Zooey Deschanel recently spoke to Allure magazine and talked a bit about her own body image in comparison to the Hollywood norm.
"Some people around me, they're like 89 pounds," Deschanel said. "I'm not going to say I'm a big girl. I'm a very small person, but I'm a healthy weight. That might be a little weird for Hollywood."
Like her peers, Deschanel does care about her diet, but says she doesn't obsess about it. Her diet consists of vegetables, grains and protein.

Internet speed dropped drastically a month ago, can't use Internet properly
Likes # 0
Posted October 5, 2013 at 3:51PM
I live with my family, and last November, we got BT Infinity fibre-optic, and it's been great for 10 months. We were getting speeds of 50Mb/s down, and our computers were wired up with Homeplugs.
However, a month ago things started to go badly. Our basic Internet speed dropped significantly (as in, it halved), and Homeplugs aren't giving us the connection we need. After having done quite a bit of testing, we've come to the conclusion that my brother's new computer (he made it himself, out of crappy parts that keep breaking) is the problem, or at least one of the problems.
When his computer is turned off, our speeds are okay. I get 20Mb/s down (which is, of course, a MASSIVE drop from a consistent 50). As soon as his computer is switched on, however, our Internet is destroyed. Right now, he's got it on and I am getting 8 down and 11 up with my homeplug in, and 2 down/6 up with the homeplug out. It's pretty horrendous.
I guess his computer is just sucking in power, but I really can't figure out just how it works - but it is killing our Internet, one way or another. I thought perhaps it's downloading stuff all the time, but this happens when his computer is on Sleep mode and when it's disconnected from the Internet.
Finally, the homeplugs aren't giving me the right speed. When I run a speedtest on my laptop right by the router, I can get 35 or so down; however, my computer is currently getting 8 down with the homeplug connected. It used to be essentially a wired connection, but now it's getting nothing like that.
Any advice? What could be wrong with his computer? (And what might be wrong with the homeplugs?)

Sky Diving at Denali National Park? A Florida-Based Company Thinks It's a Great Idea
Jimi Whitten -
Some interesting ideas, and I appreciate your sharing them.
However, while a "signed waiver of liability if someone is lost or harmed" may or may not deal with any potential legal issues or costs, it doesn't seem remove the park's obligation to respond and rescue people who are injured - or worse. Especially in a remote location like Denali, who else is there to handle a potentially difficult rescue in such challenging terrain?
Yes, most parks, including Denali, get invaluable help and support at times from the military, state and local agencies and volunteers in emergencies, but the park still normally has to take the lead when things go wrong on NPS property, irregardless of who is legally liable for the situation.

Have them sign a waiver clearing the NPS of liability if someone is lost or harmed. Limit the number of flights or days (say two or four days a month) and have each vendor cut the park in for 25% of the cost of the adventure. Beyond that - slam pandora's box shut with a firm EACH PPLICANT FOR ADVENTURE WILL BE AT THE DISCRETION OF NPS! The park is clear of liability, they firmly state that they get to decide on applicants on a case by case basis and they make a little much needed maintenance money.

NPCA: Climate Change Greatest Threat Facing the National Park System
"All catastrophic climate change predictions depend on the idea that small amounts of warming will themselves cause larger amounts of warming. This goes beyond the complexity of the original equation, and requires a shocking amount of voodoo and guesswork, to come to a conclusion that is wholly counterintuitive."
Why do you think it requires a shocking amount of voodoo and guesswork? It's actually based on solid science. We have extensive records of climate changes over hundreds of thousands of years. The connection between the ice ages and the Milankovitch cycles (variations in the earth's orbit) are well established and yet those variations aren't remotely large enough to cause climate change of that magnitude on their own. Clearly they triggered something else much more significant.
It was also counterintuitive (to some) once that the earth is not at the center of the universe. Nor do I think it is counterintuitive. It is easy to see that the melting of sea ice, ice caps and glaciers will cause the planet to reflect less heat and absorb more, and that the melting of permafrost leads to more greenhouse emissions.
The evidence that positive feedbacks play a strong role initially after a smaller effect triggers the start of a climate-changing episode is overwhelming. Negative feedbacks are strong, but kick in much later, which is why climate change periods don't lead to ice worlds or a Venus-on-earth.
I think that in the end, the question is this: are people willing to follow the science where it leads, whether or not the result is intuitive to them, or will they always see another conspiracy when they don't like the results of the research.

