Comments about Suunto Quest Watch:
If you have a big goal, but you're not sure how to get there, or you need some help with motivation, OR even if you're a constant over-trainer, this is the watch- or I should say "wrist-top computer"- for you. Go to movescount.com, find a training plan that works for you, and the Suunto Quest will tell you what to do from there on out. Set the alarm on the watch and it'll wake you up and put you on notice: "training day" shows up on the watch and you don't have any excuses.Definitely get the heart-rate monitor, because then it'll actually tell you during your workout if you need to push the intensity or actually hang back a bit because you're overtraining. You can see in real time the number of hours you need to recover from your activity, and then you can watch as the little arrows start to recede and it's time to train again.After your workout, you get a Suunto training effect number that gives you an indication of how intense (and how helpful) your workout was in relationship to others you have done.If you're a runner, get a foot pod and you'll get distance in addition to the HR.I love this thing. Just get it. You won't be disappointed.

As the battle to stop Sustainable Development grows, it is important that activists have clear definitions of their points as they deal with elected officials and planners who are making policy in their community. Below is a start in defining private property rights.
In a "Fifth Amendment" treatise by Washington State Supreme Court Justice Richard B. Sanders (12/10/97), he writes: "Our state, and most other states, define property in an extremely broad sense." That definition is as follows:
Property in a thing consists not merely in its ownership and possession, but in the unrestricted right of use, enjoyment, and disposal. Anything which destroys any of the elements of property, to that extent, destroys the property itself. The substantial value of property lies in its use. If the right of use be denied, the value of the property is annihilated and ownership is rendered a barren right.
As a Founding Father, John Adams, said:
The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the law of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence.
President Calvin Coolidge said:
Ultimately, property rights and personal rights are the same thing.
Rancher and Property Rights Activist Wayne Hage said:
If you don't have the right to own and control property then you are property.
Private Property Rights mean:

TJ Perenara makes big hit then later gets punched in the face by Liam Messam
As we head into round fifteen of Super Rugby here is a quick look at two incidents from an eventful game between the Hurricanes and the Chiefs in Wellington last weekend. They're largely unrelated to one another, other than Perenara being involved in both.
Starting early in the game, dynamic scrumhalf TJ Perenara stopped fullback Robbie Robinson dead in his tracks with a solid chest high hit. It might have snuck up a little as Robinson ducked into it slightly, but Perenara showed that for a little guy, he packs a bit of punch.
And a punch is what he was on the receiving end of later in the game, when he and Liam Messam got in a bit of a tangle after winger Asaeli Tikoirotuma dropped in a heap as the Hurricanes tried to get the ball to take a quick lineout.
After a bit of push and shove, Messam, who is never far from a boxing ring, gave the nuggety number nine a short shot, which Perenara wasn't afraid to tell everyone about.
As you'll see [that video is on page two], referee Lourens Van Der Merwe felt that while it was a closed fist, it was more of a love tap than a genuine punch, so only a penalty was necessary.
Below is the big collision early in the game, and you can view the Messam punch here
The scuffle between Liam Messam and TJ Perenara. As you can see, it was a punch, but nothing serious, so only a penalty was awarded by referee Lourens Van Der Merwe.

I know I am gonna get lambasted here and my manhood and knowledge of rugby questioned but I wouldn't mind seeing a yellow for the short punch. A closed fist to the head is a straight red, this was done for no reason other than to intimidate the opponent or start a fight, I'd have no problem seeing a yellow for that. I hate all of the pushing and shoving after the whistle, its dumb in hockey its dumb here.

Many Rugby fans, or the princesses, are slowly deteriorating into soccer fans where they believe that any type of physicality that frightens them should be penalized to its fullest, whilst hoping for extreme bans. I see it in almost every RD blog and its disgustingly feminine.
TotesMcGoates May 24, 2013 1:46 am
Silly stuff from Messam, he could have easily got a yellow for that. I'm glad the officials had enough sense to realise that there was nothing much in it. Correct call and some good officiating from the ref and also the TMO.

Let's get realistic here, people. If they can manage 150kg/force impacts, they might as well take a little push or a pathetic quarter punch which seemed more like a friendly gesture than a violent act... Players today would do anything to start whining on the ref. There's no honor left in rugby anymore. Disgraceful.
matt May 24, 2013 5:18 pm
And for the penalty in the first clip, I'm glad he was penalised, people get away with that sort of thing on pretty much every kick. We complain that too much kicking is ruining the game, but it would be a damn sight more interesting if players were actually allowed to get to the ball like they're supposed to.

1st offence:
Blew the whistle when touch judge had flag out.
Conferred with the touch judge to find out the offence.
Didn't go overboard and left it as just a penalty.
Heard about incident.
Used all tools available to him (TMO).
Used his judgement to award a penalty and nothing more on a very "weak" punch.
If I were to judge him on the videos here alone I'd give him 10 out of 10..

