*Rubs hands together* Wow, this was an interesting spout and I see a lot of varied points on both sides.
Walkiria- I would think, given her condition and experiences, that she would learn and live by this phrase, "Power Corrupts." It is very easy to go over the line between good and evil if one person has enough power to shape what he/she could with a flick of her wrist. Olga is no exception to having make bad decisions and she was right to give up the power when she had a chance. Given the reverse situation, I believe that Walkiria would do the same thing. Also, as terms with the government it is very easy for government, especially Russia, to hide true meanings and give simple sentences just to complete their own ends. Again, had Walkiria had the tables turned on her and she was in the same picture with the US Military she would do anything and everything to get back into neutral territory at least and to be in good favors with the Military.
Soviet Superwoman- On her side she kind of chewed this dish without asking how they made the meal. Maia was right to Olga being too quick to accept what the Soviets were offering without at least researching what this satellite is or what the Russian's long term plan was. I personally see this whole Satellite thing as a trap because of my given reasons: a) Nikola never stated about having discussed this with other governments to gain their support and help. b) Nikola could never give any proof that he could back up what he was saying about the benefits (at least what I read), so it seems very easy to turn the tables and reveal the pistol underneath to strong arm Olga. c) Out of the number of people to ask including the Guardians and the Governments he picked the one person who accidently started something with the Russians. Call me crazy but it seems all too convenient that Nikola came like he did with the offer in hand.
Sorry, but this sounded like a side weighing story so I would like to insert my points. Very good story overall and I can't wait to see what happens next!
That's right, Maia! Show her who wears the pants in this relationship… I say as I realize that Maia is even further from wearing pants than Olga is… well, you know what I mean.
A nice bit of drama is on display here, and while I, from atop my conservative white male Olympus, am looking down my nose upon it all, your writing does make me invested in this international-yet-domestic conflict.
Maia might regret saying those things to Olga but she might be right about Nikola. I don't think the satellite is a weapon per se but with maias ion energy seeming ;different; it might be a coincidence.
Very good chapter My Dear

Tougaloo's 59-51 victory ends Nuggets' many streaks January 23, 2012 Box score TOUGALOO, Miss. — Victoria Jones had 13 points and 19 rebounds Monday to lead Tougaloo in a 59-51 Gulf Coast Athletic Conference women's basketball victory against NAIA No. 15 Xavier University of Louisiana. The Lady Bulldogs (10-11 overall, 4-2 GCAC) snapped the nine-game win streak of the Gold Nuggets (16-6, 6-1) and beat Xavier for the first time in 14 tries. The most recent Tougaloo victory had been in 2005. Also snapped was Xavier's 35-game win streak against GCAC opponents, 30 in the regular season. Jones, who recorded her fifth career double-double against Xavier, was one of four Lady Bulldogs in double figures. Kierra Addison scored 11 points, and Brittany Patterson and Tangela Rich had 10 apiece. SiMon Franklin scored 16 points for Xavier — her fifth consecutive game in double figures — and Brandi Young scored 10. Tougaloo led 27-21 at halftime. Both teams made less than a third of their field-goal attempts — Xavier shot 30 percent, Tougaloo 31.5 — but the Lady Bulldogs dominated at the line, making 21-of-30 free throws to the Nuggets' 9-of-15. Tougaloo outrebounded Xavier 42-33. In the Gold Nuggets' previous seven games they outrebounded each opponent by 10 or more. It was the third notable home victory of the season for Tougaloo, which beat NAIA No. 18 Belhaven and NCAA Division I Jackson State in December. Xavier's loss and Dillard's 72-70 home victory against Talladega knocked the Nuggets out of first place. Dillard, 6-0 in the GCAC, will visit Xavier at 5 p.m. Saturday in the opening game of the Crosstown Classic doubleheader at The Barn.
The Xavier Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets compete in Division I of the NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) as a member of the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference (GCAC). Xavier fields men's teams in basketball, cross country and tennis and women's teams in basketball, cross country, tennis and volleyball.

According to the witnesses, Cinque told Henry, a freelance journalist from New York, to stop taking photos of voters. Supervisor of Elections Theresa LePore had recently ordered that voters were to be protected from photographers as they waited in line. When Cinque ordered Henry to stop, the journalist fled. The witnesses say Henry tried to make a quick left turn to lose Cinque and as he did, he slipped. Henry wasn't tackled, recalls retired Marine Lt. Col. Frederick Peterson from Virginia. "Police officers in my estimation acted with restraint and entirely properly," says Peterson, a frequent commentator on Fox News.
Henry says the discussion is beside the point. "It's hard to disentangle the fall from the fact that he was pursuing me," Henry said from his office in Sag Harbor, New York. "What I know is that when he landed on me, he started pummeling me."
The only witness to confirm that Henry was punched is Henry's friend George Wilson, a retired minister. From his home in East Hampton, New York, Wilson says he watched horrified as his friend was assaulted. "There were several punches from the policeman to him," Wilson says.
The author of the Post's story, former Pulitzer finalist Jane Daugherty, did not return a phone call for comment.
Henry, meanwhile, has vowed to fight the disorderly conduct charge. He recently turned down an offer from prosecutors, who agreed to drop the charges if Henry agreed not to sue for wrongful arrest.
Cinque blames the Post. He spoke recently at the Palm Beach County Courthouse, where he works in security. "The Post hates cops," Cinque said. "Everybody knows that."
Strong-arming Salvo
Hollywood's Police Officer of the Year can't seem to stay out of trouble. Last month, 27-year-old Boca Raton businessman Michael Kleopa sued 43-year-old Officer Pete Salvo and the city of Hollywood, alleging the lawman roughed him up, then falsely arrested him.
It's the third lawsuit against the high-profile Salvo. The city settled a previous brutality case involving Salvo, who won the city's top cop honor last year after a successful investigation of a marijuana ring. The cost to Hollywood? $42,500. A wrongful death lawsuit is currently pending in federal court; it involves 31-year-old Vincent Del'Ostia, who died following an altercation with Salvo and other officers.
In the most recent instance, Kleopa alleges that on the evening of April 27, 2002, a valet parked his silver Mercedes in a handicapped spot at Giorgio's Grill on Hollywood Beach. Salvo noticed the illegal parking job. As the officer was writing a ticket, Kleopa confronted him. Salvo allegedly roughed him up a little, then arrested him for disorderly conduct. Kleopa said loudly, according to Salvo's report: "My Jewish lawyer will take care of everything."
And he did. Dan W. Moses had the charge dismissed in August 2002. Two weeks later, Kleopa returned to Giorgio's. "As he walked in the door," Moses tells the 'Pipe, "Salvo grabbed him and said, 'Now I got you, motherfucker!' " Salvo, a squat, barrel-chested man with an unswervable sense of entitlement, charged the man with trespassing -- a crime the Broward State Attorney's Office refused to prosecute.
Add this to Salvo's police résumé, which already includes two dead bodies, a sexual battery allegation, and a host of Internal Affairs complaints.
Speaking of the Hollywood cops, there's also the sad story of Donald Baker. A 52-year-old Hollywood man who spent five years in prison on a robbery and assault charge, Baker hasn't had much luck with the justice system. On December 28, 2004, Judge Michael Gates sentenced Baker to another five years in prison after he was convicted on potentially fabricated evidence.
In April 2004, a jury convicted Baker of battery on a law enforcement officer after Hollywood police provided a grainy black-and-white surveillance tape that seemed to show the man strike and push to the ground Officer Francis Hoeflinger. Then video expert David Bawarsky found that some versions of the tape appeared to show police officers beating Baker without provocation.
But this evidence became available only after Baker's conviction, meaning that his hopes for freedom now rest in the appeals process. Baker's mother, Dolores McNamara, recently sent an e-mail to Hollywood city officials, asking for greater scrutiny of the police department. "This has to be the case to put an end to the brutality," McNamara wrote.
But Tailpipe is still scratching his rusty noggin, wondering why, if there's clear evidence that Baker was convicted on trumped-up charges, he has to sit in jail.
-As told to Edmund Newton

