Ben Raby, wtop.com
ARLINGTON, Va. – Washington Capitals prospect Tom Wilson knew the odds were stacked against him. The likelihood of an 18-year-old making a Capitals roster that general manager George McPhee recently described as "ready to go" was slim at best.
Wilson even said as much on Tuesday when he predicted that "it could be any day that [head coach Adam] Oates calls me in" to deliver the news that he'd be returning to his junior team in the Ontario Hockey League.
Sure enough, that call came Wednesday afternoon when Wilson was re-assigned to the OHL's Plymouth Whalers.
Still, over the course of three practices and one scrimmage, Wilson didn't look out of place. And, if his goal was to impress Capitals' management, then chalk it up as mission accomplished.
"He looked great out there," Oates said after the Caps' Tuesday scrimmage against the ECHL's Reading Royals.
"He skated great, he looked like one of the guys and sometimes I didn't realize it was him."
"Our director of player development [Steve Richmond] insisted that he be here," McPhee explained on day one of training camp.
"I hadn't planned on bringing him, but I'm glad we did. Our director of player development is paid to go out and keep an eye on our kids and he said: 'This kid deserves to be here.'"
The Capitals selected Wilson in the first round (16th overall) of last June's NHL entry draft and see him as a physical player with the ability to score.
The 6-foot-4, 210-pound forward has done both this season in the OHL where he has 13 goals, 36 points and 59 penalty minutes in 31 games with Plymouth.
"That's a big thing in my game in junior," said Wilson.
"I like to play physical. They've seen that. So when I come here I'm just trying to learn, pick little stuff up. Watching all the guys is a huge opportunity for me because they're all top-notch, best in the world. Guys like Ovechkin- I can learn something new every day from them. It's pretty cool being up here. I'm just trying to show other parts of my game." The amount of contact was kept to a minimum during Tuesday's scrimmage but that Wilson still impressed Caps' management speaks to his all-around game.
"Part of his game is being physical and we asked the guys to tone that down and he looked very sharp out there," Oates said. "I was very impressed- very different than [last summer's] development camp."
Wilson spent his time at camp skating primarily alongside Jason Chimera, Jay Beagle and Joel Ward on one of Washington's checking lines.
At 18-years-old, Wilson isn't eligible to play for the Caps' top minor league affiliate in the American Hockey League yet – the AHL has an age minimum of 19- but he is eligible to see time in the NHL.
Under the new collective bargaining agreement, NHL teams can dress junior players for as many as six games before the first year of their entry level contract would kick in.
Barring multiple injuries later this season though, it seems unlikely that the opportunity will arise for Wilson who is now expected to spend the rest of the year in junior.
Still, for four days in January, Wilson got his first taste at an NHL training camp. He now returns to his junior team more confident about his game and his ability to play with some of the best.
"These guys are all professionals and they pick things up really quickly," he said.
"I have an advantage that everyone's learning the new system, so I'm just trying to show that I can learn that and implement that into my game and play smart hockey."

IV:07:01 Deferred Payment Plan
General Provisions:
The deferred payment plan is available to allow students to make payments on their registration fees for credit classes. The plan does not apply to books or non-credit classes.
The deferred payment plan is available for regular academic terms, but not for summer or other short terms.
All students in good financial standing and with no outstanding account balances from previous terms are eligible to participate in the deferred payment program. Students that have failed to make timely payments in previous terms may be denied the right to participate in the deferred payment program.
Payment Terms:
All financial aid awarded by the institution, including student loans and third party contracts must be applied toward payment of total fee balances before the deferred payment plan may be utilized. At least 50% of the remaining balance after financial aid, contracts, and discounts are applied must be paid when initiating the deferred payment option. Student's failing to pay the 50% initial payment will be purged from the class rolls. The remaining balance may be paid in two equal installments. Due dates for these payments will be set by the business office with approximately 30 days between due dates. It is the student's responsibility to make timely payments regardless of receiving a bill.
Service Charges and Fines:
A $25 per term fee will be assessed each student participating in the deferment program to help defray administrative costs. An additional late payment charge of $25 will be assessed on each installment that is not paid by the due date plus a ten-day grace period. The student will be responsible for all collection or legal costs incurred. Withdrawals from classes will not alter any remaining balance due except to the extent that any refund may be applied in accordance with TBR Guideline B-060.
Approval of Exceptions:
In accordance with these guidelines the President, Vice President for Business and Finance, and the Assistant Vice President for Business and Finance have the authority to determine the applicability of the provisions of the deferred payment program and to approve exceptions in instances of unusual circumstances. All such actions should be properly documented for auditing purposes.

At 19 months he still needs at least 11 hours at night and an additional 2-5 more during the day. The total will average around 14 hours in a 24 hour period but could easily be more if that's the kind of guy he is. He might just not be getting enough sleep. Does he snore or have apnea? That could also impact how good the sleep he is getting is. 19 month olds tend to be REALLY active and they are still growing at an astounding rate both in terms of their physical development and how much they understand about the world. Sleep is necessary for physical development and to make sense of all he is learning.posted 10/15/2011 by emilyjp1

Mutu one of the youngest players for the ISLMonday, September 29th, 2014
The newly formed Indian Super League has been attracting a lot of attention with its ability to attract a number of former great players like Nicolas Anelka. The league is set to take place only for a few months from October. Since it will not be taking place over a period of 10 months like other major leagues, it has attracted the attention of several former players like Robert Pires. Despite being out of retirement for three years now, Pires returned to football by signing this short-term contract with Goa FC. Anelka has moved to Mumbai FC and the former Chelsea striker will be looking to continue his goal scoring prowess.
The Indian Super League, at one stage, where confident of attracting former Barcelona superstar Ronaldinho, who was available on a free transfer, before he decided to move to Mexican league. The latest acquisitions are the former Chelsea striker Adrian Mutu and former Manchester United defender Mikel Silvestre. Mutu famously failed a drug test while he was a Chelsea player and he is still being sued by his former club for money in the tune of £ 14 million. After a stellar career in the Premier League by playing for the likes of Manchester United and Arsenal, Silvestre has been signed by South Indian franchise Chennayin.
This team will be managed by former Italy defender Marco Materazzi, who will also play for the team. The former Inter Milan man is one of the high profile players for Chennayin after having lifted the World Cup title in 2006. Mutu is reportedly close to signing for Pune FC, who have a partnership with Italian club Fiorentina. Mutu is well-known for having represented Fiorentina before recently playing for French club Ajaccio. At 35 years of age, the former Romanian international is one of the younger players to sign for the Indian Super League.

