From holiday dinner table to emergency room
(NewsUSA) - Holiday gatherings are fraught with peril. The average Thanksgiving meal is 3,000 calories, according to the American Council on Exercise. Alcohol consumption is heavier than usual. Frantic travel agendas often result in forgetting to pack medications. A houseful of diverse personalities creates stress for the host family.
"Overindulging, traveling and the stress of entertaining have health consequences," said Niten Singh, MD, a member of the Society for Vascular Surgery. "After Thanksgiving dinner, hospital emergency rooms brim with overstuffed and over-served guests."
Heavy alcohol consumption can trigger a condition known as Holiday Heart Syndrome. This is an abnormal heart rhythm also referred to as atrial fibrillation. Persons who experience this condition have an increased risk of stroke.
Heart palpitations, dizziness, shortness of breath and chest discomfort are stroke symptoms. Often, stroke patients exhibit one or more of these risk factors:
* Blood pressure over 135/85
* Cigarette smoking
* Heavy alcohol consumption
* High cholesterol
* Diabetes
* Not exercising half hour daily
* High sodium (salt) diet
* Blood circulation problems
Strokes are the fourth leading cause of death in the U.S. -- 137,000 Americans died of stroke in 2010, according to the National Vital Statistics Report.
"We see a lot of stroke patients during the holiday season," said Dr. Singh. A 2004 study in the medical journal "Circulation" reported that there are 5 percent more heart-related deaths during the holiday season.
Daily exercise, a healthy diet, not smoking and a healthy body weight are proactive measures against vascular disease. Non-invasive tests can screen for vascular disease, and medications can help control it.
"The holidays are a perfect time to announce to family and friends your decision to cut back on calories, alcohol and cigarettes," said Dr. Singh. "Then, invite them to join you on a new holiday tradition -- after-dinner walks."
Additional vascular health information is available at VascularWeb.org.

Boston bombing suspect's hearing rescheduled again
BOSTON (AP) - A federal judge has rescheduled a probable cause hearing for surviving Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-HAHR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv).
U.S. Magistrate Judge Marianne Bowler on Thursday scheduled the hearing for July 10.
Bowler earlier this week granted a joint request from prosecutors and defense attorneys to postpone the hearing originally scheduled for May 30 until July 2. The lawyers say they need more time to obtain and review evidence.
The bombings near the finish line of the marathon killed three people and injured more than 260. Tsarnaev is charged with carrying out the April 15 attack with his brother, Tamerlan, who died four days later following a shootout with police.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is recovering from gunshot wounds at a federal prison hospital in central Massachusetts.

T-Mobile Team Women, Lynchburg, VA
When Kocis, 46, talks about the rigors of being a race mechanic, he sounds more like one of the adrenaline-junkie competitors he keeps on the road than a simple mechanic. "I like the stress," he says. "You have to be able to improvise and think on your feet, and if you screw up, you kill a guy's race." Though he has worked with athletes at all levels over 20 years of wrenching, Kocis considers his years with the U.S. Paralympic Cycling program to have been the most challenging--and most eye-opening. "Working with athletes whose bodies wouldn't function on a normal bike, I learned to be in tune with the cyclists to know why their bikes were set up the way they were. I couldn't just change something because it seemed odd to me--someone's saddle might be a few degrees off center, but maybe his body needed it that way."
His Hippocratic Oath: "The more you know about a rider, the better you can help him or her." A bike should be tailored to match the body, not the other way around. And it takes good mechanic-rider communication for the mechanic to know exactly what the cyclist wants--and needs.
Doctor's Orders
Raise the bar "A lot of road bike riders try for an aggressive racing position, with the bar 6-10cm below saddle height. But that stresses your back, neck and shoulders." Racers spend thousands of miles each season adjusting to that aggressive position. Try moving the bar closer to level with the saddle for a more comfortable ride. "As you put in more miles, you can move toward the more aerodynamic position."
Know your upper limit If you transport your bike on a roof rack, measure its height from the ground so you can check it against drive-through, parking-garage and bridge-warning signs. "Nothing kills a ride like a trashed fork and a damaged garage or drive-through." Hang the rack-lock key from your rearview mirror to remind you there's something on top.
Fix one flat, prevent the next "When you change a flat, don't forget to look inside the tire to find and clear away whatever caused the puncture."
Don Peterson: The Chief of Surgery
All About Bikes, Chesapeake, VA
Peterson, 42, is a testament to the power of late bloomers. He didn't begin his professional life as a bike mechanic until he was 26. When the last of his children started school, he decided to use some of his newfound time to become an expert at a hobby he'd always enjoyed--fixing his own bike. His avocation morphed into a new vocation, and Peterson eventually found himself running a shop, then opened his own, where he still makes time to get his hands greasy. He believes mechanics should deal with people as well as with bikes, a concept that's evident in the design of his shop. "We don't have a separate mechanics' area--there's just a 4-foot wall between them and the store, so the mechanics talk to customers while working."
His Hippocratic Oath: "To work on a bike you need patience. I test new mechanics by giving them a piece of junk to work on. I gave one guy an old tandem with a chain-derail issue, and he lost his cool five minutes into it. He's no longer here."
Doctor's Orders
Use the right lube "Keep your chain lubed with the proper lubricant for your area. If you ride in Seattle, for example, you want a lube that will stay on in the rain. If you live near the beach, you want a dry lube so sand won't stick to it." To find the lube for you, go to a local bike shop and find out what its staff uses.
Tighten your pedals for a quiet ride "People don't tighten their pedals often enough. It's a common cause of creaks and squeaks. Pedal wrenches exist for a reason."
Don't forget to pack "You should always bring at least a spare tube, a multi-tool and everything you need to change a flat. If you get in trouble, it's okay if you don't know how to fix the problem; someone in your group will help you. But not having any equipment tells them you're irresponsible."

