Q: On a lighter note, aside from pizza, what's your next favourite recovery meal?
A: I'm a sushi fan. Awesome healing powers. Burritos are great, too. Seeing as those are largely not accessible options at the immediate end of a race, especially in European competitions, I'll go with chocolate milk and bananas.
Q: Towards the end of As Good As Gold, you had a race schedule of 13 events in 3 weeks. That's a LOT of cycling, not to mention the travel between countries. In your training and racing, how do you prevent burnout and stay injury free?
A: It's all about the Big Picture. Travel is hard and time zones are not always our friends, but when I'm drifting in and out of REM state on an airport floor in somewhere in the middle of rural Colombia, I try to remember how lucky I am to live this life of athleticism and exploration. It all comes down to perspective. As for burnout and injury free living, I firmly believe in taking two months off in Nov and Dec. I still move my body, but I don't train. At 37, this helps more than hinders.
Q: Looking all of the setbacks your quest for the Beijing 2008 games – the exhaustion, the rejection, being pushed out of the running for qualifying points – there were several times when it appeared you weren't going to get to the Olympics at all. I'm sure a lot of people would have given up. You however, are one of the most persistent people I know! What sort of mental strategies do you use to block the negativity out and keep yourself moving forward?
A: Again, the Big Picture. I was given a chance to see if I could get to the Olympics, with all finances covered. To give up would have been a slap in the face to every athlete out there struggling their way to greatness. And there's a lot of them! I know because I was one. And then I got a huge gift that merged my two passions, sport and writing. Giving up never entered the picture.
Q: From the beginning of the book, you make it very clear that earning a living as an athlete is not as glamorous as most people think. Aside from this, is there anything else you wish the general population knew about what it's like to be a professional cyclist chasing Olympic dreams?
A: There are a lot of stories to tell in that regard. I could go on and on about the struggles female cyclists face in terms of salaries and equality and politics, so I'll cover it with one blanket statement: getting to the Olympics isn't all about talent. There are a lot of hoops to jump through, and the current system for qualification in cycling needs an overhaul. I'm okay with the fact I didn't make the Games, but I'm bothered how hard it is for some nations to break into cycling at the Olympic level. The current system under the UCI and IOC does not make it viable for smaller nations or poorer countries to get their deserving athletes to the Games. I have ideas on how to change that, but as always, the hard part will be finding people who will listen to me yammer on.
Q: In your downtime, (that is, if you have any), how do you relax?
A: Still searching for that answer. Love reading and watching indie films, but when they're really good, it just gets me all fired up again.
Q: What's up next on your race calendar?
A: World Championships are in Limburg, Holland. I race Sept 18 and 22nd in the time trial and road race. After that, my husband and I are going to cycle–recreationally!–in Italy to take in the sights. And then I'll shut 'er down for the season.
Q: Do you have any words of wisdom to offer other women that dream of rising to the top of their sports?
In the words of Nike (likely the ad department and not the goddess): Just do it. I really believe all we're supposed to do in life is try. Start the journey and don't worry if you make it or not. Don't be afraid of failing, it doesn't really exist. Trying always trumps failure.

