Sweet Maria's would like to be your information source and green coffee supplier for your home coffee roasting adventures. Home roasting is easy! It only takes 5 to 15 minutes and your reward is the freshest coffee around. It requires no fancy equipment and green coffee from Sweet Maria's is half the price of good roasted coffee from a retailer. We have a huge selection of green coffees, each carefully cupped and rated for quality.
We are more than just another online store, we are a virtual coffee university. Simply put, we really like what we do ...
Green Coffee Beans
We are very proud of our unroasted green coffee selection of 50+ types. Each is meticulously cup-rated, and selected from particular current crop lots, representing the "best of the best!"
New Arrivals
- August 22, 2014: Eight new coffees this week - the most we've seen in a while! We have the return of Sweet Maria's Ethiopiques Blend, a yearly favorite. Made up of three new crop washed coffees (all 90+!), this one is an absolute killer in the espresso machine, and a super complex brewed coffee - syrupy sweetness, array of fruits, striking florals and acidity. Sweet Maria's Altiplano Blend is also back up on the site. It's made up of 2 Guatemala coffees, as well as a newly landed Nicaragua. Totally "Classic" espresso profile, chocolate, citrus, body, and slight nuttiness in the finish. A total crowd-pleasing espresso, and great for milk drinks too! We also added two Nicaragua coffees - Nicaragua Finca Buenos Aires Caturra #488, and Nicaragua Finca Buenos Aires Maracaturra. These two coffees from the same farm, show quite a varied range of cup flavors, from layered sugar sweetness to fruit-forward complexity, bittersweet cocoa to floral and pulpy citrus. Both really nice in their own ways, and an interesting A/B taste test together. We also added a couple new Indian coffees from Karnataka. The group we purchased these lots from does an amazing job with preparation, making quite a difference in the cup. The A grade lot India Arabica Karnataka Kohinoor cups similar to some of the Tanzania coffees we've had, clean grain-like notes, barley tea, and simple syrup, while the PB selection India Karnataka Plantation Peaberry shows much in the way of fruit in both aromatics and flavors, and with a crispness in acidity. Another opportunity to taste different preparations from the same general cherry selections. Hawaii Kaanapali Dry-Process Maui Mokha also returns to the list, and recently took 1st place at the Hawaii Coffee Association's 6th annual Statewide Coffee Cupping Competition. These tiny beans are interesting indeed, a bit tough to roast in grid drums, but produce a really unique cup of coffee. And finally, we've added another coffee to our decaf list, Mexico FTO Chiapas WP Decaf. Nice and balanced, this Mexico lot has well integrated flavors of stone fruit, sweet grains, and raw cane sugar. That's all for the week. We have a couple new Kenyas, Ethiopias, and Guatemalas hitting the list next week. Have a great weekend!
- August 15, 2014: A few more coffees hit the list before heading into the weekend. It's been a great year for Ethiopian coffees, and we're listing our first coffee from the west, Ethiopia Agaro - Nano Challa Cooperative, shows cleanliness and slight effervescence. Honey sweetness, mild citrus and florals, this is a beautiful brewed cup of coffee. The landed Ethiopia Gr. 1 Dry Process Yirga Cheffe Kochore cupped fantastic and stands out as being full of ripe fruits, at their peak sweetness, rounded out by mixed berries, sugar browning flavors, high percentage cacao, and even slight florals. A great dessert pour over! And last but not least, we've added a nice Colombia from the Huila Department. Colombia TImana de Huila is a great drinking coffee with balanced profile of raw sugar, subtle fruits, and slight cinnamon spice notes. This one makes a great SO espresso option too.
- August 13, 2014: Eight lots from Nyeri county unloaded at our warehouse yesterday, and we managed to get a few of them listed on our site just in time for the Wednesday "hump". We designated these first three based off their uniqueness from one lot to the next, as well as each being exemplary for their particular individual outturn. Kenya Nyeri Tambaya AA is a beautifully complex cup, with a multitude of fruit and tea notes, and bright citrus that cuts through across the roast spectrum. Kenya Nyeri Karogoto AB shows "classic" Kenya characteristics of citric highs and deep, brooding fruits. It's such a bodied coffee too, that makes a great dual use option. And finally,Kenya Nyeri Kagumo Peaberry shows flavors of fruit juice and tart berry, and a black tea note provides a nice mouth cleansing effect. We've been anxious for our Nyeri coffees to land, and are more than pleased with the landed cup profiles. Look for round two in a couple weeks.

