Dozer steals the show
On a normally uneventful Sunday afternoon last month, Rosana Dorsett called outside for her 3-year-old goldendoodle Dozer.
She couldn't find Dozer, which seemed odd to her since she has an electric fence and the dog isn't known to stray.
After a frantic e-mail to neighbors, Dorsett learned from a neighbor that there was a race going on that day and dog that looked like Dozer was seen crossing the finishing line.
"We started putting two and two together -- oh my gosh, he ran the race?" she said.
Dozer had bolted through his invisible fence to join a field of two thousand runners at mile five of the Maryland Half Marathon. He easily kept pace with the runners.
"He was just looking up and looking around at things and not paying attention to anyone in particular," said runner Dr. Kevin Cullen.
At two hours and 14 minutes, he crossed the finish line with dirty paws and wide, goofy grin that only a dog could have after such a feat.
Somehow, he found his way back home overnight, arriving dog-tired. Dorsett said he appeared to be in terrible condition and she was concerned for his health. He slept for about a day and a half afterward.
And after a visit to the vet, and rehydrating, Dozer was ready to run again.
He's since received a race medal and his finish line video has gone viral on Youtube. And he has 800 Facebook.com fans. He's also the race's top dog in fundraising for the University of Maryland's Greenbaum Cancer Center, where he has his own fundraising page.
"He's raised over $13,000," said Michael Greenbaum, co-founder of Maryland Half Marathon.
Dorsett says Dozer's longest training run for this race was a mile. But she's already started training him so they can run all 13.1 miles next year.
"A dog, especially like Dozer, is a great way for people to relate, come in, open their hearts," she said.

