Tim Tebow still has plenty of reasons to believe there is a future for him in the NFL.
Just over a third of the projected starting quarterbacks for the 2010 season were not first-round draft picks, including last season's Super Bowl champion Drew Brees. And the company of non-first round picks are pretty promising considering it includes the likes of Tom Brady, Brett Favre and first-time Pro Bowl QB Matt Schaub. Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo entered the NFL as a free agent before his career skyrocketed.
And considering the list of past top draft picks (Jason Campbell, Alex Smith and Matt Leinartto name a few), I'd say Tebow has a 50-50 chance to be a success or a bust.
Check out the list of top underrated QB draft picks who are now projected starters next season.
No. 250. Ryan Fitzpatrick (Buffalo Bills)
The Buzz:Despite scoring a 48 on the wonderlic (out of 50), the Harvard alum was drafted in the seventh round by the St. Louis Rams in 2005. In his first NFL game in 2005, he replaced injured QB Jamie Martin and took the team from a 24-3 halftime deficit to a 33-27 win against the Houston Texans. Just five NFL QB's are believed to have passed for over 300 yards in their professional debut and the venerable Peyton Manning is included in that company.
No. 199 Tom Brady (New England Patriots)
The Buzz: Brady wasn't always an NFL golden boy. He was drafted in the sixth round by the Patriots in 2000 and was a fourth string QB. He was 1-of-3 passing, for six yards in his rookie season.
No. 194 Bruce Gradkowski (Oakland Raiders)
The Buzz:Gradkowski is vying for a starting QB job for the Raiders just four years after being drafted by the Bucs in the sixth round. He took over the starting spot in Tampa after then-starter Chris Simms suffered a spleen injury.
No. 187 Matt Hasselbeck (Seattle Seahawks)
The Buzz:Another sixth rounder (1998), Hasselbeck started his career as a backup to Brett Favre in Green Bay before Seattle picked up the Boston College graduate in 2001.
No. 168 Marc Bulger (St. Louis Rams)
The Buzz:Bulger was waived by the New Orleans Saints shortly after they drafted him in the sixth round in 2000.
No. 108 David Garrard (Jacksonville Jaguars)
The Buzz:Garrard's was expected to succeed Mark Brunell after the Jaguars drafted him in the fourth round in 2002. But Garrard had to wait for his starting spot after No. 7 pick Byron Leftwich was brought in the following season.
No. 106 Kyle Orton (Denver Broncos)
The Buzz:The injury of Rex Grossman sent the fourth round 2005 draft pick into the starting lineup where he led the Bears to a 10-5 record in games he started. .
No. 90 Matt Schaub (Houston Texans)
The Buzz: Just made his first Pro Bowl appearance this season two years after Atlanta picked up the University of Virginia alum in the 2008 draft. .
No.57 Chad Henne (Miami Dolphins)
The Buzz:Henne was the fourth quarterback chosen from the 2008 draft that saw Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco and Brian Brohm. He earned the backup role to Chad Pennington out of training camp.
The Buzz:Everyone knows the legend that is Brett Favre. But few would have projected his longevity after his rookie debut in 1991 with the Falcons. He was 0-4 in completions that season and had two interceptions.
No. 32 Drew Brees (New Orleans Saints)
The Buzz:Brees can probably relate to Tebow the most out of this list. The two-time Heisman candidate was expected to go in the first round of the 2001 draft, but Michael Vick ultimately was the first quarterback drafted by Atlanta.

