apparently smoking is allowed. I woke up with a cough and sneezing. Rowdy tenants above us, not exactly the hotels fault. But to be expected with the clientele at these budget hotels - excluding myself, of course. LOL.

The toilet wouldn't flush properly, the shower was dirty, also black mold around tip of shower and under sink area. carpet was dirty, didn't appear to have been vacuumed recently. This was the worst super 8 I have ever been in. I would not stay there again. I'm sorry I chose this hotel, but usually super 8 had nice rooms are clean and a great price. Really disappointed.

Wouldn't ever stay there again. Lobby wasn't clean and too many people hanging out in lobby relatives of desk clerk or friends and desk clerk smoked with the lobby door open and it was cold and smoke smelling. Disgusting for nonsmokers. Worst experience we've ever had at any motel. Need to get someone to clean the hotel better especially the rooms. Disgusting to find a dead bug on the desk in our room. Very disappointed!!!!!! Won't use priceline again if hotel rooms are so disgusting. ...

The staff were very friendly. This is the only positive thing I can honestly say about this place. I had booked through Priceline and asked for two non-smoking rooms. The hotel gave us one smoking and one non-smoking room. The hotel said this had happened earlier in the day with those who had booked online. The rooms were dirty (hairs on our tub and urine on our friend's toilet). Our hairdryer did not work. The hotel as a whole was very dirty looking and not well kept. We were afraid to take advantage of the complimentary breakfast due to all of the above complaints. ...

Both works will play the intimate Roda Theatre at Berkeley Rep in Berkeley, CA.
With Fallaci, planned for March 2013, Pulitzer Prize winner Wright, a contributor to The New Yorker, "turns the spotlight on a fellow reporter and her fascinating contradictions," according to Berkeley Rep. "A young woman interviews the fiery author at the end of her life, when she became a darling of the right. What begins as a discussion of journalism ends with two women exchanging life-changing lessons about destiny and empathy."
Italian journalist Oriana Fallaci's "childhood courage resisting the Nazis fueled her work as a war correspondent with an antiauthoritarian zeal that perfectly matched the '60s and '70s," according to production notes. "She gained fame by grilling Kissinger, Castro, Khomeini, Qadaffi, and other public figures who squirmed under her ferocious questioning."
Wright is a bestselling author, award-winning journalist, screenwriter, and playwright whose previous scripts include The Human Scale and My Trip to al-Qaeda. The latter was also staged by Mosher, former artistic director of the Lincoln Center and Goodman theatres, whose many Broadway credits include Glengarry Glen Ross, Our Town, Speed-the-Plow and A View From the Bridge.
As previously reported, the Rep mainstage season includes the West Coast premiere of Chinglish, directed by Leigh Silverman; Zimmerman's The White Snake; Mark Wing-Davey's production of Shakespeare's Pericles, Prince of Tyre; plus Roda productions of Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare's new one-man An Iliad ; and the world premiere of Dan LeFranc's Troublemaker, or The Freakin Kick-A Adventures of Bradley Boatright, staged by Dexter Bullard.
Berkeley Rep is under the leadership of Tony Taccone. For more information about the Tony Award-winning resident theatre, visit berkeleyrep.org.

The Ultimate Fighter series may come to UK
The Ultimate Fighter series, with British mixed martial artists trying to get a UFC deal, on terrestrial TV? Sounds far-fetched.
It may not be. The Ultimate Fighter series could soon be in the UK, and be shown on terrestrial television, with Michael Bisping as one of the team coaches. Bisping, of course, went from Clitheroe in Lancashire to Las Vegas and won Series 3 of the Ultimate Fighter.
Those are the whispers – not confirmed – that talks are underway to create a first TUF series in the UK, given its success in the US. It follows the success of Forrest Griffin last weekend.
Three years ago, Griffin fought Stephan Bonnar in what has come to be regarded as one of the most significant televised fights in mixed martial arts history. Three days ago, Griffin was part of another significant fight, taking the UFC light heavyweight championship away from Quinton "Rampage" Jackson.
UFC president Dana White believes The Ultimate Fighter series had a major impact on what has become one of the fastest growing sports in the world. "It is one of the biggest things that's ever happened to mixed martial arts," White explained this week to an MMA website.
"The people that are on the inside know. Young, up-and-coming talent can't wait to get on that show. And the talent that's coming out of that show… If you look at half the guys that are on our cards, they're coming from this show. The fact of the matter is, the guys that are on the show are on a certain level, and when they come off they're at a whole other level."
Griffin is testimony to that. White said: "This guy is the American Dream. He was going to quit mixed martial arts. He was going to do the white picket fence, become a cop in Georgia. He didn't fly out like he was supposed to. We had to get on the phone and talk him in. Going into that finale [Griffin v Bonnar] we didn't have a deal. Spike TV was in turmoil.
"The president of the company had just been fired. I was flying back there 50 times a day fighting with these guys and it didn't look like there was going to be a season two of The Ultimate Fighter despite the huge numbers it pulled. When [the Griffin-Bonnar] fight happened that night, the deal was signed in the alley behind the Thomas & Mack. You see us on a network yet?
"We're one of the most powerful sports on earth and we're not on network television. The main reason is we know we have to run a business and you can't make stupid deals. Most of these [other] guys are giving all the rights away.
"Even when we were in a bad situation – we payed $10 million to be on the first season – but we own everything lock, stock and barrel. That's unheard of in the television business, to own the content. We move on from here."

