Product description
The Iliad and Odyssey do not cover the main story of the Trojan War. The whole saga, which includes Zeus' plan to reduce the world's population, the Judgment of Paris and seduction of Helen, the start of the campaign, the Wooden Horse, the fall of Achilles, the homecoming of Agamemnon, and the eventual death of Odysseus, was related in six other epics, dating from 630-560 BCE, that were influential for lyric poets, tragedians, and artists of the classical age but are known to us only through fragments and brief prose summaries. In this book Martin West presents all the source material and provides the first comprehensive commentary on it, making full use of iconographic as well as literary evidence. Discussing the individual fragments and testimonia, he endeavours to reconstruct the connections between them, so far as possible, and to build up a picture of the plan and course of each poem. In a substantial introduction he addresses general issues, including the nature and formation of the Epic Cycle, the status of the summaries of the Troy epics preserved under the name of Proclus, the validity of the attested ascriptions to particular poets, the reflexes of the Cycle in early art and literature, and its fortunes in and after the Hellenistic period.

Review quote
rich and valuable work ... Students and scholars will derive great benefit from West's labours, for his convenient collection and analysis of the ancient source material for the Cycle (e.g., attestations in literature and art), as much as for his wide-ranging and coherent treatment of the Cycle overall. English readers could hardly ask for a better synoptic analysis of the endlessly fascinating remains of this corpus of poetry, which will form the basis for future discussions of the Cycle for decades to come. Patrick O'Sullivan, Bryn Mawr Classical Review

Re: F**k it, someone had to say it... Past Boxing Era OVERRATED!!
cool for being open to other opinions but these fighters of today were put in a gym most likely at 5/6/7/8 years old and given the right basics from that age to fight back then alot of fighters made their own way into the sport and only then improving when there was a coach with the knowledge to train their talent what im saying is todays fighters have all the head starts they need
im not saying todays fighters are not better because i really dont think you can compare
look at formula one the cars where dog**** in the 50's basically like driving buses where as today they are like rockets...you can have all the talent you want but can only work within the limits of that sport at the time like basketball methods equipment, better ***** make alot of difference over a career...imagine a gym in the past eras compared to now targeting specific muscles, reactions, the list goes on
you only have to look at sprinting and how the times have fallen i dont think its humans that have evolved so much just methods to get the best out of a sportsman are so much better

It is understood that a number of Premier League and Championship sides have been scouting the Irish-born midfielder in recent months.
McCann's current deal is due to expire in the summer, and he could be set to leave Turf Moor after more than 200 appearances for the Clarets.
Burnley are in talks with a number of players whose contracts expire this summer, but their Premier League parachute payments run out this year and they are looking to reduce their wage bill as a result.
McCann joined Burnley from Home Farm as a youth player in 2004 and has since gone on to become a stalwart for the club.
But with international ambitions also high on his list of ambitions, the 26-year-old is now considering his future.
Norwich, Wigan, Swansea, Middlesbrough and Bolton are among the clubs being linked with his services.

