This back pack bag was great and made from strong material. I keep my flippers in the original hard plastic packaging, I know OCD behavior, but this bag held it all. I had the flippers, two snorkels and my face mask enclosed in its hard plastic case and still had some room for other small items. An overall great buy for the small cost.

I purchased the Ultra Dry Snorkel and intended to use the Snorkel Keeper to attache it to my face mask. It was not needed. The comfort of the purchased snorkel was great and the "keeper" will be my backup. The material is super soft and strong and will be great if needed in the future. A must for the prepared diver.

this snorkel was a "trust" buy. i read the reviews and did some homework and it paid off. i took this on a beach trip and was amazed at the performance. even though the beach had red flags out during my swims, the snorkel did not allow a single of water to enter the tube. it was slightly difficult to attach to my face mask but held firm and was very comfortable against my head.the "stock" mouth piece was extremely comfortable and swung down away from my face without that usual whipping action. i believe this snorkel will last a very long time due to the fine material from which it was constructed. sorry scuba dealer. a great value for the cost. i am an occasional snorkeler and do not go on dive trips yet, but i am sure this will work well for recreational dives.

Brothers Show 2011Written by on November 17, 2011 The Longbeds Are Coming!
If there's one thing So Cal Ford and Chevy truck owners can agree on, it's that the Canyon RV Park located along the banks of the Santa Ana River is one of the state's best places to hold a truck show. Unlike parking lot events where folks have to create their own shade (or sweat trying), the 63-acre site is crammed with trees spreading a luscious canopy. The Chevy and GMC guys roll into the park a month after the Ford guys in Pickups Ltd. have put on the F-100 Western Nationals. On July 10, the folks at Brothers held the 13th annual show to thank its valued customers for their continued patronage. Chevrolet and GMC truck owners from all over California, and surrounding states, gathered in packs or drove individually to enjoy the festivities.
In addition to growing with 75 more entries this year, it was interesting to note an increased presence of long bed trucks that were restored, or customized to magazine ready quality. The reason might be it's getting harder, and harder to find good shortbed trucks, or maybe there's a new trend brewing. Either way it was good to see people are really stepping up to the plate with these trucks. Speaking of steps, there was also a large assortment of step sides ranging from good ol' work trucks all the way to the pretty stuff that was leaving on the back of other trucks at the end of the show. Just so we don't hurt anyone's feelings it should also be mentioned there was a great selection of panels, Suburban's, flatbeds, and COE trucks at the event. For information about next year's show, and maybe by the time this issue hits the newsstand the show winners will be announced, checkout www.brotherstrucks.com. ct

Causation, Correlation and Detroit
Let us stipulate that the collapse of Detroit, MI and its recent Chapter Nine bankruptcy filing represents an all-American train wreck of inexcusable dimension. Detroit went from being considered by some the Athens of The West to having a credit rating and crime problem more reminiscent of the Mogadishu of The Midlands. So many people are blamed for the current state of Detroit. But most of what you read is patently illogical.
Those who have no desire to deal with the truth tend to deliberately invert the mechanisms by which Detroit, MI was reduced to an ash heap reminiscent of Hiroshima without the expenditure of thermonuclear ordnance. The general technique of obscuring what went wrong in Detroit is to deliberately conflate causation with correlation. I've read a lot of biased writing over the last few days about Detroit. In every case, the thesis of the article, editorial, or blog post involves describing a result of Detroit's stupidity as the fountainhead of the stupid itself.Read More »

Some critics of Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum said video footage of a speech at a campaign event shows him starting to utter a racial slur while referring to President Obama, then cutting himself off mid-word.
While speaking to a group of supporters in Wisconsin on Tuesday, Santorum said, "We know what the candidate, Barack Obama, was like. The anti-war, government nig--, uh…" before stopping abruptly, then adding, "America was, uh, a source for division around the world. And that what we were doing was wrong. We needed to pull out and we needed to pull back."
Although the uncompleted word sure sounds like it began with "nig" and what Santorum said next in the sentence didn't flow naturally with the other words, a campaign spokesman today denied that the uncompleted word was "nigger."
In January Santorum told a crowd of supporters in Iowa that he didn't "want to make black people's lives better by giving them other people's money."
Here is the clip of Tuesday's speech. The remark causing controversy is spoken around the 34:30 mark. You can decide for yourself.
A rally will be held at Fountain Square today to commemorate the shooting death of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin and to demand a thorough investigation of the incident.
The event begins at 5 p.m. and attendees are asked to bring signs that aren't posted on sticks, to comply with a local law, and also to wear hooded jackets. Martin, 17, was wearing a "hoodie" when George Zimmerman allegedly killed him Feb. 26 in Sanford, Fla.
Rallies have been held across the nation during the past week to protest the handling of Martin's case. Many of the participants have worn hoodies in a show of solidarity with the slain teenager, often carrying signs that state, "I am Trayvon Martin."
Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory posted a similar photograph on his Facebook page over the weekend. It's unclear if Mallory plans to attend today's rally.
Among the groups organizing the rally are Occupy The Hood and the Intercommunity Justice and Peace Center.
Zimmerman, 28, who says he belongs to a neighborhood watch program in his gated community, began following Martin at about 7 p.m. for what he described in a 911 call as "suspicious behavior." Martin was walking back to his father's condominium after buying iced tea for himself and Skittles for his soon-to-be stepbrother.
"This guy looks like he's up to no good, on drugs or something," Zimmerman told a 911 dispatcher.
Some sort of encounter occurred that resulted in Martin's death. Sanford Police didn't arrest Zimmerman, saying that it appeared he acted in self-defense.
Sanford Police accepted Zimmerman's version of events at face value. "Until we can establish probable cause to dispute that, we don't have the grounds to arrest him," Sanford Police Chief Billy Lee told ABC News earlier this month.
After the incident became publicized through Facebook, Twitter and other social media, public outcry grew. More than 2 million people have signed an online petition demanding justice, and the FBI and the U.S. Justice Department have launched investigations.
This week's ruling by the Ohio Civil Rights Commission that a Greater Cincinnati landlady violated a girl's civil rights by posting a "whites only" sign at an apartment complex's swimming pool is a decision that most rational people would say is just.
The Jan. 12 ruling means the commission, if it cannot reach a settlement with landlady Jamie Hein, could issue a complaint against her with the Ohio Attorney General's Office. The AG's Office would then represent the complainant, Michael Gunn, before an administrative law judge, who could impose penalties and punitive damages.

