This is the second one of these I've owned. I installed the first on my 2008 F150 and it was still on there when I sold it last month. Only sign of wear was in the rear corners where the latches are. Otherwise it looked as good as new. The Velcro along the sides holds the cover tight and it does not flap. I installed the new one on my F250 and hope it lasts as well as the first one.

Otis L. Sanford: Media too slow on horror story at Penn State
On most days, being a member of the news media makes me proud.
But there are those rare moments when it makes me cringe. The Penn State University child sex abuse scandal is one of those moments.
It's not because of how the media have reacted to the criminal charges against former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky. On the contrary, most media outlets have done a commendable job covering this horrific story and uncovering additional angles and details.
The Bob Costas interview of Sandusky is the most compelling piece of broadcast journalism I've seen in recent years. In his pathetic responses, Sandusky told the world far more about his sexual depravity than he ever intended. More on that later.
My beef with the media is based on the belief that they could have done more to expose Sandusky's wretched behavior much sooner.
Let me be clear. The lion's share of the blame for keeping Sandusky's deviancy a secret rests with ousted head coach Joe Paterno and others on and off the Penn State campus who opted to protect the national reputation of their hallowed football program.
It's inexcusable that they, along with executives at the charity Sandusky founded to help troubled boys, failed to alert law enforcement about not just suspicions, but eyewitness accounts of Sandusky sodomizing young boys on the Penn State campus.
Still, I cannot give the media a pass. How many questions did they ask, for example, when Sandusky -- at one time the heir apparent to Paterno -- abruptly "retired" from Penn State at age 55 in 1999? Apparently not enough to uncover the whispers and widely circulated rumors about Sandusky sexually preying on young boys.
Even after the Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot-News finally broke the story of a state grand jury investigation of the sex assault allegations against Sandusky on March 31, national print and broadcast media ignored it.
"With the biggest staff of sports journalists in the world, ESPN should have been leading the charge to ask tough questions and shed light on this scandal," wrote Jason Fry and Kelly McBride of the Poynter Institute for Media Studies in St. Petersburg, Fla.
"Instead, it was the tiny Patriot-News ... out in front of the journalism pack. Their reporters managed to track down two mothers of boys Sandusky allegedly abused."
Indeed, David Newhouse, executive editor of the Patriot-News, said in a Nov. 10 column that in addition to breaking the story of the Sandusky criminal investigation in March, his paper also published stories about the alleged scandal in April and August, "including one that reported the grand jury had heard testimony from multiple victims.
"Any national news media who were shocked by Sandusky's indictment ... evidently don't read our newspaper or look at our website. They should have."
Interestingly, Internet message boards devoted to Penn State's championship football program picked up the Patriot-News stories. But the national media didn't -- until all hell broke loose two weeks ago in Happy Valley, Pa.
But let's not lose sight of the real culprits here. They are Sandusky and anyone involved in covering up his crimes. And to those who want to harp about Sandusky's presumption of innocence or Paterno's unfair shake, let me refer you to these revealing excerpts from Sandusky's infamous interview with Costas.
Q: Are you sexually attracted to young boys, to underage boys?
A: Am I sexually attracted to underage boys. Sexually attracted, you know I enjoy young people. I love to be around them. Um, I, I, but no, I'm not sexually attracted to young boys.
Q: Did Joe Paterno at any time ever speak to you directly about your behavior?
A: No.
Q: Never?
A: No.
Q: He never asked you about what you might have done, asked you if you needed help, if you needed counseling?
A: No.
Q: Never expressed disapproval of any kind?
A: No.
Aside from the hideousness of Sandusky's crimes, the shame of it all is that when the choice came down to protecting children or the adults who harmed them, Penn State sided with the adults.
But what about the rest of us? We talk a good game about protecting the unborn or adequately educating all kids or preventing child abuse and neglect.
But when children are in real danger and the perpetrators are the adults we know, admire, respect, even fear, we too often make excuses and look the other way.
That's what happened in Happy Valley. To a far lesser extent, it's happening in Memphis and elsewhere.
It has to be exposed. It has to stop.

