Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios & Lunch at Hollywood & Vine
Let me start this day out by saying that Bill and I are really not huge fans of Animal Kingdom or the Studios. It's not because of what is there (or what isn't) or for any of the more obvious reasons... but because it seems they are always packed with people and the layout with the trees/tall buildings doesn't allow for much breeze so we end up hot and miserable within a few hours. Now... with that said... this quickly became my DREAM day (key word there... keep reading).
We started out the morning at Animal Kingdom. We had two things we wanted to do here. First, hit Kilimanjaro Safari, second hit the Nemo musical. When we arrived at the park it hadn't opened yet and we were stopped as the opening ceremony (which you can't really see unless you're in the front two rows because of the incline of the tunnel) was going on. When it finished and they allowed folks in, we were in a ginormous mass of people, all of whom apparently had one of two goals.
1) Hit Everest before the queue gets insane
2) Hit the Safari before the animals disappear into the shade to keep cool
Unfortunately, since we fell into group number 2, we were met with about a 45 minute wait by the time we all squeezed into the queue for the Safari. About halfway through which we realized we had left the camera in the car. So, what happened? Oh we saw TONS of animals... up close and personal... and caught none of it on camera. :no:
Because of the unexpected wait at KS we didn't get off the trip until about 4 minutes before Nemo was about to begin on the other side of the park. So, we missed it once again. We had to head over to the Studios to do lunch at Play & Dine at 11:45.
As usual, The Studios were packed! As we walked in we were greeted by a hilarious cast member dressed as a cop riding a "horse". Most people were ignoring him as they ran to wherever they were going but I stopped and listened to him. He cracked me up. He said his name was "Officer Dunkin Donut". HAH!!
We were still a bit early for lunch so we decided to make our way toward the new Toy Story attraction to see if we could grab any shots. On our way I go to grab a few shots of the new sign outside the animation area and of the Ariel-less poster above VoLM.
Unfortunately there were some very high bushes moved into place so you couldn't get anywhere near it with a rather rude, female CM standing out in front. I say rude because we attempted to joke with her and said "Just look the other way, we're going to go through this opening here to grab some shots of the ride and be back." Her response was "No, I don't think so." in a very stern voice. We were just kidding lady... seriously...
So...... since we were already there we decided to hop into One Man's Dream. Mommy being the Walt Disney fan she is, this is always like a mecca for me, so I love doing it. But, in the past we've skipped it because Aaron was just too little.
As we turned the corner into the attraction we saw a family in front of us being presented with Dream Fast Passes. My heart sunk. Had we not wasted time with madam rudeness, we would've won.
WAIT... huh? What do you mean? WE WON THEM TOO???? OH MY GOD!!! People I lost it. I was tearing up and shaking and just plain lost it. I GOT A DREAM!!!!!! :yahoo::yahoo:
As I tried to calm myself, I quickly called my mother to rub it in. "Take a picture of it" she said... so... here ya go mom...
We then made our way through One Man's Dream... which now of course is my favorite Studios attraction BY FAR after having this memory to go along with it. The below shot of Walt came out amazing. My husband was actually taken aback by it when he saw it because it looks so real.
Can't you just picture Walt sitting here working away on his Florida Project?
New little "electronic media" section that we'd not seen before.
After leaving One Man's Dream we headed over to check-in for lunch. As we sat I noticed some great theming in the windows above. It's these little touches so many folks miss, that make Disney what it is.
At this point I'm still high on having a dream come true so there was little to upset me... but we were getting REALLY hot and had barely done a thing all day.
We were seated as soon as the restaurant opened for lunch at Hollywood & Vine. First, let me just say that the food here is incredible. It was one of the best lunches we had the whole trip. I was truly impressed and could've kept eating and eating and eating I fear. Luckily I stopped after two full dessert plates.
Unfortunately, Play & Dine is effected by the same issues that plague Chef Mickey's. A big restaurant with lots of tables for the characters to visit in between being interrupted to do little dances up front. We had been telling Aaron the whole trip he'd have lunch with Leo and we feared, after finishing dessert, that he was going to miss him... or, if he saw him, it'd be just like Mickey two days before... running from table to table with no "quality" time. We were so wrong...
Leo came to our table and I said "Oh Leo, Aaron has been waiting all day to meet you! He was so afraid you weren't coming." Leo gave Aaron a huge hug and spent a really long time at our table with him. Playing and coloring and posing for pictures. I even got him to give me the "bad mommy" sign (no-no fingers) when Aaron poked him in the eye. Why? Well my response was "Well Leo if you had glass in your glasses that wouldn't happen." LOL!!
After lunch we decided to head over and catch Lights, Motors, Action! before going back to our room for Aaron's nap. FINALLY this time the two scenes they skipped on our previous trip (before Aaron was born) were included.
As we left LMA, we noticed new theming going up in the Muppet Area. To save on Trip Report space, I'll just link to that thread so you can see it there.
Then it was off to our resort for a nap... for all of us... we may not have done much but the heat today was slowly getting every last bit of energy from us.

HI Patrick and Holly,

We enjoyed the private patio, access to the private pool for the condo's as well as the Beach Club. LaPaz is my favorite vacation and now, your condo is my favored place to go. J Thank you for allowing us to rent it on short notice. Cindy and Bernie did a wonderful job. They were so helpful as well as the book they put together…we found some new places including the wonderful organic juice bar. (The owner does massages next door.)
Thank you so much, Miller's!
There are companies near by for wind surfing.

