RUTLAND — Monday was a good day for Karen Kane. While it was exciting and encouraging having Sen. Patrick Leahy hold a field hearing of his U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee in Rutland on opiate abuse in Vermont, there was something even better. Just before the hearing began, Kane, of Brandon, learned that a spot opened up at the Mapleleaf Farm drug treatment center in Underhill for her 24-year-old son, a heroin addict.

Royals minor league pitcher John Lamb to undergo "Tommy John" surgery
The Royals announced today that left-handed pitching prospect John Lamb will undergo ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction or "Tommy John" surgery on his left elbow. The surgery is scheduled for Friday, June 3 in Los Angeles, Calif., and will be performed by Dr. Lewis Yocum.
Lamb, 20, made eight starts for Double-A Northwest Arkansas in 2011, going 1-2 with a 3.09 ERA in 35.0 innings. The 6-foot-4, 198-pounder was in Major League Spring Training with the Royals, tossing 1.0 shutout inning and striking out three in one relief appearance. The 2010 Paul Splittorff Award winner as the organization's top pitcher was ranked by Baseball America as the 18th-best prospect in baseball entering the 2011 campaign.
Lamb was selected by the Royals in the fifth round of the 2008 June Free Agent Draft out of Laguna Hills (Calif.) High.

1975 Yamaha TZ750
Kenny Roberts' dirt-tracker
This may be one of the most awe-inspiring motorcycles ever built. In fact, even now, 26 years later, it is legendary as the bike that caused King Kenny Roberts to say: "They don't pay me enough to ride that thing." Here's the story: Roberts had won the 1973 and '74 AMA Grand National Championships using twin-cylinder, four-stroke Yamahas on the dirt. But by '75, Harley-Davidson's XR750 had left the Yamaha behind in performance.
So Yamaha tuners pulled the TZ750 two-stroke, four-cylinder motor out of the road-racer that Roberts used to win Laguna Seca that year, and stuffed it into a dirt-track frame. The engine pumped out 125 horsepower, 50 more than a Yamaha twin. But the question was whether anyone would be able to control the beast.
Roberts tried it for the first time at the Indianapolis Mile, where he quickly discovered that brute power led to a bit of wheel spin. "Finding grip was a problem,'' is the understated way Roberts explains it today.
The TZ could hit about 150 mph at the end of each straight. But balancing throttle and traction in the corners wasn't easy.
Somehow, Roberts qualified for the 25-lap final. And off the line, he put himself in sixth place. But he admits that keeping the bike on the track took every bit of skill he possessed.
"In the main," Roberts recalls, "the cushion went right up to the hay bales. After the race, I had baling wire on the bike" from bouncing off the bales.
In spite of all that, Roberts closed on the leaders: Harley riders Rex Beauchamp, Corky Keener and Jay Springsteen. Then, on the last lap, "I got a terrific drive off turn three. I have no idea why. The tire was almost gone, three-quarters chunked.
"Coming off the last corner, I definitely had third, and I thought I could get second. I hit fifth gear and it was less than a quarter mile at 145, so everything happened quickly."
Somehow, Roberts got the TZ hooked up, and in the final feet of the race, blew past the Harley trio for the win.
It was a spectacular debut, but it was also the bike's only moment of glory. Roberts tried to ride it at two more races, but reverted to his twin both times. At the end of the season, the AMA wrote new safety rules outlawing such machines in the future.
Eventually, this incredible motorcycle came into the hands of historian Steve Wright. It was previously on display at the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum at AMA headquarters in Pickerington, Ohio.

