|Pioneers fall 34-14
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Saturday, 28 August 2010 09:30
The Watauga High football team self-destructed in the first half and dropped a 34-14 decision on Friday night against one of the winningest programs in the state of North Carolina.The Shelby Golden Lions, who lead the state with 688 wins in their storied history, broke the game open with 21 unanswered points in the second half. The Golden Lions did it with a powerful running game led by Bryan Moss and R.J. Ussery.
Those two combined for 235 yards and four touchdowns as Shelby (1-0) built a commanding 28-0 lead at the break.
"We gave up some big plays against this team last year," said WHS coach Tim Pruitt. "But they came in waves tonight. We didn't do a good job of containing their speed. We've got to do a better job defending against the spread."
But the Pioneers (1-1) showed some life in the second half. A 47-yard kick-off return by Trey Kavanaugh to start the third quarter ignited a seven-play, 71-yard drive that broke up the shut out. Caleb Watson closed out the drive as he scored on a three-yard run.
Shelby aided the drive by committing three penalties on the drive.
"Our guys showed a lot of fight." Pruitt said. "They came out and drove the field, scoring on our first possession of the first half."
Penalties and a 99-yard drive by the Golden Lions in the first half led to Watauga's downfall. With the game scoreless and the Golden Lions taking over inside their one-yard-line on their second possession of the game, they marched 99 yards in six plays. Moss closed out the drive as he rambled in from 51 yards away, giving Shelby a 7-0 lead.
The Pioneers also hurt themselves by committing 84-yards in penalties in the first half. As a matter of fact, the Pioneers had just five more yards of offense (89) in the first half than penalty yards.
For the night, the teams were flagged a combined 26 times.
"We lost our composure," said Pruitt. "And you can't do that against a program that's been playing this game for 100 years with the tradition they have. We also did a poor job of tackling. We just have to regroup and get ready for next week."
The Pioneers return home next Friday night to play Avery. Our coverage begins at 6:30 pm.

The Taiwanese company released a monitor that epitomises the shortcomings of first generation 4K displays.
Top-notch image quality and versatility is on offer, although this monitor isn't cheap and lacks some consumer-friendly features.
Philips' Moda 2 focuses on the complete entertainment experience with loud speakers and a quality screen.
The UT220HQL adds touch support to an otherwise standard FHD desktop monitor.
Even though it's not the cheapest 1080p 24-inch screen on the market, the BenQ EW2440 stands out with a flicker-free screen and accurate colors.
We can't argue with this panel's screen quality or innovative curved design, but it's far more expensive than conventional alternatives.
Samsung delivers a beautiful 27-inch curved HD monitor but, for the price, it leaves you wanting more.
Modern design and a stunning 4K IPS panel comes to the S277HK at a competitive price.
AOC's USB monitor suffers from two disappointing flaws that detract from its affordabiity.

NEWPORT–A strong inside presence and the ability to force turn-overs helped the Burlington Seahorses take down the North Country Falcons on Thursday night.
Despite the loss, NCU coach Brian Bonvechio saw some really positive things from his players.
"I am really happy with the intensity were are playing with on defense. We are really hustling, and I saw some great minutes from Jesse Breault and Chris LePage.
"I am going to put Chris on Tom Carton on Monday because he just battles and battles and battles. So our defensive intensity and our active hands was great, we just struggled offensively."
The loss leaves the Falcons at 2-13 while BHS moves up to 7-10.
In the JV contest, the North Country junior Falcons handed Burlington a 86-67 loss to improve to 7-8 on the season.
The boys will travel to Essex on Monday to take on the Hornets, with the JV's getting underway at 5:00 with the Varsity action started right after.

Submission Android App infects PCs running older Windows->
tlhIngan writes: "In an interesting turn of events, a couple of apps found the Play Store was found to contain a payload designed to infect the SD card and thus infect any older PC when the Android device was connected in drive mode. It doesn't appear to be designed to infect the Android device itself, just install an old exploit on the SD card that will infect the PC when connected. It relies on AutoRun, which while disabled in all modern versions of Windows, may still be on by default on older versions."

the best reviews
their picks
what to buy
When the weather outside is frightful, a fire certainly would be delightful -- but not everyone is lucky enough to have a fireplace. Instead, a space heater can offer a supplemental heat source in your home or office. It's important to note that space heaters aren't recommended as your only heat source, but they can be a great way to increase a room's temperature a few degrees or provide warmth in a drafty space without overheating the entire home. Some owners say they also use portable heaters to lower utility bills, but this depends on many factors, like your heating costs, insulation, how often your heater is used and more.
Note that this report covers electric space heaters intended for use inside the home. You can also find space heaters fueled by kerosene, natural gas and other combustible fuels. However, those are generally not recommended for use inside the home unless some type of venting to the outside is provided, and many states have banned unvented kerosene heaters for indoor use. For more information, see the section on space heater safety.
There are two basic types of electric space heaters: radiant and convection. Convection heaters -- like convection ovens -- move hot air around to create warmth. A fan blows air across internal heating elements and out into the room. This makes convection units especially effective for warming entire rooms or many people.
Ceramic space heaters are the most popular type of convection space heater. Electricity flowing through wires heats a ceramic element, which in turn heats the air. Almost all ceramic heaters include a fan to distribute the warmed air most effectively.
Some forced air heaters use a non-ceramic heating element to warm the air, and then use a larger, more powerful fan to spread that warmed air over a large area. Their fans can also pull double-duty to help cool rooms in the warmer months.
Convection also comes into play when liquid moves across a heating element. That's why, while it might seem counter-intuitive, oil-filled radiator style space heaters are considered to be convection heaters, even though they lack a fan. Oil filled radiators are slow to warm up, but they keep giving off heat long after they are turned off, making them a good choice for sleeping areas. Some radiator-style heaters use mica panels instead of heated oil to produce heat. These warm up faster than oil-filled designs, are lighter, and are flat enough to mount on a wall. However, they also cool down quickly, losing one of the key advantages of oil-filled radiators.
Radiant heaters, on the other hand, warm people or objects, not the air around them. The heat from these heaters doesn't circulate well and can't be used to warm a whole room, but for fast heat for a short time, they're more efficient than convection heaters. Traditional radiant space heaters are a bit more "old-school" than convection heaters and seem to be falling out of vogue. However, infrared space heaters with quartz elements still have a place where the primary goal is heating a person or a smaller area, and some can do a lot more.
To find the best space heaters, editors considered professional tests, expert reviews and user feedback. ConsumerReports.org has the most comprehensive coverage. Though not completely up-to-date, most of the space heaters covered there remain either current or available at retail. TheSweethome.com's coverage is a little more limited, but it looks at popular and well-reviewed space heaters, then tests to find a couple of top choices. Because some space heaters have been around for years, or have been updated only modestly, some older reviews by The New York Times and Good Housekeeping provide some help. We also rely heavily on user reviews, looking at feedback posted at Amazon.com, HomeDepot.com, Lowes.com, Walmart.com and elsewhere. These reviews provide the most up-to-date snapshot of how space heaters perform, and touch on long-term factors, such as the reliability of a specific model, that are beyond the scope of most expert testing. Using this feedback, we consider performance, safety and reliability to name the very best space heaters, along with some choices that could be worth considering for some buyers.
Elsewhere in this Report:
Space Heater Safety: Don't become a statistic. Follow these tips and guidelines for safe, effective use of your electric space heater.
Best Ceramic Space Heaters: Ceramic space heaters are popular for indoor use. These are the top choices, along with some good alternatives that are worth considering.
Best Oil-filled Radiator Space Heaters: Oil-filled radiators heat up slowly, but stay warm longer. That makes them a great option for some uses, and a not-so-hot one for others. We discuss the particulars and name the top performers.
Best Forced Air Space Heaters: These combine a powerful fan and a heater in one package. They are great choices for warming up large spaces quickly, but the best models can get costly.
Best Infrared Space Heaters: The benefits and drawbacks of infrared space heaters generates some heated debate. We look at these and other radiant heaters and tell you which ones are worth considering.
Buying Guide: Want to stay warm without burning a hole in your wallet? We run down the things to consider to find the right space heater for you home and your needs.

