Dinners that are delicious and filling yet simple and only around 500 calories. Plus a few not so healthy things thrown in too!

Peanut Butter Dip
So it's nearing dinner, it's just me and the kids for dinner tonight. My son asks me for apple with peanut butter. Hey! I have a better idea! I pull out a recipe that I've been waiting to try for peanut butter dip.
It was super easy to put together. My kids loved it. It totally rocked. Seriously. It's peanut butter, how could it not be awesome!
My kids all ate a respectable portion but their mother hoarked down 1/2 of it. So this was dinner for me. I figure it is protein and fruit so it wasn't THAT bad of a dinner. It wasn't what was planned but I still did good with my calories for the day. It also kept me full so it was all okay.
(Yes, I feel like I am rationalizing to you why I ate apple, celery and peanut butter dip for dinner). It was good, so there. :-)

Festive & Fair1 of 15
By Natasha Burton
To get into the spirit of the season, we're taking a look back at the best holiday movie beauty moments of all time—and the actresses who wore them. See the most memorable hair and makeup looks of the past, including pin curls, pompadours and perms.
The Write Stuff2 of 15
In the 1945 classic Christmas in Connecticut, Barbara Stanwyck plays Elizabeth Lane, a single, independent NYC writer who pretends to be a model housewife (and mother) in her magazine column—and then ends up having to actually act the part. Playing a softer role than in her previous films, Stanwyck's longer hair is shaped in classic 1940s curls with short bangs, kept perfectly coiffed with a headscarf. Her carefully controlled style reflects the citified career woman she portrays.
A Mother's Work3 of 15
To play George Bailey's wife, Mary, in It's a Wonderful Life (1946), Donna Reed had a look that emphasized her character's sweet nature. Her neutral eye and red lips (evident in the color version of the classic film) were paired with soft pin curls, which also matched those of her on-screen kids—including the adorable Zuzu.
Subtle Stunner4 of 15
In 1947's The Bishop's Wife, actress Loretta Young often wore her hair in a chignon instead of the more glamorous curled style. During World War II, the 'do was popular among women who worked in factories to support the war effort, so the style reinforced the tenor of Young's modest character.
Belief System5 of 15
Maureen O'Hara's half-up, half-down 'do in A Miracle on 34th Street (1947) combined swept-up bangs with iconic rolled curls of the era, and no-nonsense combs. The prim style reflected her character's disposition as a cynical single mom whose holiday spirit is renewed through the eyes of her daughter (played by a young Natalie Wood) and, yes, Kris Kringle himself.
Elegant Escapism6 of 15
To play war widow Connie Ennis in Holiday Affair (1949), Janet Leigh's hair was set into a deep, dramatic part with a front-wave, a popular '40s style that epitomized glamour. Through the dazzling styles in World War II films like this, moviegoers found pleasure and distraction during troubled times.
Pomp and Circumstance7 of 15
One style that transitioned from the '40s into the '50s (and is making a resurgence on red carpets today) is the pompadour. In White Christmas (1954), Rosemary Clooney wears a subtle version of this look to play a glamorous singer. Her 'do adds a dose of drama whether it's styled smooth or waved.
Sister Act8 of 15
In the holiday horror movie Home for the Holidays (1972), Sally Field, Eleanor Parker, Jill Haworth and Jessica Walter play sisters. All women sported the cat-eye liner that came into fashion in the '70s. To represent the age and personality differences between the women, each one's hair is styled into a different look.
High, Mom9 of 15
The permed curls in A Christmas Story (1983) fit perfectly with the decade of excess. To play an everyday mom in this wry holiday classic, actress Melinda Dillon adopted the big hair that was the signature style of the time.
Big Moment10 of 15
As the long-suffering wife and mom Ellen Griswold in Christmas Vacation (1989), Beverly D'Angelo's hair was styled in teased waves reminiscent of the 'dos on the era's popular soap Dynasty.
Oh, Brother11 of 15
OK, so Mixed Nuts (1994) clearly stars a man (actor Liev Schreiber) dressed as a woman. However, his smoky eye, blunt-cut bangs and drawn-on beauty mark showcase the edgy, goth-esque look that became popular in the '90s.
Home Girl12 of 15
Claire Danes' fresh-faced '90s style in Home for the Holidays (1995) fits perfectly into this family film. (Though the beanie she sports in the film adds a decidedly grunge edge, reminiscent of her My So-Called Life character, Angela Chase.)
Singular Style13 of 15
With her bedhead and holiday-printed PJs, Renee Zellweger's look in Bridget Jones's Diary (2001), a Christmastime romantic comedy, is decidedly undone. Unsurprisingly, women everywhere related to Bridget's lovable, underdog spirit.
Elfin Magic14 of 15
To play Will Ferrell's love interest Jovie in Elf (2003), Zooey Deschanel dyed her dark hair blond, a move that she later called a big mistake. However, the softer shade fit her look for this film. As a department-store elf, her curled angelic locks and minimal makeup gave her a lovable and youthful glow.
Retro Waves15 of 15
Sharon Leal's loose waves in This Christmas (2007) are reminiscent of the classic holiday-film stars, paying homage to the likes of Stanwyck and O'Hara, who remain icons of cinematic beauty today.

Urticaria, Papular
National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc.
It is possible that the main title of the report Urticaria, Papular is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
General Discussion
Papular urticaria, usually called hives, is characterized by large numbers of very itchy red bumps (papules) that come and go every few days over a period of a month or so. The bumps are usually between 0.2 and 2 cm. in size and some may develop into fluid-filled blisters (bullae). This condition is usually triggered by allergic reactions to insect bites, sensitivity to drugs, or other environmental causes. In some cases, swelling of the soft tissues of the face, neck, and hands (angioedema) may also occur.
Because it is difficult for children and adults to resist scratching these itchy crusted bumps, the possibility of infection is great and caution must be taken. Papular urticaria may accompany, or even be the first symptom of various viral infections including hepatitis, infectious mononucleosis, or German measles (rubella). Some acute reactions are unexplained, even when recurrent.

