WRSI Helmets
Current Helmet (Vent)
In Stock Product Number: 7774
The Current Helmet by Whitewater Research and Safety Institute is a multi impact helmet designed to fit a variety of head sizes ranging from 54 cm to 59 cm in circumference. With the 'Superior Retention System' and the multiple and removable shims, this helmet feels almost cemented in place. All shims are included so one size and some adjustments will fit most.
The motivation for this project originated from the fatal kayaking accident of Lucas Brandon Turner, who died on the North Fork of the Payette River in Idaho in 1998. The casualty occurred when the helmet he was wearing, got pushed backwards by forceful water and exposed his forehead to a traumatic, and disastrous blow.
His father, Gil Turner, established the Institute of Whitewater Research & Safety as a nonprofit foundation dedicated to making whitewater recreation a safer sport.
The Current Helmet is the result of the 4 year Whitewater Head Impact Protection Project (WWHIP) co-sponsored by the Institute and Johns Hopkins University's Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore, MD.
*The vents are located on the top of the helmet for more comfort.
- Lexan EXL outer shell

GREECE, NY- The bullied bus monitor from Greece had a chance to say a big thank you in person to the stranger who spearheaded an online vacation fund for her. She's also responding to criticism she's received about how she handled herself when students on her bus ruthlessly bullied her.
Life will never be the same for 68-year-old Karen Klein. In a matter of days she went from being a bus monitor in Greece, NY, to having a PR team helping to plan her appearances on the national media circuit. And it's all because a video went viral last week of four middle school boys taunting and tormenting her on the school bus. That led to a stranger from Toronto, Max Sidorov, starting an online fundraiser for her that's now netted more than $660,000.
"It was just disgusting what those kids were saying," said Sidorov, a financial contributor.
Sidorov has spent the last two days with Klein and both say they're still shocked with the outpouring of support.
"I don't think anyone could've expected that, especially me," said Sidorov.
"To have people share their love like that, and their stories. I feel really bad for a lot of them. A lot of them have been bullied," said Klein.
Sidorov plans to use his sudden fame to take a stand in the anti-bullying movement.
"This shows us that violence spans all ages. It can be kids. It can be adults. It can be elderly ladies," said Sidorov.
Klein says she hasn't thought about being anti-bullying activist, but now she can donate to causes close to her heart.
"I was thinking more my granddaughter's got Down Syndrome and my grandson's got autism. I would contribute to those groups," said Klein.
One thing's for sure, she's decided she won't be going back to work for the Greece School District, and it's not just because of her sudden windfall.
"Well, the things that they've said about me. 'Well she didn't do her job.' It doesn't matter that all of this has come up and it's helping people," said Klein.
Reporter: What would you say to members of the public who are saying you shouldn't be getting this money, you weren't doing your job, you should've been more authoritative?
Klein: That's basically what they're saying I guess. I didn't plan this. This wasn't my idea.
Until now, Karen has only received letters from the boys, and just one that she feels is truly heartfelt. She says she'd like to see them face-to-face now.
Reporter: And what would you say to them when you saw them finally?
Klein: Why did this happen? Why did you do it? I just would like an answer.

MariahLittle Town, VirginiaBest I've Tried!This blue goo is amazing! I've been in situations where I've tried waxing that either (a) burnt my skin and left painful blisters, (b) became an overall ADHESIVE to my skin and didn't want to let go, or (c) turned my skin beet red for three days. After trying Azulene, I found it to be (surprisingly) soothing and it was actually comfortable. When I first purchased this wax, it was the night before a big dance at my high school and I was NOT interested in looking like a tomato upon arrival. Thankfully, that never happened. It was an easy application, and it was an easy removal. Little pain. Little redness. I HIGHLY recommend this wax to everyone who wants a less painful experience in waxing (i.e. "first timer's", young adults, etc.) I won't EVER go back to any other wax!

AbbieHairThick or Coarse HairJust So's Ya Know---the Stars Are Because They Made Me. This Is A Positive Comment.Azulene oil is what has made every one of my home wax attempts less painful, immediately upon application. I can only imagine that having Azulene in the wax itself would be even better. I look forward to-really- applying my hunch once i purchase the Azulene wax from GiGi, but in the meantime, I have to give a thumbs up to the Azulene property itself. Anything that makes the hair .......down there....less furry and less painful to get that way, woohoo! Fingers crossed, truly review coming shortly, hopefully.

JenniferBest Wax!I have tried quite a few different types of wax and this is by far the best I have found. It does actually decrease the discomfort of waxing (a little it does not work miracles) and it does a very good job of getting the fine hairs. It also comes off easily (I have had some I swear that bonded with my skin).10 out of 10 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Karima M.Yonkers, New YorkHairBlackCurly HairThick or Coarse HairMy Favorite WaxI had my doubts about this blue goo. However, a visit to well-reputed waxing salon in New York City changed my mind. They used azulene for my Brazilian and I have to say it was the easiest, most pleasant wax I've ever received. The hair comes off with the wax with just one attempt whereas with the harder wax, sometimes you rip and find the wax, hair and part of the strip still on your skin.Ouch! Also,this came off more easily. There was very little residue left over so I didn't suffer the uncomfortable post-wax stickiness.
Part of this amazing wax experience of course was due to the skill of the practitioner. Still, I had to try it at home on my legs see if it worked just as well and was just as painless. I have no idea why but azulene has been the easiest, least messy, least sticky and yet most effective wax I've used. The consistency (when properly warmed) is perfect (when properly warmed) - just thick enough to stick to hair and thin enough to apply thin layers easily. I now look for this wax before any other.24 out of 24 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

