Patented Oct. '5, 1937 UNITED STATES COMPOSITION OF MATTER SUITABLE FOR A DENTIFRICE Paul Poetschke, Bronxville, N. Y.
No Drawing. Application April 4, 1936, 7
Serlal No. 72,749
6 Claims. (Cl. 167-93) This invention relates to a composition of. matter, suitable for a dentifrice and is herein disclosed as a powder, yielding a cleansing mixture which may be neutral in reaction when added to water.
A good dentifrice must be non-caustic to the gums and mucous membrane, free from decalcifying or scratching action on the teeth, and non-poisonous. It further must not inhibit the 10 secretion of saliva nor alter the reaction of the saliva, must be an efficient cleaner, must have an acceptable taste, and should be antiseptic and a deodorant.
Some of these desired qualities are inherent in all dentifrices but all the many dentifrices commercially available are unsatisfactory in that they lack or are seriously deficient in one or more of the desired properties. It has been supposed, for example, that the oxygen-yielding chemical perborate of soda might form the basis of a nearly perfect dentifrice, but it has been found that a substantial percentage of people are supersonsitive to sodium-perborate and are "chemically burned by it. Moreover, it has not been found to be satisfactorily antiseptic when used unintelligently as a mouth wash. Various objections to its indiscriminate use are set forth in Journal of American Dental Association for October, 1935,
beginning on page 1761.
Sodium perborate has also been found under some conditions of. climate to cause objectionable caking and even liquefying hitherto used.
According to the present invention the foregoing and other objections are overcome and a safe and harmless preparation is obtained which cleans and whitens the teeth, deodorizes the breath, polishes the teeth without scratching the enamel, yet cannot injure the mucous membrane nor alter the salivary secretion.
Other features and advantages will hereinafter appear.
In the form of the invention described herein in some detail a powder is prepared carrying alkali metal perborate usually sodium perborate, and a mono-basic phosphate of an alkaline earth metal.
To avoid the possibility of caking, the perborate of soda may be used in the form of the monohydrate instead of the ordinary perborate of soda which contains four molecules of water. It is found that the mono-hydrate is stable in the presence of these acid salts, free from caking and also dissolving readily.
When perborate of soda dissolves in water it of some preparations ordinarily forms the highly corrosive caustic soda which causes many of the ills enumerated in the magazine referred to above. In the presence of these acid salts the caustic soda is neutralized at once.
The mono-basic phosphates of the alkaline earth metals, when neutralized by the caustic soda, form colloidal or amorphous precipitates adapted to serve as a cleaning or polishing agent. Monocalcium phosphate has been found highly serviceable for all these purposes. It reacts immediately in water with the caustic soda formed neutralizing it and the proportions of p;rborate and phosphate are easily adjustableto produce a mixture of any desired acidity or alkalinity, or a neutral mixture. Thus the pH value of 6. to 6.64 of saliva is easily matched.
Dissolved in water the calcium phosphate and perborate yield a milky fluid, containing hydrogen peroxide, compounds of boron, and phosphates. The commercial perborate and commercial phosphates vary slightly from the theoretical formulas established for these substances and it will be found advisable to adjust the proportions of phosphate and perborate.
It is found that the taste is improved by adding about four per cent of. salt, and further made agreeable to many people by adding a fraction of a per cent of soluble saccharin and a little more oil of peppermint. One very satisfactory powder was made of the following materials:
Parts Monocalcium phosphate 58 Monohydrated sodium perborate 40 Common salt 4 Soluble saccharin Oil of peppermint 1 Such a mixture may also include an added suitable polishing agent for teeth to supplement the above-described precipitated calcium phosphate. Among suitable agents to add are certain kinds of calcium carbonate and phosphate, of magnesium carbonate and phosphate, amorphous silica and amorphous aluminum hydrate.
It has also been found possible to substitute anyhydrous sodium perborate for the mono-hydrate in equi-molecular proportions with almost equally good results.
Having thus described certain embodiments of the invention, what is claimed is:
1. A composition suitable for use as a dentifrice including an alkali metal perborate and a monobasic phosphate of an alkaline earth metal.
2. A composition suitable for use as a denti- {rice consisting principally otan alkali metal .perborate and a monobasio phosphate oian ,al-
kaline earth metal;
- 3. A composition suitable .for, use as adenti-- frice including an alkali metal 'perborate anda monobasic phosphate of an alkaline earth metal,
said composition containing sufl'lcient of the.- monobasic phosphate to insure theliberation of substantially an of the available oxygen in the perborate in aqueous media;
.siiflioient of the monobasio phosphate to insure the liberation of substantiallyall of the availableoxygen in the perborate in aqueous media.
-.5. A composition suitable for use as adentl-- friee including sodium perborate and-monocalcium acid phosphate.
-.6. A. composition suitable toi' use as a dentirice including sodium perborote' andmonocabcium acid phosphate, said composition contain ing suflioient acid phosphate to insure the libera- 'tion of substantially all of the available oxygenin the perborate in aqueous media.

WASHINGTON, June 10, 2008 The Public Relations Society of America honored the Defense Department's New Media directorate with four "Silver Anvil" awards at a gala in New York City on June 5.
The DoD New Media team took the top honor in the internal communications category for associations, government agencies and nonprofit organizations, winning the Silver Anvil for the "Check It" internal management controls campaign. The team also received second-place trophies in the community relations, issues management and integrated communications categories.
"I'm excited to see the Department of Defense communications team recognized by their peers from the civilian public-relations community," said Robert T. Hastings, principal deputy assistant secretary of defense for public affairs. "It validates that people working for the government are on the cutting edge."
DoD New Media launched the winning "Check It" campaign with the department's internal management controls program in 2007 to remind the defense community of the importance of double-checking their work to make sure it's done right.
"We wanted to get a broad message out about good stewardship, so we turned to this incredible communications team to help us with the broader campaign to get the message out," Pentagon Comptroller Tina Jonas said.
After the campaign, which touted the tagline "Check It: What Gets Checked, Gets Done," the department's material weaknesses were reduced from 116 to only 18, Jonas said. Officials define a material weakness as a deficiency in internal controls.
"The campaign helped the work force think of the job in a positive way, instead of getting negative messages," Jonas said. "I'm so proud of not only the work done to receive the awards, but for the well-being and effectiveness of our overall program."
Air Force Lt. Col. Francisco Hamm, the "Check It" communications manager from DoD New Media, cited effective collaboration with Peggy Johnson, management internal controls program manager, and participation by other internal controls managers in the campaign as the reason for its success.
"We had a great working partnership with the DoD comptroller's office, and one of the key components to the success of the program was having 2,000 active internal control managers worldwide engaged in the campaign," Hamm said.
The Public Relations Society of America's Silver Anvil Awards are widely recognized as the nation's premier awards for public relations practices. This year's winners were selected out of a record 875 entries from the private sector, government and nonprofit organizations.
Jeffrey Julin, the 2008 chair and chief executive officer of PRSA, said the "Check It" campaign stood out among the competition because of its effect on DoD as an organization. "I'm so impressed at the demonstration of the impressive campaign to drive organizational change," Julin said.
DoD New Media Director Roxie Merritt said she is pleased at the New Media directorate's showing at the 2008 Silver Anvil Awards, especially since the directorate has only existed since October 2006.
"To be acknowledged by our peers in the public relations industry for our efforts to communicate to our globally dispersed audiences in the ever-changing media landscape is a big honor," Merritt said.
Joice Truban Curry, the PRSA 2008 Silver Anvil chair, shared Merritt's sentiment. "There are so many campaigns in the private sector [that DoD New Media] was competing against, that to win four awards at the Silver Anvils is second to none."

