A carbohydrate-loading diet, also called a carb-loading diet, is a strategy to increase the amount of fuel stored in your muscles to improve your athletic performance for endurance events.
Carbohydrate loading is a result of continuing to eat a high-carbohydrate "training diet" while scaling back your activity level during carbohydrate loading.
Any physical activity requires carbohydrates for fuel. For most recreational activity, your body uses its existing energy stores for fuel. But when you engage in long, intense athletic events, your body needs extra energy to keep going. The purpose of carbohydrate loading is to give you the energy to complete an endurance event with less fatigue, improving your athletic performance.
Carbohydrate loading is most beneficial if you're an endurance athlete — such as a marathon runner, swimmer or cyclist — preparing for an event that will last 90 minutes or more. Other athletes generally don't need carbohydrate loading. It's enough to get half or more of your calories from carbohydrates.
Carbohydrates, also known as starches and sugars, are your body's main energy source. Complex carbohydrates include legumes, grains and starchy vegetables, such as potatoes, peas and corn. Simple carbohydrates are found mainly in fruits and milk, as well as in foods made with sugar, such as candy and other sweets.
During digestion, your body breaks down carbohydrates into sugar. The sugar enters your bloodstream, where it's then transferred to individual cells to provide energy. Sugar is stored in your liver and muscles as glycogen — your energy source.
Your muscles normally store only small amounts of glycogen — enough to support you during recreational exercise activities. If you exercise intensely for more than 90 minutes, your muscles may run out of glycogen. At that point, fatigue might set in, and your performance may suffer.
But with carbohydrate loading, you may be able to store up more energy in your muscles to give you the stamina to make it through longer endurance events. You still will need to consume some energy sources during your event.
Carbohydrate loading is done the week before a high-endurance activity:
Three to four days before the event, increase your carbohydrate intake to about 10 to 12 grams of carbohydrate per kilogram of body weight (70 percent of your daily calories). Cut back on foods higher in fat to compensate for the extra carbohydrate-rich foods.
Also scale back your training. Rest completely the day before your big event. The combination of eating more carbohydrates and tapering activity appear to improve muscle glycogen stores.
How many carbs you need depends on your total calorie goal as well as your sport. For most athletes, 5 to 7 grams of carbohydrate per kilogram of weight daily is right for general training. However, endurance athletes may need up to 12 grams per kilogram (1 kilogram equals 2.2 pounds).
Here's a sample carbohydrate-loading meal plan for an athlete who weighs 170 pounds (77 kilograms). Based on 4.5 grams of carbohydrates for each pound (10 grams per kilogram) of body weight, the meal plan consists of about 70 percent carbohydrates. You can tweak this sample carbohydrate-loading meal plan to suit your own tastes and nutritional needs. Keep in mind that 1 gram of carbohydrates has 4 calories.

Carbohydrate loading may give you more energy during an endurance event. You may feel less fatigued and see an improvement in your performance after carbohydrate loading. But carbohydrate loading isn't effective for everyone.
Other factors can influence your athletic performance or interfere with the effectiveness of your carbohydrate-loading strategy, including how fit you are, how well you hydrate and how intensely you exercise. Even with carbohydrate loading, you still may feel muscle fatigue.
If you're a man, a carbohydrate-loading diet can increase the levels of glycogen stored in your muscles from 25 to 100 percent of your normal amount. Fewer research studies exist about carbohydrate loading in women, and they've yielded mixed results. A woman may need to consume more calories than usual during carbohydrate loading to get the same benefits as a man does.
Despite carbohydrate loading, you still need to replenish your body's energy during endurance events to maintain your blood sugar levels. You can do this by periodically consuming sports drinks, gels, or bars, fruit, or hard or chewy candies during your event at the rate of 30 to 60 grams an hour. And don't forget to eat carbohydrate-rich foods after your endurance event, too, to replenish your glycogen stores.
Carbohydrate loading isn't right for every endurance athlete. It's a good idea to consult your doctor or a registered dietitian before you start carbohydrate loading, especially if you have diabetes. You may also need to experiment with different amounts of carbohydrates to find what works best for you.
A carbohydrate-loading diet can cause some discomfort or side effects, such as:

