How do you get tomato stains out of white bowls?
By Michelle from Scipio, IN
Here are the recent answer to this question.
By Elaine [173]02/15/2010
I use bleach also if the stain is there but to prevent the stain in the first place, if I am storing leftovers in fridge that is tomato based, I first spray the container with cooking spray to prevent it from seeping into the container.
By Kathryen [8]02/11/2010
The sun does wonders with stains from tomato sauce on Tupperware and other plastic dishes. The sun also worked to take out some flower pollen stains on a favorite pair of light beige slacks.
By Alice Heppner [4]02/11/2010
Hi. I know this sounds funny but I tried it as I always freeze leftover spaghetti sauce in my plastic containers. Make sure the container has been washed and then stick it in the sun and leave it for a day. Not sure where I read this but I have tried it and it works.
By OliveOyl02/11/2010
Soak them in hot water, dish detergent and some bleach.

Four teenagers narrowly escape a bloodbath at a racing track when one of them has a vision of the carnage just before it happens. But Death seems to be hot on their heels, as the slaying continues in swimming pools, car washes, cinemas and more.
The novelty factor stops and starts at the 3-D specs: this is a horror movie on tracks, not going anyplace new. Still, there's some inventive grue-splashing as always.

U.S News recently revealed the colleges at which students graduated with the least loan debt last year. (Click here to check them out.)
All other things being equal, it's better to graduate less debt than more. Here are two big reasons why:
- Loan debt isn't like other kinds of debt—you're basically stuck with it until you repay it.
- Sizable debt—and the big monthly payments go along with it—can really drag you down after graduation. They can force you to take a job that you don't want, force you to live with your parents, or eat up your discretionary income—all situations you'd hope to avoid as a college-educated worker.
As I've mentioned before, many smart students limit their borrowing to subsidized federal Direct Loans. Not only do these loans have low interest rates, they're capped at reasonable levels: your maximum Direct Loan debt would be $27,000 if you complete your degree in four years. This might not seem like much to cover the cost of a college education, but remember: student loans aren't the full picture. Ideally, they'll only come into play after parent contributions and scholarships and grants.

UPDATE: Crews battle Beaver Creek Fire throughout Friday night
Credit: Logan Schenk
Weekend Fire Update: Beaver Creek Fire
Hotshot crews, engine crews, and dozers responded to areas on the west side of Highway 75 including the Zinc Spur subdivision and Croy Canyon to stop the fast moving Beaver Creek Fire.
The fire was active during the evening hours prompting officials to temporarily close down Highway 75 from Deer Creek south of Hailey to through traffic, which has since been reopened.
Firefighters in Greenhorn Gulch fought the fire to prevent structures from burning, supported by dozers and aerial support.
The fire burned in the east of Baker Creek which officials say could reach the highway by the end of the day, prompting crews to work even harder at suppressing the blaze.
A red flag warning is in effect today because of gusty winds, and low humidity which can lead to erratic fire behavior.
On Friday evening, 698 personnel were assigned to the fire with more on the way over the weekend. There are now fourteen helicopters including five helitankers.
There are sixteen handcrews, including six Hotshot crews, and 63 engine crews working around the clock.
On Saturday morning the fire was 92,754 acres with containment at six percent. One home, a bunkhouse, and six other structures have been destroyed by the Beaver Creek Fire.
With the disaster declaration issued by Governor "Butch" Otter on August 12th, the National Guard is assisting by providing extra personnel for checkpoints and road closures.
"With the Beaver Creek Fire moving toward structures, we are putting all available resources toward the effort," said VHS director Col. Brad Rich. "The Idaho National Guard has unique capabilities that will be instrumental in providing for the public's safety and we thank them for their support."
A public meeting will be held today at 3 p.m. at the Community Campus at 1050 Fox Acres Road, Hailey. In addition, at 7 p.m. at the Church of the Big Wood located at 100 Saddle Dr, Ketch um.

|m. (1) Elizabeth Foote, (2) Elisha Tipping.
He had two daus and coheirs, Elizabeth and Elizabeth but it was unknown who their mother(s) were. But CP says Elizabeth was dau. of Elisha. and that this Eliz d. 13 Jan 1696/7. For ther other dau. GEC says in CB, Portman, p. 90 that she was dau of Eliz Foote, though GEC there referred to Eliz F. as 2nd wife.
"London Visitation pedigrees 1664" (pub Harleian 1940), p. 65 says that he and Elizabeth Foot (1627-1650) had a dau Elizabeth who m. Sir William Portman Bt. This would make the dau. Elizabeth to be born between 1643 and 1650 inclusive.
The "Visitations of London begun in 1687" do not clarify this at all.
However The Hist & Antiqs of Harewood led to the statement that his younger daughter m. the earl of Radnor and this was sustantiated in CP X, 715. However it there refers to Elisha Tipping as his 1st wife which is clearly wrong and contradicts Complete Baronetage.
The correct relationships are:

