Key Term Definitions
: The main box where all the internal / external routing and configurations take place within a telephone system. The cabinet can be referred to as "Central Office", "Central Unit" and or "Base."
CTI (computer telephony integration):
This is an optional set of applications that will allow you to integrate your telephone system with your computer. These applications include one-click dialing, video conferencing, incoming call routing and more.
With extensions an office can run several devices, such as fax machines and modems, off just one dedicated phone line.
A phone that is hybrid is a mix between key systems and PBX systems. Over the years the differences between these 2 types have dwindled and so the benefits of both have been combined – the term hybrid signifies the grouping.
Key Systems:
Designed for small office environments, a key telephone system can support up to 40 employees. They cost less than PBX systems, but offer many of the same features as well as features that are catered to small offices applications.
This refers to the number of telephone lines coming into your business telephone system. Lines are also known as trunks.
PBX (private branch exchange):
A PBX system is designed for offices with 40 or more employees. These systems are very flexible and can be customized to your specific office needs. The investment is greater than with key systems, but the extensive PBX upgrade options allow you to easily extend the life of your system.
The number of ports dictates how many connections a phone system can handle, a term most commonly associated with PBX. This includes total number of incoming lines and extensions available.
VoIP (voice over internet protocol):
Unlike regular telephones that utilize landlines, a VoIP phone requires high speed internet connection to make and receive calls. VoIP phones connect directly to IP networks via wired Ethernet or Wi-Fi. This is a popular application for businesses that make long distance / international calls frequently.

Crockpot (or Stovetop) Anasazi Bean and Cabbage Soup
A few years ago I was visiting the Ferry Building Farmer's Market in San Francisco and was excited to find that Rancho Gordo Beans sold heirloom Anasazi Beans, and I've been buying them ever since. I love the slightly sweet flavor of Anasazi Beans, and when I taught Utah history in fourth grade I used to cook them for the students when we had our Anasazi Feast at school.
This Crockpot (or Stovetop) Anasazi Bean and Cabbage Soup is one of my favorite ways to cook these delicious dried beans. Unfortunately they lose much of the delightful speckled look when they're cooked, but they still taste great. If you don't have Anasazi beans, no worries, just make the soup with any kind of dried bean.
(Crockpot or Stovetop Anasazi Bean and Cabbage Soup was updated December 2010)
Chop one cup each of finely chopped onion, carrot, and celery, and add to the crockpot.
Add 2 cups of very finely chopped green cabbage to crockpot.
Anasazi Bean and Cabbage Soup
(Makes about 8 servings; recipe created by Kalyn.)
I'd recommend a 5 Quart Slow Cooker for this recipe.
1 pound dried Anasazi Beans, soaked overnight in crockpot
1 cup diced celery
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup diced onion
2 cups very finely chopped cabbage
2 cups ham, cut into small dice
ham rind if available
(remove for the last few hours of cooking time)
8 cups water (you can also use partly ham stock if you have it)
2 T dried parsley
1-2 T garlic powder
2-3 tsp. onion powder
2-3 bay leaves
fresh ground black pepper to taste
ham flavored concentrate or ham bouillon (optional but good)
balsamic vinegar for serving, optional

Lets get this thing going as soon as possible.
Lets hold off until the mid-season lull, but definitely before the playoff push. All-Star Weekend?
I am interested in continuing the PD Forum Awards, just not during the season. Lets count 2011 as a lost year and pick it up again this summer.
I have little or no interest in continuing the PD Forum Awards.
None of these choices works for me; see my thoughts below.
LG33 picks all the names out of his where's waldo beanie.
I have been here awhile and I couldn't tell you how it works.. I reckon its like the BCS..
Ah, its much more complex than I could have imagined. Leaves room for the old "bent corner envelope" trick
Last edited by The Sleeze; 01-06-2012 at 06:07 PM.
I think there's a thread for nominations, and then subsequent threads for each award where there's a voting between those nominated.
Are you suggesting PD's Awards are a farce?
No, its alluding to the draft lottery where the Pacers got screwed by the Knicks and their "bent corner" envelope.......it was a reach I know.
Not your fault, but PD might not be properly educating newcomers in regards to some classic PD moments.
Since this is awards-related, I'll bring back a little treasured piece of PD's history. The first five pages of this thread will make you question your desire to continue living and will seem like, if not the biggest waste of time and energy, somewhere awfully close. Once you reach post #133, however, I think you'll feel adequately rewarded.
"Awards a farce?" - http://www.pacersdigest.com/showthread.php?t=12242
pacergod2 for best avatar.
To answer some questions:
The PD Forum Awards have been handed out to the most distinguished members of the Pacers Digest community since 2004 - posters who have inspired us to believe, made us laugh, educated us on the game, and helped us cope with setbacks. Also, JayRedd and atc have won.
All registered members of the forum are responsible for choosing our nominees. This may be done through public acclamation or through private message to the organizers. The list of the nominees are then subject to another forum-wide vote to determine the winner. (In other words, cdash's summary is correct.) Nominating or voting for one's self is not encouraged, but campaigning for one's self is certainly part of the fun - at least in my personal opinion.
Of course, the categories will be further defined if there is enough support for the Forum Awards to be held. Thanks for your interest and participation!
Obviously, this is a joke. I pick the names out of my Carmen Sandiego-style red fedora.
Here's a quick history of the awards. Three-time winners in gold.
This table only includes awards that have been presented at least four times (in PD's seven year history of awards). Please advise on errors of all types, and excuse the shoddiness of my MS Paint skills.
FYI, Pacers_Gurl goes by Kim317 or something similar to that now.
Good chart.
I propose we add a "Best Avatar Award", and I nominate Gummy for it.
Ahhh...indytoad. Forgot about that guy. He'd put any "darksiders" to shame.
Bump. Please vote!
I'd like to see at least 50 votes before I take any further action.
50 ??
well i only vote you know when !
So Long And Thanks For All The Fish.
If you've done 6 impossible things today?
Then why not have Breakfast at Milliways!
I nominate myself for the "Irrelevant Poster Who's Been Here Forever And Never Once Won An Award" Award.
There are two types of quarterbacks in the league: Those whom over time, the league figures out ... and those who figure out the league.
The voting will begin for the 7th Annual Pacers Digest Forum Awards on Wednesday, February 22nd, following our game against the Charlotte Bobcats. A general nominations thread will appear roughly two weeks prior, but any nominations, suggestions, comments or complaints may be sent my way via PM at anytime!

