I am currently 22 years old
And I am 64 years old...65 in about 3 months.
Well, if you are set on that path...then take it. For one thing, if you come to realise in a few years .... (NO ....22 is NOT old...and you can expect to live until well in to your late 60's or early 70's) ....then you can change your path at that time.
I always smile when I hear a person in his or her 20's say their life is a failure and they need to do something drastic to change it around for the better. I've been around to long to do anything but smile when I hear that.
In my life I have had 3 or 4 "life-changing" experiences.
I first "encounterd" Buddhisim when i was about 21, but being young and full of myself, I took no notice of it at the time.
By the time I was 30 I had a wife, a child....both of who were taken away from me by circumstances. I won't go into the story any further than that.
My early 30's were spent in booze and sex...no drugs however. Took about 6 years to realise that was a losing proposition. Left another woman in the process (turned out to be about the best thing I had done in my life up to that time}.
I found another woman who would tolerate me and a family to care for that I loved and who loved me.
Worked and was a "normal" productive citizen until I was about 55. Then some serious helath problems put me in the hospital for about a month.
Sometime in there my "contact" with Buddhism from when I was 21 blossomed into an "interest" and I've been growing that flower ever since.
I'm not beong crictical....but just remember this when you make it to your 60's.
Life is longer, more diverse, and has more twists and turns it than you can probably even imagine now.
Good luck on your path.

Home with model railroad wins Marysville award
Genna Martin / The Herald
The Drizzle & Downpour Railroad runs throughout the Elmores' back yard.
Genna Martin / The Herald
Michael and Janet Elmore won the 2013 Pride of Marysville Neighborhood Award for their home and lush garden, which features a model railroad and miniature town they have spent 25 years creating.
The yellow trilevel on the corner lot in Sherwood Forest subdivision won the 2013 Pride of Marysville Neighborhood Award.
Homeowners Michael and Janet Elmore are bursting with pride.
"We've worked hard on our house," Janet Elmore said. "It's a nice honor for us."
She doesn't know who nominated the house for the award. It could have been any of the admiring neighbors or thousands of trick-or-treaters over the past 38 years.
The annual award was launched in 2012 by Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring in a campaign to make the city a better place to live.
"It was part of the piece of the puzzle with the whole idea of cleaning up Marysville," Nehring said. "We wanted to highlight both residential homes and businesses."
A State Avenue office building won this year's award for Best Business, and the trendsetting makeover of office space downtown took the James Comeford/Mayor's Choice Award.
Nehring said the awards inspire others to spruce up their places. There are plans to expand the categories.
The Elmores' home, which has a model railway and lush garden in back, was chosen for its total good looks.
Nominators said the couple's eye for detail extends from the back yard to the landscaping and elegant design in front.
Janet Elmore has lived in the three bedroom, 2½ bath house since it was built. Michael joined her in 1981.
It has since been a house filled with kids and then grandkids. "My grandson calls it a colonial home because I've lived here so long," she said.
The lot used to be forest.
"There were 30 fir trees," said Michael Elmore, a CAD designer at Cascade Surveying & Engineering in Arlington.
"They were huge," added his wife, a retired dental office coordinator.
Over the years the couple had most of the firs cut down and replaced with a variety of smaller trees to let light into the garden.
That's where the trains come in.
"We wanted something to accent the garden," Janet Elmore said.
They started the Colorado-themed railway with miniature town about 22 years ago and named it Drizzle & Downpour Railroad.
"All the while we were building it, that's what it did," she said.
They are constantly working on the railroad. It has about 500 feet of track with about 25 buildings including saloons, a bank, a church, a hardware store and a hotel.
The railroad garnered national attention when it was featured in Better Homes & Gardens magazine in 2005.
It's a tour stop for hundreds of fellow train club members from all over the world.
The Elmores hand out frozen treats to visiting members and to neighborhood kids as well.
"That's one of our signatures," Michael Elmore said. "We offer them Popsicles."
Next summer, the couple plans to have an open house for the public to see Drizzle & Downpour Railroad, with admission a canned good for the food bank.
Soon, the front yard will be a graveyard. Every year, they welcome several hundred kids who traipse through the tombstones on Halloween night.
"They come in vans," said Janet Elmore, who dresses as a witch. "It's pretty fun."
On Halloween they don't hand out Popsicles.

IMO Avignon is the biggest statement of the Incense series, but also the least wearable for me.
I prefer Kyoto and close behind it Jaisalmer. Avignon is straight up Catholic Mass to me. If you like that, go for it!
Thread: Comme des Garcon Incense Series
Many of you recommended that I try Avignon from the CdG Incense Series. I love it, and am considering purchasing a bottle. I wanted to see if you think any of the others in the incense series are worth sampling before I buy Avignon. What are your thoughts?

