This is a great hat! It is lightweight, soft and warm. I used it to run a 5k in 40 degree temps and it was perfect. I purchased the graphite color but couldn't find any info on what it reverses to, just so you know it "reverses" to a bright lime green.

Bought a second one because I like them so much, I want a back up in case they ever discontinue the product. Light weight but warm. Fits snug (not bulky) on head. Looks great, goes with everything. Can wear with casual or dress attire. Best winter hat I've ever owned.

This beanie is so cool! I just shaved me head and I needed something I could run in. It's super soft, stays put, and it doesn't leave my head feeling way too hot. My only issue is that the red side of the beanie has a giant tag, which makes it look less reversible and more like inside-out. I'll be removing it though, and other than that, I have no complaints.

Felt very comfortable - was warm for the beginning of my run; then after warming up it's compact enough to comfortably be pocketed. Of course I had hat-head, but I didn't feel any chafing, and it seemed to be good at pulling sweat from my skin.

Gave this to my husband for Christmas. He likes the fit and material. Since it's the coldest part of the year, he's been wearing it under his other microfiber beanie for his longest, coldest runs. I'm not sure he will ever use the reversible side but it's a fine option. Good value and warmth, he says.

Threat of closure seems to have been averted and the management of Doubletree by Hilton Hotel in Dar es Salaam can breathe a little easier as business resumed following their agreement to 'total compliance' of all environmental protection measures.
Deputy Minister, Vice President's Office, Mr Charles Kitwanga confirmed that the hotel has complied with given regulations and has got the go ahead to resume business.
"The aim is not to obstruct hotel operations of the hotel but rather to ensure observance of the environmental protection standards…" Kitwanga explained.
Speaking on behalf of the management, the Hotel's Director of Sales, Florenso Kirambata reported that business resumed as of Saturday December 22, 2012 and he also asserted that requirements specified by the National Environment Management Council, (NEMC) will be adhered to the letter.
In fact, he reported that inspection by officials from the National Environment Management Council, (NEMC) has been conducted and the officials are satisfied with the degree of compliance and even advised the Minister of State, Vice President's Office, (Environment) Dr Terezya Huvisa to lift the authority to shut the hotel down.
On behalf of the hotel management Kirambata said "…the entire team wishes to express appreciation and gratitude to the ministry and officials from NEMC who assisted and guided us in the process…to have the hotel back to a fully operational state…"
He further aplogised for all inconvenience caused in this period of inspection and they welcome back all regular clientele assuring them that they can expect that the hotel will live up to the Doubletree Brand Promise to provide the special comforts and acts of kindness that make the traveler feel human again.
Early last week, Dr Hiviza ordered the management to close down pending full adherence to environmental management standards. That order by the minister followed reports that the hotel dumping sewage into the ocean.
The hotel administration expressed regret for the anomaly and pledged immediate repair of the apparently ruptured sewage pipe. Inquiry by this paper revealed that reservations were going on as usual and guests had high remarks about the hotel and services provided.

Seen & Heard – Libraries Obsolete? Hardly!
A few talking points for non-library users who assume our place in communities is on the wane:
– In February alone, KDL added 1,362 new cardholders, bringing the system close to 230,000 overall patrons. In addition, 4,026 people attended 69 events system-wide.
– In 2011, KDL's ebook and eAudiobook circulation rose an astounding 192%. Also last year, total circulation of materials for loan spiked by 7%, to 6.8 million items.
– An employee at Steelcase Inc., a regular user of the Grandville branch, recently told staff that many of his co-workers were using KDL's online Mango language-learning database to improve their language skills as jobs begin to move to Malaysia.
– In response to patron requests, a laptop lounge at the Krause Memorial branch is set to open this month. The lounge will provide additional space to laptop or mobile device users who need access to electrical outlets and a quiet place to work.

A Year with Frog & Toad runs through Nov. 24 at the Chicago
Children's Theatre. Weekend shows are $28 for children and $38 and
adults. Tickets are $25 for children and adults on Friday nights.
For an additional $5, families can upgrade for the on-stage seats.
To buy tickets, visit www.ChicagoChildrensTheatre.org
or call (872) 222-9555.
If you're going to pick just one children's production this
season to attend, it should be "A Year with Frog & Toad" at the
Chicago Children's Theatre.
It's not just the live band, the delightful characters or the
fun, shabby chic set and costumes that make the timeless Arnold
Lobel books jump to life. It's every little detail that was
thoughtfully directed by Henry Godinez to make this production into
a fairytale for children and into delightfully funny and eccentric
show for adults.
The story, which starts in the spring and takes us through the
winter, reminds us of what a true friendship between two besties
(or in this case, between a frog and a toad) should be. The
live band keeps the energy going through this 70-minute,
no-intermission show.
It really shows the ups and downs of a friendship, while
explaining the migration of birds, the speed of snails and other
basic ways of life. It's a true classic.
The toad, played by Mark David Kaplan, stole the show with his
Woody Allen characteristics, and he gelled perfectly with his frog
counterpart, played by Karl Hamilton.
Also, surprisingly hysterical was the snail/ mailman, played by
Shawn Pfautsch. We could keep singing the praises of each
individual person who contributed to the show, but the real judges
are the tiniest audience members - who loved it.
We took our 4-year-old and 2-year-old, and they didn't budge
until the very end. In fact, though the show is recommended for
4-year-olds and up, many of the theatergoers were children who
appeared to be younger - and they all did fine (though the band may
have masked some squirmier kids).
There was an option for some children to sit on the side of the
stage, but I don't recommend doing that. Though sitting on the
stage seems exciting, those seats are more on the side than on the
center of the stage - and the kids would actually have a better
view of the show from the regular seats than the stage seats.