You can't beat a system you can't understand
Occasionally, and mean very occasionally, a columnist or news commentator will touch on the hidden agenda behind America's addiction to sports. Actually, "sport" has nothing to do with it. Fans do not sit in uncomfortable stadium seats that cost as much as half of their hard-earned paychecks to watch a group of gigantic, muscular athletes play nice. don't care if the game is football, basketball, hockey, or NASCAR racing. The thinly disguised agenda of these and a couple of other "sporting" favorites has little to do with gentlemanly contests between well-trained athletes. The purpose of these events is to stage violence and sell beer. There, I said it. It's in print. We've known about this for centuries, but rarely do we address the truth. Why? you ask. Because that would be uncivilized.
Our sports heroes, as role models, appear to set good examples for the nation's youth only because they are protected by contrived terminology. For instance, football quarterbacks are not arrogant; sportscasters call them "confident." Basketball is not a violent game; it is "physical." Charles Barklay, of basketball fame, retired from the Houston Rockets a few years ago. During his career, he won two Olympic gold medals, MVP of the year and a place in the history books as one of the most "aggressive" players in the game. However, he is as famous for his inventive quotes as for his record on the basketball court. He said this about his profession: "I am paid to wreak havoc on the basketball court, not raise your kids." Barklay attained superstar status for his "physical" approach to the game, and watching him commit flagrant fouls filled the stands with fans that clamored for his autograph whenever they saw him in public.
Long retired, football defensive lineman Conrad Dobler gained infamy for his aggressive play and merciless tackles. And he was a fan favorite. Recalling a game he played against sports commentator Merlin Olson when Olson was an offensive lineman for the Los Angeles Rams, Dobler said: "If you wanted to see how hard I hit him on instant replay, you had to go to the kitchen because I knocked him so far out of the TV frame." As sophomoric as the humor might be, he was proud of his accomplishments. Football fans loved to watch Dobler, who was the self-professed dirtiest player in football.
If the aggressive behavior that takes place on the football field happened anywhere else, the participants would be arrested for assault and battery, and possibly attempted murder. And if fighting was prohibited in hockey games, the attendance would plummet. As difficult as it might be to believe, fighting during a hockey game is against the rules. However, the sponsors (mostly beer companies) insist that the referees tolerate a certain amount of altercation to attract more fans so they can sell more beer.
Now, NASCAR is getting publicity in the media for "road rage" that takes place during races. Drivers appear to be blatantly bumping their competitors to cause accidents. It almost looks as if a marketing ploy might be in the making to attract more fans interested in controversy and the possibility of dramatic crashes on the tracks. And who are the biggest sponsors of stock car races? Bingo! You guessed it - beer companies.
Only the people involved in professional wrestling, which we all know is a staged drama, blatantly admit to being the true descendents of gladiators, whether the contests are fixed or not. Wrestlers willingly and cheerfully attest to pursuing top billing because they can dominate through intimidation, arrogance, and violent behavior. And their fans are just as barbaric. And who are the sponsors of this sophisticated indulgence? You guessed right again - the beer companies. They learned from the Romans in ancient times. Give the fans wine and violent entertainment and they will come back for more.
However, it is ironic how team management of any sport is intolerant of behavior that might include the use of controlled substances. Sponsors thrive on creating headlines and scandal out of the smallest infraction. Why? Because they want to set a perceived good example. They want to fight drug abuse. Do you think they really care? I don't. Let's be realistic, if fans spent all their money on drugs, they wouldn't have any left for beer. It's all a marketing effort.
Now for a quick look at the non-violent sports like golf and tennis. You never see a golfer standing toes to toes and nose to nose with a referee as they participate in a shouting contest. No - golf is much more dignified than that. Golf tournaments are sponsored by stock brokerages, insurance companies, and banks, as are many tennis matches. Why? Because the people who watch these events don't drink much beer. They drink bourbon, vodka, scotch, and other libations that are not permitted to be advertised on the airwaves. So, sponsors sell them a drug that is even more habit forming - greed. I suppose everybody has hidden agendas that drive their need for vicarious thrills. It's all part of that system we can't understand.

If you're into endurance racing then you need to get your name down for some of these events right now. Our bloggers Tim Dunford and Ben Thomas will be there and so should you be.
Here's the word from the organisers:
There's less than a month to go before the 2013 Endurance Series kicks off again after a brilliant first year of competition in 2012. Up and down the country, at some of the best mountain bike races on the calendar, the biggest names in British Endurance racing will be pushing themselves to the limit for the titles of Endurance Series Champion.
Once again the series will combine six well known mountain bike events, spanning a range of distances and durations, to produce the ultimate Mountain Bike Endurance Champions. At each event riders will be awarded points based on their final overall finishing position and the series winner will be the rider with the most points after the last race. This year that will be based on their five best performances.
There's an overall series cash prize of £300 again for the open winners, an Endurance Series trophy, plus complimentary entry to every round the following year. Reigning champion Hanneke van der Werf (Torq Devo) will be defending her title at all rounds this year, whilst male champion Tim Dunford (Mountain Trax-Vauxhall Motors Cycling Team) will be attending just five but hoping to maintain his perfect run of podiums.
The series provides a wide variety of racing with each event offering the rider something slightly different. Details of the six events that make up the series are as follows:
24th March - Whinlatter Mountain Bike Challenge (30 mile 2 lap race)
5th May – Gorrick/Kawasaki 100 (7 lap race)
11th May - 24 & 12 Hours of Exposure (24 or 12 hour)
10th August - Brighton Big Dog (6 hour solo)
25th August - Torq In Your Sleep 12:12 (12 hour solo)
15th September - Kielder 100 (100 miles)
As always the Whinlatter Mountain Bike Challenge will let riders ease into their racing season as the shortest event of the six. Entry is open now for every race and many sell out well in advance so be sure to book a place early.
Full series guidelines are available on the official series website www.endurance-series.co.uk, as well individual event information, race previews, reports and the series "points table" that will be updated after every race.