The John L. Grove College of Business at Shippensburg University has again earned the prestigious international reaccreditation from AACSB International — The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
AACSB International today (Jan. 5) announced that 11 colleges or universities earned initial accreditation while 56 colleges and universities, including Shippensburg's Grove College, were reaccredited.
"Since it first earned accreditation in 1981, Grove College has been among the best business schools not only in Pennsylvania, but in the nation," said President Bill Ruud. "By maintaining the quality needed to ensure reaccreditation, the faculty and leaders of the college also ensure our students that their degree is recognized nationally and that their education is first rate. I congratulate everyone in the college for this well-deserved honor."
According to Dr. Barbara Lyman, provost and senior vice president of academic affairs, "Successful reaffirmation of accreditation for the John L. Grove College of Business University underscored the reasons for the college's ranking among the best business schools in the nation.As provost, I appreciate the collective contributions of the faculty, staff, and students to this important process of continuous improvement."Dr. John Kooti, Grove College dean, said, "AACSB accreditation means that the John L Grove College of Business has met the standard of excellence for business programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and we have the highest quality business classes, faculty, research, students, and graduates. We provide our students with the knowledge and skills that employers require to be globally competitive. Our faculty also remain very active in research in order to provide students the most up to date business knowledge, skills, and applications. I am very proud of our faculty, students, administrators, alumni, advisory board, and friends of the University and the College of Business for their dedication to excellence."
In 1981, Grove College became the first school in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education and the ninth college overall in Pennsylvania to become internationally accredited by AACSB International. The college was established in 1971 and has earned a reputation as one of the premier business schools in the Mid-Atlantic Region. In September, U.S. News and World Report recognized the college as among the best business programs in the nation in its "Best Colleges Specialty Rankings: Best Undergraduate Business Programs" category. It was one of only 17 colleges or universities in Pennsylvania to be recognized and the only university in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education to make the 2011 list of nationally ranked business programs. The college celebrated three major milestones in 2007: 70 years of teaching business, 35 years since the College of Business was established and 25 years that the business programs maintained AACSB accreditation.
According to its mission statement: "The John L Grove College of Business of Shippensburg University is committed to being an outstanding business school in the Mid-Atlantic region by providing a quality teaching and learning environment for undergraduate and graduate students. The dynamic curriculum and related professional activities are coordinated to prepare our students for a technologically advanced and global business environment, to engage in life-long learning, and to become productive and ethical members of a diverse society. Excellence in teaching and high standards of intellectual contribution are supported by providing faculty with professional development and research opportunities to create and share knowledge for the benefit of our students, the University, and academic and professional communities."
Founded in 1916, AACSB International is the longest serving global accrediting body for business schools that offer undergraduate, master's, and doctoral degrees in business and accounting. According to AACSB International, less than five percent of schools of business worldwide have earned this distinguished hallmark of excellence in management education. According to AACSB International, to maintain accreditation a business program must undergo a rigorous internal review every five years, at which the program must demonstrate its continued commitment to the 21 quality standards relating to faculty qualification, strategic management of resources, interactions of faculty and students, as well as a commitment to continuous improvement and achievement of learning goals in degree programs.

It's no secret that Baz Luhrmann created a super decadent vision of The Great Gatsby, and to be honest…we're just eating it all up over here. The costumes (dripping crystals, feathers, and luxurious accessories), the A-list actors, the sets…just everything! So, to show our love to the costume designers, we've included some of our favorite looks from the film, and Vogue's shoot with Carey Mulligan. Oh, we also threw in some Leo as well for additional style inspiration and eye candy. You're welcome.

Want to cop some Gatsby inspired style? Check out some headbands, pearls, and glitzy clutches from GoJane. Maybe throw on a dropwaist dress, or two. Don't forget to mix up a Gin Rickey to sip on while you look fabulous.

The Malibu, CA house in the following photos is on the market for $54 million, but more to the point, it was once used as Queen Sophie-Anne's home in "True Blood." Fans of the show will recognize the indoor pool as the place that Evan Rachel Wood did some remarkably bad acting, and bit lots of people's necks.
So, since Wood got to do it, it only seems fair that the rest of us should also be allowed to imagine what we would do if we were vampires and lived in this house. Here is my take on this highly critical question.

May 30, 2016
Mississippi lawmakers say they're getting closer to agreeing on details of a budget for fiscal year 2014, which begins July 1.
Saturday is the deadline for House and Senate negotiators to file final versions of bills for the $5.5 billion budget.
Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Eugene "Buck" Clarke told The Associated Press Wednesday there are no major disagreements. He says there are some complex issues to work out, but he doesn't expect the two sides to have trouble meeting the deadline.
The process may be smoothed somewhat by the addition of $97 million, approved by the Joint Legislative Budget Committee last week. The decision to add the extra money was made in response to increased economic activity in the state.

Forums heating up! Must be getting close to hunting season...
Or people are tired of the hot weather and are boycotting it by staying inside around their electronic gadgets
I got home today after pouring 70 sacks of concrete really looking foreward to a cold beer and get a msg my step son is in the county jail. Him and his fiance along with their 7 month old daughter and his little brother were going to see his great grandma 300 miles away. They stopped about 5 miles out of town and his fiance tripped and fell in the gravel on the shoulder when she got out and a car passing by called 911 and reported he pushed her out of the car. The law in this state is they have to arrest him if there is 'probabil cause' as in the whitness driving by. So he has to sit in jail till his hearing monday. I went down there and cant even see him till tomorrow. Talked to an officer which got nowhere. I did inform him it is possible to fall without getting pushed. Then his mother shower up and to my surprise she was actually somewhat nice to me. The kid aint perfect but there is no doubt in my mind that he would never do anything like this.
Got us a trayvon & Zimmerman protest going on a few streets over today....big fun Yipee....
No one would protest or even hear about it if it was the other way around........
True...but these folks wanted to protest in the the wealthy area of Houston bc for years "they" weren't allowed to even go there....so they protested at the shopping center that really sits on the outskirts of that neighborhood.
Im not racist at all (I do my best to hate everyone equally) but this stuff really irritates me.
Goodness 66 pages! Well I guess I wasn't the only one that felt like I needed to catch IKIC
A bonafide city boy...that calls the Backcountry his "hood!"