Consular Information Program
The State Department's Office of American Citizens Services and Crisis Management administers the Consular Information Program, which informs the public of conditions abroad that may affect their safety and security. Country Specific Information, Travel Alerts, and Travel Warnings are vital parts of this program:
- Country Specific Information is available online for the Republic of the Congo and for every country in the world. These reports are also available upon request in the Consular Section. Country Specific Information includes the location of the U.S. embassy or consulate in the country, unusual immigration practices, health conditions, crime and security information, road safety, unusual currency and entry regulations, and drug penalties.
- Travel Alerts are issued to disseminate information about short-term conditions, generally within a particular country, that pose imminent risks to the security of U.S. citizens. Natural disasters, terrorist attacks, coups, anniversaries of terrorist events, election-related demonstrations or violence, and high-profile events such as international conferences or regional sports events are examples of conditions that might generate a Travel Alert. Current Travel Alerts are available online or upon request in the consular section.
- Travel Warnings are issued to describe long-term, protracted conditions that make a country dangerous or unstable. A Travel Warning is also issued when the U.S. Government's ability to assist American citizens is constrained due to the closure of an embassy or consulate or because of a drawdown of its staff. Current Travel Warnings are available online or upon request in the consular section.

Trekking in Ischia trough vineyards and panoramic paths
Ischia has another face to show you, its interior is made up of vineyards, chestnut woods, pine forests and Mediterranean maquis.Our island may not be very large in area but it has many unforgettable sights to beguile you.
The Bay of Naples with Vesuvius and Capri can surprise when seen from the Ischian hills; the Port of Ischia may arouse a particular emotion when glimpsed through the pine trees of the Maddalena woods.
The beauty of a cultivated vineyard in an improbable location that defies all good sense and is only there because of local pride and tradition, all these may help explain what it is that links the islanders to their rock.
These are beautiful images which will surely say to anyone who has seen them... I have really been to Ischia.

|Cross-reactive influenza virus-specific CD8+ T cells contribute to lymphoproliferation in Epstein-Barr virus-associated infectious mononucleosis.
|Reference Detail
|Reference ID:
|The marked proliferation of activated CD8+ T cells is pathognomonic of EBV-associated infectious mononucleosis (IM), common in young adults. Since the diversity and size of the memory CD8+ T cell population increase with age, we questioned whether IM was mediated by the reactivation of memory CD8+ T cells specific to previously encountered pathogens but cross-reactive with EBV. Of 8 HLA-A2+ IM patients, 5 had activated T cells specific to another common virus, as evidenced by a significantly higher number of peripheral blood influenza A virus M1(58-66)-specific T cells compared with healthy immune donors. Two patients with an augmented M1 response had tetramer-defined cross-reactive cells recognizing influenza M1 and EBV-BMLF1(280-288), which accounted for up to one-third of their BMLF1-specific population and likely contributed to a skewed M1-specific T cell receptor repertoire. These epitopes, with only 33% sequence similarity, mediated differential effects on the function of the cross-reactive T cells, which may contribute to alterations in disease outcome. EBV could potentially encode an extensive pool of T cell epitopes that activate other cross-reactive memory T cells. Our results support the concept that cross-reactive memory CD8+ T cells activated by EBV contribute to the characteristic lymphoproliferation of IM.

Society for Novel Studies / "Novel Worlds" / April 27-28, 2012
full name / name of organization:
Society for Novel Studies
contact email:
In April 27-28, 2012, the Society for Novel Studies will hold its first biennial conference at Duke University, sponsored by the journal NOVEL: A FORUM ON FICTION.
This conference is modeled on the conference titled "Theories of the Novel Now" sponsored by the journal NOVEL and held at Brown in November 2007. We are happy to say that the 2012 conference, "Novel Worlds," has the additional purpose of inaugurating a new learned society. Last April a dozen scholars known for their work in various areas of Novel Studies met at Duke to draw up the by-laws for the Society for Novel Studies (SNS) to reach out to scholars in diverse areas of novel studies and bring them into conversation otherwise unavailable at conferences organized by historical periods or national languages and literatures. NOVEL is the official journal of the SNS.
The conference planning committee, composed of the journal's editorial board and elected SNS officers, Kate Flint and Jonathan Arac, is in the process of arranging a series of panels to run no more than 5 concurrently over two days, punctuated by plenary talks, luncheons, and receptions. Registration fees will include lunch on both days, an opening cash bar and closing party: $100 (before January 1) and $115 (after January 1) for faculty, and $50 for graduate students.
We are interested in papers that bring scholars who work in various subareas of Novel Studies together around one of the following problems (papers will be selected according to their willingness to focus rather precisely on one of these topics, as well as to accomplish the society's goal of crossing cultural, historical and geographic boundaries).
Panel topics and organizers:
Global novels: Writing the Now (R. Barnard)
We intend to limit the number of participants and the length of the papers to under 20 minutes in the interest of discussion. If you are interested in presenting a paper on any one of these topics, please submit your name, position, and address together with a title and brief (250-word) paragraph proposing a paper to email@example.com no later than November 15. You should also feel free to propose a panel if you feel we have overlooked a hot topic and can convince us we've done so.
For more information, visit the conference website: http://novelsociety2012.trinity.duke.edu/
We hope to see you in Durham next year!

