Alcohol use can be a slippery slope. Moderate drinking can offer some health benefits. But heavy drinking can have serious consequences.
It sounds like a mixed message: Drinking alcohol may offer some health benefits, especially for your heart. On the other hand, alcohol may increase your risk of health problems and damage your heart.
So which is it? When it comes to drinking alcohol, the key is doing so only in moderation. Certainly, you don't have to drink any alcohol, and if you currently don't drink, don't start drinking for the possible health benefits. In some cases, it's safest to avoid alcohol entirely — the possible benefits don't outweigh the risks.
Here's a closer look at the connection between alcohol and your health.
Moderate alcohol consumption may provide some health benefits. It may:
Even so, the evidence about the possible health benefits of alcohol isn't certain, and alcohol may not benefit everyone who drinks.
If you choose to drink alcohol, do so only in moderation. For healthy adults, that means up to one drink a day for women of all ages and men older than age 65, and up to two drinks a day for men age 65 and younger.
Examples of one drink include:
Moderate alcohol use may be of most benefit if you're an older adult or if you have existing risk factors for heart disease. If you're a middle-aged or younger adult, some evidence shows that even moderate alcohol use may cause more harm than good. You can take other steps to benefit your cardiovascular health besides drinking — eating a healthy diet and exercising, for example.
In certain situations, the risks of alcohol use may outweigh the possible health benefits. For example, use alcohol only with great care and after consulting your doctor if:
Keep in mind that even moderate use isn't risk-free. For example, drinking and driving is never a good idea.
Heavy drinking is defined as more than three drinks on any day or more than seven drinks a week for women and for men older than age 65, and more than four drinks on any day or more than 14 drinks a week for men age 65 and younger. Binge drinking is defined as four or more drinks within two hours for women and five or more drinks within two hours for men.
While moderate alcohol use may offer some health benefits, heavy drinking — including binge drinking — has no health benefits. Excessive drinking can increase your risk of serious health problems, including:
The latest dietary guidelines make it clear that no one should begin drinking or drink more frequently on the basis of potential health benefits. So don't feel pressured to drink alcohol. But if you do drink alcohol and you're healthy, there's probably no need to stop as long as you drink responsibly and in moderation.

Knitter's Review
December 5, 2013
Julie Weisenberger has a knack for solving problems before we realize we have them.
She did it with her Knitter's Block blocking kit, which lets you assemble soft floor tiles in whatever shape you need for blocking garments. And she's done it again with her Knitter's Keep.
This silicone bracelet slaps onto your wrist and holds all those little metal gadgets we tend to lose when we're knitting, things like stitch markers, tapestry needles, and cable needles. How does it hold everything? Magnetism.

On September 24th 2011, Element and Beachworks joined forces to present the ELEMENT EQUINOX FESTIVAL. Set in Element's own Orange County backyard, the festival included an amateur contest, team demo, team signing and a bevy of booths to keep attendees psyched. Two amateur contests were held: thirteen and under and fourteen plus. A total of $1,000 was awarded to the winners, $700 of which made its way into the back pocket of 14+ winner Edgar Barrera.
In addition, a free trip to Element / Ymca Skate Camp was awarded to the winner of the thirteen and under contest, Vinny Villani.
As impressive as the 14+ contest and demo were, the young kids contest really brought the stoke. Seeing the young'uns with decks as big them go for glory brought smiles to the faces of even the most jaded among us.
While not watching the skate action, attendees tie-dyed t-shirts, got henna tattoos, played skateboard wheel plinko to win free Element gear and checked out an array of animals on display from Inside the Outdoors.

Small Goals Will Get You There!
I just recently started back running after taking a break from it for quite some time. I remember I was up to 5 miles nonstop. I was so proud of myself, but life happened and I got really busy and distracted. Once you stop it's really hard to get your endurance back up, so I started back running this past week.
Now everyday that I would get out and start running I would look at my distance watch and just say let me just make it one nonstop mile today... every time I would get exhausted. I would look at the watch and get so frustrated that I was that tired and not even halfway there. I'd get so disappointed I would just start to walk. This happened over and over again, then a friend of mine said, "it's not about speed, its about endurance." I thought about those scriptures that say, "the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong...it's to the one who endureth to the end." So yesterday I started running and decided not to look at the watch, not to watch the time, but to just focus on what was right in front of me, one step at a time. The task at hand was not looking up but just thanking God for where I was at that moment. Before I knew it I had run two miles. I had to thank God for those two miles, it wasn't five, but it's a great start for me to get back to the five.
As I celebrated with my hands in the air, it made me think of life in so many ways. It made me think how we set out with these huge goals for ourselves and they seem so hard to reach. They seem so impossible, and when we have small victories we don't even stop to notice them, we don't stop and say, "God thank you for where I am right now." Life and its circumstances distract us, and we get frustrated because we feel that we're running out of time. You may not be at your goal yet, but what you need to know is that with each step you get closer. Take some time to stop and thank God for where you are, stop focusing so hard on the finish line and enjoy the race. Each step toward your goal is a victory, you can't get overwhelmed with how far you have to go... you just need to focus on one step at a time. Keep going.
With that said, I want to thank you for watching The Haves and The Have Nots on Tuesday and Love Thy Neighbor on Wednesday nights. This was my first drama on TV and I was a little overwhelmed when I thought about it, but you, you, YOU! You not only are watching these shows but also taking time to tell me and everyone else how much you love them, thank you so much. The haters can scream so loud sometimes that you miss the voices of the people who love what you do. Don't worry now, you are screaming louder than them. I hear you, you love it, and I thank you so much for watching both of the shows. You have no idea how many lives you have changed by watching them, how many jobs you keep creating just by turning on OWN on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, I'm grateful beyond words.
Only 5 more episodes of The Haves and The Have Nots for the next five weeks, and only 6 more episodes of Love Thy Neighbor for the next three weeks.

