These sandals fit & feel great, and good quality! I usually can't stand wearing "thongs" b/c it would rub the big toe. I bought my first pair a couple months ago and haven't worn any of my other "comfortable, built in" sandals since. I have had no problems with my big toe being rubbed. The sole provides good protection but is not bulky. I just bought 2 additional pairs for future use (they are always changing designs from year to year). I recommend this flipflop/sandal/thong to EVERYONE!!!!!
Pros: Build qualityBest Flip Flops Available
September 10, 2009
I applaud the Nike for bringing a flip flop that's comfortable all day & night! These are lightweight and feminine looking too.
Best purchase ever
February 13, 2011
The fit is great and you can't beat the price, especially for a size 11. I've got them in Black & Brown. Easy website to order from also and it was shipped promptly.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Great valueFinally found them
February 12, 2012
I have a pair of these flip flops and love them. I wanted another pair for a back up just in case they don't make them anymore. They are very comfortable and are true to size.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Great valuebestest flipflops EVER
July 14, 2011
These are the best, most comfy flipflops I've ever worn. I've owned 2pairs over the last 6years, and yes, they each have lasted me for 3years each. Survived walking around New York for two weeks because of these puppies.... absolutely wonderful!

Nike Celso Girl Thong
March 26, 2008
Love them..... so comfortable. First purchase and will keep buying them in all colors.
Most comfortable thong ever!
August 10, 2010
I love these so much, they're super comfortable thanks to the rubber sole and the ideal choice for summer. They're durable too so great for walking around the city (no need to carry sneakers to/from work) and your feet won't slide around in them when they get hot. I wear mine every day without fail, I'm hooked.
Perfect Flipflop
March 18, 2012
I love being barefoot but am a tenderfoot. I have tried and tried to find flip flops that are comfortable and stay on my feet. These fit the bill exactly. They look good, the thong is comfortable for a full day of walking and you don't have to clench your toes to keep from losing them. The best part is that the sole, although flexible, is thick and firm enough that they really cushion the bottoms of your feet. The bottoms of my feet never get sore, even after a long day of pounding the pavement as a tourist on vacation. They do a much better job of this than the trail shoes I bought for that purpose and now only wear in cold weather. I wear these with everything: shorts, jeans, and dresses/suits to work. Please, Nike, don't ever stop making these! I do have trouble finding the colors they are supposed to come in, however. I've got black/white and black/grey.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Great value, comfortGreat flip flops!
May 15, 2011
I searched the world over for flip flops that are durable, come in different colors, and most important do NOT give me blisters. Well, I found them. These flip flops are made of a material that will not rub you the wrong way:) But in all seriousness, I take long walks (at least an hour) pretty much everyday when I walk my little one, and I needed some reliable flip flops because the summers in Texas are brutal. Yesterday I ended up walking two hours in hot humid weather and not even any red irritation marks in my feet. I got them in three colors. That pink is really pink.
Pros: Build quality, Performance, Great valueJUST WHAT I WANTED
August 05, 2008
Super pair of sandals!
August 30, 2009
Great value for a great pair of sandals! These "flip flops" are super lightweight and extremely comfortable. They provide a nice cushioned support.
Fabulous Flip Flop !
June 05, 2009
Not only comfortable but supportive too. Did not need any "break-in" time. True size and good looking. Great Flip Flop for any activity.

Awesome flip flops

These shoes are very comfortable and well made. I have 3 pair.
Great Summer Footwear
June 29, 2011
This style of flip-flop by Nike fits extremely well. The strap fits close to the foot and doesn't stretch out. The soles are extremely comfortable, do not break down, are thick enough to cushion the foot but are not clunckly and oversized. Great summer sandal.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Great valueMost comfortable flip flops

Celso Girl Thong
February 19, 2009
This is a great flip flop. I have never been able to wear flip flops until I tried these. They are so comfortable. I wear them everyday even when it is cold out because they are so comfortable and easy to wear. I now am on a mission to get more colors. I also love the Celso Thong Plus.
They fit my narrow feet!
August 04, 2010
I have never been able to find flip flops that are comfortable to wear because my feet are so narrow and they flop around too much. These fit great and are very comfortable. I have 2 pair so far and want to get more.
great gift
December 29, 2009
I have several of these style flip flops so I bought these as gift and they loved them too..very comfortable
Best flip flops ever! I now own 3 pairs!
October 08, 2009
So many flip flops are uncomfortable on my toes but these feel great the first wearing.
Most comfortable flipflop I have ever worn
April 25, 2011
I have been wearing these for about 6 years, and I wont buy any other brand. They are the best. If you are heavy like I am you might wear them flat after about 5 years, but they hold up much better than any others I have tried. They also cling tightly and dont flop too much. I sometimes have trouble finding them. I was thrilled to find 3 pair. They wash well in the machine and I just lay them out to dry.
Super Fast Shipping!!!

