Judged: 1 1 1 Easy. Ayn Rand believed in PERSONAL EXCEPTIONALISM. She was the first advocate for Enteprenuership. Rand's vision is the exact opposite of the pitiful, hopeless losers who think pathetic collectist Big Brother sloth and medocraty plenty good enough for their families. Unlike, Obama's Orwellian elitests, Rand believed people should be allowed to thrive and prosper, and succeed. Obama types only think of citizens as tax slaves to be marginalized and dominated like zombies in some bad "B" movie. |
Judged: 1 1 1 Be VERY afraid! |
Since: Aug 11 33 |
Judged: 1 1 1 I know Dems that love Ayn Rand. Start seeing the world and the people who have diverse experiences and opinions instead of trying to fit EVERYTHING into a LEFT VS RIGHT paradigm which you have been brainwashed into. |
Judged: 1 1 1 Paul Ryan only recently started to distance himself from his true love, Ayn Rand. And, he was shoved and pushed into changing his "Public" views on Ayn Rand by the Catholic Bishops, who confronted Paul Ryan and threatened to denounce him to the entire U.S. Catholic Congregation in April of this year, IF he did not stop "Publicly" praising Ayn Rand. Search; Catholic Bishops Condemn Paul Ryan Over Ayn Rand Search; Catholic Bishops Condemn Paul Ryan's Budget |
Judged: 1 1 1 Ayn Rand was a "nice one," she engaged in Adultery any time she was inclined to do so. Those Adulteries were public knowledge, and her husband Frank O'Conner knew all about the affairs and tolerated them without complaint. Search; What Have the Tea Party and the Church of Satan Got in Common? answer: Ayn Rand is THE Philosopher for both groups. Search; Ayn Rand - Anton Lavey Search; Ayn Rand - Tea Party Anton Lavey, the Founder of the Church of Satan, and Author of the "Satanic Bible" said, "Satanism is Just Ayn Rand's Philosophy with ceremony and rituals added."

Judged: 1 1 1 Your postulations are an exact match for those of the John Birch Society. The John Birch Society Members have joined the Republican Tea Party in droves. Search; Tea Party Funding Koch Brothers Emerge From Anonymity-Peter, usnews The Billionaire Koch Brothers' father, Fred Koch was a Founding Member of the John Birch Society.

State denies early-start request
Henrico County's request to the State Board of Education for the right to open school before Labor Day was rejected late last month, in a decision that was anticipated by – but still disappointing to – county officials. The board voted to follow the recommendation of Superintendent of Public Instruction Patricia Wright, who concluded that Henrico did not make a compelling enough argument that it deserved the right under state code. To earn a waiver allowing it to open school before Labor Day, a Virginia school system must show "good cause" - typically a weather-related need or implementation of year-round school, for example. Henrico had argued that its waiver would create an innovate academic environment and allow the system to align with the schedule of J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College to provide more dual-credit opportunities for students. Henrico Superintendent Pat Russo said he believed that while a number of members of the state board wanted to vote in favor of Henrico's request, "they felt their hands were tied" by the code's language. "I don't want you to feel that your efforts were wasted," School Board Chairwoman Diana Winston told the school officials who had helped research and craft the request. "We'll find [another way]." That other way could come from the General Assembly, if it votes to grant the right to open early either to Henrico or to all remaining state school divisions that lack such a right. A Senate committee earlier this year killed a proposal supported by Gov. Bob McDonnell that sought to revoke the so-called "Kings Dominion law" and grant the right to localities. In Virginia – a Dillon Rule state – localities lack the power to take any actions that are not specifically granted to them by the state legislature. Seventy-seven school districts in the state have been granted the right to open before Labor Day, but 55 localities do not have that right. Henrico was the first to have its waiver request denied. |

DAC chapter donates $1.3M in coupons
The Pocahontas Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Colonists, based in western Henrico, last year donated more than $1.3 million worth of manufacturers coupons to U.S. military personnel overseas. Throughout 2013, members and friends of the chapter clipped 952,349 manufacturers' coupons valued at $1,350,630, which Program Chairman Carole Featherston shipped to U.S. military bases abroad. Military personnel can use the coupons when shopping in base stores.
The National Society Daughters of American Colonists is a women's genealogical and patriotic society whose members are descended from a man or woman who rendered civil or military service in any of the American colonies prior to July 4, 1776. > Read more.