Why John Mearsheimer Is Right
Robert Kaplan, The Atlantic
AP Photo
Mearsheimer writes ANARCHY on the board, explaining that the word does not refer to chaos or disorder. "It simply means that there is no centralized authority, no night watchman or ultimate arbiter, that stands above states and protects them." (The opposite of anarchy, he notes, borrowing from Columbia University's Kenneth Waltz, is hierarchy, which is the ordering principle of domestic politics.) Then he writes THE UNCERTAINTY OF INTENTIONS and explains: the leaders of one great power in this anarchic jungle of a world can never know what the leaders of a rival great power are thinking. Fear is dominant. "This is the tragic essence of international politics," he thunders. "It provides the basis for realism, and people hate people like me, who point this out!" Not...

By Amy Chorew
Using the internet to capture real estate leads can be an exciting way to earn new business. It can also be a major undertaking for those without the training, understanding or systems to manage online lead generation.
According to NAR, 90% of consumers are researching homes online. This is before they ever pick up a phone or reach out to a real estate agent. The rapidly evolving online world makes it imperative that you create a system to grab and retain the attention of today's home buyer.
If you have hired a lead coordinator, bought smart phones for your sales associates and created back office systems to distribute leads, you may believe that your job is done. You would be wrong. Building a successful online lead generation system takes time, skill and management.
Shift your focus from lead generating for a moment to lead management. How are you handling these leads and what could you do better? Let's begin by overcoming a few myths or beliefs you might have and find solutions that allow for better lead management and performance.
Leads Management Myths
Myth 1 - It is about lead generation, not lead management
Wrong. How you manage your incoming leads is far more critical to the success of your overall lead system. Stop worrying about bringing more leads in if you are not focusing on the cultivation of the leads you have.
Many real estate professionals make the mistake of taking the lead, making a phone call and then tossing it aside. Cultivating a lead requires time and effort. Whether the consumer is interested in purchasing one week or one year from now still necessitates a system where you remain top of mind. Use touch point emails and phone calls to build a relationship with your potential client. Offer valuable information that positions you as the local real estate expert.
Myth 2 - Electronic automated response is a substitute for picking up the phone
As marketers, we are always looking for that silver bullet; the one system or tool that will solve all of our communication problems. While automation is beneficial, it is only a complementary solution to human interaction. As our world continues to move at a faster pace than ever before, we have the tendency as marketers to automate everything we possibly can. This is a huge strategic error in converting leads.
Automatic responses and drip systems will assist in keeping you in front of your prospect, but will never build relationships the way simply picking up the phone can.
As you build your follow-up system, make sure weekly calls are part of your strategy. Intersperse calls with emails, direct mail and any social media campaigns.
Myth 3 - The vast majority of leads are junk
The truth is; online leads can be misunderstood because many real estate professionals are ill prepared to handle them. They dive into online lead generation with no concept of what it takes to incubate and covert this challenging lead.
For example, if a lead says they do not want to buy for four months, the typical salesperson will give up after only a few weeks. If a lead says they want to have information on financing, instead of sending articles and tips, agents set up a search and send a list of properties. In order to convert a lead, you must understand the needs of the consumer.
• Purchase the NAR Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, and absorb the statistics to better understand the consumer market segment.
• Interview buyers and sellers in your market to find out their buying and selling habits.
50% of online leads will not convert into clients for at least 12 to 24 months. Create a procedure that offers insight into the buying/selling process for a full two years.
Myth 4 - Sales people automatically know how to convert an online lead
The average real estate professional does not step into the business with a background in converting online leads. Sales managers must take a proactive stance in training sales people how to converse and build relationships over the phone.
A training solution includes:
• How to immediately qualify or disqualify a lead
• How to nurture and convert a lead
• Understanding what a call to action is and how to position them properly
• Creating a solid campaign that includes drip marketing, phone calls and direct mail
• Setting expectations on conversion rates and the time it will take from start to finish
Now is a good time to clean up leads that have been sitting in a contact management system. Organize, purge and get permission to email those leads. Build your system and create consistency in your communication. The online lead is counting on you.

