The following are ALL rules, proposed rules, and notices (chronologically) published in the Federal Register relating to 7 CFR 1794 after this date.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2014-00220 RIN 0575-AC56 DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, Rural Business-Cooperative Service, Rural Utilities Service, Rural Housing Service, Farm Service Agency Notice of proposed rulemaking. Comments on the proposed rule must be received on or before April 7, 2014. Comments on the reporting and recordkeeping aspects of this rule in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 continue through April 7, 2014. 7 CFR Parts 1703, 1709, 1710, 1717, 1720, 1721, 1724, 1726, 1737, 1738, 1739, 1740, 1753, 1774, 1775, 1779, 1780, 1781, and 1782 Rural Development, a mission area within the U.S. Department of Agriculture comprised of the Rural Housing Service (RHS), Rural Business-Cooperative Service (RBS) and Rural Utilities Service (RUS), hereafter referred to as the Agency, is proposing to unify and update environmental policies and procedures covering all Agency programs by consolidating two existing Agency regulations that implement the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and other applicable environmental requirements. These rules supplement the regulations of the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ), the regulations of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), associated environmental statutes, Executive orders and Departmental Regulations. The majority of the proposed changes relate to the categorical exclusion provisions in the Agency's procedures for implementing NEPA. These proposed changes are intended to better align the Agency's regulations, particularly for those actions listed as categorical exclusions, to the Agency's current activities and recent experiences and to the CEQ's Memorandum for Heads of Federal Departments and Agencies entitled "Establishing, Applying, and Revising Categorical Exclusions under the National Environmental Policy Act" issued on November 23, 2010, and to consolidate the provisions of the Agency's two current NEPA rules at 7 CFR parts 1794 and 1940, subpart G.

Economic opportunity
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

A colleague was remembering his days working in a Chicago restaurant, and the first thing the chef would say each day: "Let's look in the refrigerator and see what we're going to cook today."
It's a creative culinary challenge regularly faced in some restaurants and trotted out on cooking shows. Chefs get a mystery basket and must transform the foodstuffs inside into a memorable meal.
It's the same thing you face when you return home each night, right? Except for many of us, the contents of our refrigerator — a few eggs, some leftover rotisserie chicken and bottled condiments — are not always inspiring.
In the hands of culinary pros, though, they become intriguing dishes, ranging from soups to pastas. Which is just what happened when we challenged culinary pros to create a dish using the following ingredients and a few kitchen staples.
6 eggs
A jar of mayonnaise
A jar of mustard
A bottle of hot sauce
A chunk of butter
Half a yellow onion
Leftover rotisserie chicken
Leftover hunk of bread
For crafty and creative recipes from our culinary pros see Cooking Challenge Recipes.
Let these ideas from the pros inspire you, give your creativity free rein and make delicious.

Fourteen year old American Joe Roberts on Saturday won an all or nothing dash to the finish on Saturday in the first of two Red Bull MotoGP Rookies races on the Brno circuit in the Czech Republic.
It was the young rider's first podium in the competition and he won in front of Arthur Sissis of Australia and Tomas Vavrous of the Czech Republic.
The race was a two-part affair after the original start was red flagged when rain started to fall, calling in the riders who were out on slicks. The 14-lap race was then restarted after riders had changed tires and all that remained was a five-lap race to the finish on the tricky and undulating traditional MotoGp circuit.
The American rider went into the lead in the shortened race and in the third lap and charged ahead on the rain-drenched circuit. It was only Sissis that could stay with him and the Australian looked like taking the glory. But Roberts engaged in a tight battle for the win in the closing stages of the race and managed to slip by Sissis just before the home straight, picking up enough drive to propel him over the finish line. The wet race was also good for Sissis as he now regains control of the overall standings in what is a two-rider competition between him and Lorenzo Baldassarri of Italy for the title. Baldassarri finished in sixth.
Joe Roberts said the result had turned around after his weekend. He said he wasn't able to find his rhythm the first time they were out on the track and was in last place. "I wasn't happy that it rained but then on the sighting lap I realized there was quite a lot of grip. I just had to go for it. Arthur passed me at the last corner but as I saw him go wide I had the chance to cut it tight and go for the line."
Riders have just two more races, one of which is tomorrow Sunday on the Brno circuit, to conclude the season. Sissis goes into the second race at Brno with a 4-point lead on the 14-year-old Italian rider. All riders in the competition, which grooms and prepares riders for a career in to racing, are onboard identical KTM 125 machines.
Results Race One (of two Brno)

