A woman has spent nearly her entire pregnancy battling her employer over providing medical coverage to her because her employer claimed her pregnancy was a pre-existing condition.
The federal program, Americorps, claimed it was exempt from laws requiring that employers not deny coverage to pregnant employers on the grounds of pre-existing conditions.
Savanna Kraft receives a $800 a month stipend from Americorps. When she took the position, she did not know that she was pregnant. Her doctors later estimated her baby was conceived before her benefits kicked in.
As a result, the taxpayer-funded program refused to provide coverage to her and her unborn baby.
Kraft and fiance Russell Dempsey began researching and found the Department of Labor said pregnancies are protected even if a woman had no prior coverage before enrolling in her employer's plan.
But they were told by labor officials that government-funded programs aren't covered by the 1996 federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. There was also a question about whether her not having a job in the three months before joining Americorps affected her coverage.
KCTV5 repeatedly tried to reach Americorps officials over several days this week. They did not answer KCTV5's questions but relented and authorized their insurance company to cover about $60,000 in medical bills incurred by Kraft during her pregnancy.
Dempsey and Kraft agreed that taking their fight public made a difference.
"If we wouldn't have made noise, they would have gotten out of the $60,000 in medical coverage they were supposed to cover," Russell said.
Kraft's medical bills were so high because she suffered a deep vein thrombosis and had to stay in the hospital for a week.

The name Piedmont comes from medieval Latin Pedemontium, i. e. "ad pedem montium", meaning "at the foot of the mountains": Piedmont, whose capital is Turin, is surrounded on three sides by the Alps, including Monviso, where Po river rises, and Monte Rosa. It borders France, Switzerland and the Italian regions of Aosta Valley, Lombardy, Liguria and Emilia Romagna.
Its history was linked for centuries to Savoy dynasty: since 1046 Piedmont was part of County of Savoy, raised to Duchy of Savoy in 1416, evolved in the eighteenth century into the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia. The role of Piedmont for Italy's unification is comparable to the role of Prussia for Germany and his army was the engine of the unification process, ended with the creation of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861. The presence of Savoy in its territory bequeathed a large number of castles and residences.
Lowland Piedmont is a fertile agricultural region, producing wheat, rice and maize and is one of the great winegrowing areas in Italy. The region contains major industrial centres: FIAT automobile plants in Turin, Ferrero's chocolate factories in Alba, tissue and silk manufactories in Biella, in Ivrea Olivetti was an important technology center, publishing in Turin and Novara.

The Planet of Coppelius
November 4, 2012
The inhabitants of planet Coppelius chronically lose all colour and they all turn white.

The Planet of Cublix
October 7, 2012
As The Little Prince sets foot on this planet, he lands on a rocky promontory smothered by fog, which wreaks havoc with the inhabitants' life - the Cublix - isolated on their high rock. During his investigation, the Little Prince finds out that it's all the blacksmith's fault. He has become paranoid, since his jewelry collection (which he makes in his forge) went missing. He is convinced that the Cublix stole his jewels. In order to protect himself, he works his forge non-stop, making locks and padlocks day in, day out. The smoke from his forge chokes the Cublix's village. The Little Prince realizes the blacksmith assistant is to blame. He attempted to copy his master's jewels, and unwittingly melted them.

September 2, 2012
On Khagle's planet, every 122 days, Khagle (vaguely similar to Santa Claus) hands wishaplants' seeds out to children and inhabitants. The wishaplants grow into trees which give presents to children.

BROKEN ARROW, Okla. (AP) - The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says a crash on the Muskogee Turnpike left one woman dead and five people injured, including three children who are in critical condition.
Authorities say the crash happened Wednesday afternoon when 30-year-old Tiffany Borovetz lost control of her vehicle. A preliminary report says Borovetz' vehicle flipped six times before coming to a rest.
The highway patrol says Borovetz was killed and her five passengers were injured. 4 of the passengers - including a 7-year-old, a 9-year-old, a 13-year-old and a 23-year-old - are in critical condition at a Tulsa hospital. The fifth passenger, a 42-year-old woman, is in stable condition.
Authorities say several of the passengers were ejected from the vehicle and others were pinned in the wreckage until responders from Broken Arrow and Coweta arrived.

acknowledgement from the school board when they file a notice of intent, which
they use to obtain teacher discounts at various stores and events. When a parent
called to ask when the acknowledgements would be sent out, she was informed that
the county is reviewing the curriculum of every homeschooler. There is no word
yet on when the county expects to complete its homeschool curriculum review.