1969 Super Bee Project Timber WolfWritten by on October 1, 2007 We're Making Progress
If you've read the past couple issues of Mopar Muscle, we're sure you know about our latest project car. We're teaming up with the Timber Wolf Speed Shop to build a killer '69 Super Bee that will be given away when it's finished . . . that's right, given away. So if you haven't entered the contest yet, be sure you do. We'd love for one of our readers to end up with this Super Bee in his or her garage.
Last month, we stripped the car and prepped it to go to the paint shop to be refinished. While our Super Bee had a pretty solid foundation, the previous paint job was of poor quality, and the car had to be stripped to bare metal before repairs could begin. Since then, the crew at J.D.'s Paint and Body Shop has been working vigorously to make repairs, straighten panels, and transform our car into a stunning showpiece. By the time you read this article, the car will be covered in multiple coats of Diamont FY1 Top Banana paint.
We also disassembled our Super Bee's 383 engine last month, finding several areas that would need to be addressed. We've sent the block, crank, and heads to Auto Performance Engines, where the block will receive an overbore to accommodate new Speed-Pro forged pistons. The crank will need some attention as well because the thrust surface was worn significantly, and the journals will be ground for undersize bearings. The heads will be treated to a high-performance, multi-angle valve job, and then assembled with new springs, retainers, and locks from Comp Cams. Once we get the engine back, we'll reassemble it with a healthy cam and all new internals.
When we get the car back from the paint shop, we have lots of new goodies from YearOne and Legendary Auto Interiors that we'll use to complete the interior. We'll also be installing new Master Power four-wheel disc brakes.
We hope to achieve a blend of good looks, power, and drivability, and as you're probably figuring out, this car will be a fun ride for cruising, car shows, or the occasional pass down the quarter-mile.
Like many of you, we don't particularly care for this stage of the build because all we can do is wait for our car and engine to return from their respective shops. We've already ordered most of the parts to complete the car, so next month we should be able to start the reassembly phase of our project. Be sure to follow along as we transform this car into a street machine that any Mopar enthusiast would love to own.

1 Upon stripping the paint from the car, several areas of questionable bodywork were discovered. These will all be repaired properly before the car is painted. Remember, the paint job is only as good as what's underneath it.2 Like most two-door B-Bodies, our driver-side door hinges were shot. J.D. repaired them by reaming the pin holes oversize to accommodate new hinge pins.3 This is just an example of the quality bodywork a previous shop had performed on our Super Bee. The entire area around the taillight was made from chopped fiberglass and resin. Hey, at least it wasn't newspaper and Bondo! We had new metal welded in place to repair this, of course.4 We found out our windshield had been leaking, so we removed it to investigate. As it turns out, a replacement windshield had been improperly installed. We'll fix this by re-installing the glass with a new gasket.5 The hood of our Super Bee was in decent shape, only needing minor work to prep it for paint. We still haven't decided if we should paint the hood the body color or matte black.6 The guys at J.D.'s Paint and Body pay careful attention to the entire car, ensuring that even the underside of the panels is arrow straight.7 Making a car straight involves many hours of sanding, filling, and sanding again. This is labor intensive, but it's the only way to do it right.8 After tearing our engine down, we delivered the components to Auto Performance Engines, where Kevin Willis and his crew will perform all the necessary machine work.

