Gary Rowley's beloved dog Brindle ran away in 1999, when he apparently used his snout to open a sliding glass door and escape.
Rowley thought he had lost Brindle forever, until a couple in Oklahoma contacted him through facebook. They said they found the dog hiding under a bush and after a local vet found a microchip in Brindle's neck, they tracked him down.
Brindle's years on the road have not been kind, he has heartworms, bad teeth and a dislocated hip.
No one knows how Brindle managed to get so far away from home, but now that he's back, Rowley says his number one priority is to keep him happy, comfortable and contained.

Ex-UNH coach charged with assault
DURHAM, N.H. Former University of New Hampshire womens hockey coach Brian McCloskey has been charged with assault in an encounter during a game last year.
The Strafford County Superior Court Clerks office says McCloskey is charged with putting his body on top of a players body and threatening her.
The 59-year-old McCloskey has said that during a Nov. 30 loss to Ohio State, he grabbed the back of a players jersey and helmet and reprimanded her for talking back. UNH fired McCloskey over it.
All the charges are misdemeanors punishable by up to a year in jail and a $2,000 fine.
McCloskey has been out on bail since June 6. He has denied wrongdoing and wants his job back.
A message seeking comment was left at a phone listed in McCloskeys name.MORE IN Sports WireThe 142nd Kentucky Derby is showing its age, in a gray kind of way.

Your car is the second most expensive purchase you're likely to make after your home. Now a new study from CarGurus.com shows that luxury cars are out and pickup trucks are in when it comes to holding resale value.
Among the losers in the resale value lottery were the following rides:
- 2010 BMW 3 Series
- 2012 Mercedes-Benz E Series
- 2008 Volvo XC90
- 2009 Audi A4
- 2009 Cadillac STS
- 2012 Cadillac SRX
Why would these vehicles in particular lose their value? Because with luxury cars, when you buy new, it's very easy to run up the price sky high. Take the BMW 3. You can buy an entry level model in the 3 series in the low 30s. (The average new car price in America today is right around $32,000). Or you can buy a 3 series that's $60,000 or more.
With a lot of luxury cars, people pile on the options. But the danger of that is if you dump that car during the first few years of ownership, the value has dropped like a rock because of depreciation and you have to eat that loss.
I think about how Tesla does business. You build the Tesla S online. There's no salesperson telling you about this or that gotta have feature. Yet someone can still easily double the price of the car by the time they're done with the options. (Click here to read why I decided to buy a Tesla S.)
So, if you like luxury cars and your money matters to you, be sure to buy them used. This is true for luxury cars more than any other kind of vehicle.
Now that you know what doesn't hold its resale value, what does hold value? The CarGurus.com survey says its mostly pickup trucks. All models listed below are 2012, unless otherwise indicated.
- Ram 1500
- Nissan Titan
- Dodge Charger
- Ford F-150
- Chevrolet Silverado 1500
- Jeep Liberty
- Ram 2500
- 2008 Dodge Ram 2500
- Jeep Wrangler
- Chevrolet Tahoe

Twenty-one-year-old United midfielder Jesse Lingard has impressed for Birmingham City since moving on loan in August, scoring six goals in 12 Championship appearances.
We hope they might be able to come back and help if we need it in January
England Under-21 international Nick Powell has scored five goals and made one assist for Wigan Athletic, whilst Ryan Tunnicliffe has been a regular for Ipswich Town.
And Moyes, who replaced Sir Alex Ferguson at the Old Trafford helm in the summer, revealed he is contemplating recalling the trio from the Championship next month.
"We will try [to do some business] in January," Moyes said.
"I am quite actively looking at our own boys. The likes of Jesse Lingard, Nick Powell and Ryan Tunnicliffe.
"They are the future. They are part of the club. They have been in the system. We hope they might be able to come back and help if we need it in January."

