I've realized that I enjoy talking about & listening to stories from Skyrim every bit as much as I enjoy actually playing Skyrim. The breadth of unique experiences everyone has stumbled into is just staggering to me.
To that end, I'm going to start a semi-regular podcast, and source the community for your stories of valor, deceit, bravery, cowardice, humor, buffoonery... whatever you've got. My goal is to record interviews via Skype, and produce segments NPR/This American Life style -- And to similarly have an over-arching theme for each episode: Hold/city-specific stories; dragon stories; mammoth stories; Lydia stories; etc. So anyone with a solid connection and decent mic can be on the show. If you're interested please submit some brief write-ups to firstname.lastname@example.com, and include your availability to record an interview. I'll begin contacting people back over the next few days. Also follow @skyrimstories on Twitter for updates.
Thanks, gang.

Need the scores from any match played in today's tournaments?
The Dutch pair dominated the 2008 Olympic doubles champions in the first two sets before Federer and Wawrinka rallied to take the third on the outdoor clay court.
Haase and Rojer broke Federer's serve in the seventh game of the fourth set and broke Wawrinka to seal the match.
Federer plays Haase in reverse singles on Sunday and Wawrinka takes on
Thiemo de Bakker
in the final match.
Czechs take 2-1 lead on Argentina
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina -- Argentina lost the Davis Cup doubles on Saturday -- falling behind 2-1 against the Czech Republic in the semifinals -- and also lost
Juan Martin del Potro
for Sunday's deciding singles.
Del Potro defeated
Radek Stepanek
on Friday in singles playing with an inflamed left wrist on his non-racket hand. He said afterward he was in pain and playing with only half of his arsenal of shots.
Del Potro's doctor warned him that his wrist was at risk if he played in the Davis Cup. Wrist problems ruled out the 2009 U.S. Open champion for most of the 2010 season.
On Saturday the risk turned to fact.
Argentina captain Martin Jaite said del Potro was being replaced by doubles player
Carlos Berlocq
, who will face
Tomas Berdych
in Sunday's first reverse singles.
"Juan Martin finished yesterday with more problems than previously thought," team doctor Miguel Khoury said. "We don't think he's in condition to play on Sunday."
Khoury said del Porto's wrist was being immobilized for 10 days.
"We think this is the best decision for his problem and the team."
Jaite learned late Friday that del Potro would not play, but said he didn't tell the team until after Saturday's doubles.
"It was not what the team expected, but we're OK and we have two more matches," Jaite said. "Obviously it's a blow to the team, but we'll continue to fight for it."
Berdych and Stepanek defeated
Eduardo Schwank
and Berlocq 6-3, 6-4, 6-3, and put their team on the brink of returning to the final for the first time since 2009.
Berdych will be favored to secure victory against Berlocq, who was making his cup debut. Stepanek and
Juan Monaco
were scheduled to meet in the last match on the outdoor clay court.
Berdych dismissed any worries about playing three days in a row.
"My physical aspect is fine," he said. "I won two tough matches, but I'm here to be ready for three days. Winning two matches gives me a lot of confidence."
Argentina is trying to reach its fifth final. It has lost a record four finals, including last year against Spain. The Czechs won as Czechoslovakia in 1980. They lost in the 2009 finals to Spain.

Excerpt from "Litigation"
Federal District Court Grants Preliminary Injunction Postponing Piece of CARD Act Regulation. On September 23, the U.S. District Court for South Dakota granted a preliminary injunction postponing and enjoining the October 1, 2011 effective date of the Federal Reserve Board's (FRB) amendment to Regulation Z, which would expand a limitation on credit card fees charged in the first year to include fees imposed on the customer prior to the account opening. First Premier Bank v. U.S., No. 11-4103-KES (D.S.D. Sep. 23, 2011). The case arises from First Premier Bank's practice of charging certain customers an upfront fee, not to be paid from the credit being granted, prior to opening a credit card account at the First Premier Bank (the "Bank"). Under the Credit CARD Act, and in accordance with the FRB's initial regulation implementing the Act, lenders are prohibited from charging customers fees during the first year after account opening in excess of 25 percent of the credit limit in effect when the account is opened. The FRB subsequently proposed to amend that limitation to include fees charged prior to account opening. Agreeing with the Bank, the Court found that the language of the Credit CARD Act unambiguously states that the limitation applies to fees charged during the first year of the account, and not to fees assessed prior to account opening. The Court also found that Congressional intent was sufficiently clear that the FRB could not claim to be filling statutory gaps.

