posted as a comment on a blog about one of my cats, I still laugh when I read it (written by Field Marshall Montgomery, her sister's cat, and who lived through the aftermath of this episode):
white lady
pale and nice
sleeps gently with peace
here, I will projectile brown vomit
on her hair,face, pillow,wall
She is still sleeping
I will not tell her
--Field Marshall Monty Montgomery
I suspect I have bathroom issues. Not me personally but issues with how other people use bathrooms. I blame my mother for giving me this complex.
Her bladder is the size of the Goodyear blimp. Mine is the size of a pea. She would pick me up from college, load me up with Coke & refuse to stop until we got home 2 hours later. She didn't have to go to the bathroom so I shouldn't have to go either. She claims to be able to drive the 11 hours between my house and hers without having to stop and go a single time - she's proud that the car needs gas before she needs to use a bathroom.
I had a boss once, back in the late 90s, who would talk on his cell phone while he was using the bathroom. Not just while IN the bathroom, but while USING it. The phone had a good microphone.
At least we knew he washed his hands.
Then there are the "pees & flees". The ones who use the bathroom and don't wash their hands. Or, knowing they are being watched, run their fingertips under water for 2 seconds, shake off the water and bolt for the door. We have at least one of those (female) I have personally identified at work, probably more.
Once I walked into the bathroom at a previous employer during my lunch hour. Standing at the sink was a coworker...naked from the waist up. She said she went walking and was sweaty so was using the paper towels to wash off. Maybe it's just me but being half naked in a communal bathroom in the place you work is just not something you do. And certainly not something you ever expect to walk in on.
Once I was so desperate I stopped and used a gas station bathroom at one of the last exits before getting to the Atlanta airport. Think of every stereotyped cliche of gas station bathrooms and this was it times 10, but I was beyond desperate. I set a women's world record for how fast I finished and how few breaths I had to take...until the door wouldn't open. For 10 minutes I was stuck in this incredibly nasty bathroom pounding on the steel door (while conversely trying not to actually touch it) screaming for help before I was able to pry it open. Then the guy inside the gas station says "Hey, were you yelling or something?"
Someone in my home has lately been depositing used toilet paper in the garbage can instead of putting it in the toilet. This same individual also apparently no longer understands about flushing the toilet and sees nothing wrong with wanting to unload the dishwasher immediately after pulling a "pee & flee". I end up washing dishes A LOT.
One lady I work with talks on her cell phone while using the bathroom. I guess because she's speaking in another language it doesn't matter about the background noise.
And let's not forget about the "sprinklers". The ones who drip on the toilet seat or floor and leave it there. And not just urine either. We have at least one of those at work currently, possibly more. Fortunately there are 7 or 8 stalls but this woman does not seem to like using the same stall twice (wonder why??) so by the end of the day finding a stall to use is sometimes challenging. Our "cleaning" service doesn't seem to do a whole lot of actual cleaning in the bathroom either.
I refuse to fly Air France any more. I always seem to get a seat right next to a bathroom. Their food does not sit well with some American stomachs and they won't let me use the oxygen mask so I can breathe untainted air.
My dog, like all dogs, enjoys drinking from the toilet. He also thinks the cat litter box is a candy buffet or something. He is a dog, he is stupid, I should not be surprised (cats rule, dogs drool!).
This public service announcement was paid for by the Committee of Concerned Size 12 Clothing.
Our bitter enemies, the Scale Gremlins, have not given up the fight. Their sole objective is to topple the ever-shrinking Empire of Fangfacekitty. We must be constantly vigilant in order to protect our borders and not regain the ground we have lost!
Our empire's premier interrogator Sergeant Pre-Teen Daughter has learned from captured (and duly executed) Girl Scout Cookies that the evil Scale Gremlins are massing for another full-scale attack from their exile in the land of Freakishly Thin Supermodels, on no other day than the holy Fat Tuesday!
They have obtained new allies, the Pączki tribe from the Polish Bakeries. They plan to strike early, at the start of the work day when our resistance is low.
We therefore call on all Citizens of the Empire to train hard and be prepared to report for battle. General Treadmill, the Hero of the Battle of the Cookies, is still on the job and planning our defense. Our front line troops, Wii and Zumba, have survived ambush by the Subway Cookie mercenaries and prevailed without suffering any losses. Forewarned is forearmed - we will survive this new challenge and defeat the evil Scale Gremlins and their allies!

