Gentle readers, I call your attention to Lisa Belkin's excellent piece in this week's Sunday Times Magazine, provocatively tagged on the Times.com as "What If Men Had a Biological Clock Too?" This really hit home for me–as y'all may remember, once upon a time I was planning to marry a man in his late 40s but ultimately we broke up because he refused to have children with me. I'll be 34 next month and while I'm not sweating my age too much, I'm definitely aware that fertility is finite, and what used to be a 10-15 year window of opportunity to have babies is shrinking rather quickly. And yes, I've definitely railed against the unfairness of biology: my window closes between 40-45, but a man's stays open for at least 10 years beyond that, if not more.
But not so fast! New evidence from several studies shows that age is the enemy for men, too, and announces:
"…a new consensus-in-the-making: there is no fountain of youth for sperm, no "get out of aging free" card. The little swimmers, scientists are finding, one study at a time, get older and less dependable along with every other cell in the male body.
And men don't have to be all that old to be "too old." French researchers reported last year that the chance of a couple's conceiving begins to fall when the man is older than 35 and falls sharply if he is older than 40. British and Swedish researchers, in turn, have calculated that the risk of schizophrenia begns to rise for those whose fathers were over 30 when their babies were born. And another Swedish study has found that the risk of bipolar disorder in children begins to increase when fathers are older than 29 and is highest if they are older than 55. British and American researchers found that babies born to men over the age of 40 have significantly greater risk of autism than do those born to men under 30. (The age of the mother, in most of these studies, showed little or no correlation.) (ed: emphasis mine, because, how often to we women get left off the hook about our age at conception? Hooray!)
I actually don't want to say too much about the article, because Belkin hits it out of the park so many times that there's really nothing I can add:
The push and pull between timetables and dreams, between our bodies and our babies, is at the core of many women's worldview, which also means it is at the core of relationships between the sexes. This tension feeds the stereotype of woman as eager to settle down and men as reluctant, and it's the crux of why we see women as "old" and men as "distinguished."
Why yes! It does! Do go on…
If those underlying assumptions were to change, would all that follows from them change as well? A world in which each man heard his clock tick even a fraction as urgently as each woman could be a very different world indeed. All those silver-haired sex symbols, and balding sugar daddies, and average-Joe divorced guys who are on their second families because they can be while their exes are raising their first set of kids — what if all of them became, in women's eyes, too darned old?
Um, I think that would be pretty fucking awesome. Sauce for the gander, etc.
What if 30-year-old women started looking at 50-year-old men as damaged goods, what with their washed-up sperm, meaning those 50-year-olds might actually have to date (gasp!) women their own age?
Well, I'm not sure that would be an ideal state of affairs–no one should be viewed as damaged goods because of their age, male or female–but I can certainly see how that would be emotionally satisfying for a lot of women. Particularly the ones who hate it when older men date younger women (and I have certainly met a few).
…choosing a father for your child according to his "sell-by date" would be perversely consistent — seen by some women as long-overdue comeuppance (hear the chortling yet at girls' night out?) and by others (old habits die hard) as yet another thing they have to worry about when getting pregnant. (ed.: I'm sure I'd be the latter)
It will not change everything; it might not even change most things. But it would be a satisfying start if men had to pause and see age as part of their biological equation, too.
Now that would be a gender equality WIN.

We officially need to talk about the Cavs, losing and the lottery. Last night the Cavaliers won back-to-back games as Minnesota took over the "lead" for the number of ping pong balls in the lottery with a loss to Phoenix. Immediately after Baron Davis and the Cavs closed out the Raptors the whining started on Twitter about what could be the worst acronym in the history of attempted gimmicks: APPBITH. In case you don't know, it stands for "Another Ping Pong Ball in the Hopper" as coined by Kenny Roda at WKNR.
I don't mean to pick on Kenny because I have enjoyed his show at times in the past, but let's get something straight. Acronyms are used to make phrases simpler, marketable, catchy, entertaining or something other than cumbersome. Before I ever speak "APPBITH" aloud even once, I would prefer to say "Another Ping Pong Ball In the Hopper" ten times. The acronym aside, let's talk about the concept that the Cavaliers should lose for more chances at winning the lottery.
I understand anyone who wants to root for the Cavs to lose so they have a better chance at a draft pick. I don't really choose to think that way, but I am not so naive that I don't understand. There just seems to be a strange disconnect as to where this obsession with badness should stop. You can root for it if that is what you think is right, but it stops at the Cavaliers' locker room door. The minute you expect the Cavs or their coach Byron Scott to play along, you've officially lost your head.
I figure the Cavaliers will lose just as many games as they are supposed to lose. It isn't healthy to ask professionals to throw games. In fact it might also lead to an even bigger scandal if the motives leaked out to someone who could place large wagers on the games in Vegas. You know Pete Rose?
Look, I know Roda is just trying to entertain people. I know he is just running a gimmick that his listeners find entertaining. Still, he was Twitter-screaming "Put manny harris back in to help close this game out!" followed by, "Get baron davis the hell out of there!"
The Cavaliers can't actually do that. The Cavaliers can't build a culture like that where they think for a second that their job isn't to play basketball as well as they possibly can play it. You can't expect Byron Scott to deliver that message one year and then expect him to get a team ready to compete once some talent is imported onto the roster. Not all the guys here are pieces of the future, but some of them undoubtedly are.
While I am guessing that Roda and company at WKNR are doing what they do for entertainment purposes only, I truly hope they don't literally (like literally literally) believe that the Cavs should purposely tank games. The team could seriously lose a lot more than games by dumping on purpose. They could lose some wins in the future.

Good Questions: Tips for Kids' Garden Without "Full Sun"
Calling all gardeners! We got this question by email: We have some newfound space in our backyard since our neighbors directly behind us put up a fence. The space is behind our garage and since it's not highly visible, we would like to make it a kids' garden where our sons (8, 6 and 3) can both grow plants and play. We are looking for ideas on how to make this very engaging for the kids with a combination of the following if possible: plants, interactive water feature, a seat or two, digging area, etc...
Email questions and pics with QUESTIONS in subject line to:
The area gets afternoon sun, but would not be considered "full sun", I'm afraid, for many vegetables. Also, we have a stack of bricks and some stones for use. We would like to "diy" this as much as possible. Any ideas would be much appreciated!
Please share your suggestions for getting this garden going in the comments below...thanks!