"Aaaahhhh!!!! Jay's way better at this sucking up thing than I am!!!!"Elderly Americans may have a reason to celebrate and pound together their leathery, wrinkled, gnarled palms today. TMZ reported this afternoon that the ink is drying on a contract between NBC and Jay Leno for him to take back The Tonight Show. They report that Jay is in and the increasingly-disgruntled Conan O'Brien is out.HOWEVS, The Hollywood Reporter is Hollywood reporting that NBC denies any such contract exists. But what does NBC know and will there be a Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien much longer? Right now, that all depends on which news outlet you trust more; the one that carries an esteemed reputation or the one that posts pictures of dead celebrities. And if Conan is deposed, where will he go? Everyone's saying FOX and they do have an opening since The Magic Johnson Show was canceled, but Nikke Finke reports that Jeff Zucker has plans to "ice" O'Brien with a no-compete clause that would keep him off of any rival network "for 3 1/2 years."Story is developing and I will personally let all the old people in my family know what shakes out. For the meantime, they are to sit in their favorite chair and wear the Snuggie I sent them for Christmas. I'll alert you when it's time to assemble and do the wave.
House and Tron Legacy star Olivia Wilde, like many celebrities, has taken to Twitter to drum up support for the earthquake-ravaged Haiti. Olivia has pledged to send a personalized 'thank you' video to anyone generous enough to donate $200 or more to Artists for Peace and Justice's Haiti campaign. Wilde tweets:"Its worse every minute guys, so we are raising the stakes. Those who give $200 or more will get a personal thank you video… THANK YOU for your donation, OF ANY AMOUNT. they are all crucial. "I swear to you that every dollar is going directly to the Haitians who need it most. THANK YOU."Other celebrities such as Wyclef Jean, Tiger Woods, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Ben Stiller, Jessica Alba, and Heroes' Jimmy Jean-Louis and Zachary Quinto, have urged fans to donate via Twitter and their own charity programs.See?! That's how you do it, Sarah McLachlan. You don't need to bum us out with suicidal animals to get your point across. Just be frank and to the point and send us videos of Olivia Wilde.You can donate to the Artists for Peace and Justice here. Or you can pledge $10 to the Red Cross by texting "HAITI" to 90999.
The Simpsons just aired their 450th episode to celebrate 20 years of avoiding the network ax, but there's still plenty more exciting things to come in Springfield. Al Jean, showrunner for 18 of the 20 years of The Simpsons (he only left to run The Critic for two short-lived seasons), told us about some exciting Simpsons events and guest stars coming up."January 31st we have an episode where one of our fans created a character," Jean said over drinks at the Fox party during the Television Critics Association winter press tour. "So that character debuts in that episode. Coming up we have Sarah Silverman in an episode. We have Sacha Baron Cohen playing an Israeli tour guide. We just recorded Jon Hamm today [Jan. 11] for an episode that airs in December."More about the season finale after the jump.
Matt Damon has a knack for delivering a convincing death blow to the face, chest, elbow, or balls, and it looks like he's maintained his Bourne skills in the new film Green Zone. In the below featurette, Damon and director Paul Greengrass, BFFs forever, give us some details in to the storyline, and discuss what makes a good thriller thrilling. Clearly it's an abundance of ass-kicking and broken necks, but wouldn't you know it, direction and pacing has a big part to do with it too. Someone get McG on the phone! I need to sit him down and show him something…
Breaking Bad's meth cooking schoolteacher Bryan Cranston has joined the cast of Andrew Stanton's foray into live-action, John Carter of Mars. Taylor Kitsch stars as the Civil War veteran John Carter, who is mysteriously transported to Mars and joins the Martian people in their own war. Cranston will play a Civil War colonel who comes into conflict with Carter. Also on board for the Pixar film are Lynn Collins, Willem Dafoe, Mark Strong, and Thomas Haden Church. All are playing giant, green warrior-like aliens. I know. I know. You already want to compare this to Avatar. But that comparison really doesn't hold up. First of all, this is based off a book series by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Cameron stole his story from a novella. Plus, the Na'vi are blue not green. Do your research, guys. (THR)
Come back, Jeff Gowdbwum! I want to pway more!In a recent interview with Boxoffice Magazine, Joe Johnston, director of The Wolfman, confirmed that Jurassic Park IV is definitely happening, and will most likely be the beginning of a new trilogy of Jurassic Park films:Well, there is going to be a Jurassic Park IV. And it's going to be unlike anything you've seen. It breaks away from the first three—it's essentially the beginning of the second Jurassic Park trilogy. It's going to be done in a completely different way. He went on to say:If you think of the first three as a trilogy, number four would be the beginning of a second trilogy. If they keep working—and if audiences keep going to them—there's no reason why there wouldn't be. We just want to make them justified in their own right. We don't want to make sequel after sequel just because there's a market for it. We want to tell different, interesting stories. You don't want to just sell hamburger.The island dinosaurs are going to terrorize three more groups of people?! You know evolution has failed when humans continue going back to a defunct theme park thats most popular ride is being eaten alive by prehistoric beasts. Nonetheless, if Jurassic Park IV can bring the series back to level of the first film I'll stand in line just like I did in 1993.

