Fasting Quotes
Historical and modern day quotes on the value of fasting.
Below are some of the best fasting quotes from both modern medical and health professionals as well as famous historical figures. History shows us that fasting was considered a natural therapy for so many of the ails of the past.
Modern professionals are telling us the same is still true; that fasting will alleviate a host of ailments that plague us in our modern world.
The fasting quotes are divided into four categories: Historical, Modern M.D.s, Other Health Professionals, and Religious Writers and Figures.
"Fasting is the greatest remedy– the physician within."
Philippus Paracelsus, one of the three fathers of Western medicine
"Instead of using medicine, better fast today."
Plutarch, a Greek biographer and moralist
"The best of all medicines is resting and fasting."
Benjamin Franklin
"Everyone has a doctor in him; we just have to help him in his work. The natural healing force within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well. …to eat when you are sick, is to feed your sickness."
Hippocrates, one of the three fathers of Western medicine
"A little starvation can really do more for the average sick man than can the best medicines and the best doctors."
Mark Twain, in My Debut As a Literary Person
"Nature heals, the doctor helps!"
Paracelsus, writing about activating
the "doctor inside", or our own healing nature
"Every fool can fast, but only the wise man knows how to break a fast."
G.B. Shaw, writer
"Humans live on one-quarter of what they eat; on the other three-quarters lives their doctor."
Egyptian pyramid inscription, 3800 B.C.
Modern M.D.s
"I believe that fasting is the "missing link" in the Western diet."
"From a medical point of view, I believe that fasing is not utilized often enough."
"…. fasting is one of the best overall healing methods because it can be applied to so many conditions and people."
"Fasting is the single greatest natural healing therapy. It is nature's ancient, universal 'remedy' for many problems. Animals instictively fast when ill."
all from Elson Haas, M.D. in Staying Healthy with Nutrition
"Due to [the] effects of fasting, a fast can help you heal with greater speed; cleanse your liver, kidneys, and colon; purify your blood; help you lose excess weight and water; flush out toxins; clear the eyes and tongue; and cleanse the breath."
James F. Balch, M.D., in Prescription for Nutritional Healing
"Therapeutic [water] fasting accelerates the healing process and allows the body to recover from serious disease in a dramatically short period of time."
"Fasting, combined with nutritional competence, removes the most significant causes of disease."
"Therapeutic fasting is not a mystical or magical cure. It works because the body has within it the capacity to heal when the obstacles to healing are removed. Health is the normal state. Most chronic disease is the inevitable consequence of living a life-style that places disease-causing stressors on the human organism. Fasting gives the body an interlude without those stressors so that it can speedily repair or accomplish healing that could not otherwise occur in the feeding state."
"The job of fasting is to supply the body with the ideal environment to accomplish its work of healing."
"The body's wondrous ability to autolyze (or self-digest) and destroy needless tissue such as fat, tumors, blood vessel plaque, and other nonessential and diseased tissues, while conserving essential tissues, gives the fast the ability to restore physiologic youth to the system. By removing or lessening the burden of diseased tissue, including the fatty tissue narrowing the blood vessels, fasting increases the blood flow and subsequent oxygenation and nutrient delivery to vital organs throughout the body."
all from Joel Fuhrman, M.D., in Fasting and Eating for Health
"Man is the only 'animal' who persists in eating when he is sick, even though he may have no appetite and food makes him nauseous."
"Fasting is a calming experience. It is restful. It relieves anxiety and tension. It is rarely depressing and it is often downright exhilarating."
Alan Cott, M.D., from Fasting: The Ultimate Diet
"Fasting is the strongest appeal to the human being's natural powers of healing and self-rejuvenation, on both a spiritual and corporeal level."
Heinz Fahrner, M.D.
"I often observe in the fasting participants that by four days of fasting, concentration seems to improve, creative thinking expands, depression lifts, insomnia stops, anxieties fade, the mind becomes more tranquil and a natural joy begins to appear. It is my hypothesis that when the physical toxins are cleared from the brain cells, mind-brain function automatically and significantly improves and spiritual capacities expands."
Gabriel Cousins, M.D. (psychiatry)
"Although beginning my practice in fog-covered medical superstition, I came to the conclusion that only nature can practice medicine."
"I contend that during illness feeding becomes a burden to the sick. It uses energy that otherwise would be used to fight the illness."
both from Dr. Edward Dewey
"I must say in all seriousness that fasting when combined with a properly selected diet is the nearest approach to a 'cure-all' that is possible to conceive– profoundly simple and simply profound!"
John Tilden, M.D.
"Religious ascetics, who led their lives abstaining from food, came to the conclusion that fasting improved not only their spiritual state, but also their physical condition, and through fasting many diseases could be cured."
Dr. Inamura Motoo
"I assert that fasting is the most efficient means for correcting any disease."
Adolph Mayer, M.D., from his book Fast Cures – Wondercures
"Fasting creates a condition of low concentration of toxic wastes in the circulatory system. This is sensed by the plasma membrane of each cell and each cell will then let go of its load of toxic wastes."
Ron Kennedy,