I love this shoe! My dog at my old Nike sandals and I have been looking for a replacement of the same quality. This shoe passes with flying colors. They are comfortable and well-padded. I choose to take walks in these rather than tennis shoes. I am happy I got them!

I have 8 pairs of these. I buy a new color as soon as I can find it in my size. I wear them year round, inside and out. They are exceptionally comfortable, have good support, and are very well made. They are very hard to find but Altrec is the best source and has the best deals.

Because something about late summer evenings, a used putter and a colored golf ball just fit together; we overhauled our 19 holes of mini golf to create a set of signature holes that you can only find on our mountain. New this year, you'll not only have to read the greens, but avoid the game's most artistic hazards: the PCMR Snowbugs.

Spend five minutes in Park City and you'll know that this mountain town doesn't take itself too seriously. But during Sundays in the summer, Main Street takes the fun up another notch with the Park Silly Sunday Market: a weekly market/street fair that turns Main St into a carnival of art and food vendors, performers, live music and activities.

Time to dig out the flip-flops, pull the cover off the grill and enjoy those lazy summer days. But if you think we're sitting back and putting our feet up during the dog days, think again. We open for summer on Friday, May 24 (just in time for Memorial Day Weekend) and we've got a couple new summer wrinkles in addition to our classic adventures.

All summer I've been talking about exploring what happens after Shadow Lake, with fall in full swing, I decided it was now or never. After mapping together a group of trails that would give us several downhill thrills and only a few climbs, we drove to the top of Guardsman for a nine mile downhill, cross country ride.

Overview Background Argument and
Methodology The authors also show that the timing of payments deviated markedly from the customary patterns. The variability of payments timing rose sharplyalmost doubling to about four hours from twoand payments were delayed by roughly two hours on average (chart). In this environment, banks were unsure when they would receive expected payments and whether they would be able to synchronize their outgoing payments with incoming funds from other banks. Banks responded to the uncertainty, the authors argue, by increasing their precautionary demand for liquidity. To test this interpretation, the authors estimate banks payments reactions to the receipt of payments from other banks. Using data on the Fedwire activity of twenty large banks, they assess banks propensity to send out payments in response to incoming payments both before and after September 11. They find a distinct shift after September 11, with the typical bank requiring more of a liquidity cushion in advance of sending out payments than it had in the preceding period. The authors then show how the Federal Reserves actions to meet banks demand for liquidity helped to reestablish payments coordination. Specifically, the Fed lent billions of dollars through the discount windowmore than two hundred times the daily average amount of lending in the prior monthand temporarily suspended penalties on intraday and overnight overdrafts. These actions reduced banks reliance on payments from other banks and encouraged banks to resume sending their payments in more normal patterns. In the week of September 17-21, the Fed injected additional liquidity into banks accounts through open market operations, bringing payments coordination to higher than normal levels (chart). Findings The authors conclude their analysis with a brief look at long-run reforms that could mitigate the impact of future disruptions to the payments system. They discuss current proposals for safeguarding the physical infrastructure of the system and examine possible changes in the protocols for submitting and settling payments. |

I installed PS CS6 Extended, without any problem, on a MacPro using OS X 10.7.4, 16GB memory, Quad-Core Intel Xeon. Program works with Nikon D700
images. I tried to look at Nikon D800 images and PS CS6 gives me an error: "Photoshop cannot open this file ... ." I downloaded ACR 6.7, with out difficulty,
and the error continues. I even rebooted the computer, and the error continues.
Please advice.
A card reader might help, since your card is not mounting. Have you tried using Bridge to import your files? Are you sure you have installed ACR 7.1 correctly? Launch Photoshop. Go to Photoshop>About plug-in>Camera Raw ..what version do you see installed? We had reports that Nikon transfer is corrupting NEFs, so try to transfer photos directly into your system.
Does this DPReview D800 NEF work? http://movies.dpreview.com.s3.amazonaws.com/nikon_d800/DSC_0241.NEF.zi p
If you have Nikon D4/D800/D800E NEF files that cannot be read in the final release of ACR 7.1 or LR 4.1, please send them to me (email@example.com, via YouSendIt or Dropbox, etc.). Please make sure you are not using Nikon Transfer to copy/transfer the images (if you are, the resulting images will be unreadable).

