Re: WTB Trailer for 22' fixed keel sailboat
What's the weight of the boat? My 22' only weighs 2300 pounds, and trailers perfectly on a single axle boat trailer rated for 3500#. You may not need a dual axle trailer. Have you looked into borrowing or renting a trailer for the trip? I believe that some marinas/boat dealers will rent trailers.
Here's my Starwind 22 on its single axle trailer, the bunks supports are simple "C" channel bolted to the frame. You could use rectangular tube or C channel to build your own if needed. The second photo shows the bunk supports while I was replacing the rotted bunk boards. It's not very complicated at all. Remember that the bunks don't hold much of the weight of the boat, the majority of the weight rides on the keel support. The bunks typically just provide stability on the trailer.

Foot Stroking
His six-pack is taut and tanned, and he has some big natural man bush peeking out of the top of his belt line. Eryk moves to the supply box to get a better view of the porn on the television and also offer up a better view of his tight balls and round bubble ass. He spreads his cheeks to expose a smooth, tight, Marine hole that he grazes lightly with his finger. Eryk removes his dusty boots to rest his tired feet and quickly gets back to work on that great pink cock of his. This Private gives his cock a little special attention and strokes his dick with the smooth arch of his foot. That was the kicker, this toe-lover cant take any more teasing. He goes double handed pulling his pud and gripping his balls until hot steamy Marine juices flood from the tip of his pink warrior. Brilliant gobs of man gravy come out flying on to his happy trail and unmanicured pube patch with a sigh of joy and relief.

Photo Coverage: Botegga Veneta Spring 2013 Campaign
Peter Lindbergh's images for Bottega Veneta's spring campaign are filled with nostalga and look as thought they jumped out of a movie. The ad campaign features Freja Beha Erichsen and Baptiste Radufe. Bottega's collection was beautiful when it walked the runway and the clothes translate wonderfully in the campaign.

Recent Bridgewater Corners Reviews
Perfect weekend getaway!
The Farmehouse is the perfect place for a weekend getaway with a large group. Lots of living room space to hang out by the fireplace or pellet stove. The fully equipped kitchen, and huge dining room table were perfect for our homemade dinners with the entire group. The hot tub was heated up and ready to go when we got there on Thursday night! The house is very close to the Killington slopes and short walk from the Long Trail brewery and bar. The house and accommodations could not have been better, and we would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great time!
Beautiful, Spacious Luxury Home
This luxury home is far more than a cabin! It has the rustic charm of a ski lodge but includes top-of-the-line furnishing and appliances. The rooms are spacious, clean and well laid out. We fit several families comfortably. There is a game room downstairs, a huge stone fireplace and an outdoor hot tub. I could not have designed a more perfect retreat for our Killington ski vacation. My family will be back!
Nice and Comfortable - Convenient Location
The house was very easy to find and easily accessible. Not far from Killington and just minutes away from convenience stores and gas stations. We had a large group and found the property comfortable and well equipped, including wifi and more than enough kitchen ammenities. The living room may be a bit small for a large group but perfect for a family size group. The only thing missing was a TV, which the owner agreed and will include for future stays. The property is located far away from the closest neighbor and includes a giant field. The owner was very flexible with our needs.

Using animals for entertainment is NOT cool. Our enjoyment isn't worth the pain and suffering that these animals endure. Hopefully Kmart learned its lesson last week.
What happened:
In response to the shark's death, Julia Gallucci, an animal behavior specialist for PETA, wrote a letter to the American Humane Association (AHA), the group charged with overseeing animal use on production sets:
Sharks are sensitive animals who, in captivity, require a highly specialized and controlled environment. Given the delicate nature of this species, why would the AHA approve the transport and use of the animal?
This doesn't sound anything like the kind of space that this shark was given. Marine animals should NEVER be kept in captivity, where they are cramped, lonely, deprived of all control over their lives, and far from their natural homes. Please, speak up for marine animals in captivity:

Breast Cancer Awareness briefs
One thousand tickets, at $10 each, are on sale at all H-E-B stores in Corpus Christi for an H-E-B "plus" preview party, featuring a live performance by country singer-songwriter Lyle Lovett. Another 500 tickets are free for children 12 or younger.
Proceeds benefit First Friday and Christus Spohn Health System in their effort to fight breast cancer. The four-hour affair begins at 6 p.m. Thursday at the new H-E-B "Plus" store at 5313 Saratoga Blvd. Lovett will play from 7 to 9 p.m. The store opens for public shopping at 6 a.m. Friday.
Lovett, 48, lives in Klein, a community north of Houston named for Lovett's great-great-grandfather, Adam Klein. Lovett graduated from Texas A&M University and has won four Grammy Awards.
Another treatment option for survivors
Postmenopausal breast-cancer survivors who have been taking tamoxifen now have another treatment option.
Last week, the Food and Drug Administration approved the drug Aromasin for the treatment of postmenopausal women with early breast cancer following two-to-three years of tamoxifen for a total of five consecutive years of hormonal therapy. A study in the New England Journal of Medicine reports that, when used in this way, Aromasin offers 31 percent more protection from recurrence than five years of tamoxifen alone.

Power of Pink' event at Padre Staples mall
Padre Staples Mall will turn its center court area into a miniature breast cancer awareness forum from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 22 during the "Power of Pink" event.
Physicians and survivors will share advice and stories. Attendees can donate scarves, buy beads and ribbons and watch demonstrations on how to apply different makeup and skin treatments. The Junior League of Corpus Christi, the American Cancer Society and the mall are sponsoring the free event.
Proceeds benefit a local Cancer Society program that helps mastectomy patients receive prosthesis.

