Explanations for Congregational declension after the American Revolution generally focus either upon the inability of orthodox missionaries to adjust to republican culture, or upon the culture's rejection of orthodoxy. Both approaches to the problem are flawed. This study suggests that Congregational leaders adjusted to the democratization of American society in various ways, and embraced innovative means to evangelize their fellow citizens. Moreover, this study indicates that there was an openness to the message which Congregational evangelists proclaimed; when offered a choice between orthodoxy and populist insurgency, many frontier Americans found orthodoxy the more attractive alternative.
It is impossible to sustain the argument, advanced by William Warren Sweet and many others, that Congregational leaders were "more or less indifferent" to expansion into the frontier. Fueled by fervent millennial hopes, a profound sense of their covenant obligations, and a strong commitment to evangelism, post-revolutionary New Light Congregationalists broke with generations of orthodox tradition by creating dozens of missionary agencies. As we have seen, the Connecticut Missionary Society alone sent 148 evangelists into the new settlements during the first two decades of its existence. Many more were employed by smaller Congregational organizations such as the Berkshire Missionary Society, the Hampshire Missionary Society, the Massachusetts Missionary Society, the Vermont Missionary Society, and a host of other state and local agencies. Many of these missionaries regarded the "evangelical office" as a special calling, distinct from the traditional Congregational pastorate.
It is also impossible to sustain the argument that Congregational evan-

Mrs. Cranks has been attentively at the front of the peloton for a number of years now. Constantly asking when we will go back (we saw it in 2003) and which mountain finish we will set up for. She gets a GC for being the only girl I know who would repack hub bearings at midnight on a Saturday, and enjoy it, and a King of the Mountains for signing up for a triathalon this year. Never been competitive, but she says all she knows she learned from the TdF (drafting, teamwork, strategy).
A rainbow jersey, and a keeper.
News flash - watching the tape from today recounting all the French victories on Bastille day.
Mrs. Cranks: The French are going to renumber the month of July - every day will be the 14th.
Sorry to say my wife shown no interest at all. There are only a few slight sparks of attention during the Cheryl Crow interviews.
My 14 y.o. son does show a bit of promise though he is still way down in the amateur ranks. He does like to see the sprint finishes and was on the edge of his seat during the Hincapie win. He thinks its funny when riders crack on the mountain stages and of course likes the crashes.
Im afraid he will not be a pro contender unless someone comes up with a violent, bloody version of the TdF in an Xbox game. The riders will be able to pick up various weapons along the side of the road to use on other riders and spectators, find worm holes to cut the course, and ride across patches in the road to give them temporary turbo boosts. The team cars will have to be fitted with gatlon guns and rocket launchers that can be shot at anything in the game as well as the ability to run over bikers from an opposing team, and, of course, the spectators. They will also be able to run off the road and hit cows butchering them into large chunks of bloody, hunks of meat. The helicopters will have to be the Apache variety. Oh and the podium girls will have to have much larger attributes and be clad in skimpy bikinis.