Research AbstractTogether with our imaging modality scientists and clinicians, part of my research program is designated to provide technical supports in design, synthesis, and chemical/biological characterization of molecular imaging (MI) agents, theranostic compounds or so-called therapy-enabling diagnostic (TED) agents for investigators from MGH Psychiatry Department and other local hospitals, researchers at the Harvard Medical School. Some of our current research efforts include the following:
Development of (i) target-specific and nanoparticle-based multi-functional MI agents for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurological disorders, brain tumor, breast cancer and other tumors; (ii) in vivo animal imaging platform for pre-clinical characterization of lead theranostic compounds. These include: design, synthesis, and chemical/biological characterization of MI agents and/or theranostic compounds, using conjugate and medicinal chemistry techniques. In particular, employing both MRI and Optical Imaging technologies, we will further determine lesion-specific and altered Fe metabolism as a biomarker for AD and breast cancer. In addition, bioluminescence/fluorescence-based in vivo model for TED lead optimization will be developed through collaboration with our optical imaging lab. We will also develop novel normal and cancer stem cell-labeling agents for stem cell tracking, proliferation and differentiation characterization, and its interactions with microenvironment that strongly influences its fates.
Cheminformatics-based investigations for (i) quantitative structure-property/activity relationship (QSP/AR) of TED agents; (ii) rational drug design of targeted theranostic compounds. We will design and identify novel lead therapeutic agents for disease-related targets and MI agents for disease-specific biomarkers. These will also include synthesizing tailored chemical compound libraries such as small focus libraries (SFLs) around lead structures using combinatorial and medicinal chemistry techniques for TED lead optimization. We will also curate both in-house and commercial compound libraries such as metal-complexing agents (NIST SRD 46) as imaging/contrast ligands and therapeutic agents, natural/synthetic antioxidants, and MI and contrast agent database (MICAD).
In summary, our research thrust is centered around this translational biomedical research paradigm that have the potential to contribute to the development of image-based personalized patient care.

Louisville Genealogical Society was founded in 1985;
membership is open to anyone interested in genealogy, or the
history of Louisville, Jefferson County, and surrounding
areas. It was organized in 1985 as a nonprofit,
educational society for the purpose of preserving,
evaluating and sharing local records. Click here for a brief history of the early years of the society.
The Louisville Genealogical Society membership approved revisions to the by-laws of the Society at the meeting held October 23, 2012. Click here to review the amended By-Laws.
Additional Day and Night Meetings
Louisville Genealogical Society now has night meetings (in addition to our regular meetings on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month) beginning in February. These evening meetings will be held on the third Wednesday of the month from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. at St. Matthews/Eline Public Library. Click here for complete information or click PROGRAM above. Note that the night meetings are also presented during the daytime from 10:00 - 12:00 Noon on the same days.
Program for Tuesday, May 12, 2015 - THE CHURCHILLS OF JEFFERSON COUNTY 1:00 PM presented by Mike Zanone
Although the Churchills are not actually his ancestors, Mike Zanone has done quite a bit of research on them over the past decade and more so in the past 2 years. His interest in this family is rooted in residing on the same land they once owned 200 years ago, when Samuel Churchill's plantation in central Jefferson County was known as "Spring Grove." Mr. Churchill's home was 2 blocks from where Mike lives, and that proximity has driven him to learn more about the family.
Mike's talk will cover various family members across four generations, from 1787 to 1899. There are a lot of interesting stories about the Churchills, and certainly as one of the early pioneer or founding families ofJefferson County they have left their fingerprints on our community in many ways (including a certain well-known horse race that happens every spring!). There are other, lesser known, interesting stories about the family he will include as well.
Mike Zanone is a lifelong resident of the St. Joseph neighborhood of Louisville near Preston St. and Eastern Parkway. He has served as the secretary & vice-president of the area's neighborhood association since it was formed in 1979. He has also served on the board of directors of the Louisville Historical League for the past 8 years. As an avid local historian he has given several walking tours of the St. Joseph neighborhood, along with talks about the area's history, occasionally appearing in the character of some of the area's historical figures as part of the ongoing "Legends of Spring Garden" series that began in 2006.

