My favorite hard use knife is a carbon fiber Military and a Ti prybar Weighs less than many "hard use" folders and will take more abuse
The Spydercos I have that get the hardest use are Salt folders and they take it very well.

Trust those who seek the truth, but doubt those who say they've found it.
Gold Grillz are a multimillion dollar business, with consistent consumer demand over the last decade, worn by both the poor and the extremely wealthy. Arguably more of them are being sold than hard use folders. I find them both equally compelling; I might even argue that the Gold Grillz are superior because they would allow you to reproduce with certain classes of women, which cannot be said for the hard use folders.
There are tons of widely popular products that make no logical sense, and the fact of their popularity does not create a logic of it's own. Unless you're in the hard use, gold grillz business.
Why? Because why not? I never understood why some people almost seem offended to this kind of idea. What is it about stepping outside the box that freaks people out so much? A long time ago someone came up with the idea of a folding knife and I bet everyone he knew called him crazy and gave him huge speeches about how fixed blades and pry bars made more sense, yet here we are today hundreds of years later still improving on that design. Why should we stop improving something just because something else can do the same thing? Again we would still be riding horses if we never looked into the possibility of taking things to the next level.

Trust those who seek the truth, but doubt those who say they've found it.
The answer is, that's not really an improvement, it's a lateral side step that reduces the performance of the teeth, for a dubious goal of impressing people more.
The hard use folder follows a similar course. It's not an improvement on the folding knife if in order to achieve a theoretical increase in "hard useability" strength, actual weight is added and actual cutting performance is retracted.
Interesting idea. I see it more as a way to attempt to make the knife abuse-proof, though. A super flexible handle and pivot will prevent you from putting nearly as much force on the blade, reducing the chances that it will break. I personally hate the idea of my knife behaving unpredictably. I'm also in the "hard use folder" head scratching camp. I consider the FRN Stretch to be an overbuilt folder, let alone some of the beefier Spydies or the even beefier folding boat-anchors put out by certain competitors ... anything that weighs even 4 ounces just doesn't get much time in my pocket.
Let me get this straight, are you attacking our choices? It is obvious that you are not looking for information but rather that you are making your own reasons for not wanting such and such a folder and that you are trying to impose your preferences on us. If you search you could find the reasons given for hard use folders. Whether you accept such reasons and purposes is entirely up to you but your disingenuous attacks on the preferences of others is becoming obvious and your so called reason for asking is wearing thin.
Bottom line is, what the heck business is it of yours what kinds of knives we prefer? We don't impose our preferences on you, give us the same respect.

There is nothing wrong with doing it just for the sake of doing it of course, but you are then adding cost/complexity just to meet a label which has no functional purpose. That would however not exactly be in line with Spyderco's mission statement it seems.
Anyway you want a reason, here's the best one. Because I want it. Simple as that. Why do you need a multi tool when you have a whole box of individual tools? Why do you need a sports car when a Prius gets better mileage? Why do you need different color shirts when they all just cover your body? Why do you cut or style your hair?
You want an analogy? OK here's one. Hard use folders are to regular folders, as work boots are to walking shoes. Why do you need boots when shoes do the same thing as walking shoes? Maybe because your environment and use for it says so.

I would love to see a titanium integral compression lock Para 2 with CPM-3V. I think that would be a folder that would take damn near anything you would throw at it.
I am really curious about this now and want to know more about how tough existing hard use knives are.
What are considered the strongest existing locks/frames? I assume ti framelocks are at or near the top, but I am fairly ignorant about rugged folders in general. I have been buying folders more based on blade shape, ergos, steel, etc...
How do folders usually fail in general? Is the pivot/lock always the weak link or will the blade snap first in some cases? Can a weak link be purposely engineered to fail first at a certain level of "abuse" and be easy repairable? For example, washers that give out under a certian load and cause a bunch of play, but are simple to replace and return the knife to it's previous strength, tolerances.

Trust those who seek the truth, but doubt those who say they've found it.
By comparison, I've offered quite a bit of information on why they are not necessary, and how every currently suggested hard use task (prying and batoning) could be easily handled by smaller, more effective tools that weigh less than half of what a hard use folder typically weighs, and could easily be carried by anyone wearing pants.
There's plenty of additional 3rd party information showing that knives labeled "hard use" a) weigh significantly more than other knives and b) have reduced cutting performance. Meanwhile, there's plenty of evidence showing regular knives being used extremely hard, and remaining perfectly serviceable.
You've accused me of being disingenuous twice, but to quote Princess Bride, "I do not think that word means what you think it means." Disingenuous means "not candid or sincere, typically by pretending that one knows less about something than one really does." If anything, I've been too sincere in expressing my beliefs.

BTW, I know exactly what disingenuous means and you are pretending to not know the reasons but rather demand reasons from the posters in this thread. The reasons have been already stated ad nauseum in previous threads, you just don't accept them.
The information you offered has already been offered countless times and yet us knuckle draggers still have a soft spot for them. I'm guessing that you have also already heard all the arguments for a hard use folder but it's your prerogative not to accept them. What you are doing is badgering us for an answer and yet whatever answer we give will never satisfy you.
Again, if you can't find what you need to find, maybe the discussion for a hard use knife can go on without you cluttering up the thread especially since you profess to have no use for them.
How about you just go on your merry way and we go on ours because from your expressed opinion you will never be convinced by any answer we can give and by the same token, you will never convince us. What will happen is you just go on sh***ing on this thread in your crusade to impose your preferences.

