text:
As a high school junior in 2001, I finished in ninth-place in The Sporting News' online bracket challenge. In that bracket, I picked the entire Midwest Region correctly, and also picked 16 seed Boston to upset No. 1 Cincinnati because I legitimately thought it was going to happen. It didn't, but the Bearcats lost a round later, which allowed me to remain in contention and ultimately win a free pair of binoculars. Seriously, I finished in ninth-place in a contest with tens of thousands of participants and my reward was a pair of binoculars.
I've also lost to my mom, who I once heard ask how many points a charge was worth, in two of the last three bracket competitions I've participated in. Just letting you know a little bit about what you're getting into with the "expert" picks you're about to trudge through.
First Four
Liberty (16) vs. North Carolina A&T (16)
Winner: Liberty
Rationale: The team with the losing record that made a remarkable run in its conference tournament to get here has fared pretty well historically at the "First Four" or in the "Play-in-Game." Liberty is historically bad (they have the worst RPI in NCAA Tournament history), but I'll still go with the team that's most living the dream.
Middle Tennessee State (11) vs. St. Mary's (11)
Winner: Saint Mary's
Rationale: Middle Tennessee becomes the third straight hotly-contested mid-major to crash the First Four. A year ago it was Iona who drew the ire of fans across the country, and the Gaels responded by blowing a 75-pont (hyperbole) second half lead and losing to BYU. The year before that VCU was the team nobody thought belonged, and the Rams wound up in the Final Four. I think the Blue Raiders (that's Middle Tennessee) are more Iona than VCU.
LIU Brooklyn (16) vs. JMU (16)
Winner: LIU Brooklyn
Rationale: Jamal Olasewere and the Blackbirds are too good to be in this game, which is a shame for James Madison.
Boise State (13) vs. La Salle (13)
Winner: Boise State
Rationale: It'd be hard for these two teams to be more similar. I'm riding with the Broncos because I love Anthony Drmic's game and because La Salle is heading into the tournament coming off of two pretty convincing defeats.
Midwest Region
Louisville (1) vs. Liberty (16)
Winner: Louisville
Rationale: Because I'm not trying to be funny.
Colorado State (8) vs. Missouri (9)
Winner: Colorado State
Rationale: "Boring" team from a well-known conference versus under-achieving preseason national title contender is a classic 8/9 matchup. Everyone always wants to talk about how things could start to finally click for the latter team and they could upset the tournament favorite during the first weekend, and then they wind up not making it out the round of 64. See the 2011-12 Connecticut Huskies for more on this topic. It's not a fail-proof system, but always go with the consistent, disciplined, "boring" team in these situations.
Oklahoma State (5) vs. Oregon (12)
Winner: Oklahoma State
Rationale: Oregon got a raw deal with its seed, but they do get to play this game close to home in San Jose. Still, stars have a way of advancing in the tournament, and there might not be a bigger star in the Midwest than Marcus Smart.
Saint Louis (4) vs. New Mexico State (13)
Winner: Saint Louis
Rationale: The guys who have covered the Atlantic 10 closely since the start of the season talk about the Billikens the same way my dad and his friends talk about Phi Slamma Jamma. While I don't think they're quite the national title contender that A-10 enthusiasts believe they are, they're still far too disciplined to be knocked out by the WAC champions.
Memphis (6) vs. Saint Mary's (11)
Winner: Memphis
Rationale: I hate myself for picking this Memphis team to win a game, any game, in the NCAA Tournament because I swore I wouldn't, but this is a favorable matchup for Josh Pastner's team. I promise I won't be doing it again.
Michigan State (3) vs. Valparaiso (14)
Winner: Michigan State
Rationale: Don't be surprised if this is close throughout. The Crusaders are a veteran team that shoots well enough to hang with just about anybody for an extended period of time. They also have a coach in Bryce Drew who knows a little bit about March Madness. Still, Tom Izzo, March and all of that. The Spartans aren't going down in the round of 64.
Creighton (7) vs. Cincinnati (10)
Winner: Creighton
Rationale: I'm very aware that I've picked straight chalk up to this point, which makes me want to go with an "upset" here, but Creighton is a better team than Cincinnati, and they have a lot of guys who have already experienced winning in the NCAA Tournament. They also have Doug McDermott, and Cincinnati does not have Doug McDermott.
Duke (2) vs. Albany (15)
Winner: Duke
Rationale: As badly as the world wants a "LOL, DUKE LOST TO ANOTHER 15, Y'ALL" moment, it ain't happening with this group.
Louisville (1) vs. Colorado State (8)
Winner: Louisville
Rationale: Here's a little known fact: When Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich was looking for a replacement for Hallf of Fame coach Denny Crum, Larry Eustachy was actually his second choice behind Rick Pitino. That...that would not have gone as well as the Pitino thing has. The Rams will make this a very competitive game if U of L doesn't come out with the mindset that it has to protect the glass in order to win.
Saint Louis (4) vs. Oklahoma State (5)
Winner:Saint Louis
Rationale: I've had it in my mind for about six weeks now that Oklahoma State was going to be my sleeper Final Four team, but they haven't played their best basketball over the past two weeks, and they got a brutal deal by being stuck in this region. I'll go with discipline and tournament experience over next-level talent in this one.
Michigan State (3) vs. Memphis (6)
Winner: Michigan State
Rationale: I'm not saying I'm trying to make up for my guilt over picking Memphis in the last round, but the Spartans win this one by 150.
Duke (2) vs. Creighton (7)
Winner: Duke
Rationale: Gonna be a lootttt of white guys on that floor. Duke's are better.
Louisville (1) vs. Saint Louis (4)
Winner: Louisville
Rationale: The Cardinals get more transition points off of turnovers than any other team in this tournament, which makes the Billikens - who prefer to slow things down and take care of the ball extremely well - an unattractive opponent for a regional semifinal. All you have to do is look at the way SLU performed against VCU and their "Havoc" defense to know that they have a fighting chance against the No. 1 overall seed. Still, Louisville isn't VCU, and the Cardinals have just as much poise and experience as the Billikens.