Hopefully this isn't a preview of things to come. and hopefully Blizzard will figure out a fair way to get these tickets out (because right now, the site certainly isn't working). Expect more updates to this post as the process goes along.
Update: Seems like a lot of people are making it to the credit card verification screen before things go bad, so it seems (seems) the fault may be with the credit card approvals, not necessarily Blizzard's site. Also, one big change from last year is that not only do you specify your WoW character during checkout, but they ask you to say your favorite Blizzard franchise, as well.
Update 2: Alex here, seems the entire site is FUBAR pretty much. Definitely not a credit card thing. It won't even let me shop for books to add onto my order.
We're liveblogging our quest for BlizzCon tickets -- lots more updates after the jump.
10:52am: Alex got this great error message. "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete." Sad. And yet true.
11:08am: Blizzard's website, blizzard.com, is completely down. Whether that's because it's offline purposely (Blizzard employees reportedly showed up at their officers at 8am their time, a few minutes ago), or because it's completely b0rked, we don't know.
11:16am: At least we can all commiserate together. From commenter Boven (thanks!):
11:19am: Store's back online.
11:31am: And it's back down again. Probably safe to say that at least one of these outages is caused by all the traffic.
11:32am: Blizzard is aware of the problems and working on it. In the meantime they say that Billing and Account Services and the In-game Support departments are not the way to go on this one -- neither of them will be helping with ticket issues.
12:01pm: Just for the heck of it (and because we're suckers for punishment), we just called the Blizzard Store sales line, and what you might expect happened: we got nothing but beeping. We haven't heard from anyone yet who's actually been able to buy a ticket this morning. Have any of you?
12:05pm: You know how when you see a word a lot, it starts not making sense? That's happening for us with "an error has occurred."
12:57pm: Despite our repeated clicking, the Failoc still isn't letting us past. The farthest we've gotten so far is C. At this rate, looks like Mike Morhaime and Jay Mohr will be the only two people at BlizzCon '08. (Note: That was a joke. Jay Mohr probably won't be hosting again.)
1:51pm: The good news is that Blizzard confirms that no tickets have been sold yet. So you're not the only one frustrated and angry that you can't secure your spot at BlizzCon. We await further updates from them -- the sites are going up and down now, with people seeing all kinds of things, from Failocs to regular error messages, from XML errors to even 404 Apache server pages. But as Blizzard has said, no tickets have been sold yet at all, so nobody panic.
2:22pm: This, from Cilos on Silver Hand:
And our own Michael Gray writes a haiku:
Oh, the fail Murloc:
You innocent harbinger
of Blizzard's errors.
4:38pm: Failoc is back. Never thought I'd be so happy to see him, as the past few hours have given us only the maintenance SCV.
4:48pm: So close! We're seeing a few "working" reports come in, but all we're getting is timeouts so far.
8:30pm: Oh yes, we're still here and still refreshing. Blizzard has updated their main BlizzCon site, saying that everything should be working fine now, but that's still not the case for us -- Failoc keeps showing up long before we can get confirmation. Hopefully we'll make it through one of these times, and hopefully we'll see you there at BlizzCon. In the meantime, epic fail, Blizzard. Epic fail.
9:42pm: Blizzard took the store down again, and the maintenance SCV is back. We just ordered takeout -- it's gonna be a long night.
12:05am: This is Daniel. I managed to get through. I have a ticket!
1:00am: Blizzard's decided to bring down the store for the night and resume ticket sales tomorrow. They assure us that there's still plenty of tickets for sale though.