Alexandre Burrows scored both goals for the Canucks, who had a two-game
winning streak stopped. Roberto Luongo gave up all five goals on 26 shots in
the loss.
"It was a disappointing result tonight," said Luongo. "Their goalie had a
great game tonight and I struggled out there. Just have to forget about this
one and get back to work tomorrow."
The Canucks struck just six seconds into the game as Daniel Sedin sent a pass
from the left wing to the right where Burrows one-timed it off the post.
The Red Wings tied the game six minutes later on Abdelkader's first of the
game. Datsyuk's pass from the right circle to the front was tipped in by
Zetterberg's one-timer from in front at the 13:57 mark of the second on the
power play gave Detroit a lead, and it held up 1:20 later when Jannik Hansen
was awarded a penalty shot, but he hit the post.
It was a 3-1 game 1:20 into the third on Zetterberg's second of the game and
Cleary gave Detroit a three-goal lead at the 5:57 mark as his shot from the
top of the right circle went off the left post and in.
Abdelkader scored with 5:16 to play and Burrows' second of the game with 2:38
left capped the scoring.
Detroit hosts Minnesota on Wednesday ... Vancouver hosts Minnesota on Monday
... Detroit has won both games against Vancouver this season ... Burrows'
first goal set a franchise record for fastest goal from the start of the game.
The previous record was nine seconds in 1994 ... Vancouver forward David Booth
left the game in the first period with a lower-body injury.

Irons, oil cans, pencil sharpeners, razors – a plethora of everyday objects have been crafted into buildings to form this virtual steampunk city.Toronto-based artist David Trautrimas created his Habitat Machines series from thousands of images. Sixteen thousand of them, to be precise, which he works on in Photoshop to create his weird and wonderful structures.
"I am an obsessed junk hunter," Trautrimas says. "I feel a constant push to seek out the perfect object that I can then dismantle. This search has taken me from the treacherous to the banal, from lugging 300lbs of vintage refrigerator up rickety, century-old basement stairs, to scouring eBay and Craigslist for the ultimate find. In between are visits to flea markets, church bazaars, yard sales, auto wrecking yards, pawn shops, and neighbourhood garbage nights, all in the pursuit of inspirational debris."

Railroad shipping: AAR reports August 2011 volumes are mixed
September 08, 2011
As has been the case in previous months, the Association for American Railroads (AAR) reported that carload and intermodal volumes in August were mixed.
August carloads—at 1,482,570—were down 0.3 percent annually. Intermodal—at 1,179,838 trailers and containers—was up 0.4 percent compared to August 2010.
Of the 20 major commodities tracked by the AAR, 12 were up on an annual basis in August. Metallic ores were up 16.6 percent, and motor vehicles and parts were up 5.7 percent. Grain was down 17.1 percent, and coal was down 1.7 percent. And the AAR said that excluding coal and grain, U.S. rail carloads for August were up 3.7 percent compared to August 2010.
The AAR also reported that as of September 1, 271,404 freight cars were in storage, which represents 5,539 fewer cars than August 1.
For the week ending September 3, the AAR said that carload volumes—at 303,260—were down 0.4 percent annually. Intermodal—at 233,941 trailers and containers—was down 1.3 percent
Metallic ores led commodity gains for the week with a 24.5 percent increase year-over-year, and farm products excluding grain were down 23.9 percent.
Carload volume in the East was down 0.8 percent for the week and out West it was down 0.2 percent compared to the same week a year ago.
Through the first 35 weeks of 2011, the AAR said cumulative carload volume—at 10,133,479—was up 1.9 percent, and trailers and containers—at 7,931,620—was up 5.8 percent.

Happy May everyone!
Things are fine at the Lily household. Spring is here and we're having a blast playing outside. I realized yesterday how much more comfortable I am letting them play and not hovering than I was last year. DS is certainly getting better about following instructions - especially in the front yard - he stops at the sidewalk and stays out of the street. Of course they are almost four so it's about time.
DS has been dry at night for ages. DD still gets wet a night sometimes. Of course he doesn't want to give up his pullup and she does! I told her if she stays dry for 7 nights, she can wear undies to bed. And I didn't give him a choice - time for undies. I'd be so happy to be TOTALLY done with pullups. Of course, they are miles better than wet beds in the middle of the night. :)
We all went to CPK for dinner last night. Sat at a table since my father came too and we had 5 people. Usually we sit in a booth. I actually found they behaved much better in chairs than in a booth - maybe I should rethink my restaurant strategy. :)
So...how is everyone?


text: So..... Went out this morning and called in a double. Sun was in my face, it was my third set, when they came in. They held up at 200 yards when I think they saw me moving to get in a better position. I tried squeaking them in but didn't work. The lead dog was facing me so I put it on his neck and squeezed off a round and missed! Damit I was pissed off! I think I shot low but couldn't see the bullet hit to know so instead of opening up I let them run. I hope this will give me another chance at these two. I'm going after that big sucker tomorrow in hopes my luck will turn. I hope to have pics soon instead of nutin!