Trust those who seek the truth, but doubt those who say they've found it.
OK...so the point of this was mainly to talk about the potential of a pivot design that would flex before it breaks and a lock design that could adjust along with it to compensate. We've lost sight of that.
My thing with hard use folders is that 1) I love the engineering that goes into anything built to resist breaking, whether it's car engine parts or knives. I've always been the type to ask why not when people say why. Of course there are trade offs...a knife that excels at slicing is at a far end of a spectrum while the hard use blade you can pry a door off the hinges with lives on the other end of that same spectrum. 2) I just enjoy exploring the limits of things. I don't have a need to drag race other than the enjoyment I get out of it. If you ask a road course guy he would tell you that drag racing is too focused on going in a straight line and what's the point, while others think it's as easy as standing on the gas and pointing the car in one direction but that's far from the truth.
I own a Wildsteer WX folder. It was designed as a tool for bow hunters to use for prying broad head arrows out of trees. It's a folder that was actually designed to pry with, at the pivot no less. It is a ridiculous tank of a knife, it weighs something like 10oz, isn't the most ergonomic and doesn't slice as well as a Caly 3. All that aside, it's still a folder, it has a marvelous lock design that is crazy and unique, and it's honestly kind of a pain in the ass to use BUT I still enjoy it, maybe if for no other reason than morbid curiosity. I've chopped, batoned, pryed, stabbed, you name it with this thing and it still locks up like a vault door. It isn't something I'd EDC, but then neither is a shotgun and I have plenty of fun with those too lol.
Official plea to Sal: Can we PLEASE get a DLC Yojimbo 2? PLEASE!!?
If the goal was to create a carry friendly (5oz or under,) folding pryable knife with flex for getting arrows out of trees, I think the best bet would be a 4mm thick H1 blade with a Pac Salt tip, with thicker FRN handles and liners made out a spring steel with similar properties to street sweeper bristles, which are incredibly tough but flexible. In theory that would allow a decent amount of lateral flex.
The thread is titled "Idea for a hard use folder" not "Should a knife be used for hard use/What is hard use". I too am from the camp that believes that if you are using your knife that hard that you should be using a different tool but that is not what the OP wanted to discuss. I cannot believe how fast someone derailed this thread and how little the original topic was discussed.
Anywho, what about the idea of an engineered weak link. Maybe design the pivot to fail at a point just before any other part of the knife would fail. I do a lot of jeeping and this is an idea used in trucks so that a part which is cheaper/easier to replace breaks before a part that is more expensive/harder to replace. Trying to repair a truck on the trail can be a challenge and if the part that breaks is small, cheap and easy to replace then you can back to wheeling faster. "Weak links" in a driveshaft are one example. http://image.fourwheeler.com/f/91766...aft_cupler.jpg
Maybe engineer a pivot to break just before any other part of the knife and design the handle to hold one or two spare pivots and a small tool to replace them. My concern would be the safety issues that come from designing a knife to break on purpose at a given point and the liability that would come from that.
My solution to hard use is to buy a Rat1 folder because it is $30 and if it breaks it breaks and at least I didn't break my Cruwear millie which is much more expensive. I am a cheapo so my solution is based on economics. I can't bring myself to abuse a $150-$200 knife but that is just me and I know other people do buy expensive hard use knives to use very hard.

The Commercial-News
---- — CHAMPAIGN — There was no official checklist of things the Illinois Fighting Illini wanted to get done on Saturday at Memorial Stadium against Miami (Ohio).
But, if the team had made one, the Illini (3-1) probably accomplished most everything on it during their 50-14 win over RedHawks with maybe a few exceptions — one, in particular.
"They got 14 points, and we wanted a shutout,'' said senior linebacker Jonathan Brown, who had nine tackles to lead Illinois for the fourth straight game. "We were in position to get, and we know the mistakes that we made''
Miami (0-4) scored twice in the final 17 minutes, 9 seconds as Illinois had mass substitutions after building a 43-0 lead. But both Brown and sophomore defensive back V'Angelo Bentley saw the kind of improvement the defensive unit was striving for after the 34-24 loss to Washington, two weeks ago.
"We've been working on our tackling for the last two weeks,'' Bentley said. "I thought our tackling got better and we are doing better of recognizing formations. We are understanding what the offense is trying to do to our defense.''
And still, not getting the shutout was something that bothered the Illinois defense.
"It's very frustrating, because we have pride in our ourselves on getting the shutout,'' Bentley added. "We have pride in ourselves on playing good defense. We didn't get a takeaway today, but we got some three-and-outs. So, we will continue working on creating more turnovers.''
While the defense can definitely see areas that need improvement, most people would be hard pressed to find too many areas of concern with the Illini offense this season.
Quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase continued his very impressive season with five touchdown passes — more than he had in every game during the 2012 season. Four of those scoring strikes came during a 29-point second quarter, setting a new school record.
"I can't say enough about what Nathan Scheelhaase has done,'' Illinois coach Tim Beckman said. "It's not just about throwing touchdown passes, it's about coming in on Mondays and over-studying so that he can have the best opportunity to be successful.
"Nathan has been buying into the system. He grasps it and he loves doing it.''
Scheelhaase, who has thrown for 1,162 yards already this season to go along with 12 touchdowns, quickly deflects any praise on him to his offensive teammates.
"The guys out wide are really giving me confidence in what they are able to do, being in the right position and make plays when they have a chance,'' he said. "That makes you comfortable in the pocket that those guys are going to make plays.''
But on Saturday it wasn't the wide receivers making the majority of the plays in the Illinois passing game.
Instead, it was the tight ends.
The trio of Matt LaCosse, Jon Davis and Evan Wilson caught six passes for 82 yards, but four of those receptions were touchdown grabs. A year ago, the Illini tight ends had just three touchdown receptions for the entire season. LaCosse finished with a career-high 68 receiving yards and his first two career touchdown catches.
"I felt like those guys were getting open,'' Scheelhaase said. "We've known their depth all year. They are not just guys that can run 5-yard routes to can only catch dump passes. They are guys that can make plays downfield, they can move around.
"When you got guys like that, we need to get them involved.''
The other key component in the Illinois offense on Saturday was the running back duo of Josh Ferguson and Donovonn Young. They combined for 151 rushing yards and Ferguson, the FBS leader in receiving yards for a running back, had five receptions for 77 yards and a touchdown.
"We have to be successful with both Josh and Donovonn running the football and taking the ball on the perimeter,'' said Beckman, referring to the rest of the year. "I'm happy with the way we move forward. And now the real time comes, your conference play. That's what you work for and prepare for every year.''
And Scheelhaase believes the play of the tight ends on Saturday will bode well for Illinois.
"We are going to need those guys come Big Ten time,'' he said. "There will be times we will need to get big and we need to have those guys in there to run block and catch passes. We've seen our receiver group step up. We've seen those running backs make plays. I think seeing the tight end group make a whole lot of plays will present another threat for teams to worry about.''
Illinois, which eclipsed last year's win total (2) on Saturday, will enter Big Ten Conference play next week with the team's first road game of the year at Nebraska.
"It's definitely a better feeling than we had last year,'' said Brown referring to being 3-1 after going 2-10. "But the main thing I'm thinking about now is getting into Big Ten Play. This is when the real season starts.
"We have been taking it week-by-week, but getting into the conference play is when you get to see teams like Ohio State, Wisconsin and of course, we've got Nebraska coming up.''
The Fighting Illini will be looking to snap a 14-game conference losing streak next Saturday at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln Neb. The last Big Ten victory for Illinois was a 41-20 win at Indiana's Memorial Stadium on Oct. 8, 2011, during the Ron Zook era.
"We see the upside of what we can have,'' Bentley said. "We know we are going into the Big Ten Conference, which is tough, so we have to come in and prepare every week. We just need to learn the game and make the plays when they come.''
With a 36-0 halftime lead, Illinois got the opportunity to play some of its backups and younger players in the second half.
Redshirt freshman running back Devin Church scored his first collegiate touchdown with a 12-yard run in the third quarter, giving Illinois 43-0 lead.
Freshman quarterback Aaron Bailey, who scored the game's final touchdown on a 6-yard run in the fourth quarter, completed his first collegiate pass to Justin Hardee. He was 1-of-3 for 3 yards after entering Saturday's game with six rushing attempts for 20 yards.
Additionally, kicker Ryan Frain, of Indianapolis Scecina, was 2-for-2 on extra points in the second half.
NOTES — The 50 points scored by Illinois were the most since scoring 56 in a win over South Dakota State. It also gave the Fighting Illini 161 points scored in its first four games, eclipsing the previous record of 158 during the 1914 season, when Illinois won both the Big Ten and National Title ... Even with three kneel downs in the final minutes, Illinois was still able to finish with 601 yards of total offense. It's the first time that Illinois surpassed the 600-yard mark since Nov. 3, 2007. Additionally, the 394 yards in the first half is the fourth-highest total in a half for Illinois and the third-most for a first half...