The immune system can be programmed to recognize and destroy cancerous cells infected by viruses or affected by transforming genetic or epigenetic alterations. If properly activated, a specific immune attack can lead to a long-term remission or even cure. We are witnessing the renaissance of the concept of immune-mediated cancer therapy, and the need of predictive models for its preclinical assessment is at an all-time high.
Cambridge Healthtech Institute's Tumor Models for Cancer Immunotherapy is designed to feature and discuss cutting-edge complex immunocompetent models for cancer immunotherapy research, as well as to present case studies of their successful applications.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The principal and teachers have great communication between parents and students alike.
This school is great. There was great communication between teachers and the principal to the parents. They are constantly trying to improve the grounds and equipment to keep it interresting for the students.
I met some of the most caring staff and teachers in many years of being involved in elementary schools at Oasis!
Both of my children have had great experiences at oasis. Mrs. Balthis (3rd grade) is the best teacher we have ever come across. She is so understanding and helpful with every student no matter what their needs are. My children absolutely love school and have scored extremely high academically. The work is challenging yet not overwelming for the students.
Nice, caring teachers and staff. We have been very pleased with our experience here.
Our move to the Oasis neighborhood was the best one we could have ever made for our children. The teachers are very understanding and helpful. The office staff is very informative on any questions or concerns a parent needs help with. We moved into the area in Sept. '03 just after the school year got started, the teachers wasted no time in getting my children up to speed on the happenings in the classroom. They also provided the support our children needed when moving into a new school, by the end of the year both of our children had grown in the academic as well as their social skills. Thanks Mrs. Campbell (5th) and Mrs. Thalacker (6th)!!!
I liked the way this school is set up. Good parent/teacher involvment.
The teachers here are real good and the staff office staff is nice.
We are locating to Peoria from San Diego and the reason we chose Peoria was because of the rave reviews we hear about Oasis School
Overall, the staff at Oasis has been wonderful for our children. I do not feel that the curent principal provides adequate leadership for the staff and community. The former assistant principal was definitely the 'go to' person if you had a concern!
Oasis has dedicated, caring teachers who take the time and effort to teach and foster student's growth and development. We have been so pleased with Oasis and could not ask for a better school for our children to attend.
My child attended Oasis Elementary for 1st grade with MS. Young. MS. Young proved to be an excellent instructor for my child. My child's learning and social skills improved drastically, where they had been lax before. MS. Young brought out the best in my daughter. She was crying the last day of school, when she realized that she would not have the same instructor. My daughter is anxiously waiting the start of 2nd grade with Mrs. White, so she can 'keep learning amazing new things', as my daughter put it. The only negative thing I would have to say is that they would offer an after school extra-curricular programs for children that are younger in Art, music, science and reading.
My son attends the Community Preschool Program at Oasis and I could not be happier with this program. Mrs. Perez and Mrs. Hailey are absolutely wonderful teachers and my son loves them both. All of the activites are age appropriate. They read great stories, do wonderful art projects and they go on neat field trips, and they have a good dose of ouside play time each day. The teachers are both very open and communicative with all of the parents and they are the same with the students. As a parent I am made to feel very welcome at all times in the classroom and Mrs. Perez regurlarly informs me about how my son's day progressed. I was happy to learn that the principal is very supportive of the preschool program. I commend her for this because it is a great program. I'm sad to say, however, that others in the school are not so supportive of the program. For example the preschool children are not allowed to use the library. And the art teacher has refused to come into the preschool classroom. While these two sitations point to the fact that not everyone on campus is supportive of the preschool, it is a great program nonetheless, and I highly recommend it.
The most outstanding problem is that they let children as young as 5 years old walk around the open style school campus unattended by an adult is certain situations every day!!!The principal has been found in most situations to be uncooperative. She will tell you what you want to hear, then do what she wants and then says that you must have misunderstood her.

DUI Charge
Police said that they responded to a report of a minor one-vehicle accident having occurred at 4 Riverside Road about 2:05 am on November 30.
Police said that after investigating, they charged motorist Megan Machado, 28, of West Haven with driving under the influence and with making a restricted turn.
Following processing, Machado was released on $100 bail for a December 17 court appearance.
The dispatchers at the Newtown Emergency Communications Center at 3 Main Street report the following fire calls and the responders:
Wednesday, November 27: 9:08 am, investigation, 3 Simm Lane, Hook & Ladder responded; 11:01 am, medical assist, Bonnie Brae Drive, Hook & Ladder responded; 12:05 pm, alarm, 2 Turnberry Lane, Sandy Hook responded.
With Depot Day fast approaching, The Newtown Fund still has five families who need to be adopted this holiday season.
Prior to an open press conference conducted by several elected Newtown officials and community leaders to discuss issues around the first anniversary of the Sandy Hook tragedy, those individuals sat down with The Newtown Bee for an exclusive video interview with the hope that it would be an opportunity for them to speak directly to residents, readers, and visitors to NewtownBee.com.
UPDATE, December 6, 2013: The Ram Pasture tree lighting has been postponed to Wednesday, December 11, due to the weather of Friday, December 6. Same schedule (festivities to begin at 6:30, tree lighting at 7 pm). Police parking and traffic rules will follow the original schedule as well, from 5 to 8 pm.
Hook & Ladder firefighters lowered the flag on the Main Street flagpole this morning, to honor the late First Selectman Jack Rosenthal.
Mr Rosenthal died on November 26. Calling hours are tonight, from 4 to 8 pm at Honan Funeral Home. A memorial service is planned for 11:30 am Thursday, December 5, at Newtown Meeting House.
Interim Superintendent of Schools John Reed sent a letter to school district parents and staff members on Tuesday, December 3, in anticipation of the Wednesday, December 4, release of local 911 calls made to the Newtown Police Department during the events of 12/14 at Sandy Hook School.
In the letter, Dr Reed explained the recordings will be released at 2 pm, and will be available through the offices of Cohen and Wolf in Danbury.
HARTFORD — Governor Dannel P. Malloy has announced that first responders and other state employees who were significantly involved with the direct response to the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School last year will be credited with forty hours of compensatory time under an agreement reached between the state and six unions representing the state employees.
Recordings of the Emergency 911 telephone calls received by Newtown police from people at Sandy Hook School on the morning of December 14, 2012, reflect tension and fear in the callers' voices as they urged police to rapidly respond to 12 Dickinson Drive to help them during Adam Lanza's attack on the school.
The town released the 911 recordings on Wednesday after blocking their disclosure for nearly one year due to privacy concerns.
The Newtown Foundation announced Monday, December 2, that four-time Grammy Award winner Carole King will perform at the December 12 vigil in Washington, DC, to honor the more than 30,000 people who die of gun violence every year in the United States.

