Bathford rugby player Ben Sparks tackles Fiji
Posted: November 14, 2012|
Just days after England defeated Fiji at Twickenham on Saturday, Bath boy Ben Sparks was also lining up against the Pacific Islanders as he made his first appearnce for Gloucester in a hard-fought victory at Kingsholm.
The 22 year-old from Bathford was brought on with 10 minutes to play and helped his team close out an extremely tight encounter that saw Gloucester recover from an 18-0 defecit, to defeat the Fijians 31-29.
The Fiji team included 13 players from the squad that took on England over the weekend.
"It was a close game all the way through and they are a big heavy team" said Sparks, who is a former student of Corsham School and City of Bath College.
"It felt really good to get on. It is deffinitely a different level to the National League and much faster, I really enjoyed it".
Number eight Sparks is currently playing for part-time Cinderford in the National League 1 having moved there last Christmas. One of the main reasons the ex-Avonvale player signed up was because of the close ties the club have with Aviva Premiership side Gloucester and head coach Nigel Davies.
Davies has often utilised the club's youth selecting academy players in many LV=Cup and Amlin Challange Cup games already this season. Products of Gloucester's academy include England Saxons fly-half Freddie Burns and winger Charlie Sharples, who is currently impressing for the England senior team.
"Nigel Davies is renowned for getting younger players through and giving them time in the first team, so hopefully he can do that for me" said Sparks, who has also had opportunities to train with Gloucester's academy team and get game time in the acadeny league.
Sparks trained with the first team last week after he was selected as a replacement for the LV=Cup loss to Ospreys on Friday and remained with the team in the build up to his apperance against Fiji.
He feels that the experience training with the likes of Mike Tindall and the rest of the first team will serve him well as he returns to play for Forest of Dean based club Cinderford.
"It's a bit tricky to go into a team having to pick up all their moves quickly" he said. "But all the guys are really helpful and got me up to date. They give you tips and help you improve your game and become a better member of the team, which is the most important thing".
Bath Rugby fan Sparks already has an extensive CV which shows steady progress through the ranks of English rugby. At 20 he first played in the National League 1 for Stourbridge while training with the Worcester Warriors Academy and also travelled to Australia to play for Sydney based team Eastern Suburbs.
Throughout that period he began to leave his mark on the national stage by captaining both the South West of England under-20s and the England Counties under-20s squad against Scotland in May 2011. Following that he was selected for the England Counties senior team and hopes to continue his development at both club and national level.
"My aim now is to get as much game time for Cinderford as I can and hopefully there will be a spot at Gloucester for me in the future" he said. "I want to get back to training full time as soon as possible, that's when I play my best rugby".

MLA Language Map
Want to know how many people speak Yiddish or Creole in your neighborhood? The Modern Language Association's new Language Map displays the locations and numbers of speakers of the 30 languages most commonly spoken in the United States. You can search by language and state and the tool produces a map of how many people speak that language by county or zip code.
The maps are based on data from the 2000 census' long form, which was filled out by one in six households, so the results are not exact or current -- but they give you a good idea as to how prevelant languages are in local areas.
Thanks to Morris Digital Works' Manager of Product Strategy Ken Rickard for the tip.