CATEGORIES Drama, Deals, Movies, CinematicalOK, stay with me here. The Dogs of Babel, by Carolyn Parkhurst, is a novel about a man whose wife dies under what he considers mysterious circumstances, though the police ruled it an accident. The only witness to her death was the couple's dog. The bereaved husband's solution? Teach the dog to speak so he can hear the pooch's eyewitness account. And it's not a comedy, it's a drama!
I read the book a few years ago and thought it was a terrific examination of the grieving process, obsession, and learning to face reality. I had no problem buying the basic premise of a guy wanting to teach his dog to speak. But how will all this translate to the big screen? That question is about to be answered, as Variety reports a film adaptation has been fast-tracked.
The director will be John Crowley, a Tony-nominated stage director who also made 2003's Intermission (starring Colin Farrell), and the current Miramax release Boy A. The screenplay is being written by Jamie Linden, who wrote We Are Marshall and the upcoming Nicholas Sparks adaptation Dear John. The Dogs of Babel has some complex subject matter that's going to be hard to pull off in a visual medium, and I'm guessing the Nicholas Sparks book, um, doesn't -- so we'll see how Linden handles the transition. Crowley seems to be a capable director, at any rate, and Boy A (about a man who committed a murder as a child being released from prison) deals with sensitive subjects, too.
Anyone else read Dogs of Babel? What do you think of a movie version? Can they pull it off? If your dog could speak, what would it say to you? Mine would say, "I wish you didn't walk around the apartment naked so much." My dog is a total bitch (in the zoological sense).

Roasted Chickpea Snack
These highly seasoned roasted chickpeas are the best of both worlds: crunchy and salty and packed with sustaining protein. And you likely have all the ingredients for them right now, right in your very own pantry. They are tastily addictive, but also wholesome and incredibly satisfying.
Hands-On Time: less than 5 minutes
Ready In: 1 hour
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained, rinsed, drained again, and spread on paper towels to dry
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or half as much table salt (more if there's none in your curry powder)
- Heat the oven to 400ºF. Heat the oil in a small pan over low heat, then add the curry and garlic powders, and stir until fragrant.
- Turn off the heat, pour in the chickpeas, and stir gently with a rubber spatula until they're coated with the oil and spice.
- Spread them in a foil-lined rimmed baking pan and bake for forty-five minutes to an hour, shaking the pan every ten minutes or so. When they're done, some will be brown and crunchy and some will be golden and still a bit soft in the middle and, ideally, none will be totally black.
*Ingredient Tips
If curry isn't your seasoning, try something else: just the garlic powder, maybe, or some smoked paprika and celery salt. However, curry is pretty appealing to most kids we know.

Horton USTA/ITA Community Service Award Recipient
Monday, November 22, 2004
Requires Adobe Flash
FORT MYERS, Fla – Florida Gulf Coast University men's tennis coach J. Webb Horton has been selected as the national winner of the USTA/ITA Community Service Award. He will be honored on December 12 at the ITA Coaches Convention at the Doral Golf Resort and Spa in Miami, during the ITA Membership and Awards Banquet. The USTA/ITA Community Service Award honors an ITA coach for significant contributions in developing community-based tennis programs through community centers, schools, parks, community tennis associations, inner city, suburban or rural programs. Horton will receive his award from Alan Schwartz, USTA Chairman of the Board and President, and Jon Vegosen, Vice Chair of the USTA Collegiate Committee. "J. Webb is a great example of college tennis coaches who give back to their communities and campuses and our hope is that over these next years many other varsity coaches will try to emulate the great work they are doing," ITA Executive Director David A Benjamin said. "The ITA and USTA strongly believe that community service programs are extremely important for today's college coach to become involved in and these awards help highlight the efforts of those coaches who have." Horton has been instrumental in numerous programs benefiting the Southwest Florida area. A sampling of some of the programs and events Horton, who is in his fourth year as FGCU men's coach, has participated in or hosted are: the USTA's First Serve Program, which benefits at-risk minority children (ages 4-14); the 2004 USA Deaf Tennis Olympic Trials; the Lee County Community Tennis Association's (LCCTA) USA Tennis Month Rally; USA School Tennis Carnivals; "Tennis on the Move" events to encourage recreational tennis participation; and a USA Team Tennis Rallyball Event for area children. Horton also serves on the Board of Directors for the LCCTA and is a member of the USA Tennis Florida Diversity Task Force. An assistant athletic director at FGCU, he is also involved with several campus programs and committees. FGCU hosted the ITA National Small College Championships for this first time this past October. Horton is also the award recipient for the USA Tennis Florida Section. This is the second year for these awards. The national winners were selected from a group of USTA Sectional winners determined this fall (and listed below).