Mark Gabriel named new Western Administrator
DOE announced Mark Gabriel as Western's new Administrator Apr. 3. Welcome to Western, Mark!
While the DOE announcement provides Mark's curriculum vitae and relevant background, he gave Western employees a little more personal look shortly after the announcement.
In his first few months at Western, Mark says his top tasks will be to get a sense of the organization, get a solid handle on the critical issues we face and work to understand the intricacies of the place. "It is too early for me to set hard goals, and I have a lot to learn from the team at Western, our customers and our partners at DOE. It will be critical for me to develop an understanding and assessment on the financial situation focusing on the unique challenges faced by Western." He added, "I will also actively reach out to the customers and staff. The relationship with people is how organizations succeed or fail."
In addition to being an avid outdoorsman, Mark said, "One of my other hobbies is the history of our great electric industry—that is why I included so much of it in my book, Visions for a Sustainable Energy Future. It may sound corny, but I truly believe that it is a privilege and honor to keep this nation's vital resource and critical infrastructure operating every day."
On why he applied to be Western's Administrator, Mark said, "Western's mission of delivering clean and reliable power to customers while maintaining our nation's critical infrastructure aligns perfectly with my beliefs and goals. Having worked in this wonderful business for more than 20 years on a number of critical projects and problems, the opportunity to work for an organization so critical to this nation's economic vitality and health was too hard to pass up."
If you could ask Mark one question as he approaches his new job, what would it be?

GEICO Ford Fusion Logs Top-5 Qualifying Effort at Daytona
Posted by: lori on Feb 20, 2012
Tagged in: Untagged
Daytona Beach, FL (February 19, 2012) – What a difference a year makes. In February 2011's Duel 150's, smoke billowed from the rear of Casey Mears' #13 GEICO car and with it blew up Germain Racing's Daytona 500 hopes.
That was then… this is now.
Casey Mears and his Germain Racing team rolled into Daytona International Speedway last week with a new engine package, new manufacturer, new paint scheme and a contract extension from their sponsor, GEICO. While other teams most likely put little thought into the #13 team and its prospects, the crew of the GEICO Ford Fusion possessed a quiet confidence that this year would be different; that it would be special. They intently went about their work in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series garage bookended by Hendrick Motorsports teams, and showed little concern after Mears ended up 31st in the opening practice session on Saturday.
Mears returned to the track for the series' second practice session and quickly shot to third on the board, before winding up 17th at its conclusion. A considerable improvement from the opening session, Mears indicated to people within earshot that the team left some speed on the table. He also wore his patented grin when considering the upcoming qualifying session with his crew chief, Bootie Barker.
Mears and the #13 GEICO Ford Fusion were slated as the fourth team to make a qualifying attempt on Sunday afternoon. Amid gusty winds, he quickly took to the high-banked racetrack with an unrelenting sense of urgency, pacing the 2.5-mile facility in just 46.429 seconds, at a rate of speed of 193.844 miles per hour. Mears' qualifying effort placed him fifth on the final speed chart; a far cry from the heartbreak he and his team experienced a year ago and it also affords him a premium starting position (second) in Thursday's Gatorade Duel 150's.
Ford would also go on to enjoy its own success, netting four of the top five positions in today's qualifying session.
"This is a great day for our Germain Racing team, our sponsor GEICO and also for Ford," Mears said. "But, honestly, we've worked really hard in the off-season and this team has made tremendous sacrifices, so it's not totally unexpected. It's a great way to start the season, especially in our first outing in a Ford and with Roush Yates power; can't thank those guys enough. It's also nice to be able to reward GEICO for their loyal support of our team. Thursday will be exciting, so we'll see how it all shakes out."
Next up for the Germain Racing team is the Gatorade Duel 150's on Thursday, February 23rd. Mears and the #13 GEICO Ford Fusion will roll off the starting grid from the outside pole in Duel #2. The Gatorade Duel 150's will be broadcast live on SPEED starting at 1 PM (ET), with the Motor Racing Network (MRN) carrying live radio coverage.

Minor update, got some buildings placed and some basic backdrop colors. Also color coded rail lines that will probably be altered for the final version. There is a rail system that spans the entire continent in the story, and Maldora has the largest station and most lines passing through it, being the capitol and all.
Kinda unsure how I'm going to do the cliff though, so open to any and all suggestions on that.

"When we publicly started supporting Obama, we did have a lot of fans that were upset about that and just thought, 'you should keep your political opinions to yourself,' " lead singer Matt Berninger told reporters before their Thursday GottaVote concert sponsored by the Obama campaign.
"And I actually totally understand that and in many ways almost agree. I don't want to be preached to by the Rock bands that I like."The band drew a mixed crowd of 750 people to the intimate show at The Emery Theater on Thursday. The concert's purpose was to encourage attendees to vote for Obama in the Nov. 6 election and encourage Cincinnatians to take advantage of Ohio's early voting.