Khumba-ya? Not quite
But animated South African film has its moments
You might have seen something called Khumba while clicking through a Redbox recently (or perhaps it was nestled in some hidden corner of a DVD sale shelf). And chances are, you passed it by without much of a thought. Makes sense; that goggle-eyed cartoon zebra on the cover (a zebra that's dangerously close to becoming Madagascar copyright infringement) doesn't inspire much confidence.
But when Khumba starts up, it looks nothing like you'd expect. The camera gazes across the savannah and the soundtrack swells with triumphant South African vocals. > Read more.

Abstract emotion
Abstract paintings of Inge Strack (pictured) are on display through March 9 at the Gumenick Family Gallery at The Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen. Strack, a Chestefield painter of German origin, often paints in bold colors with a deep sense of emotion, focusing on brushstrokes, texture and form to find a balance. Strack's painting is routed in the European tradition of expressionism but has found its own, unique language in following the American dream.
"I am not attempting to abstract the physical world," she said. "I draw my subject matter from inside of myself hoping to create a constant conversation between the viewer and the painting, especially since abstracts do not seem to answer but ask." > Read more.

Is anybody having symptoms yet? With my first, I had morning sickness. I had to keep saltines in the car with me at all times. With my 2nd, I hardly had any symptoms. It was hard to believe I was even pregnant until about the 2nd trimester lol.
Mom to 2 busy boys and one spoiled lil' girl
Re: Symptoms?
Yes, I am almost to my 6th week and I am experiencing a lot of cramping. Other side affects include nausea, frequent urniation, and a slight temperature increase. According to my husband the moodiness has all ready begun . It is going to be a fun 9 months Congrats to you other moms to be!
Re: Symptoms?
I am almost 6 weeks and so far no horrible symptoms, just annoying ones.....frequent urination, insomnia!, bizarre dreams (last night had a dream thay my boyfriend was pregnant and we were excited because he was going to have a c-section so we would have matching scars, lol), PMS-like cramps off and on, pimples and sore breasts. With my first, over 14 years ago, I do recall a little bit of morning sickness off an on for the 1st trimester but it may have been later than this. I have had a little bit of nausea but nothing bad so far, knock on wood - I'm sure it's just a matter of time.
Mom to a 14 year old boy and pregnant with #2 @ age 41!
Re: Symptoms?
Congrats!! I am worried too. I just experienced some light spotting so called my doc. She told me at 5-6 weeks this could be implantation spotting. I told her that I thought implantation spotting was right around the time of your period but she said no. At 5-6 week the sac is forming and lots of things going on. I sure hope that's all it is. I'm saying lots of prayers.

I am not doubting the nutritional benefits of this dish. I served it over a bed of brown rice. I feel healthier already. However, my tastebuds were not dancing. On the other hand, my husband really enjoyed it. He loves anything involving tamarind. And my mother, who really likes collard greens, absolutely loved it.

Lollapalooza phone apps integrate with Facebook
Every major rock festival now features an iPhone app to help you navigate the grounds and find out when your favorite bands are playing, but Lollapalooza, which happens this weekend in Chicago, has a couple of unique wrinkles.
The Coachella iPhone app that I used earlier this year had a friend finder and the ability to post photos, but AT&T's network had trouble sending regular SMS messages, so I didn't even bother trying to use these data-intensive features. To try to get around this problem, the Lolla organizers have teamed up with AOL Lifestream to provide … Read more

