SOUTH BURLINGTON–The last time North Country and South Burlington met in the play-offs at the Cairns Arena, the game went into double overtime and the Falcons came away victorious.
This time around, the game went into triple overtime, and unfortunately for the maroon and blue, the Rebels were able to avenge their 2012 loss, winning 3-2 to advance to the Division I state championship game against CVU.
Said NCU coach Andrew Roy, "They gave everything they had, and I could not have possibly asked for more, and I am very proud of the performance they gave.
WHITE RIVER–Hartford got off to an 11-0 start in the first, and although Lake Region would battle back, making it 26-26 in third, the Hurricanes were just too strong, as they cruised to the 60-39 quarter-final win.
"They played tough defense, and as much as we tried to prepare the girls for it, we struggled early in the game before settling down," said LRU coach Mark Tinker. "Hopefully it is a good learning experience for the ones coming back, and an unfortunate ending for the ones that are graduating."
While both games ended with identical 3-2 scores, the fortunes of North Country's two hockey teams were as different as night and day.
The good news is that at least one team will make an appearance at the Gutterson Field House, as the girls won their semi-final game against Middlebury.
For the boys, they fell just short in their journey to the finals, losing a heartfelt game in triple overtime to South Burlington.
Updates to come online, and the full stories will be in Monday's Express on the 11th of March, 2013.
WHITE RIVER-The Lady Rangers lost to Hartford 60-39 in the Division II quarter-finals on Friday night.
The full story will be in Monday's Express on March 11, 2013.
For updates of the NCU boy's semi-final game against South Burlington on Saturday March 9th, follow me on Twitter at @nekdrums.
JAY–Whitney Bernier scored twice, and Cassidy Webster notched her first career varsity goal as the North Country Falcons advanced to the Lake Division semi-finals with a 5-0 win over Stowe on Wednesday night.
Mikaella Doran had 5 saves to earn her 10th shut-out of season, while Danielle Mayo turned away 36 shots for Stowe, who finish the year at 6-14.
With the win, the 15-6-1 Falcons will host fifth ranked Middlebury who upset Rutland 2-1 in overtime on Wednesday.
Game time is set for 2:00 on Saturday afternoon at the Jay Peak Ice Haus Arena.
JAY–the North Country-Colchester quarter-final game at the Ice Haus Arena was a place where hockey cliche´s went to die.
The two goal lead is the most dangerous lead in hockey, and it is hard to beat a team three times in a row, two of the most common phrases in the game, were both vanquished as the Falcons earned the 3-1 win.
North Country played a good chunk of the game up by two goals (that's one), defeated Colchester for the third straight time this year (that's two), and now have earned a date with South Burlington on Saturday afternoon.
BARRE-They fought the good fight, but in the end, size and speed from Burr and Burton ended the Lake Region Rangers run, 80-62 in the Division two semi–finals Wednesday night at the legendary Barre Auditorium. The number two seeded Bulldogs erased a five point Ranger lead and went on a 20-2 tear through the second period, and LRU was never able to get any closer than eight points the rest of the evening.
The Rangers got 17 from Clint Provoncha, 13 from Caleb Prue, 12 from Drew Gallup and six from Alex Beauregard.
BURLINGTON–North Country's foray into the 2013 post-season came to a close on Wednesday night, as they fell to the Burlington Seahorses.
"We didn't win, but it is nice to be associated with a great group of girls," said NCU coach Christiane Brown.
Offense was hard to come by for the Falcons in the first half, as they managed only twelve points in the opening sixteen minutes.
Things would get betting in the second half, as the Falcons would eventually out-score the Seahorses 13-12 in the final quarter, but by then it was too late.
Hi Folks,
Here is a quick round-up of what happened on Wednesday night.
For hockey fans, it was a great night at the Ice Haus, as a packed house witnessed the Falcons win both ends of the doubleheader.
The girls defeated Stowe 5-0, and the boys took down Colchester 3-1.
Turning to the hard-court, Craftsbury's girls defeated South Royalton 34-31, in what coach Rick Thomas said was the first "true home play-off game" for his team.
ORLEANS-It hasn't always been pretty.
But it has been effective. And you are, in sports, what you are in terms of record.
With that said the Lady Rangers are a pretty good little ballclub as they advanced Tuesday thru their playoff bracket.
Lake Region withstood a late Springfield rally to advance to the Division Two quarter-finals after a 51-48 play-down victory.
LRU got 18 points from Drew Neal and some clutch play in the waning moments from senior Sarah Burnham, as the blue and white achieved their 17th win against 4 defeats this winter.

EU move on Hezbollah applauded, questioned
It may have taken an attack on European soil and the potential for a second to prompt the European Union to act, but the continent's governments agreed to place the armed wing of Hezbollah on its terrorism blacklist.
The move by 28 nations meeting in Brussels means any assets of the Lebanon-based organization will be frozen.
Canada, which had listed Hezbollah – including its political and social wings – as a terrorist entity in 2002, applauded the step.
"Canada welcomes the EU's courageous decision to list the military wing of Hezbollah as a terrorist entity," said Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird.
"Hezbollah's foiled plot in Cyprus and its tragic bombing of a tourist bus in Bulgaria last year are but two examples of Hezbollah's growing global reach. It has long played a destabilizing role around the world, and in close partnership with the regressive clerical dictatorship of Iran actively assists [Syrian President Bashir] Assad in the brutal murder of countless civilians in Syria."
The Bulgaria bus attack killed five Israeli tourists and a Bulgarian driver.
Britain and the Netherlands had been pushing for the terrorist designation since May, as they cited evidence Hezbollah was behind the Bulgaria attack.
Canada too had been urging EU nations to act against Hezbollah, said David Cooper, director of government relations for the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA).
"For us, apart from the Canadian position, we're still concerned about the distinction the EU made between the military and political and social wings," he said. "It's a distinction Hezbollah does not make, and it's completely artificial."
Cooper said Hezbollah operatives straddle both wings. He cited a "Mr. X who one day could be recruiting people into the military wing while at the same time running a school."
B'nai Brith Canada said the EU was moving "in the wrong direction, ignoring both the Iranian patronage and terrorist methodology of Hezbollah."
It said that "only the listing of the entire entity of Hezbollah could hope to combat its ongoing international terrorism activities.
"While some may view this as a positive step, giving false legitimacy to Hezbollah's supposedly non-violent wings only serves to weaken international efforts to combat terror and strengthens Iran's global ambitions," said Frank Dimant, B'nai Brith's CEO.
While the EU had been urged to act against Hezbollah, others had cautioned the move could harm relations with Lebanon and perhaps destabilize the country. Hezbollah's political branch is part of the coalition governing the country.
Cooper noted that some linked the EU blacklist to guidelines the organization announced earlier that explicitly banned any EU funding of and co-operation with Israeli institutions operating in territories beyond the pre-1967 lines.
The suggestion among some analysts is that the EU felt it could not act against Hezbollah without also sanctioning Israel, he said.
In other developments, Baird offered Canada's support to Israel and the Palestinians as they try to restart peace negotiations.
CTV reported that Baird phoned cabinet ministers from both sides – Palestinian Authority's Riyad al-Malki and Israel's chief negotiator, Justice Minister Tzipi Livni, saying Canada is ready to assist any way it can.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has been meeting both sides in a bid to kickstart negotiations.
But he cautioned the details are still being worked out. "The agreement is still in the process of being formalized, so we are absolutely not going to talk about any of the elements now," Kerry said.