Groups offer help to young Collier immigrants who could benefit from new policy
GOLDEN GATE - Requirements to be considered under new immigration policy:
■ Under age 16 when came to U.S.
■ Has already resided in U.S. continuously for at least five years already
■ In school, a high school graduate, obtained GED or honorably discharged
■ Not been convicted of a serious crime; doesn't pose threat to national security
■ Not older than 30
Source: Department of Homeland Security
A new nationwide policy for young, undocumented immigrants seems tailor-made for Roberto Valdez.
He's weeks shy of turning 20, a high school graduate with no rap sheet who arrived with his parents from Mexico before he could walk.
Growing up, he kept it private that he lacked legal status.
"When I was going to graduate, that's when it really hit me more," said Valdez, who along with two dozen other people passed through a Legal Aid Service of Collier County information booth Saturday at the Golden Gate Community Center.
Although new procedures that accompany the immigration policy won't be announced until August, Legal Aid attorney Maureen Kelleher has encouraged illegal immigrants in Collier County to gather their paperwork now to expedite the process.
Saturday's event was the first of several information sessions planned in the coming months, Kelleher said, though dates and locations aren't yet determined.
Changes to the deferred action process were announced June 15 by the Department of Homeland Security, providing a temporary reprieve that can be renewed every two years, and for individuals like Valdez who are under the age of 30 and arrived illegally in the U.S. before the age of 16, the ability to work.
Larry Aguilar, a volunteer with the League of United Latin American Citizens, explained in Spanish to the parents, young children and teens gathered at the outdoor booth that they would be wise to gather documentation now that almost certainly will be necessary, such as birth and school records. The official procedure is expected to be made public in mid-August, coinciding with the back-to-school season, which could slow down records requests.
"There are a lot of opportunists in the community," Aguilar said of companies offering services to handle the new procedure. "One of the things we wanted to get out is there's help out there."
Valdez said he has his paperwork ready, Naples High School transcripts and all.
If his deferred action application is accepted, that will mean getting his driver license after years of being dependent on rides from family and friends. He could work legally, and have a chance at college.
For now, he makes ends meet helping out in a family member's construction business. For young illegal immigrants, not having the right paperwork is an inconvenience and a fear of being sent back to a country they don't know.
"If they're going to deport me, what am I going to do there?" Valdez said. "My life is here, man."