'The Pyramid' Kicks Off With Yvette Nicole Brown, Danny Pudi

- Read more
"The Pyramid" has been a popular game show through its many incarnations since first premiering in 1973. This version, hosted by Mike Richards, doesn't stray very far from the show's original format. Two contestants each have a celebrity partner, and a partner provides clues to seven mystery words, leaving the contestant to guess those words before time runs out. The game continues for three rounds with the highest-scoring pair at the end of the game advancing to the bonus round, called the Winner's Circle, for a chance to win up to $25,000. In the Winner's Circle, the clue giver must get the partner to identify the category (ex: types of sandwiches) by providing words and phrases that fit. If six categories are identified correctly in one minute or less, the contestant wins the grand prize, which ranges from $10,000 to $25,000, depending on the contestant's performance in the main game. Two games are played each episode, resulting in a potential $50,000 payday for one contestant.

this is giving me a headache trying to follow the posts.
sounds like that guitar is a beginner guitar, and if its had tuners replaced, youll probably get less for it. i dunno keep it instead.
floyd roses, as do all tremelos, work by tightening or loosening the string. the springs are there to counteract the tension. different ways to put the springs on, ie /|\ or ||| or whatever the fuck, its just different ways of displacing the balance. /|\ will be a more even diffused tension, where as ||| will be prone to local differences.
inside the back of your RG or similar, youll see the springs, with one end attached to the block, and the other end attached to a plate, which is held inplace by two screws. turning these screws by only like 1/4 turn, will make your bridge raise or lower its angle. do 'em little by little and do 'em both the same. once you got the angle right, then you need to get the height right. theres a little allen key hole in the posts, where the trem pivots(the only actual contact with the guitar), turning these will raise or lower the bridge.
while your doing that, make sure you remember two things,
1. every time you make any adjustment, however small, your guitar will go out of tune, therefore, the strings will be the wrong tension. retune everytime you adjust anything.
2. theres a bloke in your local guitar shop who will do it for you for pretty cheap.
to the bloke whose strings go out of tune, make sure your strings are completely worn in before you tighten the nut, and then make sure its perfect in tune and fairly tight on the nut. obviously you should make sure its tight at the other end (saddle).
if it still goes out of tune, then either your trem setup is fucked, or your buying shit strings.
"The complexity of the penguins' lifestyle testifies to a Divine Creator," said one commentator on Christian Answers. "To think that natural selection or even the penguins themselves could come up with the idea to migrate miles and miles multiple times each year without their partner or their offspring is a bit insulting to my intellect. How great is our God!"

TOKYO (AP) — Japan Airlines has reported a fuel leak in a Boeing 787 Dreamliner for the second time in a week amid a U.S. safety review of the aircraft.
Narita International Airport outside of Tokyo says JAL reported a 100-liter fuel leak in a 787 during an inspection Sunday. The aircraft reportedly was the same one that had a fuel leak in Boston last week.
Japan's All Nippon Airways has experienced a fuel leak, a cockpit window crack and a computer malfunctioning in its 787s, causing cancelations of several domestic flights.
The U.S. government said Friday the 787 is safe to fly, though it launched a probe last week into the cause of various problems.
The 787 is Boeing's newest and most high-tech airliner. Japanese airlines are among the top 787 customers.

Read Me Rhymes 7'x7"
hard back image wrap version
De Felts, Felts, Felts
A children's book of poems, illustrated with photographs, that evoke a sense of joyful curiosity about the natural world. Many of the poems developed around actual experiences from childhood.Perfect for ages 2-8
À propos de l'auteur
I am one of three Felts women who crafted this book of poems. The poems' author was my husband's mother who loved nature and wrote often about the bugs, animals, and natural world that her children so loved. I first began reading Irma's poems to my kindergarten class I was teaching in the early 70's, and after I became interested in Photography, I started teaming my images with her poems. It's been a goal for years to eventually coral the poems and images into a book. My daughter, a writer and editor, has helped bring all this together.

Diabetes is REVERSIBLE, Part II
|November 16, 2011
|Posted by Christina under Healing
A wonderful HealthyCosmos reader yesterday shared this article entitled "Preventing a Diabetes Tsunami" in response to my own article about diabetes being curable. After having read it, I wanted to dedicate another post to our discussion of diabetes.
I like that this article points out that "significant lifestyle changes" with no use even of medication can completely change one's ability to regulate blood glucose levels. That being said, my wish is that people would stop seeing eating a healthy vegan diet as such a significant and radical change, especially when the alternative is lifelong medication. What greatly upsets me is that almost everyone is given their prescriptions without even being told that there is another completely natural option that will make them healthier in all aspects of their life. It's ultimately a patient's prerogative to decide on his or her own treatment, but it is the responsibility of the medical system and its providers to share ALL avenues available so that patients are well-informed. It is their well-being and their lives at stake, after all.
This article talks a lot about obesity and its co-morbidity with diabetes, but the way in which it does so once again highlights the traditional medical focus on treating the symptoms after the fact. What is necessary, and what I am trying to do by writing for this website, is to educate people and give them the proper information that they can then use to be healthier and happier. We all know obesity is a major epidemic, but you can't just tell all obese people to be healthier, to simply eat less and to exercise more. This is too vague and is obviously ineffective given the still rapidly increasing rates. We need to outline HOW to be healthier and WHAT it means to be healthy. From the start there needs to be in place an honest educational system, one that is in the best interest of the people and not the pharmaceutical industry, dairy industry, beef industry, etc., as is currently the case. This would help those already obese, but it would also prevent many others from becoming obese because they would have the knowledge that soda and fast food and beef and milk are unhealthy and cannot be consumed all the time with no repercussions, even despite our unethically being bombarded with commercials telling us otherwise.
Finally, I want to comment on the last part of the article. In the "Fact File," it states:
"Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are chronic, lifelong conditions that require careful monitoring and control. Uncontrolled high blood sugar levels can cause long-term damage to various organs and tissues, including the heart and blood vessels (potential heart attack and stro
ke), kidneys (potential for kidney failure), nerves (possible limb amputations) and eyes (potential for loss of vision). – Sources: International Diabetes Federation and Novo Nordisk"
Notice here that the International Diabetes Federation itself states that Diabetes I and II are chronic, lifelong conditions. I just want to point out that diabetes does not have to be a chronic, lifelong condition, and that it can, in fact, be entirely reversed. Yes, this requires lifestyle changes, but look at what diabetes can lead to: "Uncontrolled high blood sugar levels can cause long-term damage to various organs and tissues, including the heart and blood vessels (potential heart attack and stroke), kidneys (potential for kidney failure), nerves (possible limb amputations) and eyes (potential for loss of vision)." Isn't it worth it not just to try to manage this illness, but to get rid of it, to risk no longer the long-term damage to your organs and tissues?
Truth be told, these necessary lifestyle changes are not limited to those with diabetes. Almost everyone in modern society requires significant lifestyle changes because we are literally eating and stressing ourselves into our graves. A look at the soaring rates of disease confirm this. What we need is to be clearly educated about health. Until major industries become more ethical (i.e. less emphasis on profits and more emphasis on the truth about their products and social welfare), what we need are people who we can rely on to help us navigate through the often confusing and conflicting information constantly thrown at us about what is healthy. I don't see the pharmaceutical industry backing down anytime soon, and I can understand the fact that nobody wants to take a financial hit in a world so driven by money, and that the whole point of business is to make a profit, but it is tremendously upsetting to see people being continuously misinformed and misguided, especially when it leads to their dealing with debilitating illness.
So, in this context, let me point out once again that diabetes can be reversed. It likely requires a big lifestyle change (after all, your body is sending you signals that you need one), but it is so incredibly worth it! Imagine your life with no insulin shots or without taking handfuls of pills 2 or 3 times a day. That can be your reality. Do some research, please feel free to ask me any questions you may have, and consult your doctor if you're already on medications (but be prepared with your research because they are trained to believe that the only line of treatment is medication–maybe even give him or her some resources to check out, like the movie Simply Raw, or some of Dr. Gabriel Cousens' books so that they can inform other patients of alternative, more effective, and natural options).