The Business of Agricultural Business Services – Working with smallholders in Africa
This study suggests that the majority of farmers – particularly smallholders – need to expand their understanding of markets and economic opportunities in order to run their farms as sustainable and profitable businesses. To create a viable livelihood from farming, they need to move from a sole focus on production for home consumption to producing also for the market. Even though farmers are innovative and entrepreneurial, they often lack the know-how to do so alone. They need advice from others; they need services.

Building Networks for Market Access: Lessons Learned from The Rural Knowledge Network (RKN) Pilot Project for East Africa (Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania)
The core idea of the Rural Knowledge Network (RKN) was to make more information available, specifically about markets, to smallholder farmers. This was done by building a network of entrepreneurs who collected price information regularly and sent it to a central collecting Internet platform facility. Due to the demonstrated benefits the RKN project has shown, the report concluded that rural market access to business networks should be expanded to reach commercially viable scales through the ongoing IFAD, FAO and other development programmes in the region.

2. Insidious intimidation is a problem
Theresa Zimmerman, past president of the American Society for Healthcare Risk Management, described the emerging recognition of insidious intimidation, a type of intimidation much more subtle, and well, insidious, than the yelling and screaming or overtly threatening kind.
This is when co-workers show "reluctance or refusal to answer questions, return phone calls, or answer pages, [use] condescending language or voice intonation, are impatient with questions and manifest other behaviors that are damaging to team effectiveness and compromise patient safety," she said.
"It's the person who doesn't answer the call light; who disappears when they know a new admission comes into the unit, and doesn't jump in as a team approach, or when they see something is not going a well as possible, [that they] conveniently take their breaks," Zimmerman added.
She went on to explain that this divisive behavior is "eating away at the morale of our teams...and is starting to threaten the actual legitimacy of our quality indicators." Now quality is being linked to payment, she emphasized, and the audience seemed to get her point on how this behavior could impact their quality scores.
3. Surgical standardization is getting serious
Guido Bergomi, director of Project Management of the Quality and Patient Safety Institute of the Cleveland Clinic, had a story he told those gathered at a forum on surgical site infections:
"It used to be surgeons did their own skin prep of patients, and as much as surgeons standardized, they were standardized. But when we looked we found they were really doing different things in very different ways.

Hey Dan welcome to the fold,
Both my mother and brother, have been diagnosed with Celiacs and like you I started having issues around college. I have been a pretty noisy pest at local markets and restaurants, getting them to understand what gluten free means. I have a list of over 20 pizza places in the bay area that now serve gluten free pizza and I working on getting a website up that lists all of this information. My dirty secret is that despite, doing this I indulge occasionally, even though it makes me really sick.
Anyhow, with it getting dark earlier, are any of you riding at night? I have been thinking of getting up an hour earlier each morning and going riding, but I really am not a morning person, however I don't feel all that safe riding at night.
Wife and I started riding last August after a 20 year absence from bicycling. Have 1600 miles on the tandem we bought about 6 months ago including a few centuries and some 100K's. Always looking for rides with other tandems or just (relatively) tandem friendly rides in the 50-75 mile range. We live about 50 miles south of San Jose, but will drive up to 150 miles one way for good rides. Older, but not too slow.

