Fine Arts Camp Experience- International (acronym FACE-IN) is the name of a new exchange program organized by non-profit organization Czech Music Camp for Youth. The aim of this project is create links between Czech and American families who are interested in hosting a Czech or Slovak student coming to the United States to experience one session at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp in Michigan or sending their son or daughter to the Czech Republic to get the international experience at the Fine Arts Camps Europe, Czech Republic including the Czech host family experience.
We offer American students international experience at the Fine Arts Camps Europe / Czech Music Camp for Youth in Horni Jeleni, Czech Republic. This camp is modelled after Blue Lake, but it maintains family atmosphere because it is much smaller. The maximum capacity of one camp session is about 120 campers. It accepts students of ages 10 - 19.
The exchange program includes 17 nights (10 or 6 nights at the Fine Arts Camps Europe / Czech Music Camp for Youth in Horni Jeleni, Czech Republic, 6 or 10 nights in the Czech/Slovak host family and 1 overnight flight to the Czech Republic). The U.S. / Canadian student covers the airfare to the Czech Republic, exchange program fee, and travel insurance. No visa is necessary, only a valid U.S. / Canadian passport. After the camp you will stay at the Czech/Slovak host family where you can expect free room and full board, transfer from/to the airport in Prague (PRG), Vienna (VIE), Munich (MUC) or Berlin - Tegel (TXL). Prague airport is the closest airport to the camp (only 80 miles). Sightseeing trips and entrance fees will be covered by the Czech host family.
NEW for 2015: We offer direct non-stop flights from from Chicago to Berlin - Tegel (TXL) with or from Chicago (ORD) to Vienna (VIE) with Austrian Airlines or from Chicago (ORD) to Munich (MUC) with Lufthansa. There is no need to change flights at busy US or European airports. The host family or our team will pick you up and drop you off at these airports in Central Europe.
NEW for 2016: Session I students (July 20-30) will get 11 days at the camp including free tour of the castle in Nove Hrady followed by mid-session concert on Sunday July 24 at 2:30 pm. We offer the 25-day stay for students who wish to spend both sessions at the Czech Music Camp for Youth. Prague has a direct flight connection with New York, JFK (Delta) and Toronto, Pearson (Air Canada Rouge, AirTransat). If you want to change your flight we recommend doing so at one of these airports and flying directly to Prague
The U.S. family interested in hosting a Czech / Slovak student agrees to cover room and full board for 5 days after or before the camp, transfer from/to the airport in Chicago (ORD), Detroit (DTW), Muskegon (MKG) or Grand Rapids (GRR), sightseeing trips and entrance fees for the Czech/Slovak student. The Czech/Slovak student covers the airfare, exchange program fee and travel insurance.
The air travel will be organized by Czech Music Camp for Youth, non-profit organization. The payment for airfare and travel insurance will be made to the Czech Music Camp for Youth, non-profit organization. The Paypal transfer fees of 4% will be covered by the U.S. applicant.
Czech Music Camp for Youth will provide all necessary information service for the exchange.

Frequently asked questions
Do we need to do both parts of the program (hosting a European student and attending camp in Europe)?
No. You can decide only for one part of the program, for example hosting. However, it would be nice when you decide to host a Czech / Slovak student age group 10 – 19 that your family has at least one family member of the same age group.
What is the application deadline?
We would like to have all FACE-IN applications by March 31 as the tickets prices go up before the summer season. The earlier you apply, the better airfare you get plus some New Year discount or First Moment discounts for applications received during December or January.
What if I want to travel to Europe with my family? Can I still be a part of the camp experience?
Of course you can. You won't be a part of the exchange program but you can still participate at the Fine Arts Camps Europe in Horni Jeleni, Czech Republic on your own. You can visit our website www.chtm.cz and fill in the international camp application. We can assist your family members to find accommodation in the area while you enjoy the camp fun. Your folks can visit you every evening during evening concerts.
Is the Czech Republic safe?
It is a democratic country a part of former Czechoslovakia. It is a member of the European Union and NATO part former. It is located in the heart of Europe between Germany, Austria, Poland and Slovakia. The country has strong historical and cultural heritage. Perhaps you know Czech composers Smetana or Dvorak. Our campsite is situated only 20 miles from Smetana's birthplace, Litomyšl. The Litomyšl castle is on the UNESCO heritage list.
What do you do in case of health problems?
Fine Arts Camps Europe has a camp nurse who provides all basic treatments free of charge. The emergency care center is 20 miles away. A participant must have a travel insurance to participate in the exchange program. However, most of medical facilities in the Czech Republic require payment in cash for by card for the treatment. You will receive a bill which will be covered by your insurance company when you return. We recommend to bring at least 150 USD in cash that you won't need to exchange. This money will be stored in the camp bank while at the camp. You will have it for use only in case of some medical treatment and you will withdraw it on the last day of the camp.
Do I need to exchange money?
Czech Koruna is the national currency in the Czech Republic. You will need to exchange money US dollars in the Czech Republic. If you stay in a Slovakian host family, you will need to exchange Euro.
Do you accept cards?
No, unfortunately we don't accept cards at the camp so you will need to bring some cash pocket money but you can pay for the camp by card through Paypal. We also accept bank wire transfers (SWIFT). The bank fees are covered by the participant (OUR)
Who is going to accompany my child during the air travel?
If your child is 12 yrs and younger, it can be accompanied during air travel. Some fee for this service is required. It is charged per segment of the flight. I recommend taking a direct flight from U.S. / Canada to Prague, Vienna or Munich where Fine Arts Camps Europe staff can arrange for airport pick up by a Czech host family.
FACE-IN application is available in the Download section. For more information and further questions about the exchange program please contact our e-mail email@example.com

But I didn't know I would miss my dad so fiercely in a place in which I thought he was more removed. I can walk into my parent's house and look at his urn, see his desk and it's just there. I see him in photos and I smile and feel a little empty. But for some reason, this morning crushed me.
