Let's Play D&D 4th Edition...
KOTS Part 19a:
The grinning continues for a while, the adventurers get back down to business more or less immediately, but their smiles stay with them.
"Ramm- far door. Gokan- guard the rear. Jimmy and Sigur…" Tonka takes a moment, having just realised he has included Sigur in his orders, the dwarf looks at the dragonborn cockeyed, he's also waiting to hear what comes next.
Tonka clears his throat, reddens a little, "…Jimmy and Sigur search the place, anything odd to be found, particularly something that can tell us the way forward."
Ramm and Gokan are already in position, Jimmy salutes Tonka- still smiling, and sets to search mode, Sigur sags- although only slightly, and then he too follows orders.
"Not so difficult." Tonka intones sotto voce, and then tries to shift the smirk from his face.
Several fruitless minutes later the search is concluded- there's nothing to be found, or at least nothing of worth or indeed importance; the rotting corpses are devoid of treasure, the chamber save its sparse trappings- a few cots and the ragged remains of their bedding – is empty.
Which leaves Tonka a little disappointed.
Jimmy shakes his head, Sigur shrugs.
"Oh" Tonka concludes.
"Move out." Tonka quickly decides.
Jimmy and Gokan are to the fore, the pair head forward- outriders for the following trio; the corridor ahead is, well… gloomy, and it seems to go on forever- and with no alternative routes available.
At the back of the group Sigur turns to Ramm, grins at the minotaur and mumbles, "keep yer safe." Sigur nods at the huge fighter and passes something over, instinctively Ramm takes the proffered item, Tonka turns to look back at the pair. Instinctively, again, Ramm makes a fist and hides Sigur's gift.
"Passing notes?" Tonka quips.
Sigur shakes his head, Ramm looks confused.
"I meant… never mind." Tonka returns to eyes front, walks a little faster in an effort to catch up with Jimmy and Gokan.
Sigur grins at Ramm, the dwarf's smile is a little unnerving, even Ramm – the least sociable of the adventurers – knows there's something odd, and a little frightening, about it.
Sigur grins again, even signals thumbs up.
Ramm shakes his head, as if to divest himself of the worrisome image.
The minotaur strides on, and when he thinks no-one is looking uncurls his fingers to see what prize he has been given. In the center of his palm is a locket or brooch, shaped like a shield.
"Magic." Sigur states, the dwarf is watching.
Ramm nods.
"Keep yer safe- protect yer." Sigur adds, and then smiles- again.
Ramm nods, keeping a close eye on the back of Tonka's head.
"Put it on." Sigur intones and then nods towards the beefy minotaur's broad chest.
"Nggh!" Ramm starts, and then spies Tonka turning…
Ramm snorts and makes an odd coughing sound.
Tonka looks back- makes a shushing sound- Ramm nods, the dragonborn turns away again.
Ramm sighs, quietly.
"Put it on." Sigur states again a little while later, and then grins once again at the great minotaur.
Ramm, stuck for an alternative, puts the brooch on- he feels… no different.
"Magic." Sigur adds, and then nods again, "it suits you."
Ramm tries to avoid eye contact with Sigur, he nods back, and then returns to staring at the back of Tonka's head- as if nothing has happened.
The adventurers continue to walk silently down the seemingly endless, and increasingly gloomy, corridor.
"Stay frosty people." Tonka loudly declares, guaranteeing the element of surprise is lost.
Sigur tuts and shakes his head.
Ramm, inadvertently, mimics the once surly dwarf.
Sigur notices.
And smiles at Ramm.
Ramm, much to his annoyance, finds himself smiling back.
Sigur nods- just once.
Ramm nods back- again, just once.
The pair walk on.
Ten yards later and Jimmy and Gokan are in sight, and there are noises, a raised voice- perhaps a woman's voice, indistinct but… there's something odd and yet at the same time familiar about it. There are lights, ahead, through a pair of open doors.
The sneaky pair signal for silence- the adventurers move up, into a huddle.
"There's a large chamber ahead…" Gokan starts.
"…it looks like a church, at least…" Jimmy adds.
"…vaulted, and…" Gokan continues.
"…massive." Jimmy finishes.
"Sounds like some sort of…" Jimmy shrugs.
"Ceremony?" Gokan wonders.
Tonka nods. "Let's get closer- take a look." Tonka nods seemingly at random at various party members, and then follows Jimmy and Gokan quietly forward, towards the pair of great stone doors ahead, both portals have been wedged open- seemingly in ages past.
Ramm tries to follow but his arm is suddenly grasped and dragged back by Sigur, the dwarf quickly lets go and grins once again at the minotaur.
"Keep me safe." Sigur states, and nods towards the chamber ahead.
Ramm looks confused.
"Keep me safe." Sigur echoes, and nods again.
"Don't let anything bad happen to me." Sigur adds, and for the tiniest moment looks… serious, like he means it.
Ramm searches his brain for the right answer.
"I don't want to end here." Sigur tries again, his voice in places oddly high-pitched.
Sigur nods again, slowly- solemnly this time.
Up ahead Tonka hisses- Sigur and Ramm turn to stare at the dragonborn. Tonka hisses again, louder- an admonition, and then circles one arm, ordering the pair to move up- and be quick about it.
"Ple…" Sigur starts.
Ramm swiftly nods at the dwarf and then strides forward, away from Sigur, at pace.
"Quiet!" Tonka hisses, the great minotaur slows and tries desperately to obey the order.
Behind him Sigur looks… terrified.
Ramm's prize- a +1 Brooch of Shielding.

Killin' It 086: Updates: NY Times & Marie Laveau
It's been busy here and I'm finally getting a chance to update. Damon Stang my partner in the Witches' Compass and I were featured in the NY Times for our rituals at Catland. Feeling very honored that they chose to do a piece on us and the slide show is lovely. Here are a few shots by Kirsten Luce.
I also recently finished this portrait of Marie Laveau. It took about 2 days.
The London Conjure site is live and we'll be adding more posts about rootwork, conjure and cleansings as we go along. I created the look and feel of the site and we've got a great new youtube channel that has been getting lots of wonderful feedback. Will post a link to one of the videos discussing Marie Laveau.If you'd like to explore the London Conjure site please click the pic below.

