Remember the mean kids in high school? The ones who did mean stuff to impress their mean friends, then laughed about it, because they were mean?
Theyre still around.
Last month at a GOP Faith and Freedom Coalition Conference in Washington, D.C., adult meanies placed small, three-dimensional figurines of a grinning President Barack Obama in the bottom of the mens urinals. Because nothing says faith and freedom like bathroom humor. Har-har!
According to CNN, a Huffington Post reporter took photos of the figurines. After White House Senior Staffer Dan Pfieffer saw the photos he wryly tweeted, Totally uncalled for: Those ears are huge.
The wonderful thing about living in a democracy is that we have freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom to defame our elected leaders. Whoever is responsible for placing the figurines is entitled to his opinion. And I am entitled to call him an ass. Thats how it works. (I say he because I doubt a female was skulking around the mens room furtively depositing pee targets. But God knows I could be wrong.)
Was a crime committed? No. But, as my mother used to say, Just because you CAN do it, doesnt mean you SHOULD do it. (She was actually referring to a string bikini I wore in my younger years, but you get the point.)
Remember the word vulgar? You dont hear it much today. In an era of nude pregnant women on magazine covers and shows like Party Down South, weve largely become immune to vulgarity. So heres a news flash: Urinating on an image of the president is vulgar. And tacky. And juvenile.
Regardless of what you think about Obamas performance, the office he holds demands your respect. Seriously, Ive never seen such vitriol directed at a sitting president, not even Nixon or Slick Willie Clinton. (A tip for my Facebook friends: Im weary of hateful, hysterical posts that claim Obama is single-handedly gutting America.)
In other political bathroom humor, the mayor of upscale San Marino, CA. resigned after he was caught on a surveillance camera tossing a bag of dog poop in his neighbors yard. A screen-grab from the June 7 crime scene is hilarious: The mayor looks schlubby in a pair of cargo shorts, sneakers and zip-up hoodie. Not very mayoral, but neither is a bag of dog poop.
Kneiers neighbor Philip Lao discovered the doo-doo delivery outside his home, reviewed his surveillance tape and Kneier was busted dead to rights. Lao posted the video and it promptly went viral. Yes, we now have Poopgate.
According to NBC, Lao believed the mayor intentionally tossed the bag in retribution for Lao putting a No Poop Zone sign outside his home. Lao also publicly opposed a public dog park that Kneier proposed.
Kneier did the honorable thing and resigned as mayor, but will remain on council until his term ends in November 2015. He has apologized to Lao and will pay the littering fine, which could top $1,000.
Okay, two things: First of all, you can buy No Poop Zone signs?? Thats awesome or it would be, if dogs could read. People who allow their dogs to poop on someone elses property are probably too stupid to read.
So theres that.
Secondly, San Marino city council is nonpartisan, and I dont know what party Kneier belongs to. An internet search failed to enlighten me. But does it really matter if hes a Democrat, Republican or Libertarian?
Its just business as usual in the political trenches. 0And urinals. And poop zones.