Two injured as Oskari storm rips through Helsinki region
Falling trees injure two in Espoo and cause a railway blockage in Helsinki.
TWO PEOPLE suffered serious injuries on an outdoor trail in Ymmersta, Espoo, on Sunday evening, when a tree fell on them as the Oskari storm swept across the Helsinki region. Two ambulances and a rescue helicopter were dispatched to respond to the incident, after it was reported by passer-by.
The victims suffered multiple injuries, tells Petri Maunula from the Länsi-Uusimaa Department for Rescue Services. The base of the fallen tree, he adds, was in poor condition.
At the Helsinki Airport, gusty winds peaked at 26 metres per second.
In East Helsinki, a metro train collided with a tree that had fallen onto the tracks between the Itäkeskus and Siilitie stations at approximately 8.30 pm. Although the severe collision caused damage to the cab of the train, no one was injured.
"The train was going at a decent speed when it crashed. For a few seconds, I thought it would fall off the tracks. We were all startled. For a few seconds, we exchanged glances, and I thought: was this it," recounted Reija Sann, one of the passengers aboard the train.
"Luckily, no one was injured," she said.
Although rescue services arrived on the scene shortly after the collision, the train was not released to continue its run until after 9.30 pm. The passengers were allowed to leave the train at the Siilitie station.
In addition, the Oskari storm brought down power lines, leaving tens of thousands of households in both coastal and inland regions without power. In the Häme, Pirkanmaa and Central Finland regions, more than 15,000 homes on the Elenia grid remained without power at midnight. In Southern and Southwest Finland, in turn, more than 11,000 households were cut off from the Fortum grid.

Best Motorcycling States
In the following report, Progressive Insurance reveals states with the best riding to help bikers maximize their cruising time
From Arizona's Grand Canyon to New York's Catskill Mountains, all 50 states offer unique, great places to ride.
Minneapolis IMS
AMA Pro Roadracer Jessica Zalusky is set to appear at the Progressive International Motorcycle Show (IMS) taking place at the Minneapolis Convention Center Feb. 4-6, 2011.
Sucker Punch Sally's, the premier old school motorcycle builder known for producing the best stripped-down bobbers and choppers, is continuing its partnership with Progressive Insurance, the country's number-one motorcycle insurer.
Highlights of last year's partnership included building two Progressive Insurance bikes; designing a co-branded giveaway t-shirt; designing a 28-foot trailer featuring both Progressive and SPS; and appearing together at all 11 IMS Cycle World Motorcycle Shows.
Motorcyclist John Kiefer of Williamsburg, Va., has been biking for more than 35 years, but thanks to Progressive, is receiving his first new bike ever at the Republic of Texas Bike Rally – and it's worth $30,000! The custom-built bike Kiefer won in a random sweepstakes drawing was the prototype for the Sucker Punch Sally's (SPS) "Swinger" production model.
The bike is a classic bobber with a twist-it has a swing-arm suspension on the rear end with exposed adjustable shocks that provide a smoother ride than a traditional stripped-down bike.

Personal business at the Dallas Trade Mart drew Patricia from the frozen environs of Vancouver (even though it actually was colder in Dallas than Canada!). Many meals, long talks, laughs (and tears!), screwed up hotel plans, a talkative GPS lady, lots of Starbucks coffee, a broken tooth, crowds of Market shoppers, and confounding traffic detours later -- Patricia and I decided that we:
1. Actually like each other.
2. Get along really well!
3. Have similar temperaments.
4. Don't get on each other's nerves, AT ALL!
5. Have compatible tastes.
6. Possess about the same amount of stamina (not much!)
7. And travel very well together.
We spent a day at the Dallas Trade Mart visiting the showrooms of places that bloggers have buzzed about all year - the Shine showroom in particular! And we spent a day just clothes shopping in Highland Park Village. But I think Patricia will agree with me, that the best time we had was late last night when we discussed our blogs together over the computer. We realized how competitive we were about our stats! A word of advice to bloggers - never, never, EVER look at your readership or Technorati stats with a fellow blogger - your friendship might not survive THAT test! But despite this, it was really great fun to finally share the blogging experience in person after sharing it for months via back and forth emails. This experience is one that I highly recommend. We looked at magazine pictures and web sites of designers we both admire and just talked about blogging in general until late into the night.
So, you might be wondering, (probably not, but I'll tell you anyway), will Patricia and I ever get a chance to meet up again? As I pulled away in my car, Patricia informed me that she was going to force me to go to Paris with her. Ok, so twist my arm, I'm game! Name the date, Patricia!
Patricia's beautiful and charismatic daughter who joined us in Dallas. I thought she looked adorable in Tory's pink T shirt, but apparently she didn't agree - she didn't buy it.
Major shopping purchases!!! That's Charmaine reflected in the mirror to the right.

IUD Bleeding & Cramping
I had the Mirena IUD inserted about 10 weeks after my son was born. He is 3 months in a few days. I know it hasn't been that long, but I've been bleeding and cramping A LOT. I am also clotting. I bled continuously up until 3 days before I had the IUD inserted and no sooner did I leave the doctor's office and I was bleeding heavily AGAIN. I've been bleeding for 3 straight months with only that 3 day break since my son was born. I don't know if this is normal and I can't go back to see my doctor because I no longer have the insurance and no income to pay. I'm a little bit worried after reading up on other women and the ways that some had issues for over a year and had to have it removed. Any advice?

