GREEN – City council is now considering an amendment that would increase the scope of a proposed entertainment district and also broadly change the originally proposed boundaries.
Members are considering the district growing from 735 acres to 955 acres, primarily in the Massillon Road Corridor area, stretching from state Route 619 and just south of Lindakay Drive on the north to as far south as just beyond Wise Road and Pancho's Southwestern Grille on Massillon Road.
The changes were suggested by Planning Director Wayne Wiethe, who said the amended expansion would "desaturize" the project in the Massillon Road area, which already is under major development primarily in the area from Boettler Road south to Town Park Boulevard.
The entertainment district is being considered to lure regional and national businesses, including supermarkets and restaurants to Green, which is maxed out now with 13 D-5 liquor permits for the entire city.
State law would permit up to 15 more D-5 state liquor licenses if the entertainment district is approved. The permits are a major selling point in attracting such retail businesses to Green, bringing more jobs and added tax revenue.
Developer Cindy Williams, who has worked for several years trying to develop a 23.5-acre project off Graybill Road and fronting Massillon Road, told council that the entertainment proposal is advantageous in helping her bring "the type of quality restaurant in here that is going to maintain the credibility of Green" and meet the needs of families, those on a date and those meeting business clients.
"It's really necessary for us to a have liquor license available for these types of businesses coming into Green," said Williams. Her Green Project Dev. proposal begins south of Graybill Road at 3995 Massillon Road and goes south to just north of Akron General Medical Center, with retail businesses and offices facing Massillon Road and residential housing on 11 acres east of the retail complex.
Williams said Phase 1 would likely need three to five licenses and possibly more when Phase 2 is developed.
Jim Nilsen, (cq) president and treasurer of Acme Inc., commented, "While it's not essential for Acme's effort in terms of opening their store with a beer and wine licenses that they have on application, for the overall developer of the site it is essential for us to see the passage of the city entertainment district legislation."
Nilsen said that since announcing plans to break ground this spring the level of intensity for interest by potentials businesses has been much higher. He sad he is "in serious discussions" with several potential tenants for space in Acme's 30,000 square feet of retail and office space.
Noting that Nilsen said that during planning he had heard others comment that Green was "a significantly under-served restaurant market," Ward 3 Councilman Ken Knodel said he favored the amended plan since it "gives us the opportunity to spread them (licenses) out." He added, "In today's climate a restaurant cannot survive without a liquor license."
Council President Dave France said he favors the amended proposal, including adding the city-owned land on Town Park Boulevard and on Steese Road.
"I went along with taking the zone farther south. The reasoning for that was the fact that it makes more sense to stretch them out and don't have so many in one area," France said.
He added, "I'm not in favor of a second district at this time. I'd rather go ahead with this district and have the number (of licenses) at 15," adding that he isn't happy with taking the boundary west to Tabs Drive.
At-large councilman Chris Humphrey suggested only going north on Massillon Road to Interstate 77 and south to Steese Road.
He also would like to limit inclusion of city-owned property, saying he doesn't believe state legislation requires inclusion of such property to meet requirements.
Ward 1 Councilman Jim Colopy said, "I like the broader boundaries. I like the changes."
Resident Joel Helms said he preferred the original boundaries, while predicting that a second entertainment district could be created in three to five years in the South Arlington Road area to provide more equal distribution over the entire city.
As a result of the amendment and other suggested changes, council delayed voting at east to the next meeting on March 12.

Sun Working on a Free Web Video Solution
Rob Glidden of Sun Microsystems reports in his blog on two new Open Source projects by his employer which will lead to a free media solution with video and audio codecs.
In the scope of the Open Media Commons initiative (OMC), Sun is working on OMS Video; according to Gliddden the abbreviation can either mean Open Media Stack or Open Media System. The open and free video solution for the WWW will include an audio codec and a video codec – similar to Flash – and at the same time handle data transport and control, and content security. The developers of the free codec will not just be paying attention to the codec's technical capabilities, such as speed and quality. OMS will also fulfill the licensing requirements of free software, be free of charge and not infringe on any patents. It relies on the intellectual property rights method developed by the OMC initiative. The initiative not only uses its own license, the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL), which allows for a combination of open and proprietary code, but also relies on Digital Rights Management (DRM).
The video codec will be loosely based on the H.26x standard, and the developers are looking into Xiph Vorbis as the audio format. Sun does not want to use H.264 directly as the format is not free enough for the company: "Sun was a part of the 2003 IMTC alliance of the 20+ companies that urged publicly a royalty-free baseline for h.264, which was ultimately not adopted." Projects with similar objectives, such as Vorbis, Theora and Dirac, are not regarded as competitors, but supporters. It is hard to tell from the announcement how long it will take until the first tangible product is released.

