Snow Pants & Bibs
Ski & Snow Pants
Product Selection
Hit the Slopes in Ski & Snow Pants
Keep active as the snow piles up. Pull on a pair of snow and ski pants that keep you warm and dry during prime carving season.
A winter-weather essential, ski pants and bibs safeguard you from moisture and frigid air. Face mountain conditions in snow pants and snowboard pants designed with breakthrough, cold-weather technology.
Find the fit, color and style that matches your outdoor adventure. Shop popular outerwear brands for snow pants you can depend on – like Burton®, Columbia®, The North Face® and Spyder®. Choose from men's ski pants, women's ski pants, kids' snow pants.
Buying Tips
From the slopes to a backcountry expedition, your snow and ski pants must deliver absolute comfort and protection from the elements.
Water protection is key for your winter outerwear. Ski pants are available with a variety of different water protection levels. Skiers and snowboarders should look for pants constructed from synthetic fabrics that are specially treated for full waterproof protection and breathability.
Your ski and snow pants should be built with fully sealed seams for absolute moisture protection. Moisture-wicking technology in your pants works to pull perspiration from your skin, keeping you dry and fresh as you dominate the slopes.
Look for added features on your snow and ski pants. Elastic waists ensure a snow, custom-like fit without limiting movement. Built-in gaiters keep ice and snow penetrating your boots and pants. For maximum durability, choose pants designed with a reinforced seat and knee area – high-wear areas that need protection from elements and an extra buffer from falls on the slopes.
Snow bibs resemble overalls, secured by a pair of suspenders with added fabric that extends over the waist and chest areas. Bibs tend to provide added warmth and help your pants stay in place.
Expert Advice
Ski and snow pants should fit loosely enough that they allow a full range of movement – whether you're on your board, skis or just trekking outdoors in the snow. Pants that are too large, however, can lead to coordination problems.
For comfort, look for soft-lined and brushed interiors, which feel soft and lightweight during wear. Side-zipper vents that run down the outside of your pants allow for strategic air flow without compromising moisture protection.

So far so good... the product even though refurbished - you would never be able to tell. It looked and seemd brand new. Have only used it about 4 times, but it seems to be doing a good job. The vac is a bit heavy and the hose is a bit stiff, but thats what all the reviews say. Collection canister is plenty big enough for my use, dont have to empty it every time if I dont want to.
Our first Dyson lasted us more than 6 years and paid for itself many times over. To be able to get a new, lighter, easier to maneuver model for about half of what we paid for one years earlier was great. We have recommended the Dyson to a few of our friends and they purchased them and love them. We and all of our friends that have pets were replacing our vacuums about every 15 months. When my wife and I got tired of doing this and spent the money on our first Dyson, there was some trepidation. Now, after 6+ years with our first Dyson, we would have spent more on replacement vacuums and we haven't had to purchase a vacuum cleaner bag in that time. These machines just keep getting better.
Vacuumed the whole house as soon as it got it. Could not believe how awful my old vacuum was after seening what this was picking up. I didn't want to spend the money, but had bought 2 other cheap models that each lasted a year. So I did it, got a Dyson, and don't regret it one bit!!
This is the best vacuum cleaner I've owned. I have a black dog that sheds moderately, and all light-colored carpeting and furniture. This vacuum picks up all the hair, and is lightweight and easy to navigate around corners and in small spaces/on stairs. Highly recommend this product.
This is the best vacuum I have ever owned, I wish I had gotten one sooner in life. The hard part was getting over the normal way I used a vacuum, forwards & backwards & learning to let the Dyson do its job with ease. It is easy to maneuver in multiple directions with ease. Getting in & around so many places without moving most of furniture with regular vacuuming. It turns to the left & right with just the movement of your arm. I starting spring cleaning a week after getting my Dyson Ball due to the amount of dust I was getting in the canister (full from just 1 room) from just doing the centers of the each room. The canister is so easy to empty with just a push of a button. I knew I needed to do a full cleaning in every room. Having the hose & 2.5 small attachments right at your fingertips is great (the small wand has a brush that moves up to use & down when not needed). The vacuum at the floor shuts off when you pull out the hose, giving you full suction for a deep cleaning with everything you do. The hose was stiff when I first started using it but it is getting easier each time I pull it out. I cleaned everything from the furniture, twig wreaths to the lamp shades with just my Dyson. In the past I used a small 1 gallon hand held vac & my regular vac that also had the on board attachments but I never had full power when in use. The carpet feels so much softer & looks great. I have never been so excited to clean/vacuum in my life. A Dyson is worth whatever one pays for it - just get one & stop waiting for someday!
love everything about this vacuum, I bought this item refurbished a few years ago (more than 3 if I'm remembering correctly) and it still works amazingly
three cats. It sucks up all their fur balls. Love it
I have been recommending my Dyson purple vac to everyone I talk to about vacuums! I live in a cabin with three standard poodles who I clip with scissors indoors on the carpet. Outside is sand and sandy loam on the ground and can fill one third of the canister every time I vacuum. I clean a small church every other week and use it on the floors, both linoleum and carpet. My only wish is that the hose would stretch out further. I know when it gets older that it will stretch out over time. I collect agates ad am forever dragging in small rocks in my boots and with the carpet multicolor I have, I don't see them until they are being sucked into the vacuum. I bang into things all the time and the carpet I have isn't finished off around the edges so the roller pulls up the strings when I vacuum over it. I LOVE THIS VACUUM!!!!!! IT IS A WORK HORSE.
I have wanted a Dyson for years but couldn't justify the cost. I had never considered a refurbished model but heard good things so thought I'd give it a shot. There were definitely signs that it was not brand new as the bottom had a few marks but it worked perfectly. This vacuum works better than any other that I've owned, and it's lasted the longest. It stands up to person hair and dog hair - you just need to clean the roller regularly which is fairly easy to do. It's not super light so I wouldn't recommend this to someone who has difficulty lifting but it's not really heavy either. It moves around smoothly. The refurbished is a great option if you don't have a lot of money to spend.
I have had a Dyson vacuum for 7 years, we built a new house so I thought I would purchase a new one and use my old one for the garage and car cleaning. I was a bit Leary because it was refurbished. But it came wrapped from the factory and looked brand new. As usual works great. I love this company and the high quality of their products. If you want an awesome powerful suction vacuum with easy wand attached to the handle and attachments at your fingertips this is it. It will last you many, many years. Well worth the initial investment. I promise you won't regret this purchase.