The FBI had been keeping tabs on the couple for several years, but ramped up their case in April 2009, when an undercover FBI counterintelligence agent posing as a Cuban representative approached Kendall Myers about doing more work for Cuban intelligence. The undercover operation lured the couple to try and return to their previous spying activity. Prosecutors overseeing the case today said that Gwendolyn was more difficult to convince but that her husband's true reason for spying was that it provided him with excitement.
Assistant US Attorney Michael Harvey told the Judge that in April 2009 Myers told his wife, "I was actually thinking it would be fun to get back into it."
After the couple was arrested in June 2009, they quickly worked towards securing a plea deal with the government to seek leniency for Gwendolyn, who has had extensive health problems. Harvey told Judge Walton Friday that Kendal Myers should be given the maximum sentence for his spying. "He is a traitor," said Harvey. "He betrayed his colleagues at the State Department ... he betrayed his country ... and today shows no remorse."
Before issuing the life sentence for the couple Judge Walton echoed Harvey's statement, saying, "I see no sense of remorse. You were proud of what you did."
Judge Walton, whose grandfather was born into slavery, told the couple he felt America provides a great opportunity to its citizens, "The United States has a lot to be proud of, which is something that you can't seem to acknowledge."
Walton then sentenced Kendall Myers to life in prison without parole. Myers showed little expression when the sentence was announced, and little expression during the almost 90 minute hearing. Gwendolyn showed strain in her face. Noting that Gwendolyn was receiving the benefit of the government's plea deal with the couple, Walton sentenced her to 81 months in federal prison.
CLICK HERE to follow the ABC News Investigative Team's coverage on Twitter.
The couple has asked that they serve their prison sentences close to each other so that their family of six children and seven grandchildren can visit them.
Asked about the case, U.S. State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said on Friday, "We believe that in this case of Kendall Myers, the severe punishment was warranted by the nature of his crime. This was a serious breach of national security and, by committing acts of espionage, he grievously violated the confidence placed in him by the Department of State and the American people."

My Favorite! Red Rock Canyon- Hiking, beautiful scenery. A must see while you are visiting this beautiful area.
Hoover dam- 35 miles away
We chose this home because of the location. Having family and many friends in the Las Vegas area, we narrowed our search down to Henderson and Summerlin. We love the convenience, low crime and great amenities that the neighborhood has to offer. We love the outdoors and spend a lot of time hiking, boating and exploring Lake Mead National park. This home is located near our favorite grocery stores, shopping centers and local restaurants. Green Valley was the first master planned community in Las Vegas. If you do a search of Green Valley on the internet, you too will see why we think this is one of the best places to be!
This was a true he away from home. Comfy bed and a kitchen with every need.Close to a wonderful public pool for lap swimming and many bike trails nearby. Hope we can go again sometime.
Super comfortable! Easy access and close to shopping and great restaurants. Quiet neighborhood for relaxing and easy drive to the strip for a night out! Way better than staying at any resort!
The background pool is quite private and very enjoyable to relax and enjoy the weather! All the amenities of being at home! Great for a group or a sweet romantic getaway for a couple!
This home is well appointed and supplied while located within a quiet and convenient neighborhood. We arrived and found the home clean and ready to go. The pool and surrounding covered patio makes for a wonderful place to spend time and enjoy the weather. We enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend it highly.
We have rented thru VRBO for a couple of years. This home is one of the top favorites for us. We had plenty of room, nice amenities throughout the home. There were 4 adults in our group, we never felt cramped or crowded. Plenty of space. The beds were super comfortable. The homeowner went out of her way to see that we were comfortable. She thought of everything we could possibly need to make our stay enjoyable.
This home is very central to all the casinos, shops and activities, yet far away from the hustle and bustle of the downtown area. Whole Foods and Smith's were just around the corner. Great restaurants were close by too. Added bonus was the pool and clubhouse.
My family and I adored our stay at Susan's beautiful villa. The house is extremely clean and well kept, with very comfortable furnishings. Just a short drive to the airport and Strip, but in a very quiet neighborhood near food and shopping. This was exactly the Vegas getaway we were looking for - awesome house, quiet 'hood, but close enough to the action. Susan is a LOVELY owner too, very helpful and accommodation. Will definitely stay here again!
This was my first rental using the VRBO website and I have to say I really was blessed to have found this owner/property. To start off- the owner is more than communicative, helpful and patient. She addressed all of my concerns by email and phone, so before we even arrived at the home I felt safe and secure about my payment and stay. The home is located in a great area- very accessible from a main street with grocery store, fast food, coffee shops, etc. There was a code on the door- so we did not have to keep track of the key- this was really helpful with so many people coming/going. There were 7 adults and a 2 year old and everyone was more than comfortable in the bedrooms. I would say the one bedroom has a full bed (as shown/stated in pictures) if a couple or tall person is counting on this room it might be a bit small, but still comfortable. Our two year loved the park just a quick walk down the street and the pool/hot tub were perfect. Very quiet and clean. The back patio was secluded and quiet with a grill, we spent two morning just sitting outside on the patio furniture sipping coffee and eating breakfast. This house also has EVERYTHING you could possibly need- every appliance, pans, cooking tool, etc. There was even a stack of cards- which entertained us Saturday night. The bathroom towels were very soft- nothing like the crappy towels you get in a hotel :) The master bedroom/bathroom was outstanding- picture perfect with a large tub, walk in closet, king bed and TV. This house was clean- very clean, but not to the point where you felt uncomfortable sitting on furniture, walking carpet, etc. Parking was also great between the garage, driveway and close guest parking. I cannot say enough great things about this owner/property......we frequently use Las Vegas as a meeting point for our family and we will absolutely stay at this property or another property of this owner in the future. You will not be disappointed.
2 miles to the luxurious and renowned Green Valley Ranch Resort and Casino, 12 minutes to the airport and strip, 15 minutes to Lake Mead.
Arroyo Grande Sports Complex is located less than 1/2 a mile away. It is a remarkable 56 acre park that has basketball courts, baseball fields, horseshoes, playground and picnic tables. It was voted as 2011's best family park in the Las Vegas area.
Red Rock Canyon is wonderful for hiking, horseback riding and sightseeing. It is located 25 minutes away and is a spectacular place for outdoor enthusiasts! Red Rock Canyon Activities
You can go horseback riding in the morning and have a Red Rock wedding in the afternoon; you can bring the family out for a picnic, and pet the wild burros that line the road just at feeding time.
The Red Rock Canyon area is, arguably, the most beautiful area in Nevada—perhaps the southwest. Whether you are a rock climber, a hiker, a rock hound, or just appreciate the beauty of wild horses, bighorn sheep, and wild burros roaming free, this part of Nevada is just for you. View a slide-show of some of the Canyon's natural wonders here, or enjoy some photos of Blue Diamond from the air courtesy of a local pilot.
There's also a hiking map of the Red Rock Loop.

