Well, I did say dare...
"Come on, Jenny. Spin the bottle already!" Someone called out from the circle. I looked around at the circle of five other people. How the fuck did this happen again? I remember some of us were a little bored at this party my friend Megan was throwing, and someone said spin the bottle, and someone else said truth or dare. So they compromised. Spin the bottle and whoever it lands on...Read On

I just sat there watching them do everything but show...Read On

My stepson and I had a good deal and sex.
I was putting all my stuff into big cardboard boxes, when I heard the doorbell. I grabbed a towel and wiped all the sweat off my face, and then headed to open the door. "Hi," the young man standing in front of me said, "Mandy," he finished, calling me by my name. It was my stepson, Johnny. He never called me mom or stepmom. For him, I was just a woman his dad fucked a couple of times and...Read On

Dukes Fall to Top Seeded Richmond, 4-1, In Semis
April 12, 2003
PITTSBURGH, PA - The fifth-seeded men's tennis team fell to top-seeded Richmond, 4-1 in the semifinals of the Atlantic 10 Championship at the Oxford Athletic Club in Monroeville, PA.
Junior Micael Lopez-Acevedo (Guaynabo, PR / Colegio Marista / Bowling Green), the men's co-player of the week entering the championship competition, continued his winning ways as he picked up the Dukes lone victory in number 2 singles with a 6-2, 6-4 win over Niki Doll. The Puerto Rican native raised his singles record to 19-8.
The match was called once Richmond achieved their fourth win at number 3 singles as Richmond earned the point when Matthew Cabana topped freshman Russell Moseley (St. Michael, Barbados / Louis Lynch Secondary), 6-0, in the third and deciding set. This stopped play in number four and five singles and number two doubles. The freshman and his sophomore brother Ryan (St. Michael, Barbados / Harrison College) each won sets to go along with Lopez-Acevedo winners.
The Dukes will take on the number 3 seed Xavier tomorrow, Sunday, April 13th at 11:00 a.m. for third place. The Musketeers lost to St. Bonaventure (No. 2) 4-2 in the day's other semifinals. The Spiders, the defending men's tennis league champions, will face the Bonnies for the 2003 title.
Duquesne is looking to post the Dukes highest finish in the Championships as they have finished fourth twice with the last being in 2000. Xavier looks to match their best finish from both the 2001 and 1996 seasons when they placed third.

How We Help
Electronic Field Trips give students the opportunity to learn about a particular topic through national parks they may never get a chance to visit. Each EFT consists of two components:
- a televised broadcast from a national park featuring National Park Service Rangers and youth hosts
- a website featuring downloadable lesson plans for teachers and interactive games for students.
The broadcast and the website complement each other and teach with rich imagery and content in three different modalities.
All of our past EFTs are ready to be used at any time with your students in the gallery below. Note that you can now watch our newest EFT in shorter segments by subtopic at the modules link below its title thumbnail.

In the final week before Hell in a Cell this Sunday, WWE faced the tough task of building toward the pending pay-per-view and confirming the rest of the card for the show. On both Raw and SmackDown, WWE pushed the pay-per-view as best as it possibly could in an attempt to convince viewers that it will indeed be worthy of watching.
Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton clashed several times over the course of the week, but it was the bearded yes-man who was the last man standing when all was said and done. Could this indicate that Bryan will be the WWE champion come Sunday, or will Orton find a way to bounce back from his recent shortcomings?
John Cena will remain off WWE television until Hell in a Cell, but that didn't stop World Heavyweight champion Alberto Del Rio from running his mouth this past week. Will the Mexican aristocrat take advantage of Cena's injured arm in their upcoming match, or will the leader of the Cenation be the one to finally unseat Del Rio as world champion?
CM Punk received a major boost in momentum with a blockbuster victory in tag team action alongside Big E. Langston on Raw. Can he carry said momentum inside Hell in a Cell with him when he finally gets his chance to silence Paul Heyman once and for all?
Here, I will break down the week in wrestling by analyzing the Monday Night Raw, Friday Night SmackDown and WWE Main Event broadcasts, including each show's highlights, low points and other noteworthy, monumental moments. Also, an award will be given to the show and Superstar that shined the brightest over the course of the week.

Garmin nuvi 58LM review
Garmin's nuvi 58LM is designed to keep things simple.
Car Tech WeekIn the age of apps and smartphones a sat nav needs to tick all the boxes and then some. So how does TomTom's latest stack up?
By adding a dash cam to the standard sat nav, Garmin has made the sat nav desirable again. It will now get you to your destination AND potentially cut your insurance costs…
TomTom delivers a great-value sat nav with features aplenty and an oh-so-modern twist – it takes some of its information from your smartphone, so you don't need to use your smartphone as a, er, satnav. Let's hit the road! Inexpensively!
TomTom is one of the big guns in the world of sat navs. Now that smartphones rule the world, can TomTom's app keep it on top?
Formerly Skrobble, Scout's freemium sat nav app has been an under-the-radar favourite for a while now. Time to jump on the bandwagon?
Your phone has all that's needed for GPS navigation and CoPilot's polished, inexpensive app takes full advantage. Time to ditch your standalone nav?
TomTom's latest sat nav has a 6-inch LCD screen and it's cheaper than the rest, but is it the right sat nav system for you?

Something for the weekend: improve your language skills
Ciara O'Brien
We may have no chance of making it to the next round of the Euros, but if you're hanging around for the Italy match, this app might come in handy.
Polski Me is a mini phrase book for your smartphone, complete with audio recordings because let's face it, most of us wouldn't have a clue how to pronounce them if we just saw them written down.
But it's not a phrasebook in the boring "How do I get to the station? Where is the nearest police station? Can I have the bill please?" way.
Sure, there are everyday phrases in there too, but you'll also be able to boast about never beating the Irish (metaphorically speaking, of course), telling someone that their beauty is dazzling, or ascertaining if those are, in fact, real. Useful phrases, you see.
You've no one to blame but yourself though if you try the line "You're ugly but you intrigue me".

New technology at St. Mary Medical Center maps out bright future for AFIB patients
HOBART — Move over IMAX! There is another heart-stopping visual experience in the region! Imaging and computer-generated road mapping unite as new technology that offers new hope for patients who experience heart rhythm disturbances.
Electrophysiologists at St. Mary Medical Center who treat patients for electrical malfunctions of the heart are first to use the new technology, called CartoMerge™ Image Integration Module. Physicians are now able to create 3-D maps of the heart's inner chambers with CT (Computed Tomography) images. By merging CT scans with a computer generated CARTO™ XP System 3-D map, electrophysiologists have a more precise view than ever before of the inside chambers of the heart, allowing them to accurately locate, map, and eliminate arrhythmias through a procedure called catheter ablation.
Atrial fibrillation is a condition in the upper chambers of the heart caused by electrical malfunction or mixed signals. Patients with the condition experience a rapid, uneven heartbeat. Those with an irregular and fast heartbeats may have symptoms that include dizziness or lightheadedness; palpitations or fluttering in the chest; sensations of a racing heartbeat or shortness of breath. Some 2.2 million Americans have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, and more than 90,000 new cases are diagnosed annually. If left untreated, atrial fibrillation can result in serious health conditions, including stroke.
Patients who will benefit from this new technology are those with atrial fibrillation and medication has been ineffective or its side effects too debilitating.
Areas of tissue around the lung veins (pulmonary veins) are the focal point during a catheter ablation - a procedure where energy destroys the problem tissue inside the heart, says Mark Dixon, D.O., medical director of the Cardiac Electrophysiology department at St. Mary Medical Center. However, the layout of those veins varies greatly patient to patient.
With the CARTOMERGE™ Module physicians use an image from a CT scan and transfer it to the CARTO™ XP System workstation, where they are able to view the pulmonary veins like never before, Dixon said.
"In the past, the computer would draw what was a hollow tube as the inside of the vein. Now, we see an exact definition of the patient's anatomy," Dixon said. "We can look at the screen and it's a real-time road map that leads straight to the affected atrial tissue and eliminates guesswork.
"It's wonderful technology," said Raghuram Dasari, MD, a cardiac electrophysiologist at St. Mary's who has extensive experience with ablations using the CARTO system. "It makes ablation procedures safer for our patients, enhances our visualization making it more efficient, quicker, and, improving our success rate."
Scott Kaufman, DO, also a cardiac electrophysiologist at St. Mary's, believes the new technology also will greatly enhance similar procedures in patients with certain types of congenital heart disease, offering improved visualization to the inner chambers of the heart.
The EP Lab of St. Mary Medical Center participates in numerous clinical investigations that deal with the electrical system of the heart. Many of the studies research new devices such as defibrillators and leads that will be utilized in the future to treat life-threatening arrhythmias. One such recent study has led to the availability of remote home monitoring systems for defibrillator patients. Other studies involve the use of new technology in new ways to treat congestive heart failure. Patients interested in these studies should contact their cardiologist for a referral to the EP Lab.

Identifying the right expert witness and drilling them as to what will be expected are crucial precursors to having them take the stand and satisfy a judge, argues Gerard KhoshnawThe art of choosing, instructing and managing experts is often underestimated and given insufficient attention and focus.Property disputes that result in litigation can often hinge upon the credibility of your chosen expert, as well as their ability to simplify and explain cogently complex issues in plain English and demonstrate a reasoned approach in dismantling opposing views without dogmatism and intransigence.So what issues should be considered when expert evidence is required and how should lawyers approach achieving their aims?Identifying the field of expertise required is not always simple. Specific experience and expertise of the key issues in your case should be identified. If it does not exist, choose someone else. If in doubt, explain to the proposed expert the experience you require and how they would feel being cross-examined in the witness box by your opponent's counsel on the key issues. A range of CVs should be obtained and assessed carefully. Check how long the expert has been qualified in their field of expertise. Ask who has instructed them recently and whether you can contact that person for a view on their performance. Do they have any testimonials they can point to?For the full article and more information about The Lawyer, please click

You are welcome Sabine!
I have had a few hard days. Not too sure why, just feeling a bit down and unmotivated and hopeless. I have been trying to regain my perspective and remember that I have already lost a bunch of weight, and I am feeling better (even on a bad day) than I ever did on SAD.
Yesterday I had brusselsprouts again for dinner. I made a point of taking an even smaller helping, chewing really well, and it wasn't as bad but I still got stomach ache and bloating. Now, however, I am not 100% sure that it was the brusselsprouts as I had a lot of nuts (again) and even quite a bit of cheese - raw but not particularly aged. So, I really don't know if it was the sprouts or the overindulging in the other things that caused my stomach to feel upset. I guess the next time I have them I need to be sure that I have not been overdoing other stuff first. I want to know if they need to be avoided. Not doing too well on my research there huh!?
Today, didn't do much. Nasty weather - very windy, rain, snow, hail all mixed up together! Felt tired - up late again last night. I am doing SO badly with getting to bed on time. I have fallen off the sleep wagon quite thoroughly! I wonder if that is what has me feeling tired and low, mmmm, kind of silly if I look at it like that huh? I have been feeling like I am missing some nutrient, maybe it is the sleep one! I have been cruising for food, fortunately there is only primal food here so I haven't been eating crap (correction - the kids have Easter chocolate around but I don't want it, not what I am looking for!) I really think that the sleep is part of the missing link for me! Only as I have been writing this does it seem clearer. I am going to really try and make an effort to be in bed before 10:30 tonight and then work the time back a bit at a time until I am going to sleep much earlier. As a kid I used to be in bed by 8 pm and then up with the dawn and I felt great. Even before I got married I would wake up at about 5 am everyday, and to sleep by 9pm every night. I had loads of energy even though I had a bad diet. I know I am a person who needs more sleep, always have. However, I do find that if I go to bed before DH (most of the time) I will fall asleep immediately. BUT, when he comes to bed I almost always startle awake and then can't get back to sleep! Drives me crazy! And he is not noisy at all - I am just hyper sensitive to the slightest noise or movement or glimpse of light. Sometimes I wonder if it is all the years of night duty that has affected me and then of course the kids. But I think that if I just make an effort to get to bed about the same time every night hopefully my body will settle into a better rhythm. I do find that taking a melatonin helps me when I wake up and can't get back to sleep. But, I don't like to have to take them so much.
I want to try and track every amount of everything I eat tomorrow and get a feel for whether I am doing ok for macronutrients etc. I don't have a great example to model how much of each I should be getting and how much I am actually getting. This is for me to try and get a realistic picture of how much I am taking in and where I need to tweak my portions. Be interesting to see.
I need to head for bed, sleep well all, sweet dreams!

New Legislation Requires Basic STAR Exemption Registration NEW 9/2013New legislation requires all homeowners receiving a Basic STAR exemption to register with the New York State Tax Department in order to receive the exemption in 2014 and subsequent years. This is part of a new initiative to protect New Yorkers against inappropriate or fraudulent STAR exemptions.
Who must register?Resident homeowners who currently receive the Basic STAR exemption must register with the New York State Tax Department in order to receive the exemption in 2014 and subsequent years.
Senior citizens receiving the Enhanced STAR exemption are not affected by the new registration requirement. However, in order to receive Enhanced STAR, seniors must continue to apply annually or participate in the Income Verification Program.
Resident homeowners applying for STAR for the first time are not affected by this year's registration procedure and should contact their local assessor.
The Tax Department will mail instructions to all homeowners who currently receive the Basic STAR exemption. The letters will include a STAR code that homeowners will need to register. The fastest and easiest way for homeowners to register is through the Tax Department's Web site, www.tax.ny.gov.

April 3, 2000
Bothell resident Ken Larson has been around the world amassing experiences, interesting interactions, and memorable moments which have given his life enormous color.
His various careers, as an instructor pilot for the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War, an attorney, and a fisherman, have taken him to Somalia and parts of East Africa, Micronesia, Guam, and other South Pacific islands.
Years ago, he began writing nonfiction pieces, articles, and textbook chapters as a way to communicate his experiences and ideas. About three years ago, Larson decided to try writing a novel. The result is a book entitled An Escape to Calpe, an action-adventure thriller soon to be distributed by The 1stBooks Library (at www.1stbooks.com on the Web) in both printed and electronic form. The book will also be available in paperback from all major bookstores.
An Escape to Calpe takes the reader from the jungles of war-torn Vietnam, through Europe, and into the deserts of East Africa. It is the story of former Vietnam War P.O.W. Dusty Rhodes, who stumbles upon a terrorist plot against the U.S. involving sophisticated and deadly high-tech weapons against which there might be no defense.
Larson's ideas for the story stemmed from interactions with Vietnam War vets while in a military hospital, and his experiences in Somalia and the Republic of Djibouti.
"I was living in Somalia during the start of one of their civil wars," explains Larson, "and while I was in Djibouti, there were several acts of terrorism that happened, both of which impacted me greatly. It took me two months to write the first draft of this book, but three years to edit and refine it. The current version doesn't really resemble much of the first draft, but I'm delighted with the results."
Larson gets mental pictures of his characters and they become real to him as he writes. He says, "The characters take over and lead me to places that weren't in my original plan. I think about them a lot and they get involved in my life. It sounds funny, but for a writer, it's an exciting part of the creative process."
The action-adventure genre has always interested Larson and he cites Ludlum, Clancy, and LeCarré among his favorite authors. It's the combination of travel and the adventures that come with traveling, in addition to the suspense of not knowing what will happen next, that interest him.
In An Escape to Calpe, Larson focuses on terrorism, noting that, "the risks are real and the fear brought by terrorism in today's society should be taken very seriously." He says that his book has a message to readers regarding the reasons for terrorism.
"There may be reasons why there are terrorists who hate the U.S.," explains Larson. "They don't necessarily hate Americans themselves, but rather America's foreign policy. The American people become targets of their violence and anger against the U.S. government. I wanted to show the futility of war and violence in my book and show how violence can affect people, particularly the characters in my book."
Policy and politics will be a recurrent theme in Larson's upcoming novel, American Justice, due out in summer. The book focuses on a civilian army that tries to reclaim the streets from America's most notorious drug gangs.
When Larson is not busy writing fiction, he is involved with his technology business, Environment Water Solutions, Inc., a company he founded ten years ago, specializing in the design and installation of ozone water treatment systems. He also has several Internet stores which he operates. His passion, though, is flying.
"I try and devote as much time as possible to flying my aerobatics plane," says Larson. "I've been flying since 1966, and it's my favorite thing to do. Being up there is a spiritual experience for me. I also do aerobatics training programs and am working on writing a workbook for aerobatics and flight safety."
Though Larson has lived with his family in Bothell on and off for the past ten years, his wandering feet long to take him to South America and the Caribbean, where he would like to spend time living among the various cultures in that part of the world. He knows he will continue putting pen to paper in his efforts to tell his stories.
"Writing for me will always be a necessary way to communicate my ideas," explains Larson.

China is so different – or do the similarities prevail?
The first month of internship at Henkel Shanghai has passed like a second! What an amazing experience to be able to work on future-oriented topics like diversity and inclusion as well as social progress in one of the most future-oriented cities in the world! Shanghai is changing his face permanently – making it quite difficult to remember the correct way by memorizing for example certain shops or restaurants. Nevertheless the city makes it possible – with its very different faces – to feel at home right away. Living in the city center near People's Square means to have a wonderful park nearby, little streets with Chinese restaurants as well as huge stores. And also it means an incredible number of people! The streets are crowded at nearly every time of the day and anyone who has missed the Shuttle-bus in the morning once is able to make the interesting experience of using Shanghai's subway at peak times – with up to 40 degrees and 100% air moisture outside! It seems as if the city eats all day as food is everywhere around inShanghaiwith thousands of street food sellers and restaurants. It is really interesting and fascinating to get to know a culture by eating meals. Still I have my reservations regarding some – at least from a German point of view – uncommon dishes, but lots of the Chinese food tastes really good and my "chop-stick-skills" are getting better with every restaurant-visit.
The architecture of Shanghai for me is one of the aspects in which the big differences unified in this city are most obvious. To look at the amazing skyline of Pudong while staying at the Bund-riverside or enjoy the view on the city from one of the skyscrapers is an elusive experience – as well as walking through the small alleys of the old town getting aware of a totally different way of life. As there are so many things to discover I could write hundreds of blog posts regarding the city and my experiences here – but that's not the topic I actually wanted to concentrate on.
Having read and heard a lot of things concerning the Chinese culture and the differences to the German one I enteredChinawith various things in mind I would have to be aware of when getting in contact with people here. Certainly it is important to know about the characteristics of another culture to avoid certain mistakes which can easily cause lots of trouble. Nevertheless I experienced that concentrating on the differences fosters the creation of a very biased picture of people from another culture. Working in a team of very kind and open colleagues often makes me think "Ok, where are all the differences I have expected?" Don't get me wrong, I am neither saying that there are no differences nor I want to recommend that people should not inform themselves concerning another culture they will get in contact with. Anyway I assume that the concentration on differences involve the risk of not being open and oneself any more because of a biased suggestion regarding the people of the other culture. Where is the point in behaving differently from what one normally would behave like because of some stereotypes written in a book without having a clue if the counterpart one is communicating with would appreciate this behavior anyhow? What seems to be quite more important – and difficult compared to learning some behavioral codes by hard – is to try to understand the people around you: What do they feel? What is important for them? What can you read between the lines? If one succeeds in this I believe one can recognize that there are a lot more similarities between the cultures than assumed before! And concentrating on these similarities could help to build up relationships in which the cultural differences –which do exist – are not as important any more.
For me this was one of many insights gained in this internship in Shanghai already and I would really like to thank all the great colleagues and people here around me who make my stay here as special as it is!

Who is JT TEN WROS?
When I was a kid, my parents would get letters sent to them and a guy named JT TEN WROS. I had no idea who this JT guy was but I always figured it was a friend of my parents or perhaps the English name of a relative. It was always tricky growing up because I never knew anyone's name (you don't call relatives by their name, or even an Uncle Joe, you called them by their "rank," i.e. fifth uncle) so I figured it was just someone's name. While I don't think anyone has the last name of "Wros," you never know what immigration officers can write down as you pass through immigration, right?
It wasn't until later that I saw the guy appears on my statements, specifically my wife and my Vanguard statements! How'd he get there? Who is this JT guy and how the heck did he get on our account?

Exceptionally good specialist. Outstanding.
Dr. O'Malley sets the standard for Pediatric Ophthalmologists. He is thorough, very knowledgeable and the results we have seen for our child are amazing. If all we could receive the level of care that Dr. O'Malley provides for all health care matters life would be far more pleasant.
I had a very pleasant experience with my strabismus surgery earlier today. Dr O'Malley is very educated and has over 30 years experience. I felt in good hands. He is very caring and I felt very at ease. I would HIGHLY recommend him. Your kids will also enjoy his humor! I appreciated his work and manner so much my son will be seeing him for all eye his eye care! I am very thankful for what Dr.O'Malley has done for me.
I saw Dr. O'Malley as a child (unfortunately not early enough to correct my sight problem). Started taking my daughter at 3mo old (eye issue is hereditary). We have been going for 7 1/2 years & the intense eye therapy has helped improve her vision so that both eyes are almost equal.
We took our 7 month old son to him because he had a blocked tear duct. Even though, he was there to see our son but he was so warm and friendly to us and he made two very apprehensive first time parents a little more at ease. During his examination our son was fussing but Dr. O'Malley was so patient with him. After the examination he explained very clearly what he would do to clear the blockage. And when time came for the probing he used a little humor to relax a scared mum and then took our little guy for the procedure. And before we knew it our little guy was back not crying and screaming as we were expecting but actually quite calm.I would highly recommend Dr. O'Malley to anyone who has to show their child to an ophthalmologist.

BOSTON – At last, the Yankees have picked up a bullpen arm who manager Joe Girardi trusts. That would be David Phelps, the former member of the starting rotation, who hasn't pitched since July 4 due to a series of forearm strains.
The team activated Phelps on Saturday morning. To make room on the roster, they moved Derek Jeter to the 60-day disabled list.
Phelps posted a 5.01 ERA this season. But he impressed Girardi out of the bullpen in 2012. So he figures to pitch in high-leverage situations, in addition to Mariano Rivera, David Robertson and Shawn Kelley.

M&T Bank Corp. has launched a new online payroll-processing service for small-business customers, aimed specifically at employers with fewer than 100 workers.
M&T Online Payroll, offered through a partnership with Sure Payroll, a subsidiary of Rochester-based Paychex, is now available in all communities served by the bank.
The service can be up and running for an employer in as few as seven business days after the small business enrolls through a secure website in a process that takes as little as 30 minutes, the bank said.
The service offers a centralized online site for payroll information and processing, direct deposit and check printing, flexible payment types, an online employee self-service site for pay stubs and year-end W-2 and 1099 statements, payroll reports and accounting software integration and legal compliance information.
"Being a small-business owner is complicated enough – from finding your next client to managing expenses," said Janet M. Coletti, senior vice president of business banking.
"We're now offering the simple option of managing payroll processing right through your bank."

WWE Hall of Famer Jerry The King Lawler suffered a heart attack during Monday nights nationally televised Monday Night Raw show in Montreal, Canada.
Lawler, 62, collapsed at the announce table and was taken backstage where WWE medical staff administered CPR. He was then transported from the arena to a nearby medical facility. He was listed early Tuesday morning in stable condition.
The popular WWE commentator, who had wrestled in a tag-team match earlier in the evening, suffered some sort of seizure while calling a bout with co-announcer Michael Cole.
This is not part of the show, a somber Cole announced shortly before 10:30 p.m. EST.
Cole later reported that the Memphis icon was receiving oxygen and breathing on his own.
Lawler also had wrestled at a show in Aruba over the weekend.
This is a real-life situation, Cole said. There is going to be no further commentary on this broadcast.
Im shaken by the news of my friend Jerry Lawlers medical emergency in Montreal. Hands shaking. Prayers for the King. I feel helpless, Lawlers longtime ringside partner Jim Ross tweeted.
Lawler, who made his pro debut in 1970, has held 168 championships throughout his career more titles than any other current WWE wrestler,

E. G. Dimond's plea for the medical continuum in which the physician remains a student all his life brings to mind two teachings from earlier days.One of these was the remark of J. Chalmers Da Costa who once told a graduating class of the Jefferson Medical College where he taught surgery, "Each of us, however old, is still an undergraduate in the school of experience. When a man thinks he has graduated he becomes a public menace."The other is the excerpt from Tennyson's "Ulysses," which Arthur A. Stevens, a teacher of my student days, used for the title page of his A Manual of the Practice of Medicine:Yet all experience is an arch where-throughGleams that untravelled world, whose margin fadesForever and forever when I move.

The start of the school year is around the corner and families in the Central Coast are already stocking up on back-to-school supplies.
Back–to-school supplies come at a price. According to the national retail federal spending is up 5 percent this year. Families with k-12th grade children will spent around 670 dollars.
Parents in Santa Maria said they're doing their homework to find the best deals, and it all adds up.
To ease that burden McDonald's partnered up with non-profit groups around the community.
Marcos Salazar, supervisor of Central Coast McDonald's said "It's been a huge success the last two years."
Salazar said "This is something to create some kind of excitement for the kids."
The lines at Santa Maria started at 5:30 in the morning and wrapped around the building two times.
Lisa Ray with the Children's Resource Network, said "We were anticipating 200 families but it's probably closer to 400-500 families. We restocked our trailer twice today."

Interesting commentary
March 24, 2013
I took a long hiatus on reviewing editorials in the paper but have recently come back to read some interesting commentary on healthcare and the skyrocketing budget crisis....
It's a funny thing about tax rates, raising them does not necessarily raise revenue. The best way for the government to raise revenue is for the economy to grow. This is hampered by high tax rates. A simple, fair (everybody pays) and reasonable tax would do wonders for the country, but don't look for that from this President. He preaches class warfare, while he maintains tax breaks for his rich friends. Flat rate and no deductions or credits is the only truly fair tax.

You know if they had raised taxes to support the unprecedented spending after 9/11 we would not be in this mess. Conservatives would not support it then they will support it now. This jerk's solution for the rest of us to do with less, pay, benefits, services. Just for a few years.

'Second, government spending is cut, specifically to the three drivers of debt (healthcare spending, defense, and Social Security is roughly $2.4 trillion annually!) '
Social Security a driver of debt? Apparently Mr Bachman isn't aware of the SS deduction from his paycheck. Isn't he aware everyone pays into SS? It's unfortunate that the SS fund dollars have been added to their money pot without any thoughts as to how they will pay the people back the money they put into it. The SS mess was created by Washington and they've dug themselves such a deep hole they'll never get out. Instead, they will continue to live at their standard of living while those who really need the SS will live in poverty.

Adam, the current debt load and hunger of our Gov to spend and influence most people's daily lives in one way or another is nothing like the clinton days. One might also suggest that successes then be tied to balanced budget approaches, welfare reform and Reagan's approaches prior, but I'm sure you won't agree on Reagan. The current budget and healthcare law are going to add costs and debt. These aren't good for the economy. The base of people you can tax is dwindeling and we continue to spend on REDICULOUS things when we TRULY have no money to do so.

How can SS be a driver of debt? Al Gore assured us it was all in a lock box. Good enough for me. Must be something else driving debt.
Oh, and if any of you have a chance to view the SS deductions from employees and what the employer matches, you would be shocked. There is not that much and for the idiots in charge to declare a 2% tax holiday of that deduction was moronic at best. Now it is being portrayed as a tax increase. Our pols twist the numbers to suit themselves, both parties, and until we accept that we will continued to be manipulated and no solution will ever be attained.

The economy is not dead as the new jobs numbers are starting to show promise of improving. Consumer confidence is going up. I don't make these numbers up. Also, for those who attacked the comment on SS...tally all the money that you pay into SS in a year and multiply by about 35. The average retiree is pulling at least 2-3x what they put in or MORE! The gov't has to make up that difference thus that needs to be CUT! SS is not just for elderly. It is for disabled people too. Since the gov't has relaxed qualifications for being disabled, the number of people has rised exponentially. The SS was created in the 30s with 19 people paying in for every one pulling out. It is now 2:1. This math will not be sustainable. Tax hawks don't like any tax hike so I won't win here. I think that ALL people need to do more with less so that we can move toward a balanced budget...and by the way, I consider myself a Reagan Democrat (moderate economically, socially liberal).
0 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
And for those who don't want to cut SS, then I want permission to not pay in and invest my money elsewhere...because I'm not going to see it 40 years from now. The other option is to raise retirement age due to average life expectancy rising into the mid 80s...your choice.

Hacked sign in Virginia by underbiteman
Highway travel has enough complications— road rage, volatile gas prices, wintery conditions, and now the undead?
After directions were leaked online, hacked signs across the country have been warning of zombie attacks, and the latest threat took place this week in downstate Illinois. Indiana, Texas, and Virginia (at left) have already been hit, and road officials are none too pleased. The departments of transportation are widely publicizing the risks and fees associated, but the zombie threats just keep on coming.— Hilary Solan

Good teams should obliterate bad teams. That's the view from the outside, anywhere from the stands at MetLife Stadium to the Vegas strip.
On the inside, it's how Tom Coughlin put it last week when talking about the Miami Dolphins: "Respect all, fear none."
So the Giants' 20-17 victory over winless Miami today, which required a 25-yard touchdown pass from Eli Manning to Victor Cruz with 5:58 to play, looked like a disappointment from the outside and an indication this team is in trouble with arguably the toughest remaining schedule in the NFL to play.
But inside a locker room that was, by all indications, calm and business-like at halftime, it was another strong finish, regardless of the opponent's record.
"We bent but we didn't break," said Corey Webster, whose interception of Matt Moore on a fourth-and-27 for Miami sealed the game with 1:44 to play. "That shows the camaraderie of the locker room. Guys are not getting down on each other, guys aren't bickering, they just stay in the game and keep fighting.
"If we continue to do that, we can do something special here."
First of all, let's be clear about one thing: there was nothing "special" about this win. And if the Giants keep allowing teams to run the ball while failing to do so themselves, continue to drop passes and don't play better in the first half, they're not headed for anything "special" or – cough – Super. Not with the Patriots, 49ers, Saints, Packers, Eagles, Cowboys and Jets on their schedule.
As Brandon Jacobs said, the Giants should've made the Dolphins "believe they are what they are, that they're winless for a reason. So you have to hit them in the mouth, put points up early and make them say, 'Oh, here this goes again. Let's just get it over with.''
But here's the flip side the Giants were stressing after outscoring the Dolphins 10-0 in the fourth quarter: they're playing well late in games.
In their five victories, the Giants have outscored their opponents 49-14 in the fourth quarter.
"We're putting ourselves in that situation sometimes, which isn't good," Mathias Kiwanuka, who was a force late with 1½ sacks and a few pressures, said of the need for comebacks. "But it's a valuable experience because, at some point down the line, there's going to be a point where we're put in that situation or we're not going to be able to rely on just getting there."
Early on, it certainly looked like the Giants thought they'd easily find their way to a victory.
Six dropped passes (two for Hakeem Nicks, two for Jake Ballard and one for Jacobs and Mario Manningham), more sloppy open-field tackling on runs of 36 and 28 yards by Reggie Bush (who now has two 100-yard games in his career – both against the Giants) and other mistakes allowed Miami to take a 14-3 lead early in the second quarter.
The Dolphins' second touchdown was a 1-yard bootleg run by Moore, who ran for 31 yards and threw for only 138. The Giants hadn't seen such a play on film but knew it was a possibility.
"Under that circumstance," Coughlin said of the fourth-and-goal play after the Giants perhaps thought they had forced a field goal, "we just didn't get that communicated."
Finally, though, the entire team began to snap out of it. The play that helped spark the comeback was an 11-yard out from Manning to Cruz on a third-and-8 late in the second quarter. It was made possible by an outstanding blitz pickup by Ahmad Bradshaw.
Ten plays later, on a third-and-1 from the 7, Manning laid a perfect fade ball past rookie corner Jimmy Wilson for Manningham's first touchdown of the season.
"The safeties blitzed and I was working my release," Manningham said, "and Eli put the ball in a perfect spot."
Early in the fourth quarter, the Dolphins had a 26-yard catch by Brandon Marshall erased by an extremely questionable offensive pass-interference call that made it second-and-20. The Giants took over.
Cruz was featured on the cover of the gameday program and the highlight film in the team meeting on Saturday featured salsa music, so he had a feeling he'd make another big play. On third-and-12, he ran a great route inside former Giant Will Allen, who made a horrible tackle attempt that helped spin Cruz into the end zone.
"I know better than that," Allen said.
And the Giants know better than to make a game like that close. But they did. To their credit, at least they finished well again.
"That's what good teams do," Osi Umenyiora said. "When it's time to close out a team you have to close them out."