If you've done 6 impossible things today?
Then why not have Breakfast at Milliways!
I didn't forget it. I was going to announce it last minute in order to allow you more time to grump it up without the pressure of an awards race. Plus, look how grumpy you are that I left it out. Mission accomplished I would say.
Also, I'm leaning towards reducing the amount of awards.
Anyone find it interesting that Seth has won Best Debater (most argumentative) since he came on board.

For acute back pain, use an ice pack at the site of pain, anywhere between the site of pain and the brain, or on the side opposite the pain. Because of the gating mechanism in the central nervous system, intense cold at any of these locations may beat a pain message to the brain. An ice pack may even be applied to the back of the woman's neck for the duration of a contraction.

3) News Flashes
A study of 199 pairs of twins evaluated the effect of delivery interval on the outcome of the second twin. All twins in the study weighed greater than 1,500 grams and were at or beyond 34 weeks gestation, and the first twin was delivered vaginally. Neonatal data evaluated included the five-minute Apgar score and evidence of birth trauma.
Time intervals between the births of each twin were divided into four categories: 15 or less minutes, 16 to 30 minutes, 31 to 60 minutes, and greater than 60 minutes. An interval of greater than 60 minutes between twin deliveries did not have an adverse effect on outcome, as judged by Apgar score, length of stay in the hospital, or birth trauma.
Researchers concluded that a prolonged delivery interval between twins did not have an adverse effect on the outcome of the second twin.

6) Twins: Some Things to Consider
Many of the factors that place multiple pregnancies at risk may be virtually eliminated when the mother is adequately nourished, and this means "eating for three." The mother of twins is more at risk of developing preeclampsia due to the added stress upon her body. Yet, based on many years of experience with women of all risk categories, I am convinced this condition need never develop when adequate amounts of protein are consumed. Other conditions such as anemia, varicosities, placental insufficiency, prematurity, hemorrhage, uterine dysfunction and uterine atony are all hallmarks of a multiple gestation which are to be expected, according to obstetric literature. I believe, however, that these conditions may be completely preventable as well.
Why do so many multiple births happen prematurely? The medical theory is that multiple pregnancy not only causes added stress on the maternal system but that over-distention of the uterus causes premature contractions and labor. If that is so, why do so many very large babies (over 9 pounds) often go to term, or are even overdue? I sincerely believe most twins are born prematurely because they are suffering from starvation in utero, and come out early so that they can be fed!
Several important considerations should be noted when anticipating a twin delivery. These include: the mother's commitment to her nutrition and general health; the type of twins (fraternal, monozygotic, etc.); the placental attachment site; the position of the babies and their growth and development. It must be noted that monozygotic twins have a greater likelihood of having fetal anomalies and are at risk for developing twin-to-twin transfusion. For this reason, I strongly advise clients to have at least three ultrasound exams during the course of the pregnancy.
The first should be done at the time the multiple gestation is suspected or diagnosed. In my experience, this is usually between 16 and 20 weeks. At this time, the gestational age and the type of twins expected are most easily diagnosed. Hopefully, even if only one placenta is seen (it is possible that two placentas have fused early in pregnancy), individual amniotic sacs will be identified. If both babies are within one amniotic sac, the delivery risk is very high, as the babies, and most important their umbilical cords, may become entangled.
The second ultrasound should be done at about 30 weeks, so results can be compared with the first scans. At this time, problems such as intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) may be diagnosed in one or both babies due to placental insufficiency. Or, any life-threatening anomalies in one or both babies can be identified so that preparations and plans can be made as to mode and place of delivery. An ultrasound at this time may also detect a discrepancy in size and estimated gestational age, which is possible when there is a separate conception date (rare) for the babies.
Also at the 30-week mark, if twin-to-twin transfusion is taking place, the babies will be remarkably dissimilar in size and weight, and the mother should be referred for high risk care. In this case, the babies will be monitored closely and delivered as soon as they have reached sufficient maturity.
Interestingly, the baby most at risk is the larger one who has received a surplus of blood. This baby must be handled very delicately as its internal organs have been stressed. Often, the suffused baby will require one or more exchange transfusions to first reduce and then to supplant red blood cells. The smaller, anemic baby can simply be given extra blood.
It is wise to have at least one more ultrasound done as close to term as possible in order to verify the babies' presentation and position. Even with the most experienced hands, this information is often difficult to assess as there are so many parts to feel!
- Valerie El Halta, Twins: A Very Special Occurrence, Midwifery Today Issue 39
7) Briefs
Occasionally the placenta and membranes of the first twin are delivered before the second baby is born. Excessive bleeding may occur from the placental site and the placenta of the second twin may also begin to separate. The second sac of membranes should be ruptured immediately and the baby and placenta delivered as quickly as possible. The uterus should then contract and bleeding be controlled.
- Mayes' Midwifery, Betty Sweet Ed., Balliere Tindall, 1997
Research has shown that women who are expecting twins can have a VBAC as easily as women expecting one child without added risks, including uterine rupture.
- Diana Korte, The VBAC Companion, Harvard Common Press, 1997
The obstetrical tendency toward weight and salt restriction has made many multiple pregnancies a nightmare of complications, and most doctors view them as high risk. The fact that typical bio-technical medical management results in a toxemia rate of 50% in twin pregnancies and 75% in triplet pregnancies is ample proof of the nutritional neglect=hypovolemia=toxemia etiology.... Cervical cerclage and labor suppressing drugs may be recommended along with bed rest, weight restriction, and cesarean section. Predictably, this results in low birth weight, premature babies as well as a higher incidence of abruption and hemorrhage in mothers.
- Anne Frye, Understanding Diagnostic Tests in the Childbearing Year, Labrys Press, 1997
Immediate postpartum: Watch for signs of shock! Treat prophylactically: keep mother supine and elevate lower extremities. Keep mother and babies warm. Offer sweetened fruit juice or other high fructose beverages, as tolerated.
Be prepared to stay with mother and baby for at least 12 hours postpartum. It may take babies somewhat longer than normal to stabilize. Mother needs to be watched for any signs of postpartum eclampsia, which is more common after twins due to rapid changes in circulation, excessive fluid retention, etc. There is more necessity for immediate diuresis, yet kidney function is slower.