Dantonio, O'Brien scout Huskers-Badgers
By Adam Rittenberg and Brian Bennett
Rather than the normal Friday Q&A, we decided to reach out to two coaches who faced both Big Ten championship game participants -- No. 12 Nebraska and Wisconsin -- earlier this season. Michigan State head coach Mark Dantonio and Penn State head coach Bill O'Brien were nice enough to oblige. Both Michigan State and Penn State beat Wisconsin and lost to Nebraska (both in somewhat controversial fashion). Michigan State rallied to beat Wisconsin
16-13 in overtime
Oct. 27 at Camp Randall Stadium, and fell to Nebraska
the following week in East Lansing. Penn State lost
at Nebraska on Nov. 10 and finished its season with a
24-21 overtime win
against Wisconsin last Saturday in Happy Valley.
Dantonio's Spartans played in last year's Big Ten championship game against Wisconsin and have had several exciting games against the Badgers in recent years.
Here's what Dantonio and O'Brien had to say about the title game participants.
On the challenges the two offenses present ...
Quarterback Taylor Martinez helped rally Nebraska past Wisconsin in September.
They're two different types of offenses. You have Nebraska, which is a no-huddle and a more running-spread type thing, and it incorporates option, zone read and different things. Wisconsin is more power-oriented, more pro-style-attack. Both of them play to their strengths. You have marquee players in [
Taylor] Martinez
from Nebraska, and then also
Montee Ball
and even
James White
with Wisconsin. And with Nebraska, you combine it with having [
Ameer] Abdullah
back there, he's an outstanding player as well, a powerful runner relative to his size.
Both teams are really good. Offensively, it comes down to, in my opinion, how well Wisconsin will be able to run the ball with Montee Ball. For the Nebraska offense, how well does Taylor Martinez play? Those two guys are the focal points of their offenses.
On the two defenses ...
Two very systematic approaches, but two different styles. Nebraska is a 4-3 and more man-conscious. Even when they're zone-conscious, they'll play a lot of man coverage with a downfield safety and different combinations. Wisconsin's going to be a little more zone-oriented. They will get in Cover 1 and man coverage, but you get a little more zone pressure out of Wisconsin than Nebraska. With Nebraska, it's a little more man pressure. You have two defensive coaches by trade [Wisconsin's Bret Bielema and Nebraska's Bo Pelini], and both have been very successful defensive coordinators. Both programs are built on toughness, and both have big-play ability. They have marquee defensive players with [
Chris] Borland
and [
Mike] Taylor
on Wisconsin, and then with Nebraska, 51 [
Will Compton
] and [
Eric] Martin
stand out, and their secondary is very, very good as well. But I think Wisconsin's secondary can play, too.
I believe Wisconsin has a very, very physical defense, and Nebraska on defense is also very physical and they do a very good job on third down. They disrupt the timing of the passing game. They hit your receivers at the line of scrimmage and do a really good job of that. And like I said, they make it really difficult for you on third down, and I think that's because they are a game-plan, third-down team. They don't just do what they did in previous weeks on third down; they're going to have something new for you. I think a lot of the credit goes to their players and to Bo Pelini for that.
On Wisconsin quarterback
Curt Phillips
(only Penn State faced him) ...
I thought he was a very poised player. Beaver Stadium is not the easiest place to play, and our front four is not the easiest to play against. But he kept his poise and played a good game and brought them back down the field for a tying touchdown. He knows their offense and is obviously a bright kid and a poised guy.
On which Wisconsin and Nebraska players Michigan State prepared the most for ...
Martinez, because it all goes through him, and we felt [wide receiver]
Kenny Bell
was excellent. We thought Nebraska really had as good a group of wide receivers as there are in the league. And we had a great deal of respect for Abdullah -- obviously for [
Rex] Burkhead
, but felt like he probably wasn't going to play against us. We saw Abdullah making a lot of plays. And then for Wisconsin, obviously it's Ball. They're on their third quarterback, which makes a difference, but I thought [Phillips] played pretty well against Ohio State. So Ball and the type of power-oriented attack they have, they get a lot of people to the point of attack with their runs. They create some different things with different formations. And White is another guy, and Gordon can make some plays, too. They have three very good running backs.
On what the game could come down to ...
When you look from afar, you see this league having a lot of parity. Any week, anybody can rise up and play. I know what Wisconsin's record is, and I know what Nebraska's record is, but you can throw out the records as far as I'm concerned. The game always comes down to who makes the least amount of mistakes. I looked at our game last year [against Wisconsin in the league championship] and how it flowed back and forth. Whoever can really regain momentum once they lose it will have an edge. If you can eliminate the big play and eliminate turnovers, or get the big play and eliminate turnovers, then you've got a great chance to win. I think it'll be a great football game.
Both teams are really good. Like every game, it could come down to special teams and a play in the kicking game. Any time you get into a championship game and have two good teams and two really, really good head football coaches, it's going to go right down to the wire.