Legal and Policy Resources on Public Health "Winnable Battles"
Nutrition Advertising Targeting Children
Winnable Battles
Obesity among young people is a major public health concern in the United States. During the period 1980-2008, the prevalence of obesity among children aged 6 to 11 years increased from 6.5% to 19.6% and from 5.0% to 18.1% among youth aged 12 to 19 years. The scientific literature documents that children are uniquely vulnerable to the effects of advertising and scholars have proposed regulating food marketing to children as a strategy to address childhood obesity. From a legal perspective, the issue is a federal question that includes commercial speech and First Amendment protections, which is influenced by Supreme Court decisions that show an interest in the protection of children. Therefore, some food industry strategies to market to children that are substantial, complex, and composed of primarily nutrient poor and calorie dense foods are beginning to be examined. In addition, the methods the food industry uses to advertise to children are expanding to various technological forms–including television, the Internet, interactive video games, and product placements in movies intended for children–that have not been tested in the courts. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which is the primary federal agency with jurisdiction, reports that in 2006, the food industry spent approximately $870 million on marketing to children under the age of 11 and over $1 billion on marketing to adolescents. The majority of advertising (65%) was spent to promote carbonated beverages, breakfast cereals, and fast food restaurants. The food industry spends nearly all of the remaining 35% marketing non-carbonated beverages, snack foods and candy.
- Institute of Medicine (IOM)
- The IOM reviewed 123 published empirical studies to determine the influence of food marketing on children. Key findings from the report include:
- food advertising increases children's consumption of advertised foods;
- children age eight and under do not comprehend the persuasive intent of marketing messages;
- children consider all advertising as accurate and fail to comprehend the advertiser's motive to embellish the product; and
- children under four cannot distinguish between advertising and programming.
The study was requested by Congress and sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The report, Food Marketing to Children and Youth: Threat or Opportunity was published in December 2005 and offers the most comprehensive review to date of the scientific literature related to food marketing that targets children and adolescents.
- The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF)
- In 2007, the KFF published results from the largest study ever conducted to date on television advertising to children. The study examined the current status of food advertising to children on television to provide a baseline for measuring change in future years. The study examined more than 1,600 hours of television programming across all genres to develop a detailed analysis of advertising content from a large national sample of children. The report finds that children ages 2-7 are exposed to an average of 38 product advertisements per day; 8-12 year-old children average 83 advertisements per day; and 13-17 year-old children average 79 advertisements per day. Food is the most widely advertised product on television for children at 50% of all ad time, and more than 40% of all food advertisements provide a disclaimer (e.g., "part of a balanced diet") or promote a website encouraging personal interaction.
- Peer-reviewed Publications Available on the Internet
- Story, M., & French, S. (2004) Food Advertising and Marketing Directed at Children and Adolescents in the U.S. International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 1:3. The authors discuss food advertising and marketing strategies, the influence of food advertising on children's food preferences, and regulations on advertising to children. Their findings show that foods heavily marketed to children are predominantly high in sugar and fat. They also conclude that studies consistently show children exposed to advertising will choose advertised foods significantly more often than unadvertised foods.
- Harris, J., et.al. (2008) A Crisis in the Marketplace: How Food Marketing Contributes to Childhood Obesity and What Can Be Done. Annual Review of Public Health, 30:211-25. The food industry markets to children because they represent a consumer base for food purchases, effectively influence parents, and develop brand loyalties very early in life that are continued throughout adulthood. The authors found a significant disparity between public health funding to lower the prevalence of childhood obesity and food industry spending on marketing non-nutritious foods to children. For example, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation provides $100 million each year to reverse child obesity trends, but the food industry spends, on average, more than $133 million each month on advertising and promotions to children.
- Montgomery, K. & Chester, J. (2009) Interactive Food and Beverage Marketing: Targeting Adolescents in the Digital Age. Journal of Adolescent Health, S18-S29. The authors go beyond traditional television and print media to explore the effect interactive marketing has on children (e.g., internet, games, digital devices, on-line social networks). The authors conclude that interactive marketing features personalization, engagement, immersion, and connectivity that they describe as particularly risky to adolescents and exploits the relationship that teenagers have with new media.
- Federal Trade Commission (FTC)
- The FTC was created in 1914 to prevent unfair methods of competition in commerce. The FTC is the only federal agency with both consumer protection and competition jurisdiction in broad sectors of the economy. The FTC home page has a "Quick Finder" section that includes links to FTC adjudicative proceedings, documents, rules and guides that a reader looking for legal resources may find useful.
- http://www.ftc.gov/index.shtml
- The FTC, Division of Advertising Practices (DAP) is responsible for regulating marketing practices that raise health and safety concerns. DAP's enforcement priorities include oversight and monitoring of deceptive advertising. DAP is the FTC division responsible for reporting on food industry advertising practices targeting children and provides data to assist others who measure the impact of advertising and marketing practices by food companies on childhood obesity.
- In 1990, Congress enacted the Children's Television Act (CTA). The CTA authorizes the FTC to limit the amount of commercial information in television programming targeting children (defined as under age 16) to 10.5 minutes per hour on weekends and 12 minutes per hour on weekdays. The CTA requires each broadcast station in the United States to use a minimum three hours per week of "core programming" to serve the educational and informational needs of children. The following link is to the FTC page about children's educational television.
- In 1996, the FTC adopted a Report and Order amending the CTA to strengthen FTC enforcement. Under the Order, upon renewal of any broadcast license, the FTC must "consider the extent to which the licensee has served the educational and informational needs of children through the licensee's overall programming, including programming specifically designed to serve such needs." The FTC also adopted a definition of "core programming" and provides better guidance to broadcasters to remain compliant with the CTA. The first link provides an FTC overview of the Report and Order and the second link is the actual Report and Order, MM Docket No. 93-48, FCC 96--335, released August 8, 1996.
- http://www.fcc.gov/mb/policy/kidstv.html
- http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Mass_Media/Orders/1996/fcc96335.htm
- In November 2005, appropriations law was enacted providing funds to the FTC to develop empirical data that addressed the extent of food and beverage marketing to children. The Senate was "concerned about the growing rate of childhood and adolescent obesity and the food industry's marketing practices for these populations." In response, the FTC solicited public comments on the topic and interested parties provided comments by December 21, 2006. The first link is the FTC Notice of Solicitation for Comment. The second link is the response from 19 interested parties with direct links to their submitted comments.
- http://www.ftc.gov/os/2006/10/P064504foodindmarketingchildrenFRN.pdf
- http://www.ftc.gov/os/comments/foodmktgtokidspra-3/index.shtm
- Pursuant to the Congressional mandate to prepare a report on food industry marketing practices and subsequent to the public comment period, the FTC subpoenaed 44 food and beverage companies and used compulsory process orders to compel them to provide documentation regarding their industry marketing practices directed at children and adolescents. Based on their findings, the FTC submitted a report to Congress in July 2008 with unprecedented data on child directed marketing practices by the food industry. For example, in 2006 the food industry expenditures totaled more than $1.6 billion in marketing to children and adolescents and $116 million in marketed carbonated beverages to students in schools. The report also describes product types (cereals, fast food, candy, etc.) and marketing methods (television, internet, prizes, event sponsorships, etc.) used by the industry to market to children and adolescents.