40 Days for Life's impact felt, resumes March 5

WASHINGTON (BP) -- The most enriching occurrence in Krysten Haga's time as director of a 40 Days for Life campaign came when she learned there was no longer a need for her to fill that role.
Near the conclusion of last fall's campaign in Lubbock, Texas, the city's only abortion clinic -- Planned Parenthood -- shut down a business that had taken the lives of more than 30,000 unborn babies, according to the 40 Days for Life national staff. The facility had not only been a site of 40 Days prayer vigils, but reportedly could not meet the state's new abortion clinic regulations.
As the local campaign director, Haga "had the honor of sending the email that announced the closing of Planned Parenthood Lubbock for good, which was by far the most rewarding experience I have ever had while being involved with 40 Days for Life," the Texas Tech University student told Baptist Press in an email interview.
When Planned Parenthood Lubbock, an affiliate of the country's largest abortion provider, stopped performing the lethal procedures, Haga recalled, "I spent that Friday afternoon [Nov. 1] emailing everybody that I could think of to share the good news, including the national team" of 40 Days.
As a result, there is no need for a prayer vigil outside an abortion facility in Lubbock when 40 Days launches its next campaign March 5.
During the campaign, tens of thousands of volunteers will gather outside abortion clinics in 251 cities spread across 11 countries, hoping for an outcome similar to the one the 40 Days team in Lubbock witnessed. The campaign, which concludes April 13, will be held not only throughout the United States but in cities in Australia, Canada, Croatia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, England, New Zealand, Russia, South Africa, Spain and Wales.
The around-the-clock prayer vigils outside abortion facilities that are at the heart of the semi-annual campaigns have provided a significant boost to the pro-life movement since the effort went national in 2007. In the ensuing six years, 40 Days -- which also consists of community outreach, prayer and fasting to end abortion -- has reported the following.
-- More than 8,200 unborn children have been spared from abortion.
-- 44 abortion facilities have closed, and 88 clinic workers have left their jobs.
-- About 600,000 people representing some 16,500 churches have participated in 522 cities across all 50 states and 20 other countries.
Haga, 24, became one of those participants four years ago when, in spite of her age, "knew it was time to stop stalling and jump head first towards something I knew God was calling me to." She served as the 40 Days director for the final four campaigns outside Lubbock's Planned Parenthood facility.
The "biggest motivation" for her pro-life work is her mother, Haga said.
"She found herself in a crisis pregnancy at the age of 16 and chose life after visiting Planned Parenthood and considering abortion," Haga told BP. "She had me the beginning of her senior year in high school. Every time I find myself out on the sidewalks counseling, I see my mom in those scared and lonely girls. I thank God that someone was there to show her Christ's love and know that I was given the opportunity to do the same."
On its website, the 40 Days national staff encourages participants during each campaign to pray not only for women considering abortion and the unborn children whose lives are threatened but, among other requests, for post-abortion women and men, and abortion center workers.
Haga and the other participants in 40 Days have always been from a diversity of religious, ethnic and age groups, but "noticeable growth" came in three areas in the fall 2013 campaign, said 40 Days National Director David Bereit. These areas, he said, were "youth and young adults, Protestant and evangelical Christians, and minorities -- most notably a dramatic increase in Hispanic participation."
A Roman Catholic, Haga is part of the largest religious group of 40 Days participants. Catholics make up an estimated 65 to 70 percent of volunteers, while Baptists constitute the second largest religious affiliation and continue to increase, Bereit said.
The most recent 40 Days international campaign was marked by continued growth demonstrated in new locations and greater numbers of participants at repeat locations, Bereit told BP in an email interview.
The fall 2013 campaign appeared to reflect "a growing sense of hope and optimism as record numbers of abortion centers are closing, as more workers are converting and going public and as more local and state pro-life laws are enacted," Bereit said.
"In addition to the reports of lives saved, more abortion workers experiencing changes of heart, record numbers of abortion centers closing, I was most encouraged by the reports and photos of children participating in this 40 Days for Life campaign who were saved from abortion during previous 40 Days for Life campaigns -- some of them are now several years old."
Along with the hopeful signs, the foremost discouragement reported to the national 40 Days staff, Bereit wrote, was volunteers asking: "Where is the
of the church of Jesus Christ?"
There remains "enormous opportunity for greater Christian participation in pro-life efforts," he said.

