I love the resist initial idea. It is similar to something my daughter is doing this summer.
An artist at a show had these wonderful graphic pieces of art. My daughter asked him about the process and decided to replicate it at home. He painted a canvas black, covered it with tape, drew a simple line drawing, removed everything but the lines, painted over the canvas, removed the tape and VOILA!
You are one of the most creative moms around.

The mini quiche trays are in the frozen food section of your grocery store, BJs, or Costco. They have mini appetizer (bite-sized) quiches that come in them, I like the spinach quiche!! : )

I LOVE the idea of doing a theme camp with your kiddies. What a great way to keep their interests and attention during the summer. Also I'm sure they just love having something to look forward to. Great ideas!

I love the ideas I am finding but how much rubbing alcohol do you put in with the food coloring to dye the noodles? Thanks for the great ideas.
- July 17, 2010 at 8:21 AM
- pink and green mama MaryLea said...
I use about one capful of rubbing alcohol per zippy bag -- honestly, I haven't died noodles or rice with straight rubbing alcohol in a longtime. I use a few pumps of Purelle/hand sanitizer now instead -- it dries faster and it's something the kids can help me with.

do you cook the noodles or just soak them , can you elaberate on that, water and food coloring or how?
- July 12, 2013 at 3:41 PM
- pink and green mama MaryLea said...
The noodles are hard, not cooked. Just put them in a ziplock bag with some rubbing alcohol or purelle and a few drops of food coloring. Massage and the color will be distributed. It's the same method we use to make our rainbow rice described in previous sensory box and I spy bottle posts.

* Rainbow Birthday Party Highlights: Craftivities
As guests arrived, they were invited to the art studio to make their own
Froot Loop Cereal necklaces on rainbow yarn.
We taped down one end on the table. (Remember these from RAINBOW Camp?!)
Built- in snacks to wear and eat while you work!
Then, we picked out paint sample chips to make our own
mini notepads (click here if you need directions from my older post!)
Then, we moved on to Color Wheel mixing with paper towels.
Do you remember this wonderful activity from my bloggy friend, Anne's Itty Bitty Blog?
I downloaded these cute templates from Mama Jenn's blog here and laminated them
to use for future art classroom activities.
Sadly, I used diluted food coloring in water and the colors were too washed out to bleed and mix properly so our color wheels were a bit of a flop.
Then, we moved on to our awesome no mess hankie tie-dyeing
with permanent markers and rubbing alcohol!
with permanent markers and rubbing alcohol!
Followed by some water color painting.
We painted monograms with watercolors on watercolor paper.
I cut out each child's initial from clear contact paper ahead of time and had them ready to go.
Each of the craftivities could be done by guests of all ages (including three year old little sisters!)
Happy Birthday sweet girlie!
Before she opened each gift, the Frog Princess took a moment
to look at that gift-giving friend and tell them something she liked about them,
or that made them special to her - it was really sweet
(and I wrote down what she said about each friend as well as what gift they gave her)
Taking a quick break from unwrapping gifts to make an impromptu wrapping paper dress!
One of the Frog Princess' friends made her this sweet bracelet -- she loved it!
(home made gifts from the heART are the best!)
When our guests left, we asked each one to pick a pinwheel from the front yard
to take home, it was fun watching the kids run around in the front yard with their pin wheels spinning
in the March sunshine.... bring on SPRING!

