The Cardinals met with Albert Pujols' agent today
Dec 6, 2010, 8:51 PM EDT
Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak told reporters that he met with Albert Pujols' agent Dan Lozano today, according to B.J. Rains of FOXSportsMidwest.com.
Mozeliak wouldn't classify the talks as "negotiations" and cautioned that he doesn't intend to provide regular updates to the media in regards to a contract extension.
"This is not going to be negotiated in the media," Mozeliak said. "When and why things happen, I think both Dan and I would like to keep that private and confidential. I think that's how we'll proceed. You're not going to get a play-by-play and we're not going to announce if we're talking or not. At some point if we feel there needs to be a public statement and we both agree on it, then we'll do it."
"Rather than me be coy every time you guys ask, just understand that's his request and I'm perfectly happy working under those conditions. If we have a chance to do something, it just makes more sense to do it confidentially."
Mozeliak has previously indicated that he hopes to get something done before Christmas, so if all goes well, the next time we'll hear about this situation from either the team or Pujols' representatives is when they are ready to make an official announcement on an extension. Pujols is obviously in his own stratosphere, but Cardinals fans have to feel good about Adrian Gonzalez's pending contract extension with the Red Sox, as it seemingly takes one potential suitor out of the bidding.
- Adam - Dec 6, 2010 at 11:27 PM
Except that after this year the Red Sox could exile Ortiz and put someone in the stupid DH slot. Not that they would, but they could.
This brings up an interesting question. With the Red Sox, Phillies and Yankees set at 1B for the foreseeable future, what kind of money can the Prince Fielder types get? They won't have all the deep pockets coming after them to drive the price up. Even the Angels, who have been known to be big spenders, will likely have to pass on big name, big money players if they sign Crawford.

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2015 Volkswagen Tiguan
By KBB.com Editors
Volkswagen calls its new Tiguan the GTI of compact SUVs; a bold statement considering the hot hatchback's legendary handling capabilities, but not completely without merit. Although the Tiguan shares most of its chassis and suspension with the Passat, it is powered by the GTI's 200-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. Compared to the competition, the Tiguan has a lot going for it, including a substantial number of standard safety and comfort features, terrific performance and great styling. Starting out around $24,000 for the base model and topping out well past the $30,000 mark for a loaded SEL, steep pricing may unfortunately turn out to be the Tiguan's Achilles' heel.
If you're looking to move out of your big SUV, but still need a vehicle that can haul a fair amount of cargo, comfortably hold four passengers and has plenty of power on hand, the new 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan makes for a painless transition.
If you're looking for a compact SUV starting under $20,000, need a third-row seat or a warranty lasting longer than three years/36,000 miles, the Tiguan probably won't make your top-ten list.
Volkswagen continues to add new models in an attempt to increase its U.S. market share. Already a smash hit in Europe, the Tiguan offers the rare combination of good fuel economy and a high-output engine. With the Tiguan, VW hopes to lure enthusiast drivers away from less sporty small SUVs, such as the Honda CR-V and the Saturn VUE.
Driving Impressions With a sub-eight-second zero-to-60-mph acceleration capability, the Tiguan, with its 200-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, certainly moves like a GTI, but the little SUV's tall ride height and softer suspension don't...inspire the same thrilling cornering maneuvers. We found the six-speed manual somewhat lacking, with long throws and too much play between gears. The automatic actually works better in this vehicle and is the only transmission available with the SE and SEL, as well as with the 4Motion all-wheel-drive system. On the highway, the Tiguan's well-insulated cabin minimizes outside noise, even with the enormous panoramic glass sunroof installed. The Tiguan's ride is fine so long as the pavement below remains smooth, and the steering response, braking and overall drivability are above average for this class.
Touch Screen Navigation with Rear Camera
VW's latest navigation system features a 3D viewing angle, intuitive controls and a 30-gigabyte hard drive for storing map data and audio files.
Panoramic Glass Sunroof
Optional on the SE and SEL, the massive panoramic glass sunroof covers nearly 13 square feet, bathing occupants in light and fresh air. A power sunshade shields occupants when tanning time ends.
Like most VW products, the Tiguan's interior is awash in high quality materials and thoughtful placed controls. Although the base S model's interior seems a bit drab, up-level SE and SEL trims, with their contrasting materials and optional leather seating, are quite appealing. Though not as generous with cargo space as the Jetta SportWagen, the Tiguan has rear seats that slide forward a full six inches to help increase storage when necessary. An optional panoramic glass roof opens the entire cabin to sunlight and features a power sunshade for when the UV rays become too strong.Exterior
From a distance, the 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan might be mistaken for the larger Touareg, but move closer and the vehicle's unique identity quickly becomes evident. The distinctive fascia imparts a sporty image, as do the racy 17- and 18-inch alloy wheels found on the SE and SEL trims. Standard safety features include anti-lock brakes and an Electronic Stability Program, and nearly seven inches of ground clearance permit the Tiguan to traverse deep snow and off-road obstacles with ease.
The 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan features a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, six-speed manual transmission, traction and stability control, electronic differential lock, six-airbags (front, front-side and front and rear side-curtain), power heated side mirrors, 16-inch alloy wheels, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, power locks, remote keyless entry, AM/FM stereo with single CD player, tilt and telescopic steering wheel and an electronic parking brake.
Options vary by trim and include 4Motion all-wheel drive (SE and SEL), six-speed automatic transmission, 17-inch alloy wheels (S), panoramic glass sunroof, leather seating, heated front seats, 300-watt Dynaudio stereo, in-dash CD changer, navigation, dual-zone automatic climate control, 12-way power-adjustable front seats and rear side thorax airbags.
Volkswagen's 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with direct fuel injection is arguably one of the best four-cylinder engines on the market. It's smooth, quiet and always a willing supplier of horsepower and torque. Pumping out 200 horsepower, the 2.0-liter still manages highway fuel economy in the mid-20 mpg range, even when saddled with the extra weight of the 4Motion all-wheel-drive system.
2.0-liter in-line 4 turbocharged
200 horsepower @ 5100 rpm
206 lb.-ft. of torque @ 1700-5000 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 19/26 (manual), 18/24 (automatic), 18/24 (4Motion)

