[Ecademy interviews] Tell your story, brilliantly. Meet Sue Richardson.
I have known Sue Richardson for some time now, and every time I meet her I am struck by two things. A. her genuine nature. And B. her thorough knowledge of publishing. It's great to see her carving out a profitable niche market, helping people publish books about themselves and their businesses.The book as the marketing tool is a popular approach, but what sets Sue apart is her ability to help people find the nuggets that make a good story, and then turn that into a book that engages people. She is truly a safe pair of hands.In our interview Sue talked a lot about the kinds of books she's got in the pipeline and you can watch the final show below. If you're thinking about doing an ebook, maybe Sue could help you turn it into something truly special?This interview is one of 16 I conducted late last year with fellow Ecademists. Please take a moment to look at more of them - you'll find the full list here.

Storm-tossed skies, lashing winds, and melancholy poses distinguish Jack Vettriano's mournful "Elegy for a Dead Admiral." Britain's most popular living artist, Vettriano is nicknamed "The People's Painter," and has set sales records at Sotheby's. He brings the dispirited atmosphere of this painting to life with his expert command of rich colors, somber composition, and an intriguing underlying narrative. Needing to feel emotionally uncomfortable while he works, Vettriano often paints while listening to Leonard Cohen's requiems.
© Art.com
Jack Vettriano, one of Britain's most popular and successful living artists has been nicknamed "The People's Painter." Born and raised in a Scottish mining town, Vettriano intended to work underground as a mining engineer until a girlfriend gave him a set of paints and his career sharply detoured into art. Needing to feel emotionally uncomfortable to create his edgy, atmospheric dramas, the self-taught Vettriano often listens to Leonard Cohen's requiems while he works. Known for toiling tirelessly until a painting is completed, Vettriano has sold more works than Dali, Monet and Van Gogh, and his sales set a record at Scotland Sotheby's.

I am going nuts not anouncing this pregnancy to the world. I want to tell everyone that I am pg and not just "putting on a few" lol. even though I went to my ob and everything is looking good, I am still so afraid that will all change at my next appointment. (July 25th) I think I will tell everyone after that. although I really want to do it right now. I know this topic was posted before but... what are you all doing? telling yet or keeping it on the down low?

Our last one was 2/11....and we didn't announce until xmas of 2010. :)

Posted 07/05/2012
I'm waiting till my first US at nine weeks next Monday. I'll see how confident I feel after that and if everything looks great, then I'm probably going to announce it. If I have any misgivings, then we will announce at 12 weeks. We did already tell immediate family and our closest friends. They would have figured it out really quickly since we are pretty socially active and I'm not drinking at all. It has been so much fun telling people though! Even friends I was worried wouldn't be excited got teary and are so happy for us. Its also so nice to make our parents so happy. I don't think they've ever been this excited about anything!
I also decided that even if something awful happens instead of hiding our loss and sadness it would be better to have the support of our loved ones. There shouldn't be any guilt or feelings of failure.

I'm having a really hard time not announcing it because I'm SOOOO sick. I've been telling everyone I have the flu and I don't think they've caught on yet.

New London - The city's Board of Ethics may decide to conduct its own investigation into alleged ethics violations by City Councilor Michael Buscetto III, but it closed its doors to the public Wednesday night before making any decision.
Five members of the seven-member board voted to go into executive session to review its "authority and responsibilities ... to investigate claims of unethical behavior against a sitting member of the council.''
Chairman K. Robert Lewis said the board can discuss "issues involving the code of ethics'' in closed session.
The Day objected to the closed-door portion of the meeting, saying the item was a matter of policy and not protected under the state Freedom of Information Act.
For several minutes before the doors were closed, Lewis reviewed an email he sent to city councilors Aug. 26 in which he stated he believed the council could not investigate itself and that the ethics panel should look into the allegations leveled against Buscetto by Police Chief Margaret Ackley.
Mayor Martin Olsen said he was asked informally by the City Council to attend the ethics board meeting. He told them that the council voted late Tuesday to create a three-member subcommittee to review a list of possible investigators to look into Ackley's claims. The committee is Adam Sprecace, Wade Hyslop and Michael Passero.
The City Council met in closed session Aug. 24 to discuss a list of complaints by Ackley, who said during a public meeting that Buscetto was interfering with the police department, undermining her authority and creating a hostile work environment.
City Law Director Thomas Londregan would not release Ackley's list, saying it pertained to "strategy and negotiations with respect to pending claims or pending litigation.'' The Day has requested a copy of the list, believing it to be a public document.
Last week Ackley also confirmed that she filed a complaint with the ethics board against Buscetto, but she would not say what it was about.
In open session Wednesday, the ethics board also talked about asking for a copy of Ackley's list and possibly sharing the City Council's investigator. There was also a question of how the board, which has no budget, could pay a private investigator.
At least two members of the board questioned why the public was allowed into any portion of the meeting,
"My concern, and my history with the ethics board during 25 to 30 years, is we've never had public sessions,'' said Eunice Waller, a former mayor who, at the Tuesday night council meeting, supported the chief and called on city councilors to ask Ackley not to retire.
Board member Sheila McCarthy also questioned why the public was allowed into a portion of the meeting.
According the city's Code of Ethics, the board has five days to respond to a complaint. If the board accepts the complaint, it has 90 days to investigate and evaluate the merits of the complaint. If probable cause is found, the board has five to 14 days to make it public. A hearing must be set up within 90 days and the board has 30 days to deliberate on a code violation.
According the code, which was amended in May, "the complaint and all information supplied to or received from the Board during the evaluation or investigation shall remain confidential."

