Anencephaly is a condition that prevents the normal development of the brain and the bones of the skull. This condition results when a structure called the neural tube fails to close during the first few weeks of embryonic development. The neural tube is a layer of cells that ultimately develops into the brain and spinal cord. Because anencephaly is caused by abnormalities of the neural tube, it is classified as a neural tube defect.
Because the neural tube fails to close properly, the developing brain and spinal cord are exposed to the amniotic fluid that surrounds the fetus in the womb. This exposure causes the nervous system tissue to break down (degenerate). As a result, people with anencephaly are missing large parts of the brain called the cerebrum and cerebellum. These brain regions are necessary for thinking, hearing, vision, emotion, and coordinating movement. The bones of the skull are also missing or incompletely formed.
Because these nervous system abnormalities are so severe, almost all babies with anencephaly die before birth or within a few hours or days after birth.
Anencephaly is one of the most common types of neural tube defect, affecting about 1 in 1,000 pregnancies. However, most of these pregnancies end in miscarriage, so the prevalence of this condition in newborns is much lower. An estimated 1 in 10,000 infants in the United States is born with anencephaly.
Anencephaly is a complex condition that is likely caused by the interaction of multiple genetic and environmental factors. Some of these factors have been identified, but many remain unknown.
Changes in dozens of genes in individuals with anencephaly and in their mothers may influence the risk of developing this type of neural tube defect. The best-studied of these genes is MTHFR, which provides instructions for making a protein that is involved in processing the vitamin folate (also called vitamin B9). A shortage (deficiency) of this vitamin is an established risk factor for neural tube defects. Changes in other genes related to folate processing and genes involved in the development of the neural tube have also been studied as potential risk factors for anencephaly. However, none of these genes appears to play a major role in causing the condition.
Researchers have also examined environmental factors that could contribute to the risk of anencephaly. As mentioned above, folate deficiency appears to play a significant role. Studies have shown that women who take supplements containing folic acid (the synthetic form of folate) before they get pregnant and very early in their pregnancy are significantly less likely to have a baby with a neural tube defect, including anencephaly. Other possible maternal risk factors for anencephaly include diabetes mellitus, obesity, exposure to high heat (such as a fever or use of a hot tub or sauna) in early pregnancy, and the use of certain anti-seizure medications during pregnancy. However, it is unclear how these factors may influence the risk of anencephaly.
Changes in this gene are associated with anencephaly.
Most cases of anencephaly are sporadic, which means they occur in people with no history of the disorder in their family. A small percentage of cases have been reported to run in families; however, the condition does not have a clear pattern of inheritance. For parents who have had a child with anencephaly, the risk of having another affected child is increased compared with the risk in the general population.

Sports: Maspalomas
In Maspalomas, sports can be an exciting experience. Here you can do a wide array of water sports like windsurfing, sailing or scuba diving, as you might expect from any of the best beaches in Gran Canaria. But you have the chance to do something different too, such as skydiving over the sand dunes in Maspalomas, going horse riding across El Inglés beach, playing golf, etc.
Sports in Maspalomas
- Scuba diving in Maspalomas: In Maspalomas, its long beaches and its environs are three of the best scuba diving spots in Gran Canaria: Baja del Pasito Blanco, offering rich underwater biodiversity, the man-made riff of Arguineguín and the wrecked Russian ship, the Meteor II.
- Fishing in Punta de Maspalomas: The coast from Punta de Maspalomas to Punta del Descojonado, in the municipality of San Nicolás, is great for fishing. You can go fishing all the year round, but the best months to catch tuna are May through December.
- Skydiving over Maspalomas dunes: Maspalomas is the perfect place to fly like a bird doing paragliding, hang-gliding or skydiving. Among the many authorised spots is the impressive Caldera de Tirajana.
- Climbing and MTB in El Nublo: The area of El Nublo Rural Park that is closest to Maspalomas offers a chance to do thrilling mountain sports like climbing or mountain biking. On El Inglés beach there are many companies planning a nice day out in the mountains for visitors.
- Sailing in Pasito Blanco: Pasito Blanco is a marina next to Maspalomas. It offers more sailing lessons and boat rentals than any other coastal resort across Gran Canaria. Here you can go surfing or water skiing as well.
- Horse rides from El Tablero: In Maspalomas, in the area of El Tablero, there are some of the biggest equestrian clubs in the south of Gran Canaria. They organise horseback rides for small groups of eight to tour the area for 2 or 3 hours.