"VW Engineers executed an excellent product. Overall fit and function are great. What really stands out is the vehicles noise and comfort on highways, it is incredibly quiet and responsive. The 4-motion AWD system is impressive to say the least on snow covered roads. When paired with a quality snow tire this vehicle is more stable than any 4wd pickup I've ever driven."

"The car drives fine. The navigation system doesn't work well--often taking me to the wrong place. It's fairly comfortable & roomy. However, I can't tell where I am on the road. I hate that! The windshield is slightly curved & I can't see any of the hood which makes my perception of the road very uncomfortable. I feel like I'm always over both lane lines. It's very disconcerting & I've been driving for over 30 years. Because of this issue, I can't stand the car! I've only had it since July & I want to replace it. And typically, I keep my cars until they're dead. Not the Tiguan. I can't wait to get rid of it :("

"Engine problems from the very beginning check engine light constantly on.

Engine leaks, need to service intake camshaft at aprox. 60,000 even though it is not indicated on any of the regular service schedule for the vehicle. Very sadden and disappointed of the whole experience, this was my very first big purchase brand new car and it was a major fail."

Pros: "Great handling, peppy for small SUV."
Cons: "Problematic engine coils; limited storage/truck."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8
"As one of the prior reviewers noted, the S-model is a great buy... no fancy stuff but great price. I bought one with manual transmission and it feels like a real automobile, not one of those tinker cars! Dealer couldn't wait to get it off his lot -great price, under $22K. Only problem has been "engine". At 26000 miles, almost 3 years (still under warranty) one of the ignition coils failed. Not much pep in a 4 cylinder with one not functioning. Dealer replaced. Ten days later another ignition coil failed. Now have four new coils. Hoping the new coils last. Other than this problem this is probably the best engineered car I have owned since my 1961 Chevy Impala."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 65,000overall rating 9 of 10rating details
Pros: "S Model = best value, 6 spd ... think a lifted GTI"
Cons: "Dealer service is expensive - DIY easy to save $$"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9
"Over the years I've owned many cars (BMW, VW, Nissan, Ford, Jeep) and of all of them, the Tiguan has offered me the best mix of performance, comfort, and price to date. I have the S model (6spd manual) and it rides and feels like a GTI with a 6 inch lift on it. The pricing for a Tiguan can vary widely (from $22K to $40K - as new), however the real value with the Tiguan lies in the S model. With 65000 miles now on the clock, I've had no unscheduled maintenace except for a throttle body which was replaced under warranty. I've performed my own maintenance as well (tune up, oil changes, etc) and everything for routine maintenance is very easy to access for DIY savings. Example - my 60,000 mile service cost me $75 vs. the dealer price of $450. What did it require? ... spark plugs (easy), oil change (easy), brake fluid change (brake masters did it for $30), and air filter changes (easy). Overall the fit/finish and quality of the materials of the Tiguan are outstanding. Again, the real value in a Tiguan is in buying the lower priced S model. Don't forget there are so many aftermarket upgrades you can make to your S-Tiguan to make it look and perform better than the top of the line R model. One last thing ... I LOVE the fact that I have cloth seats here in AZ. Finding a quality european car with cloth seats these days is harder than one would think."

'Woody Sez' delivers Guthrie's populist message with gusto
Bruce Springsteen — one of many musicians, from Bob Dylan to Kacey Musgraves, who are unimaginable as we know them without Woody Guthrie — once described Guthrie's music as "the core of what it means to be an American," adding that "such songs don't get written anymore, because no one knows how to write them."
That's reason enough to applaud the Milwaukee Repertory Theater's decision to give us a two-month run of "Woody Sez," in which a quartet of superb musicians offers us a glimpse of the man and his music. It opened Sunday night in the Stackner Cabaret. »Read Full Article

Kale and blood orange quinoa salad is a light and bright meal. This super healthy salad is full of flavor and nutrition. Kale and quinoa are both recognized as superfoods rich in vitamins and minerals. The beauty of this kale and blood orange salad is that you can play around with the ingredients and tailor it to whatever vegetables you have on hand.

