A well-known TV host's love of doughnuts has led to national exposure for a Portland business.
TV host Anderson Cooper and Leigh Kellis, who owns the Holy Donut in Portland, during a taping of the "Anderson Live" show in New York City. The show featuring Kellis and her doughnuts airs at 3 p.m. Monday.
Photo by Joshua Edlund
Leigh Kellis, owner of Holy Donut on Park Avenue, said producers of the "Anderson Live" holiday special featuring Anderson Cooper wanted to include doughnuts on the show to please Gayle King, co-host of the show and Oprah Winfrey's best friend.
They did a Google search and turned up Kellis and her potato-based gourmet doughnuts.
"They said, 'Could you bring us some doughnuts?' " Kellis said. "I said, 'Yes. When and where?' "
During the show's segment on unusual holiday foods, Kellis makes a cameo appearance with her bacon cheddar and potato doughnuts.
"I was in Manhattan on Wednesday for the filming," she said. "For us Mainers, that's pretty exciting. They gave us the VIP treatment."
The show will air at 3 p.m. Monday on Portland's Fox affiliate, WPFO-TV (Channel 23).
Tom MacArthur, general manager of WPFO, confirmed that Kellis and her doughnuts will appear on Monday's show.
Other varieties served at the Holy Donut are sweet potato ginger, dark chocolate sea salt and pomegranate. The bakery uses Maine potatoes, local eggs and dairy, fruit- and vegetable-based dyes, and natural sweeteners.
Since the shop opened nine months ago, the Holy Donut has had positive reviews, including in The Boston Globe.
Kellis said there is a downside to all the media attention.
"The only problem is, we haven't figured out mail order yet," Kellis said. "It's $100 to overnight a fresh product.
So far, we've only had one person pay $120, to overnight a dozen doughnuts to Pennsylvania."
Even without business from other states, the shop is doing a brisk trade.
"We're making them as fast as we can today and selling them as fast as we can make them," Kellis said Friday. She expected that the shop would make and sell 1,000 doughnuts for the day.

Home Ownership in London
Sharetobuy.com/firststeps is the official portal of FIRST STEPS, the Mayor of London's affordable home ownership scheme.
Shared Ownership Case Studies
Latest News
New 95% Exclusive Shared Ownership Mortgage
15th April 2014
Share to Buy is pleased to launch a brand new 95% shared ownership mortgage
We are confident that this is one of the most competitive products available for shared ownership with a 5% deposit and it is only available via Share to Buy's mortgage team, it's NOT available on the high street.
FIRST STEPS Homes Show: latest news
7th March 2014
We are able to confirm it now looks like we will have a total of 30 stands on display at the FIRST STEPS Homes Show on April 12th, which Share to Buy is once again hosting in central London.
This is a FREE event formally endorsed by the Mayor of London which includes a whole range of London-based affordable housing providers PLUS a broker area with around 30 mortgage specialists on hand for a one-to-one discussion with attendees. This compares to 23 stands and 12 brokers last year. To read more about the show and register click here
Welcome to sharetobuy.com
Sharetobuy.com aims to provide a 'one stop shop' to access the main government-backed affordable housing schemes. If you are looking to buy in London, we are the official portal of First Steps, the Mayor of London's affordable home ownership brand. You can use our site to search for shared ownership property across England and you can also search for and compare shared ownership mortgages.
What exactly do you mean by 'shared-ownership'?
Some customers understandably assume that the phrase 'shared ownership refers to private individuals clubbing together to buy a home with a joint mortgage. In fact, the main government backed affordable home ownership scheme is called 'shared ownership' because you share ownership with a housing association. This scheme is also referred to as 'part buy part rent' because you buy a share in a property owned by a housing association, starting from 25%, and pay rent on the remainder at an affordable rate.
What are the main affordable housing schemes you show on the website?
On our property portal we advertise the two main Government schemes: First Steps in London, for which we are the official portal; and 'Homebuy', which is the name for affordable housing in the rest of England. Specific schemes within London and outside include shared ownership/part rent part buy (as described); shared equity (inc Firstbuy, where you purchase a home outright but receive an equity loan for a large part of your deposit); and rental products including Rent to buy and Intermediate Rent. See our getting started section for more information.
What properties are available?
Most properties available to buy or rent through an affordable scheme, including both First Steps and Homebuy, are new build or recently new. However, the fact that shared ownership properties can be sold on in a process called a 'resale', where the existing share is resold, means that it is possible to part buy a second hand property. There is not currently any national scheme for purchasing any property on the open market in some form of 'affordable' fashion.
Where can I find more information?
Sharetobuy.com is primarily a 'search' site for affordable housing, incorporating a property pool, a mortgage comparison site and a shared ownership specialist solicitor panel that are all easy to navigate. For more detailed general information on the various affordable housing schemes, visit our sister website www.shared-ownership.org.uk.

Pandora's easy-to-use interface and massive music library make the app a must-download for music fans with Windows phones.
Pricing not available
Pandora Radio is not only easy to use, but it's also scary good at getting to know your musical taste. Download it and start creating stations as soon as possible.