BRISTOL, Tenn. -- In four days, Tennessee will host an important SEC football game against 11th-ranked and once-beaten South Carolina.
On Monday, however, most of the focus shifted two hours northeast of Knoxville to a football game that's three years away.
Next to an asphalt infield lined like a football field, Bristol Motor Speedway executives and the athletic directors and football coaches from Tennessee and Virginia Tech officially announced something that's been an idea for nearly two decades.
The Volunteers and Hokies will play at the popular NASCAR track located halfway between the two campuses on Sept. 10, 2016, in what's being called the "Battle at Bristol."
"We knew that this had been talked about for a long, long time, but we really wanted to make it happen," UT athletic director Dave Hart said. "We were going to do all we could to bring it to fruition within reason. Any time you're in negotiations of this magnitude, it does take a long time to get it finalized, because we just finalized all this within the last 10 days.
"There were consistent and intense efforts to get it done."
Some of the speedway's executives, led by general manager Jerry Caldwell, visited Knoxville in late February or early March, Hart recalled, and pitched a plan to hold the game on the infield of the half-mile track, which is estimating a capacity of 150,000 for its first football game.
"The individuals at Bristol were very serious about it, and they had a great plan," first-year Vols coach Butch Jones said. "They came to Knoxville, we met with them and we liked what they had. We had some areas that needed to be addressed, and they were able to be addressed. There's a lot of effort, a lot of thought, that's gone into this.
"We made it a reality."
Jones had questions regarding the field and its conditions, locker rooms and housing for his team and its staff and fan accommodations. There's a large tower standing right where the midfield logo would be. The game is scheduled for two weeks after the annual August night race, so it'll be a quick flip for Bristol's staff.
The game, already dubbed "college football's biggest ever," has a title and logos, and including the fireworks, confetti guns, video messages from the governors of the two states and special-edition NASCAR cars, there was no lack of fanfare for Monday's official announcement.
Asked about his expected attendance for the future game, Jones replied, "We expect to break the world's record. It's going to be the biggest ever."
Added Hart: "You want to be a part of this. You want to say, 'I was there. I was there when that all-time record was set.'"
Michigan Stadium set the single-game attendance record (115,109) last month when the Wolverines hosted Notre Dame.
Hart said both schools will get a "significant guarantee" -- in the $4 million range, according to one source -- in addition to incentive-based bonuses.
"I think the exposure is priceless, because people talk about them all summer long," said UT's third-year AD. "I think from a coaching perspective, it gets the players focused. I'm a big fan of neutral-site games, and we've talked to other cities as well.
"There won't be a venue as spectacular as this."
Hart said he's been in discussion with six other cities -- all of them likely not far from a fertile recruiting base -- about playing a neutral-site game, though he declined to name specifics.
He's also been in continuous contact with the athletic directors at the schools with which the Vols had prior scheduling obligations. The home-and-home series with Nebraska, set in 2006 and scheduled for 2016 and 2017, has been pushed back a decade. The Cornhuskers replaced the UT series with games against Oregon.
The biggest question in regard to future non-conference scheduling is the SEC and its possible move to nine league games.
"We've got to see what we're doing in our own league," Hart said. "We've got to see where we're going in the SEC relative to whether we are going to play nine games, is the most important component of that. I've been in conversation with people we have on the schedule.

"We're going to play Oklahoma [in Norman next season and in Knoxville in 2015]. We're going to play that two-game series, but beyond that I've been in conversation with my counterparts at those institutions, just explaining our position and that we want to have some flexibility based on what we do."
Asked directly by the Times Free Press if he thought the SEC would move to a nine-game schedule by 2016, Hart said, "You know where I am on that, but I'm one person. I'm a very, very strong proponent of nine games, and I think it's important for all of us that we know what we look like from '16 on. That's why we've left flexibility.
"Until I get to the next meeting," he added, "I don't know exactly where everybody else will be on that."
Jones hopes to have the struggling football program firmly back on track by the time he coaches a game at a speedway.
"I think it adds to the momentum," he said. "I think already people see around the country we have a lot of work to do, but they can see the progress that we're making in all areas, with our current players, recruiting, anything and everything. It's an illustration of where we're going at Tennessee."

