For Sight, the premier multi-physician vision, hearing, cosmetic and skin care practice in Southwest Florida, today announced the expansion of its practice to University Park/Lakewood Ranch. The new office site, located at 5409 University Parkway, will host a vast array of services including primary eye care, advanced diagnostic testing, a full-service optical department; plus access to the region's most esteemed ophthalmologists with expertise in Laser Cataract Surgery, All-Laser LASIK and treatment for glaucoma, retina and macula care and other serious eye conditions.
This incomparable practice is situated in the former solo-practice location of David Hunt, O.D. Dr. Hunt has integrated his practice with Center For Sight and will continue to see patients in that office. He will be joined by Center For Sight optometrists Melissa Hammond, O.D., and Kristin Stoker-Doyle, O.D. Their former office location, on Tuttle Avenue, has now been consolidated into the University Parkway office.
"The greatest benefit of this integration is that patients in University Park and Lakewood Ranch will have more convenient access to top-notch eye care professionals, as well as state-of-the-art equipment and facilities," said David Shoemaker, M.D., Founder and Director of Cataract and Lens Replacement Surgery. "We couldn't be more pleased to add Dr. Hunt to our team. His expertise as a primary eye care physician and proficiency in the management of pre- and post-operative eye surgery fits perfectly with our commitment to excellence." With more providers at the University Parkway location, Center For Sight has increased its hours of operation – and now offers more evening and weekend appointments.
Dr. Hunt is a board certified optometric physician who provides a wide range of primary eye care services including comprehensive eye examinations, prescriptions for glasses and con

MABEN – The East Webster Wolverines packed a punch when it came to athletics last year.
"It was a great year," East Webster athletic director and football coach Doug Wilson said. "Every team competed and that is all we can ask of our kids. We are always in the hunt. It was just a great season where every game was enjoyed."
Football was one of those teams who was in it until the very end. After starting out at an impressive 6-0, the young Wolverine squad battled week in and week out to the "last whistle" of a "tough district" schedule.
"Football we started off real strong, (but) just didn't finish quite like we wanted to," Wilson said. "Of course, we hit that tough district where every Friday night was a tough game. Still the kids competed to the last whistle and that is all we can ask of them."

47 year old man | Ventura, CA, USA | Seeking women 33-44 within 20 miles
Life really is too short, it is time for me to find that special someone.
Lets be honest with each other. You never know when you are going to meet someone when the CHEMISTRY is RIGHT. Going on to Match.com is a bit embarrassing. I never had trouble meeting quality woman in my past. I have come to grips with reality. I am simply not in the position to meet in my situation. That being said, exposing myself this way can only improve my odds of finding YOU. I am not here to date. I want more. I am really down to earth. I do not judge anyone. Artists run in the family but my canvas is usually a house, landscaping or a building. I totally get women. Well, I think I am funny. I am smart. I am fit. I understand and have integrity. I like eating ice cream from the carton just as it melts. I love walking my dog, he is so entertaining. My Jack Russell meets so many people for me. I wake up happy, but not too happy, every day. I love to cook and have some experience as I used to own an Italian restaurant. Writing about myself here is not my favorite thing. I really enjoy the company of talent and beauty and wisdom. I grew up in the outdoors but I love a clean house. I am great with children, as I am just a big kid myself. I am a commercial fisherman in both Alaska and Southern Cal. Work 7 mo's/yr. I have always been my own boss. I appreciate a good sense of humor. I take relationships seriously. My dog travel's with me. Alex . I have had very little opportunity to date as my work takes me to very remote locations. I would like to meet a woman who is in good physical condition and health and mentally stable, (and may want to travel, but doesn't have to travel). I have worked hard to get where I am. I now am in the position to start enjoying the fruits of my labor. I am a happy person. I have a lot of energy and usually put it to good use. I have a lot of experience in a vast array of jobs, travel and general knowledge. oddly enough I have never been a good speller, I was on a sailboat with my family from 4th grade to 10th. LOL. I enjoy good conversations. I respect women tremendously. I have been humbled. My first impression of resorting to internet dating is probably common. But I hear more and more of my friends and colleagues having success. Out of college I started a restaurant. I worked that for 10 years, I have no regrets but it was not terribly profitable and a lot of hard work. I sold it in 2001, bought a sailboat and cruised the Pacifc coast and into Mexico and beyond. In 2006 After an extended sabbatical, I created a career in the fishing industry. It has been very good to me. I may be a little picky. But I am looking for a woman in great shape, intelligent, spiritual, creative, outgoing, open-minded, stable and free to travel from one home to another following the seasons. I would like to establish one home, probably in SoCal that I call Home. I have homes in Alaska, Washington, California and Mexico (La Paz).

