The Breast Imaging Center at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, Illinois, was designed around women's needs. From the relaxed decor in the waiting room to the spacious private lockers, our facility is designed to put women at ease.
The Rush Breast Imaging Center is also set apart by its ...
Convenience. Ask your physician for a referral, or call (312) 942-2027 for an appointment. You may not need a referral for a screening mammogram; check with your insurance provider. We do need a physician order for all diagnostic mammograms, ultrasounds, breast MRIs and interventional breast procedures.
Expertise. For early detection of breast cancer, regular screening mammograms for women over the age of 40 still remain the best option. But research shows that where you get your mammogram also makes a difference. Research shows that a mammogram is only as good as the radiologist who analyzes or reads it. That's why the Rush Breast Imaging Center is staffed by radiologists who specialize in breast imaging.
Excellence. Rush University Medical Center's Breast Imaging Center has been designated a breast imaging center of excellence by the American College of Radiology. A center of excellence designation is awarded to breast imaging centers that have demonstrated excellence in breast imaging by achieving accreditation in mammography, breast ultrasound and ultrasound-guided biopsy and stereotactic breast biopsy.
Responsiveness. Your primary care physician is key to your health. Our goal is to contact him or her with the results of your screening mammogram within a few days. Results of diagnostic mammograms are reported immediately after the procedure by a physician specialist.
Care. Our mammography technologists make every effort to minimize your discomfort and inconvenience. They make every effort to ensure an accurate X-ray on the first attempt.
The breast imaging team includes:
Board-certified radiologists who specialize in breast imaging. A mammogram is one of the most difficult X-rays to read. Breast tumors can appear in a number of forms and are often hard to detect among the normal dark and light areas of a mammogram. The accuracy of a mammogram ultimately comes down to the interpretative expertise of the radiologist who reads it. Learn more about the breast imaging center physicians:
Caring, experienced technologists. All of our technologists are mammography certified by ARRT, the American Registry of Radiological Technologists.

Tipper Gore, Hillary Clinton 2.0: The "Blame Video Games" Strategy
I was a little kid in elementary school with Tipper Gore and her army of shoulder-padded activist moms banned together to target rock and metal music over explicit subject matter. I remember how angry my older cousin was over it and an argument he once had with his dad about an album he wanted, an album that Tipper placed on her "Filthy Fifteen" list. It | Read More »

The envy of the automotive business, BMW offers one of the most comprehensive aftersales accessory range of any OE manufacturer. While many might have wheels or floor mats, the M Performance Parts catalog includes everything from body kits to wheels, suspension, brakes, interior pieces to exhaust, with software tuning on the way.
We don't need to tell you good news about this: not only do you get to hold onto your oh-so-important factory warranty while bringing your plain-Jane F30 closer to OEM-plus show-car status, but the quality of the parts is better than almost anything else on the market.
In the past, we've fitted M Performance Parts to a BMW 135i and E90 M3. Each time we were wowed by the perfect fit and can confirm everything is put together with the utmost care. Perhaps the only downside is the price, but you don't need us to remind you that you get what you pay for…
Following the introduction of the latest F30 3 Series sedan, BMW North America announced the release of all-new M Performance Parts for this car. Select items fit both 328i and 335i, and we had exclusive access to the first outfitted F30 to capture these photos.
It's worth noting that several of the exterior pieces are intended for cars fitted with the optional M Sport body panels, so these won't fit any of the early 3 Series in the US. As a result, some parts aren't available here yet, but expect them later this year. However, that still leaves a large number of tasty parts for your car.
Previously known simply as BMW Performance Parts, the new M Performance title indicates everything was developed in conjunction with BMW M GmbH. And you can see the difference – the body styling is more aggressive, it sees the introduction of matte carbon pieces and several new finishes among the other highlights.
All parts are available from your local BMW dealer or can be ordered online using the "Accessories" dropdown menu at bmwusa.com or by directly accessing bmwMperformance.com
Talking Head
We had a chance to sit down with Eric Riehle, Product Manager - Performance and Motorsports Parts at BMWNA, to get an idea of BMWs approach to individualization, and where it's going.
EC: How successful have BMW M Performance Parts been?
ER: We're very pleased with the success thus far. When we started in 2008, hardly anybody knew we even offered factory-backed performance mods. It took a few years to establish ourselves, but the popularity of the product line has grown tremendously. Our catalog of performance parts increases every year and we offer products for many new BMWs, including M models.
What feedback have you received from consumers and enthusiasts?
The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. We're known for offering innovative, premium products and there's an appreciation that customers have for performance parts developed and tested by the same BMW engineers who designed their vehicle. Customers also like that they receive added residual value on their lease if they have certain Performance Parts installed. This is a huge benefit considering some parts can decrease the value of the vehicle.
Do you anticipate popularity for the F30 parts?
I think this will be the most popular line yet. The new 3 Series is a great looking car that performs really well, but adding M Performance Parts transforms the vehicle. These parts are particularly aggressive in design and considerably enhance the driving experience.
What were BMW's goals in creating these factory-approved mods?
Our goal was to fill the void between original factory equipment and aftermarket performance parts. Customers had asked for performance parts that were covered under warranty and meet the same quality standards, and BMW M Performance Parts are the direct result of this.
Do you ever see ECU software and power-adders being made available in the us?