New freshmen get a taste of sustainable agriculture on tour of UMD farm
Red peppers, string beans and cherry tomatoes were hot items Friday during a University of Minnesota Duluth freshmen welcome week event.By: Jana Hollingsworth, Duluth News Tribune
Red peppers, string beans and cherry tomatoes were hot items Friday during a University of Minnesota Duluth freshmen welcome week event.
About 40 students traipsed through rows of veggie beds at the 10-acre organic transition farm and five-acre apple orchard that make up UMD's Sustainable Agriculture Project Farm at the Research and Field Studies Center. They were there to learn about sustainability, but there was a lot of eating to do.
"I love vegetables," said freshman Rachel Strom, who was happy to see the tour offered. "I've been gardening every summer with my dad my whole life. It's second nature to me."
The agriculture project is part of "the explosion in local foods infrastructure development," said Randel Hanson, who teaches courses on sustainability and the environment at UMD.
The UMD farm off Jean Duluth Road opened in 1912 when the school was involved in a push to produce more food locally. It remained so until the farm was closed in 1976 as the country shifted to a more globalized industrial food system.
"It's clear now, that was probably a pretty dumb idea," Hanson said.
The field and farm reopened in 2009 as the Sustainable Agriculture Project, which is student-driven.
"We're trying to figure out how to become more sustainable and eat healthier and use minimally processed food," Hanson said. "The university is back involved in that process in how to rebuild a regional food system."
Part of that means growing food for UMD dining services. Coming out of gardens right now and going into dishes at school are slicing and cherry tomatoes, string beans, tomatillos, peas, cucumbers, zucchini, squash, lettuce, watermelon, kale, cabbage, green peppers, basil and dill.
Relying more on local and less on industrial is good for farmers, the economy, health and the land, Hanson said.
"Every region needs to figure out how to do this," he said.
The farm has lots of collaborations. The Northeast Minnesota Beekeepers Association has six honey bee hives at the farm; there is the Three Sisters Garden, which is an American Indian garden; bat and bird houses; an ethnobotany garden for indigenous dye and medicinal plants; and a garden for Duluth public schools. There's a 50-tree community orchard and a corn field. This year, between 15,000 and 20,000 pounds of produce will be sold to UMD dining services, At Sara's Table/Chester Creek Cafe, the Duluth Grill, Super One Foods, Mount Royal Fine Foods, the Whole Foods Co-op and the Duluth Farmers Market.
UMD senior Ryan Ritter works at the farm as part of UMD's sustainable development research opportunity program. He likes bringing food closer to home, he said.
"We'll get an order from dining services at 8 in the morning and we'll have it there at 12," he said. "It's just wild."
The farm's offerings grow every year, he said, and he hopes demand grows with it.
Freshman Quinn Franti is a big fruit eater, and said teenagers have a bad reputation for eating junk. He's excited that UMD's cafeteria is buying more food from the farm; something he didn't learn until Friday.
"This was very eye-opening," he said.

I was on my way home when my wife called me and asked me to forgive her. She said she had done a "very dumb thing."
She was talking like I did when I had to explain why I accidentally set the microwave on 10 minutes instead of one minute and didn't notice the smoky mistake until it was too late. The smell of a single, very burned, tortured and warped hot dog seemed to scent everything we owned, including our clothes, for more than a week.
The only "very dumb" thing my wife has ever done was marry me. She was so contrite. What could she have done to cause her to feel such remorse?
She confessed that she had invited in a door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman that afternoon for a "short visit" and when he failed to close the sale after more than 90 minutes, she had agreed that he could return that night to make his pitch to me.
She had tried to explain to him that we would not be able to purchase his vacuum that cost as much and looked like it weighed a little more than a small Volkswagen. She said I would not be interested in buying one because she and I share all the money that is left over after we pay the bills and have had heated discussions over whether or not to spend all that money on a single bag of microwave popcorn or half of a Little Caesars pizza.
I was not upset at her at all because we have sort of a family standard that says we, unlike many others, try to treat even door-to-door sales people with respect. And yet Barb was concerned I would not be nice to this very persistent salesman and asked me repeatedly to be polite.
When I got home, I saw in the middle of our living room this vacuum cleaner that looked like a tank. What was more surprising was that this salesman had placed about our dining room little displays of our filth on small black felt presentation squares like one might use to showcase rare diamonds.
We learned that each square probably included a heaping helping of germs that could threaten the life of any small child who might touch our carpet and, I assume, any Harley biker friends we might have invited over to sit on the floor.
This proved to be a theme for the evening. Our guest wanted us to know that our house and mattress were loaded with so much dirt, filth and invisible dead bugs that we had only two options: one was to buy an expensive vacuum cleaner that has big suction power and the other was to have our house collapse into a wallet-sized dwelling and disappear into a malfunctioning television set like they did at the end of the movie "Poltergeist."
While he kept returning to his theme of filth and disease, I held fast to my contention that unless he planned to sell us his bomb-proof vacuum for less than $100, he would have no deal. At one point, he tried to meet my expectations by writing a lower number on a scrap of paper and sliding the new price toward me like I was drug dealer. He did get the price down to less than $100 — a month.
When we finally reached an impasse, he told us before he could leave he would need to call his boss and let him see all of our dirty sins displayed about our house so that he could know for himself that his salesman had "done his job." I told him if that was an excuse to bring in another person to hard sell us I would be "very angry" — and I was not kidding. I think he was worried that I might throw all our germs all over him, so he suddenly decided that he didn't need his boss to stop by after all.
That's when he began a lengthy process of taking apart the vacuum cleaner, one piece at a time, cleaning it, polishing it and wiping it down as if it was now radioactive. As he would carefully prepare each part for his cardboard box, he took this sad parental tone and asked us pointed questions like, "If your washing machine broke down, how long would you take to replace it?" and "If your daughter fell in a vat of boiling oil, would you save up money before you tried to pull her out?"