Hey y'all,
Posting will be slow for the next couple of days. Two reasons:
1. It's the first real spring day in NYC (read = breaking 70 degrees finally!) so I must be outside and I must grab a hit.
2. Kalil's BFF is getting married tomorrow (read = lots o' celebratory eating and drinking).
If there's any kind of big breaking news, I'll most likely tweet it so check me out over there.
Happy Friday!!!

Out of Stock
Item # FLB0029
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Mountain Bike Brakes in stock than that.View Similar Products
Formula R1 Disc Brake $0.00
Tipping the scales at approximately 289.7g for an entire post mount assembly with a 160mm rotor, the powerful Formula R1 Disc Brake is just as at home on a purebred crosscountry race rig as it is on an all-day enduro ripper. It shares the same flex-resisting and heat dissipating technology as the superlight weight R1 Racing, but the R1 divvies up the classic price/weight/strength ratios to favor cost and reliability over grams.
A forged master cylinder ensures strength at a low weight, while a radial design resists flex so all lever forces are transferred directly to the hard anodized piston. A new, higher capacity master cylinder houses time-proven DOT 4 fluid to keep things operating cool and smooth for long maintenance intervals. You can easily run the levers moto-style without swapping lines thanks to Formula's Flip-Flip design. It's also compatible with the MixMaster clamp to reduce cockpit clutter by merging shifter and lever clamps into one unit.
The R1 is equipped with Formula's Tool Free Reach Adjustment knob for quick and simple fine-tuning of lever position to get you set with perfect ergonomics and maximum leverage. The R1 can also be upgraded with the separately available FCS (Feeling Control System) that allows lever stroke adjustment and compensation for pad wear.
The R1 uses a polyester braided hose with aluminum crimps and banjo fittings to prevent hose expansion when under extreme compression. The one-piece, forged caliper houses a large 22mm diameter piston that pushes an aluminum backed organic brake pad. This combination provides excellent power, modulation, and quiet operation.
The Formula R1 Disc Brake represents the pinnacle of disc brake performance. The price reflects all the parts, save the rotor, for a single wheel. Rotors are sold separately with the appropriate adaptor—choose between one piece 160mm or 180mm, or the slightly lighter and much sexier two-piece design in 160mm or 180mm.
Please note: almost all hydraulic brake lines need to be cut to size before a bike is properly shod with hydraulic disc brakes. You'll need a quality cable-cutter like the Park CN-10 and a spoke to first cut and then de-crimp the housing.
- Forged master cylinder body and caliper provide increased modulation, power, and durability
- Patented caliper piston system increases fluid capacity to provide fade resistance
- Includes lever, caliper, 850mm hose, 160mm rotor, and pads

I used to backup my addressbook by issuing the following command:
and always worked.Code:zmmailbox -z -m myaccount getRestUrl \"/calendar?fmt=ics\"
Now I installed 6.0.8 64bit and that url isn't working anymore.
In difference from the previous install, I now have Zimbra listen to http but on port 81 and https.
So the first issue could be that it was generating the url as :80 instead of :81. But anyway, I now changed config to https only, so it should compose the url as https://myserver, but it's not!
Is there any further configuration I need to do?