Heavy bikes in the dirt? Injury waiting to happen?
I have a KLR650 and a Honda CRF250L. My son rides a WR250r and I recently sold a TW200. Below 40mph the TW200 may be one of the most fun bikes out there. It is actually a lot of fun seeing how slow you can climb hills (very tractor like) and taking technical trails.
I too wonder about the danger of big bikes in the dirt. It just seems that the heavier the bike the more it is going to hurt when you go down. Also, a lighter bike can often be righted with a strategically placed foot but once a big bike starts to go the rider better get out of the way.
My big question is do we see all these big bike-dirt-minor getoff injuries because big (ie heavy) bikes injure more or is it just a reflection that so many more folks are out there doing serious dirt/gravel miles on heavier bikes rather then on 250's?

"We sent our lovable Goldendoodle Pepper for the two week Board and Train with Dave. I can't say enough positive things about the experience. Dave's communication is above and beyond excellent, kept us in the loop via text and phone, and the postings of her progress on FB we great. Most importantly, like many we feared loosing something of the happy crazy dog we loved so much through the training. It took very little time at all for the family to realize that we got back our same family member, just improved with some new grounding, rules, and behavior checks that have made her even more enjoyable to spend time with!"

The quality of training and information Dave shared with us will forever resonate in our lives.

Kourtney Kardashian needs your help.
As her sister Khloé has done as well, the Kourtney & Kim Take Miami star is calling on fans for support in the wake of one family member's ailing health.
"My cousin Cici recently found out that after 17 years of battling cancer, her body has stopped responding to the chemotherapy and she desperately needs a bone marrow stem cell transplant," Kardashian posted last night on her official blog.
Kourtney and Scott take kids on first trip to the snow
"Because Cici is of Armenian descent she needs to receive bone marrow from an Armenian donor, which means the pool of options is a lot smaller and she's having a difficult time finding a match," the 33-year-old mother of two continued. "We are asking that any of you who are Armenian, have Armenian friends or extended family members consider signing up as a donor at the bone marrow registry, in hopes that we can find a match for Cici and give our beloved cousin many more years to live."
Kardashian explains that the procedure to donate marrow is quick and nonsurgical and is similar to giving blood.
"Because Cici is 100% Armenian the need for an Armenian donor is the most important," Kourt wrote. "She has aligned herself with the Armenian bone marrow donor bank and you can get more info here: www.abmdr.am."
Way to help a cousin out!

