I was rescued by a shelter called, Camp Kitty. It seemed my mom wanted to add one more member to her family. When she came to visit me I was hard to find. I must admit I stayed under the couch at my foster parents' for a while. Once I was in her arms though I snoozed on her lap, I think that was how I caught her hook line and sinker-since then we have been inseperable!

LANDOVER, MD – When the Washington Redskins traded a host of future NFL Draft picks to move up and take Baylor's Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Robert Griffin III at No. 2 overall, watchers assumed they'd just landed their quarterback of the future.
But the NFL community was left scratching its head when Washington in the fourth round took Michigan State signal caller Kirk Cousins.
Redskins quarterbacks coach Matt LaFleur, a former Saginaw Valley State University standout, was grinning ear-to-ear.
"From a quarterback perspective, any time you get two quality players like what we were able to get, you have to feel good about that," said LaFleur, a Mount Pleasant native. "It's pretty obvious how we feel about Robert. We see him as a franchise quarterback.
"However, when the fourth round came around, and Kirk was still on the board, we had him valued pretty high and couldn't pass up that value at that point and time."
The Redskins are banking on both quarterbacks to succeed at the game's highest level, especially Griffin, whom Washington traded three first-round picks and a second to have the opportunity to draft.
"Robert came from more of a spread system (at Baylor), where he didn't have as many progression reads," LaFleur said. "Kirk comes from more of a pro-style offense. Some of the stuff he did in college is the same as what we do here.
"For the most part with Robert, there is no limit to his talent on game tape. He can make any throw on the field. It is very rare that you see a quarterback run a sub-4.4 (40-yard dash). You turn on his game tape, and you see everything you want to see in a quarterback.
"He presents that much more of a challenge to a defense, who can defend a play perfectly, but he has the speed and elusiveness to get outside of the pocket and make off-schedule plays. Kirk is more of a pocket passer who runs the play as designed, where Robert makes plays you can't account for as a defensive coach.
"Both of those guys have all the tangibles you look for. Both of them have the leadership skills, and they're both very intelligent. They both handle themselves the right way, and they're great leaders. They're everything you want in a quarterback."
Instead of seeing a brewing quarterback controversy, LaFleur sees an embarrassment of riches.
He noted the significant injuries to starting signal callers last season — like Peyton Manning, Jay Cutler and Matt Schaub — that made the development of a top-flight backup even more vital.
"This is really the first time since we've been here that we've had a very, very solid and complete roster with a lot of depth," LaFleur said. "That gives us a great chance to do something special out there, but ultimately you have to go out and do it.
"Regardless of who we have playing for us, there is always pressure to have those guys ready. My job is to make sure they're as prepared as possible, in as short a time as possible."
At Saginaw Valley from 2000-02, LaFleur set 10 records as a quarterback. He helped coach the Houston Texans to the franchise's first winning season and the No. 1 passing offense in 2009. After spending 2011 coaching veterans Rex Grossman and John Beck for the Redskins, LaFleur now heads into the upcoming season with a pair of rookies under his tutelage.
"They'll be the first rookie quarterbacks I've worked with who have been drafted," LaFleur said. "We've invested a lot into these guys with those picks, so, obviously, it's very exciting around here, and we definitely have high expectations."
Griffin's and Cousin's drafting marked the first time a team has taken two quarterbacks in the first four rounds of the draft since 1989, when the Dallas Cowboys took Troy Aikman and Steve Walsh with the No. 1 overall picks in the regular and supplemental drafts.
The last time Washington took two quarterbacks in the same draft was 1994, when the Redskins took Heath Shuler with the No. 3 overall pick and followed it by taking Gus Frerotte in the seventh round.
Three years later, Frerotte was named to the Pro Bowl, while Shuler went down as a draft bust.
Fast-forward to 2012, and Washington has taken an athletically gifted, Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback in Griffin — who experienced great success in college, but has also had knee injuries and at one time was projected to play in the NFL as a wide receiver.
And in the fourth round, the Redskins have a quarterback prospect in Cousins, who set multiple passing records at Michigan State and is highly praised for his quick release, decision-making and intangibles.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is diabetes?
Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce enough
insulin or insulin is not used effectively. The body needs
insulin in order to convert food into energy.
2. Is diabetes a serious
disease? Diabetes with its complications is the fifth
leading cause of death by disease in the United States. These
complications include blindness, kidney disease, heart failure,
and amputation.
3. Who is likely to
develop diabetes? Individuals at a greater risk of
developing diabetes are people increasing in age, people who are
overweight, people with a history of diabetes in their family,
women who have given birth to babies weighing more than nine
pounds, women who have a history of gestational diabetes, and
African-Americans, Latinos, Asian and Pacific Islanders, and
Native Americans.
4. What are the symptoms
of diabetes? Frequent urination, excessive thirst, dramatic
weight loss, fatigue, blurring vision, wounds that are slow to
heal, tingling in the toes or feet, skin and gum infections,
bladder infections, and genital itching.
5. Isn't it obvious you
have diabetes? Not always. In fact, out of the 25.8 million
Americans who have diabetes, about 7 million don't know they
have the disease. This is because it often does not produce
symptoms or the symptoms are misinterpreted.
6. How can I find out if
I have diabetes? Diabetes can be quickly and easily
diagnosed by a simple blood test in your doctor's office.
7. What is the treatment
for diabetes? Type 1 diabetes is treated with insulin
injections, exercise, and a special diet. Type 2 diabetes is
treated with diet and exercise, although pills and/or insulin
therapy are required in most cases. Both Type 1 and Type 2
treatments should include lifestyle management programs that
help the person with diabetes regain control over his or her
diabetes and life.
8. Can diabetes be cured
with insulin injections? Insulin is a treatment, not a cure.
Currently there is no cure for diabetes, although promising
advances have been made in the areas of diabetes research, such
as improved ways of monitoring blood sugar levels and delivering
insulin to the body.
9. Is the incidence of
diabetes increasing? Yes. 1.6 million new cases of diabetes
were diagnosed in people aged 20 years or older in 2007. This increase has been attributed to the
growing number of people who are overweight and lead sedentary
lifestyles. People are also living longer, and we are seeing an
increase of diabetes among the elderly.
10. Is there anything I can do to reduce my
risk of developing diabetes? Yes. Eat well-balanced meals,
maintain your ideal weight, and exercise. See your physician for
more information.