It doesn't offer live radio streams or non-music options, but iTunes Radio is the best way to listen to programmed radio on iOS.

Sony, Warner, and Universal argue that under state law, the music streaming service must pay license fees for songs recorded before 1972.
iTunes Radio will spur more people to digital radio from broadcast radio, not from Pandora to Apple, the company's financial chief says. However, Pandora's international horizon remains dim by comparison.
Apple's streaming music service notched 11 million unique listeners in just five days. If it can maintain that pace, it will topple Pandora from its seat at the top of the Internet radio market. But that's a big "if."
The Internet's biggest radio service hires Sara Clemens, a former Microsoft executive with lots of international credentials on her resume, as its chief strategy officer.
The Internet's biggest radio service reported a smaller-than-predicted loss in the first quarter, but guidance -- dampened by investments in its advertising abilities -- stoked investors to sell.
The Internet's biggest radio service had its biggest quarterly earnings since its IPO in 2011, but investors were dismayed that the windfall would be short-lived, based on Pandora's Q1 loss forecast.

Nyko didn't beat Sony to a rumble controller release in Japan but they sure came out with one before the US release. The Zero Wireless controller for the PlayStation 3 has been talked about for a long time now by Nyko and I've seen it a few conventions but it's finally released here in the States. It comes in three flavors and it does rumble in your hands so let's take a closer look and see if it's a good third party controller to pick up for your PlayStation 3.
Let's start off with what it comes with. The Zero Wireless controller for the PlayStation 3 comes equipped with a rechargeable battery, a USB dongle, a very long USB to mini USB cable, and a AA battery pack. One nice thing about the Zero Wireless controller is that you can use either the rechargeable battery pack or any AA battery available. Unlike the Sony controller, you don't have to plug it in if your battery dies as you can continue on with 2 AA batteries at hand. If your rechargeable battery does die out, you can still plug it in with the included USB cable so that you can charge and play at the same time. When I mean a long USB cable I mean a LOOONG USB cable. Compared to the Microsoft Xbox 360 Play and Charge Kit cable, the Zero Wireless USB cable is about six inches longer allowing me to sit pretty far back from the TV and still be connected. I'm glad Nyko decided to include a long USB cable instead of the way too short one that is packed in with the console. The option to use either the rechargeable battery or a regular set of AA is a great feature of the Zero Wireless controller.
As for the controller, it's a boomerang shape with large palm grips. The top of the grips are covered with a metallic plate that is suppose to keep the controller cooler than a plastic coating. It does keep the controller a little bit cooler when held a long time and cools off faster than the rest of the plastic shell. The four primary buttons extrude pretty far from the top offering a nice solid feel when pressed. Each button is back-lit so you can see the shapes clearly when the controller is active. They are spaced apart about the same as the Sony controller.
The left and right bumpers are pretty good sized so you'll be able to press them pretty easily. Conversely, the left and right triggers are a little smaller than what I would've liked though. They are curved to accommodate your index finger well and the tension on the spring is pretty good. The springs' strength allowed me to easily adjust how much I press down on the triggers. Compared to the Sony controller, I like the size of the bumpers on the Zero Wireless but I like the triggers on the Sony controller better.
Something that I found curious was the amount of play the D-pad has. By that I mean you can grab the top and bottom with your thumb and forefinger and rotate the entire D-Pad piece left and right a few degrees pretty easily. Compared to an Xbox 360 controller which has the same D-Pad design, the Zero Wireless controller's implementation doesn't seem to be as well done. I think the D-Pad is the weakest part of the Zero Wireless though as pressing down and moving around on it, I felt the feel and give of the D-Pad doesn't seem up to the standards of the rest of the controller. It just doesn't feel solid.
What Nyko got right though were the two analog sticks. They are concave on top and feature a rubberized top offering a solid non-slip feel to them. Rotating the sticks around, the springs that hold them in place are strong and feel very solid. They snap back into the neutral position quickly and rotate smoothly. Pressing down on the two sticks, you are treated with a nice strong click. Since most of the PlayStation 3 games use the sticks as the primary controls, I'm glad that Nyko did a good job on them.
The Zero Wireless isn't a Bluetooth controller hence you need the dongle plugged into a USB port for it to work. Getting the controller to pair with the dongle was pretty easy and there are four different colors that the LED glows to indicate which controller is which. The square Zero button on top doubles as both the PlayStation button and the link button. It glows to the color that matches the dongle's LED. One bad thing about third party controllers and Sony's insistence on keeping their Bluetooth code a secret is that they can't make controllers that turn on the PlayStation 3. You're forced to turn it on by going to the console or using a Sony controller to do the deed. It's a little annoying but it's not Nyko's fault as they are limited in what they can do in this aspect. To get around the lack of Bluetooth for wireless gameplay, the entire setup works on a 2.4GHz spectrum. It's a crowded one but I never had the controller lose connection with the dongle in my few days of playing.
With the design of the Zero Wireless, I found the controller to be pretty comfortable when held. The metal plates feel well in on the hands and all the buttons are easily reached. I played for a few days and didn't get tired of holding the controller for long periods of time. Also, the wireless seems solid as well as I didn't lose connection during my various game sessions. There wasn't any lag that I can perceive and responses seemed instantaneous.
So what about the rumble? Unfortunately the PlayStation 2 games I tried didn't exhibit any rumble. That's not Nyko's fault but I hope Sony comes out with an update so I can feel the rumble of my old games. Loading up the Burnout Paradise demo, I was treated with that familiar feeling of the controller shaking when hitting obstacles. Yes, rumble is indeed working for the Zero Wireless and it works well. As I crashed into cars, I felt the controller shake. Driving over rough terrain, the Zero Wireless controller rumbled along with it. Sony's MLB08 The Show also takes advantage of the rumble feature. When you guess the right pitch and location, the controller shakes during your at-bat to let you know it's an opportune time to swing. With a runner on third, the controller pulsates like a heartbeat adding a little tension to the at-bat. It's good to finally be able to get rumble back into the Sony console and it's great that Nyko was able to release a controller in the states a month before Sony's to take advantage of this feature. There aren't many rumble enabled games yet but in due time there will be plenty of PlayStation 3 titles to take advantage of this feature.
Doing a little searching, the price of the Zero Wireless controller for the PlayStation 3 can be found at Amazon for $45 which is $10 less than the official Dual Shock 3. Considering the shortcomings of not being Bluetooth and not being able to turn on the system with the controller as well needing a dongle, the Zero Wireless controller for the PlayStation 3 is a good option. If you want a secondary controller to go along with a Dual Shock 3, this is a very nice peripheral to consider. Overall, I found the Zero Wireless controller to be responsive and comfortable. The fact that you'll be able to feel rumble on the PlayStation 3 before the official controller arrives is a plus. There are a few issues I had with the controller but overall it's a good third party product for the PlayStation 3.
More On:
Zero Controller
The Zero Wireless controller will give you rumble, a good feel, and two ways to power the controller. It's too bad you can't turn on your PS3 and you have to use a dongle but those are the limitations that Nyko has to work with. If you already have the Dual Shock 3, this would be a great second controller.

