"LEAFS ML -105......WASH +1.5 to the OVER 4.5 (parlay) +110.........JETS ML +115..............JETS/OIL OVER 5.5 +100..........all half unit plays.....BOL JKIA"
1* Take Seattle – Carolina UNDER (#375-376)
Teddy cashed another 'right side' winner with the Packers on Monday Night Football, now 67-46 (59%) in the NFL since the start of 2015. He's 45-30 (60%) in college football dating all the way back to last bowl season; rock solid long term winning results. Don't miss a single winner all weekend long!
Great quarterbacks can only play like great quarterbacks when they have some semblance of an offensive line to protect them. When these two teams met twice last year, both offensive lines were in good shape.
Russell Wilson and Cam Newton had a running game that balanced their downfield passing attack. Seattle scored 23 and 24 points in those two games, but they lost them both in SU fashion, cashing a pair of Over tickets in the process.
That was then. This is now. The Seahawks offensive line is in complete disarray right now. Three rookies started on that OL last week. They'll be starting their fifth different combo of offensive linemen this week. Offensive coordinator Darrel Bevell, talking about the struggles of his OL:"We are just trying to find the best five guys. If it changes every week, then it changes every week."
Russell Wilson got sacked six times last week, but it was far worse than that – Wilson was running for his life, quite literally, on just about every snap. That game marked the THIRD time this year in which the Seahawks offense didn't reach the end zone even once. Expecting an offensive explosion from the Seahawks this week is an exercise in optimism!
But the Panthers offensive line is in even worse shape than the Seahawks OL! Four of their five starters have been officially ruled 'Out' for Sunday Night's affair. Michael Oher didn't make the trip out West. Ryan Kalil and Gino Gradkowski got hurt last week against the Raiders. The Panthers were forced to make a signing from the Cleveland Browns practice squad just to have enough healthy bodies here. I don't care how you spin it -- you don't want to be bringing guys in from the Browns practice squad in Week 13 at Seattle!
Ron Rivera knows what's coming; talking about his offensive line woes: "It's about as catastrophe as you can get. I mean, when you look at the losses we've had this year. But our coaches will coach up the guys that are available to us." Against the Seahawks elite stop unit, playing in front of that 12th man crowd, expect Carolina, like Seattle, to struggle to score touchdowns. Take the Under.

"Sourcing" the DSEE paths & man page info into your working shell!
By Todd Grayson on Jan 21, 2009
Save time and effort managing your 6.x DSEE on \*nix platforms from the command line. Use the "sourcing" capacity of your shell to quickly append the paths and environment variables you need to manage your DS's quickly from the command line.
Any production administrator for the 6.x DSEE shoould have a complete understanding of managing their DS's through the dsadm and dsconf command lines. There are a number of other helpful command line tools and utilities needed to manage the 6.x DSEE. This article provides a quick and easy way to set your path, man page paths and settings, as well as debugging flags in a script you can "source" on demand from a new shell.

Worked fine for me, too. Interesting that the Swans and Geese page defines the differences between the swans and geese (Anserinae) and the ducks (Anatinae) in terms of their similarities.

unfound pages
Strange...it's the Environment Canada site (maybe Bean is familiar with it?). Here's the absolute homepage url (it's a pretty extensive site), but I don't have a clue how to get to the duck pages from here:
And here's a paste-up from the "Diving Ducks" page:
>Diving ducks frequent the larger, deeper lakes and rivers, and coastal bays and inlets.
The colored wing patches of these birds lack the brilliance of the speculums of dabbling ducks. Since many of them have short tails, their huge, paddle feet may be used as rudders in flight, and are often visible on flying birds. When launching into flight, most of this group patter along the water before becoming airborne.
They feed by diving, often to considerable depths. To escape danger, they can travel great distances underwater, emerging only enough to show their head before submerging again.
They feed on fish, shellfish, mollusks, and aquatic plants. Canvasbacks and Redheads fattened on eel grass or wild celery are notable exceptions.
Since their wings are smaller in proportion to the size and weight of their bodies, they have a more rapid wingbeat than dabbling ducks.<
Mebbe you guys are dabbling ducks and this is for diving ducks only!

one of the site map links says this:

which is one of those UK/US differences we've talked about before: (book for sale)
but, did we ever discuss why this particular change came about?

Makes no sense to me. Book to sell I could see but.
Do we have any idea which, if either, is original?

So I am still nursing my 15 month old son and recently nursing started to hurt - a lot! my nipples are really sore, and i thought it was just because AF was coming, but then I noticed that DS has ulcers in his mouth and on his tongue. we had thrush before when he was 9 months old, so I am thinking maybe we have it again - but the pediatrician said that thrush is not common in older babies (toddlers). last time he had it, it was white patches on his cheeks and tongue - so I am wondering if thrush also shows up as ulcers? and ever in nursing toddlers as opposed to babies? neither one of us has been on antibiotics recently either?
thanks for the help!

These easy changes could save you as much as 15% of your total annual energy bill ― up to $450 per year for a family that spends $3,000 on gas and electric.
• Replaced 1 incandescent lightbulb with a compact fluorescent bulb (CFL), we'd save 2 million pounds of CO2 per day
• Reduced their driving by 1 mile every day, we'd save 4.8 million pounds of CO2 per day
• Washed their clothes in cold water, we'd save 2.4 billion pounds of CO2 per year
• Line-dried 1 load of laundry once a week, we'd save 836 million pounds of CO2 per year
• Turned down the thermostat 2° (to 68°) in winter and up 2° (to 78°) in summer, we'd save 26 million pounds of CO2 per day
• Unplugged their electronics when not in use, we'd save at least 13 million pounds of CO2 per day
We'd save 20 billion pounds of CO2 per year, the equivalent of 2 million fewer cars on the road for 1 year.