Skigo will be on-site for the Saturday and Sunday races providing wax recommendations and to talk with coaches & skiers. Saturday's races are downtown North Bay (the old train station) and should be exciting to watch!
A demo day is happening Saturday, 15 February at Highlands Nordic. We'll be on-site to talk with skiers about waxing, Skigo waxes, Skigo poles, etc. We'll have our fully line of Skigo poles for skiers to try out.
Congratulations to all of the athletes at Eastern Canadians. There was a lot of good skiing. Thanks to the organizers and volunteers for another smooth Easterns. An extra high-5 to all of the Skigo sponsored skiers. We're very proud to be helping with your dreams and hard work. Thanks to all of the teams for testing and using Skigo waxes.
It was a chilly weekend for racing but with a low humidity at -28C it was pretty good. It actually felt colder when it warmed up to -13C with higher humidity on Sunday. That's a segway to say the snow was dry for the loppet on Sunday meaning Skigo C380 was ideal for the -25C snow temp at the start. A key thing to remember is you want to polish C380 with a nylon brush to make sure any sharp edges, from scraping and brushing with the fine steel brush, get smoothed out.
We'll be on-site at Highlands Nordic for Ontario Cup #1. The snow looks good and the, of course, so do the trails. The white board will be up with recommendations early in the morning as usual. See you there!
We are wishing you, your family and friends a Merry Christmas. May you have lots of well groomed trails this holiday season to get out skiing. Be ye skiing for recreation, fitness or racing you all ave something in common -- a great passion for the outdoors and how well it can make you. If we don't see you on the trails then we also want to wish you a Happy New Year too. May all your skiing dreams happen this winter of 2014.
Congratulations to all of the skiers at this year's Masters Championship and thanks to the Arrowhead NSC for hosting a great event. While it was a warm week, the snow was deep so lots of good trails. We were here for the last two days of races and took some video and photos that we'll post on our Facebook page this week (you can ask for better copies too).
This was a really great weekend of races for the young kids. The weather was warm, with a bit of fresh snow and, most important, a huge snowball free-for-all! It was great to see the kids having fun while racing and while hanging out in the woods. Congratulations to everyone who raced and thanks to the Bruce Ski Club & volunteers for running the event. For the coaches and wax techs aiming to get the kickwax right this weekend it was a real challenge. With the temperature hovering around 0°C but moving up and down by a degree, and snow occationally falling, it was tough. Pre-testing on Saturday was difficult and didn't help for Sunday much. On Sunday everyone dialed in their kickwax at about +1°C only to see the temperature drop to -0.5° an hour before start (wind from the north increased causing this) and the kickwax change. Congratulations to everyone for surviving though this panic :-) Pre-temperature drop Skigo LF Orange was the best choice. After the temperature drop both HF Red and HF Violet were used (difference based on skis and skiers at this young age). Glide wax was a lot easier because, as many of you know, the Midgets Championships do not allow fluro toppers. So any of the Skigo Yellow HF, LF or XC glides were the choice for both days. We were happy to hear back from coaches that Skigo Yellow was beating the other brands.
It was a great set of races. The Walden facilities have really grown quite a lot since the last skiing event. Congrats to the Walden club for putting on a good event and all that construction for the buildings and trails!
Lappe Nordic and Big Thunder ski clubs joined forces to produce an excellent World Jr/U23 Selection Trials at the start of January. A large group of volunteers made sure there was more then enough snow on the trails. Overall the races were cold to very cold with the snow being very dry. This dryness created some interesting effects that made for some not ordinary wax selections. Congratulations to the OC and all of the volunteers for a great set of races. Ski*go HF Violet grip was regularly the choice for grip and glide with a kickwax with old and dry snow. Typically HF Blue kickwax would be the choice for this snow type and the temperatures. However, the lower fluoro content in the HF Violet is what helped give it a better release of the snow. This held true for the training day, 1st day of racing and the start of the 2nd day. Later in the 2nd day HF Red provided more grip as the tempurature warmed up. For the 3rd day (Sr/Jr Sprints) HF Violet kickwax was again the way to go! With the dryer humidity in the snow pack Green LF consistently held as the main underlayer for all of the days of training and racing. C110, introduced last season, with it's -10°C to -20°C range was ideal for the the skiathlon & Friday's OCup as the top coat. Saturday saw C110 powder covered with C105 solid as the magic mixture for top speed. The snow continued some transition Sunday with more humidity in it so C105 powder covered with C105 solid became the choice even with the very cold morning temperatures. Many different combinations were tried during testing each day of course. We're always happen to dissuss how choices 2-6 were for each day if you would like to talk about it at any of the races. Thanks to all of the teams for trying and using Ski*go wax during the trials. It's always great to hear from all of the coaches and wax techs after how well the waxes are performing! Finally, but certain NOT least: congratulations to all of the skiers selected for the World Jr/U23 team, especially Andy Shields with NDC, 1st U23 Skiathlon. Andy skied a great race and really worked hard in the last lap as the lead pack really pushed the limit. Andy is sponsored with Ski*go poles and roller skis.
We want to wish everyone a Merry (and very snowy!) Christmas!! The Yuletide Race at Highlands Nordic was blessed with some timely snowfall. There was a large group of people out to race and lots of spectators to cheers them on. With temperatures sitting at about -4°, high humidity and new snow the obvious waxes to default with were Skigo Orange HF topped with Skigo C105. This was a safe choice. We heard that the a lot of wind had been blowing the new snow around and this would mean broken, very sharp crystals. This would lead to some additional dry friction. So we tested Skigo Red HF and found its hardness made a slight improvement. Next we tested C110 and it came ahead of C105. This resulted in the final recommendation of Red HF + C110. While this was warmer then the recommended range for C110 the extra hardness with C110 for those sharp windblown crystals is what made it the top choice. Once the course was totally packed down at the end of the race the top test shifted back to C105 and Orange HF. Hope that information helps you with your next race! Cheers!
The winter season has begun west of Ontario with good snow. We hope you get a chance to ski on it! The East is very thin on snow, but there's hope for Christmas (fingers crossed)!! Our telephone number has been changed to 519-404-1742. You can call or text this number. The old number is now gone. This should keep make contact easier.
Roller skiing is swiftly upon us this spring. Skigo is pleased to continue offering the best classic roller ski available: the XC Carbon. The feel and response of these sweet skis is incredibly close to being on snow. Constructed of 100% carbonfiber with camber to provide a ride that is extremely smooth and non-fatiguing. Newly available for 2012 is the Skigo P5/7001 Classic roller ski. These aluminium framed roller skis provide excellent control and tracking to make your training sessions productive. The NS Carbon Skate provides a smooth, balanced ride that brings joy to every roller skiing session. With fenders & updated graphics for 2012. All Skigo roller skis are designed and built by Skigo.
The new Nordic racing squad in Norway is Team Skigo!
For the upcoming 2012/13 season we are starting to recruit Wax & Service Techs to help us be at more races and loppets throughout the winter. We are looking for enthusiastic people who are willing to learn the skills of waxing and testing skis. You do not need to be an expert already; there will be a full training session for all recruits. The basic skills needed to apply are that you can already ski classic and skate techniques -- this is needed for testing. Every Skigo Tech will be equipt with all of the Skigo waxes, poles, clothing, and other equipment. This means you will have the best kit throughout the winter. In addition to the training you will have contact with senior Skigo Techs to help you at any time. In return we ask each Skigo Tech to attend 4 days of races or loppets in the season. Beyond this you can do your regular skiing and your participation in races and loppets. If you are interested in doing more events then we have a remuneration schedule. For more information contact Skigo Canada by e-mail, telephone or in person. Let us know you're interested! Tell us where you're located and briefly your skiing background. This is an amazing opportuntity.
The 2012 Cross Country Nationals has concluded now to mark the end of the racing season. Many skiers are having withdrawls symptoms now because of how quickly the weather switched from winter to summer. Some lucky spots out west continue to get snow, so those lucky skiers should not experience symptoms for a while! All of the races happened under severe warmth and sunshine at Mont Ste Anne and the Plains of Abraham. Everyone was graced by the attendance of the National Ski Team (NST). The chance to see the speed of WC winners in person is of great benefit for everyone. Thanks to the two host ski clubs and the volunteers for running this event. The number of hours to prepare for and running this large an event is very, very high. We hope they are enjoying some deserved long sleeps. Thanks to all of the teams for testing and using Ski*go waxes; thanks also for your testing feedback. Ski structure played a large role in getting fast skis. We were happy so many clubs had a chance to borrow our tools and get some experience with the Speedy Rillers (e-mail us for technical sheets if you need one). We're starting to prepare for the summer now and, of course, next season. We'll see you in Callaghan Valley for the 2013 Nationals!