- The authority to regulate advertising and declare specific practices and methods of competition as deceptive and unfair is granted to the FTC under the Federal Trade Commission Act of 1938, 15 USC 45(a)(1). Section 5 of the FTC Act prohibits "unfair methods of competition" and "unfair or deceptive acts or practices." The FTC has defined "deceptive" and Congress enacted legislation defining "unfair" for the purposes of the FTC Act.
- The FTC uses rulemaking to exercise its authority and create prohibitions on deceptive marketing practices. Unlike most federal agencies that rule make under the Administrative Procedures Act, the FTC must use an extensive process outlined in the Magnum-Moss Act of 1975 that can take up to ten years to complete. This is intended to prevent the FTC from acting too quickly on commercial speech issues.
- The FTC has an enforcement policy statement against deceptive acts or practices. The statement outlines three elements that must be present for the FTC to take action against an advertiser. First, there must be a representation, omission, or practice that is likely to mislead the consumer. Second, the FTC examines the reasonableness of the practice from the perspective of the intended audience. Finally, the representation, omission, or practice must be likely to affect the consumer's conduct or decision with regard to the product or service.
- The National Policy and Legal Analysis Network to Prevent Childhood Obesity (NPLAN)
- NPLAN has produced a "Model Ordinance for Healthier Toy Giveaway Meals" and an accompanying fact sheet which discuss the fast foods industry's use of toys to market unhealthy foods to children.
- NPLAN has created several resources on limiting food marketing inside and on the grounds of schools, including model policies, a fact sheet, and a legal memorandum on First Amendment implications of restricting food and beverage advertising in schools.
- In conjunction with the Public Health Law Center, NPLAN has produced a series of four fact sheets that lay out a roadmap for advocates interested in engaging and cooperating with state attorneys' general in addressing junk food marketing to children.
- NPLAN and the Institute for Public Representation have produced a memorandum on the FTC's authority to regulate food marketing and how researchers and advocates can identify and report unfair, misleading, and deceptive ads and marketing to the FTC.
- Rudd Center
- The Rudd Center published a November 2010 report titled, Fast Foods F.A.C.T.S.: Evaluating Fast Food Nutrition and Marketing to Youth. The report examines the marketing efforts of 12 of the nation's largest fast food chains and analyzes the nutritional content of the foods advertised. Findings from the report show the fast food industry spent more than $4.2 billion on marketing and advertising in 2009. Although fast food companies have pledged to reduce unhealthy marketing to children, preschoolers through teens are seeing more fast food advertisements today compared to marketing data from only two years ago. Researchers also found that out of 3,039 possible kids' meal combinations, only 12 meet standards established by the Nutrient Profile Index and the Institute of Medicine guidelines for calorie and sodium consumption. Only 15 meal combinations meet nutritional criteria for older children.
- The Rudd Center published an October 2009 report titled, Cereal FACTS: Evaluating the Nutritional Quality and Marketing of Children's Cereals. In 1980, the FTC attempted to regulate nutrition advertising to children in a program known as KidVid; however, an act of Congress in 1981 terminated the FTC effort. Since then, FTC policy has focused on strategies that focus more on food industry self regulation. The Rudd Center report examines the government's policy to allow food industry self regulation and examines whether pledges by the largest food marketers and actions by the Children's Food and Beverage Advertising Initiative are working to reduce unhealthy marketing to children. They have found that in spite of the pledges, large cereal manufacturers continue to target children with their least healthy products.
- Strategic Alliance (SA)
- Eatbettermove.org and the Prevention Institute promote healthy eating and activity as the SA. The SA maintains a page dedicated to "Unhealthy marketing to kids" that describes the environment marketers create with their advertising efforts toward children, the concern advertising creates for parents and public health officials, and action steps that may be taken to reduce marketing of unhealthy foods to children. Eatbettermove.org has published a policy statement titled, Restricting Television Advertising to Children.
- Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI)
- In March 2010, the CSPI published Report Card on Food Marketing Policies: An analysis of Food and Entertainment Company Policies Regarding Food and Beverage Marketing to Children. CSPI evaluated food and beverage manufacturers, chain restaurants, and entertainment companies that market food to children to determine whether they have adopted a marketing policy, and if so, the adequacy of the policy. The study is in response to the 2008 FTC policy statement that, "All companies that market food or beverage products to children [should] adopt and adhere to meaningful nutrition-based standards for marketing their products and that marketing should include all advertising and promotional techniques." The study found that 68% of the 128 companies analyzed do not have policies.
- American Psychological Association (APA)
- A significant public health concern related to nutrition advertising targeting children is the question of a child's ability to comprehend the intent of the message. Commercial speech that may otherwise have 1st Amendment protections may be considered inherently misleading when directed at children too young to understand its persuasive intent. The 2004 Report of the APA Task Force on Advertising and Children states that, "because young children lack the cognitive skills and abilities of older children and adults, they do not comprehend commercial messages in the same way as do more mature audiences, and, hence, are uniquely susceptible to advertising influence."
- Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation v. Public Service Commission of New York, 447 U.S. 557 (1980)
- The Central Hudson Gas case established a four part test to determine when restrictions on commercial speech violate the First Amendment. The test includes (1) A court must confirm whether the specific speech at issue is protected by the First Amendment, meaning it must not be false or misleading; (2) Is the interest asserted by the government substantial; (3) Does the regulation directly advance the governmental interest asserted; and (4) Does the regulation reach beyond what is necessary to serve the government's interest? As of November 2010 the Court has not heard a case that employs the Hudson case test on the issue of nutrition advertising that targets children.
- Ginsberg v. New York, 390 U.S. 629 (1968)
- The Ginsberg case involved a commercial vender selling obscene materials to minors. The Court in its decision found that the government "has an independent interest in the well-being of its youth" and noted that a child "is not possessed of that full capacity for individual choice which is the presupposition of First Amendment guarantees." The case demonstrates that the Court considers children a vulnerable population and constitutionally cannot be seen in the same light as adults.
- Peer Reviewed Publications Available on the Internet
- Pomeranz, J. (2010) Television Food Marketing to Children Revisited: The Federal Trade Commission Has the Constitutional and Statutory Authority to Regulate. Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics, Spring, 98-116. The author presents comprehensive background information that describes commercial speech protections under the First Amendment, the history and operations of the FTC, regulatory practices, Supreme Court decisions and statutory authority. The author argues that our "free market economy is premised on rational and informed consumers who have confidence in commercial information's accuracy and reliability" and because the Supreme Court has found children to be "uniquely vulnerable" and they do not have the ability to differentiate between puffery and fact, any speech intended to persuade them is, by definition, deceptive and misleading.
- Pomeranz, J., et.al. (2009) Innovative Legal Approaches to Address Obesity, Milbank Quarterly, (87)1, 185-213. The article examines promising legal strategies for preventing obesity including regulatory strategies related to advertising that target children and adolescents. The authors suggest that while regulating "commercial speech" may not be an effective strategy, "compelled speech" of factual and uncontroversial commercial information such as improved labeling may serve an appropriate government interest. The government may also develop strategies to fund compelled government speech that is made available in the commercial marketplace. Regulating conduct of persons or corporations may also be an effective strategy. For example, local laws banning the placement of certain items near a checkout counter may not subject to a First Amendment test (junk food-free checkout aisles).

