Congratulations to James, who just won his third Where In Vegas! He correctly identified the location of our photo (Benny's Bullpen) in only 22 minutes. It's James' second consecutive win! You've got to be quick to beat this guy! Dean, our other two-time winner also piped up, but he held back on the answer and wasn't quite quick enough to win. Thanks for playing!
We'll be at it again early next month. Will we have a new winner for Where in Vegas 11?

They also discuss the governor's comments on state and municipal employees who are "double-dippers"-- those who retire and collect a pension and then return to work in the public sector, and the possibility oif prohibiting recipients of SNAP benefits from spending those benefits on things such as soft drinks.

Type "paradise" into any search engine, and you'll find thousands of photos of palm trees dangling over white-sand beaches that fade into translucent blue waters. Or as residents of Punta Cana call it, home. Set on the far eastern shores of the Dominican Republic, this Caribbean resort town has garnered worldwide renown for its abundant sunshine, uncrowded beaches, and sprawling gardens. This, courtesy of Apple Vacations, is the stuff heaven is made of.
Situated smack in the middle of it all is the IBEROSTAR Dominicana Hotel, an all-inclusive 506-room resort surrounded by Eden-esque tropical gardens. Besides the white sand and 80-degree waters of Playa Bávaro, you'll have unfettered access to all the resort offers: nightclubs, casinos, an 18-hole golf course, a scuba and snorkeling center, a large retail center, and live entertainment for both adults and children. There's no shortage of epicurean indulgence here, either, with six à la carte restaurants serving a global array of cuisine, two international buffets, and a few bars, including a sports bar and restaurant. And it's all less than 25 minutes from Punta Cana International Airport and about 45 minutes from La Romana International Airport.
Each of 160 tile-floor Junior Suites is appointed with two double beds or one king-size bed, a balcony or terrace, air-conditioning, an LCD satellite TV, and a mini-fridge stocked daily with soft drinks, beer, and water.

MORRISTOWN – Forty-six pairs of ice skates were donated to the village of Morristown today by the St. Lawrence County Health Initiative for use at the villages ice rink, which is located behind the fire hall.
The $1,500 donation is part of the Health Initiatives Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work and Play project and is designed to encourage outdoor activity in the village throughout the winter months.
The Health Initiative gives out roughly $60,000 across the county every year to similar projects. It is funded through the state Department of Health.
The skates were purchased from MVP Sports in Potsdam.
Karen M. Bage, director of the Healthy Places project, said, Its not a huge investment but it goes a long way in these small towns.
In Morristown the skates will be used at the new ice rink set up under the pavilion built over the summer.
Morristown Fire Chief Kevin J. Crosby said the ice rink has had an average of 15 to 20 kids skating every day the weather has cooperated.
Mr. Crosby hopes the new skates will open the rink up for the entire community, not just people who have skates already.
Mr. Crosby also said the Health Initiative donation inspired community members to start donating skates they no longer use. So far the village has received six donations from the community, bringing the total number of skates available to rent out up to 52.
Mrs. Bage said the program ensures the skates will be cared for before they give out the grant money.
In Morristown the skates will be available at the village clerks office on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Mr. Crosby said skates will be rented out for a week at a time.
If you want them longer you just have to let the village clerk know, Mr. Crosby said.
The village is going to rent out the skates free of charge to anyone, not just village residents.
Its open for anybody, Mr. Crosby said.
That goes for the ice rink to Mr. Crosby said.
The ice rink in Morristown is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily and is free for anyone.
Mrs. Bage said she hopes this will increase opportunities for physical activity in the village.