Lowheads '09 by RaymondD - almost 5 years ago
"This was taken at the Puget Sound festival of bands after our performance. Everyone was told to wear their Lowhead T-Shirt, as ordered from Custom Ink, and everybody followed through! Lowheads are people (actually, we're more than people, we're superhuman) who play bass clarinets or bari saxes. Custom Ink was amazing, as they did the best job I could have imagined AND got the job done quicker than what they estimated! Now we can uniformly show our obsession of food to the world!"

New England Patriots enter Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins with
a 5-0 record in AFC East games this year.
With a victory, the Patriots would finish their slate of divisional games without a loss for the second time in team history. The Patriots were a perfect 6-0 in AFC East play in 2007. New England had just one loss in division play in 1986, 1997, 2003, 2004 and 2005, 2010 and 2011.
The Patriots and Dolphins will square off for the 95th time, including three playoff games, in their 47th year as division foes and for the second time in 2012.

3. The Last Time the Patriots and Dolphins Met
The , at Sun Life Stadium for their sixth consecutive victory and earned the AFC East title for the fourth straight year. The Patriots are assured of their 12th winning season in a row.
With the Patriots holding a 20-13 lead midway through the fourth quarter, QB Tom Brady started a drive at his own 20-yard line and led a 16-play drive that took more than seven minutes off the clock. After taking a knee on a third down play, K Stephen Gostkowski kicked his third field goal of the game to pad the lead. Miami scored a field goal on the ensuing drive but the Patriots recovered an onsides kick attempt with 31 seconds to play and ran out the clock for the victory.
During the game-winning drive, RB Stevan Ridley gained 46 yards on 10 carries to help drain the clock. In the process, Ridley eclipsed 1,000 yards for the first time in his career. Miami mistakes proved pivotal in the win. A botched punt, a
roughing the punter penalty and a fumble by Miami resulted in 17 New England points. Another penalty on Miami negated a Dolphins touchdown.
Miami also had an interception returned for a touchdown that was negated due to a penalty in the first quarter. The Patriots finished with a season-low of 321 total yards and Brady went 24 of 40 for 238 yards with one touchdown.
Brady also threw his first interception in 202 pass attempts and for only the fourth time in 2012.
WR Wes Welker tied Jerry Rice with his 17th game with 10 receptions after finishing with 12 receptions for 103 yards. He set an NFL record with his 16th game with 10-plus receptions and 100 or more yards, breaking a three-way tie with Rice and Andre Johnson.
After stopping Miami on the first series, Dolphins P Brandon Fields dropped a low snap and was tackled by Matthew Slater at the Miami 12-yard line. The Patriots scored five plays later on a 2-yard run by Ridley.
Early in the second quarter, Miami S Jimmy Wilson was called for a roughing the punter penalty to give the Patriots a first down and jump started a 75-yard drive that ended with a 7-yard touchdown pass from Brady to Welker for a 14-3 lead.
DE Trevor Scott, who led the defensive unit with two sacks, forced a fumble on a 7-yard sack of Miami QB Ryan Tannehill on the Dolphins next drive, and DL Vince Wilfork recovered the ball at the Miami 25-yard line. That turnover led to a 43-yard field goal by Gostkowski for a 17-3 lead. Tannehill avenged that
mistake with 12-play, 80-yard drive that ended with his 2-yard touchdown run to make it 17-10 at the half.
After a scoreless third quarter, Gostkowski gave the Patriots a 20-10 lead after a 32-yard field goal. Miami responded with a 33-yard field goal to cut the New England lead to 20-13 with 8:28 left to play in the game.
4. Legendary Broadcasters Gil Santos and Gino Cappelletti to be Honored by Patriots
The radio tandem of Gil Santos and Gino "The Duke" Cappelletti articulated the
sights and sounds and the play-by-play action of Patriots football for 28 years.
Cappelletti announced his retirement in July and Santos announced that the 2012 season will be his last. Prior to Sunday's game, the two will be introduced at Gillette Stadium to give the fans a chance to honor Gil and Gino's legendary careers.
For most Patriots fans, there has been but one "Voice of the New England
Patriots" and it belongs to Gil Santos. Now in his 36th season, Sunday's game will be Santos' 743rd. Santos began calling games for the Boston Patriots at Fenway Park in 1966. He called the games for the Patriots for the next 14 seasons (1966-79). He returned to the booth in 1991 and has broadcast every Patriots game since then.
Cappelletti, a member of the original Boston Patriots in 1960 and the all-time
