My commute is about 22 miles (each way) and I always fully charge my PiP at home and at work before I leave. I have no choice but to always activate the ICE (switch from EV mode to HV mode) and burn some gas when driving in each direction. I do drive at slower city speeds at both ends of my journey (2 miles at each end) so there is more than enough EV reaiming such that I must use a lot of my EV when driving at 55 MPH. My question is: For what driving condition/circumstance would it be optimal to initiate my ICE's warm-up cycle (that, once started, can not be stopped until the warm-up period is complete)? 1) Should it be right before going up a hill or would that not be optimal? 2) How about turning it on (switching to HV mode) at one of the many stop lights on my journey (to me that would seem to waste the ICE power generated during the warm-up cycle)? Certainly there isn't too much to gain here... but I am always interested in finding ways to maximize my fuel efficiency.
I think you need to drive the two miles at each end in EV mode, and the remainder in between in blended mode. As you are getting on the highway (i assume, or when that first two miles is complete) switch to HV mode to start the ICE warmup and then switch back EV. The hwy. portion will then be blended and use most all remaining EV range in the process. Sounds like an ideal situation to get stellar mileage, since you can charge on both ends. One of our aftermarket PHV members suggests getting the warmup out of the way early is the best approach. See #55 http://priuschat.com/forums/toyota-...nyone-filled-up-calculated-6.html#post1493761
I thought that blending only took place above 62MPH. That would mean very poor gas mileage (driving at 65 MPh, for example). I am sticking to 55 MPH in EV mode. I want to know when to turn on the ICE. Early doesn't make sense to me because the engine could get cold enough to turn on near the end of my trip when I want it to be in HV mode yet still only using the small bit of EV that is left.
Interesting question, that will matter a lot more in cold weather. I can think of a couple related issues. 1. Warm up the ICE only once 2. Run the ICE at max efficiency 3. Use as little petrol as possible during warm-up I am unfamiliar with the control logic in HV mode for the PiP, so I can only point to how to figure this out for yourself 3. Bob Wilson and a few others learned that low ICE load during the warm-up phase was most efficient. Shoot for 1300 rpm on level ground, or warm up on a downhill run. 2. When the ICE is running and warm, rpm is best at 1500 - 1900 rpm, or MAP (on a ScanGauge) as close to ambient as you can. 1. The simplest approach is to EV from the start, and let HV kick in when the car says so. That way you are assured of a warm-up only once. If you need battery help to keep the ICE load low when in ICE warm-up, kick into HV a mile before the car does so by itself. Have fun, and good luck!
OK, then force it on later, but the point is, if YOU make it happen it can be done in a fuel efficient blended mode. If it just happens automatically as total EV range is exausted, it may not be so efficient. Blending takes place anytime the ICE is running and in EV mode, regardless of speed. Thus the suggestion to select HV mode (forcing the ICE to start) and immediately return to EV mode. The warmup would be blended. Climate and the need for heat will also play a role in this decision, and cold would dictate an early ICE start also. Did you read posts #55 and #59 in the link above?
I turn on the ICE by switching from EV to HV mode. I have not had any trouble (so far) in unintentionally activating the ICE. Since I have more EV than is needed at speeds around 20-30 mph, I choose to drive on EV (55 mph) on the rest of my route. In my normal day to day driving, I do not ever blend (except when my car automatically does it when I choose to be in HV mode). Certainly winter will change things but right now it is unusually warm in Minnesota. I will need heat and the EV system may also require heat to function.
Thank you so much for your post. You pretty much answered my question. It sounds like the best time for me to switch over from EV to HV mode (initiating the ICE warm up) is when I won't be demanding a lot of power from the engine. Maybe when I'm driving a constant speed and not expecting any stop lights. I will admit this is sort of counter intuitive (to me, at least) because I know the engine generally is more efficient when you demand a miserate amount of power from it. I guess that warm-up is different. One thing I've noticed when switching to HV mode for the first time is that the EV miles drops about 0.4 mile initially (ICE warning up). I think the car realizes that EV power is more efficient than ICE power during warm up. The car does seem to know that the EV miles it 'bowwors' must be returned (and they are eventually, sometimes with interest). I like turning on the ICE close to the time when I have 'just enoigh' EV power saved for the final slow section of my journey. This is sometimes not so easy to do! This has the advantage that my ICE will still be warm from the warmup and not turn on immediately when the EV miles hit '0' (I am free to drive slowly for a little bit longer on the full HV battery, as long as I don't accelerate very strongly, I can get an extra mile). If you run out of EV miles and the ICE has never been warmed up, your ICE will turn on immediately when EV distance = 0 (a source of anxiety if you hope to have a pure EV drive). With the ICE already warm, you can get just a bit more EV driving for free when EV miles = 0 (and I now exploit this extra battery power, further improving my gas mileage).