Team to face Arsenal at The Emirates?
BIG GAME. It really is make or break for us this week, if we have any hopes of finishing in the top 4 then we need at least 3 points out of the next 2 games or we are likely to need a lot of emphasis on freak results.
Arsenal are very similar to us this season, capable of absolutely stuffing someone one minute then falling over a few days later, I guess that is pretty clear by us being 3 points behind at this stage. They started much better then us but we have closed the gap on them so we have better recent form. It is going to be an interesting one, that is for sure.
The good news is the returns of Johnson, Enrique and Reina, great news all round. I have this sneaking concern that Carra was rested at Oldham and Rodgers plans to keep faith with him after the 5-0 Norwich home win. All good if we were to play a slightly deeper counter attacking game but if we are to play the BR way, a high line and Theo Walcott on his shoulder, it all looks a bit worrying!

Looks good to me, although I'd likely switch Henderson and Suarez. But, to be fair wherever that front line is at kick off, with the exception of Downing, they are going to interchange anyway.
On Cara, I think your right, despite all the glowing posts of how he would have been our savior if only BR had the sense to play him at Oldham, I think against the speed of attack we're likely to see in the next two fixtures he's not ideal.
However it might also be that he was rested so he's available for the next 2, but not necessarily as a starter. He himself has said at his age it's hard for him to recover for 2 games a week. If anything happens to either Agger or Skrtel I'd rather a fresh Cara coming on rather than anyone else, plus there is always the possibility he could be deployed from the bench as a defensive midfielder or even an old fashion sweeper if we're looking for a calming influence to help get a result.

I was thinking Henderson on the left as the whole inverted widemen worked well against Norwich with the full backs pushing up. I doubt we will be allowed so much high possesion against Arsenal though. I like the idea of going for experienced rafters to start then having the luxury of Sterling to come on and open the game out.
Works for me. Strongest side possible please.

The city of Canandaigua passed its revised comprehensive plan Thursday night during a City Council meeting.
The city's Comprehensive Plan Review Committee examined possible changes to the previous plan — adopted in 2002 — for more than a year, before recommending changes to City Council.
The plan is broken into multiple categories: lakefront; downtown; transportation; housing; economy; parks and recreation; historic preservation; South Main Street; vacant lots in the city's northeast and southeast quadrants; and urban forestry, which is a look at landscaping in the city.
The review committee consisted of, Lynn Paulson, David Poteet, Adrienne Kantz, Kathy Rayburn, Scott Schauman, David Whitcomb, Cindy Wade, Jim Mueller and Ryan Akin.

Protesters' Newspaper Occupies a Familiar Name
To get their message out, the activists camped out in a small park near Wall Street have engaged in techniques old (drum circles) and new (live, streaming video). After complaining that the mainstream media had been insufficiently covering events, two protesters launched a newspaper of their own.
The name of this new publication — the Occupied Wall Street Journal — nods to a certain national newspaper with origins not far from the protesters' encampment in Zuccotti Park. The debut four-page issue, published Saturday, had an initial print run of 50,000; a second printing Monday night added another 20,000.
For co-editor Jed Brandt, 38 years old, a traditional broadsheet paper brings a "super hip retro" feel to the social-media-savvy protest. "It's so old, it's new," he said.
The next issue of the Occupied Wall Street Journal is set to be published Thursday and will include coverage of Wednesday's anticipated union-backed rallies and planned walkouts at some public high schools. Future issues will include a section dedicated to covering other "Occupy Wall Street"-inspired protests sprouting up elsewhere.
Brandt, who runs a Manhattan-based production company and prints newsletters for activist groups, is sharing editorial responsibilities with Michael Levitin, 35, a former reporter for the Associated Press and Newsweek.
The Occupied Wall Street Journal appears less concerned with traditional reporting than with firing up protesters and explaining the day-to-day operations of the demonstration. The debut issue featured a piece by former New York Times correspondent Chris Hedges, a call to action that begins: "Either you join the revolt taking place on Wall Street and in the financial district or you stand on the wrong side of history."
The paper's first freelance commission came about by happenstance: Brandt met the award-winning journalist in Zuccotti Park and told Hedges about the project. Hedges promptly removed a few typed pages from his coat pocket — an article he was working on about the protest movement — and told Brandt he could print it.
Money for the newspaper was raised through the fund-raising website Kickstarter, with promotional help from progressive media giants like Michael Moore and "No Logo" author Naomi Klein. The fledgling publication has raised nearly $44,000 from more than 1,000 donors, far surpassing the initial goal of $12,000.
Levitin said they now have "enough money in the pot" to produce up to five issues this month, as long as they have volunteers eager to put in the time.
Each edition of the newspaper, which is produced at a print shop in Long Island City, Queens, costs a few thousand dollars to create and is printed on "semi-recycled paper," Brandt said.
"Initially we were going to make a mock Journal," said Levitin, referring to an antiwar parody of the New York Times printed in 2008 by the Yes Men, an activist group. But the editors instead decided on a more straightforward publication.
"There's nothing equal to the power of the printed page," said Levitin, a sentiment that may seem a little of step in an era when Twitter and Facebook are lauded for helping to foment revolutions.
Ultimately, Levitin and Brandt hope to make the Occupied Wall Street Journal a national publication, much like the newspaper that inspired its name. (A representative for The Wall Street Journal declined to comment; the protest newspaper has no relationship to The Journal.) Brandt has already reached out to protesters in nearby cities, such as Washington and Boston, in search of potential contributors.
Dan Schneider, 20, a representative from the protesters' media working group in Boston, said activists there have already sought advice from their New York counterparts on creating a newspaper of their own — with some modifications for the local media market.
"We are planning to put out our own issue," Schneider said. "Not the Occupied Wall Street Journal, but the Occupied Boston Globe."