When eating is your job, dining out is always partly work, even when you're not doing it for the purpose of writing a review. There are worse ways to make a living.
The meals presented here are the 15 best I've had this year. They're a mix of review-dinners and some that I ate in my off hours. They were the best times I had in restaurants this year. Always, always the food mattered, but so did other things, like the company I was with and the score of the Orioles game.
A blow-out at Charleston
It helps sometimes, going in, to have a hypothesis. For a review dinner at Charleston, the Foreman Wolf flagship, it was this — the more you give, the more you'll get. This meant devoting the entire evening to dinner — reservations were for 5:30 p.m. — accepting the staff's counsel, and submitting to the restaurant's leisurely pace. When I left, a little after 9 p.m., the proof was in. If you let Charleston be Charleston, you'll be rewarded with the best dinner in the city.
First impressions at Cunningham's
Sometimes, before I visit a restaurant before a formal visit, I'll drop in to have a look around, gather up a few bites and gauge how long the restaurant will need before it's ready for a review. Three days after it opened, Cunningham's, a new restaurant from the Bagby Restaurant Group, was ready for its review. Located in the recently renovated Towson City Center, the restaurant is a full-on beauty. And the food we tried, appetizers mostly, were intriguing, fully considered and delicious. None of that "soft opening" or "we're working out the kinks." Cunningham's opened ready.
A traveling dinner in Fells Point
It was one of those Saturday nights when everyone was away or busy. That's the best, though, isn't it? Doing exactly as we please? I couldn't decide what would make me happier, dinner at Henninger's or at Peter's Inn. So I did both. Or rather, I had a seafood sampler at Henninger's bar and then walked over to Peter's and had a petit filet. And because this is Fells Point, a neighborhood full of talkers, I had good company, too.
A crab feast at Captain James Landing
I must have passed by this Canton crab house a thousand times before venturing in. Now it's my favorite place in Baltimore to get crabs. I only made it there once this past summer, for a birthday dinner, and it was one those magic nights, when it hits you how great Baltimore is. Captain James isn't quaint or adorable; it's just a pretty deck on the water's edge in the middle of the city, a few blocks away from a duckpin house.
The pleasure of discovery at Bottega
I think I had more positive response to my review of Bottega, a 20-or-so seat restaurant in Charles North, than to any other I filed this year. I know I enjoyed writing it. Bottega, for me, represented a crucial next step in Baltimore dining, when the principles underpinning the farm-to-table movement are taken for granted and raw ingredients are transformed into something different and special. It's a sweetheart of a restaurant, with a minuscule menu that changes by the week. I'll be back, often if I can manage it, but the first dinner here was a revelation.
An unsettling experience at the Other Corner Charcuterie Bar
One of the trickier reviews I had to write this year was for this new Hampden bar, a spinoff from the adjacent Corner BYOB. The problem was this: I loved the Other Corner from the moment I walked in, so much so that it felt personal. It hit me on an emotional level that I can only describe as deja vu. Had I been somewhere like the Other Corner before? I couldn't place it, though, and I began to think it might have been a place I had visited in my dreams or my imagination. The best I could do in the review was to admit this right away, and then get on with the particulars, like the best escargots I've ever had in Baltimore.
An ephemeral delight at Artifact Coffee
For a few months in the early part of the year, this daytime project from the owners of nearby Woodberry Kitchen was serving a very simple dinner. The menu, which would change every week, was take it or leave it: a single appetizer, main dish and dessert. One week, the main dish was a braised pork; the next it was a chicken stew, bathed in red wine. These were brought to the table in cast-iron pots, and you served yourself. It was all so lovely, and then, after a brief period when the menu expanded, the dinners stopped altogether. I hope they bring them back.
Taken by surprise at the Old Stein Inn
The Old Stein Inn is in Mayo, just outside Edgewater in Anne Arundel County. It's not a secret but it's not on the beaten path, either. The food here is outstanding. We had tender sauerbraten made from short ribs, a superior salad of watermelon and Black Forest ham, and juicy clams strips with a pretzel breading. Not every excursion pays off. But this one, on a hot summer Sunday, did. We couldn't wait to get back to tell people about it.
Feeling smart at Jack's Bistro
Every year, Jack's owners, Ted Stelzenmuller and Christie Smertycha, get on a plane and fly away, usually to Southeast Asia, which they adore. They come back refreshed and full of new ideas for the menu. This time, it was Malaysian laksa, a sweet-and-spicy noodle soup with shrimp and chicken, and a scorchingly spicy mussel salad with shallots, mint, lemon grass, red chiles and slices of jalapenos. The mussel salad was my favorite dish of the year, anywhere, and it made my feel smart for loving Jack's Bistro so much.

There can be more to a green lifestyle than swapping light bulbs and recycling. Take the sustainability-minded fashion at Substance in Over-the-Rhine. Many of the shop's brands (some of which are designed in-house) are created with organic or repurposed materials, or sourced from small-batch and fair trade manufacturers. You may recognize the Substance name from the original shop in Columbus's Short North district. Owner Christina Getachew relocated to Cincinnati in 2007 and soon started scouting sites to expand her store. She settled on Over-the-Rhine for the same reason that many new shops, restaurants, galleries, and businesses have ended up there: The neighborhood's artistic and collaborative atmosphere is downright catching. Getachew has installed a Design Lab in the Cincinnati location, where staffers repurpose old or out-of-season items into new (and in some cases, completely different) garments and accessories. Her most inspired idea is updating humble T-shirts into hand-loomed and crocheted scarves and clutches. Substance even provides co-ops to students in UC's College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning, who help to create the Design Lab garments. Naturally, the shop works with local designers in each market to stock both locations. "Selling locally-made products in our store is a big part of how we try to be sustainable," Getachew says. "And there is a lot of it here in Cincinnati." Substance, 1435 Main St., Over-the-Rhine, (513) 381-0545, shopsubstance.com

The $89 Energizer Dual Inductive Charger powers up compatible gadgets without the hassle of cords, but is a poor travel companion.

