Rated 5 out of 5�by Gabby5150 Love the Bosu I purchased the Bosu in hopes of getting a good ab workout without the back pain that I was experiencing while doing crunches on the floor. It is a bit more expensive than I initially thought it would be, but I do love it. It's a great tool in my workout, and the pink color is super cute! My only complaint is the pump; As other reviewers have stated, it is pretty cheap and seems like it could be easily broken. However, the pump did it's job and I was able to get the Bosu inflated without too much trouble. Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and would recommend to a friend. December 28, 2015

As he stared at the 90 names on the big board on the third floor of Lambeau Field last weekend, Mike McCarthy couldn't take it.
The Green Bay Packers coach knew cuts were looming – to 75 players by 3 p.m. Tuesday and to 53 players by 5 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 31 – and he realized that, like seemingly every year, it won't be easy. And entering Friday night's third preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks at Lambeau Field, entirely too many questions remain unanswered for his liking.
"I really don't want to sit here and try to pick the team today," McCarthy replied earlier this week when asked if any of the young wide receiver vying for the fifth (and perhaps sixth) spots on the roster had gotten a leg up. "I started doing that on Sunday a little bit and it's nerve wracking to me personally.
"We've got to make sure we have enough information on all these players. We don't do lip service to our players – 'Hey, we're only going to coach the ones we think are going to be here.' That's not the case. It's very evident from the first day together in the spring, and I feel very confident if you ask each one of the men in that locker room, they feel like they've been given an opportunity.
"Going through the board on Sunday really for the first time (was) to make sure that we're trying to get all these guys opportunities. As you know, we had 17 players miss the first game, 15 miss the second game, so everybody (wasn't) able to play. The third game is really a challenge for a lot of guys to play in. What happens (when) a guy doesn't play in (Friday's) game? What's going to happen at the 75,? Is he going to get an opportunity in Week 4? That's what I'm trying to avoid."
As a result, McCarthy suggested on multiple occasions during the week that the game against the Seahawks won't be the traditional dress rehearsal for the starters the way previous third preseason games have been. With the Sept. 8 regular-season opener at San Francisco 16 days away, McCarthy and general manager Ted Thompson not only want their starters to be ready for the 49ers, they also want to make sure the team keeps the right guys as role players and backups.
"You get attached to the guys. They all can't make it, so it's a tough time," Thompson said. "We have different thought processes. No. 1, how do you see the whole thing ending up in terms of the 53? But sometimes we have the thoughts about, how do we play the fourth preseason game? Just substitutions and that sort of thing. You kind of have to work the two.
"I think you always get surprised in training camp and the offseason stuff. Things surprise you. You can kind of look out into the future and think, "This is what's going to happen, this guy's going to take over for this guy,' and it's sort of fantasy football. And (then) you start playing it for real and it changes. So there are always changes, surprises."
With that in mind, here's a subjective look at where the Packers' roster stands entering Friday night's game against the Seahawks. Again, the team will have to make 15 roster moves – not necessarily all cuts, as some players can be moved to the in-season physically unable to perform list or injured reserve – by Tuesday afternoon.
In: Aaron Rodgers.
Too close to call: Vince Young, Graham Harrell.
Out: B.J. Coleman.
Things might very well be different had the Packers signed Young in March, when he was working out at the University of Texas' college pro day, and given him a chance to actually learn their offense and spend time in the world famous Mike McCarthy-Tom Clements-Ben McAdoo Quarterback School, relearning some of the fundamentals the 2006 No. 3 overall pick has let slide. Instead, they waited until Aug. 5, after seven of the eight installations of the offensive playbook had been completely.
"As long as he has snaps, he has a chance," quarterbacks coach Ben McAdoo said. "We'll learn more on Friday night. We're going to let it play out on the field. We're not going to make that decision; the tape's going to make that decision."
Asked if he wished the Packers had called sooner, Young replied, "Anybody would wish (that). I'm pretty much used to it. I had the lockout year (in 2011) going into Philly that year and didn't have an offseason. These type of things happen, so you have to be a professional and learn to go in and put in some extra work so that you can catch up with the guys."
Truth is, he hasn't caught up. McCarthy's remark during the week that Harrell and Coleman elevated their games was telling. While Harrell hasn't set the world on fire, he was better against the Rams and the guess here is that he'll ultimately be the choice. That said, the very signing of Young indicated the team's feeling that it could do better. Coleman is ticketed for another year on the practice squad.
RUNNING BACKS (4 or 5)
In: Eddie Lacy, DuJuan Harris, Johnathan Franklin, John Kuhn.
Too close to call: James Starks, Alex Green.
Out: Angelo Pease, Jonathan Amosa.
Lacy and Harris will deliver an appealing 1-2 punch if both can stay healthy, and Kuhn was all but guaranteed a roster spot by running backs coach Alex Van Pelt in a conversation on Tuesday. Lacy gives the Packers a talent they haven't seen since Ahman Green's prime, but Harris is no slouch. Franklin hasn't done much to get excited about at this point, but he's a fourth-round pick, and Thompson's track record would indicate that the odds of him giving up on such a high pick are virtually nil. Since taking over as GM in 2005, the highest draft picks fail to make the roster coming out of their first training camps were TCU wide receiver Cory Rodgers (fourth round) in 2006 and South Carolina tackle Jamon Meredith (fifth round) in 2009. It's unfathomable to think Franklin wouldn't make the roster, especially since Kuhn is in the last year of his contract and the coaches would love nothing more than to have an actual offensive threat as the third-down back and not just a pass protector.
"Johnathan just hasn't been fortunate enough to get any of those good, clean looks yet," Van Pelt said of Franklin's 2.6-yard preseason average. "When they come, you'll see his explosiveness, his ability to make guys miss."
Choosing between Starks and Green could come down to which player has trade value. Or, neither could make the roster. Starks looked good early in camp but his fumble in St. Louis got him benched and left him in the depth chart dungeon. If the Packers keep one of them on merit, Green probably gets the nod.
WIDE RECEIVERS (5 or 6)

Man jailed on domestic assault chargeMarch 19,2014Man jailed on
assault charge
A Rutland man is behind bars after facing a second charge of domestic abuse in little more than a month.
Whalen D. Goucher, 45, pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court Tuesday to misdemeanor counts of domestic assault, operation of a motor vehicle without owners consent, petty larceny and violating court ordered conditions from a charge of felony aggravated domestic assault brought against him in early February.
Judge Theresa DiMauro set bail at $5,000 for Goucher.
Rutland City Police say a woman told police Goucher choked her and hit her before stealing her car, purse and cellular phone on March 15.
The car and the womans possessions were quickly recovered, but Goucher was not immediately arrested. During phone conversations with police on Sunday and Monday, Goucher told police he planned to go into hiding and they would need to shoot him, and there would be a shootout if authorities tried to take him into custody, according to court records.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON Long-term U.S. Full StoryMONTPELIER The Vermont attorney generals office says drug companies have complied with a state...

