Loretta Lynn's Rance, the longest-running venue on the GNCC circuit, has be taken off the schedule for 2013.
"Due to a scheduling conflict, the Loretta Lynn's venue will not be on the GNCC schedule for 2013," said GNCC Event Director, Dean VanLeeuwen. "Loretta's has given us nearly 30 years of good racing and we're looking forward to possibly returning to the ranch in the future."
Round 11 of the series will now be held on the property of the RiverStone Estate, one of the largest privately owned mansions in Pennsylvania. The "Gusher" race will take place on over 1200 acres of riverfront property in Foxburg, Pennsylvania., amidst the Allegheny Mountains of Western Pennsylvania.
Although the property lies within the mountains, the terrain is not extreme as one may think. The racecourse will be running through the rolling hills of a previously established 18-hole golf course.
"I'm really excited for this event because of the wide variety of terrain we have to work with," said Barry Hawk, 8-time GNCC champ and Trail Boss. "We have the opportunity to give racers a good mixture of fast and open sections and then to quickly jump into more technical sections of fresh trail. All in all, the great dirt, elevation change and variation in the woods could potentially make this the most fun GNCC track of the season."

Audubon Zoo
Children under 2 are free. Ages 2-12 $13.95
Activity Description
Bourbon Street isn't the only place you'll find wildlife in New Orleans! Spend a day wandering around Audubon Zoo, a sprawling 58-acre habitat for more than 2,000 animals, including rare white alligators, white tigers, gorillas, monkeys, and endangered whooping cranes.
The layout of the Zoo is designed to guide visitors through a self-guided walking tour of animals from around the world, but by far the most popular attraction is the award-winning Louisiana Swamp Exhibit. With its languid lagoons and abundant cypress trees, the Swamp Exhibit is a true urban swamp, immersing visitors in Louisiana culture and terrain.
Inside the African Savannah, grazing rhinos and giraffes are the stars. At the South American Pampas, you'll see emus, tapirs, and the largest rodents in the world, the capybaras. Jaguar Jungle, built to resemble a misty Mayan rainforest, is where you'll find the mysterious and sacred jaguars.
The Asian Domain is home to some of the Zoo's most famous stars, Asian elephants, Panya and Jean. These two larger-than-life ladies are the "showgirls" of the Zoo. King Rex and King Zulu, rare white tigers, draw a huge crowd along with the critically endangered Amur leopards.
Long hot day in New Orleans? Cool the kids off at the seasonal Cool Zoo, a wet-n-wild water park on Zoo grounds. An additional, nominal entry fee gets your kiddos into the water park and all of its fun features, including jumping water spouts, a gator waterslide, squirting, spraying park features, and three different splash zones to suit different age groups (one is dedicated for toddlers only).
Educational chats and feedings, shopping and concessions are available through the Zoo. Take time to include a ride on the Endangered Species Carousel and Swamp Train. Journey back in time at the Dinosaur Adventure with eleven life size roaring, moving dinosaurs in natural settings.
Audubon Zoo sits inside the sprawling fields of oaks and lagoons in Audubon Park, and if you're planning a trip to the Zoo, you'll want to set aside an entire day to explore it all.

Buying Baby Food
Although it is certainly more healthy and inexpensive to make your own baby food, there are certain circumstances that will make you resort to store-bought baby food. For those said instances, be sure to keep in mind the following:
Read the labels to make sure that the food is age-appropriate. Check the ingredients in case your baby is allergic to something.
Research on the advantages and disadvantages of organic baby food. They can be healthier alternatives but they can also be more expensive.
There are coupons available for baby food as well. Look for sales and don't forget to bring your coupons with you the next time you shop.
Don't overstock. Check the expiration date. Buy a jar for each flavor and find out which your baby likes.

Never would have thunk I would find this so indisepsnlabe.

