Wyoming Cowboys Complete 1st Full-Padded PracticeLaramie, Wyo. (April 3, 2013) -- On a bright, sunny morning the Wyoming Cowboys practiced outside in War Memorial Stadium for the first time on Wednesday after conducting their previous three spring practices in the UW Indoor Practice Facility. The Cowboys fourth spring practice also marked the first in full pads for the Pokes.
Fifth-year Wyoming head coach Dave Christensen was upbeat after his team's 8 a.m. practice. He was pleased with his team's focus and performance on Wednesday.
"I was really excited about the physicalness and the thuds I heard out there today," said Christensen. "We made some noise, and we need that. I thought our kids came out and gave great effort today. Our tempo was better today. We're better than we were when we started spring ball, but I would say we're at about 70 percent of the pace at which I want us to play. I was real pleased with the attitudes of the kids. I think our mental errors were down today -- they're certainly not where we want them to be, but they were down from our previous practices. Now we'll go out Friday and scrimmage some at the end of that practice. We'll probably scrimmage about 25 to 30 plays. We'll decide as a staff what we think we need."
When asked about practicing outside for the first time this spring, Christensen replied,"We wanted to get outside. We needed to get out. We don't have any dome games this year. We want to get out as much as we can from this point forward."
Christensen was also asked if any players stood out in Wednesday's practice. Initially, he said it was hard to single out any players during practice as he was trying to watch elements of all of the drills, but then he commented, "Certainly Jordan Stanton stood out today. He made a couple thuds that rocked the stadium. I'm encouraged by that. We need more guys to hit like that. He needs to continue to work on learning his assignments. He played well against the run, but the run is 50 percent of it, he needs to learn to play well against the pass too.
"We have a lot of kids doing good things out there. We really don't have a depth (chart) at this point. We're still moving guys around, and letting guys battle for positions, creating competition. We'll slide a two in here and a two in there (to run with the No. 1 offensive and defensive units). There's just a lot of competition right now, which is what we want. Our offense ended up winning 45 to 40 today, and I thought there was a lot of good competition on both sides, so I like it from that standpoint."
In terms of how the coaching staff scored the scrimmage, Christensen said, "Every period is worth 10 points, and the 11-on-11 periods are worth 15."
The head coach was also encouraged by the improvement his team showed on Wednesday when compared to their first practice back from Easter break on Monday.
"I wasn't very happy on Monday, but I think I'm going to be pleasantly surprised today when I watch the tape," he said. "I thought it wasn't good enough on Monday, but I thought it was better today, and I think we'll be pleased when we break down the video this afternoon."
The closeness of the final score of the scrimmage, 45-40 in favor of the offense, was also evident in a number of big plays on both sides of the ball. The practice concluded with three 11-on-11 periods. During those three periods, there were 16 series run with the No. 1 offensive and defensive units facing off against one another, the No. 2 units facing each other and the No. 3 units facing one another. Of the 16 series, the defense came up with stops in 10 of the 16 series. The offense won six of the 16 series, scoring four touchdowns and gaining first downs on two others.
During the final three 11-on-11 periods, Cowboy quarterbacks Brett Smith and Jason Thompson both generated some big plays. Smith completed passes of: 31 yards to wide receiver Keenan Montgomery; 20 yards to tight end J.D. Krill; and squeezed in a beautiful nine-yard TD pass to wide receiver Dominic Rufran in the front corner of the end zone. Thompson completed a 21-yard TD pass to wide receiver Eric Nzeocha and a 45-yard strike to wide receiver Josh Smith down the middle of the field. Senior quarterback Colby Kirkegaard also completed a 37-yard pass to Josh Smith earlier in the day's practice.
On the day, Smith completed 12 of 27 passes for 157 yards and one touchdown during 11-on-11 and 7-on-7 periods, leading the No. 1 offense vs. the No. 1 defense. Thompson was 14 of 26 for 185 yards and threw one TD, guiding the No. 2 offense versus the No. 2 defense. Kirkegaard was 5 for 6 for 74 yards. Freshman quarterback Tommy Thornton was 3 of 7 for 28 yards.
The other two offensive touchdowns of the day were scored on the ground. Sophomore running backs Shaun Wick and D.J. May each scored a rushing touchdown. Wick's came from nine yards out, and May's was on a one-yard TD run. True freshman running back Omar Stover was also given some reps with the No. 1 offensive unit.
The top receivers on the day were: junior Josh Smith (five receptions for 107 yards); junior Keenan Montgomery (five catches, 93 yards); redshirt freshman Eric Nzeocha (four receptions, 41 yards, 1 TD); and junior Justin Berger (three receptions, 39 yards). The other receiving touchdown was by junior Dominic Rufran (one reception, 9 yards, 1 TD).
There were no turnovers committed, but the Cowboy defense made several big plays of their own. Junior cornerback Blair Burns was credited with two pass breakups on the day. Fellow junior corner DeAndre Jones also broke up a pass, as did senior cornerback Marqueston Huff. Huff's pass breakup was nearly an interception, but junior wide receiver Trey Norman ripped the ball loose in the end zone to prevent the turnover. Senior defensive tackle Patrick Mertens forced one fumble, but the fumble was recovered by the offense.
Following the practice, Burns was asked about he and his fellow returning starters in the secondary. Burns, Huff, and junior safeties Chad Reese and Darrenn White all started the second half of the 2012 season together and all return in 2013.
"Having everybody play together in the last half of the season, I think we all got a better feel for each other," said Burns. "We really didn't get to work with each other much during last spring, because people were playing different positions, like Darrenn (White) was playing corner at the time. But as the year went on and we started making those changes and everyone started settling into their spots, we began to get more comfortable with each other and started feeding off one another. We learned what plays each other could make and gained confidence in everyone being in the right position. Coming into this spring, I think it is going to help everyone a lot, having a better understanding of each other."
Burns also commented on what it means to him and his teammates to have 10-year NFL defensive back Renaldo Hill coaching the cornerbacks full-time this year after serving as a graduate assistant coach at Wyoming in 2012.
"He taught us a lot last year, and right now we are continuing to work on those things," said Burns. "Anytime you think you have done something as good as you can, there is always some way you can improve your technique and do it better. That is what he is trying to get across to us. You can always have your hands in a better spot, you can always shoot your hands faster. To have him out here as a full-time coach, not just a graduate assistant, to work with us one-on-one along with Coach (Chris) Tormey, who is working with the safeties, is benefitting us a lot.
"We can see how he's benefitted us every day in practice when we go against our offense. From the press skills he's taught us, to how to play off a receiver and break on the ball, to how we play when our backs are against our own end zone and how to use the short field to our advantage. He's brings all his years of experience as a player at the highest level to our practices and meetings every day. Sometimes when he first explains something to you, you might not understand exactly why he is teaching a particular concept to you. But when you see him demonstrate it and you see how it actually can give you an advantage, you realize he knows what he's talking about. If we can keep learning from him, and keep doing the things he wants us to do we should be a pretty good secondary."
Wyoming's next practice is scheduled for Friday, April 5 at 8 a.m. in War Memorial Stadium. All spring practices are open to the media and the general public.

