Good morning, Sparklers! Today is the first day of August and I feel like a million bucks, you guys should, too! I've changed my Spark Login Name to something I find a bit more inspiring than SHLEWIS. You see, my little triumph last week was saying to myself "Quitter? I ain't quitting. Frack that noise." Well, I'm Fracking the Noise forever now, because there isn't any room for quit in my world. There's a difference between tired, lazy, and completely worn out and needing to stop - it's time I start paying attention to the differences. The further along I get on my journey the more I realize that each day is a new one filled with promise and opportunity. I look at the progress I made last week on my runs and the challenges I'm having with eating right - and I realize that today and every day after is my opportunity to celebrate my victories and learn from each of my choices. Yesterday I went paddling for TWO HOURS on the Allegheny river. I have no idea how far we went, but it was an AMAZING trip. If you live in the Pittsburgh area and have not tried Kayak Pittsburgh yet, I strongly recommend that you do. The city looked beautiful, we only got slightly rained on, and the temperature was perfect. Talk about an AMAZING trip! I didn't get my run in yesterday afternoon as planned because work here in the office exploded. It's alright, I'm not sure I would have paddled as well as I had if I'd already run! So, today is run day (Usually I take Wednesdays off), and I'm looking forward to kicking C25K's ass! In other news my scale is refusing to move, I've been at 208 now for about a week straight. Not up. Not down. Just a flat 208. I've tried recallibrating my scale, moving it... everything. No dice. Someone needs to talk to my scale and remind it of just how flipping awesome I am! Tonight is my makeup meeting of the Fat Kids Club, I had to miss last night for the Kayak expedition. Here's hoping I learn something amazing!
Well, last night I did something I've formerly been too shy to do - I actually put photos of my bare middle on the internet. It's funny, what inspired me was the scene as I was getting ready for my run yesterday. I wear dry-fit spandex gear to run in. I like the way it fits, I like that it wicks the sweat away. As nice as it is to see the results of my work on a t-shirt in the form of nice, big sweat patches, on particularly hot days I like for the sweat to not sit so close to the skin. Anyway, I'm standing in the locker room last night and looking at myself. I notice how my top fits and I see that beneath my boobs is something else - indentations. To me, for a second, they looked like the start of my future abs. They looked like those nice, strong muscles hiding out under the layer of fat I've cultivated for 15 years. I look closer, I can see that my ribs are working at coming back. I notice that what used to be a solid blob of fat is now becoming something else - it's being consumed. And I love it. So, that's why at like 11PM I had to post those photos. I just HAD to. I'm feeling so up right now it's like I could run my 5K tomorrow! Last night was week 5 day 1. I was scared. Three five minute runs? Really? And I rocked it. And I'm going to rock it again today. There's my good friend the chart. The chart gives me feedback and I love it. What do I see there? I'm working my ass off and I'm not doing something exactly the same as I was to start with. That's right, my calorie intake has racheted up. Well, it's time to start paying more attention. Time to remember 1500 is not the goal, 1200 is. In other news I've decided that it's time to re-frame one of my goals and rewards. I've mentioned in a previous post that I am going to DragonCon in September and my reward for losing 30 pounds is to get a photo with John Barrowman from Doctor Who and Torchwood. Well, It's looking like 30 isn't going to happen. I'm sitting firmly at 208 and have been for about a week or so now - that means I'd have to lose eight pounds in four and a half weeks. If it happens, great; but, I think 25 pounds is reason enough to celebrate with this once in a lifetime opportunity. So, I've got three more pounds between me and John Barrowman. That's it for today - keep on Sparkin' on!
Well, I decided I wanted to do something insane. I wanted to show the world my middle. My stomach, abdomen, or paunch has been covered for as long as I've been an adult. Well, I'm not hiding it anymore. Sure, those little ripples might not be the beginning of ab muscles as I pretend they are - but, you know what? They're not rolls. They're not a solid blob. They're progress and I'm proud. I got this. I ain't quitting. Just you wait and see. .
