Active Child: Nakedly Plaintive
You Are All I See
Tuesday's Pick
Song: "Hanging On"
Artist: Active Child
CD: You Are All I See
Genre: Electronic
Pat Grossi is from New Jersey, has orange hair, and looks like the kind of guy who owns a few skateboards. He used to sing with the Philadelphia Boys Choir when he was little and still plays the harp. These days, Grossi mixes the many sides of his personality using the moniker Active Child, for which he adds synthesizers and dubstep beats to his classical repertoire. A man of apparent contradictions, Grossi splashes his pristine vocals all over Active Child's full-length debut, You Are All I See, and the result is dizzyingly gorgeous.
"Hanging On" is a break-up ballad, but it's the rare variety that chooses maturity over self-pity. When Grossi sings, "I just can't keep hanging on / to you and me," his voice radiates grief rather than anger. Grossi's androgynous vocals prove limber enough to play both of the wounded lovers in this domestic tragedy: Phrases alternate between an arresting tenor and ethereal falsetto. The anthem's naked plaintiveness reflects the futility at the song's core: What do you do once there's nothing left to salvage?
Still, "Hanging On" is ultimately cathartic. As the song begins to fade, a hushed harp lulls the listener back into dreamy gentility — a reminder that even the most painful passages in life can be fleeting.

Broken Arrow The Nienhuis Aquatic Facility closes for repairs
BROKEN ARROW, Okla. - The Nienhuis Aquatic Facility will be closed for safety repairs this weekend.
The public pool located at 3201 North 9th Street was temporarily closed Friday in order to repair their emergency shut-off switch which malfunctioned recently.
The Nienhuis pool will be re-opened as soon as possible once the equipment is replaced and chlorine levels are back to normal.
Recreation and Parks Department said they anticipate the pool will be opened either Monday or Tuesday evening.
Broken Arrow residents can use the Family Aquatic Center at 1400 S. Main Street.

Every Wednesday during the season, NHL.com Correspondent Brian Metzer will provide you with an in-depth analysis of fantasy defensemen in our weekly segment: "On the 'D'-fence." From updated defensemen rankings to guys you should keep a close eye on and much more, Metzer will be your fantasy d-man insider all season long.
Andrew MacDonald may never win a Norris Trophy or finish as the NHL's leading defensive scorer, but he is proving to be a very valuable commodity to not only the New York Islanders but for fantasy owners.
His high-water mark in terms of scoring came back during the 2010-11 season when he averaged .45 points per game, picking up 27 points (four goals) in 60 games. He managed 12 power-play points, posted a decent plus-9 rating and fired 72 shots on goal, all of which got folks thinking he might be a sleeper pick in fantasy leagues heading into 2011.
However, MacDonald would notch just 19 points in 75 games during the 2011-12 season and he began to slide off of the fantasy radar. He would show signs of his prior production periodically, but really never got over the hump in terms of becoming a regular offensive contributor.
That all changed heading into this season when the Islanders lost Mark Streit to free agency and later Lubomir Visnovsky to a concussion. Those personnel changes provided MacDonald with the opportunity to play upwards of 26 minutes per night, including an average of 3:12 on the power play with a pretty formidable group of forwards such as John Tavares, Thomas Vanek and Kyle Okposo.
The 27-year-old is taking full advantage of his opportunities and has notched 22 points (three goals), 10 of which have come on the power play. He is just five points away from setting a new career high in total points and is just three goals away from setting a new mark in goals.
MacDonald is producing .50 points per night and is on pace for 41 points. This spike in production couldn't have come at a better time for him either, as he is set to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season.
The Judique, Nova Scotia native is currently making $550,000 and there are already whispers that the Islanders do not want to risk losing him to free agency as they did Streit last summer. That could have MacDonald on the move at the trade deadline and depending on where he ends up he could be an even more attractive fantasy performer.
The bottom line is MacDonald is owned in just 22 percent of Yahoo fantasy hockey leagues and is currently riding a hot streak that has seen him put up eight points in his past six games. That kind of production may not continue, but he is showing he can be a great depth get for your team, so why not grab him now and reap the benefits of a possible trade later in the season.
Brent Seabrook, Chicago Blackhawks -- Seabrook was a notable snub by Hockey Canada on Tuesday when they announced their 25-man roster for the 2014 Sochi Olympics. That could be a good thing for fantasy owners, as Seabrook was already having a fine season and may want to prove them wrong. He has rolled up 31 points (five goals) on the season, has seven points over his past seven games and is especially valuable in leagues that give credit for hits (108) and blocked shots (76).
Ryan Suter, Minnesota Wild -- Everyone knows Suter is a must-own fantasy player, however he has been criticized a bit in fantasy circles for his lack of offensive production. Well, he turned it up recently to the tune of 11 points (five goals) since our last column before the holidays. He has 14 points in his past 12 games and is playing more than 30 minutes per night more times than not. Get in on Suter while you still can.
Dennis Wideman, Calgary Flames -- Wideman finally returned to the Flames lineup on Jan. 3 after missing roughly a month with a broken hand. His ownership has fallen to just 40 percent while he was on the shelf and he could be a sneaky grab for owners. He plays an average of 3:47 on the power play each game and is averaging .50 points per game. That could be on the rise. We'd suggest taking a flyer on this Flame.
Sergei Gonchar, Dallas Stars -- As you know, we were high on Gonchar prior to his injury, but we are downgrading him for now. It is hard to tell how he will respond during his return to the lineup, which took place on Monday. He skated 18:35 in that game and was a minus-2, with no points and one shot on goal. He was also a notable snub from the Russian Olympic team on Tuesday. Monitor this situation before jumping back in on Sarge.
Jake Gardiner, Toronto Maple Leafs -- Every time we think Gardiner might be taking a step forward he takes a few back, and he should only be used in the deepest of leagues at the moment. He has logged just two points (one goal) over his past 10 games. He is averaging 21:39 minutes per night and has taken 63 shots, but the offense is just not there right now.
Jake Muzzin, Los Angeles Kings -- Muzzin may have 14 points on the season, but that is a bit misleading to fantasy owners. He has actually gone without a point in 11 games, with his last points coming back on Dec. 14 against the Ottawa Senators. Since that time he has been riding the aforementioned scoreless drought, is a minus-1 and has logged 27 shots. We'd look elsewhere for production at this point.
Olli Maatta, Pittsburgh Penguins -- Maatta has been impressive all season long for the Penguins and has earned a spot on Finland's Olympic team. He was recently a healthy scratch, but that was merely a chance to recharge the batteries. There have been dips in his play from time to time, but he is providing some nice depth scoring for fantasy owners by logging six points (one goal) over his past nine games, which has pushed his season total to 13 points (three goals), a plus-3 rating, eight penalty minutes and 69 shots on goal. Maatta is owned in just four percent of Yahoo leagues.
These rankings are based on expectations of the season going forward. The plus or minus for each player is movement based on our most recent rankings -- NR means not ranked in previous rankings. They are based on a standard fantasy league with these offensive categories: G, A, plus/minus, PIMs, PPP, SOG.