Though they didn't end on the best of terms, Tommy Mottola still writes fondly of Michael Jackson in his new memoir. Even so, the former Sony Music CEO doesn't shy away from the reality that the late King of Pop was not into reality checks, specifically when it came to his declining music sales. In the excerpt below, Mottola reflects on the time he had to pull the budget from "Invincible" due to the album's poor performance.

Eugene / Office
When it comes to spending long days in the office, flexibility is key. If you're stuck in the same position for hours on end, you'll experience cramps, back pain, and fatigue. Whether you're a University of Oregon student or a young working professional of Eugene, you want to ensure that your daily routine doesn't hurt your health. Fortunately for you, Relax The Back is here with a solution! Our ergonomic office chairs, desks, and more make it easy to upgrade your office workstation to one that will help you get the most out of your day. If you want to add comfort to your workday, there's only one thing to do: invest in an ergonomic office.
Read more.
Pain Be GoneRecent studies have shown that the average American spends almost 56 hours a week sitting. If you fit in that category, you probably suffer from back pain and cramps as a result. The body isn't made to stay in a sitting position for that long. Prolonged sitting places pressure on the spine that restricts blood flow. This pressure and lowered blood flow then can cause debilitating aches and pains in other parts of your body, from the neck and shoulders all the way to your legs and feet. Ergonomic workstations nourish the spine, conforming gently to its shape and preventing undue stress to the vertebrae. With less aches and pain, you'll find yourself enjoying happier and more productive days almost immediately!
Our Favorite TipsOur product consultants are well-versed in the latest ergonomic office essentials and would love to help you find your perfect matches. Here are some of their favorite tips to help you experience a more productive and comfortable day:
• Stand Up to Stretch Every 30 Minutes – The human body doesn't perform very well when it's stuck in a chair for long durations, so standing up to stretch or walk helps to relieve tension and prevent muscle aches. Standing desks make it easy to avoid prolonged sitting by working from a standing position — you'll be amazed at how big of a difference it makes to your overall alertness and energy levels!
• Invest in a Great Chair – Sitting is unavoidable, but even shorter durations of sitting in an uncomfortable chair can cause lasting pain and make it harder to stay positive while you work. Ergonomic office chairs that promote healthy posture prevent many of the aches and pains associated with sitting while making for a more enjoyable and comfortable experience.
• Position Your Computer Monitor at Eye Level – This is especially important if you work from a laptop: looking up, down, or sideways to view your computer monitor often strains your neck and shoulder muscles.

