I was able to quickly make this repair with the help of some instructions that I found on this site on how to remove the front panel of my dryer. 4 screws on the front around the door (and removal of the door) and then it was simply a matter of rolling the top portion out to pop it out of some clips and then the front panel opened toward me and I was able to lift it off of the metal fingers that secure it on the bottom. Removing the old baffle was a matter of removing two screws with a nutdriver and installation of the new baffle was a breeze. All in all I was done start to finish in under 10 minutes.

Pia Cayetano urges SC to lift suspension of RH Law
More News from Tetch Torres-Tupas
MANILA, Philippines—Senator Pia Cayetano on Thursday asked the Supreme Court to lift the status quo ante order and allow the implementation of the controversial Republic Act No. 10354 or the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Law.
In a 36-page petition, Cayetano, the main sponsor of the law at the Senate, urged the high court to dismiss several petitions against the RH law for being premature.
"There is no actual case or controversy that exists because the petitions are based on hypothetical dispute and abstract propositions," Cayetano said.
She said the law is consistent with the Constitution and does not violate the freedom of religion as well as the right to life.
Cayetano asked the high court to allow her to join the petitions of three former health secretaries Esperanza Cabral, Jaime Galvez-Tan and Alberto Romualdez Jr.
"The law in its entirety is constitutional. It is consistent with the right to privacy which has been recognized in our jurisdiction. It is so because the law opens up the choices of individuals in the realm of reproductive health," read their petition stated.

CHICAGO, May 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Eisuke Fukuma has treated 58 breast cancer patients with cryoablation over the last 6 years under a research protocol at Kameda Medical Center in Japan. As of today, none of the patients have had a tumor reoccur or distant metastases. By this non-surgical treatment, Dr. Fukuma's patients avoid the risks and potential cosmetic impact of major breast cancer surgery. The fact that none have had recurrences, suggests that, with further study, Cryoablation may offer significant, minimally-invasive breast health options.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130507/CL09547)
Cryoablation is the technique of using extreme cold to destroy tissue. It has been used for years in medical applications like dermatology, kidney, prostate and liver to treat both cancerous and non-cancerous tumors.
Eisuke Fukuma , MD, PhD, is Chairman of Breast Center at Kameda Medical Center in Kamogawa City, Chiba, Japan. Since 2006, his team has been developing cryoablation under image-guidance as a nonsurgical treatment for small breast cancer.
Dr. Fukuma's most recent 20 patients added to the clinical trial were treated using the IceSense3 Cryoablation system from IceCure Medical. While mainstream cancer treatment still requires significant research, the IceSense3 system is widely available in the US for the treatment of benign breast disease. The procedure usually takes about 10-15 minutes; with no pain and virtually no scar (no sutures are required). As with a needle biopsy, many women can return to work or their normal activity quickly.
Dr. Fukuma previewed his next steps in research, which include expanding his research for larger tumors using the IceSense3, to a packed room of physicians and

Investors, "Beware" of Record Companies 301

from the rats-heading-down-the-hawsers dept.
NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "The Motley Fool investment Web site warns investors to beware of 'Sony, BMG, Warner Music Group, Vivendi Universal, and EMI.' In an article entitled 'We're All Thieves to the RIAA,' a Motley Fool columnist, referring to the RIAA's pronouncement in early December in Atlantic v. Howell, that the copies which Mr. Howell had ripped from his CDs to MP3s in a shared files folder on his computer were 'unauthorized,' writer Alyce Lomax said 'a good sign of a dying industry that investors might want to avoid is when it would rather litigate than innovate, signaling a potential destroyer of value.'"