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 shallots, sliced into strips
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
3 inches small blood oranges, cut into segments
1 package pomegranate seeds, one 8-ounce package

2 tablespoons honey
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons Meyer lemon juice

Meanwhile, in a large skilled heat olive oil and add shallots. Sauté for about 3 minutes until just softened. Add kale and stir just long enough for the kale to wilt, about 1 minute.

genus of extinct primates, 1895, from Modern Latin, literally "monkey-man," from Greek pithekos "ape" + anthropos "man" (see anthropo-). Coined 1868 by Haeckel as a name for a hypothetical link between apes and men (attested in English in this sense from 1876); applied by Dr. Eugène Dubois (1858-1940), physician of the Dutch army in Java, to remains he found there in 1891.
An extinct hominid postulated from bones found in Java in 1891 and originally designated Pithecanthropus erectus because it was thought to represent a species evolutionarily between apes and humans. Pithecanthropus is now classified as Homo erectus. Also called Java man. See more at Homo erectus.

Eddy Arnold, Pioneer of the Nashville Sound
Schirmer Books, 1997 - Country musicians - 290 pages
Eddy Arnold was just a sweet-voiced, third-generation cotton farmer from Western Tennessee with a dream: to lift himself out of rural poverty and make a name for himself as a country performer. This book traces the history of the Arnold family to a Confederate soldier named Robert M. Arnold, who began farming cotton in the Henderson region after the war. His son, Will, wed twice; his second wife, Georgia, gave birth to Richard Edward Arnold in 1918. After the stock market crash, Will Arnold lost ownership of his farm, and young Ed was less than happy working as a tenant farmer for absentee owners. An avid amateur guitarist, he soon had paying jobs at dances and gatherings around the area; inspired to go further afield, he traveled up the road to Jackson, Tennessee, where he garnered his first radio job. Meanwhile, he worked daytimes for an undertaker to help make ends meet. Forming a duo with fiddler Howard "Speedy" McNatt, they moved from station to station, in search of the elusive perfect homebase. They got as far as St. Louis, where their local popularity blossomed. A chance audition with radio cowboy star Pee Wee King led the duo to join King's successful band, and even greater fame for the smooth-voiced Tennessee songster. With King's band, Eddy honed his professional chops, was introduced to a wide audience via Nashville's "Grand Ole Opry" radio program, and met the legendary and flamboyant manager Colonel Tom Parker, who would greatly influence his career. Breaking away as a solo act, Eddy signed with Victor Records toward the end of World War II, and formed his first, highly influential band, featuring fiddler McNatt, "Little" Roy Wiggins on steel guitar, and bassist Gabe Tucker. His first hits were sentimental ballads, and by the late '40s he was one of Victor's top-selling artists and a consistent concert draw. His popularity was so great that he became a welcome figure on national radio and television in the mid-'50s. Then, a new sound shook the airwaves: Rock and roll. The market for Eddy's smooth country style diminished, and Eddy faced some lean times. Determined to crossover into the mainstream pop market, he experimented with a variety of styles until, in the early '60s, he hit on a perfect blend of country sentiments with uptown accompaniments. The result was a string of mid-'60s hits, highlighted by the classic "Make the World Go Away". Eddy Arnold was a star all over again - and this time on the mainstream stage.

Geographic Range
Incan shrew opossums (Lestoros inca) are found in the Andes Mountains in Peru and Bolivia. They have been found near the headwaters of Rio Alto Madre de Dios, Rio Marcapata, and Rio Inamberi, as well as in departmento Las Paz, Bolivia. (Myers and Patton, 2008; Patterson and Solari, 2008)
- Biogeographic Regions
- neotropical
It has been suggested that this species prefers environments that are somewhat less wet than the other members of family Caenolestidae. However, they have been trapped in a variety of wet mossy areas, as well as drier scrub environments. Incan shrew opossums are found in montane environments with low trees, bushes and grasses, often in cloud or elfin forests. They have been found in elevations ranging from 1,800 to 3,600 meters. (Kirsch and Waller, 1979; Myers and Patton, 2008; Patterson and Solari, 2008)

