New Gear From Holden Outerwear This Season
|For 2007 we have an eco-friendlier line with 2 shell fabrics in it. One is a hemp and 100% recycled polyester fabric. It features a water-based laminate to reduce stress on the environment and workers applying it in its production. The other shell fabric in our "friendlier" line is made up of 100% recycled polyester. Because it also features the 100% recycled polyester lining, nearly the entire coat is from 100% recycled products.
Another HOLDEN exclusive and interesting fabric is our Kimono fabric. It uses a never before achieved dyeing technique that follows the traditional Japanese kimono dyeing process. It has a beautiful hand, and look. And is truly an innovation in the current dyeing process.

Many people don't think seriously about sunscreen -- or the possible consequences of not wearing any -- until they find a spot that shouldn't be there or see someone go through a bout of cancer treatment.
Once you decide that you want to protect your skin, you still have to decide what kind of protection to don to avoid ultraviolet rays, both UVA and UVB.
"What many people do not know is that the SPF of a sunscreen is only a measure of its UVB protection. Proper sunscreen must take into consideration the UVA coverage as well," said Dr. Peter Kopelson, a dermatologist and owner of the Kopelson Clinic in Beverly Hills, Calif.
He said consumers should look for sunscreen that contains one of the following UVA blockers: avobenzone (also called Parsol 1789), mexoryl, titanium dioxide or zinc oxide.
"I like titanium and zinc oxide because they filter UVA and UVB and act instantly. The downside is that they can be opaque, and people don't like their appearance," said Dr. Kenneth Beer, a dermatologist in West Palm Beach, Fla., and author of "Palm Beach Perfect Skin."
Avobenzone can also irritate skin and eyes, so check ingredient lists carefully if you have sensitive skin.
Beer said that most people who spend only a little time outdoors can use SPF 30.
But those with outdoor jobs or who spend a lot of time in the sun should go to SPF 50 and be sure to get any exposed areas. That can include the back, arms, legs and neck.
He said the most important thing is to experiment and find something that you will be comfortable using everyday -- something that isn't too greasy and doesn't cause a rash or have any other problems.
Whatever product you choose, be sure to apply it 20 to 30 minutes prior to being in the sun. That gives chemicals that react with the skin time to get going.
If you're swimming or sweating a lot, you may need to re-apply frequently. Otherwise, every two hours should suffice.

Atlanta Braves (86-65) vs. Philadelphia Phillies (77-74)
Mike Minor (9-10, 4.31) vs. Roy Halladay (10-7, 4.03)
Time: 4:05 PM, Citizens Bank Park
Weather: Clear, 85
Media: Twitter and Facebook
What a huge win for the Fightin' Phils on Friday night. They have to continue the momentum all weekend long.
This hasn't been Roy Halladay's best season, struggling with injuries and consistency for most of the season. Regardless of his performance this year, it's always good to have a guy like Doc pitch in a big game like this. Even with his struggles, Phillies fans still have faith in Roy Halladay.
Ryan Howard has a reputation for being Mr. September, but he hasn't quite lived up to that name this year. But could he slowly be starting to heat up? The Big Piece has 3 home runs in as many games.
Your Gameday Beer – Beck's
Beck's, a classic German Brewery, provides tonight's beer like a present wrapped neatly in tin foil. It's certainly not the best German beer but it is popular and widely available. Like similar mass-produced pilsners it has that traditional rice and corn beer taste, though not has strong as a Bud or Miller product. It of course goes well with Wiener Schnitzel otherwise known as veal cutlets. – By Brian
Go Phillies!