Government won't be the greenest ever by turning off its lights says WDM 14.05.10
David Cameron has announced today that his government will be the 'greenest government' ever. We welcome the sentiment but we are sceptical and said that 'history will judge this government on its green credentials by its policies to cut the UK's emissions dramatically and getting a fair international climate deal, not by turning off its lights at night.' :Source World Development Movement
Deborah Doane, director of the World Development Movement said: "The Conservative/Liberal Democrat coalition has brought some progress for achieving climate justice. Whilst it's welcome that central government has pledged to cut its emissions by 10 per cent, history will judge this government on its green credentials by its policies to cut the UK's emissions dramatically and getting a fair international climate deal, not by turning off its lights at night. It doesn't take the scale of the problem seriously, any suggestion that blue and yellow means green government are premature because there are so many unanswered questions about the policies.
"The Conservative/Liberal Democrat coalition has brought some campaign successes for climate justice. But it has also left a lot of unanswered questions, and media reports suggesting that blue and yellow = green government seem potentially premature."
The World Development Movement believes that a closer reading and deeper probing into the policies is vital before an informed conclusion can be made. Here's our analysis:
The good news - planes
WDM has been calling for a tax on planes rather than passengers, and cancellation of any new runways at Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted and both have been delivered. This is an excellent achievement for campaigners from WDM and elsewhere. But, what about airport expansion outside London?
The news that sounds good but too soon to tell - coal
The coalition government say they will bring in an emissions performance standard for new power stations. The could be a key policy for stopping new coal power stations from being built. But it depends on the detail. Before the election the Liberal Democrats were in favour of quite a good emissions performance standard, whilst the Conservatives proposal was weak. Which will the new government go with?
Worrying – so many questions, so few answers – global climate deal
There is nothing in the agreement about international climate change negotiations. This is worrying as the whole Conservative manifesto also ignored its approach to international agreements.
Will the UK provide compensation to developing countries for the climate damage we have caused? Will this be given as loans, as under Labour, or grants? The Liberal Democrats said climate money should go through the UN rather than the World Bank, whilst the Conservatives fully supported money going through the World Bank. Which will now happen? The Liberal Democrats said climate money should be additional to aid. The Conservatives did not. Which will now happen? These issues are vital to getting a just and effective international climate deal, and need to be at the top of Chris Huhne's in tray.
Inconclusive – the Green Investment Bank + RBS + tar sands investment
Both parties favour the setting up of a Green Investment Bank to boost lending to renewables industry and to create green jobs in the UK. This is very welcome, but with the Royal Bank of Scotland draining the public purse and pouring the finance into high carbon projects – it is a case of throwing good money after bad. The Lib Dem policy is to end the use of public money channelled through RBS to support tar sands projects – this needs to be pushed forward and get agreement from the Conservatives.
Final Musings
The Liberal Democrats say they have gained lots of concessions on climate change from the Conservatives. But it is not yet that clear cut. We welcome the impact the Liberal Democrats have had on climate change policy, but Chris Huhne will need to go a lot further in government. To see how Conservatives and Liberal Democrats compared on climate changes before the election, see our 'Vote for justice' report.

A Pennsylvania couple has been convicted on charges of murder for the deaths of their children over the past few years due to not allowing them medical attention when they were sick because of their religious values. They were sentenced to 3 1/2 to 7 years in prison. After the sentencing, the judge commented that they "killed your two children, not God, not your church, not religious devotion, but you did and your failure to take them to seek treatment."

I love this wall-mounted coat rack! Beautiful color and very sturdy. We have it hanging over the landing on the entry to our house and it works perfectly for our 4 person family!

A good purchase
Sue from Milwaukee, WI
I bought this to go in my narrow hallway from my kitchen to garage. I also got a matching Wooden Mallet Coat Rack with brass hooks that we placed lower to place the kids bags and jackets on. I couldn't find this quality when I looked at the local stores so I was happy to find it on this site, and it was great to be able to pick out the color I needed to match my kitchen. I think the slats on top are fine. It does it's job of holding hats and gloves on it. I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking a nice rack for a small space.

