Taxpayers have been losing money on public-lands grazing, and now the feds have a solution: Charge ranchers even less. Although the Government Accountability Office says the federal grazing program loses $123 million annually, the Forest Service and the BLM plan to cut the fee that ranchers pay to pasture a cow and calf on public land for one month. In 2005, an animal unit month cost $1.79; this year, it will cost $1.56 (HCN, 11/28/05: The Latest Bounce).
From Russia, with love, come drill rigs.
Colorado's natural gas boom means that 80 drill rigs are
punching new wells full-time in the state — but busy energy
companies need at least 100 more rigs, says John Works, managing
director of Emerging Markets Finance International in Denver. The
industry has been importing Chinese and Canadian drill rigs to meet
the demand; this spring, Works' company plans to bring in 15
rigs from Russia and train local crews to run them (HCN, 10/17/05:
Overseas drill rigs head for the West).

Desert Rock power plant on the reservation (HCN, 9/5/05: Pollution

Washington could become the

big utilities to get 15 percent of their electricity from renewable

operators, the measure's definition of "renewable" does not
include hydroelectric power.

IPSWICH — The Ipswich defense was missing two starting cornerbacks and two starting inside linebackers yesterday when the Tigers hosted Newburyport.
Even though the result was a 13-7 loss at the hands of the Clippers, the Ipswich defense looked to be at full strength, even if it wasn't.
After giving up two first-half touchdown runs, the Tigers (1-5) really clamped down defensively and only allowed 40 yards of Newburyport (3-3) offense in the second half.
"I was just absolutely impressed with the people who stepped up and the confidence the starters around them had," Ipswich head coach Ted Flaherty said after the game. "We never, ever felt as if the momentum was coming against us. We felt confident the whole game, and I was very happy with that."
Tyler Cusack broke a 29-yard touchdown run on a toss to the left to cap off Newburyport's first drive of the game. Then late in the second quarter, the Clippers made it 13-0 when senior captain and fullback Samuel Francis took a handoff up the middle and pushed his way into the end zone from 13 yards out.
Newburyport meanwhile held Ipswich to just 24 rushing yards the entire game.
"I think we're good against the run," Clippers head coach Ed Gaudiano explained. "We have been that way all season. Our guys work hard getting to the ball. I don't think we do anything fancy. It's just a good attitude we have defensively."
Ipswich managed only 117 yards of total offense, and had it not been for a 78-yard kickoff return by John Elnagger just before the end of the first half, the Tigers would've posted a goose egg. Elnagger responded to Francis' touchdown to give Ipswich plenty of life before the second half, and while it didn't pay offensive dividends, the Tigers seemed to increase their defensive intensity over the final two quarters.
Elnagger and senior Chris McCormack (seven catches, 65 yards) had a pair of sacks each and helped the Tigers come up big on a couple of fourth downs. Trailing 7-0 in the second quarter, Elnagger sacked the Clippers QB Drew Bourdeau on a fourth-and-short on the Ipswich six-yard line.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Oct. 3, 2006
KCCG-TV2 programming now available on demand online
No matter where viewers may be, access to the Internet will equal access to all of the programs on KCCG-TV2, the city government channel.
With the help of San Francisco-based Granicus, the City of Kansas City, Mo., is making its television programming available on demand online at http://kansascity.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=2.
KCCG-TV2 previously was available only to residents of the City of Kansas City, Mo., who subscribe to Time Warner Cable or Everest Connections, and online at www.kcmo.org/cco. The City is Granicus' first client in Missouri.
"Being able to provide accurate and timely information to citizens and employees is a chief concern for the City Clerk's Office. With this solution you can watch the video and have the meeting agenda with the links to documents all in one window," City Clerk Millie Crossland said.
Crossland researched systems for more than a year before signing the contract with Granicus. In her search she found no other companies that provide the integrated agenda and video system.
The City has been live streaming the City's original shows and meetings broadcast on KCCG-TV2 for three years, but most City employees were not able to watch the streaming video because the firewall prevented this access.
Now that the channel's programming is available on demand online, simultaneous committee meetings can be aired, all viewers can see exactly what they want to see when they want to see it, and they can do key word searches to find the desired programming. This streaming system allows viewers to skip to specific parts of a show or meeting and access additional information on a split screen for all programs that debuted within the past calendar year. The additional information could be a meeting's agenda complete with links about the results of a vote on a particular item of business or a Web site address where more information about the topic being discussed can be found.
Closed captioning is on the City Council's legislative meetings and this feature will be added to other programs as it becomes feasible. The total implementation of the system is estimated to cost $60,000. The City will be charged $2,150 monthly for this system.
"We are excited to provide this convenience and we anticipate that this service will cut down on the requests for video and DVD copies of our meetings and television shows," Crossland said.
It is anticipated that this system eventually will be used by all City departments to train employees and deliver information to citizens about programs and services.
More information about this system is available at http://kansascity.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?publish_id=5.