You may be right, although: look at him, wearing a different jersey just to stand out in the middle of all this men!
DrG May 24, 2013 11:38 am
The subsequent hit from TJ was brilliant. Nice to see a 9 throwing themselves in the mix.
Then the Chiefs 11 again, no idea why he went down himself, maybe he got a bash in the spuds, or just winded, I'm not sure if we could say he was milking anything... looked like a "dive" but then again, that sort of action could be what you'd do if you did get winded.
Then the "punch".. as others have said it COULD have been a yellow card; technically etc, however I am glad it wasn't. As the referee said, it was more of a push punch than anything else, and with the 9 latching on to Messam like that, it's no wonder he tried to swat him away.
Love the title though RD. Great video.

First Video: He did not see the shoulder charge, so consulted the assistant referee who gave a recommendation, and he took it (not like George Clancy ignoring Nigel Owens in the Italy-England game). I think a penalty was a bit harsh as charges like that are seen all the time.
Second Video: A bit of handbags, instead of flashing a yellow he wanted to double check what had happened with the TMO. When told it was just pushing he acted appropriately giving a penalty. Hence not ruining the game.

Class of 1963
Quarterback >>> 6-0, 185
(Colorado College)
1931-1932 Portsmouth Spartans, 1934-1938 Detroit Lions
Earl Harry Clark ... Colorado College All-American, 1928 ... Called signals, played tailback, did everything superbly well ... Quiet, quick-thinking, exceptional team leader ... NFL's last dropkicking specialist ... All-NFL six of seven years ... NFL scoring champ three years ... Generalled Lions to 1935 NFL title ... Scored 368 points on 42 TDs, 71 PATs, 15 FGs ... Player-coach final two seasons ... Born October 11, 1906, in Fowler, Colorado ... Died August 5, 1978, at age of 71.
Dutch Clark's story doesn't fit the ordinary picture of an all-time great. In 1929, he became the first Colorado College football star to be named All-America, yet he didn't play pro football until almost two years after he graduated, when he joined the Portsmouth Spartans for the 1931 season.
He retired from the pro game after two All-Pro seasons to become head coach at the tiny Colorado School of Mines. However, Clark returned to pro football in 1934 rejoining his team, which by then had been sold and had become the Detroit Lions. For the next five years, Clark, from his tailback position, was the general in Detroit's famed infantry attack that in 1936 set a team rushing record that stood for 36 years.
He was called the quarterback because he called the plays. A true triple-threat back, Dutch consistently finished among the leaders in rushing and once completed 53.5 percent of his passes in a season when the league average was just 36.5 percent. He also led the league in scoring three times, kicked field goals and extra points and, is generally considered the last of the great drop kickers.
The versatile Clark was All-NFL six of the seven seasons he played. Although a great athlete, Dutch was not particularly fast and had such poor eyesight he had trouble seeing his receivers. According to teammates, though, he had the uncanny knack of being in the right place at the right time. Furthermore his teammates swore that no one could follow blockers as well as Dutch.
Humble, Clark was always conscious of his role as team leader. So unassuming, he sometimes avoided calling plays directed his way for fear of hogging the limelight. "If Dutch stepped on the field with Red Grange, Jim Thorpe, and George Gipp," a rival coach once said, "Dutch would be the general."

Serve them 3 parts hot chocolate to one part spirit. Michael is particularly fond of the pairing of Recchiuti Dark Hot Chocolate with St. George Single Malt, an artisan whiskey made by St. George Spirits of Alameda, Calif. (www.stgeorgespirits.com.) Or get creative with different spices such as ground cardamom, cayenne pepper, fresh mint or basil! For more recipe suggestions and serving tips please download the pdf.
Serve the best hot chocolate you can find, such as Recchiuti's Dark Hot Chocolate (6-8 servings/12 ounces). Made of the highest-quality blend of pure chocolate, Recchiuti's Dark Hot Chocolate is sold in chocolate pistoles (small pieces) rather than powder, allowing the chocolate to melt into a smooth, rich quaff when hot water is added.
Serve your hot chocolate in small, four- to six-ounce portions. For the fastest, frothiest results, Michael Recchiuti suggests using an espresso steamer to heat and blend the chocolate and water. Alternatively, you can blend chocolate with hot water using an immersion blender or whisk. Keep warm over a double boiler.
Serve them 3 parts hot chocolate to one part spirit.
Set out garnishes for guests to embellish at will--vanilla flavored creme fraiche, loose whipped cream, cinnamon sticks--even grown-up marshmallows, such as Recchiuti's fresh Vanilla Bean Marshmallows.