Generic or store-brand beauty products are gaining in popularity because of their lower cost. But are they as good as their brand-name counterparts?
Leesa Suzman Beauty Director, Good Housekeeping "You definitely want to go with a name brand when you're looking for something to be an anti-aging product or anything that is going to produce a benefit over time."
One category that clearly favored the brand name was anti-aging moisturizers. Olay Definity Intense Hydrating Cream beat out the generic version by more than 50%.
Leesa Suzman "The generic product didn't even contain the active ingredient that is the essential anti-aging ingredient in the Olay product."
But with a basic body lotion, the generic version tied with the brand name equivalent. That's because the simpler the ingredients, the easier it is for a private label brand to copy the formula.
Leesa Suzman "So it makes sense when all you are really looking to do is moisturize your skin that you would be able to find a copy that's actually pretty good."
And Good Housekeeping says it's worth trying a generic brand first because most big name stores will give you your money back if you don't like their product.

The rescue of three abducted women in Cleveland is bringing hope to thousands of families waiting for the same news about a loved one, including two Minnesota families who say their hope is reaffirmed.
FOX 9 News spoke with the parents of two children abducted just months apart 23 years ago.
"I want her home," said Susan Pagnac.
Pagnac and Marshal Midden still carry memories of their daughter, Amy, who was abducted from an Osseo gas station in August in 1989 -- but they never refer to her in the past tense.
"That is the biggest frustration as a parent," Pagnac confided. "That, 'Oh, it's been so long. You don't think they'll be alive?' Guess what? We do."
They say they're even more certain after hearing that three girls who were abducted and held captive for more than 10 years were found in Cleveland.
"I'm really happy and delighted these girls have been rescued, but you always wonder: When is that call going to be, 'Hey, we found Amy. We're bringing her home,'" Pagnac said.
That call would of course answer untold volumes of questions, beginning with who did it and what happened -- but Midden said rescues always make him wonder "what if?"
"Is she, or was she, with these people?" he asked.
Midden and Pagnac's daughter disappeared just two months before Minnesota's most famous child abduction took place.
"I think about him a lot," said Kevin Best, Jacob Wetterling's cousin.
Best and Wetterling were born just weeks apart, and both were 11 at the time Wetterling was taken. When Best learned of the events unfolding in Cleveland, he posted "Great news out of Cleveland … #HOPE" online.
"Maybe just something in the back of my mind pushed me to do that. I don't normally do that," Best said. "I'm pretty conservative, but maybe Jacob pushed me. I don't know."
Best keeps a picture of him at one of the candlelight vigils held for Wetterling. He's always grown up around hope, but he said it's certainly elevated by news like that coming out of Cleveland.
"I've kind of decided there's two kinds of hope for me," Best told FOX 9 News. "The hope your basketball team wins the evening game and there's a bigger hope in the grand scheme of things where stuff like this can happen -- and does happen. So, we're hoping that we get that call."
As the celebrations continue in Ohio, both Minnesota families are dreaming of the day they can celebrate too.
"It takes one person," Best said. "Someone saw something and acted on it. That's what we're hoping for."

With all due respect to everyone who posted their reviews: this color can only be described as dingy dirt. It is NOT creamy, it is not beige, it is dingy. The design is of a tightly wowen very dark tan color which is not bad, but the " cream" portion of the rug is not correct at all. please be careful when bying. The quality of the rug is good, well made. No odor at all. Not heavy, corners well finished and straight. Would have been one gorgeous rug if it didn't look like it was time to clean it. " O" gave me a hard time returning it because it was " subjective" and buyers remorce. Apparently if they sent a blue one that would be an error. For that reason: please make sure you are aware of the color discrepancy.
The rug is very nice, but it is much darker than the picture. The rug is darker ivory and the swirls are brown.
Overall, we are happy with the product, but a final judgement will be reserved after one year of use. Sure it looks good today, we shall see after one year or more.
This is a really pretty rug. It's very plush and comfy to lay on. It also does not shed at all! Looks really pretty with our ivory leather, and then I can use seasonal colors to accent the room!
Color was accurate and the rug is soft and feels good under your feet.
Ordered this for our living room on our hardwood floors to cozy up the room. It's not very thick or soft. It's design is pretty but not super happy with the product. We are going to move it in our master under the sectional there where the foot traffic is much less. Don't recommend in high traffic areas.
pretty, plush, feels great against the feet, excellent value.
Just had new wood floors put down and needed for my dining room. Wasn't sure how it would be and so far loving it. This is the second rug I've bought through Overstock and am completely happy.
Bought this rug for my daughter and her husband. They love it say's it's very soft and looks great in there living room. Their little dog loves it to rolls around and sleeps on it all the time. Think it was a great value and worth the money.
I have been looking at this item for a while then the special offer was attached...oooh I just had to have it!!..and WOW! it arrived at my door in short order! Once I opened the packed and laid it out on my deep brown bamboo flooring...it was magical!!!! I will probably get the matching runner and next smaller size to my 5'3" x 7'8" beauty! it feels so soft and warm under foot, even my boyfriend commented how uniquely special this rug looks on floor!......... .....just beautifully special! glad I have this rug, glad, glad, glad!