What is it?
Marmot's most comfortable waterproof/breathable coating technology ever. NanoPro's™ superior microporous structure is dynamically air permeable, allowing for air exchange to help shed excess moisture vapor without compromising the waterproofness or windproofness of the garment.
How does it work?
Marmot NanoPro™ coating utilizes a new microporous technology with a pore structure that is 30 % smaller than previous generations. These very small, very densely packed pores allow for enhanced breathability while maintaining excellent waterproofness. This pore structure is also air permeable allowing for dynamic air exchange. This air permeability combined with the enhanced breathability creates a fabric that is incredible comfort through a wide range of actives.
What are the benefits of this technology?
The most technically advance 2.5 Layer coating on the market. Offering unprecedented performance in a coated fabric with it's Dynamic Air Permeability, and long term durable waterproofness. Marmot NanoPro™ is 43% more breathable then our previous coating technology. This advancement in fabric technology brings a new level of performance to value conscious consumers.
Performance Specifications
Waterproofness: 10,000 mm minimum JIS-L 1092
Breathability: 17,000 gm / 24h minimum JIGS-1099 B1
Hohenstein RET: 5.0 to 5.4
Technology: 2.5 layer Microporous Coating with Dry Touch finish
MemBrain® Strata™
What is it?
MemBrain Strata is Marmot's own lightweight waterproof/breathable technology: a lamination technology that rates a whopping 20,000mm in waterproof performance and 20,000 gr in breathability.
Requiring neither lining nor 3-layer construction, MemBrain Strata products are by far the lightest, most breathable garments in their categories.
How does it work?
Marmot's proprietary 2.5 layer MemBrain Strata uses micro non-organic particles on the inside of the lamination to increase durability and provide a dry touch instead of that clammy feeling you get from some other products.
The back print pattern is carefully designed to achieve the maximum durability and breathability. Abrasion tests rate 4-5 times better than regular laminates, which is why 2-layer laminates require a separate lining.
What are the benefits of this technology?
MemBrain Strata creates a soft, quiet and compressible fabric while its abrasion resistant design achieves maximum durability.
Compared to other 2.5 layer coatings in the market, our lamination is almost 100% more breathable. In addition, our laminated fabric stretches more than coated fabrics.
Performance Specifications
Waterproofness: 40 PSI 20,000mm
Water Repellency: spray test 80/20
Breathability: hohenstein ret: 2.5 layer -- 6-6.5 (JIGS - 1099 B1: 2 layer->20,000 gm/24hrs)
What is it?
DriClime® mesh is a bi-component denier gradient dimensional knit made of two different denier yarns. Using extremely fine deniers this knit is extremely light with superior wicking performance.
How does it work?
The larger outer yarns are a special filament yarn with an open capillary structure, which pulls the moisture away from the skin to the backside of the mesh where it spreads to increase evaporation. The dimensional structure of the knit combined with the smaller denier yarns on the backside of the mesh increase the surface area allowing for greater moisture holding capacity.
What are the benefits of this technology?
This technology increases the interior comfort of the garment by enabling the wearer to feel less clammy and more comfortable over a wide range of temperatures and conditions. The mesh prevents condensation from collecting on the skin no matter what the level of activity due to its 3 dimensional structure. The dimensional knit structure also helps by spreading the moisture over a larger surface area maximizing the efficiency of the evaporate process. This technology solves the problem of condensation and internal comfort that even the most breathable of fabrics have problems with during high intensity activities.

Total Weight: 32 g/m2

Swinging is sexual activity that can involve partner-swapping, group sex, or sex with your own partner in other people's presence. There are swinger clubs across Denmark, some on former farms in the countryside, others in the suburbs. Windows are covered with black paint or veiled by dark curtains. Inside the club, people pay an entrance fee, undress, store their clothes in lockers, and go to a bar or common room to meet, talk, or have a drink with others - and then, maybe, to have sex. Rooms have different purposes: one is for tantric sex, perhaps, one for S&M; there's a doctor's room, and a darkroom. In swinger clubs, people aim to explore their own sexuality and inhibitions, visiting singly or with a partner.
A code of rules governs what goes on in the clubs. Nobody touches anyone else without having established relations or making an agreement beforehand. You do not join in with other people's sexual acts without an invitation; you always wear protection, and always take no for an answer. In this way, people try to make sex less complicated.