A Place Between Us - find a place to meet someone halfway between your locations
1. Of course I look familiar. I was here just last week cleaning your carpets, painting your shutters, or delivering your new refrigerator.
2. Hey, thanks for letting me use the bathroom when I was working in your yard last week. While I was in there, I unlatched the back window to make my return a little easier.
3. Love those flowers. That tells me you have taste... and taste means there are nice things inside. Those yard toys your kids leave out always make me wonder what type of gaming system they have.
4. Yes, I really do look for newspapers piled up on the driveway. And I might leave a pizza flyer in your front door to see how long it takes you to remove it..
5. If it snows while you're out of town, get a neighbor to create car and foot tracks into the house.. Virgin drifts in the driveway are a dead giveaway.
6. If decorative glass is part of your front entrance, don't let your alarm company install the control pad where I can see if it's set. That makes it too easy.
7. A good security company alarms the window over the sink. And the windows on the second floor, which often access the master bedroom - and your jewelry. It's not a bad idea to put motion detectors up there too.
8. It's raining, you're fumbling with your umbrella, and you forget to lock your door - understandable. But understand this: I don't take a day off because of bad weather.
9. I always knock first. If you answer, I'll ask for directions somewhere or offer to clean your gutters. (Don't take me up on it.)
10. Do you really think I won't look in your sock drawer? I always check dresser drawers, the bedside table, and the medicine cabinet.
11. Here's a helpful hint: I almost never go into kids' rooms.
12. You're right: I won't have enough time to break into that safe where you keep your valuables. But if it's not bolted down, I'll take it with me.
13. A loud TV or radio can be a better deterrent than the best alarm system. If you're reluctant to leave your TV on while you're out of town, you can buy a $35 device that works on a timer and simulates the flickering glow of a real television. (Find it athttp://www.faketv/.com/)
1. Sometimes, I carry a clipboard. Sometimes, I dress like a lawn guy and carry a rake. I do my best to never, ever look like a crook.
2. The two things I hate most: loud dogs and nosy neighbors.
3. I'll break a window to get in, even if it makes a little noise. If your neighbor hears one loud sound, he'll stop what he's doing and wait to hear it again. If he doesn't hear it again, he'll just go back to what he was doing. It's human nature.
4. I'm not complaining, but why would you pay all that money for a fancy alarm system and leave your house without setting it?
5. I love looking in your windows. I'm looking for signs that you're home, and for flat screen TVs or gaming systems I'd like. I'll drive or walk through your neighborhood at night, before you close the blinds, just to pick my targets.
6. Avoid announcing your vacation on your Facebook page. It's easier than you think to look up your address.
7. To you, leaving that window open just a crack during the day is a way to let in a little fresh air. To me, it's an invitation.
8. If you don't answer when I knock, I try the door. Occasionally, I hit the jackpot and walk right in.

