Earlier this spring, my husband and my father flew to the other side of the world for a month-long missions trip. Eight children missing their daddy, an unwelcome skunk family taking up residence in our crawl space, and the usual "Daddy's Gone" catastrophes — but in the midst of that, I had a special treat.
My mom came to stay with us.
For the first time since I became a mother myself, I had the privilege of attending a month-long mothering instruction course – 24/7. Unless your mother lives with you, you're probably limited to short-term observations of your mother. For me, it's especially true since we live a thousand miles apart.
I learned a lot from my mother that month. It struck me that many of us who are still in the day-in, day-out routine of young children living with us resort to "lowest common denominator mothering."
Lowest Common Denominator Mothering (LCDM)=
The unfortunate habit of observing what mothers at the same stage of life as you are doing.
The result of LCDM is that you comfort yourself into thinking that you can't be all bad because everyone else is making the same mistakes.
An example of LCDM — "I yelled at the children last night and I felt so awful afterwards! Oh, you do that too? That makes me feel so much better." OR "I'm always so impatient with the kids – I'm glad to know I'm not the only one!"
There is a certain amount of encouragement in knowing that other mothers aren't perfect, either, but while my mother was with us, I was reminded of the incredible value of learning from older women who are exemplifying years of godly living and parenting. Of course, God thought of that same thing long before I did. Titus 2:3-5 tells us that older women should regularly be instructing younger women. So why do we frequently ignore those sage words and seek out the lowest common denominator example?
From my mother, I learned that a sleepless night is not sufficient reason to be short-tempered. When I have a bad night's sleep (oh, that's actually every night), I come out of my bedroom in the morning like a bear. A really unhappy, don't-mess-with-me bear. My mom was short on sleep much of the time she stayed with us but she still managed to wake up with a sweet smile and patient responses to her persistent, energetic grandchildren.
I also learned that a soft voice is always preferable to an angry, irritable one. Funny thing – it seems like God had that same idea. Unfortunately, we "younger" mothers are guilty of LCDM. We seem to read verses like Ephesians 4:29 and think "Oh, it's just so hard to be patient and soft-spoken when I'm short on sleep or the kids are fighting. Besides, all mothers lose their tempers and yell at their children."
But over and over I was amazed to see how my mother spoke kindly, and even gently, when the two year old and four year old would pile on her lap for yet another book, while the eight year old was pounding out another piece forte on the piano — while the skunk smell continued to pervade the house and the noodles were boiling over. My first reaction? Yell. My mom's reaction? Gentle speech. Would you like to guess which one was more effective?
Another lesson learned was that there is never an excuse for skipping time with God. This lesson I actually do remember from my mom when we were kids. Her Bible was always close at hand and we were strictly instructed to not interrupt her in her time with her heavenly Father. This had a lifelong impact on me and now, thank God, my own children are benefiting from seeing her example firsthand.
Of course my mom isn't perfect, or so she claims. Yet I think we can all learn some mighty valuable lessons from the generation above us.
The next time you are frustrated, overwhelmed, and sinking in a pile of dirty diapers, dirty dishes, and dirty children, resist the temptation of LCDM. Don't call or text your friend and commiserate together. Take the time to talk to someone who has gone through the mothering process and has come out shining like gold. An elderly lady at church, your mother, your mother-in-law; find a godly woman whose example is worth following. Then listen to her advice and follow it.
Your entire family – and even your future grandchildren – will be blessed when you break the LCDM habit.
Oh, and Happy Mother's Day, Mom!
Gwen's eight children are under no false illusions that their mother is perfect. With God's grace, though, Gwen and her husband, John, continue to train them for His glory.

Strasburg's hot stuff creates some interesting dilemmas
Have a question for Tim?Tim Sullivan Mailbag
Stephen Strasburg said he was trying to pitch "to contact," to lean on his defense, to limit his pitch count.
At this, Strasburg was awful. It's a good thing, then, that he is so great.
San Diego State's overpowering right-hander strives for baseball efficiency from beneath a burden of electric stuff. He throws a 100 mph fastball and a curve so sharp it could slice pineapples. He might try to keep his fielders involved, but this fellow pitches to contact as if he were flinging pebbles while the hitters were swinging spaghetti strands.
"He's a freak," Aztecs coach Tony Gwynn said, in summary. "He's trying to keep the ball down and let them put it in play. But when you've got overpowering stuff like that and it's down in the zone, he's a tough guy to square up."
This was a few minutes after Strasburg struck out 16 hitters across 6 2/3 innings in Thursday night's 5-2 victory against Nevada, just after Gwynn stopped giggling about the notion of his ace pitching "to contact." Not only had Strasburg recorded 16 out of 20 possible outs by strikeout, but he retired more hitters on swinging strikes (11) than he permitted balls to be put in play (9).
As Tim McCarver said of Steve Carlton, the batter barely exists for Stephen Strasburg. He's playing, as McCarver called it, "an elevated game of catch."
"I really go out there with the mentality that guys shouldn't hit me," Strasburg said. "I know it's a part of the game and I really look forward to when guys square me up and they put me in that crucial situation.
"I just want to see if I can get out of it, you know, make a quality pitch to get a ground-ball double play or punch a guy out in a big spot. That's what I look forward to."
Otherwise, where's the challenge? Two starts into his junior year, Strasburg's college record reflects sustained dominance: 207 strikeouts in 146 2/3 innings against only 87 hits allowed. The lone collegian to crack the U.S. Olympic baseball team last summer, Strasburg has emerged as the clear favorite for Washington's first overall selection in baseball's amateur draft in June.
He is not pitching to contact so much as he is pitching to contract, toward a deal that figures to be worth $8 million or more. Much as big-league ballclubs appreciate the ability to induce ground balls, they rarely lavish that kind of loot on an amateur pitcher unless he shows the ability to miss bats.
This is where Stephen Strasburg excels, and why roughly 20 major-league scouts huddled behind home plate with their notebooks and radar guns Thursday night at Tony Gwynn Stadium. What they witnessed was a pitcher who is more advanced than the guy who finished second nationally in strikeouts last season, a guy who was clocked as high as 102 mph without corresponding wildness.
Granted, Nevada was overmatched. Still, Strasburg was stunning. En route to a sixth-inning strikeout, Nevada shortstop Kevin Rodland flailed at a first-pitch Strasburg fastball and might have missed it by a foot. Thus chastened, Rodland showed bunt on the next pitch.
"It happens a lot," Gwynn said. "You get a guy who's overpowering like (Strasburg) and guys go up there with the intent of hitting the first fastball they see. Then, a lot of times, it's got so much giddy-up on it, he gets it by 'em, and they immediately have to try to change their game plan a little bit.
"He's not just throwing it down the middle and saying, 'Hey, I'm going to overpower you.' He's trying to pitch."

