today's chat:
Bostondotcom: Hey folks, thanks for stopping by to talk Pats-Colts... Ron is online and will be answering the first question in a minute ...
kruzy: Prior to the chargers game all the analysts were talking about how important the run would be...in order to open up things for brady...but dillon/maroney had little impact on the game...how much do u think the run will be used against the colts...given the colts recent defensive
perfomances wouldnt it be wise to open up things with three receiver set??
Ron_Borges: I belive they will run the ball and do it effectively. Certainly the Colts' run defense is improved when Bob Sanders is in at safety and the move to put Rob Morris, a former middle linebacker, at outside backer has given them a firmer edge but their basic run defense problems remain. I would attack them off play action, as they have in the past, using Maroney because of his quickness.
Anthony-DC: Ron, I've heard in two places now (profootballweekly and a NY paper) that Belichick's contract runs out after next year, and that he may leave the team for the NY Giant's. Please tell me this is an unfounded rumor and that Kraft will sign him to an extension this offseason!
Ron_Borges: His contract has a year to go plus a club option which may or may not be exercised. The possibility of his leaving for New York is a reasonable one although certainly not set in stone. If you are a coach knowing when to leave is often as important as knowing when to arrive. belichick learned exit strategy from Bill Parcells, who always seemed to know when to abandon ship.
Chris: Ron -- A question about special teams. A lot of talk about the special teams match up between the Colts and Pats centers naturally around Viniateri v. Gostowski (i.e. "Is the rookie up to the challange"). Don't the Pats have an opportunity, however, in the very important aspect of field position? Pats kick and punt coverage is average, but Colts kick and punt coverage is amongst the worst. With Maroney and Hobbs in a sterile dome environment, this could be an advantage for the Pats. Also, Saurbrun in this environment could be a factor given his most recent performance in San Diego. Thoughts?
Ron_Borges: I think Saurbrun is indeed a strong weapon. He has been kicking well in the playoffs while Hunter Smith's best days seem to be behind him. Both teams have had problems in coverage this year so I'm not sure there's a big advantage there for either team but I would give the edge to New England because you're right, their return men are more explosive than Wilkins.
indpatsfan: will chad jackson have a role in indy?
Ron_Borges: Only at dinner.
Little_Polian: Hi Ron, I don't believe the Colts defense is really as good as they've shown the past 2 games and I think the Patriots can run the ball well and score often. I also think the Colts will pass the ball well against the Patriots secondary. Do you agree that this will be a high scoring game?
Ron_Borges: I assume you're not related to Big Polian? I do think the Colts' defense has benefited the past two weeks by facing a one-dimensional offense in Kansas City and a less than explosive one in Baltimore. That will not be the case with the Patriots even though Brady has not been playing up to par himself. I could certainly visualize a high scoring game if Manning gets decent protection and New England can make use of its play action runs off of early passing success.
sbcpats70: Hey Ron, do you think people are overlooking how much better this Patriots offense is than Indy's previous 2 playoff foes?
Ron_Borges: I don't think they're overlooking it. There is no question that Indy is a different defense when Bob Sanders is at safety. he is there Harrison, as he proved in the November game with the Patriots in which he made 11 tackles and had an inteception. He played in only four regular season games all year but is back at reasonable health for the post-season and playing well. He makes a difference but he's not Lawrence Taylor. Which is why, in the end, i think you'll see the Colts struggle more defensively this week than in the previous two games.
hoey: Ron, Daragh from Dublin, Ireland here. Aside from Tom Brady, which Patriot do you see having the biggest impact on sunday's game?
Ron_Borges: Lawrence Maroney and Corey O'Dillon, two fine Irish running backs. I just think New England will hurt the Colts with the pass first and then begin to chop at them with the runs. If maroney has not hit the rookie wall (he's played the quivalent of about two college seasons this year) he could be the most dangerous player on their team in this game.
Little_Polian: It was reported by Mike Reiss yesterday that Ty Warren missed the media access portion of practice, yet his name is not on the injury report. What's the story with him?
Ron_Borges: Excused for personal reasons. Some sort of minor family issue that will not impact the game.
Armani: Last week everyone assumed that Brady just had an off day; however, one time he got tackled and the sweat band he wears on his elbow was pulled down revealing a tendinitis brace that old tennis players wear. Knowing how guarded the Pats are about injuries, isn't it possible that he is hurting a lot more than they are letting on?
Ron_Borges: It's probably likely. He has been wearing that for a while and has had prior elbow problems so it certainly seems more than likely he is playing in some pain. Either that or he's making a rather odd style statement.
lquintin: Ron, Stokely has been a go to guy on third with him not playing helps the Patriots do you concur?
Ron_Borges: Certainly their passing game is at its best with three receivers that include a speed man in the slot. But Manning has made better use of his tight end this year than he has in the past and Dallas Clark has become a solid possession receiver. Stokley certainly gave them that third deep threat but they seem to ahve adjusted their passing game to his absence.
Fred_Smerlas: Will I ever get elected to the Hall of Fame? Why are nose tackles discriminated against?
Ron_Borges: Who is Fred Smerlas? The first nose tackle to go into the Hall, if there ever is one, will be Curly Culp of the Kansas City Chiefs. Then Larry, Moe or even Fred might get a chance.
johnnydoyle: Ron, is time running out for Manning to get it done and how much patience will the fans of Indy have for this guy when he fails again on Sunday to bring the Colts to the Super Bowl?
Ron_Borges: He'll be 31 in March so he has a good five years or so more to play at or near his peak. They appear to have gotten a running back to replace Edgerrin James in Joseph Addai but they do have to concern themselves with Marvin Harrison going to be 35 next August and Wayne approaching 30. The window is not closed but the screens are on and if he isn't careful it could all pass him by. As for the fans, he's the second greatest QB in Colts history behind Johnny Unitas. Regardless of whether or not he wins a Super Bowl, that will not be forgotten in Indy the way it might be in the Northeast.
jason: how much will Belichick use the Baltimore game to help slow down Peyton?
Ron_Borges: I don't think he needs much help from Rex Ryan. Or Brian Billick for that matter. Different teams. Different personnel. Different approaches.
Texas_Red_Sox_Fan: Ron ... Can our linebackers plug the holes against Adai he ran well against us last time
Ron_Borges: The LBs will have their hands full with Addai. he is quick, powerful and has good vision. He's no LaDainian Tomlinson but he's quicker than the version of Edgerrin James who played in Indy the past few years. I believe the Colts will attack Bruschi inside and Banta-Cain on teh outside in much the same way San Diego targeted the two of them.
Samurai_Worrier: Being from Boston, I'm not used to being the "overdog" in this situation as many people are picking the Pats, but I still have to worry. As the Sox saw enough of Mariano Rivera to finally handle him, could the Colts now have a bead on the Pats or is football strategizing such that we can still unwrap some new twists and turns to keep them guessing like the "old days?"
Ron_Borges: I think there is a limit to how many strategical manuvers one can make. The familiarity between the two teams adds to that problem. Both know each other so well that I think this will be more a battle of matchups more than of strategy.
MonteeBiesel: Hi Ron, I'm on my lunchbreak since I dont play ILB for the Pats. My question is do you think Marvin Harrison is wimpy? It seemed he only got his game going when Rodney Harrison got hurt in the last game he played the Patriots. I don't think he would be spiking any balls with #37 out there. BTW, that was a good one-liner last week about Matt Light coming out of the huddle with a shotgun.
Ron_Borges: Marvin Harrison has played 11 years in the NFL, caught over 1,000 passes and s cored 122 touchdowns so wimp is not a word I'd associate with him.
toomyc: Which rookie RB do you think will have a better game this weekend? Addai or Maroney?
Ron_Borges: Maroney. It would be Addai if he was running against the Colts run defense.
toomyc: What did you think of Polians comments this week? He sounds like a sore loser and a whiner to me, if the Colts can't win, then lets change the rules to allow the Colts to win.
Ron_Borges: Polian may indeed be a whiner but he's not asking that the rules be changed. he's asking that the rules be enforced. As a law-and-order kind of guy myself, I don't have a problem with that as long as they are applied equally for both teams.
TruePatriot: Last week you suggested that I probably should double-up on my blood pressure meds while watching the Chargers game. I took your advice but fell asleep in the middle of the fourth quarter. Did I miss anything?
Ron_Borges: You did but a heart attack might have been one of those things so you showed good judgment. Double down this week. You may be asleep by halftime but you can always TIVo the game.
PatsLoyalFan: Ron, how funny is it that the "revamped" Colts defense is getting all this respect when the Patriots really have the revamped players in their wr's and safeties. Can you remember an AFC title game team ever playing four career backups and all four are doing so well, i mean the wr's are leading tha playoffs! Can they do it again?
Ron_Borges: Probably not. Look, Brady makes every receiver better but I look at New England's wide receivers the same way I look at the Colts suddenly resurgent run defense. Skeptically. Generally, as the old boxing trainer Cus D'Amato said, "Guys born round don't die square.''
MonteeBiesel: Ron, have you ever witnessed Bill Polian taking a mental fit in the pressbox? The guy sounds like a real piece of work.
Ron_Borges: I have. Very few men have a face that can turn so red so fast as Bill Polian. He makes Al Davis seem diplomatic.
johnny_ace: thanks for joining us today ron, i was just wondering if you share my concerns thatsince the colts didn't peak in november this year for a change, this could very well be their year to go all the way. hope not.
Ron_Borges: I do think the Colts are coming from a differnet place this time. In the past they were the hot team with the big offense. This year they seem, like the Patriots, to have come into this under the radar and that may have helped them mentally. Certainly I would think they understand this opportunity is not going to keep coming along much more often.
OBie: Is this a resurgent Colts D or are the a product of a one dimensional offense (Chiefs) and a weak offense (Ravens)?
Ron_Borges: Probably a little of both.
kelley: do you think it will come down to coaching in this game?
Ron_Borges: No.
pats42colts0: all the national sports shows say that home field advantage gives the colts an advantage. But have people forgetten that Brady is 11-0 in dome stadiums? I know, "it helps Dwight Freeney", but did you see what Matt Light did to Merriman last week? Your thoughts?
Ron_Borges: I think the Dome definitely helps the Colts because they believe that it does. Certainly it helps Freeney. As for Matt Light, if you watched the game closely the Chargers inexplicably had Merriman dropping into pas scoverage 36 per cent of the time. Tony Dungy will not make that mistake with Freeney, who will be attacked by Light and a tight end in much the same way New England went after Merriman. As for why merriman was in coverage, it beats me. And it helped beat the Chargers, as well.
Cogz: Harrison at practice? Means he's playing right? Its not like he needs work on understanding the defense.
Ron_Borges: Harrison is O-U-T out.
MileHigh_Patsfan: Hello Ron. What has Peyton struggled with the past few games, and how can the Pats duplicate it?
Ron_Borges: Against the Ravens he strugglef because they're one of the best defenses in the league. vs. KC he completed 78.9 per cent of his passes. Now he did throw three picks but two were to Ty Law who seems to be attatched to his passes like velcro. I wouldn't be relying on Peyton Manning throwing 3 picks to win on Sunday, a point Mike Vrabel just made to me an hour ago in the locker room.
MonteeBiesel: Hey Ron, I just heard on the radio that Rodney Harrison was INDEED out on the practice field today. Do you think Marvin Harrison will be wetting his pants when he hears this?
Ron_Borges: No I don't. Bob Kraft as out on the practice field too and he's not playing either.
McMonkey: We always hear how the regular season means nothing once "the tournament" starts, however on both sides of the ball Indy is almost opposite what they were all year, and the Pats have certainly played differently (better) at WR and O-line, and had an off-game at D-line against SD. So which changes are the flukes, and which should we expect to see Sunday?
Ron_Borges: I think in general you can count on New England's front three to be solid and the Colts' front four to be less so, although they'll be better than they were during the year against the run. I would expect both Brady and Manning to play more like they did all year andless like they did the past two weekends because they are two great players. An off day or two is one thing. An off playoffs a bit more unlikely.
McMonkey: What's your pick for the Saints/Bears game? Who would you rather see win?
Ron_Borges: Sentimentally I like the Saints for all going to the Super Bowl will mean to that city, which remains devastated in so many areas. I visited there last fall and it was still beyond comprehension. But the Bears' secondary and that Chicago wind will be hard on the aptly named Drew Brees. Unless Deuce McAllister and REggie Bush run wild, I like the Bears in a close victory.
McMonkey: Is there a danger of a let-down game for either team after big road wins against higher seeded teams?
Ron_Borges: No. Both sides know what this game means.
frozenRope: Will D. Freeney be lined up against M. Light and does this create a Jason Taylor type mismatch, and perhaps we can ask the question regardless of whom Freeney lines up against? Or is Feeney simply not the Feeney of last year?
Ron_Borges: Freeney is the kind of speed rusher Light struggles with. He is still a force to be reckoned with. I would imagine he learned a few things about how New England may attack him by watching tape of last week's game vs. the Chargers and Merriman. It's not a matchup I like.
jerome: Ron, I always enjoy your articles. Though it's been a while since they played..Manning still owned the Pats DB's. Why would this time be any differnt? Also, E. Hobbs is becoming a real bore. For someone who hasn't done much he yaps alot.
Ron_Borges: Ellis believes boldness counts and he sees boldness as cockiness. Whatever works for you. I agree that the secondary matchup is not good for New England both from a eprsonnel standpoint and because the stricter enforcement of the chuck rule and interference has forced New England to get away from its press coverages that worked so well in '03 and '04. They are now forced to play more in space and that's an advantage for Harrison, Wayne and Clark.
Rocky: If the unthinkable happened and Brady was injured, who would go in first, Cassel or Testeverde?
Ron_Borges: That's a good question and an unthinkable notion. I would think it would be Cassel because if they put in testeverde he would have to play the rest of the game because they activated the third quarterback. That would limit their options too much, I would think.
Foxborojack: Do you think our offense has suffered since Charlie Weiss departed?
Ron_Borges: A bit on game day. Weis made excellant game day adjustments and was good at calling a game, setting up plays late in a game by things he did much earlier.
rogi: Speaking of Bruschi, he hasn't made a big play in a long time. He's certainly due. Do you think Bruschi's time is about up?
Ron_Borges: I think Tedy Bruschi has had a remarkable career in New England. I also think it's winding down. He has not been the same player since the stroke, which is to be expected. Just that he's out there making any plays is a testimoney to his perseverance.
hoops77: When I was in Vegas a few months back, I got the Pats at 9-1 to win the Bowl. How do you like my chances? I want to buy a nice big-screen plasma with my winnings.
Ron_Borges: They didn't build those big casinos by letting guys buy plasma TVs at their expense. Like every bet in Vegas, it's a longshot. But not as long as it was a month ago. Good odds at 9-1 but only if you cash.
Pats_Rule: Ron, would you agree that Bill Belichick is a little less guarded with the media compared to the first few years as a head coach with the Patriots? It seems he is a little more ?human? in recent years during his press conferences. What is the media?s perception?
Ron_Borges: That's like telling your neighbors you replaced a rotweiler with a dobermam pincher. Friendlier breed on the surface but still more bite than you'd like.
iloveron: if the patriots win their 4th superbowl in 6 years would you consider them the greatest dynasty in football history considering the roll free agency plays now?
Ron_Borges: Greatest of all-time might be stretching it but they'd have to be in every ocnversation thta included the Browns of the '50s, Packers of the '60s Steelers of the '70s, Cowboys of hte '90s and 49ers of the '80s. to be fair, the Browns of the '50s were probably the greatest dyansty in pro football history.
Pats_Fan_in_Albany: Ron, In my opinion a big factor will be whether the Pats can apply pressure on Peyton up the middle, where he is most effective. Your thoughts on their ability in this area?
Ron_Borges: That's a good point. Seymour, Wilfork and whomever else they put inside do need to push the pocket. Manning likes to step up and step into his throws and giving him little room to do that is a good way to defend him. It forces him to move more than he likes and creates problems for him looking downfield.
HighFalutin: Hey Ron. What are the chances BB is concocting a special field-goal-blocking play for this Sunday?
Ron_Borges: I would say not too likely.
Bostondotcom: Thanks for stopping by folks, we'll have the transcript live in a moment.

