Report card: Home court not enough to help USU against Fresno State
Saturday night, the Utah State Aggies welcomed the Fresno State Bulldogs, rekindling an old WAC rivalry.
The Bulldogs pulled away early, and leading the way for the Bulldogs in shooting was senior guard Tyler Johnson, shooting 4-of-6 3-pointers and ending with 21 points.
The Aggies, a normally solid 3-point shooting team, were as cold as the Logan weather, shooting 6-for-21 on the night. The Bulldogs claimed a 34-18 lead in the first half. Aggie fans seemed like this one was far out of reach, and some fans headed for the doors. That is until the Aggies made a roaring comeback to end the half, finishing with a 15-to-5 run.
The Aggies finally retook the lead with 15 minutes to play in the second half after senior Aggie Tenale Rowland made a layup. However, that was the last time the Aggies led the game, because Fresno State reclaimed the lead a few minutes later and held on to it for the time remaining.
A late push by the Aggies kept fans interested, nailing key 3-pointers to keep the game in scoring reach. However, a controversial call with .4 of a second on the clock will leave Aggie fans wondering "what if" as the Aggies fell, 79-76. It's been a theme for most games this year.
Who knew the Aggies had so many guards on their bench. Players who normally don't see playing time played key minutes for the Aggies. Freshman Viko Noma'aea played 10 minutes and freshman JoJo McGlaston played 17 minutes. Normally they are held to five to seven minutes per game, but these two guards should play more often.
Coach Stew Morrill is trying everything he has to spark this Aggie team, and from what these two guards showed last night, they have a chance to do that. It's not coincidence that when the three freshmen — including Jalen Moore — entered the game, the Aggies started their comeback, checking in when the game was down 16-31.
Noma'aea didn't score very many points on the night, only making a jump shot early in the first half. McGlaston surprised a lot of people in the game, and fans questioned why he hasn't played all season. McGlaston ended the night 3-for-5 from the field and shot 2-for-3 from beyond the arc, ending the night with eight points. Maybe Morrill should consider starting these two guards over his senior guards, because Medlin and Rowland played 30 minutes each and only outscored the two freshmen by eight points.
Morrill would be commended if he started the freshmen because it could spark the two senior guards or give meaningful minutes to these freshmen and start a new path for the future. Either way, something needs to be done with this starting guard unit. Right now, it isn't doing anything right for the Aggies. Grade: C
Senior Spencer Butterfield looked to be really off in Saturday's game, attempting shot after shot but nothing seemed to fall. That was until the second half, when he made crucial 3-pointers to get the Aggies back into the game, but the bright side is that Butterfield does so many other things on the court other than just shooting. He ended with six assists and four rebounds.
For sophomore Kyle Davis, it was a nice comeback game. He ended with 14 points, but he even had a better night on the boards, collecting 15 rebounds, five of them on the offensive end. Freshman Jalen Moore didn't do much on the night; grabbing a few rebounds and totaling three fouls. But Moore is playing a position he's not built for yet, and while guarding bigger and stronger players in the post, it was easy to see that Moore was struggling to defend them. Hopefully for next season, Moore gets in the weight room and puts on needed muscle to play down in the post. Grade: B-

Dunno if it's cos it was my first, but I've used it to introduce other newbies too. There's a good and obvious path all the way, no dangerous bits and the views are great and gives good example of what hillwalking in Scotland has on offer. Then again, once you've been to other places the hill isn't such a big deal anymore... Tip; once you've continued to Ben Lawers, descend via the trail leading at the back and along the hills for some easier walking and change of view. If it's cloudy on the summits it may actually provide you with some view at all...