CityBeat staff writer Andy Brownfield contributed to this report.
A new study has found high levels of arsenic in fruit juices that millions of kids are drinking because there's pictures of actual food on the label. Too bad government regulation is just a big waste of money that hurts the economy.
A full 10 percent of the juices tested by the magazine had arsenic levels higher than what is allowed in water by the Food and Drug Administration.
"What we're talking about here is not acute affects," Urvashi Rangan, director of safety and sustainability at Consumer Reports, told TODAY. "We're talking about chronic effects. We're talking about cancer risk. And so, the fact that 10 percent of our samples exceeded the drinking water standard underscores the need for a standard to be set in juices."
Consumer Reports tested 88 samples of apple and grape juices sold around the country. Included among those tested were popular juices like Minute Maid, Welch's and Tropicana.
Happy Election Day! It looks like SB 5 is headed for a big defeat even though Gov. Kasich last night told a bunch of East Side Tea Partiers how cool it would be if Issue 2 passed, while a union representative told opponents of the bill that it was about to get "shoved down the throats of John Kasich and the Republicans."
The Hamilton County Administrator yesterday said "sorry homeowners, but our stadium deficit will not allow us to offer the tax credit Republicans said would make up for your part of the stadium sales tax." Commissioners Todd Portune and Chris Monzel today said they're going to include the credit even though they don't know how yet. Hopefully they can figure it out soon so they can work on adding public housing to the suburbs before the county gets sued by the Feds.
Not that anyone really gives a [expletive] what Hank Williams, Jr., thinks about politics, but the country singer has gotten himself canned from Monday Night Football for saying insensitive things about subjects he doesn't know that much about. Williams yesterday told Fox & Friends that John Boehner's golf game with President Obama was "one of the biggest political mistakes ever," comparing it to "Hitler playing golf with (Israeli leader) Benjamin Netanyahu," and then explaining that Obama and Joe Biden are "the enemy."

I am writing a program which will use Chi-Square to determine which is the correct keyword for a ciphertext via Vigenère cipher.
I came across a website that describes the Chi-Square statistics in a rather simplistic manner and had also written some code to achieve my goals. However, the actual keyword does not seem to be the lowest chi-square value as according to the website. I'm not sure if the method as describe is correct or not.
Below is the weblink: http://practicalcryptography.com/cryptanalysis/text-characterisation/chi-squared-statistic/
Would someone be able to provide some advice on this?

Egypt's Military Ousts President
Millions celebrate one year after Muslim hardliner was elected to fill the position
July 4, 2013
CAIRO (AP) — The armed forces ousted Egypt's first democratically elected president Wednesday after just a year in power, installing a temporary civilian government, suspending the constitution and......
Go ahead and keep on believing that oldmasvan. Keep drinking the Kool-Aid buddy. He and Hilary helped force Mubarick out. They kept pressuring him to go. So he stepped down and the Muslim Brotherhood forced their way into the electoral process. Nobody wanted Morsi either but Oabama supported his Muslim brother and helped him get "elected".

I wonder what the press release from Mr. Carney will say now? Maybe they will repeat the sentiment but change the names? Doubtful. Now Obama is probably tightening his pucker because he realizes that they could use those fighter jets, tanks, weapons and money could be turned back on us because he supported Morsi and the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, er I mean, Muslim Brotherhood.

As I said MANY times, having ONE easily bribed and controlled dictator to deal with is MUCH easier than dealing with 14 splinter groups

Obama/Hillary supported this puppet and helped to overthrow the moderate Muslim government and hand over control of Egypt to this radical Islamist tool as part of their "Arab Spring."
Apparently, Hillary is so qualified that she believes we are better served by replacing moderate rulers with whom we could deal with radical Muslims who support Sharia Law. Hillary oversaw the loss of moderate governments in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya.
How successful she was as SOS! Between her flunked bar exams, Wal-Mart board service, failure of HillaryCare, public humiliation from Bill, failed Presidential run and complete and utter failure as Secretary of State, I can't think of a single reason why she is not qualified to be President!

And it makes us less dependent upon the fluctuations of the global oil market by created a North American oil market that is USA friendly.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- About 300 Janitors, who say they haven't been paid for their work at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, held a rally on Tuesday.
Their union filed a complaint with the Department of Labor against the contractor that hired them.
However, Escab Enterprises says it hasn't been paid by the federal government, so it can't pay the workers.
9News reached out to the spokesperson at Walter Reed National Military Medical who said they received a incorrect invoice from Escab Enterpirses which contributed to the delay in their payment.
Walter Reed has since received a corrected invoice and paid the contractor.

So??? Did the thought never occur to you that once the installers get there and see SWiM installed that they'd no longer charge that person for it or require it? They'd simply mark his account as SWiM and move on.
No, it occurred to me that the installer would have "CCK" (not SWiM) on their work order, and install an unnecessary CCK, and the customer would be billed for it.

Meridian, Miss.
Incumbent Mayor Cheri Barry defeated her Republican challenger, William Bond Compton, Jr., to win the GOP nomination.
Percy Bland defeated Democratic challenger Rod Amos to win his party's nomination.
Two independent candidates are running for mayor as well:
Wally Hudnall and Walter Patton.
The general election is June 4.
Runoffs will decide some city council races in Meridian.
In Ward 2, incumbent Mary Perry is in a May 21 runoff with Kenneth Dustin Markham.
In Ward 4, there is a very close race to make the May 21 runoff. Longtime incumbent Jesse Palmer was in third place Tuesday night but was very close to Craig Houston's total. Absentee/affidavit ballots could change who makes the runoff. Kim Houston led the field and is definitely in the runoff.
Incumbent Ward 5 councilman Bobby Smith was defeated in the Republican Primary. Randy Hammon won 62% of the vote.

