The RV Road Trip Planner
May 1, 2014 by Rex Vogel · 5 Comments
An RV road trip isn't about getting from Point A to Point B. It's about the people, places, and things you meet and experience along the way. Good Sam's Trip Planner features tools and information designed to help you have the best road trip. If you are going on a family road trip, planning is essential. With some simple preparation, the road trip can be one you will remember for a long time. When you think of what you'll need for a road trip, a common list unfolds. Food, beverages, (healthy) snacks, paper products, lawn chairs and recliners, maps, and Good Sam GPS are all items you might bring along. Using a checklist is an excellent way to ensure you have everything you need. Checking off items as you pack your RV will ensure you don't find yourself in the middle of nowhere brushing your teeth with your finger. There are some items you CANNOT do without while RVing and these should be at the top of your list. It's important to take sufficient drinking water, a well-stocked... [Read more...]
Family Camping Destination – the Adventure District in OKC!
April 28, 2014 by Dana Ticknor · Leave a Comment
We have spent the last 2 weeks in Oklahoma City. Even though we spent 3 weeks here last spring, we were volunteering with tornado cleanup efforts, and didn't have a chance to explore the city much. This year we have scoped out the best in family friendly stops here, and have found that OKC is a great place for a family camping destination! OKC has an area in town called the Adventure District, which is full of fun stops, all within a few blocks of each other. We had a great time visiting the OKC Zoo, where we spent 4 hours discovering the extensive grounds that house nearly 1900 animals. In addition to large animal exhibits, the zoo offers several aviaries, butterfly and botanical gardens, and has great play areas as well as offering train rides and a carousel. The kids really enjoyed participating in a simple scavenger hunt which netted them some fun treats! Right next to the OKC Zoo, is Science Museum Oklahoma. This incredible science museum is fun for all ages, and has... [Read more...]
History comes to life at Old Salem!
April 23, 2014 by Dana Ticknor · 2 Comments
Welcome center gift shop that included great kids' historical gifts!w visiting the Winston-Salem/Greensboro area of North Carolina! Our tribe recently camped near Winston-Salem, in North Carolina, and loved the family friendly atmosphere of the area! One of our favorite destinations in the area was the Old Salem Museum & Gardens. Old Salem is a living history village, where original 1700s buildings, staffed with reenactors, are opened up to ticket holders. Tavern Kitchen tour and talk from a living history re-enactor. The visitor's center offers 2 gift shops, a treat shop, and some exhibits. The staff gave us maps, and were careful to point out stops that it might be easy to miss on the walking tour. After we checked out the v.c., we walked through the covered wooden bridge that spanned the main roadway separating the visitor's center and the authentic 17 and 1800s buildings that are featured in the tour. Once across the bridge we came to the Frank L Horton... [Read more...]
Roadschooling Field Trip: Exploring the transportation challenges of Bible translating…
April 18, 2014 by Dana Ticknor · Leave a Comment
We discovered a very unique stop in southern North Carolina, just south of Charlotte; the Jaars headquarters, which is a part of Wycliffe Bible Translators. Jaars is an acronym for Jungle Aviation and Radio Service, and is the transportation part of the ministry, transporting missionaries and supplies to remote areas of the world. This was a fabulous visit for us, and built on our interactive stop at Wycliffe Bible Translators in Orlando earlier in the year; Jaars is the transportation arm of Wycliffe. We loved to visit the Jaars campus! The campus offers free, 2 hour long, guided tours (daily at 9:30am) of the main visitor's center, tech aviation hangar, and 2 different museums. Our tour started with an engaging and informational talk about other language groups then covered the IT center, where we learned about the role that tecnology has in Bible translation. Next was a short walk to the airplane hangar, where we were given a tour and told about the difficulties of reaching... [Read more...]
Another Snowbird Season Ends as the Northern Migration Begins
April 11, 2014 by Rex Vogel · Leave a Comment
