Don't you just LOVE people's negative comments towards pregnant people? When I was pregnant with DD I always got the whole "Sleep now while you can." comment ALL the time. People, women in particular, used to say so many negative things to scare me and what-not. I really hated it! Where's the female camaraderie here?
I've noticed this time people are saying stuff like that less but I still get it. The one that really annoys me is when I'm having a hard time with DD people will say "Oh, just wait till you have two!". Like, wow! Thanks for that! The worst part is that DH and one of my close girl friends have both said that lately. Wow, that's so not constructive!
Today we were at an Easter egg hunt and some woman made a negative comment about being pregnant in the heat. I replied that I was due in early June so I didn't see it as a big deal. Also, we have air conditioning. LOL. She agreed that wasn't so bad...but seriously, what's with the negativity?
Have you heard any pregnancy related comments lately that just irked you?
I get so large that I often get "about to pop" or "twins" comments. With #3, I got "about to pop" comments when I still had 10 weeks left. Hey thanks for making me feel like a whale!
I mostly get sympathetic looks from people at the grocery store - pushing a cart with a 16 month old in it, a 5 year old and 4 year old chasing each other in circles around the cart, and 7 months pregnant. Once when I was unloading groceries in to the trunk (the kids were already in the car) an old man stopped by and said "boy oh boy, are you ever in for a treat! Childbirth is really really hard! Are you ready for it?"..........
Uh, buddy? This is #4. Back off. Also, have you ever pushed a kid out of your genitals? No, I didn't think so. Don't tell me how hard childbirth is, you presumptuous, arrogant fool!
I only wish I had said that! I think I just smiled and rolled my eyes.
I agree with what Leah said, people just want something to say to pregnant women even if it doesn't end up being what we want to hear/talk about.
I mainly get told I look really small for how far along I am (at least until the last month) but when I gain at least 35 lbs per pregnancy, I don't want to hear it. And I get a lot of comments for how close in age my kids are and what a handful they're going to be...yes I know, I already do have these two so I can imagine but I considered that - thank you stranger. OH and I've been getting a lot of people commenting on how I'll have to sell my car and get something bigger as if I hadn't figured this out on my own.
I just get a "congratulations", then again that's what. Would thing if I saw a pregnant woman in a wheel chair at a hospital too. Lol that's the only time I get out so.....
With dd1 I got a lot of negative comments abt being a single mom and some rude huffy sounds when they looked at my belly then my bare finger. I just ignored it bc I knew I was married lol, just couldn't get the darn ring on after 22 weeks lol.
I had a 'discussion' with a dear family friend just yesterday about how she doesn't like the name we picked out, lol! She spent half of Easter trying to convince me to go with another name.
Because is was her and honestly that is just her personality, I let it go and laugh about it.
No other real negative comments.
I actually did get a lot of 'looks' and some comments because DH and I weren't married when we were pregnant with DS (we married when he was 2 1/2 - my choice)
Some were "ohhhhh" comments, and I knew they weren't sure if this was a happy thing or not
One person said while I was at a friends baby shower "I'm so glad you chose life"
Another (at the same shower, lol) "You are not married?????? but you're having a baby." - that made me laugh and I politely explained that the father and I had been together for almost 4years (at the time) and were not going to rush anything before we have the baby.
Mostly it entertained me

Only 30 Proofs Struck
The situation was quite different for proof gold quarter eagles dated 1879, of which only 30 were reportedly struck. Today they are quite rare, although when found they usually offer pleasing, deep cameo contrast. This near-Gem Cameo PCGS example with the CAC approval displays rich orange-gold surfaces throughout. The strike is sharp, save for a trace of softness on Liberty's lower curls. The frosty devices and mirrored fields produce perceptible and pleasing contrast. A few field hairlines and minor contact marks account for the grade, detracting little from the appearance and none from the rarity. Population: 3 in 64 Cameo, 0 finer (9/12).