To cyclists, it's a given that Cincinnati desperately needs more bike lanes. But recent research shows bike lanes don't just pose advantages for cyclists; they can also help local economies and public health.
Anyone who's traveled downtown on a bicycle can attest to how scary the roads and sidewalks can be at times. Cyclists know cars and pedestrians will rarely accommodate anyone on a bike, even a person who's just trying to get to work, go to a bar or exercise. Not only can that lead to injuries, but it can also diminish cyclists' will to go out altogether.
For Cincinnati, that psychological dissuasion can produce worse economic outcomes. Just like the permanence of streetcar tracks can encourage businesses to develop along a route, bike lanes can foster business along their own routes.
In 2012, the Oregon Transportation Research and Education Consortium (OTREC) found cyclists in Portland, Ore., were more likely to return to convenience stores, drinking places and restaurants and spend more money overall. Non-cyclists usually spent more money during single visits, but that didn't make up for cyclists returning to the venues more often.
The economic benefits were also found in the New York City Department of Transportation's 2012 "Measuring the Street" study, with local businesses on Ninth Avenue seeing a 49-percent increase in sales after a bike lane was built — much better than the 3-percent borough-wide average increase.
The New York City study also found a 58-percent reduction in injuries to all street users on Ninth Avenue, vindicating cyclists on the public health merits of building safer streets.
With that safety came a 177-percent increase in bicycle volumes in New York City, which means the bike lanes may have encouraged more people to take up biking.
For a city and country currently wrangling with an obesity epidemic (Cincinnati's obesity rate was 31.3 percent in 2010), that should be a welcome prospect.
The public health merits aren't exclusive to New York City, either.
A February 2012 study from Canadian researchers methodically looked at route types and injuries in Toronto and Vancouver to find out whether bike lanes are actually safer. The result: Bike lanes can reduce the chance of an injury by nearly half. The researchers concluded, "The lower risks on quiet streets and with bike-specific infrastructure along busy streets support the route-design approach used in many northern European countries. Transportation infrastructure with lower bicycling injury risks merits public health support to reduce injuries and promote cycling."
The study's findings swing both ways. Cyclists obviously face fewer injuries, but drivers and pedestrians also get to worry about fewer collisions.
For the Cincinnati area, more emphasis on biking could also help reduce the region's air pollution problem, which a report from the American Lung Association recently found to be among the worst in the nation. When someone chooses to go to the grocery store, work or bar on a bicycle instead of a car, they're helping reduce the amount of particle and ozone pollution in the air, which can help lead to healthier outcomes — lower rates of cancer and respiratory disease in particular — for the region as a whole.
The good news is city officials have already made some strides to build more infrastructure for bicycles. The parking plan, which, if it survives court battles and an ongoing referendum effort, would lease the city's parking assets to the Port Authority for a large one-time infusion of money and smaller annual payments, would help the city acquire the Wasson Line Right-of-Way for the development of a bike trail. The city says the development would "positively affect the residential, commercial, educational and recreational quality of life in the neighborhoods of Evanston, Hyde Park, Mount Lookout and Oakley."
Plan Cincinnati, the city's first master plan since 1980, also pushes bike lanes as a major alternative to traditional methods of transportation. City government hasn't committed funds to the master plan, but city officials, including City Council, have endorsed the plan as the city's ongoing blueprint.
Given the research and the city administration's goal to outgrow budgetary problems with a stronger economy, those seem like perfectly sensible plans. But with the city facing a $35 million deficit in fiscal year 2014 and the parking plan wrangled in a referendum effort and court battles, it's going to require a lot of public support to finalize the plans' implementations.

