How the Deep Web, Big Data, Semantic Relationships and Personalized Content Change Travel Marketing
Not long ago, selling travel was viewed as a somewhat generic, three-step process: shop, check (availability and pricing) and book. Today, powerful technologies are converging which enable marketers to leverage personalized content that is tailored to the unique needs of the individual traveler at all stages of the travel life cycle. This Spotlight examines the ways in which travel marketers can tap these technologies to drive brand loyalty and enhance customer lifetime value (CLV).

India Online Travel Overview Sixth Edition: Rail and Hotel Steal the Spotlight
While India breezed through the global financial crisis of 2009, the country's economy – along with its travel market – buckled to global economic pressures in 2012. The rupee dropped in value, hotels took a hit, and airlines – the market's biggest segment – face ongoing industry woes. Despite weak market dynamics, however, India's travel market remains resilient and will not take long to regain full steam. Total travel gross bookings in 2012 experienced healthy growth on a local currency basis, and the explosive increases expected for online hotel and rail bookings in the next three years are nothing short of incredible.

The nine day Central Queensland Outback Drive follows the Tropic of Capricorn west from Rockhampton, the Beef Capital of Australia. It takes you through Emerald and Barcaldine and the Sapphire Gemfields, to Longreach and Springsure in Queensland's Outback. Return to the coast and Rockhampton via Carnarvon Gorge National Park and Gladstone.
Duration | 9 Days | Itinerary Type | Land |
Distance | 1985 Kilometres | Itinerary Route | Circuit |
Mode of Travel | Car | Level of Difficulty |
Rockhampton, the Beef Capital of Australia, is located on the Tropic of Capricorn, marked by the Tropic of Capricorn Spire at the visitor centre on Gladstone Road. Visit Mount Archer, and the restored Archer Park Railway Station.
Travel west from Rockhampton through Duaringa to Dingo. This small town is famous for the World Championship Dingo Trap Contest held each year in July.
11 kilometres west of Dingo is the turn-off to the Blackdown Tableland National Park. Blackdown Tableland protects spectacular sandstone scenery with gorges and waterfalls.
Nearby Blackwater is the heart of coal production in Central Queensland. Blackwater is also Sister City to Fujisawa in Japan. As a tribute, the local community have built a Japanese Garden.
Emerald is the hub of the Central Highlands and the gateway to the Sapphire Gemfields. It offers shopping, restaurants and a range of accommodation. Local sights include Emerald railway station, the Botanic Gardens, Pioneer Village and Museum, the Art Gallery, Town Hall's fossilised tree and the huge reproduction of Van Gogh's Sunflowers.
Visit Lake Maraboon, formed by Fairbairn Dam (30 minutes drive from Emerald). It's three times the size of Sydney Harbour, so there is plenty of space for picnic and watersports.
Best to get an early start for a morning at the gemfields. At Rubyvale and Sapphire, you're in the midst of the largest sapphire fields in the Southern Hemisphere; so make time to have the chance to fossick for your own gems.
Heading west from the Sapphire Gemfields, the Great Dividing Range is traversed at 444 metres above sea level between the townships of Alpha and Jericho. Alpha's striking street murals and art gallery are always popular attractions, whilst Jericho takes pride in its Crystal Trumpeters main street sculpture and Redbank Nature Reserve.
Barcaldine holds a significant place in Australia's history. In the great shearer's strike of 1891 Barcaldine became the rallying point, and that led to the formation of the Australian Labour Party. The Tree of Knowledge is a monument to these times, and the Australian Workers Heritage Centre plays a key role in defining our national character.
Bicentennial Botanical Park and the September Bougainvillea Garden competition compliments Barcaldine's title as the 'Garden City of the West'.
You can choose from camping, caravan or motel accommodation in town for the night.
Today's drive will take you though Ifracombe, a small western Queensland township of less than 350 people, which was once one of Australia's great wool growing districts.
Onto Longreach, home of the Australian Stockman's Hall of Fame and Outback Heritage Centre, Qantas Founders Outback Museum and a wealth of entertainment and warm, country hospitality.
Stay overnight in Longreach. Longreach offers a wide variety of accommodation including caravan parks, motels and hotels.
Today's drive will take you along the Matilda Highway to Blackall, where a town tour reveals the original 'Black Stump' and a memorial to the famous shearer Jack Howe. Join a tour of the Blackall Woolscour where local characters bring the Golden Age of Wool to life.
Further south on the Matilda Highway is the township of Tambo, where you can step back in time on the Tambo Heritage Walk. Watch as sheepskin teddy bears are created - named after local properties Tambo Teddies make a great souvenir!
Turn off the highway and head east to Springsure. The town sits amongst a delightful valley with spectacular mountain range as the backdrop to the famous Virgin Rock, so named for its resemblance to the Virgin Mary. A visit to the Old Rainworth Fort will give you a chilling insight into the courageous and violent Aboriginal resistance to the encroachment of Europeans in 1860s.
Spend the night in Springsure. The township offers caravan park and motel accommodation.
About 71 kilometres south of Springsure is the tiny township of Rolleston which is the best access point to the remarkable Carnarvon National Park. The route from Rolleston to the park is 110 kilometres which includes approximately 20 kilometres of unsealed road.
You need to spend a couple of days exploring the 30 kilometre chasm of Carnarvon Gorge with its white sandstone cliffs giving shelter to tropical plants including cycads and palms. Look out for Aboriginal rock art and see the rock pools and waterfalls of this stunning natural treasure.
Camping is possible in the National Park only at certain times of the year and must be arranged in advance with the park ranger. Campers must be fully self-sufficient and will need to walk 9 kilometres from the car park into the national park.
For alternative accommodation, you can only take cars and caravans as far as Takarakka where there are powered and unpowered sites.
Cabin style accommodation is also available.
The drive to Biloela will take you back to Rolleston, then East along the Dawson Highway. You will pass through Moura, originally a farming service centre that has been transformed into one of Central Queensland's most famous mining towns. Located 4kms East of Moura on the Dawson Highway, you will come across the 150th Meridian Marker which shows the position of the imaginary line (150⁰E) on which Queensland's (Eastern Standard) time is based. Take a stroll through the history of Moura at the Museum, located in Gillespie Street. Then why not head to Gibihi Road where a viewing platform is located to see a dragline in action in a mining pit.
From Moura, it's 45 minutes to Biloela, passing through the township of Banana. No, not the fruit, the town is named after a particularly famous bullock used as a decoy to lure wild cattle into pens.
This is the agricultural heart of Central Queensland. Crops include cotton, sorghum, wheat, herbs and lucerne. There is also a huge cattle industry with the largest number of cattle of any Shire in Queensland.
Accommodation for the night includes several motels; farmstays are also available in the local area.
In the Biloela area, visit Greycliffe Station, a beautifully preserved slab hut dating back to the 1870s which has been converted into a museum, and The Qld Heritage Park, Australia's Primary Industries Exhibition offers educational tours and a chance to visit a variety of farm animals, ranging from donkeys to ostriches.
About 12 kilometres to the south of town is Mount Scoria, a strange basalt formation about 150 metres high with symmetrically shaped rocks which look like a giant staircase. Nearby, the Callide Power Station offers guided tours of the complex. Just east of Biloela is Kroombit Tops National Park, worth a side-trip if you have a 4WD. Most of the road to the park is unsealed.
Originally a penal colony, Gladstone City is now Queensland's largest port. Take a drive up to The William Golding Memorial Lookout atop Auckland Hill for a view over Port Curtis and the Gladstone Marina.
Take a walk through Gladstone's Tondoon Botanic Gardens, located along Glenlyon Road. Covering 55 hectares, the gardens include lakes, cascades, an herbarium and arboretum and an interpretive nature trail.
Before returning to Rockhampton, stop and take a look through the Port Curtis Historic Village, located on the Bruce Highway.