Mobile marketing has closely followed the fast ascent of smartphone penetration around the globe. Developed markets like that of the US, UK, much of Europe, several countries in Africa, and across Asia and the Pacific have seen marked growth in the use of smartphones. What is most relevant to SEO companies and social media marketing professionals, however, is the fact that search behavior has grown along with the adoption of the smartphone. People are using them to conduct their internet searchers more and more thus opening up the opportunity for businesses to conduct paid search and SEO campaigns to target the mobile searchers. Now Google is looking to the developing markets in Latin America as regions ripe for Android predicting them to take off in the coming years.
Latin America in Focus
There are currently more than 600 million mobiles in Latin America, and although only 1% of the 200 million devices sold in the region as a whole in 2011 were smartphones, the rate is expected to climb. Google estimates for the smartphone adoption are highest in Chile at 25%, Argentina with 24%, and 13% in Brazil. Google sees special opportunity in the Brazilian market because it is largely a blank canvas without any trending devices or popular customer manufacture preferences, and Google wants to assert themselves in that position. This notion is echoed by the fact that Google Play, their market for digital content, will offer e-books and music in the Brazilian market very soon.
Businesses should look to the Latin American markets for opportunity more as they develop their smartphone capabilities. As adoption increases, there are simply going to be more customers for products and services, and businesses will have greater access to them through increased internet access and mobile web access. Coordinated social media and SEO campaigns can take a business to the next level and gain an increased foothold in such new markets.
Reach out to me directly at rbuddenhagen(at)webimax.com and @ryanwbudd for more information about the Latin American markets and the opportunity that exist there.
Google has been no stranger to legal issues with investigations being conducted into privacy and antitrust matters among others for a considerable period now in all corners of the word. In France, Google has been fined €100,000 for collecting data from wireless networks with their Latitude Program and Street view, had a privacy dispute with the embarrassing Frenchman picture/Street View case, and was taken to court by a map-making company who filed an unfair competition complaint against Google for providing a service for free that they charge for – Google was fined €500,000.
In Germany, the Street View was received with great skepticism and concern over privacy before it was eventually accepted, and across the EU as well as in the US, the company is being investigated for antitrust concern. We have written about these various cases and will continue to do so because as Google is the undisputed leader in the search industry, what they are dealing with matters for SEO companies and the industry at large.
Now, the company has officially acknowledged two other inquiries that are currently ongoing in two other countries, Argentina and South Korea. Google has had its share of issues already in South Korea, as last year government officials searched the company's office as part of an investigation into Street View data collection. Now, the Korea Fair Trade Commission has an inquiry that began last year on the business practices of the company. In South America, the Argentinian Competition Commission is conducting a preliminary investigation into the company's search and advertising, and Google is cooperating fully in the inquiry.
According to The Washington Post, Argentina's antitrust agency began their investigation in November of 2010 to establish if their presumably dominant position in the search and ad industries precludes other players from gaining any relevant market share. Additionally, the El Cronista newspaper made a report last year the agency was investigating whether or not Google accepted money in return for increasing certain website rankings. This last speculation is a hefty one and it is unclear if the agency is actually investigating such an issue.
Businesses looking to optimize their websites and additional properties in social media and other areas need to keep an eye on Google and understand how the latest legal dealings could impact search going forward. To a large extent, Google is bearing the brunt of legal ramifications that come from being the industry leader in a constantly evolving industry. As I have written before, the company's technologies are challenging legal frameworks in new ways and not until the new applications of existing laws to all of the internet's activities have been worked out, will Google settle in and be moving forward without such constant litigation. In the meantime, search engine optimization consultants and others in the industry are evaluating how legal decisions and pressure impact their services for the businesses that use them.
For more information on how search engine optimization consultants can assist your business in tracking industry changes and optimize accordingly, reach out to me directly at rbuddenhagen@webimax and @ryanwbudd.

Would between 8 an 10 gigs be enough??
- 12-22-2005 #2
Between 8 and 10 may be okay, depending on what you want it for. If you want to use a GUI as well as the full office suite, you might have a few space issues, but overall you may be okay.
Also, I don't understand the FAT32 / NTFS issue. I have had before an NTFS partition with Windows and an ext3 partition with Linux on the same hard drive...

I've used 10 gigs for gentoo /-partition many times before, it's enough... However, stating that it's enough, I assume you will use it for the system files, not for 50 gigs of videos

This is a modified version of a recipe on allrecipes.com that I enjoy greatly and that gives you a lot of protein, a lot of taste, and very few calories. You could make it much faster and easier with pre-prepared chicken breast, first sauteed with the onions and garlic in olive oil. You would increase the amount of broth by 1/2 cup or so and wouldn't use water in that scenario. Submitted by TISHARAY Carbs: 16.4g | Fat: 1.4g | Fiber: 5g | Protein: 18.3g | Calories: 150.8

- " FIRST: this is a hostel with an "ageism" policy - does not accept those over 35! Facilities are very poor, cramped. crowded. The private two bed room we booked was a bunk bed in a prison cell! Corridors cramped, so were the showers. I do not recommend this hostel, it is very expensive for what it offers. We have found much better conditions nearby for the same price! "
- 18 Oct 2014 Ewa Canada
- " On the first night I was awakened by a loud conversation on the stairs. Having gone outside to ask the group to respect others' sleep, I was told they are 'the people cleaning the rooms'. Back in my room, I could here remarks such as, "welcome to hostels" and "no one comes to hostels expecting to sleep". Some customers staying at your hostel do, sorry! The guys at the reception were always up to standard, and the rest of the stay went smoothly, but can't help second thoughts on coming back. "

- " Great hostel! The best location ever, nice rooms and facilities. Good breakfast, big kitchen. Wifi everywhere. Very cool staff! Will come back, no doubt about it!!!! "
- 06 Sep 2014 Anonymous Argentina
- " This is one of the best hostel experiences I have ever had. The staff were fun, friendly, and extremely accessible. 24-hour reception meant that someone was always there to help with anything I needed. The environment is very friendly; this is a great hostel to stay in if you are traveling alone, because you will meet lots of cool people. It is a very communal environment, and everyone seems to know each other. Facilities are always clean and well-kept. "