Flaky All Over
19/12/2010 23:11 by Amsterdamize
Slowly but surely a heavy snow front moved over the Netherlands last Friday. Given that our national railway company has shown to be ill-prepared for anything wet, whether liquid or solid, I left the office (about 55 km south of Amsterdam) early, around 3pm. Unsurprisingly, trains were out of order indefinitely.
I took a shot at taking a bus. As that schedule was shaky too, I used the winter scenes as a way to calm down :).
I'll spare you the details, but I got home over 5 hours later. Yes, completely knackered, fed up & generally frustrated at the complete melt-down of our public transportation network. So I popped a beer, took it easy and occasionally looked out the window, appreciating the fact that I actually made it back home.
I woke up to an even whiter wonder world. That called for a ride & pictures. Not exactly a comfortable one, because
the city ordinance neglected to do the right thing & clear the roads, even the most traveled ones. And this weekend it's certainly worse than last one, lots of ice, sleet and piled up crap that creates unnecessary havoc & risky situations. Of course, Amsterdammers/the Dutch are pretty pragmatic, you'll still see 'm out there on two wheels, but not as much as usual. With trams and buses not exactly running on time, there are only two options left: on foot or by car. Guess what, people will not walk 2-7 km for their daily errands. Anyway, I think I managed to capture the essence of the aforementioned. Regarding the mood of this post & to be absolutely clear: this city's beauty quickly melted away all my built-up frustrations. Some would say:
nothing a bike ride can't fix
I fell on my butt twice this weekend. Both on foot. Just sayin'. :)

LANSING (WILX)-- WILX reported Saturday night about a possible armed robbery at Happy's Inn in South Lansing.
Police are now saying there just isn't enough credible evidence.
Police told us Sunday morning that the calls they recieved about an armed robbery at Happy's Inn appears to have been a false report.
They say the residents have a history of reporting stolen prescription drugs that seem to be motivated by obtaining more from doctors.
Police also found some of the drugs that were claimed to be stolen hidden in the apartment.
The investigation is still on going.

Thanks to DtL reader Jason for tipping me off to this image of James Blake practicing at Melbourne Park today.
The American baller looks to be working a Fila practice tee even though he just competed at the Hopman Cup in his usual Nike duds:
WTF?! I hadn't heard anything about James making the switch to Fila. I wonder if this is a new sponsorship or he just lose his luggage in transit and is borrowing the duds.
If this is signed, sealed, and delivered then he'll join Anna Chakvetadze this year as new ballers in the brand's stable.
With Next Week's Australia Open U.S. tennis star James Blake will begin wearing Fila at next week's Australian Open after spending his career with Nike. The deal is expected to be formally unveiled soon.
And there's more over at tennis week too!

Map (Click to enlarge)
Created in: Photoshop
This time our featured map is brought to us by a fairly new member of the Cartographers Guild. This being the first map he posted here, it has garnered a good deal of respect. Another map done in Photoshop without using any strictly-for-mapping software, Pollexia shows a nice blend between the digital and traditional aspects of mapping.
Artists Notes
Pollexia, one of six medieval countries comprising the greater continent of Westaven, is an aggressive nation currently attempting to recreate the ancient, imperial greatness of its heritage. As such she is constantly at war with her neighbors, and hence she is divided into a number of strongholds, each with a lord to muster troop and coin. Will Pollexia succeed? Is she right to even try? Can any one man impact her future?...
I first designed Pollexia a few years ago when on a whim I downloaded Autorealm just to "play around." I had not RPG'd in over fifteen years and was fiddling with the idea of a return, using the Internet to reconnect with both the hobby and with my best friend since 3rd grade who now lives clear across the country. It was a huge success for us. We met some new, wonderful people, had roaring times, found that GURPS is just as much fun at 35 as at 15, and we've barely missed a Thursday night in almost two years of play. (Here is our game's wiki, if you're interested.)
Well, it soon became clear my quick-made maps were insufficient. Not only were they fairly unattractive, but I had used whimsical, nonsensical names for cities and such. The new map shown above--created in Photoshop, an amazing program at which I'm a complete beginner--fixes the first problem. Name editing fixed most of the second problem, although some places have become deeply ingrained in our campaign so I could not change their names. For example, "pollex" is another name for a thumb; plus Hadrian and Falstaff have, of course, well-known origins. Oh well. Oddity is the pepper of life.
The look I attempted to create is a cross between an authentic medieval map and more modern, artistic cartography. I like the feel of the ink over watercolor, and I even attempted to purposefully insert a few errors, smudges, and humanity on the map. The entire drawing was created using the mouse, and it is completely original except for the parchment (downloaded from WotC's "Map A Week") and the dragon's basic outline (which I saved from some web site's logo years ago, then edited.) When I have time I would like to replace each castle and town symbol with a unique drawing, as well as anything else that pops into this mush-ball I call a brain!