Transfer of Power: Does Volusia policy promote football recruiting?
Published: Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 5:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 16, 2012 at 5:40 p.m.
The Mainland and Deltona high school campuses are separated by about a 20-mile stretch of I-4. But on the football field, they might as well be worlds apart.
Quick Fact
Countywide, 11.6 percent of the varsity football players at Volusia's 10 public high schools played out of zone this season.
Source: Volusia County School District
FHSAA Reaction
The Florida High School Athletic Association said it has no rules concerning zoning and leaves that matter to the state's individual school districts.
FHSAA Rule on Recruiting
General Regulation. No school employee, athletic department staff member, representative of the school's athletic interests or third parties, such as an independent person, business or organization, may make contact, either in person or through any form of written or electronic communication or through any third party, with a student, or any member of the student's family, in an effort to pressure, urge or entice the student to attend a different school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.
Contacting a Potential Transfer
In May 2009, the DeLand High football program was put on probation and fined $2,500 by the Florida High School Athletic Association for contact with a transfer. According to the FHSAA, running back Shontrelle Johnson — who was playing at Crescent City — called former Bulldogs coach Kevin Pettis and said he was moving to the DeLand area. The FHSAA said Pettis spoke to Johnson by phone but did not immediately instruct him to go through the school's registrar office. Johnson is now a productive junior running back at Iowa State University. DeLand principal Mitch Moyer said there was a violation but disagreed with the ruling. He said the fine levied was "normally associated with a recruiting violation" and DeLand "didn't commit a recruiting violation."
Perhaps nobody knows that better than Mainland's Quinton Powell, the area's top-rated college football prospect.
The senior linebacker, who plans to play at the University of Florida, said he lives near Pine Ridge High and is zoned to attend Deltona High. But for the past four years, he has commuted to Mainland and played for a program that has been to the playoffs 19 consecutive years. Deltona, meanwhile, has just one victory in its last 26 games — and that was via forfeit.
The 6-foot-1, 190-pound Powell was allowed to attend Mainland after the Volusia County School District accepted his application to the Buccaneers' Sports Science career academy. He is one of 47 varsity football players in Volusia — several of them blue-chippers with college scholarships in their sights — who attend schools outside their zone, according to data from the school district.
While some parents and coaches say the transfers are an avenue to success for student athletes, others say the system is abused and as cutthroat as college recruiting, creating a group of haves and have-nots on the county's playing fields.
And while state rules prohibit coaches from recruiting players from other schools, some area coaches say it happens, and the rules get bent to field a winning team.
"I believe that (recruiting happens)," Deltona head coach Ky Cowan said. "I won't say the schools, but I will say coaches go out and recruit."
There are two processes that allow Volusia County students to attend a school they are not zoned for.
The school district can approve their application for a career academy or they can request a variance.
Academies have existed since the 1990s and are "nationally recognized" programs that "get students ready for post-high school, said Saralee Morrissey, the director of planning for Volusia County Schools.
Each of Volusia's public high schools has at least one academy, and there are 33 total.
A variance is an application to attend a school other than the school you are assigned to for some reason besides academic purposes, said Morrissey. Morrissey said no variances are given for athletic reasons.
Morrissey said there are "many more" academy applications than variance requests.
Countywide, 11.6 percent (47 of 405 athletes) of the varsity football players at Volusia's 10 public high schools are playing out of zone.
As an eighth-grader, Powell said he began to evaluate potential high schools almost as if he were choosing a college. He considered Mainland, Lake Brantley, DeLand, Deltona and Pine Ridge.
His decision came down to that year's Pine Ridge-Mainland football game.
"I said if Pine Ridge won, I'd most likely go to Pine Ridge," Powell said. "If Mainland won, I'd go there."
While a football game helped seal the deal, academics were a factor, his father, Chester Powell said. "When it comes to academics, you can't beat Mainland," he said.
Mainland received a "B" from the state's Department of Education in 2011, Deltona also earned a "B" and Pine Ridge a "D." The 2012 grades have not been released.
Quinton Powell, who said he carries a 3.20 GPA, said he would have been hard-pressed to do better than the Bucs.
"Academically, I feel like it was the greatest decision of my life," he said.
Powell is not alone in using the academy system or a variance to attend an out-of-zone high school.
Two of Volusia's most successful football programs — Mainland and Seabreeze — have the counties' highest number of out-of-zone players on their varsity rosters.
Seabreeze, which missed the playoffs this season for just the second time in seven years, led the county with 23.3 percent of its team — 10 of 43 players — out of zone.
Sandcrabs head coach Marc Beach said that eight of those players were starters. Beach said he doesn't agree with the school district's zoning lines and feels they give his competitors an advantage. He said many of his out-of-zone players grew up playing Pop Warner football together in Ormond Beach but are zoned for archrival Mainland.
Charles Nelson is the Sandcrabs' highest-profile academy exemption and one of the area's most-sought-after juniors. The 5-foot-8, 164-pound running back/wide receiver/defensive back has seven college scholarship offers, including Georgia Tech and North Carolina. He was originally zoned to attend Mainland, but he said he was motivated to attend Seabreeze, in part, to stay with the friends he grew up with. His family has since moved into the Seabreeze district, Beach said.