8) Switchboard
I am a 32 year old African American woman pregnant with my first baby. I am 5 months and have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I have been put on a special diet. If my glucose levels do not stabilize, I will not be able to continue my pregnancy with the midwifery practice. I'll have to be transferred to the doctors who will administer insulin. I do not want this to happen. I have been very strict about the diet, but would like to know if there are any herbal recommendations that would assist my diet and lifestyle changes. I read up on bitter melon and fenugreek herbal supplements, but found warnings against taking them during pregnancy. Please help. I only have two weeks to make this change.

To Karen van Loon [Issue 41]: No, in the Netherlands we don't have doulas; usually women in labour cope very well with just the husband there. When I visit, I assess the woman and her progress. Then, after discussing when I will be back and explaining how I can be contacted if I am needed before the agreed time, I leave them. Generally, this works as a boost for the morale: the mere fact that I expect them to cope on their own increases their self-confidence. But if a woman is apprehensive or needs a lot of support, I stay and simply wait it out.
- Eveline Arends
In response to Sheila Snow [Issue 41]: While Emergen-C is, indeed, a great electrolyte booster, the high content of vitamin C can cause excessive bleeding after birth, surgery, dental work, or other "bleeding potential" event. High doses of vitamin C can promote anti-coagulence. Caution should be exercised when employing this powder during labor. Dr. Andrew Weil (Spontaneous Healing) cautions against high doses of vitamin C before surgery. While childbirth isn't surgery, one bleeds naturally. Since we are all concerned that mothers do not bleed more than necessary, the use of regular strength "Emergen-C" during childbirth is *not* a good idea. Diluting it in twice or three times the water called for in the package directions may be a more appropriate solution than using it full strength. This dilution would then reduce the total Vitamin C intake accordingly.
For a better option, try this:

I have been informed by a consultant paediatrican that it is commonplace to give complementary nasal gastric or oral gastric feed to infants of breastfeeding mothers in the first days of life until milk is established. Is this true? I would have thought this untrue unless there was a medical reason to do so. Surely complementary feeds will delay the breastmilk coming through.
- Gabrielle Flynn
I want to find more information on suturing tears versus not suturing 2nd degree straight tears that meet up. Are there any studies on long term effects on vaginal tone, rectocele, sexual comfort, length of time of healing? I was taught to suture everything 2nd degree but have recently been questioning this practice when a woman has a straight 2nd degree tear and she could follow through on the instructions to religiously keep her legs together in addition with a sprinkle of comfrey root powder to increase healing.
- Beckie Wood, CPM
We are just leaving Zimbabwe, having spent a month traveling 4000 km around the country. In between safaris, national parks and Victoria Falls I've visited a few rural clinics and met midwives and mothers--one in labour who had a Hb of 4.6 g/dl--nothing unusual in many of the poorer areas apparently. Women work hard here; they carry water from the bore hole, and firewood from the forest, grind the corn, cook, feed the animals, wash and look after the kids, all with a baby strapped on their back and none of the household appliances we take for granted.
I'm sure the men do something but it seems to me they spend a lot of time sitting around watching the women! Despite this, women also make sure they have fun.
On a visit to meet traditional midwives with Dr. Sibanda from Common Knowledge, we were greeted by them singing and dancing a welcome, and our conversation was punctuated by much laughter and clapping. We might do some things differently--I haven't ever tried dried donkey placenta during a difficult labour, for example, but what was exhilarating for me was the many similarities. One midwife picked up her empty cola bottle to demonstrate how she gets a woman to blow into it to help deliver the placenta--exactly what my independent midwife in London suggested during my second child's birth at home.
So thank you and goodbye to all the midwives and women I've met here. My admiration and respect go out to you all. We're off to Nepal and our next adventure. Watch this space!