Poured into an imperial nonic a deep rich amber with a thinner but well formed off white head atop.Aromas of deep vaniila,and caramel eally stand out,the vanilla tinged oak is a bit heavy handed in my opinion.Somewhat boozy and very oaky on the palate,vanilla and caramel flavors add more sweetness,it is very smooth going down though.Another barrel aged beer that gets a little to much of the "aged" flavors,its not bad but it could be better with less aged flavors.

In a tulip this beer was a dark amber color, a little on the red side. There was no head.
The aroma was that of some sweet fruit and vanilla.
Average taste. A little bit of everything, but just a little bit. Some dark fruit, some caramel, some vanilla, some alcohol.
I expected this to be a little more assertive than it was. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't that much of a barleywine.

Thanks to thirdeye11 for sharing this bottle.
The beer pours an amber color with a white head. The aroma is a lot of bourbon and oak, with some brown sugar, maple and alcohol. There is no doubt that this beer was bourbon-barrel aged. The flavor is also heavy on the bourbon. I get a lot of maple, vanilla and brown sugar, as well as some bourbon and oak notes. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
This was sampled alongside the cabernet barrel-aged version, and I thought this was the superior beer.

Poured from bomber into a goblet. Allowed to sit for approx. 20 minutes outside of fridge before opening.
Appearance- Deep dark ruby red brown color. A beautiful light tan one finger head. It takes its time going away, and leaves a surprising amount of lacing.
Smell- Fruity and malty...barely a hint of bourbon. Apple, pear and fig are present.
Taste- I'm getting way more bourbon in the taste than in the nose. Bourbon, oak and apple in that order.
Mouthfeel- way more thick than it looks. This beer was born to be bourbon barrel aged. Just a slight burn from the high alcohol, but who doesn't like a good bourbon burn?
Overall- There is obviously a good reason people are requesting BA beers. This is a grandslam Heavy Seas! They also make this beer non-barrel-aged, I recommend getting both and doing a vertical.

750mL bottle from Premier Gourmet in Buffalo. Enjoyed shortly after the Ravens' first touchdown at the Super Bowl.
Poured into a red wine glass. Dark caramel copper, little bit of head to this, recedes into a fine ring.
Sweet, pleasant nose - really can get the bourbon barrel on this. Sweet malt, lightly burned sugar, mild hops.
Nice barleywine, sweet bourbon entry, finishes with a dry, slightly rough puckery hop character.
Carbonation a bit sharp, medium bodied.
Might be nice to hold on to for cellaring. Enjoyable barleywine.

Bourbon Barrel Aged Below Decks opens to a sweet, fruity nose bearing loads of fruit esters, including very nice bits of plum, fig, orange, grape, and berry, as well as a touch of raisin and prune. These aromas – especially the darker ones – mix well with a light overtone of vanilla, oak, and bourbon from the barrel aging, lending the beer very strong tawny port overtones. In fact, in a blind smelling test, this could be easily mistaken for a light, sweet port, with just a faint hint of extra-vanilla-laden bourbon about the edges. The grains also bring in supporting layers of pie crust and floury baguette, as well as touches of multigrain toast crust, to help offset the sweetness, and touches of brown sugar and amber agave nectar add further dimension to the sugars. As a whole, the nose here is very nice, bearing little in the way of beer aromas, but boasting a full-bodied port-like aroma that is very enticing. The nose can be almost too sweet at times, the fruits coming across like Jolly Rancher candies, but there's just enough darkness and breadiness to prevent it from becoming cloying.
On the tongue, the beer's bourbon barrel aging is immediately obvious, the opening notes being a shot of heavily vanilla-laced bourbon that mixes almost instantly with a huge array of fruits, including plum, cherry, berry, orange, fig, and prune, lending the beer an immediate cocktail-cum-tawny-port overtone that is quite delicious. Further sugars make themselves known after a few seconds, including brown sugar, agave nectar, wildflower honey, and even thin threads of super sweet confectioner's sugar. These sweet notes are lightly held in check by woody overtones from the barrel aging, as well as toast crust, cereal grain, biscuit, and yeasty rising whole wheat dough, though the bready notes occupy much less than half of the flavors. There is an alcoholic vapor that hangs over everything, but it mainly passes off as bourbon – though it can border on vodka. The aftertaste is a continuation of the main mouthful, with a stronger bourbon vapor presence, lingering on the tongue in fruity, alcoholic goodness for a good while. Mouthfeel is medium, and carbonation is medium.
Overall, this is a very nice Barleywine, and the bourbon barrel aging has added a nice layer of complexity that was sorely needed in the basic Below Decks version of this beer. There is perhaps a bit too much sweetness in here (admitting that such a profile fits with the style), and the alcohol vapors do get very strong after a few sips, but on the whole this is very worth trying.

