What's the deal?
The Triumph 9 is now lighter and lower to the ground than ever before. Runners praise the 8mm stack height that promotes a more forward footstrike and smooth heel-to-toe ride. Found to be plush and well-padded, the new Powergrid midsole also provides good energy return and spring on the road, though some are left wanting by its less flexible platform. Wider in the forefoot, and longer overall, this shoe offers ample room for toe splay, though it may be too much room for some runners. Luxuriously padded and loaded with features, the Triumph 9 is a shoe that will take you the extra mile in extra comfort.
New to this model:
• 1oz lighter in weight from previous model
• 8mm heel-to-toe drop compared to last model's 12mm heel-to-toe drop
• wider midsole/outsole platform in the forefoot and heel
• new Powergrid cushioning technology reduces weight and offers a softer smoother ride
• Sauc-Fit lacing system secures the heel and collar independently for improved fit
• IBR+ rubber in the outsole is lighter and softer than previous blown rubber compound
Out on the road
The Triumph 9 is a maximum cushioned shoe built to take you those extra miles in extra comfort, and most agree the shoe does just that. Runners find it to be well-cushioned throughout, offering great protection from hard road surfaces, making it an excellent choice for longer distances. Lindsay notes "while running you feel very protected from the harsh ground" and Mary talks about the cushioned forefoot's "nice, luxurious feel" on the road.
How is the ride?
With its padded midsole and soft luxurious feel, the Triumph 9 also has surprisingly good energy return. Runners note its "plush yet springy ride" and several mention their surprise at how much bounce the shoe provides, even as a maximum cushioned shoe. In terms of weight, most runners find the shoe to be fairly light for its category. Lauren notes twice that "it feels surprisingly light for a maximum featured shoe."
While the shoe provides a springy ride, it does not have a particularly close feel for the ground. Several note feeling "distinctly separated from the road" while running. Another point of concern with the Triumph 9 is its relatively inflexible platform. The new Powergrid technology, while lighter and more cushioned, makes the shoe less flexible, particularly in the forefoot. Mary mentions that she has difficulty transitioning to faster speeds with the shoe's lack of flexibility.
New stack height offers a whole new world
All testers agree, the most noticeable difference between the Triumph 9 and older models proves to be the new 8mm stack height differential. Dropped by 4mm from the old model, the new stack height helps greatly in promoting a more forward footstrike. Runners praise the lower heel that brings them closer to the ground, noting that the Triumph's heel feels lighter and far less obtrusive than those of their traditional trainers, resulting in a smoother heel-to-toe transition. As Brent puts it, "this may become my daily trainer; its all in the new heel-to-toe drop."
A finicky fit
In fit, the Triumph 9 has mixed reviews. Found to be a bit longer overall and wider in the forefoot than the last model, some runners see these features as perks, while others do not. Larry notes "during a 13 mile run, plenty of room in the forefoot kept all my toes and toenails pain-free and happy." However, Lauren finds the shoe to be loose in the heel, and too wide in the forefoot for her comfort. Brent finds pros and cons, noting "Great heel design! It contours and grips my heel without being too tight. But the fit is long, nearly 1/2 size too long." In fact, multiple runners mention the toe box being a bit long, though the majority of testers find the fit to be standard. While the fit works well for some, those that fall on the lower cusp of a their shoe size might consider going down a 1/2 size in this shoe.
Love all the extras
Many enjoy the extra perks on this maximum featured shoe, including the stretchy no-slip shoe laces and super soft tongue and heel collar. Brent praises the comfort of the memory-foam heel, and Mary notes "the stretchy shoe laces don't come untied during runs." These extra luxuries give the entire shoe a more appealing feel and experience on the road, as there is no need to stop and re-tie laces, and no heel-slippage or hot spots to take away from the focus of the run.
Overall, runners find this shoe to be well-padded and comfortable in fit, although somewhat inflexible and separated from the ground. Its smooth ride and relatively good energy return keeps runners comfortable through long miles, making this shoe a great choice for daily training and high mileage.

Colorful Eye Makeup Tutorial: Asians Can Rock Multi-Color Eye Makeup Looks Too!
It's a good thing I always write down, somewhere, the products used for makeup looks. I knew I would be less shy to put up more makeup looks one day. Yup, I have trouble with putting pictures of myself up on my own blog. I'm shy.
It's just so weird seeing photos of myself on my blog, even though I have thousands of them on facebook. Maybe it's because in those photos, I'm not smiling by myself into the camera, or taking close-up shots of my eye/brow/cheek/lip.
Besides, it's so much harder to take photos of oneself! There's always something wrong – stray strands of hair falling over the eyebrow, some fleck of dust sitting on the cheek, a tiny crumble of biscuit on the lip. For every photo selected, I have just about 20 variations of that, maybe tilting one degree to the left, or twelve degrees to the right. Gah!
I think I just have to get used to it.
So let's start with a colorful look I did some time ago, when I still had my curly hair (gawd, looking at these photos make me miss them so much!).
You will need the following:
Face Primer – Monistat Chafing Relief Powder-Gel
Foundation – Stage Cosmetics Photo Pro Foundation (02 Take 1 and 03 Take 2)
Concealer – Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer (Light Golden)
Contouring Powder – MAC Gold-Go-Lightly Studio Careblend Pressed Powder
Highlighter – MAC Beauty Powder Too Chic