Welcome to Monday, all! This weekend wasn't quite as exercise-riffic as I wanted it to be on Friday. This happened mostly because on Saturday I got sucked into getting things done in my craft room and then ridiculous thunderstorms came through. At least I can say I must have climbed my stairs about thirty times. On Sunday I almost didn't go for my ride. I'm working on a rather frustrating costume piece of female body armor at the moment - and let's just say I'm having a hard time not giving whoever wears it a uniboob. Oh the joys of turning an animators art into real-life! Sunday's ride was awesome. I had wanted to do a full two hours but I found myself really strugging about the hour and a half mark so I high tailed it back. 105 minutes and 13 miles, I'm pretty proud! Of course, my ride did leave me with a few tips I'd like to give my fellow riders. You see, here in Pittsburgh we're in the middle of a bit of a culture war. We have a burgeoning cycling population alongside a motorist culture that (like most) is impatient and resentful of many cyclists. I can completely sympathize with the motorists and pedestrians, neither of which want cyclists on their roads or sidewalks. Why? Because three-quarters of the cyclists I encountered this weekend were completely rude, law ignoring, and dangerous. Yes. Dangerous. I'm talking passing without warning, not stopping at stop signes, and veering in and out of traffic. Four times I rang my bell to let someone know that they were about to be overcome by a cyclist who flew up past me. It made me ashamed to be a cyclist. These are my personal rules of the road, I'm sure most people would agree with some and a few people will agree with all. Cycling for the Patient and Prudent 1. Just because the law says you can ride on the street does not mean it's safe for you to do so. Can you keep up with the speed and flow of traffic? Is there enough space for you to share the road safely with automobiles who may want to pass you? If not, you may want to choose an alternate route or utilize the sidewalk. 2. The sidewalk is there for pedestrians, if you must ride on it, be courteous - call out that you're there, invest in a bell, or simply walk your bike. 3. Do not assume people can hear or see you. Just because you can hear the click-clack of your wheels as you roll along does not mean that someone else can. Get a bell. Call. Don't just assume that someone psychically knows you're going to pass. 4. "On your left!" Use it. Always. Cyclist, pedestrian, crawling baby. Let people know where you are or where you will be. 5. When people move for you, thank them - it encourages the behavior from the pedestrian for other cyclists. 6. Stop signs. Traffic lights. Cross walks. Lane markers - they all apply to do. Do not ignore them. I have never seen a road sign that says "Except Bikes." 7. Share the road. Sure, it's nice to ride beside someone, but if you see someone coming in the other direction, make some space. 8. For the love of all that is holy do NOT wear headphones. You have a responsibility to be more aware of your surroundings than your average jogger - and taking away your hearing while travelling at 10+ miles-per-hour only puts yourself and others in danger. Alright, I've ranted enough. I hope everyone is safe out there if they choose to bike!
Welcome to Friday, everyone! It's a rainy, humid, and a bit chilly at the moment here. It's alright, I like to run in the rain :) The great news for today is that my scale again says I'm living in Oh-Burbia. I don't want to stay in Oh-Burbia forever, I'd much rather be in One-der land; but, I'm kind of enjoying the ride. For example, this morning I did my usual check of back fat. Yes, it's a very scientific method where I just feel back and see what's hanging out (literally.) For a while, I could get up toward my second knuckle. Now I'm just barely able to get past the first. My body is liking all this work I'm making it do! Other casualties of portion control and increased exercise are my double chin and the start of a dimple in the side of my thighs. Big butt, this is your official warning, you will be vacated! Today I'm running C25K week four day three. I crushed my run yesterday and I feel confident that the rain and humidity will do nothing to make me falter today. What is killing me today is that it's Food Day at work. This is worse than a buffet at a party - because everyone wants you to try THEIR dish. Yes, theirs. You must have egg bake, and fried sausage biscuit thingies and french toast! So far, I haven't suffered too badly. I don't think I'll be eating much for dinner tonight, though. (I should also note that I did bring everyone cupcakes, because even though I can't eat them I would appreciate others being able to enjoy them!) There are still eight pounds between me and John Barrowman! Time to step up the training!

This hawk will often fly up and land in a nearby tree, on top of a fencepost or some other lofty perch and watch small birds at a feeder.
After awhile when the hawk thinks he can surprise and catch one of the songbirds, it will swoop in. You will see the songbirds quickly scatter in alarm to evade the hawk.
It is a good idea to place your bird feeder near some bushes which the songbirds can immediately dart into.
Look for a hawk sitting somewhere nearby if you notice that there are no birds at your feeder during a time when you expect them to be feeding, especially when the feeder has seed in it.