I have only tried Avignon , and it is one of the best fragrances I own ! But I was after the whole High Mass in a Catholic Church thing , so it suited me just fine ! ( being a lapsed Catholic probably has some bearing on this ! )
"Nothing breaks up a team faster than.. Herpes"
-- Top --
(1) Guerlain Tonka Imperiale (2) Creed Millesime Imperial
(3) Creed Silver Mountain Water (4) Creed Aventus
(5) Creed Green Irish Tweed (6) Thierry Mugler A*Men Pure Malt
(7) Amouage Reflection Man
Kyoto is the jewel of this line in my opinion. It is quite discreet, but still long lasting. Avignon and Zagorsk are a bit like sledge hammers. BTW, I own this full line.
Try all 5. They are, IMO, the very best fragrances in the CdG line up and all sample-worthy.
the whole Incense series are worth a sniff - different and unique, used to have all of them - each has its own pros and cons, but as soon as one of them ends I'm starting to miss it
+1 to Kyoto being worth trying before you buy Avignon. I prefer it.
Tom Ford Splits!!!! - Tobacco Vanille, Tuscan Leather, Oud Wood, Noir de Noir - PATCHOULI ABSOLU
Plum Japonais, Italian Cypress, Neroli Portofino, Costa Azzura, Azure Lime, Champacca Absolute
HARD TO FIND - Lavender Palm, Arabian Wood, and AMBER ABSOLUTE, etc...
Most of the time I am very proud of the Basenotes community. Time after time I have witnessed the thoughtfulness, empathy & genuine friendship that members of this community extend to others - oldtimers & newcomers alike. There are other times, however, when egos get the upper hand and civility goes out the window. My philosophy is that I won't say anything here that I would not say if you were standing in front of me. Welcome to Basenotes, each and every one of us. ~ TwoRoads
Got a sample of Avignon myself. I don't see this as one that I could really wear anywear. I guess being a very pure incense scent, it would be a great frag for layering, if you are into that sort of thing.
Kyoto is my favorite for sure!!!
Here's my take on them. Avignon is the sweetest of the line. For that reason, it may attract many people. Those who don't like that aspect then go for one of the other four. (That is my case, anyway. I own the other four)
Ouzazarte: the greenest of the lot. Dusky dry
Kyoto: the most woody.
Zagorsk: the most coniferous
Jaisalmer: interesting, complex with a bit of spice
"The force that through the green fuse drives the flower // drives my green age..." Dylan Thomas
Try them all - I agree.
Avignon is a staple for me, especially in fall and winter. I used to wear Kyoto almost daily, but, I have started to prefer Jaisalmer lately. I really enjoy the high pitched patchouli note behind all the other incense stuff in it.
The synthetic woods in all of them make them ridiculously tedious to wear.
I still own Avigon, Zagorsk and Kyoto, but prefer to just burn some quality Omani frankincense.
"Dont try to be original. Be simple. Be good technically, and if there is something in you, it will come out. - Henri Matisse.
"Wear R de Capucci" - Hirch Duckfinder
I only own Avignon and I love it, but I tried the other four last week. I like them all, but my second favorite would be Quarzazate. As Ody wrote, it is the greenest and very wearable.
Another vote for Kyoto. Avignon is really nice, but is *very* churchy. I think it'd work better as a home-scenting candle or something. Kyoto still has some major incense vibes going on, but is alot more wearable with the cedar and coffee (go figure) notes to balance it out. It's great in cold, still weather. None of them are work-scents in my book, but if you need a scent for wandering around a snow-covered forest and brooding in the middle of winter, Kyoto's your man.
I love all 5 of them. Each one is so diffirent from others. And Avignon is the best of them. Besides, Kyoto is great, too. If you want an everyday incense scent from Incense series, I think Kyoto is the best choice.
I like all of them, but I love Ouarzazate, which is a fantastic, dry and arid incense with a little cedar. Avignon and Kyoto are close, and I would very much like to own them as well, Zagorsk is lovely but rather austere. Jaisalmer is my least favourite of the series.
"Wovon man nicht lesen kann, darüber muss man schreiben."
Kyoto is my favorite, followed very closely by Ourzazate. I haven't tried Avignon, simply because I KNOW I won't like it. Zagorsk was also pretty gross on my skin.