For great food, gorgeous scenery and a plan to stay healthy, try the Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge (888-870-2639, biggestloserresort.com) which starts at $1,995 per week) or try one of these other spas.
Green Mountain at Fox Run
Ludlow, Vermont
This female-only immersion program is aimed at women who are serious about managing their weight. Established in 1973 by a registered dietitian, the nurturing one- to four-week program, limited to 42 guests, emphasizes the importance of eating mindfully—that is, slowly and with full awareness—rather than following a highly restrictive diet. Workshops like "Managing Binge Eating" and "Understanding Emotions That Lead You to Eat" help you overcome obstacles to slimming down. A study from several years back said some 50 percent of guests manage to maintain their new weight or are still losing more than five years after their visit. Starts at $3,306 per week.
Cal-a-Vie Health Spa
Vista, California
Celebrities flock to Cal-a-Vie whenever they need a tune-up, and for good reason. The Southern California setting—with 200 acres resembling a small village in France—is breathtaking, as is the service. Fresh workout clothes are delivered to the 30 or fewer guests each morning. The chefs, who focus on locally grown foods, personalize your menu to help you meet your weight goals. Vigorous morning hikes and more than 100 fitness classes are offered. You can also choose from almost 40 different spa treatments, including a bamboo massage and hot-stone foot treatment. Don't want to make any decisions? No problem. Your personal consultant will map out your entire three-, four- or seven-day stay. Starts at $7,695 per week.
Pritikin Longevity Center & Spa
Miami, Florida
Set amid 250 acres of lush tropical gardens at the enormous Doral Golf Resort and Spa, the Pritikin Longevity Center & Spa offers a science-backed approach that stresses fiber-rich foods low in saturated fats. (Translation: lots of fruits, veggies, whole grains; not much meat or sugar.) You stay in either a standard hotel room or a more expensive spa suite. The week begins with a physical, blood work and a stress test, then a meeting with a trainer to define fitness goals. Stays range from one to three weeks, with an average weight loss of 11 pounds after three weeks. To encourage continued success, Pritikin can ship frozen meals to your home. Starts at $4,500 per week.

Move from summer to fall with grace in this Rebecca Taylor Shadow Daisy Tie Front Dress ($335). It's got a great vintage print and a neutral-enough shade of pink to wear on a cooler summer day with sandals, or a warmer fall day with tights. Maybe the crossover of season will help us justify the price tag because there is definitely no way we could afford to buy this if we thought we'd wear it only a few times a year!

I'm looking for a simple self hosted website monitoring tool. It should be somthing similar to watchmouse.com or pimgdom.com, with a nice UI, colorful charts and so on (Customers like that :)). At the moment we use Zabbix also for HTTP monitoring, but since now our hoster care about the hardware and software monitoring on the machine directly, we don't need Zabbix anymore. For pure http-monitoring zabbix or an other monitoring suite is really an overkill.
So what I'm not looking for is:
Zabbix Nagios Hyperic .... Sadly but the truth, after some hours of researching I wasn't able to find a fitting application. My hope is now on you.
Thanks in advance.

text: Want to thank everyone for the great welcome I received from all over these United States. From growing up in the country and being in the Marine Corp, I have been around guns all my life. Even as a pastor of a church, I still enjoy hunting and guns. For those who want to say that Jesus did not carry a gun, I would like to refer them to Luke 22:36 where he told His disciples to arm themselves. Not for what was happening at the moment but for what was going to happen in the near future. And I believe this for today.