With the current situation in Japan, teachers are thinking outside the box and using technology to educate students about the importance of coordinated strategies to help nations that have been ravaged by natural disasters.
The program, entitled "International Student Summit: International Responses to Natural Disasters," was a collaborative effort organized by the World Affairs Council of Pittsburgh and included 15 schools from around the world linked together through web conferencing technology, according to the Baldwin-Whitehall Patch. Besides Baldwin High School in Pennsylvania, classes from countries like Georgia and Pakistan were invited to discuss the need for countries to cooperate with one another in times of disasters like earthquakes and tsunamis.
The interactive factor that the summit offered allowed students to be engaged because they were already used to the technology. The news source added that more teachers need to make use of such systems to educate kids because "if educators don't keep pace, schools will fall out of the hyperreality in which today's students live and interact."

The CARLI servers are in a Data Center on the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) campus. The UIUC campus firewalls automatically download the latest intrusion detection signatures and one of those signatures from the vendor was bad. At 9AM Friday the firewalls crashed and automatically restarted. A firewall restart drops all connections to our Voyager server (it probably has no effect on web traffic). At 3PM Friday, the firewalls crashed and restarted again, but now they were in a bad state that also slowed down network performance.

I ended up running that 10K on Thanksgiving. And it went fine. Yes, fine. There wasn't a whole lot of enthusiasm happening during the run, but I did it, and the bar is set. And I have work to do.
The race? The Sam Lapidus Memorial 10K in Birmingham, Alabama. My first ever race in the 'Ham, so it was fun to experience the hometown running vibe. Unfortunately I didn't have any friends planning to run it this year, and I surprisingly didn't run into anyone I knew, despite recognizing several names when I was looking through the results. That could have something to do with hiding out in my car until shortly before the race and hurrying home soon afterward. Didn't spend much time looking around for people since it was a bracing 22 degrees! Also good: the fact that I got there. I was having serious doubts the night before, and downed a huge bowl of Santa Fe Soup, probably thinking I wouldn't actually do it – not exactly the best thing to eat the night before racing.
The Good: It was very well organized – apparently it's the 37th year for the race – something I was maybe vaguely aware of growing up, but thought people were crazy for getting up and running on Thanksgiving. No thank you, I will be enjoying my break from basketball practice and will instead be busy making pumpkin pie. Anyway, packet pickup was super easy, and the shirts were long sleeved, which is always nice. And despite being cold, it was a gorgeous morning, and felt great to get Thanksgiving Day started off with a run. And it didn't start till 8:30! Nice to sleep a little later than usual before a race.
The Bad: It was 22 degrees. Which is darn cold for Alabama on Thanksgiving. I think it was 29 by the time the race started, which actually felt good once moving, but it was hard to get warmed up (actually, I didn't even try. Just started cold and went with it. My feet thawed by about the second mile.) The course was kind of boring – an out and back along a very familiar but not very scenic road, and it was sneakily hilly. Mostly downhill on the way out and a long slow uphill on the way back, with a sharp , short little uphill right at the end – killer!
The Ugly:
That's what it looks like to crash and burn in a 10K, folks. I should have expected it – I had barely run for 2+ weeks, and I went out way faster than I intended. I had been warned that the second half of the course was brutal, but I decided to just run (and walk some, apparently. The work I have to do is as much mental as it is physical). So, there you have it. 3+ minutes off of a PR, but I haven't been doing speed work, or much running at all, so I'm glad for the kick in the butt to remind me that to run fast, I have to run. And then run fast.
All in all, glad I finally spent a Thanksgiving morning Turkey Trotting, and I'm pumped to get back on a training plan and to actually make some progress / hopefully not feel like death at the end of a race that I ran much more slowly than what I know my potential is for the distance.
And I'll leave y'all with a video that's making me smile these days. Remember my stress over acquiring a kitten the week before the marathon? Well, he's still around and I've admittedly grown quite fond of him. While living at my house I think he's decided he's a dog, or at least that he can take on my dogs. So that is what I get to witness nightly – it's endlessly entertaining: http://youtu.be/EwQaaYBhAoE

A cosigner can really pay off
A cosigner can help you qualify
Applying with a creditworthy cosigner may give you a better chance of approval.
Cosigner release available
After graduation a borrower may apply for their cosigner to be released from the loan once they have made 12 consecutive, on-time principal and interest payments and meet certain credit requirements.3
Weighing your options
It's important to explore your options. Click here to learn about the differences between the Sallie Mae Smart Option Student Loan® and the PLUS Loan for Graduates.
Encouraging Responsible Borrowing
Sallie Mae has helped more than 30 million Americans pay for college since 1972. We encourage students and families to supplement their savings by exploring grants, scholarships, federal and state student loans, and to consider the anticipated monthly payments on their total student loan debt and their expected future earnings before considering a private education loan.
The Smart Option Student Loan information is for borrowers attending degree-granting institutions only. Applications are subject to a requested minimum loan amount of $1,000. Current credit and other eligibility criteria apply.
1 Explore federal loans and compare to ensure you understand the terms and features. Smart Option Student Loans that have variable rates can go up after consummation. Federal student loans are required by law to provide a range of flexible repayment options, including, but not limited to, income-based repayment and income-contingent repayment plans, and loan forgiveness and deferment benefits, which other student loans are not required to provide. Federal loans generally have origination fees, but are available to students regardless of income.
2 Interest rates for the Fixed and Deferred Repayment Options are higher than for loans with the Interest Repayment Option. Graduate student pricing on the Smart Option Student Loan is limited to students enrolling in a Masters/Doctorate level degree program. Graduate Certificate/Continuing Education course work is not eligible for graduate student pricing. Variable rates may increase after consummation. Interest is charged while you are in school and during the 6-month separation period. Any interest that remains unpaid when you enter full repayment will be added to your loan balance.
3 The release of a cosigner is at the sole discretion of Sallie Mae. Only the borrower may apply for cosigner release. The borrower must provide proof of graduation or successful completion of certification program, not be delinquent and have made 12 consecutive on-time payments of principal and interest immediately before applying, provide proof of income, pass a credit review that demonstrates a satisfactory credit history and the ability to assume full responsibility of the loan(s) individually, have no student loan(s) in default, must not be reported as 90+ days delinquent in the past 24 months, must not be in hardship forbearance and/or in a modified repayment program, be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, and meet the age of majority in their state. Requirements are as of October 13, 2014, and are subject to change.
Smart Option Student Loans, Residency & Relocation Loans, and Bar Study Loans are made by Sallie Mae Bank or a lender partner.
Information advertised valid as of 9/25/2015.
Sallie Mae, Smart Option Student Loan, Residency & Relocation Loan, Bar Study Loan, and the Sallie Mae logo are service marks or registered service marks of Sallie Mae Bank or its subsidiaries.