I've got the double. It came with hooks that are pretty poor quality, one of them bent with "light abuse", two kids in the hammock. I replaced the hooks with steel caribiners (from Amazon) rated for heavy weight.
If you want a real hammock tent, try Hennessy Hammocks. I have had one for years and love it. They cost a bit more than $20 - but you get what you pay for. A $20 hammock is guaranteed to last until it ships to you, and that's about it.
TavisB wrote:At 6', would I be too tall for the netted version? I've been searching online and can't seem to find an answer.
I have the netted version and I am 5'10". I fit in it with room to spare. I usually throw a sleeping pad in there and then I can still throw my shoes past my feet with room to spare so I think it could handle up to about 6'5"
All these comments about the "double" model not being able to handle the weight of two people. A double bed isn't meant for two people, either...
Thanks for the response 3sunsets and doughboy! I think I will go with a double this time around.
Yoooder wrote: ... but will say hammock camping is bomb compared to taking a tent. No need for flat ground, just have to find trees that are within the right distance. ...
I'm sure everyone knows this, but make sure that you try it out at home before relying on a hammock for your only sleep location. I strung up the hammock when we went camping over July 4th thinking it would be cooler than inside the tent. It was, but I just could not get to sleep in the hammock. At about 1:30am, I threw in the towel and went into the tent to sleep on top of the sleeping bag. It may have been improperly suspended, or a matter of finding the right position, but I was in no mood to dink with it any more at that hour. To be fair, there were also a few mosquitoes and I did not have the netted version. Glen

I purchased one the last time they were offered. As for the •Marine-grade tie down line is included with threaded quick links, the metal hooks/threaded quick links/carribiners(sp)on mine where missing. Would I be able to have those sent to me and how would I go about that or am I just out of luck and have to go purchase them at a hardware store? Thanks
Can I use slap straps or Atlus straps with these hammocks?

As per the video shown, it appears I also recieved no ropes..

i actually keep a hammock like this in my truck. what i usually do is find a tree, park about 15~20 feet away and hang it using ratchet straps. the trick is getting the strap to stay on the tree if there is no available branch. takes me about 3 minutes to set up.
I bought one awhile back. Still in good condition after being kept outside all the time..
In Alaska these are called Saccus prandium nam ursus.
Would Skyhooks work?
Trees sold separately.
I usually hang them while I am on alcohol. If you mean what type of surface should the hammock be hung, you can sink two treated posts into the ground and use those.
jmk06d wrote:Could someone tell me if the Double Hammock comes with hooks or carabiners? I bought the netted hammock last time it was available and it came with ropes and metal hooks is that so for the double?
Hi There... these come with threaded quick links for attaching the hammock to the straps or rigging system of your choice. Thanks!
Anyone know if the mosquito net is fully removable?
cambill wrote:Anyone know if the mosquito net is fully removable?
Yes the net is fully removable.
I've gone around measuring trees on my property because I know I'm too lazy to put up posts. I have trees that are about 8-9 feet from eachother, and I have trees that are 13-14 feet from eachother. Would the netted one work for either of those? I know it says 8'9" but I don't know what that translates to for minimum/maximum tree distance.
beachrights wrote:Bought one the last time these came up- good quality and comfortable. They do stretch so adjustments need to be made. As for weight- have had 2 adults in it no issues- no hanky panky is advisable though!
We had two good sized adults in mine this weekend. (non netted) I made custom whoopie slings for it and the whole rig held very well.

so you can take it all the way off and pack it away somewhere until you neeed it?

