Sanderson leaving quite a legacy with Penn State wrestling
College Football Videos
UNIVERSITY PARK — Cael Sanderson has savored the sweet taste of success while leading the Penn State wrestling program to national dominance.
Before big matches, Sanderson will have his wrestlers eat cake to celebrate how well they're going to perform.
It's a practice, borrowed from team counselor and close friend Bonnie Epstein, that Sanderson employs to increase accountability and keep things light, two tenets of his young tenure.
"Anytime you can get kids to really imagine and picture themselves being successful, that's what we want to do," Sanderson said. "Whether it's having a cupcake or them drawing pictures of themselves, it's really important."
Penn State has won the past three NCAA Division I wrestling championships and again is ranked No. 1.
There arguably has been no bigger reason than the polite, soft-spoken Sanderson, one of the greatest collegiate wrestlers of all time and an Olympic champion.
Sanderson, 34, has enjoyed a seamless transition from world-class athlete to coach, something even Wayne Gretzky, Ted Williams and Isiah Thomas failed to do.
"It's about being able to put a team together and try to be the best team in the country or the best program you can be," Sanderson said. "That's exciting to me. I like building stuff."
What Sanderson has built has changed collegiate wrestling, pushing Penn State into the conversation normally reserved for Iowa and Oklahoma State.
How he's done it has been even more unlikely.
Whether it's celebrating in advance, playing the same song over and over at practice as a way to get his wrestlers to tune out background noise or requiring them to draw pictures of themselves, Sanderson's approach hardly is conventional.
"We do so many things where you think, 'Why the heck are we doing this?' " said junior Nico Megaludis, a Franklin Regional graduate. "But it helps."
Commanding respect
Cael Norman Sanderson was born June 20, 1979, in Provo, Utah. Wrestling was what Sanderson boys did. Cael wrestled at Wasatch High School for his father, Steve, compiling a record of 127-3.
Like each of his brothers — Cody, Cole and Cyler, who later transferred to Penn State — Cael went to Iowa State.
Unlike the other three, Cael didn't lose — in 159 matches.
He is the only wrestler in NCAA history to win at least 100 matches and not lose, and he is the only undefeated four-time NCAA champion.
Sanderson appeared on a Wheaties box. Sports Illustrated and ESPN's "SportsCentury" chronicled his career. He won an ESPY.
Yet Sanderson isn't one to brag.
"We have to update résumés from time to time, and Cael got me a résumé that's about half a page long and that didn't speak at all about his wrestling career," Penn State athletic director Dave Joyner said. "It talked about his coaching history. He could have had about a 30-page résumé probably, and he had to go create one. It was all accurate, but it was all about his coaching."
Sanderson reached the pinnacle for amateur wrestlers, winning gold at the 2004 Athens Games. But that hardly guaranteed success as a coach.
A desire to become the best at his profession has led Sanderson to soak up motivational techniques, not only from wrestling minds but also from two of his favorite authors on leadership, John Maxwell and Jack Canfield. Maxwell is an evangelical Christian author, motivational speaker and pastor. Canfield is the co-creator of the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series.
"I don't know where it comes from, but I can say that from the time he was young, he's always been motivated to not necessarily be the best but to be as good as he can be in whatever he does," said Cael's older brother, Cody, who is an assistant coach at Penn State. "That's just how he was from the time that I can remember. Where it comes from I'm not sure, but that's who he is."
A sea of inspiration
Cael Sanderson didn't waste time decorating his office in Penn State's Rec Hall.
His cell phone and a laptop are two of the only items on his desk other than books and a Nittany Lion Wrestling Club program. T-shirts, tucked neatly inside hats commemorating Penn State's accomplishments, sit on top of a bookcase behind Sanderson, who is wearing a straight-brimmed baseball cap and a jacket that fits tight to his muscular frame.
The lone non-wrestling item, outside of pictures of his wife, Kelly, and sons, Tate and Teag, is a Dr. Evil toy Sanderson said a friend gave to him in college. Perhaps, though Sanderson doesn't say this, it was because he doesn't look all that dissimilar to Austin Powers' nemesis.
The most revealing item is a board Sanderson created that crowns Penn State as the 2014 national champions … about four months early. There are drawings Tate and Teag created and pictures of Sanderson's wrestlers having their hands raised after victories.
It also has motivational quotes:
• • •
"Great moments are born from great opportunities." — Herb Brooks
"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people together to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea." — Antoine de Saint-Exupery
• • •
The latter defines Sanderson's coaching style perhaps more than anything else.
"I think you have to look at everything in a playful way and with humility of, 'Is there a better way than what we're doing? Is there a better way to help somebody or reach somebody?' " Sanderson said. "And that's not easy. It's easier just to say, 'This is the way, and you do it.'
"It's really easy as a coach to just tell guys what they need to do. Anybody can do that. Anybody can watch our match and work on finishing a single-leg takedown — because that's easy. That's not coaching. Anyone in the stands can do that. Actually getting them to make an adjustment — that's the challenge. That's what you try to figure out."
Keeping his promise
In addition to cake, Sanderson's unconventional tactics include playing an adjusted version of football before practice or dodgeball after.
He has his wrestlers keep diaries. Occasionally he makes them draw pictures of themselves, a nod to his college major: art and design.
Sanderson, adhering to his belief system, continues the practice alongside his wrestlers.
"You have to do the same things you ask your kids to do," Sanderson said. "If you're telling your kids they have to believe in themselves, I have to believe in them first. If you're telling them to keep a journal, then I need to keep a journal.
"If I'm telling them to work hard, then I need to work hard. If I'm telling them to live a lifestyle, then I need to live the lifestyle.
"It's real easy to share theory. It's another thing to practice it."
Sanderson will blast the same song, sometimes for hours, during practice as a way to "drive the kids crazy." One example — "What does the fox say?" — is worth a trip to YouTube. Two of the more unpopular choices have been He-Man, the cartoon superhero, and square dancing.
"It's a little annoying," former Derry wrestler Jimmy Gulibon said. "But I guess you get used to it."
Why does Sanderson do it?
"You don't get to choose the sounds you hear at the national tournament," he said.
Making his mark
Trading the comforts of Iowa State for Penn State worried Cody Sanderson.
Building stuff was one thing, but Penn State was 8-12-2 the year before the Sandersons arrived in April 2009 and hadn't won a national title since 1953.
This wasn't a new roof. Cael Sanderson wanted to remodel the entire house and build a few more around it.
"I was uncertain about what to do," Cody Sanderson said. "We attended Iowa State. We had a strong connection and tie to the university and team. We had those relationships that you build with guys on the team. It was something we talked about extensively, and we spent a lot of time deciding what would be the best.
"I was a little more uncertain than he was. We decided together with other members of the coaching staff and went for it 100 percent. He went for it 100 percent. You make the decision, you can't look back, and he hasn't."
A contract extension Cael signed in August 2012 that pays him $175,000 a year until 2017 surely doesn't hurt — he ranks among the highest-paid wrestling coaches in the nation. Neither does Penn State's sparkling Lorenzo Wrestling Complex, with flat-screen TVs, a state-of-the-art weight room and pictures of past national champions hanging on the wall.
"I think he felt it was time for him to make a change," Cody Sanderson said. "This was a place he could not necessarily start fresh but do some things that he wanted to do differently."
That Cael Sanderson has done.
And the recipe he's been following has tasted awfully good.
"He's at the top of his game," Joyner said. "We're going for our fourth consecutive NCAA wrestling championship, and I think we're going to have a really solid team. Having him here has just increased the excitement on campus. And really, in a wrestling hotbed, to have this kind of presence and to have what he's been able to do with the team, has added tremendous excitement to campus."