May 6, 2016
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - The Panthers announced they've signed free agent wide receiver Jason Avant to a one-year contract.
Financial terms were not released Monday.
The 6-foot-2, 210-pound Avant spent his first eight seasons in the NFL with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Last season he started a career-high 13 games and had 38 receptions for 447 yards and two touchdowns, but was not re-signed. Those numbers were down from his previous three seasons in which Avant averaged 52 receptions and 633 yards receiving per year.
Coach Ron Rivera says in release that Avant "provides a versatile player at receiver and brings good size as well as experience to the position."
A fourth-round pick in 2006, Avant has played in 116 during his career with 297 catches for 3,646 yards and 12 TDs.
Previous story:
The Carolina Panthers have signed former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jason Avant to a one-year contract.
The 30-year old started 13 games for the Eagles this past season. He racked up 447 yards and two touchdowns.
The Panthers will have a lot of new faces at the receiver position in 2014. Steve Smith, Brandon Lafell and Ted Ginn Jr. are among the players not returning for the Panthers.

Publisher's Description
Reflections for Christians for dealing with money in a consumer-driven world
In this much-needed book Douglas Hicks looks at how Christian faith applies to the practices of economic life-spending, saving, giving especially as an alternative to a life of unbridled consumerism. This book offers reflections for people of faith and anyone who wants to connect their Monday through Saturday lives with their faith and live a more integrated way. It takes a look at how to realistically apply Christian principles in these especially perilous economic times.
- Explores how Christians can rethink their practices of faith as consumers, investors, and earners
- Offers reflections on an important Christian concept in a practical, lively, and engaging style
- Contains ideas for meeting the everyday pressures, questions, and anxieties of economic life as they connect with Christian faith
- A new volume in the Practices of Faith Series
The book is filled with the author's level-headed, thoughtful reflections on Christian practices of getting and spending.
Author Bio
Douglas A. Hicks is a writer and professor whose doctoral work at Harvard under noted theologian Ronald Thiemann and Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen combined religion, ethics, and economics. He teaches at the University of Richmond in Richmond, Virginia, and is a Presbyterian minister.
Editorial Reviews
Still, Hicks is clear that the lessons of economics do not always line up easily with the teachings of Jesus. The "Christian economic ethic we find in the Bible is focused primarily on an economy based on person-to-person relationships." So many of the things Jesus said ("Give to whoever asks" comes to mind) seem impractical in a global economy where half the population lives on less than $2 a day but most of us never spend significant time with people outside our economic class and education bracket.
What are we to do with the particular instructions from Moses and Jesus about how to handle our money? Hicks's answer is that the witness of scripture as a whole calls us to shift from "econocentrism" to a God-centered view of life that "acknowledges the importance of economic well-being without making it ultimate." By their very nature, markets do not believe that all people are created equal. They assume instead that every dollar is equal. But a God-centered perspective invites us to see that of God in everyone. The trick is somehow to harness the power of money and leverage our access in the global economy for the sake of people who are overlooked and excluded.
Hicks admits that this is not easy. In every sphere of our material lives, a shift is needed—from acquisition to development, from the pursuit of happiness to the pursuit of well-being, from breadwinning to stewardship, from wasting time to Sabbath delight. Hicks should be commended for getting practical at both the global and the household level. (The ONE Campaign is good, but so is microlending; simplicity matters, but so does gender justice.) Like healthy eating, economic faithfulness, by Hicks's account, is hard but doable. Every shift is movement in the right direction. We're on a journey. Best to celebrate progress, even if it comes in small steps.
—Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, The Christian Century, 5.4.10

Wondering if anybody on here has had experience with the Continental Contact tire. I was thinking about putting some 700x28 on my hybrid. Seems like a decent combination tire that's pretty slick, but still enough tread to handle the inevitable sand/water/wet leaves that are on roads/trails/etc.
Any help would be great.