Protection for you and your home:
If you don't have a gun, here's a more humane way to wreck someone's evil plans for you.
A friend who is a receptionist in a church in a high risk area was concerned about someone coming into the office on Monday to rob them when they were counting the collection. She asked the local police department about using pepper spray and they recommended to her that she get a can of wasp spray instead.
The wasp spray, they told her, can shoot up to twenty feet away and is a lot more accurate, while with the pepper spray, they have to get too close to you and could overpower you. The wasp spray temporarily blinds an attacker until they get to the hospital for an antidote. She keeps a can on her desk in the office and it doesn't attract attention from people like a can of pepper spray would. She also keeps one nearby at home for home protection.. Thought this was interesting and might be of use.
On the heels of a break-in and beating that left an elderly woman in Toledo dead, self-defense experts have a tip that could save your life.
Val Glinka teaches self-defense to students at Sylvania Southview High School . For decades, he's suggested putting a can of wasp and hornet spray near your door or bed.
Glinka says, "This is better than anything I can teach them."
Glinka considers it inexpensive, easy to find, and more effective than mace or pepper spray. The cans typically shoot 20 to 30 feet; so if someone tries to break into your home, Glinka says, "spray the culprit in the eyes". It's a tip he's given to students for decades. It's also one he wants everyone to hear. If you're looking for protection, Glinka says look to the spray.
"That's going to give you a chance to call the police; maybe get out." Maybe even save a life.
Put your car keys beside your bed at night.
Tell your spouse, your children, your neighbors, your parents, your Dr.'s office, the check-out girl at the market, everyone you run across. Put your car keys beside your bed at night.
If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies. This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of this: It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or until you reset it with the button on the key fob chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage. If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break into your house, odds are the burglar/rapist won't stick around. After a few seconds all the neighbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal won't want that. And remember to carry your keys while walking to your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the same way there. This is something that should really be shared with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or a sexual abuse crime.
I am sending this to everyone I know because I think it is fantastic. Would also be useful for any emergency, such as a heart attack, where you can't reach a phone. My Mom has suggested to my Dad that he carry his car keys with him in case he falls outside and she doesn't hear him. He can activate the car alarm and then she'll know there's a problem.
Please pass this on even IF you've read it before. It's a reminder.
Please share this with all the people in your life.

Pig roast event supports Carolina Ground Flour Mill's wheat-seed expansion project
Jennifer Lapidus, owner of Carolina Ground Flour Mill, was on a mission to find locally grown, soft white wheat seed to stone-grind at her mill. When she called Paul Murphy, professor of crop science at N.C. State University in Raleigh, she found what she was looking for. Murphy had in fact developed a soft white wheat seed, but he advised Lapidus that there was no market for it. "I told him we are the market," says Lapidus.

Huntsman's CEO Discusses Q1 2012 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
I will now turn the call over to Peter Huntsman, our President and CEO.
Peter R. Huntsman
Thank you very much, Kurt. Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us. Let's turn to Slide #3. Adjusted EBITDA for our Polyurethanes division in the first quarter 2012 was $177 million, an improvement of $63 million compared to the prior year of $114 million. Sales volume for our MDI products increased 4% compared to the prior year. We saw improved demand geographically in each of our regions and across the majority of our end market segments. Despite troubling economic headlines, we saw a growth in Europe with stronger demand in Northern Europe where we sell the majority of our product following the negative impact of the recession plague in Southern Europe. We continue to see growing demand in U.S. automotive and insulation. The Southeast Asia ASEAN markets have countered the slowdown in growth that we are seeing in China. We successfully raised our MDI selling prices in the quarter, which increased our contribution margin though these increases were partially offset by an increase in the cost of benzene. We expect further positive traction on our MDI average selling prices in the second quarter.
Propylene oxide and its co-product, MTBE, continue to perform very well, primarily as a result of an attractive spread between premium gasoline and lower price natural gas-based raw material. In the first quarter, we saw exceptional margins in part due to industry supply outages. Coupled with strong demand, these outages led to an increase of approximately $55 million to $60 million compared to the prior year and prior quarter. By the first 2 weeks of the second quarter, most of these idle facilities had restarted, so we do not expect this benefit to continue into the second quarter.Turning to Slide #4. In the first quarter, our Performance Products division earned $90 million of adjusted EBITDA, an increase of 50% compared to the prior quarter. We believe that the demand for amines is improving and production from new industry supply is being absorbed into the market. As a result, we saw increased margin and an improvement in volumes compared to the prior quarter. It will take a while, however, for the industry to ramp up to the profitable levels we enjoyed in early 2011. Our margins of a year ago also had some benefits from industry outages that carried some short-term margin expansions. We continue to invest in our Performance Products businesses. We recently announced the increase of our North American ethylene oxide capacity by 250 million pounds to supply our growing downstream ethylene oxide derivative businesses. This specific project represents one of the ways we are leveraging the North American low ethylene cost advantage to supply our downstream derivatives business in amines and surfactants. Our upstream businesses continue to perform well. It's worth noting, however, that we look forward to the -- that as we look forward to the remainder of the year, we will take our ethylene oxide unit down for planned maintenance in the third quarter of this year. This maintenance is performed once every 4 years, and we expect the EBITDA impact to be approximately $15 million. Read the rest of this transcript for free on seekingalpha.com

