See the Star-Studded Super Bowls From Years Past!
This Sunday's Super Bowl will be a chilly one, as it's the first Super Bowl to be played in a cold weather outdoor stadium. But that won't keep the stars from flocking to football's biggest game outside New York, New York. To prepare for the big game, we're taking a look back at the famous faces who have attended in years past. In 2010, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt took Maddox to check out the action, and Britney Spears joined *NSYNC on stage in 2001. And let's not forget that Destiny's Child reunited at last year's Super Bowl game. We've got two words for this year's halftime performer, Bruno Mars: bundle up! Keep reading to see all those moments and more.

Baby fever that is...and it is not good!
I cannot stop thinking about having another baby. We can't even consider it right now (if ever). I was diagnosed diabetic in Nov. 09 and I am back on the insulin and we are trying to regulate my BG numbers and I'll probably get an insulin pump in the next month. I had GD during my pg with Alison and it basically never resolved. Did find out that I carry an antibody that makes me more likely to develop diabetes, but the pg just triggered it into action. It totally sucks, but that is a whole nother post. ;) My liver enzymes are still elevated and they don't know why. Pretty soon they are going to send me for a liver biopsy if they don't go down.
Health wise, having another baby is probably not a good idea (at least not for awhile, but I'm not getting any younger!)But I can't help thinking about it. It totally scares me to think of getting pg again, moreso than when I was trying to get pg after losing Abby. I think I just have more to consider now. I don't know. Sorry for the long rambling post, but I think out of everyone, you ladies will understand the most. Pretty much everyone IRL assumes we are done so I don't really want to talk to my friends about it since they all say "seriously, you want to get pg again? why?"...um, why did you want to keep having kids. Grrr...wow. this is long.

Have you ever heard of Lizzie Velasquez?
No? How about the "World's Ugliest Woman?" Perhaps you were one of the one million people who saw her on YouTube, where that shockingly cruel label was once slapped on the young woman who suffers from a rare disease that renders her unable to gain weight.
Pause a moment before you crack a joke about how many people would not find it a problem to eat whatever they want without gaining weight.
For years, Velasquez was bullied – ostracized by peers, ridiculed by Internet strangers. One person, hiding behind his or her computer screen, even went so far as to say she should do the world a favor and kill herself. Instead, she became an author and motivational speaker who now challenges others to re-define beauty.
Velasquez's story is one of millions that prove bullying is real, and it continues to happen daily in schools and communities and on social media sites around the world. Children and teenagers are the most common victims, taunted for anything from their looks to their family structure to whether they choose to play soccer or the clarinet.
For years, www.TeenCentral.Net has been helping young people combat bullying through mentoring, education and support. If you are bullying someone else, think about how hurtful your actions can be. Would you want to be treated in a similar manner? And if you are the one dealing with the pain of being bullied, channel Velasquez's positive spirit, log onto TeenCentral.Net and remember that you, not your tormenters, have the power to define who you are.

Speaking with Joe Rogan immediately following his loss to Chris Weidman, Anderson Silva was adamant that he didn't want a rematch and didn't want to fight for the title anymore. However a report today is that Silva has already changed his mind and is hoping to fight Chris Weidman again in February for the UFC's big Super Bowl weekend card:
According to Lauro Jardim (@radaronline), from @Veja, sources close to Anderson Silva revealed he wants a rematch with Weidman on Feb. 2014
read official Twitter...
Now the usual disclaimer. Guillerme Cruz is a respected in journalist in Brazil, however Twitter isn't always the most accurate source of information. However, most fans and members of the media believe that is likley that after thinking it over Silva would want a rematch to avenge the worse loss of his career.
* I think if Weidman wants to defend the belt before Feb 2014, he should have that option. No reason Weidman should be forced to sit out for the next 7 months to wait for a rematch with Anderson.
Silva opens as favorite in potential rematch with Weidman
Two separate lines saw it that way. Sportsbook.com made Silva a -175 favorite (he's already been bet up to -185), while 5Dimes.eu listed the Brazilian at -140.
Weidman is a +155 and +100 underdog on the sites, respectively.
Those numbers are among the closest odds in Silva's UFC career; when he fought Dan Henderson in 2008, he closed at -140.

