The BMC GF01 was been designed by BMC with rider feedback from the pro cyclists who really know what they want and need from a bike.
Here, 2010 World Road Champion and 3 x podium Paris-Roubaix rider Thor Hushovd gives us an insight into what it takes to excel in the Classics, and BMC engineers explain why this bike is perfect for big, powerful BMC riders who race on battering cobblestones, as well as a great match for recreational riders.
This is the bike for a rider who wants a stable steed that will help them keep going for longer without fatigue, and it's also an excellent descender which will provide confidence even on the trickiest descent:

What can I do to control fire ants in my raised beds? |
Follow-Up Postings:
You can use a fire ant bait with the active ingredient Spinosad. Several companies manufacture it these days and you should be able to find a container of it in any decent garden center or garden department. Please note: pay attention to the label. You want a BAIT, and it will be labeled as such. It will be granulated. Spinosad is also used in other formulations (liquid, etc.) but that is not what you want. Spinosad is approved for organic use. Just read and follow the directions. The last thing you want in your raised beds are fire ants. |
Since Knowledge is Power having good, reliable information is always a good thing to seek. The Texas A & M Fire Ant Research project provides just that. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Fire Ant Control
Chris...I should add that a trade name for Spinosad is 'Conserve', and you may find that term on a label rather than Spinosad (which is the active ingredient). |

thanks the big box stores stopped carrying conserve products in my area. I have been having to chase them out with soapy water with little results. |
Chris, Spinosad is easily purchased on line. I find myself comparing prices and ordering more and more on line as gasoline prices rise. While you are waiting for delivery it's fresh orange juice for breakfast, then chop orange skins in the food processor and scatter these over the garden and mounds. This method does not kill but seems to encourage the ants to move on a bit to another area, hopefully out of your garden. |

I am having the same problem. The little bastards moved in just a couple weeks after I put in the raised beds. Ugh, it gives me the creeps. I've been using the suggestions in Howard Garrett's book and so far nothing has worked. This is what I've tried: 1. Use a soil drench containing orange oil. This does kill the ants on contact, but it seems to have no residual effect. As in, the ants will mill about inches away from where I poured the orange oil acting not the least bit repelled. The orange oil will harm your plants so I don't want it too close to where things are already planted. It's a good thing to use on mounds, but unless you can manage to get the queen, it just kills some ants and the rest move a few inches away. 2. Spread dry molasses. Again, this is supposed to repel ants and has no effect whatsoever. The ants are very happy to remain in my comfy beds. I've also heard beneficial nemotodes can help, but I haven't been able to find any. I placed an order for a spinosad based bait on Amazon today, as none of the stores in my area carried it. I hope the spinosad works. |

Fire ants here in SC seem to be becoming gradually outcompeted by another ant (forget name) that while it is more of a pest in the sense of entering houses too at least does not bite. There is however another tiny ant I am now seeing here that has a worse bite than a fire ant. Not worse when it bites, you can barely feel that, but it does not heal up and stop itching for many weeks and gets scabby first. BTW: where fire ants formed large recognizable mounds I would push a stick down into the mound and pour in a little full-strength ammonia solution, then push the hole closed. The killing vapors would fill all the tunnels and chambers. Ammonia is a natural compound, though here made in a chemical plant of course. It will be later oxidized to nitrate by soil bacteria and just become a fertilizer. |
This worked for me: 1) I dug out 2 shovel-fulls of dirt centered where the ants had set up camp in my bed. I flung the dirt ~15 feet away. Of course there were still zillions of ants crawling area in the corner of my raised bed. 2) I mixed 1 gallon of water with ~3 tablespoons of molasses and poured it all over the affected area. 3) I filled in the hole I had dug with compost. I checked 24hrs later with a shovel...they seem to have gone bye-bye! It's only been one day. Not sure if they'll eventually try to return. |

Hey we have installed a Fantini rain head in our bathroom, along with a hand spray wand. It is really nice but I would like to increase the water output-- I am guessing there is a plastic flow restrictor in the rain head. I am posting because while I am somewhat familiar with what is necessary to remove the restrictor from a standard shower head, I am wondering if there is anything weird I should look for in the rain head. (We didn't install it ourselves, a plumber did it for us.) Also, is it likely there is a flow restrictor in the wand as well? Thanks for any advice you can offer. |
Follow-Up Postings:
So I took apart the Hansgrohe Clubmaster in my master bathroom. It was easy to remove the white flow restrictor and now the Clubmaster rocks. Inspired, I took the wrench to my Fantini rain head. Once I got it down I looked inside and there is a white plastic piece inside it as well. But this piece is a little more complicated: it has a moving cylinder within a cylinder. Also it is beneath a screwed in piece of metal-- there is a hexagonal opening, I'm guessing I need a special wrench to take it out? I don't want to mess up the rain head. Anyone have any advice? I could post a photo later, I didn't think to take one when I took the head down. |

