Fi'zi:k Dual Tape $0.00
Nothing makes a year-old bike look new like fresh bar tape. And sometimes the monochrome look isn't enough, which is why Fizik makes their ever-popular Microtex Handlebar Tape in a duo-color design. It's known as the Dual Handlebar Tape, and each roll has a dominant color (either black or white) with a thin border made from a secondary color. The secondary color has subtle Fizik logos embossed into it, along with stitching in the secondary color. "Stitching?" you might ask. Indeed, there's a double-stitched air cushion built into the Dual tape to provide added shock absorption, which works with the foam padding in the tape to kill off road vibration.
The Fizik Dual Tape comes with Black Fizik finishing tape, and Fizik-logoed bar end plugs. Available in numerous color combinations.

Black/Red stitching, Fizik logoing covered up
I just bought this tape for the same bike you have, funny. Can't wait, the white is terrible.
I just bought this tape for the same bike you have, funny. Can't wait, the white is terrible.
Absolutely no reason to have white tape, unless you love changing it all the damn time. How do you like your SLX01?
I swear by this tape
I don't like the mushy feel of some cushioned tape but this one is just right. It's not too hard and not too soft. I combine it with the fizik bar gel for the perfect amount of cushioning as my aluminum frame isn't always the best for dampening road vibration. It's also not overly bulky. Great grip from the tape. It's also very durable. I got over a year out of my first roll and the only reason I needed to replace that was because I was switching out the handlebars and housing.
...like Patrick, I too swear by this tape. Have it on every bike I own.
candy cane'd
Great looking Tape
Great bar tape. I really like the colored stitching in it. I wrapped it to hide the red edge so my bars didn't look like a candy cane. Overall I'm happy with it.
Awesome ride and touch
Best tape I've found so far in the couple years I have been a roadie. Excellent vibration dampening and looks awesome with the colored dual stitch. The paper on the adhesive backing is a pain to get started, be careful not to just pull or your libel to rip the adhesive right off with the paper.
Another great fi'zi:k product
Sexy looking and most importantly, very comfortable and shock absorbing. Great tape. You can't go wrong with this tape. Guaranteed to improve your ride.

How To Align A FenderWritten by on March 1, 2002 Perfecting The Gaps Can Be A Tedious Process, But Thats What Separates A Stunning Restoration From A Mere Paint Job
Any good bodyman will tell you that surface prep is at least as important as the paint itself. Cheap paint over crisp, straight body lines always looks better than nice paint over waves. Similarly, poor panel fit after the fact can ruin even the straightest panels and the nicest paint job.
Perfecting the gaps can be a tedious process, but thats what separates a stunning restoration from a mere paint job. The good news? The basic procedure wont cost you any more than a few bucks for shim packs. The not-so-good news? You may find that some panels require significant working time, aligning effort, or serious metalwork (i.e., cutting and welding) to look right. But chances are, if your car hasnt been seriously tweaked in the past, this step-by-step approach to aligning fenders will yield panel gaps so straight theyll look laser-cut.
We followed along as Hot Rod Haus owner Dave Cross worked his magic on a 70 Chevelle front clip. Keep in mind that this car is still in bodywork stages, and ideally, thats where yours should be when youre aligning its body panels. Fitting the panels before painting allows you to play with shims and work the metal into shape if necessary without worrying about damaging the new paint.
When everything fits the way it should, you tear it apart, paint it, and put it back together. Keeping track of the shims used at each location will make post-paint assembly a snap. Remember, fitting panels after theyre painted will invariably lead to chipped edges, mediocre fit, and loss of sanity, so save yourself some grief and pre-assemble that body using Crosss foolproof method.

You don't need any fancy equipment for basic fender alignment—just a good eye and lots of detail-oriented patience. Make sure that you have a variety of thick and thin shims on hand to dial in gaps. If your fender bolts are crusty or missing, resist using cheesy looking hardware store bolts. Instead, order a front-end fastener kit from a resto supplier. Most include factory-style washer bolts, an assortment of shims, and some of the weirder J-clips that hold everything together.On this Chevelle and similar GM A-body cars, five bolts secure the rear of each fender to the body shell. Shims can be placed between the fender and body at each of these locations. Shimming at location A will push the top of the fender outward horizontally. Adding shims at location B will raise the fender upward, and make the side profile (the fender's bulge) flatter. Similarly, shimming the two lower locations (D) lowers the fender's bottom edge and flattens the bulge. Playing with shims at location C changes the width of the fender-door gap, making it thinner (less shims) or wider (more shims). Now's a good time to make sure each door is aligned to the rear quarter-panel before you proceed.With all four wheels on the ground, Cross snugged every bolt (except at location C) to check the fender's overall fit. If your fender is seriously out of whack, you'll see it now. This fender fit pretty well on the first try, but the uneven body line transition between the fender and door meant we had some shimming work ahead of us.First dial in the height of the fender peak to match the height of the door. Cross adjusted the top of the fender to fit flush with the door by shimming location B; 0.100 inch of shims provided the proper height.The top of the fender sat too far inward relative to the door, which meant we needed some shimming at location A. The bolt is accessible with a 9/16-inch box-end wrench with the door open. Cross added 1/8 inch of shims, tightened the bolt, and closed the door to check fitment—perfect. Just don't close the door until the bolt is threaded in, as the bolt head may dent the door when it's close.With the top of the fender in check, Cross moved on to correct the side profile of the fender, which was bulging out slightly beyond the profile of the door. After loosening the two bolts at the bottom of the fender (location D), 3/16 inch of shims at each bolt location reduced the fender's bulge to match the door's profile.The fun begins! Shimming one area to perfection often sends another adjustment out of whack. In this case, shimming the fender bottom (location D) pulled the top of the fender a little too far inward. No problem—Cross loosened bolts A and B, carefully moved the fender outward, and inserted another 1/16-inch shim at location A. That's all it needed.Cross then proceeded to check the fender-to-door gap. Toward the top of the panels, the gap looked satisfactory, so he shimmed bolt C to take up the gap and snugged it down. However, there wasn't enough separation between the lower halves of the panels. Time for one of the tools of the trade—he used a body wedge to carefully widen the gap and tightened the rear bolt at location D when he was happy with the spacing.A crucial step is making sure the lower portion of the fender is aligned with the rocker panel. The rear has already been aligned flush with the rocker, but the front (behind the wheel) is bowed inward. Cross gently tugged out on the front corner and tightened the front bolt at location D when he was happy with the straightness.
If the fenders you're using aren't original to your car, this might be a familiar sight. Although everything else lines up, there's a gap at the rocker panel. Most body shops would call this good—but not on a high-caliber job from the Hot Rod Haus. For Cross, this means carefully measuring the gap, pulling the fender back off the car (first taking note of the shims used), and welding additional metal on the rocker panel to tighten the gap. That's something we'd certainly leave to the pros, and it reinforces the importance of pre-fitting panels before final bodywork and painting.Here's another reason why you should always pre-fit panels: The door profile on this Chevelle had a few high spots that kept it from lining up perfectly with the fender. Cross used a body spoon and a couple of well-placed hits with a body hammer to bring the door into shape. Virtually no additional filler was required.The upper body crease is a prominent feature on '70-'72 Chevelles. Translated, this means a misaligned crease looks really crappy, especially after fresh paint. We couldn't figure out why the body line didn't line up on this perfectly installed fender, but Cross suspected that block-sanding the door and fender together would line everything up.Sanding through a thin guide coat revealed the laser-straight body line. A half-hour of Cross's work (we'd probably have spent an hour or two at it) not including time spent extending the rocker panel resulted in a perfect-fitting fender. And even though the fenders will be painted off the car, we're guaranteed that reassembly will be a slam dunk.

