Many people make the mistake of believing that health can be found in the form of a pill. There are seemingly limitless selections of vitamin and mineral supplements available on store shelves these days. A trip to the drug store vitamin aisle can leave shoppers longing for assistance with selecting a simple painkiller. With such a wide selection, it is hard to know which supplements are best and which leave something to be desired.

I put together an SEC Power Ranking and the debate that was generated from one statement got me thinking. I wrote that the retirement of Urban Meyer left Nick Saban alone as the best coach in the SEC.
In this ranking, I endeavor to objectively rank the top coaches in the SEC. I graded each coach according to four categories: winning percentage, bowl wins, championships (SEC and National) and my own personal ranking.
With my personal ranking ("Pat's Ranking"), I came from the perspective of an AD, with unlimited resources, in charge of putting together the best football program possible starting with hiring one of the coaches in the SEC. It is a ridiculous scenario, I agree, but it was my attempt to objectify my subjectivity.
Each coach is listed along with his grade (on a 100 point scale).

• To determine the impact of intraoperative autotransfusion on vascular surgical care, data related to 304 major vascular surgical operations performed over a 42-month period were retrospectively analyzed. Procedures included abdominal aortic aneurysmectomy (N 152), aortobilateral femoral bypass (N = 64), thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysmectomy (N = 20), and other vascular procedures (N = 68). Fifty percent of the transfusion requirement was met by autotransfusion for the average patient. The per patient average volumes (liters) autotransfused were as follows: elective abdominal aortic aneurysmectomy, 0.87 L and nonelective, 1.45 L; elective aortobilateral femoral bypass, 0.63 L; elective thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysmectomy, 2.47 L, and nonelective, 2.15 L; and elective other, 0.53 L and nonelective, 1.30 L. Results of immediate postoperative and hospital discharge hemoglobin, hematocrit, and coagulation studies (prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, and platelets) did not differ from results of preoperative studies in any group. Neither mortality nor morbidity was related to intraoperative autotransfusion. These data suggest that intraoperative autotransfusion is a safe blood replacement method during major vascular surgical operations.

Middle-Class Angst and Mosh-Pit Love
Dear Mexican,
Why is it that many first-generation Latino students are so quick to judge and alienate second-generation students just because their parents went to college and are able to afford a little more? This happened to me recently. People treat me differently and think I will look down on them, yet I grew up in the barrio and never acted like I was higher than them. The only difference with my life is that my parents went to college to give me a better life...why does that have to affect how I'm treated amongst other Latinos?

I turn the columna over to Jody Agius Vallejo, sociology professor at the University of Southern California and author of the magnificent Barrios to Burbs: The Making of the Mexican-American Middle Class, for which your humble Mexican wrote the intro. Take it, profe! "Many first-generation Latinos (meaning that they are foreign born) are quick to judge some second-generation Latinos like you because they themselves are constantly judged by middle-class Latinos. Most people mistakenly assume that Latinos exhibit ethnic solidarity and that everyone gets along. However, the Latino population is not monolithic, and divisions exist depending on national origin, generation, and whether you are upper-, middle- or lower-class. These divisions are exacerbated by American society (especially the media and racist politicians), which homogenizes and stigmatizes Latinos by portraying them as uniformly poor, unauthorized, and uneducated.
"Despite these stereotypes, there is an established, and growing, Latino middle class. But middle-class Latinos must deal with these disparaging stereotypes in their everyday lives, especially when they are mistaken for unauthorized immigrants or when people assume that they are uneducated simply because they are Latino. Thus, middle-class Latinos, especially those who are disconnected from the immigrant struggle for upward mobility because they were raised in middle-class households by college educated parents, often attempt to distance themselves from immigrants as a way to deflect discrimination. This distancing behavior is nothing new and is seen among all immigrant groups, past and present, and is indicative of the American assimilation story. So, I suspect that some first-generation Latino students anticipate that you will look down on them and they thus snub you before you can (in their imagination) snub them."
The Mexican's advice? Tell the haters que se vayan a la chingada. And now you know why Vallejo is an acclaimed professor, while the Mexican teaches at the College of the Calles.
Dear Mexican,
I recently went to a heavy metal show for a band from Spain called Mago de Oz. The show was at the LA Sports Arena, and the two opening acts were local Mexican heavy metal bands, so needless to say the majority of fans at this show were Mexican metal heads. I work in the music biz and thus I go to my fair share of both Anglo and Latino concerts/shows on a regular basis. One thing I notice is the mosh pits at hard rock, metal, punk, ska, and similar kinds of shows. It looks like in any Anglo mosh pit, the fans are literally trying to kill one another, often times leaving people severely injured. But Mexican/Latino mosh pits seem to be composed of fans locking arms, dancing with one another, and no-man-left-behind kind of attitude. Can you explain why so much brotherly love in the mosh pit when in the outside world it seems like Latinos love to bash and cut down their fellow paisas?
El Vampiro
Dear Vampire Gabacho,
Not necessarily true — go to a concert by Brujería, the most hardcore metal group of all time, authors of the single greatest stanza in history ("Matando güeros/Ricky Ramirez style" — "Killing white people/Richard "The Nightstalker" Ramirez style". Even Gerwshin couldn't come up with something that beautiful!) and see what part of your spleen hasn't been absorbed by your appendix.

