Ethiopia to Kenya: Marsabit Highway Warning
A warning for those who intend to cross from Ethiopia to Kenya through Moyale - Marsabit - Isiolo...
We went through that road 6 weeks ago. One or two days later, an attack occured on a police station, the road was closed and all traffic was diverted to Wajir. The problem is that the Wajir road is much longer and, according to travellers, has quite a bit of sand.
The Kenyan police chief in Moyale doesn't say the truth about the current situation. You'd better ask people in town or even low-level customs guards. Someone recommended us not to drive in front of all other vehicules when leaving in the morning because some bombs have been planted on the road in the past (2 or 3 attacks last June and July).
Another sad story about that road was told to us by the gendarme at the French embassy in Nairobi. Last year, 2 bikers who had met in Kenya - one French, the other Dutch - took that road without escort. The French guy was found dead (althrough the autopsy did not show any evidence of foul play) and the Dutch guy disappeared without trace.
If we had known this, we would have ridden much closer to our escort...
Sorry for the bad news,
Pierre - http://photobiker.com
We had a similar story last year when we went there. Most of the traveller talk before suggested it was the police trying to talk up the situation to justify their numbers in running convoys. We went down from Moyale to Masabit on the first day without a convoy. Spent then night in Masabit but then police wouldn't let us out of town without the convoy. Went and spoke to the police chief - actually gave the town commissioner an earful before he pointed out he wasn't the police chief. Chief was a nice guy, only the second day in the job. In the end we compromised and followed a police landrover out. They had about 11 police on board and they went off somewhere else after about an hour gesturing for us to stay on the road. Our rear shocks went and we crawled down to Nanyuki at 10kms an hour without major incident. Then found out that two days before, a dutch bedford 4 tonne truck with four people on board was stopped by 15 gun men with AK47s, they shot in the air, forced the driver out on to the ground and put a gun to the back of his head but then refused a video camera and other electrical gear and ended up taking about £40 in cash. Met with British troops stationed down there who had been shot at - not good for travellers if the locals are prepared to shoot at soldiers in uniform in Army landrovers with rifles - presumably they don't know they only have blanks. Loads of travellers coming through however. Aparently the bandits are mainly interested in trucks because the drivers carry the money from the goods they sell. Not so interested in 4x4s and not interested in motorbikes.
[This message has been edited by Toby2 (edited 13 September 2003).]
I'm intending using that road to Nanyuki in December. Do you reckon it's safe WITH an escort. How much does this cost? My own experience with bandits in Africa is that they seem to occur at tribal (rather than national) boundaries and it's totally hit and miss whether you encounter them. Fortunately I never have, though my wife was ambushed at gunpoint in a Matatu and foolishly concealed her engagement and wedding rings in her mouth...not a good idea. Two people were shot dead but she was dismissed unharmed. She was also mugged collecting money from Western Union and robbed. Both incidents in Nairobi during the Moi era. Things are getting a lot better in nairobi now but there are still hi - jacks. It used to be the same in Mareilles when walking down to En Vau to climb! Plus ca change
Interesting topic (especially seeing as I'll be doing this early next year!) - I never imagined that by the time I got to ethiopia/kenya there would be too many potential hazards - it's really close to forever unstable somalia i guess - I'm sure a lot of the trouble in this region is as a direct result of the insecurity there....
I have two qu's:
1/ I've heard about the military escort - as with freerockspirit, does anyone know how much it costs and also does the convoy go from the ethiopian side at Moyale into Kenya?
2/ I've heard about another route into Kenya from ethiopia via Lake Turkana (crossing at Banya Fort - approx 300km west of Moyale)...has anyone gone this way - I've heard that while it's a much safer route, there are no offcial border posts on it - It would essentially mean turning up in Nairobi without a stamp and with a lot of explaning to do! Can anyone verify this?
We crossed with an overlander truck that hired 2 policemen - and their kalachnikovs - for a total of $75. We figured it would cover their expenses (meals, hotel, transportation) to find their way back to Moyale. The cops there are quite willing to take the trip (often, they have to go anyway to visit their families) but it is not easy for them to arrange the trip back to Moyale.
First of all, the police chief in Moyale (kenya side) doesn't know what he's talking about. Don't trust him.
We drove into Kenya from Ethiopia last january and after talking to the police chief on the Kenyian side took an alternative route. The convoy starts early in the morning on the Kenya side, and thus, if you want to take the convoy, it's best to cross the border the afternoon before. Incase you get held up with customs etc.
We got the impression that the route we took alone; Moyale, Wajir, Mado Gashi, Isiolo, was not uncommon. This is east of the convoy route, more towards Somalia. We began to wonder a bit when the officers at the many check points seemed so suprised to see us... In Mado Gashi, we were told at the police station that they hadn't seen white people there since the officers began their tour of "the operational area". About 3 years before. We asked if we could sleep in the compound and they advised us that it would be best for us, as there was a little "religious tention" in the area. When the district police chief later arrived, the fun really began. He was drunk as a skunk and immediatly ordered us arrested, as potential terrorists! Basically because he was suspicious that we came down this "backway route". In his drunken state, he thought we were trying to sneak into Kenya to pull off a new Mombasa bombing...
All our documents (maps, passports, car papers etc.) were confiscated and 4 men were ordered to guard us with their battle rifles!
The car was driven a bit away from the buildings (incase a bomb went off in it...) and we then spent a couple of hours convincing the police chief that we were tourists from Norway, and not Al Qaida terrorists!
This wasn't a money/bribe issue. It was a genuinally serious matter to the guy. Eventually we conviced him of who we were, and he then ordered his men to change around and guard us throughout the night against the local population. According to him, they were not too fond of non-muslims, and there had been a lot of religious violance recently.
After a sweaty night in our tent, we were given 2 officers with guns, grenades and the works to escort us to the farside (west side) of mount Kenya. For free! It took a days drive and that was the end of our journey through the Operational Area. The officers told us about some recent bandit battles, and we could see on their faces that they didn't feel quite secure driving around there. It was obvious that the stories weren't just to scare us.
What was a little scary was that the police chiefs men blindly followed his orders even though he was totaly drunk!
There are some benefits of driving this route; the tracks are sand (and a bit of mud when we were there) instead of the sharp rocks on the convoy route which will rip up your tyres. For motorcycles though, I'd say that the sandy ruts we had were quite bad. Often with dense bush on the sides, so you'd be forced to stick to the ruts...
If there are any bandits roaming around this alternative route, they definatly won't expect you to come along, unlike on the convoy route where "everyone" drives.
The downside is that the bandits here supposedly shoot at your vehicle to stop you... Unlike on the convoy route where you are "held up".
Another thing we've heard down there is that when people get a flat tyre etc. with the convoy, it just continues and leaves the stricken car/bike behind! Some convoy!
Obviously there are upsides and downsides to both ways.
If making a choice, I'd go the same way over again!
Good luck.