Our conclusion that the allegations do not amount to being "in connection with" transactions in covered securities is bolstered by the distinction between the present cases and the Madoff feeder fund cases. Therefore, we find that the fraudulent schemes ... are not more than tangentially related to the purchase or sale of covered securities and are therefore not sufficiently connected to such purchases or sales to trigger SLUSA preclusion.
Stanford's trial began in January after a judge ruled in December that he was mentally competent [JURIST report] to stand trial. His lawyers were unsuccessful in arguing that he suffered from retrograde amnesia and diminished mental capacity as a result of head injuries sustained during a 2009 assault while in prison. Last year Stanford filed a lawsuit [JURIST report] accusing federal agents of violating his constitutional rights. The suit named 12 defendants, including members of the FBI, the SEC and the Department of Justice. Stanford alleged that the defendants used "abusive law-enforcement methods" to pursue a frivolous civil suit [JURIST report] against him in order to gather evidence for his criminal prosecution. In June 2009 Stanford pleaded not guilty [JURIST report] to 21 charges of fraud, conspiracy and obstruction.

Says that new evidence coming out will show a link between the BOT, Freeh, and The NCAA.
He actually said that new evidence will come out that reveals "something rotten in Denmark" between the BOT, Freeh, and the NCAA.
I had to look up what 'rotten in Denmark" meant, hahahahaha.
Are there any rumors circulating what this could be? Is it maybe what Zeig was talking about as well?

If you could prove that somehow there was collusion between the three groups (to pin this on Paterno/Football), the sanctions would almost certainly be dropped. Mark Emmert would also lose his job immediately. There is no way the NCAA could withstand this.
I am skeptical of anything that comes from Blehar and/or Ziegler, however. These guys always point to reason and circumstance and that isn't going to clear Penn States name in this mess. Need hard factual evidence.

I'm not a believer in these conspiracy theories....and that is all they are at this point. All I want is evidence that shows that Curley/Shultz/Spanier did in fact take the proper steps IF they had knowledge and the ball was dropped beyond them. OR That MM reported nothing substantial, Victim 2 was contacted, and Joe really knew nothing. At this point that's what I hope for...otherwise we look like a pack of desperate conspiracy theorists trying to place blame elsewhere. Even if the thoery is proven correct, it doesnt change the fact that our administrators didnt take the issue seriously when they had a chance...and thats all that matters here..not what happened after

