Hi: 11° Lo:3° 7 day
A CARING Droitwich Spa High School student had a day to remember when she picked up her Gold Duke of Edinburgh award in London.
Jessica Wilson was among hundreds of young achievers from across the UK to have a date in the prestigious setting of St James's Palace.
There she received her accolade from the popular award schemes patron, HRH the Duke of Edinburgh.
The Gold Award Presentation (GAP) is a celebration and recognition of Jess's achievements in completing her Gold Duke of Edinburgh (DofE) programme. The
GAP is a unique event and a fitting culmination to mark the hard work, determination and perseverance required.
Jessica worked tirelessly through the five sections of her DofE programme over two years to achieve her Gold award.
Her activities included 18 months service at the local Girls' and Boys' Brigades, during which she also achieved the Young Leaders' Award, 12 months learning the piano through school and six months attending a Zumba class at her local gym.
For the residential section of the award, Jess participated in a week-long National Trust Working Holidays programme of conservation activities in Anglesey which included building a drystone wall along the coastal path near Holyhead.
Jess' assessed expedition took place in the Lake District and involved four days walking on mountainous terrain for an average of eight hours each day and camping overnight.
Although the school has organised the same trip for many years, this was the first time it hadn't rained and Jess and her group actually suffered from sunstroke, rather than flooding.
"The DofE experience as a whole is something I will never forget," Jess said.
"It has helped me to develop my skills and experience, to have confidence that I can do things I really didn't think I could, while allowing me to give something
back to the community.
"It was great to meet Prince Philip and Olympic silver medallist Phil Brown at the Gold Award Presentation," she added.
Jess's Gold Award helped her get her place on her geography degree course at the University of Sheffield, where she is now in her second year.

Parkway construction to begin in spring
By JAMIE PATTERSON
Managing Editor
City leaders will pursue a bond to tie up all the loose ends for the Willie Morris Parkway.
The Board of Mayor and Alderman approved the resolution for a $3 million general obligation bond, which would aid in the finances of the upcoming parkway construction.
Mayor McArthur Straughter told The Yazoo Herald on Tuesday morning that he is very excited that all the financial obligations are coming together for this extremely important project.
Straughter said the only step left to take is sending the necessary paperwork to the Mississippi Development Authority, requesting a memorandum of understanding for its $3.3 million toward the project.
"The funds are in place," Straughter said. "Now it's just the matter of getting MDA's funding in place."

Twitter twits
OK, so you can post something stupid anywhere. But there's something about Twitter's rapid-fire, 140-character bursts that brings out the stupid in people.
From companies embarrassing themselves to celebrities behaving badly, it's hard to name just one Twitter doofus. But here are a few nominees:
• Chris Brown, the hip-hop star, consistently used Twitter to make himself look like a foul-mouthed rage monster. Instead of thanking fans after winning a Grammy, he launched a profanity-laced bromide at his "haters." Then there were the misogynistic, scatological insults he hurled at comedian-critic Jenny Johnson before "quitting" Twitter. (He's back.)
• McDonald's thought it would get a little of that social media love it had been hearing about in January when it created the #McDstories hashtag -- asking customers to share their favorite McDonald's memories. Then it found out what happens when you give the Internet open access to your advertising effort. McDonald's yanked the campaign after just two hours and countless food-horror stories about fingernails, insects and bouts of food poisoning.
• Spike Lee was, like many Twitter users, angered by the killing of Florida teen Trayvon Martin. Tweeting the home address of shooter George Zimmerman would have been questionable enough. But Lee mistakenly tweeted out the address of a couple who have a son by that name. They had to leave their home after being besieged by reporters and threats. Lee would later apologize and "reach an agreement" with the aggrieved family.
• Greek triple jumper Paraskevi Papachristou was on her way to the Olympics when she tried a little ill-advised Twitter humor. With so many African Olympians in London, "the West Nile mosquitoes will at least eat homemade food!" she wrote. Her tweet was quickly criticized as racially insensitive, and Greece's Olympic Committee barred her from participating in the Games.
• Oprah Winfrey had been gushing for weeks about how much she loved the new Microsoft Surface tablet, culminating in this tweet: "Gotta say love that SURFACE! Have bought 12 already for Christmas gifts." Unfortunately for her, those words were followed by ... "via Twitter for iPad."

