With my first newborn son just arrived, I was wondering which ritual to perform on him so that he will be part of the Pastafarian community. I filled out 'Pastafarian' as my religion on the take-in sheet of the hospital, but the staff was not aware of the according ritual, nor am I.
I was thinking of doing a Christening-type of thing, but using tepid water (body temperature) in which ramen has been cooked instead of the ice cold water with rotten smell as they use in churches.
I am a firm believer in sticking to the letter of Scripture as i do not dare to twist the word of the FSM. Therefor I do not wish to interpret our religion, nor blend elements in from the christian sect.
I found very little or no scripture on the subject, so I hope by doing the Ramen water ritual I am not turning him into a child of Darkness.
Advice most welcome

Hello, loves! It's been a while, but I couldn't let my 3rd blog birthday pass without something to mark the occasion. Basically, the last twelve months have been mega busy on the personal and work fronts, which meant that I fell behind with watching and blogging the more recent shows. However, I shall quickly add before I get booted off the team that I have in fact been watching (or re-watching, in some cases) lots of classic anime, and some other fun series that finished airing in recent months/ years. These include: xxxHolic, Natsume's Book of Friends, Baccano!, Mushishi, Gankutsuou, Bartender, Humanity has Declined, Paranoia Agent, Tatami Galaxy, and Emma (still watching the last two in fact, so no spoilers please!). Clearly, many of these shows are also known as 'AWESOME', and so I thought I'd do something a little different in this year's anniversary post and write my thoughts on one of these instead: Gankutsuou. (Warning: contains light spoilers.)

Dr. Larry Thompson Featured on Cover of October SRQ Magazine!
Oct. 21, 2010 - Ringling College of Art and Design President Larry Thompson is featured in a 6-page article in the October edition of SRQ magazine complete with accompanying cover. Dr. Thompson's cover image is made up of hundreds of tiny thumbnails of Ringling College student artwork!
SRQ Editor Lisl Liang introduces the article with her perspective on Dr. Thompson:
"If you're engaged in a conversation about cultural development and someone mentions the name "Larry," there is no need to clarify—everyone will know that you are talking about Larry Thompson, president of the Ringling College of Art and Design, local "patron saint" of the arts and the harbinger of the cultural coast of our future. We spend time with him this month exploring the origins of his zeal for the development of our cultural persona. Far from the days when his singular mission was specifically to eradicate the stereotype of the starving artist, Thompson's bailiwick has evolved well beyond the boundaries of his own academic institution."

Buzz: Are They Closer Than They Want Us To Believe?
In the NY Times, Jeff Z. Klein spoke with a member of the NHLPA who said that the two sides are far closer to striking a deal on a new CBA than we are being led to believe.
Klein writes that the member of the NHLPA says that the shouting match that took place on Friday, between Chris Campoli, Ron Hainsey and owners Craig Leipold and Murry Edwards has been a "major exaggeration" and that the meetings are held in a very professional matter where "no one even raises their voice."
Klein is told that while the two sides are far apart on contract issues, they are actually very close on the issue of honoring all contracts.


text: Drivers cruising along 100 North near 700 East in Price last week may have thought the drill rig in the vacant lot was looking for oil or water. Finding either would have been bad news, because this is the site of the planned multimillion-dollar county office complex. Drillers from RB&G Engineering were doing another round of test holes to make sure that the geology and hydrology would not pose any problems for the structure. County engineer Curtis Page said things look good so far. There is no sign of high ground water in the area near the street where the building will be sited. Page said the building will be situated closer to the street, with parking and access behind and to the sides. The project is intended to consolidate various county functions in one central place instead of having them scattered. The current county offices are not adequate for that.

Drummers, listen to Billy Stevenson!
He says he's been told that he's good at "playing the song" rather than just keeping the beat. I would agree 100% and I would add that his sense of balance between keeping his parts interesting and playing only what makes the song sound better is pretty much unrivaled in the rock/punk genre.
Tell me his drum and cymbal work on Part I and Part III aren't freakin' delicious-sounding and perfect for the song!
Stevenson is a treat to listen to and watch: Lemonheads, ALL, DESCENDENTS, Only Crime, The Last, you name it! Thanks Bill!