BALTIMORE -- Ray Lewis and Andrew Luck finally crossed paths Sunday, Lewis on his way into NFL history after 17 seasons, Luck just arriving for his spot in history in his first.
The Baltimore Ravens and the Indianapolis Colts are rivals with bitter history that predates both players. But in an AFC wild-card game with many dramatic storylines, it was the Baltimore offense -- for which the Ravens have waited several years to assume the team identity as Lewis' defense has aged -- that broke through. The Ravens seized a 24-9 victory, ending a remarkable run by a Colts team that was expected to be one of the worst in the league this season.
"My only focus was to come in and get my team a win -- nothing else was planned," said Lewis, who has announced he is retiring after the season. "It's one of those things, when you recap it all and try to say what is one of your greatest moments. I knew how it started, but I never knew how it would end here in Baltimore. To go the way it did today, I wouldn't change nothing."
The Ravens next travel to Denver, where the Broncos and quarterback Peyton Manning are the AFC's top seed, in the divisional round Saturday.
But to get there, Baltimore first had to dispatch Manning's successor in Indianapolis.
Luck is one of three rookie quarterbacks who led their teams into the playoffs, and the Colts -- a young, rebuilding unit that last season won only two games and was buoyed this season by the emotional return of coach Chuck Pagano after leukemia treatment -- made it in part because of Luck's cool. He has led seven second-half comebacks from a tie or deficit this season.
But on the day Lewis took his final herky-jerky walk through the tunnel for a rapturous pregame dance, his right arm enrobed in an enormous brace to stabilize the torn right triceps that cost him a large part of the season, the Ravens defense held up just enough. It allowed its offense to survive two fumbles by Ray Rice and gave Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco and receiver Anquan Boldin their own showcase.
Facing a nearly nonstop blitz in the first half, Luck -- with his offensive coordinator Bruce Arians hospitalized with nausea and headaches -- was sacked and fumbled in Baltimore territory in the first quarter, stopping one drive. Then the defense forced three field goals by the Colts' Adam Vinatieri and held on an early fourth-quarter drive that ended with a rare Vinatieri miss.
That was all the breathing room Flacco needed. He threw two second-half touchdown passes, including the clincher to Boldin with 9:14 to play. Boldin finished with five catches for 145 yards.
"I went up to him before the game and told him I feel like 200 yards today," Boldin said.
Pagano told his team to remember this feeling.
"Because we've got the foundation, the foundation is set," Pagano said. "We said we were going to build one on rock and not on sand, because you can weather storms like this and you can learn from times like this."
The Ravens inserted Lewis for the final play, an offensive victory formation, allowing him one more dance in Baltimore -- an idea that occurred to coach John Harbaugh only when the offense got the ball back, although he said that owner Steve Bisciotti suggested putting Lewis at running back. But before Lewis went back on the field, he turned to the crowd and pounded his heart. For one more game at least, the Ravens and their heart will keep beating together.

PROVO, Utah (Feb. 2, 2011) ? BYU head coach Bronco Mendenhall today announced the Cougars? 2011 football recruiting class featuring 19 talented prospects. The class includes 12 defensive, six offensive and one special teams players.
"This class reflects a continuation of our existing recruiting philosophy, which has helped produce one of the most successful programs in the country,? Mendenhall said. ?We recruit young men who are excellent football players, quality students and exceptional individuals. This class is passionate about coming to BYU, and we are excited to have them be part of BYU football.?
The 2011 class features 17 high school seniors and two junior college transfers.
Twelve high school recruits are first-team all-state honorees while two are second-team selections. The Cougars signed the most top-20 prospects from Utah, getting commitments from eight of the state?s top players.
Mid-year enrollee Ryker Mathews, a 6-6, 270-pound offensive lineman from American Fork, Utah, is rated the state?s No. 1 recruit by Rivals.com. Joining Mathews in the state?s top 20 include defensive linemen Moses Kaumatule, Baker Pritchard and Kesni Tausinga along with linebackers Austin Heder and Manoa Pikula, tight end Colby Jorgensen and offensive lineman Ului Lapuaho.
In addition, five recruits are rated in the top 50 at their respective positions by Scout.com, including Pikula (No. 8 fullback), Jorgensen (No. 28 tight end), Heder (No. 30 middle linebacker), Adam Pulsipher (No. 41 middle linebacker) and Mathews (No. 43 offensive lineman).
Overall, the Cougars signed five defensive lineman, five linebackers and two defensive backs on the defensive side of the ball, while adding three offensive lineman, two tight ends and one quarterback on offense as well one kicker to special teams.
Thirteen recruits hail from Utah, including four from the two-time defending 5A state champion Bingham Miners, while four come from California and one each from Arizona and Oklahoma.
This year?s recruiting class will be augmented this fall with 14 former players or signees who are returning from missions for the 2011 season. BYU becomes an independent program in 2011 after achieving a 50-15 record over the last five seasons, including four bowl victories. Only eight teams have more wins over that span and only 11 teams have won bowl games four of the past five seasons.

I used short-grain rice for the dosa, and there were two kinds of dal, udad and chana, that went into it, along with poha (flattened rice) and methi seeds. I spread the dosas very thin and crepe-like because that's how both Desi and I like them. They turned out quite amazing. Thanks, Paddu, for a keeper recipe!
This recipe goes to the Well-Seasoned Cook Susan's second helping of A Legume Love Affair.
- 2 cups rice
- ⅓ cup poha (flattened rice, available in Indian grocery stores)
- 2 tbsp chana dal (bengal gram dal)
- ½ cup udad dal (black gram dal)
- ½ tsp methi seeds
- Salt to taste
- Soak in water all the ingredients except the salt for at least 4-5 hours and more if you have the time. Drain.
- Blend the rice-dal mixture, in several batches, adding enough water to make a smooth batter that's runny enough to spread into a crepe, but thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Heat a cast-iron or non-stick griddle. Using a ladle with a rounded bottom, pour some batter into the center of the griddle and, in a quick but smooth motion, spread outward in concentric circles. Don't be afraid if you make holes: just add a small drop of batter to patch it. In this case, practice definitely makes perfect and trust me, you'll get the hang of it soon enough.
- Pour a few drops of oil around the dosa's edges. This really helps give it that crispiness I love. Once the underside is golden brown, loosen the dosa gently from the skillet and flip over. If your griddle was hot enough to begin with, this step will be very, very easy.
- Cook the other side for a few seconds, giving more time if your dosa is thicker. Serve hot with some sambar or chutney or both.
- Enjoy!