Riding With Reindeer: A Bicycle Odyssey Through Finland, Lapland, and Arctic Norway
ISBN13:by Goldstein, Robert M.
Rivendell Pub Nw
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?

In the summer of 2007, Robert Goldstein departs Helsinki on a self-supported bicycle epic across Finland with the goal of pedaling to the Barents Sea. Aboard a folding bicycle towing a wagon, he weathers furious storms, survives a near-disastrous accident and obsesses whether he will be eaten by a bear as he makes his way through the remote forests of Eastern Finland. In sparsely populated Lapland, his solitude is relieved by reindeer who become his constant companions as he slowly makes his way through the Arctic.More than a travelogue, Riding with Reindeer intersperses an often humorous narrative about the author's adventures (he manages to get trapped in the women's shower in one remote village) with rich cultural and historical anecdotes as he passes through endless forests littered with rotted fortifications, rusted tanks and mass graves-the detritus of Finland's desperate defense against a massive Soviet invasion in the winter of 1939. Riding with Reindeer gives insight into the mind of the solitary traveler and into the soul of a country whose honest and resourceful yet often taciturn citizens are always willing to lend a helping hand to the stranger on the little blue bicycle gamely grinding his way through their "Suomi" - literally "the end of the land."
Author Biography
The author, a former journalist, is the Chief Financial Officer of the Kitsap Regional Library, Kitsap County, Wa. He lives in Seattle. His first book, The Gentleman from Finland û Adventures on the Trans-Siberian Express, won critical acclaim from Library book reviewer Nancy Pearl who called it ôa perfect read for fans of Paul Theroux and Bill Bryson's travel memoirs.ö

The Association of the United States Army's Institute of Land Warfare (AUSA ILW) , with participation from the U.S. Army Combined Arms Center (CAC), and the U.S. Army Mission Command Center of Excellence (MC CoE) presents the inaugural 2012 AUSA ILW Mission Command Symposium, to be held 19–20 June 2012 at the Kansas City Marriott Downtown, Kansas City, Missouri. The theme for the event will be "Mission Command and the Network". In the uncertain national security environment America faces, the U.S. Army remains central to the nation's defense as part of the Joint Force. No major conflict has been won without boots on the ground. The U.S. Army engages in three essential roles: preventing conflict through credible readiness, sometimes requiring decisive action; shaping the international environment by engaging partners, fostering mutual understanding through military-to-military contacts and helping partners build the capacity to defend themselves; and finally, winning decisively and dominantly.
To succeed in these roles, the U.S. Army is reframing some of the key concepts of its warfighting doctrine. In support of the Joint Force and in acknowledgement of the complex nature of 21st century warfare, the Army's doctrine of unified land operations is guided by mission command—the commander-centric conduct of military operations based on disciplined initiative, trust, intent, and understanding among all echelons. It is the warfighting function that seeks to inform and influence leaders while achieving advantages through the application of conventional, cyber and electronic means. As a warfighting function, mission command is the first among equals because, at its essence, it is the commander's responsibility to integrate all warfighting functions in time and space to accomplish the mission.
To operationalize mission command for use by the force, the Army is heavily investing in the network, also known as LandWarNet, to be the core of a smaller but more capable Army. The foundation of the modernized network is a joint, secure, and common architecture that will provide information from the cloud to enable leaders, units and the institutional Army to function more effectively. For the operational force, the Army is conducting a series of semi-annual field exercises known as the Network Integration Evaluation (NIE) to evaluate, integrate and mature the Army's tactical network. The exercises will assess network and non-network capabilities to determine implications across doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel and facilities.

Howser spun California stories into gold
Host of "California's Gold" turned his adopted home state into a star
Many of those stories came out of San Diego. Over the years, Howser did episodes on avocados in Fallbrook, growth in the East Village, tide pools at the Cabrillo National Monument and ships in a bottle at the Maritime Museum. As always, he made every video postcard feel like a love note.
"I think he made California appear comprehensible (in his programs). We appear accessible. We appear friendly," Kramer said. "I think he demystified the state for people who might have been intimidated by its urban sprawl and its traffic and its hectic, fast-paced lifestyle. He kind of reassured us that there were little places in the state that were quite lovely and charming, and that is very reassuring."
Later this year, Chapman University's official Huell Howser Archive will make Howser's more than 2,000 titles available for free online viewing. Select programs can be viewed now on the California Gold website at
calgold.com. Accept no substitutes.
"Off camera, he was pretty much as he was on camera," said Ray Ashley president and CEO of the San Diego Maritime Museum. "You saw the real Huell when you were watching him on TV, and people sensed that. He was the real California gold, I think."

REVERE, Mass. (AP) — A fire official in Massachusetts says there are reports of partial building and roof collapses after a powerful storm.
The National Weather Service says it will investigate to determine whether a tornado may have touched down Monday north of Boston, in the area of the town of Revere.
Revere Deputy Fire Chief Mike Viviano says the department has received dozens of calls reporting partial building and roof collapses, and downed trees and power lines.
Viviano says there were no immediate reports of serious injuries.
A powerful storm moved through the Boston area shortly after 9 a.m., prompting the weather service to issue a tornado warning for portions north of the city.
Meteorologist Kim Buttrick from the weather service says the warning was issued when rotation was seen within the storm.