Milan show mixes design, fashion, architecture
MILAN Bathrooms that beg indulgence. Tiles that reduce pollution. Lighting that mimics a rainbow.
Extravagance, social consciousness and innovation are strange, but alluring, bedfellows at the Milan Furniture Show and the myriad side events dedicated to design that wrap up Sunday, ending a weeklong celebration of domestic bliss in its many forms.
The burgeoning event was originally conceived to promote Italian furniture making, which is withstanding the recession better than many industries, and now encompasses also design, fashion and architecture.
And as all these disciplines converge, so does utility. More and more, pieces can be shifted from room to room, and from home to office.
Global sales of luxury furnishings last year rose 3 percent to 18.5 billion euros ($24 billion), according to a study by Bain&Company for the Altagamma association of luxury designers. That's behind the 10 percent growth of the luxury industry as a whole, largely because emerging markets like China still haven't gotten around to redecorating their interiors, which Bain says gives great growth potential to the sector.
The sprawling event gives ample space for everyone from established designers like Phillipe Starck and Ingo Maeur to unknown newcomers to showcase their new creations.
Inside a darkened room, tiny LED lights create halos that seem to bend when a hand reaches through. The effect is one of a rainbow, this one manmade with by the Tokyo/Milan design studio IXI with technology by Toshiba. Here, crystals mimic water droplets and the LED lights the sun. The one-off installation created for design week is called `'Soffio," Italian for breath.
Lighting fixtures remain a central theme during design week, from the elegant to the fanciful.
The prestigious French crystal maker Baccarat engaged some of the industry's luminaries to interpret lamps, chandeliers and lighting fixtures for this year's furniture show.
Brazilian brothers Fernando and Humberto Campana incorporated rattan, bamboo and silk in a series of exotic lamps. For their Fusion collection, the encased a greenish blue crystal bulb within bell-shaped rattan shade that suggests the Maghreb. And a clear crystal bulb nests within bamboo cocoon in a table lamp that evokes Asia. Phillipe Starck designed a series of elaborate 24-light chandeliers, one featuring three glass deer heads in full antlers, while Arik Levy created a modernist 4-level frozen pattern chandelier.
Munich-based Ingo Mauer had a wholly modern interpretation on the chandelier. His `'Flying Flames" evoke floating candles fashioned from red or black circuit boards with an electronic flame rendered in LEDs, each suspended from the ceiling. The 32-light creation was shown spectacularly in front of a reproduction of Leonardo's Da Vinci's `'Last Supper."
No more is the bathroom strictly utilitarian. Increasingly, it is a sanctuary for indulgence, more spa than pit stop on the way to the office or out for the evening.
Design firms are taking note of trend, and have begun to enter one of the fastest-growing luxury furniture sectors, worth 2.8 billion euros globally last year.
Kartell, the Italian design leader, launched its first-ever collection intended for the bathroom, teaming up with the Swiss fixture maker Laufen and designers Ludovica and Roberto Palomba.
`'I noticed more than two years ago that the bathroom is becoming more and more important," said Kartell president Claudio Luti. `'Now, people want to find the comfort there that you have in the rest of the house. It becomes total living."
The Palomba design team used Laufen's latest technology, a ceramic called SaphirKeramik that is 30 percent lighter and easier to shape, to create graceful bathtubs and washbasins and sanitary fixtures.
The tub and sinks are freestanding and floor-mounted for a clean and spare look. Overflow drains can be hidden, and Kartell has designed colorful disks that fit over external faucets to incorporate utility.

Aah, nothing like new goggles!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Everything looks so clear! I've used these for two weeks and they haven't fogged up once -- that tends to degenerate after a while, but I have hopes. I've been a Speedo goggle wearer for forever, and I was very pleasantly surprised by how comfortable these are. A great fit with no digging.
Excited to use these!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Just got these and I can't wait to use them for when summer hits. I tried them on and they fit great!

China seeks to end US dominance in information technology
Newscast Media BEIJING—While China and the US trade accusations of
cyber-espionage, Beijing is seeking to rid itself of US-made IT products which
dominate the market. But developing competitive alternatives is easier said than
The "cyber war" between China and the US escalated in the beginning of May when
the US Justice Department announced it was pressing charges of economic espionage
against five members of a unit allegedly in charge of electronic warfare within China's

