Gluten-free Girl book giveaway!
46 comments:
I'm so gonna add that blog to my list ! Thanks :-)ReplyDelete
I've been gluten free since November and I feel 100% better! I found Gluten-free Girl's blog and also enjoy her writing style. I do not have her book, but would like to add it to my growing library of GF cookbooks. I also love Rebecca Reilly's Gluten Free Baking. It has an amazing banana bread (Eleanor's Banana Bread) and the mint brownies are fab! I just found your blog today and can't wait to try your recipes too.ReplyDelete
- Katie4:45 PM
My boyfriend was diagnosed with a wheat allergy earlier this year and has been finding it extremely hard to adapt. I've been following your blog since just before Valentine's day, and I've already tried some of your recipes for him, and he's loved them!ReplyDelete
I would love to read this book, if you would ship to Canada. I think it would help him, and myself adapt to the change.
I have three copies of this book, I should do a give away as well. It is wonderful, her blog is great. But Jill Elise, I have to tell you, your recipes are fantastic! Everything I have tried, I will make again. Most recently I made your potato latkes (the fried version) and I could not believe how great they were. I am making the pulled pork next week. Your every bit as talented!ReplyDelete
I didn't know she had the book...and have her on my blog roll..bad me...ReplyDelete
LOVE all your recipes...get rave reviews from my gluten eating family! And they ALL have worked. And I did attach your blog to those devilish peanut butter cookies...OH MY!
So keep up the good work and hopefully I'll make the cookbook win! smile
- Sonya Hemmings9:08 PM
Love her blog--and yours, too! I just made your pie crust recipe today for the fourth time (cherry pie for desert!). It's so awesome! You help make it easy for me to cook for two people I love: my 8-year-old son with multiple food allergies (the vegan aspect of your recipes is perfect for his egg/dairy allergies!), and my sister-in-law, a newly diagnosed celiac who is also five months pregnant with a surprise baby No. 3! Thanks for your inspiration!ReplyDelete
i've been reading her blog for almost 2 years! I don't have her book yet, but my sister, who just found out she can't have gluten, is freaking out about it and will be getting this book from me...one way or another.ReplyDelete
Your blog is exciting, inspiring and makes me feel comfortable being gluten free!
don't pick me! look at you!ReplyDelete
My mom discovered she was a celiac a while ago, and always laments about the things she can't eat anymore. I want to support her more, but I think I'm addicted to bread. I would love to give this to her as a present, it would be great to put something in her hands instead of sending her emails. Hard to do when you're across the world :)ReplyDelete
Love her, would love the book!ReplyDelete
well, I can't really resist! My mom, my aunt, my grandfather, and I all found out we had gluten intolerances within the past few years. It's been interesting, to say the least :)ReplyDelete
I just started GF blogging and am totally inspired to broaden my horizons; all the inspiration I can get is well-appreciated!
Thanks for the great recipes (currently drooling over mandelbrot...)
I *love* her blog. Yours, too. Differently. :) Thanks for the cookies ... I've been craving something to dip into my tea!ReplyDelete
Thank you for the contestReplyDelete
I would love to win this book for my best friend who recently found out that she was allergic to gluten. Thank you for offering this giveaway! eyeslikesugar [at] gmail [dot] com.ReplyDelete
I'm about 2 months into the world of GF - even if I don't win, thanks for the book recommendation! I'll have to check it out. =)ReplyDelete
Oh yes, I would love to have my very own copy. I keep taking it out of the library, but to have one sitting permanently on my shelf would be lovely!ReplyDelete
Thanks for the mention about my mandel bread! Glad yours worked out.
best, Ellen
love to read this oneReplyDelete

The Phillies tried to land CC Sabathia before the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline, but came up empty.
They probably could have squeezed him into their rotation somewhere.
Sabathia ia 7-0 with a 1.40 ERA in seven starts since the all-star break. He is making a case for National League MVP and Cy Young. But interestingly, Brett Myers has been nearly as effective since he rejoined the rotation after his four-start stint in the minors. He is 3-1 with a 1.94 ERA in six starts since the break.
That includes last night's 4-0 shutout over the Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park.
Sabathia and Myers have been two of the four most effective starting pitchers in baseball since the break (with a minimum of 25 innings pitched):
CC Sabathia: 7-0, 1.40 ERA, seven starts.
Randy Johnson: 4-2, 1.56 ERA, six starts.
Brandon Webb: 5-0, 1.76 ERA, six starts.
Brett Myers: 3-1, 1.94 ERA, six starts.
"It's a big acquisition that didn't have to happen" in a trade, centerfielder Shane Victorino said of Myers' return. "You didn't have to give up the farm system to go get a guy."
Myers just needs to continue to pitch like that because the offense hasn't been providing anybody much run support. The Phillies had nine hits last night, which was their most since they had 10 hits Aug. 11 in the first game of their seven-game road trip through Los Angeles and San Diego. They haven't had more than 10 hits since they had 11 hits against the Nationals on July 31.
The Phillies have won four of their last five, but have hit just .219 and scored just 15 runs (3.0 runs per game) in that stretch.
But the fact that Myers is pitching better (even though two of those six starts have come against the horrendous Nationals) is a good sign. Cole Hamels, Jamie Moyer and Myers looks like a fairly formidable trio should the Phillies make the playoffs again. But they've got to start hitting, too.
In the Phillies Notebook: Pedro Feliz is back, David Ross is headed elsewhere, Hamels won't be facing the Mets next week and more.

Frank Ocean, Diddy, The-Dream, and More Show Support for Trayvon Martin
Support for slain teenager Trayvon Martin has been picking up by the masses this past week. Everyone seems to be getting involved in showing awareness to get justice served. The latest bunch of support comes from hip-hop and R&B artists Frank Ocean, Diddy, Nelly, The-Dream, Jamie Foxx, Ludacris, and Swizz Beatz—all wearing hoodies to resemble the one Trayvon wore the night he was killed by George Zimmerman.—Keenan Higgins
Peep the gallery of images we put together of these artists standing up for the cause.