Ya know...I just left my second post on the Commuting forum and, when I saw it, I realized how quietly embarrassed I was of my "newbie" status. I've been on here for over a year and I'll probably never post enough to graduate to junior member or whatever's next, so I thought I might as well embrace my position, embarrass myself loudly and get it over with...I might be here for a while.
Hi - I'm Mel, live in SF. Bought a Fuji hybrid about a year ago, before I found this site. Got it mainly with the intention of riding with my (then) 18-month old son through GG Park and *maybe* commute on it one time, from the Sunset to SOMA. And who knows - maybe biking would be another way I could quit smoking?
Since then:
1) Found bikeforums->cyclocross forum and all the cool gear there and immediately thought "...ooh, should've gotten a double cross instead...or the waited for the sale on the fuji cross...or maybe the Jamis..."
2) Saw SF Bike Coalition's "Gas free Fridays" last year and took that as an invitation to try my first commute. Just to prove I can do it....now I commute 1-2x a week (would do more, if I didn't have to drive to the south bay for work every now and then. Or keep the motorcycle battery charged. Or pick up the kid from preschool. or, really, if I didn't smoke so much)
3) Found touring, rec+family forums, goingslowly.com, pathlesspedaled.com, bought a couple RivReaders and thought "...ooh, maybe a Surly LHT, a Chariot trailer, an s-24-O on Angel island with my kid when he's old enough...then one day..."
4) moved from the Sunset to Bernal Heights, from a relatively flat 6-mile commute to a really flat 4-mile trip with just one big hill at the end (Alabama St. Still haven't ridden the whole way up yet. On a good day, I can make the second stop sign.)
5) Forgot which subforums/websites/magazines I read, but am now convinced I need a Redline 925 single speed with moustache bars like they used to sell (not the bullhorns on the current model. Too cool for this old guy.) Maybe slap some stickers on it, a Brooks saddle, a "yes we did it" spoke card...Then I remember that I still live in Bernal and most days I only make it halfway to that second stop sign, even in my granny gear.
Going forward:
1) I'll make it up Alabama one day. Been thinking about doing some nighttime practice runs, just around the top of the hill...a couple loops just to prove I can do it.
2) I'll take my son for a ride in Bernal one day. Even if it's just around the basketball court behind the library. We even got a balance bike ready for him, waiting til he can flat-foot it.
3) I'll quit smoking. Thursday. T-day is D-day. Got the patch and everything - gonna be holed up in LA for thanksgiving, at my parents' house, with the baby, no bike, no car, nothing good on cable. 3-days, with just a dial-up connection. Yup - gonna do it. (You heard it here first - my girlfriend doesn't even know I'm quitting. Won't she be surprised, on lockdown with me for those three days.)
4) I'll finally join the SF bike coalition. Probably right before I move to Berkeley.
5) Also on the list: clipless pedals, a bike fitting, subscriptions to Momentum and Bicycle Times, a folder for my future BART commute, maybe a welding class at the Crucible, or a bike frame class at UBI, neoprene booties for the winter commute (cause I'm serious about it this time)
and - I'll post again. Just not this wordy. I'm really kinda quiet and boring.
Thanks, btw, to everyone who posts ride reports or what they bought. Keeps me inspired.
Great post Mel, you should do that more often
Good luck with kicking the smoking habit - there's no time like the present.
Hi, Mel. That was funny. Yeah, quit smoking. Now. Do it.
I know that hill feeling well. Two years ago, I didn't think I could do what is now routine. Just gotta stick with it. Nice of you to post.

So how is the quitting smoking going? You can do it!

Greetings One and All,
Dane here. I live at the foot of Mt. Diablo. I Ride with the Valley Spokesman. I have been biking forever but only really "hardcore" since April 2009. Have done 8 Metrics and did 82 of 100 on my last two rides where I went for the full. I joined a club so I could enjoy a group ride of over 60 miles w/o all the fees. I am 48. My main ride is a Felt z70; the rest of the fleet is a Novara Pondarosa for hill and dales, a 1988 Fisher Hybrid, 1988 Specialized Allez, and a Echelon and Motobecane in various stages of "completion." Bummer for me as I am 99% sure I fractured a rib MTB last weekend, so maybe my bike projects will get worked on now.
On long rides I plan stops there for water refills and "nature breaks." The county cutbacks haven't affected the cleanliness of the restrooms, thank goodness.
When my feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders and says, "Oh, *****, she's awake!"

Hi everyone, or "neighbors."
I'm Dom or Dominic and i'm from Daly City California which is 15 Minutes away from San Francisco. I'm 16 Years old and i share my cycling life with 11th grade High School. I'm a road biker, but for 2010 i will be known as a "competitive cyclist" I can't stress enough how much i love climbing and hills. I also love sprinting, fast cornering descents, and long flat stretches. I can be most commonly be seen in the San Bruno Mountains, in South San Francisco (El Camino Real). When the weather is nice or i'm not training for a race my default ride would most likely be Skyline BLVD-->San Andreas Trail--> Sawyer Camp Trail-->Canada Road-->Woodside-->King's Mountain. I ride with a cycling partner who has a red Fuji.
Sometimes i am stopped by random people, and they ask me if i'm a member of BF, so let me know if you're one of the people who has stopped me, or let me know if you have seen me!
I have a Trek 2.1 and my main Outfit is an Astana replica jersey or a Philippines Design Jersey.

