The saga continues in the realm of wine writer/blogger ethics. Since yesterday, there have been a few more posts on the subject.
Joel Vincent wrote a direct response on his blog, in which he states that Mr. Parker should be ashamed of himself. He takes each point made against the Wine Bloggers' Conference and the wine blogging community, and addresses them one by one. His argument is well-written and quite compelling. He concludes his posting with an appeal to Mr. Parker to step up and lead, rather than criticize bloggers.
You and your voice can be a leader to a new generation of wine writers and lead the change that is happening to the wine writing industry. This change is going to happen. I'm not forcing it, just giving it a platform. I'm not the CA wine industry as Joe seems to thing, I'm just a nerd from MIT that loves wine. If you came to the conference and started to discuss with the community what you believed should be deemed as "responsible" blogging you'd have 200 very enthusiastic bloggers doing their best to live up to the standards set by thought leaders like yourself.
But rather than being the center of the inevitable change, the beacon that guides that change in a responsible direction, you seem to be disparaging what you don't seem to understand. Rather than attending, understanding, and helping, you are pointing at the problems with blogging and offering no solutions.
If thats going to be your stance going forward you should refrain from commenting on what you and your Web2.0 advisors don't understand and stick to tasting wine.
In addition, Lisa de Bruin addresses the issue on her blog, California Wine Life. She argues that counter to the crux of the arguement, that bloggers may benefit from winery involvement.
Frankly, I'd like to see wineries sponsor wine bloggers to get to the WBC. I may end up in hot water for saying this, but I believe the community will benefit if the experienced, contributing, talented bloggers are in the room (and not just the ones who can afford to be there). And why not? Why shouldn't the wine industry invest in the blogging industry as a whole. It certainly isn't going anywhere. Do we want honesty? Sure. Transparency? Of course. So let's set it up that way. We'll need the voices of capable, committed of bloggers (or blobbers) with talent and integrity. Fortunately, I don't think it will be too hard to find those wine bloggers.
Further, Ryan Opaz makes a good point on Wineblogger.info that wine bloggers are the voice of the average wine consumer.
As consumers, we now have a voice. Sometimes uneducated, sometimes biased, but we are the wine drinkers. We're the ones buying wine for dinner, in the grocery store, wine shop or online. Together, our voices are loud, though I hardly think that we're the ones destroying the wine world. We're not hurting anyone.
So far, I haven't seen any further response from Robert Parker. I wonder if we can expect one?
Reading between the lines of all this is, I think that it comes down to one statement: You don't get respect because you want it, you get respect because you earn it. The wine blogger community needs to either step up and prove to the establishment that they are legitimate, or they need to ignore the criticism and forge their own path.

Several area theater groups will combine their talents for "Acting for Autism: A Community Theatre Showcase" at the Youngstown Playhouse.
Proceeds will benefit the Autism Society of Ohio, Mahoning Valley and the event coincides with National Autism Awareness Month.
Aundrea Cika, director of the Mahoning Valley office, said, "It's pretty amazing. The theaters in town have a bit of a reputation for being competitive, and I personally am so excited they chose our charity to reap the benefits of their collaboration."
The fundraiser is being presented by the Youngstown Area Community Theatre Alliance and will feature performances from the Youngstown Playhouse, Victorian Players, Rust Belt Theater Company, Oakland Center for the Arts, Top Hat Theatre, Spotlight Players, Garage Theater and Liz Rubino Studios.
Coordinating the event on stage is John Cox.
"He has a foot in both arenas," Cika said. "He's a pediatrician who is passionate about taking care of children. At the same time, he's a passionate actor. Even in med school, he was on an improv team in Chicago."
Each theater group got to pick what they wanted to do. Some will showcase past productions; other will promote their upcoming shows with a sneak preview of what's to come.
"They're all doing different things," Cika said. "It's not all musicals."
And all of the performers will join in for the finale, along with some young adults on the autism spectrum.
"The toughest thing so far has been when can you do a rehearsal for the finale because everyone is in another show," she said.
They have been sending music and choreography to the performers via email so they can be ready for the abbreviated rehearsal schedule.
"Acting for Autism: A Community Theatre Showcase" starts at 2 p.m. Sunday at the Playhouse, 600 Playhouse Lane, Youngstown. Tickets are $35, which includes the show, heavy hors d'oeuvres and a raffle ticket to win two tickets to a future performance by all of the participating theaters.
Proceeds will be used for the local autism society's arts summer camp in August. For tickets or more information, call 330-743-9184.

A great place to stay in the summer.
Very friendly and nice host.
We had a great time at the Apartment, which was almost direktly at the Moldau. The Hosts were great and there was nothing bad about the Stay. The neighbourhood is quiet but still in walking distance to the center.
We will definetly come back :)
We spent a really good time in this flat, everything is close, beach, shops, bar..
A perfect accommodation in central Budapest on the pedestrian street with a small balcony .
Clean and nice with a bath and all conceivable needed during a stay.
Excellent location, very quiet. Lovely, helpful owner. Only minor criticism is we found the mattress a little too hard.
Great ! just great.
We had a few great days in this old and charming house with all new faciliteit! the housekeepers were very kind and helpful!
Have just returned from a 4 day break at Senorio de Aloha with friends. The accommodation was lovely with ample space and facilities to house all 5 of us. The views of the mountain and over the valley were worh the booking alone!
It was nice to be away from hustle and bustle but close enough to walk down to join in anytime we wanted. Nearest supernarket was a 5 min walk and well stocked, with restaurants and cafes all in the same plaza. Beach and Bunus centre were a leisurely 15 min walk downhill and a slightly more strenuous 20mins back up again. However a taxi from the marina to apartment only cost between 4-6€s. We were delighted with the service we received from Michael too, who went out of his way to ensure our stay was perfect. All in all we would definitely reccomend and I am actually thinking of returning with my family next year.
Prior to making the booking the photos of the apartment looked great.
Once I had made a booking I could only then see the reviews left by others. These made me concerned as they described the apartment as worn out and in need of new furniture and decoration.
The truth turned out to be somewhere between the two, it was better than expected based on the online reviews. The apartment is a bit tired and would benefit from re-decoration but was functionally fine and the complex is very good.
I would consider going there again - but I would also look at other apartments in the same complex and elsewhere.

You may have noticed that Comet ISON appears to have a green halo in some recent images, but in other images acquired at about the same time, it doesn't. Thanks to the beautiful new spectrum posted earlier today by Christian Buil, it's relatively easy to understand why.

Future challenges for Australia's alliance with the United States

The Logic of Interoperability: Australia's Acquisition of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter
7 September 2012
by Adam Lockyer
The 2009 Defence White Paper confirmed that the Australian Government plans to acquire up to 100 F-35 Joint Strike Fighters over the coming decade. The decision was based upon many different calculations, not least of which were cost and capability. However, a significant and less discussed motivation was the advantage of interoperability with the United States military. This paper unpacks the logic of interoperability and argues that it is based upon two seemingly contradictory currents in Australian strategic thought: self-reliance and dependency. It submits that this conceptualization of interoperability is now outdated and should be shifted towards greater political and strategic cooperation. Read paper
The Mormon dilemma: Causes and consequences of anti-Mormonism in the 2012 elections
13 June 2012
By David Smith
In this draft paper, David Smith argues that aversion to Mormons is still an important force in American public opinion, and one that seriously affects Mitt Romney's chances of winning the presidency, even if he ultimately overcomes it. Romney's victory in the 2012 Republican primary has convinced many observers that Romney's religion is now irrelevant to his electoral chances. The thesis that Mormonism does not matter seems to have found some empirical support in a recent online survey experiment, though other survey experiments conducted with random national samples have found the opposite. Romney received a rousing reception from an evangelical audience when he delivered a commencement address at Jerry Falwell's Liberty University in May 2012; he described himself as a Christian rather than a Mormon. Does Romney's success in the 2012 primary really mean that religious identity has melted away as an issue? Read Paper
The first Muslim president? Causes and consequences of the belief that Barack Obama is a Muslim
31 May 2010
by David Smith
This draft paper uses data from the 2008 ANES panel study to explore the surprisingly widespread belief that Barack Obama is a Muslim. David Smith examines two main causal mechanisms: anti-Obama predispositions caused by Republican Party ID and implicit racial bias, which would have created a good pre-existing "fit" for belief in the Muslim rumour, and lack of political knowledge, which would have increased the Muslim rumour's plausibility.

Jesus Q. Politician: Explaining the politicization of religion in the United States, Australia, and Canada
20 October 2009
The religious sociologist Peter Berger once said that if India is the most religious country and Sweden the least, then the United States is a nation of Indians ruled by Swedes. This metaphor is inaccurate, at least with regard to Australia, Canada, and the United States in the latter half of the 20th century. The United States actually comes closer to being a nation of Indians ruled by Indians, while Australia a nation of Swedes ruled by Indians, and Canada a nation of "Swindians" ruled by Swedes.

10 stories you might have missed: 'Hunger Games' director says 'Catching Fire' will not be in 3D
Also: Stephen King's 'Dark Tower' may rise at Warner Bros., Brad Pitt circles 'The Counselor'
Stephen King's 'Dark Tower' may rise again at Warner Bros. with Javier Bardem
The world has moved on. After years of near-misses and speed bumps, a new studio is giving Stephen King's epic opus "The Dark Tower" another chance to reach the big screen.
Universal recently pulled the plug on a potentially cost prohibitive multi-film and TV series take on the 7-book series, starting with "The Gunslinger." Now, director Ron Howard and producers Akiva Goldsman and Brian Grazer may have found a savior for the idea at Warner Bros.
The studio is considering the idea of making a standalone feature version of "The Gunslinger," reports Deadline.com. If successful, it's implied, the rest would follow. It's not clear if HBO, who were scheduled to take on a TV show based on the material, is still be on board.
At Universal, Javier Bardem was attached to play Roland Deschain, the titular hero, and will likely still play the part, although it depends on his schedule. "The Gunslinger" adaptation wouldn't start shooting until early 2013.
In the first book, Roland, the last gunslinger, roams a western-inspired, post-apocalyptic landscape searching for the legendary Dark Tower. Later in the series, a trio of people from other worlds join him in his seemingly futile quest; they are his ka-tet. We'll have to wait and see when -- or even if -- their journey will take them to a multiplex near you.

Bengal Governor clarifies 'paribartan' remark
Ahead of 2011 Assembly elections, the Mamata Banerjee-led TMC had called for 'paribartan'. The election ended 34 years of Left rule.
Kolkata: A day after courting controversy for saying "true paribartan" (change) had touched West Bengal, Governor MK Narayanan on Wednesday said his words referred to Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) win.
"After trying for four years, it (KKR) finally won (the Indian Premier League). It is obviously a change. 'Paribartan' means change. It has nothing to do with the state government," he told reporters.
While addressing the KKR felicitation ceremony at Eden Gardens, Narayanan on Tuesday said: "Today is the true 'paribartan' (change) that the Chief Minister had ushered in last year."
The statement drew criticism from the Left Front.
Ahead of Assembly elections last year, the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress had called for 'paribartan'. The election ended 34 years of Left Front rule.

This was a very good bread crumb recipe! I used it to coat Italian Chicken and it worked out great! Thanks so much for posting!
This was easy and fabulous and an excellent use of the leftover breads in my fridge (i.e. heels, an extra hot dog bun, etc). I did add dried basil to mine because I just can't go without it. Thanks so much.

Whoever thought a little game of bingo might interest a venture-backed San Francisco social media company?
Well, RockYou Inc. liked the online growth of Bingo by Ryzing enough to buy the Center City social gaming developer Ryzing L.L.C. for an undisclosed amount last week.
A statement released by one of Ryzing's investors indicated that Ryzing's team, headed by Manu Gambhir, will join RockYou, which intends to maintain and expand the Philadelphia office.
Wayne Kimmel, a partner in the Artists & Instigators venture fund, said Ryzing currently has 10 full-time equivalent employees, including six in Philadelphia. Kimmel will join the board of directors of RockYou, the company behind the Zoo World line of games on Facebook.

Roosters and balls are concern in Loyalsock Township
May 29, 2013
Loyalsock Township supervisors might have to take action about roosters crowing in residential neighborhoods....
After reading this particular article, I am appalled... or should I say aballed. When did it become State Police interest when a few balls are "accidently" kicked over your fence. I understand the fence was put for privacy and that it should be expected and respected but to not return a CHILD'S ball is the ridiculous thing I have ever heard. I live behind a church where children thankfully play outside all day and on occasion their toys come into our yard. I am happy to give them back to happy healthy children playing outside. Shame on you for feeling put out for a few balls. I hope your trashcan lids never ends up in their yard or heaven forbid one of your childrens toys lands next door. I think you nailed it on the head with the ornery old*****part... Remember to honor thy neighbor...(and not waste State Troopers time over plastic balls).

The rooster is the problem, obey current noise ordinances ... don't outlaw the chickens. As far as the balls - take them out of the chicken yard. To see the benefits of backyard chickens see: ***********backyardchickens****/. Cities such as Anne Arbor, Michigan; Ft. Collins, Colorado; and South Portland, Maine have all voted in the past year to allow residents to raise backyard poultry. Don't reverse that trend in Montoursville.

Keeping chickens in a residential area is just another example of people getting back to their rural roots. People are increasingly incorporating aspects of rural life into residential living. Whether it's using a woodburning furnace or OWB to keep warm, keeping chickens as pets (or rabbits, ducks or geese) or maintaining a vegetable garden in our back yard, we all embrace different aspects of rural life and incorporate them into residential living. It's the American way of life, a reflection of our self sufficiency and a reminder of what it took to build our great nation. At best, a crowing rooster might be a minor annoyance, but certainly no worse than the trains making their way through South Williamsport at midnight or 1:00 in the morning blowing their horns at every track crossing. Certainly there are more important things to complain about.

5 Summertime Tax Moves
|Email Print
Most of us think of tax time as the time from the end of December through the middle of April. And, while this is the time of year that everyone really starts thinking about gathering documents, and figuring what they owe (or what refund is coming), the truth is that you're better off keeping things organized throughout the year. It means less work and bother later on.
On top of that, organizing your taxes throughout the year can help keep you on track for better tax efficiency. As summertime draws to a close, now is a great time to make a few tax moves to set you on the right path:
1. Organize Your System
If you haven't organized your paperwork yet this year, now is the time to do it. Go through your receipts and documents, and straighten everything out. Create a file for your receipts, and organize your information as you receive it. Set it up so that you can find what you need, when it's needed. You can even do it with paperless finances. Get organized now, and it will be much easier come April.
2. Evaluate Your Investments
Check your portfolio to determine your situation. While many people prefer to wait until the end of the year to sell losing investments, it doesn't hurt to look through your portfolio and identify which investments no longer fit your goals. Figure out which investments might provide you with a tax advantage from a capital loss. You can sell now, or you can wait until later, but start thinking about how you want to proceed.
3. Make a Few Charitable Donations
Donate to charity all year. If you haven't made your donations, or if you plan to make more, start doing so now. Take the time, now, to look ahead and start adding up where you can give to receive a tax deduction for your charity.
4. Give Gifts
This year (2012) is a great year to reduce your estate, if you have one. For now, the estate value exclusion is set to expire with the year (unless Congress acts), and the unified amount you can give as gifts, tax free, will also fall. It's much more fun to give money away now, tax-free, when you can watch the recipients enjoy it. Right now, the amount you can give, total, is $5.12 million. You can give $13,000 to individuals, up to the limit. You can reduce your estate, and your heirs will enjoy more money — tax-efficiently.
5. Look for Other Credits and Deductions
As you consider the rest of the year, look at what other credits and deductions you might be eligible for. You can consult with a tax professional to find out what options you have, and especially which credits and deductions are set to expire soon. Plan now, adding up the possibilities. From business expenses (if you have them), to learning credits, to other tax breaks, look at how you can reduce your income, as well as reduce what you owe through credits.
This time of year is a great time to plan your tax-efficiency, and make moves now — throughout the year — to improve your situation.{ 3 comments, please add your thoughts now! }

Couples Still Tops Senior Players Championship
After polishing off an 8-under 62 in the morning in his weather-delayed second round, Fred Couples tacked on a 67 in the afternoon to take the 54-hole lead in the Senior Players Championship. The $2.7 million Champions Tour major began Thursday at Fox Chapel Golf Club in Pittsburgh.
The 53-year-old from Seattle carded eight birdies in the second round and added five more in the afternoon - along with two bogeys - to reach 15-under 195, two shots ahead of an equally hot Kenny Perry.
Perry, who opened with a 71, is keeping pace with Couples thanks to two straight 63s.
Friday's second round was canceled after a thunderstorm brought a half-inch of rain in 30 minutes, overflowing creeks and turning fairways into small ponds. Sixty-six players had not completed their rounds before play was halted.
Couples birdied seven of his first 12 holes Friday before having to retreat to the clubhouse and continue Saturday morning. He added six pars and anther birdie for his second-round 62.
Four strokes behind Couples is Duffy Waldorf (66), while five back are first-round leader John Huston (68) and Mike Goodes (65).
Mark Calcavecchia (66) is in solo fifth at 202, while another stroke back are Morris Hatalsky (66), Corey Pavin (67), Michael Allen (68) and Jeff Hart (70).
In his Champions Tour debut, Scotland's Colin Montgomerie has recorded rounds of 69, 70 and 68 and shares 16th at 3-under 207.

Summer is here! With the arrival of warmer weather, often comes the desire to eat healthier and workout. These days what I am seeing is the microwave get quite the workout.
Without naming names, we all know the frozen microwave meals that promote health and weight loss. The other day, I bumped into a friend in the lunch room, who was warming up her meal and proudly exclaimed that she was "getting healthy for the summer" while holding up a box of Fettuccini Alfredo. At first pass it does look like a healthy option. The photo on the box features nearly a dozen large pieces of broccoli and hearty egg noodles lightly coated in sauce. What came out of the microwave was a very different story. There were four pieces of sad wilted broccoli and limp noodles drowning in a pasty grey sauce.
When I examined the ingredients on the box it was clear this was no healthy option. The ingredients themselves had lists and lists of ingredients. Many of which were hard to pronounce chemicals that are known toxins. Broccoli was at the end of the 50+ ingredient list for this single 1 cup portion of pasta.
We all know the saying you are what you eat and it is true! Our body takes in food and transforms it into our cells, organs, body, skin, hair, nails, and eyes and so on. A daily dose of essential nutrients, vitamins and minerals will create a healthy body. What is the effect when we are consuming chemicals? I looked up the chemical ingredients in my Food Additives book. Let's take a look at these mystery ingredients and the impact they could have on our body, according to the book:
– Palm Oil: most commercial palm oil is refined, deodorized, bleached and used in processed foods; it is not only unhealthy, but the farming producing these oils is contributing to the destruction of the rainforests
– Calcium Phosphate & Dipotassium Phosphate: may reduce mineral absorption; may cause kidney damage
– Disodium Inosinate & Disodium Guanylate: can aggravate gout; may be soy or yeast based; used in products containing MSG
– Sodium Phosphate: skin, eye and respiratory irritant; can inhibit mineral absorption; may cause blood pressure, kidney disturbances, water retention
– Maltodextrin: a sugar, hydrolyzed corn starch; may be genetically modified; may contain free glutamates or MSG (obesity, diabetes, migraines, headaches, itching, nausea, brain damage, nervous system disorder, reproductive disorders, high blood pressure, autism, ADHA, Alzheimer's, retina damage &, blindness) This ingredient showed up 3 times!
– Sodium Caseinate: avoid if milk allergy or MSG sensitive; contains free glutamates or MSG (obesity, diabetes, migraines, headaches, itching, nausea, brain damage, nervous system disorder, reproductive disorders, high blood pressure, autism, ADHA, Alzheimer's, retina damage &, blindness)
– Corn Syrup: associated with blood sugar problems, depression, fatigue, B-vitamin deficiency, hyper-activity, tooth decay, periodontal disease, indigestion
– Potassium Citrate: may cause mouth ulcers; avoid if kidney or heart problems
Yikes! This does not sound like it leads to the path to health and wellness. I get it, these meals are quick and easy, but in the long run we are always better off choosing whole foods. The ingredients are simple, broccoli is just broccoli packed with nutrients that boost immunity, brain function, regulate blood pressure prevent cancer and much more. We pay the price of the chemical short cut by stressing the body, forcing it to process these harmful chemicals. When our body can no longer keep up with what we input disease presents itself. For a healthy and satisfying pasta dish try my recipe below for Spicy Peanut Buckwheat Noodles. It is quick, easy and flexible. Change it up but adding any vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouts or herbs you like.
Eat well!

The YWCA of Northcentral PA will celebrate its fourth annual Tribute to Women of Excellence at 6 p.m. Nov. 7 at the Holiday Inn, 100 Pine St.
The 2012 class of women personifies the requirements of a Woman of Excellence - the determination required of a strong leader, the selflessness required of a community servant, and the grace and integrity of one committed to the mission of the YWCA - eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity to all.
"Women of Excellence is our opportunity to identify those women who may or may not have been recognized by the community at large for what they have given back," said Diane Glenwright, YWCA executive director. "These women embody goodness. They deserve our respect and praise."
Serving dozens of nonprofit organizations between them, caring for others in their personal and work lives is the common thread. While some are retired from the workforce, the careers and volunteer work of all of these women focus upon improving the quality of life of all those with whom they interact.
"If you are nominated, someone has recognized that you have gone above and beyond the norm," Glenwright said of the honorees. "You are an extraordinary person who cares about people and make the world a better place to live."
Glenwright believes there is no end in sight to this touching tribute.
"We continue to look for Women of Excellence because there are so many outstanding women yet to be recognized."
When nominations were made for Wise Woman of the Year, nominators looked for a woman whose achievement's epitomize and personify individual potential.
The award goes to one with compassion, commitment and perseverance to making a more peaceful, productive community and enhancing the quality of life in Northcentral PA.
Barbara Hudock was named Wise Woman of the Year. As CEO and founding partner of Hudock Moyer Wealth Resources, it is clear that Hudock's skills and success extend far beyond the four walls of her office. This Williamsport resident has made her presence known throughout Lycoming County by her impact on nonprofit organizations and countless lives that have been affected by her generosity.
Hudock's Wise Woman nomination stated that "Her energy and enthusiasm are contagious and once under her spell you become a believer in her cause - whatever it may be."
That enthusiasm is easy to see in her long-list of community involvement. She is a director of WVIA Public TV & Radio, Susquehanna Health, the Pershing Advisor Solutions Advisor Council and a former director of the First Community Foundation Partnership of Pennsylvania, Williamsport Lycoming Chamber of Commerce and co-chair of the YWCA's capital campaign.
As a former director of the Community Arts Center, and having co-chaired a successful endowment campaign for the Williamsport Symphony Orchestra, Hudock's commitment to the arts has been awarded. In 2008 she earned the Governor's "Patron of the Arts" award given by Gov. Ed Rendell. In addition to many professional awards, designations and recognition, Hudock received citations from Congress, the senate and governor when she received the State of Israel Bonds Jerusalem Star Award in 2011.
A graduate of Bloomsburg University, she sat on Bloomsburg University's Foundation Board for 15 years.
After receiving her undergraduate degree, Hudock continued her education through the Securities Industry Institute, a financial industry education program, and completed her Certified Portfolio Manager certification in 2011 through Columbia University.
While she believes in continuing education for herself, Hudock also provides the same through education events and hosting interest groups.
"The qualities that define Barbara Hudock include hard-working, loving and amazingly generous," her nominator wrote. "She cares about the well-being of people and shows it, not by talking about it, but by going out to help."

U.S. national team prospect Mikkel Diskerud scored his first league goal for Rosenborg on Friday in a 5-2 win over Haugesund. It was the 21-year-old midfielder's second goal since joining the club in August after spending the spring with Belgium's KAA Gent.
Diskerud represented both Norway and the U.S. (his mother is American) at the junior level but has been committed to the Americans since '09. He made his U.S. senior national team debut in November '10, when he got the assist on Juan Agudelo's winning goal against South Africa, and he started all three games for the Under-23 side at the Olympic qualifying tournament last March.
Diskerud scored his first goal for RBK, and 87th-minute game winner, on Aug. 30 in a 2-1 UEFA Europa League win over Legia Warsaw. His maiden Tippeligaen strike came Friday as RBK held a 4-2 lead over visiting Haugesund in the closing moments at the Lerkendal Stadion. Diskerud, who started the match, finished off the scoring in the 88th minute when he raced into the penalty area and deftly redirected a cross from Costa Rican defender Cristian Gamboa.
RBK now is in first place in the Tippeligaen at 12-2-10, one point above defending champion Molde FK, which has a game in hand. It will host Germany's Bayer Leverkusen in a Europa League match next Thursday.

Poll finds more Americans believe in aliens than Bigfoot
Poll conducted by Public Policy Polling
More Americans believe in aliens than Bigfoot, according to a conspiracy theory poll by Public Policy Polling.
Around 29 percent of those polled said aliens exist, compared to 14 percent who believe in Bigfoot.
Among the other results:
-- Seven percent think the moon landing was fake.
-- Only 25 percent think Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
-- Half of those polled think there was a larger conspiracy in JFK's death.
-- 15 percent think the media or government adds mind-controlling technology in TV signals.
This was an automated poll, and pollsters said the results need to be taken with a grain of salt.

My parents, that is. I know I talk all the time about how excited I am to go home and how much I love my mom and how we all get along so well… but life's not always smiles and laughter.
I've said before that I got my start at a young age in running with girls on the run. My parents were both runners and signed me up, although they weren't nearly as fast as I've become. At that age, I didn't know any better. The running bug didn't really hit me until junior year in high school when I joined xc on a whim to improve my swimming times. Before that, I had the endurance to run significant distances but I didn't have the drive. Since then, my parents have stopped running due to knee injuries, back injuries, etc. They are still very active but running is no longer on the agenda.
When I go out and run 40-50 miles a week my parents criticize me. When I come home on vacations they try to convince me to go for 3-mile walks with them instead of going out for a 6-10 mile run. Sorry, but it's not the same thing at all. I get so frustrated because I'm not running to "lose weight" or maintain compulsive exercise tendencies; I'm doing it because I love it. They don't get that. But they should, since they did the same thing.
Yesterday when we came home from waterville, I went for a 3 mile walk with my mom. I had already run up a mountain and back (only about 6 miles) that morning, and was planning on going to zumba in the afternoon. While we were walking, she said "I thought you were going to take off running for 2 months after xc ended". I never said I was going to take two months off. I said I had 2 months off of training to rest up for track, but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop exercising. It means I can go out for a short run or a long run, depending on how I feel, and I won't be doing intense speed workouts and races every weekend.
She proceeded to explain to me that I am going to ruin my body if I didn't start cross training a lot more and run shorter distances and less often. She "knows it" and doesn't know anyone that started running at such a "young" age who is still able to run. She's convinced that I'm going to become injured to the point that I'm unable to run really early if I don't cut way back now. I tried to explain that it's different for me since I'm under close watch by my coach and that I'm following a very strict training plan. Not to mention that I'm not her and my body is different than hers.
It ruined the entire mood for the walk and it's something that comes up every time I go home for a vacation, which really bothers me. I am careful in my training. I don't overtrain. I make sure to stretch, I don't do anything if it hurts me, and I have a coach that is extremely cautious. He never pushes us if there is a slight chance of us being injured.
I don't know if any of you have ever experienced this, but for me it's dejavu from when I was in the heart of my ED and my parents cut me off all exercise. I was miserable. I love working out. It's a release for me. So to have parents who have been in my place before and still not support me, that's really hard. I'm going to cut way back on my running, but I'm going to do it when I first get home for Christmas and I can go to the gym and do yoga, zumba, pilates, go skiing, walking, etc. It's going to take time for me to adjust and this week I'm already cutting back to 35 miles.
I know that my parents only want what's best for me and they're worrying about me overdoing it. They want me to be able to run until I'm 80 if that's what I want to do, but sometimes I wish they would pretend to understand where I'm coming from, and see what I'm saying. I really believe I'm doing the right thing for my body, and to have the people I care about most in the world doubt me is one of the hardest parts about coming home.
This is clearly a major vent session, so sorry if it's boring to read. It's just something that's been on my mind for a long time.
Have you ever been criticized for over-exercising?
Are your families supportive of your workout habits?

You want to feel old?
Like really old?
Well 21 years ago today, Feb 20th 1992, The Simpsons provided FOX with their first ever prime time with the now classic episode "Home At The Bat", besting The Cosby Show and the Winter Olympics from Albertville.
It was a time where Jose Canseco was used unironically and Ozzie Smith, ahem, still had all his Gold Gloves.
Erik Malinowksi of Deadspin wrote an entire retrospective on the episode (LINK HERE), but I wanted to point out the Wizzard's excerpt:
St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Ozzie Smith stopped by in early September with his Bart impersonating son Nikko, who himself wound up on Fox television 14 years later as an American Idol finalist. "I knew he was a Simpsons fan and had the Bart thing down pretty good," Smith told me, "but I didn't know he could do anything like that. " Smith also made sure to work through his script beforehand, unlike his peeved Centerfielder. "I worked on those lines, even though there wasn't really a whole lot of them," he says. "I just wanted to get the inflections in the right place."
Hard to believe that the Simpsons is still going strong and that a whole group of people were born the day this aired are now allowed to legally drink.
Now enjoy Ozzie falling off the face of the Earth. Make your own joke about his finances.
At least we'll always have this…

Megan of Not Martha just posted some fabulous April Fool's food projects up on Ready Made.
Reading over these fantastic recipes for vanilla pudding dessert pot pie and mashed potato cupcakes makes me even more sad that this sacred holiday is on a Saturday. My poor co-workers will feel so left out!
The family fun website has an impressive index of great silly food trickery projects to do.
I'm a little bit disappointed I hadn't spotted this great cheese sandwich project earlier! So, do you have your April Fool's meals ready?

The United States will start easing sanctions on Iran after the Iranian regime halted the most controversial part of its uranium enrichment program Monday.
That theoretically means the Islamic Republic will not continue to enrich uranium to the level that can be used to manufacture nuclear weapons, at least not during the six-month negotiated deal with world powers.
Iran took that step -- a key move toward complying with the nuclear deal with the West -- in the presence of international inspectors.
Tehran agreed to that deal to get economic sanctions lifted that have somewhat crippled the economy.
Iranian leaders have also agreed to open their nuclear program to more U.N. inspections during the next six months.
Last week, however, Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi told Iranian television it would take less than a day to "return again to 20 percent enrichment," The Daily Beast reported on Friday.

With the colder temperatures settling in, experts suggest having your furnaces and fireplaces checked before firing them up.
"What we'll see tonight and the next couple of days is carbon monoxide calls people will fire up those furnaces that haven't been on for a while and the folks that haven't had them checked yet somebody's going to have an issue," said Jason Rhodes, a public information officer for the Overland Park Fire Department.
The fire department also recommends having fireplaces and furnaces inspected by a professional before using them for the first time in the fall. They also stress that homeowners should have a working smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector on all levels of your home.
"Some people are going to fire those (fireplaces and furnaces) up and may have a problem. (Those who) may not have a carbon monoxide alarm get sick or worse, that concerns us. we want people to remember when you turn those things on for the first time make sure you have a carbon monoxide alarm. Also professional inspection helps. Make sure they're operating properly," Rhodes said.

I can honestly say, after only watching hockey for about 5 or 6 years, I know that I've learnt so much more from the Red Wings and it's fans, than I could ever have from supporting any other team. Just their core values of drafting and developing, and their use of the basics. It's no coincidence that Lidstrom (for me) is the best defenceman of the last decade (there is the case for all time but I can't claim to have seen him in the 90s etc), and yet there is no one better than him at the basics of defensive play.
Ummmmmm... Is there one single true claim in this entire piece of garbage article?
"The Detroit Red Wings are the New York Yankees of the NHL" We buy our championships, really? Not only has there been a salary cap for the past five years but even when there wasnt, our core was home grown. Steve Yzerman, Sergei Fedorov, Nick Lidstrom, Chris Osgood, Vladimir Konstantinov, Slava Kozlov, etc.
"The Detroit Red Wings are arrogant" Who???? LMAO! Steve Yzerman? Brendan Shanahan? Nick Lidstrom? Chris Osgood? Henrik Zetterberg? Pavel Datsyuk? Val Filppula? Brian Rafalski? Jimmy Howard? These are some of the most humble guys in the entire league.
"The Red Wings fans are some of the least knowledgeable, obnoxious, arrogant group of wannabe hockey fans I've ever had the displeasure of meeting." Ummm.... I dont even know how to respond to this one.
Really naive comment to say that there is a lack of knowledge surrounding this organisation.