Rhode Island NECAP science scores improved in grade eight for the fourth consecutive year, while declining slightly in grades four and 11, the Rhode Island Department of Education recently reported.
Overall, 33.8 percent of tested students in the state attained the level of proficiency or better on the 2013 NECAP science assessments, which all students in grades four, eight and 11 took last May. The statewide results represent a decline of 1 percentage point from last year and an increase of 10 percentage points since NECAP science assessments began five years ago.
WOOD RIVER JUNCTION ŌĆö Motivated by the parental outcry at the Chariho School CommitteeŌĆÖs meeting on Sept. 24 over whether to hire a new principal at the Ashaway School, Catherine Guisti, a Hopkinton resident and mother of three, presented her proposal for a ŌĆ£parent liaisonŌĆØ volunteer position to the committee on Tuesday evening.
HOPKINTON ŌĆō ŌĆ£ThereŌĆÖs no scandal like rags, nor any crime so shameful as povertyŌĆØ, once stated 17th century Irish dramatist George Farquhar. As the centuries passed, that statement remained true in the eyes of the helpless and destitute. Over-come with hopelessness, loathe to take charity, and well aware that more people would whisper about such a condition than try and alter it, the stigma of poverty has remained what it always was; a scandalous and shameful way of life.
CHARLESTOWN ŌĆō On Sept. 21, Ninigret Park hosted the annual Harvest Festival to raise money for the Community Garden, which grows fresh food for people in need.
The festival was very family-oriented, providing activities for children and adults alike.
One speaker, Thawn Harris, told stories from Native American tradition with a modern twist.
HOPKINTON ŌĆö Proceeding from separate investigations, police arrested two town residents for possession of marijuana plants.
WOOD RIVER JUNCTION ŌĆö ŌĆ£Necessity of Two Principals for Hopkinton Elementary Schools,ŌĆØ was the agenda's red flag that resulted in over 75 parents and supporters to crowd into the Chariho School Committee meeting on Tuesday night.
In its last meeting, the committee approved the transfer of Steven Morrone, Ashaway School's former principal, to Chariho Middle School. That evening, the committee also discussed the possibility of sharing one principal between Hopkinton's two elementary schools as a strategy to lower district costs.
CHARLESTOWNŌĆöSeveral Narrow Lane residents reported a low-flying helicopter with individuals armed with high-powered rifles shooting toward the ground at about 3 p.m. Sunday. According to the police report, the passengers in the helicopter were shooting down at a junked vehicle located in the Shoreline Gravel bank at 60 Narrow Lane.
RICHMOND ŌĆö In a surprise reveal Tuesday night, the town council announced it had hired a new town administrator ŌĆō someone energetic, well-qualified, and media-savvy.
ŌĆ£Will the real Robert Basler Rock please stand up?ŌĆØ joked Town Council President B. Joseph Reddish as he introduced the newly hired town administrator to the audience. All heads turned as a young man who had been sitting quietly in the back of the town council chambers stood to accept applause and congratulatory handshakes.
RICHMOND ŌĆō A Wakefield woman was killed early Friday morning when her vehicle struck a utility pole on Kingstown Road.
Sierra S. Stanton, 24, of Wakefield died from injuries she sustained in a motor vehicle accident, which occurred at 1:30 a.m. Friday morning, Richmond Police said.
HOPKINTON ŌĆō IŌĆÖd spent my childhood hearing my grandfather talk about him. Now, his name regularly falls from my brotherŌĆÖs lips. All I personally knew of Sonny Zampini was that he was in the scrapyard business and that probably everyone in town had called on him when they needed cars hauled away. Recently, upon discovering that he lives on the site of an old mill, I thought I might visit him and do a story. It didnŌĆÖt take long however, for me to realize that the story wasnŌĆÖt about a structure. It was about a man.