ClassicsOnline Home » IVES: Symphony No. 1 / Emerson Concerto > Review List
The two works on this disc represent Charles Ives in his precocious youth and in his white-hot maturity, at the extremes of his stylistic poles. In the First Symphony Ives is a college student learning to be a symphonist; in his maturity he would be a masterful shaper of large forms. The First Symphony was Ives's Yale graduation piece and for a composer barely over twenty it is an astonishing piece, a revelation of a young genius first flexing his muscles with the orchestra. The Emerson Concerto is one of the most radical works Ives ever created. It exists as a developed draft, one or two stages from a completed score. This performing version has been reconstructed by the Ives scholar David G. Porter.

Total orbital angular momentum and total spin angular momentum
For atoms in the first three rows and those in the first two columns of the periodic table, the atom can be described in terms of quantum numbers giving the total orbital angular momentum and total spin angular momentum of a given state. The total orbital angular momentum is the sum of the orbital angular momenta from each of the electrons; it has magnitude √(L(L + 1)) (ℏ), in which L is an integer. The possible values of L depend on the individual l values and the orientations of their orbits for all the electrons composing the atom. The total spin momentum has magnitude √(S(S + 1)) (ℏ), in which S is an integer or half an odd integer, depending on whether the number of electrons is even or odd. The possible value of the total spin angular momentum can be found from all the possible orientations of electrons within the atom. In summing the L and S values, only the electrons in unfilled shells (typically the outermost, or valence, shell) need be considered: in a closed subshell, there are as many electrons with spins oriented in one direction as there are with spins in the opposite direction, with the result that their orbital and spin momenta add up to zero. Thus, only electrons in unfilled shells contribute angular momentum to the whole atom. For light atoms and heavier atoms with just a few electrons outside the inner closed shells, the total angular momentum is approximately given by the vector sum of the total of orbital angular momentum and the total spin angular momentum. The total angular momentum has the magnitude √(J(J + 1)) (ℏ), in which J can take any positive value from L + S to |L − S| in integer steps; i.e., if L = 1 and S = 3/2, J can be 5/2, 3/2, or 1/2. The remaining quantum number, mJ, specifies the orientation of the atom as a whole; mJ can take any value from +J to −J in integer steps. A term is the set of all states with a given configuration: L, S, and J.
If the total angular momentum can be expressed approximately as the vector sum of the total orbital and spin angular momenta, the assignment is called the L-S coupling, or Russell-Saunders coupling (after the astronomer Henry Norris Russell and the physicist Frederick A. Saunders, both of the United States).
For heavier atoms, magnetic interactions among the electrons often contrive to make L and S poorly defined. The total angular momentum quantum numbers J and mJ remain constant quantities for a given state of an atom, but their values can no longer be generated by the addition of the L and S values. A coupling scheme known as jj coupling is sometimes applicable. In this scheme, each electron n is assigned an angular momentum j composed of its orbital angular momentum l and its spin s. The total angular momentum J is then the vector addition of j1 + j2 + j3 + . . . , where each jn is due to a single electron.
Atomic transitions
An isolated atom or ion in some excited state spontaneously relaxes to a lower state with the emission of one or more photons, thus ultimately returning to its ground state. In an atomic spectrum, each transition corresponding to absorption or emission of energy will account for the presence of a spectral line. Quantum mechanics prescribes a means of calculating the probability of making these transitions. The lifetimes of the excited states depend on specific transitions of the particular atom, and the calculation of the spontaneous transition between two states of an atom requires that the wavefunctions of both states be known.
The possible radiative transitions are classified as either allowed or forbidden, depending on the probability of their occurrence. In some instances, as, for example, when both the initial and final states have a total angular momentum equal to zero, there can be no single photon transition between states of any kind. The allowed transitions obey certain restrictions, known as selection rules: the J value of the atom can change by unity or zero, and if L and S are well defined within the atom, the change in L is also restricted to 0 or ±1 while S cannot change at all. The time required for an allowed transition varies as the cube of the wavelength of the photon; for a transition in which a photon of visible light (wavelength of approximately 500 nanometres) is emitted, a characteristic emission time is 1–10 nanoseconds (10−9 second).
Forbidden transitions proceed slowly compared to the allowed transitions, and the resulting spectral emission lines are relatively weak. For atoms in about the first third of the periodic table, the L and S selection rules provide useful criteria for the classification of unknown spectral lines. In heavier atoms, greater magnetic interactions among electrons cause L and S to be poorly defined, and these selection rules are less applicable. Occasionally, excited states are found that have lifetimes much longer than the average because all the possible transitions to lower energy states are forbidden transitions. Such states are called metastable and can have lifetimes in excess of minutes.