"You know formalities are good things sometimes. They are like fences to keep intruders out and hedges to keep in the sacred and beautiful things of life." ~~ Grace Livingston Hill

Teachers of good things
Titus 2: 1-5
But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:
That the aged men be sober grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.
The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, *teachers of good things;*
That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
"teachers of good things"
It struck me today while reading this passage that the small part of the sentence in verse 3 could, in reality, sum up the rest of the passage directed toward ladies. When one thinks on it, those four little words are heavy with meaning and responsibility. Really, the entirety of our lives are to be such that we are teachers of good things. Our homes, our attitudes, our habits, our appearance, the ~very essence of who we are and how we live~ should to those close to us and to the casual observer alike teach good things.
Ladies, the girls and young women emerging into adulthood need us more now than ever before! I know there is nothing new under the sun (Eccl. 1:9) but the enemy has had women and the home targeted these past 2-3 generations in earnest. If we are to become a people that once again holds the home up as the Lord would have us to, we must take the responsibilities given to us in Titus 2 to heart.
Just as women have been taught by the secular world that they are to find their fulfilment outside of the home, we must wholeheartedly teach that they can/will find their fulfilment within the home and family that God has blessed them with! Some young ladies are not raised by mothers who will teach them these things. If they then cannot look to Christian women to learn these lessons then whom, may I ask, is going to teach them?
For some women certain things come naturally. I daresay the to the majority of women mothering is one of those things. To others, household chores and cleaning is their specialty and it comes as easily as breathing. But these things do not simply come to some young ladies and all things certainly do not come easily to anyone. We all have areas we struggle with. This is why it is so important that the skills of homemaking, mothering and Godly council are taught to girls and most especially to young wives.
I have heard so many times that we are to teach and learn these things by example. And yes, that is so true. But honestly, in our time women cannot learn by example as effectively as in times past. Let me explain what I mean. There was once a time when most families lived either with each other or within close proximity to each other. Extended family was all around and a part of everyday life. If a young wife wanted to see what a Godly marriage and home looked like as an example to model her own after, she needed only to look across the room or next door. She could learn by example every day of her life! However, in our time, a lot of families live very far apart and our neighbors are strangers. How then is a young bride to learn by example only? See my point?
Of course, the ministry certainly should begin in our homes with our own daughters. But there will also be times when we have the opportunity (...duty?) to reach out to others! Whether this is through your church, your neighborhood or even the Internet matters not. What matters is that when given that opportunity to reach out we recognize it for what it is and seize the teachable moment!
There are so many things one can give a young lady to add to her arsenal of knowledge. Lessons on Biblical womanhood can include things such as; making time for daily Bible study, teaching children Bible lessons, time management, menu planning, cleaning & organizational methods, cooking, pantry stocking, gardening, sewing, needlepoint, book suggestions, budgeting, the list could go on and on.
Every teachable moment does not have to be a formal 'sit down while I impart my wisdom' event. There are many ways to make things fun. One of my favorite things for a new bride is a Pantry Shower. It's like a wedding shower but (in my opinion) much more practical. Everyone invited brings a pantry staple item (or more - however many they want to bring!) Since these things are generally not expensive, most people don't mind getting multiple items. These can include spices, flours, dry goods - any and all pantry staples. In addition to these, everyone also submits ahead of time some of their favorite recipes. Alot of people will choose to purchase the pantry items needed for the recipes they are giving. The hostess will collect all the recipes and put them in a book for the bride. By the time the shower is over she will have a cookbook full of recipes with a pantry full of everything she needs to make them!
That is just one example of how to impart some homekeeping skills in a fun manner. But however you decide to do it - please, please do it as the future of our homes depends on the next generation of women learning these skills! We must impart the joy of the quiet pleasures of home. We must be "teachers of good things."
May God bless you all as you bless your households.

Hi, Mrs. V,
Thanks for you beautiful and encouraging blog. As a man, it concerns me to see young ladies buying into the idea that the world's way is the only way. Thanks for being a light of truth in the darkness!
I'm also writing to tell you about a project I'm working on. It's a collection of Thank You Stories, to
be published in a book titled I Never Got to Thank You.
I would love to include one of your Thank You Stories.
You can read about the project on my post:
If you like what you read, I would also be very grateful if you would pass on my link to anyone else
you're comfortable with -- even if you don't write a Story yourself. My goal is to collect 100 Stories by March 31st, but that date is certainly not a cut-off. Everyone is welcome to contribute a Story -- or more than one!
Thank you for reading.
Blessings to you!

This is my first time here, via Michele's at Cherish the Home, I can already tell that yours will become a favorite.
This was such a good post.It is my conviction as well, but can I say it is difficult to be in a world where the younger women, wives do not want to e *hear it* and it is not being taught in the churches as well, you feel like you are swimming upstream.