BELVIDERE (WIFR) -- Boone County State's Attorney Michelle J. Courier announced that juvenile Pedro L. Sanchez, 16, of Belvidere, has been charged as an adult with one count of armed violence, one count of aggravated battery with a firearm, and two counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm for the shooting that occurred on June 26, 2011, in the 500 block of Starr Street in Belvidere.
It is alleged that Sanchez discharged a firearm and caused injury to the victim in that he shot the victim in the stomach.
The armed violence charge, aggravated battery with a firearm, and one count of aggravated discharge of a firearm are Class X felonies. Class X felonies are non-probationable and carry a sentencing range of 6 to 30 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections, if convicted.
Sanchez's next court date is August 5, 2011. His bond currently is set at $500,000 (10%).
Members of the public are reminded that these are only charges and are not proof of the defendant's guilt. Every defendant is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial in which it is the State's burden to prove his or her guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

The Blacklist
The Blacklist Recap: Season 1, Episode 12: "The Alchemist"
Picking up exactly where we left off last week, Reddington (James Spader) is ready to get down to business and give Agent Keen (Megan Boone) the next name on his list: The Alchemist. And if you thought The Stewmaker was the creepiest dude on Red's blacklist, well... say hello to The Alchemist!
Okay, actually they're both pretty creepy. While the former makes bodies into soup, the latter just takes your genetic soup and makes another you from it... and then kills the fake you. Where does Red (James Spader) find these people?
While we're still a little iffy on the how, we can say what he does. He kidnaps people and gives them an extreme makeover that includes some heavy dental work, some light tattooing, and some synthetic DNA manipulation, until they look good enough to pass for the body of his client who wishes to disappear. And then he has the victims die in such a way that their remains have to be identified in a lab, where dental and DNA testing falsely identifies the deceased as the Alchemist's fugitive client.
While the agents hunt down this mad scientist, Red continues his search for a mole on the inside at the Post Office, while occasionally advising Lizzie on how to catch her man. Keen and her fellow agents manage to track down The Alchemist's latest clients, a husband and wife on the lam. However, one half-step ahead, the Alchemist finds both spouses and dispatches with each.
Nevertheless, the team is able to uncover The Alchemist's identity any way by looking into the circumstances of his latest victims' disappearance. He's revealed to be Eric Trettel, a failed medical student, who falsified a degree, wormed his way onto the Human Genome Project, and got into his little evidence tampering side project. Six years ago, he disappeared, leaving behind a wife and daughter.
When Keen goes to interview Trettel's family, his wife makes it clear she lives in fear of her ex. "In his head he thinks we're still together," she says, warning Keen that he's dangerous. Yeah, obvs.
Keen and Co. figure out the location of The Alchemist's workshop, but by the time they get there, he's cleared out, and he's left two dead bodies in place of his wife and daughter. Of course they're not his real family, just the fakes he fabricated and put in their place in order to buy himself a little time for a getaway (though not much, frankly).
Red, taking a break from his vengeance work to help Lizzie, tells her that the wife and daughter are the key to finding Trettel. She remembers that Annie, The Alchemist's daughter, has diabetes and uses an insulin pump. Accessing her medical records, the team is able to trace her pump somehow to a pharmacy where Trettel and his two kidnappees have made a pit stop.
However, there's also an Amber Alert out for Annie, which immediately grabs the attention of apparently everyone in the pharmacy. One man quickly demonstrates that we wouldn't necessarily be safer if everyone had a gun, because he gets shot trying to take down Trettel... and poor little Annie also gets caught in the line of fire.
The scene quickly turns into a hostage situation. Keen oversteps the SWAT team's protocol and tries to get Trettel to reveal the names of the people he's helped disappear in exchange for help for Annie, but he's taken down in a sea of bullets before he can be of any help.
Keen and the team manage to get Trettel's list of his clients anyway, which Red quickly yanks from her grasp — revealing his reasons for helping were all just a means of getting access to those names. It's so weird that Red did something self-interested, right Keen? (Ugh, will she ever learn?)
Red goes off to finish carrying out his vengeance. Turns out the mole is Mira, which we called as soon as she was the first agent cat the Post Office cleared of involvement. However, if the scenes from next week are any indication, she may have information for Red that could keep her alive.. for now.
Meanwhile at the Keen House:
Tom (Ryan Eggold) turns down the job interview so Liz doesn't have to choose between him and her career, and then he brings up the subject of babies again. When Lizzie promises to do anything to make up for being an absentee wife, Tom asks her to host a baby shower for a coworker, further convincing us that he's evil. Because no guy wants to host a baby shower without sinister motives.
But he might not be the only one with sinister motives. Some chick named Jolene claiming to be a sub is also at the party and clearly is not just a teacher. She has a dossier with info on both Keens. Perhaps she's a plant of Red's?
After Liz predictably flakes out yet again on her plans to make up with Tom after they (again) fight, her husband decides to go to a gallery exhibit Jolene the "substitute" invited him to, and he's doesn't answer his phone when Liz calls. Something tells us it's going to take more than Chinese takeout for Keen to make it up to her possibly evil (but equally possibly just really sweet and sensitive) husband.

Conservatives score wins in EU parliament voting
BRUSSELS Conservatives scored victories in some of Europe's largest economies Sunday as voters punished left-leaning parties in European parliament elections in France, Germany and other nations.
Some right-leaning parties said the results vindicated their reluctance to spend more on company bailouts and fiscal stimulus to combat the global economic crisis.
The European Union said center-right parties were expected to take the most seats – 267 – in the 736-member parliament. Center-left parties were headed for 159 seats. The remainder were expected to go to smaller groupings.
Right-leaning governments were ahead of the opposition in Germany, France, Italy and Belgium, while conservative opposition parties were leading in Britain and Spain.
Greece was a notable exception, where the governing conservatives were headed for defeat in the wake of corruption scandals and economic woes.
Germans handed a lackluster victory to Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservatives and a historic defeat to their center-left rivals in the European Parliament vote months before a national election.
The Social Democrats got an unexpectedly dismal 20.8 percent – the party's worst showing since World War II in any nationwide election.
Merkel's Christian Democratic Union and a regional sister party won 37.8 percent, down from 44.5 percent five years ago. But the outcome was enough to boost Merkel's hopes of ending the tense left-right "grand coalition" that has led the European Union's most populous nation since 2005, and replacing it with a center-right government.
"We are the force that is acting level-headedly and correctly in this financial and economic crisis," said Volker Kauder, the leader of Merkel's party in the German parliament.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy's governing conservatives trounced the Socialists, while an ecology-minded party vaulted to a surprisingly strong third place, according to official results.
The Socialists, who dominated the last vote in 2004, suffered a stinging defeat, barely clinging to the No. 2 spot.
"Tonight is a very difficult evening for Socialists in many nations in Europe," said Martin Schulz, the leader of the Socialists in the European Parliament. "(We will) continue to fight for social democracy in Europe."
Far-right groups and other fringe parties gained in record low turnout estimated at 43.5 percent of 375 million eligible, reflecting widespread disenchantment with the continentwide legislature.
Britain elected its first extreme-right politician to the European Parliament, with the British National Party winning a seat in northern England's Yorkshire and the Humber district.
The far-right party, which does not accept nonwhites as members, was expected to possibly win further seats as more results in Britain were announced.
Lawmakers with Britain's major political parties said the far right's advance was a reflection of anger over immigration issues and the recession that is causing unemployment to soar.
Near-final results showed Austria's main rightist party gaining strongly while the ruling Social Democrats lost substantial ground. But the big winner was the rightist Freedom Party, which more than doubled its strength over the 2004 elections to 13.1 percent of the vote. It campaigned on an anti-Islam platform.
In the Netherlands, Geert Wilders' anti-Islamic party took 17 percent of the country's votes, taking four of 25 seats.
The Hungarian far-right Jobbik party won three of 22 seats, with the main center-right opposition party, Fidesz, capturing 14 seats and the governing Socialists only four.
Jobbik describes itself as Euro-skeptic and anti-immigration and wants police to crack down on petty crimes committed by Gypsies. Critics say the party is racist and anti-Semitic.
Fringe groups could use the EU parliament as a platform for their extreme views but were not expected to affect the assembly's increasingly influential lawmaking on issues ranging from climate change to cell-phone roaming charges.

