Nicole Kidman Opens Up about Keith Urban's Alcohol Problem
Actress Nicole Kidman was married to country singer Keith Urban just three months before he was admitted into rehab for alcohol abuse – now she's talking about it.
"[Keith and I] were thrown into his alcohol problem three months into the marriage, and that was big," she tells Parade magazine. "We became the closest we could become, because we had to bare our souls. We did 10 years of marriage in three months."
Kidman talks about the days when Keith was in rehab and how the two got through it. "You go to hell and back with this—when the addiction takes control of the life, it's terrifying," Nicole continues. "But there is hope, and we work on it every day, and we are in a place of actual peace right now, which is a beautiful place."

Good towel to take along when space for dive gear is limited. It does a good job drying you off but the towel doesnt dry out as quickly as I hoped. Make sure you wash it before using the first time(or you may turn blue) and never use fabric softener in the wash or the water will bead up on it and roll right off of it.

I bought this duffel based on the positive reviews I had read about it. We use it for local dive trips and when traveling. It takes up very little room in the dive gear case. The bag holds 2 sets of dive gear (which includes 2 bcs). The best features are the wheels & the ability to hose everything off right in the bag. We think its a great bag and recommend it highly.

A Week of VacationBeth Anne Ballance
I have incredibly fond memories of "Christmas vacation" as a little girl. My mom was a stay-at-home mom, but she still managed to make the days surrounding Christmas feel extra-special, even when we were really young and used to being home all day.
We made cookies and had hot breakfast and spent time watching Christmas movies beyond our usual television time. She'd let us stay up late and make popcorn and have "sleepovers" in the playroom. These memories are some of my favorites.
When I found out that my company gave us Christmas vacation, actual real time off other than Christmas Day, I nearly fainted with joy. Thanks to my office and boss, I got 11 days straight with my little guy at the most magical time of the year.
We tried to make it a good one — I'm not sure what the next year holds for us or if I will ever get the same kind of time with him, so I wanted something that even if he didn't remember, we could look back at pictures and know that we made the most of it.
Winter walks 1 of 13Almost every day, we bundle up and head outdoors for a walk in the neighborhood trails.
Baking cookies 2 of 13We made treats for Christmas and the neighbors - cake chews, cookies, Buckeyes, fudge....
Lunch in bed 3 of 13Spaghetti in bed while watching Cars? Sure, why not. It's vacation!
So many puzzles 4 of 13He is definitely my child - he LOVES puzzles! Santa brought EIGHT new ones, and we've mastered a few old ones.
Dance Party 5 of 13We had a "date night in" with a favorite little family. The adults had beverages and supper while the boys ran wild. It was so much fun!
Snuggles 6 of 13Loads of these. Blankets of forts while we watch movies, naps, and wrestling on the floor.
Out to dinner 7 of 13We went out with our extended family for a birthday dinner. It was fun to dress up a little and Harry is doing great with manners in a restaurant.
Christmas morning 8 of 13No shock here - this was a highlight. Santa brought the monster trucks he asked for and he was a happy (overwhelmed!) little boy.
Letting Harry pick a lunch date 9 of 13We've done most of our eating at home, but I let Harry pick one day where we went on a momma/son lunch date. He chose Chick Fil A. I remember doing the same with my mom (I always chose McDonald's!)
A little discipline 10 of 13Yep, there were some tears and time-outs, but that's actually nice in a weird way. It's good for me to get to discipline him during the day.
Swingers 11 of 13I taught Harrison how to use a "big boy swing" this week. It's adorable watching him "pump" his legs.
Playdoh is king 12 of 13What is with toddlers and playdoh? I kind of hate the stuff, but he loves it so it was a constant fixture on the kitchen table this week, especially on rainy days!
Just a lot of this 13 of 13I love him. I love him, love him, love him. Thanks for an awesome week, little buddy.

I have some Perl scripts which needs to be runned every 3 days once, The following is syntax which I have entered, Can you please let me know, Is this correct or wrong.
30 19 * * */3 root /var/scripts/svn_backup.pl
It's wrong. The last column is the day of week. You probably want to move
The */3 is in the wrong column your specification should be
The */3 syntax is the same as saying 1,4,7 ... 25,28,31. Note that some months it will run on 31st and the next month it will run on the 1st because the interval specifications do not wrap, they always start at the beginning of a sequence. In this case your script gets run without the required interval.
If you need something to run every 3 days then you would have to run your script every day and have it determine if 3 days have passed and exit/continue as appropriate.
In perl you could do something like
which would run the script every 3 days based on the UNIX epoch.