Then why are you crowing about your writing being superior to mine?
And, indeed, why are you trying to write thread-starting posts akin to CW news items?
Haha why does every thread involving Rodgie turn into a terrible slanging match? Just talk cricket or something.
......Broad to replace Lewis in England World Cup squad
Fast bowler Stuart Broad is to replace seamer Jon Lewis in England's World Cup squad.
Lewis - who has not played in the tournament proper - is set to return home to be with his wife, who is experiencing complications in pregnancy, an England team spokesman said.
Broad, 20, has played five one-day internationals since making his England debut last year.
The son of former England opening batsman Chris and the current Young Cricketer of the Year in England, Leicestershire's Broad was involved in England A's recent tour of Bangladesh.
tbh that's plagarism.

Arsenal end trophy drought with FA Cup win
Arsenal ended its nine-year trophy drought on Saturday, coming from two goals...
Tony Parker had 20 points and six assists to head a balanced San Antonio scoring attack as the Spurs recorded their sixth straight victory with a 104-73 rout of the Brooklyn Nets at the AT&T Center.
Parker made good on 9-of-13 field goal attempts, while five other players
finished in double figures to help the Spurs achieve a season-high for
consecutive triumphs. Tim Duncan scored 15 points, Nando de Colo added 11 and
Kawhi Leonard, Tiago Splitter and Matt Bonner all had 10 for a San Antonio
squad that shot a robust 58.9 percent as a team.
The Nets had come into the contest off home victories over Charlotte and
Cleveland in their first two outings since the team replaced Avery Johnson
with P.J. Carlesimo as head coach, but were buried by a dismal third quarter
in which Brooklyn made a mere 2-of-20 shots from the floor and were outscored
by a whopping 30-5 margin.
MarShon Brooks finished with 16 points and Joe Johnson had 12 for the Nets,
who also committed 18 turnovers that were converted into 28 Spurs' points.

The tradition of an early free Thanksgiving dinner for seniors was continued this year at the Kenai Senior Center by Hilcorp's employees who in less than 20 minutes served up over 200 turkey dinners with all the trimmings. "We just love interacting with the community this way and additionally we made up all the Meals on Wheels dinners for today so overall we served some 500 dinners today and we had a ball doing it," said Hilcorp's external affairs director Lori Nelson. According to Nelson some 24 employees volunteered their time to fill plates, serve the meal, pour coffee, serve pie and clean up, "The did it all and they did it with a smile and had a ball knowing that they are appreciated by the community where they live and work. We have a lot of oil and gas retirees here today many of whom use to serve this dinner back in their day, they are proud to be here and we're proud to be serving them and what they have contributed to our quality of life on the Peninsula," said Nelson.
Then on Thanksgiving Thursday there were several complimentary turkey dinners offered across the Peninsula from Nikiski to Kasilof and in Kenai the traditional Salvation Army free dinner served nearly 200 meals, "It was one of our biggest dinners in several years, many new folks made up the 155 who joined us for Thanksgiving dinner and fellowship. We sent another 35 meals home with folks for shut-ins and other family members so over all it was more than 187 meals this year. The Kenai Rotary Club provided the food that included 20 turkeys and the fixings; the Soldotna Rotary Club and some 30 volunteers under the direction of David Wartinbee were here early Thanksgiving morning as they are each year and cooked the birds, mashed the potatoes and sliced the veggies and got everything ready to serve. The day before the Cook Inlet Academy kids came in to decorate for the occasion and we really appreciate all the volunteers," said Salvation Army envoy Craig Fanning. In Soldotna former Soldotna Mayor Tom Bearup and his wife Adele invited any single veterans to share their Thanksgiving table.

was passed by Congress in 1974.
FERPA is designed to protect the privacy of students' educational records and personally identifiable information.
FERPA applies to all educational agencies or institutions, including the University of Northern Iowa, that receive funds under any program administered by the Secretary of Education.
Educational Records
An "education record" is any record that is directly related to a student and maintained by the university.
Education records include any records in whatever medium (handwritten, email, print, digital, etc.) that are in the possession of any school official.
Exceptions: Education Records Do NOT Include:
- Records in the "sole possession of the maker that are not accessible to other personnel"
- Law enforcement or campus security records created and maintained by the law enforcement unit and used for law enforcement purposes
- Employment records
- Medical/psychological treatment records
- Alumni records (those created after the student graduated or left the institution)
Directory Information
Directory information consists of information that is generally not considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if publicly available. Directory Information is considered public and may be released without the student's written permission, however cannot be released if the student has restricted access by updating their personal information in MyUNIverse.
• Directory Information CANNOT include: race, gender, SSN (or part of the SSN), grades, GPA, country of citizenship, or religion. Except in very specific circumstances, a student ID number also cannot be considered directory information.
• Every student must be given the opportunity to "opt out" or have directory information
suppressed from public release.
• A "no release" does NOT mean that a school official within the institution who has a demonstrated legitimate educational interest cannot access the information.