The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT), in a recent ruling, has held that the finding of the Department Promotion Committee (DPC) in 2012 that the 1986-batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer, Sanjay Pandey, was unfit for promotion is 'not correct'.
Pandey had submitted before the tribunal that the move by the DPC was done with the malafide intention of promoting junior officers.
He will now move CAT seeking review of his case for promotion as additional director general of police (ADGP). Pandey, an upright IPS officer, had played a crucial role in exposing the multi-crore shoe scam, which resulted in the arrest of several high profile businessmen.
CAT member Arvind J. Rohee, in an order stated: "It is obvious that to become inspector general of police (IGP) from the post of deputy inspector general of police (DIG) at least four years of qualifying service as DIG is required in 18 years of the total service. However, since Sanjay Pandey was posted as DIG on December 15, 2011, he is yet to complete four years of actual service as DIG."
According to the ruling, Pandey has further contended that had he been promoted as DIG immediately or within a reasonable time after April 9, 2007 when the previous DPC approved his name, he would have completed the qualifying service of four years for being considered for the post of IG in 2011.
"However, as stated earlier, the annual confidential reports (ACR) for 2007-2011 are not available since he was on compulsory wait. It seems the ACR for the brief period from September 25, 2006 till he worked as joint commissioner, Vigilance, FDA in Mumbai is also not available. This being so, the view taken by the review DPC in considering Pandey unfit for promotion to the post of IG cannot be said to be correct," the ruling states.
"It is our considered views that having kept Pandey on compulsory wait for more than four and-a-half years from May 18, 2007 to December 15, 2011, for which he was not at fault, the government cannot hold the ground of non-availability of ACR against Pandey in the matter of his promotion. However, the question of Pandey's promotion to the post of additional director general of police rank will arise only after his promotion to the post of IGP. Therefore at this state we are not inclined to consider his prayer for the post of ADGP," the ruling states, asking the government to hold a fresh review DPC for considering promotion of Pandey to the post of IGP.
"It is now very clear that the government wanted to promote officers junior to me and hence the DPC found me unfit for promotion," said Pandey, who is presently working with the State Human Rights Commission.
"By the time CAT order came out, I had become an IGP. I am going to file a petition requesting the bench to review only the part of the judgement which said it could not grant me relief for promotion to the post of ADGP. IPS officers junior to me from the 1987 and 88 batches have already become ADGP," he said.
Who is Sanjay Pande
Sanjay Pandey, an IPS officer of 1986 batch, resigned from service in 2000 due to some personal problem. But due to some reason, his resignation was not accepted and he took it back after a year. He then approached CAT in 2003 and the tribunal, in 2005, ordered the state and central governments to reinstate him. Pandey graduated from the Indian Institute of Technology and has done a public administration course at Harvard.

Weep Hole leaking?
The small hole next to the timing hole on the left side of the engine is/was leaking oil.
What does that mean? Oil over filled? Engine filled with water?
Bike is a barn find. Have not gotten it started yet. Just curious.
What model?
Could be the drain hole for the starter motor. That could mean the crank case breather is piped to the wrong spot or clogged and leaking at the gasket into the starter area. Is the leak oil?
Depends. Only way to find out is to pull the starter cover and look. It could be, but not limited to:
Over filling could exacerbate 1 and 2, 3 well, I'm living with it until I decide I've had enough and fix it. The last, oh they will pay!
Depending on how bad and annoying it is, I might borrow an idea from the Chrome Brigade. I understand a lot of them put a trimmed maxi pad in the breather cover to prevent oil blow by from dribbling. If you have it apart, pop one in there to wick up the excess. This assumes that the barn find is more or less turn key. It's always better to fix the problem then work around it.
Just my $0.02, adjusted for inflation.
Badly leaking rms could allow oil to be flung up there.
Yes, oil. Will look at it closer in the next few days.
The cover is just that, no connection into the crankcase, other than the breather passing through. The hole is there to shed water that could enter through the air intake opening on the top of the cover.
As ME 109 said, the starter and the flywheel opening live in there. Could be Rear Main Seal oil coming up.
Photo of R100S cover removed:
(I had breather hoses circled for something else)
I used "Header Paint" on the jugs.
The "wierd" looking tank mount is a "Heinrich" tank mount. It has a "stud" that passes up into the tool box where it bolts into place.
This thing gulps gas so needs the extra tank capacity. This is a relatively small Heinrich tank. Maybe a little over 8 gallons.
The R100S engine is a 1978 so it used the old filter cover. The extra long crankcase vent hose for that year engine was hard to find.
No one seems to carry new ones, finally found a repalcement one on EBay.
Heinrich in place:
I have a newer model drum filter style airbox with the dual vent hoses, inc the hoses. Both the airbox and the top cover. I was going to polish them out. Need glass beading at minimum. I'm going to stay with my flat airbox. (have another one of those) too inc. top cover.). interested? (I'm trying to raise money for new brake lines. I'm poor).
An Item I got on ebay (and one of the last, I dislike the place) was a set of repro. Red turn signal lenses. Not the finest molding but look OK if you don't get right down real close. I used to have some OEM ones. Really look nice on the rear.
The "drum" on the back is an old "Hodaka Ace" Tool can for junk storage. (my first bike was a Hodaka 90) The tool box in the top of the tank is pretty big and holds an overstuffed tool kit that smells of gas all the time since the cap is vented.
I had a registration copy in the tool box, went to pull it out one time and the fumes had faded all the typing off the page. Handed the Cop a blank sheet of paper. He's like, "What's this?"
I just wanted to get in line for the Heinrich tank lust. Does the one who aches the most get the tank? :lol3
The last time I got pulled over by a cop I couldn't find my registration. For some reason this guy tells me "Never mind." He doesn't even want to see it. He wrote me a ticket though. It was a Warning for the Red Light I had run.
Hacker, just because you found one in a barn doesn't mean "they are out there". You found the last one, how about that?
it just got cut in half to make a BBQ tho'