Watermelon is one of those fruits that's synonymous with summertime. From block parties to cocktails, this vine-growing, flowering fruit is featured virtually everywhere. Starring in popular baking blogs to the Food & Arts sections of beauty magazines- watermelon is the deep-red jewel of summer's crown.
Watermelon is thought to have originated in southern Africa, but it's had a long and popular history around the world. Evidence of watermelon seeds were found in King Tut's tomb, and watermelon is even mentioned in the Bible as a food eaten by the Israelites while in bondage in Egypt. Watermelons were even cultivated in China around the 10th century, and today, China is the world's largest watermelon producer.
The word, "watermelon" first made its debut in an English dictionary in 1615, and many travelers to the New World make reference in watermelons being eaten in Massachusetts as early as 1629.
Choosing the right melon
Watermelon selection is an art. Think back to how many times you've been in your local supermarket's produce aisle, and seeing all forms of folks tapping, thumping and smelling these fruits. While everyone has their own method, here are three tips to help you choose a better watermelon:
Look before you touch- use your powers of visual observation to make sure your fruit is free of big bruises, scratches and gashes. The watermelon's skin is the protective layer, and the more intact it is, the better your fruit will be. Generally, riper melons are more symmetrical and darker green in color.
Weight- the riper the watermelon, the more water it will hold. Think back to high school science and density; the watermelon you choose should feel relatively heavier for its size.
The 'G' Spot- or, the ground spot is where the watermelon sat on the ground. If this spot is white or pale green, it might mean that your watermelon was picked too early, and may not be as ripe as you'd expect.
Recipe: Healthy, Watermelon Salad
"Watermelon in my salad?" Granted, it seems a bit strange, but this delicious and sweet fruit is the perfect complement to savory, salty and bitter flavors like balsamic vinegar, olives and feta. This recipe was inspired by my first introduction to this refreshingly light and satisfying salad at ReSette, an Italian restaurant in New York.
I was in Midtown on a disgustingly hot and humid day, and I was looking for something that wouldn't bog me down; the waiter suggested the watermelon salad, and I did my best not to grimace at the thought. I ordered and contemplating calling him over to change my order, but after I took my first bite, I was immediately a convert, and regularly make my own version of this delightful, summer salad at home.
The great thing about this salad is its flexibility; if you're not a fan of balsamic vinegar you can opt for lime or grapefruit juice. Here's a citrusy take on this watermelon salad:
- 3 lb. watermelon
- 2-3 small limes
- 1 small red onion
- 1 cup feta cheese
- 1 bunch fresh parsley
- 1 bunch chopped fresh mint
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4-1/3 cup pitted olives
- Black pepper to taste
- Peel the onion, and cut it into very fine, half-crescents and put them in a bowl with the lime juice.
- Remove the pits from the watermelon, and cut into 1 ½ inch triangular chunks. Cut the feta into cubes and add the watermelon and cheese to a large, shallow bowl.
- Remove the parsley, and give it a rough chop (shouldn't be too fine), and add it to the bowl, add the fresh chopped mint.
- Pour in the onions, lime juice, olive oil to the bowl with the watermelon, feta and chopped herbs. Give it a good, light toss. Sprinkle freshly ground pepper, and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to seal in the flavors, and enjoy!

Oct. 30, 2011
VANCOUVER, Wash. - The Washington State University varsity women's rowing team launched two varsity eights and two varsity fours at the Portland Fall Classic Sunday morning. The Cougars garnered the top spots in both of their respective classes (women's eights and women's fours) en route to posting the top times of the day.
WSU posted the fastest women's time of the day with their varsity eight, which completed the course in a time of 18:03.78. The varsity eight also beat their first Pac-12 opponent of the 2011-12 season, as Oregon State University posted a time of 18:11.04. Also competing in the varsity eight class were Gonzaga University, University of Portland, Willamette University, Lewis and Clark College, Portland State University, and Seattle University.
Later in the day, WSU's second and third varsity eights faired well in the JV eights class with times of 18:19.94 and 19:32.29, respectively. The second varsity eight captured the top time of the JV class, as it defeated Pac-12 opponent Oregon State by over 40 seconds and defeated Gonzaga for the third time this season.
The Cougars also launched two varsity fours at the Portland Fall Classic. The varsity four clocked the top time of their class (women's fours) with a time of 21:12.89. WSU's second varsity four was shortly behind in a time of 21:31.82, the second fastest time of the class. Both varsity fours out-stroked fellow college teams Gonzaga, University of Oregon, and Lewis and Clark.
The women's rowing team will close out their fall season in Seattle at the Head of the Lake Sunday, Nov. 6 against rival Washington.