we loved the ergo for DS (still use it now and hes already over 2). .. but what does one use for twins? I can see a lot of times Id like to go for a walk or to the store with them (its a 3 block walk) but really prefer a carrier to a stroller.. esp with the stairs in and out of our apartment.
So what works? we used a moby but found it was too hot in the summer with DS and often took too long to get on/off for it to work for quick trips (ok, Im lazy) but I know they can work for twins.. any other less.. um advanced wrap like carriers people might recommend, like a dual sling.. or something :)
DS1 Dec 2009 DZ Twins July 2012
I haven't had my twins yet but I'm planning on a moby to slip both into the front when they're tiny and when they can sit up a bit more I'm going to use 2 ring slings or 2 mei tai's (one on front and one on back). The moby will be nice when they're tiny because you don't have to take it off every time you slip them out, just re-tighten when you get them back in and situated. I hope my plan works because I'm going to have a 1.5 year old to deal with when they're born and it won't be easy keeping up with her if I can't wrap the babies on me.

Thanks for the idea. My son will be 14 months when my twins are born. Nice to see someone in a similar position. I found this online: http://www.amazon.com/TwinTrexx-TTXX-1-Versatile-Twin-Carrier/dp/B004Y6MVSA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327339593&sr=8-1
Do any other mom's have other ideas?
Mom of DS born 4/1/11. Wife and Middle-school teacher. Expecting Di/Di boy twins in June, 2012.
I am wondering if the moby if I was doing it wrong? I had zero luck with my DS in it (he was almost 10 lbs at birth). He always sort of slipped down in it, I found the fabric to be too elastic for another distance of walking but worked well as long as I stayed at home..
the mei tais sound like a good idea.. fav brands?

I wouldn't go with that carrier personally because it looks like a "crotch dangler" type carrier. From what I've learned this can lead to excessive stress on the hips and crotch which could potentially cause problems later in life. I'm not an expert but I'm sure someone here has more knowledge on the subject.

Did you try different ways to tie it? I found some positions for my DD were uncomfortable for me and her but I watched lots of youtube videos until I found a way to wrap it so it worked for both of us. Of course it didn't last for long, maybe not longer than 2 months before she didn't like that anymore and I just ended up using a ring sling. The mei tai I bought was a used (too expensive for me new) babyhawk brand because I wanted the cushioned straps. My husband and I both loved it and still use it today, especially when we go grocery shopping so people don't feel inclined to touch her.