The Truth & Consequences Of Texting While Driving
#1 road safety concern among Canadians is texting & driving
98% of adults think texting while driving is unsafe
Yet... 35% of Canadians admit to sending a text message or email while behind the wheel.
We recognize texting & driving is wrong
What's the worst that can happen?
4.6 seconds = average time texting drivers take their eyes off the road
In that length of time a car going 50 KM/H will travel 63.9 metres
That's like driving the entire length of an NHL hockey rink with your eyes closed
It takes 1.5 seconds for drivers to perceive a need to stop & move their foot to the brake pedal
Driving at 50 KM/H a car will travel at least 34.9 metres before coming to a full stop.
While sending or reading a text, you could:
Hit another vehicle
Texting drivers are 23X more likely to get into a crash
Strike a pedestrian
Hit at 50 KM/H pedrestrians have a
50% risk of severe injury
25% risk of death
Collisions aren't the only consequences
Since 2009 it is illegal in Ontario to text or use your cell phone while driving
The fine for texting and driving is $155
In court, judges can bump the fine up to $500
You could also be charged with careless driving
Fines up to $2,000
Possible jail time
6 demerit points
A careless driving charge can raise your car insurance premium by 50%
In 2012 the Ontario Provincial Police issued 15,916 distracted driving tickets
In a one week blitz the Toronto police laid 1,705 cell phone related driving charges
94% of Canadians are aware that texting while driving is illegal in their province
50% don't think the laws are enough to stop drivers from texting

text: The Colorado Rockies have been coming up with the big hits so far this season. Five of the Rockies' six runs in a 6-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks came with two outs. Troy Tulowitzki's bases-loaded double in the fifth inning was the huge blow. "Big-time hit by a big-time player," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said of Tulowitzki's double. "We've done a nice job with runners in scoring position and we've gotten the hit most of the time."

I canŌĆÖt deny it,ŌĆØ Davis said. ŌĆ£From the very first time he got here, he always told me, ŌĆśSon, you have the tools to be great.ŌĆÖ But I didnŌĆÖt know what he was talking about. I had to find that.ŌĆ£I remember the very first time he kicked me off the field. That day, he talked to me briefly. Tears were shed. I told him, ŌĆśI want to be traded, Coach. Let me out of here. YouŌĆÖre not using me. IŌĆÖm not happy.ŌĆÖŌĆ£He said, ŌĆśOK. IŌĆÖll find another team for you.ŌĆÖ ŌĆ£That moment, it started to click for me. I said, ŌĆśI have to put my teammates first because if I donŌĆÖt, IŌĆÖm going to lose all I have. I have to focus and I have to be different.ŌĆÖ ŌĆ£I knew Coach Singletary was trying to use a disciplinary action with me. I fed into it. ŌĆ£It made me a better man, a better teammate, and a better leader for my team. It helped me become the player I am today.ŌĆØ Davis says because of Singletary he now puts his teammates first. ŌĆ£Singletary helped me channel my emotions and really find out the best route to go. ŌĆ£Putting my teammates first was the best thing I couldŌĆÖve done. Once I did that, things started to happen for me. I started to see the game differently. It wasnŌĆÖt about me anymore. It was more about my team. ŌĆ£I enjoyed it. I still do. Everything that I do, I put my teammates first. To me, thatŌĆÖs the mark of a true leader. ThatŌĆÖs what I want to be. I want to be a leader and have guys continue to follow.ŌĆØ