Physical Description
Incan shrew opossums are marsupials. They are somewhat shrew-like in appearance and have elongated faces. They are the only members of the genus Lestoros, but are very similar in appearance to genus Caenolestes; however, Incan shrew opossums have smaller upper canines. Incan shrew opossums have thick, medium length, dark gray fur. They have curved ears, small eyes and long hind feet. These animals have whiskers on their chin, side of their nose and their forelimbs. Their total body length is approximately 90 to 120 mm, including a tail length of 105 to 135 mm, approximately the same length as their body. Incan shrew opossums weigh between 20 to 35 grams. (Kirsch and Waller, 1979; Myers and Patton, 2008)
In general, members of family Caenolestidae can be distinguished from other marsupial groups by their unique dentition. They have a reduced number of incisors and their lower middle incisors are large and have a forward slope. The dental formula for genus Caenolestes is: I 4/3, C 1/1, P 3/3, M 4/4, 46 teeth total. While their tail is not prehensile, it is used for support while they climb and for balance. Shrew opossums have short robust limbs, each containing 5 digits; their middle 3 digits are shorter than the outside two. Their humeri are extremely heavy; their femurs are relatively slender in comparison. Members of family Caenolestidae have unusual lip flaps, which may function as a method of preventing debris from interfering with their whiskers or it may help prevent ingestion of unwanted debris. Similar to other marsupials, Caenolestid females have 2 uteri and 2 vaginas. Members of genus Caenolestes lack a pouch but do have 4 mammae, 2 on either side of their abdomen. Caenolestids are sexually dimorphic, with adult males larger than adult females. (Albuja and Patterson, 1996; Lee and Cockburn, 1985; O'Connell, 2006; Osgood and Herrick, 1921; Tirira, 2007)
Common shrew opossums (Caenolestes obscurus), another member of family Caenolestidae, show evidence of a low metabolic rate, based on their body temperature (35.4° C), their body weight (about 40 g), their cool habitat and their thick fur coat. This species shows no evidence of entering torpor. (McNab, 1978)

There is currently little information available regarding the mating system of Incan shrew opossums.
Female Incan shrew opossums lack a marsupium; however, immature individuals may have an undeveloped fold of skin that they lose before reaching maturity. Females have 4 mammae available for their young to nurse. Evidence suggests that Caenolestid females have the same number of ova as mammae, unlike family Didelphidae. In support of that notion, a female was found pregnant with 3 embryos, 2 in the right uterus and 1 in the left. These animals likely have one annual breeding season from February to August. (O'Connell, 2006; Osgood and Herrick, 1921; Tirira, 2007; Tyndale-Biscoe and Renfree, 1987)
- Key Reproductive Features
- iteroparous
- seasonal breeding
- gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate)
- sexual
- viviparous
- Breeding interval
- Members of family Caenolestidae likely breed once per year.
- Breeding season
- The breeding season of family Caenolestidae is likely between February and August.
No information is currently available regarding this species.
There is currently no information on the longevity of Incan shrew opossums.
Members of genus Caenolestes are solitary; they are primarily active during the early evening and at night. They are terrestrial, but they are also adept climbers. During the day, these animals stay in tunnels under tree roots. When they are active, they travel through paths in dense vegetation. (Myers and Patton, 2008; O'Connell, 2006; Patterson and Solari, 2008; Tirira, 2007)
- Key Behaviors
- terricolous
- nocturnal
- crepuscular
- motile
- solitary
Home Range
There is currently no information available about the home range of Incan shrew opossums.
Communication and Perception
Members of family Caenolestidae have very small eyes and poor eyesight. Incan shrew opossums have tactile whiskers on their chin, the side of their nose and their forelimbs. Their unusual lip flaps have the hypothesized function of clearing debris from their sensitive vibrissae, but they may merely function as a method of preventing the ingestion of unwanted debris. Their somewhat primitive brains have enlarged olfactory bulbs, which could indicate an enhanced sense of smell. When they are startled they attempt to hide and they hiss when cornered. Caenolestids are not noted for frequent production of sound, however, captive individuals may make several sounds including whistles, bird-like screams, rat-like squeaks and drawing air through their incisors. (Hume, 1982; Kirsch and Waller, 1979; Myers and Patton, 2008; O'Connell, 2006; Vaughan, et al., 2011)
Food Habits
Members of genus Caenolestes are opportunistic feeders. Their stomach contents indicate that they are primarily insectivores. Ingested invertebrates include beetles, crickets, butterfly larvae, centipedes, grasshoppers, spiders, and earthworms. A smaller proportion of their diet is composed of vegetation, fruit and small vertebrates including juvenile mice. They forage for food in moss and leaf litter. When they find a food item, they manipulate and consume it with their forepaws, from a semi-seated position. As Caenolestids shear their food with their incisors, they produce a clicking sound. (Barkley and Whitaker, 1984; Timm and Patterson, 2008; Tirira, 2007)
- Primary Diet
- carnivore
- Animal Foods
- mammals
- insects
- terrestrial non-insect arthropods
- terrestrial worms
- Plant Foods
- leaves
- fruit
There is currently little information regarding the predation of Incan shrew opossums. However, there are several carnivores known to inhabit a similar range and prey upon small mammals, such predators include Andean Mountain cats (Leopardus jacobita), pampas cats (Leopardus colocolo), culpeo foxes (Lycalopex culpaeus) and cougars (puma concolor), among others. (Lucherini, et al., 2009)
Ecosystem Roles
Incan shrew opossums have an insectivorous diet. Likewise, Caenolestids are often plagued by lice of the genus Cummingsia. Interestingly, Australian marsupials are also affected by similar lice, related to the family level. Incan shrew opossums are known to carry chiggers (Sasacarus incae), mites (Xenomyobia hirsute, Hoffmannina peruensis, and Crotiscus brennani) and nematodes (Pterygodermatites hymanae). Caenolestids may also become infested with South American hard ticks (Ixodes jonesae). (Barkley and Whitaker, 1984; Fain, 1994; Jimenez and Patterson, 2012; Lee and Cockburn, 1985; Lee, 1982; Lee, 1987; Tirira, 2007; VanZolini and Guimaraes, 1955)
- lice (Cummingsia)
- South American hard ticks (Ixodes jonesae)
- chiggers (Sasacarus incae)
- mites (Xenomyobia hirsute); (Hoffmannina peruensis); (Crotiscus brennani)
- nematodes (Pterygodermatites hymanae)
Economic Importance for Humans: Positive
Due to their human-inaccessible habitat, there has been very little study of these animals. Likewise, there has been very little interaction between human and shrew opossum populations. They may, however, serve as a control of insect populations. (Kirsch and Waller, 1979)
Economic Importance for Humans: Negative
There are no known negative effects of Incan shrew opossums on human populations.
Conservation Status
Incan shrew opossums are currently plentiful in protected areas and are listed as a species of least concern on the IUCN Red List of threatened species. (Patterson and Solari, 2008)