"2012 Vintage" 22oz bottle at fridge temp poured into a snifter.
Pours out a deep mahghony, dark brown, with slight hues of deep red. A decent looking light tan colored head, average head retention. Not a whole lot of lacing. Lots of small carbonation bubbles rushing to the top. Some legs is noticeable however.
Smells of warming bourbon booze, toffee, caramel, a bit of butterscotch, ripe dark fruits with some fruity esters. As it warms the booziness almost becomes solvent like.
Nice taste, lots of sweet butterscotch and caramel but some nice warming bourbon as well, somewhat boozey, some oaky vanilla and a bit of ripe dark fruits. A butterscotch sweetness really lingers with the warming bourbon into the finish.
Mouthfeel at first was pretty thin, seemed to get a little better as it warmed.
Not a bad bourbon aged barleywine, has a really nice sweet butterscotch flavor that I loved. A bit more body and this could have been up there with the best of them.

Bottle shared by Joe - thanks!
Pours a slightly hazy copper color with a one-finger cream-colored head. The head recedes into a patchy layer on top leaving solid lacing.
Smells of sweet caramel malts, toffee, vanilla, and bourbon. As the beer warms the sweetness subsides just a bit.
Tastes very similar to how it smells. Syrupy caramel malt flavors with large amounts of toffee and lighter amounts of vanilla kick things off. Midway through the sip the bourbon really shines as the vanilla flavors intensify and the oak adds a bit of an edge to the flavor profile. The ending is mildly bitter, leaving sweet caramel malt and vanilla flavors lingering on the palate.
Mouthfeel is good. It's got a nice thickness with smooth carbonation.
Drinkability is very good. I finished my glass quickly and could easily have a few more.
Overall this is a very nice bourbon-barrel-aged beer for a relatively low price. Definitely worth a shot.

22oz bottle poured into a snifter. 2012.
A: Pours a clear ruby with a 1 finger off white head. Some visible carbonation in the body. Just a few spots of lacing.
S: Sweet malts and fermented dark fruits blend gracefully with the bourbon. Certainly get the alcohol kick. Plenty of oak, vanilla and toffee to this. Very nice.
T: Am impressed with this malt forward barleywine take on a bourbon barrel aged beer. Kicks with some bourbon on the front, then the malt makes and appearance leaving you with a bourbon aftertaste.
M: Very smooth body with low carbonation. Is really not too hot considering the ABV. Nice sipper here.
Overall Heavy Seas keeps knocking their barrel aged beers out of the park. Give this one a go, or set it down for a few years. Would easily get again.

2010 vintage. Big thanks to ShogoKawada for this extra - enjoyed lightly chilled on a frigid (well, by L.A. standards) eve. Poured from a 22oz bomber into my snifter.
Portland orange highlights suffuse the ambiguously colored dark liquid, topped by a lacy pearling yet meager head with a popped dirty snow collar.
Bourbon assails you at first sniff - the mildly acrid tobacco notes are backed by a touch of vanilla, butterscotch, and a light fruity/floral scent. Very slight oxidative notes seem derived from the barrel - though with bourbon this doesn't make a lot of sense.
Candied fruit, chocolate, moderately bitter hops, loam, brandy, and a sharp almost solventy finish. Brown sugar and maybe a hint of maple come out mid-palate. Aftertaste is long and evolving, suggesting burnt sugar, orange peel, plums, and bourbon.
Medium-bodied, slick, and a touch hot with moderate carbonation.
The ABV is unapologetic in this brew - even reaching your sinuses; this makes the flavor distribution that much more potent, yet reduces the drinkability somewhat.
A hefty powerful barleywine - while not overwhelmed by barrel notes, it certainly doesn't seek to balance them.