2004 Audi A8 Quattro Problem Reports
Most Reported 2004 Audi A8 Quattro Problem Reports
Clogged drains can allow rainwater to accumulate in the plenum tray (at the base of the windshield). The water may leak into the vehicle's interior, brake booster, or electrical components, which can lead to major problems. Our technicians recommend keeping the tray clear of leaves, pine needles, and other debris.
Premature wear in various multi-link suspension components can cause noises that are difficult to diagnose. Worn suspension parts can also cause uneven tire wear and create steering alignment problems.
A problem with the torque converter can cause the Check Engine Light to illuminate.
A fluid leak may develop from the propeller shaft seal on the rear of the transmission. Our technicians tell us that replacing the seal will commonly correct this concern.
Our technicians recommend having the constant velocity (CV) boots and CV joints inspected at each service. Servicing torn CV boots early can prevent the need to replace the CV half shaft or CV joint.

Photo by Mark Zuckerman / NATS INSIDER
The Nats look to take two in a row from the Orioles this afternoon.
Four things you need to know heading into today's series finale at Nationals Park…
1. Nyjer Morgan is in Jim Riggleman's starting lineup, leading off and playing center field. Looks like they're ready to move on from yesterday's events.
2. Justin Maxwell has been recalled from Class AAA Syracuse, filling the roster spot made available when Scott Olsen went on the DL. Maxwell's time here figures to be brief, because the Nats will need a starting pitcher Saturday in San Diego. Until then, they'll go with an extra player off the bench.
3. Presumptive No. 1 draft pick Bryce Harper had a performance for the ages yesterday. The 17-year-old went 6-for-6 with four home runs, a triple, a double and 10 RBI in leading the College of Southern Nevada to a 25-11 victory over Central Arizona, ensuring a spot in next weekend's Junior College World Series. This all came one day after Harper hit for the cycle in another victory Friday night. Now, I'm no baseball expert, but the only player in the history of the game I can think of who ever did anything like that was Roy Hobbs.
4. I'm taking today off, enjoying a couple of days at home before heading out on the west coast trip Tuesday. So no updates throughout the game. But please continue to discuss with each other…

Keep your head up, Nyjer. I'm wearing your shirt to the game today (hopefully they'll play).
- natsfan1a - May 23, 2010 at 3:33 PM
Second that (though I don't have a Morgan t-shirt). Oh, and perfect game today, seeing as how Mark is taking off?
- Doc - May 23, 2010 at 3:46 PM
Ah, say it ain't so Mark. Leaving us leaderless, againnnnn! Anyway, have a well-deserved day off, MarkMeister. But you gotta remember, Mark, that Roy Hobbs wasn't a top draft choice, like Harper. In fact, Hobbs' major claim to fame was that he looked a lot like Robert Redford. Goooooooooo Naaaaaaaaats!!!!
- Doc - May 23, 2010 at 4:06 PM
According to a Rizzo comment of a few months ago, "…Harper hasn't separated himself from the pack like Strasburg…". What pack he be talking 'bout—the future Hall of Famers' pack??
- Bowdenball - May 23, 2010 at 4:24 PM
Doc- as you said the comment was from a couple months ago, when Harper was struggling a bit. Pretty sure Rizzo would agree he's seperated himself now. Also, take a look at the article. 6-6 with 4 hrs would be awesome even if they were playing on the moon, but it should be noted that the wind was blowing out at 45mph. Harper wasn't the only one taking advantage- final score was 25-11.

- Mark Zuckerman - May 23, 2010 at 4:43 PM
Anon: Yes, that photo is from a previous day. I don't take a new one of Nationals Park every day, maybe one or two per homestand.
- A DC Wonk - May 23, 2010 at 4:44 PM
But still . . . he led the league with 23 homers, the next closest guy had only 11. At age 16 he hit a ball 502 feet in a HS Home Run derby, the longest ball ever hit in Tampa Bay Tropicana Park.He's no guarantee for Hall of Fame of course, or even of success at MLB. But he is clearly the best hitting prospect coming into the draft in a long time.Our sufferings of two consecutive worst-record in baseball is showing a decent upside! It's quite amazing that the best pitching prospect in easily a generation, and the best hitting prospect in perhaps a decade, happen to come up during the two years the Nats had the worst record.
- JayB - May 23, 2010 at 5:07 PM
I would have though they would bring up an extra catcher for a few days. Mark, I know you are off but it would be great to get some kind of read on Flores. It has been a long time….what is his daily routine like now that we are nearing June. Can he play throw or not, can he hit or not. It has been enough time to get a honest view of this status I would think.
- Nicole - May 23, 2010 at 5:19 PM
Harper for the season:94-211 (.446). 29 HR 87 RBI, .981 slugging in 64 games. I've seen him live. There is NO other pick besides Harper. CSN plays in a very good league (wooden bats!) and he is insanely better than anybody else. His stats are – dare I say it – Ruthian. He broke the team record for HRs. Not the individual record, THE TEAM RECORD.
- Nicole - May 23, 2010 at 5:22 PM