More Than Able: Craig DeMartino's Story
"Don't call my wife. That's a bad idea."
Rocky Mountain National Park staff and a wildfi re crew worked the litter downhill from Lumpy Ridge's Sundance Buttress. DeMartino's longtime climbing partner, Steve Gorm, shadowed and helped when he could. They clawed over talus toward a flat spot where they could put a chopper down. But 100 feet is simply too far to fall, the rescuers believed. Gabriel pressed the cell phone to DeMartino's ear as the litter lurched.
I'll be there, Cyndy DeMartino said. Hold on.
At dusk, a medevac chopper landed in a meadow. As they loaded DeMartino into the helicopter, his foot grazed the fuselage, sending a wave of pain up through his body. It was the first feeling he'd had from below his waist. The technician slipped a syringe into the IV drip, and DeMartino slid into darkness.
On July 21, 2002, after a miscommunication with his climbing partner, DeMartino fell half a rope length from the anchors of Whiteman (5.11c) on Sundance. Later that night, a doctor would emerge from an operating room and tell Cyndy DeMartino that it was likely Craig wouldn't last through the night. She needed to sign resuscitation papers.
Eighteen months later, on December 2, 2003, after dozens of surgeries, months in a hospital bed, and a year in a wheelchair waiting fruitlessly for the fragments of bone in his right leg to knit together, DeMartino took a sharpie, pressed the felt tip to his skin, drew a large X across the useless limb, and then signed his name to execute the most difficult decision of his life: amputate. That December day, DeMartino lost his leg and embarked on the task of making his life whole again.
"Before I got hurt, I was a dad. I was a husband. I was a climber. I was a photographer," DeMartino says. "Living through something like that, you get that clarity of, 'Whoa, these are three people who care about me the most. My two kids and my wife.' You embrace what you love, but there is that part of you that goes, 'But climbing was this huge thing.' What do I do with that?"
It wasn't just climbing. The pain and the wheelchair made it difficult to play with his children, to be outside, to be the father and husband he had always envisioned being. Even traveling for work was difficult.
"I had all these strings attached to me that I had never had before," says DeMartino, "and it totally screws with your identity. You're like, 'Who the hell am I?'"
Loveland's climbing community threw a fundraiser to help with the mounting insurance and hospital bills. The late Craig Luebben, one of the DeMartino's closest friends, spearheaded the efforts and helped raise $10,000 for the family's ballooning medical bills.
"It was humbling," remembers Cyndy. "I thought of myself as a pretty independent person. We had friends who climbed, but it was just incredible to see the community help—what people were willing to do to help."
DeMartino's right leg was already in jeopardy when someone spread word about his situation to the well-known Front Range climber Malcolm Daly, who had decided to have one leg amputated two years after a fall on Thunder Mountain in the Alaska Range. The mutual acquaintance arranged a meeting.
Daly is the executive director of Paradox Sports, a non-profit that helps amputees experience defi ning moments in the outdoors. To DeMartino, he said, "I want to show you my leg and show you some of the things I can do."
Daly was climbing, hiking, riding a bike, and most of all he was at peace with his condition. "You make the decision if you want to be an amputee or a cripple," says Daly, pointing to the incredible improvements in prosthetics in the last 20 years. "They aren't the same. Not now. There are no excuses."
After that brief meeting, DeMartino realized he had an option. He began discussing amputation with his doctor. DeMartino waited for two months to see what impact, if any, powerful nerve drugs would have on his RSD. They worked, but only to a certain extent.
"Craig's foot was as good as it was going to get. It wasn't going to heal any more," says Cyndy, who has always been one of Craig's regular climbing partners. "I thought it was a good decision. It provided the hope that he might be able to do the things he loved."
In November 2003, with conviction in his voice, DeMartino walked into his doctor's office.
"I said, 'I'm done. I want to do it.' He said, 'That's the best decision you will ever make. Get up,'" DeMartino remembers. "We walked over to his nurse, and he was like, 'When do I operate in December?' She said 'December 2.' He said, 'Put him on the schedule for 8 o'clock.' He said, 'Just do it. Don't think about it any longer than you have to.'"
"At the end of the day, if you do a hard climb, really the only person who is going to care is you," DeMartino said after one of the burns.
To be in DeMartino's presence is to remember that there is still meaning in our sport's truisms and clichés. He reveals no hint of cynicism. There is a passion for climbing and travel that conjures up memories of being 18 years old—of 99-cent gas and topos scribbled into the backs of hand-me-down guidebooks. As he enters his third decade of climbing, DeMartino has quietly made his way into the ranks of professional climbers, with sponsorships from Evolv, Arc'teryx, and BlueWater. It's not the raw difficulty of his successful ascents (he tops out at about 5.12+) or his disability— that term shouldn't be applied to anyone who can successfully sandbag. DeMartino is simply a poster boy for what it means to be a climber: passion, commitment, and genuine love for the sport and the community.
"If you have fun, and you are enjoying the people you're with and the places you're at, you're winning. You are ahead of the game," DeMartino says.
Mentally, DeMartino devised a plan he simply called "The List." He compiled a tick list of 10 climbs he had done with two legs that he wanted to repeat. Some were relatively easy local routes like Combat Rock's Diagonal (5.9), which was the first climb he did with Cyndy. There were his favorite boulder problems like Punk Rock Traverse (V5) at Horsetooth Reservoir, which he used to be able do in tennis shoes. And of course, there was El Cap, which he first climbed in 1998. Today, The List is an ever-evolving string of local routes, fingery boulder problems, and lifelong objectives. It has moved well beyond old, familiar routes into new territory.
Three days later, I got another text, this time from the summit: "13 hours!" It was the first time an amputee had successfully climbed the Nose in a day, but DeMartino only mentioned being really happy and very worked. He kept talking about the Pancake Flake's crisp, exposed laybacking and the splitter dihedral pitches. Leading in timed blocks, DeMartino led a third of the route, and then chased Nose speed-climbing legend Florine on the remainder of the pitches. It was completion of a goal that predated the accident.
DeMartino thinks of his climbing career in two parts, pre- and post-accident. "Pre-accident," he says, "I did a lot, but I also kind of took it for granted. Now I've done some amazing things and been able to go places that, had I never gotten hurt, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to go do.
"I've had multiple people ask me, 'If you could back up and change everything, would you go back and not have the accident?'" he continues. "And it sounds really stupid, but I wouldn't change it now. The better of the two climbers is the climber today."
Fitz Cahall is the creator of The Season 2, an online video series that follows DeMartino through his El Cap efforts. Visit climbing.com/photo-video/av to see the series. Since working on this story, Cahall has vowed to never whine about nagging injuries.