Furyk joins the 59 club, charges up BMW leaderboardBy DOUG FERGUSON
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS | September 14,2013LAKE FOREST, Ill. With a shot at golfs magic number, Jim Furyk had no trouble finishing the job.
Furyk birdied two of his last holes, stuffing a gap wedge into just over 3 feet on his final hole Friday at the BMW Championship, and knocked in the putt to become the sixth player in PGA Tour history to shoot 59.
The round tied him atop the leaderboard with Brandt Snedeker at 131.
Standing in the ninth fairway at Conway Farms, 103 yards from a front pin, Furyk didnt want to let his chance get away from him.
I said, `How many opportunities are you going to have in life to do this again? he said. Got to take advantage of it. Tried to knock it in there tight and make it as easy on yourself as you can.
The gallery lined both sides of the fairway about 150 yards down from the green and gave him a huge ovation when he walked onto the green. One fan screamed out, Jimmy, Ill give it you! Furyk smiled and waved at him.
He made the putt and repeatedly pumped his fist, turning for the gallery in the grandstands to see, and then he hugged caddie Mike Fluff Cowan and tapped him on the head. It looked like a Sunday afternoon, and had the occasion of a winning putt.
This at least gave Furyk a share of the lead at the BMW Championship with Brandt Snedeker, who was nine shots clear of Furyk at the start of the day and shot 68.
It was the first 59 on the PGA Tour since Stuart Appleby in the final round of The Greenbrier Classic in 2010.
The others with a 59 were Al Geiberger in the 1977 Memphis Classic; Chip Beck in the 1991 Las Vegas Invitational; David Duval in the 1999 Bob Hope Classic; and Paul Goydos in the 2010 John Deere Classic.
Theres not much I could have improved on today, Furyk said.
For a change, everything went right at the end. Furyk has been haunted in the last two years with a bogey on the 16th hole that cost him a shot at the 2012 U.S. Open, a double bogey at Firestone last year that kept him from winning a World Golf Championship, a bogey-bogey finish in the Ryder Cup to lose a key match to Sergio Garcia last year in Chicago, and a one-shot lead he failed to hold just last month at the PGA Championship.
Making it worse, he was left off a U.S. team for the first time in 15 years when Presidents Cup captain Fred Couples did not make him a wild-card selection. On this day, Furyk gave Couples 59 reasons to reconsider.
Nick Watney, tour rookie Jordan Spieth, Kevin Streelman 66, Charl Schwartzel and Ryan Moore were at 136, and Jason Day, Jimmy Walker, Roberto Castro and Steve Stricker were at 137 at the midway point.MORE IN Wire SportsOKLAHOMA CITY The Thunder wont say they have to win Game 6 against the Golden State Warriors...

Former Bishkek Mayor Nariman Tuleev (right) has been on a hunger strike since February 15, claiming the detention center's officials requested $50,000 before they would allow him to get medical treatment outside the facility for cancer.
The chief of the detention center of the Kyrgyz State Committee of National Security (UKMK) has been dismissed amid reports of alleged extortion in the facility.
The UKMK's press service confirmed to RFE/RL that Mirbek Mukanbetov and the detention center's top official responsible for the inmates' medical treatment have been dismissed.
No reasons have been given.
Meanwhile, Kyrgyz Ombudsman Tursunbek Akun says an inmate at the facility, former Bishkek Mayor Nariman Tuleev, has been on a hunger strike since February 15 claiming the detention center's officials requested $50,000 before they would allow him to get medical treatment outside the facility.
Tuleev, a parliamentary deputy, has been diagnosed with cancer.
In June 2012, he was arrested and charged with corruption and financial mismanagement while serving as Bishkek mayor.

David Chang: Má Pêche at the Chambers Hotel
15 W. 56th St., 212-757-5878, Midtown West, Manhattan
The Chambers Hotel scored a coup when they got David Chang to open his first Midtown restaurant on the premises, creating a huge buzz. Foodies are obsessed with Chang, vying for seats at his various Momofuku restaurants in the East Village (Ko, Ssäm Bar and the original), and standing in line at his Milk Bar for a slice of "crack pie." He's worshipped for intriguing flavor combinations, a fusion of Korean and American and other ethnic influences. Má Pêche has an understated design and a peachy glow (the name, in a fusion of Vietnamese and French, means "mother peach"). Walls are coated with music-inspired, mass-produced paintings by artist Steve Keene, giving the space a downtown feel. The menu changes daily, but you can expect superb raw bar selections, skillfully cooked fish, steak and pork chops, always with oddball twists. Several desserts are available from the hotel's branch of Milk Bar, with a more extensive selection of cookies, cake and soft-serve ice cream offered to go.
Visit our page on the Chambers Hotel for more information.