But a followup visit post-insertion should have been covered under the IUD insertion? I don't know. I live in Canada where this never happens where they can't see the doctor because they don't have insurance! All I can say is vote for Obama as he's America's only hope at having healthcare for everyone! I don't know what else to say. I wish you the best.posted 04/14/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
I had to have mine removed as it gave me a huge cyst, and that is what caused me severe cramping, that may be what is going on with you, I didn't read other posts, sorry if I'm repeating what someone else has said! But I tried the mirena, and like I said I wound up with a cyst, my doc had asked me to come back 4 weeks after he had put the mirena in to ensure it was in place and everything and thats when he noticed the cyst, so he told me to come back 6 weeks after that to make sure the cyst went away on its own (as they normally do according to him) and it did, however as that sono appt they noticed the damn mirena was out of place :/ so we took it out and I've been on the depo shot ever since, and the worse problem I've had with it is it makes my face break out when I first get it and right before it comes up due (every 3 months). I'm glad I wound up having it removed though because it interrupted mine and DF's sex life, the strings never "softened" and they poked DF! LOL!posted 04/16/2012 by LuvinbabyMason
You might ask your doc how much a follow-up appt. would cost without insurance- follow-ups are sometiems free. I've never had a doc charge me more than $60 when I've asked- usually it's only around $20. (this was a pediatrician, though- but I can't imagine it would hurt to ask...)posted 04/15/2012 by estategale
I agree, you should definitely see your doc. I didn't normalize until a year after I got mine- just in time to get it out again when we decided to have one more baby. Sidenote: they say that you should be able to conceive immediately after removal? It took us four times as long to get pregnant this time around, and I can't help but wonder if it was the IUD that changed things, because other than being two years older, nothing about our bodies has changed!posted 04/15/2012 by estategale
I wish I could go see my doctor, but I have no insurance and no money to pay them. :/ So far I'm freaking out about the things I've read about it and not quite sure what I can really even do about it other than just tough it out and hope it gets better...posted 04/14/2012 by Crashful29
You should see your doctor as maybe it's not completely in the right place. What did your doctor say at the followup visit post IUD insertion to check the position. As both times I had the Mirena put in, my doctor had me come back 1-2 weeks later to check the strings were the same length as she'd left them. Regardless, I would go in for a speculum exam to make sure it's properly in place. I am on my second Mirena (first was between my children's births) and have only had heavy bleeding when I stopped breastfeeding. But my doctor figured it was a hormonal shirt and now I'm back to normal. Plus my strings had curled up in the cervix. Good luck!posted 04/13/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

MADISON — As Madison and Columbus North prepared for tip-off at Madison High School on Friday night, there was no denying the height difference between the two squads.
With three of North's starters standing at 6-foot-7 or above, they towered over Madison's starting lineup that doesn't break 6-3.
However, it was not inside action, but rather perimeter shots that ultimately made the difference as North rolled to an 88-57 victory against the Cubs.
The Bull Dogs (13-1) had five players hit shots from beyond the 3-point line, combining for 12 3-point goals on the night and shooting 68 percent from the field.
The Cubs had three from beyond the arc.
North junior Evan Henry had three of those 3-point goals on his way to 20 points.
"We shot a high percentage from outside tonight, and that is a key thing for us," North head coach Jason Speer said. "We were unselfish with the ball, and our transition game was really working well for us."
The game started out close, with Madison pressuring on defense and using its agility and speed to get to the basket.
With the Bull Dogs up 22-20 after a quick first quarter, the Bull Dogs increased pressure on defense and continued to hit jumpers.
North senior Paul Salee came off the bench to hit two straight 3-point goals in the second quarter for the Bull Dogs, while Henry had one from beyond the arc as well as some key drives to help North outscore Madison 20-9 in the second quarter.
"Madison did a very good job in the first quarter; we forced them into some perimeter shots that they made, however we were able to keep the pedal down for 32 minutes, and we just wore them out," Speer said.
The Bull Dogs stayed ahead of the quick Madison squad for all four quarters, despite several attempts by the Cubs to make a run.
North senior Tori Jackson delivered on inside shots for the Bull Dogs as well as one 3-point goal by the 6-8 center on his way to 20 points and nine rebounds.
North's Clint Cunningham, Josh Speidel and Salee each added 10 points for North, while Elliott Welmer had nine and Sawyer Glick added seven.
Madison's Carson Wattenbarger led the scoring for the Cubs with 16 points, followed by Matt Woolard with 14.


text: Just fitted a Cane Creek Thudbuster. No problem in fitting it except with regard to getting clearance for the top bag on the Seat mounted pannier. Had to push the bag carrier back to get the "swing Clearance", so only time will tell if this will cause a problem. Proof of the pudding as they say, and only a short ride of 5 miles, and not offroad yet. No wonder this has been rated as the ultimate suspension post. Plenty of potholes found to test it, and it works. Movement initially felt strange, but even that was natural by the end of the ride. This is the long travel version that gives 3" of movement, and there is a short travel of 1 1/2". Thanks to getting too many shocks transmitted to the tender area, I hope I have got the right one.

After 4 losses (5/08, 11/08, 1/09, 5/09), welcomed DS 2/21/11 and DS 8/13/12 and loving every moment...
We've had some new ladies join the group and I'm sure we'll have some more. So I thought I'd start this thread which also has a link to kelly's original post which started this all.
Here's my story...
i'm 32 and DH and I have been TTC#1 since feb 2008. since then we've had 4 miscarriages.
1- 5/08- passed clots @ 5wks and u/s showed blighted ovum
2- 11/08- spotting, u/s @7wks showed good heartbeat, placed on bedrest, repeat u/s a week later showed everything was gone; D&C.
started seeing a RE (first appt was actually on the EDD of my 1st m/c) who tested me for hypercoaguable diseases, MTHFR, chromosomal/karyotyping abnormalities, lupus, diabetes, thyroid, etc- all of which were negative. started baby aspirin along with my multivitamin and then started on femara (aromatase inhibitor pills to help regulate hormones/stim ovulation) .
3- 1/09 chemical pregnancy with first cycle of femara. was then started on estrace and then progesterone, in addition to femara.
4- 5/09 chemical pregnancy again , this time without any meds bc i had already done 4 cycles of femara and estrace and wanted to see what i could do on my own.
After 5 unsuccessful cycles on femara, we moved on to injections of SQ menopur and IUI this past June. Although we had 2 follicles >20mm and 92 million motile sperm, the first cycle was unsuccessful. I'm currently on my 2nd cycle of SQ menopur and IUI (using an ovidrel trigger) and will be having my IUI tomorrow morning. i really hope and pray this works and i get my BFP soon.
good luck to everyone,
After 4 losses (5/08, 11/08, 1/09, 5/09), welcomed DS 2/21/11 and DS 8/13/12 and loving every moment...
Hi Everyone! I am new to this board. Last Tuesday I delivered my son at 18 weeks and I must confess I am still in shock. My husband and I went from having a perfectly healthy pregnancy to labor pains on Saturday night. Sunday we found out that we were funneling, then the bag passed through but there was still cervix left. However because I was bleeding profusely the OB on call decided against an emergency cerclage. Monday my OB saw me but said there was nothing for me to do but lay with my head down and my feet up in hopes that the bag would go back in, but since my cervix was still changing the prognosis was bleak. I got in contact with a high risk OB specialist that I worked with previously and he had me transfered to the hospital where he worked Monday night. I immediately went to the OR and he tried to do an emergency cerclage, but it was too late. I delivered Tuesday morning. I finally got the diagnosis of Cervical insufficiency even though I had a loss at 21 weeks in 2004 with my daughter.
So now my husband and I have memory boxes, tiny doll clothing and pictures of our children. But we have no living children. But we won't ever forget our first daughter and son.
So hopefully I can be a comfort to someone and hopefully get some comfort from this board.