CRIMINAL CONTEMPT - MASSENA - Village police charged Dale E. Ward, 35, of 72 Woodlawn Ave., Massena, with first-degree criminal contempt at 4:16 p.m. Monday. The charge stemmed from an investigation into an incident that occurred at 12:36 p.m. March 12 when Ward allegedly called and left a voice mail at Jennifer E. Barrons workplace.
The criminal contempt charge was elevated to a felony since Ward had a second-degree criminal contempt conviction (Jan. 12, 2010) within the past five years.
Massena Village Justice Eric J. Gustafson had signed a temporary order of protection on Jan. 13 ordering Ward to have no contact with Ms. Barron. The temporary order was signed after village police charged Wardwith second-degree menacing, second-degree aggravated harassment, second-degree harassment, second-degree harassment and second-degree criminal impersonation following an investigation into an incident that reportedly took place on Dec. 28. He reportedly threatened Ms. Barron with a machete during that incident.
Ward was arraigned on the new charge Monday evening by Acting Massena Village Justice James M. Crandall and sent to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility with no bail set. The court noted it was unable to set bail because Ward has two prior felony convictions.
LEAVING THE SCENE - MASSENA - Village police charged James A. Nieman, 41, of 33B Grantville Road, Massena, with leaving the scene of a property damage accident and failure to yield the right of way to a pedestrian in a cross walk after he allegedly struck Bridget Laughlin at 12:07 p.m. Sunday in the Walmart parking lot.
SPEEDING - MASSENA - Village police ticketed Charlene P. Taylor of Brasher Falls for speed in zone following a traffic stop at 7:42 a.m. Tuesday on the South Raquette River Road.
UNINSPECTED MOTOR VEHICLE - MASSENA - Village police ticketed Devian J. Fletcher, 19, of 210 West 145th St. 2J, New York City, for operation of an uninspected motor vehicle following a traffic stop at 9:19 a.m. Tuesday on Main Street near East Orvis Street.