Great comment Marvin. I exducled Kayaking and Skiing (which is great for strength, stamina, and balance!) from the list because of accessibility. For those with access though they are excellent training choices.Kayaking is a fantastic way to build upper body strength. On the one occasion I've had to go I felt my arms for days and days and I was only out for a couple hours. I'd think it would need to be supplemented with hiking or running though.Aysun - 10/26/2012 11:54:45

WASHINGTON -U.S. Senator Susan Collins announced that the Eastern Maine Processing Center in Hampden will not close under a new policy adopted by the Postmaster General that was also included in a Senate-passed postal reform bill coauthored by Senator Collins.
In conversations with Senator Collins on Tuesday and Wednesday, U.S. Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe told the Senator that he would generally follow the service standards in her legislation, which passed the Senate last month, until at least 2014. Senator Collins' provision would result in the continued operation of the Eastern Maine Processing Center in Hampden by mandating the preservation of certain overnight delivery standards in some areas. In Maine, reliable overnight delivery service would be impossible without both the Eastern Maine facility in Hampden and the Southern Maine plant in Scarborough.
The reason both facilities are required reflects Maine's geography. Today, a letter mailed from Fort Kent to Wallagrass --10 miles away -- travels to the Eastern Maine Processing Center in Hampden, 192 miles away, to be processed. It then returns the following day by truck to Wallagrass - which is 182 miles away. If, however, the Eastern Maine Processing Center were to close, as the Postal Service had previously proposed, this letter would have to have been transported to Scarborough -- 322 miles away from Fort Kent, and then get trucked another 312 miles back to Wallagrass.
The following is Senator Collins' statement:
"The Postmaster General has made the right choice in deciding to pursue service standards similar to those I authored and included in the Senate-passed postal reform legislation," said Senator Collins. "As long as these standards are followed, the Hampden postal facility will not close. This is welcome news for employees at the Hampden plant, and for the businesses and residents of northern, eastern, central, and western Maine. I appreciate that the Postmaster General is listening and adopting a common-sense approach to processing plants and overnight delivery.
"As a result of requiring the preservation of some overnight service, the Hampden mail processing center will be kept open. As I have long argued, given the geography of our State, both plants - in Hampden and Scarborough -- are clearly essential to avoid lengthy delays in mail delivery which would cause a further loss of postal customers and revenues.
"If mail to and from the northern half of Maine had to travel all the way to the Scarborough plant to be processed, longer delivery times would have been inevitable, and that has consequences -- for small businesses advertising their products or billing their customers, for families who use the mail for their newspaper delivery, for seniors who rely on the mail for their prescription drugs, and for so many others. As long as this new policy is in effect or if the Senate-passed bill becomes law, these troubling consequences will be averted."
The Postmaster General originally proposed elimination of 223 of the 461 postal processing facilities around the country, including the Hampden plant. Senator Collins' bill and the Postmaster General's new plan would retain an estimated 320 plants nationwide -- including both Maine plants -- in order to meet certain overnight delivery standards.