As refugees from the frozen north, snowbirds escape winter at home by migrating southward each fall. Located at the base of Oak Creek Canyon, Sedona is renowned for its stunning rock formations such as Cathedral Rock. Sedona is also a popular stop over snowbirds on their northern flight. © Rex Vogel, all rights reserved These snowbirds are mostly seniors that live part time in the Sunbelt and spend summers in the Northern states and Canada. They are gilded nomads, prosperous enough to own a recreational vehicle, a temporary second home, or condo unit. Snowbirds desire some place warm and relatively free from crime, and an active lifestyle that may involve boating, fishing, swimming, dancing, hiking, biking, 4X4ing, golf, shuffle-board, or pickle ball. Some prefer the Pacific or Atlantic coast or Gulf of Mexico with their sunny beaches, while the preference of other is the arid desert of the Southwest. Warm weather hubs such as Arizona, Texas, Florida, and California are tops for their... [Read more...]
Get Organized NOW for Summer Family Camping
April 6, 2014 by Cynthia Baum · Leave a Comment
We are getting organized now for our summer family camping trip in May for Memorial Day. Why now, a month and a half early? Well, we have kids, for one, and we have things that we need to buy, so getting organized ahead of time is the best way to save some money on all the expenditures that inevitably come along with summer family camping. We plan to kick off the summer by camping with friends at the lake this year. I have already started making a mental checklist as to what I plan to bring. It's a good idea when summer family camping with kids to start thinking about what you will need, ahead of time, for many reasons. For instance, water shoes are a must for kids to wear at the lake. Now, if I waited until the last minute, I would have to pay full price for a pair of water shoes that they will only use a handful of times this summer. By thinking ahead, I can start looking for water shoes (or other camping necessities) at online sales (like Camping World), thrift stores, garage... [Read more...]
Biking With Kids While Camping– A Must!
April 5, 2014 by Cynthia Baum · Leave a Comment
This is our daughter's first ride on the WeeRide in 2012–she LOVED it! While camping with kids, having wheels of some kind is a must. Biking with kids while camping really is one of the funnest activities you can do when camping with kids. We love taking the kids on bike rides since you can go a lot further on bikes than you can walking. Before you set out on the bikes though, it's best to make sure the route you plan to take is kid-friendly and that you have a helmet for each child. Ideally, you would take a trail that is made for hikers, bikers, and runners (separated from cars). Otherwise you have to constantly pay close attention to the car traffic and stay right with your child, unless of course they are small enough to be in a bike trailer or attached bike seat. With our two, we have our youngest (3) on the seat behind me on my bike and our daughter (6) is either on the WeeRide Co-Pilot Child Trainer bike behind her Dad or on her own 20-inch purple bike. Either way,... [Read more...]
A Fascinating Canal Tour & Museum in Augusta, Georgia
April 5, 2014 by Dana Ticknor · Leave a Comment
On your way through Georgia? Consider stopping for a few days to check out Augusta! Our family spent a few weeks camping there last month while helping with disaster relief cleanup efforts after ice storms crippled the area. While we were there, we found so much new to see and do! Augusta has an incredibly diverse downtown area, with lots of family friendly destinations within a few blocks. One of our favorites, was the Augusta Canal Petersburg Boat Tour and Discovery Center. Originally built in 1854 to provide hydro power for the textile mills that were a vital part of the economic growth of Augusta, the canal still provides hydro power; the Enterprise Mill building, which now houses the canal museum (Discovery Center) as well as numerous other offices, produces all of it's own power and sells surplus to the electric company thanks to harnessing the canal water force. Our day there started with a 45 minute guided tour of the Augusta Canal in a Petersburg boat. On the tour,... [Read more...]
Birthday Freebies Galore!
April 4, 2014 by Cynthia Baum · Leave a Comment
How do you usually celebrate your birthday? How does a free steak dinner on your birthday sound? Many places offer freebies on your birthday—the steak dinner is free at Black Angus for new prime members, plus you get a free dessert when signing up here. With my birthday right around the corner, I like to start thinking about what special things I want to do that day and especially what free stuff I can get, just for it being my birthday! For one thing, you can get quite a few free food items on your birthday, but even more importantly, you can get free trips to fun places like Catalina Island or a free lift ticket at Big Bear Mountain Resort. Just by showing your CA ID or Driving license on your birthday, you can obtain these items for free (normally costing upwards of $50). Join Birthday Clubs online for restaurants and stores, and they usually offer a free entrée, dessert, or other item for free on your birthday. In fact, Chick-fil-A just emailed me about a free yummy Chocolate... [Read more...]