Just a note. God is the giver of life. He does not make mistakes. We do. Every child is a gift. If your desire is to enjoy the blessings, responsabilites, joys, and heartaches that go along with watching a new born baby sleep, the first steps, hear the words I love you for the first time, graduate from Kinder with a beaming smile, grad from college thanking you, getting married...or you could give that wonderful gift to someone else through adoption. If you would trust God, ask him to guide you, through his son Jesus, He will never let you down. I have had two miscarrages, and I wanted the babies. He helped me through that. God will help you through this too. The Crisis Pregnancy Center 24/7 Hotline (800) 395-Help can help, too. Your "boyfriend" is no friend, of yours or of the baby. My sister was 15 when she got pregnant. She thought of abortion. I talked her out of it. We all helped her. The baby is now 5 and wonderful. I will be praying for you JeniCaberry89.posted 06/14/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
The simple answer is that you should not have an abortion if you don't want to, and frankly, any boyfriend who would put that kind of pressure on you is probably someone you would be better off without. I say this as someone who is strongly pro-choice. It's just that the choice should be yours, and noone else's. You need to make a decision based on your own values, beliefs, feelings, and what you can live with. You shouldn't make it based on what someone else wants.posted 06/16/2012 by Crunchy Frog
17 is a tough age to be responsible for another life. I agree you should find out how far along you are and if you are selfless enough to offer the child a better life through adoption than go for it. As for the boyfriend realize that he may be just as scared as you are about the matter (which is understandable); but bottomline your body your choice.posted 06/13/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
I was in a situation much like yours when I was 18. I know how scary it can be. Bottom line, it's your body. DO NOT let him make the decision for you. Please research what your baby looks like now. Don't let the abortion clinic tell you "it's just a bunch of cells". They LIE. They lied to me but I was lucky enough to have my older sister there with me to tell me the truth. I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if I'd done what the clinic wanted me to do and then found out about the truth afterwards. If you are serious about wanting to have your baby and go with adoption (which I think you are) I'd go for it. There are so many wonderful families out there that would love to share their lives with a little baby like yours. You could be the angel that makes their dream come true. BTW, if your bf really loved you he wouldn't give you that kind of ultimatum. I'd rethink him too while I was at it if I were you. ((hug))posted 06/15/2012 by Mochiball5
I should begin this by saying that I am pro-life, so I am approaching this from my own beliefs (as is everyone else!) While I believe abortion is the wrong choice for many reasons, the worst possible reason to get an abortion is unfortunately also the most common - because the woman feels coerced into it by family, a boyfriend, a spouse, or someone else. I would sit down and list all of your boyfriend's possible motivations for wanting you to have an abortion, and then think about what they say about how he views you. He certainly doesn't see you as an equal, someone to be treasured, cared for, and loved - he likely sees you as an object for his own pleasure, an accessory to a certain kind of lifestyle, social acceptance and standing. The prospect of fatherhood probably scares him to death, but for all the wrong reasons. It takes two to tango, and if he isn't willing to own up to his responsibility in the matter of conceiving your son/daughter, he doesn't deserve you!posted 07/06/2012 by Cadenza0123
When in doubt, don't do it! This is something you will definitely regret if you have an abortion. ADOPTION IS A GREAT OPTION! If he chooses to leave you because you have a mind and chose what was best for YOU and YOUR BABY then he is no boy to keep around.posted 06/15/2012 by EBerlen
My highschool boyfriend of two yrs wanted me to have an abortion. I didn't listen & when I was past the stage for legal abortion he dumped me telling people the baby wasnt his. The babies (twins) were his & Im so glad I didnt listen to him. Anyone who'd ask you to do that doesn't love you. If he did he wouldnt want to destroy a life created by that love. Imagine how you'll feel if you do this & you wind up growing apart & breaking up anyway. If he loves you he will stand beside you no matter what you decide, and it is YOUR choice not his; its your body. If you're not sure, you'll regret the decision the rest of your life, always feel guilty &wonder if you made the right choice. You are this childs mother & if you decide to keep this baby you CAN do it and it'll work out, I've been there. And if you decide adoption is the best option you'll give a childless couple the blessing of a lifetime. Men come & go. Babies are a precious miracle. Do whats in your heart & you'll have no regrets.posted 06/25/2012 by SRP80
I would like to start off by saying, I know what you are going through because I went through with it myself. I gave birth to my first child when I was 16 years old. My choice was to keep my baby because I had an awesome support system. Having a support system is VERY IMPORTANT. If you feel like you dont want to be a mother to this child, then my opinion would be adoption. However, if you think you can do it then have the baby and raise it. You still can go to college and get a degree and have a life, but your life wont be yours completely. You will have to remember that the decisions you make will affect your child. Its a big responsible to be a parent, and just because you are young doesnt mean you cant do it. I did it, my daughter is now 6 years old and I have my bachelors degree in Nursing and working on my masters degree. You will make the right decision. Remember, when making your decision, it's YOUR body, and YOUR life.posted 06/17/2012 by Beautifulmixx22
I am entering my 3rd trimester and am 40 years old. Personally, I have never heard anyone say they were glad they had an abortion. In fact, a few women I know did not even get another chance at motherhood. They never found the right man to have a family with and now it's too late. Pregnancy is not easy, but being 17 you might have an easier time with it than I am. You would make another couple immensely happy if you offered your child for adoption. As for your boyfriend, he is being irresponsible. If you decide to end your pregnancy, do it for you, not him.posted 06/26/2012 by kafehausdiva
I would encourage you to research abortion. There are MANY horrible things they don't tell you because they don't really care about you or the baby. Your baby is alive and moving and has little feet and hands already! I know SO MANY people who cannot have children, two of which are waiting desperately to adopt a baby of their own. I myself cannot have children but miraculously was able to conceive and I had twins! I beg you before you do anything to look up a crisis pregnancy center. They usually can give you a sonogram and many options on giving up the baby. There is a life inside of you! I know at 17 you may feel like the world is caving in on you and expecting so much from you. But I want you to know that God loves you so much that He sent Jesus to come and die so that we can have abundant life and know God- our creator! And He wants you to know Him! Seek Him and you will find the answer to your questions. There is hope in Christ!posted 06/14/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