ROB Hopkins will miss Dave Turner's forthright views and passion for the sport – qualities which ingratiated him across the local non-league community.
The New College manager found himself in the opposite dugout to the former Shrivenham and Wootton Bassett boss on many occasions as their paths crossed regularly in the Hellenic League, and he was always struck by Turner's enthusiasm for the sport.
Following the 52-year-old's tragic death in the early hours of Tuesday morning, Hopkins told the Advertiser how much he enjoyed Turner's company and the football discussions that came with it.
"I'm still in a bit of shock. I think I'm along with probably everybody in the non-league community who's at a bit of a loss. It's one of those weird things," he said.
"I had plenty of dealings with Dave as an opposition player and an opposition manager. I never had the chance to work with him but I always had a good relationship with Dave in the sense we always had a bit of a crack and a bit of banter across the dugouts.
"He was always forthright in his opinions, he would always say it as he saw it and you had to respect him for that. He was one of those people who would be 100 per cent honest in everything he saw.
"If he thought he'd been outplayed and his team were poor he'd say it, if he thought his team deserved to win he'd say it, but he always did it in a way where you had immense respect for him. It was just the way he was.
"He'd always be happy to talk about football, not just his own team. He was always interested in other players and how other sides were getting on. He was a genuine good, all-round, local football bloke.
"There are a few managers who would say he didn't get on with him well, but they all respect how he dealt with himself and how he was.
"It's a big kick to deal with, it's one you're not expecting. He was still very young. It's a big shock but looking at twitter a lot of people are saying a lot of nice stuff and that's probably the measure of how people thought about him.
"People seem to be saying he'll be a big loss and I tend to agree with them."