Not even the Broncos were immune to the effects of the massive amounts of rain being dumped on Colorado, as they were forced to practice on the auxiliary field turf field because the natural grass fields were flooded.
But according to offensive coordinator Adam Gase, the team — in particular, the offense — appeared none the worse for having to operate in wet field and steady rain conditions.
"I don't think it really bothered anybody," Gase said.
When the Broncos took the field middle linebacker Wesley Woodyard (ankle), a non-participant in Wednesday's drills, was back on the field on Thursday. He was a limited participant along with safety Omar Bolden (shoulder), wide receiver Trindon Holliday (knee), wide receiver Wes Welker (ankle), and offensive guard Chris Kuper (ankle). Wide receiver Eric Decker (shoulder) moved from the limited practice list to being a full participant on Thursday.
In fact, the only Broncos not practicing were cornerback Champ Bailey and tight end Joel Dreessen.
For Bailey, it's an ominous sign of his availability for Sunday's game at the New York Giants. He has not practiced since spraining his foot during the preseason, and he appears pointed toward another week of watching while he recovers.
Broncos coach John Fox did not elaborate on Bailey's condition, calling him "day-to-day" while adding "he'll be back (at some point)."
Meanwhile, quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Brock Osweiler took the opportunity with today's wet and cool weather to wear gloves during practice.
Fox approved, saying he "thought it was a good opportunity for the guys who handle the ball to be in those elements. Whether it's you're PAT/field goal operation or passing the football."

Belvedere Vodka Rings In The New Year Introducing Silver Saber For The Ultimate Nightlife Experience
NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Belvedere Vodka, the world's first super premium vodka, announces the launch of its first ever laser cut bottle with LED technology, the Belvedere Silver Saber. Just in time for New Year's Eve festivities, the Silver Saber will feature a special lighting element that will completely illuminate the Belvedere bottle. It will be showcased during a New Years Eve party with musician Robin Thicke at the SLS Hotel South Beach and at selected top nightlife venues in NYC and LA with a nationwide rollout planned for key nightlife venues in 2014.Following the successful launch of the Belvedere Night Saber, the latest evolution is the Silver Saber, a unique addition to Belvedere's award-winning collection of vodkas. The luminous Silver Saber Belvedere bottles will grab attention from all corners of a club, enhancing the visual experience of an ordinary night out. This innovative take on the typical bottle service ritual will be taking over Miami this New Year's Eve at The SLS Hotel's New Year's Eve bash with Robin Thicke. A total showstopper, the Silver Saber will not only be an outstanding visual element in nightclub settings but the perfect party item to ring in the New Year like a true star.The Silver Saber will be available in 1.75L bottles and in select markets this holiday season with the official launch in February 2014. The bottle is engineered to illuminate for over eight hours and is also waterproof so that it can be properly placed in an ice bucket. It will be available at major nightclubs and lounges that offer bottle service menus nationally. Throughout 2013 Belvedere Vodka was awarded 23 medals and trophies, including five gold medals for Belvedere Citrus, Belvedere Unfiltered and Belvedere Vodka plus an overall Master for Belvedere Unfiltered from the Vodka Masters. Currently, Belvedere Vodka is the most awarded vodka throughout the history of the Vodka Masters. Belvedere Vodka has also received two trophies from the International Spirits Challenge and seven gold medals from TheFiftyBest.com. ABOUT BELVEDERE VODKA First introduced to North America in 1996, Belvedere's distinctive character and uncompromising integrity are recognized internationally by discriminating vodka enthusiasts, who appreciate its all-natural, additive-free character. Made entirely from Dankowskie Rye and blended with water from its own pristine source, Belvedere Vodka's taste profile is distinctively soft with a subtle sweetness and naturally smooth, clean finish. In 2011, Belvedere Vodka partnered with (RED) ™ to launch BELVEDERE (PRODUCT) RED - a Special Edition Bottle that raises proceeds for the Global Fund, the world's leading financier of programs to fight HIV/AIDS in Africa. 50% of profits from the global sale of every (BELVEDERE) RED Special Edition bottle will be contributed to the Global Fund. The (BELVEDERE) RED Special Edition bottle delivers a clear, succinct message: Buy (BELVEDERE) RED, Give (BELVEDERE) RED, and with your purchase, generate funds which help fight AIDS and save lives. In 2012, Belvedere introduced Lemon Tea to its award-winning Maceration collection (Pink Grapefruit, Citrus, Orange, Black Raspberry, Bloody Mary). Lemon Tea is the second vodka made to a drink from Belvedere and is distilled with eight exceptional ingredients including black & green teas, ginger, chamomile, lemongrass, honey and lemon; resulting in a refreshing and vibrant vodka. A simple addition of iced tea or lemonade also turns a Belvedere Lemon Tea into a delectable cocktail for poolside lounging or beach party.