I think it's a personal decision wether to take this road or not.
At the end of the day you need to weigh up the risks and decide wether you personally are prepared to ride it or not.
I motorbike this road in late May and although there was a risk of bandits at the time, had no problems.
I know of a German couple who took the Wajir route 2 weeks before and had no probs either.
But saying that, I didn't expect any trouble in the Omo valley and had to run an ambush.
While in the Omo valley I was told by a German prospector that Banja Fort now has a customs post,
but don't underestimate this area, it is very isolated and you need to be 100% self-reliant.
There is a convoy going down I think every day. Its free but it goes early. It also offers minimum protection as some vehicles dissappear off in to the distance whilst the slow old trucks drive miles and miles behind. There is also scope to have police on / in your vehicles, however this could be counter production. There was an argument raised that if rebels were encountered who didn't engage, the police might still engage leading to a shoot out rather than just a hold up and robbing or nothing at all. Just a perspective. Dutch truck that got robbed was stopped by a gang of 15 armed with AK47s, would one policeman have been able to stop this? hard to tell I guess as to whether it would be sufficient to put them off?
We drove the route via Omo Valley / Lake Turkana in January. From Ethiopia you drive towards the Omo Valley and then illegally cross the border into Kenya (there definitely was no customs office on the Ethiopian side). This route is actually described in "Durch Afrika" by Daerr. The description is crap though and we got caught by the Ehiopian police. A lot a shouting and a USD 100 bribe, 20 km before the border.
Anyway, safely made it into Kenya. We ran into a missionaries' house just across the border and they drew us a map to Nairobi which was another three days driving.
You more or less follow the eastern shore of the Turkana Lake through Sibiloi NP and eventually end up in Loyangalani where you have the first fuel stop after approx. 600 km.
We got our visa in Nairobi without any trouble at all. The advantage of this route is that basically there is NO traffic for three days. The place is indeed extremely isolated. In case of a breakdown this can be a bit tricky of course. We passed one truck full of heavily armed guys in military suits standing by the side of the road and that was it. Make sure you carry enough water because it's HOT. The driving was not really difficult but perhaps can be if it's been raining because of river crossings with steep banks. It is an extremely beautiful route and scenically it was one of the highlights of our whole trip.

I published a warning in the Advisories forum about recent shootings in the area. 76 persons were killed:
Pierre (& Merritt too)
I went along this road the day of the attack. A bit tense to say the least. My bike was too slow for armed convoy so they just sent me on anyway. Lots of armed villagers wandering about in groups, and the two main villages had self-imposed road blocks.
News reports today say that the army/police are now there in number, with armoured fighting vehicles. You take your chances. But route information from the locals in Moyale was inaccurate.
There were 70 plus people killed, 200 plus injured, 70k's NW of Marsabit yesterday. 6am raid by supposed "shifta". Mainly women and school-children, pangas spears and AKs.
Check the Kenyan News sources for full info.
Things as we all know change very fast in Africa so all this info could be useless soon, but non the less: I took the turkana route in July 2004 and found it to be extreme in every way, the highlight of my trip and also some of the most hair raising moments. Riding is often slow and getting caught at night on the road near Loyangalosi (spell?) meant lots of falling. There is petrol at Loyangalosi from mission priests but only if they have enough to spare. When i rode there was no Immig or customs at Illoret (Fort Banya on Mich map, but everyone in area knows it as illoret). There IS however Immigrattion on Ethiop side at Omorate, when i was there it was functional and they were building an new office. No Customs though, youll be told to go to customs in Addis. Dont bother, its madness, i spent 5 days there trying and gave up. Crossed into Sudan by riding straight past Ethiop customs. I met a guy who came from N to S via this route and he went to Kenya embassy in Addis to explain problem of no Immig in Illoret and they gave him letter which smoothed his way to Nairobi.
Moyale route ive not tried but its always been a bit dodgy... remember that trucks do pass every day and attacks are uncommon on travellers... could get hit by a bus in London, you get my drift?
Has anyone done this route or heard of someone else. I am trying to get some GPS points as we plan to do this next year in september or so.
From a previous traveller's diary Stuart Williams was one of 3 post-graduate researchers travelling back to Ethiopia from Northern Kenya that they were researching the Ethopian Wolf and basically showed him the way through. Adrian and Catherine followed him and did their trip in 2002. They hit the Moyale road 70kms from Moyale and their pics of the area looked great.
Unfortunately their email address is no longer active.
I am trying to find information on the route in Northern Kenya from Moyale through the Huri Hills to Kalacha.
I have tried to contact Stuart through a co-worker and am waiting to hear from him, hoping he is reachable and responds. He is still in Ethopia.
If I find out more information I will post it on the forum if there is interest in this.
Also when we do it will make a track of it.
Has anyone been on the road up to Lodwar from southern Kenya? I was wondering what its like re: safefty, bandits etc?

48+ hours with the 920
I finally got my 920 on Tuesday, and I thought that I might post something of my experience with phone so far. First of all, I'm coming off of an iPhone 4 that I've been using for the past two years (and a 3G the two years before that). I did generally enjoy using the iPhone, and never really though about using Android (which my wife has, so I have some experience) because it didn't really appeal to me. My computers have always been Windows though, the flexibility and function fits for me. And though I use Macs every day at work, they have never really grown on me...
When I started hearing about Windows Phone, I was intrigued; but I decided to wait since I started looking in to the platform it was shortly after the Lumia 900s had been released, the rumors and snippets of info about WP8 were already flying though, so I decided to wait. When Nokia announced the 920 is September, I decided that it was my next phone.
Now on to my experience so far:
I have been watching all the news on this phone like a hawk, so when the weight issues kept cropping up I was concerned... When I finally opened the box and took my phone out my first reaction was to smack almost every single review writer out there. Is the 920 185g? Yes. Is it heavy? No. Anvils are heavy, large buckets of water are heavy, stoves are heavy, elevators full of sensationalist bloggers are heavy. The 920 is not heavy. Does it weigh more than the iPhone, and most other phones out there? Yes, undeniably. But seriously, if you're reading a review, and getting nervous about the weight, just get the phone and return it if its "heavy" to you. I also remember someone saying that they could clearly hear the lens moving due to the OIS when they shook it. I think they need to exchange their phone, because something is broken. There's not a peep coming from mine that sounds like a shaking lens (maybe they forgot the install the OIS in mine? Pictures say otherwise...).
The fit in my hand is great, and I don't have the largest hands in the world. It's certainly taking some getting used to though, coming from the iPhone 4. Grabbing it in a natural way will probably take some getting used to with the buttons all aligned on one side they way they are, but once I got used to them I like the "side squeeze" action of hitting the power button than the "top squeeze" action of hitting the iPhone's power button. I occasionally need to do things double handed to work the phone, but for the casual usage I can usually get away with one hand without even thinking twice. This screen is amazing, by the way. Crisp and clean, so much so that many of the 7.5 apps that haven't been upgraded show it severely. No screen lag, and only once or twice have I noticed it drop frame rates during transition animations, but that's all it does is drop the animation slightly, it doesn't seem to affect load time.
I'm still looking around for apps, in particular a good free RSS reader (google reader support would be great). Pandora is still missing for the moment, but I was able to snag a Facebook app, Accuweather, and a few games for free. Speaking of Facebook... The OS integration is great! A coworker messaged me through Facebook this morning, and it popped right up on my phone in the message app, on my iPhone this would have been a horrendous chore (and severely delayed), but on the WP8 checking messages, statuses, and photos is so easy I'm almost never using the actual app. Music plays just fine, and with the exception of Pandora, I'm very happy (Nokia music is a nice substitute for now, as well as the 30 day Xbox music trial).
There are a few... quirks...
Some of the things that bother me are ones that I've heard about. The vibrate on the phone does rattle... but it almost sounds like it's overpowered to me, maybe its fixable with a patch from Nokia? The battery is being a little wonky as well, and Microsoft might need to do a little tuning of how the battery icon at the top updates with the actual percentage (60% still looks like 90-80% to me).
The live tiles sometimes don't update as fast as I'd like them. For instance, I have a live tile battery gauge app and I can't figure out how often it's supposed to update, sometimes it'll say something like 80% for 10-20min, but if I open it up after that time it will refresh the tile down to the "real" amount of charge is. I'm sure this is a balance of updating balance, so as not to tax the battery needlessly, but I wish there were manual controls for tile updates.
Bing lock screen hasn't been updating automatically... I don't know why, if I go and deselect/reselect the option in settings it changes, but I don't wake up each day to it doing it on its own... Minor annoyance, patchable.
The screen's mode that allows for using non-capacitive touch is touchy sometimes, but the rule of thumb seems to be the less "capacitive" the more surface area you need. But it is sensitive enough to easily use finger nails, and I can often scroll and select things by holding my finger just off the screen (almost touching though, very close).
Bluetooth headset has crashed it a couple of times, but I have a headset that is almost 4 years old, so I don't know if newer device are more stable. That being said, it was really easy to pair both the headset and my car (Sync) with the phone.
Also, the back of the phone does get hot... About one inch down from the top, when doing something like heavy downloading, or playing a game for a while, will make it very, very warm. Not enough to bother me, but more than enough to take notice of.
All in all I'm very satisfied. Apps are somewhat hard to find at the moment, but it's only been a couple weeks since launch when developers got their hands on the SDK, so I'll give them time. I still have most of what I need, and nothing I can't live without.
Feel free to ask me any questions about the phone.
Pros: Great phone, responsive, amazing screen, good fit in the hand, not heavy
Cons: Some software glitches, battery control might need tweaking, micro-usb is a little loose (not terrible)