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) - A WUSA 9 restaurant inspection probe has identified continuing issues at DMV restaurants despite recent health department warnings and closures.
College Park Closure
Officials say Prince Café, 8145 Baltimore Avenue in College Park, has been under a closure order for sanitation violations since November 14th, but when we stopped by Monday, the doors were open and clerks sold a WUSA9 undercover producer a chicken-spinach carryout dish.
Last week at the College Park hookah bar, WUSA 9 cameras recorded a patron smoking hookah, which Prince George County officials say violates restaurant code.
Prince George's County records show inspectors cited a sewage back up in Prince Café's kitchen, mold, mice droppings and a citation for operating with no food manager trained and certified in sanitation.
A worker said they are trained in food safety -- they just don't have proper county license. He connected us by phone to Prince Café's owner. He disputed the citations, but declined an interview.
Seven Corners Closure
In Fairfax County, Viet Bistro at Eden Center in Falls Church had passed a re-inspection and was allowed to reopen but when WUSA9 camera checked on conditions workers said there was no food safety manager on the premises.
That is the same violation inspectors cited for the closure the week before.
Inspectors also cited food at unsafe temperatures, hand washing violations and contamination risks.
We waited at the restaurants front door over an hour until Viet Bistro's only food safety manager returned to supervise sanitation as required by the health department.
The woman, who identified herself as the owner, said she believed the health department had given the restaurant a grace period to come into compliance.
"It's a misunderstanding because right now I'm the only person that has a food manager, because the economy right now is really bad and I have to go to the market and get the food," the owner said.
Wheaton Closure
In Wheaton, at Jose's Grill, 11423 Georgia Ave, inspectors ordered the restaurant to stop selling its signature pupusas and all food items due to hand washing, and contamination violations caused by operating with no hot water.
Jose's declined an interview, but allowed us to see inside his kitchen....where the water was hot.
Jose's passed a re-inspection and reopened.
Fairfax County officials returned to Viet Bistro based upon our findings and say it was in compliance during their follow-up inspection.
Prince George's County officials say Prince Café remains under a closure order for sanitation violations, but that a follow-up inspection did not show evidence it was violating the closure order by selling food.

Does anyone know alot about the Tikkas? I have a friend that really likes em', i was considering a browning, tikka, savage, or remington. What's your input on these?
Does anyone know alot about the Tikkas? I have a friend that really likes em', i was considering a browning, tikka, savage, or remington. What's your input on these?
Everyone I know that has one loves it. The plastic mag in the ultralite has raised some concerns with people on other forums but I have plastic mags in my Glock that hit the ground all the time and I have only had one issue so an occasional accidental drop with the Tikka mag wouldn't concern me.
I have a Tikka in 300wsm I like it. I also have a Savage 110 in 270 that I like as well.
which is more accurate?
I'd have to say they are about the same.
As far as I know each of those brands is pretty close accuracy wise. I will say that the Savage AccuTrigger is pretty fantastic. I also know Remington's new X-Mark Pro trigger is really light and crisp and is externally adjustable. I can't speak to the quality of the Browning or Tikka triggers, but I know a good trigger goes a long way to helping out accuracy so its something you might what to go to a gun shop and test out for yourself.
I have 2 brownings x-bolt , one in a 300 winchester magnum and a .270 WSM they both are fantastic guns and shoot very accurate, the best I have. I find my .270 kicks a little more but shoots 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards.
Blue Skies Hunting Adventures
whats the difference between the x bolt and the a bolt?
About $1000
I think its hard to beat a 7mm Rem Mag, especially when its stoked with 160gr Accubonds. My personal favorite is a Winchester Model 70 Classic sporter. Not too heavy to tote but heavy enough to settle in when you're winded or the breeze is a little stiff.

Speechless best describes the unit.

Comments about Dimplex Marana Black Electric Fireplace Media Console - SAP-500-B:
Prior comment about speechless best describes the first look. We looked at those sold by Big Box stores. All were generic ho hum. I purchased this at a specialty store 3 miles from my home. I had no idea these types of electric fireplaces were available at an affordable price. Looks like a very high end product. We planned on spending half the amount that we wound up spending. My wife didn't want one at all. She took one look at this unit and said "I want that one." I paid for delivery and assembly. I'm 68 and not handy. Given the cost of the unit, consider paying another $ 100 to have someone assemble it. We got the glass embers, not the logs. The glass embers go very well with the black unit. Total stylish contemporary effect. The logs looked good with the wood tone unit on display. I believe the flame is the same on both. The size of the firebox, 33 inches, makes this an outstanding unit, while leaving generous space for all components. There are 3 wide/high shelves on each side. The components go in the shelf, not under the TV. Guess they could, but would hurt the looks. A similar Concord Unit with a 50 inch firebox was next to it. Looked too much like an aquarium, with less functional shelf space. When I say space saver for a 75 inch wide unit, I mean you get a TV stand and a fireplace in the same space. I recently purchased a condo, and walked away from units that had a real fireplace that ruined the needed wall space for a large TV.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Beautiful and Amazing Fireplace
By Shelly