President Obama's recent speech at the United Nations had a troubling line in its text. The president said, "The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam." What does that mean? Why have many media outlets (Americanized version of Pravda and Izvestia) failed to report on that line? Does this mean, as Americans, we are surrendering, by proxy of Obama, our Constitutional right of freedom of speech or expression because of his dictum on Islam?
We have already seen the president's assault on our First Amendment religious freedoms in his health care legislation mandate on birth control … specifically the Catholic Church. Is his statement a precursor to another big-government effort chipping away at our rights? A proposed executive order to regulate the Internet for cyber-security (bypassing Congress once again) is close to completion according to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. The order would initially affect 16 critical classes of industry. Which classes? The number of classes could be countless.
Where is the transparency Obama bragged about in 2008? It may be hackneyed, but, "Wake up, America!" We are close to losing our right of free speech.

I was a runner through high school, college and my early 20's. I know it happens to me pretty easily. I got them so severely in high school one time that my coaches said no running...I wanted to just push through it.

Lots of BFP's!
Babies due July 1st-10th *282 BFPs*
Joanna (37) DH David (39)
DS Michael (05/06/96) DD Harleigh (11/14/10)
m/c November 2012 at 6 weeks
I'm so sorry JV :( Best wishes with whatever you may choose. Hugs.
AFM, still hanging out in limbo land with a now show of AF so far... Will wait until Sunday to test again if she hasn't shown.
Karyn (32) + DH (33), Secondary MFI + Chrons
Ellie 7.19.13, EP Gold; TTC 2, IVF +ICSI #1 June 2015, BFN, FET #1 8/25/15, BFP, beta 9-4-15: 62.3, beta 9-8-15: 297, beta 9-14-15: 2251
Jvenice- So sorry the hag showed:( GL for next cycle and sending you lots of baby dust so you get a blazing bfp.
Nik- not sure about the temp drop. I didn't hart long enough to know about it. I would post in the charters group to see what they think. Praying it doesn't mean anything and your temp stops dropping.
Bella- thanks Hun I will do for posting the next test.
Shannon- that is frustrating you had such bad power problems especially with LO's. hope that it get resolved quickly for you and that the rest of your day goes smoothly.
Cathy- yes my DH is one who needs it spelled out. He said well the second line should be as dark as the first then I'll believe it. So I guess he did see the line.
I am so mad at this test! I decided to use the FRER Gol digital and just my luck the test is a bust. I dipped it in and put the lid on it and the clock that is suppose to appear did not! So after tipping it over the clock appeared three minutes later. It has been on the clock screen for five minutes and still nothing. It is suppose to show results in three minutes. The worst part is I threw my cup of urine out not thinking the test wouldn't work so fmu is gone and no working test! Grrr. At least it is early so I can test again at 9am my time pst. I thought this test would work the best as it is a FRER digi and it would be more sensitive than the CB digi. So frustrated but nothin I can do about it. Going to go back to sleep for an hour until the LO wakes up.
Jane so funny you say that because I bought a 2 pack one regular FRER and one digi FRER and my digi malfunctioned too! When i got it out of the package before I even peed on it the clock was up and blinking.... like is was already working. After I peed it took almost 10 minutes to get a reading... which of course was no!!! I was more than a little irritated but I don't want to waste anymore $ on test since I already got a positive.
Shelly married to DH (35) on 1/22/2005 DD 7/4/06, DD 8/20/08, DD 1/8/11 Firecracker Baby due July 2013!
Praying for healthy!! Hoping for BLUE!
So sorry AF came JV. I know how much it hurts.
Congrats to the new BFPs. Lucky you guys!