I like it!
that pc is sick.
it has chicken pocks
lol i'm outnumbered!!
at least they are stickers and not paint
maybe it's smallpox.
or herpes.
I would not ride that bike.
yeah thats what i said... it looked like spray paint for a sec cause the pics are so blurry
Can you be King of the Mountains at a velodrome?
yeah, you have to ride the whole race on the fence.
I actually like it a lot better than some other bikes posted. It's a good price too.
I sold a 2008 frameset for close to a thousand dollars not to long ago.
That's a good price....
It's obvious why tho..
I live in Atlanta and I found this CL ad as well. I was excited until I saw the chicken pox. Ughhh ...
Buy it, remove stickers, sell for more
They're ugly but they're just stickers. I think polka dots would look okay, but not that color.
They are just stickers? OMG I need to buy it ...
I saw it on the ATL craigslist too. I gotta say, not a huge fan of the chicken pox. That bike needs an oatmeal bath.
Haha, yeah, I saw this ad earlier. I dont think it looks too bad.
I just can't imagine putting that many stickers on a bike and it not looking tacky. I mean, even if it were painted on, it would still be a bit of an eyesore, but the stickers, I would think, just look cheap.
If I had 800 in cash. And if I weren't at work.
That's a good price, with good parts. I actually like the stickers.

(StatePoint) What do you do with your unused prescription pills and over-the-counter medications? Do you throw them away? Flush them down the toilet? Simply leave them in your cabinet for a rainy day?
Doing any of the above can provoke tragic consequences including enabling the drugs to get into the wrong hands or find their way into drinking water and irrigation supplies. That's why it's crucial to safely dispose of unused prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs, veterinary medications and nutritional supplements.
According to the 2010 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, one-quarter of first-time illegal drug users 12 years and older began by using prescription drugs non-medically.
Prescription drugs are abused far more frequently than illicit drugs for one simple reason: they can be found in almost every home, free for the taking. What's more, drug overdose deaths, mostly related to addictive painkillers, rose for the 11th straight year in 2010, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
And while it sounds quick and easy to flush pills down the toilet or throw them in the wastebasket, this method can be harmful to the environment and to people's health. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, nearly 80 percent of recently tested rivers contained traces of pharmaceuticals, including antibiotics, steroids, hormones and contraceptives.
So how can the average person go from being part of the problem to being part of the solution?
Begin by examining every prescription you bring into your home. Ask your doctor to ensure he or she is prescribing in the amount you will use.
Consider locking your medicine cabinet or moving prescriptions to a secure location, safe from the unwelcome explorations of children or intruders.
Remove any leftover drugs from your home promptly and dispose of them in a way that has as little environmental impact
as possible.
"Drug take-back programs are a great way to get rid of unused medications," says John Waffenschmidt, Vice President of Community Affairs and Environmental Science at Covanta Energy, the largest owner and operator of "Energy-from-Waste" facilities in North America. Covanta works with organizations to provide safe disposal of medications collected by drug take-back programs. The company does so free of charge, safely disposing of drugs at its facilities.
Since its inception in 2010, Covanta's Rx4Safety program is responsible for having destroyed more than 600,000 pounds of unwanted medications nationwide. Partnerships like these have resulted in the proliferation of successful drug take-back programs that allow prescription drugs to be dropped off at secure locations, such as police stations or at special events held throughout the year, for transport to facilities where they can be destroyed safely.
If you think you may have unwanted prescription pills in your cabinet, take the time to collect them for the Drug Enforcement Agency's National Drug Take-Back Day on April 27, 2013.
Drug collection drop boxes in Ada County
Starting April 1, unwanted medications and old prescriptions can be dropped off to the Eagle Fire and Police Public Safety Building, 1119 East State Street, Suite 240/260. The clearly labeled green bin is in the lobby. Boise City Police drop box location is at 333 N. Sailfish 83704 and is open 8 am – 5 pm, Monday thru Friday. The Ada County Sheriff's Office is at 7200 Barrister Dr.; access to the collection bin is available 8 am – 4 pm, Monday thru Friday. The Garden City Police Department is at 301 E 50th and is open 8 am – 5 pm, Monday thru Friday. Meridian Police Department is at 1401 E Watertower St.
The medications may be bagged and liquid containers need to be in their original containers and sealed in plastic bags to prevent spills. Please do not leave items that won't fit in the drop box chute. (Ask at the counter for assistance.) Items not accepted are needles, lancets, pen needles, aerosol cans, bloody or infections waste, hydrogen peroxide, thermometers and IV bags.
The Eagle, Boise, Garden City, Meridian and Ada County Sheriff's Office program is for residential use only. Medications from commercial facilities are prohibited by law.