Just.Be.Enough. was founded in July of 2011 by Elena Sonnino. The idea for the site came to her as she was swimming laps, training for a triathlon, thinking about the importance of feeling confident and empowered. The truth though, is that Just.Be.Enough. is a result of the voices of many that have risen up to believe in the power of being enough.
It all started when she was reading a blog post about accepting ourselves even with our imperfections which led to a link up on her own blog Ciao Mom asking women to create a Things I Like About Me list. The struggle that followed for many was eye opening. The focus on imperfections and flaws had taken seed and had deep roots that were hard to change. But so many women did. And as a result, they walked taller, felt empowered, and took the internet by storm.
Just.Be.Enough. shares the stories, the voices, the truths of many. Its mission is to empower, inspire, and remind us that that the time has come to celebrate ourselves. We must. We must carry the weight of confidence and empowerment on our shoulders instead of allowing the burden of our flaws and imperfections to push us down.
Elena Sonnino is a freelance writer, blogger, instructional coach, runner, cancer survivor, and chaser of dreams. She empowers others to make every moment matter at LiveDoGrow.
Elena spent twelve years as a teacher, educational leader, and mentor to elementary students. Whether she was a classroom teacher or an advanced academic resource teacher, her passion was to empower students to develop independent and creative thinking. She continues to work with teachers now as a coach and mentor, helping teachers improve their practice.
Whether she is empowering women to believe they are enough at Just.Be.Enough or telling the story of living the dolce vita while traveling as a contributor and Internal Community Relations Director at TravelingMom.com, Elena is passionate about fostering self sufficiency and helping others take steps to live.do.grow.
One of the most important factors of Elena's decision to leave teaching after twelve years was a passion for telling the social good story. During a trip to Haiti in January 2012, Elena realized that building capacity meant more than encouraging others to set a SMART goal or go for a run. It meant giving voice to those that wanted to learn and grow so that they could become self sufficient despite the obstacles that stood in their way.
Elena is focused in 2013 to take back control of her Health, to say I Can instead of doubting herself at every turn, and being more of a Risk taker to achieve her goals.
Robin Farr is a woman, a writer, a wife, a runner, a communications professional, a speaker and a mom. At least that's the chronological order of her current roles in life. Having undiagnosed postpartum depression after her son was born in 2008 mixed her up philosophically in quite a spectacular way. She started her blog, Farewell, Stranger, as a way of writing herself out of the lingering effects of PPD.
Through writing about her experience, including the hard stuff like issues with rage that nearly ended her marriage and a breakdown that caused her to take four months off work, she discovered she's not alone in her struggle. The connections she's made with others through her blog have shown her how brutal honesty and self-acceptance can help others.
A fatalist by nature, Robin's motto is "live the life you're meant to." She found the beauty in her breakdown and believes we all have the ability to not only overcome whatever challenges we face but to create something better as a result. And that's the perspective she brings to Just.Be.Enough.
Robin is further exploring her identity and "enough-ness" as it exists within this motherhood gig after the birth of her second child in October 2012. Her three words — Stretch, Balance, and Presence — will hopefully allow her to do that in a way that's positive and allows her to continue learning while still making time for catching episodes of Downton Abbey and eating chocolate.
Robin is the token Canadian on the JBE team. She and her family live in Calgary, Alberta.
Angela has an undergraduate degree in English and an M.A. in teaching. Until her son was born, she attempted to convince middle school students that writing workshops were just as exciting as perfecting the art of texting through your pocket. Angela blogs at Tread Softly where she writes about life one book at a time, melding together a love of reading, writing, and the lovely miscellany making up her world. She adores her freelance position as a writer at AllParenting.com and works to grow and nurture an online community of creative writers as a managing editor at Write on Edge. Nothing Goes Away, her fist collection of short stories, was recently published, and she is always dabbling with another fiction project. Angela and her husband Ryan both grew up in southeastern Michigan and currently live in metro Detroit with their children Abbey and Dylan.
During 2013 Angela is incorporating the concepts of Progress, Light, and Dreaming into her goals and aspirations for all areas of her life. Progress sometimes happens in leaps, but even baby steps forward are a thing to strive for and to celebrate. Light is a two-fold word for her, meaning both clarity and better understanding but also lightness in regards to focusing on the positive and letting mental burdens and worries fall away. Finally, dream. Because all of the goals and aspirations and practical plans are nothing without the magical, sparkling dreams we see when we close our eyes and imagine our lives in their shiniest form.
Kir Piccini
Kir is a book, TV, cupcake and shoe lover who has deep affection for Broadway musicals, NYC and romantic comedies. Kir stared her blog, The Kir Corner, in 2005 after she was diagnosed with unexplained infertility, using it to chronicle her four-year journey through the depression and loneliness of not being able to have a child. It took an online village to get her through the in-vitro fertilization that made her the mother of twins (Giovanni and Jacob) in January 2008. Today she credits that community with getting her through the darkest times of her life.
This year Kir will focus on Nourishing those relationships, hoping to encourage love, support and care with her words. Even the most optimistic people can carry a heavy heart. The past year saw Kir struggling with self-doubt and disappointment, so she will be focused on Healing/Mending those parts of herself that need a boost and inspiring others to do the same.
In 2010 Kir rekindled a love of writing fiction and poetry. Her blog is now full of ongoing works in progress and stories from her imagination. One of her plans is to self publish a novel this summer. But more than that, to embrace the word Novel for what it is: bringing new, contemporary and unique ideas to the page.
And when she's not writing fiction, parenting twins with her handsome husband of nine years or dreaming of shoe sales, Kir is working full time, with children in daycare and her head in the clouds.
Missy Bedell is a woman, a wife, a mother, a writer, a community leader, a blogger, an inactive attorney and a newly inducted member to the 40-and-up crowd. In March 2011 she founded The Literal Mom, a blog that encourages parents to think about their parenting. A thoughtful approach to anything we do in life will make us better, and that is especially true with parenting.
In college, Missy majored in English literature and loved her years of devouring the written word for grades. Somewhere along the way, she thought being a lawyer would be more fun and lost her love of writing for a time, because motions to suppress and compel just aren't that as much fun as they seem on TV. Blogging and parenting reawakened her passion for writing and she's finally learned to "do what you love."
A lifelong perfectionist, Missy had no idea of the sometimes negative consequences this trait could cause until she started seeing her oldest daughter become a perfectionist like her. Just.Be.Enough. is the perfect place to help remind her and others that there is no such thing as perfect. And hopefully, along the way, she will model the "we're not perfect, we're enough" mantra for her girls.
Missy is in her 40s, has been married close to 15 years, has two daughters who are five years apart, and lives in Columbus, Ohio, where it's pretty hard not to be a Buckeye fan, even if you didn't grow up there.
The three words Missy chose for this year are Persistence, Hope and Deliberate. She looks forward to exploring them in the JBE forum in 2013.
Cristie Ritz King is terrible at writing bios because she finds it hard to say what she "is" in a few sentences. In her life she has been an English teacher, a sales director, a writer, a health coach, a doula and parenting educator, a mom, a wife, a sister, an aspiring chef, a reader, a music fanatic, a food lover and a consistently reluctant exerciser. As you can imagine, it's a horror-show creating business cards.
These days, Cristie is a working mom who by day juggles life running a house full of kids with her work as a blogger and holistic health and parenting coach. She helps busy people either have a baby, take care of a baby, feed kids or feed themselves and their kids, lose weight and, best, feel awesome about doing all of it. At night, Cristie usually writes about the madness of her days and then just hopes to catch a shower and an hour of television that makes her laugh.