Angel Baby - Marie Candi J'Lin - 7/14/2004
Angel Baby - Joshua Caleb Greene - 9/29/2009
This is my story-
I first got pregnant at 18, I went for my second u/s at roughly 7 weeks to find out there was not a HB. I ended up with a D&C just 3 days before my high school graduation. I still do not know exactly what happened nor can I get copies of my records as the doctor's office went out of business.
I then was pregnant at 23 years old (just turned 23), I began spotting and miscarried naturally at 5.5 weeks.
I received my 3rd BFP in July 2009 at 24 years old. I began spotting again and m/c naturally the first week of August at 5-6 weeks.
I was waiting for my next cycle, to have the testing done to see if there is any reason for my losses. To my surprise I got a BFP on 9-7-09. I went in for HCg draw and my levels were doing GREAT, no spotting and I thought for SURE IT WAS FINALLY going to work out. I then went to my first u/s to date my pregnant since I didn't have LMP to go by. The tech couldn't locate at sac in my uterus but thought there was a possible sac in my left tube. I went to the ER that following Sunday, as I was bleeding ans PARANOID about it being ectopic since my HCG levels were rising but not doubling. (2810 from 890 the week prior). The sac had grown and measured 5w2d. My HCg went from 2810 to 3700. I underwent laprascopic surgery on Monday 9/27/09.
I am having a very hard time with this loss - I thought it would be easier but it's the worst one! I can't stop crying and am so angry with the world. I have no hope that I will ever have a child and am terrified that my dream to be a mother will never happen. I just want one baby - is that too much to ask for?
Thanks for letting me share.
Cindy - I am so very sorry for you losses Cindy! How horrible. I cannot believe it took twice for the Doctors to diagnosis you. I can't imagine the pain your are enduring and will feel for the years to come.

Hello, I am Stacey I am 31 and DH is almost 33 and here is our story...
We have been TTC #1 since March of 2008. We got married in March of 2008 but wanted to have kids right away. I got PG in April of 2008. Didn't really have much trouble, was noticing some brown spotting, and called and the docs said not to worry. I went to Urgent Care because I thought I had a bladder infection and an US showed blighted ovum...I thought I would have been 10wks. I wanted to pass it naturally so I just took misoprotosol. I don't think it worked because it took 3 months for my HCG levels to drop to 0. So from May to August, no AF. Then I bled for 21 days. I was supposed to wait 2 normal cycles to TTC, so that wasn't until January of 09. Got PG in 3/09. Again no trouble, was anxious so I wanted to get HCG checked. Did not double but was rising. US showed fetus was 6w3d but no heartbeat. I scheduled an DNC however passed it naturally the night before the surgery. Got BFP on Thanksgiving Day. Was so excited...lost all symptoms at 7 weeks. Started to freak out HCG again went up but not doubled. US showed gestational sac and yolk sac but no fetal pole. Took a different kind of medication, not sure what it was, but it worked better than the miso, but it was alot more painful. That all happened in Jan 2010. The Dr wanted me to wait for one more US to see if we were off on our dates...so even though I knew in my heart at 6 weeks something was wrong, I had to wait until week 11 to get the confirmation.
So now after 3 losses I finally got a referral to a RE and testing has been done. DH has a high percentage of fragmented sperm and my APLA came back borderline so I need to go on baby aspirin now, and injections while pregnant.
I tried the fertililty issues board, but I didn't like it. I don't think I have been acknowledged by anyone that is not my BBC friend. I hope I too can find comfort and support here, and to be able to provide that for someone too.
hi stacey, i'm glad you found us. i'm sorry you've had to go through this long, difficult road. we also started TTC#1 back in early 2008 and it's hard to believe that fastforward 2 years and 4 m/c's later, here we are still trying. i know you'll find this a very supportive group like i have. all of us have lost more than one little one during this climb so it feels like there's always someone that understands what you're going through at the moment and at the same time has a different eye-opening perspective. i've grown to really care for and appreciate the friends i've made here. please free to join us and chime in on our little monthly "general discussion" posts. it's just our little way to keep in touch with the goings on with everyone.
so have you seen your RE yet? what did he/she say?
After 4 losses (5/08, 11/08, 1/09, 5/09), welcomed DS 2/21/11 and DS 8/13/12 and loving every moment...
Hi ladies. I am new to this group. My husband and I got married in July 2007 and have been TTC since then. My husband has severe male factor infertility due to a spinal cord injury. We have done 4 rounds of ICSI - the first resulted in a miscarriage, the second and third resulted in a BFN and the fourth resulted in our baby boy who was born sleeping on August 22, 2010 at 38 weeks and 3 days.
We don't have any answers and feel like we are running out of time to have a baby of our own. In the midst of dealing with our grief over losing our son, we are contemplating going back to the fertility clinic to try again.
I am so hoping that one day we will be able to bring home a healthy, living baby.

Missing my son, Ehlio - lost at 38 weeks, 3 days; Aug. 2010
Rainbow twins born April 2013
Hi, I i lost my son Benjamin at 31 weeks on may 1st. His EDD was July 4th. I cant believe it will be here so soon feels like i lost him yesterday. I have had a very bad day well i should say week but to day i have just broken down. Whats worse is our 2 yr anniversary is on the 9th. a negitive and a positive all in one but i thought we be celebrating with our son Benjamin.
So story goes i went in on a Thursday because of no movement and lack of movement for 3 days before but nurses kept telling me it was fine. I get told he is fine but i had polyhydroism hence why i could not feel him move but on the ultrasound it was plain as day he was not moving she had to keep pushing on him just to get his arm to move and once he moved it he like well there you go he is fine i knew differently and wish i had fought to stay.
That Monday following i go to my doctor for a follow up and knew it was gonna be bad in my heart.It turned out he had died. So i was sent to hospital to get it confirmed and induced after 41 hours in labour he finally came. He was so sweet 15 inch and 3 pounds. We named him Benjamin ray.
Married 7/9/11 - Benjamin Ray 5/1/2013 (31 weeks) EDD 7/4/2013, Roman 10/6/14