Recipe by Laura Moody
"Blueberries and zucchini baked up into delicious little summertime bread loaves!"

eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup
vegetable oil
3 teaspoons
vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups
white sugar
2 cups
shredded zucchini
3 cups
all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon
1 teaspoon
baking powder
1/4 teaspoon
baking soda
1 tablespoon
ground cinnamon
1 pint
fresh blueberries
Moist, delicious and YUMMY! I've made without altering and it is delicious but ofcourse I always take it to another level which is even YUMMIER! I used 3 cups of zucchini instead of 2, 2 cups white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar instead of all white sugar and added a sprinkle of nutmeg. I also make a crumb topping( 2/3 cup flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts and 1 stick softened butter-mix altogether with hand) and sprinkle all over the top of the loaves before baking. Now- that is one heck of a good loaf of blueberry zucchini bread! Will not leave my recipe box!
This recipe is not very forgiving. I used a smallish zucchini (which I also drained of a lot of its liquid). It yielded a little more than the 2 cups indicated in the recipe. The batter ended up being the proverbial 10 lbs. of stuff in a 5 lb. bag. It rose like the dickins in the oven and overflowed the pan. So... the 4 mini pans don't begin to cover the room needed for this batter. Try using at least 5 if not 6 mini pans. Also, the recipe indicates a "light" greasing of the pans is needed. I greased them well and yet two of the loaves stuck to the bottom of the pans. I only used 2 C sugar instead of the 2 1/4 C required by the recipe, and it still was overly sweet. Also, even when it's cut the next day, it doesn't cut well; it easily crumbles.

I made in 2 large loaf pans and baked for 1 hour 20 min. I didn't change anything else and it was perfect!!! We all loved it!
This was wonderful! I did make changes: half white/half whole wheat flour, used 1/2 cup canola oil and 1/2 cup applesauce, and less sugar. I also made a crumb topping with equal parts flour, sugar and oatmeal mixed with cinnamon and enough smart balance spread to make it crumbly. This was to die for, really, I couldn't stay away! I will make this again and again! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
this recipie is the best zucchini bread recipie i have ever had. 2 things that i do to kind of kick it up a notch is i use half applesause and half oil, and i mix together 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon white sugar and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg and i sprinkle it in the loaf pans prior to pouring in the batter.
Wonderful recipe and an ingenous way to use up the mountains of zucchini that come out of summer gardens! Increased the zucchini to 2.5 cups and ensured that I squeezed the water out of the zucchini by lightly salting it and letting it "weep" for 20 minutes or so. I changed the flour ingredient to: 1/2 white flour and 1/2 whole wheat flour and used 1/2 cup of applesauce and 1/2 cup oil vs 1 cup of oil for a healthier recipe. On a side note; to prevent your blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the pan, coat them in flour before adding. This will help them bind to the batter. Enjoy!
This is a great recipe as is, and also works well with some healty substitutions (1/2 whole wheat flour 1/2 white, 1/2 applesauce for the oil). I have also made muffins from this recipe, just up the baking powder to 3 tbsp for a more cake-like texture. I also like to sprinkle them with a little raw sugar before baking to add a nice little crunch. Thanks so much for this great recipe! A family favorite!
I made this twice. The first time it was terrible! I made a half recipe for a standard loaf but there wasn't enough batter to fill the pan adequately, so I had to sub with a smaller pan that just didn't seem right to me. As it baked it rose unevenly, with a square, level top, not the nicely rounded top it should have. After repeatedly checking it for doneness I finally gave up – I didn't want to mess with it anymore. As I turned it out of the pan directly into the garbage can rather than onto a cooling rack, it somehow finally dawned on me that I forgot to include the zucchini in this Blueberry ZUCCHINI Bread! So I tried it again. It was just the right amount of batter for an 8x4" loaf pan. As it baked it was fragrant and developed a nicely risen, rounded top. It was moist, with a compact yet tender crumb, chock full of blueberries and pretty specks of zucchini. It was full of flavor, delightfully sweet with a delicate hint of cinnamon. It was perfect. I am not. Don't forget the zucchini.

