Well, the Vermont Principals' Association released the girls' basketball seeds this morning, and it confirmed the bad news for Middlebury, while Otter Valley, Mount Abraham and Vergennes ended up with the Nos. 6, 7 and 8 seeds, respectively, as expected.
All four teams ultimately did well enough to host first-round games, all at 7 p.m. on either Tuesday or Wednesday.
After two go-rounds, Leicester is still a wallflower at the school merger dance, having been turned down by Sudbury and most recently by Salisbury. It's time to invite Leicester's 60 students and all of the town's taxpayers to come join us at Neshobe Community School in Brandon. We certainly have the room.

As annoying as Adam Deacon was as the host of this year's MOBO awards (is he always in character or…?) I can't deny that I liked his red carpet attire.
Maybe it's the old gentleman feel it has to it, or maybe there's something about the way he's wearing a scarf instead of a tie that I like.
Men don't seem to have many options when it comes to gala events and even though Adam's wearing a suit like many other men on the red carpet, something about this looks well put together and sets him apart from everyone else.
He's also managed to make a predictable outfit choice look fashion forward with the Baroque patterned scarf and burgundy loafers, all trends for A/W 2012.
Adam did have some strong competition from other men on the red carpet who made an equal amount of effort; JLS looked extra cute in their country-inspired suits, both of Labrinth's outfits were trendy and Angel mixed smart with cool with his undone bowtie:
But the Anuvahood star won this one for me.

Sneaker News reported three Nike KD V release dates last week, and now we have word of another previously previewed pair finalizing its arrival time. Nicknamed after the earthy shade that on the KD 5's synthetic upper takes on considerably more gloss than we've seen on recent Nike SB suede releases, the 'Birch' KD V fills out with Oklahoma City Thunder accents atop a peach outsole. Stick with Sneaker News to see if Kevin Durant squeezes these in as a 'home' colorway, and be ready when these arrive at select Nike Basketball retailers on Saturday, February 9th including the Fayetteville location for Rock City Kicks.

I have the "Energy" joints. Looks like I'll be getting these too. The KDV is a great shoe to wear. It's comfortable and it doesn't have suede or an icy sole which means you can wear them in any weather.
LeBron X's, Kobe VIII's and this KD V's...ALL FUCKING LAME!!! Seriously all 3 had better shoes last year.Those Kobe's look like something my mom would pick out as nice. It sux when all we can do is hope for a CW that might make these lame shoes wearable!!!
Yet another lame KD5 c/w. Beside the Christmas joints (maybe the BHM) ain't nothing been coming with it. And ppl claim Lebron fell off with the X's???
These Closeups make me want these , these look great , real simple and really smooth

The 4 leaf barndoor set mounts directly onto the Profoto Zoom Reflector. It features springs for mounting filters and/or honeycomb grids. It blocks undesired light from the subject or the camera lens, and shapes the light output ofthe flash head, when used without the grids.
Barndoors, Snoots, Grids, and Filters are essential accessories for any lighting system. These devices alter the shape, intensity, or color of the light output from your flash heads. Consider them as a painter would a brush, or a sculptor would a knife, or chisel.
Use of a barndoor set will result in a shaft of light, when it is attached to the front of the reflector of your light source. The size of the shaft of light will be determined by the opening of the leaves, and the distance of the light from the subject. Rotating the barndoor set will determine the angle of the shaft of light. A 4-leaf barndoor provides more light control than a 2-leaf barndoor set.