When Tim Schafer's Double Fine Productions raised $3 million on Kickstarter for a new point-and-click adventure game, part of the deal was that 2 Player Productions (of Minecraft documentary fame) would film the development process.
Now, the first part of their documentary has arrived, taking a look inside the wild fundraising ride that took Double Fine Adventure to $3 million.
Schafer is hilarious on camera, as usual, and the footage of the actual development process could be even more entertaining. This is definitely Kickstarter money well spent.

Most would describe me as a free spirited, yet disciplined person. I love to laugh and enjoy good times with friends and family. I am really into yoga and can't go a week without it. I would like to meet someone that is really open to having a relationship, but at the same time will not settle for "ok". Being able to enjoy the process of getting to know someone and vice versa would be ideal! My membership will be ending soon, so I hope to make this time count. :) If you are serious about getting to know someone to see if the "real thing" is possible and like what you have read, then reach out.

"When I found the old popcorn maker stashed away in a back closet of our FOB (Forward Operating Base), I couldn't imagine it would ever work. After some parts and TLC, I got it running again. The next step was figuring out how to get the troops working for me some popcorn to eat! I called several companies, tried Amazon, etc. Nobody was able to ship a large bag of popcorn, salt, and oil to an APO address. Then I tried Nationwide Candy, and Jason was immediately able to put together my order and get it shipped out to me. Nationwide Candy and Jason have no idea how happy they have made my 200 troops to have a little taste of home out here in Afghanistan. It's the little things from back home that keep us going, and Nationwide Candy had a big part in that. THANK YOU!"by Mitchell H. on 10/16/2014