Every other week, I leave my [almost 9 month old] LO with a sitter for bowling league. We leave around 6:10 & he goes to sleep @ 7pm. He always gets a smallish bottle right before bed, but I feed him right before we leave too. Since there's no way I can pump once I leave, though, it eats into my freezer stash.
With everything going on, I have neither the time nor the desire to pump extra outside of this to get a bottle ready for him, plus my pump stays at work these days. I am [99%] certain he doesn't need a feeding right before bed, but that's the routine, and I'm fine with it.
What's the best thing to start giving him for his every-other-week-before-bedtime drink?
I know not cow's milk yet.
He's never had formula, but I have the newborn sample packages that come in the mail, or I could buy the non-newborn stuff.
So far the only thing he's been drinking is BM and practices with a water sippy cup, but he doesn't drink it on a regular basis.

I'm doing everything I can to eat all of the junk food, swear at all of the people and spend all of the money. Yes, I'm getting in all of the stuff I'm resolving not to do once Saturday comes around.
Once 2011 rolls around, I want to spend less and save more. I want to eat less and work out more often. I want to be less spiteful and be more organized.
But most of all, I'd like to do more.
z I'd like to be more like Cory Booker, the energetic mayor of Newark, N.J. While some of New Jersey's other elected officials were on vacation, Booker was pushing cars out of the snow. He was digging snow away from other cars that were stuck.
And he used citizen pleas on Twitter to act as an emergency dispatcher for snow crews, even as some complained and expected their mayor to be there to shovel their sidewalk. Just search Twitter for @corybooker; impressive stuff.
Most in the Twitterverse were comparing Booker's use of Twitter to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who without the comparison to Booker would have looked pretty upstanding (updates on number of snowplows, stressing safe travel at night, requesting blood donors).
z I'd like to be more like Eli Manning — not because of how his New York Giants collapsed and blew a 31-10 fourth-quarter lead, but how he handled his postgame press conference.
He was the only one there — the Philadelphia Eagles, who scored 28 unanswered to win the game 38-31, must have been more popular. So he waited, and when one reporter finally showed up he started the press conference.
I just hope when I do good things, they don't get misrepresented, as Manning did on ESPN's "Come On, Man" segment, which calls people out for regrettable behavior (dropping an easy catch, etc.).
The ESPN analyst booms in the segment, "Eli, you won a Super Bowl. You don't have to wait on the media. Come on, man."
No, he didn't have to wait; he could have looked at an empty room, shrugged and left. But he did wait, after one of the most frustrating defeats of his career.
If you don't think that shows good character … come on, man.
Is there anybody you'd like to be more like? Make sure you let them know, because that recognition might be the one thing that keeps them from quitting. I'll try to be that recognizer more often too.
I just thought of another resolution — to not do predictable columns for nearby holidays. Let's see how long it takes me to break that one.

Dear wwh:
And to crossthread back a ways to mentor/mentee:
So, in the field of tocology, there's the tocologist (the doctor deliverer) and that would make either the mother or babe the tolocologee?
Still think cardiotocograph and cadiotocogram are two great words--can't believe they didn't register on the paper in my brain when I first read through Doc Comfort's first long post. Must have been having an ADD moment...

Dear WW: one more word from root "toco""
Abstract: At least a third of the women giving birth in the United States
received intravenous oxytocin for the induction and augmentation of labor.
The problem of inactive or ineffective labor remains a major challenge for
birth attendants, midwives, and physicians who practice obstetrics. Before
the discovery of oxytocin, traditional approaches to augmentation ranged
from magical and folk interventions to extensive bloodletting. Despite its
wide use the effectiveness of oxytocin augmentation has not been well
studied, and current research raises new questions about its effect on the

Dear Dr. Bill,
Many years ago, my ex-husband and I had a clinic in very rural Mexico. It was a four hour ride on washboard roads to the nearest paved road. We did have access to a short-band radio to call for a small plane in extreme emergencies, unless it was raining and the canyon was full of water rushing at a pace to carry boulders, cars, animals, etc. On this note:
It was a dark and stormy morning when Juanita came to the clinic to deliver her sixth child. We had no provisions for performing c-sections and so she labored unproductively for twelve hours. The canyon roared outside our window. No chance of crossing the torrent, even if a plane could land in the caliche mud. The landing strip was on the other side of the canyon. Juanita never cried out in pain but I could measure her contractions by her clicking fingernails. We finally started a pitocin drip. We monitored her vitals every 15 minutes all through the night. Her cervix had been scarred so badly that it would no longer dilate. Finally, my husband manually dilated her and Esperanza was born nearly 24 hours after Juanita arrived at the clinic. Soon after, the rain ceased. Juanita had her tubes tied the next month.

Dear consuelo: I have heard many sad stories about the long hard cervix. Glad your involvement had a happy ending.
Into my erratic memory popped the word "alpha tocopherol" = Vitamin E Couldn't figure out why. So I looked it up:
itamin E was the fifth vitamin discovered when researchers found that a dietary
deficiency in laboratory rats produced fetal death in pregnant females. The name
"tocopherol" was derived from the Greek words for childbirth (tos), to bring forth
(phero), and the chemical designation for an alcohol (ol). Vitamin E acts as a
co-enzyme in cellular membranes and serves as a scavenger for free radicals that
are destructive to the membrane and internal cellular components. Natural sources of
vitamin E are vegetable oils, sunflower seeds, almonds, and peanuts.

good grief! this has the potential to be worse than a food thread!
and my contributions could only be my own personal experiences with unproductive labor and the use of oxytocin .
gossip i have heard is from the word god sib-- where sib had the meaning of kinsman.. so a gossip was the god mother (or father) -- who might have attended a birth as( or to assist) a midwife, and would later talk about it.. i don't know if i want to gossip about what i know about oxytocin._________________________

Dear of troy: Quite a while ago I encountered the etymology of "gossip" being from the custom of baptizing all the new infants in a community in early England at the same time, which made them "God's sibs". So in later life they would know each other and be neighbors, and naturally indulge in spreading rumors, etc.
Our word "gossip" reflects this through its etymology: gossip from the late
Old English godsibbe, godparent or god-kin. Apart from the application of
"godparent" as a sponsor in the faith of a child, it's not difficult to imagine the
possibility of damage resulting from whispered rumors by family members or
neighbors. Perhaps Europe and the Americas no longer whip or dunk, put an
offender in stocks, or perform some variation of The Scarlet Letter, however in
many parts of the world ...these and much more severe punishments exist. The
recent report from Amnesty International which remarked on the deaths of over
1600 Pakistani women since 1990 from kitchen fires is a sad example of this.
Gossip is an exercise of power.