|ESPN.com: Tennis
|[Print without images]
Hunt will be remembered as a founder of the American Football League and owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, entities that eventually merged with the NFL. In fact, Hunt came up with the name "Super Bowl" (sound familiar?), when the game was conceived as the premerger AFL vs. NFL championship game for pro football bragging rights.
But despite Hunt's Everyman ways and manner and his abiding love for football, he was also an international sports visionary. In 1967 he created the first organized pro tennis tour (World Championship Tennis), and in 1968 he helped bring pro soccer to the United States with his Dallas Tornado of the old North American Soccer League. In both cases, he helped put sports little-known in the American mainstream on the radar for entrepreneurs and fans alike. We'll focus on the tennis part.
If you're a tennis fan wondering why the calendar is such a chaotic, overcrowded mess, here's one intriguing thing to contemplate: Anticipating the explosive growth of tennis in the Open era (professional players were barred from playing in the major tournaments until 1968), Hunt founded WCT, a tour built -- albeit loosely -- on the NFL and Major League Baseball models. He was enamored with tennis pioneers like Rod Laver, Ken Rosewall, ESPN tennis commentator Cliff Drysdale and other old-school players, and he persuaded a group of them (known as the "Handsome Eight") to sign contracts to play under the WCT banner.
Although the format changed slightly over the years, the basic idea of WCT remained the same: create a series of tournaments linked under the WCT brand, put the players under contract to take part (although the tournaments were for prize money), and end each season with the equivalent of a playoffs for the top performers -- an event that came to be known as the WCT Finals. In fact, one of the two seminal tennis matches of the Open era (along with the Billie Jean King vs. Bobby Riggs throw-down) was the 1972 WCT Finals championship match between Rod Laver and Ken Rosewall; the match, seen by 21 million viewers, was a flash point of the tennis boom.
You might have thought that the Lords of Tennis, huddled in their individual fiefdoms of Wimbledon, the French Open and other national enclaves, would have welcomed this sensible approach to bringing order to the frontier. Instead, they saw WCT and Hunt as a major threat. (It was not mere paranoia: this was the family that will also be known for having tried to corner the world silver market.) If WCT became the tennis equivalent of the NFL, it would, over time, challenge the ascendancy of the Grand Slams and the governing body of the game, the International Tennis Federation (the WCT season never overlapped with the major tournaments, but never mind).
Better to have dozens of lesser, independent tournaments answering to our guys (the ITF), the Lords reasoned, each a getting a small piece of the action.
Ultimately, a coalition of anti-Hunt forces (many of them in uneasy alliances that make Middle Eastern politics seem transparent) successfully killed WCT. Then they started to kill each other, with outstanding carnage all around. What's left, though, in what is now the ATP Tour, is a shadow of the WCT model -- but one lacking the discipline, central authority, continuity and streamlined organization that Hunt brought to tennis. If this were a movie, you could call it Once Upon a Time in Wild, Wild Tennis.
I knew Lamar. He always returned my calls, and he listened as patiently and carefully as he spoke. He created great events that featured a classy aura along with professional integrity. Hunt was a remarkably self-effacing man who loved tennis and brought to it a powerful organizational instinct.
Ask yourself if you wish tennis were more -- or less -- like the NFL, presented on an international platform. How you answer will tell you all you need to know about the opportunity the game missed.Send in a question for Peter Bodo's next chat, Wednesday, Jan. 3 at 1 p.m.