Many of your favorite sites on the Internet have gone dark today to protest legislation that could profoundly affect bloggers, social media mavens and those entities that believe in the free speech on the Web.
The U.S. House's Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) legislation and the Senate's Protect IP Act (PIPA) are the talk of the Internet primarily because both bills, in an attempt to address third-party copyright infringement and online piracy, are an overreach that threatens free speech and brings into question the scope of "fair use." A thumbnail sketch of the legislation by PC World's Jared Newman:
Originally, both bills provided two methods for fighting copyright infringement on foreign websites. In one method, the U.S. Department of Justice could seek court orders requiring Internet service providers to block the domain names of infringing sites. For example, Comcast could prevent its customers from accessing thepiratebay.org, although the underlying IP address would still be reachable. This ISP-blocking provision was a major concern among Internet security experts, and both SOPA and PIPA have dropped it.
The other tool would allow rights holders to seek court orders requiring payment providers, advertisers, and search engines to stop doing business with an infringing site. In other words, rights holders would be able to request that funding be cut off from an infringing site, and that search links to that site be removed. The site in question would have five days to appeal any action taken.
Although the House and Senate bills are similar, SOPA is the more extreme of the two. It defines a "foreign infringing site" as any site that is "committing or facilitating" copyright infringement, whereas PIPA is limited to sites with "no significant use other than" copyright infringement. More details on SOPA and PIPA are available through the Library of Congress website.
The real harm here is the legal silencing effect — cut from the cloth of the Righthaven slap suits — that will make it difficult, if not impossible, for small independent sites caught up in an infringement inquiry to afford extensive litigation whether or not they are actually guilty of using copyrighted content.
Of course Righthaven also overreached — the nearly defunct copytrolling outfit destroyed itself because of its legal incompetence (judgments showed that it didn't hold the actual right to sue, and cases were tossed out) — but it did force
extort victims to settle for sums of money (the Blend included) that nearly bankrupted them or forced sites to go dark. [read more]
This is the prospect many could face under SOPA and PIPA for simply citing a few paragraphs of a content provider such as the Associated Press and providing a link back to the source. The AP, in fact, has launched its own version of Righthaven, NewsRight (my post here), that will give an alleged violator "grace" if it pays the undetermined licensing fee to avoid being slapped with a lawsuit. That's an improvement on the disgraced Righthaven, which sued first, and asked no questions as it asked victims to "pay up" thousands of dollars.
Did I mention that Steve Gibson, Righthaven's chief executive, along with two former Righthaven lawyers, are now being investigated by the Nevada State Bar?
Back to SOPA and PIPA — if the legislation passed and independent sites were to try to fight accusations of infringement, it would cost an enormous amount money, and I venture that many smaller sites would likely go under. It would also open the floodgates for additional private lawsuits. Given the trail of destruction left by Righthaven, with SOPA/PIPA intact and in place, the lawsuit abuse is incalculable. The fact is that this could lead to silenced independent voices because of fear of the slapsuit, even though the alleged targets of the bills are the small number of online pirates that are doing an enormous amount of wholesale IP theft from abroad of movies, music and other content.
What will the outcome be in the long run? Probably something of a win-win/lose-lose that will not satisfy either side. The money backing SOPA/PIPA means that ultimately some kind of modified legislation will pass. Will it ensure internet free speech as we know it now? Probably not — we're going to see battles in the courts, with the prospect of some blog casualties almost inevitable. And that chilling effect could be very real. Let's hope that I'm wrong.
I have not asked my co-bloggers to "go dark" — doing so is their personal decision. Aside from this post, I don't plan to publish any other linked content aside from the above.
At 11 AM ET, there will be a liveblog post here on PHB covering the launch of the statewide campaign by the Coalition To Protect All NC Families to defeat Amendment One at the polls on May 8.
* AP's content licensing venture NewsRight – another Righthaven threat in the wings?
* Here is a great primer at Reddit: "A technical examination of SOPA and PROTECT IP"
Call your members of Congress and tell them to vote no on SOPA and PIPA: 202-224-3121.

Cellphone Tracking Services: Friend Finder Or Big Brother?
Lecturer in Law and Executive Director of the Center for Internet and Society Lauren Gelman and Center for Internet and Society Resideential Fellow M. Ryan Calo are quoted in The Christian Science Monitor in an article about the privacy implications of GPS-equipped mobile phones:
Technology soon caught up with the idea. Today his company, Loopt, has more than 1 million users and is one of the most popular services to allow people to track their friends via their smart phones. And with more cellphones now equipped with GPS, other services such as Google Latitude are collecting location data from scores of users and broadcasting that information through phone networks or the Internet.
Such tracking services offer a great way for people stay connected – and can be a boon for parents – but their proliferation also has privacy advocates biting their nails. As companies forge into largely uncharted areas of tracking and recording customer locations, many worry that consumers won't be able to ensure that their private information – such as their whereabouts on a given day – is being safeguarded, especially from advertisers.
"How are we going to get all the benefits that come from doing geo-location without sacrificing people's privacy?" asks Lauren Gelman, executive director of Stanford Law School's Center for Internet and Society (CIS).
Ms. Gelman and other privacy experts caution that when users allow companies to track their locations, third parties – such as the government, litigants, and advertisers – can potentially tap into that data. "If you have the information, someone is going to come asking for it."
Services that keep tabs on your every move do seem a bit "creepy," admits Ryan Calo, a residential fellow at CIS and an expert on electronic privacy issues. But, he says, while they could potentially lead to some criminal wrongdoing, he doesn't think "location based services are going to play into that dynamic…. [I]n the bulk of cases, this tool is going to be used by people who already have a relationship to augment that relationship."
Some tracking services, for example, allow family members keep track of each other or parents to keep an eye on their children.
Much of what's driving the growth of mobile social networking or geo-locating services, says Mr. Calo, is the fact that "location data is really salient. It really matters to an individual to find things around them and really matters to advertisers to connect with people."