- " The location is excellent, the 4-bed dorms are quiet enough for sleep, and, after three stays at this hostel, there is every reason to come back another time. "
- 24 Jul 2014 Anonymous Latvia
- " Awful hostel. It's filthy. The shower is a poorly ventilated closet; it was covered in mold and very unpleasant to use. Staff are friendly but VERY unprofessional. Each morning, two came in to clean the room at 10am, which I found absurdly early. It just seemed rude to proceed as if I wasn't there. While cleaning they complained openly about their supervisor, who would then come in and berate them in front of me, incl. saying "you're not retarded" (!) while scolding them. Not OK. "

Back on My Feet can impact people whether they are part of our organization or not. We hope to share testimonials from anyone who has a story to tell about their experience with our organization. Contact us if you have one to share!
This testimonial comes from Vicky Vadlamani of Back on My Feet Washington D.C. Team Emery House:
I was laid off in February, and after a few weeks of having no luck, for a long time fell into a serious depression. I would go days without leaving my house, or sometimes even showering, as foul as that sounds. Without a routine, I was sleeping during the day and staying up all hours of the night, and became a social recluse. I have been running for most of my adult life, and have always used that to relive stress and tension, but I had come to the point where I couldn't even motivate myself to lace up my shoes.
Lily Badger, a friend of mine, told me that after she quit her job she found BOMF and it gave her a purpose. I realized I needed that in my life, so as soon as the DC chapter opened, I joined Team Emery House. As sappy as it sounds, it was the motivation I needed to get my life and my confidence back on track. As someone who defines herself by her career success, not having that really affected my self esteem. With BOMF I was able to focus and devote time and energy on someone other than myself. It was great to be able to share my love for running with someone who needed a motivator more than I did. I have no doubt that the members of BOMF did more for me than I could ever do for them, and for that I am truly grateful.

The encounter ensued as she and I occupied the two-stall facility before leaving the restaurant. Its not unusual for two women of the senior citizens variety to exchange pleasantries with a fellow-squatter, sight unseen. The telltale voices of elderly impatience have no qualms about sharing their bladder woes, and how they are familiar with every public ladies room in a hundred mile radius, going on about the disgracefully thin tissue most places supply with no regard for those with delicate conditions.
This person wasnt actually speaking, however, engrossed in a spirited trill of a robust, Southern Baptist wail, as if overcome with a spasm of emotion. Smirking and curious, I nearly toppled over trying to get a glimpse of her shoes, just breaths away, as though that would cast any light on who this singing soul might be and it wasnt even Sunday! I couldnt bring myself to leave until I saw her (it.) I chuckled, Do you feel that way all over? I asked for it!
As we unlatched and emerged from the defaced, stuffy, metal enclosures, facades of privacy, a small, plain, deeply tanned lady bounced out, like she wanted to do the boogaloo, her head jerking up and down and side to side, with a blast of something that in no way resembled Onward Christian Soldiers! White streaks mingling with her tangled, black hair and leathery character lines gave her face a mystical aura.
What she had been saying rang loud and clear. Delighted to share her exuberant message, that the good Lord is my strength and my salvation and He loves each one of us unconditionally, though we are sinners. When we welcome Him into our daily lives, He will care for us like the lost sheep.
It all happened so fast! She noticed my slight shuffle and bent posture immediately! I explained that I get weak sometimes due to Parkinsons Disease. I hadnt quite made it to the restroom door when her opened hands firmly clutched my head, vibrating to the intensity of persistent petitions to God to heal my body ravaged with disease.
She steadied me then as she adroitly guided me between tables, where noon diners and hustling waitresses paused to stare, all the while chanting her hands on petitions to God to cleanse me from all iniquity and physical distress. My mind kept repeating, I dont believe it! I told her that my husband was waiting for me out front.
I couldnt look at Pat as this doting lady, her arms around my waist, kindly opened the car door for me, placing a small pamphlet in my hand. We met eye to eye momentarily. Somehow I was moved to thank her for praying for me. Her face appeared softer and kinder then, as she drifted into the brightness of a new day and out of sight.
Pats expression was like, What the ? As I told my befuddled husband about the experience, we had to laugh, reasoning that the woman must be eccentric and out of touch with reality.
I opened the little booklet and thoughtfully read the familiar Bible verses. Somehow the messages always seem new and uplifting. Giving my unusual encounter some serious thought, I said, You know, that lady isnt crazy! She obviously lives out her convictions with genuine happiness, devoting her faith to the needs of others and for a more merciful and compassionate world. Shes really something!
I wish I had what she has.