Any idea what it is worth? Ugo Zaccagnini Lamp
Hi, Does any body know what this lamp is worth? From the research I've done, the markings indicate it was made sometime between 1905 and 1937 by Ugo Zaccagnini. Of course, I always seem to find the "rare" items that you can't find any where! Thanks for any help
02-05-2012 #2Lynn RosackGuest
I believe this particular FUMZ logo was used during the years 1937 to late 1950s. From looking at the type of electrical cord and hardware on your lamp it would appear to have been made towards the end of that era.
This site has information on Italian Pottery Marks: Italian Pottery Marks • View topic - History of the Ugo Zaccagnini Factory
And here are some results for Ugo Zaccagnini Lamp from the Worthopedia Price Guide:

Thanks, I found a website that has an article on Ugo Zaccagnini and it says this pottery mark was actually from 1905-1937 when he was in business with his children. I think that's why I'm having a hard time comparing it since most of the ones I find are from 1937-50. Here's the link in case anybody else want to read about Ugo Z.

You're correct on the dates, 1905-1937 according to that website.
I still think the hardware and wiring on your lamp will provide the best clues as to age (unless it was renovated and rewired).
Good luck in your research!

Your probably right on the hardware. The harp doesn't sit just right. I guess I'll just keep looking. Thanks!

Uncirculated Coin Set 2013
- Contains 28 uncirculated coins
- Minted at the United States Mint at Philadelphia (14) and Denver (14)
- Sets in each folder are the fourth annual release of the America the Beautiful Quarters, the seventh annual release from the Presidential $1 Coin Program, one Native American $1 Coin, a Kennedy half-dollar, a Roosevelt dime, a Jefferson nickel, and a Lincoln penny
- This product is available for Product Enrollment, sign up now.
This item is currently not available.
The 2013 United States Mint Uncirculated Coin Set® includes two newly designed folders containing 14 coins each. One folder is from the U.S. Mint at Philadelphia and the other is from the U.S. Mint at Denver, for a total of (28) coins in uncirculated quality.
The 2013 edition of the U.S. Mint Uncirculated Coin Set features the following coins in each folder:
- The fourth annual release of five quarters in the America the Beautiful Quarters® Program;
- The seventh annual release of four coins from the Presidential $1 Coin Program;
- One Native American $1 Coin, Kennedy half-dollar, Roosevelt dime, Jefferson nickel, and Lincoln penny.
Each coin in the quarter series features a common obverse (heads) with the 1932 portrait of George Washington by John Flanagan, which has been restored to bring out subtle details and the beauty of the original model. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "QUARTER DOLLAR."
The 2013 reverse (tails) of these coins honors the sites below with the following designs:
White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire:
This design depicts Mt. Chocorua, the easternmost peak of the Sandwich Range, framed by birch trees. It is an iconic view of the White Mountain National Forest system lands. Inscriptions are "WHITE MOUNTAIN," "NEW HAMPSHIRE," "2013," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
Perry's Victory and International Peace Memorial in Ohio:
This design features the statue of Master Commandant Oliver Hazard Perry with the Peace Memorial located in the distance. The memorial is one of the tallest of its kind in the US Inscriptions are "PERRY'S VICTORY," "OHIO," "2013," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
Great Basin National Park in Nevada:
This design features the beauty and unique qualities of a single Bristlecone Pine tree and shows the rocky glacial moraines where the this type of tree grows. Bristlecone pines grow at a higher elevation in the park than other trees and are some of the world's oldest trees. The park contains numerous bristlecone pine groves with trees older than 4,000 years. Inscriptions are "GREAT BASIN," "NEVADA," "2013," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine in Maryland:
This design represents the site during the Defenders' Day celebration, considered the centerpiece annual event held at Fort McHenry. The fireworks symbolize the rocket's red glare, linking the fort to its historic past. Inscriptions are "FORT McHENRY," "MARYLAND," "2013," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
Mount Rushmore National Memorial in South Dakota:
This design was inspired by photos of men who are adding the final details to Thomas Jefferson's face. Mount Rushmore was featured on three 1991 Mount Rushmore Golden Anniversary Commemorative Coins and on the 2006 South Dakota quarter issued under the 50 State Quarters® Program. This new design is distinctly different and offers a unique and educational perspective on how Mount Rushmore was created and sculpted. Inscriptions are "MOUNT RUSHMORE," "SOUTH DAKOTA," "2013," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
Each coin in the Presidential $1 Coin Program has a common reverse (tails) design featuring a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty. These 2013 coins feature large, dramatic artwork as well as edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting or issuance, "E PLURIBUS UNUM," and the mint mark. "IN GOD WE TRUST" appears on the face of the coin.
The 2013 obverses (heads) design of these coins honor these presidents:
William McKinley:
This design features an image of William McKinley with the inscriptions "WILLIAM MCKINLEY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," "25th PRESIDENT," and "1897-1901."
Theodore Roosevelt:
This design features an image of Theodore Roosevelt with the inscriptions "THEODORE ROOSEVELT," "IN GOD WE TRUST," "26th PRESIDENT," and "1901-1909."
William Howard Taft:
This design features an image of William Howard Taft with the inscriptions "WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT," "IN GOD WE TRUST," "27th PRESIDENT," and "1909-1913."
Woodrow Wilson:
This design features an image of Woodrow Wilson with the inscriptions "WOODROW WILSON," "IN GOD WE TRUST," "28th PRESIDENT," and "1913-1921."
The obverse (heads) design of the Native American $1 Coin retains the central figure of the "Sacagawea" design first produced in 2000 with the inscriptions "LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST." The 2013 Native American reverse (tails) design is entitled Delaware Treaty (1778) and features a turkey, howling wolf, and turtle (all symbols of the clans of the Delaware Tribe), as well as a ring of 13 stars to represent the Colonies.
There are no design changes to the half-dollar, dime, nickel, or penny.
U.S. Mint uncirculated coins are struck on special presses using greater force than what is used for circulating coins, producing a sharp, intricately detailed image. The coins are sealed in blisters and displayed in folders.