The Cooper's hawk is very similar to the sharp-shinned hawk.
Both hawks hunt the same way, often diving into thick brush after their prey. The sharp-shinned hawk is a bit smaller with fewer bars on its tail and a less rectangular body shape than the Cooper's hawk.
The sharp-shinned hawk is larger than the kestrel, which is another hawk that may come to a bird feeder to catch and eat a songbird.
All three of these hawks are native to Southeast Missouri.

The owner of a Nissan Leaf was arrested in Georgia last week for stealing 5 cents worth of electricity after he plugged his car into the exterior outlet at a local middle school while his son was playing tennis.

The National Insurance Crime Bureau says the theft of pickup truck tailgates is soaring in the U.S, aided by the ease of removal and a ready market on the internet. Most of those thefts go unreported because the replacement cost is often less than truck owners' insurance deductibles. Still, the number of thefts reported to insurance companies have gone from just 3 in 2008 to more than 500 last year. An experienced thief can remove an unlocked tailgate in as little as 10 seconds.
"Those are just insurance claims. We know that number is woefully under-representative. The problem is much, much larger," said Frank Scafidi, NICB public affairs director. "There's a huge market, and that feeds the monster." (Read More…)
An interesting story out of Hawaii, where Dodge Charger rental cars are being targeted by thieves due to the ease of which they can be broken into – and officials are aware of the matter, with little action being taken.
A few months ago, Volkswagen extended its joint venture contract with Chinese partner FAW for another 25 years, with appropriate pomp and circumstance: Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao and German Chancellor Angela Merkel witnessed the signature. Now, Volkswagen takes the unusual step of going semi-public with the theft of intellectual property. According to reports in German media, FAW has "systematically and repeatedly" stolen designs of important components such as engines and transmissions. Volkswagen's hands are tied. (Read More…)
Having spent most of my driving years in car-theft-prone neighborhoods in California and preferring the please-steal-me Honda Civic as my daily driver of choice, I learned many years ago that a secret starter and/or fuel-pump cutoff switch is a must-have. Such kill switches have prevented theft of my past Civics on three occasions that I know about. Last week, the maddeningly hard-to-find kill switch I installed in my 18.2-second quarter-miler 1992 Civic left a Denver Honda thief empty-handed. (Read More…)
We've known that the Cadillac Escalade was America's most-stolen vehicle, but we never asked why. The answer: GM didn't put steering locks on a number of Escalade and other GMT9000 Ute model years, and shifters on these models are easily pushed out of "Park." These weaknesses (and their ineffective fixes) allow thieves to push Tahoes, Denalis and Escalades to a safe spot where parts stripping can be done in a matter of minutes. And as the report details, Onstar is rarely effective at stopping quick snatch-and-strip-style thefts, because the damage is typically already done by the time vehicles are reported stolen. Hats off to WXYZ TV for looking past the statistics and finding the truth behind the Escaladae's stealability. GM is reportedly working on a new steering column replacement for these vehicles.

Newest tattoo!
It's on my left forearm. It's a note my mom left me the night she died. Here's a side-by-side shot of the two.
Deserves every note.
I cried and then I reblogged
This is my son, Chester, who is nearly 4. He was invited to his friend Chloe's birthday party today, the theme was prince and princesses. He asked if he could go as Sleeping Beauty, so I bought him a dress and put a cute little clip in his hair.
We arrived at the party to the following comments from the adults present:
"Oh that is just cruel.""Why did you make him wear a dress?"
"Poor little man, what's your mummy playing at?"
"He's going to hate you when he grows up."
"No way I'd let my son dress like a girl."
The fact is, Chester is almost completely gender neutral. I let him wear what he wants, be it boys or girls clothes, and he plays with whatever toys he likes. This usually involves him holding tea parties while wearing his pink Minnie Mouse top, jeans and a tiara. The guests are more often than not a mixture of Winnie The Pooh characters, dinosaurs, Barbie, Dora and solders, and they're usually transported in his favorite fire engine.
When my husband arrived at the party later on, he was subjected to endless ridicule from the other dad's present about how I must keep his balls in my back pocket because otherwise he would have put his foot down and not allowed Chester out like that. Oh, and by the way, our other son dressed as Ariel. When my husband pointed out that the boys were happy, and the mother of the birthday child made a point of saying how wonderful she thought it was that we allowed them freedom of choice and expression, they then stopped talking about it to our faces and started muttering about us behind our backs.