Review By: fenr1c | Posted: 17/10/2012
The Final Word
We have a game that is fast, furious and fun but does occasionally frustrate. Although a platformer, it is not for little kids, the humour is aimed at a fairly mature audience. It delivers a fun and challenging game.
You know from just the title alone that this is not going to be your normal, run-of-the-mill game. Indeed as soon as the title screen fades and it goes into the animated introduction, you know that you are about to embark on an adventure that can at best be described as unique and as off the wall as they come.
You are the Prince of Hell (well not YOU but then I guess you have figured that one out for yourself) and there nothing that you enjoy more than relaxing in the bath with your good friend, Ducky. In fact some might think you are a little too attached to Ducky then is reasonably healthy for you. But hey, aren't you the Prince of Hell and what you and Ducky get up too is nobody else's business but yours right?
But alas, those nosy paparazzi think otherwise. There you are, submerged in soapy water, not a care in the underworld. It's just you and Ducky or so you think. Suddenly you hear a noise and it becomes obvious that someone has been spying on you and has now got a set of photographs that you naturally want back. You ask, nay you demand that they return the photographs, but do they listen? Well if they did, the game would be the shortest in video game history! So armed with a bazooka, and ringed set of blades that you wear like a bathing ring, and a mean temper you set off on a quest to protect your dignity (such as it is) and reclaim those photographs!
What follows is a good old fashioned sideways scrolling platform shooter. Like games that have come before it such as Mario and a certain blue Hedgehog, our intrepid �ahem' hero, sets off on a set of adventures that will seem him jumping on floating platforms whilst dodging buzz saws, dispatching enemies that are foolish enough to try and stop him with all the malice that he can muster and drilling through crystals to get too gems that will serve as currency. This is so our hero can buy upgrades to his weapons, new weapons and skins so he can change the way he looks. Certain skins do provide bonuses though, such as enabling him to run a bit faster, jump even higher etc. etc. but these get unlocked as the game progresses. Weapons can be upgraded too and it isn't long before you swap out the bazooka for a machine gun.
Sounds simple enough and it looks so too, but don't be fooled. Just when you think that despite the storyline and the character, that this is nothing but a traditional platformer, then something happens that makes you do a 360 degree turn on your opinion. Mid-level bosses appear that require some thought as to how to deal with them. Some creatures for instance, are armoured, but thankfully the machine gun is armour piercing (now I would have thought that a well-aimed Bazooka shell would solve that problem, see what I mean?).
Use your weapons to wear the critters down and then prepare to play a button press sequenced mini game to deliver the killer blow, and then sit back and watch the more than surreal finishing moves that send them back to err hell. Bosses are tougher, but require the same principal. And don't be fooled into thinking that the projectile weapons are the only way to get rid of enemies. Some you will have to kill using the environment, such as toxic waste vats, blocks that are pushed over ledges to squash critters flatter than a pancake etc.
Once dealt with the screen is �splattered' with their remains in a most satisfactory manner! You can also use those blades I mentioned to do a sonic style spin attack as well. Other methods will become available to you as the game progresses.
OK now to get down to the meat and bones of the review and take a look at individual elements as well as the normal pros and cons.
Simple really, you move the rabbit with the left stick or d-pad. Jump with the A button, right button shoots the gun or bazooka, but aiming is done with the right stick. At first this seems a little clunky but you'll soon get to grips with it. You can use the Y button to zoom out of the screen and see where you have to go next, or the back button brings up a full map. From here you can see how many enemies you have nailed, how far into the level you are, and can see what enhancements you have bought from the shop.
Bright, colourful and cartoony for sure but capture the mood very well indeed. Textures are something that do not really come into effect here, but flame effects are well done as are the meatier explosions.
This again matches the action on screen very well, but it hardly counts as a memorable score, but it is more than suitable for the game and its theme/setting. In fact it's like an old movie score, getting slightly heavier as enemies approach. I am glad to say that it does not have a cartoony soundtrack as odd as that may sound to some.
Jumping and sliding are well handled. There are no particle graphic effects for fire and smoke and of course, no rag doll physics either. Neither is needed or necessary for this title.
Voice acting is done by off screen narration, no fully animated faces here. Acting is what you would expect from a game like this. It doesn't require or need long winded speeches, which would only detract from the mayhem that is to come!
I have explained the controls so won't go into details yet again, but I will say that once you have killed 10 enemies (oh on that map screen is an encyclopaedia that gives you information about the types of creatures you have met and the bosses) something called the island is unlocked. I was not anticipating this at all.
The Island is a side game if you like, with areas that can be unlocked as you progress through the normal game. Once you have beaten your enemies into submission, they are sent to the island where you can set them to work. They were your subjects once, so why not make use of them again? You can get them mining for gems, manning the islands docks or any number of tasks that I will leave you guys and girls to discover for yourselves.
You will get a chance to go to the island between levels and collect what your minions have produced for you. Be aware that they can get unhappy and dissatisfied so you may find you will have to give them some time off from time to time. This adds a new twist to the game and a welcome break from the carnage.
OK now we get down to the real heart of the matter, the Pros and the Cons and that all important final rating.
Fast and furious fun. OK so you may die a few times but there is something that drew me back to have another go, even if it was just for that satisfaction feeling of being able to say "Yes, got you!". A humorous and fun affair all in all but not without some issues as you will see in the cons section. It made me smile at times, scowl at others and often had me thinking what the ***! However the replay value is there. Once you have finished the game, you can then teleport to previous levels and play through again to reach those hidden areas that were on the map but were tantalisingly out of reach. These areas will hold more gems, more enemies as well as peril. There is also a hidden game mode to strive to unlock and the promise of DLC.
Mini games to dispatch bosses get progressively trickier to the point where frustration can set in and it seems that you are getting nowhere fast. One fight sees you having to enter a very rapid five button press combination. This almost caused me to launch the controller across the room in annoyance. There are others too that will test you unless you are extremely patient. No multiplayer or co-op.
To sum up we have a game that is fast, furious and fun but does occasionally frustrate. Although a platformer, it is not for little kids, the humour is aimed at a fairly mature audience. It delivers a fun and challenging game. It's not perfect but if you like games in a similar vein to the Baconing then this could well appeal. If there's a demo of this out there, give it a try.