text: Richard Davis Wood Burners Are Cost Efficient Options For Winter Bates Distributors will exhibit new more efficient wood heating models at Southern Farm Show. Published on: Dec 11, 2012 With rising fuel costs many people who live in rural communites and on farms are choosing to become as cost-efficient with energy as possible. In some cases that means those who have access to wood supplies want to burn them for heat, supplementing the energy they take off the energy grid or, perhaps, getting off the energy grid altogether. At the same time, the trend in the U.S. is for consumers to be as clean as possible with their energy use. Bates Distributors says Pro-Fab's new Empyre Elite XT models can help with both goals. The distributor will be at the Southern Farm Show in Raleigh, Jan. 30-Feb.1, with the Pro-Fab equipment, which they have recently added to their existing offerings. These units make use of double-chambered burners that take advantage of gasification principles to burn more efficiently with fewer emissions. Pro-Fab says their efficient units that burn less wood are the "Future of Wood Heat."Wood Burners Are Cost Efficient Options For Winter The Elite XT models have self-regulating controls and can provide heat on demand with a consistent heat output and constant water temperatures. A refractory fire-brick lining maximizes heat retention. The units can be installed indoors or outdoors. They are EPA White Tag qualified and Pro-Fab says their dual combustion downdraft systems reduce emissions by 90%. This gasification technology is rated at 89% efficiency. Bates will have the Elite XT-100 and the Elite XT-200 models at the farm show's Outdoor Exhibits #8221 display. The Elite XT-100 has a peak heat output of 125,000 BTU/hr with a furnace dimensions of W 36 inches, L 59 inches, and H 64 inches. The Elite XT-200 has a peak heat output of 220,000 BTU/hr and has furnace dimensions of W 40.5 inches, L 67 inches and H 69.5 inches. For more information, visit the Bates Distributing exhibit at the Southern Farm Show at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds in Raleigh, Jan. 30 -Feb. 1. You can also contact Bates Distributing, 12345 Road 505, Philadelphia, Mississippi. The phone number is 601-656-0534.

About the same time that Meeting Professionals International was querying corporate, association, and government planners; intermediaries; and other members for its major annual survey (see story, right), our sister publication Financial & Insurance Meetings was doing what it does best: taking a niche approach. FIM's fall 2005 survey of meeting professionals who belong to the Financial & Insurance Conference Planners association revealed interesting data on this unique segment of the meeting market.
With a 41 percent response rate from FICP's 430 planner members, the survey found that respondents' companies held an average of 3.6 incentive travel programs in 2005 and used an average 2,359 room nights. Eighty-four percent of respondents expect to plan more or the same number of incentive meetings in 2006. The average yearly incentive budget increased to $3.2 million from just over $3 million in 2004.
Eighty-nine percent of respondents hold international incentive trips; nearly half are planning one in the first nine months of 2006.