March 30, 2014 by Cynthia Baum · 1 Comment
Once you have experienced Montana, a mountainous, scenic land with the biggest skies you have ever seen; only then will you fully appreciate all that it has to offer and understand why they call it "The Big Sky Country."

A.J. Balukoff gave this explanation when asked why he's running for governor as a Democrat in Republican-dominated Idaho:
First and foremost, I am running as an Idahoan. I am a Democrat because the values of the Democratic Party most closely align with my own. I've always sought the best solutions in business, and supported people I considered the best candidates, regardless of their party. As governor, when faced with difficult challenges, I will pursue meaningful solutions by bringing together community members, local leaders, and key stakeholders in any issue, regardless of party labels.

"This country did not just dodge a bullet ― we dodged a cannon ball."
That's how Nicholas Akins, CEO of American Electric Power (AEP), described the situation last winter when the polar vortex hit the United States and put tremendous strain on the power grid.
John Kemp at Reuters writes how the power grid barely held up to the cold temperatures and notes how a reduction in fuel diversity played a role:
Since the late 1990s, most new power generating units have been built to burn natural gas. Unlike coal or oil, gas is not usually stored on site, so generators rely on real-time deliveries from the gas pipeline network.
In many cases, generators relied on purchasing extra gas in the spot market to meet peaking electricity demand. But with gas consumption also hitting record levels, generators were unable to contract for sufficient volumes and arrange for delivery through an already congested pipeline network.
The increase in gas-fired generation has introduced an unanticipated and dangerous link between the gas and electricity systems - with the risk of common failure.
According to NERC [North American Electric Reliability Corporation], gas supply problems led to losses of 620 MW of generation in the Midwest, 3,300 MW in the Northeast, 11,000 MW in the Middle Atlantic states, 2,000 MW in the Southeast and around 2,000 MW in Texas.
Thankfully coal-fired power plants were still available to support the grid, as I wrote in April [emphasis mine]:
AEP generates electricity in the region, and company CEO, Nicholas Akins told shareholders on a conference call last week that 89% of his company's coal-fired plants scheduled to be shut down in 2015 were running during the cold snap.
But what about the next severe cold snap? Federal policies like EPA's proposed carbon rules could mean those coal-fired plants won't be there to keep the lights on and heat homes.
This is why electric resource diversity is critical. Since natural gas is used for both electricity and heating, and regions like the Northeast have natural gas "infrastructure constraints," killing coal use will put more stress on natural gas infrastructure and make the power grid more vulnerable.
The lesson to be learned from the polar vortex, FirstEnergy CEO Tony Alexander told an audience at the U.S. Chamber in April, is "We need to maintain a diverse fleet – including real generating assets such as coal, nuclear and natural gas – to ensure reliable, affordable service over the long term."
No matter how the winter will be this year, we need federal policies in place that maintain fuel diversity and the security of our electric grid.
Having an outstanding grain harvest is a great… unless you can't get it to market. The Keystone XL pipeline can help.
These headlines illustrate the situation Great Plains farmers face:Williston Herald: "Local farms feeling the pressure of delayed shipments" The Hill: "ND oil trains cause large backlogs for grain shipments" Reuters: "Trains for grains scarce on the U.S. Plains" New York Times: "Grain Piles Up, Waiting for a Ride, as Trains Move North Dakota Oil" Seattle Times: "Oil trains crowd out grain shipments to NW ports"
With its delays, the Obama administration has created a situation where farmers watch in frustration as oil cars loaded with Bakken and Canadian crude pass by as their grain sits in silos.
On the recent Keystone XL Lost Opportunities Tour, Mona Madler, executive director of the Southeast Montana Area Revitalization Team (SMART) in Baker, MT--where a pipeline that will carry Bakken oil will connect to the Keystone XL-- told me that farmers are "dumping grain on the ground," because they can't get it to market. Tom Kauer a community leader in Winner, SD said, "Millions of bushels are sitting on the ground."
Senators Thune and Klobuchar have asked Secretary Vilsack to look into the backlogs agricultural producers have faced, but part of the answer has been staring at us in the face for six years: Approve the Keystone XL pipeline.
Heritage Foundation economist Nicolas Loris explains:
The Keystone XL pipeline, in particular, would help carry significant amounts of crude oil. According to the North Dakota Pipeline Authority, "Bakken rail outflow capacity totaled 965,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) at the end of 2013, compared to 515,000 bbl/d of pipeline capacity." Keystone XL would help to minimize this problem.
TransCanada has said that Keystone XL could accept up to 100,000 barrels of Bakken oil for transport.
Will building the Keystone XL pipeline solve all these transportation problems? No, but it can be part of a solution. Until the pipeline is approved, millions of bushels of grain continue sitting in silos. Talk about a lost opportunity.
As it has developed its proposed carbon regulations, EPA has avoided states like West Virginia that depend on coal not only for electricity but for jobs. Because the agency has ignored them, a few hundred coal miners and their supporters marched to EPA in protest of proposed regulations.
"They won't come to the coalfields, so we need to continue to bring the coalfields to them and let them know the amount of unemployment we've seen," United Mine Workers president Cecil Roberts said.
More than 500 active and retired coal miners from West Virginia and other parts of Appalachia delivered that message to Washington Tuesday. The protest is the most recent demonstration against the clean power rule which would change the rules for emissions on existing coal fired power plants in the United States.
Mine Workers President Cecil Roberts said their message is the new regulations are crippling the economy of Appalachia, but it will also stunt growth nationally.
Last night, Roberts debated EPA's proposed carbon regulations with MSNBC's Chris Hayes. In June, the union estimated that that 75,000 coal mining jobs would be lost by 2020.
Union opposition to EPA's proposed carbon regulations sprouted up from the moment they were released. Union leaders like Edwin Hill, president of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) have pointed out that the proposed regulations will mean a less-reliable electrical grid, and in July, thousands of union workers traveled to Pittsburgh to speak out against the proposed regulations.
Coal is an abundant, affordable, reliable fuel. We can't afford to push it out of our energy mix.