For all of the chaos listed above, Cristie's three words for the year are Wonder, Focus, and Fun. "Wonder" is because the overwhelm of life can sometimes get to her and Cristie realized that stopping to see the world through the wonderous eyes of her children helped everything to be all right. So her intention is to do more of that going forward.
"Focus"? Well, c'mon, look at the head-spinning list of jobs above. Perhaps focus has been a long time coming.
As for "fun," while life is generally enjoyable, it's mostly just busy and full. A long time ago a therapist told Cristie what she really needed was to remember how to have fun. That advice stuck and now she's committed herself in 2013 to making life fun again.
Cristie blogs all of her adventures in just about everything at The Right Hand Mom, and at Real Life Wellness she talks about food, babies and fitness. She can also be found on Twitter (usually tired, often snarky and often talking about The Today Show in 140 characters or less) at @RitzKing.
Throughout the years, Tricia has had many titles, held many jobs, and jumped into many roles – from barista to account director and everything in between. These days she proudly spends her time focusing on her three favorite roles: writer, mama, and wife. These are the ones that fill her with joy and help her live the life she was meant to live.
In 2011, Tricia founded her blog Raising Humans to capture two amazing journeys of growth that were happening right before her eyes: the growth of her then 1-year-old daughter and the growth of herself as a woman and a mother. Through her writing and community building at Raising Humans, she hopes to inspire other parents to pay attention to those moments – the good and bad, the beautiful and sometimes ugly moments when we realize that we are growing together, side-by-side with our children.
For 2013, Tricia hopes to strengthen, nurture, and appreciate herself, her relationships, her children, and all of the little moments that make up her one, beautiful life.
Tara Roberts
Tara (pronounced Tar-ah and with a southern drawl) lives and plays on the Florida Gulf Coast. A former news and online media reporter, she now spends her days penning eclectic fiction and roaming the woods and beaches of the Panhandle talking to herself and taking photographs. She can be found most days at Thin spiral notebook trying to quiet the voices in her head.
Having recently entered the ranks of the 50-something demographic, Tara struggles with an emptying nest and what she wants to be when she grows up. The mother of two — a 20-something daughter and soon to be 20-something son — she is learning to accept that she can't keep her children babies forever and welcome the changes that come along with redefining her role as a mother and wife.
Tara lives near Destin, Florida with her husband of nearly 27 years, and their 19-year-old son. Their daughter attends graduate school in North Carolina.
Alexa B
Alexa B (who blogs under the name Kat Biggie) is the owner of the blog No Holding Back. She started the blog in June 2012 as an outlet for her grief after losing one of her twin daughters two days after birth to complications from Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS). Since she has always had a passion for writing, it did not take long for her to begin to write not only about living after loss and TTTS, but all things to do with being a stay-at-home mother raising three children five and under. Prior to making the decision to stay home with her children, Alexa worked in Homeland Security and Counter Terrorism, and served over six years in the United States Air Force.
Over the course of 2013 Alexa is focusing on the words Heal, Support, and Balance. The last year has been spent grieving her daughter Kathryn, and it is time for Alexa to allow herself to heal. Through this experience she has learned the importance of support. Not only to her, but the support she hopes to provide to other mothers. While taking care of her children, supporting others, advocating awareness for TTTS, and writing, she knows it will be important to find balance in her life.
Lee Reyes-Fournier
Lee Reyes-Fournier co-writes the highly provocative and informative CoupleDumb.com, The Relationship Blog. CoupleDumb is a relationship site that covers everything from marriage to dating to parenting and everything having to do with creating lasting happiness.
Lee is a professional psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience working with couples, families and addiction. She has been writing about psychological issues professionally for over 10 years. Lee practices what she preaches and has been in therapy and working on her self-effectiveness for years.
Her three words come from her first real breakthrough as to who she really was: A "Walking, Talking Possibility". She looks forward to sharing her experience with these words and how they resonate with her.
Stacey is a 30-something stay-at-home mom to seven children; three boys (13, 10, and 19 months), and four girls (11, 8, 5 and 3). She happily embraces the crazy. In her spare time (or rather, the two seconds in between driving carpools and changing diapers) she is a writer, a runner and an occasional musician. Stacey began blogging five years ago at Stacey's Mothering Moments in an attempt to share the realities of motherhood.
Stacey has recently enjoyed the success of becoming a published writer and continues to pursue her dreams of publication. The challenges of finding personal success while raising seven children have made her efficient at time management. She has also discovered that while being a mom will always be the most important part of her life, having personal success has only enhanced the journey of motherhood.
Stacey's journey on JBE this year will be defined by three words: Laugh, Balance and Tenacity. Laugh because sometimes that's all that is left. Balance because without it we would be lopsided. Tenacity because life requires us to try again and again.
Stacey lives in Utah with her clan and husband of 15 years. They are tormented by the three cats the children suckered them into, a tortoise and two fish (because seven children wasn't enough to keep them busy).
Tracie Nall
Tracie Nall is a writer and homeschooling mom living in Florida with her husband, nine-year-old daughter, and more books than her shelves will hold. In 2006, Tracie started blogging and quickly discovered her love for writing. From Tracie is the place where she shares her heart, and all of the difficult and beautiful things that make life whole.
Tracie is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, and the act of writing about her own story of survival was integral to her healing journey. She manages the monthly Blog Against Child Abuse, which raises awareness about the serious issue of child abuse in all its forms. She believes in the importance of support, the power of speaking out, and the possibility of healing and joy.
When she isn't writing, Tracie spends her time reading, watching far too many movies and TV shows, and trying to get her family to dance and sing with her. She loves office supplies and takes pictures of things that are yellow.
Tracie is embracing Action, Change, and Nurture as the three words to guide her 2013 Just.Be.Enough journey.
SAM is a woman who hid behind a label for a long time. If she's not mom, she's wife. If she's not wife, she's friend, sister, or fill-in-the-blank-here. She spends a lot of time being any label but SAM.
Just.Be.Enough has become a focal point in her journey to rediscover who she is as a woman, a parent, a spouse, and in every other aspect of her life. Without JBE, she wouldn't be able to say "I Can" with more confidence than ever. She'd never know what a wonderful person is lurking behind those labels ready to be set free.
On any given day, you can find SAM hiding behind her fiction at My Write Side, where she will be sharing more of her journey. Both Courage and Completion relate not only to her real life but to her writing goals as well, as she has many unfinished stories. She needs a good dose courage to believe in her writing and begin marketing it for publication. Her words are her strength and her life line. She writes because it's in her blood, and she blogs because she has a story to tell.
SAM's journey is far from over however, and this year as part of the JBE team she is committed to working on Courage, Cherish, and Completion to strengthen her faith in herself and those surrounding her.
Kimberly Rues
Kimberly is a Type-A girl learning that Type A- is just fine (and probably a whole lot more fun). She is a single mother of two teenage sons and struggles to effectively juggle multiple jobs, quality family time, and the occasional date.
By day, Kimberly shares her love of books with children as an elementary school librarian. By night she's a carpool chauffeur, Food Network junkie, and resistant exerciser.
She started her blog, Rubber Chicken Madness, in 2011 with the intent to share her expertise in raising boys as a single mother. Her realization that she was no expert, just a mom trying to be enough, allowed the blog to evolve to be a reflection of parenting while enjoying the ride.
She is committed to finding a way to Breathe – to cushion her world with a little more space, a little more time, a lot less stress. A little red wine and a fresh pink pedicure can only help when things get crowded or crazy.
As the year unfolds, Kimberly will be dismantling the wall around her formerly broken heart, ready to Embrace new opportunities, new people, new joy. With each passing day, she will be taking a moment to find gratitude and Appreciation in everyday moments and extraordinary ones.