Song of Susannah: The Dark Tower VI (Dark Tower #06)by Stephen King
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Susannah Dean is possessed, her body a living vessel for the demon-mother Mia. Something is growing inside Susannah's belly, something terrible, and soon she will give birth to Mia's "chap." But three unlikely allies are following them from New York City to the border of End World, hoping to prevent the unthinkable. Meanwhile, Eddie and Roland have tumbled into the state of Maine — where the author of a novel called Salem's Lot is about to meet his destiny...
"[B]racingly strong as it veers toward its Armageddon-like conclusion....The sixth installment of this magnum opus stops short with the biggest cliffhanger of King's career." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
"King's epical Dark Tower hastens to a close, and its penultimate volume is one of the speediest....[He] keeps us on tenterhooks throughout — and leaves us there." Booklist
"King brilliantly juggles all the plot elements. The last three chapters are a triple shot to the gut, guaranteed to push the buttons of even the most hardhearted reader. It all ends with a cliff-hanger that promises one heck of a climax..." Denver Post
"[T]his penultimate volume winds its way nimbly through the time-space continuum....King has his readers where he wants them: breathlessly waiting for more." Library Journal
"Hauntingly surreal and almost supernaturally enthralling, King's Dark Tower saga is a monumental work of fantastical fiction created by a master wordslinger." Paul Goat Allen, BookPage.com
"[A]lmost works as a stand-alone novel, and is highly recommended for readers who enjoy the more metafictional side of King's oeuvre....Song of Susannah is by far the best of the sequence so far." Matt Thorne, The Independent (U.K.)
"Self-deprecating, scatological, at times wickedly funny, as familiar with Godzilla movies and the guy behind the Wizard of Oz as he is with the sagas of gods, King turns a potential recipe for literary meltdown into what just might be a masterpiece." Faren Miller, Locus
"[King] pulls off a neat literary trick in Song of Susannah, one this reviewer won't give away. It's something few writers could get away with, but Stephen King, as even his critics will acknowledge, is no ordinary wordsmith." Philadelphia Inquirer
"[Song of Susannah] finishes with every major character, even the author himself, in terrible jeopardy....[King's] myriad fans should be thankful that they and he have come this far." San Francisco Chronicle

Stephen King
"The Dark Tower VI: Song of Susannah" with 10 full-color illustrations by Darrel Anderson
The next-to-last novel in Stephen King's seven-volume magnum opus, "Song of Susannah" is at once a book of revelation, a fascinating key to the unfolding mystery of the Dark Tower, and a fast-paced story of double-barreled suspense.
To give birth to her "chap," demon-mother Mia has usurped the body of Susannah Dean and used the power of Black Thirteen to transport to New York City in the summer of 1999. The city is strange to Susannah...and terrifying to the "daughter of none," who shares her body and mind.
Saving the Tower depends not only on rescuing Susannah but also on securing the vacant lot Calvin Tower owns before he loses it to the Sombra Corporation. Enlisting the aid of Manni senders, the remaining katet climbs to the Doorway Cave...and discovers that magic has its own mind. It falls to the boy, the billy-bumbler, and the fallen priest to find Susannah-Mia, who, in a struggle to cope — "with" each other and with an alien environment — "go todash" to Castle Discordia on the border of End-World. In that forsaken place, Mia reveals her origins, her purpose, and her fierce desire to mother whatever creature the two of them have carried to term.
Eddie and Roland, meanwhile, tumble into western Maine in the summer of 1977, a world that should be idyllic but isn't. For one thing, it is real, and the bullets are flying. For another, it is inhabited by the author of a novel called "'Salem's Lot, " a writer who turns out to be as shocked by them as they are by him.
These are the simple vectors of a story rich in complexity and conflict. Its dual climaxes, one at the entrance to a deadly dining establishment and the other appended to the pages of a writer's journal, will leave readers gasping for the saga's final volume (which, Dear Reader, follows soon, say thank ya).
About the Author
Stephen King is the recipient of the 2003 National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters and the author of more than forty books, all of them worldwide bestsellers. Among his most recent are Cell, From a Buick 8, Everything's Eventual, Dreamcatcher, On Writing, Hearts in Atlantis, and Bag of Bones. He lives in Bangor, Maine, with his wife, novelist Tabitha King.

