Great day hike as well as for first time backpackers. Not particularly challenging, but can get tricky if it has rained - but the best time to see the falls really pumping. Please pack out your trash and pick up a bit more that other twits left behind. Wrote more details in the other trail description for this hike.

First 2 weekends of April and first 3 weekends of November, the gorge is closed to hikers because the water is increased for kayakers. Amazing to watch WORLD CLASS pro kayakers run Oceana...
They only allow 100 people a day permits to the gorge floor. And it is dependent on weather. You can call ahead (9amish) and they will let you know if permits will be issued. If it is raining, has rained, or is forecasted for rain, most likely they will not allow people down.
Hike down to the platform, you WILL have to rock hop. I recommend bringing a dry bag for any electronics (even a ziplock) just in case... the water, regardless of time of year is cold. And the rocks are slippery - I got knocked in helping a woman jump from rock to rock in January one year. You think those stairs suck? Try it when you are soaking wet and it is 34 degrees out.
You can slide/swim at Bridal Veil - great spot to sun/picnic. I recommend crossing and going back via Sliding Rock trail - it is steep, but offers some incredible views and you will see the standing Wallenda Tower (plus you don't have to go back all the stairs!). Check out the pics from "the olden days" in the Visitors Center before going down - it is cool to stand where some of the pics have been taken.
Make sure to take your trash with you and say hi to Ranger Danny.

Nice day hike and this is my "go to hike" for first time backpackers. Plenty of options to camp - things can get a bit crowded/rowdy at the base of the falls on weekends and during the summer. It can be a bit slick at the final descent to the falls - steepish, packed red clay. There are a few narrow spots that can make people a smidge nervous if afraid of heights. I have seen a few copperheads, so keep an eye out... yes, there are snakes all over the place - just a reminder - an older man almost sat on one sunning on a rock!
I usually find a fair amount of trash on this trail, so bring a bag and pick up what you can on the way back.

Start really early if you want to hike this on a weekend. Can be a bit slick in spots if it has rained recently. Unfortunately, encounter a lot of people who don't leash their dogs on this trail.
Lots of spots to scramble down to check out the waterfalls if the water is low. There are a lot of copperheads in warmer months - especially sunning on logs on the trail - more reason to keep your dog on leash.
I see many people don't even bother to hike up to see the actual falls. You can then scramble up to the top of the falls - due to blowdown, cannot go much further and not much more to see... but great more secluded spot for a picnic and, if you have hammocks, to camp for the night. This last spot can be really tricky if it has rained - red clay... there is a decent amount of bear activity in the area, so secure your food. They run off if noticed, but be prepared.
If you drive past the trailhead until you come to a water crossing, park to the right and there is a nice waterfall with a bench there. This creek forms Dukes Creek falls downstream. Also, as you drive back towards the trailhead, you will see an open dispersed camping area to the right. If you park there and cross the small stream, you are now on the switchbacks to the base of Dukes Creek Falls. (You avoid the parking fee as well as a lot of stairs) Be smart and don't try this if the water is high - and either have water shoes/waterproof boots, or take them off. Water is cold all year long, but it is only about 15ft across (dodging a downed tree or 2)
Parallel Trail -Cumberland Island

I spend a week here each August (no one is there because of heat and bugs). If you go in summer, use the industrial-strength Deet and wear a bug net over your face. You sweat and they will swarm around you. But don't let that deter you.
I rode my bike up to Plum Orchard (solo) only to find out it was closed that day. The heat was awful, so I ddecided to ride back on the Parallel Trail. (For you nitpickers, there were no signs saying no bikes where I entered). Lovely trail except the mosquitoes... and the rattlesnake. And the 2 hogs that ran out in front of me, clipped my wheel, sent me flying in a marshy area that alligators are... Seriously! Still, was a beautiful experience - variety of areas... plus you see more horses and deer.
My blog has a ton of tips and info

I head out to spend a week each August on Cumberland Island for the full moon and Perseid Meteor shower.
Early risers get to see all the good stuff - deer, bobcats, the horses... Find a spot in the meadow beyond the slave quarters and just sit. (A poncho works great as a blanket) I would see the sunrise and watch the horses and deer (including the white buck) graze. I would move below Dungeoness to watch more horses graze, then head down to Racoon Island for more close encounters. (Day visitors rarely make it down there) You can dig for sharks teeth there as well.