Reviews for Artichoke Chicken Pasta
Sort By :
"Awesome!!! Instead of cooking my tomatoes I chopped them & sprinkled them on top like a garnish & sprinkled shaved Parmesan on top of that. Delicious!!!!!"
"This was an excellent recipe! I used spinach fettuccine instead of regular flour. It was very light. Tasted better the next day. Next time I will be adding more broccoli and tomatoes, and trying the white wine instead of adding the additional broth. I almost want to omit the chicken and substitute it for some crumbled italian sausage. I highly recommend this."
"Excellent! I increased the liquid slightly and increased the broccoli. I used frozen broccoli which was ok but the fresh would have been so much better. I also added a few tbsp of chopped capers. Yum."
"I love it when people list the changes they made. This gives me ideas. I HATE it when people review a recipe just to say they are PLANNING to try it or that they won't try it. Please don't do that."
"I doubled the liquids and used corn starch over flour, but it was really good. Definitly a great weekday recipe."

7Besta toy storage
"We bought two Besta shelf units last spring and wanted to use them to store the kids' toys in the living room.
Unfortunately you cannot have this unit with two drawers, because the drawers are a little less than half the height and a little more than 1/3, so it just does not work and we went for the drawer+door solution with Grip handles for the drawers on top and push latches for the doors at the bottom.
It turns out that those push latches are not so easy to open, especially for kids and also that those Norum doors are so wide that the hinges cannot really hold them up properly, so the whole thing did not look really nice, with the doors at the bottom hanging down in the middle.
So, inspired by this hack we bought 4 Inreda drawers without front and had a carpenter fix the Norum doors to fit the drawers!"
7 Responses to Besta toy storage
What a great blog! I love projects like these..
http://www.kitchendetailsanddesign.com/ -
A lovely idea I would say…because storage for children is an issue and this is a wonderful way of keeping them.Love the cupboards.
I love this I had the same problem frustrated that I couldn't have drawers at the bottom so just got cupboard doors. I may just have to go get me some drawers and copy this solution. Thanks it's genius!!
What a fabulous adaptation. May I please ask: Did you use the same style Norum doors (different size) for the pull-out drawers at the top? Thankyou. I can't wait to do this myself.
Hallo Olivia, yes, we used the same norum doors for the drawers at the top and for the doors at the bottom. they are a bit more expensive but they look so much nicer in the living room than the other plain white ones!
THANKS for sharing, this idea solved our problem, and we are at this very moment compiling our Bestå storage bench with cupboard doors instad of "drawer fronts". Hopefully I have measured neatly enough… I can't understand why IKEA doesn't see the need for full drawers?!
Do you think it is possible to use the deeper AV drawers (49 cm deep instead of 40cm) in the cabinets? I want to add a kitchen counter top, 50cm deep at the top of this setup. It would add another 9 cm of toys for the kids.