With its focus on narrow band imaging, this book is an excellent reference for new as well as experienced practitioners in the field of endoscopy. Narrow band imaging has brought about a revolutionary improvement in diagnostic endoscopy, enabling objective diagnosis and precise detection of lesions. It has enhanced the capability of endoscopy to facilitate qualitative diagnoses for the great benefit of patients who undergo endoscopic examinations. However, a standardized system of classification has not yet been established, and many clinicians and researchers are not yet highly skilled in utilizing the technique or interpreting the images that are produced. This atlas addresses those issues, providing clear, simple, and easy-to-understand descriptions illustrated with generous use of endoscopic images.

Getting there & away
At the time of research, the most straightforward route to Mali was from Ayoûn el-Atroûs to Nioro. You can also cross at Néma, Timbedgha (both connecting with Nara in Mali) and Kiffa (connecting with Nioro in Mali).
From Nouakchott, you can catch bush taxis to Néma and Ayoûn el-Atroûs. From these places you can catch a bush taxi to Niara or Nioro. It's also possible to travel from Sélibaby to Kayes.
If crossing into Mali, have your passport stamped by police at the first town you reach after crossing the border. You must also clear customs, which is done in Néma or Ayoûn el-Atroûs.
The only border crossing between Morocco and Mauritania is north of Nouâdhibou. Crossing this border is straightforward; the road is now entirely tarred to Nouakchott, except for the 3km no-man's-land that separates the two border posts. Coming from Morocco, you can buy the Mauritanian visa at the border (€20). Expect to pay another €20 for various 'taxes' on top of the visa price. Although there are no longer any currency declaration forms, some customs officials still ask for it and, of course, if you can't present it, they will expect a small bribe.
Note that there's no public transport between Morocco and Mauritania.
The main border crossing for Senegal is at Rosso but it's also possible to cross at Diamma (Keur Masséne), west of Rosso. When crossing into Senegal at Rosso, note that immigration is only open on the Mauritanian side from 8am to noon and 3pm to 6pm. The border crossing here is notorious for its hassles.
From Dakar to Nouakchott by public transport usually takes from 11 to 13 hours depending on the wait at the border. Most minibuses and bush taxis leave Dakar before 10am to be sure of arriving in Rosso well before the border closing time (6pm). At Rosso, most travellers without vehicles cross by pirogue (UM200/CFA500, five minutes) as the ferry crosses only four times daily.
Be prepared for some confrontation with customs officials who usually ask for 'exit taxes'.
Nouakchott, Nouâdhibou and Atâr have international airports. Nouakchott's airport handles most traffic.
Mauritania's national carrier, Air Mauritanie, flies to Paris, Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire), Bamako (Mali), Casablanca (Morocco), Cotonou (Benin), Dakar (Senegal), Las Palmas (Canary Islands) and Pointe-Noire (Congo).
Point Afrique (in France 00 33 4 75 97 20 40; www.point-afrique.com) flies between Paris and Marseilles and Atâr from the end of October to the end of April, while Air France has flights between Paris and Nouakchott. Fares from Paris start at US$550.
Air Senegal operates between Dakar and Nouakchott, while Royal Air Maroc has flights between Nouakchott and Casablanca. Tunis Air connects Nouakchott with Tunis (Tunisia), while Air Algérie flies to Algiers. From Casablanca, Tunis or Algiers, there are many connections to Europe and the Middle East.
All airlines flying to/from Nouakchott have an office in the capital.