Something from Nothing
Billions of miles beyond the orbit of Pluto, in the so-called interstellar boundary region where the Sun's territory gradually gives way to interstellar space, there's a whole lot of surprising physics going on.
Data taken by the Los Alamos–built particle imager aboard NASA's IBEX (Interstellar Boundary Experiment) satellite revealed an unexpected "ridge" of atoms running through most of the boundary region. With no explanation for why this band of matter exists, mission scientists are as perplexed about it as they are excited.
"This band was not predicted by any of our models or theories—not even hinted at," says the Laboratory's Herbert Funsten, leader of the collaboration that designed, built, and tested the imager. "It speaks to how much more there is to learn about our own little corner of space."
To their credit, scientists have learned a tremendous amount about the galactic neighborhood. They know that the space between the nearby stars, the local interstellar medium (LISM), is filled with protons and neutral hydrogen atoms in the form of a moderately hot (6000°K) "cloud" some 30 light-years across. The LISM also sports cosmic rays, magnetic fields, and a smidgen of heavy elements, molecules, and dust. But with a density of only 0.1 atom per cubic centimeter, the LISM is rightly said to be filled with next to nothing.
Our Sun and solar system are cruising through the LISM at a respectable 10 miles per second. However, the so-called solar wind, composed of highly energetic hydrogen ions that race outwards from the Sun in all directions at well over a million miles an hour, pushes the LISM out of the way. Thus the wind creates an immense bubble within the LISM known as the heliosphere. Aside from delineating the Sun's domain, the heliosphere helps protect Earth and the rest of the solar system from dangerous cosmic rays.
The heliosphere has structure, however. As the solar wind spreads outward, it becomes less dense, and at about 9 billion miles from the Sun, its density becomes roughly equal to the LISM's. At that distant boundary, called the termination shock, fastmoving solar wind ions occasionally collide with LISM particles, with the net result that the solar wind slows down and heats up as it transitions from a supersonic gale into a subsonic breeze. Beyond the termination shock lies a thick interaction region, perhaps 3–4 billion miles across, where the ions finally come to rest—the edge of the heliosphere.
Scientists knew very little about the termination shock or the interaction region. After all, no light or radiation emanates from either location. Yet scientists were able to gather data from and map those regions by cleverly exploiting a neat piece of physics. During a collision, an energetic hydrogen ion can steal the electron from a slow LISM hydrogen atom and become an energetic neutral atom—an ENA. The neutral atoms can be detected by one of two particle imagers aboard IBEX: IBEX-Hi, built by Funsten's team, and IBEX-Lo. The two detect high- or low-energy ENAs, respectively.
"The ENAs go in whatever direction the ions were heading the instant before the collision," explains Funsten. "As ions, they were forced to spiral around and follow the Sun's magnetic field lines, and if you trace out an ion's trajectory after it is heated at the termination shock, you'll see that it frequently points back to Earth. A tiny fraction of ions becomes neutral at just the right instant to travel straight into our imager."
As IBEX circles Earth in a highly elliptical orbit that extends nearly to the moon, the two imagers get a direct view of a small slice of the heliosphere. Each records the number of ENAs with a specific energy that come from that slice. Then as Earth orbits the Sun, more of the heliosphere gets sampled, allowing mission scientists to construct a contour map showing the source of the ENAs.
As summarized in one of five papers recently published online by Science magazine, IBEX-Hi recorded a factor of 2–3 times more ENAs than expected coming from a circular band that runs most of the way around the heliosphere but that is not centered about the Sun's direction of travel. Many believe the galaxy's magnetic field somehow shifts the ENA distribution, but much work awaits scientists as they try to understand how a band of something emerges from nothing.

Nice Burner
This review is from: LACIE IEEE 1394 / USB 2.0 d2 Blu-ray Burner 12X Model 301906U
Pros: I own a 2009 Macbook Pro, and used a kit to replace my internal optical drive with a solid state boot disk. This fulfilled every need that the average user will use their internal drive for- it burns and reads DVD. I can't speak for its LightScribe abilities, as I haven't used them.
Cons: Only one con, but this ended up being a big one for me- my MacBook, which will boot off of any external FireWire drive (I've tested it with several), will not boot from this drive with a bootable CD or DVD. I bought it to install a Linux distro via a live CD (I didn't want to do a complicated USB workaround), but it didn't work.
Other Thoughts: Honestly, this is the perfect DVD reader/writer for the vast majority of users. However, be wary if you plan on using it as a Mac boot drive.

Great on most computers
This review is from: LACIE IEEE 1394 / USB 2.0 d2 Blu-ray Burner 12X Model 301906U
Pros: - I love the portability. I can use it with my mac and my pcs. I just move it to the computer I want to burn from, or one that is not being used.
Cons: - It doesn't work on all my pcs, especially the older ones. A couple of my pcs just won't recognize the drive, and one locks up. Luckily, I've got a few computers that it works great with, or else I'd return it
Other Thoughts: I am now using this to back up all of our projects which usually run more than 100 gigs. The Toast software allows you to drag the entire folder over, and it will calculate how many discs it will take, and tell you when yo change them. If you've ever tried to back up using the built in mac drive, you'll appreciate that feature.