Duke (2) vs. Michigan State (3)
Winner: Duke
Rationale: Izzo vs. Krzyzewsk in the Sweet 16? Not bad, Midwest Region. Not bad at all. The Blue Devils have a huge advantage inside with Mason Plumlee, and Michigan State's veteran guards have been inconsistent all season long in big games. Duke moves on and sets up a mammoth regional final.
Louisville (1) vs. Duke (2)
Winner: Louisville
Rationale: This would be a rematch of the Battle 4 Atlantis championship game from back in November, in which Duke defeated a Louisville team playing without starting center Gorgui Dieng. One of the most overlooked weaknesses of this Blue Devil team is that they have multiple players who have trouble being at full strength without a full three or four days of rest. Seth Curry is the biggest example, but Coach K also blamed a poor performance from Mason Plumlee in February on the fact that he was "playing on fumes." Struggling with exhaustion isn't a good trait to have when you're going up against a Rick Pitino Louisville team in a regional final.
West Region
Gonzaga (1) vs. Southern (16)
Winner: Gonzaga
Rationale: They're a lot better than Southern at basketball.
Pittsburgh (8) vs. Wichita State (9)
Winner: Pittsburgh
Rationale: The Panthers seem like one of the more under-seeded teams in the field, especially when you consider that the teams that finished just above the in the Big East earned seeds of one, two and three, and that the team that finished just behind them (Syracuse) is a four seed. Everyone is predicting that they'll beat Gonzaga before this game is even over.
Wisconsin (5) vs. Ole Miss (12)
Winner: Wisconsin
Rationale: Unless Bo Ryan has a heart attack after watching five minutes of Marshall Henderson, then the Badgers are moving on.
Kansas State (4) vs. Boise State (13)
Winner: Kansas State
Rationale: Classic McGruder. The last time I'm ever going to be able to say it (foreshadowing).
Arizona (6) vs. Belmont (11)
Winner: Belmont
Rationale: This is the situation I hate most when filling out brackets. If Arizona wins this game then I can see them advancing all the way to the Elite 8, BUT, I love the Bruins here. Give me the always reliable Ian Clark over the always unreliable Mark Lyons.
New Mexico (3) vs. Harvard (14)
Winner: New Mexico
Rationale: They won at Cal early in the season, but this Harvard team - which lost senior co-captains Kyle Casey and Brandyn Curry to a season-long suspension at the beginning of the year - isn't as dangerous as their name and seed would lead you to believe. The Lobos, on the other hand, are a genuine article.
Notre Dame (7) vs. Iowa State (10)
Winner: Iowa State
Rationale: Because Notre Dame is Notre Dame and they don't win games in the NCAA Tournament.
Ohio State (2) vs. Iona (15)
Winner: Ohio State
Rationale: Iona is the fourth-highest scoring team in college basketball and lays claim to one of the most exciting players in the tournament in Lamont "MoMo" Jones, but they're also as interested in playing defense as I am in "Married to Jonas" (slightly). Still, this will be fun to watch for extended periods of time.
Gonzaga (1) vs. Pittsburgh (8)
Winner: Gonzaga
Rationale: In a way, this would be sweet revenge for Pitt. The Panthers were stunned by mid-major power Butler in a complete role-reversal of this situation in 2011's Round of 32. Everyone and their drunk aunt is going to tell you that Gonzaga is going down here, but the Bulldogs aren't the complete pretender that college hoops purists desperately want to believe they are. Kelly Olynyk might score 40 in this game if Steven Adams doesn't play show up with the right mindset.
Kansas State (4) vs. Wisconsin (5)
Winner: Wisconsin
Rationale: This Kansas State team has felt destined to lose in the Round of 32 since the season began. Don't ask any questions and don't try to understand (Blessed Union of Souls).
New Mexico (3) vs. Belmont (11)
Winner: New Mexico
Rationale: Despite having a pretty a great fan base and a pretty healthy tradition, the Lobos have never advanced to the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament. It's a fact that's in jeopardy of persisting for most of the game, but big shot Tony Snell makes the difference down the stretch.
Ohio State (2) vs. Iowa State (10)
Winner: Ohio State
Rationale: The Cyclones have no answer for DeShaun Thomas, who goes off on the first weekend of the big dance for a second straight yet.
Gonzaga (1) vs. Wisconsin (5)
Winner: Gonzaga
Rationale: Double overtime. Period. Write it down. Take it to the bank.
Ohio State (2) vs. New Mexico (3)
Winner: Ohio State
Rationale: The general public picks Ohio State at an alarmingly high rate which leads ESPN analysts and college basketball writers to defend New Mexico profusely in the days leading up to this game. The Buckeyes win by double digits.
Gonzaga (1) vs. Ohio State (2)
Winner: Ohio State
Rationale: I think this is the region where it's most likely that we'll see a 5/11 (or something along those lines) Elite 8 matchup, which is why I'm ashamed of myself for copping out and going with another 1/2 regional final. Anyway, Gonzaga loses a close game and everyone celebrates it as a moral victory for the little guy like they did with St. Joe's in '04. It'll be ridiculous and downright demeaning to GU's fantastic program, but it will happen.
South Region
Kansas (1) vs. Western Kentucky (16)
Winner: Kansas
Rationale: Love you, Big Red.
North Carolina (8) vs. Villanova (9)
Winner: North Carolina
Rationale: Typically when there's a potential juicy round of 32 matchup like Roy Williams going up against Kansas, it winds up not coming to pass. Because of this, I would have taken any of the other nine seeds to beat North Carolina in this game, but 'Nova is over-seeded and doesn't have the firepower to keep up with a UNC team that's playing its best basketball of the season.
VCU (5) vs. Akron (12)
Winner: VCU
Rationale: Getting matched up with VCU is pretty much the biggest middle finger from the committee a team that just suspended its starting point guard could get.
Michigan (4) vs. South Dakota State (13)
Winner: Michigan