Digging Deeper: Unearthing the Treasures of Famine Foods
They're called poor people's foods. Plants foraged by starving folk and scavenged when crops succumb to drought: They're what you eat just to get by. Many are unusually rich in nutrients, have medicinal value and may even taste good. But because they're free for the taking they get little respect.
Scientists in fields such as ethnobotany study them and the ways they are eaten. But the true experts are indigenous people all over the world who've inherited them as part of their culture.
To the rest of us, who rely for our food on an alarmingly few species of plants grown on an industrial scale, these wild edibles are a gardener's curiosity that may hold the key to a more sustainable way of feeding the world in the years to come.
A treasure house of knowledge about survival plants can be found on the Famine Foods Web site , sponsored by the horticulture department of Purdue University. Browsing through its database, you might be surprised to see a number of foods that are in your yard, such as the leaves of forsythia — eaten in China with oil and salt — or a garden narcissus that the French turn into flour. Will times ever be so bad that you'll need to nibble the edible leaves of your expensive Japanese maple? Unlikely. But it's useful to know that a pesky species like shepherd's purse, a common weed, is a nutritional powerhouse, and that roots from the evil, tree-smothering kudzu vine, steamed and eaten, could someday save your life.
For the most part, though, these names are mysterious and surprising in their numbers. There are well over 1,000 listed, and many more could be discovered by searching beyond the world's standard fare. It seems that all parts of a plant are tried — leaves, stems, root, seeds, bark — until someone who is as indomitable as the plant itself finds a way to consume it.
In one entry after another, these foods are made tastier by the addition of salt, oils, chile peppers and other condiments. At times they're blended with staples such as common flours to stretch the supply. Some must be repeatedly soaked and drained, or boiled, to reduce bitterness.
Even more important are the tricks to reduce the toxicity that some foods possess, knowledge that's in danger of being lost as these plants lose their habitats or fall further into obscurity. As the world's population expands, we'll need crops that grow when nothing else will.
Robert L. Freedman, who created and compiled the database and whose "Notes on the Famine Foods Website" gives a fine account of the subject, writes that there is no time to be lost in studying and rescuing both the plants and their lore. "Among these, known famine plant species may provide alternatives to costly Green Revolution approaches to providing staple crops for areas of the world in greatest need of food production self-sufficiency."
And who knows which among them might someday be culinary darlings? I recall a native poverty food of ours, the eating of which was once so shameful that its remains were quickly buried. It was called the lobster.

McDermott, 46, who previously announced their separation, seeks joint custody of their daughters, Collette, 12, and Charlotte, 2, according to the Los Angeles Superior Court papers filed Friday.
The papers cite the usual irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.
McDermott, best known from TV's The Practice, and Rose, 39, an actress, were married in 1995 and separated in March 2007, according to the papers. McDermott, who played an attorney on TV, is acting as his own lawyer in the divorce, according to the papers.

After graduation from gifted-students high school I took part in two national-wide entrance university exams and ranked 20th and 3rd among over 1,000,000 attendants, back home in Iran. I started medical school in 1991 and graduated in 1998 ranking among the top five students in the faculty. My medical degree is from Tehran University of Medical Science which is the most prestigious medical university in Iran.
After graduation, to fulfill my obligation to the government, I worked as head of Family Health program in government health network from 1998 till 2001.
After fulfillment of my obligation, I took part in a very competitive Ph.D. entrance exam for Nutritional Science which is held for medical doctors and was accepted. During my Ph.D. program I ranked number one in the faculty. I graduated from Ph.D. program in 2007. My Ph.D. is from Shahid Beheshti University which ranks number one in Nutritional Science among all universities offering this program in Iran.
Immediately after graduation, I secured employment with "Clinical Nutrition and Diet Therapy Department" of "Nutrition and Food Technology Faculty", Shahid Beheshti University as an Assistant Professor, the position I held until I immigrated to Canada. I was awarded with the "Faculty member with the most accomplishment" award in Shahid Beheshti University in 2009. I also supervised masters and Ph.D. dissertations, published many articles in scientific journals and presented articles in congresses.
Besides teaching, I worked as a nutritionist and dietary specialist in the clinic of "Nutrition and Food Technology Faculty", in my own office and in private clinic of Professor Kimiagar (a well-known and guru of nutritional science) in Iran.
Then I finished "Holistic Nutrition program" in "Canadian School of Natural Nutrition" in Toronto and certified as a "Registered Holistic Nutritionist" in 2013. As you might be aware the new approach in medical science is addressing each person as a unique individual with unique personality, character, mentality, physical and mental situation and needs. I believe the combination of my conventional and holistic nutritional knowledge is the best way to help my clients.

Don't use Cooper / Mastercraft Snow Tires
I'm very sorry to have to post this.
I've been a satisfied user of Mastercraft Glacier Grip snowtires on my Prius for three winters.
But I just got burned by Cooper, and their "new" Glacier Grips are not usable for Prius.
I always get 51 to 53mpg** on my summer tires (Goodyear Integrity).
When I switch to my "winter" tires (Mastercraft Glacier Grip) I used to get around 47-48mpg.
(not bad for aggressive snow tires).
But a month ago, one of my Glacier Grips got damaged by a pothole.
So I got (what I thought) were identical, new Mastercraft Glacier Grip tires.
39mpg !!!!!!!!!! WTF????????
So, I put my summer tires back on early, and instantly got my 51mpg back.
I immediately contacted the dealer, then the distributor, and finally Cooper Customer Service.
Cooper Tire Company did their best to convince me that it was all my fault:
-I was just imagining it, and my new tires got the same mileage as the old tires
-It was my fault for overinflating the tires by 1psi.
-It was my fault for underinflating the tires by 1psi.
-New tires cannot be expected to get the same mileage as worn out, bald tires.
-I was not making a fair comparison of mileages (** see notes below).
-I did not know what I was talking about.
-My car must obviously be defective.
Anyway, after weeks and repeated conversations the truth finally came out:
Cooper is putting ABRASIVE COMPOUNDS in their snow tires to make the tire surface rougher,
and improve traction.
Apparently, at the expense of 25% of my fuel mileage.
Bottom line: Cooper offers NO apology, refund, exchange, or credit for tires that produce poor mileage. If your Cooper tires cause your Prius to get below normal mileage, TOUGH!
So now, I have a brand new set of 185-65-15 snow tires. And if I put them on my Prius, it will cost
me over $500 in extra fuel cost over the life of the tires.
Anybody need a set of tire-swings for the tree in their back yard?
Caveat Emptor
** NOTE: All of the above mileages are quoted for the round trip Buffalo, NY to Albany and return.
on the I-90, clean, dry pavement, in cruise control at 65 to 68MPH.
I make this trip at least 15 times a year, and my mileage is very consistent.

I see. You would rather slide into a bridge abatement at 60 MPH (and 51 MPG) then have some traction? You're brilliant.
To properly calculate MPG you need to isolate a plethora of variables. Just filling your tank, noting the mileage and then having Mum and Dad do the math for you won't cut it.
Incredible. Imagine that! Making snow tires with an unequivocally great grip!
Stay on your side of the road; your logic scares hell out of me.

On Sept. 2, 2012, the Grand Valley State volleyball team won a pair of five-set matches on the same day for the first time in nearly 25 years. On Friday night (Sept. 13), GVSU pulled off the rare feat again, notching five-set victories over Texas Woman's and a dramatic comeback win against #6 Washburn.
The Lakers used different performances to win each of the five-set battles. GVSU won sets one, two, and five to knock off Texas Woman's (25-13, 25-19, 22-25, 19-25, 15-10) in its opening match of the Oredigger Classic in Golden, Colo. Against #6 Washburn on Friday night, Grand Valley State picked up wins in sets two, four, and five to bounce the Ichabods (19-25, 26-24, 22-25, 25-20, 15-13).

Dumb move by Marquez, at the end of the day it's all the same work for a different pay. Marquez is going to find out soon it aint pretty if he keeps acting like the boss.
Pacquiao = No problem if you don't want to fight anymore.
Pacquiao = Making 15plus mills per fight.
Marquez = Making 2-3 mills a fight.
Marquez = If Pacquiao want the fight we can do it again I want good money or at least 50/50
Pacquiao = It's ok Marquez, you're the better man, you knocked me out.
Marquez = ok I'll take 40/60, let just fight again and make some good money for us.
Pacquiao = No more Marquez, you're the better man. Just fight other guys like Rios or Bradley.
Marquez = But I want good money and that's against you.
Pacquiao = Yea you already proved that you're the better man, no more ok.
Pacquiao = Making 15 plus mills a fight again.
Marquez = Making his usual 2-3 mills.

he doesn't want the 5th fight because it will be another months of training and juicing. Marquez knows the possibility of losing

Fair enough Marquez could pick who he wants to fight, Bradley and Rios are very good opponents.

If JMM walks away from a Pacquiao fight and decides to fight Bradley, I'm almost certain Bob will make Pacquiao vs Bradley II and give JMM Rios.
JMM wants that belt and he ain't fighting a Rios type this stage of his career.
Any combination of 4 is good to me.

Because PacMan gave him a rematch after actually winning all previous three fights. Pac could chose Rios or Bradley and earn same money. He gave a 4th fight lose it and now Marquez doesnt give a rematch to Pac after officially winning only one fight, where is the logic?

Dictators and sonnets
Fiona McCann
Uruguayan writer Mario Benedetti died yesterday, news which fills me with the kind of dangerous nostalgia he wrote so much about. Benedetti, a writer I read when I lived in Buenos Aires at a time that is already retreating too quickly into my past, lived in exile from his beloved Montevideo for ten years during Uruguay's military dictatorship. Geografías, a story from the 1984 collection of the same name, was the one that stayed with me of Benedetti stories I read during the hot summer in my sweltering home on Mexico street. Rereading it now brings me back to that place in all its familiar detail, and I am heady with the heat of nostalgia.
It's the story of two friends, exiled from Uruguay, who spend their time in a Paris cafe trying to recall the details of Montevideo in a game they call Geographies. Their game is interrupted by the appearance of one of the players' former lover, Delia, who it emerges has been in jail all the time they have been in exile. Through her, the two men learn of how far their carefully tended memories of Montevideo are from the city's changed reality. When Roberto is finally alone with his former lover, he talks to her of "la nostalgia como detergente, la nostalgia como corrosión, la nostalgia como consuelo" (nostalgia as cleaner, nostalgia as corrosion, nostalgia as comfort). In the end it is clear, as Roberto makes a vain attempt to recapture their youthful intimacy, that there is no going back.
It's a theme that held particular resonance for Benedetti himself, whose own return to Uruguay after ten years in exile – "the unexile" as he called coming back – was complicated by his disappointment at the changes in his homeland.
Though Benedetti wrote often about the political situation that had driven him to exile at a time when military dictatorships were flourishing all over Latin America, and those who spoke against them were "disappeared". "An intellectual's weapon is writing, but sometimes people react as if it were a firearm," he once said. "A writer can do a lot to change the situation, but as far as I know, no dictatorship has fallen because of a sonnet."

Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Download Brochure
Tuesday, February 11
7:00 am Registration and Morning Coffee
8:00 Plenary Keynote Session (Click Here For More Details)
Sponsored by
9:15 Refreshment Break in the Exhibit Hall with Poster Viewing
10:25 Chairperson's Remarks
Manish Muzumdar, Senior Vice President, Products, Remedy Informatics
10:30 Translational Science Approaches to Reduce Phase III Attrition
Kalpana Merchant, Ph.D., CSO, Tailored Therapeutics, Neuroscience, Eli Lilly
Neurodegenerative, other neurologic and psychiatric disorders are syndromes that are defined by clinical instruments that do not have adequate specificity and sensitivity. Addressing the unmet needs of these chronic, debilitating disorders represents one of the most urgent areas of scientific research. However, these disorders are heterogeneous in their etiology, pathophysiology as well as progression course. Therefore, patient responses to marketed and investigational drugs are also heterogeneous and not predictable. This has led to failures of clinical trials of several investigational drugs. This talk will focus on translational science approaches directed at addressing gaps in key factors that contribute to clinical failures: (a) wrong therapeutic target, (b) wrong does/dosing regiment and (c) wrong patient population. Examples of recent successes utilizing genetic/genomic, imaging, physiological, or biochemical biomarkers will be discussed to demonstrate the impact of timely integration of translational science approaches into drug discovery and development.
11:00 Translational Safety of Immunostimulatory and ADC Cancer Biologics
Rakesh Dixit, Ph.D., DABT, Vice President, R&D; Global Head, Biologics Safety Assessment, MedImmune
With technological advances in generation of immune-stimulatory and armed biologics, the translational safety and toxicology predictions face unprecedented challenges. There is now renewed focus on a better understanding of translational immune-pharmacology associated toxicities (both on-target and off-target). Case studies with major considerations such as target distribution, target pharmacology, and systemic pharmacokinetics, early screening, both traditional and non-traditional (e.g., transgenic models), and in vitro safety assessments will be addressed.
11:30 Talk Title to be Announced
Kirk Bertelsen, Ph.D., Director, Clinical Pharmacology, Janssen Pharmaceutical R&D
12:00 pm Translational Value of Target-Based Risk Assessment
Alexander Fekete, Scientific Technical Leader, Novartis
Early safety risk assessment integrates data from pharmacology and ADME profiling, with later addition of pharmacokinetic experiments and efficacy models. One important element of this approach is target-based in vitro profiling for mapping off-target effects to clinical adverse reactions. Ultimately the goal is to produce safer medications for patients and to reduce late-stage attrition through effective translation of predicted toxicological effects.

Director Statement
Inspiration for a documentary often comes like a bolt from the heavens: significant, awe-inspiring, astounding. You read an article or editorial about some great injustice happening in a corner of the universe or you hear your sibling or child utter some remarkable, fantastic misguided notion, and suddenly you are off on a journey. That is the way it was with The Education of Shelby Knox.
"If I don't have an orgasm, I can't get pregnant, right?" "If a girl pees directly after intercourse, she can't get pregnant, right?" "Masturbation causes cancer, doesn't it?" "Abortion can lead to sterility and suicide." These are some of the quotes we heard that were coming out of the mouths of kids when we decided to make a film about sex education.
When we first met Shelby Knox she was pledging in a church ceremony to be chaste until marriage. She had also just joined a group of teens fighting for better sex education in their Lubbock, Texas school district. Through Shelby and the other teens we had a way of making facts come alive, a way of showing how the federal government had gotten into the business of funding abstinence sex education, and how faith-based groups were shaping educational policies. In Lubbock the teens were sure that the abstinence until marriage sex ed was failing; the counties' teen pregnancy and STD rates were soaring.
When Shelby herself was 15, there were three pregnant girls in her math class. When she asked one of them a question about homework, the girl looked at her in shock and said, "I can't believe you talked to me. You're popular. No one's talked to me since I got pregnant." A few weeks later Shelby joined the sex ed fight. Soon after, we started to follow her story.
Over the next three years we watched a courageous, religious girl struggle to make her notions of tolerance and compassion jive with those of the adults around her. We watched her wrestle with her faith, her politics, her pastor, and her family. We often didn't know what Shelby would become, but we had faith that we'd found a remarkable young woman, who was willing to take us along on a turbulent ride through all the ups and downs of adolescence, with her family in tow.
Five years after we began, we finally finished our film. We have been thrilled to find audiences responding to Shelby as a girl in whom the harsh realities and divisions now plaguing the U.S. could be bridged momentarily. We hope that with your help, The Education of Shelby Knox will have impact beyond broadcast and will encourage people to question what should be taught in schools, what is the role of government and religion in secular life, and how will religion define our national dialogue.

A tennis match that was suspended by darkness on Thursday, with SCISA defending state champion Porter-Gaud and 2011 runner-up Hilton Head Prep tied at 4-4 with one doubles match still on the court, could decide the Region III title and bracket top seeding in the state playoffs.
However, the match has been scored as a tie and isnt scheduled to be completed, due to the required travel for the Hilton Head team back to Charleston, according to Porter-Gaud coach Brian Burke.
The match was suspended with the Cylones No. 2 doubles team of Ann Martin Skelly and Grace Robards scheduled to serve while trailing 6-7 in the pro-set format.
That leaves Hilton Head Prep, whose roster is filled by young, talented players from the islands tennis academies, in the drivers seat in the region race with only the tie marring its otherwise perfect record. Pinewood Prep was missing two of its top players on Thursday.
The Dolphins already own a 6-3 win over Porter-Gaud, as well as victories over both three-time region loser Ashley Hall and two-time loser Pinewood Prep.
With a loss and a tie, Porter-Gaud has to hope that Ashley Hall (Tuesday at Charleston Tennis Center), Pinewood Prep (TBD) or Hilton Head Christian will derail the Dolphins before the state playoffs open the week of Oct. 15.
A year ago, Porter-Gaud lost both of its regular season encounters with Hilton Head Prep, but prevailed in the state final. The Cyclones had MiKola Cooper and Annie Hay as their No. 1 and 2 players a year ago.
Hay is all alone now to face the competition at No. 1, which is much more difficult as demonstrated by her one-sided losses to Ashley Halls Narni Summerall and Hilton Heads Allie Burak this past week on the P-G courts.
We dont have a runaway top couple of players like last year, but I like the way this team pulls together, Burke said.
As long as we make matches tight, we have a chance.

Ones to Watch | By Lynne Miller
At the tender age of 25, Joe Boudreaux knows the frozen yogurt business inside and out. In high school, he started working as a counter server at Zack's Famous Frozen Yogurt. Boudreaux worked his way up to management and, at 21, purchased the Zack's shop in Houma, Louisiana, from his family. Boudreaux remodeled the store and rejuvenated the company's image. Now he owns two Zack's and plans to open more stores in and around Louisiana. Speaking enthusiastically about the prospects for frozen yogurt, he points to the success of big chains like Red Mango and Pinkberry. Boudreaux figures the time to grow Zack's couldn't be better.
"There's a lot of interest in frozen yogurt," Boudreaux says. "We're excited about that."
While it's his dream to make Zack's a well-known brand, Boudreaux plans to approach growth cautiously. Down the road, Boudreaux sees the company growing to become a chain of frozen-yogurt shops operated mainly by franchisees. Though running a bigger company appeals to him, he is cognizant of the dangers of growing too quickly. "We don't want explosive growth," he says. "I want to be able to service the franchisees properly."
On its Web site, Zack's Famous Frozen Yogurt notes the company is "taking on the world one sundae at a time." The site features images of palm trees, tiki huts, a turquoise sea, and a sandy beach. The beach-vacation theme continues inside Zack's shops. Thatched roofs over the counters and bright shades of yellow, blue, green, and peach create a tropical feeling. Leather couches invite customers to slow down and get comfy.
At just more than 2,000 square feet, the store in Thibodaux has a pool table and seating for 75 people. The 1,200-square-foot Houma store can seat up to 20 in the dining area. Both shops offer free wireless Internet access.
"We want it to be a place to get away and relax," Boudreaux says.
Zack's banana splits, made with frozen yogurt, are top sellers. Low-fat French vanilla yogurt is the most popular flavor, while the strawberry cheesecake swirl is a close second. Hot fudge, turtle, and caramel sundaes are also available. Some day Boudreaux would like the company to manufacture its own yogurt, but for the time being, employees rely on base mixes. To make the desserts unique, store servers add fruit flavorings and offer customers a choice of more than 30 toppings. Waffle cones are made on site.
"You smell that waffle-cone smell as soon as you walk in the door," Boudreaux says. "Everything we can make, we make here."
Boudreaux emphasizes the healthy aspects of his company's signature product on the Web site, where visitors can download a two-page brochure that touts the nutritional benefits of yogurt. All Zack's yogurt products are either low fat or fat free with no added sugar. One ounce of flavored low-fat yogurt has 30 calories and 2.5 grams of cholesterol, while the no-sugar-added, fat-free flavors contain just 20 calories per ounce and zero grams of fat and cholesterol. Customers who are diabetic or watching their sugar intake are encouraged to check out Zack's "No Sugar Added" menu.
"In Louisiana, we have a big problem with heart disease and diabetes," Boudreaux says. "We have a lot of people on diets who have to have things that are low in sugar, fat, and cholesterol."
It's Louisiana location also means the weather plays a big part in dictating customer traffic. When the mercury hits 100 degrees in July and August, "I can see 500 to 600 people over a 12-hour period," Boudreaux says. But that's not an average day. More typically, the Houma store serves about 300 people while the store in Thibodaux pulls in about 200. The average check is about $6.50.
Opening a Zack's store costs anywhere from $97,000 to $185,000, depending on the size of the store, menu options, and equipment costs. The franchising fee is $10,000.
Boudreaux got a crash course in crisis management when Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast in 2005. While Zack's is about 45 miles from New Orleans, it didn't entirely escape the storm's wrath. Since the company's suppliers were based in New Orleans, both Zack's stores had to shut down for 10 days. The company used generators to preserve products but still had to set limits on how much stores could sell, and suppliers had to put Boudreaux in touch with sister companies in Houston and Shreveport. "They were able to help us temporarily," Boudreaux says. "It took a couple of weeks to be able to serve our customers on a regular basis."

BAGHDAD - A pair of bombings killed four people Sunday in attacks targeting Iraq's security forces, officials said, while the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad maintained it will continue training Iraqi police despite cutbacks to the program.
The first bomb exploded near a security patrol in the western city of Ramadi, killing one police officer and wounding seven people. Hours later, a suicide bomber blew himself up at a security checkpoint in the Mansour neighborhood of Baghdad, killing three people - including two police officers - and wounding nine more.
Police and hospital officials in both Ramadi and Baghdad confirmed the casualty figures. All spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information.

Across Europe, the parish church has stood for centuries at the centre of local communities; it was the focal point of its religious life, the rituals performed there marked the stages of life from the cradle to the grave. This interdisciplinary conference will facilitate a better understanding of the evolution and importance of this religious building within communities across Europe during the confessional, economic, political and social changes of the early modern period.

How much do you love a snow day? Practically everyone is delighted to hear there's no school, but if you are tempted to hang out in your PJs and watch brainless reality shows all day, get real. Sitting in front of a screen all those hours is not only not healthy, it's not as fun as playing in the snow either.
There are lots of ways to have fun in the snow that don't involve driving to the slopes and buying a lift ticket. Build a snowman — the funnier it looks the better! Go sledding — climbing back up the hill burns tons of calories. If you own snowshoes or cross country ski equipment, head to a local park or trails — both are great workouts.
If it's too cold to go outside, or you're chilled to the bone, you can have plenty of fun inside without turning on the TV or going online. Play board games, catch up on your reading or use your unexpected free time to give back. Clean out your closet and put together a bag of clothes to donate to charity. Bake a batch of cookies for someone who could use cheering up or help your neighbors shovel the snow from their walks and steps.

Album of the Week
"Let's take hip hop back to the root," declares Missy Elliott in the spoken intro to her fourth album. And that's exactly what the rapper does on this funky-fresh disc, deftly bringing an old-school party vibe to her signature trip-hop. Evoking the playful, pregangsta spirit of acts like the Sugar Hill Gang and Run-DMC—along with a healthy dash of Salt-N-Pepa—Elliott injects some refreshing humor into tracks such as the electro-boogie hit "Work It." One of the year's best singles (file next to 2001's "Get Ur Freak On"), "Work It" finds Elliott cleverly sampling Run-DMC's "Peter Piper." Elsewhere she gets strong support from Jay-Z and Beyoncé Knowles (who has an Arethaesque turn on "Nothing Out There for Me"). TLC appears on "Can You Hear Me," a tribute to departed stars such as Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and Aaliyah, and the song closes the CD on a sweetly elegiac note.
BOTTOM LINE: It'll get ur freak on

With rumors swirling that Russell Crowe and Danielle Spencer have split after nine years of marriage, the cause of the couple's separation has come into question.
Speculation about Spencer and Crowe's relationship initially began when the actress-musician, 43, participated on Australia's Dancing with the Stars earlier this year.
"There was talk on set about whether Russell and Danielle were actually still together," a source tells PEOPLE.
"She visited him once in London on the Les Misérables set just before DWTS started in April and then he surprised her during a performance on June 10, but apart from those dates that was the only time I believe they saw each other," the source adds. "It was clear to us Danielle never wanted to be known as 'Mrs. Russell Crowe'."
When Crowe, 48, surprised his wife on the set of DWTS in June, it wasn't a happy reunion, the source says.
"The day he surprised her on set, it was a bit awkward," the source adds. "She didn't seem happy to see him but he did stay back afterwards, had drinks with everyone and was very chatty."
That same month, Spencer and her professional partner on DWTS, Damian Whitewood, were photographed with their arms wrapped around each other, but the extent of their relationship off-set remained unclear.
"I'd be surprised if they actually had a fling," the source says. "She seemed too controlled to let that happen but they were very close and touchy-feely, so people talked." Adding that "when they were both in Melbourne where we film DWTS they stayed at the same hotel, everyone stays there."
A different source adds: "There was this unspoken belief that Danielle and Russell weren't really together. At the afterparty, Danielle and Damian got very "hot and heavy" on the dance floor, but although everyone talked about a potential fling, no one really knew for sure."
But while Spencer's costars speculated about the status of her marriage, Crowe – who was away filming – was "very supportive" of Spencer while she competed on DWTS and "Tweeted her every week," the same source says.

CLEVELAND—The attorneys for Suarez Corporation Industries called their first witness in the trial of the company's owner.
Ben Suarez, 72, is charged with violating campaign finance laws and obstructing justice. Federal prosecutors said he illegally funneled about $200,000 into the campaigns of U.S. Rep. Jim Renacci and Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel.
SCI, Suarez's director marking company, is named as a codefendant.
Tuesday afternoon, the U.S. attorneys called their last witness and rested. The defense team for SCI then called former company vice president Rod Napier.
Napier worked at SCI from 1976 until he was terminated in 2002. He's now the chairman of the Arthur Middleton Capital Holdings Company, another direct firm in Canton.
Napier was specifically asked about an advance former SCI chief financial officer Michael Giorgio received on his profit sharing in 1997. Napier said he approved four months of advances, while Giorgio previously said this money was later incorporated into his salary.
Giorgio pleaded guilty in the case last month. Defense attorneys claim he stole thousands from SCI and is the reason why the company reimbursed employees for political contributions.
Like SCI, Arthur Middleton Capital Holdings had legal troubles in California. The company was sued in 2009.

This excerpt on Generosity is from No Time to Lose, by Pema Chödrön, © 2005. Reproduced by arrangement with Shambhala Publications, Inc., www.shambhala.com
1.29But those who fill with blissAll beings destitute of joy,Who cut all pain and suffering awayFrom those weighed down with misery,
1.30Who drive away the darkness of their ignorance—What virtue could be matched with theirs?What friend could be compared to them?What merit is there similar to this?
The first kind of generosity is the giving of material things, such as food and shelter.
The second is "giving the gift of fearlessness." We help those who are afraid. If someone is scared of the dark, we give them a flashlight; if they're going through a fearful time, we comfort them; if they're having night terrors, we sleep next to them. This may sound easy, but it takes time and effort and care.
The third kind of generosity drives away the darkness of ignorance. This is "the gift of dharma" and is considered the most profound. Although no one can eliminate our ignorance but ourselves, nevertheless, through example and through teachings, we can inspire and support one another.
The inconceivable wish to help all sentient beings always begins with oneself. Our own experience is the only thing we have to share.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - After Cole Hamels pitched his first two innings of the spring Saturday, he walked to the Bright House Field bullpen. He only needed 25 pitches against the Yankees and his day of throwing called for 40 total. So there was work left to do.
The bullpen is adjacent to Frenchy's tiki bar, where heat and beverages conspire for debauchery. "I think they're having a good time up there," Hamels said. But then he noticed something else.
"The Yankee fans were real nice for some reason," Hamels said. "I don't know why."


