CANFIELD - Ryan Sullivan has been living in Bobby Johnson's shadow since the two have been racing.
Tuesday, the Howland High School senior saw nothing but daylight during the boys cross country field at the Canfield Fairgrounds.
Sullivan ran 16 minutes, 27.12 seconds to beat out Johnson, a McDonald senior, for Tuesday's title.

"Me and Bobby have been racing ever since I began cross country," Sullivan said. "He's always been a great competitor. He's always been a little bit ahead of me every year. Finally this year I caught up to him. This race, I tried to get out to the front of the pack around the mile marker. So, he came up and got with me and ran the race the whole way. I kept pushing him and him really pushing me the last mile and a half. Toward the end, I think he died off a little bit."
Sullivan has won plenty of races for Howland this season, while Johnson has done the same for the Blue Devils.
Johnson, who ran 16:38.19, won Saturday's Division III boys Spartan Invitational title in less than 16 minutes.
"I wasn't sure what I was going to do at first in this race," Johnson said. "I decided I'm going to go up and get the win. It was tough. I didn't feel my best today for sure. He had me at the end. It's no sweat. It's fun running against these (Division I) schools. We wanted to come in here as little McDonald and compete with them today."
Champion's Allen Sparks, and Canfield's Alec Kennedy and Chase Kern rounded out the top five.
Kennedy and Kern helped host Canfield edge out Howland for the team title, 47-52.

However, Canfield, which only ran on the course Tuesday because of a weekend swap meet at the fairgrounds, didn't have that so-called edge.
"It's a lot of satisfaction," Canfield coach Doug Weitzman said. "Mixed emotions. We don't get to run here often. We're honored to share the course with the league - one of the few places that can.
"We knew it was going to be close between us and Howland."
McDonald, Lakeview and Champion rounded out the top five teams.
Canfield usually trains at places like Boardman High School.
"There's so many events out here," Weitzman said of the fairgrounds. "It's tough to do any kind of training out here and do it the way you really want to do it."
As for the girls race, United's Allison Parks led from start to finish in most races this season. Tuesday was no different as she ran 20:06.95 for the win. Boardman's Jordan Grantonic took second (20:15.87).
Austintown Fitch's Carissa Jenkins, South Range's Mollie Pierson and Matti Dunham rounded out the top five.
"I had a lot of great competition today," Parks said. "It was fantastic with Boardman. They did very, very good. I've been wanting something like that, wanting some competition. They gave it to me and that was awesome."
Grantonic, who has won her share of races, paced the Spartan girls to the team title over Howland, 49-81. McDonald, South Range and Canfield were next.
As for Sullivan and Johnson, they will go head-to-head again next Tuesday at Maplewood High School in the Trumbull County Championships.
"I'm still hungry," Sullivan said. "I can't wait for the next Tuesday meet we have, which is Trumbull County and I'll get to race against Bobby again."
"It would be fun to win county," Johnson said. "That's one of my goals. It will be fun to go up against him and, hopefully help my team get a team title. We'll see what happens there."

Well right off the bat I can think of 2 or 3 different ways to make your programs work again.
1: Is to rearrange your drives on their ide cables until you get the second harddrive to be the desired drive letter. Or
2: Go into the properties of the programs affected and change the letter they associate where to look or do it in the registry, whatever is needed. Or
3: Is to uninstall/reinstall the programs affected, pointing them to the correct drive letter. You'll probably get errors such as 'There is already a file named ***, do you want Windows to overwrite it?' Choosing yes or even no will result in the program funtioning properly but I would go for the overwrite unless there are files in them you do not want to lose.
Let us know if any of these ways work, more ideas to follow if they don't.

DEPTFORD TWP. — The South Jersey American Red Cross helped five family members displaced by a fire to an Ogden Road home on Saturday, Township Fire Marshal Capt. Robert A. Burkhardt Jr. said.
No injuries were reported in the afternoon fire that virtually destroyed the home at 344 Ogden Road. Burkhardt said the family's dog escaped the flames as well, but three other pets — all birds — did not.
The cause of the fire, which heavily damaged the home and started in the kitchen and laundry area, was still undetermined as of Monday, Burkhardt said.
South Jersey Region Red Cross spokeswoman Laura Steinmetz said her group provided the family with a hotel stay, clothing and food on a client assistance card (CAC).
The Red Cross also provides referrals to other aid agencies. Assistance was handled by volunteer Ron Borden, Steinmetz said.
The spokeswoman added that the Ogden Road blaze was one of three fires in Gloucester County to which the Red Cross responded in less than two days.
The group also gave CAC cards for a hotel stay, food and clothing expenses to a two adults whose Main Road, Franklin Township kitchen was gutted by fire on the same day. That response, handled by Red Cross Response Lead Jim Shew, also brought referrals to other aid agencies, Steinmetz said.