Palace Talks Signing with Record Machine and New LP Summer, Don't You Dare
"She's amazing at the dramatic side of the band," says Grooms. "She freaking nailed 'We Want More.' Kavanaugh describes the song in the starkest way: "There is trumpet blaring, me screaming and Crystal is just laughing." The track features the chorus just once before it launches into a reprise that allows Hill to play percussion on electric and acoustic drums, in Kavanaugh's words, "like Super Smash Brothers."
"I used a tape delay on that," Hill says, satisfying himself that the fly is truly dead by brushing it off the table and digresses. "I really like incorporating electronic drums -- and the idea of using electric and acoustic. One drummer using two sets of sounds."
Palace will celebrate the release of Summer, Don't You Dare on Thursday, July 25, at Plush. "A live show is just so vital for us. We go nuts," Grooms states. Palace plans on bringing back former members Sydney Scott and Jamie Finch for select songs during the record-release show as well, in addition to adding surprise covers among the stacked setlist. Grooms continues, "For us to throw a record release show at Plush, a place we've never played before, is exciting. And it's a large space, it's a challenge. We want to fill that space with energy and creativity and just have a party -- just have a good time."
Eaker ruminates on what it means to play at Plush for Palace's record-release show, "We've all seen bands we love at Plush. It's definitely sacred battlegrounds for people you greatly admire. You have to bring that same intensity. You have to think that it's a bigger deal than just going up to play a show. It brings a whole new aspect. I want to put on the best show I can because I know so many good bands have played in that same spot where we're all standing. The fact that it is the album release? It's finally happening and it is all going to be brought."
Palace Record Release show with La Guerre and Beth Bombara. Thursday, July 25. 8 p.m. $7. Below is a finished track off of Summer, Don't You Dare, courtesy of Palace.

Crash slows traffic on Interstate 64
BARBOURSVILLE — A multi-vehicle accident slowed traffic on Interstate 64 Sunday afternoon near the 18 mile marker in Barboursville.
Four vehicles were involved in an accident in the westbound lane about 3:30 p.m. Sunday.
"A small pickup trick hit a little blue Toyota and sent it airborne from the westbound lane over the median barrier," said Lt. W.W. Adkins of the Barboursville Police Department.
It landed in the median, he said. In the meantime, another vehicle hit the pickup truck and then hit a fourth vehicle, Adkins said. Traffic was narrowed to one lane in both directions of Interstate 64 as emergency crews responded and the vehicles were towed.
No one was hospitalized as a result of the accident.
"EMS came and checked everybody, but nobody was transported. ... Nothing was life-threatening," Adkins said.
Cabell County EMS and the Barboursville Police and Barboursville Volunteer Fire Department responded.

AAPT chief Paul Broad has reportedly been offered the lead job at Infrastructure NSW by the new Liberal state government.
The Sun Herald reported the poaching attempt yesterday.
Broad was understood to have been offered a salary of $350,000 a year - commensurate with other NSW public sector salaries but a fraction of what he earned at AAPT.
In the past financial year, Broad received from AAPT a base salary of just on $1 million and bonuses of a further $1 million (of which $700,000 was earned in 2009 but paid last year).
According to Telecom New Zealand's 2010 Annual Report, Broad was on a fixed-term contract with AAPT due to expire on 1 July 2011.
Broad was experienced at leading utilities. His background included roles at utilities Sydney Water, Energy Australia and PowerTel.
When PowerTel was bought out by AAPT in 2007, Broad was named AAPT's chief.
Broad presided over last year's sale of AAPT's consumer business to ISP iiNet, a move that AAPT saw as allowing the company to refocus on its core communications business.

Their kids want to play so parents and others are joining the effort to bring back modified sports in West Irondequoit.
The teams were cut after the District failed to get enough votes to override the governor's imposed tax cap. That means the district has to operate on a contingency budget this year but parents aren't giving up on the fight for these sports.
Tonight, a group of kids hoping to be able to play sports this upcoming school year will gather to learn from the school athletic director whether or not they've raised enough money.
Kids and parents in Irondequoit have been fund-raising for more than a month trying to reach $48,000 to bring back one of each modified sports team.
Funding was cut when voters in the district failed to reach a super majority on the vote in two separate budgets. Since then, the community took matters into its own hands, putting together kickball tournaments and online fundraisers, working to come up with the money so kids enjoy playing sports.
An update will be given at 6:30 p.m.

He's the most self-confident coach in the NFL. No doubt about that...
Bob, I have no doubt in my mind you'd give Don Draper a run for his money. I'd love to have been a fly on the wall of that newsroom.
I think the dichotomy of option from inside and outside State College is absolutely amazing.
I've honestly never been this excited for a movie, which began a discussion amongst my older friends -- what was the movie they were most excited to see. Got some really great answers, including The Return of the Jedi.
I mean this is outrageous. Rules are rules, but to pull the plug on Rock N Roll royalty and a once-in-a-lifetime experience is just inexcusable.
He's not the only South Jersey product to make it big recently. Guys like Andrew Bailey (Paul IV, Haddon Heights) and Joe Flacco (Audubon) have also had success. It's great to see so many South Jersey guys making headlines.
Not enough F's here. Manuel and Victorino deserve failures for sure. Can you think of anything substantive Victorino has contributed this season?
Great story, yet again, Bob. And you're absolutely right -- you get to know guys in a special way when you play cards with them.
OMG, Jim. P3ople do this bc it saves time & time is $
I completely agree. Very kid-friendly and no pie tops Manco and Manco -- and I know for a fact neither Matt nor I work there.
Not legally speaking, but from a common sense perspective, how does this guy keep posting bail? I mean he is going to hurt someone and that seems like a completely preventable tragedy.
I'd like to ask why the NBA Draft was in Newark, a city the league just vacated? Was this like when ex's meet for coffee to catch up? Just weird to me.
I think my first rule would be to panic. After that, all bets are off.
Definitely has to be Flying Fish Exit 4. I totally recommend the brewery tour. You can't tour the Cherry Hill location anymore, but tours in the new Somerdale location are supposed to be available later this year.
The fact he's third is only slightly less ridiculous than Ryan Howard being fifth among first baseman. I understand the popular vote is a way to involve the fans, but some of the results are just crazy.
I agree, Michelle. What a shame. This is a locally born and grown company outsourcing jobs away from the area. Best of luck to those affected by the layoffs