Birthday – It is considered to be an occasion of celebration and joy. Family members and friends come together and wish the person well-being and bring presents. They sing, dance and do all kind of fun things together to make the occasion special. For some, birthdays are a public event with parties of grandeur, some keep it a personal occasion and there are some who want to forget about it altogether.
Birthday celebrations were not always there in our society. This all came to be with time, bit by bit from different times and cultures. There is no exact date on when such birthday celebrations become a norm. People in earlier times had no way of marking specific dates and time. Their only way of knowing was to follow the sun and moon positions. They started studying more about their positions and formed a specific pattern and marked specific dates based on their position. People also started to marks more events and a person's birthday was one of them. The earliest mention of a birthday celebration in the Bible for Pharaohs of ancient Egypt. More on wikipedia.
Many say the birthday celebrations were used as a mask against evil spirits. It was believed that the person was more vulnerable on days when there would be some life changing event, like turning a year older. So the family members would gather around him and make noise to scare away evil spirits. Even though birthdays have been celebrated for long, there aren't many records to confirm that, except those of kings or nobles. It is believed that the common man was not important enough to get his mention in the history and as such there aren't many mentions of birthday celebrations among common people. In the earlier centuries of Christianity, celebrating birthdays was considered as a pagan affiliation. It wasn't till the 4th century when the birthday of Jesus was celebrated as Christmas and marked a day for celebrations. Romans can be credited with celebrating birthdays of common men, but these affairs were small and birthdays of women were not celebrated.
Every culture has its own way of celebrating birthdays now, some try to keep it as a religious ceremony, while there are some who try to have as much fun as possible. Different traditions are followed everywhere. The birthday celebrations that we see today have mix of many cultures and times. Germans can be said to credited with the modern cake and candle celebration for birthdays. They were the first to use cakes with candles for it. A candle was added every year to mark the years passed and another was added for the year to come. Blowing of candles and making wishes was also part for their traditions.
The iconic song 'Happy Birthday to You' was not intended to be what we hear. Two sisters Patty and Mildred Hill wrote a song 'Good morning to all', but it was noticed by people when the original song was rewritten to 'Happy birthday to you' and soon become one of the most sung song which every person gets to hear on his/her birthday.
Celebrating birthdays have come a long way from being a godly affair to getting celebrated by everyone. It has become an occasion of joy and happiness.