Corinne has played many roles in her life, the most recent of which has been that of a registered nurse. From deli clerk to photo lab manager to Navy Reservist, she learned something about herself along the way and often put these lessons into written words. She recently started her own blog, Seeds of Coriander, to have an outlet for what flows through her spirit.
Corinne took comfort in the words of others during past struggles with a divorce and depression, as well as a year-long battle with agoraphobia. Their stories of success and strength helped Corinne to reformulate her own energies and to take the one step forward, which would make all the difference. She hopes to be able to lend her strength to others who may need it now.
Life is a very personal journey. That journey is full of discoveries, whether big or small. Somewhere along the way, we feel like we may have found our Self; perhaps this will happen any number of times. This year, Corinne will focus on three words that are full of all-encompassing exhilaration and new promise: Journey. Discovery. Self.
Corinne lives in Southern California with all of her loves – two cats and a long-time boyfriend. She is happy to have her family nearby, and draws on their support more than they might realize.

College Hockey:RedHawks Rally For Win Over Buckeyes
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State's quick start did little to deter Miami as the RedHawks came from behind to beat the Buckeyes 2-1 in the last game of the season at Value City Arena.
John Albert's goal 40 seconds in gave OSU the very early 1-0 lead, but Alexandre Lacombe evened the score for Miami 15 minutes later and Jared Palmer gave the 'Hawks their 2-1 lead early in the third. Jeff Zatkoff had 31 saves in his 23rd win of the season.
"It was a playoff-type game," said Miami head coach Enrico Blasi. "You have to make plays in games like that, and fortunately for us we made one more play than they did."
It was the third game in five nights for both teams. Miami swept Western Michigan in Oxford by a collective score of 10-1 in two contests, while Ohio State traveled to South Bend to take three points from ranked Notre Dame, outscoring the Irish 5-3 in the two close contests.
"Our young team didn't recover real well from this weekend," said OSU head coach John Markell. "I was concerned about it … because we got home at three o'clock in the morning [Sunday] and obviously the guys, their recovery time, getting back to play a team like this you can't be off five percent.
"It was just the difference; we were just a step off."
The Buckeyes surprised the RedHawks with a goal 40 seconds into the contest. From the OSU end, moments after Lacombe hit the left post, Peter Boyd sent the home-run pass to John Albert streaking right in the neutral zone. Albert skated past RedHawk Vincent LoVerde to the right of the cage and lifted the puck up, off, and over Zatkoff's shoulder for the 1-0 lead.
Lacombe's goal at 15:53 was the result of a centering attempt by Justin Vaive that veered off Buckeye goaltender Joseph Palmer's stick. Kevin Roeder dug the puck out of the left corner behind the OSU net and wrapped it around behind the cage to Vaive. Vaive shot — at the net, at the crease — and Palmer redirected the puck to Lacombe, who popped it past him to tie the game.
Jarod Palmer's game-winner at 5:25 in the third came from a turnover behind the OSU net. Jason DeSantis lost the puck to Andy Miele, who passed out to the waiting Palmer in front of the crease; Palmer one-timed it in for his eighth of the season and the final goal of the game.
Joseph Palmer finished the night with 25 saves as the Buckeyes outshot the RedHawks 32-27. Neither team scored on the power play, with Miami going 0-for-2 and OSU 0-for-3.
The teams will face off again Friday night in Steve Cady Arena for the final regular-season contest for both squads. The puck drops at 7:35 p.m.

There are 45, 60, and 85 watt power adapters for the MacBook line of portable devices (the Air, the Pro, etc.). Does the 45 watt charger which comes with the MacBook Air work with the 15" MacBook Pro for example?
You can use it, but how much actual charging goes on may be minimal. It depends how much power your MBP is drawing (i.e. if you're doing CPU or graphics intensive tasks, you'll draw more power, thus less charging), but I suspect the 45W won't do much more than slow the rate of battery drain. If your MBP is asleep or turned off, it should charge the battery, just slower than the standard charger.
Also note that a Pro with a completely discharged battery will not be able to start up off a 45W or 60W adapter at first - I know from first-hand experience that a 60W can charge a 15" Pro's battery enough after a few minutes to allow booting.

Vacation property in northern Michigan is easier to own than most people think, as lakefront or resort properties allow owners to rent to vacationers to pay for most, or all of the costs.
For example, one can purchase a small condo starting at under $50,000 in a resort such as Shanty Creek, which has ski hills and several golf courses and is located near beautiful lakes and rivers. Property owners can then rent their condos or houses on their own, or through the resort. They can also turn their properties over to a timeshare company. There are advantages and disadvantages to each of these options.
Managing your own vacation property rental
Websites such as as Homeaway.com and VRBO.com make it easy for property owners to advertise and manage their own vacation rentals.
These websites are very popular among vacationers, and advertising property on these websites costs a few hundred dollars per year. The websites are also user-friendly, and even allow property owners to collect Mastercard and Visa payments.
The advantage to this option is that the owner scan control their own calendars, pricing, clientele, and rental rules. They can also block out their own vacation dates, and earn money when they aren't there.
The disadvantage to this option is that it does take work, and homeowners need to be available to respond to numerous phone and email requests. However, there are plenty of handymen and cleaning companies in the area to help the owner when necessary.
Renting property through Shanty Creek Resort
The resort tends to rent out their own hotel rooms first, and they also tend to do better at renting properties that are closer to the center of one of the resort's three villages. Therefore, houses and condos that are not near the village centers often do not get rented.
The advantage of renting through the resort is that the advertising and property management is done by the resort. Homeowners can block their own vacation dates off, but are required to use the resort's cleaning service when they stay.
The disadvantage to renting through the resort is that they take half of the income, in addition to the cleaning fee. In addition, the resort requires certain standards.
Turning vacation property over to a timeshare company
While Shanty Creek Resorts has timeshare properties available, there are also timeshare groups such as Global Connections, Inc. which are looking for northern Michigan properties to lease. This timeshare company is "point-based," and needs properties for their customers who want to use their points in Michigan.
When turning a property over to a timeshare company, the owner usually gets only a couple of weeks per year to use his own property. The rest of the time, the timeshare company has total control of the house or condo.
The advantage to using a timeshare company is that it is very lucrative. Payments are significantly higher than those that can be earned through self-management, or renting through the resort.
A disadvantage is that the property owners can no longer use their homes or condos much of the time. In addition, the timeshare management companies require units to be set up a certain way. For example, each room is required to have a flat screen television, and furniture, dishes and linens must be up to a certain standard.
Which of these options is best for you? Why don't you come up and visit, and Donna Gundle-Krieg will arrange a tour of homes and condos in the area! Call her at 231-350-8507 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

Faux Cherry Blossom Panel
I don't know how this cherry, or as the Japanese call it sakura, blossom panel was made. I just know I Love, Love, Love It! The blossoms could be made of either paper or fabric, and could be die or hand cut. I don't know for sure. What I do know is with some paper or fabric, a pair or scissors and a whole pile of patience you could make something very similar to use as a decorative element in your wedding, for a party or even in your home.
Karen Hsu from Grandiflora was recently on vacation in Belgium when she came upon this window dressing in front of the showroom of world renowned florist Daniel Ost. She snapped a few images to share with me, and I'd like to share them with you.
The close up below shows what appears to be unopened pink and white flower buds are most likely small gobs of some type of wax or plastic wrapped around the bare tree branches.