Two down, four to go.
Four wins are what separates three of the Blackstone Valley's boys' hockey teams -- Mount St. Charles Academy, Cumberland High, and East Providence High -- from a date with state championship glory.
And the road for those teams continue this weekend when a half dozen best-of-three semifinal-round series around the state take place.
For the Clippers, they won't have to wait too long for their Division II clash. The Division I-North champion Clippers, who are the third seed, will begin a difficult series with second-seeded, defending Division II champ Portsmouth High tomorrow at 7 p.m. at Portsmouth Abbey's rink.
The second game is Friday at 9 p.m. at Adelard Arena, and if the series is tied and there is a rubber game, it will be Sunday at 4 p.m. back at the Abbey.
This series is a rematch of last season's competitive title series at Providence College's Schneider Arena. It saw the Patriots score a 3-2 overtime win over the Clippers in the series opener and a 3-1 victory in the Game 2 clincher.
The Mounties will continue their quest for their fourth straight Division I title and 42nd in their storied history on Friday when the top-seeded Mounties face off against fourth-seeded La Salle Academy and host the Rams in their series opener on Friday at 7:30 p.m.
Game 2 is scheduled for Saturday at 7 p.m. at Thayer Arena, and if there is a Game 3, it will be on Monday back at Adelard at a time to be announced.
As for the Townies, they hold the third seed in the Division III playoffs and a tough test in defending Division III champion Mount Hope High, which owns the second seed.
The Huskies will host Friday's opener at 7 p.m. at Portsmouth Abbey, and the Townies will entertain them on Saturday at 8 p.m. at Lynch Arena. A third and deciding game, if necessary, will be back in Portsmouth on Monday at 7 p.m.
Here's a look at the three series of local interest:
Division I
Mount St. Charles (18-1-1) vs. La Salle (15-3-2)
As expected, the parochial schools (and top four seeds) put away their public-school counterparts with ease in their respective quarterfinal-round series.
Now the real excitement begins with second-seeded Bishop Hendricken and third-seeded Moses Brown battling each other in one series and the Mounties and Rams facing off in the other.
The Mounties' lone loss of the year came on Feb. 4 in their last meeting with the Rams, who rode a strong 27-save performance from goalie Joe Noonan to a stunning 3-0 victory. You can bet this game will be fresh on the minds of the Mounties when they hit the ice on Friday.
The Mounties, who endured a physical quarterfinal-round series with eighth-seeded Smithfield High, could be in for another tough series with the Rams. Both sides combined for 40 penalty minutes in their two regular-season duels.
Senior defenseman Stephen Inman is one of the league's toughest player who can check with the best of them, and junior forward and sophomore forward Steve Rocchio are also two of the team's top physical players.
"(The series with Smithfield) was a tough physical series for us and it should get us ready for the next one," remarked Mounties coach Dave Belisle. "La Salle is also a physical team, but they've obviously a notch above Smithfield. It should be a very good series."
Of the four parochial schools, the Rams may have the youngest roster (only a half dozen seniors), but the kids are alright. Freshman standout Bryan Lemos (16 goals, 16 assists), junior Dan Lucchetti (14-15-29), and Rocchio (16-12-28) lead a balanced scoring attack, and Noonan is a sophomore.
The Mounties, meanwhile, come into the series with more firepower than La Salle, three excellent lines, and their senior co-captains, Zach Samborsky (26-35-61) and Trevor Plante (36-24-60), enjoying tremendous seasons.
Division II
Cumberland (15-4-2) vs. Portsmouth (16-3-1)
Counting a 3-0 loss in their regular-season finale and last year's sweep in the finals, the Clippers have not beaten the Patriots in seven straight contests, but they hope to change that in a big way this weekend.
That could be easier said than done. The Division II-South champion Patriots are 10-0-1 in their last 11 games and boasting one of the top offensive units in the league that has averaged nearly six goals a game in their unbeaten streak.
"They got a pretty balanced team and two lines that can score," said Clippers coach Mark Andreozzi. "It's not a question of shutting down one or two guys, it's being able to shut the whole team down."
The Patriots' assault starts with senior snipers Aaron Towers (29-14-43) and Matt Abraham (20-22-42) and continues with Mike Maggiacomo and Chris Oliveira, who have 14 goals each.
The Clippers, meanwhile, only have two players with more than seven goals, junior Mike Kinch (16-10-26) and Andrew Dulac (12-7-19).
"We don't score often enough to get into a shootout with them," Andreozzi added, "so we definitely need to play our game, play our defensive system."
Both teams finished 2-3 in fewest goals allowed behind top-seeded Coventry High. Cumberland goalie Michaelangelo Federici led the division in goals-average-average (1.51) and was second in save percentage (.924), but not far behind him was Portsmouth's Matt Maggiacomo (1.86, .916).
While most folks view the Patriots as a slight favorite in this series, the Pats' recent history in the Division II postseason has not also been on their side.
Before winning the state title last year, the Patriots had endured a stretch of early-round knockouts, several of them to lower-seeded squads. They nearly suffered one of those to seventh-seeded South Kingstown last weekend, but managed to sweep them by close 4-3 and 7-6 score.
The Oakers are playing the fifth-seeded Prout School in the other semifinal-round series.
Division III
East Providence (13-5) vs. Mount Hope (15-2-1)
No team in the division has played as brilliantly during the past seven weeks as the Townies, who storm into this series with victories in 10 of their last 11 games, including a well-played 4-3 win on the road over the Huskies on Jan. 28.
But the Huskies, who were 4-2 winners over the Townies in their first contest of the season, have also been playing excellent hockey as of late.
Both teams share plenty in common. Not only are they deep and able to skate three lines regularly, but they are also excellent defensively and in the middle of the division this season when it came to penalties.
The Huskies have several battle-tested players who were on last year's title-winning team that swept the Rogers/Tiverton co-op team and lost in the 2009 finals in a three-game thriller to Prout.
Senior center Ed Botelho (15-50-65) was the division's leader in assists and points, and Gian DiMezza (30-28-58) and Chris Dugan (24-16-40) are also scoring threats. Jordan Viera and Chris Harrington also give the team a solid tandem of defensemen.
Also for the Townies, several players have stepped up their play during their recent winning ways, such as James Hall (17-15-32), Trevor Medeiros (18-8-26), and captain D.J. Donahue offensively, and defenseman Harrison Jones and goaltender John Andrews on 'D'.
In the other semifinal-round series, the top-seeded Johnston/North Providence co-op team is battling fourth-seeded Cranston East.

The main 2 marks on the bottom read 'kozan'. It is possible there are other ways to read them but that is the most common reading. There is one more mark on the edge that is an incomplete #5 in Japanese. That is to say, it almost looks like a 5.
The piece itself almost looks like Satsuma type ware. Almost because it appears to really be done in high relief. Maybe middle of the last century, 1950, or there about. It could also be later or earlier, it is difficult to tell.
The image looks Chinese to me. Chinese and Japanese have been copying each other for hundreds of years so it isn't unusual to have a Chinese copy of a Japanese piece.
Value. Good question. The name 'kozan' is a well known name in Satsuma but the famous Kozan uses different characters to render his name. There is a different Kozan that uses the same characters, and he or she made satsuma type ware. The price for that piece is expensive but it is an incense burner. I would put your piece in the 100$ range.