Perhaps you've stumbled upon this site searching for something different or unique, possibly even something rare and extraordinary that reflects a deep-seated existential yearning to connect your music to the universe.
Or maybe you're just looking for cool leather guitar straps.
Either way, welcome to Anthology Gear Wear. You've come to the right place.
Why Anthology? In a word, value. Given this age of strip malls and mega-chains, the term is too frequently misused to mean a bargain, a promotional sticker slapped on something cheap. Anthology I built over on the other end of the spectrum, where "value" is still rooted in what's "valuable" — meaningful, exceptional, personal, meant to endure; like music that touches your soul. Anthology guitar straps and gig bags are all about my desire to create functional, lasting works of art.
Initially, I was just looking for a custom guitar strap. After shopping around, however, I realized it was the inspired craftsmanship and singular, expressive character one finds in classic guitars that I was really after in a strap. A visionary curator working with quality construction and commensurately high-level design skills would trump customization.
Then, as tends to happen in music, what I started out looking for became what I needed to create. As a result, a piece by Anthology is much more than just another disposable, cookie-cutter assembly line slab of cowhide. Our leather matures and beautifies with use so that, over time, each guitar strap and gig bag melds to the musician using it. Call it fine custom aging: the piece takes on a personality through the individual characteristics unique to you and the road you take it on. By the time you're ready to hand an Anthology guitar strap down to your junior rockers, that heirloom will possess a richness and distinction that can neither be replicated nor exceeded.
And that's the whole point. Anthology isn't "what you see is what you get." Anthology is "what you'll see is where you've been and what you've given." Our value exists to tell a meaningful story about you. To get there, I've poured my heart and soul into the design of each guitar strap and gig bag, burning the midnight oil in my design studio, away from the wife and kids, to create a collection of precious canvases for you to paint your story onto.
Hope you sign on for the ride.

Will Facebook be the last dominant social network? I'm not sure anyone really knows the answer to this. Only time will tell. Looking back at history, I can tell you that FB certainly wasn't the first. Even before Mark Zuckerberg even got off the ground with there were already online social networks. LinkedIn and MySpace had more than a year on FB. How FB made these two sites obsolete will give us clues regarding how Google + will fair as a social network.
Facebook VS MySpace
When users starting migrating from MySpace to FB, my initial hypothesis was that it was a fad. Similarly to the migration from MSN to AIM, I thought these networks went through cyclical shifts. I figured that within a year we'd be messing with something else. What I now realize is that in the case of social networks, boredom alone won't cause a mass migration. I figure that for a social network to fall there has to be a big upgrade waiting on the other side. Facebook was far superior to MySpace. Facebook's interface was far superior. While MySpace was overcrowded, FB was beautifully minimalist.
This interface offered not only something different for users but was also simply a better interface (MySpace pages took forever to load). On top of that FB had game changing features. Features like the newsfeed and picture tagging put interaction on a whole new level. The real game changer though, was something as simple as a relationship status. This innovation basically hit the nail on the head as to why social networks exist in the first place. This feature while technically unimpressive was the greatest addition ever. So, can what happened to MySpace happen to FB.
Google +, Google Buzz, Google Wave (The Threepeat)
Based on the FB MySpace controversy, to beat a dominant social network you need user migration. To do this you need boredom and new features. I myself am quite bored with FB, and wouldn't mind a change. Unfortunately I won't be moving till my friends move. As such, boredom will only get the user base half way.
If Google + wants to beat FB it will have to do more than simply matching it. In its current condition Google + doesn't even quite do that. In their defense, they have some interesting interface ideas with their privacy circles. Unfortunately I just don't see any groundbreaking reason to change.
What Google needs for success in the social market is a game changer. I am not exactly sure Google has what I t takes to compete. Very rarely are companies able to find second acts. Microsoft and Apple found there's with Office/Xbox and iPod respectively. Google has had a myriad of side projects over the years while trying to find their second act (Gmail is admittedly pretty cool). Just like Microsoft however, Google is suffering from classic old monopoly symptoms. They no longer know how to compete. Luckily for Google, they have a tremendous long fall to the bottom. Both Google and Microsoft can never innovate again and still make billions for years to come.
+ isn't Google's first attempt at competing with FB after all. Last year Google announced Buzz. Other than making headlines for some severe privacy violations Buzz was a non starter. Google even tried to gain an instant user base by integrating it with Gmail. Google went about Buzz completely the wrong way, and because of that Buzz was a failure.
Two and a half years ago, Google announced Wave, an innovation that would change the way we interact with computers; the less said about Wave the better. If things don't go their way with +, will they simply call another redo?
My last point is that even if + does come out of beta with creative innovations over FB, will it make a difference? Just because certain conditions killed MySpace doesn't mean the same for FB. FB is now a completely different animal then MySpace. FB now has over half a billion users. It is no longer the case of a bunch of kids getting bored and moving. It is fair to say that FB now has deep roots in our society. It is very well possible that no social network regardless of quality can best it. We will just have to wait and see.