El Pobre Luis, Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires
Tel: 54 11 4780 5847
Concierge.com's insider take:
See that rotund guy in the red shirt manning the parrilla? That's him. That's Pobre Luis (Poor Lou), the inspired Uruguayan who has fed asado (traditional grilled meats) to soccer stars like Diego Maradona, Pelé, and judging by the signed jerseys covering the walls of this lively Belgrano institution, just about every halfback, fullback, and keeper on the planet. (The two-level corner establishment is within kicking distance of Monumental Stadium, home of the River Plate soccer club.) There are many excellent neighborhood parrillas around Buenos Aires, but Luis has got something the others don't: the Uruguayan specialty known as pamplonas, hefty loglike rolls of charred beef, pork, or chicken stuffed with cheese, pimientos (peppers), and jamón (ham). These savory cholesterol bombs are not elegant, but this is an unpretentious place, brimming with fun and satisfied customers.
Open Mondays through Saturdays 8 pm to 2 am.

Bad News is a Bummer
Bad news is a bummer. It matters little if the news is life changing or a disappointing outcome; it can easily be a shock or a setback. Last week, my day started out as usual until I got a phone call from a relative with some pretty disturbing news that changed my whole outlook. When things like that happen, do you resort to hand wringing, crying, questioning "why", what if", and "if only"? I must admit, for a short while I was stuck in worry mode. After taking some really deep breaths to get centered, I focused on what I could realistically do about the situation. This is what I came up with to bounce back from worry: Be Realistic - Is there anything you can do to realistically change the situation? If you can change the … [Read more...]
Your life is a Sum Total of Your Responses to the Choices You Have Made
Years ago, when I first heard the quote "our lives are the sum total of the choices we have made", by Dr. Wayne Dyer, I quickly discounted it just as a lot of people do. Because I was so wrapped up in my "stories" about what should have happened that I didn't see how I could possibly have been remotely responsible for how the choices I made were reflected in my life. As I gave the quote more thought, I came to realize it had more meaning for me when I interpreted it this way - Your life is a sum total of your responses to the choices you have made. Maybe I'm taking too much liberty with Dr. Dyer's quote but that's a choice I get to make. If you look at the quote as how the choices you made are connected to distressing thoughts, you … [Read more...]
Pretty is as Pretty Does
I often use to hear my grandmother say, "pretty is as pretty does" whenever someone complimented one of her grandchildren on their looks. It was one of those sayings that I heard often, but never really giving much thought to what it meant until recently. Recently, as I waited in a line [practicing patience], I overheard a well dressed, attractive young woman say to someone in a rather nasty tone, "what the *%&*^ are you looking at?" And, immediately I was transported back to my childhood hearing my grandmother's voice, "pretty is as pretty does". No matter how well dressed, articulate or well connected you are if you are not pretty on the inside, you present your ugly side to the world – just like the woman I overheard … [Read more...]

According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, two-thirds of office visits to family doctors are for stress-related symptoms such as fatigue, body aches, obesity and heart palpitations. These are stressful times for all of us and coupled with our day-to-day stressors, we can easily become affected by stressful symptoms. When you have a gazillion things on your to-do-list, you're overwhelmed by the demands on your time, and can't take a minute just for yourself, your body will respond to these stressors as though you are … [Read more...]

10 Quick and Easy Tips to Reduce Daily Stress
In today's media frenzy, you are constantly bombarded with news of tragedy, war, economic upheaval, and more and doom and gloom headlines. All this just makes you want to scream.

Relax, Rejuvenate and Rest
Talk about an "aha" moment...I have had several the past couple of weeks as I lay coughing, sneezing and feeling like walked on dirt from some all-encompassing "bug". There's nothing quite as enlightening as not being able to do anything but lie still and take time for reflection. How often have I said, "take time for yourself", "take care of yourself first", etc. (you've heard it from me many times). Yet, there I was completely depleted mainly because I neglected to take care of the most important person - me. We often ignore all the warning signs - exhaustion, disturbed sleep patterns, lack of energy - while feeling like we're on a fast moving treadmill at top speed. Don't ignore these warning signs. This is exactly the time to … [Read more...]
It's True: You Can Get Rid of the Clutter Monster
Do you know that a quarter of homeowners with two-car garages use them exclusively for storage and park in the driveway? How do we become such hostages to the jumble of odds and ends that once gave us pleasure and fond memories and now have outlived its usefulness? This week, I finally took on the gigantic task of clearing the clutter from my basement storage area and the garage! Whew! How many times had I said, "we really need to clear out some stuff of this stuff." It was merely a passing comment…didn't happen! So to solve the problem, I tried my best to ignore the growing mound of useless odds and ends that had taken over my space. I finally could tolerate it no longer. So amongst the empty soda cans, the unused boxes of … [Read more...]