Thank you so much David for your response I appreciate it I spent several hours yesterday researching Japanese marks but I could probably spent a life time due to the enormity of it.

|Avery Fire Coverage, Insurance in Jeopardy
|Written by Steve Frank
|Thursday, 25 July 2013 06:09
There is a struggle between 11 of the 13 Avery County fire departments and the county over a number of issues—and the consequences may be a declaration of no fire coverage from insurance companies for a large portion of the county. Avery County Firefighters Association President Paul Buchanan said today the 11 departments who decided to react to county moves by signing only 6-month contracts as opposed to an annual contract are yet to receive monthly operational funding from the Avery County Fire Commission after seeking some changes in points forced upon the fire departments.
"Literally one year ago we approached the county commissioners to sit down and talk with us not only concerning the budget but also the biggest thing was that the Fire Commission had talked with the commissioners and came up with all the fire trucks were going to be titled in the Fire Commission's name and out of the fire department's names," he said. "That was done without any of our knowledge at last year's budget."
Buchanan said that the fire departments were promised in March another look at the issue by the commission, but that budget time came and went without that meeting. He said the strategy to offer the half-year contracts come as fire budgets are cut to the bone over the last three years, "This year, with the titling of the fire trucks we've been cut—this is the third year we've been cut to the bone to where we're barely running on fuel for the trucks."
Buchanan said that the budget process leaves little or no time for departments to respond to the funds that the county allocates in their budget, commissioners presenting their amended budget "about one week before the fiscal year begins," Buchanan said, leaving little time for the fire departments to review.
Only Seven Devils and Banner Elk signed one-year contracts, according to Buchanan. Buchanan said the first operational fund checks from the commission and county should have arrived around July 15 but have not. The fear, Buchanan said, is that the six-month contracts, if not signed by the commission and county, are not valid, meaning there is a chance that the North Carolina Fire Insurance Rating Bureau would deem the municipalities as having no fire services. If a municipality has no fire service, he says fire insurance costs increase, and residents will be at higher risk and pay more annually. Buchanan said the 11 departments will continue to serve—at least until funds are gone. At this point, there has been no word from Avery County over the issue.