If I make it to Monday I will have covered all 16 national title games in the Bowl Championship Series era.
Someone, please, blow a kazoo.
It's been one crazy ride between Tennessee playing Florida State at the Fiesta Bowl in 1998 and this week's final call BCS game in the Rose Bowl.
Did the BCS work?
Of course it did. The BCS exponentially increased college football's popularity and took a regional sport and made it national.
It made people in Tuscaloosa, Ala., care about a game in Eugene, Ore., and, most years, matched the two most deserving schools in a "title" game.
Did the BCS work?
Of course it didn't. It gave us colossal controversies because of a standings formula that had to be changed more than a baby's diaper.
One year, it left the No.1 team in both polls out of the game and, another year, the No. 2 team. Both schools were from the Pac-10 (now 12).
The BCS became the most hated acronym after "IRS."
If the BCS was so good we wouldn't be going to a four-team playoff next season, right?
With Florida State and Auburn preparing for the last BCS title game, it's time to blow out 16 candles.
Here are my top memories (not all of them great).
16. Miami vs. Nebraska, playing in the "Rose Bowl," in 2002, two days after the parade, on a Thursday night. You needed infrared lenses to see the San Gabriel Mountains.
It was an Orange Bowl, not a Rose. Yuck.
15. Last year, before the game, sitting in South Florida's Sun Life Stadium before Alabama vs. Notre Dame.
I fixed binoculars on Alabama during warmups. Man, the Crimson Tide looked like an NFL team. Then I watched Notre Dame warm up. Man, the Irish looked like a college team. If I was a gambler I would have called my bookie and bet the house on Alabama.
Final score: Alabama 42, Notre Dame 14.
14. Oregon safety Eddie Pleasant making a great tackle on Auburn's Michael Dyer in the closing moments of the 2010 championship in Arizona. So why was Dyer allowed to get up and run for a 37-yard gain? Because, like a cat, he somehow twisted free without touching down. Dyer's run set up Wes Byrum's game-winning field goal as time expired.
13. Oregon Coach Chip Kelly, after losing to Auburn on that last-second field goal, promising everyone at University of Phoenix Stadium his Ducks would be back. Oregon has never been back and Kelly is now coaching the Philadelphia Eagles.

CHARLESTON — Any resolution of the disputes over a $35 million South Carolina cruise terminal in Charleston still appears well in the future.
U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel signed a scheduling order last week setting a November trial date for a lawsuit challenging a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit for the project. If the dispute isn't settled out of court, Gergel has told the parties to be ready for trial on or after Nov. 4.
That would be still another delay for the terminal announced several years ago. At the time, the South Carolina State Ports Authority announced plans to create the terminal in a renovated warehouse and officials said they hoped it might be in operation by 2012.
"We look forward to an expeditious resolution of the case so that progress on the terminal and the implementation of the Union Pier Concept Plan can continue," Allison Skipper, a spokeswoman for the authority, said Tuesday.
Once the terminal is built in the warehouse upriver, the authority plans to turn its attention to redeveloping 35 acres of waterfront near its existing aging terminal, reknitting it with the city and removing warehouses and fences that cordon off the area.
But the project has been slowed by both state and federal lawsuits brought by opponents of the city's expanding cruise industry.
Gergel is hearing a case originally brought in Washington, D.C., last summer by the Preservation Society of Charleston and the South Carolina Coastal Conservation League. The plaintiffs said the case was of national importance and should be heard there.
The suit seeks to invalidate a U.S. Corps of Engineers permit allowing the State Ports Authority to renovate the warehouse. The plaintiffs said there should be more federal review of effects on the city's historic district. A judge in Washington transferred the case to U.S. District Court in Charleston.
Environmental groups and others also plan to challenge a Department of Environmental Control permit issued last month allowing piers to be driven below the warehouse for an elevator for the new terminal.
An attorney with the Southern Environmental Law Center said Tuesday an appeal will be filed Feb. 11 with the state Administrative Law Court. Generally, resolving an issue through the Administrative Law Court can take three or four months. Then, depending on the judge's decision, either party can then take their case to state court.
South Carolina environmental regulators issued that permit in December, saying that the project complies with state law and doesn't change what has been happening on the waterfront of a city that has been a port for centuries.
Three years ago, Carnival Cruise Lines permanently based its 2,056-passenger liner Fantasy in Charleston, giving the city a year-round cruise industry. Before that, the city only had seasonal cruises.
Opponents said the added tourists, traffic congestion and smoke from the cruise liners are destroying the historic fabric of the city.

This is not the most important thing in the world. Or, maybe it is. As part of its marketing campaign for "Man of Steel, Warner Brothers Studios is pushing the movie with Christian pastors. The studio invited them to screenings. It made Christian-themed trailers. It drafted sermon notes: "How might the story of Superman awaken our passion for the greatest hero who ever lived and died and rose again?"
And it's sort of working:
Baltimore pastor Quentin Scott is among dozens of ministers who received an e-mail invitation from Grace Hill Media, a Hollywood-based Christian marketing firm, to an early screening of "Man of Steel."
"There was an actual push to say `We're putting out something that speaks to your group,' " said Scott, one of the pastors of Shiloh Christian Community Church in Baltimore.
At first, Scott said, he didn't buy the religious pitch. Then he decided to attend a free midweek screening in Baltimore.
"When I sat and listened to the movie I actually saw it was the story of Christ, and the love of God was weaved into the story," said the pastor.
I wouldn't want to begrudge Christian pastors a hook for a Sunday sermon; it's hard coming up with fresh ideas. And of course, there is a Christian subtext to Superman. He has supernatural powers. He has a human form but is not wholly of this earth. He always does the right thing. He is a role model. Jews were instrumental in his creation.
But almost any superhero scenario can be viewed as Christian allegory; Superman was merely the first. Watch recent superhero movies such as "The Dark Knight Rises" or "The Green Lantern" or even "Iron Man III." They all call on the hero to make seemingly impossible sacrifices before "rising" again. The hero is the only one able or willing to make such sacrifices for the good of all. [Spoiler alert!] Even Captain Kirk, not even a superhero, heroically dies to save his crew and is then literally resurrected in "Star Trek Into Darkness."
What's troubling about this is the seamless connection being forged between mass marketing and spirituality, the exploitation of Christian themes to put more money in the pockets of Time Warner Time Warner. WWJD? I don't think it's spending Saturday night looking for spiritual nourishment in "Man of Steel." Among other things, the movie features thundering scenes of mass destruction in which, presumably, tens of thousands die with barely a nod from Superman himself.
"South Park" lampooned the Jesus-as-superhero idea more than a decade ago with the Super Best Friends: Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha, Moses, Joseph Smith, Krishna, Laozi and Sea Man (the last an "Aquaman" knockoff, constantly ragged upon). Do we really want to lump Jesus in the same category as Aquaman? Hasn't He suffered enough? Since then, the episode's depiction of Muhammad has rendered it impossible to air for fear of reprisal. And Hollywood has taken the rest and made it into a reality.