Reviews for D & R Rescue Inc
My wife and I routinely viewed Petfinder in the hopes of finding a dog to replace our Maltese, Zoie, who had passed several months earlier. When we saw the picture of "Andy" in the D & R Rescue listing we decided to submit an application with the association. After several back and forth communications Karen informed us our adoption of "Andy" had been approved. Arrangements were made for us to travel to Terre Haute, IN, from our residence in Mid-Missouri. Karen was kind enough to meet with us on a day that suited us but not her. Upon our arrival Karen had already purchased a number of items for our new family member and prepared all the necessary paperwork. Thanks to Karen we were about to do everything necessary and return home at a decent hour.
After deciding to look into getting a small Shih Tzu mix puppy my family decided to adopt instead. I found Murphy (well Gizmo to D & R) on a Friday morning and immediately contacted Karen. What was so awesome about her is that she actually answered her phone, took time to talk with me and then when we switched to communicating via email was very responsive in a timely manner. I literally had our adoption approved that afternoon and picked him up 2 days later. The nominal fee charged is more than fair considering Murphy was completely up to date on all his vaccinations, exams, groomed, micro-chipped and came with a bag of goodies & free dog food. The process was easy & I cannot stress enough how refreshing it was to have someone who was easily accessible & didn't wait days to contact me (or not even do it which is what I found happened after several inquiries into other dogs up for adoption). She also followed up with us after a few days to see how things were going. If you're thinking of adopting a dog I highly recommend D & R Rescue!
I first contacted this organization after seeing one of their dogs on Petfinder. Karen responded to me very quickly but, unfortunately, because I live 4 hours away, I was unable to see the dog before it was adopted. When another small dog became available, Karen contacted me and let me know when I could come and see him. Let me back up a bit... she had me submit an application after I showed interest in the first dog. I was pleased with the detail the organization required from me - it showed they truly had the dog's well being at heart. After reviewing my application, she approved me within 24 hours. When we met in person, she spent sufficient time with me going over all of the paperwork and telling me everything she knew about the dog. I was extremely happy and grateful that they had made sure that the dog was neutered, checked over by the vet, vaccinated and groomed. She also supplied me with a leash, collar, toys, food and treats. This dog has been the sweetest, most well-behaved pet I have ever had and I love him to pieces! Even though this organization is 4 hours away from where I live, I would never hesitate to go to them again or recommend them. Karen has also followed up with me several times since I adopted Jack to see how things were going. I recommend D&R Rescue completely!
In December 2015 we were looking to add another Yorkie to our family. We found Karen and D&R Rescue via Perfinder. The application process was simple and Karen helped answer all of the questions we had about the process and the pup we were interested in. We made the trip from Wisconsin to Indiana to adopt Colby (formerly Ringo). Karen made the entire adoption hassle free and was incredibly professional. Colby is an amazing pup and I thank Karen and her team of fosters for taking such good care of him before he found his way to us. If you are looking to adopt, I fully endorse D&R and highly recommend them.
What can I say but I am blessed to have found Karen at D & R Rescue. I have adopted an amazing rottie and two other dogs a bassett and doxie. I have nothing but amazing things say about the rescue and the dogs that I have adopted as my fur babies. I would never think about getting a dogs anywhere else and highly recommend her and the rescue.
Max and Skip send kisses Karen!!
I would like to say how blessed we have been to have found D & R Rescue. We adopted our first rottie 12 years ago and were so pleased with the process and the assistance we had from Karen all of these years. We were adopted out Bassett Max in 1998 and they became best buddies. Our beloved Rottie Abigail was diagnosed with cancer we lost her this year and our hearts ached for ourselves and for our Bassett Max who missed her so much. When we decided to add on to our home we knew Karen was the only one we could trust to find the right match for us. The process is always very professional and we are now enjoying a new member to our family or a new baby as I like to say a doxi name Skip. I feel very lucky that I was able to find Karen and D & R Rescue she is a part of our family. We will always be grateful for everything she has done for our family and our babies We would recommend her highly.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
After losing my companion Samson when he was 15, I waited a few weeks, then plugged a search for small terriers into Adoptapet. A few days later came an email with a photo of a lovely mini Schnauzer called Auggie, who was being fostered by D&R Rescue. After some preliminary emails, I put in my application, and gratefully received word a few hours later that Auggie was mine. The next week brought clear and direct communication from Karen. I found out more about Auggie's back story, and when the time came to meet him, she helped me through paperwork and details. Bottom line: D&R saved this sweet dog, and without them, I would not now be enjoying the delight that he brings. The fact that they are also interested in him AFTER his adoption, and want to celebrate his new home, tells me a great deal about their high quality.
~Jeffrey Carter, Saint Louis (and yes, I drove three hours away just to collect this little guy!)
We recently adopted from this organization, and I could not have had a smoother transition. I dealt with Karen, she was fast at responding to my request, quickly got my application approved, and made time out of her day to meet me so I could pick up Ozzy. Even after I adopted him she was only an email away to answer all me questions about anything and everything. If I ever plan to adopt again, I will look at D & R Rescue first!
Highly recommend!
I was looking for a very specific type of dog since my older dog (a female jack russel) is very dog reactive. I saw a hound mix puppy on petfinder posted by D and R Rescue. The puppy was no longer available, but Karen found another male puppy that fit my requirements. I wasn't able to pick up Charlie until about 2 weeks after he and his littermates were ready to go, but Karen worked with my schedule and now I have 2 very happy and healthy dogs. It was a couple days before I felt comfortable leaving my terrier and the new puppy alone, but now they're inseparable.
I've recently adopted a little munchkin dog from Karen. He was being fostered close to my home near Indianapolis, so I never met Karen, but I can tell by the questions and interactions I had with her foster aide - Billie Jo - that they cared first about making sure he got into a loving, forever home. Then I was given all the medical they did for him - vaccines, neuter, hrtw test, worming, microchipping, plus care and resource information - in a nice file, and some food and treats to take home. They obviously wanted to get him off to a good start in case I forgot anything. And their adoption fee was not exorbitant -- many rescues would have charged a lot more for this cute, little guy. I have no hesitation giving Karen and her rescue group 5 stars, and I appreciate their dedication to their adoptees. They will never get this little guy back, but it's good to know that they are willing to take him if anything happens to me.
We had a great adoption process! We were given all the needed information about the dog and were offered a two week trial. After the two weeks if it wasn't working out we could return her for a full refund. We love her and couldn't handle the thought of giving her back. She is a great dog and love the fact that she came to us with everything we needed. She was up to date with all her shots. The process was great and easy.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Authorities believe a disagreement over a parking space led to two people being shot and wounded outside a Walmart in Tallahassee, Fla.
Police say officers responded to the shooting shortly after noon on Black Friday, one of the busiest shopping days of the year. A man and a woman — discovered at the store's outdoor garden center — were taken to a nearby hospital with wounds that were not considered life-threatening. They were expected to make a full recovery.