What is in this article?:
- North CarolinaŌĆÖs Thomas Porter named Expo Farmer of the Year
- Minimizes disease risk
- State level
• Porter's farm includes 850 acres with 270 acres of rented land and 580 acres of owned land.
• Last year, his swine operation had 2,200 sows that produced an average of 23.5 pigs per sow.
• He's growing Matua bromegrass.
• The poultry operation consists of four pullet houses and four layer houses.
• He built his beef herd from five cows. It now consists of 300 Hereford-Angus cows bred to Angus bulls.
NORTH CAROLINA FARMER of the Year Thomas Porter, Jr., third from left, was named the 2011 Swisher Sweets/Sunbelt Expo Farmer of the Year during the 34th Expo, held Oct. 18-20 in Moultrie, Ga. Also shown are Expo Director Chip Blalock, Porter's wife Vicky, and J. Thomas Ryan of Swisher International. Despite a difficult economic climate, the Expo drew 1,211 exhibitors this year.
North Carolina's Thomas Porter, Jr., was named the Swisher Sweets/Sunbelt Expo Southeastern Farmer of the Year during the opening day of the Expo, being held Oct. 18-20 in Moultrie, Ga.
"I'm humbled to be named as Farmer of the Year," said the Concord, N.C., grower. "I thank God for the privilege of being able to tend a small portion of his land and taking care of his creatures. It's really something to be honored and respected for going out and doing what I love to do."
Porter's farm includes 850 acres with 270 acres of rented land and 580 acres of owned land.
He's growing Matua bromegrass. This forage produces earlier in the spring and later in the fall than tall fescue. His 110 acres of Matua yield about six tons per acre when irrigated with hog lagoon effluent. He also grows fescue-clover hay on 436 acres yielding up to five tons per acre, and his fescue-oats forage mix yields six tons per acre from 105 acres.
He has fescue-clover stands on 110 pasture acres, and he planted 25 acres of Laredo, a seeded bermudagrass variety. "We wanted a warm season grass to utilize animal waste," he adds.
Last year, his swine operation had 2,200 sows that produced an average of 23.5 pigs per sow. Pigs leave his farm when weaned at 21 days of age. He grows the swine under contract with Murphy-Brown.
"We're paid on a per head basis for weaned pigs," he explains. "We are also a multiplication unit for Murphy-Brown. This means our gilts are grown as replacement breeding stock."
He had shipped up to 1,100 pigs weekly, but now ships 931 pigs per week. "We produced more pigs than they could handle," he explains. "Now, we're shipping fewer pigs from fewer sows, yet we're making the same money we made with more sows."

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- At a Town Hall meeting held in New York City, CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum was joined by parents and consumers to talk toy safety. The discussion centered around new federal safety rules that are in place for toys that will give American consumers greater confidence when they go shopping this holiday season. Chairman Tenenbaum informed the audience that starting this year:
-federal limits for lead in paint on children's toys dropped to 90 parts per million, which is among the lowest in the world;
-toys for children 12 and younger must now be tested and certified that they meet the new lead in paint limits;
-children's toys cannot be made or sold with more than 300 parts per million of total lead;
-children's toys cannot be made or sold with more than 0.1% of six prohibited phthalates;
-and most children's toys now fall under mandatory standards, instead of voluntary ones.
"It is important to make safety a priority when making your holiday toy purchases this season," said Chairman Inez Tenenbaum. "CPSC has worked hard this year to give parents and grandparents greater confidence that the toys they seek to purchase have enhanced safety protections for children."
So far in calendar year 2009, CPSC has had 38 toy recalls, which is down from 162 in 2008 and 148 in 2007. Toy recalls involving lead paint are also down. This year there has been 14 recalls involving lead, down from 63 in 2007 and 85 in 2008. CPSC attributes this decline to increased enforcement at the ports, cooperation with other nations, consumer awareness and education and compliance by the industry with new federal safety rules.
For 2008, the Commission has reports of 19 toy-related deaths and about 172,700 hospital emergency room treated toy-related injuries (pdf) to children under 15. Almost half of these injuries, approximately 82,300 were to children younger than 5 years of age. Most of the deaths were associated with drowning, motor vehicle involvement, or airway obstruction from a small toy or small part of a toy.
Here are some safety steps consumers can take while shopping this holiday season:
-Scooters and other Riding Toys – Riding toys, skateboards and in-line skates go fast and falls could be deadly. Helmets and safety gear should be worn at all times and be sized to fit.
-Small Balls and other Toys with Small Parts – For children younger than age three, avoid toys with small parts, which can cause choking.
-Balloons - Children can choke or suffocate on un-inflated or broken balloons. Keep un-inflated balloons away from children younger than eight years old. Discard broken balloons at once.
-Magnets – For children under age six, avoid building or play sets with small magnets. If magnets or pieces with magnets are swallowed, serious injuries and/or death can occur.
Once the gifts are open:
-Immediately discard plastic wrappings or other packaging on toys before they become dangerous play things.
-Keep toys appropriate for older children away from younger siblings.
-Charging batteries should be supervised by adults. Chargers and adapters can pose thermal burn hazards to young children. Pay attention to instructions and warnings on battery chargers. Some chargers lack any device to prevent overcharging.
Along with educating the public, CPSC is equally committed to working with foreign and domestic toy manufacturers, importers, and retailers to help them understand and comply with these new requirements, while keeping their doors open and their businesses competitive.
Consumers can also view a video clip about this town hall meeting.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury or death associated with the use of
thousands of types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product incidents cost the
nation more than $1 trillion annually. CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical or
mechanical hazard. CPSC's work to help ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household
chemicals -– contributed to a decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 40 years.
Federal law bars any person from selling products subject to a publicly-announced voluntary recall by a manufacturer or a mandatory recall ordered by the

Jomo--did the gradual change happen on its own? I'm hoping something like this will happen to Elena.

I actually saw another tooth coming in last night. So, I am wondering if this is part of this constant wakefulness.
Maybe the answer isn't night wean. It's mama - get help with childcare. It's mama - don't try to do it all yourself. Get help.

Okay, so around 18 months, he was refusing the boob and screaming (in my arms - while hitting me the whole time!) for a long time before going to sleep. Since he was screaming himself to sleep anyway, I put him in his crib, which was next to our bed, and laid on the bed shushed and talked to him while he cried. If he got hysterical, I offered the breast, then put him back sleepy. Eventually, he would nurse and then go to bed without screaming. But that was hard, and I imagine, pushing the comfort zones of many moms on here. Let's just say, if he would have nursed to sleep, I would have done that instead. But he wasn't nursing to sleep. He was fighting and screaming himself to sleep every night. So this was not unlike "night weaning" except that I was weaning him into a crib instead of off the boob.

Part 2: When he finally started sleeping the first part of the night in his crib, he did not initially sleep better. At first he would only sleep three or four hours before waking (his first stretch of sleep was always his best - the hard part was getting him to sleep!). Gradually this time lengthened. For a long time he was up between midnight and two. Now it still varies, but he does sleep in there until the early hours of the morning more than half the time.

Hm. This was my question too. I was wondering if night weaning just happens on its own or if I will nurse forever all night if I don't DO SOMETHING. The selfish part of me says to try harder, and then my sensible side kicks in and remembers my lo probably needs it.
Some nights are good, (3 wake ups) and then the LO gets a new tooth and is up every hour. I live for the weekends and napping w the baby.
I have been tempted to night wean, tho we only nurse in the morning and before bed and at night since I work during the day. Also he's not getting all the fluids he needs during the day because he doesn't like his straw cup as much but doesn't want a bottle either (about 8oz of milk and maybe 3 of water in a 9 hour stretch.) . His soft spot is often lowest when he gets home from daycare and only back to normal by morning.
Good to know I can just ride it out, and hang on for now. I'll think of you ladies at night and know I'm not alone.