9) Why I Want to be a Doula
I have been interested in midwifery for some time. My father had three daughters and dreamed that one of us would become a midwife. After having a homebirth, my interest deepened. Following my second homebirth I began studying with my midwife.
My third baby was due December 24th but I fully anticipated that he would be early as my other two had been. I went into labor a week early. On the way to my home my midwife had a wreck in the snow. After a couple of hours, labor stopped. I felt responsible for her accident. A week later I called her again and she stayed with me for over 24 hours while I went in and out of labor. The next day labor quit again and everyone packed up, including my family. I have never felt so alone in my entire life and I have lived alone in a foreign country for three years.
An hour later my father called to see how I was doing and I started to cry. My parents then came to pick me up and I went to see another midwife at a clinic. She looked at me and asked "Are you sure you are not in labor?" Not wanting to be immediately sent to the nearest hospital, I declined to answer. When I left her office I called my homebirth midwife and asked her to come back and break the water as the baby had moved down to +/- one station. Within two hours I went from 4 cm. to holding my son, who weighed 9 1/4 pounds!
Because of that experience I am interested in finding out more on how to become a certified doula. I want to be there for other moms so they don't have to go through what I experienced. If anyone has information on how to become one I would be glad to hear from you.

MAX WARSH: BILDER Runs Through Feb 24 at Toomer Labzda Gallery
Toomer Labzda presents Max Warsh's first solo show in New York. The exhibition title, BILDER-German for "pictures"- speaks to Warsh's interest in the dialogue between framing and building images. It will beon view through February 24, 2013.
Warsh's recent series of photo-based works look at the repetitive language of architectural facades through a process of photographing, collecting, cutting, painting and rebuilding. Bold painted shapes emerge amidst densely patterned brick or tile, forming a visual syntax derived from the psychological experience of moving through a city.
Additionally, conveyor belts removed from the flows of production, hang motionless in the gallery. These readymades share a common vocabulary with warsh's photographic work and his reinterpretation of systems of ornamentation and construction.
Where are you from / Where's your studio? New York City / Ridgewood, Queens
What do you use most often in your studio? I always have a big jug of book-binding glue in the center of my studio. it holds everything together.
What is your favorite part of the creative process? Most of my work starts by wandering around in unfamiliar places and neighborhoods. Or by walking down the same street over and over again and seeing something that's been right in front of me but I might have missed. So, walking would have to be my favorite part.
What is your earliest memory of art? I can't recall any specific early encounter with art, but do remember sitting through many poetry readings as a child-my parents are both poets. then, a little later, but still early on, I remember becoming interested in graffiti. I was never any kind of serious graffiti writer, but some friends were, and i was just interested in that type of mark-making.
How did you start working in your current medium? For a while, i've been trying to combine photographic space with painted space. in some ways, this was out of a desire to negate the photograph. but now, I try to work with photographic material as fluidly as paint, and the painted moments develop as a result of that process.
What was the last exhibition you saw? I just saw the rosemarie trockel show at the new museum for the second time. this was one of the most generous shows I've seen in a while, and it was even better the second time.
Is there an artist you've always wanted to grab drinks with? Definitely Gordon Matta-Clark. his engagement with architecture and the city has influenced me heavily since I first saw his drawings at PS1 in 1998, and I'd love to talk with him about "anarchitecture".
If money was no object, what artwork would you acquire? I've always been obsessed with Turner's landscapes, especially the stormy seascapes, I could live with one of those.
Is there one thing you wish you could do? Stop time.
Born in Henniker, New Hampshire and raised in New York City, Max Warsh received a BA from Sarah Lawrence College in 2002 and an MFA from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2004. He has exhibited his work in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Austin, including recently at Shoot the Lobster, New York and SOFA in Austin, Texas. He is co-founder of the artist-run gallery Regina Rex, Queens.
Toomer Labzda is located at 100a Forsyth Street between Grand and Broome streets in the Lower East Side of New York. Gallery hours are Thursday - Sunday, 11am - 6pm and Wednesday by appointment only. The nearest subway stops are Grand Street on the B/D lines and Delancey Street on the F/J/M/Z lines.

A United Nations Award-winning humanitarian, the Gyalwang Drukpa is committed to using Buddhist practices to help people who feel lost or uncertain. Based on ancient Buddhist teaching, but framed to be useful in today's world, he has written a book titled Everyday Enlightenment. It teaches readers that change is inevitable, that slowing down is the key to seeing clearly, and the importance of enjoying life's journey.
Please contact Matt Rich at 212.404.4444 or [email protected] for official schedule, interviews or photo ops with The Drukpa while he is here.
This is quite skilful on Mr Rich's part: the book is promoted, the visit is promoted, all in a news release that was picked up on the cables. I hope it brought people to the event.
That said, this is the first I've heard of a Buddhist master using professional PR people to spread the word and manage the image. I'm sure it exists elsewhere. Is anyone familiar with this phenomenon, if it is one? Any insights on how it may work, how it may be beneficial or harmful or...?
(usually it's local practitioners and sangha members who do the legwork in organizing an event and publicizing it, from what I've seen...)