TURBO Big Twin Flathead at Bonneville
Thought that some of you might like to see this 1938 Flathead that is turbo charged that runs at Bonneville. Owned by David Pilgrim of Rockport, Texas. Over the past 6 years this bike has raced at Bonneville, the Texas Mile & the Maxton mile in various configurations and has set 21 records under the title "Bonneville Bobber". We built the motor, designed & build the cams and have been maintaining it for 6 racing years. David has yet to run at anywhere near full boost with it....he's easing into it gingerly, so we have yet to see just what speeds she will reach. To date her fastest speed is 151.571MPH (& that was attained at Bonneville). Regards Paul http://www.americancyclefab.com

Throw this one out there, has anyone tried boiling water using a stainless steel water bottle?Usually carry a water bottle attached to shoulder strap and now experimenting with minimal gear set up.Figured this would be used without a stove but with a small fire for boiling water for dinner while traveling solo.Thinking a titanium water bottle would be pretty sweet for this type of setup.
I used to have a spun aluminum bottle that I used for this very purpose. Can't find them now. Everything seems to have an internal coating that I don't trust in extreme heat. It did work well.
Kleen Kanteens can be used for that purpose - look online, they talk about it. You need a single walled one, no lining. (Which they make!)
Thanks Sarah!perfect for FB cooking, solo in the backcountry!
Edited by florigen on 03/15/2009 21:12:38 MDT.
Kleen Canteens are cool but too heavy. The 27 oz. capacity one weights 8 oz.! I wish someone made a titanium version. :(
Have you checked out the stainless steel canteens by Guyot Designs? They weight less than the Kleen products are are similar in shape to the standard nalgene.http://www.guyotdesigns.com/stainlessbottles
lightest i can find is made by Earthlust - from a review:"The Earthlust bottle is made of #304 food grade stainless steel. Since the steel walls are a little thinner than most stainless steel water bottles they are not as durable, but are very light. I highly recommend these water bottles for people that want a light stainless steel water bottle. The 13oz weighs only 3.6oz, the 20oz weighs 4.9oz and the 1-liter weighs 7.7oz."http://safewaterbottlereview.com/reviews/earthlust-stainless-steel-water-bottle-review/
Thanks Jason and Ignacio for the imput on Kleen and Guyout designs. Was just going back and forth with another BPL reader on the weight on Kleen products.Found a stainless steel water bottle at Target that is in the 5-6 oz range that will be testing this weekend, seems to be the same material used in the Kleen bottles and holds 24oz.Cary, looks pretty close to what I picked up without any type of exterior graphics or coating. Like the fact that the plastic top is detachable so it can be taken off while bottle is heating water
Edited by florigen on 03/16/2009 15:12:54 MDT.
I've done this with an older style Sigg Aluminum storage bottle (no inside coating). Bottle weighs 3.4 oz (with cap), holds about 22oz and being aluminum is a good heat conductor. Bottle does triple duty--(1) water storage (2) vertical boiler and (3) hot water bottle w/o risk of failure. I've only heated/boiled water in the coals of a small fire—stove use would be tricky for this shape.
If you want a really light SS bottle, and don't mind some creative modifications, get one of the cheapish SS vacuum flasks and cut the tip of the neck away very carefully. The metal is very thin-walled. A Dremel or a fine grinder might be suitable, applied right at the top. Further mods may be needed for a rim.Cheers
Kind of tied into the other thread running about using hot water to keep warm.Although not a dual purpose item, a pair of Nunatek down slippers weigh 3.5oz, less than a lot of these bottles, and they won't cool off during the night, and there is no chance of them leaking water.A Caldera Key weighs 6.7 oz for a complete cook system sans fuel, and a 1L Platy and a 2L Platy combined weigh 2.3 oz. Total weight of everything is 12.5 oz. Now the challenge is to keep your water from freezing in the Platys.Just some options to think about.
Edited by ngatel on 03/16/2009 16:18:15 MDT.
Roger:Neat idea! One could also spray paint this modified bottle black (high-temp paint) and preheat your water/bottle in the sun (inside a clear plastic bag). Might save some fuel...
Edited by Steve on 12/11/2011 09:18:46 MST.
Lots of great input, thanks for all the feedback.Top reason for this approach is shear simplicity. Rational for cooking set up would be to pack a water bottle which is used throughout the day, doubles as a cook pot at night & only additional item would be a long handled spoon for eating out of freezer bags. Small cooking fire with hot coal bed would replace a stove. Fire starting supplies would also be required, but this is usually packed anyways.Golite VO24 shown is packed with enough gear and food for 2 full days out in current southeast conditions (50/60 during the day, lower 40's at night)
Jim, I was wondering about your intended purpose for the bottle. As I read your last post (cooking in addition to boiling water), I would recommend one with a wide mouth, so that you don't have to do lose your temper trying to extract food bits from your soup...I was looking for a similar product which offers the same versatility for my kit. Thus far, the Guyot Designs is the closest to what I had in mind, but I'd be certainly happy to see other options.Cheers