I know it's an honor to be nominated, that is so amazing and still so happy about that. However, I feel that you guys were done wrong tonight.

They're music is a good listen whereas your music is so refreshing and beautiful. Every song on Sigh No More touches me in some way and your talent just drizzles out of my speakers! I love love love your music and I can't wait to hear the next album. Also…please please please come to Chicago!!!

while physics, more specifically general relativity, does not SPECIFICALLY say time travel is IMPOSSIBLE, it does state that the amount of energy required to "travel" in time would be absolutely outrageous. there is no power source in the world that would come close to supplying enough power to "travel" in time.
Now, will it be possible in the future? who knows.

I just went through the Stargate earlier today myself...
omg... i had totally forgotten about this guy.
he may not be telling the truth, but harm does do to try to keep an open mind?
i remember kicking myself for not taking him on his offer to e-mail a younger version of myself. of course, i wouldn't benefit from it, but another david in a very similar universe would.
i wish him luck... whether it's on his mission to find that old computer or on his way to the mental hospital.
I'd say: hoax. Good one though.
."We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
(Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere's Fan)
Sure ... we all travel through time ... but all simultaneously at the same forward speed.
Why not?
If time travel is technically possible then it is irrelevant whether we have an adequate power source at this moment in time, what matters is if we ever have a relevant power source at ANY point in time, and if we do, you're pretty much guaranteed that some numbskull somewhere will get time travel to work, with no thought of the consequences - so if that does happen, then you could say a time machine could pop up at ANY moment in time, regardless of whether it was technologically possible at that time or not.
The worrying/exciting thing is - if it IS real, and if he HAS come back to THIS specific time - then why now? what happens now, or soon, that has drawn his attention to this point in time?
If it were true, then I'd say either something massive is about to happen OR he just randomly went libuhaetbiuhaeligushmotgwhmocbiwurhblr on the time-machine-keyboard and ended up here. Although that'd be dumb, 'cos he could have time-travelled accidentally to the exact point in time when the earth is eaten by a supernova of the sun.
My imagination is on overdrive. I've had too much sugar today.
The weather is here, wish you were nice
I do believe it's a hoax.
if in 2031 they still write manuals on typewriters, i'd laugh
Check out my very own Body Hair Lovers and Photography Groups!
The Vulcan Science Directorate has concluded that time travel is impossible.
I do believe in time travel, but no physically, but mentally.
I had so many dreams that came true, so, I think we can go to the future for sure.
Did anyone see the seats in the car? It looks like a 1980's Buick. I know they won't last that long.
If there was time travel, we'd hear about someone winning every lottery and sporting events.

Give a man religion, and he'll starve praying for a fish.

Long Sleeve Silk Wrap Bodysuit
Style # 186490
Elegant wrapped style and sexy slit on cinched long sleeves make this bebe bodysuit an ultra-sexy office-to-cocktails must-have. Whether you style it with a pencil skirt or denim, it's sure to bold up your wardrobe. Cinched detail at wrists offers a comfortable stretch.
- 92% silk, 8% spandex
- Dry clean
- Imported
- Center back to hem: 29" (74 cm)
- Model is 5'9" and is wearing a US size S
Long Sleeve Silk Wrap Bodysuit
Too sheer
I would have loved this top if it weren't so completely thin and sheer at the bust! The bra is visible, so there's no way you can wear this at the office without covering yourself up, or wearing something else underneath (which would look awful)
The product description (and the reviews) should have said so.
December 15, 2012
This top is beautiful. Great for dressing up and down. The front and arms are silk and the bottom snap part along with the back are made of a stretchy material. Its slightly on the bigger side, compared to other body suits so I had to go a size down. I'm so excited to wear it to work and out for the weekend!
December 1, 2012
Sexy sophistication
I'm in love with this top, a bodysuit technically. I can dress it up or dress it down. This top looks very elegant!
Mine is color Egret and runs true to size. The silk fabric part is not completely opaque, but it has a discrete sheerness that is very sexy along with the slits in each sleeve. I'm glad the slit is stitched where it is because it allows better to stay in place. You could go a size smaller if you don't have bigger chest, the top is stretchy but it has a limit and may not be comfortable.