My Maddy is 6 years old and a HUGE girl -170 lbs. and the sweetest girl in my world! Trouble is... She is miserable with the itching.

I simply can't afford that plus the expensive dog food, plus continuous yard treatments, etc. can you recommend a flea pill that is affordable? She is also on prion for incontinence.

is an oral pill used to treat fleas. It is a daily treatment and only works for
24-36 hours, after this time you will need to administer a further tablet. You
can administer Capstar anytime that you see fleas on Maddy but do not give her
more than one treatment of this per day.
If people have good results with the medication that they are currently
using then I don't usually recommend that they change it. Unfortunately, we
don't stock any allergy pills. I recommend speaking to your vet to see if they
can help reduce the cost of the treatment.....View our vet's reply

They're here!!! Details about the new Sailor Moon anime, Sailor Moon Crystal, are finally here! Toei Animation has just released the first key image for the new series, revealing that the animation will look completely different than the first anime that has captivated millions of fans around the world.

Many of our readers may be aware that Japanese consumers are quite fond of unique and creative Kit Kat products and flavors. But now, Nestle Japan has come out with what could be described as not just a new flavor but a new "species" of Kit Kat. And why are we calling it a new species? Well, it's because you'll need to do just a little bit of cooking to fully enjoy these Kit Kats. Yes, Nestle Japan's newest Kit Kat offering, the "Bake 'N Tasty Mini Kit Kats Custard Pudding Flavor" (Kit Kat Mini Yaite Oishi Purin Aji) is a Kit Kat that you heat in a toaster oven before eating! After hearing that, the only question we had was, of course, "How soon can we get our hands on some of these?"

In a world where leather-clad gang leaders rule the streets and the authorities value bureaucracy over justice, modern-day society is on its knees.

Domino's Pizza, one of the world's most well-known home delivery pizza services, has recently released a new luxury pizza in Japan- an exclusive to the pizza fast food market.
Priced at 5,800 yen (about US$66), however, you'd be right to think twice before parting with your cash; after all, this is essentially just a circle of baked dough with fancy toppings. Sure, after piling all of your favourite toppings onto a pizza pie, one might hit the 5,000 yen mark, but a large-sized pizza starting at 5,800 yen?!
This had better be something very special…

Crushing Friends No Longer an Issue: Hiroshima University Students Invent Ultra-Soft Car

Dec 20, 2012
Tired of mowing down pedestrians and scratching up your car while cruising around town? You, my friend, need a supersoft cushion car!
Developed by Hiroshima University, this electric car is completely surrounded by ultra-strong air-filled cushions that protect both those inside and outside the car, meaning that as well as being environmentally friendly it transforms life-destroying collisions into mere belly bounces from the Stay Puft Marshmallow man.

Back in the 90s, I was a huge fan of the Iron Chef when it got imported to North American television. Although I was normally uninterested in cooking programs, something about the drama and pageantry that went on in Kitchen Stadium struck a chord.
The show was even imported to western countries who tuned it to suit their own tastes, and a lot of others around the world got into those weekly culinary competitions.
So when Fuji TV announced the return of Iron Chef to primetime television, a lot of buzz was generated. However, their two-hour debut claimed just a 10% share of the ratings, half of what the original program regularly held. It got worse from there as later episodes slunk to around 7%.
So what happened to our beloved Iron Chef? Everyone's got an opinion and so do we.
Generally speaking, cafes are good places to grab a cup of coffee and relax a bit, but a truly great cafe will have such delicious food and such a chill atmosphere that you can while away hours in complete contentment. If you are looking for a place like that in Tokyo, let us introduce you to Shinjuku's Brooklyn Parlor. Read More