RALEIGH — N.C. State likely will start righthander Ethan Ogburn in its NCAA regional opener Friday, and thats fine with Ogburn.
He wants the ball. Badly.
Id love to run out there, said the junior from High Point, who wants to help the Wolfpack beat Sacred Heart and get off to a smooth start in the double-elimination regional at N.C. States Doak Field. Theres also the matter of atoning for last year.
Ogburn took the mound in the NCAA opener against Stetson, and the Pack took a 5-0 lead in the first three innings. But Ogburn couldnt hold it as the Hatters bounced back for an 8-7 victory in Columbia, S.C.
Ogburns line: four innings, six hits, five runs, all earned.
Ogburn smiled this week when asked if that loss offered a little extra motivation for this year.
It does a little bit, he said. Were just focused on one game at a time. Thats the way it has been all year. Nothing in the past means too much and theres nothing in the future where you can look too far ahead.
Its definitely great experience to have postseason innings under my belt. But weve just got to come out and figure out Sacred Heart and get after it.
Setting up pitching rotations for an NCAA regional is a delicate thing. The top-seeded Wolfpack has arguably the best pitcher in college baseball, freshman lefthander Carlos Rodon. However, State coach Elliott Avent robably will save him for the second game Saturday.
Sacred Heart (25-30) is the fourth seed in the regional, and win or lose against the Pioneers, the Pack on Saturday will face either second-seeded Vanderbilt or third-seed UNC-Wilmington.
In last weeks ACC Baseball Championship, Avent sent Ogburn to the mound in the opener against Miami. In 6.2 innings, the former Southeast Guilford standout gave up two runs on five hits, fanning five and walking one.
Ogburn threw 111 pitches, 66 for strikes, and was behind in the count on a number of batters. But he battled hard, and the Pack, with relief help from senior righty Vance Williams, pushed across two runs in the bottom of the ninth for a 3-2 win.
I love catching Ethan, freshman catcher Brett Austin said. He makes my job so much easier. What makes him effective is he has four pitches he can throw any time. He forces early contact and makes the game go by quick, and I think thats what make him successful.
We had a good rhythm, a good pace going (against Miami). Thats what makes him a good pitcher.
Austin said Ogburn has developed a good slider, adding that Ogburn did not throw it much earlier in the season.
He said he threw it in high school and kind of got away from it a little bit last year, Austin said. Its been a good pitch for him.
The Wolfpack was hoping to come back from Greensboro as ACC champions. That didnt happen after a 4-0 loss to North Carolina, in a 12-inning thriller Saturday, kept N.C. State out of Sundays conference title game.
We were just a hit here, a hit there away in that game, Ogburn said. We played some of the best baseball weve played all year in that game, but we just werent fortunate enough to get the breaks.
The stakes are higher now. And Avent, while not fully ruling out Rodon as the starter in the opener, said hes confident that Ogburn can give the Pack what it needs.
Ogburn was 6-4 as a sophomore with a 4.52 earned run average. Hes 4-3 this season with a 3.01 ERA, striking out 63 and walking 17 in 77.2 innings.
Hes improved every day since he got here, Avent said. Hes a kid who could pitch and believed in himself, but if you take his transformation from his freshman year to his junior year, hes still a kid who can pitch but believes in himself a lot more.
His big thing is command. He can spot the ball anywhere he wants to. He has four pitches he can get you out with, but his command is his big deal and he keeps the ball down.
And keeping the ball Friday, in an outing to replace the memory of last years NCAA regional start, is all that Ogburn wants.

Yesterday Kypreos passed along a nugget that the Leafs were aggressively investigating trades save for a group of untouchables that kind of made sense until you realized that Bozak was included and some high-profile players were not. Thanks to @mottysco, we now have The Expendables. These are those that Leafs brass has at various times either purged or been interested in purging. Not a bad squad.
Sometimes a picture says a thousand words and sometimes it sums up an entire franchise with just one. A big glove tap to Mark Hulholland for capturing le mot juste to describe the Calgary Flames.
Here is a simple table of five teams that have the same save percentage this season as well as the goals allowed by each. Approximately every 5.8 goals represents one win. That means that only based on shot volume the Leafs gave up 10 wins or 20 points compared to the Minnesota Wild.
Hoping this works..my first Fanshot attempt.
Courtesy of Down Goes Brown, here's the Maple Leafs' Excuses Edition of 2048. Good luck not playing this non-stop.
Oh good, in case you were wondering how Randy Carlyle's comments about James Reimer being "ok, just ok" went over in the Reimer camp... The good news? He's an RFA this summer. Ha! You're trapped sucker!
Which one of these two is the power forward that is supposed to get shots from in tight?
Watch as Phil Kessel pots the Leafs' third goal from Saturday night. Budaj thinks it's going high glove but Phil knows otherwise.

Many homeowners and professionals in our community have recently begun to explore finishing materials that serve as alternatives to traditional gypsum, cement, or acrylic plasters. Some of the plaster alternatives on the market today not only offer a unique aesthetic appeal, but can also positively impact indoor air quality as they respond to changes in the atmosphere, like shifts in the level of humidity, by producing negative ions. American Clay Earth Plaster, and Eco Stucco, a lime-based plaster, are both natural, breathable materials that can improve the indoor air quality of a space. Both products use natural mineral pigments and produce gorgeous finishes that are available in a variety of colors and textures.

Jurassic Park 4 returning to Isla Nublar
Director Colin Trevorrow offers the first tease of Jurassic Park 4...
You're going to have to forgive our ongoing excitement at the though of a new Jurassic Park movie. We're the ones who'd happily sit through a new Jurassic Park movie every year, so when it was confirmed that Jurassic Park 4 was coming in 2014, and then that Colin Trevorrow was directing it, we allowed ourselves a cry of joy.
That's why, even though we're not in the habit of reporting every picture that a director Tweets from the set of their movie, we shamelessly can't help ourselves here.
That said, the Tweet that Colin Trevorrow sent out about Jurassic Park 4 last night did have something of real note within it. For he seems to confirm that the new movie will be taking place on Isla Nublar. That's where the first film was set, with the sequels heading off to Isla Sorna instead. Might the original park be back in action, or has it been left in a state of disrepair, much to the annoyance of those who live within it?
We've no idea, in truth. But we look forward to finding out. Below is the picture that Trevorrow Tweeted, so you can see just how calm and idyllic Isla Nublar is looking...