Vegan Food Options in Salem, Oregon
You can view my updated post about Vegan Food Options in Salem, Oregon here.
Eating vegan has become very normal to me, but evidently it's not normal to a good portion of…anyone else in Salem, Oregon. I know other vegans are out there, so I wanted to share my favorite vegan spots in Salem. I will preface this by stating that I can be pretty picky about my food, I look for quality and good ingredients.
Food Options
Chipotle: Huge burritos here! If you have never been, you can choose your burritos or salad items on Lancaster Drive in North Salem. If you get the vegetarian one guacamole is included for no extra charge.
Marco Polo:This restaurant has an enormous menu. The average price of an entree is about $12 or $13. I haven't ate at this restaurant too much, but they do have good "global selections."
Muchas Gracias on Capitol Street: At Muchas there is one thing on the menu I get, although I am sure there are other options. I love their vegetarian burrito, but you have to go to the one on Capitol Street for this one! They fill it with beans, rice, pico de gallo, and guacamole instead of cheese. Don't worry I also looked up their tortilla ingredients, they use the local Don Pedro kind and they are vegan. I love it for breakfast or a quick dinner. Oh, and it is only $3.65.
Pita Pit: Here you can get a veggie pita, falafel or black bean pita, all delicious and filling. You can even make it a salad if your prefer. On State Street they even have vegan sauces listed on the board!
Venti's: This is a funky restaurant located in downtown Salem and on Commercial Street. While they don't have a huge selection of vegan options the choices they do have are extremely flavorful and just plain amazing. I highly recommend their yellow curry or a vegan black bean burger.
Venti's is also known for carrying tons of local beers. Their location on Commercial Street is actually a tap house, which makes it extra fun.
Willamette University: During the school year I highly recommend Goudy Commons (Rachael Ray from the Food Network actually went here on her $40 a day show). Goudy is affordable, but is also very high quality. They aim for healthy and local foods with a variety of different options such as pizza, burritos, quinoa salads, hemp burgers, soups, and more. Vegan, gluten free, soy free and vegetarian options are clearly marked here. Even if Goudy doesn't show it on their menu there is always something vegan to eat. They also do a dinner that is buffet style, yum!
The Cat Cavern at Willamette is also an option, it is the same Goudy food, but less variety.
Desserts and Drinks
Ike Box: Many coffee shops offer soy alternatives, but this downtown cafe takes it a step further and offers hemp milk too (try vanilla hemp in your coffee, you won't regret it). If you have a sweet tooth they also carry vegan and gluten free cookies.
Lucky Cat Bakery: Kelsey Quinn is the girl to call if you need some delicious homemade vegan cupcakes, cakes, scones or pretty much anything that is sweet and yummy. She does special orders, and she comes highly recommended by me. Currently, Kelsey is taking a break from taking special orders…Sad day… So she is not available to bake your yummy vegan treats. If she comes back to the bakery world hopefully I can add her back to this list.
Any vegan food places you know of?
If I missed any places feel free to add to my list. I would love to try out some new spots!

Tech is bound for a bowl, and maybe for the ACC title game
They're Ramblin' Wrecks from Georgia Tech, and they're rather happy. (AJC photo by Johnny Crawford)
A season going wrong has started to see almost everything go right. Georgia Tech can do no worse than tie for the Coastal Division title, and it mightn't have to share. "We still have all our goals on the board," quarterback Tevin Washington said Saturday, and if you don't count winning the national championship, he's absolutely correct.
Tech can play for the ACC title on Dec. 1 if Miami loses at Duke next week or if the Hurricanes, owing to pending NCAA sanctions, recuse themselves from postseason play. Even if Tech doesn't land in the conference championship game, it knows now it will grace some brand of bowl. Six weeks ago, none of this was a certainty. Six weeks ago, these Yellow Jackets could have been staring at 4-8.
But now, having beaten Duke 42-24 on Saturday, they're above .500 for the first time since Sept. 22, and they're headed for Athens next week on what you'd

Associations Focus: InfoComm International CTS-D Credential Earns ISO/IEC 17024 Accreditation
May 12, 2009 12:33 PM
First Young AV Professional Award Winners
InfoComm presented its new Young AV Professional Award to Steve Garber, president of BP Marketing Group, and James Maltese, CTS-D, CTS-I, president of Audio Visual Resources. The awards were presented at the InfoComm 100.
The Young AV Professional Award was created by InfoComm to recognize up-and-coming professionals in the audiovisual industry. These debut award winners are held in the highest esteem by their AV industry colleagues of all ages.
Steve Garber began his professional outsourced sales and marketing company, BP Marketing Group, in Savage, Minn., in 2001. Beginning by representing just one manufacturer, Garber has grown his business to include representation of more than 16 manufacturers in 18 states. His extreme work ethic and commitment to the AV resellers and consultants in the territory he represents is recognized on a national basis.
As a manufacturer's representative, Garber used his background in the office furniture industry to help Chief Manufacturing develop a division marketing to that segment. He was instrumental in bringing together two of his manufacturers, APC and Chief, to create several new products that use the power conditioning of APC in projector and flatpanel mount accessories from Chief. Garber was also one of the first firms to begin working in the digital-signage field. He has taken great lengths to service dealers by creating a centralized office location within his territory, which is used for regular training sessions and product showcases. Additionally, in 2008, Garber launched Global Business Services with several manufacturers and local service providers, creating the only telepresence suite in the greater Minneapolis area. Garber has served on InfoComm's Independent Reps Council and its steering committee, participating in three consecutive InfoComm leadership forums.
As president of AVR, Jim Maltese is directly responsible for the growth and development of all on the operations staff, and he has constantly helped improve the AVR Quality Management System, in Williston Park, N.Y. With engineering degrees from MIT and Stanford University, his disciplined thinking skills directly contribute to the growth and development of the corporation. Maltese has been praised for the patience he displays at working with demanding clients, and he is widely viewed as an example to those desiring customer-driven organizations.
Maltese has been an instructor for the InfoComm Academy; a CTS-D and CTS-I candidate evaluator; a retest evaluator; a reviewer for InfoComm Academy content, including the AV Installation Manual, Second Edition; and various course content materials. He has served on several subcommittees for InfoComm's Professional Education and Testing committee. He was a volunteer judge at InfoComm's two-rack building contests. He also regularly visits local high schools and middle schools to discuss AV career opportunities on behalf of the industry and is a regular seminar/workshop presenter at InfoComm.
"In a relatively short time Steve Garber and Jim Maltese have left an indelible imprint on the audiovisual industry and InfoComm International," Lemke says. "If the future of the AV industry hinges on their knowledge and record of success, I know the industry will be in good hands for generations to come."
Performance Standards Program has 200 Volunteers