Corn: With all the pre-selling going into Friday's report, some type of a bounce was expected. First resistance on the December chart was 436-1/4, which was the first target for buyers and they quickly hit that level Monday.
Now we have seen heavy selling going into the report followed by some buying back after. This is the point where the corn market can finally trade sideways. Bulls have been buying fresh 37-month lows for over a week and with the sellers quiet today, buyers were able to hit first resistance.
Now the question is: Just how far can this market be pushed higher? Friday's 1.89 billion bushel carryout allows for a bounce but is far from suggesting a longer term rally can be seen. Early thoughts post report is that there is a little for both the corn bulls and bears right now to provide a trading range…Ryan Ettner
Soybeans: With the report out and the government closed in honor of Veterans Day, news to trade Monday was limited. Early in the session, beans were under pressure as unwinding of the short corn/long bean spread dominated the trade. Coming into Monday, the trade was estimating that funds were short 191,500 corn contracts and long 131,900 contracts. With the November report out of the way, some in trade no doubt were in the mood to book some profits.
Late in the session, the bean market did come back and was able to close on the plus side. Looking at Friday's report, it still looks like the USDA is underestimating demand. On the report they raised exports 80 million bushels and raised the crush 30 million bushels and we do not think that this is enough. With the crush margins so strong, we would look for the crush number to be increased 10 to 20 million bushels on upcoming reports.
As for exports, we think they will have to be bumped up at least another 25 million bushels. As of last week, the United States has sold 84% of anticipated export sales goal. The five-year sales pace for export sales is 60% sold. This 84% sold figure includes the 80 million bushel jump in demand on Friday.
Weather in South American looks great and suggests that their crop will only get bigger if this good weather can be sustained. It is estimated that about 59% of their bean crop has been planted. The Brazil government is estimating the crop will fall in the 87.9 to 90.2 mmt range. Last year's crop totaled 81.5 mmt. With the USDA report out of the way, and the next WASDE report a month out, we would look for a more sideways action in the bean market near term.
With the weather looking so good in South America, we are hesitant to chase the market over the $13 level, but with the strong demand we have been seeing we would think dips will find support.
On this Veterans Day, I would like to thank all of you who served our country. Thank you and best wishes…Jim McCormick.

Motor Mill Bridge is in place
[nggallery id=15]After more than 21 years, a bridge again crosses the Turkey River at Motor Mill. Crews from Minnowa Construction used large cranes to lift the two spans of the steel bridge into place on Tuesday, November 20. The structure is designed to closely resemble the historic, 1895 bridge that was destroyed by the floods of 1991 and 2008.
The new spans sit atop a center pier and abutments, which were refurbished and raised about four feet to avoid future flooding. Minnowa employees will add a wooden plank deck, guardrails, and other finishing touches in the next few days.
The Motor Mill Foundation and the Clayton County Conservation Board, which manages the Motor Mill Historic Site, will hold a ribbon cutting ceremony to officially open the bridge on Saturday, Dec. 8, at 11 a.m. The first person to cross the bridge will be the winner of a raffle, which closes at noon on Dec. 7.
The Motor Mill Foundation is continuing a fund drive to pay for the $1 million bridge project. The Foundation needs to raise about $90,000 to supplement a $432,000 grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), $463,000 from Iowa's Resources Enhancement and Protection program (REAP), $20,000 from Upper Mississippi Gaming, $33,000 from Iowa Great Places, and $11,000 from Clayton County Secondary Roads.
The new bridge will be open to vehicles, with some weight and/or length restrictions. It should improve access to Motor Mill, which since 1991 has been reachable only via six miles of gravel on Grape and Galaxy Roads. The new Turkey River crossing shortens the gravel to just two miles, via Hazel and Galaxy Roads from Grandview Road at Communia.
The County Conservation Board and the Motor Mill Foundation are continuing restoration and development of the Motor Mill site. Future plans call for installing new windows in the Cooperage, replacing roofs on the Cooperage and Ice House, renovations to improve visitor access to the inside of the Mill, repairs of flood damage to the Inn and Stable, removal of silt from the basement of the Mill, and building a levee to prevent future flooding. Discussions are under way with landowners to allow development of a trail along the Turkey River between Motor and Elkader.
For details of a raffle to choose the first person to cross the bridge, call the Conservation Board at 563-245-1516.

PITTSBURGH, Pa. — In a battle of nationally-ranked University Athletic Association squads, the 12th-ranked Brandeis men suffered a heartbreaking overtime loss at #23 Carnegie Mellon, 2-1. With the loss, the Judges fall to 11-3, 1-2 in the UAA, matching their loss total from a year ago. The Tartans improve to 9-2-1 overall, 2-1 in the conference.
After an evenly-played first half in which both teams had three shots, the Judges broke through first in the second. In the 71st-minute, Brandeis earned its only two corner kicks of the game. After the first produced a shot by Brandeis senior back Ben Applefield (Avon, Conn/Avon) that was deflected over the net by CMU senior Christopher Madden, the second resulted in the first goal of the contest. Senior forward Kyle Feather (Pinebrook, N.J./Montville Township) put the ball in the mix, and sophomore back Conor Lanahan (Avon, Conn./Avon) came forward and headed it home. It was Lanahan's second goal of the season.
CMU equalized seven minutes later. Brandeis junior Joe Graffy (Concord, N.H./Concord) came off his line, but the Tartans' Jerome Reano arrived at the ball at the same time. Reano was able to poke it under Graffy for his second of the campaign. CMU had two more chances in regulation, but two went wide and Graffy denied Colin Shaffer in the 81st minute.
In overtime, Brandeis sophomore Josh Hacunda (Hopkinton, Mass./Hopkinton) had the first attempt, shooting high at 93:26. On the counter-attack, the hosts found their game-winner. Carnegie Mellon's senior forward Chris Wysocki took a shot from the left side that was stopped by a diving Graffy, but the ball squirted loose. It deflected off a Brandeis defender and into the net, giving the Tartans their first overtime win in three games this season, while dropping the Judges to 1-1 in OT contests.
For the game, both Graffy and Madden each made two saves. Both sides each had a ball cleared off the line by a defender as well.
Brandeis will return to UAA action on Sunday morning at 11 a.m. at Emory University, while Carnegie Mellon hosts NYU at the same time.

Good afternoon.
We want to make more efficient internal form post in a Web site have a lot of trafic. With internal posts I am talking about the information the user didn't introduce directly in this page, I mean, the information is used for the system. My boss told me search if is better use jquery or AJAX for that. By the way, I am learning jquery so please excuse me if I say some wrong think and please lets me know my mistake.
I have been googling but I only saw how to do ajax's posts through jquery. What do you think is the better option?? Summarizing: we want many of the post happen in the user's computer. We will be really gratefull for any comment, suggestion, etc.
You're in the wrong place. This forum is about JS in PDF files, not on web-pages.