About Me Likes quality, Practical
This is a BEAUTIFUL fireplace/console. Very well made and the fireplace is amazing. Love the remote control. We are using it to hold our 55" TV, and it looks great. Heats well too. Easy to assemble...I'm a female in my 60's and I assembled it all by myself. Great company to purchase from too. I highly recommend this fireplace!
Absolutely stunning

About Me Bargain Hunter
It looks awesome. Better than in the photos from the website. Effect is very realistic. My guests can't believe it's electric. Assembly took quite a while and it is really heavy (think about inside delivery). Printed manual is of quite poor quality for the product price range but the product itself it has high quality craftsmanship. I found the website to be confusing giving description of the fireplace itself. This particular model has fire logs while GFP-500-B has glass pieces but it's $200 more. I highly recommend getting it. Worth the money. Also have at least 2 person team to carry in and assemble it. Enjoy. I am!

By Dee Idealist
from Miami FL
Fireplaces are known for providing a warm and cozy atmosphere in whatever room they are located. Being a Florida native, it's simply not needed in this warm climate. I've been very close to buying other traditional looking mantels, but my modern decor didn't allow for it... Until now. This piece is beautifully sleek & stylish. A real awe inspiring piece of furniture. Solid, sturdy& well built. Does NOT look cheap. It's worth every penny. Super realistic flames & slow flickering logs. Even the remote control looks stylish. WARNING, this piece is not photogenic! It looks 100 x better in person. I saw it first online & liked it but thought is was too expensive UNTIL I saw it in person at a fireplace store here in Miami and I was speechless. [...] Pictures really don't do it justice. Great service from this online store. P.S came in 3 big boxes. Easy instructions, husband put it together in 2.5 hours (with help from a friend).

New Deal murals still hang in six Montana post offices
Lots of cool things came to Montana thanks to the New Deal back in the 1930s. The Civilian Conservation Corps helped build some of the most important infrastructure of Montana's state parks and plenty other structures that helped shape the state.
And six artists were commissioned by a special New Deal program to paint murals inside Montana post offices in Billings, Deer Lodge, Dillon, Glasgow and Hamilton. The works of art are still hanging today and in most cases the artists who painted them went on to have storied painting careers that captured special moments of Montana history.
We ran a cool story about the murals in the March/April issue of Montana Mag.
Below is a location list of the six murals. If you've got business in one of the six posts offices listed below or are hitting the road and passing through one of these towns, don't forget to take a few minutes to stop and appreciate the art.
Here's where to find Montana's six New Deal post office murals are spread across the state
– "Trailing Cattle" by Leo James Beaulaurier, Billings Downtown Post Office Station, 2602 1st Ave.
– "James and Granville Stuart Prospecting in Deer Lodge Valley – 1858," by Verona Burkhard, Deer Lodge Post Office, 510 Main St.
– "News from the States" by Elizabeth Lochrie, Dillon Post Office, 117 South Idaho St.
– "Montana's Progress" by Forest Hill, Glasgow Post Office, 605 2nd Ave. South
– "Flat Head War Party" by Henry Meloy, Hamilton Post Office, 150 North 4th St.
– "General Sully at Yellowstone" by J.K. Ralston, Sidney, Donald G. Nutter Building, 123 West Main St.

Project Scope:
Self-published miniatures game to be distributed in print and digital format. The book is getting ready for layout and the sourcing for art has begun. Details for the book can be found at:
100+ Years after the Post-Apocalypse
Design Concept:
Need two maps for the book. The first is more general view of the larger world and the second is smaller view of one region.
Map 1 A professional looking map of the middle of the East Coast of the United States (Mid-Atlantic States). The map will be divided into several non-state entities with a few major spots denoted. Map will need to look like it was produced by a map-maker sponsored by the Biscuit Box Traveler Society, a faction from my book. Size will be 1/2 page color.
Map 2 Will feature a more hand drawn map of a particular region of the above map. It will indicate a few noteworthy locations and a major road, but will not be particularly complex. Size will be 1/2 page in minimal color and will be more of a reference sketch than a professional looking map.
300 dpi minimum. Jpg, tiff, or png files
Full color
I will need full copyright to the maps. The artist will retain right to display map and be credited for its creation.
Layout is ongoing, but would like maps finished no later than late October, though September would be preferred.
Negotiable, but budget is tight. Payment can be either check or Paypal.
Interested artists please contact me with cost estimates for both and relevant portfolios. I will provide final details once an artist has been selected.