WAUKESHA (WKOW) -- The sudden closing of the Golden Guernsey milk plant in Waukesha is also impacting dairy haulers in Southern Wisconsin.
Dennis Peterson says for the past ten years he's been driving for an independent distributor, working with Golden Guernsey.
But the Monticello man now finds himself looking for a job.
"My boss called me. I was halfway to Waukesha," Peterson said while relaying how he heard about the plant closing. "He said, 'Where you are at?' I said halfway to Waukesha. And he said, 'Turn around and come back. The plant is closed.'"
Peterson says all the distributors he's talked to are in shock because they had no notice.
"Not a month, not a week, not an hour. They just closed the plant," Peterson says.
Former employees at the plant were also shocked by the news.
They say about 100 employees were told, without warning, to leave the plant Saturday morning.
Some of those workers held a demonstration in front of the plant Sunday afternoon.
Many of them, like Ben Tetzlaff, worked at Golden Guernsey for decades.
"This is like a kick right in the gut, you know just ah, bang!" Tetzlaff said. "It's ah, it's hard to believe that they would just shut down a plant, especially a fluid milk plant that just got to be run everyday basically, 'cause we have employees here seven days a week around the clock just about."
Golden Guernsey was recently purchased by a California-based investment group.
WISN in Milwaukee reports the plant provided milk for many Milwaukee-area schools, which may now have to quickly find another supplier.

Reviews of Classes at Liloveve
7 out of 7
Attended: Steel Fabrication
This was a great class! I am an absolute novice when it comes to jewelry design, but the teacher was very patient and clear in his explanations, and the other students were so enthusiastic about their projects. The space is a really good one to work in. I never felt crowded. They have plenty of tools & resources available to use, but you should bring your own files and saw. Overall I would recommend this class to both beginners and advanced jewelry makers who want to learn more about the specific properties of working with steel. Bryce was very knowledgable and loved to discuss his craft.
Attended: Bangle Bracelets Intensive
Great class with a very organized, knowledgeable, skillful, and patient teacher! I was especially impressed with how she taught soldering--which isn't an easy thing to teach. The fact that there were only five students allowed her to give each of us individual instruction and assistance. I am very happy with the bracelets I made, and I know what I need to do next to improve my next bracelets.
Attended: Wax Carving I
The instructor was so nice and really took the time to help everyone. I intend to sign up for the metal smithing class in the fall. I would recommend anyone to take a class there or just visit and see the showroom.
Attended: Ring Making Intensive
Excellent class, instructor and overall experience.
Attended: Ring Making Intensive
They're very well organized and had all the necessary tools and equipment set up for the course. And everyone had their own workstation. The overall class was great. The instructor was nice, knowledgeable and patient. Her teaching was thorough and she gave everyone an equal amount of attention. She stayed on top of who was doing what as far as safety goes. This was for the one day ring workshop. I got to make three rings--2 thin and one band. I liked it a lot. :)