at 41.3 weeks, and 06/12 our fraternal DDs A and V were hospital birth at 41.1 weeks.
Even more than with single babies, be very careful of your back when carrying twins (because they grow twice as fast, there being two babies). I had a back injury from too much carrying. This got very long. I seem to have opinions.
Try a variety of wraps. We were incredibly lucky and had people give us a whole lot of slings as hand-me-downs (we caught the tail end of three different families' baby time). Babywearing groups can be great for trying things out.
When mine were very small, I used a single moby wrap, with both babies in it. I agree, it was a huge pain to tie it on, and it seemed like as soon as it was tied someone needed feeding. When they got a little bigger, I would wear them in separate mobies: wrap one moby and put it on and put the baby in, over to the side, then wrap the second moby over the first. Sounds absurd, but the babies felt less squished. This takes some time to do, but if they both need bouncing at the same time, it can be worth it.
My husband and I did a lot of going places together with two baby bjorns or two mei tais.
For going in and out of places, I often either put one baby in a carrier and carry the other (it's far more secure than just carrying both in arms) or put one in a bucket and one in the carrier (because then I can set one baby down and have a free hand). This is particularly good for coming in from the car or going to a doctor's appointment.
One baby in a carrier (usually a mei tai) and one in arms is a nice quick way to do things, but it's how I hurt my back.
It took a while before I could do a back carry, but now I sometimes wear two mei tais with one baby on my back and one on my front. (load the back baby first, then the front...and take care of where you put the ties) I can't get a baby into an ergo or boba on my back on my own (too fiddly) so that doesn't happen very often.
I also sometimes go out with one baby in a sling and the other in a (single) stroller. The single stroller was more maneuverable, and I had more access to the babies that way than if one were on my back. (it is tricky to take the sleeping baby from the sling and put her on top of the crying baby in the stroller, then get the stroller baby out from under and into the sling, but I have done it.)
In the beginning (the first six weeks) we often went out with both babies in a single pram (the lie-flat kind). It was really lovely to see them all snuggled up together, and it meant I could nurse (because even now I can't nurse two when we're out) and have somewhere for the other baby to be.
I can also, in a pinch, use pouch slings, one over each shoulder, but that's awkward enough that in those situations I will generally put one baby in a pouch (they're tiny and just live in the diaper bag) and carry the other: again, it's more secure than carrying two babies in arms.
This is a pic of me trying on a couple of different carriers. There is a Beco Butterfly in the back and a Babyhawk mei tai in front. http://s996.photobucket.com/albums/af87/VilloriaBoys/?action=view¤t=91716263.jpg
After playing around a lot, I found that two Beco Geminis work best for me. They are super easy on and off. They work from newborn to toddlers (7 to 35 lbs), front and back. Here's a link: http://www.granolababies.com/beco-gemini/cat_84.html
That twin carrier link on amazon looks very un-ergonomic. I would avoid it.
With geminis you hook both around your waist, then put one baby on your back and the other on the front. This is what you do with any mei tai or SSC.
When the babies are tiny and don't have head control yet, then you won't be able to back carry yet. (Unless you use a woven wrap and learn about back-carrying a newborn.) When mine were tiny (before I discovered Geminis) I put both in a Moby. Personally I wouldn't use a Moby again -- way too hot and not versatile enough. A woven wrap does all a Moby can, and more. Specifically, back carries.
Check out thebabywearer.com for more info too.
ah thank you so much for the link to granolababies but since I am in the EU I dont think she will ship them to me without it being $$.
I had a similar experience with the moby and dont think I would go back to one. too hot, wrong fabric for my heavy babies etc.
I do have one ego with a friend who might give me hers.. so we will have 2 ergos but I really like the look and idea of the babyhawk and also the beco gemini.. hmmm decisions.
Im concerned about the back issues, with DS this last few months I notcied the ergo doesnt work much for us, hes getting so heavy and all his weight ends up on my lower back.. so.. here we go again :)
DS1 Dec 2009 DZ Twins July 2012
I could only carry both in the Moby when they were very tiny (5 lbs) and unopinionated, once they got a little bigger my back was shot and they started to kick each other! What does work now that they are 9 months / 7 adjusted, is one in the Ergo and one on my hip. They hold on like little Koala bears now :)
I second the caution about hips, make sure the carrier puts baby in a sitting position not a "crotch dangle" position. That causes development issues in their hips. Ergo and Beco both rock and didn't hurt my back. I know of one twin mom who wears DS on the front in Ergo and DD on her back in Ergo...I have NO idea how she does that!!!
Wife to DH Momma to twin girls cloth diapering, no vaxing, family bed, organic living, eating and wearing family!
When they were really little I carried them together in an ergo. It's not strictly approved, but I felt that I could keep their butts in safely since they really were tiny. Here's a pic:
We also did front and back Ergo quite a bit when I had them by myself. I also found that if I was out and about with family or friends most people were willing to carry or "ergo" a baby. I'm currently making two fitted pocket slings with material I have around the house in hopes that I can carry both with hip carries easier, as I'm often just carrying them both free hand anyways! Good Luck!