20 September 2007
Dr Elena Turitsyna from the School of Engineering & Applied Science has recently been awarded a prestigious research fellowship from The Royal Society.
The Dorothy Hodgkin Fellowship offers the first step to an independent research career for excellent scientists and engineers. The recipients of this highly esteemed award are usually women scientists who have completed their PhD and are at an early stage of their career. It recognises those who require career flexibility, for example for parental/caring responsibilities.
Having joined the Photonics Research Group at Aston in 2000 as a Research Assistant, Elena completed her PhD programme in June this year. She originally started her PhD after being encouraged by the University's Professor Ian Bennion, who was always highly supportive of her work.
Elena returned to research after a 17 year break since graduation. With no opportunity to partake in full time research work, she tried to dedicate as much time as possible to part-time research, whilst bringing up four children with her husband. Her dedication and excellence in securing this Fellowship was rewarded over numerous high-calibre competitors.
The fellowship covers salary costs and research expenses over a period of four years, as well as supporting travel costs for conferences. During the award period, recipients are also encouraged to collaborate internationally and make visits abroad.
'You can imagine how overwhelmed I was after receiving this award. I just could not stop smiling. I am very happy and extremely grateful to everyone from the University who shared my joy and wished me further success in my research,' said Elena.
'I am very proud to be working at the Photonics Research Group at Aston University,' she continued.
Dr Turitsyna puts her enthusiasm to continue her research down to the encouraging environment in Photonics at Aston and a number of women in the Research Group , particularly Dr Kate Sugden, Dr Sonia Boscolo, and Professor Lin Zhang. Elena has always regarded them as 'true women-scientists', and her pride at being a member of this group will no doubt spur her on to carry on the success of the University and the Photonics Research Group in the future.

21c Takes on Old City Hall in Indianapolis for Its Next Museum Hotel
Is it us or are those the famous 21c red penguins on the roof of the lobby?
More exciting news for fans of 21c Museum Hotels, but you�ll have to hang in there until late 2017/early 2018. The quirky art/design hotel chain is coming to downtown Indianapolis, and the project involves one of the city�s prized possessions, the Old City Hall.

21c Museum Hotels Will Shake Up The Durham Hotel Scene Next Year
21c Museum Hotels will have some good company when their Nashville property opens as several hot brands like Ace, Virgin and Thompson are expected to populate the Music City. But when it comes to the hotel scene of Durham, North Carolina, we think the forthcoming 21c Museum Hotel in downtown will have the artsy boutique hotel game on lock.
Designed by Deborah Berke Partners, the 125-room hotel will have all the hallmarks of a 21c Museum hotel. That means it's part boutique hotel and part contemporary art museum, with a chef-driven restaurant thrown in too.
The art museum will be open and free to all visitors, not just hotel guests and will feature "curated exhibitions, interactive site specific installations and a full roster of cultural programming." Elsewhere at the hotel will be a lounge, a fitness center and a spa. As for the signature 21c Museum penguin, the Durham penguin will be rocking a bright fuchsia color.

Music to Our Ears: An Ace and an Edition May Be Coming to Nashville
Exciting times are ahead for Nashville�s hotel scene. In particular, the city's boutique otel scene is really coming up. Already, there's a Virgin, Thompson and Kimpton in the works, but now we've learned there's an Ace and an Edition coming as well.
How do we know this? The Nashville Convention & Visitors Corporation has released a "cheat sheet" of new Downtown/Midtown hotels in the works, most of them opening in the city's coolest neighborhoods. But don�t pack your bags yet, as many of these hotels are years from completion, with some still under speculation. And we all know that anything can happen in hotel development, not the least of which is a flag change.
Still, it's hard for us not to want to grab a partner and do-so-do with excitement. Here's what has us skipping in our cowboy boots this morning:

21c Museum Hotels Will Bring Its Artsy Style To the Music City
It's not just high-flying Virgins that are headed to Nashville, but museum lovers too.
According to Tennessean, a landmark building in Downtown Nashville has been sold at auction to 21c Museum Hotels. It must have been meant to be, as it was reportedly the 21st bid (of $6.8 million) that won the luxury boutique hotel and restaurant group its new Nashville digs.
This will be the 5th hotel following Louisville, Cincinnati, Bentonville and Durham (due to open in early 2015.) The hotel group also plans to expand into Lexington; in an historic bank designed by McKim Mead and White; Oklahoma City, in a former Ford Model T plant, and Kansas City; in a redevelopment of the Savoy Hotel and Grill. Each of these future hotels sound so great we had to mention them.
The Nashville property, located at 222 Third Avenue North, dates to the 1890s and is a registered national landmark. It was most recently used as office space and will need some work to convert it to a luxury boutique hotel. But taking on an historic building and bringing out its character are what make the 21c Hotels so appealing. With the exception of Bentonville, which is a new build, each of the 21c hotels was uniquely developed as an adpative reuse.

Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin': Another 21C is on the Way
Details are still very sketchy, but rumour has it that arty boutique hotel chain 21C Museum Hotels is set to add another property to its swelling portfolio; in Oklahoma!
Business First reported the other day that the company "is applying for incentives and looking at other financing options for a 21c location in Oklahoma City." and quotes president Craig Greenberg as saying: �We are still working on finalizing all our incentives".

Even The Elevators Will Make You Feel Cultured At the New 21c Museum Bentonville
If Akansas wasn't already on your list of places to visit in 2013 (and we hate to say it, but why would it?), here's a new reason: the art-obsessed boutique hotel chain 21c Museum has just opened a new 104-room property in downtown Bentonville, AR. And yes, those penguins have made an appearance once again. 25 of them, in fact. Only this time, they're green!
As with the other 21c Museum hotels in Louisvile and Cincinnati, the hotel adjoins a contemporary art museum and integrates that art into�literally�every corner of the hotel.
Hence, the six-foot tiger sculpture, the "hairy chandelier", and the elevator mural (pictured) that turns a normally tedious moment of waiting into an opportunity to feel cultured. Walmart must feel so proud.