SINGAPORE (ICIS)--China's Wanhua Chemical said on Friday that it is planning to build a 120,000 tonne/year superabsorbent polymers (SAP) project at Yantai in Shandong province amid expectations of strong domestic demand growth.
The project will utilise Wanhua Chemical's own acrylic acid as feedstock, the company said in a statement on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Under the first phase of the project, the company is planning to invest about about yuan (CNY) 160m ($26.2m) to construct a 30,000 tonne/year SAP unit at Wanhua Yantai Industry Park, it said.
Separately, the company is planning to invest around CNY1.6bn to establish its headquarters as well as a research and development (R&D) centre at the Yantai Economic Development Zone in the next two years.
The R&D centre aims to extend the company's product chain and tap opportunities in new areas such as propane and butane, it added.
Wanhua Chemical is currently the biggest methyl di-p-phenylene isocyanate (MDI) producer in Asia.

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: Melanie M. Brandabur, MD (University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine)
Description: The editor has assembled a great deal of information on the involvement of various metals in neuronal oxidative injury as related to neurological disease and treatment.
Purpose: The book includes the writings of many prominent workers from the spectrum of clinical and basic neurosciences. In the first section, the role of various metals (including iron, which is extensively discussed, as well as copper, manganese, zinc, and others) in oxidative processes is discussed. Next, the contributors explore mechanisms by which the brain is protected from these oxidative insults. The final section explores neurological conditions in which these mechanisms may be involved, such as hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, and also discusses potential therapeutic applications based upon these models.
Audience: The book is most useful for those involved in related research in basic neurosciences and those seeking to develop new clinical treatment options for patients afflicted with these conditions, since most of these options do not currently have definitive therapies.
Features: Apart from the striking photomicrographs on the cover, the illustrations and other graphics are functional but not out of the ordinary. The references are current and the substantial index is helpful, particularly in a compilation of this type.
Assessment: This is a well-written book that brings together a cohesive subset of related material and presents it in a useful format. This is an especially timely contribution in view of the current, widespread interest in oxidative processes in neurological disease.

SCIENCE STUDIO: Electrons
Keith & Russ talk with Dennis Lichtenberger of the University of Arizona's Department of Chemistry. Dennis talks about why the movement of electrons affect the behavior of molecules. He also talks about the ups & downs of the so-called "hydrogen economy," and why it's not just limited to fueling automobiles. Dennis first appeared on Science Studio 22 years ago in which he talked about C60 - Buckminsterfullerene, or "Bucky Balls" - a form of carbon whose electrons behave as if they belonged to a smaller molecule. http://www.chem.arizona.edu/faculty_profile/lich/lichx.html

Alvin Gentry considers Charlotte his home and made it clear that he would love to coach the Bobcats, who have a head coach opening after firing Mike Dunlap. "It reminds me a little bit of the teams I had in L.A. (with the Clippers): Young players, very energetic guys,'' Gentry said. "Kemba (Walker) and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist have a lot of potential and (Gerald) Henderson has started to really establish himself as a pro. "I've seen a lot of their games. Yes, they've struggled at times, but that's a situation where you could make a big change in a year or so. I know that player development is really important to that job.'' Gentry, 58, was let go by the Phoenix Suns this season. "You know they're going to get some good young players with those picks and then they have the (cap) flexibility to add a very good veteran player, somebody who can serve as an example to the rest of the locker room,'' Gentry said. "And you've got Michael (Jordan as owner) – the best player to e