I called my friend who is incredibly attuned to these things and who totally saw it coming. "Why am I crying at school?" Because I am starting something without him. He was so proud of me for getting this job. He spent many hours (as teacher dads often do) cutting lamination, building mailboxes, labeling things....he was there. He won't be coming in to read Eve Bunting's The Red Balloon to my students or joining me for lunch every once in a while.
If there is one thing I can tell you about grief, it is that it comes when you least expect it.

Topic: Allow certain Users groups to view "secret" media?
Hi guys
first and foremost I apologize if i'm in the wrong section...
I'm using cutenews for my company's website and was wondering if there was some possible way to enable a specific set of users to view a specific set of media?
i.e. - we are a magazine company and our digital issues are uploaded online for users to view for free, but we want to require users to be at least logged in (maybe as a "subscribers" category or something) in order to view issues of the mag.
anybody know if this is possible and if so, the best way to go about doing it?

Emission profile variability in hot star winds
A pseudo–3D method based on radiation hydrodynamics simulations
N&S Sterrenkunde Universiteit Utrecht, Princetonplein 5, 3584 CC Utrecht, The Netherlands
2 Bartol Research Institute of the University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716, USA e-mail: email@example.com
Corresponding author: L. Dessart, firstname.lastname@example.com
Accepted: 18 December 2001
We present theoretical calculations of emission line profile variability based on hot star wind structure calculated numerically using radiation hydrodynamics simulations. A principal goal is to examine how well short-time-scale variations observed in wind emission lines can be modelled by wind structure arising from small-scale instabilities intrinsic to the line-driving of these winds. The simulations here use a new implementation of the Smooth Source Function formalism for line-driving within a one-dimensional (1D) operation of the standard hydrodynamics code ZEUS–2D. As in previous wind instability simulations, the restriction to 1D is necessitated by the computational costs of non–local integrations needed for the line-driving force; but we find that naive application of such simulations within an explicit assumption of spherically symmetric structure leads to an unobserved strong concentration of profile variability toward the line wings. We thus introduce a new "patch method" for mimicking a full 3D wind structure by collecting random sequences of 1D simulations to represent the structure evolution along radial rays that extend over a selectable patch-size of solid angle. We provide illustrative results for a selection of patch sizes applied to a simulation with standard assumptions that govern the details of instability-generated wind structure, and show in particular that a typical model with a patch size of about can qualitatively reproduce the fundamental properties of observed profile variations. We conclude with a discussion of prospects for extending the simulation method to optically thick winds of Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars, and for thereby applying our "patch method" to dynamical modelling of the extensive variability observed in wind emission lines from these WR stars.

Maintenance Areas
Modular drawer storage cabinets are the ultimate in high performance, high density, manual storage. Modular drawer storage cabinets provide very efficient utilization of your valuable floor space. The hundreds of cabinet, drawer and divider combinations allow you to design the right storage system for your needs. Modular drawer storage cabinets are very flexible and allow you to modify your system as your needs change
You can place modular drawers in new shelving or in existing shelving, creating organizational storage where only a couple of flat shelves existed before. You will be able to store boxes on the shelves above your drawers and small parts in your modular drawers. Ergonomically, you can install these drawers at working height if they will contain things that workers use all the time, eliminating bending and stretching. By adding modular drawers to your shelving, you recuperate up to 70% of floor space vs. shelving only.
The SupplyPro cabinet gives technicians fast and easy access to certain items necessary to their work, such as specialized tools, everyday parts, replacement parts, and much more. These tasks can be carried out by the user without having to ask someone else for access.
Use standard Mini-Racking and add our NC tool holders with sturdy PVC inserts. Your tools only touch the PVC which helps prevent corrosion. The tool rack can come with perforations to insert Taper, Straight, Sandvik Capto, HSK, KM and VDI tools. The extruded PVC component is also offered without perforations. With its original two-level design, the rack offers improved support and increased stability by preventing tools from falling out, even in an inclined position.
Reclaim that existing valuable overhead space by installing a custom designed free standing mezzanine designed and built to meet your specific needs. Mezzanines assemble quickly with the simplicity of "erector set" and are constructed to form rugged, high-load-bearing overhead levels. Heavy-duty columns provide rigid support, eliminating obstructing bracing and providing maximum flexibility of movement and utilization of the lower level. Accessories include railings, stairs, landings, swing gates, sliding gates, types of decking and more. The structure can be expanded to meet future requirements.
A catwalk two level storage system utilizes your existing shelving to support the floor in the aisle space between the shelving or racking. The second level shelving is built directly on top of the first level of shelving. Pallet drop zones, gates and stairways can be added to this system.
Wire partitioning is the most economical way of securing and protecting your products, equipment and personnel. Woven wire mesh partitions allow for full visibility and air circulation. Available with swing or sliding type doors with a wide variety of locks and lock accessories, service windows and optional ceiling. These are ideal for tool cribs, physical barriers around automated equipment, certified as DEA enclosures, and for storage for seldom used items in condominiums or apartments.
Open shelving – Open shelving uses X-back braces and ladder side braces to secure the shelving unit. The Spider® shelving system is the only one that allows you to alternate the use of shelves (medium parts) and steel decking (large parts) while reducing the number of posts needed by 25%! Our common post enables more storage space. There are a wide variety of accessories available to store any products. Easily adjustable compression clip shelving.
Closed shelving – Closed shelving uses sheet metal to enclose the sides and back of each unit. The Spider® shelving system is the only one that allows you to alternate the use of shelves (medium parts) and steel decking (large parts) while reducing the number of posts needed by 25%! Our common post enables more storage space. There are a wide variety of accessories available to store any products. Easily adjustable compression clip shelving.
Mini-Racking is designed for storing heavy and bulky parts. Its many dimensions, combined with a choice of decking, make it possible to have a custom configuration tailored to your own needs.