Cleaning Up Kid Messes
by Nicole of The Humbled Homemaker
Not long after we moved into our new house, I mentioned to my husband how much I would love a second vacuum cleaner–so I had one for each level of the house.
"Um, not right now," he said.
Imagine how excited I was when not even a week later I received an email asking if I could like to review the new BISSELL PowerGlide®!
Even better, this vacuum cleaner even specializes in kid (and pet) messes! Yep, I knew this one would be right up my alley–and your alley as well!
To give you an overview, the PowerGlide® with Lift-Off® Technology is powerful yet lightweight enough to tackle the home's toughest messes, including stairs, drapes and other hard-to –reach places.
Key Features:- No loss of suction and sealed system- One-step removable pod for portable cleaning- Long-stretch hose- Lightweight- Swivel steering for maneuverability- Adjustable handle for easy use and storage- 12-inch foot for stability- Large capacity dirt cup- 27-foot cord- Included TurboBrush® and crevice tool
I have to say I am really excited about the fact that it includes a one-step removable pod for portable cleaning, a long-stretch hose and is lightweight. See those stairs above? I must confess that I rarely vacuum my staircase–even though it's one of our most highly-trafficked areas! Why? My old vacuum cleaner is just so cumbersome lifting up and down the stairs! I am super excited to try out the BISSELL PowerGlide® on the stairwell, as I imagine it will be a lot easier. Don't worry–I'll include an after picture in another post!
My girls love the new chalkboard table my husband made them for our school/play room, but, let me tell you, underneath that table gets pretty messy when the chalk dust starts to fly! When kids come together, the messes multiply! I am excited to try the BISSELL PowerGlide® here after play dates.
As you can see in the above picture, today there are some scattered crayons, a playdough container and even a piece of gluten-free bread crust under that table! Since it doubles as our craft/school table, messes such as after-school/movie snacks; art projects; paint, pen and marker stains; and sticky messes like glue, juice boxes and more find their way under there!
I am especially excited about using the BISSELL PowerGlide® to clean out our mini van. Families spend a lot of time in the car between road trips, school carpools and everyone's activities. So, it's not hard to see why there can be just as many messes in the car as in the home. Like the stairs, I don't clean out the van frequently enough because it's just hard to do with a cumbersome vacuum! I am looking forward to enjoying the portability of the BISSELL.

BISSELL PowerGlide® Pet Vacuum with Lift-Off® Technology
This is such an easy vacuum to use. With having 2 large labs in the house, I am vacuuming almost daily! I love how light it is and easy to store! The easy empty basket is a joy.

POSTED: 7:08 a.m. HST, Feb 7, 2011
LAST UPDATED: 8:19 p.m. HST, Feb 7, 2011
NEW YORK — For the second year in a row, the Super Bowl has set a record for American television viewing.
The Nielsen Co. said Monday that an estimated 111 million people watched the Green Bay Packers outlast the Pittsburgh Steelers in professional football's ultimate game. That tops the 106.5 million who watched the 2010 game between New Orleans and Indianapolis.
The series finale of "M-A-S-H" had held the title of the most-watched TV show in the United States for 27 years. It is now No. 3.
Fox had the advantage of a game between two of the National Football League's iconic franchises and, even though it looked like it could be a rout when the Packers took a 21-3 lead, it went down to the final minute and held viewers' interest.
In fact, the most-watched single play of the game was Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's final incomplete pass to Mike Wallace with about a minute to go, according to measurements by TiVo Inc., the digital video recorder maker. When that pass hit the ground, it clinched the game for Green Bay.
The five most-watched events in U.S. TV history are now "M-A-S-H" (seen by just under 106 million people on Feb. 28, 1983) and the last four Super Bowls, Nielsen said.
Television ratings in general have been super for the NFL this year, with viewership up 13 percent over last year, Nielsen said. Games on CBS, Fox and NBC averaged 20 million viewers, more than twice what networks get for their prime-time programming.
"Super Bowl XLV caps what is arguably the most successful season that any sports league has ever had," said Pat McDonough, senior vice president for insight and analysis at the Nielsen Co. "The number of people watching NFL games has never been higher, with 24 percent more people watching the average NFL game this year than just five years ago. The Super Bowl continues to be in a category of its own."
Football has become the communal event that television, in a splintered competitive world of dozens of networks, rarely provides outside of "American Idol" or the Oscars. Compelling story lines for the games and the growth in high-definition television help make the games compelling for viewers. The games also tend to be DVR-proof, with viewers wanting to see them live.
Traditions that have built around the game itself make the Super Bowl compelling to non-sports fans. Christina Aguilera's goof on the National Anthem, the Black-Eyed Peas halftime show and the dozens of commercials that companies debut on TV's biggest stage were water-cooler discussion topics along with the game on Monday.
Fox's "Glee" took advantage of the time slot directly after the game, reaching 26.8 million viewers for its special episode. It was the most-watched scripted entertainment program on TV since Fox's "House" aired after the Super Bowl three years ago, Nielsen said.
TiVo also judged the Snickers commercial featuring Richard Lewis and Roseanne Barr to be the top-rated commercial of the telecast. The company determines that through a calculation that takes in viewership and how many times people rewind their DVRs to watch the ad.
Second place was Best Buy's ad with Justin Bieber and Ozzy Osbourne.
"Funny ads made it to the top," said Tara Maitra, TiVo's vice president and general manager for audience research and advertising sales.
The Black-Eyed Peas' halftime show, with guests Usher and Slash, held its own. TiVo said it had nearly identical viewer engagement numbers as shows with classic rockers over the past two years.
People were much less likely to stop the game to repeat the ads in the second half, when the football action was compelling, Maitra said. No beer ads made TiVo's top 10 rated ads for the game.
The average Super Bowl viewer with a DVR either paused, rewound or fast-forwarded 145 times during the game, TiVo said.