One of the most publicized and probably the most gimmicky feature in Ice Cream Sandwich/Galaxy Nexus is the Face Unlock feature. Unlocking your phone by just bringing your face in front of your phone is definitely cool and geeky on paper, but is quite a bit impractical in real life.
Ever since Google's announcement, quite a few apps have popped up in the Android Market that brings the Face Unlock feature to Android handset running Gingerbread.
FaceLock for Apps takes Face Unlock to the next level. As its name of the app suggests, the app protects all the other apps installed on your phone and will only open them when it detects the face of the user. The free version of the app allows users to protect only one app, apart from the pre-defined ones. The app also locks down the Settings menu of your phone so that no one can uninstall the app.
Below is a video of FaceLock for Apps in action -:
FaceLock for apps works with Android 2.3 and Android 4.0 devices, and the developer is also working hard on adding support for handsets running Android 2.2. Keep in mind that if your Android phone has a poor front-facing camera, then the app will struggle to work properly. In addition, Face Unlock is ultimately just a gimmick, and does not offer foolproof security.
A free as well as a paid version of FaceLock for apps is available on the Android Market. Here is the link to the free version of the app.

Feedbackula - GTA Online Angry Time!
Rockstar have revealed some delicious details about GTA Online, but as Seb finds out this week, even the best isn't good enough for some angry folks.

Johnny wades through the very best (and worst) of your comments to find out what's getting the gaming community talking.
Schedule: Fridays at 12pm PT
Host: Johnny Chiodini
rofl nice nipples
Imagonn just say it. I avoid forums outside of PC which can get me into trouble some times when I want to post about say, Anne Hathaway's catwoman. "You can't post it here! That's not PC stuff!" To which I say, "Fine. But what if I don't care about what non-pc gamers think about anything?" So, yes, I suppose I am a quiet card-carrying member of the PC Gaming Glorious Master Race. BUT, I got to talk. Clearly, a multiplayer world in GTA should allow more than 16 players. GTA is all about a living breathing world. Multiplayer should be a living breathing world but because console technology can't handle it, we are going to get something great but not PERFECT. Fr*ckin' consoles.
I don't even own a 360 or PS3, but this game makes me very excited!
nice nipples dude!
It's good to see a gaming journalist so "perky" about his job...
Is it me or does Seb remind you of the Going for Gold host
Henry Kelly?
Where the FUCK IS Johnny? this only fun with him!
Ok, I see an ad, it says FEEDBACKULA with JOHNNY CHIODINI!!!! NOT MISTER NIPPLES!!!! I am suing for false advertising. I will pave the way for a new future of digital false advertising suits and at the end when all of the falsely advertised product owners ask me why.......WHY IN GODS NAME WHY.... I will say rite here bitches. Mister erect nipple man who just got done taking a piss, that felt so good it made his nipples hard, masquerading as the late Johnny Chitforbrains. Fix this now.
Good show.
Imagine Seb and Johnny making out.
Those nipples are just.... staring at me...
16 players only for MP seems like it must be due to a tech limit. I would think this will be fixed with NextGen and Rockstar and the consoles will get boatloads of duplicate buys because of this.
good episode
is it me or is Seth getting sexier :D
must be the yummy accent :P
LOL the comments LOL, but 16 players... LAME, thats consoles for yah
now excuse me as i go join....
Nipples. All I could think of.
I love Feedbackula such a great show and I love gamespot :)
PC BETTER have more than 16 players for or ELSE!!
I'm so glad none of my comments on GameSpot have ever been posted on this show. Hope I didn't jinx myself.
heist? payday 2!
But, but, but, but I want the god damn real GTA feeling when I play this not some Sims City wanna be, I call bullshit on this one.
HOW are people pissed about this?
its baffling
what the hell is a pound?
oh man they put seth and his perky nipples in this episode
What the nipple?
Is it cold in the room or is he just excited?
You literally have to be a spoiled little bitch to not like GTA V online.
i feel like most games released in 2013 were completely out of it
why am i such an outcast
thats why i havent even updated my 8800 (coupled with i7 3770k for you haters)
bunch a shit for brain games this year
cant wait for gta 5 though that will be great
hopefully theirs some first person in it just to spice things up
i know i know, fps games do that
and you know why?
because its fucking realistic to do so
no matter how many 12 year olds play it...
please give us console players the option to use first person like in dayz
and check this out
first person in gta 4 mod is shown, pretty awesome huh
Ha good vid. This one damn game is gonna make me break down and get a console. I wish it on pc :(
Good ep of Feedbacula!
Awesome, as always. This just made my day... or night.
I need to feature in one of these Feedbackulas, just to hear what my voice would sound like. :p
I guess it was cold on the Feedbackula set...
GTA V & Online!!
I wouldn't look at it that way. Ever heard the phrase, a black chicken laying a white egg? Just because a parent is incompetent, doesn't mean the child can't be a prodigy.
dat nipple erection dough
"lonely morons with internet trolls". I can't imagine the abominations of children those two would conceive.
this will be the most epic online experience ever! I need to buy internet now...
@vadagar1 Seth? Oh, Seth Forge, that Guy. I think he's at IGN now. Total fox apart from the prolapse.
i think maybe, my paranoia reflex tells me other devs from different companies are pissed because if gta succeeds
you wont really want to play other racing games and such since gta online is implementing so many things
you know its about time somebody did anyway
finally make a game that is quite vibrant, very and at the same time be able to add more content freely after release
i hope its not charged dlc, they should make a standpoint against ripping consumers off with expensive cheaply made content that doesnt last very long
take cod and many other games, their dlc almost as expensive as buying a 1 or 2 year old videogame that has way more content and play time!
of course rockstar is not cheap but it would be nice for a change
heck id pay extra 10 bux so insteady of 60 make it 70
i do hope from the lastest mp trailer that what they meant when adding things meant adding new activities completely new ideas to the game, not just variety in gamemodes or small changes
@Arther-la-Blunt Half of a two pound fish.
@Arther-la-Blunt the British dollar
@Antonio Stevens it will come on pc. at some pinot. i think it was reported they hired some guys to do the porting
@blaze_boy30 Never cold on game spot news -_-. Seth is just thirsty.
@Maxim Neumann
hey maxim
what do you think about first person for gta 5 at least for driving
you write like a stupid person
nobody like it but you
you should go kill yourself
or eat your own poo
making a point on separate lines is dumb to say the least
It makes me want to punch in your teeth
I'm gonna go now because my point is made
you write like you never graduated from 3rd grade
@Bryjoered07 @drclaw_
okay buddy
chillax its the way i write
are you mad or something wow
even punksterdaddy said it gets peoples attention so there you go
i got your attention lol
I agree
typing this way
really sucks
but it does
get people's
if nothing else.
looks like you enjoy writing poems im glad youve taken my opinions into account, at least somewhat anyway.
good luck gettting any popular reception with them
i highly doubt you will ever receive any monetized success
So keep writing as hard as you can, maybe you will get better...
your poems are the weakest ive seen
i can understand you dont like something but to take it far enough
you are either a troll or you are mentally ill
in that case i pray for you and in this case ill be glad to report you
have a nice day.