The man accused of killing Schenectady High School basketball star, Eddie Stanley, was back on the stand in his murder trial, today.
32 year old James Wells testified that he split his time between Brooklyn and Schenectady to deal heroin and crack. And had easy access to illegal guns, including the one he brought to a party the night Eddie Stanley was killed.
In his second day on the stand, Wells told the jury that an argument broke out at that party on Bridge Street in Schenectady, over missing car keys. In those chaotic moments, he says the lights went out and gunfire rang out, but Wells says he wasn't the triggerman.
"He testified after the first shot he pulled the .357 gun, which was not the murder weapon. The murder weapon was a .44," says defense attorney Cheryl Coleman.
Prosecutors say wells did fire multiple shots, killing the 15 year old Schenectady High School student who was a rising basketball star. Stanley's father, known as Big Eddie, says the testimony has been hard to take.
"He's taking the stand because he's fighting for his freedom. So at the end of the day, of course he's going to take the stand," he says.
Well's says he only pulled out a gun for protection, and that another man fired the fatal shots.
"This guy came out with a gun and told people to off the porch or he was going to shoot them. At least one witness we called identified him as the shooter," says Coleman.
I don't want to keep coming here everyday and keep facing this man, knowing that this killer is still in front of my face," says Big Eddie.
After five weeks of testimony the trial continues on Monday.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--Dylan Sphavmixay's favorite part of "Diary of Wimpy Kid: Dog Days" is "When he was on the high dive and his pants was stuck on the high dive," he said. The nine year old watched the movie today with David Lieberman at Phillip's Place Cinemas in SouthPark. Moviegoers in the Charlotte area say empoyees now use security wands like these and search their bags following the movie theater massacre in Aurora, Colorado. "Certainly I'd rather them check and be able to avoid something like that here," Lieberman said. Regal Entertainment Group won't reveal specific details of their security plans. In a statement, Vice President Russ Nunley said,"On certain occasions security personnel wand guests during a sneak preview of a film not yet released." He went on to say, "Regal reserves the right to inspect South Charlotte resident Max DeLuca said, "I feel like its kind of unnecessary. After the shooting so recently, I don't know if it will happen anytime soon, but I feel like it might be invasive towards people." While some aren't happy about the changes, David and Dylan aren't fazed. They plan to continue their summer time tradition of ditching their couch for stadium seating."I think its good if it makes people feel safer, it's important," said Lieberman. Regal Entertainment Group also says movie goers should expect restrictions over character attire and accessories at their theaters. |

The ride will have a companion attraction called Cheetah Run, a habitat featuring a dozen or so cheetahs. They will have a 250-foot straightaway for running, and there will be observation windows for closer views of the animals.
The coaster's 4,000-foot-plus track will wind through other animal areas and twist around the park's Skyride, steam train and walkways.
The coaster trains will seat 16 passengers apiece. Cheetah Hunt will have a height requirement of 48 inches.