An explanation to everyone that has been following this. Blogspot went down for about a day and lost Pam's entire Day 3. Pam was devastated, as she had worked for several painstaking hours the night before in a medium that is new to her in order to share what, for her, has been the most profound experience of the trip so far. What she had written was beautiful and heartlfelt. Here is the best we could do to pick up the pieces and move on:
I'm feeling a bit confused this morning. It might be the time change - we entered the Eastern Time Zone just before Knoxville, TN - but even as we're about to turn up the Blue Ridge Parkway, heading in a different direction, I feel the direction of the trip changing. Not in a bad way, maybe it's even South to North - a different "feel" - just as good, but better.
So why the confusion?! Mike qualified it yesterday, in the car on the way to Knoxville he said, "I'm exhausted, but not physically. I feel emotionally exhausted." And well we should. We'd just heard about one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War - in Franklin, TN.
The Franklin Battle was considered to be the worst one of the Civil War, and pretty much the determining factor in the war's end, as well as one of it's greatest military blunders. Long story short. The Union and Confederate troops were trying to beat each other up to the state capital of Nashville, the Union to join forces with the rest of their troops who'd already taken the capital, the Confederacy to overtake and reclaim it as their own. But, spring flooding had washed out one of the two bridges and the Union army could not get their equipment across the remaining one, the narrow railroad bridge. Basically, there was a huge traffic jam, and an unplanned, disastrous battle was the result.
One of the worst battles was fought on the front lawn of the Carter House (pictured below). You can still see the trench dug by the Union army to the left of where Derek, our tour guide, stands.
As the Carter family emerged from their hiding place in the cellar below, their eyes met with the brutal devastation and loss of life - 57 bodies strewn across their front lawn, as well as a massacre across the entire area as far as the eye could see.
On the other side of town lived John and Carrie McGavock, owners of the Carnton Plantation. Shortly, before the battle, Carrie was asked by a chaplain friend if they could use the house as a hospital. She readily agreed and the house quickly filled to the brim. The family was relegated to the only room left in the house, assumed to have been the kitchen.
John and Carrie were not perfect, but what a sacrifice they made in turning their home into a hospital to nurse the barely living back to life. Carrie used everything from linens to tablecloths, even the bottom of her own dress, to bandage the wounds of the nearly 300 soldiers under her care. Consequently, she became known as, "The Good Samaritan of the South."
Pam under the tree in Carrie's garden
where overflow surgery was performed.
Mike standing on the porch where 4 dead generals
were laid in honor before burial.
The McGavocks also portioned out a large part of their own family cemetary to bury the approximately 1,500 soldiers who died there, and Carrie kept pristine records on those interred from that time until the time of her death at the age of 80
No one really knows what spirited Carrie on. Perhaps it was the death of 3 of her 5 children early on, perhaps simply the heart of compassion and kindness in an area of great need. Perhaps it was her own call from the Divine. Whatever the reason, the entire area bears a peace that transcends all human understanding for what happened there.
I'd often just thought of the Confederacy as stubborn, rebellious, and wrong, but as I walked through the house and grounds of the Carnton Plantation, and especially after reading the book which inspired this journey, the "Widow of the South" - I've gained a new appreciation for these farmers and landowners who were simply protecting their own. As our tour guide, Derek, so eloquently stated, "who was right or wrong in this did not matter. These were brave men who were willing to lay down their lives for what they believed in and for the survival of their families."
After the Civil War ended, Union soldiers received pensions and aid from the Federal government, but they also dealt with the usual war traumas, coupled with the weight of having fought their own, including sometimes their own families.
Confederate soldiers, on the other hand, had to depend on their own States for pension and aid. Their own post-war trauma included rebuilding their lives, the agony of defeat, and the difficulty of rejoining The Union.
With the need to talk about and heal their experiences, the first Veteran groups were formed, one for the blue and one for the gray. Eventually, the two sides merged, and this famous quote was born::
"Whether blue or gray it makes no difference to us; we are friends and brothers now."
Let us not soon forget...

Two milkmen brothers who pulled more than a pint in their local pub have had a special delivery.
Mark and Paul Innes went on a double date with landlady sisters Anna and Clare Bedford two years ago and now both couples have had baby girls.
Anna gave birth to Imogen Leigh on November 23 last year and Clare had Ella Louise on March 22.
The County Durham couples are delighted with their pint-sized deliveries.
Proud new mum, Clare 24, said: "I didn't know we'd have a girl, but I'm so happy because the two of them now will be like sisters.
The former landlady of the Hat and Feathers Inn in Medomsley added: "They'll be in the same year at school and hopefully really good friends."
Anna, 31, the landlady of the Earl Grey in nearby West Kyo, said: "Me and my sister have always been really close and the two brothers have always been close, so I hope the two new ones will be the same."
Adding to the twist, both sisters gave birth in the same delivery room at the University of North Durham Hospital.
"And it wouldn't surprise me if they both joined the pub trade and became landladies," said Clare.
Anna met Paul, 28, when he started delivering milk to her pub.
After five months together Paul arranged a double date, introducing Clare to his brother Mark, 24, and the pair hit it off straightaway.
"We liked the same things and had the same sense of humour and it was just a brilliant night."
Until recently Paul and Mark were both milkmen at the same dairy in Consett, County Durham, but Mark has since moved jobs.
The couples both live together in houses next door to each of the pubs, Anna and Paul in Kyo Road and Mark and Clare in Derwent View.
Neither of the extraordinary couples are planning to tie the knot in the near future, but Clare admitted a double wedding could be on the cards.
"We've obviously talked about it getting married together, and I think it's a good idea, but I think we'll wait until the kids are maybe two or three years old first."
The couples are hoping to have babies Imogen and Ella christened together during the Summer.