Awesome old thread.I've been looking for an alternative to my kleen kanteen for my ultralight cook kit. Have tried Venom Energy drinks with a wire twine handle and at 2.3oz it is superbly light and can boil water like a deamon (2min/ 2 cups) since it sits down inside my wood wood burner. Indeed with boil times faster then any production stove it turns the "slow" wood stove myths, and the "inefficient" small bottom pot myths up side down. It's not rocket science, it's simply getting back to the basics.And it also works as a water bottle.However... the Venom energy drink bottle doesn't hold enough water for my needs during the day.Likewise the 27oz kleen kanteen, while awesome, indestructible and superb as a boiler weighs 8oz. What I'm looking for is something bigger and/or lighter then the kleen kanteen. Say 1L/34oz or even 1.5L/48oz. The wider the mouth the better.There are some good mentions in this thread, but a lot of them are no longer available.The closest thing I can find are the Sigg wide mouth aluminum bottles in 1.5L and 1L.== Sigg wide mouth aluminum water bottles ==1.5Lhttp://mysigg.com/store/sigg-large-alu-wide-mouth.html1Lhttp://mysigg.com/store/bottles/wide-mouth-black-touch-swiss-cross.htmlI suspect that they like most have some sort of coating on the inside, but I can find nothing on their care instructions that says "do not boil water in" or "do not place in fire", nor any mention of an inner coating or liner: http://mysigg.com/about/care-instructions/I'm thinking I may just have to try the 1L one. I figure worst case scenario I burn off all the internal coating. I don't suspect it'll corrode, but I wonder about any possible health concerns with long term use.So... the rest of the cook kit.== the cook kit ==So, to understand the why of the pot you have to see the cook kit.I think I have it paired down and dialed in pretty well.# 2oz titanium wood stove# .6oz platypus bowl / mug# .6oz and now .3oz lightload towels# 2.3oz Venom Energy drink pot / water bottle*Venom bottle included wire twine handle and bottle capPlus a mini bic lighter, with a spare in my first aid kit ;)Titanium stakes... also handy for grill top, staking down the stove for extra stability, and simply adjusting the diameter of the stove to dial efficiency and burn time.An ounce or so of aluminum foil... always handy.With this setup there is no need to carry fuel. No need to carry tinder since I have plenty of things in my kit I can use as tinder and fire starter... i.e. petrolium based oinments, ubiquitous plastic bags, twine / paracord, toilet paper, etc, etc, etc.I do often collect bits of my favorite natural flameables toward the end of the day or if I think it'll be raining when I make camp. I call this being a "wood gourmand". I love the smell of hickory in the evening. Indeed I love sampling all the different woods and it stimulates more thought and attention in identifying flora and fauna. Scent is a key to memory... nothing like the memories and smells of unique wood types on different trips and in different climates.I also carry a 1.9oz knife that I custom made for splitting wood into kindling with an improvised baton.... so even in extremely wet conditions I'm covered. I don't consider this a specific addition to my cook kit since it is my primary knife. I also cary a tiny high quality slotted sharpener that fits on my key chain in case I need to abuse my knife, i.e. by digging a sanitary hole.I view fire indeed any cooking stove as non-essential... though i really really love it. I can take it and leave it a night here or there if no fires are allowed.There is always something I can eat cold or hydrate cold for a night or two if fires are not allowed.I also consider that I can can pick up HEET or other alcohol and improvise a top notch alcohol stove at pretty much any gas station or store along the way.As for water purification fire is my primary means, but I also carry iodine tablets in an emergency.. but mostly I use the iodine as a means of sterilizing water bladders if I've had to use them for unpurified water.As goes with firestarting, as goes with cooking, as goes with water purification... I go light, but I focus on multi-use gear and make sure i have several redundant approaches to accomplishing the goal.I love fire because it's fire. I love that fire keeps the bugs at bay... that it throws a little flickering light... as a source of heat, and above all the smells and ambience in the evening.I love setting my coffee back on the edge of the fire to keep it piping hot.What's more the scaleable diameter of my stove, a glorified fire ring of sorts, allows me to dial up or dial down how much fuel it consumes, how long it will burn unattended and the footprint it leaves is easily covered by moving and then moving back ground cover. I can do a quick burn for cooking only... or I can open it up and use it as a heat reflector for a full on camfire... or I can simply use it as a windscreen for an improvised alcohol stove.The key thing is that the footprint is minimal, and all together optional... and in an emergency it's pretty much infallible.