2008 DNC Delegate Selection Rules (FL & MI info)
by Liame, Wed May 28, 2008 at 12:18:49 PM EDT
2008 DNC Delegate Selection Rules
http://a9.g.akamai.net/7/9/8082/v001/dem ocratic1.download.akamai.com/8082/pdfs/2 008delegateselectionrules.pdf
Rule 11.A (page 12 of the document; page 16 pdf)
Rule 20.C.1.a (page 20 of the document, page 24 of pdf)
Rule 20.C.1.b (page 20 of the document, page 24 of pdf)
Rule 9 (page 10 of the document, page 14 of pdf)
Based upon the rules as I read them ---
All the pledged delegates from Florida and Michigan should be seated according to the certified primary votes. This however should include the undecided pledged delegates from Michigan being seated as undecided, and the pledged delegates for Obama in Florida being stripped for his campaign's violation of the no campaigning agreement, provided the committee agrees that such violation occurred and was material. The pledged delegates should only receive half a vote as further sanction for the states' violation of the primary calendar rules (the delegate issue not being resolved until this committee's decision has also been a punishment to these states and to the candidates campaigns' momentum). All super delegates should be seated and receive a full vote (apparently they are differently designated than the pledged and un-pledged delegates although this remains somewhat unclear). The other states, which also violated the calendar rules, should receive a written warning which indicates that in the future one state's violation of the rules will not absolve another state's similar reactionary violation. Any popular vote argument could be made based upon the full, certified popular vote from each state or any other metric, for whatever merit such arguments may or may not be worth.
At best, this would seem to add seventy-five or so pledged delegates to the Clinton campaign and would not likely change the race dynamic. It is also the most correct outcome by the rules as I understand them, and would be unassailable by either campaign and the Clinton campaign in particular.
Please comment on any misunderstanding of the rules.
Please add a more definitive estimate of the Clinton campaign's increase in pledged delegates based upon this solution.

February Madness: The Messy Big Ten
I, for one, much preferred that nice, clean ending featured in the 2009 Big Ten basketball season. Mr. Gasaway on MSU's prospects among the five contenders for the conference title: "For my money Izzo's team is the most interesting member of the Gang of Five in this strange new era. Lucas is hobbled and the Spartans are putatively "reeling," but at the end of the day they're still tied for first and they still have perhaps the easiest remaining schedule of any contender. (Put it this way. One in every three remaining Michigan State games will be played against Penn State.) If MSU can just avoid freaking out unnecessarily and pick up a couple road wins at Happy Valley (Saturday) and Indiana (Tuesday), they'll be in good shape to win this thing, possibly even outright." Good to hear a neutral observer (one who know a little something about Big Ten basketball, no less) conclude much the same thing we did last night.

Hundreds flock to Moulton's iconic crow fair
3:40pm Tuesday 15th July 2014 in News By Gina Bebbington, Chief Reporter
ICONIC crowmen made a grand entrance to a traditional village event when they danced through the streets on Saturday.
Moulton Crow Fair drew hundreds of people who mobbed Main Road playing field to catch a glimpse of the event's famous crow dance.
This is performed by the men of the village, who wear head-to-toe black with yellow beaks and whose identities are never revealed.
The dance is a tradition that is thought to date back to the 1920s when Moultoners were laid off from the salt works and performed at fetes and fairs across the area for prize money.
This year the crows paraded along a bunting bedecked Regent Street behind a vintage motorcycle before performing their dance in the arena.
The fair was full of stalls and games from groups, clubs and organisations in the village as well as headline attractions from the Roman Legion Deva Victrix, Vale Royal Falconry, donkey rides, body zorbing and a vintage vehicle display from Moulton Crows Auto Club.
The event concluded with an evening of live music organised by village group Malt 'n' Music and a firework display.
Clr Allan Aston, Moulton Parish Council chairman, said: "I would like to say how excellent I thought the crow fair was on Saturday.
"I think the attendance was fantastic, a lot higher than I've seen in recent years.
"By the time the crowmen came on there must have been about 600 to 800 people on the field.
"I would officially like to thank the events committee for all their hard work setting it up, our PCSO who spent a considerable amount of time there, parish councillors for attending and manning our stall and a big thank you to everyone involved."

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN, GA (Times Free Press) -- Mark your calendar if you'd like to weigh in on a plan that might open up more of Lookout Mountain's trail system to mountain biking.
That's one of the issues the public will weigh in on when the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park releases a proposed general management plan amendment in February for land it owns on Lookout Mountain.
The federal park's acreage includes trails that wind through the mountain's wooded slopes and Point Park that commemorates the Civil War's famous "Battle Above the Clouds."
"In the last decade, we have had nearly 400 acres of land added," park Superintendent Cathy Cook said.
One of the new park-owned properties is the Williams House, a large, slate-roofed home next to Cravens House. The plan will weigh what to do with it as well as a vacant caretaker's cabin at Cravens House and an empty ranger's residence at Point Park.