"Charles said he wanted to join the culinary academy and that he wanted to cook," his father, Charles Nelson Sr., said. "It wasn't about the football for him. He wasn't as comfortable with Mainland because he was friends with so many kids who were going to be going to Seabreeze.''
Mainland, which rallied past Lakeland Lake Gibson 49-42 Friday night in the first round of the playoffs, has 18 percent of its team — nine of 50 players — from out of zone.
Mainland coach Scott Wilson said four of those athletes were "key players," including three from Deltona. All four will likely have an opportunity to play college football, he said.
Wilson did not include Mainland quarterback Cameron Hadley among the four "key" academy players. Hadley enrolled at Mainland via variance, according to Wilson. Wilson also noted Hadley, a former private school standout at Calvary Christian, lives within Mainland's district and was granted the variance after his mother's death.
Wilson, who wasn't the head coach at Mainland but was an assistant under John Maronto when Powell arrived in 2009, said he doesn't approach potential players and added if they approach him, he directs them toward the registrar's office.
"I'm not going to go looking for somebody," Wilson said. "We are going to go with who we have here that has gone through all the proper paperwork."
Trinity Christian quarterback Marquion Lane is a game changer. The 6-foot-2, 175-pound senior has an exciting blend of speed and athleticism.
Lane — who played for three schools (Mainland, DeLand and Trinity) in four years — has 17 college scholarship offers, including Florida State and Miami.
But, according to his father, Marlin Lane Sr., colleges were not alone in making recruiting calls to his son this year. When the News-Journal reported in the preseason that Lane was leaving DeLand and likely transferring to Trinity, Lane Sr. said his phone began ringing.
"I was getting calls from high schools everywhere, even outside of Volusia County," Lane Sr. said. "I had between five and 10 coaches from here call me. It was crazy. I told them I didn't want to do anything that would endanger Marquion. Some of them would just have their players talk to him."
Contacting an athlete enrolled at a public school — Lane was still enrolled at DeLand — while he is attempting to transfer to another public school is against the Florida High School Athletic Association's rules. Lane ended up enrolling at a private school, which did not require an academy application, variance or approval from the FHSAA.
Despite the belief by some that recruiting exists, none of Volusia County's active varsity football coaches has been penalized at his current school. In May 2009, the DeLand Bulldogs — under coach Kevin Pettis, who accepted a job at a high school in the Panhandle in February 2011 — were the last Volusia football program penalized by the FHSAA for contacting a potential transfer.
Scott Surgener, who moved to Florida from Missouri last year and took over a struggling Pine Ridge program, won six games on the field. But he was forced to forfeit five of those victories after he said he self-reported dressing an academically ineligible player.
After two seasons, his overall record at Pine Ridge is 2-18. The Panthers were 1-19 in the two seasons before his arrival.
Surgener, who had one out-of-zone player on his roster this year, doesn't approve of athletes and parents finding loopholes to enroll their children at another school.
"All that is is someone justifying doing it the wrong way," he said.
"We absolutely all know, whether we're willing to stand up and say it — and I will — that kids use variances and academies for athletic purposes. For those that say that doesn't go on, they know that's absolutely not true."
Surgener said the community, the school and the coaches know about the recruiting and that the schools benefiting now are the ones who have always benefited.
"I'm not suggesting that coaches are cheating," he said. "I'm simply saying this is the system that's been created. … There's an elephant in the room, and nobody wants to talk about it because it's benefiting a large number of people."
Unfortunately for Surgener, and Deltona's Cowan, whose team had four out-of-zone players (Cowan said none of the four played this year), things don't appear to be changing anytime soon.
When asked about 11.6 percent of the varsity football players in the county being on a variance or academy application, Saralee Morrissey, the director of planning for Volusia County schools, said that number "sounded low."
Morrissey said there are 1,867 variances or approved academy applications countywide for the entire high school student population of 18,360 (10.2 percent). Varsity football players (47) make up 2.6 percent of that total.
She said the academy concept was "exceptional."
"This is nationally recognized, and we are one of the premier school districts that the Ford Foundation sponsors for its academies," Morrissey said. "It is absolutely what we should be doing for our students in terms of getting them ready for post-high school."
She wouldn't say how many applications are made each year for academies and how many are accepted or denied. But she did say there is "qualification criteria" for each academy.
"I would say with the academy applications, they are primarily looking at the test scores, grades and what kind of courses you have taken," she said.
Some say unless the rules change, parents like Lane Sr. will continue to look for what they feel are the best situations for their children. His sons — Marquion and University of Tennessee starting tailback Marlin Lane — played at five schools combined through their prep careers.
"It's good that there are academies because kids need to transfer sometimes for reasons they can't control," Lane Sr. said. "Some of the kids have a goal to get to college, and it's like a dagger in their heart if they don't.
"That's why they need to do whatever they can to make it. As long as a kid is doing everything right academically, he should be able to go where he wants to go."