This fishing report is provided by the Department of Game and Fish.
East-Central, including the Pecos River
Coyote Creek — The flow is 1.5 cfs. No report.
Pecos River — The flow is 34 cfs. The river is continues to fish well. The water is very clear, so go to long leaders, fine tippets and a smaller flies. Some midges but blue winged olives are the only dry fly game left on the Pecos. Nymphing with a dry dropper rig can end your slump if they aren't coming up on your dry fly. Try flashback pheasant tails or a tungsten micro may. The river was stocked with 999 triploid rainbow trout last week.
Conchas Lake — Fishing is reported as slow. North Dock reports that white bass are being taken in 40 to 45 feet of water when suspended at 15-20 feet with jigs and slabs. No report on other species.
Morphy Lake — The lake has closed for the season and will reopen next spring.
Santa Rosa Lake — No report.
Storrie Lake — Fishing is fair to good for trout using Power Bait, cheese balls and worms.
Sumner Lake — Sumner Lake is open to boating. The east ramp is open for launching. Walleye are reported as fair. No report on what's working. Pressure has been light.
Ute Lake — The fishing is starting to pick up a bit. White bass are being caught near steep structure in the main part of the lake. Walleye were caught in the same places. All fish were caught on the white slabs. Fishing pressure remains on the light side.


text: I'm not used to this board because my DS is 8.5 months old however I'm trying not to FREAK out by this issue. My husband [ bless his heart ] is trying to plan a 5-7 night cruise for just us when my son is about 13/14 months old. I am literally having anxiety every time I think about this. My son has been strictly BF and just started to eat solids [ scraps from our plate every now and then to practice but not every day or even every week ] and still eats every 2 hours [ even over night! ]. I don't see how this is even going to be possible. How much could his nursing change by then? I do pump while I'm at work 4 days of the week [ 10 hour shifts ] but I can't imagine leaving enough for even over night! I'm trying to think of this as a romantic gesture and not torture! Will he even be eating this much at 13/14 months old? Will he still be eating every 2 hours at night? EEK!!

JERUSALEM - Israel voiced doubt on Tuesday about claims that chemical weapons had been used against rebels fighting to topple President Bashar Assad.
Activists on Monday claimed civilians had suffered injuries consistent with exposure to some kind of poisonous gas.
"We have seen reports from the opposition. It is not the first time. The opposition has an interest in drawing in international military intervention," Vice Prime Minister Moshe Yaalon said on Army Radio.
"As things stand now, we do not have any confirmation or proof that (chemical weapons) have already been used, but we are definitely following events with concern," he said.
Syria activists: Several die after Assad's forces use 'poisonous gases'
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights gathered activist accounts on Sunday of what they said was a poison gas attack in the city of Homs. The reports are difficult to verify, as the government restricts media access in Syria.
The Observatory, a British-based group with a network of activists across Syria, said those accounts spoke of six rebel fighters who died after inhaling smoke on the front line of Homs's urban battleground. It said it could not confirm that poison gas had been used and called for an investigation.
Syria has said it would never use chemical weapons against its citizens.
Asked about images purported to show patients being treated for possible gas poisoning, Yaalon said: "I'm not sure that what we're seeing in the photos is the result of the use of chemical weapons.
"It could be other things," he said, without elaborating.
On Sunday, senior Israeli defense official Amos Gilad said Syria's chemical weapons were still secure despite the fact that Assad had lost control of parts of the country.
As Syria's southern neighbor, Israel has been concerned about chemical weapons falling into the hands of Islamist militants or Lebanese Hezbollah fighters, cautioning it could intervene to stop such developments.
Earlier this month, President Barack Obama warned Assad that the use of chemical weapons by his regime would be "totally unacceptable.""If you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons there will be consequences and you will be held accountable," he said.

- Electrophysiological studies of human face perception II: response properties of face-specific potentials generated in occipitotemporal cortex
- Author(s)
- McCarthy, Gregory; Puce, Aina; Belger, Aysenil; Allison, Truett
- Abstract
- In the previous paper the locations and basic response properties of N200 and other face-specific event-related potentials (ERPs) were described. In this paper responsiveness of N200 and related ERPs to the perceptual features of faces and other images was assessed. N200 amplitude did not vary substantially, whether evoked by colored or grayscale faces; normal, blurred or line-drawing faces; or by faces of different sizes. Human hands evoked small N200s at face-specific sites, but evoked hand-specific ERPs at other sites. Cat and dog faces evoked N200s that were 73% as large as to human faces. Hemifield stimulation demonstrated that the right hemisphere is better at processing information about upright faces and transferring it to the left hemisphere, whereas the left hemisphere is better at processing information about inverted faces and transferring it to the right hemisphere. N200 amplitude was largest to full faces and decreased progressively to eyes, face contours, lips and noses viewed in isolation. A region just lateral to face- specific N200 sites was more responsive to internal face parts than to faces, and some sites in ventral occipitotemporal cortex were face-part-specific. Faces with eyes averted or closed evoked larger N200s than those evoked by faces with eyes forward. N200 amplitude and latency were affected by the joint effects of eye and head position in the right but not in the left hemisphere. Full and three-quarter views of faces evoked larger N200s than did profile views. The results are discussed in relation to behavioral studies in humans and single-cell recordings in monkeys.

text: I'm having trouble with an extremely tender spot on my breast. It feels like a really bad bruise or a plugged duct, but there aren't any lumps, swelling, or redness. I'm currently nursing an 11 month old who is recovering from the stomach flu, so she barely ate anything for a day (I pumped a couple of times) and now she's back to nursing exclusively. She usually eats lots of solids but hasn't started them back up yet. Any ideas about what this could be and how I can make it feel better?

From bacon milkshakes to bacon candy to bacon martinis, today's best chefs have come up with countless recipes to showcase the crisp, salty and sweet meat. New ideas and venerable classics alike tap into perhaps the quintessential carnivore's truism: Bacon makes everything better. Its versatility is second only to its deep, smoky flavor. "Bacon has an ability to bring out and amplify the flavors of whatever it is paired with," says Chris Koetke, vice president ...