Chelsea midfielder Marco van Ginkel wants to continue his fine pre-season form in the International Champions Cup against Milan on Sunday.
The 20-year-old Dutchman joined Chelsea from Vitesse Arnhem in the close-season and has quickly impressed, both on the club's tour of Asia and their tournament opener against Inter.
Van Ginkel played an hour in his side's 2-0 win against the Italian side and was happy to get forward and help in the final third.
This is something he will look to do against Massimiliano Allegri's team in New York, if given the chance by boss Jose Mourinho.
"In the second half there were more spaces to attack and run past my opponent, which I enjoy doing," he told the club's website.
"I feel very fit. After 60 minutes I felt nothing in my legs, so that's good, and it's because we have trained well, trained hard, and I feel ready to go.
"I don't know what will happen on Sunday in the next match against Milan, the coach has to decide, but I feel I can do more which is a positive sign."
The winner of the semi-final will meet Everton or Real Madrid in the tournament's closing fixture, offering Mourinho the chance to go up against another of his former employers in the tournament.
The Serie A side won the opening game of the tournament on Saturday 2-1 against Valencia at the Estadio Mestalla to book a second round meeting with Chelsea.
The pair have met five times in the United States over recent pre-season campaigns, with each side winning twice as well as a draw in 2005.
Since the Valencia win, Milan have subsequently suffered a number of injuries in defence, with Daniele Bonera and Philippe Mexes unable to feature in the United States.
Allegri saw his side go 5-0 down after just 30 minutes against Manchester City on Wednesday, going on to lose 5-3, but they recovered against Sao Paulo, keeping a clean sheet and winning 1-0, to the delight of their manager.
He said: "(Against City) we had 30 minutes of madness, but then the team was able to create a lot of chances, it was a really weird match.
"(Thursday, against Sao Paulo) it was a lot more balanced, we had very few problems in the back, a few mistakes coming out of our box.
"We conceded them a couple of chances but, all in all, after yesterday's drubbing, a few players were tired, (Nigel) De Jong and (Sulley) Muntari were out, (Kevin-Prince) Boateng on the bench, a bunch of young players on the pitch, I think they did more than all right."

NWAR: Trench Warfare
Detective Nwar gets his hands dirty for a political campaign.
4.41 / 5.00 2,840 ViewsHello everyone. It´s been a while since I submitted anything here, so I thought I´d kick it up a notch by doing some after effects compositing and such.. Quite a big file, but I think it´s worth the wait, so make yourselves a cup of tea while you wait for the film to load:) If you enjoy the music and general theme, be sure to check out the rest of our stuff - this is actually made to be part of our live performance, along with other visuals, so if you like what you see and hear, check out our myspace by clicking the audio link!
EDIT - Frontpage!! I am very happy and very thankful! And I do love getting reviews, as I read them all carefully and use them as pointers to what I can improve - without feedback I would never get anywhere! Thank you all for many kind words, glad so many have taken the time to watch it, considering the large filesize!
Wow, cant believe the score! and weekly 1st, this is brilliant! I have uploaded a new and final version, there shouldnt be any more problems with the audio sync now, and there are small changes to some scenes and the credits.
Thanks again newgrounds, the amount of feedback and support is overwhelming!
Well balanced stuff above.Surprisingly entertaining to watch that dark animation with some little portion of galactic fighting.I slightly like it more than i even should..that seems much bigger enjoyable than i expected it to be...
Great job :D
Great animation, great sound, great everything, Sir you have just won my personal Emmy Award for best video/ short film ever!
-This was amazing, it's awesome to see such a great quality of traditional animation on newgrounds. The limited colour schemes and controlled use of effects made the fluid motion so fun to watch.
-I can't get over how well planned out your shots were. Some shots, while seeming like there wasn't actually much happening in the shot (purely from an animators perspective), felt very emmersive.
-I think that more explanation of a story, and less of the music video look and feel would really help to make it more epic, as story elements could gradually build to a climax.
Its nice to see recuring characters
I'm guessing theres a deeper story behind this than remove police which I would like to hear sometime. THe animation vastly improved though I liked the other song better even if it was a bit long.