I am a big online shopper, trying my best to avoid the stores during the busy holiday shopping season. However, my husband insisted we spend some time window shopping at the mall while enjoying the sounds and sights of the season. I reluctantly went. We pulled into a parking space farthest away from the mall. I couldn't believe the shortage of spaces. The chaos outside made me want to drive away, afraid of what we would experience inside. What we found surprised me.
The mall was filled with people. Some stores were wall to wall shoppers with little room to move. The noise of all the holiday chatter echoed off the walls. When I looked around, I saw shoppers carrying multiple bags. Despite the crowds, it wasn't chaotic. It was orderly.
One place where I expected chaos was the Santa line. The line was wrapped around the display probably 50-100 deep. Surely, the patience was wearing thin for somebody. I looked around and didn't see one child running around, screaming, or crying.
I was shocked. I've visited gaming and play centers on a weekend, and it's filled with children running around, screaming, or crying. However, the magic and power of Santa had all these children on their best behavior.
Shoppers were not only on their best behavior, store clerks were too. They were helpful and pleasant. Granted they're told to be on their best behavior as sales during the holiday season are crucial to the future of some of these businesses. While corporate may send that message, reality doesn't always allow a smile and courteous attitude. The retail business is tough and involves long, tiring hours. That can easily get the best of any human so I expected "someone" would be in a bad mood. I didn't find anyone during my visit.
It's amazing how much one person's attitude impacts the next. With many people in good moods, the spirit of the season was felt by many. The good mood became contagious. One woman even commented to the manager about the good cheer.
We were eating at a restaurant in the mall parking lot, and the woman in the booth next to us asked for the manager. That's never a good sign, and you could see the server was concerned by the expression on his face. He even went over to the woman after she asked for the manager, and had a brief interaction. Clearly, the server was concerned about the customer's request.
The manager came over, and the customer asked her to sit down. Another bad sign, or was it? I couldn't hear everything that was said, but the next thing that I heard was the manager thanking the woman over and over for sharing such positive comments. The manager told the customer typically she hears the bad feedback rather than any positive feedback about servers. She thanked the customer for sharing.
The manager and customer talked for almost ten minutes as if they were good friends. The manager made it known this was a rare experience.
Minutes later the waiter stopped by the booth to thank the customer. He really was a great server, and we left him a 30% tip to thank him for his good service.
I must say the shopping experience was unexpected for the holiday season. It was nice to see good customer service still exists and good behavior from customers still exists. We hear all about the bad store policies, why not focus on the positive? We all need a bright spot in this still sluggish and unpredictable economy. I hope you've also enjoyed the joy of the holiday season. Share your stories of positive customer service by clicking comment below.