Do NOT:
• use the University ID number of a student in a public posting of grades or in any other
• link the name of student with that student's University ID number in any public manner
• leave graded tests, papers, or other student materials for students to pick up in a stack
that requires sorting through the papers of all students
• circulate a printed class list with student name and University ID number, photo, or
grades as an attendance roster
• discuss the progress of any student with anyone other than the student (including
parents) without the consent of the student
• provide anyone with lists or files of students enrolled in your classes for any reason
provide anyone with student schedules or assist anyone other than university
employees in finding a student on campus
• access the records of any student for personal reasons
FERPA Scenarios
Using the UNI Student ID number, Fred Faculty has posted the grades for his students on the wall outside his office. Posting grades in any personally identifiable format, such as with a name, SSN or Student ID number is a violation under FERPA.
A student's social security number (SSN) has been verified to a caller who received a document with the student's SSN on it. A student's SSN can never be directory information, and therefore cannot be disclosed or even confirmed as public information.
Professor Polly has been publically podcasting all of her classes, this includes class discussions, without notifying the students. Student participation in class discussions should not be made public without their express written permission.
A student is demanding that his advisor, Annie Advisor, share her personal notes about him with him. Under FERPA, these notes are considered "sole possession" records, which are an exception to "education records" notes and do not need to be released.
Student Rights
Students Have the Right To:
- Be notified of their FERPA rights at least annually
- Inspect and review their records
- Seek amendment to an incorrect record
- Limit disclosure of directory information
- File a complaint with the Department of Education concerning an alleged failure by the institution to comply with FERPA
When do FERPA rights begin? A FERPA-related college education record begins for a student when he or she enrolls in a higher education institution. At a postsecondary institution, rights belong to the student in attendance, regardless of the student's age.

Reye syndrome is sudden (acute) brain damage and liver function problems that do not have a known cause.
This syndrome has occurred in children who were given aspirin when they had chickenpox or the flu. Reye syndrome has become very rare because aspirin is no longer recommended for routine use in children.
Reye syndrome is most often seen in children ages 4 to 12. Most cases that occur with chickenpox are in children ages 5 to 9. Cases that occur with the flu are usually in children ages 10 to 14.
Children with Reye syndrome get sick very suddenly. The syndrome often begins with vomiting, which lasts for many hours. The vomiting is quickly followed by irritable and aggressive behavior. As the condition gets worse, the child may be unable to stay awake and alert.
Other symptoms of Reye syndrome:
Other symptoms that can occur with this disorder include:
The following tests may be used to diagnose Reye syndrome:
There is no specific treatment for this condition. The health care provider will monitor the pressure in the brain, blood gases, and blood acid-base balance (pH).
Treatments may include:
How well a person does depends on the severity of any coma, as well as other factors.
The outcome for those who survive an acute episode may be good.
Complications may include:
When untreated, seizures and coma may be life threatening.
Go to the emergency room or call the local emergency number (such as 911) immediately if your child has confusion, lethargy, or other mental changes.
Never give a child aspirin unless told to do so by your doctor.
When a child must take aspirin, take care to reduce the child's risk of catching a viral illness, such as the flu and chickenpox. Avoid aspirin for several weeks after the child has received a varicella (chickenpox) vaccine.
Note: Other over-the-counter medicines, such as Pepto-Bismol and substances with oil of wintergreen also contain aspirin compounds called salicylates. DO NOT give these to a child who has a cold or fever.

UPI reports on the notes left in the Dupont Circle Starbucks by Defense Department official Eric Ruff. The notes address the administration's response to Richard Clarke's allegations and were compiled for an early morning briefing of Donald Rumsfeld before his appearance on the Sunday morning talk shows. The UPI story is "Found notes may show Bush plan on Clarke."
The notes expose a shocking sanity rampant among the Bush administration:
"Stay inside the lines. We don't need to puff this (up). We need (to) be careful as hell about it," the handwritten notes say. "This thing will go away soon and what will keep it alive will be one of us going over the line."…
One of Clarke's most damaging allegations is that he crafted an anti-terrorism plan — a National Security Presidential Directive — to take on al-Qaida in January 2001. The NSPD was not approved until Sept. 4, and neither was it substantially changed in the intervening months, according to Clarke. He has challenged the White House to release both documents to allow for a side-by-side comparison.
The notes address this matter, saying the plan to attack the Taliban existed before Sept. 4. "The NSPD wasn't signed till Sept. 4 but had an annex going back to July (with) contingency plans to attack Taliban," the notes say.
That point is related to another in the notes. The briefing says commission member Jamie Gorelick, a former general counsel of the Defense Department under President Clinton, was pitting Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage against Rice. Under sworn testimony, Armitage contradicted Rice's claim the White House had a strategy before Sept. 11 that called for military operations against al-Qaida and the Taliban.
The odds were not strong that a friend of the Bush administration would find the notes — the District of Columbia is enemy territory. The notes were found by a Starbucks customer who gave them to the liberal advocacy group the Center for American Progress, which has published the notes on its Web site under the heading "The Pentagon's Papers."