Holy See Statement on Climate Change
"All Have a Responsibility to Protect the Environment"
NEW YORK, SEPT. 30, 2007 (Zenit) - Here is a statement from Monsignor Pietro Parolin, undersecretary for relations with states in the Vatican Secretariat of State, given Monday during an event on climate change.
* * *
Statement by Monsignor Pietro Parolin
Undersecretary for the Holy See�s Relations with States
62nd session of the U.N. General Assembly
High-level event on climate change titled "The Future Is in Our Hands: Addressing the Leadership Challenge of Climate Change"
New York, Sept. 24, 2007
Mr. Chairman,
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to express some considerations of the Holy See in light of what we have heard today from the preceding distinguished speakers.
Climate change is a serious concern and an inescapable responsibility for scientists and other experts, political and governmental leaders, local administrators and international organizations, as well as every sector of human society and each human person.
My delegation wishes to stress the underlying moral imperative that all, without exception, have a grave responsibility to protect the environment.
Beyond the various reactions to and interpretations of the reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the best scientific assessments available have established a link between human activity and climate change.
However, the results of these scientific assessments, and the remaining uncertainties, should neither be exaggerated nor minimized in the name of politics, ideologies or self-interest. Rather they now need to be studied closely in order to give a sound basis for raising awareness and making effective policy decisions.
In recent times, it has been unsettling to note how some commentators have said that we should actually exploit our world to the full, with little or no heed to the consequences, using a worldview supposedly based on faith. We strongly believe that this is a fundamentally reckless approach.
At the other extreme, there are those who hold up the earth as the only good, and would characterize humanity as an irredeemable threat to the earth, whose population and activity need to be controlled by various drastic means. We strongly believe that such assertions would place human beings and their needs at the service of an inhuman ecology.
I have highlighted these two extreme positions to make my point, but similar, though less extreme attitudes, would also clearly impede any sound global attempts to promote mitigation, adaptation, resilience and the safeguarding of our common future.
Mr. Chairman,
Since no country alone can solve the problems related to our common environment, we need to overcome self-interest through collective action. On the part of the international community, this presupposes the adoption of a coordinated, effective and prompt international political strategy capable of responding to such a complex question.
It would identify ways and means of mitigation and adaptation that are economically accessible to most, enhance sustainable development and foster a healthy environment.
The economic aspect of such ways and means should be seriously taken into account, considering that poor nations and sectors of society are particularly vulnerable to the adverse consequences of climate change, due to lesser resources and capacity to mitigate their effects and adapt to altered surroundings.
It is foreseeable that programs of mitigation and adaptation would meet a series of barriers and obstacles, not so much of a technological nature, but more so of a social nature, such as consumer behavior and preferences, and of a political nature, like government policies.
We must look at education, especially among the young, to change inbred, selfish attitudes toward consumption and exploitation of natural resources. Likewise, government policies giving economic incentives and financial breaks for more environmentally friendly technologies will give the private sector the positive signal they need to program their product development in such direction.
For instance, present-day research into energy mixes and improving energy efficiency would be made more attractive if accompanied by public funding and other financial incentives.
Mr. Chairman,
We often hear in the halls of the United Nations of �the responsibility to protect." The Holy See believes that applies also in the context of climate change. States have a shared �responsibility to protect� the world�s climate through mitigation/adaptation, and above all a shared �responsibility to protect� our planet and ensure that present and future generations be able to live in a healthy and safe environment.
The pace of achieving and codifying a new international consensus on climate change is not always matched by an equally expeditious and effective pace of implementation of such agreements.
States are free to adopt international conventions and treaties, but unless our words are matched with effective action and accountability, we would do little to avert a bleak future and may find ourselves gathering again not too long from now to lament another collective failure.
We sincerely hope that states will seize the opportunity that will be presented to them shortly at the next Conference on the Framework Convention on Climate Change in Bali.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