This month's new music roundup is heavy on the dance music—consider it a DIY antidote to the gray sky and wintery weather. We've got music from Ghana, Berlin, Portland, Brooklyn, the UK, and the tippy-tippy top of Cape Cod. Plus, we've got guitars and remixes and cow hearts to boot. Read below the jump for what was on the feminist music boilerplate in November!
Until this week, I was only peripherally aware of Lily Allen. Sure, I'd downloaded "Fuck You" and "Smile," her funny pop confections with a bracing dash of intelligence. But I never qualified as a Lily Allen fan, and in fact had kind of forgotten she was a thing until the Internet blew up with a heated debated about the video for her new song "Hard Out Here."
This XIGGA playlist is an afrofuturistic journey through time, space, and energy. It embraces the XIGGA afrophilocosmology that affirms the funky fresh and courageous ways that people navigate being both on the margins and at the center. Deep inside us lives a spirit that is bold and capable of afroastral flight. When we tap into the origins of our people, the truth of our spirits and the bass-beats of our hearts, we are capable of magic. It is true, our people could fly, and we do.

Before their set on the second night of a residency at Minneapolis music venue Icehouse rap trio GRRRL PRTY invited nearly a dozen female friends, each in matching GRRRL snapbacks, to dance and take over the stage. This was after a long night of sets from Chicago's Psalm One and Fluff Nasty, and Minneapolis rappers The Lioness and BdotCroc. The night was front-to-back female artists, a rarity for any show but a rarity for a hip-hop show especially.
Bitch is at Fun Fun Fun Fest in Austin, Texas, this weekend! Now in its 8th year, FFFFest (Fx4, to abbrev-loving Austinites) is the only genre-based festival in the country, with stages for comedy, hip hop/electronica, punk/metal, and indie rock. We were last at Auditorium Shores two years ago, and it's good to be back. Read on for our discoveries and recommendations for the rest of the weekend! If you're at the Fest, let us know who you're most excited about in the comments.
I started swing dancing in college as a way to meet people. That quickly led to a swing dancing obsession I still haven't recovered from.
For me, there's something about that nice eight-count beat that really picks me off my feet and cheers me up. So, to counteract the increasingly chilly weather, consistent downpours, and shorter days, I've assembled the cheeriest and most upbeat swing songs I could find. (Swing dancing also led to a significant liking for blues dancing, which may have leaked a bit into this mixtape—I just love Nina Simone too much.) So put on your dancing shoes and give it a listen!

Autumn is a glut of new music and bands on tour, so it's precisely zero surprising that our new music roundup for October is our longest yet. This month, we've got the world premiere of a new video by Julia Weldon, a song by a band called Hand Job Academy, and much, much more.
I started to listen to music a little differently after becoming a parent. It wasn't just about shielding little ears from raunchy talk and grown-up lyrics, although when my four-year-old started asking to listen to "Stacy's Mom," I realized I still had plenty to learn about this editing process. But I also found myself becoming much more attuned to songs about children and parents, and realizing that songs I'd listened to with neutral ears in the past were becoming almost unbearably sad to hear now. Case in point: Iron and Wine's "Upward Over the Mountain," sung from the point of view of a deadbeat son to his stalwart mother, made me tear up from the opening line and had me in full sobs by the end. So from joyous to cautionary, wistful to bittersweet, here's a selection of songs that capture parent-child relationships in all their lovely, messy, and overwhelming humanity.
Songs for Awesome Parents from BitchTapes on 8tracks Radio.

"Pray to Jesus" is a good song to kick off Brandy Clark's debut solo album, 12 Stories. Like the tracks that follow, it's from distinctly female point of view with touches of levity underlying real issues of family and livelihood. "Don't want to be buried in debt or in sin/ So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto/ Cause there ain't but two ways we can change tomorrow."
It's a Friday Bitchtape curated by Northwest indie music label Kill Rock Stars! Here are 11 of our favorite tracks from Kill Rock Stars's 21-year history. Check out new tracks from the past year like Corin Tucker Band's new hit and a classic from Sleater-Kinney.