Criminal Law
Thornton, Gabriel T., Suffolk University Law Review
Jury's Silence on Theory of First-Degree Murder Not an Acquittal for Double Jeopardy Purposes--Commonwealth v. Carlino, 865 N.E.2d 767 (Mass. 2007)
Prohibitions against double jeopardy, whether based on the Double Jeopardy Clause of the United States Constitution or the right provided by Massachusetts law, prevent the government from subjecting individuals to the hazards of standing trial more than once for the same offense. (1) Generally, courts have not interpreted a jury's silence on one charge as an implied acquittal for purposes of double jeopardy, unless the jury's guilty verdict on another charge logically excludes guilt of the charge on which the jury remained silent. (2) In Commonwealth v. Carlino, (3) the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court (SJC) considered whether a jury's silence on one of three alternate theories of first-degree murder at the defendant's first trial prevented the Commonwealth from retrying the defendant on that same theory. (4) The SJC held that the jury's silence on the felony-murder theory in Thomas Carlino's first trial was not an acquittal for double jeopardy purposes and, thus, did not prevent retrial on that theory. (5)
In 1995, the Commonwealth tried Thomas Carlino for first-degree murder on three theories: premeditation, extreme atrocity or cruelty, and felony-murder. (6) At the trial's conclusion, the judge gave the jury a verdict slip with lines for "Not Guilty" and "Guilty of Murder in the First Degree," as well as lines for each of the three theories of first-degree murder under the line for guilty. (7) The judge instructed the jury that if they found the defendant guilty of first-degree murder they must "answer the questions ... as to under which theory or theories, whether it be one, two, or all three." (8) The jury convicted Carlino of murder in the first degree on both the premeditation and extreme atrocity or cruelty theories, placing an "X" on the line next to both, but the jury placed no mark on the line for felony-murder. (9) Upon appeal, the SJC reversed Carlino's first-degree murder conviction and remanded for a new trial because of erroneous or misleading jury instructions on provocation, self-defense, and defense of another. (10)
In Carlino's second trial in 2001, the trial judge initially ruled that double jeopardy principles barred retrial on the felony-murder theory but reversed herself the following day. (11) At the close of evidence, the judge instructed the jury on premeditation, extreme atrocity or cruelty, and felony-murder, and the jury convicted Carlino of first-degree murder on all three theories. (12) Once again, Carlino appealed his conviction to the SJC, and argued the prohibition against double jeopardy prevented the second jury from considering the felony-murder theory after the first jury failed to convict him on that theory. (13) The SJC held the ban on double jeopardy did not prevent the second jury from convicting on felony-murder because the jury's failure to "check the felony-murder box" was neither a conviction nor an acquittal for double jeopardy purposes. (14)
The Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution prohibits double jeopardy and applies to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment. (15) Both Massachusetts statutory and case law provide prohibitions on double jeopardy independent of the federal prohibition. (16) The Double Jeopardy Clause prevents the government from subjecting a defendant to the hazards of trial, including possible punishment, more than once for the same offense. (17) The prohibition prevents three specific actions: a prosecution for the same offense after acquittal, a prosecution for the same offense after conviction, and multiple punishments for the same offense. (18) Double jeopardy principles, however, do not necessarily bar retrial on the same offense following a successful appeal. (19) Courts balance double jeopardy concerns against society's countervailing interest in bringing criminals to justice. …

A Pirouette around Poverty
Collazos, Oscar, UNESCO Courier
Two enthusiastic and seasoned choreographers open new horizons for underprivileged children in Cartagena by introducing them to modern dance
Alvaro Restrepo, a Colombian dancer and choreographer, could have pursued his career anywhere in the world--in New York, where he was trained, or in Europe, where he first made his mark. But in 1993, he decided to sacrifice all this to introduce modern dance to Colombia--where the discipline was barely known--and to teach it to disadvantaged children between 10 and 15 years old. He teamed up with Marie-France Delieuvin, programme director at the National Centre for Modern Dance in Angers, France, and their joint endeavour has produced astonishing results.
In 1997, four years after sowing the seeds of the new art form in Bogota and Cali, they launched Project El Puente ("The Bridge"), which reached Cartagena a few months later. The city where Restrepo was born 42 years ago is a historic tourist centre featured on UNESCO'S World Heritage List, but it cannot hide a darker side: two-thirds of its 700,000 inhabitants live below the poverty line.
Restrepo and Delieuvin's bridge is two-way. It has led a pair of dedicated performers to the outskirts of one of Cartagena's most wretched slums, while also linking the project to professionals in Europe and Latin America through festivals and exchanges.
In 1997 and 1998, Restrepo began a programme of "awareness training" that reached 480 children at Inem College in Cartagena. He eventually ended up with a smaller group of 90 young dancers striving to hone their skills in a discipline that touched the very roots of their cultural and personal identity. After a few months, through a kind of natural selection that left only those determined to take part in a creative project, 22 of the children qualified for membership in the Experimental Troupe of the Academy of the Body. They were crossing the bridge, travelling from one side of the river to the other.
From outcasts to performers
Driven on by their poverty sticken backgrounds, the chosen boys and girls--now more mature, with deeper voices and changed bodies--are often tempted to shirk off school to rehearse their new dance projects everyday in the beautiful colonial-era cloisters of the 16th-century San Francisco convent, leant especially to the troupe by a religious foundation. Its wide, empty courtyard is flanked by the Centennial Park and the city's modern convention centre, while the old neighbourhood of Getsemani lies just behind. …