The Orlando Magic have agreed to trade veteran shooting guard J.J. Redick, center Gustavo Ayon and reserve point guard Ish Smith to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for guards Doron Lamb and Beno Udrih, as well as forward Tobias Harris.
In his seventh season Redick, a former first-round pick, was a coveted name on the trade market.
A 2006 Orlando draft selection, he is averaging career highs in points (15.1) and field goal percentage (45.0).
Redick is in the final year of a three-year contract.
Ayon was acquired this summer in a sign-and-trade deal and Smith was a preseason free-agent signing.

Ralph Lauren quietly shuttered its two-year-old 20,000-square-foot store last week. Other brands are expected to close boutiques in a city that has lost its luster for cash-rich mainland Chinese tourists.
The 15th-annual awards ceremony recognized the accomplishments of a cross section of beauty executives.
The decision could be a landmark ruling for Western brands in China.

Back in 1995, Sylvester Stallone played Dredd in the much-maligned box office flop Judge Dredd.
So, it was a brave decision to bring the Judge back for the simply titled Dredd 3D.
Well, 3D if you're actually in a theater screening it in 3D. And if you're not, you're missing out, but more on that later.
Dredd is based on the character who first appeared in the British sci-fi anthology comic 2000 AD, as well as many comic books since.
The title character in this film is played by Karl Urban (Star Trek, Chronicles of Riddick), and where Stallone looked like the comic book character, matching his bulk and scowl, Urban looks like his younger brother.
His small shoulders and slim physique don't match the comic book look of the character, but if you're like most folks, you have no idea what he's supposed to look like anyway, so it doesn't really matter.
And he scowls throughout the entire movie, so points there.
At the beginning of the movie, we're told all about the world having fallen into disrepair and criminals basically running rampant.
Earth is split into Mega Cities, and Dredd patrols Mega City 1 as police, judge, jury and executioner, because the courts began to be overwhelmed.
It's a violent world, where all the judges can basically control a small percent of the violent society, which mostly resides in slums.
In the movie, no one really seems violent, just homeless.
Dredd is called in after a particular nasty incident involving some criminals and a ton of blood.
He's introduced to a young woman played by Olivia Thirlby (Juno, The Wackness), who, even though she's failed all the tests to become a judge, has incredible psychic powers the force wants.
They volunteer Dredd to take her out for the day and see if she's an able candidate despite her failings.
Why they got Judge Dredd to play babysitter is anyone's guess.
And this is where the movie gets a little sticky.
Thirlby's character, Anderson, is there to be the tour guide for the viewers through this new world and to give everyone someone with whom they can relate.
She seems a bit too cutesy and attractive to even exist in this abusive future, much less be a judge.
Also, along the way, we're introduced to the drug Slo-Mo, which allows time to slow down and make the gray, sad world around you seem beautiful and vibrant.
The drug is supposedly bad.
We're never told why or what it does besides make life a little more livable. But it's being distributed throughout the city, and that's not a good thing.
A call about a three-person homicide in one of the slums sets things in motion as Dredd gets the call.
They reach the sky-rise slum and quickly find some Slo-Mo dealers and blow the door open, while one of the users takes a hit of the drug, causing the entire action scene to play out in extreme, gory slow motion.
We see bullets rip through the armed guard's body, from impact to exit, as well as the user, who decided it'd be a good idea to pull a gun on a judge and catches a bullet to the face.
This is why the movie is in 3D. We get bullets, blood and debris flying out of the screen every chance they get.
Dredd and Anderson now have to make their way to Ma-Ma, the female drug lord who presides on the very top floor, and has sealed off the building.
The action in this movie is over the top. No one is spared in this movie. Innocent bystanders get iced as much as the bad guys do.
High-powered machine guns rip through an entire floor of the building, so who knows how many men, women and children bit the dust there.
Dredd is tough as nails, though we're never really told that he may be the best judge in Mega City 1; we just figure, because he never really gets hurt or flinches when he has to go against a ton of machine-gun-wielding baddies.
Anderson, on the other hand, doesn't seem too fazed by all the explosions and gunfire either, which is a stretch for a gorgeous, wiry little girl who weighs about 90 pounds.
While nearly the entire movie takes place in the building, it never really seems claustrophobic.
The same premise was used in the Korean action film "The Raid: Redemption" (Redbox), which uses it to a much better effect than they do here.
The slow motion effects are pretty neat and definitely a gimmick to get people to watch it in 3D, but it's a gimmick that works in spades.
Dredd 3D is a relatively good sci-fi action romp, definitely better that Judge Dredd, but it lacked atmosphere as we're only told through narration about the city and never really wander the grimy streets.
It's a very good, yet unnecessary film, that is all about the journey and not so much the destination.
Dredd is playing in both 2D and 3D at Rio 6 Cinemas, 806 E. Houston St.

My LO labia has fused and the pediatrician says that this is fairly common. She prescribed Premarin for my daughter which is a conjugated estrogens cream. I was wondering if any of you other mothers had daughter's with this problem and whether applying this cream impacted your milk production. I was reading that it could impact when nursing. I am also a little concerned about applying to my daughter since she is only 2 months old and just wanted to hear if anyone else had to use this on their LO when they were this young.
Thanks for the advice.