AP Interview: Cameron wants UK to remain in EU
Thursday - 1/24/2013, 10:51am EST
By MARTIN BENEDYK
Associated Press
DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) - British Prime Minister David Cameron shrugged off the possibility that his country may vote to leave the European Union, and argued Thursday that his vision of a changed Europe on Britain's terms is eminently achievable.
In an interview with The Associated Press at the World Economic Forum in the Swiss resort of Davos, Cameron said he wanted to achieve change in Europe "so that we can secure Britain's place within it."
His comments come a day after he rattled nerves and raised ire across Europe by offering British citizens the prospect of a vote on whether to stay in the 27-country EU.
"We trust the people to take that choice," he said.
"But what I want to achieve is change in Europe, to make it more open, competitive and flexible," he said. "That is what I'm going to be fighting for over the coming years. It's the right agenda for Britain, it's the right agenda for Europe, and I think it is eminently achievable."
His promise of a vote if his Conservative Party wins the next general election, expected in 2015, formed the backdrop to discussions he had with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The two met Thursday at the forum, an annual gathering of political and business leaders where his referendum offer was one of the hottest topics for debate.
In the interview with The AP, Cameron also ruled out the prospect of sending British combat troops to Mali. However, he said Britain will offer more help to a French-led force that is battling Islamist extremists who are threatening a swath of northwest Africa.
"We're not going to get involved in sending combat troops to Mali. That isn't the role we're going to play," he said.
Britain is supporting the operation with C-17 transport planes and logistics support, and British trainers will help Nigerian and other West African troops provide security in the region, he said.
"We'll be giving the (French) other assistance as well," he added, without elaborating.

The Worf & Troi romance... what are your thoughts on it?

Re: The Worf & Troi romance... what are your thoughts on it?
It was a weak idea, without doubt, but look on the bright side, it did wonders for fixing that awful "Ill advised romance of the week" phenomenon she'd had for far too long
The douche from "The Price"
The geek from Masterpiece Society
The Creep from Man of The People
Although, in her defense, Beverly's passing ship's were far creepier, the metamorphosing man, the symbiont that ends up in Riker, & the god awful Ghost
The ugliest part of the show were everyone's one off romance episodes. Picard's 2 were the only ones that even worked at all
The show needed a healthy budding relationship, or at least they thought so, & they'd exhausted the Riker/Troi & Crusher/Picard angles. They were grasping at straws

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas A 26-year-old man is dead after jumping from the second deck of a party boat and drowning in Lake Conroe Saturday night, deputies said.
According to the Montgomery County Precinct 1 Constables Lake Patrol, deputies, the Lake Conroe Fire Department and the North Montgomery County Fire Department were called out to the April Sound Marina after a report of a possible drowning just after 8:30 p.m.
When emergency responders arrived at the scene, they were told that a 26-year-old Ross Lehmberg, of Mason, Texas, had been with a group of almost 50 Texas A&M fraternity members on the Conroe Boat Rental party barge.
The fraternity brothers said Lehmberg jumped off the second deck into the water. On the way to the water he struck the lower deck.
Lehmberg went under and did not resurface, witnesses said. Several fraternity members jumped into the water in attempt to save him, but were unable to locate the student.
Precinct 1 dive teams were dispatched and worked in the wind blown choppy water until 12:30 a.m. when Lehmberg was recovered.
Lehmberg graduated from Texas A&M in 2011.
Zack Villasana, one of Lehmberg s closest friends, says he was supposed to join Ross on this trip, but decided not to go. He describes Lehmberg as a genuinely good person, a fun-loving guy who made friends everywhere he went. He last saw him a couple days ago when they went to see the new Spiderman movie.
Justice of the Peace Wayne Mack responded to the scene and ordered Eickenhorst Funeral Directors to transport the victim to the Montgomery County Forensic Center for autopsy.
The barge was escorted by Precinct 1 deputies to the April Plaza Marina where they were assisted by both the District Attorney s Office and the Sheriff s Office in getting statements from each fraternity member before they boarded the bus for the trip back to College Station.
Lt. Tim Cade with the Lake Patrol said there was alcohol onboard at the time of the incident.

The approach that the Bible-inspired series "A.D. The Bible Continues" has settled upon is now clear. The first half of the average episode — and sometimes more than the first half — consists of historical drama based only loosely on the period. The episode then climaxes with stirring scenes taken more or less from the biblical text.

The cultural enthrall over the dystopian genre that ignited and took off with books and movies like the Hunger Games and the Divergent series hasn't subsided but rather intensified. In fact, these initial 21st century dystopian novels set the stage and opened the way for countless writers to delve further into the dystopian realm, creating and recreating hypothetical utopian and dystopian realities.