Invisibly smooth and seamlessly comfy, this bebe panty is undetectable under figure-hugging clothes. The result? 100% sexy.
- 88% nylon, 12% spandex
- Hand wash
- Imported
Devi Seamless Thong 2 2
No Panty Lines I'm very happy with this thong. I've had one of these about a month and have worn it several times. It's very comfortable, and it does not show at all under my tighter skirts. I wish it were just a little wider in the front and a little narrower in the back, though. November 29, 2013
DISAPPOINTING Do not buy! I love bebe but these thongs are cheaply made. I wore them only once and when i washed them they started falling apart. They were washed with other undergarments and they were the only ones that started falling apart. I DO NOT RECOMMEND. You will be greatly disappointed if you do purchase this item. September 20, 2013

Just across the street, get down with rootsy rock and brass at d.b.a. and at the corner, grunge out at Check Point Charlie's, a serious rock 'n' roll dive where you can also do your laundry. A few doors up, you might catch some excellent funk at Blue Nile with Big Sam's Funky Nation, and support local talent at the Apple Barrel Inn. Hungry? Frenchmen is also a great spot for cheap ethnic eats, like Italian at Adolfo's and Middle Eastern from Mona's, along with assorted food trucks that keep things cooking.

Newbies, Post in Welcome Central to open up the boards
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
I may be wrong but that's my current understanding.
You write about believers. But what about for example a muslim?
I accept LS' interpretation as a possible truth, since this passage is pretty much the only one in the Bible which seems to indicate salvation by works could be possible. And, to my understanding once you've heard the Gospel you've got to have faith. So, who else could be saved by works than an unbeliever who never heard of Jesus?
And to make things even more complicated, there's a third way of interpreting Matt 25. According to some, it's not a judgement of individuals at all, but a judgement of nations as whole. Sheep nations, those who were Israel's friends during the Tribulation enter "life eonian" but goat nations, Israel's enemies (and those who did not support her at all) enter "chastening eonian".