Rationale: I was 99.97 percent sure that Michigan was losing to Ohio in last year's 4/13 game, and on paper this looks like a similar situation. It's just hard to envision a team with Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. being one and done, even if Nate Wolters and company are fully capable of springing an upset or two. This might be the best game of the first two days of the tournament.
UCLA (6) vs. Minnesota (11)
Winner: Minnesota
Rationale: I've been saying that people were going to take the Bruins too far in their brackets for months, but now that Jordan Adams is done for the year and everyone has them going one and out, I almost want to pick them here. Almost. Minnesota isn't a bad draw for UCLA, but I trust post-2007 Ben Howland as far as I can throw Reggie Johnson.
Florida (3) vs. Northwestern State (14)
Winner: Florida
Rationale: This isn't 2006, and Florida isn't Iowa.
San Diego State (7) vs. Oklahoma (10)
Winner: Oklahoma
Rationale: Jamaal Franklin potentially doing something cool is the only draw here. The Aztecs have lost six of their last seven games away from home.
Georgetown (2) vs. Florida Gulf Coast (15)
Winner: Georgetown
Rationale: If there's another 2/15 stunner in this year's tournament, it's probably going to involve the 15 seed that beat Miami by double digits. I don't think there's a 2/15 stunner in this year's tournament ... which is why 10 seconds ago you read that I picked Georgetown.
Kansas (1) vs. North Carolina (8)
Winner: Kansas
Rationale: I don't trust North Carolina teams with any less than four potential first round NBA Draft picks. Even if you stretch, it's hard to find any more than three on this squad.
Michigan (4) vs. VCU (5)
Winner: Michigan
Rationale: Pressing, running, shooting, guards, guards, guards; that's my five-word summary of this game. It should be enough to draw you in. John Beilein's guards are better.
Florida (3) vs. Minnesota (11)
Winner: Florida
Rationale: Accurate or not, it feels like Florida always winds up playing a double-digit seed that sprung an upset in the round of 32. It also feels like they always win said game with ease. It happens again in 2013.
Georgetown (2) vs. Oklahoma (10)
Winner: Georgetown
Rationale: Because of their occasional offensive struggles, I can see the Hoyas going down early like they did in 2008 and 2010. I just can't see Oklahoma doing the upsetting.
Kansas (1) vs. Michigan (4)
Winner: Michigan
Georgetown (2) vs. Florida (3)
Winner: Florida
Florida (3) vs. Michigan (4)
Winner: Florida
East Region
Indiana (1) vs. LIU Brooklyn (16)
Winner: Indiana
Rationale: LIU isn't going to not get up-and-down just because they're playing Indiana. That's not going to go well for them.
N.C. State (8) vs. Temple (9)
Winner: Temple
Rationale: Please see the 8/9 picking guide from the Midwest Region.
UNLV (5) vs. California (12)
Winner: UNLV
Rationale: The ever-rare Round of 64 rematch from the regular season. Vegas has consistently disappointed in the tournament in recent years, but this is a good draw for them. Anthony Bennett and company dispose of the Bears for a second time.
Syracuse (4) vs. Montana (13)
Winner: Syracuse
Rationale: This one has all the makings of an upset. Syracuse is coming off a historic collapse in the Big East title game and is facing a team with tournament experience and a bona fide star in Will Cherry ... which is why I'm picking the Orange. See the Blessed Union of Souls lyric from earlier.
Butler (6) vs. Bucknell (11)
Winner: Bucknell
Rationale: Mike Muscala and the Bison give the new "Hollywood" Bulldogs from the A-10 a taste of their own medicine.
Marquette (3) vs. Davidson (14)
Winner: Davidson
Rationale: I feel very confident about this. The Golden Eagles have no business being on the three line, and Davidson would be one of the more dangerous 13 seeds in the tournament had they been slotted there. Bob McKillop, Jake Cohen and the Wildcats advance in the big dance for the first time since Stephen Curry left town.
Illinois (7) vs. Colorado (10).
Winner: Colorado
Rationale: This will be the game anti-college basketball fans point to and say "how can you watch this?" Fork stab them in the kidney as Andre Roberson snags another rebound.
Miami (2) vs. Pacific (15)
Winner: Miami
Rationale: Larkin and Scott combine for 50 plus. You say "yes," when asked if Shane is Barry Larkin's son on at least three separate occasions.
Indiana (1) vs. Temple (9)
Winner: Indiana
Rationale: The casual college hoops fan falls in love with Victor Oladipo, who does things that no one on Temple has an answer for.
Syracuse (4) vs. UNLV (5)
Winner: Syracuse
Rationale: Two teams that everyone wants to be be better than they are. Both teams will have less than 20 points at the under four timeout in the first half. Write that down on a post-it and put said post-it on the wall above your bed until this game is played.
Bucknell (11) vs. Davidson (14)
Winner: Davidson
Rationale: America falls in love with the same team it fell in love with five years ago.
Miami (2) vs. Colorado (10)
Winner: Miami
Rationale The Canes survive a scare and everyone starts calling them a pretender. Jim Larranaga cusses those people out in his mind but says the right things publicly. Reggie Johnson eats a sandwich.
Indiana (1) vs. Syracuse (4)
Winner: Indiana
Rationale: The Hoosiers win by 20, spawning a hoard of meaningless "are they now the favorite?" conversations.
Miami (2) vs. Davidson (14)
Winner: Miami
Rationale: In a cruel twist of fate, Davidson misses a three at the buzzer just like they did in '08.
Indiana (1) vs. Miami (2)
Winner: Indiana
Rationale: Jordan Hulls goes crazy from the outside and the nation again falls into a meaningless debate over whether or not the Hooisers are the favorites as they head to Atlanta.
Final Four
Louisville (1) vs. Ohio State (2)
Winner: Louisville
Rationale: Aaron Craft going up Louisville's duo of Peyton Siva and Russ Smith will be the main attraction, but the Cards out-tough the Buckeyes in the paint to seal the deal in the game's final minutes. Montrezl Harrell dunks and screams multiple times.
Indiana (1) vs. Florida (3)
Winner: Florida
Rationale: Five thousand Louisville/Indiana previews are dragged into the trash can icon as the Gators go berserk from beyond the arc.
National Championship Game
Louisville (1) vs. Florida (3)
Winner: Louisville
Rationale: Rick Pitino claims his second national title by beating his protege, Billy Donovan. Former two-star recruit Russ Smith is named Final Four MVP and every major scouting service instantly bursts into Internet flames.