A: A light copper colored beer with good clarity and little head.
S: Lots and f English malt with caramel dominating backed by biscuit and toast. The is a moderate earthy hops aroma with a light orange aroma from the yeast.
T: The taste matches the noise with a decent hops balance and a fairly strong malt character. The balance is slightly towards the bitter. The hops are earthy with a. Slight floral hint. The fermentation adds some orange and slight citrus. The finish is off dry and the aftertaste is a moderately lingering bitterness.
M: medium full bodied with moderate carbonation.
O: a pretty good English IPA with a good malt hops balance. I wouldn't hunt this one down but if you can't find a big bitter American IPA this will do well.

Shared with two friends on a picnic rug, New Year's Eve 2011/12.
Pours a burnished amber colour with steady bead feeding off-white fluffy head, with nice sticky lace and good retention. Looks nice.
Smells a bit fruity and sweet. Brown sugar is noticeable, with pineapple, touch of banana and pear. Hint of clove at the back; all smells a bit sweet, maybe aged badly? Needs more tang to cut through.
Taste is similar with lots of fruit upfront: caramelised pineapple, pear and rockmelon that gets some tang and spice midway, resiny and woody bitterness that lasts to the finish. A bit sharp late, with a bit of acid pull and earthy, aniseedy spice late. OK but a bit off-kilter.
Frothy and mildly sticky feel. Not bad.
A bit off-balance in key parts, but pleasant enough drinking.

Pours dark amber with a small fading head.
Nose shows caramel, toffee and butterscotch with soft spicy and floral hops underneath. Very malty. Old bottle perhaps? Still well within BB....
Similar flavours, very malty, lots of toffee and honey. Once again, only a hint of spicy hops. Too sweet, practically no bitterness.
Could use more carbonation.
Not a bad beer, but nothing like an IPA.... No hops, no bitterness.

Beautiful copper coloured amber with limited head and carbonation. Minimal aroma, but a hint of caramelized malts. The flavour is more pronounced, with rich caramel, grains and a pleasantly dry finish.
I would call this a decent session beer if it weren't for the APA level 6.5%. As it is, it will remain an occasional malty treat.

I tried this beer on May 13, 2011 at "Smokeless Joe" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a trancluscent gold colour with orange hues. and a thin off-white head. The aroma was pine, weak citrus, and grainy malts. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour is slighty sweet, malty, with citrus and toffee. The finish is bitter.

Brilliant orange colour capped by off-white foam that doesn't stick around, or stick to the walls of my glass. Delicate wildflower hop aroma with a hint of honey. Perhaps too delicate though - you really have to work to pick it up. Lovely malt flavour shows toast and honey, there's a nice orange flavour that I'm not sure is ester or hop in nature, but leafy bitterness is definately of the humulus variety. There's a light butteriness to it that enhances the flavour rather than detracting from it. Medium bodied with very low carbonation. Feels soft, creamy, and smooth in the mouth. This is a decent and tasty beer that could be very good if the aroma were a little more forward.

Bottle courtesy of northyorksammy. Thanks!
Nice clarity, medium amber/orange colour with a short, off-white cap that showed great head retention. A fair amount of lacing clung to the glass too, at least for the first half glass. Light aroma, notes of grassy and herbal hops, a bit of citrus, caramel and toasted malts, very English in character and nicely balanced. The flavour was a little lackluster and muted in character, nothing really wrong with it though. A bit of malt sweetness, mild bitterness and hops, light citrus and grass with a hint of spice and alcohol in the finish. The texture was alright, a bit heavier than expected, but the low carbonation made for an easy drinking beer.