Coaches want receivers to join block party
Madison — If you were inside Camp Randall Stadium on Saturday afternoon, you heard the words of DelVaughn Alexander booming through the mostly empty stands:
"That's a touchdown, David."
Alexander, the University of Wisconsin's wide receivers coach, was venting from the sideline after seeing junior wideout David Gilreath miss a downfield block against strong safety Kevin Claxton.
The result was that Claxton, the last defender between Zach Brown and the end zone, limited the junior tailback to a 12-yard gain to the defense's 29-yard line. Brown eventually capped the drive with a 1-yard run, but that wasn't the point.
UW's wide receivers did not excel at run blocking in 2008, in part because of youth and in part because of their lack of size/strength.
"It comes with time," Alexander said of the ability to block downfield for the running backs. "We work on it every day. Being physical and being tough."
According to coach Bret Bielema, junior Isaac Anderson (5-foot-10 and 177 pounds) is probably the most tenacious run-blocker among the wide receivers.
Sophomore Nick Toon (6-3, 212) is improving, though he was held out of the scrimmage so he could rest a quadriceps injury. Kyle Jefferson (6-4, 184), who was also held out of the scrimmage, needs work, as does Gilreath (5-11, 170).
"David, just because of his body size, he is kind of a get-in-the-way guy," Bielema said. "But he is straining.
"I think they understand the importance."
Alexander did his best on Saturday to reiterate the importance of downfield blocking.
Extra-points: Redshirt freshman defensive end Brendan Kelly remains out with a groin injury. Kelly, expected to be one of the top four ends, suffered the injury in July and aggravated it last week in camp . . .
Freshman wide receiver Kraig Appleton wowed the staff during the first week of camp but then missed several days because of a hamstring injury. He had one catch for 6 yards and one drop in the scrimmage. "Honestly I think right now he is feeling his way back into it," offensive coordinator Paul Chryst said. "There's a couple times when he is going the wrong way. That happens. And every guy has gone through that. "He just needs to continue to work." . . .
Two freshmen have been added to the camp roster, both defensive backs. They are: Sean Kennedy (6-2, 180), from Wisconsin Lutheran High School, and Darius Feaster (5-11, 190) from Homestead High School . . .
After participating in the annual Family Fun Day, the players are scheduled to practice twice on Monday.

Ragweed Allergy Overview
Ragweed, which started as a North American plant, has spread nearly everywhere on the planet. Ragweed creates and releases tremendous amounts of pollen, a fine dust composed of the plant's male DNA. Each plant can release as much as one billion grains into the atmosphere!
Ragweed pollen is very light and disseminates by winds, which allows it to travel great distances.
Unfortunately, ragweed pollen, released in early autumn or late summer (August to mid October), triggers hay fever for 20% of the population.
Ragweed pollen causes the following symptoms:
- Nasal congestion
- Sneezing, sniffing
- Itchy, red eyes
- Puffing under the eyes
- Itchy throat
- Asthma trigger
- Hives
- Skin irritations (rashes, large welts, spots)
- Possible sinus inflammation
How to Avoid Ragweed Pollen
Complete avoidance may not be possible, but taking the following precautions can restrict exposure:
- Keep windows shut – use a HEPA filter with central air-conditioning, which not only creates a comfortable, cool environment but also serves to remove pollen from the air.
- Remain indoors when pollen count is high – counts are reported in the media and online. The counts are lower on days with rain, cold, no wind and both early mornings and late afternoons. (Before 10 am and after 4 pm.)
- Use a dryer for clothes – pollen can cling to the laundry hung outside.
- Bathe when entering your home – since pollen can adhere to clothing and skin, change clothes and wash hands. Shower to eliminate pollen from hair
- Use a nasal irrigator – rinse nose with a salt-water solution from a Neti pot.
Foods to Avoid
Certain foods may act as a trigger for ragweed allergy reactions and should be avoided:
- Melons (e.g. cantaloupe)
- Bananas
- Zucchini
- Cucumber
- Artichoke
- Herbal teas (Echinacea, hibiscus, chamomile)
Also avoid artificial sweeteners and pesticides. (This may include Genetically Modified foods).Show All

GOODWELL, Okla. - Despite returning eight lettermen from last season's squad, head basketball coach Rick Cooper couldn't say Thursday who would be in the West Texas A&M starting lineup for tonight's season opener.
The Buffs play another veteran NCAA Division II basketball team in the Southwest Baptist (Mo.) Bearcats at 6 p.m. in the opening game of the Aggie Tipoff Classic.
Host Oklahoma Panhandle State will play Lubbock Christian in tonight's second game at 8 p.m.
On Saturday, WT will play Lubbock Christian at 6 p.m. and Southwest Baptist will play Panhandle State at 8.
"I've got to decide at point guard between David (Rhone) or Rod (Prater), and I'm not sure on our interior players," Cooper said. "We'll play it by ear.
"I'm hoping this is a good thing to have several players capable of starting. I hope it doesn't mean we've average. To me, it's not who starts as much as what eight or nine players are contributing and playing. I envision eight or nine - and those could be any of the 12 players we have on a given night - helping us win."
The Buffs' major returnees from last season's 16-10 team include guards Rhone and Kenny White, forwards Matt Madison and Arendijus Mejeras, and posts Kyle Caldwell and Reggie Harris. Forward Chris Bracey, who missed most of last season with a broken leg, was cleared this week to play.
Cooper figures to mix his returnees with newcomers Prater and Eduardo Caviglia at guard and Carlos Silva at post.
"We're really looking for some consistency," Cooper said. "We'd like to know what we can expect from each player - that's what you're trying to answer in these early games."
Southwest Baptist returns nine lettermen and four starters from last season's 15-12 team. The Bearcats are led by guards Ryan Stock and David Coutchie, forward B.J. Hogue and freshman center Arthur Trousdell.
The 6-foot-4 Stock averaged 11.4 points and 5.7 rebounds per game last season while the 6-8 Trousdell scored 18 points in a recent exhibition game.

