Fonda Theatre, Los Angeles, CA
"Well, there's an official here beside the stage from the Los Angeles Fire Department that says the venue's too full, so they're asking that 100 people move from the floor to the balcony, or they're gonna shut it down. Ron Blair says he'll volunteer to go if need be. There, I've done my part. Now let me get back to doing what I do best."
Before launching into what became the show-closing "Melinda," Tom cracked a smile at Ron, who waved goodbye to the crowd as if he was leaving the stage, trying to make light of an unfortunate situation.
The detailed reasons for why events unfolded the way they did on Saturday night are not totally clear. But the local authorities deemed it unsafe, and the safety of the fans, band, crew and venue staff is paramount.
No harsh words were muttered backstage. There was no ill will. Just a bit of confusion followed by genuine concern for disappointing the fans.
If I know anything about this band, they will come out guns ablazing on Sunday night. You've been warned.

BURLINGTON — Greene Central's attitude surely didn't reflect the results.
The Rams were simply happy to be here.
A sixth singles match wasn't needed and the teams played doubles just for fun as girls tennis powerhouse Salisbury won its fifth straight NCHSAA state 2A dual-team title with a 5-0 win over Greene Central at the Burlington Tennis Complex on Saturday.
The Rams (20-9) were shutout in two of the five singles matches that went final and won just seven games overall against a Hornets squad that last lost a state finals match when Greene Central beat them in 2007.
But what happened on the court Saturday was nowhere near as important as what happened over the course of the season, especially for a team that began the year 6-6 and had no thoughts of making its 11th state finals appearance overall.
"We were really just excited to be here because we didn't think we were going to make it at the beginning of the season," Greene Central senior Jessica Hatch said. "No one gave us hope to make it and we turned that around and made it."
Top seed Katelyen Storey set the tone early for Salisbury when she swept Hatch, the Rams' top seed 6-0, 6-0 to give the Hornets an early 1-0 lead.
The next four results followed suit, with Madelyne Hoskins defeating Taylar Keel 6-2, 6-0, Kayla Honeycutt defeating Mackenzie Butts 6-0, 6-0, Alexandra Drye defeating Olivia Jackson 6-1, 6-2 and Anna Flynn defeating Kayla Radford 6-2, 6-0 in the deciding match.
When Flynn knocked off Radford, play was stopped between four-seeds Laurie Sutton and Sallie Kate Meyerhoeffer so the Hornets (21-2) could celebrate.
They celebrated like they had been here before.
"I still think that there's only a handful of 4A teams in North Carolina that would beat them and I think they'd probably win a 3A state championship, too. They're obviously an extremely talented team," Rams coach Donald Clark said of Salisbury. "I was very proud that my girls went out there and played hard in singles and didn't just quit and give up because of Salisbury's overwhelming talent."
Greene Central sputtered out of the gate when its season began on Aug. 13 by losing four of its first five matches and at that time the thought of being one of the final two teams left standing wasn't being entertained.
Then Eastern Plains 2A Conference play began, and a 9-0 win over Wilson Beddingfield on Aug. 21 — 24 hours following being shut out by Raleigh Cardinal Gibbons — began to build confidence in the Rams.
They went 12-0 in league play, and turned a 6-6 start into a 16-8 regular season. The momentum carried over into the playoffs, where they won four in a row — some in the elements — and got back to the state finals for the first time since 2009.
That year Greene Central also came up short to Salisbury, and by the same score. But to the Rams, this season was anything but disappointing.
"When we first started out … we were so far away from Burlington it was unreal," said Clark, now in his 25th year of coaching tennis. "But the girls worked hard every practice and we kept trying things and switching things until we found something that worked then we sort of clicked about early October.
"These girls just never quit and give up, and it's been a pleasure to work with them."

LED stands for light-emitting diode. LEDs are small light sources that become illuminated by the movement of electrons through a semiconductor material. Low-powered LEDs are used to draw attention to something, such as an exit sign, a green power button on a computer or a red blinking light on a video camera. High-powered LEDs are used to illuminate an area.
Not all LEDs are highly efficient and long-lasting. LEDs have been efficient and long lasting as indicator lights in electronics for years, but using LEDs to create stable white light for general lighting presents new challenges. LED lighting products must pass a variety of tests to prove that the products will display high-efficiency characteristics. (Source: Energystar.gov / Photo: Flickr)

Re: Free Picks: Service Plays for Sunday, March 10
Jeff Scott Sports
Boston/ Oklahoma City Over 200: The Celtics have been trying to run a bit more and they should get their chance to do so in this one. Boston did put up 108 points in an earlier home game vs the Thunder and they have averaged 100.6 ppg in their last 5 games. The Celts do average just 94.9 ppg on the rad, but OKC has struggled some on defense of late, allowing 100.4 ppg in their last 5 games overall and they allow 95.6 ppg at home. I think getting at least 96 from Boston would be golden here, cause the have scored at least 106 points in 10 of their last 12 home games. OKC averages 109.9 pg at home, including 113.8 ppg in their last 12 at home. Boston's defense has been pretty good this year, but they will be hard pressed to stop the Thunder in this one. This should be an up and down game, with at least 205 points being scored. KEY TREND--- The Over is 12-5 in Boston's last 17 games vs an opponent that scored 100+ in their previous game.

Wisconsin - over Penn State
Wisconsin has lost back-to-back games to surrender any hopes of the Big Ten title and for the first time in the Bo Ryan era the Badgers might finish outside of the top four in the conference. Wisconsin has had truly dreadful shooting in the last two games and while this game will be on the road this should be a good opportunity for Wisconsin to get back in rhythm as Penn State has some of the worst defensive numbers in the conference. Wisconsin struggled to pull away in the first meeting between these teams with a 60-51 win at home but this is a Penn State team that has won just two conference games. Penn State did show improvement late in the season but this squad has lost eight home games and after its first Big Ten win the Lions followed up with a 29-point loss. Penn State scored a big win over Northwestern during the week and they could be a bit flat back at home behind an underwhelming final home game crowd. Penn State has covered in seven straight meetings between these teams but value is back on Wisconsin for this match-up, especially considering that the spread was 18 at the Kohl Center when these teams met earlier in the year. The Badgers are an extremely well coached and disciplined team that will have a focused effort going into this final conference game and coming two losses including the humiliating effort in East Lansing. These teams will likely meet up again in the Big Ten tournament and Wisconsin will make sure it is clear who will be in charge of that match-up.

Wisconsin -8.5 over Penn State
Wisconsin needs a big win to end the year here. Penn State is a weak team and this Badgers team needs a big win for the tournament committee and themselves. You just can't lose to the worst team in the conference at the end of the season. Take Wisconsin.
Indiana Pk Michigan
Two teams have played great and have played poor. Indiana is a better team and has more experience. This is going to be a good game, but in the end I think Indiana does exactly what they did at home a few weeks ago in the final minutes. Take the Hoosiers.
Virginia -8.5 over Maryland
Maryland is a young team and I like how they have played this year at home, but on the road they are very week. Virginia is one of the most underrated teams in the nation and they are great at home. Look for them to make a statement for the committee at home today. Take Virginia

VIRGINIA (-8) over Maryland
Nice ACC FREE WINNER yesterday with Duke and we will stay in the ACC and back Virginia to bounce back big after two road loses. Cavaliers have been money at home going 17-4 ATS their last 17 in Charlottesville and will be focused today with a first round bye in this weeks ACC Tournament on the line and a packed house rocking John Paul Jones Arena on Senior Night. Maryland has been solid at home but awful on the road where they sport a 4-11 ATS mark. That trend continues tonight as Virginia gets ready for the ACC Tournament by blowing out the Terps.

Dallas at Minnesota
Play: Dallas
Somehow, someway, the Mavericks are still in the Western Conference playoff hunt sitting just three games out of the eighth and final spot. The possibility of making the playoffs has Dallas playing with game-by-game focus which is more than this crippled Minnesota team has going for it right now. Down to just nine players and missing three key starters including center Nikola Peković, the Timberwolves are running on fumes. Dallas' frontline advantages and their depth figure to be problematic for Minnesota tonight and it helps that the Mavs continue to be a rested team. Without any semblance of a go to scorer, the T-Wolves faltered miserably in their first game without Pekovic last night against Denver getting outscored 61-39 in the second half. Back-to-back games with a shorthanded team coming from the mile high altitude doesn't bode well for Minnesota against a Dallas team still playing with a purpose. Have no problem laying the -6.5 tonight in a contest the Mavs should win by double-digits.
Re: Free Picks: Service Plays for Sunday, March 10
N.Y. Islanders +181 over PITTSBURGH
OT included. Both these teams will play their third game in four days but the Islanders played yesterday afternoon while the Penguins played last night in Toronto. A Saturday game in Toronto on Hockey Night In Canada is one that every player gets up for. The Penguins came out fired up but by the third period they were running on fumes. The Maple Leafs skated circles around the Pens in that period and in OT but the Penguins luckily escaped with a 5-4 shootout win. On Thursday night, Pittsburgh had to rally from a 4-1 deficit against its biggest rival, the Philadelphia Flyers. With poor goaltending and weak defense continuing to haunt this Penguins club and coming off two emotional and draining wins, the Pens could once again fall victim to this lively pooch.
The Islanders have defeated Pittsburgh in three of the past four meetings. The Islanders are also very warm at the moment, having picked up points in five straight games (3 wins and 2 OT losses) and that includes victories over two of the hottest teams in the league, Montreal and Washington. Not only did the Islanders win those two games but they scored a combined 11 times in doing so against two of the better defensive clubs in the NHL. Their offense is clicking, their power-play is on fire and whether they're facing Marc-Andre Fleury or Tomas Vokoun, chances are the Penguins are going to have to score a bunch to beat them.
ANAHEIM -½ +120 over St. Louis
Regulation only. Yesterday we suggested that the Blues are in a lot of trouble and then they went out and beat the Sharks in San Jose. Trailing 3-1 going to the third period, the Blue Notes scored a soft goal on Antti Niemi in the first four minutes of the final period. A minute later they scored another awful goal. Niemi was pulled, the life was taken out of the Sharks and the Blues went on to win in OT. The Blues will play their fifth straight road game here and third in four days.
The Ducks are 10-1 at home. Their 81 goals scored are tops in the West and second in the league behind Pittsburgh. Since a 5-0 loss to Vancouver in their home opener, the Ducks have outscored opponents 35-16 while running off 10 consecutive victories at the Pond. They'll get a crack at Jaroslav Halak here, a goaltender that has missed much time this season and whose confidence is shaken. Halak has posted a 3.40 GAA while losing his last three in Anaheim. Additionally, the Ducks have won five straight and 15 of the last 18 at home in this series. Expect more of the same here.
Re: Free Picks: Service Plays for Sunday, March 10
Cleveland at Toronto
Pick: Cleveland +5.5
Overachieving Cleveland continues to surprise, on a 7-3 ATS run. This young team hustles and has Kyrie Irving back, off a 24-point game against Memphis. The Cavaliers are 6-1 ATS against the Eastern Conference and 10-2 ATS in their last 12 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. Toronto has a losing home mark and is home from a four-game road trip, losing three of them. The Raptors are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games overall and 1-4 ATS in their last five home games. The Cavaliers are 14-6 ATS in the last 20 meetings in Toronto, the road team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and the underdog is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings. Play the Cavaliers.

Philadelphia 76ers -1.5
After the disaster that was their home loss against Orlando, where Coach Collins threw his players under the bus after the game, Philadelphia has been showing some competitiveness. On their last game at Miami, the Sixers were competitive and they were only down by 75-76 at the end of the third quarter. Then, the Heat set up their extra gear and beat them comfortably down the stretch, but Philadelphia left a good image on that game. The Sixers will definitely come fired up to get revenge from their humiliating home loss against Orlando. In that game, Philadelphia's lack of aggressiveness was visible on their shot locations: 8-10 FG at the rim and 1-5 FG from 3-9 feet versus 9-28 FG from 16-23 feet and 7-21 treys! The Sixers refused to work on the down low against Orlando's awful interior defense! From the several humiliating factors in that game, perhaps the worst one was Nikola Vucevic (a former Sixers player) having 19 rebounds, while Spencer Hawes had just 1 rebound in 21 minutes!
On the other hand, Orlando is already rotating their players without much worries, as they are already thinking about the draft. Tobias Harris has been playing at the PF position and it looks like he will remain on that position tonight, so this is excellent news for Thaddeus Young, who seems to be back at 100% after an injury, as he had 12-15 FG and 25 points against Miami on the team's last game! Jameer Nelson has returned to the Magic's lineup and on the three players that he has already played since his comeback, he looked very far from his level (34.9% FG and 4.3 turnovers per game), while showing no effort on defense. Jrue Holiday will surely have a huge edge over him tonight.
With the Sixers fired up and while having more talent than Orlando, who won't be worried about winning tonight, especially as they will host the Lakers on their next game, in a game where they will certainly motivated in facing Dwight Howard. Therefore, I expect an easy win for Philadelphia today and so, I'll be taking them tonight on a Double Dime Play!

Miami Heat -7
The Miami Heat (46-14, 31-29 ATS) have won 17 straight games and they now face the last team to beat them and probably their biggest threats in the East in the Indiana Pacers (39-23, 35-27 ATS) at American Airlines Arena in Miami Sunday at 6:00 ET on NBA TV. In fact, Indiana is 2-0 vs. the Heat this season, although both of those Pacer wins came at home, but make no mistake, the Pacers are probably the only team in the East and may even the entire NBA that can challenge Miami in a seven-game series because of their tenacious defense. They will not be intimidated by playing in South Beach either after winning here during the playoffs last season, so this could turn out to be one of the best games of the year!
The Pacers probably have the best defense in the NBA. They are in a virtual tie with the Memphis Grizzles for first in points against at 89.5 per game, and they lead the league outright in field goal percentage allowed at 41.4 percent, three-point defense at 31.9 percent and in defensive efficiency, grading out at 95.3 points per 100 possessions, significantly better than the Grizzlies in second (97.2). The only reason that the Grizzlies are right there in points allowed is because they play at the third slowest pace in the league. The Pacers meanwhile can boast that they have one of the best perimeter defenders in the NBA in Paul George and also one of the best interior defenders in Roy Hibbert, so it is no wonder that teams have not been able to score against them, and that includes Miami, which has scored 77 and 89 points respectively in the two losses this year. Furthermore, those two Indiana wins came before the improvement of its offense. While the Pacers still rank just 25th in the NBA in scoring at 94.1 points per game, that average has shot up to 101.5 points over the last 10 games with Indiana going 8-2 in those contests, and one of the two losses came when Hibbert sat out a one-game suspension vs. the L.A. Clippers.
Now the entire Miami team and LeBron James in particular have obviously been on a different plane than the rest of the league lately, and the natural knee-jerk reaction here would be to expect somewhat of a blowout as Miami avenges its two losses to the Pacers. The only problem with that logic is that it would be hard to argue against Indiana having the superior defense in this game and the Pacers easily have a better defense than any team that the Heat have beaten during the 17-game win streak. Yes, James has been out of this world as he is threatening to become the first player in NBA history to average at least 26 points, eight rebounds and seven assists per game while shooting at least 56 percent from the field over an entire season. However, George has shadowed LeBron well in the first two meetings, as while James averaged 25.0 points, he needed a lot of shots to do so shooting 51.4 percent. The revenge motive may drive the Heat to victory, but it should be far from easy and it is difficult to pass up a decided underdog that plays defense the way that Indiana does.
The Pacers are 13-5 ATS in their last 18 games overall and 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games after scoring at least 100 points in their previous game. As hot as Miami has been on the court, the Heat are just 2-5 ATS in their last seven games overall, and they are also 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games vs. the Central Division.

From Barnes & Noble
For twenty-five years, the simple, handsome desk had been her writing nook; then one day, a woman claiming to be the daughter of its previous owner appeared at her door to retrieve it. That woman was an impostor and her theft the first falling domino in Nicole Krauss' elegant new tale of secrets, subterfuge, and recovery. This subtle, enthralling novel drew this pre-publication rave: "The richness of invention, the beauty of the prose, the aptness of her central images (oh, the desk!), the depth of feeling: Who could not be moved?"

Cat Chemotherapy Drug Side Effects
Cat Chemotherapy Drug Side Effects
Chemotherapy treatments for Cat Cancer, does not have the same degree of side effects in cats as it does in humans. Cats are given lower doses than humans. Side effects will also vary with the drug used. The decision to use chemotherapy to treat cancer in cats can prove to be a very expensive one. The fees will depend on the size of the cat. The larger the cat, the more medication needed and consequently the higher the fees. Chemotherapy can run into thousands of dollars, but you will pay with each visit and not in one lump sum. If you have cat insurance, you will probably be reimbursed for some of the money you pay.
Typical side effects
Side effects will vary with the drug used, but some are fairly common with all of them in both cats. Diarrhea is one side effect that is very common and therefore your vet may give you a round of flagyl to help with the diarrhea. Several days after the treatment, you will be happy to have it on hand. Your cat will have a decrease in appetite with some and an increase with others. The same will apply with thirst. It is always wise to pay attention to your cat's water consumption. They should be encouraged to drink more and flush the medications out of their bodies.
Prednisone is not specifically a chemotherapy drug. It will however buy some time and may be used as part of the protocol. It is also used to counteract some of the negative side effects. With prednisone you can expect the following.
• Some mild changes in their behavior
• Less tolerant to exercise
• Low white cell count
• Inflammation and possible damage to the injection site
• There can be tremors which may indicate the low white count
• Low white cells
• Bladder toxicity which and lead to blood in the urine and cystitis.

If your cat receives an excessive amount of this drug during their chemo treatment, it can cause heart problems. It has a cumulative effect on the heart. Some veterinarians will do a chest film or ultrasound prior to the treatment to assure that the heart has not been damaged. There are some vets who recommend CoQ10 as a supplement during the administration of this drug.
There are other drugs that can be used as well. A lot will depend on the success of the one that is being used. If it is not affecting the tumors, your veterinary oncologist may opt to change it to another.

Melinas Conquest
50 - 100 downloads
- Brave indie project
- Must be improved in several areas
+ By Game Scorpion Inc.
"C'mon, Melina!"
Reviewed by Peter Warrior / Nov 22, 2012
An indie 3D RPG
Melina, perhaps named after the Mexican pro-wrestler, is a female human polygonal fighter that seems brought by a DeLorean from the times of Tomb Raider 1, in this indie 3D RPG full of polygonal monsters, polygonal traps and, unfortunately, polygonal storyline, so to speak. Music isn't polygonal -how that can be?- but has that SNES scent you may like or be so fed up with. In her magical world, Melina will have to tap and slash her way to discover what has happened to her former mentor. In her way you will have to face monsters, some larger than others.
It's a pity that how much effort ended in something somehow unfinished. While playing, you will have to turn a blind eye to not see glitches here and there, and tame the controls to try to know where are you attacking at. In the meantime, there are some NPCs with allegedly fun dialogues.
Anyway, Melina comes with hours of action, so perhaps you would like to give her a go, errr, you would like to give Melina's Conquest a go and have an opinion for yourself.

This adventure begins with a 10 week island hopping extravaganza across Indonesia and its "sultry kaleidoscope" of cultures and contrasts. From the jungles of Sumatra to the artistic traditions of Yogyakarta, from heavenly Bali to the empty beaches of Flores the route includes several inter-island ferry rides, enabling participants to immerse themselves in the intoxicating local foods and customs and sights en route. After a flight from East Timor to Darwin the cyclists continue to pedal across the Outback and along The Great Ocean Road, via Alice Springs & the magnificent Uluru (Ayers Rock), Adelaide (& its vineyards) and Melbourne, before finishing at the iconic Sydney Opera House.
The Trans-Oceania is our newest long distance cycling expedition, and at almost 11,200 kilometers, the 7th of our 7 Epics.
It features 2 distinct halves, beginning with a 10 week Island hopping extravaganza across Indonesia and its "sultry kaleidoscope" of cultures and contrasts. After a short flight from Timor to northern Australia, we then embark on an 8 week trans-continental spin across the Outback and along The Great Ocean Road, via Alice Springs, Adelaide and Melbourne, before finishing at the iconic Sydney Opera House.
This tour features the most rest days – 34 in all – of any of our Epic Tours, along with several inter-island ferry rides, enabling participants to immerse themselves in the intoxicating local foods and customs and sights en route. From the jungles of Sumatra to the artistic traditions of Yogyakarta, from heavenly Bali to the empty beaches of Flores, from magnificent Uluru (Ayers Rock) to the vineyards of South Australia, the Trans-Oceania most certainly is another one of the adventures of a lifetime that we offer.
*the quotations in the Trans-Oceania route descriptions are all credit Lonely Planet Guides
Our tour begins in the northern Sumatra port of Medan. After 2 days of peddling into the Island's interior, we arrive at mystical Danau Toba, the largest lake in SE Asia, set among volcanic peaks and the traditional villages of the Batak people. From there we head south past lush paddy fields, imposing volcanoes, and ubiquitous mosques to another rest day in the market town of Bukittinggi. The Indian Ocean greets us near Padang, the urban centre of the matrilineal Minangkabau culture (wherein women tell men what to do), and remains our close by companion through Bengkulu and onto Carita on Java's west coast. There riders can take a boat ride to the infamous volcanic island of Krakatoa, before we cross the Sunda Strait to Java.
This shorter section highlights the western half of Indonesia's most densely populated island. Javanese culture is a "cocktail of pre-Hindu, Hindu and Islamic influences." From Carita, we'll ride south to avoid the hustle and pollution of greater Jakarta, and meander through tea plantations and terraced fields. At Pandangaran riders can enjoy Java's premier beach and visit a national park set in dense jungle before peddling on to the artistic and cultural capital of Yogyakarta. Here a double rest day will allow you to see the city's famous walled palace or Kraton area and the nearby Borobodur Temple Compounds, which are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Leaving Yogya, we'll ride towards East Java province, a wild rolling region of towering peaks, smoking volcanoes and unspoilt panoramas. After the temple-ringed and Dutch colonial hilltop city of Malang, we'll pause in Bromo Tengger Semeru Park, home to the Gunung Semeru volcano, Indonesia's highest peak. Then it's across the Ijen plateau, another beautiful and forested volcanic region, to Ketapang and a quick ferry ride across the Bali Strait to Gilimanuk. From there we cycle along Bali's northwest shoreline to Lovina, before heading inland and completing this section in Ubud, the center of Bali's unique version of Hindu culture.
Many of us have dreamed of taking tramp steamers from one island paradise to another, and leaving the modern world behind. This section of the trans-Oceania odyssey turns that fantasy into reality, as we traverse the Nusa Tenggara region, spinning our wheels from Hindu Bali, across Islamic Lombok and Sumbawa, to Catholic Flores, and finally Timor. En route you can relax on remote pink sand beaches, sup on an endless variety of seafood, snorkel or dive coral reefs teeming with marine life, encounter Komodo Dragon lizards, explore remote villages of beehive houses on West Timor, and kick back on the ferry rides from one island to the next. This section ends in Dili, capital of the newly independent nation of Timor-Leste, from where we will fly across the Timor Sea to Darwin in Australia's Northern Territory. We wouldn't be surprised if a rider or 2 decided to forego their plane ticket and settle permanently on one of these idyllic isles.
The 2nd half of our Epic trans-Oceania ride begins in tropical Darwin, which has evolved from "brawling frontier outpost" to cosmopolitan small city, fuelled by mining, tourism and crocodiles. After stocking up and making sure we have plenty of Fosters in the "eskie" (cooler) we'll head off on the Stuart Highway and into the Outback, a vast tract of "scrublands, red desert sands, and galloping roadside Emus." 300 km down the road our first rest day will be in the town of Katherine from where riders can visit the picturesque sandstone gorges at Nitmiluk National Park or the Cutta Cutta Caves. Continuing south we'll encounter the fascinating ghost town of Newcastle Waters before arriving in Tennant Creek, which services the region's remote cattle stations and aboriginal communities. Further on we'll pass by piles of gigantic boulders known as the Devil's Marbles and camp at roadhouses en route to Alice Springs, known to locals simply as "Alice." Here, a triple rest day marks the end of this section and will give our intrepid cyclists plenty of time for the 450 km side trip by bus or by plane to astonishing Uluru (Ayers Rock).
Continuing south from Alice through Australia's desolate "red heart", with road trains and kangaroos as our companions, we'll eventually arrive in the opal mining center of Coober Pedy, which has been the base for "end of the world' movies including Mad Max. Then it's across the government-owned Woomera Prohibited Area, the western world's largest ground and airspace weapons testing range, to the eerie village of Woomera, home to rocket scientists and a Missile Park. Our tran-Outback "rideabout" ends at Port Augusta, the "Crossroads of Australia," at the top of Spencer Gulf. From there it's a 3 day spin through South Australia's fabled wine country to the sophisticated city of Adelaide, which is renowned for its many festivals and culinary delights. After our month long journey down the Stuart Highway, Adelaide may feel like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Here you can spend your rest day visiting the superb central market, wandering thru botanical gardens and art galleries, or imbibing Shiraz and Riesling at the National Wine Centre.
This 12 day section highlights the South Australia and Victoria State coastlines. Our reluctance to leave Adelaide's wine bars behind is quickly forgotten, as we cross the Murray River and cycle along the Limestone Coast through the fertile lagoon landscapes of Coorong National Park. We will wind our way past Discovery Bay to the whale watching centre of Warrnambool. The incredibly scenic 250 km Great Ocean Road, an Australian National Heritage, begins at Allansford, and takes us along the rugged Shipwreck and Surf coasts, through rainforests, and past sheer cliffs, waterfalls, and fantastic rock formations including the 12 Apostles. This stretch of our expedition ends in Melbourne, Oz's 2nd largest city and the centre of its rabid Aussie Rules Football (footy) culture. Melbourne is packed with attractions, and you'll have a rest day to explore its vibrant atmosphere, from laid-back laneways and lush parks to grand museums and sumptuous restaurants.
The final section of our two-wheeled odyssey takes us across the much varied terrain of Oz's south-east corner. After cycling through Gippsland Lakes Coastal Park, we leave the Tasman Sea behind, and climb over the Australian Alps on secondary roads, into the planned city of Canberra, the national capital and political heart. The excitement builds as we enter New South Wales and near our ultimate destination, world class and diverse Sydney. No doubt we'll celebrate long and hard, in true Aussie style, as we spin up it's magnificent natural harbour and clamber off our bikes for the last time at the iconic Opera House. It's gonna be tough to bid farewell to our cycling comrades, but hopefully, before heading home, we'll all spend a little more time together, over some Fosters at Bondi Beach, relishing the many adventures since we departed Medan several moons ago.

Dreaming of Warmer Locales: Palm Springs
13 comments :
It is really an interesting place. I've only seen it in movies! I am ready for spring as well. had bitter cold temps and high winds this past weekend....yuck, I couldn't even take my walks for long. Have a great week Janell.ReplyDelete
Do Nancy
Yes, I have been there many times, fun 50's architecture everywhere. Hugs, MartyReplyDelete
Yes, let's go! There are many cool/swanky looking hotels there, and some sunny warm weather sounds great right about now!ReplyDelete
We spent a week in Palm Springs this past September and had an amazing time. I thought I would hate the desert and its parched air and lack of color, but then the stark beauty took my breath away. I posted about it here: http://www.fieldstonehilldesign.com/2012/10/the-sculptural-desert.htmlReplyDelete
You must go to the spas, and eat at Copleys!
Now I am going to get NO work done. Dreaming of VACA!!
Hi Janell!ReplyDelete
Your timing is funny - we just booked a trip to Palm Springs for Memorial Day weekend! We have friends coming to visit us here in Portland for spring break and I too was feeling the gloom and need to go somewhere warm.....Memorial Day it is!
Hope you are well....
Looks like the perfect destination for a Girls Weekend...meet you there! :)ReplyDelete
Now there is a great idea! Janell
I love Palm Springs! Growing up we always spent our spring break week as a family vacation there. Lots of great memories of wonderful times spent in Palm Springs. May I invite myself on your girl's weekend there? I'm kidding of course but it would be a fun time!ReplyDelete
I have never been to Palm Springs, but I love the modern homes and the warm weather. I have been to California many times, and heading back this fall. This post just inspired me to add Palm Springs to be destinations list.ReplyDelete
I haven't been, but it is definitely on the list! I love the images you showed. Just how I picture it to be. :)ReplyDelete
Love all those vintage pics of Palm Springs!!!ReplyDelete
Those mid-century houses are my favorite homes ♥
A trip to Palm Springs is definitely on my to do list!
Definitely an interesting (and warm!) place to go. We went a few years ago after business meetings in L.A. and it was the perfect respite! Also, the Joshua Tree park nearby is a fascinating drive through..ReplyDelete
I have always wondered what the allure of Palm Springs is. I've only seen it in movies myself, mostly depicting mid-century party scenes!ReplyDelete

The toughest thing about being a sports fan is staying true to your team when they lose.
Carolina Panthers fans who gathered Sunday at Half Time Pub & Grub in New Bern to watch the Panthers' playoff game with San Francisco were excited before and early into the game.
It was the Panthers' first trip to the NFL playoffs in several years, and they have been an NFL surprise this year. Most of the fans vowed their loyalty, having endured losing seasons.
Continued fan support will be needed after a 23-10 loss Sunday to San Francisco.
"I've been a fan since they started," said Matt Sard of New Bern, who brought his fan-family — wife, Renee, and son, Dylan. "I watch them every chance I get. It's a tradition."
Warren Petersen is from Florida and staying in New Bern for his job, building some barracks at Cherry Point air station.
"I'm a Panthers fan, now," he said. "I like what they have done this season. They have showed some guts and I will back a team like that."
However, Petersen's true allegiance is with the Green Bay Packers, who had lost to San Francisco in last week's Wild Card playoff round.
Petersen said he liked the Panthers and New Bern, finding Half Time is a good place to watch football games.
"I heard about this place in September and I didn't know the people," he said. "But, there are no strangers here."
Neil Lotridge of New Bern wore a No. 1 jersey Cam Newton jersey, the most popular Panthers' gear worn by many patrons. He bought the jersey when Newton was drafted three years ago.
Lotridge is 23, and the Panthers have been his only NFL team. He is moving to the nation's capital later this month, but doesn't plan to change his allegiance to the Washington Redskins.
Half Time owner Casey Aylward, a "die-hard" Panthers supporter, said when big games are on TV, the take-out business for the restaurant's 17 flavors of chicken wings goes up.
Jamie Franklin of New Bern had large bag of wings under his arm as he and his wife, Stacy, and 3-week-old Landon headed to a relative's house to watch the game.
"I've got to pull for the home team," he said.
One couple admitted they are not true Panthers' fans, but they came to Half Time to root for the Charlotte-based team because of friends.
Tim and Danielle Shattuck also were celebrating some events more important than a football game: They were married in October, her birthday was Sunday and they recently found out there is a baby on the way.
The baby will face a mixed-bag decision on NFL teams. Mom is from New York and a Giants fan and dad favors his hometown Oakland Raiders.

Finally a tire that integrates engineering with artistry. A masterful blend of form with function. Ride comfortably in secluded calm and quiet as you take control of the road. One caveat, you may end up disillusioned with other tires.
UNI-T AQ™II Technology to provide excellent wet handling even as the tire wears.Real Black Sidewall keeps blackness even after years of use.100,000km (60,000 mile) treadwear rating.
I've got these 5 years ago and currently have 100,000 miles on them. They are the Alenza(not plus model)I can still go another 20,000 easy. I am about to get a new set of the same, this time the Plus type.
For those that claim early wear, there are many factors. Alignment, frequent rotations, and balancing are important. Also, the tire pressure and driving manners. Aggressive cornering and turning will shorten any tire lifespan.
These are great tires.

Bought a set of these tires for my wife`s Tahoe. They currently have around 19,000 miles on them and are wore down to the tread bars. The front end alignment was checked when the tires were installed and found no problems. We do very little gravel road driving so it has to be the tires.

Todd Blackadder has made three changes and one positional switch to the Crusaders pack ahead of their match against the Chiefs on Friday.
World Cup-winning front-rowers Owen Franks and Corey Flynn start for the first time this season, while Luke Romano comes into the second row. Sam Whitelock moves to the bench for this clash, meaning Tom Donnelly will shift to No 5 and Romano will start at No 4.
Blackadder has also opted to hand Zac Guildford his first start of 2012. Guildford made his return from suspension off the bench last week, and will now start against the Chiefs in a back three that includes Sean Maitland and Israel Dagg. Interestingly, Blackadder has decided that Maitland will replace Tom Marshall at fullback and not Israel Dagg.
Crusaders – 15 Sean Maitland, 14 Israel Dagg, 13 Robbie Fruean, 12 Adam Whitelock, 11 Zac Guildford, 10 Tyler Bleyendaal, 9 Andy Ellis, 8 Kieran Read (c), 7 Matt Todd, 6 George Whitelock, 5 Tom Donnelly, 4 Luke Romano, 3 Owen Franks, 2 Corey Flynn, 1 Ben Franks.
Subs: 16 Quentin MacDonald, 17 Wyatt Crockett, 18 Sam Whitelock, 19 Luke Whitelock, 20 Willi Heinz, 21 Tom Taylor, 22 Tom Marshall.