Marmeold blew save for Cubs.
AFW is lending his support to the Cubs game as it is equaly important.
Cub rally in PROGRESS B9.
The curse ends right here, right now.
Ugh, Doc. Not reliable anymore.
I don't know about it having to be this inning, but I don't think it'd work to well letting Minor settle in too long. Let alone you have to be concerned about the Braves scoring more, but I'd hate to go to the 5th or 6th down like 3-10, 4-1.
Maybe they can come right back now.
Ken Bland is the anti AFW luck wise.
Going to the 10th in chicago.
I am channeling the ghost of Harry Carray.
Trust AFW
Best Harry video on youtube.
Oh wow 3-0 Braves.
Going forward the biggest issue the Phillies will have to overcme is that in 2011 Halladay was the best pitcher in baseball.
He isnt even top 25 in 2012 and I dont knwo if it will improve in the future.
Should have won a title in 2010 or 2011.
i NEVER THOUGHT I'D HAVE MORE CONFIDENCE IN KYLE KENDRICK THAN I HAVE IN ROY HALLADAY. BUT THAT DAY HAS COME.
@ Bart these are people.
Even Halladay is a human and the total amount of career innings is going to take a toll.
Ditto with Lee.
Roy is such an all time great thoguh that there is a chance for an adjustment this off season. Although it is less likely than likely.
Cards take 5-4 lead
Not looking good for fightins.
If Cards win and they lose even the idle talk is over.
Wow. Doc. WOW.
Doc looks old
Cubs down to last out in Chicago.
. . . and there goes any hope for the wild card.
Hell, I was thinking they were gonna have to PH for Doc this early, and he didn't even have it to get through 2. Tough, tough day.
WTF??? What is wrong with Doc?
I cant stand when women write sports articles I can read it and tell if a woman wrote it, they suck at it, on another note… Roy halladay has become Jamie Moyer, he should just go home and wait until next year to take his team out of the game in the first inning, sac of shit
Cards win in 10.
Its officialy over unless fightins come back.
Ill see you guys for opening day 2013.
Rushed home from work to catch the start of the game…I'm speechless. Never thought Doc would spot the Braves a six run gain for the SECOND time this year, nor be the one to drive in the final nail on our last ditch run. Ugh!!! A six run hole is too much to ask to overcome.
In the midst of writing my post halladay gives up 4 more runs, stop calling him doc he's more like a nurses aid now, somebody shoot this asshole
I really think Dock needs some kind of surgery this off season, or maybe just needs to adjust his work out. Great pitchers do not just lose it this fast, I am thinking he is hurt or there is something wrong with him. The game is not on extra innings so I am just following it on line, did not see him pitch but this is just bad bad bad.
I will have some phath that he figures something out this off season, or hoping it is just some sort of injury. and hope for a mircle come back for today
1-2-3 inning for Horst. What the hell was wrong with Doc???
OK, Horst stopped our bleeding, now let's start theirs… GO FRANDSEN!!!
Whee, Ruf finally gets an AB!
We cannot afford to fall 4 games back at this point. Offense needs to come up HUGE in this one. Doc was just terrible.
Argh. Well, at least we're on the board. Progress is being made.
Yikes… they're bringing in Rosenberg…
That was terrible. He should have caught that.
Unbelievable… crappy-ass Rosenberg did better than Doc. The four batters he faced, Doc put them all on base twice!
No. 300!! Congratulations to Howard!! What a milestone.
You would look ridiculous predicting a comeback from 7-2 against a very good pen, but if the Phils can hold 'em at 7, I actually think they have a chance. And I don't mean just to make it interesting. That's based on do or die time, and at least fighting to the end. We'll see. But first order of business is hold the Braves at 7.
Nice job by RyHo to hit the 300 mark. That's a helluva number that 4,5,and 600, let alone 7 make look small, but it's still a tremendous achievement.
So ya have the top of the lineup next inning, with the idea to be to go through the lineup twice.
Well, that's the goal, anyway.
Putting RyHo's 300 in some kinda perspective, Thome came back today, 1-6, but a key double in still another Oriole extra inning win. That club's made a lot of experts have to order new business cards with no expert on the new one.
Things have worked out well for Jim, though he missed a lot of time, but he said he wanted to play for a winner, and never pushed to go to the O's in recent years when he's bounced around. Funny how that's worked out, even to this point. Easy club to root for. RyHo has half the homers Thome does.
I believe Howard is the 2nd fastest to 300 in history (in games played). Hea was fastest to 100, 200, and 250.
I don't care, but Kiner in 1087 games, V RyHo 1093.