Bridge Outreach
The New Hope Bridge Ministry began with a passion for the poor. Compelled by the local church's vision, church members were drawn to feed, clothe, and preach the gospel to the homeless under a bridge. The ministry was inspired by a similar ministry in Nashville, TN led by Candy Christmas.
On January 20th, 2007, the ministry began in Augusta under the Calhoun Expressway Bridge at 15th Street. Now operating every Saturday, volunteers set up 250 chairs, food serving tables, a music system, and in the atmosphere of praise and worship the gospel is preached. Through the love of God, a full hot meal, clothing, hygiene products and bags of food are dispersed. Each month 1000+ hot meals are served, 600 hygiene bags are given out, and nearly 1000 items of clothing are given out. Volunteers prepare the hot meals in the kitchen on Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings. They also separate clothing items and stock the food pantry. During the winter months, a team of ladies meet that make hand made quilts for our brothers and sisters to keep warm.
As the ministry continues to grow, so does the need for volunteers. If you would like to assist in the ministry, please contact Roger Gardner at 706.868.6410 ext.18 or email him at email@example.com See the ministry in action for yourself on this video clip.

Every day I am thankful I live in the ever-growing gluten-free dining scene in Atlanta. The list of restaurants with gluten-free options continues to grow as more of them do the research and work to provide safe and creative options. Whether you are looking for gluten-free cookies, tacos, fried chicken, sandwiches, a sit down meal, etc., Atlanta has got you covered and then some.
Here is this month's installment of restaurants with gluten-free options in alphabetical order. Please keep in mind that none of these establishments, except Le Metro Creperie, have dedicated gluten-free kitchens, but they take steps to avoid cross contact during preparation.
- Bartaco - has an entirely gluten-free menu full of freshly made juices and small plates. According to the restaurant, the cuisine is rooted in the Mexican tradition, but it pulls from a broad palate of bold, spicy flavors from Asia, the Mediterranean, and beyond. Eli over at Tone to Atlanta says Bartaco should open its westside location in late June/early July followed by the Buckhead location late this year.
- Chattahoochee Coffee House - is now offering baked goods from Southern Table Provisions. Muffins, cookies, and brownies can be purchased, so stop by and enjoyed a cup o' joe with a locally made gluten-free treat.
- Dakota Blue - is no longer offering Pure Knead's buns for its seven-ounce hormone free and flame-grilled burgers. They have made the switch to Udi's Gluten Free buns, which are dairy, soy, and nut free. There is a $1.50 up charge.
- Larry's Subs - in Norcross is now offering gluten-free sandwiches made on The Cookie Momsters gluten-free, dairy free, nut free, casein free, and egg free eight inch hoagie rolls. The sandwiches can be made with dedicated ingredients and utensils, so be sure to specify how you want the sandwich made. The hoagie rolls are pretty tasty and there is a $2.25 up charge per sandwich.
- Le Metro Creperie - located in Sweet Auburn Market is a dedicated gluten-free restaurant with a wide selection of savory and sweet crepes. Their menu rotates weekly, so check it out before heading over to see what is in store.
- Max's Wine Dive - is set to open in Midtown in May and their menu will include gluten-free fried chicken. I have been told that their menu is still in development and that more gluten-free offerings are coming. I am quite excited to eat their fried chicken because it is their specialty!
- Mellow Mushroom - is offering a new gluten-free crust made by is using Smart Flour Foods, which is also vegan. They have even created a set gluten-free menu that identifies their gluten-free ingredients. Each location prepares gluten-free pizzas differently, so ask when ordering to learn if they are made with dedicated ingredients and utensils in a separate area. No up charge.
- Taqueria del Mar - in Norcross has added Omission Beer to its offerings and they have Angry Orchard Cider too. They offer a full bar and the chips and salsa are gluten free, so stop by and enjoy this great weather on their patio.
- Twain's Billiards and Tap - is serving up burgers on Pure Knead's gluten-free buns. There is no indication on their menu if item are/aren't gluten free, so be sure to ask the server.
- YEAH! Burger - is no longer offering Pure Knead's gluten-free buns and have switched over to Udi's Gluten Free. Udi's buns are dairy, soy, and nut free.
- Yum Yum Dessert Company - will open in Buckhead this month and I just learned they will have a number of gluten-free offerings. They don't specialize in gluten-free goodies, but they have gone that extra mile to ensure they have tasty offerings. Guests can choose from: Macaroons, Chocolate Sparkle Cookies (made with almond flour), Pavlovas and Meringues. It is important to note that the gluten-free goods are baked in a shared environment, but they are made at a different time to eliminate cross contact.
Where is your favorite place to enjoy a gluten-free meal? Share your experiences good/bad if you have dined at any of these restaurants.