A Coach's Perspective
This year's Stanley Cup Playoffs have lived up to the expectations as they are just as exciting and unpredictable as ever. Like most fans of hockey, Monarchs Head Coach Mark Morris has been watching the playoffs on television but as he watches the games, he remains a coach ready to observe and analyze each team. Manchestermonarchs.com caught up with Morris to gain his perspective on the Conference Finals and some of his former players.
Q: Starting with the Eastern Conference Final, what are your thoughts on our neighbors to the south, the Boston Bruins?
Morris: "They (the Bruins) were dead in the water not too long ago. The Toronto (Game 7) comeback has ignited a flame of confidence and it's been exciting to watch. Many of those guys with Boston were in Providence earlier in their careers so we got to see them a lot too. Guys like (Brad) Marchand, (Torey) Krug, Matt Bartkowski, (Adam) McQuaid, (Tuukka) Rask, (Johnny) Boychuk, (David) Krejci and some others. It is a strong endorsement for the American Hockey League and the large role they play in developing players for the NHL."
Q: Chicago was one of the favorites to win the Stanley Cup during the regular season and it seems like Los Angeles is determined to repeat as Champions. What do you make of the Western Conference Final so far?
Morris: "I think Chicago is back to playing the way they were when they started the year on a torrid pace. They are explosive offensively and Crawford has been very good in net for them. It was good to see the Kings bounce back on home ice on Tuesday with hard work and intensity that helped them win the Stanley Cup last season. Hopefully, the Kings tie the series at home tonight (Thursday)."
Q: A total of six players from this season's Monarchs roster have played in the Stanley Cup Playoffs including two rookies in right wing Tyler Toffoli and left wing Tanner Pearson. What have you seen from them in their short time with Los Angeles?
Morris: "Those guys have impacted the Kings immediately and in a positive way. When you see them involved, it certainly makes you feel proud. Those experiences for the players can only help their confidence for next season."
Q: Is it difficult being just a fan when you watch the Kings since you know so many of the players on a personal level as well?
Morris: "It is a little different. They are playing for different staffs but knowing each one's capabilities makes it a little more personal. It is very exciting to see them contributing. Tyler Toffoli has played great. I am so happy for Jake Muzzin and his growth this season. Watching Slava Voynov be such a valuable piece to the Kings puzzle has been good too. You can go right down the list and it is just amazing to see them grow as a player."

The White House Wednesday denied an accusation from a top Democratic Senator that a House Republican leader told President Barack Obama "I cannot even stand to look at you" during a recent White House meeting on the government shutdown.
"I looked into it and spoke with somebody who was in the meeting and it did not happen," White House spokesman Jay Carney said in response to a question about the charge, which Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Senate Democrat, posted online three days ago.
"Senator Durbin stands by his comments," said Max Gleischman, a spokesman for Durbin.
But Gleischman declined publicly to provide additional details about the allegation or say who Durbin believes uttered the remark.
In his comments, which were posted on his campaign's Facebook page, Durbin wrote: "Many Republicans searching for something to say in defense of the disastrous shutdown strategy will say President Obama just doesn't try hard enough to communicate with Republicans. But in a 'negotiation' meeting with the President, one GOP House Leader told the President: 'I cannot even stand to look at you.' What are the chances of an honest conversation with someone who has just said something so disrespectful?"
The alleged exchange occurred at an October 10 meeting between the President and a group of about 20 Republican House members -- mostly members of leadership and committee chairs, according to a Congressional aide. Durbin did not attend the meeting.
A spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner demanded Durbin retract his allegation and apologize.
"Senator Durbin's accusation is a serious one, and it appears to have been invented out of thin air. The Senator should disclose who told him this account of events, retract his reckless allegations immediately, and apologize," said Brendan Buck.
Louisiana Republican Rep. Steve Scalise, who attended the White House meeting, told CNN Durbin's account "never happened."
"It's irresponsible and divisive of him because it never happened and he ought to apologize for saying it. He ought to just man up and say 'you know what, I said something foolish I shouldn't have said, it didn't happen' and apologize."
--CNN's Deirdre Walsh contributed to this story.