Article: Complications arising from catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation: temporal trends and predictors.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The reported complication rate of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) varies. Our goal was to assess temporal trends and the effect of both institutional and individual operators' experience on the incidence of complications. All patients undergoing AF ablation at Johns Hopkins Hospital between February 2001 and December 2010 were prospectively enrolled in a database. Major complications were defined as those that were life-threatening, resulted in permanent harm, required intervention, or significantly prolonged hospitalization. Fifty-six major complications occurred in 1190 procedures (4.7%). The majority of complications were vascular (18; 1.5%), followed by pericardial tamponade (13; 1.1%) and cerebrovascular accident (12; 1.1%). No cases of death or atrioesophageal fistula occurred. The overall complication rate decreased from 11.1% in 2002 to 1.6% in 2010 (P <.05). On univariate analysis, demographic and clinical factors associated with the increased risk of complications were CHADS(2) score of ≥2 (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.5; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.4-4.4; P = .002), female gender (HR = 2.0; 95% CI = 1.2-3.5; P = .014), and age (HR = 1.03; 95% CI = 1.0-1.1; P = .042). Gender and CHADS(2) score of ≥2 remained independent predictors of complication on multivariable analysis. The complication rate of catheter ablation of AF decreased with increased institutional experience. Female gender and CHADS(2) score of ≥2 are significant independent risk factors for complications and should be considered when referring patients for AF ablation.Heart rhythm: the official journal of the Heart Rhythm Society 07/2011; 8(12):1869-74. · 4.56 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Catheter ablation is a widely accepted treatment for drug refractory atrial fibrillation (AF). The purpose of our study was to examine secular trends in the demographic profile of patients undergoing AF ablation. Data for 792 patients who underwent catheter ablation for AF at Johns Hopkins Hospital between years 2001 and 2009 were systematically reviewed. There has been a steady increase in total number of procedures and repeat procedures. The majority of patients undergoing AF ablation at our institution are men (76.6%). Females accounted for 36.0% of patients in 2001 versus 19.6% in 2009. A total of 93.3% of patients undergoing AF ablation were Caucasian. The mean age of patients has increased over time (52 years in 2001 to 60 years in 2009, P = 0.015) and the number of antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) used prior to first ablation has decreased (2.3 to 1.2, P = 0.009). In addition, the mean duration of AF prior to first referral has decreased (7.8 years in 2001 vs 4.2 years in 2009). There is a significant gender and racial disparity in patients undergoing AF ablation favoring Caucasian men that warrants further investigation. We also observed a significant increase in age of patients, decrease in number of AADs, and increase in number of repeat procedures. These results are important when interpreting outcomes of AF ablation and designing future trials.Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology 03/2011; 22(9):994-8. · 3.48 Impact Factor

im looking to do a batch using 100% RO water. no adding of salts or minerals. will the beer be fine with no side effects or off flavors? my tap water is ok, but im suspecting my ph is too high during mash causing some tannin issues. should i mix in some tap water with the RO for mashing? what about sparge? if so, what percentages would you recommend?
I typically blend my carbon filtered tap water with RO water. Porters, stouts, malty darker ales get 60~70% tap to 40~30% RO. Lighter beers, IPA's, or delicate beers get much higher percentages of RO water. I have done some 100% RO beers but in those cases I did add something to the water. In one case all I added was some acid blend to balance PH.
Will ride for beer!
I've been following ajdelange's water primer and use RO exclusively as my base (both mashing and sparging) since my water is extraordinarily hard. Check out the link, he suggests a few salt additions based on the beer you're brewing.http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f128/bre...primer-198460/ You'll read a lot of posts where the brewer will suggest that you don't have enough salts/minerals for the mash and fermentation; however this, seemingly, is not wholly accurate. I seem to recall some experiments (not by ajdelange) done by Braukaiser, or somebody, doing experiments with this.
if ur going Extract batch, ur fine using all RO water because the minerals the yeasties need are already in the extract. Otherwise RO with all grain you will run into problems because of the lack of those minerals.http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f36/reve...brewing-29333/ Looks likethis guy goes 50/50
I use RO H2O with all grain and no problems to my liking. To each their own.
Declaring a brew undrinkable (assuming no infection) before it's even bottled is like slicing into a half-baked (raw) turkey 2 hours before Thanksgiving dinner and commenting "this is crap". Let's all go out for dinner. It's not done, till it's done. Brewing requires patience, patience and more patience.
You're fine with all RO water in general. If you really want to ensure a good fermentation, follow the primer and add 5 grams (one teaspoon) of calcium chloride to the water.
what are thoughts on using all RO water and some wyeast yeast nutrient for some mineral content?
im thinking maybe i should try a 50/50 blend of tap and RO, both strike and sparge. this way i can hopefully keep my PH in check + have enough minerals for the yeast and healthy fermentation. thoughts?