Wizards of the Coast announced that the Player's Handbook for the fifth edition of Dungeons & Dragons will be released at this year's Gen Con, but if you can't make it, you can preorder the books at Amazon at reduced prices (UPDATED: 5/23):
Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set: Fantasy Roleplaying Fundamentals
Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set: Fantasy Roleplaying Fundamentals ($12.66, July 15)
Includes a 64-page adventure book, a 32-page rulebook for player characters levels 1 to 5, five pregenerated characters (including character sheets) and six dice. There's some controversy as to what's in the box, as lead designer Mike Mearls has said that players will be able to make characters without the starter set, but has yet to elaborate as to how. Morrus at ENWorld has a theory:
My complete wild guess? "You will not need PH or Starter Set to make a character" means simply that there will be an online character builder from launch. That's only a guess, though. On digital stuff in general (including PDFs), Mike said "Sorry, can't talk about that yet - still some issues to iron out on the digital front." Very secretive, but it sounds hopeful. However, it seems there may be more to it than that - "Sorry, we're still finalizing things, but I think we have a pretty nifty plan. The stuff we haven't talked about yet is where DMs and players go next - there's a step between the Starter Set and the Big 3."
Player's Handbook
Player's Handbook ($32.06, August 19)
The Player's Handbook includes character creation (races and classes), advancement, backgrounds, skills, exploration, combat, equipment, spells, and more.
Hoard of the Dragon Queen
Hoard of the Dragon Queen ($23.81, August 19)
The first part of a two-part series, this adventure features the Cult of Dragon, Tiamat, and the Red Wizards of Thay. The PCs join the Harpers and Zhentarim to oppose the cult.
Monster Manual
Monster Manual ($40.55, September 30)
All the monsters for Dungeons & Dragons, including the iconic beasts like dragons, mind flayers, and beholders.
The Rise of Tiamat
The Rise of Tiamat ($24.35, October 21)
The sequel to Hoard of the Dragon Queen, this higher level adventure features a final end game with Tiamat herself. Both The Rise of Tiamat and Hoard of the Dragon Queen were designed by Kobold Press; the company plans to share more information every Tuesday:
From now until Hoard of the Dragon Queen is released to coincide with Gen Con, we'll post more info about the adventures—plus artwork and designer notes—on the Kobold Press blog as a new series we call Tiamat Tuesdays. We look forward to telling you more about this amazing project.
Dungeon Master's Guide
Dungeon Master's Guide ($40.65, November 18)
This book provides world-building tips, tricks, and tools, including magic items and optional rules.

Op-Ed in the NY Times: No choice but to strike
Op-Ed by Ambassador Michael Oren
CRITICS of Israel's campaign to defend millions of its citizens from deadly Hamas rocket fire claim that it lacks a clear objective. Israel has bombed Gaza in the past, they argue, and received only rockets in return. Is there any logic, much less an end, to the cycle of violence? Can it lead to negotiations and peace?
Such questions can be answered only by going back to the origin of the campaign that we Israelis now call Operation Pillar of Defense. It did not begin last week, after Hamas fired more than 700 rockets at southern Israel this year; nor did it start four years ago, as Israel acted to stop thousands of terrorist rockets striking its south. It did not even begin in 2005, when Israel uprooted 21 of its Gaza settlements, together with their 9,000 Israeli residents, to advance peace, and received only Hamas terrorism in return. Rather, the operation began on May 14, 1948, the day Arab forces moved to destroy the newly declared state of Israel.
There were no settlements back then, and the West Bank and East Jerusalem were in Jordanian hands. Yet the very notion of a sovereign Jewish state in the Middle East was abhorrent to the Arabs, many of whom were inflamed by religious extremism. They rebuffed repeated Israeli offers of peace, and instead launched a war of national annihilation. Israel had no choice but to defend itself, losing 1 percent of its population — the equivalent of 3.1 million Americans today — before achieving an armistice.
But few Israelis mistook that truce for peace. On the contrary, most assumed that the Arabs would eventually forget their defeat and seek a "second round." Indeed, eight years later, in 1956, Israeli and Arab forces again clashed, and then fought again in 1967, 1973 and 1982. The periods in between were punctuated by Arab attacks and Israeli retaliations. Subsequently, in Lebanon, the West Bank and Gaza, Israel mounted major counterstrikes against terrorists dedicated to its destruction.
Throughout, Israelis never abandoned the vision of peace. Still, we came to understand that the cause of the conflict was not borders or even refugees but the same hatred of Jewish statehood that drove the Arabs to invade us in 1948. We understood that our enemies required periodic reminders of the prohibitive price they would pay for murdering our families. We also understood that defending ourselves incurred economic, diplomatic and human costs, yet there was no practical or moral alternative. The tactic is deterrence. Our strategy is survival.
Negotiations leading to peace can be realistic with an adversary who shares that goal. But Hamas, whose covenant calls for the slaughter of Jews worldwide, is striving not to join peace talks, but to prevent them. It rejects Israel's existence, refuses to eschew terror, and disavows all previous Israeli-Palestinian agreements — the terms established by the United States and the other members of the so-called quartet of Middle East peacemakers for participation in the peace process. Bound by its genocidal theology and crude anti-Semitism, Hamas cannot be induced to make peace. But it can be deterred from war.
This was the case with Hezbollah in Lebanon. Like Hamas, Hezbollah is an Islamist organization committed to Israel's demise. It, too, ambushed Israeli soldiers on our side of the border and rained rockets on Israeli towns. Then, in 2006, Israel struck back, destroying much of Hezbollah's military infrastructure, neutralizing its long-range missiles, and killing hundreds of terrorists. Hezbollah internalized the message, and since then its missiles have remained inert. The people of northern Israel, meanwhile, have enjoyed six of their quietest years ever.
This does not mean that the tactics of deterrence and the strategy of survival cannot result in peace. Egypt and Jordan tried more than once to defeat Israel militarily, only to recognize the permanence of the Jewish state and to sign peace accords with it. Similarly, the Palestine Liberation Organization, guided by nationalism rather than militant theology, realized it could gain more by talking with Israel than by battling us. The result was the 1993 Oslo Accords, the foundation for what we still hope will be a two-state solution. By establishing deterrence, Israel led these rational actors toward peace.
Unfortunately, Hamas is not rational. It targets Israeli civilians while hiding behind its own. During a campaign of murder and kidnapping in 2006 and 2007, it gunned down members of its rival, Al Fatah, in the streets. Its covenant says Christians and Jews "must desist from struggling against Islam over sovereignty in this region"; under its rule, militants firebombed a Christian bookshop. It celebrated 9/11 and mourned the death of Osama bin Laden. We hope some day to persuade its leaders to make peace with us, but until then we must convince them of the exorbitant price of aggression.
Back in 1948, we envisaged a future of security, prosperity and mutual respect with our neighbors. We still cling to that dream. But we must also remain vigilant and, occasionally, neutralize the rockets and combat the terrorists that target us. President Obama said Sunday in Bangkok that "we're fully supportive of Israel's right to defend itself from missiles landing on people's homes and workplaces and potentially killing civilians, and we will continue to support Israel's right to defend itself." Earlier in the trip, his deputy national security adviser, Benjamin Rhodes, said that Israelis would "make their own decisions about the tactics they use." Those tactics, together with our survival strategy, have helped us to create one of the world's most vibrant and innovative societies, while enabling us to pursue peace.