Lauren Mancia (History) is fascinated by medieval religious devotion, particularly the devotion of Benedictine monks between the tenth and twelfth centuries. For her dissertation, she is researching the enigmatic devotional, intellectual, and liturgical culture of one particular Norman monastery, Fécamp.
She focuses on the writings of John of Fécamp (ca. 990-1078 C.E.), one of the earliest Christian writers to meditate on the suffering, not just the ultimate glory, of the crucified Christ, making him "one of the first to approach Christ with empathy, not just with awe," she says.
She was first attracted to the Middle Ages when she traveled to Europe with her parents as a middle school student. "I walked into my first medieval church. Even as an adolescent, I was overwhelmed by how the church created a divine ambience — the height of the ceiling, the colors of the stained glass windows, the cavernous resonance of the hymns — and I came back intrigued about the society that would go to such dramatic lengths to understand, commune with, and define the divine. Since then, I've returned to the same questions again and again in my work on the European Middle Ages: how did medieval people understand God, and how did their various understandings reflect contemporary events, intellectual developments, and emotional needs? What fascinates me most about the medieval period is the urgency of the religious devotion that permeates the society."
With support from a Fulbright Fellowship, Mancia will spend eight months in Paris and Normandy beginning in January, examining manuscripts from the eleventh-century library of the monastery. She will analyze the monastery's devotional texts (liturgies, saints' lives, prayers, theological treatises) for evidence of empathetic devotion and examine marginal notations, underlinings, illuminations, and other paratextual markings for evidence of the monks' interpretations of the texts.
She will then compare "the devotion expressed by John's writings with his monastery's devotional culture to piece together the dimensions of this devotion to Christ's humanity in the earliest period in which it was practiced. Such an understanding will tell us about the medieval conception of God, the mechanics of medieval devotion, the character of medieval monasticism, and the emotional needs of medieval Christians. It will also inform our understanding of the early roots of the kind of humanism (the glorification of the human Christ) popularly associated with the Renaissance."
In addition to her research abroad, Lauren has studied resources in the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, which "houses one of the foremost collections of medieval manuscripts in the world and has allowed me to gain a first-hand knowledge of medieval manuscripts and paleography and codicology. Additionally, the Beinecke has among its holdings a few items directly relevant to my dissertation work."
In addition to her Fulbright Fellowship, Lauren is the recipient of an Etienne Gilson Dissertation Grant from the Medieval Academy of America, a John B. and Theta H. Wolf Travel Fellowship from the Society for French Historical Studies, and a fellowship from the Elizabeth Ann Bogert Fund for the Study and Practice of Christian Mysticism. Last year, she received funding from the National Organization for Italian American Women and the Yale MacMillan Center.
Lauren's adviser is Paul Freedman. Anders Winroth (History), Denys Turner (Religious Studies and Yale Divinity School), and Fiona Griffiths (History, New York University) also sit on her committee. Lauren earned her undergraduate degree from Columbia in 2005, where she majored in English and medieval studies. She received a master's degree in medieval studies from the Centre for Medieval Studies at the University of Toronto in 2006. When not at Yale, Lauren is a lecturer at the Cloisters, the branch of the Metropolitan Museum of Art dedicated to the study of medieval art.

A national group is recognizing Lido Beach as one of the country's best-restored beaches.
The American Shore and Beach Preservation Association just announced Lido's inclusion on the list.
"We are honored our preservation and enhancement efforts at Lido Beach have been recognized as some of the best in the nation," said Mayor Dick Clapp.
A two-month beach renourishment project that concluded last month pumped more than 600,000 tons of sand from Big Pass onto Lido Key, creating a beach that is up to 200 yards wider than it had been.
The $4.6 million project was funded by federal and state grants and county tourist tax dollars.