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.---Chattanooga Mocs Head Basketball Coach Will Wade announces former UTC great Johnny Taylor's (1996-97) addition to his staff as a student assistant in 2013-14. Taylor is returning to Chattanooga to complete his degree after a 15-year professional basketball career.
"The chance to enhance our program by adding Johnny to our staff as a daily reminder of Chattanooga's rich tradition is beneficial for everyone involved," Wade said. "Chattanooga Basketball is a family, and I am thrilled to be able to help Johnny achieve his dreams while adding another role model for our current players. This is a win-win for Johnny, the city of Chattanooga and our program."
Taylor has 26 hours remaining to complete his degree in Criminal Justice. He played two seasons for the Mocs leading the most successful team in school history. His 1997 squad made the Sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament defeating Georgia (73-70) and Illinois (75-63) before losing by six to Providence (71-65).
"It's an amazing opportunity," Taylor stated. "I am excited beyond words and very thankful to be able to finish my degree and get my foot in the door in the coaching profession. I'm speechless really.
"I'm very appreciative of Coach Wade bringing me back and giving me the chance to be a part of it all."
The 6-9 forward, who is a native of Chattanooga and prepped at Howard High School, led the Mocs to a 24-11 record, SoCon South Division Championship, SoCon Tourney Title and the epic Sweet 16 run. He helped turn around a season that began with a 5-7 start. After a disappointing loss to Canisius in the Dr Pepper Classic Championship game, UTC won 11 straight. It closed the season winning seven in a row before losing to Providence in the Sweet 16.
That's highlight reel material for any former Moc, but Taylor took it a step further. He became Chattanooga's first student-athlete to get drafted in the first round of a professional draft. He was the 17th pick of the 1997 NBA Draft going to the Orlando Magic.
Click the video links for a look into that special night for Johnny as well as one for career highlights. He is one of 12 SoCon student-athletes to be drafted in the first round in the long history of the league. In the modern era, he is one of three (Taylor, Kevin Martin, WCU, 2004, Stephen Curry, Davidson, 2009).
Taylor played four seasons in the NBA before going overseas to ply his craft. He played 11 more overseas with stops in Italy, Spain and Russia among others concluding in Bahrain in 2012.
For his career at UTC, Taylor scored 1,070 points which is 15th in the DI era (1978-present) and third among two-year players behind Derrick Kirce (1,113, 1990-91) and Stephen McDowell (1,075, 2008-09). He owns the fourth-best scoring average at 17.3 points per game.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- University of Tennessee at Chattanooga cross country and track and field head coach Bill Gautier feels the 2013-14 signing class could be his best yet. That says a lot from the 13-time Southern Conference Coach of the Year.
The strong tradition in distance running and academic success will continue as all of the new Lady Mocs boast superior athletic as well as academic accomplishments.
The signing class includes five multiple all-state performers, eight multi school record holders and high academic achievers with an average ACT score of 26.5 and an average GPA of 3.76.
Hannah Chamblin, a six-time all-state performer for St. Agnes Academy in Memphis, won three state titles as a member of the 4x800 meter team. She was named all-state in the 800 meter with a runner-up finish and twice placed fifth. In cross country, Chamblin has three top 20 finishes placing 18th twice and 19th once.
Maddison Melchionna of Chucky-Doak High School in Afton, Tenn., finished runner-up in the 800 meter and the 1600 meter runs as well as a third place finish in the 1600 meter over her career. She also posted an all-state performance in cross country with a 13th place finish in the three-mile event while finishing 19th in the prestigious Footlocker Invitational.
Molly Smith helped lead her Dobyns-Bennett High School team to a state runner-up title. Over her career she earned all-state honors with a third place finish in the 800m and as a member of the 4x800 meter relay team while also placing fourth in the 800m and the 4x400 meter team.
Madalyn Garland of Rhea County High School was a 2010 Chattanooga Times Free Press "Best of Preps". With a time of 19:36, she was named all-state in cross country. She was a multi-state qualifier in track and field running the 1600 and 3200 meters.
Chandler Rogers is a two-time state qualifier for Lenoir City (TN) High School in track. She claimed the 800 meter title at the Vol Classic Track Meet and was an all-region performer in cross country, earning a spot in the state finals.

what are these weak freaking calls on Gasol? he is getting little bumps and just gets these calls. Cmon refs

This lineup COULD work...if you replaced Brewer with J-ham...a guy who can actually score..
Nobody out there can score..
Well, the refs just bailed Gasol out, poor call. Miller doesnt get free throws but I bet Gasol does.
Iggy CANNOT create a shot for himself. Do ya'll notice every shot he takes is more than contested. On paper Iggy sounds like a better player, but in actuality AAA is better. As Skip Bayless would say use the eye test.
good move McGee.

mcgee onlly has 11 min????????????????????
J-ham out there?? Wow, that's impressive..
koufos poor hands there..
wow, McGee. Nice shot there.
nice!!!! How does Mcgee have such low minutes???
I am REALLY liking the Koufos/McGee combo out there guys. They compliment each other very well.
What scares me about Iggy is he has to work so hard for his shots he can't get any separation from the defender. On a positive note Brewer just hit a three
He better keep McGee in here in the fourth

Internet Explorer 8 has been released today and there are many reasons to download it if you use a previous version of IE. Microsoft has finally released a standard-compliant browser, tabs run in separate processes, the annoying modal dialog for finding words in web pages has been replaced with a less intrusive bar, the search box includes suggestions, the browser is faster and more polished.
Speaking of search suggestions, Google tests two features that could save a few clicks: displaying the top result for navigation queries, which usually have a single best answer, and showing ads related to the query at the bottom of the list of suggestions. I don't see the two features, but Sterling, a reader of this blog, spotted them while testing IE8.
Google also tests enabling search suggestions in Image Search:
In other news, Google Maps Germany added a questionable feature that shows suggestions when you start to enter a location, after being tested in Google Maps China. If you are logged in, the first suggestions are from your list of saved locations.
{ Thanks, Sterling and Luke. }

A sure sign that you are in an old, dying paradigm/mindset, is when you are scared of new ideas and new technology. Don't feel bad. The world is moving on without you, and you are welcome to yell "Get Off My Lawn!" all you want while it happens. You cannot, however, stop an idea whose time has come.