Interestingly enough, not a single child said a word about their choice of costumes, other than to compliment Chester on his new dress.

MY GOD if you have a significant other, act like it!!! I don't want to find out you're indeed not single after weeks of flirting. Even if you don't do anything, that's cheating. Which by the way, SINCE WHEN has cheating become acceptable?!! I've heard too many times recently girls laugh off that they cheated on their boyfriends. OH, so when a guy cheats on you he's a creature of Hell, but when you do it, it earns a simple "whoops"?!!!!??? I don't think so. You're just as immoral as anyone else who toys with hearts. I don't know if you realize how much it kills someone to build them up to a special value then just knock em down like it's fun. That's sick and I'll never support something like that. Realize what you're doing, before what you're doing just consumes you. If you wouldn't want to be known as an immoral cheater, then you probably shouldn't cheat.
I miss when phones weren't all the fun. I miss when people's hands were empty. Because then they were truly free and able to work and play all day. Nothing holding us back. Now there are so many better and easier options than to go outside and do something wonderful. There are certainly people who do great things with their material items but I fear that the rest of the people stuck at home really actually want to be there. And to me, that's unfortunate.

Long-time readers of this blog know that I have a "ignore the idiots" rule. They also know I frequently break that rule, particularly in the face of idiocy that's so egregious that it's fall-down-in-hysterics kind of funny.
So when I got this charming missive from an e-mail account that immediately went into defunct mode (because, it would seem, the author follows my Twitter and may be someone I've crossed paths with before – and, I'm guessing, doesn't want me to find out his real name), I knew I'd have to break my rule yet again.
For the record, I'm not entirely sure that this guy believes everything he says. It all feels a little too pat and manipulative. At the same time, the attitude he displays is actually pretty common – both for certain Moscow expats and other folks. And his crude stereotyping of Russians is even more common. As such, I want to publish this letter, and respond to it publicly. The author certainly doesn't deserve that, so this letter is aimed at otherwise decent people who harbor similar sentiments. Maybe by reading this, they'll realize how ridiculous these sentiments make them look.
gosh Natalia,
You know things are about to get awesome when you get an e-mail beginning with a "gosh."
in a way, I really didn't want to send this letter. But in another way, you really leave me no choice. Allow me to begin by saying that the Moscow News is a great paper: its funny, witty, accessible without being stupid, and very much of use for expats. As a seasoned Moscow expat I have admired it for a while, and even the fact that the print edition is now an insert in Moskovskie Novosti doesn't detract from it. If anything, it's fun to read two papers in one (and my Russian, i dare say, is good enough).
It starts out being so sweet! Awww. He's trying hard to be nice, but I have left him with no choice. Prepare yourself for real talk, 'cause it's coming.
There is only one problem with the paper. There is no way in saying this in such a way that won't be hurtful, so I will merely have to be blunt about it: that problem is the fact that it's run by a woman. It's run, in other words, by you.
I like how he has to really sit there and explain to me that the paper I run is run by me. Just in case I don't know that. I mean, crazier things have happened in this world, I suppose. You could run a paper for months and even years and never know about it. Thank GOD I have "seasoned Moscow expats" looking out for me.
I know what you're thinking right now. "What? How? This is the 21st century you neanderthal [SIC] and I am a liberated young woman (here you can mention all of your skills, your diplomas, awards, experiences)! How dare you question my skill!"
Yep, it's true. When someone tells me I can't do something because I'm a woman, I immediately start listing all of my awards – including those horse show awards I got in the 7th grade – in a desperate attempt to prove that I TOTALLY CAN DO IT ALL. Because I naturally take such claims very, VERY seriously – and you should too, ladies.
The problem is…… (And I really must stress this point) I'm not questioning your skills. Skills are fine! But there is also the problem of image. And in Russia, a woman in charge will never be fully accepted or truly successful. Sorry for laying down the cold, hard truth in this manner, but surely with your own Russian roots (which you have talked about on Twitter), you know exactly what it is I'm talking about. You can be in denial, thats [SIC] fine. But this is Russia. Some things will never change.
You know, this caricature of Russia is fantastic, but it's totally missing a bear playing sexist songs on his balalaika while wearing an "I like rape" t-shirt. Come on, seasoned Moscow expat! IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR YOU TO REALLY GO FOR IT?