— America's Power (@AmericasPower) October 7, 2014
It's been six years since TransCanada submitted its first application to the U.S. State Department to build the Keystone XL pipeline. The administration's delays and the opposition's distortions have made national headlines and have been fodder for Washington politics. But what's actually happening in the communities along the planned route? How are they being impacted by the pipeline limbo that the administration has subjected them to for the past six years?
To find out, the U.S. Chamber sent a team to travel the 875-mile route in the United States and talk to people along the way. The team started in Morgan, Montana, where the pipeline will cross the Canadian border and ended in Steele City, Nebraska, where it will connect to America's existing pipeline network. In every community, the message was the same: Keystone delays equal lost opportunities.
Delays equal lost property taxes. The State Department estimates that rural counties in Montana, South Dakota, and Nebraska would collect more than $55 million in property taxes in the first year of the pipeline's operation. Anticipating the influx of revenue, city officials planned and voters approved a brand new elementary school in Glasgow, Montana. But with Keystone revenue in doubt, the school still hasn't been built. The story is the same all along the route—projects to improve infrastructure and education have been put on hold or jeopardized.
Delays equal lost jobs and growth. In the three pipeline states, the project would generate 11,600 direct and indirect jobs, $391 million in wages, and $648 million in economic activity, according to the State Department. Businesses have been counting on new workers with good incomes to help lift their economies and invigorate their communities—they're still waiting.
Delays equal lost economic development potential. Several places see Keystone as their chance to become something more. Baker, Montana, near the Bakken shale boom, believes that a planned on-ramp for shale oil to the pipeline will help cement the town's role as a regional energy hub. Winner, South Dakota, hopes that electricity infrastructure needed for Keystone will attract new businesses and allow for wind power so that it can diversify its economy.
These communities are acutely aware of what's at stake—but Keystone delays have implications for all of us. Nationally, 42,000 new jobs and $3.4 billion in economic activity are on the line. Our ability to enhance energy security and reduce our reliance on foreign oil is at stake.
All of these opportunities can still be seized. But first we've got to approve and build the pipeline.
Along with lots of oil, North Dakota's shale boom has also produced a lot of natural gas. Unfortunately the state doesn't have the necessary pipelines to transport the gas. Instead, it's being burned or flared. This flaring can been seen from space.
State regulators and the energy industry want to reduce flaring—potential revenue is literally burning up—by building pipelines. However, the federal government's cumbersome infrastructure permitting process is keeping them from fixing the problem, Reuters reports:
Energy companies have been preparing since June for the deadline requiring them to capture 74 percent of natural gas extracted alongside crude oil from thousands of wells. The standards get tougher in January.
But the energy industry and state officials say they are bound to fall short of the goal through 2015, flaring gas in excess of targets and consequently having to trim oil production to comply with penalties built into the new standards.
The main reason, according to Reuters interviews and reviews of regulations, is simple: a Byzantine web of state and federal agencies who must sign off on new pipelines.
The pipelines are caught between state officials whose top energy policy goal is to cut flaring, and federal agencies, which weigh historical and ecological issues, including protection of habitats for rare plants and animals.
The federal holdups are "a major disappointment," said Lynn Helms, head of the North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources. "It will make it harder to meet that 74-percent goal."
Rob Port at North Dakota's SayAnythingBlog.com observes, "The fixes for those problems are made almost impossible by bureaucratic red tape."
The Institute for 21st Century Energy's Energy Works for Us report explains how improving our energy infrastructure a modernized permitting process:
New infrastructure is needed to expand and modernize aging systems and to take advantage of new sources of energy, particularly shale gas, shale oil, oil sands from Canada, and renewables, but an unpredictable regulation impedes investment in energy projects of all types. For all forms of energy, regulatory and fiscal policies need to be more predictable to accelerate capital investment.
Instead of being a barrier, the federal permitting process need better coordination and streamlining to speed up the construction of energy infrastructure projects like natural gas pipelines.