Autism Spurs Parents to Act; Program Offers Training to Teach Children at Home
Byline: Shelley Widhalm, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Twenty-year-old Brittney Taylor says "pasta," and Josef Zupan, a 7-year-old child with autism, hands her a picture of noodles on a plate. She says "fur," and with some prompting, Josef hands her the tiger picture.
"High five," Ms. Taylor says, and Josef gives her one.
"Nice job. That's right," are other words of encouragement she uses to reward Josef and keep him on task as they work on vocabulary and following directions.
Ms. Taylor has been teaching Josef, who is completely nonverbal, since July through a training academy sponsored by Parents of Autistic Children of Northern Virginia (POAC-NoVA). The parent-run nonprofit organization, based in Fairfax City, focuses on improving the quality and quantity of education for children with autism. It has 350 families, primarily from Fairfax County, on its membership list.
"There is no quick fix for autism," says Ms. Taylor, a senior at George Mason University (GMU) in Fairfax who is majoring in therapeutic recreation. "It takes dedication and hard work."
Ms. Taylor is among the first eight students, including two parents of autistic children, to graduate from the POAC-NoVA Verbal Behavior Instructors Academy (PVBIA), which trains therapists for running a home program for children with autism.
"We have to, as parents, band together. We want our kids to get a good education, and we need help," says Theresa Wrangham, director of educational development at the U.S. Autism & Asperger Association. The association is a nonprofit organization
based in Draper, Utah, that provides educational and family support for those affected by autism spectrum disorders, a category of neurological disorders that includes autism. She is the parent of a 17-year-old girl with autism.
Parents often can find a consultant to design a home program, but they may have difficulty finding a therapist to work the program, says Justine Chang, who oversees therapist trainers for POAC-NoVa.
"It requires the parents to have a lot of patience. It takes a lot of time. And it puts a heavy impact on their finances," Ms. Chang says.
The shortage of therapists has resulted, in part, from an increase in the rate of autism, which affects 1 in 150 American children, according to POAC-NoVA.
"Autism is a constellation of symptoms that are seen in children who have primary social interactive impairments," says Dr. Stephen Mott of Georgetown University Hospital in Northwest, where he is medical director of the Autism and Communications Disorders Clinic and division chief of pediatric neurology and neurodevelopmental pediatrics for the Department of Pediatrics. He also is an associate professor of pediatrics and neurology at Georgetown University Medical School.
Children with autism have developmental abnormalities in their ability to communicate both verbally and nonverbally, Dr. Mott says.
"It is a disorder that has no primary medical treatment," says Lauren Kenworthy, director of the Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders at the Children's National Medical Center in Northwest. She holds a doctorate in clinical psychology. "The most important treatments we have for autism are behavioral and educational," she says.
PVBIA uses Applied Behavior Analysis/Verbal Behavior (ABA/VB) and other research-based methodologies to build verbal skills and achieve social connectedness.
ABA is a method of teaching that includes breaking tasks into smaller steps that each must be mastered before moving to the next one, says Wendy Fournier, president of the National Autism Association, a nonprofit organization based in Nixa, Mo. …