Good morning and welcome to Summit Up, the world's only daily column that is H8'ng on itself right now, thinking it is its own biggest PITA (pain in the a**) to write on the one day we think is our day off. Whatever happened to TGIF (Thank God It's Friday)? Nobody loves us. TISNF (this is so not fair).
OTOH (on the other hand), we recognize - nay revere - the tradition of writing Summit Up, which dates to the very beginning of this here Summit Daily News paper UR holding in UR hands, staring at these words, thinking ZZZ or WTF is this column about anyway?
We like to imagine our Summit Up progenitor M. John Fayhee (happy belated birthday, BTW), sitting in the newsroom, perhaps perched upon a stool, FUBAR, dictating Summit Ups.
Maybe a little 420 inspiration is what we need to squeeze out this last bit of writing and be done with our week once and for all. But no, CD9 (code 9), there's a MOS (mom over shoulder); there's a PIR (parent in room), we mean EIR (editor in room: we made that up).
But seriously - the Summit Up - does it not get you FOFL (falling on the floor laughing), or ROFL (rolling on the flooring laughing) or at least LOL (laughing out loud) sometimes?
BTW (by the way), did you know that the Oxford English Dictionary added LOL and BFF (best friends forever) to its lexicon last year? The OED! Witness the evolution of language, linguists!
Speaking of language and linguists, we've had some lyricists in town the last couple of weekends - wordsmiths from another mother, but brothers nonetheless. Welcome!
We really like what Macklemore has to say: "Hold your head up, there's a light in the sky; I know you're fed up, but you must try to survive; Each moment's precious, don't let life pass you by - Keep focused, keep your eyes on the prize."

The heroine must become a spiritual warrior. ... She must not discard nor give up what she has learned throughout her heroic quest, but learn to view her hard-earned skills and success not so much as a goal but as one part of the entire journey. She will begin to use these skills to work toward the larger quest of bringing people together, rather than her own individual gain. This is the sacred marriage of the feminine and masculine--when a woman can truly serve not only the needs of others but can value and be responsive to her own needs as well.

DENVER (February 7, 2013)--National Rifle Association President David Keene says he's confident that Congress won't approve an assault weapons ban or an ammunition limit in the wake of mass shootings in Colorado and Connecticut.
Keene called such gun control proposals "feel-good" measures that he says "won't do any good."
Keene was in Denver to meet with Colorado's Democratic governor and state lawmakers and met with The Associated Press for an interview before sitting down with state officials.
Keene said universal background checks are popular with politicians but won't work.
He said current background check systems are underfunded, and that requiring background checks on private sales would be a logistical mess.
Keene said Congress and the states should focus instead on improving the existing background-check database.

Nationwide, the Catholic Church has come out against the mandate for birth control coverage included in President Obama's health care overhaul.
The President did change part of the mandate today, but national Catholic leaders say they are reserving judgment until further details are released.
Father Frank Cosgrove, Pastor of Meridian's two Catholic churches, says it would go against the consciences of Catholic administrators to offer health care plans that pay for contraception, something that goes against Catholic teaching.
He says the Church is not making a national political stance, only defending it's rights.
"I think it's an encroachment on our religious freedom," says Cosgrove, "and I don't think it's just a Catholic issue."
"I think there are other groups that feel the same way, that it would affect their religious liberty which is so basic in our constitution."
Other religious institutions are concerned about this measure. The Mississippi Association of Independent Schools (MAIS) is closely monitoring all of the effects of the health care bill, and this particular issue has sparked concerns for officials at many independent schools.
"[Our concerns] may be a bit different than the Catholic Church, but we are still concerned about contraceptives, especially for teenagers because we want to promote abstinence," says Russell Christian Academy Headmaster Kevin Mosley.
"The other is the morning after pill, we believe life begins at conception."
Russell Christian does not currently offer health care plans through the school, but Mosley says the health car overhaul could change that in the future, and that the school would then have to shoulder a financial burden along with the moral questions the Catholic Church is now dealing with.

ECB'S Nowotny Calls for Continued Easy-Money Policies
The European Central Bank must maintain its easy-money policy if the euro zone is to return to sustainable economic growth, a member of the bank's governing council said Tuesday.
"There is certainly justification or a need to carry out accommodative, that is expansive, monetary policy," Ewald Nowotny, the governor of Austria's central bank, told journalists in Vienna.
While the currency bloc has overcome its recession, growth remains very weak and it is important that it not be choked off, he said.
Despite forecasts of weak growth and low inflation, Mr. Nowotny doesn't see deflation as a threat to the euro zone as a whole, but said that decreasing prices that some member countries are experiencing represent a "necessary process to restore competitiveness in these countries."
Mr. Nowotny said macroprudential measures would be favorable in countries where the ECB's current loose monetary policy could cause the economy to overheat.
He added that markets at the moment are rational and that when one looks at the 10-year yield, one could see that markets expect neither inflation nor deflation.
Mr. Nowotny is optimistic about the euro zone's growth potential. He said that it could actually grow faster in 2014 than forecast.
"When one looks at the risks, the upside risks–the probability that it will be better–should be, in my opinion, given more weight," he said.
Mr. Nowotny pointed to the better-than-expected economic developments in countries such as Portugal, Ireland and Spain. He added that countries such as Germany and his home country of Austria could even reach growth rates of 2% in 2014, driven by exports. ECB forecasts see the currency bloc's economy growing 1.1% in 2014, followed by 1.5% growth in 2015.