Australian Bureau of Statistics reveals that many overseas students were enrolled in Australian Tertiary education in 2004, indicating 8.6% increase in overseas students from 2003. While higher education institutions, typically universities, are increasingly reliant on fee paying students, academics are struggling to meet the educational needs of an increasingly diverse student group. Many students' educational experience involved teaching and learning method and assessment expectations considerably different to that expected at Australian universities, especially at the post-graduate level. This, in turn, requires a different approach to teaching and learning to assist them to be able to succeed in what is a new and foreign educational environment. This study reports the use of an online Community of Practice (CoP) and group assessment to both support Asian students' transition from one educational system to another as well as continuing to meet the needs of western educated students. Results to date are very encouraging. Keywords: Assessment, Cultural Diversity, Communities of Practice, Learning Groups, Plagiarism, Academic misconduct

State and county authorities are investigating the death of a Novato man who plunged from the fourth floor of Marin General Hospital.
James Mikulski, 28, of Novato was found on the pavement about 55 feet below the area where he was staying as a patient, said sheriff's Lt. Keith Boyd, the assistant county coroner. Mikulski was pronounced dead a short time later in the emergency room.
Mikulski was discovered at about 11:20 p.m. Oct. 2. No one saw him fall or jump, but Boyd said it appears he broke a latch to a window to gain access to a narrow landing nearby.
Investigators are checking to see if any medical monitors contain data showing that Mikulski disconnected himself, which could provide a time frame for when he climbed out the window.
Mikulski had been admitted to the hospital the prior afternoon, when he apparently jumped off a 150-foot hillside off Highway 37 near the Petaluma River Bridge, according to sheriff's logs. He struck his head on the pavement, said Novato fire Battalion Chief Jeff Veliquette.
Mikulski was taken to Marin General Hospital for treatment and also placed on a psychiatric hold.
The hospital staff later removed him from the psychiatric unit, Boyd said.
Jon Friedenberg, Marin General's chief fund and business development officer, said the hospital is prevented from commenting on the incident because of state laws on patient privacy.
Corey Egel, a spokesman for the California Department of Public Health, said his department is investigating and "cannot comment until the investigation is completed."
The state's health department fined the hospital $175,000 this year for medical errors that contributed to the deaths of two patients in 2011.
Mikulski was a six-year employee at EQIS, a San Rafael-based financial services company, according to an online profile. His profile says he earned a bachelor's degree in 2007 from DePaul University.