TIF board members voted to use money from their coffers to have the cross streets in downtown seal coated.
Bridge said half of those blocks were seal coated last year, but the city decided to delay the paving work for eight blocks until this year because work had been scheduled to redo sidewalks in downtown.
A contractor completed that project months ago.
Bridge said he expected to have all eight of those blocks finished by the end of the day Wednesday.
Then the seal coating crew would proceed to the northwest corner of the city to begin seal coating 76 and a half blocks of mostly residential streets.
Seal coating is a maintenance effort that state, county and city street maintenance departments attempt to provide throughout the country. The work extends the life of asphalt pavement by filling any cracks that would allow water to seep into the base of the roadbed.
The process involves spreading hot oil onto the existing asphalt pavement and then scattering a layer of rock on top of the oil.
Beeville had fallen behind on seal coating city streets for several years until the City Council called a special election six years ago to give voters the option of designating a portion of the half-cent, 4B sales tax money for a street maintenance fund.
Voters authorized the city to set aside one-eighth of the 1 percent 4B sales tax for the fund.
That comes out to a little more than $200,000 a year.
The 1 percent 4B sales tax was authorized by the Legislature in 1979 to give municipalities the ability to pool money for economic development purposes.
The law allows cities to designate a portion of that tax for infrastructure improvements if city voters approve it.
Voters must reapprove that every four years. City residents have re-approved the use of that money for the maintenance fund two years ago.
Money in the street maintenance fund can be used in several ways, including maintenance and repair of city streets and purchasing equipment for that purpose.
Bridge said he has someone from every city department which he oversees working on this year's seal coating effort.
The hot, summer months are the best time for seal coating, Bridge said. The hotter temperatures keep the hot oil spread on the streets from solidifying before the paving rock can be spread over it.
The oil emulsion seals cracks that form in the existing asphalt on streets and the new rock keeps the surface upon which vehicle tires drive from contacting the oil.
The city's annual list of streets to be seal coated is approved annually by the council.
Residents who live on blocks scheduled to be seal coated are contacted and asked to have any vehicles they park at the curb moved on the day the work is to be done.

Is this legit or trolling? Can you elaborate please!
While other team's players are paying him for lessons for a short period of time, the Knicks have him training them in-between seasons and the entire season. The man can teach ANYONE on our roster now for a lengthy period of time.
What's his contract with us?
Next we need Ewing, then we're set.

I can't wait until Amar'e does the Dream Shake in-game.
It's better then relying solely on Herb Williams.
Herb can teach a lot but not like dream.

Can someone please tell me what is going on here? Did we get him as an adviser or assistant coach?
This thread should be locked 100% false. Dream is not a member off the Knicks staff he is doing an old buddy a favor ( paid ) this offseason. It would be love to have him but let's wait until we get official reports.
Get off my Dick. Guess you can't see the other post.
Whoops, I thought it was more than a few days that they flew him.

Florida's official state chef is at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, cooking up Florida seafood for Team USA athletes and their families and friends.
First, let's clarify, in case you're among the uninitiated: Florida is the only state in the nation with a full-time `state chef' who's part culinary ambassador and part cheerleader for Florida-sourced food.
Justin Timineri—an outgoing chef who travels around the state cooking Florida seafood and other Sunshine State goodies at various events—is employed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (for more info, visit www.freshfromflorida.com).

My Uncle Ralph often talked about his Aunt Aggie; Here is an except from one of his letters in which he told his younger sister about their aunt:
My Aunt Olive, to whom the above letter was written, said that she only knew Aunt Aggie as an old woman --- 64 years old. So she was quite surprised when I showed her my favorite picture of Aunt Aggie. The year was 1918 and thirty-year old Aggie was playing barefoot in Crow Wing Lake. I dinna know her then, but I wished that I had.