"Erm... y-you are planning... to show us some dinosaurs... on your dinosaur tour, right? Erm... hello? Hello?" *knock knock*
*Ahem* sorry. Just kind of a really BIG fan of Jurassic Park. Tee hee. tee hee hee hee!
I really hate that man...
My guess is that this is island has been quarantined and to develop naturally but for some reason they have to clear the island of Dinos - massive oil or diamond strike found on the island? - so the army is sent in to clear the Dinos off, not 1 or 2 T-Rexs but 20 or 30, not 5 Raptors but 200, think Aliens with the Army armed to the teeth with Helicoptors, tanks, flamethrowers etc, Triceratops charging at APCs...
The more I think about it the more I desperately hope this is the type of film they are going to do, JP3 done right!
That just doesn't sound right. It isn't Jurassic Park
Dinosaurs vs army?? Jeez I hope not. Just look at the mess of JP2 to see what happens when you have armed men fighting dinosaurs.
JP3, for all it's faults, was a survival story, not a war film. Any new sequel needs to follow a similar idea.
That is a very pretty lawn.
To make Jurassic Park even remotely interesting to me, they're going to have to go back to the aborted Dino-Man hybrid story. I know it sounds like a load of old testicles but it's a film about dinosaurs which are able to thrive in Earth's current climate despite the fact that any good dinologist would tell you that they wouldn't be able to.
And don't anyone go touting any pseudo-science that was shoe-horned into any of the films as proof as to why it's possible.
It's not possible but it's a film so it doesn't matter. Which is exactly why they should have Dino-Men.
I always wonderd what happend to Isla Nublar. In non of the movies there was a mention to the napalm attack by the army from the books. Dino's could live on both Sorna and Nublar. Now remember The Lost World, where that boat guy told the team the five islands are called The Five Deads. Could there be dino's on the other three islands?
Also, bring in the evil BioSyn corporation from the books, Dodgson!
We've already seen the whole "returning to an abandoned island years later, the dinos having taken control". It was The Lost World.
What we've never actually seen is a fully functioning Jurassic Park - i.e. the theme park that never was. Bustling, full of visitors when it all goes wrong.
Would be close to the original but on a much bigger scale.
I hope there's no kids in this film, or couples going through a divorce. Imagine if Jaws had done the same. Ramp up the horror and do this thing right, please!
I'm pretty sure you can expect there to be kids in it. The JP films are squarely aimed at the family market...
if you do the same film over and over then what is the point, there is only so many times you can have a small group of innocents and children being somehow being stranded on the island out of comms before it gets boring.
Dinosaurs will eat anything. Loves kids.
How calm and idyllic Isla Nublar is looking...Looks stormy and cloudy weather to me!
They wont. it will be a safe pg family movie.
Are you feeling alright?
I'm severely excited too, but how on Earth are they gonna do this?
As much as I'm sure everyone would like to see Dinosaurs with rocket launchers and laser-beams I think this is going to be the best solution.
Set X number of years later. Island will have already been re-claimed from Mr Angry Dinosaur. The idea from the original film is in place. Theme Park has been established, people are visiting it, buying the lunch boxes etc.
(Insert Random Disaster) I'm hoping for Volcano.
Dinosaurs get loose on mass and start eating random tourist trying to flee the island. The Plane / Ship that the tourist need to escape is destroyed and they need to make it too X way over the other-side of Dinosaur landscape, that's currently being ripped apart by earthquakes and a Volcano going "Look at me I'm special effects gold!"
Sort of Dinosaurs, Disaster, Survival Movie.
Bring back the Wayne Knight character from the first film. What if he didn't die? Just blinded and horribly injured and living on the island for the last 20 years.
He would be a bearded insane savage by now, relying on his wits and cunning to survive.
That's not how you spell crap
@Joe...ummm, 'kraP' is 'Park' backwards
I would love them to make it an 18. Make it a proper dinosaur horror film t be remembered through the ages.
Failing that, a 15-rated which gives us some nostalgia on Isla Nublar. And make it good.
"First it's the ooh's and ahh's and later it's the running and the screaming!"
I'd rather see Peter Jackson actually make the two sequels to his King Kong that he joked about during production; there were some cool Dino Riders-esque ideas in the mix!
An elite team of Marines are dropped onto the island after all comms stop. Recon reveals no signs of life and all facitilities abandoned... or have they?
They could call it... Aliens--I mean, Dinosaurs.
That's not Jurassic Park, thats some Michael Bay-esque action movie replacing giant robots with dinosaurs. And given the state of modern blockbusters, a horror thats all to easy to imagine. Jurassic Park should be an adventure film. It should have action and horror, yes. But it should also have a sense of wonder and awe, suspense, and it should be fun. Not another bland military action sci fi film.
This is EXACTLY what I want to see in JP 4 ! A functioning Jurassic Park, with thousands of visitors, and then dinosaurs escape and start killing everyone !
Surely it can be both? I just watched Iron Man 3 and there was slow moments, moments of suspense and a massive great tear up at the end and that was a great film.