text: Japan prepares for yet another decade of whaling Politics 26 September 12 by Liat Clark Shutterstock When reports surfaced that the Nisshin Maru, Japan's Fisheries Agency's 8,000-tonne whaling vessel, was in dire need of repair, hopes were raised that this season's expeditions would have to be called off. Unfortunately, no sooner had the news surfaced, the agency responded by reassuring the globe's anti-whaling activists that it would indeed go ahead with this year's hunt, and that the repairs would provide it with at least another decade of service.Japan has been whaling for centuries, in what has now become a huge commercial enterprise -- meat from around 1,000 whales (mainly minke) reach the market each year. In recent years, figures have become to flail, however. In 2011 and 2012 the annual Antarctic hunts were called off early after vessels were harassed by activists, and earlier this year it was revealed that companies failed to shift 908 tonnes of its 1,211-tonne haul. With figures like that, one might assume the Japanese whaling community would readjust its expectations. It did not. In the wake of Japan's devastating tsunami and earthquake, the government revealed it took £18.5 million from the disaster recovery fund to add to the annual £3.87m subsidy used to keep the industry afloat.The Nisshin Maru usually heads off in November, returning in spring, but it was hoped the repairs would delay its launch. The vessel is integral to the season's success -- smaller ships chase and harpoon the whales, before dragging the bodies to the Nisshin Maru to be butchered, chilled and transported.Fisheries Agency spokesperson Tatsuya Nakaoku instead revealed that plans to repair the vessel were underway and that there was "no possibility" it would miss the hunt, or, important "scientific whale research", as Nakaoku put it."As research whaling is important, we'd like to conduct major repairs (on the ship) so that it can be used for at least ten years," said Nakaoku. The excuse of scientific research has been used to allow the country to continue whaling after the 1986 ban on commercial whaling. Bizarrely, it claims the practice is useful in proving that the current whale population is abundant. In the face of protests, a global recession and natural disaster, Japan's whaling vessels have not missed one season in the quarter of a century since it became big business. Even Australia attempted to take the nation to court over its disregard for international law in 2010, a threat that has so far been unsuccessful. According to the article in Japan's Asahi Shimbun that first reported the news, politicians commented that if the hunt were called off, the country would appear "weak-kneed". Japan is of course by no means the only country to continue whaling. The fact that its population's interest in the meat appears to be waning does however suggest it is holding on to a tradition that is now neither profitable, nor particularly beneficial to its global reputation.

For full Swimming World coverage of the entire 2011 FINA World Championships, including all videos and recaps, visit our Event Landing Page.
SHANGHAI, China, July 21. CHEN Ruolin provided China its seventh gold medal in diving at the 2011 FINA World Championships with a victorious effort in the women's 10-meter platform event.
Chen finished the finale with 405.30 points to break into the world title spot for the first time in the event after back-to-back silvers in 2007 and 2009.
"I was defeated by Hu Yadan at the World Cup, and it harmed my confidence," Chen said. "The key to my victory today is consistency. Hu is still young, she needs to take part in more competition to mature. Next I will focus on the London Olympics."
The aforementioned Hu Yadan finished just more than 10 points back of Chen with a silver-winning performance of 394.00 to give China yet another 1-2 medal stand sweep.
"I felt so nervous that I floundered on Dive 2 and 4," Hu said. "I did not think too much before the last dive, just hoped I can dive at normal level. It's a pity that I did not win the gold. Chen Ruolin is more experienced than me."
Mexico's Paula Espinosa, the defending champion, settled for bronze with a tally of 377.15 points. Canada's Meaghan Benfeito nearly made the podium with a fourth-place 375.50, while USA's Brittany Viola took 10th overall with 308.05 points.
In men's three-meter springboard semifinal action, China's He Chong and Qin Kai were well ahead of the pack. He edged Qin for the top seed, 523.50 to 523.25. He is looking to defend his world title gained in 2009 in Rome, and keep China's gold-medal sweep hopes alive.
"I made some changes on dive 5 (407C)," He said. "My diving in preliminary and semifinal was not good enough, so I will try to fit in later on. Maybe I cared about difficulty at first but now I hope I can get higher score with lower degree of difficulty."
Russia's Ilya Zakharov qualified a distant third with 470.50 points, while Mexico's Julian Sanchez (467.15) and USA's Troy Dumais (466.80) earned fourth and fifth seeds. Dumais is the reigning silver medalist in the event.
"Today, I did really good job," Dumais said. "I am getting better and better. I will enjoy the water and board in tomorrow's final. I like diving very much. It's not my career, but my hobby. I like competing and try to be the best."

Aztec football preview and review: Week 9 vs. UNLV
2 -- Freshman quarterback Nick Sherry is pretty good
Nick Sherry won the start this year by beating out junior incumbent Caleb Herring. After eight games, he's already second in the school's record books in passing touchdowns for a freshman QB (11). He also has 1,842 passing yards, and needs only 32 more to move into second place for passing yards by a freshman.
3 -- The Rebels can throw the ball, but scoring has been an issue
Slinging it around will only get you so far if you can't get the ball into the end zone, and that's been UNLV's problem this season. The Rebels have only managed to score touchdowns on 54 percent of their trips to the red zone. That's a huge problem. As a result, they're averaging 24.2 points per game – which simply will not get the job done against the Aztecs' 38 points per game average.
4 -- UNLV can't stop the run
All other troubles aside, this might be what sinks UNLV against the Aztecs. The Rebels are 100th in the country in rush defense, and they've allowed opponents to ground-and-pound for an average of 205 yards per game. Even without Katz's running ability, the Aztecs have a ferocious ground game that's the spear point of their offense. SDSU puts up about 216 rushing yards every time it hits the field. Unless the Rebels figure out a way to stop the run, Adam Muema and Walter Kazee could pound UNLV into submission.
5 -- UNLV needs to get to the QB
This might be a good game for Aztecs' QB Adam Dingwell to make his debut as the Aztecs' starter. The Rebels defense hasn't been very effective getting to the QB all season. That's been a problem for the Aztecs this year too, but this UNLV team is even worse when it comes to mauling opposing QBs. They're 95th in the country in quarterback sacks, and a horrific 106th in tackles for loss. As long as he makes good decisions and doesn't turn the football over, Dingwell could have a field day at Qualcomm Stadium this weekend.