Take and old sweater, sweatshirt, or long-sleeved t-shirt and recycle it to make pants for a baby or toddler. Since we are just using the sleeves, this project goes really quickly... I did it in 30 minutes!
Materials needed:
Old sweater, sweatshirt, or LS T-shirt
**Washer and (preferably) dryer (only if using wool shirt - it is best to felt a sweater)
Pattern or pair of baby's pants
Straight pins
Elastic (~1cm wide and enough to go around baby's waist)
Sewing machine
That oughta do it. Let's start!!
Step 1: If using wool, you need to felt the shirt
Turn it inside out
Wash in hot water
Dry in dryer if you have one.
I don't so I washed mine with the diapers twice (80degC) then dried on the radiator
I found this site to be very helpful:
Use Old Wool Sweaters and Blankets to Make Felt
Step 2: Cut the sleeves
Lay your pattern or pair of pants on the sleeve so that the inside seam of the pants lines up with the seam of the shirt.
Cut around the pattern or pants. BE SURE TO LEAVE ~3CM FOR THE WAISTBAND!!!
Using the piece you just cut, lay it on the other sleeve. (Think mirror image)
Be sure to make sure seams line up the cut other sleeve.

On safari in search of king crabs
Comment on this storyKirkenes, Norway - King crabs can grow up to 80 centimetres in length and weigh in the region of 10 kilograms.
Visitors to northern Norway can not only enjoy the regional delicacy on their dinner plates but also have the chance to go on a crab safari to the best fishing grounds on a local fishing boat.
The view is masked by sea spray and a cold maritime wind chills the body as the motor boat makes its way over the Barents Sea. The only noises to be heard come from the diesel engine and the calls of a couple of seagulls following the vessel.
The departure point of Kirkenes has long since disappeared from view when Ronny Ostrem pulls his boot up alongside a buoy before hauling a large green fishing net on board containing almost 40 king crabs.
Ostrem squeezes the legs of the crabs between his thumb and finger to ascertain whether they contain enough meat.
He throws the smaller crabs back into the water although in winter this is the exception rather than the rule as it is high season and the water is ice free thanks to the Gulf Stream.
King crabs, also called stone crabs, are chiefly found in cold seas. Although native to the North Pacific, the crustaceans were introduced to the Barents Sea near Murmansk in the 1960s by Russian scientists and have since spread rapidly towards the Norwegian coast due to a lack of natural enemies.
Some scientists argue that the crabs are destroying the local ecosystem's balance and have called for them to be eradicated.
Because of their large size and the taste of their meat, many species of king crab are widely caught and sold as food across the world. They are considered delicacies in countries such as the United States and Japan, while Norwegian fishermen from Finnmark province are now making a handsome living offering crab safaris to tourists.
Crab fishing is strictly regulated in Norway and only a few fishermen hold licences. Locals are only allowed take 10 male king crabs a year out of the sea for their own use.
But the crabs are a good income source for people like Ostrem, who used to be a pilot but had to give up his job for health reasons.
Ostrem decided to open up a small tourism business in his native town of Kirkenes, offering almost everything visitors to northern Norway would looking for, including dog-sled tours, a snow hotel, reindeer park, walking trips and crab safaris.
In Finnmark, close to the border with Finland and Russia, nature is the biggest attraction.
Ostrem lowers the net back into the water, turns the boat engine back on and returns to harbour. In a small red-coloured fishing hut, Ostrem prepares his catch, gutting each crab before cutting the legs off and throwing them into a pot of salted water to steam for 17 minutes until they turn orange in colour.
It is slightly tricky removing the meat from inside the leg but it is well worth the effort. Ostrem squeezes some lemon juice over his crab meat before consuming it with some buttered white bread and a glass of chilled white wine.
At such a moment, life could not be better. - Sapa-dpa