A - dark amber with a thin brown head that has great retention
S - caramel, candy sugar, big malt presence
T - baked apples, caramel, candy sugar, bourbon, vanilla, alcohol
M - full bodied, well carbonated, warm
This is another delicious version of the Below Decks. The beer is fantastic on its own, but the bourbon adds depth and mellows the alcohol. The barrels impart not only bourbon, but also some vanilla notes. The maltiness of the beer is balanced, fruity, and sugary - just the way I wanted it to be. This is definitely a beer worth trying.

The keg was dated 11/19/11, and I had it earlier this week, less than 2 months later. I was fooled; the taste suggested something that had been patiently cellared and matured well thereby.
A finger of tan head, ruby/amethyst body (almost purple!). Nice lace.
Plenty of bourbon, sticky toffee malt in the nose.
Magnificent bourbon character. Coconut, oak, malt.
Everything I ever wanted in a bourbon-barrel barleywine, and it turned out to be magnificent fresh.

Bourbon Barrel Below Decks pours a darker copper color. It's a little hazy, and has a deep red look with backlighting. A modest off-white head caps it, and stands about a finger tall. It recedes relatively quickly, and leaves a light, sticky coat of lace in its wake.
The nose is good. It starts out with a light bourbon scent. That's followed by a healthy dose of caramel and toffee. The bourbon scent complements the malts nicely. It's not overbearing at all. Oak and vanilla emerge and add nice depth. Light fruit notes are noted. Smells like apple and pear, rather than the typical citrus notes found in American Barleywines. Alcohol is blended pretty well for this big boy. Smells good.
The flavor is probably a little better than the nose, but not enough to trigger a score bump. Sweet caramel and toffee flavors are abundant initially. A light cocoa-ish flavor is also noted. The barrel aging really imparted a nice bourbon flavor. It's light to moderate in strength, but works extremely well with the other flavors. Vanilla and oak are also notable additions. Light apple and pear flavors are noted throughout. Alcohol is barely noticeable in this big boy. Finishes sweet with a touch of bourbon.
This one has a body that's on the lighter side of medium. Carbonation is light, and it is nearly smooth. More body would certainly be a good thing though. Drinkability is good. Despite its stature, it goes down relatively easy. A bomber is probably enough given its strength, but it's deceptive.
Bourbon Barrel Below Decks is good beer. I've enjoyed the bomber and don't have much to complain about at all. It would benefit from a little more body and just a little bit of a hop presence. But, it's good stuff as it is. I like the approach with the barrel aging. I have no idea how long it was in barrels, but it was the perfect time. There's just enough bourbon, vanilla, and oak to make things really click. Easily recommended.

Picked this up a Peabody's in Boone NC, sadly the last of my NC mini-haul
Pours chestnut with a finger of tan head. Average head retention & above average lacing
S: Pears & Bourbon, fades a bit as this warms
T: Rich bourbon notes, cakyness & a touch boozey warmth up front. Jammy notes (apricot & pear ) wrap with vanilla, oakyness, a touch of leafy hops & dryness as this warms. Finishes with fruitty notes, nice Bourbon flavor, oaky dryness & a touch of butterscotch
MF: Slightly over carbonated & a touch thin, warming & smooth once nearer room temp
Loved the flavor on this, but other areas fell flat. For the money I'll take Schlafly's Barrel aged BW at a fraction of the price any day. Still, I was thrilled to try it...