The only other catcher on the 40-man is Chris Coste, and he's injured too. At this point we have to hope Nieves stays healthy and we don't have another Matt LeCroy moment.

just before the Nats take the field to start the game, a long instrument is played. Does anyone know what it is. Someone on Nats320 said it was Thunderstruck but that is not it.
- Anon and on - May 23, 2010 at 5:50 PM
English horn? Didgereedoo?
- NatinBeantown - May 23, 2010 at 6:34 PM
Nicole,It's actually sort of amazing he's only second in walks. Why on earth would you be pitching to him??
- Grandstander - May 23, 2010 at 6:50 PM
If you're talking about song they play after the "It all starts….RIGHT NOW" when they wave the flags and the Nats take the field, that is indeed Thunderstruck by AC/DC.

Chris Coste hurt his elbow at the end of March and was put on 15 Day DL……What is he doing now it is near June. My Guess he is sitting in Vera as a Bull Pen Catcher for Wong and Ross D….Why keep him on the 40 man if that is all he is doing?

- Scorekeeper - May 23, 2010 at 9:27 PM
Did anyone see Lugo kick dirt on Willingham as he went by him on the base paths after the walk off? I think he deserves an ear buzz the next time we pitch to him.
- The Great Unwashed - May 23, 2010 at 9:34 PM
I turned to the MLB Network right after Willingham's walkoff and the crawl across the bottom of the screen read, "Nats express interest in Oswalt." I'm just sayin'
- Anonymous - May 23, 2010 at 10:06 PM
Lugo deserves one in the earhole just on principle.
- janner33 - May 23, 2010 at 10:16 PM
@scorekeeper, yeah i saw that too… waited for a replay but they only showed Hammer after he had rounded 3rd…
- sec3 - May 23, 2010 at 10:25 PM
@unwashed–that's based on Ladson tweet that the Nats explicitly don't confirm beyond saying they're interested in lots of people, but they have a plan and they're sticking to it. See Kilgore's post on the subject for the quote.
- Cwj - May 23, 2010 at 10:45 PM
Lugo insulted the Nats tonight. Not good for a hitter on the worse team in baseball. Good thing the Nats are a classy club
- natsone_va - May 23, 2010 at 10:55 PM
Lugo is an A-hole.
- Wally - May 23, 2010 at 11:16 PM
DC Wonk @ 12:44: I agree that it is pretty remarkable that the two years that the Nats finish last, they are in position to draft such extraordinary prospects. As many have said, extraordinary prospects do not always turn into extraordinary pros, but both of these guys are more than just the best prospect in their particular draft. They each have some very compelling stories. And making it even better, neither draft was considered very strong, making the importance of being #1 (v. Anywhere else in the top 10) a huge advantage.
- Doc - May 23, 2010 at 11:20 PM
One bar of chin music wouldn't be enough for Lugo Pogo. I'd say we need a whole symphony of rock n' roll, including a riff in the @#&s, a couple of high notes behind the head, and a major drum roll at second base! NOBODY disses the Hammer!!!!
- natsfan1a - May 24, 2010 at 12:25 AM
Oh, geez. Here I was basking in the glow of witnessing the wins in person yesterday and today, and you had to go and bring up that moment. :-)—At this point we have to hope Nieves stays healthy and we don't have another Matt LeCroy moment.
- natsfan1a - May 24, 2010 at 12:28 AM
scorekeeper and janner, I missed that (maybe because I was jumping up and down and cheering and all), but kinda bush league if so. Yeah, maybe there could be some payback for him when we play the O's in June. Assuming Lugo's still with the team, that is…
- NatsNut - May 24, 2010 at 12:40 AM
1a, you need to go to more games. I'm just sayin…
- Cwj - May 24, 2010 at 12:57 AM
Good win though for the Nats. Congrats to Matt Capps for headlining the bullpen this season. He's been great and deserves some kudos on his 16 straight saves to begin the year heading into today's game. 16/17 ain't bad at all
- natsfan1a - May 24, 2010 at 1:10 AM
Well, if we leave out the exhibition game vs. the Sox, I *am* undefeated this year. ;-)—1a, you need to go to more games. I'm just sayin…

Also saw the lugo kick of dirt. What the heck was that?
- Anonymous - May 24, 2010 at 2:36 AM
Wow, I just watched the replay on the Nationals' official site. It's VERY obvious Mr. Coughedupa Lugo kicked the dirt on Josh on purpose.It's also nice to hear the commentary of the MASN crew, Rob and Jim, being objective, being bland and inoffensive, representing the only co-broadcast of a rivals game in the history of American sports. More than sickening, this collusive sports broadcasting is un-American.
- natsfan1a - May 24, 2010 at 11:38 AM
Seeing as how it's an off day, methinks that people need to get on over to Goessling's blog on the MASN site and vote for their fave moment from the Beltway series. Currently running away with the poll? The inside-the-parker. That's just wrong.