Granted, we've known each other for some time. It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine. ~ Common Sense
I like them in the following order, but I've only purchased the first two. For some reason, I recall barely being able to smell Quarzazate, so it's by far my least favorite, but yes, everybody should test them all.
1. Avignon
2. Jaisalmer
3. Kyoto
4. Zagorsk
5. Quarzazate
My order:
Avignon is a must have in my wardrobe & is already in my LuckyScent shopping cart. I've tried a lot of incense fragrances & not one has come close to actually simulating the actual smell of old-world incense on a charcoal block. Avignon does. I have a sample of kyoto but haven't swiped it yet. I'll do so post-haste.
I think besides Avignon you should try Zagorsk.
Haven't tried all of them yet but i have a full bottle of Avignon and samples of Kyoto and Zagorsk.
I'd rate them as:
1. Avignon
2. Zagorsk
3. Kyoto
Planning to get samples of the others soon.
My faves are Kyoto and Quarzazate in this line. My personal favourite churchy incense is Messe de Minuit-Etro, very dark but wearable(esp. in the winter)
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
I tried the whole series. I really like Avignon and Kyoto. The rest were just OK to me.
Just purchased Kyoto! Found this dump hole in the wall "boutique" which happened to carry most of the GdC line! Unfortunately the only other IS they had was Zagorsk. Does anybody happen to have samples of the other 3?
jaisalmer is my fav.
Avignon is not bad but too much pencil mine vibe for me
my current top five (always in transition)
Dior Eau Noire
HdP 1725 Casanova
eau de gloire parfum d'empire
Dia man Amouage
comme des garçons man 2
with the exception of Jaisalmer which is a nice tiger-balm oriented fragrance, I find all the rest to be outstanding. My favorite is by all means Avignon.
Discover my Guest Reviewer Of The Day here
My favourites are Avignon and Zagorsk, the others are very good too. Kyoto always smelled like the most feminine of the series to me, Jaisalmer is the spiciest and least incense-ish, and Quarzazate was the least familiar smelling and most challenging.
owned all of them (currently own avignon, ouarzazate & jaisalmer) but i have to go against the trend and say that kyoto is my least favourite, partly because of a slightly sweet, damp/wet rag aspect to it, but also because i already own cdg monocle hinoki and christian lacroix tumulte which are very similar and superior to kyoto.
my favourite is avignon - catholic church, followed by zagorsk - greek orthodox church (& very austere).
- - - Updated - - -
Tried a few. Liked Avignon but did not buy it.
Kyoto. I bought a full bottle of Avignon but hardly ever wear it - although it's great. It's just too catholic. Kyoto is probably the best.
I'm thinking of blind buying Avignon in the morning.
Speaking as a lapsed Catholic I don't find Avignon all that churchified. Lots of Provencal rosemary in there. I do like it though. I have all of them except Jaisalmer. Zagorsk is my favourite.
I recently tried Exultat by Maria Candida Gentile; now that I DO find very churchy. It is quite lovely, more subtle than Avignon. And more complicated. I recommend it to any incense fan, it is one of the best.
Been wanting to try this series for quite some time..
I am a Kyoto Lover for sure.....This is Fantastic!!!
Kyoto is good but Avignon is legendary...
My current top ten:
1. Spice and Wood
2. Tonka Imperiale
3. Dior Homme
4. Pure Malt
5. Oud Wood
6. Ambre Nuit
7. L'air Du Desert Marocain
8. Noir de Noir
9. Apple Brandy
10.Straight to Heaven
In a world where 6 million people are added each month, every landscape matters.
I didn't get much out of the "uplifting" Jaisalmer and the "serious" Zagorsk. Frankly, it's the lack of longevity that disturbs me. I'm not to dismiss a fragrance quickly because it is light or so, but in case of Zagorsk I just have no time to enjoy it - it's vanished without a whimper (as a lover of all things Russian I have to say: what a pity). I should try Avignon soon, because it has a good reputation on basenotes. Dammit, I even may get my nose adjusted to the conception of this line.
That's the spirit; listening to Rachmaninoff's All-night-vigil while being drenched in Zagorsk...

Tisell Assists Twice; Moreno Stops All Shots as Men's Soccer Blanks Mount Olive 2-0
October 26, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. A pair of first half goals, one in the first 65 seconds, and solid defense led Pfeiffer University to a 2-0 victory over Mount Olive College in Conference Carolinas mens soccer action on Tuesday afternoon. Fourth time was the charm for both teams as the previous three attempts to play were rained out. The Falcons win their third-straight improving to 4-6-3 overall, 4-3-1 in league play, while the Trojans fall to 3-12-1, 1-7.
The first strike of the match came just 1:05 in as Johannes Tisell (Moindal, SWEDEN) scooped up a Mount Olive turnover at midfield and sent a touch pass to Alex Landim (Brockton, MA) who beat Trojan keeper Jamie Carano (Charlotte, NC) for the 1-0 lead.
Tisell sparked the second goal 25 minutes later eventually chipping a pass over to Ethan Sacco (Concord, NC) inside the six-yard box. Sacco quickly bumped a pass over to Jeff Cannon (Lewis Center, OH) with his chest, allowing Cannon to find the back of the net for the two-goal advantage.
Mount Olive out-shot Pfeiffer 15-12 overall, but the Falcons held the 7-5 edge with shots on goal. Three different Trojans fired three shots apiece as John Mendoza (Shallotte, NC) put two of his on cage. Alex Moreno (Huntersville, NC) earned the shutout in goal for the Falcons turning around five Mount Olive shots.
Pfeiffer now returns to action in less than 24 hours hosting Lander in non-conference action on senior day Wednesday at 3:00 p.m. The Falcons will honor nine seniors before the match.

STUDENTS have been advising Westmorland General Hospital on how it can provide more cost-effective and 'greener' heating.
Sixth-formers from Ripley St Thomas Church of England Academy in Lancaster worked with Morecambe Bay NHS Trust on the 'Hands On' project for eight months.
The pupils investigated the hospital's annual energy consumption to see how it could be done differently to cut carbon emissions and suggested using local suppliers as one option.
A SNOW leopard which featured in a movie starring Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman is the latest addition to a South Lakeland zoo.
Young male Pavan, one of two leopards who played the part of Stelamaria in The Golden Compass, will be housed in a walk-through enclosure at Lakeland Wildlife Oasis at Hale, near Milnthorpe.
Staff have created a homely feel for their new feline friend with the enclosure designed to look like a Himalayan village with plenty of rocks for him to climb and snooze on.
An acrylic tunnel running through the enclosure will allow visitors to see Pavan in his own habitat in what is thought to be the UK's first walk-through big cat exhibit.
Assistant manager of Lakeland Wildlife Oasis, Caroline Howard, said: "We're really excited about Pavan's arrival - he's a real celebrity cat! His new home is amazing. You can walk right through his territory while he ranges around you - even above your head!"
Pavan has arrived from UK charity the Cat Survival Trust which helps conserve endangered cats.
Once he has settled in his new environment, zoo staff hope to form a breeding pair by adding a female snow leopard to Pavan's enclosure.It is not known how many snow leopards are left in the wild but they are now classed as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis is joining the captive breeding programme which is run by the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

Stanwood girls hang on to beat Meadowdale 71-66
Tuesday night, with the game on the line, all the Spartans looked like experienced veterans.
Stanwood withstood a furious Meadowdale attack late in the game and hung on to defeat the Mavericks 71-66 in the first round of the 3A District 1 tournament.
"It's good just to get some confidence," Stanwood head coach Dennis Kloke said. "I have two players that played in districts last year, my two posts (Rachel Swartz and Tristan Murphy). Just from a confidence standpoint it's huge."
In the fourth quarter, it was an experienced senior -- Swartz -- and a district playoffs newcomer, junior Lauren Allison, who helped keep the Spartans ahead. Each player scored nine points in the final quarter, accounting for 18 of Stanwood's 23 points.
Allison finished with a team-high 18 points and three steals and Swartz recorded a double-double with 17 points and 14 rebounds -- eight of which came on the offensive glass. Murphy also had a double-double with 11 points and 12 rebounds, including 10 offensive boards.
"The story of this game was Stanwood outrebounding us by a huge margin," said Troy Parker, the Mavericks' head coach. "They were super-aggressive in the best way."
Stanwood needed all the points it could get because of an outstanding offensive performance by Meadowdale senior Julianne Kossian, who made seven 3-pointers and finished with a game-high 23 points.
"I think that's her high, probably of her career," Parker said. "Julianne is a kid that's been working hard. Nobody works harder than her. Although we lost, I'm happy on a personal level for her."
On the Stanwood bench, Kloke cringed with each Kossian 3-pointer.
"It was driving me nuts," Kloke said.
Meadowdale tied the score at 50 with a 3-pointer by Madison Parker, and made another basket to stay close to Stanwood 55-53. But the Spartans followed with an 8-2 run that built their lead to 63-55 with about three minutes to go.
The Mavericks -- which led 32-29 at halftime -- refused to give up. Meadowdale point guard Sara Fjortoft made two quick baskets to cut Stanwood's lead to 68-63 with 20 seconds remaining. Stanwood added a free throw before Keely Hayes made the Mavericks' 10th 3-pointer of the game and reduced the Spartans' lead to three, 69-66.
With five seconds to play in the game, Samantha Powell's two free throws to put the game out of reach for Meadowdale.
"It's a huge game," Kloke said. "Meadowdale is experienced and they're a tough matchup for us. They drive to the hoop and shoot 3's."
Kloke said he was happy with Stanwood (18-3 overall) for rebounding from a 64-39 loss to Shorewood in the Spartans' regular-season finale on Jan. 30. It was the only Wesco 3A loss of the season for Stanwood.
"The difference between this game and the Shorewood game, outside of the score, is when we made mistakes we flushed them quickly because we were mentally prepared to play," Kloke said. "? I'm pleased with the victory and I'm pleased with how the kids hung in there and competed. We found a way to win in the fourth quarter."
Along with Kossian, junior post Mackenzie Bretz provided some offense for Meadowdale (13-8) with 15 points, five rebounds and three steals. Ndey Sonko had eight points and grabbed six rebounds.
"We've been a really resilient team all year," Parker said. "Our girls have been in situations this year where we've been down in the fourth quarter. We don't panic. We make plays."
The victory puts Stanwood in the semifinals, where it will face Everett -- 55-46 winners over Shorewood Tuesday night. The Spartans went 2-0 against the Seagulls this season and are looking for another strong showing when the two teams meet at Glacier Peak High School at 8 p.m. Friday.
Kloke knows how important it is to get a victory in the winner-to-state game because of an incredibly strong field of teams in the 3A tournament. Stanwood is in the 3A tournament this year after moving from the 4A classification after last year.
"In comparison to what we played in last year, top to bottom, the teams are more evenly matched," Kloke said. "(The district tournament) is full of teams you don't want to play."
Meadowdale will face Wesco South 3A foe Shorewood for the third time this season. The Mavericks split the season series 1-1.
"We knew coming in this district is very even," Parker said. "There are three berths. We've got to win three straight now (to advance to regionals)."
Kloke, for one, thinks the Mavericks will do fine.
"I don't think Meadowdale's done," Kloke said. "They're going to give some teams headaches."

When Britney came to the ASPCA through the Humane Law Enforcement department, she was in pain and suffering from multiple untreated conditions.
Fortunately, the veterinary staff at the ASPCA's Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital was able to nurse Britney back to health, and eventually she became available for adoption; we could finally find a home for this sweet dog who had suffered so much.
We knew it would be a challenge.
Statistically speaking, animals who are black, large or senior, as well as those who take medication or can't live with other animals, usually spend more time waiting for homes. Britney was all of these things, and to make matters worse, she didn't engage much with adopters who passed her habitat, preferring to rest quietly.
Still, we knew that the right person would come for Britney, and to speed things along, we spread the word about this special canine. After seeing Britney's picture and reading about her, Kevin Bechard tells us, "I wanted to snatch her right up."
A few days later Bechard was going above and beyond to help Britney settle in to her new home in suburban Connecticut.
"The first couple nights I actually slept on the floor with her because she can't do stairs, and she would just reach out with her paw and make sure it was against me," he recalls. "Only then she would allow herself to go to sleep. If I moved away a little bit, her eyes would open."
The love and comfort of a forever home has revived Britney, who has blossomed into a trusting and happy pup: Bechard reports that at his house Britney loves romping outdoors and goes on multiple nature walks a day.
In return, Bechard has gained a new best friend who, he says, never required house-training or manners instruction, thanks to her age. "I wish more people would consider older dogs," Bechard says. "I was open to anything, but I was so pleasantly surprised."
I've cried tears of joy and I thank you for been am angel to these loving creatures that need us much and give us so much love and loyalty in return.
An example of nearness, affection and love between human and animals

Kevin, you're a human angel. I wish more would see what wonderful companions older dogs make. I also believe she is an angel, too; you're life will forever be richer because of her. A wonderful story; I hope you have a long, long time together.
What a heart warming story. You must be a really good person, Kevin and Britney is so fortunate....you BOTH are! I hope you are also good at spotting ticks on an old black, girl like her so she has many more years of good health...Lyme-free.
Thank you Kevin for giving Britney a 2nd chance in life and a forever loving home. She will repay you a thousand times over for your generous heart. I too encourage people to adopt senior dogs, they have so much love to give.
What a beautiful story. It's ashame people pass up older dogs. Just think of all the puppy training you can pass on.. =]
Best to both of you.xoxo
Thank you for caring and sharing your home with her. They give so much and ask so little. Jackie

Aw shucks, we're loved!
Centre for Brain Research
Mind Reading
'Mind Reading" was an entirely new venture for the Centre for Brain Research at The University of Auckland. We wanted to create an imaginative live event which would convey the excitement and capabilities of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, as part of Brain Awareness Week. Yet our experience is in more traditional public lectures, so this was truly breaking the mold. That's where Screentime came in. We put forward our ideas for a live brain scan event, where the audience would be taken on a journey into our central question - can we detect if someone is telling the truth or a lie? While we wanted top-notch professional quality production, we also had a minimal budget in which to do it!
Screentime were fantastic and came up with ideas for how we could generate maximum excitement and mystery, while also staying within our means. Not only did they produce five films about the science of brain imaging, but they also stage managed the final event. It was fantastic to have one company who could manage our production, so taking a lot of the stress and strains of event planning out of our hands.
The final product was not only a credit to the Centre for Brain Research and our sponsors Siemens, Auckland Museum, and the Royal Society of New Zealand, but also to Screentime. We filled our venue at the Auckland Museum to capacity, with 400 satisfied guests. And the production is now available across New Zealand thanks to a web player generated by Screentime.
Our brain imaging event has exceeded our expectations and I'd say it's thanks to Screentime!"

Ellsworth Truth SST.2 XC Full Suspension
|(1 Reviews)
Store PriceBuy Now
Product DescriptionThe legendary performance of the 100mm travel Truth sst.2 has been enhanced through fine tuning and tweaking over countless seasons of XC and endurance racing in every condition imaginable. With Ellsworth's proprietary ICT suspension, sst.2 tubing, a NEW lighter and stronger pivot integrated seat tube and a NEW semi-integrated tapered head tube - this is the fastest Truth ever created. From the Costa Rican mud and rainforest jungle of the La Ruta de los Conquistadores race, to the sands of the Mojave Desert, this bike is the number one choice of privateer racers. The Truth has done just that for almost two decades - and this year's Truth is better then ever. There are lots of bold claims out there, but how many of those have held up to two decades of consistently delivering on those claims? Truth - the name says it all. ICT? Technology: Instant Center Tracking? is internationally patented and quantifiably the most energy-efficient suspension design in the world, period. Internationally acclaimed, ICT four-bar linkage technology provides up to 100% pedal power efficiency by aligning the instant center of the linkage on the chain torque line and continually tracking it throughout the range of travel. What does that mean in layman?s terms? It means ICT allows pedal power to propel the rider forward without power loss, effectively avoiding the common suspension design flaw that divides pedal inputs into a wasteful combination of forward and vertical (jacking or bobbing) motions. ICT-equipped bikes are legendary for their rare combination of responsive performance and plush suspension that can be found nowhere else. All ICT-equipped bikes feature 12mm pivot axles and oversized bearings for superior pivot stability and lateral stiffness under power. Our commitment to raising the limits of suspension technology, innovation and performance.

Date Reviewed: October 25, 2013
Strengths: It's incredible how efficiently an Ellsworth climbs. I had always heard/read this but couldn't believe it until I gave one a shot. Plain and simple, you won't grasp this concept until you ride one. The chainstays are short enough that you can really flick the rear end of the bike around creating an all-around "fun" ride.
Weaknesses: In my opinion, the geometry of this bike is extremely race oriented if you have an above average inseam. This isn't a weakness to all but definitely takes the fun out of many technical descents, leaving me wanting more out of an every day ride and even the bike I take to races. Again, I'm 5'11" with a 32" inseam and this may be above average.
The value of an Ellsworth is not there in my mind. I've had the fortune of demoing Specialized, Giant, Ellsworth, Ibis, Kona, and more and for the price I'm not impressed. You get great craftsmanship with the Ellsworth but it doesn't do anything "The Best" yet you're paying top dollar. It won't outperform an Epic, only comes with a two-year warranty, and is riddled with a past of cracks, breaks, and failures. If you claim that your frame design has advanced beyond some of these earlier issues then you need to provide a warranty that instill's the customer with confidence (most riders cannot afford $2600+ frames every 2-3 years... will I need to if I buy an Ellsworth?).
Lastly, due to the "overall" poor image of Ellsworth's durability these bikes have below average resale. This isn't a big deal for most but if you want to replace your rig every 3-4 years or are worried about the frame lasting over the long haul then this will come into play.
Bottom Line:
Ellsworth's craftsmanship is top notch but you simply are not getting top value for your $4000-$8000 build.
As with all bikes, test before you buy.

Vaginal Cancer
Vaginal cancer facts*
*Vaginal cancer facts by John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
What is vaginal cancer?
Vaginal cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the vagina.
The vagina is the canal leading from the cervix (the opening of uterus) to the outside of the body. At birth, a baby passes out of the body through the vagina (also called the birth canal).
Vaginal cancer is not common. When found in early stages, it can often be cured. There are two main types of vaginal cancer:

This is one of the oddest scents I've ever sniffed, but I like it. I don't get the leather others mention, but there is a strange, head-clearing cold fresh rubber smell that wafts on top of a clean neutral musk. Think new tires. Sounds horrible but it's actually pleasant and unique.

Nevada, Newton and Sunbury Township Opposition to Wind Energy Permits (February 2010)
There were six measures about Township Opposition to Wind Energy Permits on the February 2 ballot in Livingston County for voters in the Nevada, Newton and Sunbury townships.
All six measures failed to pass.[1]
All three townships had the same two questions on their ballot. The first question asked voters to approve the opposition of filed wind energy special use permits that were filed before 2015. The second measure also asked voters to approval the opposition of wind energy permits, but specified that these permits would be about adding turbines to windmills.[2]