Strange Worlds - Paths and Spaces of the Fantastic in the 21st Century (Sep 2010, Hamburg, Germany) Deadline: April 1st 2010
full name / name of organization:
Lars Schmeink, University of Hamburg, Germany
contact email:
1st annual and founding conference of the
Fremde Welten
University of Hamburg
The success of Joanne K. Rowling's Harry Potter novels, the Wachowskis' Matrix-trilogy and Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings has put a worldwide spotlight on themes of the fantastic, forcing academics to reevaluate the genres and to grant them prominent position in literary or cultural criticism. The overwhelming appeal of the fantastic – in any of its facets – has not gone unnoticed by the media and has led to intensified academic negotiations of the genres. In Anglo-American culture this popularity met with existing structures, such as the International Association for the Fantastic in the Arts (IAFA) or the Science Fiction Research Association (SFRA), which in turn welcomed the newfound public and academic interest.
The conference emphasizes the fantastic in its importance and relation to popular culture and understands it as a reflection of power relations and conflicts of interest. The popular anticipates these conflicts and expresses it before other social discourses can. By definition, the fantastic is able to negotiate alternative worlds and transgressive experiences of time and space, and thus represents a paradigmatic field of inquiry for cultural spaces. With historically specific developments of the 21st century in mind, the fantastic allows us to reveal social changes as no other genre does. What is the popular appeal of the fantastic grounded on? What alternatives does this cultural production offer?
The organizers call for proposals to be handed in by April 1st 2010. Proposals are possible as paper presentations (paper sessions of up to 3 presenters, 20 min each), panel discussions (moderated, with 3-5 panelists) or author readings from all areas of the fantastic, either in German or English.
Prof. Dr. Astrid Böger
Prof. Dr. em. H.-H. Müller

Aaron Cook pitched six solid innings, Clint Barmes hit a three-run homer and Seth Smith added a two-run shot to lead the Colorado Rockies to a 10-1 win over the San Diego Padres last night.
Cook continued his dominance over the Padres by getting out of two bases-loaded jams while only allowing one run. Cook raised his career record against the Padres to 13-4 and improved to 9-3 on the season.
He allowed a run in the first and pitched out of trouble in every inning except the second when he had his only 1-2-3 inning. The right-hander allowed eight hits, walked four and struck out eight.
Barmes homered in the sixth inning, his 11th, off Mike Ekstrom to increase the Rockies' lead to 7-1.
Smith homered off Ryan Webb in the eighth.
Game 2 of the four-game series is tonight at 8:05 (Mountain time) in San Diego.

Trade Lee? These teams regret returns for aces
Messages are flying in all directions lately. Ruben Amaro Jr. told CSNPhilly.com on Monday that "there's no blowing up" the Phillies, which appeared to be an indication that ace Cliff Lee would be staying put.
Then on Thursday, after Lee put together another masterful outing for his eighth win of the season, Lee avoided saying he wanted to stay with the Phillies, instead repeating that his mind is on winning. He didn't add "wherever that may be," but it seemed almost implied.
Lee has enormous trade value, as we analyzed earlier in the week. No player on the Phillies is capable of bringing back a foundation of young talent like Lee. It would be a wasted opportunity for the Phils to hang onto Lee in hopes of contending if they're still seven or eight games out of the playoffs by mid-July. Sure, they could close that gap over the final two months as they almost did in 2012, but what does that do, exactly? Let's say the Phillies do the unthinkable and surge for the second wild-card spot … their playoff run could very likely last one game. And then what? You'd go into the ensuing offseason with two high-priced aces but holes all over the place and few impact youngsters on their way up.
A trade of Lee is only advisable if the Phillies get a can't-miss prospect in return. A Jurickson Profar, an Oscar Taveras, a Xander Bogaerts. They can't simply deal him for a package of guys who might pan out; they need a difference-maker that could be the core of the offense along with Domonic Brown for the next seven years.
Unfortunately, the recent track record of teams trading aces is ugly, especially when it's for a grouping of players.
Have a look:
July 29, 2009 – Indians trade Cliff Lee and Ben Francisco to Phillies for Carlos Carrasco, Jason Donald, Lou Marson and Jason Knapp
This turned out terribly for Cleveland. They dealt Lee and a valuable fourth outfielder for a back-end starter who hasn't stayed healthy (Carrasco), a utility infielder (Donald), a third-string catcher (Marson), and a closer prospect who blew his arm out and has given up on baseball (Knapp).
Dec. 16, 2009 – Phillies trade Cliff Lee to Mariners for Phillippe Aumont, Tyson Gillies and J.C. Ramirez
Aumont is a failed starter who hasn't thrown enough strikes to be an effective reliever. He's a former first-round pick and is still young, but as the centerpiece of a deal for an ace, he's fallen well short of expectations.
Gillies has had a series of injuries, off-the-field problems and just hasn't progressed the way the Phillies thought he would. He's gone backwards this season, from Triple A to Double A after hitting .148 at Lehigh Valley.
Ramirez is merely an organizational arm.
July 9, 2010 – Mariners trade Cliff Lee to Rangers for Justin Smoak, Josh Lueke, Blake Beavan and Matt Lawson
Seattle was so intrigued by Smoak that it traded Lee to a division rival instead of the Yankees, who they had previously almost reached an agreement with.
Smoak has hit .229 in Seattle with average power. Lueke was dealt to Tampa Bay for catcher John Jaso, a solid hitter who is now in Oakland. Beavan has a 4.55 ERA in 49 games with the Mariners. Lawson was dealt to Cleveland for pitcher Aaron Laffey.
Another poor return for Lee.
Dec. 15, 2009 – Blue Jays trade Roy Halladay to Phillies for Kyle Drabek, Travis D'Arnaud and Michael Taylor
Looked like a very good return at the time, but Drabek has had terrible control in the majors (107 walks, 110 strikeouts) and is recovering from Tommy John surgery.
D'Arnaud is still a top prospect, league-wide, but since 2010 has missed ample time with bulging discs in his back, a torn PCL in his knee and a foot fracture. Toronto sent him to the Mets for R.A. Dickey, so that's a plus.
Taylor was quickly shipped to Oakland and has done nothing since his remarkable 2009 on the Phillies' farm (.320 BA, 20 HR, 28 doubles, 84 RBIs). He's hit .135 in 81 plate appearances in the majors. He looks like a 4-A player. The Phillies sold sky-high.
July 29, 2010 – Astros trade Roy Oswalt to Phillies for J.A. Happ, Anthony Gose and Jonathan Villar
Happ had a 4.83 ERA for the Astros in 18 games before being traded to Toronto for minor-leaguers last season. Gose was quickly flipped to Toronto for Brett Wallace, who has been a major disappointment in the majors and can't play any position but first.
Villar has progressed to Triple A in Houston's system, but isn't a top-tier prospect. He's hit .258 with a .712 OPS in 2,191 minor-league plate appearances.
Feb. 2, 2008 – Twins trade Johan Santana to Mets for Carlos Gomez, Phillip Humber, Kevin Mulvey and Deolis Guerra
This looked like a bad return at the time and hasn't worked out even a little for the Twins. Humber made 13 appearances for the Twins before being let go. Mulvey made two appearances for Minnesota before being dealt for Jon Rauch. Guerra is an organizational arm.
Gomez is the only one who turned into an impact player, but it wasn't even for the Twins. He broke out last year in Milwaukee, several years after being traded for J.J. Hardy.
July 7, 2008 – Indians trade CC Sabathia to Brewers for Matt LaPorta, Michael Brantley, Zach Jackson and Rob Bryson
It first appeared the Indians got a monstrous return for three months of Sabathia. But LaPorta – a highly-touted power prospect – never panned out and is stuck in Triple A. Jackson and Bryson haven't made an impact. Brantley has turned into an underrated, valuable corner outfielder. But if he's all you have left from dealing an ace in his prime, you didn't get enough.
July 26, 2000 – Phillies trade Curt Schilling to Diamondbacks for Omar Daal, Nelson Figueroa, Travis Lee and Vicente Padilla
Schilling was 32 at the time of the trade. In his next two full seasons in Arizona, he went 45-13 with a 3.10 ERA, won a World Series and twice finished second in Cy Young voting.
The Phillies got a fifth starter in Daal, a fringe arm in Figueroa, an all-field, no-hit first baseman in Lee and a mid-rotation starter in Padilla. Yet another example of a multi-player package not panning out.
Tomorrow, we'll analyze the few trades that did benefit the team dealing away its ace.