Friday, February 15, 2013
By Joseph Andrew Lee
Ashley Leigh Miller and Che Brown could be the quintessential military family.
They met while serving in the Army as human resource specialists and saw their love blossom into a small family. Between Che's deployments to Afghanistan, the couple got married and had a boy named Isaiah.
Everything was going well for the new Army couple until they were hit with some unexpected news: They would both be deployed to Afghanistan – simultaneously.
"I was terrified to leave my newlywed husband and our 1-year-old son," Miller wrote in an email. "We both knew it could happen but it was still a shock."
Neither Miller nor Brown could be sure how they were going to communicate with each other or their newborn son, for that matter, who is staying with his grandmother in Missouri.
"I just hoped we had good Internet connections and would be able to Skype with each other weekly," Miller wrote.
Unfortunately, there are few guarantees when deployed. Skype is rarely available because of limited bandwidth and operational tempo makes it difficult to connect to troops deployed elsewhere.
They would have one chance to meet in person, when Brown first arrived in theater – three months after Miller's arrival. He was in-processing and she was at Bagram Air Field for a smallpox vaccine.
With only a few days to see one another, Miller concocted a plan to send a message of love home to their newborn son. She took her husband's hand and led him into the USO Bagram East center, where she had spent time with her platoon three months earlier.
"I used the United Through Reading program when I first arrived to send a video home to my husband and Isaiah," she wrote. "I thought it was a great idea to send a video home to them because it made us all three happy!"
Now that she had her husband there with her, she decided to do one more recording.
"When we had some off time I told him we should do one together for Isaiah and he agreed. We both loved it and thought it was a wonderful idea," she added. "I hadn't seen my husband in three months and it was awesome to reconnect."
The USO's partnership with United Through Reading® gives deployed troops the opportunity to read their children a book and be with them in spirit. Through the program, troops can record themselves reading a book to their child, then send both the book and the DVD home for their family to enjoy.
"There was no better thing for us to do with those few hours we had together than read a book to send home to our son. If we had [United Through Reading] at our FOB I would send my son a book every month."

United Through Reading works with military commands deployed around the globe to record troops reading and send DVDs back to their families. Visit the organization's How to Participate page for more details.

Chicago Fire forward Quincy Amarikwa proved rather effective in what time he got on the field last year (he scored three goals in 299 minutes). In his time off of it, he also proved to be perhaps the top MLS player in the league's Fantasy Manager game.
With the start of the 2014 MLS season just two days away, he's presenting a challenge: #BeatQuincy at MLS Fantasy Manager... See below:
Join the "#BeatQuincy Challenge" League on the MLS Fantasy Manager and you could win a signed-Quincy Amarikwa jersey along with other prizes!

Heading to Arizona to catch the Fire play FC Tucson this weekend? Following the match (set for 1:00pm Mountain Time), the club is hosting a Happy Hour for Fire supporters in the hotel bar at the Desert Diamond Casino (7350 S. Nogales Hwy; Tucson) from 5:30-7:30pm MT.
Fire Head Coach & Director of Soccer Frank Yallop as well as Technical Director Brian Bliss will be on hand for the event, the first few drinks are on us and appetizers will be provided.
All Fire fans in and around Tucson are welcome to attend!
As someone that's taken in Section 8 Chicago trips to Montreal, Toronto, Kansas City, Columbus, Philadelphia, New York and in a month, Portland, I've come to appreciate the character and drive that is inherent in a traveling supporter's blood as they lend their voice to help the Fire on the road.
And while it's amazing to see so many take air trips, bus rides or insanely long travels in a stuffy van for a regular season match, I've also come to appreciate some of the faces I see every year in preseason.
For "The West Wing" aficionados out there, it reminds me of Bradley Whitford's character Josh Lyman trying to get to Port St. Lucie, Fla., for a New York Mets intrasquad game during Season 2's "Stackhouse Filibuster" just so catcher Mike Piazza could say, "Dude" to him.
At this point, if you're not understanding the Sorkinese I'm throwing at you, please meet Ray Cook, the Chicago Fire's very own version of Josh Lyman (more in the sports fan sense).
Ray traveled to Tucson via Amtrak from Chicago and even beat the team here (arriving Friday). I've seen Ray each of the last four preseasons (usually in Charleston, S.C.) but as he says, his tradition of making it out prior to the start of every campaign dates back to 2000 and has taken him to such places as Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., Jackson, Miss., New Orleans and Guadalajara, Mexico.
This is why he does it...
You'd have to say with all the snow in Chicago last night (and this winter), he's looking pretty smart.
We here at Chicago-Fire.com love a bit of humor and creativity around holidays.
Enter #cf97 supporter Hannah Goulet (@HannahGoulet) who always seems to integrate the Fire into her holiday cheer (see the below photo of her Fire-themed Christmas cookies from December).