History of St. Petersburg Museum
Rimsky-Korsakov Apartment Museum
By Yekaterina Kravtsova
The St. Petersburg Times
Published: January 22, 2014 (Issue # 1794)
An official from the European Union spoke out about several concerns over Russia during a visit to Moscow on Jan. 17, warning that plans for a visa-free regime would be put on hold until issues of corruption and human rights are addressed.
The meeting came shortly after the EU decided to cut short a planned meeting with Russian leaders in Brussels later this month, a move which observers have attributed to an ongoing spat over Ukraine.
Visa-Free Visits Floated For Airline Transit Passengers
Justice Minister Alexander Konovalov said the meeting on Jan. 17 of the Russia-EU Permanent Partnership Council was more about preserving ties than anything else.
"We are trying not to turn our relations completely sour and maintain a certain level of dialogue," Konovalov said after meeting with EU Home Affairs Commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom, adding that the EU was not willing to take further steps in the dialogue for a visa-free regime with Russia.
Konovalov added that Russia was not going to pressure the EU over the visa deal. "We have a feeling that our colleagues in the EU are not committed and do not feel a need to eliminate the barriers between Russia and the EU," he said.
Visa Rules Eased for Foreign Investors
Negotiations about the visa-free regime have been ongoing for more than ten years, and Russia has accused the EU of deliberately delaying the process on several occasions. In December, Russia said it had prepared a visa agreement and that it hoped the EU would sign it at the next Russia-EU summit, which has now been shortened from two days to a few hours on Jan. 28.
At the request of the EU, the summit, which is usually held over two days with numerous meetings, will consist solely of a working dinner in Brussels on Jan. 28 between President Vladimir Putin, Herman Van Rompuy, President of the European Council, Jose Manuel Barroso, President of the European Commission, and EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.
Relations between Russia and the EU hit a rough patch after Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych backed out of an association agreement with the EU in favor of closer ties with Moscow.