Re: So... where next?
Isn't Bryan Singer's Battlestar Galactica film going to be a thing? Not the reboot he proposed before Ron Moore got to develop the franchise, I mean his more recent stab with the film rights (which Syfy never had).
Not something that will fit into the canon of Ron D. Moore's show (well, Singer is
about this, but I think we can at least assume it's a reboot with a new Adama and a new Galactica), but last I heard it was still going ahead. That, if anything, is the future of BSG.
In general I think the nuBSG franchise is over, barring some more Blood & Chrome. I'd already gone through the post-mortems after Caprica, which - for all its flaws - was the best chance of a contiuation it ever had.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Things you've never got round to in Skyrim
Hey Folks!,
I was just thinking, I've owned the game since release, and yet I've still never;
- Collected all the shouts
- Got all the Stones of Barenziah and finished the Thieves Guild 100%
- Got the Reader achievement on one character, I mean, I've probably got all the books across all my characters, but never focused on doing it on one.
- Stuck with a 2-handed build
Anyone else?
I've never not read this topic already.
And also got married in game.
Crappy spelling due to my iPod.
The Chronic what cles of Narnia._
I've never played two-handed, or Illusion.
Don't let the dragon drag on!
- Stones of Barenziah (Wasn't worth the reward IMO, already have more money than I know what to do with and horde precious gems in all playthroughs)
- Finished Stormcloak side (Not that I prefer the Empire, but just didn't feel that my characters would side with them)
- Lockpicking tree (Utterly useless except for a few equipped items you can pickpocket. With respec options, this is even more useless)
- Unarmed (Even with resto looping, I always found it got boring very quickly. If I had PC mods to make kill animations more frequent, then maybe)
- Reaper Gem fragments (Soul Cairn is a bore to me. I found about 3-4 while looking for arvak & conjuration spells, didn't want to stay there more than I had to)
- Oblivion Walker achievement. (Keeping within a character's mindset is very important for me. Just haven't gotten around to it with my Chaotic Neutral mage)
- Bought Hjerim or Proudspire manor. (Hadn't gotten around to it yet)
- Heathfire (Don't have it)
- Found all paragons in forgotten vale. (I got the ones that give me auriel's shield, didn't care for much else)
- Got married. (I have four characters, all of which are bachelors atm. I can see two of them getting married, but only at the end of their quests)
- Powered up the Ebony Blade to its fullest potential.
- Killed Parthy
- A "blood-kin" quest. (Was automatically granted access whenever I came upon one. Probably helped a filthy ogre out in skyrim somewhere)
- Dragon Priest masks at Labyrinthian (I have them, just never got around to it)
- Dread Zombied a Chicken.
I've played over 500 hours and never completed the main quest.
lalallaalal posted...
I've played over 500 hours and never completed the main quest.
I did it exactly once, you're not missing much ;)
Played anything other than nord?
Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder.
Thieves Guild
Dark Brotherhood

Unusual Gems
All the Daedric quests
Killed Paarth or done any of the Blade Sidequests

Brokeback Idaho, Chasing the Nez and Stompin' Stanley
This is the story about my recent 18 day 1730 mile adventure ride with my good friend PeterMAN and our broke back Idaho adventure of discovery.
The plan was pretty simple and was hatched months if not years before... Peter had been trying to talk me into doing the Nez Peirce ride for years. I finally signed up in time and this was the year.
The plan was simple enough... we're going. We had not even determined a meet up location until just days before the event. Madras Oregon which was a mid point for both of us. Finally Madras has a purpose... a place to meet, gas and go.
I was riding my trusted steed, a 2008 WR250X set up for adventure touring and PeterMAN was riding his trusted KLR 685, Grasshopper.
Not many pics of the early part of the trip. We met up at Safeway which was easy to find. The place we were going to have lunch was closed so we just rode onward... planning to stop at John Day City Park for the night.
Just the other side of Prineville we rode through a pretty good storm that dropped hail up to the size of a quarter from the sky... PeterMAN was a fair bit ahead and I swear I could hear him shouting Ouch, ouch, OUCH as we rode through the storm and over the summit.
We stopped in Mitchell for gas and lunch at Tasty Treat... it was pretty good.
We stopped a little further up the road for stogies then on to Jonh Day to set up camp for the night.
A surprise to us, the City Park was charging for camping. This was new and unexpected. Also, they had painted the area and assigned numbers and set up plastic posts and roped off areas, it was all official and stuff.
We camped in PeterMANs favorite spot in the back and headed into town for provisions... Chicken parts, pasta salad and beer. Life was good.
End of day 1.

Day 2 starts a bit rough for me... I did NOT sleep well at all as I was not able to charge my cpap battery and there was not power available. In my rush and lack of actual planning I had forgotten about this.
I plugged the battery into a charger at the RV park and waited for it to charge while we broke camp. If any of you have experienced this you know what I was going through, I needed to sort this out and the sooner the better.
We packed up and headed out... chasing PeterMAN through the desert we passed all sorts of critters... Peter nearly hits a snake on the road and it sets up and strikes at me as I ride past... not very nice Mr. Snattlerake!
There was a corpse in the road that looked to me like a ferule pig, neither of us were sure what it was...
It was a long hot ride into Boise. First we stopped at Radio Shack... they had parts but would not help with soldering or actually putting anything together. Next we stopped at the local BMW dealer to try to sort out my CPAP battery charging issue. They didn't have what I needed but they did call the local Battery Plus store and verified that they could help. We headed there and experienced the best service I have ever received... A technician there sold me an inverter, changed the power plug from a cigarette lighter plug to the RCA plug that I had bought at Radio Shack and tested it to make sure it would work. This was a 200 WATT coffee cup shaped inverter with 2 outlets and a USB 5V 1A outlet. It was perfect! Finally I was able to charge my CPAP battery while I ride.
Photo credit to Peterman.
Onward and upwards... Gas and refreshments at Idaho City then on to camp for the night near Sour Dough at a place that was shared with me by a local girl at the gas station. It was perfect, secluded and right on the "Pay It River" (almost... read on) It was dubbed Camp Oasis.
PeterMAN is happy after setting up camp...
The view...
The girl at the station had called and checked on fire restrictions and had said that a fire was restricted to established sites and that this site had an established fire ring so a fire should be ok. We checked the sign at the camp and there was nothing restricting it. There were no trees overhead and the pit was deep with nothing but dirt around it for several feet... perfect...
It was nice to have a camp fire.... until someone hotrodded into camp kicking up dust and shining his bright lights on us... It was a forest ranger asking us why we were having a fire in a fire restricted area. We tried to tell him that the girl at the station had called and checked and that we checked the sign for restrictions but he was having nothing to do with it and threatened to issue us a fine if we kept talking (arguing).
We took out bucket and shovel and doused the fire... heck, we were just about to do it anyway when he showed up... He was unable to print us a warning ticket because his printer didn't work. I suppressed the comment about not being able to issue us a ticket then... probably smart.
Anyway, after a very restful slumber and a real mans crap in the woods it was time to saddle up for day 3.