That last one... My long line of selfies is finally paying off... Thanks Hannah!
The Numbers Game rolls on Tuesday with the latest contestants being the center back duo of Jhon Kennedy Hurtado and Patrick Ianni, who were recently acquired from the Seattle Sounders in a trade that sent Jalil Anibaba the other way.
Let's start with the Hurtado. The 29-year-old center back will continue to don the same #34 he wore for five seasons in Cascadia. Asked why he's chosen a somewhat "off the beaten path" soccer number, Hurtado explained 34 was the number he was given when trialing with AC Milan in early 2009.
"The opportunity was a special one and it's stayed with me ever since," he told Chicago-Fire.com last week.
Though 34 isn't the most common soccer number, two Fire players have worn it before. Former Trinidad & Tobago international Osei Telesford was the club's #34 in 2007 while Austin Washington wore it from 2008-2009.
Meanwhile, Ianni has chosen to suit up wearing the #6 for the Fire this season. Interestingly, Ianni and Anibaba weren't just in part swapped for each other but they've also taken one another's number at their new club as the former Fire defender will suit up as Seattle's #4 this season.
Asked about the choice of #6, Ianni said, "I just wanted a lower, defender's number," but the only two digits that fit the criteria for the Fire were #2 and #6.
Althought the #2 is free for anyone to choose, Ianni says he took into account the legacy of assistant coach C.J. Brown's 13 years wearing #2 for the Men in Red and the fact that it's only been worn one other time for 27 minutes by another Fire player (Wells Thompson in 2012).
In the end, the choice was simple.
"I have a ton of respect for what C.J. did here wearing that number and what that means to Fire supporters. The six shirt suits me just fine."
QUESTION: Ianni becomes the ninth player in Fire history to wear #6 for the Men in Red. How many of the other eight can you name? (SCROLL BELOW FOR THE ANSWER).
ANSWER: Brian Bates (1998), Tom Soehn (1998-2000), Sergi Daniv (2001), Kelly Gray (2002-2005), Brandon Prideaux (2008-2009), Julio Martinez (2010), Peter Lowry (2010), Jalil Anibaba (2011-2013).
I think it was my grandfather that once told me, "When life hands you -40 degree wind chill, you have to stay warm." We were happy to see so many folks brave Monday's #Chiberia cold wearing Fire gear and received a ton of great photo submissions.
Congrats to our winner Jeffrey Neavor (@Neavor4) for his winning tweet (at the very bottom)... Jeffrey's won a 2014 Chicago Fire Winter Pack!

The Chicago Fire is proud to show its ongoing support for the Greater Chicago Food Depository by participating in the organization's Social Donation Plate campaign. The objective of the campaign is to help raise awareness and collect funds for hunger relief this holiday season.
The campaign features special, customized social donation plates from prominent Chicago figures, institutions and teams. Supporters of the cause will be asked to virtually "sign" their favorite plate and make a modest donation. Once a donation is made, the user experience allows individuals to "pass the plate" to friends via social media.
In support of hunger relief, the Fire has created a social donation plate for fans and supporters to virtually sign and pass along within the community.
"We're happy to continue our partnership with the Greater Chicago Food Depository and assist them in their efforts to raise awareness and funds for hunger relief," said Chicago Fire Senior Director of Community Relations Jessica Yavitz. "I think the social donation plate campaign is a great way for our fans to engage in the cause, as well. We're thrilled to help promote this unique project and collaborate to end hunger in our community."