February 2, 2010
EL SEGUNDO, CA – (February 2, 2010) – The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network received a $500,000 donation from Tempur-Pedic Monday night, concluding its 2009 Tempur-Pedic Hugs Back campaign. The contribution is a result of sales of a limited version of the company's popular My Tempur-Pedic Teddy Bear® by Tempur-Pedic and participating retailers. Jason Kuhn, Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network was presented the check from Tempur-Pedic International CEO Mark Sarvary and Tempur-Pedic North America President Rick Anderson at the Las Vegas Market. During the presentation, Tempur-Pedic also announced plans for a second campaign this fall to benefit the organization. "We are grateful for the extraordinary efforts by Tempur-Pedic and their retail partners around the country to help raise the visibility of pancreatic cancer and the urgent need for research funding," stated Kuhn. "The generous contribution made by Tempur-Pedic will help us to fund innovative research into early detection methods and effective treatment options currently lacking for patients. We are grateful for their continued support of our mission to advance research, support patients and create hope for the pancreatic cancer community." Pancreatic cancer has the highest mortality rate of all major cancers with a five year survival rate of just 5 percent. According to the American Cancer Society, this year, more than 42,000 people will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in the United States, and over 35,000 will die from the disease.
About the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is the only national organization creating hope in a comprehensive way through research, patient support, community outreach and advocacy for a cure. The organization raises money for direct private funding of research—and advocates for more aggressive federal research funding of medical breakthroughs in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer.
The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network fills the void of information and options by giving patients and caregivers reliable, personalized information they need to make informed decisions. We create a sense of hope and community so no one has to face pancreatic cancer alone. The organization helps support individuals and communities all across the country work together to raise awareness and funds to find a cure for pancreatic cancer.

We have been in the hospitality and tourist industry for almost 30 years, having owned and operated two motels in the tourist area and wine country of San Luis Obispo, California since 1983, which has provided us the background to offer our guests one of the finest lodging experiences on Maui. Our family began vacationing in the Kaanapali area over 20 years ago and loved it so much that we became owners at the Mahana in 2000. Hawaii Tax IDW01697472-03
What attracted us to this particular area was the upscale resort and its peaceful setting, beautiful uncrowded beaches allowing long walks, water sports, and incredible views of the Pacific and the islands of Lanai and Molokai. Our family was also attracted to its proximity to many restaurants and shops, many within walking distance. Our children especially loved the beach and the many activities of the resort including the pool and jacuzzi. We were particularly attracted to this unit since it was one of the few one bedroom condos we found on the island with both the living room and bedroom being oceanfront with floor to ceiling windows providing the best of oceanfront views. It was also larger than average which was great for our entire family.
Our direct oceanfront, beachfront views are truly stunning from the 11th floor. Many of our guests describe the view as like 'being on a cruise ship' whether you are on the balcony or in the living room or master bedroom looking through the floor to ceiling windows. Being on a corner, the 270 degree panoramic views of the Pacific with Lanai to the south and Molokai to the north as well as whale watching and beautiful sunsets are unforgettable. Even the guest bedroom has wonderful views from its floor to ceiling windows of the verdant dormant volcanos of Maui. The resort amenities are for all ages, including the tennis courts, swimming pool, jacuzzi, and saunas. Kaanapali Beach is uncrowded and offers great water sports including snorkeling, swimming and even surfing. Sunning and strolling along the beach are popular along the beach or even along the new boardwalk that extends down towards Black Rock. The location of the resort is within walking distance to many restaurants and shopping, and is a short drive away to many more as well as world class snorkeling and golfing. The Mahana Resort is known for its superior quality of travel experience on Maui, being #4 on Tripadvisor website. Our guests enjoy the beautiful tropical interior and excellent maintenance of our condo as seen in our online guestbook.

Lake Operational Data
How the Osage Energy Center Works
Bagnell Dam holds back water from the Osage River to create the Lake of the Ozarks. This stored water serves as "fuel" for the Osage Energy Center, located inside the dam.
When the plant is operating, water flows from the lake through a large pipe called a penstock, which carries the water to large water wheels called turbines. Each turbine is connected to a generator by a 30-inch diameter steel shaft. A generator is a device in which a type of magnet spins inside a stationary coil of wire. As the pressure of water flowing through the plant turns the turbine, the turbine turns the magnet inside the generator, producing electricity.
When excess water flows into the Lake of the Ozarks, such as during times of very heavy rainfall, the floodgates are used to pass this excess water downstream.