Indianapolis, IN (Sports Network) - Paul George scored 27 points as the
Indiana Pacers got their post All-Star break schedule off to a roaring start
with a 125-91 trouncing of the New York Knicks from Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
George added eight rebounds while making good on 11-of-19 field goal attempts
in leading Indiana to its highest scoring output of the season. David West
contributed 18 points and nine boards to the rout, while Lance Stephenson
registered 14 points in a game the Pacers never trailed at any stage.
The win also moved Indiana within just a half-game of the slumping Knicks for
the second-best record in the Eastern Conference.
Tyson Chandler compiled 19 points and 11 rebounds for New York, which limped
into the break off consecutive home losses to the Los Angeles Clippers and
Toronto and mustered a subpar 33.7 shooting percentage against Indiana's
stingy defense.
Carmelo Anthony went just 7-of-21 from the field in finishing with 15 points,
over 13 below his season average.

LAUSANNE, Switzerland, February 2. MONTENEGRO, Serbia and Hungary confirmed their superiority in the respective groups of the European preliminaries of the FINA Men's Water Polo World League 2013, held in various cities of the Old Continent on February 1-2.
In Group A, Montenegro got its fourth consecutive win by beating at home (in Kotor) the Croatian squad by 6-5. With this triumph, the Montenegrins almost assured their presence in the Super Final, while Croatia (2012 Olympic champions) will not play the decisive tournament of the competition. Greece, with its comfortable triumph (15-4) in Istanbul against Turkey, can theoretically finish first of the group in case of victories against the two Balkan teams.
In Novi Sad, playing for Group B, Serbia assured the presence in the Super Final of the competition by easily defeating Germany by 13-4.
In Group C, Olympic silver medallist and 2011 World champion Italy could not make it in Volgograd, losing after the penalty shootout 12-10 to Russia (at the end of the regular time, the two teams were tied at 8-8). In the lead of the group, Hungary triumphed over Romania in Debrecen by the minimal difference of one goal — 9-8. The Magyars also totalled their fourth win in four games played so far.

has somebody already tried this? is this an update of the native vista version of movie maker or is it a port of the old movie maker for XP?
From the link:
Movie Maker 2.6 is for Windows Vista users whose computer cannot run the Vista version of Movie Maker.
To test if your computer can run the Vista version of Movie Maker:
1. From the Start menu, click All Programs.
2. Click Windows Movie Maker.
If Movie Maker launches, you should not download version 2.6.
If you get an error message that says, "Windows Movie Maker cannot start because your video card does not support the required level of hardware acceleration or hardware acceleration is not available", download and install Movie Maker 2.6.
Great, now I can use Movie Maker on my tablet.
It's really just the XP version, by the way. Also, it doesn't uninstall the original installation of Movie Maker.

I agree! Thanks for this great list of word games!
If you're a word-game addict then I highly recommend checking out Letter Stack Free - it's an addictive fast-paced word game where you challenge friends to see who can unjumble and stack words the fastest. You drag and stack the blocks to form words, and the faster you stack words, the more points you get.
It's available for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch -

You do realize this list is only going to turn us word game junkies into Zombies. You should put Bananagrams on the list. It's like Scrabble without a board. I own all you recommendations except for Scruzzlewords, Wordigo and Woffo. I'll trust you and get them.
Great list. I will own all of these by days end. Thanks for not putting Quordy, Scramble and all the other Boggle rip offs on the list. I did a review on WordSnake and agree that it is a cool hybrid of Scrabble. Wordigo is a good app. Try WORDJONG by Gameblend Studios, a mix of Scrabble and Mahjong.
I think we should make every kid in 4th thru 12th grade play these games. It would improve our educational system immensely. If I were to add a game to this it would be Bananagrams or Word Solitaire.
Great list. I already play Woffo and Imangi. Add Moxie and Word Fu to the list.
Lots to try on this list and suggestions. I just got the WordJong app. Really fun. Thanks for putting this together Tonka.
My pleasure. I'm testing out two new apps, Word Droppings and Befuddled. I'll let everyone know about those.

Here's a great word game for two players of two teams of players. Excellent iTunes review.
A fun, simple and refreshing word game for two or more players. Simply talk for two minutes on the subject given. Cover every angle you can think of: descriptions, associations, facts, phrases, sayings, famous people, fictional characters and myths. Remember, there are no wrong answers. How many of the eight key words and phrases associated with the subject will you cover? Score points for each one you mention.
Diversity is the key, this is a game where breadth of knowledge and lateral thinking is rewarded – but don't miss out the obvious answers too! For example, tell me something interesting about ... apples. You'll get a point for saying apples are a fruit, but will you talk about William Tell splitting an apple with his arrow or mention New York as the Big Apple?
For two players or two teams
200 categories to play
Suitable for all the family
Devised in United Kingdom and some answers make reference to UK culture

I first played "Tell me something interesting" with some lovely friends after dinner. It's a great mix of answers so everyone can join in. As someone who's not very good at trivial pursuits it's perfect for me as I tend to get the more "creative" answers. My husband can be relied upon to get the more intellectual ones!
We've played it a number of times since, however, it really came into its own during the school holidays with my niece and nephew (13 & 11 yrs. respectively). It kept us occupied after dinner, on train rides and during the long waits for rides at Chessington. They had a great time playing and as soon as we were sat still for more than 5 minutes requested we play another game. We modified the rules slightly, instead of passing the phone between players, I kept the phone, waited until they'd got the first few answers and then gave them clues to the rest. It tested my knowledge to ensure I came up with credible clues and it allowed them to get a significant amount of answers each time. If they didn't know the answers it was something we could look up or chat about. This brilliant app has kept us occupied for hours - Thank you!!