Um. The first trailer for Ironclad is online and it… um, yeah. I mean, I don't get it. It has real actors in it like Richard Attenborough, Robert Carlyle, Bob Hoskins, James Purefoy, Brian Cox, and Pete Poselthwaite. At least one of those guys is an actual lord! How is this so bad looking? Is it performance art?? If so, where's James Franco??? It honestly looks like footage from a Ren Faire. Paul Giamatti has reportedly joined the cast since this trailer was filmed. He'll be disappointed to find out it's not an actual Ren Faire. Therefore, no deep-fried Oreos. Have a look for yourself. Just kidding. The actual Ironclad trailer is after the jump but it's no better than what you just saw. (via Cinematical)
Cameras are still set to roll in March for Matthijs van Heijningen Jr.'s prequel to The Thing. Plot details are beginning to surface as the date approaches. Spoiler TV published the casting breakdown which helps fill in some of the gaps on the story.News of note is that the film has a female lead and early rumors about MacReady's brother appearing in the film were wrong. I've posted the casting specs after the jump with the spoilers removed for those who have never seen a movie before and can't guess who will and will not survive. I can say that after reading through the spoilers and character descriptions, it seems that the movie borrows from Aliens, Lethal Weapon, and The Mist. In other words, we've got another Deep Blue Sea on our hands. LL Cool J should be expecting a call any day now. (Spoiler TV)CHECK OUT THE CASTING BREAKDOWN AFTER THE JUMP…
Hitler Weighs in on the OBrien/Leno Controversy – Watch more Funny VideosIt was only a matter of time until the ruthless dictator made his opinion of The Tonight Show controversy known. He's clearly on Team O'Brien, and is infuriated that NBC ruined his vacation to sunny Southern California. It was going to be suck a nice weekend for Hitler in Los Angeles. He was so looking forward to sitting in The Tonight Show audience and giggling joyfully at Conan's floppy red hair. And now NEIN!
Moon director Duncan Jones will be following up his debut with another sci-fi entry. Source Code stars Jake Gyllenhaal as a soldier investigating a terrorist bombing of a train. Using an experimental technology, Gyllenhaal enters the body of an unknown commuter and must relive the bombing over and over again until he finds who is responsible for the act (Could it be him? What are the twist-ending chances??). Vera Farmiga and Michelle Monaghan have just joined the time-travel mystery. Farmiga will play the communications officer controlling Gyllenhaal and Monaghan will play a love interest he encounters while travelling. Time to come clean a little bit. I originally planned to group the above pictures of the actresses together in the hopes that one thing may lead to another and that they would start to kiss a little bit. Then that baby had to show up and spoil my genius plot. I'll get you for this baby! Just as soon as I can pull my pants back up. (THR)
Last night, late night television had a rip roaring good time ripping NBC a new asshole. Everyone is pretty amped up over the whole O'Brien/Leno debacle, and the hosts presented a unified front by expressing their disdain for the floundering network in their own special ways. David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel, Craig Ferguson, and even Conan himself didn't hold back. I've posted a couple of my favorite clips below from last night's roast of NBC. The first one shows Conan playing a game of Deal or No Deal with Howie Mandel in an effort to decide his future. The second is Jimmy Kimmel's monologue, where he decided to impersonate a certain big-chined "funny"man.
Zach Galifianakis and Paul Rudd are teaming up once again. The Dinner for Schmucks stars are ready to piss off the Bible Belt with the comedy Will. From THR:The story follows an ordinary guy (Rudd) who lives in a world where people's lives and destinies are being written by scribes in Heaven. The man wakes up one day to find that his heavenly writer (Galifianakis) has decided to no longer draft his life, and he must go about his day unscripted, ending up on a journey to fulfill his hidden potential.A talented group of funny people are working behind the camera as well. Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (Little Miss Sunshine, Smashing Pumpkins videos, one video for The Offspring) will direct the Demetri Martin-penned script with Will Ferrell and Adam McKay producing. Wow. That's quite the roster. The craft services guy had better be HILARIOUS if he wants to stand out in that crowd. (THR)

James Gunn is going to break the Internet if he keeps casting so many geek-friendly actors in his upcoming Super. The superhero dark comedy stars Rainn Wilson as a man who up and decides to be a superhero after his wife leaves him despite his lack of powers. LOTR's Liv Tyler is the wife who leaves his ass for Kevin Bacon's charming drug dealer. Now, Nathan Fillion (Dr. Horrible), Ellen Page (Inception), Linda Cardellini (Freaks and Geeks), Michael Rooker (Mallrats), Andre Royo (The Wire), Sean Gunn (Gilmore Girls), and Steve Agee (The Sarah Silverman Program) are all aboard the project. The nerdgasmic film is currently filming in Louisiana with no confirmed release date. Rest assured, whatever opening day is decided upon will be the day that me and the other cool kids go rob the nerd houses. Those Star Wars figures will be mine! (GeekWeek)
Tosh.0 Still Brings the Pain – Watch more Funny VideosDaniel Tosh is back to bring you the best viral videos on the web, and even hunt down and interview the whackjobs who are the featured stars/victims/sad excuses for the gift of life. Tosh.0 is a show for folks who are restricted from surfing the Internet all day to look at footage that would make Darwin roll over in his grave, and for folks who just like the funny boiled down and brought to them on a silver platter. Check out the quick preview of Tosh.0 above, and then tune into the premiere of the second season Wednesday January 13th at 10:30 E/P on Comedy Central.
And the fires from Heaven will rain down upon them, and only your chin will survive! Conan O'Brien is mad as hell, and he's not going to take it anymore. The current Tonight Show host has released a statement telling NBC they can go suck it, in so many words. He refuses to host the Tonight Show after Jay Leno, as he believes shifting timeslots would compromise the integrity of what he considers the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting. It was NBC's plan to put Leno on at 11:35PM, followed by Conan at 12:05PM, but now that Conan is threatening to break his contract, the PeaCOCK is going to have to think again. FOX has made it more than clear that they think Conan would be a perfect fit at their prosperous network. No formal offers have been made yet, but inside sources say one is extremely likely in the near future. I imagine now that Conan has told NBC what's what, FOX is gathering its gaggle of lawyers together as I type this.Check out Conan's press release in its entirety after the jump.

Or are they???When you're a bro as in demand as Robert Downey Jr., bromances come and bromances go. And Jon Favreau needs to understand that.News has broken that Downey Jr. has dropped out of Favreau's Cowboys & Aliens in favor of broin' out with Jude Law on the set of the Sherlock Holmes sequel. The success of the first Sherlock Holmes has prompted Warner Brothers to fast-track the sequel and put it before cameras this June, which is exactly the same time that Cowboys & Aliens is planning to begin principal photography.It looks like this was strictly a business decision and Favreau should not take Downey's broparture to heart. I'm sure he'll find another bro who's brotastic enough for the part. That Matthew McConaughey seems nice. Just talk it over with Vince Vaughn. He's always there for a bro in need. (EW)
In the wake of Avatar crushing so much ass at the box office, everyone wants to get into the 3D game. But now I have bummerific news for those who were hoping to have Russell Crowe's love handles looming out at their faces when Robin Hood comes to theaters. Previous reports that Ridley Scott had requested an additional $8 million to convert his re-telling to 3D have been denied by the studio. That's a decision that I can get behind. 3D is cool in small doses but it is ultimately an unnecessary gimmick. To the best of my knowledge, the following phrase has never been said: "Seven Samurai was really good but there just weren't enough swords poking out of the screen for my taste. Jeers to the filmmakers! Hiss! Hiss!!" (First Showing)
Spider-Man 4 is deader than dead. Sam Raimi & Tobey Maguire and Sony have decided to part ways on the project after being unable to agree that John Malkovich would look totally awesome in a vulture costume, among other creative differences. Sony has decided to reboot the franchise completely, working from a script by Jamie Vanderbilt that places Peter Parker back in high school where he'll have to deal with sexual and arachnid hormones simultaneously. You can read the full Sony press release at Deadline Hollywood, but allow me to sum it up for you: "Ass-kissing, ass-kissing, ass-kissing. We're sorry this couldn't work. We wish only the best. Everyone is fantastic. (F*ck everyone). Ass-kissing, ass-kissing."The Spider-Man reboot is expected to hit theaters in Summer 2012.In the meantime, click on these links.50 Things Made Better with Bacon (HolyTaco)Mark McGwire Confesses to Steroids Use.