�The Holly and The Ivy� tour is a New Bern holiday tradition, drawing hundreds of guests into festively decorated historic homes. The proceeds fuel the major fundraiser of the year for the New Bern Women�s Club and its support of numerous local charities and also provides scholarship money.
This year�s tour is Dec. 8, from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at seven featured homes, along with the New Bern Fireman�s Museum and several supporting businesses.
For 14 years, homeowners have opened their houses to showcase some of the city�s finest residences, with docents to share facts and stories about the homes.
The tour would not be complete without the designated �Sugar Plum Treats House,� which this year is the Forbes House at 717 Pollock Street. It is from the 1760 era.
The self-guided walking tour includes two homes each on Johnson and Hancock streets and three on Pollock Street.
The list of homes this year include:
The Dr. William R. Hand House, 216 Johnson St. is from the 1925-26 era and has a gambrel roofline and other Colonial Revival elements.
The Old Headmaster�s House, 422 Johnson St., was built around 1830 and has transitional late Federal and early Greek detailing.
The John Horner Hill House, 713 Pollock St., dates to the 1770s and is in Georgian style, with later plain Greek revival and Victorian work.
The Thomas Daniels Rental Property, 215 Hancock St., was built in 1895, with a three-sided bay that set it apart from other small gable-front homes.
The Lassiter Rental House, 207 Hancock, is also from 1895, a cozy home with a twin at 209 Hancock St.
The Street-Ward House, 509 Pollock St., is from 1882 and is a late-Victorian cross-gabled roof style. The house is now the Aerie Inn Bed and Breakfast. The Aerie Guest House and Conference Center, across the street at 512 Pollock, will also be featured. It is a 1908 vintage Colonial Revival house.
The New Bern Firemen�s Museum, 408 Hancock St., adds to the historic value of the tour, dedicated to the preservation of the storied fire-fighting history in the city.
Each tour stop is marked with a decorative outdoor lantern.
Featured lunch spots for the tour include Baker�s Kitchen on Middle Street, Lawson�s Landing Caf� at the N.C. History Center and Morgan�s Tavern & Grill.
Tickets are $15 in advance and $18 the day of the tour. Blocks of 10 advance tickets are $130.

Andy Murray, who I think has one of the best baller sites around, is giving us a behind-the-scenes peek at a fitting for his 2009 Fred Perry gear.
The Brit baller is seen in a meeting discussing the design inspirations and getting fitted for his new duds:
It's an interesting process, which is all the more important to pro athletes. Whilst we might just size clothes up in a 'well, it kind of fits' kind of way, these guys have to feel totally comfortable in it day after day.
Every little detail is looked at, with feedback taken on items from last year.So now you know, a lot of work goes into making sure that shirt sits absolutely right on his shoulders. They even discussed how the fit of the shirt changes over the course of a match.
And, it looks like the designers found an iconic source of inspiration for next season:
Could it be the return of the shorty-shorts to tennis after all? [Insert Rafa/Simone imagery]
This is great stuff. I give big props to Team Andy for consistently giving fans an "insidery" look into his world on and off the court including pre-/post-match thoughts, training, fitness, fashion, and plain ol' fun.
Now if only more baller sites could jump on his bandwagon.

Color Conscious: Color-Filled Kids' Rooms
Best of 2012
Sometimes you walk into a room and color is the first thing you notice. Perhaps it's a bold color choice on the walls that wallops you over the head or an interesting or daring color combo. Or maybe it's just a thoughtful, even subtle, use of color to create a mood or feeling. Here are ten 2012 rooms where the color choices really stand out:
• Ella's Playful Paradise
• A Vibrant Room for Three
• A Colorful Nursery/Guest Room Combo
• Vintage Love in Felix's Room
• Ellie's Aqua & Gray Abode
• Corbin's Colorful Crib
• Clare's Big Girl Restyle
• Emerson's Alpha Numero Room
• Noah's Nautical Nest
• Colton's Bright Blue Room

Roger Federer played his first match since his record-breaking win at Wimbledon and the birth of his twin mangoes and - guess what? - he picked up where he left off . With a win.
The 15-time Grand Slammer was understandably rusty but managed to defeat homeboy Frederic Niemeyer 7-6, 6-4 in his opening round in Montreal.
The Swiss stylist also debuted a new colorway in his Wimbledon Nike polo aka the Men's Fall Court Polo ($65) - glass + black. And, for all of you who rage at the typical sausage American sizing in athletic gear here in the U.S. you'll be thrilled to know the polo features a European cut with a slimmer body and slightly shorter sleeves. *cheers*
Make sure to check back for a preview of Fed's US Open duds later this month!

FASHION FIX: Fed makes winning return in Montreal, works glass Wimby polo
Labels: fashion, Montreal, Nike, polo shirt, Roger Federer, style, The Rogers Cup
3 comments:
I watched his match and thought that the outfit looked phenomenal. I really like the jacket he wore with the ensemble. Of all the blue outfits Nike has right now, I think Roger's is the best and he also works it better than the other guys. However, it doesn't look as good in pictures. It looks much better on video. I don't know why.ReplyDelete
Also, have you seen JJ's new dress? It looks like the poor girl got attacked by a victorian curtain and the mango sorbet in my freezer.

Too much of the same color all over. I like Rafa's choice of blue with the fun yellow headband/wristband contrast better.ReplyDelete

I love it. Roger looks great with turquoise, especially with his tan :)ReplyDelete

Service Part of Final Tailgate Stop
OMAHA, Neb.—The final day of the 2008 Cyclone Tailgate Tour was a long, rewarding experience for the tour party of Iowa State coaches and staff that culminated with an event at Digz. The day included a stop at the Omaha Food Bank and the Omaha Children's Hospital.
The touring party chipped in at the Food Bank, sorting and boxing non-perishable food to be distributed to over 360 agencies throughout Nebraska and Western Iowa. The group toured the facility before pitching in, readying food for distribution.
"We have had uptick in the need for food," said Stephanie Robb, who helps coordinate the distribution of food to the needy. "We really appreciate the work that the Cyclone group did today. Anytime we can get this type of help it is always appreciated."
The party toured the Children's Hospital for the second straight year. Cy was perhaps the biggest hit with the patients who also got autographs and pictures with Iowa State basketball coaches Greg McDermott and Bill Fennelly.
The evening's entertainment had been moved from the Oak View Mall to Digz, at 4428 South 140th St. The grill includes wide open spaced and sand volleyball courts.
"We really appreciated all the individuals who came out to express their support of Cyclones athletics," Iowa State athletics director Jamie Pollard said. "We wanted to provide an event that would be low cost, family-friendly and give people a real chance to talk with our coaches and staff one on one."
One of the featured guests was Omaha native and ISU head volleyball coach Christy Johnson. Johnson has completely turned around the Iowa State program, taking the Cyclones to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament last fall.
The tour dodged some bad weather that threatened to lower attendance at several tour stops. But again, the loyalty of ISU fans overcame those weather obstacles and overcame those challenges and affirmed the vision Pollard had when the athletics director conceived his vision of the tour.