As of right now, I'm comfortable sharing that we are feeling drawn to homeschooling. There is so much I could say about this. We're in a unique position because we know what our schooling options will be for when we move. I will say upfront that Kurt was in public school, and I experienced public, private, and a year of homeschooling. So we come from every place possible when considering the options.
I'm in the process of researching and reading, and of course praying, about what we need to do. I will definitely share what I find as I feel comfortable and more confident with it. I really never thought I'd be interested in homeschooling. Honestly, I knew I might enjoy the time during the day that my kids are at school to get things done. However, when Evy was born, something happened in my heart, and I sensed the value in possibly learning at home. Spiritual and cultural issues aside, the practicality of it appeals to me. We desire to travel, and this will provide many teaching opportunities as well as allow us to travel during the school year. These are just a few of many things we're considering. What sold Kurt was looking at curriculum. I ordered some free catalogs just out of curiosity, and we were really inspired looking at them. Kurt was impressed that it's not just some random, mismatched thing that you teach (as if I could ever do something random and mismatched). Homeschooling allows you to tailor the education of your child as you see fit. Again, I will share so much more about this at a later time.
Finally, I want to make sure everyone knows that I do not believe homeschooling is for everyone! This is just something that, as of right now, seems to fit our needs the best. But we are always seeking God, and if He leads us to send our children to public or private school, we'll gladly and happily do that!
Will Kurt work at Southeast Hospital or St. Francis?
Kurt will be working at St. Francis Medical Center.

New study finds gains for students nationally, Washington ranked 26th in education
The Annie E. Casey Foundation has released it's 2012 KIDS COUNT Data Book: State Trends in Child Well-Being highlighting the state of childhood health and education in the U.S.
Nationally, students have made gains in preschool enrollment, fourth grade reading, eight grade math, and high school graduation. Breaking it down on the state level, Washington saw gains and losses. The percentage of children not enrolled in preschool has gone down as well as the percentage of eight graders not proficient in math and the number of high school graduates not graduating on time. However, the percentage of fourth graders not proficient in reading has gone up.

I'm just a composer. My concern is to find a way beyond the categories, a path that gives me freedom. I am not looking for exclusive 'style', but after a contemporary personal language.
I have developed a concept based on free variation, free tonality and degrees of freedom. Included is the opportunity to work with specially created scales. This concept offers me access to different kinds of music ... to go beyond.
My finished projects are provided as albums at Bandcamp. "Cocktail Spezial" is one of them. It's a synth- and club-album. I don't know how to use the "BandcampAlbum"- button. I can't find any number to paste. Sorry! Here is the link:

Sydney and I were having pedicures when the woman in the next pedicure bath next to us over heard me talking and asked how can buttercream be frosted smooth. At first I was confused, but Sydney knew exactly what she was asking. After about 20 minutes of listening to her explain that she becomes frustrated when frosting a buttercream cake so much so that it bring her to tears and she has no idea what to do. She has never tried an Italian buttercream, she usually buys store bought.
As I was explaining a few tricks Sydney thought it would be helpful to write our Italian buttercream recipe and share some secrets we have learned to achieve a smooth and creamy buttercream.
Italian Buttercream:
- 180 grams/ 5 egg whites (large)
- Pinch of salt
- 200grams/ 1-cup super fine sugar
- 10 grams/ 1-tablespoon superfine sugar (for whipping egg whites)
- 59 grams/ ¼-cup cold water
- 1-vanilla pod skin
- 341- 242grams/ 1 1/2 -cups to 2 cups unsalted butter
Prepare your mise en place.
Cut the butter into tablespoon-sized pieces and set aside in a medium bowl.
In a heavy bottom saucepan over medium-high heat add water, sugar, and vanilla skin into the middle of the water and swirl till combined. Bring the sugar syrup to a boil and continue to heat till the syrup reaches 160ºC/240ºF (If you don't save the skins to your vanilla pods, add 1-teaspoon of vanilla extract at the end).
Separate the egg whites into the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the wire whip attachment. On medium speed add salt to the egg whites beat till soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining sugar to the egg whites, continue to beat on medium speed till stiff peaks begin to form. Carefully with the mixer running pour the hot syrup, in a steady stream, onto the cloud of egg whites. Raise the mixer speed to high and beat till stiff and glossy.
Once the meringue has cooled, turn the mixer off replace the whisk attachment to the paddle attachment , reduce the mixer speed to medium-low begin adding the butter 1 tablespoon at a time, allow each butter addition to amalgamate. At this point the buttercream may looked curdled, don't panic it will become smooth. Increase the speed to medium-high until the butter is completely combined, about 2 to 3 minutes, or until beautiful butter forms. Reduce the speed to medium-low, add vanilla extract. Reduce the machine to the lowest speed for 5 minutes to insure all air bubbles have been eliminated.
Frosting the Cake:
- 1-cake
- 1-recipe for Italain buttercream
- 8-inch off-set spatula
- 8-inch metal spatula
- 12-inch metal spatula (you can also use an off-set spatula)
- straight bench scraper
- Cake turn table
Prepare your mise en place of the icing equipment.
Cut the cake or cakes in half. Pipe a dam to prevent the filling of choice from seeping out, lay the second half of the cake evenly on top. (I find using a large rimless cookie spatula works best). Using a medium ice cream scoop place 2 scoops (approximately 6-Tablespoons) for an 8-inch round 3 to 4 layered cake, using the off-set spatula push the icing down and out toward the sides of the cake. I find it easier to push the frosting towards the left as I turn the cake turn table clockwise, this is a personal preference, play around and find what works best for you. This layer is the crumb coat. The method is just to cover the cake lightly in order to keep crumbs from poking through the finished cake.
Once the crumb coat is applied and gently scraped it is time to add the final coat; generally for a 20 cm/ 8-inch cake an addition 3 cups of frosting is needed. Using the scooper add enough icing to finish the sides, don't worry about the top I promise it will be fine. Gently with the 8-inch off-set spatula push down and outward towards the sides, using a back and forth motion apply the icing. Now at this point the icing will look wavy and you might want to message me if my directions don't work. Take a deep breathe finish adding the icing. Step back grab the bench scraper with your right hand, lay the the bench scraper at a 25 degree angle on the side of the cake, begin scraping, lightly, to the left while turning the cake table counter clockwise with your left hand. Once the scraper has gone the entire circumference there should be at most 1-Tablespoon of icing on the scraper; the idea is to smooth the icing not remove the icing. * If you are left handed, please reverse method.
Look at the cake there should be an 1/4 inch high lip of icing higher than the cake. Take a 12-inch either off-set or straight metal spatula, lay the spatula at a 45 degree angle, scrape the lip toward the center of the cake. At this point the top of the cake will like a merry-go-round (4 sections), after many long hours trying to achieve a smooth top with the spatula alone, I have found using the bench scraper putting as little pressure as possible while turing the cake works amazingly.
**Pointers for success
- Have all your tools clean and ready.
- Fill a large bowl with hot water, for cleaning spatulas
- Have a clean towel, to dry the spatulas
- Breathe!!
- Make sure the cake is at room temperature
- Keep the buttercream bowl over ice, if your work area is warm
Remember to have fun and practice really does make perfect, except there really is no such thing as perfect!