I have a fair few but I will just tell you the scariest one. This has a bit of a pre-story to it.
Pre-story - One night some how the fence broke and my horse Banjo got out and we didnt know till the next morning. He went walking down the road and he ended up getting hit by a car. He was EXTREMELY lucky to have survived. The vet was even shocked he could stand up. He had massive chunks out of his hip and his back leg and a few deep cuts around his body. He ended up being ok and he is still ridable, after he recovered of course, but he had a massive fobia of cars for a while.
The story - I was out on a trail with my friend and we had stopped to eat our packed lunch. We tied the horses to trees while we were eating. Chucky my horse some how managed to get his leg over his rein. This completely freaked him out and he went mental. He ended up pulling out the tree ( it was only a few metre high one and half dead). He jumped around and went bolting down the road with the tree underneath him! A few things about this freaked me out. Firstly, there are heaps of big logging trucks around where we were riding and I was sooooooo scared he was going to get hit cause im extra parinoid cause of what happened to banjo. Secondly I was scared for him cause he could have got really hurt with the tree under him. And thirdly, we were surrounded by bush so if he went in the bush and kept running not concentrating on where he was going he could have gotten lost and we would have never have found him! I jumped on the horse my friend was riding (Banjo, who I was so proud of for staying so clam during all this) and went running after him. Thankfully he stopped about 300m away. He got away with only a few cuts and bruises. I was still able to ride him home. Although he was really shaken up about it all. Poor chucky.

"Enemy Mine" is "Robinson Crusoe" set under the two suns and six moons of the volcanic planet Fyrine IV, a grim red landscape lashed by meteors and savage cold. One day, a century in the future, the spaceships of two warring pilots crash-land not far from each other. One of the pilots is a gee-whiz earthling, and the other one is a reptilian humanoid from the planet Dracon. Although they are natural enemies, they learn to live together, to help each other and eventually even to love each other. The look of the planet in "Enemy Mine" is so convincing, the special effects are so elaborate and the performances are so good that I only gradually became aware of what a clinker the story is. The movie has the potential to be a truly great story about communication between alien species; it could have been a space thriller with a mind and a heart. Instead, it gives us an alien that is too human, too familiar. It takes that amazing planet and gives it food, water, gravity and atmosphere that are suitable for both humans and Dracs. It depends on plot gimmicks like the convenient arrival of enemies and the equally convenient arrival of friends to the rescue. It doesn't dare enough.
How should it dare? The world of science fiction is filled with fascinating aliens - intelligent creatures who are infinitely more than lovable characters in reptile skins. Why couldn't the Drac be truly alien in this film? There are occasional moments of inspiration, such as the fact that Dracs are male and female rolled into one, but "Enemy Mine" simply uses that as an excuse for a couple of weepy scenes and the creation of a Drac child that seems destined for the Little League. The idea of aliens with combined sexes has been handled much more interestingly in books like Isaac Asimov's "The Gods Themselves," in which there were three sexes, not two. And even the most rudimentary science fiction aliens usually manage to seem truly different than humans; once the Drac in "Enemy Mine" learns English, he seems scarcely less human than the human.
The Earthman in the movie is played by Dennis Quaid, and the Drac by Louis Gossett Jr. They are both very good, but saddled with a predictable and sentimental script. If they had been left all alone on their barren planet, they might just possibly have arrived at some interesting story possibilities. Instead, "Enemy Mine" descends to the level of 1930's space opera with the arrival of evil human slave-traders who kidnap Dracs and force them to work in mines.
As the slavers stood over their captives with whips, I found myself wondering how cost-effective it would be to transport manual laborers millions of light years. Surely a technology capable of arriving at the planet Fyrine IV would have figured out a better way to mine its ores? Then there are the truly unbelievable moments, as when Quaid's apparently lifeless body is found by a human spaceship that is never seen; the cornball moment when he comes back to life; the human spaceships returning to Fyrine like the cavalry to the rescue, and the final idiotic shootout. Were they so bankrupt of ideas, in a movie rich with them, that they had to resolve the plot with yet another fistfight and gunfight? By the time the noble, uplifting ending arrived, I'd given up. Here is a movie that made no compromises in its art direction, its special effects and its performances - and then compromised everything else in sight.

