Ambien has become the most popular sleeping pill sold. But now some consumers are complaining of serious side effects. On his Feb. 20 talk show, Dr. Mehmet Oz explored whether Ambien can turn into a nightmare. Plus: Get the dish on new low carb noodles for weight loss, including a recipe.
Insomnia can cause problems ranging from weight gain to increased risk of heart disease - but the hottest prescription, Ambien, also present significant side effects, warns Dr. Oz. Among those potential concerns:
- Confusion or brain fog
- Semi-awake state, which has resulted in some patients having car accidents and others gaining weight from "sleep eating"
- Agitation
He invited his guest expert Dr. Michael J. Breus to explain what you should know to use Ambien safely and effectively. Author of "The Sleep Doctor's Diet Plan: Simple Rules for Losing Weight While You Sleep," Dr. Breus emphasizes the following:
- Take the medication as directed before bed.
- Drinking wine prior to taking can cause problems.
- The maximum dose for women is 5 mg.
- Stay in bed after taking Ambien. If you feel foggy when you wake up, the drug has not left your system and you should avoid activities such as driving. The effects usually last seven to eight hours.
In addition, Dr. Breus suggests seeing a sleep expert if you still need Ambien after taking it for a month. It's not meant to be taken long-term.
In another segment on the Feb. 20 show, Dr. Oz revealed the dish on new low carb weight loss noodles. They're ideal if you love pasta but loathe the calories and carbohydrates. Dr. Oz's guest expert Ashley Koff says that these swaps can help you shed pounds without sacrificing your pasta pleasures.
Among the options:
- Miracle Noodle Pasta, which has zero carbs and zero calories
- Miracle Noodle Angel Hair Shirataki Pasta, which have 10 calories per serving
- Gold Mine Kelp Noodles
Try the following Oz-approved recipe for Pesto Pasta Made With Kelp Noodles.
- 1 package kelp noodles
- 1 tbsp raw pine nuts
- 2 cups organic cilantro
- 3 cloves organic garlic
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 2 tbsp organic lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Rinse noodles well, then place in a bowl and cover with water. Let soak for 10 to 15 minutes.
In a small dry hot skillet, toast pine nuts for a couple minutes until they start to brown. Remove from heat and set aside. In a food processor, combine cilantro and garlic and blend while slowly adding in oils, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Continue to blend until it's a smooth consistency. You may have to pause to scrape the sides a few times.
Drain noodles and rinse again, then pat dry in a clean kitchen towel and add back to bowl.
Pour pesto mixture over noodles and toss to coat. Top with toasted pine nuts.

The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman
by Laurence Sterne
The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman Questions
Bring on the tough stuff - there's not just one right answer.
- What's up with time? A stopped clock starts off the whole novel, and Tristram often talks about running out of time to write or trying to catch up with himself. He exists in both the past (the story he's telling) and the present (the story he's telling about telling his story). What does the treatment of time in the novel have to do with the act of writing? The act of writing an autobiography?
- Tristram Shandy is funny. Maybe not laugh-out-loud funny, but some of his dirty jokes and misunderstandings are definitely worth a chuckle. Is the humor random? Would you call the novel a comedy, or is it just incidentally funny?
- S-E-X. Tristram's characters talk about sex a lot, but they do it in an almost clinical way. Walter Shandy schedules it; Uncle Toby's afraid of it; Widow Wadman's desperate for it; Walter Shandy's bull can't do it. What's the relationship between sex, pleasure, and procreation? In a book that celebrates life in all its messy variety, why does everyone get so worked up about sex?
- Penises! Does Tristram just have a dirty mind, or is there something more to all the penis talk? What do penises stand for in the novel, and why is everyone so concerned with them?
- You could say that Tristram Shandy has three major elements: plot, characters, and digressions. How do all three work together? Is one more important than the other?
- Digressions are obviously important to the novel—they're the "sunshine" of reading (1.22.8). How do they fit in with the plot as a whole? How honest is Tristram being about his desire to avoid digressions? Why do digressions matter?
- Hey, you. Tristram likes to talk right at his readers and critics. Think about some modern TV shows, like Lost or Glee, that respond directly to what viewers and critics say. Is Tristram Shandy responding to its readers in the same way? (Remember that the novel was published in parts over a few years—plenty of time for Sterne to read his critics.) What's the relationship between Tristram and his readers?
- At several moments in the novel, Tristram plays with the way that the text looks on the page. He includes a black page when Yorick dies, a blank page for the reader to draw a portrait of his mistress on, diagrams of his story's narrative, and even little hands to point out bits he thinks are particularly important. Are these crucial to the story? Would an audiobook of Tristram Shandy really be Tristram Shandy? How about a film?
- For all the fancy philosophical talk, Tristram Shandy also cares a lot about people's bodies. Tristram spends a lot of time and effort describing exactly how people look, like Walter Shandy's position on the bed after he learns about Tristram's misnaming (2.22.2). What's the relationship between the body and the mind in Tristram Shandy? How does the body affect the mind, and how does the mind affect the body?
- Here's one that scholars like to argue about: did Sterne mean to end the book where he did, or did he just die? We chat about that in "What's Up With the Ending?" but it's definitely a question that's up for debate.

As the war inside Iraq continues, malnutrition is an increasing threat among children. UNICEF is rushing to provide desperately needed food for children under the age of 5.
Since the army of ISIS has launched assaults on Iraqi cities and towns, over one million have been displaced. About half of these war victims are children. Many of these displaced persons (IDPs) have fled into Iraq's northern region of Kurdistan. This region is not only hosting displaced Iraqis, but also over 200,000 refugees from the civil war in Syria.
UNICEF, in a report, says it's distributing high-energy biscuits to children in the Dohuk Governorate located in Kurdistan. The food is a nutritional supplement for "under five-year old IDP children, who are suffering from lack of food and starvation."
Distributing partners include the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) and ACTED. High energy-biscuits are also being provided to children who were fortunate to escape Mount Sinjar. Earlier this month, the advance of the ISIS army had forced thousands of Iraqis, members of the Yazidi religion, onto the mountain.
The U.S. air force responded by dropping food and water to the Yazidis. While many have since escaped the mountain into Northern Iraq, they are still in desperate need of assistance. Displaced Iraqis have lost basically everything and depend on humanitarian assistance from UNICEF and other agencies.
Nutrition is especially critical for small children because they are most vulnerable to the effects of the lack of food. Malnutrition can cause lasting physical and mental damage. So it's vital UNICEF distributes the biscuits and other enriched foods to prevent the malnutrition gaining strength during wartime.
UNICEF is also providing cash assistance to families arriving in the Dohuk Governorate. This will allow them to purchase food in local markets. Dr. Marzio Babille, UNICEF Iraq Representative, says, "While we are massively scaling up outreach activities, cash in hand will immediately empower families to provide their children with basic necessities when market access exists."
The cash assistance program also will help stores in Kurdistan, a region clearly feeling the strain of hosting hundreds of thousands of displaced persons from two wars. UNICEF USA has set up a donation page for the Iraq crisis.