text: At approximately 9:30 p.m. on March 1, 2002, a Penn State graduate assistant entered what should have been an empty football locker room. He was surprised to hear the showers running and noises he thought sounded like sexual activity, according to a Pennsylvania grand jury "finding of fact" released Saturday. When he looked in the shower he saw what he estimated to be a 10-year-old boy, hands pressed up against the wall, "being subjected to anal intercourse," by Jerry Sandusky, then 58 and Penn State's former defensive coordinator. The grad assistant said both the boy and the coach saw him before he fled to his office where, distraught and stunned, the grad assistant telephoned his father, who instructed his son to flee the building. Full Story below http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/news?slug=dw-wetzel_penn_state_child_sex_case_110511 Thsi is one of the most disturbing stories I have ever seen.

And then you make the most of what you can control.
So here is Mullen, a sophomore cornerback listed as the backup to Antonio Marshall for the seventh straight week. The five straight starts to open the season are a fading memory.
No matter. For the former Bishop Luers standout, it's all about Saturday's Bucket game at Purdue.
"This is a big rivalry game," he says. "We're playing for a trophy, so we're definitely motivated for that. We have to have our best week of practice, prepare, watch film and come out ready to play."
Mullen remains ready despite diminished playing time. He is second on the team with four pass breakups, and eighth with 33 tackles. He's played in 10 games.
"You've got to stay motivated, keep motivating your teammates, helping those guys out as much as possible," he says. "Be on alert whenever you're needed. That's what I'm doing now — being positive and helping my teammates."
The Hoosiers are 4-7, which is three more victories than last year. Purdue is 5-6 and needs a victory to become bowl eligible for the second straight season.
Ending the Boilers' bowl hopes, Mullen says, is not part of the motivation.
"We're not focusing on their postseason success, whatever that might be," he says. "We are focused on winning and bringing the Bucket back to Indiana."
The teams have split the last two meetings. The Hoosiers won in 2010 at Ross-Ade Stadium, lost last year at Memorial Stadium.
Rivalry runs deep. This is the 88th meeting for the Bucket, the 115th meeting overall. Purdue leads in the Bucket series (57-27-3) and the overall series (71-37-6). IU is 21-37-5 at Ross-Ade Stadium.
"It's definitely an emotional game," Mullen says. "We're both playing for something far bigger than just this game. We're playing for our schools. We're a state school and we want to bring the Bucket back."
IU faces a Purdue team that has won two straight after opening Big Ten play with five straight losses.
"We have to stop the run," Mullen says. "We have to play the pass well. They have pretty good receivers, pretty good quarterbacks, accurate quarterbacks. We have to stop that passing attack, stop the run and get the ball back to our offense."
As a former Bishop Luers Knight, Mullen is well aware Luers is gunning for its fourth straight state title. The Knights (10-4) play Indianapolis Ritter (14-0) Friday night at Indianapolis' Lucas Oil Stadium. He will be with the Hoosiers and won't be able to make the game, but he will be following it given his younger brother, Kendrick, is a Luers standout.
"It's definitely a happy feeling for me coming from that program," he says. "It's a good program. They do the right things. I wish those guys luck and hope they bring home the four-peat."