People use energy for heat, lighting, and power in homes, business, factories, and agriculture, and for transportation. About 85 percent of the world's energy currently comes from fossil fuels (including petroleum, natural gas, and coal) or from using fossil fuels to generate other types of energy such as electricity.
The global stores of these fuels — especially petroleum — may have peaked and are expected to decline and to become much more difficult, expensive, and environmentally damaging to extract. Relying on resources from politically and socially volatile parts of the world threatens our security. Moreover, when these fuels burn they release carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas linked to global climate change.
Dwindling resources and climate change are two compelling reasons why our society must move beyond fossil fuels to more sustainable sources. "Renewable energy" sources are constantly replenished and, thus, inherently more sustainable. These sources include solar, wind, water, biomass (wood and other plant materials), and geothermal energy.
In the past, people relied almost exclusively on renewable sources of energy: solar energy for lighting, wood for cooking and heating, wind for pumping water or propelling ships, animals for land transportation, and so on. As the use of fossil fuels increased, the U.S. and other countries relied less on these resources. Today, people are finding innovative ways to once again use these renewable resources to meet energy needs.
The majority of renewable energy today is used to produce electricity. In 2008, about 9 percent of U.S. electricity was generated from renewable sources. While most of that power came from hydroelectric facilities, the amount of electricity generated from wind and solar resources has been increasing dramatically every year.
Any energy source has economic and environmental consequences, meaning that energy efficiency — finding ways to use less energy — is the first step toward sustainability. Renewable energy power plants are generally more expensive to build and operate than coal or natural gas plants, and can affect the natural landscape and native species. Large-scale solar arrays may compromise open spaces. Dams for hydroelectric generation have serious environmental consequences downstream. "Renewable" fuels such as ethanol currently require more energy input to grow than they produce, and take land out of food production.
Nuclear energy is probably the most controversial alternative to fossil fuels. Nuclear power emits less pollution than coal-fired plants. When properly operated, nuclear power plants create little or no carbon dioxide or particulate air pollution. They are also relatively efficient, expending a small amount of resources compared to the power they generate.
However, nuclear plants produce radioactive waste that is extremely dangerous and that must be carefully stored for thousands of years. The risk of a devastating nuclear accident (like Chernobyl) is always a possibility.
Some argue that the existence of nuclear power plants provides an infrastructure for mining and processing uranium and plutonium — energy sources for both nuclear power and nuclear weapons — and the possibility that these materials will get into the wrong hands (Nuclear Energy Information Service). Indeed, more than half of all countries with nuclear power plants also have nuclear weapons, and the country with the most nuclear power plants — the U.S. — also has the most nuclear weapons (Time for Change).
Despite the disadvantages, many countries are investing in new nuclear power plants. Currently, there are about 436 nuclear power plants operating in 31 countries, with 42 new plants under construction (European Nuclear Society).
Energy use is a significant part of schools' operations, and of schools' impacts on the environment. Public school systems spend more than $8 billion annually on energy, their highest expenditure after personnel. Fortunately, the substantial savings that can be realized through energy efficiency create an important incentive for building green and for retrofitting. Even before undertaking such projects, schools can reduce energy use by simpler behavioral changes. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that actions such as turning off computers, copiers, and lights when not in use, converting to low-flow and waterless plumbing fixtures, and replacing soft drink machines and other energy-intensive items could reduce a school's total energy use by as much as 33 percent (Department of Energy).
The greatest use of energy associated with many schools is the fuel expended in transporting students and staff to and from campus. Everything from locating schools closer to public transportation to encouraging walking and bicycling to eliminating the idling of vehicles dropping off or picking up students can substantially reduce the energy use for which the school is responsible.

Two dead in apparent murder-suicide in PeachamTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS | June 20,2013PEACHAM Vermont State Police say a New Hampshire man showed up at his ex-wifes home Wednesday morning, shot her husband and then himself in an apparent murder-suicide.
Authorities said Jeannie Peabody called police to report that a white van pulled up on the lawn in front of her house in Peacham around 7 a.m. Her husband, Mark Peabody, went outside to talk to the occupant, she said.
She heard gunshots and retreated to the basement, heard footsteps upstairs, and then went to a neighbors house to call 911, police said. She didnt see her husband after he left the house, police said.
Police responded with a SWAT team and search helicopter. They said they found Mark Peabody, 50, dead outside his home and John Jackson, 59, of Amherst, N.H., dead inside the residence. Both had been shot.
Mrs. Peabody was having disagreements with her ex-husband over child support payments, Lt. Bob Cushing said.
Police had no previous reports of violence involving them, he said.
State police sent a detective to Amherst to gather information about Jackson, Cushing said. His vehicle had New Jersey plates and had been rented in St. Johnsbury, police said.