While the trafficking of women for prostitution has been the subject of numerous studies, Prostitution and Human Trafficking is the first book to focus on demand as a key factor in the equation. In order to do this, the editors adopted a double approach: on the one hand, a "virtual ethnography" was developed that focused on the analysis of specialized forums on the web and that used an anonymous internet questionnaire as interview method. On the other, fieldwork allowed national research teams to collect interviews and data from likely clients of trafficked prostitutes, prostitutes themselves, from police officers involved and from national experts.
Who is the client of trafficked prostitution? What fuels the demand for trafficked prostitution as opposed to other forms? Which are the most effective policies for what type of prostitution? The research in this book aims to answer these questions with an innovative approach. The editors have explored the hidden world of human trafficking for prostitution and profiled its clients. In doing so, they have refuted some common stereotypes about clients while inspiring the elaboration of balanced guidelines for managing prostitution, protecting the victims and thus tackling its undesired trafficking component.
Prostitution and Human Trafficking is highly recommended for researchers in the fields of criminology, sociology and law as well as for the law enforcement and legal communities. The book is also recommended for organizations and policymakers involved in fighting organized crime in general and human trafficking in particular.

A bone for the conservatives.
A great week of comics. Very funny stuff.
I hope DT Pi is out there and well. Give us a thumbs up, Dylan.
"Fresh" evidence?
While I personally don't believe the "11/9 was an inside job" hypothesis, several of my online contacts, highly qualified engineers among them, have persuasive arguments – including mathematical models – which do make one wonder.
Of course, it doesn't matter a damn whether it was or wasn't an inside job, the Bushies used it as a pretext to begin their planned programme of conquest. -
…the tongues of some politicians would snap off if they tried to speak the truth.
This is definitely among Trudeau's best work.
I'm so disappointed, they never even touched on whether Lady Bird killed JFK!
My favorite theory is the faster than girders painted with nitrate so it must have been "advanced" tesla energy beams one
I love this series! If Rupert Murdock hasn't jumped on this idea by now, I'm sure he will within a month or so…
Also, I wonder if there is an "Official myFacts.com" Tinfoil hat out there somewhere? -
Seriously, I could not do that job without rolling my eyes at the request for facts that prove a point and the next call wanting facts to disprove the same point.
Conspiracy theorists. Phffffffft.
I was thinking how the Israelis gave Eichmann a trial and we assassinated Bin Ladin & dumped his body at sea. What is wrong with this picture?
Hopefully, myFacts will be occasionally revisited, as needed. The smug, amoral Austin is a well realized character.
it's true. I saw Bin Laden just last week—
peeking over the fence at the grassy knoll -
Interesting, the automatic association between MyFACTS and conspiracy theorists. Wouldn't they get at least some calls from your average opinionated blowhard who doesn't have a paranoid drum to beat? There are a lot of

Re:Not Quite. (253 comments)
in human evolution survival of the fittest hardly applies, as we aren't the fittest animal out there we simply outthink our enemies which defies survival of the fittest... as the stronger lose when in equal numbers, against a intellectual superior.