I know theres a thousand threads about pedals so it will be short and quick. Anyone got a pic then can post up of how the loop is mounted for a strap? I have a general idea but would like to know for sure.
I know theres a thousand threads about pedals so it will be short and quick. Anyone got a pic then can post up of how the loop is mounted for a strap? I have a general idea but would like to know for sure.
I don't have a pic, but I can tell you how to do it. I've been riding cages and straps and am starting to switch to SPD-R, and I just don't feel right without a strap. A couple of the local top level sprinters have that setup and I looked at their pedals before I decided to switch to SPD-R. I haven't put them together yet, so I can't send a picture.
1) get some old steel cages and cut the loop for the strap off, leaving a tab of non-looped part about 1 cm long.
2) drill a hole in the non-looped bit that's big enough for the tension setting screw from the pedals.
3) unscrew the tension setting screw all the way out, and insert the piece from the toe clip so that it's between the screw head and the outermost bottom part of the pedal.
4) when you screw it back together, make sure both springs are engaged properly (only do one pedal at a time, so you can refer to the other to see how they engage) and that the tension indicator is centered in the little window. The indicator tends to start off center when you reassemble them, and sometimes you have to push it with a hex key.
5) When the pedal is back together you can put a strap through the loop and use it to tie yourself in.
Check the steel loop periodically to see that it's not getting weakened from getting flexed.
I've also seen the top guys ride SPD-Rs at World Cup without the strap-- once they're aligned well I think you can get them pretty tight, but I don't have enough experience with them yet so I plan to do the strap thing.
Bitingduck (nice name, by the way) has the best way of doing it if you really, really want straps. A couple minor additions:
1. By cages, I think he means toe clips.
2. You can use double straps by putting two of these toe clip cutoffs on each pedal, one pointing forward and one backward, or even better, both pointing the same way and one longer than the other. Either way, rivet them together with a couple pop rivets and you'll significantly reduce metal fatigue.
3. All that being said, the only real point of a toe strap on SPD-R's is to keep your foot from lifting out IF you rotate far enough around to release the cleat. Anything less than a full lift-out and you'll snap right back in and never notice it. It isn't like with 7400's or similar pedals where you have to keep your foot forced down with the pedal jammed up into the slot of the cleat or bad accidents happen.
4. You can tighten up SPD-R tension so that they hold the shoes so tight, it's almost easier to slip your feet into the shoes and leave the shoes on the bike (a la Jerry Ash, Anton Tkac, and other riders of the '80s). Tightened up a bit, I still use straps but don't feel I really need to.
5. If you use zero-float cleats, they stick in a good bit better than floating cleats, reducing the need for a toe strap.
6. Some riders need the strap forward of the tension adjustment screw, others need it in back. Just find a position that holds your foot and doesn't create pain on the top of your foot or lies over a shoe buckle or whatever. It takes a bit of experimenting to get the best position.
here os a pic of a different setup for you...
I once tried tapping holes and mounting them as shown above, but the screws need to be very small and very short or you run into the axle unit inside. The metal does tend to twist around the small screws and either break screws or enlarge the holes so it pulls free. However, it is very elegant and addresses the issue of the toe clip end rotating around the single screw of the tension adjuster -- not an issue once your foot is in the pedal, but a bit of a pain when you're trying to get your feet into the straps in a hurry.
Here's a simpler variant on what Tomity came up with above: There's about a centimeter width of the center axle that accommodates a strip of stainless steel wrapped around it. I used 3/8 x 1/16" thick stainless strip from a craft shop, wrapped it around the axle part of the pedal frame, and pop-riveted it with a stainless pop rivet with the cut-off end of the toe clip in between. It doesn't have to be particularly tight, because the strap ends up bearing directly on the pedal frame anyway. The 1/16" thick strip doesn't stick up above the rubber pads on the pedals, so it never interferes with cleat engagement.
By the way, use steel toe clips, not aluminum ones. The aluminum ones work harden very fast and break in a matter of a few days.
I took another look at the pedal on Tomity's setup. Sure looks like an SPD-SL to me. You can just barely see the rear cleat engagement clip, and it's an SPD-SL clip, not the spring assembly you'd expect to see for an SPD-R, and you don't see the bolt for the axle assembly on the underside. Not necessarily a bad idea, and no different from what one would do on an SPD-R, but I don't think it's actually an SPD-R pedal.
I haven't seen anybody with double straps on their SPD-Rs-- that's like a belt, suspenders, *and* duct tape. If it makes you feel safer it's a good thing though.
I like your point number 4-- It hadn't really occurred to me to do that, but it's not a bad idea.
That's a really nice setup that Jamtastic has, but I'm too lazy to take apart a pedal spindle to drill and thread it, and would be squeamish about leaving shavings in if I didn't take it all the way apart.
The handle comes from a mean pet duck I had (eventually a raccoon got him, which was sad). He really hated me, and would clamp onto exposed skin really hard. You wouldn't think a duck could bite (or hold a grudge, but they can), but try having an 8 lb duck clamped onto your arm while you lift it up. He could even tell sleeves from skin, and wouldn't bother on long sleeves. I have a webcam setup so I can look at them when I'm not home. It's at http://bitingduck.com/webcam.html . I use the handle because it's easy to remember and not likely to be already taken.
I used to ride in Texas and had this flock of ducks mixed with a few Canadian geese that always crowded on the road on the route back to my house. If you rode through at a slow pace, they'd bite your legs. If you rode fast, you had a couple of them peck at your wheels and bring you down (them too, but at that point I didn't care). Texas was a dangerous place to ride. Lots of ranch dogs, and then there was this bull out west of Austin that would escape across a cattle guard and chase you uphill. He was pretty damned fast for a bull.
The point of double straps on SPD-R's isn't so much to give additional security, as to improve comfort for those who can't quite get it with a single strap (i.e., one strap is painful on the top of the foot). I was just at the Los Angeles world cup and saw a lot of SPD-R pedals in use in sprint and kilo events. About a third used no straps, a third used one strap, and a third used two. Go figure.
When I was in Minnesota we had a flock of geese that we always went through, but the biggest hazard they gave us was the droppings.
I was making copies on the infield so I didn't get a chance to check out the sprint stuff too much. The sprint events have a lot more results and start lists so we were busier for those and didn't get to see as much. I saw Jamie look like he was losing control of the bike coming down the home stretch in the sprint, disappear behind the officials stand, and come out the other side sliding. I missed the nose wheelie from where I was. The endurance events were like a break.
isnt easier put a time pedal instead of those shimano ones? Time pedal at least that i know of, they do not snap or anything. I been using them for years even with crappy cleats and no problems... Well for sure the reason to use shiano is because they are NJS certif???
I prefer the 7400 over the spd. In the dirt I stop using the spd and switched to Time. I have a shelf full of spd pedals from bmx, road, mtb. I still have a toe clip set up but the straps always dig into my foot when they are tighten so they sit on the shelf also.
We don't have loose bulls around here but we have SUV's. We also have mountain lions here where I live and there are very real not urban legends.
This modification does not meet NJS standards anyway, and SPD-R's aren't NJS certified to begin with. The issue is to keep your cleat in the pedal and while Times are nice, they don't have the level of retention needed for hard sprints, kilos, etc. I've seen both Times and Looks modified with either a screw-in locking bolt on the side or a wing nut or equivalent on the rear which essentially takes the spring mechanism out of play -- it simply locks the cleat in the pedal with no possibility of release. That's one way to use these kinds of pedals. However, note that one of the appeals of SPD-R's is that the cleats are all metal. While traditional Look fixed cleats have more plastic and stand up reasonably well in pursuit, madison, etc., the floating ones have had an unpleasant incidence of breaking out the plastic and coming loose (permanently) in hard efforts. European pro six-day riders have had occasional trouble with Time Impact cleats, mostly because the mechanism at the back would simply break, and I don't know of any who ride Speedplays because you simply can't crank them down hard enough (and the track version tends to pop out more unexpectedly but still pops out). However, most pedal customizations like we're talking about here are for the timed events -- sprint, kilo, and team sprint. Other applications can get by with most pedals in most circumstances. For those, an unmodified SPD-R is popular simply because it's aero, and the aero characteristics are easily enhanced with some shrink plastic window wrap applied to the underside.
In the Men's sprint in LA, there was only 1 athlete that I can find that did not use straps.
I did not see the mens Kilo, so do not know how many used straps there.
In the team pursuit there were quite a few who did not use straps.
At the world level, it's quite unusual in match sprints not to use straps, and either 7400's or SPD-R's rule the day. Pretty much the same for team sprints. In kilos, about two-thirds of the riders use straps, and SPD-R's are particularly popular for their aero design. In pursuit (both individual and team), toe straps are quite in the minority. At the LA World Cup, a couple of us were right at the finish line and while riders were setting up, were photographing bar setups, pedal setups, and anything out of the ordinary. We got images of every rider in the kilo, team sprint, match sprint, and pursuit (at least on our side of the track), and the images confirm these observations. The Brits weren't in evidence at the event (except for Jamie, who didn't last long), and they tend more to no straps or single straps, in either case on SPD-R's. Again, pedal and strap usage are a different game on the massed start events -- kilo, match sprint, and team sprint have practices unique to their disciplines.
Yeah, I was on the track shooting for the sprints..
I just looked through the pix to try to clarify on your percentages that you mentioned regarding straps and no straps..not trying to say that you were wrong, just pointing out that all except 1 rider in the sprints was strapped in, and that straps were less evident in the longer rides...as would be expected(except for the people in the team sprints were having to do the standing start out of the gates)
I actually shot the pedal setups of the semi-finalists in the mens match sprints, since pedal choice is often a topic of discussion here and at Fixedgearfever.
EDIT: These shots are the pedals of the American Blatchie, and the French dude who won the whole thing. Blatchie is the one with the SRM

