Three arrested in 252-pound marijuana case
Two Vermont men and another with ties to the state have been charged with conspiracy to distribute 252 pounds of marijuana worth more than $500,000 that had been shipped cross-country from California.
Trevor Burton, of Duxbury, and Mark Girardi, of North Hero, were charged with felony counts after a traffic stop in Illinois that intercepted the shipment. A third man, Eric Durand, of California, who had been staying with Burton in Duxbury, was also arrested.
The marijuana, according to the affidavit, is valued at about $2,000 per pound, making the intercepted shipment worth $504,000.
The events leading to the arrests began Monday when authorities in Illinois stopped a Ford F350 hauling an 18-foot flatbed car hauler and the driver admitted that the trailer had marijuana in a false floor that was en route from California to Vermont, according to the affidavit.
The driver, who was not named, cooperated, and police drove the vehicle and trailer the rest of the way to Vermont, where it was met by agents with the Drug Enforcement Agency.
Once in Vermont on Tuesday, the alleged recipient of the shipment told the driver to leave the trailer at some property in Jericho where an elderly couple didnt pay close attention, police said.
DEA agents, however, were not comfortable leaving the trailer there so they had the driver tell the recipient, later identified as Burton, he couldnt unhook the trailer and to meet him, police said.
But Burton instead sent a woman, known as K.N., whom he described as his girlfriend, and another person identified as Durand, to meet the driver.
According to the affidavit, Durand told police he was originally from Starksboro and said he had just flown to Vermont from California.
Durand and K.N. were blindfolded by Burton every time they had gone to his house, they told police.
So police extended the ruse by having the woman, who agreed to cooperate, call Burton and tell him police had picked her up for driving under the influence and could be released to a friend but could not drive home.
Burton then told an officer on the phone she could be dropped off at his residence at 416 Maple St. in Jericho.
Officers went to that address and found Burton waiting at the end of a long driveway and took him to custody, the affidavit said.
Wednesday, the shipper, identified only as Carl in the affidavit, called the driver and said he had heard about the arrest of Burton and Durand and arranged to have another man pick up the shipment.
Police, still using the driver, arranged to have Girardi, a former skateboard shop owner, meet them in South Burlington, where they took Girardi into custody.
Police said they were able to determine that the driver was expecting to be paid $30,000 for driving the shipment across country.
Burton and Durand both made an initial appearance Wednesday, according to court documents.
Durand was released on his own recognizance with conditions, while Burtons bond hearing was set for Thursday.
Both men are set to be arraigned April 9 in Burlington.
Girardi had not yet made his initial appearance Thursday.

without a doubt ! Push for the Hour
Hey everyone
Huge Knicks fan for about 20 years. I currently host a NY Baseball Show on 1240 AM WGBB Long Island. My sponsor [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] has an archive of some of the baseball shows we have done this season.
I wanted some feedback as to whether you guys would be interested in me creating a half hour or hour show dedicated to the Knicks. You would be able to hear it on the internet live or download the replay at the site or on iTunes
Let me know your thoughts
MIke Silva
without a doubt ! Push for the Hour
If you allow streaming capabilities (listen on internet) I would love to listen to Knicks talk for an hour.
Great ideea! I'd support it 100%
if you have call-ins... that would be awesome...
The internet is a plus being that not all of us are still in the NY area. Sounds great!
Do it! I would listen to it everyday!
Definitely!! I would listen everyday also!! I would probably call in everyday too!! =)
Thanks for the feedback, yes you would be able to hear the show live at [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
I would love to partner with the forum as well. There would be live call in's and hopefully some guests (sports writers etc. basketball players are usually tougher to get then baseball players)
I am working out the details but if anyone would like to email me ideas on what you would like to see in detail you can get me at [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
I am leaning towards doing an hour and it be similar to my baseball show, take a listen if your a baseball fan at [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Heck if you guys want maybe we can name the show after the board!
AWESOME! can't wait for it
as for ideas.. calls from sports writers and fans would be a terrific start. then if you could get people that are close to the organization would be even better!
This will be cool! We can discuss all types of Knicks stuff all year. Good games, bad games, and more!
That would be great! I would listen everyday! I am really excited about it. Hopefully, it could be a more positive spin that all the beat writers besides Alan Hahn. It should also have the ability to be heard as a "podcast" like ESPN has it, so we could listen to the broadcasts at anytime.
I would hope to have it on iTunes just like my baseball show, but you could download it and listen from the web
This will take a few weeks to put together, so be patient. But I appreciate the support of the board.
Perhaps you guys can keep this thread up by giving me ideas for types of segments and things that you would be interested in hearing
I'm definitely down with this idea. Broadacasting your show for knick fans across the naiton is tremendous. I thank you for this opportunity!
Stay Tuned.....
Hey Everyone
Just wanted to update you on this thread (started back in June)
I am sorry it took so long for me to give you an update about the radio show, I was swamped with developing my site, doing the baseball show, and figuring out who would sponsor this project.
Right now [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] will be developing a gotham sports media website. They will be doing more then just baseball. I will be a sub-domain on this site.
I have already contacted a few journalist from the tri-state area to come on the show. I also would like to do fan segments with sites like this.
The show will be called Gotham Hoops Live. I will be doing Knicks/Nets/ and some around the league stuff. My guess is that the Knicks will just wind up being a more popular topic. However since its a NY baseketball show, I have to do the "other" team in town.
The show will be hosted by blogtalkradio, with dedicated call in number and everything. You will also be able to subscribe to the show via iTunes.
I do not want to be a self promoting so when the time comes I will only publish my website with permission. You are free to subscribe and never visit my site.
My site will be a combo of my baseball and baskeball show, there will be a blog, video, and some other cool stuff.
Thanks again for your support and interest in the show. Since I am not on the air yet I can still be bias
Go Knicks! and as a lifelong NY and former Brooklynite i will say it now and probably on the air I HATE THE NJ NETS.