One of my favorite days of the year is the day the MLS schedule is released.
For many fans, this announcement means compiling a list of blackout days where the Fire are playing at Toyota Park. For Fire fans not residing in the Chicagoland area, it means finding out when the Men in Red will be visiting your nearest MLS team. But for someone like me who has been on quite a few road trips (over 50 but not as many as this guy), the schedule release day means not only looking at the home fixtures but also the away ones.
Questions I asked myself earlier today: Does Toronto away fall on weekend instead of a Wednesday night? How much does it cost to fly to Portland in March? These important questions get answered on this special day.
With that in mind, let's take a look at five exciting dates in the 2014 Fire calendar:
Week 2 – Portland away – Saturday, March 15
Ever since Portland came into the league in 2011, the Fire supporters umbrella, Section 8 Chicago, has had a very good relationship with the Timbers Army, Portland's main supporters group. The relationship is based on mutual respect and a shared "dislike" of all things Seattle.
Fire fans are always treated well in Portland and it's not uncommon for Fire and Timbers fans to hang out before and after the games, something you would never see Fire fans doing in Columbus or Kansas City.
The atmosphere at JELD-Wen Field is also second to none. Though is certainly isn't going to be the easiest away trip on the field or the lightest on the wallet, I think we will see quite a few Fire fans making the trip to Portland in Week 2 instead of traveling to LA to watch the Fire face Chivas in the season opener.
Week 6 & 22 – Montreal away – Saturday, April 12 and Sunday, August 16
The Fire were the Montreal Impact's opponents in the Canadian club's first home MLS back in 2012 and I was lucky enough to be at the game and had a great time.
That game was played indoors at the Olympic Stadium with a less than favorable playing surface – something many of the Fire fans observed firsthand the day before the game when we were invited to watch the team train (see photo above).
Now the Impact have Saputo Stadium refurbished, which provides another incentive for traveling Fire fans who may not have gotten there earlier this year.
Montreal is also a unique MLS city for a number of reasons. I can't think of another MLS city where fans can brush up on their French by talking to the locals or take in the spectacular Notre-Dame basilica while eating some amazing poutine!
Montreal can be quite cold in April, but luckily for Fire fans, the April date is only the first time the Men in Red visit The City of Saints. I hear the weather is a lot nicer in mid-August, when the Fire visit for the second time.
Week 11 – Columbus away – Saturday, May 24
Columbus or Fire House East as many Fire fans call it is the closest away trip of the season distance wise. Due to this fact, the number of Fire fans attending this match is exponentially bigger than most other away games.
In 2001, Fire fans went to Crew Stadium in their hundreds, even when the Fire was not playing! The Fire had been knocked out in the Conference Semifinals by the Los Angeles Galaxy and many fans turned up to cheer against LA (and for the then Frank Yallop-led San Jose Earthquakes) at MLS Cup.
There have been many highs experienced in Columbus, such as Paulo Wanchope's winning goal in a 2007 match after the game was delayed due to a torrential downpour. Fire fans were also 45 minutes away from MLS Cup in 2008 but for a Crew comeback in the second half which left Fire fans, including myself, devastated. There's also the 2012 invasion which saw 600 Fire supporters make the trek.
The Fire only play once at Fire House East this season and I expect to see a lot of red behind the goal on May 24.
Week 16 & 32 Kansas City away –Sunday, July 6 & Friday, October 10
Kansas City is another road trip that fans have attended in large numbers throughout the years. My first trip to Kansas City was a disappointing one, with the Fire losing to the Kansas City Wizards in the final of the U.S. Open Cup in 2004.
Since then, the Kansas franchise has a new name and a soccer specific stadium. You can no longer play the count the crowd game that we often did when the Wizards played at Arrowhead Stadium.
- DOWNLOAD: 2014 Home Regular Season Schedule (PDF)
Most fans travel to this game by bus thus skipping the "delights" of downtown Kansas City and the bus ride does offer one cool treat – a visit to the world's largest truck stop in Iowa.
Though SKC are not really a Fire rival (despite efforts made by the KC front office to make it into something bigger) there is certainly a dislike between the players and fans on both sides.
With the October 11 game coming so late in the season, it may be a pivotal one in terms of Playoff positioning.
Week 23 – Toronto away – Saturday, August 23
By far my favorite MLS city to travel to is Toronto. It's roughly the same distance from Chicago as Kansas City and again many fans travel to Canada on supporter's buses.
Each visit, Fire fans shack up at a great hostel where we run into soccer fans from all over the world. Toronto itself is a great city aside from the prohibitive drinking laws on weekends (who doesn't want to have a pint at 10am while watching the Premier League the next morning?).
BMO Field is located right on the shores of Lake Ontario and is thus left exposed and is often windy and chilly but the warm pies served at some of the concessions stands are an excellent halftime treat.
On the field, the Fire have had some good success against a TFC team that has languished near the bottom of the MLS table since starting in 2007. Thankfully, this match is on a Saturday in August so I expect a much larger contingent of Fire fans to attend.