This was today's recipe set: Thanksgiving On The TrailKid approved I might add ;-)Thanksgiving On The Trail: Trashy, Easy and Good!Monday, Nov 19, 2007 This isn't one of the "it is good for you" meals. But, eh, you get it once a year, no? The meal is designed to feed 2-3 and it will make quite a bit. You can double the meat and use a 10 ounce can. If you do this, use the liquid in the can, and cut the water back to a generous 1/2 cup (instead of 3/4 cup).You can leave the butter out of the stuffing, it does though add a nice flavor and texture...and if you are hiking in November, the fat is a good thing for staying warm. Butter is easy to carry in the colder months as well, so take advantage!Being a meal to share this is one of the rare times I will suggest "bring bowls!". It makes the cooking easy to do as well as sharing the meal.For the items used:Simply Organic Roasted Turkey Gravy mixTrader Joe's dried sweetened cranberriesStove Top® Regional Blends instant stuffing in Monterey StyleTurkey Cranberry Gravy:In a pint freezer bag put:1 package Roasted Turkey Gravy mix1/4 cup dried sweetened cranberriesMark: Add can of chicken & 3/4 cup water.Stuffing: In a quart freezer bag put:1 package instant stuffingMark: Add 1/4 cup butter and 1 1/2 cups water.Mashed Potatoes:In a quart freezer bag put:3/4 cup instant mashed potatoes2 Tbsp dry milk1/4 tsp diced dried garlic1/4 tsp ground black pepperMark: Add 1 1/4 cups water.Also take:1/4 cup butter1 can turkey or chicken (5 ounces)In camp:The stuffing:The butter, diced up, and 1 1/2 cups boiling water. Stir well, and make sure the water gets mixed in.Gravy:Add in the can of turkey along with the liquid and 3/4 cup of boiling water. Stir very well and seal, pushing out the air carefully.Mashed Potatoes:Add in 1 1/4 cups boiling water, stirring well. Make sure to get any powder in the corners. Seal.Put the 3 bags into a cozy (you may need two cozies) for 10 minutes. Plate up and eat!

Free Pick
Free Pick
Southern Cal vs. Arizona State, 09/28/2013 22:30 EDT, Score: 41 - 62
Total: -110/+49½ Under
Sportsbook: JustBet
Result: Loss
*3 Star NCAA FB Free Pick* The USC Trojans offense has been awful all season, but this USC defense is elite. The Trojans are giving up only 11 points per game this season. Arizona State's offense is good, but this will be the best defense they have played against this year. The Sun Devils defense isn't top-notch, but I think they are good enough to keep this USC offense under control. At 49.5, I like the under in this one. This feels like a 24-17 type of game. Look for this one to stay under the posted total. Take the under.
*My Saturday Card has 11 big NCAA FB plays. You can get all 11 plays for just $5 per pick in my "All in One" Entire Card special package. Included is my CFB 5 Star TOP Play of the month. This is my biggest play of the season thus far!*

MASON CITY – Mercy Medical Center - North Iowa's Sleep Disorders Lab has received recognition as a Best of 2013 Sleep Lab Facility by Sleep Review, The Journal For Sleep Specialists. It is one of just 41 facilities to receive the award nationally and the only one in the state of Iowa who met the criteria to receive this recognition.
Alireza Yarahmadi, M.D., is the Medical Director for Mercy's Sleep Clinic.
"Mercy Sleep Clinic is the only multi-disciplinary sleep clinic in the North Iowa area that has incorporated a system-based practice of neurology, pulmonary, psychology, and on-site certified respiratory therapist and sleep technicians," Yarahmadi said.
Other medical providers at the Mercy Sleep Clinic are Neurologists Sant M. Hayreh, M.D., and Rajinder K. Verma, M.D., Otolaryngologist (ENT) Phillip C. Lee, M.D., and Pulmonologist Arvind M. Perathur, M.D.
Mercy Sleep Clinic monitors, diagnoses, and treats patients with obstructive sleep apnea, insomnia, narcolepsy, and many other sleep disorders. Sleep Apnea should be treated as any other chronic health condition. It can contribute to heart disease, hypertension, stroke, and other numerous serious health conditions.
"Our goal is to provide the best quality service possible to our patients and customers," Tina Eckholt, Neurodiagnostic Supervisor, said.