BAYOU CORNE, La. (AP) - Authorities report no new problems with poisonous hydrogen sulfide gas near a large sinkhole in Assumption Parish. A relief well near the sinkhole was shut down after hydrogen sulfide emissions were detected.
However, The Advocate reports that no similar problems have been found in testing of four other wells. That word came from a scientist for Shaw Environmental. Gary Hecox said in a blog post Thursday that researchers found no detectable hydrogen sulfide concentrations in gas being flared from two relief wells.
The other two relief wells had low concentrations of the gas, consistent with a swamp environment. The sinkhole led to evacuation in August of about 150 homes in the Bayou Corne and Grand Bayou areas. Scientists believe a salt cavern from which a company had been extracting brine failed, causing a chain of events that led to the sinkhole and the release of methane gas and crude oil.
Hydrogen sulfide is a colorless gas that is flammable and poisonous at high concentrations. The naturally occurring gas has a foul rotten-egg odor, can occur in natural gas deposits and is a known risk with oil and gas exploration.
Hecox said decaying trees and vegetation in swamps produce hydrogen sulfide. "While low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide have been detected at some of the bubble sites, the concentrations are well below those that would pose a human health risk," Hecox said in the blog. Bubble sites are where natural gas travels through the water to the surface.

Actress Michelle Williams and Jason Segel have gone public with their new romance by attending the New York afterparty for the funnyman's new romantic comedy The Five-Year Engagement.
The new couple was first pictured together last month, strolling hand-in-hand after enjoying a dinner date near Williams' home in Brooklyn, and she showed her support for her new beau on Wednesday by joining him for his new film's premiere at the Ziegfeld Theater.
The Brokeback Mountain star avoided the media by skipping the red carpet, but she took a seat beside Segel for the Tribeca Film Festival screening and joined the cast at an afterparty at the Museum of Modern Art.
A source tells UsMagazine.com, "Michelle was really sweet but her usual shy self in crowds – she stayed close to Jason and only really engaged in conversation with people that she knew. Jason would put his arms around her waist and they gave each other a few sweet pecks – they definitely seemed to have a physical chemistry."
Segel recently confirmed he was dating Williams, telling news show Extra, "I think we would just very much like to be happy. That's all I'm going to say about it."
The My Week With Marilyn beauty was previously engaged to late actor Heath Ledger, the father of her six-year-old daughter Matilda.

Democrats and Republicans seem determined to skate perilously close to the edge of the year-end "fiscal cliff." They're sticking to their guns for now while offering just enough wiggle room to hint at a last-minute compromise.
It's just a matter of who blinks first.
Both sides have aggressively laid down opening demands for budget talks that begin Friday at the White House.
President Barack Obama would raise taxes on households with annual incomes over $250,000. Republicans wouldn't — and insist federal deficits must be restrained mostly by federal spending cuts, including benefit programs.
Neither side wants to see the government go over the cliff on Jan. 1, when a mountain of tax breaks expire and automatic spending cuts kick in, absent congressional action. That could hurl the economy back into recession.
"I'm open to new ideas," said Obama, fresh from his re-election victory. House Speaker John Boehner sees a new "spirit of cooperation."
Thus, Republicans say they could accept some increase in tax revenues — but only by trimming deductions and loopholes. And Democrats are OK with more spending restraint — so long as benefit programs like Medicare and Social Security are protected.
It's a dangerous game.
Voters mostly blamed Republicans for a 1995 government shutdown during a budget impasse with President Bill Clinton.
A postelection Pew Research Center poll shows 53 percent would blame congressional Republicans if no deal is reached by Dec. 31 — compared to 29 percent who'd blame Obama.
The cliff is just over six weeks off — including Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Obama, touring New York storm damage Thursday, leaves Saturday on a four-day Asia trip.
"Time is running out," says House Budget Chairman Dave Camp, R-Mich.
Veteran budget analyst Stan Collender says avoiding the cliff is "less of an imperative for Democrats now than it was before" the election and that "we're more likely to go off the cliff than to avoid it."

It also includes the Bugzilla Connector as the reference task repository implementation, and CVS integration as the reference team support. Additional features can be considered based on the availability community contributions and resources.
In addition to using the planned themes listed below, we need to continue prioritizing the ongoing input of our growing user community. Committers should prioritize bugs in the following order. This order need not be used if a bug contains a community contribution of a patch, in which case the quality of the patch determines the priority.
- Frameworks & APIs: Tasks, Context, Team, Monitor, headless use
- UI: Tasks List, Task Editor, Task-focused UI
- Connectors: Bugzilla (reference implementation), Trac (committer supported), JIRA (community supported)
- Eclipse: 3.3 and 3.4 Milestones (only latest milestone supported at time of release)
- Java: JRE 5.0 or later required
- Operating Systems: all supported by Eclipse
Legend: in progress, completed, optional
Task-Focused UI
- Extensibility: make it possible to create bridges without relying on internals, bug 204495
- Improve feedback and usability of Alt+click navigation: make this feature more discoverable and easier to use. bug 175655
- Improve fidelity of DOI model: the model implementation or tuning has not changed since the 0.3 release, and we need to iterate on the propagation mechanism and scaling factors in order to increase the information density of focused views. bug 118542, bug 150331, bug 175879
- Improve UI for interest manipulation: performance and discoverability need improving, action should be hidden when no task context is active. bug 196120
- Improve resource change listening: opening projects currently causes them to become interesting, as does checking out of CVS bug 120499, bug 197942, bug 202817
- Improve DOI model refactoring support: some refactorings cause the model to lose elements bug 119307, bug 171254, bug 164058
- Improved editor management policy: bug 197338
- Improve context preview facility: performance need improvement, activation should not be required, can provide compare facilitiesbug 174658, bug 138544
User Experience
- Improve bug reporting feedback loop. When an error happens we should make it easier for to report a bug to the relevant task repository. Ensure that bundlings can provide additional handling to retain the producer/consumer separation. bug 150278, bug 182776, Platform: bug 124964
- Streamline task creation. Make it easier to create tasks, fork them, or promote local tasks to repository tasks. bug 154896, bug 152211, bug 203471
Supporting Integrators
- Headless use
- Tasks framework: the usual
- Team framework: making it more generic, Platform/Team contributions
- Context framework: ohter langauges WTP, DLTK
- Improve branding of repositories (e.g. show favicon for repository in editor header)
- EK: task list extensibility bug 210814 and bug bug 199818
Task Editor
- Improve information density on initial open. For common cases the editor should not need to be scrolled after being opened. bug 195656
- Improve flexibility of scheduling and planning. bug comment 158461, bug 173089, bug 150106, bug 158461
- Improve display and navigation of attributes and related tasks and artifacts. Associated tasks, such as dependencies, subtasks, and duplicates. Attachment display also needs to be improved. bug 203661, bug 199675
- Ease Editing. Improve interaction with the editor area and support rich/html/wiki editing where appropriate (e.g. repositories that use markup in comments). bug 203670
- Improve representation of people. People are currently treated as email addresses. They should instead be an object that supports flexible display and operations such as content assist and additional actions. bug 204068
- Improve performance of opening. Tasks with very long comments or a large number of comments can be slow to open due to our use of multiple source viewers, and to to the wrapping computation of source viewers. bug 204054
- Make the save lifecycle more flexible. Improve support of direct manipulation in a view (e.g. marking Complete via the Task List) and better handling or edits with additional workflow (e.g. attachments). Support saving unsubmitted tasks.
- Synchronize time with repository: bug 212108
- Extensibility: ...
Task List Management
- bug 211011 improve Task List rendering
- Restore, bug 206734
- Design better interaction for Archive and Uncategorized categories
- Improve desktop notification mechanism
- Search of local tasks bug 205627
- Improve presentation of incoming changes (bug 177208)
- Customization/flexibility of attributes displayed, e.g. bug 199345
- Support lightweight workflow in task editor
- Streamline task creation (e.g. from existing artifact like a JUnit trace (bug 152869)), cloning tasks (bug 161646))
- Improve experience working with a minimized Task List (e.g. show active task and working set somewhere on trim when minimized, ensure no visual redundancy when Task List visible).
- Improve perspectives and switching (e.g. settle on 3 frequently used ones, use a radio button toolbar group for single-click toggle, consider extracting groupings as another view option)
- EK: multiple instances of Task List view to facilitate drag and drop and different presentations; more flexible ways to group tasks without creating many queries (to make it easier to deal with and observe many issues; it is also one of the most voted requests); improve task editor usability (i.e. scroll to recent changes, sync editor with outline and other views); tagging tasks and creating custom task hierarchies; improving task list storage for incremental updates and allow full text search (perhaps using lucene)
Task Planning
- Synching with connector timings bug 181911
- Improve scheduling and due date presentation (reduce amount of red visible in a typical Task List)
- Improve task activity collection, manipulation and display
- Improve overlap with connectors' planning facilities
Task List Models
- Content providers vs. filters and groupings (e.g. subtasks) bug 199818
- Better support for presentations
- Generic schema vs. connector-specific schema
- Improve modularity of content providers / filters / interest / presentations
- Common task schema
- generic XML format for repository task data and repo configuration
- EK: the above is either the same or need to be clarified. Is these formats intended for import/export or for working with 3rd party repositories. The former probably better to address with public API instead of relying on the schema.
- Synchronization priority
- Network I/O responsiveness, cancellability
- Incremental synch architecture
- Network settings and full set of proxy configuration options
- Attachments: integrate attachments as stream-based ressources
- Authentication: support additional authentication types, e.g. SSL-certificates
- Contexts: make I/O API stream-based
- Synchronization Jobs: support cancellation, provide factories for creating Job objects
- Task Data: support creation of repository tasks offline
- Task Editor: decompose AbstractTaskEditor and make extensibility explicit
- Task List Data Model: make data model thread-safe, specify data structure (e.g. no cycles), review type hierarchy
- Task List Import/Export: provide a generic import/export API
- Task Schema: make AbstractTask final, change query interface to require Task Data, provide extended task schema with a default attribute mapping