Yes, that's just it. Eventually there will be another interesting product that has tons of momentum on its side. And that will make massive marketing expenditures profitable.
Most games would have a much larger playerbase if they had WoW's marketing budget. Probably not WoW-style numbers, but a lot more than they have now. The problem is that spending $200 million on marketing to get $100 million in revenue isn't profitable, so they don't.

And MMO changes. If WOW is successful, and it is no longer strictly a MMO .. may be other MMOs should be chnaged to non-MMOs.
In fact, the success of LOL and WOT shows that you can do online game differently (now that is innovation), and be very successful. May be MMO should take what they are doing well (like instanced dungeons) and get rid of what they are not doing well (like having a world no one is using).

I don't know. There are many other MMO's that have attracted such a wide-spread fanbase. Sure, other games might have the occassional jock, chick, middleschooler, highschooler, nerd, grandma,etc, but WoW took it quite a bit further.
In a way, I think WoW benefited from the mid-200's gaming scene, where you have all kinds of non-gamers getting into the mix. The Wii, the Rockband/Guitair Hero games, and WoW made up a kind of Holy Trinity for casual gamers. I think they've since moved on to Facebook, phones, and tablets though, for the most part.
Originally posted by Quizzical
Agreed, but the worthy game has to come first. All we've been seeing for years is regurgitated MMO concepts.
I think the next big MMO could very likely be browser based and be designed for Facebook. Those of us here on this website will decry it as garbage, but it will be popular nonetheless. That's another thing to take into account. There was no (or very little) social media and social media gaming while WoW was on fire. Things have changed across the entertainment spectra.

I never say never but this is exactly right. Current MMORPG players are spread out in 100s of games and the number of MMOs is getting larger by the day. When WOW was attracting players by the bucketload there were what? 10 MMOs to choose from?
For a phenomenom like WOW to happen again there will either have to be a huge influx of new players who don't already have favorite MMOs or a mass closing of the MMOs that currently exists--specially the ones with large bases...the ones that are profitable.
If you have a really profitable coffee shop on a busy corner, opening a second one accross the street might increase the total volume of customers a tiny bit (the people who hate crossing streets :) ) but more or less, they'd just split the number of customers the first one had to begin with. They might increase the total number of customers if in addition to coffee they started selling cell phones and TVs...but it wouldn't be just a coffee shop any longer would it?

I disagree. WoW at its peak had what? 13 million? Im asking because depending who you ask these numbers are different. Lets say WoW had 15 million at its peak. On one platform that is incredible. Imagine a couple different scenarios that MMO's have yet to make a worthy attempt at really.
Consoles - Xbox Live and Playstation Plus prove console players are willing to pay extra for online gaming. If a company made a serious effort to bring an AAA MMO to either of these consoles let alone if they had the technology to make a game that ran on all three platforms together(ps3/xobox/pc) it would destroy 15 million monthly users. Hell look at the numbers some of the best console games pull in. Black Ops 2 just shattered games sales. With its map packs it proves also again console gamers will pay for bonus content. if i company said "We wanna charge you $15 per month(general cost of mmo's monthly) and we will guarentee additional content regularly for that fee people would be all over it.
Social network/browser based gaming - Another area where mmo's havent even begin to tap into its player base. Zynga's Farmville had 18+ million monthly users at one point(no clue what it peaked at.This is just a published number i know of). Many of those users pay extra month for items in its game. If a decent mmo came along that adapted to Social gaming it would have millions of monthly users. It couldnt cost nearly as much to creat as AAA pc titles that cost upwards of half a billion to make.
A game just released with 15 million monthly users? A company with 344 million monthly users active? People will say "Social games dont count" or "Farmville sucks" but honestly with numbers like this im surprised they havent already tried to tap into this fan base. An mmo would surely work on social networks not that any true gamers would wanna play it.
Maybe if we are talking pc games you are right but gaming as a whole has plenty of area's yet it hasnt even really attempted to make a splash in.