BBB: Dragons rally for win over Delta
January 11, 2014By Andrew Smith of New Palestine High School
The New Palestine Dragons rallied from a 12-point deficit to beat Delta 56-50 Friday night, improving to 6-2 on the year and 2-0 in HHC play.
Delta used two early nine-point runs to take leads of 9-2 and 23-11, and then led 26-17 going into halftime. The Dragons couldn't cut the lead below seven until the early stages of the fourth quarter, when they begn chipping away, led by point guard Samson Haynes, who scored eight of his career-high 10 points in the final quarter, and guard Ryan Curry, who had 13 of his team-high 16 points in the final eight minutes.
Kevin Riley and Ryan Curry hit big 3-pointers in the comeback. Trailing 48-46, Brandon Jonas' baseline drive tied the game. After the Dragons forced a turnover, Haynes drove in from the left side and dished the ball to Connor Roach at the rim, whose layup gave the Dragons the lead for good at 50-48. Another defensive stop netted a foul, and Curry knocked down the first two of six straight free throws to ice the game.
Curry finished the night with 16 points, including 9-11 from the line. He also had five rebounds. Jonas had 12 points and 11 rebounds, his second double-double of the year and the third posted by a Dragon this season. Haynes had 10 points and six assists, as well as four rebounds. Seth Cox and Roach had six rebounds each. Cox also had three blocked shots, while Roach had a team-best two steals.
Jalen Robinson led Delta with 21 points.
The Dragons scored half of their points in the fourth quarter -- outscoring the Eagles 28-15 in the final eight minutes. It's their second comeback from a double-digit deficit to win this season, and first come-from-behind win in the fourth quarter.
The Dragons are now 6-2 overall and 2-0 in HHC play. They next play Friday, Jan. 17, at home against Pendleton Heights. HancockCountySports.com will broadcast the game.