Yo. I am Colin. I graduated from UC Santa Cruz in June and now I'm living in Sunnyvale. I am a scrawny vegan Cat 3 road racer, specializing mostly in climbing-intensive courses, although I will probably not race very much next year due to lack of training time and motivation. I still enjoy riding and I race CX and XC, but with less competitive edge than road. I also bike-commute to my job in San Jose 2 or 3 times a week. I have posted on NorCal before, but don't think I have ever formally introduced myself. Sup?

Howdy all - I'm trying to get back into the habit of checking in here. Name is Joel and I'm back in CA after a three-year stint in Baltimore for grad school and work (I don't recommend it). Live in San Leandro and work in Oakland. Clyde for life, and I keep making attempts to train more seriously so I can move from sprint tris to at least one olympic dist.
On a related note - I'm looking to do the b-fit-day challenge this year and I'm looking for advice on a goo ~ 34 mile ride within an hour or so of the bay. Suggestions are welcomed, either here or by PM. Thanks in advance.

Almost 40 years after Foucault's comparison of society to the panopticon, "a terrifying, circular prison pierced in the centre by a single watchtower," Shannon Gormley writes for the Ottawa Citizen that we now live in the age of "the cyber panopticon...in which our every move--our every test score, growth spurt and parking ticket--is documented, analyzed and, sometimes, used against us by educational, medical and police bureaucracies." Gormley suggests that in this time of social networking and online sharing, "now we face a prisoner's dilemma...do we give up our information freely, or keep it private and hope that our friends and enemies will do the same?"

FOXBORO -- It was less than three weeks ago that the Patriots were bitten by a pass interference call that never was. On Sunday, they benefited from a pass interference call that many believe never should have been.
Two plays after the Patriots recovered an onside kick in the fourth quarter against the Browns, Tom Brady lofted a pass deep down the right sideline to rookie receiver Josh Boyce. With a step on Cleveland corner Leon McFadden, Boyce stretched out in the end zone for a potential go-ahead touchdown reception.
Immediately after the ball bounced away incomplete, a flag was thrown for pass interference. McFadden and Boyce did some hand fighting as they ran toward the goal line, and McFadden put his right hand on Boyce's back as the ball approached. McFadden did not appear to extend his arm and push Boyce, but it was deemed enough contact for a penalty.
After a timeout by Cleveland, the Patriots completed a one-yard touchdown pass to Danny Amendola with 35 seconds left to take the lead, 27-26. New England later won by the same score.
On Monday night football in Week 11, the Patriots had a chance to win the game late in the fourth quarter, but Brady was intercepted in the Panthers end zone on the final play of the game while it appeared as though Brady's target, Rob Gronkowski, was interfered with.
McFadden admitted there was some contact on the play that was ruled pass interference and resulted in a 29-yard gain for the Patriots. He did not, however, believe the right call was made.
"I feel like it wasn't pass interference," McFadden said. "But all I can do is go back and look at the film and make my corrections."
His coach felt the same way.
"I did not," Browns coach Rob Chudzinski said when asked if he believed pass interference should have been called on the play. "I felt like those two were both jostling for the ball and obviously, the penalty was called. So at the end of the day it doesn't really matter what I think."
Browns cornerback Joe Haden was running alongside Boyce and McFadden as he covered Patriots receiver Julian Edelman. When he saw a flag thrown, he threw his hands in the air, quickly and vehemently disputing the call.
"I dunno know what happened," Haden said. "I saw Leon running with [Boyce]. I saw Leon running with him because I was next to him. I didn't really see . . . I saw a good play."
"Leon," Browns defensive back TJ Ward said with a laugh. "I have no comment about that call."
At Gillette Stadium, against one of the best teams in the league, the Browns weren't necessarily expecting to have any calls go their way.
"We're on the road," said Cleveland corner Jordan Poyer. "You can't expect no calls to go your way. Especially when you're playing the New England Patriots. You just have to keep playing and keep fighting."
Even after the Patriots recovered the Stephen Gostkowski onside kick, Haden admitted he felt safe with a 26-21 lead and one minute remaining in the game. The Patriots had to go 40 yards with no timeouts.
"I still knew that we just had to go out and stop them," Haden said. "They didn't have any timeouts left so we go out there and just play top down. [McFadden] did a really good job running with him.
"It just doesn't fall our way. It just doesn't."