Flowers and prints and collectibles, oh my.
First glance of the living room and library is all a tad overwhelming.
There's Waverly, Waverly everywhere.
After listening to Jeff and Mary Kay Huneke, of Ohio Street in Huron, talk about their home, suddenly the bold primary color scheme becomes quaint and precious.
The house was built in 1907 by master carpenter, Angus M. Cole, for his son. Cole's home is next door.
Jeff and Mary Kay moved into the home in 1979. It still posesses Cole's original layout but the rest of the house has been restored, from roof to driveway. The Hunekes began renovations in the early 1990s, starting with the roof and restored it, room by room, until they finished the kitchen in 2003.
The bright colors and bold prints were chosen thanks to a Lenox "Buchanan" china pattern. Mary Kay had a plate and a book of wallpaper samples; the Waverly print with the striking reds was exactly what she was looking for.
And the rest is history.
Colonial Williamsburg to be exact.
The Hunekes have been to Williamsburg 10-12 times; they've lost count. Each time they visit, they bring new mementos back. Although now, if something comes in, something else has to go, "We're out of wall space", Jeff laments.
Mary Kay fell in love with the period as a child, "I was always fascinated" with Williamsburg. She explains original Williamsburg was much more bare bones "they didn't have carpeting and upholstery was rare". She calls their home "comforting colonial".
The house is furnished in cherry wood as well as some mahogany. The Queen Ann furniture is elegant and refined, yet quite comfortable.
Every room in the home has something handed down from prior generations. The china cabinet in the living room belonged to Mary Kay's mom, and the secretary to Jeffs mom. The lowboy and bench in the library were Jeff's grandmother's and date back to approximately 1910.
The breakwall between the library and the formal dining room is filled with Mary Kay's collectible Co-Boys. The Hummel-like figurines, by Goebel, depict the townspeople of Coburg, Germany, their hobbies and professions. The bay window in the dining room was added during the dining room redo. There is an elegant piecrust table in the corner of the room which belonged to Jeff's grandparents. Jeff has his own collectibles as well, a set of Williamsburg mugs perched atop the china cabinet.
The kitchen and half bath were custom built by master carpenter, (the late) Bob Gatesman. There are more Co-Boys on the window shelves and on the kitchen table is another collection of Mary Kay's, a bowl of Lenox glass fruit.
The interior design of the first floor, Mary Kay notes, is courtesy of a lot of time spent with both Hills Interiors and Youngs Interiors. The wallpaper was hung professionally by By Design.
Jeff states the furniture is "about 99% Ethan Allen and Pennsylvania House". The other 1% appear to be family antiques.
Many of the art prints downstairs are classic colonial reproduction paintings; Washington Crossing the Delaware and Rosa Heywood are just two.
Heading up the stairs to the second floor, there is a room off the first landing. Jeff says when they moved into the house there was simply "a door in the middle of the wall"; they added steps and use the room for storage.
The upstairs embraces subdued tones. Soft blues and greens, pink and ivory create impressive appeal. Much of the art on the second floor walls is cross-stich done by Mary Kay and framed with the help of Village Framers in Huron.
There are also many antique family photos intermingled with heirloom family treasures on the second floor. In the den is a chair from England belonging to Jeff's family and a wooden trunk which belonged to Mary Kay's grandma.
The spare bedroom is what Jeff and Mary Kay refer to as their "memory room". Jeff said the nightstand and dressers are from the bedroom set he used as a child. The room has a shed dormer built to match the dormer ceiling in the master bedroom. There is an Amish rocking chair in the room adding to the old-fashioned ambience.
The master bedroom is sweet and charming. The light color palate of rose, sage and cream contrasted by dark wood antiques is calm and serene. Nodding off should be effortless.
One of the masterpieces of this home is the upstairs bath. Built by a master craftsman who built Lyman boats, the same precision is easily seen in the Philippine mahogany of the cabinets and unique shower stall.
Hidden at the foot of the stairs is a certificate the Hunekes received in 1994 from the Huron Chamber of Commerce awarding them with the Annual Beautification Award.
The couple deserve it. They have taken what could well have been an average house and turned it into a colonial showplace. They knew exactly what they wanted and then spent the time and effort to get it just they way they envisioned.
Mary Kay said, "It was a lotta, lotta work." And before she even finished the sentence, Jeff added, "But it was a lot of fun." And they both nod and laugh.

Watch recorded weigh-ins from Bassmaster BASSfest on Chickamauga Lake.
On Day 4, Elite angler Davy Hite interviews the Delaware River finalists immediately after they come off the water. It's a moment when their excitement and emotions are at a peak.
The final two days of competition on Chickamauga Lake, don't miss War Room. Multiple times throughout the day B.A.S.S. personalities will update you on the action on the water and interview some of bass fishing's biggest stars.
War Room is updated during Day 3 and Day 4 of the tournament.
Darryl Worley and Chris Young to perform at the 2010 Bassmaster Classic at the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Center.
In this "Classic Moments" video, Kevin VanDam reflects on the intense pressure he felt fishing his first Bassmaster Classic.
Once again I proved that practice time doesn't correlate positively with tournament success. In fact, it might be just the opposite, at least in my case.
In this edition of 'Ask the B.A.S.S. Biologist,' Chris Horton answers viewer questions about improving bass populations and whether or not bass will bite a lure that imitates forage not found in that body of water.

Proposition 8 would take away same-sex couples right to marry in California. More than that, it would entrench discrimination and inequality in the California Constitution.
Regardless of how you feel about marriage for same-sex couples, I hope you will understand that it is not the place of constitutions to take away rights. Please help us here in California stop this initiative that would set back rights of people not just in California, but all across the United States. We can defeat Prop 8, but only with your help.

Anyone who thinks a small park in the middle of a city with a small footprint cannot supply thrills should visit Grona Lund.
Grona Lund intertwines old and new rides and sometimes crams them right on top of each other.
The new owners have made great strides to improve the park in recent years and hope to get approval for more changes in the near future. While Grona Lund has moved ahead with new rides they have also kept their iconic walkthrough haunted house and fun house (one of the best in the world). They also scatter posters containing the park's history, which is a nice touch since the park is situated in close proximity to many of Stockholm's historic areas.
|Grona Lund still maintains a very traditional amusement park feel. Until the completion of Twister (a Gravity Group woodie), Insane (the largest Intamin Zac Spin) is the wildest ride in the park. Many Schwarzkopf fans still love Jetline, and Vekoma has delivered an above-average inverted family coaster in Kvasten.
The footprint of the park is small so many of the rides are packed in closely, on top of each other, and intertwined. The park even uses the same tactic as Indiana Beach of having some rides (like the Flying Carpet and Wave Swinger) on piers extending over the water. Expansion of the park into a neighboring area is in the planning stages. Some of the other high-intensity rides are Katapulten (S&S Tower), Fritt Frat Tilt (Intamin Tilted Drop Tower with stand-up and sit down options), and Extreme (Mondial Space Roller).
The traditional feel is maintained in that the park still has a Tunnel of Love (Karlektunneln), Ghost Train (Bla Taget), haunted walkthrough with live actors (Spokhuset, slight upcharge) and possibly the best fun house in existence (Lustiga Huset).
|The park has many more sit-down restaurants where you can eat and drink at a leisurely pace than quick-service stands. Kresjey's is a BBQ restauant, but they also have amazingly fresh fish dishes. Kryddhyllan is in the heart of the park, great for people watching. Tyrol Bakficka is a bar serving German sausages and offers an outdoor porch for crowd watching. If you prefer your food on the run, there are two large food courts with many options. Kvasten Food Court has Thai food, fish and chips, burgers, hot dogs, and langos (fried dough). Rue du Maroc Food court sells pizza, kebabs, hot dogs, and Mexican dishes.
|Operating Season
|The park opens in late April for a couple of days each week, including weekends. In late May the park starts daily operations, which run through late August. From Late August to mid-September the park scales back to a couple of days a week.
|Access & Location
|The park can easily by reached by public transportation.
Bus and tram:
Cycle or walk:
By car:
|Nearby Lodging
|The park website lists a few hotel partners that offer park discounts.