The Windows 8-based HP EliteBook Folio looks great on paper, but really loses out on its screen res with just 1366x768. In this day and age - hey, we're in 2013 now - that resolution is just ridiculously low.
It seems as though HP has come to their senses in the new year after a few drinks, and are now set to offer a 1600x900 option to US and European customers starting in early March. There's no information on how much the screen res upgrade will cost, but it shouldn't be too much more than the offering price, maybe $100-$150 extra.

Christie Welsh enters her third season as an assistant coach with the University of Oregon women's soccer program. Welsh, a Hermann Trophy winner and former U.S. National Team member, was one of the most decorated players in Penn State University and Big Ten Conference history.
In the 2014 season, Welsh helped the Ducks achieve a 1.04 goals against average, giving UO their best average since 2006 (third-best average in school history). Oregon was also able to defeat their rivals, Washington, for the first time since 2006, along with having 12 different players score a goal over the course of the season. The Ducks finished the year at No. 74 in the final NCAA RPI – giving the program their highest RPI finish since 2009.
Welsh assisted graduating seniors Abby Steele and Bri Pugh to the honorable mention All-Pac-12 honors, and also Caitlyn Wong to the Pac-12 All-Freshman team. The Ducks also excelled in the classroom, with Wong and Lilly Archer earning Pac-12 All-Academic first-team honors – giving the Ducks two members on the first team for the first time since 2008 – and six other players were Pac-12 All-Academic honorable mention selections.
2013 saw Oregon tally four victories at Papé Field, shutout five opponents and was only twice defeated by more than a single goal. UO secured one of the most notable wins in program history, upsetting No. 12 California 1-0, providing the highlight of the season. It was the second-highest ranked opponent UO defeated in program history.
Welsh came to UO after spending the 2012 season as an assistant at St. Joseph's helping the Hawks to a 9-7-4 overall record. Welsh began her coaching career as a volunteer assistant at Penn State (2004-06) while she was competing with the U.S. National Team. She also worked as a volunteer assistant at Wisconsin in 2011.
A member of the U.S. National Team from 2000 until 2008, Welsh tallied 20 goals over 39 international contests. An alternate for the 2000 Sydney Olympics, she was part of the 2004, 2006, and 2007 Olympic and World Cup training residencies.
In 2005, Welsh helped the U.S. National Team capture the Algarve Cup, tallying a team-best five goals, including the game-winning goal in a 1-0 victory over Germany in the finals.
Welsh was the first Penn State player to earn NSCAA All-America honors in each of her four years, while leading her squad to four-straight Big Ten titles and two Final Four appearances from 1999-02.
She was the first player in conference history to be named Big Ten Player of the Year three consecutive seasons. On the field, Welsh set the Big Ten's record for goals (82), assists (52) and points (216), with her career points mark still standing. She was recognized as the top collegiate player receiving both the Hermann Trophy and M.A.C. Player of the Year honors.
Following her collegiate career, Welsh was drafted second overall in the 2003 WUSA Draft by the New York Power. Leading her team in scoring, Welsh would go on to play internationally for KIF Orebro of Sweden's First Division in 2004 and Olympique Lyonnaise of the French First Division in 2005.
Additionally, she helped the Washington Freedom to the 2005 W-League championship, and the NJ Wildcats to the 2007 title, garnering MVP honors along the way. Recently, she has played in the Women's Professional Soccer League, competing for both the LA Sol and St. Louis Athletica in 2009 and the Washington Freedom in 2010.
A native of Massapequa, N.Y., Welsh led Massapequa High School to the 1997 New York State Championship and earned Parade All-American honors twice. The 1998 Gatorade Circle of Champions National High School Girls' Soccer Player of the Year, she was named an NSCAA All-American as a senior.