It get's me T up no doubt..We've loss like every national t.v game man..Well except for Bullz..Man they ain't got that NY SWAGGA YET.
It kills me to say this, but he cant coach. If a player doesn't have any offensive value he is relegated to the bench. There is no other way to explain it. The last to games we get ABSOLUTELY mauled in the paint. But he keeps two 7 footers on the bench. Why Mike Why? Is there anyone in the media even asking these questions. The least the guys can do is foul Dwight he shots 50% from the line. There are other parts of basketball that I'm sure Moz and Randolph can help this out with other than scoring. Horrible coaching...
It get's me T up no doubt..We've loss like every national t.v game man..Well except for Bullz..Man they ain't got that NY SWAGGA YET.
5 star thread and +1 rep.
This is one of the reasons I can't see him coaching this team once we acquire Melo and Varejao/McGee ...
Now we know what Phoenix fans went through. We need to get rid of this guy. Who goes small in a game against Dwight? This is stupid stuff right here.
What a joke. A serious lack of basic basketball acumen on full display tonight late in the 4th quarter.
I actually grimmaced when I saw Chandler on Howard, with Gallo coming over to help. What!
Turiaf? Mozgov? Randolph? Heck, even Curry for a minute.
Dwight was 6-10 from the free throw line. Hack-a-shaq baby. Why even let Howard shoot, let alone dunk it?
Did he mot notice how we choked away any hope to win with each free throw miss. We were like 5-10 down the stretch.
He couldn't remind Stat to box Howard out?
Fields and Gallo were almost worthless on this Fla trip. You can't leave them oit there when they're giving you nothing.
I can't believe we passed on Gordon and Lopez for Gallo. If he's the best shooter in the world, then Ryan Anderson is best shooter in our solar system.
Take out Gallo the gimpy ghost. Plz!
No sense benching all our 7-footers b/9 they can't hit 3s.
Even if we have Carmelo, we aint winning. How can you win games against good teams when... Down the stretch you allow uncontested layup after uncontested layup, and dunks, while we struggle to get looks from 27 feet out? How will that ever work out in the long run?
We are 0-6 against top-4 teams in East. I think we trailed for the final 3 quarters in 5 of these 6 losses. We beat Chi twice b/9 they were 1 big man short each game. OKC and NO are not elite teams.
Knicks are now 2-5 in their last 7.
Hack a Shaq? Dude I was around when Red Holzman used to put Phil Jackson on Chamberlain to foul him late in the game. Phil Jackson has 1/50 the Talent that Randolph has. I dont understand why he cant go offensive and defensive platoons late in the game. Get Gallo out on D and put in Turiaf at least. I'm really beginning to hate this guy...
Yeah seriously...who the hell plays a small lineup against the best Center in basketball? Does that seriously make any sense? Amar'e isn't as bad a defender as people think but you can't expect him to guard Dwight Howard when he's a natural PF, not a C.
This is confusing the hell out of me...
Going into this stretch of games -- which we knew to be hugely stacked against us -- most just wanted to come out at like .500. Either way, we knew we'd lose games. And have losing streaks.
When we lose we need scapegoats; not that scapegoats can't be real issues and problems that need fixing. But you're just fooling yourself if you think MD being replaced would do anything in us winning these games.
The very issues with him are tied to why we are winning. Chandler getting 30pts and busting out this season is bc of the offense and how MD has used him.
Likewise Felton. Amare, even.
It's a double edge sword. I'd argue the edge helping us win is greater than the losing side.
It's the main reason we even have the luxury to dissect the team/coach, in a season which objectively has exceeded most any expectation.
Let's not lose sight of how piece meal this team is and just how young and necessarily expiremental the roster is. Moz, AR, etc.
***as an aside, bc i love this debate and the players, I've always felt Lopez has been overrated, and have been partially vindicated. But a legit quality starting C who's young is such a commodity in this day and age, even if he is wildly overrated he's still wildly precious as a player.
Gordon, however, I've loved since his college days. And he has been an --absolute-- beast this year. Hugely good scorer, gets to the line like flash ****ing gordon. And his 3pt shot has been off almost the entire year. IMHO, he could be close to leading NBA scorer if he wasn't so ice cold from the 3 till recently.
We definitely needed Turiaf or Mosgov out there WITH Amar'e. Stoudemire didn't play almost an entire quarter. Mosgov's main problem is his fouls, and I wouldn't mind the fouls on Dwight especially with we need Amar'e.
I understand Randolph not being in there if he's still playing the same or near the same, cause he has shot a lot of bad shots, but what's up with NO minutes for Mosgov? Just a couple minutes or so...
Sig made by Sons of Thunder
DISAGREE. Who we gonna put on D12 Mozgov? Noooooooo. Turiaf? Wont matter. Listen we are still a very limited team. We have no banger, no elite rebounder.
Lets not forget Dwight is a very good player. So he will get his. Amare canceled him out.
How many 7 footer we have. Lets no forget fouling dwight racks up team penalties. And we cant have our top guys in foul trouble. As for Gallo. I dont know which Gallo will show up.
This team is competing with the elite. As far as the non elite goes, I dont know who better than us.
Yo we play hard. Our defense is much better, but it got miles to go.
Its very tough for amare to box out when he swattin shots left and right. You cant box out while you're contesting. 4 blocks for STAT. D12 had 1. rebounding is an issue and STAT cant get just 4 rebounds but thats on him not Dantoni.
Dantoni wanted Mozgov to work but he needs time. So our best line up is 2 guards and 3 fowards. That physically wont win a championship but Dantoni is trying to bring a winning culture first. So far he doing a good job.
Magic is known as a top defensive team but Amare and Chandler got to the rack. Gallo too in the second half. So when Dwight gets there its should be a shock. he will get his. Out problem is not playing tough from jump. But we'll get there.
Tame you expectations for this team. We are not elite. And we only have problems with the elite. So we 2-5 in the last seven. Many of those teams have Finals MVPs League MVPs, Finals participants. Nobody on this team has made the All Star game as a Knick.
We are on pase for a 45 to 43 win season.
4 weeks ago these past 2 games are blowouts. Not today though.
Im not in championship mode yet. Im in playoff mode and we gonna get there. But Donnie gotta build a team. We a good team. But good teams dont win great teams do and we dont have a great team. John Starks says we 2 pieces away. I agree with him.
Im not into firing coaches. Coaches get fired left and right and the teams never improve. Coach changes matters when you are a playoff team that cant get over a playoff hump. Thats where we change. But now we need stability here more than anything.
I could agree with the fact Mike D'Antoni is exhasperating sometimes. I think Ronny should get more minutes. I don't like that 8 man rotation no matter what but... This is a limited roster. Our bench is not going to fix that problem. If we got some second unit fanatic like Hubie Brown we'd be complaining about that too.
I don't want the Knicks to become a defensive minded team. If i can choose i prefer to score 100 per game. Also, let's put things in perspective. We lost against Miami and Orlando but we're winning most of the games in our league (forget about Cleveland accident). Do you really think we would have looked much better against those two under Scott Skiles?
Right now i think the smartest thing we can do is keep D'Antoni till the end of the season. We get our playoff spot and enjoy the ride. Then, i won't be complaining if that debate starts.
By the way, who would yo like to coach the Knicks if available? Call me mad, but i would love Jim O'Brien. He's so underrated.

With interest, the Friends of the Pond Eddy Bridge have noted your article, "PA bridges repair on hold, worst in the nation" (TRR, August 29-Sept 4, 2013). Your article raises the question: If in Pike and Wayne counties alone, 113 bridges are "structurally deficient" or "need work" (of 4,479 total such bridge problems in the state), why is the Pond Eddy Bridge replacement really such a priority with its latest estimated price tag of $11.5 million? That's about $1 million each for the dozen or so families who will be the primary beneficiaries of this proposal.
We all know that the existing National Landmark structure can be restored to a reasonable loading given its usage, for far less than the projected $11.5 million. Your article also raises the question as to why the New York State politicians who support this project are so reckless with our tax dollars. Perhaps New York State should reconsider its generosity in sharing the cost of this project, or at least use the funds to help out Pennsylvania with its other 4,478 needy bridges, the ones where such help is really needed.