The picture i posted is what i somehow intend to do though i too am worried about drilling to deep. Tommity has it done. They are indeed spd-l . maybe he got confused when using model spd-r540 or something. I am going to get it disaaembled at the lbs and drilled to their specs at a machine shop. hopefully then it will be precisely drilled and threaded perfect. we will see.
U dont have the tools at home to desaseemble the pedals? why pay for that? i mean im assuming u dont work in a lbs..
i do have the tools. but i need their advice on how far is safe to drill. I need to buy a calibrator. anyone know where a cheap one is.
I'm surprised they're not through holes-- since you're not going to use them in the rain you can probably do through holes (all the way to the spindle space) and then use threadlock to seal it. I can't imagine it's thick enough to get all that many threads, and with a blind hole you can't thread to the bottom, so it could be hard to get the screws to stay tight.
If you're doing blind holes and have a friend with a milling machine it's pretty straightforward to get precise depths-- you move the table up rather than the head down, and most have pretty precise control over the table motion.
One other point regarding straps-- if you break a strap it counts as a recognized mishap, and you're more likely to get a restart under some circumstances. Sometimes it doesn't matter if it's a recognized/unrecognized mishap, but it's extra insurance. Coming out of your clipless pedals is more likely to be an unrecognized mishap and sometimes won't get you a restart.
And you're right (11.4) about two straps being more comfortable. I use doubles on my clip/strap combination, and it's way more comfortable than singles. It never struck me to do it on the clipless.
I worked starting gates/holding at Nats this year, and though I didn't really keep track, almost everyone doing the team sprint had at least one strap, and quite a few were using a regular clip/double strap combination.
That is an SL pedal. Cool idea thogh. Im going to look into that. finding screws wont be hard either since that part of the axle isnt very thick and the alum body is pretty thick. Trouble is that doesnt address what the point of the strap is for. I assume it was used origionaly to make sure you couldnt force the clasp open.Originally Posted by Jamtastic
At this point, compared the SPD-SL approach above, with a Look or similar-to-Look pedal there are simpler and stronger solutions: First, you can have a threaded-in allen bolt that runs from the outside frame into the central clip assembly that holds the cleat (the black part in the rear that's spring loaded). Use an allen-headed screwdriver and tighten it in seconds, and it is simply and irrevocably locked -- you can't get out without the allen screwdriver unless you step out of your shoes. Second, you can also remove the tension adjuster, and you'll find a nice little flange inside tailor made for the head of a bolt. With the head of the bolt sticking through the hole in the back center of the clip assembly (that black part at the rear again), just put on a wing nut and crank it tight. It helps to keep the bolt from rotating by snagging it in place with a nut and a lockwasher clamping it to the little flange inside.
I saw those modified pedals on Olympic bikes. Pretty balllsy! I still think a strap is a better safeguard since you can still break a shoe cleat. I cracked on this summer and thanked god I noticed it because the next day I was going to the track. Who knows if it would have let go or not, but it would have sucked!