At approximately 12:45 a.m., Deputy Paul Pearman and Cadet J. Catchings stopped the vehicle on a traffic violation. Two male passengers fled the vehicle across the highway. One of the men, Rigaberto Rodriguez-Martinez, 37, was captured by Pearman. Rodriguez-Martinez resisted arrest and attempted to take Pearman's Tazer gun, according to the GCSO report.
After the struggle, Rodriguez-Martinez was placed in handcuffs and transported to the GCSO jail. Found in a backpack belonging to Rodriguez-Martinez was 253 gram of cocaine with an estimated street value of $32,000.
A female driver of the vehicle and three other male passengers were detained. It was determined that the male passengers were undocumented immigrants in the country illegally.
Rodriguez-Martinez was charged with first-degree felony possession of a controlled substance, state jail felony attempting to take a weapon from a peace officer and third-degree felony assault on a public servant.
The female driver and remaining male passengers were transported to the GCSO jail and held for border patrol agents.
At approximately 8:30 a.m., deputies with the Victoria County Sheriff's Office located the last remaining passenger who had fled. The subject was turned over to the GCSO and later remanded to the custody of border patrol agents.

Product Description
The first new studio album from Hollywood legends L.A. Guns in 7 years finds the boys paying tribute to the city of their collective birth with a heavy slab of classic Guns-style metal!
Produced and engineered by the inimitable Andy Johns whose credits include The Rolling Stones' Exile On Main St., Led Zep's IV, and, more recently, the supergroup Chickenfoot!
Formed in 1986 at the height of the Sunset Strip metal explosion, L.A. Guns has become one of the Golden State's great musical dynasties, stretching into its 4th decade and showing no signs of fading. The band's first 3 albums are celebrated as definitive expressions of the no holds barred, melodic metal that consumed Hollywood and the nation in the late '80s and continues to find new audiences, generation after generation.
Through numerous line-up changes and a wildly shifting musical landscape, the group has survived and thrived by staying true to the ethos and sound that earned the group its legion of dedicated fans. It's been 7 whole years since the last L.A. Guns studio album – 2005's Tales From The Strip – but that long wait is about to end with the release of Hollywood Forever, the band's newest effort and perhaps their best yet! With vocalist Phil Lewis at the helm, this album draws on the group's greatest strengths including the propulsive drumming of longtime Gunner Steve Riley, the gigantic riffs of virtuoso guitarist Stacey Blades and the solid grooves of bassist Scotty Griffin.
Add into the mix one of rock music's most celebrated producers, Andy Johns, and this band is ready to once again conquer the Sunset Strip!

Mr. Morris joined the Army Air Corps the following day and thus began his journey of training and becoming a member of a B-24 bomber squadron as a waist gunner.
Mr. Morris gave accounts of his service experiences in England and Germany. He said he never received a Purple Heart, but came close when a piece of German artillery flak tore off his intercom throat microphone during one of his 35 bombing missions over Germany including Berlin and Brunswick.
Please go to this link on the internet to read his full story : http://mysoutex.com/pages/full story/push?article

Freedom New Mexico
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's threat to go to war with Colombia is almost certainly more bluster and opportunism than a real thirst for battle.
Machiavelli formulated long ago what rulers have known since the dawn of time: A leader facing problems and potential opposition at home can often prosper by turning peoples' attention to a foreign threat or outrage, distracting the peoples' attention from their own problems and ginning up some jingoism. The trouble is that sometimes threats and bluster escalate into real military confrontations.
The flap started after Colombia's armed forces attacked a jungle camp of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), an insurrectionary guerrilla group that has been carrying on an insurrection that has sometimes resembled a civil war for some 40 years. The trouble was that the camp was a mile or two inside neighboring Ecuador. When troops on the ground inspected the camp, they found a laptop purportedly belonging to Raul Reyes, a top FARC commander, who was killed.
Ecuador's initial response was relatively subdued, but

I breastfeed exclusively but I can tell that my supply is decreasing due to poor latch. I'm expecting a visit from a LC today to help me with the latch, but now my concern is that my milk supply is LOW! I can only pump 1 oz out of one breast and 2 oz out of the other (in the AM after a nursing -- my baby is almost 3 wks old). Another indication that my supply is low is that I only see her actively sucking for a VERY short time (like only a minute) after the first let-down and then sporadic little sucks or a couple of gulps after a subsequent let-downs.
I'm taking Mother's Milk fenugreek liquid drops to help increase my supply as well as trying to drink lots of water, but I want to add pumping to help increase as well. What I don't know is when I should pump (immediately following a feeding or an hour after the last feeding?), how many times a day, and how long should each pumping session last?

Writer asks: return to 'government by the people for the people'
The government shutdown upset me greatly. In fact, I started looking at Zombie Apocalypse websites (just kidding) and the media is disgraceful in hyping it all and bringing division amongst our citizens. However it all comes down to this: Do we really have a President who is bipartisan? The answer is obviously no. The Republicans are not liberal Democrats, therefore they do not see the world as the Democrats do. The job of the President is to work with all the Senators and House members to get things done. However what concerns me more is all the U.S. citizens who are so willing to vote in politicians who want bigger and more powerful government. Our U.S. government has run up trillions of debt, and it continues to throw money around the world supposedly helping everyone from Israel to Palestine with seemingly no plan, or rhyme or reason. I truly and respectfully ask: why would anyone want a bigger more powerful government? I tell you, it is time to take the USA back to a government by the people for the people, a patriotic government that is not Republican or Democrat but that represents a balance of all of its citizens. Amen.