I don't remember exactly when my ds2 night weaned. I know sometime around age two. I had hit my wall, I could't deal with the waking every couple of hours and decided something had to change. What I did was nurse my lo to sleep then try to just pat him back to sleep if he woke up before two hours had passed. I also decided that if he fussed too much then we would go ahead and nurse. It took a long time before we were both sleeping all night, but it was the least stressful for both of us and I cannot tell you how amazing just a few three hour blocks of sleep feel.
Proud mom of 2 boys, both weaned gradually and with love.

Stock Futures Fall As Job Creation Much Less Than Expected
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Stock futures were falling Friday on signs of a sharp slowdown in the U.S. labor market.
Futures for the S&P 500 were down 9.25 points, or 8.78 points below fair value, to 1,545.25. Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average were falling 81 points, or 81.11 points below fair value, to 14,450. Futures for the Nasdaq were off 18.75 points, or 22.27 points below fair value, to 2,766.25.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the U.S. added just 88,000 jobs in March, a sharp slowdown from an upwardly revised 268,000 jobs in February. The jobless rate fell to 7.6% from 7.7%. Economists, on average, estimated that 200,000 jobs would be added to nonfarm payrolls and the unemployment rate would remain at 7.7%.
The ADP National Employment Report on Wednesday showed that private employers added less jobs in March than expected and the employment index component of the March ISM Non-manufacturing report reinforced concerns about the labor market.
Market participants continued to keep their eye on the nuclear and military threats from North Korea after the country reportedly moved an intermediate-range missile to its east coast.

April 12, 2012 —
By Michael Morris
When I was offered the opportunity to write this article about my visions for the area, my first inclination was to write about the projects I am involved in and the benefits to the community. Then it struck me that my visions depend on the American people returning to the way we were as a nation on December 8, 1941.
On the day after Pearl Harbor, the American people did what has made this the greatest nation on earth, and that is, reach down deep and rise to solve the problem. We did not wallow in self pity or explode into the blame game of which party was wrong. We banded together as a nation and as a community to defeat a mutual threat. America once again finds itself in this position, not from a world shooting war, but from a world economic war. And make no mistake about it: big business is war on a grand scale. And also make no mistake: America is losing this war.
On December 8, 1941 it was God and Country that led us to victory, and we must once again get back to the base principles of morals and ethics, hard work and pride in our work. Most importantly, we must find leaders in the community that have the courage to bring an end to the nonsense that imposed upon the very people who are driven to succeed and make employment and a great American life possible.
My vision of this great community is very simple: if the above pieces are in place we will work, invest and buy within our community to create a self sustaining local economy. The key missing infrastructure pieces are technology, energy and transportation. I have a plan.
I am currently building the technology infrastructure that will provide business class broadband to Wayne and Pike counties. This will bring the cloud and the jobs associated with it to the local area. Education levels will have to be raised to fill the jobs for the long term. Part one is in place.
An energy infrastructure should be based on the local area as well. We, as a community, should build a renewable fuels power plant, powered by local crops turned into fuel as well as wind and solar plants. To that end, my partners and I have formed Green Community Development LLC to create community owned renewable power. The community will invest, use and reap the profits from their own power generation. Part two coming up.
Transportation is going to be the hard one. While we have a good road system, a public transportation system—mainly the train from Honesdale to NYC—needs to be put into place. It can be done, but will require every asset the area can muster both politically and financially. Is it in the works? One can only hope.
Can all of the above be done? Yes, with God's grace and a lot of hard, back-breaking work and a community that works together. America can accomplish anything; we only need to work together.

Ladyboy Oah is fucking amazing and I'm not over stating that one bit. Her fresh look drives me crazy and makes me dream of meeting her for a date and all of the things we would do. First, I would take her to the finest mall in Bangkok and buy her whatever she wanted to wear for the evening. Then I would take her to a salon and let them give her the full treatment. Hair, nails, facial, pedicure…the whole nine. (click here to watch videos of Oah)
Afterwards I would take her to a fine restaurant and treat her to the finest food Bangkok has to offer. Once our dinner was finished I would take her back to my room where I would continue to pamper her even more. When we walk into the room I would have flowers waiting for her and a gift to remind her how special she is. I would then slowly strip her out of her clothes and escort her to the bathroom for further pampering.
I would run a warm bath for her and wash her hair for her (again even though we just had it done for the salon). I would love to feel it sliding through my hands as I saw how relaxed she was. I would then bathe her like the beautiful and special princess she is. I would start on her shoulders, massaging them as I lathered her. I would continue to lather her entire body while she lays back, allowing me the pleasure of providing a service to her.
After her bath I would walk her into the room and lay her naked on a bed covered with rose petals. I would have massage oil ready and would slowly massage her back, starting again at the shoulders and work my way all the way down over her incredible ass all the way down to her feet. Once she was fully relaxed I would turn her over so she was laying on her back and proceed to massage her entire front side until she is glistening from the oil and candle light.
Once she was fully relaxed I would work my way up to her private area for a special massage. I would slowly massage her upper thighs and tease her balls and cock until she had a full erection. Once she was fully hard I would stroke and caress her balls, cock, upper thighs and lower stomach until she was so horny she couldn't take it anymore. At that time I would go down and service her with my mouth while rubbing my hands all over her until she exploded her thick creamy load into my waiting mouth. I would swallow every drop then kiss her lightly before she dozed off to sleep.