60cL/600ml bottle poured into a nonic pint glass...
A - The colour is sort of in between what you would expect from an English IPA and its American counterpart. It's of a light copper colour, which makes it a little darker than an American IPA and a little paler than a regular IPA.
Pretty good head retention and some lacing.
S - Grassy and earthy hops dominate the nose. Hints of citrus, as well as bread, caramel, and flowers. Quite interesting!
T - The dry-hopping used in brewing this beer really give it a solid hop bite up front. This provides for a unique experience of tasting a hoppy, yet very English-styled ale! Grass, lemon, grapefruit, apricot, honey, and caramel are among the most prominent taste sensations I get. There is a very pleasant and moderate sweetness, which comes hand in hand with the bitterness. The finish is slightly dry and bitter, with lingering citrus and bread notes. Very balanced.
M - Light-to-medium in body. No hint of alcohol. I liked the fact that this beer is not very dry like many IPA's. Quite lively at first, with a sparkling texture to it.
O - Overall, the best word to describe this beer would be "interesting". This surely is not your ordinary English-style IPA! The generous amount of hops + the dry-hopping really does make a difference!
This beer drinks well for an IPA. It's slightly-lighter-than-average body and lack of extreme dryness provide for a very enjoyable experience. The one bottle I had disappeared in no time!

Clarity may still be perfectly intact, but this heavily bronzed colour looks like it's in need of a good shine. Haze has begun to set in and all but the most copper-y highlights have been squashed by the beer's dim and deeply tan complexion. Its head can't hold water - literally, the tiny bubbles and loose foam succumb to the liquid without a fight.
It may have been brewed in Denmark, but this pale ale smells British-esque. Its water minerals are stark and pointed, plainly perceptible given the modest, honey-like aromatics of the malt. Its pithy, grassy hop profile, however, is more prevalent than most English brewers could imagine. It smells quite fragrantly of juniper, spruce, lychee and bitter citrus.
Despite its North American leanings with the hop choices, Bombay Pale Ale is definitely done more in the traditional European vein. The Marris Otter malt smacks partly of toffee, partly of cardboard; its toasty, bready quality is an ideal match for the sharp minerals in the water, the fruity ale yeast esters and drying, floral leafiness with which it's laced.
That bitterness is tempered not only by the hops' own breezy citrus character, but also by a gloppy honey sweetness and crystal-sharp minerals. The resulting texture manages brief effervescence before giving out to a velvety aftertaste of doughy malt and spruce-y hop greasiness. The extra alcohol is not noticed, although the beer is fairly heavy.
If I were Nørrebro Bryghus I wouldn't bother exporting Bombay Pale Ale for two simple reasons: 1) how well the beer holds up to voyage overseas is questionable; and 2) there's no way the price point will come in at under $7 a bottle, which is a little steep considering there are equal (and better) domestic versions available for much cheaper.
That being said, I can see why the brewery is so eager to share this widely appealing, highly agreeable offering. It is an honored rendition of the classic British pale ales with a little extra accenting. A real winner. But again, realistically, unless I lived in or around Copenhagen, I couldn't see drinking much of it. There's too many local alternatives.

LCBO acquisition. Pours light lagerish colour and its lacey. Neutral aromas. Easy smooth mouthfeel, a little bitter this would be more refreshing on a hot summer day. Understated grassy bitterness. An English style "india pale ale". Boozy finish. Don't expect lots of hop flavour.

Bottle: Poured a hazy bright orangey color ale with a large foamy head with great retention and some good lacing. Aroma of light bitter malt with nice lightly sweet caramel malt notes. Taste is very nice and easily quaffable with great notes of lightly sweet caramel malt with earthy and bitter hops which provide a nice balance. Body is quite full with great carbonation. Very well brewed and easily drinkable.

Super-duper carbonation. Crammed with tiny bubbles and a quckly vanishing head. a lovely amber colour. Nice scent. Sandalwood, citrus, lot's of sandalwood. A bit artificial smelling in that but pleasant still. Tastes as it smells. Smooth. Not really pale ale. I guess the incense dipped flavour is the Bombay part. It's ok but way over-priced for what it is. nice label but a one time date. Sorry girl.

A: a bright orange colour with a quickly dissipating head.
S: A floral, citrus and grassy smell brought on by the hops. Not quite the power of an APA or IIPA but the hops are prominent.
T: Mildly bitter from the hops, reminiscent of grapefruit. Slightly sweet but the flavour is dominated by very mild hops.
M: Smooth and well carbonated.
D: A good English IPA.