Seven years back, Syed Shahnawaz Hussain, young minister of state in Vajpayee's government was an unhappy man. Being the junior to all powerful HRD minister Dr Murli Manohar Joshi, he had not much work to do. Nor did anyone notice some of the initiatives that the BJP minister from Bihar undertook.
Mr Hussain got a pukhraj for himself in one of his official trips to Kolkata. As soon as he landed up in Delhi, he heard that he was given the coal ministry with independent charge. The story did not end there. The gem worked wonder for him as Atal Bihari Vajpayee spotted his talent and later gave him the cabinet rank.

The Bulldogs took to the road again this time to take on the Dragons of Eastmoor and whilst they returned undefeated they had to share the spoils in a hard fought 14-14 draw. That was enough to maintain top spot in Division 2 at the halfway point of the regular season.
Siddal 7 11
Eastmoor Dragons 6 8
Batley Boys 7 7
Hunslet Warriors 7 7
Dewsbury Celtic 7 7
Newsome Panthers 7 6
Oulton Raiders 6 5
Heworth 7 3
Whilst they may been a bit disappointed not to have come home with a victory Eastmoor is a tough place to go and to get anything is an achievement.
Once again the boys started well enough taking well deserved 10-0 lead with the opening try from Captain James Ainley converted by Keelan Foster. In only his second game Ben Schofield scored a superb second try beating numerous Dragon defenders. Eastmoor hit back with tries either side of the break to level the scores at 10-10 before Sam Smith restored the Bulldogs lead in typical fashion. Once again Siddal were unable to keep The Dragons at bay as they managed to score another equalising try.
The match finished somewhat farcically as the referee blew early following an Eastmoor player refusing to leave the pitch following a sin binning with the same player seemingly hell bent on starting a fightafter the game. Nevertheless it was a good game with both teams having opportunities to win the game though neither side were particularly helped by some strange refereeing decisions. The game also saw a debut for Brandon St Catherine who looks another fine prospect. Phillip Tatterstall ran strongly and gained good ground throughout the game capably backed up by Alex MacFarlane Alfie McGreevy Connor Murphy and Mattaus Varin. James Ainley lead from the front with some fierce tackling as did Jacob Tansey who picked up the Top Tackler Award for several superb tackles. Ben Scholefield picked up the Runner Up Man of the Match Award for his telling contribution from full back in only his second appearance. Phillip Tatterstall picked up both the Man of the Match Award and Opposition Man of the Match Award for his efforts.
Overall a good performance from the whole squad. For the second week running the boys let a decent lead slip and the coaches will be looking again at squad size and number of interchanges to see what effect these changes are having. However, the boys didn't let their heads drop despite being pegged back twice. Line speed remains an issue but will improve.
At the halfway point in the season no less than 12 players have picked up points for Man of the Match or Top Tackler emphasising what an all round team performance it has been thus far. The squad assembled has to be one of the strongest around and will get stronger as the hard work being put in on the training pitch starts to show and the boys get more used to playing with each other.

Huddleston Named to State Commission
Huddleston Named to State Commission
President Mark Huddleston has been named to the Governor's Commission on State Government Innovation, Efficiency and Transparency, created recently by Gov, Maggie Hassan as part of her continuing her efforts to reform state government to save taxpayer dollars and improve state services.
The commission brings together experts from the private business, nonprofit, higher education and local government sectors to make recommendations for modernizing state government, improving efficiency, measuring the performance of state agencies and improving transparency to citizens.
"State agencies have worked hard in recent years to do more with less, but we must always be looking for new ways to innovate in state government in order to improve efficiency, cut red tape and save taxpayer dollars," Gov. Hassan said. "By harnessing the expertise of both the public and private sectors to come up with new ideas and approaches, the commission will help reposition state government for the challenges of the 21st century."
The governor's commission includes members with relevant experience in areas including performance measurement, reorganizations, efficiency and operational improvements. Members will examine the organization of state government and opportunities for reducing redundancies or streamlining services; how to improve government processes, including the use of technology; the state's contracting and relationship with its nonprofit partners, quasi-governmental agencies and local communities; performance metrics for state government and for improving transparency; and other methods that members believe will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of state government in order to deliver cost-effective quality services to the people of New Hampshire.
The commission will be chaired by Eric Herr, a member of the NH Charitable Foundation board of directors and former CEO of Autodesk who formerly chaired an innovation commission for the New Hampshire Judicial Branch.
"As the work of the Judicial Branch Innovation Commission showed, NH state government employees and leaders embrace opportunities to improve the performance of state government," Herr said. "I applaud the governor for launching the Innovation, Efficiency and Transparency Commission and look forward to working with her and my fellow commission members to help modernize New Hampshire's state government."
Other members are:
- Maureen Beauregard, president and founder of Families in Transition
- Howard Brodsky, co-founder, chairman and co-chief executive officer of CCA Global Partners
- Jon Freeman, president of Northern Community Investment Corporation

- Diana Lacey, president of the State Employees' Association of New Hampshire

The commission's first meeting will be June 13.

Scentsicles + Balsam Hill
Scentsicles + Balsam Hill Communitree
The Communitree event was a three-day, live-streaming, virtual Christmas tree decorating party. By visiting thecommunitree.com website, users could get in line to remotely control a tree-decorating robot.
While users waited in a queue for their turn to control the robot, they watched a live-streaming event of two actors dressed in holiday gear providing commentary, taking live phone calls from viewers, and doling out funny quips. When it was each user's turn, they had 15-seconds control the bot and choose a location to drop the ornament; when time was up, the ornament dropped. If it landed on a tree branch, $5 was donated to Toys for Tots and the user was sent Scentsicles scented ornaments as a reward.
The event earned $20,000 for Toys for Tots and gained a significant amount of earned media, including articles in Mashable, CNBC, Creativity, Salon.com, BusinessWeek, San Francisco Chronicle, Boston Globe, Yahoo! Finance, Sacramento Bee, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, WTAE TV news, New York Spaces magazine, the Denver Egotist, AdAge, and many more. Additionally, the project received thousands of facebook "likes" and more than 900 twitter mentions.

Arriving around midnight, Miss Longoria, whose flight from the US was delayed, was accompanied at the dinner at the luxury beach club by various A-listers, including Oscar-nominated actor, Terrence Howard, Puerto Rican Prison Break actor, Amaury Nolasco, top Spanish actress and model, Mar Saura and Ms. Longoria's good friends, Maria Bravo, and Alina Peralta, along with Spanish basketball legend, Fernando Romay. The group greeted each other excitedly as they met up at Marbella's most iconic beach club to dine under the stars with the waves of the Mediterranean lapping gently on the shore just a few meters away from the candlelit table.