We got our first look Friday at two men accused of impersonating Philadelphia police officers.
Julian Collins was arrested Wednesday night.
Police also charged Michael Green in a separate incident.
Officers took Collins into custody after they saw him flash a badge and lights to a driver Wednesday night at a 7-Eleven on Frankford Avenue.
In an unrelated crime on the same night and a few blocks away, police say Green and another man pulled over three men and handcuffed them.
Police are still looking for Green's accomplice.

North Shore OahuView Map
An hour from town and a world away in atmosphere, Oahu's North Shore, roughly from Kahuku Point to Kaena Point, is about small farms and big waves, tourist traps and otherworldly landscapes. Parks and beaches, roadside fruit stands and shrimp shacks, a bird sanctuary, and a valley preserve offer a dozen reasons to stop between the onetime plantation town of Kahuku and the surf mecca of Haleiwa.
Haleiwa has had many lives, from resort getaway in the 1900s to plantation town through the 20th century to its life today as a surf and tourist magnet. Beyond Haleiwa is the tiny village of Waialua, a string of beach parks, an airfield where gliders, hang gliders, and parachutists play, and, at the end of the road, Kaena Point State Recreation Area, which offers a brisk hike, striking views, and whale-watching in season.
Pack wisely for a day's North Shore excursion: swim and snorkel gear, light jacket and hat (the weather is mercurial, especially in winter), sunscreen and sunglasses, bottled water and snacks, towels and a picnic blanket, and both sandals and close-toed shoes for hiking. A small cooler is nice; you may want to pick up some fruit or fresh corn. As always, leave valuables in the hotel safe and lock the car whenever you park.

Elle's first trip to the Wilkinson Public Library was on account of a dirty diaper. I wish I could say that we went that first time because I was an educationally minded mother privy to the importance of reading at an early age… but the reality is that I had heard that the library has a nice changing table.
It was early summer and Elle was barely 5 months old. We accomplished the nappy mission (the library does, by the way, boast the best location for diaper changing in town) and were packing up to head back out on our errand running when one of the nice Children's Room librarians spotted us trying to make our getaway.
"Hi there!" she said. Elodie thought she was nice, and smiled. "Do you live here?" she asked, after the obligatory goo-goo-ga-ga at baby introductions. "Oh, great! Do you want to sign up for our Summer Reading program?"
"Um…" I hesitated.
"You just have to commit to reading to your child a few times a week, and come to story time when you can," she explained. I liked the funny "Books Taste Good" T-shirt for Elle, a gift for signing up for the reading program, but I wondered if she wasn't too young for story time?
"Not at all. A lot of babies come and they love it."
So, Elle and I committed to reading at home (a great thing to do just before bedtime, I've discovered) and joining the circle at story time once a week. Our first Friday, she sat on my lap in the back, since I wasn't so sure she was, after all, ready for story time. Positioned in the back corner, we could make our fussy baby getaway if necessary. Yet she was mesmerized by the kids, the songs, the puppets, Elizabeth's fun reading voice… The next week, I sat her on a pillow in front of the big reading chair, and the songs and books kept her quiet and attentive for a full 15 minutes – unheard of for Elodie, the busiest baby in the world.
The summer is, I suppose, officially over, but what started as our Summer Reading Program commitment has turned into a rarely missed weekly event that we both look forward to. Elodie likes the songs and watching the other kids; for me, story time is an opportunity to connect with other moms. That 15 or so minutes a week additionally serves to connect both of us to just one of the many local programs that makes our community a good place to raise a child.
So thrilled as we were with weekly story time, and how it gave us a structured setting to explore greater things with great new people, we then signed up for the Ah Haa School's Kindermusik Dream Pillow program. Again, Baby Elle surprised me with the enthusiasm and interest she showed, at just 6 1/2 months old, in what is ultimately an educational group setting. We can bang on drums, sing songs and dance by ourselves at home – and believe me, we do – yet doing those things with other babies, all together, in a new place surrounded by all new things lends new energy to those activities. It evolves from mom and baby play to cooperative involvement in a little community. Her drooling on a bell or banging on a drum may seem just like play, but doing it as structured activity with other moms and babies under the tutelage of one of Telluride's great music teachers (Ulli Sir Jesse) makes it play with a purpose.
For me, it's a realization that every new experience my daughter comes across is a new opportunity to learn. A program like Kindermusik also serves as yet another reminder that I'm lucky to be raising my child in a community where education, even of a baby, is not only easily attained but also well supported.
More so than buying a house or getting married, having a baby seems to establish your firm footing as an engaged member of the community. You can't help it. Suddenly, things like story time at the library or Kindermusik at the Ah Haa are things that you actually take part in! And love. And are appreciative for. I believe their existence in this small town helps to build a firm foundation for the future of the community as a whole, because not only does it instill in young minds a love for reading, listening, creating, and learning, it helps foster a sense of communal attachment and participation.
Who knew singing songs in a circle could be so powerful! For a new mom, it's a delight.
And, a little plug for the Ah Haa: There is still space in the Kindermusik Dream Pillow class for babies. Elle gives it a two-thumbs up. See www.ahhaa.org for details.