leading scorer in the American Football League's history, retired after 31 years as the team's iconic analyst. A member of the Patriots Hall of Fame since 1992, Cappelletti spent his entire 11-year career with the Patriots from 1960-70 after joining the team from the University of Minnesota. He went on to earn five all-star selections as well as the AFL's Most Valuable Player Award in 1964.
Following his playing career, Cappellletti spent seven seasons (1972-78) in the broadcast booth before returning to the sidelines as the special teams coach from 1979 through 1981 on Ron Erhardt's staff. He returned to the broadcast booth in 1988, where he remained through the 2011 season.
5. What to Watch For During Sunday's Game at Gillette Stadium
- Tom Brady will aim to guide the Patriots to their 12th win this week. Since entering the NFL in 2000, Brady's teams have reached 12 regular-season wins in six different seasons, tied with Brett Favre for second all-time, behind Peyton Manning.
- With one touchdown pass against the Dolphins, Tom Brady will extend his streak to 48 straight games with at least one touchdown pass. He is currently tied with Johnny Unitas (47) for the second longest streak, behind Drew Brees (54).
- Brady (9) needs one more game with four touchdowns, 300 yards and no interceptions to tie Drew Brees (10) for the all-time NFL lead.
- Brady (3,776) needs 12 completions to move past Vinny Testaverde (3,787) into 8th place on the NFL's all-time completion list.
- Brady (44,522) needs 90 passing yards to move past Drew Bledsoe (44,611) into 9th place on the NFL's all-time passing list.
- If Brady has one touchdown pass against Miami, he will be the first NFL player to have thrown at least one touchdown pass in all 16 games for three straight seasons.
- Since Bill Belichick became Patriots head coach in 2000, New England is 16-9 (.640) against the Miami Dolphins.
- Since 2000, the Patriots are 60-21 (.738) against AFC East opponents. The Patriots are 16-9 against the Dolphins over that span and are 18-8 against the New York Jets and 23-3 against the Buffalo Bills in that time.
- The Patriots have not been swept in their season series with a divisional opponent since 2000, when they lost both games to Miami and also to the New York Jets.
- The Patriots defense has forced a turnover in 26 straight games, dating back to 2011 and including the first 15 games of 2012. The last NFL team to have at least one takeaway in all 16 regular season games was the 2010 Atlanta Falcons.
- The Patriots have 416 first downs and need one more to break the record set by New Orleans in 2011.
- Wes Welker has caught 12 passes in each of this last two games against Miami.
- In 10 career games against the Dolphins, Wes Welker has caught 87 passes for 1,084 yards and five touchdowns, averaging 8.7 catches and 108 receiving yards per game against his former club. Those averages are the best against any team Welker has faced more than once in his career. He also has six 100-yard games against Miami with a 138-yard game at Miami (10/21/07), a 120-yard game at Miami (11/23/08), a 10-catch, 167-yard game in 2009 at Miami (12/06/09), eight receptions for 160 yards, including a 99-yard touchdown at Miami (9/12) in the 2011 season-opener, 12 receptions for 138 yards vs. Miami (12/24/11) and 12 receptions for 103 yards in the first 2012 meeting. Welker has three 100-yard games each against Buffalo and the New York Jets.
- Welker needs one reception to extend his streak to 93 straight regular season games with at least one reception as a member of the Patriots to extend his franchise record. Welker has an overall streak of 109 straight
regular-season games with at least one reception, including his time with the Miami Dolphins.
- Stephen Gostkowski (7-of-10) needs one more 50-yard field goal to tie Adam Vinatieri (8-of-17) for most 50-yard field goals in Patriots history.
- Gostkowski has two 50-yarders so far in 2012 and can become the first Patriots player with three 50-yard field goals in a single season.
- Gostkowski has 149 points in 2012 and needs seven points to break Gino Cappelletti's single-season record of 155 points set in 1964.
- Brandon Lloyd (902) needs 98 receiving yards against Miami to become the 10th Patriots player to have a 1,000-yard receiving season.
- With 10 tackles, Jerod Mayo will have his 11th 10-plus tackle game of the season. He had his 10th 10-tackle game vs. San Francisco (12/16) to match the career-high 10 10-tackle games he had in 2010.
- Rob Ninkovich has a team-leading five forced fumbles. If he has one more forced fumble, he will break a tie with Mike Vrabel (five in 2007) for the most forced fumbles for a Patriots player within the last 20 years.
- Stevan Ridley (1,189) needs 11 yards to become the fifth Patriots running back to reach 1,200 yards in a season.