On Friday evening, the West Texas High Lady Comanches did a pretty good job on the defensive end in their District 1-1A opener against the #8 state ranked Gruver Lady Greyhounds in Gruver.
Unfortunately, 22 turnovers and struggles on the offensive end by the Lady Comanches gave the Lady Greyhounds to opportunity to pull away in the second half on their way to the 50-15 win.
In the first period, the Lady Comanches did a good job applying defensive pressure which limited Gruver's scoring opportunities early in the game.
The solid defense and jump shots by Madison Heston and Erin Summers kept the Lady Comanches within striking distance with the score 5-12 going into the second period.
A strong drive by Cheyenne Tull and a lay up by Katelyn Wilson put the Lady Comanches on the scoreboard to start the second period. But West Texas High would not put any points on the scoreboard in the final four minutes of the second period, leading to Gruver taking a 9-22 lead into halftime.
In the first two minutes of the third period, Tull and Wilson each put in a free throw for the Lady Comanches.
Unfortunately, the two points were all West Texas High could put on the scoreboard as the team went 0/9 from the floor in the third period, while Gruver was able to go on a 16-0 run to pull away for the win.
The Lady Comanches open District 1-1A play 0-1 and drop to 7-15 overall.
The Lady Comanches will next travel to Booker on Tuesday evening in a "Battle of the Tribes" with both teams looking for their first district win.

Barack Obama Gossip
Barack Obama gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Brange & Obama
Brendan Smialowski/Getty
It was a summit of campaign experts yesterday as Brange met with President Obama in the Oval Office. They were invited by the President to discuss Angelina Jolie's movie In The Land Of Blood And Honey. A photographer just happened to be outside, waiting for the right shot. You know, because it's not like there's great security around the White House or anything. Full Story
The mother of the Chosen One hates the Chosen One
Us Weekly has a hate-on for the Brange lately. Week after week they've been pounding the first family of gossip, and this week the streak continues with a juicy item about Angelina's disdain for none other than Barack Obama. According to Us, "she hates him". Hate? Now that is strong. Full Story
The First Dress
It's a hot topic today! Almost as hot as his very sharp words. First Lady Michelle Obama's dress… you likey? I likey so much. Maybe it's because I'm Chinese. It's gold, bold, and strong. Duana called it chartreuse. My buggy eyes saw gold. Am a big fan. And on a day when we've all blubbered just a little – I started wailing when his lines were messed up and she gave him that knowing, loving, private look a wife gives a husband – how about a little romance too? Click here Full Story
Jennifer Aniston: appealing to Shonda
Might as well bust my Chinese ass hoping that Meredith will get killed off Grey"s Anatomy. If that happens, I promised kind words about Jennifer Aniston, here at the Barack Obama fundraiser last night alongside Morgan Freeman - the closest she"ll come to Oscar. sh-t. Old habits die hard. Jen"s wearing black. Full Story
A Clooney/Posh Contrast
Celebrity is amazing. Celebrity is about variety, there is something for everyone, celebrity covers every spectrum. Here"s George in Entertainment Weekly: I won"t be running myself. I don"t think I am qualified for a job in politics. But I feel we need to make some changes. I am becoming the biggest fan of Barack Obama. Full Story