Friends (1994)
26 factual errors
Starring: Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry
The One With The Chicken Pox - S2-E23
Factual error: The symptoms (spots, fever, etc) of chicken pox only develop 2 - 3 weeks after exposure to the virus. Therefore, when Ross knew that Ben had chicken pox, Phoebe shouldn't have developed the condition until at least two weeks later, and Ryan certainly shouldn't have developed the disease until the end of his stay (as Phoebe was his only contact with the virus).
The One Where Ross Is Fine - S10-E2
Factual error: If Ross really was holding the sizzling fajitas like that for as long as he was without any gloves, he would be in the emergency room.
The One Where Chandler Doesn't Like Dogs - S7-E8
Factual error: When Monica and Chandler come back from Ross' apartment, Chandler opens the door and Monica appears from stage left when the stairs are stage right.
The One In Vegas, Part 2 - S5-E24
Factual error: When Monica rolls an 8 to buy everyone a steak dinner, the one die is positioned with a 5 and 4 facing the camera (the 5 on the left, and 4 on the right). With the die that way round a 1 is always on top. There is no other way to get the 5 and 4 combo. This means that Monica had a 7 on the other die, That is impossible. And so she did not roll an 8.
The One With The Hypnosis Tape - S3-E18
Factual error: When Pete takes Monica to Rome for the date this would have been impossible as Rome is 6 hours ahead of New York and at least 4/5 hours travel time, assuming they went by Concorde (double that otherwise). They would have had to have left New York early in the morning to make dinner for 8/9 pm in Rome.
The One With The Blind Dates - S9-E14
Factual error: Monica takes an ovulation test to see if she is still ovulating. The ovulation test only works before you ovulate (usually 24 to 36 hrs), to detect the LH surge that comes before you ovulate. Once you ovulate that surge is gone and the test will not work.
The One With Joey's Big Break - S5-E22
Factual error: Joey and Chandler are supposedly crossing the George Washington Bridge but the exterior background viewed from inside the car is very obviously a repeat reel of another bridge, and their conversation goes on for far too long for the actual crossing. And the cutaway shot after Chandler is kicked out of the car shows an aerial view of the Brooklyn Bridge.
Factual error: When Rachel is boarding the plane to Paris, the plane's right hand side is being used for boarding. However in all airlines all over the world, they always use the left side for boarding. The right side is a 'service' side.
The One With All The Rugby - S4-E15
Factual error: Before Ross goes out to play the second half of the rugby game, Emily gives him some tips on how to hurt the other guys. She singles out one of the guys, saying he doesn't wear a cup. These guys are all English players who love rugby. Rugby players would NEVER wear a cup for rugby is more of a grinding sport than hit and miss. These guys would be crazy to wear a cup.
The One With Joey's Big Break - S5-E22
Factual error: In the scene where Joey is supposedly in the Nevada desert, Saquaro cacti are seen in the background indicating that the scene was shot in Arizona or Mexico.
The One With Rachel's Other Sister - S9-E8
Factual error: While watching the parade near the beginning, Chandler gets excited because there's a band from Muskogee, OK, which is supposedly only four hours from Tulsa, where he works. It's actually less than an hour away from Tulsa.
The One With The Triplets - S5-E3
Factual error: Joey always grabs his back when he gets his pain from his kidney stones. This is a classic referral pattern for pain when the stones are in the kidney. However, the doctor says that the kidney stones were too close to the bladder. Stones in the ureters classically refers the pain to the groin area.
The One In Barbados, part 1 - S9-E23
Factual error: Ross' computer is a Powerbook G4 which is totally immune to PC only viruses - Chandler opened up an infected email that contained the Anna Kournikova virus.
The One After Joey And Rachel Kiss - S10-E1
Factual error: The main part of the episode is played out in Chandler & Monica's hotel room (which is situated in between Rachel's and Ross's rooms). The window is opposite the audience and the door on the right. However whenever we see inside Ross's hotel room, he has a window opposite the audience as well. This is impossible as this should be where the hallway is to get to the main door to Chandler & Monica's room. Also, throughout the episode Monica, Chandler & Phoebe all listen through the walls (on either side of their room) to what the other friends are saying, meaning there must be no gap between Ross's and Chandler & Monica's rooms- making the window in his room geographically impossible.
The One With The Ball - S5-E21
Factual error: While Sphynx cats are not generally hypoallergenic, Monica could not have had an allergic reaction because her exposure to the cat was minimal and she didn't touch it.
The One Where Ross Got High - S6-E9
Factual error: A really picky one: When Ross looks at the recipe book, he says Rachel's made 'half a Shepherd's Pie'. Technically, a Shepherd's Pie is made with lamb, whilst it's a Cottage Pie that's made with beef (although the two names are often interchanged).
The One With Rachel's Inadvertent Kiss - S5-E17
Factual error: When Joey tries to find the Hot Girl, he goes up to Ross' apartment and there is a dead end. However, when he next goes there, he manages to run away in that direction.
Factual error: This mistake is from series 6 onwards, with Ross' new apartment: There is an impossibility with Ross' kitchen, but not all of the time. It depends on the layout of the hallway outside his apartment. If the hallway continues along for a bit before going left or right, then the kitchen should stick out. However, when the hallway is a dead end, the kitchen fits ok.
Factual error: When the gang all see the beach house for the first time, it's covered in a layer of sand, which is supposedly left over from a recent flood. Well, if there really had been a flood, there would have been mold on the walls and debris or junk from the outside, and the sand wouldn't have been nice and clean and dry; it would have been moldy. And there would've been a pattern, likely on the walls, of where the water rose up to and where it receded. Not only that, but how did it get in? All of the doors and windows are intact.
The One With Ross's Library Book - S7-E7
Factual error: When Ross shows Chandler the book, he claims it is in "the biggest library on campus" at NYU, which would be Bobst library on Washington Square Park South. Later, in Central Perk, when Ross tells Rachel and Joey about the people "making babies" in front of his book, Joey says, "Wait a minute. Fifth floor, against that back wall?" Bobst's fifth floor is conference rooms only; there are no stacks on that floor. Joey might have been confused, but Ross should know better, being a professor and having just visited that location.

Pours a rather unappealing color (reminds one of a certain bodily fluid) with a sticky 1/2 head that hangs around for awhile. Smells great, kind of like apple juice.
Taste: If you are excpecting a "cider" you're in for a disappointment. This is definately beer, albiet an unusual one. Tastes like a macro light lager infused with apple, a little cinnamon, and maybe honey. Mouthfeel is nice and fairly lively. This an extremly drinkable beer.
I warmed some and dropped in a cinnamon stick and got an entirely different experience. Color same, got a monster head, but oddly not until I added the cinnamon. Some sort of chemical reaction? Smell actually can be a bit much when heated, becomes very kind of sour and pungent.
Tastes more complex, cinnamon makes the apple taste different, more like a cooked apple than a fresh one, honey flavor of the chilled beer gives in to a slight malt character. Pretty nice. I reccomend getting some of that Cinnebon popcorn to go with, pretty indulgent.
Also cooked with this beer and it was great! This beer is lots of fun to play with even if its not exactly a masterpiece. At a pre-tax price of less than 5 dollars a sixer, Lienies has never let me down.

The Leinenkugel's Apple Spice pours from the bottle a clear light golden yellow with a half inch of spritzy, bubbly white head on top. Some nice patchy lacing forms on my glass as the bubbles fall. Aromas of pale grainy maltiness collide with a suprisingly fresh pressed apple aroma along with a big dose of ground cinnamon. Not overpowering...actually quite nice.
First sip brings an interesting mix of sweet cereal grains along with an equally sweet burst of apple cidery flavors. Definetly a sweet fruit beer but it doesn't become cloying. Spicy cinnamon notes run wild all over the place as the brew finishes with a appley grainy huskiness. An interesting collision between apple cider and beer.
Mouthfeel is crisp with a bit of creaminess and steady carbonation throughout. Goes down smooth with both an odd and unique flavor profile. It's nice to see Leinenkugel's throwing something new out there..overall I'd say this is a good fruit beer that captures the holiday season. If you don't like apples & cinnamon or apple cider...stay away...but if you do then give this one a shot.
Upon mulling the rest of my bottle the apple and cinnamon in the nose seems to jump out even more and the carbonation becomes more effervescent. Wow....this is the first beer I've ever warmed up and it's really quite enjoyable. If you pick this one up make sure to try it heated up. I'm glad I ended up picking this up out of sheer curiousity!