Sergio Pettis dominates at NAFC: Battleground, possible move to the UFC next
Sergio Pettis dominates at NAFC: Battleground, possible move to the UFC next | UFC NEWS MMA News | Mixed Martial Arts | UFC News | BJPenn | MMA Fight | UFC Fights
NAFC: Battleground took place on March 29th at the Potawatomi Bingo Casino Exposition Center in Milwaukee, WI. Fighting in his hometown may have given Pettis more motivation going into the fight. Talking to Pettis prior to the fight he had this to say about that fact:
I am excited to fight back at home. My whole family is coming to see me, its been awhile since I fought at home in Milwaukee.
AS Pettis entered the arena he was followed closely by two important figures in his life; his brother Anthony and his head trainer Duke Roufus. Rufousport has become more than just a gym for the young fighter.
Its amazing. Dukes gym is amazing, its not even a gym anymore its more of a family. We are all there helping each other out, theres no bad egos at the gym.
Anthony hugged his little brother and then became just like the rest of the people in attendance; a spectator. Anthony cant fight Sergios battles for him once the younger brother enters the cage. After tonights fight against a very tough Josh Robinson there is no doubt the younger Pettis can hold his own.
For three rounds Pettis showcased his all-around skills in the cage. The first two-rounds he displayed a striking game that has made his older brother so fun to watch. Sergios display of flawless technique and accurate striking through rounds 1 & 2 made his opponent look out-of-place. Sergio consistently landed head kicks with ease on his opponent, until the third round he decided to showcase his ground game.
Pettis took Robinson down early in the third and displayed an aspect of his skills that many overlook; his ground and pound. This was a dominate display of the skills that have earned Sergio the honor of being named one of the top 25 fighters under the age of 25. Take into the fact he is only 19 and still learning makes facing him scary.
Sergio Pettis improved his record to an unblemished 7-0 with the Unanimous Decision victory. There were rumors before the fight that this may be his last fight outside of the UFC. Something the fighter does not think about:
Im not really in a rush to get into the UFC. Of course, when it happens Im going to be 100% and Im going to be ready for it. But Im more than comfortable growing in the sport, and the more fights I have the comfortable Ill be in the cage and thats where you can see the real me.

So I'm in the bathroom with Ethan and Emily and they are both on their potty chairs and I'm sitting there just waiting for someone to poop. Finally Emily goes and as soon as she steps up she takes off with the potty chair cup and runs into the kitchen.
She dumped poop in the kitchen sink.
She dumped poop where I wash my vegetables.
I guess this is one of life's "bleachable moments" that tide was talking about.
I get the kids cleaned up and slap a diaper on them and then I go to work cleaning the sink.
I hear a loud noise by an "Oh no your naughty." and I walk over to find that the kids dumped an entire bag of sugar all over the floor I spent the last hour mopping.
Oh well, no use crying over spilt...... sugar.

Action Plan: Control Your Credit
It's hard to imagine functioning in modern life without a credit card. Renting a car, reserving a hotel room or shopping online would all be much more difficult without plastic. But credit cards can also get you into trouble. It is very easy to overspend and find yourself in an extraordinary amount of debt.
Learn to control your spending and pay down your credit cards. It's not hard—the key is to make your credit cards less convenient to use. Then devise your own personal rules on when to use cash and when to use credit.
Follow these tips to get you started:
- Decide how you are going to use credit. You need to be clear how you want to use your credit: convenience, emergencies, big purchases you can afford to pay overtime. This will allow you to control the level of debt you build up. If you are married, you and your spouse must agree to keep control together.
- Have only one major credit card. Multiple cards mean numerous chances to build debt. It's also easier—and in the long run less expensive—to make larger payments on one card than to make minimum payments on many.
- Retire credit cards you don't need. Don't cancel the cards, just pay them off and stop using them. Better yet, destroy them. Keeping the accounts open actually works in your favor when it comes to your credit score because it gives you a higher available credit ratio. Be sure to check all your account statements regularly to ensure you're not victimized by identity theft or hit with non-activity or other fees.
- Stop using store credit cards. They typically charge the highest interest rates (up to 22 percent or more). Also decline discount offers that require signing up for a store's card. If you need to use credit, charge it to the one card you are using for all your purchases.
- Leave your credit cards at home. Get them out of your wallet. Take them with you only if you have a specific purchase in mind, a limit on how much you will spend and a plan to pay the balance within 30 days. Make sure the only people in the household who can use the credit cards are fully aware of your household's financial situation and are responsible for payment.
- Make your cards difficult to get to. If your credit cards are in a place where they won't be easily accessible, you have more time to consider the purchase is really worth the increased debt. The only way to control impulse spending is to slow down the process. Some experts even suggest freezing your credit cards in a block of ice. Watching them thaw out gives you plenty of time to think about the money you're about to spend.
- Avoid the urge to splurge. Maybe it is makeup and jewelry, electronics, music downloads or video games. It doesn't matter, we all have our weaknesses. The best way to avoid spending money you do not have is to stay away from places where you tend to make credit card purchases.
- Use a debit card. If you must use plastic, or don't like carrying cash, use a debit card that withdraws money from your checking account. You will get the convenience of a credit card without going into debt. But be careful and do not charge beyond your checking account balance. You will have to pay overdraft fees and interest. You can also ask your bank to deny debit card transactions that exceed your balance. Some banks now charge an annual fee for debit card usage. Be sure to check what fees you may incur from your bank for using a debit card.
- Dig yourself out of debt. Once you have your credit card spending under control, focus on paying down the debt you have. Keeping a balance on your card means you will pay interest and, possibly, fees to the credit card company. See the Dig Yourself out of Debt Action Plan for steps on how to pay down your debt faster.
The best way to control your credit is to know how you rank. See our Check Your Credit Score Action Plan to see where you stand.