Lady GaGa says it's always been her ambition to make performance art mainstream because she believes it's important for the music industry.
Lady GaGa says it's always been her ambition to make performance art mainstream.
The 'Edge of Glory' hitmaker is known just as much for her on-stage performances and eccentric outfits as she is for her singing voice, which is something she's proud of because it's always been important to her.
She told The Guardian newspaper: "When I was really young, I was fascinated with performance artists - Leigh Bowery, Klaus Nomi. And when I got older I became fascinated with Yoko Ono and Marina Abramovic. I grew up with them, and sort of naturally became the artist I am today. It wasn't until I started to play out in New York and my friends said, 'Look how much that has influenced you', that I realised it.
"The one thing there wasn't on the Lower East Side was pop music. So as a pop songwriter, I thought that would be an interesting way to make a name for myself in this neighbourhood. I figured I could play the grocery store around the corner as if it was Madison Square Gardens, maybe some day I can assimilate pop music into performance art in a more mainstream way."
Gaga is so keen to put on a good performance for her fans, she recently claimed she "went bankrupt" during her 'Monster Ball' world tour.
She said: "I put everything in the show, and I actually went bankrupt after the first extension of the 'Monster Ball'. And it was funny because I didn't know! And I remember I called everybody and said, 'Why is everyone saying I have no money? This is ridiculous, I have five number one singles' - and they said, 'Well, you're $3 million in debt.' "

Without a doubt, the Chevrolet Impala is easily one of the most iconic vehicles in not only American history, but motor vehicle history in general. Having stepped onto the seen in 1958, we've seen this household name transform multiple times over the years, having made a great impact on car history with its distinct styling and iconic characteristics. It would be a bit challenging for the younger generation to appreciate such history, but car lovers alike will certainly appreciate this fascinating piece put together by the good folks over at Complex Magazine, as they compiled a feature starting with the first model produced in 1958, to what we see today.

Evans,Benjamin, Wadkins-- whoever-- just get us a legit #1 WR
<<I don't think that's as much a matter of "teaching size" at it is Boldin winning with experience and aggression - neither of which Quick has.>>
Boldin did it as a rookie, and I have to see more of Quick, because the passes i see them throwing that are jump balls are mostly O.B. overthrown, especially by Clemens, who can't throw the fade at all, to ANYONE.
Mostly, a QB throwing contested jump balls is gonna see a LOT of them picked off, like Kaepernick did last Sunday, and not many caught, and the Rams don't really do that much, Bradford preferring to find someone more OPEN.
Those kind of plays usually only happen in desperatuion time, and the Rams hope they will have few games in that 4th quarter mode, where you are behind .
Again, I do like Evans, from what I see with my own eyes, especially against Alabama and Auburn, but I do want to know what happened the last six games he played.
How he works out determines hom much I like him, and how high I would go to draft him.
As far as his 'attitude' on the field. I see that as a plus for this division.
<<Evans,Benjamin, Wadkins-- whoever-- just get us a legit #1 WR>>
First of all what IS a #1, your definition. Is it just a guy who can catch 100 balls?
Bailey AND Austin could do that, and HAVE done that in college.
Is it ability to make the big play? Givens, Bailey and Austin can do that.
Is it all around play, that you can block, go deep, or also catch a tough slant?
Pettis and Quick can do that.
You cannot look at ANY college WR and see for sure that he will be a superstar, not even Jerry Rice out of college, it took FOUR YEARS for Michael Irvin, Vincent Jackson or Tim Brown to do ANYTHING.
Would you have given up on them? I suspect so based on what I see here. Their first three years make Givens and Quick look like Jerry Rice.
The Rams can go to the playiffs, even a Super Bowl, by getting better protecting Bradford and running the ball, and by defending the pass better on third down, and by stuffing the run of SF and Seattle.
Adding another rookie WR might be nice, especially if you hit on the guy, but in 2014, it wouldn't win a game for you, because the rookie would not play over Austin, Bailey, and Givens for quite awhile. He'd be a situational guy perhaps, but would not have the impact some better O-linemen and D-backs would have on winning.

A lot of time was spent on discussing Digital, as you might expect, but early on on the first day, DC co-Publisher Jim Lee made a visual analogy that sort of guided my thinking for the rest of the weekend.
Jim held up two hands. In one hand he had a regular 8 1/2 x 11 piece of paper, and in the other, he had a piece of dental floss. The former, he said, represented the revenues from print comics. The latter? Revenue from digital.
Now, clearly, digital will continue to grow — heck, maybe with a lot of effort and brain cycles, it might even grow to be the size, say, of an index card, but the actual real on-the-ground reality of digital comics sales are that they are a virtually (heh) insignificant way of making money for the publishers.