Produce up to 10 lights and "drop" them into the bag. When the bag appears to be full of red lights, just blow on the bag- the lights all go out! The bag even looks empty before and after!
Though meant for use with D'Lites, the bag can certainly be used as a trick on its own. Pretend to pick something out of the air, and when you drop it into the bag, it lights up! Like a firefly!This is perfect for plays and theatrical productions!
The Bag O'Lites is made with RED lights. It can be used with any size D'Lite gimmick or by itself.
And that's all you need!D'Lite Light From Fingertips gimmick is NOT included.
Add a little realism to this effect by making the paper bag "pop" as you drop the lights into it. Hold the top of the bag between your thumb and your middle finger. Now snap your finger- the bag will make a popping noise. Very effective!
You can use any bag you want. When your bag gets worn, just use another. Small lunch size bags can be purchased in any supermarket.

Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Crème Reviews
My favorite hair product!I received a free sample of this product with an online Sephora order. PROS: This product makes your hair nice and shiny! Pleasant scent. Product lasts awhile b/c you don't need very much. Does not weigh hair down as much as serums that I've tried (Tigi Dream Drops and Paul Mitchell Skinny Serum). My hair is less frizzy! My hair seems slightly healthier? CONS: Doesn't dramatically how dry your hai...read morer really is though. Blowouts do not last as long w/this product for me. Overall, a good product that I might buy again! (Paul Mitchell Super Skinny serum is at least $5 cheaper Fekkai Glossing Cream, but for how long either product lasts, $5 either way isn't bad!). — 4 years, 7 months agoLipglossandSpandex | 521 reviews

- How to Read a Study Record
Neuropsychiatric symptoms form part of the clinical picture of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias. Irrespective of the severity of the disease, the most frequently encountered symptom is apathy. Apathy is increasingly diagnosed in patients with neurological and psychiatric conditions. Apathy is a disorder of motivation, defined as "the direction, intensity and persistence of goal-directed behaviour". Most of the current descriptions acknowledge this point and consider apathy in terms of a lack of goal-directed behaviour, cognition or emotion. The classical neuropsychiatric symptom assessments are subjective structured interview-based, using input from the caregiver and/or the patient. New technologies are likely to provide us with a more objective measure. An example is ambulatory actigraphy, consisting of a piezoelectric accelerometer designed to record arm movement in three dimensions.
The aim of the present study is to assess using actigraphy and video recording signal, AD patients with (n = 15) and without (n = 15) apathy and control subjects (n = 5) during an activity of daily living scenario .

First for the good news. Here are the starbaby names which we consider to have found the right combination of originality, charm and substance this year:
CLEMENTINE —Ethan Hawke & Ryan Shawhughes
Full name Clementine Jane Hawke projects the image of a sweet but strong, prim but pretty heroine of a Victorian novel, and brings to mind the song lyric 'Oh my darlin' (never mind that her shoes were #9). It was previously the starbaby selection of Cybill Shepherd and Claudia Schiffer.
HONOR — Jessica Alba & Cash Warren
We applaud this choice that moves beyond the more common Puritan Virtue names like Grace, Hope, and Faith to one that projects an even more righteous image, but has rarely been heard in this country. An honorable decision.
KNOX & VIVIENNE —Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt
The award for best twin names of the year goes to the always inventive but never quite over-the-top serial baby namers, the Jolie-Pitts. Knox continued their tradition of boys' names ending in 'X' (as in Maddox and Pax), and also has family connections to Brad's grandfather, as does Vivienne's middle name, Marcheline, that of Angelina's mother. Runner-up twin names: Coldplay drummer Will Champion's lively Juno & Rex.
In the name garden overgrown with Roses and Lillies, Violets and Daisies, it seems fitting that the granddaughter of the late iconoclastic comedian Richard Pryor would have a more exotic flower name. With its languorous feel, the lotus holds intriguing significance in several cultures.
SUNDAY—Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban
An unusual but sunny day-of-the-week name, inspired by an Australian artist's patron named Sunday Reed, it's in tune with other current calendar names like January, May, June and August, as well as the seasonal Winter and Summer. Some people did think it strange that Sunday was born on a Monday.
And now for what we judge to be this year's losers:
BRONX MOWGLI —Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz
Poor little Bronx got nothing but Bronx cheers when his name was released, especially as paired with the name of the Disneyfied Jungle Book boy. If his parents thought this New York borough name would catch on the way Brooklyn has, they're in for a big disappointment.
BUSTER —Michele Hicks & Jonny Lee Miller
Is he a bulldog? Is he a prizefighter? No, he's a baby, whose rambunctuous name will not do much to encourage his sensitive side. An example of the alarming trend towards giving doggy names (Lucky, Princess) to babies.
It could just as well be Cadence Klover, within the paradigm of using the initial letters C and K interchangeably, leading to regrettable innovations like Kasey, Kassidy, Karolyn and Kaleb. Fortunately, the trend seems to be waning.
Taking Max–which already means "the greatest"–to the max. INXS, we'd say.
PEANUT—Ingo Rademacher
The General Hospital star explained that this had been the nickname they used "when he was in mommy." OK, good luck explaining that to him when he's six feet tall and applying to Princeton.
We'd love to hear your nominations for the best and worst celebrity choices of the year, and won't be surprised if you have very different opinions. Let's hear from you lovers of Harlow and defenders of Kadence!