I need a rest after Rockies Fest
Rockies Fest 2010.
This would be the second time this special Rockies season ticket holder event has taken place and the second time we've been there. The weather was expected to be in the mid-40's today and for January in Colorado I'll take that.
Below are two things that don't mix.
Let me tell you though I did have to fight of the urge to run out there lay my a-ss on the field and start pumping out snow angels 🙂
Mylee didn't make Rockies Fest today because she's been sick for almost a week.
Let me tell you my little girl was extremely sad she couldn't go so we promised to get her Rockies mini-bat signed for her. We did just that thanks to Huston Street. I chatted with a lot of people yesterday and everyone agreed Street has one of the nicest autographs in baseball today.
Hunter and I had a little time to kill before our the "Pitcher and Catcher interviews" so we toured the Press Box.
While inside we each took our photo ops.
Me in that chair, high above with the killer view of the field. I tell ya it felt like I was home.
I must have been sitting in "The Cowboy's" chair because it was broke in real good.
As we killed more time and wandered the Club levels of Coors Field we walked up on a huge bin of baseballs.
I was half expecting Zack Hample to pop out of them so when he didn't I asked someone what this was.
I was informed that object was to guess the number of balls in the cage and it you could only enter if you were 15 or younger.
Lets just say the prizes were a baseball collector's dream.
I took a few moments and filled out entries for Hunter and Mylee as did every parent with kids I'm sure.
While we were standing there fixated on the autographed bats I bumped into Joy aka LUVMYROX who was there with her family. I believe they also were killing time waiting for their Outfielder interviews to begin.
A few minutes and a hundred feet later I ran into Marianne aka R-Luv who was also exploring the festivities with her family.
Funny thing and I hope I get this all correct. Joy and Marianne have known each other for years through the Rockies forums. During Rockies games they comment back and forth with each other on the forum but up until today had never physically met.
When I met up with Dan today he mentioned that the two of them finally met each other here at the Rockies Fest.
Ladies I'm sorry I missed that photo opportunity. Congratulations how appropriate that you met at Rockies Fest as you both are HUGE fans….Too Cool.
It was time for us to head up to the Pitcher/Catcher interviews. This took place up in Club level. The MC's hosting this Q N A were Alana Rizzo (my favorite FSN employee), and that other guy Drew Goodman.
For some reason my hands started to shake every time I tried to take a picture of Alana. The above picture was the clearest of the bunch.
Here's a shot of most of your Rockies pitchers and catchers for the upcoming 2010 Season.
Let me break it down a little better. Below is Chris Iannetta and Matt Daley.
Taylor Buchholz, Aaron Cook, Jeff Francis and Huston Street
Randy Flores, Greg Smith and Miguel Olivo
Last but not least Jason Hammel and Matt Belisle
Most of the questions they asked were a bit regular side. However,I did manage to get video of Jeff Francis when he was asked about his arm and his return.
Here's the video:
So I guess he's back. I wish him the best. We need the Canadian.
After the interview session it was autograph time. Our first session was Huston Street and first base coach Glenallen Hill.
As I approached Huston Street I said "Hi I'm Don I write the Rockpile Rant" and I asked him if he was going to continue his MLBlog. Street replied "Yeah, I'd like to".
You heard it here first.
Then I moved onto Glenallen Hill. As he was signing my mini-bat Hill asked me "What do you do with all those autographs?" I started laughing and said" Mr. Hill you asked me the same exact question a year ago at spring training."
Hill looked at me and said "You know I don't ask everyone that question".
I'm not sure what he meant by that but he was smiling when he said it so I'll take it as a positive.
Two down and we had time to burn again. As we walked by the Jeff Francis/Rich Dauer autograph session we noticed the line was short. I asked if we could just go through as it was the tail end of this session and the extremely cool Usher let us.
That totally made my day because I just happend to have with me my 2007 Sports Illustrated magazine with Jeff Francis on the cover. Hunter went into the room first and right away Jeff asked him what his name was.
Then Jeff wrote "For Hunter" on the picture and autographed it.
Very classy Jeff….Thank you.
I handed Jeff my magazine and he looked left at the Usher standing beside him and said "See told you, here's the first one". Again I was like WTF? But I think Jeff was making note that every time he autographs for fans someone hands him one of those Sports Illustrated issues.
Least I hope he wasn't making fun of me..We're both from Canada?
Rich Dauer signed a picture for Hunter and a mini-bat for me and then we were outta there.
We headed downstairs and while wandering around an Usher asked if we would like Eric Young Jr's autograph. Without hesitation I said "Yes Sir" and within a few minutes we were standing in front of EY Jr.
Here he is signing Hunters baseball.
EY Jr signing my mini-bat.
EY Jr really seemed like he was having a good time. Keep'n it real, I like that.
When we walked out of there directly across from us was the long line for Don Baylor and Randy Flores. I felt a big smile growing because I've never managed to get Don Baylor's autograph before. It's not that he wouldn't sign, just really bad timing on my part.
Today Don Baylor signed an Inaugural Year Rockies Magazine with his picture on it for me.
When I handed him the magazine I said "Mr. Baylor you haven't changed a bit", He looked up at me and said smiling "Yeah right". Then he autographed it for me.
Here's Don Baylor autographing Hunter's baseball.
Here's Randy Flores autographing Hunter's baseball.
Hunter and I hurried upstairs so we could catch the tail end of Matt Belisle's autograph session..
These plates may not be fine china but I'm sure their worth more than the plates I eat off of.
These beauties are a couple of the bat-shovels used to break ground on the Rockies/D-Backs new Spring Training Facility east of Scottsdale last year.
I just wanted to show how the MLB labels game used items. Specifically ones from big games.
Notice how they misspelled Tulowitzki's last name on the first helmet.
You can see me Tulo and Coors Field in this picture.
This is a special helmet made just for Charlie Hayes who suffered a broken jaw. This is the unsigned original artwork used to make the Coors Field Inaugural year opening day ticket.
The World Famous Colorado Rockies Humidor.
Hunter with a lean mean Don Baylor.
My Inaugural year Rockies magazine with Don Baylor's fresh autograph on it.
My 2007 Sports Illustrated with Jeff Francis on the cover with a fresh Jeff Francis autograph on it.
My mini-bats In order…Glenallen Hill, Eric Young Jr, Huston Street, Rich Dauer, Randy Flores, and Clint Barmes.
Here's all of it minus the hampster and Hunter's stuff.
Here's a shot of Ryan Spilborghs on his way to his next session.
Just as Hunter and I were leaving Club level heading home we ran into Robert.
Best hat of the day.
Hunter making his mark just like his pops.
The Rockpile Ranter blessing Coors Field for the upcoming season.(I can legally do that).
It was great to see all of you again. Dan, thank you once again for this special opportunity.
This is the year folks. The chemistry between this group of fellas feels right. We've had a taste of the post-season twice in recent years and we can't go backwards right?
It starts with believing. I believe, Hunter believes, everybody I ran into at Rockies Fest believes.
I'm D The Rockpile Ranter and I believe I'm finished with this entry.

Hey Don! It was great seeing you on Sat. We had an awesome time (thanks again to Dan!) I was also wishing I'd taken photos of some of the awesomest Rockies fans in the world while I had them all together, LOL Ah well, plenty of time! 🙂
Glad you got pix of the pitchers/catchers, as we weren't there for that at all, and I especially wanted a close up of Aaron's hair! By the way, the question mark in front of Chris Iannetta is Matt Daley, and the guy you have labeled as Matt is actually Greg Smith.
As always, happy to see a new Rant. Oh, and thanks for autographing the K's floppy hat 😀
CLEVLAND-Welcome to the Rant…It was a good time.
LUVMYROX-Fixed it thanks. Nice to see you all too. It's going to be a good year, can you feel it?…D
Hey D,
THAT WAS AWESOME! It was nice seeing you and finally getting to meet luvmyrox in the flesh. We had such a great time and really want to thank Dan for the tix. Dan you made a Rockies fan's dream come true.
Highlights for us: watching Barmes play Guitar Hero with one of the young fans (plus getting his and EYjr's autographs there) and my son getting a High-Five from Spilly while we were waiting in line for his autograph session. I Luv Our Team!
Can't wait for the season to begin!
P.S. Is Mylee feeling better?
Wow, great pics!! Could Todd have anymore shirts in his locker though?! Thanks for sharing the pictures from the Fest!!
Great pics especially the video of Francis. He will be a key cog in the 2010 Rockies Machine on the road to Rocktober.
Awesome experience, that probably has you really pumped for opening day. Can't wait, like 63 days or something.
Maybe I will be able to take my son Jonah to this event someday?
what a great time and so awesome you could share it with your son. its kinda unfair that it is just for season ticket holders but still i guess you are the guys that earn it. Coors Field is one of my favorite stadiums
Looks like a really fun event! You're right, Huston Street does have a nice signature. It looks like an actual name, and not just a scribble the way some do. Hope your daughter is feeling better now.
Rants, Raves, and Random Thoughts
Great sights!! Looks like a awesome expierence hope to get to be a part of that someday. I am excited to read your posts this season and see you out at the park. And o by the way I believe as well!
looks like fun time, D. that's a pretty cool picture of helton's locker. i guess he doesn't need any of that stuff during the off-season. anyway, its time for some baseball! i'm ready!
TODD-I wouldn't mind a few of those extra Helton Jerseys. I'm ready too brotha…
BLOCKBUSTER-Thank you and Welcome to the Rant. Say hi anytime.
SUE-Thanks she's fine now..
MATTPEAS-Someday they'll probably open it up to everyone. It is a great tool to snag season ticket holders though.
TRIPLETROX-Thank you and Welcome to the Rant. I've seen the tickets on Craigs list, they can be gotten.
Looks like everyone had a great time. It's sad when you cannot go to the games with the kids, like Sherry, my 11 year old girl was. You always feel something is missing when you do not go to the games with all the kids. – Jordan