CHARLOTTE (AP) — Panthers owner Jerry Richardson doesn't need to remind coach Ron Rivera just how important winning in 2013 is to his future as an NFL head coach.
He already knows.
Rivera told The Associated Press Tuesday that when he met with
"He doesn't want me looking over my shoulder," Rivera said. "He wants me to coach."
But while the coach said
"I understand we need to win — and he knows I understand that," Rivera said. "He's been forthright and direct. Now it's up to me."
The 76-year-old
The Panthers responded by winning five of six games down the stretch, including their final four to finish in second place in the NFC South. After more than a week deliberating,
But to say Rivera's job is secure would be a stretch, particularly if the team gets off to another slow start next season. The Panthers have started 2-8 in each of the last two seasons under Rivera, essentially ruining any shot at the playoffs. They're 9-3 overall in post-Thanksgiving Day games. That strong finish — and the promise of a brighter future — helped save Rivera's job.
"We have to continue that trend," Rivera said. "We cannot take a step back. I know that. The players know that. The coaches know that. But it's going to be up to me — and deservedly so. I'm the head coach and that's why I've done the things I've done this offseason."
One of those things was to promote quarterbacks coach Mike Shula as the team's new offensive coordinator to replace Rob Chudzinski, who left the team to become the head coach of the Cleveland Browns. Shula's track record in his previous four seasons as an offensive coordinator with
Rivera said Shula's working knowledge of the
"I think the way
He didn't want to ruin that momentum by forcing
"That was it," Rivera said. "Mike was with (the other candidates) step-for-step in terms of offensive thinking and planning and strategy. But the bottom line is familiarity with who we are as a football team.
"You also have to be concerned (with a new coordinator) with how much of what you do will he use and how much of what he's done in the past will he add? The thing I felt like we needed to do was stick to what we did down the stretch, refine those things and, in some cases, correct the things we had problems with. Listening to Mike, if we were going to add something it was going to be in line with what we've done in the past."
Rivera believes strengthening the team's line play is a priority on offense and developing the team's young receivers is a must. Defensively, he likes the front seven but said the young secondary will need to grow up in a hurry. He also wants to find a dual threat return man and most consistency from his young kickers Graham Gano and Brad Nortman.
Most of the improvements will have to come from players on the roster because at $16 million over the projected salary cap the Panthers will be doing more subtracting than adding to their current roster this offseason. Still, Rivera remains optimistic.
"I think this team can grow into a playoff team, I really do," Rivera said. "Mostly because of the way we played down the stretch and who we beat down the stretch. It's not like we beat teams that were all under .500 or we beat teams that didn't have good players. To me, that shows you are trending in the right direction, and I think that is important."

Softball Runs into Thursday Sweep as Limestone Claims 3-0, 4-1 Wins in Home Finales
April 12, 2012
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Limestone College used solid pitches in both ends of Thursdays Conference Carolinas softball doubleheader to sweep Pfeiffer University 3-0 and 4-1 at Jack Ingram Field. The Saints move to 23-25 overall, 13-9 in league play while the Lady Falcons drop to 18-33, 7-13.
All three Saints runs were unearned beginning with one in the second as an infield single Shelby Webb (Hilliard, FL) scored Dallas Heaton (Asheboro, NC). Insurance in the form of two in the seventh aided Limestone as Kirstyn Burleson (Candler, NC) picked up a RBI-single to left while Jordan Smith (Goose Creek, SC) drew a bases loaded walk.
Sadie Saine (Crouse, NC) would start the best inning for the Lady Falcons with a leadoff double in the seventh while Andrea Wagner (Wauseon, OH) followed on a hit-by-pitch, but both runners would be stranded at second and third as the game came to an end.
Webb, despite the Lady Falcons out-hitting the Saints 6-5, got the win in the circle for the Saints going the distance recording the shutout on six hits with three strikeouts.
In game two, Limestone exploded for their four in the fourth starting with a Jenna Guse (Pearland, TX) RBI fielders choice. Caroline Childers (Seagrove, NC) would later score on a wild pitch before Alex Aburto (Libertytown, MD) picked up a run-scoring infield-single. Smith finished off the fourth with her own fielders choice to score Guse.
Pfeiffer would respond with their lone run in the fourth as an Ashlee Ellen (Jacksonville, FL) infield single off the pitcher Leah Quant (Charlotte, NC) would bring home Celia Dew (Sanford, NC). Quant picked up the complete game win allowing the one run on five hits with five strikeouts.
The Lady Falcons will now advance to their 2012 regular season finale on Saturday at North Greenville with a trip to the Conference Carolinas tournament on the line. First pitch Saturday will be at 1:00 p.m.

Anticipated Group Interaction: Valence Asymmetries in Attitude Shift
2007, Journal of Consumer Research
Adam Duhachek, Shuoyang Zhang, H. Shanker Krishnan
Many consumer decisions are influenced by social interaction with other consumers. This research proposes that negative group information induces asymmetric effects on individual attitudes toward a product, depending on anticipated group interaction as a moderating variable. More specifically, negative group information is expected to induce more attitude change on consumers who hold positive attitudes. However, an opposite pattern of results is predicted when consumers anticipate discussing their product attitude with a group. Namely, negative group information should stimulate more attitude change on consumers who hold negative attitudes. In two experiments, we show reliable support for this interaction between individual attitude valence, group attitude valence, and anticipated group interaction. We also provide evidence in support of the theoretically predicted mechanism responsible for these effects. Implications for the emerging consumer literatures on valence asymmetry and anticipated group interaction are discussed.
Duhachek, Adam, Shuoyang Zhang, and H. Shanker Krishnan (2007), "Anticipated Group Interaction: Coping with Valence Asymmetries in Attitude Shift," Journal of Consumer Research, Vol. 34, No. 3, pp. 395-405.