End of an Illusion? Doug Kmiec Resigns as Ambassador to Malta.By
Doug Kmiec has resigned as U.S. Ambassador to Malta.
I'm not surprised by the news. Kmiec's resignation is only the latest episode in a long, slow decline of intellectual integrity which first became public when he endorsed Obama for President in 2008. Kmiec's story and his stories about Obama's true agenda passed beyond absurdity some time ago.
I pity Kmiec personally but I do believe it is important to write about this news involving him because I believe we can all learn a great many lessons about what befalls us when we begin to put our political agendas and personal ambitions ahead of the Gospel.
Kmiec, as we all know at this point, was the most visible Catholic, "pro-life" champion of Obama in the Presidential campaign and since then. He helped convince on-the-fence Catholics (and the wider American population) that Obama's positions could be reconciled with the Catholic Church. His support of Obama was quickly identified as useful to those who wanted Obama elected, and they were happy to supply him with a platform before the election, and a reward after the election (the ambassadorship to Malta).
Then, like all men who serve an expedient purpose for a time, once Kmiec became more of a liability than an asset to the administration, he was first internally criticized, practically reigned-in, and finally allowed to resign – with no assistance from his "friend" Obama.
Liberal Catholics are trying to make Kmiec into a martyr for religious freedom … as if being appointed the ambassador of a seaside resort country –complete with a staff that by Kmiec's own admission he employed as his research assistants– were purgation! Would that religious "oppression" always came with such trappings of prestige and comfort.
Of course Kmiec is not a martyr for religious freedom. He's a constitutional scholar who should have known at the outset that his public voice would have to be sublimated to the real, practical responsibility of being America's official state ambassador to a foreign power.
But that's just the point: the real world is increasingly not the world that Kmiec thinks he inhabits. Kmiec's world ceased to be the real world when he convinced himself (and still tries to convince others) that Obama is a "Catholic" president. The rest of the story is tragically predictable.
This connection between Kmiec's self-delusion about Obama's agenda and his delusion about his actual role in that agenda is the only thing that can begin to make sense of the recurrent disconnect between what Kmiec says about Obama's agenda and politics and what we see happening in the world – what we have seen Obama do, and why the State Department thought it was inappropriate that one of their Mediterranean ambassadors had decided to act as if he was some sort of "religious-based diplomacy" international ambassador-at-large with a personal mandate from the President.
More revealing still is to see how Kmiec's top enablers – progressive Catholics – expected Kmiec's battle against the state department to go his way. Joe Furella wrote five days ago:
"Obama now needs to step in, along with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and support the man who has supported them."
Well, the Obama cavalry clearly never arrived. That's because it was never sent. That's because Kmiec used to serve Obama's needs, and now he doesn't. None of that was hard to predict.
Michael Sean Winters is an even better example of liberal self-delusion in this situation. 10 days ago he accused Jack Smith of the Catholic Key of "making a molehill out of a molehill" by bringing up Kmiec's reprimand by the State Department. Well then, by Winters' own admission, Kmiec evidently resigned over a molehill, or it wasn't actually a molehill in the first place, and Winters was wrong. Who's surprised?
Winters tried to argue instead that Kmiec's extra-curricular activities constituted a "deepening of his official duties, rather than a straying from them." But reality would disagree. Kmiec's unilateral interpretation of his responsibilities were opposed to the commitment he made to U.S. officials when he accepted the diplomatic position they offered him.
Instead, to explain the Kmiec problem, liberal Catholics have tried to create this new absurdity about Kmiec's previous political statements somehow targeting him for political revenge.
But even this is untenable. So all Winters has left is to falsely claim: "…everyone, not just Catholics, are scratching their heads over [Kmiec's resignation]." Well, I'm not confused. I would suggest the proper reaction isn't to scratch one's head, it's to open one's eyes. I'll explain.
Liberal Catholics who enable Obama's agenda constantly fall into the temptation of thinking Obama loves their "Catholic" positions, when he in fact loves that their "Catholic" positions endorse his political program. To make a Chess metaphor, Kmiec and liberal Catholics are pawns who think they are bishops and are thereby taken by surprise whenever their King decides to sacrifice them in his own defense. Kmiec's posturing in his Maltese position was becoming an embarrassment for the current administration, so they told him to quit it. He decided to quit entirely, because he cared more about his non-diplomatic role than his actual diplomatic role.
At the beginning of this Lent I issued a letter to prominent Catholics who publicly supported Barack Obama: "Come Clean on Obama." In it, I named Kmiec as one of the Catholics I was calling to.
Now, in the final week of Lent, Kmiec has before him visible, tangible, unavoidable evidence that what he thought Obama wanted him to do was not the case. His illusion about what Obama wanted him to do has come to an end. Now is the time for Kmiec to reexamine what else about Obama he may have gotten wrong – for him to confront the deeper illusion. Now is the time to come clean. It's never too late.
Deacon Keith Fournier says that Kmiec has come home. Sadly, he has only done so in the geographical sense. It remains to be seen – and I pray that it does come to pass – if he will come home to the full reality about Obama's agenda and how it fundamentally opposes our Catholic principles, principles which lead to human flourishing in the real world because they match the reality God has inscribed in the world and in each of us.
In the meantime, my Lenten prayer for this pro-Obama Catholic must remain.