Even after losing out on Jarome Iginla at the eleventh hour, the Boston Bruins didn't give up on adding a big-name winger at the NHL trade deadline. Early Tuesday afternoon, Bruins acquired Jaromir Jagr from the Dallas Stars for prospect Cody Payne, farmhand Lane MacDermid and a conditional pick.
It's a coup for GM Peter Chiarelli and his team. The return for Jagr, a surefire Hall of Famer when his career ends, may looks underwhelming, but it's consistent with the price of other big-name players in a market with few buyers. The Bruins, along with the Montreal Canadiens and Pittsburgh Penguins, appear to be the only Stanley Cups contenders in the conference.
MORE: Dallas didn't get enough | Why Luongo-to-Leafs may be dead
Some analysis will focus on Jagr's acquisition as response to the Penguins loading up with Iginla and Brenden Morrow. What may go unrecognized is that, even at 41 years old, Jagr will likely be the best player traded in the 2013 season.
His pedigree speaks for itself—he is the No. 8 scorer in NHL history, after all—but more importantly, after returning to the league after a stint in Russia from 2008-2011, Jagr has shown that he can still be not only a productive scorer, but a dominant two-way player.
His 14 goals in 34 games this season looks good on the surface, but underlying in that is a player who is very good at driving possession through the neutral zone. Jagr had the highest Corsi number on the Flyers among forwards last season according to BehindtheNet.ca. Additionally, Jagr skated the puck into the zone with possession more than any other Flyer, according to work done by Eric Tulsky et. al as shown in a paper presented at this year's Sloan Sports Analytics Conference.
While shot differentials and zone entries aren't sexy bits of data that jump off the page, puck-possession is a higher-profile skill that contributes to winning hockey games. A few years ago it was impossible to quantify, but there are now a number of tools to do so, the first being shot differential statistics.
The Bruins, among the league's elite puck-possession squads, can probably fit Jagr into their roster better than they could Iginla or Morrow, as Jagr has still shown he can still positively affect his team's shot clock when he's on the ice. Even this season in Dallas, linemates Morrow and Jamie Benn were being out-shot and out-scored the instant Jagr was taken off the ice.
Jagr, unlike most other potential acquisitions, can slot in on a team's first or second lines. The Bruins are loaded at center, especially with two-way threat Patrice Bergeron on the first line and two-time 60-point man David Krejci on the second. Claude Julien has at times moved bottom-six players Rich Peverley and Daniel Paille into the top six. This gave him the opportunity to slide first-line winger Brad Marchand to the second line in an attempt to give the Bruins scoring where Milan Lucic has struggled to provide it.
So Jagr can't just produce; he can fit onto that top line with Bergeron and Tyler Seguin and provide elite-level goal-scoring without sacrificing anything on defense. It's rare that a player of his caliber is available at the trade deadline for so little. Bergeron, Seguin and Marchand are among the league leaders in Corsi this season, and adding Jagr likely won't affect that. That means Claude Julien has the option of using Jagr alongside countryman Krejci, or swapping Jagr for Marchand.
All told, while the Penguins loaded up last week with Morrow, Iginla and Douglas Murray, don't count the Bruins out of it. By the information available that looks at the underlying aspects of player performance, Boston probably landed the best player available.

Yoga isn't just a cult of Lululemon-wearing, downward dogging, hand standing, "OM" chanting yogis. The meditative practice establishes a deep mind/body connection which increases flexibility and sculpts a strong, toned physique.
But if you're a yoga newbie (and ever seen Eat Pray Love), the practice can be a bit intimidating. Don't worry, you don't have to quit your job and study at an ashram to reap the benefits of yoga. Heck you don't even have to own a yoga mat!
Park City, Utah-based yoga instructor Sarah Tomson Beyer (who also has a master's in physical therapy and founded the chic apparel line meSheeky!) developed Flowmotion® to appeal to non-traditional yogis and newbies alike.
"Flowmotion is a progressive approach to flow yoga, offering urban elements, the freedom to color outside the lines and a way to practice that serves the modern-day yogi," Sarah says. "With a bona fide knowledge base of the biomechanics and anatomy of the body, I am able to offer the creative style of yoga I love so much–in a safe, therapeutic environment. It is dynamic movement rooted in a legitimate foundation," Sarah says.
If you've been yoga-curious and don't know where to begin, Sarah shares these 4 simple, but effective poses that build strength and flexibility (while sculpting a hot bikini bod), yet are designed especially for yoga novices.
1. Yoga Squat
Squats are functional and therapeutic. They will open your hips, release your lower back and strengthen your hips, thighs, abdominals and spine.
1. Stand at the front of your mat with your feet the width of your mat. Make sure your feet are parallel, all ten toes facing forward.
2. Inhale your arms over your head. As you exhale, slowly bend your knees and lower your hips down into a squat.
3. Take your hands together at your heart and press your elbows into the inside of your knees. The leverage from your arms will help open your knees wider (pictured). With your knees over your ankles, try to let your hips be heavy.
4. Pull your belly in and up to support your hips and back. Have a tall spine; imagine you are leaning back against a wall. 5. Breathe here for 5-10 breaths.
5. Try to keep a straight spine and rise back up to standing. Repeat 3x
2. Side Lunge
A variation on a forward lunge; side lunging will strengthen your inner thighs, glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings and spine if performed repeatedly. If you hold the position, it will stretch your inner thighs, groin and hamstrings.
1. Stand on your mat facing the left with your feet about 3-4 feet apart. Bend into your left leg gently and lower your hands to your left thigh for balance.
2. Keep your right leg straight and your left heel on the floor. Lower your hips until they are the height of your left knee.
3. Once you are stable, you can reach your arms out to each side (pictured). If your left heel can stay in contact with the ground, lower closer to the floor. Breathe here for 5-10 breaths
4. Slowly shift to the other side. Repeat 3-5x
3. Downward Dog
A classic "home base" position that is used in many styles of yoga. Down Dog is also very effective for an all-in-one stretch; it opens your shoulders, back, hamstrings, calves and Achilles. It also builds very functional strength in your upper body; shoulders and spine extensor muscles, as well as your core and thighs.
1. Come into a plank position (like the "up" position of a push-up) on your mat to establish the proper distance for your hands and feet in Downward Dog. Have your hands shoulder width and your feet hip width. Stack your shoulders over the wrists.
2. With straight arms, push back to make an 'A' shape with your body (pictured).
3. On the exhale, press your chest towards your thighs, let your head drop towards the floor, press your sit bones up to where the ceiling meets the wall, and press your heels towards the floor.
4. Press the floor away with your hands so that all the weight does not sit in your wrists. If your heels do not touch, you may bend your knees. Try to keep a flat back. Breathe here for 10-15 breaths
4. Rolling
To build upper body and core strength, you can make the static Downward Dog position more dynamic by rolling in and out of the pose.
1. From Downward Dog; look up towards your belly button, lift your heels, press the floor away with your hands and round your back (pictured). Engage your core to round your back and support your spine.
2. Carry this motion forward towards a plank position.
3. Return back to Downward Dog and press your chest towards your thighs, sit bones up and heels down.
4. Roll forward and up on the inhale, press back on the exhale. Repeat 5-7x