Day 3 on the road...
We both knew that we had seen no sign warning about the restrictions. We checked the sign at camp and sure enough there was no notice there. The "big yellow sign you had to ride by to get here" was no where to be seen.
On the way out we did see the sign, but we had come in on a quad road and it was NOT visible from that entry point... we were not lying.
Onwards and upwards... Peter pulls over to add a layer as we ascend.
On to Stanley...
Peter gets a shot of me with my trailer in tow...
and gets a great shot of the Sawtooths as we ride...
On to the Sawmill... If any of you are worth your salt you will stop in Sawmill to gas up and get yourself the very best steak and eggs on the planet... Mmm Mmmm Mmmm! Couldn't even get a pic, it was that good. Anytime I am within hundreds of miles of this place I look forward to stopping. Breakfast on the patio was awesome. The fact that a womans bicycle group was riding through the area did not hamper the view .
After breakfast it was on to Bayhorse Lake CG to set up camp for the first night of the Nez Pierce Run.
Then it was on to town for provisions.
While we were there we checked out the cockeyed crosswalk between the two bars on main street...
It needs repainted. The story is that the locals painted the crosswalk so thehy could safely walk from one bar to the other
Back at camp, dinner did not disappoint...
The support rig for the event was very cool too...
This was the first day at the event. We had ridden 716.8 miles to get here and it was worth it.

Day 4, 1st day of the Nez!
We wake after a restful slumber... have breakfast and pack up camp. Anyone wondering why I titled this broke back Idaho should have seen me and Peterman after making or braking camp
Mike needs to work on the support van. He needed to burp air from the cooling system after his bypass repair when a hose had broke the day before. I help him with that then pack up.
Peter and I are the last to leave camp. As I hit my starter my battery is dead. I guess the technology on the inverter that shouldn't let you drain down the battery while charging is not working as expected... bummer.
We are able to start the bike rolling down the hill.
All is good for about 2 miles... Right on a steep shale slide area my rear gets really squirly and it took a lot to keep the bike from going over the edge and over the side, several hundred feet. Pucker factor was high as the trailer likes to push the bike in this instance. It was close.
I was able to get it down to a flatter area with some shade so I could change the tube.
Whats wrong with this picture?
The culprit! Never seen a screw like this before and it was sure out of place up here in the wilderness...
Anyway, with the delay we decide to go get gas and shorten our adventure to the next camp. It was not a bad decision...
As we head off on the shortened route we discover what the word gulch means... Silt beds.
I ride through the first one and stop to make sure Peter makes it. He does and I head into the second one... now, the first one was bad enough, but this one was much longer and a lot worse. The dist was more than Axel deep and the ruts and rocks beneath were bad... I barely made it through. I waited on the other side... and waited... and waited.... crap. I had to ride back to check on Peter. He was down in the middle. I could not stop, I had to ride to the other side then wade back to him.
After making sure he was ok I took this pic.
The pic does not do this justice. It was hard for both of us to lift the loaded bike back up. Hos tool tube had broke loose on one side and the left mirror was broken. At least he was ok.
We had both had enough of the silt beds and decided to bypass this section. On the way out we passed a large truck with a big section of pipe or something. It was fun getting around the truck on this road.
Then on to the good stuff.
Camp for the night...
If you look close you can see trails up this sheer face... or maybe it was down it... but either way, WOW!
This was a great spot by the creek...
More camp pics...
Dinner did NOT suck!
For perspective...
Nothing short of amazing!
This was bear country and I thought for sure we would have them poking around camp as you could smell this cooking no matter if you were up wind or down. We did not leave any for the bears... it was delicious!
End of day 1 of the Nez. 828 miles since leaving home. Camp was at 7163'. An eventful start .

Nez Day 2, Adventure day 5.
After a restful slumber and a delicious meal we pack up. Again Peter and I are the last to leave camp. This is mostly my fault as I am in no hurry.
We hit the road and I have a close call early. On the way out I saw a juvenile Coyote and a beautiful Red Tail Hawk.
I am a bit concerned about not having a spare tube anymore and I take it easy. We head into town for lunch and gas then get started on the days adventure.
After a bit of a detour we head into the canyon... the views are stunning.
As we ride along I start to find my groove and the speed starts to creep up, and up, and up.... soon we are flying and I am loving it! A little while later I come up on 3 riders. It is hard to believe we closed on them and passed them so fast. It was right before a cattle guard for me... passing a KTM 990, then a KTM 950, then the big BMW GS, passing the first just before the cattle guard and flying through the air past the second and landing to pass the third... I wish I had footage.
The ride didn't seem to last long at all. Soon we were across the desert and back into the mountains. I had a close call with a deer just a few miles from camp.
We were the 3rd and 4th bike to make it to camp and we got a fantastic spot, the best of the trip. It was right on the creek and there was a waterfall in camp, awesome.
The view out my front door made me think of my friend Ladybug.... flowers for her...
My setup inside the tent...
From across the creek...
Camp PeterMAN...
another flower shot...
It was nice to be able to take a shower in the middle of nowhere.
After cleaning up and unwinding for a bit we hiked across the creek to try to get a better look at a couple of raptors. That's when we came across this tree that had healed around a fallen branch from a fire years ago...
We never got a good look at the bird. I suspect it was a Coopers Hawk.
This was a great day.
935.3 miles since leaving home. Camp was at 7298'.