Often I travel by ship / train long for many hours. Often I sleep. Every time I am afraid of my bag, someone could steal it as I sleep.
It would be awsome if I could put my bluetooth handsfree in my bag and have my n900 in my pocket. n900 could run an application that checks every 2 - 3 seconds BlueTooth signal strength ( maybe could be configurable range ) and if the strength gets low or none, then n900 will alarm loudly / vibrate.
I hope my idea was clean. And since I don't know much about programming ( only php :( ) I hope someone will find intresting my idea and make it!

By DAVID MURPHY
SAN DIEGO, Calif. – Jimmy Rollins wasn't just dead. He was Fredo Corleone dead. He was William Wallace dead. He was 12-point-buck-on-Roy-Oswalt's-ranch dead.
"There's a lot that goes through your mind when you know you are out," Rollins said. "And it's not good. It's really like two words. The first one is 'Oh.' And you can guess what the second one is."
Truth be told, Rollins doesn't know what happened next. One minute, he was rounding third and sprinting toward home, sure as the pleasant SoCal weather that Yorvit Torrealba had caught the throw from center field in perfect position to make the tag. The next, he was flying by the catcher's outstretched glove, twisting his torso and raising his arm and then slapping the corner of the plate with his hand.
He called it his Karate Kid fly-catcher move. Chad Durbin said it looked like something out of The Matrix. Brad Lidge, whose blown save on a bases loaded balk forced home the tying run in the ninth and led to the circumstances that unfolded in the 12th, called it the most athletic slide he'd ever seen.
Whatever the description, it resulted in the run that lifted the Phillies to a 3-2 victory over the Padres, in the run that snapped their four-game losing streak, in the run that cut their deficit behind the Braves in the National League East to two games.
Right up until the point he popped up from the dirt with an emphatic pump of the fist in the shadow of umpire James Hoye's safe call, Rollins and the Phillies seemed destined to lose another heartbreaker. In the eighth, after seven innings of frustration at the hands of 22-year-old Padres righty Mat Latos, they'd taken a 2-1 lead on Raul Ibanez's RBI single off of reliever Joe Thatcher. But like most of their leads this week, it evaporated quickly, this time in an excruciating ninth inning in which Brad Lidge hit Ryan Ludwick with a 2-2 pitch to load the bases with two out, then balked the tying run home.
It never would have happened if it were up to Roy Oswalt. The veteran righthander dominated the Padres for eight innings, allowing his only run and one of five hits on a solo home run to Yorvit Torrealba in the third. By the end of the eighth, he had thrown 102 pitches and retired 13 consecutive batters. Relying heavily on his fastball, he struck out six and walked none, throwing 78 strikes and just 24 balls. After retiring the eighth in order, catcher Carlos Ruiz egged him on.
"Carlos told me, 'You're going to finish this game.' And I'm like, 'Yeah, I'm going to try to," Oswalt said.
But Charlie Manuel scuttled that plan, pinch-hitting Domonic Brown for Oswalt to lead off the ninth with the hope of adding another run.
"At that point in the game, he was leading off the inning, I wanted to send someone up to hit," Manuel said. "We had the top of the line-up coming up, and also he had already did his job."
Oswalt, whose season high is 119 pitches, wanted to stay in the game.
"I felt like I could have probably finished the game," Oswalt said. "I lobbied for it a little bit. I mean, I understand, as far as trying to get the leadoff man on, maybe score another run, get a little more cushion. . .But I felt like I had good enough stuff that I could go back out there and finish it."
Lidge entered the night having thrown 10 straight scoreless outings, seven of which resulted in saves. After allowing a leadoff single to Matt Stairs a sacrifice bunt to David Eckstein, he got Miguel Tejada to ground out. But with two out, things unraveled. He intentionally walked Padres star Adrian Gonzalez, then hit Ludwick. Then came the balk, which Lidge said happened because he lost his grip on the ball at the beginning of his delivery, which started his momentum toward home.
"When I was taking (the ball) to my glove to get my grip, it started coming out, and I had to look down to get my grip, otherwise the ball probably would have fallen out of my glove," Lidge said. "By that time, my momentum was taking me forward, so I basically I had to step off or I would have fallen on my face. Kind of hard to explain. It happened pretty quick. But suffice it to say, I wasn't thrilled about that, and probably in million more wind-ups, something like that would never happen."
The damage was limited to three extra innings by the bullpen, the last two coming from Durbin. Rollins led off the 12th with a double off the wall in right. Then, Placido Polanco singled up the middle, and third base coach Sam Perlozzo waived Rollins home. Center fielder Luis Durango charged the ball and unleashed a laser to home plate, where Torrealba appeared to have the sprinting Rollins lined up.
But then came the slide.
"I was really just trying to avoid him," Rollins said. "It's just a bad feeling, going 'Oh. . .' And he started to swing the glove around, and by the time I looked back, he was behind me. Somehow I ended up in front of him. I don't know what I did. And then I just tapped the plate. I'd given up. Not given up, but as in, 'I'm out.' Until he didn't tag me.'"