A fanciful pedestrian gate ushers you through Symbio's lushly-landscaped grounds and into the entry foyer, which is inlaid with a polished stone compass rose. So very sophisticated and elegant, Symbio celebrates superb artistic design and detailed fine-craftsman execution throughout every space of this stunning two-bedroom, fully air-conditioned villa set on two-thirds of an acre.
On the main floor, a beautifully-furnished great room shares space with an open-plan gourmet kitchen and dining area. In the high-ceilinged great room, mobile wood panels are hung on rails so that you may slide them around to cover sections of the glass slider doors to prevent glare while watching TV during the day. Glass sliding pocket doors open completely around the great room to incorporate the adjoining wrap-around covered terrace. More cushioned seating on the terrace overlooks the pool and gardens below, and beyond, azure sea views and fiery tropical sunsets. Angled concrete stairs descend from this terrace to an interim hardwood deck fitted with benches and a picnic table, and continue down to the pool, garden and gym level.
Alongside the great room and terrace is the kitchen, featuring custom cabinetry lined with bar stools and a domed barrel ceiling, polished concrete countertops inlaid with sea glass, and equipped with stainless steel Viking appliances. At one end of the kitchen is a bar/coffee nook, and at the other end, a convenient door opens out to a fully-screened alfresco grill kitchen and wet bar, another comfortable and convivial spot furnished with bar stools at the sleek counter.
Through an archway from the great room and kitchen is the dining area. Pocket glass slider doors fronting one side of the dining room disappear into the wall, opening up the screened grill kitchen and bar just outside as a bonus space for cocktails and grilling.
Down the hallway is a convenient powder room and a chef's pantry with a large Viking refrigerator and workspace.
Symbio's air-conditioned queen guest suite is at the far end of the corridor, a restful retreat with a bay window seat, a spacious desk, light-blocking window treatments which allow you to sleep as late as you wish, and glass slider doors which open to a private covered verandah. A concrete staircase conveniently spirals down from this terrace to the pool and gym level, perfect for a private midnight swim and stargazing. This suite's bathroom features a double vanity and an alfresco rain shower sheltered by an arc of curved glass blocks. The air-conditioned king master suite is an alluring and very private space. Accessed by a contoured staircase ascending near the villa's entrance and completely secluded on Symbio's upper level, this serene suite has a covered breezeway porch (perfect for yoga and massage, or a game of cards) and adjacent, a small step-out balcony which overlooks the pool area. The master suite offers a desk, and from the king bed, an ocean view. The en-suite bath features a double vanity; adjoining is the semi-alfresco rain shower, also partially enclosed by opaque glass block.
Down on Symbio's pool level are gardens and giant boulders providing privacy for sunbathing, swimming and relaxing. The freeform pool has a graduated walk-in entry just like a beach, is chlorine-free and features a fountain. From the pool deck, a wooden walkway leads past an ancient ficus tree to Symbio's well-equipped and air-conditioned gym.
Every corner, every space and every detail were carefully laid out and ingeniously accomplished in grand style, resulting in a harmonious, elegant, yet cozy home. Symbio combines both with sublime originality, inspired style and luxurious comfort...five stars!

Symbio My Experience
Very pretty house and pool with beautiful landscaping and great views.
The villa was outstanding - meticulously designed and appointed, offering ambiance and opportunity to relax and release in a zen-like environment. Highly recommend this villa.
When we first arrived at Symbio we were taken aback by it's tremendous beauty, and craft. We knew the photos had painted a glimpse of what was to come but being there was so much more. The relaxing great room which flows into the fabulous "cooks kitchen". We so enjoyed coming back to our villa to rinse off the slat water, mix a cocktail and begin dinner with chatter about the fantastic new beach or snorkeling site we had discovered. This was typically interrupted to drink in a view of the sun going down from one of the decks. Tremendous.
Payment is usually accepted in the quoted currency (US Dollar) unless the currency and the amount is specifically agreed in advance with the owner / advertiser.

Une région magnifique, un cadre exceptionnel, un très bon accueil de nos hôtes... Annette et Pascal ont réalisé une remarquable restauration de ce château-fort
A spectacular get away in the midi Pyrenees region. The chateau itself was spectacular! The Facility included hammock and pool for relaxation. The hosts Astrid and Pascale were very friendly, the pets were also a great addition. The advice provided by Pascale was great information about the regions activities such as caves, canoeing and the markets.
Great stay. Host was very attentive when we arrived and the gite was nicely equipped for our stay. Very unique place. She offered extra towels for pool use and left us some wine/bread upon arrival.