buttons in the message section of nanoHUB
In the messages page of nanoHUB, it would be definitely more practical to have two buttons: – send to trash – send to archive
instead of having a menu "With Selected…".
The buttons would speed up the management of the messages in my opinion.
I hope this helps,

Suburban Chicago Suite Hotel Minutes from Woodfield Mall
Woodfield Mall is home to about 300 stores and restaurants. It's one of the country's 10 largest malls, occupying more than two million square feet of retail space in suburban Schaumburg, just outside of Chicago. The mall's anchor attractions include Macy's and JCPenney, but it also features fashion-forward boutiques such as Coach and Tumi. Just five minutes away, Comfort Suites Schaumburg puts its guests in perfect position for a suburban shopping escape.
The all-suite hotel houses comfortable suites, each with a 32-inch TV, a mini fridge, and a wet bar. An indoor heated pool idles in a sunshine-filled room with an adjacent hot tub. Each morning, you can pay a visit to the hot breakfast buffet, which has a make-your-own-waffle station.
If you choose the romance package, you'll stay in a deluxe suite or Jacuzzi suite and enjoy a heart-shaped pizza, wine, and rose petals. There's also a family-friendly deal option, which includes four passes to the nearby Legoland Discovery Center and a gift card for pizza at Lou Malnati's.
Schaumburg, Illinois: Family-Friendly Northwestern Suburb Home to Woodfield Mall and Nature Preserve
Schaumburg is conveniently close to Chicago—it's 28 miles northwest of downtown and minutes from the intersection of I-90 and I-290—but it still has its own identity and a variety of family-friendly attractions. Schaumburg is best known as the home of Woodfield Mall, the nation's ninth-largest shopping center. Among roughly 300 stores and restaurants, Woodfield's anchor attractions include an Apple Store, Macy's, and Nordstrom. It also features fashion-forward boutiques such as Coach and Tumi.
Just around the corner, The Streets of Woodfield offers an outdoor, pedestrian-friendly experience with a movie theater, coffee shops, clothing stores, and the Legoland Discovery Center. Here, kids can tour an interactive Lego "factory," catch a 3-D flick, and build their own Lego creations such as miniature cars that can be put to the test on a racetrack. Come evening, journey back to the Middle Ages at Medieval Times, a restaurant that puts on a nightly show—a jousting tournament featuring horseback-riding knights and falconry demonstrations.
Experience the outdoors at the Ned Brown Forest Preserve—popularly known as Busse Woods—a 3,700-acre expanse on the border of Schaumburg and Elk Grove Village. Bikers and joggers and take advantage of an 8-mile paved loop as fishers post up around Busse Lake in pursuit of channel catfish, largemouth bass, and northern pike. Be sure to swing by the elk pasture, where the preserve's resident herd of elk lives.

Lee, 20, was the subject of a post I penned 10 days ago in which I pointed out he was having a great season even if some of his numbers looked a little below-average.
Lee is the second first-round pitcher to be promoted to Double-A this season, as Chris Reed was promoted in early June.
The Dodgers have rarely been afraid to be aggressive with their pitching prospects, so this isn't much of a surprise. However, the fact that Lee is 20 and will pitch in Double-A is sure to raise some eyebrows.
Chad Billingsley, Scott Elbert, Clayton Kershaw and Greg Miller all pitched in Double-A at age 20. Edwin Jackson one-upped the four of them by pitching with the Jacksonville Suns (the Dodgers' affiliate at the time) at age 19.
Aside from Miller, all the other pitchers have made it to the majors and had success (some more than others).
With Lee and Reed being promoted, the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes' pitching rotation has been stripped of their two best pitchers. Ryan O'Sullivan was assigned to Rancho earlier today from Great Lakes to presumably take Lee's spot. They also have Garrett Gould and Angel Sanchez. And Jarret Martin could be promoted at any time.
The impact on the Lookouts is also apparent.
To say there's a pitching logjam in Chattanooga would be an understatement. The Lookouts now have seven who can start: Lee, Matt Magill, Ethan Martin, Aaron Miller, Reed, Allen Webster and Chris Withrow (when he comes back from the disabled list).
It remains to be seen what the Lookouts will do. Magill has thrown poorly of late, Martin has been mediocre, Miller has been decent but isn't throwing a lot of innings, Reed is still getting acclimated to the league, Webster seems to have finally figured it out and Withrow struggled before going on the DL.
I like how aggressive the Dodgers are with their minor-league pitchers, so I'm looking forward to seeing how he handles advanced hitting in perhaps the most talented level of the Minor Leagues. Before the end of the season, he'll work out of the bullpen to limit his innings.
But no matter what happens the rest of this season, Lee will begin in Double-A in 2013.