Is that a special rig for doing it in a hammock? Interesting...
Is it comfortable??
I have an Eno double that I paid a ton more for and am quite jealous. I'm making my girlfriend buy one, though. For new hammockers, I'll say a good suspension system will make your hammocking much, much better. Since Yukon doesn't offer anything, recommend Eno's slap straps and, if you're a bigger person (as I am) nab their Atlas strap system. It makes put up and tear down a breeze.

if it came without something that was supposed to be included, please email our customer service team at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Thanks for the recommendation on the Atlas straps.

Our manufacturer friend was up all night and didn't explain the way he intended. You can unzip the mosquito net to an extent that you can lay on the hammock without the net covering you however it is not fully removable.
Great find! Already own one and has lasted me years, definitely jumping on this.
ObsessiveCompulsive wrote:Our manufacturer friend was up all night and didn't explain the way he intended. You can unzip the mosquito net to an extent that you can lay on the hammock without the net covering you however it is not fully removable.
Naw, you flip it over and sleep on the non-netted side.
I ended up with two of the bugnet version after the last sale (long story). Set one up the other night and had a great night's sleep. You do need to protect your underside from mosquitos, and I had a hard time getting to the diagonal sleep position, but I slept well nonetheless. Nothing like a hammock! Haven't slept in it more than one night due to rain. :-/ Next up, Woot, please: hammock tarps!
I bought a military surplus one many many years ago - canvas hammock with netting and a nylon roof. Vietnam style (supposedly). Fun to have but no fun to sleep in because you could not turn diagonal... but I digress.. I had no trees suitable so I got 2 sections of square steel tube, 2 feet long each, sized to fit over a 4x4 post and cemented them in the yard on either side of a patio that was there. The 4x4 PT posts (10 footers) slipped in and viola... hammock hanging location. I used eye bolts with "dog" chain for suspension...each link of chain is an adjustment point, and it's definately going to last outside. I had to add a cross piece of wood to each to hold up the netting, but a 2x2 worked fine. It's been almost 20 years and the posts are still standing, the eye bolts are in great shape and the chain is solid, albeit rusty. I set the steel flush with the ground so if I wanted in the future to remove the posts and not put something in I could still mow the lawn over them. If not for the hellacious mosquitos at my new house I'd have done the same thing here when we moved..(probabily would have taken the 4x4s with me too..)
Hey woot!! When is it going to ship, I needed it for a backpacking trip that's in only 5 days. Is there anyway to change the priority of my shipping after the purchase?

i'm afraid there's no way to modify the priority of the shipping post-purchase. it can take up to 5 business days for your order to process & ship (usually less). it appears that tomorrow would be the 5th business day, if i'm looking at my calendar correctly. it's possible (likely, in fact) that this item was drop-shipped by a vendor, has already shipped, and we're just waiting for said vendor to update their tracking info. i suggest emailing firstname.lastname@example.com for complete order details. as a lowly moderator, i don't have that specific info.
my doubble came with ropes and carabiners
will you be getting any more one person hammoks in stock?
cdewmart wrote:will you be getting any more one person hammoks in stock?
keep an eye on our sales! we run hammock sales quite often. i'm afraid Woot's wacky, spontaneous nature means we can't broadcast specific dates for a sale. it's one of our tactics for forcing you to come back and spend time with us.
Just in case these come back on sale and anyone is on the fence, I've had a very positive experience with Yukon Outfitters. I got the one with the netting. A test hang in the back yard gave me confidence to try my first hammock camping trip. Had to set up in the dark, and the instructions weren't clear on how high to hang the separate support line for the netting. I guessed (wrongly) that it needed to go higher than the hammock line to keep the netting off my face. The hammock naturally sagged, putting too much stress on the tabs holding the netting, and they ripped. My fault, right? An e-mail to Yukon Outfitters drew a responses withing MINUTES offering me a new hammock if I'd send the old one back so their quality control folks could check it out and try to improve the design. I was pleasantly surprised, and the replacement is everything I could hope for. Compared to hammocks costing 2-3 times as much, this is a Woot! of a deal.