Walker backs shift to mental health community care
Calling Milwaukee County's Mental Health Complex "old and busted," Gov. Scott Walker said Friday he backed efforts to switch more patients to community care.
Walker called suggestions that the state revoke the county's hospital license and take over the complex "a good leverage point" and "something to consider." But he didn't take a firm position for or against such a dramatic move.
State intervention has been called for by Disability Rights Wisconsin, a federally chartered patient advocacy group, and Joe Sanfelippo, a newly elected state representative and a Milwaukee County supervisor. Problems at the complex are so severe and the pace of reform so slow that the state should step in, according to the disability rights group and Sanfelippo, who chaired a county panel that examined the complex in Wauwatosa following instances of patient sexual assaults that surfaced in 2010. »Read Full Article(45)
Abele, board member spar over economic programs
Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele's administration has dragged its feet on two economic development programs that originated with the County Board, supervisors said Monday.
Abele heatedly denied the charge.
Though initial proposals for a $1 million small-business loan fund and a $1 million job training program were approved more than a year ago, the loan program hasn't gotten off the ground. The training program was launched this year, but the $167,000 paid so far to the Wisconsin Regional Training Partnership/BIG STEP has gone mainly for staff salaries and office supplies, the board's Economic and Community Development Committee was told. »Read Full Article(22)
Marchers demand funding amid cliff cuts
Dozens of protesters gathered outside Sen. Herb Kohl's and Sen. Ron Johnson's downtown Milwaukee offices Monday, calling on them to tax the wealthiest Americans and preserve programs for the poor and middle class as the nation nears the so-called fiscal cliff.
"We don't need any cuts to our Medicare and Medicaid," said Edward Jude of Milwaukee, a Vietnam veteran whose 29-year-old daughter relies on state-funded health care for her sickle cell anemia treatments.
"With these here cuts, what am I supposed to do, watch my daughter pass away?" »Read Full Article(312)
Marquette professor announces state Supreme Court bid
Madison - Marquette University Law School professor Ed Fallone announced Monday he is seeking a spot on the state Supreme Court and signaled he would run against the court itself as much as against Justice Patience Roggensack.
"The Wisconsin Supreme Court is dysfunctional and the only way to fix it is to change the personalities on the bench," Fallone said in a statement. "I am not beholden to any political party or faction on the court or any special interest group. The people of Wisconsin expect - and deserve - judges who respect the importance of an independent judiciary and who are impartial and fair."
His announcement sets up a likely primary, provided all the candidates turn in at least 2,000 nomination signatures by Jan. 2. In addition to Roggensack and Fallone, consumer law attorney Vince Megna has said he is running for the 10-year term on the court. »Read Full Article(104)
Police make season-high 18 arrests at Packers game
Green Bay - A season-high 18 arrests were made at the Packers' home game Sunday against Detroit.
Of the 18, 12 were for unlawful conduct at a public event. Four also were accused of resisting arrest. Two people were arrested on suspicion of marijuana possession, while one person was cited for disorderly conduct. Three were accused of underage drinking, with two of them also cited for obstructing an officer.
Fifty people were ejected for misconduct, police said.
Fans usually behave well when the Lions play at Lambeau Field compared with when the Vikings or Bears visit, but these were the most arrests and ejections when the Packers have hosted Detroit since at least the 1996 regular season. (9)
Two cases show differences in prosecuting law enforcement officers
In 2009, Milwaukee County Sheriff's Sgt. Scott Krause punched a handcuffed suspect in the face in the back of a squad car. In 2011, Milwaukee police Officer Richard Schoen did the same thing. Both incidents were captured on squad car video.
Krause was fired, convicted of a felony and served 18 months in prison.
Schoen ended up with a 60-day suspension and no criminal charges. »Read Full Article(15)
Wisconsin youth smoking drops to all-time low

State's Christmas tree growers feel impact of drought
Pewaukee - Inhaling the heady aroma of fresh-cut evergreens, Ken Ottman walked through his crop of firs, pines and balsams on his busy Christmas tree lot and admired the survivors.
Every single seedling he planted this year - 5,000 trees - and a third of all the trees he planted last year and the year before died, victims of this past summer's drought.
His adult trees shed more needles than usual, and when it came time to harvest evergreens destined for living rooms in southeastern Wisconsin, he felled fewer trees and left behind some that normally would have been cut down this year but looked too sparse. He also bought trees from northern Wisconsin wholesalers to sell at his lot. »Read Full Article(1)

'Not walking away:' Johnson Controls still interested in buying A123
The process of selling a bankrupt Massachusetts battery technology firm is not over, and Johnson Controls remains interested, the president of the company's power solutions business said Monday.

Dover, Tippecanoe may merge programs
It's a proposal most people in Milwaukee Public Schools circles expected sooner or later: a plan to create a single south-side school out of the Dover and Tippecanoe programs.
A Milwaukee School Board committee is slated to take up that proposal at a meeting Tuesday.
The schools currently operate as two separate entities at the same site: the old Fritsche Middle School building at 2969 S. Howell Ave. Both Bay View-based schools were consolidated there as part of a controversial plan the board approved in the fall of 2010, and which took effect in 2011-'12. »Read Full Blog Post(7)