This has probably been well covered before, but I missed it, and want to see if I am interpreting what I read correctly: fungii will succumb to other than neutral pH. Therefore, spraying with dilute vinegar (5/95), or a suspension of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) will control it. What are your results?
Does it follow then that, if your soil is acidic, you would be better to choose baking soda, and if your soil is alkaline, vinegar? Please enlighten me. Elk. |

Neither. A shovel. |
- Posted by Mike_Rivers z5 MI (My Page) on Sun, Jun 20, 04 at 22:05
Sodium bicarbonate, or better, potassium bicarbonate, will destroy the rose mildew fungus. The originator of the Cornell Formula, Kenneth Horst, has written that the effect is only partly due to the alkaline pH and partly due to specific reaction of the potassium and the bicarbonate ions. Vinegar is not very efficient at killing established mildew, although some people claim scrubbing the surface of the leaves with vinegar works. Neither acid nor base nor a synthetic fungicide will kill established blackspot without killing the leaf at the same time. Plants have their own method for regulating the pH of their internal liquids and the pH of the soil normally has no effect on plant pH. The color change seen in the flowers of some plants when grown on acidic soil results from a greater availibility of certain metals to the plant, and not from a change in the internal pH. |
Thank you, Mike! A little science in advance of the shovel, but really, I have only ever shovel-pruned the weakest, non-performing plants, and even the ugly, bare legs of Fanton Latour have only ever prompted me to move her where her legs can be hidden by perennials. And I have never ever sprayed for fungii nor insects. Apparently, that's not going to change anytime soon. Elk. |

To HollySprings: When you say a shovel is the cure for fungi, what exactly do you mean? Taking out established roses? That seems pessimistic and dire. Shoveling off the surface layer of soil? Since rose roots grow near the surface I'm wondering how safe this is. What do you suggest? I have distressing blackspot problems that extend even to my disease resistant varieties. |

Hi, Foxy, Al, and Roca - catching up on the threads.
I was sequestered into solitary confinement while I proof read a chapter for Sheep.
Now it's bedtime!
Love the kitteh pics.
And, I saw the reference to my "theme song" from the other day.
I haven't had a chance to listen to the last batch of songs but a lot bring back memories.
Born Free comes close to my theme song.
But, "The Impossible Dream" is really and truly my theme song.

>> Consuelo Castiglioni's vision for Fall 2012 looks something like this: polished, bright, and just a tad '60s — with a dash of Orientalism thrown in for good measure. Solid hues — tomato red, camel, grey, and baby blue — provide a high-contrast colorblock palette, while python, plaid, gold jacquard, and patent leather offer texture. Silhouettes are boxy, layered, and slightly round-shouldered on top, with knee-length skirts and creased ankle trousers lending a sense of straight-cut stability on bottom. "I was interested in architecture and controlled lines," Castiglioni explained.
Clean lines aside, this wouldn't be Marni without a fair amount of quirk. This season, it came in the form of oversize utility pockets, fold-over fur collars, opaque white tights, and gold-tipped platform Mary Janes.

Aubie is competing in the 2011 Capital One National Mascot of the Year competition, a 12-week head-to-head brawl against 15 other collegiate mascots.
The top eight competitors with the best record at the end of the season will be challenged to a bracket-style, single-elimination competition to determine the winner.
When asked about his thoughts on participating in this year's challenge, Aubie was ecstatic.
"It's going to be great," said a friend of Aubie. "Another chance to show the nation how awesome my Auburn family is."
Now in its 10th year, the competition allows fans to vote for their favorite mascot based on their performances throughout the season.
Each mascot participating in the competition will be awarded $5,000 to help fund their mascot program, with the ultimate winner receiving a $20,000 scholarship toward their mascot program.
The winner will be deemed Mascot of the Year Jan. 2 during the Capital One Bowl.
Aubie has competed in six of the prior competitions, but never reached the pinnacle of the event.
"I want to win, of course," a friend of Aubie said. "Even though I've won the most (Universal Cheerleaders Association) national titles, I've never won the Capital One Mascot Challenge. I really want to bring it home this year."
This year's competition will feature never-before-told stories of each mascot in online videos, available on the Capital One Bowl website, to help fans determine their pick.
Chris O'Neil, director of the digital and public relations campaign for Capital One, explained the difficult selection process.
"Several factors were considered: how Aubie interacts with the fans, his creativity and passion, his signature move, previous recognition and awards, as well as national recognition," O'Neil said.
Fans are encouraged to vote online at CapitalOneBowl.com or on the official Facebook page at www.facebook.com/MascotChallenge.
Regular-season voting began Aug. 29 and continues weekly through Nov. 21.
A friend of Aubie said he is looking forward to competing against a few particular mascots this season.
"I would say the Oregon Duck, but I've already beaten him, so Big Blue from Old Dominion," a friend of Aubie said. "He's last year's champ."
O'Neil said a competition of this scale brings national awareness to Auburn's doorstep for the duration of the competition.
"Capital One has been honoring these unsung heroes who work hard to cheer on their schools and generate fan enthusiasm," O'Neil said. "This competition shines light on them and the University as well."
With the start of a new season, Aubie believes being the returning national champions means higher expectations.
"I've got a target on my back, but that's OK because I've got the Auburn family behind me," a friend of Aubie said. "War Eagle!"