The Taylor Swift pop machine is in full effect with the imminent fall release of her fifth album, 1989. She announced the album during last week's live stream event, which also served as the debut of the single "Shake It Off," (haters gonna hate, hate, hate, etc.) along with the Mark Romanek-directed video, which involved lots of awkward white girl dancing. She also said that the album was her first "documented pop album," which in Swift-land, means that the former star of country radio has put together a suite of songs that will only play on Top 40 stations; and by my uneducated guess, will probably not get banjo-laden country station remixes, this time around. … Read More
The VMAs and the Emmys: The Show Is Always More Important Than the Awards
For what's supposedly TV's biggest night, the Emmys don't make for great TV. Lengthy and depressingly behind the times — in terms of both winners' relevance and cartoonish sexism — the ceremony still has the power to provoke the aural equivalent of keyboard-smashing by, say, ignoring Orange Is the New Black. That's because the Emmys, particularly in an over-saturated TV landscape like today's, are actually supposed to mean something. Which might explain why the far more enjoyable awards show of the last 48 hours was also the far less consequential one. … Read More
MTV VMAs 2014: The Year of the Class Act
No pop-star threeways, no meat dresses, no speech-crashing, no boob jiggles, no compacts thrown, no assless pants, no shade, no "This World Is Bullshit," and definitely no twerking. This year's MTV Video Music Awards, airing living from The Forum in LA on Sunday (August 24), were downright tame, even snoozy. That is, until Beyoncé and Miley shook things up in the last half hour. But the two pop juggernauts did so without controversy — an approach that seemed to trickle down to define this year's ceremony. Even a Nicki Minaj wardrobe malfunction, which she handled beautifully mid-performance without revealing more than her navel, came to define the rapper's three performances during the night, including celebrations of the ass during opening number "Anaconda" and a booty-bumping moment with Usher. … Read More

Queer Rapper Le1f Speaks Out Against Macklemore: Why "Same Love" Doesn't Speak for the LGBT Community
Here's a confession: before writing this paragraph, I hadn't listened to "Same Love" by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. It's not because I make a habit out of avoiding pop music; rather, the notion of a straight white man rapping about how it's OK to be gay didn't seem like the kind of thing for me. I mean, I know it's OK to be gay. Most of those I know in the LGBT community know it's ok to be queer, too. And here's a surprise for the heterosexual world: most of us didn't learn from you anything about understanding and appreciating ourselves. "Same Love" is Acceptance for Dummies, essentially, a song for those who need to be told by one of their own that those who are different from them are human beings, too, and deserving of the same respect as anyone else. … Read More
Ranking the MTV VMA Performances from Best to Worst
Last night saw the MTV Video Music Awards come to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. The best thing about the night was clearly Taylor Swift telling One Direction to "Shut the fuck up," but beyond that, the show was, as ever, about the performances — all the post-event hysteria has been about Miley Cyrus's… interesting rendition of "We Can't Stop," but there were plenty of other notable moments, including an N*Sync reunion and Kanye West performing "Blood on the Leaves." So… from best to worst, here's how we saw the evening's performances. … Read More
10 Amazing, Shocking Unscripted Moments From '90s MTV

