samara is 5 wks early and is a very good sized baby for her age ( 6 pds 12 oz ) but I have some concerns and since her peds is out of town for 2 wks and i dont trust the other doc i was hoping to get some advise from some moms who may have been thru this before and are unfortunately familiar.
1. There are some eating problems, she holds alot of her formula in her mouth and when she burps she cries like it hurts her stomach and like she is gassy, she was spitting up brown stuff that the doc said was partially digested formula so we switched her to Nutramigen to help with that and it has stopped the vomiting but not the gassiness.
2. On her back above her butt is a small area that looks like the skin is just closing up around her spine ( it kind of looks like a closed area of the disease spina bifida) not sure if this is normal since she is an early baby or what.
3. and last but not least when I had her at 35 wks and 1 day they said that the placenta was 'old' and was about 40-42 wks old and i was very lucky that she was born when she was for the simple fact that the placenta would have shut down and stopped nourishing her and she could have died.
NOt sure if anyone can help me with these questions but this is a place to start for some answers. Thanks if you can or cant help.

This is a picture from December, when we took some hot cocoa to the park in a thermos with a few ceramic mugs and some Joan's gluten free bagels.
It is pretty chilly out again--the perfect time to enjoy a cup of homemade hot chocolate. Enjoy life chocolate chips, agave and coconut milk make a great gluten free/casein free hot cocoa. But we also have made hot cocoa by making a paste with cocoa and agave/sugar and adding coconut milk. Below are both recipes.
If some family members still consume dairy, you can use the same chocolate cocoa base with cow's milk instead of coconut milk. So Delicious Coconut Milk works well for a GFCF hot chocolate. I buy the coconut milk in cartons from Whole Foods Market but they sell it at Natural Frontier Market if it's too snowy to get downtown! Another option to make a dairy free hot chocolate is to use rice milk or water with a few tablespoons of canned coconut milk.
Hot Chocolate Recipe (with GFCF option)
2 tablespoons Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips (GFCF) or chocolate chips of choice
1/2 or 1 tablespoon agave or sugar
pinch of salt
1 cup of So Delicious Coconut Milk or "milk" of choice
Melt chocolate in microwave for 10 seconds at a time until melted in mug. Stir in sugar or agave. Heat milk until steaming. Add to melted chocolate for a super creamy chocolaty treat. Add a marshmallow for extra credit.
Hot Cocoa Recipe (with GFCF option)
2 teaspoons organic cocoa
1 Tablespoon sugar or agave
tiny pinch of salt
few drops of vanilla
1 cup milk of choice--we use So Delicious Coconut Milk
Make paste from cocoa, agave or sugar, pinch of salt and vanilla. Heat milk until steaming. Add slowly to paste. Serve with a marshmallow for extra fun.

WILLIAMSON - A non-profit organization that was established in 2010 with a mission to eliminate hunger in the Tug Valley area has a new home within the City limits of Williamson.
The "House of Hope", a 501c3 organization that was created to provide support services to those less fortunate was formerly located in the Town of Delbarton. Although the dedicated volunteers were pleased with their surroundings, the majority of their $20,000 a year funding provided by the Mingo County Commission was being utilized for rent and utility bills.
"The commission gives the House of Hope $20,000 a year to operate," stated Commissioner David Baisden. "The rent and utilities cost approximately $18,500 a year. This left no meat on the bone at all to use for the purchase of food and other supplies they pass out to those in need. They were basically using every penny they had to just exist."
"I hated to see the organization have to relocate, but attempts were made to decrease their monthly costs and were unsuccessful. After the county purchased the former Coal Field-CAP building, we offered space to the House of Hope and they gladly accepted."
Governed by a local Board of Directors, the non-profit agency has opened a food distribution center that will meet the nutrition needs of the families residing in the local area. Through collaboration of area churches, businesses, government agencies and individual contributions, the organization hope to reach their overall goal to eliminate hunger in the Tug Valley Region of Mingo County. Without those who have partnered with them, Chairman June Jude stated this would be an impossible task and would not be sustainable.
Jude and her co-chairman Oliver Spradlin work diligently each and every day to meet the needs of those who require assistance. On the 4th Monday of each month, boxes of food that include frozen meat, fruit, canned vegetables, potatoes, cereals, macaroni and cheese, spaghetti fixings and other items are passed out or delivered to area homes.
"We know that toward the end of each month families who rely on food stamps find themselves scraping the bottom of the barrel to provide meals," said Jude. "Our goal is to give them enough food supplies to see them through until the first of the next month."
"With our overhead costs now being at a much lower amount than when we were in Delbarton, we're hoping to be able to assist more people in need than before," remarked Spradlin. "We are so grateful to the County Commission for all of their help in getting the House of Hope relocated to Williamson, and for their contributions throughout the past 3 years."
"We couldn't have made it without them."
The House of Hope plans to meet their goals by soliciting cash contributions to cover the administrative and food purchases, and will also conduct food drives involving private and public partners. They will solicit food through government programs and submit request for additional funding to public and private foundations and government agencies.
Clothing donations are also accepted by the group, and are then distributed as requests are received. Although the House of Hope does not have enough space to accept furniture and appliance donations, they do have a list of items that are needed. Jude stated that if you have items such as these that you are wanting to give away, you may call 304-235-1678 and she will attempt to match them up with someone who has asked for that particular item and arrange to have them picked up.
The current sponsors of the House of Hope are E.L. Robinson Engineering, BB&T, the Regional Church of God, the Housing Authority of Mingo County, the Mingo County Commission, Coal Field CAP, VLB Consultants, Inc., the Pie Church of God, the Nolan Freewill Baptist Church, the Maher United Baptist Church, the Chattaroy Church of God, the WV Dept. of Agriculture, Charles and Doris Pack, Debbie and Earl White, the Jamie Carte Ministries, the South Ridge Freewill Baptist Church, TRAMCO, Bill Snodgrass, the Pigeon Creek Women's Group, the Princeton Pike Church of God, George Swain State Farm Insurance, Vanita Faye Cantrell, WSAZ Children's Charities, Daniel Webb and the Pilgrim United Baptist Church.
If you would like more information on receiving donations from the House of Hope or to volunteer to help out, you are asked to call June Jude at 304-235-1678. The organization is now located on the 1st floor of the former Coal Field CAP Building on Alderson Street, above the former Williamson High School going toward the Williamson Memorial Hospital.