April 25, 2011 —
In a discussion about the fine points of the Marcellus Shale in the Upper Delaware Valley, professor Terry Engelder said, "I wish it would make Narrowsburg rich, but it's not going to." In this region that assessment will be met with a mix of glee, disappointment and skepticism.
Engelder is a Professor of Geosciences at Pennsylvania State University and one of the foremost experts on the subject.
In a phone interview on April 22, he remarked specifically about the chances of successful drilling in Wayne and Pike counties in Pennsylvania and Sullivan in New York.
He said, "Maybe the northwestern corner of Wayne County will work, but certainly Pike County is off the table, and to the best of my knowledge, there's a huge probability that Sullivan County is off the table."
He added that drillers will likely never be interested in drilling in most of the watershed that drains into the New City reservoirs because there is no recoverable gas there. Also, most of the Delaware River Basin will not be affected by drilling.
However, the northwestern reaches of the basin, in Delaware and a bit in Broome Counties in New York, as well as some part of Wayne, may likely be impacted, if and when the Delaware River Basin Commission and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation each finish their task of formulating drilling rules.
Engelder's projections about the location of likely drilling in the future is not much different than the view put forward by the Northern Wayne Property Owners Alliance and various other landowner groups and organizations in a press release in early March.
The organizations published a map with a line that ran started near Waymart, ran just north of Bethany and continued to the Upper Delaware River near Milanville. In New York, the line continued through Cochecton, into Jeffersonville or perhaps just north of it, through Youngsville and south of Livingston Manor.
He agreed that his approximations were similar to those and said the people who created that boundary understand the geology of the shale, and that is not going to change. He said the exact boundary, however, of has not been firmly established and may shift a bit as the drilling companies continue to explore the issue.
He explained the geological forces that determine whether gas will occur in recoverable quantity in the shale or not. In order for sufficient gas to have been created, there needs to be a certain amount of organic matter in the rock. If the pressure and heat were too intense hundreds of millions of years ago, much of the gas could have been "cooked" away.
But he said, perhaps an even more important factor was that the rock that makes up the shale in the area around Narrowsburg likely was exposed to too much "clastic material," meaning essentially sandstone and clay, which washed out or diluted the organic material. So, Engelder said, "right from day one the rock was not rich enough to serve as a reservoir" for the gas.

Orthodontics in Children
Orthodontics/Braces for Children
What is orthodontics?
Orthodontics is the dental specialty that focuses on the development, prevention, and correction of irregularities of the teeth, bite, and jaws. Orthodontists also have specialized training in facial abnormalities and disorders of the jaw. Your dentist may refer your child to an orthodontist. The American Dental Association recommends that every child have an orthodontic evaluation by 7 years of age.
Why choose orthodontic treatment?
Any orthodontic problem may be classified as a malocclusion, or "bad bite." The following problems may be helped or minimized with proper orthodontic treatment:
Misaligned, crooked, or crowded teeth
Missing teeth
Extra teeth
An overbite
An underbite
An openbite
Misaligned or incorrect jaw position
A disorder of the jaw joint
What age should my child get braces?
In most cases, the ideal age for braces and other orthodontic treatments is between 10 and 14 years of age. Moving and correcting the alignment of the teeth follows the same process regardless of age. However, an adult mouth must overcome already-positioned facial bones and jaw structure. Thus, overcoming most types of malocclusions may require more than one type of orthodontic treatment for adults and can sometimes involve jaw surgery.
What are the different types of braces available?
Braces generally come in 3 varieties:
Brackets, metal or plastic, clear or tooth-colored, that are bonded to teeth
Lingual-type brackets that attach to the back of teeth, hidden from view
Bands that cover most of the teeth with metal bands that wrap around the teeth
All 3 types use wires to move the teeth to the desired position. Clear, removable teeth aligners may also be an option. Ask your orthodontist.
Oral health care and braces
The following recommendations will help to eliminate, or reduce, any oral health problems while your child's teeth are in braces:
Make certain that your child is brushing his/her teeth carefully after every meal with fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush, as food becomes easily lodged in the braces. A new toothbrush may be needed every 3 to 4 months, or sooner if bristles are broken or frayed. A worn toothbrush doesn't do a good job of cleaning the teeth.
Make certain that your child is flossing daily between the teeth and the braces. A floss threader may be useful to carry the floss under the arch wire.
Be sure your child has his or her teeth cleaned every 6 months, or as often as recommended by your dentist.
Limit your child's sugar and starch intake, as debris left behind from these types of foods may turn into damaging acids, which may be harmful to teeth and gums and promote plaque formation.
Avoid hard and/or sticky snacks that may be difficult to remove from the orthodontic equipment in your child's mouth. This includes hard foods such as popcorn, hard candy, nuts, and ice chips, and sticky foods like chewing gum, caramel, and other chewy candy.
Ask your dentist about prescription fluoride toothpaste or the application of a fluoride varnish around the braces to minimize white spots on the teeth after the braces come off.