NPCA: Climate Change Greatest Threat Facing the National Park System
Of course, there are large uncertainties involved in forcasting climate change. Climate change specialists work with uncertain data, alternative mathematical models, competing models, and full quantitative uncertainty analysis. Much of the details are documented in the numerous technical reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (which few who have commented thus far on NPT seem to have taken the time to study).
The overall IPCC conclusion, with 90% certainty, is that the present trends in climate change is being caused by anthorpogenically enhanced levels of greehouse gases.
Here is a link to an extensive 2007 technical summary from the IPCC on the physical science basis for their conclusions that it is highly likely, even when accounting for all known sources of uncertainty in data and models, that the present increases in global warming are anthropogenic (i.e., not from sun spots or from insect gases).
It seems to me that one of the first steps of human-assisted climate change deniers is to lable the IPCC as a "political" rather than a scientific organization. This to me is an easy tactic used to debunk the concern and to argue against the commitment of any societal resources to combat global warming. The global warming deniers recognize that few individuals have the time or patience to digest the scientific literature to independently evaluate the overall merit of the scientific argument. However, when such an independent service is provided by the IPCC, it's simply attacked as being without appropriate credentials.
Now with regards to our national parks, I believe that it is perfectly appropriate for the NPS to become engaged in public awareness education about real and potential threats to park resources and to the park experience. What is delivered in official programs, however, should always have a basis in scientific fact. Public education about the potential impact of global climate change on our parks is a legitimate NPS function. Pubic education about other potential threats is also appropriate.
Whether or not climate change is the single most important threat to our parks depends on one's overall perspective. It depends whether one's outlook extends only to the next park visit, to future visits over the next decade, or whether one is looking at the future of parks over the next 100 to 1000 years. A perspective over the next 10,000 to one million years will likely produce other priorities.

And let's not forget the issue of park overflights, a contentious matter in places like Grand Canyon and Hawaii. Does Denali have an overflights management plan?
But what also seems to be overlooked or trivialized by the folks at Incredible Adventures is Denali is a national park, not a theme park. There are plenty of adventures to be had in Denali, and those typically are muscle-powered and rightly so.
Beyond that, there are plenty of mountains outside the national park that would give just as many thrills.

NPCA: Climate Change Greatest Threat Facing the National Park System
I'm afraid the comments section of National Parks Traveler is, if anything, a less suitable place to get into intricacies of climate dynamics than an NPS visitor center. And it strays far from the original point of the post and the comment thread.
But since you insist on an answer, Richard, I respond that your question is invalid. (This is the correct answer to a lot of life's questions--ask a philosopher!) You seek a simple answer to a question that defies simple answers.
Let's re-phrase the question: You want to know whether an increased proportion of carbon molecules in the atmosphere will cause the planet's aggregate average temperature to A.) Increase, or B.) Decrease. What this question fails to recognize is that there is an unfathomable number of constants and variables affecting that equation. Many, if not most, of those constants and variables are debatable, unknown, or unknowable. Some cannot be measured with any technique we have. Some, we measure entirely wrong. Of some, we are entirely unaware. Some act in completely screwy ways that we don't understand. Many affect each other in real time. Many have effects that don't manifest for years or decades. Most are of infinitesimally small effect.
In concrete terms, those variables include the entire global atmosphere, all liquid, gaseous, and frozen water on Earth, a wide variety of geological factors, every living thing, including rainforests, ants, and humans, the position and mass of the Moon, and any and all solar activity, or lack thereof. We know that the Earth's climate has varied in the past--this is not an insignificant point. So whatever the role of greenhouse gases, we know that some of these other variables can have an impact far larger than anything we have actually observed from CO2.
This is why it is fabulously difficult to solve for the effect of carbon gases on global temperature. And that's assuming that the desired solution is itself a valid [url http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/03/070315101129.htm]concept[/url].
Then there is the matter of feedback loops. All catastrophic climate change predictions depend on the idea that small amounts of warming will themselves cause larger amounts of warming. (This is reflected in Ray Bane's comment, and every claim that it is already, or may soon be, "too late.") This goes beyond the complexity of the original equation, and requires a shocking amount of voodoo and guesswork, to come to a conclusion that is wholly counterintuitive. In the macro view, the physical history of these systems shows that in the most recent few millions of years, the Earth has been fairly steady. An Ice Age here, a great drought there; these things are normal, and do not lead to catastrophic, cascading changes. Yes, massive glaciation across the upper Midwest would be terribly inconvenient, but it's happened before, and life went on. It is the very existence of life, in all its glorious variety, which illustrates that the earth's climate, as a whole, possesses positive dynamic stability.
That is, when something like CO2 concentration gets out of whack, the system as a whole compensates. It's not a conscious thing; rather, the system can exist only because it compensates. Otherwise, it would have spun out of control eons ago, and would never have attained the stability necessary for millions of years of evolution. A simple and familiar illustration of positive dynamic stability would be vegetal processing of CO2. If increased CO2 concentrations (natural or anthropogenic) warmed the Earth's climate, one important result would be an increase in vegetation, as ranges and growing seasons expanded. Greater plant growth would consume more CO2 and sequester it in solid organic matter, leading eventually to a reversion to the mean--less atmospheric CO2, cooler weather, decreased range, less plants. This is merely an example to illustrate the concept, though I stress that this interaction is described by the same great equation that we previously arranged to solve for global average temperature. It has just as many constants and variables, and is just as difficult to test.
Did anyone bother reading all that? Now would be a good time to mention that I gave up on my scientific career goals somewhere around 10th grade, when I figured out that my chemistry teacher was a schmuck, and that I sucked at math. But I was around long enough to learn that science is about debate, not consensus. (Would now be a good time to talk about eugenics, and how nasty things can become when scientists convince politicians that they've figured it all out?) Instead, I'm just a historian. A historian with enough career ambition not to put his name on comments that, I hope, have been reasonable and insightful, but that are contrary to the prevailing political and organizational winds.
Now, here's what I want out of this. I don't want to convince anyone that I know everything, or anything, about climate science. I don't want to convince anyone that global warming is a myth or a hoax; I don't have the scientific moxy to do it. But I do want every reader to stop caricaturing their political opponents! Each camp is made up of a range of people, including some on both sides who contribute nothing more than annoyed scoffs. There are enough evasions and logical fallacies bandied about by both sides to make Aristotle cry. But there are also people who know what they are talking about, and are debating in good faith. Let each reader consider: If you brush these people and their arguments aside, you are no more than a scoffer, and you are not part of the debate--you have picked your team based on the color of their uniforms.
If you want to seriously consider skepticism about climate change, rather than dismissing it summarily because of the color of its uniform, I can certainly recommend starting with Warren Meyer's blog, www.climate-skeptic.com . He's serious, skeptical, and debates in good faith.