Toyota Tacoma 2004 and Earlier Frame Problem
capricorn_62 Posts: 15
capricorn_62 Posts: 15
cbone14 Posts: 8Nice, I got 12k for my 99. This is my last post. I am tired of hearing people reply about thier paranoia that Toyota is up to something. Toyo makes a great product, but they used an inferior frame and are making it right. Where or who else would pay 12-16k for a 12y/o truck. Thanks Toyo i am enjoying my newer(but still old) 4runner on you dime after driving my 99 for 6 years.
rjc54 Posts: 2I just took my 2002 Tacaoma to the dealer for the rust inspection. The frame needs to be replacedl. The cost is covered by the recall BUT I'm responsible for any parts that break when they are removed. I call Toyota and they refuse to cover any broken parts. Seems a bit odd that I need to pay for anything related to the rusted frame
terceltom Posts: 1,017That's total bulls***, I just had mine replaced two months ago and if they damaged an item they removed, then they replaced it, no charge. That being said, if they discover a worn out part or something they feel should be replaced while they are doing the job and it's not related to the frame rust then it's there obligation to ask you if you want this item replaced at your cost or reinstalled as it was before.
capricorn_62 Posts: 15Just picked up my tacoma from the dealer after having the under coating applied to the frame. Everything went good and it looks great. They told me that it would be covered until 12/2018 for any more rust. I was confused about the time length of coverage and the dealer explained that it starts from 15yrs. from the purchase new date. So I get 7yrs...better than nothing. Can anyone tell me what was the original length of time for the rust corrosion when tacomas were purchased new? I'm guessing 3yr/36,000

nomoretoyo1 Posts: 1
dennisny Posts: 12I knew that I had bad rust on my 1999 Tacoma. I called Toyota and they started a case number for me, I told them what dealer I wanted to go to and Toyota made all the arangements for me to bring it in, as well as giving me a loaner for the three weeks it took to process my buy back check. Perhaps the extended rust program has ended.>>>. IT IS NOT A RECALL!!! Call Toyota again. Hope this helps. Good luck. (any good mechanic should be able to spot frame rust mine was big enough to put all of your fingers through)
terceltom Posts: 1,017Warranty enhancement period couldn't possibly have ended when the trucks are guaranteed 15 years after first put into service. Therefore, yours is a 2002 guaranteed to 2017. Out of many, many post I have read on various threads and blogs you are the first one to ever get hassled by Toyota that I have heard of. Sorry !
capricorn_62 Posts: 15I just purchased my 03 from a private owner's wife who's husband passed away in Jan. of this year. I heard about the rust problems with the frame. So I called Toyota and they said," call a dealer to set up an appt. to have the frame checked". I set up an appt. with Kenny Ross of Pa. They checked the frame for free and the frame checked out for normal rust. So I had to make another appt. for the rust coating and 2 weeks later it's all under coated and I got a free rental for the day. I also have the remainder of the 15yr extended warranty which will take me to 12/2018. I'm still a little confused on that, I would think that the 15yr warranty wouldn't start until the under coating was applied. But it is what it is.....
I also registered on this website as the new owner of this Tacoma https://auth2.toyota.com/owners
So my advise to you is keep after Toyota and maybe check with another dealer. Good Luck -
mkubic Posts: 1I know you said it was your last post. Was your truck listed as an $8,000 value on KKB? I have a 98 valued at 5,240.00 on KBB. Looking at a 2005+ Tacoma and want to see what others were getting for there truck, compared to KKB prices.
If you would not mind sharing your trucks stats and when you turned it in I would appreciate it.
Thanks! -
tazzaro Posts: 2I bought my 2001 Taco 4x4 back in July 07. Took a 12 hour Jerry Springer bus trip to the closest Taco that was for sale, figured it was worth it having a Toyota. Truck was great, no major problems. I recently moved from MN to So Cali and looked under the truck and noticed the back of my frame had MAJOR rust issues where the leaf spring attaches to it. Big holes in the frame and areas missing that were about 1-1/2 feet long.
I took my truck to the dealer the next day, did not feel safe driving it. When their mechanic went to put it on the lift to inspect it he said he couldn't lift the truck without it breaking in half. He then showed me how the frame was already starting to buckle because the top of the bed was almost touching the cab. They took it off the road right there.
One month later, they finally figured out that they were going to replace the frame and gave me a loaner. Then today, 5 days later, I get a call from the dealer who said that Toyota has denied the repair of my truck. They said the offer expired. I mentioned that it was a 15 year warranty extension but the Service Manager said that because I did not bring the truck in to have it sprayed, and Toyota claims to have sent me 5 letters, that the warranty was not good anymore. I called the Toyota 1800 number he gave me and opened a claim.
From a post earlier in this thread, it appears that there was a Oct 31, 2010 deadline to have the 01-04s brought in to have inspected. I missed that date, obviously, but feel Toyota should still live up to their warranty since the rust on my truck had to have taken longer than 9 months.
So upset right now I can't see straight. :mad: What can I do or say to Toyota to get them to make this repair or offer a buyback? -