January 13, 2000: Astronomers using the Hubble telescope and ground-based observatories have discovered the first examples of isolated, stellar-mass black holes adrift among the stars in our Milky Way Galaxy. They detected two of these lonely, invisible objects indirectly by measuring how their extreme gravity bends the light of a more distant star behind them. All previously known "stellar" black holes have been found orbiting normal stars. Astronomers determined the presence of those compact powerhouses by examining their effect on their companion star. These new results suggest that black holes are common and that many massive but normal stars may end their lives as black holes instead of neutron stars, the crushed cores of massive stars that end their lives in supernova explosions. The findings also suggest that stellar-mass black holes do not require some sort of interaction in a double-star system to form but may be produced in the collapse of isolated, massive stars, as has long been proposed by stellar theorists.See the rest:
Stellar-mass black holes are the compressed remains of giant, exploding stars called supernovas. These compact, gravitational powerhouses keep everything, including light, from escaping their stranglehold. Supermassive black holes, as their name implies, are monsters. They are millions to billions of times more massive than the Sun and are believed to reside at the hearts of most galaxies. Scientists aren't sure how they first formed, but they believe that these massive "eating machines" were created during the early universe. Stellar-mass black holes, on the other hand, can form at any time. Supermassive black holes are easier to detect because scientists know where to look: the centers of galaxies. All black holes, by their very nature, are invisible. But scientists hunting for supermassive black holes probe the centers of galaxies, looking for how the suspected monsters gravitationally influence the stars and dust near the cores.
The black hole's gravity acts like a powerful lens, bending the light of a background star, so that it appears as two separate images when the black hole slowly drifts in front of it. However, the black hole's gravity also magnifies these stellar images, causing them to brighten as the black hole passes in front. Astronomers used ground-based telescopes to search for these passages, called gravitational "microlensing" events. The two pictures at left identify the brightening star [center of boxed region] for one of the black holes. They then tapped Hubble and its sharp vision to pinpoint the "lensed" star. The Hubble frame [picture at right] indicates that the lensed star was blended with two neighboring stars of similar brightness that could not be separated in the poorer-resolution, ground-based images. Hubble's identification of the lensed star allowed for an accurate estimate of the mass of the black hole.
Careful analysis reveals that each black hole is approximately six times the mass of the Sun. If they were ordinary stars with this bulk they would be bright enough to outshine the more distant background star. The masses are also too large to be white dwarfs or neutron stars. This leaves a black hole as the most likely explanation.

New team announces name
Posted on June 17, 2014
When the Grand Rapids Drive take the court for their first home game in November, only a few people in the arena will understand the countless hours that went into bringing this team to West Michigan.
Derrell Haygood, a senior majoring in liberal studies, will be among those in the know.
Haygood is an intern for the Drive, the minor league team affiliated with the Detroit Pistons. He started working for the Drive in May after meeting several team executives at a networking event in March.
The team announced its name June 17 by asking local leaders, like President Thomas J. Haas, to wear Drive t-shirts for a social media campaign.
Haygood has worked to create team awareness on campus and in West Michigan, helped with sales and marketing and other tasks.
Haygood, who graduated from Southfield Lathrup, played offensive guard for the Lakers for two years, but left the team and the university for personal reasons. He considers himself lucky to have found a position with the team.
"I left Grand Valley then came back and now I'm so blessed to be a part of this," he said. When the season begins, Haygood hopes to be part of game-day operations for the Drive.
The Grand Rapids Drive will play a 48-game schedule from November to April with 24 home games at the DeltaPlex Arena.

Jose Lima and Lima Time at Dodger Stadium
Jose Lima gave the Dodgers the first play-off victory in 16 years! 16 Years! Imagine that!
It was 2004 when Jose Lima went to Vero Beach as a Spring Training invitee and he gave us that incredible playoff performance against the Cardinals in 2004.
Jose Lima was a joy to watch and we Dodger fans love that he always had time to sign autographs for us and pose for pictures. If you were at the stadium, you could easily get his autograph and take your picture with him.
I will never forget that game nor your singing and dancing performance at the VIVA LOS DODGERS festival and you singing the National Anthem.
This picture is from May 15, 2004. There I am with my hand-made scorebook. Jose Lima would sit there and pose for pictures and sign autographs on days that he was not pitching
We will never forget you Jose Lima!
Vin Scully made a comment that "Young and Old, we all will get our time and it was Lima's time"
I wore my 2004 playoff hat to Sunday's game at Dodger Stadium. I was at that game for our first playoff win in 16 games. I remember I wrote "LIMA TIME" in my rally towel and when I exited I got interviewed by KCAL Channel 9 and also the Spanish station Channel 34.
The following day, Lima was again signing autographs and I regretted that I did not take a copy of the Sport Section with me from the LA Times. There was a beautiful picture of him there that I still have somewhere in my house.
Jose Lima was at Dodger Stadium Friday night. He was shown on the Dodger Vision and we gave him a big round of applause and a standing ovation.
He had recently joined the Dodger community crew and had just opened a baseball academy in Pasadena. I ran into Ben Platts of MLB.COm and he told me that he was supposed to go to the academy and interview Lima.
What a great addition he would have made the the Dodger Community group!
Rest peace Jose Lima. Our thoughts and prayers to you, your family and friends.

Really nice pic of you and Lima, Emma. So sad that his young life was cut short like that. Condolences to his family, friends and fans.
That picture brought back so many memories of 2004 Jane.
What a great picture to cherish and remember him by, Emma.
His spirit will live on in DodgerTown…
That is a great pic of you with Lima. I was just reading an article about him the other day. It is quite a shock for him to leave this world at 37. That is scary young for anybody.
I am glad I was able to find it. Jose would sit there even on hot days. He would just have a bottle of water there and continue signing autographs and talking with the fans.
that is why we have to enjoy life while we have it.
Wow. That is really cool Emma. I've missed Lima Time since he left the game. I wish his family and friends the best.
great pic glad you got to meet him and understand the real down home Lima that was often over looked by his crazy antics. i honored him on my facebook and was sad to hear this tragic news
Thanks Jeff and Matt.
Hall of famer Dodger broadcaster Jaime Jarrin said this during his broadcasting : "Hay que sacarle jugo a la vida y no dejar que la vida te saque el jugo" which means "You have to squeeze the juice out of life and not let life squeeze the juice out of you."
Thanks Peter,
The stadium has changed a lot since then. There are extra dugout seats now and the colors of the stadium are back to what they used to be when Dodger Stadium first opened.
Jose was one of the good guys. So sad to lose him at such a young age. Other players could have learned a lot from his appreciation of the fans and how he treated people. He will be missed :O(
It's really sad. He was one of the good guys.
Gee ~ I wonder what the inside of that scrapbook looks like?
I was looking forward to him working with the Dodgers Alumni. He would have been so good working with kids.
Is not a scrapbook, is a binder for my scoresheets that I was using at that time. Now I just buy it at Big 5 Sporting Goods.
that's a great photo thank you for sharing!
He was so good to the fans and was such an eccentric character. I love how he was just so happy and light hearted all the time.
may he rest in peace
Emma, thank you for reminding us how ballplayers can be accessible to us and provide us with the deepest memories of the game. Lima was one of those guys. As crazy and extroverted as he was, Lima's zest for life will be remembered above all.
That photo of the both of you showed his zest perfectly.
En paz
Mimi and Randy,
He always had a smile for us when talking to him and always had time to pose for picures. If it was hot, he just grabbed a bottle of water and a towel and put it over his head.