It's a big week for Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck, who, for the second consecutive year, is a Heisman Trophy finalist. Along with the honor, Luck has made it clear he's headed to the NFL as the projected first overall pick in the 2012 Draft, likely by the winless Indianapolis Colts.
With that scenario, this question has been looming: Would the Colts be able to bring in Luck to effectively co-exist with the first overall pick and Heisman runner-up already on their roster, Peyton Manning?
Manning's father, former NFL QB Archie, believes that's far from the best situation.
"I don't think it'd necessarily be great for either one," Archie Manning said on Fox Sports Radio Zakk & Jack Show on Tuesday. "I think Andrew's the type of mature player (where) he can walk right in."
The elder Manning also noted that despite playing with Andrew's father, West Virginia athletic director Oliver Luck, and Peyton being familiar with Andrew from the Manning Passing Academy, the family's recent connection doesn't necessarily translate into a good competitive combination on the field.
"Peyton's also tried to help Andrew and kind of be a friend," Manning told Fox Sports Radio." I doubt if either one want to play on the same team."
There's no guarantee that Peyton Manning, 35, coming off an entire season lost to a neck injury, will be able to go back to suiting up as the Colts' starter next season. Although Indianapolis would have the potential to trade the pick, the better bet is that, assuming they stay at No. 1, they'll go ahead and draft Andrew Luck as Manning's imminent successor.
Although sitting behind future Hall of Famer Brett Favre has worked wonders for the best quarterback in the NFL, Aaron Rodgers, the rookie QB landscape has changed since the 2005 draft.
Consider that this year's first overall pick, Cam Newton, has performed at a high level for the Carolina Panthers, and has been joined by fellow rookies Andy Dalton of the Cincinnati Bengals and Christian Ponder of the Minnesota Vikings as promising young starters. It would make little sense for Luck, considering his NFL-ready skill set, to sit wherever he goes for his rookie season.
Then there's matter of how much the Colts would be willing to pay if they wanted to keep Manning with Luck.
However it plays out, the fact that Luck could be lining up for the Colts makes it the most intriguing No. 1 decision since Peyton's brother, New York Giants starter Eli Manning, decided he didn't want to stick with the San Diego Chargers in 2004.

This colloquium is an opportunity to investigate the application of Epicureanism to Enlightenment strategies. The seventeenth and eighteenth centuries witnessed various techniques for incorporating Epicurean elements in the fields of natural and moral philosophy, history and the science of man. What has generally been referred to as Enlightenment optimism can be characterized as the substitution of an Epicurean social theory for the Augustinian. In this analysis the Epicurean tradition has frequently been subsumed into both Augustinian and Stoic traditions in a paradigm which opposes the two and fails to take Epicureanism into account in its own right. By the same token 'Epicurean' has been used synonymously with Spinozism, and to indicate irreligion more generally.
The conference presents a forum to discuss the various conceptualisations of Epicureanism as it was employed by Enlightenment figures – those who were sympathetic to, or employed Epicureanism for their own ends, as well as those who were hostile to the Epicurean tradition. Perhaps the clearest failing of the oppositional paradigm mentioned above is the influence of physics on ethics: The eighteenth-century thinkers who are understood to make up the core of the French Enlightenment were heavily influenced by materialism – usually of the atomic variety. In the intellectual history of the period these thinkers are portrayed as anti-Augustinians, which they most certainly were, but frequently as neo-Stoics, which is especially common in discussions of Enlightenment figures outside France. It will be useful to investigate the extent to which this anti-Augustinianism can be considered as Epicurean.
On the question of religion, for example, it might be worthwhile to investigate what was common to the materialism of La Mettrie, d'Holbach, Helvétius and Hume, and in what manner they differed. More broadly, was there an intentional use of neo-Stoicism as a mask for the atheism so readily inferred from Epicurean materialism? Who might have felt the need for this useful conflation of doctrines, and who did not?
The Epicurean account of the genesis of language likewise appealed to various early modern thinkers who tried to reconcile a natural history of language and mind with the Biblical account of Adamic name-giving. Epicurus's historical perspective allowed for a measure of contingency to emerge in the development of initially natural words and signs. This creative hypothesis, a third way between Aristotelian linguistic conventionality and the Platonic supernatural guarantee of congruence between words and things, was incorporated in different manners by authors as different from one another as Vico, Leibniz, and Condillac. By integrating the Epicurean account of language into their own theories, these authors revived the difficulties inherent to the ancient thesis and had to confront such problems in innovative ways.
Speakers are therefore invited to address the common appeal to the Epicurean tradition by a broad spectrum of figures. It is hoped that this approach will provide interdisciplinary insights into its uses in France, Italy, Scotland, and Germany, and illuminate the resulting Epicureanisms in each case – their commonalities and distinctivenesses. This will open onto a discussion of "what was Epicureanism?" The selection of papers and the choice of respondents will frame this discussion in terms of, but not limited to, novels of libertinism, evolutionary theories of language and society, (a)theism, and political economy.
Practical information
The conference will take place in the Summer Common Room at Magdalen College, Oxford on the 17th of June. If you are interested in giving a paper please submit a one-page abstract by March 31st, as an attachment, to both of the addresses below. Those interested in attending the colloquium are requested to inform the organisers by May 31st.