Yellow Penguins! Naked Statues! Inside Cincinnati's New 21c Museum Hotel
Fresh off last week's ribbon cutting, we buzzed by Cincinnati's new 21c Museum Hotel on its first Saturday in business for a quick tour. Our visit was so fresh, in fact, the paint literally hadn't even dried yet (we saw a guy running around spot-touching the walls).
When we arrived at 5 o'clock the hotel was booked solid and curious passerby were parading in, some having just caught "The Nutcracker" matinee at the performing arts theater across the street. Or checked out the latest exhibits at next door's sprawling Contemporary Arts Center (designed by Zaha Hadid). Or just pounded few brewskies at Toby Keith's bar around the corner.
In other words, the location's choice and the masses welcome! 24/7, in fact. The 10-floor, 156-room property, just like its Louisville sibling, doubles as a contemporary art gallery whose exhibition spaces are free for anyone to peruse, any day, at any time.

The Hotel You Really Want to Stay at for Derby Weekend Is Never Gonna Be Available
UPDATE: A rep for 21C Museum Hotel tells us that you don't have to know the hotel founders to book a room but you do have to book early. For example, they are already getting requests for next year and since there are only 90 rooms and a lot of repeat guests, the rooms will go fast. Hurry!
This weekend is the 2012 Kentucky Derby and if you were smart, you booked a hotel room way back in February. But sadly, the hotel that we all really want to stay at for the Derby is never going to be available during the horse race.
We're talking about the arty cool 21C Museum Hotel, a hybrid contemporary art museum/boutique hotel. The hotel is booked this year and presumably, next year and the year after that and the year after that. The reason being is not just because it's a popular spot but also because we've heard during the Derby, friends and family of the hotel's owner get first priority. Aw shucks.
For now, we'll have to live vicariously through these up close and personal snapshots from Business Insider. In the meantime, we'll be scheming of ways to get into the owner's good graces.

21c Museum Hotel Breaks Ground in Bentonville
Now that Wal-Mart heiress, Alice Walton, has opened the Crystal Bridges Museum of Modern Art (it was her millions and her incredible art collection that got the museum off the ground), cultured visitors to the museum in Bentonville, Ark. are in need of an equally cultured place to stay.
Fortunately, ground has broken on the new 21c Museum Hotel, which will be modeled after the original 21c Museum Hotel in Louisville. And yes, it's also being bankrolled by the Waltons.
The hotel will be located in the city's downtown arts corridor but Bentonville is a small town so the Crystal Bridges museum will still be walkable. The four-story contemporary style building will have 103 rooms, including suites, a fitness center and a sustainable restaurant. In fact, the whole building will be built and operated using green practices and sustainable materials. And of course, there will be art. Lots of it.

Wal-Mart Family Is Behind The New 21C Museum Hotel in Arkansas
The 21C Museum Hotel in Louisville.
The good news is there's going to be yet another 21C Museum Hotel opening. That will make four 21C Museum hotels--the original in Louisville, the second in Cincinnati, a third in Austin and now, a hotel near Bentonville, Arkansas.
The odd news is that the people who are making this third hotel possible are some Wal-Mart people. The Waltons, the heirs to the megastore that famously bans music and books for being too provocative, are now supporting an art hotel. The WSJ reports:
A Walton family investment arm and partner 21c Museum Hotel of Louisville, Ky., are scheduled to disclose Tuesday that they will construct a $28 million, 130-room hotel near Bentonville's downtown square that will open by 2012.

The 21C Museum Hotel is one of the funkiest, quirkiest, art/design hotels in the world but if you can't find a way to get to Louisville, Kentucky, don't worry, there's still a way for you to bring home a piece of the hotel's sensibility--through its newly launched Online Shop.
Items from the hotel like scented candles from Malin + Goetz, jewelry from local designer Elva Fields, chocolates from TCHO and 21c-branded items like water bottles ($10), umbrellas ($30), t-shirts ($21, heh) and even mint julep cups ($48.)
And for those still lusting after hotel bathrobes, the 21c Museum Hotel robe starts at an affordable $72. However, our favorite item is the 6 1/2" tallred ceramic penguin that you also see placed at various parts of the hotel but in larger sizes. Waaay better than a t-shirt.

A New 21C Museum Hotel Will Open in Cincinnati
The 21C Museum Hotel in Louisville.
A reader in Ohio tipped us off last night about this excellent news for downtown Cincinnati--The 21C Museum Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky will open its second hotel in the old Metropole Hotel next year. And in living up to the museum part of its name, the new hotel will play a huge role in the city's burgeoning contemporary art scene.
Here are some detes from the press release:
The new 21c Museum Hotel in Cincinnati will be located adjacent to the Contemporary Arts Center and across the street from the Aronoff Center for the Arts. 21c Museum Hotels is working with the Cincinnati Center City Development Corporation on the restoration, scheduled to begin next fall. The total expected cost for the project is $45 million.
21c Museum Hotel in Cincinnati will offer 160 rooms, an 8,000 square-foot contemporary art museum open to the public free of charge, and a Proof restaurant and bar serving contemporary cuisine made with locally grown ingredients.

News Release - September 13, 2000 NEW NORTH BATTLEFORD LIQUOR STORE OPENS
A new liquor store is opening in downtown North Battleford.
Doreen Hamilton, Minister Responsible for the Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority, officially opened the new North Battleford Liquor Store today. The store, which is 11,000 square feet, is situated in North Battleford's new King Street Station revitalization area on 101st Street. "Through the government's partnership with the City of North Battleford, we have been able to contribute to the development of the downtown area, while utilizing some important heritage architecture, and the architectural themes of the courthouse and Allen Sapp Gallery," Hamilton said. "In addition, we have been able to meet customers' needs for a larger, more contemporary liquor store with easier access, improved parking and increased product selection." The new store replaces one presently located on 12th Avenue. All staff have moved to the new location. The new liquor store incorporates parts of the city's former Royal Bank Building, including two colonials, the dolomite limestone surround and stonework from the outside of the building. The new building's architecture complements similar buildings in the area. It also provides a large, bright shopping environment for liquor store customers, increased product selection and improved access and parking. The store is open from 10 a.m. until 9 p.m. Monday to Saturday. The City of North Battleford plans to continue work on the King Street Station area in the coming months to create pedestrian walkways and landscaping. -30- For more information, contact: Lisa Thomson Liquor and Gaming Authority Regina Phone: (306) 787-1721 |