Medium greenish yellow, slight chill haze, small compact head of white color. Laces pretty well on the glass. Its aromatic and the smell travels, but its a lot like a sweet cider or even Apple Jacks cereal. Mouthfeel is lighter, carbonation prickly. A reasonable apple flavor starts out the flavor profile but its immediately undercut by a wallop of a sugary cinnamon note that's almost like a stool being kicked out from under it. Deteriorates from there, finishes with odd scratchy tones, pencil lead, and an anti-perspirant flakey flavor. Drank this one cold, I can't imagine the spice characters getting better on mulling, but I suppose it could be boiled down as a marinade for pork. This stuff is selling very well locally.

Appears honey golden hued with a white nice sized head leaves fine lacing down my pint. Aroma has a nice tart apple and cinnammon tones along with herbal hops and cereal grains. Taste is a bit ciderish in nature but that's excusable if there is actual apples or even apple extract involved in the brewing of this beer. To me the flavor came off pretty natural not too syrupy extract cloying factors along with the apple spice there is an evident grain sweetness and some herbal hop flavors with mild bitterness. Mouthfeel is lighter bodied carbonation is a bit spritzy stays on the palate a bit of residual sugars cause some slight syrupy textures. Drinkability, this isn't a beer to grab a sixer of but if you want to try apple in a beer it's interesting and I must say that Leine's pulls it off decently.

a dark golden color to it with a mild bit of carbonation seen running through it; smells a bit like a hard cider; maybe one of the english ones; taste is a sweet apple hint to it with bits of cinnamon flavor in it; taste is allright personally i think it is a bit watery for a beer; i could see it being something good to drink during thanksgiving since it gives one that fall flavors but it is very light; mouthfeel is pretty good as one feels light carbonation but nothing too harsh but i think a lot of that has to do with it being watery

(Served in an American pint glass)
A- This beer has a pale straw yellow body that is very thin and translucent. There is a thin white cloudy head that is supported by a big carbonation of giant bubbles.
S- The note of sweet apples and perfurmy cinnamon is very sweet and smells like apple cinnamon candles.
T- This beer has a sweet cinnamon apple hard candy flavor wit a faint raw grain note as it warms. There is a very soft hop bitterness in the finish that blends with the hard candy note. As it warms there is more of a apple juice flavor and a faint cinnamon red hot candy note.
M- This beer has a light mouthfeel with a fizzy finish that is pretty clean at the end.
D- This beer has a very artificial smell and flavor with not a lot of other flavors from malt or hops.

A cloudy pour more in line with a wheat beer. Goes to show all apple ciders are not clear. Fair head retention for this type.
Definite apple cider, spice, cinnamon aroma. Let the Holiday season begin. This one needs to be smelled by the fireplace.
Not disappointed with the taste after the sensory experience. One of these days will have to drink heated and with a stick of cinnamon.
Light to medium feel in the mouth. Would probably improve with warmth and then could be contemplated while sitting around the fire spinning stories.
Would not want to consume several of these in one sitting but then we should drink responsibly anyhow. More of an occasion beer.

Apple juice colored brew with a one finger head. Some white lace coats the glass.
Smells strongly of sour apples, cinnamon, cardamon, nutmeg, and allspice. The apple smell is mainly an artificial sour apple pucker scent. Not a whole lot like real apples, but smells very good. A nice late-autumn scent.
Tastes like delicious apple cider with loads of cinnamon and the other spices present in the nose. Somehow reminds me of AppleJacks cereal. The only down side is that the sugary artificial apple flavor can be a bit too sweet.
Mouthfeel is sugary, syrupy, and a bit overwhelmingly candy-like.
Drinkability suffers from this overly sweet and sticky character. Not bad especially for the price. A nice novelty beer for the fall.

Picked up a sixer for $5.50 at Copps grocery store here in Madison. Can't be much worse than their Berry Weiss, I like apples, and saw that my comrade battlekow enjoyed it, so I figured I'd give it a go.
Pours an eerie cloudy white-yellow almost green, with a bubbly white head. Smell is baked, spiced apples, go figure, and not much else. This isn't a bad thing though, as it's not an artificial flavor. Not quite as fresh as New Glarus' Apple Ale, but surprisingly good from Leine's. Taste picks up with sweet apple juice and a solid cinnamon kick, maybe some caramel malt in the backbone. Again, surprisingly authentic and fresh-tasting. They claim to use a ton (2000 lbs) of apples and some 60 lbs of cinnamon in each batch and these two things certainly dominate the palate. Mouthfeel is bitingly crisp like sparkling cider. This is a sweet fruit beer, so most BAs would probably turn their noses, but it remains quite drinkable.
I tried their suggestion on the box and warmed up a bottle and found hot beer to be confoundingly tasty - like warm apple cider as you may imagine. The warm carbonation along with the alcohol has a strange biting and warming quality that would limit my consumption to one warm serving, but certainly worth trying if you have a few bottles of the stuff. It's less than $6/sixer around here, so what's your excuse?

Very sweet, candy-apple taste. Really not very beerlike. This one doubles as a kind of ultra-sweet cider - maybe even sweeter than some of those sugary, naaasty 'fruit' malt-beverages. Smells like Glade air freshener and rather tastes like it, too. Easily makes a home at the bottom of the beer-wagon !

Once again, Leinie's has brought out an interesting and drinkable beer that's fairly unique. It looks like apple juice and smells like sour apples (I hope that acetylaldehyde is added, and not just a product of poor brewing practice - joking, of course)! It's gently sweet, very apple-like, lightly malty, fairly tart, and just slightly bitter. The cinnamon comes and goes within the flavor, but always appears in the finish, but not necessarily in a good way. The cinnamon is what makes it unique though, otherwise it'd just be another apple ale. The fine bubbled carbonation is lightly crisp. It's refreshing, not overly sweet... tart/sweet... sweet/tart.... very apple-like as previously mentioned. I, personally, wouldn't want to drink more than one, but I could easily see it gaining a kind of cult-status. Worth trying to see.

12oz single, Riley's, consumed while watching the bears beat up on the rams during our weekly bears group meeting
appearance: consumed from the bottle but its clear watery body was not terribly missed
smell: distinctly and obviously apple cider spiked with some nice cinnamon...not much else on the nose, and thats fine
taste; for what it is, this thing is perefectly fine...syrupy apple cider taste with a nice cinnamon touch, finishes with some more ordinary lager/grain flavors than initially evident
mouthfeel: thin
drinkability: good

Pours slightly cloudy, with a very faint yellow color.
Acidic cider scent with a very faint cinnamon backdrop.
Cloying sweet dominates the flavor. Creamy cinnamon end. What the fuck.
Highly carbonated and way artificially full bodied, too sweet to session.

Holy Appletini batman, this is a beer? High points for creativity for those 97 people who care, but man, this is a beer? This tastes more like apple cider than strongbow!!! I'm honestly not even sure how to review this beer. If you want to know taste and mouthfeel all you have to do is carbonate some good apple cider (the brown kind) and throw in a ton of cinnamon and there ya go. Wow. Personally,I didn't like it, it was just too out there, but I see how someone could dig it. Particularly if that someone were an attractive 16 year old . . . Hmmm . . . .yesss . . . .
Cool to try, not worth the buy.

A - Pours slightly more amber than a traditional pale ale, clear, and no active carbonation. Fairly dense white foam head rose about 1-inch tall, but dissipated quickly leaving a light covering.
S - Smells rich of apple cider and spice. Almost exactly like apple cider with a very light bread undertone. Makes my mouth water!
T - Wow! Apple cider all the way. Very sweet. Pretty much all you taste in the beginning, followed by a light bread finish and a very clean aftertaste.
M - Light carbonation. Refreshing and light feeling. Close to medium body.
D - I really think this is too sweet. Really overkill on the apple cider. It's very good, if this is supposed to be like a wine cooler, but I think it would eventually get too sweet. My wife loves it. This is a really good beer for date nights with the girl who doesn't like "beer".