Save the specified reactor in ReactorSelectionMixin for later inspection

ReactorSelectionMixin gives an Options subclass options for listing and installing a particular reactor. To ensure that the reactor has the greatest chance of being successfully installed, it installs it while the option parsing is happening. This is cool.
However, it means that no "reactor" key is ever added to the Options instance, so it's hard to tell which reactor was installed.
In particular, disttrial (#1784) is interested in this so that it can configure the test runner processes it creates to use the same reactor.

More than 204,000 Connecticut residents newly enrolled in health coverage during the 2015 open enrollment period. Between Nov. 15 and Feb. 15, 41,864 people enrolled in qualified health plans (QHPs) and 162,494 individuals enrolled in Medicaid through the state-run marketplace.
Access Health CT greatly exceeded its goal of enrolling an additional 70,000 people in health coverage for 2015. According to a CT Mirror article, Access Health CT enrolled 256,666 residents in health coverage in 2014. Of that number, about 139,000 were previously uninsured, and about 80 percent enrolled in Medicaid.
The 2015 enrollment total will continue to grow as Access Health CT announced a special enrollment period (SEP) for individuals who are just learning of the tax penalty for people who do not have health insurance. The requirement for insurance went into effect in 2014, but many people were unaware of the penalty until they filled out their 2014 tax forms. The penalty-related SEP will run from April 1 through April 30.
SEPs are also available to individuals who experience a qualifying life event, such as getting married or losing a job. Individuals not eligible for a SEP must wait for the next open enrollment period, which begins in November 2015.
If you qualify for Medicaid (HUSKY), you can enroll anytime throughout the year.
2015 health plans and premiums
Four health insurers are offering individual and family plans through Access Health CT for 2015. Anthem, Connecticare and HealthyCT are returning from 2014, and UnitedHealthCare joined the exchange for 2015.
Regulators in Connecticut pushed back on the 2015 rates proposed by insurers. Connecticare and Anthem both requested increases of more than 10, which regulators reduced to 3.1 percent or less. HealthyCT received approval to reduce its rates an average of 8.5 percent.
According to the Commonwealth Fund, 2015 rates on Access Health CT decreased 1 percent on average for individual coverage and 2 percent on average for family coverage.
Penalties going up for those not insured
The penalty for not having health insurance will increase for 2015. The fee is the greater of 1) two percent of yearly household income or 2) up to $975 for families ($325 per adult and $162.50 per child under 18). The fee will be assessed when you file your 2015 taxes in 2016.
Learn more about the penalty and who is excluded.
History of Connecticut's exchange
Connecticut was one of the early adopters in implementing a health insurance marketplace. Gov. Malloy signed legislation in 2011 to create the Connecticut Health Insurance Exchange, which was rebranded as Access Health CT in February 2013. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) approved Connecticut's blueprint for a state-run exchange in December 2012.
Access Health CT describes itself as an active purchaser, but did not negotiate 2014 rates with health plans. Prompted by concerns over high premiums, Connecticut legislators revisited the issue during the 2014 session. SB-11 would have allowed Access Health CT to negotiate with insurers for plans sold in 2016. However, the bill did not pass. Connecticut's Fairfield County made the Kaiser Family Foundation list of the top 10 most expensive health insurance markets in 2014.
Access Health CT has been one of the nation's most successful marketplaces. Signs of that success include:
- Connecticut's uninsured rate dropped by 50 percent: from 7.9 percent in 2012 to 4 percent in 2014.
- Connecticut launched a consulting business through which other states can license Access Health CT's technology or pay Access Health CT to manage various marketplace functions. According to an article in the CT Mirror, nine states have expressed interest.
- Access Health CT's former CEO, Kevin Counihan, was tapped to take over as the CEO of the federal exchange, HealthCare.gov. Jim Wadleigh took over the CEO role. Wadleigh previously served as the exchange's chief information officer.

Taxing dope to fund schools is wrong
When prohibition was lifted some destructive practices came with it. Absenteeism increased in the work force, fatalities on our highways, health care costs increased because of the health consequences and of course our youth saw alcohol consumption rise also.
Sherry Appleton's promotion of legalizing pot has some good points. It will decrease a burdened legal system to make way for more serious crimes. But there is a difference between making it an offense where a ticket could be given than legalizing and taxing it.
Taxing pot to pay for public education is an oxymoron. It hurts the development of people growing , it hurts the way they learn to relate to each other, it limits their potential. To justify one action with another that already has shown will increase usage with our youth is wrong.