Yuck. You got that right.
What I hear you saying is that its possible to have more than 13 million people actively engaged in the same online game and this is true... but we're talking about the type of game that demands a lot more time and commitment than the average farmville player is willing to devote to gaming...unless you go with a revisionist definition of MMORPG that contemplates people playing a very dumbed-down version, alone, in 15 minute spurts ... oh wait, those already exist and have their own forum here... never mind

I wouldn't be surprised at all, specially since my son has been programming casual games in a thriving casual games company for the past 6 years. But in his spare time he plays WOW, SWTOR, GW2, etc... I raised him right
I don't think Quizz had Farmville or even Minecraft in mind. I think he's talking about something that has at least the same degree of complexity as WOW.

Population is growing so fast that we need to start thinking about moving to other planets (mars-one.com). Of course there's going to be a game/virtual world that's going to be more successful than WoW in the future. Maybe the OP should've restricted the discussion to our lifetime. Unless the mayan calendar is correct...

Populations starting to plateau and decline in many first world countries. Projections have been revised long ago and will likely decline around the year 2050. I can't remember the exact projection but it was at or in the latter half of this century. So not really relevant. Though if you want to start getting all futurist then why not consider actual sentient A.I. and the fact they may want to play games etc etc. So really it should be considered within a smaller timeframe than that.
Even with raid schedules and the like you don't always have people running a single raid in an entire night, in fact they made it so there is no obligation to do so, which is great. You progression for the week can be completing that raid this week ten days or whatever arbitrary time they use if you and your groups schedule don't mesh often.

a large advertising budget is huge for player growth. i think the only other recent company to do a tv ad that i've seen, in the past 2 years, has to be trion, but even then it didn't last very long. it's really basic business. you have to advertise to bring in new customers. this is true with most products that compete within a crowded market. the number of people that actually watch mmo news isn't as big as people think. the company would need direct advertisements across the board (radio, podcast, internet, tv, movie previews, retail posterts, etc.). discount sales, free game time, starting bonuses, etc are all part of good marketing. everyone has a push point that would get them to try a product of interest, and good marketing is based off of finding that point.
WoW is in a lot of areas. just off the top of my head.. i think they have a brazil hub, korean hub, hub in china, and the normal NA and EU. i may be talking out of my ass here, but i doubt that most games are available in as many countries as WoW is. Rift is available in NA, EU, S. Korea, and not sure about anywhere else.
WoW also started on a a great IP. most of the people i knew who were into non mmo gaming had played a warcraft title. it was an easy jump for them to get into gaming based off of the lore and style. i think a new mega million player mmo would have to based off of a great IP, as well as a few other things. if not a pre-established IP, then a large push for lore involvement would have to be pushed through ads and other story infusing avenues (books, comics, tv show, animated movies, etc.). the market is just so large that in order to stand out from the rest, a company would have to make people want to be involved with a world.
a lot of people want different things. this is really going to screw over most new games sincse no one is every happy. i think a new game on this level would have to offer something that really sets itself apart from the standard games released today. a patented system similar to what we've seen in some anime tv shows would do the trick (sword art online or dot hack), but i don't think it needs to be on that level to get those types of numbers. it's amazing how far an original idea goes. the anime i mentioned are slick because they would add interaction to a game, and with somthing like an mmorpg this is always a good thing. i don't think we need to be fully imersed into a game like that, but a little something would go a long way. a good gimic is often times the the structure to a good idea.
imho a 10 mil+ player mmo today would have to have amazing marketing with a massive budget, be available in most of the world, have a great launch with continued additions to the game (player and/or developer), a great IP or a new IP with a major out of game content push, the largest world we could have ever wanted, obvioulsy it would have to have solid gameplay that would fit the needs of most players with a HUGE selection of gameplay options, and will have to offer something that we haven't seen before to unite player game types.
Experience is the best teacher.. if you can afford the tuition.

Online = this one is obvious
Role Playing = well that little bundle of pixels ain't really me, so yeah...I'm playing a role
Game = Hot diggity! Ain't this fun?
OK... Farmville is officially an MMORPG... happy?