Democratic U.S. Senate hopeful Conner Eldridge criticized Republican Sen. John Boozman Wednesday for opposing an effort to prevent terrorists from buying guns, saying an alternative measure backed by the Arkansas lawmaker doesn't go far enough.
Speaking to the Political Animals Club, Eldridge said he supports a proposal by Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein that would let the federal government block many gun sales to known or suspected terrorists. Boozman opposed that measure and supported a competing proposal that would have delayed a gun sale to a suspected terrorist for 72 hours, but require prosecutors to go to court to show probable cause to block the sale permanently.

USF QB White, Taggart Take Team To Houston
Source: Joey Johnston, Tampa Tribune
HOUSTON ? University of South Florida coach Willie Taggart has been to Houston many times for recruiting. The last trip, he believes, was during his days as a Stanford University assistant, a home visit with quarterback prospect Andrew Luck.
That must seem like eons ago.
What a concept: Having a dynamic quarterback capable of producing touchdowns with a flick of his wrist.
Tonight, Taggart brings the offensively challenged USF Bulls (2-5, 2-1 American Athletic Conference) to Reliant Stadium for a matchup against the Houston Cougars (6-1, 3-0). USF hasn?t scored an offensive touchdown in 12 straight quarters and only has six, a national low, all season.
?For us, we?d love to have Andrew Luck, but we?re just looking for a little luck,?? Taggart said. ?We?d like to get there. Just a little bit. Not the whole Andrew, but just a little bit.??

Publisher's Description
The story of the Deluge - or the Global Flood of Noah - permeates nearly every culture in the world in some way, shape, or form. While details vary between the different cultures, the same basic elements, occur in all versions. In "Flood Legends" you will discover:
- Detailed analysis of myth, legend, and historical details that are clues for a common, global event
- Unique research from a comparative study supporting the biblical history
Despite the striking similarities of these accounts, some mythologists have looked at the minor differences in the stories and declared: "This never happened!"
There is another alternative - to accept that the different versions all refer to the same event - passed on from generation to generation, through various developing cultures. Through these legends, this epic event has remained woven into the tapestry of cultural history - sharing not just the story of survival, but the power of obedience, and the fulfillment of God's enduring promise.
Author Bio
Charles Martin explores flood mythology from around the world and presents a compelling argument for it by pointing to clues of a global flood event. He received his B.A. in Comparative Literature from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He and his wife live in Richmond, VA.

Happy, Happy, Happy: My Life and Legacy as the Duck Commanderby Mark Schlabach Phil Robertson
This no-holds-barred autobiography chronicles the remarkable life of Phil Robertson, the original Duck Commander and Duck Dynasty star, from early childhood through the founding of a family business.Life was always getting in the way of Phil Robertson's passion for duck hunting. An NFL-bound quarterback, Phil made his mark on Louisiana Tech University in the 1960s by playing football and completing his college career with a master's degree in English. But Phil's eyes were not always on the books or the ball; they were usually looking to the sky. Phil grew up with the dream of living the simple life off the land like his forebears, but he soon found himself on a path to self-destruction--leasing a bar, drinking too much, fighting, and wasting his talents. He almost lost it all until he gave his life to God. And then everything changed. Phil's incredible story tells how he followed a calling from God and soon after invented a duck call that would begin an incredible journey to the life he had always dreamed of for himself and his family. With great love for his country, his family, and his maker, Phil has finally found the ingredients to the "good life" he always wanted.