Verizon Wireless Wants Cellphone Tower Near Grant Grove in Kings Canyon National Park
Been there, done that. I've seen it from all sides. Having it there when the conversations were unwanted and not having it there when it would have been very useful and unobtrusive.
A couple of years ago I was backpacking in Yosemite. A Boy Scout group was next door and I woke up in the morning because one of the kids was talking on his cell phone with his folks. Granted I did call a friend from the top of Half Dome and Clouds Rest, but I placed myself far away from other people when I made those calls.
Now I do remember being in Grant Village a few days later and needing to meet someone there. Of course no cell phone coverage. If I didn't make the contact it would have been rather difficult to figure out what happened. Later I found myself at Stony Creek Lodge trying to make a reservation over their pay phone. That had to be the scratchiest land line phone I've ever used. I would have loved to have been able to use my cell phone.

I really wanted an answer to my question: What do the naysayers think happens to the planet when we put so much carbon into the atmosphere?
If there is a question as to what happens to all that carbon, perhaps the precautionary principle is the best way to treat the over abundance of carbon created by mans actions. Unless you don't care.

I think that Yosemite stopped its Fire Fall because it was not a natural part of the park, although for some reason they felt it necessary to keep the golf course. The fire fall attracted crowds into a meadow to watch the spectacle, and was ruining the meadow. If operating a hang gliding operation in Denali is NOT going to damage the environment, go for it. Otherwise forget it. I think that the Park Service sometimes has a double standard regarding what visitors may do in our National Parks.

MRC, If you can't dispute their evidence, call them names. I'm surprised to see you fall into the ad hominem trap. In the interest of civil discourse, ad hominems, appeal to ridicule (calling skeptics "fools"), and other attacks should stop.
As for the "consensus", that's an argumentum ad populum (Latin: "appeal to the people"), which in logic, is a fallacious argument that concludes a proposition to be true because many or all people believe it; it alleges that "If many believe so, it is so." There was once a majority of people who thought the Earth was the center of the universe.
There is plenty of room for debate, and those shutting down the debate--by name calling or other means--are displaying characteristics of intellectual fundamentalism and censorship.

Well MRC, temps have been cooling since 1998 when the last warming period seems to have peaked. I won't venture a guess as to why but remain content in the knowledge that the Earth is not static and change is the norm. We roll with the punches but ultimately our fate, as is the fate of all living beings, is extinction. 99% of all species that have ever appeared on this blue and green marble are now consigned to the category of total oblivion. Makes you really admire the clams, sharks and cockroaches for their tenacity.
NPCA: Climate Change Greatest Threat Facing the National Park System
Forget the ants, they are part of the cycle that is going on for millennia. Co2 in the biosphere is natural and the ecosystems and the global greenhouse is well adopted to it. The problem arises because we pull carbon dioxide from deposits were it was stored for millions of years and sequestered from the biosphere and release it by burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil.
This carbon dioxide is additional to the amount that the biosphere and the meteorological system is adopted to. And only a fool can think that this won't have consequences. It is this easy. Anyone who does not agree is either a fool or has a personal agenda.