Haggerty Museum hires Emilia Layden as curator
Emilia P. Layden has been appointed associate curator at the Haggerty Museum of Art at Marquette University. Layden, who has been serving as interim associate curator since July, has organized a current exhibit from the museum's permanent photography collection called "Freedom Of/For/To" and an upcoming show, "Read Between the Lines: Enrique Chagoya's Codex Prints."
Layden was programming and exhibitions manager at Art Chicago and Next, annual art fairs in Chicago, where she ran education programs such as "Converge: Contemporary Curators Forum" and recurring exhibition series called "New Insight" and "Parisan."
Before working for the art fairs, she held posts at the Smart Museum of Art at the University of Chicago and at the Art Institute of Chicago, where she provided curatorial and research support.
Layden got her master's degree in art history from the University of Chicago with an emphasis on postwar American art, and she got her bachelor's degree in English and philosophy, with a minor in art history, at Boston College.
"Emilia is an interdisciplinary thinker and is well equipped to work collaboratively with our staff and the Marquette University faculty to create exhibitions that are relevant and responsive to the existing curriculum and the wider arts community," said Wally Mason, the museum's director and chief curator in a statement.
Layden succeeds Annemarie Sawkins, a longtime associate curator, who left the Haggerty in the summer after about 13 years in the post.

Racine County replaces jail guards with civilian officers
Racine - Racine County will soon staff its jail entirely with civilian personnel at an estimated $100,000 in annual savings.
The county jail was once staffed by sworn sergeants, with a beginning annual salary of about $75,000. Like other big Wisconsin counties, Racine County looked for ways to save money and began to replace the sworn officers with civilian sergeants, whose starting pay is about $37,000.
Beginning in 2013, all nine sergeants at the jail will be civilians, whose training is focused on a corrections environment. The Journal Times says two sworn lieutenants and one sworn captain will oversee the sergeants. (5)

A plan to renovate Cathedral Square and Juneau Park, and pay for that work with a new fee on properties on downtown Milwaukee's east side, was delayed Monday by a Common Council committee.

Start-up launches website for recovering addicts
A Milwaukee start-up founded by a recovering alcoholic said Monday it has launched its 12-step recovery tools website.
Brighter12.com is a subscription-based service that was designed to serve people recovering from addictions with alcohol, drugs, gambling, intimacy or codependency. It offers journaling, work pages, daily affirmations and other tools for tracking and supporting a move through the 12 steps to recovery in an anonymous setting.
"When I worked on my own recovery, I discovered that there aren't any interactive tools for the 12 Steps," said Cindy Rahm, Brighter12's founder and chief executive officer.
The 12-step program, a set of guiding principals that outline a course of action for recovery, was originally proposed by Alcoholics Anonymous in the 1930s. Brighter 12 is housed in the Hudson Business Lounge. (5)
West Allis police officer injured in arrest attempt
A West Allis police officer was injured early Monday when attempting to arrest a 30-year-old man outside a residence near the intersection of S. 105th St. and W. Rogers St.
The man punched the officer's face, and caused a laceration that required stitches as part of medical treatment, Acting Chief Charles Padgett said.
Police were called to the residence at 3:25 a.m. Monday on a report of a suspicious person outside the home, Padgett said.
Officers determined the man was wanted on a previous incident. He became combative and resisted arrest. Several officers were needed to subdue the suspect. (4)

The company, Companhia Caetano Branco, employs 150 people in Brazil. Its products include generators, water pumps and light construction equipment sold through a network of 1,200 dealerships.
Briggs said it used cash to pay for the company and said the acquisition is not anticipated to have a significant effect on sales and earnings in fiscal 2013.
Based in Wauwatosa, Briggs makes gasoline engines for outdoor power equipment, portable generators and Simplicity mowers.
State warns public against tax-preparation scams
Last year, several residents said a Milwaukee tax preparer scammed them out of hundreds of dollars in tax refunds by promising them a holiday loan.
This year, state officials hope to get a leg up on such schemes by asking people to report questionable or suspicious activities even before tax season starts.
"I understand this is early to be thinking about tax preparation, but this is when people were harmed last year. We hope people pay attention because we don't want them to be targets for these crooks," Sandy Chalmers, director of the division of trade and consumer protection under the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection, told the Journal Sentinel. »Read Full Article(8)

Milwaukee sets record for no-snow days
Milwaukee set a record Sunday for consecutive days without snow, at 280, and the snowless streak might be extended a few days, the National Weather Service said.
There was no measurable snow Monday morning at Mitchell International Airport, said Ed Townsend, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Sullivan. Flurries are forecast Monday afternoon but Townsend does not expect snow to accumulate to a measurable amount of 0.1 inch or more at the airport.
The airport is Milwaukee's official location for weather recordkeeping.
If Townsend's forecast holds, Milwaukee's snowless streak could last a few more days. No precipitation is forecast in Milwaukee Tuesday and Wednesday, he said. (7)