It might not sit well with Wal-Mart, Costco and some Internet retailers. But the Supreme Court's decision last week to reverse a 1911 precedent and allow what is called minimum retail pricing or vertical pricing — or at least not to conclude automatically that such schemes violate antitrust laws — was a welcome sign of growing economic literacy.
Minimum retail pricing is when a manufacturer tells retailers they may not sell a product for any less than a specified price. It is mostly applied to high-end items, to products that might require special training or special service to sell properly, or to new products that require some introduction before consumers are persuaded to buy them.
In 1911 the Supreme Court, in the Dr. Miles case, declared such agreements an automatic or per se violation of antitrust laws. Some companies, however, have tried to keep such agreements in force informally, by refusing to sell again to stores that discount their products.
That's what happened in the case of Leegin Creative Leather Products v. PSKS Inc. Leegin made high-end leather products under the Brighton label and required retailers not to discount them because, it argued, selling took special services, and it wanted to be sure retailers had sufficient margin to keep stocking their products. A store in Texas decided to discount the merchandise and Leegin refused to sell again to the discounter. The discounter sued and won. The Supreme Court reversed the decision.
Recent economic research has suggested strongly that minimum pricing does not always work to hurt consumers and that forbidding it may actually reduce competition.
The classic example is the customer who goes into a high-end specialty store to test out, for example, a new golf club, gets the full story including instruction from a specialized sales person or golf pro, then goes to the Internet to buy it at a discount. When that happens the incentive to produce such items is reduced substantially, and the incentive to maintain such high levels of customer service can disappear. Innovation can suffer.
The high court didn't say that all minimum-pricing schemes will automatically be permitted from now on, but specified that future cases should be decided on the merits, on a case-by-case basis. That could create some confusion — courts are not always the best places to do sophisticated economic analysis — but this ruling will permit more flexibility in the marketplace than had been the case before. The
court was wise to reconsider even such a longstanding precedent.

Girl suffers from 'Sleeping Beauty Syndrome'
Nicole Delien, 17, has slept up to 64 days in a row
A 17-year-old girl in Pennsylvania is a real-life "Sleeping Beauty."
Nicole Delien suffers from what's known as "Sleeping Beauty Syndrome," or Kleine-Levin Syndrome, a rare condition that causes her to sleep 18 to 19 hours a day and leaves her in a sleepwalking state when she's awake, The Daily Mail reported.
Her mother, Vicki Delien, told talk show host Jeff Probst that her daughter has slept anywhere from 32 to 64 days in a row.
Medications help spread her episodes apart. But one year, Delien fell into a somnambulant state just before Thanksgiving and didn't wake up until after Christmas, according to the New York Daily News.
"She's never really adjusted to it," Vicki Delien told the Chartiers Valley Patch. "She's 17 now and it really upsets her. She's missed out on a lot."
It took 25 months for doctors to diagnose Delien with the disorder, which affects just 1,000 people worldwide, according to the Kleine-Levin Syndrome Foundation website.
Affected people may go weeks, months or even years without any symptoms, and they then reappear without warning.
The condition normally affects males and its cause is unknown.