Many local artists continue to make landscape paintings in the representational styles, such as realism and impressionism, that were first developed in the nineteenth century. But others have translated the landscape into contemporary art by employing some kind of abstraction -- either reducing and simplifying the view, or exaggerating it.
More than any of the other top-tier contemporary galleries in Denver, the William Havu Gallery is a center for this kind of art, having pushed new approaches to landscape painting since the early 1990s, when it was called the 1/1 Gallery and was situated in LoDo. Over the years, Havu has showcased dozens of artists who've created updated landscapes. The current show, Landmark, which brings together a distinguished trio of well-known painters with established reputations, is Havu's latest offering on the topic.
Despite their common interest in the landscape, each artist -- Tracy Felix, Jeremy Hillhouse and Greg Navratil -- takes a distinctly different path to convey it, and the resulting works are tremendously varied. So it wasn't as easy as it might have seemed to make Landmark work as a cogent, unified show. But gallery director Havu has pulled it off, mostly by giving each artist a discrete space, connected but separate from the others. In this way, as the show unfolds, it becomes something like a conversation on the nature of landscape painting, with three very different points of view.
Felix, who is from Manitou Springs, comes first, with a number of his classic mountain paintings and a handful of smaller, more experimental pieces. His recognizable work has a playful quality, but he has denied the widely held belief that comic strips have been an inspiration for him. Instead he sees Colorado and New Mexico art from the early to mid-twentieth century as his principle source of inspiration. Particularly significant for Felix are the artists associated with the Broadmoor Academy and its successor, the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center. For more than two decades, he has studied and collected such works. Nevertheless, his style is nothing like the regionalism he admires.
Facing us as we enter the gallery is the monumental and majestic "Ouray, Colorado," an oil on board. The work is signature Felix: The representational elements and details of the valley have been meticulously recorded, but the pictorial elements -- the cliffs, the trees, the peak and the clouds -- are abstract. The scene is at once recognizable and unrealistic.
A few of the paintings in this show indicate new directions for Felix, though. In a pair of works, both called "Ambitious Spruce" (one was displayed at the Metro Center for the Visual Arts last spring), he creates closeups of the forest instead of the sweeping vistas he ordinarily prefers. These paintings are dark and moody. Two other newer paintings, "Front Range Peak" and "Peak," take an almost opposite route. In these, he has exaggerated the rectilinear character of the landscape and stripped the scenery of details. The influence of Charles Bunnell, a Colorado Springs modernist who died in the 1970s, is apparent in both. Bunnell, an artist whose posthumous reputation is on the way up, has been of interest to Felix for a long time, and I wouldn't be surprised to see more Felix paintings along these same Bunnellian lines in the future.
Next up are the almost completely abstract paintings by Hillhouse, who was director of the Denver Art Museum's design department until retiring last year. In that job, Hillhouse had been responsible for the design of many of the most significant exhibits at the DAM, most recently the Impressionism show and the Matisse show. Amazingly, before Hillhouse was hired in 1972, the DAM didn't have a design department. Hillhouse had to create one.
Although he has been painting for nearly thirty years, Hillhouse has only rarely exhibited. Gallery director Havu points out that while he has included Hillhouse's paintings in group shows before, he's never presented such a large number of important pieces by him at the same time. "I see this show as his reintroduction into the Denver art world, a second debut," says Havu. "After he's worked so long at the museum, he now has time to focus on his career as a painter."
Hillhouse is interested in evoking the landscape in his paintings without being too literal. He has written that his paintings are about "thinking" about the landscape, as opposed to the landscape itself. Often composed of multi-panel compositions, these works suggest the landscape with extreme economy, sometimes using just a single horizontal line to separate the land from the sky, or a meandering one representing a stream as seen from above. Otherwise, the paintings are abstract-expressionist, with smears, drips and smudges used to carry out broad color fields that have been isolated from one another by the lines. Some have obviously been painted together, as color fields cross from one panel to another. In others, the panels have been painted separately and have no shared features with the sections to which they are connected. This modular approach becomes a visual element, either subtly or emphatically, depending on Hillhouse's whim.