Factors to consider
Cost, performance, scalability and the deduplication domain are just a few of the considerations when evaluating deduplication in the backup process to determine whether a backup application's built-in dedupe capability or a feature built into a backup storage system will best serve your environment.
Cost. Presumably, an investment made in technology that can reduce storage capacity requirements by a factor of 20 will be easily justified. Is there an added fee to enable the feature whether it's a backup app capability or an "add-on" feature in a hardware device? Is an upgrade to a higher version or model required? Even if deduplication is standard in the product (hardware or software), what other cost implications are there for implementing it (e.g., will it require additional network, server or storage resources)?
Performance. Deduplication comes in all shapes and sizes as backup workloads have different requirements. Deduplication may be mixed and matched, taking advantage of features of both software and hardware products. Source-side dedupe in backup software may make the most sense for remote systems because it delivers greater network efficiency, while target-side approaches may make more sense for workloads with the most stringent backup windows.
Scalability. While deduplication should mitigate the need to expand storage capacity, the impact of growth on the dedupe environment
Deduplication domain. You also need to consider the scope of the deduplication effort. Will your dedupe effort be limited to the confines of a single container -- whether it's logical or physical -- or are your goals broader?
Such a wealth of deduplication options provides ample choices, but it can also lead to some confusion. Vendors have the opportunity to educate users about deduplication technology in general, and specifically how their own solutions approach the task. And you need to understand your backup environment and requirements before short-listing solutions. Vet the vendors and their products, check their references and, most importantly, test the products using your own data over several backup cycles.

When I was first starting out as a chiropractor, I often engaged in discussions with 'old timers' They told me that chiropractors helped or cured many ailmentrs and it did not take as many adjustments as today. That got me to thinking about why.
In the old days we ate better, we were more active due to few labor saving devices and fewer jobs that entailed sitting all day. One thing is that we were more active because we had to be and we were healthier because of this. Good healthy people need fewer adjustments when they"catch a bug" because our nervous systems have healthier metabolism to work with. Today we come out of the womb with toxic chemicals already from the placental blood supply. We grow up in less active, more stressful, and more toxic environments than our grandparents did.
I think this is one reason that chiropractic patients got well faster in the "old days", because we had less "junk" in our bodies and we were more flexible because we walked more and reached more and climbed more. A couple of 'large keys' to health is motion and proper diet. Lets make a new resolution to stick with last years resolution to get in shape and eat right so that next year we can look back and say we succeeded.

More winter lover weather with rain and NW winds this morning, and a few bumpy lines of swell on the coast. Surf is around 1' with occasional bigger sets but quality is pretty average, and the tide is low around 0930. We might see some improvement on the incoming tide with swell getting a small push and winds easing back under 10 knots. High tide's at 4pm, and it'll get a bit full on the reefs after 3pm - but hopefully clean up a bit.

10 Tips for Veteran-Owned Businesses Seeking to Sell to the U.S. Federal Government
by Caron_Beesley, Community Moderator
- Created: January 31, 2013, 7:21 am
- Updated: July 2, 2013, 1:18 pm
Are you a veteran-owned small business and thinking of selling to your former boss – the U.S. federal government?
Part of the mission of the SBA is to provide assistance to veterans and service-disabled veterans who return home to start, resume or grow their businesses. In addition to supporting veteran business owners through entrepreneurial training, and providing access to capital, the SBA also provides resources, tools and support to help veterans start and grow businesses through government contracting.
If you are a veteran-owned small business, check out these 10 tips for getting started selling to the U.S government and winning a government contract.
1) Boots to Business – Get Help Starting Your Business - Boots to Business is a public-private partnership program that gives service members support to help them learn the nuts and bolts of how to start and grow a business and access SBA tools and resources available to them.
2) Find a Veterans Business Outreach Center – The SBA's Office of Veterans Business Development oversees multiple Veterans Business Outreach Centers across the country. In addition to helping veterans build a business plan and start a business, these centers can help veterans land government contracts, get access to mentoring services, and find training.
3) Review your Financing Options – In addition to a range of other loan programs, SBA's Patriot Express Program is specifically designed for small businesses that are more than 51 percent owned or controlled by veterans or members of the military community and are available up to $500,000.
4) Familiarize Yourself with Small Business Incentives for Government Contracting – The law mandates that government agencies establish contracting goals that require them to reach out and consider small businesses and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses for procurement opportunities. Currently, 23 percent of contracts must be awarded to small businesses and three percent to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. These opportunities will help open doors, but you must still be able to sell your business on performance, price and ability. Contact your Veterans Business Outreach Center to learn more about these and other incentive opportunities.
5) Learn About How the Government Buys – The government applies standardized procedures to buy products and services it needs from suppliers that meet certain qualifications. The primary contracting methods used by the government include micro-purchases, simplified procedures, sealed bidding, contract negotiations and consolidated purchasing. Learn more about these in another SBA online training course, Government Contracting 101: How the Government Buys, or read a quick overview of the process in my earlier blog: Government Contracting – Learn how the Government Buys from Small Businesses.
6) Understand the Rules – Understanding the government's procurement rules is critical to your success as a government contractor. The FAR, or Federal Acquisitions Regulations, is the roadmap for doing business with the government. Check out these resources on SBA.gov to help you become familiar with the regulations that apply to most federal contractors.
7) Size Does Matter – As a small business, certain government programs may apply to you. The question then becomes: What is a small business, or, more specifically, is your firm a small business? Over the years, SBA has established and revised numerical definitions for all for-profit industries, and this numerical definition is called a "size standard." Use SBA's Size Standards Tool to help determine if your business is truly "small" and qualifies for government contracts.
8) Learn the Process of Selling to the Government and Find Opportunities – Selling to the government is not as big of a mystery as you might think. There are several fundamental steps you should follow:
- Define your business and products using a DUNS number and NAICS code.
- Register your firm in the System for Awards Management.
- Market directly to agencies.
- Use established procurement vehicles.
For a deeper dive into this process, read Selling to the Government – Get Started with These 5 Steps or check out SBA's information about Registering for Government Contracting, which explains the easy steps you need to follow to being bidding on government proposals.
9) Find Subcontracting Opportunities – An alternative to seeking prime contracts is to explore subcontracting opportunities. Subcontracting with a prime contractor can be a profitable experience as well as a growth opportunity for a business. To help small businesses find opportunities, SBA maintains SUB-Net, a searchable database of available subcontract opportunities.
10) Have a Question? – If you have questions about the federal marketplace, government contracting methods, contract opportunities or winning recovery and other federal contracts, check out the following resources:
- SBA's Government Contracting Guide – Explore the process of government contracting with easy how-to guides and resources.
- Government Contracting Classroom – Available via SBA's Learning Center, these self-paced, free online courses cover the fundamentals of selling to the government as a small business owner.
- Get In-Person Assistance and Training – SBA and its resource partners can answer your questions about the federal market place, government contracting methods, and finding contract opportunities. Find your local SBA office, Veterans Business Outreach Center and more with this interactive map.