The former Kmart shopping center on Bowman Road will get a major overhaul. Developers hope to bring in two major chain anchors and rename the center Bowman Place.
After 35 years, Kmart closed its doors earlier this year.
Design plans submitted to the Town of Mount Pleasant reveal a new facade and a restructuring of the shopping center's five parcels.
Because the developer is not making more than 50-percent improvement, the project will not go through traditional planning boards and commissions.
In addition, the plan calls for extensive landscaping improvements and lighting.
It had been reported that Nordstrom Rack would be one of those major chains to take up residence, however, Naomi Tobis of Nordstrom Corporate Affairs told the Moultrie News that they are looking at potential locations for additional Rack stores in South Carolina but have no deal to share at this time.
"However, our first two Nordstrom Rack stores will open in Greenville, October 9, and Columbia, October 30, this coming fall," she said.
In addition, Donna Patterson, property manager for Grove Property Fund LLC said, "Our company policy is not to be interviewed by the press, but we can provide accurate background information.
Unfortunately, things are not at the point on our end where we can confirm the final re-development plan for the old Kmart property. Feel free to check back in a couple of months."
Dick's Sporting Goods was also previously reported as part of the plan in a slightly larger parcel on the property.
Representatives from Dick's Sporting Goods corporate headquarters have not returned requests for comments.
The site design renderings do not include an indication of tenants of the other three parcels.
Daniel Island-based Grove Property Fund LLC, owners of the 131,000-square-foot shopping center, plan to partially demolish and redesign the center with updated storefronts and landscaping, according to the submitted documents.

Rated 4.5 out of 5Â by 8 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5Â by dallasdiva Psycho short, thin material These look so, so cute on the model... Not so much IRL. I tried a size up and two sizes up from my typical FP size. somewhere in between would've been ideal in terms of getting a fit like the model. I'm guessing she's a 0 or a 2 wearing a 4? Gee golly FP, how many times am I going to say, "Tell us what size the model is, and tell us what size she is wearing!" Okay, so size up 1-2 sizes if you get this. But I wouldn't get it. The material is thin and flimsy, soft, but thin and flimsy. Additionally, the shorts are obscenely short. I love me some hot pants with tights, but these were too much. Even if my legs were psycho toned, I wouldn't do it. I'm just not that comfortable showing that much skin. The inseam might have been half an inch on the size 8. 1.31.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Changmiridiri Cute but the straps..... I got it and went "Yippee" because it's my first ever Free People piece and it is so cute haha. Although I will probably have to get in better shape if I want to wear it like the model haha. However, the front strap and buckle (?) to secure the shoulder straps are not reliable. I will probably have use safety pins to keep the straps from unlinking and causing any publing indecency the front might cause.... 2.6.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by meghanashley Size Up but SO CUTE I read all the reviews before ordering that I should size up. Normally I am a size 2-4 in Free People clothes, and I have been looking at these for a long time now BUT the only size left was 12. I went ahead and ordered the 12 (nearly 10 sizes up) and planned to have them altered to fit because I loved them so much. Guess what, they just arrived and the size 12 isn't big at all, it fits like a regular size 6 would! I don't know if I will need to take them in much at all, it is a looser-looking fit than the model but not bad at all. Pattern is so cute and with the larger size, the shorts are not too short at all. So happy! 1.24.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by kryn great piece! definitely a summer buy. I had been looking for a pair of overalls for so long and finally found one's with a unique quality. The material is thin but it works perfectly for summer or layering with long sleeves underneath. they do run small, i ordered mine 2 sizes up and it fits with just the right bagginess. I did find the shorts to be extra short, but it was an easy fix to undo the stitching that gives the shorts a rolled up look and it gave another 2 inches or so on the leg. It was a quick and easy fix and they still look just as good as i bought them! 10.26.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Arnie So Cute These overalls are soo cute, I ordered 2 sizes up and they fit a little bit baggier than the model. The material is soft and lightweight which is ideal for summer. For reference I am 5' 10" and 115lbs, I usually wear a 2 but got the 6. 10.11.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by cesfilles Fabulously short I got these 1-2 sizes larger than I usually would have. They're still short, but I can handle it. I love the color and pattern, they're thin and therefore ideal for warm weather. Besides running short, they're absolutely perfect. 10.7.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by KimBerrie Comfy & Cute Although the fabric is thin like another review stated, I found that it wasn't too much of a problem because I would only wear these during the summer, where a lightweight fabric is ideal for the humidity in New York. The pattern is super cute, and it's such a unique piece. As for the fitting, it runs a little bit small. I normally wear a size 0 or 2, but both were too tight on me. The problem was the length. I found it uncomfortable to lift my arms up because it felt like I was going to tear the shortalls, so I just opted for a size 4. Although a teeny bit loose around my hips, it's barely noticeable and absolutely fine. Another problem I had was pairing these shortalls with something. I have no idea what shirt to wear under it and I've had these for about a year. I guess I'll figure it out along the way! 9.27.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Xiaoxiao So close to perfectIon Again I have to complain about FP sizing for bottoms. I ordered size 0 givin my recent experience of FP purchase of jeans (they run big on me) -but this baby turned out to be small. So I guess it's a little on the tight side as always. Other than this issue I would say these overall shorts are the best I have ever had! Comfy cute and fun! Can't wait for spring! 12.26.2011