Back to the Beginning
An interview with Andrew Olendzki
Does our preference for "lamp" over "island" indicate why we see so little interest in monasticism in the West? We seem to pay lip service to renunciation while wanting things our own way. The Shramana movement was rooted in renunciation. And that's certainly another reason early Buddhism is not popular. In the early tradition, anybody is capable of awakening. But this ultimate attainment requires a very deep uprooting of psychologically embedded defilements. The first step in ancient India was to leave home, as the Buddha himself did. And that is a very radical step. One of the things early Buddhism says is required in order to cultivate the requisite level of equanimity is the cutting off of social and familial relationships. Nobody today wants to hear that. The Buddha had great respect for householders—but it's a somewhat different path.
There are people—albeit in the later schools—who view leaving home as an external display of cutting attachment, and see subtler ways to approach this. It's true that the distinctions are blurring, because one can point to very attached, worldly monastics and very dedicated laypeople who meditate a lot more than most monks. But the Buddha was pointing to the fact that deep inside all human beings is the habit of attachment, and his principal insight was that this attachment is the root of suffering. It can be abandoned. But it's going to take a lot of work. Leaving home does not change the fact that the mind is snared by craving, but it does attempt to provide optimal conditions to work with that craving. It's presumably easier to work with attachment to one's robe and bowl than to deal with attachment to family, responsibility, power, money, fame, and all the rest of it. So by increasing the level of renunciation, you somewhat reduce the amount of stuff that you have to work with in order to uproot craving.
The tendency in modern Westerners to feel that awakening in this lifetime is the only worthwhile goal may be an expression of either insecurity or vanity. In the American psyche, if there's a gold medal out there—i.e., enlightenment—then anything else is second or third rate. That's our competitive neurosis; it's not the view I see in the texts. Awakening is a gradual process that everybody is engaged in on one level or another. Life as a householder is a rich opportunity. That's certainly been my experience. I am quite content to live the life of a layman, and try to do so with the guidance and inspiration of the Buddhist tradition.
But in terms of the challenge that the Buddha laid out, is your aspiration capped in some way? Certainly. By embracing the householder life, I don't aspire to awakening in this lifetime. I think it's naive or deluded to think that one can have it both ways, to live as a householder and get awakened here and now, at least in the way the Buddha understood awakening. But the adjustment is simple. You give up the expectation of awakening in this lifetime, which can be done without abandoning the aspiration for final enlightenment, and everything opens up in front of you. There are a thousand ways each day to become a more mindful, kind, generous, and noble person. And there are a thousand ways each day in which your doing so will influence others and contribute to reducing the suffering of all beings. At any point a layperson can choose to raise their sights to awakening here and now, but—just as with the goal of mastering any skill—this would require a radical reordering of priorities and lifestyle.
Is the Buddha's enlightenment a source of inspiration for you? I do believe that something extraordinary happened to the Buddha under the Bodhi tree. But as the tradition evolved, the event became a huge historical drama: The Buddha lived many lifetimes, there were Buddhas before him and others will follow, he stands somehow at the center of the world system, and so forth. Personally, I am least inspired by that language. But I am profoundly moved to think of a more or less ordinary man going through this process of transformation involving yoga, asceticism, and meditation, understanding things in a radically new way, and then working throughout his life to share what he learned with others. The Buddhism that I am most drawn to reveals an astonishingly precise and penetrating investigation of the phenomenology of human experience. There is a well-known tendency in humans to idealize things. We certainly idealize the Buddha, and I think we may also idealize awakening. I am captivated by the possibility that this man found a way to radically reorder the human brain, and by the potential this holds for sustained human well-being.
Does what you call "holding some space around the Pali canon" contribute to this? I want to keep open the possibility that we do not yet fully understand what the Buddha was trying to teach us.
How are you doing that? Well, here at the study center in Barre we walk a fine line: We want to investigate the early texts and practices in ways people find personally relevant and meaningful, but we need to be careful not simply to plug ancient Buddhist information into our contemporary belief systems. On one hand lies the danger of merely reciting beliefs that were forged in another place and time and are no longer alive to us in a useful way; on the other hand we might create a Buddha who utters only teachings that are comfortable for a white middle-class American baby-boomer sensibility. The "middle way" here involves using classical maps to explore experience, while maintaining a critical spirit and a good deal of common sense.

Foreign Crewmen Observe Important Day of DPRK
| Wonsan, August 22 (KCNA) -- There took place a meeting of foreign crewmen at Wonsan Port, Kangwon Province on Friday to mark the 54th anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's start of the Songun revolutionary leadership.
Participants in the meeting laid a bouquet before the statues of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il in Wonsan City and paid tribute to them.
Present at the meeting were the captain and crewmen of Dong Feng 6.
Speeches were made there.
Speakers recalled that Kim Jong Il worked heart and soul to bolster up the defence capability of the country, making ceaseless journeys to inspect forefront units including those on Chol Pass and Mt. Osong despite rain or snow to protect the destiny of the country and its people.
He built invincible military muscle and achieved great army-people unity with his outstanding idea and through his wise leadership for over half a century, thus successfully leading the struggle for defending socialism and building a thriving nation, they noted, adding:
The Songun politics of the DPRK is now being carried forward and developed on a fresh higher stage by Marshal Kim Jong Un.
Thanks to his profound loving care, the Korean people invariably remain true to the idea and intention of Kim Jong Il and the revolutionary ranks are growing stronger as the most genuine and solid harmonious whole.
Only victory and glory will be in store for the service personnel and people of the DPRK who are advancing under the leadership of Kim Jong Un.
A letter to Kim Jong Un was adopted at the meeting.

Fudge, my dwarf hamster, definitely prefers this floor - he would often struggle on the previous floor and I had to put lots of cardboard down. This appears to provide sufficient ventilation, and as it is clear there is still plenty of light. Much better than the original floor. Loses a star because it was really hard to fit in.
This is a much better floor for the cage. It allows my Hamster to walk around without trapping her legs between the bars.
Makes the cage lighter and our hamster has no trouble with it. Good product!