By Pete Boulay
Minnesota has an amazing mix of weather. The air temperature, wind, clouds, and other weather factors vary day by day, and sometimes hour by hour. Our state sits right on the 45th line of latitude—halfway between the North Pole and the equator. Minnesota is also hundreds of miles away from any ocean. Without an ocean's natural temperature control, Minnesota air temperatures can reach extremes of hot and cold.
Television meteorologists (weather forecasters) talk about "high" and "low" pressure. Where there is high pressure, the air tends to be dry. Because clouds don't develop in dry air, high pressure usually means sunny weather. With low pressure, the air is moist and promotes cloud development. If enough clouds get together, we might see rain or snow.
Areas of high and low pressure are pushed along by something called the jet stream. Think of a great river of fast-moving air high above the ground. Our weather today may have been over Colorado two days ago, and tomorrow the jet stream will carry it over Illinois.
The air the jet stream brings to Minnesota has the flavor of where the air came from. Arctic air from northern Canada tends to be cool and dry, while air from the Gulf of Mexico is warm and moist. The boundary between air masses is called a front. A cold front is the edge of cool air that is moving into warm air. A warm front is warm air trying to replace cool air.
Taking a bike ride on a trail, swimming or fishing at a lake cabin, or camping in a state park—summertime is when the outdoors comes alive.
In July the average high temperature climbs to the upper 70s in northern Minnesota and the lower 80s in the south. It can still be chilly along the shores of Lake Superior.
Occasionally a heat wave pushes temperatures over the 100-degree mark. July 29, 1917, was a hot and stifling day in Beardsley. Corn crops were withering and potato plants wilted in dusty gardens. When J.L. Fitzgerald opened the door of his weather instrument shelter, he noted a temperature of 114 F—a state record. Nineteen years later, July 6, 1936, Moorhead tied the record.
Minnesota can be very humid. The dew point—a measure of moisture in the air—can reach the tropical 70s and sometimes even 80 degrees. This happens in summer because warm air holds more water vapor than cool air does.
Moisture-laden air can help cause some heavy downpours. The more moisture, the greater the chance of jumbo raindrops reaching the ground.
The most rain officially recorded in 24 hours in Minnesota was 10.84 inches, July 22, 1972, at Fort Ripley.
The best weather. People often ask the State Climatology Office to help them choose the best date to plan an outdoor activity. The records show mid–August has the best weather. The peak heat of the summer has usually passed, and the chance of rain is lower than it was in June and July. Of course, a dry day is never a sure thing in Minnesota.
As the State Fair sells its last Pronto Pup, summer begins to draw to a close. In the fall, nights become frosty, days grow shorter, and leaves on the trees turn brilliant colors.
Early fall is one of the most beautiful times in Minnesota. The peak of the fall leaf color occurs between mid–September and late September in the Boundary Waters and along the North Shore. Color peaks in late September to early October over central Minnesota, and early to mid–October in the Twin Cities and southeastern Minnesota.
The temperature cools down in late fall. The average October high temperature is in the mid-50s at Grand Rapids, and in the low 60s at Winona. Most places in Minnesota will have the first few flakes of snow in the air sometime in October, but the first inch of snow usually doesn't fall until November.
When you think of winter in Minnesota, you might think about going sledding, skiing, snowmobiling, or ice fishing. You might also think of shivering in the freezing cold air for which Minnesota is famous.
The coldest temperature recorded in Minnesota since 1891 occurred on the morning of Feb. 2, 1996. Throngs of reporters and TV cameras surrounded Kathleen Hoppa's thermometer in rural Tower: The temperature had dropped to a bone-chilling 60 degrees below zero. It made front-page news across the state, with newspaper headlines usually reserved for events of great importance. It was important to people in Minnesota!
Blizzards. Winter has a dangerous side. In a blizzard, snow falls fast and furious, driven by powerful winds. Besides blinding snow, extreme cold makes blizzards dangerous. A blizzard is most deadly when people aren't expecting it. For example, on Nov. 11, 1940, the famous Armistice Day blizzard struck. The weather was mild in the morning before the blizzard. It was a holiday so many people were outside, away from the safety of their homes. Suddenly temperatures dropped, and rain quickly turned into snow. Many duck hunters and other people were stranded outdoors in below-freezing temperatures. Forty-nine people died in the storm.
Another memorable snowstorm was the Halloween blizzard of 1991. That storm heaped 28.4 inches of snow on the Twin Cities. In Duluth the snow piled up an impressive 36.9 inches.
Floods. While many people hope for a white Christmas, heavy snow on the ground in late winter can lead to spring flooding. In the fall of 1996, many places in northwestern Minnesota had heavy rainfall. Then, in the winter, some of these places had near-record snowfalls. In the spring snow melted rapidly, and more heavy rain and snow fell. All of this weather led to huge, destructive floods on the Red River.
People who live in a cold winter climate appreciate the warmer days of spring. Snow and ice gradually melt. The ice usually leaves the bigger lakes in southern Minnesota by late March or the beginning of April. Gunflint Lake in the far north has one of the state's latest average ice-out dates—around May 7.
Spring also heralds the severe weather season. In April the National Weather Service hosts Severe Weather Awareness Week to remind people what to do if a tornado or other harsh weather suddenly strikes.
Whirlwinds. Tornadoes have been reported in Minnesota for centuries. On April 19, 1820, a tornado struck the camp that would eventually become Fort Snelling, near the Mall of America.
When cold, dry air clashes with warm, sticky air, powerful thunderstorms can form. When strong winds twist rising hot air, a funnel can whirl up from the ground or down from the storm cloud. Winds inside a tornado can twist faster than any hurricane—more than 300 miles per hour.
Meteorologists rank tornadoes by the Fujita Scale, created by tornado guru Tetsuya Fujita. The scale ranges from F0 (winds of 40 to 72 miles per hour) to F5 (261 to 318 miles per hour).
Minnesota has only had seven F5 tornadoes out of the 1,356 tornadoes reported from 1820 to 2002. The last F5 tornado to hit the state devastated the small town of Chandler on June 16, 1992.
Hail. Some storms bring damaging straight-line winds and large hail. On July 4, 1966, Mother Nature provided fireworks of her own when a storm pelted the Detroit Lakes area with the largest hailstones ever officially recorded in the state. The hail was 12 inches in circumference. That's as big as a softball or grapefruit. Hail the size of baseballs fell on the Twin Cities suburb of Eagan on April 18, 2002.
Pete Boulay, assistant state climatologist for the DNR State Climatology Office, loved to watch weather as a kid.