Excel Made Easy - A Beginner's Guide
Greetings! In this tutorial, you'll learn about rows, columns, cells, worksheets (spreadsheets), and workbooks. We'll discuss how to add rows and columns, and how to move around in a worksheet. We'll learn how to enter data, and protect cells and spreadsheets. We'll tell you everything you need to know to get started using Microsoft Excel.
If you like video-based introduction, check out Excel 2010 Tutorial for Beginners. We have this course (over 9 hours of hands-on lessons) and find it very well done. (You can watch some chapters online.)
Now - let's begin learning Microsoft Excel!
The Excel Worksheet (Spreadsheet) and Workbook
An Excel worksheet, or spreadsheet, is a two-dimensional grid with columns and rows. Look at the spreadsheet below. The column names are letters of the alphabet starting with A, and the rows are numbered chronologically starting with the number one. The cells in the first row are A1, B1, C1, and so on. And the cells in the first column are A1, A2, A3, and so on. These are called cell names or cell references.
We use cell references when creating math formulas or functions. For example, the formula to add the contents of cells B2 and B3 together is: =B2+B3. For more information, see our tutorial Excel Math Basics: Writing Formulas and Expressions.
|Name Box: displays
the cell name or
cell reference↓
|Formula Bar:
displays contents
of selected cell ↓
|↑ Row Numbers
|↑ Selected Cell
The Name Box is located in the area above Column A, and displays the selected cell - the cell you've clicked in and where the cursor is resting. In our spreadsheet above, the selected cell is C2. Notice that the column letter (C) and the row number (2) change color.
The beginning of the Formula Bar can be seen in the area above Column D on our worksheet. The Formula Bar displays the contents of the selected cell.
A workbook is a collection of worksheets or spreadsheets. When the Excel program is opened, a workbook opens with three blank worksheets. The names of the worksheets are displayed on tabs at the bottom of the Excel window. We discuss working with worksheets later in this tutorial.
Moving From Cell to Cell
The arrow keys can be used to move left, right, up, and down from the current cell. Press the Enter key to move to the cell immediately below the current cell, and press the Tab key to move one cell to the right.
Selecting Cells
There are a variety of ways to select cells in an Excel spreadsheet:
- To select one cell, click in the cell.
- To select one or more rows of cells, click on the row number(s).
- To select one or more columns of cells, click on the column letter(s).
- To select a group of contiguous cells, click in a corner cell and, with the left mouse button depressed, drag the cursor horizontally and/or vertically until all of the cells you want selected are outlined in black.
- To select multiple cells that are not contiguous, press and hold the Ctrl key while clicking in the desired cells.
- To select every cell in the worksheet, click in the upper right corner of the worksheet to the left of "A."
Entering Data into Cells
To enter data into a cell, just click in the cell and begin typing. What you type also displays in the Formula Bar. When entering dates, Excel defaults to the current year if the year portion of the date is not entered.
You may edit cell contents from the Formula bar, or from directly inside the cell. To edit from the Formula Bar, select the cell and click inside the Formula Bar. When done typing, either press the Enter key or click inside another cell. To edit directly inside a cell, either double click inside the cell, or select the cell and press the F2 key.
Each cell has a specific format. This format tells Excel how the data inside the cell should be displayed. See our separate tutorial on Formatting Cells in Microsoft Excel.
Propagating Cell Contents
There are multiple ways to propagate or fill data from one cell to adjacent cells. Let's begin with two popular keyboard shortcuts that allow us to fill down, or fill to the right:
- To fill adjacent cells with the contents of the cell above, select the cell with the data and the cells to be filled and press Ctrl + D (the Ctrl key and the D key) to fill down.
- To fill adjacent cells with the contents of the cell to the left, select the cell with the data and cells to be filled and press Ctrl + R (the Ctrl key and the R key) to fill to the right.
To propagate in any direction, use the Fill Handle. Click in a cell with data to be copied, hover the cursor over the cell's lower right corner until the cursor changes to a thin plus sign (+) or a dark square, and drag up, down, left, or right to fill the cells.
If the data to be copied is a date, number, time period, or a custom-made series, the data will be incremented by one instead of just copied when the Fill Handle is used. For example, to display the months of the year in column A, type January in cell A1, drag the Fill Handle down to cell A12, and the months will display, in order, in column A!
Moving and Copying Cells
To move cell contents, right-click in the selected cell and click Cut. To copy cell contents, click Copy. Then right-click in the new location and click Paste. To paste a group of cells, right-click in the cell where the top left cell of the group should be located, and click Paste. Remove the animated border around the original cell by pressing the ESC key, or start typing in a new cell.
Adding and Deleting Rows and Columns
To insert a new row in a spreadsheet, right-click on a row number, and click Insert. Excel always inserts the row ABOVE the row that was clicked on. To delete a row, right-click on the row number, and click Delete.
To insert a new column, right-click on a column letter and click Insert. Excel always inserts the column to the LEFT of the column that was clicked on. To delete a column, right-click on the column letter, and click Delete.
Protecting a Worksheet (Spreadsheet) or Workbook
To protect a worksheet or workbook in Excel 2007, click the Review tab, click Protect Worksheet or Protect Workbook, and click OK (entering a password first, if desired). When a worksheet or workbook is already protected, the icons in the Review tab are Unprotect Worksheet and Unprotect Workbook.
In earlier versions of Excel, click Tools > Protection, click Protect Sheet or Protect Workbook, and click OK (entering a password first, if desired). When a worksheet or workbook is already protected, the menu items read Unprotect Sheet and Unprotect Workbook.
Don't enter a password unless absolutely necessary. If you forget the password, you won't be able to unprotect the worksheet, so you won't be able to change, delete, or format any of the Locked cells!
Working with Worksheets (Spreadsheets)
Viewing, Renaming, Inserting, and Deleting Worksheets
Worksheet tabs are found in the bottom left area of the workbook. To view a worksheet, click on its tab. If the workbook window is not wide enough to display all of the tabs, use the arrows to the left of the tabs to navigate left or right, or right-click on any of the arrows and select the tab from the list that displays.
To rename a spreadsheet, right-click on the spreadsheet tab, select Rename from the context menu, and type a new name. Or, double-click on the worksheet tab and type a new name.
To insert a worksheet, right-click on a worksheet tab and select Insert from the menu. Excel always inserts the spreadsheet to the left of the current worksheet.
To delete a worksheet, right-click on the worksheet tab and select Delete from the context menu.
Moving Worksheets (Spreadsheets)
Sometimes we want our spreadsheets to be arranged in a different order. To move a worksheet in the same workbook, right-click on the tab of the source worksheet and click "Move or Copy." In the Move or Copy window, click the name of the worksheet that you want the sheet to be inserted before, and click OK.
To move a spreadsheet to a new workbook, right-click on the tab of the source spreadsheet and click "Move or Copy." In the Move or Copy window, click the drop-down arrow under "To Book:" and click (new book). Excel removes the worksheet from the existing workbook and opens a new workbook containing the moved worksheet.
To move a worksheet to another existing workbook, we recommend copying the worksheet as instructed below, and then deleting the original sheet when the worksheet has been successfully pasted. Using cut and paste is an option, but if something happens to the PC before pasting occurs, a valuable worksheet could be lost.
Copying Worksheets (Spreadsheets)
Rather than start from scratch, it is often easier to copy, and then modify, an existing worksheet. To copy a worksheet in the same workbook, right-click on the tab of the source worksheet and click "Move or Copy." In the Move or Copy window, check the "create a copy" box, click the name of the spreadsheet that you want the sheet to be inserted before, and click OK.
To copy a worksheet into a new workbook, right-click on the tab of the source worksheet and click "Move or Copy." In the Move or Copy window, click the drop-down arrow under "To Book:" and click (new book). Excel opens a new workbook containing the copied spreadsheet.
To copy a worksheet from one workbook to another existing workbook, right-click the top left corner cell to select all cells and click Copy. Open the other Excel workbook, find an empty worksheet, right-click the top left corner cell to select all cells, and click Paste. Return to the first worksheet and press ESC to remove the animated border.
In Closing...
Excel error messages begin with a pound sign (#). The most common error, #####, indicates that the cell is too narrow to display all of the data. Make the column wider by placing the cursor on the right side of the column heading and dragging the column edge to the right.