We'll see if Howard can match Kiner's Korner after he stops playing. That's a more important standard to match.
I hate to agree with Beta. I think this is a first.
But since the season is over now even for the most optimistic fan (AFW)
Id sit Doc the rest of this year. For get about his last start or 2.
And id look into whats wrong.
and maybe him easing up on his body and workouts might help.
The Braves and Nats will not win a WS.
Of this I am sure.
anything else in the playoffs IDK
Boy, did Charlie just get killed by walking Prado now. Look who's up.
maybe Larry waits for the Hall induction til the Old Timers Committe votes.
Or Luck be a Lady tonight.
That warrants Bob Ryan level SHOCKED!
WHEW!!! So they're still holding at 7. We just need 1 or 2 runs an inning for the rest of the game. This can be done…
Andrew From Waldorf —- But these are just people. Everyone is entitled to a bad day. Please, Andrew, Doc needs to take the rest of the season off, like you suggested. And, now do believe that even you have more confidence in Kyle Kendrick that you have in Doc. Let's hope he gets better for next year. Old pitchers never die, they just fade away.
Personally, I'd like to take in some post game info before having a view on if Doc should not pitch again, but you can't really contest Dr. AFW's prognosis.
crap crap crap…. No runs an inning is NOT going to get us caught up!!!
Impressive math skills, young man.
2 hits in 6 innings ain't gonna get it done, either.
Well, we got one in the third and one in the fourth. If we continued to get one an inning without giving up any more, we would have tied it up in the 9th and won in the 10th. But now we've gone two more innings with no runs. The offense needs to get serious, and the defense needs to stop loading up the bases.
Careful in trying to explain yourself, I got me a calculator right by my side.
For sure, We need RUNS!!
On that, we can agree!!!
Okay, here's the deal, and I know the Phils'll prolly lose, 7 (more?)-2 and all that, but you talk about "Why I Love the Phillies" writing material.
Circa 1963 or so, Saturday afternoon Phillies baseball, down to the Cards, 10-2, headed to the bottom of the 9th, Phils got singles with 'em loaded at a better clip that the other night in the Apple, and cut it to 10-9, and of course, lost.
Excellent drama, cheap thrill that it was.
So ya hope.
Well, the good news is: Charlie has finally learned how to pull a pitcher.
(though I'm not confident that Lindbomb will be an improvement…)
WHEW!!! OK, time for the offense to show some signs of life.
Geez, if they could somehow win this game. What a fantasy. Cincy's winning, Crew lost. Cards prolly lost Yaddie for a few days, and it'd still be 3.
I love revisionist history.
crap crap crap… signs of life don't do any good if they don't end in RUNS!
AWWW!!! That was almost amazing… almost.
OK, that's definitely NOT helping
OK, not a problem. All they have to do is get 7 runs in the 9th inning. They did that against the Mets the other day.
So for the Phils in the 9th, they get 7 runs, they do it on 5 base hits, there were 3 Atlanta errors, and 2 base on balls, part of a 7 run inning that saw Ryan Howard start it with a walk, and end it with a 2 run triple.. The Phils win the ball game, 9-8, they lead the series, 2 games to none, and remain 3 games behind St. Louis, which beat the Cubs, 5-4 in 11 innings.
If this is the only comment you are reading in this thread, my suggestion is quit while you bees ahead.
Happy thoughts, happy thoughts.
Well, if you don't count Doc's two-inning crapfest at the beginning… Phils win 2-1!
Doc is clearly hurt. He should not pitch again for the rest of this season. Sorry to say, today was the nail in the coffin. I appreciate the Phillies' effort in making a run at it though! Just not our year.
Just read this post after posting the identical message on the Halladay thread. Agree with you 100 percent.
unfortunately, taps are playing at Citizens' Bank Park this evening. Our wildcard hopes are escaping, but we are going to finish above 500. Lots to cheer about despite disappointment.
"Halladay saw doctor yesterday. said he had mild spasms in his shoulder. no mri. believes he can finish"
Ladies and gentlemen, the wild card race is now officially over. I want to thank the Phillies for making this month more exciting that I ever thought would be possible back on Labor Day weekend, but I have to finally throw in the towel. This month HAS shown me that next season is in good hands, but we just started our run too little, too late. And, by the way, if a miracle happens and I'm wrong, I will gladly dance in the streets while being pelted with Phanatic dolls! See you in April!
I must add that next season is in good hands if everyone stays healthy and we don't start out with two huge holes in the lineup for the first three months!!