It is most unusual for me that a movie lingers on, in my thoughts, emotions and musings, as "Goodbye Solo" did, into the second and third day. Clearly, its director, Ramin Bahrani, an Iranian-American who grew up in Winston-Salem, N.C., seems destined to become an important new filmmaker. His earlier two indie films, "Man Push Cart" and "Chop Shop," garnered some attention. But "Goodbye Solo" earned him unusual praise. Roger Ebert speculates that it might become a classic and says, "it is as pure as something by John Ford." A. O. Scott, in The New York Times, alludes to its "grace," noting, "I can't think of anything else to call the quality of exquisite attention, wry humor and wide awake intelligence that informs every frame of this almost perfect film."
The movie is about the promise and despair of life. It deals with the human desire to help those in need--and the equal desire, in some, not to be helped. It reminds us that we live in a sad yet beautiful world. The story deals with Solo (Souleymane Sy Savane) a gregarious and charming Sengalese cab driver in Winston-Salem, and an elderly man who wants Solo to drive him to Blowing Rock National Park so that he can commit suicide.
Watching the film I was reminded of an unusual homily preached by my friend Jan van Kilsdonk S.J., who was the pastor for university students in Amsterdam. Van Kilsdonk was presiding over a memorial service for a young man who committed suicide. He cited the line: "The almond blossoms no longer delight or smell sweet to me." Van Kilsdonk neither justified nor approved of the suicide of the young Dutch man. He simply wanted us to try to fathom better the human condition, to help us understand, perhaps, the world of lonely, haunted humans.
In the film, Solo first picks up William, the elderly man, to take him to a movie theater. William gives him an $100 advance to book a one-way trip to Blowing Rock in two weeks time. William is brilliantly played by 72-year-old Red West, a character actor who was also a schoolmate of Elvis Presley, a professional boxer and, then, Presley's bodyguard and chauffeur. At one point, West broke the foot of Presley's cousin who was smuggling narcotics to the singer and threatened to do more, if he ever tried to bring narcotics to Presley again. Surely, West saw closely, in his friend and confidante, the possibility of human destruction and loss of zest for life. With a craggy face and rheumy eyes, West portrays a life totally lived out. West and Savane, the two principals, are brilliantly cast and serve as perfect foils for each other.
Solo is funny, gregarious and full of ambition (he wants to become a flight attendant). Generous and compassionate, he tries to pull William back from the brink. He arranges to drive him to his almost daily excursions to a movie theater, where William seems fascinated by a young movie teller who, it seems, might be his grandson. He washes William's laundry and brings William to his own house to meet his pregnant wife and young step-daughter, Alex. At one point, he moves in with William in his motel. William seems moved by his companion's good spirits: he goes with Solo to a bar to play pool and develops a fondness for Solo's stepdaughter. Solo cajoles William to help him study for his examination to become a flight attendant.
Like Solo, we hope that William might find a sense of purpose. Even Solo, brimming with a passion for life and rebelling against the possibility of William's impending suicide, can occasionally understand the lonely, haunted man. Toward the end of the movie, as Solo prepares to drive William to Blowing Rock, he looks over a notebook William kept and can ascertain that, indeed, he was engaged with Solo in his study and with his stepdaughter Alex—but not enough, once again, to choose life. Reluctantly, Solo has to accept defeat and, in the end, honors William's quiet determination to terminate his life.
Visually, the film brilliantly conveys riding in a taxi, the weather-beaten neighborhoods of Winston-Salem and the daily struggles of the working class people in the film. Bahrani seems to be taken with outsider immigrants trying to fit into America, surely with some resonance to his own experience growing up, as an outsider Iranian, in black and white Winston-Salem. At one point in his career, Bahrani went to Iran for three years where, among other things, he seems to have been influenced by the great Iranian film director, Abbas Kiarostami. Indeed, some elements of "Goodbye Solo" seem inspired by Kiarostami's 1997 film, "Taste of Cherry." But "Goodbye Solo" is neither a re-make nor a riff on it.
When I waxed enthusiastic to a friend about seeing this movie, she said: "How can you be so rapturous about a film about a suicide?" But suicide is not what the film is about. Nor does one come away from the film feeling depressed—just the opposite. The goodness of Solo and his infectious curiosity, the beauty of the mountains of North Carolina in the fall, the meaningfulness of being a father in a flawed and economically perilous world—all win in the end. I suspect the film still haunts me because it speaks deeply to the human condition. It asks me to step back and ask what life is for and to look around and inquire how others make meaning and find sense in life. Perhaps, what was once said of Kiarostami, can be said of Bahrani: He "believes in beauty as he believes in Truth, not as a conclusion but as an undertaking." No Hollywood film has ever led me to consider how I might believe and try to live out the same thing. "Goodbye Solo" did.

OROVILLE — An investigation into what caused a major fire last Thanksgiving at the Ronald B. Robie Power Plant should be completed soon, according to a Department of Water Resources official.
Oroville Field Division Chief Pete Scheele said Tuesday that investigators have been inside to find out what caused the fire, and should have a report out sometime this month.
"The people that went in forensically are pretty much done with forensics inside the plant," he said.
The Ronald B. Robie Power Plant is a five-story structure west of Oroville that has one floor above ground and four floors below. It's part of the Oroville Dam complex and is a pump and generating facility.
Cleanup has been going on since late November.
The fire started around 7:30 a.m. on Nov. 22 in the second-floor control room, at the northwest corner of the building. It then spread down into the third floor.
The main floor, above ground, sustained heavy smoke damage. Floors below reportedly sustained significant damage from the flames.
Determining the cause of the blaze was delayed due to extreme hazards from debris and smoke.
Scheele indicated Tuesday much of the plant has been cleaned up, but that crews will continue to clear way for an assessment of damages and eventual construction.
He estimated cleanup should be completed by mid-May.
After that, "We have to figure out what we need to do, do an assessment of what equipment needs to be replaced and/or repaired," he said.
Once an assessment is done, DWR will begin procuring materials, equipment and labor.
Officials also have not finished estimating the cost of damages from the fire.
"Until we actually get in and take things apart, we won't know the total cost," he said. "It could be in the millions."

Category: baby name Pixie
This week, Appellation Mountain's Abby Sandel considers the subject of naming style as reflected in current newsy choices
Baby name style is a highly personal thing, and I'm always surprised by the names on birth announcements. Sure, I can guess with sometimes frightening accuracy what parents will have shortlisted for baby #2 or #3, but they've already showed their hand by then. Until they've hinted at what they're thinking of for their firstborn, baby name style is surprisingly tough to guess.
Over the summer, I met three siblings, all living in the same area, each with a daughter about the same age. The three girls' names could have easily belonged to sisters, even triplets: Annabelle, Georgia, and Phoebe. The women of the family clearly share the same general style – so much that I'd guess there must have been some consternation when they found out they were all expecting daughters within the same year.
For every situation where two former roommates both want to use Ethan James for their sons, there are plenty of cases where, no matter how much sisters or friends have in common, name style is simply not one of them. You roll your eyes when your BFF suggests Kestrel, only to hear your sis describe Eleanor as too old-fashioned.