Joshua Weissman is a 17 year old food lover with a passion for health. Joshua always loved food but his love for food led to an eventual weight gain. After years of ridicule and physical harassment he decided to change his life and lost over 100 pounds through healthy eating and exercise. Even after this, he kept his strong affinity for food and now runs the blog Slim Palate, a food blog where he posts his recipes and other recipes that he likes to make, along with fun stories and just general food talk. The idea behind Slim Palate is to spread the beauty and love behind food through sharing recipes while keeping it to a certain healthy extent and through the constant use of mostly whole foods. They almost always turn out healthy while also being at the same standard as a high quality and decadent meal.
Q: How did you get involved in cooking to begin with? Was it something you learned to love early on or did you come to it later?
My entire life I have always had an obsession with food and cooking. Luckily my parents always help nurture my curiosity and interests by letting me do things and helping me with them. My mom mainly taught me the basics growing up and then kind of let me loose to see what I could do. Now that I look back to it I think I have been cooking almost my entire life, there are pictures of me when I was around 2 or 3 with this way too big for me chefs hat, cooking, and I always had a huge smile on my face. Seeing as food is a necessity to life, and a daily bodily function, why not make it an art form that you can enjoy every single day? I think cooking is probably one of the most intimate and closest ways of having a conversation with someone. You speak to them through the food. The smile on their face is always what I seek after that first bite.
Q: Why is eating grass-fed meat and sustainably-caught fish different? How does it affect your cooking?
When it comes to when I'm cooking I want people to enjoy their food to the maximum while maintaining a certain standard of health. When someone loves food like I do, it's not just about the taste, it's about the ingredients, how fresh they are, how high quality they are. With eating grass fed beef and sustainably caught fish you can keep that standard of health and you can be assured that what your eating is not only delicious but it's contributing to your health and the environment. Anyone who has a passion for cooking and food will always seek out the best of the best, and grass fed and sustainably caught is exactly where you start. Although, now that I think about it, it's kind of funny that we have to search for great things like this, because grass fed meat and sustainable caught fish are all the ways that things are naturally meant to be. Anything that isn't, doesn't really fall under the definition of "food". I suppose this is something that I would simply associate with good food, and food should always be good. As Auguste Escoffier once said, "good food is the foundation of genuine happiness."
Q: Is it just about health? Or is there more to it than that?
It has a lot to do with health, but it also has to do with morals and common sense. In my eyes, it would be hypocritical for someone to have a passion for food and cooking, and not be considerate and respectful to the ingredients they use. After all the ingredients are what make the dish, so it should be a constant thought in the mind of a food lover/chef.
Q: How did you learn about grass-fed meat?
I always knew that grass fed meat existed but didn't really think there was a difference at first. But once I started digging into my love for health along with my love for food I started looking at the higher quality places for information. One of the first things I saw was a video from Alton Brown on grass-fed beef. He basically explained the fact that cows and many other ruminants are supposed to eat grass, and how their bodies are designed to eat grass. After watching that video my entire perspective grass-fed meat completely changed, and for the better.
Q: Why is it so important to have the right ingredients?
It's the ingredients that make up the dish. If you have dirt ingredients, then you have dirt. If you have high quality healthy ingredients, then you have a high quality and healthy dish that is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face.
Q: What are the most important keys to success for the home chef?
Stay ahead of the game. Try not to do to many last minute dishes because they will most likely stress you out and make a mess of the kitchen. Try to plan out your meals, pick out your meats first then your vegetables. Or try and decide on a dish according to season or region. Cooking seasonally or by region can be the most fun in my opinion. Then once you have that down you can mix and match all of your meals and keep from having the same meal over and over. Plus it's healthy to mix and match what you eat as much as possible. Eating the same thing over and over isn't just boring but your body craves change.
Q: What are your best tips for home cooking?
Try and remember "mise en place" which is French for "everything in place". The idea here is once you have figured out what you are going to cook be sure to measure out and have all of your ingredients chopped, minced, pureed or whatever the instructions called for and set out and ready for cooking. That way you can simply toss each ingredient in at the necessary time. This has not only helped me get dishes done a lot faster but it keeps the kitchen fairly clean and keeps you from burning something in the skillet while your taking however long chopping that tiny little chili.
Q: What is your favorite recipe using grass-fed meat?
I love complex flavors in a dish, and I love eating fall apart meat when it's slowly cooked to perfection. Fall apart meat is always alluring to me, but my all time favorite recipe for grass fed meat is actually quite simple. It's a pan roasted tenderloin with a little bit of salt and pepper and a little bit of chopped rosemary and minced garlic cooked to a beautiful medium rare. There aren't too many ingredients nor many flavors but the simplicity of it really brings out the flavor of the meat itself, and when you have a nice quality piece of meat it is oh so worth it.

Oder River
Oder River
geographical nameRiver, northern Europe. It flows from its source in the Oder Mountains in the Czech Republic north through western Poland, where it forms the boundary between Poland and Germany. As the second largest river emptying into the Baltic Sea, it is economically important as a transport route. Navigable for 475 mi (765 km), it is connected by canal with the Vistula River and with the western European waterway system. It was partially internationalized under the Treaty of Versailles in 1919. Considered German until the 1945 Potsdam settlement, it was formally recognized as the Polish-German border in 1950 by East Germany and in 1970 by West Germany.

The Rubin The Miracle of Weebosch
The Miracle of Weebosch
Price: $15.00
2011, Netherlands, Wendelien Voogd, 50 min.
The blessing of the horses is the highlight of the still very popular annual Gerard Procession at the Saint Gerard Majella Church in Weebosch. The Miracle of Weebosch follows three teenage equestrians in the lead-up to the procession. Their expectations, insecurities, and love of horses are rendered with tenderness.
The Catholic celebration lives on in the village, but it's not easy for everyone to uphold the tradition in these modern times. Some people are struggling with the question of whether it makes sense to pray, burn a candle, or receive a blessing. Others don't understand why God saves one child but not another. "Pay a visit to Gerard, for the hopeless cases," says the priest to an elderly lady who is at her wits' end because of her physical condition. "You can at least ask him."

I was vacationing in texas, and being a gardener, stopped at the corpus christi botanical gardens. I saw this amazing creation there, and took pics just for you folks! I wish I had had more time, I would have loved to get the story on this, it was just stuck in the middle of nowhere in the garden. Sue

Great photos! Did you get to actually sit on it? I would love to know how comfortable this type of bench is. I keep thinking these could be pretty comfortable if the design was right but I don't know what that means exactly. Laura |
That is quite beautiful. So much work went into it! I'd imagine it's as comfortable as any stone bench would be...when you need to get off your feet, anything will do! haha. I'm hoping to make a stone 'throne' in my back yard one day. I saw an inspiration in a book and it's been eating away at me. This photo just pushed it up a line or two on my mental to-do list. |