A few weeks ago I wrote about my adventures of heading up to Scranton, PA and filming a music video for a friend's local band, The Great Party. I finished the video yesterday and so this week I wanted to take you behind the scenes on the post-production process. A warning for the faint of heart, this is about to get real nerdy and technical.
My good buddy and very talented director of photography, David Jacobson, shot this video on a Canon C300 camera. People don't shoot on film anymore; people don't even shoot on tape. The footage is recorded onto cards, and as they are shot, those cards are downloaded onto a hard drive. The footage then gets trans-coded from the raw files that came off the cards to a codec (file format) that is more easily edited.
In this case, we trans-coded the footage to Apple ProRes. Backing up files is very important because the cards are cycled through, wiped and then new footage is shot onto them. This is nerve wracking and instills a constant fear that you are losing footage by wiping cards that haven't been downloaded.
ProRes works well with Final Cut Pro, which is the software I currently use for editing. The other industry standard is Avid. It is very similar in process but uses different codecs.
I asked my assistant editor, Nikita, to edit the video. It was important to me that I work with an editor rather than editing the piece myself. I work as an editor with directors all the time and wanted to see the process from the flip side.
Editing is such a fascinating process. I felt the video come alive between cuts two and three. We really found the energy and feel of the video. Then it was on to tweaks, tweaks and more tweaks.
This is a small video with no one to answer to—no label, no manager, just the band and me. At times, it was a little tricky to navigate as the excitement of the shoot faded and we started getting into the nitty-gritty of making tough decisions about the edit. It was, for the most part, a resoundingly positive experience and I definitely got to make the video that I wanted to make. (Unfortunately, this is not always the case.)
It's kind of a heartbreaking process of acceptance as you sit there, literally watching the choices you made a few weeks ago play out. Of course, now you have hindsight, and with it, many other ideas. You see the things you should have done things differently, and they seem so simple, so easy. You want to reach into the screen to your past self and shake him, screaming, "Just get a close up!"
It took us about five cuts to get the video to a place where I felt we had tried everything that we could and it was finished. This is called "locking picture."
The next step is working on the color. You do this at the end so that you only have to spend time color-correcting the pieces of the shots that are actually used in the video.
It just so happened that the best colorist in the city, Sam Daley at Technicolor, was available and David and I went in for half a day. I was going for a '90s vibe and Sam took that to the next level. He pumped the greens and crushed the blacks. (Honestly, that's so much of an understatement it's impossible to express just how much control he has over each individual color. It's more like painting than anything else.)
He gave us back a ProRes file, which we took back into Final Cut Pro. We had a few effects (a binocular matte and some overlays on a TV screen) to put back on.
The band member who had recorded and mastered the album helped me fix a part in the song where I had looped the bridge to make more time for story. He pulled all the instruments out and added them back, one at a time, so that the whole thing built in a more natural way.
This video was made for YouTube, so we did some tests of sizes and qualities that would look the best. We opted for a simple 1280x720 H264 file. (H264 is a small compression that is excellent for viewing things but not good for editing.)
I sent it off to the band a few hours ago and it's going live this week. It's really very amazing that this little thing that started as an idea in my head has now grown up to be something new and exciting. It's about to go off and have a new life of its own.
Good luck, little video. Don't take any guff from anyone.

If you're a Michigan history buff or just love to discover new things at Michigan museums, then a visit to the Archives of Michigan or the Michigan Historical Museum in Lansing is sure to pique your interest! Today, Mary Detloff from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources takes us deep inside the Archives of Michigan for a look at Pure Michigan way back when.
Tucked into a light grey archival box on a shelf in the Archives of Michigan, organized neatly in manila folders, the yellowing onion skin typing paper represents the loving correspondence of a Michigan man and woman, a World War II soldier and his wife.
"Dearest, You know now that the invasion has started …" starts a letter from Charles Westie, a Michigan solider, writing to his wife Ardith on June 6, 1944 – D-Day. During the coming weeks, Westie would serve in combat in France as part of the invasion force that turned the tide in Europe in the Allied Forces' favor.
The Westie correspondence, between two ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances, shows the difficulty of the life of a soldier, waiting in England for his orders to go to battle in Europe, and his wife, waiting anxiously in Michigan for any news from her husband.
These letters, along with hundreds of thousands of documents, maps, records, photographs and other ephemera, make up the Archives of Michigan. The Archives holds more than 120 million records that tell the story of Michigan from the encounters of Europeans and Native Americans to records from Governor Jennifer Granholm.
The Archives, the Michigan Historical Museum, and the Michigan Historical Commission all marked their 100th anniversary this past year, coming into existence in 1913 with a law signed by then-Governor Woodbridge N. Ferris. The law created the Michigan Historical Commission, and directed the body to collect, arrange and preserve historical material related to Michigan and the old Northwest Territory.
"The Archives of Michigan serves as Michigan's memory. It holds the historical documents, maps and photographs of state and local governments and private citizens," said Mark Harvey, state archivist. "The Archives collections document the tragedies and triumphs of the government and individuals of the State of Michigan."
With documents dating back to 1792, the Archives of Michigan holds a vast selection of historical documents ranging from the original blueprints and architect's drawings of the Michigan Capitol Building to the papers of former state legislators, to naturalization records from the turn of the century, to more personal collections, such as the Westie letters and a rare diary from a Michigan soldier who witnessed the Philippine-American War in 1899.
The public can access materials from the Archives in a couple of different ways.
First, you can visit the Archives of Michigan, located in the Michigan Historical Center, 702 West Kalamazoo, in Lansing. The Archives has a reference room open to the public from 1 to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays. The reference room is always manned by two Archives staff members, who are available to assist visitors with records requests. Visitors of all ages are welcome, and typically include attorneys, academics, graduate students, staff from legislators' offices or state agencies, persons doing genealogy research or younger students.
Some of the more popular records in the Archives have been digitized and are available to the public on the website www.seekingmichigan.org, which is a partnership between the Archives of Michigan and the Michigan History Foundation. Seeking Michigan features 1.2 million records, including items such as searchable Michigan census records from 1884-1894, death records from 1897 to 1920 and a lot of Civil War material.
Seeking Michigan also features an online shop called Michiganology that offers unique products with a tie to the Archives, such as t-shirts and prints featuring brewery labels from early Michigan breweries, which were required to register their labels with the state. The store also sells notecards featuring old trout stamps, items highlighting the Proud Robin (once a symbol of Michigan Week) and many other items. There is also a blog maintained by archivists and staff from the Michigan Historical Museum featuring stories from Michigan's past.

How often do your 7 month old babies BF?
How long do they nurse for?
Once they turn 7 months do they drink quicker?
I am really confused because LO tends to drink for 5 mins and be finished. I try to burp then put her back but she twists and wriggle saway and then cries if I try to force her...which I don't do anymore. I figure when she's hungry she'll eat but the solids thing... i hate to feed her lunch etc if she hasn't had a good feeding..but i don't know if it's a good one or not.
Do you lo's usually drain whole breast in one feeding? mine never does and only does one side. at night she drinks a lot right before bed and during the night ( 6pm , then wakes for a 10 pm & 2 am maybe 4 or 6am...lastnight anyway) then when i try to feed her that morning she won't eat. So today just ate at 11 an dth elast time I fed her was 530 6 ish so maybe she's just going longer in between now...hard to figure out!!!
I just LOVE BF her and I guess I am afraid it will end early!!