Posting this for a friend - he can be reached at: email@example.com
I'm headed to NY next week to shoot my close friend
(and great artist) Lucinda Williams in concert. It's a no budget
shoot - a labor of love. But she's one of the best in the country at
what she does. And she rarely lets anyone videotape her, so this is
an extremely rare event.
I'm looking for camera operators willing to work for little to no pay
- basically for the love of the music. In return they get to witness
one of the best live acts in the country today. These shows also
promise a series of special guests. (I just finished shooting 5
nights in LA - guests included Emmy Lou Harris, Robbie Krieger ((the
Doors)), Mike Campbell ((Tom Petty's band)), Steve Earl and more.)
It's a perfect opportunity for an AC or operator who wants to add
some celebrity footage to their reel. And it's an even better opportunity for
anyone who loves shooting good music. She's playing 5 nights in NY. 2 at Irving
Plaza Sept 29 and 30. 3 @ Town Hall Oct 2-4.
One last thing - we're shooting mini DV. 24p. 16:9 aspect ration.

PocketVisions is calling for film submissions for the expanded London International Documentary Festival (LIDF) - A Conversation in Film, 2008. The festival is presented in association with the London Review of Books, and with the support of the British Museum. 2008 sees a continued association with The Margaret Mead Film and Video Festival (New York).
The LIDF will run for 6 days between Monday 31st March, and Saturday, April 5th, 2008. The opening and closing night gala screenings and reception will take place at the British Museum. Other venues include the Barbican Centre, the Curzon Soho, the Renoir Cinema and the Roxy Bar and Screen.
The call for submissions goes out to an international field of applicants. All successful applicants will be invited to be present at the LIDF. We are looking to support new and innovative filmmaking talent, and to ask filmmakers to participate in a series of intertwining 'conversations' to be run alongside the screenings. These 'conversations' will involve academics, journalists, policy-makers, NGOs, and other cultural commentators.
The LIDF is calling for documentary films produced between January 1st 2006 and December 6th 2007, and is particularly, although not exclusively, interested in films that fall within the following categories:
* Environment
* Human Rights
* Memory/history
* Ethnography/anthropology
* Politics/Philosophy/Economics
* Heritage and the Arts
* Other social and development issues
Submission Procedure: Film-makers can enter their films, pay entry fees and find out how to submit their DVD or VHS preview copy at http://www.lidf.co.uk
Once the on-line submission has been made entrants will receive a confirmation email and a unique Entry Reference Number.
Deadline for Submissions: 6th December 2007
Late entries accepted until 30th December with penalty (see regulations). Films can only be returned if the 'return fee' is included in the submission.
Selected films from the LIDF will be automatically submitted for selection to the Margaret Mead Film and Video Festival, November 2008.
For further information or questions see the official LIDF web-site: www.lidf.co.uk or email: firstname.lastname@example.com
We look forward to seeing your films.

Hi Soo Kim,
I don't have anyone to recommend, unfortunately, but I did work as an editor at an Architecture magazine here in Toronto that takes a huge interest in sustainable architecture. They run a Green issue every year and it's thoughtful. Really parses what we mean by green and doesn't seem to be after the ad dollard like a lot of publications. If you would like me to pass on the name of an editor there for a potential interview, I'd be happy to do so. Best of luck in your search!