Creating a fairer Britain
The Commission has a Legal Directorate of solicitors and caseworkers with wide experience of human rights and discrimination law that run test case on equality and human rights issues. This work covers the whole gamut of social welfare and related legal issues such as access to goods, facilities and services, housing, transport, education, immigration and so on, not solely employment law.
The Commission has power to take judicial review proceedings on the basis of breaches of the Human Rights Act, or in relation to any matter in connection with which the Commission has a function - that is its equality, human rights and good relations mandates. The Commission does not need to fulfil the 'victim' requirement in order to do so. For further details see our human rights legal powers page.
The Commission also intervenes in human rights and equality cases taken by others, particularly at appellate level (including in the European Court of Human Rights). The Commission intervenes in public interest cases where it believes it can add value for the court and help achieve progress in the development or interpretation of human rights or equality law.
Further information
In relation to human rights issues in Scotland, the Commission shares its remit with the Scottish Human Rights Commission and must discuss issues raised with them before taking action.
Equality legal cases which are strategic in nature can be referred to the commission's legal team for referral / funding either for the Commission to take them in house or for the solicitor to request external legal funding. The funding criteria can be seen in the draft casework and litigation strategy. The Commission is able to fund organisations as well as individual claimants.
Unfortunately due to statutory constraints we cannot currently fund human rights cases brought by others which do not also raise issues under the equality enactments.
The Commission is interested in hearing from solicitors, advisers, NGOs and others who are bringing cases that the Commission might intervene in and about cases or issues that we might take up. We look for policies or practices which lead to widespread or serious breaches of equality laws or the Human Rights Act. Unlike solicitors in private practice and NGOs we do not need an individual claimant to come forward to bring a case; the Commission can bring the case in its own name. We will assess whether or not to get involved in a case in accordance with our overall strategic priorities and our casework and litigation strategy.
Even if we are not able to assist or intervene in your particular case we will use all the information sent to us to inform our future priorities for litigation and enforcement work. So, for instance, if we receive several requests from different sources on related matters that might lead us to carry out an inquiry into a particular problem in particular sector.
We are most likely to consider bringing proceedings in our name in certain situations, for instance:
If you wish to contact the Commission about a case or issue that you think we might be interested in, and you are a lawyer or have some other professional interest in the matter, please complete this Request for Commission Assistance or Intervention form and email it to one of the following addresses:
If you have any queries, or if you have difficulty filling in the form, please contact email@example.com.
Alternatively, if you would prefer to speak with the Commission's legal teams about a case or issue that you think we might be interested in, and you are a lawyer or have some other professional interest in the matter, please call our Lawyers' Referrals Helpline. The contact details are:
Our experienced legal staff will be able to discuss with you whether your case concerns an issue that might fall within the Commission's strategic priorities. They will also answer any questions you may have about how to request legal assistance or an intervention from the Commission if you do have a case that we might be interested in.
(Please note however that we will not be able to provide legal advice on this Referrals Helpline. In addition, we are unable to discuss potential referrals from anyone other than professional advisers or representatives such as solicitors or barristers).
Note that claimants and other individuals who would like advice and information on discrimination and human rights issues should contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).
The EASS receives calls from individuals and works collaboratively with advice agencies and other organisations who make referrals to it. It provides information, assistance and support (but not legal advice or representation) to individuals across Britain about discrimination and human rights issues and the applicable law.
The contact details for the EASS are:
Phone: 0808 800 0082
Textphone: 0808 800 0084
Website: http://www.equalityadvisoryservice.com/
Post: FREEPOST Equality Advisory Support Service FPN4431
Opening hours:
09:00 to 20:00 Monday to Friday
10:00 to 14:00 Saturday
Closed on Sundays and Bank Holidays
The Commission can also provide speakers for conferences or other events from our legal teams to explain the kinds of cases we are looking for and to explain our decision-making processes.

Hey Sarah! This is Dale with the post card you sent. I wanted to thank you again for lifting his spirits. He has been in the hospital a lot lately, but has outlived the doctors time line. His wife said, "Out of everything he got, that was the most awesome to him. He has shown it to everyone." Hopefully Weezer will return to Nashville one day so he can have a chance to see them again.
Great to see you yesterday in Ohio and officially get to meet you.

Q: Did God create animals to eat other animals?
A: No, God did not make carnivores at the beginning. When God first made the animals, He instructed them in Genesis 1:30 that they were to eat plants. In other words, they were to be vegetarian originally. Genesis chapter 1:29 teaches that humans were also to be vegetarian originally.
Before sin, God described everything as "very good"—there was no death in the world. Humans and animals ate plants. But … sin changed everything. After the global Flood, God told Noah that humans could then begin to eat animals.
While the Bible doesn't tell us exactly when animals started eating each other, it's obvious this happened before the Flood. The fossil record of dead things—most of which was formed by the Flood of Noah's day—contains the fossils of animal bones in the stomachs of other animals. Thus, some animals were eating each other before the Flood.
We don't know if carnivores developed quickly or slowly after sin. Regardless, though, we now live in a fallen world that's definitely no longer "very good."