Pirates of the Caribbean actor Sam Clafin is one lucky man. He has two stunning lead ladies in his life. On set with him is Snow White co-star Kristen Stewart and at home is actress Laura Haddock.
[See also: Ryan Gosling's got us all flustered]
[See also: Tulisa's got a new celeb fan]
When we chatted to the actor, we couldn't wait to get the gossip on both the girls. Having just started filming for Snow White, Sam seems to be getting on well with Kristen Stewart.
"She's lovely, a very talented girl," he told us. "Meeting her was one of those moments where I was expecting her to be a certain way, but she's a normal girl."
What do the pair chat about in between takes? If we were him we'd be asking all about Robert Pattinson, but it seems Sam hasn't questioned her on that front. Dammit.
"We have the same tastes in music so that's good - it's not all about acting. She's my age which is cool. But we haven't yet had that much time off-set together."
When we asked Sam who his ideal female lead would be, he was very loyal. "My girlfriend," he revealed. Then again, his girlfriend is none other than Laura Haddock, star of the Inbetweeners Movie, so we'll let him have that one.
"I'd love to do something with her," he explained. "I'd love to play across someone I have feelings for - like if it was a scene where she's shouting at me - I'd feel upset! I rate her hugely as an actress and we wouldn't have to worry about chemistry and whether or not we'd get on. She's my ideal woman."
Well, after that cute little speech, it seems that Sam's the ideal boyfriend.

COVINGTON, La. An armed robber boldly used a stun gun to overcome a woman in a parking lot Monday evening, getting away with her purse and contents within in, authorities said.
According to Covington Police, the victim had recently finished her work shift at a business on Kirkland Street, just two blocks away from police headquarters, and was walking to her car when an older model white car, with a faded black stripe on the side, pulled up.
Covington Police Capt. Jack West said, 'He walked toward her, started asking for directions. She started to give him directions and when he got close enough to her, he pulled out some sort of electronic stun device, put it to her body, stunned her and then grabbed her purse.'
The man then darted back to the car, jumping into the passenger side as the car sped away, police said. Police say they haven't seen any other cases like this recently. Other women who live and work in the area are baffled about this calibur of crime.
'I'm shocked, it's just terrible, really surprised to hear that,' said Fran Perrin, 'I feel, I felt like I was safer here.'
The woman described her assailant as a black man in his teens or early 20s with medium complexion and short hair, police said. No witnesses have been found, police said.
Authorities are asking anyone with information to call the Covington Police Department at 985-892-8500 or CrimeStoppers are 877-903-7867.

Massachusetts School Bus Drivers Join Teamsters Local 653
First Student Drivers Latest Group in New England to Choose Teamsters
WASHINGTON, March 1 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — First Student school bus drivers in Duxbury, Massachusetts, are the latest group of school bus workers to join the Teamsters Union in New England. The workers voted 19-5 to join Teamsters Local 653 in South Easton, Massachusetts. There are 24 workers in the bargaining unit.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100127/IBTLOGO)
"When you feel backed into a corner, you need to do something. It was time to organize," said John Gaffney, a seven-year driver with the company. "We're at the mercy of the company and have seen promises not kept, wages frozen and benefits reduced."
According to Brian McElhinney, Vice President of Local 653, First Student drivers from nearby Teamster-represented locations came out to support their coworkers in Duxbury as they worked to organize.
Since January 19, 300 school bus workers at seven First Student locations throughout New England, including Duxbury, have joined the Teamsters.
"We're happy to welcome our newest school bus members and look forward to negotiating a strong agreement that will improve their working conditions," said David W. Laughton, Secretary-Treasurer of Teamsters Joint Council 10.
The victory is the latest in an effort to organize private school bus and transit workers across the country. Drive Up Standards is a national campaign to improve safety, service and work standards in the private school bus and transit industry. Since the campaign began in 2006, more than 25,000 drivers, monitors, aides, mechanics and attendants have become Teamsters.
For more information on the Drive Up Standards campaign, go to: www.schoolbusworkersunited.org
Founded in 1903, the Teamsters Union represents more than 1.4 million hardworking men and women in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.