Aloha and welcome to Kona View Estate, a 3 Acre Luxury Vacation Rental Property comfortably nestled on the slopes of Hualalai overlooking Kailua-Kona.
The entire estate has been completely remodeled and updated with top-of-the-line appliances. In October of 2011 we completed our huge solar project: We replaced our roof to allow us to install a (11.25 Kw) Photovoltaic (PV) system as well as solar hot water. We also added a 1,200 sq ft Exercise/Wellness Facility that features a top of the line Life Fitness treadmill and elliptical trainer. There is ample room for stretching. Balance balls, mats and light weights are also included. Wall to wall windows and jalousies keep the facility cool and highlight the incredible view. There is a hot tub in a private location that offers the same stunning views as the rest of the estate. In 2013 we refitted the infinity edge swimming pool with a saltwater style chlorine generator which allows a much more comfortable swimming experience.
In May of 2014 we built a roasting shack to house our state-of-the-art coffee roaster. We are a working coffee farm and we look forward to sharing this wonderful experience with you.
We are located comfortably 'up country' in the midst of the Kona Coffee belt on a working coffee estate. It is usually 5-8 degrees cooler up here with the gentle breeze that comes off the mountain day or night providing an ideal temperature.
The Vista Suite is located on the South side of the villa and has its own separate entrance. All rooms overlook the Pacific Ocean through the lanai, deck and infinity pool. The master bedroom has a King size bed – when you awake you can see 30 miles of the Kona coastline and ocean from your bed. It has an attached private master bath with a large soaking tub as well as a walk-in shower. The second bedroom features two twin-sized beds that can be made into a King-sized bed upon your request. It has its own bath down the hall. The enormous gourmet Kitchen/Living Room/Dining Room has every amenity a chef could want. It also has a couch with a sleeper bed.
Because we live here we can offer services that usually are not available with a vacation rental. Do you need your refrigerator stocked with essentials prior to your arrival? We will gladly offer this concierge service for free. If any problems arise we are here 24/7 to help, make recommendations, give directions etc, but we tend to keep a low profile.
We are looking forward to sharing the powerful energy of this mountain retreat balanced by the outstanding views of the Pacific Ocean. You can often see the curvature of the earth as you awake and gaze over this lovely estate. This is a place of rejuvenation, relaxation, power and growth and we look forward to sharing it with you.
If you need more room please see our other VRBO listing #338995 which is on the same property. There is a link further down the page under 'Links to more Information'.

One owner is in search of the prefect cappuccino. The other is a holistic body-work practitioner and an exercise trainer. We can provide our clients with these services.
The Owner purchased this house in 2009
We fell in love with the house and property the moment we saw it 7 years ago. Yes, the view of Kona and the coastline is the best that we saw in our two years of house hunting. But what struck us was the sense of serenity and calm this property and location afforded us. We immediately felt that we were 'home'. Part of the appeal to us also was the location right in the midst of the Kona Coffee Belt and the fact that the property had been a working coffee estate.
All of the pieces by themselves are incredible: the incredible view from every window, the infinity edge solar heated salt water pool, the hot tub, the holistic fitness center, a completely green solar electric powered house, the two acres in award winning coffee, the sights and sounds of the country, the fresh air. Put them all together and you have a true luxury estate to relax in - when you are not too busy exploring all that the Big Island has to offer!
Our location right in the midst of the Kona Coffee Belt and the fact that the property is a working coffee farm sets us apart from many other vacation rentals. We have just added a roasting shack and now can roast coffee in-house in a custom made artisanal drum coffee roaster. We can offer to our guests our own private label 100% Kona Estate Certified Coffee grown and roasted right here on the property. We supply the finest coffee making equipment in the unit to compliment our award winning coffee.
Thank-you so much for making our stay so memorable. We loved everything about our accommodations ... it truly is a paradise. You are both gracious hosts and we appreciated all the fresh fruit, muffins and coffee you brought to us. We will certainly highly recommend your vacation rental to all of our friends and family.
Would it possible for you to forward on the name of that great imported coffee maker that you used to brew our coffee? We made espresso with your 100% Kona coffee on the week-end and it is the best espresso we've had. We can't wait to come back!
We so enjoyed our stay at Kona View Estate. Our family of four were so thankful for the amenities and the time our hosts made available to us. I strongly commend Kona View Estate to all.
I enjoyed a week stay at Kona View Estate in August 2014 with my wife and two children, ages 12 and 14. The house is lovely, clean, modern, and really had everything we could possibly need during our stay. It is spacious and very relaxing to spend time both inside the house and out by the pool and Lanai. When we weren't traveling around Kona, we enjoyed lounging in the house, where we also made most of our meals in the well stocked and inviting kitchen and outside grill. It was really just a wonderful week on the Big Island!
As for our hosts, Randy and Atsuni were warm and gracious while respectful of our privacy. They answered any questions we had, delighted us with some delicious Cappuccino, and made our stay most enjoyable. Atsuni also does Rolfing and Gyrotonic body work in the downstairs gym. My wife worked with her for a separate but reasonable fee and loved the experience.
In all, we had a wonderful stay at Kona View Estate and would absolutely come back. It is important to note that the house is in Holualoa so beaches are a drive. Kona View is best for visitors who are looking for a relaxing stay that is close by but away from the busier parts of the island. Coming from the bustle of a big city, we were very happy getting away and enjoyed the relative quiet and the stunning views from our Lanai. We would head over to the Beaches, Volcano, or into downtown Kona but really cherished the serene beauty of this home. Our family certainly enjoyed a restorative and lovely week there. Thanks so much Randy & Atsuni, and hope to see you again!
We, a family with kids of 10, 13 and 14 years, spent a week around Christmas 2013 at this wonderful place.
The house is perfect with good beds and bedrooms, a nice and living room / kitchen with direct access to the large terrace with swimming pool. The state of the house is perfect and everything works perfectly with a well equipped kitchen and all amenities at hand.
Location is really great. You need a car, but then it is close to everything and at the same time quiet and with the best possible view over the coastline and the ocean.
The owners, Randy and Atsumi, are extremely pleasant and helpful - our only mistake was to book only one week with them!
We arrived at night to Kona View and just the drive there was awesome! Once we arrived we were greeted by Randy and Atsumi. The house was lit up and we could see the infiniti pool and some of the beautiful vegetation in front of the house. The house was clean and bright and modern. Our first morning at Kona View Estates was quiet and we had fresh Kona ground coffee delivered hot to us by Randy. The next 12 days were full of rest and relaxation and its finest! We will definitely be returning next year if we can!!!
My wife and I recently stayed at Kona View estates for two wonderful weeks.
Just 15 minutes from the airport but in a world far removed for what passes for hustle and bustle on the Big Island, this property is exceptional. We've been visiting Hawaii for over
30 years and this vacation ranks as one of the very best we've experienced.
Incredible views, infinity pool, large well stocked kitchen and complete privacy.
Very responsive owners. Wonderful relaxing time.
We spent 2 weeks at Kona View Estate and truly enjoyed the experience. The owners were so accommodating and made us feel very welcome. We spent the day exploring the island and then came home to the best views in Kona!
The kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals at home, which I appreciated since I like to relax in the evening. It's also near the town of Holualoa, which has a great restaurant for both lunch and dinner. Great vacation.
Our property has two acres in coffee and we are in the heart of the Kona Coffee Belt just 2 1/2 miles from the artistic community of Holualoa.