The White House Office of Management and Budget homepage currently features the following quote from the president:
Downsizing Blog
Federal Government is Lucrative "Industry"
The Bureau of Economic Analysis latest release of industry compensation levels shows that the average federal worker ranks up at the top along with employees in the finance and energy industries.
Federal Employees Continue to Prosper
The Bureau of Economic Analysis has released its annual data on compensation levels by industry. The data show that the pay advantage enjoyed by federal civilian workers over private-sector workers continues to expand. This state of affairs is a thumb in the eye of the private sector, which continues to struggle with high unemployment. Many private sector employees have been forced to take pay and benefit cuts while continuing to fund generous federal employee compensation with their taxes.
Another Government Bailout
The House is scheduled to pass another $26 billion bailout for state and local governments on Tuesday. The legislation provides another $10 billion for education and $16 billion to extend the increased share of Medicaid being paid for by the federal government since passage of the stimulus.
Convoluted Highway Funding
A common theme with federal programs that fund state and local activities is that the distribution formulas are highly complex and politically-driven. The result is that policymakers at the federal and state level are constantly jockeying for more money, while the general public remains largely ignorant as to where the money comes from and how it's spent.
The Two GOPs
As the fall elections approach, two factions within the congressional GOP have emerged. The first faction, which generally controls the Republican leadership, is short-term oriented and just wants to return the GOP to power in Congress. Riding the wave of voter discontent over the government's finances is a means to an end – the end being power.
Amtrak's New Rail Cars
Amtrak has announced that it will spend $300 million on 130 new rail cars, including sleeper and dining cars, for its long-distance trains. The government company's announcement came with the obligatory statement that the purchase will create 575 jobs. That's more than $500,000 per job.
City of Bell on Federal Dole
The city of Bell, CA recently made national headlines when it came to light that city officials have been receiving massive six-figure salaries. Bell taxpayers were so irate that police in riot gear were required to maintain control at a recent city council meeting.
Huge Deficits, Massive Debt
According to the administration's latest budget figures, the federal government is projected to run huge annual deficits throughout the coming decade. The actual figures could end up being considerably larger, particularly if policymakers continue to justify additional budget-busting for alleged "emergencies." As a previous blog shows, these deficits would be driven by excessive spending.
Spending is the Deficit Problem
The figure shows projected federal spending and revenues in coming years, according to the administration's new budget figures. The deficit is the gap between the lines:

Male Kegel Exercises—They're Real
Love and sex expert Sheri Meyers, PsyD, says that in order to pull off this arrangement, you have to understand the situation first. "There's a huge difference between 'friends with benefits' and 'no strings attached,'" she says. The first is that you're friends but you're also agreeing to get busy together, while the second is no expectations, just sex. Have an agreement ahead of time so you're clear on what's really going on.
It's important to consider if you're strong enough to handle the stress—and the pleasure—of becoming sexually involved, Meyers says: "You may enter the situation going 'I don't want commitment, this is so much easier,' but the minute you start kissing, the oxytocin stars flowing and your emotions get in the way." On the flip side, he could start wanting more which could get awkward if you don't feel the same.

Get ready for additional weekends of festivals, celebrations and open houses as the autumn temperatures and changing colors set a spectacular backdrop for Old Iron Works Days at Maramec Spring near St. James Saturday, Oct. 12, and Sunday, Oct. 13, and Rolla's 36th annual Arts and Crafts Festival Saturday, Oct. 19.
In addition PCRMC is hosting HeartChase Saturday, Oct. 12, – a fun way to promote healthy living and support to the American Heart Association.
Missouri S&T's Haunted Mine also opens Friday, Oct. 18, – a frightful, fun way to get into the spirit of Halloween.
And lastly we're excited to once again welcome the thousands of participants to the Route 66 Marching Band Classic Saturday, Oct. 19, – at Rolla High School on the beautiful new synthetic turf field.
Fall is also the perfect time to get out and explore a trail along Little Piney Creek in Lane Springs Recreation Area (located 12 miles south on U.S. Highway 63 South), take a stroll, jog or bike ride along Rolla's 13-mile-long pedestrian bike path, play a few sets of tennis at Ber Juan Tennis Complex or play a few rounds of disc golf at Ber Juan Park or Lions Club Park before winter sets in.
Historic Route 66, which runs through the heart of Rolla's downtown and along many of the outer roads, is also a favorite among classic car enthusiasts, and fans of The Mother Road and the Main Street of America.
Regardless of what activity you choose to participate in there is plenty to do in the Meramec region, where award-winning wineries, great restaurants and shopping, sparkling springs, abundant trout streams and several public golf courses are just around the corner.
If you feel a little more adventurous, the 1.5-million-acre Mark Twain National Forest, headquartered in Rolla (401 Fairgrounds Road), offers an endless variety of parks, trails, streams and campgrounds.
Be sure to check out the Mark Twain National Forest Website at www.fs.usda.gov/ mtnf for updates on the fall colors, special places to visit and where the best places are to view the fall foliage, wildlife and limitless recreational opportunities.
For a complete listing of the many activities in the Rolla region, I would encourage you check out the Rolla Area Chamber of Commerce's tourism site at www.visitrolla.com – which has wonderful information for residents and visitors alike! Enjoy the upcoming festivities and have a safe week!