Sony Xperia ion IS for US only.
We heard about the Xperia ion yesterday, and managed to get hold of a video demonstrating it (the video has since been removed for some reason).
In the video the demonstrator said the Xperia ion will be exclusive the the US's AT&T network, however we weren't sure weather it was exclusive the the US or just exclusive to AT&T within the US.
We really hoped that is was the latter, but unfortunately an email from Sony (Ericsson)'s PR confirms that this is not the case.
"The ion is US only at the moment."
So hopefully we'll see it coming to our shores too (possibly without 4G functionality), but it's doubtful.

moreAdaptive optics is a powerful new technique used to sharpen telescope images blurred by the Earth's atmosphere. This authoritative book is the first dedicated to the use of adaptive optics in astronomy. Mainly developed for defence applications, the technique of adaptive optics has only recently been introduced in astronomy. Already it has allowed ground-based telescopes to produce images with sharpness rivalling those from the Hubble Space Telescope. The technique is expected to revolutionise the future of ground-based optical astronomy. Written by an international team of experts who have pioneered the development of the field, this timely volume provides both a rigorous introduction to the technique and a comprehensive review of current and future systems. It is set to become the standard reference for graduate students, researchers and optical engineers in astronomy and other areas of science where adaptive optics is finding exciting new applications. less

How to Get Rid of Shin Splints
Edited by Blake T, Thornsten, Jeff, Andy Zhang and 36 others
Shin splints can cause pain and hamper training, but with proper care you can overcome them quickly. Read on to find proven techniques to reduce and eliminate them. This article will give you very easy to follow, step-by-step instructions.
1Know what causes shin splints. Shin splints are caused by high impact on your heels, such as hurdling, running, long-jumping, triple-jumping, pole-vaulting, and jump roping. Other factors can also add to them, like old shoes, running surface, excessive training, and running form.Ad
2Get new shoes. If you have been running in your shoes for over 3 months, you should consider replacing them. Running shoes take stress off your legs by cushioning every step you take. A good pair of shoes that fits well can help a lot.
3Run on soft surfaces. Try to find softer surfaces to run on such as a grassy park or a dirt trail. Running on pavement creates extra stress on your legs. Don't switch back and forth from hard to soft during the same run.
4Rest. If your shin splints have gotten to a point where they hurt even when you're not training, then you need to take at least a couple days off, maybe a week or two.
5Don't run when it hurts. Don't run longer than your shins can take. Pay attention to how your shins feel and when you can sense pain stop running and go home. Some days this may happen after you've only run a mile; other days you'll last much longer. Eventually your shins will get stronger and you'll be able to run as long as you'd like. When your shins need rest, try another activity like biking or swimming. That way you can still stay in shape while not hurting your shins.
6Lose weight. Lots of adults in their 20's begin to gain weight and don't realize that this is why their shins and knees can't take as much pounding as they used to. Guess what? Your eating habits have finally caught your metabolism and it's time to start eating less. If you eat less and continue running, you are bound to lose some weight.
7Do feet exercises. Tap your feet up and down while you're sitting down. When you're in bed, move your toes back and forth. Exercises such as these help build the muscles around your shins which will support your shins more while you're running.
8Start every run with a shin splint exercise. You'll go 25 paces angling your feet/ankles in 6 different positions. There are 3 toe exercises and 3 ankle exercises. Jog lightly, on your toes with your toes pointed forward for 25 paces. Then turn your toes in (pigeon toed) and jog, still on your toes for 25 paces. Now turn your toes out and jog on your toes for 25 paces. Now land lightly on your heels with your toes pointed up. First straight forward. Then pointing up and inward, then up and outward. After about 2 weeks, your shin splints should minimize or disappear.
9Stretch your calf muscles! Tight calf muscles can contribute towards many lower leg injuries including shin splints. Try stretching the calf muscles, ensuring you target both Gastrocnemius and Soleus, several times a day. Hold each stretch for 20-30 seconds and repeat 2-3 times.
10Get some sports massages. Sports massages are fantastic for treating many sporting injuries. They are especially useful for loosening the calf muscles and breaking down any scar tissue.Ad
- If shins are painful, stop right away. Training through it makes it worse and thus they will take longer to go away. Its a serious pain!
- Ice. Ice baths for about 8-10 minutes should help. Just make sure you rest and sit afterwards.
- Hot and cold therapy can also help with the blood flow. Keeping your feet in a cold bucket for 10 minutes and changing to hot water for a few minutes. It can do wonders for recovery and relaxing the tibialis muscles.
- Fill a disposable cup with water and freeze it. Then when it's frozen, run the cup under water to get the ice chunk out. Rub this chunk on your shins (or whatever is hurting you) for 10-20 minutes. Do this every night.
- Consider using inserts in your shoes. These help you to run better and provide good arch support.
- If you push your shins splints too hard, they can develop into stress fractures, which will take even more recuperation time. If your shins start to hurt badly on the bone rather than the tendon or muscle, tell a doctor. This could be the beginning of a stress fracture and need to be treated.