Look! Anthropologie Uses Chalkboard Paint
Anthropologie has a bookish theme for spring. We've never seen chalkboard paint used...
on such a grand scale (we're missing the shot where the entire wall is covered) with painstakingly straight and level drawings of bookshelves with equally straight books. If we didn't already have so many real books we'd be all over this for our own home. We also like that they used the classic green version of chalkboard paint and not the updated or modern gray/black that we've seen a lot of. Check out some other uses for chalkboard paint and even some chalkboard vases to get your fix.

Ugh enough with that "offbeat" idea of putting graphics where actual furniture/fittings/accessories could have been. Graphics (stick-on vinyls and otherwise, like in this example) of lampshades or a standing light fixture beside a reading chair, or pots and pans in front of a crockery cabinet, or toiletries right above the sink are really stale. I think it's really silly-looking. I cannot explain it (and am certainly quite puzzled by my behaviour myself), but I feel really annoyed every time I see another example of this terrible idea.
Can chalkboard paint be used in the bathroom?
I saw this in the downtown Seattle store...so cool, and apparently painted on canvas. brilliant.
Amen, siongchinchan! I think this idea is rapidly becoming the bird silhouette of 2008. It's maybe even more contagious. I do like the green chalkboard paint, though, and this particular use of it doesn't grate on my nerves as much as decals do. Still, I'd much rather see something else drawn on it.
in the Anthropologie I work at they cut some old books in half and glued the bookend on some of the chalk outlines
I used chalkboard paint on an old entertainment center. Photos at my Flickr account.
I think it would work in bathroom that didn't get very damp.
mdeathstar, you did a GREAT job with that entertainment center!!

here she is! NISHIKI Cross Road, put toghether by the awesome dudes at Sportson Södermalm's new store.
on the back she's carrying the high heels i bought on ellie's advice (an exact copy of what she was wearing on her feet, yay)
this is me, presenting the "outfit of the day"… or maybe not.
… might aswell give away a smile as i was surely happy. the road back didn't start easily. It was late afternoon so i didn't want to ride the whole way. But SJ, the major train company in sweden, doesn't allow bicycles on their trains. its a truly bummer (especially as most other slow trains allow it in Europe, c'mon!) i was still giving it a shot, as the train was almost empty and i was only going one
station anyway (to märsta), but nah, someone announced in the speakers that "bicycles are NOT allowed on this train"(that was to me, ah) - so i had to step off (after a very bitter controllant had told me off!)
so there i was, back on the platform again, with a ticket i cudnt use??
big thanks tho to the super nice train driver who let my bicycle stay in the locomotive!'in märsta, he carried my bicycle over the rail and onto the platform so i would get it! in every situation there are great people, that is the lesson to learn.
when i arrived to märsta i was praised by a dude in the street who was so amazed over that i'd stepped off in märsta to bike to uppsala - when i could just take the train all the way. he kept repeating how stoked he was and that i always would get free coffee in the café he works in. (if you're reading this, sorry for not coming by yet, i've been so busy!) "so! are you really going to BIKE?????? wow… why????"
the distance were talking about is 40 km, but he was still totally stoked.
the answer to the why:
it's just so nice to feel the breeze and the sun and to stop and look at the things that happens while ure driving by or sitting on a train stuck behind glass, such as a horse baby having fun in the sunny afternoon mud!
and 2 hours later… we we're HOME!!

What do you plan for your New Years Resolutions, and how do you plan to make them become your reality in 2014?
While blogging recently on this topic, I came across a cartoon, of two dogs sitting side by side discussing New Years resolutions.
First Dog: What is a New Years Resolution?
Second Dog: Sort of like a TO DO list for the first week of January, next year!
New Years Resolutions are apparently held in quite low regard, yet they hold such promise. They are the plans we make for the coming year. I looked up the statistics for the success of New Years Resolutions and found that only 8% of people who set them succeed, 24% NEVER succeed, 49% make a start but fail when obstacles get in the way.
These are VERY similar statistics to regular goalsetting.
My question is, what do you do, to make yourself one of the 8% that succeed with their New Years Resolutions?
My strategy is this: I have regular goals set out, written and planned, all year, regardless of the date. However, towards the end of each month and especially at the end of the year, we have a review session where we look at our progress on the goals in play, and the goals we plan for the coming year. At that point, we decide on our priorities and where our focus should be for the coming year.
This becomes our New Years Resolution list. Perhaps not as sexy as the scroll of paper some folks bring out on New Years Eve to spill champagne on, but it works for us.
I guess a better name for New Years Resolutions would be "Next Years Plans, Goals and Dreams".
What do you think? I blogged about it here http://lifechange90.wordpress.com/, but it has only raised more questions!
Please tell me, how do you plan to make your New Years Resolutions become a reality for you in 2014?
Do you have a system, or a strategy in place already?
Do you have any ideas what your resolutions will be yet? If not, when do you write them?
The research I did for my blog only seemed to point to an area of global disaster, but the concept of renewal at such an auspicious time of year is so powerful! How can we make this work?