My parents made me go see him after I was having some problems, and while I don't think he is a bad person, he wasn't a good doctor. i tried nearly 6 antidepressants in I'd say 4 months of seeing him. Also I dreaded the sessions because I just never felt comfortable opening up and my instinct was right because he would literally talk about himself and his life for nearly all of the appointment.
Dr. Schwied literally saved my life. My son died suddenly and on a moments notice Dr. Schwied was there to treat me and put me in his immediate care. I could not have gotten through the worst time in my life without him. Thank you E.
DR. Schwied is a great Psychiatrist I missed my first appointment, I called him later that day with an emergency due to a very close friend passing. I left a message and was called the next morning and Dr. Schwied made time for me without knowing me or if I would even keep my appointment and was still able to get to know me and do a proper analysis based on his skill and knowledge he is very easy to talk to and can read you and understand right away. There is no way you could say anything bad about this doctor he makes you feel like a human being not just another patient to deal with he really gets to know you and asks the right questions. I plan on going back and would recommend him to anyone that likes a Psychiatrist to actualy listen and get to know you so they may be given experienced Psychiatric care.
Dr. Schwied is a very nice man. I had to stop having him as a doctor though, I feel as he must have narcolepsy or something! He often started dozing off during sessions, I've never had anything like that happen to me, it was odd and I didn't even know what to say. I thought he was great until he started doing that. And I also noticed when coming to talk about my medications I always felt like I was pulling teeth, he would always say well what do you want to do? Well, I don't know, you're the psychiatrist, that's why I come here. I don't know enough about other medications. But honestly have a psychiatrist that is going to fall asleep on me isn't acceptable. He is a very nice man, and at times I felt I had finally found a good psychiatrist here in CA, but then he started falling asleep..
I agree with both the boundary issues comments as well as over prescribing meds -- just keep adding more if what you have isn't working. That is, if his records are organized enough to know that you're actually taking. Even more unnerving is the occasional lapse of patient confidentially. It may be occasional, but creates big problems.
I would never recommend Dr. Schwied. He has boundary issues.
Dr Schwied is a brilliant man. He has a very caring nature. He is a remarkable businessman and medical doctor. I have know him for 13 years. He singlehandedly kept me against my will from several suicide attempts. I highly recommend him to anyone who wishes to make an appointment and walk through his office door. You will not be sorry.
Dr. Schwied is a very outgoing, charming man. However, he has a serious problem with keeping his personal life/problems to himself. He involves his patients in his personal life, even revealing details about his sex life. While he seems to care deeply about his patients, he really uses them for his meet his own needs. I would not recommend getting sucked into such an arrangement.
Whomever this man is, he needs to have his medical license revoked. He is a nutjob. He clearly mis-diagnosed me and four other friends. Four other friends! We all had to go elsewhere, I wish I could have my money back. Watch out for this scam artist.
Ellis Schwied is pretty unprofessional and thats being kind. He's one of those Pdcos that will just throw pills at you, not even 'faking' to care about your problems.Save $250 find another pdoc thank me later.
I would absolutley refer anyone including family mambers to Dr Schwied. He is an excellent doctor who gives wise advise, and is very educated in his profession. Myself and two other associates of mine see him and we all agree he is a keeper; as it is so hard to find someone you can actually "Get Real" with someone who cares.

Congress must probe what went wrong: Sudhakaran
By Express News Service - KOCHI
Published: 13th September 2013 08:37 AM
Last Updated: 13th September 2013 08:37 AM
Coming down heavily on the police in T P Chandrasekharan murder probe, K Sudhakaran MP has said the Congress should seriously cross-check what went wrong in the probe.
Stating that it is part of 'give and take' politics, Sudhakaran demanded a re-investigation into the murder case by the CBI. Terming it as a setback, Sudhakaran said the verdict in the case was demoralising. "Those who killed are being brought before the law; but those who ordered the killing are not being booked. Earlier when the probe began, people had a belief that those who were behind the killing would be brought before the law. Now there is no such hope," he said.
On whether there was anything wrong with the prosecution, Sudhakaran said the prosecution can act only on the evidence collected by the police. "The lower court verdict is like a base. Any appeal can work only on that base," he said while answering a query on the possibility of going for an appeal against the court decision acquitting 20 persons, including CPM leaders, in the case.
The 'I' Group leader said the police made a mistake in the way witnesses were chosen."It is for the first time that an investigation was done in two phases," Sudhakaran said.
"The KPCC should seriously look into what went wrong in the probe," he pointed out.