Thinking about binge drinking!
What are the positive aspects to binge-drinking? And are health experts too quick to condemn what has been part of British culture since the days of the Vikings?
Professor Anna van Wersch
These are just some of the controversial issues raised in a study by a Dutch- born academic at Teesside who has been observing the British taste for 'binge drinking' for a number of years.
Professor Anna van Wersch, a psychologist in the School of Social Sciences & Law, has published her findings in an article in the Journal of Health Psychology (1).
As well as reviewing existing academic research on the subject, she and colleague, Wendy Walker from Leeds University, drew on detailed interviews with 32 people aged between 22 and 58 living in the North East of England. The sample included English and non-English alcohol drinking people (20 females and 12 males). Most were from northern England, but two Greeks, one Northern Irish person and one Londoner, were included for contrast.
Professor van Wersch explained that while official data tends to quantify binge drinking as five consecutive standard drinks in one sitting for men and four for women, the researchers explained to participants they were using the term 'binge- drinking' to mean 'a drinking occasion leading to intoxication'.
Positive aspects and risky consequences
And their findings highlighted some positive aspects despite possible risky consequences of 'binge-drinking, such as unplanned pregnancies and alcohol poisoning. Time and time again those being interviewed spoke of 'the culture of a binge drinker' being 'embedded in our national Zeitgeist' and 'accepted as the norm'. Others contrasted English drinking patterns with other European countries and saw 'weekend binge drinking' as a cultural pattern that people were socialised into and which demarcated leisure from time in the UK.
'For many binge-drinking was easier and tended to involve more people than say going out for a meal or to the cinema,' said Professor van Wersch, who admits to been taken aback by the British drinking culture when she first moved to England from Holland 12 years ago.
'There is a marked contrast to drinking alcohol in a 'dry culture' like Britain, where many people don't drink during the week because they have got work next day and don't want to suffer from a hangover and the Mediterranean countries and other 'wet cultures' like Holland, where it is quite normal to have a beer or a glass of wine every day with your meal,' she said.
The research gave examples of this contrast between 'wet' and 'dry' cultures, with one Greek participant saying that 'binge-drinking' was part of the English 'pub culture', which he only engaged in when in the UK. Another Greek said: 'In Greece we say let's go out to have a drink, while in England you say to go out because you want to get drunk.'
Social aspect to drinking
Professor van Wersch said: 'We found the social aspect to drinking alcohol reflected again and again, with all the participants saying they were in company the last time they got drunk and several saying drinking alone was 'pointless'. Getting drunk was about sharing happy feelings with others and being sociable.'
Participants in the research project were invited to reveal positive notions of binge drinking as well as negative effects. Positives included increased confidence, relaxed mood and reduction of inhibitions. Hangovers were cited as the main downside because they seriously limited next day activities, another reason for only binge-drinking at weekends. Regret was another negative, such as becoming more intimate with members of the opposite sex, more aggressive or saying things one wished one hadn't and losing a bit of control.
The research paper also highlighted the constraints and cultural norms to drinking alcohol in the UK, such as saving oneself for 'big nights' out and abstinence during the week justifying 'binge-drinking' at weekends.
Professor van Wersch noted the British tendency to change drinking habits depending on the company, with comments like 'If you're out with work, you've got to maintain a certain image and behave in a certain way.'
'In Holland people's attitudes to drinking alcohol are not really so dependant on who they are with,' she said.
So what conclusion does Professor van Wersch as a foreign observer of British culture?
'People in England are more high achievers than the Dutch. The quality of their work has to be perfect and their performance is much higher. There's a lot of pressure to do well and to behave appropriately and control one's emotions and that can be stressful. That's why I think the British put so much emphasis in having something to look forward to at the weekend: a chance to let off steam and let their hair down.'
Is it justified? 'What we are saying is that there are cultural explanations for it. The drinking is so embedded in the culture here. It's very hard for young people to resist. Everyone from a young age is integrated into this culture.'
'And if people didn't have the 'big night out with their friends' to look forward to, what would they do and feel like at the end of the week? We don't want a nation on Prozac, do we?'
'Although binge-drinking is exceeding healthy limits and despite public health warnings and the Government's focus on the anti-social behaviour that accompanies it, no participant in this study mentioned these factors as a downside without being prompted. On the contrary only positive connotations were highlighted by the people we spoke to who said it reflected British ways of celebrating, relaxing and enjoying themselves.
'The main difference between dry and wet cultures is that in the wet cultures people drink because they enjoy the taste of a glass of wine or beer but not with the intention to get drunk. In dry cultures the taste does not seem matter much as long as there's alcohol in it and it helps the sedation process.
'The main question is: If we are going to abandon the binge drinking experience what are we going to replace it with to guarantee that people relax and can have a laugh together with their friends? My follow up research interviewing people in other dry and wet cultures might shine some light on possible answers," said Professor Van Wersch.
- However, an opposing point of view comes from Gordon Mitchell, Principal Lecturer in Mental Health at the University's School of Health & Social Care. He has worked directly with people who binge-drink; then move on to alcohol dependency and physical damage to their liver. 'I see the destructive effects of alcohol and the social impact it can have upon someone's family, with loss of employment, divorce and social exclusion. I'm not convinced that the binge-drinking culture goes back so far as from the Vikings, as we (British) are mostly decedents from Anglo-Saxon origin. The Vikings' influence was only really in the north of Scotland and parts of northern England.' He suggests that if binge-drinking is part of British culture, it is only because the media have picked up on it and possibly made it an 'in-thing' to do. 'I also think the alcohol and pub trade has encouraged this approach by their happy hours promotions early on in the evening. They should be encouraging responsible drinking throughout the evening. There's been a cultural change in the British approach to alcohol in more recent times, with the increase in female drinkers and younger drinkers. These groups are not only drinking at weekend, but drinking throughout the week. What we need to do is encourage people to change their drinking habits and take on a more European approach. We need to tackle the 'binge-drinking' culture by looking at how we sell and market alcohol in this country as well as promoting the health issues surrounding drinking large amounts of alcohol.'