text: Just got back from my Wy antelope hunt. Had a great time! Got to my unit mid afternoon and started seeing antelope immediately! Saw 8 bucks that night driving in. Woke up next morning to an inch of snow. I spotted this buck with over a dozen does glassing at first light. Put the spotting scope on him and I knew he was a nice buck so I stalked in to 300 yards and put him down in his tracks with 1 shot from my 270! He was even bigger then I expected when I got up to him!!! Not sure what he scores yet but it really doesnt matter, Im very happy with him! Saw alot more antelope on the way out and even got a coyote! Then I got a leftover doe tag and went to scout my 2nd choice unit for next year. I wasnt quite clear on the blm lines so I stopped at a ranch to clarify what was blm and after talking a while I was allowed to fill my doe tag on the ranch and invited to come back next year! There were some other hunters there and 1 guys 12 year old daughter got her first antelope. She even helped skin mine. Its always nice to see kids getting into hunting and it was a great experience!!!! Then I went up to North Dakota and visited some good friends for a day before coming home. All in all the whole trip was great!

James Shields and Wade Davis introduced in Kansas City
Newly acquired right-handed pitchers James Shields and Wade Davis donned Royals uniforms for the first time today at a morning press conference. General Manager Dayton Moore and Manager Ned Yost joined the media session.
Yost said that Shields and Davis "have winning flowing in their veins". He is excited with these additions plus Jeremy Guthrie and Ervin Santana, noting how important it is to have five consistent starters. The aforementioned pitchers currently line up as KC's first four, with Yost foreseeing a spring battle for the fifth spot.
Yost saw the 2012 All-Star week as a turning point, noting the big crowds for all of the events that week. He is excited for the possibility of a similar "phenomenal atmosphere" at Kauffman Stadium in 2013.
Shields echoed Yost's comments, noting the passion and drive of the fan base. Shields settled in with a number 24 jersey, though he has worn 33 for most of his career. That number is currently held by Jeremy Guthrie. Lighthearted negotiations for 33 are ongoing, with Shields knowing that he may have to find a pair of shoes (or two) for Guthrie, who likes his sneakers.
Moore and Yost were asked about the importance of a winning culture, something that is hard to put into numbers. Yost cited his experiences in Atlanta, where the addition of a few key pieces were the difference as the Braves went from worst to first. Moore spoke about Zack Greinke and his return from anxiety issues. Moore believes that the culture – from the front office to the media – helped Greinke get to where he is today.
Speaking of Greinke, Davis was asked about a May, 2010 start in which he tossed 7.0 shutout innings in a 1-0 Rays win over the former KC righty. Davis remembered it fondly and is ready to have more opportunities as he returns to a starting role.

I met Wade Davis tonight at the the Humnbirds Training Center in Montgomery NY!!!!!!! He was super nice to me and my father. Just checked out all of his stats and he is an awesome pitcher.

I like Iowa State by 8-9 in this one.
Go Braves!
WOOO! Go State! ISU 74 Tech 63
"The greatest risk in life is not taking one"
I'm excited. Last two games Royce was out fast with foul trouble yet we won both halves. That bodes well going forward.
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2Mm-E5CQK0]Leeroy Jenkins (short version) - YouTube[/ame]
Your saying it took 3 min to make a official gameday thread?? You slackers!!
Closer than comfort but ISU 77 Tech 73...Lubbock will still be glad to see us leave again.
Haven't won in Lubbock since 2000. That said, we pull out a close one to end the streak.
THIS is a must win if we want any chance at the NCAA.
I've looked a couple of the 'experts' predictions some have us as a bubble (last 4 out or last 4 in) so this is a must win.
It is often stated you defend your homecourt and steal some on the road.... You don't steal this one, YOU TAKE IT just as we sent to A&M and took that one.
For what it is worth, some jacka$$ on CBS has only 4 teams from the Big XII and 9 (NINE) from the B1G. Ridiculous!
You should be required to post the game details in the OP when you start one of these threads. Time, location, and, most importantly, channel.
This is a very important game today. A game we should win and a game we need to win if we have any shot at a tourney bid. That said, game is on the road. And this team is very inconsistent. Which team shows up? Can they play a solid 40 minutes?

I agree. We need some game thread standards.
Let's Go State!
The game is on ESPN2 @ 4:00pm
ESPN3 as well.

Texas Tech hasn't scored over 60 in conference play yet. Jordan Tolbert is really their only threat...assuming Babb will be guarding him and he'll lock him down, and ISU's defense will prevail. ISU wins 71-54

If Royce can play 30+ mins, and get Lewandowski in foul trouble, it could be lopsided. If the opposite, and we don't have energy, I think it could be close.