UMass Baseball Drops Series Finale At La Salle, 3-0
March 23, 2014
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - UMass baseball fell in its final game of its first Atlantic 10 series of the season at La Salle on Sunday by a 3-0 score at Hank DeVincent Field. The loss leaves the Minutemen at 3-13, 2-1 in the A-10, while the Explorers move to 4-18 overall and 1-2 in conference action.
La Salle scored its first run of the day in the top of the first. Kevin Baron sent a leadoff single into right and later scored on a fielder's choice ground ball off the bat of Mark Williams.
The Explorers later added a pair of insurance runs in the eighth. Josh Savakinus opened the inning with a single up the middle, went to second on a wild pitch and scored on an error. Joe Monzo, who pinch ran for Joey Ravert after he reached on an error, came in on an RBI single down the left field line by George Smith Jr.
UMass was limited to three hits on the day with the first coming in the fifth inning, a two-out single up the middle by senior Nick Sanford.
The Minutemen later threatened with back-to-back singles by redshirt junior Kyle Adie and junior Paul Yanakopulos to begin the bottom of the eighth, but La Salle reliever Adam Cherry entered from the bullpen and retired the next three batters he faced to quell the rally. Cherry pitched two hitless innings, walked one an struck out two to collect the save (3).
Senior Aaron Plunkett started for UMass and took the loss (0-3). He allowed three runs, one earned, on eight hits, walked four and struck out three over 7.1 innings on the mound. Shawn O'Neill earned the win for the Explorers after working six innings and letting up one hit with four walks and eight strikeouts.
The Minutemen will return to action on Tuesday, March 25, as the team is set to host Holy Cross at 3 p.m.

Twitter Etiquette Part II: Auto-Tweeting Is OK For #FollowFriday/#FF Posting. Feat @jpuopolo & @oatmeal
In this post "Twitter Etiquette: The Do's & Don'ts Of Auto-Tweeting (My Opinion)" written exactly a month ago on January 25th I discuss what I think is OK and not OK if you are going to set up an Auto-Tweet on Twitter.
However, as each #FollowFriday (now more often than not shortened to #FF), passes and I see tons of people who write a bunch of names with the #FF hashtag preceding it I became less and less likely to pay any attention to the #FF tweets. Then, I got a #FF tweet from one @jpuopolo at around the same time as I read The Oatmeal's "How #FollowFriday Is SUPPOSED To Work" comic (I pasted only part of it below to make it a lot smaller because otherwise it would take up this entire page and also that part illustrates what I am talking about.so click the link above to read the entire comic).
Now @jpuopolo is one of those people who, in my opinion, is 'doing it right'. His #FF tweets are always dedicated to one or maybe two people per tweet. There is always a reason given in the tweet why we should actually want to follow that person or why @jpuopolo likes that person or even just something funny about the person to make them into a person and not some random Twitter handle accompanied by a bunch more and a hashtag.
The way that @jpuopolo does his #FF tweets is pretty much exactly what The Oatmeal recommends as the proper/expected way – the way #FollowFriday is SUPPOSED to work. But when I tried doing it one week I found that with the amount of conversations and experiences I have in a week it is sometimes difficult to remember who and why I would like to issue a #FF tweet for when it actually comes to Friday.
This is why I have changed my rules for when it is OK to auto-tweet. I think it is completely legitimate to set up auto-tweets for fully formed and thought out #FollowFriday tweets. This way, when Friday comes not only do you give some credit where credit is due and encourage other people to follow someone who you think is awesome – your #FF tweet is really from the heart because when you wrote it on Tuesday you really were thinking at the time, "Wow, this person rocks…other people should get to experience the fantastamazingness of their Twitter streams!"
One final thing, I asked @jpuopolo: "How do you keep coming up with all these awesometastic #FF? thanx so much!" and pictured below was his reply:
Final Thought: Do you agree that this is a completely legitimate use for auto-tweets?
Have a great #FollowFriday and a great weekend!
To check out my first Twitter Etiquette post from January 25, 2011 click here.
Twitter Etiquette: The Do's & Don'ts Of Auto-Tweeting (My Opinion)
Many posts have been written on this topic but quite frankly I don't think that we will ever reach a true consensus on what is the "correct way" to use social media tools like Twitter. The fact of the matter is that interacting on Twitter is very much like interacting in the physical world on certain levels. What I mean by that is that no one can ever really tell you your method of interacting is 'wrong' because if you go to another country or culture what is socially weird in the first place is the norm in the other. Even social norms in one place can – and do – change over time.
Example: before the 1960's EVERY MAN wore a hat when he went out of the house. There were different styles for people with different jobs but all in all, every man wore a hat when he went outside. As the 1960's developed less and less men wore hats in the Western World. If you re-watch the show Mad Men which begins in the 1960 through until the end of the current season which ends in 1965 you will notice that the main character, Don Draper, wears his hat out less and less as the seasons progress. Before the 1960's it was so expected that men had hats when they went out that places had 'hat checks' along with their coat checks. (I read that as I researched this example, I had no idea about this beforehand!)
My point is we will never be able to tell someone they are using Twitter – or any social media for that matter – 'wrong'. If they can reach their goals doing what they do and using the tools at hand they way they want to use them then that is awesome. It is not up to us to educate them.
That long-winded introduction being said here is when I think it is OK to auto-tweet. If you disagree let me know in the comments! This is just my $0.02, you don't have to agree.
NOTE: If you don't know what an auto-tweet is, it is when you use a program like TweetDeck or HootSuite to schedule a tweet to go out automatically without any interaction from you – or your computer even being on. It is also called a scheduled tweet or an autotweet. Many people do not like them and I have heard many people rant & rail against them while I have seen many other people use them. I follow my own rules as described below for when it's OK and when it isn't OK to auto-tweet.
When It Is OK To Auto-Tweet
- You're a night owl and are browsing the internet at 4am when most of the people you speak to on Twitter are very much asleep. You find a super awesome link that you'd love to share with your Twitter followers but know if you tweet it now by the time people wake up it will be long gone and forgotten in their twitter streams. So you set up an auto-tweet to automatically tweet the link & your comment on it at some point in the morning when you will be awake and available to reply to people who respond to your link & comments.
- Your friend asks you to remind them of something they need to do in hours or days from now or you want to remind yourself to do something. I don't see any harm here in setting an auto-tweet up here. It isn't like you're advertising something for the world to see, it's probably a one-off tweet and if you set it as an @reply no one who isn't following both of you will even see the tweet.
- Sort of like the above two, if you are privy to an awesome deal that hasn't been announced yet or gone live yet but want to let your circle of followers/friends know the second it is available and don't want to forget about it by all means set it up as an auto-tweet. People will be glad to hear about the super awesome deal or product (yes, it has to actually be super awesome not just in your opinion) and so the fact that you aren't present when it is being tweeted is less important.
When It Is NOT OK To Auto-Tweet
- You are advertising something and tweet essentially the same thing over and over again. Twitter will not let you literally tweet the same tweet twice in a specific period of time but changing one letter or word & tweeting essentially the same thing isn't cool either. If you are trying to promote an event how about revealing different details about it within each tweet that links to your RSVP page so that it isn't essentially the same message over and over and over again.
Remember, the above is my opinion and that is all it can ever be. Some people won't give a damn if you auto-tweet, some people won't notice, and some people think it is a violation of their human rights to be subjected to your auto-tweets.
Personally I know a couple of people who auto-tweet and do I really care? No, quite honestly I don't care that much. If you follow and are engaging with enough people on Twitter unless someone is really spamming the same message over and over again it tends to wash over you and you don't even notice. When you do notice you might grin to yourself and think, "Ah, @AutoTweeter is auto-tweeting again" and then you will go on with your day/night.
What do you think about my stance on this? Agree? Disagree? You're entitled and I encourage you to voice your support/opposition/apathy to me.