I would try to see someone from a different practice, ideally.
One thing that differed between the different MFM's I saw besides their opinions on lovenox was that with my MFM, I will only always see "my" MFM. With the other MFM practice, they rotate MFM's so I would never (or not typically) see the same MFM two appointments in a row. That would have made me crazy! (One of my friends had an OB practice who did that with her first pregnancy, it was a mess. One doctor would change her due date. At the next appointment a different doctor would change it back. Etc.) Did you happen to ask or find out about that?
I think it's a little unusual that the MFM will be co-managing but also will do the delivery in a normal pregnancy. If you had a typical c-section and not a classical/vertical incision on your uterus, I don't think it would be too hard to find an MFM who would be more okay with a VBAC. I do think they prefer 2 years between pregnancies after a c-section for a vbac, but in our area we have some pretty vbac-friendly mfm's, since repeated c-sections will ultimately limit how many children you can have without raising the risks of repeated sections. (With a vertical/classic incision, they never consider VBAC an option.)
The website http://www.smfm.org is a good resource for finding MFM names in your area, at least.
Oh, and 18 months between conceptions sounds more like the norm, I thought you meant 18 months from the time you delivered Gracie until the time you can conceive again. I've heard anything from 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, between pregnancies, so that falls right in the middle with about 9 months between pregnancies. (My MFM also thought the same thing about weight loss and she was right, I actually had a healthier pregnancy at a heavier weight than I was at with my first preg.)

Things I liked:This gun is AMAZING!! Couldn't have asked for a better product. The bolt is just right, not to hard, not to easy, and I love shooting this gun.
Things I would have changed:The bipod tends to come loose, and you have to retighten it.
What others should know:If you are looking for a good sniper and want to be that one on the battlefield who gets everyone else out, this is your gun!
Things I liked:Heavy duty feeling, acceptable FPS, decent accuracy, and ease of upgrading.
Things I would have changed:Include the upgraded spring.
What others should know:This rifle rocks! My son hit me from over 150FT and the BB still had enough zing to create a nice welt!
Things I liked:Smooth action, pretty good trigger, shoots very hard with spring upgrade. With upgrade ,20s not so accurate. I use .28s & .30s. These are good out to 150 ft for a head size target. They slow down the fps but make up for it with more range and accuracy
Things I would have changed:Not really anything.
What others should know:Make sure you use VERY high quality BBs. I use Mad Ball .30s and TSD .28s.

Wow, you got that up here quick, since my eMail. :-P
Never thought of the Apple TV. It is odd to see that, as it's not appearing on all apps in the app store, but it is quite interesting...
I think the best guess is the Apple TV, iPhone 5, or some other iteration, as I don't think it would be any unannounced iDevice. At first I thought it was for Macs, but then realized that we have the Mac App Store...
Compatible with iX?
The iTunes App Store is currently listing apps as compatible with "ix", or more exactly -- "compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and ix.Mac.MarketingName". That's almost certainly a glitch of some kind in the system and I expect Apple will fix it asap but it does make for a fun question -- if there is indeed an "ix" in the pipeline, what could it be? An app-compatible Apple TV? Cross-compatible Mac Apps? A 5 to 7-inch device? Something we haven't imagined yet?
While Apple sees to its stray text, give us your best guess -- what's "ix"?
[Thanks Ethan!]

Compatible with iX?
Wow, you got that up here quick, since my eMail. :-P
dude thank god u guys posted this i was trippen out about it...
holograms. iGrams.
help us obi iKenobi, you're our only hope.
Ummm I'm sure there's something better to post then a glitch we are suppose to guess at. Seriously? Lolol
I think this device is going to appear to be some sort of new portable computer, an "iDevice' running OS X in my opinion. Whatever it may be, I'm pretty damn excited about it! :-)
C'mon, guys. Yes, it's placeholder text. Yes, it's in the right format.
Most likely it's an error-- not an error of omission, indicating that there is a specific, as-yet-unrevealed device, but an error in editing the template text. The text probably reads "compatible with X, Y and Z". Instead of correctly placing the last device, the iPad, into the spot for Z, they added a comma after Y, inserted the value for Z, leaving a comma and a portion of the template remaining.
Does Apple have devices in development that are unannounced? You bet! Is this any clue to any of them? No, probably not. Slightly more likely that it's the Mac App store.
I would kindly say this would be the unreleased Tablet people have been rumoring about.. the so called "iPad 3" could actually be a tablet device running some sort of mac.. Apple got granted a patient for 'Spaces on a tablet device' in the images in the filing were windows from Mac OS X lion..
Narcogen, not sure I agree. I'm a developer, and iX.Mac.MarketingName reads like a key that's supposed to be used to look up a user-friendly value to put there. You might use it to show different text for different languages, for example. It looks like the code decided there is a device to put in there, but because that device wasn't supposed to show up yet, there's no text for it. Since the text there is a list of devices, and the last one has "and" in front of it, I doubt they have a different template for when there are 1, 2, 3, etc. devices. They probably put together all the devices in the list with commas, and add "and" before the last one.
yep, it's formatted like a text resource key, we do the same sort of thing on our IBE where if it fails to resolve the key it prints the key itself
Great review! This is exactly the type of article that should be shared around the internet. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this article higher!
Nice review! This is truly the type of blog post that should be shared around the internet. Sad on the search engines for not positioning this article higher!
Yes, sad on the search engines!
It's the new prepaid iPhone. Remember a few months back they mentioned how they wanted to get to the prepaid market? Notice how iOS 5 didn't get announced? It's cause the prepaid model is optimized for 4.0 and the major overhaul coming with 5.0 would create the need for updated hardware. They wanna keep this thing cheap.
A couple days ago, an italian news website published something about an Apple HD TV sooner or later...