another POISON IDEA 7" from 1991 I could recently score for cheap. honestly speaking that I got it so cheap was the only reason I bought it cause I already had the 12" version of it which has an additional track and therefore I can't say I really needed this one too but like in many cases having it doesn't hurt neither. anyway on the 7" version you get 2 tracks from the BLANK, BLACKOUT, VACANT 12" area: PUNISH ME which is on said 12" and a total gem plus MARIO THE COP. originally released in an edition of 1000 copies on pink wax hand-numbered and autographed by the band and signed by the cover artist on AMERICAN LEATHER RECORDS. the re-release on VINYL SOLUTION differs from the U.S. version in that the front cover art has a border and the back cover is white on black as opposed to black on white, there are no autographs and it's on purple wax . Also the U.S. sleeve was fold-over. click the cover to d/l!

Technology, especially smartphone technology has made our lives a lot easier. And if it stopped at easy, that would be that, we can say that it has actually made our lives all the more productive. But just because our lives have improved does not mean that we have no obligations elsewhere. Being a part of the planet, and that too being part of the more informed and educated lot, it is our own responsibility to make sure that we do as much as we can to lead eco-friendly lives.
Thanks to smartphones, we can now get a hold of all sorts of apps that actually help us make conscious decisions to curb our lives towards more environmental friendly practices. In order to get you started, here are six top apps for your phone to boost your enthusiasm.
1. GreenCan
The first step is to recycle your trash. Instead of being too lazy to locate a recycling depot or spot, you can just locate the nearest one to you with the help of this app. The app then uses whatever user data it accumulates to give the local community feedback as to where such points are most needed.
2. Recycle Bank
Recycling can also be a game, especially if you have this app aboard your smartphone. With this users can provide information on what they have done as a part of recycling measures and gain points for them. They can later track their points and avail certain rewards with those points too.
3. EcoCharge
This app is to help you save energy, and most importantly, avoid energy wastage. All of us are guilty of leaving our phones, tablets, and laptops on charging when the batteries are full. This app sounds alerts so you can unplug devices and cut down on unnecessary energy consumption.
4. GoodGuide
This app is a must for those who are conscious of making environmentally friendly purchases. It allows you to browse profiles of various products and companies regarding their social, environmental, and health performances. Additionally the app is a bar scanner and users can get extra info on a products nutritional and energy value. In other words, eat green!
5. ecoFootprint
This app allows users to calculate their overall carbon and water footprints all in one place. Additionally, there is a section which educates users how to 'improve your result' and offers tips that cut down environmental hazards created by you.
6. iViro
This app can be used to perform a specific energy analysis of your home and living spaces. With this app users can obtain a detailed profile of their home's heat, cooling, electricity, water, and appliance energy consumptions with their annual cost and carbon dioxide emissions estimates. The app offers tips and guides to cut down on both too.
Hopefully with these apps on your phone you can start carving out a lifestyle which is not only more efficient and healthy for you but also benefits the environment around you. Of course, before downloading any other aps (because there are a plethora of other 'green apps' available) make sure you install some anti-cell phone spyware or anti-keylogger software. No point in losing your privacy in all too eager attempts to save the planet.
James Clark has been in the business of providing quality information on spy software for cell phones for a while now. He's an expert at all things spyware, but his main forte is iPhone spyware which has captured the interest of many.

Before the Law
The main idea of the story Before the Law is the attempt to be accepted in a society to which an individual did not belong. In this story, a man from the country is not allowed by the gatekeeper to pass through the gate. The gatekeeper is protecting the law that the people in the society must follow in order to live peacefully and with freedom. This man belongs to a different society whose laws deviate from those of the society into which he wants to be admitted. The gate is applied as a metaphor to represent the goal that the man is required to achieve before he is allowed to belong to the society. The gatekeeper is used metaphorically to represent the conscious to the requirements of the people in the society behind the gate. Therefore, when the man from the country does not accept the law that is followed by the people, the gatekeeper will not allow him to be among the members of the society.
The man from the country is the main character in the story Before the Law. He sat on a stool outside the gate for many years and unfortunately he was not allowed to enter through the gate. It can be understood that the man from the country is not able to do away with the values in the society he was brought up in. The man was brought up in a society of righteous people and he was unable become a member of the society whose people believed in evil doings. He was therefore required to master the demands of the society so that the gatekeeper could open the gate. The people who belong to the society behind the gate live by the guidelines of the society.
The main character finally learned that he could not be able to master the requirements of living peacefully in the society. He tried his best to master the society's law until he died before achieving his goal. It is possible that the man found it hard to accept the evil characteristics of the society that he wanted to gain entrance into. The gatekeeper told the man that it was possible to gain entrance into the society but not at that moment.

In New York, it's not just the metro! I also advise you to borrow the important bus network. Here's what you need to know about New York buses.
The Transportation Department of New York City tries to improve the city bus system. And The department and the MTA are working together to improve the system. They do it through implementing bus rapid transit improvements on routes throughout the city.
1# Use the unlimited metro map
To get around as you want in New York, I would definitely recommend buying the unlimited Metro card for 7 days, the 7-Day Unlimited Ride MetroCard. This card costs $ 32 and it gives you access to the entire network of the MTA, the New York Transportation Authority.
The metro map allows you to borrow all the buses from New York. Convenient to hop on a bus!
2# Always have the extra
If you are not using a MetroCard card, be sure to always top up to pay for tickets purchased by the unit: the driver does not return the change!
And if you do not have the extra boost, the driver will not hesitate to scold you and the other passengers will make your eyes wide as you will delay the departure of the bus. To have experienced it once, I can tell you that I learned the lesson!
3# Use the Express buses
As in the New York subway, some lines have two types of bus: local buses that stop at each stop, and buses with Limited Stops, which only stop every 10 blocks. A very practical system to save time because, if you have to do a long distance, local buses really train.