In the Lighting with Flash series, photographer and Strobist blog publisher David Hobby demonstrates how to use compact flash units in a variety of lighting scenarios. In this first installment, he covers the basics, starting with ambient window light and ending with a four-light shoot of a model. Along the way, the course covers a variety of fundamental lighting concepts as well as accessories such as ring lights and softboxes. The course includes diagrams and detailed explanations of the lighting setups.
All right, let's go to the diagram for this shot we just did. The important thing here--a couple of things. Grabbing those backdrops and instead of using them two dimensionally stacking them in front of each other, one in front of two, gives a nice three-dimensional look to that backdrop and gives kind of another layer of texture to be going on back there. And the second thing I thought about it in this picture was bringing that umbrella in and hanging it right over the top of Ramona, as opposed to using it in the way we've been using an umbrella a few minutes ago, 45 degrees up, 45 degrees over.
I think it makes a more interesting light. It's this down wash of light that you can work against. And in particular, we've got Eric Kous, my friend holding this lightstand out as if it were a boom, but it's a boom that is voice-activated and that I can tell him to do whatever I want it to be done. And he can pull that out further, he can rotate it around, he can make less of the light fall on her, more of the light fall on her, he can bring it in closer if the light is not bright enough--any number of different things. And in fact, if she's moving around, he can move that light around with her and keep that same style of light on her if she were to move to her left or right.
In the movies this is called hollywooding the light, when you actually follow someone around with the light. It's a really useful technique if you are working with another photographer or an assistant on the scene. It makes your lighting a lot more versatile, and I highly recommend it. So we've got this light falling right over the top of Ramona, and it's splashing straight down, and she is sort of working in the edge of that beam. So the exposure here is based almost completely on flash. There's a little bit of ambient light coming in, and you can see that-- let's bring up the picture actually.
You can see that splashing on the tops of her shoulders and around the back, especially for camera right arm. Now we can modulate that exposure again the same way we could over at the other window, by opening up the shutter speed and just letting more of that light come in. And in this instance we got pretty high shutter speed, and there's not a lot of that light coming in. But those two lights are behind her in a kind of a cool way. They are sort of like two rim lights soft boxes back there flying, and we could open that shutter speed up to, say, a 60th or 40th and really get a lot more out of them if we wanted to.
Another thing we played with at the end was bringing in a ring flash for fill. And so let's bring up two examples of that. Here are two pictures straight out of the camera, no toning done to them really; this is just pretty much as they came out of the black box. On the left we're using a ring light, probably two stops down ,as fill, and you can see legibility in the shadows under her chin, and an overall reduced contrast in the picture. And you really don't notice it that much until you go to the picture on the right and that's where we take it away.
This is the way I'm most likely to use a ring flash, not so much as a key light, but as fill light to go in and alter the contrast range of whatever lighting that I've designed for key. It's a really, really useful light source in that way. And the ring flash has its own signature, and we'll do that again in a minute and use a ring flash as a key. But for right now, this ring is doing well as a fill light. In the end--and going back to the other straight picture for a second--I think I kind of like the more contrasty picture. I like it without the ring light in the end, and especially I like the fact that there's more contrast on the backdrop. That ring light, in addition to erasing the shadows under Ramona's chin, is also going to erase the shadows against those two edges of that front backdrop that's being created by that light we're flying over the top her.

Earlier this week, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius mocked the idea that ObamaCare is costing people their jobs. Sebelius even went so far as to say that "every economist will you tell you" that there is no evidence of job loss. According to her, the whole idea of economic suffering related to the misnamed Affordable Care Act is a "myth." While that kind of hyperbole is easily exposed (Every economist? Really?), ObamaCare critics don't need to beat the bushes to find conservative economists to counter that assertion. All they need to do is to read today's New York Times.
The number of those who have already been hurt by ObamaCare are legion, including millions of individual purchasers of insurance who have lost their coverage or been denied the ability to keep their doctors in spite of President Obama's promise to the contrary. But it's long been accepted that the employer mandate will eventually reduce the number of full-time workers because of new rules about coverage requirements. Yet it turns out that those affected are not just employees at small or mid-sized companies. The impact on one of President Obama's key support group turns out to be just as bad. As the New York Times reports:
Cities, counties, public schools and community colleges around the country have limited or reduced the work hours of part-time employees to avoid having to provide them with health insurance under the Affordable Care Act, state and local officials say.
The cuts to public sector employment, which has failed to rebound since the recession, could serve as a powerful political weapon for Republican critics of the health care law, who claim that it is creating a drain on the economy.
President Obama has twice delayed enforcement of the health care law's employer mandate, which would subject larger employers to tax penalties if they do not offer insurance coverage to employees who work at least 30 hours a week, on average. But many public employers have already adopted policies, laws or regulations to make sure workers stay under that threshold.
Sebelius was as wrong about the question of ObamaCare's impact on employment as she was about the rollout of the law's website. But the problem for the administration isn't just a credibility gap that was already as big as the Grand Canyon. It's that the ranks of ObamaCare losers are now growing and being filled by people that are the backbone of the Democratic Party. That means the real myth about ObamaCare is the assumption that once it goes into effect it will be transformed from an unpopular law to a beloved national institution like Social Security.
The findings of the Times report validate the conclusions of the Congressional Budget Office study released earlier this month on the impact of ObamaCare on employment. Though administration figures like Sebelius have been orchestrating a campaign seeking to deny these facts, the Times story illustrates the futility of this effort. Municipalities and public institutions around the country have been cutting the hours of their workers in order to avoid paying for their health care. Thus even though the point of the Affordable Care Act was to get more people covered, the unintended consequence of its passage was to cut the pay as well as deprive a significant population of public-sector workers of their chance to get insurance from their employer.
As the article notes, public workers are being especially hard hit because municipal employers can't pass along the increased costs of the insurance mandates to consumers the way private companies can try to do. Instead, they must cut down on the number of those they employ. But rather than reduce the ranks of those public employees getting expensive benefits and pensions that often are far more generous than those received by the taxpayers who pay their salaries, the people losing out in the ObamaCare squeeze are those at the bottom end of the wage scale.
These findings once again point out the problem with the administration's belief that their ObamaCare troubles are merely the result of a rough rollout and will soon disappear. It is true that millions of Americans who are either poor or have pre-existing medical conditions will be net winners as a result of ObamaCare. But unlike government entitlements like Social Security and Medicare, ObamaCare has also created a vast number of net losers who are losing coverage, losing jobs, or getting their hours and possible benefits cut.
The fact that a large number of those losers are members of a demographic that is a key element of the Democratic base is a potential political disaster for the president's party. Rather than going away as the midterms approach, if the Times is to be believed, it is getting worse. In this case, the Democratic focus on income inequality appears to be pertinent. But rather than being able to blame the plight of low-income workers on the wealthy or the Republicans, it is President Obama's signature accomplishment that is to blame.