Re Harper, is anyone worried about the league Harper's playing in? A juco league? and giving $15M for a 17-year-old from a 3rd rate league who's employed the agent from hell, makes arrogant comments, and is a potential head case?
- N. Cognito - May 24, 2010 at 1:31 PM
Lugo's move was completely disrespectful and without class but deserves no on-field response.However, I would not object to an order of ribs.
- Dave - May 24, 2010 at 1:34 PM
@Anon 9:26 AM: No.Not a third-rate league. Best hitting prospect in recent memory.Cf. discussion above. He plays with a wooden bat in a well-respected league. I don't see how Rizz can avoid drafting him.
- NatsJack in Florida - May 24, 2010 at 1:37 PM
The "agent from hell" that you refer to has an excellent working relationship with Mike Rizzo and your comments on a 3rd rate league are way off base. The juco league he plays in is every bit as good as any of the mid major forums that 4 year schools play. He's playing with a wood bat and he's playing with guys who, on average, are 3 to 4 years older.His arrogant comments came after being hounded unmercifully for for the first game of a double header in which he did not hit a home run. He blasted 2 in the nite cap and got thrown out of the game after gunning down a guy from right field and and making a bow and blowing a kiss to the opposition. Those were his "arrogant comments".I'll take him in a heart beat.

- Dave - May 24, 2010 at 4:14 PM
@natsfan1a, thanks for the link. I voted. Of course, the fact that there's only one Orioles-related choice will cause the votes for Nats moments to split, which is what seems to be happening.
- natsfan1a - May 25, 2010 at 10:29 AM
You're welcome, Dave. Good point about the one O's choice splitting the vote (which hadn't occurred to me). BTW, the poll is still active at the Goessling blog, but it may take a few seconds to load. I think it stays active until the next live game broadcast.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Dzjeuls Constant Comment on Steroids
This is a great mid-afternoon wake-up tea with lots of aroma and a very warming sensation. Likely it will be better liked where there are cooler temperatures, but I think I'd like to make this into a cold tea at least once to see how the spices hold up. As a hot tea -- it is very good as a change of pace.

Middle Park
this wiki
Middle Park is a large public park in the GTA IV and GTA Chinatown Wars rendition of Liberty City, situated in the middle of Algonquin. Along with Star Junction and The Triangle, it is one of the well known neighborhoods in Algonquin and Liberty City.
Middle Park is an obvious play of New York City's Central Park, being a long strip of greenery filled with Trees and bordered by heavily urbanized areas influenced by neighborhoods in New York City that neighbor Central Park.
The park's boundaries are major thoroughfares, including (clockwise from the west) Frankfort Avenue to the west (bordering Middle Park West and Varsity Heights), Topaz Street to the north (bordering North Holland and East Holland), Columbus Avenue (bordering Lancaster and Middle Park East) and Nickel Street (bordering Star Junction). Quartz Street, which forms the border between Middle Park West and Varsity Heights, and Middle Park East and Lancaster, cuts across Middle Park; an arch is placed over the western end of the park's traverse.
Because of its proximity with the aforementioned neighborhoods, the park is an ideal recreational spot for local residents from all sides of the park (ranging from normal visitors to joggers and tai chi practitioners), and additionally serves as a tourist attraction, drawing in tourists to the area. As a result of its popularity, Middle Park is also a venue for street musicians, soapboxxers and homeless people.
Middle Park is the second largest of four large parks in Liberty City, Meadows Park being the largest, and Outlook Park and Welham Parkway being the smallest. Like Central Park, Middle Park is presumed to have been landscaped to seemingly appear natural; the park sports a large lake at the center, and features rockface cliffs at the northern ends of the park, as well as being the ultimate democratic place in the city.
According to the in-game TV documentary, A History of Liberty City, Middle Park was built in the 1850s to "provide a scenic backdrop for junkies to inject shit in their arms and to smoke weed". It was also built for businessmen to have their lunch in, for people to relax, take part in early morning taichi and for people to go "Gay Bashing".
Places of interest
While smaller in land area than Meadows Park, Middle Park boasts a variety of facilities and features matched with those found at Meadows Park. The centerpiece of the park include the lake (with an adjoining lakeside restaurant at the northern end) and a large terraced plaza fronting the lakefront at the southern end. The park also features a small garden at the southern end of the park, and a range of sculptures and statues on the southern half of the park. Other than that, the park offers the usual fare of lush greenspaces and footpaths.
The Libertonian is also situated within the park's boundaries, at the east side facing Columbus Avenue. The building is the only major structure to be located in the park, but is undergoing renovations as of the timeline of GTA IV, in 2008.
Being evidently based on New York City's Central Park, Middle Park is roughly similar to Central Park's design, featuring a heavily vegetated area with a lake being its main feature, but also sporting other prominent landmarks. The lake that serves as a central facet of the park is similar to Central Park's lake, but also extended further to the north, suggesting that the profile of the Central Park Reservoir was incorporated into the design of Middle Park's lake, resulting in the park featuring a lake that extends from north to south. The massive plaza fronting the park's lake is based on Central Park's Bethesda Terrace, while The Libertonian's position in Middle Park is similar to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's position in Central Park. Other spoofed landmarks include Central Park's Cleopatra's Needle, replicated in the form of an obelisk to the southeast that features hieroglyphic carvings, and the Maine Monument at Merchant's Gate (the main entrance to Central Park from Columbus Circle), which pylon was partially duplicated but its golden statue on top replaced by an angelic counterpart also used on certain tombstones in Liberty City's cemeteries.
Quartz Street, which traverse across the park lanes, is comparable to similar traverse streets in New York City that cut across the park north of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, including 79th Street and 86th Street. The arch over the western end of the traverse is similar to the Washington Square Arch at Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village, although the design of the game's rendition is significantly simplified and does not derive much of its design from the Washington Square Arch.
Middle Park is well connected to local subway services, with the aptly named North Park (at Topaz Street), West Park (at Frankfort Avenue) and East Park (at Columbus Avenue) Algonquin Inner Line stations within a short walking distance from the park's boundaries; one portal into East Park station is actually built into the southeastern tip of the park itself. The Quartz West station at the Algonquin Outer Line also serves the park.
Bus stops are situated west of the park for the bus network, but however, there is no bus network as it has been cut in the final version for unknown reasons.
- A rare glitch (only works on PS3) is that sometimes If you go to Middle Park, you will see that all of the land, including the bridge, will be gone, only leaving the trees floating in mid air. You will hear yelling and shouting of pedestrians falling through the map around the area, and cars will still be spawning in Middle Park, leaving them falling through the map. Cars will continue to be making a turn onto the bridge of the park even when the bridge is not there.
- The park features a penis-like sculpture just west of its terraced plaza (a 2007 work entitled "Le Knobelisk"), effectively overlooking the plaza itself. The sculpture may be destroyed repeatedly, including a case in a mission in GTA IV, "Meltdown", when a car plows into the sculpture and crashes into the plaza.
- The hourglass-like shape of Middle Park's massive lake in GTA IV has led some observers to point out that the lake is shaped similarly to an alien when viewed overhead or viewed through the map, the lake's northern island filling in as the "alien's eye".
- The lake also appears to be a fetus.
- Prostitutes can be found near the lake docks, as well as under bridge structures. The park's prostitutes can also be found in smaller numbers during the daylight hours. But be careful, as scaring them and other pedestrains with headlights of your vehicle will cause them to run away.
- There were 83 murders in Middle Park in 2007.
- In The Ballad of Gay Tony, if Luis Lopez gets too drunk and blacks out, he may wake up on the island in the middle of the lake.
- Boats like the Squalo were originally in Middle Park, but were removed for unknown reasons. Maybe the size of the lakes were too small for driving boats. But with using cheats, the Jetmax can be spawned and used in the lake.
- The lake in Middle Park resembles an alien shape.