[115] ERCC1 Expression and Complete Pathologic Response to Platinum-Based Therapy for Patients with Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Carmen Gomez-Fernandez, Maureen Cioffi-Lavina, Jude Hurley, Gail Walker, Jennifer J Hu, Merce Jorda. Jackson Memorial Hospital, Miami, FL; University of Miami School of Medicine, Miami, FL; Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, Miami, FL
Background: Platinum-based chemotherapy exerts its cytotoxic effects by forming intra-strand DNA adducts that inhibit replication. Excision Repair Cross Complementing group 1 protein (ERCC1) plays a critical, yet undesirable, role in repair of DNA damage induced by platinum. Absence of immunohistochemical expression of ERCC1 has been shown to be associated with response to platinum-based chemotherapy regimens in non small cell lung carcinomas. Experimental data suggests that triple negative breast cancers (TNBC) may have increased sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy, particularly in BRCA1 mutation carriers, whose cancers cluster among the basal-like subtype, as defined by gene expression profiling. We investigated the immunohistochemical expression of ERCC1 in relation to response to neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy in a cohort of patients with TNBC.
Design: We reviewed the diagnostic core biopsies of 80 TNBC patients treated with neoadjuvant docetaxel plus platinum-based salts at our institution between 1999 and 2007. Twenty-eight (35%) study patients had pathologic complete response (pCR), defined by the absence of invasive carcinoma in the breast and axilla. Immunohistochemistry for ERRC1 (ABCAM) was performed in all cases using the LSAB method. A nuclear immunohistochemical reaction in >1% of the tumor cells was scored as positive for ERCC1. Fisher's exact test was used to compare pCR rates by ERCC1 status.
Results: Of 80 TNBC, 55 (69.75%) were positive for ERCC1 by immunohistochemistry. Reactivity was present in 10 to 100% of the tumor cell nuclei. The remaining 25 (31.25%) carcinomas were definitively negative for ERCC1. A higher pCR rate was found among patients with ERCC1(−) tumors, 12/25 (48%), compared to 16/55 (29.1%) patients with ERCC1(+) tumors, but did not reach statistical significance p=0.131. A one-sided test for higher pCR rates among ERCC1(-) patients was marginally significant, p=0.083, Fisher's exact test.
Conclusions: Absence of immunohistochemical expression for ERCC1 was marginally predictive of higher pathologic complete response to platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients withTNBC. A larger study is needed to further elucidate the relationship between ERCC1 expression and response to platinum-based therapy for patients with TNBC.

I am lusting over this plant ever since I saw it in a catalog! Most informational sites state hardy to zone 5, perhaps 4, and in woodland setting.
I am willing to push the zone just to give it a try. Problem is I have only found two mailorder nurseries that carry it and they both have terrible ratings on Garden Watchdog. Anyone familiar with this plant and/or know where I might get some? Thanks! Linda |

I bought one three years ago from Easyliving Wildflowers at easywildflowers.com. So far it manages to pop up in June each year out here in the frozen waste lands. It is in exposed location and I do nothing to protect it. But, after the -26f this January, I'll have to wait a bit more to see if it is still there. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Easy Wildflowers
I bought one from Munchkin Nursery a couple of years ago. It didn't return, but I think it was my fault, not the nursery's. I gave it a moist, rich soil in the shade, however. |
Does anyone have seeds of Marilandica spigelia that came from the wild, or from multiple seedlings? The problem with mail order nursery material is that often, this plant is propagated by root-division; no genetic diversity; all clonal. Thank you, |
I traded for one four years ago. It grew slowly but last year had nine flowering stems and was really lovely. |

No less an authority on romance than Owen Wilson's character from Wedding Crashers—John Beckwith, for you Frat Pack superfans out there—once said that true love was "your soul's recognition of its counterpoint in another." (He read it on a bumper sticker and now uses it to pick up vulnerable bridesmaids.) In other words, true love is when you find the person whose soul seems to be the perfect match to yours, intertwining like a perfect musical harmony, different but complementary however the specific fit.
But another authority on the matter or romance—Jerry Seinfeld, or the fictional version of himself he played on his eponymous sitcom—had another discovery about romance, at least briefly, after falling in love with a woman who shares a virtually identical personality to himself, down to sharing the same initials. "Now I know what I've been looking for all these years—myself!" he rhapsodizes to Kramer after their first encounter. "I've been waiting for me to come along, and now I've swept myself off my feet!"
Justin Timberlake's "Mirrors" is kind of a blend of these two ideas of love, though probably closer in the end to the Crashers notion. While "Suit & Tie," the first song released from Timberlake's upcoming 20/20 Experience album, was deemed "wedding music" by many publications for its crowd-pleasing hooks and positive, celebratory vibe, "Mirrors" is wedding music in a more literal sense—the song is very clearly a loving ode to his recent bride Jessica Biel, down to an extended outro repeatedly proclaiming "You are, you are / The love of my life" and JT explaining "You're the inspiration for this precious song."
And how does Timberlake view his celebrity wife? Well, essentially, as himself—a reflection of himself, at least. The words "reflection" and "mirror" pop up in basically every verse and chorus to the song, driving the point home to an almost oppressive degree that JT sees himself in the eyes his new bride. "It's like you're my mirror / My mirror staring back at me," he sings in the pivotal line of the chorus. "I couldn't get any bigger / With anyone else beside me."
It's tempting to write this sentiment off as typical super-celebrity vanity, especially for a pop star as trasnparently cocky as Justin Timberlake, since taken at face value, the lyrics sorta sound like he loves his wife because he can see so much of himself in her. ("Oh, so you married a mirror? Guess you really do just love yourself.") But other lyrics suggest that that's far too literal an interpretation, and that Timberlake's sentiment is actually a much less narcissistic one—that maybe he means "mirror" in more of the Wedding Crashers, counterpoint sense than the self-obsessed Seinfeld one.
For one, it seems like he sees himself as being Biel's mirror, as well—"We're making two reflections into one," he states on the chorus, later insisting to her "keep your eyes on me." He also sees her as her own entity unto herself, separate from him entirely, explicitly saying about her "Aren't you somethin', an original." And perhaps most tellingly—and perhaps somewhat ironically—having his love as his mirror allows JT to change and become a better man, Timberlake singing "I can't ever change without you" and later "So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone." Having a mirror put up to himself allows JT to see his imperfections, and gives him reason to want to change them.
In the end, it's actually a very sweet and thoughtful love song, and one that even a famous person like Biel would probably be flattered to have written about them. And hell, not even Seinfeld viewed the notion of finding love through your exact replica as a sustainable formula—by the end of the episode, Jerry turns against his female equivalent, realizing "I can't be with someone like me.. I hate myself!! If anything, I need to get the exact opposite of me!"