The economy is reeling under the weight of new mandates, regulations, and tax hikes (with potentially more on the way). The last thing investors or employers want to see is a jumbo energy tax disguised as a "climate-control" bill. So there are smiles all around with this news:
After a meeting of Senate Democrats, party leaders on Thursday said they had abandoned hope of passing a comprehensive energy bill this summer and would pursue a more limited measure focused primarily on responding the Gulf oil spill and including some tightening of energy efficiency standards. …
While Mr. Reid criticized Republicans, it is clear he did not have sufficient support in his own party for a broad energy bill. A number of Democratic lawmakers from manufacturing and coal-producing states were expected to oppose such a bill.
That hasn't and won't stop Reid and the White House from blaming Republican lawmakers. But this is one accusation to which Republicans should be glad to plead guilty. If Reid wants to accuse them of stopping another job-killing, tax-hiking, mammoth piece of legislation, I don't think Republicans will mind.

South Portland council revises private-meeting guidelines
SOUTH PORTLAND — The City Council hopes to bring more transparency to its closed-door meetings after reaching an agreement on new executive session procedures in a workshop Monday.
Councilors also said they expect to move forward with a bond referendum on the November ballot to complete long-term road and water improvements in Thornton Heights.
Mayor Jerry Jalbert previously raised the issue of transparency in executive sessions in a May workshop.
The City Council has the right to meet privately to consider confidential personnel information, real estate negotiations, or "litigation matters," according to a recent memorandum from Sally Daggett the city attorney. In those sessions, if relevant, councilors will often reach consensus about how they would like Daggett to proceed.
Jalbert's concern lies in instances when, during executive session, the council gives Daggett a legal direction to take, but does not return to a public meeting afterward to take a vote indicating a decision.
A City Council may not, under Maine law, take a formal vote while in executive session.
But consensus reached in those sessions may require spending money on legal fees or concern the sale of city property. While the city should not jeopardize its interests, residents should know where their councilors stand, Jalbert has argued.
He cited legal battles in the past few years, specifically involving councilors' health-care options and city staff running for public office, where councilors did not vote publicly after giving direction to Daggett in an executive session.
"Maybe it's technically not a vote, but it's a fine line, and you don't want to be in that fine line," he said after Monday's workshop. "It can't be on a wink or a handshake, it's got to happen in public."
He also said the council should be more selective about when its decides to consider an issue behind closed doors.
A few councilors still questioned changes to the current procedure, on grounds publicly voting on a legal or business item could tip the city's hand, or expose council dissent.
"I'm being cautious about undermining the process," Councilor Maxine Beecher said.
But ultimately, councilors supported the process shift. No ordinance changes or resolutions are necessary to tweak executive session agenda items.
Councilors simply agreed, from now on, that Daggett will be more informative in agenda descriptions of executive session items, and will indicate whether the council could return from executive session to take a public vote before adjourning a meeting.
Thornton Heights bond
The proposed November referendum would allow borrowing $3.5 million to finance a portion of the Thornton Heights and Pleasantdale street and sewer improvement projects.
The estimated four-year project in a part of the city notorious for flooding problems is broken into four phases, the first of which began this spring along Main Street.
The first phase will be covered in the city's 2015 capital improvement plan, and much of the $12 million total project cost will be covered by contributions from the Portland Area Comprehensive Transportation System and tax increment financing.
But Finance Director Greg L'Heureux is asking voters to approve a $3.5 million bond to fund the balance for the remaining three phases.
The city would use the Clean Water State Revolving Loan Fund program to finance the project with a federally subsidized interest rate. Work on phase two sewer work and street improvement, which is set to begin next year, cannot begin without the funding.
L'Heureux assured the council that the property tax impact would be minimal because the debt service would be offset by TIF funds. He said he hopes voters consider the question a "no-brainer," in light of the neighborhood's needs.
The council will consider adding the bond referendum to the Nov. 4 ballot at their July 7 meeting.