Here are the 2 Manhattan lines that provide local service and service with Limited Stops: M4 on Fifth Avenue, Madison Avenue, and Broadway; M98 from Washington Heights to the Upper East Side.
4# Think of buses crosstown
To move from east to west, take the "Crosstown" bus. Unlike other buses, which provide lines linking north to south, these buses cut Manhattan in the width direction. This is very practical to save yourself from walking!
Here are the main crosstown buses in Manhattan: M50 on 50th Street, M42 on 42nd Street, M34 on 34th Street, M23 on 23th Street, M14 on 14th Street, M8 on 8th Street and M21 on Houston Street.
5# Attention to air conditioning
New Yorkers love air conditioning and I suggest you always have a light sweater with you. In buses, air conditioning can be particularly cold and you will sometimes feel like traveling in a fridge.
One tip: the air conditioning is always much stronger in the bottom of the bus than in the front. If you are sensitive to the acclaim, stay ahead.

Big Ten Conference Report - September 3
By American Sports Analysts
Michigan State (+12) @ Oregon - 5:30 PM CST
There was a moment when the Spartans' season flashed before their eyes as QB Connor Cook took a scary hit to the knee in the 1st half against FCS Jacksonville State. Luckily, Cook returned unscathed and finished 12-of-13 passing for 285 yards and 3 TD in the 45-7 drubbing over the Gamecocks. MSU coasted to a victory behind Cook, 211 rush yards, and a dominating defensive performance. The degree of difficulty goes up dramatically this week at Oregon, the 4th ranked team in the nation and one of the toughest venues to play in. Oregon had an easy victory in week one over FCS South Dakota. Heisman candidate QB Marcus Mariota led the way with 267 pass yards, 43 rush yards, and 4 total TD in the 62-13 win. The Ducks rushed for 293 yards on 7.7 YPC en route to a +303 yard advantage over the outmatched Coyotes. It will be a true matchup of strength vs. strength on Saturday as Oregon's fast-paced offense takes on an MSU defense that has ranked at or near the top of the nation over the past few seasons. Oregon depends on its rushing attack averaged 274 YPG on 6.3 YPC last year while MSU allowed just 86 rush YPG on 2.8 YPC. MSU's defense hasn't allowed an opponent to reach exceed 28 points since 2011. If they can hold Oregon to 30 points or less they have a great shot at covering considering that Oregon is just 2-7 SU & 1-8 ATS when scoring fewer than 30 points since the beginning of the 2009 season. The Ducks are just 6-13-1 ATS in the last 20 at home as a favorite of 10 points or more. They are also 0-7 ATS their last seven as a home favorite between 10-and-20 points. Michigan State is 3-1 since 2006 as an underdog of 10 points or more. They are 7-4-1 ATS in their last 12 regular season road games against non-Big Ten teams.
Ohio State (-11) vs. Virginia Tech - 7:00 PM CST
The J.T. Barrett era in Buckeye land didn't exactly get off to a flying start against Navy last week. OSU was losing 13-14 midway through the 3rd quarter before a 80-yard touchdown pass from Barrett to WR Devin Smith gave OSU the lead for good. Navy is no pushover, and we give Barrett and co. credit for getting through a rough start and coming alive down the stretch, giving the Buckeyes a comfortable 17-point win. Navy's vaunted triple-option rushing attack gave OSU's defense some trouble, tallying 370 rush yards on 5.9 YPC, giving up a number of big plays. The Bucks buckled down in the 2nd half, forcing and returning a fumble for a TD in the 3rd quarter and allowing just 36 rush yards in the 4th quarter. OSU now takes a step up in competition as they host the Hokies of Virginia Tech this Saturday. VA Tech had a ho-hum 34-9 victory over FCS William & Mary last week. The Hokies had +295 yards, +12 first downs, and didn't allow the Tribe to reach the end zone. New QB Michael Brewer completed 23-of-30 passes for 251 yards and freshman RB Shai McKenzie had 109 rush yards on just 9 attempts. A stout defense has always been a staple in Blacksburg under head coach Frank Beamer and this year should be no different, presenting the first difficult task for OSU's QB Barrett. The redshirt freshman will have to shake off the jitters as this game will be in prime time broadcasted by ESPN. The good news is that OSU is playing at the Horseshoe, where the Bucks are 15-0 under Urban Meyer. They are also 15-1 SU & 11-5 ATS in the last 16 home games against non-conference foes. VA Tech has been a double-digit underdog just six times since 2000 and is 4-2 ATS in those situations. The Hokies are just 1-9-1 ATS in the last 11 road games against non-conference opponents. This is the first ever meeting between these two schools.
Michigan (+3.5) @ Notre Dame - 6:30 PM CST
The Wolverines were clearly ready for their "rematch" with Appalachian State after the famous loss to the FCS program in 2007. Michigan jumped to a 35-0 halftime lead behind three TD passes to WR Devin Funchess. QB Gardner finished 13-of-14 for 173 yards and 3 TD while RB's Green & Smith combined for 285 rush yards on 22 carries and 3 TD. Sure, it was against an FCS opponent, but it was a promising start for a team that has struggled with offensive consistency over the past few seasons. This week they travel to South Bend for a meeting with rival Notre Dame. The Irish got QB Everett Golson back from his 2013 suspension and his presence cannot be understated. Golson led the Irish to the 2012 BCS championship and is 11-1 overall as a starter. He showed his worth last week with 295 pass yards, 41 rush yards, and 5 total TD in the 48-17 win over Rice. Notre Dame will be without three preseason starters for this matchup after dismissals to DT Ishaq Williams, WR DaVaris Daniels, and CB KeiVarae Russell, among others, for an academic scandal. Michigan will get starting center Graham Glasglow back this week after he served his suspension sitting out against Appalachian State. Motivation will not be lacking for either side here as this is the final scheduled meeting between the two rivals (have met every year since 2002 and 28 times since 1980). Michigan is 6-2 SU & ATS in the last eight meetings with the Golden Domers, but both of the losses were in South Bend. The Wolverines are just 1-6 SU & 2-5 ATS the last two years against ranked opponents - the one SU win was at home against Notre Dame last year. The underdog has won seven of the last 10 meetings outright.