Thunder in the Vicinity
Wind: 3 mph
To The Editor:
We want to express our deepest gratitude and appreciation to Win, Adam and the rest of the Sugarbush team for their dedication, care and commitment to the Mad River Valley community. By keeping Lincoln Peak open to the very end of the practical limits of nature, they surpassed all expectations and most likely diminished their overall profit for the season by doing so.
At 5:10 p.m. on beautiful Saturday, May 4, when the "lifty" at the top of the Valley House Double greeted us upon disembarkation and wished us a great final run and summer season while looking forward to seeing us again in the winter, we experienced many feelings – sadness, gratitude, joy and appreciation. He, seeming sad as well, further hoped that we "had a great ski season." Wow! Parting is such sweet sorrow! For us 2013 was the best spring season ever and we will cherish the memories for a very long time.
The long-term commitment to our local economy and the well-being of the greater community by Sugarbush is evidenced on so many levels and must be recognized, prized and applauded. This is an amazing place to be and Sugarbush is one of our brightest stars. Thank you Sugarbush for a great season, again!
Nicholas and AnnMarie Harmon

Do you know an individual or family who has been impacted by Alzheimers? Chances are you do.
Every 68 seconds, someone in America develops Alzheimers disease. South Carolina is home to over 80,000 people living with Alzheimers or a related disease. To put the figure into perspective, that number could completely fill Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia.
From my own experience, I can attest to how challenging the disease is for a family. My brother, sisters, and I struggled with watching our mother fight this terribly cruel disease.
Coined by Nancy Reagan as the long goodbye, Alzheimers disease, which is the most common form of dementia, causes problems with memory, thinking, and behavior. The disease typically affects those who are 65 and older, and, though relatively uncommon, signs of early onset Alzheimers can appear in some adults as early as their 40s and 50s.
Alzheimers is a progressive disease that worsens as people age, and there is currently no known cure for the disease.
The greatest risk for Alzheimers disease is advancing age. Those who have a family member (parent, sister, or brother) are more likely to develop the disease than those who do not have a relative with Alzheimers disease. Some of the warning signs of Alzheimers disease include (courtesy of the Alzheimers Association):
Memory loss that disrupts daily life, especially forgetting recently learned information.
Challenges in planning or solving problems, such as following a recipe or keeping track of monthly bills.
Difficulty completing familiar tasks at home, at work, or at leisure, such as driving to a familiar location.
Repeated confusion with time or place.
New problems remembering words in speaking or writing.
Misplacing things often and losing the ability to retrace steps.
Decreased or poor judgment, such as making bad decisions with money, telemarketing offers, or paying less attention to personal hygiene.
Withdrawal from work and social activities or changes in mood and personality.
To assist individuals living with Alzheimers or a related disease, family members and friends play a vital role in taking care of their loved ones. In South Carolina during 2011, the economic value of unpaid caregiving was estimated to be $3.9 billion, reflecting over 322 million hours from more than 283,000 caregivers across our state.
Because caregivers often neglect their own health while taking care of their loved ones, it is important that caregivers take a break from their caregiving responsibilities.
If you would like to become involved with the Alzheimers Association by volunteering (such as organizing a caregiver support group, donating your time in the office, or assisting in any number of ways) or if you need to reach them for help, call 1-800-272-3900 or visit www.alz.org/sc.
For more information, contact the South Carolina Lieutenant Governors Office on Aging at (803) 734-9900 or 800-868-9095, or visit www.aging.sc.gov.

French Yogurt Cake with Lemon Curd and Strawberries (and a surprise... and a giveaway!)
I made mine with ground almonds as Dorie suggested and topped it with some homemade lemon curd and strawberries. I've never made lemon curd before and surely will again- it's simple, delicious, and a good way to use up some of the lemons that are over flowing in AZ right now!
Now for the kiddos I have a yogurt giveaway. You know how kids love Dora. However, I'm sure they would even appreciate this dessert with a little more sophisticated yogurt flavor than Dora Yoplait. My son loves this stuff (and the grown up versions too). However they enjoy their yogurt, I think everyone is glad to get a little calcium into picky eaters. I know my mom always was. Make sure to leave your email or that it's on your profile if you want to be entered in the giveaway (and US residents only for that, sorry kids!) I'll say the deadline for this contest is Saturday night (March 21) at Midnight, AZ time. I'll announce three winners next Tuesday (one entry per person please).
And now for my favorite picture of the week... meet my new little leprauchan (coming hopefully in time for my birthday in September!) and please accept my humble apologies for skipping out on the kitchen so often and for neglecting my blog. I'm happy to report I'm interested in food again (and feeding my poor husband) and we are all happy and healthy. And Happy St. Patty's day- you can bet we're eating Corned Beef and Cabbage tonight!
(Cake Recipe Here)
Lemon Curd
from Epicurious
*note: Next time I'll pulverize the zest and the sugar in the food processor before starting the cooking so the final product is a little smoother but still flavorful
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
1/2 cup sugar
3 large eggs
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into bits
Whisk together juice, zest, sugar, and eggs in a 2-quart heavy saucepan. Stir in butter and cook over moderately low heat, whisking frequently, until curd is thick enough to hold marks of whisk and first bubble appears on surface, about 6 minutes.
Transfer lemon curd to a bowl and chill, its surface covered with plastic wrap, until cold, at least 1 hour.