Get whatever kayak you feel most comfortable in with a beer can in between the legs. Nothing more relaxing than being out on the water and seeing nobody around for a ways. Put the empties back in the kayak though, I always pick up ditched ones in the river from knuckleheads. My wife and I have kayaks and have used them a lot in Polk and Story county. Rivers are probably still going to be shallow next year unless we get a TON of moisture so you'll have to stick to small lakes like Ada Hayden, Little Wall, etc.
Originally Posted by Wallacelantz There is an expo in february that you may want to check out in Indianola. Canoesport Outfitters Don't actually own one, but kicked around the idea. ^^^^ Along those lines, a local(ish) place had a paddle day close, tried out several. Same place had a swap meet/clearance sale in the late winter. Might look at those places as well as the large chains.
Originally Posted by Wallacelantz There is an expo in february that you may want to check out in Indianola. Canoesport Outfitters Good find! I'll have to check that out, unless I can find a great deal before then I likely won't have purchased anything yet anyways.
Story City put a type of white river play area on the Skunk River a few years ago. I know someone from Omaha who goes there on occasion to practice. I would think there must be some sort of kayaking club that could give you advice. Might even have a used one for sale.
They say country music speaks to the heart. Unfortunately, it has to go through your ears to get there.
Kayaking is great! I definitely prefer it over canoeing. I own a Old Town, Otter. It's only 10' long, but super stable and maneuverable. It's not as sleek and streamlined as the longer boats, but i've been able to keep up w/ my friends that own fancier 16' kayaks and I'm able to paddle circles around them. I originally purchased it as a "starter" kayak, but I no longer feel it necessary to upgrade to something better. Plus for the price I ended up purchasing another one for my girlfriend and I don't feel bad scuffing it up on rocks and branches. Good luck w/ your purchase!
Originally Posted by Wallacelantz There is an expo in february that you may want to check out in Indianola. Canoesport Outfitters I will second this. This place is great, especially for someone getting into kayaking. Prices may be a little higher, but they only sell top quality products and they are wonderful to work with. The only other place I'd go is Rutabagas in Madison. If you're new to this, I'd stay away from chain stores because you're not going to get the same personal attention.
I've had an Old Town dirigo 12 ft kayak for 3 years and love it. Got it from LL Bean as a fishing package for $800. It does not need to be registered in Ia. I also have 2 Sea Eagle inflatable boats that I love to use in Ia rivers. They have a selection of kayaks that are worth looking at. seaeagle.com
So between a 10 ft and 12 ft kayak what's the biggest difference (other than 2 ft haha)
OP, JAX has kayaks you can rent. try a few out, figure out what works for you. they also have a bunch of outdoor enthusiasts that work there that can help you out as far as making a selection. Plus they will work with you on price a bit this time of year since it's the offseason.
Originally Posted by JoshTheCyclone So between a 10 ft and 12 ft kayak what's the biggest difference (other than 2 ft haha) I have a 12 with a cubby hole and my wife has a 10. Hers can turn in circles a little easier but mine can cruise at a faster speed.
Originally Posted by JP4CY I have a 12 with a cubby hole and my wife has a 10. Hers can turn in circles a little easier but mine can cruise at a faster speed. That's what I was thinking, I think I'd rather have the problem of more difficult turns as opposed to not being able to keep up with friends on the water.
May I suggest getting to know these people well? Skunk River Paddlers
I have a 10 Ft. Wilderness Systems Pungo100. I has a dry storage area in the rear, a decent seat, foot pedal adjustments but has no rudder. It does have places to run cables and a rudder built in, I just haven't found it necessary. It is easy enough to control with just the paddle. We bought ours used for $400. But then spent equally that amount getting a carrier for our Pilot. The only bad thing I'll say about the 10ft boat is that it seems a little undersized for me. I'm 6'2" and while I fit, my knees are popped way up and the padding around the opening doesn't hit me in the right spot. I tried a 12 ft. at Scheels after we bought this and found it fit me way better. For the amount of time I spend in it though, it is good enough.

Those seem interesting if your goal is to go on a hiking trip, but take one day to spend on the water. Otherwise they seem like they are hard to paddle in a straight line because you can't get your paddle under you, it has to go out to the side. On an unrelated note, I have a buddy who has one of those cheap plastic kayaks that you sit on (not in) that he takes fishing all of the time. He has it rigged up to have three trolling lines out while he paddles. Once I get a real job, and have room for storage of a boat, I'm going to get a nice canoe. A boating trip isn't a boating trip if you can't take the pooch! Also, I'll be using it for BWCA trips. I've tagged this as my first luxury purchase once I get out of grad school and get a real job.

if you are planning on fishing out of a kayak i suggest trying out both a sit-in and sit on top kayak. i tried fishing out of a sit-in this summer and found it a little cramped, plus i couldn't stand up in it like you can with most of the sit on tops. you can't hit too big of whitewater with sit on tops, but if you don't plan on using it for whitewater and plan to do a lot of fishing or flatwater (lake or small river) paddling they are great. i have been looking to get a sit on top yak for the past year and have been eyeing several different ones. just haven't found time to try them all out yet. take a look at: jackson's coosa, kuda or the new big tuna, they are a little exspensive, but if you plan to fish a lot of them there are a lot of great features already built in to the boat wilderness systems fishing line of yaks: pungo, ride or tarpon there is also a newer design fishing yak made by native: slayer with a little google fu do some more research about kayaks in general and search some forums for reviews on specific models of kayaks you might be interested. one forum i learned a lot about sit on tops is TexasKayakFisherman.com • Index page oh and as other have mentioned, find out where the closest dealers of yak are at and ask them when they will be holding a demo day(s). usually they will have a full line of the makes and models they carry and you will be able to test them out. some dealers will even let you rent or borrow a yak to demo when they aren't holding demo events. try a few yaks out and determine which is the most comfortable for you. if you plan on fishing out of a yak, i suggest bringing your rod and real and see how well you like fishing out of it.