Decent helmet, sizing off
By Ski MI
from Detroit, MI
About Me Intermediate
Comments about Smith Venue Helmet:
Helment looked decent. Easy to change size with a dial however, it was too small for me. My head circumference is 58cm, medium should have worked, but I found it to be too tight even without a beanie. My wife's head circumference is 55cm and it fit her nicely. I would have ordered a large size but they only had medium
Super Comfortable
By ski dad
from Northern VA
About Me Advanced
The helmet is very comfortable and warm. I have no immediate plans to crash test it, so I can't review the safety of the helmet.
Inexpensive Entry Into Helmets
By TheBerg
from Philadelphia PA
Fit is not as good as their higher end helmets, causing me to have to upsize. The helmet is not very warm, I had to wear a beanie one day when temps dropped into the teens.
Nice and warm
By Mrwanny
from Seattle wa
Nice and warm helmet good for any occasion

Anonymous, I know what you mean. These interview questions are dumb. Anyone who just did a first year course in Java could probably answer those questions. Does that say anything about their performance? No, just means you do well at answering those questions.

Old, retired with lots of time on my hands and a Nikon. Lucky for me, there is a park just north of town that provides me with migrating birds and sunsets. Since joining this site, I have a new appreciation for this scenic world we live in. I especially love the comments from so many great people on here.

On 23 August 1989, a young black man, Yusuf Hawkins, was murdered
by more than a dozen white youths wielding baseball bats in their
Bensonhurst neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. Because Hawkins
and his three companions, who were in this neighborhood to look
at a used car, became innocent victims of a racially motivated
attack, the incident became the center of a racial crisis in New
York - a city already filled with the racial tension created by
other episodes of violence perpetrated by both blacks and whites.
This live-action video presentation from the PBS Frontline series
looks at the events of the seven days following the violent death
of this young man. Seven Days in Bensonhurst reflects the
personal views of Shelby Steele, a black faculty member at
California's San Jose State University who has written many
first-person commentaries on issues of race. This program was
produced six months after the tragedy occurred. Supported by news
film footage and interviews, Steele's study describes how the
slaying of Hawkins created a media event that provided black and
white politicians, black activists, white racists, and the media
with an opportunity to further their own best interests. New
York's mayoral candidates at the time, David Dinkins and Ed Koch,
as well as the controversial black activist, Reverend Al
Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson, are but a few of the many
politicians and celebrities who are shown playing a role in the
episodes that followed Hawkins' death. Interviews with reporters
who were on the scene and with Bensonhurst community leaders
further enhance the picture. The violent reactions of some New
Yorkers to the black protest marches in Bensonhurst are recorded
complete with the profanities that were expressed. Using
historical footage, the production draws a parallel between this
murder and that of Emmett Till in 1955. (Steele is careful to
point out that these are the 1990s and racism is no longer
perceived in the same way by blacks or whites.) He concludes by
saying that violent eruptions of racial tension such as the one
in Bensonhurst provide power for the politically wise, but only
serve to frustrate whites and blacks who are striving to improve
race relations.
The technical quality of this professionally produced video is
very high. Editing, lighting, and camerawork have a polished
finish. The audio is sometimes muffled in the scenes shot on the
Bensonhurst streets. Steele is an articulate and analytical
reporter, and his interviews - with Sharpton, Hawkins' father, a
minister from Bensonhurst, and various news reporters - are
interesting and revealing. The presentation is well structured
and the footage chosen from the march sequences more than drives
its point home.
Because of some of the rough language and the complexity of
the subject matter, Seven Days in Bensonhurst should be used with
high school to adult audiences. Its focus on racism, politics,
and the media makes it an excellent choice for viewers interested
in political science, sociology, communications, and criminal
justice. This video is a timely document on racism in today's
society - a subject that has become vastly important for
discussion and study.