SANDUSKY, Ohio -- A weekend mishap that left two people hurt is raising a familiar question: Who inspects the rides at Cedar Point?
A cable on Skyhawk a super-sized swing ride snapped. Rider Tim Bostley's lips and teeth were struck by a section of fence shattered by the cable.
ORIGINAL STORY: Two injured when Cedar point ride cable snaps
"This huge crack, then people started screaming... a two by six struck me between my lip and jaw and drove my lip into my teeth," he said.
He praised park workers quick and professional handling of the difficult situation.
Around 3.5 million visitors a year come to Cedar Point. Day-in and day-out, Cedar Point inspects its own rides.
"There is nothing that commands more attention and is taken more seriously than the issue of safety as it relates to our guests and employees," park spokesman Bryan Edwards said.
He explained internal safety teams of maintenance , operations and security experts work with outside agencies regulators, engineers and ride-makers to ensure safety.
RELATED: State won't investigate Cedar Point ride accident
He claims some of Cedar Point's standards are adopted by other parks and organizations.
Rides are inspected every day before the park open. And they are reinspected if the park shuts down for weather.
Ohio is one of a few states that inspects amusement park rides.
A team of inspectors from the Department of Agriculture spends weeks checking out rides before the park opens, does random inspections of equipment and operators and investigates accidents where injuries involve hospital admissions.
The weekend accident did not require that, but the state will decide when the Skyhawk can resume operations.
Chief Inspector Mike Vartorella said," The ride's going to be shut down until we can get with manufacturers and owners..It will be out of commission until we are content."
The amusement park industry prides itself on its safety record.
375 million people attend U.S. parks every year.
Dennis Speigel, an industry consultant said, 'Theme parks and amusement parks are one of the safest places to be on earth... Safety is the hallmark of the industry....If it weren't theme parks would be out of business."
But there are questions about how forceful any state oversight is.
A Dayton Daily News investigation found that in ten park accidents going back to 2010, the state did not issue any citations or impose any fines.
And a roller coaster at King's Island operated for years causing rider complaints, safety and operational issues before the park took it out of service and demolished it on its own, not because of state involvement.

Monday Jan. 19, 2009
OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) -- Ravens running back Willis McGahee returned to his Baltimore home Monday after spending the night in a Pittsburgh hospital recovering from a helmet-to-helment hit in the AFC championship game against the Steelers.
McGahee was carted from the field on a stretcher Sunday after colliding with Steelers safety Ryan Clark. The play occurred in the fourth quarter of Pittsburgh's 23-14 victory.
Although he had significant neck pain, McGahee had movement in his arms and legs after the hit. He was taken to UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh and held overnight for observation. McGahee was released early Monday morning and back in Baltimore home by early afternoon.