Travel Blogs from Orlando
I went to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. To get there, I flew on a plane. I stayed at the DoubleTree Suites by Hiton in the Walt Disney World Resort. I went to Disney's Animal Kingdom and had so much fun. I went on all the ridesand I got to see all the Disney characters. After that, I went to the beach and just relaxed for the rest of my trip, …
The Impossibly Fun Visit: Part 2!
... training was complete following my first two weeks here, the time has literally flown by sooooo fast. Once the time came for my parents/brothers visit in February, I don't know where the time has gone. Today, I work from 4-11:30, and it will be my last Friday/Saturday closing shift at DisneyQuest-insane! I have tomorrow off, as I will be shadowing Billy at the D23 Expo tomorrow at the Contemporary! I better go for a walk now, as I have to leave for work in about 2 hours. Have a magical day!

Historical Traveler Reviews DoubleTree Suites By Hilton Hotel Orlando - Lake Buena Vista
Outstanding Experience
I, like others, was concerned about several of the negative reviews on the property. However, as a faithful member of the Hilton family of hotels, I've got to say this is one of the best properties I've stayed at. It has minor faults like all places, but it is optimized for a Disney visit with children because of its relative location to the parks and downtown Disney; it's also close to Apopka-Vineland road, which has not only a host of familiar restaurant chains, but also several grocery stores from which to buy things like in room snacks and avoiding high room service charges--all within walking distance!.
Excellent Place to Stay
After making reservations I read the reviews and was concerned. My concern was for nothing! I was very pleased with the room, service, pool, breakfast, bus transportation and staff,. The ONLY problem encountered was service at the resturant (late, after 9pm). Over all I woud recommend this motel to anyone planning a trip to Disney or surrounding area.
Great hotel. Wonderful experience.
My family stayed at the Doubletree for 2 nights in Feb. 2004. This was our first trip to Disney World with our 2 boys - ages 3 and 5. The location of the hotel and its amenities could not have worked out better. The hotel staff was extremely accomodating and the rooms were perfectly sized for the family. The large suite room with its own tv allowed my wife and I to wind down after the kids went to sleep. The free breakfast buffet was fantastic and the gameroom, pools and other features were a nice treat. The hotel location just inside the main gate was very convenient. The free shuttle bus service to the theme parks was dependable and comfortable. We also liked the fact that we were so close to non-Disney amenities and restaurants. A grocery store nearby was a great source of cheaper snacks etc. We would definitely recommend this hotel to other families. A great value and a great hotel!!
Pleasantly surprised with service and hotel
My family and I just returned from a week stay at this Doubletree.
Not worth the money
This hotel is old! The advertisement said it was 'recently renovated', but the bathroom was dingy, towels were thin, and the bed was uncomfortable. Will never stay there again. Paint on coffee table and breakfast table was peeling. Doors dividing the living area from the bedroom were broken and needed fresh paint as well. Fitness room is the same size as the couch and you have to go outside to get to it! Odd smell throughout the hotel. Wouldn't recommend this one to my dog.
Great Stay Great Price Great Staff
We booked our reservations before checking into reviews and we appalled by the reviews we found on this hotel prior to our trip! Based on the reviews we were tempted to scramble around and find a different place to stay but our rates were so insanely good we didn't dare. I am so glad we decided to be brave! This hotel was not only clean and friendly but we didn't have to drive any place since the bus picked us up and dropped us off with accuracy. We stayed for 7 days with 2 adults and 1 child. The room serivce was pricey but when isn't it? We were quite pleased with the room, the pool was fun and clean and not as occupied as one would think for the season. All in all we would not hesitate to stay there again when we go to disney next. I hope this helps and you have a great time at your stay at this hotel, my husband said that the reason it got such a horrible review is that when people are satisfied they don't worry with commenting so it's typically the grumpies that have something to say. With that in mind I simply had to come and toss in my two pennies! :-) We stayed there in September of 2003!
Family Plus
I was very pleased with our accomodations at this hotel, especially for the low price. I was attending a conference but thought the room and hotel was well suited for a family trip to Disney World. The rooms were some of the largest I've ever stayed in. The 2-room suite would comfortably accomodate 6-7 persons and they kitchnette is great for those of us who don't like to eat out every meal. The staff was very friendly and I would definitely stay here again.
Terrific experience!
After reading several negitive reviews I almost decided to stay somewheres else. Glad I didn't chage my reservation. Our stay here was great. From the moment we checked in the staff was friendly and very helpful. The person selling tickets to the parks was wonderful....without her advice we would have missed Animal Kingdom, which was one of the highlights of our trip. The suite was attractive, clean, comfortable, and very spacious. The location is perfect for people planning on doing the Disney attractions. The hotel transportation was always on time and took us to exactly where we wanted to go. Plus the easy walk to Downtown Disney is an added plus, for evening entertainment. The pool and hot tub was very comforting after long days of doing the parks. We would stay here again.....without a second thought! I am a very demanding person.....so it takes alot to please me........Doubletree made our stay great!
Dissapointed by Doubletree
We stayed at this property for 7 days during the last week of June 2003. We opted for this property because it offered the only all suite hotel on Disney property, although now we wish we would have paid the extra money and stayed on at a Disney-owned hotel. We received a fairly good rate ($139 a night excluding taxes) and there were four people in our party, three adults and one child. After our stay we would not stay here again. I have stayed at other Doubletree hotels and this one is below average. I guess Hilton does not need to keep up this property since Orlando and Disney are such a popular destination and this one is on Disney property. The decor is colorful and bright and the staff at the front desk is okay. The amenities were second rate. The children's check in counter and special gift consisted of a baloon and a 69 cent toy pulled out of a bucket.The room was second rate. The room smelled musty. The hotel had someone from engineering change the the filter in the air conditioning unit which helped for about 15 minutes. We were also told to keep the A/C at 67 degrees or lower to help draw out the moisture. This did not help as the furniture, bedding and carpet was embedded with mildew. While looking inside the A/C unit when the engineer change the filter, it was clear to me that the unit had not been cleaned, ever. I ran out to a store and bought a can of Lysol and sprayed everything down. This helped slightly. I know that Florida is humid why is it that some hotels in Florida control mold and mildew and others do not?The restaurant (Streamers) was below average. The food choices for dinner were limited and the "salad bar" has three items.
Great for families!
Just returned from a few days at this hotel (Oct 2002). This is a great choice for families, primarily from a convenience and "value for money" perspective. Each suite has its own sink, microwave (old model), small fridge and table/chairs for dining. Eating breakfast/supper in your hotel room can be a great cost savings! A free shuttle bus passes the hotel every 30 mins to bring you to any one of the 4 disney parks. Outdoor pool area is nice. True - the suites are a bit worn from wear, but are clean nonetheless and quite comfortable. The staff were nice-- helpful and attentive. I certainly plan to return.