Justice Yvette McGee Brown to Serve as Urbana University's Commencement Speaker
Urbana, Ohio (March 5, 2013) - Urbana University announces that Justice Yvette McGee Brown, former member of the Ohio Supreme Court, will serve as the speaker for the one hundred and twenty-first commencement ceremony on Saturday, May 4, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. in the Warren G.

McGee Brown took her experience on the bench to the Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, to create the Center for Child and Family Advocacy. As one of four NCH presidents, she was responsible for the 400 employees overseeing the hospital's Behavioral Health, Child Abuse, and Developmental Pediatrics departments; one of the finest in the country.
She graduated from Ohio University with a BS in Journalism in 1982 and The Ohio State University law school in 1985. Following her years as an outstanding student, she began her career and service in Columbus and throughout Ohio. Justice McGee Brown served on the boards of Ohio University, the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center, and the National Council of the Ohio State University Moritz College of Law.

Prep roundup: Nitro boys beat Poca on Taylor's buzzer beater
Freshman Trevon Taylor hit a turnaround shot as time expired to lift Nitro to a 45-43 over visiting Class AA No. 2 Poca Tuesday night in boys high school basketball.
With the score tied late in the game, Nitro ran a set play out of a timeout that ended in a missed shot. The ball was fumbled between several players on the rebound attempt before Taylor gained control of the ball and sank the winner.
Angelo Sirianni led the Wildcats (8-12) with 13 points while Taylor and Ethan Clark each finished with 10.
For Poca (15-3), Noah Frampton led all scorers with 18 points.
Monday's boys games
With the win, the Patriots (14-4) wrapped up a spot in the Mountain State Athletic Conference Night of Champions on Saturday at the South Charleston Community Center. GW will play Hurricane in the boys second-place game at 4 p.m.
Austin Breeden knocked down five 3-pointers for 15 points for the Patriots and Dominik King added 12 points. For Parkersburg, Dru Aldridge tallied 25 points.
MSAC RESHUFFLING: Because of a clerical error, the Mountain State Athletic Conference boys basketball standings have been reshuffled as divisional games complete this week.
Riverside's Dec. 21 victory against Capital, designated all season as a conference game on the MSAC website (msacwv.org), was actually a nonconference game. Capital's win over the Warriors on Jan. 18 was the true conference contest, even though it remains listed as a nonconference game on the website. MSAC officials acknowledged the error on Tuesday.
See updated standings on Page 4B, and a list of Friday's place-winner games on Page 2B.

