Associated Press Release
By KELLI KENNEDY and BRENDAN FARRINGTON
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida Democratic leaders want Gov. Rick Scott to veto the state budget or call a special session after the Legislature adjourned without passing an expansion of the state's Medicaid plan.
House Democratic Leader Perry Thurston said some low-income Floridians are not benefiting from the budget.
In an unusual alliance, Scott, Senate Republicans, Democrats, Florida hospitals, health advocates and a diverse mix of business and labor groups all supported a bill that would have drawn down more than $50 billion from the federal government over the next decade. That would have allowed an estimated 1.1 million low-income Floridians to purchase private insurance.
But the Florida House leaders refused to consider that proposal, saying they didn't want to take funds tied to President Barack Obama's health care plan.

Renovation Photos: The view from left
Our tour yesterday allowed us to see the field from several vantage points in left field. Here's a glimpse:
Here's what the field looks like from the old JumboTron platform, which is being transformed into an outdoor bar. Yes, you're right behind the left field fountains and have an amazing view of the field! Now we turn to your left and take a look at CrownVision from our perch in left center.
Next we look at the field from inside the Royals Hall of Fame. What a view!
Finally, we step out into sections 104, 105, and 106, which are Outfield Box sections located in front of the Hall of Fame building.

I watched my first major league game at the K. Nice to see the old girl getting some love. I'm looking forward to seeing the changes in June during the I-70 series!
Yes it's looking better w/ every update. Can't wait to try out the fountain seats. Is the back of the scoreboard going to be painted like before?

Arrowhead Mills Peanut Butters
MaraNatha Almond Butters and Peanut Butters
Whole Foods private label
Trader Joe's private label
Kroger private label
Safeway private label
The FDA has a full list of brands and products affected on their website.

My dad applied for an elk tag, intending to do points-only, but he got a tag in the mail. He's planning on going out next year, so he was going to get the point to use for that draw.
He said he contacted Colorado Fish and Game and was told that he could get a refund, but they wouldn't give him the point.
Does that sound right or is there some way he can get the point?

statement belts
Look of the Week: Statement Belts to Elevate Your Look
Belts are an essential piece in the modern female wardrobe. They easily elevate ordinary looks by creating shape, supplying texture, and adding color.
Still, to many, $100+ is a bit much to spend on a belt. I beg to differ. I've always believed it's smart to invest in quality accessories that you'll use over and over, for years to come. After all, ladies, how many times have you said to yourself, "I'd have to wear a belt with it."? (Not necessarily a bad thing!)
Get the most out of that hip-hugger with a fabulous statement belt -- here are the top seven currently on our radar.

Yep, everything the article says is true. Plenty of people are taking painkillers, drugs to control their split personalities and bi polar illnesses. Probably the same kind of stuff that the lunatic at Sandy Hook was on. They should not be behind the wheel. Unfortunately, the people in power want to take away my freedom to smoke a cigarette in my own backyard. Priorities are pretty screwed up when the government is running the show!

Made in the Shade by Arbonne! It gets darker as you get hotter! That means, put it on and...go to the gym, blow dry your hair, go outside!You get a natural looking tan and it has SPF so you can use it as sunscreen. I ALWAYS bring this with me on vacation and you get exceptionally dramatic results. LOVE LOVE LOVE

Interesting recommendations, surprised Lancomes bronzer didn't make the list. It smells great and I've been using it on and off for years. Coppertone is another good lotion that leaves no streak if you reub it on evenly.
by Lani702 Friday, November 2, 2012 at 07:01PM Report as inappropriate
I believe all self tanners are going to leave a streak or two here and there but there are definitely some that are way better than others. I suggest to try at leaste 5 different brands and find the one that best compliments your skin tone. Also, taking advice from here can get you through them a little quicker and may save a little money too in the end!

I'm all for offering workers incentives, but my guess is this latest stunt is as much about getting ink as it is about getting workers to get inked.
Rapid Realty, a real estate company in New York, is offering its lower-paid employees a huge 15 percent raise on their commissions if they are willing to get a tattoo of the company's logo anywhere on their body. I'm not sure what message that sends, but it certainly doesn't say work hard and you'll reap the rewards. And since tattoos are difficult to remove, it sort of implies your sworn allegiance to the brand. There's nothing wrong with wanting workers to spend their careers in your company, but wouldn't a bumper sticker or silicone wristband suffice?
And who's in charge of verifying tattoos placed in, ahem, private areas? And what purpose does a covered tattoo serve anyway for promoting a company? What happens if things don't work out? I guess the worker's gonna need that extra 15 percent to pay for the tattoo removal down the road.
Incentives should be fun ways to motivate a staff to do well or stay with a company longer. I prefer options that allow anyone to attain the award through accomplishment. Tattoos are just not my thing, so I would have no way to ink that deal. Even if I had a stellar quarter, I wouldn't even get an extra quarter because of my personal no-tat policy. That's not right. On the other hand, an ABC News story says you can also receive the bonus by doing charity work, producing benchmarks or mentoring a new employee. Now that's more like it.
At one publication I worked for, the editor would hand out a series of quarterly awards that anyone could win. Depending on the category, you could get a $100 or $200 gift card. One of the prizes that I cashed in on was for what he called the "catch of the quarter," meaning the biggest or most unusual mistake that got caught before hitting the presses.
Incentives aren't new by any means. In 1914, Henry Ford famously offered a $5 per day pay incentive to attract top talent, which was a huge amount of money at the time.
But workers weren't guaranteed a fiver; $2.66 of the amount came from a profit-sharing plan that went to folks who swore off "unwholesome" activities such as drinking and gambling. Also, only single men and women were eligible as well as married men whose wives didn't work outside the home. It wasn't exactly a level playing field, and I won't even get into the morality police aspect of it all.
As I've said, I prefer my incentives to be open to everybody without gimmicks, like what Bart Lorang did with his tech company, FullContact. He offers his workers a $7,500 bonus to use their vacation time and not work during that time. Software company SAS has a college scholarship program for the children of workers in the company. And snack-maker Bridgetown Natural Foods pays its workers to attend quarterly healthy-eating and shopping seminars.
These are the kinds of incentives that should be getting the ink in the press.