Despite the welcome wet spring, rainfall in our Sonoma County vineyards remained below average. Flowering occurred in late May, during ideal weather; we thinned the crop to assure intense color and flavor. A mild summer ripened the grapes for a mid-September harvest. Picked by taste, each parcel fermented separately on its natural yeasts. For full extraction of color and tannin, the fermenters were pumped over for seven days, on average, before pressing. Malolactic fermentation finished by November, allowing early assemblage. Once in barrel, the wine was racked off the sediment every two months to clarify naturally. After ten months, tannins have softened. Fresh berry fruit and barrel spice give the Three Valleys immediate appeal, and it will be most enjoyable over the next three to five years.

A 17-year-old girl was taken to the hospital Saturday after she lost — but then regained — consciousness after a tubing accident on the Provo River.
Sgt. Spencer Cannon of the Utah County Sheriff's Office said it was unclear what exactly happened to the girl because she had become separated from a group she was tubing with before the accident. It was possible that she may have hit her head, Cannon said.

|Post a Comment
Sometime at about 4 p.m. however, the group found her lying unconscious near the shore, on the side of the river farthest from the Provo Canyon Road.
She was found about 13 miles up the canyon, Cannon said. Search and rescue crews from Utah County retrieved the girl and brought to the other side. She was then taken to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center by an ambulance provided by North Fork Fire Department.
By the time she was put into the ambulance the girl was conscious again. Her condition after arriving at the hospital, however, was not known Saturday evening, Cannon said.

STEVENS POINT, WI (WSAU) - If you want to get out and enjoy the weather, you can get out and run as part of a benefit for the Boston bombing victims.
The committee that organizes the Point Bock Run in Stevens Point is having an untimed non-competitive walk and run later today starting at 6:00 p.m. at Iverson Park.
Point Brewery's Marketing Director Julie Barrenkott says any funds raised will go to One Fund Boston, which is assisting Boston area people affected by the bombing. "There's two different routes. there's a running route of 3.5 miles, It's untimed and non-competitive. Basically, you can just bring a donation and the Point Bock Run will match all contributions."
The run has a 3.5 mile course using the Green Circle, Patch Street, the Michigan Avenue underpass, and Dixon Street back to Iverson Park. The walking route is one and a half miles.
Motorists on Patch Street, Dixon Street, and the Michigan Avenue railroad underpass will need to pay attention and watch for runners this evening.

Effect of normal pressure on the critical compressive and shear stress of curved sheet
Date: March 1, 1945
Creator: Rafel, Norman & Sandlin, Charles W , Jr
Description: Results are presented of tests of two sets of 20 curved-sheet specimens to determine the effect of normal pressure on the critical compressive and shear stress of curved sheets. It was found that normal pressure raised the critical compressive and shear stress of curved sheets except when outward bulging occurred in compression, in which case the critical stress was lowered by normal pressure.

The Measurement of Fuel-Air Ratio by Analysis of the Oxidized Exhaust Gas
Date: October 1, 1943
Creator: Memm, J. Lawrence, Jr.
Description: An investigation was made to determine a method of measuring fuel-air ratio that could be used for test purposes in flight and for checking conventional equipment in the laboratory. Two single-cylinder test engines equipped with typical commercial engine cylinders were used. The fuel-air ratio of the mixture delivered to the engines was determined by direct measurement of the quantity of air and of fuel supplied and also by analysis of the oxidized exhaust gas and of the normal exhaust gas. Five fuels were used: gasoline that complied with Army-Navy Fuel Specification, No. AN-VV-F-781 and four mixtures of this gasoline with toluene, benzene, and xylene. The method of determining the fuel-air ratio described in this report involves the measurement of the carbon-dioxide content of the oxidized exhaust gas and the use of graphs or the presented equation. This method is considered useful in aircraft, in the field, or in the laboratory for a range of fuel-air ratios from 0.047 to 0.124.

Design of power-plant installations pressure-loss characteristics of duct components
Date: June 1, 1944
Creator: Henry, John R
Description: A correlation of what are believed to be the most reliable data available on duct components of aircraft power-plant installations is presented. The information is given in a convenient form and is offered as an aid in designing duct systems and, subject to certain qualifications, as a guide in estimating their performance. The design and performance data include those for straight ducts; simple bends of square, circular, and elliptical cross sections; compound bends; diverging and converging bends; vaned bends; diffusers; branch ducts; internal inlets; and an angular placement of heat exchangers. Examples are included to illustrate methods of applying these data in analyzing duct systems. (author).