This is a common complaint with Moby wraps. They are a stretchy wrap which are more forgiving to new users but less supportive and saggy with bigger babes. If you consider goingoing the wrap route again make sure and look for a woven wrap. They are very supportive for both babe and you. Try thebabywearer.com for tons of info. That being said although I'm an avid wrapper I haven't tried wrapping two yet
myself. I think I might today though. It's time to go for it I think.

I guess for us, we are going to have two ergos since a friend is giving us one- so then it just becomes a question of it I can 'double ergo' (one front, one back) safely or if its a problem.. I really like the look of the beco gemini but not sure its different enough from an ergo to warrant getting one..
DS1 Dec 2009 DZ Twins July 2012
Both: Comfy, ergonomic front and back carries. Quick in and out. Can wear one at a time or two.
(1) Can wear the straps criss-crossed in the back, or backpack style.
(2) Can carry smaller babies (7 lbs +) without an extra insert that is hot and expensive.
(3) Can adjust the base / seat to be narrow or wide to accommodate smaller babies.
(4) Can do ergonomic FFO if you choose.
(5) Tends to be more comfy for petite wearers (shorter waists, smaller shoulders). This was the kicker for me. I am very short (5') and have narrow shoulders. The ergo I couldn't cinch the straps tight enough around my shoulders to be secure.
(1) Has a higher max weight limit. Goes up to 45 lbs rather than 35.
Since you already have an ergo plus your friend's to use, try them out first!
Ooh and there are lots of Europeans on the thebabywearer.com, so I'm sure if you check out their FSOT section you can find some carriers to try.
Another helpful thing for us was to use a rolled receiving blanket under the baby's butt to help position them when they were "froggy" legged inside the ergo. We had an infant insert and we hated it. It was just one more thing to fumble with and the rolled blanket under their butt worked better. I was able to do front and back carries both before they could hold their heads up really well since they were so little the back of the carrier came up higher than their heads. I needed help getting them in and out, but it was an option.

Just skimming over some old threads here. I'm happy to say I'm loving wrapping my twins. One back and one front now that they are over 11 lb each. In my avatar I'm just using I long wrap, but most of the time I use 2 now. Anyone else make some discoveries carrying their twins?
Your wrap looks great! That is just the carry I want to try when mine get here! Could you let me know how you learned it and what length of fabric please! Also, they're still so "tiny", when did you start the high back carry? Thanks so much!!

at 41.3 weeks, and 06/12 our fraternal DDs A and V were hospital birth at 41.1 weeks.
I was b'feeding so much the first 3 months that not much carrying got done - I did learn to wrap one twin on my back whilst I nursed the other and used that from time to time. I couldn't use the moby for long, so was pointless to put both in at a time (good for kangaroo care in NICU though).
At 5 months I got a Beco Butterfly II and started to wrap one on the front and Beco the larger twin on the back.
I don't recommend wrapping them both on the front. I really pulled muscles that way and felt like michelin man. I did get the hang of wrapping one on front and one on back, but again not so useful for frequency of b'feeding even when out and about. Super for quick trips.
When they got heavier (and when I needed to be out for long periods of time), I put one baby in a parent facing pushchair and carried the other. I would swap them about at first, but found that one demanded to be carried more in the house, and the other outside, so that became how it went. Everyone was happy.
After age 1 I swapped the Beco for an Ergo.
spread a lot of love
I recommend the Action Baby Carrier is a lightweight soft structured child carrier, better for warm temperatures. The body of the carrier is completely unpadded which allows for more breathability....hopefully keeping mom (or dad) and baby a little bit cooler! It's weight limit is 40 lbs. I've seen some moms wears there twins using this carr inier in a front and back carries. I was already waiting for my ABC and hope to use it with my baby on my next shopping scedule. Hope this helps! Goodluck!
Living is great but being a MOM is even better