For expats, Russia is a man's world. We come for the women, the parties, the money.
We fuck with abandon and take the best prizes.
And we're not the only ones. Russia for Russians is also a man's world. This won't be something you can deny for long.
See? I told you guys that things were about to get awesome and they TOTALLY have.
In the long term a woman in charge is simply bad luck for the paper. There is a REASON why there are no interesting female journalists in Russia, and no interesting female expat journalists in Russia.
Yeah, I personally found Pulitzer Prize winner Ellen Barry to be boring as hell. Same goes for BuzzFeed's Miriam Elder & TNR's Julia Ioffe. Oh, and the ones who have remained here? God, don't even let me start on how dull THIS lot is. Lynn Berry bores me to tears, for example. Colleagues Natalia Yefimova and Anna Arutunyan, Kristen Blyth and Joy Neumeyer? I fall asleep every time one of them does so much as begin a sentence in my presence.
This is all beside the terrifying fact that RIA Novosti, Russia's biggest news agency and the owner of The Moscow News, is run by Svetlana Mironyuk. The boredom is so overwhelming and oppressive that it's a wonder how we manage to do any work around here.
In general, uninteresting, uninspiring, positively lifeless women in the Russian media abound - everywhere from pro-Kremlin juggernaut Russia Today (run by Margarita Simonyan) to the stylish Dozhd TV (run by Natalia Sindeeva). Everywhere you look, there's some boring woman going up in the mountains to talk to terrorists (see Russkiy Reporter) or chasing after corrupt officials (see Novaya Gazeta).
And everyone knows that Anna Politkovskaya was shot dead because of how utterly bland HER style was. There, case closed.
Russians know more about human nature. They know about nature period. They don't believe in aggressive female movements (look where Pussy Riot is right now and you will know what I mean), they couldn't care less about western PC norms, and they loathe to have a woman in charge, and think it is unnatural.
This is SO true, you guys. In fact, Russians are SO into nature, that they recently went ahead and banned nanotechnology and antibiotics. Mother Russia is synonymous with Mother Nature, and no one here will let you forget that. Of course, it can get a bit annoying. People drop their pants and do their business on the street – since it's the natural way and all – and that takes some time to get used to. Sometimes, my sleigh gets stuck in the snow on the way to work. Every once in a while, we discover a family of squirrels hibernating in my husband's natural, traditional beard, which he hasn't shaved since he was 15, 'cause he's a real man. But hey, whatever. Russians are into nature, REAL nature, not some watered-down, PC type of nature they propagate in the "dwindling" and irrelevant West.
I will bet a thousand dollars that Your Russian colleagues hate you, even if you can't admit it it won't be any less true.
This is the horrible truth at the core of my existence. My vast professional experience proves that they hate me. The journalists, the film critics, the producers, the theater directors, the media managers, the PR gurus, the IT developers, the bank executives, the overworked beat cops who answer their phones in bedroom voices, the doctors, the lawyers, the shop owners, the chefs, the restaurateurs, the political analysts, the sociologists, the actors, the war veterans, the big-name bloggers, the TV hosts with polished manners, the sound guys in torn t-shirts, the celebrated painters, and, well, pretty MUCH everyone I'm in contact with personally or professionally – they despise me for the leadership roles I've taken on in my lifetime. Sometimes, they scream and throw rocks.
In fact, every woman hurrying on her way to work at the expense of her traditional, "womanly" role gets rocks thrown at her in Russia. It's a national past time – like hockey, only with more violence.
I don't know when you arrived in Russia, but I assume it wasn't that long ago.
And it is best you hear the truth now, from a friendly source.
There are traditions in this world that shouldn't be overlooked simply because it is now "in fashion" to do it in the rapidly dwindling west. If I were you, i would think long and hard about your real purpose in this world – and about your REAL purpose in Russia.
I'm honestly feeling blessed that this guy totally took time out from his busy schedule of fucking with abandon and getting all of the prizes to write this screed. My life is forever changed. In fact, my life is now a brooding montage of me whispering the question of my real purpose in this world as the snow falls in slow motion all around me and migalka-laden BMW's honk in the street. And that, my friends, is a special gift.
your admirer
Eat your heart out, ladies, for he is MY admirer, and totally NOT YOURS. My life may be dull and meaningless, my lady-brains may be inferior and hormone-addled, but I have "seasoned Moscow expat" on my side – and if seasoned Moscow expats be with us, who could be against us?