You are here
Thanksgiving's just a couple days away, but we already know what we're thankful for—all of the amazing fans who have turned "DC All Access" into a success! So to thank you, we present our special Thanksgiving week episode! In this installment, we give you an early look at "Initiation," the upcoming Batman: Arkham Origins DLC.
The dynamic duo of Tiffany Smith and Blair Herter are back with a Thanksgiving week episode of "DC All Access." In this week's episode, we see one of the world's biggest comic book collections and give a lucky fan the chance to start their own awesome collection with a special "starter pack" of New 52 hardcovers.
Welcome back for another installment of Preview Monday!
If you caught Blair Herter's conversation with Geoff Johns in this morning's new episode of "DC All Access" (or if you've been following the entertainment news over the past few months), you know that DC Entertainment currently has five television shows in development.
For this week's special edition of 5.2 Reasons, "DC All Access" host Blair Herter offers up his reasons why you should pay attention to DC's new weekly webseries. (Hey, when we say we're giving them all access to DC Entertainment, we mean it!)
It's Thanksgiving week here in the States, and we can't wait to carve into the turkey and cut off a slice of delicious pumpkin pie. Or two. Or maybe three. (Hey, Thanksgiving only comes once a year, okay?!
Ah, Krypton… Maybe it was a nice place to visit, but if you're a human, you probably wouldn't want to live there. And you definitely don't want it returning and destroying all things we hold dear. Unfortunately, that's more or less what's happening this month in the Superman family of comics.
Another Tuesday, another awesome new episode of DC All Access! This week, DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns talks to us about the five new DC TV shows that are currently in development.
Welcome back for another installment of Preview Monday! This week, we're giving you exclusive first looks at ANIMAL MAN #25 and FABLES #135!
Look! Up in the sky! (Well, okay, on our Youtube page and website.) It's a brand new episode of "DC All Access," and viewers are in for some super new scoops.