Team preview: Colorado
The Blue Ribbon College Football Yearbook previews the 2006 Colorado Buffaloes, exclusively on Insider.
Dan Hawkins took two gigantic leaps of faith this off-season -- both of which were highly publicized. The first one, of course, was leaving Boise State, a program best known for its blue turf before Hawkins' arrival, to take over for Gary Barnett, who was fired last December after the Buffaloes collapsed midway through his seventh season at Colorado.
His new bosses at Colorado were no doubt impressed that Hawkins built Boise into a perennial Top 25 program and went 53-10 in five seasons there in large part because his teams lit up scoreboards with a high-octane offense.
But, Hawkins, the ultimate glass-is-more-than-half-full guy, has quite a chore ahead of him at Colorado, a program broken by scandal and humiliating defeats (most notably late-season losses to Texas and Nebraska by a combined score of 100-6).
"Gary has really gotten some great kids in here," Hawkins said. "I've been really excited about how the kids have bought in. Our guys jumped right in from Day One and didn't say, 'Hey, this is how we did that' or 'We used to do it this way.' They just do it how we want them to do it."
And at times, Hawkins purposely did it differently during spring ball -- to make football fun again for a lot of guys who have been through some hard times in Boulder. For instance, Colorado players had belly-slide contests in the snow. Linemen switched roles for 7-on-7 drills and played pitch and catch while backs and receivers took on defensive backs in blocking drills. Hawkins even gave his players golf clubs and had a chipping contest on the field.

Algeria takes fresh look at France
On Thursday, Algerians marked 50 years since their country won independence from France, ending decades of colonial rule. A key question now is what role awaits young Algerians like Mr. Osmane as aging leaders enter their twilight and a generation that has a much more pragmatic view of how their country should interact with France, and with the Western world, starts to take over. The Algeria this generation will inherit is a work in progress, in apparent mid-step between the socialist anticolonialism of decades past and a turn toward free-market economics and partnership with Western countries.
France and Algeria remain closely linked by, language, migration, and a complex history. For Osmane, a Paris-educated business consultant, the country that tortured his grandfather is also the one that helped offer him a path to achievement.
"I'd have liked to study in the UK or US, but it's more complicated," he says. "France for us is the gateway to the West."...