Do-It-Yourself Coffins For Pets and People
Dale Power, 1997
Dale Power, 1997
Pets and people are ticking time bombs of storage space issues. One day they are beloved family members, the next they are cluttering up your garage. How am I supposed to get rid of all these grandparents and birds? I can't put them outside and hope the raccoons have forgotten how to push over a trash can! I don't have time to defrost the freezer, and it's not always practical to wait until the next hunter's moon when I again must feast on innocent flesh. Agh, with all this frustration I'm starting to get why people scream when they see dead bodies.
At least that's how I thought until I got Dale Power's illustrated guide to coffin building. It shows, in amazing full-color detail, how to build a resting place for any size of dead thing. "But nothing I love ever dies!" you might be saying. That's okay, because these coffins have hundreds of ordinary household uses. Just look:
Coffin Tip #1: When a coffin book author starts talking about "surprising" uses for a sarcophagus, don't drink anything they give you.
Why shouldn't I store my extra blankets in a coffin? I can think of two good reasons ... it's fucking crazy and ghost pox. I guess it's still the only way to kill bed bugs, but after they cross over, they become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.
I get that there are a couple advantages to replacing all my furniture with coffins. Maybe I'm a vampire who likes to fall asleep in front of the TV. Maybe I have a bag of cat parts I want to hide in plain sight. But don't expect me to believe that there's a third advantage. No wait, I forgot corpse sex-- a home full of coffins would be perfect for that!
Coffin Tip #2: If you are in a friend's home and notice their coffee table and bookcase are coffins, stab them with a sacred dagger and carefully leap to the side. Their blood will be mostly made of angry crows.
From the intro, I was expecting most of the construction plans to sound like "Did you know a child's fingernails still grow when it's dead. Try holding races while you wait for your coffin glue to dry!" But it turns out making a coffin is really complicated. Once he gets started, there is no time for banter. Each of the hundreds, maybe thousands of steps is pictured ... sawing, sanding, gluing, clamping, staining-- if you buried me alive right now, I could not get any more sick of looking at coffins. But something about Do-It-Yourself Coffins for Pets and People kept me riveted, and I think it was the will-they-or-won't-they relationship between the fingers and the sawblades.
I grew up with a healthy fear of saws. My shop teacher had lost so many fingers that when he waved goodbye it looked like he was shaking a leaky water balloon. The author must have had the same shop teacher, because some of his very first advice is to always use a pushing device when you're feeding wood through a saw. And then this advice is ignored. Flagrantly and often. Every page has closeups of delicate human fingers inching towards spinning blades ... it's like when a nipple slides dangerously close to the edge of a bra -- it's so much more intense than if she just yanked her whole boob out. This book is the softcore version of a table saw accident. It's what murderers masturbate to before their parents let them watch Hostel.
Coffin Tip #3: If someone, at any time, describes a coffin as "ready for action," never die next to them without a partner. In the industry, we call this a "coffin buddy."
Grieving for Dummies
Greg Harvey, PhD, 2007
Greg Harvey, PhD, 2007
We all grieve in our own ways, except for dummies. They use this special book. Grieving for Dummies has pages and pages of cold psychological data to sooth any type of loss. Did your boyfriend die? Maybe your roommate? Your mail carrier? Your landlord? That's really suspicious, lady!
No matter what the deceased was to you, there is a chapter for dealing with the loss of him, her, or it. The book gets oddly specific and the fact that there are sometimes terrible cartoons and jokes makes it all really fucking weird. The author must be a little league coach when he's not sucking at grief counseling because he doesn't seem to care if anyone wins; he only want to make sure every possible type of grief gets some playing time.
It might seem overwhelming, but there is an exhaustive table of contents for the griever on the go. If you've lost an ex-wife to a sudden strangulation, you'll want to skip right to the chapter about whether or not you can blame God. You know, if I can keep it real for a second, the problem I've always had with books for dummies is that once your reader has agreed that it's okay for you to call them a dummy, there's no point in the author having respect for them. And the author of Grieving for Dummies doesn't-- this might actually be more condescending than Xbox 360 for Dummies.
Since the reader is an idiot, Chapter 9: The Loss of Pets lets him or her know that most domesticated animals have shorter life spans than humans, and one day you will watch that thing die. So now I get why they were laughing at me at the cake store when I paid for my fish's next 50 birthday cakes in advance, but why the fuck should that make me feel better that it's dead? If people took comfort from the stupidly obvious, they would read coffee cup warning labels at funerals.
Okay, so after hundreds of pages of comfortless facts about the miseries of misery, the grief-stricken reader has theoretically dealt with his or her loss. Then on page 267, the fucking book hits you with this:
What!? Is this to make the misery of my dead family pale by comparison? Was this included as an example of why people shouldn't draw fucking comics while they're watching cancer spread? This cartoon is so tragic that if you look at it while thinking about your dead loved one, your memory of them will look you in the eye and shit on the floor of your brain forever. Maybe this book works on idiots, but Grieving for Dummies will turn a non-dummy's grief directly into hate. And you won't believe how the book ends. Spoiler alert:
I'm not sure how appropriate this is for the occasion. "Do you miss your dead husband!? Then you'll love Sudoku!" And it's not only inappropriate, it's potentially damaging-- if your departed loved one was a fucking idiot, a Grilling for Dummies apron that says "Tickle my ribs!" is only going to remind you of your loss. You'd have to start the whole book over!

Peter Grundy explains life imaginatively and individually for clients who seek invention and imagination.
Peter Grundy and Tilly Northedge met at the Royal College of Art in the late 70s where they became interested in a visual communication that explained rather than sold things. In 1980 they started a studio to do information design in a new and creative way which they called Grundy & Northedge
Hugh Aldersey-Williams writing in Graphis in 1995 said of them;
The humble basic communication of information has never had the glamour of other areas of design. The creation of a poster casts the designer as an artist. Bringing into being corporate identity for some giant multinational company showcase the designer as a business strategist. But the design of a map for a housing project or a set of instructions for how to tie a bow tie - what sort of designer does jobs like these?
Peter Grundy and Tilly Northedge worked together for twenty-five years.
In 2006 Peter Grundy started Grundini, taking the Grundy & Northedge experience into new territory. A year later his book Grundini set out the terms, a series of five themes explored with uncompromised individuality thus defining the new era, venturing beyond information and into brand and advertising. Anywhere in fact where the complex and perplex needed explaining by simple, elegant, visual messages and ideas.