I considered running a HOB filter - which I already have but cant use due to the distance between the tank and wall - I actually have the AC 110.... I would really like to use this!!!
Anyway, I was considering picking up a Fluval U3, i do have some real estate inside the tank that I can dedicate to the filter, and it is also a pretty good spot since I can get to it easily for cleaning.
Has anyone used these internal filters in a reef - Are they any good?? Can I throw water ever type of carbon I want in these or does it need to be fluval branded carbon?
Otherwise does anyone have any recomemndations about how to nudge a 40 breeder about 6 inches awayf rom the wall to fit my AC110?

Finance sector illuminates the road to Low Carbon Development in India
- Date
- 14 May 2010
- Watch the video webcasts from the event.
Speaking at a joint event hosted by the The Climate Group, the Indian Banking Association and WWF, Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, Subir Gokarn, said that sustainability was close to his heart and he believed that "financial inclusion & sustainability went hand-in-hand". Quoting the example of global pension funds such as Calpers, that find a business model is more robust and capable of generating long-term returns if it follows sustainability practices, he said that it is "difficult to establish empirically, but a fair bit of evidence of long-term correlation exists".
Gokarn went on to say that there was no inconsistency between good financial practices and sustainability, and that it was up to financial institutions, plus intermediaries, to recognize and incorporate this notion into the way in which they allocate their funds.
"A key message is that there may appear to be a trade-off of the kind that if a company promotes sustainability, it has to accept a discount in financial terms. That proposition is now being challenged by historical evidence & current occurrences. The ability of a banking system to combine effective risk mitigation, risk management, sector diversification with considerations of good practices in energy, environment, social and community relationship is widening. More and more companies are becoming conscious of good practices that they have to perform, not because of any altruistic notion but because it's also good business", he added.
During extensive discussions throughout the day, it emerged that while a global carbon market would drive significant change in investment, action need not wait, in spite of limited policy incentives. It was time for the finance sector to implement its own policies – for example, a levy on carbon intensive sectors that do not meet minimum standards that could be put into a low carbon fund.
Renewable energy is an exciting new field which was analyzed in detail. Vivek Mehra, MD, Sustainable Investment Bank, Yes Bank, noted that the Indian Government's solar mission could provide an important framework for investment. "It's really important that policies drive the development of a new, sustainable industry, and not just incentivise short term project development", he said.
The discussion highlighted the need for smart policies in India that enable the market to evolve. Simply granting large subsidies for low carbon projects runs the risk of business models being built around these and is not attractive to investors looking for long-term financially stable businesses. It is also important that India does not create a false market by insisting on local supplies of solar panels (and other technologies) – sometimes foreign competition is healthy and can help ensure that India develops competitively priced, high quality products.
The other major thrust area in India's battle against climate change is undoubtedly energy efficiency. Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) provide a huge opportunity for India to realise the potential of energy efficiency, but more needs to be done to strengthen the market through better approaches to verifying auditors, building capacity and credibility of ESCOs, and ensuring the financial products are available to support this. The Indian Government's energy efficiency mission will be releasing their strategy in the next few weeks that will detail policy incentives.
The final session was devoted to sustainable lending guidelines for financial Institutions. During the discussion on the Equator Principles, it emerged that such global guidelines align with regulatory requirements in India. Many Indian banks have processes that look at sustainability issues before making investment decisions, even though they have not formally adopted the Equator Principles.

Both teams are being pushed, so WWE is going to try to protect all the participants as much as possible. Since there are lingering rumors of a new Wyatt Family member being introduced, there are more leaning towards them picking up a tainted victory at the pay per view.