Chuck fans got their wish for a third season, which premiered last night on NBC. Chuck's got all his superspy stuff going on with Intersect 2.0 and his stunted romance with Sarah. We also saw Morgan return from Hawaii, single, and move in with Chuck. Joshua Gomez, who plays Morgan, told Screen Junkies that'll give you a sense of where the rest of this third season is going. "My friendship with Chuck kind of comes back together and we kind of rely on each other a lot again and become roomies, finally become roommates and become a full on bromance," Gomez said. "There's big things at the store as far as Morgan is concerned, takes on a higher position. It's some good stuff."Morgan is there to help Chuck through the emotional times, but earning a promotion at the Buy More gives Morgan problems of his own. "He is no Emmet Milbarge, so the natives get a little restless because I don't think I'm tough enough," Gomez said. "I think they're one of me. I can level with them, I can communicate with them. I speak their language."Read more from Joshua after the jump.
It has been announced that screeching retard Avril Lavigne will contribute a song to Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland soundtrack. The song, entilted "Alice Underground", has been selected for the soundtrack and is reportedly going to be the first single off her upcoming album Daddy I$$uez (working title). Alice in Wonderland's soundtrack will also include songs by All Time Low and an ungodly collaboration from Mark Hoppus of Blink-182 and Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy. Wentz points out that this collaboration is only for fun and will not lead to a future band or project. Though if they are to ever combine their forces, might I recommend the band name SHART? It seems appropriate given the key ingredients of this union. (MTV)
A perfectly good cello leans up against a porch support in the teaser for HBO's new series Treme. The cello is one of several sad, ownerless instruments featured in the tour of the New Orleans neighborhood in which the series is set. Treme, from The Wire creator (start creaming your jeans) David Simon, will examine New Orleans in much the same way The Wire examined Baltimore. Treme specifically focuses on the musicians living in the titular neighborhood. Check out the trailer below, and please make a donation if you can to provide a loving home for all the stray instruments. The trumpets are the first to be put down.

MYMAG's mission statement is to "give the world's most interesting people a chance to showcase what inspires them." Well, maybe they plan to do that with future issues because for their kick-off they've chosen Olivia Munn, Steve Aoki, and BRETT RATNER to play editor-in-chief. Says Ratner threw his buttocks: "If I weren't a film director, I would probably be a magazine editor. When I was pitched the concept for MYMAG, I was shocked — how did they know I had a treasure trove of favorite magazine articles saved in my closet?" I don't know, dude. You seem like the type who's into collage-making? If you flip through the pages of RAT-MAG, you'll find articles about Michael Jackson, Roman Polanski, and Miley Cyrus (surprisingly you won't find any glittery unicorn stickers or cheese-glued pages). In summation, Brett Ratner's favorite topics are Michael Jackson, Roman Polanski, and Miley Cyrus. If that girl from iCarly goes missing, authorities should look no further than Ratner. If he runs, release the hounds. The smell of Hostess Snowballs will lead a path directly to him.
Very few actors have the villainous acumen of Gary Oldman. His expansive biography of ne'er-do-wells extends from mythology's greatest bad guy (Dracula) to common pimps and pedophiles. His talent is so far reaching it also includes douchy politicians and power-hungry killers with bad hair.Alas, lately he's been springing up as Goody Two Shoes, like Batman's wingman Commissioner Gordon. He's even been using his predisposition as a bad guy with a sense of irony, as in his role in the Harry Potter series, Sirius Black. However, in his latest movie, The Book of Eli, he returns to his roots – playing the antagonist. So we'd like to congratulate Gary on his comeback to malevolence (we've missed you) with a highlight of the various evil-doers he's made so vivid on the silver screen, ranked in order of his characters' titles.

Yes to Coconut Protecting Hand & Cuticle Cream
This ultra-rich hand cream has antioxidants and allatoin to help keep hands soft without being greasy.
Deep Comfort Hand and Cuticle Cream
This fragrance-free product has an impressive mix of antioxidants and skin-repairing ingredients that keep cuticles in shape.
Add to Faves?
When dry, chapped hands are the issue, you need an emollient product with replenishing ingredients. In order for a hand cream to make the Best Products list, it must:
The hand creams without sunscreen on this list are recommended for nighttime use only; for daytime, your hands need sun protection, either from a moisturizing sunscreen or from a hand cream with sunscreen. Of course, any moisturizing sunscreen you'd normally apply to your face or body can also be applied to your hands. A separate hand cream with sunscreen is fine if you enjoy the texture compared to a "regular" sunscreen, and there are some excellent, non-greasy options on this list.
Extras that are always welcome include anti-irritants and emollients that research has shown help repair skin's barrier function while preventing moisture loss.
Hand creams should be applied liberally and often, especially after washing your hands or doing anything that may cause dryness, such as exposure to cold weather or household chores (wearing gloves to protect your hands is always a good idea). You will be surprised how much the skin on your hands will improve with daily use of an SPF-rated product, whether labeled "hand cream" or not. Sun protection is essential to prevent brown "age" spots on hands and to help those you may already be seeing fade quickly and evenly.