It is not the first time that Eva Longoria has been spotted at Nikki Beach; the sassy actress has previously visited Nikki Beach's VIP lounge at the Cannes Film Festival, and she has also popped up on the pristine white shores of Nikki Beach at Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. The popular actress, 37, is best known for her former role as Gabriela Solis in the phenomenally popular TV series Desperate Housewives and now campaigner for President Obama's re-election campaign.
Enjoying the Nikki Beach Experience
On this occasion, Ms. Longoria was wearing an emerald green, mini culotte dress and strappy nude heels accompanied on the evening by a posse of close girlfriends. Her party enjoyed a selection of mouth-watering dishes inspired by the exotic locations of the various Nikki Beach clubs around the world, including the impressive Nikki Beach Steam Boat of sizzling Chateaubriand and lobster and classic Nikki Beach Chicken Satay. Also on the menu were some Spanish gourmet delights including a cheeseboard and the best cured Jabugo ham which the actress enjoyed with a glass of full-bodied Spanish red wine.
Guests dining at Nikki Beach were delighted when the A-list diners started appearing, adding an extra touch of magic to the Nikki Beach Moonlight dining experience. The first to arrive was Spanish basketball "giant" Fernando Romay, 2.13m tall, who later posed with the petite Ms. Longoria, 1.55, who found the height difference simply hilarious.
When handsome Prison Break actor Amauri Nolasco, accompanied by his girlfriend, Martina Anna Lund and Spanish actress Mar Saura, the friendly Puerto Rican actor caused quite a stir among the ladies with his thousand watt smile. Oscar nominee Terrence Howard also arrived in a really friendly, relaxed mood, hugging security staff and mixing it with fans and admirers.
Eva Longoria arrived with her good friends Mario Bravo and Alina and despite her two hour delay, was looking sensational in an emerald green mini culotte and strappy nude heels (will try and get details later this morning). She was looking really happy and relaxed, showing off her legs to full effect and with her glossy L'Oreal mane loose – which she later pulled up into a chic chignon at the table.

Spanish Delights for Latina Beauty
The party were offered a glass of champagne on entering Nikki Beach – and most of the guests partook of a glass – Eva had a few sips before posing for a few pics. Eva and her guests chatted, hugged, kissed and were really excited to see each other. They later sat down to relax at the shoreside, candlelit table which was strewn with bougainvillea. The guests enjoyed red, white and rose Nikki Beach Wines, Eva favouring a full bodied red Spanish wine. The group ate their appetizers Spanish tapas style, enjoying foie gras, a cheeseboard and the famous Spanish cured ham, Jamón de Jabugo. The group clapped and cooed when the waiters brought out the main course, three impressive Nikki Beach Steam boats – of sizzling Chateaubriand and lobster – complete with sparklers and class Nikki Beach Chicken Satay and ribs.
A relatively quiet evening at Nikki Beach Marbella, the venue being world famous for its spectacular parties, Ms. Longoria and guests enjoyed the sounds of a live trumpeter who played along to the Nikki Beach beat, staying around chatting and chilling out until around 2.30am.

La Ruta + Rain = Great Photos

As if Friday's challenging stage 3 wasn't enough for those taking on La Ruta de los Conquistadores, the weather conspired with the distance and topography on Saturday's final stage.
Caribbean rain fell all of Friday night and throughout Saturday making for a wet and muddy ride to the end. And while Manuel Prado won the 398km La Ruta overall, all 219 riders had to deal with crossing Costa Rican rivers on railroad bridge tracks for over 50 kilometers, according to race officials. Special carts were created to transport some of the racers across a few bridges, mainly those riders affected by vertigo.
The level of the rain-swollen rivers forced race organizers to detour to a new course, which led racers nearly 20 kilometers on a parallel highway. Cars, buses and trucks were then involved in the race, beeping and taking photos as racers passed.
Below are photos from Saturday's fourth, and final, stage. Check out the slideshow from stage 3.

and that's just using the two most popular synonym combinations. Freaking marketers, engineers, and researchers couldn't decide on one term, so now everyone in the world considers the same stupid service by a different name.
The way I've set up my site, my main page focuses on two keyword phrases - 1a widget and 2b widget. My sub pages all focus on different synonyms and plurality.
I've been looking at the top serps, and they all seem to focus on one particular permutation of the phrase, and use it all over.
I'm thinking about registering several different domains, and adjusting my content to reflect a single permutation of the phrase so that I might one day be seen as an authority site for that particular range of keywords.
Now considering the fact that my content will be slightly different accross domains, but very similar. I'd have to do more work than just a search and replace, but I'm not going to re-write everything.
Good idea? Bad idea?
I wouldn't recommend having content 'very similar' at all, but after saying that it works for some sites out there I see, although I havn't checked them on the 64 data centre.
I see it like this, what makes a good authorative magazine? I think it's the quality content... in my opinion the same applies to web sites.