Colin McIntosh, a church minister in Dunblane, Scotland, where a gunman shot dead 16 school children in 1996, offers Newtown's grieving families "our deepest sympathy and concern and support."
DUNBLANE, Scotland — Thousands of miles from Newtown, Conn., a lone gunman walked into the elementary school of this Scottish town and murdered 16 children aged 5 and 6 along with their teacher.
That was 17 years ago, but memories of the incident, which led to a total ban on the private ownership of handguns in the U.K., are still raw in Dunblane.
Follow Keir Simmons on Twitter
"I have a vivid memory as I arrived at the school of the desperation of parents trying to find out what happened," former police officer Louis Munn told NBC News. "But when I went inside the school it was absolute silence, there was the smell of school lunch in the air and children's coats still hanging on the wall."
Mick North, who lost his daughter Sophie, said: "Children become real people at around 5 years old. She was taken away so early."
Full coverage of the Connecticut school shooting
"Any shooting is tragic, but this one because of the age and because of the place is a painful reminder. I can picture myself waiting for the news and I can remember how I reacted."
When there are so many victims, so young, parents find comfort in each other, he said.
Keir Simmons / NBC News
A memorial to the children of Dunblane.
"I can also remember the strength that we gained by meeting with the families," North added. "We found that we could say things in front of the other families that we could not say even to our closest friends, even to our relatives."
For teachers, school security jumps to forefront after Newtown shootings
Steve Birnie's son was injured in the shooting. For him the challenge was to bring up his child amid such heartache.
"All we could do with our kids was be open and answer their questions as honestly as possible," Birnie said.
What happened was hard to comprehend, never mind explain: In March 1996, 43-year-old Thomas Hamilton entered Dunblane Primary School and shot more than a dozen children and a teacher. After the murders, Hamilton killed himself. Tennis star Andy Murray, who won two Olympic medals and the U.S. Open this year, was among the children at school that day.
The 1996 mass shooting that killed 16 children and their elementary school teacher shattered the security of a Scottish village led to new, stronger gun laws. NBC's Keir Simmons reports.
The country reacted with revulsion and in 1997 laws were passed that essentially made private handgun ownership illegal throughout the United Kingdom.
'The dreadful void'
Birnie now runs a young people's center, set up with money donated after the shooting. It was intended to provide some normality for children who had seen their community ripped apart.
This week, members of the community lit candles at the center for the Newtown victims. A condolence book is filling up with messages.
Colin McIntosh, minister of Dunblane Cathedral, said he would never forget the week of funerals. He found himself burying children he had baptized.
Fierce debate after Newtown school shootings: Where was God?
"The week of funerals comes to an end and then the dreadful void," he told NBC News. "What happens now? What are we supposed to do? No one has an answer to that question."
One thing the families did was campaign for more restrictions on guns.

"It wasn't difficult in the U.K. because there were so many people who felt similar," North said. "When families built up enough strength we organised the campaign."
"Had it not been for the parents, handguns would still be legal," ex-police officer Munn added. "It was the parents that changed it. It was people power."
But it's important not to lose focus on the families and the shock and pain they are feeling, McIntosh said.
"I hesitate at this very early stage for people who are going through traumatic experience to say, 'Yes, you will recover; yes, you will get over this.' But they will, there will be a future, there is hope."
Nervous parents send kids back to school in Newtown
In a message to Newtown, posted on the cathedral website, he said: "We do not understand a world in which such things can happen. All we can say from experience is that God is not absent in those moments when the worst happens.
"Words themselves seem so inadequate, but we in Dunblane will continue to remember you in our prayers. "
Even after all these years, talking about what happened is difficult for many in Dunblane. But they spoke this week in the hope that it might help those going through the same in Newtown.
There is no standard for school security in this country, but in the wake of the tragic Sandy Hook shooting, there is plenty of talk on what changes schools can make to ensure the safety of their students. NBC's Erica Hill reports.
"I want to send my sympathy and love," North said. "Our lives have changed forever, but I want to reassure you that there will be positive things that will come eventually. I can't and will never forget what happened, and it takes time, but strength can come from various places."
Every community is different and will find it's own ways of coping they say.
"We offer our support," Birnie added. "Dunblane has come through it and I hope Newtown will, too."

July 11, 2011—As the City of Naperville moves forward with implementing the Naperville Smart Grid Initiative (NSGI), the City recently recognized its partnership with North Central College and its students in conducting a survey to gauge utility customers' existing understanding and perceptions of the NSGI.
During spring term, four students from Associate Professor of Marketing Mary Galvan's Market Research class conducted a survey of 1,000 randomly selected Naperville utility customers to ask if they had heard about the smart grid, whether they understood the benefits, what their satisfaction was with the City-owned electric utility, and more.
The North Central students involved in the project were Frank Cataudella '12, management and marketing major; Joelle Lusson '12, marketing major; Andrew Mueller '12, management major; and Chris Rivard '12, marketing major.
The challenge of the course, said Galvan, is to teach students market research and have them apply what they've learned to actual business situations. Students write the actual survey, collect and analyze the data, draw conclusions and make recommendations based on the research results.
"The opportunity for our students to engage in service-learning projects such as the one for the City of Naperville is a win-win situation," Galvan said. "Students win because they work for an actual business client, and the City wins because it receives free research. The Smart Grid project was especially interesting and educational for our students."
Naperville Community Relations Manager Nadja Lalvani said, "The City is extremely impressed with the professionalism and dedication shown by the students. To partner with North Central College, a cherished and respected Naperville institution in its 150th year, and have such a tremendous response to the survey is outstanding. We look forward to future research opportunities as the NSGI moves into new phases."
The City reports that more than 200 people responded to the survey, with 81 percent indicating they were already aware of the smart grid project. Sixty-six percent of respondents knew Naperville's utility rates are much lower than surrounding communities, and more than half said they already monitor how much electricity they use in a given month. Of the 213 respondents, 180 agreed they would like to be able to monitor the cost of their household's electrical usage. Eighty-one percent said they are already taking steps to lower their monthly electric bill.
A summary of the survey results is available on the City's website.