NEW YORK -- Tim Tebow might be the nicest player ever to turn into a coach-killer.
You'd expect him to have a streak of viciousness, or at least a good heaping of narcissism. But he doesn't seem to have a disingenuous bone in body. He has the class of Wayne Gretzky, the cool deportment of Derek Jeter, the manners and kindness of R.A Dickey. In so many ways, the New York sports bubble is far better for having Tebow inside of it.
As John Elway once noted, if he ever had to pick a husband for his daughter, Tebow would be the guy. But after that utterance Elway must have wiped the sweat from his brow, because seconds later he traded Tebow from the Denver Broncos, and Tebow became someone else's problem.
When history shines a light on these New York Jets -- and my, won't the cockroaches scurry -- for the moment it appears the defining angle will revolve around how Tebow, the near-perfect man and a so-so backup quarterback, ushered in the downfall of coach Rex Ryan.
Perhaps general manager Mike Tannenbaum will also be fired, and possibly Tony Sparano, the first year offensive coordinator whose plodding, psychotic play-calling lowlights the team's 3-6 record. Sleuths won't find Tebow's fingerprints, though he would be permanently linked to their departure.
Of course, the Jets could do what they swear they won't and finally go all in with Tebow. Expect New York to secede from the union before that transpires.
But wouldn't it be delicious if Ryan and his coaches ignored their inner fears and egos and devised a game plan that revolved around Tebow this Sunday? It wouldn't completely stun St. Louis, but it would put the Rams on their heels and possible ignite a furnace under the Jets. The Broncos did something similar with Tebow last season and look at how that worked out. Opponents still wonder what mystical force hit them late in those games.
However the fantasy spins, the Jets could still win out the string, make the playoffs and rip up the pink slips. Stranger things have happened. Tebow once threw an 80-yard touchdown pass on the first play in overtime, in the playoffs, but that's about as relevant around here as Joe Namath's panty hose.
It's impossible to say this without screaming, so here goes: WHATEVER BEFALLS RYAN ET AL IS NOT TEBOW'S FAULT. That's for the hard-of-hearing wingnuts who believe Tebow's sweat can inspire world peace. But it's also impossible to discuss anyone's fate without noting that Tebow is tangled deep within this reptilian drama.
For those watching from, say, a recliner on Mars, this must seem ludicrous. Used sparingly in the Wildcat, Tebow has barely made a dent as the understudy of the beleaguered Mark Sanchez, who in another lifetime did some fantastic things in the AFC playoffs. Tebow has completed five of six passes for 40 yards and no touchdowns in nine games. He's rushed for another 92 yards and has been super duper on punt protection.
Why, Ryan practically gushes when he speaks of Tebow as the personal protector. The Jets are getting single flyers outside! They've got the highest net punting per average in ages! What a success, this punt team with Tebow the protector! And have you seen how hard he works?
If the questions aren't about Tebow, the answers still make a serpentine stroll in his direction. Owner Woody Johnson had to know he was enticing a whole new coterie of carny barkers and dung scoopers to the big top when he traded for Tebow. There even was this precious idea that Tebow would help curb the player unrest that permeated the locker room last season, when Ryan admitted he lost the pulse of his team.
Now, in the wake of anonymous players slamming Tebow in the New York Daily News –- he's a "terrible" quarterback, said one defensive starter – Ryan calls those who won't put their names to their thoughts "cowardly." He's right about that: some of these Jets could beat any sixth-grade class when it comes to spit balling and backstabbing.
From his perch as a SiriusXM radio host, LaDainian Tomlinson drew on his two years with the Jets to reveal who he feels are the obvious culprits. According to Tomlinson, he believes cornerback Antonio Cromartie is the guy who labeled Tebow "terrible" and linebacker Bart Scott is the player who claimed the Wildcat "won't work" with the backup quarterback.
Cromartie, always quick with the quip, on Wednesday turned up the volume on his personal stereo system and pretended not to notice the fuss. Scott growled a denial. Sanchez, suddenly the most popular person in the locker room, earnestly said: "I feel for Tim, that sucks, it just sucks."
And it does. Tebow couldn't be faulted if he were to punt a few helmets, but instead he told reporters, with an almost otherworldly optimism, "I try to be the best teammate I can and work as hard as I can to get better every single day. Honestly, I feel like I have a great relationship with all these guys in the locker room."
He did admit to feeling "some frustration and I guess some sadness," but wouldn't speculate on the who or why. He could be starting in Jacksonville by now but instead preferred New York. It's brought him plenty of sponsorship deals and diversified his fandom, and certainly there are plenty who resent him for being one of the Jonas Brothers of football. In a Sporting News player poll released last week, Tebow was voted the league's most overrated player by a significant margin.
If Ryan, Tannenbaum and/or Sparano lose their jobs, their handling of the Tebow situation from the get-go will be slice-and-diced as severely as any failed political campaign. Way back in training camp, Ryan boasted that this was his most talented team ever. He also mystified the Wildcat, as if the Jets were planning to reinvent gridiron. Tebow, Ryan promised, would get 20 snaps or so, but that number has dwindled to around 10 percent of the team's total despite Sanchez' inability to connect with any receiver in the red zone.
The Jets lost Darrelle Revis and Santonio Holmes to season-ending injuries, and Sanchez hasn't many weapons at his disposal. Under normal circumstances, those factors might even be job-savers. There is one daring way out of this jam, a shot the Jets could take that might soften the freefall, but don't count on it.
Despite the fans' desperate caterwauling for Tebow to start, Ryan gives no appearance of relenting. Even the owner appeared to be hiding under the covers on this one until he emerged Thursday to speak with beat reporters. He seemed curiously determined to wash his hands of any ulterior motive associated with bringing in Tebow.
"You guys have been accusing me of this phony story of being more concerned with PSLs or cash or something else," Johnson said. "My job one, two and three is to win games. That's why I got into football to begin with. It's to win games. It's not to sell PSLs or anything else. My job is to win games. That's what my passion is. That's what I want to do. That's why I'm spending all this time in this organization. It's not to sell PSLs or to sell hot dogs."
Johnson once thought Brett Favre was the answer, so he does have a history of chasing shining objects. The owner wasn't even crossing his fingers behind his back when he claimed his role in bringing Tebow aboard wasn't any different from all other acquisitions that came before. The final decision rested with Ryan and Tannenbaum, insisted Johnson. He also said he thought the unnamed criticism of Tebow might bring the players closer together, and that Sanchez was indeed a franchise quarterback.
Upon hearing that, tens of thousands of Jets fans ripped up their Mark Gastineau posters and threatened to move to Texas.
That the background and the status of the backup QB is the raging theme circling the drain of a bad 3-6 team says it all. Everyone's pointing fingers at Tebow, who's never been given a chance to recreate the magic he spun in Denver, or to fail spectacularly. It must be extraordinarily difficult to keep smiling while everyone slings dung, while knowing his mere presence might cost people their jobs, but somehow Tebow grits through it.
The Jets really don't deserve him.