Whether you're lounging by the pool, skipping rocks on the river, walking by the ocean, or relaxing on the lake, you'll find that this swimsuit cover-up fits perfectly into the scene. Make one to match each of your swimsuits, and more to match your moods. One simply won't be enough!
4 sc per inch
When choosing a size, measure where you'd like the top of the cover-up to sit.
Sizes: 32" (34", 36", 38", 40", 42")
US pattern conventions usedch(s) = chain(s)sc(s) = single crochet(s)dc(s) = double crochet(s)sk = skipbet = between
Foundation: Chain 135 (144, 153, 162, 171, 180).
Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across. Ch 4. Turn.
Row 2: 5 dc in 4th sc. Ch 1, sk 3, dc in next sc. (Dc in next sc. Ch 1, sk 3. 5dc in next sc. Ch 1, sk 3. Dc in next sc.) 14 (15, 16, 17, 18, 19) times. Ch 3. Turn.
Row 3: 2 dc in first dc. Ch 1. Dc bet 2nd and 3rd dcs in shell. (Dc bet 3rd and 4th dcs in shell. Ch 1. 5 dc bet 2 dcs in pair. Ch 1. Dc bet 2nd and 3rd dcs in shell.) 14 (15, 16, 17, 18, 19) times. Dc bet 3rd and 4th dcs in shell. Ch 1. 3 dc in top of ch-3. Ch 4. Turn.
Row 4: 5 dc bet 2 dcs in pair. Ch 1. Dc bet 2nd and 3rd dcs in shell. (dc bet 3rd and 4th dcs in shell. Ch 1. 5 dc bet 2 dcs in pair. Ch 1. Dc bet 2nd and 3rd dcs in shell) 14 (15, 16, 17, 18, 19) times. Ch 3. Turn.
Rows 5 -?: Repeat Rows 3 and 4 until your cover-up is the desired length.
Finish off. Weave in ends.
Using yarn or embroidery floss, sew one button onto a corner, attaching it to the row of sc at the beginning. Sew the other button on the same row of sc, just over the first dc pair.
Button NoteWhen sewing the button, don't forget to leave a bit of space between the button and the fabric of the cover-up. Wrapping a bit of the yarn or floss a few times between the button and the fabric will solve this problem by making a shank.
If you'd like to use yarn to sew your buttons on, but can't fit it through the eye of a needle small enough to sew the button on, try this: Cut a short length of yarn, and split it in half, using only 1 or 2 strands to sew with.
Your button holes are in the first row of pattern stitching opposite the buttons. The first is the hole at the corner, and the second is between the last two dcs in a pair. When you button the cover-up, one stitch pattern will overlap.
Emily, This is the cutest little cover up I have seen. Can you tell me if the yarn is 100% cotton. (small) or the type that you would make an afgan with?
Thanks, Angie
Angel Hugs!
This is very cute. I'm going to make one for one of my Granddaughters
Thank you for sharing this. Very cute. I am going to make one for my daughter (11) and niece (5). They have matching swim suits.

World Tutoring
My name is Ariffa Bevin and I am an author and blogger from the Capital Region in New York. I'm starting an online tutoring service called English World Tutoring for those living abroad who wish to learn the English language.
We have a large population of immigrants and U.S. citizens who do not have English as their first language and can receive aid through many services here. Because of the growing demand of learning the English language, the family or friends of this population living abroad are most likely interested in the same thing. However, they face the obstacle of finding a dedicated teacher to help them. My goal is to bridge this gap by providing education of the English language to those interested throughout the world.
As one way of reaching my students, I would like to outreach to any of their friends and family living here. As such, I would like to send you my program's flyer in hopes that you may be able to post it and hand it to those whose family or friends may benefit. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Dear Prospective Research Participant:
The purpose of this research project is to determine whether people of one ethnicity can accurately identify emotions displayed by people of another ethnicity. This is a research project being conducted by Olivia Gafford, M.A. and James Turner, Ph.D. at Alliant International University as part of the requirement for earning a doctorate. You are invited to participate in this research project because you are a member of one of the ethnic groups being looked at in this study.
Your participation in this research study is voluntary. You may choose not to participate. If you decide to participate in this research survey, you may withdraw at any time. If you decide not to participate in this study or if you withdraw from participating at any time, you will not be penalized.
The procedure involves filling an online survey that will take approximately 15 minutes. Your responses will be confidential and we do not collect identifying information such as your name, email address or IP address. The survey questions will be about your ethnicity, your personality, and about pictures you will see. The questions about your ethnicity will simply ask you to choose from a list of ethnicities. The question about your age will ask you to verify that you are over eighteen years of age. The questions about your personality will ask you to indicate how much you agree with each of 30 sentences.. When you get to the pictures, there will be a list of emotions and you will be asked to indicate which emotion you believe the person in the picture is feeling. You will also be able to choose that none of the listed emotions apply. There will be a total of 28 pictures displayed, one at a time.
We will do our best to keep your information confidential. All data is stored in a password protected electronic format. To help protect your confidentiality, the surveys will not contain information that will personally identify you. The results of this study will be used for scholarly purposes only and may be shared with Alliant International University representatives.