There's been a lot of talk lately about the imminent demise of the print media. With the economy in the toilet, subscriber bases shrinking, advertising rates declining, and demographic shift moving many publications' readers ever-older with no younger readers to replace them, it's looking grim. Some cities will be losing their only daily newspaper. Even the New York Times is in danger of going bankrupt. Even with advertising rates putting pressure on net-based publications, online publishing is here to stay. Is there room in this world for printed tech publications?

Morning Five: 06.13.13 EditionPosted by rtmsf on June 13th, 2013
- Another day, another mob with pitchforks standing outside the gates. ESPN.com's Darren Rovell reported yesterday that a group of former NCAA athletes has filed a $5 million suit in federal court against a company that sells photographs of college athletes without their express permission. Although the claim does not list the NCAA nor some 90 schools alleged to sell images to the defendant company, it wouldn't be much of a leap to eventually go after them as well down the line. Under current NCAA rules, the schools have the right to promote their own games using player images, but the legal question will center around whether they also have the right to sell or transfer those images. This lawsuit is of course unrelated to the Ed O'Bannon likeness case also working its way through the system in federal court, but the underlying issue — that players are not compensated for their work and corresponding brand — is very similar.
- While on the subject of the mission of the NCAA and its member institutions, the Chronicle of Higher Education published a piece yesterday from a professor at Ohio State University named Steven Conn. Conn, an American history scholar, took his soon-to-be-former boss, OSU president Gordon Gee, to task not so much for his forced retirement based on a series of verbal gaffes; rather, for helping to create and propagate the "athletic-industrial beast that defines higher education now." The point he's ultimately making is that college presidents nowadays have to spend so much time dealing with their athletic programs because of the money and prestige associated with them, that they've completely lost sight of what the true mission of an institution of higher learning is supposed to represent. Interesting read.
- With all the pressure on programs to succeed in the revenue sports, it probably shouldn't surprise anyone that the average D-I men's basketball coach has been at his current job for a total of 38 months — just over three years. This information and plenty of other coaching longevity tidbits comes courtesy of D1scourse, Patrick Stevens' site examining college sports in the mid-Atlantic area. Although it was news to us that only one coach has survived at one school since the '70s (Jim Boeheim at Syracuse, 1976), and only seven since the '80s, the real takeaway from his analysis is that over 55 percent of true seniors who signed a letter of intent in November 2009 have experienced a coaching change in their careers. And yet we continue to penalize them for transferring, why, again?
- While on that topic, a really odd situation has developed involving DePaul forward Donnovan Kirk, a player who spent the first two years of his career at Miami (FL) before transferring to Chicago for the last two seasons. Given Miami's success under Jim Larranaga especially relative to the train wreck at DePaul, Kirk has now decided to use his graduate transfer exception to head back to Miami for his final season. That's right: a double-transfer where he is ending up at the same school where he originally started. He only averaged 6/4 last season for the Blue Demons, but he's a great leaper and was among the Big East leaders in blocked shots per game (1.6 BPG). He'll move right into a lineup in Coral Gables that is extremely lacking in experienced size, so this appears to be a win/win for both parties.
- The fortunes next season for another major basketball school in Florida — not FGCU, sorry — are still somewhat up in the air at this early summer point of the offseason. There are always a number of players finishing up coursework and dealing with standardized test scores to become eligible for next season, but in the case of Florida's Chris Walker, there are serious concerns about his eventual eligibility. Not only does he still need to pass the ACT, which he has now taken three times, but he has to finish three core course requirements over the summer before he can enroll at the university in Gainesville. With most players these days getting themselves on campus for the early summer term to start prepping for next season, it doesn't appear that will be an option for Walker very soon, if ever.