Western Park Golf Club fights Leicester City Council's plan to close course
Posted: April 12, 2014|
More than 2,500 people have signed a petition calling for a council-run golf course to be kept open.
Golfers who use the Leicester's Western Park course fear it will be shut down and parts sold off for housing if the city council chooses to stop funding it.
The authority has said it needs to cut £2.9 million from its sport and leisure budget – and golf costs more to subsidise than other sports.
Closing Western Park and the city's other public golf course Humberstone Heights would save the council £150,000 a year.
Western Park's assistant secretary Bob Errington said: "So far we have collected 2,500 names and we still have sheets of petitions to come back in.
"It shows the strength of feeling there is to preserve this wonderful golf course.
"It was set up by the council as a course where working men could play golf and is far more affordable than private clubs.
"It would be a great loss if it were to close. There must be another way forward."
A public meeting is being held at the club at 7pm on Monday to discuss the campaign to save the course.
The petition is due to be presented to Leicester West MP Liz Kendall, whose support is being sought.
As previously reported by the Mercury, players at Humberstone Heights, which also faces closure, have collected more than 1,800 signatures on their own petition and have the backing of MP Keith Vaz.
Mr Vaz said he would "use every muscle" to keep the club open.
A consultation is running until April 18, but campaigners have argued the forms sent out by the council seeking people's views are misleading and designed to justify the closures.
City mayor Sir Peter Soulsby said a decision would be made after the consultation.
He has said he has an open mind but stressed the difficult circumstances the council faces due to Government budget cuts.
He said: "The usage of our courses is dropping and the level of subsidy is increased. We have to ask if it is the right thing to spend our money on."

I honestly cameto MenuPAges to grouse about the lobster roll at Ditch Plains , and found the first review sinigng its praises. Oh well, chacun son gout. As for me, I really do think the DP folks should call it "Lobster Textured Roll." There was plenty of lobster alright, but it was so overwhelmed by seasonong (maybe Old Bay) that I could not taste lobster at all. The meat might as well have been tofu. I have to say that with every bite I kept saying "waste of calories and $$$." To make matters worse, the place was overly noisy, the music too loud and the service somewhat impolite in a "hey, dude, what's up" kind of way.

I had the most delicious lobster roll hereit was overflowing with lobster and the lobster itself was really flavorful. Not too much mayo...overall fantastic.

Our waiter, who was running the whole place himself - bar and all - was nice and attentive to the perfect degree. Never felt like he was being fake, and there wasn't a hint of assumption about whether we would leave a big tip or not (one of my friends and I look a bit young and sometimes have this problem when dining out). The food was delicious, seriously, and I had the best white wine of my life there. Now, if only I could remember the name of it... For those that work in the food industry, this is a good place to go, as it's open late, even on off-days

My husband and I wandered into Ditch Plains on Sunday Oct. 19 and had a wonderful experience. We arrived around 3 pm, and the restaurant was not overly crowded, and we were able to get a booth big enough for four without any attitude from the hostess. I had a bloody mary, which was great (although expensive at $12). The crab dip and steak salad are amazing. The waitress/bartender was very attentive but did not hurry us along. All in all, a very pleasant experience, and we will be back!
Posted by disappointed one on 04/12/2008
We had heard this was a fun, upbeat seafood/kid friendly place - we, family of 4, placed our order, we chose 2 of the specials off the board (red snapper for me, fish and chips for my husband) 20 MINUTES LATER , SORRY WE'VE BEEN OUT OF BOTH FOR AWHILE. The S'mores for the kids badly burnt and widly overpriced. Change of waiters mid-stream - both servers equally lackluster. We realized then- this is really a bar - not a restaurant.

I've only been here once but will definitely be back! Loved the crab dip and mozz fritter appetizers. Got the ditch dogs for the table which would have been great if I was hungover.... speaking of which, Good drink selection.
Posted by McLovintheFood on 01/27/2008
I went to Ditch Plains one night with some friends who have gone there before. We had such an amazing time! The food and service were awesome. The ditch dogs are so good! And i washed them down with some gin and pink lemonade! I can't wait to go back!

London 2012: 13,500 Troops To Provide Olympic Security
Up to 13,500 military personnel will help to provide security at the London 2012 Olympic Games, the Ministry of Defence has announced.
Security would be police-led but the military would make a "significant contribution", the MoD said.
Some 5,000 troops will support the police, up to 7,500 will provide venue security and 1,000 will provide logistical support.
Last week, ministers revised the Games security budget from £282m to £553m.
In addition to the 13,500 figure, there will be a 1,000-strong unarmed contingency force ready for deployment in the event of an "Olympics-related civil emergency".
Venue protection
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport said it now estimated 23,700 security staff would be required at Olympic and Paralympic venues next summer, more than double the original estimate of 10,000.
In a written ministerial statement, Defence Secretary Philip Hammond said that the MoD would be increasing the specialist support work during the Games that it routinely provides for the civilian authorities – such as bomb disposal, building search teams and specialist sniffer dogs.
In addition to the 5,000 personnel allocated to that role, some 3,500 would provide venue security.
This figure would rise to 7,500 on peak days during the Olympic Games, he said.
The MoD said the servicemen and women would be on hand across the UK to protect 150 venues and training sites.
And as part of the military's Olympic security role, the Royal Navy's HMS Ocean and HMS Bulwark will also be based at Greenwich, in London, and Weymouth Bay, in Dorset, respectively.
Specialist skills
Mr Hammond told the BBC that the Games were "the biggest security challenge this country has faced for decades".
But he added that military deployment during Olympic Games was routine since the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
"This defence contribution is on a similar scale to that deployed at other recent Olympic Games and will contribute to ensuring a safe, secure and enjoyable 2012 Olympics," he said.
"Defence will continue to be able to support current and contingent operations during the Games and my priority will remain the troops we have deployed on operations, including in Afghanistan, before, during and after the Olympics."
Mr Hammond also said the military would split its role into two areas.
"First of all we will be providing the routine military aid to the civil power – helping and supporting the police, with things like special forces, bomb disposal capability, military search capability.