A Report Card for Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC)
Feb 20th
By Jessica Rogers, {grow} Contributing Columnist
Massive Open Online Courses, or MOOCs, have been hotly debated by the media in recent years. Although many are free and promise to bring an Ivy League education to the masses, these open-source college courses often suffer from massive dropout rates and organizational problems.
After deciding to take a break from my doctoral studies about a year ago, I enrolled in some of these courses for some inspiration to guide my dissertation work. The low, often nonexistent, cost of these courses and quick pace (6-8 weeks) was appealing, and I was able to cherry-pick courses from prestigious schools like Northwestern, Princeton, and Duke, among others.
Most MOOCs do not offer college credit (though some do offer "signature track" selections that offer a Verified Certificate for a small fee), but I found a wide variety of offerings in Business, Higher Education, Social Media, and Marketing coursework. I was interested to see how these universities would adapt their curriculum to this new format, and whether or not professors and students would flourish in this environment. I currently teach all of my university courses online, so I find it valuable to to see how other instructors and schools present material and design courses.
My MOOC was a Mess
The first MOOC was a disaster. There were 41,000 students in my class, offered by Georgia Tech — all of them trying to ask questions, deleting content, and flooding the discussion forums.
The course layout and materials were difficult to navigate, the content was lackluster, and the system was fraught with technical problems. By day six, the chaos forced an overwhelmed instructor to suspend the course, and we were left wondering when it would be offered again (it has not been, as of this writing).
Several students blogged about this course and the mishap was covered by the Washington Post, Slate, and Inside Higher Ed, to name a few. Ironically, the course was titled, "The Fundamentals of Online Learning."
I've since gone on to take online classes from Princeton, Northwestern, and Duke, and I graded the experience as follows:
Course Selections : B
There are several major MOOC providers (Coursera, Udacity, edX, among others) that partner with various universities to deliver their course content on the web, and each one structures and presents this material differently. While I didn't find many choices that I felt would be comparable to an upper-level or graduate-level course at a major university (most of these feel like first year, undergraduate-type courses), I found quite a few interesting offerings on very specific, niche topics. I took classes like "Understanding the Media by Understanding Google," and "Content Strategy for Professionals, " for example, both offered by Northwestern University.
Professors : B
The Georgia Tech course was obviously a flop, but aside from the technical woes that ground the course to a halt, I still had the sense that the professor was knowledgeable and credible. Both of the courses I took from Northwestern were guided by professors with impressive CV's and featured well-produced, enjoyable video content. Some classes featured multiple professors, and the courses from Princeton even offered tech support and lecture notes from graduate assistants.
Content : C
The courses I took were only 8 weeks long, and that didn't really seem like enough time for an in-depth study of the topics. I would have expected more robust content offerings, considering the prestigious reputation of some these universities. While the videos were well produced (no webcams used), I assumed the assets would have been a little more technically advanced than the classes I teach. They weren't.
Interaction With Other Students : B
While one might hope that this type of system could facilitate more discussion between fellow students and professors, I felt many students were only pursuing the courses to acquire connections rather than skills. Many of the classes are built around discussion boards that, when class sizes balloon above 40,000, become cacophonous and impractical. Many of these classes depended too heavily on peer learning, which became a cluttered mess.
Interaction With Professors : F
Besides connecting with professors on LinkedIn, I had no other interaction with them– not even on discussion boards.
Level of Difficulty : D
The courses were not difficult. However, a recent study by the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education found that only about half of the students ever viewed a lecture, and only 4 percent completed the courses, an indictment of the effectiveness of this mode of learning. Additionally, a San Jose State University MOOC experiment is being called a "flop" by the New York Times. The school offered three intro level (for college credit ) courses via Udacity. MOOC students did far worse than those who took the classes on campus. In one course, only 12 percent earned a passing grade.
Assignments : B
Assignments included multiple-choice quizzes, case studies, and written assignments, many of these graded by peers. I'm hesitant to award a good grade here, as I'm not a fan of peer graded activity. Most of these peer-graded activities provided me with little to no feedback, and were often just a score.
Would I Take More?
Maybe you've never taken an online course before and want to get your feet wet, or are thinking of returning to school after a long time– maybe you, like me, just like to learn. There are many classes that provide Verified Certificates that could be helpful in many industries. Is it comparable to a college degree? Probably not. But this could be a cost-effective way for some people to differentiate themselves, especially in a workforce where a traditional degree isn't necessary. MOOCs could be an option for professional development, or an inexpensive way to prepare for college testing.
On the whole, I found these classes to be condensed, slightly dumbed-down versions of traditional university courses. I won't say they are irrelevant, but they have a ways to go before replacing more conventional college curriculum.
What have your experiences been? Do you see businesses utilizing MOOCs for professional development instead of more expensive university offerings? Will businesses really benefit in the end from this condensed curriculum, as opposed to a University certification program?