I am going to attempt to make Dr. B's sponge cake to see if my daughter likes it.. experimenting tonight :)

I am going to attempt to make Dr. B's sponge cake to see if my daughter likes it.. experimenting tonight :)
I made DS some flourless cake yesterday, in cupcake size, but apparently either he or is father has a problem with understanding that 1 cupcake is a serving. So I am not going to make it if they are going to eat 4 servings at a time. I am trying to get them used to less sweet taste in things and eventually to learn that treats are occasional things not daily or multiple times or servings daily.
LOL to the above. My men do the same thing with gluten free waffles and other wheat free fare I've been trying to incorporate. Not ideal, I know, but if we could just get rid of the wheat...
BTW Congrats on you loss of weight and inches. Your steadfastness on this program is an inspiration to me.
Thanks, I really have taken an attitude very similar to when I decided to become a vegetarian. It is what I do. It isn't a diet or something I can go off of or on to. I guess I have vegetarianism to thank for something. It is a different way of thinking than when I did WW or Atkins or any of the other hundreds of diets I went on. even though when I started one of those diets I was always gung ho, and sure this was it, it was really just a way of eating. With being a vegetarian or being Primal it really is about how you view what you eat, the chain of where it comes from, being an informed consumer. It also influences other decisions as well, such as movement and just life-sort of simplifying things. More a paradigm of sorts. Makes it easier.
Alright, so my house is a wreck! I don't mean, ooo I got a dust bunny under the couch or a newspaper on the ottoman, I mean there is stuff lying all over the place. My new laundry room with its lovely new shelves is done, and full, but I still have a ton of stuff I had managed to stuff into it that needs to go somewhere. Fine, whatever, I will, BUT we have friends coming for dinner tonight and tomorrow night. Which still would not be a big deal, but the table we would normally eat at is what my DS has been using as his homework desk. His school schedule is such that he has half his classes one day and the other half the next, alternating. Works out pretty well, has its advantages and disadvantages. But that means that some things are always on that table. Normally I would just move them to our breakfast nook table, but of course it is loaded down with stuff as well. So when I get home from work I am going to have to take more than a few trips to the basement. That will be my movement for today.
I rolled over on my back last night, which makes me snore no matter what device I am using, gonna have to figure out how to not do that. I also need to figure out how to get myself into bed by 9:30, the 5:30 wake up is a killer. I tend to relax in front of the tv with the boys and tend to get sucked into the next show. Last night was Mythbusters, which is great and ends at 9 here so that would work if I would get up and get ready for bed then, but then a new Penn & Teller show came on that looked interesting (it was ok, but not worth losing sleep over), which takes me to Jon Stewart. blah blah, gonna figure out a way to watch Jon Stewart without staying up. or just let him go....
So yesterday's food:
B: mocha (seriously I have for the last few days decided I would eat something with this and cut back to 1 scoop of protein, but then morning comes and my stomach says don't be silly I am not taking any food in right now, and I end up with the 2 scoops of protein powder. At some point in the not too distant future-when I 'finish' the leptin reset-i am going to ease off the powder and basically IF breakfast with the exception of coffee and cream. I just don't want to force food into my mouth when I am not hungry)
L: lettuce, salmon, avocado, chia seeds, oil, vinegar, tea, coconut milk, stevia
D: ground meat, steamed brussell sprouts with butter, creamed spinach with tomatoes
My house we have an 8pm bedtime FOR EVERYONE.lol I took it to 7pm last night though. We do not get sucked in by TV anymore.. I dumped the dish (which is all we can get out here). So we have a couple shows we watch on the local channels and then TV off. LOL
I wish! Unfortunately my husband is a horrible addict, if he is in the house it is on, and if it is on then ds is in front of it-like a moth to a flame. The noise drives me insane in the morning!
It is a strange thing, DH does not have a weight issue-goes to the gym nearly daily, and he eats pretty much what ever I make, although he has been trying to lose a few pounds so he has been keeping his dinner on the small side with the side effect that he is scavenging for food later in the day. Anyway, the strange part is that the example he sets for ds is he comes home has a couple of gins in front of the tv, eats dinner in front of the tv, falls asleep in front of the tv, then goes to bed late. So ds is trying to pick up those habits since he doesn't see the workout habit.
yikes.. whats a mom to do??
When TTOM is over (should be Sunday) and my iron has a chance to refill, we (DS and I) are going to start the 5 primal movements. Then DH and I are going to start taking an evening walk.
The tv is the bane of my existence.
We gave ours up several years ago and do not miss it. I mean, why was I complaining that I didn't have time to get everything done or me time when every night I wasted four hours in front of the television? Do you know how much one person can do in four hours? Seriously, a bubble bath by candlelight with a glass of wine gives me much greater satisfaction!

When I got home from work only three faces greeted me at the window.
I unlocked the door with dread , and called Max's name.
Then I saw him lying on his side on the kitchen rug. He looked like he had lain down to sleep,except for the small, blood-tinged puddle by his mouth.
Last night Max had coughed more than usual. He was already taking more medicine. CG had called the vet and gotten the lasix increased on Thursday to make him more comfortable. With his failing heart, there was little else we could do.
But early in the day he had grabbed a toy hedgehog and played and barked, and this morning he happily ate his morning cookie.
Tonight it is raining and instead of Max sleeping by us in bed, he is buried out in the garden, under some stones with ferns all around.
Max was a sweet, good little dog. You never had to worry when children were around. He wouldn't even think of biting.
He was bright and happy, with the little fluggy tail always wagging.
We all loved you Maxie and we won't forget you.

Rauf Mammadov
The decision came from chief coach of the national team Vladimir Tukmakov. Eltaj Safarli will replace him in the national team.
"This decision has been taken based on not only Rauf's performance in the world championship," Tukmakov explained. "The results he showed in Baku Open, World Cup and Governor's Cup in Hanti-Mansiysk were taken into account."
"Yes, he failed in China, but I would not take a decision based on just one tournament. It turned out that the crisis was deeper than I expected. Rauf failed in Baku Open, Hanty-Mansiysk, which made me take this decision."
"This is a right solution. I have played badly as of late and generally took the news okay. Although, it was not good feeling to learn about this decision as a man who played for the national team for seven years and won the European Cup with it. Now I have to show myself to return to the team," Mammadov said in his turn.
"Did this news impact my mood before the start of the European Cup? I have no time to suffer and weep. I have to play for the team SOCAR in a decent way."
"What is my vision of a way out of the crisis? One needs not to lose optimism and work even harder. In principle, every chess player can face a failure. The players of our team have also experienced this. The main thing is not to give up," the chess player noted.