Florida Keys, Miami
7 Reviews
7 Reviews
Key West really does deserve at least one full days visit but, if your time is limited and, are interested in at least catching a quick glimpse of the Keyes, here is a handy website:
Breakfast stop along the way (not included in the price) as they leave very early in the morning. Key West is approximately a 4 hour drive from Miami over long continous road which only runs one lane through most of the trip.
This is why hurricane evacuations are such a nightmare when inclement weather threatens!
Cost is approximately $70.00 for an adult ticket and includes all the major highlights of KeyWest and surrounding areas.
A hurried but quite complete tour.
The 160-mile drive from Miami to Key West is a great adventure. Just the fact that you are driving over miles and miles of turquoise blue water is reason enough to make this journey. In this case, the journey is as rewarding as the destination. Take your time going through the Keys. Make a few stops along the way to really capture the fact you're driving from island to island. The Middle Keys were really nice. Islamorada (sp?) has some great turnoffs where you can stop and enjoy the scene. The 7-mile Bridge (the longest bridge entirely over water, in the world I think) is fantastic. It'll be about 3 hours 'til you reach that point, but you'll know once you're on it. My only complaint about the drive is that there are no signs alerting of turnoffs. They just appear and you've driven past 'em with no way of turning back to it. I would've stopped more frequently if I knew where the viewpoints were. All-in-all, though, the drive to Key West is amazing and a must-do.
Is about a three hour drive from Miami down the overseas highway. The drive is unusual to say the least. I would recommend staying over at least the night as you won't enjoy the trip if you try to make down and back the same day. Weekends are very busy and traffic out of Miami on Saturday morning and back north on Sunday afternoon is very heavy. Your destination is Duvall street which you can easily walk from end to end. The shops and restaurants and bars are the attraction as is the history and ambiance of the place. The pace is quite a bit slower there after having been in Miami. You'll want to visit Sloppy Joes Saloon and Capt. Tony's (the original Sloppy Joes). You will also want to make it for the sunset at Mallory Square at the end of Duvall street.
The Florida Keys are definitely a Must See, but they aren't really in Miami. Miami is an hours drive from the farthrest north of the keys - Key Largo. Going all the way to Key West will take 4 hours or more by road.
Key Largo is advertised as the Dive Capitol of the World (which is a bit hyperbolic) and Islamorada is advertised as the Sports Fishing Capitol of the World (ditto), and Key West is the Southernmost City in the Continental US (which is true but the continental part is because Hawaii is farther south). It's a sub-tropical climate (not tropical in spite of what some advertising says).
Florida Keys is a great day trip, but if you have time – stay longer. It's a beautiful drive made for having the windows down.
In Key West, you can rent a bike and explore more – don't forget the Hemmingway House.
Go to Key West. Do a 'resort dive' scuba deal. Costs about $70 and takes about half a day. See the only living coral reef in North America. Next day, do a snorkeling trip that includes kayaking through a mangrove hammok.
It's beautiful, pretty quiet and peaceful, the Danger charter folks were really knowledgeable about the local ecosystem. And watching the sunset on the boat ride home is a nice bonus.
Take a drive from Miami over to the Keys . I drove about 4 hours from Miami to Key West and it was well worth it .
I saw the most amazing rainbow , longest one I had ever on my drive over one of many bridges .

Retired Episcopal Bishop Roger White dies
Retired Episcopal Bishop Roger White, who led the Episcopal Diocese of Milwaukee from 1985 to 2003, died Monday of complications from a brain aneurism. White, 71, had been hospitalized since early August.
White was well-known as an author and teacher and his work in ecumenism and with the poor in Haiti. He opposed the Episcopal Church's 2003 decision approving Gene Robinson as its first openly gay bishop, and predicted the schism that would split the church as a result.
A native of Yorkshire, England, White was ordained in the Church of England before transferring within the Anglican Communion to the Episcopal Church in the United States in 1969.
White served parishes in Illinois and Indianapolis before his election as bishop in 1984. He retired early in 2003 because of rheumatoid arthritis.
White is survived by his wife, Prudence, and three adult children.