Arabian Nights
Dramatic decor gives this theater more than a touch of elegance.
Often when homeowners go to a company like Audio Video Interiors (AVI) for a home theater and integration project, they want something different, something that will stand out from the rest of the house and provide a special entertainment experience.
The Aurora, Ohio, owner of this theater certainly got something special, and while the end result is stunning, it blends in rather than stands out against the home's existing aesthetic—right down to the barrel vaulted ceilings and architectural columns. Involved in the art and design staging field, the homeowner felt that design elements should be repeated throughout each room of a house to create an organic flow from one space to another. "He had some pretty specific requests," says AVI project manager Joe Calderaro. "He wanted it to be a room where people could flow easily in and out."
To create that "flow," AVI used elegant draperies rather than a door as the entryway to the theater. Inside, the theater seats eight guests, but an adjoining media room on the other side of the curtained entryway includes two flat-panel TVs and a surround-sound system, which are all connected through the Control4 home control system to the same media sources as the main theater components.

Media sources available to guests include a DirecTV receiver, Sony 400-disc Blu-ray player and Internet-based content from an AppleTV or Roku receiver. A Digital Projection iVision projector lights up the 123-inch Stewart Filmscreen display. Because the owner didn't want big speakers interfering with the decor of the room, AVI went with a perforated screen and mounted Triad Gold Monitor speakers behind it with Triad Silver OnWall surrounds and Triad Silver subwoofers for the theater's 7.2 speaker system.
Calderaro notes that the unusual shape of the room, with a curved back wall, open entryway and curved ceiling elements, created acoustical problems that needed to be dealt with. "There were issues, nulls and peaks, but Triad speakers are pretty friendly. We needed to do a little tweaking to the space when the room was nearly finished," he explains. "I know he (the owner) is very happy with the audio. He's also a musician and has a good ear for music."
Lighting also plays a key role in this room and is used as a way to play up the metallic finish on the ceiling and other decorative elements. When the accent lights are on, activated by a Control4 remote, the ceiling resembles a sunrise. Additional wall sconces complete the look. One button on the remote dims these decorative lights and brings up the picture for movie time.
Ease of use was another priority for this owner, as he'd struggled with complicated home theater systems in the past. The Control4 remote met his expectations, providing quick, easy access to all of his media sources, both in the theater room and in other entertainment locations throughout the house. EH
Sharing is Nice
One step, OK, maybe a few steps beyond the archway that leads out of the theater is a larger entertainment room where guests can relax on sofas and enjoy the main flat-panel TV or a second one mounted behind the curved bar. These ancillary entertainment setups can access the same content as the system in the main theater via a connection to a Control4 distribution system. This sharing of content comes in handy when the homeowner is hosting a party: Some guests can enjoy the big screen, while others can gather around the flat panels.

Women have a more uphill struggle than men when it comes to investing, according to Bruce Hagan, a certified financial planner in Tallahassee, Florida.
He says because women still make less than men for the same work, they have to work harder to save.
"A recent report indicated women who rise to management ranks in America earn an average of 81 cents for every dollar a male earns. Not fair but those are the stats," he said.
Hagan went on to say that women save less because most take time off to have children and raise a family, so they work, on average, 27 years compared to 40 for men.
However, women usually live longer than men, so what they save will have to last longer.
"Lastly, women tend to invest more conservatively, which in the long run, can be detrimental."
According to a study done by Laura Locker, if a woman saves 10% of her income each year for 35 years it's quite possible she would retire with about $260,000 less in retirement savings than a man with the same savings patterns. Unfortunately, her Social Security check would be lower too.
So, what can women do to make sure they have enough in the bank when they retire?
"Women need to start saving earlier and save more. In the years that a wife is not working and the husband is, make sure you're funding a spousal IRA for the wife. When you are working participate fully in a company sponsored retirement plan. Diversify your investments, don't put it all in c.d's."
Hagan also suggests having life insurance policies on both spouses, so if something unforeseen happens, the living spouse is covered. Also, Hagan advises men to choose the "joint and survivor" option for their pension not the single life option when facing retirement so that the man's wife will continue to receive pension payments if her husband passes away first.

FAMU is about to face one of its biggest money-making games of the year, without its biggest draw, the Marching 100.
The hazing death of Robert Champion at last year's Classic changed that.
Gary Champion says there's nothing like performing in the FAMU Marching 100 at the Florida Classic in Orlando.
"You always get overwhelmed with excitement. That's like the most exciting game because it's the Big Show, it's the Florida Classic." He says.
The sophomore saxophone player won't feel that excitement this year since the band is suspended for the entire academic year. The suspension was imposed after the hazing death of drum major Robert Champion after last year's Classic.
Gary Champion says told Eyewitness News that he knew Robert Champion, but, is unsure they are related. Gary says, "It's kind of unfortunate that we can't perform this year. But, considering everything that's happened..."
FAMU's Sports Information Director says the Florida Classic is the number one classic in the country. Administrators say it, and the Atlanta Classic make up about five percent of the university's budget.
That's largely why fans are urged to still come to the games.
FAMU Junior Willecia Stubbs isn't going to Orlando. She says, "It has nothing to do with that because I never went before. It's simply just because I could have more time here studying."
FAMU student Talonda Grant says, "I'm not going this year. I wish I was." She believes all those who can, should support the school. She says, "If you still support the school, that'll help the band be ready to come back on top. You just have to still have school spirit, even without the band."