text: My DD is 15 months old, and we're still breastfeeding! She shows no signs of letting loose, so we're going to keep on keepin' on! However, I have been faced with a little bit of negativity by one very close friend. She's like the sister I never had, actually. Though she is a woman who breastfed all three of her children, she has made it clear and blunt that she thinks I need to wean my daughter. She called it "tough love". Obviously, she loves her sons and breastfed them because she knew it was best for them, and had been raised within a huge breastfeeding family. However, I think she breastfed quite a bit more for the nutritional value, and less for the emotional bond that comes from it, and she doesn't share the attachment parenting philosophy. She believes that it does a child and a mother a disservice to allow the child to continue breastfeeding beyond one, or to wear the baby beyond the newborn and baby age. Basically, she loves breastfeeding and babywearing practices for younger babies, and doesn't see it as necessary or even enjoyable into the toddler phase. She thinks this way because, as my very close friend, she has heard and seen my frustration, from my complaining that my daughter was waking up more often to nurse through the night, or when I was confined to the bedroom during the vacation our families took together, so that I could get DD to sleep (which she has to be nursed for). Anyways, I feel like I can't "vent" about the occasional breastfeeding frustrations around her because she thinks I need to wean DD. And stop wearing her. Oh, and when I complained that DD wouldn't "allow" me to go anywhere without her, leaving her with a sitter occasionally, my friend said the answer was to wean. That I needed to break it off so that I could leave DD with a sitter and do things by myself. Truth is, DD is very attached to me, but not just because of the breastfeeding. And DD doesn't even like to be worn all the time! Just when she's tired or has had her feelings hurt and wants to cuddle. I'm a SAHM and she spends day-in-and-day-out with me and her much older brother, who is almost 12. My DH travels 100% for his job and is gone every single week from Sunday afternoons through Thursday evenings. Every other weekend, her best friend (my son) leaves and spends time with his bio father. So, really, I'm the only person in her life that is ALWAYS THERE. So, I decided that the answer was most definitely not in weaning, but in getting my daughter used to being cared for by others. For the past month or so, I have left her with my most trusted friends (the one I've been speaking of here and another who shares my attachment/natural parenting philosophies) and my mother, who DD has grown quite fond of! It was rough in the beginning. DD is a fighter, and really gave these people hell! But now, I am so excited to say that #1) we are still breastfeeding and #2) DD can be left with another caregiver so that I can do things with my son (took him to a couple of field trips!), get my hair done, things like that!

Rain's Potential Arrival Puts NASCAR In Difficult Position
If you've been checking out the weather forecasts from the unofficial NASCAR weathermanyou've seen that the outlook for Sunday night's Sprint Cup Series race at Atlanta Motor Speedway is not good.
Meteorologist Brian Neudorff posted two different forecast models on his blog Saturdayand both have big time rain over Atlanta around the start time of the race.
And apparentlythat's just the beginning of it. The system contains moisture associated with Tropical Storm Leewhich is currently affecting New Orleans.
If part of the slow-moving Lee reaches Atlanta by Sunday nightthe forecast for Monday is also a washout. Could NASCAR see a Tuesday race on the week before the Chase cutoff in Richmond?
That's a worst-case scenario no one wants to think about. But NASCAR must be already considering its optionssince the forecast looks so grim.
One option NASCAR says it will not consider is moving up the start time of the race by several hours.
The primary reasonin NASCAR's viewis fans who are attending the race might not hear about the time change and therefore miss part of it – or all of it. That's a huge problem for fans traveling from long distances or who have planned their weekend around a 7:30 p.m. Start time.
Another reason is the TV contract. NASCAR and ESPN agreed on a 7:30 start timeand that broadcast window is already set.
Obviouslythose are valid reasons. But here's the thing: While starting the race early and perhaps racing to halfway would hurt some fansso would running a Tuesday race that even fewer could attend in person or even watch on TV.
If we all wake up on Sunday and the forecast says Lee is all but certain to arrive later in the eveningit's going to be painful to wait around all day while cars could have raced in dry conditions and then endure a rainout.
Of coursethere's also a chance forecasters could be wrong. And in that caseNASCAR would look bad by moving up the start time for no reason.
So it's not an enviable position in which officials find themselves. But there will be plenty of second-guessing if the rain comes Sunday night after a mostly dry day.

Do you want to control your own health care? If so, you're not alone. A societal shift to a more patient-centered, empowered care is taking place.
Influential game changers in this adjustment, allowing people to play a more active role in their health care, are computer tablets and smart phones, as health apps are being downloaded daily.
Health apps can count your steps, carbohydrates, and calories. They can track your diet and heart rate, as well as log your nutrition. One app even attempts to shame you with a snarky voice when you gain weight instead of lose it.
However, if you really desire added control over your health, you might consider a few Bible apps.
Yes, Bible apps. Studies show prayer and spirituality benefit both mind and body.
Whether you utilize spirituality when medical treatment cannot reach you quickly or as a first choice for health care, Bible apps are invaluable.
I've found 5 Bible apps helpful:
The experiences of many show these apps to be beneficial as Bible verses can be pain-busters and healers.
For example: One evening, a woman called me. Earlier that day, she'd swept up pieces of glass from a broken window. Without knowing, tiny glass fragments had blown into her eyes. Hours later, she was in extreme pain.
She wanted my help. I opened the Bible and read the Beatitudes to her. Jesus opened the Sermon on the Mount with these guiding principles.
As I read, I could hear moaning. However, when I reached the end of the verses, the woman's pain had lessened.
Then I started over. Reading through them a second time, I felt a sense of peace and a deep certainty that health was present. Through experience, I've learned that these are mental signs of healing taking place.
When I finished the second reading, her pain was completely gone. The woman was free.
Scriptural verses quiet thought and reduce stress. They empower the reader to let go of fear and pain. Perhaps, this is the ultimate of patient-centered care, patients in control of their health.
Yes, there are apps that enable you to take a more active role in your health care. Give them a try. You might be pleasantly surprised.