Moderately strenuous. Sometimes we got off the main trail so you have to pay attention.
The road to the trail head was not marked. Just turn in at either the church sign or the Highway Patrol office sign.

Always nice to get in the woods. The first couple miles of this trail was PACKED with people. Many were tourists that did not know trail etiquette, and we're running straight up portions of the mountain, rather than using the switchbacks. I am hoping our first outing here was just a fluke. Other than that, be ready for a little bit of a scramble at parts (for kids and smaller dogs). The view up top has a view of the city in the distance.

Hiked this loop on 10/18/14 (or should say pulled by the dog). Weather was great, sunny low 60's, perfect weather. Not much for any views, just a couple of glimpses. However, great hike though some beautiful North Georgia woods. Couple of small streams and small water falls. Does have a couple of good inclines that will give your legs and lungs a workout. Parking lot was full but I only came across 6 hikers. There was a church group of about 20 campers but most all of the trail there was no one in sight. Definite do again hike since it's close and a good workout.

Drift: The Unmooring of American Military Power
Rachel Maddow
Drift: The Unmooring of American Military Power
Rachel Maddow
Includes an introduction by Paul Barratt, former head of Australia's department of defence.
When Thomas Jefferson spoke of 'never keeping an unnecessary soldier', neither he nor America's other founding fathers could have envisaged the national security state that the country has become. They could not have imagined its tens of thousands of 'privateers'; its bloated Department of Homeland Security; its rusting nuclear weapons, ill-maintained and difficult to dismantle; and its strange fascination with an unproven counterinsurgency doctrine.
Written with bracing wit and intelligence, Rachel Maddow's Drift argues that America has drifted away from its original ideals and become a nation weirdly at peace with perpetual war, with all the financial and human costs that entails. Maddow takes us from the Vietnam War to today's war in Afghanistan, exploring the disturbing rise of executive authority, the gradual outsourcing of war-making capabilities to private companies, the plummeting percentage of American soldiers in the military, and even the changing fortunes of GI Joe. Ultimately, she shows us just how much we all stand to lose by allowing the priorities of the national security state to overpower political discourse.
Sensible yet provocative, deadly serious yet seriously funny, Drift has already reinvigorated a political debate about how, when, and where America's strength and power should be applied — and who gets to make those decisions.

The weekend is on the verge of ending, but that also means we're on the verge of getting hockey back! 67 days until the Dallas Stars open their season against the Chicago Blackhawks on October 9th at the American Airlines Center.
There's really not that much to talk about today. Usually I got something for ya, but not today! I've been sitting here for an hour and can't really think of anything. I'll have a P.K. Subban article up tomorrow morning, but not much today. Name 3 players from the Stars lockout season that don't play for the club anymore. I've got a great lineup for you in the coming week, just nothing for today.
Here's a link to my former P.K. Subban article: click here

150 sounds better for your weight and height. i am also 5'8.5" and weigh 135lbs. I have the pickle in 150 and it is great. I had the 147 before, but the topsheet cracked after 3 days, so i got the 150 as a replacement from sport chalet (they will take ANY board that they carry and replace it for you, even if you didnt buy it from there, pretty awesome). the 147 was more fun to play around on in the park, but the 150 feels stabler and doesnt stick like the 147 for me.