I think there is a mistake in this sentence : "We've been impressed with this 16 megapixel X-Trans APS-C CMOS sensor in our reviews of cameras like the X-E1 and X100S".
If the sensor of the X-M1 is the same as the X-E1, the X100S has a new version of the X-Trans, the X-Trans II. At the moment only the X100S and the new X-E2 have the new X-Trans II.
It is a crucial point, since the different versions of the sensors are what make the differences between Fuji models :
- X-Trans I for X-Pro 1, X-E1 and X-M1
- X-Trans II for X100S and X-E2
- Conventional CMOS sensor for X-A1

China Has a New Meme
It's hard to keep up on all the new memes. Are we still planking, or Tebowing? Should we stop Eastwooding now that the election is over? If you're in China, get low and point those fingers: now you're "shootering." The Chinese Navy put into service its first aircraft carrier in August, and last week, launched and landed its first jet, the J-15. Proud citizens are now posting pictures of themselves mimicking the movements made by the flight deck crewmen that signals the release of the jet for take-off.

Outdated Java weak spots are widespread, Websense says
A new Websense report suggests that approximately 94 percent of endpoints that run Oracle's Java are vulnerable to at least one exploit, and we are ignoring updates at our own peril.
According to security researchers at Websense, it's not just zero-day attacks that remain a persistent threat. Instead, Java exploits are now a popular tool for cybercriminals.
With so many vulnerabilities, keeping browsers up-to-date can become an issue -- especially as Java has to be updated independently from our preferred browser, and a mobile, cross-browser workforce is difficult to manage securely. Keeping this in mind, the security … Read more

Zip-through luxury city cycling jersey
Constructed from fine merino wool, the Rapha Track Top uses a heavier yarn than other tops and jerseys in the Rapha City Riding range. Designed to be worn as an outer layer on cool autumn days or in milder winter conditions, the Track Top also makes a perfect warm up (or warm down) jersey for race days. The natural performance properties of merino mean it is highly breathable, while the heavier yarn offers superior insulation. Like other jerseys in the range, the Track Top has a fully-fashioned construction, meaning the main panels are knitted rather than stitched together, for a soft, elegant finish.
Key features:
- High-wicking
- Itch-free and odour resistant
- Full-length zip with O-ring puller
- Contrast piping
- Fine rib collar, cuffs and armband
- Slim cut
- Rear pocket
- Detachable high-vis tab

Honey-Vanilla Frozen Yogurt with Homemade Granola and Dried Fruits

That looks lovely! Granola is addictive and your combo is just heavenly.
Great shots!

Both the frozen yogurt and granola look and sound fantastic! I must make it next week when we finish our new year's detox. I can't wait! :) There's no snow in London and the weather actually feels like early spring. I'm so glad I enjoyed snow during Christmas. I wish you a great new year!

It sounds like a delicious and healthy dessert. I could almost eat this for breakfast without any feelings of guilt.

Hi, El. What do you think about using plain Greek yogurt (instead of vanilla)? I hope you're enjoying the snow. I am!
- January 12, 2011 at 5:11 PM
- Anna said...
We have lots of snow on the ground here, but none falling from the sky. The frozen yogurt sounds great but I might have to save it for a time when I'm not so chilly. Enjoy your snow day, they're the best!
- January 12, 2011 at 5:30 PM
- El said...
Jess- I think it would be fine but I suspect it would be fine depending on your taste. I suspect it will be more much tart and much less sweet with plain.
- January 12, 2011 at 8:28 PM
El, you did it again! Stunning photos. I know it's cold out but I'm always in the mood for ice cream!!

Granola is exactly what I put on top of my frozen yogurt so this post is right up my alley. Looks really delicious.

I just love when I see an update on your site = ) I really like the contrast in colors, against the bowl and what I contains... Honey Vanilla.. it's a great combination, right? Granola, dried fruits.. all I love.

the frozen yogurt got me here but adding granola is a great excuse to indulge in this for breakfast! love it!

Oh El, you make the simplest things so wonderful. :-) Adding a bit of dark chocolate is an inspired idea. :-)

Mmmm. As usual, your photos are beautiful--it's funny how New Englanders (myself included) love ice cream or will eat frozen desserts even when the snow is piling up outside. I am inspired to take out my ice cream maker later today. Thanks, El
- January 13, 2011 at 4:57 AM
- Sylvie @ Gourmande in the Kitchen said...
I have to agree with Meeta, the honey-vanilla frozen yogurt is what caught my eye, but the granola makes it healthy right? I always love a frozen dessert that doesn't require making a custard base!