This first volume, a three-part introduction to the subject, is intended for students with a beginning knowledge of mathematical analysis who are motivated to discover the ideas that shape Fourier analysis. It begins with the simple conviction that Fourier arrived at in the early nineteenth century when studying problems in the physical sciences--that an arbitrary function can be written as an infinite sum of the most basic trigonometric functions.
The first part implements this idea in terms of notions of convergence and summability of Fourier series, while highlighting applications such as the isoperimetric inequality and equidistribution. The second part deals with the Fourier transform and its applications to classical partial differential equations and the Radon transform; a clear introduction to the subject serves to avoid technical difficulties. The book closes with Fourier theory for finite abelian groups, which is applied to prime numbers in arithmetic progression.
In organizing their exposition, the authors have carefully balanced an emphasis on key conceptual insights against the need to provide the technical underpinnings of rigorous analysis. Students of mathematics, physics, engineering and other sciences will find the theory and applications covered in this volume to be of real interest.
The Princeton Lectures in Analysis represents a sustained effort to introduce the core areas of mathematical analysis while also illustrating the organic unity between them. Numerous examples and applications throughout its four planned volumes, of which Fourier Analysis is the first, highlight the far-reaching consequences of certain ideas in analysis to other fields of mathematics and a variety of sciences. Stein and Shakarchi move from an introduction addressing Fourier series and integrals to in-depth considerations of complex analysis; measure and integration theory, and Hilbert spaces; and, finally, further topics such as functional analysis, distributions and elements of probability theory.less

Haj commercialization will continue – it's human nature
As the Saudi Deputy Prime Minister announces a Dh21 billion dollar development plan for holy sites in Mecca, Kipp can see that the commercialization of Haj will continue for a while yet.
November 21, 2010 2:11 by Eva Fernandes
With Haj season just finishing, reports of billion dollar plans to further develop Saudi holy sites are emerging.
Currently there are projects worth $20 billion underway in Mecca alone, according to Banque Saudi Fransi. And operating in the holy site is no cheap affair: in fact a square meter of land in Mecca is estimated to cost $13,000. Developments are as varied as the completion of the $2 billion Mecca Metro or the construction of five star hotels complete with their very own spas. But the developments are gradually stirring a backlash, and analysts are now beginning to ask: how much further can Haj commercialization go?
This week, Gulf News reported that Prince Nayef Bin Abdul Aziz, the Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister of Saudi Arabia, has announced a decision to invest almost $6 billion in development projects involving holy sites in Makkah. What kind of projects? Well for one thing, the government has been looking to develop a unique transportation system to reduce the usual hours-long traffic pilgrims often have to endure.
Currently, pilgrim transportation is big business. A Jeddah-based newspaper reported that the revenues pilgrim transportation companies made this year totaled $173 million. The companies that operate under Saudi Arabia's General Syndicate of Cars are estimated to have transported 1.65 million pilgrims this season using a fleet of 19,200 buses, which together offer capacity of 900,000 seats.
That number is surely going to significantly reduce upon the completion of the $2 billion Mecca Metro, which is set to be finished next year (until which time it is reserved for use by only Saudi and GCC citizens). A demonstration that it is the government, in fact, spearheading the drive to modernize Holy Sites.