ROCHESTER, Minn. (FOX 47) -- Rochester firefighters battled a complex fire Saturday night that caused an estimated $40,000 in damage at the Kemps ice cream factory.
The Rochester Fire Department responded to a report of a fire in the freezer area shortly before 6:40 p.m. at the plant at 406 N. Broadway. Battalion Chief Kris Jungels said the origin of the fire was a stack of pallets and cardboard under a catwalk where a contractor was welding. Twenty-two firefighters worked until 11:15 p.m. to stop the fire that moved through the massive freezer area.
"They soon recognized that the conveyor system had provided a means for the fire to move throughout the massive freezer area," said Deputy Chief Steven Belau. "Burning material had traveled along the conveyor."
Belau said the air temperature in the freezer area was -40 degrees.
"Firefighters had to be relieved a number of times because of water freezing on their facepieces and firefighting coats, pants and gloves," Belau said. "Many had over a half of inch of ice covering them when they exited which is like encasing them in a layer of inflexible plastic."
Belau said the smoke generated by the fire is called "cold smoke." Cold smoke does not rise, it tends to be extraordinarily dense and heavy so it falls to floor level.
"In this case the cold smoke from the fire filled the entire freezer room making it impossible to see," Belau said. "Firefighters used a search rope to crawl through the room trying to find the fire with their infra red thermal imaging camera that can see heat."
Firefighters had to disassemble the rubber belt conveyor system by hand looking for lingering material that was still burning.
Belau said the fire may have caused hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage due to the production line shut down and lost ice cream.

Carrie Underwood, who played Maria on NBC's live production of "The
Sound of Music," is responding in a gentle manner to detractors of her
portrayal of Maria, the iconic role made famous by Julie Andrews in
Rather than blasting those who didn't fully enjoy her
performance as the governess to the von Trapp children, the singer
revealed that she prayed for them.
The singer had been quite pleased by her performance and the production after the show Thursday.
Underwood tweeted out: "Plain and simple: Mean people need Jesus. They will be in my prayers tonight... 1 Peter 2:1-25."
One person who wasn't quite so thrilled was Kym Karath, who played little Gretl von Trapp in the hit 1965 film.
She tweeted, "Love Carrie Underwood but this role is just not right for her. She is lovely her voice is beautiful but acting is wrong."
Though Underwood's performance didn't feel quite right to Karath, she tweeted that she was pleased with "True Blood" star Stephen Moyer's performance as Capt. von Trapp and Laura Benanti as Elsa.
The special was a hit, drawing 18.5 million viewers. "The Sound of Music Live!" gave NBC its best Thursday since the "ER" series finale in 2009.

So what does the NCAA ruling on OSU mean for the team and the B1G moving forward?
The owner of the tattoo parlor in the Ohio State football scandal received three years in prison
Here is how to fix Ohio State football in five easy steps
ESPN sued Ohio State University today, requesting that the state Supreme Court order the school to release emails among former coach Jim Tressel and others regarding Ted Sarniak, the mentor to former quarterback Terrelle Pryor. OSU denied the public records request by citing FERPA, a federal law designed to protect the privacy of students. ESPN lawyer John Greiner, based in Cincinnati, said in the court filing that the events surrounding OSU football are sad. "But that sadness does not mean that the events should be secret," the filing says.
Click the title for the link. Ohio State vacates all 12 of 2010's wins (including their Sugar Bowl and B1G Championship). Ohio State puts itself on 2 years of probation. Ohio State does not self-impose a future post-season ban or reduction in scholarships. Remember, this will be the floor for the final decision.
Tomorrow will be the day that Ohio State responds to the NCAA charges (thanks for doing it during your week!). From the article... "We've really been hurt by the fact that everybody in the athletic department has been indicted because of the actions of a few." said Athletic Director Gene Smith Of course, just about every team that has faced NCAA sanctions could say the same thing. The sticking point is which few committed the actions, and why didn't the school know what was going on? The fact that some of "the few" in this instance were the school's most high-profile figure and its most recognizable star athlete doesn't help the argument much. Brian Bennett is dead on with this observation: whatever Ohio State self-imposes in the response will serve as the floor for their eventual punishments.

The Kurdish Globe
Duhok city, hosting the final of the Iraqi basketball league for the third year in a row, triumphed to their fourth consecutive title. The final match was held on May 28th at the Sports Education College Hall in Duhok city, in front of many excited fans from both sets of teams. In a remake of last year's duel, Duhok faced its regular challenger, Karkh, from Baghdad in the final.
Duhok mustered a fantastic performance, winning the final contest 80-71. Duhok controlled the game from the outset and kept up the pressure right up to the last minute.
For identifying the league champions, the Iraqi Basketball Association (IBA) put a new system in place. According to the proposed system, the two teams that reach the final had to play a round of three matches with each other. Duhok faced Karkh thrice, winning the first match 88-78 before losing the second one 75-78. The third match ended in Duhok's favor, earning the team the league champions title.
Duhok's basketball team was founded in 1972 and was accepted in the Iraqi league as a fourth-grade team. In the 1980s, the team was promoted to the second grade before moving up to the first grade in the early 1990s. The team joined the Iraqi premier league in 2001 and secured fourth place.
Duhok reputation and strength grew in 2009 when it won the Iraqi basketball premier league title for the first time in its history. Duhok repeated their feat of 2009 by becoming Iraqi champions in 2010, 2011, and 2012.