Up in Honey's Roomby Elmore Leonard
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Sweet Honey Deal's not sure what compelled her to marry Walter Schoen, possibly the most boring man on Earth. So she quickly rectified the situation by leaving the dour German-born butcher to start a new life. A good thing, too, now that America's at war with Adolf Hitler and Walter's loyalty to his adopted country was always questionable. Even better, now U.S. Marshal Carl Webster wants to come up to Honey's room for an official "chat"...and for something more intimate, if Honey has anything to say about it.
The feds' legendary "Hot Kid," Carl's hunting two German POWs who escaped from an Oklahoma internment camp. Maybe Honey's estranged hubby knows something. Maybe Honey knows something. Maybe Carl can stay faithful to his wife. Or maybe they're all about to get tangled up — along with a sultry Ukrainian spy and her transvestite manservant — in a nutty assassination plot that can't possibly succeed...
"Set in the waning days of WWII, bestseller Leonard's disappointing 40th novel finds gunslinging U.S. marshal Carl Webster, introduced in 2005's The Hot Kid, on the trail of Jurgen Schrenk and Otto Penzler, German POWs escaped from their Okmulgee, Okla., detention camp. The pair wind up in Detroit in the care of Walter Schoen, a butcher and Himmler look-alike, with whose ex-wife, wisecracking bottle-blonde Honey Deal, Carl soon finds himself smitten. While married Carl contemplates breaking his marriage vows (Honey does anything but dissuade him), Otto disappears and a dysfunctional German spy ring — led by hard-drinking Vera Mezwa and her cross-dressing manservant, Bohdan — cozies up with Jurgen. Vera and Bohdan, meanwhile, are secretly planning to disappear, but Bohdan wants to put in the ground anyone who could later give them up to the Feds. Leonard's writing — line by line — is as sharp as ever, but the plotting is uncharacteristically clunky and the pacing is stuck in low gear. Leonard has written a lot of great books, but this isn't one of them." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"I'm not going to say that this is the best novel Elmore Leonard ever wrote, or even that it's in his top 10. But reading 'Up in Honey's Room' is like dancing with the stars, and he's the star. You don't have to teach him anything or look for flaws in the smoothness of his steps or watch to see whether there will be gaps in his plots, or whether his characters will — if even for an instant — slip... Washington Post Book Review (read the entire Washington Post review) out of character. You just get to be lost in the dance with him as he gives unimaginable depth and dimension to the phrase 'easily and effortlessly.' He leads; you follow. It's late in Elmore Leonard's life; he's written more than 40 books in his 80-plus years. And 'Up in Honey's Room' is a smiling diversion, written as much for himself as anybody else — a reprise, a roundup, a trip down his own memory lane. The novel is a sequel (at least in theory), another adventure of Carl Webster, a federal marshal lately out of Oklahoma who has killed so many crooks in his day that he's gotten a book written about him and been dubbed 'The Hot Kid' by the feckless press. Carl's dad is a pecan farmer, and they hang out a lot together when Carl's not crime-fighting. But this novel is set in the last year or so of World War II, and Carl sets out to catch a couple of escaped German prisoners who appear to have gone to Detroit to make contact with a German spy ring. And what a sketchy gang of spies this is. There's some crazy dude who hates African Americans beyond words but who spends all his time in black brothels; Vera, who's not German at all but a Ukrainian femme fatale; her young lover Bohdan, who's seen too much killing in the European Theater and usually settles his nerves by dressing in women's clothes. Then there's the pathetic Walter Schoen, who runs a butcher shop and whose greatest pride in life is that he's a dead ringer for the odious war criminal Heinrich Himmler. The escaped prisoners of war are Otto and Jurgen, pretty nice guys actually. Since the war is almost over, much of what drives this plot is going to become moot in a matter of months. Everybody's thinking, albeit idly, about what they're going to do when Germany surrenders. What's the girl named Honey got to do with any of this? Back in the day, she was married to the dimwit Walter, who based his sense of humor on his own chronic flatulence. Soon enough, Honey realized her mistake and dumped him. She lives independently now, in an upstairs apartment, from the income she makes selling 'better dresses' in Hudson's Department Store. Carl, looking for Jurgen and Otto, happens to question Honey about her loser, Heinrich Himmler-lookalike ex-husband. Carl's as darling as they come, it goes without saying, and Honey makes it a personal goal to see whether she can entice him into the sack. But Carl is married now, to a brave and plucky military sharpshooter named Louly, and he's promised her — within reason — to remain faithful. With the exception of Louly, these characters roam through wartime Detroit, eating good restaurant dinners, drinking good liquor, shooting at each other. As always in Leonard novels, there's a subplot that tells us stuff we might not have ever thought about — how the world actually works or might work. Sometimes it's the undertaking business or bounty hunting or how to raise grapefruit; in this case, it's the American meat business and how the war, rationing and the black market have changed it. There's a new kind of cattle rustling going on, which doesn't involve horses and lassos and all that, but pickup trucks and old barns turned into improvised abattoirs. Walter has been freelancing in this enterprise and so has Honey's ex-con brother, Darcy, who remarks, in conversation with Jurgen: 'I'm an outlaw. I been one since I was a kid. I stole cars, I sold moonshine, I hit guys.' Jurgen takes a shine to Darcy's spurs. The German doesn't want to become a criminal, but being a cowboy sounds like fun. Or maybe a rodeo rider? It seems as though it would be a drag to go back to the old country after the war. And so it goes. The author lets his characters talk about literature; he depicts father-and-son scenes with Carl and his dad; he manages to get four or five people senselessly murdered. He sets up what might turn out to be a massacre in which several characters must remove their clothes before anything else happens. (The author seems to love these naked scenes; in another of his books, there's a holdup in a posh country club where the rich are forced to reveal their paunches. But up in Honey's room, folks just strip and go on talking, being cool.) We see Jurgen turn into an ever more likable guy. He's an explorer in the New World, full of curiosity about everything he sees. Is there an allusion here to James Branch Cabell's 'Jurgen,' literary seeker from the first part of the past century? Could be. This book is full of nostalgia. We hear about the then-famous Norden Bombsight and get extra information about the 6.5 Mannlicher (a rifle that killed more than one person in my own family). We hear Billie Holiday records and Bob Crosby and the Bob Cats. We see Vera wearing a Persian lamb coat. It's World War II the way we wish it had been, with men as competent as they are handsome and women amorous and good-natured, never gooey. In a way, you can't call the works of Elmore Leonard 'literature.' That would be a kind of insult. These are healing moments caught between book covers. Minor and major miracles. The works of a genuine star." Reviewed by Kevin Allman, a frequent mystery reviewerJames A. Miller, who is chairman of the American studies department at George Washington University.Carolyn See, who can be reached at www.carolynsee.com, Washington Post Book World (Copyright 2006 Washington Post Book World Service/Washington Post Writers Group)