IT Management Slideshow: IT Temp Work Skyrockets
CIOs and other senior managers are turning to contract and temporary hires more than ever now in light of continuing economic challenges. In fact, the pace of hiring temp workers is growing three times faster than during the last recovery, according to analysis of Bureau of Labor Statistics by tech jobs site Dice.com, which augmented the analysis with data from its own site. The findings demonstrate that full-time IT jobs are also on the rebound. Indeed, the unemployment rate for tech professionals (4.3 percent) is far lower than the overall national average (9.6 percent). The wealth of temporary and contractual IT work being created demonstrates the growing emphasis on flexibility among CIOs, who want to make sure that enough talent is available to get the job done while keeping their options open with respect to staffing levels. Hiring a full-time worker, after all, is a long-term commitment that often requires the provision of costly benefits. A contractual/temp "hired gun" requires no benefits and can be brought on board for a single, demanding IT project.

It is possible that the main title of the report WAS Related Disorders is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
The WAS-related disorders are a spectrum of conditions affecting the immune system that are caused by mutations in the WAS gene. These disorders include Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, X-linked thrombocytopenia and X-linked congenital neutropenia. The WAS gene abnormality results in a deficiency in the WASP protein that leads to a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia). WAS-related disorders usually present in infancy and are characterized by bloody diarrhea, recurrent infections, scaling, itchy, skin rashes (eczema), and the appearance of small purple spots on the skin (petechia). The development of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) and intracranial bleeding are possible early, life-threatening complications. Later potential complications include destruction of red blood cells (hemolytic anemia), arthritis, vasculitis and kidney and liver damage. Affected individuals have an increased risk of developing lymphomas, especially after exposure to Epstein-Barr virus. WAS-related disorders are extremely variable, even in individuals in the same family.

Will choice of Drupal for Web content management bring more flexibility, or more confusion?
WhiteHouse.gov has the same look and feel it did before, so a casual visitor probably won't notice much different. The blogosphere has pointed out several interesting aspects of this choice of technology though.
Tim O'Reilly, head of O'Reilly Media, praised the White House for its choice of open-source technologies, suggesting that the government could save money by going with open-source. He notes that the implementation is in turn running on a Red Hat Linux system with Apache, MySQL and and the Apache Solr search software.
The move also speaks well of the White House's intent of incorporating more social media in its communications, O'Reilly said, noting that the Drupal community has developed a large number of modules devoted to supporting commenting and other interactive features. Such functionality seemed to be of value to the White House: "We now have a technology platform to get more and more voices on the site," White House new media director Macon Phillips told the Associated Press.
"General Dynamics Information Technology …, the Virginia-based government contractor who had executed the Bush-era White House CMS contract, was tasked by the Obama Administration with finding a more flexible alternative," noted blog author Nancy Scola, in an entry in the TechPresident blog."The ideal new platform would be one where dynamic features like question-and-answer forums, live video streaming, and collaborative tools could work more fluidly together with the site's infrastructure,"
According to Scola, General Dynamics was supported by Drupal consultants Phase2, search engine optimization consulting firm Alledia, IT infrastructure firm Terremark and Internet distributed hosted firm Akamai.
David Lantner, editor of the Clear Type Press blog noted that Drupal will give the White House a good start in annotating its data in a machine-readable way, if the managers choose to do so. Drupal's use of a Resource Description Framework "enables authors to add semantic metadata … to their markup using attributes that are both machine-readable and human-friendly," Lantner writes. When formatted by RDF, data can then be parsed by other computer programs in a predictable fashion.
A quick look at the source code of the site finds that the Web pages are formatted to the XHTML-RDFA-1 document type, though no data appears to be formatted in the RDF format yet. (XHTML is an HTML Web page markup language that complies to the Extensible Markup Language standard; RDFA is a version of RDF formatted for HTML).
It should be noted not everyone sees the move to Drupal as a good one. Slate contributor Chris Wilson highlighted some of Drupal's more challenging attributes: That it is difficult to deploy and to upgrade, and that its code base is disorganized.
"I can't help but think the new software represents the triumph of hope over experience," Wilson writes. "Drupal looks great in theory: It's a powerful way to govern a Web site that is born out of the collective efforts of the community. In practice, it tends to be a bit of a mess."
The White House site is not the first site to use Drupal, according to a blog entry from Alledia's Steve Burge. Recovery.gov and the New York Senate also use the CMS.

Shame on you for referencing the Slate article that is completely incorrect on every point. Having built many content management systems myself through the years and having used many commercial and OSS systems, I've found Drupal to be just about the best in terms of structure, upgradability and power per line of code. You see, unlike so many others, practically everything can be extended using APIs and the theming layer rather than hacking away at either the core system files or plugin files, making upgrading a piece of cake.
Recovery.gov moved from Drupal to Microsoft Sharepoint with last month's relaunch, a strange choice given the federal government's stated intention to use open source where feasible. My guess is that the move was related to the capabilities and partnerships of the contractor responsible for the technical implementation. Lead contractor Smartronix is Microsoft Gold Certified Partner so obviously had an interest in using the Microsoft platform rather than an open-source option.

Energy management bypass for VFDs
The P-Series of variable frequency drives by Cerus have an energy management bypass option for HVAC systems.
Cerus Industrial Inc. has enhanced its P-Series line of variable frequency drives (VFDs) with an energy management bypass (EMB) option. The option assures uninterruptible operation of customers' HVAC systems, even if the drive is taken out of the loop, including reprogramming or maintenance operations. With integrated real-time ANSI grade power metering and BACnet communications, the P-Series accurately measures consumption in both VFD and bypass mode to +/-1%. The P-Series also provides all the advanced motor protection in bypass mode that would typically only be available through the VFD. With integrated metering and programmable option-setting via an external keypad, the series offers a lower cost and safer-to-use solution to the measurement and verification requirements for establishing U.S. Green Building Council LEED certification. Other bypass solutions require external meters and modifications to be made by opening the panel, exposing high-voltage connectors.