(MILTIARY TIMES) -- Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair, soon to face a military trial on forcible sodomy and other misconduct charges, has mounted a double-barrelled counteroffensive more commonplace in high-profile civilian defense than in the military.
In the courtroom, Sinclair's legal team has filed motions accusing the government of seizing emails on his government computers in violation of his constitutional rights and exerting illegal pressure to prosecute Sinclair. Lawyers representing Sinclair asked a military judge to force prosecutors to turn over any emails related to the case sent or received by former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta.
Outside court, his public relations team has launched a website called sinclairinnocence.com and Twitter account @SinclairFriends that have sought to shift attention from Sinclair onto the prosecution and Sinclair's main accuser.
In an interview with Army Times, Richard Scheff, the lead defense attorney and a former federal prosecutor, acknowledged Sinclair's teams have been aggressive.
"It is an aggressive defense, but appropriately so," said Scheff, a former federal prosecutor in Pennsylvania and chair of the law firm Montgomery McCracken. "We don't file a motion, we don't take a position unless we feel factually or legally we ought to win."
Upon the start of Sinclair's court-martial July 16 at Fort Bragg, N.C., Scheff intends to further respond to the charges in the case, which include forcible sodomy, indecent acts, violating orders and adultery. (Alcohol and pornography possession charges against him were dropped.)
The case is also noteworthy for the amount of brass it is expected to attract in the jury box. The pool from which the jury will be selected includes generals with one to three stars.
At an evidentiary hearing for Sinclair in November, prosecutors presented testimony about his conduct with five women who were not his wife, including officers who served under his direct command. The charges involve allegedactivities when he was in Afghanistan, Iraq, Germany and at installations in the U.S.
Sinclair was deputy commander in charge of logistics and support for the 82nd Airborne Division in Afghanistan before being relieved in May during the criminal investigation. He has been on special assignment since then at Fort Bragg.
The female captain at the heart of the case said she carried on a three-year sexual relationship with Sinclair, a father of two. The admission to adultery, a crime in the military, could end her career. She testified that when she tried to end the relationship, Sinclair threatened her and, on two occasions, physically forced her to perform oral sex.
A 27-year Army veteran, Sinclair faces life in prison if convicted on the most serious offenses. It's rare for an Army general to face court-martial. There have been two cases in recent years.
Scheff intends to show that Sinclair and his accuser shared a "purely consensual," though inappropriate, relationship, which ultimately fell apart.
Watershed moment
The defense witness list includes character witnesses and high-ranking generals. Among them, Lt. Gen. James Huggins, Sinclair's former commander, is expected to testify. Others who may be called to testify include Gen. Dan Allyn, commander of Forces Command; Maj. Gen. Jeffrey Colt, Fort Bragg deputy commander; Lt. Gen. Peter Vangjel, Army inspector general; Lt. Gen. Curtis Scaparrotti, director of the Joint Staff; and Lt. Gen. David Quantock, the provost marshal general.
"Everybody I've talked to about this case says they don't remember any instance where a general officer has been court-martialed in a case like this, under these circumstances," Scheff said. "It's a unique set of circumstances."
In June, the Pentagon published a report showing a rise in known sexual assault cases, and suggesting as many 26,000 military service members faced unwanted sexual contact but might not have reported it.
Meanwhile, the military saw a string of embarrassing cases over the past year, including Air Force commanders who granted clemency to two officers convicted of sexual assault, and Sinclair's case. Attention and pressure in Congress over whether the military's handling of sexual assault is effective culminated in the Senate Armed Services Committee rejecting legislation proposed by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., which would have sidelined military commanders in sexual assault cases. The committee approved a plan that subjects commanders to a review process if they choose not to prosecute a sexual assault case.
President Obama's recent statements on sexual assault in the military have affected other courts-martial, according to published reports. In May, Obama said, "If we find out somebody's engaging in this, they've got to be held accountable - prosecuted, stripped of their positions, court-martialed, fired, dishonorably discharged. Period," he said.
According to published reports, Obama's statement led a Navy judge to rule that two sailors accused of sexual assault can't be punitively discharged if found guilty. The decision is now under appeal.
In court, Scheff argued Sinclair would not be able to receive a fair trial. He cited Obama's comments and the promotion of an Air Force lieutenant general, Susan J. Helms, to four-star general that has been blocked by U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., asanother example, the Fayetteville Observer reported. Helms is reportedly under fire for overturning an Air Force officer's sexual assault conviction, something she was allowed to do under military law after reviewing the evidence against him.
Scheff, in the interview with Army Times, noted that Army Chief of Staff Gen. Ray Odierno said combating sexual assault and harassment within the ranks is the Army's "No. 1 priority." The current climate surrounding military sexual assault, Scheff said, is "white hot."
"Can Gen. Sinclair get a fair trial under these circumstances? Can a panel of general officers fairly decide this case, given that they have been directly told by Gen. Odierno this is the number-one priority in the military and they're personally accountable for it?" he said.
If the government loses, it might bolster the impression that it cannot effectively prosecute sexual assault cases.
"My personal view, which may or may not be borne out, is the stakes are high for the Army, because no matter what the result is, the Army will look bad in this case," Scheff said.

WASHINGTON – A simple test can detect early signs of heart disease, but insurance will not cover it.
Dr. Allen Taylor, chief of cardiology at Medstar Georgetown University Hospital, calls it "a mammogram for the heart."
The test includes a heart scan that looks for calcium deposits in coronary arteries, and Taylor says it is the best test available to check for early signs of heart disease — the leading cause of death among Americans.
"The test is a very simple CT scan of the heart that takes 5 minutes to complete, involving only holding your breath for 10 seconds and using a low dose of radiation — about the same as a mammogram," he says.
Taylor describes the coronary calcium scan as safe, effective and inexpensive. But it is not on the government's list of necessary health screenings, like mammograms and colonoscopies, which means insurers are not required to cover costs.
And that has Dr. Warren Levy, the head of the largest cardiology practice in the region, very frustrated. Levy, the chief medical officer of Virginia Heart, says a lot of money is spent to cover cancer screenings, but there is little, if any, support for preventative tests for heart disease.
"We don't reimburse anyone to screen for cardiovascular disease. It's a major flaw in our health care system," he says, adding that "there is a lot of published data out there about how many lives we could save with simple screening procedures that are available today."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says cardiovascular diseases – such as heart disease and stroke — are responsible for more than one-third of all deaths in the United States. Treatment for the diseases accounts for about $1 of every $6 spent on health care in the country.
"There is a clear disconnect between the cost of the problem, the prevalence of the problem and the amount of money that we will invest in preventing it," says Medstar Georgetown's Allen Taylor.
He says that a disease this expensive and common needs support for better screening.
Medicare covers heart scans starting at age 65, and many hospitals provide them for younger adults at or below cost — usually between $100 to $200. While health insurers won't cover these preventative screenings, some life insurance companies use screening results to help calculate premiums.
Only one state, Texas, requires insurers to cover heart scans for patients who have certain risk factors for cardiovascular illnesses.
Why Texas?
Taylor says a member of the state Legislature had heart disease, and that led to an emotional push for action.