Does Your Birthday Decide Your Career?
by Sheryl Stewart
posted Sep 9 2011 1:27PM
I don't know how accurate this is, because THIS September baby is TERRIBLE at sports, science & math (ruling out pro-athlete & physicist for me). It is interesting, though. After going through census data, researchers discovered a link between your birth month and what you do for a living: December babies will most likely grow up to be dentists. January babies are debt collectors Most artists are born in February March is a good month for future pilots April and May don't have a dominant profession Summer months are not good for professional athletes or doctors September is the month for pro athletes and physicists Spring babies are at greater risk of illnesses like asthma, autism and schizophrenia :-(

- Did you know?
- Rene Bourque is off to his longest goal drought to start a season since 2007-08. However, he has a while to go to beat his slump that year where he needed 12 games to record his first goal.
With the Habs having picked their new GM, the focus now shifts to who will replace Randy Cunneyworth behind the bench for the 2012-13 season. GM Marc Bergevin is believed to have started the selection process although there has been very little word on the candidates that may have already been interviewed. Should the Habs go with some new blood or is a coaching veteran the way to go?
As we did with the GM's, we've comprised a survey to get a sense of what you want in a coach and more specifically, who you want. The first section goes over some general characteristics and coaching strategies where you can rate how important each is for your ideal candidate. Since this process began, there have been countless names mentioned as possible coaches for the Habs, we've cut it down to 16 coaches with varying levels of experience from four different leagues (and two television networks). From that, we'd like you to rate each option and choose your top option for the next coach of the Montreal Canadiens.

Atwater, an up-and-coming surf brand in Newport Beach, made the Ducks connection through a friend of Atwater design director Scott Madison. To say thanks, the Ducks players made Atwater its own jersey and the players sign it when they come in.
To those reading who don't know how this works, companies provide free clothes to prominent people such as athletes, musicians, art and actors, which gives the brands exposure.
Here's a list of the players who are wearing Atwater, from Mike Quilliam of Atwater:
"We have hooked up Ryan Getzlaf #15, George Parros #16, Corey Perry #10 who are currently still with the Ducks. Shane O'Brien, Joffrey Lupul and Dustin Penner are also players that we have hooked up but unfortunately have been traded. Dustin Penner was in here about 2 weeks ago. The day before he left to fly to Edmonton to start practice with his new team, the Oilers. I think the word is spreading around the locker room because more and more Ducks keep showing up. They are all super cool and very appreciative of all the clothes and support we give them."
In other Atwater news, they are having a warehouse sale Friday and Saturday. Here's the flyer:

Acting was very good and good use of the space in the theater.

The acting was superb all around. Getting to see rarely-staged one-acts is a treat, like watching the Oscar-nominated shorts. We'd had no idea of the breadth of writing that Tennessee Williams had done.

As you may have seen in the Our Kids; Our Business section of today's Spokesman-Review, kicking off another week of charity-focus here at the Vox Box! We've investigated a huge range of topics; everything from Health, Animal Shelters, Food Banks, and more. Get ready and geared up for week two of 'Charity-A-Day'! Today we'll tackle a big one: Education! (Yeah…the mention of that whole 'school' things usually inspires some groans and whining, but hold on - this is the good stuff…)
"Start with Trust"
The Better Busines Bureau is making education their main business with the BBB Education Foundation. Found in Eastern Washington, North Idaho, and Montana, the BBB works toward their goal to "promote and foster ethical relationships within our community" by inviting high school sophomores to discuss ethics and preparing our generation for what lies ahead.
"…Raising a high bar for all students benefits all students."
That's the core belief of Seattle-based education charity, Alliance for Education. Raising capital, creating challenging courses, and inspiring students within Washington, are just a few of the things Alliance does to "champion change and help drive effective strategies that will increase student achievement." The Alliance for Education also rewards teachers: Two scholarship-awards are given out to remarkable educators and one award is granted to a notable principal. You can help this unique charity by donation or by volunteering at their annual October fundraising-breakfast…(and yes - by volunteering you get part of the breakfast…yummm, helping students can be delicious!)
"…Prepare students from underserved communities for success in universities."
Accra, Mamprobi, Chorkor, and Dansoman: These are the areas of Ghana, West Africa that are being helped by the Darkwa Foundation. With a branch in Bellevue, WA, Darkwa's goal is to promote education in nurseries, pre-school's, kindergartens, Middle schools, and primary school's in Ghana - thus limiting poverty. The charity accepts donations as well as 'In-Kind' gifts, such as text books, curriculum guides, computers, and toys all to "enable [the kids] to contribute to the development of their own country."