Dordt College News
Dordt students win first place for presentation "Which Traits Attract Women"
August 19, 2013
Dordt College seniors Josh Nymeyer (Sioux Center, Iowa), Bryce Schelhaas (Leota, Minnesota), and Sam Verhulst (Milwaukee, Wisconsin) took first place in 2013 Undergraduate Class Project Competition for their presentation titled "Which Traits Attract Women: Appearance, Intelligence, Wealth, or Strength?"
The competition is sponsored by Consortium for the Advancement of Undergraduate Statistic Education (CAUSE) and is the only national undergraduate statistics project competition.
The three seniors conducted a multi-factor experiment and found that women reported being more attracted to a man's online dating profile if he suggested that he was either wealthy or intelligent. Interestingly, profiles suggesting a man was both wealthy and intelligent were less attractive to female participants.
"Their first-place finish is a testament to the excellent work, creative thinking, and general understanding of the world and how it works that is demonstrated by our students regularly in the classroom," said Nathan Tintle, Dordt College professor of statistics.
Dordt College juniors Will Kooima (Ridgecrest, California) and Narayan Nunez Blandon (Nicaragua) received honorable mention for their project "Racial Profiling in Sioux County." In their project, Kooima and Blandon found that a significantly higher proportion of individuals of Hispanic background received tickets in the county when compared to the proportion of Hispanic people living in Sioux County. They also found that some Dordt College students feel profiled, but that these students actually reported getting pulled over less often than students who did not feel profiled.
Nymeyer, Schelhaas, and Verhulst won a cash prize and their winning project which will be announced in AMSTAT News published by American Statistical Association. The winning projects can be viewed on the competition website at http://people.cst.cmich.edu/lee1c/usproc/2013_WinningPrj.htm.

Made these as part of a tapas night. Everyone loved them and I had to make extra the next time I held a tapas night to make sure everyone has as much as they wanted. Great for tapas as you can make them ahead of time. Keep the sauce seperate and just reheat potatoes in the oven to keep crispy and microwave the sauce when ready to serve. I even sometimes use the sauce for spicy meatballs.
If you visit Barcelona, you shoud go to Fulton to taste one of the best patatas bravas in the city.
Made with crunchy potatoes and spicy oil,absolutlly delicious.
The adress is c/ Fulton number 12, metro Horta, blue line(l5) 20 meters from Plaça Ibiza.
Lovely recipe! I added a Scotch Bonnet to give a bit of extra heat and the juice of half a Lemon, then blended the sauce for a smoother consistency. Also, used Coconut oil for the potatoes.. It's certainly not Spanish but it worked really well with the mixture of flavours. Will definitely be using again!
I Made this for a dinner party where i had 2 Spanish friends and an englishman who had spent most of his adult life living and working in Spain, all 3 of them said that they were the best Patatas Bravas, that they had ever had, a compliment that im sure anyone would be very proud of.
A very easy and delicious recipe with a huge thumbs up all round.
The whole point is hotness, so forget the 'pinch' of chilli powder. Coarsely-chopped green chillies stirred into to the sauce just before you set it aside overnight is a great idea for colour and flavour, but you have to know your chillies. Bird's-eyes will certainly give the dish a kick, but might cause problems with the squeamish. I use the ordinary green chillies that my local Asda sells loose. They're very mild if you cook them, but if you just marinate them overnight they should be about right for all but the most masochistic diners.
I'd personally use about 5-6 cloves of garlic here. Try this:
Take as many whole cloves of garlic as you want to use. Cut off the node (blunt) end of each, but leave the cloves unpeeled. Coat them in EV olive oil and grill them, under a moderate heat (4/6 in my electric grill), turning them occasionally, until the paper skins are starting to burn. Add them to the tomato and chilli sauce.
This recipe is really nice! However, I have to say that If you order patatas Bravas in Spain you will get a completely different sauce!
I'm spanish and I LOVE patatas bravas, here is the recipe we generally use: is easy to do and very nice!
Salsa Brava:
1/2 cup tomate frito (a tomato sauce made from pureed tomatoes, onion and garlic with a little sugar and vinegar).
1/3 cup mayonnaise (mayonesa)
1 tbsp of Ketchup
1/2 tsp paprika (pimentón dulce)
A bit of Black pepper or Tabasco sauce (salsa picante)
Mix It all and enjoy!