I just knew that I had to send across a message after going through Shiblin's profile on Shaadi.com. So, my first message went out to her on November 13, 2010. I told her the same generic stuff about liking her profile and wanting to know more about her. In a few days she replied back stating that she'd like to know about me as well. This went on for quite sometime and we finally exhanged numbers. I spoke to her over the phone one evening and our conversation lasted for a couple of hours.
By then, I already knew that she's the one for me and I felt like I've known her for eternity. Seriously, I believe now when people say "they knew this person was the one." Without delaying things too much, we got our parents involved and our marriage date was finalized. We tied the knot on March 3, 2011 in Bangalore. It just seems like a fairytale to me, when I think about it now.
Thanks a lot Shaadi.com for helping me find my angel without whom I fail to function normally.

School Art In Pride Park
Keep Manatee Beautiful in partnership with the Manatee County Sheriff's Office Crime Prevention Unit, Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, the School District of Manatee County and the Southeast Residents Association is implementing that last part of its 2011-2012 Keep America Beautiful Graffiti Hurts Grant of $2,500, plus a grant match from Keep Manatee Beautiful of $2,500. Theyve teamed up to do School Art In Pride Park. Teachers and their student artists from five public schools in the Pride Park and Ten Oaks neighborhoods have designed art concepts of what their neighborhood means to them. Their goal is to beautify their neighborhood, so as to develop pride and sense of place reflective of their overall communitys quality of life.
Participating schools are Abel Elementary School, Daughtrey Elementary School, Oneco Elementary School, Harllee Middle School and Southeast High School. Gift certificates to restaurants and shops, plus a pizza party will be given to participating teachers and their student artists.
Daughtrey Elementary School, Oneco Elementary School and Harllee Middle School will be painting their concepts on the graffiti-plagued white fence that runs parallel to 9th Street East in between just north of 63rd Avenue East this Saturday on October 6th.
The other schools will work to complete their art concepts on this white fence by National Night Out in Pride Park, an event scheduled for October 19th to reinforce confidence and promote ownership of their neighborhoods.
Other partners include the Manatee County Utilities Dept. Solid Waste-Recycling Section who donated 45 gallons of the paint that was collected at the landfill. Faith Bradburn Keller, an award winning artist and graduate of Ringling College of Art and Design, painted last weekend abstract waves on every other section of this white fence to connect each schools art concepts.
Other activities done with this 2011-2012 Keep America Beautiful Graffiti Hurts Grant have been:
- Purchasing painting supplies for graffiti paint-out days and community paintbrush murals that are rarely defaced by graffiti and instill a sense of pride among those who live nearby.
- Coordinating a Graffiti Hurts Poster Contest and displaying the poster art on bus bench backs near the participating schools.
- Purchasing water-wise trees across the street from this graffiti-plagued white fence.
- Purchasing supplies to educate youth gang members about a more productive lifestyle.
- Coordinating with community leaders to encourage their Neighborhood Watch Program and Intelligence submissions that play a critical role in fighting drugs.

Thank God there are other people in Illinois that think like I do. As a lifetime member of the NRA I support your viewpoint as I believe that the Illinois taxpayers outside of Chicago also suport your viewpoint.
Just as a side note do the people of Chicago on the "North" side think they would be over run by the thugs? If the thugs would have known any of the "old people" (which I'm one) would have had a concelled carry piece?

These applications or modules, use varying approaches to safeguard the endpoint. One may purchase any combination of these modules to best suit the enterprise's needs. LEMSS unifies the functions of IT operations and security through a single console, server and agent architecture to seamlessly address IT risk and systems management requirements across the enterprise. LEMSS delivers modularly licensed capabilities across anti-virus; patch, configuration and power management; application and device control; and asset management. The solution provides a 'defense-in-depth' approach to endpoint security, ensuring that systems are managed effectively from both an operational and security perspective.
The LEMSS server contains the following components: the Lumension Endpoint Management and Security Suite Application Server and the Lumension Endpoint Management and Security Suite Database Server. System requirements include Windows 2003, Web Edition/SP2, Windows 2008 R2, SQL Server 2005, Express/SP3/SQL Server 2008 R2, IIS 6.0, .NET Framework 3.5, MS internet Explorer 7 and Silverlight. Microsoft Silverlight is required during the installation and when accessing the Installation Manager. If one doesn't have an instance of SQL Server available, the software will load SQL Server 2008 R2, Express Edition. We cannot comment on the installation process as we evaluated this solution in the provider's cloud-based environment. From the documentation, it appears to be fairly straightforward.
Once installed, the LEMSS Agent scans the endpoint for inventory and uploads the scan results to the Lumension LEMSS server. The agent also supports snap-ins for the various Lumension LEMSS modules. By installing these agent modules, functionality can be expanded. The tool uses Windows Firewall and requires users to have file sharing and network discovery enabled so that the endpoints can be discovered by LEMMS. SSL is used for transmitting data between the LEMSS Server and LEMSS Agents.
The asset discovery capability was good and integrated with Active Directory to scan by IP range and import inventory lists from the asset management system. Also, there were multiple ways to get an endpoint in easily. We found the user interface a bit cumbersome to maneuver. It took some time and effort to get through the basic setup of users and policies.
Admins can create as many agent policy sets as desired, and then assign those policies to agents or groups to have all the modules available to configure in the policy based on what has been licensed.
Lumension offers eight-hours-a-day/five-days-a-week standard support included with a subscription or with an active maintenance agreement of all Lumension-licensed products. Premium Support offers all the benefits of standard, plus 24/7 access to experienced, senior-level support engineers, as well as free training at $4.50/node/year. Documentation is plentiful.

DURHAM, N.H.-- The No. 7 ranked University of New Hampshire football team will hold its annual Fall Blue/White Scrimmage on Thu., Aug. 25 at Cowell Stadium. The action is set to begin at 1 p.m.
Admission to the srimmage is free and it offers fans a chance to get a sneak preview of the Wildcats before they fly to California for their season-opener on Sept. 3 at UC Davis.
The scrimmage will also provide fans a chance to see three All-America candidates on the offensive side of the football in sophomore quarterback Ricky Santos (Bellingham, Mass.), junior wide receiver David Ball (Orange, Vt.) and senior tight end Jon Williams (Rochester, N.Y.).
In addition, several local players from the Granite State will be playing key roles for the team once again this season. Senior offensive lineman Tim Carignan (Belmont, N.H.) and sophomore Nick Couturier (Dover, N.H.) are both members of a talented offensive line that returns four starters. Senior defensive end Brent Barbato (Exeter, N.H.) is expected to get the nod for a starting job on the defensive line, as will senior defensive end Keith Sawyer (Concord, N.H.).
Season tickets for all of the Wildcat home football games will be sold at a table on the Cowell Stadium concourse. A limited number of chairback seats are still available for the 2005 campaign. The team will play its first home game on Sept. 24 vs. Dartmouth. Game time is 12 p.m.
The Wildcats are coming off their best season in program history after posting a 10-3 record and advancing to the quarterfinals of the NCAA, I-AA playoffs in 2004. UNH, which took first place in the North Division of the Atlantic 10, posted its first-ever NCAA victory with a first-round upset at Georgia Southern (27-23).