A current leading evolutionist, Jeffrey Schwartz, professor of anthropology at the University of Pittsburgh, has recently acknowledged that:
". . . it was and still is the case that, with the exception of Dobzhansky's claim about a new species of fruit fly, the formation of a new species, by any mechanism, has never been observed. The scientific method traditionally has required experimental observation and replication. The fact that macroevolution (as distinct from microevolution) has never been observed would seem to exclude it from the domain of true science. Even Ernst Mayr, the dean of living evolutionists, longtime professor of biology at Harvard, who has alleged that evolution is a "simple fact," nevertheless agrees that it is an "historical science" for which "laws and experiments are inappropriate techniques"by which to explain it. One can never actually see evolution in action."

|Vandals look for road sweep
The Idaho women's basketball team will look for a conference road sweep as it visits New Mexico State for a 5:30 (Pacific) tipoff on Saturday. The Vandals got a 68-60 Western Athletic Conference win at Denver on Thursday, and will try to win two in a row for the first time in more than a month when they face the Aggies.
Saturday's action will be broadcast live online through Watch ESPN at the following link: http://es.pn/wbb-IDAHOvsNMSU. Fans can also follow live stats online at www.NMStateSports.com.
Idaho enters the game with a 5-10 overall record and a 2-2 mark in WAC play after winning two of its last three games. The Aggies are coming off a home loss to Seattle U, which snapped the team's three-game win streak, and are 9-6 overall and 3-2 in the WAC.
Idaho has five players averaging 10.0 or more points in WAC play, led by sophomore Stacey Barr's 17.0. Junior Alyssa Charlston and freshman Christina Salvatore each average 13.5 points during WAC games, freshman Connie Ballestero is scoring 10.5 and junior Addie Schivo chips in with 10.0.
The Vandals are the nation's seventh-best 3-point shooting team, in terms of 3-pointers made per game, and much of that can be credited to Salvatore and Barr. Salvatore's 2.93 3-pointers made per game rank 19th in NCAA Division I and second in the WAC, while Barr's 2.06 rank 114th in the nation and fourth in the WAC.
The Aggies are under second-year head coach Mark Trakh, who went 6-24 in his first season in Las Cruces before getting off to a 9-6 start in 2012-13. Trakh has a career record of 304-217. The Aggies play a lower-scoring brand of basketball than Idaho does, as they score 58.4 points per game and allow just 59.6, while the Vandals average 66 points per game and give up 71.3. Despite the scoring differences, Idaho shoots at a slightly higher percentage than the Aggies.
After facing New Mexico State, Idaho will play its fourth consecutive game against a team entering with a winning WAC record when it hosts Louisiana Tech on Jan. 17 in the Cowan Spectrum at 6 p.m.

James Blake's self-titled album is the only album that matters right now. Listen to it.
James Blake's self-titled album is the only album that matters right now. Listen to it.
no matter where I turn
shut down
shut down
everyone's a runaway
where ya running now?
I'm obviously talking about the post-humous, Pitchfork BNM'd self-titled album by the ragtime and jazz musician James "Eubie" Blake. C'mon, man.
Should check that one out, kind of like Mount Kimbie's Dubstep/Four Tet thing?
Anyway, for me so far:
1. Mogwai - Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will
2. Asobi Seksu - Fluorescence
2010 was a year when not a lot of my favourite bands released a lot of shit, so I was mostly listening to ambient/drone/dubstep shit all year, hoping this year I can get back into more guitar bands haha.
Nothing so far, but March should be awesome with Lasers by Lupe Fiasco and Awesome as Fuck by Green Day.
The stuff I'm anticipating off the top of my head:
Taking Back Sunday (with John Nolan!)
Lupe Fiasco
Twin Atlantic
Bright Eyes
There are one or two others that I can think of who *could* release albums this year, but those are the ones that are either pretty much confirmed or already out there.
Last edited by Dean; 01-11-2011 at 06:26 PM.
*EDIT: Nevermind*
As for albums this year. R3D's album is definitely a plus, even though the leak itself was a subpar rip. But once we get a better rip of the files, I will be ecstatic.
For albums I am looking forward to this year, I am looking forward to:
Rise Against - Endgame (Spring 2011)
Foo Fighters - TBA (Spring 2011)
Get Busy Committee - Opening Ceremony (TBA 2011)
Times Of Grace - Hymn Of A Broken Man (January 18)
R3D - Until We Have Faces (February 1)
Lupe Fiasco - L.A.S.E.R.S (March 8)
1. Times Of Grace - The Hymn Of A Broken Man
THAT is the only album that should matter right now.
Not sure what to anticipate in 2011 except for Red (haven't listened to the leak yet) and Fair To Midland. Only two i'm really excited for right now.
Albums im Waiting for the Most in 2011:
Rise Against - Endgame
Foo Fighters - TBA
Blink-182 - TBA
Beady Eye - Different Gear, Still Speeding (February 28th)
Noel Gallagher - TBA
Coldplay - TBA
The Decemberists (coming January 14th)
that should fill up some time this year
And with words unspoken
A silent devotion
I know you know what I mean
And the end is unknown
But I think I'm ready
As long as you're with me
Can we keep this strictly to albums you've heard that are being released in 2011? These threads always start out this way, and it feels like we should have a "Most Anticipated 2011" so these guesses can go in that thread.
In '07 I think we started the thread a month or so before the year, so we'd have a time to anticipate albums - and then making lists and shit after the year started. For most people, there's nothing really to post at the moment rather than anticipations.
glassjaw's our colour green is the best release i've heard thus far. granted, all the songs off of it have been released prior to '11, but the ep was officially released this year, so i guess it still counts.
Yeah, seriously. How many albums do you guys listen to where there will actually be a "best of" list after 2 weeks? Adding anticipated albums seems like the only way to keep the thread alive or for us other people to have fun with this thread.
How many albums have some of you guys listened to this year, much less think they are actually good? I haven't listened to any yet lol.
I'm looking forward to more How To Destroy Angels and Trent and Atticus' score for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. And Red's third album. That's all I've really been keeping track of.
And, I guess since we're going with anticipations...most/some of these have probably leaked. I haven't checked yet.
Thomas Giles - "Pulse"
Mogwai - "Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will"
Braids - "Native Speaker"
Iron & Wine - "Kiss Each Other Clean"
Talib Kweli - "Gutter Rainbows"
Akron/Family - "S/T II: The Cosmic Birth and Journey of Shinju TNT"
Asobi Seksu - "Fluorescence"
Bright Eyes - "The People's Key"
Gil Scott-Heron & Jamie xx - "We're New Here"
Toro y Moi - "Underneath the Pine"
DeVotchKa - "100 Lovers"
Earth - "Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light 1"
Patrick Wolf - "Lupercalia"
And, y'know, the usual "artist - tba" stuff, like a new Nine Inch Nails album. Dillinger Escape Plan. Tool. Drake's new one. Liquid Swords II, by GZA...
The anticipated and best albums should all be in one thread imo. Just label em properly.
With that said, I'm looking forward to...
Megahertz - Megacy
Lupe Fiasco - LASERS
Joe Budden - The Great Escape
Dr. Dre - Detox
Kanye West & Jay-Z - Watch The Throne
Drake - Take Care
Slaughterhouse - TBA
J. Cole - TBA
Crooked I - Million Dollar Story
Tonedeff - Chico And The Man
Mute Math - TBA
Copywrite - T.H.E. 2nd Coming
Death Cab for Cutie - Codes & Keys
Lupe Fiasco - Friend of the People
Skylar Grey - TBA