Investigators have found the remains of a baby in an Arapahoe County landfill.
The Commerce City Police Department found the remains Wednesday afternoon at the Denver Arapahoe Disposal Site in Aurora.
Police had been searching the dump for about eight weeks, since 7-month-old Torrey Brown Jr. was reported missing.
Sharrieckia Page, 23, the boy's mother, is being held at the Adams County jail on charges of child abuse resulting in death.
Torrey Brown, the child's father, said police called him Thursday morning. "They called me and told me they found some remains, and that it's probably him," he said.
Brown had been bracing for the discovery of the body, but, "It's still shocking, and everyone is taking it hard."
Soon after the search for the missing baby was publicized, Page's cousin, LaShannon Younger, told The Denver Post she called police in late March and asked them to check on the child after having disturbing telephone conversations with Page.
Younger said Page told her she was having difficulties raising the infant. "She busted up and said: 'He's gone, he's gone. He's never coming back.' "
Brown said he visited Page's home the day before the baby was last seen.
"I brought my daughters over there," he said. "I got to spend some time with Torrey, he was perfectly fine, smiling and everything."
In April, Brown told The Post that Page made it difficult for him to be involved in the boy's life.
"Always calling me and saying I ruined her life, saying she wished she never had a baby by me," he said.
Brown said he offered to take the child but was denied.
The Colorado Department of Human Services has opened a child-fatality review in the case, indicating that the baby had contact with county child-welfare services before his death.
Brown said Thursday that Page has telephoned him from jail several times. He refused the calls.
"I told her: 'Don't ever call me again,' " he said. " I still feel that way."

1.) Is it legal? To make it, to ride it, but illegal to sell it commercially?
2.) Is it practical, economical, fun even? At least educational?
This try to be a shorter version of my too long original post.
I've decided to either buy a Carryme folder from the Pacific-cycles Taiwan
and to use it until it show sign of stress or it breaks under my too heavy body. And then make a stronger replica of it so I have something practical
to ride on. That bike is my main target. Most likely I will buy it if I find a dealer that sell to Sweden and it cost reasonly fair price for handling it through the Toll and such.
Here is the old very wordy version of my original post. OP
Background to my questions. Very old bikes at museum is out of biz so there is no bike shope
where you could buy it in.
You have to find someone who just happen to have one at home not realizing what
a Gem they own and buy that one or you could build a replica.
Is it legal to sell such a replica if one don't do it commercially but only to begging collectors?
To sell copies of bikes in production for sure is illegal and should be. A-bike is a known
But what about doing it yourself (DIY), if I do a replica of a bike I see on internet and there is no distributor
where I live and I have no passport so I fail to visit a country they distribute to.
Example would be the 17bicycle I linked to in the folded subforum.
The A-bike have a dealer in Sweden but the A-bike are too small for me I am 195 cm tall and weight 95KG. Has failed to go down to the 85 they see as max limit for the A-bike.
So I want to make a replica of it with with bigger wheels and stronger materials and other moddings.
Not to sell it, only for the practical reason that it would be rideable while the orginal isn't?
I also want to make a replica of the Carryme made by Pacific-cycles in Taiwan. Hard to find bike where I live.
No distributor in Sweden. That bike should be even easier to make a replica of.
Any kind and thoughtful feedback and comment would be most highly appreciated.
I use a homegrown verbose English barely learn autodidact by reading American mags.