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Home sales in Wisconsin are continuing a brisk pace, but the median home sale price slipped in November.
Home sales jumped almost 25 percent last month from November 2011. According to statistics released Monday by the Wisconsin Realtors Association, monthly sales of existing homes now have risen for almost a year and a half.
But the median sale price in November dipped 2 percent.
Renny Diedrich, chairman of the state Realtors' board of directors, says Wisconsin's housing market has "seen a real bounce" this year.
But the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports the Realtors aren't sure what drove down the median price from November a year ago. The median price slipped to $129,900 from $133,000. Until November, the median price in Wisconsin had risen for eight consecutive months.

The White House has released a video featuring food deserts.
A TEDx Talk from Chicago further discusses food deserts in detail
There is a new wave of information documenting the geography of food deserts. Scientific American just published their study on food deserts with maps and the U.S. Department of Agriculture has a zoomable map of food deserts down to the census tract.
|Food deserts and health issues. Maps from Scientific American. Click to enlarge.
A professional partisan professional, non-geographer stated to me that food deserts are "overhyped myths" by "the First Lady to pretend she cares so she can rally votes for Obama [for the upcoming election]." She further claims that rural areas include farms and people who are use to having to travel more than a mile for almost everything. The partisan professional went on to claim that the correlation on the various maps do not fully match up and that the Department of Agriculture map did not reveal its data on convenience stores et al versus grocery stores.
My food geography studies are fairly limited so I honestly have to say I do not know enough to make any judgement call on food deserts in the United States. It is undeniable there are regions where food access can be somewhat difficult but whether or not this translates into the health issues as claimed by some seems up for question.
If there are any geographers who have experience in food geography I would love to hear from you in either the comments forum or through a guest post.

Could there be something 'wrong' with my milk? Is there a way to make my milk more satisfactory for her?

April 25, 2005: During the 15 years NASAs Hubble Space Telescope has orbited the Earth, it has taken more than 700,000 photos of the cosmos; images that have awed, astounded and even confounded astronomers and the public. WATCH: HubbleMinute Video HubbleMinute: 15 Years of Science from Hubble Space Telescope HubbleMinute: Amazing Space "Galileo to the Great Observatories: Telescopes from the Ground Up" NASA released new views today of two of the most well-known objects Hubble has ever observed: the Whirlpool Galaxy (spiral galaxy M51) [left] and the Eagle Nebula [right]. These new images are among the largest and sharpest Hubble has ever taken. They were made with Hubble's newest camera, the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS). The images are so incredibly sharp, they could be enlarged to billboard size and still retain stunning details.
For the 15th anniversary, scientists used the ACS to record a new region of the eerie-looking Eagle Nebula. The Eagle Nebula image reveals a tall, dense tower of gas being sculpted by ultraviolet light from a group of massive, hot stars. The new Whirlpool Galaxy image showcases the spiral galaxy's classic features, from its curving arms, where newborn stars reside, to its yellowish central core that serves as home for older stars. A feature of considerable interest is the companion galaxy located at the end of one of the spiral arms.See the rest:
The Whirlpool Galaxy, M51, is located 31 million light-years away in the constellation Canes Venatici (the Hunting Dogs). The Eagle Nebula, M16, is 6,500 light-years away, within our Milky Way galaxy. It is located in the direction of the constellation Serpens.
M51 was taken in January 2005. The image of the Eagle Nebula was taken in November 2004.
The center portion of M51 was taken with 2 pointings of the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. This newer image of M51 was taken with 6 pointings of the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) allowing its companion to also show in the image. Both images of M51 are a composite of blue, green, infrared and hydrogen emission filters.
A Hubble image of the Eagle Nebula was released in 1995 and was a single pointing of the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. It was a composite of hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur filters. This new image of the Eagle Nebula looks vastly different than the 1995 image, and rightly so. This image is of a different column of gas in a different part of the nebula. It is composed of two ACS pointings in blue, green, and infrared light, as well as emission from hydrogen and oxygen. (The ACS detector does not have a sulfur emission filter.)
Scientists using Hubble have compiled a long list of scientific achievements since its launch 15 years ago. Hubble has helped astronomers calculate the precise age of the universe (13.7 billion years old); helped confirm the existence of a strange form of energy called dark energy; detected small proto-galaxies that emitted their light when the universe was less than a billion years old; proved the existence of super-massive black holes; provided sharp views of a comet hitting Jupiter; showed that the process of forming planetary systems is common throughout the galaxy; and has taken more than 700,000 snapshots of celestial objects such as galaxies, dying stars, and giant gas clouds - the birthplace of stars.