You voted in Round One of the 2010 Gallery Idol competition sponsored by Paper Crafts magazine, right?
I knew that you did.
And guess what? Your votes have been tallied and 15 moxie fab designers have advanced to the next level!
These designers, specifically. Check out the fun projects I pulled from each of their blogs in this special Five for Friday Gallery Idol Blog Bop. Let's get to know them all a little better, shall we?
Moxie Fab Alert: Cutie-pie dresses on a trendy Wendy clothesline with those free-floating line-drawn clouds all above a hand-cut grass border with a sweetie sentiment? Moxie fab Miss Winter, moxie super fab!
Moxie Fab Alert: It is the layers on this card that speak to me most. Beginning with the background script; then the blue, then the green, then the pink line-drawn flowers; to the sentiment; and back up to the dimension of the simply colored butterfly; my eye is drawn through the card--and I just love where it takes me.
Moxie Fab Alert: Originally created for a recent Sketch Challenge for Paper Crafts Connection, I love the juxtaposition of the graph circles with the retro background paper. The turquoise and green color scheme is moxie trendy, and the pairing of the word "sew" with the wonky stitching works like a charm!
Moxie Fab Alert: What I like most about this layout is the way the sun seems to be rising on this cutie little girl. I love that the photos are in black and white, because they stand out in the center of all that fun color!
Surf's Up Layout by Shanna Vineyard
Moxie Fab Alert: I love that everything Shanna has used in this layout accentuates that cute photo of her girls. And notice the flow of design. Your eye first lands on the photo, then to the bird, then to the horizontal stripe that moves it across the tags which take you to the palm trees which wrap you right back to the photo. Absolutely seamless!
Moxie Fab Alert: With a trio of trendies at the heart of this card (banner, doily, fabric flower), its bright color palette and its fluid design make it simply moxie fab!
Moxie Fab Alert: Regina created this card for an inspiration challenge. Not only do I love the color combination from which she drew her inspiration, but I also love that this card is created entirely from scraps!
Moxie Fab Alert: Can you say super circles? I just love the way Lynn has emphasized this shape in so many different ways on her layout--and yet, they don't overpower the awesome photo!
Moxie Fab Alert: First, the color scheme. Second, the way Kryssi has used a monochromatic background which causes the pale yellow butterfly to pop. Third, the use of buttons and lace. And fourth, the focal point on the right hand side with the attached sentiment. Fifth, moxie pretty!
Moxie Fab Alert: Whenever you put woodgrain together with graphic elements, my heart starts a-racin'. I love how well all these elements work together: The vertical woodgrain paralleled by the four bold green circles on the vertical, accented by the black ribbon. The sentiment is understated yet bold. And the wonky stitching at the bottom right and top left--a fun detail that takes this card from awesome to super awesome in an unexpected way!
Moxie Fab Alert: The script in the background is beautiful. The stitched frame with the torn edges adds a soft touch. The stamped flower that reaches upward, drawing our eye to the sentiment is graceful, especially because it is tied into the color scheme with the red mat. And the twine at the bottom grounds it all into one lovely, lovely card.
Moxie Fab Alert: What a fun banner! Love the pom-poms! Love the embossed dots! Love the lace! Love the scallops! Love the color combination! Love this card!
Moxie Fab Alert: IMHO, this is a perfect card. The message is clear right from the get-go and it couldn't be more poignant.
Moxie Fab Alert: Soft, elegant, simple, trendy, pretty, wonderful. Need I say more?
Moxie Fab Alert: Um. This card is dreamily dripping with deliciousness. D-r-i-p-p-i-n-g!
In the meantime, leave me a comment by midnight MDT on Sunday, June 13 that says what you like about any of the projects you see here today and how they inspire you and I'll draw one random winner to receive something yummy from my moxie magical prize drawer!
Idolizing the Idols,

What a great idea:
One menu each week.
One price.
When it's gone, it's gone.
Jen Gilroy and Amy Britt, owners of Meditrina and the new Pig and a Jelly Jar, have a knack for finding niches Salt Lakers didn't know needed filling.
Like Sunday night supper.
We stopped in last evening around 6:30. We ordered-supper. No substitutions, no choices, except of what to drink-we had a bottle of Latour Ardeche Chardonnay and one of us had one of the special PBR cocktails, beer and orange juice. Except she subbed a hefeweizen.
Then we all ate our BLT salad–fresh greens and tomato quarters in a sweet-tart dressing, criss-crossed with thick bacon
and garnished with tiny grilled cheese sandwiches instead of croutons.
Next a plate of polenta-crusted fried chicken breast, firm and juicy, topped with grilled onions, on a bed of smoked pepper and spicy corn "tapenade," with a side of garlicky and slightly soupy mashed potatoes.
We cleaned our plates.
And then ate a freshly made doughnut, with a fruit cream and a drizzle of balsamic.
Back home in time for Masterpiece Theater.
This could get to be a habit.

Borderless Business: How Electronic Postage Technology Demystifies International Shipping
August 19, 2011
The sage adage "Think globally, act locally" has never been more relevant to businesses – especially those that ship goods. According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, roughly 96 percent of the world's consumers live outside the United States – holding two-thirds of the world's purchasing power.
Online auction giant eBay® reports that 50 percent of its registered buyers live outside the United States. With ecommerce on the rise, and the Internet making the world smaller (85 percent of global Internet users shop online), businesses are missing significant revenue opportunities if they are not venturing into international trade waters.