I love this show and wondered if anyone else is watching this season? I recently downloaded their book Becoming Sister Wives and honestly don't know how they do it.
I've seen some episodes but not all. Have started watching the new season though. Do I not remember right, or is there a wife missing? I remember a short blond woman? When she talked, she barely moved her lips ... just a quirky thing I notice about some people. Who was she (again, I have not seen all episodes so maybe she wasn't a wife?) When they lived in Utah, they all (wives, kids, everyone) lived in one huge mega house, right? Why did they move to Nevada? And uhm, I'm kinda on the side of why does Meri need a 7 bedroom house. She has the one daughter who will be going to college in 1-2 years. Okay, Meri needs a room, daughter gets a room, have a guest room so really why can't you live with a 3-4 bedroom house? And Meri is the first wife, correct? So she kinda had to go into all the future marriges, so what ever made her agree to that to begin with? Does she have a family history with people having the Sister Wives? I never saw the first episodes at all so how did they ever get to this point? Agree with you that I don't know how they do it, that is what has sucked me in to wanting to watch now. Okay they have been living this way for years before this show, but how did it even start with the second wife, you know?
I don't know about a short blond woman, unless you're thinking of Mona, the realtor? She's short and has blond hair. But she's been on the most recent season as well. The family moved to Nevada because they were being investigated by their local police for polygamy. So they packed up and moved to Vegas to get away from that and so that they could live more open. Meri is the first wife. Growing up, her family was also a polygamist family, so she's been surrounded by it her whole life. Janelle, the second wife, came in pretty quickly after Meri and Cody were first married. I read their book, which an interesting quick read. It tells about how they all came together and how they manage their lives. I watch the show because they fascinate me. I don't know how they do it and their kids (especially the older ones since we see more of them) seem very well adjusted and like all good kids. Robin can get on my nerves though.
I like all the wives... I don't like Kody. It will be interesting to see if Meri goes for in vitro or surrogacy. Seeing her daughter about the issue made me want Meri to just say yes to Robin.
I love/hate this show. This blog is pretty hard on the family, but it is interesting. It mentions how the family declared bankruptcy a few times, is pretty hard on Robyn, etc. etc. I really, really don't like Kody. I don't like Robyn either, but I like her more when it's her and one or more of the wives and Kody isn't around. And while I understand how hard it is for Meri to not have the tonnes of kids she wanted, when money is tight, why DOES she need a bigger house? There's Janelle, who has generally been one of the breadwinners, trying to make her house more cost-effective, and Meri's got her heart set on a wet bar. It just doesn't seem especially fair. Christine is adorable. I wish she was more quirky like the first season, where she claimed toasters kill more people than sharks, hence toasting bread in the oven.
Meri seems close to a nervous breakdown to me. And Kody can be cruel - re: their discussion about how it's her choice about trying in vitro and then he states that he's going to have more children in any case was unnecessary (IMO).
I find Kody to be an insensitive turd. Things he says and does and how he just bushes mistakes aside. I don't understand how 4 seemingly intelligent women would fall for someone so juvenile.
Like some of you, I can't stand Kody, I don't understand what these women see in him; or why they would be attracted to the lifestyle he espouses. The only wife/family who might "benefit" would be the legal one. I hope that the other women have plans in place to protect themselves and their children.
I can't stand Kody either.....I find most of the TLC shows have fathers that I can't stand (aka Little People, Big World).
I don't like Jim Bob... wholesome family values or not I am interested in the older kids and how they are opinionated on whether they will be polygamist or not. I love Madison... she has a great head on her shoulders.
Did anyone else see Sunday's show? While the Dargers have their own perceived issues I've read comments about (wives are "stepford-y," Joe is creepy and rules with an iron fist, etc.), did they ever succeed in making the Brown clan look ridiculous. I loved, LOVED how Meri & Christine were kind of giddy about how organized Joe Darger was. Anything to get Kody's nose out of joint. He doesn't help matters by appearing as ineffective and petulant as possible when all the adults are checking out the vacation home's floor plan discussing bedrooms, and he pipes in with, "Let's decide which kitchen we eat out of!" I mean... I wonder if TLC is kicking themselves for going with the Brown family when they could have had an attractive, well-oiled machine in the Dargers? Or maybe the big-wigs at TLC figure the chaos is more interesting.