Driving the Bentley
popular .
So I find myself in Germany again, for a world launch and another Inquirer exclusive. Business-class plane tickets, a 5-star resort hotel in the midst of a beautiful German autumn up the equally beautiful German Alps. Fortunately, I didn't come here for the first-class treatment, wining and dining, etc. I came to Germany to drive. And drive very fast, stupid fast, as fast as I could drive on the Autobahn.
To describe driving the Continental GT Speed as fantastic is an understatement.
On the A8 and A99 routes of the Autobahn, the Continental GT Speed is peerless. With 616.44 hp and 800 Newton-meters of torque on tap, flooring the throttle, the suspension set in sport mode, and it's like cliff-diving, rocket jets strapped to your back. Countless cars tried to keep up with the Bentley: Porsches of all makes and models, V8 and V12 AMG Mercs, BMW Ms, Jaguars, a couple of Aston Martins, even a handful of late-model Ferraris. They were all left standing still whenever I'd floor the throttle. The rate the Bentley accelerates—from 100 to 270 kph—is simply mind-boggling, like someone pressed a button to stop time, allowing only the Continental to speed up and everyone remained motionless. Cynics will say going fast in a straight line is easy, but try going stupid fast for four hours a day, to meet the schedule and get someone onto his flight on time, some 350 kilometers away, and let's see if you'll find that easy. I wasn't able to beat my personal best of 286 kph in a Porsche Panamera Turbo S last year, only hitting 280 kph this time, with traffic being far heavier due to Munich's proximity to the Alps (where every German in Bavaria tries to go to on the weekend). Still it's amazing I could hit the speeds I was hitting with far greater ease than I did with the Panamera.
But being a luxurious Grand Tourer, the Bentley's sweet spot for me is cruising at around 200 kph all day while enjoying a conversation about politics, cars and our countries with my driving partner, Ahmed from Malaysia. Slot the big gear-change lever into manual mode and the flappy paddles behind the steering wheel allow for block-shifting (i.e., non-sequential), thus shifts can be made faster. The all-important eighth-to-third-gear downshift can be done quickly, so cruising at a low 1,200 rpm in eighth at 100 kph, all the way to third for those manic overtaking maneuvers is seamless, showcasing the Bentley's Jekyll & Hyde persona on demand.
While the Big Bentley prefers high-speed cruising, it does fine on the tight and twisty stuff. And when I say tight and twisty, I mean 5-meter-wide roads such as the Alpenstrasse going up to our hotel for the evening, the Intercontinental Bertichsgarden, situated at the foothills of the Alps, less than 30 minutes away from neighboring Austria. With the mountain facing on one side and cliff on the other, the big Bentley deftly masks its heft as I pound the Alps to make it in time for dinner. It's here that the Bentley proves to be a real pussycat: The light steering, still brimming with decent feel, allows you to accurately place the Continental inches away from the curb and Armco barriers, making overtaking small and slow vehicles a walk in the park despite limited space.
In between Autobahn blasting, we find ourselves driving through a lot of wine and farm country, sleepy towns with picturesque medieval churches (Bavaria is predominantly Catholic unlike the rest of Germany, which is Protestant, with a surprisingly large part being Muslim) and lattice-like winding roads, the Continental soaks it all up with ease, the Satnav working perfectly to keep us within schedule. Like a velvet gauntlet, the Continental GT Speed is fast, powerful, overwhelmingly brutal especially when you floor the throttle. Yet it exudes a somber confidence without the flashy histrionics of traditional sports cars and GT cruisers.
Truthfully, while I love the Bentley so much (that its name starts with a B makes it easy for me to love it right from the start, plus the Continental and I are both very much in the PLUS sizing), I know it's not YET for me. Bentley sees its customers in the '60s, although the Continental, particularly the base-model V8 and regular GTC variants have been attracting new, much younger customers.
And to make things more interesting for the brand, an all-new GT3 Race Spec of the Continental V8 has been recently unveiled at the Paris Motorshow this year. Details are vague, but Bentley hopes to sell these turn-key race cars to gentlemen-racers. Much like in the old days of Walter Owen Bentley and Woolf "Babe" Barnato. Things are getting exciting again for the boys at Crewe, England. I'm glad we'll be officially welcoming them over by February of 2013.