Looks canine to me. How big is it?
I put this in field photos too but thought I would put here too...
I believe it canine and not feline. The part is I am hoping it is coyote and not the bigger cousin. Some thing to note, I found a dead elk calf on Saturday. I went back into the area today (Tuesday). The entire calf was gone. No blood, hear or anything. Like it carried off and I found this track in the mud near where the calf was.
This was taken in South Eastern Wyoming near Arlington
Looks canine to me. How big is it?
I think canine as well. If you remember, next time put a pen or something next to the track to give reference to the size.
From the outside edge of far left and far right toes it was just wider than my four fingers. That is 3 1/4 inches. I didn't think about taking a picture with my fingers because I was kicking myself for not putting my game camera up near the calf. But you are totally right, I should have.
It is canine. Probably a domestic/feral dog.
You have to remember, it is in the mud so it makes the track bigger too. Especially an old track like that. I'm with the others on identification.
I hope it is a dog. But it would have to be feral because or it was lost. This was taken 2 miles from a dead-end FS road in the middle of Medicine Bow Forest.
I would also say canine.
Certainly canine, but much too large for a coyote, even spread out in the mud. Dog or wolf. More than likely a young wolf that has dispersed from its pack.
Live to hunt, hunt to live.

A groundbreaking ceremony took place Friday for the Habitat for Humanity-Wheeling Area home at 97 33rd St. in Wheeling Friday.
McWhorter said she and the girls are currently renting and must move out by the end of the year.
According to Habitat for Humanity-Wheeling Area President Bob Kennen, the home will be known as the Soroptimist House because of the generosity of the Soroptimist Club which held a number of fundraisers and donated more than $10,000.
He also noted donations of the Saints and Sinners Club and the Vineyard Church, which gave more than $9,000.
"We hope to start construction as soon as we get our building permit and a variance," Kennen said. "All construction work will be done by volunteers and we are working to get donated materials. We still need to raise about $10,000."
Wheeling Architect Adam Mull designed the building.

MET Veleno Helmet $0.00
Surely, you've been waiting with bated breath for MET's Veleno Helmet to land stateside, and we're happy to tell you that your wait is over. Now, for the first time, you gain access to one of the most technologically advanced, and comfortable, cross country helmets on the market.
MET takes comfort seriously, however, it doesn't just aimlessly punch multiple ports into its designs to achieve this. Instead, MET developed a protocol called Air Scale to measure ventilation. Simply put, it measures two essential parameters -- the Head Contact Surface (HCS) and Cooling Factor (CF).
The HSC indicates the percentage of the head that's in contact with the helmet. Why is this important? Well, common sense tells us that when HCS is high, there's simply no room for air to circulate. So, this lets MET design the HSC at a minimum, and in this case, the Veleno rests at 65%. Meanwhile, MET uses an advanced testing system called Fluid Flow Analysis (much like Computational Fluid Dynamics software) that measures the velocity and temperature of airflow as it passes through the helmet. This means that heat buildup is decreased as the design adapts to testing, accordingly giving its CF rating a 7.5 out of 10.
Further adding to the Veleno's low CF are MET's Gel02 front interior pads and patented Coolmax anti-allergenic interior pads. And not only do these reduce pressure on the skull and skin, but they also encouraging rapid evaporation of perspiration for a cooling comfort. The pads aren't for impact protection, however, that's left to the Veleno's In-Mold Intelligent Fusion construction. What is this? Simply put, In-Mold means that the shell and outer are bound during the manufacturing process. Furthermore, the shock resistant shell is fused to the impact absorbing EPS foam inside. And taking a step even further, MET also reinforced the Veleno around its numerous vents in order to add structural integrity. Ultimately, this system effectively minimizes and disperses shock force from impact.
Securing the fit of the Veleno is MET's proprietary Safe-T Smart retention system. Essentially, it uses a micro retention system that features both horizontal and vertical adjustment. Precision adjustments are made with a dial at the rear of the helmet. And due to this, the pressure is distributed across a broad surface, yet with a minimal contact area. So, comfort and safety are both accounted for on one simple platform. Additionally, the Veleno features a sophisticated chinstrap design that utilizes braided Kevlar. This not only increases durability, but it also nearly eliminates abrasion while increasing breathability and comfort.
Keeping sun's glare out of your eyes is a removable, low-profile, and tapered visor.
The MET Veleno Helmet is available in the sizes Medium and Large and in the colors Black/red, Matte Black, Matte White, and White/Cyan.