4. Natasha Leggero
The new generation of observational humor will not be led by Seinfeld wannabes, but by fresh, witty upstarts like Natasha Leggero. Her razor-sharp wit can and will mock anything from legumes to Call of Duty with ease.
3. Aziz Ansari
Even as he becomes a massive force in the comedy world (from his standup to Parks and Recreation), Aziz Ansari still seems like the kind of guy you could have a drink with. Whether he's ranting about IMAX or dropping one of the year's best comedy releases, it feels like we've known Ansari since childhood.
2. Hannibal Buress
In 2010, this Chicago expat who now calls NYC home wrote for Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock (the latter is his current gig), released the fantastic My Name is Hannibal and performed at festivals curated by both Wilco and the Insane Clown Posse. Enough said.
1. Louis C.K.
Sure, Louis C.K. has been around forever, but he positively owned 2010. Let's run down the facts, then. Fact One: His film, Hilarious, was the first stand-up movie to be shown at Sundance. Fact Two: He finally struck television gold with Louie (Seriously, if you're not watching it on FX or Hulu, you're dead to us.), which was renewed for a second season. Fact Three: He's currently finishing up a gigantic tour that took him to every corner of the U.S. Game, set, match.

The US FAA has ordered emergency inspections of wing leading-edge slat tracks on all Boeing Next Generation 737s after investigators discovered a loose bolt had pierced the fuel tank in the China Airlines 737-800 that was destroyed by fire in Japan on 20 August.
The emergency airworthiness directive issued by the FAA on 25 August requires operators to inspect main slat track downstop assemblies and slat track housings within 24 days and every 3,000 flight cycles thereafter.
The AD applies to all 737-600, -700, -800 and -900 series aircraft, including the newest member of the family, the 737-900ER.
The FAA says it has received reports of parts of the downstop assembly coming off the main slat track. In one case a nut fell into the track housing, or slat can, and during retraction the track made contact with the nut, puncturing the can. The operator reported finding fuel leaking from the drain hole in the slat can, the FAA says.
In the China Airlines incident, the AD says, loose parts of the downstop assembly punctured the slat can, which resulted in a fuel leak and ground fire that destroyed the aircraft.
The AD requires operators to inspect the slat track downstop to check for missing parts and verify proper installation, and to check the inside of the slat can for foreign object debris and damage.
In addition, a torque of 50-80in-lb must be applied to the nut on the downstop assembly.
The FAA says the emergency AD in an interim solution until a final action is identified.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
(L-R) RYAN NELSON as Slightly Creepy Boy, NICK SHRIM as Somewhat Doubtful Boy, BONNIE WRIGHT as Ginny Weasley, SHEFALI CHOWDHURY as Parvati Patil, OLIVER PHELPS as George Weasley, AFSHAN AZAD as Padma Patil, KATIE LEUNG as Cho Chang, JAMES PHELPS as Fred Weasley, DANIEL RADCLIFFE as Harry Potter, MATTHEW LEWIS as Neville Longbottom, EMMA WATSON as Hermione Granger, RUPERT GRINT as Ron Weasley, EVANNA LYNCH as Luna Lovegood, WILLIAM MELLING as Nigel and ALFRED ENOCH as Dean Thomas
In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry returns for his fifth year of study at Hogwarts and discovers that much of the wizarding community is in denial about the teenager's recent encounter with the evil Lord Voldemort, preferring to turn a blind eye to the news that Voldemort has returned. Fearing that Hogwarts' venerable Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, is lying about Voldemort's return in order to undermine his power and take his job, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, appoints a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to keep watch over Dumbledore and the Hogwarts students. But Professor Dolores Umbridge's Ministry-approved course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the dark forces threatening them and the entire wizarding community, so at the prompting of his friends Hermione and Ron, Harry takes matters into his own hands. Meeting secretly with a small group of students who name themselves "Dumbledore's Army," Harry teaches them how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts, preparing the courageous young wizards for the extraordinary battle that lies ahead.