So good.
The taste of Ionic-Fizz Magnesium Plus is awesome and that is normally a difficult thing to find when taking calcium. Also when something says it is dissoluble it doesnt always dissolve all the way but with just a few quick stirs it is completely dissolved.
Boost Calcium intake
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

I've tried to be as objective in my individual scores so the accumulative score might appear higher than what it should. WTFX2?
I picked one up because I had one of their glasses early on in my beer exploation days. I figured, hey... they gave me a free glass - I'll give their beer a shot. Although, even their bottle never captivated me.
Not to be redundant but WTF? It doesn't even taste like a beer. Perhaps an acquired taste?? Sweet, sparkling, cider? WTF? It's just wrong. Sorry Innis. All that Oak Aging gone to waste. Not for me, although I know some must appreciate you.

Whoa, where to start... It looked OK, with a deep amber brownish hue, but it was all downhill from there. Musky, woodsy, eye-watering smell. Overly sweet taste combined with the chewy and slick mouthfeel are what you'd expect if motor oil were blended with honey and maple syrup. Couldn't even finish the glass; stay away.

2.1/5 rDev -45%
750ml bottle into a 7venth Sun snifter.
A - Pours a nice, clear reddish-auburn. Decent finger or so of head, but not much retention and only wisps of lacing on the glass. Inauspicious start.
S - Meh. Smells like a bland scotch ale. Maybe just the slightest hint of vanilla and spice, sweet malt, and sherry.
T - More meh. Just an average scotch brown ale, with little to no sign of the rum barrel that is featured so prominently on the label multiple times. I'd call it plain vanilla, except some vanilla would liven the taste of this beer up quite a bit. It's sweet in the wrong places, bitter in the wrong places. Disappointing to say the least.
M - Very thin and almost cloying in its sweetness. Not at all what I'd expect from a beer in this category.
O - I honestly do not understand the above-average scores from others for this beer. I've already had a superlative rum barrel-aged scotch ale this month -- CCB BA Big Sound. This beer bears no resemblance to that one. It barely tastes like a wee heavy, and I have no idea why they bother putting the "rum barrel" information on the label. Not worth the time, the money, or the calories. Down the drain it goes...

2.13/5 rDev -44.2%
Pours a surprisingly dark rich amber, topped by more head than I got from the last two Innis & Gunn's I tried and with tons more lacing.
The aroma is much more subdued than the regular Oak Aged Beer I just had, almost more like a Sauvignon Blanc mixed with Coke.
The taste is sweet bread, sour plums, with raisins and a sweet sugary rum finish and again, it has almost more of the air of a sweet white wine mixed with a rum and Coke about it than it does a beer. Odd.
Thin mouthfeel. Lots of carbonation.
You know what? Forget it. I just find, of the three I have had, I&G beers are too sweet and the oak finishing brings nothing to the party for me.

Clear Glass 750ml
Auburn with a half-inch grey head that exits very quickly. after a few moments, the beer just sits flatly in glass.
phenolic burst, ginger, vanilla, some oak, a bit of anise, faintly orange but more an orange extract or oil than the whole fruit, slight cinnamon and pepper. if i were blinded and held this to my nose, i'd probably think soda, like a mix of stewart's and sprite.
tasting some wood, that orange extract, ginger, cinnamon, phenol acidity, then it halts and finishes muted and rounds out with a taste like plastic.
it flattens quickly and becomes watery. it still holds a minute amount of carbonation on the swallow for a slight burn and tingle, but it does not last.
i couldn't finish it. it's unfortunate, but it just didn't work for me. it smells like an overly sweetened soft drink, tastes like cheap dark rum watered down with a vanilla cola and is flat after several sips and swirls. sorry.