Carlos Nine's style can't be classified. His comics are filled with strange and deformed characters, human shaped objects and gelatinous structures. After his studies in Fine Arts, he decided to become a professional painter and illustrator. He soon became an international acclaimed illustrator, whose work is published in Brazil, Mexico, the States and Europe. In 1988 he started making comics.
His first stories appeared in the Argentine magazine Fierro, the French Écho des Savanes and the Italian Il Griffo. His first albums are published in from the early 1990s in Spain ('Chronicas de la Pampa Vasca') and France ('Meurtres et Chatiments', 'Fantagas'). Strangely enough, the Argentine public had to wait for an album until 1996 ('Eko el Mago').
El Cachuso Rantifuso (Humi, 21/7/1983)
Three years later, his second album was published in Argentina, 'El Libro del Fantasma'. That same year, he publisher Sudamericana brought out 'Cuentos del Zorro', an album scripted by Gustavo Roldan.
For the French publisher Albin Michel, he created 'Le Canard Qui Amait les Poules' in 2000. In 2002 came 'Sol de Noche' in cooperation with Elsa Isabel Bornemann for Santillana USA Publishing Company, and the oblong album 'Oh Merde, Les Lapins' for Les Rêveurs de Runes. In 2003, he teamed up with Jorge Zentner and launched the series 'Pampa' for Dargaud. He also provided the illustrations for the 8th 'Donjon Monster' album by Joann Sfar and Lewis Trondheim.

Travel light with the camera that packs everything.
Packing HS System for stunning images in all situations, a wide-angle 14x optical zoom and Full HD movies, the PowerShot SX220 HS is a powerful combination of leading image quality and flexibility.
HS System excels in low light allowing you to capture the real atmosphere of the moment without the need for flash or a tripod. A high performance DIGIC 4 processor and high sensitivity image sensor give superior image quality in all situations.
A wide-angle lens with a huge 14x telephoto reach of up to 392mm* (*35mm equiv.) allows you to frame exactly the shot you want, whether shooting panoramic landscapes or zooming in on distant subjects. The optical Image Stabilizer provides a 4-stop benefit so you can shoot 4 shutter steps slower than would otherwise be necessary to achieve a blur-free shot.
High quality movies can now be recorded in Full HD 1080p format with stereo sound. The optical zoom can be used for filming while Dynamic IS reduces the effect of shake and movement while shooting on the move.
Images are easy to frame thanks to a large 7.5 cm (3.0") high resolution PureColor II G LCD. A tempered glass outer layer offers increased strength and excellent visibility in all lighting conditions.
Smart Auto is truly automatic - detecting up to 32 different shooting scenes so you can take great pictures in complete confidence, knowing that the camera will take care of everything, leaving you free to enjoy the moment.
Capture fast-paced action using the High-speed Burst mode or slow down movement using
Super Slow Motion Movie mode. Both modes provide dramatic and spectacular ways of recording fast-moving subjects.
Movie Digest captures up to 4-seconds of the action before a shot is taken, joining all the clips together from the same day into a single VGA movie to add to your collection of photos. The iFrame video format is a simple way to quickly import, edit and share video.
From semi-automatic Av and Tv modes to Full Manual the PowerShot SX220 HS gives you the choice to control one single aspect of the exposure or take complete control and be as creative as you want.
An optional waterproof case (WP-DC42) allows you to dive at depths down to 40m as well as protecting the camera from dust, dirt and damage.

Over the years I've experimented with all kinds of laminated tip brands, Moori, Hercules, Sniper, Tiger,Sting Ray,Talisman, and many others.
Today I have a lathe and all the equipment to do my own cue maintenace. I also do tips for a few locals.
I have a lot of fancy tips in stock and I can take my pick.
So, what I'm about to tell you may come as a surprise..but I prefer plain old LePro tips for my cues. Some people will see this as blasphemy, but to each his own.
I've heard about how LePro tips are unreliable and mushroom quickly, and how you only get a few tips out of a box that are any good. Well that's just not so.
I have a box of LePros from which I have installed 40 tips. I have not had any complaints, and since most of my customers are good friends, I know they would tell me if they weren't happy. They haven't had problems with miscuing, mushrooming, premature wear, rot, or any of that. Out of the forty tips, I only had to replace one bad one. And that was one I'd installed on my own cue. Not bad for a tip that costs 50 cents.
This brings me to the issue of price/value. A box of 50 LePros will run you about $24. Laminated tips will run you anywhere from $6.00 to $24.00 a piece.
I can do anything with a LePro that I could do with the best laminated brand tips. Draw? Yep. Follow? Yep. Stop/Stun? Yep. Spin? Yep? Kick? Yep. Bank? Yep.
Anything that can be done with a $24 cue tip can be done with a LePro. No tip is going to give you a stroke or give you skills you don't already have.
Now on the other hand, I'm not knocking those folks who like laminated tips. If they work for you, then by all means have at it.

Associate Professor, Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Women's Health (Maternal & Fetal Medicine)
Associate Professor, Department of Medicine (Endocrinology)
Dr. Einstein's primary research interests focus on the investigation of obesity, maternal molecular metabolism and, its impact on the fetus. Specifically, she is studying the role of adipose tissue, particularly visceral adipose tissue, and nutrient excess in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance in pregnancy and long-term effects of changes in maternal body composition. In addition, she has been funded to investigate the effects of abnormal intrauterine fetal growth on the genome-wide epigenetic profiles. Epigenetic regulation, which allows for the stable propagation of gene activation and inactivation, may serve as a biological memory of the intrauterine environment. This valuable investigation may ultimately lead to a better understanding of the mechanism of epigenetic changes in the setting of abnormal fetal growth and the implicit roles that such changes play in the development of adult-onset diseases, such as diabetes.