Report: Kaepernick wants to TM move
Don't go making any "Kaepernicking" T-shirts, as you could soon receive a cease and desist.
Looking for more scoops on your favorite New England sports teams? Check out NESN.
Colin Kaepernick has filed for a trademark on the term "Kaepernicking," which is his version of "Tebowing," according to ESPN. The San Francisco 49ers' quarterback celebrates touchdowns by lifting his right arm to his helmet, "kissing" his bicep.
Kaepernick registered for the trademark on Jan. 14 according to the report with intended use on clothing, namely T-shirts. The website Sportiqe.com already has an official "Kaepernicking" T-shirt. Proceeds for the shirt go to Camp Taylor, a charity for children with congenital heart defects. Kaepernick's adoptive parents have lost two children to heart defects.
Kaepernick's 49ers will be taking on the Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII on Feb. 3. San Francisco beat the Atlanta Falcons last Sunday 28-24. Kaepernick took over for Alex Smith at quarterback in Week 10 after Smith had suffered a concussion. After a strong Week 11 game against the Bears on Monday Night Football, head coach Jim Harbaugh named Kaepernick the starter for the rest of the season.
It was just Kaepernick's second season in the NFL and he completed 62.4 percent of his passes for 1,814 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also rushed for 415 yards and five touchdowns during the regular season.
His playoff run to New Orleans was highlighted by his 181-yard rushing performance, an NFL record for a QB in any game, in a 45-31 win over Green Bay in the divisional round.

A change in rules and regulations at the state level has left towns in a position to take over dog licensing functions.
Recently, the towns of Cicero and Clay held public hearings on the matter to amend the local laws they had on the books to include licensing and all that goes with it - setting fees, sending out notices, providing tags and purchasing or updating software programs - as a town responsibility.
"We have to provide the software [and] buy the tags," Clay Supervisor Damian Ulatowski said. "You [the state] can't keep asking us to do more."
According to Clay Town Clerk Jill Hageman-Clark, her office has worked hard to make sure they have a smooth transition when the time comes. Office staff has already begun using the software so they are familiar with it and ready to roll when licensing is solely on the town's shoulders.
"The clerk's department is one of the busiest departments in the town," Ulatowski said. "I'm not sure how much extra work it will be."
The board approved the change of law and set the fees - $4 for a spayed or neutered dog and $12 for unspayed or unneutered. The fees are "going up minimally," Hageman-Clark said, but Clay will still have the lowest fees in the county.
Cicero Clerk Tracy Cosilmon said her office had been working with the other towns in Onondaga County. She said her office is also hoping for a smooth transition.
"There's not going to be that much change," she said recently. "Information is going to come from the town of Cicero instead of the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets."
Cosilmon asked dog owners to be sure to give the most up-to-date information when licensing their pets, particularly where telephone numbers are concerned as many people have done away with home phones and primarily use cell phones.

Wii U
Why is Nintendoland $60?
pearl arowana posted...
wii u with cpu weaker than ps3/360 - 250/400
Not creative enough or did you find your "hook" to hang your hat on?
I guess we all have super clocked CPUs now considering the PS360 were dated when they launched and..........wait, things got more efficient and some tech that had to be built separate of the CPU is now seamlessly integrated into the CPU? Wah? Technology moves forward in many directions, that just does not make sense to me I guess. I mean we should all have CPUs at around 10Ghz now, right?
We are discussing a game, and this mook comes in here trying to rattle some cages with his weak attempts to attack the CPU on the U without even bringing up that it is on a MCM.
We needs lots of speed when everything is built into one chip, right?
Or maybe the people working on the dev kits have had to compensate for the different more advanced tech that doesnt rely on extra cores like the Cell or a higher clock speed in order to make a game work right. Maybe that developer was having issues because there is no standard yet to fix what issues arose.
Or maybe the Cell just sucks that much:
As a trade off for increased resolution, the amount of on-screen action has been reduced in the PS3 version to keep the game running at an acceptable speed. Eurogamer pointed out that there are fewer enemies spawned at one time in the PS3 version of the game, and the developers "blatantly remove polygons in the Sigma edition in order to maintain frame-rate.

Icecreamdunwich posted...Not sure, anyone else find it hilarious that Nintendo is charging $60 now and the fanboys aren't freaking out, when that was a big thing they criticized the PS3/360 for?
They will buy cheaper products on other systems.
And I have no problem paying premium for games, as long as they are worth it. SNES and N64 games were about $100 where I lived in the 90's. But if a game costs full retail then it must be full featured and this slideshow carnival pictureshow should be given away in cereal boxes.
You belong on the blizz D3 forums, it was built for people like you. Like how some barns are built specifically to contain filthy animals.
SNES and N64 games were quite expensive here as well, PSX games were less though.
It's not really a demo disc like Wii Sports is. I'm guessing since you see Miis and a collection of sub-games, you automatically assume it should be free.
Edit: Wait, Wii U games are $60? Well...I was hoping Nintendo games would stay on the cheaper side, but this is gonna be a bit of a problem. Especially for first-party titles. Oh well.
Come see my game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz

This game will have just as much depth and thrills as Link's Crossboww training, which is almost the exact same concept.
"What's the absolute bare minimum we could do with our properties and still get sales and have it ready for launch? Our shareholders want higher profits, and less quality."