A- Pours a really clear dark red with a nice foamy cream colored head. Head is gone in a flash and leaves no lacing.
S- Smell is very very sweet and almost like cream soda. Picking up vanilla, wood and rum. Nothing really beer like.
T- Again very sweet, too sweet. Vanilla, wood and rum really come through. Nothing else really.
M- Fairly light in body and carbonation.
O- This one was more like cream soda than beer.

flee says:
Like a lot of bikers I know, MCN is thought of as a sensationalistic tabloid comic, rather than a serious bike newspaper but it does regularly contain the odd piece of journalistic treasure which makes you buy it from time to time.
I had anticipated such treasures this morning when I bought MCN to read about the SMC which I have just put a deposit on. However I was treated to a whole 5 paragraphs of standard waffle. I've read Adam's work before and he often writes excellent articles so I can only assume this was an editorial decision to crop most of his comments out.
Why should I buy a newspaper which will happily use double page spreads week after week to highlight sensationalism and rumour when it totally ignores the reader who simply wants to read about bikes. This week your picture of Ken Livingston is 3 times the size of the SMC review - Is that what the editor really thinks we want?
Please stop writing for attention grabbing headlines and give us some decent (and full length) bike reviews.
A reply to this would be appreciated

Man Accidentally Donates Engagement Ring
Donating to the needy is a great thing. But as a man in Georgia found out, you better check your pockets first.
Josh Miller took some clothes down to Goodwill. One of the items was a black and gray ski jacket he barely wore anymore. Hidden inside one of the pockets was a $3,500 engagement ring for his girlfriend Cara Epstein.
Miller donated the clothes on Monday, he didn't realize the mistake until Wednesday.
"I was just shaking," he told WSB-TV. "I didn't know what to do, or what to say, or how to feel. I called Cara immediately, but she thought I was joking."
Store staff said the coat probably hit the racks at the store Monday or Tuesday.
"The coat just happened to be one of the things that I picked out of the closet and set in the pile to go to Goodwill," Miller, 31, told WSB-TV.
The couple is hoping a good Samaritan will identify the ring and return it.
"We just finally, for once, found the perfect engagement ring, and we were very excited," he said.
Miller had hidden the ring for two months and was waiting to ask Epstien's dad for permission.
"It's a setback, but we'll move forward. I'm trying to be positive," Epstein said.
"She's a school teacher and I'm a landscaper," Miller said. "We obviously don't make enough money to afford something like that on a regular basis. It was a very large purchase for us, and I just made a very bad mistake."

In my endless need to be self-critical, I can't help but think of this strip as a rehash of the joke in King Neptune, another strip where the spectre of ecological disaster is raised as a foil for something trivial. Oh well.
Or are sports trivial? I'm a crazed fan of the Washington Redskins, and to a lesser extent, the Captitals and the Nationals, with sympathies for the Pittsburgh Pirates, Steelers and the Chicago Cubs. I despise the Dallas Cowboys beyond reasonable measure. I think deep feelings of tribal identity and loyalty are part of human nature, and sports is a much better way to express them than, say, nationalism or religious crusading. Sports can take over in a culture, and there's an opportunity cost…stadiums instead of infrastructure, football pride in place of academic. But it's a harmless safety valve and I enjoy it, to the bafflement of a few of my even more nerdcore friends.

Newcastle United have failed in their bid to get legal clearance for Joey Barton to play against Liverpool on Saturday.
Joey Barton – not available for Saturday
It turns out that under the restrictions of his bail, the Liverpool born midfielder is not able to visit Liverpool, the city where his altercation occurred just after Christmas.
In fact Barton is due to be in front of magistrates in Liverpool next week on an assault charge. This follows his latest incident outside a McDonald's restaurant in Liverpool city center on December 27th.
Apparently Barton was in court on Monday in an attempt to get a judge to lift the restriction. The plea apparently was flatly turned down, which is hardly surprising.
There's nothing like having your own troubles in a time when Newcastle are starting to look at a big relegation fight on their hands.
So Kevin Keegan will need to look at other midfield options for Saturday. It still looks like Emre may not be fit yet again and Kevin could do worse than play young Charles N'Zogbia in central midfield. Charles likes playing there, and certainly could provide some drive in midfield for us.
Turkish international Emre has not played since the 4-1 defeat by Aston Villa on February 9th. He has a niggling injury similar to Viduka and Emre is out with a calf injury while Mark still has a slight hamstring problem.
Emre's absence in particular has been a a big problem for Keegan as Kevin sees Emre creating the chances for his front two. This is not a good time to have these players unavailable to the team.
Comments very welcome.

Your Guide to Money Etiquette
Must I Purchase Something After a Free Makeover?
Q: Must I buy something when I get a makeover at a department-store beauty counter?
A: No, but you should be open to the idea of purchasing an item or two, says Elizabeth D. Scott, a professor of business administration and business ethics at Eastern Connecticut State University, in Willimantic, Connecticut. Whether you're popping by on a whim or you've made an appointment in advance, or whether you're asking to try out that shadow palette or to get an entirely new look, there's an unspoken agreement between you and the salesperson that you are a potential customer. Consider that a makeover can take anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour, and if you weren't there, the salesperson could be attracting or assisting other customers. Plus, when you occupy one of the stools at the counter, you're sending other shoppers a message: There might be a wait if they want personal attention. If you know full well that you're not going to open your wallet, skip the counter completely. Or at the very least, speak up before you ask for any kind of application, says makeup artist and cosmetics-company founder Trish McEvoy. Try something like this: "I'm not going to buy today, but I might next month, when my stash is low." This shows that you respect the person behind the counter—and her time. No matter what you say, the odds are good that you'll get the royal treatment anyway.