Penn State (-14) vs. Akron - 11:00 AM CST
The James Franklin era got started off with a bang as PSU survived Central Florida in Ireland last week. In a game that went back-and-forth, UCF took a lead with 1:13 remaining on a TD run by QB Justin Holman. PSU QB Hackenberg took the Nittany Lions down the field and put them in position for a 36-yard game-winning field goal as time expired. It would've been a devastating loss for PSU considering they dominated the stat book. PSU had a +265 yard advantage and +13 first downs. UCF's stout defense was able to hold PSU to just 57 yards on 2.0 YPC. Hackenberg was able to lead the way for PSU as he completed 32-of-47 passes for 454 yards. The defense also had a great day, holding UCF to just 24 rush yards on 29 carries (0.8 YPC). PSU had a difficult travel schedule as they return from Ireland (10+ hour flight) to prepare for the Zips of Akron. Akron finished just 5-7 last year, but returned nearly every key position player and have been tabbed as a contender for the MAC title this season. They got off to a promising start last week in a 41-0 win over FCS Howard. Talented Jr. QB Pohl tossed for 304 yards and 4 scores and the defense held Howard to just 216 total yards and 3-of-18 on 3rd down. James Franklin will have to fight off jet-lag and avoid a letdown performance here because this version of Akron has enough talent to pull off an upset. The Zips are 0-4 all-time against PSU, including a 31-7 loss the last time here (2009). They've dropped 20 straight road openers by an average of 28 PPG and they are 0-17 since 1998 against Big Ten squads. PSU is just 3-7 ATS in the last 10 home games as a double-digit favorite against non-conference opponents.
Iowa (-17) vs. Ball State - 2:30 PM CST
The Hawkeyes knew they were going to get a fight against Northern Iowa; but for a team that has aspirations of a Big Ten West title, getting outgained by an FCS program and barely holding them off is a bit concerning. Still, a win's a win and Iowa did a lot of things right. QB Rudocks was 31-of-41 for 250 yards with 2 scores and 0 INT, the stable of RB's pounded for 151 yards on 4.2 YPC, and the defense held the Panthers to just 25 rush yards and 13 total first downs. The renovated defense will have to work on limiting the big plays after UNI QB Kollmorgen (380 pass yards) hooked up with WR Johnson (205 rec. yards) for a couple of big gains. Next up is a battle with MAC member Ball State. BSU finished 10-3 last year but lost top QB Wenning (35 TD, 7 INT in 2013) and WR Snead (106 rec, 15 TD) so the offense that averaged 38.5 PPG in 2013 is expected to take a bit of a step back. The Cards looked good last week, albeit against FCS Colgate, so take it with a grain of salt. BSU tallied 514 yards and 29 first downs in the 30-10 win. RB's Banks and Edwards combined for 243 rush yards on 35 carries, helping ease along QB Ozzie Mann who made his first career start. Iowa and BSU have met twice previously. The Cardinals have dropped both prior meetings (2005 & 2010) by a combined score of 101-0. Ball State is 2-16 SU in its last 18 road openers including 5 straight by an average of 16 PPG. They are 7-3 ATS since 2006 against Big Ten schools, including three SU wins (all against Indiana). Iowa is just 7-20 ATS since 2006 as a favorite of 14 points or more. The Hawkeyes are 4-0 SU but 0-4 ATS the last four games preceding their annual rivalry matchup with Iowa State.
Maryland (-12.5) @ South Florida - 2:30 PM CST
There isn't too much to be learned about Maryland from a 52-7 blowout of James Madison last week, though Maryland will surely be looking for more efficiency from its passing attack after C.J. Brown completed just 11 of 24 attempts. He offset his poor passing performance with three rushing scores as the Terps gashed the Dukes for 285 rushing yards. WR's Stefon Diggs and Deon Long returned to the field for the first times since each suffered a season ending injury early in 2013. They combined for seven receptions for 101 yards and a touchdown (Diggs also returned a kickoff for 59 yards). Defensively the Terps forced three turnovers and held JMU to just 4-for-19 on 3rd down. Next up they travel to Tampa for their first road game of the year at South Florida. USF just just 5-19 over the past two seasons, but there was reason for optimism considering the Bulls return 10 starters on offense. The Bulls didn't exactly look much improved in their debut against FCS Western Carolina last week. Western Carolina jumped out to a 14-3 lead before USF woke up (won 36-31). Western Carolina had +14 first downs and tallied 454 yards against USF, holding the TOP advantage by +15 minutes. USF QB White completed just 9-of-26 passes for 181 yards and an INT. Freshman RB Marlon Mack burst onto the scene with 275 rush yards (11.4 YPC) and 4 TD. Maryland is just 2-4 SU & ATS in the last six non-conference road games. The Terps are just 4-8 ATS in the last 12 as a double-digit road favorite (first time since 2008). The Bulls are 12-6 ATS in the last 18 as a double-digit underdog, including 4-2 ATS in 2013.