New Britain — Reports of a person carrying a sword or a handgun led to a three-hour lockdown at Central Connecticut State University on Monday, but police said no weapons were recovered and there was no threat to the campus.
Three school-age people were in custody, but no charges were filed and police said they were investigating whether the scare may have been set off by somebody wearing a Halloween costume.
"We had no real threat to students or faculty," said Chris Cervoni, chief of the campus police.
The university declared a campus emergency at about noon Monday, directing people to stay inside and away from windows on the 182-acre campus south of Hartford. State troopers and police from several nearby cities responded, and SWAT teams swarmed around a 400-student residential building, James Hall, where the suspect had been seen.
Officials said that even if it was a prank, the concern was real, noting the person dressed in camouflage was the subject of several 911 calls.
"In this situation, our prayers were answered," said Jack Miller, the university's president, who noted the FBI was among the agencies that responded. "Certainly there have been many other situations that didn't conclude in this way."
Jordan Governale, a 20-year-old junior from Farmington, said he walked by a man carrying a backpack and with a sword and sheath strapped to his back Monday morning. The man was wearing a mask, camouflage pants, knee pads and a vest resembling body armor, Governale said.
A minute later, he said, he saw police.
"At first I thought it was a Halloween costume. But after I saw the cops I thought it was some sort of threat," he said. "It's pretty scary. It's pretty strange, unexpected."
The lockdown was lifted shortly after 3 p.m. University spokeswoman Janice Palmer said that the students who had been inside James Hall were moved to another building for questioning.
Cervoni said the three people of interest were taken into custody on a fourth-floor hallway of James Hall and the primary suspect is a student at CCSU. He said police were continuing to search the building.
Classes were canceled for the rest of the day at the school, which has more than 12,000 students.
Morgan Podlisny, an 18-year-old freshman who lives in the adjacent Seth North residence hall, said she and her friends watched the situation unfold next door.
"Our whole dorm was freaking out," she said. "At first, there were a lot of cops there rushing in with guns.
Kiara Gupton, a 21-year-old junior, said she could see SWAT teams and dogs.
"I'm really just upset about this," she said, recalling last year's deadly school shooting in Newtown, about 30 miles away. "It's scary. ... To see all these SWAT teams outside is really just overwhelming."
Two New Britain schools near the campus were also locked down as a precaution, according to the superintendent's office.

Philadelphia, PA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/12/2014 -- A recent article from Everything Entertaining takes an early look at the newest gallery show featuring Scott Tucker.
The Main St. Art House has taken on a new show put together by Scott Tucker and the John Hunt, owner and director of the Art House. The Art House is known for it's featuring many amateur artists, mostly but not limited to the local community.
"This is what we are about," says Henry Utz, chief editor of Everything Entertaining. "We try to present entertainment in all mediums, but our focus lately is on local and everyday art. This is Scott Tucker's first show and that makes it even more exciting for us to be the first ones letting the information out to the public."
Tucker says he is a little overwhelmed by all that's happened in the past few weeks, but that it is becoming a little more comfortable as he's had some more time to digest it.
"When Everything Entertaining contacted me I was a little surprised as I didn't think I was anything worth writing about, but they made things super easy and comfortable. We've talked on the phone and over email a few times now and it's been a real pleasure. We've also discussed future projects so it is definitely an open ended conversation."
Utz says he is excited to get a new local artist on board and looks forward to future projects. He also told us about a future event Everything Entertaining is planning featuring local artists from around the United States and hopes to have it put together by the end of the year.
Scott Tucker is an amateur artist that has been active in the community for the past several years offering free art classes as well as much volunteer work. His debut show is called, "Soul Avenue" and is showing all of July at The Art House on Main St.

The Vango Woburn 500 replaces the best selling Icarus 500 - this new and exciting tent being similar in looks, layout and dimensions to that popular tent. The Woburn 500 is a 5-berth tunnel tent with a bedroom inner curtain than can split the bedroom into a 3+2 configuration each section of which will have its own entrance door. The breathable inner tent also features the 'lights out' system which filters out early morning daylight for a more comfortable sleep.
The Woburn 500 is very quick to pitch with the same length poles and head height throughout the tent making it a great weekend tent for the family or a group of friends.
The living area is a well proportioned 3.2x2.4m so providing ample living/dining space. There are two entrances off the living area - front and side - both of which are large panel doors that can be either rolled up or propped out to form sun canopies.
The tent has a fully sewn-in polyethylene groundsheet so keeping out drafts and bugs and the interior also benefits from Vango's TBS (tension band system) - webbing straps that you can deploy to strengthen the tunnel structure in poor weather conditions.
The full features of the Vango Woburn 500 Tent include:
|Pack Size
|210+240cm (465cm overall)
|Atlantic Blue/Black

From Barnes & NobleThe Barnes & Noble Review
Jane Yolen and Mark Teague follow up their blockbuster hit How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night? with this hilarious, rhymed read about ancient -- and under-the-weather -- reptiles.
When a dinosaur gets sick, taking care of it might be touch-and-go. If it comes down with the flu, will "he whimper and whine in between each Atchoo" like the book's sour Styracosaurus sitting on the nurse's table? Or maybe he'll "flip off his covers with tooth and with tail" like the nonchalant, bedridden Euoplocephalus. He could also let out a Dilophosaurus-sized dramatic wail or "drag his feet till his mom is in shock," but the truth is, with some TLC from Mom and Dad, little Velociraptors will be happily using hankies and saying gentle good nights before drifting off to sleep.
From pouting Parasaurolophuses to tricky Tropeognathuses, Yolen and Teague prove that laughter is the best medicine. Clever rhymes make this ideal for reading aloud to any recovering little dino, while drily humorous illustrations will keep parents and kids scouring pages for dinosaur names and subtle, knowing expressions. The next time your child is stuck in his or her sickbed, pull out this book and let the giggles go to work! Matt Warner