(Updates with bond market reaction in seventh paragraph.)
Nov. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Slovenia's next government must cut public spending as the likelihood of the nation sliding into a recession because of the euro region's debt crisis increases, according to the government's forecasting institute.
Slovenes will vote on Dec. 4 after Prime Minister Borut Pahor's government was toppled in a no-confidence vote on Sept. 20. Its failure to cut public spending and the rejection of the pension changes in June prompted credit rating companies to lower the country's assessment.
The export-driven economy is faltering as demand in Europe weakens after governments embarked on spending cuts to allay investors' concern over debt sustainability. Gross domestic product weakened to an annual 0.9 percent in second quarter from a 2.3 percent pace in the first three months.
"The key challenge for the new Cabinet will be to consolidate public finances," Bostjan Vasle, the institute's director told reporters in Ljubljana today. "We can't rule out the possibility economic growth will be negative in some quarters as there are visible signs of an economic slowdown in Europe."
Record Borrowing Costs
Slovenia, a member of the euro region since 2007, had its credit rating cut by all major ratings service since the fall of Pahor's government because of a poor fiscal outlook, a faltering economic recovery and a weak banking industry. Borrowing costs have hit a record-high as financial turmoil roils neighboring Italy.
The outgoing government aims to narrow the budget deficit to 4.6 percent of total output this year. Slovenia's public debt ballooned to 44.2 percent of gross domestic product at the end of June, according to the statistics office.
The yield on Slovenian government bonds maturing in 2021 rose to a euro-era record of 6.249 percent at 1:07 p.m. in Ljubljana. The extra yield investors demand compared with similar maturity German debt rose to 460 basis points from 392 basis points a week ago, Bloomberg data show. A basis point is 0.01 percentage point.
"The crisis on the international financial markets is taking its toll on Slovenia's borrowing costs, but also its own unresolved situation with public finances," Vasle said.
The former Yugoslav nation is rated AA- at Standard & Poor's, the fourth-highest investment grade, and an equivalent at Fitch Ratings. Moody's rates Slovenia at Aa3.

When Bryan Singer first approached United Artists with the idea of making Valkyrie, he wanted to do it for about $25 million. Then Tom Cruise got interested and the budget exploded. The same thing happened to Lions for Lambs -- to Cruise and Robert Redford, it seemed like a modest little movie; at $35 million plus marketing, it was still too expensive for what it was. The idea of UA being an indie was impossible with the players involved. Now Valkyrie, which several people I know have seen and liked, has bad buzz and will be judged as a costly star vehicle, which is quite different from a $25 million movie with no marquee star. Finally, MGM h...Read More »

At a reputed 141 years young, Feroz-un-Din Mir could soon be adding to India's popular array of ancient cultural sites so loved by holidaymakers on group tours.
Five-times-married Mr Mir, from Kashmir, who has outlived his first four wives, claims he has a government certificate proving he was born on March 10, 1872.
If true, this would make him the world's oldest person.
To give you an indication of just how old Mr Mir claims he is, Queen Victoria still had nearly 29 years left of her UK reign when he was born, William Gladstone was in the first of his four terms as British Prime Minister and football's first FA Cup saw Wanderers beat Royal Engineers 1-0 in the final.
Elsewhere, Jesse James' gang robbed a bank in Kentucky and escaped with 1,500 dollars (£982.06) and the Mary Celeste set sail from New York.
Mr Mir is married to a woman in her eighties, Misra, who told Kashmir Life: "He is witness to some of the most significant events in history in the past century."
He can still walk with assistance from his family, can still vaguely see and talks about his extraordinary life in his native Pahari tongue.
Mr Mir, like his father Matulli, became a fruit and nut trader and would regularly accompany him to Pakistan's capital Karachi.
Guinness World Records staff are believed to be investigating Mr Mir's claim.