The appearance definitely was of a wheat beer and the aroma was overwhelmingly apple. I almost thought this was a cider. It smnelled very good, with hints of cinnamon and a very light malt. The tase was fresh and crisp. Sweet apples and cinnamon. It wasn't very cider-like, but more like a soda or beer cooler. The mouthfeel was agin crisp and carbonated. Drinkability is only average, since I really think this is more a cooler than a beer.

A novelty that i'm not all that impressed with.
I must say, it's worth a try if you enjoy ciders.
Fizzy yellow appearance, unremarkable with a typical macro look to it.
Aroma was dead on green apple jolly ranchers. Artificial yes, but with an edge of light cider yeast. Cinnamon is hard to pull out, but a spice is there once tasted. Tastes like an apple-cinnamon soda. Really no malt character whatsoever, and very little to signify that it's "beer" you are drinking, other than the label stating "flavored beer".
Fizzy and light, but the novelty wore off halfway through the bottle. Do yourself a favor, and try authentic cider instead.

Had one at a buddy's house while playing poker. Served in an imperial pint glass.
Appearance -- Light, hazy, gold color with a nice, clean white head.
Smell -- Initial smell is pleasant . . . sweet apples. Take another whiff and it begins to smell like Apple Pucker. The smell is the most interesting aspect of this beer, but I wasn't overly impressed due to the artificial Pucker scent.
Taste -- Way too sweet and artificial tasting. From what I've read, the brewery uses fresh Wisconsin apples. That may be, but the taste doesn't feel natural to me at all. Berry Weiss is by far a superior tasting fruit beer. No comparison.
Mouthfeel -- Not bad. Medium feel to it. You can chew on it.
Drinkability -- I'm happy I had the opportunity to try this beer and happy that I didn't have to spend my own money to try it. The appearance and smell are intriguing, but they grow old real quick. Taste is artificial and overly sweet. It's kind of what I expected. I don't plan on having this beer again. If given the chance, I'd have to respectfully decline.

2.9/5 rDev -7.1%
very strange beer. the apple and cinnamon flavors are so aggressive that you can hardly tell you're drinking a beer until its finish, when you get a macro lager taste with a slight bite. as soon as you open the bottle, a rush of apple candy smell comes at you. the mouthfeel feels a bit artificial -- somewhat on the syrupy side. because of this, i was expecting the flavor to build and build in my mouth, which would've been intolerable, but that didn't happen. all things considered though, it's worth a try. i was able to easily knock back a few of them, still finding it enjoyable. it feels a little bit too much like a novelty to be able to drink all the time, but i could definitely see enjoying it again.

I poured this 12 oz. bottle into a wheat glass. I have no idea how long it has been sitting in my buddy's fridge, but I suspect longer than two years. Yikes.
A: decent amber color with a thick of-white head, the cap and lacing are still apparent.
S: apple pie.
T: apple pie.
M: light-bodied, watery to somewhat silky, crisp finish. Surprisingly not awful.
D: I do not like to drink apple pie. The considerable age on this beer actually did not seem to affect it that much. I am not heartbroken they discontinued this beer.

(Ed: Bump -- Chris)
The Cold War: America and the Soviet Union in a military arms race with each other. The same could be said for the modern day landscape of college athletics. Schools are investing more and more money into their facilities to give their teams an edge over their competition. Michigan and Michigan State are no exception.
Since and Michigan State has become relevant in football and Michigan in basketball (sigh) the two schools have important matchups in both football and basketball. They have to compete with each other on a year to year basis for recruits. Michigan State adds a sweet practice facility onto the Breslin Center and Michigan builds a nicer one and additionally renovates the Crisler Center. Michigan builds a giant high definition scoreboard into one end zone in the Big House, State builds a bigger scoreboard…and attaches two more on the opposite side. It's an arms race.
For us to keep this up, we need money to pay for all this, and so does Michigan. Let's see how we can continue to compete with the instate rivals. For private endowments in 2011 here's how we stacked up with Michigan.
Yikes that's not good. Michigan gets more than five times the donations than Michigan State does. Some of these donations go towards the athletic department. The athletic department then invests the money into their teams: here are both the school's athletic expenses from 2008 to 2012.
Since both Universities are state funded institutions they release their financial statements every year. According to their statements both schools spent similar amount of money on athletics in 2008 through 2010. Then Michigan skyrockets off the chart and leaves Michigan State behind. As far as facility expenses go:
These expenses include overhead, construction, and debt that goes into their athletic facilities. As we can see the facilities expenses graph looks a lot like the overall athletic expenses graph. Michigan's has spent a lot more in the past few years (probably due to the Crisler center renovations) and they will probably continue to spend more due to their pledge to donate 250 million to non-revenue sports.
Michigan gets the most private endowments out of any public university. They can spend more than us it's just reality. But we have to keep spending money on our facilities to keep up. At the Michigan vs. Michigan State basketball game in Ann Arbor this year I couldn't help but notice they kept playing this long advertisement on the jumbotron that targeted alumni to donate to the university. I couldn't help but think that MSU didn't do that this year. If there's one thing Michigan knows how to do its raise money. We should have a similar advertisement run during basketball games. We used to run that "Championships through Memberships" campaign during basketball games. Dantonio would come on the jumbotron and say how important it was that State has enough money to win football games. Maybe the 7-6 season cancelled the campaign but I thought the campaign was a gold mine. It really gave fans the feeling they are important to the program which they are. Regardless of what campaign we run we should try to appeal to alumni to donate to the Spartan fund during sporting events, it can't hurt.
State can't outspend Michigan. But we don't have to. Nothing's more fun than beating the rich spoiled kid down the block in any kind of sport. Michigan State has made some good investments in their athletic programs and even though it's not as Michigan has its still enough to sustain success on the field and keep this in state rivalry even sided.

Pre-Production Underway On Dreamfall: The Longest Journey Sequel
Posted on Thursday, November 1 @ 08:48:08 Eastern by Alex_Osborn
I love a game with a great story and characters, so whenever I hear someone bring up Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, I'm filled with pangs of guilt because I still haven't gotten around to playing Funcom's highly regarded adventure. Now it looks like I'll really have to make an effort to play it sooner rather than later, as a followup is currently in pre-production at Red Thread Games.
This relatively new development studio was founded by Ragnar Tørnquist, the creator of The Longest Journey, so if any studio is capable of making a new entry, it's Red Thread. Tørnquist shared his excitement on the new project, saying:
Unfortunately, all we know at this point is that the game will be titled Dreamfall Chapters and that more news will be on the way in the coming months. As such, keep it locked to GameRevolution for future updates on this promising new title from Funcom.