Fortunately it has about 5°C, so all the dirty snow has melted. I really DO NOT like winter and snow and coldness. So I'm glad for every degree warmer. Last weekend it was even warm enough to cycle to the farmers weekend (10°C in the sun).
Your frozen yogurt sounds fantastic, although I think I have to wait until it's warmer for everything frozen. I always make granola myself, too. I love it to change the flavor every now and then just a bit (like adding cocoa or maple syrup). Adding warm milk instead of cold is also a very good thing in the cold season for granola. - January 13, 2011 at 6:03 AM

This is the healthiest way to enjoy a frozen treat! With an easy to follow recipe this could be done anytime. The honey compliments the frozen yogurt granola well!

Excellent recipe. Glad I found this blog!!

I don't think I ever appreciated baking as much until I got to the east coast. On these days surrounded by snow, it's nice to have the house warmed up by a hot oven and sweet aromas emanating through out.
I like that the frozen yogurt recipe goes straight into the ice cream machine without heating. I'll have to look out for the Silver Palette rolled oats. I use regular rolled oats, but now I wonder what I cold be missing.
By the way, I tried your ultimate chocolate ganache cupcake recipe, which was so good that I polished a couple before they got iced with ganache. LOL! I'll have to make another batch for pictures. - January 13, 2011 at 10:52 AM

What an idea! Thumb up weather by making something cold and enjoying it in the warm inside!! perfect revenge :D
Its cold here.. but I am keeping warm with stews and such :)))
homemade granola is simply the best! - January 13, 2011 at 8:08 PM

Horray for snow! We got a big storm here in eastern Canada as well. I LOVE everything about this treat you made! The use of the greek yogurt and honey- perfect!
- January 13, 2011 at 9:00 PM
One thing most people don't get is how much we New Englanders love ice cream. My apt. can be freezing and I still want it! This recipe looks amazing. YUM!!!

- A Canadian Foodie said...
I really appreciate the frozen yogurt recipe as I make my own yogurt and make my own ice creams and sorbets all of the time. This is the best recipe I have seen in ages - and honey with homemade granola? Perfect. I make my own granola, too - and always have some on hand. When I am a bad girl, I eat it with ice cream instead of with my yogurt. NOW I can eat it with FROZEN yogurt. How perfect is that???

I wouldn't mind being snowed in and would probably spend it the way you've described. But we're finally getting some of the weather we should have gotten last summer, and I'm stuck at home with a plumber in my garage. It's been clear most of the week and today is 75! I think I have that blue bowl...love transferware :)

Having a treat like this would certainly make the snow bearable! I love making granola but have never tried making frozen yogurt. I can't wait to try it because your photos make it look irresistible!
We have about 5-6 inches of new snow on the ground this week. Nothing compared to our record snows last year! - January 19, 2011 at 9:19 AM

I'd like to visit a place that has snow. So beautiful. In So. California it's like Spring or beginning of Summer weather.
I just made granola this morning...I'm going to try your recipe next time. Lots of good, wholesome ingredients! - January 20, 2011 at 2:48 PM