Two Ergos works!!
We also loved the Ergo for DS and wondered how we'd manage with twins. For the first 3 months I carried my girls together in a stretchy wrap, but then they got too big so we switched to the Ergos. We'd also been given a second Ergo as a hand me down. It took a bit of getting used to in the beginning - especially getting the straps right on top of each other, but now I find it really manageable and comfortable. I put one baby on my back first (I use the hip scootching method - basically put them on my front, hold the straps in one hand and then scootch them around to my back), then put second babe on my front. For baby that's on my back, I do the Ergo waist a bit tighter and higher up that I would normally (almost just below my breasts). This leaves me more room for the 2nd waist belt. You want to make sure that the straps are on top of each other, otherwise it's not as comfortable. My girls are small - probably around 14 lbs each (they're almost 6 months old) but I can carry them comfortably in the Ergos for a while (I think the longest I've done has been 2+ hours).
Now if only I could figure out a way to nurse the baby that I'm carrying on my back!!!!

Using three-dimensional classical ensembles, we have investigated the internuclear distance dependence of nonsequential double ionization (NSDI) of H 2 molecules by an 800 nm, 1×1014 W/cm2 laser pulse. For the internuclear distance R ranging from 2 to 12 a.u., the NSDI of H 2 provides rich correlation patterns in the two-electron momentum distributions. These correlation patterns essentially reveal different microscopic dynamics in NSDI process. Moreover, our calculations show that R ≈ 4 a.u. is the critical distance for double ionization yield of H 2.

text: Hello there, I was looking for the PT word imagética in English and found - not officially though - imagetic. The definition in Pt is something that contains images or reveals imagination, like in a "imagetic" poem. The single place where I found a definition for it was in that not so reliable dictionary. See it here. = filled with a lot of images. Also I found it related to semiotic and some other English pages, but coincidently most of the En pages were referring to Brazilian pages (universities articles) or Portuguese ones. My question is: which word does English use with this meaning? Is imagetic a neologism? An adaptation from the Pt word? Or ...? Thank you!

US international defender Jay DeMerit has his sights set on joining MLS, according to a report, and the Vancouver Whitecaps remain favorites to land the former Watford captain.
"Since playing back in the US was always something I wanted to do, and have yet to do, it seems like the time is right," DeMerit told ESPN.com.
Last month reports surfaced that DeMerit had been negotiating with the Whitecaps, who are set to join MLS in 2011. The central defender has ties with Whitecaps director of soccer operations Tom Soehn, who was an assistant coach at the Chicago Fire when DeMerit played on their PDL team in 2001.
Should DeMerit opt to join the league, he would be assigned to a club based on its allocation order as he is a returning US international. The Whitecaps hold the first allocation pick for next season, meaning they would have first refusal of the Wisconsin native. They could also trade away his rights to another MLS team.
DeMerit, who made 182 appearances for Watford, indicated to ESPN.com that more than one MLS club has shown interest in signing him.
The 30-year-old is a free agent and has been seeking a new club since Watford declined to renew his contract at the end of last season. A starter in all four of the USA's World Cup games this past summer, he initially hoped a European club would sign him following the tournament, and there were reports that various British clubs, including Tim Howard's Everton, and Bundesliga side Wolfsburg had shown interest.
"Until I sign a contract with any club, of course I'm open to anything," he told ESPN.com. "But my main focus at the moment is coming back to the MLS. I know things can always change in a second in this sport."

Menghini, the two-time defending Class A champion in the pole vault, made her return to action after missing most of the season with a broken foot. But she shook off the rust by winning districts with a vault of 11-feet, 7-inches, a new high for Class A this year.
Menghini was one of three Lady Bulldog vaulters to qualify for state. Tori Kurth finished in third place at 9-2 and Rachel Kosmacek was fourth at 8-2.
Catelyn Lee also won the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 17.2 seconds.