2014: The Year of the Cheer
Jan 16th
By Jessica Rogers, {grow} Contributing Columnist
In the late 80's my father began managing a manufacturing plant in Texas. I worked for him part time and then full time during the 90's. I can honestly say I can properly stack a pallet, un-jam a bottle sleever, and drive a forklift! I also learned the value of hard work, teamwork, and leadership.
I was out to brunch with my parents when a grown man in a nice suit approached my family and gave my dad the biggest, most heart-felt bear hug. He was a young man my father had mentored in his company and over the years he had watch him mature and flourish. My Dad seemed to be as proud of his protégé as he is of my brother and I.
The young man my father worked with graduated with a Masters about six years ago, and is now working in Colorado. He has learned from my dad's example and is already paying it forward in his local community by bringing an award-winning Kids' Lab program to two schools during National Chemistry Week, and is also donating unused warehouse space to the cause.
When he walked away, my Dad began to tell me how in his early career he had a great mentor at Pfizer, and it inspired my father to pay that forward, too. My father taught me the value of mentoring without ever saying it. He taught by example.
I really feel strongly about helping others succeed. Now, that I work in academia, my students are my mentees. Each term I have almost 200 fresh faces to size up, and assure — if you need guidance I am here.
There is such a fear of the unknown in the university setting for students, and there shouldn't be. There should be a feeling of excitement for exploration. There is a divide between faculty and students, and there shouldn't be. The faculty are there not only to teach, but to guide.
In a post last month, I addressed my student's lack of ambition when it comes to personal branding and networking via social media. The post was not directed solely on Millennials or Gen Y. I have non -traditional students as well older students this applies to. Perhaps it is not laziness with all students, but the fear of the unknown that plays a part in this. Universities and faculty need to step in and become mentors as well as teachers.
2014: The year of the Cheer
There is no greater sense of accomplishment than a heartfelt email from a student thanking you for believing in them, for being the one constant in their life while they went through a divorce, job loss, or illness while they were in school.
I have learned from my father's example and I have witnessed the rippling power of mentoring first-hand. If you have not experienced this yourself, I would like to challenge you to take a step into this world yourself. You never know how your life experiences, education, and counsel can help a young person and change a life.
Did you have a wonderful Mentor during your career? Is this your year to pay it forward too? Is this your Year of the Cheer?

Why many of my students will not have a job upon graduation
Nov 27th
By Jessica Rogers, {grow} Contributing Columnist
If you have made any kind of a career change in the past decade, more than likely you did not find your new position through a job fair or want ad. Yet, this is how many of my college students expect to find a job this spring when they graduate. Surprised? Read on.
One of the most aggravating experiences I have as a teacher (at two different universities) is the lack of ambition demonstrated by students today and the almost total absence of a professional networking presence on the social web.
Sure everybody is on Facebook, but marketing undergrads are simply not utilizing social media platforms like LinkedIn and blogging to their full potential for business purposes. Last week, I conducted a non-scientific study on LinkedIn use among my undergraduate students and an underwhelming 10% of my students have a LinkedIn Profile! Note students are traditional and non-traditional undergrads, working and non-working, and a mix of majors.
However, nearly 90% mention "Job Fair" and/or "want ads" as a way they will find a career/job. Really?! So the big plan is to sit back for 4 years (or however long you intend to take courses), and then go to a job fair in hopes of finding your dream job?! Dream on. These students need to be proactive and take control of their careers.
Use your college years for more than beer pong
Just imagine the possible connections you could make through the social web during your college years.
If I had this opportunity when I was an undergrad I would have taken that social media bull by the horns. Instead, I spent my college career working for various companies gaining work experience through internships and finally during my senior year I browsed magazines looking at advertisements to pick businesses I would like to work for. If there was a mailing address anywhere on the page, I mailed my resume there. I did my research, mailed resumes all over the U.S., and networked however I could, but this was time consuming and a bit random to say the least.
Fast Forward to 2013! Students should be using the technological resources available to you to prepare for the job search before graduation and then again to finally cast that net for a job.
How about getting to work?
This is still a tough job market but there are certainly jobs out there for ambitious young graduates. But it's not just going to be handed to you because you have a decent GPA and attended a job fair.
Employers want to see what you can DO, how you add value NOW, and that is best demonstrated through internships.
What about interning, getting involved in student chapter of industry groups (on and offline) and showing some ambition and drive! Show me (and your future employer) that you give a damn about your "career goals."
There is no excuse to not be building a relevant portfolio of work while you are still in school, whether it is a paid internship, volunteering at a business or charity, or demonstrating leadership with a student organization. This work can also help you build new connections and specific industry knowledge that can help your employment outlook,
Set your self apart from the competition by showing a bit of enthusiasm and gumption.
Get cracking.
I addressed this topic on my own personal blog a year and a half ago and I share that post each term with my Marketing students. No matter how much I emphasize the importance of building personal brand and gaining experience, it doesn't seem to be sinking in,
Even after my exhortations, a VERY small percentage do anything more to take control of their "Personal Branding" activity by the end of the term. If I read one more paper on how a Job Fair and Monster.com is going to fit right in with their "career goals" I will literally puke. That is just lazy.
At a minimum, before you graduate you should …
Have a complete LinkedIn profile, including multi-media, testimonies, noteworthy projects, and an active, relevant network
Have a personal blog about your career goals and aspirations. In fact every job-seeker should blog.
Demonstrate that you can create content, promote it, and build an audience
Have at least two work experiences relevant to your employment goals
I rant because I care.
There are several career paths that pretty much demand a social presence in my opinion. Social Media Marketing, Journalism, PR, and Communications … to name a few. If you are not online showcasing skills and interest, you are effectively sabotaging yourself. Do not think that you do not know enough people to make an effective network. You do, it will start small and grow over time. Stop making excuses. Get involved, Do the work.
By the way, if you have a great success story of how LinkedIn, blogging, or other social media platforms have opened doors for you, please share with a comment. I would love to shares these real life scenarios with my classes!