Joint Channel Enablement Programs Created to Increase Partner Profitability and Provide Greater Customer Choice
SAN JOSE and SANTA CLARA, Calif. – July 22, 2010 – Brocade® (NASDAQ: BRCD) and McAfee, Inc. (NYSE: MFE) today announced that they have completed the next phase of a strategic partnership created to deliver a broad set of fully interoperable, simplified network-based security solutions through joint channel partners. McAfee and Brocade have developed a series of jointly designed, end-to-end network security solutions with advanced functionality, including fully automated threat response and enforcement, firewall load balancing and a broad set of intrusion prevention capabilities.
To help fully equip partners with the necessary tools to profitably sell these joint solutions, Brocade and McAfee have rolled out comprehensive channel marketing and sales enablement programs. These programs feature detailed use cases and multifaceted awareness campaigns to help partners identify customer challenges and design network security solutions for enterprise IT environments.
"As a major technology provider for the federal market, we clearly recognize that IT security is paramount to the solution providers and government end users we serve," said Skip Liesegang, vice president of the Government Channels Division at immixGroup, Inc. "The work that Brocade and McAfee have done regarding the roll-out of these solutions to the channel exemplifies the high level of foresight and dedication from both companies to bring comprehensive network security solutions for a wide range of networking environments that enable federal agencies to reduce IT complexity and operational costs."
To deliver greater customer value, Brocade and McAfee have focused on optimizing network management integration functions between their leading-edge product sets to enhance the scalability and resiliency of threat protection, defend against intrusion attacks and bolster firewall capabilities. These solutions enable customers to:
"The pairing of Brocade's industry-leading networking technologies with the comprehensive portfolio of McAfee security products presents customers with unprecedented levels of end-to-end threat protection," said Alex Thurber, senior vice president of Worldwide Channels and Commercial Sales at McAfee. "Pulling from the strengths of both companies, this strategic partnership has resulted in new joint solutions that leverage network intelligence to provide simplified monitoring and management of IT security in a way that has never been done before."
The continued proliferation of feature-rich applications, coupled with the increase in the number of personal computers and mobile devices, is placing an unprecedented amount of pressure on IT organizations to protect their mission-critical enterprise information assets. In addition, as organizations begin the transition towards highly virtualized infrastructures to support cloud-enabled environments, the network is becoming the aggregation point where information is stored and managed.
As a result of this shift, organizations need to protect and secure their networks with validated solutions that reduce IT complexity, are scalable and enable deeper management functionality. The pairing of Brocade leading-edge networking products with the extensive security capabilities of McAfee provides customers with a simplified, pretested way to protect their network infrastructure and helps provide channel partners with a way to deliver comprehensive, scalable network security solutions that address customer needs.
"Brocade and McAfee are not only committed to developing best-in-class network security solutions, but we are also steadfast in jointly defining the channel routes-to-market for these solutions," said Barbara Spicek, vice president of Worldwide Channels at Brocade. "Through this partnership, Brocade and McAfee are united through a common vision to provide opportunities for the channel to increase profitability via the delivery of simplified, open standards-based network security solutions."
The solutions are being delivered under a multiyear partnership between Brocade and McAfee through select value-added resellers.

We are showing you the Taiwanese version of our site: would you prefer a different location?
Mother's Day
Every time a holiday rolls around our inboxes are full to the brim with gift buying guides. We delivered ours on Wednesday (you can use the code MOTHER12 at checkout this weekend for 20% off women's products). We reached out to a few of our friends to see what they were doing for their mothers. There was a cycling theme that ran through the gift giving, whether it was the young racer thinking about her mother that had raised a family of cyclists, a husband and his love for the mother of their children, or a heartwarming anecdote of the racer and his realization that his mother was one as well. Shopping for Mother may quickly be over but that doesn't mean you should stop thinking about the one who brought you into the world, and besides, mothers can always use a great gift, no matter what time of year.
Jon Woodroof - Husband, proprietor TWOTONEATL.COM
"Wherever your marriage is going, riding a tandem will get you there faster."
My wife and I met through cycling and though our common ground extends much deeper, bikes have always brought us closer to each other. Now family time is very often also bike time. But Mother's Day isn't about bikes, and only technically about family, it is really all about Moms. Mothers are notorious for thinking of everyone else's well being before themselves. My wife is a mom that commutes by bike, the Women's Merino Jersey is a solid step towards ensuring my concern for my wife's comfort whilst riding is not derailed by purchasing something she'd never wear. I know not everyone adores flouro all the time. When buying for mom, lean towards timeless. Seasons change and what better material to suit that then merino?
Every Mom deserves acknowledgment this Sunday. My plan is to make this Mother's Day more memorable and to honor the most important woman in my life by making something special with my 2 year old son for his mom that she's sure to treasure forever. Maybe we will give it to her after a ride somewhere together. Happy Mother's day Stacey!
Julie Krasniak - Daughter, Professional Bike Racer
My Mom is a mother of bicycle racers. She is also the wife of a racer, the daughter of racer and the sister of a bicycle racer. Yet she would never consider racing herself. She has spent almost twenty years at the side of the road or a dirt track. She has been there to hug after defeat, to kiss after victory and of course to clean the injuries. There is only one thing that she says to me now: "when you do think about retiring from racing, please, do sport for yourself, the competition it's too stressful for your Mother."
But, even with all the training and racing that is happening, I still have to find a gift.
Option 1: Essentials Case
Your Mom is a woman, she knows how use a mini-leather bag.Option 2: Rapha Tote Bag
Your Mom have a lot of bags, because she absolutely needs all of them. The Tote Bag is new, and I have just tested it for week-end in the South of France. Picture it along the water in Saint Tropez, shopping, the grocery store and of course it is great for pre-race needs. Plus, it is just enough big to put everything you need for everything you do. (See photo above.)
Adnan Kadir - Owner, Operator LifeCycle Adventure Tours
One day, many months after I began racing my bike, I came home tired, wet, and hungry from training. My Mum watched as I ate warm soup that she had prepared for me. She seemed somewhat preoccupied. After a few minutes, she said, "You know, cycle racing runs in your family."
I had no idea. I had come to the bike on my own, with no particular encouragement or discouragement from my parents. I had been crazy about bikes for what seemed like forever. As I ate my soup, my mum recounted stories of 200km training rides, the fierce Danish wind, and multiple national championships. My mum was a champion bike racer.
A few things that I know my Mum would appreciate for Mother's Day:
LifeCycle Adventures trip for two (so my father can come with her) to the Willamette Valley. A box of Leonidas Belgian Chocolates because what mother doesn't love Belgian Chocolate? Plus a pound of Heart Coffee, only the best from Portland, Oregon. And of course, a White Rapha Silk Scarf.
So, whether your plans for the weekend include a bike ride like one of the Cyclofemme rides taking place around the world, or a simple jaunt through the park, consider some of these options for your Mother's Day gift buying, but whatever the case, remember that this day belongs to that special lady. Happy Mother's Day.