Gawd. Is a marijuana possession charge really the focus on this cat? Seriously? If you haven't rolled one in your life, that's no reason to outcast someone who has. And don't give me that "oh, but it's ILLEGAL!" jazz. Traffic cameras, tax evasion, underage drinking, fireworks in city limits, cowtipping. C'mon, people. You've broken the law and not been caught. Toking it up shouldn't be a flag for being a hardened criminal.
That said, the other charges this guy carries? Different story. Bad judgement and bad decisions do not make for good character.
Love the chatter at the end of the audio. Yes to the concrete comment. Yes to the idiocy of the driver. Regardless of the "top heavy"-ness of the load, just how fast do you think that big boy should travel through a curve? Schmuck is lucky no one was killed.
Yeah, early happy hour. Break out the blender for frozen margaritas.
Oh. Wait...
Blakely was, indeed, the guy that should have been working these kinds of efforts. But...oops...he actually didn't do anything but polish Ray-ray's shiny head. You're correct on the other two examples, though, however that had zero to do with the city. Both projects were done by the state.
More power to the IG. Quit calling race cards, people. Mayor Nagin promised transparency and he has yet to fulfill that promise. Care to argue that?
Asked the jury to "look past the ethics"? What? Isn't the whole thing about ETHICS? Meffert is a fool and his legal team is even worse. They've given the feds everything they need to lock him and his ego up for a nice long term.
Nagin? Meffert's going to sell him, and St Pierre, out, just to carve a few years off the top.
We'll have another levee breach before these assclowns can even break ground.
As if any damned crime camera works. I love the "file was too big" excuse. Wasn't the one they used a still shot? So where's a still from the city-cam, hm? That too technical you NOPD suits to figure out?
Fire the chief. Jail the mayor.
You gotta wonder if this person was exposed to that dozen Lutheran youth volunteers that contracted it.
The poor, poor Jeffersons. Guess they're not movin on up any more.
Poor Ben Morris. You'd think all the graft and corruption he's benefited from would be enough salary for one man. I guess not.
You go, Ben! Say no to smart government!
Is that all you read in my comments? Name calling? That's all? Seriously? Considering the commenter I'm addressing, I can think of a long series of names I'd love to throw up there, but I was actually quite restrained.
Astrid, you misspelled another word:
"Republicans" live in the past complain about it and as long as they get theirs today, right now, they could not care less about their future or their childrens'.
You're throwing some pretty big stones, j.o.
Where were you when the previous administration added $2 trillion to the national debt? Were you whining then? Or, better yet, how long has it taken you to claim the future generations will be paying for our current debt? I got news for you, hun. The price tag for the baby boomers social security income will surpass $10 trillion. Is that Pres Obama's fault, too? Maybe you'd like to consider the past two presidents should have had their act together instead of allowing policy to create the hole we're in now?
Comrades, indeed. Why are people just sitting around gnashing teeth and wailing about how we're heading towards communistic DOOM? Get with the program, baby. Your generation's rules are done with. Get used to it.
You're ever more the idiot. If the Repubs ever needed a poster child for what's wrong with their party, you'd be first in line. Vitter is a demonstrated piece of filth whose only quality is calling attention to himself by playing the ass in Congress.
You wouldn't know genuine socialism if it bonked you on your fat head. You can't say jack about a president whose term hasn't passed six months. History will judge the actions of a president, not flash-in-the-pan alarmists who further fearmongering by tossing barbs like "socialism" and "big government". Get your textbooks out and get a good read on FDR and Reagan before you claim what you think is socialism. I'd say you'd be surprised but you probably can't read past the title page.
No wonder the Bacchus stars have been on the decline: Michael Hunt was in charge. If ever there was a wanna-be D-lister, it's Michael Hunt himself. Hey, Mikey, what artist are you going rip off this year for Mardi Gras? Nothing like a little semi-plagaristic design wrapped up in your suburban tourist packaging, eh? I'm sure you'll sell MANY of those signed lithographs, buddy, to krewe members that will likely wrap fish with them.
You've chosen a has-been Bacchus with a spotty reputation, in both his personal life and in the "ring". I can think of many people kids nowadays consider a hero, and Hulk Hogan ain't one of 'em. Maybe you should have considered Michael Vick. Kids used to look up to him, too.
Idiot. It'll only help Bacchus's reputation to have you walk. It can't get any worse than this.
Oh but wait. Maybe Carrot-top is available...