Good day to all!
Weve just recently deployed/migrated from an old postfix to Zimbra and went well, although we received some reports of a relatively high spam incidents from our users.
Browsing over the wiki and forums, we were able to reduce the said spam incidents and SA trainings seem sufficient.
Recalling our old mail system, we have low spam incidents, due to ASSP i guess.
On a test lab, I setup a similar setup.. Zimbra and ASSP on the same machine.
- changed Zimbras smtp to 125
- configured assp to listen to 25 and smtp destination to zimbras custom port (125)
Upon testing, we were able to received mails, although upon hitting reply.. weve got an smtp error.
What seems to be the problem with this setup?

Grand Banks 59 Aleutian RPBy Capt. Bill Pike
There's nothing half as exciting as being aboard a big, beautiful cruising boat in South Florida in the springtime with the sun coming up when it's still cold up north. You feel privileged, meteorologically speaking, every time the tropical breezes stir. Stepping up into the cockpit of a new Grand Banks 59 Aleutian RP (Raised Pilothouse) with test gear in hand, I caught a pungent whiff of the fine Cuban coffee they sell in nearby Miami's Marriott Biscayne. Somebody was already onboard.
"Caf Cubano?" grinned Grand Banks service manager Larry Crouch, pointing to a steaming cup he'd just put on the dinette table. Once the formalities had been dispatched, we jumped right into a juicy little discussion about Teak Decking Systems, or TDS, an outfit that installs traditional-looking teak decks without the traditional maintenance hassles that go with them. Our test boat's swim platform, Portuguese bridge, and wide walkways were paved with TDS decks. The stuff was virtually glowing in the low morning light.
Since our test boat had to be in Key Largo by early afternoon, plus star in a photo shoot along the way, we knocked off the confab after a bit, toodled aft along the wide port-side walkway, and entered the stand-up engine room via the watertight door just forward of the cockpit. While Crouch pulled dipsticks, I looked around.
What a layout! The 59's machinery spaces are divided into two parts. There's the engine room proper (with mains, blowers, air-conditioning condensers, and a standard, starboard-side, 20-kW Northern Lights genset) and a lazarette abaft it (with room for the optional 12-kW Northern Lights genset, optional 800-gpd Village Marine watermaker, Glendinning Cablemaster, workbench, battery chargers, Xantrex inverter, and steering gear). The division's eminently practical for two reasons. First, thanks to a thick, sound-insulated bulkhead (with Freeman watertight door) that separates the two areas, the secondary or "nighttime" genset in the lazarette can run without disturbing sleepers in the master, which is also isolated from sound by the forward firewall of the engine room. And second, relegating secondary and tertiary systems to the lazarette seriously simplifies the engine room. Certainly, some components outboard of our mains were crowded and tough to access, but all the major players (like the Groco sea-water strainers, the duplex Racors, etc.) were inboard, logically installed, and easy to get at from the central walkway.
By this time Crouch had completed his checks, and we were ready to shove off. The weather stayed gorgeous as we proceeded through Biscayne Bay. I ran the 59 from both upper and lower stations and was impressed with the easy reading of both dashboard layouts and the cushy adjustability of the Stidd helm chair in each spot. Visibility was unobstructed by bow rise from both helm chairs as well, thanks to a carefully positioned longitudinal center of gravity and reasonable running attitudes. The broad, hard-over turns I did were typical of a keel-accoutered inboard vessel except for one thing: The disconcerting tendency to lean outboard was only faintly discernable. That's a tribute to naval architect Jim Moran of Sparkman & Stephens, who nicely balanced the 59's keel dimensions to get both solid straight-away tracking and a comfy, straight-up orientation in turns.
Moran's modified-V running surface (with semicircular prop pockets) did a nice little balancing act, too. Average top speed was a rousing, un-trawlerish 32.1 mph in seas measuring one foot or less. But then, at close to hull speed (approximately 11.4 mph, or 10 knots), the 59 produced a .88-mpg running efficiency, a figure that generates a range of more than 1,000 miles. "Versatile boat," I noted to Crouch at one point, "what with speed and economy on the docket."
Getting situated at Key Largo's Ocean Reef Club at high noon went pretty slickly. We did a starboard-side tie-up that was both fast and facile thanks to big props, an excellent view of the stern through the saloon from the lower station, a Side-Power electric bow thruster, and, for effortless deck checking, optional Freeman wing doors in the wheelhouse. Once we got our lines tweaked, Crouch and I hit the last lick of the day: a tour of the 59's teaky, three-stateroom, three-head interior.
Elegance and practicality were the watchwords. On the lower deck, the 59's full-beam master offers a large island berth and an en suite head with separate shower stall. While the look is understated, the emphasis on stowage isn't—I counted 22 cabinets, drawers, and hanging lockers in the master alone. The forepeak VIP was darn near as sumptuous and, in between, the third stateroom/office, with nearby dayhead and stairwell, made for efficient traffic flow. The finish throughout seemed good, although I'm no fan of the plastic cabinetry latches. Stout? Presumably, but unworthy of a prestigious marque.
The 59's wheelhouse, galley/dinette area, and saloon occupy the main deck, and the ambiance here was slightly different from your Grand Banks of yore. Features like finely crafted joinery and teak-and-holly soles were familiar, but the big flush-fit windows and LCD TV powering out of the starboard credenza were new. And the overhead pass-through hatch between the galley and the flying bridge was cool!
Crouch and I finished up later that afternoon, and in keeping with the natural beauty that had highlighted the whole day, a couple of palm trees framed the test boat when I turned to take one last look. The vision was fetchingly traditional, of course, but a little deceiving.
Given her top-end sparkle, state-of-the-art design, and cruise-comfy, condo-esque layout, the Grand Banks 59 Aleutian RP is an absolutely modern trawler. In fact, given her trendy personality, you might even say she qualifies as New Age!