For Colleen's spring break, we headed down to Savannah for a couple of days to scout for an apartment for her pending move.
Come Monday, we were making the requisite food plans and Jo wanted to go to Paula Dean's restaurant, Lady & Sons. I had read about Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room for years, but we had only been in Savannah on the weekends previously. This was the day.
We started the morning by putting in our name for a dinner reservation at Lady & Sons, then made our way over to Mrs. Wilkes to wait in line there. They open at 11:00. We got there at 11:30 and ended up waiting about 90 minutes to get inside. The view above is as you walk in the front door. Mrs. Wilkes has been open since the 40s, originally as a boarding house. It was converted into a restaurant and now has family-style lunches at tables that seat ten.
The table was covered in a veritable cornucopia of food – fried chicken, barbecue, roast beef, macaroni and cheese, green beans, field peas, butter beans, fried okra, squash, mashed potatoes, tomatoes, biscuits and cornbread, and at least ten more bowls.
The biscuit? It was okay.
The vegetables? Fresh and flavorful.
The fried chicken? It deserved a blue ribbon. It was among the top 10 pieces of fried chicken I've ever eaten.
If you're in Savannah, and only have time for one truly Southern meal, make the right decision and dine at Mrs. Wilkes.

Australian researchers have discovered what makes the Komodo dragon's bite so deadly for its prey.
Scientists previously considered that the world's largest lizard's mouth held deadly bacteria that stopped its victims' blood from clotting. Walter Auffenberg put that theory forward in 1981.
But lead researcher Bryan Fry used magnetic resonance imagery to show that the deadly lizard packs a venomous bite, as seen through its venom gland with ducts that lead to their teeth.
Fry used 3-D computer imaging to compare the Komodo's bite with the bite of the Australian saltwater crocodile, which has a skull of comparable size. His team found that the Komodo's bite is only one-sixth as powerful as that of the crocodile.
Imaging revealed that the Komodo used a pulling maneuver similar to the motion of the bite of a shark or saber cat.
The report, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, also found that other venomous lizards, including the Gila monster, were part of the same family as Komodo dragons. Additionally, venomous lizards and snakes appear to have descended from common origins.
"These lizards make a huge wound using their teeth; that's good enough to get the venom in," Christofer Clemente, a comparative physiologist at the University of Cambridge and a co-author of the study, told BBC News.
"They are robust enough that they can hang on to prey. Other groups like snakes are much more fragile – they have to bite something and let it go. So they have these hollow fangs and more deadly venom."
The venom is effective in killing victims by causing a sudden drop in blood pressure, resulting in shock and it also had an anti-clotting affect.
"Such a fall in blood pressure would be debilitating in conjunction with blood loss and would render the envenomed prey unable to escape," said Fry.
"These results are congruent with the observed unusual quietness and apparent rapid shock of prey items."

Opines Tom Piatak of Chronicles magazine:
Most Ukrainians do not want to be part of Russia's "near abroad." In this they resemble most Poles, Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Finns, Czechs, Slovaks, and Hungarians. Those who experienced Russian rule, either under the tsars or the commissars, generally do not harbor any nostalgia for it. Instead, they fear its return. A post-Communist Russia does not pose any threat to us, and the United States should stay out of Russia's dispute with Ukraine for that reason. But Russia does pose a potential threat to its neighbors, and giving support to rebels who shoot down airliners will do nothing to reassure those worried by a revival of Russian power. Putin's task should be to allay the fears of Russia's neighbors, not to stoke them.

nice work!!!! lovely pouch!! I saw that like me, you also have signed up in numerous classes....I have taken this course (among many many others) but I only have two hands, so one thing at a time...right now I am playing with double knitting..then I most possibly jump to shuttle tatting and....you know how it is...it never ends...I think I am hooked into all kinds of crafting...so, I guess we will be seeing or rather reading each other here quite a lot! See you soon! Have fun!
I just saw this comment! When did you leave it? There is not enough time to watch all the Craftsy classes, but when I retire, maybe! How is the shuttle tatting?
Very nice work, beautiful colors and nice fabrics
wow! your little zipper pouch looks so beautiful and professional! I can't believe it. Lovely. I wonder if I could make something with a zipper too . . . . ?
Thanks! You certainly can! I just learned how to use a sewing machine again and was able to do it. Not having to use pins really helped.
What type of fabric and other material do you need to make this bag
Hi Rachel, I used two fat quarters of quilting cotton, a zipper and fusible interfacing.