It is often necessary to compromise face-to-face, but to compromise when stating principles means you have none.
Something I read a few days ago had someone referring to themselves as "ideologically extreme, behaviorally moderate." I like that phrase.
I am serious about libertarianism. I also know that as long as someone is not attacking anyone, either physically or economically, no one has the right to try to force them to stop whatever they are doing. In that case, there is always room for compromise if the other person will agree to keep their hands off your body, your property and your life, both personally and legislatively, as long as you are not harming any innocent person. Remember that being offended is NOT the same as being harmed, since harm must involve actual physical or economic damage.
Unfortunately, this proves to be difficult when people believe they have the right or the authority to control the non-aggressive, consensual behavior of those around them. But there is no such right and the authority is never real.
That is why compromise seems so difficult when a libertarian is trying to deal with a person who believes it is right to use force. All the "compromise" that such a person proposes is about how much the liberty of the other will be violated. That is not compromise, it is losing ground that can't be regained; it is standing aside while someone harms you.
Principles are a line in the sand. Whether you defend them or not is up to you, but they don't shift around like shadows. If I am laying out the principles of libertarianism, I do no service to anyone by being wishy-washy or a "nerf libertarian." Compromise can come when you decide whether or not to defend that particular principle from this specific violator at this exact moment.
Your choice may affect your life, but it doesn't change the facts of the principles one iota.