Holiday Festivities in Le Mars this Weekend
(Le Mars) -- When does the holiday season officially begin? Well in Le Mars it's this
weekend. This Saturday Pioneer Village will be opening, Cocoa and Carols will be enjoyed at
the Arts Center and the annual Children's Lighted Parade will be heading down Central
Parade organizer Stan Culley says that not only is the parade a great time for family and
friends, but serves as a memorial for a Le Mars man.
Listen to
The first children's parade was held in 1997, which happened to fall on the same evening as
Utesch's funeral. The parade was them named after him the following year.
The Lighted Children's Parade is made up of private entries, businesses, churches and service clubs and the only requirement to be in it is that you have lights on your float. You don't even have to sign up ahead of time.
Listen to
On a side note, Culley does want to make sure that any candy being given out during the
parade should be handed directly to kids and not thrown for safety reasons.
Historically the number of entries and spectators for the parade is directly related to the
weather, and with warm weather expected this weekend, Culley says it would be smart to get to
Central Avenue early to claim your spot.
Listen to
Saturday's sparkly spectacle steps off at 6pm at the intersection of 8th Street and Central
Ave, and heads down Central to 4th Street. Santa will of course be making an appearance on
one of the 13 animated floats in the line-up.
Beginning at 5pm and during the parade the Arts Center will be open with Cocoa and Carols
and Pioneer Village runs from 5pm to 8:30pm Saturday as well. Pioneer Village will also be
open Sunday night and the following weekend.
Stan Culley sums up this weekend in Le Mars very well...

Associated Press Release
DORAVILLE, Ga. (AP) -- Authorities say two men are accused of stealing $65,000 in frozen chicken wings from a cold storage business where they worked in Doraville, just north of Atlanta.
Police say 35-year-old Dewayne Patterson; and 26-year-old Renaldo Jackson are both charged with theft.
A report reports states that an Enterprise rental truck was pulled up to a bay door at the business, and the truck was then loaded with 10 pallets of Tyson frozen chicken wings. Managers at the business told police that Jackson used a forklift to load the wings while Patterson served as lookout.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the men were arrested Wednesday and released the same day on $2,950 bond. It wasn't known Monday whether they have attorneys.
Police said there was no word on the whereabouts of the wings.

I like Noelle a lot but for some reason, Noella is a very common name where I live in the french community. I never really liked Noella much but I do find Noelle prettier. Natalie is also very pretty. I never knew it was a Christmas name until I started googling Christmas names! I never would've knownMom to Mhairi Elizabeth (March 19, 2010) & Fiona Lilidh (Dec 21, 2012) Baby #3 Due March 2014

It's cheesey imo, but a cute kind of cheesey, I think people come to expect you to give your baby a christmasy name if it was born near Christmas.
Some suggestions:
Mary/Marie/Maria - if your religious, otherwise prob not
Virginia - same as above
Angel/Angela/Angelique/Angelina - same as above
Gabriella - same as above
Gloria - same as above
Claire/Clara- Nutcracker
Snow - too obvious?
Nicole - Saint Nick/Santa
Carol - too obvious?
Clarice - female reindeer in Rudolph
Natala - born at Christmas
Natalii - born at Christmas
Scarlet - red is a Christmas color
Jovie - from the movie Elf
Cindy - The Grinch

I love Clara from the nutcracker as I loooove ballet and Nutcracker is one of my faves. My husband didn't like Clara though. Clarice is cute after the Rudolph except that I also think Silence of the Lambs ahha Love Gabrielle..it's one of my top names if she's born really close to Christmas. Can't use Mary or any variation as my first daughter is already Mhairi (gaelic for Mary).Mom to Mhairi Elizabeth (March 19, 2010) & Fiona Lilidh (Dec 21, 2012) Baby #3 Due March 2014

WASHINGTON – The police are asking for help finding a man they say robbed a Germantown bank on Tuesday.
Montgomery County detectives say that someone came to the TD Bank at 19501 Frederick Rd. on Tuesday morning and gave a teller a note demanding money and implying that the man had a weapon. The man got an undisclosed amount of money.
The man is described as black; 5 feet, 11 inches to 6 feet, 1 inch tall; and about 200 pounds. He was wearing a disguise.
The police ask anyone with information to call 866-411-TIPS (8477) or leave their tip online at their website. There's a $10,000 reward and tipsters can remain anonymous.

Store History
- Founded: 2010
- Founded by: Nathalie and Jake Wiesner
- Headquarters: Brooklyn, NY
The Stand was founded in 2010 by visual artists, sister and brother Nathalie and Jake Wiesner. Enthralled by the potent magic that flavor has on people, with fruit sugar, and spice as our medium we strive to create both traditional and innovative flavors and products in the form of syrups, marmalades, preserves, conserves and garnishes.
Looking to swap out the cola for fresh sodas or spread something other than basic grape on your morning toast? Take your cocktails and concoctions to a whole new level with The Stand's inventive array of syrups, garnishes, and spreads.
I was introduced to the siblings behind The Stand at a local market in Boston. As a canner and a food swapper, I have tons of jars of this and bottles of that, but I couldn't resist their wares!
Their flavor combinations range from single origin (Meyer lemon) to who knew those work together (blood orange rose cardamom). Offerings vary with the seasons, but this crafty team is always coming up with new stuff.
Any host with the most knows presentation is prime. Serve some sparkling wine with a splash of hibiscus syrup or a cake topped with candied kumquats and your guests will be wowed. Why stop there? The Stand will cater your event or even do custom favors.