As I scan through the working mom's forum here I see many stories about a bad time at work but I would like to hear some good stories about pumping and work.
My pumping experience yesterday is what brought this topic to mind. While my company does not put pumping high in their priority list (lactation room? what is that?) the people I work with are VERY helpful, especially when I have to travel to other office locations (we have dozens, it is the nature of our business).
Back to my story about yesterday: I was at a meeting away from my usual location. I am familiar with this office location and know where all of the small conference rooms are located and have used them on just such an occasion many times before, but, alas, they were all in use! I ask one of the administrative assistants if there are any conference rooms I might have missed and she starts telling me where to find a cubicle to sit and do some work. I say "breast pump" and suddenly she is whisking me off to the Director's big corner office, checking to see if the lock is working properly and asking if there is anything else I need.
I have encountered this sort of helpful attitude every time I have asked for help with pumping at work. When the head of facilities at my own location saw me washing pump parts in the cafeteria HE asked ME if I needed anything to accommodate my pumping (I work in a cubicle, so have to relocate to pump). My manager has hunted down keys to private rooms for me and a co-worker has tracked down new batteries for my battery pack when I needed them.
Lets share some of our positive experiences so as not to scare some of the soon-to-be working moms out there.

Much-revised school district merger plan arrives in HouseBy JOSH OGORMAN
VERMONT PRESS BUREAU | April 27,2014MONTPELIER In the waning weeks of the legislative session, a bill that would consolidate the states school districts will finally have its day on the House floor.
H. 883 outlines a six-year plan that would consolidate the states 273 school districts into 45 to 55 education districts, each one offering pre-K-12 education, as well as access to one of the states 17 technical centers.
In addition to consolidating districts, it would do away with local school boards in favor of a single district board and would institute a common tax rate among every town in the district.
The bill expected on the House floor Tuesday began two months ago in the House Education Committee. It made its way through the House Ways and Means Committee, which did a strike-all rewrite of the bill before sending it over to the Appropriations Committee, which had a number of policy questions it asked the Education Committee to consider.
On Thursday, by a 9-1 vote, the Education Committee amended the bill from Ways and Means, and on Friday, by a 7-4 vote, the Appropriations Committee amended the bill again.
Conceptually, I dont disagree, said Rep. Robert Helm, R-Fair Haven, who voted against the bill as a member of the Appropriations Committee. However, this thing came in and was created by Education, and Ways and Means erased it all and redid it, and then we erased it all and redid it, he said.
I dont feel comfortable with the way the thing has landed in front of us like that, and the speed and the track it has been demanded to go back out again, he added.
Opposition to the bill does not fall along party lines.
Democratic Rep. Brian Campion from Bennington a member of the Education Committee voted against the bill, as did Rep. Ann Manwaring, a Democrat from Wilmington who serves on the Appropriations Committee.
We all vote on bills around education as we believe they will affect our home communities, and in our community, we have just done a joint contract between the towns of Wilmington and Whitingham, Manwaring said, referring to recent school construction and the consolidation of three buildings to two.
Our energy is just emerging from that to figuring out how we can really target better outcomes, especially at the middle and high school level, Manwaring added.
In many ways, the bill clarifies a number of questions, including that of school choice. The six-year plan outlined in the bill allows for districts to consolidate voluntarily and creates a design team that will write a statewide plan to consolidate the remaining districts.
Throughout the process, drafts of this bill have included language that would preserve school choice for districts consolidated under the statewide plan, while leaving it up to the district to advocate for a right to school choice when consolidating voluntarily. Until recently, this left open the question of what would happen when a district with school choice consolidates with one that operates a school.
By statute, the expanded district could not include communities that both have choice and designate a school, because if the opportunity to choose is offered to one student, it must be offered to all.
The latest draft of the bill both protects school choice for communities that have it, while prohibiting the imposition of choice on communities that operate a school.
To address this apparent contradiction, the bill allows for the creation of two small districts one that offers choice and another that does not that provide common services, a nod to the notion that the consolidation of districts will result in the elimination of redundancies and ultimately save money.
Also of note, the bill does not require consolidating districts to be contiguous, which would allow choice towns that are not next to each other to consolidate; the same is true for districts that operate a school.
A small district is one that does not meet the minimum requirements of either having 1,000 students or result from the consolidation of at least four districts, a provision for isolated parts of the state, panning from North and South Hero to the Northeast Kingdom.
In fact, the design team has broad latitude in making exceptions to the minimum requirements for an education district.
If other factors preclude creation of an Education District that has an average daily membership of at least 1,000 students, then the Plan may create an Education District that does not meet that criterion provided that the District otherwise meets the criteria of an Education District, the bill states.
While time is ticking down for this session House Speaker Shap Smith has set a date of May 9 to adjourn for the year Gov. Peter Shumlin has expressed support for the bill, and stated optimism that there is enough time to pass a bill that would be the first major overhaul of education governance in more than century.
Vermonters are extraordinarily frustrated that their property taxes keep going up and that school spending continues to rise beyond the level of our incomes, Shumlin said. Middle-class working Vermonters cant take much more. So Ive been working actively with both the House and the Senate leadership, and members of the committees of jurisdiction to listen to everybodys ideas and hope that we can get out of here with a bill that can at least get us started.
While Shumlin expressed his support for the bill, he also expressed opposition to the involuntary consolidation of school districts, which is a major component of the bill.
Im not saying I dont support reconfiguring the way we administer education in the districts. I think having a K-through-12 education enterprise makes a lot of sense for Vermont, the governor said. I do think that whatever the Legislature does should empower local communities to decide their future and their destiny.
Republican Rep. Heidi Scheuermann from Stowe, who is exploring a run for governor this year and expects to make an announcement before the end of the legislative session, expressed opposition to the bill.
The whole thing is a distraction from property taxes and property tax reform, said Scheuermann, who has introduced her own consolidation plan to the Legislature three times in the past six years. Last month she introduced a bill that would sunset the current education funding formula for a plan to be named later.
Vermonters want property tax reform and this is the Legislatures way of saying they did something about education, she said.
In some ways, Scheuermanns plan is similar to the governance bill, in that it would consolidate supervisory unions. However, her plan would eliminate the single state education fund in favor of regional education funds for each expanded district.
Her plan would also preserve local school boards, unlike the consolidation bill, which would create a single board for the expanded district.
Im focused on students and taxpayers, and maybe Im being cynical, but this seems to be focused on superintendents and the number of meetings they need to attend, Scheuermann said.
The bill can be read online at goo.gl/qfUftR.