Derivatives - Trading Options
Listed Options
A listed option is one that trades on an exchange. The most important option exchanges for financial securities are the:
- Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), which trades in equity and index options and interest rates.
- Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), which trades mostly futures on interest rates, currency, equity and stock indices.
Standardized Option Features and Benefits
You need to remember that the asset underlying an option can be just about anything, and some of the more exotic derivatives will be covered later. For now, the discussion will be confined to stock options trading on the CBOE.
Listed stock options have the benefit of being standardized in terms of the following:
- number of shares of underlying common stock,
- delivery dates, and
- range of exercise prices.
- Standardization allows the exchange to operate efficiently as a secondary market for these options which were strictly a principals-only business until the 1970s.
- The secondary market provides greater liquidity for options in general and thus greater value for each of the instruments individually.
- Prices and volumes can be reported more accurately, so the market is transparent.
- Regulators hold some real oversight power, so all the players can be assured that trading in listed options is a reasonably fair game.
- Potential Consequences
- The CBOE is just a place to trade options, not a guarantor that all parties and counterparties will act honorably and play by the rules.
- As you might guess from the example above, the person who writes an option to sell a $36 stock at $25 might not be happy about it. He might try to renege.
- This is a risk that one would have to accept to do business in the options market.
- The CBOE is just a place to trade options, not a guarantor that all parties and counterparties will act honorably and play by the rules.
The Options Clearing Corporation (OCC)
If a writer breaches contract, the guarantor of all CBOE-traded options - the OCC - will step in. Organizationally independent of the exchange, yet virtually its conjoined twin, the OCC requires option sellers to post margin to guarantee that they will fulfill their contracts.
- Technically, the OCC is the issuer of all exchange-listed options, so the buyer is insulated from any malfeasance on the part of the seller.
- In fact, there is more insulation than that. The buyer and seller generally have brokers; these brokers generally work through clearing members who participate directly in trading at the exchange, and the clearing members are the ones who deal directly with the OCC.