The ACOG looks way too small. It's well-modeled and -skinned at least.
Alpha Project is a Battlefield 2 modification which goals are to bring back all the features that were left out in the retail game. The gameplay style of the mod is a mixture of arcade and realism.
The ACOG looks way too small. It's well-modeled and -skinned at least.
Nah. It's fine. Compare it to some pics of a acog on a m4, and its about right. It looks like the mount is a little lower (looks like it does not include the iron sight peep hole mount, but that is fine). Defensereview.com

At Stockton, California, and St. Louis restaurants, McDonald's (MCD) patrons can order Garlic Parmesan, Zesty Ranch and Spicy Buffalo fries. The new fries require some assembly and come with step-by-step instructions for customers to sprinkle their fries with seasonings.
McDonald's spokesperson Lisa McComb confirmed the tests, which Foodbeast.com first reported, to CNBC.
Search Jobs
Restaurant chains often test items in select markets before deciding whether to expand a new item nationwide.
No word yet on whether McDonald's will expand the test.
"As with all tests, we aren't in a position to draw conclusions or make assumptions about the test since it is just beginning but we hope customers in these two markets enjoy the new flavors," McComb said.
The move comes as McDonald's battles to turn around its U.S. same-store sales, which have dropped 1.3 percent so far this year.

Ravens | Ezekiell Elliott in play for Baltimore
Thu, 28 Apr 2016 14:35:03 -0700
Ohio State RB Ezekiel Elliott will be strongly considered by the Baltimore Ravens if he is available when the Ravens pick sixth overall.
Fantasy Tip: Elliott is easily the best running back available in this year's draft class. He would be splitting time with the likes of Justin Forsett and Lorenzo Taliaferro in Baltimore, though. He would likely have more fantasy value with certain other teams, but he still has RB2 potential.

Ohio State DE Joey Bosa and other pass-rushers are the focus of the Baltimore Ravens with their No. 6 pick in the NFL Draft, according to a source. Bosa and Oregon DE DeForest Buckner are considered the top-two pass-rushers in this year's draft class. Owner Steve Bisciotti said young pass-rushers are an emphasis in this year's draft because the Ravens don't know how long their dynamic pass-rushers in LBs Elvis Dumervil and Terrell Suggs have left.

Fantasy Tip: T-Rich looks fantastic. With his weight issues behind him, he'll have to prove that his vision in the backfield has improved. He's worth consideration in the final couple of rounds of drafts as a dark horse RB5.

Fantasy Tip: Lynch is widely considered to be the No. 3 quarterback in this year's draft class. He really turned heads at his pro day and is now viewed as a first-round selection. He'll compete for the starting job wherever he goes, but it's unlikely that he'll have much fantasy relevance in 2016.

Baltimore Ravens QB Joe Flacco (knee) said he hasn't done much throwing this offseason and has been limited to 15-yard tosses. Flacco acknowledged that he'll need to start throwing soon. He said he has resumed running, though.
Fantasy Tip: Flacco should have more weapons at his disposal in the passing game this year, but coming off a serious knee injury, he's even riskier than ever, and Flacco has never had a high fantasy ceiling at quarterback. He should be considered a fantasy backup, at best.

Hi fellow BFers,
I've been commuting by bike for the last 5 years and absolutely love it. I started off with a hybrid, which I traded in for a touring bike a couple of years ago. I love the bike (brava), but am beginning to feel like something more city friendly would be nice. So, I'm here to see if any of you guys and gals might have any suggestion.
My issues with the brava (and, yes, these are verrrrrrrrry minor, but would be nice to make them non-issues so i am more likely to use my bike for just about everything instead of waiting for a bus on some occasions):
-- must carry lights on me at all times in case i return when dark (pain to carry around, doubt they would last long if left on the bike)
-- sporty drop down handlebars not as convenient as flat handle bars/angled back.
-- gearing is nice, but even in a hilly place like SF not necessary at all -- 8 speed would be plenty, even 3 speed should be good.
-- no racks/fenders.
I'm thinking something like the Trek Belleville coming out soon? Any suggestions? My main requirements -- chainguard, fenders, flat/angledback handlebars. Dynamo lights would be great too.

The summer holidays – Memorial Day, Fourth of July and Labor Day – are among the most popular at beaches across Orange County, and finding parking at state beaches is anything but easy.
At some of those beaches, parking is likely going to get a little more expensive, too.
The California Department of Parks and Recreation will be able to adjust parking rates at a moment's notice on busy days at Crystal Cove State Park, Doheny State Beach and San Clemente State Beach with automated payment machines. It won permission last week from the state Coastal Commission to do so.
But in San Clemente, at least, the plan is already facing some opposition.