This marks the fourth year food bloggers have celebrated Julia Child's August 15 birthday by cooking one of her recipes, and after seeing Julie and Julia last week, this birthday celebration seems even more fun. I got down my only Julia Child cookbook and searched for something that could possibly be made South Beach Diet friendly, and this recipe for pureed white beans with garlic and basil was the winner!
It surprised me to see that the recipe from a book published in 1970 included tahini paste (which Julia called "sesame seed paste") so if you made this with garbanzo beans you could probably get away with calling it Julia Child's hummus. I used white beans and increased the amount of basil a little, and ate it with whole grain Flatout flatbread, wishing I was in Paris sharing the plate with Julia and Paul.
Julia Child's White Bean Hummus with Garlic and Herbs
(Makes about 2 cups, recipe slightly adapted from my only Julia Child Cookbook - From Julia Child's Kitchen.)
1 can white beans (recipe says garbanzo beans or black beans can also be used)
20 leaves fresh basil
1 1/2 T fresh lemon juice (or more)
1/4 cup Tahini paste (or less, if you're not sure how much you like tahini)
2 tsp. minced garlic (or more)
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
2 T olive oil (plus more for drizzling on top if desired)
chopped parsley for garnish, optional (could also garnish with other herbs)

A's target Labor Day return from DL for Lowrie
ANAHEIM -- Barring any setbacks in a two-game rehab stint with Triple-A Sacramento this weekend, A's shortstop Jed Lowrie is expected to be activated from the disabled list for Monday's home matinee with the Mariners.
Lowrie, who has been on the DL since Aug. 14 with a fractured right index finger, parted ways with the A's in Anaheim on Friday and is slated to play seven innings with the River Cats on Saturday and nine on Sunday.
His imminent return is significant for several reasons.
"He's a key part of our club, a two-way shortstop guy that's an everyday player for us, a switch-hitter who's a run producer," said manager Bob Melvin. "You've seen that over the last couple of years. So there are certain guys that you miss more so than others, he is one of those guys that's an important cog for us, so it'll be nice to get him back."
Andy Parrino has provided stellar defense for the A's in Lowrie's stead, but his bat is lacking in production. And Eric Sogard, who has been playing shortstop against lefties without Lowrie, is better defensively suited at second base.

How often would you change a church bulletin cover or bulletin look?
– Mark :: South Carolina
It really depends on each church's resources and the cultures of the church leadership, the congregation, and the people they are called to reach.
Personally, I think bulletins are a waste of money, so I recommend trying to get rid of them altogether or condensing them to 3.5″x7″ cardstock with announcements on one side and contact info/prayer card/visitor card on the other side.
However, for a variety of reasons that is not an option for most churches. Here are some ideas for you to mix and match:
- Custom Everything Bulletin per Series ($$$$)
Some churches have gorgeous tri-fold or quad-fold church bulletins designed weekly by designers who win ADDYs. The front cover features a custom graphic that changes with each series. The bulletin layout and dimensions change every few months. Special event graphics inside are custom designed. And each week's announcements are carefully limited in length and placed to create a look as seamless as a brochure. The cardstock is premium and that value is noticeable to the touch. The visitor card is on an inside perforated flap, and there is a place for notes. Sometimes the church splurges to get a special embossing, spot varnish, or foil stamping on the cover. The printer is the best local shop. This approach while aesthetically marvelous costs about $1 per bulletin printing if ordering gigachurch quantities, and that does not include the cost for the graphic designers and copywriters.
- Custom Bulletin Template per Series ($$$)
A more affordable custom approach is to custom design the church bulletin cover for each sermon series and then print the weekly announcements on the inside. The frequency of a designing and printing a new cover design with every sermon series will still be costly, but the bulk printing of the bulletin template will help cut costs. Be aware, however, that bulletin templates can often make the announcements look more awkwardly pieced in than seamlessly stitched.
- Premade Free Bulletin Template per Series ($$)
A handful of websites offer free downloadable sermon series graphics. Sometimes these design packages come with bulletin templates. Either way you may very well still have to rework the file to make it work for your church's needs. This is a great solution for cutting graphic design and printing costs, but the value is really in how you approach it.
- Pre-printed Paid Bulletin Template ($$)
While not versatile in customization, pre-printed bulletin templates have been a popular choice among small churches. They streamline production costs and are easy to use. However, be careful; there are a lot of ugly preprinted bulletin templates that do more harm than good.
- Custom Bulletin Template per Season ($)
Custom design the church bulletin to reflect your church brand rather than a sermon series, and you can bulk print a year's worth of bulletin shells at a great rate. Use the money you saved to build a well.
- Custom Card per Series ($$)
Most bulletins quickly end up in the garbage, so consider streamlining your announcements into a simple sheet of cardstock front and back. The front can feature the sermon series graphics or a sermon outline, and the back can have the announcements. With a high quality printer and a good paper cutter, you can print these in-house with three 3.5″x7″ bulletins to each page.
- Custom Card per Year ($)
Ditch the tri-fold and the sermon series graphics, and use a single sheet of cardstock to list announcements on one side. Use the other side to feature church information, a prayer request card, or a visitor card. You can professionally bulk print a year's worth of the church information side.
- Projection Screen Videos ($$)
Videos take time to create but can be a fast and fun way to make announcements. These can get pricey if too many paid staff members get involved. However, it will still likely be cheaper than most printed solutions. Don't be boring, cheesy, awkward, or embarrassing. There is an art to good videos. Check out Whitney George and Gary Hornstein's insights if you want to do church announcement videos well.
- Projection Screen Slides ($)
Photoshop. JPEG. Done.
- Church Website & Blog (-)
If you have a good church website, this is incredibly fast, easy, effective (for reaching core members), and low cost.
- Facebook & Twitter (-)
The best place to reach people is where they spend their time. 1 in every 7 minutes spent online is spent on Facebook. Use social media.
- Lobby Chalkboard Easel (-)
Find a good calligrapher or fine arts illustrator in your church, and you can have some of the coolest and low cost church announcements around.
- Lobby Interchangeable Poster ($)
Design a large poster for each week's announcements, print it at Kinko's, and then place it in a prominent place like where people enter the auditorium.
These are just a few ideas. Mix and match them.