'Cadillac' tax could cost districts
A provision of the Affordable Care Act that doesn't go into effect until 2018 will likely affect contract negotiations for school districts and employees starting next year.
The "Cadillac tax" charges an excise fee on high-dollar health insurance plans whose annual costs exceed $10,200 for individuals and $27,500 for families. That could add $100,000 to more than half a million dollars to some local districts' expenses in the first year of the tax alone.
Over a five-year period, Marietta City Schools would have to pay nearly $5 million in excise tax on just one of its three insurance plans, based on current rates and projected increases, Treasurer Matt Reed said.
"We have had discussions within our insurance committee about the need to make some types of adjustments because obviously we, nor I'm sure any district, (cannot) afford to pay out those types of dollars without affecting the education of our students," he said.
Reed said the district expects to begin negotiations with its teacher and staff unions early in 2014.
Marietta's not alone. Schwendeman Agency Inc. in Marietta represents 29 school districts in eastern and southeast Ohio, and company President Mark Schwendeman said most will feel the impact sooner rather than later.
"Every district we have at some point hits the Cadillac tax. I would say 80 percent hit it in the first year," he said.
With some exceptions, the tax is triggered when premiums on a plan exceed $10,200 a year for individual coverage and $27,500 annually for family coverage. The tax amount is 40 percent of the difference by which the premium exceeds the threshold.
According to a policy brief by the journal Health Affairs, the goal of the tax is to help finance the expansion of health care coverage under the Affordable Care Act. Another goal is that coverage would be reduced as employers try to avoid the tax, thus lowering overall health care costs.
According to the brief, so-called "Cadillac" plans tend to have higher premiums, often paid mostly by employers, and more generous benefits. Critics say low co-pays and deductibles, if any, "tend to shield workers from the true cost of care, ultimately driving up medical costs for everyone else," the brief says.
The brief goes on to note, though, that other factors that go into the high cost of some plans include health status, age and work industry. Some adjustments were made to account for these variations, it says.
While it has yet to be determined how districts would deal with the Cadillac tax fees, Schwendeman said the most likely approach would be to have employees pay the same share of that as they do their premium.
There are only two ways for districts to avoid the Cadillac tax, Schwendeman said – focus on wellness in order to reduce claims and keep prices from rising or reduce the coverage offered.
J.D. Benson, president of the Marietta Education Association, which represents the district's teachers, knows the Cadillac tax will be a factor when the union enters negotiations next year.
"I want to try to keep things as good as we can for our members," he said. "At the same time, we have to realize the cost that is being given to the district."
Benson noted the teachers' union has agreed to forego overall pay increases the last six years to keep its health coverage in place at current levels. Board Vice President Wendy Myers, in a recent interview, acknowledged this but said she was concerned that the Cadillac tax could force the district into a situation where its employees are paying more for less coverage.
"Even when our teachers weren't getting raises, they knew they had a great health plan," she said.
In addition to Marietta, the Belpre, Fort Frye and Warren school districts have negotiations for new contracts coming up in 2014. Frontier is in negotiations now with the Frontier Local Education Association and its Ohio Association of Public School Employees, with its contracts having run out on July 31. Wolf Creek Local has contracts in place through 2015.
Based on estimates of an 8 percent increase in premiums each year, under current plans, the Warren Local school district is anticipating a Cadillac tax of $500,000 to $800,000 a year, while Fort Frye Local is expecting up to $100,000, said Melcie Wells, currently serving as treasurer of both districts.
The Belpre City school district is not expected to reach the Cadillac tax thresholds until fiscal year 2021, so the costs were not included in its most recent five-year forecast, interim Treasurer Janine Satterfield said.
Frontier Local Treasurer Frank Antill said it doesn't look like that district is in immediate danger of running up against the tax benchmarks. The annual premium for family insurance is $15,000.
"Insurance would … have to jump pretty good to get us up to that threshold" by 2018, he said.
But Antill said the district will continue to monitor where it stands in relation to the tax.
"Insurance is expensive enough, let alone have to pay a premium on top of that," he said.
Wolf Creek Local Schools is still looking at the potential effects of the tax, Treasurer Rachel Miller said.
Schwendeman said his company used premium increases of 8 percent a year to forecast the effects of the Cadillac tax for districts it serves, but he noted increases of 10 and 12 percent have not been uncommon in recent years. The tax thresholds do increase as time goes on, he said, but they are linked to the Consumer Price Index, which rises at a lower rate.
"If (the) health care inflation trend is running 8, 10, 12 percent, and the Consumer Price Index is running 2 to 3 percent, then the obvious is, that gap widens," Schwendeman said.

Reading The Lefties So You Don't Have Too
A chore I don't particularly enjoy but which does reward me with a few laughs.
Fairly typical of what I've been reading would be a fellow named Jack Turner blogging at Jack & Jill Politics, a blog which claims to be "A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics". Turner apparently took a bit of a blogging hiatus after the inauguration to take care of some personal commitments. He's now shocked, shocked I tell you to return to the political arena and find everything has gone to Hades.
When I returned in mid August, it was to a country that had clearly lost its damn mind. I turned on one cable station to hear people demanding President Obama prove he's an American citizen, an insane movement led by an Israeli citizen. I switched channels to see another group screeching in fear that Obama's health care proposal would institute death panels to kill grandma. On yet another station, Glenn Beck accuses this president of having a deep-seated hatred for half of himself. Flip again to find parents removing their children from school because they don't want their kids exposed to Obama's socialist indoctrination. And yesterday, Green Jobs Czar Van Jones resigned after extreme pressure from right wing groups and extreme tepidness from the White House that hired him to do his very important work.
Great. After a brief respite, the most accessible American political discourse has returned to fearful, hate-filled, ignorant rants of a high-volume, low-intellect minority.
Now where's the laugh in that? Well I've put it in bold for you. Mr. Turner unknowingly admits that the brief "quiet" was a respite. A respite from what?
How about 8 years of "fearful, hate-filled, ignorant rants of high-volume, low-intellect minority" on the left? It seems, as usual, that for the left, history began on January 20th of this year. However, occasionally you see the truth reflected in their words even when they perhaps didn't mean to reveal it.
Black Star News, which touts itself as "New York's Leading Investigative Newspaper", decided to weigh in on the Van Jones resignation with an unsurprising slant on the whole thing:
So we see the Witch hunt escalating. This is just the beginning.
Van Jones, the White House environmental adviser resigned last night following a smear campaign launched by Glenn Beck and other Republicans.
Jones, who is Black, was criticized as a "radical" whose views are out of the mainstream.
The Republicans dug up various incidents from Jones' background; that he once headed an organization that fought police brutality; that he was one of the demonstrators who protested the police brutalization of Rodney King; that he once described himself as a socialist; that he criticized white owned companies for dumping toxic waste in African American neighborhoods; and that he signed a petition which questioned whether the government's laxity allowed the 9/11 tragedy to occur.
Of course, Jones didn't describe himself as a "socialist", after 6 months in jail he called himself a "communist". He didn't just criticize "white owned companies" for dumping toxic waste in minority communities, he accused "white environmentalists" as well. And last, the truther petition wasn't about "government laxity", but the claim that the government knew and actually planned the 9/11 event. Communisim, racism and radicalism all rolled up into one big green ball, totally ignored or minimized by his defenders in order to call those who went after him "verbal terrorists".
Of course I'm sure BSN wasn't included in Jack Turner's "fearful, hate-filled, ignorant rants of a high-volume, low-intellect minority." Note too that while BSN doesn't overtly introduce the subject of racism into the rant, it does make sure you know that Jones is black very early in the editorial. You're then left to draw your own conclusions.
Back to Turner, who apparently learns much about American policy from movies:
If there's one thing we've learned from the movies, it's that "The United States of America does not negotiate with terrorists." Yet this White House is willing to let these psychological terrorists set the terms of the debate and negotiate from their insane positions.
Remember now, Turner has returned from his hiatus expecting reasoned dialogue to be the rule. Yet it only takes a few paragraphs for him to get into the ad hominem swing. "Psychological terrorists?"
To again make the point that selective memory seems to have infected the left, take a gander at Turner's rationalization for engaging in demonization and marginalization:
I realize I'm lumping a variety of "opposition" camps together: birthers, deathers, those who accuse the president of racism and those who accuse him of socialism. I'm grouping them because to me they all come from the same place. They're engaging in a form of terrorism. They are using psychological violence (and occasionally the threat of real violence) to pursue a political objective, and in so doing, inflicting harm upon non-combatants.
Yeah, see the "opposition" couldn't just be ideologically opposed to the sweeping takeover of America by the radical left and speaking out about it – you know, speaking "truth to power"? Nope, they have to be "terrorists" who are engaged in "psychological violence". Dissent, you see, is no longer the "highest form of patriotism". It's now political terrorism.
You can't help but chuckle when you think about how quickly that bit of rhetorical defense disappeared from the lefty vocabulary as soon as they took power.
The answer? Stomp 'em flat. Act like they don't exist. Steam roll 'em:
This White House, this administration and this president failed Van, failed its supporters and failed to honor the efforts of millions that got them into office in the first place. What's the point of having power if you don't use it? When will this White House realize that nothing it does will ever be acceptable to the loud-mouthed, ignorant minority? When will it learn that you cannot negotiate with terrorists??
Indeed, what is the point of having power if you don't use it? The radical left wants it used and used brutally. Ram the agenda through. Marginalize and demonize the opposition. Stuff it down their throats while the power is in hand and the opportunity exists. And claim to be upset and scandalized by how the "opposition" has eroded the level of debate, all the while acting like the past 8 years and the tone you set never occurred.
Selective history, selective memory and selective facts all combine to empower clueless rants like that of Turner and BSN. After vastly outdoing today's "psychological terrorists" the past 8 years in the level, depth and vileness of the attacks on the "opposition" and its ideas, it is amusing to watch them suddenly take umbrage when their sacred cows are effectively attacked.
But then, as I've often said, the left is chronically irony impaired.
5 Responses to Reading The Lefties So You Don't Have Too
Dear American Left:
The last 8 years say "hello"
Wow. So disagreeing with the President has gone beyond being un-American to being terrorism?
Will the left run out of hyperbole?
—> Will the left run out of hyperbole?
When they run out of your money and even then it will be all your fault 🙂
The left is evil.
I know my cable TV has a few channels more than once, but exactly how many versions of FoxNews does Jack Turner's TV have.
TiVO. That's how he time-shifted all that into one evening.