STANFORD, Calif. — When Charles Babbage prototyped the first computing machine in the 19th century, he imagined using mechanical gears and latches to control information. ENIAC, the first modern computer developed in the 1940s, used vacuum tubes and electricity. Today, computers use transistors made from highly engineered semiconducting materials to carry out their logical operations.
And now a team of Stanford University bioengineers has taken computing beyond mechanics and electronics into the living realm of biology. In a paper to be published March 28 in Science, the team details a biological transistor made from genetic material — DNA and RNA — in place of gears or electrons. The team calls its biological transistor the "transcriptor."
"Transcriptors are the key component behind amplifying genetic logic — akin to the transistor and electronics," said Jerome Bonnet, PhD, a postdoctoral scholar in bioengineering and the paper's lead author.
The creation of the transcriptor allows engineers to compute inside living cells to record, for instance, when cells have been exposed to certain external stimuli or environmental factors, or even to turn on and off cell reproduction as needed.
"Biological computers can be used to study and reprogram living systems, monitor environments and improve cellular therapeutics," said Drew Endy, PhD, assistant professor of bioengineering and the paper's senior author.
The biological computer
In electronics, a transistor controls the flow of electrons along a circuit. Similarly, in biologics, a transcriptor controls the flow of a specific protein, RNA polymerase, as it travels along a strand of DNA.
"We have repurposed a group of natural proteins, called integrases, to realize digital control over the flow of RNA polymerase along DNA, which in turn allowed us to engineer amplifying genetic logic," said Endy.
Using transcriptors, the team has created what are known in electrical engineering as logic gates that can derive true-false answers to virtually any biochemical question that might be posed within a cell.
They refer to their transcriptor-based logic gates as "Boolean Integrase Logic," or "BIL gates" for short.
Transcriptor-based gates alone do not constitute a computer, but they are the third and final component of a biological computer that could operate within individual living cells.
Despite their outward differences, all modern computers, from ENIAC to Apple, share three basic functions: storing, transmitting and performing logical operations on information.
Last year, Endy and his team made news in delivering the other two core components of a fully functional genetic computer. The first was a type of rewritable digital data storage within DNA. They also developed a mechanism for transmitting genetic information from cell to cell, a sort of biological Internet.
It all adds up to creating a computer inside a living cell.
Boole's gold
Digital logic is often referred to as "Boolean logic," after George Boole, the mathematician who proposed the system in 1854. Today, Boolean logic typically takes the form of 1s and 0s within a computer. Answer true, gate open; answer false, gate closed. Open. Closed. On. Off. 1. 0. It's that basic. But it turns out that with just these simple tools and ways of thinking you can accomplish quite a lot.
"AND" and "OR" are just two of the most basic Boolean logic gates. An "AND" gate, for instance, is "true" when both of its inputs are true — when "a" and "b" are true. An "OR" gate, on the other hand, is true when either or both of its inputs are true.
In a biological setting, the possibilities for logic are as limitless as in electronics, Bonnet explained. "You could test whether a given cell had been exposed to any number of external stimuli — the presence of glucose and caffeine, for instance. BIL gates would allow you to make that determination and to store that information so you could easily identify those which had been exposed and which had not," he said.
By the same token, you could tell the cell to start or stop reproducing if certain factors were present. And, by coupling BIL gates with the team's biological Internet, it is possible to communicate genetic information from cell to cell to orchestrate the behavior of a group of cells.
"The potential applications are limited only by the imagination of the researcher," said co-author Monica Ortiz, a PhD candidate in bioengineering who demonstrated autonomous cell-to-cell communication of DNA encoding various BIL gates.
Building a transcriptor
To create transcriptors and logic gates, the team used carefully calibrated combinations of enzymes — the integrases mentioned earlier — that control the flow of RNA polymerase along strands of DNA. If this were electronics, DNA is the wire and RNA polymerase is the electron.
"The choice of enzymes is important," Bonnet said. "We have been careful to select enzymes that function in bacteria, fungi, plants and animals, so that bio-computers can be engineered within a variety of organisms."
On the technical side, the transcriptor achieves a key similarity between the biological transistor and its semiconducting cousin: signal amplification.
With transcriptors, a very small change in the expression of an integrase can create a very large change in the expression of any two other genes.
To understand the importance of amplification, consider that the transistor was first conceived as a way to replace expensive, inefficient and unreliable vacuum tubes in the amplification of telephone signals for transcontinental phone calls. Electrical signals traveling along wires get weaker the farther they travel, but if you put an amplifier every so often along the way, you can relay the signal across a great distance. The same would hold in biological systems as signals get transmitted among a group of cells.
"It is a concept similar to transistor radios," said Pakpoom Subsoontorn, a PhD candidate in bioengineering and co-author of the study who developed theoretical models to predict the behavior of BIL gates. "Relatively weak radio waves traveling through the air can get amplified into sound."
Public-domain biotechnology
To bring the age of the biological computer to a much speedier reality, Endy and his team have contributed all of BIL gates to the public domain so that others can immediately harness and improve upon the tools.
"Most of biotechnology has not yet been imagined, let alone made true. By freely sharing important basic tools everyone can work better together," Bonnet said.
OK, this is what I've been waiting for ALL MY LIFE.
Organic computer bring to life all the Scifi I've ever read.
It also opens up every great idea that's ever been had in bio-engineering, man-machine interfacing, virtual reality.
Damn but I won't live long enough to see it happen. Remember the transistor took over 45yrs from start to home computer. I'll get to see so little. DAMN
>>>>>Damn but I won't live long enough to see it happen. Remember the transistor took over 45yrs from start to home computer.
Yeah you will. Yes, the transistor took 45 years, but knowledge acquisition is exponential. Also, these guys have apparently released the data into the public domain - where anyone can work on it.
The next 10 years will be... interesting (in the Chinese sense, I fear).
It's a new ball game.
On the plus side, is this the magic bullet for disease? Could this allow the rebuilding of telemores? Immortality?
On the minus side, how long till it is weaponized by DARPA? How long until a terrorist can "explode" a transcriptor logic "bomb" in, say, a crowded train station and program 5,000 people to do... whatever?
New ball game.
My instincts say its first use will be drug testing and espionage
Add the catalyst of unrestrained Capitolism and this could become a horror. This technology, like nano, will remain unregulated, and I forsee a swarm of manufactured viruses turning us into drones. As my friend above said, fortunately we'll never see the end result - in my opinion not due to age (and I am 60) but because the climate will kill us all first.
Add the catalyst of unrestrained Statism and this could become a horror. This technology, like nano, will become totally secret and regulated, and I forsee a swarm of manufactured viruses turning us into drones.
My adjustment of your rant is just as if not more valid. Please compute the number of people killed by governments -vs- the number killed by "greedy Capitolism" [sic]
Perhaps the best thing that could come out of this new technology is that it could give you a new brain.
Ok, I thought this was an April Fools joke when I read BIL gates. Looks like it is actually a real discovery/invention/creation. Interesting.
Don't worry JFinnity, even if we were stupid enough to burn enough fossil fuel to "kill us all" that wouldn't happen for a couple hundred years yet.
As to biocomputing... I suspect development here will be MUCH faster than the transistor. As available energy and computing power increase so does the development speed of other technologies. Look at how far genetic sequencing has come in the short time since the human genome project. Biocomputing and gene synthesis will be in full scale use within twenty years or so.
Wrong link to the source! here is the right one : http://med.stanford.edu/ism/2013/march/bil-gates.html
Great article, with one caveat. The ABC was the first
modern computer. Atanasoff and Berry were the
pioneers we should honor and remember. Calling the ENIAC the
first modern computer dishonors them.

This St. Patrick's Day blog is coming in a little late, but it is here nevertheless. I spent my St. Paddy's Eve in Chicago, the city with the third largest percentage of people with Irish ancestry in the US (according to Wikipedia). I was in Chicago for a concert that was being put on my one of my favorite bands: Gaelic Storm.
This is the second year in a row that I've seen Gaelic Storm in Chicago on St. Paddy's Eve. In Wabash terms, it has now become a tradition. If I were to compare the two concerts (last year and this year), I would have to give the gold medal to last year, which you can read about here: http://goo.gl/OmNlU. This year, the opening act was cancelled, which put a considerable damper on the experience. We did get a small taste of the Chicago Pipe Band, just like last year, and they were fantastic. When the main act finally came out, they were wonderful. Gaelic Storm is the only band that I have seen live that sounds exactly like they do on their studio albums. I highly suggest checking them out/seeing them live if you enjoy them. It is a fun experience!
While I have no factual proof that I am of Irish decent (it's just the word in my family), I enjoy St. Patrick's Day. I am not a fan of the original meaning behind the day, the bringing of Christianity to Ireland by St. Paddy, I enjoy the more secular connotation that it has come to hold in the US. I just see it as a huge day of celebration, similar to Cinco de Mayo. While the day holds a deeper meaning, for many it is just an excuse to hang out with friends and drink. I am okay with this.
I hope that your St. Paddy's Day was safe and enjoyable!