Nintendo Wii U: Our Impressions of the New Console's Biggest Launch Titles
Philip Kendall
Nov 29, 2012
We've had a Wii U in the RocketNews24 office, not to mention out on the shinkansen bullet train, for about a week now. Despite being made by a Japanese company, the console isn't available in Japan for another 10 days, and many Japanese and foreigners alike are clamouring to know how the new machine works and, most importantly, whether games on the platform are really the magical experience Nintendo would like us to believe.
We picked up New Super Mario Bros U, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, ZombiU and Nintendo Land along with our import machine, and are happy to say from the outset that these are all genuinely good titles. This isn't a review as such, but since we have a number of lifelong gamers on the RocketNews24 team, especially our main man Kuzo, we were keen to share our impressions with you regarding how the four biggest titles launching alongside the Wii U show off the new console, not to mention which of the games are most likely to satisfy once they arrive in your sweaty little hands come December 8.

New Touch Panel Technology Provides Intelligent Feedback, "Like pushing real buttons!"
Philip Kendall
Nov 6, 2012
At last week's Digital Contents Expo 2012 held in Tokyo, cutting edge technology company Kyocera unveiled something that will no doubt appeal to tablet and smartphone users the world over, potentially changing the way we use our modern-day gadgets forever.
The company has produced an intelligent touch screen that mimics a variety of sensations, from soft and squidy jelly, to rigid, clicky buttons. What does this mean for handsome folk you and me? It means all the speed and convenience of touch screens, but with fewer inaccuracies and silly– albeit amusing- typing mistakes. It could also mean that our beloved touch screens will become far more versatile in the future, not to mention becoming accessible to a much larger audience.

New Playstation 3 Commercial Packs a Nasty Little Surprise, Small Children Now Wary of Plastic Boxes
Philip Kendall
Oct 3, 2012
Just before this year's Tokyo Game Show, Sony lifted the lid on its newly-modelled Playstation 3 console.
While many of us were hoping for even a tiny snippet of news on the next generation of consoles, Sony is still busy squeezing the few last drops of juice out of its multi-million-selling game machine, and, in an effort to cut production costs and shift a few more units before going next-gen, has somehow managed to shave a few more inches off the console's size, giving it a facelift in the process.
Eager to show off their newest toy, a brand new ad campaign for the console hit Japanese TV late last week, drawing consumers' attention to the machine's snazzy new lines and bragging about its smaller size.
And then something a little bit unexpected happens. Read More

We can honestly say that this has been some of the best quality accommodation we have ever stayed in on holiday, UK or abroad! The website almost doesn't quite do it justice. The surroundings are excellent, with the various walks to Widemouth and along the canal. The fact that you welcome dogs is brilliant and we will be recommending you to friends. By the sounds of it, we have had some of the best weather,with some gorgeous days. But I don't think bad weather would have spoiled it. Location is excellent - we have made it to Padstow, St Ives, Looe and Bodmin. The tea rooms are excellent, and the cake you left for us was delicious! We will definitely be back!
A fabulous week in one of the best cottages we've stayed in. Blessed with some great weather,so didn't use the on-site facilities too much but did manage a daily table tennis mega-tournament. Made to feel very welcome with a truly scrumptious lemon cake on arrival, the facilities of the cottage were more than we'd expected and it soon felt like home. Only ate out 1 night (too much BBQ-ing) at the Bay View Inn - was busy and lucky to get a table so we'd book in the future. Food and atmosphere very good Hope to be back soon!
After our visit last September we knew we would be back. This time we have the in-laws as well as the dog. It has been fantastic.weather sunny everyday. Margo (the dog) thinks that everywhere is her garden and is running about all the time. Fantastic places to visit are: Padstow (less crowded in April) Boscastle (beautiful) Port Isaac, Clovelly (worth the long sleepwalk down). The bay is fantastic. For £2 you can get a land rover back to the top. Summer leave beautiful for dog walking especially early morning or evening. Life's a beach is a lovely restaurant (mainly fish)
We've has a lovely week at Whalesborough Luxury Cottages. The cottage had everything we wanted and the pool and games barn were both enjoyed by us and our son (15 months). The walk from here to the beach is lovely as is the walk along the canal to Bude. The gloomy weather didn't dampen our spirits as the pool and Jacuzzi are just as much fun in the rain. Excellent food at the Weir again and delicious lemon cake on arrival.
Gorgeous cottage - nice to have some luxury, away from home. We loved the walk to Widemouth on our first evening. Was able to take Maddie the dog into the Bay View Inn, which was great! Good job we had a torch for the walk home. Loved the brown dog blankets for the sofas - saved an ongoing battle to try to stop Maddie from climbing up. We'll certainly recommend you to other family and friends with dogs!