10 Best Small Towns in America
America's big cities may get all the splashy buzz, but for savvy travelers, our small towns are our best-kept secrets. In a time when "authentic" is a travel buzzword, these hamlets are attracting visitors with an often unexpected—and surprisingly sophisticated—array of independent and locally-minded cultural, outdoor, and culinary offerings, all minus the urban price tags.
The only downside to all this small town regeneration? Narrowing down this list to just 10 favorites. Our editors pored over the possibilities, ultimately picking the winners based on criteria like population (all are under 50,000 people), and draws like great local eats, interesting museums and cultural points, and noteworthy natural attractions or outdoor adventures. The result is a list that should inspire travelers of all walks to fill up the gas tank and hit the road.
Healdsburg, California
What it's Like: Napa and Sonoma's quieter wine country sister mixes contemporary cool with plenty of Norman Rockwell charm—not to mention mouth-watering eats and drinks.
Set about 65 miles from San Francisco, Healdsburg is not exactly an unknown—it's garnered its fair share of glossy magazine features—but the town of 11,254 manages to balance the hype with a relaxed pace and diverse price points, meaning visitors don't have to break the bank to enjoy the bounties of wine country.
Those who want to splash out can do so among the Bulgari bath products at Hotel Les Mars or in the Italianate Victorian Honor Mansion, complete with bocce courts and spa pavilions, then dine on homemade meatballs and thin-crust pizza at Scopa. The budget conscious should check into the LEED-certified h2hotel, home to a popular bar, and enjoy the free concerts in the town square and the charming country stores tucked among the lush wineries.
Bozeman, Montana
What it's Like: This Big Sky Country college town is a nature-lover's paradise, no matter the season.
Founded in the late-1800's to service travelers along a mining trail, Bozeman today is home to 37,280 permanent residents, as well as the fluctuating student population of Montana State University. The college presence lends the place an arty vibe; popular activities include the year-round Bozeman Symphony Society and summertime Shakespeare in the Parks. The mix of faculty, students, cowboys, outdoor enthusiasts, and the odd celebrity has also elevated the dining scene; The rotating menu at John Bozeman's Cafe in the historic downtown might feature Jamaican jerk chicken, while the bison burgers and Kobe beef at Montana Ale Works pair perfectly with the 40 beers on tap. Hotels like the Gallain River Lodge, set on a 350-acre working ranch, and the Lehrkind Mansion, a former brewer's residence-turned-B&B, make ideal bases for fly fishing, skiing, rafting, and exploring Yellowstone National Park.
Sedona, Arizona
What it's Like: Red-rock panoramas and the mythical "vortex" energies set the scene for this spa and wellness haven.
The striking vistas and natural splendors that once inspired artists like Max Ernst and countless Western filmmakers are today attracting a mix of New Age healers, spa therapists, artisans, and wellness-seekers to this mellow desert town of just over 10,000 residents. Sedona is light on historic activities, so visitors are free to hike, mountain bike, or jeep-tour around the red-hued canyons and buttes; shop for jewelry and Native American crafts in the town center; and park themselves at spots like Elote Cafe for gourmet Mexican (and great views), or Dahl & Di Luca for elevated Italian. Many guests simply settle into a health-minded hotel and indulge in spa treatments, yoga sessions, and excursions to the Vortex, a rock outcrop that's said to be a powerful source of ancient energy. Accommodations here tend toward the upscale—favorites include the celeb-endorsed Enchantment Resort and its Mii Amo spa and hillside, cottage-style L'Auberge de Sedona—but deals can be found at places like the Sky Ranch Lodge, where some rooms have fireplaces or kitchenettes.
St. Augustine, Florida
What it's Like: Beautiful beaches and 500 years of Spanish Colonial history make this a find in northeastern Florida.
Settled 500 years ago by the Spanish (it's celebrating this milestone anniversary this year), St. Augustine is considered the oldest European-established city in the continental US. As a result, there is plenty in this town of almost 13,000 for history buffs, from the Colonial Spanish Quarter Museum and Dow Museum of Historic Houses, to well-preserved jails, schoolhouses, and cathedrals. To enjoy the sunshine, take in the sites at Fountain of Youth National Archeological Park, laze on the pristine beaches of Anastasia State Park, or take a carriage ride around the shop-and-gallery-lined old town. Accommodations run the gamut from solid chain outposts like the Hilton, to Fodor's Gold Award winner Casa Monica, while top eats include homemade breakfasts and lunches at The Bunnery, or the seafood, meat, and adventurous items (think alligator) at the aptly-named Salt Water Cowboy's.
Provincetown, Cape Cod, Massachusetts
What it's Like: Art, gourmet food, and a welcoming vibe make Cape Cod's smallest town a summer favorite, whether for a weekend, week, or month.
Though long-time visitors to Provincetown might bemoan its move from funky to upscale, even die-hards will appreciate the Cape Cod town's still-intact sense of diversity, community spirit, and slightly eccentric ways. Though the year-round population is just under 3,000, come nice weather, Commercial Street bustles with antique hunters and art enthusiasts, while Portuguese-American fisherman and cruise ship day trippers mix with the LGBT local community in enjoying the shops, nightlife, and shipping history packed within just 8-square miles. Drop your bags at the art-inspired Christopher's by the Bay or lively Crown & Anchor before heading to Bayside Betsy's for fresh seafood and harbor views, or beef Wellington and romance at Jimmy's Hideaway.
Brattleboro, Vermont
What it's Like: A rich cultural and political history mix with a vibrant contemporary scene to help keep this mountainside town decidedly independent.
Farmer's markets, gallery walks, arts festivals, indie stories, all surrounded by mountain views—this is the Vermont of your dreams. Home to 12,046 residents, Brattleboro retains the progressive cultural and political ties to its past (it was a counterculture hotspot in the '60's), while managing to feel more cool and hip than crunchy-granola. Get the ideal B&B experience among the canopy beds and fireplaces of Hickory Ridge House, set in an 1808 Federal Mansion, then venture into town to T.J. Buckley's, where just 18 diners a night are treated to a gourmet meal cooked in an open, theater-style show kitchen. No need to feel guilty: You can hike it all off the next day.
Traverse City, Michigan
What it's Like: Vineyards, craft breweries, cherry harvests, and gourmet shops and eateries are drawing foodies (including Mario Batali) to Michigan's northern shores
For years, this town of 14,894 on the shores of Grand Traverse Bay has tempted visitors with its natural wonders, which include freshwater beaches, skiing areas, forests, and the stunning Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes National Lakeshore. More recently, though, it's the food scene that's creating a buzz, thanks to kudos from magazines like Bon Appétit and chefs like Mario Batali, who makes his home here in the summer. With the largest tart cherry yield in the US (and a week-long Cherry Festival in July), as well as a number of award-winning vineyards and breweries along its peninsulas, Traverse City is home to notable restaurants like the farm-to-table Cook's House, and dessert mongers like Grand Traverse Pie Company (get the cherry pie, of course.) When you're ready to roll into bed, choose from an array of chains, B&Bs, or upscale getaways like the Grand Traverse Resort & Spa. Or make like Batali and rent a place for a summer filled with great eats.
Door County, Wisconsin
What it's Like: Five state parks, 300 miles of shoreline, hundreds of non-chain shops, galleries, and restaurants, all amid the beauty of Lake Michigan—need we say more?
Okay, so this isn't technically one town, but this whole country—population 27,961—is made up of notable small towns, each more charming than the last. Thanks to the county-wide outlaw on chain hotels, shops, or dining, you'll find hamlets teeming with cute boutiques, upscale galleries, and working artist studios, along with natural sites like Peninsula State Park and the beaches along Lake Michigan. Be sure to try the local favorite fish boil—a stew of whitefish, potatoes, and onions made outside in a cauldron—and the locally-grown cherries, which make an appearance in nearly every dish, from appetizer to dessert. Hotel favorites include the Edgewater Resort in Ephraim, set on a private stretch of shore, and the Juniper Inn B&B in Fish Creek.
Galena, Illinois
What it's Like: Just a few hours out of Chicago, find all the musts on a small-town wish list, from historic homes and trolley tours to homemade eats and friendly locals.
Born of the lead mine industry of the mid-1800's, Galena boasts rolling hills for skiers, and plenty of history, art, and cuisine for everyone else. Over 85 percent of the town's 19th-century buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places; to explore, hop on the 2.5-hour Galena Trolley Tour, which offers an overview of the historic districts, then pop into notable sites like the 1857 Italianate Belvedere Mansion, and the Ulysses S. Grant House, the former home of the 18th president. Enjoy dark stout and tapas at the Galena Brewing Company, or top-notch Italian at the unlikely-named Fried Green Tomatoes (those are on the menu, too), before retiring to the fireplaces and nooks of the Goldmoor Inn.
Walla Walla, Washington
What it's Like: An influx of quality hotels and dining have helped make Washington's thriving wine country so nice, they named it twice.
Since the late-1970's, over 100 vineyards and wineries have taken root in eastern Washington, helping to put Walla Walla (population 32,148) on the gourmet map. Get a taste for the award-winning reds at Gramercy Cellars, or enjoy sweet dessert wines—and a look at sustainable farming methods—at Amavi Cellars. Lunch at Monteillet Fromagerie is, of course, a cheese-lover's dream, while Saffron serves homemade pastas and cured meats on converted champagne riddling racks. Your room at the luxe Inn at Abeja, a restored turn-of-the-century farmstead, will most likely offer vineyard views, so you'll never be far from the vines.