Ah... my personal rules of food and dating... LOL Sushi- I love sushi... but if your date isn't used to it, its a hassle... and I've gotten food poisoning from sushi once... so I wouldn't risk it. It would be my luck on a hot date night to get sick. Italian- If its not your first date then yeah. Otherwise, don't order anything with tomato sauce... no matter how hard I try I always get some on the shirt and stains on the corners of my mouth. Then theres the garlic issue... Tapas- I think this is great for a blind date or first date. Its light... and faster than a big meal... so if you like the guy, your not over full, and you can suggest going out for dessert or drinks... and if not... the date is over quicker. Mexican- Not for first dates. If the place is too spicey, or too oniony... you get what I mean. Seafood- Good for first dates I think. Light, you won't leave the impression that you eat gobs of food, and if things get going the right way... you won't be to full to have fun.

I think Sushi is perfect because you don't feel overloaded and full afterwards, there's no extremely offensive smells associated with it and it's fun!

It's not what you eat, it's how you eat it. I'm a bit of a romantic, so on a date, it's important for my lips to look mouth-watering, so whatever I eat is seemingly decadent...just make sure you bring your travel size toothpaste & tooth brush and you'll be fine...he'll be so fixated on your mouth, he won't be too concerned with what you ate. Smile & Enjoy your food~

Sushi- A) Shows that you know what you want, and are brave enough to try different things..and NO California rolls don't count B) Sushi is interactive, Wasabi, ginger, dipping, chopsticks, Sake, plum wine….its so much fun C) If he doesn't know about sushi, its awesome to show him the ropes. D) If he refuses to eat it…dump him
herjoiedevivre 8 years
I'd eat everything except for sushi. thai, seafood and italian are my favorites, but I think I'd prefer to stick to thai for date night- no slurping of the italian noodles and no messy fingers breaking crab. I've had enough mexican for a lifetime.

I'll eat anything, except maybe strong onions. But, I picked TAPAS because I think it's the most fun! Pick a bunch of dishes and share, sometimes eating with fingers - very sexy.

I think tapas are the best option, you can try a little bit of everything and keep going with the conversation cause they are just small portions and it's also fun to share ;)

Depends on the situation. I haven't had a first date in a LONG time, but my first date with my husband was to a ballpark! We had hot dogs! But I'd say that Italian is safe. I'd probably steer clear of Mexican - it can upset my tummy. :(

K my plan on first dats is to get something in the middle. I NEVER get salad because guys jsut HATE that and plus big leaves are hard to get into you mouth without making a mess, and i don't want to get the msot expensive steak either... So usually I will get pasta of some sort, it's always a safe way to go!

Definitely depends on the person, the situation, and the location. After all, I live in the land of Tex-Mex and barbecue. I've been on many Tex-Mex dates.

SpaceX's Merlin engines, after last year's failure, are ready for liftoff
SpaceX has a resupply mission to the International Space Station planned for March 1 of this year. The cargo will be carried up in one of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rockets, but the rocket will be powered by the Merlin engines that experienced failure during a launch on October 7 of last year. However, despite an investigation into the engine failure not yet being closed, NASA says SpaceX's Merlin engines are finally ready to go.
During the launch on October 7 of last year, the engine shut down just 79 seconds in, and debris shot from the bottom, which led some to speculate that the engine had actually exploded in some fashion. However, SpaceX said the engine shut down as it was supposed to, and the debris was most likely from the pressure shattering an aerodynamic cover.
The Merlin rocket engine, initially designed for sea recovery and reuse, uses liquid oxygen and Rocket Propellant-1 as propellants, and has gone through five revisions and variants so far, with a sixth planned for SpaceX's upcoming Falcon Heavy space flight system.
Mike Suffredini, NASA's ISS program manager, has reassured everyone that the Merlin engine has undergone heavy testing and everything should be just fine. He said that the units have not been testing beyond their intended usage, and that the teams are "completely satisfied that the right amount of work has been done on these systems." Hopefully with this amount of new testing the launch shouldn't be met with failure this time around.