"There is a great difference between nominal Christianity and real Christianity, and this is generally seen in the failure of the one and the continuance of the other." Charles Spurgeon I thank you all for demonstrating what I had only read as other peoples opinions of "The Tent" and it's membership. I quite simply did not quite believe it and so I had to join and read it for myself. I found it's all true. It's extraordinary that a people who cling to the notion of "universal repentance" , gleaned from dissecting the KJV they decimate with criticisms while arguing their philosophy is derived from interpreting to their liking what otherwise is condemned in it's traditional scripture. Elective salvation. The only problem is, what are you being saved from? Agape love some here claim is what God is. And yet they believe in Jesus. And they believe Jesus doesn't save them from Hell, but rather saves them from themselves. Whom Agape love God created to be exactly as is. It's a conundrum that is untenable in the realm of rational criticism and basic logic. And yet for many here, it's livable. What is fascinating however, and what gives the greatest testimony of a philosophy like that is what the person who cleaves to it becomes in the process. To believe in 'universal repentence' while collectively treating any one member of choice like garbage because they dare not to 'baahhhhh' like others in the herd, says it all. You believe you are saved from God. Period! No matter how you cut it you believe what you are by birth needed to be redeemed in faith it can get better because what you are by nature needs to be saved ! But what you are, when you believe in God, is exactly what God created you to be. There is nothing so tragic as to witness a rational intellect compromise itself willingly by cleaving to a slave mentality that is faith in a God created in one's own image and likeness. The Universalism this site professes to be credible by scripture is demonstrated by it's membership to be a rewriting of the scripture to something they can choose to live with because they still can't handle simply being human. And lack of belief in hell isn't evolution out of monotheistic ET. Of course hell is a myth. But so too is God. What you accept as true in the faith it's worth living as if your soul depends on it after you die is reflected in how you treat other people while wearing the label, "Universalist Christian". It's the new elitist exclusivist cult ideal. How you treat people here that aren't part of your clique' shows every visitor watching, and those new members, exactly what your faith has done for and to you. I thank you all for proving what one finds in a search of the keywords; "Tent Maker" provides. Matthew 25:40. I doubt you'll read that verbatim. It'll probably be interpreted according to your "universalist" needs. Because you certainly don't live it verbatim by example here. "Universalism as an ideal is as old as nay, is probably much more ancient than the Christian ideal." Arthur Keith "Nowhere is Universalism welcomed and encouraged by a people; everywhere governments have forced and are forcing Universalism upon unwilling and resistant subjects. "Arthur Keith "Civilization, we shall find, like Universalism and Christianity, is anti evolutionary in its effects; it works against the laws and conditions which regulated the earlier stages of man's ascent. "Arthur Keith
Thanks for the support Lo.For the membership who has come under attack, and for any passing through;we're not running a popularity contest. We're attempting to be true to the Savior's call. And while that indeed does include love, being long-suffering, turning the other cheek (personally), it excludes an "anything goes" mentality or an endorsement of "trampling the cross and not following Him". That may indeed offend some, but efforts are made to engage and be kind to one another before such actions as banning occur.

HOUSTON -- Jack Pardee, one of Bear Bryant's "Junction Boys" at Texas A&M who went on to become an All-Pro linebacker and an NFL coach, is being remembered as a teacher, and a loving father and husband.
Pardee died of cancer last Monday at 76. On Monday, he was memorialized at a service in Houston attended by hundreds of people, including former teammates, players and fellow coaches.
His son Ted says his three loves were, "God, family and football."
Andre Ware won the Heisman Trophy in 1989 at Houston by leading Pardee's "run-and shoot" offense. He fought back tears after the funeral as he recalled a man he thought of as a father figure. Ware said Pardee always cared about him as a person, not just a football player.

Cardinals quarterback ends up on Craigslist
Apparently struggles at the quarterback position are ripe for comedic fodder.
And poor spelling.
An ad was placed on Craigslist with the title "Arizona Cardinal Quarterback - $1".
Someone is trying to basically give John Skelton away.
Dubbed a "slightly used quarterback", the listing says Skelton "can not seem to look away from entended receiver" and "has movement skills of an out of balanced washing machine".
The ad says they will gladly trade Skelton for Detroit rookie and former Boise State star Kellen Moore -- or any other winning quarterback.
It also states responses to the ad should be sent to the Arizona Cardinals.