Also forgot Ashland, Oregon - a small university town with good restaurants, beautiful nature walks/a park right in town and the world renowned/Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
Some nice choices and I would also add University towns - such as Eugene, Oregon, and Boulder, Colorado. Colorado Springs, Colorado is also nice - as is Park City, Utah.
Sedona is being killed by the Sedona airport. Our blood is full of jet fuel, people are dying from benzene, hexane, toluelene, xylene, 2 methylpentane, etc. from the jets landing and taking off here. My neighbor died last year at age 21 from liver cancer. We have a lot of teens who came down with cancer and they all live near the airport mesa located inside our town. My blood test is posted at closetheairport.com Aviations dirty secret, the Gulfstream jets dump jet fuel whenever they are too large to land at a small airport and get back off the short runway. The jets also lose fuel when they decelerate and this is often over someone's home. Sign our petition, Cathedral Rock is in the flight path of the airport! www.facebook.com/closetheairport
Some of these are not that small. I would replace Healdsburg with Sebastopol, and Sedona with Jerome. Personal faves in CA are Danville, Ferndale and Capitola.
Small-town life to bring us more of a relaxed feeling, away from the fast pace of the big city, I think I like this kind of life.
Sedona, AZ does NOT belong on this list. It is not a mellow desert town. The natural splendors are being overshadowed by commercialization. 3 million tourists… expensive celeb-endorsed, elevated and gourmet restaurants… upscale accommodations… Jeeps and helicopters… parking lots full… strict overzealous police enforcement… NOT a mellow desert town.
interesting, I just came through another best small towns in US article a few days ago.
These are great, but I think you forgot one! Kailua, Oahu - Kailua No Ka Oi!~

Title says it all!
I know I didn't and that was to get a six pack, haha. Naw, mine was to improve in my art and become more active on social media which I failed at!
Waaaa! So tell me what was your 2014 resolution? Did you accomplish it or not?
What is your 2015 resolution?
Mine is to become better at drawing the human anatomy! Plus finishes a sketchbook every two weeks once school gets out!

Over the course of the next several months, the "Champions" page will be going into a total redesign. I have not decided if I am going to put them on their own website, or leave them on this site. Whatever I decide, I will certainly post on here. The current "Past Champions" list will stay up (but no new ones will be added) until I get the new design built. STAY TUNED!