I am working on the following website:
The navigation bar below the logo looks different on Firefox and other browser. I like the way it looks on Firefox and I want it to look the same on other browsers as well but I couldn't make it. Do you have any ideas?
guestboss.com doesn't connect. Is there another link?
Hi, it is not g, it is q.
Thanks, must be getting sleepy here. Will try again <smile>
I'm looking at Firefox and IE8. They look almost exactly the same. Could you be more specific about which browsers do not look right? and describe the differences that you see?
Please check it in Chrome, Safari or Opera and you will see the difference. The navigation buttons have the correct padding in Firefox, but not in Chrome or other browsers, including IE. In IE, top and bottom padding for the inner box are not displayed. I could have used images for buttons but I don't want to use images every time I can't fix some CSS3 stuff. I am using a list (ul) for the navbar, perhaps I should use divs?
OK, cutting edge CSS3 - there will be retro compatibility problems. Might be better if someone else offers help here. I actually thought the padding in IE8 was more consistent than Firefox. Oh, well.
I have looked at your site in Firefox 15.0.1, Chrome 13.0.782.112, Safari 5.0.3, Opera 12.02, Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.1872 and even Kindle Fire (via the Opera Mobile Emulator) on Windows XP.
All of these browsers show exactly the same layout with only a very minor difference in thickness to the borders in Opera. I don't think there is anything you can do about the way different graphics engines render borders.
Çok güzel olmuş! Hiç bir sorun yok.
UPDATE: Solved.
Thanks all for trying to help. I finally fixed this by changing the CSS slightly. The buttons look better now on all browsers.
Thanks for the followup, nayen. I looked at the link posted and it doesn' t look any different to me, but maybe it hasn't been updated, yet. I'm curious to learn how you fixed the buttons.
Best 2 U
You can see the current CSS code. What I changed is that I added "float: left" to "li" items and "display: block" to "li a" items in the navbar. That's pretty much it.

Pat expresses concern about allergens at parties, issues such as
using the same shot glass if there is drinking and shrimp are being
served. He suggests keeping your own shot glass. Gardner, meanwhile,
raises the issue of whether allergens are in an unlabeled bottle of
Gardner: You look at the back and you have no clue what's in it. It
gets your mind racing a bit.
Jason: Some of them are made from nuts, too – amaretto, for instance.
When you're our age, people will show up at parties with random
drinks that they've stolen from a parents' cabinet, and if you
started drinking before they did, you might not catch on that it's
amaretto or another [allergenic] one. At a party, a lot of people you don't
know are there. And if you're drunk, you won't have a chance to tell
them that you're allergic. If they bring in food, you might eat it
without thinking.
GS: How do you handle dating with allergies?
Gardner: Usually you just talk to them [a girl]; just give the basic
stuff but go into a little bit about cross-contamination. I'd just
pull her off to the side and ask if she knows about it. I know a
couple of girls who use Cheese Whiz with peanut butter all the time,
so I'd say – 'if you're having just Cheese Whiz in the morning and
you've had it with peanut butter before [from the same jar], that
could still contain a bit of it, and that's enough to kill me.' And
they sort of realize that.
GS: If you're going out with a girl, do you tell her upfront about
your allergies? If you're moving in for the first kiss, it's got to
be a little hard to say: 'oh by the way, what have you eaten?'
Gardner: Yeah, so do it at the beginning, and then just gently remind
them. Try not to dwell on it, would be the next point.
David: They [girls] usually know ahead of time – because I've burned
it into their heads. My girlfriend, when she was my girlfriend, she
abstained from eating peanuts, too. It's helpful.
Dylan: Everyone just really knows if they're that close to me.
Pat: Well, my girlfriend hates it [shrimp], anyway [laughs]. The only
time I was even close to shrimp was at a New Year's party once and
there was some shrimp there. So I just made sure my glass stayed away
so nobody touched it. I told everybody there.
Julia: Everyone who knows me for a while, knows that I'm allergic.
Milk is so common that they'll be eating something and ask if I want
some, and I'll say, 'no, because I'm allergic, and then we'll go into
this huge discussion about it. People really want to learn about it –
because I don't think they've heard about milk as an allergy, though
they all know about peanut.
GS: Peanuts and nuts can get stuck in teeth. If you're going to kiss
a guy, do you have to be as careful with dairy?
Julia: Yeah, I'm so severe to dairy. I'll put something on my skin –
even with a 'may contain' – and I'll get a rash. I once had a gum
that had a milk derivative in it, and I reacted to the gum, too.
GS: David, you mentioned travelling a lot. Have you ever felt a
little scared because of your allergies?
David: Yes. We went to France – luckily, my mom speaks French – and
one time we were asking at a restaurant if they'd fried the potatoes
in olive oil or peanut oil. We told them that I was allergic, but
they didn't get it. And so I asked again, because I was skeptical
based on the waitress's expression. And, it turns out, they were
fried in peanut oil, and my Mom wasn't too impressed. We left the
restaurant. The manager didn't care.
Julia: I notice that every new place I go, I have a reaction. When I
went to Italy, I had a reaction. When I went to Florida, I got maybe
two or three. I somehow get a reaction every new place I go. I'm
going to San Francisco this year and I'm paranoid about going there
because somehow I'm going to get a reaction.
GS: How will your family prepare for that?
Julia: Well, we don't all eat out. If my parents eat out, they'll go
by themselves. In San Francisco, we'll have a kitchen, so we can
cook. But even still, if you buy a drink I'm always scared to have
it. Last time in Florida, after I had the reaction, I just stopped
eating bought stuff. I just ate what my Mom made.
AM: Do you all carry an auto-injector? [Murmurs of agreement.] Do
your friends know how to use it?
Dylan: Yes, most of my friends know how.
David: They all know how to use it, and I've told them what you
shouldn't do. I've heard stories of people of people putting it
through their finger because they're holding it the wrong way. I
carry it and I have one in my bag, too.
Gardner: I have one of the Twinjects and a regular EpiPen. I find the
Twinject easier for gym class, I can just clip it on. I always have
it for hockey, soccer, lacrosse. I keep it on me all the time, except
I take it off for rugby.
Julia: I bring it [her EpiPen] to figure skating practice when I go.
David: I don't really mind having an allergy; it's brought a lot of
good things for me. I go to a camp [in the summer], and the cafeteria
food is made for everyone and it's usually pretty crap. But because I
have my allergy to soy, the chef, who I know quite well, actually
makes stuff that is far better for me. It works out quite well. The
same happens on school trips. And you also get a lot of attention,
people know your name, looking at the positive side.
GS: Some people don't like to be centred out. You don't seem to mind?
David: No [laughs].
GS: You almost enjoy it?
David: Yeah.
Dylan: Well I developed the allergy [at 9], so it hurt when I found
out I was allergic to peanuts because then I couldn't have donuts.
And then there was the ice cream – we can have Chapman's. But from
vendors on the street, you have to ask [about ingredients]. So I'm
not going to lie: it hurt; I really missed the food that I couldn't
have anymore.
But you do get some recognition. We [the family] went to see 'Fiddler
on the Roof' and we couldn't have some of the buffet food. So the
chef told us what stuff we could have and what to avoid. Then for
dessert, everything contained peanuts, so without telling us, the
chef came out with two plates for me and Jay of specially done
cheesecake. It felt kind of special. He made it for us.
GS: Thank you all for this.