The "Cosmogonic" Form of Genesis 1
In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
I became such an expert in young-earth creationist theology and science that it turned into a wrecking ball for my faith.
The story of the Genesis Rock reminds us of how biblical and scientific accounts, despite their different purviews and purposes, remain inexorably linked in our understanding of origins.
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
The words we use to talk about the Bible and science often predispose us towards unnecessary conflicts.
The 1930 showdown between evolutionist Schmucker and creationist Rimmer generated a lot of heat but shed very little light on the real issues behind the debate.
Recent high-school graduate Jacob shares about his journey from young-earth creationism to evolutionary creationism, and how his faith was challenged and strengthened along the way.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
So what is BioLogos? Well it all began with a scientist and a book.
The new Gallup survey shows in broad strokes the challenge we face. But more nuanced surveys find that only 8% of Americans are convinced creationists whose beliefs are dear to them, and only 4% are convinced atheistic evolutionists whose beliefs are dear to them. The vast majority of Americans are not sure of their position and are open to a conversation.
Because BioLogos accepts the scientific evidence for the age of the earth and common ancestry, Ham believes we are undermining the Bible and denying its authority. However, the authority of the Bible is key for all that we do at BioLogos.
Watch to see whether the debate encourages the opinion that science and Christianity are at war. We don't think you have to choose sides.
Last week Ken Ham addressed BioLogos specifically in a blog post, in response to Daniel Hamlin's testimony told in our blog on October 14th.
These excerpts from Origins: Christian Perspectives on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design, written by BioLogos president Deborah Haarsma and her husband Loren Haarsma, offer a sampling of the book's many topics, from exploring our disagreements and agreements on origins as Christians to explaining scientific processes to looking at how we read Genesis.
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.
(Needs a summary)
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.

Kramer Electronics Introduces Two HDMI Distribution Amplifiers for Large Networks
Kramer Electronics is pleased to be showing the VM-28HDMI 2 input 1:8 HDMI distribution amplifier and the VM-216HDMI 2 input 1:16 HDMI distribution amplifier at CEDIA in booth #611.
The VM-28HDMI and VM-216HDMI were originally designed directly for a customer requirement. Kramer was approached with the need to distribute high quality HDMI signals in a high end consumer retail application. In a consumer retail environment where the goal is to sell today's high quality and high resolution flat panel and rear projection televisions, putting the best possible image on each unit to show off its maximum capabilities is an essential requirement. The best medium to place a high definition image on a modern television is via HDMI. The VM-28HDMI allows the distribution of one of two HDMI input sources to 8 destinations and the VM-216HDMI allows distribution of one of two HDMI input sources to 16 destinations.
The VM-28HDMI and VM-216HDMI are both HDCP compliant and support up to 1.65Gbps bandwidth to ensure compatibility with all HDTV standards including 1080p/60 signals. Both models also feature enhanced EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) operation. Each unit can read a separate EDID in non-volatile memory or provide the default EDID of 720p if one is not stored. This allows a convenient and reliable connection to the source.
The VM-28HDMI and VM-216HDMI are housed in rugged 19" 1U standard rack mount enclosures and include 100-264 VAC universal switching power supplies
The VM-28HDMI and VM-216HDMI carry list prices of $995 and $1495 respectively and are currently in stock and available from Kramer Electronics sales offices worldwide.

How to Not Hatewatch the Emmys This Year
Because, despite there being many terrible shows, cheap shocks, hacky could-it-beeeee-any-more-sarcastic jokes, thoughtful actors buffed to soft-edged and vaguely inhuman unrecognizability, all of this is a dream for somebody. Somebody looked back at this show or episode as their best work, an ambition realized, some piece of heavenly possibility made real on earth.
This is their apotheosis, their moment, and even if we don't think it measures up compared to the richness of the Western canon—or, I dunno, that first season of Arrested Development—tonight we celebrate the best that thousands of people could do. It's about the hardest, sincerest work of crewman, costume designers, stylists, lighting and rigging guys, writers, actors, directors—even vipers in suits who really do think they're making things better when they cut out that joke that relies on a too-smart sex pun about Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
So pause, if you will, and offer a little respect. A moment of reflection that these are, indeed people too.
Good. Because now we're going to make fun of stuff. Because we can't help it.