The ship was beautiful and our cabin gorgeous. The food and wine were good. If we had never been on other Christmas cruises maybe we would have been satisfied. As it was we were very disappointed with the lack of Christmas on the ship. The towns along the Main were all charming decked out for Christmas. Our guide, Victoria, was such fun that even the bus ride had everyone having fun!
(Maybe the happy hour on the bus helped keep us happy!)

vacation rental description
This is a cute and very clean old fashioned cabin on the shore of Green Bay. It is across the Bay from Door County. It is not actually in Door County but rather Cederville, Michigan. It is listed here as Cederville just isn't known to anyone, yet it is faster to drive here from Milwaukee, with far less traffic, than to Door County. This side of the Bay is a secret gem.
We have a beautiful sand beach out the front door. The water is crystal clear and very warm. There is no bloom or algae on this side of the bay. The beaches and shore line here are not developed and you can walk for miles right on the sand. We are next to a county park which has nice walking trails and wonderful wildlife with several nesting pairs of Bald Eagles.
Also on the property and if you have kids, we have a bunkhouse where the kids can go and get out of your hair. There are two bunk beds for them.
The cabin is knotty pine, but fully functional with a large kitchen and eating area.
Refund Poloicy: If we have blocked off your time and have turned away another party you can't get a refund unless we can rent it back to the other party or a new party. As soon as you need to cancel let us know and we will re-open your time period. If we can re rent it we will return all your funds. Remember, once your time period is blocked all potential renters look for someplace else as the calender shows it is rented. We will do our best to rent it out during your period, but if we can't there is no refund.

This is some of the best fishing on the great lakes and at Cedar River there is a boat ramp and two restaurants and an inn/tavern. You can also get limited foodstuffs at Cedar River. Obviously, swimming and water activity are easy enough, but there are also ATV trails, hiking areas and trails, as well charter fishing and hunting. Escanaba, Michigan is an old Great Lakes seaport town with a huge history and some wonderful restaurants. Escanaba is 25
minutes north of the cabin.
While not fancy our cabin is clean. A bit old fashioned perhaps, but a lot of people seem to like that. While our location is directly across the Bay from Door County, it is actually a much easier drive and the travel time is shorter from either Milwaukee or Chicago. We are exactly 3 hours north of Milwaukee.
activities and attractions in Door County Wisconsin
This is a place and in an area that your folks went to when they were kids. Come join us for the calm vacation you need and at a price that will make you feel pretty good too. There are lots of things to do around here including just plunking a chair down in the lake on a sand bar in front of the house and just reading in the sun and staying cool. If you want to do some lake fishing, Charter servive is available out of Cedar Rivers new Marina only four miles away..

Schloss Vollrads- Innenhof
Vollrads Castle is located in the Hessian Rheingau about two kilometers away from the Rhine River at an elevation of 160 meters. The landmark of the castle is the massive tower house. The building was erected on Roman foundations and is surrounded by a picturesque pond. Since the 14th century, Vollrads Castle was the residence of the family Greiffenclau. Today Vollrads Castle counts as one of the oldest vineyards in the world. The trade in wine is documented since the year 1211.

Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)
And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.
Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.
Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!
Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.
But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.
Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.
And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.