Herbie D hopes to represent his fellow Canadians well in Sunday's Longacres Mile.
CANADIAN CONTINGENT WEIGHS IN ON SUNDAY'S$200,000 LONGACRES MILE (G3) AT EMERALD DOWNSWith Hastings Racecourse shipper Herbie D one of the favorites in the $200,000 Longacres Mile at Emerald Downs, two of Canada's most respected handicappers offered their opinions on Sunday's Grade 3 race.To heat up the family rivalry, your intrepid reporters have asked Dan Jukich, the track announcer at Hastings Racecourse and Fraser Downs and his son Matt Jukich, Hastings' Director of Player Development, to share their thoughts on the Northwest's most prestigious race.Interestingly, both Jukichs handicapped separately, but as they say, like father, like son. Both felt that Herbie D, who's won four stakes at Hastings, had the talent to win The Mile, but that postposition No. 10 and a likely quick early pace might hinder the 5-year-old gelding's chances."I'd really like to make a case for Herbie D," Dan Jukich said. "I just don't know what kind of trip he's going to get."Most of his best races have been on the engine and he's going to have to work to get the lead." Expecting fast early fractions, the Jukichs sided with a stretch-runner exacta in reverse order. The elder Jukich chose 7-2 morning-line favorite Politicallycorrect, over Jebrica and Golden Itiz, while the younger Jukich took Jebrica on top, with Politicallycorrect and Golden Itiz underneath. "I hate picking the chalk, so I'll let my dad pick the favorite," said the younger Jukich, poking fun at his dad's selection. "I think Jebrica is an interesting horse in this race and could upset a tough field."Emerald Downs-based Jebrica impressed Canadian onlookers at Hastings, where the 5-year-old Washington-bred gelding compiled a 1-2-0 record in three starts including a half-length victory in the 2011 BC Premier Handicap at 1 3/8 miles. Jebrica comes into The Mile after winning the Budweiser Handicap on June 16, followed by a third-place effort in the Mt. Rainier Handicap on July 21.Aside from the horses, Dan Jukich said he was really impressed with the Mile jockeys' colony this year."It is quite a jockey crew that you guys got down there," he said. "There's the best in the business with Russell Baze. "Aaron Gryder is always tough and even Dennis Carr and Gerry Olguin are solid riders, too. Oh, and how can I forget our main man Mario Gutierrez?"
STRYKER PHD LOOKS TO ACE LONGACRES MILE TESTWith Stryker Phd safely in the race, Margo Lloyd was finally able to take a deep breath, exhale, and focus on the task at hand—trying to win the Northwest's biggest race with Jim and Mona Hour's 4-year-old Bertrando gelding.At 8-to-1 on the morning line, Washington-bred Stryker Phd would appear to have the best chance of the local contingent in this year's Longacres Mile, although Jebrica, a 12-to-1 shot from the barn of five-time Mile-winner Jim Penney, also will have backers."His season has been a nice surprise for the owners and I," Lloyd said. "Although I wasn't too surprised because I could see his talent every day."We're happy with everything coming into the weekend. He'll gallop one more time Friday and then we'll just hope for good weather."Weighted at 116 lbs, Stryker Phd wasn't guaranteed entry until connections decided to ship Commander and Shrug to Edmonton for a stakes race at Northlands Park. This is Lloyd's first Mile starter, and the second for jockey Debbie Hoonan, who finished seventh on 50-to-1 Norm's Nephew in 2007.Longacres Mile Notes:· Sunday's card includes three $0.50 Pick 4s (1-4, 5-8, 8-11).· Longacres Mile nominees Commander (4-to-5) and Shrug (5-to-2) are the top two morning line choices in Saturday's $50,000 Westerner Handicap at 1 1/16 miles at Northlands Park. · The Pacific Sound chorus will perform the national anthem Sunday at Emerald Downs.· In addition to the 40 flat screen TVs given away Sunday—10 after each race—one additional TV will be given away to fans on the Emerald Downs Facebook page.· The $22,575 Pete Pedersen Memorial goes as Sunday's 10th race. Assessment, who lost a shake with Until You to determine the final spot in the Longacres Mile, is among a field of six entered at one mile.· A promising Sunday weather forecast calls for a high temperature of 75 degrees and less than a 10 percent chance of rain.The field from the rail out for the 78th running of the Longacres Mile (Race 8, 5:32 p.m.): Until You, Juan Gutierrez, 114lbs; Hoist, Mario Gutierrez, 117; Politcallycorrect, Russell Baze, 121; Gladding, Dennis Carr, 116; Stryker Phd, Debbie Hoonan, 116; Jebrica, Isaias Enriquez, 118; Golden Itiz, Gerry Olguin, 116; Tres Borrachos, David G. Lopez, 118; Why Not Be Perfect, Anne Sanguinetti, 118; Herbie D, Amadeo Perez, 121; Mr. Bowling, Aaron Gryder, 117; Winning Machine, Javier Matias, 117.