According to the Center for Women's Business Research, women of color start businesses at three to five times the rate of other groups. One of the primary obstacles to growing their businesses to the same level of success as other groups is gaining access to capital. Further research indicates that women business owners that do obtain capital make an average of four attempts to obtain a bank loan or line of credit and more than 20 attempts to obtain equity capital.
Access to capital is key to the success of small businesses. If you own a small business in the District of Columbia and need access to capital, you may want to consider applying for a micro loan. DC Government just announced a pilot micro loan program. The loans are restricted to certified business enterprises (CBE) but you never know, this might be the one attempt that works in your favor.

Prominent blacksmith Jim Bayes dies at age 80
Jim Bayes, a prominent blacksmith who shod Alysheba and Cigar, died Thursday in Hot Springs, Ark., due to complications from the flu, said his wife, Jill. Bayes was 80.
Bayes was a native of Blanchard, Mich., who became one of the most sought after blacksmiths in racing. At one point in his career, Jill Bayes said her husband spent a number of years with Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum's operation, splitting his time between Dubai and England. Bayes also spent time in New York and Kentucky.
"He shod for everybody," said Joe Petalino, a longtime friend and trainer. "It seems like he shod just about every other good horse that came down the pike."
In addition to Alysheba and Cigar, the list of prominent runners shod by Bayes includes Dubai Millennium and Easy Goer.
Bayes was retired from blacksmith work at the time of his death.
"He'd been farming for 15 years," said Jill, his wife of 34 years. "We have a cattle farm, a few horses, dogs and the cats."
The farm is in Glenwood, Ark.
Jill Bayes said a memorial service for her husband will be held at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Ark. The date is to be determined. Bayes is also survived by a son, Jimbo, a blacksmith, and his wife, Jacqueline; a grandson, J.T.; and a brother, Bill, and his wife, Elaine.

Hi, thanks for using JustAnswer.com. I suspect your motor control board is shorted and is causing the issue you are having. I believe you are replacing the main control at the top RH corner, correct? Remove the rear cover and look closely at the motor control board mounted to the bottom of the cabinet. You will likely see some visible burn marks on that board. Let me know what you find and what part number control you are replacing.
Part number for the harness is W10204534, available from http://www.appliancezone.com/ for $16.60 + shipping. It is number 1 in the picture...

While in some parts of the country, some may disagree, it is officially spring and spring is in the air! You can feel it, smell it, hear it and it's time get your run on outdoors after a winter of hibernating indoors. If this sounds like you and you've been unsure how to, procrastinating, and hiding on the elliptical while watching The Food Network in the warmth comfort of your gym, now is the time to get back out there. Here are a few tips to get you pumped about the seasonal shift and to reintroduce outdoor mileage without injury.
Ease in: Even if you kept up your fitness level working out indoors in the winter, the impact of running outdoors won't be the same as the indoor alternatives. The spring rains and wind, uneven surfaces from rough winter road conditions and pounding pavement is going to take readjusting for your body. To avoid injury, ease back into your outdoor mileage levels, sticking to the tried and true 10% rule: keep increases from week to week no more than 10%.
Schedule it: schedule your outdoor runs in amidst other cross-training to allow your body to get re-accustomed to the stress (and possible aches) of outdoor running. Strength training on complimentary muscle groups, yoga to lengthen the muscles and increase mobility and low impact options like swimming will help you get back into top form quickly.
Mix it up: map out some new routes (start with flatter ones) and explore different neighbourhoods, enjoy the budding trees and nature during the seasonal change, and take advantage of running earlier and later as the days get longer. Getting back to nature and breathing in fresh air has psychological, physical and physiological benefits. Sneak in a tree hug for bonus points.
Check your gear: When's the last time you got new shoes! If it's time for new shoes (it's not always how many miles are on them but other factors like harsh weather, salt, sand, wearing them for cross training), go get fitted for a new pair and ensure that you're being fitted through an assessment of your feet and natural gait. While you're at it, maybe buy a new outfit too – it is my experience that an awesome light layered pullover that matches your flashy new kicks makes you run faster.
Consider your fuel: through the winter, we tend to eat heavier, warming and comforting foods. Whether we're training or not, seasons can affect our diets and once the thaw hits, it is a good time to check in and do a dietary spring cleaning. Making shifts towards eating more unprocessed foods, increasing intake of natural whole foods, and fueling with clean protein and carbohydrate picks will also help in recovery as the intensity of training ramps back up. Learn more about proper nutrition!