How Tall? Several asked.
Several of you asked how tall Randy Travis is. Well, he is about my same height which is 5 ft. 11 inches. We have stood next to each other many times (I was his Minister in the church on Maui). Photos of the two of us standing next to each other are on www.amazon.com - use the searchline "storms of life, don givens." We are the same height but Randy is much smaller than me and much better looking!

Taming a Hydra-Headed Health Policy
Scott, Richard L., Newsweek
During the recent campaign season, a political observer noted that while politicians take credit for creating jobs, people, through their hard work and efforts to improve their lives, really create jobs and opportunity for their families and co-workers. In short, this insight, which lends itself to healthcare concerns, reminded me that if we expect to find answers to important public questions, we must rely on our own instincts and actions. Indeed, recent evidence sends positive signals about healthcare in the United States. In 1994, for the second straight year, healthcare spending growth decelerated. As Washington fought, private sector initiatives began to make real changes.
Nevertheless, even as this trend continues, serious debate must occur in order to guarantee quality, accessible, and compassionate care for all Americans. Today our healthcare system resembles a balloon. If squeezed in one area in order to control costs, it expands into another area to expand revenues. For example, while the rate of healthcare spending slows. the number of uninsured Americans has risen to more than 40 million. Inadequate access to primary and preventive care jeopardizes the health of many people in our communities. They often do not enter the system until they have a more serious health problem, which may have been avoided. Perhaps, they will seek basic health services in more expensive settings, such as hospital emergency rooms instead of primary-care clinics. Not only do these practices drive up medical costs; more importantly, they may not best serve the health of patients.
We must begin a national dialogue on healthcare issues with the goal of creating a more rational healthcare system that is fair to all Americans. Our discussions should bypass short-term fixes and consider long-term, comprehensive solutions. The only alternatives are not higher taxes, reduced benefits, or both. We cannot be encumbered by past practices or shackled by the belief that we need to restrict services or limit coverage to move forward. We should demand improved access for all Americans to quality care without squandering healthcare dollars. Government already spends more than $300 billion on Medicare and Medicaid as well as billions more in tax subsidies for healthcare services. Private insurance companies will pay nearly $300 billion in benefits this year.
Healthcare consumes 13.7% of our GNP. A fairer system would make better use of the money we now spend, and it would allow us to provide compassionate care to all Americans.
Real change would remove underlying incentives that unevenly distribute benefits. Our focus should be quality, fairness and a rational allocation of our current resources. Now, thanks to well-intentioned piecemeal policies developed over the past several decades, we must contend with a hydra-headed health policy that attempts to satisfy many different appetites. …

The Findlay store in particular showed the best in customer service. We were from out-of-town and decided to treat ourselves to a Sweet Baby Rays pizza at Vitos while in Findlay. However, we had no plates, napkins, etc. If we waited to take the pizza back to Toledo, it'd be cold. Overhearing our situation, the...view more Vitos employee produced all the items we needed so we could enjoy our hot pizza on the spot. Bravo!view less