I was excited for Watch the Throne, but jesus christ, "H.A.M." is AWFUL.
Yeah I know :/ But I'm still looking forward to it. Hopefully Kanye will do some of the productions.

Miami Dolphins: Not ready for 'spoiler' role yet
Just don't refer to them as "spoilers" yet.
These Dolphins aren't quite ready to accept that label. Sure, their playoff hopes are likely dashed (unless something drastic happens). But the players are taking different approach despite this season being lost.
"Spoiler role, you're insinuating that we're out of it and that we have nothing to play for," linebacker Kevin Burnett said. "And I don't see it that way."
These five games are more than just a chance to upset some team tuning up for the playoffs. The buzz around the locker room today was a group of players still playing for pride. A strong finish could also provide some much-needed momentum heading into next season.
"For the most part, I think people get caught into counting us out, counting whoever's out when the playoffs come," receiver Davone Bess said. " We know we're a football team. We know that we're capable of playing with the upper-tier teams, but obviously our record doesn't show it."
The unfortunate part is the Dolphins are so close, losing four games by three points or less. Take a look at the standings, and they would have every opportunity to fight for a spot in the postseason.
A few notes from today:
–As Omar reported earlier today, expect guard Vernon Carey to play this week against the Oakland Raiders. Carey sustained an ankle injury against the Cowboys, but it appears it looked more serious than it actually was. Coach Tony Sparano said Carey was "day-to-day," but there's no reason to think he won't play.
–Sparano said he is unsure of kicker Dan Carpenter's (groin) status for Sunday.
–Sparano explained the decision to kick the extra point instead of going for two late in the third quarter against the Cowboys. He said it was simply too early in the game to make that decision. Sparano said he usually waits until the fourth quarter before thinking about two-point conversions.

On her simple approach "I probably shouldn't admit it, but for years I used just soap and water on my face. After I turned 50, I finally upgraded. Now I use CeraVe cleanser and a washcloth, and in the morning I follow it with a sunscreen with SPF 60. At night I use La Roche–Posay Nutritic Cream for Dry Skin."
On her natural, fresh face "I am a minimalist in all aspects of my beauty routine. I really don't wear much makeup. In fact, until about a year ago, I didn't even own mascara. I've only very recently become aware of any signs of aging on my face or felt incentivized to do much more than wash and go."
On her (shh!) skin-care secret "I have been studying mindfulness meditation for some time, and it has been remarkable. Perhaps that's why I've been lucky with my skin. The meditation has been scientifically shown to shrink the amygdala, the fight-or-flight part of the brain. This allows you to stay calmer, even in stressful situations—and they do say stress is aging."
On when her skin looks best "When I am happy and at peace—and this most reliably happens when I've just spent time outdoors, connecting with nature. It's my mother's legacy to me: As a young child, I was taught to love and find solace in the natural world, and I find that as I age, I am returning more and more to that quiet, simple way of being."

WY Lawmakers Propose 'Gun Protection' Legislation to Thwart Feds...
By Rich Denison 32 minutes ago
Assault WeaponsThomas Cooper, Getty Images
Several Wyoming lawmakers are proposing legislation designed to protect gun-owners from any potential federal firearm ban. The Firearms Protection Act bill, introduced this week, would make any federal law banning semi-automatic firearms or limiting the size of gun magazines unenforceable within the states boundaries.
Anyone trying to enforce a federal gun ban could face felony charges under the proposal. It also includes a provision allowing the Wyoming Attorney Generals office to defend any state resident against any federal firearm ban.