As childhood obesity has reached epidemic proportions, it is critical to devise interventions that target the root causes of obesity and its risk factors.
The two main components of childhood obesity are physical inactivity and improper nutrition, and it is becoming increasingly evident that the built environment can determine the level of exposure to these risk factors. Research demonstrates that neighborhood features such as walkability/bikeability, mixed land use, accessible destinations, and transit increase resident physical activity; also that access to high-caloric foods and convenience stores increases risk of overweight and obesity, whereas the presence of neighborhood supermarkets and farmers' markets is associated with lower childhood body mass index and overweight status.
It is evident that a child's built environment impacts his access to nutritious foods and physical activity. In order for children, as well as adults, to prevent onset of overweight or obesity, they need safe places to be active and local markets that offer affordable, healthy food options. Interventions that are designed to provide safe, walkable neighborhoods with access to necessary destinations will be effective in combating the epidemic of obesity.

i was riding yesterday and had a weird issue with my sled. It starts great and runs great most of the time, however once we were in some deeper snow and hill climbing for 5 minutes, the sled would have full RPM's and then the RPMS would drop right off and the sled would bog down. I have to let the thorttle all the way off and then I can get good revs again and get moving. It seems to get worse once it starts.
Any helpful hints or suggestions would be great.

This paper presents a simple but reliable fabrication process for microfluidic devices on glass substrate using wet etching technology. Instead of using expensive Pyrex glasses as substrates and depositing expensive metal or polysilicon/amorphous silicon as etch masks in conventional method, glass slide is used as substrate and a single-layer negative photoresist RFJ-220 is used as the etching mask. The etch rates, generation of defects, undercut ratio and surface roughness are studied. In order to achieve high etching depth and smooth surface, buffered oxide etching with hydrochloric acid as additive is proposed. By proper cleaning and long-time hard baking, the undercut ratio can approach to 1. An 110μm depth microchannel with smooth surface is achieved. This fabrication process leads to a considerable reduction of process steps, fabrication time and material consumption. With this technique, we successfully fabricated a microfluidic device, which is used in the capture of hepatoma cells HepG2.

An inmate died at the Montana State Prison on Monday evening.
According to a news release from Linda Moodry, the prison's public information officer, Matthew Lawrence Demary, 47, collapsed Monday night near the officer station of the prison's Work Re-Entry Center. He was taken to a hospital and declared dead.
Moodry said Demary's death doesn't appear to be suspicious and an official cause of death has not yet been released.
"His death was unexpected and an autopsy will be performed by the state medical examiner," she said.
A judge in Richland County sentenced Demary to 300 months in prison in 2002 for sexual intercourse without consent in June of 2001.
Also in 2002, he was sentenced in Richland County for two counts of sexual assault and one count of tampering with witnesses or informants.