About The Vampire Diaries
Four months after the tragic car accident that killed their parents, 17-year-old Elena Gilbert and her 15-year-old brother, Jeremy are still trying to cope with their grief and move on with their lives. Elena has always been the star student; beautiful, popular and involved with school and friends, but now she finds herself struggling to hide her sadness from the world. As the school year begins, Elena and her friends are fascinated by a handsome and mysterious new student, Stefan Salvatore. Stefan and Elena are immediately drawn to one another, and Elena has no way of knowing that Stefan is a centuries-old vampire, struggling to live peacefully among humans, while his brother Damon is the embodiment of vampire violence and brutality. Now these two vampire brothers - one good, one evil - are at war for Elena's soul and for the souls of her friends, family and all the residents of the small town of Mystic Falls, Virginia.

by MARY ELIZABETH (LEACH) RAINES
© 2014, M. E. Raines
"The hive of the honeybee centers around its queen. When the hive needs a new queen, the workers select several larvae from eggs that had been laid in the cells of the honeycomb by the previous queen. The workers feed these larvae a special substance called royal jelly and the cells they inhabit are later sealed. Because of the royal jelly, the larvae in these particular cells will eventually turn into queen bees.
"Upon hatching, the very first queen to emerge from her cell begins to make a high-pitched piping sound. She sings to her still-unhatched sisters. From within their cells, they sing back to her. Tracing the location of their cells by the sound of their calls, she finds each of her unborn sisters and stings them to death. This is because there can only be one queen bee."
Her name was Bodacious Bea and the club where she performed was called, ironically, The Beehive. Bodacious Bea had soft tawny-colored skin, fleshy breasts, and flawless, if spectacularly overdone, makeup. Her glitter-strewn scarlet hair was perfectly curled and coifed, piled high on her head.
On the past Thanksgiving, Bea's brother had commented rudely about the color of her hair. "That shade of red is not even in the spectrum," he had remarked, mumbling through a mouth crammed with stuffing and mashed potatoes. "It's just wrong. Like seeing a blue popsicle."
He did not approve of her being a drag queen. None of her family did. She consoled herself with the thought that even Jesus couldn't preach in his home town.
Despite the sneers of her brother, Bodacious Bea was clearly the star act at The Beehive. And everyone always told her that they loved her hair!
"What makes me so special," she said haughtily in a recent radio interview, enunciating each word carefully and lisping ever so slightly, "is my size. I am sooo not one of those gargantuan, ludicrous imposters. You can see right through them in a second. I am only 5'4", and except for certain portions of my anatomy, I am very petite." She rolled her "r" when she said the word very. With a little giggle, she added, "I am feminine, you see, to the hilt."
Night after night, audiences screamed their approval of Bodacious Bea. She had a bit where would return for a curtain call and stand in the spotlight. As the roars subsided, she would bat her eyelashes and cry to the audience, "Ooh, you naughty men! You make me want to throw my panties at you!" Of course, this made them begin to cheer her loudly all over again.
In her mind, it was indisputable: she was the queen of the queens…or she would have been if it weren't for her rivals, Kurvee Kittee and Luscious Lou-Lou.
It was almost time for the show. Bea was punctual, and she was always ready well before everyone else. Emerging from her dressing room, wearing a snug turquoise sheath that glittered with the garish reflections from thousands of embedded rhinestones, Bodacious Bea minced confidently down the backstage hallway. Her dress was so tight that she had no choice but to mince. It wasn't a problem. She liked to mince.
In a high-pitched piping voice, Bea sang out, "Kittee! Kittee? Where are you? I so need to see you!"
Kurvee Kittee had galloped in only a few minutes ago, and she was decidedly grumpy. From one of the dressing rooms, a masculine voice growled, "What the hell do you want? I'm late, damn it."
Whenever Kittee was stressed, she fell out of character. She could be decidedly unfeminine. This bothered Bea, who wished that Kittee's fans could hear her now. Bea herself was always genuine; she never forgot for a moment who and where she was.
Whenever Kittee was stressed, she fell out of character. She could be decidedly unfeminine. This bothered Bea, who wished that Kittee's fans could hear her now. Bea herself was always genuine; she never forgot for a moment who and where she was.
Bea opened the door to the dressing room from which the voice had sounded. Kittee, in her underwear, sat awkwardly on a stool before the mirror, legs splayed for balance, and was frantically attempting to glue her false eyelashes on. They kept falling off. Kittee's red-smeared lips were curled back in a furious, impatient snarl.
Posturing coquettishly with one hand on her hip, Bea moved in behind Kittee and shook her head at the scene. "Oh Kittee, darling," she crooned, "You always have so much trouble with your makeup...." She leaned in more closely and murmured softly, "You know, honey, I'm not sure you really belong here. You should leave."
Kittee swiveled angrily around on her stool. She seemed to be preparing to shout obscenities at Bea, but she choked on her words as the latter waggled her hips and departed swiftly from the dressing room.
Re-entering the hallway, Bea turned in a new direction and, in a high-pitched falsetto, trilled out, "Lou-Lou? Oh, Lo-o-o-u? Where are yo-o-o-u?"
"I'm here, Bea, in wardrobe. And oh my god, I need help!"
The sad wobbly alto voice came from behind the clothing rack in the costume department. Bea sashayed over to the gleaming, gaudy garments. It was easy to spot Lou-Lou. She hovered high over the rack of clothes, for she was nearly a foot taller than Bea, and she was decidedly not thin. Nobody else was present in the room except for the two drag queens.