EXCLUSIVE DIVA FACES TOUGH TEST IN $65,000 DISTAFFTrainer Tom Wenzel and owner Northwest Farms could clinch another title Sunday when Exclusive Diva heads a field of seven older fillies and mares in the $65,000 Emerald Distaff at 1 1/8 miles.A star-studded field that features five multiple stakes winners meet in this year's renewal, but Exclusive Diva might prove tough to deny. A 4-year-old Northwest Farms homebred by Bernardini-Puxa Saco, Exclusive Diva is 7-4-1 in 12 starts with earnings of $194,828 and has won four stakes at Emerald Downs."She's a lot of horse for how little she is," said Wenzel, who estimates Exclusive Diva at less than 15 hands and 1,000 lbs. "She looks like a 2-year-old."A major factor Sunday will be pace, and Exclusive Diva and jockey Juan Gutierrez might have to go from the one-hole, and a potential battle could ensue with both E Z Kitty, her season-long rival at Emerald Downs, and Evelyn's Dancer, the monster filly from Canada evenhanded won seven stakes at Hastings Racecourse. But Wenzel wouldn't reveal strategy.In fact, the trainer said he's most concerned that Exclusive Diva, a light filly, would have to carry co-high weight of 121 lbs while stretching out to 1 1/8 miles. In her only previous attempt at nine furlongs, Exclusive Diva was beaten a head by Champagneandcaviar in last year's Washington Oaks."The longer the race, and especially once you get up to 1 1/8 miles, weight becomes a factor," Wenzel said. "She should be OK, pedigree-wise, but her mother was more of a sprinter."With three different winners in as many races, the filly and mare division is up for grabs, and a victory by either Exclusive Diva or E Z Kitty would pretty much settle the issue with voters. And if Exclusive Diva wins, she joins stable mate Stopshoppingdebbie as 2013 champions in the Wenzel barn. The latter filly completed a sweep of the 3-year-old filly ranks with a romp in the Washington Oaks last week. The field from the rail out for the 18th running of the $65,000 Emerald Distaff (Race 6, 4:24 p.m.): Exclusive Diva, Juan Gutierrez, 121 lbs, E Z Kitty, Anne Sanguinetti, 120; Whiskey Miner, Debbie Hoonan, 110; Royal Moses, Javier Matias, 115; Champagneandcaviar, Russell Baze, 115; Evelyn's Dancer, Aaron Gryder, 123; Wando Woman, Amadeo Perez, 117.
Kenai King (left) and Del Rio Harbor (right) working together on Wednesday morning.
HARWOOD HOLDS A SET OF ACES IN $50,000 WTBOA LADSDoris Harwood, the most dominant trainer with juvenile runners in track history, looks to besiege the field with three entrants in Saturday's $50,000 WTBOA Lads Stakes for 2-year-old colts and geldings at 6 ½ furlongs.Despite leading all trainers with 130 2-year-old wins including 19 in stakes races, Harwood has never captured the WTBOA Lads. While the Lads has eluded Harwood, she has been so dominant in 2-year-old stakes races that even if she had never started a 3-year-old or an older horse, she would still rank 10th all-time in stakes wins.On Saturday, she'll saddle one-third of the nine-horse field, with each of her runners possessing a strong chance to capture the Lads. Del Rio Harbor and Kenai King have begun a stable rivalry with each runner trading a decision in their first two starts. Del Rio Harbor, the Lads high weight at 120 lbs., holds a slight edge over Kenai King with his win coming in the Emerald Express.Even with Del Rio Harbor and Kenai King's success, Harwood's least experienced runner, Noosito, could wind up the Lads favorite. Noosito earned the meet's highest 2-year-old Beyer Speed Figure of 67 on August 3, when he cruised five furlongs in 1:03.43 to win by three lengths. On Wednesday, Noosito added further appeal when he breezed four furlongs in :49 flat (1/9)—a bullet on the day's work tab. After the workout, jockey Isaias Enriquez had high praise for the Washington-bred colt."He was doing it very easy," Enriquez said.