text:
The controversy began in the fifth inning with Mets starter Mike Pelfrey laboring and in a massive jam. The score was tied at 1-1. The bases were loaded. There was nobody out. And Reds cleanup hitter Scott Rolen, an imposing threat, stood at the plate.
The count was 2-2 when Pelfrey threw a riding inside fastball to the righty batting Rolen that changed the course of the game and ultimately led to his rather unfortunate demise, given the events that would later unfold.
Rolen, who was indecisive and took a half-swing -- potentially tipping the ball -- only to have the pitch graze his back forearm simultaneously and into the glove of catcher Rod Barajas, was initially ruled out by home plate umpire Jerry Meals. Had that result stood, Pelfrey would have been a double play from getting out of the frame unscathed. But after a brief huddle, the call was changed -- overturned by second base ump Dan Iassogna -- and Rolen was awarded first base, the result of being hit by the pitch.
"There's no way it hit his (Rolen's) forearm," said Pelfrey after getting a second chance to look at the replay himself. "I think the worst part is that it was overturned, but what can you do."
Barajas, however, had the best view of the play -- and upon further review -- agreed with the umpiring crew.
"The replay looks like the ball hit him," Barajas said. "Initially, I couldn't tell. It could've been both (a hit by pitch and a foul-tip strike-three). ... I didn't think the second base umpire had a better view, though, to overturn it."
Manager Jerry Manuel came out to join Barajas in arguing the call, but to no avail. In fact, all his histrionics would lead to was an ejection. The Reds had a 2-1 lead. The bases were still loaded. There was still nobody out. And Pelfrey was about to implode. Although, it didn't occur right away.
Pelfrey retired the next two batters and was one out away from escaping further trouble, but Drew Stubbs singled, Corky Miller doubled, pitcher Travis Wood tripled and all of a sudden Pelfrey looked more like a pitcher that deserved to be snubbed from the National League All-Star team than the one that began the game sporting a 2.93 earned run average and ranking third in the NL along with Roy Halladay in wins.
In the end, the Reds (48-36) sent 10 men to the plate in the inning, knocking Pelfrey (10-3) out of the game after 4 2/3 innings and leading 7-1. The 26-year-old right-hander was charged with nine hits and seven earned runs. He walked four, while striking out just one.
"It kind of snowballed," Pelfrey said. "I let my emotions get the best of me."
The Mets (46-37) staged a comeback in the bottom of the frame, countering Cincinnati's six-run fifth with five runs of their own. Angel Pagan led off the inning with a home run and Ike Davis got the Mets within four when his squibber up the third base line could not be handled by Wood, allowing David Wright, who had tripled, to score from third. Then, New York got a pair of clutch two-out hits from Rod Barajas (RBI single) and Alex Cora (two-run double) to climb within 7-6.
The Mets would never get any closer.
Reds first baseman Joey Votto, who, like Pelfrey, was also omitted from the NL all-star team despite putting together a brilliant first half, slugged his second home run of the game -- and 21st of the season -- in the sixth off Fernando Nieve, who pitched 3 solid innings in relief, into the right field seats to give Cincinnati a two-run cushion.
His first homer -- a mammoth blast -- came in the first inning off of Pelfrey, who left a changeup over the middle, which Votto deposited all the way into the Apple in dead centerfield.
Jordan Smith (2-1) got the win in relief for the Reds. Woods, like Pelfrey, lasted just 4 2/3 innings. But it was his hit that ultimately gave Cincinnati a lead it would never relinquish.
Aaron Harang was slated to get the start for Cincinnati, but he scratched before the game due to back problems. Reds closer Francisco Cordero pitched a scoreless ninth to record his 23rd save.
"It was too big a hill to climb," Wright said.
The Mets again played without
shortstop Jose Reyes, who said he would start Tuesday night. Reyes, who
has not played since he injured his oblique last Wednesday in San Juan,
is expected to only be able to hit from the right side of the plate.
According to general manager Omar Minaya, New York expects to finally
have Carlos Beltran (knee) back after the All-Star break.

It's so refreshing to meet new people & learn more about the folks that make up our community. That is what's missing in the internet-shopping world. There's so much you can learn from chatting with someone about an old honey pot or antique ball gown. The memories, the hope, the excitement of remembering how much simpler things were, and in many ways hot everything is still the same... (Gremlina vintage set up shop at the event).

Days like yesterday really grow my desire for having a steady location, a community gathering place where folks can come play dress up & be nostalgic. What a vision I have for a place...

No. 1 Indiana beats No. 4 Michigan State
EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Victor Oladipo's go-ahead putback, dunk and free throws in the final minute lifted top-ranked Indiana to a 72-68 win over No. 4 Michigan State on Tuesday night.
Indiana (24-3, 12-2 Big Ten) broke a first-place tie in the conference. The Hoosiers had lost 17 straight -- since 1991 -- on the road against the Spartans.
Michigan State (22-5, 11-3) had won five straight and 11-of-12 with its only loss during the stretch at Indiana.
- No. 15 Butler 68, Duquesne 49: At Indianapolis, Rotnei Clarke scored 16 points and Khyle Marshall added 14 to lead Butler (22-5, 9-3 Atlantic 10) past Duquesne (8-18, 1-11).
- No. 17 Marq. 67, Seton Hall 46: At Newark, N.J., Vander Blue scored 19 points and Marquette (19-6, 10-3 Big East) beat Seton Hall (13-14, 2-12).
- No. 21 Syr. 58, Rutgers 45: At Syracuse, N.Y., Kayla Alexander and Elashier Hall converted three-point plays to key a decisive second-half spurt, and Syracuse (22-3, 10-2 Big East) beat Rutgers (14-11, 5-7), denying Scarlet Knights coach C. Vivian Stringer her 900th victory.
Stringer, a Hall of Famer in her 42nd season as a head coach, is seeking to become just the fourth women's coach to reach 900 wins along with Pat Summitt, Jody Conradt and Sylvia Hatchell, who reached the mark Feb. 7.
Syracuse, which has its best record in program history through 25 games, broke a three-game losing streak against Rutgers and upped its home record to 12-0.