Mexico has a tradition of pledging oath to Satan, and it's a requirement that every president must take.This information comes from government oficial and big drug traffickers. La Santa Muerte is just another satanic religion. It is a big movement in mexico that is becoming more trendy in novela studios and television stations. Where em I heading with this? Colosio wasn't one to pledge oath to satan, as he was a Christian. What looked to be a sure win for him, he was warned that if he wanted to be president, he would have to take the oath. He refused and was killed. I'm sure this story touches on one of the reasons that lead to his assasinatio, but satanist are running the country and is the reason why mexico is what it is. Again, this information comes from ppl who were at some point involved in drugs or government. it's a far fetched story and not many come to terms of the time we're living in. ..
According to the "CIA - The World Factbook", 95% of Mexicans are Roman Catholic. Pledging to Satan is hardly ever done and the drug problem is partly because of Mexico and partly because of the US, who sends illegal weapons into Mexico and purchases 90% of the Mexican drugs.
Next time, you should get informed before commenting!
excuse me, 75% are Roman Catholic

so it does support R600 3D huh?
For Ubuntu does it mean I just use x-swat ppa and 2.6.32 kernel and I will get 3D acceleration for R600?
Phoronix: Linux 2.6.32 Kernel Released
Just as planned, Linux 2.6.32-rc8 was the last test release and the final Linux 2.6.32 kernel is now available as of last night. The Linux 2.6.32 kernel brings improvements to the Btrfs file-system, ATI R600/700 KMS + 3D support, Intel DRM improvements (improved power management), other DRM changes, VGA Arbitration, virtualization improvements, and much more. The Linux 2.6.32 kernel release announcement can be found at LKML.org while an extensive list of 2.6.32 changes can be found at KernelNewbies.org. We have already published Linux 2.6.32 kernel benchmarks (with special interest towards the EXT4 performance drop). The Linux 2.6.33 kernel merge window will soon open and a good number of changes will be pushed into the next kernel release...
so it does support R600 3D huh?
For Ubuntu does it mean I just use x-swat ppa and 2.6.32 kernel and I will get 3D acceleration for R600?
Um................ I think if you just upgrade your kernel, all RadeonHD 2000/3000/4000 chipsets will get OpenGL acceleration. Kernel 2.6.32 comes with all the necessary DRM modules.
But I could be wrong.
Reading the KernelNewbies page for the new kernel, there's an interesting piece I haven't seen mentioned anywhere else:

Never mind. It does work. I don't know why the ppa didn't give me all the mesa updates at first, but now I'm enjoying 3D accel. on my card .

That is quite interesting. All of the Liquor Barn store selections I have seen mention neither Stitzel-Weller, nor that it is 1991 distillate. Even though I am sure their store selections are similar to the regular JPS18, the change (or lack) of information has kept me from picking up a bottle.
Have you had a regular release JPS18 where you can comment on the differences between it and the store selection?

This astrology site says,
"...there are seven days of the week and seven planets and each planet rules or is lord of one day: Sunday, the Sun; Monday, the Moon; Tuesday, Mars; Wednesday, Mercury; Thursday, Jupiter; Friday, Venus; and Saturday, Saturn...
The origin of the names of the days are explicitly planetary in medieval Latin: dies dominici (Sunday, the lord's day), die Lune, die Martis, die Mercuri, die Jovis, die Veneris, die Saturni.
In English the Teutonic equivalents of the Greek and Latin gods have been used for some of the names of the days, i.e. Tuesday is Tiw's day, the Teutonic god of war; Wednesday is Wotan's day; Thursday is Thor's day; Friday is Frigg's day..."
Not everybody likes this system, of course. Your mileage may vary.
Now if he wuz a dog instead, it would be much easier to undertand: Every dog has his day.

(AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez) Saints maul Raiders, improve to 5-5 by sheldon mickles| Advocate sportswriter Nov. 26, 2012 Comments OAKLAND, Calif. — In need of one more victory to push their record to .500 for the first time this season, the New Orleans Saints heeded the warnings of interim coach Joe Vitt this week. Throughout the week of preparation, Vitt reminded the Saints that they would be facing an Oakland Raiders' team that defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers and nearly upset the Atlanta Falcons on the road earlier in the season. Vitt also knew the Saints, who were only 1-3 away from home this season, were going to be traveling across the country to play the banged-up Raiders. But the Saints came out Sunday with two touchdowns in the first 11 minutes — one on offense and one on defense — and kept the pedal down throughout the day in a 38-17 rout of the Raiders. After starting the season 0-4, the Saints finally climbed out of the hole with their third straight victory and fifth win in six games to even their record at 5-5 heading into a rugged three-game stretch that includes games with the San Francisco 49ers, Atlanta Falcons and New York Giants. "I said it last week and I'll say it again," Vitt said. "It's a tribute to those players in the locker room that at 0-4 they stuck together, worked hard every day, never pointed fingers and just continued to try to get better every single day. And it's paying dividends now." It wasn't all good as far as Vitt was concerned, however, after the Saints committed 11 penalties for 109 yards — both season-highs. Included was a taunting penalty on running back Mark Ingram, who pointed to a Raiders' defender at the end of a 27-yard TD run. "We got the taunting (call), and the needless penalties are something that we're going to have to correct and correct quickly," Vitt said. Still, there was plenty to be pleased about for the long flight home. Drew Brees threw for 219 yards and three TDs — two to wide receiver Lance Moore — and free safety Malcolm Jenkins returned an interception 55 yards for a touchdown. The Saints also rushed for 153 yards, their second-highest total of the season. It marked the third consecutive game that the Saints, who just a couple of weeks ago ranked last in the league, reached triple digits after doing it once in their first seven games. "It's been a journey. … It's been an uphill battle to be .500," said tight end Jimmy Graham, who caught a 1-yard pass from Brees for the Saints' first TD. "I never thought I would be so happy to be .500 in my entire career. We're excited because things are moving the right way for us." The offense and defense worked together to get off to a 14-0 lead in the first 11 minutes with the defense forcing the Raiders (3-7) to punt on their first two possessions — including a three-and-out on the second series. In between, Brees and the offense had a solid start. He led a 10-play, 80-yard drive that was capped by the 1-yard TD to a wide-open Graham after the Saints gashed the Raiders' defense for gains of 14, 16 and 14 yards on their first three snaps. The second and third plays set the tone when Ingram and Pierre Thomas combined for 30 rushing yards to set up the passing game. Brees, who hit on 20 of 27 passes for 219 yards with three TDs and no interceptions and had a passer rating of 134.6, was 5-of-6 on the drive. After forcing the two punts on the Raiders' first two series, the Saints' defense scored a touchdown of its own when Jenkins jumped in front on a Carson Palmer pass for tight end Brandon Myers and took it back 55 yards. "There was a little bit of a miscommunication between Brandon and I, and that's something that can't happen," said Palmer, who was 22-of-40 for 312 yards. "He did a good job of jumping inside on the route and I should have done a better job of placing the ball. He (Jenkins) made a good play, but obviously, that's one that I'd like to have back." It was the first interception for Jenkins since he had two in a Dec. 12, 2010 game with the St. Louis Rams, returning one for a 96-yard TD. The Saints' 32nd-ranked defense actually came up with interceptions on back-to-back possessions by the Raiders. Strong safety Roman Harper also came up with one that glanced off Myers' shoulder in the end zone. That ended a scoring threat even though the Raiders ran eight plays in the Saints' red zone. The Saints put the game away with two touchdowns — one to end the first half and one to start the second half, which pushed their lead to 28-7 less than a minute into the third period. Brees ended a 90-yard drive with a 38-yard TD pass to Moore, who easily got behind cornerback Michael Huff with 48 seconds left until halftime. Then, rookie running back Travaris Cadet, who was filling in as a return man because Darren Sproles had some swelling in his surgically-repaired left hand, started the second half with a 75-yard kickoff return. On the first play from scrimmage, Ingram, who rushed for 67 yards for the second straight week, bounced outside and went in untouched from 27 yards out for a three-touchdown lead with 14:43 left in the third. The only thing Ingram did wrong was point back at Raiders free safety Matt Giordano — which drew a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. From there, the Saints cruised as Brees threw a 15-yard TD to Moore after the Raiders' Sebastian Janikowski kicked a 40-yard field goal and Garrett Hartley nailed a 47-yard field goal for the Saints. After that, the only question was whether the Saints' defense would hold an opponent to fewer than 400 yards for the first time this season. The Raiders spoiled that with a 93-yard drive and Palmer's 3-yard TD pass to Juron Kriner, giving them 404 total yards. "We're on our way," Brees said. "Had you told us or anybody after 0-4 that we would be looking at 5-5 at some point, a lot of people might have said that was unrealistic. But here we are." Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