McDONALDâS BETSY RAWLS GIRLS CHAMPIONSHIP
White Manor Country Club
Malvern, Pennsylvania
July 26-29, 2004
MALVERN, Pa. â Amanda Blumenherst of Scottsdale, Ariz., Tiffany Chudy of Miramar, Fla., and Julieta Granada of Asunción, Paraguay, tied for the lead at 2-over-par 144 Wednesday at the McDonaldâs Betsy Rawls Girls Championship at White Manor Country Club. Two strokes behind the leaders at 4-over-par is Esther Choe of La Quinta, Calif., Megan Grehan of Mamaroneck, N.Y., Nannette Hill of Pelham Manor, N.Y., and Morgan Pressel of Boca Raton, Fla.
Conducted by the American Junior Golf Association, the 54-hole stroke-play invitational event is being held at the newly renovated White Manor Country Club in Malvern, Pa., home of the LPGAâs McDonaldâs Classic from 1981-1986. The event features 83 girls from 24 states, Canada and Paraguay who were invited based on past top national junior golf tournament finishes.
The tournament, one of two girls-only AJGA majors, brings 21 Rolex Junior All-Americans to the Philadelphia area, including Amanda Blumenherst of Scottsdale, Ariz., Julieta Granada of Asunción, Paraguay, Morgan Pressel of Boca Raton, Fla., and Sukjin-Lee Wuesthoff of Toms River, N.J.
First-round leader Granada finished strong with back-to-back birdies on Nos. 17 and 18 after struggling with four bogeys earlier in the round. The 17-year-old hit 14 fairways and 11 greens with 32 putts.
âI felt very tired today,â said the Rolex Junior All-American. âFor the final round I want to take one shot at a time and give them all 100 percent. I feel very confident going into the final round.â
Chudy, who has had three top-5 finishes during the 2004 season, carded a tournament low-69 during the second round and hopes to make a move during the final round.
âI played a solid round with 16 pars and two birdies,â said the University of Florida signee. âThis course suites my game because I can hit the ball far and then use my short irons, which are easier to play on this course.
âI have been playing very strong leading up to this event and hopefully I will end this tournament at the top of the leaderboard.â
First-team Rolex Junior All-American Blumenherst, also tied for the lead, had a steady round with straight pars on the front nine and a lone birdie on No. 16.
âI only hit eight fairways during the first round so my goal was to hit my driver straight,â said Blumenherst. âI hit 13 fairways today which made me feel better.â
Blumenherst has won two AJGA events in the 2004 season and has had four top-10 finishes.
Grace Woo of Burbank, Calif., sits alone in eighth at 72-75â147.
Tied for ninth at 6-over par 148 are Angela Park of Torrance, Calif., Tiffany Joh of San Diego, Whitney Frykman of Acworth, Ga., and Jennifer Osborn of Huntington Beach, Calif.
The American Junior Golf Association is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the overall growth and development of young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf. The AJGA has a membership (boys and girls ages 12-18) of approximately 5,000 junior golfers from 50 states and 30 foreign countries.
Titleist, the AJGAâs National Sponsor, has been the catalyst and driving force behind the Associationâs success since 1989. Rolex Watch USA, a supporter of the AJGA since 1983, became the inaugural AJGA Premier Partner in 2004.
Final-round tee times will begin at 7 a.m. Thursday off the No. 1 tee. For more information about the McDonaldâs Betsy Rawls Girls Championship, please contact tournament headquarters at (610) 540-0275.

With obesity rates soaring, many people are looking for ways to drop a few pounds.
Medical experts generally recommend against trying fad diets that promise to lose a lot of weight in a short period of time. Rather, they suggest that you change your eating habits and make a healthy diet a mainstay in your life.
The most important way of introducing a healthier diet into your life is to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables and to be aware of the nutritional content of the food that you choose. And of course coupling exercise with eating better is sure to get the pounds off.
But no matter which way you choose to shed the fat, there are five seemingly innocent foods that can ruin your plans to have a slender, sleeker physique.
No. 5: 100-calorie snack packs
There are numerous 100-calorie cookies, crackers, bars and snacks to grab in the grocery store.
For many people, the snacks appear to be a good choice -- after all, the packages boldly and clearly say, "100 Calories." So many people think, "Wow, a tasty treat with minimal calories."
But while tossing the already prepared snacks in your grocery cart may help you control calories, the snacks may not necessarily be the best choice for nutritional intake.
In fact, preparing more nutritious snacks in small plastic bags is a better idea. A few healthier snacks would include almonds, celery or carrots. Grabbing any fruit would also be a good choice.
But if the 100-calorie pack of Oreo cookies continues to attract you, be sure not to make it a daily thing. And while eating proportioned and prepackaged snacks may derail your diet plans, so can drinking soda ...
No. 4: Soda
Don't even think about grabbing a soda -- diet or not -- if you want your weight loss plans to be successful.
Soda is one of those things that only provide empty calories. This means that there is no nutritional value of drinking a soda, so why even reach for one?
Instead drink plenty of water. Water makes up about 70 percent of your body weight. Water is also the most important nutrient for the body.
If it's tough for you to drink water, try dumping a flavored pack of Crystal Light, Wyler's or Special K into a bottle or glass of water to make it more of a healthy flavored drink.
If you don't have any on hand, add a slice of lemon. Not only will the lemon add a little flavor, it will help you burn about 70 more calories. It will also help flush toxins out the body.
No. 3: Salad dressing
Whenever someone tries to lose weight, salads are usually first on the list.
While salads are good for dieting -- well, actually, they are great -- be careful about the salad dressing you pick and how much you use. Be sure to measure it.
Don't just grab the bottle and begin pouring, because chances are that you will pour on too much. Use a tablespoon to spread the dressing and only use two tablespoons.
If this doesn't sound like enough, try putting your dressing in a separate container and dip sparingly. While cream-based dressings, such as ranch or blue cheese, may be more appealing, find a vinaigrette that is tasty.
And if you really want to be creative, whip up your very own dressing using olive oil and a low-fat recipe.