Bob Marley
Associated Press
With his superb songs and arrangements, his rapt appearance and charismatic stage personality, Bob Marley and his group, the Wailers, won audiences for reggae all over the world, and influenced countless other musicians. Mr. Marley's concerts were hours-long, almost mystical events, with whole arenas standing and swaying to the insinuating rhythms and reiterated chants of his songs. Phrases such as "get up, stand up, stand up for your rights" - expressing the conviction that God would redeem the world despite its present sufferings - became anthems for his many admirers.
Mr. Marley died of cancer at the age of 36 in 1981. His cancer was diagnosed after the Wailers' final concerts at Madison Square Garden a year before. Critics described those concerts as mesmerizing, and Mr. Marley was hailed for his "spellbinding performance" and "intense singing and electric stage presence."— John Rockwell

While there are certainly loads of lovely ladies who subscribe to a singular style credoÂ--like polished and pretty, luxe bohemian, or borrowed-from-the-boys insoucianceÂ--we always embrace those fashion-forward femmes who march to the beat of their own drums and constantly experiment with their ensembles. Today's Girl of the Month is a perfect example: the Georgia-born model-turned-musician Charlotte Kemp Muhl has a protean fashion persona that is constantly shapeshifting and unique. The face of Maybelline, bassist of GOASTT, and co-founder of Chimera Records (along with boyfriend and band mate, Sean Lennon) is known to rock super disparate styles, including everything from a Victorian-era costume to a '50s prom dress with ratty sneakers to a lingerie-inspired evening ensemble. Needless to say, Kemp Muhl's look is a bit hard to pin down, but we wanted to highlight some of her favorite outfit obsessions in today's GOTM feature. You'll notice that most of our subject du jour's selections are vintage, but that doesn't mean you can't achieve Kemp Muhl's look with some smart contemporary clothing, so be sure to read on for all the details!
Spotted at the Hermes S/S 10 show in Paris, Kemp Muhl got some mileage out of her favorite baby blue kimono (and lipstick!). These vintage robes are clearly an obsession of hers; she not only collects them, but also has enlisted the avant-garde designing trio threeASFOUR to rework some of her favorite antique pieces. Paired with a vintage slip dress, caramel flats, and a furry cross-body bag, Kemp Muhl keeps the look from veering into Violet from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory territory, and makes it befitting for a modern, slightly eccentric stylesetter. If you want to create your own global boudoir ensemble, make sure you check out The Opy Jacket ($215) from Winter Kate by Nicole Richie. It mimics the subtle print and springy color palette of Muhl's kimono, but its shorter hemline is more practical for everyday wear.
While Kemp Muhl obviously knows how to put together an offbeat bohemian outfit, it's worth noting that she's equally adept at creating a sophisticated ensemble with a hint of sauvage chic. Just look at the sheer blouse (a key piece for this season) and demure pencil skirt she selected to attend a threeASFOUR fashion show in New York. Of course, our GOTM made it her own by accessorizing with a headdress that was a gift from her boyfriend after a stay in the Wyoming mountains. Get a similarly sexy ensemble via Camilla and Marc's Simeon the Proud Dress ($490) or alternatively with a smart top and skirt combo like ASOS' Sheer Seam Shirt ($48) and D&G's Pencil Skirt ($335). If you like the statement-making headpiece, but don't have a trip to the reservation on your agenda, let us suggest Aqua's Quilted Rabbit Fur Aviator Hat ($70) instead.
Our next featured look is a bit more playful, but still completely in line with Kemp Muhl's love of all things lacy and sheer. Seen at the I Heart Ronson JC Penney party in August, she wore a sweet yet sexy vintage babydoll with black banding at the neck and hem. And while the dress is darling and daring, it's Kemp Muhl's footwear selection that really stands out! The brown and black spectator boots were custom ordered and handmade in Italy. (Our GOTM admits to a serious addiction to all things Victorian and often satisfies her obsession with treasures from New York City's Exquisite Costume boutique, which not only is always stocked with treasures from all eras, but is also a favorite of fellow celebrity clothing aficionado Chloe Sevigny.) If you're on the hunt for a like-minded look, we must direct you to ASOS' Contrast Lace Trim Dress ($77) or Topshop's Laura Petal Dress ($124)Â--two amazing apparel alternatives. If you like the look of Kemp Muhl's footwear, try Klub Nico's Beatrice Lace Up Ankle Booties ($200).
And finally, we have Kemp Muhl's most conservative outfit, wearing a double-breasted nautical dress, which contrasts nicely with her darling pigtails and out-of-this-world pout. We love her beauty look: pigtails are another must-try trend for spring (just look to Prada's S/S 10 show for inspiration) and bright red lips are a perpetual editorial favorite (try Maybelline's Color Sensational Lipcolor ($7.50) in Very Cherry or Dior's Crème de Gloss ($27) in Red Venetian Satin 851). Wear them both with Eva Franco's Riley Dress ($150) or ASOS' Dahlia Sailor Playsuit ($103), you'll get our GOTM-endorsed style stat!