DubrovnikView on map
Within ancient stone walls, the historic centre of Dubrovnik remains untouched by the 21st century with gorgeous churches, baroque buildings and bell towers lining the marble streets. Fronting the brilliant blue waters of the Adriatic and backed by mountains it's easily Croatia's most stunning destination, used as a setting in the popular TV show Game of Thrones.
HvarView on map
Popular with the rich and famous, the glitzy island of Hvar is Croatia's prime party destination with legendary nightlife, flashy bars and waterfront restaurants. The 13th century Hvar Town is one of the Adriatic's best-preserved historic towns and attracts a range of visitors including families looking for a slice of unspoiled beauty on the Mediterranean with a healthy dose of natural beauty.
Mljet IslandView on map
Covered by forest and rural landscapes of cultivated fields, neat vineyards and attractive villages, Mljet island is one of the Adriatic's most beautiful and a firm favourite on sailing routes. The western side of the island is a national park that encompasses untouched Mediterranean forests and two gorgeous saltwater lakes with an island monastery that dates back to the 12th century.
Plitvice Lakes National ParkView on map
The Plitvice Lakes National Park is Croatia's biggest natural attraction with 16 crystalline lakes coursing their way through pristine forest to create a series of cascades and ever-changing rock formations. The captivating turquoise waters are rich in fish while colourful butterflies hover over the bridges and walkways that enable visitors to explore the park.
ZagrebView on map
Marking the crossroads where western and eastern Europe meet, the capital city of Zagreb has been Croatia's cultural and political heart since the Middle Ages and continues to develop its own unique personality with grand Austro-Hungarian architecture standing beside harsher socialist structures. With excellent museums, lively cafes and cutting-edge clubs, Zagreb offers the perfect city stay.

Sensing the Sacred in Early Netherlandish Painting
Date: Saturday, April 13, 2013
Time: 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Speaker: Dr. Henry Luttikhuizen, Professor of Art History, Calvin College
Type: Lecture
Dr. Luttikhuizen examines some of the ways in which devotional paintings by Dieric Bouts, Hans Memling, and other Netherlandish artists promoted particular religious practices by evoking deep empathy among beholders. These paintings encouraged viewers to look with the eyes of their hearts. These works not only invited observers to seek the sacred but also appealed to other internal senses by offering opportunities to imagine a foretaste of the divine or a heavenly scent of things to come.
Theater | Free with admission | Stickers for ensured seating are distributed in the Main Entrance gallery starting at 3:00 p.m. Members enjoy early seating between 3:30 and 3:45 p.m.; general admission seating begins at 3:45 p.m.

Dr. Espinoza reported that Kaspar Ranch Hand Equipment, L.P. is exploring possible opportunities such as job shadowing, internships, scholarships and employment for CBC students to enhance their overall student experience while enrolled.
Tuition rates for CBC students in the 2013-2014 academic year will remain at the 2012-2013 cost of $70 per semester credit hour. However, the board approved a new general use fee of $15 per semester credit hour to be implemented in the 2013-2014 academic year. The fee is lower than similar fees at Victoria College and Del Mar College, and will only cost a full-time student an additional $180 per semester or a part-time student an additional $90 per semester. The new general use fee is expected to bring in an additional $875,000 in revenue for the college, and the fees will be used to expand and improve on technology, buildings, and student services.
Beginning in fall 2013, new and returning dental hygiene students will be required to purchase blood borne pathogen insurance at the rate of $9.31 for the academic year. The insurance will cover any expenses related to exposure to blood borne pathogens, and there is no deductible for students to meet. Being insured under this plan can potentially save a dental hygiene student hundreds of dollars versus paying out of pocket.
The board approved the 2013-2014 CBC Course Catalog. The catalog will be available on all campus sites when fall 2013 registration launches later this spring. The catalog is also available online at http://www.coastalbend.edu/publications.
During the president's report, Dr. Espinoza reported on various activities and upcoming events:
· Spring Fest was held on April 4 at the Beeville campus. Community members, in addition to CBC faculty, staff and students, attended the event and enjoyed live music, games and food. The Coastal Bend College Foundation sponsored four $250 scholarships for the event. The winners of the scholarships are Jennifer Bowen, Richard Cantu, Daniel Gregory and Candice Ornelas.
· The 2013 Commencement Ceremony will be held on May 10 at the Beeville campus inside the Peter S. Marecek Physical Fitness Center. The commencement speaker is former CBC graduate and current CBC employee Patricia Patel. The community is invited to attend the commencement and support the more than 580 graduates – an increase of over 12 percent from last year's 513 graduates.
· Board Chairman Paul Jaure, Trustee Laura Fischer and Dr. Espinoza attended the Board of Trustees Institute from March 28-30 in Santa Fe, N.M. During the institute, information about mandates that help improve student success were discussed such as required academic advising, intervention services for developmental education students and mandatory student orientation. CBC has several of these strategies currently in place and looks forward to implementing more in the upcoming academic year such as My Cougar Course – a student success course for incoming CBC students.
The CBC Foundation is looking to reenergize the CBC/BCC Alumni and Friends Association. All 2013 CBC graduates, as well as former Alumni and Friends Association members, will receive a free one-year membership as a gift from the CBC Foundation. For more information on how you can join or help, call (361) 354-2348.
CBC's Fine Arts and Kinesiology Division showcased a current CBC music student at the board meeting. Michelle Southerland, a sophomore student athlete from Katy, performed two songs for the board. Southerland will graduate from CBC in May 2013, and she plans to continue her education at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi this fall. CBC music instructor Gene Stephenson said that Southerland is one of the two best students he's ever had the pleasure of teaching during his time at the college.