Norm Letnick (second from left), Miles Probane (far right) and a local farmer, chef and winemaker toast the funding announcement that will help pair local food and wine, such as the combination above.
On Wednesday in Penticton, the B.C. Government announced it will spend $100,000 to boost the idea of buying local food and wine.
The idea is to educate local restaurants, chefs, sommeliers and consumers on the idea that B.C. Wines, particularly in the Okanagan and Similkameen, go great with the local food in this province. Miles Probane, Executive Director of the B.C. Wine Institute, says the money should help spread the knowledge of how our local food and wine can be paired together.
"What I don't think consumers aren't really aware of is just how well B.C. Wine pairs with food," said Probane. "Our wines win over 2,000 awards each year and one of the constant comments coming back from the judges in those events is just how well our wines pair with food."
The B.C. Wine Institute will also be matching the provincial government's $100,000 for the initiative, which won't come out of taxpayer's pockets. The wine institute will initiate a consumer campaign that will use social media to establish a place for consumers to discuss B.C. wine and food. The majority of the award-winning wine industry in B.C. is concentrated in the Okanagan and Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick is happy to get the industry completely behind this initiative.
"By going out and asking industry to partner with us, we're actually able to double taxpayer's investment in this program," said Letnick. "Also, industry knows best as to how we can get more people to buy local products."
The goal of the consumer media campaign is to reach 1.3 million people per week.

The younger Boston Marathon bombing suspect left behind a message in the boat where he was captured, CBS News reports. A law enforcement source said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev penned a note inside the wall of the vessel saying April 15 attack was in retaliation for Muslims killed by U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"When you attack one Muslim, you attack all Muslims," Tsarnaev wrote. Tsarnaev also wrote that he would join his older brother soon as a martyr in paradise.
The 19-year-old is being held at a prison medical center outside of Boston.

Bentley was on a hot streak. The Falcons had been undefeated in six games headed into their game against the famed Boston University program.
Branden Komm recorded 42 saves and didn't give up a goal until there was just five minutes left in regulation, leading his team to a 4-1 win on Dec. 14.
Any time a school from Atlantic Hockey beats one of the storied programs of Hockey East, the win makes news. So this was a particularly opportune time for Komm, a Williamsville native, to set the Bentley program record for most career wins.
"People were telling me I was closing in on the record and I knew I had a chance to do it at BU," Komm said. "I want to win every game, but it did make it more sweet beating BU. My family was there. I don't think it's just a goaltending statistic. It's a team statistic as well.
"It just shows how far Bentley and the entire program has come. The individual statistic is great but what I really want is an Atlantic Hockey championship. That's what I'm working toward."
The work is paying off as Komm and the Bentley Falcons (11-8-2, 9-3-2) are in second place in Atlantic Hockey as they come into Buffalo to face Canisius (8-11-1, 7-5-1) for noon games on Saturday and Sunday at the Buffalo State Ice Arena.
Bentley is looking for its first trip to the NCAA Tournament, as the Falcons have played hockey at the Division I level since the 1999-00 season.
The Falcons' eight-game unbeaten streak ended Jan. 4 with a 5-3 home loss to Niagara. During that streak, though, Komm went 7-0-1 and had a 1.48 goals against average with a .954 save percentage.
Komm credits his team more than his individual performance with his solid numbers and his ability to win. The victory at Boston University was the 36th of his career and broke the Bentley mark that stood since 1984.
"The team is a lot better in front of me," said Komm, who now has 39 wins. "When the forwards are doing their job and the defense is doing its job, it makes my job easier. Then it's just about my approach to the game. During the season there will be ups and downs. You've got to take the ups and downs as they come. You don't want to get too overworked about it. That's something I've learned maturing through college, going through some unfortunate losses."
What has also helped is his ability to understand the game and make adjustments. Take the loss to Niagara.
"Niagara played a great game and they exposed some things we needed to work on," Komm said.
"I know that they did shoot intentionally wide against me a couple of times to try and get a good bounce off the back of the boards. That's how they got one of their goals. A lot of times when the defense has the puck they shoot intentionally to miss and hit the back of the net to get a bounce to guys on the backdoor."
This weekend will be a homecoming for Komm, who went to Williamsville North before leaving Western New York for prep school, Northfield Mount Herman in Massachusetts.
Last year, Canisius ended Bentley's season at the Buffalo State Ice Arena, winning two games in the first round of the Atlantic Hockey playoffs.
Canisius, meanwhile, is looking to regain its nice feeling of home after losing a two-goal lead in a 3-2 loss to Sacred Heart last Sunday. The Golden Griffins are two points of out fourth place and a first-round playoff bye. The Griffs are 4-1-1 at home.
Meanwhile, Niagara (5-12-3, 5-5-2) hosts Holy Cross (4-15-2, 3-12-0) at 7 p.m. tonight and Saturday in Dwyer Arena. The Purple Eagles hope the right team shows up after a Jekyll-and-Hyde performance last weekend during a two-game split with American International (6-2 loss followed by a 5-0 win).
As has been the case all season, NU will again be without last year's leading scorer, but this time Ryan Murphy's absence will be permanent. Murphy is no longer with the program.
Murphy had been suspended for 18 games after he had been charged with driving while intoxicated and other motor vehicle violations after a Sept. 29 accident in Lewiston. He was eligible to return to practice Monday but had been removed from all Niagara rosters as of last Saturday. In 100 career games, he recorded 28 goals and 64 points. He had 15 goals and 36 points last year in helping Niagara make the NCAA Tournament.

When a Buddhist monk set himself alight in Saigon in 1963 the image of flames engulfing him shocked the world. Thich Quang Duc stared silently ahead as his body blackened and charred in protest against the persecution of Buddhists by the South Vietnamese administration.
Self-immolation was not new — it had been carried out for centuries in Hindu and Buddhist traditions — but the shocking stunt helped to overthrow the Vietnamese regime and inspired copycat protests across the world.