|Where are they now? » Home
Wednesday, January 20, 2010Finding time to talk with Ann Mullins was a challenge for Lipscombsports.com. Mullins teaches the three-year-old class at Judson Baptist Preschool and also coaches volleyball on the club level for Nashville One. This past season she served as head coach for the Siegel High volleyball team, directing them to the TSSAA State Tournament. She was named the 2009 All-Area Coach of the Year by the Daily News Journal in Murfreesboro. Mullins is also working on completing her Masters of Education degree at Lipscomb.
After transferring from the University of Tennessee Mullins was named Atlantic Sun Libero of the Year (2005) and was a three-time member of the Atlantic Sun All-Conference Team (First Team, 2006, 2007; Second Team, 2005).
What sport(s) did you play at Lipscomb? What years? Who were your coaches?
"I played volleyball from 2005-2007. Brandon Rosenthal was the head coach. Margaret Davidson and Jenna Panatier were assistant coaches. I also served as an assistant coach for Lipscomb in 2008."
What is your fondest athletic memory at Lipscomb?
"It would definitely be when we won the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament in 2007 and went to the NCAA Tournament. When I first came to Lipscomb it was definitely in the cards that it would happen. But we all had to be on board and on the same page.
"We finally got to where we needed to be. It was an amazing feeling. Everyone came out and played their best. It was like the first time we had all clicked at the same time as a team at the conference tournament."
Who had the biggest influence on you during your athletic career at Lipscomb? How?
"When I first got to Lipscomb it was a big deal. I knew some of the girls, but not well. It was hard coming in for my first season. I felt like an outsider, and I had never felt like that before. My parents (Sarah and Steve Mullins) were there for me.
"Brandon, of course, gave me an opportunity to continue my career and be successful at Lipscomb. I tell him all of the time that if I had never come to Lipscomb I probably would have never graduated from college. It was not something I had thought about. But Brandon was a mentor. He took me to a different level of volleyball. But he also showed me how I could also be successful as a student."
What is your fondest non-athletic memory from your time at Lipscomb?
"Graduation. When I went to UT I was going to play volleyball and get out of there and go on with my life. I thought I was going to play volleyball for the rest of my life.
"And also my Master's. It is opening up so many doors for me."
What is the most valuable thing you gained or learned from your time at Lipscomb?
"The most valuable thing I learned at Lipscomb is becoming the person I am now. A lot of people want to complain about chapel and the Bible classes, but those things opened me up to a different part of my life. I learned self-respect and who I am as a person. "
Who was your favorite professor? Why?
"Dr. Scott. He was the best teacher I ever had in college or high school. He was awesome. He was a great mentor for me with the whole process of deciding what I wanted to do. I always felt like I was an underachiever in school. Child family studies was my passion. I work with kids all the time. He led me into what I do now in loving coaching and working with kids."
Who is your employer? What is your occupation? What does your position entail?
"I am teaching Pre-kindergarten at Judson Baptist Preschool. I work with USBA, running the volleyball programs, in Brentwood. That is where I coach Nashville One, a U-18 club. I worked with Siegel for three months and I hope I will be back."
Where do you live now?
She is single and lives in Nashville.

So far in our anti-aging series we have covered moisturizer, peels and masks, and even bronzers. Last week we talked about all that the SOLUTION Anti-aging line has to offer mature skin. But what about the true heavy-hitters in our anti-aging line up? The ones that specifically target fine lines and wrinkles. Those products that provide the extra boost we are looking for in an anti-aging line.
This week let's take a look at facial serums and eye care products. While these are items that some women do not add to their skincare arsenal, serums and eye creams/gels are very important components in any regimen.
MyAge and LAVERÉ Serums
According to Susan Stuart, MD, a dermatologist for Martha Stewart's Whole Living Magazine, "Serums have smaller molecules, so they can get active ingredients like antioxidants deeper into your skin than a cream." Due to smaller molecules of facial serums, it is easily absorbed into the deepest layers of the skin. Whereas a moisturizer, containing larger molecules than a serum, is only absorbed into the first layer of the skin, the serums ability to penetrate deeper allows the powerful organic ingredients in LAVERÉ and MyAge products to do their work.
You'll find in our serums and eye creams higher concentrations of anti-aging active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, coenzyme Q-10, sepilift, and green tea extract. These ingredients perform a variety of functions - some are anti-oxidants, others are powerful humectants which absorb and retain moisture to help reduce lines and wrinkles.
One particular ingredient - Bearberry Leaf Extract - is a natural skin lightener that helps lighten age and sun damage spots. Bearberry Leaf Extract, can be found in the LAVERÉ SOLUTION Intensive Lifting Serum. Lighter weight than a moisturizer, facial serums absorb quickly, leaving skin refreshed and toned. Serums improve skin tone, brighten, and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.
Developed for mature skin, LAVERÉ SOLUTION Intensive Lifting Serum provides nourishing, light hydration. Sepalift is a plant-derived super anti-aging ingredient used in this serum to strengthen skin. Used regularly, skin looks healthy, smooth and youthful.
LAVERÉ Hydro Lifting Serum provides anti-aging protection to skin of all ages. Organic aloe vera provides light hydration without being heavy, perfect for those with oily or acne-prone skin types. Hyaluronic acid strengthens connective tissue and improves skin elasticity. Skin is left smoothed, soft and refreshed.
MyAge Lifting Serum is packed with anti-aging Green tea and Karanja Seed Oil. This serum provides nutrients to skin resulting in healthy-looking radiance. CoQ10 and Cova B Trox are used to supply maximum skin-firming benefits.
LAVERÉ and MyAge Eye Care
The thin, delicate skin around the eyes is one of the first places we notice signs of aging. Fine lines and wrinkles form here from squinting, smiling, and laughing. And because skin tends to get thinner as we age, we may notice dark circles and puffiness as well. Targeted ingredients in our eye creams and gels will keep your peepers looking fabulous for years to come.
For Puffiness, Dark Circles, Premature Aging
To revive tired eyes use LAVERÉ HYDRO Cool Eye Gel Roll-On, designed for all skin types. This gel helps to stimulate circulation, reducing the appearance of dark circles. The cooling action helps to soothe any puffiness. Eyes are bright and young-looking.
MyAge Cooling Eye Roll On is formulated with anti-aging white tea and CoQ10 to diminish puffiness and revitalize the eye area. Skin feels cooled and revived.
For Fine Lines and Wrinkles, Dry/Mature Skin
For extra anti-aging power try an eye cream. LAVERÉ Intensive Eye Cream boosts hydration while soothing the delicate skin. This moisturizing cream provides a matte surface, perfect for applying makeup, and leaves eyes bright and luminous.
LAVERÉ SOLUTION Eye Cream (Power Eye Glow) is a sure fix for mature skin - brightens, tightens, smooths, and reduces puffiness all in one. Anti-aging Argan oil delivers rich, non-greasy hydration, while carrot root tones and improves skin elasticity.
MyAge Eye Cream contains Sepalift and Nutri Ceramide for skin-firming and smoothing action. Natural plant oils provide rich hydration in this nourishing cream.
For Tired eyes & Dry skin
If a straight forward eye soother is what you are looking for, try FACES Wild Rose Eye Gel. Reduces puffiness, seals in moisture, and pampers delicate skin around the eyes. This light eye cream is designed for dry and mature skin types, but is light and effective enough for anyone.
Get serious about anti-aging skincare with our powerful facial serums and eye care products. You will be glad you did!

For those of you RH users out there who also happen to be fans of GTK2 apps you really owe it to yourself to give this repository a try.
Right now I'm running Gnome 2.3.x and really enjoying it. You can expect to find some really nice improvements with his Gnome2 packages over the defualt RH ones. A few of them include:
Nautilus is MUCH faster. It also has the "snap to grid" option for icons placed on the desktop.
Newer Mozilla packages.
A very stable version of Epiphany 6.0 (esp compared to earlier releases)
The GTK2 port of many applications - the GIMP included.
Many GTK2 rpm packages I've not seen anywhere else...
I would be doing you a dis-service without stating that this repository if just for updating your distro - he doesn't usually include security fixes and not all packages are stable. I've had really good luck with most of his packages but a most of what's in there is of the Gnome 2.3 (ie, developement stuff) variety so you might not be as lucky as I've been. The beauty is you can grab as much or as little of his packages as you want. I'd definitely recommend his Mozilla and Epiphany packages though. For those who haven't tried it yet - Epiphany kicks ass..