RALEIGH — There's a miniature economy at the edge of the N.C. State Fair. Each day, tens of thousands of cars pull onto the streets around the bright lights, where their drivers are confronted by hordes of pedestrians, parking attendants with airport-style beacons, homeowners with spots to rent, and one college-age guy busking with a baritone ukulele.
In recent years, a few folks on tricycles have found another way to make a profit among this madness. And with some visitors parking blocks upon blocks away, the pedal-powered rickshaw has proved its worth.
"You've got to consider: The fair is 11 days, and attendance on some of those days is above 100,000. Everybody has to leave and arrive," said Dylan Selinger, a manager for Crank Arm Rickshaw, who is working the fair for a third year. Raleigh Rickshaw Co., a competitor, has worked the fair for four years.
The companies now dispatch about 20 three-wheel cycles to shuttle people to and from the fair. Both companies are registered vendors and work for tips only. Their riders stay in touch by phone or walkie-talkie, scoping out the scene and calling for backup when needed.
Riders tend to congregate at the fair's exits, eyeing the exodus for likely clients.
"Who needs a ride to the car? The last ride's the best one," said Blair Aitken, 24, riding one afternoon this week.
The key, according to Rashon Dickason, is humor and a sharp eye. "If they look, they have to be thinking about it," said Dickason, 23.
Bruce Berry and his daughter Millar, 5, didn't need any advertising. Father, daughter and giant Scooby-Doo doll made straight for a trio of primary-color rickshaws as they left through Gate 8.
"She said her legs were tired, so it was this or a piggy-back ride," said Berry, who lives in Rocky Mount.
Typical customers include older folks running low on stamina, families with kids in tow, and young couples looking for a chance to cuddle.
"We – are so – lazy!" exclaimed two teenage girls as their ride pedaled slowly toward Trinity Road.
The bikes, complete with carriage-style seats, weigh close to 200 pounds empty, and with their low gearing, they can take a few seconds to accelerate past walking speed.
Once they're moving, though, they zip past the weary. The cyclists will travel as far as necessary; some rode the rickshaws about six miles from their usual downtown turf at the start of the fair. On the busiest days, cyclists reported, they may take passengers to cars as far as two miles away.
The service was a welcome sight for Tracy Cypher, a former Cary resident visiting with a friend's daughter. "I just had knee-replacement surgery, otherwise I would have walked," Cypher said. "It was fun, friendly. It was great."
The cycles tend to run from midmorning until midnight or longer, and individual riders can work long shifts. How many miles do they pedal?
"There's no telling," said Ryan Yancey, 24, of Raleigh Rickshaw. But he has definitely noticed, he said, a significant upsizing of his leg muscles since he started driving rickshaws.
Typically the rickshaw drivers leave tipping up to their passengers, though they do remind folks that the voluntary payments are their only source of income. For some it's a full-time job, while others are students or work other gigs.
"It's a full-time part-time job," said Selinger, who also works at Crank Arm's brewery. His rickshaw riders include a physician assistant and a civil engineer. Donald Mertrud, owner of Raleigh Rickshaw, reports a quarter of his riders are students, but also include attorneys and architects who like the exercise and socialization.
The companies also bring in revenue through sponsor advertising. For the longest rides, some cyclists will suggest a tip before they take off.
Some people, however, are just immune to the temptations, no matter how well they're advertised. Candy Labau, 69, eyed the trio of cyclists and turned to her husband. "Do you want to?" she asked him.
No, no, Clay Labau, 69, shook his head. They'd already paid $20 for Polish sausage and drinks, $8 for ice cream, $12 for cookies and milk and 50 cents for a pickle.
"If you pay for everything they offer, you'd go broke," Candy Labau said as they walked toward their car, through the endless rows of free parking at Carter-Finley Stadium.
"I've got to walk anyway – that's what I've got two legs for," her husband said as they finished their five-hour fair day and headed home to Rocky Mount.
Whether walking or riding, those last few minutes of the fair – kids nodding off, prizes stowed – are an inevitable part of the experience. As Sally Harris and her grandson toted a frozen turkey and a goldfish down Trinity Road, she told him about her first few years at the fair in the 1960s, when she and the other Dorothea Dix psychiatric hospital nurses would bring female patients to the big event.
In 2013, after a few busy hours, the exit was a chance for some quiet family reminiscing.