A convicted killer stole 40 seconds of freedom after being sentenced to life in prison Friday when he escaped while being escorted from district court in Muleshoe.
Daniel A. Cardon Jr., 50, who was convicted earlier in the day by a Bailey County jury of gunning down his estranged wife, broke free from police and ran about a block before being apprehended, according to Bailey County Sheriff Richard Wills.
Wills said Cardon was transported for detention at the Lubbock County Sheriff's office due to security concerns.
Cadron was sentenced to life in prison without parole after a four-day trial, according to court documents.
Police say Cardon shot Lucila Perez, 38, point-blank in the head about 12:30 a.m. June 4 in the 300 block of West Third Street in Muleshoe, across the street from Mary DeShazo Elementary School.
Perez had five children, two with Cardon.
Police captured Cardon the day after the shooting in a field east of Muleshoe.

By Kevin Wilson: Freedom New Mexico
The Cash for Clunkers program, which has been successful nationwide in spurring new-car sales since it began in late July, had mixed impacts on local dealers through its conclusion Monday.
"We had a lot of positive response out of it," said Tim Baldwin, the sales and new car manager for Hamilton Big Country Ford in Tucumcari.
There was some variety, Baldwin said, but the bulk of the 50-plus people who took advantage of the program got the Ford Focus. The car was the most popular, Baldwin said, because the sticker price started around $18,000 before the government rebate was factored in.
"Obviously, the Focus was overall the most popular, but we did everything," said Baldwin, who noted trade-in cars weren't going to get much trade-in value if the Car Allowance Rebate System program wasn't involved.
Bryce Bender, co-owner of the Bender family of dealerships in Clovis, said most of his sales were simply people saving a few miles per gallon from one truck to another.
Newer GM and Dodge trucks, Bender said, are configured to use fewer cylinders on the highway, boosting gas mileage.
A common refrain of dealers was the delay in reimbursement, as the businesses are on the hook for rebates and are out the cash for weeks at a time.
Nationwide through early Tuesday, dealers had submitted 665,000 vouchers totaling $2.77 billion. Many dealership employees have worked overnight in recent days to submit each trade-in vehicle's 13-page reimbursement application, including the title, proof of registration and proof of insurance.
The deadline for submission was extended numerous times Tuesday due to problems accessing the database.
The government may have underestimated the popularity of the program, Bender said, because the $1 billion originally set aside was supposed to last through October. The program ended after roughly a month with an extra injection of $2 billion.
Nationwide, consumers rushed to take advantage of rebates taken off the price of new cars in return for trading in older, less fuel efficient vehicles.
Dealers so far have only received a fraction of the reimbursement funds they are owed.
Through last Thursday, the most recent data available, the Transportation Department had reviewed and processed more than 150,000 reimbursement applications and approved just $140 million in payments to dealers. At the time, DOT had processed about 30 percent of all the applications they had received.
Now that the program is over, the challenge is keeping business.
Bender said it shouldn't be difficult since the CARS program resulted in a slight spike in sales.
"The main thing is to stay focused on customer satisfactions," Baldwin said. "The ones we couldn't sell on that, we try to get them back in."

Annual Youth Expo slated for Monday
PARKERSBURG – The sixth annual Youth Expo will feature 20 area agencies showing off their programs and services in addition to fun and door prizes on Monday.
The expo is scheduled for 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Monday at the Elite Sports Center.
Area youth, ages 5-21, and their parents can attend the free event to learn about youth programs and services. Business and youth service agencies have donated door prizes, there will be drawings throughout the day. The grand prize, a Playstation Vita Bundle, will be given away following the event. Dan McPherson of State Farm Insurance sponsored the grand prize.
"The Youth Expo provides parents and youth with an opportunity to browse various youth service programs and meet with representatives of those programs in one location," said Angela Schmidle, Wood County Family Resource Network director.
Some of the agencies that will be on hand to talk about their programs include: The Boys and Girls Club of Parkersburg; S.H. Kang's Tae Kwon Do Academy; Children's Home Society; Parkersburg YMCA; Regional Educational Service Agency, District 5-Adolescent Health Initiative; Wood County 4-H/West Virginia University Extension Service; Mid-Ohio Valley Health Department; Westbrook Health Services; Youth Advantage and many more organizations that specialize in youth programming.
"The Youth Expo is packed full of fun and great resources for youth and families. It is a unique event because it brings so many different youth service agencies together in one location and gives parents and youth a chance to 'shop' for the perfect program to fit their interests," Schmidle said.
The Youth Expo is sponsored by the Wood County Family Resource Network's Youth Adolescent Council and Wood County Schools.