Teaching Your Family to Eat at Home More
For every family there are nights when the kids have after-school activities, or you have a late meeting, for us many soccer games, only to get home late, with an empty fridge, and hungry stomachs that are screaming for food.
Are you prepared or do you eat out?
With some easy planning, and very little cooking times, thank goodness we don't have to run to a restaurant to eat out every night. Can you imagine the food bill for the month? I don't know how families do it. And for us, in this stage of life, we save most the eating out for "date nights" for my husband and me. The kids do well making their own dinners anyway, and they like to be creative in the kitchen.
It's true, as the times we've asked our kids to come, they say they'd rather make a nutritious meal at home! I never thought I'd hear those words, so I guess our hard work of "controlling" what goes into each dish, and our teens listening, has paid off.
How to Avoid Eating Out:
1. In the morning, or even the prior weekend, think ahead to what dinner will be and either use the slow cooker, or take meat (or food items) out of the freezer.
2. Prep in advance. Choose a day where you can cook extra foods, or get meals ready for the week.
3. Make extra when you cook; try to get 2-3 meals out of one larger recipe. IE, cook two whole chickens, eat one for dinner, use the other and leftovers for chicken soup with pasta and enchiladas (adding rice and beans).
4. Take advantage of your freezer. Learn which foods freeze well and which don't.
5. Always keep your pantry stocked. Keep a list in the pantry of food items/dishes to cook using pantry items. Show your kids!
When you save money, and you eat healthy (knowing what you're putting in), it feels good to be good stewards of our finances and bodies, doesn't it?
And now that my kids are all teens, one almost 20, I can give myself a little pat on the shoulder (good Mom!) knowing I've taught my kids well.
Not perfectly, but well.
What's your struggle with eating out, or are you disciplined when it comes to home-cooked meals?
23 Responses to "Teaching Your Family to Eat at Home More"
I was having a mini-meltdown this week over the fact that my kids had something scheduled 4 out of the 5 weeknights – going in some cases until almost 7. And, since they're too young to be carting themselves around – i'm doing it and it started to seriously stress me out. We do the rotisserie chicken thing – grabbing 2, usually turning one into a chicken and rice casserole and the other into soup or something – and we use the crockpot – but i still feel like i'm doing the same thing over and over again (Regardless of how many different things i pin on Pinterest!) I would love some other ideas!! XO-Sheri
Those days are over for me, trying to feed a family before lessons. But when I was raising my family I always made sure that things were planned out for the week ahead. Sundays was kitchen day where I would make a stew, a lasagne, a soup – something that could be reheated quickly. In the warmer weather, it was some grilled meat and a salad. And there was always the slow cooker. Keeping on a budget and keeping the family eating at home can be done with some forethought and planning. Can't tell you how many mornings I filled that crock pot at 6:30 AM before heading out to work for the day.
Confessions of a Fast Food Mom here! Last year my goal was to make fast food the exception instead of the rule. I take an hour or so (usually on Sunday) to prep that week's meals as much as possible. For example, all the ingredients for a crock pot meal go into a gallon size zip-lock bag and into the fridge. Then all I have to do on my way out the door for work is dump the contents in the crock pot and set it on low. That, and having an arsenal of "quick fix" meals ready on hand helps too. I do need to work on the pantry list. It's in my head, but things get missed that way.
This is not only true for busy evenings, but also for Sunday dinner. People wonder how do I cook dinner every Sunday, after all of the church responsibilities I have. Well, just plan ahead…. When we return from church my main dish is cooked and sometime the salad is done. I just make a vegetable and maybe mashed potatoes and have a nice Sunday dinner.
We are blessed that my husband is able to come home a little early on the evenings that the kids have activities, so we can eat early together. On the nights we had back to back baseball games, I would pack a picnic which is always fun.
Hi Sandy,
I'm with you…eating out regularly can be hard on the budget! Those meals out are best reserved for date night or the occasional family dinner.
I try to do as you shared and prepare in advance. With activities and what not, sometimes we eat dinner at different times. Generally, we eat dinner together as a family but there are two nights when my son has an activity right around the dinner hour. I'll feed my husband first and keep him company. Then, when my son arrives home, I'll feed him, and both my husband and I will keep him company. Often we'll have a cup of tea or something like that. We like the family time and encourage conversation to hear about each others day and also give our son plenty of time to chat about what is on his mind/needs help with/etc. I think this is so important – – – for kids to feel that their parents are really present in their lives. That's what makes family meal time so special.
From a food perspective, I find soups or braised foods great for these nights when dinner is served to different family members at multiple times. Both types of meals are foods are easy to prepare and easy to keep warm…either in a crock-pot or on the stove/in the oven. Adding some bread and a salad can take no time at all.
Also – sometimes, if we all wind up eating quite late, I like to be a little unconventional and make dinner one of two ways…either as breakfast or as a tea time sort of meal. The tea time is the most fun because I just bring some things out of the pantry and fridge laying everything out on the table for my family to help themselves. Usually I'll have an assortment of crackers, cheeses, olives, cold cuts or left over cold meat, bread – with olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping, cornichons (gherkin style pickles) and bread & butter pickles, maybe some hummus or other type of dip, and a few condiments like mustard, mayo, etc….and, if I have it – maybe some pesto. I'll put on a pot of tea and round up a little something sweet for dessert – can even just be some store bought chocolates – and that's it. It's very informal but we really enjoy it. And it doesn't require any cooking at all – that's the best part! But it does require – – – like you shared – – – keeping the pantry well stocked.
You have done a great job with your kids and definitely deserve a huge pat on the shoulder! :-) I love reading about how they want to cook healthy! Yes indeed, good job Mama!!!
Have a great day.
Oh my, there are times when I acutally think you are listening in on our conversations…… Our kids are grown, married and on their own so we cannot use them as an excuse. My wife and I eat out at least 4 days per week, and it is just because of convenience. Our pantry is FULL, our freezer is FULL, and yet we eat out. It does raise havoc with our budget, and every week week we say, next week we are going to plan better…… and so it goes. We will be taking this task on again tonite when we eat at chez Chipley…… as in at HOME…. thanks for reminding us all that with a little planning we can have amazing meals, keep within our budget and enjoy each others company!
Curtis & Sherrie
Our family is very involved in sports, so from the very beginning I would put picnic on the menu board for the nights we were out at games. I still pack picnics and the kids will ask me to pack extras for friends. It does take a bit of prep work…but it is way less expensive and much healthier. Our local restaurant supply store saves me from having too many dishes to clean after the games!!
Something I have found that helps me plan our family meals is that I have made a Word document listing out all the main dishes we eat in the fall/winter and all the main dishes we like to eat in the spring/summer. I have a notations by them telling which website the recipe came from or if it is my recipe box just in case hubs is cooking or if I just can't remember. It makes meal planning so much easier for us.
Crockpotting and freezing extras is the key to me always having something ready for dinner and last minute entertaining) anything from spinach dip to mashed potatoes). Disposable tin pans in all sizes and ziplock bags help keep my freezer somewhat organized and makes thawing and reheating really simple. I always write the reheating instructions on the containers so my husband can 'cook' dinner sometimes too. I love helpful posts like that that encourage eating at home!
With my husband in grad school and me getting to stay home with our baby, it just wouldn't work to eat out much. Those meals are definitely the exception. On Monday our kitchen sink went from a slow drain to a near no-drain, despite plunging, snaking and Drano, and the husband declared that we were eating out so we didn't have to worry about dishes. So out we went, and we were both so disappointed by dinner. I remembered why we are okay with eating at home so often. We save so much money and eat better.
Any extra money went to the plumber today to fix the sink. It's a good thing, too, since we're having friends over tomorrow for dinner. (Thanks for the constant nudges to open up our small home and stop comparing what I don't have to what others have.) I'd rather have a functioning sink and a the ability to eat at home and clean up than eating out.
Another thing that works good is the fuzzy logic programmable rice cookers. We have one and I can get it ready in the morning and set the timer – supper is ready! Add a salad or carrot sticks and you are set. I often do rice and beans, seasoned rice and chicken (chicken is either put in later in the day, or is warmed up in the microwave and mixed in at the end.) And there are many more options.
I also have been known to make the main dish in a Le Creuset, put rice in the rice cooker on program, then run to pick people off while the oven is turned off and the Le Creuset keeps things warm.
Hi Sandi,
Man, I agree with you!!! We are a missionary family and we just can't afford going out to eat anymore. We even have a hard time findind places to eat that you don't have to pay a fortune for a heathy meal. We too like to eat at home most of the times. I use my crock pot a lot and try to encourage other to do the same.
We do have a big kitchen in the community where we live, but even having to pay $2 a meal, at the end of the month it adds up a lot and we find ourselves not eating healthy at all. That ends up reflecting in our health.
So, thank you for your encouragement and for the tips. I will definately try to think even more ahead that what I already do and enjoy our family times more.
Our boys are just starting out in school so our schedule is still pretty easy… But I'm trying hard to establish good habits now so when we are in that season, not much has to change :-) I often double a recipe and freeze half, right now I use those frozen meals on nights I have meetings, then I don't have but a few dishes to clean before I leave the house. I menu plan every week and choose crock pot meals on busier nights and meals that take a bit of preparation on nights when I'm home in the afternoon and have the time. I think that's been my biggest learning curve, plan your meals for when you're most likely to have the time to cook. Eating out as a family is truly limited to once or twice a month, it's a treat. It's better for our budget, waistlines and time!
We eat out 3-5 days a week. It's our guilty pleasure. We use it as an excuse when my daughter has an activity to just eat out instead of cooking. We don't do fast food for dinner so at least we're not eating too unhealthy but too many dinners out can be tough on the budget. We are trying to be better at cooking at home. We even bought some new cookbooks to inspire us. I love to cook as long as it's something new. :)
I struggle with it so badly! It is just my husband and me and we eat out almost every night! My problem is forgetting to get something out or doing so and not feeling like eating what I pulled out of the freezer. We live 5 minutes (if that) away from many restaurants. So it is really easy to go get something. I would love to start cooking at home more! It's just getting that umph to do so. I think I'll start actually making some of those recipes I have pinned on my Pinterest board! :)
Surprisingly, my family and I are really disciplined in eating all of our meals at home!!! It's partly out of necessity, it's more economical. It's also because we believe that eating "real food" is the best for our bodies…so yeah, it takes more time in the kitchen…for sure…but you know what? It's also created more time to spend together, because we're hanging out in the kitchen and talking while we're preparing meals :) :) Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :)
I plan out our meals for the upcoming week on Saturday morning while looking at the calendar so I know who's on first and what's on second each night :-) I usually make something big on the weekend and either have planned leftovers during the week, or, if it's a rare calm week, throw the leftovers in the freezer for crazy time. This works well. My DH and I also trade off one night a week where I will take a son to lessons while DH cooks dinner. Every Wednesday is a "fend for yourself" night. The kids can have peanut butter sandwiches, leftovers, cereal, or whatever they can find. DH and I do our own thing.
Two nights a month, DH takes our younger son for lessons – they have to leave about 4:45 and don't get back until 7 p.m. On those nights, I send DS with a sandwich to eat in the car, and DH eats whatever I've made when he returns.
Once in a blue moon on a busy night I will plan for Five Guys. It's rare, so it's a great treat.
I find it's all about the planning. As long as things are on the calendar I do okay. If something unexpected crops up on the schedule, I struggle. However, I've been keeping extra packages of Trader Joe's soup in the pantry, and I always have frozen homemade rolls in the pantry. I put those to use in real emergencies.
With an empty nest, there's only the two of us now, but we still try to eat at home more than we eat out. We don't always succeed, but thankfully we both enjoy cooking.
Patting yourself on the back is in order. :)
We rarely eat out mainly because we just prefer home cooked, know what you're eating meals, but also the cost involved. We will go out on occasion or grab something quick, but like you I try to plan ahead to have meals ready when we get home from games/practices and when we have tournaments or more than one game a day I try to always pack food with us…sandwiches, fruit, nuts, granola bars, etc..we may go out for one meal with the team but we don't eat every meal out. Yikes.
We have a yo-yo method with this one. Planning is the key. When we don't have a plan our methods fall apart. Recently we have started "making extras". We find that each time we make a meal there is just a little bit extra. Every other meal we will freeze the extras. This way we don't have a weeks worth of leftovers that tend to bore us.
Then when the groceries are getting a little low we reach into the freezer and pull out something. Now this method tends to leave us with a dinner table with a buffet style menu. There is a little of this and a little of that, added to the veggies in the fridge. Sometimes the flavors go together…sometimes not so much. The kids like it because if there is a little left over of something they really didn't care for…the parents eat it.
On busy days we also try to pack a picnic…the cooler is a life saver. Sometimes it won't fill our stomach, but it gets us past the drive thru and back home before tempers fall apart.
We used to eat out alot but no longer do so. Partly because I was working on losing weight, partly because I didn't want to spend the money for lousy food when it'd cost me less than half to make something tasty at home, and partly because of watching an excessive amount of "restaurant makeover" shows on TV. Every restaurant kitchen they show is filty with mice all over the place! It has completely turned me off to eating out.
I bought a few issues of Cooking Light magazine and made alot of recipes from them. I decided that even if the kids didn't eat completely healthy every night, we'd do "restaurant night" at least one night a week. The plan was to spend money on the best and freshest ingredients and to try something we'd never had before. We've been doing it for almost 2 months now and my kids love it!