I recently released a game on GooglePlay called Wordumz. It's a word-finding game, very absorbing and a lot of fun. There's a free version and a paid version available, also Scots Gaelic and Irish Gaelic version.
I set out to create a word game I'd enjoy playing myself and I'm completely hooked on it. If you enjoy word-finding games you'll enjoy Wordumz.
Search for "Wordumz" on GooglePlay and you'll find it.

LONDON (ShareCast) - AIM-listed Cameroon-focused iron ore explorer Afferro Mining (Other OTC: AFRIF - news) saw its shares slide sharply on Thursday morning after it issued an update on its disussions with potential strategic partners.
The group is currently engaged in on-going negotiations regarding a potential offer for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of the company or the option to form a strategic partnership to further develop the Nkout iron ore project.
Afferro reoprted that talks with International Mining and Infrastructure Corporation plc. as well as those with potential strategic partners were progressing.
However, negotiations with Jindal Steel and Power Limited had been terminated, the company reported, saying that Jindal's indicative offer fundamentally undervalued the company's quality, strategically located portfolio of iron ore projects in Cameroon and strong balance sheet.
The group statement said: "Whilst the company has received approaches from a number of interested parties, there can be no certainty that a formal offer will be forthcoming."
Afferro's share price was down 8.49% to 72.75p at 08:47 on Thursday morning.

NEW DELHI: Congress today came out in strong defence of Himachal state unit chief Virbhadra Singh, who is facing graft allegations, saying they were "far more political than in substance" and were intended to affect the assembly poll campaign.
"The timing of the whole revelation is questionable. I am very suspicious about the timing. When he is busy campaigning, to bind him (with such allegations) in the middle of the campaign shows it is far more political than in substance," party spokesperson Sandeep Dikshit told reporters.

How to have a Relaxing Spa Bachelorette Party on any Budget!
If the brides idea of a great time is a soothing zen music, a glass of wine and someone rubbing her feet then a SPA BACHELORETTE PARTY may be just what the doctor ordered!
See below some ideas for this Out-of-the-Ordinary Bachelorette Party!
What's your Budget? The first place to start is with the budget – and with a SPA Bachelorette Party you can have a great party on almost ANY BUDGET. I have broken down the ideas into 3 categories: Pampered Partier (the sky is the limit!), Discount Diva (moderate budget), Broke Bachelorette (low budget – free)!
Pampered Partier Style ($$$$)– When budget is not a concern you can go all out with a Spa Bachelorette Party. Book the bachelorettes in a 4 star resort with a large Spa Facility like The Ritz-Carlton. You can relax by the pool and plan many spa treatments and make it a long weekend full of great services such as facials, massages and mud baths. Another option is to go all out with a wellness weekend that would include spa treatments as well as diet, exercise and wellness seminars such as Canyon Ranch SpaClub. Either way you will have a WONDERFUL, RELAXING weekend Bachelorette Party to remember…and be ready for the Wedding Day Photos!
Discount Diva Style ($$)– Moderate budgets require a little more creativity. Contact your local Spas and find packages for groups of people. Many times you can get great volume discounts or at least get the brides services for FREE! When planning an entire day or afternoon at the SPA don't forget about the food or drinks. Find out if your spa offers drinks for free, and if not, ask if you can bring the brides favorite wine or cocktail to serve. Plan to have snacks or food if you will be at the Spa over lunch or dinner. Pick the brides favorites and you can't go wrong!
Broke Bachelorette ($)– A Spa Bachelorette Party at Home can be a great time! Proper Planning is the key to success with this type of bachelorette Party. Pick up great facial masks at your local drug store or at Lush. Pick up the tools to give each other a manicure or pedicure and paint each others nails/toes. Hire a massage therapist to come to your home (with their portable massage table) and give each bachelorette a 15-20 minute massage. Play relaxing music, pour some wine or cocktails, and enjoy each others company!
Don't forget cute Spa Theme Party favors or a FUN game to play at the Spa like our Groom Quiz Game!
Kitten, Please enjoy our list of FREE Games & Scavenger Hunts with our compliments!
Most importantly,
Steph Storm

Good one ! thanks.Just one to take a chance to give a tip to those with cracked heel..make sure tht your heel is dry after you go 2 washroom or take a bath or else moisture will be stripped.put some baby lotion on your heels and wear a pair of socks at nite…it works on me!
Interesting thoughts yet again
What a fun adventure! Great pics as always!
Great ideas!! This is definitely what I want for my bachelorette party. When the girls came to me and asked what i would like, i had no idea what to tell them because I honestly believe i'd be divorced faster than married if i had a typical bachelorette party. With that being said, i definitely wanted an alternative but wasnt sure what to do. This is an awesome idea and I really love this site

Two More Weeks to Catch the Genius, the Fun, and the Righteousness of Fela!
By Chris Trenchard on December 02, 2011 5:45 PM
There's an inherent danger in marrying blockbuster musical theater with weighty subjects like political and social oppression. On one hand, the people must be entertained and stimulated...shiny lights everywhere, please! On the other, such stories demand a faithful and meaningful reading, with all respect paid to the maligned. And somehow, neither can be compromised.