My husband and I are planning on a Tanzania safari in October. We plan to focus on the northern game route. Probably we will only be able to do an 7-9 day safari. We are trying to find a good trip at a decent price. We are not super fussy about accommodations, we want good food but really good game viewing and guides. We aren't A&K type spenders. (unfortunately) Does any one have any experience with Tanzania Adventure? Any other recommendations?
Thanks Much,

Fred Davis is one of those players that you look at and think to yourself, "He'll just never learn." Last December, Davis was suspended for the remainder of the NFL season after the NFL and NFL Players Association agreed on a punishment for the Redskins tight end for his multiple failed drug tests. The problem with that, Davis says, is that all of the failed tests were based on the same instance of drug use — the weed just wasn't out of his system yet.
"See the thing is, people are mistaken what that was about and they don't really know the whole story to that," Davis explained during an interview with 106.7 The Fan's Holden and Danny. "It wasn't failed drug tests in a row. See, that's the thing about it. I don't try to get into it, because people are all 'You failed a drug test repeatedly.' No, they test you every week. So how is weed gonna be out of your system? It's set up for you to fail.
"So, it's one of those situations where you guys are all like, 'Oh, you failed it again and again. No, it was three weeks in a row they test you, and anybody who smokes weed knows that weed isn't going to be out of your system in a month. So, of course they're gonna say it's repeated."
Isn't there some sort of magic drink you can buy at GNC for this type of delinquent behavior? The frightening thing is this guy is kind of a lawyer.
As Sarah Kogod of DC Sports Bog mentioned, we'll never know if Davis was indeed tested three weeks in a row since the NFL's drug tests remain confidential. Plenty of players test positive for marijuana use (including nine others at the start of training camp last season) and only fail one time. Does that mean the NFL happened to test them three weeks after they smoked? Or are they just lucky enough that they weren't tested again until three weeks after their initial test? It's a nice theory, but Davis isn't exactly a credible source at this point.