Cubs return home for rematch with Pirates
Jackson faces Morton 11 days after starters battled in Bucs' win
It's only been a week since the Pirates took three out of four from the Cubs by a combined score of 17-11, but this time around, the Cubs might have an advantage: they're home.
Chicago is 15-14 at Wrigley Field this season and 15-26 away from it. Although that trend hasn't held up in a small sample size against Pittsburgh, the Cubs will be happy to be home following a 10-game road trip, especially with the off-day on Thursday.
"Over the last two or three weeks, we've been playing pretty good baseball and bounced back," said Cubs manager Rick Renteria, whose team went .500 on its road trip with a 6-1 win over Miami on Wednesday. "We keep chipping away, keep battling. The relief corps has done a good job.
"We were able to put together a pretty good run at home [June 3-8]. We've been playing pretty good, but we haven't been able in some instances to close them out. I don't think it's anything I concern myself with, other than making sure we continue to fight and play the game."
Charged with keeping the Cubs in it Friday is right-hander Edwin Jackson (5.11 ERA, 1.50 WHIP), who has already faced the Pirates three times this season, more than he's seen any other team. He hasn't exactly fared well in those games, however, allowing 11 earned runs in 16 innings (6.19 ERA) along with a 1.75 WHIP and .300 opponents' batting average.
The most recent of those outings was two turns ago on June 9 in a 6-2 Pirates win. Jackson allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks in six innings. He also struck out eight. Andrew McCutchen, the owner of a .462 (12-for-26) lifetime average against Jackson, tagged him for a homer and RBI double.
"I just have to do a better job of executing pitches and keeping the ball down," Jackson said after the game. "[McCutchen is] strong enough to where even if he gets beat, he has enough power to still hit the ball opposite field to the short porch and hit it well."
Jackson's opponent is a familiar one: Charlie Morton. The righty has started for the Bucs all three times they faced Jackson, all Pittsburgh wins. Morton has pitched to a 2.84 ERA and 1.05 WHIP in those three contests, most recently seven innings of one-run ball on June 9.
His last time out, Morton limited the Marlins to two runs on five hits and three walks over seven innings Saturday.
"The curveball wasn't as sharp and tight as it was last time [vs. the Cubs]," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "But he was able to get the ball where he needed to in a lot of different situations to get away from big innings."
Pirates: McCutchen, Marte better since Polanco's debut
It's only been a little over a week since Pittsburgh mega-prospect Gregory Polanco debuted, but his impact is plain to see: a .378/.417/.467 slash line with five RBIs and one game-winning homer, while playing every inning for the Pirates.
To more fully measure his impact, however, it's worth noting what those around him have done in that week-plus. As a team, the Pirates have averaged 4.7 runs per game entering Friday, though they are 5-4 in that time. That is more than half a run better than their 4.1 average on the season.
Polanco's fellow outfielders, McCutchen and Starling Marte, have been better, too. Marte, who hits second behind leadoff man Polanco, has raised his average to .262 from .240 with a 16-for-42 (.381) stretch. McCutchen, meanwhile, is hitting .368 out of the three-hole during that stretch to raise his average to .317 from .309 before Polanco arrived.
Cubs: Renteria not publicly concerned with potential subtractions
This time of year can be an ambiguous one for teams struggling to compete -- like the 30-40 Cubs -- because the July 31 Trade Deadline is rapidly approaching and front offices often decide to sell pieces in an effort to build for the future.
The Cubs have been sellers the first two years of the Theo Epstein-Jed Hoyer Era, and that could again be the case this summer. They traded names like Alfonso Soriano, Matt Garza, Carlos Marmol and Scott Feldman in July 2013, a year after parting with Paul Maholm, Ryan Dempster and Geovany Soto.
Renteria downplayed the significance of potential trades.
"All clubs go through that, whether through injury or whatever," Renteria said of losing players. "I can't concern myself with things I can't control, and obviously I can't foresee the future. I know when we come to the ballpark, these guys are going to give us a really good effort and give us a chance for a victory."
Worth noting:
• This is the last Cubs homestand during which fans can cast in-stadium All-Star Game ballots. The last day for voting at Wrigley is June 26.
• The first 10,000 fans in attendance Friday will get an Ernie Banks bobblehead.