Redmond touts Stanton's candidacy for NL MVP
MIAMI -- All aspects of Giancarlo Stanton's game came to the forefront in the Marlins' 6-5 win over the Cardinals on Monday night.
The 24-year-old right fielder smacked two home runs and made a run-saving diving catch. Stanton also showcased a strong arm, nearly throwing out Shelby Miller at first base on a single.
Doing everything is yet another reminder that Stanton not only was a deserving All-Star this season. According to manager Mike Redmond, the slugger should receive serious MVP consideration in the National League.
Entering Tuesday, Stanton paced the NL in home runs (31) and RBIs (82) and was batting .292, with a .393 on-base percentage and .568 slugging percentage.
Redmond is surprised Stanton isn't considered among the frontrunners for the NL MVP Award.
"I was watching one of those shows today, and they were talking about, just should he be mentioned. I was like, 'What? Just mention him?'" Redmond said. "I think what he's done is made a statement. For sure, he should be right up there."
Stanton isn't focused on personal achievements. He's striving to do his part to get his team back to .500 and into position for a final-month playoff push.
"I'm not typing MVP on Google every night," Stanton said. "I've got other things to worry about, starting with playing tonight."
After going through some struggles, Stanton feels he's getting back into the groove that he showed at the start of the season.
"I kind of fell off of my approach and my game plan for a while there," Stanton said. "But I'm glad. I'm feeling better."
The fun Stanton is having now is reminiscent of his days in youth baseball, when he had three homers in a game.
"I went 4-for-4 with three home runs," the slugger recalled from his Little League days. "They intentionally walked me the next time, so I batted lefty and actually hit it off the fence."

Iran Claims to Have Snared Another U.S. UAV, Navy Says It's a Lie

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Iran said it was forced to capture the drone after it "invaded" Iranian airspace
Is the U.S. in the midst of drone debacle 2.0? Iran
claims so
I. Iran Say It's Captured Mid-Sized U.S. ScanEagle Drone
hostile Middle Eastern superpower
's police/military organization -- the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) -- claimed on its website on Dec. 4 to have "captured"
a U.S. unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)
that had been hovering around its air space for several days.
Iran claims that the UAV -- a relatively commonplace low-cost flier model
called "ScanEagle"
, built by defense contractor The Boeing Comp. (
) -- entered its airspace, at which point it was forced to capture it.
The nation's state-run IRIB news agency carried a message from Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi who said he would use the captured flier as evidence at the UN of American violations of Iran's sovereign airspace. He said he would file a formal complaint "via international bodies" against the U.S.

Iran has not yet shown pictures of the allegedly captured flier.
II. U.S. and Israel Fight Silent War With Iran
Iran has been zealous in its accusations that the U.S. and its ally Israel have been carrying out a campaign to sabotage its nuclear and oil production facilities via assassinations,
, and
traditional espionage
The U.S. intelligence community has responded with allegations that Iran has funneled money and weapons into the Gaza Strip, using the impoverished locals as
soldiers of fortune against Israel

"support" of their military. [Image Source: AP]
There have also been unconfirmed claims that
recent cyberattacks on U.S. banks
originated in Iran.
Both the U.S. and Israel also have accused Iran of plotting to develop nuclear weapons, despite Iran's insistence that
its nuclear ambitions are peaceful
. President George W. Bush, who
initiated the preliminary cyberattacks
(allegedly) against Iran's nuclear program, famously dubbed the Middle Eastern state as part of "the axis of evil".
Precisely a year, ago Iran captured a far more valuable target than a ScanEagle -- an RQ-170 Sentinel drone, flying on a surveillance mission for the
U.S. Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA). Initially the U.S.
expressed skepticism
that the capture was real, but eventually they admitted that the drone was indeed captured and
demanded its return
. Iran responded by
sending U.S. President Barack Obama a pink toy replica
of the captured flier.
III. Iran Has Filed Complaints to the UN
This October, Israel tracked a drone launched by Hezbollah militants in Lebanon, which invaded its airspace. The Israel Defense Force (IDF) promptly shot down the flier, which they say showed telltale signs of being
manufactured in Iran
This November Iran and the U.S. filed complaints against each other before international regulators. The U.S. claimed its UAV was flying in international airspace when it was fired on by Iranian warplanes. The Iranians claimed instead that the drone had violated Iran's sovereign airspace. It was unclear if that drone was destroyed in the incident, but Iran promised "decisive" action against future intrusions.

In his letter to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon Iran's ambassador to the United Nations, Mohammad Khazaee called the alleged U.S. airspace violations "illegal and provocative acts". In the letter he claims that Iran has recorded seven different airspace violations in the Bushehr region near its nuclear plant.
IV. U.S. Navy Commander Denies Story About Captured Drone
U.S. Naval Forces Central Command has denied the latest Iranian claim of a drone capture, saying that all its drones are accounted for. In a statement to
, Commander Jason Salata comments, "The U.S. Navy has fully accounted for all unmanned air vehicles (UAV) operating in the Middle East region. Our operations in the Gulf are confined to internationally recognized water and air space."
The U.S. Marine Corps also makes use of ScanEagles, so it's possible that the Navy could be unaware of the loss if it was from the Marines, a semi-autonomous sub-branch.
ScanEagles are largely used to safeguard oil platforms against attack by pirates or terrorists in the Middle East. The 4-ft (1.25 meter) fliers are made from off-the-shelf components and aren't exactly top secret. They can be launched by catapaults mounted to vehicles or small ships. The catapults can also be positioned as a tripod-like ground-based launcher.

Once in flight the drone flies on pre-programmed routes taking pictures and video, aided by onboard global position system (GPS) circuits. When returning to base the drone is snagged with a "Skyhook" system in which the drone catches a rope hanging from a 50-ft (16-meter) high pole.
If Iran did "capture" the drone (which the U.S. currently denies) it may have done it by broadcasting fake GPS signals to the flier. That's allegedly
how the Iranians "hacked" the RQ-170 flier
to land in a specially designated capture site.
The incident comes at a time when Israel is putting pressure on the U.S. to respond with harsher sanctions and more decisive efforts to halt Iran's nuclear ambitions. Israel has threatened to launch missile or bomber attacks against Iran's nuclear sites if the U.S. fails to satisfactorily halt the development. Iran has promised it would respond to any such assault.