Salone del Gusto and Terra Madre is Back: Don't Miss Out!
15 Aug 14
Salone del Gusto and Terra Madre is back and it's better than ever. Now in its 10th year, our international festival is returning to Turin this October, bringing together members of the Slow Food network and food lovers from every corner of the globe for the greatest food show on Earth. At the center of this year's event will be two main themes: food biodiversity and family farming. Food biodiversity: The Slow Food Ark of Taste is a global project to catalogue rare and endangered products at risk of extinction. The products are "boarded" on to the Ark in order to navigate the choppy waters of the modern food system. This year, hundreds of Ark passengers will be on display in a 600 square meter space inside the event. But don't turn up empty handed - we want you to bring along a product that you believe should be protected for future generations. Family Farming: The UN has declared 2014 the International Year of Family Farming. At Salone, 2,000 delegates from 1,000 Terra Madre food communities will be in town to tell their unique stories and showcase the fruits of their labor. The theme of family farming will be further developed in a series of conferences that will look at some of the biggest issues facing global agriculture including GM crops and climate change. We will also be celebrating the success of our Gardens in Africa project and looking at how we can reach our new target of 10,000 gardens. Alongside all this, participants will be able to take part in an array of seminars led by master bakers and pizza makers from all over Italy, and join world-class chefs for a series of unique and intimate Dinner Dates in and around the beautiful province of Turin. Our new look Cooking School will offer creative and practical lessons, including a number that will focus the creative use of leftovers. It's not all about food either; we have a series of workshops on the subtle art of mixology to help you expand your repertoire of drinks, whether you're drinking them or making them. Here at our Slow Food Editore, the corks have been popping for quite some time as our wine experts noisily try to decide the best 1000 wines in Italy. We are eagerly anticipating the full results at the launch of the 2015 Slow Wine guide, the ultimate guide to Italy's wines, which will take place at Salone. There will also be the opportunity to enjoy our special Presidia products with 341 exhibitors selling artisanal produce. Meanwhile over in the Terra Madre Kitchen, 40 cooks from around the world will be bringing you exceptional and exotic dishes, all of which will reflect the Slow Food philosophy: good, clean and fair for everyone. It's a mouth-watering lineup that promises to be the highlight of this year's calendar. Salone Del Gusto and Terra Madre 2014 is taking place from October 23 – 27. Full descriptions for all our events can be found on the website, where you can book your places. Don't miss out!