Perfect host, perfect location and perfect apartment.
Lane was extremely hospitable, his apartment was immaculate. Ideal location for those visiting New York. Would highly recommend to anyone!!!!
Lane's place was better than expected! The condo was clean, beautifully decorated, well equipped and clutter free. Lane provided a large wardrobe for guest belongings -- an unusual feature for most airbnb's. The king bed was comfortable and dressed with hotel-like bedding. Communication with Lane was prompt and clear. My husband and I would definitely stay at his place again -- if we can find dates that are available. We can understand why his condo is in such demand.
I was caught in a blizzard coming from Manhattan but Lane waited until I arrived somewhat behind schedule . The apartment was great ... Very comfortable , stylish and accessible . Hi quality appliances and fitout made for an easy time . A large bed and nice linen , quality towels ... All made a difference . I was there for 12 days so I add ample time to appreciate the area and the aoartment . Close to everything and nice views.
The fridge was generously stocked which i didn't expect and after 12 days it felt like home .thoroughly recommend it .
Lane's apartment was lovely. He was beyond an exceptional host with easy communication, great recommendations, and little treats for the stay. The apartment is a few blocks away from the L and right on the park. I would highly recommend this location for anyone visiting Williamsburg or Greenpoint, BK.
I think James Bond uses this apartment as a save house whenever he stays in NY. That's the impression I got when I entered the living room from the elevator door. The one bedroom apartment is very clean, modern and cozy. Lane was very accommodating and pays close attention to details. I would highly recommend this place gem whenever staying in NYC. 5stars, Thanks Lane!!
The listing is exactly how described and even better. The apartment is lovely. It has everything you could want or need. The bathtub is one of my favorite features. It very conveniently located to the train and restaurants and shops. The communication with Lane with easy and and seamless. I would highly recommend this apartment.
Lane this time around prepared his place on short notice and met me at a later hour to hand over the key...which was greatly appreciated. I had business in NYC back to back weeks and noticed how quiet his place is, modern, and clean. Just an overall comfortable stay!
I'm down to earth, easy going kind of guy. I love going out to shows and all the great restaurants in Williamsburg. The community here is great and hope you get a chance to stay for awhile. Its the best.

I don't mind lagers, I was just disallusioned that Beer Harmony picked a light lager when I made it blatantly obvious that I liked lots of alcohol, roasted malt flavors, to be dark as night... I guess what screwed me is when I said that I liked the song, "land down under" by Men at Work. If I use "bad moon rising" I end up getting the proper answer... Bad Moon Porter, but I really like "Land down under" better.

What is Loss Forgiven??? Was looking through my match history and one of the recent loss's says "Loss Forgiven" in red text instead of "Defeat". Anyone know what this means?
I believe it meant the server was having problems. and because it was the server issue it was "not your fault" and all losses arent recorded as a loss i think?
I believe this also happens when there is a leaver on your team. I had a game last night where the Miss Fortune on my team left at around 12-15 mins into the game. We lost, but in my match history I see "Loss Forgiven".
Its due to the ticker they implemented that lets RIOT staff know when the server is under alot of strain, they push the "button" and you dont lose ELO and what not when you lose.
Oh isnt it like you got the highest score on ur team but u lost?

Griffith has been a primary focus today due to flooding in Mirrool Creek and the approaching overland waters that are estimated to cover an area of 300km2. This area is being affected by unprecendented flooding and the SES has not had the ability to consult river gauges, that are often used in predictive modelling, because the water is flowing overland and not as a result of overflowing river systems. Roads to the South and East have been affected and for more information on current road closures please call Roads and Maratime Services on 132701.

Hi: 11° Lo:1°
By Chris Willmott Thursday 15 November 2012 Updated: 19/11 11:02
PEOPLE living close to HS2 railway line can find out full details about the compensation available.
A series of meetings will be held at location along the route between London and Birmingham over the next few weeks.
Representatives from HS2 Ltd and the Department for Transport will discuss the scheme which would give homeowners the option of selling their house to the government at market value plus 10 per cent up to £47,000 as compensation.
There will also be a voluntary purchase scheme for homes immediately outside the so-called safeguarded area to be sold at market value and a hardship scheme for people affected during the building process.
Consultation meetings take place in this area at:
- Burton Green Village Hall on Saturday, November 17.
- The Kenilworth Centre in Kenilworth on Tuesday, December 11.
- Loft at the Bluebell Centre in Chelmsley Wood on Thursday, November 29.
- The Sanctuary in Castle Vale on Tuesday, November 20.
HS2 will be built in two phases with the section from London to the West Midlands expected to open in 2026 with the second section to Manchester and Leeds and connection to Heathrow in 2032-33.
Alison Munro, chief executive of HS2 Ltd, said: "We do understand the impact it will have on people living close to the line and the Government has recently published a range of property compensation measures for consultation.
"The information events we are running are an opportunity for those directly affected to come and discuss the proposals in more detail with our property teams."