Vanderbilt football coach James Franklin referred to an allegation against him in a Buzzfeed.com report as "baseless statements" on Monday.
The story about the Vanderbilt rape case that led to the dismissal of four football players, and the suspension of a fifth, alleged that Franklin "encouraged a player to delete a video of the incident after the player showed it to Franklin," according to "a source close to one of the defendants."
Franklin was asked about the allegation during his ...

|Near real-time, on-site, quantitative analysis of PAHs in the aqueous environment using an antibody-based biosensor.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21547938 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Rapid, on-site, quantitative assessments of dissolved polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were demonstrated for two field applications. The platform, a KinExA Inline Sensor (Sapidyne Instruments), employed the monoclonal anti-PAH antibody, 7B2.3, which has specificity for 3- to 5-ring PAHs. A spatial study was conducted near a dredging site where contaminated sediments were being removed, and a temporal study was performed during a rainfall event. Most importantly, the generation of near real-time data guided management decisions in the field and determined proper sampling protocols for conventional analyses. The method was able to determine PAH concentrations as low as 0.3 µg/L, within 10 min of sample acquisition, and to assess 80+ samples (not including standards and blanks) in less than 3 d. These results were compared with a laboratory-based gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method in which a wide array of PAHs, including alkylated homologs, were examined. This system shows great promise as a field instrument for the rapid monitoring of PAH pollution. Environ. Toxicol. Chem. © 2011 SETAC.

I keep these fish at 76-80°F. I use tap water (pH 7, 220 ppm) that has oak leaves and filter bags of peat moss added (I just put the bag in the tank). Malaysian driftwood also helps color the water. I usually keep floating plants with them also. It's not necessary to remove the parents after spawning, the father takes care of the babies until they leave the nest and neither parent bothers the young after they leave the nest.
Most spawnings I ignore and let the fry fend for themselves. You just find young fish in the tank later. With this particular spawn I saw some babies fall out of the film canister and then the mom darted over and ate them! The male chased her away but I decided to pull the film canister out. I took a picture of it below. Removing the fry probably leads to higher numbers of surviving fry, but it can be tricky. If you remove the eggs they won't hatch. I think the male needs to mouth them to get them to hatch. But if you wait too long the fry leave the nest. With this batch the spawning occurred on 10/14/05 and the fry were pulled just before they got too active, on 10/18/05. It's likely that some fry had already left or been eaten. I've seen spawns of 50 or 60, but this canister has about 20 fry.
Well, here's an update (1-3-06). I have raised the roughly 20 fry that were removed in this film canister but about 40 (or more) fish had already left the nest and are still swimming happily with their parents! I might as well have left them alone. I also just saw a book that showed pictures of wild caught brownorum and not all of them had spots. This makes me feel better because I was wondering why so many of the fish I've raised don't have the spot on each side. What's really strange is some fish have a spot on one side and not on the other!

Ecchymosis, or more commonly known as a "black eye," usually occurs from some type of trauma to the eye, causing the tissue around the eye to become bruised. Your doctor will examine the eye closely to make sure there's no damage to the actual eye itself.
Specific treatment for a black eye will be determined by your doctor based on:
Your age, overall health, and medical history
Extent of the injury
Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
Expectations for the course of the injury
Your opinion or preference
Most black eyes heal completely and don't cause any damage to the eye. Treatment may include:
Cold compresses to the eye for the first 24 hours
Warm compresses to the eye after the first 24 hours
Continued compresses until the swelling stops
Keep the head elevated to help decrease the amount of swelling
It's important to know that the swelling and bruise may appear to spread and go down the cheek or to the other eye. This is normal. Consult your doctor if the bruising and swelling doesn't resolve on its own.

Started to use Google's Picasa for managing photos and images, and possibly later i'll also use Google's Picasa Web Albums.
Google's software are quite the best among competitors. For example, Picasa features face recognition. This can let you easily organize your photos of family and friends. It is also integrated with Google's Blog and Google Earth. So, you can easily comment a photo and publish it on Blogger or Google Earth. Face recognition is a very difficult problem. Such software are usually sold for tens of thousands of dollars in security industry. I'm not aware of any consumer level photo software that has face recognition feature. Google made it free!
Two of the things i really love about Picasa is that:
If you look at the content of ".picasa.ini", it is like this:
[DSCN3137.JPG] filters=tint=1,0.497076,ffffffff; backuphash=16697 [DSCN3139.JPG] text=1;138;17;Xah Lee;Arial;0.128993,0.146344,0.033333,0.000000;v1,4294967295,4278190080,128.000000,1.000000,0.000000,1.000000,400,0,49152;; backuphash=34788 textactive=1
This is fantastic! This means, it doesn't actually store a edited version of your image, but just a tech description of the edit. This is really smart, and does not hog your disk space, and you don't have to deal with multiple versions of your images.
Picasa is well integrated with Google Picasa Web for easy upload and sync, as well as Blogger and Google Earth. Picasa Web has 1 G free storage for your photos or image files. One might think it's useful as a backup scheme. Not so. Here's few points:
Picasa is not really intuitive. You have to spend quite some time to get used to the user interface. You'll also take a hour or two to get familiar with Picasa Web well. ⁖ whether your photos can be seen by others, how to change them, etc.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - Flooding on a Lexington roadway caused issues for several drivers Saturday morning, including a Police cruiser who had gone out to help a stranded vehicle.
Officials say the cruiser got stuck in high water after traveling down the road to try to help another driver who was stranded.
They say when the cruiser got on the scene, the other driver was gone, but the cruiser itself became stranded in the high water under the bridge, and had to call for help.
Rescue crews came out and were able to get the cruiser out of the high water and back onto the roadway.
Officials warn those out driving to never try to drive down a flooded roadway.