SEATTLE The two raccoons who had taken up residence on a Ballard crane had left by Thursday morning.
Traps set on the crane remained empty and the raccoons were no where to be found.
The raccoons had climbed 150 feet up a tower crane in Ballard, creating a home behind the crane s cab and temporarily bringing the giant machine to a halt.
The crane is being used to build a 304-unit apartment complex at 24th and Market. The building is scheduled to open in the summer of 2014.
A crane operator spotted the raccoons while ascending the tower early Wednesday. The general contractor, Rafn Company, quickly called experts, who unsuccessfully tried to catch the raccoons.
At one point a raccoon ran out on the jib, said Trent Kristjanson, who works at neighboring Limback Lumber Company.
It was definitely big, he said. The thing was like a dog.
Experts set humane traps with food to try to catch the raccoons. For now, the crane sits quietly, but other work continues on the construction site.
This is the first time I ve seen a raccoon in a tower crane, said project superintendent John Kellberg.
Neighbors said large raccoons are a common sight in Ballard. Tanya Agha, who works at Western Fire and Safety, said she recently had a run-in with one raccoon in an alley outside of her work.
It had me cornered in there for about three hours and I was too afraid to come out of there, she said.
The Rafn Company hopes to catch the raccoons quickly and humanely, then resume using the crane. They said the project is already a few days ahead of schedule, so the delay should not set them back.