NSA No-Brainer
I had wanted to blog on this previously, but never got around to it due to the holiday chaos. So when the Christmas dust cleared I discover that the media is still blathering on about this issue. The Left and their media lap dogs are shocked, shocked I say, to find that the government was tapping phones of people in the United States suspected of ties to terrorists. Not to sound like a teenager, but "Well, duh!"
Now I suppose that a lot of people are shocked that I'm not shocked, but I'm not. I don't know about you but this is why I pay taxes. My only negative reaction to this leak, other that outrage that the leaker hasn't been broken on the rack yet, is discovering that we weren't doing it before 9/11. I had always assumed we were.
As far as I'm concerned, the people that leaked the NSA tap story and the CIA overseas prison story have blood on their hands. The papers that were traitorous enough to print the stories are equally culpable. These folks may portray themselves as great humanists but that humanism appears to stop when it's American blood flowing.

in Fruit & veg
I have recently bought a fruit tree called Patio Apple/Pear Tree,the guy at the Garden Centre claimed that it is a Dwarf Apple tree with a Pear Grafted onto it.
Does this sound right to you?
Also if it's true the apple and pear should pollenate each other shouldn't they?
You can buy mixed trees so that bit sounds fine but not sure about the pollination as apples normally need another apple froom the right group, and pears another pear to pollinate them (unless they are a self fertile variety of course!) Not sure if this helps you or not really!
Hello James,Karen,Katie,
A trick that gardeners like to perform from time to time is to graft several different cultivars onto the same rootstock. You would then have, for example, different apple varieties that can pollinate each other. It's a method of producing fruit in a small space. It's called a family tree (good pun). A quick internet search reveals a few examples of apple and pear grafting, but if you want fruit I would recommend buying two sure fire compatible varieties of the same genus. They need to flower at the same time too!
Enjoy it,

February 23, 2011 — At The Asia Foundation event, "The Dynamic U.S.-Asia Economic Relationship" held on February 22, Charles Collyns, Treasury Assistant Secretary for International Affairs, discussed the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership to better integrate the Asia-Pacific economies. This pan-Asian free trade pact would reduce non-tariff barriers that prevent many small businesses from participating in global trade. A wire story in Reuters highlighted Collyns' remarks.

AH yes...social injustice... a familiar bell ringing in my old hippie ear. Shall I wade in?? Well...I'll go in ankle deep here, OK.
This is no a problem that has a solution. It has only agreements to disagree.
I disagree profoundly with the KKK but I defend their right to free speech and, yes, even when it points it's boney finger of vitriol my direction because of some of the beliefs I hold dear.
I have an idea..."Hey, Muslims, if you don't like Charlie Hebdo cartoons, don't fuckin look at them" because there are MILLIONS of your brothers who are peace loving, free speech defending, and TRUTHFUL practitioners of your "faith". Matter of fact, a French police officer that these guys murdered was Muslim.
In a society, we have to have rules, laws, and boundaries. I could possibly drive 50KPH in a 25KPH zone but there are laws against that because at some point in time, lawmakers decided the risk to reward balance was too great to drive faster than 25. Even though I am (confession alert!) a bit of a voyeur and even a bit of an exhibitionist, I don't have or watch sex in public because there are laws against it (damn!). I SHOULD be able to freely fuck on a city fountain, but some Bible thumper took exception to it when someone did it once, so lawmakers did their thing.
This silly analogy can be extended to the extreme, as it was/is with Charlie Hebdo.
The French have laws against veils, crosses, etc etc for a just that particular social reason. Frankly, I'm iffy about it, but if I were Muslim, I'd abide by that law because it is the law of the land I choose to live in. Don't like it? MOVE, or get involved in the accessible French system to try and change it. Terrorism has historically not worked and now the Muslims have an even BIGGER PR problem. Even folks who disagree with some of Charlie's provocative tactics, have now come to defend their "right" to publish what they will. Millions of dollars have now poured in to keep that magazine running and people are flocking to want to work for the publication.
So perhaps nocturnaliss.deviantart.com is right, "And as I write this, I get this feeling the third world war has already begun, and nobody has quite understood that yet (and I also hope I'm wrong)."
The hope I maintain is that we are now coming into an age where people are more informed, more educated, and more world aware. With education, statistics suggest, religion dissipates and it's power shrinks. Not in my lifetime I know and probably not even in the lifetime of my children, but if humanity survives, my hope is a larger awareness of the consequences of actions will precede the actions themselves. That is my HOPE.
In the meantime, I turn 65 in March and am able to see more clearly the scope and limitations of my own sphere of influence to make this hope become flesh. But as I have produced two children who now share this hope, Mr. Jihadist just had a litter of 7.
Rather than take up more space, I will simply refer you all to the Bard, who said it best.

Sunlover- was the cause of your symptoms truly just anxiety? I am going through the same thing and convinced it is pancreatic cancer?!! How long did these symptoms persist mine have been a bit over a month now and I am overwhelmed with worry! I agree though gomu- you shouldn't be worried stress and antibiotics really cause you to lose your appetite, and a few pounds is nothing.
Thanks guys. I'm 5'9' and was 163pounds I weighed myself yesterday and I was surprised to see I am at 155. This morning I weighed myself again and I've lost another 3.5 ounces since yesterday despite feeling like I've been eating much more properly the past three days...Does that sound ok??
Thanks sun lover- this sounds a lot like what I am going through but I also have heartburn and gas/belching. I have been to a GI doc and he believes it is stress related as well and my labs looks normal besides gastritis. I just love food so much I never expected this to happen!