Country music superstar/actress Reba ("Reba," "Tremors") returns to television as a wife and mother whose world is turned upside-down when she discovers that her country music legend husband has a cheatin' heart.
On her way to becoming a country star herself, Reba put her career on hold to raise a family. Husband Bobby always emphasized family values in his music, but with the very public discovery of his numerous affairs, Reba decides to not stand by her man. Now, with a divorce pending, Reba packs up her sharp-tongued southern mother, Lillie Mae (Lily Tomlin, "Laugh-In," "Damages," "Desperate Housewives," "West Wing," "Nine to Five," "Nashville"), and her two kids and U-Hauls it straight to sunny California to begin a new chapter in life. Leaving Nashville in the rear view mirror, they start over at their Malibu residence -- the last remaining asset they have, and Bobby's former secret love nest.
Once the most popular boy in his Nashville high school, Reba's teenaged son, Cash, finds himself feeling positively average compared to the good looking, affluent Malibu boys -- a fate worse than death! On the other hand, Reba's teen daughter, June (Juliette Angelo, "New Year's Eve"), never really fit in with her peers. In Malibu she blends in perfectly and finds a new best friend in Sage, an openly gay neighborhood boy who embraces his sexuality. Tough-as-nails mom Lillie Mae discovers the serenity of Southern California living and fully embraces her new laid-back, relaxed lifestyle. But Reba learns that relocating to Malibu is going to be quite a challenge to her traditional southern values. The West Coast seems like the polar opposite of Music City, and she feels like an outsider. Her gregarious and very liberal new neighbor and Sage's stepmother, Kim (Sara Rue, "Less Than Perfect"), doesn't have many friends and immediately attaches herself to Reba, enthusiastically offering to mentor her in becoming a little less country a bit more California cool.
When Reba discovers that trying to revive her career is going to be an uphill battle, she befriends Geoffrey (Jai Rodriguez, "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy"), the assistant to her new music agent. With his help and unorthodox methods, she might yet have a chance to become a chart topper. Still, in the end it's family that matters most to Reba, as each member of hers learns to view this new Malibu lifestyle as a chance to begin anew.
"Malibu Country" stars Reba as Reba, Lily Tomlin as Lillie Mae, Sara Rue as Kim, Justin Prentice as Cash, Juliette Angelo as June and Jai Rodriguez as Geoffrey.

George H. Carlyle one of Westminster's successful dairymen, was born in Woodford County, Kentucky, March 23, 1827. His father moved to Saline County, Missouri, in 1855, and followed farming there until his death twelve years ago. He had nine children. For several years George (or Henry, as he was generally known) was connected with the stage line under Ben. Holiday, from the Missouri river to Fort Kearney and Salt Lake City. After this he followed farming and the dairy business at Independence, Missouri, until he came to California in 1887. Buying eighty acres of land in the Westminster colony, he is now raising fruits, fine Jersey cattle, and also carrying on the dairy business. Politically Mr. Carlyle is a Democrat, and religiously he is a member of the Christian Church, of which for several years he has been an elder, at Santa Ana.
In 1868 he married Arnie Fackler, of Missouri, and a daughter of Dr. J. M. Fackler, of Kansas City. Their children are: Virgie, John, Frankie, Lutie and George Fackler.

Although eggs are not listed on our website we welcome new regular customers. We produce about 10 dz per week currently but will increase to 70 dz this fall. We use several heritage breeds of chickens as well as some modern crosses.
We offer about 44 daylily cultivars currently and will increase as needed. These are in very limited supply.
Our Kiko meat goats are primarily bred to produced registered breeding stock for other farms. Bucklings or doelings that do not meet our standards as breeders will be sold each summer for food. They are browse and forage raised. The guide illustrates, with color photos, every cut I make on a deer start to finish including skinning, quartering, and butchering. It was intended for family and friends but they convinced me to offer it to the public.