Global Handwashing Day
Celebrate Global Handwashing Day to promote handwashing with soap throughout the world.
Global Handwashing Day is a way to support a global and local culture of handwashing with soap, shine a spotlight on the state of handwashing in each country, and raise awareness about the benefits of handwashing with soap.1 Since 2008, Global Handwashing Day has been celebrated annually on October 15 worldwide. The Global Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with Soap founded Global Handwashing Day and encourages school children, teachers, and families to get involved.
Handwashing Saves Lives
Although people around the world clean their hands with water, very few use soap to wash their hands because soap and water for handwashing might be less accessible in developing countries. Even when soap is available, it might be reserved primarily for laundry and bathing instead of for handwashing. Washing hands with soap removes germs much more effectively than with water alone.2
- Millions of children5 under the age of 5 years die from diarrheal diseases and pneumonia, the top two killers of young children around the world.3
- Handwashing is not only simple and inexpensive, but also can dramatically cut the number of young children who get sick, if hands are washed with soap.
- Handwashing with soap could prevent about 1 out of every 3 episodes of diarrheal illnesses4 and almost 1 out of 6 episodes of respiratory infection like pneumonia.5
This handwashing demonstration will show you how handwashing can get rid of germs and chemicals that get on our hands every day.
Celebrate Global Handwashing Day
People and communities around the world will celebrate Global Handwashing day in many ways, including:
- Learning how to wash hands the right way with this video demonstration.
- Making songs and dances about handwashing
- Distributing activity sheets with activities for children to help make learning to wash hands fun
- Sharing handwashing lessons, events, and materials for thousands of students across the state of Georgia, where CDC is based
You Can Celebrate Global Handwashing Day in Many Ways
- Organize or participate in a handwashing event in your school or community
- Plan your event using the Global Handwashing Day Planner's Guide
- See what your school can do, and gather materials
- Download Global Handwashing Day materials and planning tools
- Celebrate virtually on Twitter and Facebook. Look for and use the hashtag #GlobalHandwashingDay, and get a toolkit with educational social media messages
- Make sure you and your family know when and how to wash your hands properly

Topic: My Sister
I have been discussing my sister lately. She is Stage IV Bile Duct Cancer. Her Gemzar and Xeloda were working but after about 7 months it stopped. They have now started her on Taxol and some other long word. She had one treatment 3 weeks ago and has lost her hair and about 30 pounds. Not eating, drinking, horrible headaches. And now one side of her face is drooping. She has another appt. tomorrow to get this chemo again. I am praying that they decide not to do it.
Has anyone ever heard of the face drooping side affect? This scares me really bad. Oh and so much pain. She is going downhill so fast and I don't know if it's the chemo or the cancer. She said her pain has increased ALOT.

Moloney collaborates with musicians, Bon Iver, the Pistol Annies, the Civil Wars, the Secret Sisters, the Carolina Chocolate Drops on The Chieftains' 50th anniversary album, "Voice of Ages." (AP Photo/Lynne Sladky)
NAPLES, Fla. (AP) — When Paddy Moloney started considering possible collaborators for The Chieftains' 50th anniversary album, he knew the kind of artists he didn't want: Mick Jagger, Sinead O'Connor, Van Morrison.
He'd worked with all of those stars in the past: "I didn't want to go in that generation," he explained.
"I wanted a newer generation; new kids on the block, you might say. Great indie contemporary stars of music."
Still, the 72-year-old Irish music titan admits to being a bit nervous about bringing young musicians into the Chieftains fold.
"I was 50-50 about doing it," he said. "Because I haven't been happy about what I've been hearing over the last 20 years, the music that's been coming out. I just wonder, is it music at all, you know? It's all commercial."
Here's who Moloney ended up with on "Voice of Ages": Best new artist Grammy winner Bon Iver, the Pistol Annies, the Civil Wars, the Secret Sisters, the Carolina Chocolate Drops and the Decemberists — to name a few. It was the band's first real collaboration with indie rockers, and Moloney couldn't be happier with the results.
"These younger bands, I could hear what I would call the revival of the bands of the '50s and '60s," said Moloney. "The music and the great songs and the lyrics."
Laura Rogers of the Secret Sisters said they were initially asked to collaborate with Moloney by mutual friend and record producer T Bone Burnett.
"A lot of the American music we love has a strong Irish influence," she said. "We grew up with folky Appalachian bluegrass music. Those styles of music have a lot in common."
Working in the studio with Moloney on the Irish folk song "Peggy Gordon" was exciting and comfortable, said Rogers. She also called him "sweet and encouraging."
Moloney and The Chieftains recently finished a month-long U.S. tour that ended on St. Patrick's Day at Carnegie Hall. He spends his down time, about four months of the year, resting up in Naples, Fla., at his sun-filled home with his wife, children and grandchildren. There's a grand piano in the living room and about a dozen tin flutes and other assorted instruments.
On most evenings, he walks from his home to the beach with a flute, and plays as an orange sun dips into the vibrant blue Gulf of Mexico. It's a long way from where Moloney began his career.
Born in 1938 outside of Dublin, Ireland, Moloney began playing a tin whistle as a boy and at 8, he learned the uilleann pipes. In 1962, he formed The Chieftains with Martin Fay, Sean Potts and Michael Tubridy and cut a record of traditional Irish songs. It would be six years before the band made another record and several members kept their day jobs for a decade — some worked for the post office and Moloney was an accountant for a building firm. Yet they kept playing and in 1975, the popular British music magazine Melody Maker named them band of the year.
"I was very determined to spread the gospel of this great folk art," Moloney said.
The scope of the band's success and lasting legacy is enormous: six Grammys and more than 50 albums. Their fans include everyone from Anjelica Huston to Irish-American astronaut Cady Coleman (who played a solo on Moloney's pennywhistle in space; the band included it on the new album).
Moloney, whose conversations are filled with entertaining anecdotes of his life and travels, talks casually of "turning up" at the house of the late Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones in 1966 and chatting with actor Peter Sellers as The Chieftains records played in the background.
He also recalls being 5 and listening to his grandfather playing flute in a "small little country cottage" in Ireland, while the neighbors accompanied on various instruments.
"They would knock on the door, unannounced. No telephone, no electricity for God's sake," Moloney said, laughing. "They'd start dancing and the dust would go up and that would go on all night."
For "Voice of Ages," Moloney has recreated that impromptu jam session in the little country cottage. He wanted all surviving band members from days past and present — he's dubbed the newer members "baby Chiefs" — to play one long song. "The Chieftains Reunion" is an 11-minute tune that brings everyone together.
It was Burnett who suggested working with the indie music scene on the other tracks. In the fall of 2011, Moloney traveled back and forth from Dublin to Los Angeles to make the 15-track record.
Rhiannon Giddens of the Carolina Chocolate drops said she was in awe the first time she had a conversation with Moloney: "I couldn't believe who I was talking to."
Giddens, who plays banjo, fiddle, and kazoo, said she has long been fascinated by the intersection of Irish music and black string music. The result on "Voice of Ages" is "Pretty Little Girl with the Blue Dress On," an upbeat and soaring tune.
A Chieftains European tour begins at the end of May and runs into June. The band will then play festivals in San Francisco, Vancouver and Nova Scotia. There's a winter tour scheduled in Japan and China, and after that, Moloney will return to Florida and the beach, with his family and flute.
Retirement? Not likely.
"My wife was asked about 10 years ago, 'Is he ever going to stop?' " said Moloney, grinning. "She said, 'Well, I think he's in rehearsal for retirement.'"

SHEPHERDSVILLE - In 2011, the Greater Bullitt County Youth Football League is looking for a good season, just not a hot one...at least not in terms of heat.
Deciding to start the season on the earliest date ever, Aug. 6 (a day earlier than last year), the league is well aware of the heat and humidity that that can sock it to the Ohio Valley in August.