Nez Day 3, Adventure day 5.
Another restful night and we are up and at em.
Have breakfast and head out. It dawns on me how lucky I was the day before and I take it a lot easier. I don't want to risk getting a flat without a spare tube.
We stop off at a hot spring that has tropical fish then continue on. While we are stopped I notice I am missing a bolt to my side stand. I don't have a spare this size and there is no way to wire it. I tighten the other bolt holding it but due to the way it is mounted I need to take it easy. We opt for pavement and take it easy. As we ride into Chalice there is evidence of the fires nearby. The fire camp is in full swing and tankers and helicopters are all over the place.
On the way to camp we see another Red Tailed Hawk, deer and a herd of Big Horn Sheep.
We set up camp at Chalice Hot Springs and enjoy a shower and a soak.
Another awesome meal...

Nez Day 4, Adventure Day 8
Fresh and relaxed, it is time to break camp for the last time on the Nez.
The day prior a friend had found me a replacement bolt for my side stand and a spare tube! Awesome.
I put the bolt on with some lock tight and was set for adventure.
We had intended to ride Custer Motorway, but it was still closed due to the fire and had not opened yet. We slabbed it to Grand Jean and the Sawtooth Lodge.
We set up camp and relaxed...
This was the first day of the Stanley Stomp.... a lot of these bikes were not suitable for the Nez.
The van made it...
It was my last night with my Nez Brothers and I was a little sad in a way. I had signed up for the Stomp too but I didn't really know anyone. No problem, this is an adventure, right?
I had met a lot of good people and some old friends on the Nez... I will be back. I made some new friends that I plan to keep.
1137 miles since leaving home. Camp was at 5134'.

Stanley Stomp Day 2, Adventure Day 9
Today Peter packs up and heads for home. It sure was fun adventuring with him again and I am a little sad to see him ride off.
I spent the day lounging around camp, taking in a few presentations and swimming a few laps in the pool. Life was good.
I picked up a new Helinox Chair from Greg, a vender that had set up shop.
I have thoroughly tested this chair and while I have a Kermit, this thing really has grown on me. It packs up tiny and weighs only 2 pounds. Before I tried one I would not have believed it would be suitable for me, but it is and I am happy that Greg was there and that he was willing to let me try one.

Stomp Day 3, Adventure Day 10
Day 3 of the Stomp. I lounged again around camp... hung out at the booth with Greg and his lovely wife helping to sell a few chairs with my stress test demo .
Overnight 18 new fires were started by lightning all within a 35 mile radius of camp. This was a little concerning as there was only one way in or out of camp up an 11 mile dirt road. The smoke was bad when the wind blew one way and a lot of ash settled when it shifted the other way.
We also received news that a murderer had been spotted with a hostage only 30 miles from camp. Authorities had recommended carrying your weapon in close ready access and not to stop for strangers.
It turned out they got him later that night.

Stomp Day 4, Adventure Day 11
Last day at the stomp. Most of the attendees were excited to get the big streak dinner tonight.
I took a short rip up the end of the road. The trails were not open due to fire danger. I rolled back to camp, did my laundry and enjoyed a shower and a swim.
The smoke was getting worse. The sunsets were pretty different.
Enjoying camp in my new chair...
Dinner did not suck!
Last night in this camp...

Adventure home
After packing up I ripped up the road passing a few people on the way with a friendly wave.
Someone broke stride and paced with me for a while but I was feeling it and it felt good rip down the gravel.
I rode down to Boise to visit with family.
My nephew was on leave from Texas after finishing his tour in Afghanistan.
I think my great niece was glad to see me...
I spent a week visiting rolling home 6 days later.
1732 miles total and miles of smiles.
The last day was pretty long riding the little 250 all the way home in one day... but I would do it again tomorrow.
I used 1 tube, replaced 1 kickstand bolt and that's it. I really enjoy this little bike
Let me know if you have questions.
I will be doing a review of the Helinox chair and the Geigerrig Tactical hydration system later.
Enjoy the ride

Dixons offers Christmas jobs to Comet staff
By Rebecca Burn-Callander, managementtoday.co.uk, Wednesday, 07 November 2012 05:05PM
Comet staff facing redundancy have been offered a little Christmas cheer: they're getting first dibs on new jobs at Dixons. Well, it is the season of giving...
Comet went into administration after losing its credit insurance last week, but stores are being kept open while administrators Deloitte search desperately for a buyer. This leaves the firm's 7,000 staff in a pretty precarious situation, however, which is where Dixons comes in.
The electricals chain has offered to snap up Comet's staff as part of its seasonal hiring splurge. 'We are taking on a total of 3,000 people - 2,000 in the stores,' says chief executive of Dixons Retail, Sebastian James. 'We have delayed our recruitment so that Comet colleagues who want to join our stores can get a chance to do so.'
Of course, if Comet's staff start leaving its shops in droves, the business is going to be an even harder sell for Deloitte. But Dixons would be mad to pass up the chance to get its hands on hundreds of staff, ready trained in the dark arts of flogging tellies and fridges. Apparently over 300 of Comet's staff - some still in uniform - have already made their way into Dixons' stores enquiring after jobs.
Dixons' James insists that he means Comet no ill will by issuing this invitation: 'We're not out trying to poach,' he says. Although he does add, somewhat conversely: 'We are hoping we will get as many as possible of the Comet colleagues to join us.' Of course, in the service of equal opportunities, James is at pains to add that all applicants for Dixons roles will be chosen purely on merit.
However the chances of Dixons actually stepping in to buy Comet are slim to none. 'As we look across the country we are pretty much on all the same parks they are, so it doesn't really make sense for us to do that,' said James. And with Dixons shares jumping by 12% last week after Comet's collapse, it certainly looks to be a much happier Christmas for Dixons' shareholders than poor old Comet's.