Big Boi - Follow Us
Artist: Big Boi
Featuring: Vonnegutt
Producer: Salaam Remi
Album: Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 25 votes )
To say that Big Boi's been doing big things in the Booth lately would be a massive understatement – in fact, anticipation has been running so high for the Outkast member's forthcoming solo set that we've decided to stop featuring any new tracks, for fear that our readers will get overstimulated. OK, OK, just kidding, I totally made that up. We'd never pass up featuring a track as fresh as Follow Us, the latest leaked cut off the long-awaited project. Backed by the stark, funk-i-fied boardwork of heavyweight producer Salaam Remi, the ATLien serves up all the hot rhymes and breakneck flows fans could ask for, ending the record be promising to "...put these lyrics up your ass so far you'll never get the mic out." Ouch. To top it all off, Purple Ribbon Representative rapper Kyle Lucas and his group, Vonnegutt, hop on board for an understated but catchy chorus. If you're a fan of high-quality Southern hip-hop, I'm sure you already have Sir Lucious Left Foot's July 6, release date circled on your calendar. And if you're not, well, I have no idea why you're still reading this.

No charges against Claremont middle school teacher in alleged assault
The teacher, Tamara Lever, was placed on administrative leave following the assault, pending the outcome of an internal investigation by the Claremont School Administrative Unit.
In a press release Thursday Police Chief Alexander Scott said, "The allegation is that the student was fooling with and tossing a cleaning cloth and in response to this conduct, the teacher took the cloth and smacked it against the student's face and stated, 'How do you like it?'"
Scott wrote that while the alleged conduct may have violated school policy and was "not an exercise in sound judgment" the facts do not support a criminal prosecution.
The Sullivan County Attorney's office cooperated in the investigation with police and have decided not to proceed with a criminal prosecution, he said.
At that time, Lever remained on paid leave.

Almost every designer knows or should know that white space refers to the portion between the elements of a design and it is separated in active white space, which is intentionally left blank for the purpose of the design, and the passive white space, which is the byproduct of the design (for example: the space between the letters). Some designers don't consider white space that important and you can see this best in their designs which most of the times are cluttered.

Jools Watsham's prediction of a "February-ish" release for Dementium II seems to have been right on target -- though Nintendo's release schedule wasn't. Rather than the February 2 date listed on that schedule, The company announced that the DS horror FPS will ship in North America on February 16 of next year. Europe will be subject to the horror two weeks later on March 5.
SouthPeak reports that some Dementium II posters are still available to those who pre-order and send pictures of their receipts. Presumably more people will take advantage of the offer now that they now when the game they're pre-ordering will be released.