|Local communities commemorate veterans who have passed
|Written by Wauneta Breeze
|Thursday, 30 May 2013 19:38
The Wauneta American Legion, VFW, Sons of the American Legion and auxiliary groups organized a military salute and Memorial Day program at three area cemeteries, including Wauneta's Riverside Cemetery. (Christi Christner | The Wauneta Breeze)
By Christi Christner
The Wauneta Breeze
This year Wauneta, Palisade, and Hamlet held services to commemorate Memorial Day at local cemeteries.
Each service was a reminder of all the brave men and women who gave everything to protect our country.
Alan Baxter, commander of the Palisade American Legion and quartermaster of the Palisade VFW, spoke at both Palisade and Hamlet's services. He said that freedom does not come free. Something will always be lost in the fight for liberty and freedom.
Many veteran organizations helped make these ceremonies possible including the Palisade American Legion, Palisade VFW, Palisade AMVETS, Wauneta American Legion and Sons of the American Legion, Wauneta VFW and Auxiliary groups.
The Palisade American Legion and VFW along with the AMVETS put on both ceremonies in Palisade and Hamlet.
Palisade American Legion
The Palisade American Legion is a very active group in the Palisade community. The American Legion has been around since 1919. Palisade started their American Legion in 1922. Today there are 50 members.
The commander is Alan Baxter, vice-commander is Jerry Post and Viron Baxter, chaplain.
Throughout the year the Palisade Legion holds fish fries during Lent. At the beginning of pheasant and deer season they put on a feed for the community. Each year they send a boy to Boys State. This year Landon Jutten was selected to attend.
Palisade VFW
The Palisade VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) has been around since 1977 serving their community on many occasions. The VFW in Palisade has approximately 150 members. Billy Smith serves as the quartermaster, Alan Baxter as commander and Jerry Post as vice commander.
Throughout the year the VFW provides different writing competitions for students at Wauneta-Palisade Schools. This year they held the Voice of Democracy, a writing competition, with the topic, "Is the Constitution Still Relevant Today?" The first, second and third place winners received an amount of money as their prize.
The Palisade VFW holds a dinner every year during Pioneer Days in Palisade. They also help with funeral details for veterans.
Palisade AMVETS
AMVETS (American Veterans) is an organization that was chartered in 1947. There has been an AMVETS post in Palisade since 1997. Locally, there are 67 members involved with AMVETS.
They provide bingo during Pioneer Days and serve pie and ice cream during the VFW's dinner.
The AMVETS offer five different $200 scholarships state-wide. They also put on several writing competitions for Wauneta-Palisade schools. The Ted Leszkiewicz AMVETS Against Drugs and Alcohol Abuse (AADAA) program is a poem or poster competition for K-12. For 6-12 grades there is also an essay competition. First, second and third place winners will receive a prize that altogether add up to $800.
Palisade American Legion Auxiliary
The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 318 in Palisade has 73 members. Throughout the year they have bake sales or garage sales. On Memorial Day they provide a lunch of chicken and noodle soup. JoAnn Ward serves as the president of the group with Shirley Fergusan as vice president, Josie Lytle as secretary and Helen Miller as the treasurer. During the Memorial Day service they lay out wreaths on the graves.
For the Wauneta Memorial service the Wauneta VFW, Wauneta American Legion, Sons of the American Legion and auxiliary groups helped put it on.
Wauneta American Legion
Wauneta's American Legion Post 304 has 32 members. They have a Memorial Day dinner that they put on yearly.
The group also send a girl to Girls State. This year Cassidy Rathe has been selected to go. The Auxiliary pays the entry fee and provides transportation there and back.
Wauneta VFW
The Wauneta VFW has played an important role in Wauneta's community. There are 32 members. Out of these 32, 20 of them are life members.
The VFW collaborates with the woman's auxiliary to give a $400 scholarship. Each organization gives $200 to help out a senior entering college. They have either a hamburger or sloppy-joe feed throughout the school year to raise money for this scholarship.
The VFW also helps fund the special olympics and the fire department.
Loyd Christner is the commander with Dennis Pfeiffer as vice commander. Dennis Pfeiffer is also the adjutant of the VFW. The quarter master is John Monasmith.
Wauneta American Legion Auxiliary
The American Legion Auxiliary Post 304 has thirty two members. These women, daughters, sisters, or granddaughters of men who have served our country arrange the Memorial Day lunch which was served from noon to one on Monday.
History of Memorial Day
On May 5, 1862, General John A. Logan, leader of an organization for Northern Civil War veterans, issued a proclamation that called for "Decoration Day" to be made known nationwide. The last Monday in May was chosen because it was not the anniversary of any battle.
General James Garfield made a speech at Arlington National Cemetery on the first Decoration Day. Five thousand people decorated the grave of 20,000 Union and Confederate soldiers. By 1890 all Northern states made Decoration Day an official holiday. After WWI all Southern states made it official but also continued to honor their dead on separate days.
Memorial Day's name was originally called Decoration Day because people would decorate the graves of both Union and Confederate soldiers. The name was changed after World War I when it became a time to honor all U.S. military persons who had died in all wars.
Memorial Day is a day to remember the valiant men and women who have given their lives to protect our country and its freedom.

Wife Swap: Adams And Hess Families
April 30, 2010 08:36 PM by Lisa Princ
Tonight on the second half of the Wife Swap doubleheader on ABC it's animals versus divas. We'll meet one family with a filthy home cluttered with animals, and another that is spotless run by controlling parents. Just how will these families fare when their lives are turned upside down? Keep reading for all the details!
First, we met the Hess family on Wife Swap on ABC. This family lives in a home that never gets cleaned and is filled with animals, 29 of them to be exact from dogs to reptiles to a skunk. This family lacks any sort of discipline and mom, Amanda cares more about spending time with her animals than her children. Amanda does not believe in keeping up appearances and it shows in her home, while dad, Paul gets no respect from anyone in his family.
Next, we met the Adams family on Wife Swap on ABC. Samantha and Michael have one daughter, who they treat more like a slave than a child. They do not allow her to date, hang out with friends or have any pets in the home. Instead, she must do all the chores, clean to Samantha's high standards and serve mom and dad constantly.
As the swap gets underway on Wife Swap on ABC it is clear that both of these families are going to have a hard time. Samantha is completely disgusted immediately upon entering the Hess's home from the smell, and refuses to eat there. She winds up spending the night in a hotel instead, which hurt and offended Paul. She continued to offend Paul by calling them lazy while she sat around and did nothing forcing the kids to clean. She removed the home of all the animals and told the children if they cleaned the animals would return. She and Paul butted heads numerous times, and she even brought Paul to tears. Eventually she did manage to work together with the family in getting the home clean and sanitary once again, and the animals returned.
Over at the Adam's household, Amanda was having a hard time getting Michael to see how he treated his daughter more like a slave. She decided to introduce animals into the home, but Michael wanted no part of it and threatened to remove them, but he never actually did. Amanda did manage to get Michael to see how he needed to let his daughter be a child and hang out with her friends instead of spending so much time waiting on them. Eventually, Michael allowed her to go out with some friends, with himself close by of course, but hey it was a start!
At the table meeting on Wife Swap on ABC there was yet another blow up between Paul and Samantha, but eventually things calmed down and they were able to talk. After the swap, the Hess family started to take better care of their home, and their appearances all around. In the Adam's home, Samantha and Michael started to treat their daughter like the young lady she is instead of a slave. This was definitely one successful swap!
Be sure to tune in next Friday at 8 pm EST for another episode of Wife Swap on ABC.