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
Phase two. ATOMIC biathlon star christoph sumann (35) is now starting to intensify his training. At the same time a new generation of world cup skis with the revolutionary featherlight technique is being produced at the atomic factory. Sumann, "I am fully concentrating on the training. And the whole ATOMIC team is completley involved in making sure we'll enter the cross-country ski run with the best material."
Roller skiing up the Glacier route at the Dachstein mountain in pouring rain, heading towards the shooting standing in full speed, raising heavy dumbbells in the gym – ATOMIC biathlon ace Christoph Sumann is speeding up his summer training. "Phase One has been completed", the self-confident policeman, who holds nine biathlon World Cup victories and two Olympic silver medals, claimed. "The basic stamina training is over now, we are now raising the intensity of the training – and shooting is especially important." The ten-time Austrian Champion is training together with former World Championship and brand mate Dominik Landertinger (23) to get in shape for the World Championships at the end of February 2012 in Ruhpolding (Germany), that is known as a kind of Mecca for biathlon.
While Sumann has started Phase Two of his preparation, the same accounts for ATOMIC. The new generation of ATOMIC Featherlights has just been produced and now the racing machines enter the qualifying process. Racing Manager Nordic, Roman Toferer, explains, "In summer we are currently working in the snow tunnel in Oberhof in Germany. In each qualifying run, 50 to 70 pairs of skis pass a qualifying sliding a slope and will be ranked according to their performance. Only the fastest skis will be handed over to our top athletes." Cross-country ski run stars like Christoph Sumann, using the overall ATOMIC packages skis-binding-boots, appreciate this service, "In my preparations I can fully focus and concentrate on myself knowing the ATOMIC crew and my serviceman Rudi Janach make sure to find the ideal material for me."

PROVIDENCE -- Votes to establish a state budget are annually strange and unwieldy affairs, but the $8.2 billion document that squeaked through the House of Representatives Wednesday night with just two votes to spare was one for the books.
It featured the nearly unprecedented defeat of an entire budget article, which knocked the carefully crafted house of cards $12.9 million out of balance, sending lawmakers and staffers scrambling to fill that yawning hole with cuts from other areas of government. For the first time in recent memory, representatives were sent home early Wednesday morning without a final budget vote, forcing them to return nearly 13 hours later to finish the job.
Looming over the entire exercise was the $2.5 million allocation to make an initial payment on the ill-fated 38 Studios bonds that threatened to run the entire process off the rails.
In the end, after several hours of back-and-forth debate, the House voted 50-20 to approve the tax and spending plan and send it to the Senate, where the debate is expected to be shorter, less rancorous and altogether more orderly. Just hours after the House vote, the Senate Finance Committee voted to approve the plan 9 to 1 with one abstention. Lincoln Rep. Edward O'Neill, an Independent, cast the lone no vote. The full Senate will take up the budget later today.
The reason the result in the House was so close is that the state Constitution requires a two-thirds vote on measures that allocate public funds for local or private purposes such as state aid to municipalities and school districts.
Just before midnight on Tuesday, representatives blindsided their leadership and budget writers by rejecting an article that took the $12.9 million from a previous year's surplus that had been earmarked to cover other expenses. Lawmakers who just two years before had gone through the wrenching process of a controversial state employee pension reform that is still tied up in the courts balked at the notion of not making the promised pension payment.
To make up that $12.9 million, the House voted to scoop $3 million from a proposed $10 million revolving loan fund designed to make it cheaper for cities and towns to borrow money for road and bridge repairs. Now that program will have just $7 million for the state's 39 municipalities to fight over to fund their various road projects. Pawtucket officials said last month they need $28 million to bring all of the streets in their city to an acceptable condition.
Also, $6 million, nearly half of the shortfall, will be made up by not filling vacant positions in various government departments. Another $3 million came from "fund swaps," in which departments that expected to receive one-time savings lost that money to the budget gap. Almost all of the rest of the remaining $900,000 will come from a mortgage settlement agreement entered into by the attorney general's office.
Numerous attempts to use the $2.5 million slated for the 38 Studios payment for different purposes failed. Among those were Glocester Republican Rep. Michael Chippendale's bid to put that money toward programs for the developmentally disabled – "If you vote no on this, I will pray for you," Chippendale told his colleagues – which lost on an 18-53 vote and one by Cumberland Rep. Karen MacBeth to funnel the $2.5 million to the 39 cities and towns, which went down to a 20-51 defeat.
As the chamber was about to pass judgment on the entire budget package, after picking it apart article by article in approximately 12 hours of debate, North Smithfield Rep. Brian Newberry, the House Republican leader, told the chamber "This is the only vote that really matters. At the end of the day, whether you voted for a particular article or not, when you vote for this budget, you own everything in it – the 38 Studios funding, whatever else is in it you may not like. This business where you vote against an article, but you vote for the budget, I'm tired of hearing that.
Warwick Rep. Joseph Trillo, also a Republican, said, "Because of this 38 Studios deal, compromises had to be made all over the place. The first compromise we had to make, we had to take the tolls off the Sakonnet River Bridge, so we took care of that." Tolls on the bridge expected to start July 1 will now be put off until Feb. 1 of next year and in the meantime a study committee will look a the need for tolls. House Finance Committee Chairman Helio Melo of East Providence said that during that period, the tolls on the Newport Pell Bridge would not increase, either.
Calling the 38 Studios money "the elephant in the room," Trillo said, "we could have stopped it if we really wanted to stop it."
Fellow Warwick Rep. Joseph McNamara objected to Trillo's referring to "deals that reflect on the integrity of our members," and Trillo was cautioned by Speaker Gordon Fox.
It barely slowed him down, however.
Referring to the 2010 vote that put $125 million into a loan guarantee program for the RI Economic Development Corp., $75 million of which went to 38 Studios, the video game start-up owned by former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling, Trillo said, "I want to know why I was lied to that night. And the only way I am going to know is with an investigation that does not come out of this state. The only way we are going to get that investigation is when we don't pay the bonds and let the insurance companies go for a full investigation and let the chips fall where they may."
MacBeth said she will ask for a federal investigation of the EDC loan guarantee program (which the House eliminated in another budget article). At the time of the 2010 vote, MacBeth said, those pushing for the program "looked us in the face and lied at us."