Matthews Sets DU Scoring Mark in Fairfield Win
from press release
DENVER – No. 5/6 University of Denver
men's lacrosse junior Mark Matthews (Oshawa, Ontario) scored
four goals and had an assist, to become DU's all-time
Division I point-getter and help guide the Pioneers to an 11-5 win
over Fairfield to close out regular season ECAC play Saturday
afternoon at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium.
"Fairfield gave us a scare, but we were able to rally and finish strong," head coach Bill Tierney said. "I'm really proud of what our guys have done this season. The new season starts next week, but I want this team to have some time to think about how rare this is."
Denver (11-2, 6-0) faces Ohio State Thursday night at 7 p.m. MT in the first round of the first-ever ECAC Tournament at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium. Fairfield (7-7, 3-3) plays Loyola on Thursday in Game one of the tournament at 4 p.m.
The Pioneers are now 13-0 in the ECAC regular season during the last two seasons under coach Tierney.
Senior Todd Baxter (Eden Prairie, Minn.) had three goals and an assist and sophomore Cameron Flint (Georgetown, Ontario) added two goals and two assists for Denver. Sophomore Chase Carraro (Louisville, Kent.) won 16-of-19 face-offs for Denver while adding a goal and an assist.
Matthews caused two turnovers for Denver and freshman Jamie Faus (Lakeville, Conn.) made 10 saves. The Pioneers held Fairfield to 12 second-half shots on goal and outshot the Stags 49-33 in the win.
Denver took a 2-0 lead to begin the game with early goals coming from Cararro and Matthews. After a Fairfield goal, the Pioneers tallied scores from senior Andrew Lay (Denver, Colo.) and Matthews and led 4-1 after one quarter. Lay joined for his first game back since April 26 against Air Force after suffering a broken jaw.
The Pioneers were unable to score in the second quarter as Fairfield held DU to two shots on goal while scoring twice. Denver was outshot 21-13 in the half, but led 4-3 at intermission.
Denver continued to struggle in the third quarter, giving up two Fairfield goals and trailing 5-4 before Baxter sparked a Pioneer rally with back-to-back goals. Denver scored again moments later when Matthews netted a goal, taking a 7-5 lead going into the final period.
Flint scored twice, Baxter added another goal and Matthews buried his fourth goal of the game as Denver dominated the fourth quarter. The Pioneers scored seven unanswered goals between the last two periods and held Fairfield scoreless in the last 15 minutes.
Matthews now owns DU's all-time Division I points record with 139 points. The junior surpassed Pioneer assistant coach Matt Brown with his second goal of the first quarter.
Jordan Greenfield scored twice for Fairfield. Brendan McTague caused two turnovers and Charlie Cipriano made nine saves in the loss.
Denver won the groundball battle 33-15 and was a perfect 9-of-9 on clears. Fairfield was 14-of-17 in clearing chances. The Pioneers were 2-of-5 with a man-advantage compared to Fairfield who was 0-of-2.

Spicy shrimp and scallop pasta salad
Thai Dressing:
• 1 1/4 cup minced shallots
• 1 Tablespoon minced fresh ginger
• 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh basil
• 1 Tablespoon chopped cilantro
• 6 Tablespoon lime juice
• 1/4 cup Thai fish sauce
• 1 Tablespoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

One man's trash becomes a group of students' art.
Students at La Crescent Montessori worked with a local artist Monday to paint on cardboard boxes. But instead of the traditional paint, they used reclaimed latex house paint.
The artist teaching said it's a sloppy technique, but it gets the students thinking outside of the box.
"Things that could be considered waste could be used for useful, functional, in this case, artisitic things," said local artist and educator Jamie Harper.
The students' projects will be combined into a single piece that will be hung up in the school.

As unrest in the Underworld threatens, seven warriors descended from the greatest heroes in all of Ancient Greece may just be mankind's last hope.
From the moment he walked into the club, Casey knew this guy was different. Men like that just didn't exist in real life—silky shoulder-length hair, chest impossibly broad, and a predatory manner that just screamed dark and dangerous. He was looking for something. Her.
She was the one. She had the mark. Casey had to die so his kind could live, and it was Theron's duty to bring her in. But even as a 200-year-old descendent of Hercules, he wasn't strong enough to resist the pull in her fathomless eyes, to tear himself away from the heat of her body.
As war with the Underworld nears, someone will have to make the ultimate sacrifice.
Contest closes Thursday, June 16th. Three (3) winners will be picked on Friday, June 17, one winner for each prize. Prizes will be mailed directly from the author. Good luck to everyone!!

I'm optimistic in thinking that we're almost night weaned. I really hope I'm not counting my chickens though. DD is 23 months and is still very big on nursing, which i don't mind but i really need my nights back. We still co-sleep and we bring a little water bottle to bed for her. The last week I've been imposing limits, I let her know that we're gonna wait till it's light out/morning.
1st night: 15 mins of crying then 15 mins of fidgiting
2nd night: 5 mins of crying about 20 mins of fidgiting
3rd night: no crying, but got up and fidgited about a half hour
4th night: 10mins of crying, no fidgiting
5th night: no crying and only 5 mins of fidgiting.
I have yet to give in at night and have stuck to the plan, which i think is working for my strong willed child. I'm hoping she continues to only wake up once and can just go to sleep with cuddles or fidgiting( but not for to long) and then eventually stops waking up at night in general... This would be very nice. She still nurses during the day when we're home, she never asks for it when we're out so I don't have to worry about it. She has started to increase her solids and will go into the fridge and pull out the milk and ask for it.
Does any other momma's no any other tricks for night weaning? did it start out rough, then better, then rough?