"It's as if the best of Mel Brooks and Quentin Tarantino were refined into something altogether finer and purer....If there is a little more slapstick and a little less crime here than usual, it hardly matters. The talk's the thing. Leonard hooks you with his first quotation mark." Booklist (Starred Review)
"Leonard's novels give you a better feel for America than any of the brooding fictional meditations on the emptiness of suburbia come close to doing....Leonard also has a keener eye for the absurd than any French existentialist has ever had. To wit: He never, ever fails to see the humor in it." Philadelphia Inquirer
"Now in his 80s, and with 43 books to his credit, Leonard springs eternal. His new novel...is both enterprising and lively." Los Angeles Times
"Fast moving, cold-blooded and comic, the action swerves and leaps from one character's adventure to another's, bringing echoes of the major events and everyday life of Detroit and America in the 1940s." Rocky Mountain News
"Leonard clearly loves these characters, and makes their interactions believable and a blast to read." Boston Globe
"Leonard's dialogue is so sharp and jazzy that it's a pleasure listening to his people zing each other into submission." Oregonian
German-born Walter Schoen, now living in Detroit, is a dead ringer for Heinrich Himmler. Along comes Carl Webster, the hot kid of the Marshal's Service, looking for a German officer who escaped from a POW camp in Oklahoma. All Carl wants is to get his man without getting shot. Now in a tall Premium Edition.

Result of Study on the feasibility of a leather labelling system at European level Published on: 01/02/2013
The European Commission has published the results of a study on the labelling of leather products. This study aims at assessing the need and the feasibility of labelling in the field of leather products.
As the focus of this study is consumer labelling, the leather market has been limited to final consumer products liable to carry a label and the specific types of labelling covered by the study include:
• country of origin labelling
• traceability labelling
• environmental labelling
• social labelling
• authenticity ('real leather') labelling and
• animal species labelling
The study describes and assesses:
• the problems that a single European leather label can address;
• to which extent such a label should be accompanied by the specific forms of labelling outlined above;
• the role the EU should play in the elaboration of that labelling system;
• the costs and benefits of different levels of harmonisation of leather labelling in the EU.

Cyclizine is used to prevent or treat nausea, vomiting, and dizziness caused by motion sickness. It may also be used to reduce lightheadedness, dizziness, and loss of balance (vertigo) caused by diseases that affect the inner ear. This medication works on the area of the brain that controls nausea and vomiting and on the inner ear to decrease these symptoms. Cyclizine belongs to a class of drugs known as antihistamines.
Check the ingredients on the label even if you have used the product before. The manufacturer may have changed the ingredients. Also, products with similar names may contain different ingredients meant for different purposes. Taking the wrong product could harm you.
If you are taking the over-the-counter product to self-treat, read all directions on the product package before taking this medication. If you have any questions, consult your pharmacist. If your doctor has prescribed this medication, take it by mouth as directed.
The dosage is based on your age, medical condition, and response to treatment. To prevent motion sickness, take a dose of cyclizine about 30 minutes before starting an activity such as traveling. Adults and children 12 years old and over should not take more than 200 milligrams in 24 hours. Children 6 years to under 12 years old should not take more than 75 milligrams in 24 hours. Children under 6 years old should not take this medication unless directed by the doctor. Do not increase your dose or use this drug more often or for longer than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and your risk of side effects will increase.
If your condition persists or worsens, or if you think you may have a serious medical problem, get medical help right away.
Drowsiness, dry mouth, tiredness, or blurred vision may occur. Some people, especially children, may experience unusual excitement rather than drowsiness. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
To relieve dry mouth, suck (sugarless) hard candy or ice chips, chew (sugarless) gum, drink water, or use a saliva substitute.
If your doctor has directed you to use this medication, remember that he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.