The Crossover Sign Overestimates Acetabular Retroversion

The crossover sign is a radiographic finding associated with cranial acetabular retroversion and has been associated with pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in patients with hip pain. Variable morphology, location, and size of the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) may contribute to the crossover sign even in the absence of retroversion. Thus, the sign may overestimate the incidence of acetabular retroversion.
We asked: Can the crossover sign appear on standardized, well-positioned AP pelvis radiographs despite the absence of acetabular retroversion? And what is the contribution of variable size and morphology of the AIIS to a crossover sign?
We evaluated radiographs of 53 patients with symptomatic FAI in the absence of substantial chondral degenerative changes (< Tönnis Grade 2). Forty-one radiographs met the appropriate criteria of neutral tilt and obliquity. Three independent reviewers determined presence and location of the crossover sign. Acetabular version was defined using high-resolution three-dimensional CT. CT reconstructions were used to define three AIIS types addressing AIIS morphology.
Nineteen of 38 radiographs with a crossover sign on AP radiographs had focal or global acetabular retroversion on three-dimensional CT (positive and negative predictive values = 50%). In contrast, the AIIS extended to or below the level of the anterior superior acetabular rim and was partially or completely responsible for the appearance of a radiographic crossover sign in all 19 hips with an anteverted acetabulum. High interobserver reliability (kappa > 0.8) was found for AIIS types.
A crossover sign is frequently present on well-positioned AP pelvis radiographs in the absence of acetabular retroversion. Variable AIIS morphology may explain the appearance of this sign in the presence or absence of acetabular retroversion.