The grill tends to bring our family closer together during the summer and makes cooking so much more fun.
Cooking in our wide-open backyard while the kids play squealing and our dogs run around it such a different experience than cooking in our small kitchen during the cold winters. The smells and sounds are invigorating, plus I can cook while practicing cartwheels with my 7-year-old, watching my 5-year-old's swing performance, and playing baseball with my 3-year-old.
Tonight, before we all piled on one couch with popsicles in hand (the best summer treat) to watch the Summer Olympics Opening Ceremonies, we headed outside to create a traditional summer family dinner with pork ribs, corn on the cob, zucchini, and baked beans – all on the grill.
I broke out my new Barbecue! Bible, which I love, because it breaks down all the different types of flavorings for meat and how to use them in detail. Since I can't do anything by-the-book, I slightly altered a recipe for a rub. Plus, I found a simple sauce to flavor the vegetables that I wasn't even looking for, but couldn't pass up.
Our meal took an unexpected turn when we realized I may have added too much Cayenne Pepper to the rub. Suddenly it became a challenge to see who could go the longest without the relief of a drink of milk after taking a bite of their pork rib. Embarrassingly enough, my 3-year-old son got the Gold Medal in this event.
What brings your family closer together for meal times? And how did your family get ready to cheer on this year's U.S. Olympic Team?
Ragin' Cajun Rub Recipe
- 1/2 Cup Sea Salt
- 1/4 Cup Paprika
- 3 TBSP Fresh Ground Pepper
- 1 TBSP Cayenne Pepper
- 1 TBSP Dried Thyme
- 1 TBSP Diced Onions
- 1 TBSP Garlic Powder
- 1 TBSP Honey Barbecue Sauce
Mix all ingredients together until blended well. Place your meat in a freezer bag. Pour in the Ragin' Cajun Rub. Shake until the meat is covered and refrigerate at least 8-24 hours before cooking your meat on the grill or bake in the oven.
This rub works well with chicken, pork, or turkey.
Garlic Butter Vegetable Baste Recipe
- 8 TBSP Butter
- 3 Cloves Minced Garlic
- 1/2 TBSP Fresh Ground Pepper
Melt butter, then mix in other ingredients until well blended. Add to vegetables before cooking or while cooking as a baste.

Officers in Chattanooga arrested eight pimps and 11 prostitutes in connection with a nationwide FBI sting.
Agents with the FBI headquarters in Knoxville say the arrests were in connection with Operation Cross Country.
READ MORE | More than 100 teens rescued in weekend sex-trafficking raids, FBI says
He says they did not recover and juveniles, all the arrests were adults.
FBI agents recovered 105 sexually exploited children and arrested 150 pimps and other individuals. The sting was a three day nationwide enforcement.
The sweep took place in 76 cities and was carried out by the FBI in partnership with local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies, and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
"Child prostitution remains a persistent threat to children across America," said Ron Hosko, assistant director of the FBI's Criminal Investigative Division in a release on the FBI's website. "This operation serves as a reminder that these abhorrent crimes can happen anywhere and that the FBI remains committed to stopping this cycle of victimization and holding the criminals who profit from this exploitation accountable."
Since its creation in 2003, the Innocence Lost National Initiative has resulted in the identification and recovery of more than 2,700 children who have been sexually exploited. Behind those numbers are the stories of real victims.