The Statistical Abstract files are distributed by the US Census Department as Microsoft Excel files. These files have data mixed with notes and references, multiple tables per sheet, and, worst of all, the table headers are not easily matched to their rows and columns.

WALLA WALLA, Wash. - Lizzy Washburn, a cornerstone of the Whitman College women's basketball team for the past three seasons, has been named to ESPN The Magazine's Academic All-District First Team.
Washburn, a 5-foot-9 senior forward, is one of five players to earn first-team honors for women's basketball in the College Division of District VIII. The district includes all NCAA Div. II/Div. III and NAIA schools in the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Alaska, Hawaii, California, Utah, Nevada and Arizona, as well as British Columbia.
Players on All-District First Teams from eight College Division districts around nation are now eligible for election to the Academic All-America women's basketball team. That voting takes place next week.
Washburn and Pacific's Dee Dee Arnall are the only Northwest Conference players to earn district first-team honors. Linfield's Casey Stepan and Whitworth's Danielle Wegman made the second team.
The College Sports Information Directors of America (Co-SIDA) administers the Academic All-America program, which is in its 55th year and has honored more than 14,000 students at all levels for all recognized NCAA sports.
Washburn, who played her prep ball at Mundelein (Ill.) High School, earned Academic All-District second-team honors a year ago. She is majoring in mathematics at Whitman with a minor in education. She has a cumulative grade point average of 3.85 on a 4.0 scale.
Despite mid-season elbow surgery, Washburn leads Whitman in scoring and rebounding, averaging 12.8 points and 7.1 rebounds. She tops the NWC in offensive rebounding, averaging 3.32 per game, and ranks among the league leaders in scoring, rebounding, shooting percentage, steals and blocked shots.
Washburn has three double-doubles on the season. She missed six others by one or two rebounds, or in one game, by two points. She matched her career-high in scoring with 28 points in a victory over Willamette in January.
With four games remaining in the regular season, Washburn has amassed 925 points and ranks 12th on the Whitman career scoring list for women's basketball. She also has 457 rebounds, 154 assists and 145 steals.
Washburn was named to All-NWC Second Team a year ago, when she led Whitman in scoring and rebounding despite a debilitating staph infection in one of her elbows. She has been a starter since her sophomore season, when she helped Whitman win a share of the NWC championship.
Washburn has volunteered for four years in the Whitman Mentor program, assisting youth in local schools. She is completing her senior mathematics project on research and analysis of the Lanczos Derivative, named for Cornelius Lanczos, a 20th-century Hungarian mathematician and physicist who once served as an assistant to Albert Einstein.
Washburn is the daughter of Dan and Sandy Washburn of Mundelein, Ill.

Serious Stages continues its successful relationship with the Hampton Court Palace Festival, once again supplying the main stage for the 2006 summer entertainment and music program. This sees a host of world class artists as diverse as Kiri Te Kanawa, Eric Clapton, Glyndebourne Touring Opera and Jools Holland and His Rhythm and Blues Orchestra tread its boards.
Serious has supplied the stage – including decking and access ramp - and roof for this event since the Festival began 13 years ago with IMG as clients and Keith Morris as production manager, and has designed a bespoke Flatroof structure tailored exactly to fit the Base Court area deep in the heart of the Palace grounds. This is scenically dressed to compliment the surrounding architecture, brickwork and colouring
The flat roofed stage is built from a combination of MaxiBeam trussing for the box at the top and GS trussing for the legs, and is a self climbing structure that pulls itself up to height via 6 electric chain hoists – four for the main stage and two for the wings.
Width is 24 metres including the wings, with 12 metres of depth, and the roof is slightly raked, giving 11 metres headroom at the front of stage and 10 at the rear, with a stage height of 1.2 metres. Each point will take a 2 tonnes load, gibing a total distributed load bearing of 12 tonnes. Overhead are four trusses for lighting positions.
It's been designed as a slightly unusual 'kite' shape to fit precisely into the courtyard space, with the upstage corners sliced off diagonally. This year Serious also had a new set of made-to-measure roof covers made.
Serious also constructed the front of house platform, situated behind the seating stands with decking on three levels for sound, lighting and follow spots. This measures 14m high and is made from Kwikform scaffolding.
The Serious site crew of six including a rigger was led by Paul Piper and Leo Barcala – also a veteran of several Hampton Court Palace Festivals. It took them four days to complete the get in, and the primary challenge was getting it positioned exactly in the right place! This is a crucial operation - it's a tight fit, with the stage left rear wing within centimetres of one of the Palace towers, and even couple of centimetres out could mean losing a row of seats.
Once erected, the stage was scenically dressed by AGM One. Lighting equipment is being supplied by PRG, sound by Wigwam and seating by Arena.