Haven't seen Front Rank and Perry together, so can't comment on that.
I too will swear the Perry site, pre-modernization, listed the range as Crecy to Agincourt. Not being the most up on the period, I can't say if they are useable or not, but I would believe Invisible. That dude knows his stuff!
The plastics? Would they be useable?
Perry do make some of the best minis, period. Based on choice, I would move my gaming period to Agincourt to use their minis over others!

Thread: Fueling up Avalanched
Fueling up Avalanched
I just bought a 2004 Chevy Avalanche Z66 and went to the gas station for the first time with my Ava. I waited and waited before filling up my truck because I didn't want to mix different type's of octane gas because I have no clue what octane of gas the dealer put in it. So I waited until my gas gauge was on E and my Low Fuel light came on. I went home and did a few things "took about an hour" then went to the gas station. When I got to the station I put some GumOut fuel octane booster and Carb/Fuel Injector cleaner and put it into my gas tank before I filled up my truck. I looked how big my gas tank was and it says it is a 31 gallon gas tank but I couldn't even pump 21 gallons and my fuel gauge didn't go all the way to F it was just shy of it tho. I went to the same gas station that I always got to when I am in my town so I don't understand why it wouldn't fill it all the way up.

10-04-2012, 06:42 PM #3If the fuel light just came on. then I think you should have at least 3 gallons left in it.. Not sure.. but 21 definitely seems off.... But then again, Chevy doesn't have a great track record with their fuel gauges.

10-04-2012, 06:47 PM #4Is it possible that the station has a limit on debit or credit purchases. I know not to long ago most pumps automatically stopped at $75.00. You were required to re swipe the card to pump more. Just a thought.

10-04-2012, 06:51 PM #6Ok, your gauge is telling you it's not full, so there must be a problem with:
- the neck of the tank,
- the hose at the pump.
How did you conclude the tank was full?
If the fuel was appearing to be overflowing from the neck, maybe there is a "big" dent in the bottom of the tank.Ray

pumps in Los Angeles have been cutting off @ $100 for me..sucks. Just about full but not quite.
Keep an eye on the dollar amount. I've guilty of not filling up until the cluster tells me the range is LOW...
10-04-2012, 07:59 PM #8Yeah, they all do that when you use a card at the pump. The pump control program passes the card account number to the issuing financial institution and requests a hold to be placed on $100. The pump will shut off at $100, filled, or not filled.
We've had this problem, in Canada, for awhile (our gas is a lot higher than in the US), if gas prices remain high, and I'm sure they will, the hold amount will probably be raised.
10-04-2012, 08:07 PM #9If you pumped almost 21 (according to your receipt) and have a 31 gallon tank then your about 10 short. If your card shut it off then considering you had a few gallons left then your probably closer to about 6-7 gallons short putting your gauge about where it should be. Hope thats your issue!!
I wish $3.59 was the price here!! seen $4.06 here todayLast edited by the phantom; 10-04-2012 at 08:18 PM.