Product 248/284
Pattern delivered as an electronic download.
This is a terrific quilt for a beginning quilter. And it's a really fun and relaxing project for an experienced quilter. Everyone wins!
What makes it so easy? Well, let me tell you. . .
It's all straight lines. No diagonals, no points, no curves. Just nice straight lines. Easy to cut and easy to sew.
I designed the quilt to be forgiving of small errors. Relax! Your seams don't match up? Not a big deal! The only places where seams come together are where they're all background fabric - so any errors will be pretty much invisible. I planned it special that way. :-)
I tell you exactly what you need to do every step of the way - including how to efficiently cut out your fabric. I have quilt diagrams, specific yardage requirements and cutting instructions for five common quilt sizes. None of this "easily sizes up or down" nonsense! Do you want to do math or do you want to make a quilt? I thought so. :-)
I link to videos throughout the pattern for all the skills you'll need to complete the project - from using rotary cutting tools to sewing a straight line, layering, basting, quilting, and binding. I don't care if you've never even used a sewing machine before - you can totally make this quilt!
See how easy it's going to be? Are you ready to make it? Here are the sizes included. . .
Crib Quilt (50" wide x 50" tall)
Napping Quilt (60" wide x 70" tall)
Twin Quilt (70" wide x 90" tall)
Queen Quilt (90" wide x 90" tall)
King Quilt (100" wide x 90" tall)
The only other thing you need is some batting. I especially like Warm & Natural 100 % cotton. Oh - and get two spools of all-purpose thread to match your background fabric. That's it!
Happy quilting! You're going to have so much fun! :-)

Slit-seeding is accomplished with a machine that slices rows into your lawn and drops seed into the slits. The knives are designed to slice into the lawn rather than rip out thatch. This reduces the damage to the lawn, leaving the lawn relatively undamaged. There is still a small amount of thatch kicked up, but it is minimal compared to what a dethatcher creates.
Here are a few things to know about our professional slit seeding service:
We only use premium certified grass seed.
The seed is customized to your requirements in order to address problems like disease, insects or poor color.
We strongly recommend a double aeration prior to the slit seeding. This helps break up any thatch layer, reduce soil compaction and the cores of soils act like a topdressing when they are smashed up by the slit-seeder blades.
Starter fertilizers are applied to ensure fast root establishment of the newly germinated seeds.
We also recommend our Organics Plus Topdressing to further enhance seed establishment.
The topdressing supplies a broad range of micronutrients and also acts as a mulch.
Overseeding is very similar to slit-seeding. The difference is that overseeding involves broadcasting the seed with a rotary spreader as opposed to dropping it with a slit-seeder. Overseeding alone is not as effective as slit-seeding, but can be if it is followed up with a power rake.
Maintain good soil moisture for the first four weeks.
It's important to keep the soil moist because the tiny roots of the newly germinated grass seeds are shallow and they can quickly dry out and die. This means watering the newly seeded areas lightly each morning. After four weeks the lawn can be watered like a mature lawn.
Wait until the lawn is to 1/3 higher than you normally mow before cutting. Ensure that your mower blade is sharp to achieve a clean cut.
Be gentle for the first few mowings.
Take corners carefully and mow before watering (when the soil is relatively dry). Mowing a lawn that has wet soil can compact the soil and inhibit proper root establishment. Walking a mower over a soft wet soil can also rip roots and rut the soil.