It'd be spiffy if I could get Griffey
8 Comments
Yeah, that is so not Security Service Field. 😀
Have an awesome time, my friend!
Hope you have a great time in Albuquerque…. watch out for those in 'plain sight'
Phillies Outside
I'd get him to sign my 1990 Upper Deck rookie card. The card that pretty much put Upper Deck on the map. I hope you get him, although from what I've heard, he won't be spending too much out on the field this season.
This looks like a great Minor League park. I'd love to see the Springfield, er, I mean the Albquerque Isotopes play during one of my baseball trips.
'Minoring In Baseball'
When I watched that game, I thought Isotopes Park looked great. I hope you had a great time D!!!! Can't wait to catch a game this season!
LUVMYROX, PETER, HOMIE, MIKE, AND EMILY. Thanks for the comment luv. We had a great time in Albuquerque. You wont belive the story I have to tell about this trip. I'm working on the entry and should have it up Monday night.
Let me throw two names at you..Jason Giambi and Ken Griffey Jr, and no I didn't get their autograph..Check back to see what I did get…D
Rockpile, I know the sting your talking about very well. We have a Double-A team in our city, the Corpus Christi Hooks. I caught a home run ball from Arkansas Traveler, Jay Caligiuri. I was on the left field berm and the home run came in from my left side. Unfortunately for me I was still in the process of getting my glove up when it hit off my forearm. Never knew that a baseball could hurt so good. If you check my blog, I have a picture of my forearm. You can even see the imprint the stitching left.
HOOKSFAN-Welcome to the Rant…Ouch, last year I took a Batting Practice homer right to the top of my foot. Hurts so good, I like that…D