Songs by Debut Year:
This show was part of the "1994 Fall Tour."
I was still a huge noob at this point but by now I had a few tapes and was starting to get to know more songs. There were still a TON of songs that I didn't know though. All I can remember about the show is really liking Lizards and them doing Amazing Graze with no mics at the edge of the stage. I also recall the theater being pretty damn tiny and our seats being in the VERY last row up in the balcony. What I do remember pretty well is hanging out before and after the show with my friend Chris and Nate. Chris is a really "interesting" guy and one of the first people I knew that liked Phish. He was lucky enough to go to the Halloween show that year while I was not because it was on a Monday night and I was in 11th grade. The Erie show was on a Sunday so I guess my parents let me go since I didn't have to miss a day of school and I'm sure I PROMISED that I'd be home at a decent time. Chris had an extra ticket and he wanted to either get a blow job from a hippy girl for it OR light it on fire in front of a hippy to make them cry. Like I said, Chris is an interesting guy. Famous Chris quote from back in the day, "I fuckin' hate hippies but I love their music." I still stay in contact with Chris and even see a show or two with him now and then. The last show I saw with him was at SPAC in the summer of 2010. I imagine he was one of the few people on lot that day who brought their Gloc with them, you know, just in case. Chris also had an extra pavilion ticket that day that he couldn't find anyone to offer him more than $20 for. He wanted, EXACTLY what he paid for it. Down to the fucking penny. He ended up not selling the ticket to anyone and just brought it in with him. He would rather eat the ticket than not get paid full face value for it. Hilarious. Back to Erie, Chris didn't end up making anyone cry that night and I imagine he just sold the ticket to someone that didn't look like a hippy to him. Can't remember if anything else fun happened beforehand, I think we did some nitrous and I think that Chris smoked PCP with some guy in the parking garage!? After the show, I needed to get home ASAP but there was a problem...my parent's car was gone. I guess I parked it in a fire lane. Whoops! I eventually found out where they towed it, hitched a ride to the place, had to have my parents give the guys their CC info to pay for it and then drove BACK to the venue to pick up Chris and Nate. The guy who gave me a ride only had room for me so they had to wait until I got back. So I park, legally, and start walking around looking for the guys. I'm walking down the sidewalk and I saw someone that looked EXACTLY like Page pass me. I turn the corner and there's Mike hanging out talking to a couple guys and Trey standing a few feet away talking to some other folks. Holy shit! I ended up meeting both of them, shaking hands and getting autographs on my ticket stub. They were, of course, super nice and more than happy to talk to a couple freaked out 11th graders. If my car didn't get towed that night I never would have met them. Funny how things work out like that.
Bummed is what I WAS...

Scripture: Luke 24:45 NIV Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.
Observation: Jesus had just been crucified and had risen from the dead. He was now walking with two disciples who had not yet figured out the identity of this healthy man walking with them. Jesus was not just interested that they know the scriptures, but that they would understand. He was explaining the scriptures that referred to his coming to die for our sins.
Application: The Holy Spirit now has the ministry of opening my mind and giving me understanding. As I read the scriptures, I pay attention to thoughts that cross my mind. Often a verse is linked to another verse I have read, or to something that I have experienced in my life, or something that is presently happening. I gain understanding in how the scripture applies to me.
Prayer: Holy Spirit, I am blest that you help me understand and apply the scriptures to my life. Use me to help others. Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