This community is for discussions relating to emotional, physical, sexual, social, spiritual, spousal, and verbal abuse. Please note, this community is not monitored by professionals, rather questions will be answered by other members of the community.
Understand how this cycle efficiently and completely destroys you:
The saddest thing of all: This insidious repetitious cycle will break you so smoothly, there's an excellent chance you won't even realize you've lost yourself. For some people it may take years... but it will break you.
|Each time you take a spin on the Cycle of Abuse you lose a little piece of yourself. You never quite make it back up to your top again. Oh I know, you may think and believe you have... but you haven't. Every cycle of abuse takes you lower and lower and lower until one day, there is nothing left of you. You just don't recover. Look closely at yourself and your life... feel your feelings... listen to your own heart... reach into your spirit. I now ask you...
Are you really the same person you were before you began riding The Cycle of Abuse?
Spending more and more time at work, not wanting to come home
Low self-esteem, feelings of worthlessness
Depression, thoughts of suicide
Emotional problems, shame, emotional highs and lows, emotional numbness
Illness - physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually
Increased alcohol or drug use, addictions
Withdrawal from real life into an alternative reality - perhaps the Internet
Are you addicted to drama?
If so, you may find it extremely difficult to get off the roller coaster or avoid becoming involved with abusive partners. If you don't recognize that you are addicted to drama, and do some inner work with yourself, you will likely find yourself continually back in abusive relationships. So, how do you know if you are addicted to drama? One indicator: You may find those gentle and loving women will seem boring... "She's just too nice."
[ Support for drama addiction, setting personal boundaries and self-esteem are discussed under "The Self-Esteem Factor" ]

To speed up your computer, it's always a good idea to defragment your hard-drive at least once a week. Windows has a defragmenting tool based on a commercial software, but it's too slow.
Fortunately, there are better alternatives. Auslogics Disk Defrag is a freeware for Windows 2000/ XP/ Vista with a simple interface, that runs much faster than the built-in defragmenter. You can't defragment more than one partion at a time or set advanced options, but that also means it's easy to use. The program doesn't use too many resources, so you can continue your work.
Another good option is Power Defragmenter, a GUI for Contig (a program developed by SysInternals). The software allows you to defragment only a file, a folder, or a disk. You won't see a beautiful map of your disk. It's just a command-line utility that does its work quietly.
If you're wondering why Windows needs defragmenting and other operating systems like Linux don't, this article is a simple answer.

We all do have our own biases, and yours are apparent here, as I would assume are my own. I do wonder, had you taken such great amounts of time and energy and devoted them to something besides your search for recreational drugs, what could you have accomplished for this world.
What I can't figure out is --why would you want to poison yourself that way?
Obviously, you can have these same mystical experiences of God and Jesus without drugs. I recognized some of their experiences that they had while high but that I've had while sober.
You have to ask yourself--why are we all so devoted to Jesus? Do you think it is just an intellectual hobby?
Welp, no one answered the original question.
DNA was dicovered on a low dose of LSD
I've read some of the stories on the website you gave us, and it is remarkable how many have deep experiences of God, and even Jesus, under the effects of 'mushrooms.'
But, even so, they have no way to really know what they are taking, the dosage, or predict the effect, and they also seem to mix it with other drugs. Some people have horrible experiences.
Obviously, you can have these same mystical experiences of God and Jesus without drugs. I recognized some of their experiences that they had while high but that I've had while sober.
Polymerase Chain Reaction"Would I have invented PCR if I hadn't taken LSD? I seriously doubt it. I could sit on a DNA molecule and watch the polymers go by.""Back in the 1960s and early '70s I took plenty of LSD. A lot of people were doing that in Berkeley back then. And I found it to be a mind-opening experience. It was certainly much more important than any courses I ever took."(Kary Mullis, Ph.D)
Regaurdless of the reasoning that I had a bad home life or that I had low self esteem or countless other reasons someone can say that caused the addiction, the fact remains is that drugs are most often turned to when trying to self medicate ourselves out of misery.The weblinks, a handful of testamonies about their great life on drugs does not change the realities of life. The closeminded person is the one who uses drugs themselves and continually looks for reasoning to ignore many realities of a problem that is prevalent in our country.
Good post Fire Walker!