Vehicles with Incentives & Rebates
The 2014 Hyundai Tucson adds direct-injection technology to its two engine choices. New standard features include Bluetooth, tilt/telescopic steering column and reclining rear seats. SE trims get a 4.3-inch LCD touch-screen radio with rearview camera, while Limited trims receive Blue Link telematics.
The Hyundai Tucson compact crossover SUV for 2014 stacks up admirably when compared to such well-established names as the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Ford Escape. To compete, Hyundai equips the Tucson with cutting-edge engine technology, stand-out styling and a long list of standard and available equipment. It does all this with an impressively competitive window sticker and an unrivaled 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty. You can choose front-wheel drive (FWD) or opt for a part-time all-wheel-drive (AWD) system. Strong resale values also help make the Tucson a viable option, but its smaller cargo area and somewhat firm ride might be two areas worth exploring before you sign on the dotted line.

Here are some whispers we've heard recently from around the NFC South:
• A broken foot landed Buccaneers ORG Davin Joseph, arguably the team's best offensive lineman, on injured reserve after Week 12. While his replacement may not be as effective as a run blocker, he's drawing high praise from teammates. The versatile Jeremy Zuttah will take over at right guard after having started at center and left guard earlier this season, and C Jeff Faine recently said Zuttah might be the Bucs' MVP.
• Panthers head coach John Fox demoted CB Chris Gamble in Week 12, and Fox said that his decision had only to do with Gamble's performance. Gamble later admitted that he skipped a practice the Wednesday before that game because of a family-related issue, but regardless of what caused him to get benched, it's clear that he and Fox are not seeing eye-to-eye. Fox is in his contract year and on his way out of Charlotte, however, and one source said there is no doubt Gamble, who has four years left on his contract, will still be with the Panthers in 2011.
• Falcons rookie SLB Sean Weatherspoon's knee is still not 100 percent, and it appears he'll be playing a situational role until the team feels as though he's a better option in the base defense than Stephen Nicholas. The Falcons have continued to start Nicholas at strong-side linebacker, even though Weatherspoon has played in each of the last two games after missing four straight contests with a knee injury. Weatherspoon started the first four games in which he played on the strong side.
• Drew Brees admitted that it was difficult for the Saints to re-establish their identity this season after winning the Super Bowl, but New Orleans appears to be back on track after struggling early on. "We just had to kind of find our groove and our rhythm and establish that identity again," Brees said. "A part of that was, 'Let's stop comparing ourselves with last year's team.' "

TSA's recently announced changes to its Prohibited Items list, including allowing small pocket knives on aircraft, has been temporarily delayed. For more information, visit tsa.gov.
We know, you've probably heard it before, but just in case you need a reminder: you're allowed one carry-on bag and one personal item at no extra charge. Just make sure they fit into the overhead bin or under the seat in front of you. Cram sessions are not pretty — and they slow things down.
Approved Personal Items
Additional Approved Items
The following items do not count as personal items (they're freebies):
It won't fit. Three words you don't want to hear when trying to board. To avoid delays and possible checked bag fees, follow these size requirements:
Passengers traveling on Delta Connection flights, and only those flights with fifty (50) seats or less, are only permitted to carry personal items on board the aircraft due to limited overhead space. Personal items must be able to fit securely under the seat in front of the passenger. All carry-on bags within Delta's size restrictions will be gate checked, free of charge, during the boarding process and returned upon deplaning. Please ensure that a pink Gate Claim/Planeside tag is securely attached to the carry-on item. Assistive devices are not subject to this restriction.
If you need information about items such as knitting needles or razors, please consult the TSA website.

Natively, the 100L is very slightly sharper in the center but definitely softer away from the center, compared to the 70-200 II at 200mm.
See Measurements>resolution>field maps
The 100L has more resolution in any part of the frame at any aperture than the 70-200 II at any length, no?
See what you did - you went and opened the DxO can of worms... Try comparing their measurements of the 70-200 II with their measurements of the 70-200/2.8 IS MkI - the MkI performs better in their tests. In their tests, and no one else's. Personally, I think they got a bad copy of the 70-200 II. My 70-200 II is slightly sharper away from the center than the 100L, that's true for the tests on TDP (although there really close) and also on photozone.de (compare 70-200 II vs. 100L).