What You'll Need:

Two Parts:Toning ExercisesImproving Your Diet
Want great glutes? This article will teach you various toning exercises and give you nutrition advice to help you achieve your best-looking backside.
Part 1 of 2: Toning Exercises
1Do hip lifts. Lay on your back with your hands at your sides and your knees bent at a 45 degree angle. Keeping your feet on the floor, lift your hips up in the air until they are aligned with your legs and torso. Hold for 10 seconds, and then bring your hips back down to the floor.
- For an advanced version, extend one leg into the air during each hip lift. Elevate your hips first, then extend your leg. Hold for ten seconds, then bring your leg back down to its original position before lowering your hips.
2Do squats with dumbbells. Stand with your legs shoulder-width apart, holding a five-pound dumbbell in each hand. Squat down as if you were going to sit down on a chair, keeping your back straight. Hold the position for a few seconds, and then squeeze your glutes as you return to standing position.
3Plié. This move isn't just for ballerinas; it's also a great butt-toning exercise! Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your toes pointing outward. Keeping your back straight and your arms held out in front of you, lower yourself into a squatting position, and then use your glutes to bring you back to standing position. Repeat the move for one to two minutes.
4Do pilates, yoga, or other total-body toning exercises. These types of exercises help create long, lean muscles, which is ideal for women who want to avoid getting "bulky."
- Join a yoga or pilates studio, and go to classes 3-5 times per week.
- If you are a member of a gym, see what toning classes are available for members. Many gyms have shorter 20-minute classes that focus on one particular area like abs or buns.
5Do butt-toning aerobic exercises. These types of exercises give you the best of both worlds: you will build muscle while getting your aerobic workout in, improving your cardiovascular health in the long run.
- Walk or run uphill. Walking uphill uses gravity as resistance to tone up your backside, legs, and core at the same time. If you don't want to walk outside, then use a Step Master machine, walk up stairs, or use a treadmill on an incline.
- Use a stationary bike or elliptical on high resistance. Both of these machines can help slim and shape up your legs while also tightening your butt.
- For long, lean muscles, do these exercises for a longer period of time on low resistance. For bulkier muscles, do these exercises for a shorter period of time on high resistance.
Part 2 of 2: Improving Your Diet
1Eat a balanced diet. The idea that loading up on extra protein will magically help you gain muscle is a common misconception.[1] Instead, eat a balanced diet that consists of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains.
- Examples of lean proteins include chicken, turkey, fish, tofu, and tempeh.
- Filling up on fruits and vegetables will help you stay fuller for longer, which will aid in weight-loss.
- Switch from white rice and bread to their healthier, whole-grain counterparts.
2Cut out extra sugars and empty carbohydrates. These foods provide little in the way of nutrition, and are stored as fat if they are not burned off immediately through exercise. What's the use in toning your butt and legs if they are covered in a layer of fat?
- Read food labels. You'd be surprised to learn that extra sugars have been creeping into your bread, salad dressings, cooking sauces, and fruit juice!
3Reduce cellulite. The butt and thighs are generally problem areas when it comes to cellulite, which is fat that is stored near the surface of the skin. Remember that cellulite has to do with your age, body type, and what you eat, and little to do with your weight. Follow these tips to reduce and prevent cellulite:
- Be active throughout the day. Having a sedentary lifestyle is extremely detrimental to your health, and forces your body to store extra fat. If you work a desk job, be sure to get up and walk around during your breaks or lunch.
- Stay away from sugar and alcohol. If sugar is not immediately burned off through exercise, it is stored as fat in the body.
- Do resistance training. Remember that for every pound of muscle you gain, your body burns 50 more calories per day, even at rest![2]
We could really use your help!
- Take progress photos each week. When you're having a bad day look back at your starting photo to remind yourself why you want to change!
- Many gyms have toning classes that focus on specific body parts like abs, legs, or arms. If you are a member of a gym, take advantage of these classes.
- Do butt-toning exercises often, and remember that it will take some time before you can see visible results.
- Get in a habit of doing these every day. After a while if you keep doing the exercise and it will get easier!
- Use an exercise mat when doing floor exercises to protect your back.
- Have a certain time to exercise. Start off with 20 minutes increase your time to 45 minutes.
- Find an exercise buddy. Working out with others helps keep you motivated, and other people may have helpful tips and exercises to share with you.
- Make sure to ask your close friend how they think your progress is going!
- At work, at a desk or even instead of a chair - use an exercise ball! Great for toning, more fun, and can be used for many other workouts too!
- Use caution when lifting weights or using other heavy exercise equipment.
- Always wear proper exercise shoes when running, walking, or biking.