Even though the Under Armour All-America Game was somewhat lopsided, both teams had players who stood out. Here is a breakdown of the 15 best performers in the game, including both teams' MVP.
Top performer
DL Dominique Easley (Staten Island, N.Y./Curtis) -- committed to Florida
Every year in Orlando, Fla., there seems to be one defensive lineman who stands out of the pack due to his great explosiveness and dominant play. In 2008, it was DaQuan Bowers (Clemson). In 2009 it was Gary Brown (Florida). And this year, it was Easley.
The New York product proved to be nearly impossible to block when lined up in a shade with a combination of great snap anticipation and quickness. Easley consistently showed that he was unblockable, especially when the lights came on during the game. Right off the bat, during the first series, he displayed his incredible explosiveness off the ball and continued to be a disruptive presence all day long. He did a real nice job when matched up one-on-one, using both his quickness and hands. In addition, he found ways to continue to be a handful even when double teamed. Despite lacking ideal size for a defensive tackle, Easley used his quickness to spin and split double teams.
Florida fans must be thrilled to add this Under Armour All-American, who earned Black Team MVP honors. Easley finished with four tackles, three tackles for loss, one sack, two hurries and one forced fumble.
Other standouts (in alphabetical order)
WR Mike Davis (Dallas/Skyline) -- committed to Texas
Maybe one of the more underrated receivers coming into this event, Davis was nearly impossible for corners to cover one-on-one. He consistently created separation, showing great precision and burst out of his breaks as a route runner. His hands were impressive, plucking the ball away from his frame and tracking the deep ball. On Saturday, Davis caught three passes for 53 yards, including a leaping 25-yard touchdown in the corner of the end zone.
S Demar Dorsey (Fort Lauderdale, Fla./Boyd Anderson) -- committed to Florida
Dorsey proved to be a true center fielder in the three-deep coverage, showing excellent range and was able to help break up several takeoffs down the sideline due to his quick break on the ball and speed in the open field. He also wasn't gun-shy in run support and closed quickly from the deep middle to make several tackles and assists. Dorsey displayed his excellent speed in avoiding tacklers as he made crucial yards after his interception Saturday. The future Gator also racked up three solo tackles and one forced fumble on the day.
S Jonathan Dowling (Bradenton, Fla./Southeast) -- committed to Florida
Dowling may have proven to be the most impressive skilled player on the field Saturday. He intercepted two passes -- returning one 56 yards for a touchdown -- showing his soft and reliable hands necessary to play big-time football. His first interception was extremely impressive because it came on a short pass during which he demonstrated incredible instincts and reactions snatching a pass with a lot of velocity on it. He also displayed a burst and excellent acceleration after each pick, and he obviously has a nose for the end zone.
RB Michael Dyer (Little Rock, Ark./Christian) -- committed to Auburn
The stat sheet (10 rushing yards, two receptions for 27 yards) on Saturday might not indicate a great game but Dyer made several hard runs and took an improvised shovel pass for a long gainer, showing great initial burst and strength as he broke would-be tackles. During the week of practice, he proved to be durable and a back who could get the tough in-line yards when needed, with his excellent balance and lower-body power. He also hurt defenses on the perimeter with his deceptive outside burst and lateral quickness. The Auburn commit is the definition of a five-star prospect who is ready to tote the rock immediately for the Tigers.
OT James Hurst (Plainfield, Ind./Plainfield) -- committed to North Carolina
We like Hurst's ability to control edge rushers. He displayed good feet with the ability to come back inside and handle the inside rush with good upper-body strength. There was a point in the game where he was brought inside to the guard position, specifically to deal with Easley and Ashton Dorsey (Tyler, Texas). This shows his versatility to play both tackle and guard.
OT Ja'Wuan James (Suwanee, Ga./North Gwinnett) -- committed to Tennessee
Arguably the top offensive lineman in Orlando, the Tennessee commit was a mountain to get around and dominated the competition. He showed good feet in pass protection, handled the outside rush off the edge and has the ability to come back inside versus change-of-direction moves. James continually showed the quick feet and agility that should make him a great pass protector at the next level. We also like his ability to get on linebackers, which he showed in the game, and can sustain in space.
DT Louis Nix (Jacksonville, Fla./Raines) -- committed to Notre Dame
Once again, Nix showed he can anchor inside versus the run, but we were also impressed with his initial quickness and change of direction versus the inside run. He proved to be a steady pass-rusher who could push the pile and split the double teams at times. Nix registered two solo tackles and one tackle for loss on Saturday.
WR Justin Hunter (Virginia Beach, Va./Ocean Lakes) -- committed to LSU
Hunter showed flashes of former Under Armour All-American A.J. Green (Georgia) throughout the week. His fluidity and overall athleticism for a taller receiver is rare and highly coveted at the college level. His wide catching radius and ability to pluck contested balls away from smaller corners with his outstanding hands and leaping skills should allow him to see early playing time at LSU.
S Alec Ogletree (Newnan, Ga./Newnan) -- committed to Georgia
Ogletree, who made two solo tackles Saturday, was one of the more scheme-versatile defenders all week in Orlando. When he wasn't stepping down in the box to make physical plays in run support, he was getting off the deep hash over the top of routes showing great range and athleticism. He has monster size for a safety and could likely grow into an outside linebacker.
QB Chase Rettig (Sierra Madre, Calif./San Clemente) -- committed to B.C.
Rettig was one of the more consistent quarterbacks all week. His ability to make all the college throws was most impressive. He flashed great zip and arm strength, fitting the ball into the tight underneath windows. He also showed he has the arm strength accuracy needed for downfield throws. Rettig seemed to get into sequence from Day 1 and really grasped the offense. He led all Under Armour quarterbacks in completions and passing yards Saturday.
WR Da'Rick Rogers (Calhoun, Ga./Calhoun) -- committed to Georgia
Rogers' combination of size and speed proved too difficult a matchup for even the top cornerbacks in the country during practice. He won most contested jump balls utilizing his great leaping skills, height, strength and athleticism. His hands and ability to come down with the difficult grab was impressive.
DE Dakota Royer (Manheim, Pa./Manheim) -- committed to Penn State
While not looking like a prototypical defensive end prospect, Royer may have been the best football player in Orlando. As a pass rusher, he showed great initial burst off the ball, excellent hands and good command of moves. He showed us in person what we saw on film: a good athlete with a great feel for the game, a matching motor and someone that finds a way to be productive. During the contest, Royer had four tackles, 1.5 sacks and one quarterback hurry.
OLB Michael Taylor (Atlanta/Westlake) -- committed to Tennessee
Taylor, who was named White Team MVP, lived up to his reputation as an undersized playmaker on defense. He made multiple explosive tackles and seemed to be constantly around the football. Taylor finished the game with three stops, including one tackle for loss.
WR Darius White (Fort Worth, Texas/Dunbar) -- committed to Texas
White showed his versatility as a receiver and return specialist. He saved his most impressive performance of the week for the game and proved to be a guy who comes to play when the lights are on. White was impressive as a returner, showing the ability to make tacklers miss in the open field on his 35-yard punt return for a score. He found the end zone a second time on an 11-yard reception. The newest Texas commit is a skilled athlete who can run the 40-yard dash in 4.4 seconds, and his speed showed in the game.