MASSENA - Sen. Charles E. Chuck Schumer is urging federal environmental remediation officials to move ahead on their proposed clean-up of the Grasse River in order to support and strengthen the economy of the north country.
Mr. Schumers comments come three days after Alcoa announced its plans to modernize its Massena aluminum production facilities, which is a requirement of a deal with the state that guarantees a long-term supply of low-cost electricity from the New York Power Authority
However, Alcoa has also stated that its decision to modernize is contingent on whether the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency chooses to move ahead on its proposed Grasse River Remediation project, an estimated $245 million project to be paid for entirely by Alcoa.
Mr. Schumer feels the proposed remediation plan is the best option to remove PCBs released by the aluminum manufacturer, while not costing Alcoa so much that the company wouldnt have the capital left to modernize its Massena operations.
During a visit with company and local government officials, Mr. Schumer said Alcoa has a limited amount of capital, and that if the company is forced to spend too much on its Grasse River cleanup, it wont have enough left over to modernize its facilities, a project that many see as a crucial step toward ensuring Alcoas continued presence in Massena.
We are happy to have a (clean-up) plan on the merits, but it shouldnt go overboard. The cost of that (proposed clean-up) would allow Alcoa enough money to modernize its plants, Mr. Schumer said.
Following his visit, Sen. Schumers office issued the following press release:
MASSENA - Today, at Alcoa Inc. in Massena, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer joined Alcoa officials and workers to urge the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to finalize its cleanup plan for the Grasse River in the coming weeks, in order to turn Alcoas commitment to Massena and the North Country into a final deal. While Alcoas board has authorized investment in multi-million dollar facility upgrades at the Massena plant, the job-creating investment cannot move forward without the finalization of the Environmental Protection Agencys cleanup plan.
After years of delay and uncertainty, under previous EPA administrations, Schumer contends it is critical the final cost is fair and that there are no further delays to the release of the final Record of Decision (ROD). Schumer said that with the completion of a final ROD, the company will have a better understanding of the terms and costs of their requirements to clean up the river, and will be able to move forward with additional job-creating investments via the Massena plant modernization. In addition, if the final ROD were to increase dramatically in cost from the $245 million detailed in the EPAs preliminary estimations, Alcoa might not be able to afford its recently authorized $600 million investment, which is expected to create construction and permanent jobs, estimated to be in the hundreds.
Schumer has worked closely with Alcoa and local stakeholders over the past two years to ensure that the federal EPA moved swiftly and fairly in that process, which had dragged on for a number of years. The EPA released its Proposed Remedial Action Plan (PRAP) for the cleanup of pollutants in the river in October 2012, and final approval of that plan is expected in the near future. Schumer said it must occur in April, because all due diligence has been completed, and failure to grant final approval for the cleanup serves no substantive purpose and would only delay in work on modernization of the Massena operations. The river cleanup is estimated to cost about $245 million. The modernization investment would retain hundreds of jobs in St. Lawrence County, and would create others, securing this vital industry for decades to come.
Once the EPA acts, the North Country will have cause for celebration: Alcoa, our regions largest private sector employer, will be able to move to the next phase of a multi-million investment at the Massena plant, said Schumer. This will create jobs, boost the local economy and improve the environment. It will also anchor Alcoa and its jobs in St. Lawrence County for decades to come. Now, the EPA must give Alcoa and local stakeholders the final approval to move forward with this game-changing, environment-improving, economy-boosting moment.
Alcoa and the Massena community has had no stronger advocate with the EPA than Senator Schumer.The Senator has worked tirelessly to help achieve a reasonable solution that cleans up the river and allows Alcoa to keep investing in the North Country-making Saturdays announcement possible. Thats why were very excited to have Senator Schumer here today, and are grateful for his continued support, said Robert Lenney, Alcoa Massena Plant Manager.
Schumer visited Alcoa in August 2012 and launched his effort for the EPA and other relevant federal agencies to approve and expedite the publication of the PRAP. In August, the EPA heeded Schumers call and released its plan for the cleanup of pollutants in the Grasse River in Massena, which he said would help boost and expedite Alcoas plans to improve the local environment and upgrade its manufacturing operations in Massena. Schumer said that the EPA is nearly finished finalizing the PRAP in the form of the ROD and he expects that it will be a fair and balanced approach similar to the plan released in October, which gives Alcoas Board of Directors the confidence necessary to reaffirm their commitment to St. Lawrence County and all of its workers.Schumer said that the EPA plan must be released in April.
The lack of finality around this process undermined the companys ability to make future expansion plans. The light is clearly visible at the end of the tunnel, and it will beckon a brighter future for the North Countrys economy and its environment, continued Schumer. I applaud the EPA, Alcoa and the local leaders, including the St. Regis Mohawk community, for working in a professional, focused and collaborative way to get us to this point, and now the EPA must get us over the finish line.
Schumer applauded the recent deal between the New York Power Authority and Alcoa Inc. Schumer has long fought for a low-cost electricity deal and at a critical point in the process under Governor Spitzer, Senator Schumer made it clear that New York State and the New York Power Authority should prioritize a relationship with Alcoa, and move aggressively to lock in a long-term deal to support and sustain this critical North Country employer.
As the largest private employer in the North Country, with over 1,000 manufacturing jobs, Alcoa is a critical fixture in Massena and other local communities. The proposed $600 million for modernizations and upgrades have marked a critical step forward in the companys conditional approval, and will ensure the future of the Massena operations for at least three decades. The PRAP, which was released by the EPA in October 2012, includes the capping and dredging of industrial waste in the Grasse River. Alcoa has already exhibited expertise in employing successful capping and dredging methods in the Grasse River over the past 23 years.
Specifically, the plan calls for dredging of contaminated sediment from the river basin and capping of other segments in the river in order to contain hazardous sediment and isolate pollutants. The Grasse River, a tributary of the St. Lawrence River, flows from the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains, through the towns of Canton and Massena in the St. Lawrence Valley, and meets the St. Lawrence River downstream of Massena. Large parts of the Grasse River are popular with anglers, since it is stocked with a variety of trout and bass species. As a result of elevated PCB levels found in fish in the area, the lower Grasse River has been placed under fish consumption advisory by the New York State Department of Health.
Alcoa Inc. is a New York-based company that specializes in mining, refining, smelting, fabricating and recycling aluminum. The company is currently the worlds third largest aluminum producer and maintains operations in 31 countries. Alcoas Massena, NY facility is the longest continually operating aluminum facility in the world, currently employing over 1,000 people, and contributing $340 million to the local economy annually through payroll, taxes, and contributions to community events. Alcoa Inc. is also the largest private sector employer north of Syracuse and has been a vital part of the Massena community since 1902. The company is committed to both the human and environmental success of the region, and has been a key player in the restoration of the area along the Grasse and St. Lawrence rivers. Through funding and continuous research, Alcoa plans to monitor and reduce its ecological footprint in the region, while helping to revitalize its natural surroundings.

Though Hurricane Sandy wreaked its havoc nearly three months ago, those most affected by the storm are still working to put their homes--and their lives--back together. The rest of the country has moved on, but relief efforts still continue in parts of New York and New Jersey, where the damage was most devastating.
Along with those who are laboring to clean up and rebuild damaged homes are the volunteers who have donated their time and talents to make beautiful handmade quilts for the hurricane victims. One such volunteer is quilter Kim Story. After winning Quilting Daily's fabric giveaway in November, Kim quickly labored to make a quilt with her collection of fat quarters from Dear Stella.

USU-CEU Volleyball is competing well in conference but is barely missing out on wins. North Idaho College is one of the hottest teams nationally and are ranked at #10. Recently on Sept. 25 they knocked off the previously #1 ranked Southern Idaho team 3-1 dropping them out of the top 10 to #11. Coach Barraclough decided to make a lineup change moving #3 Sabrina Simas from middle hitter to opposite outside hitter and inserting #1 Nicole Roberts into the middle. The change was very positive and CEU after a slow start took control of the match and forced the fifth set but came up short with another conference loss.
North Idaho College -
25 25 23 30 15 - 3
College of Eastern Utah -
17 20 25 32 8 - 2
Set 1 left the home team with a bit of a bad taste in their mouth as they just could not turn it on when desired. North Idaho had an answer for everything the Golden Eagles put up and started to pull away after a 11-11 tie. Seven straight serves pushes North Idaho ahead for good. Simas leads the home team with three kills.
Set 2 the eagles are hanging tough with the cardinals as Julia Potts records her second of three kills of the set and ties the set at 17-17. Then attack errors by the eagles and some impressive hitting by the cardinals places the visitors at game point 17-24. CEU didn't quit and gots three points back before the set ended.
Set 3 showed how good the Golden Eagles are as they stepped up their play and turned the tables on the cardinals. This set was as intense as it gets and the home crowd cheered loudly watched quality volleyball with neither team forging ahead. There were eight ties and after Barbara Jardin put down her sixth kill of the set, the score was knotted at 23-23. CEU grabbed two straight points and their first set win. This got the home team and the crowd going.
Set 4 the stage is set for CEU to tie up the match at two sets a piece with a marathon set. CEU jumped out to an early five point lead and extended their lead to seven forcing North Idaho to call a timeout at 20-13. Set in control by CEU right? Wrong.The cardinals mounted a massive comeback. Jardin's fifth kill of the set and CEU was still up 23-17. Hitting errors let North Idaho back in but Jardin' sixth kill brings CEU to set point 24-22. North Idaho was determined but CEU finally finshed them off with the last and seventh kill goining to Jardin for the set win. Parkinson and Simas were on fire contributing five kills each in the set.
Set 5 the amazing Golden Eagle volleyball play stepped down a little and North Idaho took advantage of it and won the match.
CEU finished the match with three players in double digit kills; Jardin 18, Parkinson 17 and Simas 12. Julia Potts records a season high 48 assists. Nicole Roberts gets four kills in her first start as a middle and CEU's other middle Joy Malone also records four kills. The Golden Eagles had five players in double digits in digs; Abigale Ericson 16, Potts and Jardin 15 each, Simas and Parkinson 12 each. Katie Palmer, Klylie Cordon and Britni Green came off the bench and made quality contributions to the team.