Carl Edwards: 7 Keys to Be the Next NASCAR Sprint Cup Champ
By David DeNenno ,
Context can be a decisive factor in how we, or the actual competitors, view the results of a singular sporting event. The case of Carl Edwards' 2011 Chase season serves as a stark reminder of that notion.
During the third race of the Chase for the Sprint Cup at Dover, Edwards piloted what was by far the fastest car on the track. He entered a pit stop in the top five well into the race and was charged with a speeding penalty with 150 of 400 laps remaining.
That unforced error dropped him back 20 places and as far back as 27th. Because of his skill and the car his team had engineered, he was able to fight his way back to a third-place finish.
After the conclusion of the race, he thoroughly apologized to his team and owner.
The very next week at Kansas, Edwards fought a bad car all day long, despite qualifying second. From the outset of that race he looked weak. He almost caused a caution on lap one, nearly swerving into his Roush Fenway Racing teammate and pole sitter, Greg Biffle.
Somehow he battled back and gained a fifth-place finish. He reacted quite differently than his performance at Dover: he thought that his team should celebrate as if it won and drink champagne.
At day's end, he was in first place in the standings for the Chase for the Sprint Cup.
With six races to go, he now must defend his meager one-point lead until the end of November to gain his first championship.
Here is how he can do it: the theme words are "avoid" and "repeat."
Carl Edwards' costly penalty at Dover clearly shows that he must avoid this kind of mental error in the next six races. It could eventually end up costing him the championship if it comes within one or two points.
He was truly blessed to have the car that he did. Without it, and his "disappointing" third place finish, his current rank would be in the middle of the pack of the Chase standings.
For anyone unaware, that is not the No. 66 smoking and floating. That is Carl Edwards flipping in turn four at Talladega a few seasons ago in his familiar No. 99.
To be fair, this was an insane crash, but Talladega is famous for supplying huge, multi-car crashes that can crush the dreams of more than a couple of Chase contenders in seconds.
Talladega looms for all drivers as the sixth race of the Chase. They all have to avoid the "Big One." Whether or not he leads the standings going into this race, "Cousin" Carl has to avoid this catastrophe in order to continue his fight for a Sprint Cup championship.
The perils of the "Big One" will not get easier for Edwards after the Talladega race. The seventh race of the Chase will take him to the short track of Martinsville, VA, a course where he is historically poor.
Theoretically, Chase drivers have room for one forgetful day during the Chase season. Carl Edwards could truly help his championship run by avoiding that day in Martinsville.
He has one top-five and four top-10 finishes in 14 attempts. In his last five races there, he has finished 18th or worse three times.
So long as he can make a top-15 finish, his title hopes should remain intact. He rose to first place through four Chase races by averaging a fifth-place finish without once visiting victory lane.
The real necessity for him here is to transcend his history and avoid repeating it at Martinsville.
To be fair, it is tough to say that Carl Edwards' only true miscue of the season was completely his fault. I watched the video from the February 2011 Phoenix race several times and it really looked like Kyle Busch got loose and hit him hard, inadvertently.
Either way, the first 70 laps of this race were VERY rough. A 13-car incident after Brian Vickers turned sideways induced a red flag; this after the Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne and Edwards had already retired to the garage from substantial collision damage.
It is easier said than done to avoid this kind of carnage. Sometimes the fate of one driver is truly in the hands of another, no matter how good his car is or how well he is driving.
Enough with what he needs to avoid for a bit...
Here is what he needs to repeat:
Carl Edwards finished the 2010 season in as solid a manner possible. He won the final two Chase races.
In contrast to this year's crash at Phoenix, he won there in the late fall of 2010 and finished out the season with a victory at Homestead Miami. Jimmie Johnson won the championship, but Carl Edwards built a foundation for his success in 2011 with those two closing wins.
This is a highly difficult task to duplicate. However, if Edwards could miraculously pull off consecutive season finale wins, he will be the next Sprint Cup Champion.
This is simple logic: Edwards has maintained an average finishing result of fifth place through four Chase races. Indeed, his average was the same through three Chase races and stayed the same upon his charge to fifth place at Kansas.
It has landed him in first place, outright, in the Chase standings through four races.
Winning, therefore, is not a complete necessity. It helps, but if he can continue his current Chase average, there is no doubt that he will be, at the very least, contending at the final race in Miami.
This is almost a cliche. In fact, it is directly tied to the repetition of his finishing. Trying to "out-point" other drivers during the course of the next five races could land Edwards in harms way.
It could cause him to be overly aggressive and make a costly mistake, especially late in a race when his adrenaline is already pumping.
The onus is on his spotter and crew chief not to feed him this kind of information, even if he asks for it.
Understandably, this may occur in the last race when the trophy is truly on the line. Edwards and crew have to avoid this temptation for the next five races and focus only on quality finishing.
They get a "lucky dog" pass if they start this during the last race at Homestead Miami. Would not you do the same?