I was just curious, what are the dumbest things you have ever heard, in class or not? Just thought it would be funny to hear these.
Eyes closed, head first, can't lose.
I've been waiting for an opportunity to share this.
I once had a hair stylist tell me they have to take so much law at Capri regarding health standards and such that all hair stylists are only a few credits short of being lawyers. She was dead serious.
Dude at work kept talking about how he rented a move at red tube and how red tube is a steal if you don't have netflix. Took him awhile to realize he wasn't talking about red box.
Self-Proclaimed Smartest and Goodest Looking Poster on Cyclone Fanatic 4 years running*
*Fitzy not included
I was once at taco bell and the bill was like $6.26 so i gave the lady $11.26 and she asked me if I wanted her to use the change.
"Atlanta fans are the best fans. They really follow the teams when they're winning."
To be honest, the following was the stupidest thing I've ever heard but it lead to one of the funniest days of my life resulting in crying on the cyride because I was laughing so hard.
"What in the world is up with these women??? Many are the most incredible Slovic Goddesses I have ever seen!!! I've gone to the web-sites, spent $1000's and I've learned an aweful lot about the Country, their heritage, the 20:1 ratio of women to men in that Country (which explains the Mail Order Bride thing).
Has anybody ever had any success in any type of relationship with any of these girls? (Outside the language barrier) It really puzzles me how genuine the ladies are. I've learned how to spot frauds, and obtain passports for your lady (and child) if they have any. But the thing that puzzles me most is how in the heck do these women go from looking like a Supermodel in her 20's, to Madeleine Albright all in about 10 years! ((Personally, I wish there was a-way-around the "paying to e-mail them" thing)) I have met a ton of those girls on-line, and many are my on-line friends, but I can't afford to keep up correspondance. Oh and is it ever addictive! Just asking if anyone has any experience with them and their thoughts. Thanks."
in the History of Rock and Roll after we did the Beatles day...
"So your telling me Paul McCartney was in another band other than Wings?"
I never laughed so hard in my life.
The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come.
Not stupid, but funny. Going through the drive through in west Ames McDonald's around 10PM, apparently some of the workers weren't keeping the high standards of the night manager.
Night Manager: "Come on, guys! You need to be smarter than this!"
Drive-through cashier: "I work at McDonald's, how smart do you think I am?!"
You can spend a lot of time and money picking out the perfect floral bouquet for your date ... but you're probably better off checking if you have bad breath and taking the porn out of the glove compartment.
The moral: you gain more by not being stupid, than you do by being smart. Smart gets neutralized by other smart people. Stupid does not.

The Beatles are the worst band in history. Sorry off topic.... Had to vent their for a minute.
When introducing a VERY blonde girlfriend to a roommate named Reed...
"This is Reed" (he is reading a magazine at the time of introucion).
Girl, to Reed: "oh, do they call you that because you like to read a lot?"
Reed: "noooo...they call me Reed because its my name."

You either weren't born yet, or slept through the 80s.
I am by no means a Beatles Fan, but if you'd been talking, not typing, your post might have just been my contribution to this thread. Over rated, over hyped, sure, but worst in history?

Truth. I knew it was only a matter of time until a post in this thread would be qualified.
A very good friend of mine (DeEtte) and I were talking at her house one Sunday afternoon, mind you this is in Baton Rouge, LA, when her sister (Shelby) called up in a total panic...Here is how the conversation played out. What you are about to read is true. In her real life, Shelby is an attorney at law and a very good one but, in all reality, You just can't make this s**t up!
DeEtte: Hello?
Shelby: Hi, We need your help.
DeEtte: OK...what is it?
Shelby: Payton is in so much trouble...she has a project due tomorrow and we are really stuck. Have been working on it since Friday after school and cannot for the life of us figure this out.
DeEtte: OK, tell me the situation or problem and maybe I can help you out.
Shelby: Sure...Her project is in Geography and we cannot figure out if we live in North America or South America...
DeEtte: You've got to be kidding me - right? You do know that even though we live in the "South" we still live in North America?
Shelby: That was the confusing part. Glad you could help us out with this. She should get at least a C on this project since we are only now getting it wrapped up.
DeEtte: Good bye Shelby...Hope Payton gets a better grade than a C since I helped her out with this.
Shelby: Yes, she should. She has an aunt who is a genius...bye.
We laughed for about three hours on that one and still to this day bring it up when we talk on the phone. Shelby, however, refuses to talk to us about this and avoids the subject like the plague.
Cyclone fan since 1964 and proud of it!

64-bit Corel PaintShop Pro X6 now available
Corel has announced Paintshop Pro X6 'Ultimate', its PC-only image processing software which improves on the previous version of PSP X6 thanks to the addition of built-in automatic image correction by Athentech Imaging. The update to 64-bit architecture should result in better performance on modern operating systems, as well. Apparently, the new software was created after a research study indicated that 'more power, more speed and improved usability were the changes users most wanted to see in X6'. We hope the research team got rewarded handsomely for figuring that one out.
Press release:
New 64-Bit Corel® PaintShop® Pro X6 Delivers on Users' Top Request
Increased Performance, Refined UI and Improved Workflows Help Users
Create Their Best Photos Ever
Ottawa, ON – September 4, 2013 - Today Corel announced the availability of PaintShop® Pro X6 Ultimate. Thanks to the addition of 64-bit support, X6 is the most powerful version to date. Improvements in speed and performance, plus interface refinements and new quick selection tools help photographers achieve their best results – fast.
"PaintShop Pro X6 Ultimate is rooted in Corel's sincere desire to build a product that helps users create their best photos ever. The most effective way to achieve this was to go right to the source," said Rick Champagne, Senior Product Manager, Corel Photo & Video. "X6 was developed based on our extensive customer research. Our users told us they want 64-bit power, faster performance, an improved user interface, and continued availability of a perpetual license, so we delivered them. Now we not only offer the most robust feature set in the space, but also the professional power to back it."
Improvements in PaintShop Pro X6 Ultimate originate from the most extensive research study in the product's history. Corel researchers drew from a base of over 2.6 million PaintShop Pro users, learning that more power, more speed and improved usability were the changes users most wanted to see in X6.
New 64-Bit Power Drives Acceleration Application-Wide
The leap to 64-bit has dramatically accelerated key features application wide. Performance gains include:
- Superior performance: 64-bit dramatically improves the power of PaintShop Pro X6, delivering more performance, speed, and stability in users' favorite features. For example, when compared to X5, 64- bit PaintShop Pro X6 saw a 78% performance increase in cataloguing JPG images. For more information on performance gains please refer to page 17 of the Reviewer's Guide www.corel.com/newsroom/paintshoppro.
- New! Memory management: New memory management work opening and saving files and applying effects is accelerated in both 32- and 64-bit versions of X6. Both are included with every purchase.
- New! Open more and larger images faster: With X6 users can open larger files and more files - upward of 50 - with ease. This significantly improves performance in batch processing, multi-layer compositing work and HDR processing.
- Enhanced! Support for Adobe Photoshop plug-ins: PaintShop Pro X6 now supports many 64-bit Adobe Photoshop plug-ins in addition to Photoshop format (.psd) images and Photoshop format (.abr) brushes.
New Tools Improve on Workflow
New selection tools make traditionally tedious editing tasks a breeze allowing users to focus on the creative side of editing.
- New! Smart Selection Brush: This new brush enables the selection of objects based on a brushstroke. Users simply paint over an object to select it.
- New! Auto Selection tool: The new auto selection tool lets users enclose an image area in a bounding rectangle that automatically detects and snaps to the edge. It's quick and simple, accelerating common selection tasks.
Professional Level Plug-ins Add Additional Value to PaintShop Pro X6 Ultimate
Corel's flagship photo editor, PaintShop Pro X6 Ultimate also includes valuable photo editing extras worth over $200.
- Perfectly Clear: Available for the first time in PaintShop Pro Ultimate, the award-winning plug-in by Athentech Imaging, saves users time by delivering advanced, one-click image corrections based on 10 years of scientific research.
- FaceFilter3 Standard: A versatile photo retouching and beautifying toolkit by Reallusion, FaceFilter3 Standard helps users reveal the true beauty of their photos by providing scenario-based portrait editing and beautifying.
Also introducing Corel Photo Video Suite™ X6
Corel also today announced Corel Photo Video Suite X6, the comprehensive combination of PaintShop Pro X6 and VideoStudio® Pro X6, for photo and video editing in one complete package.
Pricing and Availability
PaintShop Pro X6 Ultimate can be purchased immediately as an electronic download (ESD) from www.corel.com/paintshopproultimate or from Corel's global resellers. North American suggested retail pricing (SRP) is $99.99 (USD and CDN). Upgrade pricing, for users of versions X3 and higher, is $79.99.