Dan Birkett is a good signing for Swinton, his coaches at St.Pats always rated him a joy to work with, his best position is full back although Warrington generally played him in the threequarters, he has a good turn of pace and is also a quality goal kicker.

We in Seattle can often be thankful that our weather never cooperates with what the rest of the country experiences, especially now as a polar vortex grips the Midwest.
Our troubles might have doubled because, as Jalopnik reports, we are the No. 1 worst city at handling winter.
We could have told them that. Actually, it's gripes from Seattleites that led to them placing us at the top of that list.
Let's take a look at why we're so awful at handling what much of the rest of Americans call "winter."

SABR42 Babe Ruth, Roy Campanella, Ted Williams & Willie Mays played in Minnesota
What a treat to go into the Twins Archive room. We met the Twins curator Clyde Doepner!
I would love to go thru stuff here! Those Sporting News would be a nice start.
There is all sort of treasures in this room

Girl you have fascinating stories, love your blog! The picture of the press boxes reminds me of the ITD Tour. Great memories. Thanks for sharing.
You know Rosie, I did not know about those Hall of Famers playing in Minnesota so there I had to get sidetrack and read about it. I was remembering our ITD tour too when I was in the Twins Pressbox. It was great that Josh and the Dodgers put that together and bringing in OBF (OldBrooklynfan) was the ultimate. OK, so I was just wondering when exactly was the first ITD tour? I know I blogged about it. hmm…
It's too bad the Twins refuse to acknowledge the franchise's first 60 years in Washington, D.C., Where does one look for Senators' all-time records/marks — surely not in a Twins' media guide! (I know, they're the Twins; they only keep track of Twins accomplishments, but that's a lot of disrepect to their roots — even if they didn't make it to the playoffs for their last 30 years.) FYI, you all should have made time for a Saints game, like I did. Those 7,000 fans sure did have a good time.
yes it is too bad. You have to play tribute to your roots. After you told me you guys plans after the convention, I wished I would have planned something like thatn. Yes, it would have been fun to go see a Saints game and detour to another MLB ballpark. After I told Kent your plans to go to Kansas City for a game, he said the same. Oh well, we are learning from you all. See you Wednesday.
Oh me too! me too! I could get lost in that room of treasures.

NNS 13th finish
I loved her comment when she hit the pience of tire and said "shes hit everything else on the track so whats a piece of tire"--funny stuff. Also Buescher is an idiot and his spotter must be blind or daydreaming not to let him know she had the lane as she was against the wall and no where else to go but then again hes a one-off who wrecks alot anyway when in NNS. Danica basically apologized for the wreck, but it wasnt her fault clearly, but it did change the race outcome but Ricky & her are great friends so one might say he owes her indirectly for his win>
Also a friend of mine heard on a scanner that she actually gave her CC Tony eury Jr "what for" as she struggled with a poor setup all night and finally during a conversation with him she told him basically " since she was the one on the track driving maybe he should listen to her about the car" and reportedly Tony Jr had no response after that. Like I said I dont consider Jr Motorsports a top team or even close in my opinion as she often has a lousy car setup they cant seem to fix. On a similar note: Some may have heard her comments when interviewed after Cup qualifying 23rd, as a comparison to this, that she was happy that her Cup CC actually listened to what she had to say about the car and fixed the setup so well, she reportedly told them she was surprised how good they made the car for her--says alot for me.
Based on all this, Iam feeling better about her going to cup maybe but still concerned if she goes Cup who will be her CC as Zippy has said recently it wont be him?