Graham Rahal doesn't have a full-season ride yet. At least he's got one for the biggest race of the year. And the best part? It's for his dad.
Rahal will drive for Bobby's Rahal Letterman Racing at the Indianapolis 500, teaming one of IndyCar's up-and-coming drivers with his father who won at the Brickyard as a driver and an owner.
"It's always flattering when one of your children wants to follow in your footsteps," Bobby Rahal said in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "It's even moreso when they want to be a part of what you've built over the years. We at Rahal Lettermen are thrilled that Graham will represent us at Indy in two weeks."
The 21-year-old Rahal will drive at the May 30 race in Rahal Letterman's No. 30 Dallara/Honda for a yet-to-be-determined sponsor.
Considered one of the IndyCar Series' best young drivers since becoming its youngest winner at 19 in 2008, Rahal went into this season without a full ride after two years with Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing.
Rahal drove in three of the first four races for Sarah Fisher Racing, his best finish a ninth at St. Petersburg. Fisher moved behind the wheel at Kansas Speedway last weekend, leaving Rahal with an uncertain future, so teaming with his father for Indy was like birthday and Christmas presents all coming at once.
"I am extremely excited to be racing with my father and with this team," said Rahal, who failed to finish in two previous Indy 500s. "I have known a lot of the guys on this team since I was very young and to go after the dream of winning Indianapolis with them means a lot to me and my family. I know we can put together a quality effort and we expect to be competitive."
A three-time CART champion, Bobby Rahal won Indy in 1986 as a driver and as an owner with Buddy Rice in 2004. Despite his son's promising future as a driver, Bobby had been reluctant to bring him aboard at Rahal Letterman, wanting Graham to distinguish himself on his own.
Graham has done that and now, with his son needing ride, Bobby believed it to be the right time for a father/son endeavor at their favorite track.
"To have watched his career grow from the first day in karts and now to be there side-by-side with him as he tries to win Indy for himself and for our team is a dream come true for me," Bobby Rahal said.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Le Bellechasse
8 Rue Bellechasse, Paris, France
Neighborhood: 7th Arr. (Tour Eiffel/Musée D'Orsay)
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
It's often a bit of a gamble commissioning boutique-hotel interiors from fashion designers, but one thing you can almost always be sure of is that you won't end up looking at the same tired minimalism you've already seen in a thousand other hotels. Extravagant materials, bold colors, quirky details and statements aplenty are pretty much the order of the day, and once in a while it all coheres into something remarkable and unique — certainly that's the case with Christian Lacroix's redesign for Paris's Hotel Bellechasse.
Especially when it comes to Paris hotels we often find ourselves wondering why such a stylish city can't let its hair down a bit. This place, however, will inspire no such complaints; the Bellechasse borders on the flamboyant, as a glance at the photos will tell you. It's certainly not for traditionalists, or tourists in search of the typically Parisian; simply put it's for people who don't mind a room with extremely bold printed wallpaper, vertical arrow slits for windows, and a bathtub in plain view in the corner of the bedroom, where attempting to use the shower attachment would result in an aquatic disaster of near-Biblical proportions.
That sound you hear is the collective sound of virtually all our business-travel customers (and a sizable proportion of our shower-happy Americans) clicking their browser's "back" button. Those of you who are still with us, however, will find a hotel that's delightfully full of character, full of surprises, nearly as comfortable as can be (while stopping just short of out-and-out luxury) and with a fine location to boot, just a block from the Musée d'Orsay.

What I liked:
Decoration and style are beautiful.
What the hotel could do better:
1- The rooms were not practical
2- Bathroom was very poor: no table to put your toiletries! No shower stand! Shower head in metal means the handle burns your hand.
3- Had to wait 45minutes before I got my breakfast...

What the hotel could do better:
Perhaps a bit of a revamp of the furnishings/paint. Some peeling wall coverings/holes in the tapestries were less than ideal.

Los Angeles festival offers Stradivarius violins
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Xiang "Angelo" Yu is holding the nearly 350-year-old Stradivarius violin casually by the neck and explaining why he'd like a little more time to make its acquaintance.
"It's always an adventure," says Yu, 25, who has played six or seven Stradivarius violins over his career. "I only have one or two days to get used to it. Feels like a wild horse — you never know what's coming."
The violins of Antonio Stradivari, arguably the most famous instruments ever created, have an almost mystical reputation for beauty and heavenly tone. This week eight of them have been brought together in the City of Angels.
"Strad Fest LA" is a four-day series of performances culminating with a Saturday charity concert.
"I think we're really giving a gift to Los Angeles," said Margaret Batjer, concertmaster of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra. "To gather this many instruments under one roof, to be played night after night, is an extraordinary event."
Yu called it a once-in-a-lifetime experience. For the festival, he's playing the 1666 "Serdet," the earliest known existing Stradivarius violin.
"Somehow I feel like every violin has its individual soul, that when I press down my fingers I could feel the soul of that violin itself," he said before a Thursday rehearsal.
"It's one of the most extraordinary and expensive and beautiful instruments," said violinist Chee-Yun, holding a 1714 "Leonora Jackson."
"The minute I started playing a note on it, I felt like I was floating in the air. It's like a dream come true. It's beautiful."
Philippe Quint held the 1708 "Ruby."
"Growing up, my dream was always to be able to time travel," he said. "And a couple of years ago I realized that I've had this time machine in my hands my whole life. These violins have traveled for centuries and have been in the hands of some of the most incredible violinists."
"When I play on this instrument, the sound has so much depth and mystery and history," he said.
Stradivari created violins, guitars, cellos and other stringed instruments in his workshop in Cremona, Italy. About 650 survive today and they can sell for millions of dollars.
The violins are revered as extraordinary (despite some experiments where listeners have been unable to distinguish them from less-renowned instruments). Researchers have offered innumerable suggestions to explain the rich, resonant tones of the best Stradivarius violins.
"There was a certain magic that happened in Cremona, in northern Italy at that time," Batjer said. "And people argue all the time: Was it the weather, was it the climate, was it the conditions, was it the wood, was it the craftsmanship? It's probably a combination of all of those things."
Throughout his lifetime, Stradivari kept experimenting, changing and refining his instruments, and each has a different voice.
Playing one is "like getting into a relationship. You respond to each other" in a process that can take months or even years, said Cho-Liang Lin, holding the 1715 "Titian."