Opera in Cinema Presents LOHENGRIN, 1/20
Opera in Cinema presents LOHENGRIN, Teatro alla Scala, Milan, Italy, an Opera in Three Acts, music by Richard Wagner, Captured live in performance on Opening Night, December 7, 2012, Sunday, January 20, 2013, Sung in German with English subtitles. Running time - 275 minutes, including two intermissions.
The first production of "Lohengrin" was in Weimar, Germany, on August 28, 1850 at the Staatskapelle Weimar under the direction of Franz Liszt, a close friend and early supporter of Richard Wagner. Liszt chose the date in honor of Weimar's most famous citizen, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, born August 28 in 1749. Wagner's deeply romantic opera about a chivalrous but anonymous knight marked his first exploration of leitmotifs, a musical innovation that changed the history of opera. "Lohengrin" was an immediate popular success.
Music and Libretto: Richard Wagner; Conductor: Daniel Barenboim; Director: Claus Guth; Sets and costumes: Christian Schmidt; Lighting: Olaf Winter; Video: Andy Müller; Dramaturgy: Ronny Dietrich.
The cast features: Heinrich der Vogler: René Pape; Lohengrin: Jonas Kaufmann; Elsa von Brabant: Annette Dasch; Friedrich von Telramund: Tomas Tomasson; Ortrud: Evelyn Herlitzius; Der Heerrufer des Königs: Zeljko Lucic
In 10th century Antwerp, Elsa von Brabant stands accused by Count Telramund of murdering her young brother Gottfried in order to become Duchess. Telramund, the late child-Duke's guardian, asks King Heinrich der Vogler to name him Duke. Unable to decide, the King defers to God's judgment through ordeal by combat between Telramund and Elsa's defender. When asked who will be her champion, she describes a knight she has dreamt of. A boat, drawn by a swan, appears bearing the Knight, who agrees to be Elsa's champion on condition that she never ask his name or origins. The battle ensues; the Knight wins but spares Telramund's life. Elsa is declared innocent, and the King grants the Knight Elsa's hand in marriage.
A Herald announces that Telramund and his wife the pagan witch Ortrud are banished. The Knight has been offered the Dukedom, but has declined, preferring the title "Protector of Brabant." After their marriage ceremony, Elsa and the Knight are escorted to the bridal chamber where Elsa, fearing the prospect of which Ortrud had warned her --- that the Knight could desert her at any time since his identity is unknown --- asks her husband the fatal question; before the Knight can answer, Telramund and co-conspirators burst in and attack him. After killing Telramund the Knight takes Elsa to the King and reveals his mystery: He is Lohengrin, Knight of the Holy Grail, son of King Parsifal sent to protect an unjustly accused woman. Now that his identity has been revealed, he must retire from all human society.
The swan reappears; Lohengrin tells Elsa that if she had kept her oath her lost brother would have returned, since the swan was actually Gottfried, transformed by a curse of Ortrud. Lohengrin prays, Gottfied returns to become Duke. A heavenly dove descends and bears Lohengrin away to the castle of the Holy Grail, whereupon Elsa, stricken with grief, dies.

But after a decent start he gradually moved up the order with some hard racing, including a muscular pass on Caterhams Kamui Kobayashi. After the race, Bianchi was understandably delighted that Marussias efforts had finally yielded a tangible reward. I am just incredibly happy, but first of all I have to pay credit to everyone at the Marussia F1 Team for making this...

Does anyone know of any commercial examples of this style besides those listed in the BJCP?
The problem with Ordinary English Bitters, Milds, etc. is that in order to be true to style, those beers should be hand pumped from the keg or cask, a flavor that is very hard to duplicate in the bottle. Think draft beer Vs. bottle.
But, some of my favorites are Woodford's Wherry, or Adnam's Southwold Bitter.
Fermenter 1 - Mynx and Maple's Too Wild Mild
Fermenter 2 - 2 Hearted Clone
Bottle conditioning - Nothing
Drinking - Aged Porter, APA
Goose Island's Honker's Ale is said to be a bitter. I've never had it, though.
What exactly is the difference between a British "bitters" and normal IPAs, etc.?