11/02/2009 - 11/07/2009: The Duck Walk
A lot of the exercises I have shared have been specific to the tree stand hunter. It is high time we offer something for the hunter who likes to spend his/her tome on the ground, stalking or still hunting.
The duck walk is an excellent bodyweight movement that works your legs, hips, and core. Anyone who has had to move quietly in a couch for any length of time can attest to this. Performing the duck walk can help you build this strength so that you can perform better on your next stalk.
Pretty simple. Drop down onto your haunches while keeping your head and torso erect. Walk like a duck, striving to move your upper body as little as possible. Do this 4-6 times, for a distance of 30-50 feet, resting 30-60 seconds between each set.

Jessica Fairley is a reporter with FOX 31 News
In the final Ben Hill County Commission meeting for 2012 County Manager Frank Feild presented a positive report about the county's delinquent tax situation.
Although the county is still facing financial disarray, officials are cracking down on delinquent tax payers.
The Ben Hill County tax commissioner held a Delinquent Property Tax Sale that produced more than $9,500 in delinquent taxes, penalties, interest and bid revenues.
A total of 13 delinquent properties were sold.
More than $200,000 in back taxes have been collected this year.
Officials say although they're still facing financial difficulties in the county, they will continue to work closely with the tax commissioner to recover delinquent taxes.
"I know that there was a lot of concern in the community about taxes not being collected like they should be but from our perspective the tax commissioner is doing a great job and being very aggressive in going after these back taxes," says Frank Field, Ben Hill County Manager.
During Tuesday's meeting commissioners also went over the energy excise tax but decided to table the matter for a public hearing.
Emergency Management Services Director Mark Shealey approached the board about a possible ambulance rate increase. He says since daily costs are going up, the rate increase would help keep the budget balanced.
Commissioners asked Shealey to return to January's meeting with more information about how the ambulance ride rate increase would affect people and save money.
Although commissioners tabled several issues during the final meeting for 2012, they say they'll tackle them again in 2013.