If you're not watching ABC's Modern Family, you're missing out on one of the best TV comedies of the last decade. Of course, critics and fans agree as the show's earned the Emmy Award for "Best Comedy Series" three years running and it shows little sign of slowing down.
For those not watching, the series follows the day-to-day lives of three generations of the Pritchett's, a "modern family" in ever sense of the word: Grandpa Jay (Ed O'Neill) is a divorcee who's remarried the much younger (and sexy) Gloria (Sofia Vergara), mother to tweenage son Manny (Rico Rodriguez). Of course, Jay's children from his original marriage are now grown and have families of their own. There's Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson), Jay's only son, whose family is made up of his partner Cam (Eric Stonestreet) and their adopted pre-school daughter Lily and there's Claire (Julie Bowen), Jay's only daughter, whose family includes husband Phil (Ty Burrell), college-bound Haley (Sarah Hyland), high schooler Alex (Ariel Winter), and middle schooler Luke (Nolan Gould). Together, the three families form what could truly be considered a "modern" expanded family, to include everything from multiple generations, various ethnic backgrounds, different sexual orientations, and even various educational levels and professions. Though this extended family's interactions with one another and the both serious and hilarious situations they put themselves into, America watches weekly with enthusiasm and anticipation.
What's truly impressive about the show is the consistent quality, which is no doubt thanks to the brilliant cast and series' creators/producers/writers Steven Levitan and Christopher Lloyd. Both Levitan and Lloyd, who're known for their previous work on Fraiser and Wings, make every episode family-centric, with plenty of humor, drama, and even some sadness from time to time. But never does the show lose its emphasis on the importance of family and the connection that binds each and every one of the family members to one another. This makes the show impressive as any show with this many main characters could very easily loose sight of individual characters' development, style, or personality. Of course, this never happens here and the natural growth of each character brilliantly unfolds week to week, ensuring viewers tune in to watch what happens next.
Season 3 of Modern Family continues in this vein, with the characters continuing to develop their unique personalities all while the family continues to develop as well. The best episodes of each season tend to be those focused on the family at home living their seemingly mundane day-to-day lives. Likewise, the less stellar episodes in the season tend to be those told away from home. Season 3 here is no different as the best episodes being "When Good Kids Go Bad," which follows Cam and Mitchell's daughter Lily rebelling against the idea of her parents adopting another child; "Treehouse," which finds Gloria giving Jay an ultimatum, Cam trying to hit on hot women, Phil attempting to build his son Luke a treehouse, and Luke getting a new "old" friend (in neighbor Walt, played perfectly by Philip Baker Hall); and "Aunt Mommy," which finds Claire volunteering to donate an egg for Mitch and Cam's next child which leads to dramatic and hilarious results.
Throughout the season, it's the every day drama and ridiculousness that brings to light the best of each character's personalities. There's no doubt each character's personality provides a glimpse of reality and most people who watch Modern Family will relate to one or more of the characters as they experience life through the eyes of this unique, funny, and loving family.
These 24 episodes, spread over three discs, include a gorgeous picture in 1080p and solid audio thanks to the 5.1 DTS Master Audio. The discs also include a variety of extras, including interviews with cast members, deleted scenes from various episodes, and a gag reel that's fun and entertaining. While there's really nothing that stands out in the bonus features, they're no doubt an appreciated addition for die-hard fans who love to watch more Modern Family and get a glimpse behind-the-scenes of their favorite show.
Overall, Modern Family - The Complete Third Season is crammed full of great humor, interesting and well-developed characters, and exciting drama that'll keep you glued to the TV for hours on end. While we all might not have a modern family - and some of us may not even have even a decent family - it's still fun to watch this series and its characters grow and become more a part our households.
Modern Family - The Complete Third Season is available now on blu-ray and DVD wherever fine home video is sold.