text: Review Content Awesome quality, built to last. My wife loves it. It is simply the best Ive found. Great lighting! Love the look of the mirror. The lighting is perfect & the side views are a added advantage. Great mirror. First one came in broken but it was replaced at no charge. I like the mirror very much. My husband and I use it daily. Not what I was looking for Too large for amount of counter space in bathroom. Needs work Was very disappointed. Fantastic Mirror this mirror shows it all! you can see everything! and that can be a good thing when you are fixing your face. also, the side mirrors let you have a regular view at the same time. I love it and you will too! Nice and Bright Magnifcation to much Well made and bright light made it easy to use. Unfortunately for me the magnification was just to much. I returned the product. My wife loved it! My wife loved that it could fold up so that it fit under the counter. The 10x magnifying she said was almost too much as she could now see every pore! Absolutely Perfect initially I was a little scared because it was a 10x magnification & Im 50 plus...and was not so sure I wanted to known exactly what I looked like at 10x...now I absolutely love it. I just needed to get a little closer to the magnified side. I can now put on my makeup...without glasses and look well...dont hesitate to buy it...great product...does exactly what it is supposed to do... This is the best make up mirror ever ! This mirror is outstanding . The fold out side mirrors are a great help in applying makeup . The lighting levels are many and this is a very nice feature . I would buy this makeup mirror again . Very nice I am thinking of buying another one for my lake home. This mirror is FANTASTIC This is an item every woman needs Great mirror but poor light. I love the mobility of the mirrors but was disappointed in how quickly the round light needed to be changed. The hard part was getting the old light out and the new one in without causing damage to the mirrors. Couldnt do it: broke the side mirrow and the rotation doesnt work well, now. Dont know how I could do it any better in the future. great product great design. the lighting really replicates true daylight. first one arrived cracked but sharperimage replaced it at no charge. Love the Mirror I am so happy with the mirror. I had my choice of a number of them, but this one fit all my needs. I would buy this again Perfect light, Great Quality This surpassed my expectations! Innovative design I have been searching for a new "makeup" mirror for some time now. It had to be 2-sided, tall enough and large enough with one side a 10X magnification. Love this design-especially the fact that the height can be raised. The mirror part is a good size too (most mirrors are not large enough to see yourself). Exctly what my wife wanted; Im a hero! My wife wanted this to apply her makeup. We participate in ballroom dancing and she needs special make up for our shows. This mirror gives her the lighting and magnification she needs for her show makeup. She also uses it for her more subtle makeup needs. A perfect combination. Arrived cracked Very nice mirror. Just what the wife had been asking for.Side mirrors a big plus. Will be getting another to replace the one that arrived cracked.Wife cant wait. Best Mirror Ever! My wife has had many lighted makeup mirrors over the years. This is the finest mirror she has ever used. Its size is perfect. The mirrors adjust to her height and position. The light is adjustable and is bright enough for all uses. This mirror is wonderful!!I Love this mirror,, can now see to apply makeup. I am visually impaired and this lets me see 100% better. Excellent Mirror This is a great product for the price very bright lighting very large mirror you can view your whole profile with this mirror Classy look for a makeup area The side panels are regular mirrors, the large one in the middle is 1X magnified and the flip side of it is 10X magnified which is awesome for putting in contacts, plucking eyebrows or curling eyelashes, esp if you wear glasses but cannot while putting on makeup. I wish it came in black, but the brushed chrome is nice too and looks nice sitting in the middle of my makeup vanity. A touch light control would be nice as well, for the times that your hands are full and you need to turn the light up. LOVE THIS MIRROR I will never be able to put on make-up again without this mirror! The side views really help apply make-up perfectly. I hope they decide to make a travel size mirror like this. Great product. My wife and Daughter are models and this product will be a great asset LOVE this mirror! Great lighting too. LOVE this mirror! The lighting is great and I it looks beautiful when the sides are closed up when not in use. Great mirror. I use it every day and it works great on magnification for plucking eyebrows. It works great on regular viewing, for applying make-up. The only thing is its too heavy for travel. Great mirror! This mirror really magnifies. Its cast a great light. Heavy weight and well made. Looks very pretty on my dressing table. Great idea This is a great looking mirror, however the 15x side is so distorted it is unusable. So disappointed to have to send it back. Excellent Product The height adjustment flexibility is wonderful The I sit at a desk instead of a vanity, and was searching for an adjustable height mirror that folds down to go under a shelf when not in use, this is it ! The lighting is the best I have ever had on a mirror and I love having the side mirrors to check my makeup where it is normally impossible to see. I cant believe I found everything I need in one very nice, quality mirror. Non extensible support, too short! Nicely made, but stem is not extensible, way too short. Have to bend over at the bathroom counter to use. Might be ok at a sit down type vanity or a desk, not good for stand up type counter in a bathroom. Loved it! My wife had been looking for something like this for quite a while so I purchased this for her. She loved it! Her only complaint was that it works so well she lost track of time using it one morning and was late to work. Finally! This is the best makeup mirror Ive ever had. I can finally see without my glasses to put on makeup and pluck eyebrows. The light is adjustable in intensity and the side mirrors help me see from all angles. It sits a little tall on my dressing table, but is just what I needed. I will buy this for gifts Use this mirror every day to apply make-up and plunk those invisible hairs on face "You lookin at me?" I use the product every day; love the fact that I can see how my makeup looks front and sides at one time. Love the light setting that goes from soft day to high flourescent. Fantastic Quality Came well packaged and was actually as nice as in the photos on the site which is rare. I bought this for my wife as a Christmas present as her old make up mirror had seen better days. After setting it up she loves it and uses it often. Do it The mirror matched the catalog description well. It is a great low profile design, allowing multiple choices for viewing. Im very pleased. Love it! I like it all; the design, elegance, love the side view mirrors to see my profile, the 10X and 1X magnification, the dimmer control, and best of all - the fluorescent light true to sun light to catch any flaws, stray hairs, dirty pores, debris in eyes, etc. The side mirrors close and protect from dust while looking great. Very happy with purchase, no problems so far. Terrific This seems to be a well thought out mirror with very good lighting and the side mirrors provide a good view of profile. The added outlet on the base is a great feature.

MONTPELIER — Gov. Peter Shumlin and the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department are making 405 hunters happy as they conduct the state's annual lottery drawing for moose hunting permits.
The drawing happens Thursday at the Statehouse. Officials will pick 355 people to win regular season permits and 50 permits for archery season. Participants paid $10 or $25 for a chance to win, depending on residency, and winners must purchase permits for either $100 or $350.
Those who don't win Thursday have another chance to snag a permit. The state also will auction off five additional permits by Aug. 21.

I loved walking in daddy's boots,
just to trample where he had been;
to track the path of prior roots
and then return them once again.
Some boots were old and some were new;
I loved walking in daddy's boots.
I could have used any old shoe
but wasn't fond of substitutes…
Grimy ones had great attributes,
they worked real hard to get that way.
I loved walking in daddy's boots;
used for battlefield - bailing hay.
Daddy didn't mind me wearing
if he could use them for commutes
and I didn't at all mind sharing;
I loved walking in daddy's boots…

Audubon State Park has a lot to offer: camping, cabins, lake, golf course, and the museum. The campground, however, shows wear. It's a small campground, crammed next to a busy highway at the park's entrance. Many sites were deeply shaded and had paved pads, but the pads weren't very wide and some are quite short. Companion vehicle parking is available with some sites on a separate paved pad. Not sure that detail is noted on the reservation form, so it might be best to call. One bath house present and a small, one-hole dump station. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, departed late Monday morning and never saw a host to check us in. There might have been camp wifi, but we didn't have the code. We paid for our night via the after hours drop box.
Parking at the museum is limited, but it's a short walk from the campground. Interior roads are quite narrow, so it'd be best to drive a tow around the park. We used this campground as an overnight stop because we had a favorable impression when we stayed at the cabins 10 years ago. Now I'm not so sure I'd return again with an RV due to the cramped and noisy conditions and overall wear of the property. - Flying Mantis