Dear Editor,
Last Sunday, September 8th was a perfect day to entertain visitors in Charleston with a carriage ride and brunch. We are newcomers to South Carolina having recently moved here from the south shore of Boston. Already our friends and relatives are lining up to visit our new home in Cane Bay.
Sadly, Sunday didn't end on a good note. We left downtown Charleston traveling east on I-26. Traffic was light. Two idiots in two separate vehicles chose that day and time to race one another. One of the vehicles was a Ford Mustang GT convertible that was reported to be going at least 100 mph when he struck us from behind spinning us around, hitting us again, forcing us off the highway and onto the off ramp at exit 203. The impact was sudden. The other racing vehicle took off. One of the many witnesses followed that car and was able to get a license plate number. Other witnesses stopped to help. We can't say enough about how nice everyone was to us at the accident scene, including the responding police officers.
The offending driver who hit us was a young man who did not have a driver's license and it wasn't his vehicle. He's lucky he wasn't thrown from it and killed. We're equally fortunate in that regard.
The story takes an unusual twist however. We've reported the accident to our insurance company, provided all the details, witnesses, accident reports, etc. The offending vehicle was also insured, that's the good news. The bad news, our policy has $1,000 deductible. I'm told, by the insurance company, that regardless of who is to blame for the accident, we will be responsible for the first $1,000 of damage! We didn't contribute to this accident, we are the victims, yet we will be forced to incur a financial loss due to the negligence of a young kid who unwisely decided to speed recklessly, almost killing us.
Something about this terrible incident just isn't right. The other driver was issued three tickets. Why then should we be out of pocket for any expenses? "That's the way it is" isn't a sufficient answer. Anyone who has an insurance policy with a deductible listed, take a moment to consider the consequences, and perhaps contact your agent. It's one of those things they don't explain in detail, until after the fact..

Hi all, I know I am scarse but I will pop in more now that things are getting more quiet.What I have figured out in the last few months has helped me so much. I realised that no one will ever be able to prove for certain that Heaven and Hell do or don't exist. It's something you just have to believe in or not. Follow the bible built into you for your answers.The thing that gets people the most is the whole Hell existance issue. So what? if somehow it does exist then there is nothing we can do about it. No amount of wishing it away is going to help us. Getting ourselves sick over the topic is not going to do us any good either. Becoming obsessed over morbid issues just causes depression and ruins lives. THAT God did not intend for us and THAT is something we can be sure of. He created life and He came to realise how much He loves His creation. If there is one thing we can be sure of, it is the fact that God loves us all and just wants the best for us, we aren't meant to live our lives in a morbid or fearful state.I seriously doubt the existance of an eternal Hell or Hell state, but then again if it is so then so be it. It's Gods choice and what He decides is final. Live your lives people. Love each other, love your children, love your surroundings. Live!!Pray. Never ever stop praying. Even if you feel it is useless or hopeless, do it in anyhow.So lets round this up.Heaven = fairly a certaintyHell = existance unknownGod = 100% absolute certaintyLive a good moral life. Read your bible and trust your built in bible. Enjoy your life and leave the rest up to God. Don't fret and don't obsess - That in a nutshell is the key to happiness

these group of ladies lined up against the finish line fence and were applauding and whooping it up for just about every runner that into the finish line. they made things exciting to watch them be full of fun and energy and supportive of all runners.
Dress code at the finish line was wide open as these Mermaids can attest. People dressed as anything and everything and lined up against the finish line nto support every runner by whooping it up and yelling for them.
Some groups got really creative taking their own photos as these runners formed a pyramid as their group racing photo.