The latest clash occurred in Hotan Prefecture, in the southern part of Xinjiang, whose population is predominantly Uighur. The Uighurs are a Turkic-speaking group sharing many affinities with people across Central Asia, and most follow relatively moderate forms of Sunni Islam. Many Uighurs resent the growing number of Han Chinese people, who have been attracted to Xinjiang by jobs in farming, energy production and mining.

The "0 Prototype" featured and teased prominently in the recent Plan 0 video (a look into BMW's secret prototyping process) is likely to be the future BMW X4 SAV, which will take on the coupe SAV look of a baby X6, albeit in smaller form. Evidence comes via Scott26′s words, the presence of personnel from the Spartanburg plant (where X models are produced), and close resemblance to speculative X4 renders.
Here is the first official sketch preview of the upcoming BMW X4. The sketch features the rear view of the X4 concept and reveals a sleek SAV with many of the design aspects already mentioned by BMW insiders.
At a marketing presentation with the F25 X3 project leader, it was revealed that the BMW X4 Concept will be presented sometime next year, with production in 2013-2014. The X3 lineup may also be expanded soon with an X3 M, xDrive35is, and Active Hybrid versions.
What does the future of the BMW X portfolio hold? According to insider Scott26, BMW is keen on a potential X4 (think smaller X6) which shares technology with the X3, an X3 35iS sharing engine from z4 35iS and 335iS, and an X3M with motor from upcoming 1M Coupe.

After yesterday's photos posted to a Chinese forum of a device claimed to be the Samsung Galaxy S IV, a video of what looks like the same device has landed on YouTube — again purporting to be the sequel to Samsung's flagship Galaxy S III. As with the leaked photos, the video was spotted by SammyHub. The video shows a large handset, initially with the back off and the battery removed, before the battery is inserted, the plastic back snapped on and the phone turned on. As it boots up, it displays Chinese carrier China Unicom's Wo logo before loading what appears to be a version of Samsung's TouchWiz UI.
The design of the device looks very similar to the Galaxy S III, with a high gloss plastic casing — tallying with other S IV reports – and metallic looking bands around the edges. The physical home button is present and correct, below a screen that looks longer than the S III's pane — in keeping with rumours that Samsung is upping the touchscreen inch count to 5 inches (from the 4.8 inch pane on the S III). A five inch screen will push Samsung's flagship handset into phablet territory, alongside Samsung's Galaxy Note range.
The demo of the device goes on to showcase the camera function, the dialler and the settings menu — including the about page (in Chinese) which shows it's apparently running Android 4.2.1 (Jelly Bean). In the background of the video, another video can be heard (and briefly seen reflected in the device's screen) running Apple's iPad Mini promo — doubtless to suggest that the Galaxy S IV is pushing into the mini tablet territory.
As with all such leaks, it's not possible to confirm whether this is the real deal — although, being a video, it looks a lot more plausible than many of the blurry leaked photos that crop up online ahead of flagship product releases. Either way, Galaxy fans don't have long to wait as Samsung is due to unveil the real deal at an event in New York on Thursday.

He's a voracious reader and has a broad range of reading interests.
Most people I know, know I am an avid fan of Stephen King's work, but I am not exclusive, and I suspect the people who don't know me don't care.
A side story. I had a customer come up to me the other day and ask me where the Stephen King books were and if I could recommend a good place to start with his fiction. She had read "Guns" and had wanted to finally read some of his fiction. She said I looked like a good person to ask.
I said, ahhh, my reputation precedes me, with some pride. She said, no your t-shirt does.
I forgot I was wearing my WKIT T-Shirt. :blush:
I read Clive Barker, Bill Bryson, sucker for a Jilly Cooper and mostly anything that is to hand.
Basically I read King. Lots of times I read about written about king or by one of Kings family members.
There are times when I read multiple books by one author in great spurts (I read about forty of SK's books in high school, I think), but I do not exclusively read SK or any author. More often I'm asked if I read anything else other than horror (or something along those same lines). I typically respond something like "yes, I read fantasy and thrillers and mafia books, but it's not as much fun as horror." :biggrin2:
We all start writing with a goal. My goal, is to have King read me.
read you someday, but only after your book is published. As I understand it, his lawyer quite insists upon that.
Before I discovered sK I was a reading fan and had accumulated a few favorites: CSLewis, Tolkein, Michael Chricton, JDSalinger, William Goldman, Dean Koontz, Woody Allen, Douglas Adams, I think about covers it. Since, all I currently want to read are sK books, mostly because they fascinate me, but partly because I'd really like to have them all read at least once and I am so way behind.
I have many authors I like to read but it seems that when I get in an SK mood, I can't stop at just one. Last year after I finished Wind Through The Keyhole, I ended up reading DT5-7, The Dead Zone, Hearts In Atlantis, Misery, The Colorado Kid and a couple of the new short stories afterwards. I haven't read any SK since (except for Guns) but I know a big SK spree will be coming close to when Doctor Sleep is due to be released. I'm planning on reading The Shining again before Dr. Sleep is released and we will see what happens after that.