ASB – The Vacation of a Lifetime!
Instead of heading to a beach or ski slope with their peers, PSU students and Faculty/Staff advisors spend their Spring Break serving communities throughout the United States.
We anticipate sending three trips out for the March 2016 break. Previous locations have included: Virginia, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Ohio, Alabama and New Mexico. Previous projects have included: working with Habitat for Humanity, Union League Boys and Girls Club, and Aquariums and Animal Shelters.
Check this out! One of our 2014 groups helped with a Public Service Announcement!
All of the student coordinators are previous ASB participants. Meara Cotton, Anna Brown and Hannah Andry are the coordinators for 2015 – 2016.
How Do I Take Part?
ASB groups form early in the fall to allow ample time for fundraising which keeps out of pocket costs low. ASB will begin recruiting at the Activities Fair in September 2015!!! Groups are formed in the fall semester and generally do not add any new participants in the spring semester unless students were on a wait list from the fall.

A Pickled Sunday (2008)
The music video for Katsue's debut single, A Pickled Sunday, starring Montonn Jira and Joni Anwar.
In this tale of a disaffected salaryman, the shadow of a mundane Monday signals the death nell for the hedonism of the weekend past and throws darkness over a lazy Sunday with increasing intensity – casting the protagonist into the bleakness of the mind-numbing, number-crunching 9-to-5 environment of his office, seemingly indefinitely.
Devoid of dialogue and set to a poignant, high-tempo, staccato track that contrasts with passages of long, slow (often static) takes, the growing vexation of the white-collar worker is gently (and sometimes humorously) underscored as he manoeuvres through the desaturated, ostensibly magic-realist world of drab office paraphernalia and brightly dressed jobsworths towards a surprising revelation of tragic irony – proving A Pickled Sunday is as much a critique of the soulless corporation as it is an exploration of a dispirited young man and his outright rejection of the banal.
MarBelle has a strange compulsion to watch as many films as he can get his hands on and find jobs that give him a legitimate excuse to drill filmmakers about their work. Directors Notes is the latest incarnation of this disorder and so much cheaper than film school. Twitter: @MarBelle