Well, it's our second Christmas, 18th month and almost 4 millionth hit and what can I say, apart from 'Bugger me sideways, what a year!'.
We have attracted many, many new members (you are all most very welcome) and a large amount of interest from the industry, trade and media. The EduGeek pixies, in the form of the moderators have been the most wonderful supportive and helpful bunch as I could ever wish to have, as my eyes and ears have been essentially 'removed', and particular thanks go to Grumbledook, Russdev and Ric for their massive contribution behind the scenes, from organizing BETT to our regional conferences. If you have any doubt as to the effort they have all put in then come and see us at BETT 2007 (there may be a queue) or one of next years free regional seminars.
And last, but not least, thanks to you all, our members. You are a special bunch, doing a thankless, and at times almost impossible task. Battling pupils, patches, budgets and ignorance on a daily basis. I've been, and still am, a member of several forums, as most of you all are, but I've never seen a forum like this where members put themselves out to help each other. From visiting each others schools to lengthy phone calls to solve quite technical issues, there are almost no lengths you will not go to too help each other out. No where else does that. You guys (and gals) are very, very special people. If your schools don't appreciate you, we most certainly do.
So sit back, have a beer, whiskey or drink of your choice and bask in the warm glow of a job well done and the fact that we at EduGeek cannot thank you all enough. Have a very merry Christmas and holidays and I hope to see you all posting eagerly in the new year*

Prostitution, labeled as the world's oldest profession though considered one at the lowest of the totem pole in the likes of careers, yet it remains as an industry that has proven to stand the test of time despite the financial collapses of the economies throughout the history of the ages.

When was the last time you were tested for a spiritual transmitted disease? What are the symptoms of being infected spiritually? What is the cure if any? How long is the incubation period? Is this spiritual transference deadly? What effects does this transmission have on my mind, soul and body? How did I become infected spiritually?

Uihleins give $500,000 to UWM preservation institute
The preservation and adaptive re-use of existing buildings is as crucial to the field of architecture as are trends in new construction, and the architecture school at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee just received a $500,000 gift from philanthropists David and Julia Uihlein to bolster education in this area.
The donation will support the UWM's Historic Preservation Institute and should expand the institute's ability to address preservation challenges in Milwaukee and to partner with the city's preservation specialists.
By funding research activities, including students and interns who will work directly with the city's historic preservation office, the gift will make the institute a "high-profile contributor" that will bridge the development and preservation communities, said Robert Greenstreet, dean of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's School of Architecture and Urban Planning. »Read Full Blog Post

The BBC Archive collections
What a wonderful opportunity to explore the BBC archives, through these themed collections of radio and TV programmes, documents and photographs. One advantage of this site is that there can be no reason for SLTs in schools to block this site, making some interesting and sometimes unique broadcasts available. For example the 'Chamberlain returns from Munich' clip gives us a full six minutes of Dimbleby observation and explanation, before Prime Minister Chamberlain makes his now infamous statement and waves the piece of paper. Certainly this broadcast is an invaluable resource, I feel that the BBC has provided us with some special resources here.
The Synopsis for each clip provide valuable provenance, making the whole package useful. The only drawback with the site, I would foresee, is that, I for one, will be exploring in detail the interesting material, and would probable quickly fall off-task.
I think that this site can be used by teachers to provide interesting and unusual classroom resources, and can also be given to students for independent research. I would love to be able to download or embed the video and audio clips, but understand why this is blocked. The 'Meet the Experts' section can also be used for examining the increasingly popular aspect of assessing audio and video sources of information, an Historical skill.

Linda & Karen "Bowling Moms"
June 26, 2004, 06:17:01 PM »
Linda & Karen are self-proclaimed bowling moms from Palmdale, California. They met 12 years ago when they joined the local bowling team and have been doubles partners ever since. A major accomplishment for them was winning the California State Bowling Doubles Tournament in 1999. In addition to bowling, they go on family vacations together to Bass Lake in California.
Karen has been happily married for 21 years and has three children. Linda is celebrating her silver anniversary with her husband this year. She is also a mother of three children and teaches tennis.
Linda & Karen describe themselves as "athletic moms who like to compete at everything." They are excited to compete in THE AMAZING RACE 5 so they can see new places and meet new people