When one walks into a boxing gym, see's the blood stained canvas of a boxing ring, smells the saturated scenting of old leather and sweat, start a hard rigerours schedule of pushing your body to its very last limit, then ultimately lacing the gloves up for the first time and feeling a deliberate series of punched punishing the head and body, one has to wonder why anyone would choose to box as a career. I have always been firm on the belief that boxing is a sport that needs to be chosen. I couldnt simply bring my son into the gym and make him fight. It is a sport he has to choose. But why would he? Whats the motivation to make him sacrifice time and body to something that can ruin his physical and mental health?
One fighter watches HBO, Showtime, or Espn and says "hey, I wanna be that guy". "I wanna hold that belt high and be the champion of the world". Or is it "Damn, that dude is paid, I want all that, I want that house them cars, the celebrity status".. In short, to each his own. Every champion has had to sacrifice at one point, but Im starting to see an entire new trend in boxing. There are few who really want that strap, and would rather have the name and notoriety. I lets take a recent example: Miguel Cotto, a fighter who is likey on the downhill side of his career even though he fought a valiant fight with Floyed, takes a risky fight in undefeated Austin Trout. A fight he may likey lose depending on his mental state. But heres a guy who has a name and can wait on a Canelo, or what have you to make a huge payday but instead takes a fight with a young hungry, proven champion...and for what? ..Cotto want that belt. Cotto want to be the best and still feels he can...after war after war he chooses this guy? Thats admirable imo.
One the other hand we have a fighter like lets say as previosly mentioned Canelo. Now Im not saying he isnt a tremendous fighter with exceptional talent. Im not even saying this is his fault, perhaps his promoters are doing a great job. We can input many more names in this slot. Canelo's name is becoming household. But imo he's being rushed into stardom and hasnt proved it against anyone (other than an aged Mosely). Some fighters get a little exposure and think they are the pinnacle of the sport. Canelo is good, damn good, but he hasnt arrived yet.
If you ask me I wanna be a champion. Tested, proven, and still hungry. I wanna be an Andre Ward, or a Bernard Hopkins. An underdog, whos legacy is more important than a big paycheck. Sure every fighter wants to cash out at some point. But while your in your prime I fell they should make prime moves. Wipe out your division or die trying.
If you were a fighter, as some here are, what would be your motivation?

for me it was simply being better than my opponent, I wanted to be the best ever, whenever I lost I hated it to no ends, because in the end of the day when I got into that ring in my mind nobody was better than me. I trained hard and fought hard so why should they of been better, while am not a fan of Miguel Cotto's career, as a man you cannot deny his hunger and pride.

Speaking of pop warner who plays Florida Atlantic Troy and Louisiana Monroe?Colt Brennan deserves the Heisman!!
This is not a name call you define yourself pretty much with your question! You have no crediblity when you pick totally arbitrary SOS for your determination.Perception should not determine champions... End of story! I do agree that you should mention UF's beating of FSU after all what other team of note did they beat?3 losses are 3 losses.. A guess by UF's standards that should be considered successful?
that's honestly the worst attempt at smack talk i have ever seen....

FT—France poised to raise retirement age
Expectations are growing that France is set to remove the right to retire at 60, as it embarks on a contentious reform of its debt-laden pension system and brings public finances back into line.
Christian Estrosi, industry minister, said on Sunday the government was "leaning towards an increase in the [retirement] age" in its talks with unions and employers' federations, despite denials from cabinet ministers over the weekend of a decision being taken.
Although there has been much speculation that France's legal retirement age of 60 – one of the lowest in Europe – would be abandoned, Mr Estrosi's comments on national radio are the clearest statement yet of government intentions.