Please note: Our photos are as accurate as possible, but color discrepancies may occur between the product and your monitor. The handcrafted touch of artisan skill also creates variations in color, size, and design; slight differences should be expected.

Trained to kill but determined to cheer their school's team to the championship game, three lethal cheerleading ninjas must put down their pom poms and pick up their katanas when their sensei is abducted by the mob. April, Courtney, and Monica may just be college freshmen, but they can take out an army of ninja assassins with the skill of an ancient master. Schooled in the ancient martial arts by the esteemed Sensei Hiroshi ({$George Takei}), these three beauties spend their days in the classroom and their nights in the strip club - where they work the poles to pay for their college tuition. Then one day, Sensei Hiroshi is abducted and their lives are suddenly turned upside down. Now, in order to rescue their master, April, Courtney, and Monica will have to summon the skills he once taught them and take on a virtual army of mob assassins. With a nosy cop closing in on one side and suspicious parents asking questions on the other, these girls will have to work overtime in order to keep anyone from finding out what kind of destruction they're truly capable of. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

I'm also active in a German bicycle touring forum:
In this forum the guys have tested all kinds of hub generators and by far the SON is the best:
I'm not a big fan of the neoprene booties, although I used them for years since I didn't see many options. I was forced out of them when I started using mtb shoes
Below -20F!!! Do you actually tour in those conditions? I could see myself getting stuck with those conditions on an XC ski or snowshoe tour, but if I experienced -20F on a bike tour, I'd be looking for a room to wait for warmer weather.What's the best shoe cover for riding in cold weather?
Probably whatever the other guy is wearing.
I have neoprene booties. They achieve nothing except some water protection. If you need to keep your toesies warm in sub-20F, you must have adequate insualtion and you must add heat. Even pedaling at a nice clip (risking wind chill on the exposed bits) you cannot get enough warm blood into your toes to keep you comfortable for long.
At home I wouldn't dream of riding in -20F, I would hike, trail run, snowshoe, or XC ski, but riding a bike in those conditions wouldn't even occur to me.
My hat is off to any braves souls who would tour in -20F or lower.
Additionally, and like Shimano, a nice all-SRAM touring drivetrain could be put together mixing their road, mountain and Truvativ lines.
Campy Ergo brifters address and/or eliminate most of your comments on the disadvantages of brifters.
-They have a "micro-shift" ratchet for the front shifting so you can trim any deraileur to center it over any chainring, including triples.
-The upper lines (Record and Chorus) allow a full sweep of both the cassette and chainrings in both directions, upshifting and downshifting.
-Ergos have had the shift cables under the bar tape since the 8-speed days so they don't interfer with any handlebar bag.
-Ergo brifters can be rebuilt so the durability issue is lessened
I ride the drops a fair bit but I don't, and most other riders don't, climb with my hand in the drops and that's where the ability to shift from the hoods or tops is so very welcome. For the record, both Ergo and STI brifters can be shifted from the drops if you wish. Bar ends can only be shifted from the drops. I'm not frightened of them, I've used them more than enough to give them a good evaluation and found brifters better in almost all conditions.
Finally, I assume everyone is going to say, true but they can only be used with Campy (read expensive) components and their gearing range is limited. Well, Jtek's Shiftmate will make Ergos compatible with otherwise all Shimano components and they shift like a dream.

This 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS454 is the beautiful result of a frame-off restoration on a rust free Alabama car. Powered by a period-correct LS6 454/450 HP engine mated to a 4-speed manual transmission, it possesses the powerplant that gave the SS454 the title of "King of the Muscle cars" and, with its Black paint, White Sport stripes and factory SS wheels, also looks every bit the part. Showing a believed actual 54,298 miles, it offers power steering and power front disc brakes and a Black bucket seat interior with console, factory SS gauges and AM/FM 8-track stereo.