Fantastic. BMW's bikes just keep getting better. I'm always amazed at how many ride underpowered and poorly engineered Harleys when they could be riding a BMW. There is no comparison. Sort of like trying to compare Porsche and Chevrolet.
One of the choices you will face when deciding on new windows for your home is the type of window you should select. These are likely to be either sash or casement. Sash windows are the windows that slide up and down and may have a locking mechanism at the top of the sash. Some sash windows are single, sliding one way only, while others are double, with both top and bottom panes able to move.Casement windows are popular when it comes to UPVC windows. These are the windows that are hinged on the side and open inwards or outwards. Sometimes these windows can swing in several directions, to allow a fire exit or to increase the flow of air. Many companies that specialise in windows offer casement windows.UPVC windows are a great way to save energy in the home, but let's not forget about decoration. There are additions to your windows that will enhance their attractiveness and the attractiveness of your home as well. Consider having leaded casement windows for timeless elegance, or enhancing your windows with stained glass panels. Let more light into a room by putting clear or frosted glass on the sides of your casement windows. There are several options which will make your home more beautiful. office 2010 download
If I have to explain why I ride a Harley and a /5 airhead too, you would not understand, dummy
"Sort of like trying to compare Porsche and Chevrolet"
Didn't a Chevrolet Corvette just beat a Porsche in yesterday's American Le Mans?
...Just sayin'
@Kingkinko -
I'm sure there are lots of reasons to ride a Harley instead of a BMW, but none of them have anything to do with the superiority of the Harley as a motorcycle, because it's an inferior ride. The Harley is fun, a spectacle and gets you membership in an exclusive crowd of Harley enthusiasts. But it's unquestionably a dated and overweight design.

Re: Why are some fields showing up in the attribute window as light-green in 10?rglennon-esristaff Apr 11, 2012 1:14 PM (in response to jread)The green shading indicates that the field is being used to symbolize the layer. (There is currently no option to change the shading colors.) See the diagram in this help topic for more about the components of the Attributes window:
Symbology and other layer properties are utilized more in editing in ArcGIS 10 than in ArcGIS 9--for example, feature templates are based on the layer symbols. So, you see a window with the list of unique values symbols in it when you edit the contents of a field used to symbolize the layer. Fields with domains or subtypes that are not used for symbology show the regular drop-down.
Make sure you have installed ArcGIS 10 service pack 4. This is the newest and includes all the previous service pack fixes, too. Your crash is a bug that was fixed in one of the service packs.

As our regular readers are already aware, the new RoboPhilo humanoid robot will be unveiled at iHobby Expo 2007 this week in Chicago. It will be definitely be interesting to see how the crowds react to this innovative new product and it's very attractive price/performance.
Unfortunately, we're hard at work here in Chiba, Japan this week, and won't be able to make it to the show in person. Still, if any of you are able to attend the show, please send us some photos and a brief write-up. We'd be happy to post them on Robots Dreams with full credit to you and a link back to your website.
And, just to provide a little extra encouragement, we put together a short video of RoboPhilo in action (see below).
In September, we were lucky enough to have access to one of the final pre-production RoboPhilo robots, and definitely put it through its paces. The results of our extensive testing will appear in a multiple page review in the Winter 2007 issue of Robot Magazine. Still, without spoiling the 'story', we can tell you that we were very impressed and already have several projects underway to do things like adding gyros for improved stability, expanding the motion editor functionality, etc.
Our evaluation unit didn't have the sexy markings shown in the product catalog, but otherwise it was identical to the robots that will make their first US appearance at iHobby Expo on Thursday.