TAR's Bowling Moms Strike Out
by Ethan Alter
When The Amazing Race started back in July, who would've guessed that a pair of fortysomething bowling moms from California would make it past the third leg, let alone end up finishing in fourth place? With their boundless energy and enthusiasm, Linda and Karen proved that age ain't nothin' but a number. Here, these peppy ladies tell TV Guide Online all about their excellent adventure.
TV Guide Online: How's it feel to be TAR's first all-female team to reach the top four?
Karen: I was surprised at how far we made it. Linda wasn't she knew that we could do it all along.
Linda: At every pit stop, we would look at each other and go, "Oh my gosh, we made another round!" And it just kept going.
TVGO: When did you feel your fortunes change on the last leg?
Karen: When we left the pit stop, we were in second place, but we had to run around the corner and up the street to get a taxi. Meanwhile, Brandon and Nicole walked out and got a taxi right away it put them on the first charter flight, and that was the key. I really think if we could have gotten on that first charter flight, we would have been running for the $1 million. If I went head-to-head against Chip in the wall climb, I think I might have beat him. I really do. But that challenge was a lot more difficult than it looked.
Linda: Even Colin was totally wiped. When he came down he was like, "My arms are like spaghetti." And this is Colin, who is buff and in shape! I knew that if she could get to the top before Colin got there, we'd be okay. But Colin got up there like a monkey.
TVGO: Did those intensely physical challenges on the last two legs give the youngsters the advantage?
Karen: I don't even think it's a matter of the younger contestants. I think if you had a male on your team, you definitely had a little bit of an advantage. The guys did nine out of the 10 roadblocks.
Linda: After all of the women did the caviar roadblock, the men said, "My gosh, we almost lost this race because we let the girl do one damn roadblock." And then they never did another one.
Karen: Whereas we didn't have a choice. I really don't think it was the age, because Linda and I did it! We're two over-40 women and we did every single task. There wasn't anything that we couldn't do. So I don't think it's the age, I think a lot of it is having a man [on your team].
TVGO: Settle this once and for all: Did you lie to Jim and Marsha about having to change money in Buenos Aires?
Linda: Definitely not. When we were on that ferry, everyone was trying to find directions to Evita Peron's grave, and my question to one of the locals was, "Will they take U.S. dollars?" Because Linda and I had never really traveled. It was one of the early legs and I just wasn't sure. So that was my question. And we already had Argentine pesos, so we were passing this information along to some of the other racers and they overheard us. We liked Jim and Marsha we never would have lied to them. When we saw that on the show, Linda said, "Karen, did you lie to Jim and Marsha?" And I said, "No! Linda, did you lie to them?"
TVGO: You were the first team to have your cash taken away as a penalty for coming in last on a non-elimination leg. Was that hard?
Karen: For me, it was really difficult. Linda had a hard time holding me up, because I was really down and ready to go home.
Linda: I told her that I could make money anywhere. I knew it! I said, "You don't even have to do anything. I'll get us the money." Because I knew she was very upset about that. Once we thought of the tourists, we had it made.
Karen: [Here's] something that wasn't on the show: Before we got to the pit stop, we found two tour buses parked out front and one of them was filled with Americans. That's where we got most of our money.
Linda: I think it was a good addition to the show, I really do. I think it adds a little more drama. It's pretty easy to do and they made it where you were eliminated in countries where there were tourists. You weren't in the middle of Tanzania, where you'd have to beg from people that don't have any money.
TVGO: Why didn't you use the Yield on anyone?
Linda: We've got a story about that. At every pit stop, you have to turn in everything in your bag, all your trash and that sort of thing. So at either the first or second pit stop, we turned in our trash, and our Yield marker was in it by accident. So we didn't have a Yield for the rest of the race! Nobody knew this! When I realized it, I called the production staff and they said they'd replace it, but in the rules, it says you can't get a replacement. If they told me that, I would have gone and looked through the trash, because we definitely would have used it.
TVGO: Unlike some teams, you didn't make any enemies during the race.
Karen: One of the things we tried to do is help another team out in the hopes that, if you're in trouble, they will come and help you out. And you know what? Even Colin helped us out a couple times.
Linda: He did. They didn't show a lot of it on camera, but he really did.
Karen: When we blew the oil pump and the twins drove right by us, Colin stopped. And there was another incident where we took a water taxi. We didn't have the proper currency, and Colin and Christie paid for our fee. So there were times where they were nice. And they didn't really come after us.
TVGO: Anything you'd do differently if you ran the race over again?
Karen: Lose some weight and get in better shape, so I could get up that wall! [Laughs]
Linda: You did get up the wall! What are you talking about? I think we did a good job. I think maybe [I'd do] better preparation for [buying] airline tickets. That was our biggest weakness, [not knowing] how to handle ourselves in the airport. Colin would get these fantastic flights and I still don't know how he did it.