For the boys, Lamphear won the pole vault with a height of 14-2 and Marcos Avalos finished third in the event at 13-2.

The duo also placed in the 1600, where McGuire finished second and Haws was fourth.
Caleb Dodge finished second in four events - the long jump, the triple jump, and the 110 and 300-meter hurdles.
The NPHS boys will have its 400 and 3200 meter relays going to state. The 3200 meter relay team of Joe Godfrey, Dale Ragle, Haws and McGuire finished in fourth place, as did the 400 meter relay with Grant Holscher, Alec Wesslund, Austin Chitty and Jake Zimbelman.

I've tried this about a dozen times and I can get the app to crash every time:
1. In any document, create a new layer separate from the Background layer.
2. Draw any selection into any layer and then load that selection as a mask into the layer created in step 1.
3. Deselect the selection.
4. Use the paint bucket tool to fill the layer created in Step 1 (not the mask) with color. Immediately upon clicking in the layer, the app crashes.
Works every time, but only if you follow these instructions in the exact order given. Any intermediary steps seem to quash the bug before it becomes a problem, e.g., if you brush into the layer before using the paint bucket tool, it won't crash when you use the paint bucket.

I just got word that the old MOG.com site is being mothballed. I have some music posts there that I'd like to save, so, lucky reader - here's new old content for you! This was originally posted 12/23/06.
So, now we're in punky emo land, which, you know, is more my speed. The screamo stuff is a little (okay, a LOT) over the top for me, but hey, I'm almost an old man. I'm allowed to have my "kids these days" moments. There's a lot of the emo-y, punky bands around, plenty of them on the radio, too. In fact, there's enough of them to make Daughtry sound sorta novel (you know, that band featuring the guy from AmIdol last year?).
So, there's one thing in particular that I've especially never loved about Cock Rock, and that's the "hoodley". The "hoodley" is what the singer for a band I was in called the solos that you find from, say, Steve Vai, Van Halen, Yngwie Malmsteen. They're okay. I don't mind a little tappy guitar solo now and again. I like my share of metal, really. I do. I tend more toward Industrial, though. Skinny Puppy, Ministry, that sort of stuff. The grindy, not the flashy. Or the indie. Futureheads, Bloc Party. Or to reference some good ol' rock 'n' roll, Superdrag, Dillon Fence, Replacements. Bendy, not flashy.
So...imagine my surprise, I'm watching Taking Back Sunday on the David Letterman show: the singer's prancing around, doing his yelling vocals thing, they're rockin' allright, and about 2:40 in, the guitar player busts out a hoodley:
Ok. Someone got their chocolate in my peanut butter and we are NOT amused.

Well, it might be, given that D3 Publisher went so far as to do their gameplay trailer dubbed in English (check it below), with Japanese subtitles instead of the other way around. This doesn't happen too often for Japanese games without plans to cross the pond. That said, D3 is still mum on any official announcements. For all we know they could just be doing it to give some local English-speakers a temp job.
Still, more otaku-pandering feather boa action on your Xbox 360? I'll take some of that (if I ever get around to buying an Xbox 360).

Mattie Covatch from New York City, New Yorkposted over 4 years ago
I have a nice house that's cheap and better than nearby rentals. Rent is comparable to nearby rooms for rent. Actually, it's a little cheaper than many.
I don't include photos on craigslist yet, instead e-mailing them upon inquiry.
I don't accept pets, want one roommate only, no evictions, and it's non-smoking only, so I'm eliminating a good chunk of the rental market already.
Any tips for getting more (and better) inquiries?
Should I reduce rent?
If so, how much? Should I knock $10 or $20 off and see what happens?
This room is "bills paid" already.
Should I allow rent?
Wait a while?
My room is occupied now, but I need to find a new tenant for February 1.
Do people often search for rooms so close to move-in?
Should I expect to not have a roommate for February? We're at the 2 weeks away mark, and I wonder if there's really any chance I'll find a decent tenant/roommate who can move in within 2 weeks that I want to live with.