Future Students
Current Students
Welcome to Syracuse University, where the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarship Programs has a rich history of providing students access to a private education. We understand that college is an investment, and our office works hard to make it as affordable as possible.
Explore their site for a fuller description of our financial aid programs and application process. Their experienced staff is available year round to assist you throughout the financial aid process.
The vast majority of funding for graduate study at Syracuse University is determined at the departmental level. Professors in your specific discipline are in the best position to determine if and how you will receive merit-based support from the University. Possibilities for funding include: University Fellowships, graduate assistantships, (teaching, research, and administrative), and scholarships. Please consult your faculty advisor, graduate program director, or department chair directly for information regarding any of these funding sources listed below.
Our general deadline is January 1st, but if you are seeking financial support from Syracuse University you should note the program specific deadlines on your admission application instructions. If you are a new student who wishes to be considered for a Fellowship, your application and supporting documentation must be received by January 1st. If a departmental application deadline is prior to January 1, you will need to meet the earlier deadline. It is important that your application is complete, because assistantship and scholarship decisions are made only after all admissions materials are received. If you are a continuing student, you should contact your department chair or graduate program director during the fall semester to inquire about consideration for financial support for the following year.
SU Graduate Fellowships consist of a stipend and a full-tuition scholarship (up to 30 credits for the academic year). Where appropriate, they are awarded for more than one academic year. Multi-year awards typically include a year of fellowship followed by a year of teaching or research assistantship, followed by a third year of fellowship support. Fellows are appointed annually, primarily from among incoming graduate students, although some returning students entering the final year of a terminal degree program at Syracuse (e.g. M.F.A. or Ph.D.) receive these awards. If you are a currently enrolled student wishing to be nominated for these fellowships, you should consult your academic department.
You might also be eligible for an African-American Studies Fellowship. African American Studies Fellowships are intended for any U.S. Citizen or permanent resident students whose graduate study requires the integration of African American/Pan African studies, and who will make an intellectual contribution to the life of the Department of African American Studies. These Fellowships include a stipend and a full-tuition scholarship (up to 30 credits for the academic year). African American Fellows are required to enroll in at least one three-credit graduate course each semester in the African American Studies Program for the duration of their award. These Fellowships are awarded for one academic year and are usually not typically re-awarded for consecutive academic years. If you are interested in applying for these awards, you must send a letter of intent to the African American Studies Program. Current graduate students must be nominated for these awards by their academic department. You should indicate your interest in this award on your graduate school application, which should be submitted no later than January 1.
If you are from an underrepresented group (African American, Hispanic or Native American) and are applying for doctoral programs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), Syracuse University offers single and multiple-year fellowships to U.S. citizens and permanent residents from. To be eligible for these awards, you must be nominated by your academic department.
Syracuse University annually funds up to six McNair Fellowships, with preference given to those applying for doctoral programs. The Fellowships consist of a stipend and a full-tuition scholarship (up to 30 credits for the academic year). To be eligible for consideration, you must be either from an underrepresented group (African American, Hispanic or Native American) or have been a McNair Scholar at your undergraduate institution. You must have already been admitted into a Syracuse University graduate program and formally nominated by their department to be considered for the award. Please indicate your interest in being considered for these fellowships by checking the appropriate box on the application form.
If you are a full-time, matriculated/or admitted graduate student of Ukrainian background enrolled in either the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs or the College of Arts and Sciences, or a Syracuse University graduate student whose area of study is the Ukraine or includes Ukrainian topics, you are eligible to be considered for a Hursky Fellowship. Preference is given to students whose study includes Ukrainian language and literature, Ukrainian linguistics, and/or culture. The Fellowship honors the legacy of Professor Jacob Hursky and his wife Valentina, and includes a stipend of and a tuition scholarship for 24 credits for the academic year and the following summer. Students receiving the award are known as Hursky Fellows.
Learn more about the biography of Professor Hursky, supporting the Hursky Fund, and applying for the Hursky Fellowship.
If you are considering graduate study in engineering or the sciences, then you should know about GEM. GEM is a program of the National Consortium for Graduate Degrees for Minorities in Engineering and Science, Inc. and provides Fellowships in an engineering or science discipline at any GEM member institution. African American, Latino American, and Native American students are eligible to compete for these portable fellowships.
These funds are provided by corporations, and include Fellowship stipends and some tuition. Graduate schools provide the remainder of the tuition and sometimes supplement the stipends with their own funds. For more information about the program and how to apply, students should contact: The National GEM Consortium 1430 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314, or visit their website: http://www.gemfellowship.org/.
You might also be interested in SU's Graduate Assistantship opportunities. Each year we offer over 1,400 graduate assistantships to full-time matriculated graduate students to serve as teaching, research or administrative assistants. Graduate students holding a full assistantship work for an average of twenty hours a week during the academic year. The department making the appointment determines the salary the assistant receives, and many graduate assistants also receive tuition scholarships.
In searching for an assistantship, start with your academic department. This offers the best chance of finding an opportunity related to your program of study. If you are unable to locate opportunities in your home department, your faculty advisor, graduate program director, or department chair may be able to advise you of other options.
Syracuse University awards merit scholarships on the recommendation of your academic department. Scholarships provide tuition credited directly to your bursar account. These do not include a stipend. Scholarships may be awarded for some or all of your tuition in a given year. These awards carry with them the expectation that you will maintain a minimum academic standard (3.0 grade point average or higher each term) and make satisfactory progress toward your degree. Contact your department chairperson or faculty advisor for more information.
Many academic departments use their own funds to help graduate students defray the costs of travel to present original work at a conference. Contact your department to determine the availability of funds for this purpose.
If you are interested in carrying out independent research or creative projects during the summer, Syracuse University¿s Graduate School holds a competition held each year for this purpose, administered by the schools and colleges of Syracuse University. Students interested in this competition are encouraged to contact their respective school or college for complete guidelines.
You know that some academic departments and schools or colleges at Syracuse have endowed resources of their own from which they may provide financial support to graduate students. The nature of these opportunities requires that you contact your department to determine whether such support may be available to you.

A blog about my journey with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome including HHV 6, EBV, C. Pneumonia, Bartonella, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, and Biotoxin Illness
Saturday, December 19, 2009
He also said that I could have chronic gallbladder inflammation in which case I need to have surgery to have it removed. The trick is how do I find a doctor willing to order the necessary tests to find out if my gallbladder is inflamed.
The third idea he mentioned was that toxins might be recirculating so I might try some sort of binder like cholestryamine ( I still have some leftover from the mold fiasco last year), chlorella, or bentonite clay. I decided against the clay because I already have enough trouble keeping water in my system so I'm chronically dehydrated. Apparently if one doesn't drink enough water the clay "can form a brick in the intestines."
I asked about XMRV but there is no other news. I don't have my results yet and it's unclear when the results will be in.
I've been wanting something to address all the inflammation in my body and this time remembered to ask so here is what he recommends: 1) kaprex from Emerson or 2) Zywobin Forte from Emerson Ecologies. I haven't tried either one yet so I can't say how either one works.
The early morning adrenaline like surges and subsequent anxiety is due to increasing autonomic nervous system dysfunction. He recommended a homeopathic remedy called "Coro Calm" and a supplement called "Phenibut." I'm trying to find the best source to purchase both.
We talked about stem cells being my best chance at getting a big jump in improvement. He gave me the name of a company doing some stem cell stuff at a fraction of what Cheney charges. I plan on doing more research into stem cell treatment. It's still too soon to try it; Not enough information, too expensive and only 30-40% of people experience improvement,
He does neural therapy and trained under Bigelson so I asked if neural therapy can help autonomic nervous system dysfunction. He said "sometimes" and left it at that.
The not eating very much along with the toe surgery plus the regular ME/CFS stuff has left me quite weak. Most of my time these past 3 weeks has been spent in bed. My toes are healing extremely slowly and one looks like its battling an infection. The last thing I want to do right now is go back on antibiotics.
I've been doing some more reading on Jung. I'm hoping to start writing some articles next year. One of the things I did for my dissertation is read biographies about Jung and Freud (in Jung's case I read Memories, Dreams, and Reflections as well as the biography written by Diedre Baird). I found their personal experiences of death quite fascinating. Even more fascinating to me was how their experiences of death factored into (or not as in the case of Freud) and influenced their theoretical formulations. My dissertation committee strongly encouraged me to start writing articles so I finally plan on doing just that. I need to focus on something other than this disease.