Wednesday night I was at Turner Field to watch the hometown team play baseball.
It's a great place to watch a game. Built in 1996, the home of the Braves is a nice blend of traditional styling and state-of-the-art features. One of those modern features is the Diamond Vision HD LED screen that is perched high above center field. Debuting in 2005, this monstrosity is 71 feet tall by 79 feet wide, weighs 50 tons, and contains 50 million LED lights. It's said to be the largest outdoor screen in the world, even making an appearance in the Guiness Book of World Records.
Kinda makes that 80-inch flat-panel TV in your Man Cave look more like a razor blade. And it makes my 36-inch tube TV look like a, well, like a depressing reminder of my lack of an 80-inch flat-panel TV.
In a culture whose obsession with television is borderline worship, a 5,600 square foot TV is like the entertainment equivalent of Hagia Sophia.
So, obviously, the Big Screen is one of the most enjoyable aspects of the Turner Field experience. Let's be honest, baseball can be a slow-moving, low-scoring event. You need some extracurricular entertainment at times to help bridge the gap between exciting moments. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your perspective) The Wave, as viable in-game fun, is on life support. Sure, a Wave still develops every game. But, for the most part, nobody's heart is in it anymore. People don't stand up. They just hold their hands up in the air as the wave rolls by and yell, "whooooo, ooooohh…whatever." Or maybe that's just me.
The only other in-game entertainment that generates as much excitement as the Big Screen is the Home Depot Tool Race. This segment used to be an animated feature on the screen, but now it's a group of four real people dressed in tool costumes racing around half of the warning track in the outfield. It's mildly amusing. Unless you're a fan of the drill. He never wins. He's clumsy and goofy and always falls down, taking one of the other runners with him. What a tool.
Outside of that minor diversion, the Big Screen is the center of attention between innings. And people will do almost anything to get on it. Seriously, almost anything. Painting the body, dancing, screaming, waving, jumping, slipping the cameraman twenty bucks. Or maybe that's just me (who am I kidding? I spent that twenty bucks on a large Diet Coke.)
And then there are the usual segments that are a part of every game. Here are the best features…
- The Dance Party. You watch this with the same mentality that you watch the auditions of American Idol. You're not really tuning in for the talented ones. Watching people who can really dance is nice. Watching little kids boogie is amusing. But the jackpot is people who can't dance. They fall into two categories: people who have had too much to drink and so they think they can dance. And people who haven't had anything to drink at all, but still think they can dance. The former is hilarious. The latter is hilarious and a little sad. But, hey, you know what they say. In life there are people who dance, people who don't dance, and people who dance on an enormous outdoor TV.
- Kiss Cam. There are several different variations of this classic. Cute Couple Kiss Cam (awwwww). We're Family And That's Just Awkward Kiss Cam (move along, cameraman, move along). Stuck In The Friend Zone And Never Going To Get A Kiss Cam (usually the cameraman returns to this duo a few times in an effort to wear down the girl's defenses). PG-13 Make Out Kiss Cam (get a room). Senior Citizen Couple Who Hasn't Kissed In At Least 3 Years Kiss Cam (the older gentleman is usually quite grateful for the opportunity).
- The Cap Shuffle Game. 3 caps. 1 of them has a picture hiding in it. Follow with your eyes and try to keep them on the cap that has the picture underneath it. Fairly simple concept. But it becomes a fascinating lesson in human psychology. Every person in that stadium follows the cap that the picture is under. And after all of the maneuvering, twisting, turning, and zig-zagging, we're almost always sure that we know exactly which hat is the correct one. On Wednesday night, I purposefully didn't watch the screen. I wanted to see if there was a majority opinion on the correct cap, and if that majority opinion turned out to be right. At the end of the scramble, everyone in the whole stadium seemed to be shouting the same number. TWO!!!!! TWO!!!! TWO!!!! People were making the peace sign all over the park. Even the official contestant guessed Cap 2. It had to be 2, right? No way the whole crowd could be wrong. It's a gargantuan screen! It was 1. The contestant, and the whole crowd, was stunned. I was reminded that we tend to be people who believe what we see. And if we see it on TV, well, then it has to be true.
Maybe we should dance more and worry about what people think less. Maybe we should be more affectionate with our loved ones and less guarded. Maybe seeing isn't always believing. And maybe TV isn't the best place to find truth.
Even if it's a TV the size of Texas.

Bioelectrics procedures that allow the precise delivery of drugs or genes through the membrane walls of individual cells have received a new, fundamental boost from researchers associated with Old Dominion University and the Frank Reidy Research Center for Bioelectrics.
Gene Therapy Weekly and NewsRx.com took note in early November of recent advances in electroporative transport model development reported by a team led by Ravindra Joshi, ODU professor of electrical and computer engineering and a Reidy Center researcher.
The Joshi article-"Microscopic calculations of local lipid membrane permittivities and diffusion coefficients for application to electroporation analyses"-appeared in late summer in Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications.
Karl Schoenbach, director of the Reidy Center and Batten Endowed Chair in Bioelectrics Engineering, elevated ODU to the top ranks of bioelectrics research during the last decade. The field, essentially, involves the interaction of electric fields with biological systems, and one of the most promising avenues uses the fields to penetrate cell membranes to allow delivery of drugs or genes.
Joshi and his colleagues now have refined the calculations that can be employed to model this electroporation process. "Membrane transport in this context of poration is often based on continuum approaches utilizing macroscopic parameters," the authors note. "Here, a molecular dynamics scheme is used for a more rigorous and physically realistic evaluation."
"This modeling work in Dr. Joshi's group is truly cutting-edge," said Schoenbach. "This is documented by his success in placing his manuscripts into prestigious journals. We are fortunate to have him and his team working on topics that complement our experimental work at the Reidy Center. The synergistic effect between experimentalists and modelers working together in bioelectrics is absolutely essential for success in this new field of research."
Co-authors with Joshi of the recent article are Schoenbach and Viswanadham Sridhara, a doctoral student in ODU's Frank Batten College of Engineering and Technology. The Reidy Center is a joint operation of ODU and Eastern Virginia Medical School.