Misenheimer, NC---Pfeiffer men's basketball team celebrated senior night with a 87-72 victory over Coker College Saturday night. Chris Woods had a double-double with 18 points and 10 rebounds to lead Peiffer as the Falcons improved to 18-5 overall and 14-3 in the conference. Coker falls to 8-16 and 6-11.
It was senior night and it was alumni night. Merner gym on the campus of Pfeiffer University was packed, and the Falcons did not disappoint, scoring 19 points in the first 3:09 of the game to take a 14 point lead vs. Coker. It was a lead they would never relinguish as Pfeiffer stretched it to 19 points at half and as many as 28 points in the second half and won 87-72. Four year starter Craig Thomas and fellow senior Thomas Carr, a transfer playing in his second year at Pfeiffer went out in style. The seniors were a big part of the great start to the game as Carr made two 3-pointers and Thomas a dunk off a pass from Carr in the opening run.
Robert McGriff was perfect from the floor going 7-7 and 2-2 from the 3-point line in leading Pfeiffer with 17 points. Freshman Chris Woods had 18 points and 10 rebounds in 19 minutes of playing time. Logan Call was 6-9 from the floor and he and Carr had 13 points each. The Falcons outrebounded the Cobras 49-38 and forced 24 Coker turnovers for their 18th win of the year.
"Our players really wanted to pay tribute to and honor our two seniors, and they did it in grand fashion," said Pfeiffer coach Dave Davis. "Each member of the team wore headbands to honor Craig and a t-shirt under their uniform to honor Thomas and then went out and played like champions. I cannot say we have ever had a pair of seniors that have provided player leadership on the level that these two have. They are quality young men and it was so nice to send them out on a positive note on their senior night. Robert is slowly getting back into form and Chris again was a monster on the glass. Logan has stepped up his play and had another outstanding offensive game and Mike Davidson had his best defensive game of the year. It was another game where 13 guys contributed to a win, at a time of year when most coaches are shortening their bench, this group continues to give me reasons to play them. Craig and Thomas are special players but more importantly special people. Our team has had success this season because these two have led them to it. Player leadership is the most important ingredient to winning team championships and these two are the best."
Pfeiffer won for the 18th time in their past 20 games and stand at 18-5 overall and 14-3 in Conference Carolina's. Pfeiffer ranked #6 in the latest East Regional Poll, sits alone in 2nd place in the conference, one game back of #1 regionally ranked Mt. Olive. Pfeiffer plays three of their final four regular season games on the road and twice this next week, at Allen on Tuesday in a non-conference game and at Anderson Saturday.

I did have an IV, but DS was born less than 20 minutes after it was inserted, so i don't think his birthweight was inflated. The scale that he was weighed on on Saturday is at another pediatrician's office, so unfortunately, I cannot use that one again. I will be going to a bf-ing support group today, so I will get a ball park number of what he's weighing.
So, I've noticed that about a quarter of my right breast is hard. It's near where the blocked duct is. Could this be mastitis? It is painful, but there is no redness, flu symptoms or fever. Also, my breasts seem to be VERY tender, even after breastfeeding. On Kellysmom it says you won't always feel the lump under the skin when you have a bloced duct.... could i Have a ton of blocked ducts? Actually, now that I think of it, when I stopped breastfeeding my daughter, I stopped cold turkey. Which was extremely painful, and not recommended . That was a year ago, could that be why I'm having issues now?

The products from Infowise have enabled us to expand the functionality of our portal exponentially. While the time, and cost, savings have been incredible, more important is the added functionality for our end users. Great value for the cost.
I can honestly say there is no software vendor I deal with that gives me the level of support and attention that Infowise does. The product and the people that represent the product are what counts and I have not been disappointed with either. Thank you for all of your help and I look forward to bigger and better things from both your software and your company.
Infowise products gave us a whole bunch of new features that made development of SharePoint solutions a lot easier. Infowise team have provided us with excellent support. Responses to questions and feature requests have been really fast.
Your Electronic Signature tool has been instrumental in our ability to go paperless. Thank you again!
The Infowise products are simple to use and add the functionality to automate business processes without any complex coding. I have managed to create 3 quality related sites and deployed them without any coding, without this software It would have taken a lot longer. I had researched the competitors products and found the Infowise products to be easier to use and most importantly cheaper
The Infowise suite of products have greatly increased the usability and feature set of our SharePoint infrastructure,
letting our developers focus on what they do best – building business critical applications. Truly a value added product.
The Infowise suite of products has made it possible for me to accomplish tasks that I could not previously do out-of-the-box. Their products work great and are very user friendly. Best of all, the enitire team at Infowise has been exceptional and they are VERY prompt with their responses. I highly recommend them to anyone.
Infowise Solutions tools allowed us to move forward quickly with a SharePoint solution that could not have been accomplished without these well thought out solutions. However, it was in support that Infowise stood out above all the rest. The support and responsiveness we received from Vladi Gubler and his team is far superior than services I have received from custom solution developers in the past. Quite frankly if it wasn't for Infowise we would not have met our goals and solutions in the timeframe we were able to do so, nor at the level of sophistication we achieved. I feel we hit a homerun by partnering with Infowise.
Infowise solutions have significantly increased our ability to provide complete solutions throughout the Davis H Elliot SharePoint sites. Using Infowise solutions has helped with user adoption because they are easy to configure and use. Their support and technical group goes the extra mile and are always attentive to every little detail. We are huge fans and will continue to use and purchase Infowise solutions for our SharePoint needs.
We have been trying to integrate certain functionality for several years into our SharePoint environment. After doing countless Google searches we found Infowise. Their solutions offered everything we were looking for without any custom programing, and greatly enhanced our SharePoint experience. On top of that their support team is very responsive and is able to quickly address any problems experienced.
The Infowise toolset has proven to be a powerful and tightly integrated software which allows for rapid solution development. As a developer, I am amazed at the level of customization I am able to achieve with a no code solution. I have been able to roll out sophisticated project management tools in only a few weeks instead of using months of time doing custom code and application development. I was initially concerned that the tools might be "too boxed in". I couldn't have been more wrong. Whenever I have hit a stumbling block – the team at Infowise has helped me get past it immediately. Product updates are coming out all the time. Upgrading the environment to include new features is just a matter of a few simple steps. I love these guys!
I was given a task to create an intranet site for my work place, without much knowledge and experience and under a tight schedule. Infowise product made it possible. Now if you are like me and have little programming knowledge and not a SharePoint designer, my first call would be to Infowise. Main reason I choice them over other companies (yes I tried them) easy to use, great and fast support, and, most of all, the end product creates shock and compliments.
We have been tasked to integrate the ability to sign SharePoint library/list forms electronically. We were so happy to find the Infowise Electronic Signature (ES). We've found the ES very easy to install, use and is at a perfect price point for our limited budget. Additionally our experience with Infowise customer service has been exceptional! We will now always make Infowise the first stop in our search for future extended SharePoint solutions.