They look like meat, but are 100% vegetarian. A great source of protein for vegetarians, soya chunks and granules come with the added benefits of iron and calcium. Indian households are no strangers to this textured vegetarian protein that is made from soya flour, and is also enriched with Omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin B and fiber. So why not try a soya based recipe for dinner today? Here are 13, tried and tested, extremely healthy, protein-rich, soya chunk and granule recipes. *Images courtesy: © Thinkstock photos/Getty Images Soy Chapatti Rolls Ingredients 2 Chapatis cooked in a typical Indian style (on a tawa) 1 Egg beaten (add salt and pepper to taste) 1 cup of Soya granules 2 tablespoon of Pudina (hari) chutney 4 tablespoon of Chopped cucumber 4 tablespoon of Chopped radish A pinch of garam masala 1 tablespoon of oil Method 1. Soak soya granules in a cup of water for an hour or so. 2. Now take the prepared chapatti and dip it into the beaten egg mixture. Add one teaspoon oil to a non-stick pan (on each chapatti) and roast it. 3. Once the chapatti is ready, put a thin layer of pudina chutney, soya stuffing, cucumber, radish and garam masala. 4. Roll the chapatti in the shape of a roll and your soya chapatti rolls are ready. Soya Matar Pasanda Ingredients Nutrela soya mini chunks – 2 cups (Cooked as per instructions on the pack) Cumin seeds – 1 tsp. Garlic grated – 2 tsp. Onion paste – 1/2 cup Tomatoes – 1/2 cup (Finely chopped) Turmeric powder – 2 pinches Red chilli powder – as per taste Salt – to taste Green peas (Shelled) – 1 cup heaped Coriander cumin powder – 1 tsp. Oil – 2 tbsp. Method 1. The recipe calls for frying the granules after cooking. I omitted this. 2. Heat oil and splutter the cumin seeds. Add ginger, garlic, onion pastes and fry on slow fire till the light brown. 3. Add tomatoes, haldi, red chilli powder, salt and peas and cook till the tomatoes turn soft and mushy. Add water to cook to get desired consistency. I kept it a little thickish as I served it with parathas. 4. Add nutrela chunks and coriander cumin powder, and cover and cook till the masalas blend well. 5. Garnish and serve hot. Cholia Soya Bean Pulao Ingredients 250 g basmati rice 250 mL water (for boiling rice) 3 tsp salt 20 nos soya bean chunks 1 no onions, large 2 Tbsp canola oil 1 no bay leaf 2 tsp jeera (cumin) 3 nos cloves 10 nos black peppercorn 1 no cinnamon, 1-inch long 2 nos, green chilly small 100 g cholia (fresh green gram) Method 1. Pick, wash and soak rice for half an hour. Boil water and add salt. Remove from fire and drop in soya bean chunks for 15 minutes. 2. Peel onion and thickly slice. Heat heavy bottom and add canola oil. Add bay leaf, jeera, cloves, peppercorn and cinnamon. Once they splutter, add onions and green chillies slit and sauté until onion turns light brown. Squeeze out excess water from the soya chunks and along with cholia, add to pan. Add salt and sauté for 2 minutes. Add salt and rice. Now pour water and let rice boil. 3. Once half the water is evaporated, turn the heat low and cover with tight-fitting lid. 4. Cook for another 8 minutes and turn off heat. Let it rest in this position for another 10 minutes. 5. Remove lid and serve hot. Vegetable Pulao Ingredients 1 cup brown rice - washed and soaked 2 cups chopped, mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, cauliflower, broccoli) 1 medium onion diced 1/2 cup sprouts 1/2 cup soya chunks - soaked and ready to cook 1'' cinnamon stick 1 tsp cloves 1/2 tsp black peppercorns 2 black cardamoms 1 tsp red chill powder Salt to taste 2 cups water 1 tbs Olive oil Method 1. Add the oil to a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. After a few seconds, add the onions and stir till the onions become light pink. 2.Add all the whole spices, along with the vegetables (not sprouts and soya). Stir well, and cook (covered, with 1/4 cup water) until the hardest vegetable (in this case carrots) is slightly tender. If you're short on time, skip the carrots. This should take about 5-8 minutes. 3. Add sprouts and soya and stir for 2-3 minutes. 4.Now, add the drained brown rice, with salt and chilli powder. You can also add any other favourite masalas at this point. Stir till the rice starts forming clumps. 5. Then, add the 2 cups of water and bring the whole pot to a boil. After the boil, simmer and cook covered, till the rice is cooked - usually another 8 minutes. Baked Soybean Kofta Ingredients For the Koftas 1 cup Soy beans 1 large potato 1 small onion, (shallots/red onions work great.) 1-2 green chillies, finely sliced (or as per taste) Few cilantro sprigs for garnish Juice and zest of one lemon Salt to taste About 1/2-1 cup of Soya chunks (Indian stores) or TVP (in US stores) For Simple Gravy 1 onion, chopped finely 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 tbsp tomato paste (optional) About 1/4-1/2 cup tomato puree 1/4 tsp turmeric 1 tsp garam masala 1 bay leaf Salt to taste Method 1. Soak the soy beans overnight. Cook them in a pressure cooker. No problems if it gets mushy. We are going to do that anyways. 2. Steam the potato in the steamer (with the skin. It has nutrition too) 3. Now mix all the ingredients for the koftas together except the soya chunks/TVP. Mash them with your hands or pulse it up in your food processor - whatever works for you. 4.If you are not able to make it into a ball and the dough seems moist, add some soy flour to thicken it up. 5. Spread the soy chunks on a plate and coat the balls with them. 6. Repeat with all the balls and place them in a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for about 10-15 minutes in an 400F oven. 7. Meanwhile in a skillet, in a 1/4 tsp oil (or skip the oil. Just place the onions and cumin on the hot skillet with some salt. The salt will bring out the moisture and help the onions cook easily. That way you cut the oil and make this dish oil free), saute the cumin seeds along with onions, ginger garlic paste and the spices together for a minute until soft. 8. Add the tomato paste (if using) and the puree. 9. Add enough water to make sufficient gravy and once it comes to a boil, thicken it up with little soy flour/cornstarch and bring it to a simmer. 10. Remove the koftas from the Oven and pour half the sauce over each of the koftas until they are soaked in the gravy. 11. Bake them for another 10 minutes and before serving pour out the remaining gravy. Potato and Soya Chunks Masala Ingredients 2 of medium-sized potatoes 1.5 cups of soya chunks (TVP / Nutrela / Meal Maker) 2 of onions 2 of tomatoes 2 cloves of garlic, crushed 1 small piece of ginger, grated 2 of green chillies 1/2 tsp of red chilli powder 2 tsp of coriander powder 3 tbsp of oil 1/2 tsp of jeera (cumin) 1/4 tsp of mustard seeds 1/4 tsp of saunf (fennel seeds) 1/4 tsp of turmeric powder 1/4 tsp of urad dal A few curry leaves Salt to taste Method 1. Chop the potatoes into small cubes. Peel and cube it if you prefer. Also, potatoes here cook up very fast so I don't par boil them. If you feel it will take too long, pressure cook the potatoes or boil them in some water for 10 mins before using. You can use any variety of potato you like. Slice the onions and tomatoes thin and long. 2. Cook the soya chunks in boiling water with some salt for 10 mins until soft. You can also pressure cook it in some water but I find that cooking it this way is easier. You can add some milk to it at this stage to get rid of the smell of soya chunks. We don't mind it so much so I don't waste milk doing that. Drain and set aside. 3. Heat oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds. When they pop, add the cumin, urad dal, fennel seeds, green chillies, garlic ginger, and curry leaves. Saute for a minute until the ginger and garlic smell roasted. Then add the onions and saute until they turn golden brown. Follow it with turmeric, red chilli powder, and coriander. Fry for another minute. Then, add the tomatoes and cook until the mixture turns mushy - about 3-4 mins. 4. Squeeze the water out of the cooked soya granules as much as possible and add it to the above mixture along with the potatoes. Mix well and add salt. Sprinkle some water over it and cook covered, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are cooked soft - about 10 mins. Serve hot with rotis or chapatis. I have also served this with jeera rice and it goes well. Soya Chunks Curry Ingredients 1 cup nutri nuggets (big soya bean chunks) 2 medium size potatoes cut into pieces 1 big onion thinly chopped 5-6 tomatoes chopped 4 green chillies chopped 2 tsp ginger-garlic paste 1/2 tsp red chilli powder 1/2 tsp turmeric powder 2 tsp coriander powder 1 tsp garam masala powder 1/4 tsp dry mango powder 1/2 tsp cumin (jeera) powder 2 tsp vegetable oil Fresh cilantro chopped Salt to taste Method 1. Heat a pressure cooker and add oil. 2. When the oil starts heating then add green chillies and ginger-garlic paste. 3. Saute for few seconds and add onion. Cook for few seconds. 4. Add chopped tomatoes, salt, red chilli powder and turmeric powder. 5. Cook for 3-4 minutes on low flame. 6. Now turn the gas off and leave to cool this mixture for few minutes in the cooker only. 7. With the help of electric hand blender, blend this mixture well. 8. Again turn on the gas and keep the cooker on high flame. 9. Now add pieces of potatoes and nutri nuggets. 10. Mix well and add coriander powder and garam masala powder. 11. Add 2 cups of water and cover the cooker with its lid. 12. Wait for 6 whistles (It will take about 5-6 minutes). 13. Do not open the cooker until full steam come out. 14. Uncover and add little bit of water if required, also add cumin powder and dry mango powder. 15. Garnish with fresh cilantro and wait for few boils. 16. Serve hot with roti or rice.

My LO seems to have reached her 6 week growth spurt - for the past 3 days she is eating NONSTOP during the day. I'm fine with that, I actually enjoy having all the quality time with her - even if it annoys my in-laws My issue is that she has also started sleeping for a 5-6 hour stretch at night. Who'd have thought that I'd have an issue with too much sleep from a newborn!!!
It truly seems to be one extreme or the other - during the day, she'll take one side for 25-30 minutes, fall asleep on the breast for about 5 minutes and then wake up and take the other side for 15-20 minutes. She'll doze off for 10-15 minutes after. She's repeating this pattern every 1-1 1/2 hours from 8a-930p and in the evenings she seems really frustrated, like she's starving right after she's done. She'll fall asleep ~930. She'll nurse again around midnight and then sleeps until ~530a!!! By that time, my boobs are FULL and she'll only nurse on one side and falls asleep within 10-15 minutes, even though it doesn't feel empty and the other side is painfully aware that DD hasn't touched it in a few hours
This is taking a toll on me and making me question myself. Should I be waking her at night to feed her? Will my supply ever be "regulated"? Should I pump in the middle of the night? I've been offering each boob twice in a row and then switching (so it's the second boob from one feeding and then the first for the next) but with her nursing so frequently, should I just be alternating? Should I be block feeding or would that actually compound the problem by cutting my supply back? I'm so confused...DH will offer advice but what does he know? Not like this is anything that he's done before Of course, as soon as I think that, I feel like a major witch because he truly is so supportive and wonderful with both our girls.
It seems like this was so much easier with DD1 - although that could be through the same memory glasses that say labor wasn't so bad
Thank you to anyone who has taken the time to read this...the forums are such a wonderful outlet for my frustrations and I appreciate that as much as I appreciate any and all advice the wonderful moms on here have to offer!