Alleges that the chairman walked out of the meeting without adjourning it
NALGONDA: The vice-chairperson of the Suryapet municipality Beeravolu Ravinder Reddy created a flutter by sitting in the council hall for about 18 hours alleging that the chairman Meela Satyanarayana walked out of the meeting without adjourning it. Both of them belong to the Congress party.
The trouble started at the council's general body meeting on Wednesday evening when a couple of ruling party councillors— Pendem Chandrasekhar and Ganduri Prakash-- were engaged in a verbal duel.
As the melee was going on for sometime, the chairman walked out of the meeting hall along with the minutes' book.
He didn't come back creating utter confusion among the members.
Mr. Reddy took objection to the chairman's action and alleged that he walked out without adjourning the meeting. "As he didn't follow the mandatory formalities, I would sit here till he adjourns the meeting," Mr.Reddy announced.
He remained in the council hall throughout the night. The efforts made by the local Congress leaders to persuade him to withdraw the protest proved futile.
Mr. Reddy continued his protest till 9 a.m. on Thursday. As the local MLA Vedasu Venkaiah (Congress) assured him of taking up the matter with the party high command, Mr.Reddy went home.
Chairman's version
The businessman-turned-politician, Mr.Satyanarayana told The Hindu that he had announced the adjournment before leaving the council hall.
"I declared it there itself. I went to my chambers and mentioned about the adjournment in the minutes' book before keeping it in the cupboard," he clarified.
He alleged that Mr.Ravinder Reddy had been resorting to such tricks to embarrass him.
"He was the TRS State secretary before joining the Congress. He always wants to make fuss," he maintained.

The FCA's 'new' penalties regime — how it is being implemented in practice
It has been more than three years since the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA, previously the Financial Services Authority) brought into effect its 'new' penalties regime for regulatory misconduct and more than two years since it was used for the very first time. The 'new' regime, as anticipated, has in practice produced some eye-watering fines, such as the £137.6m fine for JP Morgan following its 'London Whale' trades. While it remains the case that not every regulatory enforcement action will use this regime — as pre-March 2010 conduct is still, in some cases, proceeding through the disciplinary process — we do now have a body of Final Notices under the 'new' regime, from which we can glean some principles or precedential value.
By way of reminder, the FCA applies a five-stepped process based on the 3 Ds: disgorgement of profits made or losses avoided (Step 1); discipline taking into account the seriousness of the breach (normally by applying a percentage of 0–20 per cent of a firm's 'relevant revenue', or 0–40 per cent of an individual's 'relevant income') and any aggravating or mitigating factors (Steps 2 and 3); and deterrence to the subject of the decision and others in the market (Step 4) (followed by any early settlement discount at Step 5).
Set out below are the takeaways or themes that can be gleaned from the decisions there have been thus far…

Re: How to get from Porto airport to Coimbra?
Assuming you do not rent a car, you can take the Porto Metro from the airport to Porto Campanha railway station. That will take about 35 minutes and cost 2 Euro. Trains leave every 20 minutes. You can of course take a taxi, at much greater cost but a little faster.!
There is a fast train to Coimbra at 1957 but it is quite likely you may not make it. That is the last fast train on Saturday.
After that, there is a slow regional train at 20.14 (change of train needed in Aveiro) and that is the last train of any type Porto to Coimbra on Saturday night.
The first train on Sunday is at 0647.
The last bus from Porto (Batalha Bus Station) to Coimbra on Saturdays is at 2015 and then no more buses until 0045. Bus journey takes about 90 minutes.
Batalha bus station is in the city centre and as with the train you will have great difficulty in reaching it from the airport in sufficient time.

We'd like to send a big thanks to the 7,883 respondents of our 2013 State of Privacy survey. We were thrilled to get such a great response.

Nearly 90% said companies should prioritize privacy in their offerings. We agree!

I'll start off by saying that the title of this post may be a little misleading…no I'm not signwriting, but I am working with a business who make signs in Brisbane - they actually came to me in a round about way through Brisbane council.
I've worked with a number of local service type businesses before, but never a signage company. I never realised just how many different types of signs there were out there for businesses – and the things I didn't even know existed like pylon signs, vehicle wraps and lightbox signs, so this business has also added a few new words to my vocabulary.
Having such a huge range of different types of signage products means we need a wide ranging approach to get the business out there and target the varying range of businesses they can service and work with.
So what are we doing? Well I won't spill all the beans, you'll have to pay me for that but here's a few:
Giving guidance on choosing the right business signs
We all know that a huge trend in marketing, and particularly online is providing a lot of value up front, with valuable information that your prospects will appreciate. so we're developing some information that both new and existing businesses should find useful in regards to signage and other advertising in Brisbane.
Alot of this is about developing early relationships, so while we won't see an immediate return, it should be a sustainable growth that accumulates over time.
The other thing that is great is that this signage business has over a decade of experience in their industry, so there is a lot of data for me to work off, and past experiences to draw from.
From the types of businesses they produce signs for, to the way that their processes work, there's not much that isn't already defined which makes my job easier in a sense.
In my last post, I said I'd be back updating this blog much more frequently, and I think this is a good start. I am short on time as usual so haven't put a lot of details in, but I'll be back with more.
Here's a great youtube video to give you a taste of the sort of business.