- How to Read a Study Record
This study is being done to create a registry to help us learn more about urinary and other cancers. This will let us look at large groups of people who do and do not have this kind of cancer.
The investigators will look at risk factors to learn more about how these impact cancer. The investigators will also look at genetic markers. These are genes that are found in a known place. They are often associated with a particular trait. If the gene changes in some way, it may predict cancer or response to treatment. The investigators will look for markers in your saliva.
This registry will help us develop better methods of:
Preventing these cancers. Diagnosing these cancers. Treating these cancers.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
At Atomic everyone skis. It's not just our job, it's our passion. Which is why we're super excited to present our first ever skiwear range for Winter 2014.
It's skiwear designed to do much more than keep skiers warm, too. Instead it actively helps skiers have a better skiing experience. Skiwear carefully built to do exactly what skiers need it to do, and focused on the growing world of progressive all-mountain skiing.
Inspired by the spirit of freeski, those skiers want to go off the beaten track. A bit less piste. A bit more powder. So our new range is here to inspire them to do that: a unique range of progressive all-mountain skiwear, with the inspiration of freeski and the functionality and technology of high performance outdoor wear. Up to everything, accessible to all.
Our athletes Dana Flahr and Daron Rahlves have played a big part in the development and testing of our skiwear. Involved from the early stages to determine the cut, materials and overall design, they've also been putting the range through its paces on the steep spines of Alaska and club fields of New Zealand.

The 2015-16 season will be the his seventh on the bench for John Rose at Dartmouth since joining the men's hockey staff for the 2009-10 campaign. Previously, Rose had spent one year coaching at the junior hockey level with the Tri-City Storm of the USHL.
At Dartmouth, Rose works closely with Associate Head Coach David Lassonde on the team's recruiting process. His evaluation and development with young players, especially defensemen, has translated to success at the collegiate level at Dartmouth as well as his previous two collegiate coaching stints.
That Division I collegiate hockey experience came while working as an assistant at the University of Alaska and Mercyhurst College.
In his most recent stint with a college team before the Big Green, Rose made the move to the CCHA in 2007-08 and was instrumental in recruiting 12 players that helped Alaska improve to a fourth-place finish in 2008-09.
Prior to Alaska, Rose spent three years at Mercyhurst, where he served as a volunteer assistant for two seasons before being promoted to assistant coach for the 2006-07 season. During his time in Erie, Rose helped lead the Lakers to an Atlantic Hockey League Championship and a trip to the 2005 NCAA Tournament. With Mercyhurst, Rose was responsible for recruiting, strength and conditioning, video breakdown and analysis, scouting opponents and practice coordination.
Rose coached for a year at Wentworth Institute of Technology (Boston), a Division III program of the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Northeast, the year before his stint at Mercyhurst. The Leopards went 16-9-4 during the 2003-04 season, qualifying for the NCAA Tournament.
Rose spent the 2008-09 season in the USHL as an assistant coach for the Tri-City Storm and spent five consecutive summers coaching at the Minnesota Hockey Camps run by Pittsburgh Penguins scout Chuck Grillo. Rose also coaches each summer at the USA Hockey National Select Festivals.
Originally from Potsdam, New York, Rose attended New England College of the ECAC East in Henniker, N.H., and graduated in 2003 with degrees in business administration and sport recreation management.
While at NEC, Rose was a four-year defenseman for the Pilgrims' hockey program. During his sophomore campaign (2000-01), the Pilgrims won the ECAC East championship and participated in the NCAA Division III Tournament. As a senior, Rose played in the 2003 Division III East/West All-Star Game.

Technically, our ode to presents ended two days ago, but you didn't think we'd conclude our gift-giving bonanza without addressing what to give the stylish guys in your life, did you? Of course not! We're here to help you every step of the way this holiday season, and that includes assisting you with excellent present ideas for your special men too. So for this installment of our Gift Guide series--it's really, truly the last one this year--we've rounded up some pretty amazing, hot-ticket items your guy is sure to love. Whether he's a tech enthusiast, hard-core gamer, or fashion aficionado, we're positive we've found a few perfect picks that are universally appealing. So without further ado, let the shopping thrills begin!
Gucci 3D Glasses ($225, 212.826.2600)
The three-dimension arena has been on the rise over the past few years in both film and television, and now, thanks to Gucci, your guy no longer has to wear those uncomfortable and unflattering glasses! The luxury brand has created a pair of 3D glasses with cool retro aviator frames, and, as strong believers of looking stylish in every situation, this is something we can definitely get on board with. In addition to their great look, these special shades were designed with a mirror coating that keeps out any distractions for the user (a problem that often occurs with other pairs) and offers an enhanced viewing experience. It's the perfect gift idea for the 3D connoisseur in your life.
Vicarious by Nature Chef Pants Hoodie ($95)
When it comes to men's wardrobe staples, a great hoodie is an absolute must, which is why our guys' gift guide would not be complete without this oh-so cozy version from the eco-friendly brand Vicarious by Nature. Made from organic cotton, this zip-up jacket is a super soft and stylish option he can throw on over his casual ensembles for both day and night, in other words: a must have!
Chan Luu Bracelet ($220)
Your Who What Wear editors appreciate a man who knows how to add interest to his ensembles with a few great accessories, like a cool titanium band, luxurious watch, or an interesting bracelet. Speaking of the latter, Chan Luu has created the perfect bauble for the Rodger to your Rachel (Zoe, of course)! He is sure to love the unfussy and rustic spirit of the dark knotted leather detailing and silver embellishments. It's subtle enough for everyday wear and quite unflashy, so it will never read as "man jewelry," always a good thing!
J. Crew MacAlister Boots ($135) in Stone Suede
Deck shoes were all the rage this summer, but the desert boot has stolen the spotlight this winter season. It's the perfect alternative to your typical casual options--like Vans slip-ons or Chucks--so it's no surprise this understated footwear is topping many wish lists this holiday season. We suggest picking up J. Crew's iteration, which was inspired by the crepe-soled boots worn by soldiers in WWII. They are made from the finest Italian suede, so they have that great worn-in/vintage vibe. We are fans of the Stone hue, but be sure to check out the four additional neutral colors to find the best fit for your guy.
Apple TV ($99)
The sleek and energy-efficient second generation of Apple TV may be 80% smaller than the old model, but it packs in a ton of entertainment! The new-and-improved device instantly and wirelessly streams all your favorite entertainment--basically anything on iTunes: movies, music, even photos--directly to your TV. Plus, it now allows you to rent your favorite TV shows and films from iTunes starting at $.99 per episode. And now for the first time ever, Apple TV can be synced with your Netflix account, allowing your guy to immediately view even more amazing media. In short: it's an affordable gift that keeps on giving.
Le Labo Cologne ($200)
We strongly believe that as a fellow matures, so should his taste in cologne, especially since so many guys get stuck in their formative fragrance years (think: Cool Water, Drakkar Noir, or some other collegiate scent). Fortunately, we've found a brand that is sure to complement his more modern tastes: Le Labo. The luxury perfumer brand--created in New York in 2006 by two world-traveling friends--has mastered the art of harmoniously blending intriguing notes to create memorable and shocking aromas, each with a unique backstory. For example, Another 13 (featured above) is a limited-edition scent created by AnOther Magazine's editor-in-chief Jefferson Hack. It's made from thirteen ingredients that Hack handpicked in the NYC lab, including (synthetic) animal musk, which gives the cologne its signature spike and shine. And while there are 500 hand-blended bottles of this exact scent available, we suggest checking out all the options this holiday season.
Call of Duty: Black Ops ($60)
Even the most amateur gamer will tell you that Call of Duty: Black Ops is a must-buy this holiday season, but what sets it apart from the other options out there? For starters, it's a well-designed game with excellent storylines and incredible graphics, which makes sense seeing as it's the sequel to the greatest selling video game of all time, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The new game--which is played from a first-person shooter perspective--immerses the players into a war-like setting, allowing them to be the hero taking part in weapon-based combat. Oh, and did we mention it holds the single-day record for any entertainment medium with 4.7 million copies sold? No wonder we think it's worth checking out...--Jessica Baker