Woman in custody in NYC subway shoving death
NEW YORK (AP) A woman is in custody in the death of a man who was shoved in front of a speeding subway train, and she made statements implicating herself, New York City police said Saturday.
Detectives questioned her but arent releasing the 31-year-old suspects name until she is formally charged, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said in a brief statement. Among other things, investigators were arranging for witnesses to positively identify the woman in custody as the attacker, police said.
Sunando Sen, a 46-year-old Queens resident who was born in India and ran a printing shop, died Thursday night when a woman who had been muttering to herself on a train platform in Queens suddenly knocked him on the tracks as a train entered the station.
The woman fled after the attack. Police released security camera video showing her running from the station.
The attack was the second time this month that someone was pushed to their death in a New York City subway station. A homeless man was arrested in early December and accused of shoving a man in front of a train in Times Square. He is awaiting trial, and claimed he acted in self-defense.
Further details on how police managed to identify the suspect in Sens death were not immediately available.
Investigators had been following up on tips from people who had seen the security video and were checking homeless shelters and psychiatric units in an attempt to identify the woman.
It was unclear whether she had any connection to Sen. Witnesses told police the two hadnt interacted on the platform as they both waited for the train.

McCain hosts gun-focused town hall in Phoenix
PHOENIX -- Sen. John McCain held a town hall Wednesday in Phoenix that focused almost entirely on gun control in America.
A crowd of about 150 appeared to be evenly divided by gun supporters and opponents. McCain told the crowd that Congress will not pass an assault weapons ban. Karen Teves, whose son Alex was killed in the Aurora, Colo. movie theater shooting, said she was not pleased with McCain's assertion that an assault weapons ban is out of the question.
"What he doesn't realize that 81 percent of Americans, 71 percent of gun owners and 60 percent of NRA members support renewing the assault weapons ban," she said.
McCain did not say if he supports or opposes universal background checks for all gun buyers which many believe will close the so-called gun show loophole.
"Obviously we have two goals: Keeping guns out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill," he said. "We need to take measures to achieve that."
That assault weapons ban was signed into law by former President Bill Clinton in 1994 and expired in 2004.
At a Sun Lakes town hall Tuesday, McCain was http://ktar.com/?sid=1611668&nid=29" >grilled about immigration reform. It was a much calmer town hall on Wednesday.

Do you have to install the towel car? If you don't what are the width dimensions ?
It took several hours to put together, but I took my time and it went well. The back piece came with a crack in it, but Overstock did a great job of communicating with me and replacing the cracked piece. The top is nice and heavy. My only complaint would be that the wheels don't really attach, making it hard to move. Not a problem for me since I bought it to use as an island, but still not quite right....

Love my cart
It took several hours to put together, but I took my time and it went well. The back piece came with a crack in it, but Overstock did a great job of communicating with me and replacing the cracked piece. The top is nice and heavy. My only complaint would be that the wheels don't really attach, making it hard to move. Not a problem for me since I bought it to use as an island, but still not quite right.Read More
Director of hosptality
Fits our needs very well. We use it as a coffee station. Have had a number of compliments about it.Read More
Perfect Kitchen Island
We left the casters off of ours to make it look more like furniture, less like a cart. It is a perfect fit in our kitchen. We are using it as an island. (The back is finished so it doesn't have to be against a wall.) The height is still great, even without the casters. Though it did take a little time to put together, it was well worth it. Highly recommended.Read More
Functional and Sturdy
Loved it for my apartment, easy to put together, sturdy and super functional.Read More
A great fit to the kitchen
This is more than a cart, it is a piece of kitchen furniture. It took about 45 minutes to assemble, and fits quite nicely in our kitchen. The top is real wood and really makes the unit appear to be worth more than the money we spent.Read More
Looks great, but...
This kitchen cart looks just as depicted when assembled, and by all appearances is a quality piece of furniture. However, there were three major flaws in fabrication that are unforgivable for a piece that costs this much. First, the back panel is not sized correctly; when assembled, there is about a half-inch gap between the top of the panel and the top of the cart. This is not terrible since the gap is in the back of the cart and is only visible when the door is opened. Second, the magnetic bar is not actually attracted to the magnetic catch, but this can be addressed by replacing the bar with a 2" zinc mending brace that can be purchased at a hardware store. The third and most serious flaw is that the drawer runners were pre-installed incorrectly so that they were not aligned with each other and therefore the drawer did not close properly. I was able to detach the drawer runner, drill new holes for screws at a distance of 7/8" from the original holes, and re-install it so that the drawer closed, but since the cart was already mostly assembled by the time I noticed this problem, it was quite a hassle. Now that the cart is assembled, it looks good, but I don't think the price is justified for a product that is this poorly fabricated.Read More
Well worth it
First, I have to admit I was shocked at the high prices of kitchen storage units in general. I shopped around quite a bit before finding this unit on Overstock, and although $$$ still seems high to me, it was by far the best price I found. I am very happy with this piece of furniture - it has clean lines, a nice solid butcher block top, and is just big enough to provide good storage and work space without taking up too much room. I put it together by myself and the directions were easy to follow. It took me about 2 hours.Read More
rustic beauty
I adore this kitchen cart. I have a rustic style kitchen and with the simple and classic design, the white color and the butcher block top fits in perfectly. The price is really affordable, and once arrived I fell in love with it. It is large enough, really practical with the wheels and simple to use and store my kitchen accessories. Great quality on great price.Read More
Denver White Modern Kitchen Cart
I purchased this for my parent's kitchen, and it really is a lovely piece. It is a great size as it does not take up much space, but has enough surface area for prep work. The top wood surface is nice, however, I was expecting it to be butcher block as mentioned in the description. It is butcher block in the sense that it is wood strips glued together with a polyurethane coat overtop. I was thinking it may be more of a butcher block surface that my parents could use as a chopping block if they wanted. It is still nice, just not what I expected. The other thing is the interior of the cabinet has a strong glue smell, but we're hoping that goes away eventually.Read More
so glad I found it
If you need some extra work place in your kitchen or just you want some storage place then this is the right choice for you. I know because it was for me and Im very grateful to overstock that they sell such kitchen karts. You dont know how much extra work it saves when you just pull and push it around your kitchen. The shipment time was fair but the service was spotless.Read More