2013 Fall Fishing Forecast for Northeast Mississippi Lakes
JACKSON - Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) fisheries biologists are excited about the fall fishing season in Northeast Mississippi. Fishing in this region has already started to improve, as water temperatures decrease. "Fall fishing is often overlooked as most people start concentrating on hunting," said MDWFP Fisheries Biologist Tyler Stubbs. "However, in the fall, fish will feed more in preparation for the winter months producing some of the best fishing of the year," said Stubbs. Fall bass anglers should target lakes that have large shad and shiner populations such as Pickwick, Bay Springs, Trace State Park, and the Canal Section Lakes A through E that make up the Tenn-Tom Waterway.
Crappie and bream fishing is also improving as the seasons begin to change. Columbus and Aberdeen Lakes boast some of the best fall crappie fishing in the state. Most anglers at these lakes fish around submerged structure in the old river runs. The state fishing lakes in Northeast Mississippi provide great fall fishing opportunities, too. "Lake Monroe, Tippah County Lake, and Elvis Presley Lake are great lakes to fish if you're looking for a smaller, quieter atmosphere," said Stubbs. "They all provide great fall fishing for crappie, bream and catfish," added Stubbs. These lakes have abundant shoreline access so a boat is not needed. Most anglers target submerged tree tops using live bait.
Many fish attractors have been added to these lakes over the past few years and can be found on our website at www.mdwfp.com/fishing-boating/lake-depth-maps .

It's no coincidence that the top three cameras in our monthly list of the most-viewed digital cameras all had big Black Friday deals from various retailers. Now that the holiday shopping season has officially kicked off, DCR visitors are getting down to business and browsing for the best camera deals of the season.
October's top ranked camera, the PowerShot SX20, tumbled all the way to eighth place to make way for the PowerShot SD1400, November's most-viewed camera. The Olympus E-5 made a quick exit, and the Nikon D5000 holds on to the last position on the list. Read on to see how it all shaped up.
And don't forget, if you need some help choosing a camera, you can post questions and get feedback from the Digital Camera Review online community by registering for our forums. If you're looking to buy, check out our What Camera Should I Buy? forum. If you need help with your current camera, check out our brand-specific forums.
1. Canon PowerShot SD1400 IS (previously #4) – The PowerShot SD1400 IS came out victorious amid the Black Friday scramble. If you didn't snatch up one of these 4x optical zoom ultracompacts on Friday, there are still comparable deals to be had on this camera at a variety of online retailers. Canon PowerShot SD1400 IS Review | Canon PowerShot SD1400 IS User Opinions |
2. Canon EOS Rebel T2i (previously #3) – Another Black Friday winner, the Rebel T2i is still a great value with features like an 18 megapixel CMOS sensor and high quality HD video recording. Canon EOS Rebel T2i Review | Canon EOS Rebel T2i User Opinions |
3. Nikon Coolpix P100 (previously #2) – Falling behind just one spot, the 26x optical zoom P100 stands tall in the top ten. And it should - with a 10.3 megapixel backside-illuminated CMOS sensor, it offers full-res burst shooting at 10 fps. Nikon Coolpix P100 Review | Nikon Coolpix P100 User Opinions |
4. Canon PowerShot G12 (first time on the list) - Canon's flagship PowerShot leapfrogs into the fourth position. It's no wonder - the G12 was easily one of the best point-and-shoots we tested in 2010. It brings HD video recording to the G series for the first time. Canon PowerShot G12 Review | Canon PowerShot G12 User Opinions |
5. Nikon D3000 (previously #6) – Back in the top five after a dip to sixth in October, the entry-level-est Nikon DSLR remains a solid buy with a 10.2 megapixl DX format sensor and an 11-point AF system. Nikon D3000 Review | Nikon D3000 User Opinions |

The Line
First, I would like to say thanks for the Triumph posts. They were so helpful so I am turning to you again for advice. Ok, so the situation is that my gf has become very needy and I have become very missing since I am now focusing on increasing my value for myself. I have lost several pounds, focused on school, and hanging out with my guy friends. Accordingly, one of her friends left town yesterday and is to be gone for several months so my theory is the reason she has become so needy is because she does not have alot of friends with whom she keeps into steady contact with. This is because they like to get drunk and be really stupid and my girl wants no part of that. So, the situation last night was that I passed out over and her place after hanging out with one of my friends all day. She had gone out and was playing trivia or something so I just passed out. Fast forward to 2am and all of a sudden I am woken up by her returning drunk and wanting to talk. I stayed super chill and just told her that I am asleep and I don't want to talk right now. She tells me that I don't love her and tries to be the victim but I just pass out. No other word between us. In the middle of the night, we wake and end up cuddling, however, I woke up this morning to her hurriedly getting dressed, almost as if she were going to leave me there had I not woken up on my own. She tries being mildly argumentative in the car to class but I stay disengaged and super chill. My question is should I let her re-engage? My thoughts and feelings are, honestly, she could leave or stay, but this is so unimportant to me that I do not want to even let this argument/situation or whatever it could be called to have any meaning in my life. I do not think about it other than to want to see what her real problem may be. All day, I have just thought about doing what I need to do in my life and have not been letting this affect me. I guess I am not used to these disconnection because I have typically been so emotionally invested in my relationships that if something like this had happened, then the issue had to worked out then and there. Now, especially after the Triumph post, I am totally feeling this no contact in this situation or very limited contact. Anyways, any words of advice Shark?
Quick answer: This is the unfortunate reality of game. Once you're in the pilot seat of a relationship and the power dynamic is disproportionally tilted in your favor; you will lose interest in your girl. If she plays her cards right and gets hand over you, she might be able to revive your attention. Otherwise, your liking for her will keep decaying and worst (or best?) case scenario, you end up liking someone else. A man possessed is like a woman scorned; nothing can deter him from his mission.
I brought out this comment because it brings up an interesting question regarding a relationship premise we never challenge. It's always black and white; if a relationship is bad you dump it, if a relationship is good, you keep it. But where do you draw the line for dumping a GOOD relationship for pragmatic reasons? If you're an investment banker or in med school and your hours are demanding; so much so that it becomes IMPOSSIBLE to maintain rapport or at least difficult enough that you don't find it emotionally cost effective, what do you do then? If you're making changes to your life, more focused in general, and it starts trading off with your interest in your relationship, should you pull the trigger or reprioritize? Relationships aren't monochromatic, an imbalance WILL backfire, the question is, will it be worth it?
Who the fuck knows. But keep this shit in mind:
In the scenario where you choose to pursue work, or where your lack of motivation to reestablish your relationship was so great that your girlfriend dumped you first, be ready for break up anxiety. It's only normal for us to crave the POWER to choose, and I've had many a man tell me "I don't want her back, I just want her to chase me." Let it go, the complex will erode the motivation you've spent so long nurturing. The sudden pangs of jealousy or dread are expected reflexes, especially if you don't find another girl to quickly fall back on. I've seen too many guys double back on their work ethic because they "never knew what they had till they lost it." Fuck that, you should work even HARDER. Mistakes in audacity are easily overcome with more audacity.
Social conditioning will always encourage the family bond (an ironic thing for a society with a divorce rate higher than 7 trillion percent); but it has gone so far that men tend to associate any girl with their future lives. You could be 19, years away from getting married, but still you're picturing your girlfriend's face on the backdrop of 3 kids and a big house. And so, you begin to think "maybe I SHOULD tradeoff some work for this relationship, I mean, family is important isn't it?"
See the flaw in thinking? Because you are so strongly conditioned to thinking in terms of SOUL MATES and LONG TERM RELATIONSHIPS and COMMITMENT, and simultaneously socialized to place family above everything; you end up placing your girlfriend above everything.
Don't take this the wrong way, in the words of Don Corleone, "A man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man."
But I end this with some final words of wisdom: If you lose your girlfriend in the process of achieving your dream, there's always another girl around the corner. If you lose your dreams in the process of keeping your girlfriend, well…
And no. Do not say "She is my dream."