One of the first questions asked is, "What do I need to begin organizing?" Simply put, cleaning and sorting supplies.
Cleaning Supplies:
Because dust bunnies, debris and stains appear where they are least expected during organizing, individuals will want to be equipped with their preferred cleaners and other possibly-needed cleaners (e. g., carpet cleaner) beforehand. This will prevent having to stop mid-organizing and risk losing "steam" to continue with their organizing goal.
Holders and Labels:
Don't purchase expensive boxes/containers and labels to begin with. These can be costly; especially when an individual usually does not know what size of containers/boxes will be needed or how he/she will label them until later. Instead, using purses, used boxes, crates, duffel bags, backpacks, plastic bags, drawers, or anything else that can hold something will work. Meanwhile, paper cut into squares, attached with tape, will work fine as make-shift labels.
How many holders and labels do people need?
In truth, individuals only need to sort items into five different "holders" as shown here:
1. Out-of-Place: For items belonging to the room working in but belonging in a different section of the room than the one working in.
2. Outbox: For items belonging in another room that somehow grew legs and walked to the room that one is working in.
3. Others: For items that were borrowed from or that is intended to go to someone that does not live inside the home.
4. Keepsakes: For precious items that one comes across that will no longer be displayed in the target room.
5. Trash: A trash bag for those items that will be thrown out.
Note: If an individual ran out of room in one type of container, there are two choices: (1) create another holder for that type of item or (2) empty the item at the dump station into its matching box (see below). If it is not too full, at the end of the day the choices you have are to empty it into its matching dump station box or taking the box around the home emptying it of each room's contents.
Overflow Station:
An overflow station is optional, consisting of at least three large boxes labeled as (1) Outbox, (2) Others, and (3) Keepsakes. Also in the dump station is a trashcan for when a trash bag becomes too full. The dump station can be centralized in the home or room for convenience.

'Un bel di,' by Giacomo Puccini
From 'Madame Butterfly'
Washington National Opera on World of Opera -- 'Madame Butterfly'
Puccini's Madame Butterfly is one of the most beloved operas of all time, so it would be difficult for any one of its many great tunes to outstrip the opera itself. But one of its arias comes close. Cio-cio-san is warned that Pinkerton, her American husband, may never return. She responds with "Un bel di," a song expressing great longing, and great faith, saying that on "One fine day," she'll gaze at Pinkerton's ship sailing into harbor.

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
Electrolux Design Lab, an annual global competition that invites industrial design students to present innovative ideas for household appliances of the future, has announced the results of its 2010 contest, which centered around "Intelligent Mobility." Electrolux directed contestants to design household appliances that "will shape how people prepare and store food, clean and do their dishes, both within and beyond the home. … Additionally, and in keeping with the heritage of Electrolux, your concepts should reflect Scandinavian Design values—being sensitive to the environment, providing intuitive ease of use and aesthetic appeal." The winners are nothing short of inspiring.
Some of my favorites include a BioRobot refrigerator that uses non-sticky, odorless gel to envelop stored food in individual pods; an outdoor refrigerator that uses winter's lower temperature and solar panels in summer to keep food cool; a wall-mounted "eco-system" that creates energy from plants; and BioTank, a pet and a composter that also does the dishes (robotic fish clean the dishes, then turn the dirt and grime into biofuel).
The 2010 winner is a stove that uses a high-density sugar crystal battery to heat food using magnetic induction. Called the Snail, the portable heating device can be stuck directly onto a pot, a pan or a mug to heat the contents. Energy from the sugar heats up a coil, which conducts the magnetic induction process to the utensil. "In addition to being a solution for city dwellers, the Snail offers a wider social potential for use in remote areas, just as the first mobile phone opened opportunities," the Electrolux Design Lab jury stated in presenting the award to Peter Alwin, a student at National Institute of Design in India.