Fashion YOUR District
The City of LA wants to hear from you: what would you like to see improved in the downtown Los Angeles Fashion District?
An 18-month-long planning process dubbed the "Design for Development" kicked off last month and a new site and Facebook page have launched to share news and collect feedback. The LA Fashion District is the largest in the nation at more than 100 square blocks. It operates its own Business Improvement District, meaning the property owners reach deeper into their pockets to boost essential services. The goal? To keep the area clean, safe, to promote its scope of offerings, and to and make it more attractive to retailers, wholesalers, shoppers and a growing community of residents. It also publishes a market week calendar, and a periodically refreshed list of brands available to wholesale buyers in the district.
Now is the time to join the conversation, share your thoughts, and share with friends. "Like" the Facebook page, follow the news blog and provide your feedback for a better LA Fashion District. You don't need to be an Angeleno to have an opinion: the district serves buyers and sellers from all over the world including YOU.
Need better public transportation? Think it really needs a fresh new look? Wish there was a gateway registration center or concierge service to help you find stuff? Hoping for more green space or late night action? Eager to get some building or zoning codes changed? Desperately seeking a solid list of samplemakers? Now is the time and here is the place to make your helpful suggestions.

'The Amazing Race' Recap: Taking the Arctic Plunge

The Amazing Race
rolled on last week to Lisbon, Portugal, with nine teams still in the competition. The first team to arrive at the Pit Stop was Nicole and Travis, followed by Jason and Amy in second place. Nicky and Kim were the third team to arrive.
In what can only be described as an epic amount of bad luck, Chester and Ephraim were actually met at the Lisbon airport by host Phil Keoghan. This was a bad sign, and they were eliminated from
The Amazing Race
. Chester and Ephraim's journey was something out of many a traveler's worst nightmare.
Who will take the lead in this leg of
The Amazing Race
? Let's find out!
The Amazing Race
Deleted Scenes: Braiding a Beard, Alliances and More >>>
Leaving on a Jet Plane
The teams depart from Castelo Dos Mouros in Portugal on the way to their next destination -- Svolvaer, Norway. Everyone is super excited about going to the Arctic Circle. (Well, not really.) Jason and Amy bonded with Nicole and Travis on the last leg of the race. This quartet finds out that there is only one flight leaving for Norway the next morning, and all teams are on it.
Once their flight lands, all the teams must board a ferry to Svolvaer. The next clue is in the ferry terminal. We also find out that Timothy and Marie (Reebs) are not going to part with their second Express Pass until the end of the fifth leg. There is also a lengthy list of who will not be receiving the wondrous gift of an Express Pass, including Leo and Jamal (the Afghanimals) and Ally and Ashley.
Something is Fishy
The Detour is comprised of two challenges: "Hang Your Heads" and "Hammer of the Cods." In the "Hang Your Heads" challenge, teams must string together six bundles, each comprised of 10 fish heads, and then hang them on a drying rack. In "Hammer of the Cods," teams must remove 15 pairs of cod from tall drying racks and then pound them with a huge wooden hammer to make one kilo of fish jerky. Sounds appetizing!
Teams are a bit thrown off by having the sun shining brightly at nearly midnight. Timothy and Reebs arrive first and start the "Heads" challenge. Brandon and Adam arrive next and get to work. The rest of the teams are scrambling for taxis.
Jason and Amy tell Timothy and Reebs that they are stringing the wrong number of fish heads. Meanwhile, Ally and Ashley are saddened by the sight of baby fish heads. Once again, who thinks of these activities?
How Much Does a Cod Weigh?
Tim and Danny choose "Hammer of the Cods" since no one else is doing that challenge, and they are joined by Nicky and Kim. While one team member climbs up a structure, the other team member has to stand and wait, holding bundles of cod slung around their neck and arms.
On the way to the drying racks, Leo and Jamal's wheel barrel gets a flat tire. They eventually overturn the fish.
No Expression of Help
Timothy and Reebs hang up their fish heads but are told that it is not correct. Brandon and Adam notice that one of the log drying racks has a flag on it and hang their fish there. Jason and Amy are the first to gain the next clue. So where will the teams go next? They are to take a high speed boat to the fishing village of Henningsvaer, Norway.
Brandon and Adam's bundle of fish heads are given the thumbs up, and they refuse Reebs' plea for help when she mentions she has an Express Pass. As the bearded friends leave Reebs in the dust, she asks Timothy why this keeps happening to them, because she is "nice to everyone." Hilarious!
The Amazing Race
Week 3 U-Turn Award: Fly the Unfriendly Skies >>>
Hammer Time
Jason and Amy pass Nicole and Travis while heading up to the drying racks, and tell them to look for a log with a flag at the end. When Nicole and Travis are hanging their fish heads, Reebs goes over to see if she can figure out what she is doing wrong. The exes finally hang it on the correct rack, but is Reebs too tired to trash talk her opponents? No way! As Timothy and Reebs pass Leo and Jamal and their "race wives," Reebs yells, "Ice and Afghanimals, together forever!"
Back at the "Hammer of the Cods" site, Tim and Danny get ready to smash the cod. Nicky and Kim are far behind the other teams as they struggle to carry the fish to the facility. Tim and Danny finish their task just as the girls arrive.
Take the Plunge
The high speed boat trip has Brandon and Adam reflecting on how they are in Viking territory, where they belong. They are the first to find the next clue, which is a Road Block. This challenge requires one team member to take a leap off the Henningsvaer Bridge, dangle from a rope and then splash down into the icy water and swim to their next clue.
The clue reveals that teams must now go back to shore, choose a Ford Ranger truck and pull a boulder on a sled. Once the boulder has moved, the next clue will be revealed, along with a bag of Viking coins that they need for later on in the race.
Missing the Clue
While Timothy jumps, Reebs second guesses his athletic abilities from the sidelines. Brandon and Adam are the first to reach the trucks and find the next clue. Other teams quickly converge on the boulder area. It looks like one team takes the coins, but not the clue. Ally and Ashley face an unwelcome surprise because the truck is a stick shift, but are pleasantly surprised when Tim and Danny help them out.
The Pit Stop
The Viking Longhouse is the Pit Stop for this leg of
The Amazing Race.
Brandon and Adam arrive first to the mat, and are greeted by Phil Keoghan and a bunch of feasting Vikings. As if being invited to a rowdy Nordic feast isn't sweet enough, they also win $5,000 each. Nice job! Phil also has some other news -- they are still racing!
Timothy and Reebs meet up with Nicole and Travis on the road, and Timothy and Reebs are desperate. Nicole uses this to her advantage and says that she will tell them the location if they give her the Express Pass. Reebs hesitates, and Nicole says that she is leaving.
No one is eliminated in this episode, and everyone keeps on racing. I don't know about you, but I am exhausted just watching this leg!