Five Days of Shoulder Pain
Page 3 of 4
Labs were obtained to aid in fever work up.
After evaluation of the patient, the orthopedic specialist expressed low suspicion for a septic joint and recommended an outpatient follow up appointment at the orthopedic clinic.
Despite the specialist's recommendations, the patient was admitted to the pediatric floor for suspicion of a septic shoulder. Concern for joint infection was discussed with the pediatric service with recommendation for orthopedic consultation upon patient arrival to the floor. Antibiotics were held until further work up was performed.
The pediatric department in consultation with orthopedics obtained an MRI. Some key images are shown at left.
What do you see on the MRI? Continue to NEXT page for conclusion

I feel that "he exact mechanism of shoulder subluxation in association with septic arthritis is not yet known. It has been theorized that expansion of the glenohumeral capsule and the closely associated ligaments from accumulation of pus and fluid leads to joint instability", is a great synopsis. I hope that this report will help many physicians. <-)iv style="overflow :hidden">< ;-)iv style="height:4 0px"><-)i v>

Ten Great Moments from Coal Miner's Daughter
From the first time I saw it as a ten-year-old girl, I fell in love with Coal Miner's Daughter. Never mind that my only real experience with Loretta Lynn prior to that point was listening to her 8-track tapes in my grandmother's baby blue Fleetwood Cadillac. I became fascinated with all things Doo and Loretta.
On a total side note, Tommy Lee Jones lives close to my neighborhood and I saw him one day outside one of my favorite restaurants. It took everything in me to not yell out, "Hey Doolittle!" I'm thankful I resisted because that's a road that can lead to a little piece of legislation known as a restraining order.
Anyway, when Coal Miner's Daughter began airing on a fancy new invention called "cable television" a few months after I first saw it in the theater, I watched it no less than sixty-four times. Maybe sixty-five. And to this day it's a movie I will sit and watch anytime I run across it on T.V.
I will also quote every single line and make everyone around me miserable. That's just a bonus.
And so I felt like I should share ten of my favorite lines. Honestly, I had a hard time narrowing it down to only ten.
1. Radio station manager: "And come off that dumb hillbilly act!"
Doolittle: "If you knew Loretta, you'd know that ain't no act."
Loretta Lynn: "Thank you, honey."
This exchange makes me laugh without fail.
2. Loretta Lynn: (after Loretta catches Doo with another woman) "Woman, if you want to keep that arm, you better get it off my husband."
Girl at fairgrounds: "Who are you telling what?"
Loretta Lynn: "I don't know who you are, but I know what you are."
I love this so much. Loretta was never afraid to speak her mind.
3. Loretta Lynn: "Dadgum it, Doo! You never ask me nothing! You just say, "Hey baby, here's the deal, take it or leave it." Well, it's drivin' me crazy, Doo!"
Doolittle: "Well, hell, then let's go up to the house, call a lawyer and get a divorce. I'm tired of this bullsh*t."
Loretta Lynn: "I don't want no divorce! I just want the dadgum bedroom in the back of the house!"
When my husband and I renovated our house about eight years ago, one of my very favorite things to yell out at random stressful construction moments was "I JUST WANT THE DADGUM BEDROOM IN THE BACK OF THE HOUSE!"
I don't know that he enjoyed that as much as I did.
4. Webb child: "Hey, how come she gets somethin' extry?"
Ted Webb: "Cause, your sister's become a young woman."
Webb child: "Aww, she ain't no woman, she ain't nothin' but a dadburn kid."
To this day I will still refer to someone as a "dadburn kid".
5. Ted: "I ain't ever gonna see you again."
Loretta: "Yes you will, daddy."
Ted: "Maybe, but i ain't never gonna see my little girl again."
This was such a poignant moment. I didn't totally understand it when I was younger but now it makes me cry every time.
6. Loretta: "I done wrote me a song Betty Sue. Your mama's a dadgum songwriter now."
Much like "dadburn", I believe the world would be a happier place if we all used the word "dadgum" more often. Plus, I just love this moment when Loretta starts to figure out she has a gift.
7. Loretta Lynn: "An' stop that growlin'. You sound like a big ol' bar."
I have used this line many times throughout my life. It helps that I'm married to someone who occasionally likes to growl.
8. Doolittle: "Get in and I'll drive you home."
Loretta: "I ain't gettin' in that thing. It looks like somethin' for Mars."
Doolittle: "Girl, what the hell do you know about Mars? I'll bet you ain't never been outside the mouth of this holler."
Loretta: "I know I ain't gettin' in that thing. If you like it so much; you can walk me home."
Doolittle: "Oh, Loretta; them pies ain't the only thing salty about you. Wait a minute; I'm comin'."
I think this was the moment I fell in love with this movie. The whole pie auction scene where Doolittle notices Loretta for the first time and then makes sure he has the highest bid for her pie only to discover she's mistaken the salt for the sugar and it's inedible. It embodies all those awkward moments of new courtship.
And reminds me of a similar moment in my life when I was a newlywed and experienced an unfortunate salisbury steak incident.
9. Doolittle: (after Loretta's first appearance on the Opry) "What we got to do next is, figure out what to do next."
We see throughout the movie that Doo was the mastermind behind Loretta's rise to success, but I love this because it shows he had absolutely no idea what he was doing.
10. Doolittle: "Hop in; I'll run you back up to the house. What are you doin' in this bottom anyway?"
Loretta: "I came to see the doctor."
Doolittle: "What for, you sick?"
Loretta: "Yeah, I'm sick alright; I'm gonna have a baby."
Doolittle: "You know, Loretta, we may have found something you know how to do."
Doo didn't know it at the time, but she was going to do a lot more than have babies. And while they certainly didn't have the healthiest relationship in the world, I love that he encouraged her and pushed her to be more than she ever imagined she could be.
And now I'm off to see if Coal Miner's Daughter happens to be showing on CMT today. Because I may catch something new if I watch it for the four hundred and sixty-third time.