Well. Not sure whether fluke is really the right word at this point. Gigantes have had a pretty bad skid the past week or so. Giants pitchers have struggled with command and hitters have struggled to get on base, but the bottom line is that the Giants aren't driving runners home.
Prince Fielder trade rumors are flying and the Giants are a good candidate, if the Brewers do give him up. One of the best pitching rotations in the Majors looking for just that bat and a team with some nasty hitters, looking for just that pitcher- what better trade?
I actually am totally in sync with the people saying a trade with Milwaukee is in order, except for one little thing: I say we need Ryan Braun, not Prince Fielder.
By the stats: Fielder is 97th, batting .271 on the MLB batting list, with 7 homers and 19 RBIs. He has 166 plate appearances this year. Braun is 14th on the list, batting .324, with 7 homers and 30 RBIs. He has 170 plate appearances.
And! While first base has hot-hitting Aubrey Huff, left field is empty due to Mark DeRosa's wrist issue, which will have him out for a little while more, at the least, and may plague him throughout the year. Schierholtz has battled an injury leaving the Giants with an empty left field if they replace him with Torres, or a slumping Bowker.
Additionally, Fielder is a home-run hitter and there's frankly no guarantee that he could hit home-runs at AT&T Park. More useful for the Giants would be a strong hitter, who does hit homers, but is also fast and gets plenty of base-hits (aka: Ryan Braun).
Not to mention that fact that since Fielder will likely be one of the only power-hitting first basemen on the trade market, he quite possibly will be in high demand. Braun does appear to have a no-trade clause, but if we made a nice enough offer…? And included some homemade brownies in the deal? What guy would refuse homemade brownies? And what fashion-designing, So Cal guy would refuse a chance to play in San Fran?
Who else is convinced?
If you're out there Bruce Bochy/Brian Sabean/Ryan Braun…

Not shooting in HD is really a weak reason for Doctor Who. The effects are most likely done on the same equipment that do effects for Torchwood and even motion pictures. It is just whether they set the rendering to 720x486 vs 1920x1080.
I don't know how their costs work, but the show is a huge (International) hit and a marquee show for the BBC. Not presenting it in HD is retardis.

Epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine (ECX) is a combination of chemotherapy drugs used to treat metastatic and inoperable cancers of the stomach and the junction between the stomach and esophagus. However, many of these cancers return despite treatment. The purpose of this study is to see if adding the investigational drug rilotumumab to ECX chemotherapy is more effective than ECX alone when given as initial therapy in patients with metastatic or inoperable stomach and gastroesophageal cancers.
Rilotumumab works by blocking signals in the MET molecular pathway that drives cancer growth. It will only be given to patients whose cancer cells contain MET. Patients tumors' also must not contain a protein called HER2; other treatments are available that target HER2.
Patients will be randomly assigned to receive ECX plus rilotumumab or ECX plus a placebo. Both treatments are given intravenously (by vein).
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
For more information and to inquire about eligibility for this study, please contact Dr. David Ilson at 646-888-4183.

Mac School Board supports continuing dissection
Jan 28, 2013 | 12 Comments
News-Register Staff
McMinnville School Board members voted unanimously Monday night to continue cat dissection in the Advanced Placement biology class at Mac High.
The elective class is taken mostly by seniors interested in careers in human or animal medical care. Not more than five cats are used each term, said Tony Vicknair, director of secondary programs for the school district.
But Cat Coalition members objected to the way cats are obtained, as well as to using them for dissection. Both practices are inhumane, they said. Antoinette Marcel of the coalition said using computer simulations and other technology to teach anatomy would teach students more and stop sending the message that it's OK to hurt cats.
Marcel had asked the district to stop the practice last fall. When the curriculum committee turned her down, she appealed to the school board.
Several medical professionals on the board cited their own experiences with dissection, which they said were vital to their training.
For additional details, see the Friday News-Register.

On the other hand, speaking of available carcasses, there are any number of dead animals within this county systematically tortured to death by twisted little perverts. The toothless justice system obviously doesn't care--remember the judge who ordered a defendant to work in an animal shelter as a condition of probation? Why not sentence a child molester to spend time at a day care center?
First properly instruct, then have the students perform the euthanasia procedure before doing their dead-cat disections.
So who would know how best to prepare students for further study into the medical profession -- real doctors or a novice with a cause?
Why are we so quick to ignore ethical values and defer to a degree?
Why are we so willing to act like sheep and desire to live in a patriarchal, paternalistic society?