Thread: Media.. and the Vikes
Media.. and the Vikes
Over the years of loving the Vikes and watching ESPN to stay updated sense I don't live in the Minnesota stay, I have noticed some ripping on the Vikes by TV media.
Last year when it came down to the Redskins on determining wether we go to the playoffs (win, we go. Lose, hope for help). I believe it was NFL Live, they were discussing that topic. As they were talking, they decided to break out the infamous Cardinals game. One of the people their said, "Hmm.. seems like I have seen something like this before..." looking up with a wondering face and a sly smirk. As he did, it cut to a "cartoon bubble" and showed the last second catch by the Cards to kill our playoff hopes. After that great cut to see that play, it showed them absoulutely loving it and literally LAUGHING THEIR A$$ES OFF!
There have been many more incidents to add to this. The reason I bring this up is the recent Tice ripping in newspapers and the MNF top 36 moments (check out the forum where it talks about it).
Whenever we do something good, it's a fluke, or luck. We do something bad, the media is everywhere and it's a big joke.[size=11pt]"The only thing better than food & football is maybe Brett Favre."

Re: Media.. and the Vikes
face it. the vikings are an easy team to make fun of. if we want the media to stop making fun of the vikings, we need to hope our team stops fucking up and stop giving everyone material."There is good and there is evil. And evil must be punished. Even in the face of Armageddon I will not compromise."