It really depend on the brush - specifically, the stiffness of the hair and the density of the hair. Softer and denser brushes are not that much rougher than old t-shirts/rags. For maintenance polishing on a mirror shine shoes/boots.
But to create the mirror/spit shine for the first time, nothing replaces an old t-shirts/rag.
Try use Navy cream; it brings out better color and won't look as dull as black cream antiquing effects. Just IME.

Spicing up your meals with different extracts can not only taste good, but can also be good for your health. NY1's Jill Urban filed the following report.
During the holidays we all tend to overindulge. But being naughty can also be nice thanks to the help of some simple extracts.
"These days there are tons of extracts on the supermarket shelves – they are great for cooking obviously, but what most people don't know is they might have some health benefits. You are only using a tiny bit so you might only get a small benefit, but why not? It's the holidays, every little bit helps," explains Lauren Purcell, editor-in-chief of Every Day with Rachel Ray Magazine.
Purcell recently showed NY1 a few extracts that carry some kick. Vanilla is a common one that we all know. But you may not know that it is packed with antioxidants so use it freely. Same with cinnamon extract.
A lesser-known extract that can calm stressed nerves is lavender.
"Lavender is a soother. It's been known for anxiety relief. Now it's in an extract form that you can find," notes Purcell. "It's great in whipped cream. Lavender pairs well with almost anything sweet. You might also just put it in your pancakes. You won't taste flowers but you'll be very calm."
If all the holiday eating is a little hard on your stomach two extracts that can help with that are peppermint and ginger. Both are known to have stomach soothing properties so including them in some of your recipes can help offset some of that over-eating.
Clove extract can also ease discomfort. It was actually used years ago to relieve dental pain before anesthesia. Some say it has many health benefits. It's also great to use in stews and beef recipes because of its nice deep flavor.
And lastly, there's coffee extract.
"There hasn't been any research done on coffee extract but there is tons of research about coffee itself," says Purcell. "It's good to prevent cardiovascular disease. We all know the caffeine effects are useful when you are racing for the holidays. So, in extract form, I like to use it in sweets but it's also really great in marinades for beef."
So the extract aisle of your supermarket is not so vanilla anymore. Exploring some of these new flavors can be the perfect way to spice up your holiday and your health.

No worries. I know my profession is not held in high regard. I am just glad I represent companies not individuals.
Then again, companies are people.
I owe you an apology. I thought you were pulling my leg yesterday about the Pats fans. Obviously, you were not. I saw for myself how some were celebrating outside the court today after the bail hearing. Incredible. Most of the crowd cheering and yelling "innocent." If I did not see it for myself, I wouldn't believe it.
Again, an investigation into that criminal rogue enterprise in Foxboro is more than warranted at this point.

Double Dipping
OK...I have to add some more recipes, but in the meanwhile.
From the New York Times:
The Curious Cook - Dip Once or Dip Twice?
By HAROLD McGEE
Published: January 30, 2008
A scientific report, inspired by an episode of ﻗSeinfeld,ﻗ? may cause football fans to take a second look at that communal bowl of dip.
I just hit that episode the other day...I can never dip anything into salsa without thinking of that show.

The Invisible Ingredient in Every Kitchen
From the New York Times:
The Curious Cook - The Invisible Ingredient in Every Kitchen
By HAROLD McGEE
Published: January 2, 2008
Every cook relies every day on the power of heat to transform food ﻗ but most donﻗt understand it.
OF all the ingredients in the kitchen, the most common is also the most mysterious.
Itﻗs hard to measure and hard to control. Itﻗs not a material like water or flour, to be added by the cup. In fact, itﻗs invisible.
Itﻗs heat.
This is always the biggest challange for me as a cook! Thought I would share this great article from the Times.