Trius Therapeutics Inc. Stock Downgraded (TSRX)
TheStreet) -- Trius Therapeutics (Nasdaq: TSRX) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to sell. The area that we feel has been the company's primary weakness has been its disappointing return on equity. Highlights from the ratings report include:NEW YORK (
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Biotechnology industry and the overall market, TRIUS THERAPEUTICS INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- TRIUS THERAPEUTICS INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, TRIUS THERAPEUTICS INC reported poor results of -$1.01 versus -$0.31 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings (-$0.80 versus -$1.01).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Biotechnology industry. The net income increased by 268.4% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from -$8.50 million to $14.31 million.
- This stock has increased by 27.88% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Regarding the future course of this stock, we feel that the risks involved in investing in TSRX do not compensate for any future upside potential, despite the fact that it has seen nice gains over the past 12 months.
- TSRX has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. Along with this, the company maintains a quick ratio of 4.75, which clearly demonstrates the ability to cover short-term cash needs.

Ambassador Herbst Interviewed By Mohiyat Newspaper (11/08/2002)
2002 Press Releases
Ambassador Herbst Interviewed By Mohiyat Newspaper
Ambassador Herbst was interviewed by journalist Tashpulat Rahmatullayev for the newspaper "Mohiyat." The article entitled "U.S. Ambassador: Uzbekistan Taking Steps Towards Open Society" was published on November 8, 2002. Ambassador Herbst said Uzbekistan was not yet an open society even though the country had "started taking steps towards an open society." He said the U.S. welcomes the Uzbek government's decision to abolish the monopoly over the Internet and media censorship. The following are excerpts from the article.
[Passage omitted: A strategic partnership has been established between the U.S. and Uzbekistan and the two countries have broad contacts in various fields]
Tashpulat Rahmatullayev: Respected Mr. Ambassador, what are the initial results and future potential of a strategic partnership between Uzbekistan and the U.S.?
Ambassador Herbst: I think an important result of that cooperation is the abolishment of the Taliban movement and the weakening of the Al-Qaeda organization. In the field of foreign policy the U.S. and Uzbekistan have common interests. Both countries want to see Central Asia free and prosperous. Uzbekistan and the U.S. are coming out against the spread of terrorism and weapons of mass destruction. I think the two countries will continue working in this direction. I also think that local developments in Uzbekistan itself are reflected in regional processes. Together with our Uzbek friends we will further step up our work towards the successful implementation of economic reforms and protection of human rights.
Tashpulat Rahmatullayev: How would you assess Uzbekistan's place and role in Central Asia?
Ambassador Herbst: In the Central Asian region Uzbekistan plays a big and important role. Uzbekistan's position in establishing stability in the region is also great. Uzbekistan is the country with the largest population in the region and has its own strong army. Despite having strong neighbors Uzbekistan is trying to follow an independent policy.
Tashpulat Rahmatullayev: During my visit to the U.S. with a group of journalists as part of the International Visitors Program, I met Secretary of State Colin Powell. Then Mr. Powell said "Your country's democratic development is very important for us. That was the situation before September 11, and it will remain the same in the future."
"An Open Society Does Not Come Easy"
Ambassador Herbst: Today it is very important for you to develop an open society. Now your republic has started taking steps towards an open society. There are several examples of that. Young people are going to western countries to study. We are observing changes in the legal system. They are designed to strengthen the legal system, including the expansion of rights of defense lawyers and the restriction of rights of prosecutors. Also, the Uzbek government has abolished the monopoly on using the Internet and media censorship and these are measures to welcome. The registration of an independent human rights organization was an important development. I consider all these as steps leading Uzbekistan to an open society.
At the same time, I would like to note that these are only the first steps. At present I cannot yet call Uzbekistan an open society. Before the abolishment of censorship the media was unable to give the real essence of the news. The Uzbek media was similar to that of the former Soviets [Union]. Authoritative press units have started of late publishing praiseworthy articles.
Tashpulat Rahmatullayev: I would like to know your opinion on an issue close to that. What do you think about Western and Eastern forms of democracy?
Ambassador Herbst: I think Western democracy is that existing in the western part of the globe while Eastern democracy is that existing in the eastern part of the Earth. Democracy has features common for all parts of the world. They are first of all an opportunity to freely express one's own opinion -- an opportunity to freely express one's opinion even if it does not coincide with the government opinion -- to join political parties, freedom of faith and the restriction of detention of citizens under various pretexts are common features of democracy. Any state having these features can be called democratic. No matter where it is located, in the west or the east.
Tashpulat Rahmatullayev: What do you think of the idea of opening a U.S. consulate, for example, in Samarkand in order to ease work in Uzbekistan's central, western and eastern parts?
Ambassador Herbst: The amount of work of our embassy is increasing as our relations with Uzbekistan are expanding. During my two-year work in Tashkent the number of permanent workers of the U.S. embassy has increased by sixty percent. Their number will increase by another fifty percent in the next three years before our embassy moves to a new building. By doing so we will further increase our services to the republic's population.
After the opening of the new embassy building we will assess the amount of work. Only after that will we consider the idea of opening a consulate in Uzbekistan's other areas, including in a prestigious town like Samarkand.
[Passage to the end omitted: the U.S. Ambassador says Uzbeks are hospitable and congratulates them on Ramadan, wishing them peace and prosperity]