Women's Wednesday - A Mom's joy and balance of cycling

Cyclocross Sessions with Amy Dombroski
Like cross but want some tips from
the pros and ride with other ladies. Check out
Amy's summer cross sessions
By Kim Gilbert
Does this sound familiar? Cycling can be a time consuming sport/activity and trying to balance it with a family can be challenging but we improvise and make it happen. Dads, moms, partners, we all make it happen. Thanks Kim for sharing!
The morning begins, with me hollering "get your shoes, we gotta get out of here" to my five and seven year old. It's Saturday about ten o'clock, and it's already 80 degrees. Two kids' bikes are in the back of the car
and my cyclocross bike is on the roof. I have three cans of sunscreen, four water bottles, Goldfish, helmets, shoes, extra clothes, and a set of portable barriers. We're goin' to the park.
When my kids were two and three, I visited every playground in a fifteen- mile radius of my house. We were always on the lookout for the longest slide, the biggest sandbox, and the highest climbing wall. I came to know the terrain of each one, intimately, chasing the kids around, so they wouldn't consume too many rocks or discarded bottle caps. I realized that there would come a day where they could play on the equipment without a full-time spotter, and I would become one of those parents who lounged on a park bench and let them explore without the fear they would choke.
Last fall I decided I would take my eight-month-old cyclocross bike to a race. The race I chose was the "women-only" Queens of Cross in Golden, CO. The week before I had watched a few YouTube videos to learn how to mount
and dismount my bike. I tried it a few times before the race, and I knew if worse came to worse, I could stop my bike before a barrier and get off the old fashioned way. If I looked like a beginner, I was racing in a beginner category.
I nearly chickened out the morning of the race. Come on, it's cyclocross, there's, like, 200 races a season, I kept telling myself as I pulled into the parking lot. My stubbornness prevailed over my fear, and I registered for the race. The field was pretty big, about 30-40 Newbies, and I stood there with a group of women who were as freaked out and amped as me. Kids screamed, "Go, Mommy!" from the sidelines, while being restrained by dads. The ref
went over the rules and told us to get ready. The barriers were a joke, but I did successfully clear all of them. I reveled in the course and the dust and the spectators. It was a blast, and it was addicting. I came in ninth.
I went on to do twelve more races that fall; some were incredibly fun, others were painfests, but all made me want to race again the following weekend. Now it's a year later, and I'm preparing for a second season. I knew my
barrier skills needed work, especially after trying to get over some in snow and ice and mud. So with the help of my boyfriend, we built some PVC barriers.
It's back to the park, but I'm not looking for the ideal bench under a tree to observe my two devilish children; I'm looking for the park that has a sand volleyball court, a hard-packed baseball diamond, a soccer field, several picnic tables, a run-up, and a state-of-the-art playground. The kids help to unpack the car, grabbing snacks and water bottles, bikes and helmets, one tries to lug the barriers' bag, while I take down my bike and suit up.
We look like a traveling circus, all we need is a tent.
The kids tear around on their bikes, and I dump the PVC on the ground and assemble the barriers. Their bikes get ditched next to a picnic table as they discover the playground has a piece of equipment that will make them vomit. I
look around, picking the course I plan to "race" on for the next hour, only stopping to check in on the kids and grab a drink of water every fifteen minutes. I can hear and see them the whole time, but we are all playing at
the park!

Loved this, Kim. Very familiar! And it was great to see your fast face in the picture. We raced together often. Glad you didn't chicken out. That feeling is also very familiar. It's a lot of work to tote it all to the race with kids. Always lovely to see someone else out there doing the same. :)

As soon as its first owner departs from the manufacturer's delivery center, a new airplane technically becomes used (or preowned). For various reasons, however, 10 years after an aircraft's final production date is generally considered the milestone separating "newer" used business aircraft from "older" ones.

Fixed-base operations (aka FBOs) deliver essential business aviation services such as fueling, deicing and aircraft shelter, as well as waiting areas for passengers and crew. Some FBOs also feature audiovisual-equipped conference rooms, business centers, snacks and concierge services, while many provide pilots and crews with flight-planning facilities; rooms for resting, showering and movie watching; and courtesy cars.

About 89 percent of preowned-aircraft buyers and sellers work with brokers, according to Amstat, a business aviation market research firm. The question is, why don't the other 11 percent? Without professional representation, you'll likely get less than you could have when selling and pay more than you should have when buying. Not using a broker could cost you many times whatever you'd save by not paying his commission.

Rated 4 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by RusticChic Beautiful Set!!! I reviewed the other pieces as well, and didn't feel like doing a lengthy review on each. The forks has ,my main review. This set is beautiful, durable and one of my favorite world market purchases!!!! January 29, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Leslie23 FANTASTIC! This set of silverware is fantastic. It has a great weight to the handles and feels nice to use. It looks very expensive and is almost an identical match to the ones in WS & PB. It just doesn't have the hefty price tag! I was shocked when someone wrote that their fork of food flipped off their plate and not to buy it. DON'T LISTEN! I'm so glad I finally purchased 8 sets. It is also dishwasher safe - no issues yet. August 1, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by mcnick LOVE the design, but have to return them I bought several pieces of this silverware just before Christmas--we've been using them for a little over three months. There are two adults in our household and we use them almost daily. We do place them in our dishwasher, but the description definitely states they are dishwasher safe. I absolutely love the design. They are a bit wonky to nest together in the drawer, but they have a very nice weight to them and they look way more expensive than they were. Sadly, I recently noticed that almost all the pieces have started to rust at the "joint" where the rough handle meets the smooth part of the utensil. For this reason I will be returning them.