The coaching arrangements of the great and the good have been the subject of much debate at the Australian Open. Andy Murray's partnership with Ivan Lendl started the new trend for celebrity coaches and under the old boy's tutelage, Muzza has won two majors and an Olympic medal. Mmm. There must be something in this.
Still, trying to fathom how Novak Djokovic and Boris Becker are going to work together has been altogether trickier. Can they work together? What can Boris teach Novak? Will Novak listen? How long will it last?
But when it comes to the Roger Federer-Stefan Edberg combo, we here at the Australian Open website have the inside scoop.
Edberg has barely been seen since he retired in 1996 as, by his own admission, he had had enough of the tennis world and wanted a break. And 18 years seems like a reasonable length of time for a vacation, so now he is back to help the Fed reclaim his former glories.
The slight flaw in this set-up is that Edberg has no coaching experience other than helping his son, Christopher, with a bit of court craft. Could he persuade Christopher to serve and volley? Er, no. So, the coaching didn't go that well then.
Still, Stefan is still the same charming, polite gent he always was – he has hardly changed a bit. And that, too, could be a bit of an issue. You see, our Stefan was not what you might call a demonstrative fellow. The stating of opinions was not really his style, and he spent most of his career perched on the fence in those immaculately-tailored shorts of his. As a coach, that may be something of a hindrance. As for his spending habits, they were always… well, shall we say, conservative? Keeping up with the absolutely minted Swiss GOAT may take some doing.
Anyway, in the name of hard-hitting, investigative journalism, we can bring you a fly-on-the-wall view of a Fedberg practice session. We paid our very own fly to go and spy on the two legends at work, and this is what he saw and heard.
Scene: a practice court at Melbourne Park. Roger Federer appears in RF hat, RF shirt, RF shorts, RF shoes and carrying an RF bag. Behind him is a blond bloke in a grey tee-shirt.
RF (for it is he): Come along Stefan; we need to make me perfect again. There is no time to waste.
SE: You are already quite good, I would say.
RF: I'll be the judge of that. And quite good is not good enough. Other people have been winning my Grand Slam trophies for the past couple of years and Mirka is not happy. I only have 17 and the odd number makes the arrangement on the mantelpiece look lopsided. Another three would fix it.
SE: I could lend you a few of mine, if you like…
RF: I was telling my many fans in the media how much I enjoyed our cosy dinners together, chatting about the old days and how it was in your time. I think we should go out again tonight and discuss how I am going to beat Blaz Kavcic. How should I tackle him?
SE: It's tough to say. You are paying tonight, right?
RF: What do you think I need to do to compete with these younger boys?
SE: Really, it's tough to say. Have you thought about getting younger?
RF: Don't be silly, Stefan. I have been 27 ever since I won my 15th slam at Wimbledon and broke Pete's record. Age has nothing to do with it. Do you think my forehand is still as beautiful as it always was?
SE: It's tough to say. But you might want to come to the net a bit more.
RF: I tried that against Lleyton in Brisbane and do you know what? He lobbed me. The cheek of it. No, I'm not serving and volleying.
SE: Those shirts of yours are really nice. Do you have any spares?
RF: Did you see where I put my phone?
SE: It's tough to say. What about the shirts?
RF: See my people on the way out. Now – about Kavcic.
SE: It's tough to say, but maybe if you move a little bit better and strike the ball a little bit better it might help.
RF: People will think I am trying to be like you…
SE: Not in those shorts. Where did you get them? They look like you are playing in your underwear. A Grand Slam champion needs a well-cut pair of shorts. Maybe that is what has been holding you back.
RF: Remind me again why I hired you?
SE: It's tough to say ...

City Guide : BaselStanding on the both sides of the upper Rhine, Basel is the most third populous and a highly cosmopolitan city of Switzerland. Basel located at the center of the north-western part of Switzerland is a border city situated in Dreiländereck, the triangle formed by the three countries of Switzerland, France and Germany. The city is the place for a high density of international corporations. Having the most dynamic economy of Switzerland, Basel becomes conspicuous with its knowledge-based pharmaceutical and chemical industry. It is a city of multi-faceted cityscape arising from the gorgeous Rhine.
Tourist AttractionsBasel boasts with its great range of cultural treasuries, places of interests and public places. In addition to its modern architectures and nostalgic fountains, the city is the heaven of innumerable high-class museums.
Munster Cathedral placed at the Münsterplatz Square is one of the fundamental features of the city. The Cathedral is remarkable with its red walls of sandystones and colorful roof tiles. The urban settlement of Basel started at this Cathedral Hill.
The terrace behind the cathedral is known as the Pfalz because the residence of the city's bishop was placed next to this place. The Pfalz meaning "palace" is glorious looking over the Rhine and offering the best views from the field where the borders of French, German and Swiss countries meet.
Having a height of 105 meters, Messeturm is the tallest inhabited structure of the city. The building has 31 storeys and is viewable from long distance.
On the Münsterhügel, the River Birsig, a tributary of the Rhine, flows into the Rhine via an underground channel. Here, Mittlere Brücke replacing the old bridge resides.
The City Fortifications
The remnants of the city fortifications constructed after the earthquake of 1356 are enchanting enough to make you trance by the city history. St. Alban fortifications, Froschenbollwerk and the three gates of the numerous gates of this term are the most dramatic parts among these remnants. These three gates are Spalentor, St. Albantor and St. Johanns-Tor. Celtic Wall (Keltenwall) placed at the Archaeological Park of Rittergasse are among the most significant fortifications. This city fortification was built by the Celtics in 40s B.C.
The City of High-Class Museums
Basel is famous for its museums of rich traditional collections. With its about forty diversified museums, the city has genuine and internationally popular museums. Kunstmuseum (Museum of Fine Arts) is the oldest art collection of the world.