UNICEF and Special Olympics work to create "Inclusive Communities for Children with Intellectual Disabilities" in Eastern Kazakhstan
Timothy P. Shriver and UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake signed a global memorandum of understanding on 27 June 2011 strengthening ties between Special Olympics and UNICEF
Astana, Kazakhstan: UNICEF and Special Olympics have formed an official national partnership in Kazakhstan to create inclusive communities for children with intellectual disabilities. The project, designed to focus its efforts on eastern Kazakhstan, will bring a series of comprehensive services to children with intellectual disabilities, their families and the wider community in a concerted effort to ensure full implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). The agreement further strengthens ties between the two organizations and will engage local and central government departments, civil society, and a range of development organizations active in disability programming throughout Kazakhstan. The project, titled "Creating Inclusive Communities for children with Intellectual Disabilities" will include programming in the following areas:
• Early childhood development (ECD) initiatives;• Direct family outreach and education;• Inclusive sports for children with and without intellectual disabilities;• Direct health services and interventions for children with intellectual disabilities;• Clinical Training for medical professionals on specialized disability care;• Partnership development with local government and non-governmental organizations to advance health, child protection and advocacy for children with intellectual disabilities; • Public awareness campaign to sensitize the community as to rights and abilities of children with intellectual disabilities;• Full integration of children with intellectual disabilities in community-based institutions and services.
"Children with intellectual disabilities are one of the most marginalized population sub-sets in the world. This innovative project with Special Olympics promises to serve as a model that can be further enhanced and presented, as part of our shared commitment to strengthening communities in support children with disabilities through inclusive practice. The partnership offers a unique opportunity for local government and NGOs to directly engage with children with disabilities, parents and caregivers. It will help make the statement that children with disabilities have the same rights as all other children, entitled to adequate health care, access to services, education and to live in a community that not only protects them, but engages them to participate fully," said Jun Kukita, UNICEF Representative in Kazakhstan.
"We are most grateful for the support and continued leadership of UNICEF Kazakhstan. Together, our two organizations can work to demonstrate that inclusive communities can indeed be a reality for children with intellectual disabilities and their parents and caregivers. Moreover, we are excited to bring this partnership and our focus on inclusion to a wider community, including to children without intellectual disabilities, medical professionals, local industry, the media and the general population to highlight the abilities and rights of our most vulnerable children. We are keen to focus on the eastern part of the country, where we know this programming can have a sustained and positive impact on our athletes, and their families" said Olga Bakhareva, National Director of Special Olympics Kazakhstan.
UNICEF and Special Olympics share a global partnership designed to advance the rights and abilities of children with intellectual disabilities, in support of the full implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Intellectual Disabilities. Signed into action by UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake and Special Olympics Chairman Dr. Timothy P. Shriver, the partnership currently features active programming in over 20 countries. The discrimination experienced by many children with disabilities means that they are less likely to have access to early childhood development services, health care or education than other children. It may also undermine their self-esteem and their interaction with others and make them more vulnerable to violence, abuse and exploitation.
Background:The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, signed by more than 110 countries and ratified by over one hundred, is the first treaty focusing exclusively on disability rights to be adopted by the United Nations General Assembly. The Convention offers a framework to ensure that children with disabilities have equal access to, and is included in, schools, health services and community life. It provides UNICEF and Special Olympics with a powerful platform to mobilize policy makers, industry, medicine, academia and entire communities in support of a global agenda for inclusion.
About Special Olympics

I went out to assateague yesterday and was not able to get on a single wave after an hour and half! I've only been out two other times since september or october when it seemed like I was starting to progress and having a blast.
Having said that I was stoked not only to be out again but also there were a couple guys out there, I didn't get a chance to say hello, that were really inspiring, cross stepping and making me want to keep it up.
I"m dying to move closer to water and get more time out.