Minnesota (-16) vs. Middle Tennessee State - 2:30 PM CST
The Gophers took their time getting started offensively against FCS Eastern Illinois last week, scoring just before halftime to take a 14-0 lead against the Panthers. They ended up winning 42-20, but the Gophers were outgained by 71 yards and had 9 fewer first downs. Many still question the passing ability of QB Leidner after a 9-of-17, 144 yard performance against EIU. Leidner did rush for two scores, but it doesn't appear that he'll put much fear into opposing secondaries this season. Leidner's shortcomings in the passing game allow opposing defenses to load the box against Minnesota's rushing attack - the strength of this team. As a result, the Gophers had just 182 rush yards on 40 carries (4.5 YPC) - that includes a 42-yard TD scamper by RB Edwards. Eastern Illinois exposed some flaws, and Middle Tennessee State will try to take advantage this weekend. MTSU put up 61 points in the victory over FCS Savannah State last week, scoring six rush TD, one pass TD, one defensive TD, and one special teams TD. We're not putting too much stock in that performance considering Savannah State is one of the worst FCS programs. Still, it was a promising start for Blue Raiders QB Grammer, who completed 15-of-17 passes for 250 yards and 1 TD in his starting debut. MTSU has some familiarity with the Big Ten, losing to Minnesota by just seven points in 2010, and Purdue by just 3 points in 2011. Eleven of MTSU's last 15 road openers have come against Big Five conference schools. The Raiders are an impressive 9-1-1 ATS in those 11 games. The Gophers are 13-7 ATS in the last 20 games as a favorite of 14 points or more - though they're on an 0-4 run at home in that situation.
Northwestern (-7) vs. Northern Illinois - 2:30 PM CST
After a disastrous end to last season and some tumultuous news from training camp this offseason, the nightmare continued for Northwestern in a seven-point loss to Cal to kick off the 2014 season. A loss to a team coming off a 1-11 campaign isn't a step in the right direction for the Wildcats and now there's a hint of desperation in the Evanston air. Northwestern QB Siemian was an inefficient 23-of-44 for 229 yards with 1 TD and 2 INT and the rushing attacked mustered just 108 yards on 36 carries (3.0 YPC). The defense did all it could to hold a potent Cal offense, but the Bears still gained 414 yards and achieved 23 first downs. Northern Illinois has gone an impressive 46-10 over the last four seasons, winning two bowl games and even earning an invite to the 2012 Orange Bowl. Star QB Lynch is gone, but the Huskies still return 14 starters, including nine on offense. They got off to a strong start with a 55-3 win over Presbyterian. NIU outgained the FCS foe by a staggering 508 yards and had +30 more first downs. The Huskies have one of the better rushing attacks in the nation and Northwestern will have its hands full this weekend. The Wildcats are on a 0-5 SU run at home and 0-7 ATS run at home. They are on an extended run of 17-34 ATS as a home favorite. The Huskies are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 as an underdog. NIU has won four of the last seven against the Big Ten and they are 13-4 ATS in the last 17 against the B1G.
Illinois (-6) vs. Western Kentucky - 11:00 AM CST
Illinois definitely made it interesting against FCS Youngstown State last Saturday. The Illini looked absolutely abysmal for the first three-and-a-half quarters before a TD with 8:50 remaining gave them the advantage for good. The Illini were outgained, had fewer first downs, and had 20 fewer minutes TOP. The good news for Illinois is that new starting QB Wes Lunt looked very good in his debut. Lunt completed 24-of-38 passes for 285 yards with 4 TD and 0 INT. The bad news is that Illinois gained just 78 rush yards on 3.5 YPC and the defense allowed 203 rush yards. There's still a lot of work to do before Illinois is even considered as a contender in the Big Ten West. If they play like they did last week against Western Kentucky this week, they'll be ripe for an upset. WKU looked very good in its debut against Bowling Green last week. BGU was tabbed to be one of the better teams in the MAC this season and the Hilltoppers absolutely destroyed them. WKU jumped out to a 38-10 lead and coasted to a 59-31 victory. The 'Toppers gained 708 total yards and 40 first downs. QB Doughty was extremely efficient, completing 46-of-56 passes for 569 yards with 6 TD and 0 INT. WKU allowed 466 yards on defense, but if they can replicate that offensive performance like the one against Bowling Green, the Illini will have problems keeping pace. Illinois is just 3-8 ATS in their last 11 as a home favorite. Western Kentucky is 20-6 ATS in their last 26 road games.
Purdue (-3) vs. Central Michigan - 11:00 AM CST
The Boilermakers quickly matched their win total from 2013 with a win over Western Michigan last week. The 43 points scored exceeded any Purdue total from 2013 - it also represented 24% of 2013's point total. QB Etling tossed for 181 yards on 50% completions with 2 TD and 0 INT. RB's Mostert and Hunt combined for 224 yards on 37 carries and 2 TD. There are some causes for concern starting with the defense. The Boilers allowed 456 yards and 24 first downs to Western Michigan - a middle-of-the-pack MAC offense. WMU RB Franklin rushed for 163 yards and 3 scores, repeatedly gashing this Purdue defensive front. The Boilers came away with a W, and ow they've got a chance to build a little momentum and confidence against another directional Michigan. Central Michigan opened its season with a narrow victory against FCS Chattanooga. Chattanooga actually had a 16-0 lead before CMU went on a 20-0 run to close it out. It wasn't a sharp performance by any means, but the Chippewas churned out 150 rush yards and had an efficient day from QB Rush (15-of-26 for 173 yards and 2 TD) and that was enough to get the W. Central Michigan is 3-19 in its last 22 against the Big Ten - playing at least one school every season. They are on a 6-3 ATS run against Big Ten schools, earning 3 SU wins in the process (Indiana in 2008, Michigan State in 2009, and Iowa in 2012). Purdue is just 3-9 ATS in the last 12 home games.
Nebraska vs. FCS McNeese State - 11:00 AM CST
Nebraska put together the most complete performance of any Big Ten team in week one. Florida Atlantic was overmatched in almost every way as the Huskers dominated their way to a 55-7 win. The Huskers gained 784 yards of offense and achieved 35 first downs. They rumbled for 498 rush yards and five rushing touchdowns behind 232 rush yards by star RB Abdullah. QB Armstrong Jr. added 271 pass yards and two scores. Defensively they held the Owls to just 200 yards and 13 first downs. FAU QB's Johnson and Hankerson struggled against this Huskers pass defense, completing just 11-of-30 passes for 95 yards. This week they get McNeese State, who finished 10-3 last year and has upset an FBS school in each of the past two seasons (Middle Tennessee State in 2012 and South Florida in 2013).