i saw this product on another site and it says that the height is 41.5" and the width is 35.25". Your description has the opposite listed. Can you please confirm which one is correct?
It's the opposite - 35" high and 41" wide.
Does the width listed in the spec include the towel bar attachment?
Hi gowned, our measurements are for the overall unit therefore include the towel bar. Thanks for shopping with us.
Yes. I opted not to install the towel bar to save a couple of inches, now the max dimensions are:39 5/16 inches
What is the width without the towel bar attachment?
Hello mgriego7, the towel bar attachment only extends about 5 inches from the kitchen cart edge. Thank you for shopping with us.
I did not get any assembly instructions with my package but managed to put it together quite easily except for inserting the drawer - I just can't figure out what should be a simple thing! how can I get an emailed copy of the relevant page for this?
Hello osprey810, we apologize for the inconvenience. We will email you the assembly instructions. Thank you for contacting us.
The casters will not lock into place? Shouldn't they lock into place with a small bit of force? Even using a mallet won't do the job? Are they the wrong size?
I just put mine together this weekend - even without any supplied assembly instructions (very annoying) and I thought the casters didn't fit either but with a good bit of pressure they did all eventually snap into place - try turning cart onto wheels and pushing from the top.

I think with a ring made of 4130 tig welded in and recut of the case hole it could work. the only issue that could be a problem is the extractor. I dont know if a -74 extractor will fit a -47 bolt head. what do ya think??? muttman

Show Ringhotels on the Germany Map
True to their motto, Ringhotels members offer high standards of quality, attentive service and outstanding cuisine. This hotel alliance unites around 130 independent, family-run hotels in the upper range of the three-star to four-star segment.
Ringhotels have a charm all of their own. Most have been owned and run by a single family for many years and offer a mix of the traditional and the modern. Ringhotels can be found throughout Germany and depending on their facilities and location they are perfect for professionally run conferences, family-friendly holidays, lavish spa getaways and city breaks. Member hotels often have a long tradition of serving excellent food. Over one third are recommended for their outstanding cuisine in the leading hotel and restaurant guides – and many have starred ratings or the equivalent.
40 years Ringhotels
On 25 January 1973, the cooperation of the Ringhotels was founded. It is today - over 40 years later - the largest alliance of independent hotel owners in Germany.
Hotels steeped in history
The "Gast im Schloss" hotels, also part of the Ringhotels alliance, offer luxury fit for a prince amid fine historical surroundings. With great care and a respect both for tradition and for modern needs, the owners of the hotels have turned medieval manors, country estates, castles and delightful, old-quarter houses into holiday destinations of distinction.
Meetings and events
More than 100 Ringhotels throughout Germany offer tailored solutions for conferences, meetings and functions – from elegant receptions to large-scale events, for budgets large and small. Whether for conferences or seminars, business Ringhotels offer a professional events service, the latest in communications technology and customised supporting programmes.
German Castles
Since 2007 the "German Castles" hotel label is incorporated into Ringhotels. Here guests can stay the night, enjoying the pleasure of a unique ambience, where tradition and modernity meet in perfect synthesis. As predominantly owner-managed, traditional establishments offering superior gastronomy, they are the ideal addition to the Ringhotels portfolio.
A Powerful European Presence
Ringhotels and "Private Hotels Europe" – www.privatehotelseurope.com - approximately 300 private, individually run hotels under one umbrella.
Ringhotels have joined with like-minded partners in four European countries to form "Private Hotels Europe". Being a member of the only example of this kind of "Co-operation of Co-operations" within Europe allows Ringhotels to offer its guests a comprehensive network of around 300 private, individually operated hotels throughout Europe. Ringhotels – as a strong partner among the five hotel corporations involved – is also proud to be actively contributing to good international business relations.
This network includes:
Champagne Dreams – a sparkling treat
A special pleasure: Ringhotels "Champagne Dreams" – a sparkling Champagne experience brought to you by Ruinart, the most traditional makers of fine Champagne. Only available at Ringhotels, each individual property offers guests an individual "Champagne Dreams" package.
All packages consist of two nights' accommodation, including breakfast and dinner, with one of the dinners being a finedining meal and the other a regional special. Guests can for example enjoy typical regional events such as city tours, museum visits, coach rides or excursion flights. The entire experience is crowned by a sparkling treat from the House of Ruinart.