RBI showcases rare currency notes

Taking the residents of Chandigarh in the pre-Independence era, the Reserve Bank of India is showcasing old currency at a four-day exhibition which is on in the city till April 30. The event also showcases Rs 5,000 and Rs 10,000 notes and tells why and when were they withdrawn.
Currency notes of Rs 5,000 and Rs 10,000 were introduced in 1938 but were withdrawn in 1946 to check flow of black money. They were reintroduced in 1954 but finally withdrawn in 1978. The exhibitors have also put on sale the specimen of Rs 5,000 as well as Rs 10,000 notes in the form of a postcard priced at Rs 10.
The specimens of the notes from all years have been displayed along with footnotes listing changes brought about at different stages. Taking visitors through the times of Kings to Ashoka Chakra, Mahatma Gandhi, introduction of security thread etc, the exhibition displays the changing faces of individuals on these currency notes.
After the establishment of RBI, the first ever currency note that was printed was that of Rs 5 and carried the side profile of King George V Emperor of India from May 6, 1910, through World War-I until his death in 1936. However, the then and the first Governor of Reserve Bank Sir Osborne Smith refused to sign the note and it was the second governor in 1938 who signed the notes.
The Rs 100 note then carried a picture of a roaring lion. Later it was during World War-II that lot of fake currency through Japan got into the market and the side profile of King George V had to be altered for security reasons and it was changed to the facade of the king.
Informing about the exhibition, Jasbir Singh, Regional Director RBI Chandigarh said, "The exhibition has been organised to let know the common man the facts about currency notes and their journey from years before Independence to the today's time. It would educate people on the history of currency notes and how and when the shapes and sizes of different currency notes were made."

Piet Hein Donner
Jan Pieter Hendrik "Piet Hein" Donner (born 20 October 1948) is a Dutch politician of the Christian Democratic Appeal (CDA). He is the Vice President of the Council of State since February 1, 2012.
Donner previously served as the Director of the Scientific Council for Government Policy from 1 January 1993 until 22 December 1997 when he became a Member of the Council of State serving from 22 December 1997 until 22 July 2002. He became Minister of Justice serving from 22 July 2002 until 21 September 2006 in the Cabinets Balkenende I, II and III. He and Minister of Housing, Spatial Planning and the Environment Sybilla Dekker resigned in the wake of a Dutch Safety Board enquiry into a fire at a cell block near Schiphol Airport. He then became a Member of the House of Representatives, serving from 30 November 2006 until 22 February 2007 when he became Minister of Social Affairs and Employment in the Cabinet Balkenende IV, serving until 14 October 2010 when he became Minister of the Interior and Kingdom Relations in the Cabinet Rutte I. He resigned on 16 December 2011 after he was elected the new Vice President of the Council of State succeeding Herman Tjeenk Willink, he was replaced as Minister of the Interior and Kingdom Relations by fellow Christian Democratic Appeal party member Liesbeth Spies.[1][2][3][4]
Early life[edit]
The Donner family has produced a number of Calvinist judges. Piet Hein Donner's father, André Donner, was a judge at the European Court of Justice in 1958-1979 and was part of the government commission that looked into Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands's dealing with the Lockheed Corporation. His grandfather was Jan Donner, who served as Minister of Justice for the Anti Revolutionary Party in the first cabinet of Dirk Jan de Geer and was later president of the Dutch Supreme Court. His uncle Jan Hein Donner, however, was a chess grandmaster and author. Piet Hein Donner studied Law at the Free University of Amsterdam, obtaining a degree in 1974. During his study, he joined the student society L.A.N.X. in 1968.
In 2006, Piet Hein Donner recorded a rap song together with Meester G to explain his point of view on the Dutch soft-drug policy. It was a reply to a song by Gerd Leers, Mayor of Maastricht, (with punk band Heideroosjes), which called for a more progressive policy which would not only regulate the selling of soft drugs, but also legalise their production.[5]
On 13 September 2006, Donner was the subject of controversy when he suggested Islamic law could be established in the Netherlands by democratic means. He responded by a clarification that he was not advocating such a scenario but warning against it.[6] That same month, a report of the investigative commission into a fire at Schiphol Airport jail was released, condemning Dutch government officials.[7] Donner, as responsible justice minister, resigned in aftermath of the report's conclusions. His successor was Ernst Hirsch Ballin, who had been justice minister in the third Lubbers cabinet.[8] Four months later, Donner was appointed Minister of Social Affairs and Employment in the new Cabinet, Balkenende IV.