She hovered high over the rack of clothes, for she was nearly a foot taller than Bea, and she was decidedly not thin. Nobody else was present in the room except for the two drag queens.
Unlike Kittee, Lou-Lou never lost sight of her feminity, but still, in Bea's mind, she was always just a little bit off the mark. Yes, Lou-Lou tried too hard, but it wasn't that. Trying too hard and being over the top were expected of the girls. Lou-Lou's height was a flaw in Bea's mind, but most of Lou-Lou's fans enjoyed her gigantic frame. No, the problem was that Lou was just…pathetic. There was something whiney and droopy about her. Her voice constantly quavered and she always seemed ready to burst into tears. Granted, she did a good Judy Garland, despite her size, but otherwise, Bea felt that Lou-Lou was distressingly inferior.
"I just cannot find a thing to wear tonight," the tall queen moaned helplessly. "I'm retaining water and it's made me puffy. Nothing fits!"
Bea wanted to make a bitchy comment about the three puffy beers and two puffy cheesteak subs that Lou-Lou had wolfed down last night when they went out after the show, but she held her tongue.
Grabbing a large-sized emerald green frock from the rack and moving around to the other side to get closer to Lou-Lou, she warbled, "Why don't you try this one on, dear?"
The dress served as a shield when she stabbed Lou-Lou. She didn't want any more blood to spatter her turquoise gown the way it had when she had cut Kittee's throat…although she realized that the audience might simply see the red spots as a wonderfully chic way of balancing out the glorious red color of her hair.
That night Bea gave the most splendid performance she'd ever given! The audience went wild! They loved her! They couldn't get enough of her! It was the best night of her life. Bodacious Bea was truly the queen of queens!
A year later, sitting with her legs crossed on a chair in her prison cell, impatiently thumbing through a magazine, she came across the article describing the behavior of honeybee queens. Bea reflected sadly upon this. Why did the rules for one species have to be so different for another? She sighed, and wished she could freshen her lipstick. They would not let her wear her makeup in prison.
It wasn't so bad, though. She still quite popular. She looked good in orange. And she was the only queen on her cell block.