Google on Tuesday said that it would release Google Chrome operating system in an "attempt to re-think what operating systems should be". Naturally, the OS from Google will be open source and featuring just basic functionality. Potentially, Google's OS may rival Microsoft Corp.'s entry-level operating systems, but without infrastructure, such competition may not end up with Google's win.
The company itself said that Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks. Later this year Google will open-source its code, and netbooks running Google Chrome OS will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. Google Chrome OS will run on both x86 as well as ARM chips and Google is working with multiple OEMs to bring a number of netbooks to market next year.
Speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS, the company stated. Google stressed that it is designing the OS to be fast and lightweight, to start up and get end-user onto the web in a few seconds. The user interface of Google Chrome OS is said to be minimalistic, hence, it will not look like Microsoft Windows Vista/7 or Apple Mac OS.
"As we did for the Google Chrome browser, we are going back to the basics and completely redesigning the underlying security architecture of the OS so that users don't have to deal with viruses, malware and security updates. It should just work," a statement by Google reads.
The most important thing about Google Chrome OS is the fact that it would rely on Web-based applications, a completely different architecture that is currently offered by companies like Apple or Microsoft. Basically, Google Chrome OS is Google Chrome browser running within a new windowing system on top of a Linux kernel. Application developers will have to develop Internet-based apps to address Google Chrome OS as well as all the other platforms, including Windows, Mac and Linux.
Google Chrome OS is a new project, separate from Android. Android was designed from the beginning to work across a variety of devices from phones to set-top boxes to netbooks. Google Chrome OS is being created for people who spend most of their time on the Web, and is being designed to power computers ranging from small netbooks to full-size desktop systems, explained Google. While there are areas where Google Chrome OS and Android overlap, we believe choice will drive innovation for the benefit of everyone, including Google.
Thanks to its Linux roots, Google Chrome OS may lack evident disadvantages of the Android: the lack of support by software, drivers, hardware, etc. However, without a strong support from commercial software developers, Google Chrome OS will hardly be able to compete head-to-head with Mac OS or Windows, at least, in the mid-term future.

North Central College student Emily Albright of Naperville has earned a prestigious National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Fellowship.
The three-year award carries a $30,000 annual stipend and nearly $12,000 in additional funding for educational expenses and travel. Albright, a senior majoring in biochemistry, plans to pursue graduate studies in molecular biology and has been accepted to several top institutions.
Albright was named a 2009 Goldwater Scholar, the highest national undergraduate award for achievement in the natural sciences. She was selected for a summer research program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where she researched the mechanisms of DNA repair.
"Emily is one of the brightest young scientists I've had the privilege to work with," says Jonathan Visick, associate professor of biology at North Central. "It is particularly noteworthy that she won this fellowship as a senior, as most recipients are already graduate students. We are certain she will have a bright future in biomedical research."
Albright's passion for laboratory research started her first year at North Central. During summer 2007, Albright worked with North Central's Stephen Johnston, Roger and Nadeane Hruby Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences, to investigate yeast cell genetics and cellular growth associated with diseases such as Down syndrome, Alzheimer's and cancer. She presented her work at the 2008 National Conference for Undergraduate Research and the College's 2008 Rall Symposium for Undergraduate Research. They also co-presented their research on yeast cell genetics and regulation of cellular growth at the 2008 Yeast Genetics and Molecular Biology Meeting and the 2007 Midwest Yeast Meeting. Beginning in 2008 she worked with Visick—recipient of a grant from the National Institute on Aging—to support research into protein repair in bacteria and its relationship to aging.
"The opportunities I have had to do research and interact one on one with my professors have had an enormous influence on me," Albright says. "When it comes to undergraduate research, you can't beat North Central. I think my experiences at North Central have prepared me for graduate school because, in a lot of ways, Dr. Johnston and Dr. Visick have let me be almost like a graduate student. They give fabulous advice and guidance, but they also let me take ownership of my projects. I get to make a lot of decisions and do a lot of thinking. It is real research, not just following instructions from a sheet of paper."
Albright is a 2006 graduate of Wheaton Academy.
The National Science Foundation's Graduate Research Fellowship provides three years of support for graduate study leading to research-based masters or doctoral degrees and is intended for students who are in the early stages of their graduate study. The program recognizes and supports outstanding graduate students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics disciplines who are pursuing research-based master's and doctoral degrees in the United States and abroad.
The National Science Foundation awarded 1,654 graduate fellowships this year, up from about 1,200 in 2009. President Barack Obama told the National Academy of Sciences in 2009 he would increase funding to triple the number of graduate research fellowships awarded annually.

Macao, the former Portuguese colony in China, appears to be the new gambling capital of the world passing Las Vegas in revenues. In the next ten years it is possible that it could become twice as big as Las Vegas.
Two reasons exist that explain this economic boom. Macao is a port city located on the South China Sea and easily accessible for Chinese and other Asians to visit. Secondly, like Hong Kong, Macao has practically complete independence with internal affairs. This has allowed Macao is have complete capitalism while ignoring China's decreasing, but still present, socialist demands on businesses. As a side effect of their openness and lack of the Communist Party destroying opposition, Hong Kong and Macao are the only places in China with a significant organized crime.
While the newly rich Chinese may prefer Macao and the American masses flock to Las Vegas, Catholicgauze will forever envision Monaco as the gambling haven. Any place which requires women to be in dress and men in formal wear is high class. Monaco wins hands down in the environmental round by being in the Rivera while its competitors are either in the desert or industrial jungle. Also, where else can James Bond-types and Saudi princes play blackjack with millions on the table?

Five Question Friday: Dr. Bruce Bostrom
In this week's Five Question Friday, we catch up with Bruce Bostrom, MD, as he talks about his involvement with the St. Baldrick's Foundation and his love for Scandinavian folk dancing.
Children's is hosting its annual St. Baldrick's head-shaving event April 24 to raise money for childhood cancer research.
How long have you worked at Children's?
I have worked at Children's since 1988. Initially, I was on part-time "loan" from the University of Minnesota to help the cancer and blood disorders program when Dr. Larry Singher was diagnosed with cancer. Drs. Jack Cich and Margaret Heisel-Kurth had previously come to the program from Park Nicollet as well. I became a full-time Children's employee in 1992.
What are some of the conditions you treat?
In the early days, I treated all blood disorders and cancers in children and young adults. More recently I have specialized in leukemia, lymphoma and respiratory papillomatosis.
What inspired you to get involved with St. Baldrick's? Tell us about your head-shaving team.
My youngest son, Arne, organized a shaving event for his fraternity at the University of Colorado in 2007. In 2009, my son, John, and I attended the event and shaved with him. We have now moved our team, "The Baldstroms," aka "The Bald Vikings," to the event at Children's. One of my favorite "shaving" memories was in Boulder in 2009 when my sons and I climbed to the top of the Flatirons after shaving. I also like to say that the best thing about having my head shaved – after supporting childhood cancer research, of course – is the money I save on haircuts.
What do you love most about your job?
I work with a fantastic team of people who all are focused on giving the best care to patients with very serious and sometimes-fatal diseases. I also enjoy the long-standing relationships that form with patients and families.
How do you spend your time outside of work?
I like to stay active, which is a great stress reliever. My favorite activity is Nordic (cross-country) skiing. I have skied the American Birkebeiner 30 times. My goal is to do the Norwegian version along with the Swedish Vasaloppet someday. My wife, Char, is a very accomplished Scandinavian folk fiddler, and we are members of Swedish, Norwegian and Danish folk-dance groups. As a native Minnesotan, I also enjoy Twins games and going up to the cabin.