Grossman's possible opportunity in D.C., and Buffalo may not be that bad after all. Greg Gabriel
The Redskins may not have Donovan McNabb for their season opener against Dallas. If this is the case, Rex Grossman will get the call. This will be a great opportunity for Grossman to revive his career.
In 2006, when Grossman was the quarterback of the Bears, he was one of the hottest quarterbacks in the league for the first five games. The Bears went 5-0, and Grossman completed 93 of 152 passes for 1,243 yards and 10 touchdowns. He threw only two interceptions in those five games, and his quarterback rating was well over 100.
ICONWill Rex Grossman get the call for the Redskins in the opener?
However, he followed that hot start with a horrible game on Monday Night Football in Arizona. In that game he threw four interceptions and he never recovered. In my 28 years in the NFL, I have never seen any player brutalized by the media more than Grossman was after that game. The national media continued with that harsh criticism the rest of the season. He followed the Arizona game with a strong 23-of-29, 252-yard, 3-touchdown performance against San Francisco, but he lacked consistency the rest of the year. He would follow a good game with a mediocre game. The beating he took from the national media was nonstop. By the end of the season he was a player that was afraid to make a mistake and had lost confidence in his ability.
I'm not saying he didn't deserve criticism. But I am saying that he was criticized way more than he deserved. The fact remains that with Grossman as the quarterback, the Bears won the NFC championship before losing in the Super Bowl to the Colts. The Bears have not been back to the playoffs since that 2006 season.
Grossman no longer has some of the physical traits he had when he came out of college. Because he is barely 6-1, he had to get by with his strong arm, quick release and his ability to move around in the pocket. He has had some severe leg injuries during his career and because of that he has lost much of that mobility. Now he needs time to make plays but he still has a very strong arm and very good accuracy on the deep ball. Because he lacks top mobility he may never be a fulltime starting quarterback in the league but he has a chance to be a top backup and win games if the starter goes down.
Many have the Buffalo Bills as a lock to be the weakest team in the league and the front runner to hold the first pick in next April's draft. I'm not so sure that is going to be the case. I know it's preseason, but Buffalo has very quietly won two games in a row and done it very convincingly. The Bills beat Indianapolis in Toronto 34–20 and Cincinnati at home 35–20. Those are teams that are supposed to be playoff teams. The surprising thing is they have done it with a potent offense that has passed and run the ball equally well. Their defense has been solid also. Buffalo's starters outplayed the starters of both Indy and Cincinnati, and the team has been playing with confidence. When you have a team that hasn't won in awhile like Buffalo, the first thing you have to build is team confidence. New head coach Chan Gailey seems to be doing that. The Bills are not a playoff team, but they are stronger than many believe.

Last week, it was Berrian the playmaker. This week, Rex Grossman was "the hottest QB in the league". From a former Bears personnel guy...
Somewhere Lombardi is gathering notes for a column on over-valuing your own personnel.
It is a fact that Grossman was the Player of the Month in September, 2006. You can look it up.
The AZ game exposed the flaws in his game. The leg injuries limited his ability to avoid the pass rush and his gunslinger mentality led to turnovers. The beating he took in the press was just plain meanness and an embarrassment for Bears fans. There was a meathead element that lowered the perception of Bears fans. And the national media picked up on it like the chum Jaws picked up from Capt. Brodey.
He was blamed for everything that went wrong witht the Bears. I'm surprised he wasn't blamed for Katrina.
I wish him nothing but the best. And he will have a long productive career as a topnotch backup
Vince Young(Baby Huey) and Matt Leinart have been two emotionally brittle QBs who the media have taken it easy on compared to what Grossman had to go through. I remember when Rex actually was a mobile QB who could scramble when needed and buy time to find the open receiver. That being said, I think he made a mistake when I saw him listed as heavy as 236 on some sites compared to his listed weight of 218. Look at Favre's stats in his mid years, if he were a young QB without the rep, he would have been benched.
"And he will have a long productive career as a topnotch backup" -- Um, no he won't, but nice try..
Before we put Grossman on this pedestal, the "hottest QB of the month" in 06 played against no teams who finished with a winning record that month, and only one who managed an 8-8 record (GB).
You bring up a good point doc_al, were on to you Gabriel...
Thanks for noticing the Bills, Greg. Don't know that they're a playoff team, but Gailey is doing good things and they could open some eyes this year.
I was one of Grossman's biggest fans when he was with the Bears and I fully acknowledge that Chicago would never have made it to XLI if Grossman didn't make some of the throws he did in the Divisional and Championship games.
In the first five games, his stats looked incredible. However, teams gameplanning against the Bears began to pick up on the terrible mechanics and bad habits he displayed even then. He was routinely throwing off his back foot after running away from pressure. Many times it was just sheer luck that he didn't get picked off. The writing was on the wall, we as euphoric Bears fans just couldn't see it at the time.
To say he played mediocre at times is a severe understatement. He had some games in which he looked dowright awful. In the last game of the season vs. Green Bay he looked like a high school quarteback. In the Super Bowl he lost all of his composure and forgot his mechanics, falling back on his bad habits. That, and Ron Turner's passive play calling on defense, cost them the game.
I wish Rex the best of luck and I always cheer for him. Nevertheless, he wore out his welcome in Chicago because his inconsistency got the better of him.
I'm so glad someone doesn't expect the Bills to have a top draft pick next year. I agree, they are a long way from competing for the division, but they will be better than people expect this year. Chan Gailey has done many things right in that organization.
Well and you compare Rex Grossman to his-then backup, Kyle Orton (whom we Broncos fans love!) and Orton has gotten crap everywhere he's been. Yet, somehow, you don't hear about Orton ever falling prey to criticism. Sexy Rexy needs thicker skin. What the Redskins really need is Donovan to be healthy so they can be a playoff team.