Starscream with Swindle Review
Starscream with Swindle
Transformers - Armada (Hasbro) - Maxcon Assortment
Long ago, Starscream may have been a noble, caring soul, but after centuries of abuse dealt by Megatron, Starscream has become disillusioned with his leader, now reliving that Megatron does not care for him, would throw his life away in an instant, and does not give Starscream the respect he deserves. Only time will tell whether Starscream will remain loyal to Megatron or finally lash out at the Decepticon commander. Has Megatron created a monster even can not control?
Starscream transforms into a combination of a Sukhoi Su-35 jet fighter and a Cybertronian jet fighter. Starscream is partnered with the Minicon Swindle who, when powerlinxed to his very back port, activates his flip out missile cannons which fire spring loaded missiles. This works in either Robot or Jet Mode's. His left wing can be removed and unfolded into a sword which can be held in either of his tiny hands.
The Decepticon symbol is located on front edges of his wings, the bottom tip of the "face" touching the red outer edge. Swindle can be stored under his nose cone. Pressing down on the cockpit will cause the little red Minicon to be deployed from the storage space.
Transforming Starscream is essentially stuffing everything under his wings and nose cone to create a plane like craft. His cockpit transforms into his torso and his rear tail fins become his lower legs. The guns or landing gear, depending on how you look at it, transforms into his arms and the hand fold out from inside them. The wings are simply turned upward to complete the transformation.
Swindle is a smooth talker and cool playa that can worm his way out of all most any situation and convince almost anyone to get him what he wants. Though he gets along well with his Bulk partner, Starscream, you can never be to sure how much of that is an act. Lacking the moral fiber to be a hero, Swindle suffers from to much guilt to be a villain, leaving him somewhat alone. Swindle transforms into a crimson F1 Racer. The upper part of the car is pulled apart to form his arms and the lower "nose" of the car is pulled apart with the tip folding upward to form his legs and feet. Push down the fin to reveal Swindles head.
Now for the bad news. Starscreams sword has a small problem staying plugged into his side in its wing mode and he has a bit of a balance problem because of his extended back section to accommodate the powerlinx port for Swindle.
Over all, Starscream and Swindle get four and a half stars out of five.

Faces from the #Not1More Boston Rally Against Deportations (4/17/14)
President Obama has deported 2 million people since he came into office and is the nation's "Deporter in Chief." Despite signing an executive order to halt the deportations of undocumented immigrants who came as children, he has taken no similar actions to halt the deportations of their older family members. Families are being split and destroyed every day by the Obama administration's current policies, and President Obama has the power to sign a similar executive order tomorrow halting all deportations until Congress takes comprehensive action. But he has refused and continues to drag his feet, and some of the most marginalized families in our country are paying the price of his inaction.
I had the pleasure to attend and take pictures at this rally last Thursday, and it was incredibly moving.
Together we say: not one more family destroyed, not one more day without equality, not one more indifferent reaction to suffering, not one more deportation.

Home Made Cheese Souffle
|1 Tablespoon
|All purpose flour
|1 Tablespoon
|1⁄3 Cup (5.33 tbs)
|Cayenne pepper
|1 Dash
|Dry mustard
|1⁄8 Teaspoon
|Sharp cheddar cheese
|3⁄4 Cup (12 tbs), shredded
|Parmesan cheese
|2 Tablespoon, grated
|2 , separated
In a pan over medium heat, melt butter, stir in flour, and cook, stirring, until bubbly.
Remove from heat and gradually stir in milk; add cayenne and mustard.
Cook, stirring, until thick.
Add Cheddar cheese and 1 tablespoon of the Parmesan; stir over heat until cheese melts.
Remove cheese mixture from heat and beat in egg yolks.
Beat egg whites until they hold distinct but moist peaks; carefully fold into cheese mixture.
Butter well a 3 to 4-cup souffle dish or 2 individual 1 1/4-cup souffle dishes; coat inside with remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese.
Pour in souffle mixture and with the tip of a knife, draw a circle on top surface about 1 inch inside rim.
Bake in a 350° oven until souffle feels firm when lightly tapped and crack looks fairly dry (about 18 to 20 minutes for a 1-quart dish, 12 to 15 minutes for individual dishes).