Other Questions. - Killybegs Development Plan.
Wednesday, 23 June 1999
Dáil Éireann Debate
18. Mr. Ferris asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources his views on the development plan for Killybegs produced by Killybegs Offshore Services; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16014/99]
Dr. Woods: I am firmly committed to the development of new infrastructure and facilities at Killybegs to service the needs of the fishing industry and to support potential new commercial opportunities for the port and the north-west region.
In addition to providing £1.5 million this year for essential remedial works at the existing piers, I have provided more than £800,000 for site investigations and survey work in connection with the provision of new berthage facilities outside the existing harbour. The results of these ongoing technical investigations will directly inform decisions on the location, scale and timeframe for completion of the new harbour development.
The feasibility study commissioned by Killybegs Offshore Services sets out a wideranging investment plan of up to £40 million for the port. It is focused primarily on new services for the fishing sector, commercial shipping traffic and potential opportunities which may arise in servicing the offshore exploration industry. The proposals include land reclamation, the provision of deep water non-tidal berthage and the development of an enterprise park.
I will have further consultations in the near future with the Killybegs Offshore Services group, the Killybegs fishing and processing industry and other port users on my plans for new berthage development and on progressing the range of other development proposals for Killybegs. I will also pursue the medium to long-term investment needs of Killybegs and its hinterland with Government colleagues in the context of the National Development Plan 2000-06.
Mr. Bell: On 11 June, the marine correspondent of The Irish Times, writing on these developments, stated that a group of entrepreneurs wanted Killybegs to become the Aberdeen of the north-west. Is the Minister satisfied that the natural resources, which will I hope derive from drill[1136] ing and development, will not find their way to Aberdeen, rather than Donegal and the west coast? Is he satisfied that he and his Department have sufficient control over these matters to ensure maximum benefit for the Irish nation?
Dr. Woods: All of the interested parties want to see development taking place within Ireland. We are currently dealing with exploration and appraisal wells. Developments are ongoing in Killybegs. Hence, the desire that the port be further developed. A report, undertaken by Coopers and Lybrand, set out a potential development scheme for the port. I strongly support those proposals. We want to make use of the port for exploration purposes and, in the event of any substantial finds, we want to ensure the bulk of the work will come into Irish ports.
Mr. Finucane: I assume the Minister has held discussions with Mr. McGoldrick of Enterprise Oil to the effect that if the gas find is successful, it will not end up in Scotland in which the necessary infrastructure is in place. To what degree will the Minister avail of private-public partnerships to sustain a development in Killybegs which will cost in the region of £20 million? Given the type of funding available, it is not possible to sustain that type of investment.
Dr. Woods: I invited interested parties in Killybegs to consider the possibility of private-public investment. To date, there is nothing very positive to report on that. An assistant secretary in my Department is currently pursuing possibilities in that area. One way or another, I envisage considerable development occurring in Killybegs.
Written Answers follow Adjournment Debate.