Welcome to ALL MEDIA PHOTO CHALLENGE #40 - February
Challenge: Create artwork based on any or all of these
photos and themes. Use any medium and any style. Stick to the photo(s) exactly
or just use them as a starting point - feel free to change colors, composition,
add or subtract elements or take a complete departure. In other words, HAVE FUN
and keep painting!
I just couldn't decide so here are a lot of photos to
choose from. Most
pictures are taken by me or by my husband unless otherwise marked. If you want
items photographed in different angles or single items photographed, just ask. But please ask my permission if you are not
affiliated with Artist Daily or are not a part of the Monthly
Challenges... thank you.
This month
theme: Home is where you lay you heart.
Anything that makes your home special qualifies!
Target Posting Date:
February 1, 2014 -February 28, 2014
Be sure to post your work here in this thread so our
challenges won't get confused with each other.
The home where I laid my heart was underwater 201
Million years ago and creatures like the Nautilus pompilius lived here.
Evidence we found in our yard.
Celtic tribes settled here too. And the river Altmühl
was called Alcmona (slow water).
the romans came and build the Limes, a border that divided the Roman Empire
from the Barbarian tribes.
In the Middle Ages a lot of castles were built through
the valley. My home is my castle. No, this is not my house.
In the late Baroque period this church was decorated
with fresco painting by the Asam brothers. This one is the only one they
did on a flat ceiling. Its magnificence is that if you stand on one spot in the
church all the pillars are straight, and then as you move through the church, the
perspective of everything changes.
But your or my house is more than a pretty place to
stay. It protects us from the Elements. A few of us had to deal with intense
weather conditions, like floods, storms and freezing temperatures.
After the storm

Fire keeps our houses warm, too.
In the old days.
And the new days
even more important than a protective house are friends and family. That's
where you lay your heart. Happy Valentines day.
Gingerbread heart, my
oldest son got from his girlfriend.
Flowers for your valentine.

Karen, we must have posted at the same time, so thank you to you ,too.
I hope my first post answers your question
But late posts are always welcome!
Hello Susan, thank you for your kind words. I do hope we will see your pool scene here this month!!!
Hello Claudia,
I did respond yesterday but my PC is playing up at the moment as you well know!!!
I echo what everyone else has said about the ref. photos....terrific selection...so thank you for going to so much trouble to inspire us.
feel free to make constructive c/c...no digital alterations please
Hello Claudia.........
A red/yellow rose for you, painted last year! Water colour this time.
Sarah,Thank you for the beautiful rose. The colours of the rose combined with the dark background let it stand out and made me want to grap it and put it in vase.
I will print it out and put it on my fridge instead. I don't need to water it then.
Claudia...Wow! These great challenge photos! So many to choose from too!
Sarah...What a beautiful rose!! How the heck do you get the background so even and dark using watercolors? When I try that it looks horrible.
Catherine Brown
C&C's are welcome.
(No digital alterations please)
Hello Cathy,...........I built it up with glazes..the background colour is painted almost as dark as I want it to be as soon as possible, .takes time but if you could see the original you would just be able to make out purples/dark blues and bronze splodges. The board I work on is placed levelly, the background area is dampened I drop in the colours and let them mingle.. Let it dry thoroughly each time before adding another layer (let it dry naturally, if you use a hair dryer it will leave a rim or cauliflowers). I think you just have to take the plunge and remember that watercolour dries much lighter than you expect it to...and you can lift off areas that you don't like! The colours I use are transparent which are easier to 'lift'. The paper I use is almost like cardboard.
Hope this is useful.

Plain Old Google Search
I was complaining earlier that Google homepage has too many links. Cristian Mezei found the perfect solution - a Google page that has:
* no links for Images, Maps, Groups, News, Video
* no links for account settings, account history
* no ads
* no Google Oneboxes
* no spelling suggestions
* no related queries
* no number of results
* no definitions
* no cached links
* no advanced search, preferences
* no tracking: the URLs of the search results are direct links, not redirects
Just plain old Google. Don't be fooled by the "Search our site" buttons or "Searched About Google pages for..." message. This page searches the entire web, but it was meant to search only the google.com domain.
Here is the secret link: Plain Old Google. Or just add &output=googleabout at the end of any Google search URL.