5 Books for the Ladies You LovePosted On: Dec 17, 2013 In: Gift Giving Guide, In the Spotlight
I'm not much for labeling books for Ladies or Dudes. In fact, my husband loved two of these five books quite a lot, and after 23 years of marriage, I can attest to his Dude-ish literary tastes. But the fact of the matter is that some books seem to appeal to women and I'm willing to bet you'll score a hit with ladies with one or more of these books.
How to Be a Woman by Caitlin Moran - For that sassy sister or sister–in-law who shares advice on all things womanly. The one you who knows all your embarrassing secrets. They'll fall in love with Caitlin Moran's honest and hilarious recounting of her journey to womanhood and the constant upkeep required in mind and spirit. This is a salty feminist manifesto for your friends who are too tired to read Shulamith Firestone and who love Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Protip: Have Kleenex handy – you'll laugh until you cry.
The Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldon - Does your best friend need a little romance in her life? An escape from dirty diapers or that horrid boss? Give her the gift of James Alexander Malcom Mackenzie Fraser. She will thank you for it. Epic historical fiction with a twist of fantasy and generous dollop of true love, as an English nurse from 1945 falls through standing stones to 1743 to confront the Jacobite uprising and the person of Jamie, the Highlander of your dreams. These books (seven in the series, soon to be eight) inspire a rabid fandom and will give your friend re-read material for the ages.
Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell - Do you remember that feeling of falling in love, where every aching second of holding someone's hand is an eternity? Every glance, song lyric, accidently shoulder rub could sustain or torture you for days? No? I didn't either, but it all came back to me when I read Eleanor and Park, and beautiful (and heartbreaking) tale of first love. Great dialogue and emotional pacing.
Longbourn by Jo Baker - Does your wife make you watch Pride and Prejudice at least once a year? Not the wimpy two hour version, but the entire BBC version with a dripping wet Colin Firth? Call off the hounds – the search for her gift is over. Many Pride and Prejudice sequels, updates and parodies have been written, but Loungourn stands out as an actual winner. Jo Baker's novel follows the life of the "downstairs" inhabitants of the Bennett estate, Mrs. Hill the Housekeeper and especial Sarah, one of the maids. Austen fans should love this book, but it could also stand alone.
The Color Purple by Alice Walker - Not a new book, but a gorgeous book about the strength of women, the limits of the human spirit and the pain and pleasure of the individual lives of women. Watching Celie and awaken to herself and claim her voice changed my life, so it always makes it onto my "what to read" list.

In December 2011, the Employment Initiative Program (EIP) unveiled Hero 2 Hired (H2H), a comprehensive employment program designed to address the unique needs of Reserve Component Service members. These are key components of the overall effort addressing the unemployment and underemployment faced by the men and women in the National Guard and Reserve. EIP has partnered with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Employment Center (https://www.ebenefits.va.gov/jobs) with a powerful job search site and online community that is 100 percent free for veterans, service members and employers. Within the VEC website, Service members are encouraged to visit the Job Seeker Section to search jobs, translate their military skills, and build a résumé. Service members can also research employment resources such as training and vocational resources, education and counseling and disability and assistive technology. For a tutorial video on how to use the VEC, please visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWfhI-eSoWk.
The Veterans Employment Center (https://www.ebenefits.va.gov/jobs) provides employers with the ability to post available jobs and for service members to post resumes and make a job connection. The high-touch approach comes through our H2H Employment Coordinators. Employment Coordinators provide quality career readiness assistance to National Guard and Reserve Service members preparing for their next civilian career (e.g., resume assistance, interviewing skills, etc.). Each State, Territory and the District of Columbia has an H2H Employment Coordinator assigned who can assist with the service member VEC enrollment and local employment resources. To find your supporting H2H Employment Coordinator, go to: http://h2h.jobs/coordinators.php.
As a job seeker, you have access to the following resources:
Other Resources: The VEC contains or links to a broad set of other informational resources designed to help you find meaningful career opportunities and take advantage of special government and partner programs, such as the new Department of Defense SkillBridge pilot program to promote civilian job training for transitioning Service members.

Where The Wild Things Are (2009)
Where The Wild Things Are Synopsis
Adventure. Innovative director Spike Jonze collaborates with celebrated author Maurice Sendak to bring one of the most beloved books of all time to the big screen in Where the Wild Things Are, a classic story about childhood and the places we go to figure out the world we live in. The film tells the story of Max, a rambunctious and sensitive boy who feels misunderstood at home and escapes to where the Wild Things are. Max lands on an island where he meets mysterious and strange creatures whose emotions are as wild and unpredictable as their actions. The Wild Things desperately long for a leader to guide them, just as Max longs for a kingdom to rule. When Max is crowned king, he promises to create a place where everyone will be happy. Max soon finds, though, that ruling his kingdom is not so easy and his relationships there prove to be more complicated than he originally thought.
What really got me hooked on Maurice Senak's classic book Where the Wild Things Are was Levar Burton. After he did an episode of 'Reading Rainbow' on it, I grabbed my Belton Public Library card and dragged my Mom out to the car. I had to have it! For a lot of kids, "Where the Wild Things Are" was and hopefully still is a special experience. Now it's being made into a movie, and though I'm no longer exactly in the story's target age bracket, it's hard not to be a little bit excited.