College basketball season will reach its exciting conclusion next Monday night when a national champion is crowned. Handicapping the Hardwood, BangTheBook.com's groundbreaking and information-filled college basketball betting podcast, reached its exciting conclusion on Tuesday as Adam Burke and Kyle Hunter took to the airwaves for the final episode of the season. They covered the two Final Four matchups in deep detail and gave some general thoughts and possible lines for the four potential national championship game matchups.
Handicapping the Hardwood is designed to be an informational podcast that pays special attention to the betting aspect of college basketball. The whole point of the show is to make bettors aware of things that can help them make educated wagers. The oddsmakers are good and you need everything you can to get an edge. With schedule analysis, stats, trends, and coaching analysis, you can expect quality information from Handicapping the Hardwood, making it a must-listen every week for any serious college basketball bettor.
Opening remarks set the stage for the final show of the season. Adam extended his heartfelt thanks and appreciation to everybody who made this season of Handicapping the Hardwood a possibility, from his good friend Kyle, to the listens, to Ryan, the creator of BangTheBook.com. Most importantly, a sincere thank you to the listeners. Because of their demand, Handicapping the Hardwood was a major success this season in a market with little supply. Adam and Kyle are committed to bring top-notch podcast coverage of college sports in the future.
Officiating has been a major concern during the tournament as fans have had to endure questionable calls and far too many video replay reviews. Have the officials changed how Kyle is setting the lines or totals on the games? This information is far too valuable to miss out on, so click 'Play' on the embedded player to find out!
After some discussion about how the teams got to the Final Four and the routes that led them there, the games took center stage. Connecticut and Florida was discussed in deep detail. The Gators are the last remaining #1 seed and have rolled right on through to this matchup. Connecticut struggled at various times throughout the season, but there may not be a team in the field playing better than the Huskies.
What will be the deciding factor in this game? How will UConn deal with playing the most balanced team in the country? How will Florida contain Shabazz Napier? All of that and more was discussed in the breakdown of this game. Kyle's number was Florida -6, so he was right along the same lines as the oddsmakers.
UConn has some recency bias working in their favor, given how they've played lately. What would the line have been if Florida and UConn met in the Round of 32 if UConn was a #8 or #9 seed? Is that more of a true indicator of UConn's talent level?
In the other semifinal, the Kentucky Wildcats are playing up to their lofty potential and the Wisconsin Badgers are the only team to come out of the nation's best conference and make it to the Final Four. Can the Badgers handle Kentucky's athleticism? Will Kentucky be able to stay patient with the game's slow tempo?
Kentucky is a two-point favorite in this game. Does Kyle see value on either side? The Wildcats may not have been very battle-tested in the conference schedule, but has their March Madness run changed that, with wins over Wichita State, Louisville, and Michigan? Does that put them in a better position in this game? Will Wisconsin's emphasis on structure and fundamentals overshadow Kentucky's talent advantage?
A lot was discussed during the talk about this game and you're only hurting yourself if you don't take the time to listen before locking in your wagers.
Looking ahead to the potential title game matchups, Kyle gave out his lines for each of the games:
Florida -5 v Wisconsin, Total 128
Kentucky -5 v UConn, Total 133.5
For the other two matchups, listen to the podcast to find out!
Good points were made about all of the possible title games, but is this the best group of matchups from a fan perspective? Who will cut down the nets next Monday night? Is there futures value remaining on a team?
It has been a fun season on Handicapping the Hardwood. We hope that you were able to profit from the information presented or at least become a better handicapper because of the methods and topics covered on the shows.
Stay tuned for a possible return of the College Football Podcast (and we'll come up with a more creative name!) in July or August. Until then, enjoy baseball season, everybody!

Paper Tube Snake
Activity DesignerStephanie Sims
167 Projects
What You'll Need
- googly eyes (optional)
- felt (a scrap of red)
- yarn
How We Did It
We cut a long length (around three feet) of yarn. Then Maddie decided which piece would be the tail. She wove the piece of yarn through the holes and settled it at the end of the string. Once done, she strung the other pieces onto the yarn, sliding the head on last.
When all the pieces were strung, we taped the yarn ends inside the tail piece and the head. Then we cut eyes and a tongue out of felt and glued them on.