Wisconsin vs. FCS Western Illinois - 11:00 AM CST
The loss to LSU won't affect Wisconsin's ability to win the conference, but the complete letdown in the 2nd half and the utter lack of a passing attack certainly presented some red flags. Wisconsin built a 24-3 lead and appeared to be in complete control of the game. LSU mounted a comeback in the 2nd half and took away Wisconsin's rushing attack. QB McEvoy couldn't capitalize as he finished just 8-of-24 for 50 yards and 2 2nd half INT's. Coach Gary Anderson has stated that backup QB Stave (2013's starter) has some issues and is not available to play, so McEvoy's job is not in jeopardy at the moment. Star RB Gordon finished with 140 rush yards, but had just four attempts in the 2nd half - after the game the coaches cited a hip injury being the reason for that. Gordon won't miss any time, but the Badgers need to put together more of a passing attack if they want to compete for a Big Ten title. This week they get a refresher against FCS Western Illinois at Camp Randall, where they've won 18 straight home openers by an average of 20 PPG.
Rutgers vs. FCS Howard - 11:00 AM CST
The Scarlet Knights made a memorable debut of their 2013 season, going across the country and winning at Washington State, 41-38. Rutgers scored a TD with 3:24 left to take the lead, then held off WSU for the final minutes to seal the victory. QB Nova completed 16-of-27 passes for 281 yards and 2 scores (1 INT) while RB James churned out 173 rush yards and 3 scores. Defensively they took their lumps against Mike Leach's aerial attack as WSU completed 40-of-56 passes for 532 yards and 5 scores. Credit the Knights for winning the shootout and starting off their inaugural season in the B1G with a win. This week they get FCS Howard at home. Howard was shut-out by Akron last week, 41-0.
Indiana - Bye Week
Indiana has one of the better offensive line units in the nation and they used it to perfection last week against FCS Indiana State. The Hoosiers ran the ball 69 times for 455 yards (6.6 YPC) and four scores. RB's Coleman and Roberts combined for 376 of those rush yards and QB Sudfeld only had to attempt 18 passes. If Indiana has successfully instilled a rushing presence into its offensive arsenal - they could be a serious sleeper in the Big Ten. The defense also had a promising effort, albeit against an FCS program, as it allowed just 170 total yards and 10 first downs. They get a bye week before traveling to Bowling Green next week.

|If only you guys can see how this works in real life...
What Sephora Says: The page for this product is not available at the Sephora site as of this writing. We'll go with the ad copy from the Tarte website instead:
The gel-based lip tint imparts a natural rosy glow that stays all day, while the lip-enhancing gloss gives the appearance of fuller lips, for a pout that's pretty and polished. So even after gloss wears away the lip tint remains!
First impressions: I worked with the tint first, which I thought would give me a nice, deep stain. (My standards for stains are pretty high: the first one I ever used was the original BeneTint, and that stuff really did a number on my lips and cheeks - and clothes, and teeth - for years.) This one, I found, was a little too timid; the color was perceptible, even on my usually stain-product-averse lips. So I thought, why not layer the red gloss on top of that? One swipe of the thick red gloss, and I was sold.
Texture: Shiny. Almost syrupy. And yet, not even a hint of sticky-tacky.
Color saturation: Here it's almost looks nude... but in real life? POW! Sheer maraschino red. (The fun part: I wore this one to work, too. Hello, students!)
Minty fresh factor: None.
Hydration capacity: Not exactly as super-moisturizing and creamy as the Vitamin Infused Lip Gloss, but my lips were certainly not dried out with this one - not even after three straight hours of lecturing, plus cracker-eating and water-guzzling.
This product will remind you of: "Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)" by Garbage.
(Aside: I never liked anything else from Garbage after their first album. Shirley, Shirley, Shirley: love you, enjoyed you in Terminator, wish you'd hang out with Craig Ferguson more often... but I still think this song, and everything else, is weak sauce compared to "Stupid Girl.")
The person you'd want to smooch while wearing this is: Hard to say. Too sheer for the porn-star look; too shiny for the rockabilly type, too earthy for any period drama, especially after ranting about... Wait, did I just say period drama?
Should've thought about it sooner.
My recommendations: First, there's no two ways about it - the only way to wear this is with the stain AND the gloss, together. It's a lot of work compared to the swipe-and-go ease of other glosses, but trust me - the more effort you put in, the less corners you cut, and the payoff is definitely worth it. I would save my tiny tube for special red-lippy occasions, but I do recommend getting the full-size if you're looking for a sheer, user-friendly red that you can wear almost every day.


text: Eating Eggs Almost as Bad as Smoking Yolks speed plaque buildup By Matt Cantor, Newser User Posted Aug 15, 2012 9:04 AM CDT Updated Aug 19, 2012 2:45 PM CDT 61 comments Comments Eggs are bad for you again, a study suggests. (Shutterstock) (Newser) – Seems like we were just hearing how nutritious eggs are; now, they're bad for us again. Or so says one new study, that found that eating yolks on a regular basis is almost as bad as smoking. It found that consuming yolks speeds up the buildup of plaque in arteries, which in turn contributes to heart attacks and strokes. In the Canadian study of 1,200 patients, subjects who ate at least three yolks—which are high in cholesterol—per week suffered plaque buildup at two-thirds the speed smokers experience. Three yolks per week were significantly more dangerous than two, the study found. The growth of plaque buildup, known as atherosclerosis, is linear after the age of 40 for most people—but for smokers and yolk fans, the study found it is exponential, the Globe and Mail reports. What's more, "in diabetics, an egg a day increases coronary risk by two- to five-fold," says the author. Still, a study just last year found that a daily egg didn't boost stroke or heart attack risk in healthy men; the debate goes on. (Read more eggs stories.)