Not true, just had my 2004 Taco reframed in August 2011, dealer could not have been more accomodating and did a wonderful job at no cost ( $11,000 job) to me. It's like having a new truck. Truck has 160,000 miles on it and I was the second owner. The frame was never inspected or had any rust application whatsoever before I took it in. I had no paperwork or any notifications from Toyota, I just decided to take it in one day after reading about the frame problems. -
capricorn_62 Posts: 15I purchased my 03 on 9-10-11 and had it undercoated on 9-29-11. They gave me no hassle at all. I did hear that the expiration date was determined on the state that you live in. I live in Pa where the salt is terrible on you're vehicle. I would call Toyota 1-800-331-4331 and ask them if this is true. Sorry
tazzaro Posts: 2I just talked to a customer service rep from Toyota who said that I had until March 31, 2011 to have the vehicle inspected to be eligible for the warranty. It didn't matter whether or not the frame rust was so bad that it had been ongoing long before that. She said Toyota is very firm about the date, even refusing to honor the warranty if the date is missed by one day.
I don't know what my options are at this point other than have my insurance company total it out. -
dennisny Posts: 12150% of whatever the KBB says, in excellent condition. I used the KBB app on my iPhone, added in all the extras (like SR5 & power windows), and it was right on %150. I had a 1999 Tacoma, xta cab V6 4X4 Power Cruise Alloy wheels. 54k miles in perfect condition, but the condition is not important. Good Luck. D.
missmechanic Posts: 2Can anyone tell me if they know what the inspection process is for the corrosion on the truck frame. I took my 1998 Toyota truck in for inspection yesterday and the mechanic at dealership did a visual inspection and passed it. They wanted to coat the frame and give me a rental car and I said no I needed to do more research first. I am a level II NDT in the aerospace world and I know a little about corrosion on metal. I went home and called another dealer in the area and the parts manager told me the inspection process should be done with a hammer if there is no visual holes present. The mechanic at the dealership I took my truck to only inspected it visually and said it passed due to there were not any holes in the frame. The entire frame is corroded. I cant believe Toytota is passing these frames that look like this. We have owned every Toyota made and my husband and I purchased this truck new. I want to hear from you and tell me about your experiences.
tcincy Posts: 28I had my '99 Tacoma and my brother had his '98 Tacoma both inspected.
The Service Mgr. of Kerry Toyota, Covington, Ky., stated one of two things must be present to be eligible for buyback:
1. Any hole - even a pin - sized hole, anywhere through the frame;
2. A substantial amount of "surface" rust on the frame.
They said all Tacomas would be given a 15-yr. retroactive warranty on frame, meaning, a '98 would be extended to 2013. So according to that, you have another 2 years to let the frame experience more rust.
I don't know about the coating on top of rust already there. I would take it to another dealer and not say anything about having been to the first one.
Hope this helps. -
capricorn_62 Posts: 15I have to agree with the other post with only one exception, every time you take the truck to a dealer to have any kind of work/inspection it shows up at Toyota with that vin#. You can check this out by going to this site https://auth2.toyota.com/owners and register as the owner with that vin#. I registered on that site after I bought mine and could see everything that was done to my truck from the previous owner. When I took my 03 in for the rust inspection, they checked it out and did the rust/corrosion treatment and now I have it covered for anymore corrosion until 2018. I just purchased this vehicle a month ago from a private out of state owner. I would also have you're husband crawl under the truck and start tapping lightly with a hammer and check it out for him self. Also check this website http://tacoma-upgrade.com Good Luck
terceltom Posts: 1,017This totally weird, I have never heard of any arbitrary date set for reparing this rust problem. In fact your the only one that I heard of that had any problems with Toyota at all either buying back or reframiong their Tacomas. Call them back and tell them that your going to sue their A**es off if your when your out on the road and your wheels fall off.

We've had a rental van the entire time we've been in Los Angeles — because we're in Los Angeles where you need a vehicle to exist — and our sweet Sienna has SiriusXM, which means we've been listening to a lot of 80s on 8. Just last night we heard "Wanted Dead or Alive" by Bon Jovi, which contains the famous line, "I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all."
And really, I feel like TBJ is exactly like that, except for way less than a million faces.
But let's rewind to before the show, where we did something totally bananas for a group of dudes.
That's right. We went to the set of "Grey's Anatomy." Baldwin.
It was very weird because everything is incredibly realistic, only you look up and there is no ceiling or the stairs you're walking on lead to nowhere. This all makes finding a bathroom very confusing, not to mention it is a strange feeling when you see a bunch of doctors who aren't really doctors napping in a fake hospital lobby. It's incredibly bizarre.
However, there's one easy way to know if you're on a television set or in real life — look and see if there's a Calvin Booth jersey, because no real person would have one of those.
That was our totem.
And that wasn't all the Sonics stuff we found in the fake bar we were in.
So not only was the set fake, it was also 2007. Dance to the time warp again.
After we left the studio, we got our fangers in some Langer's.
"Highly recommended." — your Yelp app
Then it was show prep time, which meant figuring out what kind of questions we were going to ask our guests, Joe Mande and Paul Shirley. We settled on asking them questions about jokes, which ended up working out OK. Just ask these guys, who are all clearly thrilled to be there.
Looks like these humans are watching a dubstep performance, which is actually what we opened with.
Just kidding. That's just JD setting up our live sound. Totally gotcha.
Also gotcha about people not enjoying it because they did. Proof.
Look at those smiles. Beautiful.
I think it's safe to say the West Coast portion of our trip has been a success. Portland, Oakland and Los Angeles have been a ton of fun, our guests have been great and our fans have been awesome. (Chicago was too, duh, but I am biased because of knowing everyone there.) What else can you ask for from an international podcast tour?
Tomorrow, we're off to Oklahoma City. Not sure what we're going to do there, but we'll be there. Hope to see you soon.