Pinnacle Secures $650K in Affordable Housing Grants for Two Middle Tennessee Agencies
The Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Cincinnati, in partnership with Pinnacle Financial Partners, recently awarded two grants totaling $650,000 to build affordable homes in Rutherford County and assist first-time homebuyers with special needs in Davidson County.
"Helping create more affordable housing is the cornerstone of Pinnacle's community involvement," said Terry Turner, Pinnacle's president and CEO. "Many people in Middle Tennessee need the assistance these grants provide to realize their dream of homeownership."
Since its inception in 2000, Pinnacle, together with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati, has partnered with affordable housing organizations to build 232 homes in Middle Tennessee. They also have provided more than $3.7 million in down payment assistance and other funding.
Rutherford County Habitat for Humanity (RCHFH) will receive an Affordable Housing Program grant of $450,000 to build nine three- or four-bedroom homes throughout the county.
"The partnership with Pinnacle and Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati will change the lives of nine families by helping break the cycle of poverty and providing a better future for their children," said Beth Smith, executive director of Rutherford County Habitat for Humanity.
The other grant provides $200,000 to Woodbine Community Organization in Nashville to help six individuals with mental disabilities living on Supplemental Security Income. These American Dream Homeownership Challenge funds will be used over the next two years for homebuyer counseling and down payment assistance.
"Because of this grant, six of our clients will gain the independence and fulfillment that comes from owning their own homes," said Rod Williams, Woodbine's director of housing services.

UP provides links to its parent company, the Union Pacific Corporation, as well as its subsidiaries. We also link to a number of third-party external sites. The inclusion of any link does not imply UP endorsement of the external site company, its website, or the products and services it promotes or sells.

Since announcing her engagement to fiancé Mike Feldman in May, Today show anchor Savannah Guthrie has been feeling the wedding-plan pressure.
"Everyone including our mothers are wondering when the heck we are going to get married," she tells PEOPLE. "They are just so happy and excited for us."
Despite the push to walk down the aisle, Guthrie, 41, and her fiancé, a political and communications advisor whom she began dating four years ago, are taking their time.
"We had such a great summer," she says. "We had a couple of engagement parties. Matt [Lauer] threw us one in New York and [NBC's chief White House correspondent] Chuck Todd threw us one in Washington. We were just enjoying the moment and the thrill of being engaged. Now we need to actually plan, so we are working on it."
As far as who will make the decisions when it comes to their big day, Guthrie says it will be a team effort.
"Both of us want to be involved, but at the same time we're overwhelmed by the prospect of having to plan a whole wedding, so we're in it together," she says. "He will probably want to be in charge of the music, and I could be in charge of flowers and doilies or whatever the girls are supposed to be in charge of."
But the most important aspect for the couple?
"We just want to create a feeling and an atmosphere and a moment," says Guthrie, who was previously married to BBC News presenter Mark Orchard. "It doesn't have to be formal and like a classic wedding situation – we just want it to feel meaningful and personal."

Many people are nervous about buying at auction and there are lots of myths about the saleroom. In fact, if you do your homework and observe a few common sense rules then bidding is not only very simple but can also be great fun.
Auctions are almost invariably exciting and interesting happenings with lashings of drama and tension even hopefully a few dashings of comedy, thrown together to produce a heady mix with an enduring appeal.
Many people are a little apprehensive about mixing it in the saleroom and there are probably few novice bidders who do not have at least a few butterflies as "their" lots come up for the first few times.
Come to think of it there are probably few experienced bidders who do not feel rather tense as a particularly important lot comes up.
In reality bidding is really quite simple but perhaps a couple of the more well-known myths should be explored first.
Contrary to rumour, if you scratch your nose, twitch, wink or wave to a friend who has just entered the saleroom then you are not going to end up with a stuffed water buffalo which is going to fill the living room and send the bank manager into outer space. It just doesn't happen.
Secondly to buy at auction you have got to be rich – right? WRONG!
There are reasonably priced lots, even bargains, in every auction. Sure some very fine pieces of antique furniture can make thousands of pounds…..but then brand new furniture isn't these days exactly cheap on the high street.
Even though these lots tend to be the ones which grab the headlines the vast majority of things in an antique auction in this region will make under £100.
What is very important is to view the sale in advance and to check the condition of the items that you are interested in very carefully.
All auctions have a separate viewing session on the two days prior to the sale as well as on the sale morning before proceedings commence.
At the Driffield saleroom the view days are Wednesday 10am to 7pm and Thursdays 10am to 4pm for Antique and Fine Art auctions which take place on
Fridays and Thursdays and Fridays for the fortnightly Victorian and General and some specialist sales which take place on Saturdays. They are all advertised in the Driffield Times and other newspapers.
The auction catalogue will contain quite a lot of information about a piece.
It will not usually mention faults or damage – bidders are expected to look for themselves and make up their own minds. The catalogue will provide a guideline as to what a lot is expected to make.
A pre-sale estimate is just that, an educated view about the value of a piece. It can be that if two collectors are particularly determined to have something the price will soar way over the estimate.
Conversely something which you rate quite highly can attract little interest and go way under pre-sale estimate.
Once you have overcome your nerves bidding is very easy; indeed you do not even need to be in the room. On the view days you can fill in a form and leave what is known as a commission or absentee bid, in which case the auctioneer will bid for you….and get the lot as cheaply as possible.
If you are not able to attend but do wish to bid personally you can arrange to do so by telephone if the value of the lot is above a certain level.
Many auctions these days are live online auctions which means you can bid in real time from anywhere in the world via the internet.
All you have to do is log onto the host site, register your details, wait for your particular lots to come up and bid by pushing a button on the keyboard, just as if you were in the saleroom bidding.
If you decide to bid in person in the room you need to register and obtain a buyers number. When your lot comes up it is probably not a bad idea to see how the bidding goes and then come in firmly.
Don't wait too long…even in an antique and Fine Art sale the auctioneer is aiming to sell at around 100-120 lots an hour, so it is all going to be over in around 30 seconds.
Wave to catch the auctioneer's eye and once you have caught his attention he will keep coming back to you until you shake your head in defeat or the hammer comes down and you have triumphed.
It is fun but one final word of advice – decide what your limit is and stick to it.
People do get carried away in the heat of battle and it is possible to find yourself paying out more than you intended.
Now what are you going to bid for this stuffed water buffalo – wonderful condition – not something you see in many living rooms in East Yorkshire?

Symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) may occur suddenly after you have a cold , bronchitis , hepatitis, or an intestinal infection. Symptoms may follow a bout of infectious mononucleosis (mono), which is caused by a virus that temporarily saps your energy. CFS can also begin after a period of high stress. Sometimes it develops more gradually, with no clear illness or other event noted as a starting point.
Unlike flu symptoms that usually go away in a few days or weeks, symptoms of CFS persist or recur in cycles for at least six months in 50% of time. CFS symptoms vary from person to person. Since 1994, the guidelines for diagnosing CFS include, in addition to a six-month history of fatigue that is not relieved with bed rest, at least four of the following eight symptoms:
In addition to the eight diagnostic symptoms, patients with CFS can also suffer from:

A checkoff program in which Oklahoma oil and gas producers pay a fee based upon the output of a well is working successfully at funding programs in petroleum education and restoration of drilling sites, according to the president of the Oklahoma Independent Petroleum Association.
Bartlett, speaking at the annual Panhandle Producers and Royalty Owners Association meeting in Amarillo, said the program was set up about 15 years ago.
Producers pay 2 cents for each barrel of oil or thousand cubic feet of natural gas from their wells in Oklahoma.
Half the money goes for an education program in Oklahoma's schools to explain how energy is produced, he said, and half goes for restoration of drilling sites.
Oklahoma has about 2,000 abandoned well sites, including abandoned wells, sludge pits and saltwater injection wells, in need of cleaning, Bartlett said.
Oklahoma will spend about $4 million this year on environmental remediation.
Cleanup in Texas has been done through fees assessed by the Texas Railroad Commission, which was up for Sunset Review during the current legislative session.
An amendment in the Senate would include a cleanup fund among commission duties.
The review, which would renew the functions of the commission if approved by the Legislature, was in the hands of state House members at press time.
Bartlett said a nationwide checkoff system has been proposed, but runs into opposition from major oil companies, which are concentrating their efforts on drilling and production.
The Oklahoma Independent Petroleum Association plans to continue pushing for a nationwide checkoff program, Bartlett said.
The Panhandle Producers and Royalty Owners Association named officers at its annual meeting. They are: president, Mike Riley; past president, John Buckthal; vice presidents, Randy O'Neal and Roy Hunter; secretary, David Walker; treasurer, Richard Brown; executive committee, Brady Brown, Tracy Hindman, Bob Cornelius and Jim Bertramson; board member, Ted Francis.