The Benefits of Doing Business in Casablanca
In Morocco, a huge percentage of the country's production comes out of the area known as "Greater Casablanca," which includes the city itself and surrounding suburbs.
44% of Morocco's industrial production, 33% of national industrial exports, and 30% of the Moroccan banking network are concentrated here, according to Casainvest.ma, making Casablanca a key hub for local and international investors and entrepreneurs.
I have often heard from Moroccan entrepreneurs that the Moroccan Regional Centers of Investment (RCI) have done great work to make applying for and setting up a business in Morocco easier, and I can attest that it's true; I personally benefitted from their services when I started my consultancy business a few years ago. As a public administration, the RCI acts as a unique interlocutor for investors in each of the sixteen administrative districts of Morocco.
I spoke with the CEO of the Greater Casablanca RCI, Hamid Ben Elafdil, about the RCI and entrepreneurship in Morocco in general. Check out the interview below:
1) How does the RCI work?
The RCI is a "one stop shop" for all those willing to set up their companies and start their own business in Casablanca and its suburbs. Our mission has a couple pieces:
- To assist entrepreneurs and investors in business creation and setup procedures.
- To provide assistance for new investment projects.
- To support and develop existing investment projects.
- To make Casablanca more attractive for investments.
- To target key sectors to boost the region's economy.
At our RCI, we have committed ourselves, once we receive the completed files, to finish all paperwork within 5 business days. We also provide support and advice to entrepreneurs to help them launch their project.
For investors, we offer full assistance from conception to realization of the project, including in real estate, partnerships, financing and HR. We provide information investors may need, assist them in preparing their investment files, and work closely with the involved administrations to facilitate the process and any follow-up.
We also have a mediation role if problems arise between the investors and an administration.
2) What are the main steps to creating a company in Casablanca?
Today, an entrepreneur can create their own company at the RCI of Casablanca in just 5 steps:
Step 1: Register the company name. A registrant will be provided with a document certifying that no other company in Morocco has the same name.
Step 2: Prepare all the required documents, especially the company's bylaws, the location certificate and a completed application.
Step 3: Schedule an appointment online to submit the files by registering online at www.casainvest.ma.
Step 4: Submit the complete file to the RCI.
Step 5: Within 5 business days, the entrepreneur will be informed by SMS text that their application is completed and is invited to pick up the documents at the RCI.
3) What are the most attractive sectors for investment in Casablanca?
There are 3 major sectors in the Greater Casablanca area, off-shoring, the aero-space industry, and the automotive industry.
4) What about Casablanca attracts entrepreneurs?
Casablanca is the first "multimodal" logistical platform (railway, sea port, airport and motorway) of Morocco with 55% of foreign trade, 80% of overall air freight of goods, and 51% of temporary transactions coming through the district. The city is also the first North-African professional district with more than 1,400,000 m² of officescpace.
There's a very high density of strategic partners including subcontractors, carriers, research departments, and services to companies here too. Casablanca is also a strategic export hub with close proximity and free-trade agreements with the U.S., the EU, Turkey, and the Arab world.
The district is also an R&D center; a pole of innovation and scientific research, with more than 20% of national professors residing around Casablanca, of whom more than 60% specialize in science and engineering. Lastly, Casablanca has a strong HR community thanks to the high quality of training courses provided by 10 faculties, 7 higher education schools, more than 45 private colleges and the first institute for offshoring in Africa.
5) What advice would you give to entrepreneurs looking to start their company in Morocco?
Many entrepreneurs just jump into their startup without knowing the market; take time to study what you're getting in to and make sure to figure out, in detail, how you plan to finance the project.
Investors often have their own criteria and rules imposed on them; make sure you are familiar with these.
You need a thick skin; make sure you have the capacity to face problems and take on risk. A lot of entrepreneurs lack managerial skills, be sure to nurture this skillset and learn how to manage your team.

Mars Exploration Rover Spirit acquired this false-color image on the rover's on Martian day, or sol, 746 (Feb. 26, 2006) after using the rock abrasion tool to brush the surfaces of rock targets informally named "Stars" (left) and "Crawfords" (right). Small streaks of dust extend for several centimeters behind the small rock chips and pebbles in the dusty, red soils. The targets Stars and Crawfords are on a rock outcrop located on top of "Home Plate." The outcrop is informally named "James 'Cool Papa' Bell," after a Negro Leagues Hall of Famer who played for both the Pittsburgh Crawfords and the Kansas City Stars. To some science team members, the two brushed spots resemble the eyes of a face, with rocks below and between the eyes as a nose and layered rocks at the bottom of the image as a mouth. The image combines frames taken by Spirit's panoramic camera through the camera's 753-nanometer, 535-namometer, and 432-nanometer filters. It is enhanced to emphasize color differences among the rocks, soils and brushed areas. The blue circular area on the left, Stars, was brushed on 761 (Feb. 22, 2006). The one on the right, Crawfords, was brushed on sol 763 (Feb. 25, 2006). Image Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/USGS/Cornell

maybe now the blog will no longer be dead from Friday-Monday…
I, for one, welcome our new Georgetown blog overlords
Of the few hundred posts I written for Vox, this is the one I least enjoy.
In a few minutes, I'll hand my blogging keys over to Geoffrey Bible and Nico Dodd, the two Voice writers who will gratuitously Blingee photos in my stead. Then, I'm headed back to the kind of news writing that doesn't involve typing into tiny browser windows and photoshopping Jack DeGioia. (… yet.)
The last seven-and-a-half months gave us Stephen R. Brown's voyeuristic website, Georgetown's worst ideas, anti-campus plan lawn signs, Jim O'Donnell and Dan Porterfield eating chicken wings, Village A window wars, and DMT. I'll miss it all.
I can't write enough about the readers and commenters who made my job well worth the stress and sleep deprivation, so I won't waste any words. Vox is nothing without its audience and I'm eager to see what it'll be like to join your ranks.
See you on the other side.