Above a babbling creek, a vintage weekend cabin in northern California got modernized without sacrificing period details. How? Sonoma-based architect Amy Alper, a member of the Remodelista Architect and Designer Directory, essentially wrapped the old building in a new, light-filled shell to take advantage of the Calistoga property's spectacular views:
Planning a rustic weekend getaway? See Steep Ravine Cabins: $1 Million Views for $100 a Night.
Photographs by Eric Rorer via Amy Alper.
Above: Built in the 1920s, a cabin set on a hillside above a creek in Calistoga, California was used historically as a weekend retreat. But the original floor plan didn't take advantage of the setting; for instance, you couldn't see the creek from the windows. Enter architect Amy Alper, with a plan to remodel the space.
See 73 more of our Favorite Cabins.
Above: Huge redwoods and mature fir trees shade the property. Alper opened up the interior rooms to welcome in more sunlight and to create sight lines from the windows to the creek.
See 67 more Cabins in the Woods in our Photo Gallery.
Above: Alper's design includes a double-heigh living room addition that wraps around the exterior of the cabin.
Above: A hallway addition with floor-to-ceiling windows on one wall and the preserved original exterior of the cabin on the other.
Above: "The original cabin exterior is preserved and featured as a backdrop to the new spaces," architect Alper said in an interview with Freshome. Vintage windows were moved and reused in the model, and redwood timbers from the original deck also found a home in the modernized cabin.

11. When Galaxy S4 logo starts to appear, it is instructed to disconnect the device from the PC.
12. In case any problem occurs like freezing etc. While following the process and the installation remains unfinished, it is advised to repeat the whole process once again.
13. Remember one more thing, if ODIN gives a sign of completion of the process but the phone is not able to get started in Normal Mode, go to the 'Factory Reset' that will clear away the data off the phone's system partition but not from other parts of the Galaxy S4. Follow these stages to apply the Factory reset:
- Turn off the Samsung Galaxy S4.
- Now, the phone is to be booted in Stock Recovery Mode.
- Choose either option 'wipe data or 'factory reset' and give confirmation for it.
- Finally, the phone is to be boot up again in normal mode.
So, the installation of Android 4.4.2 XXUFNA5 Test ROM on Samsung Galaxy S4 is over and one can start enjoying its new features.

A house fire on McAllister Street in Penn Township Monday afternoon temporarily displaced four residents because of smoke damage to the rooms and contents of the house, officials said.
Fire crews from Penn Township and Hanover Borough responded to the blaze at 169 McAllister St. at about 12:40 p.m., said Fire Chief Jan Cromer.
There was fire in two second-floor bedrooms, and smoke throughout the second floor when firefighters arrived. Cromer said the fire was under control within five minutes.
The two-story structure is owned and occupied by Shane Eltz, along with his wife, Christine Eltz, and their children, Jakob, 14, and Dustin Ebaugh, 19, Cromer said.
The Red Cross was called to the scene to assist the family with clothing and lodging, Cromer said.
Cromer estimated a total of $45,000 in damages to the structure and contents.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, he said Monday.