That's the point. From the beginning we had, for lack of a better description, two countries under one government. Much like the problems with today's policy, the argument of State's rights/rule vs. a central government have gone on from the beginning of this country and before. The industrialized north had the desire and interest in business in the south. The south however had little interest in the business up north. They operated more on the "Good Old Boy" style of business and therefore excluded many people/businesses they didn't know. Case in point, William Driver (person of Old Glory fame) was a partner in his brothers (Stephen) shoe business. They decided there was a business opportunity in Nashville so Stephen left and opened up a shop down there. Business was very bad so William followed and worked as a silent partner. The business ultimately failed and William spent the rest of his life living off savings and died there in Nashville. This example is just one of many examples of the problems between the two business communities. As the friction between the two regions increased and the south increasing turned to Europe to sell its goods, their politics and beliefs on politics split even more. Enter Lincoln and his close companions. One a banker from Chicago, one a real estate man and the other who delt in business investments. One wanted an opportunity to deal in land transactions in the South, another wanted more opportunities for his bank and the third wanted, along with other reasons, to free the slaves. The problem was that he just wanted them free so they could be sent back to Africa. Doubt this theory? Look at history. Carpet baggers and bankers over ran the south after the war. Now Sherman and his activities had an alternate mission; destroy as many of the southern land ownership records as possible. Yes he was a master at what he did but did you ever wonder why so many towns and homes were destroyed? War may be hell but what Sherman did was not acceptable. If Lee had sponsored that kind of action in the north we would have a whole different view of their actions. |

Canon IXUS 300 HS review
The IXUS 300 HS is pricey for a compact camera, but it's a pocket-sized powerhouse. Its pictures are great, even at high ISOs, and its super-slow-motion movie mode is a real hoot. Its high-speed shooting modes are also decent. Overall, it's a very good camera Read more

Ricoh CX3 review
The 10-megapixel CX3 is no ordinary compact superzoom -- it's packed with features aimed at true photo enthusiasts, rather than casual snapshooters. Its picture quality is limited by its small sensor, but its 10.7x zoom range is great, its LCD display is excellent and its 10mm macro mode is fantastic Read more

afew minor bumps on first day of releasse but due to all the store front changes and the quickness it was addressed I still give this set 5 stars due to art work, the fast response to correct the file and how fast the tile set was included into the TLX Planner.
the art is awesome giving a great "Blade Runner" feel if you so choose.
I have started doing some build outs and am working on a city scape of 3X3 with the inclusion of Titan and Titan control the build out is coming together nicely.
I am a fan of Paul's work especially the Titan series. thank you Paul S.

Researchers think they've figured out why women stay with abusive men.Ever wonder why women who have been abused by their man stay in the relationship? Researchers think they've figured out why.
By Dara Adeeyo
According to a Purdue University study, girls who date an abusive guy are happier than they expected when the relationship ends. This is an obvious duh, but the study noticed that the women in the study projected their happiness to be low if the relationship ended, suggesting that this is why (aside from the mental abuse) many women stay in abusive relationships.
Related: This Time, Rihanna Is in Control
So if you're dating someone that has either shoved, controlled, sworn at, or humiliated you, you need to end your relationship. There's no doubt breakups suck. It'll be sad and hard to emotionally detach from someone who has pretty much brainwashed you, but staying in an unhealthy relationship will cause you more long-term problems. And maybe this study is a sign: You'll be happier than you think to put him behind you.
You need to remember that it's important to respect yourself enough to walk away from something that no longer serves you, grows you, or makes you happy. That applies to everything in life, especially relationships.
Think you or a friend might be in an unhealthy relationship? Check this to see if you've got the signs of an abusive relationship.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The Buffalo Bills and American Red Cross teamed up Tuesday to host the annual blood drive at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
Hundreds of donors gave blood at the event, which featured giveaways, refreshments and appearances by Bills players.
The team also raffled off 300 pairs of tickets to donors in attendance.
Red Cross officials say blood donations are always welcome during the holiday season.
"Donating blood makes a huge difference. There is no substitute for human blood and when you donate you can save up to three lives, so I mean how can you not say that's an important thing," said Mary Grupka, American Red Cross Blood Services District Director.
The Red Cross says it always seeks donations. Someone in the United States needs blood about every two seconds.