Secret Single Behavior
Ladies, ladies, ladies –
Let's get real here. Let's get down to the nitty gritty of personal antics. You all have them. Don't deny it. Every single one of you take ownership of your weird, right here and right now. Yes, I'm talking about your secret single behavior. And don't let the 'single' part of that phrase fool you. You don't have to be single to have this type of behavior. In fact, you probably cherish this activity most when you're in a relationship because you can break free from the chains of ::whispers:: your partnered self. Secret single behavior is that thing or things you only dare act out when you are absolutely alone. While solo, you do it unabashedly and enjoy the s**t out of it. And, if you haven't caught the reference already, I'm sure you are all familiar with the Sex and the City episode where the girls share theirs. Carrie owns up to eating stacks of saltines with grape jelly while standing in the kitchen flipping through fashion mags, Charlotte divulges her intense pore examinations and Miranda shares her Vaseline hand moisturizing technique accompanied by infomercial watching. It got me to thinking, "What are my secret behaviors?" which led me to think "What are EVERYONE ELSE'S secret behaviors?' And since I like to project my discomfort on to others I decided to send out my lady bat signal to gather up some of the answers. I have left these amazing answers anonymous because although I may like to make my friends squirm, I'm not cruel. Plus, I like my friends and want them to stick around for awhile (even if they are weird as hell). So away we go!
– "Pluck my eyebrows at the dining room table because that is where the light is best."
– "Walking around my neighborhood with scissors cutting other peoples flowers for a bouquet in my apartment."
– "When I'm unsure of an outfit, I'll use Photobooth to get a more 'real-life' view. In my head, the picture is a closer equivalent to how people actually see me. Writing this out just solidified my crazy."
– "I choreograph stripper girl routines, with the music at full volume. The music is sexy and in my head, so are my moves. I do this when I am feeling bad or unattractive. I feel sexier and happier after I do it. Even though I am sure I look like a moron."
– "I 'plate' my food all fancy-like and present it to myself."
– "I will Nair my feet if I feel they get too 'hairy'."
– "I love watching those murder mystery shows on ID. I never bring it up with anyone, but all those horrible shows with Paula Zahn when she interviews the family and the murderer in jail. They show horrible re-enactments with bad actors."
– "I try on clothes that rarely fit me as a means to see if I've gained or lost weight."
– "I eat chocolate fudge cake while sitting on the couch watching romantic comedies."
– "While I wait for coffee to be ready, I will sometimes eat peanut butter from the jar and salt each individual spoon bite."
– "I will sit naked in my apartment, on a towel on the couch, and drink wine and smoke cigarettes while watching countless hours of Law & Order. I will pluck my errant pubic hairs sometimes while doing this."
– "Doing squats and leg lifts while brushing my teeth."
– "Google/Facebook old friends/exes while drinking wine – it's like reading TMZ, except that I know everyone."
– "Face freshly scrubbed, I love to sit in front of my makeup vanity mirror – you know, the one that magnifies the hell out of my face. I could tweeze the night away. Just when I think I'm finished – another fine little stray hair appears. I like to finish the plucking off with some serious pore examination. I could sit there for hours, squeezing & poking."
– "Wake up on Saturday morning and do nothing but order Papa John's and watch Full House."
– "I wear a mouthguard to bed at night."
– "One of mine is putting on my iPod, turning the volume all the way up, and singing along to each song as if I'm the half-time show at the Superbowl while I clean my bathroom."
– "This week I have secretly been eating meat for lunch because it's kosher for Passover and I have been hiding in the back of the cafeteria so no one knows I am doing it. Before this I was a pescatarian for almost 7 years!"
– "Trimming hairs… everywhere!"
– "You know how in Grey's Anatomy, Meredith and Christina 'dance it out'. I have been doing that for years, ever since I can remember. It can range from modern dance, ballet or simply jumping around."
– "Doing an Aztec secret clay mask while watching General Hospital."
– "I get an embarrassing lot of takeaways [take out] when I'm alone. Miranda's chinese- embarassing."
– "Watching REALLY bad TV. This includes High School Musical and the sequels to The Cutting Edge. I believe they are ABC Family, made for TV. Also the Cinderella Story and its sequels."
– "Doing the dishes in high heels – NAKED!"
And, those are just some of the answers I received! A lot of the answers had to do with plucking and poking and prodding and, surprisingly, many answers were similar. Ladies, don't feel alone in your weird! I'm sure you all know what's coming next. Yep, you got it. Your turn. Since we've proven everyone does it and you now have detailed accounts of the strange, tell us yours. What is your secret single behavior? The juicier, the better. I bet you will be surprised at the fact that you may even find your secret single behavior soulmate somewhere along the way.

Madonna Did Literally Everything on 'Fallon,' Including Stand-Up [VIDEO]
Madonna: Legendary icon. Material Girl. Queen of Pop. Stand-up comedian?
Madonna: Legendary icon. Material Girl. Queen of Pop. Stand-up comedian?
Bad news for Madonna. The singer's 13th studio album 'Rebel Heart' is her worst debut in two decades.
Madonna reveals she "smacked her head" and had "whiplash" during her 2015 BRIT Awards fall on stage.
The sun had yet to set in Los Angeles tonight (Feb. 8), but there was a (nearly) full moon spotted on red carpet of the 2015 Grammy Awards nonetheless -- courtesy of none other than Madonna!
Madonna's upcoming album, 'Rebel Heart,' finally has a release date.
A man who may be tied to the leak of Madonna's 'Rebel Heart' tracks was arrested in Tel Aviv for allegedly hacking into the computers of "several international artists."
Rihanna originally performed 'Vogue' by Madonna for the 2008 Fashion Rocks show, and now it looks like an audio track of the performance has found its way onto the web, nearly seven years later.
Madonna is using her Rebel Heart hashtag to lend support to the recent terrorist attacks that took place at satirical French newspaper, Charlie Hebdo.
Madonna has gone back on record to deny that there's any issue between her and Lady Gaga.
Miley Cyrus has actually co-written one of Madonna's new songs, 'Wash All Over Me.'

The level cap for Borderlands 2, which is currently at 50, will be increased early next year, according to an official representative of developer Gearbox Software, who mentioned this planned update on Twitter.
Borderlands 2 came out in September and has since delighted millions of first-person shooter fans with its addictive gameplay and the great emphasis on loot.
Now, after lots of people finished the game multiple times and reached the level cap of 50, developer Gearbox Software has confirmed that the level cap will be increased in early 2013.
According to Adam Fletcher, the studio's PR & Marketing director, no other details are known, but he did say on Twitter that a more official announcement would be made soon.
Given this lack of an actual date, it seems that the level increase won't be included in the next big expansion for Borderlands 2, Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt, which arrives on January 15.

Deputies have arrested a man who authorities say robbed a Hess gas station at University Boulevard and Rouse Road.
Deputies said the man, identified as Joshua Bennett, entered the store around 12:30 a.m. Saturday.
Surveillance video captured Bennett walking up to the clerk and reaching for what appeared to be a gun in his pocket.
According to deputies, Bennett demanded cash from the worker and then fled the scene in a silver car with damage to the driver's side door.
No customers were inside the store at the time of the robbery but deputies told Local 6 they were looking for any possible witnesses who were outside the gas station at the time of the incident.
Bennett was later found and arrested Saturday.