Catherine Provencher : We need to do more to teach financial literacy in NH
April 22. 2014 6:51PM
"Baseball is ninety percent mental and the other half is physical," is one of the many sayings attributed to baseball great Yogi Berra. Though April does mark the start of the baseball season, it also is the month during which we promote the need for the kind of education that might have helped Yogi improve on his ability to calculate percentages.
April is designated as National Financial Literacy Month, and it is recognized around the United States as a time for students, parents and educators to focus on teaching young people personal financial basics — such as interest rate percentages and managing spending and saving — that will empower them to make smart financial decisions throughout their lives.
The state of financial literacy across America remains bleak, with comprehension of basic financial principles at alarmingly low rates. For example, recent Michigan Retirement Research Center research shows that only 27 percent of young adults understand basic financial concepts such as interest rates and inflation.
The bottom line? People with inadequate education and low levels of financial literacy tend to be less financially secure, less able to make sound financial decisions, and less prepared to take care of personal and family responsibilities.
We are fortunate in our state because nearly nine in 10 New Hampshire adults agree that more time should be spent in schools teaching personal financial concepts, according to the University of New Hampshire Survey Center and New Hampshire Jump$tart Coalition. However, only three of our state's public high schools currently teach personal finance as required coursework. This month, Gov. Maggie Maggie Hassan is recognizing those three schools for going above and beyond in their commitment.
In spite of these challenges, we are making progress. According to a new national capability survey, the financial literacy of New Hampshire residents has improved in recent years and, while lower than we'd like, it is higher than the national average. It is by working together — schools, businesses, nonprofits and at home — that we will continue this momentum.
An example of such collaboration can be seen in the work of the N.H. Jump$tart Coalition, which is supported enthusiastically by the state Treasurer's office and Fidelity Investments. To teach more students the concepts of personal finance, Jump$tart and Fidelity volunteers brought the "I Can Save" program to elementary school children. Through interactive lessons about saving, spending and sharing, we are encouraging students to begin a savings habit early in life.
Employee volunteers also are working with high schools in the state to present Financial Fitness Fairs to students during Financial Literacy Month and to offer the Smart Market program during the year in partnership with the New Hampshire Union Leader.
These programs enable our youth to better understand the relevancy of personal finance and help prepare them for economic success. Just as Fidelity aspires to make its financial expertise broadly accessible and effective in helping people live the lives they want, the company and employees take a similar approach in giving back to communities across the United States through volunteer programs such as these. Many employee volunteers, such as Chase Martell from Hooksett, say helping students by sharing their knowledge and experience mirrors similar approaches they use with customers every day. And the kids love what they're learning.
"We have family discussions about money even after the program is over," said one student.
"The ongoing support Fidelity has given to Jump$tart has clearly impacted my ability to teach my Personal Finance class in a very positive way," said Krista Scarlett, a teacher at Goffstown High School.
This effort is very important to us because it demonstrates how working together with compassion and a deep sense of responsibility to the community can help our students make wise decisions for themselves and their futures. We encourage students and teachers to take advantage of all opportunities to advance financial literacy among young people. And as parents we also have a responsibility to talk with our sons and daughters about money. After that, we can go watch the baseball game.
Catherine Provencher served as New Hampshire Treasurer from 2007 until March 28, when she began her new role as vice chancellor for financial affairs and treasurer of the University System of New Hampshire. William Dwyer is commissioner of the New Hampshire Treasury. Joe Murray oversees government and community relations for Fidelity Investments' New Hampshire region, based in Merrimack.

Having spent two and a half years following the euro zone debt crisis, one economist has decided to throw in the towel because he says EU leaders have failed to prevent Italy from losing access to the funding markets.
EU governments have "failed to stabilize every challenge they have been given so far in the crisis," wrote Carl Weinberg the founder of High Frequency Economics on Tuesday as European finance ministers met in Brussels.
"What Eurolandneeds is a king to knock together heads of all the princes of all the provinces, or rather nation states, to do the right thing for the kingdom. No King is apparent, so no hope of an orderly end to this mess is likely," Weinberg said.
According to him, the euro zone's third-largest economy's fate is now in the hands of speculators after 10-year Italian bond yieldsrose to 6.11 percent on Monday. "This is severely disappointing for a zone whose aggregate finances are not in bad shape at all," Weinberg said.
"The problem is the inability of the political systems to redistribute financial resources and fiscal acumen" among euro zone nations, Weinberg wrote, adding he can no longer believe the political status quo will ever allow for a lasting solution to the crisis facing Europe.
As EU finance ministers discuss speeding up financial support for Spain's banks, Weinberg claims banks across the euro zone remain in big trouble.
"All the banks in Greece, pretty much, are insolvent."
"Italy's banks have problems too as Monti dei Paschi di Sienna's call for help last week demonstrated. Italian banks are next to come under the gun. Yet Euroland funds to support Italy have yet to be raised," said Weinberg, who is worried that a lack of transparency by the European Banking Associationmeans no one knows which banks are sound.
"We are ready to throw in the towel. No one can believe that no bank in Euroland will fail."

Allen Lessels on Motor Sports: With Chase spots on the line, drivers are hungryBy ALLEN LESSELS
New Hampshire Union Leader
July 07. 2014 10:48PM
LOUDON -- Here they come.
NASCAR's Sprint Cup stars wrapped up their rain-delayed Fourth of July weekend stay in Daytona with a rain-shortened and topsy-turvy Coke Zero 400 on Sunday. Next stop: Loudon.
Fans in campers started checking in to New Hampshire Motor Speedway's camping areas over the weekend, vendors are setting up shop at the track now, and the colorful Sprint Cup team haulers will be wheeling in for Thursday night's FanFest that helps kick off Sprint Cup weekend.
Let's start from the back end of the weekend.
The Camping World RV Sales 301 is set or Sunday at 1 p.m. — the Speedway announced on Monday that New England Patriot Julian Edelman will drive the pace car to start the race — offering drivers one more in a dwindling number of chances to secure a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup Championship.
Eighteen races are down in the Cup season, and eight remain before the Chase begins at Chicagoland Speedway on Sept 14. (Race No. 2 is back at NHMS on Sept. 21.)
The rules have changed for Chase qualifying. This year, there are 16 slots available, and the top priority for securing spots is winning races. Aric Almirola survived a couple of crashes that took out several top contenders and won the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona on Sunday in the No. 43 Ford of Richard Petty Motorsports to become the 11th different Cup winner this year.
Good for him to collect his first Cup win and the first for the famous No. 43 since 1999.
Not so good for the rest of the field. Almirola was 23rd in points going into Daytona and likely grabbed one of the Cup spots.
It's likely because if there are more than 16 different winners during the season, the race for spots will come down to points, too.
What probably will happen is that there will not be 16 winners, every driver with a win will get in, and there will be a few spots open for drivers to get in on points.
Bottom line: There is a bunch of drivers who will be looking for a win on Sunday to nail down a spot in the Chase.
The new format ups the ante on each race, especially a race that also appears later in the season on the Chase schedule.
"It's more important," said Jeff Gordon when he was at NHMS practicing with his Hendrick Motorsports teammates last month. "Way more important. I mean, it's a win. It's a win, and it's in the Chase. To me, every racetrack, especially if it's in the Chase, is far more important. You come here, you perform well. Whether it's a win to get you your second or third win, or whether it's a win to get you into the Chase. The fact that if you ran well here, it bodes well for you for when the Chase starts."
Gordon (one win) and Hendrick teammates Dale Earnhardt Jr. (two wins) and Jimmie Johnson (three wins) lead the point standings coming into this weekend and are locks for the Chase.
If the Chase started this weekend, Matt Kenseth (fourth in points), Ryan Newman (eighth), Paul Menard (10th), Clint Bowyer (12th) and rookie Austin Dillon (13th ) all would make the Chase.
But none of those five drivers has a win at the moment. Greg Biffle, Brian Vickers, Kyle Larson and Kasey Kahne don't have wins, either, and all are within 12 points of Dillon in the standings.
Should make for an exciting Sunday.