Republican Del. Patrick McDonough kicked off a campaign this weekend urging state lawmakers to repeal the so-called "rain tax," a law requiring several jurisdictions to adopt stormwater management fees.
"This is the most unpopular tax I've ever witnessed," said McDonough, who served in the House once from 1979 to 1983 and again since 2003. "It's an example of states robbing local governments of their autonomy."
McDonough (Dist. 7) of Middle River said will soon be forming a state political action committee to back the campaign, which he expects to include several Democrats.
"We're going to need those Democrats who voted for this to take a second look and consider the impact," he said.
Next year's election should be make sure lawmakers pay attention to the issue, McDonough said.
The law, which took effect July 1, required nine counties and Baltimore city to adopt the fees, which support the health of the Chesapeake Bay. Property owners are charged based on the amount of impervious surface, but the local governments set their own fees.
One Democrat who won't be joining McDonough's campaign is Del. Tom Hucker (D-Dist. 20) of Silver Spring, who sponsored the 2012 bill that created the new law.
Not only do the fees protect the health of the Chesapeake Bay, but stormwater remediation projects resulting from the law will create thousands of construction, engineering and design jobs, Hucker said.
"Historically, my colleagues have been too wise to listen to Del. McDonough," Hucker said.
Harford County Executive David R. Craig also called for the law's repeal, saying in a statement Monday that the fees would be a disincentive for businesses, such as those with large parking lots, from coming to Maryland.
Although the two have similar goals, Craig is not participating in McDonough's campaign, a spokesman for the county executive confirmed.
McDonough said there is precedent for the law's repeal, citing the 6 percent sales tax on online services adopted by lawmakers in 2007 and then repealed before in took effect in 2008 after intense lobbying from tech companies.
Lawmakers, including several Democrats, expressed concern in April that the impact of the fees on businesses, nonprofits and homeowners associations could be greater than anticipated, and said the law may be revisited in the next General Assembly session.

Business Group Boosts MUW Scholarships
COLUMBUS, Miss. – With service in mind and a mission to provide opportunities for women, the Columbus American Business Women donated $500 to the Dr. Delene Willis Lee Scholarship Fund.
The check was recently presented to Andrea Stevens, executive director of development and alumni, by Columbus American Business Women President Jo Ann Ferguson and Vice President Leslie Webber.
"Scholarships have been one of the service projects for many years, with women achieving their goals and returning into the work force," said Ferguson.
The organization's mission is to bring together businesswomen of diverse occupations and to provide opportunities for them to help themselves and others grow personally and professionally through leadership, education, networking support and national recognition.
In 2008, an anonymous donor endowed the Dr. Delene Willis Lee Scholarship Fund to assist other non-traditional students living in a 40-mile radius of The W with preference given to students from Lowndes County.
During her time at MUW, Lee served as vice president for financial affairs and interim president. She was a former professor of education and human sciences.
Lee also was credited for implementing and directing the Leadership Program for Women, which emphasized education and career development for women.
Ferguson and Webber invited women, regardless of their status, to attend the organizations' monthly luncheon, which is the third Wednesday of each month at noon at Lion Hills Country Club.
"We will be celebrating our 25th anniversary in January 2015; all are welcomed."
The Columbus Anniversary Chapter of American Business Women received its charter January 1990.

EPA Increasing the Efficiency of Chemical Toxicity Tests
The Scientist interviewed embryonic stem cell test experts, including EPA researcher Sidney Hunter who talks about EPA's ToxCast project.
An efficient way to find out if a chemical could harm an unborn child is by running the mouse embryonic stem cell test (EST). The Scientist interviewed EST experts about the best ways to use the test and about EST variations. One expert, EPA researcher Sidney Hunter, tells The Scientist how EPA is developing easier ways to culture the cells, making the test even faster and cheaper to run. Read about it in the article Stemming the Toxic Tide.