Absolutely one of my favorite movies of all time. I saw it when I was a kid and didn't even know a think about Loretta Lynn. My sister and I use "dadgum" all the time.
lowcountryheather On Wednesday, October 12 at 7:03 pm
I LOVE THIS MOVIE!! So glad to see that others feel the same! Ha Ha! I know just about every line! My fave is one of yours, when Doo picks her up at the doctor's office!! My husband loves when they have the twins, because Doo was starting to feel un-needed until those baby girls come along! (he is Mr. Mom during the winter so he 'gets it')
Mountain Mama On Wednesday, October 12 at 7:17 pm
This WV girl loves that movie, too.
Susan Appleton On Wednesday, October 12 at 7:26 pm
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie and probably know all of the dialogue by heart! I KNOW that I know all of the songs and sing along EVERY time we watch it. I grew up playing bluegrass and country music and my real love is OLD COUNTRY MUSIC! So I know all of the Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette, etc. etc. songs! Now THAT is real country music! LOVE THIS MOVIE!
Peggy Sue On Wednesday, October 12 at 8:14 pm
Ah, Ree, I love this movie, too. I saw it on cable for the first time at a girlfriend's slumber party and it made a huge impression on me. I now own the DVD and forced my kids to watch it with me twice – they didn't enjoy it the first time, but I can tell it's growing on them. A couple more times and I know they'll be hooked. God bless Sissy Spacek and Loretta Lynn.
misskoren On Wednesday, October 12 at 8:42 pm
I was born a coal miners daughter I love this movie and I love Loretta Lynn. Such an amazing lady!
Patty (in Dallas) On Wednesday, October 12 at 9:04 pm
Coal Miner's Daughter is one of my top two favorite movies of all time. I can quote most of it, too. The line that always makes me sob is when she and Doo take the Jeep up to her dad's grave after they come back from Washington for his funeral. Doo asks why she puts plastic flowers on his grave. (paraphrasing – it's been a while)
"Why you gotta put plastic flowers out? In a while this whole place will be covered with real flowers," he said.
"Cuz they die," she said. "Everything just dies."
CarolSD On Wednesday, October 12 at 10:02 pm
Great post. LOVE this movie and could hear Sissy saying every word in the quotes you picked. Also saw this for the first time when I was about 10 or 11 and it's one of those movies I can't help but watch if I see it while flipping through the channels. An all time fav, for sure!
Melisa On Thursday, October 13 at 1:31 am
I love, Love, LOVE this movie!!! I always have but as I got older I realized the ties and similarities between Loretta and my grandmother Beulah Jean. You see, her maiden name was the same as Loretta's and they are distantly related. Both from the same area of Kentucky and the song "Coal Miner's daughter" could very well describe how she grew up. Water from a well, . . . "but in the winter time we'd all get a brand new 'par". I love this movie, that song and that it makes me cry. Is that weird?
Julia Chapman On Thursday, October 13 at 7:41 am
I love this movie SO much! I tell my husband to quit growlin' like an ol' bar all the time! lol
Phoebe On Thursday, October 13 at 7:52 am
This is one of my favorites! I can't tell you how many lines my sister and I love to say to each other…and the "growlin' lahk an ole bar" line…I say that to my husband too all the time. Thanks for the memories!
rian in Texas On Thursday, October 13 at 10:30 am
What about the part where loretta explains a ba-loneeehh sandwhychs mayke ya hawrney!? the more you eat the hawneier you geht!
KristinL On Thursday, October 13 at 10:56 am
One of my all time favorite movies as well. Also discovered when I was 10 and my cousin and I used to listen to the album (yes, album) over and over and over. I can recite the whole thing as well.
"Doo, I'm glad you're proud of me honey, but I cain't sing in front of those people, I just cain't".
Michele R On Thursday, October 13 at 1:41 pm
My personal favorite "Loretta, spread me up another one of them baloney sandwiches!"
JuliaD On Thursday, October 13 at 2:23 pm
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie. I also have seen a ba-zillion times and used to do a very good Loretta Lynn impersonation. Course, as you noted, I was way more excited about that fact than anyone else.
Tracy On Thursday, October 13 at 3:06 pm