My One Offseason Wish Came True!!!
Ever since Game 7 of the 2008 ALCS was over, I was thinking about it. I knew that Jason Varitek would be a free agent since the second the 2008 season began, and watching him behind the plate I knew that no other person could fill that void. Sure I was sad that the season had ended, but I was so proud of everyone on that team, I wrote an entry thanking them which you can read here. After that loss we had a day off from school, which was a relief so I could recuperate and figure out how to face all of the comments I was going to get the next day. I was watching interviews of some of the players when I came across one of Jason Varitek. A reporter asked whether or not he would be returning to the Red Sox next year and Varitek's eyes welled up a bit, and as he choked back the tears he said, "I don't know,". That's when my tears started coming: he did not know.
27 Comments
LOL that you got a "C" on your chemistry test and could only think of Varitek. Love your one-track mind and I relate!
I'm glad your catcher came home. His value behind the plate cannot be overestimated. I will be devastated should Yadier Molina ever leave St. Louis. Enjoy the Superbowl party…I hear some Cardinals are playing!
Jane: LOL sometimes the one track mind isn't all that good for other people, but I don't mind it🙂
Kathy: Haha, I'll be thinking of you Kathy! I know you're rooting for them. I have no basis to root for either team, but since I read your entry first, I'll root for the Cards.
Sorry about the C. I was so happy Varitex signed with Boston the heart of Red Sox Nation is back! Could I have a brownie🙂.
Yeah Elizabeth! I knew your brownies and my fruit baskets would help! And congrats on the Chemistry grade. I know the test was hard – but it's poetic that you got it the same day as Tek resigned. There's a sign in there somewhere! Have fun at the Super Bowl party! I'll be watching, but then again, I like football also!
Bob: Yes, you may have a brownie!!
Julia: LOL we are the official cooks of RSN. It is poetic that I got it the same day that he signed. I find signs in everything
Congratulations Elizabeth! You got your captain back!
Thanks for the virtual brownies!
Lissi: Thanks! Hope you enjoy 'em!
CONGRATS.. I stand by my statement that the rivalry wouldn't be the same without him… unless he hits some crucial home run against the Yanks sometime this year, then my revised statement would be: 'the rivalry is better off without him' lolz.
In all seriousness though, V-Tek has to get in a fight again w/ A-Rod.. I've been looking for a rematch.. this time w/o his mask.
p.s. sesame street letter is koolerz.🙂
– V [ http://flairforthedramatic.mlblogs.com ]
Haha, we have to live for those crucial moments against each other, it makes the rivalry even better! '03 ALCS and '04! Hope to see that rematch soon, Red Sox vs Yankees fights are always the best.
Sesame Street is the greatest lol🙂
Good post Elizabeth, I was happy to see him come home too, just keep the word going that this won't last forever. The Sox need to be grooming someone real quick for his replacement. All the same enjoy 2009 with a real captain behind the plate.
Cob: I agree, the Sox need to find a suitor for two years. If Varitek picks up his contract for the second year than he will hve even more time to prepare his suitor. I sure hope he retires with the Red Sox. Can't wait to start the fantasy baseball league.
Oh my goodness that is sooooo exciting!!! Great entry!! Jason is a great great guy and a wonderful player, he will be so good for you guys this year. I'm so glad you got your offseason wish! Oh, and have fun at that Superbowl party. Maybe you'll be able to learn a little more about football! Yummy brownies!!
Kaybee: thanks!!! I'm so happy that he's back. It's such a relief!!! I hope I learn a little about football. Then again after tomorrow night it will be over. There's always next year!
I'm not really surprised that Varitek ended up re-signing with the Sox. Most other teams that had a need for a catcher had already filled it, so it doesn't look like he had much of a choice. If the market were better, he probably would've gotten a more money elsewhere. Hopefully he'll put up better numbers this year and really make the Sox glad they kept him:)
Erin: this market is absolutely terrible. There are still so many good free agents still out there, with only two weeks left!!! I'm so glad that he is back.
Hey, Eizabeth …
"Congratulations", again, on the Red Sox re-signing your "Captain", Jason Varitek !!! Wishes do come through; but, sometimes we just have to wait a little longer to receive them !!! … Nice post in Varitek's honor !!! … Enjoy your "Super Bowl Party"; and, after the "big game" is over tonight, "Baseball" takes center stage for the rest of the year !!! But, then again, "Baseball" is always the main attraction and takes "center stage" all year long, 365/24/7 !!! … Elizabeth, "Have A Great Day" !!! … Jimmy [27NYY], "BY&L" http://baseballtheyankeesandlife.mlblogs.com/
Congrats on getting Varitek back. I'm just now picking up on how uncertain the entire situation was, I thought he would definitely be back. I still remember booing him at Safeco Field a couple of weeks after the A-Rod brawl…. By the way, that time up he struck out and the Red Sox got shut out by Gil Meche.
Jimmy: it was well worth the wait!! I'm glad that he will be back the rivalry will indeed be the same. After today baseball willbe the focus of everyone's life!! I'm so excited!!
Neal: even though it was uncertain I think we all knew deep down that he would be back. And don't worry I boo A-Rod everytime that he comes to bat. At least the rivalry will be just the same!!
You want to know something, if he would of had a different agent he would have made more money off arbitration. It is a shame that his current agent held Boston's breath for so long by advising his client to not take arbitration, or even listen to offers before now.
Guess Boras had bigger fish to fry before taking on the Red Sox for Varitek. It might have cost him a few million dollars at least, but it also cost him some good faith with the Red Sox faithful. But if he gets off to a quick start with his bat.all will be forgotten.
I do like seeing him behind the plate for you guys. I would rather face a great catcher like him than have to rely on a young guns so early in the season. This is his year to shine, or that option year will not matter……….I think he has it in him to pull out a few more gutsy seasons before heading to the coaching ranks as a good one.
Rays Renegade
I'm happy for you guys, being a yankee fan (sorry) it wouldn't be the same playing the Redsox with out jason.
Rays Renegade: Don't even get me started on Scott Boras lol. I think a lot of RSN wanted him back, those who didn't are probably either bandwagon fans (those lowly ones, yes) or they just can't seem to recognize Varitek's intangible impact. The great part of having him is that he can still have his impact AND train his successor. I hope he'll retire with the Red Sox.
Angelsboy: The rivalry would be completely different without Tek. Still there obviously, but not the same. Tek did start that fight with A-Rod after all.
Tek without the Red Sox is like Boston without the 'Clam Chowder,' or Florida without the 'Oranges.'
That jersey without a 'C' is equally as troubling (he probably wouldn't have a 'C' if he signed somewhere else).
Homer: Exactly, it would change the entire atmosphere so much!
Happy: You were right!! LOL
But don't you think George Kottaras could have brought the same heroic presence?😉
But seriously, I'm happy for you and the other hundreds of thousands of fans who wanted Tex back so badly.
Now I am not a Red Sox fan, and I may be one of those "stat geeks" who believes Dusty Brown will have the same VORP as Varitek next season, but I still understand the meaning it has to the fans. Of course, Fenway still would have filled up every game with or without Varitek. On the other end of the spectrum, the Nationals would have had a tough time averaging 30,000 a night if they signed Adam Dunn, Mark Teixeira, AND Orlando Hudson. Eh, shorter concession lines.
LOL and shorter bathroom lines. It's so distressing trying to find a "good" moment to go to the bathroom during a baseball game. And with the lack of women's bathrooms? Tek is a true leader of the team.
Tell me more abut the Nats' stadium!!