Talking About Lupus and Diet
Is Lupus Bought On By a Poor Diet?
For many years now increasing evidence has been found to support the idea that many, if not most, of the diseases that we suffer from are triggered by eating the wrong foods and not eating enough of the foods that are good for us. In fact, numerous health care professionals around the world have started to turn their attention from prescribing drugs to prescribing certain types of diets.
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes the immune system to attack the body's own organs and tissues. Some of the most common symptoms of lupus include sensitivity to light, fever, fatigue, rashes, muscle and joint pain and loss of appetite. However, knowledge of lupus is not very widespread and the disease can be difficult to diagnose.
Although around a million and a half people in the USA alone and more than five million people worldwide currently suffer from a type of lupus, at this time there is no actual cure for the disease. A number of different types of treatment methods have been suggested over the years, although most types of treatment have proven to be largely ineffective and most of the types of medication that have been developed carry unpleasant potential side effects.
Diagnosis is further complicated by the fact that there are four main types of lupus, each of which presents itself with different symptoms and affects the body in different ways. Discoid lupus erythematosus affects the skin and is sometimes referred to as cutaneous lupus, while systemic lupus erythematosus lupus causes inflammation in a number of different organs and body systems simultaneously. Drug-induced lupus erythematosus
tends to be triggered by certain drugs such as beta blockers, while neonatal lupus erythematosus is an extremely rare type of lupus that presents itself in newborn babies when the baby's mother has lupus.
Although there are strong indications that certain types of lupus are triggered by external factors, such as drug-induced lupus erythematosus, in many cases it is still difficult to say for certain what causes lupus. The good news is that lupus is not contagious and sufferers do not have to worry about passing it on to those that are close to them.
Although researchers have determined that genetics may play a role in the spread of lupus, people who have a family history of lupus will not necessarily contract the disease themselves. Research has shown that women who are in their childbearing years are the group most likely to contract lupus, and for this reason it is believed that hormones may be a trigger.
Extensive research is currently being conducted on the idea that certain environmental factors such as smoking and stress may trigger lupus. It is also believed that people who eat a lot of high fat and high sugar foods such as fast food, sweets and crisps may be more at risk of contracting lupus than people who eat healthily.
Like with many other types of autoimmune disorders, lupus causes joint pain and swelling. Although a lot more research still needs to be done on the topic, many people believe that eating a healthy diet that is rich in the right types of foods many help to eliminate this swelling and help lupus sufferers to lead full lives.

Hot Rods started with junkyard rejects when steel was needed for the war effort but today many are fiberglass replicas, sparing no expense but with few frills - except for speed. Many have small windshields to keep the wind a part of the tradition. The Hot Rod Era started in the 1940's, exploded during the Muscle Car Era in the 60's and 70's and continues today.

Love this dress. The blue and white color is beautiful. The material is a little on the thin side, so it does show any flaws. I'm 5'4", and the dress does run a bit long. The top fits perfectly. You can wear it just about anywhere, or even as a beach cover-up.

F.A.S.T. Series To Pay Ohio Speedweek Cash Bonus
Wednesday, 17 June 2009
By Bryan Autullo - FAST Public Relations
(Maumee, OH)
As Night #10 of the Kistler Racing Products FAST Championship Series fell to Mother Nature, Byron Reed sits at the top of the point standings going into Ohio Speedweek followed closely by Craig Mintz and Brandon Martin. The F.A.S.T. Series points events will resume after the conclusion of Ohio Speedweek. July 3rd and 4th weekend will mark the half-way point of the 22 scheduled F.A.S.T. Series events. Ohio Speedweek is always one of the most exciting weeks of the year in Ohio 410 sprint racing. This year, with the inception of the F.A.S.T. Series, it will add even more excitement to the fierce competition the week typically brings. It will also pay bonus money to the F.A.S.T. regulars who have participated in every scheduled points event so far this season.
"We had a couple of generous fans approach us about the idea of paying a $500 bonus to the highest finishing F.A.S.T. regular in Ohio Speedweek points," said Bryan Autullo, series co-founder. "We wanted to be able to reward these guys in some way and with the help of a few fans we will be able to do that. If one of these F.A.S.T. regulars should win the Speedweek title that bonus money will increase to $2000!" Autullo went on to say, "That's a pretty nice incentive for one of these guys to race hard all week and represent the talent we see every weekend at Attica and Fremont as they travel around the state."
If one of the F.A.S.T. regulars cannot take the top spot, a $500 Bonus will be paid to the highest finishing F.A.S.T. regular for the week. If a F.A.S.T. driver does win the Speedweek title and the $2000 bonus, the $500 will be awarded to the second highest F.A.S.T. driver in the week's standings. Points will be based on the All Star Speedweek points system which awards 100 points to the winner of each event and is reduced by 1 point per position through the entire field (including B-main and C-main). No show up points are calculated for determining Ohio Speedweek points.
There have been a couple of rules set forth for eligibility to receive the bonus money as agreed upon by the fans sponsoring this award.
1. Driver must have competed in all F.A.S.T. points events through June 12, 2009.
2. Driver must be in the same car (same team/owner/number) as driven during those F.A.S.T. points events.
3. Driver must have Kistler Racing Products F.A.S.T. Series decal on both side panels of the top wing for each event throughout the week. (See a F.A.S.T. Series rep for decals if needed.)
The 14 Drivers/Teams eligible as of June 12th, 2009 are as follows:
04 – Cap Henry; 09 – Craig Mintz; 2+ - Brian Smith; 3j – Kevin Lee; 5r – Byron Reed; 9z – Duane Zablocki; 10 – David Harrison; 11m – Brandon Martin; 12 – Caleb Griffith; 15c – Chris Andrews; 16 – Bryan Sebetto; 48s – Andy Shammo; 312 – Mike Linder; X – Mark Keegan
"This will add an extra element of excitement to Ohio Speedweek for the fans of these drivers who compete in the Kistler Racing Products F.A.S.T. Championship Series," Autullo said. "It will be fun to see how they stack up against the competition at other tracks around the State of Ohio." The 2009 Ohio Speedweek kicks off on June 19th at Attica Raceway Park, then moves to Eldora Speedway on Saturday June 20th, Millstream Speedway on Sunday June 21st, Wayne County Speedway on Monday June 22nd, Hilltop Speedway on Tuesday June 23rd, and Waynesfield Motor Sports Park on Wednesday June 24th. Thursday June 25th is scheduled as a make up date if there should be any rainouts during the first part of the week. Speedweek resumes on Friday June 26th at Limaland Motorsports Park and wraps up at Fremont Speedway on Saturday June 27th for the $10,000 to win finale. "The Attica and Fremont events bookend the week of racing," noted Autullo. "We want to wish the 14 eligible drivers the best of luck as they compete for the Ohio Speedweek title."