I love this recipe. Even my vegetable averse teenager declared it "really good!" The only change I made was to use fresh marjoram and half the recommended balsamic.
Balsamic & Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
From EatingWell: January/February 2008
Roasting isn't usually the first cooking method you think of for cauliflower but the results are quite delicious. The florets are cut into thick slices and tossed with extra-virgin olive oil and herbs. Wherever the flat surfaces come into contact with the hot roasting pan, a deep browning occurs that results in a sweet, nutty flavor.
108 Reviews for Balsamic & Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
I've made this twice now and my kids (ages 17 & 19) keep begging me to make it again and again. I leave out the balsamic and just drizzle it on top when serving and the flavor just explodes in your mouth. Even my husband, who is a self-professed Cauliflower hater said it's a KEEPER!
Thanks for a great, simple and "bring the family back to the table" side dish!
I'm an experienced cook and followed the recipe exactly. I was disappointed that the cauliflower never got the golden top that I expected. So I cooked it a bit longer since it was still very "wet" but the moisture never evaporated as mentioned in the recipe. Most of Eating Well's recipes are really good, but this one bombed for me.
Bought a couple of heads of cauliflower as a local produce discounter here in NJ, Produce Junction. Scanned the net for a new recipe to cook up a head and have for healthy dinner. This recipe, cooked exactly as shown, is definitely a keeper!! Try it, you'll like it!! CB

After withstanding its first summer on Isle of Palms, creators of the wave dissipation system say the wall is working according to plan.
"It's working great," said Deron Nettles, inventor of the dissipation wall protecting the Seascape Villas on Isle of Palms. "We saw the nor'easter come through earlier this summer. There's only a foot or two of the system exposed now. The system is such a small footprint and is allowing the beach's natural ebb and flow."
The 144-foot portable wall in place at the Wild Dunes resort is the second version of the system installed at the site and serves as an improved edition of its 88-foot trial predecessor.
Structures like seawalls have been banned under state beach management laws since 1988, but on June 6, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley signed bill S.1032 to "allow the use of pilot projects to address beach or dune erosion and to allow continued use of these projects under certain circumstances."
Nettles teamed up with Citadel engineering professor Tim Mays to tweak the system and collect results to verify its usefulness. The new wall is stronger, embedded up to 15 feet deep, while the original was closer to six. Nettles expects to release the summer's numerical results from the improved system later this week.
"First we confirm the structure hasn't been damaged and it hasn't," Mays said. "We use surveys to look at the volumes of sand in front of the structure, charts and plot graphs to analyze the data. I could not be happier with the results.
"We can actually see the beach is lower around the sandbags and quickly goes up to the other side of the structure."
The polyvinyl and polyethylene system is designed to break up the energy of storm waves that are causing the erosion while allowing water and fine sand to pass back through the wall.
The flow is intended to mimic that of a natural, unassisted beach. It also allows sand to slowly build behind the wall, another useful step in helping to preserve the eroding shores.
"Realistically, the beach will always need nourishment, but at times, that resource of sand isn't available for certain areas," Nettles said. "If the resource isn't available, you can install the system to protect the structure until it is. This isn't a permanent alternative, but a tool to work in conjunction with nourishment. And a better alternative than sandbags."
Following Hurricane Arthur and Tropical Storm Bertha that moved up the East Coast this summer, several of the sandbags that neighbor the dissipation system could be found empty, stuck in the sand and shoreline, while the dissipation system worked properly. Some who helped clean up the bags even placed them behind the dissipation wall, where they'd be protected from the ocean.
"I grew up on these beaches my whole life and I want to protect the area by whatever mean necessary," Nettles said. "It gets to the point, seeing these bags out there all the time, where it's pretty discouraging. That's one of the reasons I came up with the system."
The tip of Isle of Palms' extreme vulnerability to beach erosion made it an ideal test site for the system. Ocean and Coastal Resource Management is now encouraging the installation of the system in different areas to collect more data.
Nettles has begun marketing the system in target areas with erosion issues. Garden City, Pawleys Island and Daufuskie Island are among the possibilities. Nettles says one of the system's greatest features is its ability to conform to most any area's needs from the dunes to underwater.
"We're trying to allow homeowners in the state of South Carolina to have one more option to protect their properties," Nettles said.

McEachran, 20, has previously spent time on loan at Middlesbrough and Swansea and his third spell will be under the guidance of Chelsea legend Gianfranco Zola, the Hornets boss.
He is the second player in as many days to be sent out from Stamford Bridge on loan, with Nathaniel Chalobah - who had a hugely successful spell on loan at Vicarage Road last season - moving to Nottingham Forest on Thursday.
McEachran was a regular at Middlesbrough last season, making 38 appearances.
He made his Blues debut at the age of 17, coming on as a substitute in a Champions League win away at Zilina in 2010 and he has made seven starts and 15 appearances off the bench so far.
He has played in all England's age group teams from U17 through to the U21s, for whom he played 13 times.