SUNDAY'S race concludes a busy weekend schedule.
Thursday's free FanFest event gets things going. It runs from 5:30 to 10 p.m. outside the tunnel that goes into the track and includes the Cup hauler parade, an autograph session with K&N Pro Series East drivers and a Jimmy Lehoux concert at 8 p.m.
Friday is Oxford Casino Pole Day and features the new knockout-elimination style Sprint Cup qualifying at 4:35, as well as a new Whelen All-Star Modified Shootout along with the K&N Pro Series East race at 6 p.m.
The final Sprint Cup series practice is 11:30 a.m. to 12:25 p.m. on Saturday, to be followed by the Whelen Modified Tour Sunoco 100 at 1 p.m. and the Nationwide Series Sta-Green 200 at 3:30.

What kind of evidence is acceptable concerning Plato? His writings? How do we know they're not forgeries? How do we know Plato wasn't a pen name?
We have letters from Paul, Jude, James, Peter, etc. which refer to Jesus. We have first-second second century,extant letters from Iraneus, Clement which refer to Jesus.
I think it serves no purpose and, probably, plays into the hands of theists whenever one argues whether Jesus was historical. I think it's safe to assume there was a preacher in the Jerusalem area, at the time of the Roman occupation, that stirred up authorities and the general populace.
The discussion should focus on whether or not this preacher was what his followers claimed him to be.
Quote from: learnin on October 24, 2012, 11:29:44 AMWhat kind of evidence is acceptable concerning Plato? His writings? How do we know they're not forgeries? How do we know Plato wasn't a pen name?QuoteWe have letters from Paul, Jude, James, Peter, etc. which refer to Jesus. We have first-second second century,extant letters from Iraneus, Clement which refer to Jesus.See what you did there?
Jesus is historical. However, "historical" doesn't always equate to actuality. I am asking for empirical evidence. Scribblings on paper, or on a tomb (that anyone could have written) is not empirical evidence.
Yes. Essentially, I'm saying we have as much evidence about a historical Jesus as we do about any other human who, supposedly, walked the earth thousands of years ago...I know what you're asking for but I don't think such evidence exists for any person who lived centuries ago. We have to trust that there weren't forgeries and conspiracies involved no matter which historical person we wish to consider. It's just my opinion.
No, what you did was contradict yourself. You mention in the first about how valid writing by Plato would be then contradicted that by pointing out writings by varying people who wrote about Jesus.
And again: I am not asking for "historical" evidence but "empirical" evidence. They are not synonyms.
You say you understand but keep mentioning "historical". If you don't think there is empirical evidence (as you relunctantly seem to say) then just say that.
learnin,Did I say you said "valid"? No. You, yourself, did not have to be there for there to be "empirical" evidence. My OP outlines what I consider, by definition, what is constituted as "empirical evidence". We know, for a fact, based on varying evidence not only by people of the time in said location but in other surrounding areas that certain people back then existed. There is "empirical" evidence.You keep bringing up "historical" as if I didn't state in the OP not to bring it up.If you believe there is no "empirical" evidence, then say that. Stop bringing up "historical" since I specifically asked for people not to do it.-Nam
The only argument that ever really swayed me with the whole historical Jesus thing was something I read a while back by Christopher Hitchens (I think he's the one who wrote it. Maybe it was Ehrman, I don't remember). It said that there were things written in the bible about Jesus that your normal, average person looking out for the messiah would not have expected of the messiah they thought was coming. For example, the Jews believed Jesus was going to be a great leader, and the guy they portrayed in the bible was just some poor shmuck. Why wouldn't they have made him a great leader if they were just making it all up? One reason might be because a real guy existed that was dirt poor. Stuff like that lead them to think it couldn't ALL be made up. Another one had to do with his birthplace. Same sort of thing where they thought the messiah was going to come from one place, and the 'real' Jesus didn't come from there, so they had to create that census bullshit to get Jesus to be 'from' where he was supposed to be from. Again, I know of zero empirical evidence.
Not to go off topic here, but could someone explain to me the time period of when the NT was written? How much of a time period after OT, or "jesus".Then I may add to this topic.
But the bible aka the NT wasn't written until 328CE
Quote from: bertatberts on October 26, 2012, 04:03:43 AMBut the bible aka the NT wasn't written until 328CEThe NT as we know it today may not have been formally compiled until the 4th century, but the individual texts certainly existed long before that. We have texts of the gospels and epistles dating to the second century (possibly even fragments from the late first) and the documents were being referenced and quoted by second-century figures like Irenaeus, Tertullian, Marcion, etc. So I don't think it's correct to suggest that the books could have been written in the 4th century...
However it wasn't until 90ce that the Council of Jamnia selected books to be included in the OT/Hebrew bible,[2] so are they fiction or are they fact. We can only go where the actual evidence takes us.As for the NT, around about the same time some earlier and some later, we have stories that the Gospels were written. But the bible aka the NT wasn't written until 328CE

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department and one of the largest hospitality companies in the world have settled allegations that the firm discriminated in employment by requiring non-U.S. citizens to produce specific documents issued by the Department of Homeland Security.
The government says Centerplate Inc. of Spartanburg, S.C., did not make similar requests of U.S. citizens and that the different treatment went on for at least three years.
Centerplate provides food service to more than 250 stadiums, convention centers and entertainment venues around the nation and has over 10,000 employees.
Centerplate will pay $250,000 in civil penalties, the third-highest amount paid since the Immigration and Nationality Act's anti-discrimination provision became law in 1986. Centerplate will undergo Justice Department training and will fully compensate victims who lost wages as a result of Centerplate's practices.