On Tuesday I took my last final of the year. I still can't believe it has been a year since I started college though. Seems only yesterday that I finally figured out where I wanted to go. I'm ecstatic to write that I do not regret my decision, at all.
Figuring out where I wanted to go for college was draining to say the least. I loved my IB experience. Knowing my teachers so well and having them there for support really left an impression on me. As for my classmates, staying up together till the early hours of dawn frantically finishing essays, annotations, and projects provided a lot of bonding time. I did not want to let that go, but I knew I had to. My teacher mentioned the term "liberal arts" but I still had no idea what he was talking about. I looked at the typical schools in Georgia but none of them fit. Finally, I grudgingly went in to talk to him about his obsession, no not Nietzsche, Oglethorpe University.
He always spoke about this great liberal arts university that provided so much for its students. The faculty to student ratio was small and teacher's assistants were unheard of. I figured I had nothing to lose so I applied. A few months later, I found myself visiting for the first time for scholarship weekend. The minute I stepped onto Oglethorpe's grounds, I knew I was in love with the place. A few more months later, I messaged my teacher letting him know I finally committed to Oglethorpe University.
So my journey began that summer, yes before I even started classes. I received an email from one of the petrels asking me if I was interested in starting an initiative that would meet the President's Interfaith and Community Service Campus Challenge. I could not believe my eyes. I had not even registered for classes yet. Someone already knew me and my interests and reached out to me to start something on campus!
That summer I along with some students, faculty, and staff started COEXIST Oglethorpe to meet President Obama's challenge. A few months later, on September 11 we had our inaugural event. It would be the first of four events that we would hold that year which I wrote about here.
As service project days came and went, finals and midterms took away sleep and passed, and my first semester ended I could not help but marvel at how much had happened in such a short time. At the end of the semester I received an email from admissions asking students if they would be interested in volunteering for this year's scholarship weekend. Without hesitation I replied yes.
As we welcomed prospective students I began to feel nostalgic for my own experience during scholarship weekend. My seminar had been fascinating and the events of the day thrilling. Who would not be excited about spending a few days in college while still in high school? As I looked around at the students I realized that it had been a year since I first learned of this place and fell in love with it. It seemed so long ago and yet so recent.
- It poured that day!! You have got to admit, Oglethorpe is beautiful even when it is raining.
- After more service days, more COEXIST Oglethorpe events, and more midterms the year came to a close. I could not have asked for a better end to my year than last Friday's event. Check out the pictures here. I am still smiling from ear to ear from that experience. When I turned in my last paper on Thursday it really hit me that my year ended and I would now be a sophomore. I made great friends, began my journey towards becoming who I want to be, and learned more about myself than I ever thought was possible in such a short time. I wish I could write about every experience I had in this post, but it will be pages long. I honestly could not have asked for a better year or expected such a great one.
- I cannot wait to start working over the summer at Oglethorpe and for next year to begin. I can only imagine what it will be like and how many emails I'll be sending to my teacher about some event or thought I had that day. Oglethorpe gave me a place to spread my wings and fly. Now, I'm soaring like a petrel and on my journey to make a life, to make a living, and to make a difference.

A new Multimedia Package, available on all models, enhances the XC90 with the Dynaudio premium sound system with Dolby Pro-Logic II® Surround Sound, 650-watt amplifier and 12 Dynaudio speakers, Sirius satellite radio and the Volvo Navigation System with remote control and Real Time Traffic.
The XC90 V8 receives an even more impressive roster of luxury features with the addition of standard Sapeli wood inlays, gearshift knob and steering wheel. Also standard are heated front seats, headlamp washers, rainsensor windshield wipers and Interior Air Quality System (IAQS).
Those seeking the ultimate in comfort and luxury can select the XC90 V8's Executive Package. Among the generous list of amenities is Executive soft leather seating surfaces, door panels and center console cover, Executive Classic wood inlays and steering wheel, Executive floor and cargo mats, heated front and rear seats plus ventilated/massage functions for the front seats.
The advanced 3.2-liter in-line six-cylinder engine for the XC90 3.2 and R-Design is a naturally aspirated powerplant that utilizes the latest technology to maintain the same exterior dimension and fuel consumption as a five-cylinder engine. This engine delivers 235 horsepower and 236 lb.-ft. of torque. It achieves performance and economy thanks to Variable Cam Timing (VCT) and Cam Profile Switching (CPS). With CPS, the intake valves can be lifted to different heights depending on engine revs and load - a lower lift for economical driving and a higher one for more power.
The XC90 V8's 4.4-liter 32-valve engine is also naturally aspirated. Fitted with continuously variable intake and exhaust valve timing (CVVT), it develops 311 horsepower and 325 lb.-ft. of torque. All-wheel drive with Instant TractionTM is standard. This traction enhancing system employs computer-controlled Haldex AWD that instantaneously delivers up to 50 percent more torque to the rear axle only when needed, such as during takeoff. A six-speed "Geartronic" automatic transmission is standard on all XC90s.
Adhering to Volvo's core value of safety, all XC90 models are equipped with Roll Stability Control (RSC), Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC), Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) with side airbags and Inflatable Curtains for all three rows.