For the past two months, my 9 month old has been nursing less and less. At 7 months he decided he didn't want to nurse at all during the day with an occasional nurse before a nap. He would arch his back and push away and start screaming if I tried to nurse him. I know his teeth have been bothering him since about 7 months. At 8 months he went on a nursing strike for about a week. I had to pump but I could sneak 2-3 feedings in during the night. If he'd wake up then it was back to pushing me away. At 9 months, he came down with a fever and started to nurse again and then he got an ear infection and congestion and stopped nursing again. At night I can get him to nurse, although poorly. His latch isn't too good at night because his teeth are really making me quite sore! The only times I can pump are when he naps (9AM & 1PM) or is sleeping at night because he'd tear my pump apart if he saw me with it plus he wants 100% of my attention! He doesn't eat much solids--much less than his friends the same age. When I pump, I used to be able to get about 4 oz, now I'm lucky if I get 1oz. He won't take formula. He will drink EM, water and juice from a sippy cup but he doesn't drink much--like 1 oz at a time. He will nurse now before his naps (although poorly) and throughout the night so things are improving in that regard but he is very upset because he is not getting much. He never nurses for more than 5 minutes a side. He is only actually getting milk (swallowing) for about 30 seconds.
I introduced baby cereal at 4 months because he was nursing all the time since birth--every hour. By the time he was 6 months it was great because he would nurse every 3-4 hours around the clock. Since then he has dramatically decreased his nursing frequency from 0-3 times during the day and 3 times during the night. I just starting taking Fenugreek yesterday so we shall see if it helps. When I pump for 20 minutes after Glenn nurses, I only get a few drops so he must be getting all that is there. I worry about dehydration. A few times his diaper was dry in the morning which alarmed me but he hasn't shown any signs of dehydration and he is wetting enough diapers now (5 day, although not as wet as they used to be). I am just so frustrated! He will be starting day care mid April and I'm concerned about how I am going to keep up my supply and he won't take formula. I'm hoping I will have enough to nourish him until he is at least 12 months.
I've tried everything to try to get him to nurse more since I know that is the best way to keep up my supply. My best luck has been to get up every 2 hours in the night because he outright refuses in the day. He is not a cuddler. Any advice? Since I'm going back to work I really don't want to be up all night but I may have to be. Please tell me this is all worth it!

PITTSBURGH, PA (August 31, 2011) – From Saturday to Sunday, August 27-28, Pittsburgh International Airport hosted more than 70 aircraft (commercial airlines, military and general aviation) from the east coast, providing a safe haven from Hurricane Irene. The Airport Authority worked with airlines to coordinate an aircraft parking and fueling plan. PIT also accepted a number of diversion flights with passengers due to inclement east coast weather. "Our region was spared from the storm's impact this weekend. Serving as a site for airline diversions is a frequent occurrence at Pittsburgh International Airport. It gives us an opportunity to offer a solution to the issue of east coast traffic congestion and showcase our capacity," said Bradley D. Penrod, Executive Director and CEO of the Allegheny County Airport Authority. The Allegheny County Airport Authority has released its Pittsburgh CASE (Capacity and Service Enhancement) Program, a white paper examining methods of decreasing air traffic congestion in the Northeast Corridor to benefit the air traveler with realistic, reliable flight schedules. "Aviation system delays are at the crisis stage. Something must be done and using existing facilities such as Pittsburgh International Airport presents a viable solution to the problem. The Pittsburgh CASE proposes a plan to take advantage of the money the Federal Aviation Administration has already invested here to alleviate the daily congestion at airports on the East Coast corridor," stated Penrod. "No other minimal investment holds the promise of relieving airline delays to the extent of this proposal." The Pittsburgh CASE Program incorporates many of the concepts of wayports – a high-capacity system providing opportunities to relieve delays at congested urban airports and lower the cost and environmental impact of the aviation system by utilizing existing infrastructure at other airports. Additionally, the Program would address the issue of large delays during East Coast weather situations with its geographic location, allowing for the aviation system to continue operating for passengers. The Wayports concept has been recognized by many as the way to improve America's air travel system by reducing gridlock at key airports. The concept challenges the status quo in which airlines and airports are invested. Wayports would route connecting traffic through less congested airports and set traffic to origination and destination (O&D) in airports more prone to delays to airport capacity limits. Delays pose an increased cost of equipment and personnel, expensive fuel burn and increase passenger frustration. These increased costs result in higher airfares for passengers and reduced profitability and productivity for airlines. The DOT Tarmac Delay Rule, which fines airlines for delays to passengers, presents airlines with operational challenges resulting in increased flight cancellations. Unless the chronic delay issue is addressed, the capacity of the U.S. aviation system is at risk to remain competitive globally. Executive Summary Excerpt: Congestion at the Philadelphia (PHL), Kennedy (JFK), Newark (EWR), LaGuardia (LGA) and Northeast Corridor airports has gone from inconvenience to crisis. The airports and airlines are not motivated to take action that might threaten their competitive position. The FAA response to congestion has been restriction of growth, increased regulation and rationing of airport capacity since its reinstitution of the slots program in 2008. If these airports (PHL, JFK, EWR, LGA) were not handling connecting passengers, the existing airport capacity is sufficient to handle the O&D traffic. If connecting passengers were removed, and scheduled flights adjusted to meet only the O&D demand, existing capacity is sufficient. These airports need to outsource their connections to match local traffic within airport capacity. Three steps are required to establish the Pittsburgh CASE Program:
Currently, Philadelphia International Airport is proposing to begin a $5.3 billion expansion project to extend and construct new runways in an effort to alleviate congestion. Additionally, the Manhattan-based Regional Plan Association is recommending $15 billion in overhauls to reduce delays and allow for more takeoffs at the three New York Airports. Pittsburgh International Airport meanwhile has the capability to reduce that congestion with a much smaller investment of federal funds, giving Federal, State and local government alternatives to reducing delays when funding is not widely available. Under the PIT CASE, capital investment savings would equal nearly $20 billion at the four East Coast Airports without considering the savings related to reduced fuel costs and passenger delays. For more information, the Pittsburgh CASE white paper is on the airport's website: PDF