Culbreath: Stan Van in DetroitWritten by Matt 'Shaggy' Culbreath | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Tom Gores is not messing around with the Detroit Pistons.
After buying the Pistons in 2011, Gores has never been shy about making big moves. He's already hired and fired two head coaches, along with sweeping Joe Dumars out the door as team president. And just this week, he's filled two vacancies with one job: hiring former Miami and Orlando head coach Stan Van Gundy to both jobs.
Strong hire by Gores — much like the Cleveland Browns bringing Johnny Manziel into the fold, it brings eyeballs to town. It also brings a proven track record to the sideline, even if he doesn't have any front office experience. But it's every coach's dream to have full roster control, and SVG is the kind of guy who could wield that power responsibly.
He's got his work cut out for him, though. The Pistons haven't seen any semblance of success in what seems like ages. We knew it was the end of an era when Chauncey Billups was traded away for Allen Iverson in 2008 (and I don't think anybody except Dumars thought it would work), but nobody was prepared for the free fall that took place in the Motor City. From the Eastern Conference Finals to the lottery in a two-year span? Four out of the past five years with more than 50 losses? It's no wonder that a New York Times study of Facebook data shows Toledo's biggest fanbase doesn't belong to the Pistons or Cavs, but the friggin' Heat and Lakers.
There are a lot of people who think this is set-up for failure. Who say that since the coach has to be involved with the nitty gritty of the team, he can't also see the big picture of building the team. He can't see the forest because he's in the forest. It's a legitimate argument. But Stan Van is a great basketball mind, so I think he could be the guy who could pull it off. Not to mention, it's not as if he'll be on an island. Surround him with the right front office assistants, and they could do some of the legwork in Detroit while he's with the team in Chicago.
The naysayers also look to the recent list of names that have come to Detroit, particularly under Gores' ownership. Gores' brought in Lawrence Frank for a couple of years, then replaced him with Maurice Cheeks. Mo lasted 50 games before being shown the door. The argument is that Gores is just flashing another big name in front of the fans, without an eye to whether or not it'll actually work. But the records speak for themselves, I think. In Frank, you had a man who had some postseason success in his first few years at New Jersey. In Cheeks, you had a coach who never made it past the first round of the postseason, going 5-11 in his three appearances there. Considering the NBA is the type of league you can make the posetseason with a losing record, and that's not a ringing endorsement.
In Stan Van's history, the only year he missed the playoffs was the year he left the Miami Heat mid-season. Yeah, his last two years in Orlando weren't exactly the greatest (both first-round exits), but his final year with the Magic was the only year his team didn't manage to win more than 40 games. Every year he coached, he finished above .500.
Gores didn't buy the Pistons for a tax writeoff. He obviously wants the team to succeed. He may be a bit quick on the trigger finger, but he has to be. Fans in the Motor City are becoming more indifferent by the minute. When was the last time you heard someone proudly hollar "DEEEETROIT BASKETBAAAALL"? I had to look it up to see if that guy was still the announcer at the Palace. (For the record, he is.) No, a coach isn't going to put butts in the seats. But putting a winner like Gundy simultaneously in the front office and the sideline is going to bring the kind of talent that'll bring the fans in. It's all on the big man now. Let's see what he has.

I was able to get one ordered after about 1 1/2 hours as well
How is your new iPad pre-ordering going?
In the tradition and spirit of any new product launch, pre-orders are failing spectacularly for most. The pre-order page went up shortly after Apple's iPad event and many users haven't been able to get past the first few pages before a time out occurred or the Apple Store app crashed.
After 90 painstaking minutes of hitting refresh and several time outs, I was able to finally get a new iPad into my cart. About 10 tries to get to the checkout later, I finally had a processed order. Some users still don't appear to be having any luck.
Did you get your pre-order through, are you still trying, or have you given up? Hit the link below and let us know your pre-order status. And while you wait, check out the rest of our iPad event coverage while you relentlessly hit refresh and wait for your order to finally go through.