They feel bad, so they found you these other deals to make up for it.
Select Local Merchants
Siboney Cuban CuisineRead MoreFind homemade Cuban food close to home at Siboney Cuban Cuisine. Dieters beware — Siboney Cuban Cuisine does not offer low-fat cuisine. Take your pick of beer, wine, or other beverages offered on Siboney Cuban Cuisine's menu. Siboney Cuban Cuisine is a terrific spot for families to gather with its kid-friendly ambience and menu. Free wireless internet is also available at Siboney Cuban Cuisine, so bring your tablet or laptop along. The patio tables outside of Siboney Cuban Cuisine are the perfect spot for a summer meal. There's no need to winnow the guest list for a night out at Siboney Cuban Cuisine — the restaurant has tons of space for big parties. Be sure to make reservations so you can get seated right away. The dress code is strictly casual at Siboney Cuban Cuisine, so come as you are (and as you are comfortable). Patrons have the option of feeding the meter at the nearby street parking or taking advantage of the restaurant's valet service. If you feel like saving gas, opt for public transportation, with stops conveniently located at Western-O'hare (Blue) and California-O'hare (Blue). It will typically cost you about $30 to enjoy a meal at Siboney Cuban Cuisine.2165 N Western AveChicago, IL US
D'Cuba RestaurantRead MoreFor authentic Cuban cuisine, get lost in D'Cuba Restaurant's soups and stews. Low-fat foods are not on the menu at D'Cuba Restaurant, though, so plan to indulge a bit. The whole family can enjoy a meal at D'Cuba Restaurant with its kid-friendly fare. Ideal for birthday parties or other large get-togethers, D'Cuba Restaurant has all the room you'll need to be comfortable. Be sure to make reservations so you can get seated right away.

All major credit cards are accepted.5653 W Fullerton AveChicago, IL US
HavanaRead MoreHavana serves up Cuban-American cuisine and fresh mojitos in a setting replete with all the charm of an Old World bistro. The menu combines the distinctly Cuban with pan-Latin flavors for a taste exploration that uproots taste-buds and sends them careening on a pinball-style joy ride. Start off with a pitcher of the house mojito, swirled with fresh mint, lime, and sugar in Bacardi Limon rum ($31, or $8 for a glass), and a couple orders of citrusy, seafood-infused ceviche ($9.95). Save room, though, because entrees such as the apricot-chipotle pork chops, marinated with apricot chipotle sauce and served with jalapeno hash browns and steamed broccoli ($18.95), demand serious abdominal real estate. The vegetarian chiles en nogada fools meat-thirsty mandibles with the toothsome texture of two poblano peppers stuffed with mushrooms, peppers, onions, and cheese ($14.95). With a couple more mojitos, caipirinhas, and margaritas, plus an order of Cuban coconut-rum flan ($4.95), gracious guests will be primed for a twilight Clark Street trot on a chestnut mare.412 N Clark StChicago, IL US
CafecitoRead MoreThough they can make such café staples as cappuccinos and chai lattes, Cafecito's baristas specialize in Cuban coffee—classics such as the café con leche, cortadito, and their signature Cuban espresso, whose murky blackness is cut with a teaspoon of sugar. Those earthy aromas complement those of the eatery's gourmet pressed sandwiches, which incorporate all-natural ingredients and the same recipes followed in generations of Cuban kitchens. Rather than just stick to tradition, however, owner Philip Ghantous and his culinary team also put their own spin on the form, creating sandwiches stuffed with Carribbean-inspired jerk chicken or unusual combinations of sweet plantains, guava, and peanut butter. Each meat they use is marinated in a tangy homemade mojo before being doused in signature sauces such as habanero-lime mayo or their famous chimichurri. The garlicky topping requires a full week for its flavors to integrate, according to the Chicago Reader, which heralded Cafecito as one of 2008's best new restaurants. Acclaim has remained strong since then—The Huffington Post and Time Out Chicago included the restaurant on their lists of best Cuban sandwiches in Chicago, the latter in its #1 spot.26 E Congress PkwyChicago, IL US
El Rinconcito CubanoRead MoreEl Rinconcito Cubano's sofrito-based stews, beans and rice are popular options at this Cuban spot. Low-fat foods are not on the menu at El Rinconcito Cubano, though, so plan to indulge a bit. El Rinconcito Cubano is great for families with kids. Be sure to show up for dinner a little early — El Rinconcito Cubano does not accept reservations. Take it nice and easy at El Rinconcito Cubano, where casual dress is the rule of the day. A catering menu is also available if you're looking to dazzle the diners at your next shindig. Dining out isn't your only option here — pickup is available, too. Don't feel like driving? Public transportation is right around the corner, with a nearby stop at Logan Square (Blue). El Rinconcito Cubano patrons can find street parking at the W Fullerton Ave location. You can take it easy on your wallet at El Rinconcito Cubano — prices are generally less than $30 per person. It's strictly cash-only at El Rinconcito Cubano, so make a trip to the ATM first. El Rinconcito Cubano offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so stop by whenever is most convenient for you.3238 W Fullerton AveChicago, IL US
90 Miles Cuban CafeRead MoreIn 1980, the Gonzalez family boarded a shrimp boat in Cuba's Mariel Harbor. They sailed through turbulent waves and wind, finally docking in Key West. The family began working toward their American dream, and eventually gained the resources to open 90 Miles Cuban Café in Chicago. Named for the distance of their initial journey, the café reprises recipes from the Gonzalez's homeland. Pressed Cuban sandwiches, garlic-laced or sweet plantains, and empanadas filled with ingredients such as chorizo and goat cheese rank among the restaurant's specialties. Heartier dishes, such as vaca frita (braised beef with grilled onions) tenderize for hours on low heat. Another slow-cooked dish, puerco rostizado (pork sweetened with guava and prunes) lit up Guy Fieri's taste buds during a segment on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Unlike most Cuban restaurants, this one also offers vegetarian items such as soy beef empanadas and Cuban sandwiches with tofu. Patrons can visit the eatery at two BYOB locations—one in Roscoe village, and the other, with a heated outdoor patio, in Logan Square.3101 North Clybourn AvenueChicago, IL US

How Economic News Moves Markets
|August 2008 Volume 14, Number 6
|JEL classification: E00, G00
Authors: Leonardo Bartolini, Linda Goldberg, and Adam Sacarny
Exploring how the release of new economic data affects asset prices in the stock, bond, and foreign exchange markets, the authors find that only a few announcements—the nonfarm payroll numbers, the GDP advance release, and a private sector manufacturing report—generate price responses that are economically significant and measurably persistent. Bond yields show the strongest response and stock prices the weakest. The authors' analysis of the direction of these effects suggests that news of stronger-than-expected growth and inflation generally prompts a rise in bond yields and the exchange value of the dollar.