How To French Headlights - Head StrongWritten by on April 4, 2012 Frenching Headlights with an Old-School Twist
When GM developed the headlight design of the '55 Chevy, it was all about show and chrome. The design was structured around a lustrous headlight insert that filled a spacious headlight fender opening for a bold look. Albeit the insert is a definitive look of the Tri-Five Chevy, it doesn't bode well with the customizer. To a customizer, big flashy chrome inserts surrounding headlights are gaudier than the Kardashian's come New Years Eve! Which means the only cure is to french.
One of the fundamentals surrounding the art of customizing is frenching headlights. For those out of the know, frenching headlights is the task of molding in a set of headlight rings to flow as one with the fender. Upon doing so, any seam—or form of chrome adornment—is welded, painted, and disguised as a simple extension of a body panel. For the most part the job is pretty straight forward, but being it was developed in the early days of customizing, the concept ran uncontrolled with an outpouring of ideas on how to french headlights. For some, they simply chose to use the vehicle's pre-existing headlight bezels and rings, yet others chose rings and bezels from different makes and models. As the fad caught on, customizers soon found certain breeds of rings and bezels were suited for this type of work over others. Some of the favorites were those pirated from '52 Fords, '55 Chevys (cars), '56 Oldsmobiles, '52 Mercurys, and '58 Chevys for those after a dual-headlight. Things have come so far from the first inception of frenched headlights that in today's marketplace several companies offer their own versions of frenching kits. What it all boils down to is there are several ways to skin this cat!
When scanning the pages of CCT, one would find that frenched headlights are no stranger to these pages. However, the majority of frenched headlights in this realm are of the aftermarket variety, which most commonly mounts the headlights flush with the fender's cavity. Star Kustom Shop's latest project, a '55 Chevy truck, is a throwback to the good old days of customizing and, what custom is complete without a set of frenched headlights? Therefore the '55 will undergo a french job, old school style. Star Kustom decided to go with a set of '52-54 Mercury rings and bezels. The Mercury components offer a clean, round , flowing, and period-correct look that will complement the curves of the '55 nicely. Apart from that, they will also buck the trend of the countersunk look and give the custom a distinguished one-off look. Making things easy is the fact that these Merc products are now available through the aftermarket. Instead of searching swap meets and junkyards a simple phone call will land a set of OE styled Mercury rings and bezels at your door, which means one can get straight to work. Speaking of work, enough hoopla, let's get the torch! CCT

I decided the ring had a little too much of a bug eyed look when butted up to the fender, therefore, I decided to remove some meat. Using 3/4-inch tape, I marked off my cut line around the ring, and removed the area highlighted in yellow.Originally, the ring and bezel would be assembled off the car, and then the assembled unit would be installed to cap off the headlight. However, being that the ring will be welded to the car, that method is now a no-go, but with a little engineering all will be well again. In order to create a system that works, the actual headlight bucket must first be welded to the fender flange at the fender opening. Before any welding, make sure the headlight is centered in the opening.The stock method of mounting the Mercury bezel inside the ring is via a set of clips. Normally the clips would be inserted from the backside, and then the assembled bezel and ring would be mounted to the car. Again, not anymore; so here's how ya get things to gel. The bezel will now be fastened to the ring with trim screws, which means a set of mounting tabs must be welded at the north and south end of the ring, BEFORE it is frenched in.Next, the ring, with the bezel sitting in place, is centered on the headlight and welded in—or should we say frenched in!Here's how things measure up. Yet again, things just didn't sit right with me. Normally, the factory chrome insert would fill up more of the hollow cavity on the front of the fender. Without that insert it looked as if the headlight was just popped in place. To fix the problem I'm going to reshape the openings by giving them a shallower appearance around the newly placed '53 Merc ring.I fabricated a few sheetmetal panels, shaped to better suit the eyebrow opening to the headlight. Using Cleco fasteners to hold the sheetmetal panels in place, I then welded the panels to the fender.As mentioned before, the bezel used to secure to the ring via clips. It's now impossible to clip the bezels in position; therefore, they will need to be secured using screws. Here's how it's done. First, I found this 1-inch brass bung, but a piece of simple pipe would work as well.Next, I placed the bung under the bezel and punched a mark at the north and south end of the ring. A 1⁄8-inch hole was then drilled at each end.
Remember the tabs welded to the rings back at the beginning of the story? It's now time to line up the counter sunk holes to the tabs and drill another 1⁄8-inch hole at each end. At this point the headlight can be installed.The last step is to simply place the Merc bezel into the ring and secure it with a couple of stainless trim screws. Simple as that!

Second defendant will be sentenced April 8.
By Jan RahnManaging Editor One of two defendants in an attempted robbery of the Farmers State Bank in Wallace was sentenced last week. Tracy Black, 53, of Evanston, Wyo., entered a no contest plea and was sentenced by Judge Donald Rowlands in District Court in Lincoln County on March 25. Black was sentenced to one-and-a-half to three years in prison for his role as driver of a getaway vehicle in the attempted robbery on Aug. 13, 2012. Black's accomplice, Drew Steier, 21, also of Evanston, Wyo., is awaiting sentencing on April 8. Steir entered a no contest plea on March 12, and the same sentence is recommended by the county attorney's office. Steier entered the Farmers State Bank in Wallace wearing a mask and wielding a BB gun. He demanded money and was told by a bank teller that the money was locked up in the vault, whereupon he left the bank and he and Black drove out of town. The Ford F-250 pickup they were driving was stopped north of Imperial about an hour later and both men taken into custody.

How to Tell When the Moving Man Is Really a Con Man
You may like the idea of a new house, but the process of moving is rarely fun for anyone. Still, an estimated 37 million Americans move each year, and a third will do so between Memorial Day and Labor Day. But moving can be more than a logistical hassle: It you're not careful, you could get bamboozled in a big way.

Graph of carbon dioxide (CO2), temperature, and dust concentration measured from the Vostok, Antarctica ice core as reported by Petit et al. (1999). The close correspondence between carbon dioxide changes and temperature changes is a characteristic feature of the recent ice ages, though it is noted that temperature changes begin slightly (~800 years) before the carbon dioxide changes (Caillon et al. 2003) and are presumed to be initiated by Milankovitch cycles. However, the greenhouse gas feedbacks indicated here are believed to be responsible for most of the ice age climate change, especially far from continental ice sheets (Weaver et al. 1998).
Higher dust levels are characteristic of cold, dry periods.