(Hey y'all - I'll only be posting the ladies' preview today since it's long weekend here in the US for Memorial Day. I'll be back late Sunday for the opening day of Roland Garros. In the meantime, enjoy the preview!!!)
The Queen is dead!
Well okay, more like retired away at a tiny Belgian village for ex-tennis ballers. And, although she wouldn't have been a clear-cut favorite as say Rafael Nadal, four-time defending champion Justine Henin's unexpected retirement this month opened up the ladies' draw nicely for someone to grab the mantle and run like hell. Who are the main contenders for the crown? Let's take a look...
With Justine's retirement complete, Maria "Shriek"apova moved into the penthouse of the WTA Tour. The Russian earned her third Grand Slam at the Australian Open and went on a 17-match win streak until she was beaten at Indian Wells. The clay surface, where movement is an ingredient for success, is not a friend to the 6'2" Maria who once even described herself as a "cow on ice" when stepping onto the slippery stuff. But she made the semifinals of Roland Garros last year nursing a bum shoulder and won her first ever clay-court title at Amelia Island this year. And with her trademark mental strength and tenacity, never count her out. Plus, a win here would give the Russian glamourpuss a career Grand Slam at the tender age of 21.
Someone who never counts Maria out is Serena Williams (which is probably why she's beaten the Russian the last four times they've met.) She's the only baller left on the women's side who's actually won in Paris so experience, including seven other Grand Slams, is on her side. And, next to Maria, ReRe has been the best baller on tour winning three titles to date in Bangalore and Tier 1's in Miami and Charleston. The 26-year old owns arguably the best serve on the tour, powerful groundies, and superior strength. Add to the mix her incredible movement and ReRe looks to be the odds-on favorite now with Justine out of the picture.
Jelena Jankovic is one baller who's probably not sad to see Justine retired: the Serb never defeated the Belgian in nine attempts including the semifinals of last year's French Open. However, she's beaten everyone else in big matches including Maria and the Williams sisters and possesses the best backhand down-the-line in the women's game. Jelena is a fluid mover whose counter-punching style will serve her well the next two weeks. Her mental game, however, is still suspect and her serve still soft (though it's not as much of an impediment on the slow clay.) But if she's able to stay mentally tough in the key moments, she may very well reach her first ever Grand Slam final.
Jelena's sister Serb, Ana Ivanovic, is the new pin-up girl on the tour. But this beauty has a beast of a game including a strong, if sometimes inconsistent, serve and blowtorch forehand. Ana made her first Grand Slam final appearance here last year and followed that up with the finals of Australia. That being said, she has struggled with the pressure and expectation recently, falling in the opening round of Rome. But she has the ability to shut out bad matches with brilliant returns-to-form so expect a great showing in Paris.
Other lady ballers to keep your eyes peeled for:
Vera Zvonareva - Another baller from the Russian army, this 23-year old has already reached four finals this year, winning one on clay in Prague. She's another great mover that possesses tenacity and gritty determination but is prone to mental fits and crying on the court (no crying in tennis Vera!). If she keeps her head on straight, a career-making tournament isn't out of the question.
Alize Cornet - The 2007 French Open junior champion has been on a tear since reaching the finals of Acapulco (losing to Italy's Flavia Pennetta.) The 18-year old followed up that achievement with the semifinals of Amelia Island and Charleston and the finals of Rome. At only 5'8" and 132 pounds, a stiff wind could seemingly knock this Frenchie off her game, but not likely on her favored surface.
Victoria Azarenka - Another teen queen at 18-years old, Victoria has been quietly building a solid season so far. After reaching the final of Gold Coast to open the season, the Belarusian made the finals of Prague and the semifinals of Berlin. Victoria has a powerful baseline game, but her movement is still raw. Regardless, with a nice draw and some dumb luck, this up-and-comer could have a breakthrough tournament.

I hope Jelena or Ana will win their maiden Grand Slam title!!! And I also hope Serena and Maria lose in third round or so!!! :)ReplyDelete
I had high hopes for an all Serbian final on the women's side...but alas, that won't be. But I bet one of them will be there, and I don't think Ana will fall on nerves this time. My vote is for a Safina/Ivanovic final.ReplyDelete
I think this should be a great opportunity for Safina because it looks to me like most of the action is in the bottom half of the draw. I just don't trust her to come through; all I trust her to do is be inconsistent—pretty much like her brother, but not as good!ReplyDelete
In that top half, I think you have to watch out for Kuznetsova. Zvonareva can make some noise there, too.
Great breakdown Rich! I think the women's side is wide open at the moment with Justine gone, so really any of the top women can win. Should be exciting!ReplyDelete
BTW, I'm rooting for Jelena! :)
i don't have a lot of faith in safina - she's soooo inconsistent. i like the young up-and-comers over her because they have ZERO to lose and can just go for their shotsReplyDelete
Don't forget Dementieva. Former finalist, great form, improved serving and pretty good draw. ;)ReplyDelete