The conformal transformation of an airfoil into a straight line and its application to the inverse problem of airfoil theory
Date: December 1, 1944
Creator: Mutterperl, William
Description: A method of conformal transformation is developed that maps an airfoil into a straight line, the line being chosen as the extended chord line of the airfoil. The mapping is accomplished by operating directly with the airfoil ordinates. The absence of any preliminary transformation is found to shorten the work substantially over that of previous methods. Use is made of the superposition of solutions to obtain a rigorous counterpart of the approximate methods of thin-airfoils theory. The method is applied to the solution of the direct and inverse problems for arbitrary airfoils and pressure distributions. Numerical examples are given. Applications to more general types of regions, in particular to biplanes and to cascades of airfoils, are indicated. (author).

Aerodynamic tests of a full-scale TBF-1 aileron installation in the Langley 16-foot high-speed tunnel
Date: December 1, 1944
Creator: Becker, John V
Description: The failure of wing panels on a number of TBF-1 and TBM-1 airplanes in flight has prompted several investigations of the possible causes of failure. This report describes tests in the Langley 16-foot high-speed tunnel to determine whether these failures could be attributed to changes in the aerodynamic characteristics of the ailerons at high speeds. The tests were made of a 12-foot-span section including the tip and aileron of the right wing of a TBF-1 airplane. Hinge moments, control-link stresses due to aerodynamic buffeting, and fabric-deflection photographs were obtained at true airspeeds ranging from 110 to 365 miles per hour. The aileron hinge-moment coefficients were found to vary only slightly with airspeed in spite of the large fabric deflections that developed as the speed was increased. An analysis of these results indicated that the resultant hinge moment of the ailerons as installed in the airplane would tend to restore the ailerons to their neutral position for all the high-speed flight conditions covered in the tests. Serious aerodynamic buffeting occurred at up aileron angles of -10 degrees or greater because of stalling of the sharp projecting lip of the Frise aileron. The peak stresses set up in the aileron control linkages ...

Torsion tests of stiffened circular cylinders
Date: May 1, 1944
Creator: Moore, R L
Description: The design of curved sheet panels to resist shear involves a consideration of several factors: the buckling resistance of the sheet, the stress at which buckling becomes permanent, and the strength which may be developed beyond the buckling limit by tension-field action. Although some experimental as well as theoretical work has been done on the buckling and tension-field phases of this problem, neither of these types of action appears to be very well understood. The problem is of sufficient importance from the standpoint of aircraft design, it is believed, to warrant further experimental investigation. This report presents the results of the first series of torsion tests of stiffened circular cylinders to be completed in connection with this study at Aluminum Research Laboratories. (author).

Wind-tunnel calibration and correction procedures for three-dimensional models
Date: October 1, 1944
Creator: Swanson, Robert S
Description: Detailed methods are presented for determining the corrections to results from wind-tunnel tests of three-dimensional models for the effects of the model-support system, the nonuniform air flow in the tunnel, and the tunnel walls or jet boundaries. The procedures for determining the corrections are illustrated by equations and the required tests are discussed. Particular attention is given to the parts of the procedures dealing with drag measurements. Two general methods that are used for determining and applying the corrections to force tests are discussed. Some discussion is also included of the correction procedures to be used for wake survey tests. The methods described in this report apply only to tests at subcritical speeds. (author).

SHEBOYGAN, Wis.(WHBL) - A Sheboygan man is dead after being stabbed in the back during a disturbance in the city of Sheboygan on Saturday afternoon. Sheboygan Police said it happened shortly before 4:30 in the 1400 block of South 12th Street. Captain Jim Veeser said officers responded and found 41 year old Nicholas Lehrke with a stab wound to the back. He was taken to Sheboygan Memorial where he died of the injury. Veeser said a 21 year old Oshkosh man was arrested at the scene and is in the county jail facing a possible charge of 2nd degree reckless homicide. Veeser said the incident began with an altercation between Lehrke and another roommate outside of the apartment building. He said that's when the suspect allegedly intervened and stabbed Lehrke. Veeser said alcohol may be involved and the investigation is continuing.