Luckily ai receive benefits, ai was glad to bee taxed for wen ai did wurks. Which btw killed mai business, cuz teh taxboys knew ai wurked a lot ob expensib hours/days/weeks and wuz required to payincome/profit/VAT/etc taxes, which are due beefore all others, so dey nick yur munnies or if, in mai case you're bust, you get judged/jailed, and still owe ém afterwards... Ai let mahself go bancrupt in order to avoid all dat, which is a common practice, no rl drama. But as ai got "taxed" furst time for real, after dey let me go abouwt for 3 yrs as a startup, dey didn't have all receipts, as didn't ai mahself... Cuz most work in teh moozik-biz is "black", or at least "grey" cuz cheaper... So dey "guessed" me according to a few weeks for Warner (biiiig number/big hours) ai HAD a receipt of, dey figgurrd ai did dat stuff, like 250 days a year, times 3, got me a ticket ob 1.3 miljon euroskis! AKKK!!! Ai mebbe "raked" in a few tons but WHOA! :D

Derby Winner Tops Field of 9 for Middle Jewel of Triple Crown at Pimlico
BALTIMORE, 05-15-13– Kentucky Derby champion Orb was installed as the even-money morning-line favorite for Saturday's 138th running of the $1 million Preakness Stakes (G1) after post positions were drawn Wednesday at Pimlico Race Course.
(Nine 3-year-olds have been entered for the 138th Preakness Stakes: Orb, Departing, Goldencents, Govenor Charlie, Itsmyluckyday, Mylute, Oxbow, Titletown Five and Will Take Charge. The Preakness post position draw will be held at the International Pavilion in the Pimlico Infield at 6 p.m. Wednesday and will be broadcast live on HRTV.)
BALTIMORE, 5-15-13– Stuart Janney III and Phipps Stable's Orb got well acquainted with his new surroundings at Pimlico Race Course Wednesday morning. The Kentucky Derby (G1) winner, who arrived from Belmont Park on Monday and walked the shedrow of the Preakness Stakes Barn Tuesday, made his first appearance on the racetrack at approximately 6 a.m.
BALTIMORE, 05-14-13 – Five-time Preakness winner D. Wayne Lukas arrived at Pimlico Race Course with his three-horse contingent of Oxbow, Titletown Five and Will Take Charge at 4:55 p.m. Tuesday following a grueling 12 ½-hour van ride from Churchill Downs.
"They're better than I am probably. It's a long little trip." said the 77-year-old Hall of Fame trainer, who rode in one of the two vans that transported his three hopefuls for Saturday's Preakness Stakes and six other horses from Kentucky.
Lady Legends for the Cure IV presented by Wells Fargo highlights Black-Eyed Susan card
BALTIMORE, 5-14-13– Much has been said and written about the grueling demands the Kentucky Derby places on a horse so early in his 3-year-old season. Trainer Shug McGaughey understands how stern the rigors of a 1 ¼-mile race can be on a young horse, but he has no doubt Orb was physically up to the challenge during his Kentucky Derby victory on May 4.
BALTIMORE, 05-13-13– Kentucky Derby winner Orb arrived at Pimlico Race Course Monday, stepping off the van that transported him from Belmont Park shortly after 3 p.m. to continue his preparation for Saturday's 138th running of the Preakness Stakes (G1).
Stuart Janney III and Phipps Stable's homebred 3-year-old colt hungrily grazed on grass for 40 minutes before being bedded down in Stall 40, the stall annually reserved for the Kentucky Derby (G1) winner.
Xpressbet Jockey Challenge to feature 'Battle of the Sexes'
BALTIMORE, 05-13-13---Both pride and purses will be on the line for eight male and female riders in the inaugural $34,000 Xpressbet Jockey Challenge on Friday at Pimlico Race Course.
Past winners Javier Castellano, Rosie Napravnik and Emma-Jayne Wilson join locally based riders Kristina McManigell and Forest Boyce and are among the participants in Pimlico's first riding competition to combine some of the country's top male and female jockeys in head-to-head competition.
BALTIMORE, 05-13-13– Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Orb made a strong impression at Belmont Park Monday morning during a four-furlong tune-up for Saturday's 138th Preakness Stakes (G1) at Pimlico Race Course.
"I thought it was nothing short of magnificent," trainer Shug McGaughey said after Orb made his sharp workout under exercise rider Jenn Patterson look effortless.
BALTIMORE, 05-12-13---When the field for Friday's $300,000 Pimlico Special (G3) appeared to come up short, trainer Doug O'Neill considered two options: to enter both Richard's Kid and Handsome Mike or place the latter in a different spot.
Maryland-bred, based Walkwithapurpose looks to rebound in 89th renewal of Grade 2, 3-year-old filly feature
BALTIMORE, 05-12-13---Five weeks after a disappointing loss in her graded stakes debut, Walkwithapurpose returns to more familiar surroundings in Friday's $500,000 Black-Eyed Susan (G2) at Pimlico Race Course.
Foaled at Sagamore Farm in Glyndon, Md., a half-hour's drive from Pimlico, Walkwithapurpose will take on eight challengers in the 1 1/8-mile Black-Eyed Susan, led by Grade 1 winner and 9-5 program favorite Emollient.