LinkedIn's leaky network security
LinkedIn had a rough week on the security front.
Hours after LinkedIn members reported that their passwords were on a list of stolen passwords, the business-networking site confirmed that some 6.5 million of its members' passwords had been stolen and uploaded to a Russian hacker server. At this point, it's not clear how many of the passwords were cracked.
The damage appears to be somewhat limited in scope of data, the post says, but it's also still unclear how many of the site's more than 160 million users may have been affected. After realizing the problem, … Read more

Hack and / - When Disaster Strikes: Hard Drive Crashes
To make things a little confusing, there are two similar tools with almost identical names. dd_rescue (with an underscore) is an older rescue tool that still does the job, but it works in a fairly basic manner. It starts at the beginning of the drive, and when it encounters errors, it retries a number of times and then moves to the next block. Eventually (usually after a few days), it reaches the end of the drive. Often bad blocks are clustered together, and in the case when all of the bad blocks are near the beginning of the drive, you could waste a lot of time trying to read them instead of recovering all of the good blocks.
The ddrescue tool (no underscore) is part of the GNU Project and takes the basic algorithm of dd_rescue further. ddrescue tries to recover all of the good data from the device first and then divides and conquers the remaining bad blocks until it has tried to recover the entire drive. Another added feature of ddrescue is that it optionally can maintain a log file of what it already has recovered, so you can stop the program and then resume later right where you left off. This is useful when you believe ddrescue has recovered the bulk of the good data. You can stop the program and make a copy of the mostly complete image, so you can attempt to repair it, and then start ddrescue again to complete the image.
The first thing you will need when creating an image of your failed drive is another drive of equal or greater size to store the image. If you plan to use the second drive as a replacement, you probably will want to image directly from one device to the next. However, if you just want to mount the image and recover particular files, or want to store the image on an already-formatted partition or want to recover from another computer, you likely will create the image as a file. If you do want to image to a file, your job will be simpler if you image one partition from the drive at a time. That way, it will be easier to mount and fsck the image later.
The ddrescue program is available as a package (ddrescue in Debian and Ubuntu), or you can download and install it from the project page. Note that if you are trying to recover the main disk of a system, you clearly will need to recover either using a second system or find a rescue disk that has ddrescue or can install it live (Knoppix fits the bill, for instance).
Once ddrescue is installed, it is relatively simple to run. The first argument is the device you want to image. The second argument is the device or file to which you want to image. The optional third argument is the path to a log file ddrescue can maintain so that it can resume. For our example, let's say I have a failing hard drive at /dev/sda and have mounted a large partition to store the image at /mnt/recovery/. I would run the following command to rescue the first partition on /dev/sda:
$ sudo ddrescue /dev/sda1 /mnt/recovery/sda1_image.img /mnt/recovery/logfile Press Ctrl-C to interrupt Initial status (read from logfile) rescued: 0 B, errsize: 0 B, errors: 0 Current status rescued: 349372 kB, errsize: 0 B, current rate: 19398 kB/s ipos: 349372 kB, errors: 0, average rate: 16162 kB/s opos: 349372 kB
Note that you need to run ddrescue with root privileges. Also notice that I specified /dev/sda1 as the source device, as I wanted to image to a file. If I were going to output to another hard drive device (like /dev/sdb), I would have specified /dev/sda instead. If there were more than one partition on this drive that I wanted to recover, I would repeat this command for each partition and save each as its own image.
As you can see, a great thing about ddrescue is that it gives you constantly updating output, so you can gauge your progress as you rescue the partition. In fact, in some circumstances, I prefer using ddrescue over dd for regular imaging as well, just for the progress output. Having constant progress output additionally is useful when considering how long it can take to rescue a failing drive. In some circumstances, it even can take a few days, depending on the size of the drive, so it's good to know how far along you are.
Once you have a complete image of your drive or partition, the next step is to repair the filesystem. Presumably, there were bad blocks and areas that ddrescue could not recover, so the goal here is to attempt to repair enough of the filesystem so you at least can mount it. Now, if you had imaged to another hard drive, you would run the fsck against individual partitions on the drive. In my case, I created an image file, so I can run fsck directly against the file:
$ sudo fsck -y /mnt/recovery/sda1_image.img
I'm assuming I will encounter errors on the filesystem, so I added the -y option, which will make fsck go ahead and attempt to repair all of the errors without prompting me.