Vargo makes a titanium water bottle, which is way cool, but expensive, and only 750mL.
yeap, was just looking at those:http://www.vargooutdoors.com/Titanium-Water-Bottle4.6oz, holds .65 Liters, costs $70.A bit low on capacity and high on price for my tastes.Especially considering it still weighs 4.6 ounces.I also discovered the following thread:http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/thread_display.html?forum_thread_id=2603#19405I've already tried multiple "keg" style energy drink bottles. The size on them is pretty good, not as large as I'd like, but good. Problem is the aluminum was just to light. Even with water in it I found myself melting right through the side. They're just not tough enough for setting right in the fire.Another direction is to forget about the wide mouth and perhaps look at some aluminum fuel bottles. Still... the Sigg wide mouth looks like the best option thus far. Plus... with a liter or even 1.5L with the sig bottles and a simple twine handle i can hang the bottle over a bigger fire and really do a huge amount of snow melt / water boiling.I think I'd probably fashion a nice cozy for it out of reflectix or the more durable autoshade material that uses a closed cell foam instead of bubble wrap: http://www.bikepacking.net/reviews/sleeping-pads/car-sunshade-sleeping-pad/
These are pretty awesome sweet:http://www.aluminumbottles.com/cgi-bin/webman/scan/se=screwcap/sf=category/se=prod/sf=rtype/ml=1/fi=elemental/sp=elemental::level3andhttp://www.aluminumbottles.com/cgi-bin/webman/scan/se=atk/sf=category/se=prod/sf=rtype/ml=1/fi=elemental/sp=elemental::level3But the largest is only 21.7oz, 3 inch diameter.Not quite big enough for my tastes, but still pretty awesome.Some of their industrial ones are even cooler:http://www.aluminumbottles.com/cgi-bin/webman/scan/se=indu/sf=rtype/ml=20/fi=elemental/sp=elemental::level2I have to believe they probably have the perfect sized container for any pot or water bottle for any hiker. All one need do is cut it down or roll the edge or put on a handle that suits them.If... of course they come in the proper weights and are food and flame safe. Don't see why they wouldn't be though.
An aluminum 16-oz beer bottle takes the prize for low cost and low weight.--B.G.--
Bob,I've still got mine. ;-)I consumed the contents in an all out effort to avoid waste and pursue my MYOG uses for such a worthy piece of "feed stock".By no means am I attempting to qualify as an @$$?o1&. I only had MYOG as my goal, honest! ;-) LOL Party On,Newton
Yeah... this gives me an idea... since used beer cans are ubiquitous why carry a pot at all. /sarcasm
The big advantage of the aluminum beer bottle over the aluminum beer can is that the bottle has a reclosable screw cap.--B.G.--
Sure. I found the H2Go one liter stainless bottle that looks like a Nalgene plastic bottle and has a near identical lid, so you can pop it off for boiling. I have made essentials/survival kits with them, so you have the 10+ essentials, water container and boiler all in one package. They are about the same weight as a Nalgene at 6.7oz. Of course that is heavy in the UL world but there should be some discount for multiple use. I've wondered if a thinner version couldn't be made. I've assumed that the manufacturer wanted something tougher that UL folk would be willing to put up with. It may be because of available metal stock or the forming process would damage lighter gauge metal. Anyway, sure, you can boil with one on a stove or in a campfire. Moving one that is full of hot water and fresh off the fire is the challenge.
Re: h2go SS wide mouth 40oz water bottleGood size for a boiler and water holder, looks a little heavy though:http://www.mylogoimprinted.com/products/6167-h2go-wide-40-oz-stainless-steel-water-bottle-whiteTo bad they don't make it in aluminum
my local grocer is promoting the mug/beer combo pack from Paulaner. the beer can appears to be about a liter, maybe 1/3 larger than the older Heini cans (NO longer made) and I was looking at it for a cookpot.. however, with a $4 mug and a $5 beer at best, the $15 price seems a bit off-centered. Unlike the quality of a Heineken, which will prompt a quick death by sink drain, this Oktoberfest-Martzen is worth drinking. so, win-win? I can imagine how many of these perfectly usable cans are being tossed in the trash as I speak...anyone else seen this? they are likely in nearly every grocer.
Edited by mikeinfhaz on 09/07/2011 14:10:02 MDT.
I am glad to see this thread still alive...If only these were a bit bigger and Ti. Nonetheless, an interesting option:http://www.amazon.com/LunchBots-Stainless-Leak-Proof-Container-16-Ounce/dp/B0044R7VUM%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJPYALGEUAWN2DKSQ%26tag%3Ddesignsweats-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB0044R7VUM
These stainless steel bottles sold by Wiggy's are quite heavy but if you click on "more info" there is an interesting real-life application on why a stainless steel water bottle for boiling water would be great for some survival situations: http://wiggys.com/category.cfm?category=1
@ Jason KlassVargo makes Ti bottles, including their BOT (Bottle Pot):http://www.vargooutdoors.com/Titanium-Water-Bottles
Bob: +1 on the 16 ounce beer bottle.Very light, completely cheap if you dumpster-dive at the recycling station.If you need a liter, bring two. Make an oblong chimney for your canister stove or wood stove set-up. Put two 16-ounce bottles in. They have more surface area and will therefore heat faster than a single 1-liter bottle.
I've been storing/hoarding up 12 oz aluminum screw-top bottles that had protein drink in them...same as the beer bottles but shorter and with a raw finish on the outside (plastic sleeve peeled off), but I am reminded of the thick-walled, cork-stoppered "Swiss Volcano Stove" bottles that are certainly robust enough to put right into a fire. What's one of those weigh?
Erik,Me, too. I set aside a 12-pack (having consumed the contents) of 16-ounce beer aluminum bottles because they seemed very thick and sturdy - much, much more so than a 16- or 24-ounce energy drink aluminum can with a screw top. And I wondered if they'd (1) be discontinued or (2) if it catches on, be optimized with much thinner aluminum as soda cans have been over the years. The large energy drink cans with screw tops (Rockstar, etc) are like overlarge soda cans and very prone to dimpling and crushing. Yeah, I know, we try to be UL and all; but 35-40 grams for water bottle AND cooking pot is okay by me, it doesn't have to 20 grams if 20 grams is so flimsy.
H2Go made some wide mouth stainless bottles that were close to Nalgene weights. The newer Stanley water bottles are a couple ounces less than the Klean Kanteen equivalent. I applaud your effort to simplify and consolidate your kit, but a Platypus or recycled water bottle with a Ti pot are lighter and more versatile than any stainless bottles I have found to date. If you are trying to save space as well as weight, simply store your water container in your pot. I looked at a lot of stainless bottles with the idea of creating one person essentials/survival kits that I could give to a hiking companion who was not suitably equipped. I wanted a wide mouth like a Nalgene so I could store items inside and provide a means of cooking or boiling water for purification. The H2Go bottle was the best I found. Unfortunately, they are hard to find for one- off purchase and are normally sold through promotional supply houses.