Sudo and environment variables
From Brandonhutchinson.com
- If env_reset is set in sudoers, sudo will reset most environment variables.
If you want to preserve one or more environment variables for all commands in sudoers, add it to env_keep. From sudoers(4):
env_keep Environment variables to be preserved in the user's environment when the env_reset option is in effect. This allows fine-grained control over the environment sudo-spawned processes will receive. The argument may be a double-quoted, space-separated list or a single value without double-quotes. The list can be replaced, added to, deleted from, or disabled by using the =, +=, -=, and ! operators respectively. The default list of variables to keep is displayed when sudo is run by root with the -V option. env_reset If set, sudo will reset the environment to only contain the following variables: HOME, LOGNAME, PATH, SHELL, TERM, and USER (in addition to the SUDO_* variables). Of these, only TERM is copied unaltered from the old environment. The other variables are set to default values (possibly modi- fied by the value of the set_logname option). If sudo was compiled with the SECURE_PATH option, its value will be used for the PATH environment variable. Other variables may be preserved with the env_keep option.
If you want to execute a command in sudoers with environment variables preserved (while env_reset is set), add the SETENV tag to the command, and execute the command with sudo -E. From sudo(1m):
-E The -E (preserve environment) option will override the env_reset option in sudoers(4)). It is only available when either the matching command has the SETENV tag or the setenv option is set in sudoers(4).
- Run sudo -V as root to list the environment variables sudo clears.

SCOAP3 is a new model for Open Access publishing which works with leading publishers to convert key journals in the field of High-Energy Physics (HEP) to Open Access at no cost for authors. Subscription cost increases have put considerable strain on libraries, forcing them to cancel an increasing number of journal subscriptions. This situation is particularly acute in fields such as HEP, where timely pre-prints describing scientific results are available online. To address this problem, the library has decided to join SCOAP3. SCOAP3 pays publishers for the costs involved in providing Open Access. In turn, publishers reduce subscription fees to their customers who contribute to SCOAP3. This model will link quality and price, stimulating competition and enabling considerable medium- and long-term savings.
We are pleased to announce that the first Open Access articles sponsored by the SCOAP3 international initiative are now available. Almost 400 articles have already appeared in the first three weeks of 2014 in the journals of participating publishers.
For more information about SCOAP3, visit http://scoap3.org/about.html.

Google Maps borrowed the navigation controls from Google Earth and made the transition to Street View smoother. Just click on the small yellow man to see the street view imagery for the current location or drag the icon to the correct location.
Google Maps shows small previews when you drag the icon so you can adjust the position. Street View opens in full-screen and the mini-window displayed at the bottom of the map can be maximized when you want to change the location.
Google Maps will probably add a new tab for the Google Earth plug-in, so this change will make the navigation consistent.

USF Steps Up with Half-Price Courses
of general education courses for half price at its regional campuses as a way to help non-USF students who are feeling the squeeze of budget
cuts at the state's public universities.
Through the new program, USF Steps Up, the university will offer lower division classes in philosophy, U.S. history, writing, public speaking, Spanish, statistics, psychology, politics, and sociology at its campuses in Sacramento, San Ramon, Santa Rosa, and Cupertino. The price for each unit in the program will be $560 ($1,680 per course), which is a 55 percent discount from the regular cost of these courses at USF's main campus. The program will begin in January.
"I've heard heartbreaking stories from my colleagues at state schools," said Jennifer Turpin, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. "Students are begging to get into classes, but they can't graduate because they can't get the classes they need. We realized we could help these students and California by offering these classes at our regional campuses, where USF already has a presence."
USF's regional campuses concentrate on offering advanced degrees to working professionals, and most of those courses are taught at nights and on weekends. Because of this, USF is able to offer the new daytime courses because there are no scheduling conflicts and little additional overhead.

Sunday, July 28, 2013
Last week I wrote about trying to teach my kids how to keep it classy while passing gas.
This week Sadie, my 4-year-old, had another sleepover and the next day it came — the dreaded sleepover hangover.
For most of the summer Sadie has been skipping naps. We've been too busy at the pool, swimming in creeks and visiting our friends and family to bother. But after staying up until almost 10:30 p.m. recently, Sadie crashed hard the following day.
She screeched at her sisters. She cried when I looked at her. She wouldn't let her grandmother pick her up. But I knew it was time for a nap when she started crying that she wanted to clean up.
What sorcery is this? I wondered. Begging to clean in lieu of sleeping??
But I wasn't having any of it. Baby Girl needed a nap — STAT.
So just in case you are a mother of little ones, in that precarious place of to nap or not to nap, here's a little list to help you spot signs that your kid is ready for a nap. 1) Acting like eye contact is physically painful.
2) Offering to clean or do any sort of household chore.
3) Screaming for whichever parent isn't in the house. (Classic.)
4) Hissing like a feral cat.
5) Breathing after lunch.
This has been a public service annoucement. If your child exhibits any of these symptoms, put them in the bed immediately. Close the door, find a dark corner and a cold drink and breathe deeply.