Spotlight for Recruiting ProfessionalsJuly 24, 2013
An employer brand is an organization's reputation as an employer and the image of the company as a great place to work, says Rob Kessler, assistant vice president of employee communications and employer brand for Enterprise Holdings.
"When an organization undertakes employer branding, the 'product' it is selling is the employment experience it offers," Kessler explains. "It is not focused solely on recruitment, but throughout the entire employee life cycle."
A strong employer brand allows you to connect with more of the candidate market by:
To create a strong employer brand, you must differentiate yourself from your talent and industry competition, Kessler says.
"If you don't differentiate yourself, then the candidate's decision would come down to merely pay and benefits," he explains. "Your brand needs to have a deeper connection than that, and help explain why your company is different from all its other talent competitors. Focus on what makes you stand out and provokes an emotional response."
To do so, sell your employee experience. For example, Kessler recommends showing how your company helps people's lives.
"Stand-alone facts are boring and can be confusing," he says. "Let employees share stories, show the workplace, and highlight employee events, rewards, and volunteerism."
Beyond this differentiation, Kessler explains that, to be effective, your employer brand must:
Finally, your employer brand must be adaptable, flexible, and sustainable.
"Who you are as an employer doesn't change unless your culture changes," Kessler notes. "However, how you explain it and bring it to life does evolve since your candidates' and employees' wants and needs change over time."

Results tagged ' Lou Pineilla '
A while back, the balloting for the American League Manager of the Year Award was announced, and (once again) Twins' skipper Ron Gardenhire was the bridesmaid, this time to Mike Scoscia of the Angels. I was not too steamed at this, to be honest, and here is why: I'll start with the positive:
I think that Gardy is a very good fit for this Minnesota Twins ballclub. He preaches fundamentals (a must for a young team, which the Twins will always be under the current economic structure of baseball), keeps a cool head (another "lead by example trait for the youngsters), and is just a good guy, plain and simple. He isn't a complete nutcase like Ozzie Guillen, and he isn't too full of himself like, say, a Lou Pineilla. Since Gardy succeeded a burnt-out Tom Kelly as manager, five division titles (and one near-miss) speak for themselves.
That being said, I didn't necessarily cry myself to sleep at Gardy not getting Manager of the Year for two particular reasons:
First, is his loyalty to certain players (well, one player in particular):
Back when T.K. was at the helm, he always said that as long as he was a major league manager, Dick Such would be his pitching coach. The same can now be said for Gardenhire and Nick Punto. While other players (like Alexi Casilla, for instance) can make one mistake and instantly be demoted to Gardy's "doghouse", a place that is easy to languish in for extended periods of time, Punto pretty much gets a free pass. Though this kind of loyalty is nice in a personable sort of way, I think it gets Gardy in trouble a little bit in terms of on-field potential. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the skipper himself was that same type of utility player back in his playing days with the Mets:
2. The other issue is his playoff-managing style. Instead of "going for the throat", Gardy tends to manage a playoff game like any other regular season game. This was evidenced in the ALDS against the Yankees when Francisco Liriano was the first arm out of the pen in a close Game One against the mighty Yanks. Was he just playing the matchups, or hedging his bet that Frankie could somehow get out of the jam and save the good relievers for later? I have my suspicions it was the latter. Of course, later never happened (and often does not in a playoff series). This was not the first instance of that problem, either.
To re-iterate, though, I think that Ron Gardenhire is the man that the Twins need at the helm right now. He's great at teaching the fundamentals of the game to young players, as well as trying to keep them on an even keel and just play the game in front of them. There's just a few things that could be improved upon…like not already penciling in Punto as a starting infielder and batting ninth.

Spiced Pumpkin Mousse RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
- 1-1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
- 4-1/2 teaspoons cold water
- 3 egg yolks
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1-1/2 cups canned pumpkin
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 18 gingersnap cookies, divided
- In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over water; let stand for 1 minute or until softened. Beat in egg yolks and sugar. Cook and stir over medium heat until a thermometer reads 160° and mixture has thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer to a small bowl; beat until cool and thickened, about 3 minutes. Beat in pumpkin and spices. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until set.
- In a small bowl, beat cream and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Fold into pumpkin mixture.
- Coarsely crumble 12 gingersnaps; sprinkle into six parfait or dessert dishes. Spoon or pipe mousse over the top. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until set. Just before serving, garnish with remaining gingersnaps. Yield: 6 servings.
Reviews for Spiced Pumpkin Mousse
"As far as pumpkin desserts go, I think this was pretty good. The gingersnaps really made it yummy. I wouldn't say this is the best dessert I've ever eaten, but I might make it again if I were trying to use up some leftover pumpkin, OR in the mood for a Fall-ish dessert."
"I made this recipe about a year ago and it was very soupy. I guess I did it wrong because it looked nothing like the picture. I'm also have really bad luck with making deserts. However, the flavor was really good, so maybe I'll try this one again. I welcome any suggestions for getting this to set properly. I also have come to accept that it might just be me :)"
"I followed the recipe for the first two steps, and then let the gelatin/pumpkin mixture set in the fridge overnight. I then plopped the set mixture into my stand mixer to make it smooth again. I substituted a tub of fat-free whipped topping for the heavy cream to lighten it up. It was a classy change from standard pumpkin pie at the Thanksgiving table."
"Delicous! No need for gingersnaps."
"Love this dip! Would recommend."