Funny thing is he thinks we still make the playoffs with that record. Predicts 2nd in the division, 7th in the AC.
Big reason for the record, Bargnani makes us worse. Relying on 3 pt shooting and losing Novak and Copeland and replacing them with Bargs and MWP drops us from 3 offensively to 20.

Columbus Day honors the explorer Christopher Columbus, who first landed in the New World on October 12, 1492. While Columbus's nationality has never been positively identified, many believe he was of Italian descent, and throughout the nineteenth century, Italian-Americans held celebrations in cities across the United States to honor his memory. In 1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt proclaimed October 12 Columbus Day. President Richard Nixon later declared Columbus Day a national holiday to be observed the second Monday of each October.

UTSA, Seattle draw in Western Athletic Conference opener on Friday night
SAN ANTONIO — Sophomore Liv Nyhegn put UTSA on top early in the second half, but Seattle rallied for the equalizer and the teams battled to a 1-1 tie on Friday night in a rainy Western Athletic Conference opener for both squads.
After a scoreless opening stanza, the Roadrunners (1-7-1, 0-0-1 WAC) grabbed a 1-0 lead in the 56th minute when Nyhegn scored off a rebound near the goal. Junior Anka Grotle started the play with a shot that bounced off the crossbar before Nyhegn popped the ball over the head of goalkeeper Brianna Smallidge and into the back of the net for her first goal of the season.
However, the lead did not last, as the Redhawks (5-5-1, 0-0-1 WAC) tied things up in the 80th minute. Stephanie Verdoia took a pass from just outside the penalty box and fired a shot that freshman goalie Katarina Pus appeared to stop, but the ball slid through her gloves and into the net.
UTSA nearly came away with a victory in regulation when junior Maria Jose Rojas slipped past the defense and beat Smallidge to her right, but the Santiago, Chile, native was whistled for being offsides.
Neither squad could come up with the game-winner in a pair of overtimes and the Roadrunners took their first draw since an Oct. 21, 2011, Southland Conference tilt against Lamar.
Pus logged five saves on the night, including one in extra time, while junior Laylla da Cruz led the Roadrunners with four shots.
UTSA will host Idaho (3-10, 0-1 WAC) at 1 p.m. on Sunday.

Investigators working at a scene in Janesville that could be connected to the case of a girl who went missing in 1947 are done for the day. The search will continue Tuesday morning just after 8 a.m.
A K9 unit detected human remains at the site, according to the Rock County Sheriff's Office, but no remains have been found.
Deputies said they received a tip last week about a 66-year-old case of a missing 8-year-old girl named Georgia Jean Weckler from Jefferson County. She was last seen May 1, 1947 after being dropped off by a neighbor after school at her home on Highway 12 outside of Fort Atkinson.
The driver said Weckler wanted to go into the woods to pick flowers for a May basket. The driver saw the girl get the mail from the mailbox and was never seen after that.
Laverne Weckler was 12 when his younger sister Georgia went missing. Now in his late 70s, word of a new lead brought the memories flooding back.
From his kitchen table the headlines look up at Weckler. There are newspapers that carry news of leads in his sister's abduction but over the years, as 8-year-old Georgia's case turned cold, Weckler stopped thinking about a resolution. So even after a detective came to his door Monday, he didn't believe it would be the end.
"Well, I suppose it could be, but I just don't feel that it's going to be," said Weckler.
Dawn Weckler remembers the beginning of the case just as well as her husband.
She was a young girl in 1947, when investigators focused on a dark car.
"I remember when we would walk to school and a car would go by. We would run into the ditch," said Dawn Weckler.
Dawn said Laverne hasn't looked at the case history a relative put together for them. He said he doesn't need to.
"I don't know if I've forgotten anything but I think from that first day I remember everything that took place," said Laverne Weckler.
"I'm finding it's emotional for me right now to have it brought up and so I'm hoping that it is going to be ended," said Dawn Weckler.
After 66 years of waiting, the couple hopes Tuesday's headlines will bring closure.
"It would be nice in Laverne's lifetime, ours, his sister's, to have that," said Dawn Weckler.
Capt. Todd Christiansen with the Rock County Sheriff's Office said officials have worked on two of 46 grids. Rock County detectives are looking to get equipment to help them.
"It could take days. It's quite a big area and we have to sift through the dirt that's plotted out. There's numerous plots that we have to go through and individually sift the dirt," said Christiansen.
"Everybody's been talking about her for years and years," said Barbara Fisher, a longtime Janesville resident. Fisher claimed her husband and sister-in-law went to school with Weckler for a short time.
She said the story has been around for years.
"Everybody's been haunted forever and ever," said Fisher.
However, years later, investigators are challenged with digging and sifting through 66 years of built-up ground in an effort to find remains.
"The woods have been here forever, who knows if somebody did something," said Fisher.
Law enforcement officials have gotten leads through the years, but this is the first in-depth investigation off a verified tip.
The Janesville Police Department is assisting with Monday's investigation at the corner of East Rotamer and Wright roads.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, Wisconsin K9 SOS Search and Rescue and the Wisconsin Department of Justice are at the scene.
Investigators said they will also talk again with the man who tipped them off to the site, who they described only as an older Rock County resident.