LOVE this movie. Glad to know there are others that love a real life story that doesn't sugar coat life, but still shows who we are and how we get there.
Kathy On Thursday, October 13 at 4:31 pm
I'm so gad to find there are more of us out there. I love all these scenes too. Every morning when my husband stops to kiss me goodbye on his way out the door to work, I say "you leaving me, Doo?" And he replies "I'm leaving Loretti!"
So much fun!!!!
Pat On Thursday, October 13 at 9:04 pm
One of my favorites. And I'm a coal miner's granddaughter (South Wales).
Manette Gutterman On Thursday, October 13 at 9:29 pm
I'm a true Kentucky girl and have seen this movie hundreds of time since I was a girl. No one could have played the part better than Sissy. Classic!
KrisDot On Friday, October 14 at 12:44 am
I've loved this movie since I was 10 too! I've always loved it…my husband thinks I'm crazy cuz it's one of my 'I have to watch it every time I see it on tv' movies. One of my favorite lines from the movie is #7 (the growlin' like an old bar), I use it all the time on my kids! Sissy Spacek was excellent in this movie and SO deserved that Oscar!
KrisDot On Friday, October 14 at 1:13 am
I love this new section on PW! Love seeing people share love of some of my favorite movies like Coal Miner's Daughter, The Thrill of It All, and Same Time Next Year! Just thought I'd share!
Mama Maria On Friday, October 14 at 1:21 am
I absolutely LOVE this movie! Loved it since the first time I saw it.
I'm going to go and watch it too.
Melissa Freeman On Friday, October 14 at 8:09 am
What about the part where she's being interviewed on the radio and she talks about being horny. That always makes me laugh.
Tanya T On Friday, October 14 at 11:58 am
You should read her follow up to the Coal Miner's Daughter, the book is called " Still Woman Enough". Pretty eye opening about what her marriage and life was like with Doolittle. She's certainly one STRONG woman. Love her and love the movie too!
P.S. – I use the Growly Ol' Bear line on my husband too when he's grouchy! lol
Krisstinna On Friday, October 14 at 2:02 pm
I got to see Miss Loretta when I was 5 years old. I went to the concert with Grandparents. I remember seeing Miss Loretta in huge red ball gown. Oh how she sparkled! I even remember where we were sitting. I believe that was my first concert. What a memory. My teenage girls love her too. So I have passed on some great loves of my life to them.
Melissa C On Friday, October 14 at 4:50 pm
I think of the line, "I may be ignorant, but I ain't stupid" (may not be the exact quote, I'm using my memory here, and I can't count on that too well )
The word ignorant has come to be used so frequently nowadays to mean any kind of stupidity; so I often quote this to help my children see the difference.
Fun post!!
Cindi Berry On Friday, October 14 at 6:25 pm
I just happened to see this post about "Coal Miner's Daughter". I was a young girl going to college in Nashville, Tennessee when an older gentleman who was a regular in the restaurant I worked in to help with school tuition, asked me if I wanted to be an extra in a movie for $75 per day! Well, OF COURSE!! That movie ended up being "Coal Miner's Daughter" and I stood at the foot of the stage, mesmerized by Cissy Spacek for two whole days. I made it to the final cut, and appear as an excited fan flanking the singer in the scene where Loretta is going down the hall saying "Mah har, mah har!" after someone has cut some of her hair off. As a side note, the gentleman that took me with him to the filming of the movie actually ate breakfast a few mornings a week with Loretta's husband!
hazelbite On Monday, October 17 at 3:49 pm
I love me some Loretta Lynn. I was flipping thru my CD's the other day and "found" my copy of Van Lear Rose and have been listening to it nonstop just like I did when I first got it. I forgot how good of a storyteller Loretta is. I hope this is not her last album. She has some good years left in her.
Laurie On Wednesday, October 19 at 4:48 pm
You forgot "I may be ignorant, but I ain't stupid!"
Pound Foolish On Tuesday, October 25 at 3:02 pm
I always find a way to use "Patsy's" best line:
"When I get back, we're gonna go shoppin'. What we can't buy, we'll make. What we can't make, we'll steal!"
sonya On Monday, January 9 at 6:52 pm
This movie holds special memories for me. This was the last movie my folks went to q theater to see. My dad died a few years later