With the hot summer months upon us, what liquids should children be drinking, and how much should they drink?
Most of us hear a lot of talk about healthy eating, but what about healthy drinking? Studies suggest that increased consumption of sweetened sodas and sport drinks is helping fuel the obesity epidemic among children and teens.
"Most people would be really surprised if they knew how much sugar was in their favorite drink," says Tamara Sheffield, MD, spokesperson for Intermountain Healthcare's LiVe public service campaign. LiVe encourages children to have a healthy diet and be active.
"We've found that soft drinks provide a high amount of added sugar in the American diet," said Dr. Sheffield. "Since most beverages have been super'sized to 20 ounces or more, that's 15 to 20 teaspoons of sugar in the most popular soft drinks. What's even more alarming is that these are what we call empty calories. They don't provide the body with any nutrients, but they can lead to weight gain, which puts us at higher risk for health problems, including diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes."
So, what should parents and kids be drinking with meals, and to quench their thirst in general? Dr. Sheffield votes for water first.
"Water is a wonderful beverage," she says. "We should aim for drinking six to eight cups of water a day. It's a naturally 'high octane' option that not only quenches your thirst, it helps carry nutrients through your system. And, it's free."
Dr. Sheffield says that low fat or fat'free milk is a good choice, too, as it provides calcium along with important vitamins and minerals.
"If you're going drink juice, be sure it's 100 percent juice and drink it in moderation. You can dilute the calories and sugar by cutting it with water. Or, better yet-eat a piece of fruit instead," she advises.
Dr. Sheffield recommends that kids (with parental help) aim for less than 12 ounces per week of soda, sports drinks, lemonade, and other sweetened drinks. Juice should be limited to 6 ounces a day.
"There's the question of whether kids need extra beverages to avoid dehydration when they play sports, especially during the hot summer months," Sheffield says. "Basically, the average child athlete can and should get all the necessary nutrients and hydration by eating healthy foods and drinking plenty of water before, during and after exercise."
Sheffield notes that sports drinks may help if your child participates in endurance sports that last longer than an hour, such as long'distance running and biking, or high'intensity games of soccer, basketball, or hockey.
"But they're really not necessary for the casual athlete and can increase the risk of excess weight gain," she said. "And, they are definitely not for sedentary kids."
As for "energy" drinks, most of these drinks deliver as much caffeine as in one to three cups of coffee and a big dose of sugar-both of which can create a whole set of problems, says Sheffield.
"Many also contain herbal supplements, but their safety and effectiveness has never been tested in children," she said.
Parents and teens can find more expert advice on diet, activity and attitudes about weight management at the LiVe website at www.intermountainlive.org.