The replacement refs won't be relieved anytime soon.
On Wednesday, the NFL sent a memo to all 32 teams, informing them the backup crews who've officiated throughout the preseason will be "on the field when the regular season begins."
Perhaps the kinks will be ironed out.
In the preseason, the Chargers have seen their share.
Officiating is a fast-paced, imperfect profession, and as the replacements gain comfort to the rules and speed of the game, there have been noticeable growing pains along the way.
A Sporting News poll this month reported that 90.4 percent of players said the game would be negatively impacted by replacement referees. Seventy-one of the 132 respondents, or 48.6 percent, said the game would "suffer greatly."
In the Chargers locker room, many have expressed recognition for the challenge facing the replacements, who come from such levels as high schools and small colleges. The NFL assigned them during its ongoing labor dispute and lockout of the NFL Referees Association.
"To pick (the rule book) up quick, it's almost impossible for anybody," fullback Jacob Hester said earlier this month. "These guys are coming from lower college levels and whatnot. ... They're obviously doing the best they can."
Others, when asked about the officiating, have stopped themselves short of answering.
"I'll tell you if you pay my fine," one said.
In the first half alone last week against the Vikings, the Chargers recorded an interception originally ruled incomplete (reversed after a challenge), a fumble recovery ruled down by contact (reversed after a challenge), and had 11 penalties called against them.
Against the Cowboys the week before, it took about 2 minutes, 40 seconds between the time a referee's flag hit the grass and the time the ruling finished being explained.
The Chargers were also rewarded an interception that game despite being penalized for an illegal hit earlier on it. San Diego was given the ball on its own 7 instead of the Cowboys retaining possession in the red zone.

SENATOR FUSCHILLO CONGRATULATES FREEPORT HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL COACH ON 300th CAREER WIN
Senator Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr. (R-Merrick) recently congratulated Freeport High School basketball coach, and Merrick resident, Bob DeBonis for earning his 300th career win. Coach DeBonis, who has coached at Freeport for 21 years, secured this milestone victory earlier this year when Freeport defeated Carey High School by a score of 64-53.
"Coach DeBonis should be very proud of this great accomplishment. He has spent his entire career shaping the lives of young men to help them excel both on and off the court. Bob DeBonis is not just a successful coach; he is a role model as well. It is wonderful to see him achieve this milestone and I wish him continued success," said Senator Fuschillo.
Senator Fuschillo (left), along with Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg (second right) is pictured as he congratulates Coach DeBonis (left center) on earning his 300th career victory. They are joined by (l-r) Coach DeBonis' wife, Maggie, and his children, Bobby and Stephanie.