Skip a beat to Saratoga
Tuesday, March 05, 2013
I can't
honestly say that it is quite true when people mention how obsessed my generation (and future generations) are with documenting and snapping photos of events that happen. I can�t even explain to you why I do feel the need to document, it�s not like I will forget my memories but never less I love sitting down and writing/talking about/taking pictures of what I have done. I think that part of society is pushing so much towards technology and using everything with computers that our socialization skills are slowly being diminished and replaced with silence.
Rant over haha�Anyways this weekend (four days exactly) one of my best friends and I had a mini excursion in Saratoga, New York. I must tell you that I live approximately twenty twenty-five minutes away from Saratoga and have never really experienced the Saratoga thing. I was greatly blown away by how much culture, friendliness and excitement there is in the heart of Saratoga. I have experienced so many fun new things and now love exploring the town and its nightlife. I figured I�d share some cool things that my friend and I did along with pictures to show you some of Saratoga. If any of you decide to visit out this way let me know and I would be more than happy to show the town to you!
Anyways some fun facts from the trip:
~Friday night we went to our hotel and when we walked in it literally looked like the stairway from the Titanic movie. It had this grand entrance that made you feel�well like royalty. After we settled in, we went to the Racino which was my first casino experience ever and I must say I felt like a kid in the candy store with all of the flashing bright lights everywhere. The racino also had a dance club attached that was playing a live band (unfortunately it was a lot of older folks (no offense) drunk dancing) so we went back to an Irish pub to listen to another live band.
~Saturday we set out to explore the town! There were so many little shops, restaurants and odds and ends stores with statues of horses everywhere (go figure Saratoga is mostly known for the historical Saratoga Raceway). We tried this little what looked like a hole in the wall Spanish bistro that, when you walked in you were blown away by the d�cor and the aromas of heavenly food. Every table was made from old distressed doors and the ceilings were etched with copper designs. We tried some manchengo cheese, tomato bread tapa and it was delicious. They also had these really delicious sandwiches and Spanish wines.
~Saturday night was my friend�s birthday so we headed out to explore the different bars and what they had to offer. The town was full of life and had so many people celebrating the weekend even while beautiful white snow dropped to the ground. I danced the night away, and laid in the snow in a skirt (too much drinks for me woops).
~Sunday was more of a relaxing day where we once again explored the town and went hot tubbing/swimming.
~Monday we did way too much for me to remember. Sunday and Monday are like foggy for me because we did so much that I can�t even remember really.
Funny facts to mention:
~Silver lining playbook was probably one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Not only does it reassure my love for Bradley Cooper but it also makes me love Jennifer Lawrence even more. Boy does she have a rocking body too-I want to work for that! The story itself was very original and the two actors were dynamite together
~Hotel tissue boxes have white tissues and turn to yellow tissues when you get to the end of the box to remind you-how awesome is that?
~Taking pictures with cop cars at night is exhilarating, adventurous and even more fun when you pose touching the car
~Normal friends would help you after you fall upstairs laughing, best friends pull out the camera and take pictures of you.
~Swimming /hot tubbing is no joke. That�s where it lies!
~Never try to get a tattoo during tax return season! Had our first consultation and she is coming back next Thursday to get our first tattoo together
Hope you enjoyed my crazy adventures�and even though I ate like a fatty (yikes) I managed to lose a pound this weekend from all the walking we did

Sounds like a fabulous time. Best time to get a 'deal' on tattoos is after Christmas, because people cut back extra spending.
You do sound like a bunch of fun to be around. Surprised you didn't have the cops cuff you...just for $#its and gigs.

Sounds like a great time!
BTW, it's not just hotel kleenex boxes that change colors towards the end of the box, it's true in the corporate world and other places, too. It's to let the housekeepers/janitors know when to place a new box.

Small world... I graduated from Bethlehem, where did you grow up? I love Saratoga, and even though I don't live in NY anymore I try to make it up there at least once a year during track season if not for a concert at SPAC!

Profile: Archie Comics
By Rik
Coyne, Louis Silberkleit and John Goldwater formed MLJ Magazines and started
publishing in November 1939. The company name was derived from the initials of
the partners' first names.
Coyne (September 15, 1901 – May 1971). Maurice
Coyne had worked with Louis Silberkleit in several publishing ventures starting
with employment from Hugo Gernsback. Maurice Coyne and Louis Silberkleit were
partners in Columbia Publishing. Maurice
Coyne also served as MLJ's bookkeeper and Chief Financial Officer.
Horace Silberkleit (November 17, 1900 - February 21, 1986). Louis Silberkleit had a
college degree from St. John's University, was a licensed registered
pharmacist, he also had a law degree from New York Law School.
Louis Silberkleit was regarded as having an uncanny knack as a circulator
and was known for setting very tight distributions and being an extremely tough
negotiator with printers, distributors and separators. Louis Silberkleit worked
for the pulp chain in the late 1920's. In the early 1930's Louis Silberkleit,
Martin Goodman, and Maurice Coyne started Columbia Publications. Martin Goodman
soon left that company and it was owned solely by Louis Silberkleit and Maurice
Coyne. Columbia was one of the last pulp companies, putting out its last pulp in
the late 50's (only Pines' Ranch Romance ran longer).
Silberkleit served as co-publisher of MLJ with Goldwater. Silberkleit
efforts were focused on the business, printing, separating, distribution and the
financial end of the company.
L. Goldwater (February 14, 1906 - February 26, 1999). John Goldwater grew up as
an orphan in Harlem, New York, as a teen-ager he traveled the country working
odd jobs. Eventually returning to New York, he began working loading magazines
at the docks, before starting at Independent News. Goldwater served as editor in
chief and co-publishers for MLJ. Goldwater was focused primarily on the
editorial end of the business. Goldwater was one of the founders of the Comics
Magazine Association of America, and served as its president for 25 years.
The Comics Magazine Association of America is best know to comic fans for
its Comics Code Authority. He was also a national commissioner of the
Anti-Defamation League.
All of them, Maurice Coyne, Louis Silberkleit and John Goldwater, had met when
they worked at Independent News, for Paul Sampliner. Paul Sampliner, Jack
Liebowitz and Harry Donnenfeld, of DC comics founded Independent News, which was
in turn the distribution company of DC comics.
Louis Silberkleit worked on some publishing ventures with his friend
Martin Goodman who was a founder of Timely/Marvel Comics.
Goodman and Louis Silberkleit, along with Maurice Coyne, were one of the
earliest publishers of pulp magazines, with their company, Columbia
Publications. Columbia published westerns, science fiction, detective, and
romance, pulp magazines. Many of
their writers who went on to become famous got their start working for Louis
Silberkleit at Columbia Publications. Among
these were Harold Robbins, Isaac Asimov, and Harry Sinclair Drago, to name a
Goldwater started his own company; Periodicals for Export, Inc., and he started
buying unsold periodicals, mainly pulp magazines, from publisher Louis
Silberkleit and exporting them for sale abroad. Observing the success of the
Superman character in the infant comic book industry in 1939, John Goldwater joined
Louis Silberkleit and Maurice Coyne in launching a magazine publishing company.
first comic was Blue Ribbon Comics published November 1939; the first issue was
half color with the remaining pages red and white tints. In December 1941 Top
Notch Comics was introduced. Then in January 1940, Pep Comics debuted featuring
the Shield, Americas first patriotic comic book hero, by writer Harry Shorten,
also the companies Managing Editor, and artist Irv Novick. The Shield was the
cover feature for Pep Comics until, March 1944 when Archie became the dominant
feature; the Shield continued in Pep Comics until January 1948. Also of note is
the fact that the Shield predates Joe Simon and Jack Kirby's Captain America by
15 months, and his sidekick Dusty, from Pep
Comics #11, January 1941, predates Bucky by 3 months.
John Goldwater inspired by the popular "Andy Hardy" movies starring
Mickey Rooney; wanted to create a comic about a normal person to whom readers
could relate. He created "America's newest boyfriend", Archibald
"Chick" Andrews. In Pep Comics #22, December 1941 writer Vic Bloom and
artist Bob Montana, published Archie Andrews first adventure. Gloria Goldwater,
John's wife said "He loved Superman and he wanted to create a kind of
opposite to Superman," "Archie was based partly on a red-headed
friend of his named Archie," Mrs. Goldwater said. "He also created
Betty and Veronica. Then he decided Archie needed a real good friend. That was
Jughead. It just grew and grew."
Goldwater created the idea of Archie. However, John Goldwater was not an artist,
so he went to the bullpen and asked the various artists to come up with a
likeness. At age 21, Robert William Montana (Bob Montana) created the likeness
of Archie and continued to draw Archie for 34 years, until his death on January
4, 1975.
Archie's popularity grew MLJ Magazines changed its name to Archie Comics
Publications. In the mid fifties the advent of television caused a the pulp
magazine industry to suffer as television became a dominate form of
entertainment. With slumping sales Louis Silberkleit and Maurice Coyne decided
to discontinue Columbia Publications. Maurice Coyne stayed on at Archie as Chief
Financial Officer until he retired in the 1970's.
Louis Silberkleit and John Goldwater shared the same office, and ate
lunch together for their entire business career.
the early 1970's, Archie Enterprises Inc. went public and just over ten years
later Louis Silberkleit's son Michael and John Goldwater's son Richard took
Archie Comic Publications private. The company is solely owned by Michael
Silberkleit, Chairman and Co-Publisher and Richard Goldwater, President and
L. Goldwater served as Honorary Chairman, a post he held until he died of a
heart attack at his home in Manhattan, February 26, 1999.
over 60 years since the founding of MLJ Magazines, Archie Comics Publications is
a family business publishing wholesome family entertainment. Archie remains a
major market force in the comic industry as a more than 15 million dollar a year
company with only 23 full time employees and 30-40 freelance writers and
artists, selling about 800,000 comic books a month.
The Archie Comics web site receives more than 18 million hits a month.