"An exemplary hotel"
"Customer care is outstanding and there is a wonderful concierge sevice. The location is central, but quiet and the hotel is classic, stylish and very comfortable."
9 out of 10 | Judith stayed July 15, 2010
"Quiet comfort downtown."
"I had a comfortable, spacious and luxurious room in the Prince George. The location is central but quiet and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent and the food and service in Gio's was superb."
9 out of 10 | Verified Guest stayed June 09, 2010
"I stay at the Prince George whenever I'm in Halifax"
"Nice size, i.e., not too big a hotel, great location, attentive service. Direct connection to the convention centre which is very handy given Halifax weather."

8 out of 10 | George stayed April 27, 2005
"with the construction outside it was difficult for your staff in regard to access to front door. When I arrived there was no ice bucket in my room ,however this small item was looked after very quickly by staff, accompanied by a personal note which was a nice touch thankx George"
4 out of 10 | Chris stayed December 05, 2004
"I had to wait for my room for over 2 hours. We were told twice that it would only be a few more minutes. I was very dissapointed. When we finally got in the room, they sent us a bottle of wine and two pieces of cake to apologize for the wait. The cake was delivered with out forks. No problem, for the staff member said she would return with two forks. Needless to say she did not return with the forks and this added to the poor service. Also of note was the fact that I could not contact the front desk from my room. The phone was not working."
10 out of 10 | Steven stayed August 22, 2004
"It looked like it was going to rain. The concierge would not let me go out without an umbrella, so he got me one to use. He certainly went the extra mile by showing he cared."

Bout to bring the coast back, 'bout to bring the coast back
from BET (Ft. DJ Quik, E-40, Kendrick Lamar, Kurupt, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit & YG) – The West Coast Cypher Lyrics on Genius
He's about to bring the Coast back (West Coast to be exact) because every singer/artist here is from the West Coast.
The west coast has struggled recently in terms of record sales. Yes, yes, we know Dre was top earner in 2011, and yes, Kendrick has been very hot recently, but name another MC from the west that's been on top of the charts. YG is saying he's that dude.
To help improve the quality of the lyrics, visit "The West Coast Cypher" by BET (Ft. DJ Quik, E-40, Kendrick Lamar, Kurupt, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit & YG) Lyrics and leave a suggestion at the bottom of the page

We had Jake's wings and a pizza. Both very good. Stopped in between lunch and dinner, and shifts were changing, which is always uncomfortable
We had Jake's wings and a pizza. Both very good. Stopped in between lunch and dinner, and shifts were changing, which is always uncomfortable
Went for a business lunch. Even though we were after the lunch rush time, the staff was quick, friendly and helpful. Good value. Great location
The prime rib sandwich and fries were fantastic! Service was great. If I'm ever back in MN I will come by!
Great atmosphere! Great outdoor area! Great staff...very attentive and a joy to be around. Food was excellent and I left feeling like I received my money's worth. Really good restaurant bar.
My daughter took me to this Sunday morning for its brunch ... we arrived just shortly after 10 a.m. and were lucky to have beat the rush. The food was colorful and presented well; the mimosas were a nice touch. The sticky rolls tasted like grandma's, the eggs fresh, the bacon and sausage were quite nice. The tuna and shrimp... More
We brought a larger size group here on a Sunday night and the place was pretty quiet. The staff were friendly and attentive (not that they had a lot of other tables to pay attention to). My dad said his enchilada was really amazing. My husband and I had wood fire pizzas, they were average. All the portion servings were... More
Went last night for HH, stay away from the nachos which came with neon orange "cheese" sauce and a small container of guacamole which had the pit in it so there was all of about 2 scoops of actual guac in there. The mushrooms and artichoke dip are good. Staff is attentive.
We visited Jakes often but not lately. We had four different people serve us. I ordered the Tilapia Tacos....they would have been good had they not been placed upon wet pico de gallo....soggy tacos aren't good. To their credit the staff did I offer to replace but considering it took them over 10 minutes to check back with us it... More
We met for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The food and service were great. Nice atmosphere as well. We were on a tight timetable and we had no problems meeting it. Will definitely eat there again. Loved the lobster tacos.
I had been to Jake's a few time for happy hour, and knew the appetizers were great. Took my family to dinner recently, and found the food and service was great too. The menu had an amazing variety, so great choices for the whole family. We were too full for dessert, but came back another time after a concert for... More