Partially unrecoverable allocation table
Tried it all but my rescued image does not show any file under /home/lopo although they are there. On an 92GB partition on less than 700KB are damaged but it was enough to lost everything ;(
Foremost does not reconigzed a lot of my files: bz2, gz, svg, odf files, etc., so -t all is not really ALL.
dd progress report with USR1 signal
While I have no quibble with using ddrescue instead of dd (the wonderful thing about *nix is that there are 72 different ways to do anything) I do have to comment on your statement: "In fact, in some circumstances, I prefer using ddrescue over dd for regular imaging as well, just for the progress output."
dd provides progress info if you send a USR1 to the process. From the dd(1) man page:
Sending a USR1 signal to a running `dd' process makes it
print I/O statistics to standard error and then resume copying.
I guess I'm lucky
I guess I'm lucky then.
I've never had a hard drive fail on me. Ever. Not at work, not at home.
I still keep my first PC around, with its fully functional hard drive in it (a 80486 80MHz with a 528 MB hard drive, from 1994 I think).
A Better 'Method of Last Resort'
If you can't mount a ddrescue image, but need to retrieve documents, photographs, pdf files, ect. you can use a nifty program called "foremost." It is available for most *nix platforms, and on Windoze via cygwin. Foremost scans through a hard drive image, mountable or not, and looks for recognizable file headers. It understands over twenty popular file headers including jpg, pdf, doc, xml, etc. When it finds these files it dumps them out as usable files. It is truly a thing of beauty. The first time you use it, you will just sit back in amazement. For example, if you have a hard drive image named my_hd_image.dd, that was made with one of the dd utilities, you could execute the following command:
~$ foremost -t all -i my_hd_image.dd
After the command executes, a subdirectory will be created that has all of the recovered files, organized neatly by file type. On Ubuntu, you can get foremost by typing:
~$ sudo apt-get install foremost
This tools is also excellent for recovering deleted files from USB drives, etc. Enjoy!
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Even before the real estate regulator is formed, consumer courts are taking the lead in establishing the best practices for the sector. On the most common issues � developers taking more than the time they promised in which to deliver a flat � consumer courts are coming down on the side of the buyers.
This time we examine a recent judgment by Maharashtra State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission to figure out if it has a wider application for others in a similar situation. The recent judgement puts the onus of delay beyond reasonable limits on the developers and relieves the buyers the risk of being duped by developers when they renege on their promise.
The case
The Maharashtra State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, in a judgement on September 13, gave a landmark decision in favour of the buyer Anant Ieetkar. Ieetkar had booked a flat in December 2008 in Kalyan, an extended suburb of Mumbai, and paid approximately Rs 19 lakh to the developer. The flat was supposed to be delivered by September 2010. The project was in limbo for years. Construction had not begun. Ieetkar waited until 2011. Eventually, he filed a complaint with the commission.
In his complaint, Ieetkar alleged negligence on the part of the developer in not handing over possession by the promised date. He asked for delivery of the unit, additional charges for the mental harassment he was put through, and the interest payment as per the agreement. In his complaint, Ieetkar also provided documentary proof of the current market value of the flat from a valuer.
The developer admitted to receiving full payment for the flat and that construction would begin �as soon as possible� after getting requisite permissions.
The commission called this case as the �best example how the developer exploits the prospective purchasers� and ordered the developer to pay the current market value of a flat with the same specification in the same locality, which would be around Rs 60 lakh, in case the unit was not delivered within three months. In addition, the commission also directed the developer to pay Ieetkar Rs 3 lakh as compensation for

Racers up a creek without kayaks
Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Boats stolen the night before trip
By: Aldo Santin
Two Manitobans' attempt to compete in the arduous Yukon River Quest got off to a bad start this week when their kayaks were stolen.
Ben Price and Darwin Wiebe spent the past year training for the 715-kilometre race on the Yukon River from Whitehorse to Dawson City. They bought two 17-foot Kevlar kayaks last month and stopped at Price's sister's house on Oakland Avenue in North Kildonan this week before they left on their trip. Read full article.