PHOTOS: Check out the 2012 regional finals of the Hooters International Swimsuit Pageant!
MIAMI, Florida (AP) - More than 1,500 participants of a monthlong python challenge have helped to capture 50 Burmese pythons in the Florida Everglades.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission updated the counts Tuesday for the "Python Challenge." The competition began January 12 and ends February 10.
See Also: Bradenton man takes part in python hunt
The invasive snakes killed in the Everglades are processed and logged by University of Florida researchers who examine each one hoping to learn more about the elusive species.
No one knows for sure how many pythons live in South Florida. Wildlife officials say eradicating pythons from the Everglades was never the goal of the challenge. Instead, they hoped to raise awareness about the snake's threat to native wildlife and the fragile Everglades ecosystem. The snake faces both state and federal bans.

OS ANGELES (AP) — Earlier today Southern Cal senior cornerback Josh Shaw was being hailed as a hero, but not for something done on the football field. Just hours later, Shaw's story may be unraveling into a not-so-heroic tale.
Shaw claimed he injured both ankles on Saturday after leaping from a second-story balcony to save his 7-year-old nephew from drowning. USC released the story in a press release that quoted Trojans head coach Steve Sarkisian as saying Shaw was a hero for "putting his personal safety aside."
Shaw told USC that he instinctively jumped from the balcony onto the concrete below and crawled to the pool, pulling his young nephew Carter to safety. However, USC has now stated that it is investigating Shaw's claims after receiving new information that could contradict his story.
During a press conference on Tuesday, Sarkisian said the university had "gotten a few phone calls" disputing Shaw's account of his injuries, and said USC is working to further vet the story.
Here is USC head @CoachSark updating the Josh Shaw story: http://t.co/JavJiY1cXD

Running into another good runner
HUNTINGTON - Two days after Marshall backed itself into a bowl-eligibility corner with a 38-31 loss to Alabama-Birmingham, players talked about what went wrong and what they needed to fix.
But in the case of failing to slow down UAB runner Darrin Reaves, they just tipped their hat. Reaves rushed for 184 yards, with 94 of those and his second touchdown coming in the fourth quarter.
On Monday, several defenders called Reaves the toughest back Marshall has faced to this point.
"Kind of reminds me of my running back from Boston College [now at Temple], Montel Harris," said safety Dominick LeGrande. "That's what I thought when I watched him [on video] all week. I've got a lot of respect for that guy; he's going to be a great player."
"He ran extremely hard," said defensive tackle Marques Aiken. "Thick-legged guy, huge lower body. He didn't tip at all. When he sees it, he hits it and he hits it hard. He runs with a low center of gravity.
"I give him credit, regardless of whether we had 'fit' issues or not. He did a great job of carrying his team on his back."
Now, Marshall must turn its attention to another talented running back, Houston's Charles Sims, if indeed he plays. Sims missed the Cougars' 41-7 loss to Tulsa last week with an ankle injury, and failed to finish the previous two games.
Sims leads C-USA in rushing yardage per game, 106.1. But in playing just eight games, he ranks behind three runners in total rushing yardage - Southern Methodist's Zach Line (1,032), Reaves (928) and East Carolina's Vintavius Cooper (891).
With or without Sims, Houston (4-6, 3-3) takes on Marshall (4-6, 3-3) at Joan C. Edwards Stadium, with a noon kickoff Saturday. The loser falls out of bowl contention.
Quarterback Rakeem Cato has a suggestion for his teammates as the Herd tries to win its last two: Just have fun.
"That's one thing I've felt we've lacked all this year, just going out there and having fun," Cato said. "Everybody's playing uptight, everyone's listening to what's going on around us, not focusing on anything. Once we do that, go out there and have fun, we're going to be good."
Along those lines, he shared part of the formula on how the Herd's passing game finally clicked. He threw for 158 of his season-low 214 yards in the final 20 minutes.
He told his receivers this: I'll scramble a bit, you get open and I'll hit you.
"That's what they did, and the coaches called a couple of screen passes," Cato said. "After that, it was just all sandlot football."
In other words, he and his receivers had some fun.
After five punts at UAB (the block didn't count against him), Tyler Williams once more qualifies for inclusion in the NCAA rankings. At 45.51 yards per attempt, he ranks eighth.
The Ray Guy Award doesn't require 3.6 punts per game to be eligible, and Williams was named last Friday as one of 10 semifinalists. He signed a document Monday agreeing to go to the Dec. 6 ceremony if he becomes one of three finalists.
Now if he only could get his tackling technique down. He remains six tackles behind place-kicker Justin Haig (6-0) after failing to bring down UAB's Jackie Williams on that game-turning 79-yard TD return.
"That was my fault," Williams said. "I dove at his leg, hit him in the knee and thought, 'Oh, he'll fall down, I'm not going to have to crush him.' I guess I hit him just enough that I bumped over to the side and he just shrugged it off like nothing."
Right guard John Bruhin attended player interviews Monday and stood for those interviews, so that's a good sign for the sixth-year senior. His balky ankle cost him the Memphis and UAB games.
He said he rolled the ankle in the Herd's loss to Central Florida on Oct. 27, and then rolled it again the next Tuesday. He feels confident that he'll be ready to reclaim his starting spot for his last game at Joan C. Edwards Stadium.
Bruhin points out that his ankle problems are a byproduct of his longstanding back issues.
"I actually have a 'drop foot,' from where I hurt my back," he said. "The ankle's been really weak since I've been here. If I step on anything wrong, it swells back up."
And finally, it was Aiken who blocked the 52-yard field goal try by UAB's Ty Law with just over 9 minutes left. LeGrande picked up the ball and returned it 35 yards before tiring out at the UAB 29.
Marshall settled for a field goal to cut the Blazers' lead to 31-24, but the Blazers responded with a long drive to all but put the game away.
It took some slow-motion replays to see who blocked the ball, but Aiken had no doubt.
"When the ball snapped, [Brandon Sparrow and I] pushed [a blocker] back, a great push," Aiken said. "And I put my left hand up and the ball tore my hand apart, pretty much."