THE MAROON "For a Greater Loyola ESTABLISHED 1923 VOL. 76 NO. 22 Loyola University New Orleans FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1998 Faculty raise inadequate, senate says By STEPHEN STUART Copy Editor Loyola's Board of Trustees should ensure nationally competitive faculty salaries and raises higher than the 2 percent planned for next year, according to a recent motion passed by the University Senate. The motion, which said the extra money should come from a draw down on the university's endowment, passed at the senate's April 2 meeting. It said the raises in principle should be not just 2 percent, but 2 percent above the U.S. inflation rate in order to pay faculty properly. The motion's author, religious studies professor Vernon Gregson, introduced the motion at the Feb. 5 meeting, but the senate postponed its vote until April for lack of time to discuss it. The board will receive the senate's request at its May meeting when it must approve the university's final budget. Gregson's motion proposes that the faculty salary raise of 2.5 percent for this year and planned raises of 2 percent for the next Public Safety still scratching its head over rash of thefts By JACKIE WILNEFF Assistant News Editor Another wave of thefts has hit the Communications/Music complex. During the Easter weekend, someone broke into the office of Jim Eiseman, associate communications professor, and stole his new Macintosh computer. Mary Blue, associate communications professor, also reported some stolen property over the weekend. Eiseman reported his computer stolen on Monday when he found his office ransacked. A blanket, a sports bag and the change from his desk were also stolen. Eiseman says he thinks that the person used the bag and the blanket to cover up and carry the computer out of the building. Eiseman said the computer cost more than $3,000. The door was closed and locked, but there were several marks on the door around the lock. UNDERGROUND UNDERWATER Unexpected foundation problems leave former Wolf Pub in sink or swim situation By JACKIE WILNEFF Assistant News Editor Loyola's latest attempt to go Underground is now underwater. Plans to open the Underground this week were delayed after the discovery of problems in the foundation of the soonto-be-converted Wolf Pub. The problem, a leaky floor, caused complications for the past several weeks, according to Patty Shore of Donahue Favret, the company renovating the area. She said workers have been stepping around puddles up to several inches deep. Tim Bamett, director of the Danna Center, said the problems were unexpected. "When we originally started the project, we did not have a water problem, but we ended up having to drill two holes to be able to pump water from the cleaning sinks back into the drain system of the Danna Center," he said. "Somehow or another — we can't tell you why — the water started filling in these holes." The construction company decided to fill the holes with sealant. That remedy kept water out of the holes but then it began seeping in through seams in the foundation, Bamett said. Water began appearing along the walls and where there had previously been cracks in the floor. Shore said they then decided to drill holes in the back utility room to relieve the pressure of water coming through the seams. The newly drilled holes were pumped out, and as long as the pump work, the water is contained. Shore said this is only a temporary FOUNDATION PROBLEMS A look at the problems that lie below the floor of the Underground. A The Underground's floor rests on a layer of sand approximately 10 inches deep. B Beneath the layer of sand, workers found a second, unexpected foundation, which may be explained by the original plans for the building which called for a bowling alley in that area. C Water, possibly from the construction of the new dorm, is seeping in between the floor of the Underground and the newly discovered sub-foundation. D Seams in the floor are allowing water to seep in from the foundation's sandy sublayer. UNDERGROUND SAGA Important dates in the Me of the Underground renovation project. OCTOBER 1987 — DECEMBER 1987 Original opening dates. Failed to open because of mechanical and electrical problems. JAN. 26,1996 Bids for the project go out later than expected. Contest to guess the opening date is begun. MARCH 13 Deadline for the contest to guess the opening date. Opening date projected as April 16. APRIL 17 Foundation problems delay Underground's grand opening for a third time. Staff photo by SARAH BARNETT Foundation problems in the Underground have resulted in the flooding of a utility room located in the back of the Underground. Efficiency desired in powering the campus By MICHAEL GIUSTI News Editor Power consumption is a concern unique among environmentalists. Not only is it beneficial for the environment to have a power-conscious public, but it is also makes good economic sense. Loyola spends more than 3 percent of its total operating budget on utilities alone. The university is not ignorant of the fact that power costs money. Both Loyola's Central Plant and Physical Plant have made strides in heating, cooling, lighting and O Greening up Loyola Part 4 ol 5 controlling and monitoring power consumption which should reduce consumption of electricity and natural gas. Perhaps the most progressive environmental step Loyola has taken is in its computer monitoring system. A group of computers in Central Plant monitors the output of the campus air conditioners and heatmg system. Central Plant engineers program times into the computer when people will be in certain. During holiday periods and at night, the system automatically slows the heating and cooling system for each area. "The chillers each have their own microprocessors to make sure they use only enough energy. ... That way they are not burning energy for no reason at all," said Jim Staff photo by PIERCE PRESELY Loyola's air conditioning keeps its cool with cooling towers on West Road.

I'm a beginner and used to use a 9' ft softtop. But today I tried 8'2", which is so hard to paddle out AND catching the wave. I don't think the board is too small for my size (5'9" and 164 p), since I saw some big guys use 7'ish shortboard. Or the difference lie in shortboard and longboard??
Btw, local wave is 2-4 ft.

I ordered this duvet cover because I did want to pay the expensive designer prices I had seen online. For the money this is perfect and the neutral color I ordered is true to the description. It is very soft and was delivered quickly.
Absolutely gorgeous duvet cover set. Great quality, beautiful rich color (I purchased "plum" color), very soft microfiber material, and easy care. And all for a great price. Could not get any better. I love it and would buy it again!
Seems to run a lil big but I washed once and it is a very soft duvet color with rich color. I selected the plum.
soft cover and fit perfectly. would prefer zipper to button but am still very happy
I always buy bedding and duvet covers off ****** and thought this may be a pleasant change, but I am very disappointed in my purchase, the stitching/threading was already coming apart when I put it on, I washed it one time and it seemed rough, and scratchy! After I washed it the color also faded on some corners even after it was dry, I'm very frustrated and feel like I got ripped off
very soft and high quality. Color is rich purple. i am happy with this purchase
I got the gold and am happy with the pillow covers. I like the duvet cover, but it is much smaller than the duvet, something that always bugs me. I don't know if there was a certain duvet I should have purchased for this set but I got the king, and the cover is more than ample for the duvet which I bought separately. The fabric is good quality.
I love it the Duvet cover and sheets. Will definitely be purchasing more.
Fit nicely over an oversized down comforter. The comforter had some old stains, which were covered even with the white duvet cover.
Easy to care for, and fits perfectly. Color has not faded at all after 6 washes. Bought this is I wouldn't have to pay for a hi thread count comforter, couldn't be happier.