Wlipn the cfir gave a Inrch which MBt J««k with great forc<> against •one one behind hlhi, and he turned to apologise. I)« flininat lout his breath with RurprlM. For there amlMng *rlth amunement was the girl he had been dreaming abont. Jack waa no senttmentallHt. He was not given to dreaming at all—much. Onljr this girl had got Into his head Home way, how, he couldn't have told, i ond be took to dreaming about her. One night at training camp he had awakened aaddenly In the barracks to And a doxen fellows bending over him "listening In." i "Sweetheart I" One grinning bouI had mocked. "Dee ar little aweet- | heart! Oh, mamma t** "Don't worry, darling. How can I get killed when you're waiting for me," sang another, waving his arms and dancing around on one leg. | "You devils r cried Jack, springing op. Of the dozen men In his bar- j racks, he was probably the only one who didn't have a real sweetheart. So now was It any wonder that be was too paralyzed with amazement to ' make the apology he had begun, and coloi«d like a girl under his tanT His , eyes held hers for qalte several sec¬ onds before he remembered. "I beg your pardon," he said, his hand to l his cap. "I hope I didn't hurt you." "No," she said kindly, "you didn't." "It's too bad a woman has to stand," : declared Jack. "If you say so I'll pick ; up anybody you choose, and you may I have his seat." I "No, thank you. I like to stand." ! "Good," Bftld Jack. "I'm with you. Only soldiers, you see, get the habit." "And I'm trying to get the habit, too." She still fiinllod. The car stopped. "I get off here," Bhe said. j "Why, 8p do L" He alighted flrst and turned to help her off. He could do no less—could he? "I'm going shopping," she explained. His face fell. "Oh, I had hoped that you were going somewhere that I might—that I could perhaps be of i help." "Well, you can. If you really want , to be useful, stay by me and I'll And | plenty for you to do before the after¬ noon's over." I "I'm yours forever," he cried hap- ' Plly. ' ! "I don't want you forever," she said. "But I can make good use of you this afternoon. I need some one to help ] m^ with my family." i "Your family 1" I "Don't look so horrified. Tra not ' the mother of ten, nor the wife of any- \ body at all. You see, I've been trying ; to hunt up families of drafted eoldlers ' who need help. There are people too proud to ask for aid. Take the | Caseya I've just discovered. j "You're a sort of good Samaritan," j eald Jack, admiringly. | "No, I'm not. Don't call me that," fihe denied impatiently, turning Into a big department store. "I'm going to i get them a few things they need, | though, and as deliveries are slow you may help carry if you wish." And so Jack and the girl arrived at Casey's, laden like caravan camels. •"Now, you toll -Mr. Casey a few funny stories to du^er him up," Haid the girl, "while I make a hot poultice, and put things lu the kitchen to rights." So Lieutenant Jack and the dream girl stayed all afternoon at theCaseys*. I5y five o'clock the Utile bouse was In order, dinner ready, uud a neighbor j Installed to serve It. | ' .jl'Cau't I call u taxicab?" asked Jack, when they were ready to depart. "The cars are so crowded now." | "No," she refused. "I either walk or use street curs everywhere I go | now. War times!" she reminded. j "But you spent a fortune on those i people thl-s afternoon." I "That's it, d(m't you see. I save { where I can. Its a little game of my ' own." , . ,>.-..,,.,.,-^ j When he put her on the.car, she held out iior hand. "Thank you, oh so much, for nil you've dune today. I'erhaps nuother day I may ask your nssistance. But you see I don't know yet who you are." Ho gave her a card. "I'm only borne another week," he eald. "Make it soon, won't youT But won't you tell me your name, now?" "And Isn't It funny," she eald teas- Ingly, after a second's hesitation, "I haven't any. Just call me the Dream Girl," That ulght Jack was going over some sport things be was packing away, and unfolded an oki newspaper full of tish hooks, reels and flies, he had brought home in the spring from a fishing trip. And there was a full page picture of the Dreain Glrlt He understood It now. His brain had not manufactured her.