USC Aiken men's basketball coach Vince Alexander isn't interested in talking about milestones … yet. But that doesn't mean they're not worth mentioning.
In a season full of significant records and events for the Pacers, they achieved the greatest to date on Tuesday night at the Convocation Center. That was when they defeated Barton 82-75 in the championship game of the Division II NCAA Tournament Southeast Regional to advance to the Elite Eight in the big dance for the first time in program history.
"The milestone we want is in Atlanta," Alexander said of the national championship game, which will be played on April 7 at Philips Arena. "If we get that, we might go crazy. But we're going to enjoy tonight … tomorrow we're moving on, and God willing, we'll win a national championship."
To make it to the title game in Atlanta, USCA must first advance through the Elite Eight and Final Four in Louisville, Ky. The Pacers' next game will be played at 8 p.m. on March 28, when it will take the floor at Freedom Hall against Midwest Regional champion Drury University.
The fact they're even at that point is significant, since it had never been achieved in all the years men have been playing D-II basketball at USCA. It didn't seem very likely at the start of this season, when the Pacers were picked to finish fourth in their own league – the Peach Belt Conference. They didn't even enter the national rankings until a week ago, when they were rated No. 20.
"We've been disrespected all year. No one believes in us but us," Alexander said of his squad which exceeded expectations by winning the PBC regular-season championship, the conference tournament title and now the Southeast Regional which they hosted. "It means a lot. This team has worked its tail off all year."
Led by regional MVP Re'mon Nelson, the Pacers rallied from a first-half deficit to build an 11-point lead with 2:23 to play in the game. Barton, which won the Conference Carolinas regular-season title, fought valiantly and cut its deficit to three points with 40 seconds to play.
But USCA staved off the comeback attempt and closed the game scoring the final four points, including a clutch 3-pointer from guard Ronald Zimmerman, who was named to the All-Regional team after scoring a game-best 24 points.
With an insurmountable lead, the vocal crowd of 2,008 supporters stood and cheered as their Pacers ran out the clock and started a celebration that included lots of hugging, trophy presentations and the traditional cutting down of the nets.
"I want to congratulate Aiken; that's a tremendous basketball team," said Barton coach Ron Lievense, who applauded the effort put forth at the Convocation Center, on the court and behind the scenes. "Aiken did a tremendous job hosting the tournament and did great work."
For the Pacers, that work isn't done as they'll look to add three more wins to their 25-7 season total. More importantly, they're looking to add another piece of hardware to their ever-expanding trophy case that included the nets from Tuesday's game.
"It's fun," Nelson said of cutting down the nets. "It's a goal of ours, and we're looking forward to doing it again."
Noah Feit is the sports editor for the Aiken Standard and has been a professional journalist for more than a dozen years after graduating from Syracuse University.

Hi - I have been posting on the Ask the Experts forum, but this may be a more appropriate place for me. I ended up with severe pre-e during my first pregnancy - it hit at 37 1/2 weeks and I delivered the next day a perfectly healthy baby. I started researching pre-e a few months later and came upon this foundation. I am not 23 weeks with my next baby. Today I went to the University of Washington Hypertensive clinic because my bp's had started going up around my 16 week appointment. It was determined that my pulse was way too high - 115 at the appointment and I was put on Atenol. Dr. Easterling (the doctor I met with - he is on the board of this foundation) said that with a pulse like that my bp's could raise suddenly. He also mentioned that my kidny function was compromised - which would be common with a pulse like mine and I had a trace of protein in my urine. It feels good to have great medical care. I will be around here lots as I learn so much from you ladies. Had anyone else been put on Atenol at around 23 weeks (which I am)? What type of care did you get from your OB after that? I know that I will go back to the UW in 7 weeks and have an ultrasound close to that, but anything else???