NEW YORK Aug 16 JPMorgan Chase & Co is planning to sell its landmark office tower in lower Manhattan, a property that could fetch $1 billion or more, Crain's New York Business reported on Friday.
The 60-story building, 1 Chase Manhattan Plaza, was built in the 1960s when David Rockefeller was the bank's chief executive.
Crain's reported that a JPMorgan spokeswoman confirmed the tower is being marketed to potential buyers. The buyers were not named in the report. CBRE Group Inc brokers will handle the sale of the tower, which has 2.2 million square feet of office space, Crain's said.
A spokesman for JPMorgan could not immediately be reached for comment.
JPMorgan tried to sell the property in 2009 but an economic recession hurt real estate prices and the bank backed away from the effort. Now that real estate has rebounded, sellers have a better opportunity to market property, Crain's said.

On Feb. 16, two days before she turned 77, the incomparable Yoko Ono, who by now has released nearly as many albums as her venerated late husband, served as both performer and honoree at a guest-heavy fête at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.
I've pointed this next part out before, but it bears repeating: Bette Midler sang, as did Paul Simon and his son Harper. Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth showed up. Most impressively, members of the original Plastic Ono Band -- including Eric Clapton, renowned drummer Jim Keltner and bassist Klaus Voorman, known for designing the cover of the Beatles' Revolver – were reunited for the occasion.
The event, dubbed We Are Plastic Ono Band and arranged under the musical direction of Ono and John Lennon's son, Sean Lennon, was a hot-ticket smash success in NYC, and it's about to have an L.A. encore, Friday and Saturday at the Orpheum Theatre, the opulent downtown venue that most people (apart from indie-music concert-goers) primarily know these days as the home of Hollywood Week on American Idol.
The roll call for this weekend's tributes has changed, but the caliber of artists who will salute four decades of music and performance art still speaks to Ono's enduringly daring and idiosyncratic style. Iggy Pop, Mike Watt of the Minutemen and Nels Cline of Wilco take part Friday, while Lady Gaga -- whose calculated outrageousness owes at least as much to Ono as it does Madonna -- will appear Saturday night, along with Moore and Gordon.
Appearing at both performances will be an array like you never see on the same stage: Perry Farrell, the RZA of Wu-Tang Clan, actors Carrie Fisher and Vincent Gallo, Pitchfork darling tUnE-yArDs, electronic music pioneer Haruomi Hosono of the Yellow Magic Orchestra, and the current, Japanese-rich incarnation of the Plastic Ono Band, led by Sean but also featuring avant-gardist Cornelius and Yuka Honda of the group Cibo Matto.
"Isn't it great?" Ono enthused during a phone chat two weeks ago. "It's the first time I'm going to do it in L.A."
"Do it" doesn't just apply to these unique shows. She means ever.
"You've never played L.A. before?" I asked, surprised.
Surely back in the early '70s, when she and John were at their most politically active and made appearances at rallies and benefit concerts, there must have been one gig somewhere in Southern California.
Ono is adamant: "Nooooooo! And I didn't even think about that. It's, like, I never thought about that John is going to be 70 this year. When people say, 'Oh, he's going to be 70' -- I think, 'Oh dear, is that what it is?' There are many things that I don't really have in my consciousness."
Naturally, though she's participating in these testaments to her career -- as opposed to watching from the balcony as if at the Kennedy Center Honors -- Ono never would have thought to stage something like this for herself. The Orpheum, she loves: "Such a beautiful theater. … I like that kinda thing. … I go for classic, historical places." But to gather high-profile friends and admirers to re-create her songs live, well: "Who would think of doing a show that way?"
It's much too conventional, "and I'm not the most conservative person. I felt sort of like … well, maybe embarrassed, I guess, that all these big musicians and composers and singer-songwriters (wanted) to sing my songs. You know, I do shows because I like to just do my own thing. So when they all came to me and said, 'What about this?' … I mean, Paul Simon is going to sing my song? You're going to bring back Eric Clapton? I couldn't believe it. I said, 'I don't think they would want to do it. Why should they do it?' Because I'm that person, I don't see it objectively."
She may not have dreamt it for herself, yet Ono says she's nonetheless touched by the show of support, and has found joy in the process of spotlighting her work for these shows. There are, after all, any number of directions this material could go, as hers is a wildly varied catalog that ranges from difficult, often ignored but punk- and alt-influencing '70s efforts like Fly, Approximately Infinite Universe and Feeling the Space (her second, third and fourth solo records) to the increasingly acclaimed avant-pop and dance music she has made since John's death in 1980 and the release of their swan song together, Double Fantasy. (That unique classic, by the way, returns Oct. 5 as part of a Lennon reissue campaign in a "stripped down" version that wipes away the polished production of the era.)>

The house has a separate living and dining room and its original floorboards. The bedrooms are all of good proportions and the existing bathroom has a crab-claw bath. The terrace has its own off-street parking and the city buses run right past the house. The agent says it could rent for $700 a week.