More Pitching Changes in the Roster
Just in from Media Relations: The Royals have recalled right-handed pitcher Ryan Braun from Omaha and optioned last night's starter Leo Nunez – who allowed just one run and struck out three in 4.0 innings in the Royals 9-3 win – to Omaha. Braun will be in uniform for tonight's game in Boston.
Some background on the right-hander…This is Braun's third stint with the team this season. He made the Opening Day roster out of Spring Training and pitched in seven games before being sent down to Omaha on May 1. He was recalled May 26, made three relief appearances and then made another trip back to the O-Royals on June 7. At the M.L. level this season, he's posted a 7.24 ERA (13.2 IP, 10 H, 11 ER) with nine walks and nine strikeouts. With Omaha, however, he's got a 2-2 mark with a 1.26 ERA (28.2 IP, 14 H, 4 ER) in 21 games. Braun has seven saves for the Triple-A club, walked 11 batters and struck out 28 to limit his opponents to a .177 average.
First pitch is at 6:05 p.m. (CT) on RSTN and Sports Radio 810 WHB. Odalis takes the mound for the Royals against Boston's Julian Tavarez.

Sweeeet. A newsroom full of Sox weenies, one lone Royals fan and KC comes through. It doesn't get better than that. Gotta give Grudzelaniek the MVP award for game three.
Game two MVP award(s) should go to Nunez and the bullpen corps.

Yes, when setting up your activities, it will ask you what component in your system do you want to control the volume with. Also you can add additional volume controls for what ever component on the custom buttons. So for example, you could use the volume buttons on the remote for your Denon and the up down below the directional buttons for your Panasonic.
Thanks. I've no need for the speakers on the Panasonic so this will work perfectly.

Unemployment figures have dropped for the majority of Michigan's regional labor markets, but have risen up north.
The state said Thursday that Michigan's seasonally unadjusted jobless rate was at 7.9 percent in November, down from 8.3 percent in October. The rates were lower in 14 of the state's 17 major labor markets but up in three northern Michigan areas.
The Department of Technology, Management & Budget says the labor markets that saw unemployment rate increases were the Upper Peninsula, Northeast Lower Michigan and Northwest Lower Michigan.

double-figures as the College of Charleston defeated the Samford Bulldogs,
69-65, in a Southern Conference matchup at the Pete Hanna Center.

text: I used to eat a lot of mountain house pro pak meals. Those are the smaller, easier to pack mountain house meals. They taste pretty good, but are loaded with salt. I started saving packs two hunting seasons ago in hopes of making my own. Well last year I made my own and they turned out realy well. I did up pounds of ground elk on plastic sheet in my excalibur dehydrator. I'd take that and throw in some ramen noodles (minus there seasoning that has msg in it) and put in some alpine touch (best stuff on earth from MT!). Those meals were super tasty and took about the same time as the mountain houses to rehydrate. I also pack string cheese, bagels, pepporoni sausage, deer/elk jerky, trail mix, home dehydrated apples, fruit strips and yogurt strips. For hot breakfasts I'd do oatmeals with some home dehydrated blueberries and or apples. PB and J is also another staple in my pack. Variety for me is a good thing.

Three drug arrests have been made in Kemper County. All were taken into custody Friday during a routine traffic stop on Doug Smith Road near the Neshoba County line. Investigators say methamphetamine was found inside the suspects' vehicle.
"There's a lot of moving parts in Kemper right now and we try to be as visible as we possibly can," says Sheriff James Moore. "We knew that we had some problems going on up there, and it was the good work of the patrol deputies who were able to work this case and get this stuff off the streets."
The three arrested are: 39-year-old Chad Spurline, 30-year-old James Conner, and 35-year-old Pam Pilgrim. All are charged with possession of methamphetamine. As of Monday morning bond for the three had not been set. Because the investigation is ongoing, at this time deputies are not releasing any further information on the case.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) - Photography captures our most important moments. The moments we never want to let go of. A national organization with Arkansas ties captures the silver lining between pain and joy for hundreds of families.
In 2009, Bethany and Scott Allison gave birth to their first son Ethan. The little guy changed their life.
"He came out six pounds eleven ounces, as healthy as can be," said Bethany Allison of Little Rock.
A camera captures forever big smiles and silly faces. It also records cherished moments and somber realities; and for the Allison family, it brought an unexpected friend.
"It's hard I mean I've met so many families and not all of them I become friends with," said Lizzy Yates, a Little Rock Photographer.
Two years after Ethan's birth, the Allison's learned they were pregnant again, but in the later stages, Bethany knew something was wrong.
"Cameron's heart had stopped beating and so it was a big shock and just really hard. It wasn't until that evening when I delivered him that we found out he died due to cord entanglement," