Lithograph from a drawing by John Mix Stanley1
Isaac Stevens, in the report on his exploration of possible routes for a railroad from the Mississipi to the Pacific, wrote of the Souris, or Mouse, River:
High ridges divide the plateau bordering the stream from that extending into the prairie, with coulées intersecting it and opening into the river on the one side, gradually growing imperceptible as they make into the prairie on the other. The general course of the river, and of its principal branch, the Riviere des Lacs, is nearly parallel to that of the Missouri, for the distance we followed it, of eighty-seven and a half miles to its source,2 and separated from that river by the Plateau du Missouri, varying from thirty-five to fifty-five miles in width. Many of the coulées reach to the edge of the Missouri plateau; and in the examination for a good passage for the wagon train, secluded spots were found where beetling crag and winding stream, venerable trees and greenest sward combined in scenes of much picturesque beauty.
Its valley is from half a mile to a mile wide, about two hundred feet below the prairie level, and is well wooded with maple, oak, ash, and elm. The deep coulées run back from it for fifteen or twenty miles, and must be avoided by keeping far from the river itself. They usually contain a stream of good water, and sufficient timber on the banks for camping purposes. One of the bluffs of the cateau, twenty miles from the Mouse river, was found by Mr. Moffett to be seven hundred and two feet above its level, and a hill seven miles from camp rose to two hundred and fifty-six feet.3
The Stevens expedition, incidentally, traveled by wagon train: "Our experience thus far had shown how well adapted ox-trains were to transportation."
1. Isaac I. Stevens, Reports of Explorations and Surveys to Ascertain the Most Practicable and Economical Route for a Railroad from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean (1853–55), Vol. XII, Book I, Plate 15.
2. Evidently they didn't quite reach the Souris's source. It begins a short distance west of Carnduff, Saskatchewan, about 10 miles (17 km) north of the U.S.-Canada border. The Riviere des Lacs originates 54 miles (87 km) above the border (49° North), west of Carlyle, Sasketchewan, 144 miles (232 km) from the Souris's nearest approach to the Missouri River.
3. Stevens, p. 84.

The red-haired infant rests on his mother's chest, his forehead tucked in the recess of her neck. The hospital room is quiet. With the lights off, only the gray morning glow from the northerly window illuminates the sleeping infant, but this suffices to reveal his head bobbing with the beat of his rapid breathing. He was born several months prematurely, and this is his third admission to our pediatric hospital. I am the attending physician, meeting him for the first time. As soon as my stethoscope touches his chest, my ears are filled with the din of crackles and wheezes. The hair around his forehead is damp with sweat, and the contours of his face are thin and sharply etched. Finishing my examination, I step back and sit in a nearby chair. His mother's eyes dart nervously from her son to me; she regards me warily. "I know what you're thinking," she says. "You think he needs that operation, but he has nearly died so many times. I don't want it."

Negligible weight loss for the last while, but in the last month
- pants are getting looser
- eyelids are less droopy (this started at the same time all my thyroid problems started; this seems like a GREAT sign!)
- whole face seems to be slightly less puffy
- Cashier at Trader Joe's today insisted I must play some kind of sport - soccer, tennis, something - b/c I look so darn athletic. (I haven't exercised more than 10 times in the last six years, because of fatigue).

Police have arrested a motorcyclist who eluded them last summer after a high-speed chase through a bank parking lot and a walking trail, officials said.
Edwin A. Santodomingo-Rosado was identified by an anonymous tipster on Aug. 15, 2012, as the man wearing prescription glasses who fled when police tried to pull him over at East 4th and Hobart streets at about
5:15 p.m. July 31, because the blue dirt bike he was operating was unregistered, officials said.
Santodomingo-Rosado drove through several stop signs, almost hitting an occupied vehicle at East 3rd and Hobart streets, then drove onto the parking lot of the PNC Bank at Hayes and Evans streets and down a flight of stairs and headed east on the South Bethlehem Greenway, almost striking four pedestrians, who had to jump out the way to avoid being hit, officials said.
Santodomingo-Rosado was last seen entering the Lynfield housing development, officials said.
After getting the tip, police obtained a photo of Santodomingo-Rosado through JNET, the state's criminal justice portal, as well as information that he was required to wear glasses to drive, officials said.
Santodomingo-Rosado, 22, of 1832 Lynfield Drive, Bethlehem, was arraigned Thursday on charges of fleeing and eluding police, reckless endangerment, ignoring stop signs, driving on the sidewalk, driving an unregistered vehicle, driving without insurance and driving without a valid license and committed to the Northampton County Prison on $7,500 bail, according to court documents.
A preliminary hearing is set for 10 a.m. Feb. 27.

misshowie67 , from Hamilton, New Zealand, has been a Family Tree Circles member since Jan 2013.
I have been looking at Annie Unwin(Reid) and noticed Ann Unwin with a death date of 1906. I also found a marriage of Annie Unwin in Kaiapoi in 1886 in Papers Past.
Star , Issue 5491, 7 August 1886, Page 3
Unwin Vette.-- August 5, at St Bartholomew's Church, Kaiapoi, by the Rev J. W. Stack, Annie Unwin to John Henry Frederick Vette, Ohoka.
What do you think?
I haven't found a death date for Annie Vette though.
Google "Everything Unwin" - they are a set of blogs about the Unwins, that I have written. Annie Unwin married Henry Vette (thats what my Grandfather called him) after Thomas died. I don't know why she was registered in deaths as Unwin, but they are definitely the same person. Ohoka is just out of Kaiapoi. Perhaps she was buried in the Anglican cemetery with her first husband, and the three dead children of hers that were there also; and if that were the case, then perhaps that is why they registered her death as Unwin. Quite an anomaly that I pondered over for some time.
Thanks for confirming that and your blogs have been a great help. If I find anything useful I'll let you know.
My husband is 3rd cousin to your father.

Natural 100% Oats & Whey
Optimum Nutrition
Oats and Whey are fundamental elements of an athlete's diet. Naturally low in sugar, Oats supply slow-burning complex carbohydrates and hunger-filling dietary fiber. Whey proteins are readily digested and provide considerable amounts of essential amino acids (EAAs) especially the three branched chain amino acids (BCAAs). Our Natural 100% Oats & Whey combines the benefits of these nutritional powerhouses in a smooth, drinkable shake that's quick to prepare and equally easy to clean up after. Each serving packs in 24 grams of all-whey protein and as much fiber as a big bowl of oatmeal. Better yet, it tastes great, and it goes down easy. As the name suggests, Natural 100% Oats & Whey is free of artificial flavors, sweeteners, and synthetic colors. So naturally, it's great for breakfast, after workouts, and any time that you're looking for an on-the-go meal.
Whey protein isolate, whey protein concentrate, honey powder, evaporated cane juice powder, whole oat flour, oat fiber, natural flavor, salt, cellulose gum, lecithin, guar gum.Contains milk and soy (lecithin) ingredients.
Manufacturer's Directions
Natural 100% Oats & Whey is INSTANTIZED, so it always mixes up easily. Simply add 1 heaping scoop of Natural 100% Oats & Whey to a blender, shaker cup, or glass filled with 6-8 ounces of cold water or milk. Then blend, shake, or stir for 20-30 seconds or until powder is dissolved.
Delightful! Best tasting protein drink Ive tried. Vanilla works best in everything, even water based drinks Ive made; almond, cashew, or coconut milk better still.
Im only writing a bad review because I want it all to myself!!
I am a bodybuilder so I eat a ton of food but I do not do well with protein shakes and weight gainers. Any clumps go down my throat and I want to get sick immediately... this protein is NO clump greatness. I received it at work and I am dieting right now so I did not have milk to mix it with and I never have time for a blender :) so I put one scoop in 10 oz of water and wow is it delicious! I have already had two shakes today with another going down before bed! Don't hesitate to try it! You won't regret it!
This is simply the best product out there. It is a high quality whey protein that is FINALLY without any artificial sweeteners. It tastes great, mixes well, and is made with natural ingredients.
I did a lot of reseach which lead me to this All Natural product. It's AWESOME!!! It's nothing like the ones I've had to choke down in the past.
I also tried the Chocolate version, but this is the best!!! I've even got a few others to buy it after they tried mine. I wish it came in the 5 lb, but 3's good.
It would be nice for them to have a place to share recipes. I mix it in a blender with one scoop and about 6-9 ice cubes. So far, Apple juice and pears sliced up. Bananas with strawberries or blueberries or a tablespoon of peanut butter with 1% milk, Peanut butter and cocoa, Cocoa and banana or blueberries. Anything's possible with the vanilla. I am still working on perfecting a creamsicle :)

Re: other simple kitchen equipment...is that a rice paddle you use to stir ingredients in a skillet? It's an interesting shape...do you remember where you got it?
Vinaigrette Whisk
Thanks to the research efforts of DTV viewer Patricia Dorazio from New York, we've found a store that sells that little curved vinaigrette whisk I frequently use on the show. I purchased this whisk years ago at a home outlet store and have not seen one since. It is the kitchen tool most people inquire about. The web address for this store is www.fantes.com. Thank you Patricia!
I just purchased one of those whisks today. It is "The Joy of Cooking" line and I bought it at a local department store. It's angled and has a nicely shaped handle. I checked Fantes and their shipping fee is $15. My whisk was $5.49!
Hi Dotty, My electric stove is very old and the round plates are the actual burners. They heat very quickly, but take a lot of time to cool down, so you may notice me shifting pots around the burners when I'm cooking. My wish is to get a gas stove one day! Thanks so much for watching and writing, take care. Toni
I am curious about the raised round circles on your stove. Are these attached to the stove or is this something you put on top of the cooking surface? What is their purpose? I love your show.

This is the final post in my series on victimization. The victimization syndrome can be compared to a virus that has infected not only clients, but our profession as well. Transformational change intensifies existing victimization and brings any latent tendencies to the surface. No one—advocates, agents, targets, or sponsors—is immune from its destructive power. In this post, I review some perspectives I've found helpful with clients, other practitioners, and myself as we all contend with our own vulnerability to victimization.

Serving as a professional change facilitator is challenging under any circumstances but this is especially true when attending to people in the midst of deeply emotional, or cathartic, breakthroughs. The intense struggle associated with trying to hold on to the status quo, the anxiety of letting go, and then the difficulties of opening up to new possibilities generates extremely profound emotions that we must be prepared to recognize and respond to properly.
In this post, I include an extensive list of ways we can help others in their emotional journeys.

This series addresses ethical ploys—noble ruses that help people handle issues or information they wouldn't otherwise see, understand, or consider relevant. In this post, I name five things to remember when using an ethical ploy.

It's important to be able to reframe a person's mindset during a change initiative to shift how he or she sees and interprets certain things. In this post, I describe in detail two key elements in reframing: frame of reference and priorities, and describe how to apply each.

ATI Radeon 8500 128MB ReviewBosco -
Test setup:
I will be using the Catalyst 2.2 driver for the ATI. So let's get started and see how it does.
Ouch the ATI didn't fair to well. It seemed like the higher the resolutions the better results it was getting over the 4600Ti. There is quite a clock speed difference between the Two cards, the 4600TI has a GPU clock or 300 MHz and 650 MHz memory clock well above 275 MHz that this 8500 has on its GPU and memory. This is for sure going to have an affect on performance.
Comanche 4
Faired a little better here but not much.:/
That is not good at all but clock speeds come into play here I think. I didn't have problems with drivers at all so it appears ATI finally is addressing that problem.
For the flagship card I dunno, I was not impressed at all. For the price of the card I thought it would have been better. One thing that I do have to stress is that the clock speeds are a lot higher on the TI card then the ATI. I have to give ATI credit though the picture quality was very good but it lacks performance. I don't see this card much of a challenge to the 4600TI at all. If you are looking for a decent card you could try this one but you may want to look at a 4200 or 4400TI if a 4600TI is to expensive. The price for this card being $269 I think is a little much for the performance that you get in return.

I know that the VCDL is about as active in promoting gun rights as you could ever ask for. I also know that Maryland has a Citizens Defense League as well, but is it active? I checked their website and didn't see much activity. :confused:

Affirmed's Daughter Saved from Slaughter
Beverly Dee, Bright Futures Farm
Singing Breeze was rescued from the Sugarcreek Livestock Auction on 10/2/09. Sent thin and without papers, if Rachael Paris hadn't stopped to look at her, she would be on her way to Canada right now with a horrid death iminent. She's got a severe crack in one hoof, and is somewhat lame on that foot right now. I was able to successfully identify her through photos and a partial tattoo I sent to the Jockey Club on Friday.
Singing Breeze (Affirmed - Middle Course by Storm Bird)
1994 dark brown Thoroughbred mare. Star, stripe, snip, RH coronet, LF ankle.

Firefighters extinguished a house fire at the corner of Texas Street and Phoenix Avenue early Tuesday morning.
The family told Action 7 News that everyone got out of the house OK after the neighbor's dog woke and alerted them to the fire.
"The smoke detectors were working inside this home.It may have saved the lives of every one inside. There was so much smoke coming from the house this morning that the neighbors' dog actually woke the family up inside (the burning) home. They thought their house was on fire," Deputy Fire Chief Vic Padilla said.
"He started howling, we didn't know what was going on," said the neighbor of his dog.
The family doesn't know how the fire started.
The home is just north of Menaul Boulevard.
A power line fell in the home's backyard, which made the fire fight a little more difficult.

Class 5A-4A
Name: Dalton Brooks.
School: Tascosa.
Position: Quarterback.
Performance: The junior threw two touchdowns and ran for two more in a 45-35 loss to Odessa High. Brooks had a hand in three touchdowns in the third quarter to bring Tascosa within striking distance before the Bronchos pulled away. Brooks rushed for 102 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries and was 24-of-31 passing for 243 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions.
Comment: "Tascosa did a good job in the second half. My hats off to Coach Parker and his team. The old 2-5A teams never go belly up," Odessa High coach Ron King said. "And then their quarterback (Dalton Brooks) was like catching a long-tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs."
Class 3A-2A
Name: Michael Matthews.
School: Bushland.
Positions: Running back-safety.
Performance: Matthews carried only three times for 12 yards but scored the Falcons' first TD on a 9-yard run in a 39-21 win against Stratford. He caught just one pass, but it went for a 27-yard TD on a superb catch in the corner of the end zone with a defender all over him. On defense, he was in on seven tackles, including two solos, intercepted two passes, including returning one 27 yards for a touchdown, and had two pass breakups.
Comment: ''Michael played some on the varsity two years ago as a freshman but was injured and didn't play last season,'' Bushland head coach David Flowers said. ''After not playing last year, he wanted to come back out for football, and we are glad he did. He is an explosive player on both sides of the ball and is capable of making big plays in the running game and the passing game, as well as on defense.''
Class 1A
Name: Richard Watler.
School: Wheeler.
Positions: Running back-middle linebacker.
Performance: The Mustangs improved to 4-0 with a solid 42-28 road win at White Deer, and Watler had an impressive night. He carried 15 times for 157 yards and scored on an 8-yard run in the second quarter to put his team up 21-14. On defense, he was just as impressive with 12 tackles, including four solos.
Comment: "Richard has started all three years that I've been at Wheeler, and he continues to get better,'' Wheeler head coach Brandon Smith said. ''He never comes out of a game. He plays every down on offense, defense and special teams. Richard has excellent strength that enables him to get tough yards running the ball, and on defense has the ability to get to the ball and make plays. The thing that impresses is how hard he works to improve in every phase of the game.''
Name: Keenan Lott.
School: Lefors.
Positions: Quarterback-defensive back.
Performance: Lott accounted for 487 of the Pirates' 508 yards of offense in a 76-28 win against Holy Cross. He completed 10-of-15 passes for 313 yards and nine touchdowns. In addition, he rushed nine times for 184 yards and scored on runs of 45 and 11 yards. Two of his TD passes were of 60 yards, while two others went for 44 and 45 yards.
Comment: ''We put a lot of responsibility on Keenan, and he does a great job running our offense,'' Lefors head coach Joey Czubinski said. ''He is an accurate passer, and when he is on, our games can become kind of a track meet. When he takes off and runs, our other kids love to block for him and try to spring him for the big gainer. Keenan has been a fun player to coach because he handles things well. He likes being in charge on the field and is an excellent leader for the team.''

Kevin Durant was named a starter to the Western Conference All-Star team Thursday night as the NBA announced the starters live on TNT.
Durant was the second-leading vote-getter in the West behind Kobe Bryant.
KD is the league's current leading scorer and reigning scoring champ and is the second youngest starter behind Derrick Rose (who is just six days younger). At just 22, Durant is probably just now starting a very, very long run as an All-Star starter. A lot of people wondered that if in small-town Oklahoma City that he'd gain the national recognition needed to become a big-name star, but evidently that wasn't a problem.
This is something we need to get used to, but it's really, really cool that our guy is going to be starting on the big stage. Well deserved, KD.

Lois V. Sieben, 96, of Geneseo, died Thursday, Nov. 29, 2012, at her home. Memorial services will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 27, 2013, at the First Congregational Church, Geneseo. Cremation rites have been accorded. Memorials may be made to First Congregational Church, Geneseo or Good Samaritan Village, Geneseo.
She was born on April 10, 1916, in Colman, S.D., the daughter of the Rev. Guy and Clara (Williamson) Wilkinson. The family later moved from Mitchell, S.D. to Wisconsin where her father held pastorates in various towns. She graduated from Edgerton High School, Wisconsin. She was given an organ scholarship at auditions at Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa, and where she majored in organ (gave three major recitals) and minored in piano. She received her degree in music performance.
On June 20, 1949, she married Dale Sieben, her college sweetheart, in Madison, Wis. Her father escorted her down the aisle and then performed the marriage ritual, assisted by the minister of the church where she had been organist and choir director. Through many years, she was a church organist in Wisconsin, New Jersey and Illinois — sometimes serving also as choir director. Many weddings and funerals were included in the playing and much accompanying. Also, through many years she taught piano and organ. Her students were always her "kids" and numbered in the hundreds.
After one and a half years at the home office of an electrical engineering firm in Milwaukee, Dale's company sent him to their New York City office. The family lived in New Jersey. Later, Dale decided to return to the family farm in Geneseo where he became a happy and successful farmer as well as a leader in town activities. Lois was active in town and church activities — especially with the children — a member of the original Henry County Association for the Crippled, as it was called then, and was head of the Geneseo Foster Parents group, who, in lieu of sending local Christmas greetings, were able to support up to seven needy children for many years.
She was a P.E.O. and Music Club member and has been president of both groups. She also enjoyed several bridge groups through the years and felt blessed to have many friends. She was an inactive member of the Hammond-Henry Hospital Auxiliary. She was a charter member and served actively for 40 years.
Survivors include her son and spouse, Daniel and Kay of California; granddaughter and spouse, Michelle and Todd Kennedy; great grandchildren, Silas and Willa of Connecticut; granddaughter and spouse, Robin and Dave Daines of Paris, France; an honorary daughter, Joyce Eng Berg (Stephen) and their daughter, Stephanie; and there are many very dear and close friends who, through the years, became family to her. She was preceded in death by her husband, Dale and infant son, Leonard Edwin.

The Saint of Staten Island
Coping with Her Own Loss, Elissa Montanti Found a Cause Worth Her Passion: Helping War-Wounded Kids
Since 1996 Montanti, 49, has helped 45 children, most of whom have lost limbs in war zones, by personally arranging visas and shepherding them to the U.S., where she hosts them in a three-bedroom Staten Island facility provided by New York City's Catholic archdiocese. With help from one part-time volunteer, she arranges for free surgery, treatment and prostheses (paid for by the Shriners). Montanti's nonprofit group, Global Medical Relief Fund (GMRF), subsists on donations from the Richmond County Savings Foundation and others who know her work. Her reputation for saving kids eclipses a shoestring annual budget of $150,000. "Elissa has helped every child I've asked her to help," says Maj. Glenn Rubalcava of the U.S. Military's Humanitarian Operations Center, which deals with Iraq's civilian casualties. "She always has a game plan."
She also has a human touch. "I want to keep it as personal as I can—one kid at a time," says Montanti, who never looks after more than four kids at once. That's made all the difference for Roosel Malallah, 7, an Iraqi girl born unable to stand or walk—a birth defect linked to Saddam Hussein's chemical weapons program. After learning of her through the U.S. military, Montanti flew Roosel and her mother, Samira, 52, to Staten Island and arranged for her care. Says Samira: "I didn't believe this could happen. She has a deep love for children."
It's a role that Montanti fell into by accident. The New York City native was in her 20s when the deaths of her mother and grandmother within a short span left her stricken with grief. To deal with her loss she became involved in efforts to aid victims of Bosnia's civil war. She read a letter from Kenan Malkic, a then 15-year-old boy who had lost all of his limbs to a landmine. Moved, Montanti raised funds to bring Malkic to the U.S. to be fitted with prostheses. "Something happened," she says of her activism. "It's like a white light and a voice."
Soon she was traveling to Bosnia, where Sarajevo hotel manager Asko Glusak, now 27, helped her bypass red tape to find needy kids. "We connected because she cared about my people," he says. The pair wed in 2000, and Montanti's efforts have spread to Iraq and other countries. "There are not a lot of people like her," says Malkic, 22, who now attends the College of Staten Island and lives with Montanti and Glusak. "She made feel me whole."
Montanti works tirelessly to give that feeling to other kids, treating them to shopping trips and sightseeing as well as overseeing their care. "She helps us forget what we come from," says Roosel. The point, says Montanti, is to remind children with shattered bodies that their lives are precious. "Some people say, 'Why don't you help your own?'" she says. "They are our own. We're all in this world together."

Why the Metal Community Is Fighting for Animal Rights
By Kim Kelly, Contributor[dek class="right"]While many humans judge us after one look, animals never do. They're not racist, sexist or hateful. I think that's a very appealing quality to someone who has perhaps been rejected or treated as… more »

I polled several people, some allegedly experts in something, including my beautiful wife and Wonder Rex, and all of us agreed that the first thing that someone better have said in that closed-door meeting was either, "You guys need to shower before we have this meeting," or "We need to make some $#%^&^%$!@ bunnies! That is the $#%@*&^ problem!"
But I am not going to panic. For one, panicking is a waste of time. Besides, once I was done yelling and throwing things at Bill Walton on television -- for even when he is right he let's you know he's right again -- I checked the schedule and it turns out we have more games. So the world remains round, and Voldemort is still dead, and our main problem continues to be making easy, point-blank, crippled bunnies
We can wrangle the issue of what offense we should run until the cows come home to the Farm, but system be damned, I have a hard time caring when what we are running results in a lot of bunnies and we just keep lobbing holy hand grenades. It is really hard to win when you shoot 26.7 percent for 40 minutes on the road, which is what we did in the second half of the USC game and the first half of the UCLA game.
Chasson Randle needs to make his bunnies. He blew (deliberate understatement) a lemming migration of bunnies against USC, and then started doing the same thing against UCLA. Our law firm of Shiller & Platz have surmised for several broadcasts that Chasson has struggled with the mental aspect of the game since his unfortunate foul at the end of the Minnesota game. I bet they are right, though I don't really know. Axioms about mental toughness and competitiveness are easy, but those types of situations can be brutal on earnest young men. And if the initial infection hits the psychological bloodstream (as it might have with Chasson), the secondary infections – spin this one on out yourselves. We won't even discuss the interim, except to say that his missed bunnies at USC were amongst the worst shots ever missed by a very good player in the history of the world. Thankfully, Chasson snapped out of it late in the UCLA game and found brain-dead attack mode, and closed with nine quick points on threes, frees and a sweet left-handed finish. In fact, he had two very nice off-hand finishes in traffic in the second half. Hopefully, the fog stays lifted.
Contrastingly, against USC, Aaron Bright did some good things. Just not enough of them. Maybe I am starting to be old school, but Aaron needs to stop being beaten to his left by the USC guards. Pressure defense is terrific, except when it results in too many Blue Bayou moments by guys that frankly couldn't scrape together two decent D-1 schollie offers. It is not just Aaron either. Aaron does get a lot of credit though for shouldering a big offensive burden against USC, for being forced to take a lot of late-clock shots in that game, and for coming away with 12 points, five assists and zero turnovers. He was also excellent getting fouled in that game, initiating some awkward contact so he could get to the line.
Robbie Lemons and Gabe Harris have both had their moments this season. And Christian Sanders, where have you gone? But our lack of consistent "whole package" play off the bench or by the starters or by our rotating wheel of third guard really reared its head in L.A. We can all say what we want about Coach Dawkins, but effort alone right now is not going to keep you in the starting lineup. So Andy Brown goes off for 17 against USC and he gets the off-guard start against UCLA because he earned it. But then he goes only 1-of-8, including missing some bunnies, and we are right back where we started with this fifth starter spot. Who wants it?
Final Thought: Nothing cures like home games. And historically, when things aren't going well, few teams have provided a nice home-cooked panacea like the Cougars of Wazzou. Woohoo.
Final Final Thought: In lieu of another negative, I was happy to see that once again John Gage stepped up and earned a starting spot and then did something with it. John averaged 9 and 4.5 over the weekend, so his slump is busted, and with Brock Motum coming to town, look for him to remain in the starting lineup.
Final Final Final Thought: Speaking of slump-busting, we shot 42 percent from deep in L.A., which is conservatively speaking, a huge improvement. Now if we could only shoot that well inside the paint, we would be on to something. Make the bunnies and away we go.
Seriously the Last Thought: I hope Maples isn't a morgue on Wednesday night. This is a big game for us. I hope the fossils remember where they put their season tickets!

Hot off the presses is our new review on the Motorola DROID X! Check it out now.
Motorola DROID X Specifications | Review
Apple iPhone 4 Specifications | Review

wow that is a great shot made by the DROID X marketing team...kudos to that stab at the crapple device and the guts to state plain and bold that droid is better.
13. jdoc611 (Posts: 17; Member since: 17 Mar 2010)
I would not say great shot... That is the pansy way of marketing. Why dont you be creative and think outside the box. Attacking another product shows a huge lack of creativity.
15. theman414 (Posts: 132; Member since: 08 Jun 2009)
This is a great ad on Verizon and Motorola's part. I love it, but Verizon will not gain any sales from the iphone off of this, nor with the Droid X come close to iphone sales. As for Motorola, they better hope Verizon never gets the iphone because they will be laying people off!
23. PhoneUser (Posts: 78; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
@JDOC611 STFU LOL and suing other company cause they made something that resembles a UI is not a pansy way of trying to eliminate the competition?
25. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
That has been Verizon's m.o. for a while now....
31. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
can you uhh.. i dunno.. point to an article that shows VZW trying to sue one of the other major companies because of similar features? if not.. then STFU :) I think its a great shot across the bow. Only panzy liberal iphone lovers would get offended by it. Business is cut throat. You take every advantage you can get, because your competition is doing it to you. Ol Jobs left himself wide open with the way hes been acting about the situation. It would be stupid if noone took advantage of that fact. He sure would if it was the opposite.
34. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
if those suits area accurate, then they are actually stimulating competition/innovation. No one will invent anything if they know they're technology will be stolen by some other company. If we didn't have patents, then we'd be like China with all the fake models and knock offs. But yeah, I think that was a nice shot though. I just hope Motorola tries to be a little more creative this time with their advertising and not rely on their "iDon't have a physical keyboard" stuff. If they do that again, then they are establishing that iPhone is the phone to beat.
37. Cali_E (Posts: 196; Member since: 24 Sep 2008)
does anyone remember the whole thing with that stupid little tickle me elmo toy that blew up like crazy? the company that made them couldnt even keep up with the demands for it. that stupid little fucking toy was ridiculous and people were going absolutly crazy, fighting over it and shit? thats what the iphone reminds me of...lol
45. ILOVEIPHONE25 (unregistered)
this is kind of childish, in matter of fact. I bet they wont sell 100,000 phones..haha..
52. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
I don't really remember that toy. But do you know what Android reminds me of? It reminds me of the Voyager, the Dare, the Blackberry Storm, the Instinct, the palm Pre, etc etc etc. Everyone who had those phones were basically saying the same thing as you. The iPhone sucks, outdated, boring, fanboys, hype, nothing new, icrap, not as good as everyone thinks it is, etc etc etc. People are so sprung on trying to make the newest phone better than the iPhone. I mean you compared the iPhone to a "stupid little fucking toy" that "was ridiculous." What kind of an understatement is that? I'm considering getting an X, but you're delusional if you really think the iphone is crappy and that bad.
57. plyfulgentleman (Posts: 43; Member since: 17 Jul 2008)
Ahhh sori EN..voyager, dare, instinct ARE NOT SMART PHONES! While the storm and the pre were smart phones in the same line as iphone. I will agree that the storm and pre had innovative design flaws like apple is experiencing now, but to compare the voyager, dare, instinct is not even close. These devices I just mentioned resembling close to what a smart phone has is html internet and resistive touch screen. Other wise doesn't even compare as such. Just thot u should know. But as far as this iphone 4 is concerned we can say that apple has its first FUBAR! Just like BB w/ the storm, palm with the. Centro series and most if not all windows phones. I can foresee another iphone 5 in the horizon alredy, perhaps in 8-10 months from now. Heck apple and all their techies are back @ the drawing board hatching up the next gen phone. Believe it or not the apple fan club will see the light day and that bulb will go off in the distant future. Just like the cyclical theory everything goes round and round...its just googles turn now...while its hard for some people to accept that its a fact of life. By the way aesthetics only goes a certain amount of time... the saga continues...next comment...
58. *HOVA* (Posts: 564; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
Well when the original iPhone came out it wasn't considered a smart phone either. That's when the phones he was comparing it too came out so his comment is quite relevant.

you got -15 comments, this website is nothing but google fagboys.
64. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
when a competitor makes a product with a weakness, it is a smart move to bash it anyway they can. and i think they did a great job handling it.
69. cc16177 (Posts: 312; Member since: 09 May 2010)
My uncle actually invented the tickle me elmo haha, we all got them for Xmas that year...

Sorry the lack of a working product shows a lack of creativity you moron....Pointing it out is only helping customer choose corectly! Jdoc611 -1
71. tuminatr (Posts: 773; Member since: 23 Feb 2009)
I bet they will sell that many launch day, and you probably wont need to sue motorola because they make a phone that you need to hold a certain way to make a call
72. 4nak1n (Posts: 4; Member since: 18 Apr 2010)
We're fanboys of freedom, dude =]
75. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
They are not pointing it out to help customers choose correctly. They are doing so to boost their sales! You need to understand that. Profit is the only driving force in this game. @plyfulgentleman You missed my whole point completely. It doesn't matter whether or not those phones were smartphones or not. I was trying to point out that people were saying the same exact things forever regardless of what phone they had and how much their phone sucked/didn't suck.
76. plyfulgentleman (Posts: 43; Member since: 17 Jul 2008)
Hey smart ass (referring to iloveiphone25)... I'm just stating a fact something that has blinded and keeps you in denial from the fact that Android OS is steadily taking over. Market share is exponentially growing YOY and is reaching the iphone status in the shortest amount of time. Yes I'm only speaking in terms of US market...Wait till this year ends! I just hope and pray that google keepss up the good work and gets more innovative...I actually have a blackberry but I will be getting that droid x tho...
78. Cali_E (Posts: 196; Member since: 24 Sep 2008)
cc16177- dude that made that day, then u of all people know what im talking about. i actually saw a fist fight break out in walmart around christmas time over who got the last one.
79. Cali_E (Posts: 196; Member since: 24 Sep 2008)
honestly E.N. you're a faggot bro, get the fuck off my nuts. I was reffering to the fact that people buy into fads and don't even know what they are buying, or check to see if there is anything better out there, which when it comes down to it, android is better than iphone o.s. if you know what you're doing. My best friend is a little iphone fanboy, and when he saw just a few of the things i've done to my droid, he was like "Fuck you dude, you were right. i want one of those" iPhones are good for for the idiots that want the smartphones and apps, but dont know how to use anything else, or are too lazy to do a little reading. But ya. seriously bro, get off my nuts. fuck off
80. becazican (unregistered)
iloveiphone25, you keep on calling everyone fag or gay , i am wondering you are either 10 years old or have repressed tendencies for being homosexual, which is it? your comments are always rude and childish.
81. becazican (unregistered)
cali_e , another dimwit heard from, calling someone a faggot bro and to get the fuck off your nuts, you most likely couldnt get anyone to touch your nuts.
84. Russki (Posts: 45; Member since: 26 Dec 2009)
lol really? cuz didnt bestbuy just stop accepting pre-orders for this phone after like 5 days. Do u understand what the ramifications of that are? It means that 2 million X's have been preordered already fool go play with ur crapple, oh and btw - ur holding it wrong
85. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
What did you show your friend? Tell me a few of the awesome things you've done on your Droid. It would help if you explained instead of just saying Android is the best or whatever. I need concrete details and not just talk. My sister has a Droid and she's right next to me and I don't see this amazingness that you're talking about. She says she loves her phone but if the iPhone ever came to Verizon she would drop her Droid in a second. The widgets are nice and the notification system is amazing but what else am I missing!
86. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
7 customizable homescreens. ability to download any app i want. free tethering without being rooted. not one droid looks the same. tell me what makes an iphone so godly!
87. Cali_E (Posts: 196; Member since: 24 Sep 2008)
Dude if u maybe read up about it instead of being a little douche bag, u could find out for urself what android could do in terms of what u want ur phone to do, being open source, u can load ANY APP made by ANYONE. Not just what apple approves. All I did was a little research, and I've learned how to load custom themes and roms of my choice. For exapmle, I am and have been running froyo (android 2.2) on my phone before they even released it on the g1. Mind u it is not officially realesed to the droid yet. Because my phone is rooted, I get free wifi teather, I have my processor over clocked to 1.25mhz (faster than any stock smartphone out there even ipad) and I can minipulate my proccessor speed however I want. And these are just a couple things. And then there's the obvious stock things like multitasking which every REAL smartphone has been able to do since around 2005. Widgets is another cool thing that u can't do on iphone. But besides all that, I've been using smartphones for years now, ever since they have been worth using, and android most of all, comes with the features u would expect from an actual smart phone and not some over hyped piece of crap.the only reason u and ur sister don't love that droid is because u don't know what to do with it. Ur just some kid that's been brainwashed by apple and have 0 experience in smartphones period. Now quit trying to start stupid little arguments with adults and go back to bed or your mom is going to spank u
90. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
I don't have to read about it. I use a Droid almost everyday. And stop with the open source crap. Developers go straight to iPhone even with all it's rules. Android is open but it's still hard to find a good app that actually works on your Android model. Its actually kind of sad. Why are developers so afraid of Android? I'm always reading "nice, when is this coming to Android?" or "why doesn't ______ make an app like this for Android." I know because I've looked and it actually is frustrating finding anything useful. You can tether (not sure about wifi) and customize all you want if you jailbreak your iphone. Multitasking is almost the same thing and almost every cellphone reviewer on the web agrees. I guess they're all fanboys too right? I really don't know much about overclocking processors so I can't really comment on that, even though 1.25 ghz is a capability of the Droid and not Android in general. I've never felt that my iPhone was slow that I needed a faster phone. The reviewers say that even the Droid X lags because of Android OS. Maybe that's why overclocking has become so popular. And do you know what is a basic smartphone feature? Opening Microsoft Office files. Why does the Droid say "Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone." so now I have to search the web for apps that can help me open a simple document file? What kind of a joke is that?!?! And I'm some kid who doesn't know anything about smartphones? Don't try to talk like you actually know who I am. Let's try to keep this about phones and not make random statements with no factual basis. And I'm not being a douche bag, (how old are you again? Haha) you kinda are though.
91. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
@ vzw fanman You should know by now that I don't think the iPhone is godly. I'm giving you guys a chance to explain why Android is so great and convince me and others of the wonderful opportunities Android brings. But instead you guys are just being sarcastic and insulting. Cali_E said that after showing his friend a few things, his friends said that Android was better. I asked him about those "things" too see if I would react the same way but he's basically telling me to go research it. Nice. But the good thing is that I've researched Android plenty of times and have only found notification system, widgets/customization, and the all too common "openness." I was hoping he'd give me specific details and new insight and not talk about the cliche openness, overclocking, decoration, etc.

9. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
That is verizon for you as they are trying to slow down the loss of customers who leave for AT&T - even with that happening they are still gaining subscribers from SPRINT and TMOBILE.
32. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
what are you talking about? VZW has the lowest churn of any company ever. They lose very few customers to other companies. And about 40% that leave for the iphone, RETURN. That doesnt say much for ATT does it. Leave for the phone, come back for the service.
35. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
And 60% don't return? that's still a lot.
59. *HOVA* (Posts: 564; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
Hey remixfa where are you getting your facts. I'd like to see some proof of those outlandish claims.
82. JackFace (Posts: 190; Member since: 03 Nov 2009)
Remix: I'm pretty sure AT&T Had the lowest churn last quarter... Just Sayin'

Money talks....bull shyt walks....shoot all you won't at apple bet it won't sell out of inventory in 3 days if they sell out at all. Not saying apple is a better phone but don't talk trash until you see the weekly sales 1st.There nothing worse than being the better phone and coming 2cd place in sales from the crappier one.
16. gambino37 (Posts: 146; Member since: 16 Oct 2009)
I would like to know why people regard sales as the only distinction in making one phone better than the other? In my opinion the phone that has the best features and stands the test of time is the better phone. iPhone 4 has probably the best screen, and even that is in question right now, but that's about it. If you polish a turd it will sell, but underneath its still a turd.
24. PhoneUser (Posts: 78; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
@Gambino37 I couldn't have said it better myself. Lets see whats better......Sales.....or.......a working phone?????/ I MUST be crazy but i'll take a working phone over a phone that sold Millions but comes with multiple problems.......
26. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
Sales are what corporate america is after - it is all about numbers...go ahead and -1 my posts as always, but I speak the truth....
36. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
The Droid X has the bigger screen and that's about it also. Where exactly does the Droid X beat iPhone?
44. iheartblueberry (Posts: 78; Member since: 26 Apr 2010)
Camera? Video Camera? Network? Not Crippled? Better 1GHZ processor? want me to keep going??? OH!!!!!!! You CAN hold it ANY way you like!
53. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
Well 8 megapixel camera isn't that great (whether its better or worse than the iPhone I don't know yet). The iPhone's HD video is better hands down. Not crippled? That's not a big issue for most. If you can root then you can jailbreak, same shizz. Better 1Ghz processor? How do you know that? Yes I would like you to keep going. You can hold it anyway you like? I agree 100% on that one.
5. BlackberryUser (Posts: 609; Member since: 26 Jun 2009)
That is great...
7. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
I have never owned a phone where if I hold t normally the call drops. Phone looks great and if I were a VERIZON customer I would grab it up.
8. anthonygolovey (Posts: 44; Member since: 30 Dec 2009)
i just switched from verizons incredible to the IPHONE 4, i must admit this is a funny ass add, however comparing motorolas quality of phones to appples quality is like comparing Hyundai to BMW. Also i bet it wont sell 1.7 million over the weekeng, no matter how hard anyone tries its impossible to beat APPPLE. i had every phone on verizon and i love the iphone more then any phone i had, although i must admin reception wise and 3g coverage wise verizon is a LITTLE BIT BETTER.
10. omarc26 (Posts: 360; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
well yea i admit iphone is better but i rather have a crappy phone on verizon that can atleast make calls my girlfriend got the new iphone 4 n well its fails as a phone when u need it.. so im sticking with verizon. n who cares if it wont sell 1.7 million on the first 3 days like the iphone.. at least i bet this phone can hold a call longer than 5 minutes with out it dropping the call ..
12. anthonygolovey (Posts: 44; Member since: 30 Dec 2009)
"omarc26" I can hold a call for longer then 30 min anyday anytime, i was on the same page as you very spectacle about AT&T and their network, so far as i have stated above i noticed VERIZON a bit better but not by much, on top of that i dont get dropped calls and can hold a call longer then 30 min easy i havent talked with no one longer then 30 min so i am sure it can even hold it longer.
17. theman414 (Posts: 132; Member since: 08 Jun 2009)
I have an iphone and no reception issues. I personally like Verizon's customer service and would switch back if they got an iphone and off of CDMA. Once you start talking, surfing, texting, at the same time, and easily swap sim cards to a crappy phone when you go overseas.. It's hard to go back, but I'll tell anybody that Verizon has the best customer service. Hopefully LTE comes soon

14. jherz6 (Posts: 216; Member since: 23 May 2008)
The only reason people are leaving Verizon is to get the iPhone. The reason people are leaving AT&T is the poor service and customer service. According to Bloomberg there will a vzw iPhone by January which is when Verizon makes the jump to lte and Apple will not have to manufacture a cdma version, because the iPhone will function on Verizons network. If this does really happen talk about people leaving AT&T's sinking ship. Because the iPhone is the only thing keeping them afloat. As far as phone quality the android based phones had the iPhone beat even before it was released. Non of Motorola's phone's had lawsuits slapped on them as has happened with the iPhone 4G as announced on the local news last night. Say what you want about Verizon. But when they release a new device there might be a few minor bugs which are soon fixed with updates, not like AT&T with as many problems that there faciliting with the iPhone and the major issues it faces . Bad reception caused by a bad antenna can't befixed by a ota upgrade. So why did they release the iPhone before it was ready?
27. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
It is iphone 4, not 4G - that will be next year - APPLE is the new MICROSOFT....

Personally I love cooking any sweet fish in the oven. I usually put some mustard on top, followed by some herbs like dill and parsley, then bake until it flakes. Guacamole is also really good on fish, too!
Caught a good feast of it last week but not sure how to cook it without traditional batter. I'm a newbie to cooking/eating fish. Right now it's in the freezer.
Extra points if you can get my kids to enjoy it!
Needing some accountability, so here's my stats:
34yrs old, 5'5"
CW: 163lbs (07/2014)
GW: 135lbs or less
Eating mainly paleo, but including a bit of white rice (don't call the Paleo Police!)
Personally I love cooking any sweet fish in the oven. I usually put some mustard on top, followed by some herbs like dill and parsley, then bake until it flakes. Guacamole is also really good on fish, too!
Maybe make a chowder, slice it up and drop it in? I use any kind of fish for that.
Saute with butter. Can't go wrong there.
I prefer not to freeze fish if possible. Eat fresh (with in a 1-3 days) or I give it away to someone who will eat it right away. You can also make a stock with the fish heads and bodies, strain, then make a soup with whatever veggies you like (onion, bell pepper, carrots, celery are basics). Turn off the heat and add the fish in once the veggies are soft. If the idea of fish stock is too weird use chicken stock or just water.
For fillets I like to sprinkle lemon pepper and a little salt on both sides. Make sure fillets are dry.
Fry up some bacon and leave the grease, then add butter.
Fry the fish until flaky. Crumple up the bacon and add on top.
Yummy enough for me.
I like to cook it in on the grill in aluminum pan covered with foil, or just wrapped in foil. Generous amount of olive oil, and then I like to season with garlic, lemon, and salt and pepper and make sure fish is coated well with all. Grilling time will vary depending on grill - but cook until flakey. Almost seems hard to overcook if enough oil used (I use lots of oil, not floating in it but enough so its covering the pan on bottom). Just cooked some up last weekend for family and it was a hit for those used to eating it breaded and fried! they were still talking about it the next day.
Oh...and my kids love it!

text: Wash it as well as you would other greens I choose to steam it most of the time or saute it with other vegetables in coconut oil or butter. I don't think that it tastes very good raw and in most cases, light cooking of vegetables increases nutrient absorption. Eating it with a fatty oil like coconut or olive oil increases nutrient absorption and I advise you to use spices copiously.

Be careful pokin holse in Lipos before soaking them
Hey guys,
I mentioned in an earlier thread that I had my first set of lipos puff out on me.. Well, when I went to poke a hole so I could soak them, They went off like a magnisum fuse!... I didnt see a fire, but the smoke was so thick it would be hard to see anyway... It was one of the cells, si I still gotta figure how to safely dispose of the other two in the pack... I have pics, but they are high res so I cant post them....

Hoppy has done a lot of hard work to accumulate all of the causes for various Li-poly accidents reported on this forum. From the sticky at the top of the forum ( http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=209187 ), here is the total involving puncturing ballooned Li-polys prior to this most recent incident:
Ballooned pack ignites when punctured. (20)
If you did not follow the exact procedure for disposing of ballooned Li-polys outlined by Jim McPherson in the sticky linked to above, that's another good reason why all Li-poly users should read the sticky very carefully!
If you did follow the procedure and still had this failure, then perhaps that part of the sticky needs to be rewritten.

why would anyone want to punch a hole in a li-po in the first place??????

I have disposed if two puffed lipo cells, the first about 18 months ago (tab broke off, then cell puffed when I tried to charge it after repairing with siver-bearing epoxy), the second about three months ago when it gradually puffed, probably because of a defective seal.
In each case, the cell discharged to inertia when soaked in salt water. I don't know how long it took, actually. I left them alone for a month (outside, of course) and they measured 0 volts when I took them out of their bath.
What's the hurry?
The purpose of salt bath is not to saturate cell internally but slowly discharge it to 0V.
So there is no need to puncture the cell, and it also is somewhat dangerous.
I dont remember whats the disposal procedure in the stickies, I'll have to look it up I guess.

I found that if you imerse it in water and then puncture the covering all it will do is bubble a lot. I used a sharpe ice pick and puctured several holes all around the cell(s) I didn't use salt water but can see that it would not be a problem to do so. They quit bubbleing in about 2 hours. They tested to zero volts and all I did was toss them in the garbage can. Caution is the rule no matter how you dispose of them. Gud Flying.....Dick

Dick, one of the unwritten rules is to puncture only after the cell is fully discharged. But an added safety measure is to puncture with a non-metallic item to avoid shorting just in case there is any charge left.
This goes way back. The salt water bath is to discharge an unpunctured Li-poly cell. After it's discharged, puncturing the cell and soaking again in salt water neutralizes the cell's electrolyte. But I believe it was finally decided that the electrolyte didn't need to be neutralized as long as the cell is fully discharged.
This might be worth revisiting. It would be nice to get a consensus from the experts. It may be that the sticky needs editing in this area. There's no need to mention puncturing in the sticky if puncturing is not really needed to safely dispose of a fully discharged cell.
Hey Guys,
I was under the impression that they had to be punctured so the salt water could saturate/drain the electrolytes in the cell and only then were they safe to be tossed... I understand the salt water method now... Electricity will flow through water, salt speeds the process up a little, plus if the pack does decide to go off, it is in water and chances of a fire are minimal..... As for the metalic object comment..... Had I poked it with a plastic one and still peirced the layers of electrolyte material, the pack may still go off. Cause of the pack failure.. 2 fold... an impact caused a dent in one corner. It tested fine on the volt meter, so I stuck it on the charger.. I forgot to change my charger from a 4 cell to a 3 cell so I was charging the pack at too high of a voltage. The whole incident is "Newbie to Lipo" related.... Totally my fault and absolutely no fault of the pack...