Ryan Moves Into Acceptance Stage, Moves Revis to IR
Shortly after Darrelle Revis tore his ACL, Ryan said he'd like to keep Revis active in case he could be ready to go for the Super Bowl. Either Ryan realizes that Revis won't be ready by the Super Bowl, or the Jets aren't going altogether. Citing the need for another roster spot with Eric Smith unable to play this weekend, Ryan told reporters that Revis would be shelved for the remainder of the season according to Jane McManus on ESPN NY.
Ryan held out a slim hope, a hope based on his respect of Revis' immense talent. "When I said it was a 0.002 percent chance? Well, it's not that high," Ryan told reporters Friday. " … I was holding out hope but the more information we got, I realized that wouldn't be good for Darrelle either."
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.comIt's nothing we didn't expect to happen, but it solidifies the reality that Revis won't play again in a game until next September. This is the timetable that will, unfortunately for the Jets, work best for his best chance at a full recovery.

Anyone who view cats as more than just pets, but as members of the family. That love of felines clearly shows in the attention to detail you'll find this tabby cat 6.5 inch wind spinner by Iron Stop®. An engaging grey cat rests in the center of this shimmering work of art and waits to catch a breeze as he surveys his garden home. If you've ever been charmed by a cat, you'll feel an immediate connection with this darling yard decoration. read full product details »
An adorable way to show off your love of animals or a particular pet, the Designer Pet Wind Spinner collection by Iron Stop® features life-like renditions of a variety of four-legged friends. Each ornament presents a head-and-shoulders portrait, intricately detailed and reflecting the endearing love of that companion animal. The collection includes both dogs and cats, everything from a cute little Terrier to a large German Shepherd, a sweet orange Tabby to a pretty Persian.
The Iron Stop® Grey Tabby 6.5 Inch Wind Spinner represents the tabby cat with such great realism, that it's hard not to stare in admiration. This Tabby spinner is depicted with soft, striped grey fur, a white chin and chest, and a bit of a mocha-colored mustache. Pink nose, white whiskers, and perky ears add to the cuteness, but those yellow-green eyes are show stoppers: Naptime is over, it's hunting time.
The wind spinner frames the tabby with a wide, curvy border--complete with symmetrical, autumnal-colored stripes that extend to the edges. Designed to fan open for spinning in a gentle breeze, the wind spinner combines artful ornamentation with precious pet imagery, taking indoor/outdoor decor to a whole new level of darling.
The Designer Pet wind spinner adds an eye-catching addition to flower and vegetable beds, manicured lawns, and wildflower refutes alike. It also offers a delightful way to greet guests on the front porch, to bring extra sparkle near a water feature, or to add a splash of color and character out on th eback patio. The wind spinner works well indoors too, bringing a charming touch to a pet's eating area, a child's bedroom, a reading nook, or an away-from-home office (for that affectionate gaze throughout the day).
Whether you choose to use it indoors or out, you'll want to place your wind spinner someplace that is easily visible--a shepherd's staff in a garden, a hook on a trellis or the eaves of your porch, or near an inside window to best showcase intricate cutouts and a light-refractive finish.
The wind spinner comes ready to hang from the box; simply fan it open and adjust the individual rings as needed for optimal movement. The included swivel hook allows it to twist and twirl in the breeze and ensures easy installation. You can use the swivel hook attachment alone or connected to an extension chain or an Iron Stop® hook accessory to achieve just the right placement (additional accessories sold separately). Opening your wind spinner fully allows it to spin in the wind.
Note: Designer sun wind spinner (model BD315-10) shown above for illustration purposes (not included).
Though delicate in appearance, the wind spinner is made of laser-cut 20-gauge steel for superior durability. It's painted with UV-protected ink and finished with a high-gloss, rust-resistant powder coating to help keep the spinner safe from the elements season after season.
Add to your wind spinner by attaching accessories from Iron Stop®'s handsome indoor/outdoor collections. A spiral tail or wind chime (both sold separately) adds extra flair to your spinner. Iron Stop® also offers battery- and solar-powered motors that create a continuous spinning action--perfect for use indoors or outside on a windless day. Top and bottom hanging holes allow the wind spinner to be hung from additional animated wind spinners to create a customized display. Each animated wind spinner offers a unique animation--from galloping horses, swimming dolphins, soaring eagles, and busy woodpeckers to dragonflies flying over lily pads, cardinals fluttering amongst cherry blossoms, and beautiful butterflies flapping their wings. Show off your love of horseback riding, your patriotic spirit, your love of nature--the collection offers something for everyone.
Proudly made in the USA, the wind spinner measures 10 inches in diameter and makes a thoughtful gift idea for friends and family.

A: All of Iron Stop®'s wind spinners are proudly made in the USA.
A: Iron Stop® spinners utilize state-of-the-art FujiFilm ink that includes UV protection to maintain its brilliance longer.
A: No, this is a one-of-a-kind, exclusive copyrighted design available only from Iron Stop®.
A: You can purchase an Iron Stop® battery- or solar-powered motor that automatically spins your wind spinner for you.
A: The wind spinners are made of heavy, 20 gauge, cold rolled steel.
A: The gloss coating on Iron Stop®'s wind spinners is an enamel powder coat. The powder is sprayed on and then the products are run through an oven that melts the powder into the gloss coat. It effectively seals the steel to make it rust resistant. The powder coat used also contains glitter to make the products sparkle even more in the light.
A: Iron Stop®'s wind spinners are hand-sketched, copyrighted, one-of-a-kind designs. They start the old-fashioned way with a pencil and paper. The design is sketched on paper to get a rough idea of what they want designed and how the piece will look. Once they get the basic shape figured out they scan the sketch and redraw it on the computer using special software. Once it is where they want it they send the file to a laser programmer to have a sample made. After they get the sample back and make any necessary adjustments they then proceed to designing the graphics.

We at puer Mobile couldn't be more excited for the official launch of BB10 or for the two new BlackBerry handsets that'll be the OS' flagship smartphones.
But for many longtime BlackBerry users, change is scary. It isn't that a new device will mean learning a new OS, or even that users will have to get all new BlackBerry accessories (shopping for cool new cases is actually fun.)
It's that, for so many, the draw of BlackBerry is its signature Qwerty keypad, something RIM has done away with in their upcoming all-touch device – or have they?
Actually, judging from a new hands-on video detailing the new BB10 touch keyboard, and according to Gizmodo, the "BlackBerry 10 touch screen keys could rival even its traditional keyboards."
For starters, RIM's made the transition from physical keyboards to all touch keys pretty seamless. As Blackberry's Head of Software Portfolio Vivek Bhardwaj explains in the demo video, the keypad of the new L-Series device has stayed true to the look of traditional BlackBerry keyboards, right down to the signature "frets." So it looks and feels like the blackBerry devices you're used to.
Where it does differ from the original is that the new touch keyboard is more intuitive and intelligent than its predecessor. It automatically separates words when you forget to hit the space bar, it understands context, learns your personal vocabulary, and knows when to switch between languages.
The video below should put your mind at ease about making the upgrade to BlackBerry's first ever all-touch smartphone. So let the accessorizing begin!

Bestselling authors of The Last Week and The First Christmas, Marcus J. Borg and John Dominic Crossan join once again to present a new understanding of early Christianity—this time to reveal a radical Paul who has been suppressed by the church.
Paul is second only to Jesus as the most important person in the birth of Christianity, and yet he continues to be controversial, even among Christians. How could the letters of Paul be used both to inspire radical grace and to endorse systems of oppression—condoning slavery, subordinating women, condemning homosexual behavior? Borg and Crossan use the best of biblical and historical scholarship to explain the reasons for Paul's mixed reputation and reveal to us what scholars have known for decades: that the later letters of Paul were created by the early church to dilute Paul's egalitarian message and transform him into something more "acceptable." They argue there are actually "Three Pauls" in the New Testament: "The Radical Paul" (of the seven genuine letters), "The Conservative Paul" (of the three disputed epistles), and "The Reactionary Paul" (of the three inauthentic letters). By closely examining this progression of Paul's letters—from the authentic to the inauthentic—the authors show how the apostle was slowly but steadily "deradicalized" to fit Roman social norms in regards to slavery, patriarchy, and patronage. In truth, Paul was an appealing apostle of Jesus whose vision of life "in Christ"—one of his favored phrases—is remarkably faithful to the message of Jesus himself.
"A refreshing and heartening exculpation of a still routinely maligned figure of the first importance to culture and civilization."
-Booklist (starred review)
"Paul is one of the most controversial figures in Christian history—and one of the most misunderstood. . . . Many will be thrilled with this fresh, erudite portrait of the man."
-Publishers Weekly
"In this scholarly and engaging account . . . Borg and Crossan successfully argue that we must separate the genuine writings of the apostle from the writings attributed to him . . . This well-researched and highly readable account is recommended for all students of Paul [and] interested lay readers.""