U.S., Dutch partnership benefits both nations during aviation training
May 13, 2011
By Sgt. 1st Class Gail Braymen, Div. West Public Affairs
, Sgt. Steven Schneider, III Corps Public Affairs
Related Links
FORT HOOD, Texas, May 13, 2011 -- Active duty and National Guard Soldiers are training with 139 Dutch soldiers as part of a combined effort to benefit both forces.
The Dutch 11th Air Mobile Brigade is working with Fort Hood's 21st Cavalry Brigade and Company C, 1st Battalion, 131st Aviation Regiment, and an Army National Guard aviation company from North Carolina, during a 31-day exercise that includes leadership development, field first aid, static loading and other infantry and air assault common tasks.
"There's a chance we may be working with other coalition forces, or we may support state department missions," Chief Warrant Officer 2 Martin Gottholm, an air mission commander with C Company, said as his unit trained for its second deployment to Iraq. "It's always good to work with other nations to see how they plan and compare it with how we plan. Hopefully, we take away good things from each other."
The 1-131st will transport cargo, equipment and troops in support of Operation New Dawn. Flying the Dutch troops to and from missions in remote, unimproved areas of Fort Hood was real-world training for the Americans.
"We're always looking to support a ground unit doing this type of mission, because this is the type of mission the units we train will be doing in Iraq and Afghanistan," said Capt. Brian Miles, training officer of the 166th Aviation Brigade's 1st Battalion, 337th Aviation Regiment.
The 166th trains all National Guard and reserve component aviation units, which comprise 47 percent of all Army aviation assets, before they deploy overseas. Sometimes, Miles said, the deploying aviators plan and execute training missions without getting to transport actual people.
"If we can get a ground force, it makes it a lot more realistic," Miles said. "It's a lot better if you use real troops."
Dutch Capt. Job Verberg, Apache pilot, said this is the first time they have trained with ground forces.
"It's actually a boost having them on the ground training, and it's a lot more realistic," he said.
The Dutch soldiers said they appreciate not only the expertise and assistance of the American aviators, but the sheer size of the Fort Hood training area.
"There's so much space for us," Dutch Sgt. 1st Class Vincent Westra, a training evaluator, said. "The villages in the training areas are really well built-up. And there are a lot of helicopters here, which we don't have in the Netherlands. That's why we train here, to have all the assets, to incorporate the American air crew with our Dutch troops on the ground."
"(In Afghanistan and Iraq), we had to work together with the American Soldiers, English soldiers and French soldiers," he added, "so it's really important to train in an international way. This is real life."
Dutch soldiers, who went through the Medical Simulation Training Center with the 21st Cavalry Brigade, said they were particularly impressed by the realism and intensity of the course.
"It was hot and heavy training," said Dutch Sgt. Erwin Maat, Company A, 13th Infantry Battalion, 11th AMB, who acted as platoon sergeant for the simulation. "It was good for team building, and coming from the Netherlands, we're not used to this kind of heat, so it helps prepare us for different environments."
Maat led his platoon through an obstacle course as they tended to wounded and moved a casualty to safety while scaling walls, reacting to improvised explosive devices, dealing with local nationals and communicating for medical evacuation.
At the same time, many Dutch troops were pushing through training at the Leadership Reaction Course, using limited tools to scale obstacles and cross over bodies of water.
"Even though the training program is set up primarily to aid the Dutch, it also helps U.S. forces involved by providing new perspectives and showing them simpler ways of approaching a problem," Col. Morgan Lamb, 21st Cavalry Brigade commander, said.
Dutch Lt. Col. Emco Jellema, commander of the Joint Netherlands Training Detachment, or JNTD, said his unit couldn't have done this without the help of the 21st Cav. Bde. For the past six years, Jellema has commanded the JNTD, which falls directly under the 21st Cav. Bde.
"The focus at Fort Hood is to just make it happen," Jellema said. "The mindset is to give the best possible training anywhere in the world."