Big ballet stage beckons for these talented dancers
Posted: June 26, 2013|
TEN young, talented ballerinas have been plieing and pirouetting their way through hours of rehearsals after winning places in a top company.
The dedicated dancers, all aged between nine and 15, are preparing for a production of Giselle at the New Theatre in Cardiff — with the English Youth Ballet (EYB).
And they are certainly being put through their paces, putting in 60 hours of rehearsals for the performance and giving them an insight into the life of a ballerina.
One of those exceptional dancers is Erin Thomas, from Sketty, a pupil at the Isaac Clarke Academy of Dance.
She said: "I am 15 years old and I have been dancing since I was three. I am looking forward to dancing with EYB and getting the experience of dancing with the professionals. I'd love to have a career in dance, but I know it doesn't happen very easily, so I am concentrating on my school work as well as my dancing."
Another successful ballet dancer came from Mellin Theatre Arts and the remaining eight are students at the Raie Copp School of Dance, both of which are in Swansea.
Proud Raie Copp principal Melanie Sullivan described it as an incredible achievement for the students and the school, adding: "The girls really can't wait, they're so excited, even though it's such a busy few months for us all.
"We have a competition in Pontypool next weekend, so at the moment the dancers are having to travel between there and Cardiff and then back to Swansea.
"It's a serious dedication from the girls of course, but it also means a lot of support from the parents ferrying them to and fro."
International principal ballerinas, who have studied and worked with the likes of the Royal Ballet, the English National Ballet and the San Francisco Ballet, are teaching the choreographed routines over an intense 10-day programme.
And the seven professional dancers will be performing alongside their excited new protégés. British principal ballerina, Julianne Rice Oxley said: "The young dancers we are working with in Cardiff have great energy and attack.
"I feel very privileged to be a principal with the EYB as I get to work with some of the UK's most talented young dancers. I find them incredibly inspiring."
There will be three performances of Giselle, one on Friday and two on Saturday.

STUDIO CITY — Despite warnings that it is inviting a lawsuit, the Los Angeles City Council voted Wednesday to reject a proposal that would allow the construction of six luxury homes at the northern end of Hazelbrook Road.
Buttressed by opposition from the Studio City Residents' Assn., Councilman Joel Wachs argued that the hilly property is too steep to accommodate more than two or three houses.
However, other council members cited a city attorney's opinion that the Board of Zoning Appeals' action approving the six parcels as legal building sites could not be properly reversed because the applicant met the legal standards required.
"If you listen to the city attorney's opinion, you basically have an outrage without a remedy," Wachs said before the 9-4 vote to uphold the residents' appeal.

Create full-featured calendars, including recurring events.
ExpressionEngine users have clamored for a good calendar solution for years, and now it's here. The Solspace Calendar module is the first true calendar module for EE.
Tired of hacky workarounds to emulate calendar-like behavior in EE? Throw 'em out. The Calendar module offers up both power and simplicity, giving you all kinds of options to satisfy your calendar needs. Need a simple display of daily activities? It's easy with Calendar. How about a monthly calendar? No sweat. And what if you want to fully control every table, div, and class that makes up the HTML that will become your calendar? The Calendar module can do that, too.
The Calendar module utilizes the power of EE's native channel module. Every calendar and every event you create can therefore feature as many custom fields and categories as you like. If you can do it to an entry in EE, you can do it to a calendar or event.
Events in Calendar can recur using all kinds of customizable rules. Need weekly events? No problem. Got a book club that meets on the 3rd Tuesday of every month? Easy. How about a meeting on the first Monday, third Wednesday, and fifth Tuesday, but never on the 1st, 15th, or 31st of the month? Yeah, Calendar can do that, too. (But you should really think about simplifying your meeting schedules!)
Last but not least, the Calendar module can even import and export ICS data. That's right, you can import from and export to other calendar applications like Google Calendar, iCal, Outlook, and more.
NOTE: If you have MSM (Multiple Site Manager) installed, Calendar will currently only work on the primary Site.
The chart below shows the current technical requirements and compatibility for the latest version of Calendar (1.8.13).
We've applied Calendar to a number of challenging projects, including a major University to a well-known movie theater in NYC, and it has come through every single time. We recommend it highly! – ejaeDesign
My client was looking for a calendar on their directory site after a lot of searching around and trying to build our own in house, we settled on Calendar from Solspace. – Insignia Creative
The output is really customizable making it look really streamlined on your site, and not just another 3rd party solution that's plugged into your site with no thought whatsoever. – bcw
Perfect for a church website, this add-on saved a ton of time in getting a church calendar up and running. The .ics integration worked fine, and hooking up multiple calendars was easy. – devrsw

It doesn't matter... cloth, disposable, whatever... he blows out of his diaper now that he is on solid food. I mean, how many baths can a baby have in one day when he is covered in poo???Any suggestions as to what to do? I have several types of cloth diapers, and all of them the same result. Grovia, fuzzibunz, Bum Genius, Apple Cheeks (so that means all in ones, or prefold, etc) This has been happenig for more than a week. Do you have this problem? What do you do???
Blow outs! Babies are explosive, but come on! Help!