How is your new iPad pre-ordering going?
i'm afraid of getting screwed with the pre order. So many people have preordered in the past and not had one on the day of the launch!
Keep in mind, so many people also received theirs early. I thought it would be fun to buy my iPhone 4 on the day of launch at an Apple Store. What was I thinking, right?! Yeah, well... Days before the iPhone 4 release date, people who opted to have theirs shipped were already receiving them.
So... the moral of the story is, one never knows.
I don't see the huge fuss over a refreshed iPad 2. You Apple fanboys/girls are wasting your time and money over nothing. Alteast be smart and wait till after this pointless rush is over then preorder. You iSheeps never think when it comes to a new Apple product do you. How sad...
Piss off fandroids boy, and go wait on ur cheap iPad clown aka galaxy note 10.1 with ur stylus. So 1996 hahaha. Why u in here? This is an I site, ur not welcome.
I tried buying online, but the page kept crashing. So, I tried calling Apple to place my order. They're so busy, I didn't even get put on hold. I was simply told they were unable to take my call and thanked for calling. So, I went back to the website. It took ages, but I THINK my order went through. I even got an order number. The final page said I'd receive a confirmation email, but none has arrived.
3rd gen iPad orders must be through the roof.
I bit the bullet and ordered! Only took 3 tries from cart to checkout!
Mine went through after and hour and 30 minutes of hitting F5. I had no luck from my PC, I then used my iPad2 and it went through smooth (thank goodness)!! Now the LOOOOOONG wait till the 16th!!
I got one, but it took a lot of work. I was hitting it on my computer and iPhone. A couple times I got really close to finalizing the order on my phone while the site on my computer still said the store was down.
I eventually pulled it off on my computer, but I went through the checkout screens a few times before it finally worked.
I ended up with the model I wanted (black 64GB 4G AT&T) and I have my confirmation email.
Ordered mine after refreshing for two hours. LOL. Got the ATT 64gb black wifi+4G.
I got mine, only took about an hour. This was much smoother for me than when I order then 4s. This will be my first iPad, and I just can't wait for its arrival.
Just ordered my black wifi 32gb
Took about 25 min. Not too bad, considering it would have taken me a whole day on line at the apple store!
Got mine ordered after about 2 hours of trying White 32gb 4g cant wait till next Friday!
Finally i did it After 3 hours trying now it worths the time! :D
Believe it or not, by the time i got to my cart, the quantity recorded was "19" iPads! (on my google chrome) and 6 iPads on my safari! O.o i was like WTF?!?!
I guess when there is an error occurred, the website does record the choices made bt the customers!
FIUUUUH so glad i made it! :D
ordered - iPad white 32gb + AppleCare :) cant wait for this!! :D
never have had any white apple device before. i hope white looks good.
It seems that no matter how well Apple is prepared for the onslaught, they will never have enough processing power and bandwidth to handle all of us who try to order the instant that a new iPad or iPhone becomes available for pre-order.
I started trying to order when the Apple site went live at 12:45PM mtn time, and it took an hour and 10 minutes to get the order completed. Most often it would fail after I entered my Apple ID and password, and would make me start over.
I had to complete my order on my iPad 2 via Safari, since I couldn't sit around home all day hitting refresh on my Macbook Pro. The Apple Store App on my iPhone was crashing too much as well, so I had to go to Apple's website in the iPad browser.
Got mine a few hours ago. Being at school, I had an exceptionally hard time trying to even get a strong internet connection. I tried with the Apple Store app on my iPhone for about an hour over AT&T, then again on a friends Verizon 4G hotspot. No go. I finally switched to a school computer and managed to bag a 16GB WiFi iPad in white. Looking forward to next week Wednesday!
Wqs able to get mine ordered at 2:45pm central time.,confirmation arrived,at 3:05pm central time.
Ordered around 3:30 EST with no problems. Received my confirmation about 20 mins later. 32 GB WiFi. I couldn't decide between the 32 and 64 GB model. I made a quick decision in order to get my order though. Figured I could think about until March 16. I may be returning for a 64 GB model. :)
This is the first time I went nuts on the day of announcement. I have been waiting for this one to arrive..... Waited till a little later in the day (5pm) I ordere the 32gb Black Wifi........I also found someone on Craigslist with the Navy Blue Leather cover for $40 new.....My first Ipad ever...very psyched! Also, ordering online I feel is the way to go....No lines..
Same here. No email yet.
Gave up on ordering through the website, used the Apple Store App on my phone, and it went right through. However, in one of my earlier attempts on the website, apparently the order went through but I never received a confirmation page - because right now I have two on order! Doh. Can't cancel the duplicate yet either because they haven't started processing the orders.
After an hour n a Half at about 330 I was able to order my new iPad! My boyfriend refreshed the page every 5 seconds! I was shocked that we got through I kept telling him to hurry before the site crashed lol I received a confirmation email about 20 min later! I am excited to receive my iPad march 16!! :)
I ordered at 530 central. No email yet. I placed 2 separate orders.
Just managed it after about an hour of timeouts etc using my imac, ordered a white 32gb wi-fi model and a smart cover. I had a white ipad 2 and well prefer it to the black one. I sold my ipad 2 and its smart cover expecting a new cover for the new ipad but no so now I have to buy another one grrr!!!
Not got confirmation email yet. Of course the real test will be when the 16th finally arrives and its in my hands!!! Seems a bit too good to be true that I actually managed to get a preorder in so as the saying goes I'll believe it when I see it!!! Good luck everybody
Just ordered mine online with ease.
Waiting on email confirmation...
Did anyone else engrave theirs? =P
I didn't... but I probably should have.
Getting it engraved hadn't even occurred to me until I got to that page on in the purchase process. I didn't get it engraved because I will sell it in a year or two when I upgrade. But, what I should have done was have it engraved with something simple but unique as an extra security measure.
I got or about an hour an half. Can't wait till next friday :)
I never got an E-mail but you are right, I see a $763 transaction on my account authorized to Apple (Got a 32 4G AT&T, white), and i got an order number on the confirmation page. so I guess there is a huge possibility my order went through.
It took me about 90 minutes to get my order in. Next Friday will be great . Watch it not show up untill the end of the day.
After trying for probably 3 hours total - and one (I thought) failed attempt to process my order froze and crashed...I have now rec'd confirmation emails for 2 separate orders. I am half afraid to cancel one - in case it jinxes the other one. I may ask if anyone wants to buy the extra from me at work tomorrow. Happy to have gotten one. I was on a mission, for sure.
I watched the live blog and tried to order it immediately after the press conference, but the store wasn't up. So I waited and finally the store was up (kept checking every 5 minutes). Then that's were it got annoying. The site kept crashing. After an hour of trying, it finally went through all the way with a confirmation.
Now here's the funny thing. I check the site now and its zipping along with no problems. I can easily add one to my cart and checkout if I wish and it still has the delivery date of March 16. It looks like Apple stocked up very well for the launch. I could have avoided the hassle if I knew the ordering process would be this easy at this time of day. You live and you learn.
Tried ordering mine around 2 with no luck. The site kept crashing! I got close a couple of times and then i got to the engraving.... I decide hey wth sounds like a good idea plus its free buuut then as i was checking out i decided not a good idea just in case i plan on selling. Got rid of the engraving (btw the engraving takes quite some time) and placed my order. All in all probably took me like an hr.. Email confirmation came a couple hrs later. Im so excited!!! Im hoping this is faster than having to wait in line. Just curious how many of you added the applecare +
I must have got lucky. I ordered mine within 5 minutes of the store coming back up after the keynote and had zero issues. No reloads, no fighting, just a nice hassle-free per-order. Sadly I can't take the time of work this time to camp the line-up in person, so here's hoping that I see my iPad arrive on release day (before would be cool too. I'd take that).
It took me 3 hours and 67% battery life to get the order. I tried the Apple store app and when I finally got to the cart, I had 6 in the cart and it wouldn't allow the order (thankfully). My son will get the iPad 2 and we will give the first gen iPad to my grandson. Three generations of iPad to three generations. How ironic.
I was able to place my order with no problems on March 9, 2012 at 8:19am central, but the order page still says processing 25 hours later and no confirmation email. It looks like my credit card was pinged with a $1 temporary charge. I ordered a White 32GB wifi only, no engraving or accessories.
I got my pre order in about two hours after the site re-opened after the event on Wednesday. But it's now FIVE DAYS SINCE and my order status says "Preparing to Ship". My friends (one of whom ordered his hours after I did in front of me) have been tracking their iPads en route from China for days. Oh, yeah, and I received my useless iPad cover on Saturday. Thanks for that. On the bright side, the status still reads "Delivering on March 16." Though, I am beginning less and less to believe it... Anyone out there having similar luck?