Real Reality From Our House: I'm always ready to win the lottery
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Gambling is of no interest to me whatsoever, but I have always known that I will someday win the Powerball. I am so sure of this that I rarely buy tickets and I scoff at those who do. Who wins what, what state the Powerball is won in, weighing out the chances -- or even thinking about the dollar amount -- is totally immaterial to me.
It's just something that I know will happen.
I have already planned my foundation.
I already know which passports we will acquire. I already know where we will hide when everyone finds out where we live. I have already decided who gets what, both now and in my last will and testament. I have already decided that the governess will be Chinese, not British. I already know that nothing will change except the amount of people we employ and the absolute fact that I will not deal with any of them.
What if my in-laws challenge the winnings? What if they say I found a $20 bill in my husband's pants pocket to buy the tickets because I don't have any money of my own?
I have already checked into this also.
There is no judge in the WORLD that would redistribute my Powerball proceeds once they find out the work I have to do. If they sue me, I am just going to reveal that I have already given my husband half of it! Or possibly all of it! They can even have some too!
Then the entire extended family will set sail for destinations unknown in my boat "The Love Lottery."
But it will have to be a VERY big boat.
Now this whole scenario will be a cute movie, which I plan to option to Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck's production company.
I might decide to become a director or stick my sons in the movie.
But what I'd really like to do is take some cooking classes in Europe, learn another language and make stunning scrapbooks.
Why all of this hasn't fallen in my lap yet is beyond me.
So when I remembered to buy Powerball tickets the other day, I got 10 of them. I already had four tickets I hadn't even bothered to check yet from last time. In fact, I am not really sure how to check Powerball tickets, so I have probably won before and just didn't even know it! Someone told me to go back to the store where I bought them and they could check it for me. I have to make a note of that.
So I put on my Russian Red Chanel lipstick and went to the Go-Mart. I said, "Hello, friend, would you check my Powerball tickets?"
I stood there patiently, smiling, even though I am usually in a wild hurry about everything because there is something crazy going on at the house. But this was a moment I wanted to savor.
So he ran them all through the machine. He said if I won the Powerball, the machine would beep.
So I stood there like I know the sun is going to rise in the east. I wasn't even excited about it.
As he was running all the tickets through, I said, "You know, I really don't care about this. That's how I know the outcome. You see, I don't actually do this kind of thing. It's really quite silly."
The clerk just looked at me.
It was the day before Thanksgiving and he was looking totally exhausted, wearing pajama pants.
When the machine didn't buzz after the final ticket, I knew it was either a mistake or that the time was not yet nigh. I was shocked but by no means disappointed.
Absolutely no one could spend a Powerball as skillfully as I could, which doesn't mean I LIKE the idea or that I WANT to do it. It just means I know how. On some fundamental level, I intuit that winning the Powerball is just going to be a whole big bunch of MORE WORK FOR ME. That may be the reason why it isn't all that exciting.
Afterward I just stood there in complete disbelief, and said, "Really?"

ST. PETERSBURG, Florida -- Volunteers with the Stop the Lens campaign celebrated Tuesday night's victory as voters rejected the city's plan to build an open air structure to replace the aging inverted pyramid.
"Here we are today, and the Lens has been voted down. You got your vote, thank you very much," said Fred Whaley, chairman for the Concerned Citizens of St. Petersburg group.
RECAP: Results, reactions from St. Petersburg primary
Sixty-three percent of voters across the city voted "YES" to stop the Lens project. Many Stop the Lens supporters expected victory all along, but admit they were surprised by the strong message sent by voters.
POLL: What do you think the city should do when it comes to the pier?
"We just didn't know how high it would be. We were all hoping, hoping, hoping for 60 percent. That would have been a mandate, and we're over that. That's astounding," said Lorraine Margeson, a longtime Lens opponent who is running for city council.
Other Lens opponents were equally as thrilled.
"It's been there a long time," said Bud Karins. "There is no reason to demolish it. In fact, it should be open today."
"If we're going to lose our beloved pier, we need to lose it to something better than a 12-foot sidewalk," said Carol Gray.
The city and voters must now come together to decide what to do next. Organizers here have already set up a telephone voting system and hope to work with the 8/28 Alliance to decide on how to proceed with St. Pete's waterfront.

Tubb's Final Finish - bore conditioner. These are .243/6mm bullets that have the abrasive material on them that go from course to fine. They are currently loaded in 6mm Remington brass, but if you want the bullets I will pull them, package them, and send them to you. I just decided to not use them since my 6mm's shoot so well already.
Remington Model 700 firing pin spring assembly. It is the J-lock assembly that I took out of a young lads rifle and put a new firing pin assembly in. If someone would want one, or would like it just for the parts, shoot me a PM.

Hiding water bottles along your training route can lead to disaster (which bush was that again?). Instead of playing hide-and-seek with your hydration, pull on the Nathan HPL #028 Hydration Vest and run with all the water you need right on your back. This featherlight vest was designed for marathoners and ultra runners who needed storage and water but couldn't afford to haul around more than a few extra ounces. Thankfully the HPL #028 weighs in at just five ounces, has pockets for your nutrition and ultralight layers, and the back pocket can hold up to a 1.5 liter bladder. For runners particularly sensitive to the feel of materials, the synthetic mesh is soft, smooth, and highly flexible for comfort.
- Mesh body material allows excess heat and moisture to easily move away from your body and ultra-soft perimeter binding eliminates edges that could cause chafing
- Side compression straps allow you to tighten this vest so it fits closer to your body
- Mesh back pocket holds up to a 1.5 liter bladder or lightweight layers like a jacket and gloves
- Front accessory pockets hold gels, sunglasses, or a small hand bottle
- Reflective detailing increases your visibility at dusk or dawn when light is low

So this does or doesn't come with a bladder? It's not clear...
The description/name is a bit deceiving. The vest does not come with a bladder. It's designed to hold a bladder and/or water bottler, but all you get is the vest.