George West FFA members who attended the convention were, Noah Arciba, James Baker, Derek Cantu, Shelby James, Kate Jimerson, Kailey Keach, Katelyn Keach, Ashley Keadle, Bailey Keith, Tara Liska, Blake Mosley, Cason Newberry, Quest Newberry, Garrett Pawlik, Taylor Thompson, Sarah Whitley and Bruce Williams.
The 84th annual Texas FFA Convention recorded more than 10,000 members and guests. Members of the agricultural youth leadership organization spent the week attending leadership workshops, participating in events and activities, being recognized for their achievements and serving as the legislative body for the Texas FFA Association.
More than $2 million in scholarships were awarded to FFA members and more than 1,500 members received the Lone Star FFA Degree, the highest degree of active membership bestowed by a state FFA association. More than 2,000 members were recognized on stage for their accomplishments. Cantu, Jimerson, Katelyn Keach, Keith, Quest Newberry, and Williams were among the recipients.
The Lone Star FFA Degree recognizes FFA members who have received the Chapter degree, been active FFA members for at least two years, complete at least four semesters of agricultural science at or above the ninth grade level, maintain a supervised agricultural experience (SAE) program, demonstrate their leadership skills and show a commitment to the FFA through involvement at the chapter level and above.
Members also competed for state titles in public speaking and agriscience events. In the interest of premier leadership, personal growth and career success, the Texas FFA Association also offered an opportunity for students to compete in a Spanish version Creed Speaking Event for the first time in its history. The Creed delivery and the five-minute question-answer period were conducted entirely in Spanish.
Texas FFA honored soldiers and all American military service personnel, including Retired Marine Corporal Anthony Villarreal, during the Honoring Our Heroes Ceremony. In 2008, Villarreal suffered severe burns when a roadside bomb detonated near the vehicle he was riding in on a mail and water run in Afghanistan. It was his third combat tour; the first two were in Iraq.
Members heard from National FFA Central Region Vice President Alicia Hodnik, as well as motivational speakers Judson Laipply and Chad Hymas.
Agriculture advocate Jeff Fowle addressed FFA members on the importance of sharing the positive experiences of agriculture through all media outlets. Texas Country music artist Wade Bowen also performed exclusively for FFA members.
The Texas FFA has evolved from an organization focusing primarily on production agriculture, to a broader-based encompassing organization that addresses the needs and interests of students in urban and suburban schools in addition to the rural communities from which FFA rose in 1929.
The Texas FFA is the nation's largest state FFA associations with a membership of more than 86,000 and more than 1,000 local FFA chapters. FFA gives students the opportunity to apply practical classroom knowledge to real world experiences through local, state and national competitions.

Freedom Newspapers
A critical drumbeat that Arizona Sen. John McCain isn't "conservative" enough persists into a second week after Super Tuesday gave him a dominating lead for the Republican nomination for president.
McCain is widely viewed as the presumption nominee with a commanding total of party convention delegates.
But concerns about McCain's true commitment to conservative issues among many rank-and-file Republicans helped former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee to win Saturday's caucuses in Kansas and Louisiana, and to almost catch McCain in Washington state, as well.
Those concerns prompted President Bush to defend McCain's record.
And the senator's campaign is rolling out a series of high-profile endorsements, as happened Monday with Gary Bauer, the former head of the Family Research Council.
We don't begrudge any voter or activist who doesn't accept McCain has locked up the nomination and wants to consider Huckabee or Rep. Ron Paul as the remaining alternatives.
But this debate about whether McCain is a "true conservative" quickly has become meaningless and distracting from what has been a constructive discussion about who should be elected as our next president.
Elections aren't about picking the perfect leader or representative.
No candidate is an ideal reflection of any single voter's every wish and desire.
Republicans don't get to choose between McCain and GOP heroes from the past such as Ronald Reagan or Barry Goldwater.
They can't select from a list of possible contenders who decided not to enter the race, such as Newt Gingrich.
Voters have to weigh the strengths and weaknesses of the candidates on the ballot before them.
More importantly, voters must contrast the candidates and decide which one is most likely to do the best job for the next four years.
Looking for the true "conservative" or "liberal" becomes a crutch for voters and commentators to avoid the messy reality that politics usually requires compromise in order to accomplish anything.
McCain, Huckabee and Paul, along with Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, all deserve to be judged on their own merits and against one another, not against a mythical ideology that appears nowhere on the ballot.

Attorney Sid Arismendez spoke for owners Gabriel Aleman and Mickie Achoa at the council meeting last week.
Arismendez reminded the council that the ambulance company has been providing the 911 emergency service for the city since 2006. At that time, the company was asked to step in and take over the service from Southern Cross Ambulance Service when that company stopped providing it.
"We accepted the offer with an agreement that we would finish the contract if we would be given a five-year contract beginning once the original contract between the City of Beeville and Southern Cross Ambulance concluded," the attorney said. "Our contract was approved to run from February 2007 to February 2012."
Arismendez reminded the council that in 2010 the city agreed to another extension so that the company could invest in the purchase of newer and more reliable ambulances and other equipment.
Since then the company has purchased $70,000 in upgraded heart monitors and other diagnostic tools.
"Since taking over the contract in 2006, we have never asked for any increase for rising fuel and other expenses, (although said increases are allowed to be reviewed and requested under the terms of the existing contract) other than our normal five percent increases as described in the contract," Arismendez said.
He also pointed out that the company has provided between three and five ambulances to cover the city and at times as many as six units have been operating, even though the contract called for the company to provide two units at all times.
Then Arismendez read some impressive figures for the council members. He reminded them that the company is paid $396,000 a year for providing two ambulances.
Meanwhile, the City of Taft pays $482,289 for one ambulance; Live Oak County pays between $820,000 and $850,000 for two full-time ambulances and one daytime ambulance; Goliad County pays $900,000 a year for one full-time ambulance and one on-call unit; Karnes County pays $800,000 annually for one on-call ambulance; and Aransas County pays $840,000 to provide two full-time ambulances.
"Beeville Angel Care Ambulance Service, Inc. is asking for $58,000 per month to help offset cost and to reinvest in purchasing new ambulances," Aleman said in a prepared statement read by Arismendez.
"With the increase in call volume, traffic and bad road conditions, our ambulances have taken a beating. Beeville Angel Care wants to ensure that we maintain state-of-the-art equipment, to include the latest technology and developments in the ambulance industry."
"We have never asked for any increases since 2007, but we can no longer ignore the expenses, the significant increases in call volume as well as the ever-rising fuel costs."
The statement included some interesting figures, including the fact that the $3,000 monthly fuel expenses the company paid in 2006 had risen to $14,000 a month.
Aleman said fuel costs alone are running $6,000-$7,000 every two weeks.
In 2006, the company answered 2,000 calls a year. That has increased to more than 6,000 calls a year.
Also, the company has had to write off $4,199,303.25 in uncollected bills and charges.
Aleman asked the council to consider that their office has used private funds to upgrade its radio facilities and provide local law enforcement offices with backup dispatching equipment if the agencies' equipment should fail.
The owner said his company also provides other backup radio services, and it has trained first responder personnel in all the volunteer fire departments in the county at no cost to them by using a grant the company itself obtained.
Aleman personally told council members, "It's been an honor to provide the service. We'll be here as long as the city allows us to do this."
Sixty percent of the cost of the annual contract with Angel Care is paid by the city and the remaining 40 percent is paid by Bee County.
Council members are expected to make a decision on the request at a later meeting.