Audubon State Park is a little funky in its location: the park is located on US 41 in Henderson, but when you pull in, you go from city to wilderness in about 100 yards. The gal at the check-in gate allowed us to check in early. Sites are crowded together pretty close. Our site, number 5, had electricity and water, but the spigot and electric box were located about 40 feet from the camper. Shower houses were dated and in need of a little cleanup. Could've been because it was Sunday morning, but showers were a bit dirty. I think this state park would be one that would appeal to those who want the "away from it all" experience, yet want city amenities like restaurants and night life. Ellis Park is located 3 miles north of the state park for Horse racing fans. - Prairie Bayou

Very nice city park. Good trees, good sites, if a little confusing, good grass and a good location. - Oldtymeflyr

Have to go to Evansville for work periodically, and decided to bring trailer. Burdette Park was one of very few campgrounds close enough to my work. I had problems getting to park--roads are tight. Once there, no one was at campground entrance to check in with--I'd called and made reservations. Was told to find someone in Site 17. Once I did, she said to park in any of the sites in the first two rows--all were just water and electric. The full hookup sites are taken up with what seems like more seasonal or monthly campers. It's a bit tight going past them, as a lot of them have large trucks parked near the road.
All sites are pull-through. Had 50 amp for my site. Water up a slight hill to share with site above me. Some tent campers in primitive sites. Lots of large fifth wheels and several big motorhomes there as well.
Pretty quiet at night. Lots of crickets and frogs. Can hear trains through the night, as there are tracks nearby. Some noise in morning as people get up and go to work. I spent 4 nights there. Never used shower house, so no idea what it's like. Dump station on exit seems very tight, so didn't try it.
One odd thing, was that I'd never paid. So, morning of my departure, I had to hunt down the woman in Site 17. She said to use a credit card I'd have to go to main building of park--but I was already hooked up and had pulled out of site. I ended up giving her some cash--what I had, and certainly not enough for entire stay. She was very nonchalant about the whole transaction. - drdit92

Large, level places on a forested terrace camping, nice & easy hikes, good facilities and friendly staff make this a great campsite. - Eisenga

There are a couple of tight turns if you have a huge rig but the place had 30-40 footers in there. We've been to 47 states and this park is in the top 10. Great job State of Indiana for a wonderful park. Love the walking path. - lilkoala

I was very disappointed in this campground. We arrived to find that the waterfall was broken. The arcade games were not operational. We decided immediately to stay only one night. The manager seemed to be watching, and complaining about everything we did. Everything from having our 4 pound dog with us to having our golf cart there. He also rudely informed us that the campground was mainly used for construction workers who camp there by the week or month. In my opinion, they should state that on their website, instead of listing it as a peaceful, family campground. There was also a ditch full of stagnate water right behind our campsite. We will not return! - KellyF

For the money, we expected more in the way of amenities, including a level site. Finding where to pay was a problem as well, and the office had to be open. No hosts on site. On the good side, there was lots of room for walking, bike riding, and flying the model airplanes. - BeagleMama

There are not many choices in the area and we arrive at this campground late. We could not find the RV park office to check in. A permanent camper helped us locate a campsite. The entire park is gravel. RVs were tight side by side. There was an area with trees, our campsite was bare. We heard the nearby train horn all through the night. The next morning we had to search for the RV park office; it is not conveniently located. We had two RVs; one was a motorhome. - sc river ratz

Diamond Lake is a beautiful campground with big fishing lakes , pools , giant water slides , awesome restraunt, minature golf ,bridges to feed the koi off of, sites were small and tight and the roads are narrow which was a nightmare to navigate with all the curves and turns we were 40 ft with tow , there sites are needing upgrade to accomadate big rigs. - V F Coffman

Park grounds are pretty. Sites are tight. If you book here, make sure to ask for sites with W/E/S all on same same side and grouped together. Our sewer and water was at front right of site and we needed 40 feet of hose to connect. It was a busy weekend and we couldn't be moved to another site. Desk personnel indicated it was our fault for not booking a different site but did offer to sell us additional sewer hose. We went to Walmart instead. - Merry Camper

You may need an extra long hose to hook up to water. No trash cans nearby to campsite. Easy to get to, just don't rely on GPS. GPS will take you on a roundabout route. Just stay on KY 56 until you get to KY 815. Ignore instructions to take KY 279! Lots of permanent and seasonal campers. Stay for 6 nights and 7th night free. - sailor323

This is a county park about 10 miles from town with good roads all the way, a popular fishing spot. There's an on-site manager, many seasonals, but most sites are well kept. They have a 1.5 mile walking trail, which we did not try. There are also a few cabins. Dump stations and bath houses are convenient and the campground was quiet when we were there. We were able to get a Verizon signal, but could not get a Dish signal on our site due to tall pine trees, but others had dishes set up that evidently worked. The sites are grass and gravel. This campground is not fancy, but very adequate and pleasant if you are visiting the area, the only one we could find. - User1392