On that note, I am now going to quit my job, renounce my education, and go wander in the desert. Who's with me?

WTA Championships Controversy; ATP Basel, Valencia Previews
Controversy came with the end of the season as Kerber received a late wildcard for the Linz tournament, which she won, allowing her to edge Wozniacki for a Top 8 spot. "I do not understand that (the WTA) can suddenly change the draw and allocation of wildcards that way," Wozniacki said. "There are many things that have been done in an unsportsmanlike and unethical manner. And you can hear from other players. They think it's so ridiculous."…

it is incorrect to say the pill has no effect if a woman is already pregnant. It is also disingenuous to suggest such a thing when it is well known and easily available information for a reporter to obtain that the morning after pill works to prevent conception, but also is abortifacient in that it prevents implantation or support of an implanted embryo/conceptus/baby as well. So, please don't try to convince those who may not know better that it does not affect pregnancy or cause abortion when that is one of the drug's primary functions. No, the drug is not safe and not morally acceptable to use. Yes, the Administration is correct to keep it away from young women, minors who may be exploited by their, 'pimps/handlers' with this drug to, 'keep up businees' without regard for those young women.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
5 takeaways from Panthers cruising past the Vikings 35-10
MINNEAPOLIS - As the final seconds ticked down, Cam Newton walked across the field to find Adrian Peterson and offered a warm embrace.
It was a moment of comfort for Peterson, who was playing two days after his 2-year-old son was killed in an alleged case of child abuse in South Dakota.
Newton also comforted some anxious Carolina Panthers fans on Sunday with a performance more fitting of the franchise quarterback everyone wants him to be.
Newton threw for 242 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for another to help the Panthers roll over the Minnesota Vikings 35-10 on Sunday.
The efficiency, consistency and big plays from the pocket were much needed for Newton, who was coming off a woeful performance against Arizona in which he threw three interceptions.
Newton said he wants to "be very thorough with my craft for a full four quarters of football and not just one half." If he can accomplish that, the Panthers (2-3) suddenly become much harder to deal with.
Peterson rushed for just 62 yards on 10 carries, his lowest output since Week 2 of last season. He rushed to a hospital in Sioux Falls, S.D., on Thursday when he learned that his son was badly injured. The mother's boyfriend is charged with aggravated battery and aggravated assault, and the boy died on Friday not long before Peterson vowed to play in the game.
"I just prayed and asked God to give me the strength just to get through the game, just play and focus," Peterson said. "And for the most part, I did. It was a terrible way to lose, but we can learn from this, make some corrections and get back on track."
Here are five things to take away from the Panthers' win over the Vikings (1-4):
PETERSON DIDN'T THINK TWICE: When Peterson spoke to reporters on Friday, he was resolute in his stance that he was going to play the game despite the death of his son. The football field has always been his shelter during difficult times, and Peterson said he never wavered about his decision to play. "I just look at things and I don't ask people to understand my mindset and how I think," he said. "Anything bad, I try to take good from it. That's the way I approach life in all situations. I never thought about not playing. It was all about just going out there and praying that I have the strength to get through and help my team. That was my focus."
RIVERA THE GAMBLER: Panthers coach Ron Rivera's roots are on the defensive side of the ball, and he freely admits that he is generally more of a conservative coach. But sitting at 1-3 and needing to give his offence a jolt, Rivera decided to go for it on fourth down twice on Carolina's opening drive of the game. It paid off when the 15-play drive culminated in a 2-yard touchdown from Newton to Steve Smith, and a boatload of confidence for the offence in general. "For him to trust us means a lot and it speaks volumes," Newton said. "For us, he is a defensive coach by nature, so he always has that conservative mentality. But I think that he is kind of breaking his mould to a degree, and giving the whole team confidence with him."
STINGY PANTHERS: Carolina's front seven is fast becoming one of the toughest in the league. The Panthers haven't allowed a 100-yard rusher in nine straight games. Thomas Davis had two sacks and Mike Mitchell had two interceptions and a sack of his own to lead the way. And stuffing Peterson may have been their biggest accomplishment yet. "You know we gave up one big run and if we don't give that up we might have had him under 50," Mitchell said of Peterson's 31-yard run. "He's the best running back in the league so he's going to get his but I thought we did a good job keeping him bottled up for most of the day."