I'm inspired by the H & H video re: painting hardwood floors. I'm wanting to do same to my parquet floors. In the video, it states to sand floors. Is it necessary to sand away all of the existing finish?
I was also looking for the solution, nice sharing.. thanks
You may think just putting some primer on first would be sufficient, but for the most part primers aren't suitable for floors (I.E. Not durable enough to be walked on) so the best thing to do is just sand it all down. floor sanding
No, it is not necessary to sand all of the polyurethane off the parquet before painting. The whole idea of sanding is not to remove the polyurethane, but to increase it's surface area. By providing more surface area for your paint to grip, you increase the apparant adhesion of the paint to the floor.
If you find that it's too much work to sand the floor down yourself, any place listed under "Janitorial Services" in your Yellow Pages phone book will sand the floor down with a floor machine. The charge to do that work shouldn't be very high as the Janitorial Service sector of the economy tends to pay their employees minimum wage. The following picture shows a person sanding a gymnasium floor down with a floor machine connected to a vaccuum cleaner. The floor machine is turning a sandpaper disk and the vaccuum cleaner is drawing in all the dust created. Double click on the thumbnail to see a larger picture.
You should also be aware that you need a paint that dries to a HARD film to provide good service on a working surface like a floor. Typically paint companies will use their hardest drying polyurethane paint as a floor paint, but normally the colour selection is very limited. Typically, floor paints will come in only 4 colours; light grey, dark grey, navy blue and brown.
If you can't find a colour you like in a polyurethane floor paint, then use an INTERIOR oil based paint. Regardless of what the advertising says, latex paints are simply too soft to stand up well on a floor.
And, there's something you need to know about paint:
On a paint tinting machine, you'll typically find about 12 canisters with different "colourants" in each one. The carrier fluid in those colourants will be glycerine. They use glycerine as the carrier fluid because it's equally soluble in both water and mineral spirits, so the same colourants (and hence the same tinting machine) can be used to tint both latex and oil based paints.
The problem with using an interior oil based paint and just tinting it to the colour of your choice is that the more colourant you add, the more glycerine will be in the paint. Glycerine evaporates very slowly, so the more heavily the paint is tinted, the longer it will take to dry. This is obviously an important consideration because you can't walk on a painted floor until it's fully dry. You can, however, help speed the drying process along by using an electric heater with a fan. If you put the heater in a doorway to circulate warm air in the room, that will help any paint dry faster. And, of course, you can paint one half of the floor first, and then the other.
If you can't find a floor paint in a colour you like, you might also want to look in your Yellow Pages phone directory under "Industrial Coatings". Most of these places will provide powder coating services, but several will sell moisture cure polyurethanes and epoxy floor paints for warehouse and factory floors. You may be able to get an extremely durable floor paint made to the colour you want from one of these places. I don't know that the colourants used in moisture cure and epoxy coatings contain glycerine.
Still, if you can get a janitorial service to sand the polyurethane off your floor entirely, you might be best off just refinishing your floor. That's always going to look better than a painted floor.
Did you refinish your parquet floors yourself or have them professionally done? If it was done professionally, where did you find the refinishers?
We are ripping up our old carpeting and want to restain our parquet a little darker than the old yellowy finish that is there now.
Thanks for your help.
Yes, if you're going to paint your floors you definitely need to sand off the old finish. You may think just putting some primer on first would be sufficient, but for the most part primers aren't suitable for floors (I.E. Not durable enough to be walked on) so the best thing to do is just sand it all down, or have someone sand it for you if it's too much work. you could also look into renting a floor sanding machine to take it down to the wood.