Shaw Timber Creek Sedona Blue Rug
Item #: 137TC12800-P Add to Wishlist
Features: This product has the following features:
- Collection: Timber Creek
- Brand: Shaw
- Material: 100% Olefin
- Weave: Hand Made
- Styles: Southwestern Rugs
- Origin: USA
- Available in the following sizes: 2' 2" x 3' 3"
This rug suits me very well. I think the design is wonderful. I think the color and the material resemble the item photo.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The colors in the rug are much more muted than the picture. It happens to work nicely in our family room but is not what we expected. The online picture is not accurate and should be replaced.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.We purchased this rug for our condo in Colorado. The colors are wonderful and it compliments our non-southwestern deco very well. It is placed on our tiled foyer floor without a pad and it is fine. Our doors are not close to the rug, but it might rub if you place it right in the doorway.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The rug was more blue than the picture I saw. the picture on the internet looked more like southwest teal or blue-greenish. It is okay for our entryway but I will probably replace it when I find something better.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The rug was excellent and went with my decor perfectly. It warms up our city apartment, making it a softer, more comfortable place to live. Thank you!

RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I absolutely love my rug! The picture on the website doesn't do it justice. The colors shown are accurate but much deeper and richer in person. And the lovely detail of the design (especially the outer border) doesn't show up on the website. It is a nice thick rug too and feels great under bare feet. I was a little worried about making such a large purchase online based on a picture and other people's reviews, but believe me, all the positive reviews were right. I am very happy!!!
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Just received the rug late last week and just put it down yesterday. So far, love the thickness, the design, the size and its just as I picutred it based upon what I saw on the website I ordered from. Looks like it will hold up a long time, but only time will tell. Looks like a great value for the money.

Villa Columbia Bed and Breakfast in Hood River, Oregon, was recently featured on Mike's Road Trip. In the same class as the Columbia River Gorge hotels (really more in the boutique hotel category), Villa Columbia B&B gives you good access to the scenic Columbia Gorge year round and access to Mt. Hood in the winter for skiing.
An excerpt from Mike's blog post:
Breakfast at the Villa Columbia is scrumptious and served in thee-courses. Local ingredients are often used to create a unique experience that reminded me of being in Europe. Each morning of my stay I enjoyed a fresh fruit berry parfait with vanilla yogurt. Some of the other items/dished included:
- Whole wheat blueberry scone
- Ham & cheese breakfast calzone
- Twice baked croissant with cherry compote and chicken sausage
- Spinach quiche with sliced cantaloupe accompanied with sausage in puff pastry
Throughout the day refreshments are available, from stocked mini-fridges with soda and water, to cookies, fruit (like a fresh bowl of cherries while I was there) and a number of candy dishes…all the comforts of home.
[Editor's note: Villa Columbia is a member of the Oregon B&B Guild's Green Lodging Certification program.]Mike also provides an excellent short video with views of the inn, the guestrooms and the area, plus a photo album of the inn. Visit his blog to see it all. And while you're at it, take a look at the rest of Mike's Road Trip--what an interesting fellow and an interesting mission!