Happy Hoofers Service trundles history buffs and nostalgia lovers through Virginia City on a half-hour horse-drawn carriage tour of the famed silver and gold mining town. Cart along your three roommates or the rest of your barbershop quartet as you clip-clop through the Victorian-era burg renowned for its mansions, opera house, and red-light district identifiable by the crimson-hued sun perched directly in the middle of the street.
To Action Whitewater Adventures' guides, setting is everything. During their full-day excursions, guides and groups mounted in rafts battle Class III and IV rapids just to make their way to a gourmet deli lunch set against the backdrop of the lush Lotus River Valley. Of course, they might argue the fun part is getting there.
They lead excursions down both the South and Middle Forks of the American River, some of the most popular rafting waters in the nation. On the South Fork, they conduct the "Chili Bar" run, a trip that covers up to 21 miles favored for its rough-and-tumble class III rapids and stellar countryside. The Middle Fork provides even rougher-and-tumbler Class IV rapids, the 18-mile journey punctuated by clear-flowing stretches populated by trout and adorable baby Poseidons.
Breezes swirl down a corridor made by trees standing up to 100 feet and perched atop levees, which form the banks of the 200-year-old Bear River. Above rustling branches and the calls of nearby eagles, the hum of an engine cuts through the tranquil air. Dave Jewell of Blue Sky Powered Paragliding takes thrill-seekers—some as old as 80 years of age—soaring up to 500 feet above rolling, farm-dappled country and between Bear River's banks on propeller-powered parachutes. Though currently surveying Californian skies, Dave has led flights and organized clubs in Japan, Nigeria, Mexico, Germany, and France, and he continues to draw on knowledge of flight mechanics from extensive Air Force parachute training. Today, Dave takes off from 24 acres of campground, where a paragliding club meets occasionally to heckle poorly shaped clouds.
A sweeping bonfire pit, rustic picnic tables, and grassy swathes for RVs welcome campers waiting their turn to fly. Dave also mans a parachute and equipment shop where he conducts repairs and reanimates the corpses of dead kites. Dave insists that he never tires of his sport, as the weather and surrounding terrain are always changing, making his higher-altitude experiences "terrifying without being terrifying." With a small wingspan, the motorized parachutes can also approach wildlife more closely than other aircraft; on one flight Dave found himself flanked by two bald eagles, beating their powerful wings just 20 feet away.
Velocab's emission-free vehicles—extended-frame bicycles encased in a car-style body—transport up to three riders or hooky-playing scooters for all manner of occasion. In addition to performing utilitarian tasks, such as giving cab rides or delivering goods, drivers can also be commissioned for services such as history tours, pub crawls, and shuttles to and from baseball games.
Grand Tahoe Charters' small-group tours lead passengers on intimate sightseeing ventures with the jagged mountains peeking on in the distance and Lake Tahoe's calm blue waters as the setting. On each trip, the crew captains the 36-foot mahogany Wild Goose II, which harkens back to the early 20th century when wooden boats were the main vessels on the scenic lake. The ship carries up to 12 passengers at a time, assuring that tours don't become overcrowded or that a baseball game could break out. While sailing, deck seating puts guest in the breeze under the sun or stars, or inside in the heated cabin. With many available cruises, such as the West Shore Dinner Cruise and the Sunset Cocktail Cruise along the Incline shoreline, Grand Tahoe Charters aims to entertain guests while showing them the many facets of Tahoe's natural splendor.
Adrift Tahoe transforms Lake Tahoe into one giant playground, all the way from its sandy shores out into its glistening waters. In the morning?with the sun rising over the Sierra Nevada mountains?standup-paddleboard instructors lead groups out on tours of the lake, floating atop serene waters and along tree-lined banks. Similar journeys happen midday, at sunset, and at night, when the stars guide paddlers across the water and the moon looks on enviously, wishing it had water of its own.
Other members of Adrift Tahoe's team lead paddleboard fitness, while more still stay on the shore to teach yoga. Beyond these guided activities, Adrift Tahoe sells and rents aquatic gear, including paddleboards, kayaks, and canoes.