LAFELL'S BIG PLAY: The Panthers were leading 14-3 in the third quarter when Brandon LaFell got behind Vikings cornerback Josh Robinson and hauled in a pass for a 79-yard touchdown. It was the start of 21 straight points for the Panthers that turned a sloppy game into a rout. LaFell had four catches for 107 yards.
VIKINGS' POROUS SECONDARY: The Vikings entered the game tied for 29th in the league in pass defence. The beleaguered secondary took a couple of hits that could prove costly on Sunday. Safety Harrison Smith, arguably the best defensive player on the team, went down with turf toe on his left foot in the third quarter. Rookie cornerback Xavier Rhodes also sprained his right ankle. Both will get MRI exams on Monday to determine the extent of the damage.

David Rogers, professor of digital strategy and marketing at Columbia Business School, is a widely-recognized leader on digital strategy and brands, known for his unique insights into customer networks. He is the author of "The Network Is Your Customer: 5 Strategies to Thrive in a Digital Age" published in 2011 by Yale University Press. He is the co-author, with Bernd Schmitt, of "There's No Business That's Not Show Business: Marketing in an Experience Culture" and co-editor of "The Handbook on Brand and Experience Management." David tweets at twitter.com/david_rogers and blogs at www.davidrogers.biz. David speaks at conferences worldwide on the ways that digital trends are transforming business strategy. Rogers received the award for Brand Leadership at the 2009 World Brand Congress. He writes regularly for BNET and has appeared on CNN, CNBC, Marketplace, Reuters, MSN Money, and Channel NewsAsia. David has advised and consulted on marketing and digital strategies for leading companies in the consumer packaged goods, technology, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, telecom, hospitality, non-profit, and media industries. David is founder and host of Columbia's acclaimed BRITE conference, where leaders from business and media discuss how innovation and technology are transforming the ways we build great brands. TOPICS In a world of social networks, mobile computing, and billions of smart sensors, we are now awash in data. New tools to harness data are powering self-driving cars, lifecasting athletes, and real-time flu-tracking. For businesses, big data poses new challenges, and demands new kinds of leadership. But for those who can master it, data will offer incredible sources of innovation and customer insight, and provide the answers to some of marketing's most vexing questions. Amidst a slew of data from new digital tools, even successful marketers find it hard to know "which half of my marketing is working?" – or to explain to the CFO where they should next invest in digital and why. Instead of searching for a universal ROI solution, marketers need to think strategically about their own customers' path to purchase. By linking audience, engagement, and financial impact to their key business objectives, they can build a model that ensures marketing will matter for their business in the digital age. David Rogers will provide a strategic guide that any business or non-profit can use to succeed in the digital age. David will examine how digital technologies, from smart phones to social networks, connect us in ways that transform our relationships to businesses and one another. To thrive today, organizations need new strategies - strategies designed for customer networks. He will offer five strategies for businesses to create new value: • ACCESS: Be faster, be easier, be everywhere, be always on. • ENGAGE: Become a source of valuable content. • CUSTOMIZE: Make your offering adaptable to your customers' needs. • CONNECT: Become a part of your customers' conversations. • COLLABORATE: Involve your customers at every stage of your enterprise. The rapid adoption of social media, mobile computing, and new technologies by both customers and employees is transforming the landscape for business and posing entirely new challenges for senior leadership in every industry. The rise of the networked consumer is creating new demands and opportunities for digitized products, services, and market insight, while posing new risks for corporate reputation and re-defining the relationship of consumers with brands. The rise of the networked employee is transforming the nature of work, collaboration, and innovation, while posing a demand to break through organizational silos and develop new corporate culture, ethos, and leadership skills. This immensely practical session will offer research-based insights into the core behaviors driving the digital revolution, numerous case examples from across industries, and a focus on the key skills that senior executives will need to lead the networked organization of tomorrow. Our old model of marketing to customers is broken. In the new age of customer networks, brands will not be built by broadcasting messages via mass media to passive consumers. Today's customers are dynamic, independent and connected. They have power and influence online that can make them your biggest threat, or your greatest marketing asset. To tap the power of customer networks will