I went to edit the script for the Mt.

Line: giveitem2 0x165 0x1 0x13E" and it won't let me compile the script. Any way to fix this? The same thing happens whenever I try to edit any script that involves giving an item. All the .rbh's are in the proper place.

Walter Payton Award finalist Vernon Adams threw for five touchdowns, including two in a pivotal third quarter, to lead third-seeded Eastern Washington to a 41-17 victory over South Dakota State in second-round action of the FCS playoffs.
The Big Sky Conference champion Eagles improved to 11-2 overall and will take on the winner of Saturday's late game between sixth-seeded McNeese State (La.) and Jacksonville State (Ala.) on either Dec. 13 or 14.
South Dakota State, which had its five-game winning streak broken, saw its season end with a 9-5 overall record.
The Jackrabbits took the opening kickoff and drew first blood with an eight-play, 75-yard scoring drive. Quarterback Austin Sumner completed all four of his pass attempts on the drive for 59 yards, capped by a 14-yard touchdown pass to sophomore running back Reggie Gandy.
Eastern Washington tied the game late in first quarter on a 22-yard touchdown pass from Adams to Zack Gehring, then took a 14-7 lead on the second play of the second quarter on a 40-yard touchdown pass from Adams to Cooper Kupp.
SDSU came back to tie the game late in the first half with a nine-play, 53-yard scoring drive. The Jackrabbits' own Walter Payton Award candidate, Zach Zenner, capped the drive with a 1-yard run for his 23rd rushing touchdown of the season.
The Eagles gained control of the game with a pair of touchdowns less than four minutes apart in the third quarter. EWU took the lead for good with 8 minutes, 40 seconds to play in the quarter as Adams hooked up with Zach Wimberly on a 3-yard touchdown.
The momentum shifted further in EWU's favor as the Jackrabbits' attempt at a fake punt on the ensuing possession was snuffed out with the Eagles taking over at the SDSU 34. Four plays later, the Eagles cashed in as Adams connected with Kupp on a 15-yard touchdown in the right corner of the end zone. On the play, Kupp set an FCS freshman record with his 20th touchdown reception of the season, breaking the record previously set by Randy Moss of Marshall (W. Va.) in 1996. The extra point was blocked, however, keeping the score at 27-14.
The Jackrabbits put together their final scoring drive of the game late in the third quarter, driving 63 yards on 13 plays before settling for a 27-yard field goal by Justin Syrovatka.
EWU delivered the knockout punch on the second play of the fourth quarter as Adams connected on a deep ball with Cory Mitchell for a 69-yard touchdown. The Eagles added a late touchdown on a 20-yard run by Quincy Forte.
The Eagles finished the game with 504 yards of total offense, compared to 403 by SDSU.
Adams completed 12-of-22 passes for 217 yards, while Forte rushed 21 times for 202 yards. Kupp led the Eagle receivers with four catches for 90 yards.
For SDSU, Sumner ended the afternoon 26-of-40 passing for 315 yards. Senior wide receiver Trevor Tiefenthaler recorded career highs of 11 catches for 139 yards, while Jason Schneider added six receptions for 81 yards in setting the Jackrabbit single-season record with 78 receptions. Gandy contributed six receptions for 30 yards and two carries for 10 yards on the ground.
Zenner crossed the 2,000-yard mark for the second consecutive season, finishing the year with 2,015 after tallying 71 yards on 21 carries.
Senior linebacker R.C. Kilgore led the Jackrabbits with 12 tackles. Ronnie Hamlin recorded a game-high 13 tackles for Eastern Washington.