It comes as little surprise, just a day after being named one of three finalists for the MLS Most Valuable Player award, gathered another important accolade Thursday as he was vote Section 8 Chicago's Supporters Player of the Year.
The award comes on the heels of Magee already taking the Club's Most Valuable Player and Golden Boot award just prior to the end of the 2013 regular season.
Mike will be on hand Saturday at A.J. Hudson's Public House (3801 N. Ashland) to receive his award and check for $1,500 to donate to the charity of his choice. The event begins at 6pm CT with the ceremony taking place at halftime of the MLS Eastern Conference Final Leg 2 between Sporting KC and Houston Dynamo.
See you there!

|Walgreens Rejected for King Street
|Written by Steve Frank
|Friday, 03 May 2013 06:03
It appears that no new Walgreens Drug Store will be constructed near downtown Boone in the near future, that after a full house public hearing last night at the Boone Town Council chambers. In a four-hour hearing of the Boone Board of Adjustments, a unanimous vote turned down the proposal
from Avenue D Development for the pharmacy and retail store at King Street across from the Daniel Boone Inn and next to Grace Lutheran Church. The board cited in their decision that the project would not be in general conformity with the town's comprehensive plan and blend with the small town nature of the downtown area. The room was filled beyond legal capacity with those interested in the proposal, with several expressing concerns about traffic at the spot where four lanes become two, while others spoke to support more local businesses over the large corporation. In the end, it was a unanimous denial vote from the planning board that ends that particular proposal for that parcel, currently occupied by Green Mother Goods and the former Bark Phone store location.

|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|September 2005
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|September 2015
|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|September 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
|Active Comparator: ETV
Procedure: Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy
A standard frontal burr hole will be made and an endoscopic camera used to visualize the floor of the third ventricle. A ventriculostomy will be created in the floor of the third using the surgeon's own preferred method of perforation.
|Active Comparator: CSF Shunt
Procedure: CSF Shunt Insertion
The procedure involves creating a burr hole in the frontal or occipital regions and cannulating the ventricle with a silastic catheter. This is then attached to a valve mechanism and distal silastic tubing which runs subcutaneously in the peritoneal cavity.
Detailed Description:
TVH is a relatively uncommon condition in infants, in which CSF accumulates in the brain's ventricles due to a blockage in outflow at the level of cerebral aqueduct. This can cause increased intracranial pressure, with adverse effect on brain development. The causes of this include congenital aqueductal stensois or acquired aqueductal stenosis from previous brain hemorrhage or infection.
TVH is currently treated through one of the following two approaches:
- Extra-cranial CSF diversion through ventricular shunts. Extra-cranial shunting has been the standard approach over the past few decades, since functional shunts were first developed and inserted successfully.
- Intra-cranial internal CSF diversion using endoscopic techniques. The principles of internal diversion were clear from the time neurosurgeons first understood the nature of hydrocephalus. However, internal diversion was never really practical or successful on a large scale until the more recent development of neuroendoscopy. There is currently a revived interest in diversionary hydrocephalus treatment through neuroendoscopic surgical techniques, with the primary focus on endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV).