Dec. 18, 2012
DEKALB, Ill.- Northern Illinois head football coach Rod Carey spoke at NIU's weekly press conference at the Jeffrey and Kimberly Yordon Center to preview the 2013 Discover Orange Bowl with Atlantic Coast Conference champion Florida State. Joining Carey were wide receiver Perez Ashford, quarterback Jordan Lynch, cornerback Rashaan Melvin and defensive end Sean Progar. Below are excerpts from the press conference.
NIU Head Coach Rod Carey
Opening statement
"The last two weeks, it's obviously been really busy for me personally and, more importantly, our team. They had their last week of class. Then they had finals. Then they found out they were in the Orange Bowl and they were anxious to get going on film. They were more busy than I was, if you can believe that, which is good that they were excited about it. In between that, the two weekends we had two sets of practices and went really developmental with those two weekends with our young guys getting them a lot of work playing football. It was good to see those guys doing that.
"Yesterday, we started the main part of our game plan and we got some time with the coaches here to get some film study done and got some things together. It's still coming together, but we're in the middle of a four-day game plan week that we're treating this like we would build up to a normal week. That's what has been going on here.
"Practice today was good. We went inside to the DeKalb Rec and hopefully next year we'll be inside in our own, which will be nice when we are going through this. It was sharp today. The kids wanted to go inside and I did, too. The weather kind of turned on us from what the forecast said. Yesterday, we were outside, which was great for spacing. It was a beautiful day out and we got a lot done. Overall, pleased with the first two days of practices and game prep."
On what he would like the country to know about some of these other players on NIU
"Going to the Jordan Lynch thing, if you talk to him behind the scenes, I think he is a little bit uncomfortable with all of it. That's the kind of guy he is. It has been good for NIU to get us out there, not only our community, but our school. We have a lot of really good players on this team. From Martel Moore to Perez Ashford, all of our seniors are playing their best football. That's what makes this team well, is that you have seniors playing their best. Tyrone Clark, Sean Progar, Alan Baxter, all these guys, and I could go on and on and name them all. If you just look through the roster and you can highlight a senior, that's one of our best players."
On how this game is a showcase for NIU players with NFL aspirations
"No doubt. You're going against the best. Here you go. The scouts are going to be looking at all of our games, but the first game they are going to want to see is the top-level competition. It will be good for them."
On Mike Sabock returning to coach at NIU
"He called. He's retired in Florida. I'll make it real brief. His son works as a student coach, kind of helps around the office a little. A really good guy, Kevin. He hurt his shoulder, had to have surgery. His dad had to come up and help him get around after surgery. That's when all this craziness started.
"He called Jeff [Compher] and said `If Rod needs somebody.' Jeff passed that along to me and I jumped at it. Obviously, the first thing I wanted to have was Coach [Mike] Dunbar. When that didn't happen, I'm going to take Mike [Sabock] every day of the week. He's doing a great job."
On play-calling responsibilities
"I'm going to call it this game. I'm going to get out there and do it. We're trying to make it the least amount of change for this team as possible. That was the biggest thing going in, keeping the staff for this game. I'm coaching the O-line, being the OC. I guess I'll be on the sideline and doing some head coaching things, too. If the change is me, that's better than having 105 players changing."
On the smoothness of the transition
"For me, no. For them, yes. For them, it's been really smooth. Go out and watch practice. Our guys know how to work. It's awesome. Our guys know how to work and they go at it. They just kind of fit back in. We snapped back in yesterday and it was awesome to see."
On the roughest things as a coach during the transition
"Walking around every once in awhile. I'm used to coaching the O-line the entire time. It's weird. You walk around not doing anything, you get bored quick."
On rules and keeping the team focused
"Coach [Jimbo] Fisher gave me some advice when we were down at the Orange Bowl (press conference). He said, `Know where they are at.' I said, `Oh, great.' We're going to have some structured events, but this is a reward. That is the other part of this. We're going to let them be kids, but they know they are representing themselves and the spotlight is on and the spotlight is bigger than it's been for us. We've been talking about it nonstop.
"We wanted this. That's what our kids have gone after. To think that they would minimize this or use this or not be responsible with this, I think would be short-sighted on my part. They're going to be responsible. I'm going to help them be responsible, but they are going to enjoy it, too."
On a boost in recruiting
"They call back. The recruits call back. It's good. They're really fired up about it, all the guys we are talking to and they should be. We're a BCS bowl team this year. If you're 18 (and) you're looking at some schools, I think we would be at the top of your list and we should be. That's been a positive. How will it translate? I don't know. I will let you know on signing day."
On contact with Dave Doeren and has he offered any support
"A ton. We couldn't have kept this staff together the way we have if Dave and I hadn't been in constant communication. I give a lot of credit to him on this and I've talked to him about this team. Guys, he was our head coach this year. He led this team. He set tones. He did those things, in all, really well. We're 12-1. So yeah, have I leaned on him and I'm going to lean on him a little more in the next two weeks."
On keys to winning the game
"We need to play well. Guys, when you are going into a game like this, it is like any big game to us. You have to create turnovers. We have to take care of the ball. We have to be able to run the ball and we have to be able to stop the run. That's as old as football is. When you look at the matchups of the BCS teams versus to non-BCS teams, you look at the run games on both sides of the ball. Whatever team can establish the run and whatever team can stop the run, usually that leads to turnovers. That leads to points and, all of a sudden, that eventually leads to the outcome.
"The keys are going to be up front on both sides. I've heard it the numbers. Someone said their O-line outweighs our D-line and all that stuff. All that is good and well, but some of the O-lines in our conference outweigh our D-line, too, and we played pretty good against those O-lines. That's the key."
On how difficult it will be to run the football
"We have to do that all the time anyways. We aren't 310 pounds or 315 pounds up front. We have a bunch of young guys playing who are not inexperienced anymore. They are just young. They might be a little light, so we have to do that anyways. That's part of what we normally do. We have to move things around and create angles and mismatches. We look for it all. We always use the term `Where's Waldo' and find him on defense. Let me tell you, Florida State doesn't have Waldo. They have a bunch of good football players. That's kind of how we go about things normally, so we'll do that again."
On FSU being the fastest team NIU has faced all year
"No doubt, they are. I don't need to expand on that. They're fast."
On the importance of a good start
"We talked about that the other day with our team. One of our biggest strengths is that, no matter what has happened to us, we've had adversity. It's not like we've rolled through 12 straight games. We've had adversity and we've always dealt with it, stayed calm. We have a real even keel, this team, and that's because of our seniors and how they go about things. If we talked about managing your emotions and this, absolutely we have. We are going to continue to talk about that. Everything we've thrown at this team this year, they have responded to. I have no reason to believe they won't respond to this."