Re: Vikings rank 19th in fan loyalty
Interesting, but there are couple of stats that skew it IMHO.
There are difficulty levels associated with the ability to present the team to supporters, two of them are:
3. Per capita income -- Average income per resident of the BEA economic area, 2004.
4. December temperature -- Average high temperature for the month. Domed-stadium teams are automatically assigned the worst score in this category.
Bascially that means that, every other factor being equal, fans in an area with a lower cost of living and an open air stadium (like Green Bay fans) will automatically be rated higher than fans from an area with a high cost of living and a dome (like Vikings fans).
Other than that one critique though, it was actually a very well put together study and presentation of results.Zeus wrote:
When are you going to realize that picking out the 20 bad throws this year and ignoring the 300 good ones does not make your point?
Re: Vikings rank 19th in fan loyalty
I do agree with this in a way.
If we had better fan loyalty, the season would be sold out, right now even the packers game is not sold out.
If we had better fan loyalty it wouldnt matter who we had playing everyone would still be excited about the season regardless of last years record.
There are a lot of bandwagon fans in mn.
Look at the twins, early in the year no one cared about the team, they start to win and people show up.
thats not being loyal to your team.
Loyalty is being there from start to finish year after year.
The timberwolves can only get fans to show if they are winning, even with the top 5 player in the NBA, the wild are still in their honey moon stage so it would be premature to judge them.
The packers have a waiting list for generations, the vikings dont even have a waiting list anymore.
it doesnt matter where they play, if you are loyal you show up.
I hate the metrodome with a passion, i still keep my season tickets.You republican whore!
Re: Vikings rank 19th in fan loyalty
The 49'ers fans rated ahead of us?
That is B.S. I live in 49'er country and believe me they are the most fair-weather fans around.
Even when they were winning all those Super Bowl back in the 80's you could tell if the 49'ers won or lost their game that day by what those fans would wear to work.
Nines win then it was 49'ers gear and I have always been a Niner fan.
Loose? Then would not even admit to even watching football, much less be a 49'er fan.
How that for loyalty?
Re: Vikings rank 19th in fan loyalty
Packers I agree with. They may piss me off sometimes, but they are loyal. Lions... eh, i dont know, is it possible to be loyal and yet in denial at the same time?WE CAN BUILD ON THIS!!!
In AP I trust
Re: Vikings rank 19th in fan loyalty
I love how people bad-mouth fairweather fans. Who's to say there aren't more fans in Minnesota who count themselves as loyal, but would rather do something else with their $90 than (if that were the situation) see a Vikings team suck it up? I'm not saying the Vikings do suck, on the contrary, I love them just as you guys and girls do, but surely you can understand the economic situation people are in. If I spend $90 I damn sure wanna make sure I enjoy myself with it, or put it to good use like paying a bill or something.
I'm sorry.. I'm just bitter because I support my local football team and, frankly, I'd kill to get more fairweather fans because it'd be a result of a successful team and would bring more money to the club.. Oh well.
Re: Vikings rank 19th in fan loyalty
I bet we were close to the top from 98-2004. Didn't we sell out every game for thosee 6 years?

So many stars have been around for awhile and continue to grace the stage with their presence. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to work with one of them. I am so grateful that I was able to work with the legend, Arthur Laurents.

customers bought with this dress
Pearl and Crystal Zig Zag Bracelet Style S-1878 5 5
Simple, Pretty, but CHEAP I bought 3 of these bracelets for my wedding: one for myself (the bride) and my 2 bridesmaids. My sister's bracelet broke WHILE she was trying to put it on. Snapped in half at one of the junctions between a rhinestone and a pearl. Mine broke 45 minutes later in the middle of pictures! I didn't have a back-up bracelet or any additional ones, so I end up going "arm naked" for the entire rest of my day. I was so disappointed because I bought all 3 so that I would have something in common with the 2 most important ladies in my life and it ended up a bit of a disaster. Did it ruin my day? No. But these bracelets were still not worth the money. May 6, 2014
Beautiful Bracelet/Poor Quality My sister and I both purchased this bracelet for my wedding because it had the look we wanted, simple yet elegant. The price was great. The quality not so good, before the end of the night both my sisters and my had broken. August 26, 2012
Poor Quality Purchase this along with the necklace and earring set. Arrived missing pearls. More fell off every single time I touched it. The first time I undid the clasp for the bracelet, it snapped right off too. Don't waste your money. February 9, 2012
Really Cute I really liked this bracelet and the price was good too. My outfit is kinda pearl themed but I didnt want a straight pearl bracelet, so this was a great was to add something sparkly to my attire. June 3, 2011