La Mision Children's Fund is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization. Your donation will go to buy nonviolent toys for children in Mexico.
Our neighbor, Reverend Garry Wilburn, his body ravaged by ALS,
nevertheless managed to write the wonderful book 'Lots of Love'
before he passed away. In it he tells this story:
When the little girl saw him, she squealed, "Santa Claus!" and darted past a few assistant elves toward Santa. The slightly startled Santa greeted her with a big smile and swept her into his ample lap.
She snuggled in and stroked his beard, and uttered in joyful awe, "Santa!" For several minutes, Santa and the Little girl talked and laughed like two old friends, oblivious to the small crowd gathered to share in the magic of the moment.
The toddler's mother stood nearby, her eyes filled with tears of joy. Just then, a man edged over to her and to her surprise, she noticed that his eyes were as moist as hers. "Is that your little girl?" he asked quietly. The woman nodded.
With a catch in his voice and a quiet pride, the man said, "Santa is my son."
In the 1940's my Dad, a young Jewish man, got a job as a Santa Claus at Macy's Department Store in New Rochelle, New York. A spirit came over him that transcends all religions. After work he roamed the streets as Santa. Somehow he was guided to play "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear" on an accordion, despite the fact that he had never played a musical instrument before. Children squealed with joy as he brought them little toys and ministered to the sick. He wandered into the home of a paraplegic Irishman, eliciting glee in his eyes and gratitude from the family who patted him on the back and offered a shot of whisky. "Thanks, but I don't drink," Santa replied. Their faces were puzzled: this couldn't be one of their friends. Who was this mysterious soul behind the long white beard?
year around my dad carried "Little Turtles of Happiness" in
his pocket and gave them away. He'd withdraw their little rubber heads
and legs into their shells, and talk about how sometimes we want to just
withdraw and hide from the pain of the world. Then he'd nuzzle two turtles
together, and out would pop their little heads! "The power of love
brings us out of our shells," he would explain. My father's
name was Leon, which is NOEL spelled backwards.
When I was 4 ½ years old, my mom died, and my dad was so heartbroken he lost the Santa spirit. Year later, after I graduated from College I bought him a Santa suit for his birthday. As he opened the surprise gift, he gasped: "My clothes. I haven't worn my clothes in 30 years!" He began doing Santa again to the delight of Children at the Friends Meeting.
One Christmas. to cheer up a friend in the hospital, I borrowed my dad's suit. My friend was heartened by my visit, and afterwards I went to the children's ward with a bag of toys. The kids looked miserable – burned faces, legs hoisted up in traction, an arm in a sling. All of a sudden they spotted me and the misery vanished. "Santa," they yelled.
As the kid in the sling one-handedly played with his spinning gizmo I knew that this was bigger than me, bigger than a man in a red suit. When you don the magic robes, you suddenly become what all religions preach: one! All who are filled with the spirit of giving are the real Santa Claus.
As the kids played happily, I slipped away to go home. "Wouldn't you like to visit some of the other wards, Santa?" the nurse asked.
"Well, I don't know," I said, a little embarrassed. "Adults aren't going to want some guy in a Santa suit bothering them." But she convinced me to give it a try. In the first room, an elderly woman gripped my hand. "Santa," she said with a pained smile, "I'm so glad you came. I just found out that I'm dying." Choking up, I couldn't speak so I just looked serenely in her face, and held her hand for what felt like an eternity. A look of peace came over her eyes as I had the joy of being the carrier of that universal spirit.
I became Santa like my papa Noel. In Santa Fe, I had the thrill of giving away an entire toy-store full of toys. At Casa Real retirement home, I danced with ladies in their walkers. On Southwest airlines people asked me to present their gifts to loved ones and the pilot announced on the intercom the progress of my reindeer dashing along side.
When Molly's mom was in a nursing home, I had no gifts for grownups, so I tried giving out the only toys I had, stuffed animals. Some smiled, some laughed, some hugged their toys and cried. "Some of them have been non-responsive for years," said an amazed nurse. "Somehow you must have awakened a memory from their childhood."
Although my dad passed away at age 86, I feel his spirit coming alive in the playful joy of Christmas. I can almost hear him saying: "Santa is my son!"
For the past few years I've grown out my beard as the solstice approached, bleached it white, and donned the magic robes to do Santa for poor children in Mexico. The wonderful beach community of La Mision is filled with the finest elves, rivaling the North pole. These friends and Pillow Pets have donated thousands of toys for me to give away to children.

I am in the same boat as you sister! It is so frustrating. I felt like my 14 month old son was starving because he would literally eat two bites of mac n cheese for dinner. Hang in there. They will eat when they are hungry and you just have to keep trying new things. I just found out my son loves COLD green beans. Sometimes kids have sensory issues so if this keeps happening or if you are really concerned talk to his doctor. Mine said keep his milk intake under 24 oz per day and the rest will work itself out.posted 09/28/2011 by kfelk927