Men's Made In America Hats & Caps
It's an unfortunate reality that we've all seen and felt the effects of our struggling economy. Whether in cutbacks, layoffs, loss of wages or simple penny pinching. We search for the lowest priced products more now than ever. Is that really the best answer, though? Let's take a look at this in relation to men's hats. If I am only worried about the lowest priced item, I may select a hat that is made in China, but what does this do for American manufacturing?
By seeking the lowest priced goods, which in many cases are foreign made, we've contributed to the loss of 5,500,000 jobs since the beginning of 2001. Though lack of manufacturing plants, materials, and cost of labor dictates that much of our market goes overseas, at a time where we look to turn our economy around, we need to buy American when we can in order to Save American Jobs! This collection of men's and women's American made hats are a start if you're determined to help do your part!

West Virginia quilters can enter exhibition
The West Virginia Division of Culture and History invites West Virginia quilters to enter the annual Quilts and Wall Hangings Juried Exhibition.
This year's exhibition will open May 24 with an awards ceremony at the annual Vandalia Gathering at the Culture Center on the State Capitol Complex. The free summer-long exhibition will be displayed through Sept. 2.
"The quilt exhibition in the Great Hall is one of our most popular and colorful exhibitions," said Commissioner Randall Reid-Smith of the Division of Culture and History. "Visitors from around the country enjoy the fine handiwork of West Virginians whose creativity and appreciation of tradition are showcased in the quilts and wall hangings we feature."
Beverly Fine, a National Quilting Association certified judge from Haymarket, Va., will be the juror for this year's exhibition. She made her first quilt for a friend when she was in high school, and became a dedicated quilter in 1996. Fine focuses her work on monoprinting, or using an etching press and/or fabric marbling, as well as dye-painting and shibori techniques. Her work has been exhibited in juried shows, including the Fitchburg Art Museum and the Johsonia Gallery in Fitchburg, Mass.; the Whistler House Museum of Art, the Brush Art Gallery and Studios and the New England Quilt Museum, all in Lowell, Mass. She recently co-authored the book "Guide to Judged Quilt Shows," available through www.nqa.org or Amazon.
Fine will lead a workshop titled "A Judge's Guide to a Professional Finish" at the Culture Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 10. Students will learn a step-by-step process for making bindings and facings that will win praise from a quilt judge. The resulting pieces will be flat, smooth and square.
Quilts, handmade or machine made, by West Virginia residents are eligible for the exhibition. Quilts and wall hangings shown previously in a Division of Culture and History Quilts and Wall Hangings juried exhibition are not eligible.
Awards are presented for first ($750), second ($400) and third place ($300) in the following categories: pieced quilts, appliqued quilts and quilts made with mixed/other techniques. Wall hangings will receive $400 for first-place, $300 for second-place and $200 for third-place.
In addition, a Best of Show prize of $100 may be awarded by the juror. Honorable mention or other non-monetary awards are given at the discretion of the judge. The Division of Culture and History will provide two Purchase Awards and add the purchased quilt and wall hanging to the collection of the West Virginia State Museum.
Quilters may sell their quilts during the exhibition, however quilts may not be removed until the close of the show.
This year, entries must be shipped or mailed no earlier than April 8 and must arrive at the Culture Center no later than May 3. Hand-delivered entries will be accepted between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., on April 25-26. Each entrant may submit one quilt and one wall hanging, which must be accompanied by a non-refundable fee of $20 for each entry.
The workshop is limited to 25 participants. There is a $20 fee per person and registration is required. Anyone interested can contact Betty Gay, exhibits coordinator for the Division, at 304-558-0220, ext. 128, to register for the workshop and to receive a supply list.
Guidelines, applications and more information about eligibility, jurying and shipping are available on the Division's website at www.wvculture.org/museum or by calling Gay to have an application mailed.

Product Description
This small ceramic luminary was made by Lynn Jenkins of Valle Crucis, NC.
Lynn started potting as a teenager in 1976, and clay has been a part of her life ever since. She works primarily with raku-fired pots. The word Raku means "enjoyment of freedom" and/or "peace." In pottery terms it refers to a firing process which dates back to the sixteenth century in Japan.
Raku is a fast firing process which takes approximately 1 hour. The pottery is glazed and then placed into a gas kiln where the temperature goes from 1500 to 1900 degrees F. The pot is then removed with tongs and placed in a drum of burning newspapers for about 30 minutes. During this process the pottery goes through a reduction and the unglazed clay turns black. The cracks form in the glaze because of the rapid cooling, and appear because the clay has turned black while the glaze was cracked open. The pots are removed from the newspaper and quenched in water, and then rubbed clean.
This candle holder (use a tea-light or votive) is approximately 4" high by 3: in diameter.
Lynn hopes you enjoy the energy she passes to you with her pottery!