Hello everyone!
Today arrived an item that I have waited almost two decades to get.
It is the M41A Pulse Rifle from Aliens.
I have loved this movie since I was a young kid and I've dreamed of being able to hold one of these weapons in my hands and now I finally have the chance! It feels great!
It is a combination of hard plastic and metal and it is a fully-working airsoft gun.
Check it:
Thanks for looking!

Pronation is how a runner's foot rolls medially between footfall and toe-off. Underpronation is when the foot rolls outwards, overpronation is when it rolls inwards, and a neutral pattern is when little rolling occurs.
Matching a shoe's properties with the runner's running style will increase comfort, running efficiency, and contribute to decreasing the risk of injury.
ASICS GEL Cushioning technology opened up a world of new potential for runners and athletes of all shapes, sizes and skill levels who strove to run longer, play harder, and perform more intensely. Thanks to the comfort and support of GEL-Equipped athletic shoes, everyone's body could be a "runner's body." Everyone could push themselves farther into the realm of what was previously reserved for only the "elite."
ASICS Natural33 Shoes are based on the well-accepted tenant that the body tends to react positively to multiple types of stimuli. When coupling Natural33 footwear with your more conventional/structured running shoes, you are "mixing the signals," and effectively Mixing Up Your Run. Elite running coach Andrew Kastor discusses how our Mix Up Your Run concept can help you improve yourself -- whether you're a seasoned competitive runner, or simply running to stay in shape.

One tip for the conscious traveler: you may not actually be IN the cabin all to often, only to sleep a little. So unless you have lots of money to spend, take the nicely decorated standard stateroom and have lots of fun.
From journal Eastern Canada- New England Cruise
Starting with breakfast, it can be enjoyed in your cabin (room service), or in the dining room. Full menu items, and even healthy starts.
Lunch is a grand affair, with lighter sides, or full meaty meals.
Dinner is always an event. The waiters and busboys sing and dance, always happy to be of service.
Then there's the coveted midnight buffet. These are grandiose affairs that were picture perfect.
The quality of the food is generally very good, and the portions are just right.
Hope you have a healthy appetite.

According to legend, Ancient Rome was founded by the two brothers, and demi-gods, Romulus and Remus, on 21 April 753. The legend claims that, in an argument over who would rule the city (or, in another version, where the city would be located) Romulus killed Remus and named the city after himself. This story of the founding of Rome is the best known but it... [continue reading]

Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Switches : Understanding the Magic Box
Filed under: CCTV Articles, CCTV Camera, General Technology, Guides, Power Supply, Security Camera, Security Camera System
A Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch is a device that powers a remote Ethernet device by transferring electrical power over the same Ethernet cable that sends data transmission to & from the device. This will help reduce cost of cabling as well as save time while installing, since you won't need multiple cabling for each camera. I'm going to break down how to figure out which PoE switch is the correct one for each specific security system.
How many power over Ethernet ports are on each switch?
Most of the time, it should list in the switch specifications how many ports are available for PoE. Make sure you pay attention to this, otherwise you won't be able to power your cameras through the standard ports.
How do I figure out how much power is transmitted through each port?
You need to pay attention to a couple things when looking at a PoE switch. First, how much power does the entire switch offer? Second, how much power does it offer per port? Most people think it's as simple as taking the power of the entire switch and dividing by how many PoE ports are on it. This is not the case, and is typically the #1 mistake made by installers. In most cases, you will get about 15w of power per port.
If it says it has 8 PoE ports, can I hook up 8 cameras through it?
Sometimes, but not always. You'll need to read the specs of each camera that you'll be powering through the switch to find out exactly how much power that camera requires. Then you'll need to check the max power supplied through the entire switch. After you've done this, you can figure out how many cameras you can connect to the switch. Oftentimes IP cameras are power-hungry, and if you don't pay attention to these details, you will end up not having enough power for your cameras to operate properly.
Understanding PoE switches is essential for successfully installing IP cameras. By knowing these basic guidelines it should make your shopping for a PoE switch that suites your needs a little bit easier. Just remember that using PoE switches will ultimately save money, time, and space when installing a camera system.