Thanks puddin! Very interesting stuff - especially that about losing the ability to use the yield so early in the game.

Thanks for the article. IT is interesting to know about the yeild. And to hear a positive side to Colin we did not see. They still are supporting each other, that is great.

Good article. Glad to hear that when teams lost their money, it was always in a touristy town. Because all the teams did not have a problem getting money.

Illegal immigrant steps closer to Fla. law license
A Florida man seeking to practice law even though he was brought illegally to the U.S. from Mexico by his parents as a young boy is a step closer to becoming an attorney.
Jose Godinez-Samperio confirmed Tuesday the Florida Board of Bar Examiners recommended his admission to the state Supreme Court, which makes the final decision.
The court ruled earlier this year that immigrants in the country illegally cannot get a license to practice law in Florida. That prompted the Legislature to pass a measure allowing issuance of a law license if the immigrant came to the country as a minor and has been in Florida for more than 10 years.
Godinez-Samperio was 9 when he came to the U.S. with his parents, and the family overstayed a tourist visa.

Just noticed a couple weeks ago that there was a fairly high-pitched noise coming from the right front side of the car which increases. Now the noise is also on the left front side. It only happens in the mornings (after warming it up for about 5 minutes) but never makes the noise in the afternoon when I'm driving home from work. Also, the noise increases anywhere between 30-35 mph, but once I get up to 40 mph, the noise stops. I'm at a loss as to what it could be.

It hard to guess at the source of the problem with out being able to drive the car first hand and get an impression of what is actually going on. Check the obvious for sure, the brake pads. Secondly I would check the wheel bearings. I have had wheel bearings make noise a little intermittently before they started making noise all the time.

Only way to avoid that smell is literally pulling up the carpet, separate padding and carpet, let it dry for 10 hours, use hydrogen peroxide, and powerful carpet cleaner after it was all dry to kill and prevent mold.
It's a lot of work but the smell is avoidable. Go ahead ask me how I know? lol

A Lincoln man recovers after police say he is attacked in a fit of road rage.
Police say Adrian Phillips assaulted a 24-year-old Lincoln man after a car crash.
Officers arrived on the scene about three a.m Tuesday near 18th and Superior street.
They say Phillips' girlfriend was driving her car slowly, looking for a place to pull over, because of a flat tire.
It collided with the victim's car.
They say that's when Phillips got out of the car and beat the victim.
When officers arrived on scene, they found the victim lying in the grass with obviously hurt.
"The victim suffered injuries requiring surgery including a left jaw fracture, an orbital fracture and a broken left ankle. Adrian did sustain minor injuries in the fight to his right hand," Office Katie Flood said.
Phillips was booked in jail for first degree assault and providing false information.
Police say he told officers someone else beat the victim.
His girlfriend, the driver of the car, was cited for no valid license, no registration and open container.

Philadelphia's upscale Latham Hotel has closed for a six-month renovation, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
The 138-room hotel - "once considered the Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton of its time" - closed earlier this month, the paper says. The makeover should last about six months; details weren't available as hotel officials didn't comment for the article.
The hotel is located near prestigious Rittenhouse Square, not far from new rivals such as Kimpton's stylish, 230-room Hotel Palomar, which opened in 2009.
Before the Four Seasons opened in 1983, the Latham was considered Philly's finest small hotel, and its bar was considered "the" place to be seen, the story says. But in the mid-1980s, the hotel's restaurant and lounge closed and re-opened more than once, and more recently they've remained closed.
Often when a hotel closes for a major renovation, it will work with would-be rival hotels to do things like house frequent guests. Nick Gregory, operations director at the Palomar, said he reached out to the Latham to see if his hotel could help.
Readers: Have you stayed at the Latham, either in the past or more recently? If so, what did you think? If not, what's your favorite Philly hotel?