Both are older shimano clip and strap pedals minus the steel cage. I have 3 pairs in my box or junk at work. Finding the shoe cleats is hard these days. Any shoe with a look pattern worksOriginally Posted by brooklyn

I just stumbled in an oddity with the find command on Linux, in a nutshell I had the need to find all files smaller than 2Kb in a certain folder, so I issued the command:
find /folder_to_search_into/ -type f -size -2k
which according to the man page of find should return everything smaller than 2Kilobytes
But what I noticed is that it missed a number of files, which were between 1 and 2Kb in size.
I then issued
find /folder_to_search_into/ -type f -size -2048c
which should be the exact equivalent since "c" stands for bytes, and in this case it found all the files I was looking for.
Any idea as of why this behavior? I'm probably missing the obvious here. Not sure if it's related to this note (from the find man page -- in the size section):
The size does not count indirect blocks, but it does count blocks in sparse files that are not actually allocated. Bear in mind that the '%k' and '%b' format specifiers of -printf handle sparse files differently. The 'b' suffix always denotes 512-byte blocks and never 1 Kilobyte blocks, which is different to the behavior of -ls.

Dist. 54 Business Manager Brings Experience to New Job
Culloton, Dan, Daily Herald (Arlington Heights, IL)
Byline: Dan Culloton Daily Herald Staff Writer
Schaumburg Township Elementary District 54 gets a lot of resumes from employees of smaller districts who are eager to ascend the career ladder.
That's why M. Mohsin Dada's application leapt to the top of the pile when the state's largest elementary district began looking for a new assistant superintendent for business services in February.
Dada, 43, is no neophyte.
Now the business manager for Naperville Unit District 203, Dada has 17 years of experience at large school districts.
That's one reason District 54's school board hired Dada last week.
Dada replaces Matt Corby, who left District 54 in February to become an associate superintendent at Rockford Unit District 205.
"To have a candidate that came to us from a larger district was actually refreshing and unusual," said District 54 Associate Superintendent Ken Cull.
Dada will take a pay cut from $90,690 to $83,000 to move from the larger Naperville unit district to Schaumburg. He was attracted to District 54's "positive work environment," he said. …

Amos Lee is apparently a talented guitarist as well as a singer/songwriter. His band was excellent--each performer played several instruments, except for the bass player--all extraordinary musicians. And then there's that other guy... Tuli?
I used to think of Amos as a folk singer, but his range of genre's included gospel, country (loved the slide guitar), rock, and blues.
I only bought tickets to take a friend for his birthday, but found the show really entertaining as well as diverse; a pendulum from sad and low to caramel sensual to get-up-and-dance to Jesus.
And I loved the area rugs. A nice touch.
About the Ticket Supplier: Warner Theatre
The Warner's special place in the history of Washington began in the 1920s when dozens of grand theaters and moviehouses lit up downtown. Built first for vaudeville and silent movies, the Theatre was opened as the Earle Theatre in 1924.
The Earle switched to a movies-only policy in 1945 and in 1947, owner Harry Warner, one of the Hollywood's Warner Brothers, visited Washington and told his tour guide Julian Brylawski (one of the original builders) that since he owned the theatre, his name should be on the marquee. Thus the Earle Theatre became the Warner Theatre.

Shouldn't Supergirl be Barbra's age?
I would swear Dick was at least older than Barbara if not the same age.
I wish she was
Are you gonna do like a teen titans bit?
You mentioned the League and the Society. As well as the legion of Doom in the Picnic comics. So I'm just kind of been waiting for like a Titans Comic.
One day.
you need to do one where they all somehow get sent to the future and Dick is batman and is raising Damian and Tim is all serious and somewhat brooding and Jason is well Jason. And Batman is freaking out because his babies are all grown up and completly different! (well execpt for Dick, he never really changes)
Dick & Barbs forever!
Probably one of my favourite pages just 'cause it has Blue Beetle, Booster Gold, JLI and Hawk and Dove in it...though you can only see Don's feet in one panel
I wondered where Babs was in these
ha ha! Called it XD
Barbara?! What are you doing out of the wheelchair?!

He's into mature women? Kinky ;3
Wait, if shes a Bat, then why isnt she at Wayne Manor?
I'm guessing that it's probably because she still has a dad.
Ah, but tim is not an orphan. He became Robin to give Batman hope after Jason died
Then he later became an orphan.
the fate of all the robins~
Except Damian.
um, all of Bruce's Robins????
Although~ Bruce and Talia have to die sometime right???? xD

Booster Gold looks like he's gonna beat up Blue Beetle for his lunch money XD
In another universe, he was older than her. Sigh good times. Good times.

Now is the time when people come up with their master plans for what will and won't fix the team of their choosing. Of course, for me, that is the Twins, so I pay close attention to what everyone else has to say. I don't have any free agent optimism, but everyone from Parker Hageman to Phil Mackey do. And they all believe that Shaun Marcum, formerly of the Blue Jays and Brewers, belongs in a Twins uniform. The Twins never do what people expect them to do so it probably won't happen, but since Shaun Marcum is showing up in every Twins offseason preview I see, I figure it's time to do a little due diligence.
Pro: Should come cheaply, as he is coming off injury!
Con: EVERYONE seems to want him, so he won't be cheap!
Other Con: He'll probably need Tommy John surgery. Or would, if he comes to Minnesota.
Pro: High strikeout rate!
Con: Doesn't pitch to contact
Pro: Manly beard
Con: Doesn't smile quite hard enough.
Con: Not an ace pitcher
Pro: Fits right in!
Con: Not much of a ground baller
Pro: The Twins have an awesome outfield defense!
Con: All of the plans revolve around trading Denard Span too.
So now we know what to expect if the Twins add Shaun Marcum. If it happens.