I got notice that 3 songs are available for download in the German iTunes store.
Still no info from HCC.
This is sad.
Update: The three tracks were available first on iTunes, then on Spotify. Last ones to get the tracks were - why of course! - HCC fan club members. I would have thought HCC members would be treated with a little more exclusiveness, for lack of a better word. It was cool to get the first glimpse of the cover art, but when it comes to the good stuff, we're thrown the bone that others have gnawed off.
Am I the only one disappointed in that matter?
I'm happy with the quality of the mp3s though. 320kbit have calmed the waves for me.
Keep your shirt on people. You'd think you're not going to eat for a day or something. The record will get here and I'm sure Tom will make it right with the people in Lincoln and Kansas City. There are plenty of other fans not getting a shot to see the band either. I bought my membership before seeing the dates and there not coming to my town.
I totally agree! They haven't come to our city in several decades, that doesn't make me any less a fan! Instead we travel to the cities they are playing in: Charlotte, Raleigh, Halifax, Toronto, London Ontario. This year we are driving again but that's okay! As for cancelling a venue....bands do this from time to time - David Bowie, Stones, Neil Young, Long John Baldry to name a few..........it happens! I had tickets to TPHB years ago to a concert that was cancelled - it happens! I had my membership before the tour was posted as well.
No email or info. #waiting
My thoughts exactly. It's June 3rd....
Well? It's June 3rd.
Since my membership is paid up until September 2014 am I able to get the free download of Hypnotic Eye and the 2013 tour, or was I supposed to have renewed early?
Good question! I'm in the same situation.
But otherwise, THANK YOU!
No Google Play? :(
Awesome! Thanks HCC :)

VIRGINIA BEACH-- A winter warm-up is giving road repair crews a chance to tackle the massive potholes that popped up following the recent snow and ice.
In Virginia Beach, the Public Works department has three trucks putting temporary patches on reported troubled spots, including South Independence Boulevard.
'I keep a log of the locations that we went to with our temporary fixes, and after that when we get caught up, we go back and do the permanent patches,' said Robert Dillard, who oversees the city's $250,000 pothole repair program.
The city fixes more than 6,000 potholes each year and it's their policy to repair potholes within 48 hours after a complaint is made.
Water freezing in existing cracks in the asphalt causes the potholes. The city says that the salt in the solution they put down on icy roads is also a factor.
Each city in Hampton Roads, as well as VDOT, has a phone number and a website to report potholes. This not only helps crews locate the problems but starts the 48 hour repair policy.
If you report a specific pothole, and your car sustains damage because it was not fixed within 48 hours, you may be entitled to some kind of compensation.
In those cases VDOT will receive damage complaints and give them to their maintenance contractor for review, who will notify you of the outcome.
VDOT spokeswoman Brook Grow says in order to file a claim for reimbursement from the VDOT contractor responsible for roadway maintenance, you can send an email noting as many details as possible about the incident. Include the date and time in which the incident occurred, the exact location of the incident, and the direction you were traveling. If you have any supporting documentation such as photographs or insurance estimates, include this information with your letter.
Click here to submit your letter to VDOT or call 1-800-FOR-ROAD to report a roadway hazard.

Create a release using CVSNT
This tutorial describes how to create a release using CVSNT.
When running release:perform, I get an error message "Cannot execute mojo: resources. It requires a project with an existing pom.xml, but the build is not using one"
One cause of this is an incorrectly-specified
<scm> setting for the project being released. For example, you may have accidentally specified the SVN "root" for the project and not the /trunk or active branch. If this is the case, take a look at the target/checkout directory when you receive this message and you will find that trunk/tags/branches has been checked out for the build, instead of the release tag.
To correct this, edit your
<scm> in
pom.xml to point to the pre-tagged branch you are working on (usually trunk) i.e.
Note the presence of trunk in each URL.
What 'username' do I use for svn+ssh?
If your developerConnection uses svn+ssh, using public/private keys for svn authentication, you are probably connecting as user 'svn' (with your svn username being determined by your identity from your public key).
In this case you want to specify -Dusername=svn if you are authenticating with your own key.
If you use -Dusername=yourname you will need to have password access to your svn repository enabled.
Automatic build and deployment of javadoc and source jars.
The release:perform goal checks out the code from SCM and then builds the project together with javadoc and source jars, before deploying these jars to the specified repository. It is not necessary to include the javadoc and source plugins in your build profile - and if you do so these artifacts will be attached to the lifecycle twice: probably leading to a deployment failure if your repository is configured to disallow overwriting of released artifacts,
How do I ...?
You need to ...

Waco YKC-S
Gift of L. R. Smith, Jr.
The Weaver Aircraft Co. formed in 1920 produced a range of aircraft that were known as WACO's (pronounced \'wah-co\, an acronym of the company name). The company was renamed to Advanced Aircraft Co. in 1923 and finally in 1929 to the Waco Aircraft Co. Located in Troy, OH. They were a manufacturer of a wide range aircraft which were used in public, private, corporate and military applications. Waco withdrew from aircraft production in 1947 following a post-World War II slump in the aviation market. During the company's existence, they produced 62 different models and led all of its competitors in the number of aircraft registrations.
The YKC-S is a model from their Standard Cabin series of civilian biplanes. The design is unique in that the biplane wings are of unequal span and staggered. The Standard Cabin series with its cabin comfort became popular with private pilot owners. They were also purchased by small commercial aviation companies for light passenger and utility transport use.
Restored by Wingworks of North Canaan, CT, the Museum's is one of the finest examples of this aircraft model in the country. In 2003 it was the Antique Silver Age Champion at Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
You can view the Waco's interior cabin from our panorama page.