My son was born 3 weeks ago and had no problem latching on other than when I was engorged we needed to use a breast shield. Overcame that problem but now he seems to only want to feed for 5-10 minutes at a time and is wanting to feed about every 45 minutes. In the beginning it would take him about 45 minutes to feed and would feed about every hour or so. My husband and I decided to introduce a bottle about 5 days ago and he seemed to do fine with that. I am pumping during the feeding session that he is getting a bottle. I am also pumping after each feeding to increase my milk supply so I can freeze the milk for future use. I am so frustated right now that I just want to give up or I just want to pump and give him bottles. my husband is against solely bottles because of the bonding issue.
One last thing is when he is feeding he falls asleep easily and is hard to kept awake. When he was born he weighed 5 lbs 15oz and 19 in long. Now he weighs over 7 lbs so I know he is getting enough to eat. I am just frustrated that he is feeding so often. I have tried calling a couple of la leche coaches but have not heard back.
Please help me and my son!!

2013 PSAE Scores Posted on IWAS — Grade 11
PSAE 2013 scores on the Student Information System (SIS)
The 2013 preliminary results for PSAE are now available for district review in SIS. Please see http://www.isbe.net/assessment/pdfs/asmt_scores_desc.pdf for assessment score descriptions.
- Immediately review your data for any errors or omissions.
- Assessment Correction will close on Tuesday, July 16
- There will be no extensions.
Checking your PSAE Data: 3 Steps
Step 1: Review the Assessment Correction Detail Report
Students whose PSAE scores are assigned to your district must be listed on your Assessment Correction report in order for their scores to be displayed in the Assessment Scores Detail report. Many student scores are not matched to a district because they are not included in the Assessment Correction report.
Once you have added students to your Assessment Correction report, their scores should match the next day after an overnight process has run its course. If scores do not match, contact the Help Desk for assistance at 217-558-3600.
Verify all demographic data in this report for accuracy, especially the "Enrolled in Home School/District on or Before May 1" fields.
Step 2: Review the Assessment Scores Detail Report:
Sort this report by "error" and take action to clear all error codes displayed in the right-most column.
If a student has no score or partial scores and DID test, check to see if the student is listed on the Unassigned Test Results report. If the student is not listed on the Unassigned Test Results report, contact Megan Forness at 1-866-317-6034.
If a student has no score and DID NOT test, please provide the "reason for not testing" code using the "Assessment" link in SIS. Reasons for not testing are defined online at www.isbe.net/sis/pdf/not_testing.pdf. Contact the SIS Help Desk at 217-558-3600 if you need additional assistance.
Step 3: Review the Unassigned Test Results Report:
Students who tested and are not listed on any districts' Assessment Correction report appear on the Unassigned Test Results Report for both the school that tested the student and the home school reported by the school that tested the student. Claim these scores by adding the student to your Assessment Correction report.
How do I Invalidate or Merge PSAE scores?
If your district erroneously tested a student who was not in grade 11, district staff may contact ISBE to request that the PSAE scores be invalidated. Scores may be invalidated by calling Megan Forness at 1-866-317-6034. When the final Assessment Scores report is posted in August, invalidated PSAE scores will appear as "NA" and a PSAE score report will not be printed for the student.
If a student's PSAE Day 1 scores appear in a row separate from the student's PSAE Day 2 scores in the Assessment Scores report, error code 3 will appear. To clear this error code and identify these rows to be merged, contact Megan Forness at 1-866-317-6034. When the final Assessment Scores report is posted in August, the two rows will be merged into one row and PSAE scores will display.
How do I find out if I have students with scores that are on my district's Unassigned Test Results report, and how do I match these students to their scores?

Use Reason for Not Testing code 16, "Part-Time Enrollment (Exempt from State Testing for Applicable Content Areas)."
Please note: Students whose PSS indicator was set to "YES" when the Assessment Correction report was created should already have a Reason for Not Testing code of 18 "PSS-SIS Use Only (Exempt from State Testing)" applied.
How do I request a rescore?
Districts may request a rescore by submitting the 2013 Rescore Request form, posted online at www.isbe.net/assessment/psae.htm under the heading "Announcements" to ISBE. Submit no later than July 16, 2013 4:00 pm.

Zhukov Dance Theatre: Product 06
Zhukov Dance Theatre: Product 06
The first contemporary dance performance at the SFJAZZ Center will feature world premieres from two acclaimed choreographers: Yuri Zhukov and Idan Sharabi.
Zhukov, now in his sixth season as Artistic Director of ZDT, has created a piece set to music by Icelandic composer Johann Johannsson, Spanish composer Jordi Savall, and Bach, interspersed with works by modern classical composers and layered electronic sounds.
Sharabi, who is based in Tel Aviv, created an emotionally charged response to the city of San Francisco and its denizens, accompanied by a soundscape that incorporates everything from Scriabin to Robin Thicke. "I was interested in grabbing movement from those around us — on the street, on Muni — and observing how people respond physically in the moment, as compared to the preparation of a dancer," says Mr. Sharabi, whose piece is titled "Spider on a Mirror."
This in not an SFJAZZ presented concert. SFJAZZ ticket policies do not necessarily apply.