Winward Silks
Winward captures the spirit and beauty of fresh flowers through the hand molding, painting, and assembly of each leaf, petal, and stem. Skilled artists import and grow fresh flowers, carefully duplicating minute details at every stage of the flower's life, creating hundreds of handcrafted molds to imbue their faux versions with a stunning vibrancy and life. High-quality stemming and wiring also give natural feel, weight, and bounce to the flowers. The only difference between these beauties and the real thing is that these arrangements won't wilt or droop in the summer heat or winter cold.
The gently curved lip of this glass vase provides a soft shape that beautifully matches the lushness of the roses.

Michigan coach John Beilein left many observers wondering what he was doing at the end of the game by failing to order quicker fouls. / Bob Donnan, USA TODAY Sports
ATLANTA â?? Michigan's history of last-minute gaffes in national championship games continues.
Coach John Beilein admitted he didn't realize how many fouls his team had committed in the final minute of Monday's 82-76 national championship loss to Louisville, a major error that impacted the Wolverines' strategy down the stretch.
"I thought we were in the 1-and-1," Beilein said. "It's a coaching error. That falls right on me."
Though it wasn't as egregious as Chris Webber calling a timeout in the 1993 championship game when Michigan didn't have one â?? resulting in a technical foul with the Wolverines down by two points â?? it was costly.
With Michigan trailing 78-74, it appeared the Wolverines got a key stop with 52 seconds left when Peyton Siva missed a runner. But Michigan freshman Caris LeVert stepped on the baseline while securing the rebound, giving the ball back to Louisville and seemingly forcing an immediate foul situation â?? especially with Michigan only having five team fouls.
Instead, Michigan tried to play defense and force a turnover, wasting 13 precious seconds before center Gorgui Dieng got fouled. To Beilein's surprise, however, that was only the Wolverines' sixth team foul. By the time they committed the seventh and put Louisville at the foul line, 29 seconds remained. Luke Hancock made both free throws, extending the lead to 80-74.
Wasting those 23 seconds proved to be crucial, as Michigan got back within 80-76 but had only 14 seconds left to come back. Siva's free throws with 12 seconds left iced the game.

Academy Award winner Marion Cotillard (who played Edith Piaf in La Vie en rose) stars in this gritty, moving and emotionally raw love story from Cannes Grand Prix winner Jacques Audiard (Un prophète)
French director Jacques Audiard (A Prophet) is one of the most accomplished filmmakers now working, blending taut storytelling with a subtle but scrupulously detailed visual style. His new film Rust and Bone, which has already set box-office records in France, boasts the same carefully wrought sensibility. Broke, homeless, and drifting, Ali (Matthias Schoenaerts) scrambles to make a living for himself and his young son. Ali focuses on his burgeoning career as a back-alley boxer, dreaming of making it big as a mixed martial artist. Taking work as a nightclub bouncer, he crosses paths with Stéphanie (Marion Cotillard), who works as a killer-whale trainer at an amusement park, commanding the beasts with an ease absent from her interpersonal relations. After Stéphanie suffers a terrible accident, the unlikely pair falls into a tender, tentative courtship. Audiard constructs this character study with masterful precision, blending naturalism with dreamily impressionistic visions and tense, staccato cutting. His two leads generate an irresistible chemistry in their strange romance: Schoenaerts is that rare combination of imposing presence and vulnerability, while Cotillard gives a bold performance, emotionally raw and achingly soulful. An unconventional and deeply felt study of human frailty, Rust and Bone proves Audiard's most assured cinematic turn to date. (France, 2012, 120 min, color, 35mm, Rated R, In French with English subtitles • Director/Co-Writer: Jacques Audiard • Co-Writer: Thomas Bidegain • Cast: Marion Cotillard, Matthias Schoenaerts)
"Rust and Bone is a strong, emotionally replete experience." – A.O. Scott, NEW YORK TIMES
"The masterful writer-director Jacques Audiard draws vivid performances from Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts for this gripping French romance about the body and the soul." – J.R. Jones, CHICAGO READER
