Kristi Yamaguchi on parenting and unconditional love
Olympic mom Kristi Yamaguchi opens up to Celebrity Baby Scoop about her daughters, Keara, 9, and Emma, 7; the joys of motherhood; and shares some details about the Always Dream Foundation.
Q What's new with your Always Dream Foundation? Tell us about the program and how it is helping people.
A We launched a couple of different reading programs in schools that focus on early childhood literacy. For one of the programs, we partnered with an organization called "Raising A Reader." It's a book bag program where children get five books a week in a book bag to take home and it involves the parents' engagement at home, really just sitting down and encouraging the love of books and the love of reading at a young age. Our foundation provides the technology side of that program by providing tablets and e-books, in which some of the titles correspond to the hardcover books they take home. This makes it so the children can see the different ways they can view books. It also helps them gain knowledge of technology and where that is going today.
The second program we launched is a language arts software program. Again it is on a tablet. It utilizes the classroom's reading curriculum. It is very hands-on and everything that the child does on the tablet is recorded. It's really great to see the progress and to see where the child actually might need help.
Q How are your daughters doing? What are they into these days? What do they do to make you laugh?
A They are doing great, thank you. They are keeping busy with school obviously, and their various other activities. Our older daughter, Keara, is into softball. She is starting that in a couple of weeks and it is her second season doing that. She is also in a Polynesian performing arts group and she is a competitive hula dancer. She also plays piano. Our younger, 7-year-old daughter, Emma, has been skating for about a year. She does that a couple of times a week at the recreational level, and she also loves soccer.
Everything they do makes me laugh. The two of them together is pretty hilarious. They create their own language; they make up words that mean certain things to them. I have to ask them, "what does that mean?" (Laughs) I think the interactions they have together are fun to watch. They are silly together. I don't know, it's hard to explain.
Q What's been your biggest challenge in motherhood? Greatest reward?
A I think there are challenges every day. You just face them with open arms as a mom. You try to take each challenge as it comes. Obviously, it's a different lifestyle having grown up as an athlete in an individual sport, where my life was really just centered around me the whole time. It's hard to say, but it is a very self-centered lifestyle. When you become a mom you really understand what unconditional love is and you really want to do something for someone else.
I don't know what my greatest reward in motherhood is. Every day I think there is something that I feel so lucky about in being a mom. It's hard to say just one thing. I think one of the most emotional moments was when I saw my older one, who was probably only 21/2 years old, try so hard and finally get her sister to smile at her and start to interact with her. Seeing that was amazing as a mom.
Q What's up next for you?
A I don't know. I am looking forward to summer vacation. (Laughs) Not much. I think that I am working on a third children's book. Other than that, just keeping up with the kids' schedules and seeing where that goes.

Brandon "1-O.A.K." McFarland is an Oakland kid; a young man who has been influenced by the Oakland players and the church prayers. R&B vocalist isn't exactly the title I'd attribute to the 26 year-old cool kid of the Honor Roll crew. Although he is the singer in the squad, his act differs from that of your father's Motown stars. He is the culmination of Q-Tip's thought process, Stevie Wonder's ear, and Too $hort's pimp limp — 1-O.A.K is an R&B singer; only for lack of a better term.
He is an asset to the new generation of Oakland talent; a flock of lyricists with few vocalists. From a town historically known for its singers. When asked who his influences are, he immediately says soul singer Raphael Saadiq was at the top of his list. When asked what music has influenced his, he states that the British sound has greatly informed his musical sensibilities. When asked who writes his songs, he makes it known that his life experiences, his Honor Roll crew, and even his mom have input on his lyrics.
His debut album, Special Request, is eclectic to say the least. He incorporates hip-hop, Brasilian, funk, rock, and soul en route to recording a classic record. He references the church as his starting point on the drums, which served as a foundation in mastering the art of his production. He self-produced the whole album, but his soulful vocals take the cake. The "feel good" music is good, and the funk is a must when you come from the East Bay's musical tradition, but nothing hits like the soul tracks.
When listening to his album, I imagine a young man who stayed after services to play the piano- a smooth melodic tune- one that sounds like Stevie Wonder is in the room. And when the drums kick in, the words come out- and… well, the words wouldn't be suitable for church… But that's 1-O.A.K, a product of both the church and the turf.
He says that this album is the process of going through a relationship. I understand.

Making a girl squirt is not an easy task. Many say it's because of mental blockage that makes the girl not to let the fluid freely flow thinking that she is letting off urine instead. This is however not true since you cannot urinate while having an orgasm. Then how to make your woman squirt: It requires lots of patience and foreplay.
You should get her ready by getting her in the mood and make her feel at ease. This can be done by lots of kissing and teasing and also sucking her nipples while running your finger tips up her inner thigh.
This will make her breath harder and that will tell you she is ready for you to go in her vagina. You should not however go straight to her vagina but instead you should first play with her clitoris and use your fingers to brush the outer lips.
How to find a G-spot to make her squirt
Locating the G-spot should be your next target in trying to make her squirt. The G-spot of a woman is located in the upper portion of the vagina. It is a very fleshy textured patch you'll be able to feel with your fingers. This spongy area really stimulates a woman and if you really work it well then you will have some great results. As soon as you touch the G-spot then you will see a different reaction from your girl.
Now that you have successfully located the G-spot, the next step is making her squirt. You should start by slowly but surely curling your fingers as if you are saying come here. You should remember to get solid and do it right.
The girl will start moaning in delight. Once she starts doing so then it only tells you that you're doing it right. At this point you should not stop but instead continue doing it by increasing the pressure on the G-spot and doing it a little bit faster.
You can also take instructions from her as to how to make it. She can tell you to go faster or that she wants to pee. You should be prepared because a lot of fluid much more than what you expected may start flowing out. She will soon ejaculate after the peeing feeling.
Also remember that after that she might intensely feel the presence of her vagina for about two or three days. This can make them feel confused and vulnerable so you should be ready to ease her up and make her feel okay. This usually happens because most women are only used to the clitoral orgasm and not the internal one — which cause her to squirt.

For a while, the day an Air Jordan III with 'Nike Air' on the heel released would be far-fetched plot. Branding issues have removed any 'Nike' billboarding on an Air Jordan shoe for over a decade (with the exception of the Swoosh on the Air Jordan 1 and 'NIKE' on the heel of the Air Jordan II), but with an opportune time like the 25th Anniversary of Jordan's iconic Dunk Contest win coming tomorrow, it's time for Nike Air to make a comeback. The discussion has been endless, but we're certain tomorrow's release of the Air Jordan III Retro '88 will be one of the biggest of the year (definitely one of the Top 30 of 2013). These are slated to release tomorrow at select Jordan Brand retailers with Eastbay and Finishline confirming their release at 4:51 PM EST, so don't miss out by copping now from retro_licks on eBay.

NICE. If I had $200.00 bucks to cough up, I'd get a pair, sure!
To everyone saying 'f these' and 'quality' and what not...ummm these WILL sell out in seconds.
Fresh....go luck coppin these tomorrow ppl
+ 40$ for changing some plastic around and resellers adding 250$ because they swear these resemble ogs... the people who buy these arent buying the shoe they buying the hype no matter what they think... the 2011s which were same quality didnt even sell out what does that tell you...
hmmm are 4 little letters worth the hassle and 40$ more for something i already have.....
man all these kids want these cause they are "OG" when they weren't even old enough to remember the Nike air Im still happy with my 2011 pair
fuck this shoe, this this price, fuck those resellers
not worth the headache
I was hoping there'd be some commerative packaging, especially for that price. I think it's just the og box. I have the 2011s but I'm trying to get for some ppl. Will be easy. Good luck to all!
Ok so they are hella dope Im not gonna lie, but I mean real talk as much as I like seeing Nike Air on the back I don't like it enough to spend an extra $40+ for it when I still got a pair from 2011 on ice. There's so much other heat that's coming out this year, so to whoever goes and gets them tomorrow enjoy yourselves.

The extra 40+ bucks dont mean shit, if u buying foams or lebrons etc..for 200+ whats the problem, money is not a issue for me nor the price. Kinda crazy how u assume ppl are buying these for hype no matter we think you say, thats plain BS. I do value your opinion but you should word it better, after all the same ppl like you end up copping shoes like these when you so much say you dont want them.

A Renovation in Black and White
In remaking her Manhattan apartment, a writer purges 15 years of flotsam to create bright, sleek and spare space
A friend I've known since the eighth grade stopped by to see our downtown Manhattan apartment, which we'd recently renovated after having lived there for 15 years. As far as I could tell, she was her normal funny, relaxed self.
But later she emailed me to say that she'd been so shaken by the extremity of the change that she could hardly speak. It was as if her old friend had developed a new personality, as if a lifelong collector of books and art had finally revealed her secret self: a Zen monk with a passion for spare, modern high design.
My husband, Howie, and I bought our 1,400-square-foot triplex in 1995, when we moved back to the city from our country home in the Hudson Valley. We'd partly raised our sons in the apartment, but now both are grown and have moved out. The place was full of manuscripts, tax receipts, takeout menus, travel souvenirs, tag-sale items we'd fallen in love with. Every inch of wall space was covered by Howie's paintings, by framed photos and bookcases with more paintings and photos propped up in front of the books.
In all our time there, we'd never figured out how to deal with certain problematic features of the apartment: the 16-foot-tall living-room window looking out on the back of another building; the lack of natural light; the overhanging mezzanine that divided the living room into two peculiar spaces; the cramped kitchen directly beneath my study where it would become too hot to work whenever anyone cooked. We hadn't even managed to get rid the weird, mirrored, illuminated 1970s liquor closet left over from the previous owner.
One night, over dinner at a restaurant, Howie told our friend, the architect Wendy Evans Joseph, that we needed help with our apartment. The next thing we knew, she was our architect.
Wendy and her colleague, Chris Good, showed us drawings. The three-dimensional reality they represented was hard for me to visualize, but I liked how clean and modern the drawings looked. It seemed clear to everyone that we had to rip out the top two floors and start over. And Wendy's vision for the place—a difficult space, she admitted—seemed so inventive and logical, we agreed to go with it.
We collaborated with Wendy on certain aspects of the design. I didn't want to sacrifice any space from my mezzanine office. We wanted to expose the brick wall and paint it white. We'd fallen in love with the Poulsen lamps we'd seen in the house of a friend.
Wendy found a contractor, Bob Reid, who, along with his helpers and subcontractors, was thoughtful, capable and resourceful, a rare combination. Even so, the process took 10 months and wound up being far more expensive than we'd imagined. The cost overruns were partly because (as anyone who's ever renovated anything will tell you) that always happens. It was partly because our basic systems turned out to be so outdated. ("Are you sure you never had a fire?" is not what you want to hear the new electrician say.) And partly because it's time-consuming and expensive to observe and follow the New York City building codes, about which Wendy felt strongly.
Wendy did things that seemed counterintuitive, but which wound up being both functional and beautiful: a black kitchen with a black ceiling in a dark apartment might not be the first thing that occurs to everyone. Throughout the process there were, amazingly, no disagreements—or even friction. It all worked because we trusted her, and because it was great to find out that our friend is really good—not merely competent, but inspired—at what she does.
Seventy cartons of books were absorbed by our house upstate, where we still spend a lot of time. My library is there. Our bright colors, Howie's paintings and our cherished souvenirs have all moved to the country, where the décor is less Zen than horror vacui: the disorder suffered by people who cannot tolerate empty or undecorated space. Sometimes, going back and forth from place to place does feel like having two different personalities.
Now our city apartment seems bright, despite the lack of daylight. It's cheerful in a sleek, spare way, rather than a "we raised two sons here" way. Everything is black and white. Black tables and chairs, black couch, black-and-white walls. A kitchen that feels open and wide, and where Howie, who is a terrific cook, finds it easy to work without blasting me out of my study. We have a table at which 10 people can gather for a comfortable dinner without feeling (as they did beneath the old overhang) as if they are eating in two different rooms. We are careful not to let things accumulate, not to allow books and mail to pile up on the dining table. A poet friend calls it "an adult apartment."
The new simplicity has other advantages. Our two granddaughters can run around, and there is hardly anything to break; most of the furniture is fingerprint-proof black. Our "difficult space" has won a design award from the American Institute of Architects.
Now, when I open the door and walk into the apartment, I feel happy. For a few moments, that buoyancy precedes the realization that still comes as something of a surprise, more than a year since the renovation was completed: This elegant, visually beautiful space is my home. I live here.

APPRENTICESHIPS FOR 2016 WILL NOT BE HELD ONSITE AT CCC THIS YEAR ~ PLEASE CONTAT OUR ALUMNI AT SUNDOGBUILDERS.NET or Please email firstname.lastname@example.com for other opportunities and connections to our alumni offering full apprenticeships. Several camping internships on a work trade basis may be available during parts of 2016 if you are interested call the office for inquiry. Still seeking finish woodworkers that want to trade your skills for learning natural building skills, if you or someone you know is handy with wood we could sure welcome you to the Cob family!)
Concerned about the world's state of affairs? Ready to be part of the solution? Begin now, start with home. Two programs to guide you in making changes in your lifestyle, consumerism, health and well-being, career and livelihood, based on ecological values and Natural Building principles and practices. This is designed to support you into creating a life that you, your family and community can feel proud of. We now offer two new custom-designed training programs for persons looking for a lifestyle and career change. You will have support in adjusting your lifestyle to fit your conscience and to meet the new conditions of the 21st century.
Cob Natural Building Apprenticeship The Natural Builder program will help you become skilled as a professional Natural Builder or teacher, and will enable you to build your own Natural Home. Covers all aspects of building cob and natural homes using a range of earth building techniques and other natural materials - wood, both milled and recycled, stone, lime, clay, straw, together with creative use of industrial and commercial waste and surplus. We'll work on all phases of a house - walls, floors, roofs, etc., helping complete buildings already in progress at the school and beginning new buildings elsewhere. We will also work on honing skills in putting the final and beautiful touches on buildings. The emphasis is on a hands-on understanding of materials and how they work, design, and creative space-creation. Mostly you will work alongside a professional/instructor on a one on one basis.Instructors may include Linda Smiley, Betty Seaman, Bernhard Masterson, Greg Lalish, Allie Maggio, Ianto Evans, the Edlesons, Kiko Denzer and a host of nationally known professionals.
Apprenticeship this year will begin at a 3 week course with one of our veteran alumni in LosOlivos California. After that there are many options where our apprentices can continue at a variety of other hosts including here in Coquille, Oregon. We have structured this years apprenticeship to be flexible and specifically tailored to meet the needs and desires of each of our applicants, insted of attempting another "one-size" fits all program. The apprenticeship program is a year long committment, where Phase I will be through May 9th in Los Olivos, CA; Phase II may be camping out with us at Cob Cottage Company in Coquille through the end of the building season or with other CCC alumni/instructors; thereafter continued training for the balance of the year will be on a case by case basis. Limit will be six apprentices, three at the Coquille site during Phase II.
The Ecological Gardener is an experimental program to jump-start you in a lifetime of understanding food production and raising healthy food. See the workshop schedule for details. Only two apprentices selected annually. A Cob Cottage Company apprenticeship is a 12 month program including training at the Cob Cottage Company while we camp together, followed by practicums with other Natural Builders and Ecological Gardeners. You will receive upon completion, a certificate, following which we give support and guidance in your new career. After your completion of the program, we can help you find appropriate paid work within the Natural Building or ecological food production movements, or possibly could offer you a position with the Cob Cottage Company.
THEMES to learn by
- PERCEPTION and AWARENESS: of land, surroundings, processes – both ecological and social. Industrial consumerism, history, watching Earth turn, conserve cultures.
- ECOLOGY of HOUSE: local and distant effects of buildings on ecology and society. Production and consumption in the home. Slowing entropy.
- DESIGN: creating durable systems; turn problems to assets. Gloves not boxes. Passive solar. Indoor/outdoor rooms. Place making. Siting. LESS.
- MATERIALS: Geological vs. Biological. Selection for re-use. No waste. Local sourcing. Properties of materials, durability, toxins. Combination.
- CRAFTSMANSHIP: Quality of work, what is quality? Feel of built places. Effect of beauty on all senses. Durability. Tools, selection and care.
- FOCUS: Time management. Avoiding bottlenecks, when to multitask. Rhythm enjoyment. Planning ahead, even beyond your lifetime.
- PERSONAL HEALTH: Body mechanics, conserving your abilities. Safety-dangers. When to switch jobs. Toxins, sharpness, heights, heavy objects. Mechanizing.
- ETHICAL CLARITY: Aligning your actions with your beliefs. Using less money. Being a model of what you believe in. Working for the future, for all Life.
- REINFORCING COMMUNITY: Work teams, playmates. Involving volunteers, integrating spectators. Partnerships, collaboration. Cob-toss, co-lifting, carrying.
- INSPIRING/INSTRUCTING OTHER PEOPLE: teaching courses, giving talks, demo's. Publishing, Web and paper. Trainees, apprentices, helpers, a whole team approach.
- A SERVICE NOT A BUSINESS: Listen carefully, how can you best help? What is the trade? Avoid things unjoyful. Cutting out money. Don't feed banks, lawyers, government or corporations.
We have decades of experience, gradually refining a more ecological way of living. We grow much of our food and you could be involved in that work. The CCC site is independent of public power, water supplies, or sewage. While no one lives here year round, we have installed systems that allow our camping experience to be more like off-grid living! We have our own gravity-fed water system, composting toilets, and solar power station. We teach not only technical skills but a whole approach to living well in a world of fewer resources. Whether it be here at our Coquille Oregon site or at Spirit Pines Santuary, you will benefit in a whole approach to sustainable living - in California you will also benefit for the continual mindfulness and resourcefulness of water conservating and living in a community very supportive of that and the environment.
Call to discuss. Our goal is to help you meet your needs and desire for learning, flexible enough so that anyone can participate!
You are expected to assemble your own tool kit, but initially CCC can lend out some specialist tools. Some courses we teach are available to you without further fees; you'll be in the privileged position of assistant. You will be expected to fund your travel to other building projects, though we will be happy to help assist you in making your travel arrangements and carpools.

Help out anyone who is building anything with any kind of materials. Get to know technical terms; expand your building vocabulary.
- Take a basic ecology course, read up on woodland ecology and forest management, study soils and clays. Spend time digging holes, cutting down trees, hauling rocks around. Particularly, get in the habit of examining and testing soils (see The Hand Sculpted House Chapters 5 and 8) wherever you go. Get to know the differences. Make test bricks, observe how well they hold together, if they crack, etc.
- Prepare your tool kit. At the minimum you'll need:
- A builder's level, preferably 4' long, a machete, a good sharp pocket knife, a 6" or 8" flat file, a shovel, a 16' to 25' measuring tape, a hammer, a sharp hatchet, a mattock/Pulaski for excavation, a handsaw.
- Also very useful are:
- 5 gallon buckets, a wheelbarrow, a blue tarp (8' x 10' minimum size), a glasscutter, an old saw for trimming cob, a cordless drill/driver, a pool float for flooring.
Have the basic kit upon arrival, but if you're flying, larger tools can be bought locally when you arrive.
The Ecological Gardener Program
A practical apprenticeship focused on providing a diversity of food year round for the school. Decisions are made based on careful observation of soils, microclimate, light, weather, our own eating habits and the ecology of each food plant. Ecological Gardeners will be mostly in our organic garden in Coquille, and in the Center's kitchen. We will work the quarter acre garden, pioneering cultivation on land which has never before been dug; we'll test a wide variety of edible and display plants, both herbaceous and hardwooded. Ianto has gardened in the western Oregon since 1973, breeding locally suited varieties and adjusting to local soils and microclimates. We grow many unusual vegetables and fruits not normally seen here, such as citrus, guavas, oca, yacon, mashua, etc. Apprentices will be involved in every stage, from cultivation to seed to table, including saving seed, propagation, crop storage, drainage, irrigation, soil amendment, garden structures and the experimental design of food polycultures. We will all camp onsite during the season and your work will be with Ianto mostly, though you will need to be resourceful and self-motivated for the periods he's out of the country and teaching elsewhere. Gardens need constant attention and vigilance. We will take only two or three Ecological Gardeners but you have a support team. Building and other workshops held at the Center will be open at halfprice or trade. Read everything you can find on ecological gardening; you'll have to hunt, most of it's buried. Specifically, we recommend:
- Growing Food West of the Cascades. Steve Solomon, 1981. Sasquatch Books. Probably the best bioregional gardening book in N. America. Buy this one.
- Your Kitchen Garden, George Seddon. Mitchell Beazley, 1975. A (thoroughly) English comprehensive gardening guide. Buy the U.S. Edition if possible.
- Ecology. Odum. The basic college text, still really valuable. Find 2nd hand or at a library.
- Territorial Seed Company Catalog. Send a couple of bucks to TSC, Cottage Grove, OR. 97424
- Gaia's Garden. Toby Hemenway, 2001. Chelsea Green. Library. Note especially 2 pages on Ianto's system of polyculture.
- The Lost Language of Plants. Stephen Harrod Buhner. Insightful and well researched. Highly recommended. .
- The Botany of Desire. Michael Pollan, 2001. Random House. Thought provoking and thorough, a viewpoint on cultivated plants. We also highly recommend other Pollan books, especially The Omnivore's Dilemma. .

If this placement in not in the best interests of both student and Center we will refund your fee minus the Non Refundable Deposit. We will not give you any refund after the 1st month. Normally you will work/learn a 5-6 day week, 7am to dark, long hours, often with a long lunch break. We expect you to be focused and productive and take interest in every aspect of co-camping at the Center. You're expected to help cook, maintain buildings and grounds, give tours, run errands, do repairs, etc. Self-motivation and good listening skills are important.
Our Site:
Our summer-time campus is located in the native rainforest of the southern Oregon coast, half an hour from spectacular beaches. Work began on the raw site in 2001 with many volunteers, visitors and those seeking knowledge. We now have a dozen cob, roundwood and strawbale demonstration buildings sculpted into the landscape that you can tour and learn from. The land is remote and rustic. We wheelbarrow materials to the sites, up steep hills and across flimsy bridges. Don't expect city facilities; Eugene is 150 miles away, San Francisco is 500. Coquille (pop. 4000) is close, 4 miles, with a bank, small natural food store, hardware store, etc. Local people are nice, conservative and very astute. Access passes close to the houses of several neighbors, so for their sakes we'll limit total town trips to one per day for all our needs. Expect all weather except snow. It is always cool at night, seldom gets too hot. Bugs are not a problem.
3 meals a day, mostly vegan/vegetarian and organic. Your fee pays for involvement and some instruction, not gourmet specialties, so expect basic nutritious fare, nothing fancy. We can't cater to special diets yet there will be a range of options at most meals. Our policy is to use our own produce and purchased bulk supplies rather than buy packaging, buy local whenever possible, and avoid animal fats, products from distant producers and food with poisons on it.
Make sure you're fit and healthy. Are you at a healthy weight? Do you easily tire? We work long days and the site is demanding. Toughen your feet by walking barefoot a lot, up to a month in advance.
Our instruction team is large and diverse. All are experienced dirtyhands builders and very skilled teachers. Volunteers that come together at different times throughtout the year to camp onsite and share knowledge:

Re: WWE Unleash the Fury
Final 5 WrestleMania Previews
Grudge Match
Triple H
Kurt Angle
The grudge match gone wrong. Or that's what we'd like to think whenever Triple H and Kurt Angle both step into the ring at WrestleMania 23 this Sunday. Both men certainly are angry that they are not main eventing WrestleMania once again but Triple H took it too far back in February. The Cerebral Assassin attacked Kurt Angle while Angle was recuperating from his injury at the Royal Rumble. Triple H beat down Angle on Smackdown to the point Angle had to be helped out of the arena. The fans didn't know why and Angle sure as hell didn't either. Why would Hunter attack a defenseless Kurt Angle? Hunter went on to say it was things like Angle thought he was the best, that he drew the most fans, and that he just loved running his mouth and talking about people? Contradicting huh? It seemed ironic these words were coming out of the mouth of Triple H to many of the fans. But for weeks Hunter had promised Kurt that if he decided to ever face him one on one, that he would put Kurt out of his misery. Ironically Kurt's date to be cleared was April 1st...the day of WrestleMania 23. So Kurt got ahead of himself and accepted the challenge meaning that this monumental match is on par for WrestleMania. Will Kurt pull off a "shock" upset of sorts or will Triple H do what he's been meaning to do for months? Put Kurt out of his misery?
Inter-Promotional Casket Match
The Undertaker
Perhaps one of the most personal matches will be on showcase at WrestleMania 23 whenever the Undertaker meets Umaga in a Casket Match - the first of it's type at WrestleMania. Umaga immediately came into the company making an impact whenever he attacked Batista in the Last Ride Match back at SummerSlam before driving the hearse off backstage. Umaga then proceeded to get out an throw a brick on the throttle forcing the vehicle to crash into a production truck. For months the Undertaker wasn't seen at all in the WWE until he made his return at the Royal Rumble eliminating Umaga from the match. The fans rejoiced as Undertaker came back on a sole mission. However Undertaker suffered a setback at WrestleMania whenever Umaga pinned him cleanly in the ring in their tag match. But Undertaker vouched for revenge. For weeks mysterious notes had been appearing in Umaga's lockerroom saying "Casket Match", "When you look into the eyes of the dragon" and much more. Estrada and Umaga had a clue who they were from and they brought them to Mr. McMahon. Mr. McMahon loved the idea and booked the match for WrestleMania! So now we are set to witness the first ever Casket Match in WrestleMania history. Will Umaga be the first man to end the Undertaker's undefeated streak of 14-0 or will Undertaker claim another victim to his streak?
ECW Championship - Extreme Tournament Finals
Rob Van Dam vs. Mr. Kennedy w/ Paul Heyman
Special Referee: Mick Foley
Paul Heyman had it planned all along or so he says. Heyman drafted both Rob Van Dam and Mr. Kennedy to come to ECW along with him back in January and since then Mr. Kennedy and RVD have been long acquainted with one another. Heyman shocked the world when at No Way Out he was thought to be helping Van Dam but instead shocked the fans. As RVD flew off the top rope for the Five Star Frog Splash Heyman threw the chair at Van Dam making it crash off of his head. The fans watched in awe as Kennedy and Marcus Cor Von both won the tag match and Heyman cemented himself as public enemy number one for the ECW fans. But the interesting twist is now that Heyman has brought in good friend Mick Foley. Heyman has warned Foley that if he doesn't do the "right thing" at WrestleMania that there will be extreme implications. What exactly does Heyman mean by the right thing though?
WWE Championship
Randy Orton
(c) vs.
Chris Jericho
For months Chris Jericho knew there was something wrong. He knew that he was letting his fans - the Jerichoholics down. Jericho started to regain their trust back in January before his former bodyguard Chuck Palumbo ditched him. Randy Orton had promised World-Heavyweight Champion Edge that they would both head into WrestleMania with both of the titles in their hand. And that is just what they have done since last fall. Orton seems to have a stranglehold on the title but Jericho certainly wants to end that. Jericho earned this title shot whenever he beat John Cena, Ric Flair, and Triple H in a Fatal 4 Way to earn the spot and move onto WrestleMania. But since then Jericho has made some wise and tough decisions. For example Jericho laid out Raw GM Jonathan Coachman at his own expense after the Coach teased Jericho and got into his face. But Jericho had to pay for these actions whenever he had to take on Umaga the next week. Umaga won via DQ but it was Jericho that came out looking stronger thanks to the Undertaker showing up. Orton has tried to get into the head of Jericho saying that when Chris signed the contract that he signed his own personal career "death warrant" Will Jericho reign supreme or will Orton find a way to retain the title?
World-Heavyweight Championship
(c) vs.
Shawn Michaels
The past versus the present is what it is being billed as seeing that two of WrestleMania's finest performers will meet one on one at WrestleMania. For Edge he is undefeated and has stole the show at each WrestleMania he's wrestled at in his career so far. For HBK he certainly is no stranger to WrestleMania and afterall his nickname is the Showstopper. But only one man can walk away with the title and the question is lingering. Will HBK be able to take the title away from Edge? HBK has been fighting the odds since JBL decided to "endorse" Edge as his champion. The Smackdown GM felt that Edge would be the perfect champion on his brand and it all stemmed back to the Royal Rumble where HBK eliminatd JBL from the match. But since then HBK has tried to fight the odds but he has found the odds against him for too long in his career. Can the Royal Rumble winner walk away with the title in his hands once more at WrestleMania or will Edge make it 6-0 and retain his title for the second straight year?

COLUMBIA - On the surface, it could look like a glorified bye week. Another directional team from a lower conference among the college football hierarchy. Another yawn sandwiched between games against SEC opponents.
Looks can be deceiving, and they are with East Carolina. The Pirates return star quarterback Shane Carden, who led them to a 10-3 record and Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl win last fall.
East Carolina would be dangerous enough on its own. Its spot on the schedule is downright treacherous. South Carolina will play big games this fall - a trip to Clemson among them - but none bigger than Sept. 13 when it hosts Georgia with SEC East title stakes potentially on the line.
Before preparing for the Bulldogs, the Gamecocks can't overlook the Pirates. South Carolina will be heavy favorites against East Carolina, as it should be. Regardless, ECU has the talent to make things a little too close for comfort if USC is looking ahead.
Here's what to expect from East Carolina this fall.
Opponent bio
Team: East Carolina
Coach: Ruffin McNeill (18-8, third season)
Returning starters: 9 (five offense, four defense)
2013 record: 10-3, 6-2 Conference USA; second place C-USA
Scoring offense: 40.2 points per game (9th in country)
Scoring defense: 24.8 points against per game (49th)
Series: South Carolina leads 12-5
Last meeting: South Carolina beat East Carolina 48-10 on Sept. 8, 2012. You may remember that game as Dylan Thompson's unofficial coming out party. Thompson would have bigger spot starts in relief of Connor Shaw - a road win at Clemson in 2012 chief among them - but this was the first. With Shaw out because of a bruised throwing shoulder, Thompson torched the Pirates for 21-of-37 passing with 330 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions.
Golden Nugget line: N/A
Three things to know about East Carolina
1. New surroundings: The American Athletic Conference doesn't have the same name recognition as the old Big East. Regardless, it's a step above Conference USA. There is no more BCS, but the Pirates will enter their first season under the flag of what would've been a BCS conference in another era. It's not the SEC, but East Carolina can no longer be considered the proverbial "mid-major" among college football.
2. Quality quarterback: The AAC is already building a solid reputation for quality quarterback play. Last year, it was Blake Bortles and Teddy Bridgewater, both first-round picks in last month's NFL Draft. Shane Carden is primed to continue where Bortles and Bridgewater left off. Carden may not be a first-round talent, but he produces big-time numbers. He completed more than 70 percent of his passes last fall for 4,139 yards, 33 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He finished eighth in the country in passing yards and ninth in passing touchdowns. As a senior, Carden will give his team a chance to win every time he steps onto the field.
3. Loaded non-conference schedule: East Carolina will face more challenges than simply moving up from Conference USA to the AAC. Immediately following their trip to Williams-Brice Stadium, the Pirates will travel to Virginia Tech and host North Carolina in consecutive weeks. That makes for one brutal September.
Gamecocks schedule glimpse
Week before: Texas A&M
Next week: Georgia
On the horizon: at Vanderbilt

Cha Ca Thang Long (Vietnamese Turmeric Fish with Dill)
Cha Ca Thang Long is a famous dish popularized in Hanoi and is a favorite meal of ours. Although the name "cha ca" implies that it's a fish paste, it's actually small fillets of flaky white fish marinaded in turmeric and galangal, fried and served with generous topping of dill on a sizzling hot plate.
Hong got me a fajita skillet with a wooden serving tray as a gift a while back–probably as a hint that he wanted me to make this! But I don't mind since I've always wanted one and I love this dish as well. The fragrant flavors of the turmeric and galangal marinaded fish and fresh dill goes so well together. This dish is a real crowd pleaser especially when you bring out the sizzling platter for all to enjoy.
Printable Recipe
• 1 lb of white fish fillets (traditionally catfish is used, but we prefer halibut or cod–but any meaty and flaky white fish will do)
Fish Marinade
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1/4 teaspoon galangal powder (if not available at your Asian market, substitute ginger powder)
• 1 tbs minced garlic
• 1 tbs minced shallots
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon of fish sauce
• 4 tbs of olive oil
Combine olive oil, turmeric, galangal, garlic, shallots, salt, sugar, and fish sauce in large bowl and mix well. Cut the fish into smaller fillets and gently mix, and allow to marinade in the fridge for about 1 hour.
• 1 large red onion, sliced
• 1 cup of green onion cut about 1.5 inch segments
• 1 bunch of fresh dill coarsely chopped (thick stems removed)
• 1/4 cup of dry roasted peanuts, coarsely crushed
• 12 oz. bag of vermicelli noodles (boiled and drained)
• Fresh mints (rau thom), perilla (tia to), lettuce, Vietnamese balm (kinh gioi)
• Black sesame rice cracker (banh da)
Fermented Anchovy Sauce
• juice from approximately 3 limes
• 2 tablespoon of sugar
• 2 tablespoons of water
• 1 teaspoon of mam ruoc (fine shrimp paste)
• 1 teaspoon of minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon of chopped red chili or chili garlic paste
Traditionally this dish is dressed with a fermented shrimp paste sauce that is similar to mam nem (except without the crushed pineapples). This sauce is a bit more pungent (read stinky) than fish sauce but is prepared similar to nuoc mam dipping sauce. First start with the lime, sugar, and water making a bland lime-ade, then slowly add the shrimp paste, mix well and taste and adjust according to taste. The shrimp paste is much stronger then fish sauce so start small and slow. If you don't care for this sauce and prefer nuoc mam dipping sauce, that's not a problem at all.
Putting it all together…
Using the fajita skillet, saute the red and green onions with a bit of oil under medium low heat. At the same time have a separate non-stick skillet to cook the fish fillets about 3 minutes on each side until you get a nice golden opaque color and slight brown crust.
A minute or so before the fish is done, turn the fajita skillet to high and then place the cooked fillets on top of the sauteed onions and scallions. Remove from heat and generously top with fresh dill and roasted peanuts. Serve immediately with vermicelli noodles, fresh lettuce and herbs, black sesame rice crackers, and dress with your choice of dipping sauce.
Can you see the smoke and hear the sizzle?

'There's no stopping us now" was the prevailing and uplifting mood at Friday's announcement about the details of the National Coast Guard Museum proposed for New London's waterfront.
After more than a decade of starts and stops, of excitement followed by disappointment and disagreements over location, it appears that all the elements to make the museum possible are fitting together. The state is committed, the adjacent property owners - Union Station and Cross Sound Ferry - have signed on, the city's administration is fully engaged, and the leadership of the U.S. Coast Guard steadfast in its support.
Fate, it seems, is finally shining on this project.
The U.S. Coast Guard is led by a former Norwich resident and graduate of Norwich Free Academy, someone well aware of this region's maritime heritage and long connection with the Coast Guard.
"I am committed to this and this commitment will go beyond my service in the United States Coast Guard. This museum will be built, it will thrive, and we are going to restore this waterfront to its grandeur," said Adm. Robert J. Papp Jr., Coast Guard commandant, during the announcement ceremonies at the Science & Technology Magnet School.
Only recently New London, seeking more focused leadership, abandoned a stale city manager system in favor of the dynamics of a mayoral-led government. In evidence Friday was the ability of Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio to bring disparate parties together in a way we don't feel a city manager or a volunteer council leader could have.
"He went down to Washington. He arranged for the admiral and I to meet on this issue. He pushed me to get my letter in on time, my $20 million letter. And I really think he deserves a tremendous amount of credit. To put it in other terms, there had to be a lot of cats to be herded to get to this day and he has done a magnificent job in getting us to this point," said Gov. Dannel P. Malloy.
In Malloy, Connecticut has a governor with a willingness to invest state resources to drive development. While we have disagreed with the governor on some of those investments, we do, not surprisingly, consider this $20 million outlay to be a good one. It will pay for a pedestrian bridge access that will not only take museum visitors safely across the rails, but also to a new planned ferry terminal and access arriving and departing trains. It will help spur economic growth and create jobs.
"This is a good, strong investment in the future of a great community which is on its way back," said Gov. Malloy.
As Sen. Chris Murphy aptly said of the museum, "This is going to be transformational."
This "signature building on the Thames," as National Coast Guard Museum Association Chairman James J. Coleman Jr. described it, will demand attention, its glass fa�ade in the shape of ship's prow thrusting out over the river. This will be a landmark for the thousands of ferry and rail travelers who pass the spot daily, and for drivers crossing the Gold Star Bridge.
If built as planned, it will be a destination and visitors will come, fueling commercial development in the adjacent downtown and re-energizing the city. Within the museum's walls they will find not only historic artifacts and changing exhibits, but interactive displays that recreate the exciting mission of the Coast Guard.
But while the project is now closer to reality than ever, from another perspective the challenge now only begins. It will take city, state and federal cooperation to get all the necessary regulatory approvals and coordinate the many entities involved. The task of raising the $80 million to $100 million to build the museum falls to Mr. Coleman and his museum association, but now they have exciting plans to present to potential donors.
This time we are confident there is, indeed, no stopping us now.

glassware favorites from c&b
Thought I'd share some glassware favorites from Crate&Barrel with you today. Clear dishes and serveware are so useful to have around because they coordinate with pretty much any color palette or tabletop design – and I love how C&B often adds interest even to clear glassware with textures and subtle etching…

Vino Wine Glasses (love these!), Illusion Plates, Claudette Goblet, Verve Flutes, and Danube Cake Platter