It's good to hear that you've found a doctor you can trust, Terri. And I it's exciting that you're reading and even thinking of writing again. It's been a tough year for you. I hope 2010 is easier -- it IS a new decade after all!
All my best,

Thank you Toni. It's always wonderful to hear from you. It has been a tough year. I'm looking forward to 2010 and the next decade. Let's hope it brings us some answers...

This doctor sounds encouraging! I know you can get phenibut through bodybuilding.com. I take the Now brand L-theanine and that seems to help me some, but I havent tried the phenibut yet. Please keep us posted if the phenibut and the coro-calm work for you. Id be interested in trying them if you find they work well for you. Good luck and I am glad things are looking up!

Interesting to hear you talk about inflamation and the gall bladder problems. My ME/CFS was found to be Lyme Disease and on antibiotics has improved to nearly 100%.
One of my early symptoms and for a period of nearly 5 years was gall bladder pain especially soon after eating fatty foods. Two scans showed no sign of stones but interestingly whilst on Doxycicline the gall bladder pain went away and came back when I changed to amoxycillin (after photo sensitive reaction to doxy).
Later my sinus throat swallowing problems returmed and GP put me on Clarythromycin with amoxycillin within days Gall Bladder pain went and didn't return, along with many other symptoms.
Your comments about Inflamation and muscle problems were interesting because apart from arthritis, muscle weakness has been a major problem but now I wonder whether gall bladder and bladder problems were more to do with the muscles as too I wonder about the swallowing difficulties.
Who knows but vigilance and keeping a tab on symptoms and responses is a good aide to finding what treatments work for each of us.
Now after 2 1/2 years antibiotics I stopped 7 weeks ago and although initialy symptoms deteriorated things are picking up so fingers crossed my immune system will get in control.

Great! A doc with a sense of humour and a listening ear - what a fab combination. Wishing you peace and wellness in abundance in this holiday season.

Great to hear you like and trust your doctor Terri. That is half the battle isn't it. Sure hope you find something that helps with the early morning anxiety too....
Alleriges affect us so much don't they. I do okay eating kefir, but butter gives me stomach pain....so does peanut butter if I eat it more than once in a week. Gluten...nasty.
I sure hope that you find answers in the elimination diet too. Joel was surprised at what he was reacting to when he did it.
I think I read a few times that dairy increases inflammation too?
So much to remember!
It all sounds good, Terri and moving forward is so uplifting!
Wishing you the best here...

I have now developed mastitis in my second week, after having latching problems and cracked, bleeding nipples.
After 3 days of antibiotics, maybe I am feeling better? My breast is still hot, still red, and hurts—but not as badly. The fever and achiness has stopped.
However, my baby won't latch onto the infected side—at all. I pump, and pump, but each time it yields less and less—like 1/2 ounce, and today, nothing.
I still nurse with my good breast, but what am I to do when he has drained it and still screams for more? I know people can feed exclusively on one side, but it takes time to double your supply. I feel like I have no choice but to formula feed him what I cannot provide right now.
He is getting no nipple confusion going from bottle to nipple, which is good. But I need help here. Part of me really wants to bag nursing all together. It's painful, difficult, and emotionally draining.
Any words of advice?

A diet that includes natural sources of potassium is important in controlling blood pressure because potassium lessens the effects of sodium. The recommended daily intake of potassium for an average adult is about 4,700 milligrams per day.
But potassium should be considered as only part of your total dietary pattern. Factors such as salt intake, amount and type of dietary fat, cholesterol, protein and fiber, as well as minerals such as calcium and magnesium may affect blood pressure. Researchers attribute changes in blood pressure to certain patterns of food consumption.
For example, the D.A.S.H. (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) eating plan study found that a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, fat-free or low-fat (1 percent) milk and milk products, whole grain foods, fish, poultry, beans, seeds and unsalted nuts reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 5.5/3.0 mm Hg compared to the control diet (what the average American eats). The D.A.S.H. eating plan also contained less salt and sodium; sweets, added sugars and sugar-containing beverages; fats; and red meats than the typical American diet.Many of the elements of the D.A.S.H. eating plan --- fruits, vegetables, fat-free or low-fat (1 percent) dairy foods and fish --- are good natural sources of potassium.
Potassium-rich foods include:
- Sweet potatoes
- Potatoes
- Greens
- Spinach
- Mushrooms
- Lima beans
- Peas
- Bananas
- Tomatoes, tomato juice and tomato sauce (look for low-sodium versions)
- Oranges and orange juice
- Cantaloupe and honeydew melon
- Grapefruit and grapefruit juice (talk to your healthcare provider if you're taking a cholesterol-lowering drug)
- Prunes and prune juice
- Apricots and apricot juice
- Raisins and dates
- Fat-free or low-fat (1 percent) milk
- Fat-free yogurt
- Halibut
- Tuna
- Molasses
Is it possible to have too much potassium?
Too much potassium can be harmful in many older persons and those with kidney disorders. Potassium affects the balance of fluids in the body. As we get older, our kidneys become less able to remove potassium from our blood. Therefore, before taking any over-the-counter potassium supplement, consult your healthcare professional.
You should also ask your doctor before trying salt substitutes, because these contain potassium chloride and may be harmful for people with certain medical conditions.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Storage or Sweet?
You can choose from two types of regular onions. Sweet onions are flavorful, mild tasting, and good raw in salads or cooked. However, they don't last long in storage. Storage onions will last as long as 4 months, but have a more pungent taste and are best cooked.