My Rating
I was unable to go but Viator was accommodating in offering a resolution. My sister went and said it was great. The tour director, Jerry, was very informative and even though they did not go to Scotty's Castle, he took them to several additional scenic sights to make up for it (although if the itinerary is different than what is listed, you should mention that disclaimer before people sign up instead of once the person is on the bus and has to ask "hey, what about Scotty's castle" - the change was because the road was under construction for several months).The local guide service Viator uses and Viator are reputable companies. It is also easy to contact Viator since they are open 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Decorative covers for bicycle helmets that were shaped like human brains or shot through with faux bent nails; Fear Factor candy lollipops meant to look like pig hearts; toilet-bowl attachments with names like Gatago (pronounced got-to-go) Giraffe and Ca Ca Cow to transform commodes into half-cartoon character/half-toilets and make the toilet-training process less intimidating (why does Ca Ca Cow look stoned on the can?); a machine to create your own hard candy (choose the variety of powdered flavors, then watch the dispensing system compress the powder into supposedly edible tablet form); and the sinister Penelope Peapod, a purse that converts into a bassinet with (what we are convinced) is Rosemary's baby inside. Unlike the name suggests, Penelope Peapod didn't emerge from a vegetable: Bassinets and baby clothes come in matching prints unabashedly named after well-to-do cities and Manhattan neighborhoods, such as the blue-checked Nantucket and the wowee-zowee, hypercolorful Soho that looks like you swaddled your kid in Pucci and laid him in one ugly cradle.
Others we only heard about but didn't have time to see: Younique Gemz, multiracial dolls with authentic facial characteristics (a product whose time has come, for those of us bothered that Asian, Hispanic, and Black Barbies just resembled white Barbie with a really really good tan); Holy Folks, plush-doll versions of Moses, Jesus, Mary, and Noah (the freaky tagline: "Always Faithful, Always Smiling"); SuperMom, a maternal action figure juggling eight accessories at once, including work high-heels and sensible Mom shoes; Cattle-pult, a contraption to hurl one-inch-long plastic heifers into the air ("beneath their docile cud-chewing exterior, cows are fine-tuned flying machines," says the exhibition description ); and a board game for venting corporate-ladder frustrations with characters like Becky Backstabber, Bernie Brown Nose, and No Follow Through Drew.
Inspired creations all.

Crossing The Border In Big Bend
Big Bend National Park offers an incredible mix of experiences, from the rugged mountainous part of the park down to the Boquillas Crossing Port of Entry on the Rio Grande River, which offers much different and a unique experience.
Planning A Family Trip To Denali National Park? This Guidebook Is For You!
While national parks often seem extremely user-friendly, having a guide to help figure out what to do and where to go is always helpful. And if you have a young family, a new guide can help you get more out of a trip to Denali National Park and Preserve in Alaska.
Get Into The Party Mode At Estes Park: Celebrating 100 Years Of Rocky Mountain National Park
Rising before the sun, I was out the cabin door not long after its rays started cascading on the Continental Divide. The early departure was necessary to catch the gentle morning light warming the landscape of Rocky Mountain National Park. I also wanted to snag a parking spot at Bear Lake and head up the trail.
Here's A Hiking Guide For Your Next Visit To Zion National Park
You're planning a trip to Zion National Park in Utah, you plan to do some hiking, and you're wondering which trails to search out.
A National Park Classic: Hiking Zion's Narrows
We splash downstream in The Narrows of the North Fork of the Virgin River, deep in the backcountry of Utah's Zion National Park, mostly craning our necks up like turkeys hypnotized by falling rain. But our fascination is not with rain, but red walls on both sides that rise hundreds of feet overhead. The sun does not find us in this deep canyon, where the air temperature approximates the inside of a refrigerator, and the ankle- to calf-deep water feels about the same.
Essential Spring Guide '15: On The Road To Castles Of Stone And Wood Turned To Rock
Arizona is rich in history -- from the 1800s all the way back to the Late Triassic Period. Stitch together this trip that winds out of Flagstaff to Montezuma Castle National Monument, to Petrified Forest National Park, and ends at Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site. You'll experience fascinating chapters of geologic and cultural history.
Three Days At Fredericksburg And Spotsylvania National Military Park
Take a walk to the Bloody Angle at Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park, stand before the Kirkland Memorial just below the Sunken Road, or gaze at the bed where General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson died and the gravity of this nation's greatest internal conflict washes over you.
A Spring Cross-Country Ski To Avalanche Lake In Glacier National Park
In summer, Avalanche Lake is a short, barely 2 mile hike into the backcountry of Glacier National Park. In winter, it entails a 6-mile cross-country ski, and then a 2-mile hike.
National Park Turns: The Slides Of March
All signs point to spring: warm winds, green budding trees, flowering bulbs, and... skiing? Sure enough! Spring's a great time to spend some time sliding around on those broad bowls, snow-covered roads, and long ridges. The weather is mild, the skies are blue, and the days are long: it's just a lot more comfortable spring-skiing than going on a mid-winter slog in a blizzard through deep snow.
Essential Paddling Guide '15: Kayaking And Camping In The Ross Lake National Recreation Area
We started paddling from the south end of Ross Lake just as a breeze began to riffle the blue-green water. By the time we were ready to stop for lunch an hour later, the north wind straight out of Canada had whipped the calm waters into a froth of whitecaps. So instead of picnicking on the beach, we gobbled down some energy bars and fought our way north through the chop.