Currently Reading: Crazy For God by Francis Schaeffer
About two weeks ago Francis Schaeffer appeared on CSPANs BookTV promoting his latest book, a memoir: Crazy For God. When listening to the introduction it clicked who he was and I was instantly interested. Actually what hit me first was in the introduction he was said to have been homeschooled. By the time the introduction was done I realized that he was part of THAT Schaeffer family.
(I have BookTV rated as three thumbs-up on my TiVo DVR so it sometimes will automatically record new shows for me to watch. That is how this show came to be recorded and later watched by me.)
About six years ago, while reading about homeschooling methods I was referred to read a book on the Charlotte Mason method written by a woman named Susan Schaeffer MaCaulay titled "For The Children's Sake". (It was recommended to me by four different people from all walks of life before I ended up buying it and finally reading it.) I found the book inspiring as MaCauley attempted to define what it means to be 'educated', although it was a bit dry in some parts. Also when I finished the book I was more curious than ever about the Charlotte Mason method but still didn't "get" how to actually "do" the Charlotte Mason method of home education. (Susan is the sister of Francis, I now know.)
The Schaeffer family is American; they were Christian, Calvinist, missionaries living in the Alps, in Switzerland, in a place they called L'Abri, which is where their children were raised. The children were homeschooled and their education consisted of plenty of time playing outdoors and listening to books read aloud to them by their mother, many classics and books suited for people older than their age.
In the BookTV show, Schaeffer said that he was dyslexic and could not read until he was eleven years old. I'm not done with the book yet but did read that he was a bit 'rebellious' and already have read that he was using pot and hallucinogenic mushrooms at age 15. He got his girlfriend pregnant and married her (and is still happily married to her). He now lives in Massachusetts and is a member of a Greek Orthodox church.
This memoir seemed so interesting to me that I placed a hold on this brand new book at a nearby library. I am on chapter three right now. It is interesting so far.
So far I know very little about the now-deceased father, Francis Schaeffer. I do know he wrote a book for Christians telling them how they should ideally live, a book which is highly regarded by some even today. Right now their mother is 92 and has Alzheimer's Disease.
I don't know a lot of history of the Christian movement in America and the ties with the Republican Party. I know people say that all the time but I don't really know or understand the exact relationship. I don't know much about the big names in the Christian movement either (Pat Robertson and others). In the show he said that near the end of his father's life his father was not so happy with his own role in the Christian movement and with the Republican Party and I want to know more about that. I am also curious mostly to hear how Schaeffer grew up, what it was like at L'Abri, what his home education was like and how he arrived to change from being a Fundamentalist Christian to become Greek Orthodox. I am always interested in hearing people's stories of their spiritual journeys. I'm not reading this to find 'dirt' on anything related to Christianity or Evangelical Christians or Fundamentalist Christians.
I was interested also in 'splintering' which Schaeffer mentioned. He said that from its very inception America has always been a splintering group of people. Splintering is when a group of people seeks to only be around others of very like minds. They splinter off into a small group and they put down the others that believe the opposing view. Then when the small splinter group disagrees with each other, they further splinter down to smaller and smaller groups. Splintering groups usually don't exhibit what I would call tolerance. They can't 'agree to disagree'. They feel they must 'take sides'.
On the show he said that one issue with splintering in America is that it usually is not enough to go into a small splintered group but they often must show hatred for the other group. He used MoveOn.org as an illustrating example that it is not enough that they support their viewpoints and opinions but he said they take it to a hatred of others who don't agree with them. I have seen this over and over in different situations. I have seen it with some people I know personally doing this to others in their family. I have seen it within the American homeschooling community. I see it in a more distant and less personal way with political organizations and with environmental groups. Schaeffer joked that he should write a book about that next and I frankly wish he would. I can't wait to read what he says about splintering in Crazy For God.
On the BookTV show someone asked how he thought that Christians would take the book. He said they would be in two camps, probably. Some would never read the book saying that anything that is negative about Christians or his family is something they want to avoid. The others would read it and be relieved to hear that the Schaeffer family is not as perfect as his parents tried to make out that they were (and therefore expected all other Christians to be as perfect), and it would make them feel better about their own selves.
The reason I don't know much about the Christian movement in America is I was raised in a Godless home. I don't have a lot of years of knowing or understanding what it even means to live the life of a Christian let alone a Fundamentalist Christian life or an Evangelical Christian life. It will be interesting to learn more about this, I think.
So far the book is very easy to read and interesting. So far the book is not negative in tone or filled with hate (which I bet some people will assume it is).
I also learned that Schaeffer has written a trilogy of fiction which he says some characters and events are largely based on his family and some of their real life experiences. I wonder what those books are like?

The pastor at our church loves Francis Schaeffer. I haven't read any of his books, but I found your discovery of his son's book so interesting! I was raised in a Godless home as well for the most part. But in my adult life, I'm striving to learn more about being a Christian and what that means. I'm kind of interested in learning about their family, and I'll be checking that book out. Thanks for sharing your insights!

I did get the impressionfrom reading some things that Mr. Schaeffer (younger) himself has written that the book would be hateful and disrespectful to his parents, but I'm anxious to read it myself to see firsthand what he has to say. I know that no families are perfect, but I get rather defensive on the behalf of those who are unable (Edith Schaeffer) or not around (Francis) to defend themselves.

Hi. I also homeschool using CM and classical. I am a believer in Christ. I hope that you will follow the Schaeffer family's story from many sides. I have mostly read books by Edith. She is very encouraging in the area of family life. She writes beautifully! I really don't pay attention to the added titles to "christian". My relationship with Christ is a personal daily reality. I pray and read my Bible,not as often as I should but I try. Also, I have found it very helpful to listen to online sermons while I clean my kitchen. Check out audio sermons by Carl Robbins at www.woodruffroad.com. They are excellent! Also, Jerram Barrs has a class on Francis Schaeffer offered free online from Covenant Seminary. It is very informative about their lives.
Loving our children, washing dirty faces and hands, cooking, exploring God's creation, these are the ways I live my life in faith. Homeschooling mothers often feel so burdened. Jesus said "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matthew 11:28,29 I try to do this, sometimes I fail but... God really is there.

SILVER CITY >> The Gila Conservation Education Center has hired a new director.
Adrienne Booth was hired as the organization's Managing Director. Booth assumed leadership after Barbara Nuzzi retired at the end of June.Booth was born in Seattle but grew up on the South Side of Chicago, where many members of her family worked in the steel mills.
"Growing up in that place shaped my understanding of environmental issues and the importance conservation education," she said. She has also lived in urban and rural New England, and spent 20 years in Austin, Texas, before moving to New Mexico in 2008.
The first person in her family to complete college, she attended Harvard on scholarship and graduated with a bachelor's degree in Visual and Environmental Studies, with honors. She did graduate work in Geography at Texas State University and Media Arts at New Mexico Highlands University, with a focus on interpretation of natural and cultural resources. Her professional experience includes work for Texas State Parks, where she coordinated an intensive training program for front-line managers of 125 state parks and historic sites. In Silver City, before joining GCEC, she worked as an outreach assistant and Visitor Center volunteer coordinator for the Southwest New Mexico chapter of the Green Chamber of Commerce.
"GCEC is very excited about Adrienne coming on board as our new Manager," said Bob Wilson, chairman of the organization's board of directors. "The dynamic skill sets and experience she brings to our organization will hold us in good stead and greatly enhance conservation education in southwest New Mexico."
"I'm humbled by the opportunity to be a part of this organization," Booth said. "Our region includes New Mexico's last free-flowing river as well as three wilderness areas and many historic sites. Yet surveys show that as many as 30 to 50 percent of students in Grant County have never actually been to a local river, so there is so much work to be done to help our community understand, enjoy, and protect the very special resources here."
The Gila Conservation Education Center programming currently reaches more than 5,000 children and adults each year, and they are looking to expand their outreach through partnerships with the Gila National Forest, WNMU, Aldo Leopold Charter School, and other organizations, Booth said.
"We have many fun and informative programs lined up for this fall, including unveiling our new River Otter discovery trunk in early September," she said. "We encourage everyone to check our online calendar for other events."
To request a Discovery Trunk presentation, get additional information, or contact GCEC about volunteer opportunities, visit gcecnm.org or Booth at 575-388-8265.