St. Thomas Aquinas is famous for what are known as his "five ways," or arguments, for God's existence. In the first three ways, Thomas is specifically concerned with cosmological arguments, a class or family of proofs intended to demonstrate the existence of a First Cause or Necessary Being. Today the cosmological argument is often associated with the so-called "kalam" cosmological argument (kalam, or kalaam, comes from the Arabic word for "reason" or "speech"). This latter argument requires that the universe had a beginning in the finite past. What distinguishes the kalam argument from Thomas's cosmological proofs is that Thomas, following the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle, leaves the finitude of the universe's past as an open question. Instead, Thomas is interested in establishing the existence of a First Cause in the order of sustaining causes, as opposed to the order of originating causes. After all, it's one thing to ask why something begins to exist, and quite another to ask why it continues to exist. The originating cause of an oak tree might be someone who planted an acorn, for example, whereas the oak tree has sustaining causes (water, soil, sunlight, etc.) that, if removed, would result in the oak tree's destruction.
Below I will summarize the third of Thomas's cosmological arguments.[1] You will notice that whether the universe's past is finite or infinite is irrelevant to the demonstration.
1. Something presently exists. (Premise)
2. Something cannot come from nothing. (Premise)
3. Either everything that exists is contingent, or else there exists at least one necessary entity N. (Premise)
4. Necessarily, there was never a past time at which nothing existed. (From 1 and 2)
5. Possibly, there was a past time at which nothing contingent existed. (Premise)
6. Therefore, a necessary entity N exists. (From 4 and 5)
Reductio ad absurdum:
7. N does not exist. (Assumption)
8. Possibly, there was a past time at which nothing existed. (From 3 and 5)
9. (8) contradicts (4). (Premise)
10. Therefore, (7) is false and N exists. (From 7 – 9)
Premise (1) is obviously true. As Descartes famously put it, "I think, therefore I am." In order to doubt that I exist, I would first have to exist in order to doubt it! Premise (2) is based upon the metaphysical principle that being cannot arise from non-being. Some have attempted to cast doubt on this premise by pointing to quantum physics, in which fluctuations arise spontaneously. However, this is a misleading objection, since the fluctuations only arise from the energy contained within the quantum vacuum. As Christopher Ray points out, "it is a mistake to think of any physical vacuum as some absolutely empty void."[2] Since energy is something, it follows that quantum fluctuations do not constitute a violation of premise (2).
Premise (3) simply distinguishes between two types of entities. A thing can either exist contingently, in which case it is generable and destructible, or else necessarily, meaning that it exists eternally and is indestructible.
Given the truth of (1) and (2), it follows that there was never a past time at which nothing existed, in confirmation of (4). After all, if there were a past time at which literally nothing existed, then nothing could ever come into existence. That would mean nothing would exist right now, but that of course is false.
Premise (5), however, is especially key to the argument, even though it makes a rather benign statement. Even if some contingent thing or other has always existed, there was still the possibility that all contingent things would concurrently cease to exist. Here's an analogy. If every part of a mountain possibly ceases to exist, then the mountain as a whole possibly ceases to exist. Likewise, if every contingent thing possibly ceases to exist (which is true by definition), then it is possible that the sum total of contingent things possibly ceases to exist.
Now, (6) - which states that a necessary entity N exists - follows from (4) and (5), but it isn't immediately obvious why. That's the reason for the premises beginning with (7). We use something called a reductio ad absurdum ("reduction to the absurd"), which refers to an argument that demonstrates the truth of something by showing that its negation is impossible.
(7) merely assumes for the sake of argument that N does not exist. What this leads to is (8): Possibly, there was a past time at which nothing existed. (8) is true because if N does not exist, and it's possible that nothing contingent exists, then we are left with a possible past time at which nothing at all exists, since contingency and necessity are the only two modes of existence. (The only remaining alternative is for something to be impossible, in which case it cannot exist anyway.) The problem, as (9) points out, is that (8) contradicts the conclusion we arrived at in (4), namely, that there was never a past time at which nothing existed. Thus, (10) concludes that the assumption made in (7) is false. Therefore, a necessary (eternal and indestructible) entity N exists.

What's MORE confusing than trying to figure out WHICH vaccinations your baby needs and when? In the first year alone, your baby will probably get ten different vaccines to protect against fourteen diseases! First up: The Hepatitis B vaccine, a shot that protects your child from the highly contagious Hep B virus, known to cause liver disease or even death. Your baby will get three rounds of the Hep B vaccine at birth, between the first and second month, and between the 6th and 18th months. The Hepatitis A vaccine works similarly and will protect your baby against the liver-infections that the Hep A virus can cause. Between your baby's first and second year, your pediatrician will schedule two shots of Hep A, at least six months apart. Another vaccine, DTaP, protects against three illnesses: diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis. Diphtheria is a contagious bacterial infection characterized by sore throat, low fever, and a sticky membrane on the tonsils, pharynx, and/or nasal cavity that can make it hard to swallow and can result in suffocation. Tetanus, also called lockjaw, isn't contagious, but this bacterial infection CAN lead to seizures, permanent paralysis, and death. Finally, pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is a highly contagious disease caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis; it derived its name from the characteristic severe hacking cough followed by intake of breath that sounds like "whoop." The DTaP vaccine comes in five parts - typically administered at two, four, and six months, as well as between 16 and 18 months and finally between four and six years of age. A fourth vaccine, HIB, protects your baby from the virus known as haemophilus influenza type B, which can cause pneumonia and meningitis. The HIB vaccine comes in four parts and is administered at two, four, six, and between 12 and 15 months. Polio, or IPV, is another vaccine that guards against the poliovirus, which can cause paralysis. The IPV vaccine is given at two months, four months, between 6 and 18 months, and again at 4 to 6 years. Next up is PCV, a vaccine that protects against a contagious bacterium that can cause meningitis, brain damage or death. PCV is administered to your child at two, four, six, and between 12 and 15 months. You'll also want to get your little one protected against rotavirus, the most common cause of vomiting and diarrhea in infants and young children. Several months later, your doctor will recommend that your infant get an MMR, or measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine. While rubella, is slightly less serious, measles could lead to seizures, brain damage, or death. Mumps, meanwhile, is a viral infection that causes painful swelling of the salivary glands, and which can also cause meningitis or deafness in more severe cases. These days, the shot also comes as an MMRV, which offers additional protection against the chicken-pox causing varicella virus. MMR or MMRV is given twice at the 12 to 15 month marker, and again between four and six years. Many doctors also recommend an annual flu shot for your child after six months of age. It can be a lot to keep track of, but these vaccinations can help keep your child safe from some serious diseases!More »