Once you step out of any of the hotels many sea-facing balconies it is easy to understand why they are considering changing their name to reflect the gorgeous and unrestricted vistas across the English Channel.

Eastbourne has good road links to the M25 and by direct train is about 55 minutes away from London Gatwick International Airport and about 85 minutes away from London Victoria.

Along with its name change from "The Eastbourne Centre", The View has gone through a transformation in the past two years and has been recently refurbished to a high standard. The building is still owned by the Unite Union which is why they offer first-class conference facilities, but the management have begun seeking a name for themselves as a destination hotel on the south-coast.

Love the idea of the warmer but it takes too long to heat up - about an hour. The wax worked well & was good at grabbing the hair but it needs to be applied thick enough to get an edge to pull off. Because of this I spent a lot of time scratching wax off my skin & only got half as much waxing done for the amount that came with the kit. I'd rather deal with strips & cover more real estate in less time.

I read some reviews before I bought it and didnt expect a good result But then realized I wanted to try it anyway for myself. Its not that expensive, i got it 19.99 with a 25% discount at cvs so was a good deal.i am glad I did. It did take a long time to warm up you definitely don't want to start bikini area until it is all warmed up . I left it on for 40 minutes . I started doing my eyebrows, not a problem it melts thick it's easy to peel off. Now for the difficult part that bikini area, I started left to right, doing very small square patches... It took me awhile , Im not a professional And I got tired But was able to do it! The End result I can say was just like the salon so I save myself money and the Dreaded visit. lol Now I wasn't able to do the whole brazilian Maybe next time when I get better at it I will . Ireally recommended just keep in mind has to be hot do not try and do it when it's not fully warmed And you can tell when moving the wax with a stick if it's gooey or not. it comes with a handfull of sticks you only need one, theres no need for cloth strips just have some baby oil handy. I had a good result with it and look forward to using it in the privacy of my home!

I just bought this and wished that I had read these reviews beforehand. First of all, the power cord is EXTREMELY short, making it difficult to situate the tin when heating it up. The wax takes forever to heat up and is extremely difficult to get off because it's so sticky.

This was the worst and messiest home wax kit I've ever used. I am pretty good at waxing and have used a bunch of other at home waxes and never had one that was this messy. There were some problems with the heating device, but once I pressed the pot firmly into it that was fine. However, that did not stop the wax from being way too runny and getting everywhere. Then, to top it off, this wax did NOT stand up to the coarse hair on my legs or bikini line. I have used a hard wax like this before (Parissa, and a few other brands) and had much better results.
So overall, this was just the worst. It hurt, didn't work, and made a huge mess.

I decided to be done with shaving 7 or so months ago (I'd always waxed my upper lip anyway). I got professional waxes a few times but it definitely gets expensive, so I started trying home waxes. I've been going back-and-forth on how I feel about this product since I first bought it about 5 months ago. I've bought refills at least twice since then, so there are obviously a few things I like about it.
I know there have been a lot of complaints about the heating device, but I've had no issues with it. Once I sit the refill it in, I wait about 15 minutes -- by then the puck has softened enough that I can sort of flip it over so it continues to melt. Mine's usually melted in 30 minutes at the most that way.
I have had *great* experiences waxing my underarms with this kit. I've used other waxes before and ended up with a yeast infection in my armpit. Disgusting and uncomfortable! This kit takes me about five minutes to do both underarms and does remove most of the hair. And most important, no infections.
Upper lip and brows have been a breeze with this kit for me.
But that's where the goodness ends. I've tried my legs a few times and the wax gets too dry and brittle on them, breaking off all over my floor. No thank you!
And ah, the dreaded pubic hair. I've attempted that area three times and after each have said, "I'm NEVER doing that again!". Some of this is probably user-error, but I have ended up with wax stuck to delicate areas (if that doesn't make you panic, I don't know what will!) and when I've been "successful" I've bruised. Not comfortable or appealing. I've done pretty significant research and do understand how to wax most successfully in this area, always trim first, but still have had minimal success. Bummer.
So I'll continue to buy this product for my facial hair and underarms, but this time I truly am never waxing my pubic hair with it. Or my legs.

I loved the idea of this product - the warmer is smaller than a coke can and I like the way the cord is tucked neatly underneath. Unfortunately, this just didn't work for me. At all.
The warmer has issues. I popped the wax container in and forgot about it for about 45 minutes. When I remembered, I went back to look, and the wax hadn't melted at all. It turns out the container wasn't firmly seated in the warmer. It *looked* like it was all the way in, but I guess it wasn't. I pressed it down as hard as I could (there's no "click" or anything to tell you when you've got it inserted properly). It didn't feel like I pressed it in any farther than it was, but it must have made a difference because the wax began to warm up.
The wax itself was no good. It didn't grip the hair at all, so when I pulled it off, no hair came with it. And when I say "no hair," I mean NONE. The wax also became very brittle as it cooled, so it was a mess to remove and clean up - wax crumbs everywhere.