Birds need about as much sleep as a toddler, about 10-12 hrs. nightly. Bird Snugglies offer your bird with a dark, quiet place free from family distractions and other pets.
Did you know that a sleepy bird is not only grumpy & nipp? Lack of sleep affects appetite & digestive regulation, causes havoc with hormones. Long days and lack of sleep can lead to prolonged molting & feather plucking. Your pet bird needs 11-12 hours of sleep a night.
Most pet birds need more sleep than an adult human. Did you know that some of the most common bird behavior problems including biting, screaming and feather picking are caused by lack of sleep?
Think about it....
How do you feel when you've gone several nights without a good nights sleep? I'm generally very grumpy and prone to snapping back at my loved ones. I tend to feel anxious and just have an overall achy feeling, too. Same with your bird.
Most pet birds need to be "in bed" around dusk of their native enviroment and awaken at dawn. By "in bed" we mean a dark, quiet, cozy area where the normal evening disruptions of television, dogs barking and excited kids won't keep the bird awake. Even LED lights can disrupt sleep.
While it may seem impossible to provide such an environment if you have kids and other pets or love to watch the "Night Show" you can help your bird get a good nights sleep by locating the bird cage in a quiet bird room where you can shut down the lights. Other popular alternatives to encourage parrots sleeping are to use a sleep cage with a cover, offering bird snugglies or using a cage cover.
It's not wise to judge how much sleep your parrot needs by listening to the wild birds outside, unless you live in a tropical, rainforest environment. Robins and Blue Jays are native to completely different habitats and have different sleep requirements.
10 hrs. in a darkened room. Linda S. Rubin, genetic consultant for National Cockatiel Society, suggests that Cockatiels may benefit from lights on a timer and /or a cage cover to insure they are geting a good nights sleep.
Sleep requirements vary according to species and what their native habitat is. But, as a rule of thumb, insure that your Macaw recieves 10 - 12 hours of uninterrupted sleep each night

None of these suprise me much. They're all awesome trends
There are many reasons that we love summer: the best action movies of the year arrive in theaters, there are all sorts of awesome musical festivals, and it's considered socially acceptable to roam around in a bikini top. However, know what our fave thing about the return of summer is? The clothes. Okay, we know such a revelation isn't exactly jaw breaking, but in spirit of all things mercury rising, here are our five things you need for summer.
1. Cropped Top
The cropped top is a cool kid staple from the 90's, but this season's iteration is even more fierce than the ones from the Clueless generation. Why? Because we're no longer pairing our cropped tops with crunchy hair and scrunchies. Instead, it's all about doing cropped in an undeniably sleek way and incorporating ladylike elements, such as…
2. High-Waisted Shorts
Denim is undeniably casual, but we are definitely fans of the resurgence of high-waisted denim. Why? Because it's still cool, but it also gives you an hourglass figure. Plus, as we already mentioned, it looks chic when paired with a feminine and flirty cropped top. Of course, you can't have a summer outfit without…
3. Chunky Printed Heels
It shouldn't come as a surprise that this heel is all sorts of hot. Not only does the chunky heel and hidden platform make it easy to add height to your frame without sacrificing comfort, but this shape is definitely on trend. Of course, we also like the fact that the patterned sole adds some much needed kick to any ensemble without any extra effort on your part.
4. Printed Scarf
You already know that tribal prints continue to be all sorts of stylish, but there's another reason we love this scarf for summer: it's lightweight and as such, will add some pop to your outfit without causing you to overheat. Plus, we've all been out and suddenly realized that it's kind of chilly thanks to a light breeze. The easiest thing to do in this situation? Wrap the scarf around you and continue to have a fabulous night with the girls.
5. Luxe Shades
A good pair of sunnies keep the sun out of your eyes, prevent ocular damage, and allows you to hide any evidence of a late night. But, there's an even more important reason to fall in love with these designer-inspired sunglasses: they're so trendy it hurts and the circular frame will keep you looking stylish even if you're only heading to the grocery store.
What are your must-have items for summer? Anything we missed?

Tempe, AZ (Sports Network) - Buster Posey drove in the go-ahead run in the top
of the ninth inning to lift the San Francisco Giants to a 5-4 win over the Los
Angeles Angels of Anaheim on Sunday.
Hunter Pence drew a walk, then stole second before coming around on Posey's
base hit for the Giants, who rallied for three runs in the eighth to tie the
game. Starter Barry Zito allowed just on eruns on six hits while striking out
four over five innings.
Josh Hamilton drove in a pair of runs, while Mike Trout and Howie Kendrick
added an RBI apiece for the Angels, who saw starter Jason Vargas give up just
one runs on five hits while striking out five over six-plus innings.

Denver, CO (Sports Network) - Matt Duchene totaled a goal and three assists,
and the Colorado Avalanche used a four-goal second-period burst to put a pair
of monumental Chicago streaks to rest in a 6-2 victory over the Blackhawks at
Pepsi Center.
Coming into Friday, Chicago had gone 24 games from the start of this
truncated season with at least one point (21-0-3) and also won a franchise-
record 11 consecutive outings.
But Duchene, John Mitchell, Ryan O'Reilly and Jamie McGinn all lit the lamp to
turn a tie game after one period into a 5-1 advantage and the hosts cruised
from there.
PA Parenteau and Paul Stastny added a score and two helpers each for the
Avalanche, who won for just the second time in their last eight.
Semyon Varlamov made 31 saves for his first win in three starts.
Jonathan Toews and Bryan Bickell scored for the Blackhawks, who hadn't lost in
regulation since a 6-1 setback at home to Nashville on Mar. 25, 2012 -- an
incredible stretch of 30 games.
Corey Crawford gave up five goals on 19 shots in 40 minutes to suffer the
defeat. Ray Emery stopped 11-of-12 chances in the third.

Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.
Genesis 27:3 (NKJV)
Nice bucks. The whitetail sure is fancy looking.
Thanks! Last year was my buddies first year in business as a taxidermist so I took the deer to him to help get him started. I let him keep it until last week to keep it in his showroom and it went from just a shoulder Mount to this. I can't complain any since he didn't charge for the extras. He did a great job on it. That's for sure
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.
Genesis 27:3 (NKJV)
Its always nice having a friend as a taxi if you're horn hunting. What did that whitetail score at?
Have you ever tried the reservation?
He scored 169 1/2 gross. I don't remember what the net was... a little over 155 if I remember right. Quite a few deductions. I haven't tried the reservation yet and most likely won't. A buddy of mine is going to bow hunt it this year though. He says it looks like some good ground and actually now that I have moved to Kansas it wouldn't be much more expensive than an out of state archery tag I don't think. The issue is that you don't have quite as much land to hunt on the res, but its all blocked together instead of blocks here and there like the public land is in SD for the most part. Positives and negatives I guess, but if my buddy shoots a big one up there this year I may be tempted to go up there next year! I guess it also depends which reservation you are referring to. I think he is going to the Lower Brule if I remember right, but don't quote me on that. I think each one has its own rules.
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.
Genesis 27:3 (NKJV)
I was thinking about the res that is in the northern central part of the state (I don't know the name off hand, but I think some of it spills into the ND side). The rifle tag was somewhere in the $400+ range though. That is a heck of a lot more than the $20 fee I'm used to paying for resident hunting in ND. Maybe next year I'll give it a try. The season was pretty long and it looked as though there was plenty of land to roam around on. The only draw back besides the price is that I've heard there aren't hardly any muleys worth taking a second look at. But if I'm not mistaken, the tag is good for either whitetail or muley. A guy has to do something if he wants a rifle tag these days...especially if you are trying for a muley tag in ND. I guess the other thing to consider is that EHD hit that area a couple years back or so.
Its almost as though I've already had my "good ol' days" of hunting and its all downhill up here.
I have a spot or 2 in Wyoming that you can draw tags pretty easily for. Let me know if interested.
I never looked into the reservation hunts. Never thought of that route.
Cant wait to get out there! wish I lived closer to be able to do some scouting. But living in Wisconsin makes scouting tough to do, besides google earth scouting!
I'm becoming quite interested in broadening my hunting territory. SD was my first choice just because of the geographical appealing aspect, but WY is more my style of terrain.
that's an awesome deer. far bigger than anything I have ever gotten. PM me if interested in Wyoming. But I doubt the areas I hunt hold deer close to that. I saw one last fall that MIGHT have made 150"-155". We did shoot one that scored 143". What did that buck score? He looks huge in the picture.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) - One week after District of Columbia Department of Health inspectors passed a grocery store and allowed it to re-open to the public, 9 Wants to Know photographed mouse droppings and flies while examining shelves and refrigerated racks.
"The smell hits you right when you walk in, of rodent urine," said customer Dave Magee whose original complaint resulted in a temporary closure at the store. "It smells almost like kitty litter."
9 Wants to Know reviewed temporary closures at five area food establishments, including restaurants, suspended for violations including bad smells, mice, roaches and/or licensing issues last week.
The grocery store Magee complained about, Avenue Supermarket at 5010 New Hampshire Avenue NW, was shuttered by inspectors for outdated meat, mice droppings, no hot water, and flies.
The store passed a District inspection two days later.
On Wednesday, after it passed inspection, we photographed flies on a package of bacon, under the wire rack in the meat counter, on a tub in the dairy, and in the produce section.
Customers say they rely on the store as the only market within walking distance and they want to believe it is safe.
"Every time I go in there, someone is cleaning something," said customer Ron Harden.
" I hope you're not, like, shutting it down," said a store employee when she saw us observing the conditions.
Across town, a week after the District OK'd Warehouse Supermarket, 1918 14th Street SE, to re-open, we photographed flies in the produce section and in refrigerated racks.
Inspectors closed Warehouse last week citing flies, thawed frozen foods, food at unsafe temperatures and in spoiled and molded condition.
Inspectors closed the popular Convention Center area café at United House of Prayer, Saint's Paradise at 601 m. St. NW for insects and gross unsanitary conditions.
In Adam's Morgan at Sawah Diner, 2222 and 2224 18th St NW, inspectors reported roach infestation in the basement and 17 other violations resulting in closure.
Health department records indicate this wasn't the first time for Sawah.
A May inspection report indicates inspectors found mouse dropping throughout the restaurant including the shelves and where restaurant wash the dishes and cookware.
23 violations, including roaches and a license violation, resulted in a closure at Mama's Kitchen, 1208 Maple View Place SE.
The restaurants and the grocery stores all passed re-inspections and are back in business. We'll let you know if inspectors return to those grocery stores after seeing what we saw.
If you know of health threats, corruption, or government waste, contact 9 Wants to Know at email@example.com.