HAVERHILL — City Council gave preliminary approval last night to a local development team's plan to bring an upscale hotel to land near Northern Essex Community College in the eastern part of the city.
The worldwide Lexington by Vantage company plans to open the 60-unit hotel next fall on Amesbury Road (Route 110) off Interstate 495's exit 52. The 3.6 acre site is just east of the highway interchange on Route 110, behind a Mobil gas station and Dunkin Donuts.
Michael Migliori, a local attorney for the project, said the plan is to begin construction on the $4.5 million hotel this summer. Local developers King Weinstein and Stephen Stapinski are the developers.
Migliori said 60 rooms are planned at first, but that another 60 rooms and a restaurant might be added in the future. The three-story building will include 12 full-time workers and many more part-time positions, he said. The project is expected to generate about $800,000 in fees in property tax for the city over the next decade, Migliori said.
City officials said a key part of the project for them is that the developers will pay for Haverhill to bring the city sewer line about a half-mile up Route 110 to the hotel and areas near it. Sewer service is something residents and businesses in that part of the city have wanted for a long time.
"Current businesses in that part of the city have had sewer problems and this will help them," said Stapinski, who is the project engineer.
No one spoke against the proposal at a public hearing last night that preceded the council approving two special permits. Several more local and state approvals are needed before the project can forward, however. The city's Conservation Commission and the state Department of Transportation must sign off, for instance.
The property is owned by PAM Realty Trust and includes room for 78 parking spaces, according to plans on file at City Hall. Weinstein and Stapinski are developing the project under the name Miami Stuart Realty LLC.
The hotel would be the third in Haverhill, joining the 126-room Hampton Inn on Bank Road and the 110-room Best Western on Lowell Avenue.
"This is the first Haverhill hotel in 25 years," Migliori said.
Councilor Michael Hart said the project speaks well of Haverhill's future.
"It's a positive sign to have this project at this time, coming out of a recession," Hart said. "And it's an ideal spot."
Councilor Thomas Sullivan said he lives near the hotel site and that people he has talked in that part of the city are excited about the proposal.
"I really believe in this project," Councilor Mary Ellen Daly O'Brien said. "I think it's really going to change that area of the city."
Lexington by Vantage operates upscale inns and hotels in key cities around the world and is part of Vantage Hospitality Group, the eighth largest hotel company in the world, according to the company's website. The company has three hotels in New York, but this would be its first in New England.

Bridge Communities provides a holistic program of services that provide the necessary elements to create permanent change in the lives of homeless families in DuPage County.
The strength of the Bridge Communities Program is in the positive relationship that develops between the client families and their volunteer mentors.
Serving DuPage County - one page service and program overview - 2011
Please call (630) 545-0610 ext. 20 or email email@example.com
Before a homeless family is accepted into the Bridge Transitional Housing Program, the following steps must be taken:
The following are some key elements of the Bridge Communities' Transitional Housing Program:
Housing: Client families reside in Bridge Communities owned apartment buildings that are spread throughout DuPage County. They are located in the communities of: Glen Ellyn, Addison, Carol Stream, Glendale Heights, Naperville, Westmont and Woodridge. The apartments are primarily two bedroom units, although there are a few three bedroom units in inventory. Families are in the Transitional Housing Program for an average of two years.
Mentoring: Volunteer mentors from Program Partners sponsor and assist the client families as they work to develop the life-skills necessary for self-sufficiency. Mentors help families with: budget development and savings plan, debt reduction, financial literacy, self-esteem, emotional support, parental skills and healthy decision making.
Case Management: Bridge Communities' professional case managers are available to assist mentors and client families in accessing resources that are important for families to achieve their individual goals. Case managers lead client families and volunteer mentors through the development of short-term and long-term Program goals that the case managers closely monitor.
Employment Counseling: Bridge Communities' employment director assists client families in securing and maintaining employment that will sustain their economic self sufficiency upon graduation from the Transitional Housing Program. Job readiness training, resume writing, and mock interviewing are some of the counseling services offered. The employment director also helps clients families gain acceptance into local universities, colleges and training centers. Once meaningful employment is secured, client families and the employment director focus on job retention and further employment training to continue to increase income.
Tutoring: Since homelessness disrupts the continuity of school attendance, Bridge Communities provides professional certified teachers to tutor all school age children to help them achieve academic success. Tutors are hired to work with children one to two times per week throughout the school year. Bridge Communities is especially interested in helping homeless children succeed so as to break the generational cycle of poverty. Academic scholarships are available to college-bound students who maintain above average grade point averages and attend accredited colleges or universities.
Counseling Resources: At times, client families need additional resources to help cope with life stressors or ongoing emotional issues. To help, Bridge partners with community-based psychological services for short or long term counseling. These services are available for both parents and children.
Car Donations: Homeless families often come into our Transitional Housing Program in need of reliable transportation to help them get to their jobs and take their children to child care or school. Bridge Communities solicits auto donations from persons in our communities; all cars are checked for safety before being given to client families.

We are located just a short walk from the lake and just 10-15 minutes from the township. The lodge is well situated on the crest of a hill making the maximum of a sunny position on a fabulous 2 acres site in Wanaka. The alpine environment is such a picture postcard with sweeping picture windows throughout the Lodge to capture the panoramic view of the lofty Harris Mountain Range and World Heritage listed Mount Aspiring National Park.Our town apartments provide close proximity to town and only a few minutes walk to the lakefront.When your hosts Liz and Neil Webster took on the Lodge and Apartments that they have aptly refer to as Wanaka's Hidden Gem they instantly saw the huge appeal and its latent potential. They have both travelled extensively to most corners of the world so know first-hand what makes an ideal traveller or holiday maker retreat. This is such a perfect destination for those looking for a quiet retreat, a special event or a wedding with the added bonus of a real sense of privacy. They can accommodate groups of up to 14 people in a mix of either self-catering accommodation or full Bed and Breakfast service.