BuffaloBills.com reports: StadiumWall.com poster, Bill Race, submitted this to Tim:
'A Buffalo Bills game is more than just a game, it is an experience. It starts meeting friends in the parking lot, shoot the breeze, look at all the impossible fan activities going on and fixing a fine lunch to share.
Next, off to the game at 12:15, meet more old friends inside. Now for a great game.

Crowded Backfields Abound in NFL [3:45 PM]
Pro Football Weekly reports: 'The rookie, Henry, has the best chance to be a first- and second-down back. He's a very powerful runner with a low center of gravity and tremendous desire. On the other hand, Morris is a terrific receiver with good run skills, adequate speed and very good balance and body control but questionable durability. Bryson has the best speed of the three and is a breakaway threat, but he also has the fewest run skills. Hands-wise, Bryson's between Henry and Morris.'

Some of the Bills prefer to stay low key and watch fireworks at home with their family.'
Season of hope: Speculation about to give way to reality [3:40 PM]
CBS Sportsline reports: 'QB Rob Johnson -- The Bills made the right decision in making Johnson their starter and letting Doug Flutie walk. Now it's time for Johnson to show that he can be a legitimate starter. He has all the tools, but he has had trouble staying healthy, some say because he holds the ball far too long. That's a criticism to some, but isn't that also an indication of his desire to make a play? Now that the Bills have adopted a version of the West Coast offense, Johnson should have a better chance of staying healthy. Plus, he doesn't have to worry about the pain from all the knives in his back courtesy of Flutie.'
Coach Williams' praise of Peerless last night ... [11:25 AM]
StadiumWall.com reports: 'Williams' was really excited about our offense. He said that we had so many weapons that teams are going to have a real hard time defending the field.

He said that he expected great things from him.'
Ranking QB units from top to bottom [9:37 AM]
The Sporting News reports: 26. Bills. This is Rob Johnson's team after the departure of Flutie. Johnson was a better fit for the new offense, but now he must stay healthy. Backup support comes from Alex Van Pelt, Pete Gonzalez and Tim Hasselbeck.

Rookie Symposium serious business [2:34 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'On the surface, it's a great way to make a living, playing football for hundreds of thousands of dollars (perhaps millions) in the National Football League. The money, the fame, the adoring fans… However, there can be a dark side to the glory.

The Sporting News reports: 'It can be safely said that no one loves and appreciates game officials of any sport more than Jerry Seeman.

Math: Mulitiplication Tips and Resources for Kids
Math Know-How
For a lot of kids (including my own) the word math is a dirty four-letter word. Rare is the child who begs their parents to let him or her stay up all night and work out math problems – I think those kids must live somewhere in Bizarro World – they certainly don't live in my house.
In my experience math woes begin to arise right about the time multiplication is introduced. I get a lot of hemming and hawing when it comes to working out those multiplication problems, but with a little patience and some good resources, learning how to multiply can be as easy as 1, 2, 3.
Here are some tips and resources to make learning multiplication fun and easy.
- Invest in some multiplication flash cards (I purchased some at Walmart many years ago), or better yet, make them yourself with some index cards or cut up sheets of paper.
- Write out multiplication problems on a sheet of paper or dry erase board for your child to practice. I find that my kids prefer to use the dry erase board to work out math problems as opposed to a plain sheet of paper – maybe it's because they're working on only a couple of problems at a time and therefore the task seems like less work.
- Verbally quiz your children every once in a while by asking them multiplication problems. We do this when we have to wait in the car or in doctors offices – it helps to pass the time, and the kids are learning.
- Use worksheets and games to enhance the learning experience. Worksheets are a useful tool for learning multiplication, but it has been my experience that interactive games really do the trick when it comes to learning multiplication facts. My kids love to play games anyway (as most kids do), and for reluctant math learners games are a great way to hide the fact that they're learning.
Online Multiplication Resources:
- Visual Multiplication game: This is a multiplication applet and only goes through 10, but it's a valuable resource nonetheless.
- Multiplication – Times Tables: This chart goes through 12, and is kind of interactive.
- Printable Multiplication Tables and Charts: This site has lots of worksheets for printing out.
- Timez Attack: My kids love thins game! You can play it online or download the basic version for free. It's pretty cool.
What about you? Do you have some great tips and tricks for getting your kids to learn multiplication? Feel free to share them below.