Near the intersection of pace and chaos
a sparrow with a red-tipped wing paused to note
the patterns in the cracks
between the woulds
wherewith if there were a sudden summer gust,
might open up a hollow wherein everything's something
stands silent shining deep within,
a world of concrete magic swept beneath the shrugs
of fury-eyed decisions in the wake of
fear-filled madness
There were times,
that something was our everything,
you know.
Penniless creatures glide gently above, marking soft shaped hearts
latched to frothy strewn clouds and rainy bows,
flapping wings striking paths above darkness far below
Your boots
were always brand new,
and the sticker price was
and the prints always disappeared with the snow,
you know.
A minuscule lime green thread wraps around the tip of my finger
some unmarked obelisk
and stretches far into the yellows
to say hello,
you were here, I marked the spot.
I tied another red one from here stretched to flaming orange,
and also, there you were.
stretched to royal purples, you were here, you were there,
we were everywhere.
Sparrows lead the way with beaks of arrows
while perfectly the world slides off the gentle sway of their backs,
like the curve of your cheeks;
that softness where no matter what hardness I might know,

Sleep, I don't know what that is. I would probably say about 4-5 but not in a row. My LO still wakes up in the middle of the night to feed and I don't go to bed til late and then have to wake up early with LO. My fault mostly I guess, I could go to bed earlier but then when would I be on bbc?
***Mom to Miki 10/1/07 and lil bean edd 3/2/11***
I haven't slept for 6 years and then some since the end of my 1st pregnancy.
Each night I get 0 hours of sleep. I work 12 hours overnight, so I get my sleep during the day and then its only 4 hours a day.
Oh I total about 4 hours a day...never in a row...Has NOTHING to do with my Dec07 baby! My 11 yr old!! And of course, me!! And DH's work schedule...seems I'm always making excuses NOT to go to bed? LOL
i get 7 hours minimum... and will not take anything less. make that baby sleep at night!!!
haters dont lie, they testify.
between 6-7 hours a night
Change your diet and conceive the gender of your dreams!
I don't get much sleep and I can't even blame it on my kids. I have been dealing with insomnia for 2 years this fall. I have gotten it under control recently until this week. I haven't slept well in the last 3 days. One night I didn't fall asleep until 4am and I have to get up at 6:00. Ugh..... I have some medical issues that seem to be the cause and I'm trying to fix them.

Brandon and Abbys Mommy - I feel bad for you. 2 YEARS of insomnia is crazy. I have never had it more than 3-4 months at a clip and it usually is followed by a bout of depression.
Anywho, I get somewhere between 4-6 hours each night.
Lucky Mom to Maribeth (5) and Jae-Mi (3.5)
Thanks Suzie. It does suck. I love to sleep, so it really bothers me. I finally saw the doctor about it and I'm currently taking high blood pressure meds to help it. It usually helps me, but I'm under some stress this week and Aunt Flo is here too, so that may be my problem. Grrrrrrrrrr.......... I may be looking at surgery this summer, so I'm stressing a tad about it.