Tonight marks the beginning of the World Cup group stages for three-time champions Germany, or more specifically West Germany, who have also reached 4 other final appearances. Meanwhile their opponents in Salvador this evening, Portugal, haven't managed to better their third place finish back in 1966.
It's widely expected that their star man Cristiano Ronaldo, of Real Madrid fame, will start the game after some injury concerns coming into the tournament. He did limp off on Thursday's training session and it was suspected that his reoccurring knee problems had returned. On the flip side Germany have some concerns over their talisman midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger. He was airlifted to hospital on Saturday but is expected to be within their starting eleven as the trip was for 'check-up' purposes only.
Germany got through their warm up's pretty easily but only managed a draw with Cameroon on 1st June. Expectations are high and a place in the last four is likely to be the minimum requirement from Joachim Low's squad. They completed their qualification campaign unbeaten but some concerns remain over their ability in the final third. Marco Reus, one of only two real centre forwards in their squad, has been removed due to injury leaving Miroslav Klose as their only option of an out-an-out striker. Their strength in depth from midfield though is of legendary proportions; with Matthias Ginter, Christoph Kramer and Julian Draxler all looking to stake a claim on the tournament from the substitute's bench (and all more than capable).
Portugal also had some successful friendlies ahead of the tournament and registered wins over the Republic of Ireland and World Cup hopefuls Mexico. This came of the back of a rocky qualification campaign where it took an invigorated Ronaldo to get them through a tough play-off with Sweden. Portugal cannot rely on their talisman alone, especially if this injury of his returns, and they already have a tricky group to navigate. Paulo Bento's side are as unpredictable as they are talented; able to win or lose against any opponents on any given day. Joan Moutinho, Pepe and Raul Meireles carry plenty of experience in the squad but with nine players in their thirties and an average age of 28.5 we could see them struggle in the Brazilian humidity.
Come join us just before 5:00pm (GMT) for what is sure to be a fantastic encounter between these European powerhouses.

Madison St.). Found in the bulk department, it comes in six flavors, Che Guevara, Chief Sealth, Mahatma Gahndi, Emma Goldman, Miles Davis (decaf) and the quintessential gentleman-dandy himself, Crisp. "Floral aroma, medium body, bright flavor and sweet berry notes," reads the description. (Mr. Crisp might have taken issue with beating around that coffee bush.) Tony's Coffee roasts the beans for each of the blends, developed in conjunction with the co-op, and the beans cost $10.39/pound.

Pay cuts and demotions. They're measures taken by one Community College in the east to avoid job cuts.
Craven Community College in New Bern will implement this reorganization plan in July.
The plan calls for about 20 to 25 positions to be rewritten and revised under the Schools President Doctor Katherine Chew.
She said the plan helps to keep the school from cutting jobs altogether. Several employees who spoke to WITN off camera today say they believe their being treated unfairly.
But with enrollment up because of the number of people out of work, Chew says it's important to keep the future of students in mind.
The more than 20 positions being revised include both faculty and administrators.

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Omra Elias
by Tessparker
Review: Delicious, well prepared, healthy food in a beautiful setting with prompt [considering the preparation time required for the dishes they serve] and pleasant service. Had an amazing meal for 2 hungry people for about 25 euros. Everything we had was great: quinoa with grilled veg, stuffed mushrooms, beetroot\tofu salad, and the cauliflower tapioca dish with potatoes was particularly good. They also have a great drink menu which includes lots of teas, kombucha, gingerade, and juices. We'll be going back tomorrow to try their raw cakes!

Baby won't take bottle.
My daughter's 3 mo. old baby refuses to take a bottle. They have tried all different bottles and nipples, but still she only wants breastfed.

I'm having the same problem. Does anyone have any ideas? I need to go back to work soon and I'm really concerned.posted 11/27/2007 by dibba14
I'm having the smae problem with my 11 month old! He screams bloody murder until I breastfeed him. However, i almost had him weaned completely about a month ago when my sister-in-law bought him the Nuby Stages Bottle- it comes with a breastlike nipple (complete with little bumps all around it like a real areola), soft sippy cup shaped nipple, and then a straw-like nipple so they learn in stages. My son DID take this bottle (1st one ever!) and I had him down to one breastfeeding per day, but then he got really sick (104.9 fever) and refused anything but breastfeeding for 6 days- we're back to the start but that bottle is my only chance! At least he'll take it like once a day :( :)posted 01/23/2008 by skylavaulter
Finally got the bottle to work! I too am a mom that has to get back to work and I was getting very nervous that my breastfed infant would not accept the bottle. After several frustrating weeks, experimenting with every trick in the book, and spending money on every bottle and nipple at Babies R Us, our nanny finally found the solution. She bought a three pack of Gerber First Essentials, which have extraordinarily small latex nipples - the best part is that they're 3 for $4 at Walmart! She took it immediately, without a fuss and without gagging. I think the small nipple is the reason why. So far, this is the third day and we've remained lucky. Feeling much more at ease with work and an overnight trip coming soon. Hope this post helps the other stressed out moms.posted 06/30/2012 by jilloftrades
My son, who is 7 months old, will not take a bottle. So when he was about 6 months old I started letting him drink from a cup. It works great! He actually likes the formula. He just didn't like the delivery method. I still bf him some, but when he's seated for a meal in his high chair I give him formula from a cup. I think maybe he likes taking it that way too because he sees us drinking from cups. I realize this may not work for a younger baby, but it sure has worked for us at this age.posted 01/29/2008 by vboo2
My daughter went through the same thing. She's 6 months now and loves sippy cups. We skipped right over the bottle. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Now I only have to wean her off the breast, not the breast and the bottle. Try the Nuk brand sippy cup. They have a latex spout and are a great transition.posted 03/15/2008 by catsandio
just got my 3 1/2m old breastfed baby to take a bottle for the first time after 1 week of trying. playtex orthodontic nipple- latex not silicone (medium flow as he is >3m) and sitting in bouncy on vibrate distracted by the TV (yes I know dreadful parenting but it worked) with me sitting behind him. now drinking 5oz bottles of breastmilk like a champ and smoothly goes between breast and bottle. basically tried every nipple on the market and this is what worked for us. I also didn't leave him until he was too hungry either (as that would be another reason to demand the breast- for comfort). good luck moms, hope this helps.posted 02/13/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
We thought our son was good w/the bottle, but I go back to work in a week & he was suddenly refusing the bottle. Our ped. gave us 2 suggestions after checking our baby to be sure he was healthy (weight/illness/etc). Since I would only be missing 2 feedings a day, we could start him on rice cereal during the day & continue to breastfeed (offering extra feedings). Or I could go cold turkey & refuse to breastfeed until he was established on the bottle (making sure to pump). The Ped. said my son could go up to 24 hours without eating/drinking & he'd be fine. In his experience, babies are usually taking the bottle within that time period. He said to continue him on the bottle only for a couple of days to be sure we were established, then go back to breastfeeding. The first time, I gave in after an hour of trying. But for the next feeding I was determined & he finally took the bottle. Have your baby checked out & ask your ped. if cold turkey would be an option for you. GOOD LUCK!!!posted 08/21/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
My 3 months old did the same. Refused to take a bottle. I even kept her hungry before giving her a bottle, but she cried even more. Try a latex nipple or try upgrading your silicone ones. Dont use the new born nipple. You could even try a nipple shield by putting it on your own breast and then offering a bottle. This way the baby would feel that s/he would be getting the same nipple from both ends.posted 07/04/2014 by shahzadanum
My exclusively breastfed 4-month-old daughter took the bottle just fine a few times here and there and when I started working my 12 hour shift one day a week the first day was rough for my husband but the next 4-5 times I worked she took the bottle perfectly for him all day. Then all of a sudden she refused the bottle all day and he had to bring her to work on my break for me to feed her. The doctor he spoke with said not to worry unless she didn't have a wet diaper in six hours. I looked up all kinds of things and on the llli.org site read about changing the temperature of the nippe by putting the nipple in the refrigerator or warming it. My husband ran the nipple under warm water and she took it immediately. It could have been her finally giving in, but she was refusing it up until the nipple was warmed. Hope this helps!posted 08/04/2013 by andriachristine

I just got home from the Dr. and my OB said my belly is measuring a bit over schedule so she wants to do an ultrasound within the week to make sure baby and fluid looks good. She said that most times it's not a big deal and baby is a normal weight but it's good to take a look at him. She said to schedule it for a time my husband can come in and we'll take a bunch of pictures. Does she want my husband there for a reason other than so he can see the babe and take some sweet pics?? He's mad she didn't tell me more and now I'm just upset. Has anyone else experienced this and should I be that worried?
Belly measuring big...Worried:(
Don't stress...fundal heights are not a science(and are easily effected) and size ultrasounds and notoriously off. Personally, I wouldn't go for the u/s.
DD (7), DS (4), DS #2 arrived 5/21/12!
Thank you guys for your comments I'm 28 weeks 6 days along and this is my second baby. I honestly can't remember if my Dr. said I was measuring half a centimeter bigger or just a centimeter bigger. Never had problems before this and I don't have gest. diabetes. I do think my Dr. was saying to have my hubby come in to see the baby on the u/s....but who knows. I have one scheduled for Monday.
With my first child I consistently measured 3 weeks ahead of my dates, and also had an U/S to confirm that everything was okay. My son was born at 38 wks 4 days and weighed 6.5. The U/S is just precautionary, and I would be more concerned if your OB hadn't ordered one--just good practice. Estimated weights on U/S can be off 1lb either way too. In medical terms, 2.5 cm = 1 inch, so whether you measured 5. or 1 cm larger, it doesn't sound to me like you're measuring that big anyway.
Best of luck to you!
Normally...2cm off in either direction is considered "normal" so you are right on. Might want to be asking questions. I just don't get why an u/s would be ordered when you are in "normal" range and things as simple as baby's position can affect FHs by 2-5cm.
Thank you reddicksarah. I definately will be asking some questions. This is all information that I didn't know. My first pregnancy was a breeze so encountering things this pregnancy feels so foreign.
If the doctor receommends the ultrasound I say go for it. My son measured 3 weeks ahead and now I am measuring 3 weeks ahead with this baby. I'm not having an ultrasound this time around as I'm not concerned with how big she will get becasue I'm having a C-Section. jlr1220 is correct in that the ultrasound weight is only accurate within 1 lb. When I had my last ultrasound he was measuring 7lbs 11 oz and 5 weeks later when he was born he was 8lbs 13oz. He didn't end up being gargantuant, but he was pretty big for me at 5'3"!!!
Good luck, try not to worry and enjoy the pics of your baby. he or she will be here before your know it :)
Our OB tells us when DH should show up for an appointment so he doesn't miss the really fun stuff (like seeing the baby). He doesn't come to the routine/pee in a cup appointments, so she knows to tell us when it's more than that. Again good to ask tho :)
- Susan
MOB - Arlan (8/06), Corban (6/09), and Baby Boy (Due 5/12)
Its always nice to have an US for precautions. But I wouldn't be concerned about it. My son was said to be 8 lbs at 38 weeks. When he was born at 39 weeks he was only 6.3oz.
I heard from many people the same story.