If Head Coach John Tortorella was displeased with all of his players against Tampa Bay, he should be livid after last night's 8 - 3 loss to the Atlantic Division rival Pittsburgh Penguins.
Reminiscent of the 7 - 3 loss at MSG against the San Jose Sharks, the Rangers came out to an early lead and lost control. Marc Staal gave the Rangers a 1 - 0 lead midway through the first period, but the Penguins scored three straight to end the period and put the Rangers on their heels.
While it may have appeared that the Rangers were completely out of it, Matt Gilroy got an early period goal to pull the Rangers within one. For a moment, a fan could be fooled to think that New York could come back. That they were starting to exemplify the "resiliency" that Tortorella was looking for.
And for 19 minutes and 59.7 seconds, that was true.
But with .3 seconds remaining in the period, the Rangers simply gave up. Brooks Orpik skated in around four of the Blueshirts without so much as being touched and finding Craig Adams who ripped a shot high and wide. Even then, the Rangers were flat-footed and allowed Mark Eaton to blast a slap shot uncontested from the point and into the high far corner.
4 - 2 Penguins after two periods and all four goals were because of lazy efforts by the Rangers.
And even after Michal Rozsival scored early in the third, the Rangers never showed the effort or resolve to get back into the game. Pittsburgh was allowed to skate freely and left New York scrambling in their own zone for four more goals and the 8 - 3 victory.
How could the team that rattled off seven straight victories early on and was atop the NHL be looking at an 8 - 3 loss and sit outside the playoff picture?
If the last second goal of the second period didn't illustrate the Rangers problems enough, the lax skating of sniper Marian Gaborik, certainly did.
Despite collecting two assists and having an even +/-, Gaborik began looking disinterested and was not skating with the swagger that has made him successful in his first 20+ games as a Ranger.
Could he be feeling a little fed up with having no goal support? Is he getting frustrated with Tortorella? Both are plausible.
It begins to beg the question of whether the entire team has lost touch with their fiery coach. Just ask rookie winger Enver Lisin who skated for 0.00 minutes during the game.
Brian Boyle was already a healthy scratch and as the team struggled to compete with Pittsburgh, you would think a coach would look to any player to change the momentum. Perhaps, Lisin was injured and unable to play.
And the defense was handled just as curiously.
Matt Gilroy skated for only 16:23 and newcomer Bobby Sanguinetti for 10:46. Gilroy had a goal and an even +/- while Sanguinetti was +1. Meanwhile, Mike DelZotto skated for 21:34 and was -5. Girardi played 21:39 and was -2.
The ship isn't completely sinking, but the boat has begun taking on water and it appears that crew is losing faith in the reeling captain.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9/AP) -- Thousands of families will feel the effects of a government shutdown with one less income coming into the household.
WUSA 9's Delia Goncalves caught up with some federal workers who were unsure if Monday's trip to the jobwould bethe last one for now.Some remain hopeful there will be a compromise.Others area bit more skeptical in Congress' ability to compromise as the clock ticks down.
If there is a shutdown, it would be the first in 17 years. The battle between parties is driven by a budget dispute over the president's health care law. House Speaker John Boehner blamed Senate Democrats for taking Sunday off."Well my goodness, if there's such an emergency, where are they?"Boehner said shortly after the house began its session on Monday.
The Senate returns shortly after 2 p.m., just 10 hours before a threatened shutdown. Majority Leader Harry Reid wants the House to vote onthe Senate's bill to keep the government open. Reid plans votes to reject GOP-crafted amendments to delay the health care law and eliminate a tax on medical devices.
If there's no compromise by the deadline, national parks would close, many low-to-moderate incomes borrowers and first-time homebuyers seeking government-backed mortgages could face delays and passport applications would be delayed. Approximately 800,000 federal workers would be forced off the job without pay. Some critical services such as patrolling the borders, inspecting meat and controlling air traffic would continue. Social Security benefits would be sent, and the Medicare and Medicaid health care programs for the elderly and poor would continue to pay doctors and hospitals.

Michelle Kwan, a two-time Olympic medalist, married LT Clay Pell of the United States Coast Guard. The wedding was the usual star-studded affair:
About 250 guests attended the ceremony, including Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee and his wife, Stephani, as well as Olympic champions Brian Boitano, Dick Button and Dorothy Hamill,
Pell, a 31-year-old JAG lawyer and Coast Guard lieutenant, works on the White House's national security staff.
He is the grandson of the late Rhode Island Sen. Claiborne Pell, who reportedly established Pell Grants to assist college students with in paying their tuition 40 years ago.
Kwan is a public policy envoy with the U.S. State Department and the most decorated figure skater in American history.
She won 43 championships, including five World titles, nine national crowns, as well as the silver medal at the 1998 Winter Olympics and bronze at the 2002 Games.
I wonder if he received a Pell Grant in college? Good job and many blessings, Coastie. (Congrats too, to Michelle Pell for the maritime move. I hear those Coast Guard types are very good at search and seizure operations.)