Car insurance is one of those things that everyone needs and everyone wants to pay less for and the single most effective way to do this is to shop around. Car insurance rates often change, and the insurance provider who gave you the best rate in the past, may no longer offer you the best rate today.
Kanetix.ca shops the market for you. No one else covers as much of the market as we do, and we make it quicker and easier for you to get quotes and your coverage from the top providers all in one place. Compare car insurance quotes today for a better price.
Save today and get quotes for: Alberta car insurance, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and PEI.
No matter where you live in Canada, you must have auto insurance, and even though each province and territory establishes their own required minimum insurance coverages, there are many similarities across Canada about Canadian car insurance in general:
If you're shopping for a car, you can easily compare quotes for multiple vehicles, side by side. It's never been easier to see how rates differ between vehicles.
Parts of your insurance policy may have deductibles. A deductible is the portion of an insurance claim you agree to pay. Your insurance company covers the remaining cost. Your deductibles play a part in how your auto insurance rates are calculated. Depending on how much financial responsibility you take on in the event of a claim, your rates will reflect your commitment. Take on more responsibility (i.e. increase your deductibles) and your rates will lower, take on less responsibility (i.e. decrease your deductibles) and your rates will increase.
Whether you own or lease your vehicle, it's important to compare rates regularly to ensure you're not overpaying for your coverage. At minimum, you should compare rates annually at renewal. You should also shop around when life changes: you get married, move, buy a new car, add drivers to your policy (like your teen), get a ticket, are involved in a collision, change jobs or retire. These are all times when you should be shopping around to see if there's a cheaper car insurance rate available.
*60% of Kanetix customers in Ontario who participated in the survey said Kanetix helped them identify an average savings amount of $776.58 (December 1, 2015 - February 29, 2016) on their car insurance. The cited amount represents the average difference between the best quote obtained at www.kanetix.ca and the current premium amount of participants in the survey. The savings amount varies by individual and does not constitute a guarantee; in each individual case, the difference may be smaller or greater than the savings amount cited.

Every season, no matter the season, has its own set of driving hazards. Whether it's spring, summer, fall or winter, these driving tips will help you get to where you want to go, safely.
Spring may be in the air, but there are often storms that are reminiscent of winter. Check out the 'Snow, Ice and Winter Storms' section for in-depth coverage in how to drive in winter weather, plus:
Day or night turn on your headlights. Spring temperatures can change in the blink of an eye resulting in misty, foggy conditions that can reduce your visibility. And while foggy conditions are common in spring, so too is the occasional spring blizzard; don't be too quick to ditch the winter car safety kit in your car, or switch from your winter tires to your summer set.
April showers, may bring May flowers, but it also often brings wet slippery roads. Drive to the conditions and you'll get to where you want to go safely. As you would in winter, slow down and leave extra distance between your vehicle and the one ahead of you. It takes longer to stop when conditions are wet and slippery. Also, where possible, drive in the middle lanes; water tends to pool in the curb lanes and could lead to hydroplaning.
Foul weather isn't the only factor to watch for; warm weather means there will be more motorcyclists, cyclists and pedestrians out and about. Watch for pedestrians and share the road with all users.
Lastly, your car has been through a lot in the winter and is probably in need of some attention. Take it in for a spring tune up to your risk of driving problems this spring.
After a long bitter winter and a slow wet spring, you may be ready to hit the road again, but be careful: according to the Canada Safety Council, more fatalities occur on Canadian roads during the summer months than at any other time of year. Whether you're heading out for the day, going to the cottage or taking a road trip with the family, remember to put safety first.
You'd think that summer driving would be the safest, when in fact the reverse is true. Summer brings increased traffic to the roads and highways. With more drivers on the road, construction, motorcyclists, cyclists, and pedestrians to watch for, don't let the clear weather fool you into thinking that summer driving is easy driving.
Stay safer this summer and: don't drink and drive; always wear your seatbelt; don't drive when fatigued; and tune out the distractions.
The dog days of summer are over, and there's a chill in the air. Weather conditions in the fall, like spring, can be unpredictable. A warm, sunny day can turn dark, cold and rainy in no time. Mist and fog can reduce your visibility, and the first snow of the winter isn't unlikely. Give yourself plenty of space between you and the cars around you and remember to drive to the conditions.
The leaves may be changing colour and are beautiful to admire, but keep your eyes on the road and your attention focused. Fall brings the first frost of the season so beware of slippery conditions. And, if the temperature is hovering around freezing, then approach bridges and overpasses with caution as these tend to ice up quicker than the road.
When the leaves fall remember that they are a hazard on their own; they can hide potholes or other road hazards, and when they're wet, can be as slippery as any ice-covered road.
Ice is a major concern for anyone driving in extreme cold weather conditions. Not only does it create a smooth surfacing that can lead to sliding and loss of vehicular control, but it can also be difficult to detect. When faced with this type of road condition, drive carefully and reduce your speed and allow as much as three car lengths more than normal between yourself and the car ahead of you.
In general, drive slowly and refrain from stepping too heavily on the brakes to avoid skidding. Watch out in particular for black ice. In areas that experience extremely cold weather, melted snow and puddles of water can quickly freeze, particularly when in the shade or on a bridge or overpass. It is called black ice because it can be nearly impossible to see until you're upon it.
Heavy snow creates a driving situation that is a mixed bag of dangerous driving conditions. It diminishes your ability to see, and creates slippery road conditions. At the beginning of snow season, invest in winter or snow tires. This will give the best traction possible for the conditions.
During heavy snowfall, it is safest to avoid driving. If staying off the road is not an option, first clear the car's windows of snow and ice to improve visibility. As with driving in icy conditions, it is important that the distance between cars is at least three car lengths more than normal. When other cars follow too closely, allowed them to pass.
Sleet and freezing rain can affect a your ability to safely manoeuvre your vehicle, and often officials will advise you to avoid driving under these conditions. When driving in these conditions is absolutely necessary, follow safe driving protocols: reduce speed and allow more following distance. Drivers often encounter freezing rain and sleet on bridges and overpasses first and should always exercise extreme caution when driving across them.
If you become stranded during winter storm conditions such as a blizzard, remain in the vehicle until help arrives. To make the car more visible, a brightly coloured ribbon, piece of cloth or towel should be tied to an antenna or outside mirror. An emergency kit that contains water, blankets, rope, a flashlight, and non-perishable foods should be kept in the car for emergencies. Use the additional clothing and blankets to keep warm. If there are no blankets in the car use items such as floor mats or even the seat covers to help keep warm. The car's heater may be used, but it should only be run for ten minutes every hour. When running the heater, keep a window slightly open to help with ventilation. Additionally, the vehicle's exhaust pipe should be kept clear to prevent poisonous gases from entering the car.
Whether it is freezing rain or blizzard-like snowfall, it is important that people drive safely when getting behind the wheel. While it is often best to stay indoors during extreme weather conditions, knowing how to drive for the specific condition goes a long way in keeping one safe while on the road.