A Visit To Nicholas Pools
The weather this weekend had us all ready for a great summer, and that means some pool fun!
The weather this weekend had us all ready for a great summer, and that means some pool fun!
When Nicholas Pools "hired" me to help their awesome crew to do an amazing cleaning job to bring a customer's pool back to life after Sandy, one thing I knew for sure was that they didn't really need my help...
Not only was I hired for a Jersey Shore's Toughest Job by Nicholas Pools, but I was RE-hired. This was a special one, as I "helped" Nicholas Pools help someone who's pool was devastated by Hurricane Sandy.
I spent some time Saturday at Nicholas Pools in Toms River for their Customer Appreciation Days and lots of people were coming in for supplies and advice. It's pool opening season!
I got the call from Nicholas Pools in Toms River to see if I wanted to work with them, helping to provide pool cleanings with their "Pool Butler" service. Of course, I said I'd love to, and made my way over there to find out how I could "help".

The construction of these paintings is a development from his works of the mid-thirties in which Nicholson allowed the forms of earlier paintings to penetrate later reworkings. The surface has been rubbed down repeatedly and, in common with many other such works of the period, is smooth. The colour is applied both relatively freely in thin washes and precisely and opaquely. Nicholson received the Ulisse Award at the Venice Biennale later in 1954.

The Fare: Gourmet ice pops.
The Stop: As I drive past The Canal in Ballard, my wandering eyes spot an earnest-looking dude holding up a popsicle with one hand while resting his other hand on a large cooler. What the heck. I pull over to see what's up.
What's up is Will Lemke and his wife Vanessa Resler's new gourmet popsicle cart business. If the couple's one-month business isn't emblematic of Seattle, I don't know what is. In addition to pedaling their popsicle cart on two wheels, they get a kick out of sourcing locally, and their flavors are inspired by the bounties of the Pacific NW. Lemke even sources Rainier cherries from a high school friend's cherry orchard.
Lemke is lactose intolerant and his wife is allergic to most nuts, so all of their pops are vegan, dairy free and nut free (with the exception to the PB & J).
As head chef, Lemke excitedly tests out his concoctions like a mad scientist. Cooking in the commissary kitchen at The Canal, Six Strawberries currently has 7 flavors and of course strawberry is one of them.
As a bona fide glutton, I decide to try one of each because more is always better. At 3 bucks a hit, every single one is more than delightful, but here are my favorites from best to almost the best:
• Strawberry Rhubarb: With bits of brown sugar crumble on the exterior, this is better than your mom's summer fruit pie; only, you don't even have to chew.
• Latte: Lemke always lamented at the lack of frozen coffee treat options for peeps who are lactose intolerant, so he is especially proud of this ice pop. He impeccably nails the taste as one virgin bite convinces me someone just froze my favorite latte. It is even creamy!
• Blueberry Lemonade: Refreshing, tangy, and emanating summer, this unadulterated pop has a beautiful deep purple lacquer shine and is my number one go-to after a sweaty bike ride.
• Strawberry: Tastes like strawberries. A winner.
• Fudge: Smooth and hearty, just what you would expect from a fudge pop.
How does the energetic chef get the pops to taste so good without adding dairy? He uses a silky, coconut-tofu base, and he is really that good. Lemke carefully selected the protein base from the International District's Northwest Tofu.
Look out for:
• New flavors. The popsicle chef is constantly experimenting with different flavor combinations. Next up: Thai iced tea
• Six Strawberries to ride into your neighborhood! The couple is still working on finalizing locations, but they will likely pedal to South Lake Union every Wednesday. Amazonians love their frozen treats! Give 'em a shout on Twitter and let them know where you want them to wheel.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee's Incumbent Protection Plan Pours Money in Mississippi
The NRSC is pouring more money into Mississippi's Republican Runoff to defeat Republican Chris McDaniel. It looks like they just dropped $175,000.00 on phone calls. Just remember all you people annoyed with robocalls that it is the NRSC doing it. Wonder how much the consultants are going to make on this. No one has a real idea of what is going to happen tomorrow between | Read More »