Nice to meet you by PanzerTheTankWatch
©2012-2016 PanzerTheTank
Oh my god, I'm so happy I'm not the only one who ships Miraak with OCs x'DD It's just ... so ... awesome.
Well miraak was a badass. If you look up any of the lore it says that he was in a fight with another dragon preist that seperated solstheim from skyrim.(or something like that) there's also alot of dragon skeleton from him as well.
Well, who doesn't enjoy shipping their characters with NPCs in Skyrim! I know I do!
That's the best part, cause being judged doesn't matter! It's an RPing game and we can do whatever crack pairing we want!
I'll let my giggly fan-girl side take over when it comes to that. Teehee!
I do enjoying shipping my DB assassin with Miraak, they seem like a fitting pair. She has a nice side, she just didn't think helping little Aventus Aretino would lead to such a well paying but grim job. Hehe, she also sufferes a bit of pride and jealously issues. So super weird things happened between the two.
Hehehe I just started shipping Tanwen with Miraak and a friend of mine gave me alot of nice screens of those two together XD
It's an alternate universo though
It makes me feel bad that you can't just befriend him and get him to stop. But, Nooo, Bethesda's got do things their way. Which is make every character you want a friendly or married relationship with, impossible. Besides AU's can be pretty fun or cute.
"Oh, you wanted to Marry Brynjolf(or insert other non-marriable NPC you want to marry here)? Too bad. PC peeps can work around it, but sorry Xbox, PS3 users. We just don't work that way."~Bethesda. I truly believe thats what goes on as a conversation between Bethesda workers. It has to be.
But if I could marry any NPC, i'd be marrying weird NPCs. Probably Sheogorath or Uncle Sanguine, or one of their little Dremoras. Maybe Alduin too. Definitely Miraak though.
I can't choose to marry anyone, mostly I have a crush on Thrynn, Rune and alduin....well almost every guy in skyrim XD
Lolz, I do this to my poor characters as well. XD
If i was better at drawing, i'd help with your shipping. But unfortunately, i suck at the moment. Pretty funny though.
I ship my dragonborn and Miraak together.
-emo corner-
-emo corner-
Who doesn't? He's awesome, well, next Alduin, but still!
Huh, never thought of Cthulu until you just mentioned it.
What do you mean by "ship" o.0
Its got a catchy ring to it!
Its got a catchy ring to it!
Man, Miraak needs more art.
There is never any Miraak/Dragonborn! I've looked!
like this though, made me laugh.
like this though, made me laugh.
second comment FTW:
Tamriel will have a new threat... Something the Elder Scrolls never foreseen, the shipping of two Dragonborns, you can almost feel the earth trembling from the force behind it... the force of Miraak running for his life XD
Tamriel will have a new threat... Something the Elder Scrolls never foreseen, the shipping of two Dragonborns, you can almost feel the earth trembling from the force behind it... the force of Miraak running for his life XD
"and a dark shadow chackling and laughing at him as it follows like a black dog. While the last dragonborn smokes some weed and watches the freakshow unfold" XD hahaha
Shipping powers activate!
I will go down with that ship xD
I like how in the 2nd panel he's dead scared
I like how in the 2nd panel he's dead scared
What I really want is someone on the PC to open up the console, click on Miraak, type in unequipall, and show us what he looks like.
That. Would be awesome I imagine him looking like the dragonborn on the poster, maybe a little older, but you know what I mean XD
I really love the Cthulhu and other Lovecraft inspired works about the DLC. I think the Lurkers are actually based off of the Deep Ones! ^^
Poor Miraak! xD I wish we could have him as a follower though... That would be bad ass! >:3
Yeah, I thought he would end up as your ally and take on Mora together with you....but no. He had to be another soon-to-be-killed
Only good part about this dlc was getting his outfit Bethesda better give a patch witch makes dragons steerable

When we think of reality show, we think trashy housewives and serial dating, but this is not your typical reality show. Instead, Sarah Palin's Alaska is a unique look into faith, family, love, strong American values and the natural beauty Alaska has to offer.
During the course of the series, viewers will get to know Todd Palin's grandmother Lena, an Alaska Eskimo who has passed on native traditions, such as harvesting salmon, to her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren. Quite an impressive family history.
In the premiere episode, members of the Palin family are seen fishing in bear country and scaling a snowy mountain pass in Alaska's famous Denali National Park.
Overall, this is an opportunity for viewers to see Sarah Palin for who she really is personally, as a wife, mother and career woman, without the media spin machine distorting her image or the distraction of being surrounded by political hoopla.
You can check out an exclusive preview in the clips below.
Sarah Palin's Alaska premiers Sunday November 14 on TLC at 9/8 central.