We know that during the summer, our kids will be away from the classroom and away from learning. Many parents and teachers worry about summer slide that s when kids forget many of the lessons they learned during the school year.
Linda Morgan, editor of Parentmap and author of the book Beyond Smart has some ideas to keep education going during the summer.
Why is it important that kids keep learning during the summer?
We worry about summer learning loss, also called summer brain drain. Most students lose about two months of grade-level equivalency in skills over the summer months. We know that students score lower on standardized tests at the end of summer than they do on those tests given a few months earlier.
Are there some skills that seem to suffer the most during this time?
Yes math skills decline. Parents tend to keep their kids reading in the summer, but not all of them hit the math piece. Students fall an average of almost 2.6 months behind in math skills during the summer. Why? We are more likely to read to our kids, take them to the library or bookstore. There s more focus on reading activities.
How can kids keep learning while still enjoying their summer vacation?
Make it fun. We can get kids involved in ordinary, every day activities that will help them learn. Plant a garden. Build a bookshelf. Go to a baseball game and talk about strategy and scores. There s learning in baseball. Many schools now offer terrific summer camps and programs that often include technology or study skills, science and field trips. And many museums have summer programs that incorporate learning. All the libraries offer great summer reading programs for kids.
What are some easy ways parents can help their kids prevent summer slide?
Make sure your kids don t forget their arithmetic. Do some grocery-store math: Ask, What can we get for $10? Or menu math: Ask your kids:
What s the most expensive meal on the menu?
What s the least expensive?
If we have $20 to spend, what can we get?
You can count and calculate just about everywhere you go.
Read aloud to your kids on a regular basis. Reading to preschool children is especially important, but reading with older kids on a regular basis will help them as well. And while you re at it, review your child s schoolwork with him. Focus on the subjects your child needs extra help with.
Talk to your children about their experiences and listen to their responses. Take the time to discuss their day at camp, with their friends, about their activities. Visit a museum or the aquarium and discuss the exhibits. Talk with them about the things you read and they read
No one is suggesting that parents just say no to technology altogether. But restrict their children s screen time to two hours a day. Most kids are getting way more than that. And we can be intentional about what our children Stick to the educational TV programs. And watch the shows with your kids.

2010 Ducati Streetfighter Photo Gallery
After the long wait it is finally here.
Motorcycle USA heads to Spain's Ascari Race Resort to sample Ducati's latest street bike motorcycle entry, the naked streetfighting Ducati Streetfighter. Check out what we thought during our
2010 Ducati Streetfighter First Ride
The Streetfighter's chassis is comprised of a black steel-Trellis frame (the S model gets a bronze painted frame) that appears identical to the 1098/1198 Superbike.
Readers are no strangers to the Streetfighters styling, the sleek looking Ducati making its debut late last year.
The Streetfighter utlizes a steel trellis frame, Showa suspension (Ohlins on higher-spec S) and Brembo brakes.
Color options are limited with classic Ducati red, white (only on the standard model) and black (only on S model)
2010 Ducati Streetfighter is ready to hit the streets.
If you're looking for the fastest, most high-performance streetfighter motorcycle, without a doubt the Ducati Streetfighter is it.
It has been hidden in the shadows, but the 2010 Ducati Streetfighter has finally hit the streets... and they will never be the same...
Smoking tires optional.
Based on its more inviting ergonomics and kinder parking-lot speed manners we think it will be much better suited for life in the city.
2010 Ducati Streetfighter's swingarm is 35mm longer than the one on the 1098/1198 Superbike.
Even with its longer wheelbase getting the front wheel of the ground is too easy.
Unfortunately.. she doesn't come with the bike..
Road Test Editor Waheed tests the abrasion resistance of his Alpinestars gear... And it passed.
The DTC system uses independent wheel speed sensors to determine if the rear wheel is spinning, signifying a loss in traction. If a loss of traction is detected, the ECU then reduces engine power until traction is restored.
The higher-spec Ohlins suspension components found on the Streetfighter S were well-suited to track work.
The Ducati Streetfighter may not be a true track motorcycle but it is still fun to fly though the corners - at Ascari or any circuit for that matter.
For some, slowing down is one of the most entertaining elements of a ride. And with the voracious stopping power of the brakes, you'll find yourself dive bombing into corners faster than you probably should.
One of the most exciting features of the new Streetfighter S model is its employment of Ducati's proprietary traction control system.
The 2010 Ducati Streetfighter has finally hit the streets... and they will never be the same aboard the latest Duc.
Sit on the motorcycle and the first thing you notice is its racy, forward slanted riding position. It's not nearly as aggressive as the Superbike, yet it's still at such a level you know you're not riding around on a cruiser.
The Ducati Streetfighter riding position is less agressive but still hints to its sportbike style and heritage.
Note the Ducati Traction Control (DTC) wheel speed sensor on the front wheel of the Streetfighter S.
If you look closely at the front facia, the twin air intakes and LED running lights are located in the same position as the Superbike.
With the DTC system enabled, we didn't notice the rear tire spin at all, which in itself is a testament to its effectiveness, especially when you consider how much power it puts down.
The new Ducati Streetfighter sources a near identical liquid-cooled L-Twin as the 1098 Superbike, with the Streetfighter sporting twin shotgun-style pipes.
The 3.2-mile, 26-turn Ascari Race Resort in southern Spain is about as good as a racetrack gets.