Bette Does Her Civic Duty
Here's a picture of Bette Davis speaking at the dedication of the Rodger Young Village, a public housing project in Los Angeles for veterans, on April 27, 1946. Rodger Young won the Medal of Honor posthumously after allowing his platoon to escape unscathed from enemy fire from a machine gun nest by relentlessly advancing on it, drawing all fire to himself. Here's the link to his heroic story on the Army's Medal of Honor website.
Rodger Young is also known to Robert Heinlein fans as the name of one of the ships in Starship Troopers, which Heinlein named after the Medal of Honor recipient.
The project, consisting of Quonset huts, was dismantled around 1955.

I am a stay at home mother of my 7 month old daughter. She is just amazing...when she was a newborn she only fussed when hungry, ate every 4 hours and would sleep 5-10 hours at night, we were so blessed! We moved when she was 4 months old and she was still good. Started baby cereal at 4 1/2 months (BF every 2hours) and then baby food at 5 1/2 months (BF every 3hours)...she just loves food! At the same time though, she begin fussing and waking up at night to breastfeed. I attributed that all to teething, because poor thing has been teething since 3 1/2 months still no teeth! And since 6 months old, she is now constantly hungry and I don't know what I'm doing wrong... Here is her about schedule:
7am nurses back to bed
8:30am wake up and have oatmeal and breakfast with mama.
9:30/10am nurses and plays
~11,naps (20-30min only)
Noon nurses
1:15pm Lunch 3.5oz Gerber 2nd Fruits
2:15/2:30 nurses
Usually takes another 30 min nap
Plays til supper at 5:15 which is 3.5 oz Gerber 2nd Meals (ie Sweet Potato, Turkey and whole grains)
Then she nurses afterwards ~5:30/6pm
6-6:30 nap
Plays, we sing and dance and start to get quiet and ready for bed at 8:15/8:30 she breastfeeds, we read, and she's asleep by 8:45pm
12:30am wakes to nurse
4am nurses
7am wakes to nurse.
OKAY...so my problem is she only sleeps about 12-13.5hours a day..is that even normal or should she get more? She occassionally will nap for that hour or when we're running errands she'll get extra sleep by being in her car seat too.
ALSO, she is fussy...I'm not sure if I'm feeding her enough or should I supplement with formula throughout the day to make longer periods in between? I'm afraid she's just not getting enough breastmilk which is odd because my pediatrician told me I had an oversupply (back at 4month checkup) but she'll nurse for about 5 min and refuses more...once she's done she's done.
She is a healthy growing baby..tripled her birth weight by 6months She now crawls though and like I said has been on solids about two months now so should I give her more during the day?
I'm sorry for just rambling but I am getting concerned and do not yet have a pediatrician that we trust down here yet...Any suggestions would help on both the sleeping part and the feeding part PLEASE!
Also fussy-ness could be we don't allow her to cry as much as she should, like self soothe, because of living with MIL lol but it's become that my LO has seperation anxiety if I put her down and even stand up if noone is there to play or talk to her :/
First time mama needs help! Thank you in advance!
Why did you start giving anything beside nursing? I nursed my last son on demand whenever he wanted it all the way to 11 mths. He slept thru the nites and my bed was always wet from all my milk. I went to all the Le Leche League meetings for nursing mothers and took my son along. It is amazing how much I learned from the other young mothers there!
Hi momma! I am a momma to six and I have a degree in early childhood education with a minor in child development and a specialty in infant and toddler care, so my advice to you is based on my 17 years of experience, education, and training. First, let me address the sleeping - 12 to 14 hours of sleep a day at her age is plenty! Most babies her age would most likely take a morning nap, afternoon nap, and sleep at night to get those hours, but you have to find what works for you, for her, and for the family's schedule. Looking at her feeding schedule though, to me, it looks as if you are overfeeding her from morning to lunch - one hour to 1 1/2 hours in between feedings is not enough of a break between meals and this can have long term effects, setting her up for unhealthy eating habits; she really should be able to go longer between meals, maybe not much - but some. I suggest nursing her when she first wakes up, then around 9ish - feed her breakfast and nurse her right after her solids, just before her solid, or JUST before her morning nap, but don't nurse her to sleep; when she wakes from nap, feed her lunch and again, nurse her just before her nap - if she needs to nurse after nap, I think that is okay, but don't feed her dinner until 5:30/6 and try to discourage the late nap, but I know sometimes it can't be helped. It sounds to me, like she's over the nursing, but the question is, will she take a bottle? Can you pump? (I couldn't) Nothing wrong with formula (I did both) - you can introduce a sippy cup now too. Nurse her again before bed and through the night, but I've found most doctors say that by 9 months they should not be waking to eat at night, so if she still is, I would re-evaluate her night time feeding routine. As for the teeth - no worries...all kids cut teeth differently! My youngest two didn't get even one until they were 16 months old! No joke! I have found that Hyland's teething tablets are a miracle with teething and I also give Motrin when they are super fussy, because that is what my ped recommends. Just remember that ALL children are different - she is your first and if she isn't your only child, you will understand this! LOL! Chin up momma - hope this helps you some!