It seems to me that the symptoms for these are pretty much all the same, so how can I tell? My 3 month old spits up excessively (but not so much when she takes about 3 ounces at a feeding from a bottle). Her poop is still yellow but has gotten more watery in the last few weeks. She cries most of the time when she spits up. She doesn't cry everytime we nurse but it does happen more in the afternoons than in the morning.
Oh, and she is a little over 11 pounds, takes Zantac once in the morning and once at night.

Drum-Based Drones To Fly Over Syracuse Area
The drone aircraft based at Fort Drum have been authorized to travel over parts of Onondaga, Madison and Oswego counties, the head of the Air National Guard unit that operates the drones announced Monday.
Colonel Greg Semmel of the 174th Attack Wing, based in suburban Syracuse, said the added airspace means fewer missions will be scrubbed or delayed because of weather, WSTM TV reported.
The tv station also reports there's a move to have the drones fly in and out of a Syracuse airfield instead of Fort Drum within a year. The 174th Attack Wing flies two training missions a day.
The 174th is part of the nation's growing drone warfare capability, and has attracted critics in central New York. One of them, Ed Kinane of "Upstate Drone Action," called the expanded flying area adding "to the surveillance state."
Semmel said the drones will not be used for law enforcement, to spy on people and their homes and - as has been the policy - they won't carry live ammunition.

James Moody on Piano Jazz
December 16, 2010. Posted by Brandy Wood.Add new comment | Filed under: james moody, Jazz Alive, Piano Jazz
As part of WBGO's Love for Moody Week, we will broadcast a repeat of Moody's performance on Marian McPartland's Piano Jazz.
NEA Jazz Master James Moody was a saxophonist and flutist who got his first big break playing with Dizzy Gillespie in the 1940s. He continued to work with Gillespie and other greats throughout his long career. On this Piano Jazz session from 1997, Moody performs his "Moody's Mood For Love," "Con Alma, " and "Giant Steps." James Moody died earlier this month after battling pancreatic cancer.
Tune in Monday, December 20 at 12:08pm (just after the news) to hear this classic Piano Jazz on WBGO.
Moody's Mood from 12/31/84 - counting down to Toast of the Nation
December 15, 2010. Posted by Becca Pulliam.Add new comment | Filed under: Great Live Moments, james moody, Jazz Alive, sweet basil, toast of the nation
WBGO has been co-producing live all-night cross-country New Year's Eve specials with NPR since at least Dec 31 1982.
In 1984, James Moody opened his live NYE set from Sweet Basil in NYC with "Moody's Mood." He sounds fabulous from the git-go. I don't know why (I think it's the rhythm in which he delivers them) but my favorite five words are always ".. and then the girl says .."
Harold Mabern, Todd Coolman and Eddie Gladden are on piano, bass and drums. More great live NYE moments to come. Check back often, and tune into the broadcast this New Year's!
James Moody (1925-2010) on Big Apple Jazz
December 10, 2010. Posted by Becca Pulliam.Add new comment | Filed under: james moody, Jazz Alive
We've learned of the death of NEA Jazz Master James Moody, an essential artist and WBGO's friend, who coincidentally was raised in Newark. His music lives in and on the air here.
On November 20th, 1982, at Sweet Basil and our series Big Apple Jazz (before my time at the station), saxophonist Moody vocalized (don't miss his entrance .. well, you can't) and played flute on the Jobim bossa nova "Wave."
The piece comes to mind because of a quote in the New York Times obituary by Peter Keepnews, who writes, ". . . in the mid-1950s [Moody] became one of the first significant jazz flutists, impressing the critics if not himself. 'I'm not a flute player,' he told one interviewer. 'I'm a flute holder.'" (emphasis added)
Decide for yourself please. The group is Harold Mabern, piano; Rufus Reid, bass; and Michael Carvin, drums.
The Guardian (London) notes that JM ". . . saw a tribute to his remarkable flute improvisation with the publication in 1995 of James Moody's Greatest Transcribed Flute Solos," and goes on to say that in early 2010, Moody and his wife Linda "founded the James Moody scholarship fund for Newark youth in the town where he was raised."
On Sunday 12/19 at 6pm and Wednesday 12/22 at 6:30, JazzSet will re-broadcast Moody's 80th birthday party at the Kennedy Center. A great party!

I have had the good fortune to have been surrounded these past two years at WBGO by some of the greatest players in jazz. That's what you come to expect when you are a part of the world's most significant jazz radio station. But it's the people who have touched me for more than the music that they create who truly are a part of my heart.
I love the Moodys- James and Linda Moody.

PITTSBURGH, PA (February 12, 2009) – Four airlines at Pittsburgh International Airport (www.FlyPittsburgh.com) reported increases in passengers in 2009 compared to 2008 according to the scheduled airline traffic report issued by the Allegheny County Airport Authority. Of those four airlines, AirTran Airways led the way with an increase of passenger traffic close to 25 percent.
Including charter passengers, a total of 8,031,175 passengers traveled through Pittsburgh International Airport. That is a 7.8 percent decrease in passengers compared to 2008 (8,031,175/8,710,291; 7.8 percent). The majority of loss can be attributed to the more than 20 percent decrease in passengers by US Airways, which equals almost 600,000 fewer passengers.
For 2009, AirTran led the way posting a remarkable 24.8 percent increase (658,080/527,349; 24.8 percent). Southwest (1,509,547/1,465,277; 3.0 percent); United (778,606/773,468; 0.7 percent); and Myrtle Beach Direct Air (31,194; 27,686; 12.7 percent) also posted gains.
Airlines reporting decreases in traffic for 2009 included US Airways (2,296,561/2,880,602; 20.3 percent); Delta (892,889/978,141; 8.7 percent); Continental (524,058/553,619; 5.3 percent); Northwest (476,121; 510,663; 6.8 percent); American (430,819/451,279; 4.5 percent); JetBlue (176,971; 198,719; 10.9 percent); USA3000 (108,456/180,767; 40.0 percent); Midwest (71,708/81,315; 11.8 percent); Air Canada (32,878/44,129; 25.5 percent).
"The origination and destination traffic at Pittsburgh International Airport continues to demonstrate strength. It is how the Airport Authority was able to win Delta Air Lines' nonstop Pittsburgh-Paris flight and United's nonstop service to Los Angeles and San Francisco. With the support of Allegheny County Executive Dan Onorato and the Allegheny Conference, we have made successful proposals that added and maintained popular routes," said Bradley D. Penrod, Executive Director and CEO of the Allegheny County Airport Authority.
In 2010, American is adding flights to Chicago in the spring and increasing the size of its aircraft heading to Dallas. JetBlue will be adding service to Boston, which, by spring, will total three daily flights to one of our most important business markets. Also air fares, which have dropped more than 30 percent since the start of the decade, continue to be well below the national average.
For the month of December 2009, a total of 636,067 scheduled passengers were enplaned and deplaned at Pittsburgh International Airport. Compared to December 2008, scheduled passenger traffic was down 4.3 percent for the month (636,067/664,880; 4.3 percent).
For December 2009, six airlines showed an increase compared to December 2008, with four airlines reporting increases of more than 20 percent. United Airlines led the way for the month with 27.6 percent increase (65,699/51,486; 27.6 percent). AirTran (71,970/58,024; 24.0 percent), Southwest (118,210/114,976; 2.8 percent), JetBlue (14,984/12,198; 22.8 percent), Midwest (6,021/4,963; 21.3 percent) and Myrtle Beach Direct Air (945/749; 26.2 percent) also reported increases.
SkyWest, which began service at Pittsburgh International Airport on December 4, 2009, reported 6,377 passengers for the month.