On getting off to a good start as the underdog
"Is that important? No. That I think is something for everybody who is watching. We're going to have their attention and they are going to have our attention. Would we want to get off to a good start? Yes. Every game."
On the offensive line
"Losing Logan [Pegram] going into the year was a blow, and losing Tyler [Loos] in that Toledo game was a really big blow because he was playing as well as any tackle in the conference. But the group overall I'm really proud of. We always knew there was talent there, but when you're light on experience on the O-line, as an O-line coach you sit down, bite your nails, and be nervous about it. Am I shocked by their progress? No. Did I expect them to go as far as they have? No. But do I want more? Yeah. You're talking to the guy that coaches them. It's never good enough, just ask them today."
On Logan Pegram
"It's been hard on him. He had his career taken away from him with an injury. I hardly talk about that too much, because I'm pretty emotional about that myself. It's been hard on him, but he's responded well."
On Tyler Loos
"Tyler, he was frustrated, really frustrated. A year ago, he blew his ACL. He battles all the way back, comes back, is all-conference and then breaks his leg. So he's looking at another long road. But he's gotten through that a little bit. And the good thing, I don't know if it's a good thing to call it, he broke a bone, he didn't tear a ligament. With a bone, it's just time. He'll be back, and his mindset is getting right about it."
On having so much off time to game plan
"You have to be careful with that. You're 12-1 doing what you've been doing. And every week you make tweaks as the season goes along. So yeah, we've done some things for this game. I'm the worst at it. You can go in the offensive staff room and ask those guys. I want to do this, that, and the other thing. Coach Cole, Tripodi, Uremovich, and Jackson say whoa, whoa, whoa. They're there pumping the brakes on me. One thing that can be bad is as a coach, you get too much time, you get that pen in your hand, you draw too many pictures. It's bad. So you have to pump your brakes. There will be other things that we do that are different."
On the players' reactions to being in a BCS game
"How we're discussing it behind closed doors, I'll leave that behind closed doors. But their reaction to being in a BCS bowl is they're excited, really excited, and they should be. My kind of take on how the outside has kind of perceived us, it's gone from really negative right away, to kind of turned positive, that feel-good story. I think it's all been great because they all talk about NIU. I think that's a great thing. I think people are responding that way. I think they see it too, what a good thing for NIU."
On how much the team progressed since the Iowa game
"We're a lot different because we went on a 12-game winning streak after that. That's the first way we're different. We didn't know what we had going into that game. I'm not making excuses. Don't take that the wrong way. Iowa beat us that day. Make no mistake about it. You know what? They're a good football team, they're well-coached. Coach Ferentz has been there for a long time and has a good program. We didn't know what we had. We didn't know who we were, we didn't know our identity, and that's no one's fault. We had a lot of new faces, and a lot of new teams. How have we changed since then? We've learned about ourselves. The only way you learn about yourselves is to play a game. You can only practice so long."
On playing close conference games
"I hadn't thought about that. But now that you bring it up, I'll give you my two cents - it isn't worth much. Yeah, you're right. We play the same coaches year in and year out. Same staffs. And you have years of film on them. Not just one year. So you kind of go back and know if the coordinator is the same, you can kind of see how it did this two years ago. There's a lot of familiarity when it comes to conference. That's true in any conference."
On representing the entire Mid-American Conference in the BCS
"Yes, we do. We feel like we're representing the entire MAC. Obviously NIU, and it's a great university we have, one that stands apart from athletics as a fine institution. We're just the front porch. So we represent all of those things and we're willing to do it. We're excited to do it."
On receiving calls from other head coaches in the conference
"Not from other head coaches, but from other friends I have in the conference, like assistant coaches, sure. We text back and forth."
"Congrats, good luck. Which means a lot. These guys you have to play against every year, they're going way to go, go get `em."
On hearing from other coaches in the coaching fraternity
"I've probably spent more time on the phone in the last two weeks than I had in my entire life. That's calling around, me calling around asking advice, to be quite honest. I've spent time on the phone with Coach Mallory, Coach Novak. I even had a conversation with Coach Kill and obviously Coach Doeren. And some other people out there that are head coaches that I've reached out to for advice, because this is all new for me."
On whether the MAC is getting its due respect
"They're probably not. I've been asked that question and gone back and forth on that. What's the level of respect that's acceptable? That's what I ask. Everyone is going to naturally flock to the BCS conferences, and they have this, they have that. Where are we setting the bar for it? Are we setting the bar as a BCS conference? We're not there, as far as level of respect. You have to earn that. This is a big step for our conference and NIU."
Perez Ashford, Wide Receiver
On differences between Chandler Harnish and Jordan Lynch
"The main difference is that Jordan is more athletic than Chandler - running, breaking tackles, speed. Other than that, it's been the same. Jordan learned a lot from Chandler and took that into his game."
Jordan Lynch, Quarterback
On how the team made it this far
"I didn't do this all by myself - make it to the Orange Bowl all by myself. It's a game plan, it's the coaches, it's the teammates around me, the playmakers around me. We just started getting after it this week with the game plan, and we're excited to go down there."
On getting off to a fast start
"That's one thing we always talk about - starting fast. We're practicing right now; we usually script the first 10 plays, so we're comfortable with what we do. I think that will be key, to start off with a fast pace and get us going."
On having Coach Carey still calling the plays
"Nothing really changes. We're going to do what we did for the last 12 weeks. Do what we did, and come out and play fast - how we normally do it."
Rashaan Melvin, Cornerback
On distractions in Miami
"The main focus is the football game. Everything else is second. We plan on having a good time, but we're going down there to play a football game against one of the best teams in the country. As NIU as a whole program, we're dedicated to our work. We'll just focus on the game."
Sean Progar, Defensive End
On how the Florida State offense stacks up against other opponents this season
"They'll be the best offense. Their offensive line is obviously big, strong, pretty athletic. I think their skill players are where their offense is different than what we've seen. They have some big guys that can move fast at running back and wide receiver. So we're going to have to tackle well, fit our gaps well, and execute the game plan."
On transitioning to Coach Carey
"He has a different personality. I think he meshes well with the team. I think it was good for them to bring in someone that knows what we do, both individually and as a team, and knows what we're all about. I think the way he's ran things so far has been smooth; he hasn't changed much. We've kept our routine, and I think that's big for us going into the game."
On the game being an audition for the NFL
"It's a huge opportunity for us seniors. Obviously they're an ACC, a powerhouse school and university. We're going to get a chance to go up against those guys that we're going to be compared to once we get to the NFL. You're not going to get a pass because you go to a smaller school - they're going to compare you to everyone else. It's going to be an opportunity for us to show what we can do."