In Loving Memory of Ruby Tom, founder of the San Diego Chinese Center
Jui Chiung Tom, known to friends and family as Ruby, passed away peacefully on October 16, 2011 at the Quarry Hill retirement home in Camden, Maine. She was 85. A native of Kunming, China, she came to the U.S. as a foreign student. She was the first Chinese coed to ever attend Arkansas College, where her American classmates dubbed her "Ruby" because they found her Chinese name impossible to pronounce. She planned to return to China, but the Chinese Revolution cut off her hopes of going home. From afar, through an exchange of carefully worded letters, she learned of the hardships suffered by her parents, whose large estate in Kunming was confiscated by the government. She never saw her parents again. After her marriage to Ernest B. Tom, Ruby settled in San Diego, where her difficulties as an immigrant inspired her to help other Chinese immigrants. Even while busily raising two children, she managed to earn a Master's degree in Social Services at San Diego State University. In 1972 she co-founded the Chinese Social Service Center, now known as the San Diego Chinese Center. 39 years later, the organization she created continues to provide social services and cultural programs for the San Diego community. With the re-opening of China to tourists, Ruby was finally able to visit her homeland several times, and she was delighted to meet nieces she'd never seen. A fearless traveler, she often made bold and surprising choices in life -- including a decision to get divorced after 32 years of marriage and live by her own rules. After moving to Maine in 2008, she settled in at Quarry Hill, where the extraordinary and compassionate care of the nursing staff eased her final days. A private family service is planned next summer in Kunming. She is survived by her daughter, novelist Terry (Tess) Gerritsen of Camden, Maine, her son Dr. Timothy Tom, an anesthesiologist in Corpus Christi, Texas, and her grandsons Adam and Joshua Gerritsen, and Christopher Tom. In lieu of flowers, the family would deeply appreciate donations to the American Heart Association:
Cultural Homestay International is currently looking for loving families to host a high school foreign exchange student. All you need to provide is a bed and food. Anything else outside of the house, they have their own funds. They have students that come from all over the world. Right now they have Vietnam, Germany, China, Slovakia, Colombia, Spain, Thailand, Mongolia, Belgium. The list goes on and on. Also, if you have a particular interest, you can find a student who might have the same interest as you. You can build a long time friendship and go visit them in their country. Many people have done that. The website is www.chinet.org
Email Kelly if you have any questions at firstname.lastname@example.com
She can send you a lot more information.
They have so many students that they need to place within the next 2 months, so if you can't host for the 5 or 10 months, they are also looking for "Welcome Families" and thats for only 1 or 2 months.

Gumball Wars. One of the hardest tricks to pull off in animation is to give inanimate and inhuman objects recognisable quirks, traits and characteristics.
Gumball Wars by Scott Thierauf succeeds in spades. The two gumball machines have very distinct personalities and Thierauf uses them to great effect in this mini masterpiece. It is very funny too – I just love the way the blue gumball machine snickers! If this little story has any moral it is perhaps that patience has its own rewards.

The East might be a thriller flick, but the style from last night's premiere was anything but riveting. Don't get us wrong, we can appreciate a good monochrome moment. But in this case we're left wondering: Where's the color?
We're talking to Ellen Page, Zoe Kazan, and especially, Brit Marling. You co-wrote and star in this film — this was your time to shine, girl! We love a hot-off-the-runway Prabal Gurung look as much as the next guy, but we would have loved to see Marling in a vibrant print or high-octane hue.
Take a look at the one-note styles (we threw in Alexander Skarsgård for good measure), and if you're as starved for pigment and flourish as we are, take a moment to bask in all of the bold Cannes confections.