Described as a "quartet with a difference" by the Irish Times, the Dublin Guitar Quartet (DGQ) is a one-of-a-kind classical guitar ensemble that occupies a unique space in the wider chamber music world. It is the first classical guitar quartet devoted to new music.
Since its formation at the Dublin Conservatory of Music and Drama, DGQ has worked to expand the limited repertoire by commissioning new works and adapting modern masterpieces from outside of the guitar repertoire.
Audiences can expect an explosive, entertaining, and completely novel concert experience.
With the help of eight and eleven-string guitars the quartet has created an original catalog of arrangements by composers such as Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Arvo Part, and Gyorgy Ligeti.

text: Winner Announced For Busch Gardens' Landscaping Giveaway 3/25/2013 9:17:00 AM WINNER ANNOUNCED FOR BUSCH GARDENS' LANDSCAPING GIVEAWAY Busch Gardens Landscaping Pros Headed to North Carolina WILLIAMSBURG (March 25, 2013) – Busch Gardens® landscaping experts are hitting the road to bring the awe-inspiring beauty of the park to North Carolina. Busch Gardens announced Tammy Bennett from Washington, N.C., the winner of the first-ever Busch Gardens' Landscaping Giveaway. Bennett's prize is a yard landscaping package that includes consultation services from Busch Gardens' horticultural professionals, landscaping and gardening supplies and landscaping installation. "I am so excited and cannot wait for them to get started. Busch Gardens has the most beautiful flowers and gardens. Every time we go, I wish my yard would look like that," said Bennett after learning she won the landscaping giveaway. Busch Gardens announced the giveaway in early March via its Facebook page - facebook.com/buschgardens. Entries poured in from the Southern and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. Participants submitted a photo of their home and a story about why they deserved to win the Busch Gardens' Landscaping Giveaway. After reviewing hundreds of submissions, Busch Gardens narrowed the landscaping giveaway submissions down to 20 finalists. According to Bennett's submission, she purchased her dream home right after receiving a kidney transplant; her husband was her kidney donor. The Bennett family hoped to fix up their home right after purchasing it, but due to medical and financial hardships they had to put their dream on hold. "We have been living here 6 1/2 years, this house was in foreclosure and it was a mess. There were trees and bushes growing into the side of our house and into the attic, we had to rip them all down. The lawn had not been mowed in a year, so it was pretty much knee high and mostly weeds. With all the money we spent on the inside of the house, we just never could afford to do the outside or any landscaping projects," said Bennett. After announcing the finalists, Busch Gardens invited its Facebook fans to cast their vote for their favorite finalist. Bennett received more than half of the 43,000 votes cast for the giveaway. Later this spring, the Busch Gardens team will visit the Bennett home to install the landscaping. For 22 consecutive years Busch Gardens has won the "Most Beautiful Park" award from the National Amusement Park Historical Association.

Does the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) pull up Indian drug makers the most? Not really. Despite the recent instances of top Indian drug makers, including Ranbaxy Laboratories Ltd, Wockhardt Ltd, Lupin and Aurobindo Pharma Ltd, being bombarded with import alerts or warned about lax manufacturing practices by the FDA, only 47 drug manufacturing facilities or 9% of total units approved by the American regulator has been banned from exporting products (be it drugs, food products or medical devices) to the US market till date.
China has over 960 FDA-approved manufacturing sites, the highest number outside the US, and has around 8% of these sites under an import ban by the FDA, not very different from India in terms of incidence of adverse FDA action. However, if you look at countries like Mexico, the UK and Canada, the number of factories under an import alert as a percentage of total US registered sites is much higher that in India or China.
Remember that India has 526 manufacturing facilities approved by the American regulator, the second-highest number outside of US, and accounts for nearly 40% of the generic drugs sold in the that country.
While 74% of Mexican drug making sites registered with FDA are under a ban, around 30% of Canadian and British manufacturing facilities that are approved by the FDA to supply medicines have been issued an import alert.
FDA�s spokesperson in India, Christopher C Kelly, told FE that while the regulator is �confident that many (Indian) companies understand and have implemented good manufacturing practices (GMP), we (FDA) also remain vigilant to take appropriate action if or when lapses, occur�.