Quintron & Miss Pussycat are the greatest live music/puppetry act in the whole world. We are pleased to welcome them to the Alamo to present a live music performance, all-star puppet show, and the premiere of their new film.
Mr. Quintron has been making genre-defying noise and "Swamp-Tech" dance music in New Orleans for over fifteen years. His music has the psychedelic soul of New Orleans garage R&B filtered through a tough distorted Hammond B-3 and a cache of self-made electronic, including the Drum Buddy, a light activated analog synthesizer that creates murky, low-fidelity, rhythmic patterns.
Quintron's permanent collaborator is none other than master puppeteer, MISS PUSSYCAT who plays maracas and sings, as well as entertaining all age groups with her highly amusing technicolor puppet shows. Hers are complex puppet shows beautifully crafted for success in intimate venues of late night drinking and dancing: tactile, idiosyncratic characters, pithy dialogue, electronically pixilated soundtracks, and trippy black light effects create a visual and engaging overture/finale to Quintron and Miss Pussycat's music sets.
But there's more! This show also marks the Austin Premiere of Quintron and Miss Pussycat's brand new film, TRIXIE & THE TREE-TRUNKS: THE MYSTERY IN OLD BATHBATH. Click here to watch the trailer.

Thursday: Savannah Sand Gnats 6, @ Hickory Crawdads (TEX) 5
Friday: @ Hickory Crawdads 6, Sand Gnats 0
Saturday: @ Hickory Crawdads 12, Sand Gnats 5
Sunday: @ Hickory Crawdads 5, Sand Gnats 3
The Gnats had a rough weekend in Hickory, dropping three of four after taking five of six on their last homestand.
Having seen this team for almost 70 games this year, there's relatively little I learn from four box scores. However, there are a few performances worth highlighting.
Thursday, RHP Domingo Tapia: 6.2 IP, 6 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 6 K. The box score has 12 groundball outs to one flyball out. Think the 20-year old had the sinker working? For video on Tapia, check here, from Mike Newman of Fangraphs.
Sunday, RHP Michael Fulmer: 5.2 IP, 9 H, 5 R, 4 ER, 2 BB, 8 K, 1 HR. After a dominant July, the 19-year old's ERA has gone up in August, but he's also made two starts in more hitter-friendly ballparks like Asheville and Hickory. In both months, his K/BB has been at three or more. Take the big picture here, in 11 starts in the first half, he had a 3.35 ERA in 51 innings with a 2.3 K/BB ratio (44 K/19 BB). In 10 starts in the second half, he's run a 2.20 ERA in 57.1 innings with a K/BB of an even three (57 K/19 BB).
A six-game hitting streak has taken 2012 second-round pick Matt Reynolds (pictured) to .258/.331/.348 in 41 games. That's not real sexy, but after a slow start (.214/.288/.286 in his first 26 games), the 21-year old is hitting .333/.406/.456 in 15 games in August. He's played exclusively at shortstop defensively for the Gnats, but the Mets do not view him as an everyday shortstop in the big leagues.

In addition to a Bachelor of Arts degree in World Missions, a concentration in World Missions, Interdisciplinary Degrees with an emphasis on Missions, and the underlying vision of the administration to make it possible for every student to go on an evangelistic world mission trip, the college declares itself committed to equipping students to fulfill the Great Commission.
Matthew 28:18-20
Christian Worldview:
The Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) of Truett-McConnell College is entitled, "Fostering a Christian Worldview at Truett-McConnell College." A Christian Worldview is the foundation for the entire curriculum and student life of the College and is its raison d"être. It is at the core of everything the college does in education, athletics, and student activities. The college seeks to infuse every aspect of its ministry with a Christ-centered and Biblically-based worldview that will challenge any and all secular and/or post-modern worldviews with which students face.
Acts 17:23-31
Biblically-Centered Curriculum:
Truett-McConnell College is a liberal arts college offering both Bachelor and Associate's degrees in a variety of majors, concentrations, and minors, and a Master of Arts in Theology. The college is a growing Christian community dedicated toward merging the finest traditions of a liberal arts education with the growing demands for Christian professionals embodied in a curriculum that is Biblically-centered. Since Scripture is authoritative it is the yardstick against which every course and program of studies is measured. Truett-McConnell College is limited by the *"authoritative nature of the Scriptures, and by the distinct purpose for which the school exists." *The Baptist Faith and Message, Article XII.
2 Timothy 3:16