Their has always been a feud amongst who the best dressed Kardashian is and Kourtney Kardashian has always been a fan favorite when it came to style, but Kim Kardashian's obsession with labels lately has made her a moving fashion target.
The Kardashian sisters attended the Generation NXT Dream Foundation benefit Sunday, February 16 and North's mommy looked stunning as usual in all black. Kimmy, who started her career as a stylist is currently leading the Kardashian-pack in this sleek, high priced ensemble only made for the rich and famous.
The 33 year old wore a sheer, black and gold Stella McCartney top with a sexy bare back and a chic, black pencil skirt by Lanvin to match. The new mommy topped off the getup with a glamorous black Tom Ford fur jacket and black gladiator style heels also by designer Tom Ford.
Kim even threw in some black stockings from the family line Kardashian Kollection, which debuted last week in stores.

President Obama today issued a directive ordering the Labor Department to extend mandated overtime pay for workers who historically have not been eligible for it under current laws. The directive primarily was aimed at salaried workers who have been required to work beyond the traditional 40 hour week without any overtime compensation, according to America Aljazeera on March 12. Restaurant and retail managers are among the salaried workers who often fall into this category, work extra hours and do not get paid overtime.
Across the United States workers who make less than $455 per week are eligible for overtime pay. However, California and New York have higher limits, $640 and $600 respectively. These higher thresholds are inclusive of retail and restaurant managers who generally do make much less than these larger amounts per week even though they are classified as managers. This is because of the preeminence of "assistant managers" and "shift leaders" who often are just one or two ranks above the minimum wage earners who wait on customers, clean, stock shelves, etc..
It has become customary in retail establishments and restaurants to mandate that these low level management employees work overtime without additional compensation, cleaning, counting money, prepping for the next day, etc.. This is because the retailers and restaurants do not want to have to pay an hourly employee overtime to perform the same tasks.
President Obama's directive is intended to narrow the gap between the poor and the wealthy, as is his directive raising the minimum wage for federal employees from $7.25 to $10.10 per hour. Republican members of Congress were not happy with the President's directive, including House Speaker John Boehner, who stated the following:
"There's all kinds of rumors about what the president may or may not do with regards to overtime pay and reclassifying some jobs for overtime. But if you don't have a job, you don't qualify for overtime. So what do you get out of it? You get nothing."
Obviously President Obama believes that millions of Americans will get something from his directive, namely a more manageable living and greater purchasing power. He spoke of income inequity in his latest State of the Union Address and he has demonstrated his commitment to following through on his promises to working Americans.
President Obama's directive comes just a few days after FOX commentator Todd Wilemon advised poor people just "to stop being poor" on The Daily Show.

Things are coming together at Dakota Ridge.
For a program with a second-year coach and players that kept their heads above water last season as sophomore starters, the Eagles are progressing nicely.
"We had an awesome summer," coach Curi Yutzy said. "The kids are really starting to get what we're trying to do."
The Eagles return three starters from a squad that went 8-15 overall last year, 3-10 in the Class 5A Jefferson County League.
An online system that displays e-mails among the three Jeffco commissioners - created after the Courier confronted the commission over an apparent violation of the state Open Meetings Law - has been used just once.
And, according to First Amendment attorney Chris Beall, the system still doesn't bring the commissioners into full compliance with the law.
Some Realtors and an official at Colorado's biggest bank say they're doing everything they can to keep foreclosed homes looking spiffy in Jefferson County.
Their work comes as sheriff's deputies and county commissioners are discussing how to levy fines or other penalties on banks and others that don't maintain the properties. County officials also want those responsible for the properties to register their names so they can be contacted if crimes are committed.
Two people were stabbed, one fatally, at an apartment complex in South Jeffco on Sunday morning.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office identified the pair as: James K. Sack, 37, and Yesenia Avila, 26. Avila died from her injuries.
The stabbings occurred about 9:30 a.m Nov. 1 at the Dakotas Apartments near Southwest Plaza.
Both victims were taken to a nearby hospital.
Sheriff's spokeswoman Jacki Kelley said Sack is in custody at the hospital, and that the circumstances around the death are still under investigation.
While classrooms across the country honored veterans Nov. 10 with patriotic plays, songs or flag ceremonies, math teacher Jean Coyne's students celebrated with protractors and calculators.
"We're making a pie graph representing the total number of years for each (U.S.) war," said 13-year-old Ken Caryl Middle School student Mark Sherman.
The Veterans Day exercises made class interesting, Sherman said, because students used real-life data to create graphs revealing how much war affects soldiers and the country.
The Jefferson County School District is certainly on top of technology, as it was named first in the nation by the Center of Digital Education as part of the Digital School District Survey.
The award came after an electronic survey was taken in school districts nationwide gauging how they integrate the use of technology in curriculum and district use.
Jeffco placed first in districts with more than 15,000 students.
Chatfield boys basketball coach Steve Schimpeler has taken a one-year leave of absence from the program, according to athletic director, Chad Broer.
"Steve's going to take a year off and focus on some family issues," Broer said. "He approached me about six weeks ago and told me what was going on in his life and that (taking a year off) may be an option. I advised him to take some time and that in the beginning of November, we'd talk again."
Blood-sucking, rabies-carrying, flying-blind mice might seem like suitable subjects for a school research project, especially around Halloween.
Linda Barnard has a message for her clients: Pour the soda down the sink and stock up on dietary supplements.
Barnard, the owner of a South Jeffco fitness studio, has decades of experience that have produced an ethos that emphasizes restraint and doesn't accept failure.
It's been more than a year since Barnard opened DOT Weight Loss and Wellness, which was inspired by her time managing Gloria Stevens Figure Salons in Massachusetts.
The name Steve Ellis doesn't resonate in this part of the country.
However, mention the name in the south, particularly Florida, and Ellis's name was synonymous with two things: hard work and Florida State athletics.
Ellis passed away far too soon at the age of 54 on Nov. 19, nine days after suffering a heart attack. According to reports, the longtime Florida State University beat writer was in the middle of writing a story when the heart attack happened. A true bulldog till the end, he made his wife e-mail in his copy before calling 911.