In what has got to be the best follow up of all time to my somewhat tongue in cheek posting last month about the purported benefits of red wine for just about everything, comes this report from Argentina:
Now, use red wine for tightening stomach and firming breasts!
London | July 24, 2004 3:44:16 PM IST
Red wine is the latest rage in the beauty salons of Buenos Aires, where it is believed that it can tighten the stomach and firm sagging breasts.
According to Ananova, creams made with red wine or even a glass of pure wine, when applied directly to the person's skin are bringing in dramatic results, and beauty clinics all over Buenos Aires are reporting a huge demand for wine therapy by women.
"After cleansing, the skin receives a special wine mask that is rich in vitamin E. It brings firmness and nutrition to the skin, making it healthy and elastic," said wine therapy expert Diego Barberan.
"It is fantastic. It does what it promises. I can say with no fear that I am addicted," added Mary Andres, a regular wine therapy customer. (ANI)
Interested in what else wine can do for you? Check out my previous post on the subject.
Greeeeeat...One more reason my girlfiend needs to support her "going to the spa" days.
It entertains me to see wine turn into this generation's "oxi clean"
Here's an even better idea Ryan...
You should suggest that she skip the spa all together and offer to pour wine directly on her instead.
Then you both win...;)

Classic Bookshelf
Continuing our celebration of the Guild's 75th anniversary for the years 1945 - 1965, we've collected some of the most interesting books about directors and the era.
A Cinema of Loneliness: Penn, Kubrick, Coppola, Scorsese, Altman
By Robert Kolker
First published in 1980 and available now in its fourth revised edition, A Cinema of Loneliness remains the most acute and perceptive critical study of some of the finest films and directors of the Hollywood New Wave of the 1970s. Robert Kolker sees solitude, emptiness, and alienation as the key themes in these directors' responses to a bleak decade. As evidence, he points to some 20 movies that end on shots of people in solitude, from Michael Corleone by his lake to Robert Altman's McCabe dying in the snow. The book's greatest pleasures come in his unpacking of movies we think we're familiar with—shot by shot, creative decision by creative decision—in a manner that makes them newly rich and complex. Stanley Kubrick's Barry Lyndon (1975), Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather parts I and II (1972, '74) in relation to The Conversation (1974), Altman's The Long Goodbye (1973), and Arthur Penn's Night Moves (1975) are among the films decon-structed better here than anywhere else. Loneliness is riveting, blessedly free of sclerotic academese, and teeming with diverse rewards and insights.
Review written by John Patterson.
The best of new publications by, for, and about directors, their teams and the industry.
Teetering between exhaustive and exhausting, Fosse brings us the definitive portrait of a complex man and talented director.
It's easy to generalize the work of director Wes Anderson as "artificial," but in his new book, Matt Zoller Seitz finds the substance in Anderson's signature style.
William Wyler has often been excluded from auteurist circles, and by extension from serious film study, which, as Gabriel Miller argues, is a gross oversimplification.
Wilson's new memoir is a fascinating behind-the-scenes account of what it was like to bring viewers "the thrill of victory, and the agony of defeat," week in, week out.
In John Badham's latest book he culls from his nearly 40-year history in the industry to provide invaluable first-hand insight for vets and novices alike.
Who Owns the Future? is a cautionary tale, warning of an economic cataclysm and eradication of the middle class if the concept of "free" information keeps to its current trajectory
Alan Casty tackles the often frustrating paradoxes of a man whose fundamentally American films possess a darkness that reveal the complex ideology of their volatile director.
George Lucas mapped out where he was going in Star Wars with storyboards for everything from the opening credits to the climactic battle between the evil empire and the rebel forces.
Steven Spielberg looks over the script for Jaws (1975) while shooting on the beach in Martha's Vineyard.
A snapshot of Hollywood at the high noon of the American New Wave, this is a delightful time machine of a book showing us what was actually there before the steady encrustation of myth had taken hold.
If there's an emblematic career that showcases the entire history of television from its postwar inception to the late '80s, it must be James Sheldon's.
This epic, wide-ranging conversation between two people who together may know more about movies than anyone else in America offers nothing but pleasure
Because Mel Brooks' films are so full of outrageous gags and scabrous humor, his skill as a director is often overlooked. A reassessment is due.
Somehow Warren Beatty persuaded a major studio to let him make Reds, his passion project about John Reed and the Russian Revolution. The director describes how he shot a climactic confrontation between art and politics.