How much money do you have? Real estate will work too .
Not enough to run for a living but enough to be dangerous.
Obsessed is just a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated
2015 Goals: FM-2:49:59, HM-PR, 10M-58:59, 10K-35:59, 5K-16:59, Miles-2900
My theory is go on effort. You never know when wind, hills or a bad breakfast will mess with your race and shooting for a set pace, may cause a meltdown. On the other hand you may be more rested and ready than you expected and run faster.
10k Effort should feel hard, but manageable. If you do HR you will be 85-90% of max. You should be able to speak in broken sentences. Not gasping for air, but not able to chat either. That is until the last mile, where you cash in all your chips and go for it!
True, a lot can change on race day, in good ways or bad ways. I'm hoping that the end of Oct will bring some decent weather and that all of this running in the heat will pay off.
I was just running the numbers and before going off the Pfitz plan, I averaged 58.92mpw for 14 weeks (10 base building + first 4 weeks of Pfitz), then if the next 8 weeks go as planned, I'll have averaged 89.08mpw for 11 weeks, then start tapering. If nothing else, it's a considerably better effort than my 31mpw leading into my marathon back in March.
My 10k will come at the end of that 8 week period, right before I start tapering, should I do any kind of taper for the 10k (couple of short days maybe?), or just run it at the end of a 90+ mile week and see how it goes?

Mikkey - I've decide for 50% this week and 20% next week. What quality are you putting in? If the hay is in the barn, is there any use in doing any quality? Except for self confidence.
Great taper! It's tough to have the courage to trust your training and not try to squeeze in one more workout.
Strugglr - Life is a struggle. You either progress or regress. Run for a living my friend? There is a magic number: 200. 200 stands for 200 Miles a week. A quick 15 Miler in the morning and a 15 Miler to cool off in the evenings. Do that and you will run for a living. If your body can sustain this volume.
Pain is temporary. Pride is forever. Until the next race.
That would be a dream job to run marathons for a living. I think it requires starting marathon training at age 5.
Struglr- Yeah a nice 15 miler to cool off on those winter evenings haha.
Dave- I find 5k,10k and half pace to all be about 10sec/km spread. 4 mile at 10k race pace is a hard workout but should give you confidence of 10k pace.

PK - you are confused, you definitely have in mind a different guy (RMR, Frank, Swamp?). I am slow thinking (may look like calm and reasonable), unwilling to make a final decision person .
"You're only as good as your last race..."
Oh well good to see you are human !
Yes, PK, I changed your race . And oh yeah, I am human all right...
I find that 10K is the most confusing.
When you are well-trained (for your potential) - 5K, 10K, 1/2M are pretty close (so small errors become BIG).
For 5K, I can estimate my misery tolerance reasonably well.
For 1/2M (and even more-so for 10K), I need to rely on McMillan and my Garmin (with weather taken into consideration).