Gourmet trips
Most recently, Les Touilleurs, along with our partners, have extended the concept of the workshop to include gourmet trips. The first trip, to Bretagne in France, took eight visitors to see landmarks, attend cooking lessons from renowned French chefs, and dine in fine restaurants. The second trip was a long weekend in New York for a larger group of twenty. This time the itinerary was designed with the help of Montreal's most famous pastry chef Patrice Demers, with whom clients had the opportunity to visit current highlights of New York's gourmet scene. The third trip was in Chicago with the chef Marc-André Jetté. Each trip is done with a small group, bringing a sentiment of exclusivity. Our partners are currently working on new destinations.
Next trip- Vietnam
In collaboration with Esprit d'Aventure, we are proud to announce our next gourmet trip in Vietnam for a second year in a row. We will travel with the chef Diep Le who will make us discover her beloved country, the custums but mostly the vietnamies gastronomy.
Upload the Gourmet trip in Vietnam 2016

Don't you like going to parks? Personally, I LOVE going to parks since I was a little girl. And now is the perfect timing to have a tour around Amman Parks.
So, I decided to start visiting the most famous parks in Amman which I will be sharing with you in my post:
Enjoy visiting Parks in Amman! And If there is any interesting park that is worth mentioning, please don't hesitate to leave a comment and I will be more than happy to add it to this list!
1. Zahran Park
This park is one of my favorite parks in Amman. It is located in Zahran street between 4th circle and 3rd circle. It is a beautiful and a quite park where you can have a walk or sit on its benches. I used to go there when I was pregnant and stroll with my new born where he can sleep and I would sit there and relax or read something. It doesn't have any playing areas, no slides nor swings. But, there is a space if you'd like to bring bikes or scooters for your children. Small but nice and calm park. It's worth trying! It is open until 8:30 PM. No fees.

Starlight Instruments is proud to introduce the new Starlight Integrated Paracorr System (referred to as SIPS hereafter). The SIPS is an integrated focuser-mounted version of the TeleVue Paracorr Type 2. The SIPS combines Starlight Instruments finely crafted Feather Touch focuser and TeleVue's 1st class optics to make the ultimate coma corrector.
The advantages of the SIPS is once it is set-up, there is no need to fumble with locking screws, turning your flashlight on to check its position, etc. This saves time and hassle. Also, the assembly is more rigid and flexure is greatly reduced. The SIPS totally eliminates the need to re-adjust/calibrate when switching eyepieces. You will simply adjust the focus knobs of your Feather Touch focuser for viewing. Because of this, the SIPS will save you valuable observing time.

BOOK TOUR CHRONICLES - KANSAS CITY So I'm at the Smoke and Fire Fundraiser in Kansas City, and who should show up? Jason Day, that's who. In case you've been hibernating a few years, Jason is the dude who rocked the internet and barbecue worlds with a diabolical creation called "Bacon Explosion".

BOOK REVIEW: THE "MUST READ" MEMOIRS OF TWO YANKEES WHO MADE BBQ HISTORY I first met Andy Husbands and Chris Hart at a barbecue we staged for the crew of the USS Constitution in Boston.