When your goal is health, you want to choose foods that are low in
sodium. Excess sodium intake is linked to: hypertension/high blood
pressure and heart disease, fluid retention and kidney stones. The
current recommendation is to consume less than 2,400 mg of sodium per
day. That equals about 1 teaspon of table salt. Many health and fitness
experts recommend a daily intake of 1,000 mg. Needless to say, that is
substantially lower than most American's eat. You will probably be
amazed at your salt intake if you started measuring it. During
pregnancy and shortly thereafter, you are more likely to have fluid
retention. So if you want to be healthy and look lean, keep your salt
intake way down!
-Buy "lower-sodium" foods in your diet, whenever possible.
- Check sodium-content on food labels: choose lower sodium brands.
- Don't add salt when cooking.
- Go easy when adding salt at the table.
- Reduce intake of salty snacks.
- Reduce intake of fast food.
- Stay away from processed meats and cheeses
- Buy lower-sodium breakfast cereals
-Check canned foods for sodium content. If using foods canned in water, rinse thoroughly before eating.
- In general, look for FRESH and NATURAL foods
Put your health first. Yes, first. Above your kids, your husband and your job. Sounds strange huh? Most moms put themselves last on the priority list. There's just not enough time, so you surely can't make health a priority. It would be selfish of you to care for yourself, right? Wrong! Chances are that you are the back bone of your family. When your kids get hurt, you have to be there to take care of them. When your husband gets sick, it's you again. The reality is that you can't afford and don't have time to get hurt or get sick. But you will. You absolutely will get sick or hurt if you don't take care of yourself. There's no cheating in health. You can't postpone it and say that you'll do it when you're kids are off to college or when you retire. The longer you go without taking care of yourself, the longer and more severe the consequence for neglect. It's a lot easier to get a few walks in a week than to be in the hospital and follow up with rehab after a heart attack. I don't mean to be extreme but the fact is that heart disease is the Number 1 killer of women in America. It's a pretty easy thing to fix. Eat well and exercise.
What you won't do for yourself, you will do for your family. So do it for your family. Eat well and exercise so that you can be a healthy role model for your kids. The fact is that they all take your lead. Aren't you the one cooking the meals? If you aren't eating well, neither will they. Your children should see that mom values her health and enjoys exercise. Maybe your husband will even be inspired by your increased energy. And they will all benefit from you being in a better mood, less stressed and less tired. So now, how to do it? How do we get you to make yourself a priority?
You need a plan. How many times have you said that you are going to start exercising only to be back in your old routine of skipping it just days later? The same obstacles that stood before you last time will stand before you again. You need to have a plan to overcome what held you back last time (and the time before, and the time before). Take a quiet moment and pull out your calendar / appointment book. I know you're going to tell me that you're busy from morning until night and can't fit another thing in. True, but now you're going to change your priorities. Let's take a look at where things can change. Be honest with me, how much time do you spend watching tv? I love the shows as much as the next gal but the fact is that it's wasted time. Are you a morning person or an evening person? You're tired no matter what so would it really make a difference if you went to bed 45 minutes later or woke up 45 minutes earlier? The tiredness from the loss of sleep is far made up with the energy from exercise. I'm a morning person so I set my alarm clock one hour before the rest of my family wakes up. This is the only hour of the day that's just for me. What can you do in that hour? Go for a run, watch FitTV, do a workout video or get out for an early morning gym class. Did you know Netflix and blockbuster online offer fitness videos? That's a great way to keep your workout fresh.
Or, if you have stroller age children, set aside an hour to do a stroller walk or join a Stroller Strides class. It's a great way to get out with your baby and get in a workout. Whatever you do, find 4 days per week that you can schedule a workout. If it's not on your schedule like an appointment, it won't happen. You need to keep that appointment with yourself just like you would with any other on your calendar. Why do I say 4 days per week? 3 days of exercise is actually all you need to maintain health. 5 days is what you need if you want to lose weight. 4 days is a reasonable compromise. And, if for some reason you miss a day, you'll still be getting in enough to maintain health. If you are able to get in an extra day, then all the better.
It doesn't have to look like exercise. Yes, I do recommend that you get cardiovascular, strength and flexibility in to your workout one way or another. But you can get more active in lots of untraditional ways. My 5-year old's favorite game is tag. He and I play, non stop. As soon as one person is tagged, the other person is "it". We both collapse after half a dozen chase sessions gasping for air (and laughter). Next time you take your kids to the playground, don't just sit on the bench and watch. Join in. Dare try the monkey bars or just run around with them. If you have a baby, get on the floor and play with her. Use her as a weight as you lunge or squat with her in you arms. "Bench press" with her as the weight or put her on your legs as you do sit ups. Make your kids part of your workout and they will get the message that exercise can be fun. But it's not just about exercise, we need to eat well in order to support health and energy.
Tired of dieting? You should be. They don't work and they are a detriment to your health. Here are some key components to add healthy foods in to your diet. Sit down and create a master food shopping list. Ideally, make it on your computer so you don't have to re-create it each week. Make sure it is chock full of healthy fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and whole grains. Make a commitment to do this shopping each week so that your pantry and your refrigerator are packed with great choices. The worst thing you can do when you want to eat healthy is to have a bare kitchen. Then you feel deprived, hungry and desperate to find anything to eat. When you have lots of choices on hand, it makes it easier to make better choices. If possible, shop at local natural markets. Grocery stores like Whole Foods, Wild Oats and even Trader Joe's have far more for you to choose from. You will be buying less processed foods and you won't have to spend much time reading labels because you know that they buy quality products. Another tip: plan ahead. Plan what meals you are going to make each week so that it's not a spontaneous decision when you're desperate and hungry. Whenever possible, pre-prepare meals for the week and always freeze extra servings so you have healthful meals to grab. Serve a fruit and vegetable serving at every meal. Too often we eat our veggies only at dinner. You can get spinach in to eggs, tomato and lettuce on a sandwich, avocado in a quesadilla, etc. Kids don't like veggies? Hide them. I keep a bag of chopped frozen kale in my freezer. When I make smoothies for my kids, I throw a handful in the blender. They don't taste it or know about it, but they get vitamins and nutrients from one of the healthiest of vegetables.
So now, I've got you eating a little better and exercising regularly. But that's not total health. You need to rejuvenate and refresh your body and mind for total balance. Set aside a regular time each day for just 2 minutes to be quiet. Yes, just 120 seconds is all I am asking for. I love rituals and think that you should have a special pillow, candle and / or token that sets the stage for relaxation. When I ask moms to meditate, they respond by saying that they don't know how and don't have the time. So, all I ask for is that you sit for 2 minutes and be still. Focus on three words. Peace, health and harmony. When your mind wanders (and it will), just kindly and gently bring it back. You will be amazed at what a difference this little break from your day will make. Even if your kids are screaming in the background, learn how to find a little peace from within. By the way, this is meditating but we're just not calling it that.
We are part of a generation that finds it important to fill every moment with busyness and things to do. I am hoping that you will inspire the next generation to slow down and appreciate the health that we have. It is my hope that you reach Optimom health. It all starts with you, so please, make mommy come first.

Teen bicyclist killed after struck by car in Raceland, police say
Published: Friday, April 26, 2013 at 9:31 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, April 27, 2013 at 10:58 a.m.
A 17-year-old bicyclist was killed after being struck by a car late Friday night on an unlit section of La. 308 in the Alidore community, State Police said.
Sergio Sumano Ortega, of Raceland, was pronounced dead at the scene, just north of Raceland Junior High School, State Police said.
Ortega was traveling south when a Ford F-150 hit him from behind about 8 p.m., police said. Ortega flew off his bike, onto the road, where the driver hit him again.
Andre Leblanc, 48, of Raceland, is that driver and was not injured. He agreed to a breath test, and police said he was not driving drunk.
Both lanes of the highway near Brocato Lane were blocked Friday night, and traffic was backed up around 9:30 p.m. Traffic was moving again within about 90 minutes.
Police said Ortega did not have any illuminated devices on the bike.
As in all fatal crashes, officials will test Ortega's blood to determine if he was intoxicated. Those results are pending.

BERKELEY -- This still is the beginning for Cal's football program under first-year coach Sonny Dykes, but time is running out for the team's nine scholarship seniors.
For defensive end Dan Camporeale, Saturday night's game against Oregon State is one of six remaining chances to make a statement.
"So for the rest of my life," Camporeale said, "I can say I'm proud of what we did."
No one in the program is feeling that sense of achievement so far. The Bears (1-5, 0-3 Pac-12) have lost five games to Football Bowl Subdivision opponents by an average margin of 24 points. Beating the Beavers (5-1, 3-0), led by NCAA passing leader Sean Mannion, won't be easy.
While he's rebuilding around freshman quarterback Jared Goff and a core of young players, Dykes appreciates those on his roster who have made a longer investment.
"I don't think anybody has started any of that talk of let's just get through this year. We're just trying to win a football game," Dykes said. "I think the seniors want to do it, everybody wants to do it.
"Our team is desperate to get a win."
Camporeale said there is no division on the team, no finger pointing.
"We're not happy with where we are, we're fed up with it," he said. "I think there is frustration, but we're using it in the right way."
That means trying to address Dykes' long to-do list, including starting faster, finishing stronger and almost everything in between.
"We haven't played well in a while," Dykes said. "But I think they are believing in what we're preaching in terms of building a culture, building a program from the foundation up.
"Like everything else, when you're 18 to 22 years old, you want to see results yesterday. They do understand how important it is to do things the way we're doing them."