John Madden Retires
April 16, 2009 - The end of a broadcast era was announced today, as John Madden announced his retirement from broadcasting. In a statement released by NBC Sports, Madden said, "It's time. I'm 73 years old. My 50th wedding anniversary is this fall. I have two great sons and their families and their five grandchildren are at an age now when they know when I'm home and, more importantly, when I'm not. ... It's been a great ride."
IGN Presents the History of Madden
August 8, 2008 - Electronic Arts' Madden series is a dynasty greater than any in professional sports. In the two decades since its inception, the Madden series has helped build and destroy console empires. It outlasted the rise and fall of SEGA's hardware in America, and contributed to both. It was key in boosting EA from a small independent developer to an international publishing giant. Simply put, the Madden series is the most powerful franchise on the continent. The name Madden has now come to mean so much more than just a Hall of Fame coach and commentator. It's practically synonymous with video game football. Brands like this aren't simply bought and licensed; they're built and fiercely defended. As the Madden series turns 20, we take a look back at how EA took on all comers to create the highest grossing series North America has ever seen.
The 25 Best Quarterbacks in Madden History
August 6, 2008 - Last week, we went through the annals of Madden history and found the 10 Worst Quarterbacks in Madden History, a list that no quarterback would ever want to find himself on. Alas, Wally Richardson and company now likely will beat us up if they ever recognize us in public.
The Ten Worst Teams In Madden History
August 1, 2008 - Yesterday, we detailed the Ten Worst Quarterbacks in Madden History, so it's only natural that today, we follow up that piece by looking at the ten worst teams in the history of the franchise. Of course, as hard it is to rate individual players in a game, using those players to formulate ratings for teams is even more difficult guesswork: Keep in mind that the lowest-rated teams in Madden '08 were the Vikings and Titans, and they went a combined 18-14 when the real action started.
The Ten Worst Quarterbacks in Madden History
July 31, 2008 - The quarterbacks of today have grown up playing one game their entire lives: Madden. From their earliest days as Pop Warner football players, they've dreamt about finding a triple-covered receiver in the last minute of the Super Bowl to either set off a pixellated celebration, get a Madden Card, or 30 Achievement Points.
Madden Features From The Dead
July 23, 2008 - One of the complaints that gamers have regarding the Madden franchise, whether they're fans of it or not, is that the game "...is just a roster update" and never has any new features. Whether that's true or not is another debate that's largely semantic, but something that we can look at and actually analyze is how successful the features implemented in each year's version of Madden actually are. Do the new features introduced in Madden actually stick around? How often do they get retooled? By starting back at the initial release of John Madden Football for the Sega Genesis and SNES in 1990, we can actually see if the game's newest features become established hits or epic failures.
A Career in Video Games: Brett Favre
March 10, 2008 - Brett Favre's retirement last week brought to an end the career of one of pro football's living legends -- a man who, in the eyes of many, could do no wrong. Few football fanbases are more insular and appreciative than Green Bay (logical considering the fans actually own the Packers), and for the denizens of Lambeau, Favre was a man who they trusted implicitly.
Michael Strahan Through The (Madden) Years
January 28, 2008 - It's easy to forget that Giants defensive end Michael Strahan was the center of controversy and seemingly about to retire in August, holding out from both the Giants training camp and preseason games while questioning both his desire to play and, off the record, whether he wanted to do so for the amount of money he was due this season. Of course, fast-forward five months and Strahan's famously barren smile is almost constantly on display.
How to Kill a Franchise
June 14, 2007 - Seeing a beloved franchise crumble into a defunct mishmash of horrid ideas and misconstrued concepts seems to happen all too often in this day and age of money grabbing bottom-liners. A great game is relatively easy to create in comparison to what it takes to sustain that greatness throughout an entire series. Some franchises are great at keeping a high level of quality, whereas others take a swan dive into the shallow end of the pool. It might not be so bad when a company makes a one-hit-wonder that then flops, but when a series has been in our hearts for generations of systems and then takes an incredible downturn in quality, that's when we have to turn our hateful gaze to the publishers responsible. We're usually not in the business of calling people out for shoddy development jobs, but in some cases, an exception must be made. In this article we'll detail some of our most beloved series that have taken a grave turn for the worse, and then tell you how future installments can right the ship. And yes, not even Electronic Arts will be spared this time around.
Top 10 Tuesday: Games Starring Stars
May 30, 2007 - This week we're counting down the top celebrity games. The practice of attaching a recognizable face to a title is almost as old as the videogame industry itself. (Come to think of it, slapping Fonzie's mug onto the cabinet is probably the only thing that would have sold more units of Pong.) Some of these games are awesome, and some are even more awesome, but they are all representative of a society obsessed with celebrity.

Hey Greg,
I have a couple of questions. Is there a problem on the arete to the right of the Hueco problem? And what is the name/grade of the problem on the over hanging face that's on the west side, right of the hueco problem, of the Hueco wall boulder?
By Greg Parker
From: Cardiff, CA
Aug 3, 2009
|Hey Gary. Sorry, I missed your questions. I don't know if there is a problem on the arete. I've never done it. If it looks climbable, chances are it's been done :) As for the problem to the right, I can't remember the name, but I think it was around V2 or 3. Does that sound right? It has some angular semi-sharp holds, right? Sorry, I'm not much help.