Paul is disgusting, and a horrible father. That family does not care at all about there child's success. They want them to be unhappy and overweight just like their parents. You guys are trailer trash and will only perpetuate your children becoming white trash, unsuccessful, overweight, unhealthy and not responsible. How do you expect your children to grow up and be useful member of society if you do not rear them in the right direction. And as far as the mother, you are horrible! You care about your animals more than you care about your own children, your family is disgusting trailer trash. Way to perpetuate the "white trash" stereotype.

SUCK MY BALLS you guys are crazy, the Adams family resembled a great family that america lacks today. The father reminds me of a young hitler (in a good way of course). He has many thought out logical one liners. The mother is a swag queen bee. One might call her a swagger hound, she collects everybodys swag and hounds it. The daughter was a fuckin 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being SWAG)

That way, if I want it small, I can shrink it, and if I want it printed huge, I have it. Because you're right, enlarging is not really an option. *Edit: I don't usually go to 2x final resolution, because I usually work at 300% zoom (pixel for pixel on a ~100px/inch screen) or higher (200% zoom on that).

East Coast Dam Removals Continue To Open Up Blocked Rivers
American Rivers is playing a significant role in dam removal projects up and down the east coast. In 2013 alone, we removed over 40 dams in the United States. In the Northeast restoration is underway on the Penobscot River, the Mid-Atlantic is seeing the return of American shad on the Patapsco River, and the Southeast has restored habitat for over 7,000 shad in North Carolina Rivers.
In 2012 the Penobscot River Restoration Project began with the removal of Maine's Great Works Dam. American Rivers is a founding member of the Penobscot River Restoration Trust and serves an important role in raising funds and providing technical assistance. The project will open 1,000 miles of habitat for Atlantic salmon and other species. Now a second major stage has begun with the removal of Veazie Dam. This past July, a demolition crew began removing the Veazie Dam on the Penobscot River just above Bangor, ME.
The Veazie is the lowest of the Penobscot dams and closest to the river's mouth on the Maine coast. Thanks to the work of the Penobscot River Restoration Trust (of which American Rivers is a founding member) and its partners, the lower river will be free-flowing once again and will allow migratory fish to work their way up from the sea.
The iconic species of the Penobscot is the Atlantic salmon, which used to run up the river to spawn in large numbers. While salmon spawning will require addition work on the upper Penobscot watershed, including new salmon passages at upstream dams, opening this lower river will immediately benefit other species, such as striped bass, herring, sturgeon and smelt.
Heading south, the Mill River in Massachusetts has benefited from recent dam removal projects. Eight years after a nearly tragic event brought public attention to this weak structure, Massachussetts' Whittenton Dam on the Mill River has been removed, and the river is flowing freely through the former dam site. This removal is part of the larger Mill River Restoration that includes the removal of three dams and the instillation of a fishway at a fourth dam on this important Taunton River tributary. The project will allow migratory river herring to access an additional 30 miles of river habitat. Whittenton Dam is the second dam to be removed as a part of this project and follows last year's removal of the Hopewell Mills Dam.
The Taunton River is one of the only free-flowing rivers in the Northeast, and restoring fish passage to a major tributary like the Mill River will provide significant benefits for the river's herring run, one of the largest in the region. Hundreds of thousands of fish are expected to return to Narragansett Bay, where they are important food for striped bass. This spring, the first river herring in nearly 200 years was spotted upstream of the former Hopewell Mills dam site, making its way from Narragansett Bay to inland spawning areas.
American Rivers and partners removed two dams on the Patapsco River in Maryland, the Simpkins Dam in 2010 and the Union Dam in 2011. Since these dam removals, monitoring efforts by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Maryland Department of Natural Resources has shown positive numbers of migratory fish returning to the river. Last year they even caught the first American shad seen in the Patapsco River in 20 years!
Continuing restoration efforts on the Patapsco, American Rivers was awarded a $3.57 million grant from NOAA Restoration Center to remove the Bloede Dam, the first dam on the river. The removal of Bloede Dam will restore habitat for key species such as blueback herring, alewife and American shad.
For more than four years now, American Rivers has actively been working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to remove dams on North Carolina's rivers. In November, the Smitherman's Dam was removed on the Little River. This was the third dam to be removed in this area in the past two years. Earlier last summer, the Lassiter Mill Dam was removed on the Uwharrie River. As these rivers have time to recover, habitat for rare mussels will be reconnected and as well as other important species such as the American shad.
When dams are removed, rivers are able to return to their natural flows, and habitats for fish and wildlife begin to be restored. As we monitor rivers and streams after dam removals, we've seen the return of many important fish species such as striped bass, river herring, American shad, and hopefully one day Atlantic salmon. The impact of dam removal is immediate and extremely positive.

Warning - this could be a little graphic for some...
The TdC last week was the first ride over 35 miles that I've done since I was at least 10 years younger, possibly 20-25 years. And I know from my annual physical exams that my prostate is, if not technically "enlarged," at least "prominent" (to quote my physician). Having said all that, I'm used to minor discomfort on saddles from time to time. And being a former Clyde, I know all about generalized sensations of pressure discomfort, but I've always been able to move around a bit and ride through those kinds of things with relative ease. Usually standing to get up a hill is all it takes to make things feel OK again.
But something new and different happened on the TdC, once I'd been in the saddle for over 2 hours - a sensation of having to urinate, badly. Once off the bike and in the port-o-let, though, I found I didn't need to at all, or at least only very little. The sensation was very recognizable from annual prostate exams, when the pressure placed on the prostate in turn puts pressure on the bladder.
This is making me think I should give up the 20 year old Turbo that used to serve me so well, and go for something else, perhaps with a groove or cutout, or maybe even a Brooks, in the hope of alleviating pressure on the gland. A quick look at an anotomical chart would suggest it might be susceptible to this sort of thing if it were larger than normal, and could therefore put pressure on the bladder.
Any other guys here have this specific issue, and found a workable solution?