weekend stuff
Last night we celebrated my husband's birthday with a few friends. I had a
panini bar and pulled out all of my black and white serving dishes. There
was really no theme, he is an adult after all, but I kept the decor real
basic so that the color was contributed by all of the food, except for the
black and white farfalle, which made a really yummy pasta salad!
The German pottery saw some foliage, as did our office desk. I picked up a
bundle of fresh flowers at our farmer's market and just two days later, one
of those roses dropped nearly all of its petals. I am seriously considering
just leaving them there, they are so pretty.
My new mini chair came in today, I'm thinking of collecting a few. This one
is actually sturdy enough for Israel to play with, a good way to teach him
about design maybe?

I am about to become a first time mom and will be going back to work about 3 months after I give birth to my daughter. My question is:
I plan on breastfeeding exclusively during the time I will be at home. Once back at work, will I get the "full" benefits of breastmilk? My concern is that I have read several places that the breastmilk is different at the beginning of a feeding, end of the feeding, in the morning vs. in the evening, and different during the many stages of her growth. If I am pumping and storing milk, won't these benefits be lost?
If so, can I simply label AM/PM milk and maybe not store so far ahead that the breastmilk is not in keeping with her current growth and needs?

ITS Calendar
"Carleton" wireless renamed to "Carleton Guest" wireless
The guest wireless network is being renamed, from "Carleton" to "Carleton Guest".
The name of Carleton's guest wireless network will be changed from just "Carleton" to "Carleton Guest".
Note: Some guests may have to reconfigure their devices to use the "Carleton Guest" wireless network.
Information about setting up your computer or other device to use wireless at Carleton can be found here:
Why the change?
There are two main reasons for this change. First, in response to feedback, we think that this will make it more obvious to campus visitors which of the wireless networks they should use. Second, it will remove some ambiguity during discussions about the larger campus network. (When someone talks about the Carleton network, they could be referring either to the guest wireless network or to the campus network as a whole).
Why does this matter?
Wireless devices (laptops, smart phones, iPads, etc.) which are registered on the "Carleton" network look for a network with that specific name. When that name goes away, the device will simply reports that it "cannot connect". At that point, the owner must tell the device to forget about "Carleton" and instead connect to "Carleton Guest". This should only be necessary once (per device), but it is an extra step that must be done.
People who have devices which move from the old ("Carleton") to the new ("Carleton Guest") network will not have to re-register that device, but they still need to choose the new "Carleton Guest" network.
Note: Carleton faculty, staff and students should not use the "Carleton" or "Carleton Guest" wireless network. Carleton faculty, staff and students should use the "eduroam" wireless network.)
When are we adding the new network?
We plan to activate the new wireless network (Carleton Guest) on March 31st. It will run in parallel with the old network (Carleton) throughout the term. All corresponding documentation (online and handouts) will be updated at that time to direct guests to use the new network (Carleton Guest).
When does the old network disappear?
The old network (just "Carleton") will disappear on Monday, June 17th
This date immediately follows Commencement weekend (by which time families and other guests are likely to have left). It is also a day or two before Reunion so that the new "Carleton Guest" network will be the only (and obvious) choice for our alums and their families. It is also before the start of the Summer Academic Programs.
If you have any questions or difficulty getting on the wireless network, please contact the ITS Helpdesk at 507 222 5999 (on campus, x 5999), or via email at: firstname.lastname@example.com