Portable music devices like Apple Computer's iPod Nano are expected to top this year's holiday shopping lists, which market watchers say will fall into two main categories: very portable or extremely stationary.
Wish lists for gadgeteers on the go are likely to feature gizmos including MP3 players, Sony's PlayStation Portable and handsets from Motorola and Samsung. For homebodies, Microsoft's just-released Xbox 360 and high-definition televisions in either the plasma or LCD variety are expected to be hot sellers.
"There are three or four product classes out there that we've seen that are strong candidates for this holiday," said Steve Baker, an analyst with The NPD Group, which tracks retail sales of electronics. The shopping season generally gets underway big-time the day after Thanksgiving--the biggest shopping day of the year, which is also known as Black Friday.
So which tech items are most likely to come wrapped in a bow this season? See if your list matches ours.
Making a list, "iPod"-ing it twice
Apple's iPod is writing another chapter in its holiday sales success story.
"There is no question that the iPod is going to drive a huge amount of volume," Baker said. "It's priced right for gift giving. You just plug it in and use it, which is not always the case with other consumer electronic devices."
From the pencil-thin Nano (click here to read CNET's review) to the video version (click here to read CNET's review) that can carry last week's episode of "Desperate Housewives" alongside the latest hit from Destiny's Child, the iPod continues to be the most sought-after stocking stuffer and company holiday gift (note to boss: hint, hint), analysts concur. Models start at $199 for the 2GB version that holds about 500 songs.
X marks the spot
Unless you've been living under a rock for the last few weeks, you've heard about Microsoft's Xbox 360, the first of the next-generation game consoles to reach shelves. The new box is expected to be a big hit for its power, as well as its improved controls and graphics. Models range in price from $299 for the "core" model to $399 for the premium version.
Tuning in to TV choices
Flat-screen TVs topped holiday wish lists last year, and this year will see a repeat of the trend.
According to a survey of 3,780 shoppers by mall developer The Macerich Company, 14 percent of all holiday shoppers plan to purchase a plasma TV as a gift this year. But consumers won'thave an easy choice to make: There are now more than 50 plasma TV brands--and in excess of 60 LCD TV brands now on the market. While generally more expensive, LCD technology is thought to produce a higher-quality picture than plasma.
As analysts had predicted, prices have dropped dramatically on some high-end television models. Case in point: a 42-inch Maxent enhanced-definition plasma TV that BestBuy will sell for $999 starting the day after Thanksgiving.
I want my PSP
Sony's PlayStation Portable game console, which made its U.S. debut in March, is facing its first official holiday shopping season. Since it first hit the market, more than 2 million units have been sold in the U.S., according to Sony. The device (click here to read CNET's review) is sold primarily as a portable game machine, but users can also play movies and music, display digital photos and browse the Internet through its built-in wireless networking.
Phone fashion meets function Stylish multifunction phones from Nokia, Motorola and Samsung are part of an anticipated Black Friday electronics cavalcade.
Retail giant Wal-Mart is expected to sell Motorola's Razr this Thanksgiving shopping season for $88.73, according to Web site Black Friday 2005, which posts information about retail deals. Currently, the phone typically sells for $199 at various retailers. It will likely be offered through a bundle with service from Cingular.
Portable PCs for less
Retailers will celebrate this Thanksgiving season by attempting to crush competitors with low-price desktops and notebooks.
Wal-Mart newspaper inserts in mailboxes this week feature a Hewlett-Packard $398 laptop with a 2800+ Sempron processor from Advanced Micro Devices, 256MB of memory, a 40GB hard drive, a CD-RW/DVD drive and a 15-inch screen. Wal-Mart is also selling a $398 desktop with a 3000+ Sempron, 512MB of memory, a 40GB drive and a 15-inch LCD monitor.
Best Buy is countering Wal-Mart's offer by selling a Toshiba L25-S1192 laptop with an Intel Celeron M 370 processor with 256MB of memory, 40GB hard disk drive and wireless capabilities for $379.99.
CompUSA may beat them all with an offer for a Compaq Presario notebook featuring an AMD Sempron Processor 2800+ 256L2 cache 40GB hard drive for $299. Originally offered for $729.99, the discount takes effect after manufacturer and retailer rebates, as well as a 12-month subscription to AOL.
Demand for laptops is reaching record levels. IDC predicts that 12-inch ultraportables and 14-inch and 15-inch wide-screen displays will fuel 62.5 million in notebook shipments this year. That number, IDC forecasts, will climb to 114.6 million in 2009. (Click here to read CNET's portable-PC roundup.)

My daughter Mya turned 6 weeks old on Tuesday. She should be going through a growth spurt right about now, which is consistent with her more frequent nursing patterns throughout the day and especially in the evening from about 6 till 11pm. It is also consistent with her obvious growth and increasing baby fat. She is active and very alert and focused. My concern is with her latenight feeding patterns and her pooping patterns of the past week:
First, Feeding: She has continued to fuss at her normal nighttime feeding times with one or two exceptions where she has actually slept right thru a feeding time. (I never wait for her to fully cry, she eats much better if fed before she has a chance to get upset) And I still get her up and check/change her diaper to get her a little more awake and let her know I'll be feeding her momentarily. However, at her normal 2am and 4 am feedings she has latched and gone immediately back to sleep without taking more than a sip. Then, also, her 6 am feeding has been much shorter than usual. She has fewer wet diapers in the late night now too. It seems as if she is starting to condition herself to sleep thru the night. I just don't know if this is "healthy" for her at this young age to as long as 7 hours between feedings.
As for pooping: She still has normal yellow runny/seedy poops, but has gone from at least 4 per day to only 2. She still has tiny little "spots" of poop (literally less than 1/4 of a teaspoon) in almost every diaper change but did before too. Hubby and I get worried and almost count the minutes between those loud telltale poopy "farts"
Note: She has frequent wet diapers thrughout the day I would say she has at least 10 wet diapers in any 24 hour period.
I am assuming that this is all normal signs of her getting "older", but one can never worry TOO much LOL. And I'm sorry for being so wordy, but the more info I give, the more knowledgable the replies can be, I think. If anyone says, "this doesn't sound normal", my immediate action would be to call the pediatrician, of course.