She is probably getting plenty of breastmilk even if she is only nursing for 5 minutes at a time. I had oversupply with my oldest kid, and it wasn't unusual for her to only nurse for 3-5 minutes and then be all full and done. What you can do to help her stop nursing at night, is to start seperating nursing from bedtime. You can do that by slowly working it forward in the day/ a little bit away from naps by scheduling something else between nursing and going down to sleep. Naps really should be longer IMO. 30 minutes isn't really enough time for a baby to actually fully recharge, but they should get longer if she doesn't need to nurse to fall asleep anymore.
The seperation anxiety is completely normal for a kid her age. It's nothing that you did wrong. It's actually a really good thing that she's showing signs of seperation anxiety right now, because it means that she recognizes you as her caregiver.
A book you can look into that has example schedules of naps/ meals/ etc and sleeping tips is Good Night, Sleep Tight. It has practical advice for birth through elementary school age kids.
She might also be fussy because of some of the solid foods that she's getting. Try cutting out things like oatmeal and other binding foods and see if it makes a difference. Also I would recommend breastfeeding BEFORE solids at her age still. Breastmilk is where most of her nutrition/ calories are coming from and if she's getting too full on solids, she'll not take in enough of what she really needs.
I wanted to nurse as long as possible, but like I said she started getting fussier around 5months and my mother in law suggested supplementing with formula to help her get fuller. I only gave her a bottle before bedtime, but now it's after lunch and before bedtime, but I don't see the point because she'll only take 2 ounces at a time lol BF is still a priority to me, but i'm slowly losing support because of her cranki-ness. Basically testing different methods to help her and I've come to the conclusion it's seperation anxiety because she's perfectly fine in my arms. I never got taught how to nurse besides after having her, and I'm sure there's more to learn as she's growing and we're struggling, I have checked out their page, there's just nothing in my area. Thanks though!
Hey, I appreciate you responding, sounds like you have your hands full!
Yes, the sleeping is the least of my worries besides her cat naps and not getting much done, but she is very alert and doesn't like to miss anything at this age. For feeding, I was afraid there'd be long term effects, but never considered them as much as I should. She used to have long breaks between meals(3-4 hours), it just needs to get back to that, because I believe too she's been getting overfed for her age, although she is a pretty good sized baby. I like to nurse before solids, just wasn't sure if she needed something afterwards to wash it down? Sounds like an easier plan because now it seems I'm always feeding her lol Thank you. I was afraid she is starting to not like nursing, but she rams her head into my chest when she's hungry, it just doesn't seem like she gets a whole lot like I'd like her too. I just don't want to start the weaning yet. I've pumped before but my pump lost suction so I haven't even bothered lately. As for her liking the formula, yes she will take a bottle when we're out and she's hungry. At home she gets excited when she sees me making one, but then just plays with it. For night-time, I know for a fact she can go through the night, especially when I feed her and give her a couple ounces of formula before laying her down to bed. It is just when she wakes up, she's wide awake and it's hard to calm her down, it's easier to nurse her so she's tired again, that's probably my mistake. My peditrician said the same-16 months, I just didn't think that was possible, I feel so bad to have to go that long. Thank you so much for the advice-it helps, I know I'm still learning this stuff, trying to just be patient and see what works to have a better idea on the next one
Thanks for responding. Yes my peditrician said that was normal for an oversupply to only nurse that long. I really don't like nursing her to sleep during the day and try not to do it, lately she fights me to take a nap though. 30 minutes isn't long, I know but I can't make her sleep longer lol
I thought the same thing about that too, and we recently had relatives here and she was really good around them, and loved the kids of course, so anxiety wasn't too bad. Thanks for telling me about that book, I'll look into it
Even at this age, breastmilk is their main source of nutrician right? I was told to Breastfeed before solids and do, but then I wait before giving her solids right away. She's an excellent eater, I just wasn't sure if they needed an actual liquid at this age with the solids? Being a new mom is just making me try different things to see what works and doesn't, so I will havve to try this, thank you!

Jody Correro, cooperative observer for the National Weather Service, formerly the United States Weather Bureau, said the mean temperature – the average of the highs and lows for the 31 days – averaged 35.5 degrees F, about 14 degrees F below the normal (average of temps over a 30-year period).
"And the 1.39 inches of liquid precipitation measured, is more than 4 inches below average," he said.
Precipitation occurred on just nine days, with .39 inches the most on the tenth of the month.
Except for a few snow flurries on Jan. 28, the last 17 days of the month showed no precipitation.
Twenty-six days the minimum temp was 32 degrees or less, with readings of 9 and 10 registered on Jan 29-30, respectively.
Eleven days managed to reach on 40 degrees, including a maximum of 22 on Jan. 7 and 23 on Jan. 29.
A ready of 67 degrees on the 21st, was the warmest day of the year.
"Because the NWS now considers December, January and February as the winter season, temperatures have averaged 38.5 degrees, or 14.5 degrees below average," Correro said.