I found a few that the employees wanted first (they did not know about the dots) then started to pick out all the ones I was missing. From the register I hear the dreaded words "HOW MUCH!!! This can't be right" from the cashier. They were ringing up at $4.49 each. The manager was surprised and found that they raised the price last night. Needless to say, I put them back (except for the 2 fisherman which at BOGO was not bad)
Also they are online at TRU for $2.99 (thanks ToysNBricks for the info) BUT you can only BOGO one and it is not a free shipping item.
4.49 well don't worry , I think they'll be available at a decent price down the road...you can still get a case of series 2 for 120 even now , so hopefully will be the same with series 3 later.

- Well Made
Best Uses
- Pick Up Driveway Sweeping
I have looked for a high-capacity dustpan for the yard for years--finally, this one has arrived. It is well designed, with a good balance between capacity and weight. The metal ones I have seen are generally not tall enough to carry more than a few leaves, but this one is several inches deep, and having the handle in the middle makes it perfectly balanced without putting strain on the wrist. The metal lip at the leading edge is a helpful feature, preventing things from falling out of the pan while giving more rigidity and longevity at the business end. Leaves, twigs, sawdust, and even small gravel are picked up easily and held for disposal. Excellent product.
- Great handle
- Light Weight
- Perfect size
Best Uses
- Easy To Dump In Container
- Great For Scooping Leaves
The tidy pan is light weight and shaped well to allow for emptying leaves in containers.
The handle makes it easy to manuever.
I love the easy to clean material. I have arthritis which makes some tasks difficult. This product made the tasks easier. I will use it often!

MCCOY KISSES THE RING: Gerald McCoy went up to the podium at One Buc today and paid his respects to Peyton Manning, who he will be going against this Sunday. And by "paid his respects", I mean verbally blew him. Like a really slow, deep verbal blowing. I'd cut and paste a quote from it, but you really have to read it all. And McCoy was really excited to let everyone know how much he loved Manning. He interrupted his own press conference to extoll Manning's greatness. Pay attention to the SoundFX episode from this week and you're going to hear McCoy ask for Manning's autograph on the field.
ROSTER SPOTS FILLED: The Bucs filled out the roster spots left by the two players put on injured reserve with guard Derek Hardman and David Gilbreath, a wide receiver/returner who was recently waived by Pittsburgh. Hardman is more versatile than Jeremy Trueblood and the Bucs are one offensive line injury away from the Arena League, so it was a good move. And the Bucs' return game has netted only slightly more than squat, so if Gilbreath can keep the Bucs from starting drives in their own endzone, fine. I said the same thing about Roscoe Parrish, though, so it's apparently harder than it looks to find decent return men. Or a decent burger. Can you tell I'm hungry?
I also have to note that a safety was put on IR and a cornerback was suspended, yet neither of the two replacement players were in the secondary. So congratulations LeQuan Lewis and Danny Gorrer. I wonder if Peyton is intimidated.
I SHOULD PAY MORE ATTENTION: I pulled up the Bucs roster to make sure I knew Gorrer's first name and started scrolling through it a little more carefully. Holy shit, there are a lot of unknown dudes on there. Here are some names for you. Without looking them up, have you ever heard of them or know what position they play? Aaron Morgan, Matthew Masifilo, David Douglas. Okay, I guess that's only three, so I do know most of the roster. But still… I don't even recognize those names from college. And who's this guy LeGarrette Blount?