DeBary man charged with unlawful acts, not sharing HIV status
Published: Tuesday, November 27, 2012 at 8:09 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 27, 2012 at 8:09 p.m.
A West Volusia man is charged with committing unlawful sexual acts and not informing the victim he was HIV positive, according to a Volusia County sheriff's charging affidavit.
Edwin Antonio Flores-Solano was arrested Monday and charged after the victim told authorities he sexually abused her from when she was 17 years old to age 21, according to the report. The abuse started in 2008 while the victim, her family and Flores-Solano were living in New Jersey, the report said.
The abuse continued when the family moved to Deltona in May 2010 and again when they moved to DeBary one year later, according to the report.
When the victim started college in fall 2008, she would often go out to avoid seeing Flores-Solano at home, according to the report. Flores-Solano told the victim's mother she was "going out too much" and persuaded the mother to set an early curfew of 9:30 p.m.
The following year, the victim lived in a dormitory and avoided home, which frustrated Flores-Solano, according to the report. He threatened her that if she told anyone what he did she would not be able to go to college. Months later, the victim moved home after she could no longer afford the dorm.
When the victim found out Flores-Solano had a week off work starting Oct. 15, she told a friend she was worried about what would happen and her friend persuaded her to tell her mother, according to the report. The woman told her mother the day before Flores-Solano's week off started, but the mother took five days to inform authorities because she spent two days crying and not communicating with anyone before moving herself and the children out of the house.
Flores-Solano was diagnosed with HIV in February 2001, according to the report. The victim tested negative for HIV.
Flores-Solano is being held at the Volusia County Branch Jail on $25,000 bail, court records show. He is charged with the crimes starting when the family moved to Deltona.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Both teams did their part on Saturday. As a result, next Saturday has suddenly become big. Huge. Massive.
At Goldberger Field in Providence, the University of Pennsylvania field hockey team put away Brown, 4-0. At the same time, Princeton was dispatching Cornell by the exact same score at the Tigers' Bedford Field.
So now it comes down to this. Next Saturday at 11:30 a.m., Penn and Princeton will meet on the Quakers' new turf, Ellen Vagelos Field. (How new is the facility? So new that they are dedicating it next week.) Princeton is 6-0 in Ivy League play; Penn is 5-1. If the Tigers win, they are once again champions and move on to the postseason. If the Quakers win? They tie Princeton for the title; however, they also get the Ivy's postseason berth by virtue of winning the head-to-head clash.
It is heady stuff for Head Coach Colleen Fink's program, which was just 3-14 overall and 1-6 in Ivy play three short years ago, when she was in her first year leading the Quakers and the current seniors were freshmen. (That was followed by a 4-13 mark a year later.) At 13-3, Penn is one shy of the program record for wins in a season, set by the 1988 NCAA semifinalist team; after that, only the 2004 Ivy co-champions have reached 13 victories in the program's 41-year varsity history.
Penn needed a little bit of time to get started on Saturday, but once the Quakers did they could not be stopped. They outshot Brown 23-10, took 10 of the game's 14 corners, and forced Bears goalkeeper Shannon McSweeney to come up with seven saves (with help from two other defensive stops).
At the other end, Carly Sokach made six saves to collect her second straight Ivy League shutout and third this season (as well as the team's fifth overall in 2013). The junior has a 1.65 goals-against average and an .828 save percentage in league play.
Elizabeth Hitti got Penn on the board with just over 10 minutes left in the first half, scoring an unassisted goal from the right side of the circle. That was the only scoring in a back-and-forth half that saw the Quakers outshoot the Bears, 12-8, but in which Sokach make five of her six saves (McSweeney had just three).
Penn opened it up in the second half. Emily Corcoran netted her 13th goal of the season just 10:36 into the period, again unassisted, from in front of the cage. Jasmine Cole put it away just after the hour mark, scoring a pair of goals just 2:49 apart. Corcoran assisted the first of those goals -- her original shot was rebounded by Cole -- while Julie Tahan had an assist on the second.
Cole, a freshman who started the week leading the nation in goals per game, now has 18 on the season. That is second on Penn's single-season chart, two shy of the program record set by Liz Lorelli in 2003.
Brown fell to 6-9 overall, 1-5 in Ivy League play with the loss.