So many new blogs….
This week I was in Ohio for a few days with my DI for the Little Guy Seminar. This southern girl is about to freeze in these northern states! It was a rainy, cold day so I'm glad that I was inside! I just love this seminar—you can check out to see if it is coming to your area (here). This teacher/principal team (photo) was so funny! Karen (the teacher) was really working that principal to buy her some teacher goodies! Do you think she convinced her? She sure did! I also meet a sweet teacher, Ellen, that is friends with my friend Michele from Fabulous in First! Did you follow that "friend chain"? Ellen went on and on about how great Michele is, and ya'll she's right! Her blog is so stinkin' cute (and so is she by the way). Michele even inspired Ellen to start her own blog. Find her blog (here).
Now here's somewhere else you need to check out. Remember me talking about going to Karen Stamp's class back a few months ago? Well she is doing a humungous giveaway for reaching 300 followers on her blog! Did I spell that right? Is it really even a word? Be sure and enter to win by clicking on the picture above.
Next up….Back about 15 years ago, this super cute fun teacher started teaching at my school in Forsyth, GA! She was a bundle of energy and inspired me to be more creative. Okay….so there was one thing about her that drove me absolutely drove me crazy….She was a brand new teacher and was eager to make everything. So, each day she would come by and "borrow" something to take home and make that night. So where's the problem you might ask? Is it that I didn't want to share? No, definitely not, I love to share with other teachers! Guessed it yet? Yep, your right….hers always looked better than mine! So then I would want to redo mine too! All joking aside, she is probably one of the most creative people that I know. So who is this mystery teacher---Wendy Gilstrap. The first presentations I ever did, where with my partner in crime, Wendy! We presented together for a while and then were encouraged to split and go it alone. I am more than a few years older than Wendy. So at this time she was also starting her young family and decided to just stick to teaching. Her kids are growing and so is her creativity. She has started a new blog (here) and has a tpt store (here)! I promise you, you want to check it out!
So one last final shout out! You know how when you are teaching and you meet another teacher, you can tell right from the start if you are going to hit if off? Well it works the same when you are presenting. Several years ago (more than I can remember) I was presenting at a conference when I met Shari Sloane! (That's Shari, Megan, and me at the National I Teach K Conference in Vegas!) Now I know that lots of you know her from her fabulous website (here). Well, guess what? She has finally started a tpt store (here)! I love her music and I have made a lot of little music books to go with her songs. My kids love her Vowel Bat Song. My husband made me these super cute capes and Shari gave me permission to make the music book (here).
So, as you can see…this blogging world and tpt is exploding! It is changing the way we teach. It encourages us to share and use the ideas of others in our classroom. It inspires us to try to create our own original ideas to share with others. In the end, it has made us all better teachers! It is a win-win situation!

You are so right about the blogging world. It inspired me to start my own. It is so exciting to see new ideas and also to share. Yours has been blessing. I would love to have you stop by mine.

The "Emoti Chair" as they call it is built to bring musical pleasure to the deaf and the hearing impaired. The chair has a multitude of build-in speakers and vibrating devices delicately calibrated to "translate music and sound into movement. Whether it be rocking or vibrations, the music can be heard through the movement of the chair, expressing to the person sitting, the emotion heard in sound."

Shown last month at MoMA, the Mind Chair:
A movie camera is attached to an enhanced grid of 400 solenoids installed in the back of the Mind Chair. People are able to sit in the chair, close their eyes and concentrate on the images which are vibrated into their backs by the solenoids.
Also check out the variant called Mind Chair Polyprop, which seems like an effort to make a more practical, mass-producible version.

Melanie Amaro saw the less-than-warm and fuzzy side of Simon Cowell when he initially told her she would not be moving forward on The X Factor, a decision he quickly reversed and apologized for.
But she's seen his soft side, too.
"On camera, he's like this big tough guy, but when the cameras come off, he's a big teddy bear," she tells PEOPLE of her mentor, 52. "He's so sweet and he's loving and he's hugging and he's kissing. And he's just like, 'You're awesome!' "
Cowell, who's competing against his co-judges Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger and L.A. Reid, has a good reason to dish out the positive reinforcement. "He's trying to give you his motivation," Amaro says. "He's trying to help you as much as he can. He's being Simon."
On Wednesday night's episode, which marked the first time viewers could vote for the contestants, Cowell told her, "Right now, you're the one to beat."
"I was shocked, and I was happy," Amaro, 19, says of the compliment. "I was like, 'Wow, he sees that I'm working really, really hard.' "
Having proved her talent, Amaro says she wanted to mix things up a bit on Wednesday, which she did by singing the Eagles' "Desperado."
"He told me already that I keep him guessing," she says. "He says what he thinks I'm going to do I never do, but that just makes him feel like I'm trying to push myself out of my comfort zone and making him proud of me."

Ohio's No. 22 in the Associated Press poll and No. 24 in the BCS rankings. Toledo's was left on the brink of this week's Top 25. Northern Illinois, which might be the best of the three, is starting to gather votes. The Mid-American Conference is flexing some muscle at the national level.
None of this comes as news to UB coach Jeff Quinn. His Bulls played Ohio three weeks ago, Northern Illinois two weeks ago and complete a grueling conference stretch with Toledo this Saturday afternoon at UB Stadium.
A recent Sports Illustrated story examined whether Ohio could become the next Boise State. What makes that doubtful is the MAC's overall strength as witnessed by Toledo and Northern Illinois's ability to sustain despite significant graduation losses.
The top four teams in the MAC (include Kent State) are a combined 27-3 with all three losses coming to BCS automatic qualifiers. Competition is keen.
"We see it week in and week out," Quinn said at Tuesday's weekly news conference. "There are some very talented players. There are a lot of very good players that play the game of football coming out of high school in this country. The reason why this conference continuously gets better each and every year is because there's a lot of talent out there.
"There's opportunities for schools to attract kids, come in and play, play early, play some of the big schools, and that's what these kids want to do, they want to play. And a lot of times your best option is to take an opportunity to go to a Mid-American Conference school where you can get in and play."
The conference also is steeped in tradition, from its quarterback history (Chad Pennington, Ben Roethlisberger and Byron Leftwich, for three) to its coaching tree.
"There's a lot of talent in this league and a lot of quality coaches [who have moved on]," Quinn said. "You look at Brian Kelly [Notre Dame], and Butch Jones [Cincinnati] and Urban Meyer [Ohio State], Nick Saban [Alabama], some of the best coaches in the country have come through there."
Ohio's the first MAC school to crack the BCS rankings since Ball State in 2008 (UB's championship year). Both Miami and Northern Illinois cracked the BCS chart in 2003, with Miami, guided by Roethlisberger, rising as high as 11th.
The Bulls are slowly working their way back to health. Branden Oliver (knee) and Alex Neutz (chest) dressed but did not play against Pitt Saturday. Brandon Murie has been bothered by a sore ankle, although he was on kick returns against the Panthers.
"They're all better and we fully anticipate all three of those guys being involved in the game plan this week and hopefully give us some play out on that field against Toledo," Quinn said.
Wide receiver Fred Lee (wrist) could be back sooner than first anticipated although Quinn said he's not yet 100 percent. Safety Witney Sherry also is expected back after missing the Pitt game.
The Bulls utilized a West Coast-type passing offense against Pitt, with quarterback Alex Zordich letting go with shorter throws. Part of that was due to the Neutz injury that took UB's best receiver out of the equation. Part of it was helping Zordich get on track.
"We wanted to get Alex Zordich in some rhythm," Quinn said.
"I think it suits him better from that standpoint. We need to do a better job of protecting him sometimes, and he's got to have some faith and confidence, too, in those guys up front, maybe sit in there for an extra second or so. He's so confident in his ability to scramble sometimes it's nice just to take an extra split-second to hold in there before something else develops a little deeper downfield."
Toledo middle linebacker Dan Molls leads the country in tackles with 102 — 39 more than any teammate.
"They do a nice job protecting him," Quinn said. "They have a very solid front four and they keep him free."
Toledo's 7-1 for the first time since 2001. … UB Punter Tyler Grassman is 87th and last among the punters ranked in the Division I stats with a 34.63-yard average while the Bulls are tied for 116th in turnover margin at minus-1.57 a game. … Toledo running back David Fluellen (Lockport) is up to 16th nationally with 119.13 rushing yards per game. He torched No. 21 Cincinnati for 161 Saturday.