Under threat of legal action, point of gun, or whatever authority the executive branch cites, a state-run university must force the visible discomfort of the female students on campus, so that a 38-year-old male, with his male parts intact, can feel "ok" about himself, while putting on women's clothing? (Or in the case of the female locker rooms on campus--taking it off?)
Please also note the undercurrent of this action taken by the Department of Justice. The implication is that if the university doesn't comply the action they take will be based on the withholding of "civil" rights.
Practical question here: what's to keep any number of other men from donning female duds, claiming they feel feminine that day, and hang in locker rooms for say non-"identity"-related rationale?
Understand that this case doesn't involve any claim to sex change. Which from a medical standpoint shouldn't matter either. The human genome and DNA footprint of someone who undergoes a sex change operation still registers as their original gender for the rest of history regardless of what parts they had taken off or put on.
But Braly prefers to live--pretending to be female--while keeping his male parts.
Is it honestly the responsibility of the University of Arkansas to look into whatever dysfunction is being played out in Braly's mind, emotions, and heart and to attempt to re-order their universe to pander to it?
Does the Department of Justice--by turning this into a question of civil rights--and bullying the university into conformity--have any concern in their hearts for the women on campus who are already expressing their discomfort at the idea of a 38 year old member suddenly appearing before them in the locker rooms or bathrooms across campus?
Or would the Department of Justice label those women "unreasonable, hateful, or transgenderphobic?" Worse yet would DOJ seek to punish the women on campus for the natural shock and displeasure that the majority of them will feel at such a revelation?
Certainly the university could dare the DOJ to take them to the judicial branch to attempt objective voices to be heard in the matter. But depending on which circuit, and how long it takes, the university might have to pour millions of dollars to marshal a defense of something that only a generation ago was commonly understood to be ludicrous.
People like Braly are deeply injured and need a vast amount of empathy and compassion. But neither the university campus, nor the public dime should be used as resources to put innocent people at risk at best, or at worst further the dysfunction by allowing the behavior to be encouraged and duplicated.
And people… if they can force the University of Arkansas Fort Smith into conformity, what's to stop them from trying it on Ohio State, the University of Texas, or say you're local parochial private school?
At the end of the day, some of the best people to end bullying were parents who said "Stop… Because I said so!"
In this case, since "We The People" sit in authority over the DOJ, Eric Holder and even President Obama, perhaps it's time we serve as their parent and put an end to the true foolishness of such folly.
Especially since most bullies will only respond to an even stronger authority, an articulate instruction, and a firmer will.

Airlines are set for price war over city flights to Tunisia
Gordon Thomson, News Reporter / / News
SCOTS could be offered cut price holiday deals to North Africa.
A tour operator plans to take on holiday giants Thomson and Thomas Cook by offering sunshine breaks to Tunisia, if trial flights from Glasgow prove a success.
Speculation of a summer price war has been triggered by the revelation that Just Sunshine wants to tempt more tourists to the African country, which boasts the Sahara desert and 810 miles of coastline.
The tour operator is in prime position to challenge the dominance of Thomas Cook and Thomson which already offer regular summer flights out of Glasgow. Thomas Cook has a twice weekly service while Thom-son offers a weekly flight.
Just Sunshine is part of the El Mouradi Group, one of Tunisia's biggest companies and includes the country's largest hotel chain.
Just Sunshine currently offers British tourists a choice of more than 120 El Mouradi hotels in seven resorts and has teamed up with Tunisia-based Syphax Airlines which plans to test the market by launching three flights in the summer.
The first takes off on June 29, with the others on July 6 and 13.
If the three flights are money makers then regular flights out of Glasgow are planned for next year's summer holiday season which runs from April to October.

Bosses at Just Sunshine are quietly confident.
They have been planning their Glasgow trial for almost two years with regular talks with trade organisations.
National sales manager Tony Blakey said: "We have been working closely with the local travel trade over the course of the past 18 months and it is clear there is demand for charter services to Tunisia from Glasgow.
"We are looking forward to arriving at Glasgow Airport in June and it is our intention to expand our service in 2014.
"We have been operating holidays to Tunisia for more than seven years and have a strong track record in providing tailored packages so we're confident the service will prove successful."
Francois Bourienne, commercial director at Glasgow Airport, said: "Just Sunshine is a welcome addition to our busy summer schedule.
"Tunisia has grown in popularity with holiday-makers and the tour operator's arrival is great news for Glasgow Airport as it will provide our customers with even greater choice."
Once known as the "bread basket" of ancient Rome, the African country has a population of more than seven million and is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north and east, with beaches and water sports, while Algeria lies to the west and Libya to the south.

NCAA Wants Players To Be Emotionless Zombies
It's almost 24 hours later, and it's still hard to believe how badly Washington got screwed at the end of their game against BYU. I know I shouldn't be shocked by a blown call by a Pac-10 officiating crew (the Tweedledums of the college football world) in the Pacific Northwest (there is precedent after all), but I still am. Even more shocking: the blown call went against the Pac-10 team.
Here's what happened - Washington's Jake Locker scored on an amazing scramble with two seconds left to bring the Huskies to within one point of the Cougars. As Ty Willingham appeared to be signaling an all-or-nothing two-point conversion attempt, the officials threw am extremely dubious flag on Locker for excessive celebratio. Which led to a blocked 35-yard PAT attempt and a heartbreaking 28-27 loss for Washington.
Video after the jump.