Brooklynites have slung a lot of mud at Bruce Ratner's controversial Atlantic Yards Project over the years. On Tuesday, the project returned the favor.
A drill accident at the eastern end of the biggest construction project in Brooklyn's history sent egg-sized chunks of packed dirt and small stones raining down on unsuspecting pedestrians and commuters at the corner of Vanderbilt and Atlantic avenues on June 21 — leaving two injuries and more than seven damaged cars.
Witnesses said they heard an explosion at around 10:30 am as a hydraulic drill malfunctioned, sending dirt and rocks flying into the air.
"I heard this loud sound, but I didn't know where it was coming from," said motorist Yahya Alshemi, who was caught under a wave of mud pies. "Then rocks and dirt started falling all over my car."
Chunks of dirt blanketed Alshemi's car for nearly two minutes. One hunk slammed his windshield, causing it to spider web.
"I was very frightened," he recalled. "Driving your car is a daily activity. This isn't something you expect to happen."
Motorists pulled over until the storm passed, but many suffered busted windows, rear windows and sunroofs.
All was not lost: a project manager at the site promised to pay any damage caused by the accident. Alshemi immediately went to a nearby repair shop and had his window replaced.
Not everyone was so lucky. Two people suffered light injuries, officials said. One person was sent to a local hospital with a slight head wound. The other was treated at the scene — the former BP station at the corner of Atlantic and Vanderbilt avenues.
The pile driving at the site is expected to continue for two months as part of developer Forest City Ratner's infrastructure work on the Long Island Rail Road's Vanderbilt Yards. The company — which is currently building the Barclays Center to house the Brooklyn-bound Nets — did not return calls.

I met GM Gufeld when he imigrated to the USA (fortunately for me), and took 150 hours of lessons, traveled to events and listened to all his stories. He teaches chess principles in story form, the kind you can picture in your head. I got back into chess recently and an 8 year old kid began getting lessons using Gufelds story form of teaching. At age 9 he won two of the national 11 and under tourneys and the blitz. Now at age twelve he is at 2460 and someone to keep an eye on. His name is Advait Patel (adi).

Check out part two of our eye-opening tour of Zildjian's Gen 16 booth at the 2011 NAMM Show. In this edition, we look at the Groove Player iPhone/iPad ap, which will feature about 10,000 grooves when it debuts online next month, enabling songwriters and producers to download pristine studio drum tracks played by top Zildjian artists. Zildjian – the company that built its reputation on old world technology – has fully embraced the digital age. Pretty impressive.

Kawasaki Vulcan Vaquero: Cool, low, long, ultra stylish ֠all these adjectives fit the VulcanΠ1700 Vaquero٠plus one more ֠plenty functional. This bagger, introduced just last year into the Vulcan cruiser line, proves that practicality and cool can co-exist on the same bike. Its aggressive and muscular styling makes any Vaquero rider stand out from the crowd. And with a powerful 1,700 cc engine, electronic cruise control and full-featured audio system, the Vaquero begs to be taken out on the open road.

One day I read that in the first 5 minutes after waking up we forget half of our dreams, and after only 10 minutes, the 90% of our dreams just disappeared. Will this be real? I do not know why they say it, but I remember a lot of my dreams clearly.
Have you ever had a dream that seems to be the continuation of a previous one? One day I asked myself… what would happen if we started to write each of these dreams? What would happen if i can combine them, with music which is what I love most in my life?
"Daft dream" is the result of that question. Two years ago I have a recurring dream and I started writing everything about that dream, at the same time that i compose music about them.
You can be part of this project.

Needed hotel for the night as flight departed at 5.45am.
Had previously stayed at the Hilton in the airport for convenience, however the rooms were very tired and in need of a good clean. This hotel was excellent value for money. Dinner was served in the light and airy dining room and was good, we took advantage of a Two for £29.99 deal which gave an adequate choice including vegetarian and a glass of wine. Comfortable beds and quiet at night.