I've published the demo source for my Deep Zoom, MultiScaleTileSource and the Mandelbrot Set post to my site at http://mikeo.co.uk/cs/files/8/silverlight/entry43.aspx. I also made some changes to the colouring algorithm.
Instead of using the simple "Escape Time" algorithm it now uses a refinement knows as the "Normalized Iteration Count" algorithm which reduces the banding artifacts. The calculation is more expensive though so the zoom / pan responsiveness has dropped off a bit. However, it does look nice.
The image on the left is the result of zooming in on the tiny area highlighted by the arrow on the right.

Kentucky coach John Calipari says he'll be looking for a working rotation in the season opener against Maryland on Friday night. The third-ranked Wildcats' latest group of top-level recruits will make its debut under New York's bright lights at the Barclays Center Classic in Brooklyn. The coach who masterfully guided a Kentucky squad led by freshmen to the national championship last year doesn't know what to expect from this new group that includes guard Archie Goodwin, forwards Nerlens Noel and Alex Poythress and center Willie-Cauley Stein. Calipari wants to leave the Big Apple with a win, but he really wants the Wildcats to develop an identity and more team chemistry while they're in the city.

Tennessee Drug Use

Heroin Use On Rise In Tennessee
Tennessee is among the states reporting a rise in heroin use.
Police and health officials say the abuse of prescription painkillers remains the state's biggest drug problem, but as prescription pain pills become more expensive and harder to get, Tennessee is seeing a resurgence of heroin use.
Michael Stanfill, of the Tennessee office of the federal Drug Enforcement Agency, says pill use and heroin use go hand-in-hand. Stanfill also says Mexican cartels are targeting pill addicts with heroin that is less expensive.
Officials with the Tennessee Health Department say that from fiscal year 2011 to 2013, the number of people seeking state-funded treatment for heroin increased from 217 to 396.

Need to know: CV cliches Why you can`t find a jobHF interviews
Canada-based RBC Capital Markets has finished top of the Australia Announced M&A League Table for the first half of 2012 owing to the 1 billion Australian dollar (US$1 billion) merger between gold miners St Barbara and Allied Gold Mining, announced on the last business day of the period.

Nope. Didn't install 8 in the first place. Have no intentions of using 8.1 outside of a VM used to ensure software I write is compatible.

Sweet the WIN+X menu now has "Network Connections" in there by default! They didn't add "Devices and Printers" though so I'm still going to have to modify the Win+X menu. Luckily the old Win+X Menu Editor works in 8.1 without requiring an update.

Network Connections is there for me on the 8.1 Preview, haven't modified it at all. Unless you are comparing from 8 and not 8.1 Preview.
Yeah, I'm saying it's there now. I think that's the one that wasn't there on 8.0. I always add two, device and printers and one other and I thought it was network connections.

Couldn't have said it better. It'd be really cool if I could just use my free WMC key to use 8.1. Without hacks/workarounds, after all, it was a free upgrade key. But hey, that's just my opinion. I'm extremely interested to see how well it would run on my hardware, because I have both 32 bit and 64 bit systems, and I have used 8 successfully on my 64 bit system. It's sort of a toss up for me right now.
I am using my WMC key with the 8.1 preview with no problems.

Considering the source of the leaks, It's pretty safe to say that these ISO's weren't tampered with if you get them from the source however. I'm already using it as my production OS on my system and it runs smooth and no hiccups, activated and everything. Seems pretty squeaky clean compared to the 8.1 Preview build.
About to do a clean install too, already tried on a spare hard drive and it works like a Charm.

This First Aid Guide was developed by the veterinary staff at Dr. Sherry Weaver's Animal Hospital of Towne Lake in Woodstock, GA.
Always use caution when approaching or handling an animal that is injured by bite wounds or another serious trauma. Dogs that are not normally aggressive may bite out of self-protective instincts if they are in pain. Use a muzzle if needed.
Flush the wound well with warm water, and try to clip fur from any wounds. It is important to note that bite wounds are a combination of penetrating and crushing damage. A small hole can mask severe tearing of tissues and bleeding hidden beneath the skin. Gently wrap any skin tears with bandaging material, and apply direct pressure to sites that display active bleeding.
Home first aid for bite wounds should be considered only as a first response. Evaluation by a veterinarian is very important for proper assessment and recovery. Bite wounds usually become infected, so it is very important to have a veterinarian assess any bite wound. Even superficial bite wounds have the potential to become seriously infected. Oral antibiotics may be needed. Surgery may be necessary to repair damage inflicted beneath the skin.Always seek veterinary care following first-aid attempts. Your veterinarian is the best source of information for your pet's specific needs. This information is provided for general reference and informational purposes only and should not be construed to be formal professional advice or the formation of a consultant-client relationship.
Cesar always makes sure he has Vetericyn Wound and Skin Care on hand just in case any of his dogs is hurt. It's non-toxic, doesn't sting and is safe even on puppies' skin, eyes and ears.