Just posted three entries about Sarah's emceeing/standup gig at the Manifest Hope Exhibition concert August 27, 2008, during the Democratic National Convention in Denver.
TMZ posted December 26 one of their paparazzi confronting Sarah (and an unknown African American woman) on the street about Quentin Tarantino's new movie, Django Unchained (about which Spike Lee has said, "I'm not gonna see it … It's disrespectful to my ancestors."). Here's the full text of their comments, which have gone viral, often skewed as endorsement of using the n-word in film.
TMZ: [Django Unchained] is catching flack from Spike Lee and a lot of other people for using the n-word 110 times they counted. What do you guys think about– how do you feel about that?
SARAH: Doesn't it take place during slavery?
TMZ: Yes, it does.
SARAH: Wouldn't it be odd if they didn't have that horrific word in it?
WOMAN: I saw the movie a couple weeks ago…They did use the n-word a lot, but it was– like– they needed to. They were dead smack in the middle of slavery with lots of bloody, gory violence, and comedy– I mean, this is Quentin Tarantino we're talking about. Why would he take that out and play something safe?
SARAH: I think slave owners said it a lot. That's why it has a stigma still today. Isn't that–
WOMAN: It hurts, though, it's true.
SARAH: But I haven't seen it. But, you know, I love Spike Lee. We were just talking about School Daze. But he's got a lot of mishegoss with a lot of art. I think you can't really tell art what to do. It doesn't really make sense, but I think you know what I'm talking about.
WOMAN: …It makes sense, it makes sense. You can't tell art what to do. You heard it here first, from Sarah Silverman!
Sarah joined Doug Benson (comic of celebrity-frequented "Doug Loves Movies" vidcast fame) in Episode 14 of his foodie podcast series. Settle back, Sarah fans, because it's 95 minutes, including chef Andy Windak teaching a vegan recipe. (Sarah clarifies, "I'm a vegetarian [not a vegan]. I don't eat meat. I don't eat chicken. I've never tried fish, because I have a nose.")
Just posted an appearance we missed: Sarah at a benefit for the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project on October 12, 2011. Includes article and two photos (Sarah quite spiffy).
Sarah's role in the January 2013 "first ever" comedy issue of Vanity Fair is a "letter" to the editor of the VF special issue, Judd Apatow, and accom-panying satirical photo. Vanity Fair posted it 12/14/12 as a preview of the issue, which is on newsstands now.
Dear Judd,
I'd love to help with your magazine project, but I am unable to for several reasons.
I'm really, really busy and really, really popular. So right off the bat, that's a tough squeeze time-wise.
I can't say I'm familiar with this publication, unless it's connected to the super-fancy paper-plate-and-plasticware company I love so much. Still, I'm sure you understand I can't be writing art for a paper-plate-company magazine.
O.K. I just Googled it and I do know this magazine—and as it turns out I have a big beef with them. Whenever they have a young-up-and-coming-movie-starlets-of-tomorrow cover, I'm blatantly snubbed. Am I not good enough to lounge in a vintage gown from the 1930s, lazily draped on a chaise, pretending to be in the same room as 14 other cut-and-pasted actresses in similar garb and furniture and poses? I was born to do that, and this magazine took that from me and continues to take that from me with every passing year. And why? Why am I repeatedly overlooked? Because I'm a polarizing Jew? Or is it because of what we all know but are afraid to say: I'm just too goddamned pretty?
We may never know, but what I do know is this: You will have to do your comedy-issue curating sans me. I hope this doesn't hurt sales too much.
Sarah Jane Anastasia Silverman XIV
PS: Mark Brazill was right.
Having just completed two successful big stand-up appearances in Australia, Sarah has booked a London appearance for February. Tickets go on sale 12/14/12 at 9 a.m. for her February 9 show at the Bloomsbury Theatre. It will be a paperless admission, so to get in you will have to show the credit card you used for the purchase.
Fans will recall that Sarah's last show in London, four years ago, was not well received.

There have been more than a few days which have felt like summer was already here in Park City, but we do have to remind ourselves that it was only winter just a few weeks ago and that many biking and hiking trails need some time to dry out. Until just recently, we've been using snowmobiles and snowcats to access almost all of our upper mountain - everything from our King Shop and up, so I know that we will most likely not have much available for hiking and biking when we open for summer operations on May 24, 2013 - in fact, I recommend checking our Activities Report (updated daily during the summer season) to know for sure what activities are available!
See this photo taken from the Summit Cam on May 15, 2013 to see how much snow there still is by the trail map at the top of Bonanza Lift.
Read this post on the Mountain Trails website for a much better explanation of why we should all avoid travel on muddy trails - it might be fun to get "dirty", but you're actually doing a lot more damage to the trail than you might think. On the Mountain Trails interactive map, there is also a helpful "Conditions" toggle in the menu which shows the current status of trails in the Park City area. This is a great tool, because while it may seem like summer down here in the Park City valley, there will still be pockets of winter for some time to come.

What the circuit refers to is a single 'turn' or completion of workouts that form components of the program.

Turkey Talk: 'Everyday Food' Thanksgiving
Every Thanksgiving we check in with food magazine editors around the country to see how they have gone about putting together their Thanksgiving issues. Everyday Food's editor, Deb Puchalla, gave us some insight into how that Martha Stewart–owned mag does Thanksgiving. How did you approach Thanksgiving at Everyday Food this year? We're five-years-old and we've done tactics and strategies, so this year we wanted to do something with feeling. We looked at different regions of the country for inspiration. So we have warm and fuzzy Southern Thanksgiving that's rich and a little heavy, we thought we would give it some energy. More people are guests than cooks at a Thanksgiving meal, so we wanted to have portable dishes. Myself, I'm... More