Calypso St. Barth Opening.
The lovely folks at Calypso St. Barth invited me this weekend to preview the new store in Chestnut Hill at The Street, and it's absolutely darling. First off, they have a great collection of resort wear that had me craving a warm weather getaway. And it was great to hear that despite being a national brand, they support local designers and has some beautiful jewelry pieces from local Boston artisans. They kindly helped me pick out a few things for myself, and to say I fell in love with the cashmere v-neck sweaters is an understatement — I mean, I might actually live in these in for the rest of the winter. Be sure to check them out if you're in the neighborhood!
Sweaters gift c/o Calypso St. Barth, all opinions are my own.

love the necklace + tunic combo!
navya November 20, 2013 at 5:43 pm
The shop looks beautiful! Almost makes me want to plan a tropical getaway so I can buy some pretty resort wear! Though I'd settle for a cashmere sweater too!
Boston JUGs November 21, 2013 at 12:46 pm

Passenger service on the new Silver Line will begin July 26, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority announced Monday.
The much-anticipated announcement came after months of construction delays stalled the opening of the new rail line, which includes four stations in Tysons Corner and terminates at Wiehle Avenue in Reston.
After those new stops, Silver Line trains will follow the path of Metro's current Orange and Blue lines, joining the Orange Line at East Falls Church and continuing through the District of Columbia, and then mirroring the Blue Line to its terminus at Largo Town Center in Maryland.
Metro General Manager and CEO Richard Sarles said service will begin at noon July 26 with a train departing from the Wiehle-Reston East station.
The week prior to opening, Metro will conduct a week of simulated service for employee training. Passengers will not be able to travel to the Silver Line stations, but the trains will carry passengers between East Falls Church and Largo Town Center.
At the start of service, Silver Line trains will run every six minutes during peak hours and every 12 to 20 minutes during off-peak times.
Metro took control of the new rail line from the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, which is overseeing construction of the Silver Line, in late May but, at that time, there was still a list of things MWAA and its contractor needed to achieve.
Sarles said that there are still outstanding items from that task list, including work required to obtain certificates of occupancy. However, he expects everything will be complete in time for the July 26 opening.
The airports authority is now focused on contstruction of the second phase of the Silver Line, which will extend rail service to Washington Dulles International Airport and into Loudoun County. The second phase is expected to be complete in mid 2018.

When we think of summer, we think about the beautiful coast of Atlantic Beach at its finest. Whether you choose to enjoy a picnic on the beach, go surfing or kayaking on the Atlantic Ocean or unwind at The Spa with views of the rolling surf, summer has never looked so good.

We are excited to announce that The Spa at One Ocean has been recognized as a Top 100 U.S. Resort Spa in Condé Nast Traveler's 2013 Readers' Poll!

While we are fortunate to have gorgeous weather year-round here in Atlantic Beach, we know some of our friends elsewhere are itching for a taste of the spring season. As the warmer months approach, it's time to start thinking about spring cleaning. Before you start cleaning out the garage or dusting the attic, we suggest you start with yourself.
"In Atlantic Beach, we know that March means it's already flip fop season, and residents are more than ready to kick off those winter boots," said Spa Director of One Ocean Resort & Spa, Beverly Fox-Crismond. "Our 'Wake Me Up Buttercup' spring spa series does just that, shaking our skin out of its winter hibernation and getting guests ready for another season of sunshine here on the coast."
Throughout the month of March, The Spa at One Ocean is offering guests more than 20 percent savings with the new "Wake Me Up Buttercup Treatments." Blending an elegant mix of refreshing sea salts and warm fluorescent-infused oils, these treatments are ideal for cleaning yourself up and getting ready for spring.
With the "Wake Me Up Buttercup Pedicure," citrus grass-scented sea salts combined with a rice bran oil scrub exfoliate weather worn toes while a creamy whole milk foot soak smoothens and locks in moisture. Once your feet are in tip top shape, the "Wake Me Up Buttercup Body Bliss" takes care of the rest. Beginning with a warm drizzle of agave nectar oil, soft stones are massaged into the neck and shoulders. The relaxation continues with a breath of fresh air as a citrus infused shea-butter cream is lightly applied to the entire body, leaving a soft and refreshed feeling from head to toe.
So ditch the vacuum and duster- buster for awhile and treat yourself. After all, the garage can wait!

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - An attorney for Amy Senser has urged the Minnesota Court of Appeals to overturn his client's conviction for criminal vehicular homicide.
A three-judge panel heard arguments Wednesday a year after a jury convicted Senser in the death of a Minneapolis chef.
Senser's attorney, Eric Nelson, argued it's possible to infer that Senser didn't know she struck Anousone Phanthavong on a freeway ramp that night.
Nelson noted that Senser left her SUV in the driveway when she got home. He says such behavior is inconsistent with knowing you killed someone.
Senser is nine months into a 41-month prison sentence. She did not attend the hearing but her husband, former Minnesota Viking Joe Senser, was in the courtroom.
The Star Tribune reports the panel has three months to rule.