LOS ANGELES -- Chris Nelson won't have to wait long to see his former teammates. The third baseman was traded to the Yankees on Wednesday for a player to be named and cash. Nelson, designated for assignment after last Saturday's game in Arizona, will be added to the Yankees' 25-man roster, and travel to Coors Field next week when New York faces the Rockies.
Nelson laughed when told of the timing.
The former first-round pick in 2004 lost his roster spot to Nolan Arenado, the club's top prospect. Despite a strong second half last season, Nelson struggled to gain traction in April, hitting .242 with no home runs. He was in a difficult spot, hitting eighth and with every at-bat a referendum on his roster spot.
He was among the team's most popular players, and a class act with the media. When he was told of his dismissal, it was as emotional as anyone could recall in recent memory.
"He brought energy, and kept things loose in here. He never had a bad day, it seemed like," said friend Eric Young Jr. "Other guys will have to step up and fill that void."

... thinking it'd be the perfect match for a primary-colored Japanese cotton print in my stash. I'd considered using the fabric for a simple shift, trapeze dress, or tunic, but I'm trying to think like a designer: rather than go for the obvious, I believe a designer would pair a graphic print with a softer shape.
Yesterday morning I sat eating my cereal with a pattern alteration book in front of me, pondering how to alter a pattern to create this dress. Perhaps I could widen the shoulder area and waist of New Look 6912 to add gathering? My research had been unsuccessful in instructing me how to go about doing that, though...
Later in the day, while trolling the Simplicity website, I spotted this:

The forests of eastern Democratic Republic of Congo are one of the most globally important regions for biodiversity. The Jane Goodall Institute (JGI) with support from the Arcus Foundation and The World We Want Foundation is leading a conservation action planning (CAP) process in the region. The CAPenables the Ministry of the Environment, Institut Congolais pour la Conservation de la Nature (ICCN) and other Congolese actors to better coordinate the cooperation of various stakeholders in protecting biodiversity and great apes in this landscape. Under the leadership of Dario Merlo, JGI's project coordinator for the Jane Goodall Institute DRC, the CAP process brought together ministers and representatives of national, regional and local government from four provinces, military and police, international NGOs, local organizations and academia.
Background / Issues:
The CAP process targets more than 66 million acres, the size of the State of Colorado, which contain more than 35,000 chimpanzees and somewhere between 2,500-3,000 gorillas.
During the first CAP workshop in early 2011, it was determined that the situation for gorillas is much worse than originally thought. Grauer's gorillas live only in the landscape covered by the CAP. When the CAP process began, there were believed to be roughly 5,000 Grauer's gorillas left in the wild. However, the latest estimates seem much lower. Mining and poaching for bushmeat are the greatest threats to the gorillas and chimpanzees. Habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation, especially for the gorillas, were seen as other serious threats. A combination of GIS modeling and participatory mapping of expert knowledge has been used to identify, georeference and prioritize the most important threats. DigitalGlobe's QuickBird, WordView 1 and 2 satellites have been used to map illegal settlements and mining sites in key gorilla habitats such as Kahuzi Biega National Park.
Key Project Activities:
Three conservation targets have been identified: chimpanzees, Grauer's gorillas and their habitat. CAP participants have agreed to focus conservation strategies on great ape and habitat distribution, which will be measured by the presence or absence of gorillas and chimpanzees within five-kilometer grids.
Threat abatement strategies for great ape conservation in the landscape were developed. 73 participants identified threat abatement strategies, with no more than three strategies being identified per group. Common themes between the three groups were:
- identifying the priority great ape populations within the landscape;
- education, public awareness and advocacy;
- capacity-building in the protected areas,
- application of wildlife laws within the landscape and
- land use management planning
In early 2011, Dr. Lilian Pintea, JGI's vice president of Conservation Science, traveled to Goma, DRC, where JGI was leading a CAP workshop. The Conservation Action Plan (CAP) workshop was the first in a series of meetings planned to identify strategies and actions to reduce the threats to great apes and their habitat in a critical landscape of the eastern DRC.
Representatives from the DRC NGO community, provincial and national government, police force, mining ministry, and additional key stakeholders were all in attendance.

D-League a possibility for Gallinari, Ewing
Alan Hahn spoke to Mike D'Antoni, who mentioned he's contemplating using the D-League to get Danilo in shape before he makes his NBA debut.
Mike D'Antoni said the D-League was a possible destination for Danilo Gallinari, at the start of the season, if anything to get him extended minutes in game action to help him better prepare for his debut in the NBA lineup. The Knicks' affiliate in Reno is coached by Jay Humphries, who was on D'Antoni's staff in Phoenix and will run the D'Antoni system.
Another potential D-Leaguer could be Patrick Ewing, Jr., though D'Antoni also mentioned the idea of sending Ewing, Jr. to Europe for the year. They would retain his rights until next training camp. Same goes for Dan Grunfeld.
D'Antoni isn't against the idea of using the D-League. In fact, unlike Isiah Thomas, D'Antoni doesn't like the idea of carrying 15 players throughout the season. He prefers to practice and work with smaller numbers. Less people sitting around.
Minor league assignments make sense although I think the competition level is lower than the elite league in Europe. But if they are planning to play Galli heavy minutes, he should get himself in game shape.
As for Ewing, giving him a year to develop is smart, especially work on his jumper. He's a project that needs time to marinate and I feel he'll really help this team after the cluster of 3s, including Quentin Richardson moving on, breaks up a bit.

The occasional sediment and somewhat cloudy appearance are due to the fact that the oil is bottled unfiltered in order to preserve its natural qualities and character.