Northern Rocky Mountain Ponderosa Pine Woodland and Savanna
These grasslands are similar floristically to Inter-Mountain Basins Big Sagebrush Steppe (CES304.778) but are defined by a more frequent fire regime and the absence or low cover of shrubs over large areas, occasionally entire landforms. These are extensive grasslands, not grass-dominated patches within the sagebrush shrub-steppe ecological system. This system occurs throughout much of the Columbia Plateau and is found at slightly higher elevations farther south. Soils are variable, ranging from relatively deep, fine-textured often with coarse fragments, and non-saline often with a microphytic crust, to stony volcanic-derived clays to alluvial sands. This grassland is dominated by perennial bunch grasses and forbs (>25% cover), sometimes with a sparse (<10% cover) shrub layer; Chrysothamnus viscidiflorus, Ericameria nauseosa, Tetradymia spp., or Artemisia spp. may be present in disturbed stands. Associated graminoids include Achnatherum hymenoides, Elymus elymoides, Elymus lanceolatus ssp. lanceolatus, Hesperostipa comata, Festuca idahoensis, Koeleria macrantha, Poa secunda, and Pseudoroegneria spicata. Common forbs are Phlox hoodii, Arenaria spp., and Astragalus spp. Areas with deeper soils are rare because of conversion to other land uses. The rapid fire-return regime of this ecological system maintains a grassland by retarding shrub invasion, and landscape isolation and fragmentation limit seed dispersal of native shrub species. Fire frequency is presumed to be less than 20 years. Through isolation from a seed source, combined with repeated burning, these are "permanently" (more than 50 years) converted to grassland.

Brady Hoke isn't a Michigan man. He was born in Ohio (boo, hiss) and attended college in Indiana (Ball State).
Yet if Bo Schembechler were alive, he'd say something such as "This is more like it."
The spread might have worked for Rich Rodriguez at West Virginia, but people in Ann Arbor these days won't even put it on their crackers.
Yes, Michigan dropped to 8-5 last year after Hoke's 11-2 debut season.
"That's unacceptable," he said.
It also hasn't stopped us (and many others) from predicting a rebound year.
You can feel the philosophical transformation to Bob Seger's "Like a Rock" days, when the Wolverines routinely drove heavy equipment into the line of scrimmage and didn't care about the miles per gallon.
Michigan hasn't won a Big Ten title since 2004 and that's a problem, so Hoke is backpedaling fast to the no-nonsense days of Lloyd Carr.
It just might work.
Hoke is ditching the fancy-pants spread offense in favor of the pro style. The plan was to gently wean the program off Denard Robinson, that wild and crazy quarterback who ran with untied shoelaces.
It happened earlier than expected last year when an injury forced Devin Gardner into the lineup.
Gardner is 6 feet 4 and not as shifty as Robinson, but he is a more polished passer.
"He probably spins the ball a little tighter," Hoke said.
Gardner played the last five games at quarterback and passed for 1,219 yards and 11 touchdowns while completing 60% of his passes.
Michigan is getting down and dirty again because, as Hoke says, "I'm an old defensive line coach."
This should eventually translate into 10-win seasons and Big Ten titles.
"This is Michigan," Gardner, a third-year junior, said. "That's what we do."
Hoke has a coaching pedigree "look" similar to that of Urban Meyer and Brian Kelly with ties to the salt-of-earth Mid-American Conference.
Meyer cut his teeth at Bowling Green before lifting mid-major Utah to greatness on his way to Florida and then Ohio State.
Kelly took root at Central Michigan (MAC) and then led Cincinnati to an undefeated regular season before being hired at Notre Dame.
Hoke parlayed an improbable 12-1 year at Ball State (MAC) in 2008 into the San Diego State job. There, he led the historically underachieving Aztecs to a nine-win season.
Michigan's foundation is being retrofitted to Hoke's liking. He was the team's defensive line coach when Michigan won three Big Ten titles in the late 1990s. That included the 1997 national championship team. Hoke even helped recruit Tom Brady to Ann Arbor.
Michigan returns only 10 starters, but those are just numbers. The offensive line got a boost when left tackle Taylor Lewan opted not to leave early for the NFL. Running back Fitzgerald Toussaint should be better after an injury-plagued 2012 and the school also recruited the nation's No. 1 tailback in Derrick Green.
Michigan's schedule is tough, but many of the tough games (Notre Dame, Nebraska, Ohio State) are in Ann Arbor, where Hoke is 14-0.
There's a chance the season could come down to the Ohio State game … twice. The teams could play in consecutive weekends (regular season, Big Ten title game). It can happen only this year before the schools move into the same division.
"I like our football team," Hoke said. "I usually don't say that."
But he just did.
Top 25 so far: 25. Oklahoma; 24. Wisconsin; 23. Fresno State; 22. UCLA; 21. Texas A&M; 20. Notre Dame; 19. Oregon State; 18. Oklahoma State; 17. Arizona State; 16. Nebraska; 15. Louisiana State; 14. Florida State.