This series of Hubble Space Telescope images reveals the breakup of an asteroid over a period of several months starting in late 2013. The largest fragments are up to 180 meters (200 yards) in radius, each with "tails" caused by dust lifted from their surfaces and pushed back by the pressure of sunlight. The ten pieces of the asteroid drift apart slowly and show a range of breakup times, suggesting that the disintegration cannot be explained by a collision with another asteroid. One idea for the breakup is that the asteroid was accelerated by sunlight to spin at a fast enough rate to fly apart by centrifugal force. The images were taken in visible light with Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3.

The 10 Richest Colleges in America
NEW YORK ( MainStreet) -- As tuition costs continue to mount at universities across the nation, some colleges are sitting on mountains of cash.
And while some of that cash goes to regular campus operations or scholarships for students with financial need, many schools don't really use it at all, investing the money to fund big future projects. And sometimes, when the economy tanks, the money simply gets lost in the market.
|With a $32 billion endowment last year, Harvard is the richest institution of higher education in the U.S.
Private schools rely on alumni and corporate sponsors to raise funds for the school's endowment fund, and while some endowments face restrictions in how money gets spent (as in some donations can be spent only after a certain amount of time, or can be invested only so as to use the profits, not the capital), many leading universities have taken criticism for collecting the money and sitting on it while raising costs for students.
The most recent comprehensive endowment study from the National Association of College and University Business Owners, which evaluated the endowment funds for 839 institutions in the U.S. as of last year, found 75 with more than $1 billion in the bank.Here are the 10 richest universities in the U.S.
10th-richest: Texas A&M
Endowment funds last year: $7 billion
Change from previous year: 22%
Students last fall: 49,861
Undergraduate tuition: $19,035 (estimated cost of attendance for Texas residents for one year at the main campus)
Ninth-richest: Northwestern University
Endowment funds last year: $7.2 billion
Change from previous year: 20.8%
Students last fall: 20,284
Undergraduate tuition: $40,223 for tuition, room and board

But The Watch does offer some surprises, even though it seems the plot just gets in the way of the four grown men behaving badly as they search for a killer in their sleepy little town.
Stiller plays Evan, a pillar of his community who starts and runs many clubs and organizations throughout his small town and manages the local Costco.
When his night security guard gets viciously attacked and "skinned" during the night, he takes it upon himself to form a neighborhood watch program to catch the killer.
He enlists help from the community, but the only ones who attend the first meeting are Vince Vaughn as Bob, a lonely guy basically raising his teenage daughter alone; Jonah Hill as Franklin, a loose cannon with mental issues; and unfamiliar actor Richard Ayoade as Jamarcus, a recently divorced citizen from England who just wants to hang out but also has ulterior motives.
The movie takes off fast and furious with the cast coming together in about 10 minutes to make sure the audience fills their comedic quota.
It turns out the men are all just a bunch of lonely social rejects looking for friends, much to the chagrin of Stiller's Evan.
The comedy powerhouses constantly step over each other's lines and seemingly try to one-up each other with every sentence.
The dialogue is chocked full of profanity and raunchiness, which actually shouldn't come as a surprise considering the cast.
It's the movie Stiller's last film, Tower Heist, wants to be when it grows up. And the behind-the-scenes shenanigans are surely a movie in itself.
The movie pushes on at a laugh a minute pace, and you actually forget that there's an actual plot and that they're supposed to be doing something.
And that something is finding the killer who turns out to be not of this world. Yes, the killer(s) are actually aliens, taking human skin to wear and blend in to society. A plot twist that comes out of nowhere, unless you've seen the extended movie trailers where it's hinted.
The aliens are using the small town as ground zero for an impending invasion. All they have to do is send out a beacon, located in Costco, and the aliens will begin their attack and destroy Earth.
The aliens are humanoid in form, and the fact that they're actually played by men in foam and latex costumes is a breath of fresh air for sci-fi film nuts. There are some computer generated effects but not many, as they are rarely seen in groups.
When the watch finally "kills" one of the creatures, they wind up taking it over to Bob's house where they take lewd pictures posing with the beast until it inevitably wakes up and nearly kills them.
Vaughn's Bob is the veritable force that carries the movie. His quick-witted remarks and penchant for the ludicrous work well when played against Hill's dry comic charm and Stiller's erratic freak-outs.
Though the characters are never really fleshed out, Bob does interact with his daughter from time to time and shows that he's having a hard time keeping his daughter in check. She's a teenager after all. And Bob would make any father proud in this movie.
The movie reaches outrageous heights and never really comes down. It could have been about the cast going grocery shopping and would still be a laugh riot.
But what do you expect from a movie written by Seth Rogen (40-Year-Old Virgin) and Evan Goldberg (Superbad).
The spot-on casting is worth the price of admission alone, and the title says it all, because when the actors are on screen, all you can really do is watch. And laugh.

Vt. competes for money to help offendersThe Associated Press | March 29,2014As part of a statewide push to effectively combat drug crime, Vermont will compete with as many as a dozen other states for up to $3 million to support strategies to improve the success rates for keeping ex-offenders from returning to prison.
Vermont officials and other state officials attended a Washington, D.C., forum Thursday hosted by the U.S. Justice Departments Bureau of Justice Assistance for states that previously won planning grants through the Statewide Recidivism Reduction program.
The program encourages states to reduce the rate of offenders re-committing crimes and officials say the states that develop effective programs can serve as national models.
Other states invited to attend the forum included Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Justice representatives in attendance highlighted how the federal government can partner with states on cost-effective plans.
Vermont Corrections Commissioner Andy Pallito said that receiving the next round of grants would help the state build capacity to implement their recidivism reduction plans.
Monica Weeber of the Corrections Department said the plans dovetail with Gov. Peter Shumlins state goals and with legislation aimed at streamlining the process for pre-screening and identifying offenders who might be a fit for drug treatment instead of prison.
The planning grant money spurred the creation of a recidivism task force made up of multiple state departments, including Corrections, Health, Children and Families, community partners, health centers, lawmakers and judges, Weeber said.
The state will send its final plans to the Bureau of Justice Assistance by the middle of June and will then apply for the additional grants. The winning states will be announced at the end of September.MORE IN This Just InBARRE TOWN Firefighters faced a collection of adverse conditions as a house on Granitville Road...