If you have a hard time picking out your car or truck from all the like models in the parking lot, maybe it's time to give your ride a personal touch; an identity that makes it uniquely yours. These LED Tail Lights from Spyder are a great way to start your vehicle on the path to exclusivity. For a small amount of cash, time and effort these lights will transform the back of your chariot and give it a look that's far from what rolled off the assembly line. The designers at Spyder create their lights for each specific make and model, ensuring that the styling will be much more interesting than what the factory imagined but at the same time complement your vehicle's fine lines.
These lights include the style, superior illumination and added safety that you can only get from LED lights. LED lights are the most advanced form of lighting. Their compact size makes it easy to arrange them in distinctive patterns, as seen on many late model luxury cars. They're extremely durable, with an average lifespan of 50,000-75,000 hours, which means they'll probably outlast the rest of your vehicle. The light they produce is much brighter and cleaner, much more attractive than incandescent light. The pattern of the LEDs in these lights is unique, so your ride will command attention wherever you go. But one feature makes LEDs particularly appropriate for tail light/stop light use: LEDs rise to their full intensity approximately 200 milliseconds faster than incandescent bulbs. This may not sound like a lot of time, but it may only be a split second that's needed for the driver behind you to see your stop lights and react to avoid an accident.
Every Spyder tail light undergoes a rigorous testing and quality control process before it leaves the factory. All wiring is tested to make sure the light is completely functional, and the housing is sealed with high quality silicone to ensure that no moisture can become trapped inside. Spyder lights are approved by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and ISO-9000 and ISO-9002 certified. They meet all U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, and are compliant with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 108. Spyder tail lights are designed to exactly replace your factory lights; however some electrical wiring work may be required. Most lights come with detailed instructions to guide you through the installation. They're covered against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 1 Year (If purchased after 3-1-2015) following the original purchase date.218.58Brand: Spyder Part Number: ALT-YD-MRX793-LED-BK UPC: 847245006547 This part is compatible with 9 vehicle(s)

One of Vermont's most accessible ski resorts, Mount Snow is four hours from New York City and two and a half hours from Boston.
Along Vermont's scenic Route 100, a local in a red flannel shirt and grease-stained jeans starts his day by kicking the last of his driveway snowbank to pieces, hoping it will melt in the bright sun. It's only early spring, but some people are just over winter. I am not one of them.
Especially since learning that Mount Snow has invested more than $8.5 million in state-of-the-art snowmaking equipment over the past two years. It's time to check back in: It's been three decades since I last visited the mountain so popular with metro New Yorkers.
The 2009-2010 ski season is officially on. With temperatures dipping in the Rockies, Colorado's Loveland ski area turned on its snowguns yesterday—apparently the first resort in the country to do so—and started putting down snow. The omens are good: Loveland fired up its guns a full three days earlier than last season. We couldn't be happier.
Despite mentions of one Vermont ski area closing - - count on 100% open operations across the 20 alpine and 29 Nordic ski areas this weekend.
Blue-bird skies and temperatures returning to more comfortable seasonable levels will greet skiers and riders this weekend as resorts are warming up their slopes for that extra day to enjoy the snow.

CALGARY, AB – October 7, 2008 – Ski season is on its way, with snow falling at Fernie Alpine Resort on Tuesday. With a whopping 1,118cm (37 feet) of snow last season, we can hardly wait to get going this year!
Getting to Fernie's Legendary Powder is now even easier. Fernie Alpine Resort is pleased to announce new direct service on Delta Airlines between Salt Lake City, UT and the Canadian Rockies International Airport in Cranbrook, BC starting on December 17, 2008.
TRUCKEE, Calif. – Northstar Resort has invested more than $15 million in on-mountain and village improvements that will benefit skiers and riders during the 2008-09 winter season.
Tour operators are warning that the February school holiday week in 2009 is going to be tricky as nearly all schools in the UK have the same week off- when usually the holidays are spread over at least a fortnight. The message is that availability will be low and prices high, already visible if you go to a 'low cost' airline website and try to book a flight to the Alps around Valentine's Day, returning a week later. The message from Europe's leading snow report provider, http://www.skiinfo.com target=_blank>skiinfo.com, is why wait?

The lotus is called padma in both Sanskrit and Tibetan. Rooted in muddy slime, the lotus rises through water to emerge into the sun, a progress that mirrors the journey of man's soul. Mired in suffering and sin, we pass through varied experiences before emerging into the sun of enlightenment. It is said that our hearts are like the closed petals of a lotus. Imbibing Buddhist virtues will enable the lotus to blossom into its full beauty. This is why the Buddha is often depicted seated on a lotus.