British Prime Minister David Cameron promised to help North Africa fight terrorism as he arrived in Algeria on Wednesday for talks on security cooperation.
The visit came two weeks after the In Amenas hostage crisis which saw 37 foreigners killed including six from the UK.
Cameron laid a wreath at the Martyrs Monument, which was built to mark Algeria's war of independence from France between 1954 and 1962.
He also vowed to work with other governments in the region to halt the growing threat from al-Qaida-linked militants in the region.
"What is required in countries like Mali – just as in countries like Somalia on the other side of Africa – is that a combination of a tough approach on security, aid, politics, settling grievances and problems; an intelligence approach that brings together all the things we need to do with countries in this neighbourhood to help them; to make them safer, but to make us safer too," said Cameron.
On Tuesday, Britain promised to send military experts to Mali to boost French, African and Malian forces fighting an insurgency by Islamist rebels.
Several hundred people were kept hostage during the four day siege at a remote desert gas plant.
Although most were released, dozens were thought to have been killed as Algerian troops fought to retake the facility.
British oil giant BP is among several operators of the gas field.

Verizon Asks Court To Affirm 'Most Reliable' Claim
samzenpus posted more than 5 years ago | from the can-you-sue-me-now dept.111
suraj.sun writes "Verizon has asked a court to affirm its claim to be 'America's Most Reliable 3G Network.' From the article, 'Verizon Wireless, a joint venture of Verizon and Vodafone Group PLC, asked a US court for a judgment that its advertising claims to be "America's Most Reliable 3G Network" were truthful, which rival AT&T called "misleading" on Monday. In papers filed in US District Court in Manhattan, Verizon said assertions on July 1 by AT&T Mobility LLC, a unit of AT&T, that its advertising was false could not be supported. AT&T, which has its principal business in Atlanta, had filed the challenge with the National Advertising Division of the Council for Better Business Bureaus. Verizon Wireless said its claims of having "America's Most Reliable 3G Network" and "America's Best 3G Network" and "America's Most Reliable Wireless Network" are "truthful, accurate and substantiated" and do not violate the trademark law known as the Lanham Act. It said that AT&T's challenge "relies on the incorrect premise that speed is an essential element of the standard for measuring network reliability.'" I can only hope that at some future date a court will decide which light beer truly is the best tasting.

We've already examined the most popular puppy names of 2012, but just finding out which names we're most likely to hear at the dog park wasn't quite enough. We wanted to look at which monikers were on the rise, so we dug a little deeper to determine the 10 trendiest names of 2012.
To do so, we hit up Vetstreet's data, which includes information about 1.26 million dogs. We looked at where the names were in 2003 and 2012; those that moved up the most made the list. Of course, some names fell off the list completely in the past decade — Elvis, Ozzie and Cassie among them. Some of these were replaced by newer names like Thor and Athena that, despite a late entry to the Top 100, have become popular enough that they, too, were included. [See Also: 10 Least-Trendy Dog Names]
Dexter rose in popularity the most of all male dog names, starting at No. 99 in 2003 and landing at No. 25 in 2012.
Luna's rise in popularity was even more meteoric, also beginning at No. 99 in 2003 and rising to No. 19 last year.
Although Thor didn't even appear on the Most Popular list back in 2003, it climbed to No. 27 in 2012, after making the list for the first time in 2010. Not coincidentally, the movie Thor came out in 2011, and the main character in that movie also starred in last year's top film, The Avengers.
Layla, at No. 37, might not have box office stats to compare to Thor, but it's also risen quickly, cracking the Top 100 in 2004 and hitting No. 37 last year.
Gunner first came on our radar in 2004, and ever since then, it's climbed in popularity, ranking now at No. 28.
Piper, which now holds the No. 42 spot, broke into the Top 100 in 2006 and quickly gained steam.
Bentley is a star on the rise, joining the Top 100 in 2002 and hitting No. 7 last year. It's been one of the Top 10 male dog names for the past three years.
Nala, a name from one of our favorite animated films, The Lion King, was the No. 25 most popular name last year, after first making the Top 100 back in 2003.
At No. 35, Jax isn't one of the most popular names, but it's moved up the ranks quickly considering it wasn't in the Top 100 until 2009. One interesting tidbit: The name Jackson has declined over the past five years, and this is the first time Jax has earned a more popular spot than its longer counterpart.
Stella made the Top 100 for the first time back in 2001 and hit No. 22 last year. Could the adorable Frenchie on Modern Family have something to do with the name's rise in popularity?
Ace first made the Top 100 in 2003. It rose to No. 31 in 2012, perhaps due to the recent trend of owners choosing old-school human nicknames for their pets.
Willow, hitting the Top 100 in 2009, has made quite the impression, rising to No. 59 last year.
Leo, the 30th most popular name overall, made the Top 100 list for the first time in 2001 and has been climbing up the chart ever since.
Maya joined the Top 100 list back in 2005, rising to No. 60 by 2012.
Although it may seem like an established and stately name, King, the No. 51 name, didn't break into the Top 100 until 2006, making it a relative newcomer.
Athena is an even more recent addition to the list of popular names, joining the Top 100 in 2010 and rising sharply over the last couple of years, hitting No. 62 in 2012.
Simba, currently No. 53, first became popular during the mid-nineties, thanks to The Lion King. It dropped out of the Top 100 in 2001, but came back in 2009, seeing a major surge in popularity over the past few years.
Traditionally a male dog name, Charlie has become a favorite for female dogs, joining the Top 100 in 2010.
Milo claimed the No. 17 spot in 2012, marking its first entrance into the Top 20.
Ella joined the ranks of the Top 100 in 2006 and has remained a prevalent pick since then, grabbing the No. 64 slot in 2012.