Watauga County Schools recently began their campaign to find the next Superintendent for Watauga County. The job is currently posted on the school system website, through the N.C. School Boards Association and the N.C. Association of School Administrators as well as in newspapers across the state.
Candidates have until 5 p.m. on Jan. 17 to submit an application for the position. According to the job description, candidates for the position must demonstrate success in 10 categories, visionary education leadership; curriculum and instruction; goal-setting and monitoring achievement; fostering community and/or intergovernmental partnerships; administration and organization of long-term and short-term strategic planning, budgeting, personnel and facility management; strong communication and effective team-building skills; grant-writing and procuring additional funding; visibility and involvement in community activities; leadership in maintaining safe and orderly school environments; and planning and funding of school facilities.
A doctorate degree or progress toward such is preferred, as well as school-level and central office experience. The job is opening after Assistant Superintendent David Fonseca served as interim superintendent following the departure of Superintendent David Kafitz in March 2013. After the application period closes, the Board of Education will select candidates for interviews from applications, then narrow their selection to 2 or 3 candidates for a second interview. Upon being selected, the new Superintendent will begin the job in July of 2014.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A local 10-year-old has decided to give up some of his constitutional rights, if what he wrote in crayon is to be believed.
"According to the children, [the teacher] spoke the sentence and they had to write down what she said," said Aaron Harvey, the fourth grader's concerned father.
Harvey said his son did what he was told during a civics lesson at Cedar Hills Elementary School and wrote, "I am willing to give up some of my constitution rights in order to be safer or more secure."
Aaron Harvey believes this statement reflects the teacher's personal opinion and has no place in his impressionable son's classroom.
"I don't believe that any American or American child should be asked to write this," he said.
Aaron Harvey believes his fourth grade son should be taught the history and importance of First Amendment rights. Amy Harvey, the boy's mother, who was shocked to find the note, agrees.
"If I don't check his backpack I won't find things like this," she said.
The Harveys said they are not sure if the lawyer participating in the lesson assigned the work or the teacher a few days later.
Duval County Public Schools Superintendent Nikolai Vitti in a written statement said, "The Justice Teaching activity on constitutional rights that was conducted at Cedar Hills Elementary School is consistent with our efforts to broaden civics-based education and develop critical thinking skills among our students. The lesson builds awareness of First Amendment rights through a partnership with an association of local attorneys. Our possible concern rests with a follow-up activity that may have been conducted after the lesson."
Aaron Harvey said he had a conference call Friday with the principal of Cedar Hills Elementary, his son's teacher and a counselor. An in-person meeting has been scheduled for Friday, April 19th. Harvey has invited a number of the parents in his son's class to attend.

South American leaders invited to attend a special summit in the Bolivian city of Cochabamba released a joint statement on July 4 demanding an explanation and an apology from the governments of France, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, after the nations closed their airspace to the plane carrying Bolivia's President Evo Morales (shown in front) two days earlier. Officials in the four nations had suspected that NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden was on board Morales' plane.
Following a 14-hour layover in Vienna, Austria, Morales continued on to Bolivia — where he received an enthusiastic welcome at the La Paz airport on Wednesday night.
Morales was returning from a summit in Moscow, where, in an interview with Russia Today, he indicated that he would be willing to consider a request from Snowden for asylum in Bolivia. However, the Bolivian leader said he never saw Snowden in Moscow, and that Bolivia has not received a formal request for asylum for him. Snowden is believed to be waiting in the transit area of Moscow's Sheremetyevo International Airport, pending approval of his asylum request from one of 20 countries he has applied to.
"United we will defeat American imperialism. We met with the leaders of my party and they asked us for several measures and if necessary, we will close the embassy of the United States," USA Today quoted Morales' statement at the summit. "We do not need the embassy of the United States."
The Indian newspaper The Hindu reported that Morales has blamed the U.S. government for pressuring European countries to refuse to allow his plane to fly through their airspace, describing this action as a violation of international law.
The U.K. Guardianand other sources reported that Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Garcia-Margallo said on Spanish National Television that Spain and other European countries were told that Snowden was aboard the Bolivian presidential plane, revealing that "they told us that the information was clear, that he was inside."

We interrupt your regularly scheduled Beauty Board to bring you an important headÂ's up from the fashion world. Today weÂ'd like to alert you all about the latest from one of our favorite design teams: AKA New York. Okay, total disclosure, the designers of AKA New York are former ELLE editors like us, but weÂ're not reporting on their line (now in its third year) for shady nepotism-esque reasons. After all, we buy their piecesÂ--full price, naturallyÂ--in stores because theyÂ're simply irresistible. They have a wide celebrity following as well: Jessica Simpson, Mischa Barton, and Olivia Wilde have all been spotted in AKA New York garb.
One of the lovely things about AKA New York is the brandÂ's sensibility. Created by Abigale Levinson, Karen Reinitz, and Ana Maria Pimentel, the women bring their Â"editor mentalityÂ" to the lineÂ--meaning theyÂ're all about the mix, never wearing one designer from head-to-toe. They donÂ't push one inspiration point exclusively, rather each season they showcase and incorporate multiple visions in a cohesive way. ItÂ's rather like a Â"best ofÂ" collection where every piece is unique, yet a hit.
For their Spring 2007 collection, AKA New York has created a number of exclusive pieces for shopbop.com, like this adorable short sleeved blue Mini Dress
. Shopbop.com also sells the lineÂ's widely available spring looks (try Henri Bendel, Intermix, Milk, Saks, and Neiman Marcus for more pieces). In addition to this, all three designers will be at Henri Bendel in New York this weekend to give personal styling tips to customers. We are seriously sad we're stuck in LA this weekend, but we hope that our NYC readers stop by and chat the girls upÂ--they are so helpful and sweet you'd be a fool not to go! (712 Fifth Avenue, New York, 800-HBENDEL)
WeÂ're personally wild about the brocade pieces that AKA New York is showing for this season. ThereÂ's an empire shift dress ($283, shopbop.com) that we adore and some swell coats too. Also keep your eyes peeled for their polo dress with a dropped waist skirt in navy (shown above, coming soon). As Karen (the K in AKA) said, Â"ItÂ's the easiest dress to just throw on and youÂ're good to go.Â" It also can go from day to night easily (something we always look for), just pair with flats for walking around during the day and then change to wedges and some great necklaces for night. Easy, beautiful, and smartÂ--no wonder that AKA New York is a Line We Love.

Maries County, MO (KSDK) -A Missouri State Highway Patrol trooper is safe after police say her ex-boyfriend held her hostage at gunpoint Wednesday night, then turned his gun on himself.
It happened in mid-Missouri's Maries County. Sheriff Chris Heitman says the off-duty trooper was able to escape her home after deputies from Maries and Phelps counties arrived to defuse the situation.
Police identified the boyfriend who orchestrated the incident as 42 year old Clifford Karst of Warrenton. Authorities say they are not releasing the name of the Missouri Highway Patrol Trooper who was held against her will, prior to Karst taking his own life.
After the trooper was safely removed, a single gunshot was heard. Sheriff Heitman says all evidence indicates the fatal shot was self-inflicted.
An autopsy is scheduled for Thursday.

text: The page took too long to load. The little spinner thing in the middle of the page apparently hyptnotized me though, and I guess I ran out in the street naked and sang jingle bells for 2 hours. At least thats what the police report said, but I always question those reports. Of course I'll plead innocent. Damb this is gonna cost me.