Thanks for the link Daniel! I have a neo air all season and also hate the inflation bag. I have long wondered why there wasn't something similar to the Alpacka packraft inflation bag, but scaled down, for these lightweight cold-weather mats. This is what the Exped Schnozzle appears to be. The instaflator seems a fine alternative, but as exped shows, no need to involve batteries and moving parts.
"The instaflator seems a fine alternative, but as exped shows, no need to involve batteries and moving parts."James, the instaflator does not have batteries or moving parts. As a matter of fact, it's a very simplified version of the schnozzle. Are you confusing the camptek microburst with the instaflator? Keep in mind the schnozzle will likely not work with thermarests since exped uses its own proprietary nozzle.
FYI, this is the link to buy the real Instaflator that Konrad is referring to.http://www.celestaire.com/vmchk/Cool-Things/Instaflator/vmj_estore.tpl.html
Randy,I hope its the same one that I just bought off Amazon. They claim it to be the "new version". Whatever that means. The one I see in your link looks exactly like the one that I bought from Leslies Pool Supply last year.
Thanks Konrad! I was indeed thinking of the camptek microburst. And thanks for the link Randy. That instaflator bag looks larger than I hoped, but might do the trick.
I know it's Hella light and all, but I'm always trying to avoid single-purpose items.
Not much, but I use my Instaflator as a stuff sack to store the XTherm. I'm not really worried about wear from abrasion, but I try to baby my inflatables.
>Clayton, when I first read this I was wondering how little weight you could save by>cutting the Instaflator in halfIf memory serves, I saved somewhere slightly more than half an ounce. It's really not much, but it just made the Instaflator simpler as well as easier to use.I've saved enough weight that my priority these days is keeping my kit simple and easy to use. I've gained a few ounces on some things, saved a few on others, but my hiking has fewer parts than it used to.
I haven't tried it yet, but I see no reason why my plastic pack liner couldn't work nearly as well as these pump sacks by cinching the top of the inflated pack liner around the pad nozzle with thumb and forefinger, or just as well with the simple addition of a nozzle to the bottom of it. Costs about a dollar and it's something I already carry with me.For the instaflator: it seems you could customize the length of the device to suit the exact volume of your pad depending on how many separate fills of the instaflator you were willing to deal with to inflate your pad each night.
Edited by AttaboyBrad on 03/31/2013 17:52:30 MDT.
A pack liner would work. Just cut the corner, and the nozzle from an Instaflator would install easily. I'm sure you could work something up with other nozzles too.I imagine the shape might be difficult to pump through. My sense is that the long narrow shape is ideal, and the much wider chape of a pack liner might be less so. But you could buy an instaflator and test out the nozzle with a pack liner. If you didn't like it, you could re-install it on the Instaflator easily.

My Xtherm is a few months old and unless the pump sack design has changed, I find it to perform just fine. I can inflate the pad pretty quickly and I can keep warm, moist, bacteria ridden air out of the pad. Oral inflation never seemed to have any effect on any of my old foam-based Therm-a-rests, but the NeoAir mattresses are much lighter and delicate so I've switched to the pump sack and have zero issues.
"I am surprised folks are finding new reasons to buy more stuff. NOT!!"I personally take great pride in seeing my $3 circulate through the U.S. economy.
So I just looked at the XTherm stuff sack, and the valve is easily removable. So, if you already have the XTherm, I'd try that with a pack liner first.Personally, I never bothered with it since I already had the Instaflator, and the pump sack was pretty obviously a pain to use. Good to know I have that option though.
I bought a medium XTherm last summer and have been using it in warm and cold weather. I am 6' 1" and the medium is only 66" long, but it works for me since I am a scrunched up side sleeper. If I lay on it on flat on my back, my feet hang off the end, but I can't sleep in that position. Well I could, but then I would sound like a bull Elephant in heat.I tried the stuff sack pump that came with it, but after 20 minutes of torture, I yelled pinche cabron and threw it against the wall where it slid into ignominious defeat behind the couch. I suppose it is still there.Then I obtained an Instaflator, which was cheap and worked fine. Next I saw a comment from Ray Estrella touting the Microburst, and I thought, hmm not much heavier than the Instaflator, but totally decadent, just set it and forget it and if it's good enough for Ray, it's good enough for me. So I got one of those, it works fine, and I have been using it ever since, although some of my backpacking buddies ridicule me for being decadent, then they ask to borrow it.
John Coyle, I think you're the cleverest person on this forum.
Where does the air go? I'm wondering with the stock pump/stuff sack, where does all that air go that is trapped after you start rolling it up? Fabric too porous, leak out around the valve? Anyone check? Thoughts.Duane