Will Sixers go big man in draft?
- Written by Donald Hunt
- Published in Basketball
The Philadelphia 76ers will have the No. 15th pick in the first round of the NBA draft on June 28. The Sixers also have two picks in the second round at No. 45 and No. 54.
The Sixers will be looking to add a player or two to next year's roster. The team is coming off a season where they finished in the eighth spot in the NBA Eastern Conference. However, the Sixers made an impressive run in the postseason, losing to the Boston Celtics in seven games in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
The Sixers could use a dominant big man at center or a strong player in the post. They may be able to draft a couple of big men with two of their picks. The Sixers have some power forwards and centers that will be available when their slot comes in the draft. Here are some players the Sixers could focus on with the draft just a few weeks away.
Terrence Jones, Kentucky, 6-foot-9, 252 pounds:
Jones was a key player on Kentucky's national championship team. He averaged 12.5 points and 7.0 rebounds a game. He took up a lot of space around the basket. Jones can score inside. He complimented Anthony Davis, who will be the No. 1 pick in the draft. He's a solid defender.
Arnett Moultrie, Mississippi State, 6-foot-10, 230 pounds:
Moultrie has great size and length. He can put the ball on the floor. He can take it to the basket. He averaged 15.8 points and 10.6 rebounds a game. He has good range on his shot. He's a good rebounder.
Jared Sullinger, Ohio State, 6-foot-9, 280 pounds:
Sullinger is a big body. He knows how to get position around the basket. He was a dominant inside player in the Big Ten Conference. He averaged 17.6 points and 9.3 rebounds a game. Whenever Ohio State needed a big basket, they went inside to Sullinger. He's a strong inside player.
John Henson, North Carolina, 6-foot-11, 220 pounds:
Henson has the height and length to play center and power forward. He averaged 13.8 points and 10.1 rebounds a game. Henson is a big man who can run the floor. He has a nice touch from 10 to 12 feet away from the basket. He's fundamentally sound. He plays hard at both ends of the floor.
Meyers Leonard, Illinois, 7-foot-1, 245 pounds:
Leonard is one of the true centers in the draft. He averaged 13.6 points and 8.2 rebounds a game. He does a good job of going to the boards. Leonard takes good shots in the post. Leonard has the height and size most teams are looking for at this position.
Andrew Nicholson, St. Bonaventure, 6-foot-9, 225 pounds:
Nicholson looks like a late first round pick. He averaged 18.4 points and 8.5 rebounds a game. Nicholson can score inside as well as outside. He played extremely well in the Atlantic 10 Conference tournament and the NCAA tournament. He's a good all-around player.
Kyle O'Quinn, Norfolk State, 6-foot-10, 240 pounds:
O'Quinn opened up a lot of eyes in the NCAA tournament leading Norfolk State to a huge upset over Missouri. He averaged 15.9 points and 10.4 rebounds a game. O'Quinn was named the MEAC Player of the Year. He had a terrific showing in the Portsmouth Invitational Camp. He has already worked out for the Sixers. O'Quinn's stock seems to be rising.

ANDOVER — Soaring bacteria levels has forced the temporary closure of Pomps Pond.
The pond on Abbot Street has been closed since Wednesday after a regularly conducted test showed the town resource recorded more than seven times the state limit of bacteria in the water.
While seasonal pond closings are par for the course in New England in early- to mid-August, Pomps got hit with closing notices early this year because of a perfect alignment of poor water conditions, according to town Health Director Tom Carbone.
"It's a function of the heat and the weather," Carbone said.
There are usually two main causes of high bacteria levels — lots of swimmers and lots of rain washing anything on the ground into the water. High heat, like that experienced recently, can help speed up growth as well, according to Carbone.
So how high were the bacteria levels?
According to weekly test results, the pond water went from having just 20 colonies per 100 milliliters of water on July 15 to 1,700 colonies per 100 milliliters on July 22 — more than seven times the state limit. The state requires bacteria levels to be no greater than 235 colonies per milliliter.
Town Manager Reginald "Buzz" Stapczynski has drawn heat for recently closing Pomps Pond to out-of-towners. Asked whether a restriction on activity at the pond all season long could have helped keep bacteria levels down, Carbone said, "It's possible. I can't say (overuse) was the case here."
However, "the more people we put into the resource, the harder nature has to work to keep it clean," Carbone added.
After the spike early this week, bacteria levels appear to be coming back down to the state requirement. Carbone said the test on Wednesday showed bacteria levels at 360 colonies per 100 milliliters of water.
Although still above the legal limit, that is nearly a fifth of what it was two days earlier and might be a sign that the beach will re-open soon, Carbone said.

It seems that Strikeforce has maybe two or three big shows left before the axe falls, so where does that leave the Heavyweight GP? Here are my random thoughts.
We have two big players left Barnett and Cormier. A step behind is Silva, Werdum and Kharitonov. The UFC is the final goal for all of these men. ( Maybe not Kharitonov. I get the feeling he would be happy doing his own thing and not be tied into a Zuffa contract.) Cormier is hurt and as far as I know a return date for him has not been given. SOOO... here we go.
The GP final should be scheduled ASAP. Take Cormier out due to injury just like they did Overeem. Cormier is riding a huge win over Silva. Let him heal and bring him into the UFC.
Let Silva and Werdum go at it again, the winner goes to the UFC. After his poor showing in the Overeem fight Werdum needs to show he deserves another shot at the UFC by beating a quality opponent. Silva needs to prove that he is a top 10 HW. Even if he lost I think Bigfoot would still get a UFC spot, I don't know about Werdum.
For GP final let Barnett fight Griggs. Griggs is an alternate so there is justification for giving him the shot. Barnett will most likely win. This gives the UFC a ready made contender to challange for the HW title. Also, Griggs will not suffer from losing the fight, and would probably still get a shot at the UFC for stepping up when he was needed.
By going this route the UFC has three top fighters to bring into the mix, and a lower tier guy to keep things fresh.
Here are some potential matchs:
Barnett (as the GP winner ) vs. The Champ. I didnt put a name here because it could be almost anyone. The Overeem v Lesner winner will get the next shot, and then Barnett.
Cormier vs. Carwin.
Silva vs. Mir. If Mir beats Big Nog. OR if Nog wins then..
Silva vs. Carwin. and Cormier vs. Nog.
Kharitonov vs. the Kongo/Mitrione winner.
Griggs vs. Hunt.
Just my random thoughts...thanks for reading.

With the new year, there are all sorts of resolutions, so many of which center around eating better.  I'm in that camp, not surprisingly.  I know what I need to do.  My biggest issue is that I need to eat more fruits and veggies and find ways that are fun to make them.  The Raw Food Detox: Revitalize and Rejuvenate With These Delicious Low-calorie Recipes to Help You Lose Weight and Improve Your Energy Levels, by Anya Ladra of Raw Fairies in the UK, is a great start to this.
Raw Food Detox is a cookbook, but it's more than that. Â I'm fascinated by the concept of raw foods because the less processed the better in my world. Â But I'm new to it. Â And it's intimidating. Â Anya Ladra has put together a great introductory textbook that shows you how to go through a detox if you so choose – with three variations – that includes what to eat and when. Â Given that much of it requires eating every two or so hours, that part isn't for me. Â But I'll take what I can.
I appreciate that the introduction of the book includes a listing of all the "powerhouse" ingredients that are used throughout the book and their benefits. Â She also includes an index in the back of the book with suggestions on where to find some of the more unusual ingredients. Â One thing I appreciate is that while doing a raw diet can certainly assist in weight loss, that isn't the focus of the book. Â It's far more on the increase in energy and promotion of better sleep patterns and improvements in skin quality. Â I can get behind that.
The book contains a ton of recipes for raw foods that I would likely never have thought of on my own. Â I strongly appreciate that below each recipe is a note of what equipment is needed. Â While I have a spiralizer (which is generally optional) and a blender, I don't have a dehydrator, and I'm not likely to go buy one at the moment. Â I know which recipes I can and cannot make with a quick skim.
And a lot of the recipes are fascinating.  I would never have thought to make a mango smoother with turmeric, but it sounds delicious.  The full color photos of each recipe provide a great visual and also help me decide if it is a dish I want to prepare or not.  The sweet potato and courgette (zucchini) salad with arame and bean sprouts is one I'll be adding to my regular repertoire, although I'll buy my sprouts rather than sprouting the beans myself.  I made the avocado and tomato salad with red pepper chili dressing, and it's amazing.  It isn't just salads though.  There are appetizers and main dishes and even desserts.  The brownie squares  are going on my list of items to make.
Personally, I love that I have a cookbook filled with items that I know are dairy free, so Little Miss can eat them without concern. Â They are also gluten free, but many rely on nuts – because you need protein – so if you have a nut allergy in the house, this will be limiting, though there are still plenty of recipes that don't include nuts.
You can enter to win a copy for yourself! Just leave a comment below, by following the instructions in the rafflecopter.
In the interest of disclosure, Michelle received a copy of the book for review. Â All opinions remain her own.
Written by 5 Minutes for Books contributor Michelle who loves spending time in the kitchen and is always striving to find a healthier way for herself and her two children.  Her husband is on his own.  See what she's been cooking up on her blog Honest & Truly! or follow along on Twitter where she is also @HonestAndTruly.

MADISON (WKOW) -- More than 14,000 formerly-secret Boy Scout documents on men suspected of child sex abuse are now public.
27 of the cases were reported in Wisconsin.
The so-called "perversion files", covering 1965 to 1985, were released with the approval of the Oregon Supreme Court after a case against the Boy Scouts where a scoutmaster sexually abused a scout.
Lawyers who wanted the information released say the files protected child molesters.
"What we want as the takeaway from this is that organizations understand how pedophiles operate, how child molesters infiltrate organizations. There are a lot of myths out there and unfortunately we know the lessons still have to be learned," said lead plaintiff attorney Paul Mones.
The Boy Scouts of America released a statement apologizing to victims and their families for instances where scoutmasters failed to protect or inflicted harm on children.

82 GOP votes for House minimum wage bill
by skeptic06, Wed Jan 10, 2007 at 12:41:09 PM EST
The bill (HR 2) passed at 1710 ET by the score of 315 to 116: Dems voted all 233, the GOP were split more or less down the middle.
I assume it was a clean bill (THOMAS is way behind).
Which raises the question, Why, if so many GOP reps are willing to vote for a clean bill, does the Dem Senate leadership think it needs to rush to a compromise bill with tax sweeteners (Jonathan's piece)?
Are the House GOP more centrist than their Senate counterparts all of a sudden? (That wasn't the impression when they were under the DeLay lash!)

5 Reasons Why You Should Buy...: "A Tribe Called Quest: Innovation & Legacies: "It's Not Going To Break Your Wallet. You're Paying To Hear Some J Dilla..."
Tuesday, Feb 28, 2012 12:05AM
[With "A Tribe Called Quest: Innovation & Legacies - A Movement in Four Parts" New York City showcase kicking off this week, J Dilla Ensemble founder Brian "Raydar" Ellis gives you five reasons to hit the Big Apple from March 1-3.]
1. Harlem Nights
Reason number one is because this is Harlem. It's Harlem Stage. This is the cornerstone of Black-American music. Especially music-related live instrumentation. The whole Harlem Renaissance is there. This is continuing the legacy that's been established for almost a hundred years already. That alone is what I feel is very important.
2. It's A Party, It's A Party
Number two, the bottom line is it's going to be great music. It's just dope people giving it their all on the stage and it's a party at the same time. It's not just spectators. A lot of people have this obession with hip-hop where they think, "Hey, I paid for my tickets and I'm supposed to sit down and watch you entertain me." Hip-hop has always been a party. It came from a party, a block party perspective. That's what we're going to make it. It's going to be great music, it's going to be interaction. It's a party. That's a big reason.
3. Like Never Before
The third reason is because you're going to see incredibly skilled musicians taking on a new perspective of records that you may or may not know. We're going to be doing some different interpretations of these records that you woudln't get from just sitting down and listening. We're going to take it into a few different directions. Especially with J. Dilla, we're going to be digging into some of the things he sampled. People may already have a version of A Tribe Called Quest and Dilla records which is great, but we're gonna show them another version. They're going to hear songs they loved and where they came from.
4. Money In The Bank
Another reason is because this isn't going to break your wallet. It's not going to break your wallet. You're paying to hear some J. Dilla, live instruments and more. To see everything that you're going to see, it doesn't normally cost what you're going to pay. For the money, I think this is a steal.
5. Hip Hop Honors
The last reason is because it's J Dilla and Tribe. Anyone who knows their hip-hop, they know that their music has not been appreciated to the level it should. I know there have been documentaries and all of that stuff but it's the kind of hip-hop and music that doesn't get the spotlight. For everyone who argues about the radio playing the same songs, this is a chance for you to put your money where your mouth is and support the culture.
You Decide. Will you go check out "A Tribe Called Quest: Innovation & Legacies - A Movement in Four Parts?"
For tickets/event information, just click here.
On the heels of a major Producers Guild Award for the documentary Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest -Harlem Stage, in conjunction with Revive Music, will celebrate the impact, importance and influence of the pioneering crew with A Tribe Called Quest: Innovation and Legacies - A Movement in Four Parts March 1-3 at Harlem Stage. This four part series features live performances, dance events and a free humanities event headlined by a panel of hip-hop scholars, journalists and artists.
SOHH/Harlem Stage Contest:
Want your own set of tickets? Here's what you gotta do:
1- Follow @sohh & @sohhdotcom on Twitter.
Beginning around 1 PM EST, check out SOHH's Twitter accounts for questions based on Brian "Rydar" Ellis'' five reasons you should check out the three-day event. Make sure when you answer the question, you include the hashtag #SOHHHarlemStage in your response. G'luck!

Albany- Hundreds of children spent the morning clapping, counting, and singing along with the stars of Sesame Street Live.
All eyes are fixed on the furry characters as the monsters became musicians. But of course everyone has their favorite.
"I like Cookie Monster the best, because I like cookies," says Jannah Brown.
Even the older fans have their favorite.
"I watched it when I was little and I'm encouraging all my grandchildren to watch it," says Teen Smith. "I'm partial to Elmo."
"I like Cookie Monster," laughs Joy Brown.
"We like Elmo, but we like Journey to Ernie and Big Bird also," admits Ivy Howard.
For decades Sesame Street characters have been entertaining and educating Americans.
"They try to get in valuable life lessons and that's a little more parent friendly I think and the show's are written on two levels, a level for the children and a level for the parents," says Tim Smutz, Company Manager.
It's that versatility that has kept the characters who live on Sesame Street in our neighborhoods for 33 years.
The monsters will be performing all weekend at the Albany Civic Center. Tickets are still available for both the 2 PM and 5:30 PM shows Saturday and Sunday.

Fast Folk Musical Magazine was a combination of print magazine and audio recording published in New York City from 1982 to 1997. Its principal purpose was to serve as an outlet for folk singer/songwriters in the release of their recordings. This collection features both established performers (Richie Havens singing "Stop" and Gabriel Yacoub singing "Je Resterai Ici") and relatively unknown musicians (David Ray singing "Cab Fare and Perfume" and Judith Zweiman singing "Heart on Ice"). Two songs of note are Rod MacDonald's "Man with the Hired Face", a political song clearly aimed at President Ronald Reagan, and Left Field's "Chiller Theatre", a song about the whereabouts of an errant boyfriend. A 20 page facsimile of the magazine is included with the recording.