Konrad Warzycha With Crew As Preseason Trialist
The Columbus Dispatch - January 27, 2014 10:36 AM
Another familiar face has joined the Crew to open the 2014 preseason schedule. Konrad Warzycha, son of the former Crew coach Robert and a member of the 2013 roster, is in camp as an unsigned trialist, according to a team report.
Warzycha made 13 appearances including two starts last season and remained on the roster after his dad was fired, but his option was not exercised for 2014 as Gregg Berhalter was brought on as coach and sporting director.
The Crew has 29 players under contract. Three draft picks - Ben Sweat, Fifi Baiden and Adam Bedell -- round out the current preseason roster.
Midfielder/forward Dominic Oduro will switch his jersey number from 11 to 8 while designated player Federico Higuain will don No. 10 instead of 33.
The Crew arrived in Bradenton, Fla., on Sunday and will train there for 13 days before returning to Columbus on Feb. 7. While in Bradenton, the Crew is scheduled to play just one game: Feb. 5 at 3:30 p.m. against Swedish side Malmo FF.
Berhalter said the Crew will play just one game during this preseason stretch by design.
"I want to train," he told me Friday. "I want to get on the training field and get some of our ideas across before we put it into action. If it's early and the guys have been off for a while, to me it doesn't make much sense to play."
However, Berhalter added that the league is encouraging the Crew to add at least one more game while it trains in Bradenton. Fellow MLS clubs Chicago, D.C. United, FC Dallas, New England and Toronto FC are all also at the IMG Academy, as is soon-to-be-an-MLS-club Orlando City.

But, it wasn't all smooth sailing for this up-and-coming athlete who was competing at the state level for the first time.
"My first jump was terrible, a low 34, and it gradually got better," Garcia said.
As she adjusted her approach, she was able to place second in preliminaries and her jumps grew to 36 feet, 8 inches; sealing Garcia's position for second place at state.
"Competition was tough," Lady Bulldog coach Doris Johanson said. "We just adjusted and went for the next one."
The girl who placed first at state was the returning champion, who jumped 38 feet, 3 inches.
"I stayed loose because my coach was telling me to stay warm," Garcia said. "I stretched a lot because I had hurt my leg on Thursday before we came. Then I ran faster down the runway and remembered to cycle my leg and get my knees up and fix the little things as we went."
Shifting gears and making changes are second nature for Garcia as she spent the majority of the season balancing track with softball.
"It's hard to go from track to softball and missing track for softball or vice versa," Garcia said.
She credited being more consistent with her practices for how she was able to go farther this year. As state approached, Garcia's daily practices consisted of about 30-40 practice jumps per week.
She also watched videos online for ways to improve her form and technique.
"She's an athlete," Johanson said. "She's matured and had a taste of state because we were successful in volleyball and basketball and that had a big impact. She's a multi-sport person and you learn to work around it."
Johanson has been Garcia's coach for all three years she has been in high school. She went to regionals in the triple jump as a freshman and as a sophomore.
"She helped me even if I had a bad attitude; if I made her mad, she would stay with me," Garcia said.
Her personal best last year was a 36-foot, 6-inch jump at district as a sophomore. That year she didn't make it to finals at regionals, but as a junior she came back swinging.
She returned her junior year to win the area and regional track meets with 34 feet, 11 inches at area and 35 feet, 10.75 inches at regionals; but her current personal best is 36 feet, 10 inches.
She also placed eighth in the long jump and the TRHS mile-relay team placed fifth at regionals.
"We had made regionals in volleyball, and that helped her confidence," Johanson said. "She had been in basketball and then softball made playoffs and all of that together helped her confidence."
Garcia plans on participating in a summer camp to focus on her triple jump and will participate next year as a senior.
"Then that time I am going to bring home the gold," Garcia said.

Posted Sept. 20, 2013
As an international development nonprofit organization, Water For People works with local partners to develop innovative and long-lasting solutions to water, sanitation and hygiene problems so that everyone in the developing world has access to these services. We call this approach "Everyone, Forever." When we say Everyone, we mean every family, every school and every clinic in a defined geographic region — like a district or a municipality — has access to improved water supply. Even the hardest to reach, the poorest and most isolated must have these basic services for everyone to stay healthy and for economic development to occur.
The name also means everyone participates. We work closely with local governments to build capacity and activate funds that have been set aside for water and sanitation. We never fully fund the program and instead leverage our donor dollars with local funds from the government and community so that everyone pays. We believe that communities must understand the importance of paying because inevitably the system will break down and need repair, so monies are put aside for repair and maintenance or even replacement. Our goal is to make sure that the community or district is independent and never needs aid from another nongovernmental organization again.
The forever piece is what sets Water For People apart. Most organizations consider a project complete once the infrastructure is in place. For us, this is where the project begins. We work to ensure that communities and local institutions address all the challenges of water-system management — monitoring, operation and maintenance, and capital replacement. We train and incubate water and sanitation businesses so that the private sector is another arm to providing infrastructure support. And for each of our regions, we make a commitment to monitor our work well into the future, not counting any project as truly sustainable until it has lasted to the 10-year mark.
Given the sheer size of the global water and sanitation problem, Water For People understands that we cannot tackle this problem alone, but we can have a global impact through influence by helping to shape the standards and practices of the developing world — and you can be part of this! Please join us for WFP's Blues Bash at WEFTEC 2013 in Chicago on Oct. 7, or visit www.waterforpeople.org and show your support!