Flatiron welcomes new detachment sergeant
June 13, 2013
By Nathan Pfau, Army Flier Staff Writer
Related Links
FORT RUCKER, Ala. (June 13, 2013) -- Soldiers, Families and friends gathered at Cairns Army Airfield June 7 to welcome the U.S. Air Ambulance Detachment's new noncommissioned officer in charge.
Sgt. 1st Class Troy Rudolph, incoming detachment sergeant, assumed responsibility from Sgt. 1st Class Gregory Givings, outgoing detachment sergeant, as the NCO sword was passed from Givings to Maj. Joseph C. Alexander, Flatiron commander, to Rudolph during a change of responsibility ceremony in the Flatiron conference room.
"This is a very small organization with a huge mission, and today we have the awesome opportunity to say goodbye to Sergeant Givings and welcome Sergeant Rudolph," said Alexander. "I've had the great pleasure of working with Sergeant Rudolph, and I'm looking forward to having him come on board as the detachment first sergeant."
Rudolph began his military career when he enlisted in the Navy in 1993 as a hospital corpsman. He was honorably discharged from the Navy in March 1997, and enlisted in the Army as a 91B Combat Medic in November of the same year.
His assignments throughout his Army career have taken him all across the U.S. from Fort Benning, Ga., to Fort Carson, Colo., as well as abroad to Ansbach, Germany, where he served with the 5th Battalion, 158th Aviation Regiment.
Rudolph has served in many positions before coming to Fort Rucker, including medical NCO, treatment NCO, Battalion Aide Station NCOIC, flight medic, operations NCO, squad leader, platoon sergeant and rear detachment first sergeant.
"This is a huge responsibility, but it's going to be an awesome experience," said Rudolph, "one that I've been looking forward to for a long time."
The incoming detachment sergeant took time out to thank all of those who helped him get to where he is today, but also thanked those that allowed him the opportunity to do so.
"This will be my first assignment as a detachment NCOIC, and I really appreciate the opportunity," he said. "To the Soldiers and Families, I thank you, but most importantly, I want to thank my Family for supporting me."
As the unit welcomed the new detachment officer, they also said goodbye to a face that they had grown all-too familiar with.
"(Givings) is an individual that I've known for several years and I've been very blessed and fortunate to have served with him," said Alexander during the ceremony. "This is a guy who's been here for almost two years, and in that time, this unit has conducted nearly 3,000 flight hours … and executed dozens and dozens of life-saving medevac missions.
"I count him among the best that I've ever served with," he added.
Givings said that if he could sum up his career as the unit's detachment first sergeant, the word he would use is "blessed."
"I'm blessed to be in a great unit, I'm blessed to have had the Soldiers that I had under my command, and I'm blessed to have great commanders," he said. "Margaret Thatcher (former British prime minister) once said 'If you set out to be liked, you'll be prepared to compromise on anything at any time, and you'll achieve nothing.'
"I didn't set out to be liked," he continued. "I came here to do a job, and in the process of doing that job, I developed some great friendships."
Givings went on to thank everyone, from his Soldiers, to commanders and all their Families, and said that when he first became the detachment first sergeant, he set out to take care of the Families, and he hopes he achieved what he set out to do.

I got some interest in my current bike so there is a good chance that I will sell it rather than upgrade its components. As a replacement I am sort of torn between Motobecane Cafe Express 3 and Cafe Express 8. The difference mainly is in the IGH (3-speed vs 8-speed) plus the 8 has fancier wheels. The difference in price is $100. I am riding the bike in summer only on a flat paved roads. No hill climbing, racing or anything like that. Purely recreational riding on a nice weekend days.
So what do you think? Price difference is a secondary factor here. I am mainly interested in not buying something that I will not take full advantage of. My current bike has only 7-speeds and it is more than I need for the type of riding I do. I am just not familiar with the 3-speed IGH so I am not sure if that would be sufficient.

LED-Equipped Gown Monitors Carbon Dioxide in the Air
Posted By Mike Chino On December 21, 2009 @ 2:50 pm In Accessories and Fashion,Design,Green Lighting | 1 Comment
Danish design company Diffus [1] has created a stunning LED-studded dress [1] that lights up when it detects carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The luminous ensemble is laced with conductive embroidery that links a CO2 sensor to an Arduino Lilypad microprocessor. When the presence of CO2 is detected the lights begin to blink faster and faster, issuing an immediate warning about the invisible environmental threat.

I'm looking for a rear seat for carrying my daughter on short errands, usually under 3 miles. The difficulty I'm having is that of the seats I've seen locally are for tiny kids. My kid is tall and light, ~45 inches and maybe 40 lbs all bundled up. Something like the Bobike Junior looks ideal, except she's 10 lbs too light, and it doesn't have anything to keep feet away from spokes. The Bb Maxi would work weightwise, but I'm not sure about height. It also doesn't fold down like the Junior. Online, the thing that looks closest to what I would like is an old Schwinn folding child carrier, with armrests.
Any suggestions?

Check out War Child
Midnight Sun commenter Allan sent me this e-mail:
This Web site is devoted to sending aid to children affected by war, in various parts of the world. It provides education, food, shelter, and other basic living needs.
As if that wasn't cool enough, they put out an album of covers of some of the biggest acts in the music biz. Now, the neat part is the original artists got to choose who they wanted to cover their songs.
The results are actually pretty cool, and worth a good listen to on youtube. Case in point: The Hold Steady (pictured) covering Bruce Springsteen's "Atlantic City."