The original and excellent Fidelio L1 headphones propelled Philips to the forefront of the high-fidelity audio scene. The updated L2 cans have now landed, promising audio quality that's just as impressive but with a few minor changes here and there. The design has also been slightly reworked. Has the best just got better?
Redesigned Headband
The Fidelio L1 headphones rocked a discreetly retro yet still contemporary feeling design, blending dark brown leather with visible top-stitching and dark anodised aluminium. The L2 share plenty of design features with the second-generation M1, giving them a fresher, more modern feel, with a sleek new look built around quality materials like aluminium and leather. We've got no complaints there!
The flat headband used in the L1 has been replaced with a tube-like structure that's lighter and sturdier. The headband therefore has an oval shape that's similar to that of the M1, although it's obviously bigger. The upper part of the headband is foam-padded and finished in black leather with orange top-stitching. The padding makes the headband thicker but trims down its width, making the L2 headphones more discreet to wear.
The earphones themselves haven't changed much, using the same memory foam padding and comfortable leather finish. And that's no bad thing—there's no point fixing something that's clearly not broken. The grilles on the back of the earphones have been made larger—which in turn modifies the audio output—and the swivel joints that attach them to the headband have been replaced with new, more robust swivel systems.
The Fidelio L2 are comfortable headphones to wear. They're a bit on the large side for portable circum-aural headphones, so they should definitely be comfy for users with larger heads. They keep excellent contact with the ears while also remaining discreet. The only slight bugbear is that you definitely start to feel the headband's presence when you've been wearing the L2 for a few hours. Then again, that's a problem that only a handful of massive, non-portable models manage to avoid.
The Fidelio L2 headphones are supplied with a soft pouch (a hard case would have been nicer), a jack adapter, and two cables—one standard cable and one with a built-in remote for use with a smartphone. The new remote is simpler than the previous model and no longer features volume controls. The cable-to-headphones connection has been simplified too, as the small length of cable previously attached to one earphone has been replaced with a more classic connector placed directly on the earphone's casing (see above).
More Accessible Output
Frequency response for the Fidelio L2 (left to right = low to high frequencies)
The audio output was already excellent and particularly neutral with the L1. The L2 headphones take quality forward with a more expressive output. And there's no doubt that they are—like their predecessor—some of the best affordable portable headphones out there. Bass frequencies have been ever so slightly reinforced in the L2 for a more vibrant overall sound.
Middle frequencies are neutral, precise and very well balanced, with no excessive strength or weakness. In fact, the frequency response level remains more or less consistent over the spectrum, with slight peaks at the bass end and in higher frequencies. The L2 therefore give a very slightly V-shaped frequency response, making the output a little less neutral than the L1, but giving a livelier, more playful and more immediately attractive sound. The sound still feels a little sombre, but there's an impressive level of depth that's almost on par with huge non-portable hi-fi headphones made by AKG, Sennheiser or Hifiman. Impressive stuff!
Left: % THD+N / Right: harmonic distortion only
Spatialisation is excellent. Individual instruments are very easy to locate and the stereo image is very wide. The partially open-backed build can really be felt here compared with regular portable headphones. Plus, distortion is very low, as you'd expect from headphones of this calibre.
One thing that has noticeably improved in the L2 is square wave rendition, which keeps the sound cleaner and clearer. This is no doubt an effect of the reduced impedance, now at 16 Ohms compared with 26 Ohms for the L1.

Team IHG® Rewards Club has announced the signing of talented young driver Jack Goff for this season's Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship.
The proven race-winner has enjoyed a strong start to his relatively short BTCC career so far, with a number of podiums and a maiden victory at Snetterton last season being the outstanding highlights.

Best Cure for Cabin Fever (2008)
The Island
There comes a time every winter when you reach the brink of madness. You've had enough of snow sports and snow in general, and you just want to put on shorts and play in the sand. A trip to The Island is what you need. With year-round indoor sand volleyball, it's as close to summer as anything you're going to find in Colorado during the winter months. The food is good, and cheap. The drink specials are plentiful, the people are friendly, and there's lots of action to take in. While Denver does have a cult-like group of serious players who eat, sleep and breathe volleyball — playing every night in clothing straight outta Margaritaville — casual players are welcome, too. They can opt to play backyard-style 6 on 6 instead of the ultra-competitive and exhausting 2 on 2. A lot of the action is league play, but drop-ins happen most days. The Island serves up summer all year round.