Summer repair and renovation projects at five of Bernards Township's six schools are "okay on timeline" as far as being finished in time for school to start, said Schools Superintendent Nick Markarian.
The $606,000 worth of projects, paid for by funds set aside in the 2012-13 school budget, began after plans for the work were approved by the in late June.
One of the most visible projects underway now is at the where Markarian said an outside contractor is repairing wood that had deteriorated at the soffit and fascia of the roof line of the original structure, built just over 100 years ago.
Some of the design work for some of it was provided by the township, he said. The contractor also is working on the handicapped access ramp to the school cafeteria, he said.
The school district is not borrowing any money to perform the work, Markarian said earlier this summer.
Approved and planned projects for this summer also include the replacement of the handicapped access ramp also to the gym at Liberty Corner School. Earlier this summer, the township was assisting with work to shore up retaining walls behind the school off Church Street.
Other work on the drawing boards for summer:
Floor replacement in cafeteria, repairs to canopy over front sidewalks at school off Peachtree Road.
Replace carpet with tile in several rooms, repairs to old front entrance repairs (paint, stairs and handrails); spot maintenance to pointing on old building, minor brick repairs, cupola replacement on old building off West Oak Street.
One interior wall added to create another office in the guidance suite (for a secretary that was moved to that location) at campus off South Finley Avenue.
Maintenance work in the auditorium includes new carpet and paint floor; some replacement lockers in the 400 wing.
During budget discussions earlier this spring, a number board members, including William Koch, who heads the board's facilities committee, have said that schools have many maintenance and repairs issues that have not been addressed in a long time. While some projects can be put off and funded in future years, other tasks require more immediate attention, according to Koch and other board members.
The Township Committee and Board of Education members also agreed that the township would provide assistance, particularly with planning, for school projects where possible in the overall interest of keeping costs down.

Dave Dyer
---- — Pat Lacroix's junior season at Central Catholic is one that many wrestlers would die for.
He won the Division 2 North crown at 120 pounds, finished second at the Division 2 state meet, came in fourth at New England and compiled a sterling 51-5 record, which set a school record for wins in one season.
It was the best campaign of any of the Lacroix brothers, besting anything his older brothers, Tom and Chris, had accomplished at Central. Tom came closest, wrestling to 47-5 and finishing fifth in New England his senior year.
Clearly, it was a season to be proud of for the Salem resident, right? Not exactly.
"It was a great season, but I was expecting to win everything," said Lacroix, who entered the season with an impressive career record of 126-27. "I'm proud of what I did, but I was disappointed, too."
Up a weight class to 126, Lacroix is hoping to fulfill his goals this year.
"I'm definitely hoping to win it all this year — state, all-state and New England," he said. "I'm also shooting for the school record in wins. I need 52 this year to pass Ryan O'Boyle And Joey Fendone (both at 177).
"I feel stronger at this weight class and I feel good about the way I'm wrestling."
Lacroix, who finished second at the highly regarded Lowell Holiday Tournament last week, certainly has plenty of experience. He's been wrestling since he was 6-years-old and he's been training with top-notch competition for years, including Central teammate and two-time New England champ O'Boyle the last two years.
"That definitely helped me a lot," said Lacroix, who often works out now with highly touted freshman Brandon Desfosses. "He showed me how to scrap and scramble and get out of bad positions.
"Having him as a drill partner was great for me. It was like an all-out battle every practice. We really went after each other."
That experience should pay off this year, although 126 pounds is not an easy weight class.
Just from this area is Methuen standout Christian Monserrat, who is undefeated, a two-time New England finalist and is a stunning 92-2 in that time, and Pinkerton sophomore Jean-Luc Lemieux, who was one of the premier 106-pounders in New England last year.
But Lacroix, like all the good ones, remains confident and, despite his already long career on the mat, is looking forward to wrestling in college.
He has already been accepted by Roger Williams College and WPI, the latter of which is where Tom attends.
Kings of the Ring
Today's first edition of "Kings of the Ring" shows just how strong the Merrrimack Valley region is, with certain weight classes standing out.
The 126-pound weight class includes two potential New England finalists in Lacroix and Methuen's Christian Monserrat, who is already a two-time New England runner-up, as well as potential placers in Timberlane freshman whiz Ryan Peters and Pinkerton sophomore Jean-Luc Lemieux, who couldn't even make our top 3.
Another rugged weight class is 106, led by Lowell Holiday Tournament champ Tyler Fitzpatrick of Timberlane and includes Lawrence's Hector Reynoso and Methuen freshman Bill Wehring, who was second at the Frmingham Tournament. North Andover's Danielle Coughlin is also in the mix.
Finally, to cite just one more example, check out 132. Methuen's Paul Sughrue heads the list, but Salem's Tyler Siverhus and North Andover's Zane Melillio, who was a champion at the Marshfield Tournament, are both exceptional.
All, however, may be looking up at Mt. Anthony transfer Miguel Calixto, a three-time Connecticut state champion who looked invincible while winning the Lowell Holiday Tournament.
Any suggested additions or corrections to any weight class should be emailed to me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Of course, the best way to settle debates is on the mat but, unfortunately, the top wrestlers rarely see each other.
The Marshfield and Framingham tournaments are first-class, no doubt, but it'd be great if North Andover and Methuen joined the other strong teams and individuals at the Lowell Holiday Tournament.