Indy Battens Down hatches For Super Bowl Security
Indianapolis is battening down the hatches to protect Super Bowl fans descending on the city for the Feb. 5 game.
Indianapolis Power & Light has spent nearly $200,000 to replace 150 manhole covers in the Super Bowl village and in other high-traffic areas after a series of underground explosions last year turned the covers into dangerous projectiles that damaged cars.
The new covers can be locked for security reasons and lift a couple inches off the ground in case of an explosion before falling back into place. Utility officials say that's enough to vent gas without feeding in oxygen that could make an explosion bigger.
The city also plans to sweep Lucas Oil Stadium for nuclear threats and will have up to 1,000 city police officers on hand.

It's sad that you ranked halfway across the map from the actual fighting while watching two Norbog's do something they shouldn't but you deserve it nonetheless.
Thanks for all the laughs, comfortably uncomfortable moments, and situations that escalate much more quickly than we thought they would. I'm sorry I'm not a girl but that doesn't keep you from hitting on me anyway.
Thanks for that cream for that thing.
Glad to have met you and honored to be one of your "boys".

Mick Foley Writes a Blog Post to WWE, Thanks Them for Last Night's RAW and More
– Mick Foley posted the following on his Facebook page regarding Monday's RAW, Batista's heel turn and WrestleMania XXX:
"Dear WWE,
Thank you.
If you knew from the begginning what a super hot heel a win at the Royal Rumble would make Dave Batista, then you were smarter than all of us.
If you didn't know, and were then forced to adap to a unique set of cirumstances that the backlash from the Rumble provided, then you adapted very well.
With one outstanding Raw, you've got me, and millions of fans around the world excited about the biggest showcase in our business, and I'm thrilled to be going.
When I expressed concern after the Rumble, you told me not to judge a book by its cover. I came darn close to just putting that book back on the shelf, but it now looks like the final few chapters are going to turn into a captivating page-turner.
Onn behalf of RAINN, which saw a HUGE jump in #WrestlemaniaDreamVacation raffle entries after last night's Raw, thank you for the difference you are allowing them to make in the lives of thousands of people through this raffle – 100% of which goes to RAINN, the largest ant-sexual assault group in the US. Even as I was voicing my displeasure with some of the shows, you were sending me HOF tickets, allowing WWE Superstars and Divas to participate, and asking how you could help to make my raffle better.
Thanks also for allowing me to speak my mind without any private or public reprimand. Yes, I'll admit that attending the Knicks game in my pajamas, while officially representing the company was a form of protest. Maybe not as blatant as smashing my TV, but a form of protest, nonetheless. But as my friend Brendon Burns, a brilliant comic from Australia, with an incredible mind for the wrestling business (who would love to write for you guys, by the way) put it – WWE's recent shows have actually helped create one of the most fascinating, influential characters we've seen in wrestling in years: the fans.
Newly excited fans can learn more about, and enter the #WrestlemaniaDReamVacationRaffle at http://www.rainn.org/wrestlemania-dream-vacation-raffle-2014

The Stoddards of Wheatfield are a giving family.
If someone is in need, Jennifer and Joel and their children Kyle, 7, and Zachary, 4, try to help out. It might be something as simple as taking flowers and homemade cards to Crestwood nursing home residents or buying a Tim Hortons gift card and leaving it at the drive-through window to pay for orders of strangers coming behind them.
"It's a good thing to do. You help your fellow man," said Jen. "That's just how we roll."
So, it wasn't really surprising when Kyle, after spotting a flyer his mom had brought home from her job at United Health Care advertising a youngster's fundraiser for the Food Bank of Buffalo, decided he wanted to do something similar.
Kyle's Guarding Warriors fundraiser/basket auction will be held from 5 to 9 p.m. Dec. 21 at the Wheatfield Community Center on the Town Hall campus, 2800 Church Road.
With help from his mom, Kyle decided on two charities his fundraiser will benefit. Cornerstone Manor Women's and Children's Shelter in Buffalo was selected because one of Kyle's grandmothers was a single mom.
Kyle will be collecting single serve snacks, coloring books, character towels and washcloths for Cornerstone.
Disabled Veterans was chosen in honor of Jen's brother, William Severance of Wheatfield, a sergeant with the Army National Guard out of the Connecticut Street Armory in Buffalo. Last year, when Uncle Bill was deployed overseas, Kyle helped collect snack items to send for him to share with his unit.
Kyle will help the Disabled Veterans by collecting toys for veterans' children at Christmas.
He chose Kyle's Guiding Warriors for his logo. Mom had suggested Kyle's Hope, but he wanted something more "manly" and "catchy."
Kyle's parents and extended family are pitching in to help his event succeed and taking his flyers to their offices. (Dad is a sales rep for Juicy Vapor, an electronic cigarette business.)
Kyle's Guarding Warriors already has collected a number of donated baskets for the auction, plus a large ticket item - a football autographed by Jim Kelly. Kyle commented on his blog that, "I guess the guy who signed it is a famous player."
In addition to the basket auction, the Dec. 21 event will feature games and crafts for kids, pizza, popcorn, baked goods, and even chair massages. Admission is a donation to Kyle's Guiding Warriors causes, for which donors will receive a sheet of basket raffle tickets. Additional tickets will be available.
Kyle is a second-grader at Errick Road Elementary School, where he works hard to get good grades. He's hoping to get fellow students and teachers involved in his cause as well.
He has taken karate lessons for 21/2 years at Yi-Dan Cha Gi Martial Arts Center and has already earned his academic and community service patches. He plays soccer and baseball.
"He's a good kid all the way around," his mom says.
In his Nov. 25 blog, Kyle asked, "With Thanksgiving almost here, what are you Thankful for. I am thankful for my house, my pets, my brother, my Mom and Dad, Grandma and Pappa, my cousins my Aunts and Uncles and thankful to be me.
"We talked about strong words today in school, I am greatful to be me. I am also greatful for icecream. I am greatful to have toys because some kids don't have any. I am greatful to have food and water because some people don't have that."
When he grows up, Kyle wants to be a scientist and "make potions." Why? Why else - "to help people."
For more information or to make a donation of a basket, a prize or baked goods to Kyle's event, email Jen Stoddard at [email protected]. Follow Kyle's blog for regular updates on his progress at http://kylesguardingwarriors.weebly.com.