Climb The Grand Teton...Virtually!
The view from atop the Grand Teton is incredible. To the west, the Jedediah Smith Wilderness stands. To the north, Yellowstone National Park. To the east, Jackson Hole, with the moraine that is Timbered Island so very well defined. If you haven't climbed to the top of the 13,770-foot peak in Grand Teton National Park yet, or can't, you can still enjoy the view.

The 1950s and 1960s were a period of strife coupled with significant progress in America's struggle with civil rights. Marches, sit-ins, and violence were accompanied by legislation, desegregation, and, in some instances, accommodation. Birmingham, Montgomery, Selma, Greensboro, and Washington, D.C. are remembered as some of the principal battlegrounds in the conflict and struggle for equal rights.

Exploring The Parks: Alibates Flint Quarries National Monument
Archaeologists for years have puzzled over the scale and range of prehistoric activities that created the remarkable flint quarry sites at Alibates, Texas. No doubt some Native Americans, in search of flint, merely picked up exposed chunks or cobbles lying on the ground. Others chiseled boulders directly from the bedrock.
A Visit To Missouri National Recreational River
The Missouri River, often referred to as the "Big Muddy" due to the large amount of sediment it carries, once served as the country's major thoroughfare to the West, first by trappers and traders, and later by Lewis & Clark as the Corps of Discovery searched for a water route to a western ocean. Today it offers an incredible waterscape for paddlers in search of beauty.

National Park Basics For RVing Newbies
When planning a national park camping trip, many RVing newbies are surprised to learn that a stay in these public campgrounds is quite different from the usual RV park experience. From 1950s-era campgrounds with short parking aprons that are unsuitable for modern RVs, to strict generator use hours, the learning curve can be steep for inexperienced RVers. If you're a new RV traveler and considering a national park campground visit, here are five simple ways to have a great RV camping experience.
A Return To Apostle Islands National Lakeshore
The two of us recently returned to Apostle Islands National Lakeshore for the first time in many years. It was a good time to visit northern Wisconsin, in light of the oppressive early September temperatures and humidity of south Georgia.

Congaree National Park's Healing Waters
Exploring miles of boardwalk and a dense canopy of old growth hardwood trees might be what many visitors remember about Congaree National Park. But about ten times a year the waters from the Conagree and Wateree Rivers sweep through the floodplain wilderness, opening up a whole new surreal world for paddlers and an opportunity to discover the forest from a unique perspective. Kayak through the woods and experience this special place through the eyes of local veterans Eric Guzman and Edye Joyner.
Five Incredible National Park Excursions By Boat
Most of us arrive in a national park by car, truck, or perhaps train, and then spend our visit either walking or driving around, stopping at scenic overlooks, exploring history, or searching for wildlife. One mode of transportation not to be overlooked, though, is watercraft. Here are five incredible national park excursions by boat that are worthy of your consideration.

Report: Jarome Iginla would waive no-trade clause for Bruins
|03.24.13 at 1:35 pm ET
According to Renaud Lavoie of RDS, Flames forward Jarome Iginla has listed the Bruins as one of four teams for which he would waive his no-trade clause.
The RDS report states (en Francais) that Iginla listed the Bruins, Blackhawks, Kings and Penguins as the teams to which he would accept a trade. Iginla, 35, is in the final year of a three-year, $21 million deal and will be an unrestricted free agent following the season. Through 24 games this season, the Calgary captain has seven goals and 12 assists for 19 points.
The trade deadline, which is normally at the end of February, is April 3 this season due to the adjusted schedule caused by the lockout-shortened season.