LOCKPORT – A Niagara Falls man was assigned to the judicial diversion program of court-supervised drug treatment Wednesday by Niagara County Judge Matthew J. Murphy III after the defendant pleaded guilty to possession of crack cocaine.
Rashue V. Black, 43, of 15th Street, admitted to third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. He had been charged with having 1.69 grams of crack Nov. 8, 2011, in the Falls.
In another Falls drug case Wednesday, County Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas placed Lawrence A. Garabedian, 59, of 17th Street, on three years' probation for seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. Garabedian was originally charged with selling heroin Nov. 27, 2011.

The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hillby Mark Bittner
The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill is the inspiring story of how one man found his life's work--and true love--among a gang of wild parrots roosting in one of America's most picturesque urban settings. Mark Bittner was down on his luck. He'd gone to San Francisco at the age of twenty-one to take a stab at a music career, but he hadn't had much success. After many years as an odd-jobber in the area, he accepted work as a housekeeper for an elderly woman. The gig came with a rent-free studio apartment on the city's famed Telegraph Hill, which had somehow become home to a flock of brilliantly colored wild parrots. In this unforgettable story, Bittner recounts how he became fascinated by the birds and made up his mind to get to know them and gain their trust. He succeeds to such a degree that he becomes the local wild parrot expert and a tourist attraction. People can't help gawking at the man who, during daily feedings, stands with parrots perched along both arms and atop his head. When a documentary filmmaker comes along to capture the phenomenon on film, the story takes a surprising turn, and Bittner's life truly takes flight.From the Hardcover edition.
The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill: A Love Story ... with Wingsby Mark Bittner
True story of the flock of wild parrots who live in San Francisco's Telegraph Hill, and the man who became a local expert on them. When Judith Irving made a documentary about Mark and the parrots, his life took a surprising turn.

HANCEVILLE, Alabama -- It's been a long week of exciting basketball at Wallace State's Tom Drake Coliseum.
And that's proved to be a good thing for the 1A games in the morning. If history mattered, they shouldn't have played the games. But boys the Marion County boys and Lynn girls avenged three previous defeats.
Eighth-ranked Marion County's boys team, which had lost all three regular-season meetings to No. 3 Parrish, showed the last win matters most in a 68-67 regional final victory. And J.O. Johnson handed Butler its first regional final loss since 2010 with a 53-41 win over the Rebels.
On the girls side, The No. 4 Bears made up for three previous losses at Drake Coliseum to R.A. Hubbard in the regional and picked up a 53-43 win for its first trip to Birmingham in school history. In Class 4A, No. 1 Oneonta's girls moved on with a 53-34 win over West Limestone.
In Class 3A, No. 2 Lauderdale County stopped No. 3 Madison Academy, 54-45, in a battle of 3A girls finalists from 2012. Madison Academy's boys, in turn, knocked off Mars Hill with a physical 48-45 win.
And not only was it an incredible overtime finish, be featured one of the best spontaneous halftime danceoffs you'll ever see.
Will the most exciting regional in the state hold its mark in the final day? So far, so good.