The following shall determine student status:
1. The establishment of a new domicile in this state by an emancipated person has not occurred until he/she has resided in this state for a period of not less than 12 months.
2. No emancipated person shall be deemed to have gained residence while attending any educational institution in this state as a full-time student in the absence of a clear demonstration that he has established domicile in this state.
3. Once established, a domicile is not lost by intention to establish a new domicile.
4. The domicile of a married woman is normally that of her husband.
5. A person does not gain or lose in-state status by reason of his/her presence in any state or country while a member of the armed forces of the U.S., provided a member ofthe armed forces may obtain in-state status for himself/herself and his/her dependents by establishing his domicile in this state.
6. Upon moving to this state, an emancipated person employed full-time who provides evidence of domicile may apply for in-state classification for his spouse and unemancipated children after 12 consecutive months of residency and, provided such person is not himself in this state primarily as a full-time student, his spouse and unemancipated children may at once be so classified, and may continue to be so classified so long as such person continues his domicile in this state.
7. The spouse of any person who is classified or is eligible for classification as an in-state student shall likewise be entitled to classification as an in-state student.
RESIDENCE OR RESIDE denotes continuous and permanent physical presence within this state, provided temporary absence for short periods oftime shall not affect the establishment of a residence.

What version and distribution of Linux are you using? Does it seem to lockup on a specific page or pages? Does it lockup on pages using java?
I have netscape 4.7x lockups on occasion but, mostly on pages using java. I use Mozilla 0.9.4 as my primary browser. Works goods for the most part. Still has a few bugs. Renders pages better then netscape 4.7x. Fonts look alot nicer. I use Sun's java plugin 1.3.1 with it and it works much better on java pages then netscape. There is a slight hang (delay) sometimes when loading a page using a java applet after first starting Mozilla. Overall it works very good.

Anna Nicole Smith
Manuel Balce Ceneta/Associated Press
Anna Nicole Smith, a former Playboy centerfold model, actress and television personality, gained even more public attention with her legal fight over the estate of her husband, J. Howard Marshall II, an octogenarian multimillionaire who died in 1995, 13 months after the marriage. She went on to star in a reality show about her life that was savaged by critics and became a spokeswoman for the TrimSpa diet plan.
If her fame seemed hard to separate from notoriety, Ms. Smith did not appear to care, reveling in attention, in outfits that often went beyond revealing. She made a more somber appearance before the United States Supreme Court, when it heard arguments over an arcane point of law posed by the fight over Mr. Marshall's estate (the Court ruled in her favor on a procedural question) and after her son, Daniel, died in September 2006 while visiting Ms. Smith and her newborn daughter, Dannielynn, in the Bahamas.
Ms. Smith was found dead in a Florida hotel on Feb. 8, 2007, setting off a blaze of news coverage. Her death was later ruled an accident, a result of a combination of sleeping pills and a number of other medications. Even after her exhaustively covered burial in the Bahamas, a paternity fight for her daughter played out in the courts and the media. A DNA test indicated that Larry Birkhead, a photographer and former boyfriend of Ms. Smith, fathered Dannielynn. (By DEBORAH LIEDERMAN, April 11, 2007)

A change in the number of animals a farm can have before it has to comply with Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation rules could help small farms expand.
A state Department of Environmental Conservation rule change that takes effect May 8 will increase from 199 to 299 the number of cows a farm may have before having to comply with CAFO rules.
Farms considered CAFOs must comply with stricter standards that can carry a significant cost.
It involves coming up with particular plans, said Steven Ammerman, public affairs manager at the state Farm Bureau. It could mean structural changes to the farm. There are a lot of permitting requirements. Once a farm determines to cross that threshold, it can be quite costly.
Mr. Ammerman said that with the rule change, farms with fewer than 299 cows that were previously considered CAFOs will no longer carry that designation.
DEC spokesman Stephen W. Litwhiler said there are two farms in St. Lawrence County, four in Lewis County and five in Jefferson County that will no longer be considered CAFOs under the rule change.
Mr. Ammerman said the new regulations could spur growth in the region for farms that have wanted to increase their herds but could not afford to comply with the previous CAFO rules.
He did not have an estimate for a how many farms the new rule could impact.