I just finished a class with Crystal at the Encinitas location. Great class!
I love Club Pilates, Morena Blvd. and my instructors there. I come twice a week every single week and the classes really energize me and I always get a GREAT workout. I would like to especially thank Kaicie and Wendy for their extreme enthusiasm, its VERY motivating and makes it super fun! Also, the Natalie's are both great teachers and I appreciate them! If you want a great workout, join Club Pilates!! I will never quit!
Simply WOWZER! I was so excited finding out they open a pilates studio in Costa Mesa. It was my first time doing Pilates and let me add I've tried all types of workouts got bored and didnt really feel much so i stooped working out for 3 months. After trying my first class I was hooked. Finally a great workout and best of all Brittany is amazing. You can feel every area of your body working. Forget gym, cross fit, lets just say pilates reformer does it all in one. Love it!!!!!!!
I never tried Pilates before. Now I'm in love and look forward going 3x a week. The instructors are awesome and soooo friendly. Don't forget they know what they are doing. Just in the month I have been going my energy increased and I've lost weight. Club Pilates is sooo worth every dime.
First off, love all of the classes and teachers at club pilates, but Caleigh Meyer is the best! her classes are always packed and they are butt kicking! I live walking distance to the bankers hill location and I am devastated she is no longer teaching classes at that location :( please bring her back!!!
I really found something that works for me. Erica Powell is an awesome Pilates instructor. After my first session with her, my triceps and inner thighs burn the next day. That burn got me motivated to come back for more. Hey..it really works!!! The atmosphere at Club Pilates is wonderful..never threatening. Erica gives clear instructions and motivating !!! Thank you and I am excited to see what my body will look like after 30 sessions...THANK YOU and I hope more people will benefit from Pilates like I do !!!
I am new to Pilates and found a groupon for Club Pilates. I have had the best customer service experience EVER! I was treated with kindness and quick responses to emails. Because I have never done Pilates before, I decided to do a private lesson with Elsa and it was awesome! I'm so glad I have added this awesome routine to my life! Thanks Club Pilates!
The San Marcos studio is great! The instructors are very knowledgeable, and focused on giving you a good workout. I love the fact that they incorporate hand weights and other equipment during the class. It's a great low impact workout!
tell us what YOU think
submit your testimonialI was new to Pilates a few months ago and concerned about shoulder and chronic back pain limitations I have. But, all the instructors have been beyond my expectations with their knowledge, enthusiasm and professionalism. They guide you through all the moves and are constantly reminding you about keeping form. I am amazed at how much more flexible and better I feel. Thank you RB instructors Heidi, Stephanie, and Michelle!
CONGRATULATIONS !!!! .... I Love the new Eastlake club Pilates ... All of the instructors are amazing, and not only that but the costumer service is really outstanding, I had trouble with the groupon and literally within 20 minutes they resolved everything for me .... REALLY GREAT OVERALL EXPERIENCE !!!!
As a Pilates instructor myself, I really love coming to Club Pilates to take class! I appreciate that the instructors are so well trained! Especially now, when studios are popping up everywhere, but the instructors are not necessarily trained properly in Pilates. Club Pilates instructors are constantly trying new things and using great pros like bosu, balls, & weights to keep things interesting! Thanks everyone! :-)
Love the new location in Mira Mesa. The instructors are excellent, professional and friendly. The location was easy to find with easy access to parking in the back. I love the new equipment.
I just started going to the new Mira Mesa location and I love it! The atmosphere is friendly and the instructors are very helpful, energetic, and friendly. I have tried a few different classes and each class brings a unique workout that challenges me.
Since I've gone to Club Pilates, I've never thought about going anywhere else! Studios are clean, new equipment, great instructors and the monthly deals keep me coming back ...
This place is GREAT! The instructors are amazing and very professional. They have plenty of equipment - reformers, springboards, exo chairs, rings, balls, weights, etc- all which help to make class dynamic and fun. I appreciate that they have a variety of class types and time available. My favorites are Laura and Arielle's Level 2 class. Laura's class is the most challenging but also the most fun- she is a ball of energy and keeps the class motivated. You will definitely leave her class sweating!
I think my favorite thing about this studio is the friendly atmosphere that I have not found at other Pilates studios. Try this place!

They constantly are updating their studios with new equipment, paint, etc. These 2 studios are super clean and spacious. I really like all of the instructors and the personal attention you receive here. Every time I leave I feel AWESOME!! They keep it fun and lighthearted.
Club Pilates is a really great place to learn about Pilates. I have been to a few other places studios in town and they were not as friendly or as welcoming. I get a great workout at an affordable price to boot! Try this place and I promise you will be hooked.
I am really picky about my Pilates classes and I just love it here. The classes are challenging and the instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and upbeat (but not obnoxiously so).
Best Pilates studio in San Diego hands down!
I wish I could give this place more stars. I tried it for the very first time and loved it!!
The instructors are friendly and the place is clean. The workout was easy to follow, but was intensive, and worked on muscles that haven't used in months.

Awesome studio. Beautiful equipment, great light, and super clean! The instructors know their stuff and keep the workouts fresh and fun.
I joined the Club Pilates studio in Bankers Hill and just love it! The studio is clean, bright, and the equipment is spanking new! The studio offers a wide variety of pilates and pilates based workouts. No need to fret if you've never taken a pilates class, the instructors are knowledgeable and highly trained to match the workout to your level of fitness. I have to give a shout out to my two favorite instructors: Liz and Keely. Their classes continually challenge me. THANK YOU!!!!
Awesome place- awesome instructors!
I took a private lesson before my first time because I knew nothing about Pilates. Very helpful!

This is a great, clean, fun place to take pilates! The instructors are well educated and very attentive. It is an affordable studio...dont base the price of your class to reflect your experience because its WELL worth twice what you pay for!
There are classes available for all levels and the instructors are great at modifying an exercise or making it more challenging to accomodate everyone's needs!
Check it out! You'll be hooked

I've just started taking reformer classes at the Bankers Hill location, and I have only good things to say! Awesome studio, brand new equipment, super attentive instructors, and a very extensive class schedule with evening classes that meet the needs of people stuck in the office late. I plan to continue going here as long as I live in San Diego!
I love this place! I'm addicted to Pilates. The instructors are awesome and the place looks clean and neat. It is so easy to register and schedule your classes. No monthly fees!
Allison is such a Rock Star! Every location is clean and well maintained. I gladly recommended any of the Club Pilates locations!
I have A LOT of great things to say about Club Pilates but I'll summarize:
Best. Studio. Ever. :)