A Wales man was arrested Friday night on the Aurora Expressway in Elma by an Erie County sheriff's deputy, who charged him with driving while intoxicated.
The deputy responded to a report of a vehicle stopped on the expressway, also known as Route 400, with a passed-out driver inside.
The deputy arrested Javon S. Hoskins, 32, and charged him with DWI, illegal parking on the highway, and operating with an open alcoholic beverage. The Sheriff's Office said a breath test determined his blood alcohol content was 0.17 percent. Hoskins was released on appearance tickets.
The Sheriff's Office said this was the 19th DWI arrest by its road patrols this year

Now that the Democrats finally have a presumptive presidential nominee in Sen. Barack Obama, one of these days we can expect a long break from electoral politics - possibly until the start of the national political conventions in late August.
It's the usual election fatigue. After all, the first presidential debate of the 2008 race was actually held a year ago.
"I think most Americans just want to forget about politics for a while and go on with their summer vacation plans or just spend more time with their kids now that they are out school," said Harvey Kronberg, editor of the Quorum Report, an online publication that focuses on state government issues.
But like other Austin watchers, Kronberg thinks that after Labor Day, Texas voters will pay attention not just to the race between Obama and Sen. John McCain but to as many as 20 state legislative contests, plus the U.S. Senate race between incumbent John Cornyn and Democratic challenger Rick Noriega of Houston.
In the Texas House alone, there are between 12 and 18 hotly contested races that could determine not only whether the Democrats can regain control of the lower chamber but whether unpopular speaker Tom Craddick, R-Midland, is ousted.
And though Texas Democratic Party officials are convinced their party will regain control of the House, Kronberg and other Austin watchers remind them there are some Democratic incumbents who are also vulnerable.
In the Texas Senate, where winners are elected to four-year terms, except in special elections to fill an unexpired term, three races are expected to get lots of attention. Incumbent Republicans Kim Brimer of Fort Worth and Mike Jackson of La Porte have well-funded Democratic opponents.
Also, as he announced in January, Houston Republican Kyle Janek resigned last week. Gov. Rick Perry has called for a special election for his seat on Nov. 4, the same day as the general election. Until recently, Janek's district was considered Republican-safe, but with Obama at the top of the Democratic ticket it is now considered up for grabs.
Another reason legislative races are expected to get attention is because the list of contentious issues for the 81st session is growing. The latest is the fate of the Texas Department of Transportation.
The staff of the Sunset Advisory Commission chaired by Rep. Carl Isett, R-Lubbock, is recommending a revamp of the troubled agency.
Last year, you may recall, Perry and lawmakers periodically locked horns and no disagreement was more volatile than his executive order to require sixth-grade girls to be vaccinated against a virus that causes cervical cancer.
The Legislature overwhelmingly overturned Perry's executive order.
Another state income tax call
You know the start of a new legislative session is approaching when think-tanks, activist groups and other organizations start making recommendations to the lawmakers.
The latest is the Austin-based think-tank Center for Public Policy Priorities which is recommending again "a Texas-style personal income tax."
"The state's current revenue system is not providing adequate funding" to meet its needs, the Center wrote in the introduction of a detailed analysis written by senior researcher Dick Lavine. "Adding a personal state income tax to our mix is the best way to meet our needs."
However, as long as Isett, Sen. Robert Duncan, R-Lubbock, and Rep. Warren Chisum, R-Pampa, chair or sit on powerful committees such as Appropriations or the Senate Finance Committee, it's not going to happen.
Isett recently joked that he and other fiscal conservatives in the Legislature created the full-time position for Lavine because for as long as they can remember he has advocated a state income tax and the lawmakers keep saying no.
So far, Sen. Eliot Shapleigh, D-El Paso, and Rep. Eddie Rodriguez, D-Austin, are the only legislators who have publicly supported such a proposal.

Medication errors occur commonly in healthcare facilities resulting in adverse drug events. These types of errors and their consequences have been previously observed and studied and it has been shown that simple tracking systems can help to significantly decrease occurrences and consequences of such events. We have found a need for similar monitoring for drugs that have just entered the market and whose potential adverse events are not yet known. Current techniques for post-approval monitoring are not adequate for timely discovery of as-of-yet unknown adverse events. FDA's current approach to identifying drugs with serious adverse effects, the MedWatch system, is inherently slow to identify the culprit drugs and to remove them from the market. Between 1997 and 2005, the system was successful in helping to identify 15 drugs with toxic side-effects. However, on average, it took 5.9 years for the identification phase and the subsequent phase for the removal from of the drug from the market. We propose a system that could help reduce this time by a significant amount. The proposed approach involves a simple on-line surveying system coupled with continuous monitoring by participating pharmacists. We have developed a concept demonstration prototype system and provide recommendations for further work related to the scalability, security, and data consistency aspects of our approach. In addition, we analyze how advances in semantic web and ontology development could be used to populate the database of the proposed system.

Broadway star Idina Menzel whetted the appetite of Glee fans when she appeared on the hit show earlier this season, but her brief guest spot -… playing the leader of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline … - raised more questions than answers.
"There is much more to her than has been revealed in the first episode that I was in," the actress, who made out with recording artist Matthew Morrison's character Will Schuester, tells E! Online. "I will say that her intentions are not quite evil. She's going to unravel more and show a different side to her personality."
Whether she's planning to sabotage the McKinley High glee club or to romance Mr. Schuester, the bigger question is: What is her relationship to influential person Lea Michele, who has a striking resemblance to Menzel?
For months fans have speculated that Menzel will play Michele's biological mother, a character who has so far been absent from the show.
"Maybe I'm going to be Lea's lesbian lover," Menzel jokes. "You never know!" However, she adds, "That would probably be really inappropriate because she's playing a character who is 16."
In fact, Menzel says the writers have created a "nice resolution for my character at the end of the season," but she could still be back for more.
"I don't fall into a hole and break every bone in my body or something," she says. "I don't know if I'll be back. I would certainly love to and they have discussed it." --Marla Lehner