EDIT - Due to unexpected circumstances, I'm extending the contest. It will not end until January 20th, 2013. I will also not be accepting any more contestants. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Omg... This is gonna be a nightmare for my messages, but....
I'll be hosting a contest. I've been in a real giving mood, so the winner gets a free 1-month premium membership from me! Consider it sort of a Christmas raffle thing...
Okay, here's the rules.
Fave this journal, send me a llama, make a journal about this contest with a link to it, and then leave a comment saying, "Elf".
I'll give you a randomly generated 3 digit number. Your job is to remember that number. The person who's number I pull is the winner of the premium! Simple enough! :3
The contest ends on the 26th of this month!
This is my first real big contest, so bear with me. If you have any questions or concerns, just note me. :3
Okay... GO!!!
just wondering who won?
I had issues with the credit card hooked up with my account. Sadly, I could not afford to give a premium as a prize... But :devibeafluffehkitty:'s number got pulled and she received a cake badge as a consolation prize. I'm very sorry.
This, sadly, has expired since the credit card I was using went into over-ride. I ment to apologize to everyone who entered and return llamas. I'm so sorry about this. ;-;
actualy, when you give a llama you can't give it back. That's why there are llama trades, when you give a llama you don't lose any, neither does the other person. So there's no problem.
Dang it!
Uhm, sorry. At the top of the journal, I said I wasn't accepting any more contestants. :c
I'll give you a llama in return, but... Yeah, sorry.
I'll give you a llama in return, but... Yeah, sorry.
Elf! (I can't link it right now im on My phone and it wont let mehh D: )
993 is your number.
um... i had already given you a llama so I can't again DX can I still enter?
Elf Baby!
Elf (I can't link it right now but can I enter?..)
550 is your number.

Blackout Shades & Blackout Blinds
- Best choice for complete darkness
- Blocks 99% of incoming light
- Great for bedrooms and home theaters
- Tight-fitting inside mounts block the most light
- Many styles to darken your space
Blackout shades and blinds block nearly all incoming light with cellular shade, roman shade, roller shade, woven wood, pleated shade, panel track and skylight choices. Although sometimes called Blackout Blinds, a light blocking blackout effect is best achieved with shades, as they block the most light with a tight-fitting inside-mounted opaque shade. Blackout Shades eliminate maximum light seepage with specially woven material or with the addition of a liner to create a darker space than the subtler Room Darkening Shades. Custom blackout blinds provide the darkest blackout experience available.

customer reviews for blackout
"Great value for money!"
By amberdana from Becker MN
I spent a lot of time shopping for custom drapes for my two big picture windows; it was impossible to find off the rack drapes wide enough, and custom drapes through Costco's partner company were insanely expensive. I am so happy I found Blindsgalore--the employees I telephoned and emailed were so professional, and I am so happy with how great my drapes look!View this product
"Great Shades!!!"
By Lin Loves Levelor from Lancaster
Ordered these because I already love Levolor....we have them in several windows in the house. We tried the room darkening this time and they are amazing--really darken!!! The color is just as shown on the sample and matches the room perfectly. I will order Levelor again.View this product

Okay, first off, Delsen is a guy. It says in the fucking description. Second, doubleleaf is a woman (that's the artist), third, you can take your "ooh yaoi's gross" bullshit elsewhere. There was no need for that comment. It was unnecessary. If you were just curious about the gender of the character, all you needed to do was look in the f-ing artist comments. If you couldn't find it there, then you could've asked. The yaoi bash was NOT needed.
can you calm down i never but i never know that artist is a woman sooo man calm down please ¬¬
Are you asking if doubleleaf is male or female or are you asking if Delsin is a male or female?
doubleleaf, according to the dA profile page, is a female. Delsin is a male.
I don't see why what someone like to draw defines whether you are a male or female, though. @_@
not, im a only askin is the artist is a male or female not the character
and yeah i didnt was a woman cause her profile got yaoi and i was confuse .-.

Curse you Infamous SS for making me want to buy a PS4 even though I have no moneeeey! Awesome artwork of the character too of course.
1 of the best arts of him, yet! I'mm looking forward to this character making his way through it all!
inFamous: Second Son is my Number 1 reason for getting this game.
Wahhh can't wait for this game! <3
I like The look of Infamous SS alot. Though I have to be honest and say the nature of Infamous and the ending too Infamous 2 I think there could be a small possibility Cole could return as some mysterious Wise man or something. Not saying that should happen but kinda conflicted with my own idea of what is possible one side I think Cool they are sticking with Cole's Death but the other Cole could return still. Also Alden was never confirmed dead maybe he could return. Though a copletely new set of Characters wouldn't disappoint Deslin looks cool. I would like some Customisation in an Infamous game where you can change clothes in a shop or something or maybe even drive a car. sure super powers why bother but could be a nice touch....... sorry I'll shut up now *awkward*