Couldnt agree more , Soundwhoring perks have no place in CoD , Dead Silence promotes movement, Sithrep pro promotes camping PERIOD !!!!!!!
Not watching your 9 minute video that probably isnt even yours, I think IW will be ok.
Post edited. OP, you can created captivating discussion without the profanity.
Chief Forum Moderator
Modern Warfare, Black Ops, Ghosts
Sith huh? Star Wars fan Foxhound?
2 things:
1) i dont think anyone here is going to watch/listen for 9 mintues to a guy just complaining the whole time.
2) the reason for making sitrep cancel out dead silence is because before then, dead silence had NO counter. It was one of the only things in the game that DID NOT have a counter and since they try to make everything have a counter, they made sitrep hear dead silence so it WOULD have a counter.
If you are so worried about people camping with this, do what us normal and capable players do.......tube them or throw an explosive around the corner. That simple. There is no excuse for you to have that much trouble with people who use this perk. I am going to assume you are a runner and dont like to check your corners so all i have to say is, SLOW DOWN and CHECK YOUR CORNERS. It will help you somewhat avoid this perk if you just use common sense and caution instead of just rushing around everywhere.
fist the guy's made a youtube career out of complaining about everything regardless of his facts are correct or not.. yeah think i'll pass on that one
what are the rules on profanity anyhow? ill have a word or two pop up every now and then but its not really excessive on my part
I watched the video out of boredom rather than curiousity, although he has somewhat of a point, if you apply his logic on sitrep/dead silence you need to apply it to every other perk/element of the game.
I mean whats the point in having killstreaks when there are perks that counter them? they may aswell call them "sometimes kill someone streaks"
Thats sarcasm by the way.
So what if dead silence has a counter? not every player will use it, just the same as not every player will use off the grid or recon or any other perk in the game.
You'll just have to deal with it the same as everyone else has to.
If having a counter to something is that much of a deal then cod really isnt the game for you as pretty much everything has a counter.
Camping is a strategy, if you don't like it don't play. At least it's not exploiting, QSing, etc. Sitrep or not I will camp when I feel the need to make you cry.
Odd. I used Sitrep on my rushing SMG class so that I could see enemy equipment and the sound whoring was also nice. And I used Dead Silence on my class that I liked to go parkour with due to the no fall damage benefit. When I came across a camper, I'd just shoot them regardless of which perk I used. I must have been doing it wrong. It's probably like how Assassin ruined the game according to every YTer on the planet and yet you can't find a video from any of them this year in which they aren't using Ghost on every class. I'd say that this argument is much the same. The only reason YTers complain about it is because they know that they can easily hear their enemies with their high dollar headsets and they don't want anyone else to have that advantage. It's not good for their high score gameplays. I find this argument to be rather shallow and self serving.
PS: I didn't watch the video. The argument is old and not worth 9 minutes of my time.

A Guide to the Seth Kantor Papers
Biographical Note
Born in New York City in 1926, Seth Kantor came of age at the outbreak of World War II and joined the U.S. Marine Corps in 1943. He served in a combat platoon of the Third Marine Division at Iwo Jima and Guam. After the war, Kantor attended Wayne State University while working full time for the Detroit bureau of the Associated Press. He worked at various small newspapers in Colorado from 1948 to 1950 and subsequently wrote for numerous Scripps-Howard papers including the Fort Worth Press and the Dallas Times Herald. He was called before a Senate subcommittee for his reporting on a defense contract, refusing to give up his confidential source.
Leaving Scripps-Howard to work for the Detroit News, Kantor wrote hard-hitting investigative pieces on Richard Nixon's campaign finances, the neglect of welfare children, and the Fednet computer system for gathering secret information on individuals and institutions. During the late 1970s and 1980s he worked for Cox newspapers including the Atlanta Constitution and the Austin American-Statesman, covering the Carter administration, the Middle East, the U.S.S.R., the Jim Wright financial scandal, and many other world events.
Kantor was with President John F. Kennedy's press entourage when the president was assassinated in Dallas, and Kantor spent many years investigating the background of Jack Ruby. He published Who Killed Jack Ruby? in 1978, calling into question the Warren Commission's report particularly as it pertained to Ruby's potential involvement in the assassination plot. He also published a book on Nazi saboteurs living in the United States. Seth Kantor died in 1993 at the age of 67.

Scope and Contents
Original clippings, research files, publications, and correspondence comprise the bulk of the Seth Kantor Papers. A strength of the collection is Kantor's extensive research into Jack Ruby and the John F. Kennedy assassination. Another area of interest is the U.S. national political landscape from the 1960s to the 1980s and Kantor's coverage of the presidency, as well as his in-depth investigative reporting on such issues as child welfare, government intrusion on privacy, and campaign finance. Another important aspect of the collection is Kantor's determined defense of his journalistic "qualified privilege" of maintaining the confidentiality of his sources.