Tientai Mountain rises more than 1,500 meters, having one platform on the top. The mountain got this name because it is often in cloud and among mist.
Originally on Tientai Mountain, a Taoist architecture named "Tientai Taoist Temple" was built during Emperor Qianlong's reign. But it no longer exists now. A few years ago, "Tientai Cabinet" was newly built, where tourists may doze. In 1992, with donations from other temples, another temple was built along the slope of mountain. It is managed by monks, which becomes another new interesting tourist spot.
On Tientai Mountain, there are ten thousands mu dense and luxuriant forests. Gale coming you can hear its crazy whistling among pines. The burning sun hangs in the sky but dense shade screens the sunlight. When you walk up high on the mountain and have a look into the distance numerous mountains will seem small to you. Look below you will see cloud and mist curling up underfoot, like being in a wonderland. What a rare tourist attraction.
More than 100 meters away to the east of Tientai Mountain, you will see one peculiar landscape: a peach-shaped giant stone standing top down and without any supporting around. Gale coming, it even sways. On its top may stand more than 10 people. When all people put forth their strength simultaneously, it can be also swayed According to traditional saying, this is the piece of saucer peach eaten by Sun Wukong (an immortal monkey). The piece fell down to the ground and has molten into this stone after many years. Therefore, it is called "Saucer Peach Stone"
More than 100 steps from saucer peach stone, there is another giant stone with flat top. It may hold more than 20 people. Giant stone and platform are about 2 meter apart, so you can leap up onto giant stone. The giant stone is shaded by lofty trees around. You can sit on it playing chess, or reading a book. Either is a good choice. According to the legend this is the place where Sima Guang used to read a book, called "platform for book-reading.
There is a hole on Tainan Precipice, named "classics Hidden Hole" though whether some one had hidden classics here, has not been known after all. At the center of platform, there is a fountain well, running all through the year and having clear and cool water.

Trundle Beds
Please Note! BPN is now a 501(c)(3) non-profit and has moved to a new website: BerkeleyParentsNetwork.org
Our kid's room has to double as a guest room, so we're looking for a nice pop-up trundle. I've found one on line I like, but would prefer to shop locally. Anyone know who sells these? They're remarkably hard to find. Thanks. Lynn
My 2 year old daughter will soon be needing to move out of her
crib and into a bed, but I'm not sure what sort of bed that
should be. She has a baby sister with whom she'll share a room
in another year or so. For this reason, I'm seriously considering
a trundle bed, but I don't really know anything about them and
I'm wondering whether there are any negative aspects to trundle
beds that I should consider (ie difficulty in making the bed,
likelihood that one kid will roll over onto the other, etc).
Also, I'm wondering about the advantages/disadvantages of buying
a toddler bed rather than a regular twin.
I've checked the archive and found recommendations for places to
buy beds, but nothing on these particular issues, so any input
would be appreciated.

Hes been having problems with his record label and there have been rumors he was getting kicked off the label. There was no fight. He doesnt want more money.
what, mike beat him up?
Linkin park. All hail. i SAID, HAIL.
http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/news/i...-housecleaning More Info about it. Nothing has been confirmed, but Busta still says his album is coming out on Aftermath so...I dont really know whats going on
I saw this on a couple other forums
"A guy at the show tonight said the venue told him that Busta apparently got into some sort of fight and was kicked off the tour. Can anyone verify this? Will it mean A Place For My Head instead of We Made It? Busta did not perform his set today and as far as we know, did not even go to the venue."
"Details are still Sketchy over the full reasons over the departure of Busta Rhymes, but from the research myself ad Wilderness have done, we have been made aware that it was an Altercation with none other than Mike Shinoda. This would explain why it was so "Easy" to get rid of him, however, where does it leave the pair aside from this tour? Is this the last time we will ever hear the band talk about themselves and Busta in the Same breath? All valid points for discussion."
"Rapper Busta Rhymes was originally on the tour until an altercation occurred which lead to him being kicked off tour."
Could be just rumors.
So Mike and Busta got into a fight? I don't believe that. Mike seems like too much of a nice guy to do something like that. But then again, we've only seen him in interviews/behind the scenes, what he's like in his private life can be a different story.
Besides if Mike was pissed off with Busta then he wouldn't have said he regrets Busta's departure and hopes to cross paths with him again on his blog.

Plus, Busta was the only artist on the tour who actually asked to be on the tour, rather than being invited. I'm sure he was being kept on a short leash.
Busta ate Chris Cornell's Cheetos.

I dont think Mike would get into a fight with him. like "paul" said he is too much of a nice guy. we will just hve to wait to see what had really happened between busta and Shinoda.

Turtle Doves Poisoned by Sunflower Seeds
Awful things.
Last week, following the sudden deaths of 5,000 blackbirds, 2 million fish, and 40,000 crabs, a scientist explained that mass deaths of creatures actually occur all the time, and it's not a sign of the pending apocalypse. We're just reporting on it more now because of the Internet, he said, and it's becoming one of those media trends, blown out of proportion. But this latest report cannot go unmentioned: one thousand turtle doves fell dead from the sky in Italy with strange blue stains on their beaks. Turtle doves, like, the animals with plaintive voices that have become universal symbols of love. And this part, while confirming that their deaths aren't apocalyptic, does not make us feel better:
"The most likely cause are discarded sunflower seeds that were found on an industrial estate close to where the bodies of the turtle doves were found. In essence the birds were greedy, ate too many of the seeds and this brought on the indigestion that led to their death."
Delicious sunflower seeds just killed a flock of innocent turtle doves. It might not be the literal end of the world, but it's pretty close.