New software battle coming to smart TVsap photo
Dish president and CEO Joe Clayton talks to the media during the Dish news conference at the International Consumer Electronics Show Monday in Las Vegas.
NEW YORK More choice and confusion is coming to the next generation of TVs.
At least three new software systems were announced Monday for Internet-connected television sets, which let viewers watch Internet video and interact with friends online on the big screen. The new smart TV operating systems will compete with software already available from Google and individual TV manufacturers.
The slew of options is in contrast to the smartphone market, where just two operating systems Apples iOS and Googles Android dominate.
But more consumer choice will also mean more difficulties for services such as Hulu and Netflix to write apps. As a result, app selection on any given TV will be limited.
To fully enjoy the range of Internet video on the TV, many consumers will still have to buy a separate device such as Apple TV and Roku and then figure out how to install it. Those devices cost about $100, though Google sells a $35 Chromecast device with fewer features.
TV manufacturers have been pushing smart TVs to give consumers a reason to upgrade their sets more frequently. The Internet capability also keeps the TV central to households, even as people spend more time watching Internet video.
But so far, apps on smart TVs arent as extensive as whats found on phones and stand-alone streaming devices, in part because no one operating system has enough users to make it a priority for app makers.
I keep hoping we will see convergence, said Colin Dixon, chief analyst at nScreen Media, a research firm in Sunnyvale, Calif. Unfortunately we keep seeing the number of operating systems increasing, not decreasing.
Chet Kanojia, whose Aereo online television service has been trying to expand onto more devices, said the tendency for TV set manufacturers to differentiate their systems with unique features turns app development into a royal pain. Thats because Aereos engineers have to write new apps for each one.MORE IN World/National BusinessWASHINGTON Long-term U.S. Full StoryNEW YORK Its not just the musical Hairspray that will air live on NBC tonight.

Vt. Tax Dept. notes homestead declaration changeFebruary 01,2013
MONTPELIER The Vermont Department of Taxes is reminding residents that theres a change in the tax law regarding homestead declarations.
In the past, property owners had to file the declaration whenever there was a change in ownership or status of the property.
But starting this year, property owners must file such declarations annually by tax day, April 15.
Property in Vermont is considered nonresidential until it is claimed as the owners homestead.
A property owner must file a homestead declaration if the owner owns and occupies the property as his or her primary residence and is domiciled in Vermont.
Tax Commissioner Mary Peterson says filling the declaration is critical to paying the correct amount of tax.MORE IN This Just InInn owner faces

Calling all artists! We're super excited to announce the HEXBUG Nano V2 #theycanclimb coloring contest!
In the interest of full disclosure, here's what happened: We hired an eccentric, internationally-renowned artist (and HEXBUG enthusiast) to create 8 colorful drawings crawling with our gravity-defying Nano V2 bugs. However, our artist received a last-minute, once in a lifetime opportunity, to climb Mount Everest's Khumbu Icefall that left him unable to color in his original black and white outlines. After several days of scratching our heads and playing with Nano V2s, we came up with a plan to complete the artwork – launch a coloring contest and let the super–talented HEXBUG fans flex their creative muscles!
Participation in the Nano V2 contest is simple: select your favorite outline below, color it, and submit it to the HEXBUG review team. The coloring contest will run from 12:00 A.M. CST on August 19 through 11:59:59 P.M. CST on September 22, 2013. Entries can be submitted via email or regular mail.
Similar to the Nano V2 #theycanclimb video/photo contest, every entrant will receive a $5 promo code off their next purchase on www.HEXBUG.com for submitting a completed coloring page. Limit to one entry per week. To receive your $5 promotional code, simply send us an email, with your drawing attached, to firstname.lastname@example.com, and we will reply to your email with your code. Or, you can send us your drawing via mail to Innovation First International, Attn: They Can Climb Coloring Contest, 1519 Interstate 30 West, Greenville, Texas 75402. Be sure to include child's name, age, plus a parent or guardian's street address, phone number and e-mail address so that winners may be notified.
Every week we will spotlight some of the best submissions on our website www.nanov2.com, which we may also share on our social media channels. There will be two categories of winners – an "under 6 years of age" and a "7-12 years of age" category. At the end of the contest we will announce 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners in each category, who will win the following prizes:
- First Place – A Nano V2 Master Collection (one of every set)
- Second Place – A $50 promo code to HEXBUG.com
- Third Place – A $30 promo code to HEXBUG.com
This contest is open to anyone living in the 50 US states as well as Canada. For more information, official rules, and to download your favorite coloring pages for the Nano V2 #theycanclimb coloring contest, visit http://www.nanov2.com/coloringcontestrules.

I have been dealing with oversupply and OALD for a couple of weeks now. I have been block feeding by only offering one breast per feeding (so its a 2 to 3 hour block depending on the time of day). It seems that the oversupply might be getting better - I am not getting painfullly full between feedings nor am I leaking anymore. However, the OALD seems to be the same. Can you have OALD without oversupply or do the two go hand in hand?
If I still have OALD should I increase the block - go to 4 hours per side? DD has recently had problems sleeping (falling asleep, staying asleep) and I wonder if it is because she doesn't get enough hind milk to keep her satisfied. Would increasing the block help this?
DH likes to give DD a bottle occasionally. I pump when he does this, but never get enough for a bottle. Is there another time that I could pump safely without increasing suppy?
Thanks in advance for the help!