The Stone Barn makes wood-fired gourmet pizza outside of Nelson, Wisconsin. The Stone Barn is open from 5-9 PM on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and is closed in the winter months. They also feature an antique store and bakery.
We ate recently at The Stone Barn for the first time, and I have slightly mixed reactions.
To start, let me say that the pizza we ordered was delicious. Pizzas at The Stone Barn are made in a custom wood-fired oven. I love wood-fired pizza, and these were some of the best I've ever had - very thin crust, perfectly baked, with a pleasant hint of wood smoke. We had a pizza based on garlic-flavored olive oil, with mozarella, parmesan, and feta cheeses, with the addition of the Stone Barn's home-made sausage. This was all very tasty, and had almost enough garlic flavor for my tastes, which is saying a lot. I really couldn't be happier with the taste of the pizza, and we enjoyed it along with a glass of a very good, inexpensive wine from the somewhat limited selection of wines (and beers) available.
So why mixed reactions? It mostly has to do with the ambiance of the restaurant. It is located outside of Nelson, in a stunning natural setting (perhaps it seems stunning to me because it looks a lot like our farm, but if anything more beautifully rural). The restaurant is in a restored stone foundation barn, which is a great idea.
However, the restored part of the barn that houses the restaurant proper has some flavor of a stone-walled pole barn. Not unpleasant, but a little more industrial than I'd expected. On the other hand, the outside dining area enclosed by the remnants of the rest of the barn is extremely pleasant, and also houses the restaurant's abundant herb garden, which is one of the things that makes the pizzas memorable.
Service was not at all what I'd expected - it's much more like what I'd expect at a local pizza joint than a place offering artisanal pizza and bread. You order your pizza at the bar, along with your drinks, and then find a spot to sit. The wine and beer are served in plastic glasses, and you eat the pizza off of paper plates with plastic utensils. The pizza is served to your table in the ubiquitous cardboard pizza box.
I had a very nice time at the restaurant, but being served food this good in such an off-hand manner is somewhat jarring. I am bringing this up not to discourage you from visiting The Stone Barn, but to prepare you for the fact that you will be getting lovely (but limited) food selections in a pleasant setting, but served in a way that seems very out of place with what your mouth will tell you to expect.
Pizza $15-20 for a generous wafer-thin crust wood-fired pizza - plenty for two.
No salads or other side dishes available, although they do have occasional non-pizza specials. Dessert is ice cream cones filled with Chocolate Shoppe ice cream from Madison.
Wines by the glass or bottle (very reasonable but limited selection) and multiple beers by the bottle.
Indoor and outdoor (sheltered) seating.

Hello Everyone,
Both Peppery and chili mean hot? Is there any differences between them?
'Peppery' is an adjective and 'chili' is a noun.
There is no adjectival form of chili - food flavoured with this plant is usually described as fierce, very hot or hot.
Red and green bell-peppers are not chilis, although also capsicums.

Will Apple have to make a Metro version of Itunes??
So think about it.... regardless of wether or not windows 8 is a huge success or a mild success, in about 6 months Windows * will be on millions of computers/tablets. Many of those computers will be running windows RT which does not support 3rd party desktop style application.
So Apple will be in a tough spot: Do we build a metro version of Itunes for the (hopefully) millions of people on Windows RT or do we just say screw you and not build it?
I think they will have to build it because the iPhone is so tied to iTunes. Many people will get a Windows RT tablet and wonder why they can't sync their iPhone with it.
My guess is that Apple will hold out until the sales of Windows RT are proven, but in the end, they are going to have to build a Metro version of iTunes.
What do you all think??

Riverside Avenue in Burlington is back open Sunday morning after a gas leak shut it down late Saturday night.
A tree fell out of the woods and hit the gas tank, causing the leak. Fire officials say it only took them about 5-10 minutes to contain it, but the road was closed for about an hour and a half as a precaution until they were sure the tank was safe.

Our Partners
We Day is about inspiring a generation to act. It's about enabling young people to lead the movement of our time.
We Day is a free educational event that is made possible by a community of committed sponsors, supporters and partners who share our belief in the power of youth and in the idealism that a better world is possible.
We Day is made possible through the generous support of a community of corporate partners and sponsors.
Inspiring youth to change the world: that's our goal with We Day.
You can't buy a ticket to We Day—you earn it through volunteerism and service. From 2012 to 2013 alone, We Day inspired:
- 4.5 million hours of youth volunteerism
- Youth to raise $11 million for hundreds of local and international causes.
Through the generosity of a community of sponsors, We Day events are made possible at no cost to schools, ensuring that We Day is a barrier-free, full-day educational experience.
What does sponsorship of We Day and programs look like?
Our partnerships with the corporate community take many forms: programming support, donated services, fundraising or in-kind contributions. Free The Children's corporate sponsors carry the costs required to make We Day possible. Moreover, literally thousands of dedicated corporate employees volunteer at We Day, every year. They serve as set-up crew, greeters, ushers, hosts, seating coordinators, talent hosts and so much more!
Our partnerships allow for diversified and stable sources of funding which ensure dynamic programming at no cost to students, educators and guests.
We have different types of partnerships, which include the following:
Corporate Partners
- Help keep We Day and other programs free for educators and youth
- Build our capacity through research, development and invest in new areas of programming
- Support logistics, in-kind and volunteer engagement to ensure efficiencies and keep administrative costs low
- Expand our reach in engaging more people and carry programming to new markets
Program Partners
- Provide us with access to content, talent and resources that enrich the content of We Day events
- Contribute expertise to our program delivery
Media Partners
- Help carry news from We Day and about social issues to communities across Canada
- Provide us with a variety of opportunities that range from editorial content to pro bono ad space
Educational Partners
- Educational partners are key to the success of the We Day movement. Free The Children is proud to partner with a number of school boards and districts for We Act, a program that expands the reach and impact of We Day more than ever before.
Our partners are helping us make We Day and our year-long engagement programs possible.See Our Spotlight on Partners
More than a One-day Event
But We Day isn't just a one-day event. Partnerships with corporate sponsors also help kick-start a year-long program, of which We Day is a part, that educators carry out in their classrooms to educate, engage and empower their students in active citizenship—a program that transforms youth behaviour and positively impacts school environments.
Impact of We Day
In the past few years, the reach and impact of We Day has grown exponentially. Corporate sponsors, foundations and funding partners (including provincial governments) have made it possible for Free The Children to bring this transformational event to students and teachers who then participate in the yearlong program that helps activate the inspiration from We Day to meaningful action. Thanks to the support of our generous sponsors, tens of thousands of students and teachers attend We Day free of charge.
The impact on youth who attend We Day is direct and meaningful. Research from a Mission Measurement 2010/2011 study shows that:
|are empowered to make a meaningful difference.
|feel passionate about a social justice issue.
|believe they can be a leader of social change.
|say their students were inspired by We Day to take action immediately.
|agreed that their students learned a lot about social justice issues.
|found that We Day provided them with a renewed sense of inspiration for teaching.
Through partnerships with our corporate and government partners, many of whom extend their support beyond We Day, it has further been possible to award scholarships for young people to participate in transformative, life-changing leadership camps and volunteer trips. As a result of participation in these programs, 93% of young people intend to play a leadership role in social justice activities in their community.
As well, 85% of educators, in a recent We Day study, shared that they have developed relationships with students they would not have otherwise. The impacts of our sponsors go beyond merely providing financial support; our partnerships are facilitating transformation in young people around the world.