Iacopo has an imaginary friend, Guggy, who shows up every once in a while. He's around this week, I think because Iacopo watched a scary movie with DH, and because he is afraid of the Befana--the witch who comes to Italian children's houses on the 6th to leave either candy or coal.
Anyway, last night he told me that Guggy doesn't speak any Italian at all, because he is from 'Genova' (would love to hear what a Genovese would say about that!), and speaks only English and Genovese.
He's never been to Genoa, but we've been talking a lot about the different languages spoken in different countries, so I guess he's thinking about that.
Just thought I'd share...I thought it was cute!

|ESPN.com: Sprint Cup
|[Print without images]
(AP Photo/Rainier Ehrhardt)
Mine That Bird was a 51-to-1 long shot to win the Kentucky Derby yet completed one of the biggest upsets in the 135-year history of the prestigious event.
If Tony Stewart wins the 2009 Sprint Cup championship, 51-to-1 wouldn't come close to covering it.
After 10 races this season, Stewart stands third in the standings, only 39 points behind leader Jeff Gordon.
No one, including Stewart, would have predicted that level of success as a new owner/driver on the team that never was competitive before he took over.
Stewart is a realistic contender for the championship, something most NASCAR observers thought was impossible in this era for a driver doubling as a team owner. Stretching the reach even more, as a new team owner.
The last time an owner/driver won a Cup race was almost 11 years ago. Ricky Rudd was the last man to do it on Sept. 27, 1998, at Martinsville.
Stewart has yet to accomplish that feat, but it's only a matter of time. His second-place finish Saturday night at Richmond shows a victory probably will come soon.
More importantly, a championship is a reachable goal, something Stewart couldn't imagine when his new role began this season.
But Stewart can see it now. Heck, he can almost taste it. That's why winning isn't his top priority.
"I told somebody, I would rather have five second-place finishes in a row than a win, a 32nd, an 18th, a 43rd and a seventh," Stewart said after the Richmond race.
"For us as an organization, it's that momentum. I can't wait to get to the shop Monday and see the smiles on the guys' faces. That's the payoff for me. That's the stuff that will carry us."
Stewart has seven top-10s and four top-5 finishes this season in the No. 14 Chevy for Stewart-Haas Racing. Gordon (seven top-10s and five top-5s) is the only driver with more.
What does it tell us?
One, that Stewart is an extraordinarily talented race car driver, proving he can compete up front for an organization that used to be an also-ran at best.
Two, he knows how to build a winning organization by putting quality people in key positions -- Darian Grubb as his crew chief, Bobby Hutchens as director of competition and Ryan Newman as SHR's other driver.
Newman got off to a slow start this season, but he has four top-10s in the past six races, including back-to-back top-5s. He finished fourth at Richmond in the No. 39 Chevy.
"This was a great effort by everyone on our team,'' Newman said after the Richmond race. "If we keep doing what we're doing, we'll get what we want."
What they want is a spot in the Chase, something Newman didn't have his past three seasons at Penske before agreeing to join Stewart in his new venture. Newman ranks 10th in the standings after 10 races this year.
"Having Ryan as a teammate is a huge asset," Stewart said Saturday. "We've worked well together from day one. His depth of knowledge has been a huge asset to me. It's been a huge asset to the whole organization."
Stewart's success is good for NASCAR for two reasons. It proves an owner/driver can make it work at the Cup level. It also shows a second-tier organization can compete with the superteams in Cup if someone like Stewart has the wherewithal to put the right people in place.
"We've got the equipment," Stewart said. "When we do our jobs, the results have shown. I think success has come much quicker than any of us anticipated it would. I'm proud of the whole organization."
The all-Kyle Busch weekend at Richmond started Friday night with his third Nationwide victory of the season, continuing the Cup drivers' domination of the series.
A full-time Cup racer has won all nine Nationwide events this season. The Friday event was an easy warm-up for Busch, who won the Cup race Saturday night on his 24th birthday.
Busch and Carl Edwards are battling for the top spot, but six Nationwide regulars rank in the top 10 of the season standings, led by Jason Leffler in the No. 3 slot.
One driver who has shown significant improvement this season is Steve Wallace. He finished 11th at Richmond and has three top-10s in nine races.
A rookie to watch is Scott Lagasse Jr., who has three top-10s and ranks ninth in the standings. Lagasse has finished in the top 17 in seven of nine starts, a respectable achievement while racing against so many Cup regulars.
The trucks had the week off and will resume racing May 15 at Lowe's Motor Speedway.

I've never owned a CD, but I did have a catboat--another "cult" boat that held its value. The reason cult boats hold their value is because they offer something to their owners of value over a very long time. You might pay more than another boat of the same vintage, but you will likely get most of your money back when you sell it many years later. The CDs, as I understand them, are solid boats that retain their value better than many of their contemporaries.
Bottom line: CDs aren't overpriced if folks are wiling to pay the price. No one is forcing you to buy one.
Hey nice rant!
Do you know that I own and sail a CD330? As for supply and demand, I think the short supply of the CD25 (along with its inclusion in JV's book) may have something to do with its excessive price. In any event, I simply suggested that CD27's and 28's were significantly better values than the 25D. Not sure you said anything to the contrary, but since you quoted me . . ..