The NFL's Game Rewind service this year includes for the first time all-22 overhead and end zome camera angle shots for every play. These angles are great for seeing things like where the safeties line up and what the receivers who aren't thrown the ball are doing on a particular play (and what receivers who are thrown the ball are doing before the ball arrives). I also find it very valuable for running plays, as TV's standard low angle shot makes it hard to see what holes are and are not really there. I hope to use it to bring you as many posts as I can about what really happened the prior week.
One of the big storylines out of last week's game was Chris Johnson's 11 carries for only 4 yards. He was reportedly hit at or behind the line of scrimmage eight times and failed to gain more than 5 yards on any play. Naturally the offensive line is getting a lot of blame. Frequently, it really is the offensive line's fault when that kind of thing happens.
Then again, I found the offensive line bore relatively little blame for Johnson's also dismal performance against the Texans at home last year. In that context, I thought it was using all-22 to look at Sunday's game and see how much of the blame rests on Chris Johnson and how much on the offensive line.
Hint: CJ has an awful lot to do with the problems affecting the Titans' running game.
Run #1, 1Q 14:33: 1-yard gain on 2-and-7 from TEN 22
Johnson eschews the hole in front of home, which likely would have produced about a 3 yard gain and cuts back. If he hits the cutback line quickly, he probably picks up 5 yards or so before a closing safety Patrick Chung brings him down. He instead runs laterally, though, and is brought down by Chung and Jerod Mayo, who's not in the shot.
Blame: The blocking is somewhere between fine and pretty good. Johnson gets several yards less on this play than the average NFL back would have.
Run #2, 1Q 13:12: 5-yard gain on 1-and-10 from TEN 40
Another cutback, and there's a big hole. Rather than pressing the run to the outside part of the cutback, Johnson runs to the inside and is brought down by Mayo (the defender on the hashmarks at the 43).
Blame: A successful run, but one Johnson got close to the minimum number of yards on. This could have been a really big play and should have been a better play than it was.
Run #3, 1Q 11:54: 4-yard gain on 2-and-6 from TEN 42
I'd love to know the design of this play. Johnson has three big holes to run from and eschews the wide open spaces with no defender up the middle and on the right to run left, where there are two unblocked defenders. Chung, the defender at the 35, brings him down.
Blame: A relatively successful run, but still one Johnson got close to the minimum number of yards on.
Run #4, 1Q 11:18: 1-yard gain on 3-and-2 from TEN 38
I'd hard to see in the screenshot, but Jared Cook is coming out to block Mayo, the defender at the 35. CJ beats Cook to the hole, then hesitates. That lets Mayo attack downhill aggressively; Johnson tries to elude him, but ends up short of the first down. Had CJ waited for Cook, he can use him to simply get around Mayo. If he plays it aggressively and doesn't hesitate, he probably gets just 2 yards, but that's enough for the first down.
Blame: CJ, not the blocking, is the reason Mike Munchak has a fourth-down decision to make.
Run #5, 1Q 9:33: 2-yard gain on 2-and-9 from NE 12
Outside zone to the right side. After running to the right, CJ cuts it back and is brought down by #74 Love for a short gain.
Blame: See that lane to the left side of the screenshot. That's a much better option instead of cutting back directly into a defensive tackle. CJ should have gotten several more yards on this play than he did.
Run #6, 1Q 6:20: 3 yard loss on 1-and-10 from TEN 18
Inside run. RDE Chandler Jones, standing up, executes a line stunt and hits the hole, leaving CJ nowhere to go.
Blame: Roos didn't fire out aggressively on Jones, instead waiting for him to make a move. That's most likely coached with a standup possible rusher who may be dropping. In that case, this is a rock-paper-scissors win for the Patriots. There was basically nothing CJ could have done to avoid the loss.
Run #7, 1Q 5:42: 2-yard gain on 2-and-13 from TEN 15
Outside run. RDE Jones, who gave Roos fits all day, bulls him back into the backfield. It wouldn't matter much, though, as there's nobody to block Mayo, who's setting the edge hard outside. Hightower is setting a hard edge to the other side. CJ tries bouncing laterally and Mayo brings him down after a short gain.
Blame: There's not a lot to do here. Cook could possibly have picked up Hightower for an extreme cutback run to the offensive right. Another back would put his head down and blast up the middle, possibly finding a gap to one side or the other of #55 Spikes. More likely, though, that choice ends up with 2 to 4 yards and you're still in third and long. Another defensive win more than offensive line failure.
Run #8, 2Q 12:01: 3 yard loss on 2-and-10 from TEN 10
The call is counter off-tackle, like the plays the Titans used to find CJ running room against the Panthers last year. LB Hightower crashes in from the end of the line of scrimmage and blows up the play.
Blame: Offensive line. Hutchinson pulls from his left guard spot, and Hightower beats him to the spot. Eight years ago, Hutch very likely wins this race and the play goes for good yardage. Remind me again why it was a good idea to sign a 35-year-old offensive lineman. Credit to Hightower as well for coming in very aggressively.
Run #9, 2Q 10:59: no gain on 1-and-10 from TEN 18
The Titans start in a spread set, then move Cook in. The Patriots are spread out (they were not packing the box to stop CJ), and the Titans have 6 to block 6. Both defensive tackles, though, play the offensive guards very aggressively, preventing them from firing out to pick up the linebackers. Instead of no unblocked defenders, the Pats end up with a couple and blow up the play.
Blame: Mix of offensive line and RPS advantage. It's tempting to say better execution and better guards could defeat these blocks anyway and pick up the defenders, but if the DTs don't go hard upfield as much as they do, even Hutchinson and Harris make the play.
Run #10, 3Q 0:59: no gain on 1-and-10 from TEN 21
See lane. See Chris Johnson elect not to run forward into lane. See Chris Johnson get 0 yards on play. This is one of those plays where Chris Johnson getting hard behind the line of scrimmage is nonsense. If CJ had simply bothered to run forward, he gets at least 3 yards on this play and possibly more. Instead, he runs laterally, gets hit behind the line of scrimmage, and gets nothing.
Blame: CJ.
Run #11, 4Q 10:13: 5 yard loss on 1-and-goal from NE 1
When Mike Munchak talked about failing to audible out of failed plays in Monday's press conference, this is the best example of what he meant. Vince Wilfork lines up in front of Leroy Harris. On this outside run, Wilfork is center Fernando Velasco's blocking assignment. A reach block against a player like Wilfork is hard enough as it is. When he's lined up not in a shade but directly over the guard, it's basically impossible.
Blame: Matt Hasselbeck. Some people will blame this play on the offensive line, but Velasco has no chance here. If you want to throw some to Chris Palmer, I'm fine with that, but Matt needs to recognize what's going on here. If CJ goes upfield more aggressively, he may only lose 3 yards instead of 5, but that's splitting hairs.
EDIT: OOPS, this is after Jake Locker went out with an injury. Inexcusable play from a veteran here.
This isn't as bad as the Texans game, but it's pretty close. There were a couple runs where CJ had no chance because of the blocking and the at times very good performance of the defensive line. On the whole, though, Chris Johnson should have gained a lot more yards than the 4 he did, and most NFL running backs would have.

10 Perfect Slow-Cooker Recipes for the Holiday SeasonKelsey Banfield
The holiday season is officially here and it is time to get cooking. The only problem is that we are all going a mile a minute and it suddenly seems like there is no time to get anything done let alone cook! What is the answer? For me it is the slow-cooker. Of course, not all slow-cooker recipes are perfect for the holiday season. You don't necessarily want summery soups in the middle of Christmas. However, a lot of things like chili, spaghetti sauce, and a showstopping leg of lamb are perfect for the season. Here are some of my favorite recipes for the slow-cooker that will really fit the bill for feeding your family and friends, and making your life easier during the holidays!