California State University Urges Faculty Union to Bring Furlough Option to Members for Vote
Claudia Keith, (562) 951-4800
(June 29, 2009) – In an effort to address a projected $584 million budget deficit for 2009-10, the California State University administration today urged the leadership of the California Faculty Association to bring the concept of a two day per month furlough to a vote of its members. Collective bargaining agreements between the CSU and its employee unions include provisions covering mandated non-retention and layoffs, but not furloughs. Each bargaining unit, therefore, must agree to negotiate furloughs.
CSU has met with the faculty union three separate times to discuss the furlough option, but to date, no vote of its members has been scheduled. There are approximately 23,000 faculty personnel, but only dues-paying members of the faculty union are allowed to participate in a vote.
"Time is of the essence and we need to prepare for the upcoming fall academic year on all of our campuses," said CSU Chancellor Charles B. Reed. "We have provided answers to the eight specific questions posed by the labor union during our last meeting, and are urging them to present the furlough option to their members for a vote. We need to move forward to address the massive budget cuts that the system is facing. This is an unprecedented fiscal crisis and it will take cooperation and shared sacrifice from all of us to get through this next year and beyond." The questions and answers discussed are found here.
Approximately 80 percent of CSU's budget goes toward employee salary and benefits, and the CSU is proposing to furlough all of its employees (with the exception of public safety personnel) in all classifications, including management and executives, to help close the anticipated budget deficit. To date, approximately 21,000 of CSU's overall workforce of 47,000 employees are committed to looking at furloughs as a way to address the budget deficit.
Although the state budget has not been finalized, the Governor's budget proposal would mean a $584 million cut to the CSU's general fund support for 2009-10. This represents a 13 percent reduction from 2007-08 in state support of the CSU. The furloughs, if accepted by all employees, would save approximately $275 million, and other cost-saving options are under discussion to address the remaining budget deficit. CSU Chancellor Charles B. Reed has indicated that the guiding principles of any action plan would be to "serve as many students as possible without sacrificing quality, and to preserve as many jobs as possible."
CSU has also initiated changes to Title 5 of the California Code of Regulations for management and executive personnel. The modifications would allow the system to alter provisions related to furlough, salary reductions and unpaid holidays. This change was put into place in order to meet a 45-day requirement should any action be needed at the July 21 CSU Board of Trustees meeting. The Title 5 revision can be found here.
A furlough is a mandated period of time off without pay. Furloughs differ from salary reductions and pay cuts in that they are temporary and do not affect employment status, or health benefit eligibility or pay rate for retirement benefits. Also, employees are not required to work on furlough days.

C- Posey is the best and is a winner. Mauer is great but has trouble playing the full year. I know Y. Molina is a proven winner but I have to put Wieters 2nd. Maybe a bit bias but I think he can overtake Y. Molina. What he brings everyday behind the plate would make me take him over Mauer.
1B Votto then Davis; Davis isn't just hot. He has escalated along the way to being at the level he is.
SS- Hardy has to be in the top 3. His D, top SS power and on-field leadership is why.
3B- I know Cabrera has to be #1 and Longoria #2 and even David Wright in there, but what if Manny doesn't slow down or he improves as many think he will? I know Cabrera rakes but what about the D? If Manny stays at this level would Cabrera actually make us better?
OF- Is there a better OF in baseball right now that combines offense and D?

Logitech was recently seen hiring Android developers for what they described as a ground breaking upcoming release. While it is not currently clear whether or not this is the groundbreaking release they referenced, the company is releasing a new Squeezebox app for Android users such as unlocked Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, LG Eve GW620, etc that will allow users to remotely control their Squeezebox. The app will utilizes a Wi-Fi connection and will allow users to use all of the usual controls that were not previously available in remote format.
The app will also utilize the album artwork for whatever music you are playing at the current time. It will be interesting to see if htis is the groundbreaking release that they previously referenced. The app will only be available for Android 2.1 or later. The app will reportedly work with the Squeezebox Touch, Squeezebox Boom and Squeezebox Duet.
The app is already available in the market, and more details can be found on the Logitech website, outlining all of the different uses that are included in the application. A full description is available there as well. It is good to see Logitech releasing applications for the Squeezebox which is a device that has received a lot of press over the course of the last few months, and many users were eagerly awaiting the release of an official remote app, since the device primarily works as an end-table music provider.
Now Logitech fans can start speculating about the hiring of the android developers. The description of the job on their website seemed to suggest a much larger project than a simple remote app, but the company has not had many releases within the Android market so this could be the project that they were referencing after all. Logitech will probably not publicly address the issue, especially if this is not the project that they were referencing.
Puremobile carriers wide range of cell phone accessories and unlocked android phone such as Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant unlocked, Samsung captivate i897, etc..