LAUREL HILL — For the fourth consecutive season, there will be a new coach leading Laurel Hill School's volleyball team. However, this one has a familiar face and plenty of coaching experience at Laurel Hill.
Four years ago, Hobo head boys basketball coach and athletic director Kent Zessin stepped away from the volleyball job after 11 years on the sidelines. Since his departure, the position has been the proverbial revolving door.
When Ashley Miller, who coached the team last year, had to step down, Zessin was ready to answer the call and return to volleyball.
"Once coach Miller told me over the summer she had decided to step down because of health reasons, it kind of put me in a situation to try and go out and find a volleyball coach for the fourth year in a row," Zessin said. "Because my daughter, Bridget, is playing and is junior, I had an interest in coming back out and trying to get through a couple of years with her and hopefully let her have some success in this sport and enjoy it."
Zessin said he had mixed emotions when he stepped away from the volleyball team four years ago. A part of him wanted to stay with the team, but another part knew he needed to spend time with a young boys basketball team.
"In the 11 years of coaching volleyball, it's something that has grown on me and I've enjoyed working with the girls," he said. "We've got a nice club and we've got a bunch of good girls. It's a bunch of good girls not only on the court, but in the classroom and in the community.
"They are just good-hearted girls. And that makes it easy for a coach to say, 'Yes, I want to come back.'"
Zessin credits Miller for the work she did in teaching the players the game last year. He said she did a good job of teaching the fundamentals.
A team that is sound fundamentally and has some nice talent too could as the Hoboes do, could make give people problems this year.
A pair of 6-footers, senior Jhanea Griffin and freshman Kaylee L'Homme, will present problems to most 1A teams. Griffin and L'Homme will be joined at hitter by Zessin and Lauren Gordon.
Breanna Trunk and Morgan Meeks will be the setters. Ashley Hatfield and Chloe Talaric also will see plenty of playing time.
Laurel Hill will play in the newly aligned District 1-1A with Central and Bethlehem.
If the Hoboes can end the regular season as the top seed in the district, they will assure themselves a spot in the playoffs for the first time since 2008.
The automatic playoffs spot makes earning that No. 1 seed that much more important.
"Your goal is to make it to the state playoffs," Zessin said. "And our goal is to win district actually. But being that No. 1 seed would eliminate one of those goals (making the playoffs) right off the bat, without even stepping on the court, and that makes it nice."

Reviews for Mocha Pudding Cakes
Sort By :
"Very good. A perfect "couples" dessert. A great end to our Valentine's Day meal."
"This is the best and so easy! My guests loved it and my husband is asking for more. I am going to try and double the ingredients because this only makes 2 servings and is just not enough! I am hoping that doubling everything will work out but I am a little hesitant to double the cocoa and I note that someone made it in a 8" square pan and said not to double the topping. So, I'll work with that. But a note, for the first batch I did not have Ramekins so I put it in a small dish. Serving it up was not as pretty so I definitely feel the Ramekins are well worth it."
"Very tasty Valentine dessert."
"It is picky husband approved. Its so simple to make & I almost always have everything I need on hand."
"YUM. I tripled this & put in an 8" square baking dish for easy transport to a potluck. The only thing I might change is doubling the amount of sauce poured over cake batter. It went over extremely well. Glad the recipe is for just two, no excuse not to pamper oneself with this!"

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Michael Snaer hit four free throws in the final 22.4 seconds to help reigning champion Florida State hold off Clemson 73-69 on Thursday night in the first round of the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament.
Snaer finished with 10 points for the sixth-seeded Seminoles (18-14), who let a 14-point lead with 3 minutes left slip to a single bucket late. But his last two free throws with 6.9 seconds showing made it a two-possession game and helped FSU hang on.
Okaro White scored a career-high 24 points for FSU, while Terrance Shannon added 12 — including six straight to spark a 14-3 second-half run that helped the Seminoles take control after trailing by 10 in the first half.
Florida State advanced to Friday's quarterfinals to face third-seeded North Carolina.
Jordan Roper scored 18 to lead the 11th-seeded Tigers (13-18), who lost their seventh straight to close their worst season in nine years.