As with its Rock / Steel brethren, Probopass and Bastiodon, Lairon is a very unbalanced Pokemon in both stats and typing. While it—like its evolutionary family—was blessed with a monstrous Defense stat, it was also cursed with a terrible typing that gives it glaring weaknesses to the two most common physical attacking types, Ground and Fighting. Unlike its counterparts, however, Lairon can use the Eviolite item, which both boosts its excellent Defense to dizzying heights and turns its terrible Special Defense into something usable. Like its brother Aggron in RU, Lairon also wields a mighty recoil-free Head Smash that can dent most walls and destroy any Pokemon weak to it. In addition, Lairon can stray from its normally defensive roles and surprise the opposition with a boosting Autotomize set. When coupled with Head Smash, it can easily destroy a tier that is largely weak to Rock-type attacks. Using Lairon effectively always requires careful maneuvering around its weaknesses, but it can easily pull its weight whether it is supporting your team with its massive defenses or shattering your opponent with its formidable Head Smash.
When running physically defensive investment along with Eviolite, Lairon's Defense skyrockets to levels that dwarf even standard physical walls such as Tangela and Alomomola, letting it even survive powerful 4x super effective attacks, such as Adamant Torterra's Earthquake and Choice Scarf Sawk's Close Combat. Stealth Rock is a must-have on any team and fits well on Lairon, who can reliably set it up due to its incredible bulk. Head Smash is a great move for Lairon as well, as it is recoil-free and can do a lot of damage thanks to the STAB boost and Lairon's base 90 Attack. Earthquake completes a pseudo-EdgeQuake combo with Head Smash and can take down Fire- and Rock-types; however, Toxic can be used to cripple walls such as Alomomola, who can't Toxic Lairon in return thanks to its Steel typing. Roar is used in the last slot to phaze out threatening setup sweepers such as Torterra, as well as scout for switch-ins and rack up hazard damage when paired with Stealth Rock.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Although Lairon's stat spread might make a specially defensive set seem ridiculous, Eviolite allows it to take weaker and resisted special moves with aplomb after significant investment. This Lairon trades insane physical bulk for a more equalized stat distribution and works well in checking a greater variety of threats. Stealth Rock is an excellent move for any team to have, and it should always be used on Lairon unless another team member is running the move. Head Smash lets Lairon take down frail threats and can even threaten walls such as Golbat and Shelmet. Roar enables Lairon to remove threatening sweepers that would otherwise set up on it, while also scouting for switch-ins and accumulating hazard damage. Earthquake allows Lairon to hit the Steel- and Fighting-types that resist Head Smash, but Toxic can be used if you find Lairon needs a way to take down physical walls such as Alomomola.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Although defensive Lairon is arguably outclassed by Bastiodon and Probopass, it is with an offensive set that Lairon can distinguish itself from its fellow Rock- and Steel-types. Its base 90 Attack isn't too shabby and is more than compensated for by the high Base Power of Head Smash. Autotomize boosts Lairon's terrible Speed to decent levels and lets Lairon go for a sweep. Head Smash is its main offensive move and differentiates itself from other Rock Polish sweepers such as Camerupt. Head Smash hits most Pokemon ridiculously hard, especially as a large amount of Pokemon in NU are weak to Rock-type attacks. Earthquake hits all Pokemon that resist Head Smash for at least neutral damage, with Torterra being the only notable exception. Iron Head is a reliable STAB move that never misses and has a good chance to flinch the opponent after a Speed boost.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Lairon doesn't really have much in the way of other options. A Choice Band set is usable; although it sacrifices most of Lairon's bulk, the payoff can be huge. Double-Edge also benefits from Rock Head but provides no significant coverage alongside Head Smash, as it is also ineffective against Rock- and Steel-types. Metal Burst can catch your opponent by surprise, but it can only work once, and Lairon will often be easily picked off afterwards. Lairon can also set up Sunny Day and Rain Dance for your team, but it is completely outclassed in this role by many of the NU tier's Pokemon.
Checks and Counters
Golurk is arguably the best Lairon counter in the tier because it takes little damage from any of Lairon's attacks and can easily OKHO it back or set-up a Substitute. Torterra is also one of the better Lairon checks; it is only really troubled by Toxic or multiple Iron Head flinches, and can then reply with a devastating Earthquake that OHKOes all but the most physically defensive Lairon. Gurdurr laughs at Lairon's attempts at dealing damage and can set up Bulk Up boosts in Lairon's face before finishing it off with Drain Punch. Additionally, status from Toxic or Body Slam only helps to make Gurdurr stronger thanks to its Guts ability. Weezing can also counter Lairon; although it can be worn down with entry hazards and multiple Head Smashes, it can burn Lairon with Will-O-Wisp, preventing it from posing much of a threat. Specially based Water-types such as Gorebyss can easily deal with defensive Lairon, while Pokemon that use Hidden Power Fighting or Hidden Power Ground as a coverage move, such as Haunter, will also have little trouble getting past Lairon. Physically defensive Pokemon such as Alomomola and Tangela can sponge multiple Head Smashes from the offensive set, but are very vulnerable to Toxic, and can do little back to Lairon aside from whittling it down with Leech Seed and Waterfall.
Any Choice Scarf holder with more than base 70 Speed can outspeed a +2 Lairon, but will be hard-pressed to OHKO a healthy Lairon except with a super effective attack. Choice Scarf Sawk can easily tank any attack Lairon uses and OHKO it back with Close Combat. Lastly, Taunt from the likes of Misdreavus disables defensive sets, but frail Taunt users such Murkrow must be careful of Head Smash.