15 U.S. Code § 1606 - Determination of annual percentage rate
(a) "Annual percentage rate" defined
The annual percentage rate applicable to any extension of consumer credit shall be determined, in accordance with the regulations of the Bureau,
(1) in the case of any extension of credit other than under an open end credit plan, as
(A) that nominal annual percentage rate which will yield a sum equal to the amount of the finance charge when it is applied to the unpaid balances of the amount financed, calculated according to the actuarial method of allocating payments made on a debt between the amount financed and the amount of the finance charge, pursuant to which a payment is applied first to the accumulated finance charge and the balance is applied to the unpaid amount financed; or
(B) the rate determined by any method prescribed by the Bureau as a method which materially simplifies computation while retaining reasonable accuracy as compared with the rate determined under subparagraph (A). [1]
(2) in the case of any extension of credit under an open end credit plan, as the quotient (expressed as a percentage) of the total finance charge for the period to which it relates divided by the amount upon which the finance charge for that period is based, multiplied by the number of such periods in a year.
(b) Computation of rate of finance charges for balances within a specified range
Where a creditor imposes the same finance charge for balances within a specified range, the annual percentage rate shall be computed on the median balance within the range, except that if the Bureau determines that a rate so computed would not be meaningful, or would be materially misleading, the annual percentage rate shall be computed on such other basis as the Bureau may be regulation require.
(c) Allowable tolerances for purposes of compliance with disclosure requirements
The disclosure of an annual percentage rate is accurate for the purpose of this subchapter if the rate disclosed is within a tolerance not greater than one-eighth of 1 per centum more or less than the actual rate or rounded to the nearest one-fourth of 1 per centum. The Bureau may allow a greater tolerance to simplify compliance where irregular payments are involved.
(d) Use of rate tables or charts having allowable variance from determined rates
The Bureau may authorize the use of rate tables or charts which may provide for the disclosure of annual percentage rates which vary from the rate determined in accordance with subsection (a)(1)(A) of this section by not more than such tolerances as the Bureau may allow. The Bureau may not allow a tolerance greater than 8 per centum of that rate except to simplify compliance where irregular payments are involved.
(e) Authorization of tolerances in determining annual percentage rates
In the case of creditors determining the annual percentage rate in a manner other than as described in subsection (d) of this section, the Bureau may authorize other reasonable tolerances.

CARTHAGE — Few musicals have as unforgettable a title song as "Hello, Dolly!".
"I think (the audience) will easily remember the title number. The song is probably the most famous," said Courteney Stepanek.
Miss Stepanek will portray the inimitable Dolly Levi in Carthage Central High School's final presentation of the Tony Award-winning musical this evening. The play, with lyrics and music by Jerry Herman and book by Michael Stewart, debuted on Broadway in 1964 with songs such as "Dancing," "Before the Parade Passes By" and "It Only Takes a Moment."
Carol Channing, Ethel Merman and Barbara Streisand all played the title role in either stage or film incarnations.
"Dolly Levi is a matchmaker. She tries to get in everybody's business; she always wants to help everyone," said Cheyenne Shupp, who plays "heiress" Ernestina Money.
The story is set in 1890s New York City. Dolly Levi, after blowing into town, offers her matchmaking services to the community. She explains it best in the opening song "(Call on Dolly) I put my Hand In."
Dolly claims to be seeking a wife for half-a-millionaire Horace Vandergelder. But as the musical progresses, her real intentions become known.
"Dolly is a traveling businesswoman who's focused on Horace and trying to get his money. It's really this big event and only she knows what's going on," said Bradlee Duerr, who portrays the grumpy Mr. Vandergelder.
Dolly sets him up with hat shop owner Irene Molloy (Abigail Swanson) and later Miss Money. Along the way, Dolly assists artist Ambrose Kemper (Pedro Leos) in wooing Mr. Vandergelder's niece, Ermengarde (Megan Freitas). Thrown into the confusion are shop clerks Barnaby and Cornelius, portrayed by Austen Rodriguez and Khalid Robinson.
Rounding out the cast are Krista Temple (Minnie Fay) and Virginia Hebert (Mrs. Rose) and an ensemble of 20. Special guests include CCS teachers Christopher Autote, Sean McHale and Bob Renaud, fine arts director Richard Weber and district superintendant Peter Turner.
The musical director for the show is Mel Chalker. Jim Goodenbery is artistic director.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) - With summer comes the pesky mosquito. But they may not be biting you for the reasons you think. Here are five weird reasons you're getting bitten by mosquitoes.
Check out the full list from Reader's Digest: 10 Weird Reasons You're Getting Bitten By Mosquitoes
1. They love when you work up a sweat. You think they're drawn by the aroma of your "sweet blood," but it's really the carbon dioxide you exhale that makes them bee-line toward you. The harder you breathe, the more CO2 you emit, so you're especially attractive after a jog.
2. They know when you've been drinking. It's crazy, but they can tell when you've been drinking because your skin chemistry changes and it lures them in.
3. They love smelly feet. In fact, scientists have shown that they find your tootsies to be very alluring, second only to your hands.
4. The darker and more humid your yard is, the better. If you keep your lawn mowed, pool skimmed, and bushes trimmed, your backyard won't be very appealing. Removing puddles of stagnant water is also a great way to repel them - because that's where they like to lay their eggs.
5. If you're a woman who's expecting, you emit more carbon dioxide and your abdomen has a higher temperature than when you're not pregnant, drawing some of them right to you.