In my defense, it looked cool and refreshing. Cool as in temperature wise, not style, and refreshing, as in maybe a little aromatic relief from this ridiculous heat.
I bought a bottle of Aqua Velva aftershave.
I was standing in line at Walmart, waiting to pick up a prescription and I was perusing the different aftershaves until I came across the bottle of Aqua Velva Ice Blue. It even said, Cooling aftershave, on the bottle and it was on sale for just $2.99.
How can you beat that kind of a deal?
Apparently I couldnt because I bought a bottle.
I hurry home, thinking Boy, am I going to feel refreshed!
I remember Aqua Velva from my days as a boy. My grandfather wore Aqua Velva and so did my dad.
Aqua Velva offers the classic American fragrance, the bottle says, and more importantly, this is a fragrance you trust. Like Old Spice.
You cant go wrong with Old Spice, just like you cant go wrong with Aqua Velva.
Trust me, the bottle says, and I do. Completely.
The fine print on the back of the bottle goes on to say that Aqual Velvas Ice Blue firms and tones skin for a face thats fit.
Thats what I want, a fit face. I figure Im going to splash on some Aqua Velva Ice Blue and get fit-faced. And you know why?
Theres something about an Aqua Velva Man.
I remember seeing the Aqua Velva bottles in the medicine cabinet, and as a child, I always got this pleasant feeling when seeing the Aqua Velva bottle.
I anxiously popped the seal and uncapped the bottle because Im ready to feel cool and refreshed.
I noted the CAUTION portion of the bottle. The fine people at Aqual Velva warned that the contents of this container might be flammable until dry.
Thats because Aqua Velva Ice Blue is so HOT.
It also says, Do not apply, near fire, and Im left to wonder, what kind of man decides to bathe in an alcohol and glycerin based product near an open flame?
The alcohol part is self-explanatory, but glycerin too?
Thats glycerin as in nitro glycerin, as in stuff that will blow up your car. Besides, since when am I a cautious man?
The bottle also said, Splash it on, and I am always one who does as he is told.
So I do a cannon ball into this stuff.
Right about the time the entire seven-ounce contents of this bottle splashes onto my right hand and all over my pants Im reminded of a word of advice my daughter-in-law gave me when it came to wearing aftershave or cologne: Wear a dot, not a lot.
A cannon ball into a swimming pool full of Aqua Velva I pretty much blew that.
Thats when the aroma hit and I do mean aroma.
Oh, my God, I thought.
I smell like my grandfather. If my grandfather were still alive today hed be 105.
And still wearing Aqua Velva.
I remember the aroma now and Im being kind when I call this an aroma.
Its Aqua Velva Ice Blue trying unsuccessfully to mask the pervasive scent of spent methane.
A lifetime of pull my finger, and Aqua Velvas Ice Blue. It took three showers to eradicate the aroma.
So here I sit pondering my predicament. A near full bottle of Aqua Velva in my shower kit.
Im wearing tanktop T-shirt. Boxer shorts. Knee high black socks.
Oh, yeah, theres something about an Aqua Velva man.

Rechargeable Lithium batteries are rapidly becoming a very economical way to lower the operating costs of Lithium-Powered flashlights. We offer a number of different options in order to meet any rechargeable needs. All of the batteries on this page are Protected batteries with 4.2 volts max voltage and 3.6-3.7 volts nominal voltage. Please read the Rechargeable Lithium Battery Info Page for more information.
Protected lithium rechargeable batteries are very safe for use with any type of flashlight as long as it is compatible with the voltage that they provide, but they are generally better for LED flashlights.
17500 batteries are 1.5 times the height of the standard CR-123a battery, so two of these batteries in series replace 3 standard CR-123a batteries in most applications. Purchase the 1.6mm magnetic spacer - below, they help the batteries make contact in the middle.

EUGENE, Ore. - Cal State Northridge junior Desirae Gonder scored 3,067 points on the opening day of the seven-event heptathlon and is 19th place heading into day two on Thursday at the NCAA Championships at Oregon's Hayward Field.
Gonder, who came into the championship with a career-best point total of 5,512, needs 2,446 points over the final three events on Thursday to establish a new career-best in the two-day event.
On Wednesday, she finished 21st in the opening event, the 100 meter hurdles to pick up 907 points, her best of the day. Gonder ran a time of 14.51 which is well of her season and career-best of 14.07. She then moved on to arguably her best event, the high jump, and finished tied for seventh with a best clearance of 5-6.50 (1.69). Gonder had three chances at 5-7.75 but missed on all three attempts but still earned a solid 842 points.
She then was 20th in the shot put with a best throw of 29-9.50 (9.08) which earned her 469 points. Gonder capped the opening day's events with a 12th-place showing in the 200 meters (25.42) which earned her an additional 849 points.
Also on Wednesday, the Matador men's 4x100 relay team was disqualified in the preliminary round for passing the baton out of the zone.
Gonder completes the heptathlon on Thursday while Robert Robinson gets underway with the first five events in the decathlon. The women's 4x400 relay team will look to advance out of the preliminary round on Thursday.