Naw, my life is not a struggle. I have it easy. That's why I run. To insert some pain and suffering into my life.
Plus don't elites barely make enough to get by? I mean how long are their running careers; 10-15 years tops? And I doubt most of them pull in more than 6 figures. Running for a living would be a struggle.
But Nils I did do 15 miles today. In a cool 89 degrees with a 75 dew point. It was delightful.
Just stay off the track as you've made it this far! Last proper quality workout for me will be tomorrow or Friday but haven't decided what I'm doing yet. Your 50/20% taper sounds good...just continue at your easy and very easy pace.
PRs - 10k - 36:52 (7/11) Half - 1:21:37 (2/11) Mary - 2:51:20 (4/13)
Strugglr - The competitive advantage of the African runners is that they run alot when they are young. So, I figure the trick is to start at an early age. Get your children to run, What is a 5 Miler a day. 40 Minutes. Just do it every day, starting from a young age. If you calculate the prize money to be made winning the marathon majors and sponsorships from brands, a marathon winner can easily make millions of dollars in a couple of years, have enough to retire with at age thirty.
My dad was a jogger and took me on my first runs along the Potomac River in 1984, I got a side stitch and decided that running wasn't for me, too painful. I prefered soccer at that age. Well, if he would have encouraged me to train regularly, I'd be pretty fast today. Whatever the sport or discipline, you have to start at an early age for the competitive advantage. First come, first serve. Or early to bed and early to rise, will make you healthy, wealthy and wise. Got to start the earliest.
Basically, you have to convince your child. Do a bit more now and later, relax in a mansion in the Bahamas and kick back or do a minimum now and experience the average way of life.
New low this morning, 175.0 on the nose! This is officially the lowest I've ever been as an adult, the last time I weighed 175, my height started with a 5 instead of a 6.
I think another 10lbs is reasonable by Richmond (1lb/week). That'll put me down 30lbs from my marathon in March.
Dave: That's really great work. 20-30 pounds will make a huge difference. That alone could get you to sub 3 from your previous PR but then, on top of the weight loss, you are putting in a great cycle. Remind me what diet you are following.
Since reading "Racing Weight" 3 weeks ago I have been following the Diet Quality Score approach. I like it because I am not hungry all the time and I eat healthy without annoying calorie counting. My DQS average the last 3 weeks is over 26 out of 32. Anyone else use DQS?
Dtothe2nd- congrats on the weight loss, very impressive.
Thoughts from the group. Is it too early to start mixing in Yasso 800 workouts for NY, or is it about right since I'm just over 8 weeks out. I'm thinking of hitting the track tonight for 8-10 800s with a quarter jog.
dan - what's your team name? I'm on the latest starting Ultra Mixed team. Should be interesting...
Dtothe2nd: Nice weight loss. I didn't gain too much weight on my vacation, I'd like to lose at least another 10 lbs or more before Philly. No more Dole Whip's for me...
Well I survived basically 3 weeks of travel and vacation. Did VT100on100 8/16 where I ran more hills then I probably did all year (or at least summer). Did some hillier running in Lebanon, NH while traveling for work. Then visited Mickey for a long-time. Tough to get anything in outside in Central Florida especially since we were there the hottest time of the year. Lots of faster TM running to get running in while doing vacation stuff. Ran everyday except the first travel day.
Unfortunately, it seems the Orlando weather traveled north with me. Looking forward to get into the meat of Philly training in cooler Fall weather, but first I'll have some fun running Reach The Beach on 9/12-9/13 (a 207.2 mile relay).
Also, while in Orlando I tried on the Hoka Clifton's they were light and seemed nice, so ordered a pair at 15% off, will probably use them at RTB since I have to run 6 times...
Hope all is well.
Since 2004 PRs: Marathon: 2:48:41 (4/2011) 25k: 1:38:17 (3/2010) 10k: 37:10 (4/2011)... A long time ago....

Yasso 800s...sure, but only for a fun workout and not for actually predicting your marathon time. I can do 10x800s with 400s jog rest at 2:45 per. Marathon in 2:45...yeah no chance in hell. I would bet money anyone on this thread can do a Yasso 800 workout significantly faster than it would predict their marathon time. Well anyone except Single Speed CaliB.
dz - the best way to determine a goal/range time for a marathon is to do some races, especially 2-6 weeks out. Anything in the 10k-25k range, with the longer races towards the 4-6 week range, shorter 2-4 week range. 10 x 800m isn't going to really tell you anything.
Dtothe2nd - congrats on the weight loss!
dz - With your speed, the 800 is probably too short of a vo2max interval for FM training. I'd either split up the 8000m of work into something like 1000-1000-1200-1600-1200-1000-1000 w/ 60-80% time recoveries or run pure time-based intervals like 6x4:00 or 5x5:00.