Philadelphia Phillies – Awards: Home Runs Champs.
During the team's 126-year existance as a member of the National League, the Phils would have a lot more success producing home runs hitters than they would have producing batting champs. Eight Phils would win a total of twenty-eight home runs titles, including five titles that would be shared with another National Leaguer.
The first Phillie home run champ would be Hall of Famer Sam Thompson, who would win the title in 1889 when he would hit 20 home runs. The second Phil to win the title would be Hall of Famer Ed Delahanty, who would win the crown in 1893 when he would hit 19 roundtrippers. Thompson would win the third Phillie home run title, his second as a Phil, in 1895 when he would hit 18 homers that year. The following year, 1896, would see Delahanty regain the title as he would end the season being tied with Billy Joyce, who would spend the season playing for both the Washington Nationals (II) and the New York Giants (now the San Francisco Giants), with both men hitting 13 home runs. The next Phil to win the home run title would be Gavvy Cravath, who would run off a string of home runs crowns in the 1910s, winning the title outright in 1913, 1914, 1915, 1918 and 1919, and tying with Dave Robertson of the Giants in 1917, as he would hit 19 ('13 and '14), 24 ('15), 12 ('17), 8 ('18) and 12 ('19) home runs respectively. The next Phillie player to win the crown (title no. eleven) would be Cy Williams, who would will the title in 1920 by hitting 15 homers. He would win his second home run title as a Phil, the twelfth title for the Phillies organization, in 1923, when he would hit 41 home runs. In 1927, he would win his third Phillie title, and the fourth in his career as he had won one in 1916 as a Chicago Cubs, as he ended the season tied with Hack Wilson of the Cubs, with both men knocking out 30 roundtrippers. Hall of Famer Chuck Klein would become the fifth Phil (winning title no. fourteen) to win the home run title as he would hit 43 home runs in 1929. Two years later, in 1931, Klein would regain the crown, as he would hit 31 balls out of National League ballparks. He would win the title again in 1932, as he would be tied with Mel Ott of the Giants, with both players knocking out 38 home runs. In 1933, the year when he would win the triple crown, Klein would lead the NL in home runs with 28, winning the organization's seventeenth home run title. It would then be forty-one years before another Phil would win the home run crown. When it finally occurred, it would be done by Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt, becoming the sixth Phil to win the crown, as he would win the title outright in 1974, 1975, 1976, 1980, 1981, 1983 and 1986 and would be tied with Dale Murphy of the Atlanta Braves in 1984, as he would hit 36 ('74), 38 ('75 and '76), 48 ('80), 31 ('81), 40 ('83), 36 ('84) and 37 ('86) home runs, while helping to lead the organization to its first World Series title in 1980. The seventh Phillie home run champ, as he would win home run crown number twenty-sixth for the club, would be Jim Thome, as he would knock out 47 home runs in 2003. The eighth Phil to win the title would do so three years later, as Ryan Howard would knock out 58 home runs, the present Phillies' team record for home runs hit in a season, in 2006. In 2008, Howard would capture his second home runs title, the twenty-eighth one to be won in the organization's long existance, as he hit 48 home runs, as he helped lead the Phils to their second World Series Championship.
Oh the eight Phils to win the home run title, all but one (Jim Thome) have won the title at least twice, with Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt winning it the most times, doing it eight times in the seventies and eighties, followed by Gavvy Cravath, who would do it six times in the teens. Four of the Phils to win the title (Sam Thompson, Ed Delahanty, Chuck Klein and Mike Schmidt) are now in the Hall of Fame. Ryan Howard has hit the most home runs as a Phils' home run champ when he knocked out 58 dingers in 2006, while Gavvy Cravath has hit the least when he hit only 8 homers back in 1918. The Phils have won four home runs titles in the 19th Century, twenty-one in the 20th and three, so far, in the 21st.
Who would be the next Phil to win the title? More than likely Ryan Howard will do it again sometime during the next few years.

You're welcome. Just decided to leave A-Rod alone since everyone else was already beating up on that dead horse.
Nice blog. Wow, the fact that Ryan should be the guy to beat in 2009 again only proves how valuable he is the the Philadelphia Phillies again taking the NL East and marching back long into the playoffs.
I have watched him hit in B P during the Spring, and the guy can truly launch the ball with the best of them. You want him to have a super human year to truly separate himself from the pack and viewed in the same breath as Albert Pujols. I actually think he is a pound-for-pound better hitter than Mr. A P

Thanks. If he can have at least a decent start this season, as in stay away from the junk (pitches) or at least learn to hit them, as well as figure out a good way to defeat the (Cy or Ted) Williams shift teams are using against him, he should be the person to beat as far as the long ball is concerned. He is one of the most, if not the most valuable player on the Phils right now, and if he has a hot, or at least decent, start out of the box this April, the Phils will be hard to beat when 'hitting season' comes around this summer. And yes, it is a thrill to watch him launch one out of the ballpark once he gets the meat of his bat upon a thrown baseball. Well, I won't say that he's better than Al, until he can get his average back up, and as I'd said earlier, lay off the junk thrown to him by opposing pitchers.
I think beyond a doubt it's going to be Howard again. As pitchers are seeing him more and more the scouting reports are pretty solid and only a mistake or Howard using his power to pull something close is gonna be going out. That doesn't mean he won't get a lot of homers but I'm not sure he'll see the 60 mark or beyond but he should still win the title.
I have to agree with you there. As for him reaching 60, he might be able to do it, as long as opposing managers don't repeat what they did late in the season in 2006, start walking him when he come up with men in scoring position so that he won't be able to kill them late in games. But even with that, he's a threat to hit the ball out anywhere in the park, even to the opposite field, thus making him a very dangerous batter. Now, if he would just fix his fielding. I'm getting tired of that leaky glove.

I posted over a week ago (if you've been there and done that please help!) and was started to have progress in night weaning my 21 month old dd.
We co-sleep and instead of nursing on the bed, we'd nurse on the couch a few minutes, I'd take her to the bed and she'd fall asleep.
We went from 4-5 night wakings to 2 - and I was thrilled.
However, the past 2 nights have been unbearable - and I can tell she's getting a cold and teething at the same time - but I'm so frustrated about the constant nursing and trouble getting back to sleep that it's giving me extreme anxiety. I can't nurse her like this anymore. I think she understands that I'm so upset - but I want to keep my cool. I feel awful.
Any suggestions? Have any of you ever gotten this desperate? We are both ending up in tears and it really freaks her out to see me crying. I feel like I've done wrong by her by making her so dependant on me for falling asleep! This can't be the way to go.
I'm pregnant - and really don't think that like this I'll be able to tandem nurse. What can I do?????????