How many of you were afraid of the dark, or of whatever lurks under the bed? I was terrified as a child.
I wasn't allowed a night light and so I would lie there for hours, eyes wide open, covers pulled up around my face, staring at the night shapes that formed in front of me. Monsters, aliens and scary people formed at the foot of my bed in my imagination. I'd cry quietly because I knew if my mother heard me she would be angry at what she called my "silliness"
There were two things in my room that scared me the most. One was my bed. The small town where I grew up was close to what we called the looney bin (an asylum for what was then called the insane) Frequent stories were told to all small children in our town about an escapee who had hidden under a child's bed and worked his way through the mattress with a knife. The child's mother, according to the story, found her dead in the morning. Of course the gender and age of the child in the story changed depending who it was being told to but even though we thought it might not be true, it frightened those of us listening. So I always checked and double-checked under my bed at night.
One night my older brother crawled into my room, unseen by me, and hid under my bed. Waiting for just the right moment, he suddenly loomed up over me in the dark and put his hands around my throat as if to strangle me. I was hysterical and of course that just reinforced my already active imagination and night fears. I do remember my father being very angry with my brother and it taking quite awhile for him to calm me down.
The second thing in my room that frightened me was the cubby-hole. Our bedrooms had slanted ceilings and behind where the slant changed to an upright normal wall, lay the cubby-holes which ran the full width of the front and the rear of our house. There were two bedrooms upstairs for us kids and each room had it's own door to one of the cubby-holes.
I was pretty convinced that a very bad or insane person was hiding in my cubby-hole, just waiting to come out and kill my entire family at night. Did I mention I was given to nightmares and had an incredibly vivid imagination?
And so from the age of 4 or 5, perhaps earlier, until my teens, I suffered terribly listening to creaks and groans and what sounded like scratching noises, as well as seeing various monstrous shapes appear and disappear in the darkness around my bed.
I'm over it now but I admit that on occasion I still look under the bed when it's bedtime. And I like to have a light burning in the hall or somewhere so I can see just a sliver of light in my bedroom.
What about your terrors and night fears? Did you have any and how did you combat them or how did your parents deal with them? My mother just told me I was being silly. I guess she thought that would make them go away or be less real to me.

Metered taxis are available but are among the most expensive in the world. Driving in Stockholm is easy compared to most large cities, but drivers need to be aware of toll passages and an overall scarcity of parking.

Stockholm has a humid continental climate, with mild to warm temperatures in summer, and winters that are cold, but not as cold as many foreigners expect. In the coldest winter months, between December and February, average temperatures range from about 14°F (−10°C) to 30°F (−1°C), although temperatures do sometimes drop to below −4°F (−20°C). Average temperatures in summer, between June and August, range between 55°F (13°C) and 77°F (25°C), but temperatures can reach 86°F (30°C). Snowfall usually occurs from January to March, and temperatures are cold enough that visitors will want to pack really warm clothes. Rainfall can occur throughout the year, though the summer months of July and August tend to be the wettest. Stockholm receives about 18 hours of daylight in midsummer, and only six hours in midwinter.
For those travelling to and from the airport there are many alternative modes of transport including high-speed trains (Arlanda Express) and airport coaches/buses (Flygbussarna), as well as commuter and long-distance trains. Long-distance SJ trains leave from Arlanda Central Station, where the SJ railway company offers long-distance train tickets and schedule information. The Arlanda Express train to Stockholm Central Station runs roughly every hour between 5am and 1am daily. Buses go to the city roughly every 10 minutes, taking about 40 minutes to make the journey. Taxis and rental cars are also available.
Car rental companies represented at the airport include Avis, Europcar and Hertz.
Taxis are available directly outside all terminals at the airport. Most taxi companies offer a fixed rate for the trip to the city centre, which should take about half an hour.
Complimentary shuttles operate between the terminals.
The airport is well supplied with banks, bureaux de change, ATMs, restaurants, bars and shops. The SkyCity centre inside the airport complex provides every conceivable amenity for travellers, including a luxury hotel and health club. All the terminals have lounge areas with power points for recharging mobile phones and laptop computers.
Parking is accessible from all four terminals. Costs range from SEK 50 to SEK 80 per hour, and SEK 130 to SEK 360 per day. There are discounts for booking online in advance, and as prices range dramatically depending on the parking lot it is advised to visit the website to find out which parking best suits your needs.
Free wifi is available for three hours in the airport.

"Water Falling Great Smoky Mountains" greeting card by Rich Franco. Ships within 2 - 3 business days and includes a plain white envelop for mailing and/or gift giving. Available in vertical and horizontal orientations.
Hello! My name is Rich Franco and I first joined FAA in December of 2011. I'm a Photographer based here in Central Florida and, like many of others, started out with a "hand me down" camera and no idea what to do with it or even what the camera could do. I was in my early 20's at that time and didn't have a lot of money to spend on books or film. So my first trip was to the local Library and the "photography" section and more specifically, the "how to" shelf. There I found an odd assortment of books that described things and subjects that were way over my head. Then I found my first edition of the Time/Life books on Photography and that's where I started! The library only had the first two editions and I was in a hurry to learn! So I found...

Other seeded Americans on the women's side include No. 21 seed Varvara Lepchenko, No. 25 Venus Williams and No. 29 Sloane Stephens. The 19-year-old Stephens is seeded at a Grand Slam event for the first time in her career.

Henry VIII succeeded his father Henry VII in 1509. He is well known for his six marriages and for ordering the dissolution of religious houses which took place between 1535 and 1539. Aided by his ministers, Cardinal Wolsey and Thomas Cromwell, his reign was characterised by ambition abroad and ruthlessness at home. His quest for a male heir and a divorce from his first wife Catherine of Aragon led to his establishing himself as head of the Church in England in place of the Pope in 1535

Friday January 18th 2013 at noon.
^this says the median date since '05 has been 22.625, which would mean January 22nd at exactly 3 PM. So, that's my guess.
it would likely happen Sun-Tues because tickets would go onsale that upcoming Friday.

I'm betting either this Friday to get some long weekend buzz before ticket sale.....or the Tues after MLK day...because really....they've proved they don't need buzz to sell out.
They will announce the Line-Up right after Bowie officially tells them "NO" yet again and they concede and put out their slightly watered down version.
I got a good vibe for next thursday!