Decorate a box and have kids fill it with favorite things. Long after they've outgrown the box, you'll have a keepsake reminder for them.
Look for clues with Blue, weekdays on Nick Jr.
Help your child select the paper she would like to use to cover the box. Cut out pieces large enough to cover the box and the lid. Wrap the lid and the outside of the box in paper, but don't secure it in place. (Just check that you have enough paper and that your child likes how it looks.) Remove the paper and use the glue stick to cover the surface of the box and lid with glue. Rewrap the box and the lid in the paper and secure any loose edges with sticky tape.
With a pencil, help your child trace the bottom of the box and the lid on construction paper or felt. Cut out the paper or felt and use these pieces to line the bottom of the box and the inside of the lid. Secure them with the glue stick. Line the inside of the box the same way.
Help your child make a nameplate for her box by writing her name on a piece of colored paper with crayons or colored markers, cutting it out, and gluing it to the top of the box. Squeeze glue around the cut edge of the nameplate and have your child sprinkle glitter on top. After the glue dries, shake off the excess glitter onto a piece of newspaper and return it to the glitter container.
To make sure the box will close when you're done, put the lid on before your child starts decorating it. Kids can add stickers and glue on pom-poms, felt shapes, pipe cleaners, glitter, and Blue's Clues coloring pages like Color Blue,  Blue's Paw Prints,  Blue's Rhyming Storybook, and Blue's "Favorite Things" Journal. Talk with your child about what favorite things she'd like to keep in the box and encourage her to draw pictures of her favorite things to cut out and glue to the box.
After the box has dried completely, have your child place her favorite things inside. For example, pictures of friends and special relatives, favorite small stuffed animals, toys and games, art supplies--even a piece of her old security blanket.

Last April, two women were arrested after they tried to board a plane in Liverpool bound for Berlin with a dead man in a wheelchair wearing sunglasses. Charges have been dropped because authorities could not prove the time of death.
The dead man, 91-year-old Kurt Willi Jarant, was due to board a plane with his wife and daughter when airport officials decided they should check his pulse. The pair say they thought Jarant was asleep (?!). A Lawyer for the Crown Prosecution Service told Sky News:
Having carefully reviewed a file of evidence presented to me by police, I have concluded that there is insufficient evidence to bring any charges in relation to the death of Kurt Willi Jarrant."
Jarant was a German national, so perhaps they knew he was dead and were trying to save some cash by flying him economy back to Germany? Shipping bodies is expensive.
(Thanks to boobookitteh for the tip, and for reminding me that I need to watch Weekend At Bernie's asap)

Summit County's Flight For Life program held an avalanche beacon training Tuesday on a technology new to the state that will assist in responding to emergencies.
The beacon receiver, which is five times more powerful than a hand-held beacon, hangs approximately four meters below the helicopter and enables a rescue team to receive beacon signals and locate victims within an avalanche area.
The skier or trapped person has to be wearing a beacon in order for the Flight For Life beacon to pick up their signal.
The rescue tool, with only a handful of other such beacons nationwide will serve as a resource statewide in responding to avalanche emergencies.
"We will dispatch to areas in Colorado that have an emergency," said Kevin Kelble, flight paramedic for Flight for Life. "As the first in Colorado to have this technology, this beacon equipped helicopter is an asset in mountainous areas like Summit County."
During the training, pilots navigated an area to pinpoint four target beacons "buried" in an area to simulate an avalanche.
"This is an excellent tool to help us improve avalanche rescue operations. With the external beacon we have an immense receiving range and can cover large amounts of terrain quickly, and safely search areas that are still dangerous with secondary avalanches," Kelble said. "We can also use it statewide and in difficult landing terrain that's tough to access from the ground."
When it comes to searching for a victim immersed by an avalanche, time is critical. With the beacon receiver equipped helicopter, Flight for Life pilots can pick up a signal from a victim from 150-200 meters.
Having a helicopter search an avalanche path from the air should make for a more efficient search, allowing rescue crews on the ground to zero in on the victims' locations and begin digging for them.
"We can search a much larger area much faster," Kelble said.
During the simulated search, the Flight for Life helicopter hovered about 30 feet off the ground, sweeping back and forth in a grid pattern across the slide path.
Manuel Genswein, an avalanche beacon expert, came in from Switzerland to conduct the training Tuesday explaining the grid search used to pinpoint avalanche victims.
"It's important to make sure that you get complete coverage," Weinsen said. "You can't just do a perfect square, but the sensitivity is pretty good on these things."
He and the rest of the Flight for Life team emphasized that while this new technology improves the resources of avalanche rescue teams, in no way is it a substitute for being properly trained to travel in avalanche terrain, and to know how to use personal avalanche equipment.
The chances of a victim surviving an avalanche if not found after the first 15 minutes begin to decrease steeply, and according to Weinsen, the helicopter arriving on the scene 15-30 minutes after an accident is a "best-case scenario" dependent on location.
"It's an extremely powerful tool that can pick up beacon from very far away," Kelble said. "Rescue teams can search areas that are still dangerous and we can also cover a huge amount of area very quickly."
The beacon receiver can also pinpoint the locations of numerous victims by marking the areas where a signal is picked up for ground rescue teams.
The antenna in the beacons transmitter works off an electromagnetic signal transmitted by ground beacons. The receiver picks up the signal while notifying the pilot of the location based on audio alerts.
As the signal strengthens, the audio alert gets louder alerting the pilot of the proximity.
Loren Courtney, a pilot for Flight for Life with experience with the beacon receiver in Salt Lake City, aided in the training Tuesday.
"The training went really well," he said. "There's a learning curve with using this technology but all of our pilots got in between 5-8 meters of the target beacons."
Every year hundreds of people - typically skiers, snowboarders or snowmobilers - get caught in