The barrier islands of Sanibel and Captiva connect to the mainland by a three-mile-long causeway that stretches from the southwestern reaches of Fort Myers out across San Carlos Bay, where the Caloosahatchee River empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Created by nature to protect the mainland, the palm-tree and flower-lined islands are famous for their beaches and the incredible variety of shells that wash up on their shores.Beaches range from the Gulf-to-bay sands at Lighthouse Park at one end of Sanibel, punctuated by the historic light tower and home to a popular fishing pier, to Captiva's romantic beaches, where sunset draws a nightly crowd. In between are family-friendly sandy playgrounds and long stretches of unpopulated sands fronting beautiful houses. Seashells carpet all the beaches, but Bowman's Beach is especially known for fine selections, as well as great birding.Once devoted to grapefruit and coconut farms, the islands exert a charming reluctance to allow too much infringement of the modern, metropolitan world. To maintain their rural character, no stoplights or street lights intrude on either island. Captiva Island feels (and is) more remote than Sanibel. Quirky, with its one-of-a-kind colorful restaurants and unusual shops, the tiny village dwells in its own state of existence – equal parts waterside playground and pure whimsy.On Sanibel, there are multi-use paths – 25 miles total – that function as sidewalks, bike paths and recreational trails; buildings are "no taller than the tallest palm tree." Residents and visitors alike maintain a healthy respect for and commitment to the environment. Half of Sanibel's acreage has been preserved against development. The intelligent and sensitive way the islands balance resorts with nature has made them a state-wide model for eco-tourism.Throughout history, Sanibel and Captiva have been used variously as stopovers for Spanish explorers and resorts for the rich and famous, including one special cartoonist, Jay Norwood Darling, who helped create the 6,400-acre national wildlife refuge that bears his name. Other notables who sought escape on the islands before the causeway made visits easier and more popular include Teddy Roosevelt, Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh and Edna St. Vincent Millay. From artist Robert Rauschenberg to weatherman Willard Scott, the famous still seek refuge at this preserve for wildlife and the human soul.Visitors to both islands enjoy not only the natural, ungroomed beaches, but also the languid pace of island life, great restaurants, theater and museums such as Sanibel Historical Village and the Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum. Education centers at Sanibel's two main eco-attractions introduce the uninitiated to the island's marine, freshwater and hammock habitats, where river otters, loggerhead sea turtles, dolphins, manatees, bald eagles and hundreds of native and transitory birds find refuge.Restaurants on both islands excel at seafood succulence in settings that range from porch cafes to waterfront views and modern elegance. Although seafood is the centerpiece, menus range from Mediterranean to New American in style. Dining and shopping are favorite pastimes on the island for those ready to leave the beach for a spell. Sanibel Island is known for its art galleries, which specialize in wildlife paintings. Don't miss the monthly Art Nights during the winter season. Seashell shops, resort clothing boutiques and jewelry stores selling custom, sea-inspired adornments line small shopping centers prettily decorated with bougainvillea, shady ficus trees and swaying palms.The islands' marinas offer plenty of opportunity to get out on the water. Offerings include shelling on secluded islands, hitting a beach away from it all, fishing, sailing, snorkeling, learning about marine life or camping on a bridgeless island. Many resorts and outfitters stock kayaks, sailboats, paddleboats and an assortment of water toys for vacationers' enjoyment.Between Sanibel and Captiva, visitors can find a resort to precisely match their style of vacationing. Small inns provide an intimate experience, Gulf-front resorts cater to beach buffs, cottages have that delicious barefoot feel and grand destination resorts leave no vacation whim unfulfilled with a full complement of marina, tennis, beach and golf facilities.
Get Rolling: Look, Ma – no hills! Well, unless you count a couple of the bridges crossing canals along Sanibel Island's 23 miles of paved bike path. It connects to the four-mile Wildlife Drive at the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge, another popular cycling route.Windsurfing the Sanibel Causeway: Big winds bring joy to windsurfers along the causeway spoil islands. For rentals and instructions, contact nearby Ace Performers (239-489-3513). For extremely extreme, ask about kite-boarding.Follow Ancient Trails: Paddle your way from one end of the county to the other along the Great Calusa Blueway (239-461-7400), a marked and GPS-plotted Intracoastal Waterway trail named for a native tribe that covers 190 miles.Captain Your Own Destiny: Or at least your own salty, exciting day riding the waves: Rent a powerboat from one of the local marinas. Explore secluded beaches, visit uninhabited islands and cast for your fantasy fish.Hit the Deck and Learn: Tarpon Bay Explorers (239-472-8900), Sanibel Island, official tour concession for the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge, holds free themed deck talks Monday through Friday to educate about alligators, sea turtles, manatees and more.Big on Culture: BIG ARTS (239-395-0900), Sanibel Island's cultural heart, beats with an energetic schedule of entertainment, from high-brow musicians to film and kids' programs. The center also has art galleries and offers lecture series and numerous workshops.Be One with the Birds: A favorite resort for birds traveling the major "flyway" overhead, the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge (239-472-1100), Sanibel Island, accommodates its guests – from bald eagles and roseate spoonbills to sanderlings and warblers – with pure wetlands and mangrove estuaries. American alligators, manatees, dolphin, raccoons, river otters and the rare bobcat also share the refuge.Admire Showcase Shells: When it comes time to ID your beach finds and delve into the history – natural and social – of shells, the gallery-like Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum (239-395-2233, 888-679-6450), Sanibel Island, is just the spot.Sip a Key Lime Martini: At Key Lime Bistro (239-395-4000), smack in the middle of "downtown" Captiva (if there is such a thing), people-watch, tap your foot to live jazz and relish fresh seafood. And don't miss the Sunday Jazz Brunch.Sleep in the Past: Cottages at historic Captiva Island Inn (239-395-0882), with such delightful names as Bird of Paradise and Orchid, hearken back to the 1950s with hand-carved molding and a storybook vibe.Genuflect to the Past: Captiva Island's seasonal nondenominational Chapel-By-The-Sea, once a one-room schoolhouse, is today a popular spot for weddings and seaside meditation. Island pioneers were laid to rest in its seaside cemetery.Look for Fins and Snouts: Each day brings new surprises when you set sail on a nature cruise. Some tours cast seine nets to introduce visitors to tiny creatures from the sea. Others go in search of dolphin, manatees and birds where they live.Root for the Under-Crab: Gentlecrabs, start your … um… claws? Every Monday and Thursday at 6 p.m., the Crow's Nest Lounge at 'Tween Waters Inn (239-472-5161) on Captiva Island hosts the zany NasCrab Races with fanfare and prizes.Go Fly a Kite: The beaches along the Sanibel Causeway benefit from a stiff crosswind that makes them popular for windsurfing and kite-flying alike. On a good day, it's fun to watch the action, or for even more fun, let your imagination (and kite) take flight.Talk to the Animals: Tucked among the lush vegetation at Jerry's Supermarket shopping plaza on Sanibel Island, tropical cage birds sing and talk to you. They're at their chattiest in the evening.Hear the Word: Call about weekly storytelling and reading sessions at the beautiful Sanibel Public Library (239-472-2483). While you're there, get a visitor's card and check out some beach reading.Witness the End of an Era: Remnants of the early commercial fishing industry, historic stilted fish shacks strut the shallows around North Captiva. Once the homes for fishermen and their families, they survive as scenic reminders of the region's rich fishing heritage.
World-class shelling isn't the only thing you'll find on Sanibel and Captiva. Go kayaking, hit the theater and check out the shell museum.Captiva IslandStart with breakfast at the Lighthouse Café, where diners recently overheard discussion of closing the restaurant so "The Kennedys" could dine in private (yes, most likely those Kennedys).Next, visit the well-presented displays at the Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum to identify your finds and learn about shell history and architecture. Lunch at the Over Easy Café is a brightly colored affair. Then either bike some of Sanibel's 25 miles of paved paths (try Billy's Bikes & Rentals and Segway of Sanibel) or head over to Tarpon Bay Explorers for a guided kayak trip.Round out the evening with dinner at Doc Ford's Sanibel Rum Bar & Grille, then take in a spot of culture at The Herb Strauss Schoolhouse Theater.

Anaheim, California
Anaheim is a city in Orange County, California. Anaheim is the second most populous city in Orange County (after Santa Ana) and second largest in terms of land area (after Irvine), and is known for its theme parks, sports teams and convention center.
Founded by fifty German families in 1857 and incorporated on February 10, 1870, Anaheim developed into an industrial center, producing electronics, aircraft parts and canned fruit. It is the site of the Disneyland Resort, a world-famous grouping of theme parks and hotels which opened in 1955, Angel Stadium of Anaheim, Honda Center and Anaheim Convention Center, the largest convention center on the West Coast. Its name is a blend of "Ana", after the nearby Santa Ana River, and "heim", a common German place name compound originally meaning "home".