There are not very many campgrounds/RV parks in this area close to I-64. We were travelling on a weekend and all the county and state parks in the area were full. This campground does not take reservations and is strictly first come first serve. It is an old campground that from the building construction may have been a KOA. The mini golf and play ground have seen better days. Most of the sites were grass, but some appeared to have a gravel base in the past. The grounds were clean and the grass mowed. The attendant was friendly and very helpful. The full hookup sites appeared to be fairly level side to side. Most of the water and electric sites were not. Many of the sites were too short for us to stay hooked up at 56' in length. Most of the full hookup sites were occupied by long term stays working in the area. Our water and electric site had a 30 amp RV receptacle but only a 25 amp breaker. The $40.00 a night was high for an overnight but did include what appeared to be a 10% lodging/sales tax tax. - trailertraveler

For once, I agree completely with the previous reviewer. The information contained in this review is very accurate and I can only restate it. I add that we also stayed in one of the few pullthus in the park and it was a very long way to the restrooms. I suggest if you want a pull-through so you don't have to disconnect the tow vehicle, call ahead to reserve the site as they have very few of this type. The park is located in a very rural area (reclaimed coal mine), is quiet but located not too far from the interstate highway. Really, this is the kind of quiet park in a beautiful setting where we would enjoy staying for much more than the overnight stop that we did. Recommended. Big rigs will have no problem here. - busguy

A small, wooded, public park. My site was in the open. Some longer term guests were evident. Staff at the front desk were friendly. Flat gravel sites, I had to back into site #26 but thank heavens the site in front was open so I went in and back in straight. Good AT&T and Verizon signal, no wifi. - RVStudent

Gorgeous place to spend summer days and nights. We stayed for a week at a time during our travels, and both times our campsite hadn't been cleaned. The last time there were hot coals in the pit, so starting a campfire was easy, at least. Special note, the mowers sprayed our coach on the way past. We pointed out the new chips, and all the guy could do was shrug his shoulders and apologize. This carelessness really upset us. - BeagleMama

GREAT CAMPGROUND! Nice area, fun petting zoo and great staff. Many of the 50amp sites are not level, but most are. Woods are beautiful, park is full of friendly people and the facilities are practically perfect. Great for a few days of quiet fun with your family. Will definitely visit again. - TaShoulders

Hello! Welcome to my shop :)
I am a mom to two little boys who keep me (happily) busy and far, far away from my sewing machine on most days ;)
I am a self-taught seamstress and so I have no doubt picked up some unconventional ways of stitching garments together. Maybe this makes my patterns and tutorials a little interesting and perhaps a little inspiring?
About a bigillion years ago (okay, more like 8 years ago ;) ) I took a pattern drafting course. I loved it, but did nothing with the skills I learned until now.
I love when the inside of a garment is as pretty as the outside. All of my patterns and tutorials include seam finishes. And best of all: no serger required! All of my patterns can be made using a regular sewing machine and with no fancy feet. Woohoo!
Oh, and I love top-stitching...
Make your own super cute skirt for your little girl with this digital pdf sewing tutorial!
This sweet little skirt is a quick and easy sew. It is a knee-length skirt with two big tucks near the bottom for a little extra cuteness. This skirt tutorial comes with an underskirt option.
Sizes included are: Child sizes 2 to 10.
Please see the listing photos for sizing and materials needed.
Please note: There are no pattern pieces included in this tutorial. All of the pieces needed to make this skirt are given in dimensions for you to cut out of fabric. This is to save you time and money. :)
Check out my website or Pinterest for more pictures of this skirt. :)
This tutorial includes:
:: step-by-step instructions on how to make this skirt with clear, coloured photos
:: photos using two sided fabric (having an right and wrong side) and the same fabric throughout the tutorial for ease of understanding
Seam finishes are included in this tutorial - and not just boring old zig-zag stitches - and no serger or fancy feet required :) The inside will be just as pretty as the outside... well, almost.
The pattern pieces can be printed on letter or A-4 sized paper.
This pattern is best suited for a beginner.
Check out supplemental tutorials for this skirt here:
Yes, you may sell the finished garment made from this pattern. I wish you all the success and happiness!

Disney drops bid to trademark "Dia de los Muertos"
An attempt by the Walt Disney Co. to trademark "Día de los Muertos" drew such a loud protest that the company has dropped its plans to trademark the name, The Los Angeles Times reports.
The company had filed an application with the U. S. Patent and Trademark Office for "Día de los Muertos," including applications pretaining to toys, cereals and jewelry, the newspaper says. That was in anticipation of a movie that Disney-Pixar is developing that features the popular Mexican holiday, a Disney spokesman said. »Read Full Blog Post(3)

In the 20 years I've been working with my current firm, we've had six IT firms managing our network. All of them started out pretty well: responsive, knowledgeable, with decent interpersonal skills. With one exception, all of them went steadily downhill after the first few years. That exception is IPSOFACTO. Now in our sixth year with IPSOFACTO, I find their service to be exactly as competent, responsive, and helpful as they were when we first became their client.

Inspiring story on coach
Finding good news on the front page is rare in today's world, so I would like to thank the Journal Sentinel for the article on Ty Stacey, who is more than a manager for the Cardinal Stritch men's basketball team ("A field house of dreams," Feb. 20). Stacey's story and demeanor are right at the top of inspirational stories that you have had.
Every coach in any sport should have their respective teams read this article. And those of us who are not on a sports team should do so also. When Lori Nickel wrote that in Stacey's eyes, "It's not just a rebound - it's the honor of being able to get that rebound. It's not just a sprint back on defense - it's the glory of being able to sprint. These guys are privileged to be out of breath." Honor. Glory. Privileged.
I know a lot of athletes "get" how blessed they are to do what they do. There are still some who don't.
We non-athletes also need to be reminded that we need to try to do the best we can with what gifts we are given. If we don't, we are cheating those who can't.

Allow Catholic priests to marry
I've never been a big fan of Pope Benedict XVI; much too tea partyish for my taste. But I do give him a lot of credit for knowing when it's time to hang up his slippers and ride off into the sunset. I think, perhaps, too many of his predecessors stayed around too long and possibly did more harm than good.
Because the opportunity doesn't come around that often, I hope the next in line will be much more attuned to the world we live in and not some medieval, irrelevant age.
For starters, allowing priests to be married. That might be easiest, since we already allow priests from other religions to convert to Catholicism, remain priests and stay married. To me, other than getting itself into this century, the biggest problem facing the Catholic Church is the shortage of priests. They're retiring or dying way faster than we can replace them.
My parish is a good example. Maybe 10 years ago, we had at least four or five priests who could say Mass. Today, we have two. What's worse, a neighboring parish lost its last priest, and so now our two have to serve two parishes including Masses, baptisms, marriages, confessions, home and hospital visits, etc. And if one takes a few well-deserved days off, the other has to do it all.
I pray that the guys in Rome will at long last wise up.

Recruit foreign teachers
Several articles in a recent issue of the Journal Sentinel spoke about the pending shortage of teachers.
No matter if Milwaukee residency is required, a much larger, looming national and regional issue remains to be solved. That is the pending retirement of tens of thousands of workers daily. One way of addressing the issue of the teacher gap is to recruit teachers from other countries, as is being considered by Milwaukee Public Schools.
In the 1970s, Australia faced the same issue and recruited tens of thousands of teachers from all over the world. As one of those teachers who taught in Australia for several years, I can attest to the fact that kids benefit greatly from having qualified teachers from many different countries teaching them. In any one day in my high school, an Australian student could be taught by teachers from Africa, Canada, China, Germany, France, the United States and Australia.
We taught them subject content, but we also presented them with a broader, more worldly opportunity to see life from differing perspectives. We all benefit from student foreign exchange programs. Why not teacher exchange programs and foreign teacher recruitment?

A needed shock by King
I read James E. Causey's Crossroads column about filmmaker Sixx King ("Wake-up call was needed, and a KKK outfit was the jolt," Feb. 17).
To say it moved me would be an understatement. I'm a Caucasian male who lives in Oak Creek. I know from various news programs and newspaper articles that black-on-black crime is rampant. But the statistics that were quoted are simply mind-boggling. If this isn't an epidemic, I don't know what is.
For a man to have to resort to such a repugnant thing as dressing up as a Ku Klux Klan member in an inner city black community just to get a point across is mind blowing in its own right. I hope that the shock value that his method has brought is the kick in the teeth that this problem needs.
I truly admire the conviction of this man. When a war that is 12 years old has as many casualties as a year in the various inner cities across this nation, I can only say, good luck, Mr. King. I wish there was something I could do or say to help. I just have no idea what.

Pet Supply Chain Sniffs Store Deals
San Francisco Business Times
Pet Food Express is finding that the recession has made real estate more pet friendly.
The San Leandro-based chain of 35 Northern California pet food stores will open a Burlingame store in a shuttered Blockbuster in August. The company is trying to complete four more deals in 2010, said Michael Levy, founder and CEO of Pet Food Express. He hopes to do up to seven more in 2011.
"We see this as an amazing growth period," Levy said.
Burlingame's is not the only failed Blockbuster that Levy wanted to go to the dogs. The company tried to take over a vacant Blockbuster on Lombard Street in San Francisco's Marina district, only to be shot down by Prop G, the city's anti-chain store ordinance.
"Certainly the video stores have opened up opportunities for us, and lots of other people," Levy said. On average, its stores are about 7,000 square feet, though Pet Food Express did open a 12,000-square-foot store in Walnut Creek in November.
Nor is Pet Food Express chary of the bigger competitors. Levy said the Antioch store is just one-third of a mile from a Petco and 100 yards from a PetSmart.
Though Levy wouldn't discuss revenue or how much the company is growing, he did say that in 2009, stores that had been open at least a year saw double-digit sales increases. The chain is profitable, and self-funds all expansion.
Vacancies caused by the recession have opened up opportunities for companies like Pet Food Express, which is intensely regional - Levy said he has no national aspirations - and knows just what market it wants.
There is, however, new competition from a big-box concept going to head-to-head with Pet Food Express.
"It hasn't gotten easier in our segment because Petco has a new format store called Unleashed, and it's directly going after our size range and our real estate strategy," said Matt Holmes of brokerage Retail West, which represents Pet Food Express.
For now, the company is sticking with the same strategy and devotion to pets and customers that it has followed since it was founded in San Francisco in 1986.
Its distribution centers are at capacity, and the company will need to expand. It's also adding trucks.
"We don't have aspirations to be national," Levy said. "Our limitations are the greater San Francisco Bay Area and our pocketbooks and being able to find the right locations."