|ESPN.com: News
|[Print without images]
As Renee Brown prepares to announce the third round of the WNBA draft, it's been a hub of activity at ESPN headquarters. Media press conferences, photo shoots, video chats, and phone interviews, but the players are prepared for it all, right down to their shoes.
Jasmine Thomas, the Duke standout who was drafted with the last pick of the first round by the defending champion Seattle Storm, was holding her heels in her hand.
"They told us that we were going to have a do the circuit and we were going to need comfortable shoes," Thomas said. "They told us to bring flats."
And everyone listened, including Ohio State star Jantel Lavender, who was wearing a smart suit and a bright-white new pair of sneakers.
Shoe choice was only one of the many pieces of advice and counsel that the players received since they arrived in Connecticut on Friday evening. Monday's Draft was the culmination of a weekend spent getting ready to be a professional basketball player.
Friday's opening-night orientation was followed by Saturday's 7 a.m.-6 p.m. session that included such topics of finances, officiating, media training and a little fashion advice. Sunday, the players participated in a clinic on the ESPN campus that drew nearly 100 local kids. And then came Monday.
"I was cool, calm and collected until they started the program and my mom sat down and coach [Sherri] Coale sat down," said now-former Oklahoma guard Danielle Robinson, taken with the sixth pick by the San Antonio Silver Stars. "That's when I really got nervous."
Stanford's Jeanette Pohlen said she felt her legs wobble when her name was called as the No. 9 pick by the Indiana Fever. "It's really surreal," Pohlen said. "My next thought was 'Alright, gotta go make this team now.' It's not guaranteed."
Pohlen returns to Indiana, the site of the Final Four, where Stanford's national championship hopes ended with a 63-62 loss to eventual champ Texas A&M. Pohlen finished the game on the bench with an ankle sprain, which happened under the basket with less than four seconds left. "It's doing well," she said.
Duke coach Joanne P. McCallie was in the family and friends viewing room smiling broadly when Thomas' name was called.
"Just to think about these women, seeing them since they were so little in AAU tournaments," McCallie said. "It's not just your particular player for me, but to see them all. They all grew up so fast and they are realizing a life-long dream, and there's a really great energy in that room. Everyone is cheering for good things to happen for everyone. This is really a day where it's all good."
Robinson's mother, Denise, was relaxing in the sun on the patio adjacent to the viewing room after her daughter's future was settled. "The transition from her last college basketball game to getting her ready for professional basketball, it's a very short window," Denise Carr-Robinson said. "Getting her mindset ready for 'Danielle, you are now responsible for yourself.' Things like 'When you get emails, open them and read them.'"
Carr-Robinson said she got "100 pictures" from the mall while her daughter picked out an outfit -- "I was getting a fashion show," she said. After she arrived over the weekend, her daughter came to her hotel room and sat on her bed.
"And she reminded me when she was a little girl and I told her she was going to Disneyland," Carr-Robinson said. "It was just an overwhelming, excited [feeling]. This whole event, she's been that little girl again."

|SCALABLE AFFINITIZED STATE MANAGEMENT - A state affinitized system comprises worker computing devices uniquely affinitized with one or more states such that only those worker computing devices maintain local copies of the states with which they are affinitized. Requests and data relevant to a state are directed to the worker computing device affinitized with that state, such as by front-end computing devices. A centralized persistent storage can maintain a copy of each state and can modify the states in response to newly received information in the same manner as the worker computing devices. Such maintenance can be performed by coalescer computing devices, which can also derive second order data from the states in the centralized persistent storage, which can be further added to the state and also communicated to the worker computing device affinitized with that state. Crawler computing devices can obtain additional information for incorporation into states from network-based information repositories and services.
|ENTERPRISE SEARCH OVER PRIVATE AND PUBLIC DATA - A unified search service may collect information related to an enterprise from at least one of publicly available data and private enterprise data. In some implementations, crowd sourcing may be used to determine a source list of one or more sources of information.

Further, in some implementations, a public index may be generated from the public data, and one or more affiliation indexes may be generated from the private enterprise data. For example, a first affiliation index may contain confidential enterprise information, while a second affiliation index may contain non-confidential enterprise information. A user's affiliation to the enterprise may be taken into consideration when determining which indexes to use when responding to a search request from the user.
|Real-time Monitoring of Public Sentiment - The subject disclosure is directed towards a real-time or near real-time sentiment monitoring service. A set of rules such as keywords and data sources to crawl is provided to the monitoring service, which crawls the sources to obtain sentiment-related data for an entity, such as a corporation or product.