Two of my passions are cooking (Vegan, Macrobiotic, also viennese kitchen) and the city of Vienna and what it has to offer. I do yoga, jogging, walking and biking tours.
It's nice to meet all those people from all over the world and helping them through their way in Vienna. Vienna is not as famous as Paris or Londen, but has so much to offer, so many hidden interessting corners, full of history and art.

In May 2011, as tornado sirens sounded, hospital workers at St. John's Regional Medical Center rushed to pull 183 patients to safety as one of the largest tornadoes on record bared down on their southwestern Missouri city. Breaking glass and the roar of the powerful storm deafened the dark hospital as power was lost.
Dennis Manley, the hospital's director of quality and risk management, played a critical role as the hospital's incident commander following the deadly tornado. Guiding his hospital through a chaotic disaster was challenging but not completely unfamiliar territory thanks to training he received two years prior at the Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) in Anniston, Ala.
He attended the CDP's Healthcare Leadership for All-Hazards Incidents training in 2009, followed by Hospital Emergency Response Training for Mass-Casualty Incidents later that year. The course places emergency response providers in a realistic mass-casualty training scenario – a situation no one hopes to face, but Mr. Manley was faced with a similar situation as the tornado was bearing down on Joplin.
The CDP had a chance to catch up with Mr. Manley after the tornado, and he stressed the benefits of the CDP's hands-on training and the advantage of training in an actual hospital at the CDP's Noble Training Facility. He also stressed the fact that the training not only enhanced his ability to respond to a mass casualty incident, but also provided an example of the many emergency roles his staff would take on because of the tornado.
Mr. Manley also commented:
The CDP training is about as close as you can get to the real thing. I wanted realistic training and the CDP delivered. There is no substitute to real-life experience, but the CDP training mimicked it very closely.
By training in a hospital, the experience is more life-like and real. You feel like you are actually participating in a disaster, not just pretending. That makes it easier to apply what you have learned to the real thing. The CDP training helped me fulfill my role with more confidence.
While the positive feedback from past trainees is great, I'd really like to encourage emergency responders to come to the CDP and check it out for themselves. It's National Preparedness Month, so why not make a point to schedule training to ensure you and your staff have the skills needed for the next disaster. Whether you're an experienced professional or a freshly minted emergency responder, having hands-on training before an emergency can provide positive outcomes if disaster strikes.
And if you're looking for some more information, here are some other blog posts about CDP training:

Respond to Review of Bacio Italian Restaurante
by s144799
Review: This restaurant has AMAZING food. To all vegans who go to this restaurant: Don't be scared off by the fact that the restaurant doesn't mark vegan options because the chef will make anything on the menu vegan upon request, and caters to vegans all the time. The staff know exactly how to accommodate vegans. My experience with most Italian restaurants is that the pasta has egg in it and I'm stuck ordering garden salad with oil and vinegar dressing. Not Bacio. The cook actually knows his stuff. He has a dish using tofu to mock fresh mozzarella, and then adds tomato and basil, and it almost tastes like the real stuff. It brings back great memories of eating that with real cheese because I was a cheese person before i became a vegan. Would HIGHLY recommend to any vegan or anyone who wants great Italian food.

Haflong: In a major blow to militants operating in Dima Hasao district of Assam, security forces have apprehended the `commander-in-chief` of Dimasa National Revolutionary Front (DNRF).
Diamond Dimasa alias Pranjol Hojai was apprehended last night at Diyungmukh in a joint operation by police and army as part of the intensified drive against DNRF, formed in the district about 6 months ago, police said.
No arms were recovered from the insurgent leader, the police said.
The Front, some of whose cadres defected from Dima Halam Daogah (Nunisa faction), is engaged in extortions in the district and is associated with NSCN(I-M), the police added.

We stayed here for eight days and it was very nice. Originally we were given room #305, but the room above was leaking into our bathroom and we were moved to room #702 the next morning. Room #702 was bigger and had a great view of the lagoon and the ocean. The room was spotless and the bathroom was very clean. There is a refrigerator in the room as well as a microwave. The TV has many cable channels in English. The rooftop is a nice place to sit and have a drink. The staff is friendly and helpful.
The hotel is close to several restaurants and a Pueblo grocery store. The bus stop is just a few feet away with access to Old San Juan in about 10 minutes for only 75 cents. The taxi ride for two from/to the airport was $21. The area looks a bit sketchy, but we weren't afraid to be out after dark.
The only cons were the the bathtub doesn't drain well and the elevator is extremely slow.
I would recommend this hotel and would stay again.