Hot 'Witer Cast On Stove Doeiti*t Xou«h It It Is ImpoxslWe to throw a few drops of wafer on a red-hot stove. The water can, never tonch the ntoxc at nil. What Is Keen \n a few drop?- running rapidly over the surface, grnd nally getting smaller as they disap¬ pear. If the drops sre on n perfectly level place one can see under them to the other side of the room, thus prov¬ ing thnt they are not In roninrt with the stove Itself. What actually hap pens Is that the bottom of the drop chnngea at once to steam or vapor on comtAg close to the hot surface, and this mpor is supplied by the drop as It gradaally goes away, Ro the drop rest* on a ctishlon of vnpor until It Is entirely dlsslpnted. This state of wa¬ ter Is known as the spherical stage, and It Is of Interest simply on accnnnt of its pscallarly and seemingly para¬ doxical behavior. The reason why the drop Is not Immediately evapomted or chnnged to stenm Is also very Inter¬ esting. The water vapor that Inter¬ venes between the under surface and the red-hot stove Is « very bad con¬ ductor of heat, and consequently the full Intensity of heat cannot get Into the water Itself, only the amount transmitted through the vapor belns available for that purpose. BADGE OF SPLENDID SERVICE How Rsd Cress Cam* to B« Adopted by Thess Whose Misslen la to Aid ths UnfsrtMnsts. Tho Red Cross as a badge of serv¬ ice for suffering humanity dates back more than three hundred years, writes a correspondent to the Evening Post, and its origin must be of interest at this time when it has expanded as a society into a multitude that ministers to the physical needa of our army and navy here and abroad. Camlllns de Leills was born In the klng[dom of Naples In 1550. After serving In the Venetian srmy h** w*«nt to the hospital of Ran Olsfomo In Rome with an affection of the log. There he was so mnrh Impressed hy the horters and flith of what was little better thsn a pestho^se that he re¬ solved to devote his life to suffering hnmanlty, "to cure for the plsgne- strlcken and to nnrse the sick In their own homes." At thirty-two he wss ordained s priest and set about found¬ ing a religious order "to serve tile sick." "They shall wear a red cross upon their brensts," snid Cnmlllus, "to re¬ mind tiiem of the suffering of our I.,ord Christ. This will give them strength and enrwirsgemehl." Pope SIxtns y confirmed the congregation In 1598, granting them In the brief n special permission to wear "the Red Cross." This same red cross Is the badge of service today, worn by every Catholic religions order thnt takes care of the sick. In every part of the world. This red cross has been blessed In the lei*r settlements of Mo- lokai and Madagascar ; In the cholera hospitals of India and the pestllenoe- strlrken lands of the far Bast, as well as on the battlefields of France. In the calendar St. Csmlllas' day falls npon the 18th of July, and at his spe- clsl masa these words are chanted: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."—Tenth's Companion.

There's plenty to like about the 17.3-inch, touchscreen Dell Studio 17. It's a speedy performer, its audio performance is great, and its multi-touch functionality is implemented well. It's expensive for a machine in Dell's mid-range series, but it's a competent replacement for a desktop PC Read more

Dell Inspiron 15 review
The 15.6-inch Inspiron 15 is a highly customisable laptop, but you'll get a solid chassis and good keyboard no matter which configuration you opt for. Adding on the extras will make the cost rise quickly, but it's possible to build a capable machine for an affordable price Read more

Although an unimpressive battery life limits its portability, it includes a number of upscale extras, such as leather trim and backlit keyboard, and handles high-definition content and light gaming well Read more

Tornado Alley - NOW PLAYING!
Traversing the "severe weather capital of the world," Tornado Alley documents two unprecedented missions seeking to encounter one of Earth's most awe-inspiring events-the birth of a tornado. Filmmaker Sean Casey's personal quest to capture the birth of a tornado with a 70mm camera takes viewers on a breathtaking journey into the heart of the storm. A team of equally driven scientists, the VORTEX2 researchers, experience the relentless strength of nature's elemental forces as they literally surround tornadoes and the super-cell storms that form them, gathering the most comprehensive severe weather data ever collected. This science adventure reveals the beauty and the power of some of our planet's most extreme-and least understood-weather phenomena. Recommended for ages 8 and up

This is a very nice carpet. Perfect for our entryway. The colors matched perfectly to was shown online.
I was sent this rug and it was obviously NOT the rug described on the website. Neither the pattern nor the color was accurate! I was only sent one rug although I ordered 2 and was billed for two. Although, this order was disastrous, Overstock was very accomodating and I was told I would receive a full refund. I am usually very pleased with Overstock. This must have been a fluke.
Though slightly smaller than the advertised size, it is a very pretty rug, with good coloration.