Yea! I love her dress too. I kind of wish my baby girl was younger, and that we were neighbors, so we could get Ivy's hand-me-downs. :) Such a beautiful girl.
Oh yay!! Big Sister has just taken off too.
She's so stylin'! Love the outfit and her precious expression on the second photo :).
God bless her! She makes me ache for another one :)
way to go Ivy!!
Yay X 2! Ivy's a walker!You used Picnik! So proud of you both! ;)
Oh my goodness. I cannot believe that she is up and walking.and gorgeous as always.
Go Ivy go!
Ok, it's milestones like these that really make me want to have kids. How awesome. Can't wait to see her again now!
Ha, before I noticed she was walking or even read your post, I thought, "Oh, Ivy's wearing a pretty Hanna!" I cannot believe she is walking!!!
Awwww, I knew this day was coming especially with her escape routine at BlogHer :) She is so adorable, Steph!
She looks like a pro already! Peabody's going to be a week or two behind her, I think. Although I'm not really in a hurry because he's already too fast for me to keep up just on his hands and knees. As always, she's gorgeous and dressed to the nines. Girls are so much fun!
Yay Ivy! She'll be strutting down the runway in no time.-Abby
She looks adorable in that dress. Look at the confidence on her face. She is miss priss walking. I can't believe it!

She's walking!! Yay!I loooove that dress. Where do you get such pretty girlie dresses for Ivy?
Yeah! She's walking! I remember when the Tongginator first took off, tears streamed down my face. Then again, she was almost 19 months at the time, so they were tears of relief mixed with joy. Heh. (And we love Hanna at our house, too.)
My Mom got this one at the Hanna Andersson outlet. I keep my eyes out for cute things- and love to shop resales!Steph

Watch "Wake up Georgie boy" Email George Osbourne Campaign
Do you ever hear the exasperated cry "Its not about birds !! Its about people !!
If the airport is built here the price of my house will fall through the floor ! ….. Generations of our family have lived and worked here for years, our great grandparents are buried in the local Church. Moving away will mean breaking the family apart, changing doctors, losing friends, my children will have to move school I will have to find a new job! …. I don't know If I can cope?? All of this and everyone is shouting save the birds, save the birds, what about the people don't we matter??
If Government decide after its consultation that an airport somewhere needs a new runway or we do need a brand new airport in the Thames Estuary or elsewhere, then, a community somewhere will have to go through all the disruption and uncertainty of blight, selling up, moving away and starting again….. Yes some will be compensated by having their properties purchased .. generally the prices paid are about 10% over market value but the level of that compensation will never cover the loss and by the time the property is valued it has already dropped in price, after all its already dropped just talking about the consultation!!
Government know and expect all this they include it in the calculations. Our whole economy and way of life is built on expansion, growth and profit and has been for 100s of years. We monitor and try to predict growth down to 3 decimal places.. it a fixation !.
Government expect communities under threat to shout… Don't build it here !! … Why don't you build elsewhere!! Its called Nimbyism (Not In My Back Yard) If we are labelled NIMBYs our voice is discounted straight away. Every potential site for development of any kind has NIMBY's its a natural reaction to change. Some even get carried away with their arguments and are labelled BANANAs. (Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anyone).!
So where does that leave us ? what sort of defence should we adopt ? we hear you ask !
We have one big advantage over Government or a developer …. We know exactly what is here that would make the idea of building an airport "Pie in the sky" and we can you shouting out ..Yes !!! … The Richard Montgomery …. The LNG plant … The aviation fuel depot (BP) … The Grade One listed buildings …. The grade one farmland…. and yes you guessed it ….. The Birds !!!
350,000 of them that fly here every year, and have done so for the last million years and will continue to do so for the next million years. In fact its so special for birds here that the european Community have declared it a special place for birds… The RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) consider The Greater Thames Estuary to be the 2nd most important place in the country for Birds. And don't forget the RSPB already have 1.2 million members saying the same message.!!! Their Moto gives it all away "For Bird For People Forever"
Let not forget that! … Lets celebrate it! … Lets ask government to develop here with the birds and wildlife in mind!. Develop jobs here with the birds and wild life in mind! Expand our Green Tourism, Green Jobs. They have made a start, probably unwittingly, by awarding the Thames Estuary a share of the £7.5 million to create more of what we already have "Fantastic Habitats" for …..Birds…. If you get a chance visit Cliffe pools and see for yourself the improvements already made.
This is what Salt lane Looked like before the Aviation consultation in 2002.