I need a gps open source software, for editing.
Is there a gps software open for Qt for symbian?
I need a gps open source software, for editing.
Is there a gps software open for Qt for symbian?
What excatly you would want to do with it ? Mobility should have positioning APIs, thus you could look the examples from the mobility package.
There are no open source navigation programs/applications for Symbian (Qt, Symbian C++ or Java), as far as I know. If you need one, you have to use an existing application as-is (Ovi Maps, Google Maps, etc.), or develop your own (there the Qt Mobility APIs may be of use to you).
For open source map data, see OpenMaps: http://openmaps.eu/
What I want is to modify a simple navigation software. Ovi
maps, have their own libraries?, I can do a basic software for
navigation, not very complicated, so easy with Ovi maps?
Maps Ovi does not support my phone, N95 8Gb, has any solution?
Nokia Maps or Ovi Maps (same thing, different versions; Nokia Maps was renamed to Ovi Maps) have no published APIs that developers can use from Symbian C++ or Java.
The N95 8GB has the older Nokia Maps available for it.
Nokia's implementations (Nokia Maps, Ovi Maps) cannot be modified. Google Maps isn't open source, either.
However, what sprung to my mind was the Swedish WayFinder (+ the Finnish Navicore that WayFinder acquired), which Vodafone acquired, and then did this: http://oss.wayfinder.com/
Petrib thank you very much for your help.
Note that the new Map & Navigation APIs in Qt Mobility 1.1 (in Nokia Qt SDK tech preview) provide much more of the functionality you need to build a navigation app than the Wayfinder OSS JavaScript tile management code.
Also note the terms and conditions of use of the Nokia/Ovi plugin for the Qt APIs - you can't use it to build a commercial navigation application, or internal corporate apps for salesforce or fleet management etc. Read the conditions in detail before using it!

P&O Ferries: Magic of Women exhibition in Rotterdam's Wereldmuseum
Since it is International Women's Day today, we thought it prudent to draw your gaze to Wereldmuseum's exhibition, 'Magic of Women' in Rotterdam.
The exhibition opens on the 5th April and runs through to 9th September, displaying jewellery and textiles of the Indonesian archipelago. The artefacts on display have been donated by collectors in Europe and the United States and are hugely impressive in their richness of detail and beauty. The crafts on show were of cultural and religious significance –they served as displays of status and authority – as well as keeping the balance between spirits and humanity. This exhibition promises to be an eye opener with incredible works of gold and silver to enchant you.
Wereldmuseum also has its 'Future Pass' exhibition running at the moment. This exhibition has come to Rotterdam following a very successful showing in Venice.
'Future Pass' takes a look forward to the artistic themes that will come to define the 21st Century. It is divided in to five sections, East – West, Past – Future, Yin – Yang, Universal – Individual and Virtual – Real.
With more than 130 international artists will showing their paintings, sculptures, installations, films and photos his intriguing exhibition will move and inspire you in equal measure.
Wereldmuseum is in the heart of Rotterdam on the riverfront, which is an excellent location for an outing with quick access to the rest of the city. The museum is open from 10am to 8pm with a restaurant, shop and wine bar. Children under 13 can enter for free.
P&O Ferrries run a frequent service from Hull to Rotterdam, if you're staying in the city Wereldmuseum is a short trip away. You can also book a guided tour of the museum too.

When a radio station wants to broadcast a program that reaches as many ears as possible-even remote listeners in the hinterlands-it amps up the signal. But when content marketers with branded content to promote seek to swell their audience, it's not as simple as cranking up a dial. Wider distribution of content that's created to grow affinity and brand consideration-and not necessarily to hawk a product or service-requires careful research, planning, and execution to overcome the significant challenges today. Smart publishers, content providers, and marketers need to recognize these challenges and develop effective strategies to connect with the crowds in a landscape that's already overcrowded with competitors.

This black-and-white, stop-motion cartoon—an expanded version of Burton's 1984 live-action short of the same title—might prove too scary for small fry. But it will delight their older siblings and amuse parents as well.
After his beloved pet Sparky is killed in an accident, socially isolated but scientifically gifted Victor Frankenstein (voice of Charlie Tahan) uses stock monster-movie methods to bring the pooch back to life.
Despite his subsequent efforts to conceal his breakthrough from his parents (voices of Catherine O'Hara and Martin Short) and from his peers—voiced, among others, by Atticus Shaffer and James Hiroyuki Liao—Victor's secret gets out. And when his schoolmates try to emulate his feat, the results are temporarily disastrous.
Said classmates constitute an odd assortment of entertainingly eerie figures, including pint-sized versions of characters long ago made famous by Boris Karloff and Peter Lorre. Another familiar genre persona, the Weird Girl (also voiced by O'Hara), becomes the vehicle for the only material in the picture that some might consider objectionable.
The Weird Girl believes that her cat, Mr. Whiskers, is given to prophetic dreams, and that the subject of each dream can be identified by the fact that Mr. Whiskers' droppings afterward form the first initial of that person's name. The Weird Girl relates all this—visual aid included—to indicate to Victor that something dramatic is about to happen to him.
Victor's interest in experimentation is sparked by his Vincent Price-like science teacher, Mr. Rzykruski (voice of Martin Landau). Though a subplot involves Mr. Rzykruski's persecution at the hands of ignorant townsfolk, there's no direct connection drawn between their fear of him and their adherence to any form of supernatural belief, religious or otherwise. And while Mr. Rzykruski praises the value of science at some length, he never does so to the disparagement of faith.
The light-hearted tone of John August's screenplay, moreover, together with the less-than- scientifically plausible events on which so much of the plot turns, make it doubtful that any serious point is being made—apart, perhaps, from a general endorsement of learning in the broadest sense.