You may want to impress a date
or live a la the Europeans, but your wallet won't let you go wild with wine. Thankfully,
there is a way to tingle your tastebuds while keeping the jingle of change in
your pocket.
To find cheap wine, don't limit yourself to the screw-top
bottles at the convenience store. Good bargains are everywhere -- local wineries,
small liquor stores, national chains and your grocery store.
"Don't be afraid to discover and explore.
It's supposed to be enjoyed," says Gail Bradney,
author of "Best Wines! Gold Medal Winners from
the Leading Competitions Worldwide." "You
absolutely don't have to spend a lot of money."
Find terrific
wines at terrific prices ... by following these tips.
for different varietals (that means "grapes" for us regular folks). Did
you know there are at least a dozen other kinds of wine besides Chardonnay, Cabernet
Sauvignon and white Zinfandel? Don't keep buying those old popular standbys. They're
the most common, and therefore least likely to be a bargain. Yes, you can find
cheap Chards and Cabs, but that won't mean they're good.
more likely to find a good price on a different white wine such as Pinot Grigio
or Chenin Blanc. You can also find a treasure in a bottle of red wine like Malbec
or Shiraz. Besides saving some money, you might learn a thing or two -- even enough
to become a certified wine snob.
Look for different countries.
Yes, France is the home of some of the finest wines in the
world and some of the most expensive. Sure, if you hunt long enough, you can find
an inexpensive and palatable French wine. But save yourself some time by checking
out a lesser-appreciated country, such as South Africa or Argentina. You'll find
some fabulous bargains.
"Find emerging wineries or wine
regions," advises Bradney. "There are some incredible wines from Chile and Argentina.
They're inexpensive because they're trying to break into the market." She says
some of these South American wines may cost less than $10, but they are the same
quality as an established winery's $30 bottle.
You can also
look for less common regions within the U.S. Though California dominates American
wines, nearly every state produces wines. New York and Missouri are two of the
largest producers after California.
Look for winners.
"I only buy gold medal winners," reveals Bradney. Unfortunately,
it can be difficult to find out which wines have won competitions without a lot
of research. That's why Bradney wrote her book. A chapter in her book identifies
Best Bargain Wines that cost less than $15 and have won a gold medal in a tasting
Even if you can't find a particular award-winning
wine, because that year has sold out or it's not available in your area, try another
wine by the same winery. "Some of the same wineries win awards year after year,"
says Bradney. "It's really the winemaker. A good winemaker can work with what
he has."
Look around If you're lucky
enough to live near a winery, you might save some money buying direct. But you
can find bargain wines everywhere. You'll get more expert help at a wine store,
but you'll probably find great prices at the grocery store. And when you find
something you like, better buy more than one bottle. Because before you know it,
that vintage will be gone forever.

John Furbock (Landsham, Germany)
Congratulations on defeating Texas and making your statement by beating the No. 5 team in the nation. You guys should be truly proud of yourselves, your fans are! How could you and your coaching staff motivate your team to play such an outstanding game, especially after last week's loss?
We are blessed to have young men that - a little bit different than a lot of teenagers or young men their age - they occasionally listen to their elders. In this case, we were able to get our young men to listen and understand that they do have the ability to be an outstanding football team. When they apply all of their energy and all of their focus, and come together, we become a good football team. That was the case Saturday against Texas. We did all of those things mentioned and we played an outstanding football game.
Dan Payton (Provo, UT)
What characteristics and attributes are you looking for when you recruit athletes for your program?
All of the qualities or the requirements for Stanford are the first things that have to be met in terms of being admitted to Stanford. There is an admission board that does that. In terms of the football characteristics, contrary to what a lot of people think would be first, would be toughness. It is my belief that when you have a tough person, both mind and body, then you have an athlete that has the ability to win under pressure, win during stress and win during crisis. That (toughness) is number one what we look for. Second of all comes all the physical characteristics - speed, size, athletic ability, etc.
Joe Idone (Windsor, Ontario)
What is the outlook and your impressions of Canadian O.J. Atogwe? How has he adjusted to the American style of ball?
O.J. has done an outstanding job in terms of his adjustment to American football. I think probably the most difficult thing for a young man to adjust to - and it's not just a Canadian football player, but it is any high school player - is to adjust to the discipline and the regimentation of collegiate football along with the information overload that they go through in learning how to play the game and understanding all the schemes that they have to learn. Those would be the things that I think would be most difficult for a young man to adjust to. We're pleased with the transition that O.J. is making to American football.
Dave Fairchild (San Francisco, CA)
Coach, what was the seriousness of (Randy) Fasani's injury and do you expect him to be back by Arizona? Congrats on the huge win!
I must first of all apologize because I will answer this question with basically no answer. It is really not our policy to speak about the specific details of any injury. What we will do is really confine ourselves when we have some information on Randy. Basically, he will be questionable, probable, doubtful or etc., as related to his injury. If the possibility is that Randy will not be with us, then we're very pleased with the progress that Chris Lewis has given us and hope that he will still be able to lead our team to victories.
Aron Bradshaw (Dallas, TX)
Congratulations on the big win! I am enjoying the sorrow of my co-workers today! What a testament to your system to enable a freshman QB (Chris Lewis) to come in and lead the team to victory over a strong opponent. I know he is talented, but were you at all surprised at how he handled himself and what do you do as a coach to make sure a backup is always prepared?
The first thing is that you have to focus on the young person involved. That person has to assume responsibility for his position as a backup and realize that much of his learning has to go through the vicarious process of the first-teamer. We will never be able to give him enough snaps to get him ready as a second-teamer. Therefore, half of his learning is vicarious. The second portion of it will be that in his active snaps he has to really prepare himself and make use of the limited opportunities that he gets. He then has to do a great job in the film study, in the learning of the notebook and all the other things we require from a mental standpoint. So much of it falls on that individual and we as coaches just try to make sure that we have limited situations, but also that the situations are more game-like, to enhance his learning.
Brendan Jamieson (Daly City, CA)
During the non-conference season, I've always been of the feeling that you root for your conference, even for your main rival because it makes the conference look better. If you have three Pac-10 teams in the Top 10 (as you do now), it makes the conference look great, but wouldn't it be harder to draw people away from USC, UCLA and Washington?
It would be very difficult if our program were consistently at the bottom of the conference because at the bottom of the conference, you do not present a challenge to those teams, therefore, the likelihood of trying to invite young people on football alone to your university would be very difficult with the success of the other programs. But, being that we have had success at Stanford, and not just last year with our Rose Bowl appearance but in other years the program has done some awful fine things, I think we have a tradition that lends itself toward a young person really liking Stanford and believing that Stanford can have success not only on a football field, but as well as success that Stanford alums have had out in the professional world. We always root for the other teams (in the Pac-10) to do well because then the goal is to beat them. If you beat them and they're doing well, that means that you're having an awfully great season. That is the design of the program - not to look at things from a negative perspective but always to look at things from a positive perspective.

BubbleWatch: ABC's 'Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution'
SHOW: "Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution" (ABC)
IN ITS FAVOR: The show generated waves of positive press when it premiered and there have been news stories suggesting that Oliver has actually been making an impact. Ratings started off strong and fell, though the show has remained competitive by Friday standards.
AGAINST IT: The phrase "competitive by Friday standards" means that "Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution" is drawing under 4 million viewers.
OUR TOTALLY UNINFORMED GUESS: This show can't be expensive to produce and at the cost and factoring in the adulatory press, you almost can't judge it on its ratings. If Oliver wants to do more episodes, we assume ABC will let him and then try to figure out a programming strategy to draw a few more viewers after the fact.