Reviews & Community
first time owning this brand of helmet. Its really comfortable, and is super light.
I love it. Super glad I bought it.
This is a Solid Helmet!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
First purchase of a MET Helmet. Here are the first impressions
1)The Met helmets come with a gel fit halo band versus the flimsy velcro padding that falls apart in a matter of days from sweat that comes on other helmets.
2) This Halo also makes the helmet fit secure due to the back and front adjustments. Best fitting helmet I have had.
3) Styling seems great.
4) Price was right compared to spending double on the known brands
I have not crashed with it so can't tell you if it is a life saver but I will say I went out and ordered another one from Backcountry for the road
Did not work for me
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I purchased a large in this helmet because I was in-between the medium and large size helmets. My head measures 22.5" (just over 57cm) and was told that Met helmets run on the small side. Plus, if I were to wear a Headsweats underneath, I would have to have a bit of room to play with.
Upon receiving the helmet and trying it on, I noticed that there was barely any adjustment left after tightening. I though nothing of this at the time and went about wearing it. After 2 rides I noticed that I was bottomed out after tightening the helmet and making adjustments on the trail. I am not sure if the plastic straps on the retention system stretched or what happened. The helmet started to move around on my head a bit while riding, which is not a good thing. That is when I decided that the large was too large for me.
When I did ride with the helmet, I noticed that the air flows through this thing like a champ. Much better than any previous helmet I have owned. I also liked the gel pad on the forehead because it actually worked. Although it did completely block all the sweat from dripping down, it was much, much better than the fabric pads found on other helmets.
I can't really say how the overall fit was, because I feel that this helmet wasn't the right size for me. So, obviously, I cannot make a fair assessment on the fit of this helmet. I only wish I knew for sure if the medium would fit me because I did like the looks and feel of this helmet, as well as the gel pad.
Not for pony tails
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I have a large helmet by another maker but I needed a red one for my new red bike. I am girl with long hair and I don't think I have a big head. The helmet did fit but did not give comfortable room for a bandana and there was no space for my pony tail on the back, there is just not enough room and the straps on the back of the head only adjust to fit your head in, not to give room for a pony tail. Love the design and the color. Beautiful helmet, I am sad it didn't work for me.
Safe-T Smart retention system
Veleno without visor.
Veleno with visor
Great Looking Helmet.
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This helmet provide a lot of ventilation, while riding you can feel the air cooling your head, it is a nice looking one with nice lines and fitting. You can use the helmet for MTB (provided visor) or road riding (can detach the visor). The construction is top notch. The adjustment with the rear dial is easy to adjust. I'm very pleased with this helmet. I love it!!!
MET Veleno XC proven.
Great Fit (After Getting the Right Size)
I wear a Medium in Giro helmets and went with a medium with this helmet. I had to return it for the large. The helmet now fits great and has amazing ventilation. Light weight and good looking. The straps are comfortable and the dial at the back of the helmet is easy to tighten/loosen on the go even with gloves on. Have not had to test out the durability yet (and I hope not to do so) but it seems solid enough.
There is no sizing info for this helmet....
There is no sizing info for this helmet. I have a fat head so I need a larger helmet. Some brand's large fits, some don't.
Medium is 54-57 cm and Large is 58-61.

Kimmel Earns Record 80th ARCA Victory and 10th TitleWritten by on October 7, 2013
What's better than recording your record-breaking 80th win? Clinching an unprecedented 10th series championship at the same time. As of last Friday's race at Kansas Speedway, Frank Kimmel is officially the most winning competitor in ARCA Racing Series history.
"This is kind of a dream come true, to win the championship and get our 80th win on the same day," Kimmel said in victory lane. "It's a great day for us, a great day for Ansell and Menards. It's a cool day."
Kimmel had previously been tied with Iggy Katona, at 79 wins apiece, prior to completing the Kansas race. Officials were forced to shorten the Kansas Lottery 98.9 by 34 laps, with inclement weather approaching.
"I saw the lightning off behind the grandstands," Kimmel said. "I'm glad I didn't have to make the call, but I was happy about it."
A crucial pit stop on lap 20 allowed Kimmel to stay out when the other leaders pitted. As the result, he was the leader at the halfway point as well as when the call was made to end the race at lap 65.
"Jeriod (Prince/crew chief) made that call," Kimmel said. "Once we got out front, we were really fast."
Second place went to Mason Mitchell in the No. 82 Happy Cheeks Ford, followed by John Wes Townley, pole-sitter Dylan Kwasniewski, and Justin Boston of the Venturini Motorsports camp. Townley put on a good race, and was hoping to bookend the season after winning the opener in Daytona. Spinning during qualifying, had the No. 15 Zaxby's Toyota starting in 15th, though.
Mitchell was another great story this year, finishing the season with nine consecutive top 10 finishes. The 19-year old made his debut last year, and earned quite a few points in the SCOTT Rookie Challenge. However, it appears Boston will take the rookie of the year honors, as he ended the season with the most points in part due to the fifth place finish in the No. 25 ZLOOP Computer & Recycling Toyota. Also of note, James Hylton, who finished 18th, bid farewell after the Kansas race. The 79-year-old spent six decades in the sport.