Four critical Social Media Lessons I learned from my 4 year old
Nov 13th
By Jessica Rogers, {grow} Contributing Columnist
My son just turned 4 and has developed into a kind and considerate little man. Before you say "of course, he is your son, brag much?", let me support my theory with a bit of fact. The truth is, I am learning from him. I marvel at what we can learn about connecting on the social web from this little man …
Thank you is just the beginning of the relationship
On his birthday, we had a party for all his friends at a gymnastics place where the kids could bounce around and burn some energy. After the party, not only did he actually thank each friend for coming and for each present, he could recall who got him what afterwards! The staff at the gymnastics joint commented on his awesome manners. A proud Mommy moment and even more proud the weeks following when my son still remembered what each of his friends gave him.
In social it is so easy to show gratitude but often can be time consuming when you have many followers/fans/comments. However, a little "Thank you" goes a long way!
Thank people for sharing in a Tweet, Re-Tweet something that resonates with you, or share a blog post that your followers would enjoy. Pay it forward, be a resource for others and support those around you. Also, know it does not have to stop at "Thank you." There have been countless times my son and I have been going into school or a store and someone has held the door open for us. My son politely says (on his own) "Thank you" and then asks me, "Mommy why didn't they say You're welcome?"
"Thank you" is just the beginning of a relationship. The doors of communication are now open and you have endless possibilities of what you can do with the relationship.
Stay centered
My son has the most beautiful long blonde hair, and he loves it! He allows me to trim it but he really wants to have long hair. This is a part of him.
l recently took my son to McDonald's to romp in the play area (He absolutely thinks this is THE most fun ever). The last two times we went to McD's he comes up to me with a new friend (once it was a girl the other time a boy) and says, " Mommy tell him/her I'm a boy!"(because of his hair). No matter how many times he has a "prove your gender" altercation or is called a girl at his own birthday party (yes this did actually happen), it does not phase him. He likes what he likes, and that is it.
Whether you are a person, a business or a brand on the social web, you're going to get knocked around a bit. But you must represent yourself in one true, consistent voice. You can't be something you are not. Stay centered.
Patience Pays in Social Media Lessons
My family had been looking forward to the State Fair of Texas all year. My son has big dreams about it and was sure he could ride all the big rides now. After all, he was 4!
Realistically, he was just one inch taller than last year, so we were still very limited in what he could enjoy at the fair. This did not phase him at all. He went, he saw, he conquered the same three fun houses and four rides. All day.
He patiently waited all year for the fair, patiently waited to park, patiently waited in many lines to eat, drink, ride rides, and play games. And then, it was all over in 8 hours.
In social, success rarely happens over night. You must nurture the relationships you make, consistently deliver valuable content, and engage with others in an authentic way. Most of the time, you have to wait to ride the big rides.
Just as it takes time to build a valuable brand, it takes time to build a good social following. Simply opening accounts serves little or no purpose. Don't give up after one month and you have only 15 followers on Twitter and no one has read your blog post. Just think of the possibilities: communities to be part of, businesses you can work with, folks to connect with, and all of the knowledge that goes along with it.
The Wonder of Learning
Each day my little dude learns at least two new things. How wonderful is that? Life is constantly exciting for him because the world is a wonder.
How can you capture this spirit in your own life? Are you spending time to learn and wonder?
Make it a point in your life to try to always be learning. Social make this so easy. You have a world full of folks on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and G+ willing to connect with you and share new content and ideas. Many of these connections can be instrumental to you personally and professionally and likewise, you can be very instrumental to them. It can be a very mutually beneficial on various levels. You must first listen, then engage and take part in the conversation. Identify mentors and learn from them.
This post was not meant to be a page in my Mommy Brag Book. But, when thinking of some of the basics of social, they really do relate back to the basics of a happy life. Keep things in perspective. Be genuine. Be the person you want to meet. And be sure to take the rocks out of your pockets before starting the laundry!
What are you learning from your kids and how is relating to your business?

Sometimes it doesn't matter how you play in the first three quarters of a basketball game if you finish on a strong note.
The East All-Stars used a 10-1 run early in the fourth quarter to defeat the West 56-46 Saturday in the Six-Man Coaches Association Girls All-Star Basketball at Monterey.
"We knew we had to get after it in the fourth quarter," said Chillicothe's Sarah Littlecreek, who named the game's Most Valuable Player. "If we didn't we were going to lose the game.
The East had as much as a 15-point advantage in the first half, but had its lead cut to 38-36 after three quarters.
But the East quickly built its lead again as Gordon's Holly Rexcoat opened the quarter with a hoop, and Littlecreek drained a 3-pointer to give the East a 43-36 advantage.
Littlecreek, who scored a team-high 15 points, drained another 3 and Barbie Hagle added a basket to push the East's lead to 48-37 with 4:48 remaining in the game.
The West was able to creep with six at two different times, the last coming on a pair of Jennifer Roemisch free throws with a 1:36 left.
But the East clamped down as Rexcoat and Karen Finch closed the game with baskets.
Srawn's Amanda Ama chipped in with 11 points and a game-high nine rebounds for the East.
Ira's Terri Robinson paced the West with 16 points while Grady's Katie Yates had 10 points and eight rebounds.
The game was satisfying for Robinson, who missed the final two months of the season with a knee injury.
"It was good for me to show I could play after the knee surgery," Robinson said. "I had a fun time out there."
The East used strong defense and free-throw shooting to build a 32-23 halftime lead.
The West only had five field goals in the first half as the East, who hit 13-of-14 from the charity stripe in the first half, took a 17-8 lead after the first quarter and built it up to 32-17 with two minutes left.
The West whittled the lead to 32-23 at halftime, and pulled within 32-29 with 5:10 remaining in the third quarter on a Roemisch layup.
The East ended their six-minute scoring drought on a basket by Melissa Denning with 3:40 left in the third.SUBHEAD:

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Southern California defensive secondary coach Willie Mack Garza has resigned, citing personal reasons.
Garza announced his resignation Thursday, two days before the Trojans' season opener against Minnesota.
He joined the USC staff in January 2010, leaving Tennessee along with head coach Lane Kiffin, assistant head coach Monte Kiffin and defensive coordinator Ed Orgeron.
Garza is a former defensive back at Texas. He says he has "some personal issues unrelated to USC that I need to address."

Ok I know this is just the dumbest thing ever to be worried about...but I SERIOUSLY do not want my baby to be born on 4/20. The "stoner" holiday LOL
I know it doesn't matter and trust me I just want her born healthy and when she is ready, but I don't really want her b-day to be the day that is every pot-head's favorite day.
So, are there any days that you don't really want your baby to have as their b-day? Why?
**Again - let me reiterate - We all just want our babies HERE and HEALTHY and we will welcome them on whatever day they choose to be here...this is just for fun

If you like quiet this is the place to stay! Nice, small park directly on the shore of Lake Michigan. No cable TV, but over the air signals are available. No sewer at site, but they have a dump station. Nice owner, very accommodating. Since they cannot provide cable, the owner has a large selection of VHS tapes and DVDs available, a nice touch. Wi-Fi worked well. We would definitely return. - Bob & Stephanie

Beautiful location with a great view of Lake Michigan and fairly close to Big Spring State Park. If there were sewer hookups, the rating would be a 10. We stay here whenever passing through the area just for the view. There are several videos available in the office and a book exchange. Very nice owner. - hahnderosa

A real gem for overnighters like us. Not exactly a 'campground'. Does have laundry facilities, though we didn't use them. Grass and gravel sites, many right on the shores of Lake Michigan. Owner very accommodating, directed us to our site. Quiet, relaxing, but not much to do. Perfect for us. Sites level. Water and electric good, voltage steady. Wi-Fi open, easy to connect, and reliable. We will stay here again. - kipmeister

A beautiful location with spacious sites. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They held a package that was sent for us and delivered to our campsite. Good walking trails and biking possibilities. - Bill V3
Sep 2015 - $26.00
Park is tight for a big rig but gal on phone said my 40 ft motor home and toad would have room to stay hooked up and it did. Most are seasonal but we had about 7 overnighters when we were here. It has a lake but very small beach and no dogs allowed there or anywhere in the park except to walk to dog run. Kind of a pain with our two dogs as we have been staying at places that are wide open. IMO this park is alright for one night but I wouldn't stay for a season. We had 50 amp service as 30 amp was only 2 dollars cheaper and we needed AC. Water and sewer with WiFi that worked fine as we were close to office. This will be our only stay here or in the future. - signaloil

We just returned from our second stay at Indian Lake State Park. This is a great park set on a large inland lake in the Upper Peninsula. It is a great swimming lake and rather shallow, which means it is much warmer than nearby Lake Michigan. Many campers take advantage of the lake for boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. Campsites are decent size and most are easy enough to access. There are three sets of conveniently-located bathhouses/showers. While they are older, they are immaculately maintained and cleaned daily. Access roads are paved, and sites are grass and most are shaded. Reserve early (6 months) for a lakefront site. Sunset is a special time at Indian Lake SP! Lakefront sites on the north end of the park sit on a bluff, while the south end is at lake level. Manistique is a convenient location for exploring Michigan's Upper Peninsula. - RagTopDay

This is a small fishing resort on a very pretty lake. We just stayed overnight. It is about 4 miles off the main road. We were very close to our neighbors. It was acceptable for an overnight. - suerover
Aug 2015 - $27.00
Arrived and left within minutes. Called the day prior to confirm the site would be wide and wifi was readily available, was assured of both amenities. Reserved a FHU a site to accommodate our 35' 5th wheel, but the assigned site was very narrow (lined with trees and uphill), and wifi code only good for a single device (laptop or iPad, not phones). Cash/check only, no cc. 95% seasonal or residents, not scenic. A single swing set immediately next to trees was the "play area". Save yourself the headache and go a few miles around the lake for a lake front site triple the size and half the price!!! - KBMontana
Jul 2015 - $26.00
The spaces in this park are very close together, although we had a good site near the boat ramp. This site did not have a sewer hook-up, but we used the dump station on our way out. It was a very crowded park. The extra electrical charge for running the a/c seemed silly, but at night it was cool even in July. The lake is nice, but the mosquitos take over once the sun goes down. We stayed here for two nights. - Alicenpete

This is a park with total peace and quiet. It is remindful of a small state park. Well groomed and left natural. Lots of four wheelers, but all were very respectful. Never noisy or riding fast in the park. WIFI is only at the lodge vicinity.
This is the wilderness and the following has nothing to do with the park: Not one broadcast TV station, no Verizon cell service and only 3 radio stations. - B&S
Aug 2015 - $25.00
This is a little gem in the middle of forest. It's a newer campground with full hook ups and level gravel pads. They are a decent size with vegetation between the sites for privacy.
The best thing about this spot is the Jack Pine Lodge bar. It is a small "classic northwood lodge" with old log decor. They have awesome burgers and smoked meats. We especially enjoyed the smoked brisket and smoked turkey sandwiches. The people were super friendly so we had a lot of fun there talking to the locals. We also appreciated that it was a 3 minute walk back to camper.
The only bad thing is that we couldn't get on the wifi, but that can be a good thing too! - MazoCak

Its hard to complain about free. We discovered that there are two 30 amp hookups next to the parking lot, and a half dozen or so sites with 20 amp hookups which are back away from the parking lot and near some trees. All sites are on grass, but automobile owners may park to block in a big rig making leaving more difficult. However, we left in the morning and the parking lot was nearly empty, so no problem. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. By registering for a Rewards card I received $10 gambling credit, and since Friday night was ladies night, wife received $15 credit. We might stay here again. Considering the price, its not a bad place at all. - jmorgan54

I was lured in by the free camping, and then lost $300 on slots. RV camping is free at this location this year. Sites are back-in, grassy, and about 300 feet long. You may want to check-out early as non-observant casino customers begin parking their cars in front of the motorhomes, blocking you in. All that is available is 20 amp electric. There is no water, or dump station, or garbage can. This location only has the RV park, does not have a hotel. No reservations. Just pick a site, you don't have to register anything. We were the only camper here on a mid-July day. Convenient location to explore Manistique attractions. The lakeside parks in Manistique have fresh water springs so bring a jug if you want to get drinking water. A restaurant is available, but we didn't get a chance to try it. Free coffee and soda in the casino. We were on a casino camping tour, and this place is conveniently located between Kewadin St. Ignace, and Islands Casino near Escanaba. Casino is open til 3am, so you may hear some car doors during the night. Security is around, so we slept good. - cherrytree

I think Yellow had even a bigger and better effect on the player if played BEFORE watching the anime (that's not the way the developers thought it but it's what happened to me)... I was about 7 at the time and I couldn't watch the anime because of the school T_T but I knew about its existence, maybe I had managed to watch one ore two episodes. Then I bought Yellow and saw that it was "like the anime", and played it very happily!!
But, once I started to watch some of the anime a bit more seriously, in every episode I could remember the equivalent position in the game for example of a city, and in some episodes (like the one in Cerulean if I'm not mistaken) the anime had even the same musics, which obviously I perfectly memorized after two days!! It was like the Paradise for me, little kid...

I wait to buy all my Fall Football Gear until Donor Appreciation Night at the Duck Shop, I'm REALLY HOPING they have something like this. Or, at least the dress.

Exciting things going on around here!

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Eugene police have arrested a father and son after a high-speed car chase that followed a bank robbery.
Police spokeswoman Jenna McCulley says Officer Aaron Johns responded to the Monday afternoon robbery at a Pacific Continental Bank branch. The officer tried to stop a departing car but the car took off. Eventually, Springfield police and Oregon State Police helped Eugene officers stop the car on northbound Interstate 5.
Investigators say one man entered the bank and demanded cash, then took off in a Toyota Tercel driven by a second man.
McCulley says officers arrested 54-year-old Robert Allen Little and 31-year-old Matthew Little.

Sun Pharma continued with its trend of logging a strong performance in the September quarter - thanks again to the two one-off items i.e. sales of oncology drug Lipodox in the US and a favourable currency movement. With Caraco resuming manufacturing at its facilities in Michigan, the company is likely to gradually recover its losses in revenues.
The company posted a sequentially improved performance with a growth of 15% in revenues in the domestic business. This is likely to improve in the second half of the fiscal. There are nevertheless two concerns that stand out from the company's performance in the quarter. One pertains to the Rs 584-crore provision made towards potential damages in respect of patent infringement litigation related to the generic version of Wyeth's drug Protonix. The second is related to the early signs of weakness in Taro's performance in the form of declining volumes.

"A Destination Wedding in Negril" Negril by AnneAlex
Negril Travel Guide: 454 reviews and 1,032 photos
The setting for this Jamaican wedding experience was the beautiful rustic and luxurious Rockhouse Hotel perched on the western cliffs of Negril, Jamaica. Ample room for guests of various price points, plenty of upscale amenities, and a friendly atmosphere with great service. When not participating in the wedding, we also spent a few days exploring downtown Negril as well as the West End and neighborhoods. We were happy to find that the local language was English and that the water was clean and drinkable straight from the tap. There were also a few "colorful" experiences, which are shared in the dangers, but overall a very pleasing and relaxing experience.
A great place to enjoy a holistic spa experience infused with natural and organic ingredients, nestled in the middle of the Rockhouse Hotel, or enjoy an open air massage on a private cliff bungalo.
Delicious food with a fusion of local and international flavors. Freshly prepared and available early morning through late evening.
- Pros:drinkable water from the tap, English speaking country, friendly natives, accepts US currency
- Cons:pushy taxi drivers, drug dealers, chiggers and mosquitos
- In a nutshell:A rustic paradise with plenty of places to enjoy private escape.

For vaccination schedules to vary with Peds? Cause I see a lot of people talking about their baby getting shots at their one year check up and from what I understand Corwin won't be getting another round of shots till he's 18 months. I believe that is when he will be getting his MMR and all that. I was just curious about that.
Also I am still not sure about the flu shot for him. The only reason is because both my Dad and I have a really bad reaction to the flu shot. As in we both get sick when we get it. I know we aren't actually getting the flu, but we get symptoms of illness and sometimes I get a rash where I got the shot. So I think I will wait to talk to his doctor about that one.

Originally posted on Football Nation | Last updated 5/31/12
During this MLB season, fans have witnessed several rather rare feats on the field, including a perfect game and a 4-homer game. Either of these accomplishments, and many more (a triple play or four stolen bases in a game, etc.), have the potential to occur during any given game. The possibility is there, but it's difficult to achieve. Football has many rare accomplishments as well, and some plateaus still waiting to be reached (such as 600 yards passing in a game). Here are some of those rare feats from the NFL gridiron, taken in context of how recently they have occurred. 250-YARD RUSHING GAMES Accomplished: 12 times in NFL history The Record: 296 (Adrian Peterson, 2007) Perhaps surprisingly, eight of the top 10 individual-game totals have occurred since 2000, including the top four on the list (Peterson; Jamal Lewis, 295; Jerome Harrison, 286; Corey Dillon, 278). Unlike the 500-yard passing list, one player has accomplished this feat more than once; O.J. Simpson r...

Jul 2015 - $19.00
Sites are $19 per day plus $48 in fees for out of state residents. We had to pay $31 for an annual pass for our toad (or $9 per day). Then another $9 to get our motorhome in and a $8 reservation fee. No fee for same day reservations at the CG. So most of the local folks just drive up for a site. This gives the park somewhat of a first come, first served for site selection. In our 12 day stay, the CG never filled. The only threaded water connections are at the dump station. The water inside the campground loops are not threaded. We had no problems U-turning back into the dump station upon arrival to fill our tank. People working here are very good, we were able to extend our stay and were allowed in and out to fill our propane tank. TV via batwing was mostly good, Verizon cell and broadband were the same. Overall a nice stay in a good area about an hour from downtown Detroit and The Henry Ford attractions. - Bob and Inga
Jul 2015 - $19.00
We always stay here when visiting Detroit as it is the closest park. There are no private parks in the area. The State of Michigan reservation site is very user friendly and includes a photo of each site. Many of the sites are quite unlevel but all are paved. 30 amp electric is not reliable and be sure to bring an extension cord as it is a long way to the electrical box. Sites are large and the only time it is busy is on the weekends. No water or sewer but dump station is clean & easily accessible. We are a 45 ft motorhome and had no problem maneuvering the campground. Please note that it is not located on Gale Rd as indicated. The campground is located off Teggerdine Rd in White Lake (not Waterford). The beach is located on Gale Rd and is a mile walk from the campground. A State of Michigan Park sticker is required. It is the best place to stay when visiting the area. - Freedom Bus
Aug 2013 - $18.00
This was a good campground for seeing the greater Detroit area. Most of the sites in the west loop are in the trees and very private. We chose site 44 because it was more open. Glad we did because Verizon both cell and 4G struggled inside our rig. The campground was never full even on one of the biggest weekends of the summer, Woodward Ave. Dream Cruise. Everyone was extremely polite and quiet. At night on the weekends it does get a little smoky from the campfires; thank goodness for A/C. The showers are individual with plenty of hot water. The restrooms were always spotless. Sites do vary in levelness so pay attention to what the website description says. A previous reviewer noted that the electric box is close to the pad on the west loop and far away on the east loop. A significant reason to choose the west loop (numbers 1 through 94) with an RV and A/C. The rate was $18 per night. $8.00 reservation fee. Out-of-state: $30.50 non-resident pass good for one year at all MI parks. - fulltimervtravel

I too have the same problem with an engine knock, louder when cold. 97 catera has engine knock,will knock when started up and quiets down once it warms up ,but does not go away entirely. I purchased this car during the beginning of summer and did a tuneup and oil change right away. At that time the car had 103,000 and now has about 113,000. Somehow I think this knock is normal for that engine. The guy at the oil change place made mention of a knock on the Catera without me saying anything about it. It was warm and not making the noise at that time. He suggested that 5w 30 would help with the knocking noise. I did not want to go that route because the last oil change was 5w30 and that caused an issue with oil pressure dropping to low. I have checked around the engine for anything knocking and tightened everything up. Poring SeaFoam into the engine seemed to help as I thought sludge may be the cause. Somehow I think that the knocking noise is coming from a valve lifter on the drivers side, but I am not sure cause I not a mechanic. Am I on the right track or should I not worry about it?

The knock needs to be found, before you have a bigger problem. Just one word of advise, That engine is a Volkswagen engine, could be very costly if ignored.