By now, Sara White is settling back into the rhythm of eating real meals for dinner.
Not the Lean Cuisine, pop corn or cereal she usually is relegated while husband Martin Clapp, one of Purdue's assistant coaches, is on the road recruiting during July.
Having a different diet is only one thing that's tough about being a coach's spouse in the month and being left home.
Simply finding time to chat with those on the road isn't easy either.
"We talk every day, but, sometimes, he might only have five or 10 minutes or he's really tired when he gets back to the hotel at night," White said. "I turn in pretty early, so sometimes I'm asleep by the time he gets back from the gym. So we make sure we touch base, but it's tough."
Matt Painter's wife Jerri said it's nearly impossible to have serious conversations with her husband while he's on the road.
Earlier in July, she said she called him at about 10:30 p.m. and there were things she "absolutely, positively" needed his input on.
But conversations are usually disjointed because Matt is distracted, she said.
"It's not things I can make decisions for myself," she said in a telephone interview in mid-July. "I'm having this parallel conversation with him, trying to talk to him about some things that are emotionally charged. He's going, 'Yeah, I'll have water. OK, go ahead. What do you mean I can't get supper? I can't get anything to eat? Well, I've got to have something to eat. I'm sorry, I'm going to have to go somewhere else.' I'm going, 'Hello? Are you talking to me?' He's like, 'I'm sorry. I haven't eaten.' I'm like, 'Could you just call me at a reasonable hour so we can discuss this thing?' Then he goes someplace else and is like, 'Can I have an omelet ...' "
Problem is, there really isn't a "reasonable hour" for coaches, especially while they're on the road in July.
"They live such a different reality," Jerri Painter said.
Jerri Painter said it gets to a point when she simply has to make what she thinks are the right decisions and move on.
Jerri Painter said she wanted to get daughter Maggie, 16, a car because she's a bad driver and has dinged Jerri's Escalade. Matt offered: "I'll think about it."
"So I go look at cars, come back and give him the information and say, 'You've got two weeks to tell me what you think and if you don't, then I'm going to make my own decision,' " she said. "I've found that e-mails or anything that's written is good so when I go back I can be like, 'Hey!' "
- Got a lot of great stuff from speaking with Jerri Painter that likely will wind up in a profile of Matt Painter at some point during the basketball season. She's intelligent, got some spunk and hilarious. Can't wait to share some of the other stuff she talked about, including calling him a "control freak," saying there is a "two-sentence rule" in the house, about how consuming coaching is and its effect on the family and how difficult it can be for the family to go out without being mobbed by fans.