require more than just setting up a Facebook page and Twitter account, however. To thrive today, brands must know how to innovate the products, services, and communications that help the customer do what they most want – to access, engage, customize, connect, and collaborate in the digital world. These five network strategies will ensure the success of any brand in the digital age. The time for social media dabbling and experimentation is over. To earn the advocacy of today's customers, marketers must prove they can create real value – through the products, services, and communications that networked customers seek. Any digital strategy must be focused on clear objectives as well, and able to demonstrate positive impact for the firm. Marketers need to quickly evolve from focusing on activity metrics (such as impressions), to engagement metrics (depth of social interaction), to actual business metrics that drive bottom-line results. "Being more social" is not the goal. But by tying programs to firm ROI—whether from customer acquisition, increased lifetime value, or customer advocacy—any social strategy can ensure it contributes to the organization's success. |

Jon Hendricks
Jon Hendricks
The genius of vocalese, Jon Hendricks' ability to write coherent lyrics to the most complex recorded improvisations is quite notable, as were his contributions to the classic jazz vocal group Lambert, Hendricks and Ross. Hendricks grew up in Toledo, OH, singing on local radio. After a period in the military (1942-1946), he studied law but eventually switched to jazz. He spent a period of time playing drums before becoming active as a lyricist and vocalist. In 1952, his "I Want You to Be My Baby" was recorded by Louis Jordan. In 1957, Hendricks made his recording debut (cutting "Four Brothers" and "Cloudburst" while backed by the Dave Lambert Singers). Soon, he teamed up with fellow singers Dave Lambert and Annie Ross to form their vocal trio, starting off with a re-creation (through overdubbing) of some of Count Basie's recordings. Lambert, Hendricks and Ross (after 1962, Yolande Bavan took Ross' place) stayed together up to 1964, and were never topped as a jazz vocal group, influencing those that would follow (including the Manhattan Transfer). In 1960, Hendricks wrote and directed the show Evolution of the Blues for the Monterey Jazz Festival; he would revive it several times during the next 20 years. During 1968-1973, he lived and worked in Europe. After returning to San Francisco, Hendricks wrote about jazz for the San Francisco Chronicle; taught jazz; and formed a group with his wife Judith, children Michelle and Eric, and other singers (including for a time Bobby McFerrin) called the Hendricks Family, that was active on a part-time basis for decades to come. Although he never recorded often enough, Hendricks did cut a classic Denon album featuring McFerrin, George Benson, Al Jarreau, and himself, recreating all the solos in the original version of "Freddie the Freeloader." He also recorded through the years as a leader for World Pacific, Columbia, Smash, Reprise, Arista, and Telarc. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi

LeMaitre Vascular buys Angiotech Lifespan business
- Michelle Lang
Burlington medical devices firm LeMaitre Vascular Inc. (Nasdaq: LMAT) has agreed to pay $2.8 million to buy the Lifespan Vascular Graft manufacturing business from Angiotech Pharmaceuticals Inc. of Vancouver, Canada.
The acquisition also includes a factory in Laguna Hills, Calif., according to a news release from LeMaitre.
Angiotech's Lifespan is a vascular prosthesis that is designed to be a blood access site for dialysis, as well as its use in repairing diseased arteries. Lifespan is sold through distributors in the U.S., Canada, the European Union and Japan.
The vascular device and implant maker made an acquisition three years ago of Italian graft maker Biometeriali Sri for $2.6 million in cash.

A baby died after a head trauma, 1 year old Rehma Sabir was being taken care of her nanny Aisling McCarthy Brady, 34 on January 14 when she had suffered from head injuries and died two days later because of brain damage. The police found blood in the pillows and blankets in the baby's crib and also the wipes found in the nappy pail was also been bloodied, there are also some multiple healing fractures found in the medical reports. The defendant pleaded not guilty however there are still more anticipated charges until the final report of the Chief Medical Examiner have been submitted.
I hate reading these kinds of news lately. It's just so confusing how a nanny hurt such a fragile little child and to find that out that the baby had some multiple healing fractures also mean that the baby was hurt not long ago. I don't know what the parents are doing leaving a child just to someone. That is why I hate getting a nanny; I would never leave my child alone with someone I barely know, because it happened to my brother too when we are still little, he had a nanny and his legs was buckled until bruised just because he wont get inside the house and our mother was out that time. My mind would never be at peace unless a nanny was supervised by an adult family member.