Item # SRM0278
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Road Cranksets in stock than that.View Similar Products
SRAM Force BB30 Crankset $0.00
SRAM believes in the BB30 bottom bracket standard. That's why they offer it in their top two cranksets, including this SRAM Force BB30 Crankset. How's this different than their Force GXP Crankset and how is it better? The difference is that it's designed around the BB30 bottom bracket standard which makes use of a 30mm crank spindle and larger bearings that are pressed directly into an oversized shell. You get a lighter and stiffer crank, the bearings are larger and more durable (bigger is better, remember ISIS?), and since the spindle is shorter, there is more ankle and heel clearance between your shiny shoes and your new crankarms.
The carbon fiber arms on the Force cranks are built on a minimalistic aluminum spine that's used to both align the spindle mount and pedal threads during molding and add to the durability out on the road. A carbon spider and alloy chainring bolts further reduce weight. The PowerGlide chain rings that come standard on the Force crank ensure crisp movement of the chain as you switch rings. The gates and ramps on the teeth make quick work of upshifts and downshifts, and they ensure that the sophisticated technology of the Double Tap shifter isn't wasted on a crankset that can't deliver flawless performance. The PowerGlide rings are built with SRAM's "TNT" hard-anodized finish. You'll get more mileage from these rings than any other 10-speed set out there, and thanks to the finish, your shifting and pedaling will be quieter than ever before.
The PowerGlide rings are optimized for use with the Force front derailleur -- you'll find that you can cross-chain to your heart's content when you're in the big chainring without hearing a whit of chain rub. And whether your gearing differential between chainrings is 14t or 16t, you'll get flawless shifting -- that's the one detail that distinguishes the compact Force from every other 50/34 crankset we've ever tried. It shifts as flawlessly as a 53/39 -- a rarity when it comes to compact cranks. Best of all, a SRAM compact crankset doesn't require a special compact-specific front derailleur. You use the same Force front derailleur for the 53/39 as you do for the 50/34.
The SRAM Force BB30 Crankset is available in 170mm, 172.5mm, and 175mm lengths and comes with either 53/39 or 50/34 chainring configurations. Bottom bracket is NOT included.
- Carbon crankarms add stiffness while reducing weight
- Integrated carbon spider eliminates hardware, increases stiffness, and reduces weight
- BB30 bottom bracket utilizes oversized spindle and in-frame bearings for greater stiffness and a 20% weight reduction
- BB30 bottom bracket system provides 300% more ankle clearance

Great value crankset
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I picked this up mostly just because I wanted to change from a standard crankset to a compact, but it ended up being a pretty nice upgrade from what came stock. Shifting is great and it is as stiff as anything I have ridden.
Can a Force BB30 crankset set be used...
Can a Force BB30 crankset set be used with a Red front derailleur? I have a Cervelo bike with a SRAM Red group set and the crankset is a Rotor 53/39 with the BB30. I want to change to a compact 50/34 and so I am looking for the best fit for the components I have.
will this crankset fit my dura ace 7800...
will this crankset fit my dura ace 7800 bb30?

GAINESVILLE, Ga. -- After three months of building, volunteers with Habitat for Humanity returned to their construction site Wednesday morning to find they had been hit by burglars.
Habitat Hall County president Robert Akin said when volunteers returned to work after Christmas break, they noticed the back door of the house was kicked in and a window broken.
Nearly $1600 worth of tools were stolen from the work trailer and most of the copper wiring stripped from the house. Akin estimates the thieves did more than $5000 worth of damage -- a devastating blow for a non-profit organization.
"We'll just have to take the funds we're raising for the next house and replace everything here," Akin said. "Which, in turn, has a ripple effect for the next homeowner."
For homeowner Sherricka Smith, the new Habitat house was her dream come true. The single mother of two girls visits her new home at least once a week.
"When I seen one of the windows broken, I was just so hurt that somebody would do this," she said.
The house is being built by students from Habitat High; a program between Habitat Hall County and local high schools. Akin said more than 100 people have worked on the house.
"It's more than just taking copper and selling it for whatever reason," Akin said. "It's touched a whole community."
Habitat Hall County is looking for tool donations. For more information on how you can help, visit their website or call 678-450-5998.

Artist Mary Drown has always felt the need to make things. Learning how to sew at an early age meant that fabrics always played an important part in her life. Drown completed a City & Guilds Diploma in Creative Studies/Design with Fashion Skills, followed by an Art Foundation Diploma and a Drawing and Applied Arts Degree at U.W.E. graduating in 2007. Drown was introduced to silk painting during her Diploma but concentrated instead on three-dimensional and installation works for her Degree, involving transferring images onto fabric and designing, making and embroidering vintage clothes. She has since experimented with various resistance techniques, methods of applying silk paint exploring the infinite variety of patterns and textures found on leaves, stems and grasses.