Well... Even my single speed body allowed me to run 6x800 in 2:41-2:48 range within 90+ mi week this July (without training for short distances). And yes, there is no way I could run 2:41-2:45, even with the mileage I was running. I am really curious to see if there will be any gain in shorter distances times for me after 6-10 weeks of targeting speedier workouts (never trained for that stuff before, even for a few weeks).
Dtothe2nd - congrats on huge and consistent weight loss! That is really impressive - I cannot loose 5 lbs for almost two years. I know you mentioned before, but I will join to Strugglr's question - what weight loss approach are you following?
Thanks everyone! I can definitely feel the difference, my running is the best it's ever been, even with the heat.
Strugglr, I don't have a plan or anything, I just try to eat a clean diet, lots of fruits and vegetables, keep the processed stuff to a minimum, keep the sweets to a minimum. Here's what I'm eating today, most days are fairly similar, especially for breakfast/lunch, I eat almost those same meals everyday, dinner will vary, but usually some type of meat with vegetables, sometimes pasta or a rice casserole.
Breakfast: Oatmeal and coffee
Lunch: Chicken wrap, mixed berries, apples, grapes
Dinner: Fish and broccoli
Snacks: Protein bar, peanut butter pretzels (I also do chocolate milk or a banana immediately after my runs, especially with the doubles I've been doing)
I haven't been tracking it, but that's probably around 2,200 calories. At this point, I basically just know about how much to eat to keep dropping weight (and still keep my energy up), the ramp up in mileage is definitely helping too.
Cal, for the majority of my weight loss, I've used myfitnesspal to track my calories. I stopped drinking calories, the only liquid calories I get are a little bit of cream in my coffee in the morning, about 80cal worth, so not much. The calculation that mfp gives you is an ok starting point, but everyone's BMR and TDEE are going to be different, so basically you have to figure out what your maintenance level is and then eat 2-300cal less than that a day for steady loss. Cutting more than that will usually affect your energy levels too much to maintain training, at least for me it does.
Yeah, that's a lot of 800s. If it was 6x800, I'd run it at 2:40 or so, but 10 would put me closer to 2:50. And despite a world of proof otherwise, I think I'm capable of running a marathon under 2:50.
PR's: 5K - 17:16, 10K - 37:06 (HM Split), HM - 1:18:14, M - 2:55:58
2015 Goals: Sub 35 10k, Sub 2:50 marathon
Yasso 800s are a garbage predictor. It's nothing but a cute coincidence that works for some and doesn't work for most. Honestly, how could 5mi (or even 7.5mi) possibly predict a marathon time? There's probably people out there who can race 5mi straight and would be unable to hold those 800m splits for a marathon time.
Even a half marathon is too short for marathon predictions...
PRs 10k 35:41 HM 1:21:53 FM 2:49:36
Agreed. I'm doing a 20K in two weeks as part of a regular 20-mile training run. I'm not racing it, hope to comfortably run 6:30 pace.
thanks Thomas, I agree on the 800s. I did a 14 miler on Monday with the middle 10 alternating between 5:45 and 7:00 each mile, that's probably a more productive run as it relates to a marathon.
Thanks for the feedback guys.
Tough to get anything in outside in Central Florida especially since we were there the hottest time of the year.
Welcome to my world! Acclimatizing only takes you so far. I'm really excited to be through the worst of it, though.
On the bright side, the Spring training season is really very nice here.
I'm thinking I have an honest shot at sub-3 in the Spring. This Fall cycle, my focus has shifted to consistency, volume building, strength, and injury prevention. I'll take whatever time comes out of this progression and build from there. I won't have an honest assessment of my fitness until late October when I race a half in much better weather.
5k: 20:17 (2015) | 10k: 42:25 (2014) | Half: 1:33:57 (2014) | Full: 3:24:27 (2015)
I think your capable of faster
Dave- awesome job on the weight. Why am I not seeing beer and chocolate in that food list ?
I am with Piwi Kiwi on that. Swim - I am pretty sure you will be able to run at least 2:45 for those 10x800, if not faster. There is no way you will run slower with all your speedy workouts during monster mileage weeks.
Don't know how you do it. Actually you probably didn't go to Disney World for 10 days and stay up late every night, leading to not being able to get up early to actually run outside. Running/training while on vacation is hard. We didn't have a summer up here in the NorthEast, I found it in Orlando, it was like 100F for the first 5 days there. Ooof.
I ran yesterday just after lunch. Almost 90 with dew point of 71. Even as I was dying a slow death (while only running 4 miles at 9:00 pace) I was thinking about how this isn't even hot for a lot of people on this thread.
Also, I've realized that direct sun is WAY more brutal for me than temperature. It makes me understand some of my problems with Boston this spring (reasonable temp, but direct sun the whole way).
Good eye, but don't worry, I definitely drink beer and eat chocolate (and lots of other good things), I just try not to overdo it. In fact, I just picked up a six pack of porter last night. I will watch calories elsewhere, but I will not drink light beer to save calories.
+1. My thoughts exactly - I am fine with 65, even up to 70 oF, only if there is no sun.
Mikkey - beautful visualisation of the Cologne race course here, good for mental preparation http://vimeo.com/60435018 Run fast and relaxed. Enjoy the ride.
Long run question for you guys. With 8 (maybe 9 depending on if I do a two week or three week taper, thoughts on that?) long runs left, and three 20 milers already on the books, anybody see anything wrong with doing them all in the 20-24 mile range?
My 20 miler last week had the least impact on me of any long run I've ever done, didn't even feel it the next day, so I don't think I'd be overdoing it with where my endurance is at right now. I think a lot of people have problems with long runs, which is why most plans have them ramp up slowly and only do a few runs at or over 20 miles. From some discussions going on over on RA, I was also going to do a few of them as fast finish runs, just to mix it up a bit.
Just found out that I'm not on the team. I told the team organizer that I was in relatively late, but thought it wasn't going to matter because there were two people on the verge of dropping out. Apparently both of them have recovered. I'll have to get it more together for next year, I guess. Have fun!
If they're not affecting your ability to do your other runs, I say go for it. Doing 20+ every weekend pre-taper is my plan anyways, FWIW.

Verizon to demo LTE-capable devices at CES
The carrier confirms, via Twitter, that it plans to showcase its first 4G LTE devices at the annual electronics event.
Verizon Wireless confirmed via its Twitter account today that it will launch new Android devices with support for its growing 4G LTE network at CES 2011 .
We don't know exactly which devices the carrier will showcase at its January 6 press event, but potential handsets include the Droid Incredible HD or a Verizon-branded LG Optimus 2X .
It's also possible that we could see a Motorola tablet that has been getting a lot of attention lately. Moto recently began teasing a new Honeycomb-based tablet for the conference, which ought to be the same unit demonstrated by Andy Rubin at Dive Into Mobile. With a little over two weeks before the annual conference kicks off, the chance of leaked pictures and videos increases. Also, Verizon's COO, John Stratton, said this week that the carrier has "LTE smartphones on the horizon" and that "Motorola will be right there."
Are you looking forward to a specific phone or tablet from Verizon? What are you hoping to see unveiled at CES?
Updated on December 22 at 11:31 a.m. PT with Stratton's statement.

P(N) (N is the natural number set.)
[0, 1] n Q
Its P(N) but it's important you understand why the others are countable. (I take it P means power set).
First of. If a set is countable then a subset of it is also countable.
So... Is countable?
If it is then will be countable.
Surely you can tell that is countable?
Do you know anything about cardinality yet?
Ya no way could I be fully proving that of the top of my head. Could prove the rest are countable though...
To be honest I kinda misinterpreted the question as 'which one is uncountable' so I figured try to show OP how to eliminate the countable ones. Never the less... If OP is learning about cardinality that could be used via Cantors card(x) < card(P(x)) theorem.
I think i can see why P(N) is countable cus usually when you take all the subsets of N right? and thats not countable cus there's alot of sets i really suck at proving stuff I looked at cantors therom
Proof: It suffices to show that [0, 1] is uncountable (see Exercise 7). If
not, then we have a bijection from N to [0, 1]. This is a sequence (x) that
lists all numbers in [0, 1], in some order. By considering the canonical
decimal expansions, we will construct a number not on the list.
Xl = CI,I CI,2 C I.3
Suppose that the expansions appear in order as indicated above. We
build a canonical decimal expansion that disagrees with every expansion
in our list. Let an = 1 if Cn,n = 0, and an = 0 if Cn,n > o. Now (a) disagrees
in position n with the expansion of Xn. Furthermore, since (a) has no 9, (a)
cannot be the alternative expansion of any number in our list. Therefore,
the expansion (a) does not represent a number in our list. By Theorem
13.25, (a) is the canonical expansion of some real number. Thus our list
does not contain expansions for all real numbers in [0, 1]. .
but i dont really get how to use it

Average Customer Review
It was really interesting to learn about things that damage our hearing. After reading this book I learned that I should not listen to my music so loud with my earphones because it will negatively effect my hearing in the future.

This book really helped me grasp decibel calculations and audiograms. Without this book I would have been totally lost! I usually read the chapters before class to get the most out of it. It also has a lot of helpful graphs and pictures.