Trypanosoma sp in peripheral blood.
Trypanosomiasis which is spread by tsetse flies in a rather interesting way! After the fly bites someone, it defecates near the bite site and that is where this protozoan parasite can be found. The bite is painful and people smear said parasite into the wound when scratching it. The trypanosomes then spread to the nervous system, causing lethargy, tremors and confusion, and eventually coma and death.

After thinking about this for some time now and digesting countless mock drafts I have finally come to some conclusions I feel could work out for the Broncos on the 28th, 29th and 30th of this month. I'll offer some prose from the outset in an attempt to give an analogous and thoughtful perspective on the omnipotent entity we have come to know as the NFL Draft. Come along...
Much like a fifteen year old kid shopping the Auto Trader for their first car I have gone through daydream scenarios with just about every prospect possible…they each look great in Bronco orange pillaging and plundering the enemies and I see myself in slow motion jumping up for joy as " " does his thing and has to step over the sprawled out QB or that other guy " " run down that pass for an interception or "soandso" stop the go ahead drive with a tackle for loss or, or, well, the scenarios are endless…but as is the case with this time of year it is about as flighty and meaningless as the first date to be picked in that first car…seems like it's going to be the only shot at attention from the opposite sex (or whatever your pref. just to be pc) or that that one person is our only chance at happiness and we feel pressure to make it the perfect date but as time goes by and the essence of the mystery of what you think of the opposite sex wears off and more importantly once we realize there are many fish in the sea, so to speak, it's easy to see that it is important, but not life and death important...and most often in retrospect we end up being glad that the wishes we may have had for the moment, day, year, etc. fade off and leave us to the future that presently makes our life.
Such is the case with the Broncos at this precarious time in not only our beloved franchises history but the leagues as well. While we could speculate the outcome of the conundrum we currently find ourselves in with the current state of the CBA (and I use we in the sense of the NFL, the players and us the fans) I feel, however, for the purpose of analyzing a draft that WILL happen regardless, it is important to focus on the possibilities of the rookies coming aboard in a few short weeks. I have had to fight the urge, or habit as it may be, to fall in love with one or a few of the prospects and am reminded back to draft/rookie bliss in names like Mecklenburg, Davis, Smith, Sharpe and even Elway as I reminisce back to falling on the couch and staring at the ceiling agape in disbelief that we actually worked out a deal to get him upon hearing the fateful "breaking news report" way back in 1983, that we were blessed or with the talents of these young men and can say with all honesty that names like these, and there are many others if we begin to look back in the teams drafts, are names that were destined to become Broncos, but were most likely not names (with the exception of Elway here because most never even thought of him as a chance for us) we clamored over like the date we are prepared to do almost anything to gain the attention of including losing our own identity to it for some hypothetical idea we may have for what we think the other person wants us to be.
So I ask; why do we get all worked up over something that may or may not come to fruition? I count myself in the group. And so because of that I have had to exercise new methods of thinking about who would be best…which leaves me to the following…it'll work itself out just like most things in life and in the end we will either embrace our new youngster or we will be on our way to figuring out how to recognize who we don't want in our future….regardless of how strongly we felt a certain prospect would be THE answer.
I'm guessing that if we could step back and view or relive the early adolescent years, no matter which side of the chromosome ladder you are on, we would find it much easier if we knew then what we know now…but unfortunately we cannot turn back time and neither can the Broncos so "lessons learned" should be the motto going forward… the Broncos have that opportunity shortly and I for one am excited…but with a new method of anxiety riddled pondering of many not just one!
My rationale for 4 of the distinct possibilities I see:
1-We stay put at #2…The "kill two birds with one stone theory"…after much infatuspeculation and seesawing on the prospects it finally came clear to me that if I were picking, Miller would be my guy (w my eye over my shoulder at the other guy still)! The reason is this…he fills multiple holes/discrepancies with one big fast strong productive player…pass rush/outside containment/TE coverage (enabling diff packages) etc. and with the number of DTs expected to be impact players from this draft I think we can afford to sit and wait for one or two of the them in the later picks with the poss of still filling a hole with a free agent or Bannan if we find there are not two available for the liking.
2-We stay put at #2 but draft Dareus/Fairley/DT/DLineman…The "what seems to be the obvious choice theory"…I have been on the Dareus bandwagon for the longest of the current prospects but I have come to the conclusion that if this is the pick then EFX must have an option in free agency for adding LBing depth as there is little in this draft (of course there will be some who surprise and some who fail from this draft but… like the rest it's a crapshoot) and also find themselves comfortable with the current DBackfield and or the later round DBs available. A DT at the 2nd pick would be exciting but I feel it also is a little limiting as to the potential impact due to the nature of the position and the direct correlation of time spent on the field making it an expensive option…if we go this way we better have the ability to supplement the D with other or current players because one (or two) DLmen will not make a significant enough difference (check Suh here…) in a short amount of time.
3-We stay put at #2 but draft Peterson…The "a bird in hand is better than two in the bush theory" but we would actually have two so it works out and they would prob not want to pass up on the opportunity to pick a player of this supposed caliber…If EFX go this route with the pick I am convinced of one thing…we are confident to find a couple of DLineman later perhaps with 36 and 46 or later and they feel the importance of having a young franchise type corner/safety to groom along with Champ and speaking of Champ…if he moved to Safety later we still have a potentially great young Corner…also that we will have the chance to sign a free agent LB or find one in the draft.
4-We move our picks and try to accumulate later picks…The "get the most value theory"…I have also gone back and forth as to whether we should take this approach…it is intriguing but also scary to leave a spot on the board we hopefully never have the chance to see again…that being said however this would indicate that the current top prospects do not necessarily garner the ranking to take precedence over gaining more picks…and that the DTs will still be available with the other positions being either filled through free agency (?) or the draft over the next two or so years.
No matter what though we will be rooting for and arguing over the next group of rooks and they will fulfill their destiny no matter what we think or do or say! Enjoy the ride and make the most out of the choice come the time…we might be surprised (or disappointed)! Let's hope for the former!

"I love this area!"
When I visit Boston, I always enjoy exploring the North End, especially little Italy. There are many great restaurants and cute boutiques in the area. If you are walking the Freedom Trail, as we did, it is a short detour of a couple of blocks to walk down and explore Fleet St. We had a fantastic meal at Prezza, a great authentic Italian restaurant.