For the last week my DS has been chewing on his lower lip almost constantly. Today, at his last feeding he seemed depesperate to latch on and start sucking but once he did he started crying and screaming. He would thne stop sucking cry and then latch on again. He did this about 4 times before he gave up entirely and just kept crying. He only quieted down once I had him in my arms and I gave him a teething ring to chew on. He has also started sucking/chewing on his thumb with a vengence in the last few days as well.
He 51/2 months old now so I think he's old enough for it to be tarting but I'm a first time mom so I'm not sure and I'm not exactly sure how to help him. My MIL told me that for her children once the tooth was really showing her husband cut the gum open with a sugar cube to get it over with. Needless to say I won't be doing that but I'm looking for thoughts as to if this really is teething and what others who have gone through this have dobe that helped?

Building upgrades planned at Betsey Mills Club
It's been nearly 86 years since William Mills, in honor of his wife, combined two homes and added a swimming pool and gymnasium to house the Betsey Mills Club at the corner of Fourth and Putnam streets in Marietta.
Those original facilities are slated for some upgrades this year, thanks to some planning and $449,200 in donations over the last couple of years.
"Maintaining the building and facilities was becoming more expensive, due to the aging infrastructure," said Nancy Hollister, special projects manager and former president of the Betsey Mills Corporate Board.
She noted the buildings are still steam-heated from the original boiler system installed in the 1920s, and the electrical system is not up to par.
"When you look at those and other infrastructure issues, budgeting for the facility was becoming extremely difficult," Hollister explained. "So a couple years ago the board began looking at what we could do and had architect David Haught (with DLH Design, LLC) do an energy study on the buildings."
Using that study the board worked with the architect to develop plans for a series of renovations and updates to the facilities.
The upgrades, scheduled to begin as early as March 29, will include a complete electrical upgrade for all buildings, replacement of the boiler system and installation of heating and air conditioning in the Learning Tree rooms.
Other work will include renovation of the men's and women's locker rooms and installation of a new furnace and air system for the upstairs dorm rooms.
"We're so very grateful to our donors that we're able to begin this project after two years of planning," Hollister said.
Those donations included $58,200 from The McDonough Foundation; $25,000 from the Marietta Community Foundation; $100,000 in state funding; $16,000 from the Peoples Bank Foundation; and $250,000 from The Castle.
Linda Lewis, executive director of the Betsey Mills Club, said The Castle and Betsey Mills Club are part of the Betsey Mills Corporation.
"We're sister organizations under the corporation," she said. "And through an investment fund The Castle was able to share a significant donation."
Castle Executive Director Scott Britton said the museum was fortunate to have the money available from a trust fund left by a previous owner of the facility.
"Through some transfers out of that fund we were fortunately able to provide funding to help the Betsey Mills Club which was facing some financial difficulties to do this project," he said.
Lewis said although the upgrades will be costly, most of the work will be on the buildings' infrastructure and won't be readily visible to the public.
"But we also wanted to preserve the historical integrity of these buildings, so we've worked closely with the Ohio Historical Society to develop this project," she said.
Hollister noted one portion of the project as originally envisioned included replacement of windows throughout the buildings.
"We had an original estimate of $1.4 million for everything, but part of that was replacing all of the windows which would be extremely expensive, so last year we removed that from the renovation budget," she said.
The windows replacement will likely be done as a future project, Lewis said.
She added that services and programs offered at the Betsey Mills Club are not expected to see much impact during the construction period.
"There should be very minimal impact on services," she said. "And our day care center probably won't see any impact."
Work on the electrical system is expected to begin at the end of March, according to Hollister.
"The goal I have in mind is that everything would be done by the end of this year if things move along," she said. "But this will be an ongoing story-it's just the beginning for the Betsey Mills Club's future."
Hollister said the public can also help support the club during its annual Chicken Pot Pie at the Betsey Mills Club fundraiser on Feb. 22 and 23.

text: This is a new one for me. Drew is nearly 4 months old and ebf. Twice now, he's had thicker poop. The color is right but the consistancy is of a formula poop,thick and pasty. There have been no solids either. Any ideas? He tends to be a gassy baby anyway but seems gassier when this happens.

This image of galaxy cluster MS 0735.6+7421 was taken with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope in February 2006. The Advanced Camera for Surveys image shows dozens of galaxies bound together by gravity. Diffuse, hot gas with a temperature of nearly 50 million degrees permeates the space between the galaxies. A supermassive black hole weighing nearly a billion times the mass of our Sun lurks in the nucleus of the bright central galaxy.