Vyvanse may help control ADHD. In a clinical study of adults with ADHD, Vyvanse improved attention at 2 hours and even 14 hours after taking it.*
*Efficacy measured using Permanent Product Measure of Performance (PERMP), a skill-adjusted test that measures attention in ADHD.
There are three core symptoms of ADHD: inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. While anyone can feel inattentive, impulsive, or hyperactive sometimes, people who have been diagnosed with ADHD must have experienced a certain number of these symptoms for at least 6 months in two or more settings (like home, school, or work). Symptoms must also have been present before the age of 12 and not be due to another mental disorder. To learn about all the symptoms of ADHD and how they may appear in children and adults, check out the ADHD diagnostic criteria and the full symptom list.
The information in this site was created to help you understand more about ADHD so you can have a more informed conversation with your doctor. Remember, only a doctor or other health care professional can diagnose ADHD.

Lauren Conrad takes on Heidi and Spencer Pratt over their fame seeking ways in next month's edition of Harper's Bazaar magazine. She also makes mention of her former BFF's boob job. When asked why Heidi posed in September's issue of Playboy, Lauren cleverly made reference to Heidi's cosmetic enhancements saying, "They're not going to pay for themselves."
She doesn't stop there. "I don't call magazines and let them know about things so they can write stories," she says of the Pratts. "There was never an incentive to keep doing The Hills so I could get into [Hollywood club] Les Deux. That was never the point. It was more to create a fan base so I can go create a business and do something I really love doing." Lauren however goes on to say she finds both Heidi and Spencer to be very entertaining and funny to watch.
In the inteview, she mentions how her life has changed since The Hills and the price of fame. One of the drawbacks of fame according to Lauren include being unable to take part in regular activities, like having a normal relationship or planning a vacation.
"My roommate went to Europe for two months, but I couldn't take a vacation without clearing it months and months ahead of time," she says. "My friends all got to date guys who didn't need to sign a release form."
"The last three concerts I went to, I was removed by security because I was a fire hazard,"adds Lauren. "People crowd around you and you lose that whole personal-space concept."
In the photo shoot, Laura wore a brown wig which will be donated to a young girl undergoing chemotherapy in the Detroit area.

Chateau de Delusion Might Go Into Foreclosure
"Why don't I just flash you real quick and we can pretend like this never…. Wait, why are your running away while scratching at your eyeballs? Take these papers with you!!!!" is probably what White Oprah screamed at a process server yesterday when he dropped off foreclosure notice papers. Both Radar and The New York Post says that a process server dropped off very important court documents at the Lohan family house on Long Island yesterday. The fat-mouthed process served told a reporter for the Post that the documents were for a mortgage issue with Chase bank. Radar says that this isn't the first time White Oprah is in danger of losing the Lohan family crack house and that she's almost $1 million in debt. That gurgling in my stomach isn't from the Oreo and protein powder shake I had for breakfast. It's from thinking of that Steve dude from Vivid offering LiLo and White Oprah $1 million to do mother/daughter porn.
Radar also says that LiLo moved into her old bedroom at White Oprah's house, because her credit sucks and she can't even afford to rent a storage closet in the Bronx. But some source (FYI: in real talk, "some source" translates into "Dina Lohan") tells TMZ that LiLo isn't shacked up in her old bedroom. LiLo is putting the SO? and HO in SoHo, because she's living rent-free in a friend's SoHo penthouse. The friend is letting her stay there for free until she can get her own place and is letting her live there for as long as she wants.
I really can't hate on LiLo's hustle. Whenever I give a lazy handjob and a half-assed blow job, I get pushed out of the car. But when LiLo does it, she gets to live in a SoHo penthouse for free! I wonder if her friend is still going to consider himself a friend of hers when he shows up to his penthouse and finds that she's taken everything including the faucets and that she's been renting the place to the leaders of an underground sex ring for twice as much.