Today-I took my ds to the dr. I had noticed he was fussy nonstop, had loud poopy farts, and was constantly arching his back and pulling off my breast. I thought he might have thrush or an ear infection. My gut instinct was he is not getting enough to eat, because his clothes started getting bigger on him.
I found out that my ds was losing weight and that I am having a low supply issue. His weight two weeks ago was 10 lbs 3 oz his weight today was 9 lb 13 oz. I felt terrible and had to hold back the tears at the doc office.
I guess my supply started to diminish when he started sleeping in his own bed. He would sleep 8 hours at night-and sometimes I had to wake him up at that eight hour to feed him. During the day he would nurse every 4 hours. On sunday I developed a clogged duct and I notice my milk was significantly decreasing as I would pump.
Yesterday when I noticed my supply decreasing even more and that he was getting increasingly more fussy I decided to start feeding him every 3 hours.
I just feel so guilty.
His dr wants me to nurse on each side for 15-20 min and then feed him 2 oz of formula. I want to nurse as long as he wants and if he is still hungry offer him some expressed breast milk. Then I was told to pump 10 min post eating. Any suggestions or words of encouragement would be appreciated.

People have the opportunity to see storefronts of old downtown La Crosse thanks to research by a UW-La Crosse graduate.
Sophia Lorent created a display in one of the kiosks downtown highlighting the window displays Doerflinger's has had up mostly in the 1930's and 40's.
The poster is located on the corner of fourth and main streets. She says the displays did more than show off the trendy merchandise stores had to offer.
"Not only do department store window shop displays improve the image of the store itself but it improves the image of the entire downtown area and looking at the different types of displays they did I noticed there was a lot of looking at the local history of La Crosse," Lorent said.
The display will be up for a least a month and another copy will stay in UW-L's Murphy Library.

My LO has been doing well with nursing up until a week ago. He is currently 2 months old and will be 3 months on the 22nd. I had to start back work earlier than expected and he was bottled fed while I was at work, but I as able to nurse him when I got home. So on average he had about 2-3 bottles.
We took a family trip to California for 11 days and DH and I went on a 3 day trip. I was away from my LO for 3 days and he was exclusively bottle fed. When I returned he latched on immediately with no issues but very fussy at night. My letdown is very forceful and he gets fussy when it comes out too fast and he chokes.
He is now attending daycare and bottle feeds there, but nursed when I got home last night. However, he refuses to nurse and go to sleep and has become extremely fussy b/w the hours of 11pm-2am He also refused to nurse this morning before I took him to daycare. Not sure if he was still irritated from this morning. He didn't go to bed until 2am and woke up at 6am
Is this normal? I'm still pumping at work to build supply for daycare, but why is he refusing to nurse and has become uncontrollably fussy? I know that it's not nipple confusion because he nurses when he wants to

Athlete Biography
I first took up triathlon when I was 13 years old because I was looking for a challenging sport. I have a family history in sport: my father was an athlete, and both of my parents are cyclists. My parents have had the most influence on my sporting career, as they have always supported me.
I currently train in Pretoria, and during an average training week I swim for eight hours, bike for 10 hours, and run for seven hours. My personal best swim time (750m) is nine minutes, bike (20km) 28 minutes, and run (5km) 15 minutes. I . My favorite ITU race has been the Bled European cup, because it was my first gold medal in an ITU race
My triathlon goal is to represent my country at the Olympic Games. The biggest obstacle that I have had to overcome is the transition from an average athlete to a winning one. Something that the triathlon world doesn't know about me is that if you want to ask me for a favour, first give me a dark slab chocolate and ill do anything for you

I know the Indy 500 is over but, this is a cool article
No other race compares.
Like AJ Foyt said, "Drivers don't make the Indy 500, the Indy 500 makes the drivers."
It's been great to have that feeling back again in Indiana (pun intended).
How many heartbreaks has this one race caused? Ask Robby Gordon, Tony Stewart, Scott Goodyear, Michael Andretti, Marco Andretti, and lots of former winners who could've won that race at least one other time (Parnelli Jones, Mario Andretti, AJ Foyt come to mind).
Anyhow, here's a cool article I must have missed last week, talking about the oldtimers, the excitement, the history, and the return of the excitement to the track. Although I'd have to say, the 2005 and 2006 Indy 500 were pretty #### exciting in my mind.
The luster was lost 10 years prior in 1996, which ultimately gave opportunities to Tony Stewart and Sam Hornish. In those years, AJ Foyt always brought extra machines to lend just so the Indy 500 would have a full field (he also gave Janet Guthrie a machine for her 1st ever entry in the Indy 500).
Whether I watch it in person, or watch it at the track, the Indy 500 is above and beyond any race I've ever seen.

text: I just got a cold yesterday and when I tried to pump. I only got 1 oz out of one breast when I usually get 2-3. I was wondering if there was a connection between the cold and low supply? Also, should I be concerned that baby isn't getting enough and start supplementing with pumped breast milk while I get over this cold? People usually say that the baby can get more milk than the pump, but is he getting enough?