Nope...you must have an issue with fit (assuming the diapers are being changed frequently). Try some prefolds with a snappi and covers...you should not have this problem.
I would definitely say this is a fit issue. How big is your baby and how do you have the settings on the OS? If you could take pics of the waist and leg holes or wherever the poo is coming from that might help. The only time I EVER have had a poop leak on a CD was in the first week when my son was a NB (over 2 years ago) and we had him in the wrong size.
I thought that fit might be an issue, which is why I tried all my cloth diapers, plus disposable. So, with the cloth, he generally oozes out of the leg. One leg, or the other, generally not both at the same time, although that happened too. with the disposable, he leaked out of the back.
My son is almost 7 months old, but only about 15-16 lbs. And, he is about 29 inches, so he's a tall, lean baby but with super strong legs (no fat, really, but you can see muscle when he jumps in the jumperoo, lol). The settings on the OS are in the 2nd snap out of three. Realistically, I can tighten all of the diapers so that they are too tight on the leg and on the stomach. So, even though he is skinny, the diapers can be snapped too small, to the point that they leave marks on him. So, I don't snap them to the smallest setting. Basically, the second smallest. (Top row of snaps, I put it on the 3rd out of 4 and on the bottom snaps I put it on the 2nd out of 4) I can't remember on the FuzziBunz what I have the elastic on the leg adjusted to, but I think that it is 4 out of 5.
this sucks. I've used cloth as soon as his umbilical cord fell off, and had this issue, only because he was too small for the diapers, so I put inserts, prefolds, etc, just to bulk it up so he wouldn't leak, or ooze out... now that it is sticky and explosive, I'm not sure what to do otherwise. I have a complete stash... I would rather not buy something new unless completely necessary. Boo.

Well the disposables we've always leaked poo out of no matter what age so that I can't help with. can you take a pic of him laying on his back and froggy his legs up and snap a pic of the legs in the position? If they gape like that then they are too loose. Some diapers leave little red marks when they are fitting well, I don't think the red marks nec. mean that they are too small.
I agree that light red marks aren't necessarily a bad thing. I have light red marks from my bra or the elastic of my underwear sometimes but I don't even notice it. You should be able to bend his legs every which way and have the elastic stay tight to his thighs. I don't think you need to buy anything new, just examine the fit. Also, elastic does wear out on diapers, especially if you dry them in the dryer, so you may need to replace the elastic on some if it's too loose.

ericksonca1 I'll take a picture and show you when I can.
I never put my diapers, inserts, prefolds in the dryer. I use fabric softener on my regular clothes, and I'm too worried that some sort of residue will end up on the diapers, lol. The Apple Cheeks aren't AIO, they come in two sizes, so he has recently 'graduated' to the size 2's. so, I'm hoping that the elastics on them are good... but something I will examine for sure.
So, you're saying that even though you see red marks, or white and red marks, you don't think that's too tight? I mean, he doesn't usually seem to care, but still, I figured if it was leaving that type of mark, that they would be considered too tight.
There are no gaps around his legs or thighs when I put on his diapers... and they don't move around, or anything. I can move his legs around, and it seems to me that the diaper stays in place.
Anyhow, apparently I am the only one who goes through this, haha.

Light red and white marks are ok if they are not bothering baby and go away in a reasonable amount of time out of the diaper.

Tennessee Valley Authority:
Information on Lease-Leaseback and Other Financing Arrangements
GAO-03-784: Published: Jun 30, 2003. Publicly Released: Jul 30, 2003.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6131
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Concern about the implications of the Tennessee Valley Authority's (TVA) debt on its future competitiveness prompted Representative Richard Baker to ask GAO to determine TVA's planned and actual use of nontraditional financing arrangements (which, to date, has consisted primarily of lease-leaseback arrangements), who is at risk under TVA's lease-leaseback arrangements, and whether TVA's accounting for the lease-leaseback arrangements complies with applicable standards and requirements.
TVA has traditionally financed its operations with cash generated from operations, the issuance of bonds and notes, and in the past, appropriations. However, in fiscal year 2000, it began to use alternative forms of financing (primarily lease-leaseback arrangements) and is considering expanding their use. The lease-leaseback arrangements involve the refinancing of 24 combustion turbine power generators that are used during periods of peak demand for power. The lease-leaseback arrangements accounted for about $945 million of the $992 million raised by alternative financing arrangements as of May 31, 2003. After the power generators were constructed, TVA leased them to private investors for 50 years and simultaneously leased them back for 20 years. Under these lease-leaseback arrangements, TVA received cash from the private investors, which was obtained by issuing debt in the public market and through the investors' own equity. TVA is responsible for making lease payments for 20 years, at the end of which it has the option to purchase the private investors' interest in the assets. TVA retains legal title to the assets under the arrangements but relinquishes sufficient interest in the assets so that the equity investors are entitled to certain tax benefits. The equity investors pass on some of these benefits to TVA in the form of more favorable financing rates. As a result, TVA is able to lower costs over the first 20 years of the arrangement. However, to retain use of the assets after the 20-year period, TVA would have to purchase the equity investors' remaining interest in the assets at the assets' fair market value at that time. Depending on the fair market value, TVA is at risk of incurring higher overall costs than under traditional debt financing. In large part, the determination as to who will be the net beneficiary of these arrangements and the implications to the federal treasury will hinge on the future value of the assets. TVA's lease-leaseback arrangements have been accounted for and reported in compliance with applicable standards and requirements for financial reporting, budgetary reporting, and debt cap compliance. TVA's lease-leaseback arrangements are treated as liabilities in its financial statements and classified as debt in the President's Budget. However, they are not counted against the debt cap in the TVA Act. While the lease-leaseback arrangements are not considered debt for purposes of financial reporting and debt cap compliance, they have substantially the same economic impact on TVA's financial condition and future competitiveness as traditional debt financing.
Matter for Congressional Consideration
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: Congress has not amended the TVA Act to clarify whether alternative sources of financing should be counted toward TVA's debt cap.
Matter: Congress may want to consider amending the TVA Act to clarify whether the debt cap should include alternative sources of financing (such as lease-leaseback arrangements) that have the same impact on TVA's financial condition and competitive position as traditional debt financing.

The San Diego Padres have signed first baseman/outfielder Mark Kotsay to a one-year contract extension. Kotsay was eligible for free agency at the end of the season. The 36-year-old went into Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates hitting .275 with one home run and nine RBIs in 55 games. Kotsay has made 15 starts in left field, five in right field and two at first base. San Diego general manager Josh Byrnes says Kotsay provides versatility, a very good late-game at-bat and ''invaluable leadership.'' Kotsay is in his 16th season and has also played with the Florida Marlins, Oakland, Atlanta, Boston, the Chicago White Sox and Milwaukee. He is a .278 lifetime hitter with 125 homers.