Your Day At-a-Glance
On and off the trail, there's a world of cultural discovery—and pleasure
Just like snowflakes, no two days with VBT are alike, given the array of locations and choices for activities. But we set the stage by making sure the best of the region is at your disposal, and leaving plenty of room for you to follow your own inner compass. Here's how it all might unfold….
6 - 8 a.m. in the Lamar Valley, Yellowstone NP
Early risers will enjoy a head start as we spend a rare day away from our skis. Our early morning transfer takes us to the Lamar Valley, known locally as the "American Serengeti," in time to catch a glorious Yellowstone sunrise and increase our chances of seeing wildlife movement. The pristine, snow-covered winter landscape makes spotting wildlife such as elk, bison, bighorn sheep and antelope much easier. Although we likely won't encounter any bears, due to the vast numbers of potential prey, the valley is also one of the best places in the world to catch a glimpse of wild wolves. As we explore, we'll learn more about the successful re-introduction of wolves to Yellowstone and the role that their packs play in the surrounding ecosystem.
8 - 11 a.m. in Planica, Austria
We'll enjoy a delightful morning ski up to the Planica Ski Jump —the world's largest ski flying hill. Then we'll either continue skiing up the valley to the iconic Tamar Hut or take your time skiing the flat valley below. After skiing we'll visit the Olympic Center where we'll enjoy a snack and video, as well as the opportunity to meet 1961 Ski Jump World Record jumper, Joze Slibar.
11 a.m. - 2 p.m. in Yellowstone NP
Today we'll ski along The Lone Star Geyser trail which features both groomed and skier-tracked trails. We will enjoy our packed lunch outside, on route to the Lone Star Geyser. This magnificent geyser erupts routinely every three hours—eruptions can last up to 30 minutes—with water blasting up to 50 feet in the air. Geysers such as Lone Star are quite spectacular in the winter, as the combination of colder temperatures, ice and snow, coupled with hot water and steam, offers the very best viewing.
2 - 4 p.m. in Tarvisio, Italy
After lunch, we make our way towards the International Dog Sledding School run by Ararad Khatchikian, a renowned Iditarod racer. Here, we'll learn how this important means of alpine transport became a sport before enjoying a dog sled ride, mushing the dogs ourselves! When it's not your turn to ride you can ski the trails here or relax in Ararad's house.
4 - 6 p.m. in Podkoren, Slovenia
After skiing and exploring the Olympic Center, it's time to come indoors for a Slovenian cooking class. As we learn to make
, a rolled dough filled with savory cheese and cream, local friends come to tell us the story of Kekec, a fictional children's book hero who's become a Slovenian national icon.
6 - 10 p.m. in Ramsau, Austria
Tonight we work up our appetite with a sleigh ride in the crisp night air up to the Gruberstube for dinner, perhaps borrowing lanterns from the Almfrieden to light our way. The restaurant is about a mile from the hotel, but is well worth the journey. Specializing in traditional Austrian fare, the restaurant offers a variety of fondues and a large selection of excellent wines, so we'll return to our hotel well satiated and ready for a rejuvenating night's rest. Or perhaps we unwind some more and regale our new friends with stories over a nightcap at the inviting bar.

A broken nose, also called a nasal fracture, is a break or crack in a bone in your nose — often the bone over the bridge of your nose.
Common causes of a broken nose include contact sports, physical fights, falls and motor vehicle accidents that result in facial trauma.
Signs and symptoms of a broken nose include pain, swelling and bruising around your nose and under your eyes. Your nose may look crooked, and you may have difficulty breathing.
Treatment for a broken nose may include procedures to realign your nose. Surgery usually isn't necessary for a broken nose.
Signs and symptoms of a broken nose may appear immediately or may take up to three days to develop. Signs and symptoms may include:
When to see a doctor
Seek emergency medical attention if you experience a nose injury accompanied by:
Common causes of a broken nose include:
A broken nose can even be caused by walking into a fixed object, such as a door or wall, or by rough, wrestling-type play.
Any activity that increases your risk of a facial injury increases your risk of a broken nose. Such activities may include:
Complications or injuries related to a broken nose may include:
If your injury is severe, you'll need to seek immediate medical attention and won't have time to prepare for your appointment. But, if the injury to your nose is less severe — accompanied only by swelling and moderate pain — you may choose to wait before seeing your doctor. This allows time for the swelling to subside, so you and your doctor can better evaluate your injury.
However, it's best not to wait longer than three to five days before seeing your doctor if your signs and symptoms persist. And, during this waiting period, get medical attention if:
When you make an appointment, you'll probably start by seeing your family doctor or general practitioner. However, he or she is likely to refer you to a doctor who specializes in disorders of the ear, nose and throat.
Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment, and to know what to expect from your doctor.
What you can do
Preparing a list of questions can help you make the most of your time with your doctor. For a broken nose, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor may ask:
What you can do in the meantime
Immediately after your injury, apply ice to the area to help keep swelling down. Use light pressure to keep the ice on your nose. Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), can help reduce pain. Ibuprofen also can help relieve inflammation.
Your doctor may press gently on the outside of your nose and its surrounding areas. He or she may look inside your nasal passage to check for obstruction and further signs of broken bones. Your doctor may use anesthetics — either a nasal spray or local injections — to make you more comfortable during the exam.
X-rays and other imaging studies are usually unnecessary. However, your doctor may recommend a computerized tomography (CT) scan if the severity of your injuries makes a thorough physical exam impossible or if your doctor suspects you may have other injuries.
If you have a minor fracture that hasn't caused your nose to become crooked or otherwise misshapen, you may not need professional medical treatment. Your doctor may recommend simple self-care measures, such as using ice on the area and taking over-the-counter pain medications.
Fixing displacements and breaks
Your doctor may use either closed reduction or surgery.
Closed reduction
If the break has displaced the bones and cartilage in your nose, your doctor may be able to manually realign them with a nonsurgical procedure called closed reduction. Closed reduction should be conducted no more than 14 days after the fracture.
During this procedure, your doctor:
Severe breaks, multiple breaks or breaks that have gone untreated for more than 14 days may not be candidates for closed reduction. In these cases, surgery to realign the bones and reshape your nose (rhinoplasty) may be necessary.
If the break has damaged your nasal septum, causing obstruction or difficulty breathing, reconstructive surgery called septorhinoplasty may be recommended.
Both surgeries typically are performed on an outpatient basis. Discomfort, swelling and bruising — common side effects — usually improve significantly after about one week.
If you think you may have broken your nose, take these steps to reduce pain and swelling before seeing your doctor:
You can help prevent a nose fracture with these guidelines:

Note: bumped to the frontpage. - ED
In honor of Michael Jordan's 50th birthday on Sunday, let's take a look at his most memorable career games against the Orlando Magic, and how he fared overall against them.
In the regular season, Jordan has five career games over 40 points against Orlando, including two games of 50+ points, with a high game of 64 points on January 16th, 1993. Surprisingly, the Magic beat the Bulls in three of those five games, including the 64-point Jordan game, which the Magic won in overtime, led by Scott Skiles (31 points, 10 assists) and rookie Shaquille O'Neal (29 points, 24 rebounds).
Jordan played 33 career regular season games against the Magic, 27 as a Chicago Bull and six as a Washington Wizard. He scored at least 20 points in 27 of the 33 games, with a low of 12 points. In Jordan's career, he was 27-10 against the Magic in the regular season (24-7 as a Bull, 3-3 as a Wizard).
Jordan averaged 29.5 points per game against Orlando in his career on 47.5% field goal shooting, 39.2% on 3-point field goal shooting, and 81.7% free throw shooting, along with 6.5 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game. Compare those numbers against Orlando to his overall career averages of 30.1 points per game on 49.7% field goal shooting, 32.7% on 3-point shooting, 83.5% free throw shooting, and 6.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game.
In the playoffs, Jordan faced the Magic ten times, all as a member of the Bulls. The Magic beat the Bulls in the 1995 Eastern Conference semifinals 4 games to 2, while Jordan and the Bulls got revenge the following year sweeping the Magic 4 games to 0 in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Jordan averaged 30.4 points per game in the ten playoff games against the Magic, with a high game of 45 in the 1996 ECF.
Finally, let's not forget the 1992 All-Star Game, which was held in Orlando, as Jordan garnered the most votes (1,049,573). He scored 18 points to lead the East along with 5 assists and 2 steals as the West, led by MVP Magic Johnson's 25 points, throttled the East 153-113.

Benjamins SchlafliedVeröffentlicht in Kategorie Musik, Recording am 18. Februar 2014 von Chris – Ersten Kommentar schreiben
Welcome, my Nephew
Here is a little song I wrote for my nephew, who was born two weeks ago, to welcome him into this world and hopefully give him some comfort while he rests from the tiring all-day business of processing his mother's milk. It is thus called Benjamins Schlaflied (Benjamin's Lullaby) and I play the piano and an accordion, which I borrowed from my sister (the mother) a while ago. It is the first time I used an accordion in a song, so please excuse my less than virtuoso playing.
According to the internet, Benjamin may mean "son of the south" or "son of fortune", among other things. If Nomen est Omen, he seems to be destined for a bright future. I give him my best wishes for the journey of live he has embarked on!