Land for Peace in the Battle Over Millennia-Old Palestinian Farming Terraces
In the village of Battir, green ideals and cultural heritage override detailed plans for Israel's separation wall
Yuval Peled, director of planning at the INPA, said he headed a study on cultural landscapes in Israel, completed two years ago. "Our perspective on the works of man in nature is changing," he said. In past projects, including the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv railway extension, "we could have done better. But now we are in a situation where we understand more."
Asked about other cases, like Walajeh, Peled said, "In Walajeh, we were alone with the Ministry of Defense. But in Battir, there were many more people involved. We could influence more."
This affidavit was one of four expert opinions that contended the fence would decimate the unique farming system. Alongside the legal struggle, FoEME brought Israelis to hike in the forested hills around Battir and to enjoy an afternoon concert by Israeli singer Achinoam Nini in view of the terraces. Ultimately, the court ruled in early May that the defense ministry must explain "why should the route of the Separation Barrier in the Battir village area not be nullified or changed, and alternately why should the barrier not be reconfigured."
Bromberg sees the story of Battir as an unadulterated success. "It's a precedent that security doesn't automatically trump," he said, speaking of the court's consideration. "The court is saying security issues must be considered but must balance with other considerations."
Mayor Bader, too, said he felt an enormous sense of relief. "Now I feel better because they avoid the idea to make a closure for our lands and destroy this heritage site," he said. "Also we have more supporters from both sides, from the Israelis, Palestinians, and all over the world."
But other Palestinian environmentalists had mixed feelings. In the Bethlehem offices of the Applied Research Institute–Jerusalem, researcher Jane Hilal said the case of Battir was problematic. About 170 villages have been compromised by the barrier, she said. In the northern West Bank, the barrier cuts roughly through one forest and leaves another forest entirely in Israeli hands. A real victory would be to remove the wall altogether. "It's not a success story," Hilal said. "If they want to not destroy the terraces, they will destroy other people's land."
Sfard, who also litigated the Bil'in case, said he sued the state in 2003 and claimed the whole barrier was illegal. The court ruled that any objections would have to be on a case-by-case basis, he said. "There were about 100 cases on different segments of the barrier," he said. "There were about six or seven victories. But in general, the route of barrier has changed considerably from a route that should have encircled 20 percent of the West Bank to a route that today encircles 8.5 percent."
Sfard said he doubted he could revisit older cases in court and move the barrier in the name of environmental and cultural heritage now. In Walajeh, Ahmad Shehadeh, who coordinates a local theater, said that "the wall is making us feel like we are animals living in a zoo." But, he said, he had no hard feelings for Battir's residents. "These are my people there, my friends and my brothers," he said.
For now in Battir the feeling is euphoria. The Defense Ministry has until July 2 to submit a new idea for securing the border that will not destroy Battir. Residents are getting ready for the annual summer eggplant festival. The Palestinian Authority has placed Battir on a tentative list seeking UNESCO World Heritage Site status. Bromberg says that the Israelis on the other side of the border, where the terraces continue, are considering submitting a joint request to the U.N. body, turning a thorny dispute into a platform for cooperation.
Thinking about the rare success in Battir, Bromberg said other failed attempts to protect land from the barrier are "extraordinarily tragic. It's a failure of those responsible for nature protection not to have raised their voices earlier, but thank goodness they did it now. We could have lost Battir."

But we also know that each player is different and blessed with unique attributes. So we've put our heads together, had a chat with the experts and come up with a guide covering the two most deadly strikes.
Guide to swerve:
1. It sounds crazy, but imagine the ball has an equator going round it.
2. Aim to strike one side of the ball along the equator.
3. If you want the ball to swerve right, aim for the left of the ball and vice versa if you want to the ball to swerve left.
4. In your run up, make sure your toes are pointed downwards, the non kicking foot is beside the ball and make contact with the outside of the ball.
5. Follow through and lock your ankles to maximise spin.
6. Practice, practice, practice!
Guide to power:
1. It's all about the laces!
2. Run up with your head over the ball
3. Bring your non kicking foot beside the ball
4. Strike right through the middle of ball with your laces and land on your non kicking foot
5. Get your boots on and repeat!
Swerve or power – what makes the perfect free kick? You can tell us using the PUMA Life Scoreboard!
Life's more fun when you're keeping score!

I've been reading this thread with sympathy, grateful that it wouldn't affect us. Now DH tells me that they are predicting gusts here of over fifty mph tomorrow. I know from experience that that is enough to throw us off the grid for days. We are pretty well prepared but I know I'll be out looking for something we need in the morning. I live in O.H.I.O., for crying out loud....

Review: One Piece: Pirate Warriors stays faithful to the series, but suffers from repetition
A game based on Japanese anime can be really weird if you've never watched an episode. A friend of mine played a bit of One Piece: Pirate Warriors and went, "Why does this kid have the ability to go Dhalsim on everyone with his limbs?" I then went on to explain the purpose of gum gum fruit, and he was still confused. Later on, he'd say stuff like... Read More

It is *** awesome. Some minor things I didnt like, but easy fixes. That said, Ive been in love with this browser since verion 5 or so...
Hmmm, edit doesnt seem to work. I was going to add, that as always, Opera comes out on top as far as customisability goes. The multitude of now available extensions doesnt hurt either (though I use none, just a few custom userscripts). I have to say, for me, some of the newer web-dev stuff is the most interesting, doing that I do it quite a bit.
Can anyone tell me why to get this browser over Firefox? This is the first time i have even heard of Opera. So if anyone has tried it and would compare their personal experience, i would sure appreciate it!:)
Yeah zack. opera is just another internet browser. The real difference is now its more stable. if you have ever used firefox you know that the settings are rather hard to find the first time, also the whole things freaks out about half the time when your just browsing around. Opera is a nice little internet browser that fast and intuitive. it grabs a tiny section of the web browsing market but with this last new addition it really looks like some great new features and maybe little more of the depth we were looking for in this browser will finally come.
i am always looking for faster products! the stabiblebility is a bonus for sure!sounds like an awesome product with its new upgrades!
Nice to see Opera adding some new features including the 64-bit version, which even IE9 or FF hasn't got right (although it was plenty fast as it is). I'll update to 12 when it's out of beta...
@ZTimpson, browser choice is really a personal preference. I also have Firefox, but I find myself using Opera and Chromium more often these days. I like Opera because it's really lightweight and on my computer (a sort of high-end AMD build), runs much faster and more stable than FF, no adobe flash crashes for me at least.
If you're an add-on junkie or you like extremely customizing your browser, Opera is not for you (although with this version it may change). But lack of add-ons never stopped anyone from using Chrome.
They've been around for a while, and some of the features you enjoy in other browsers (such as tabbed browsing, among others that escape me now) were actually pioneered by the Norwegians. Give it a whirl and see if you like.
right on thanks
Looks nice I downloaded it and it seems to be streamlined I like the clear/white layout to I will check it out more later.
Neat, although i don't use opera its nice to have the option now that it has more added features to suite me. I still like the classic looks better :P
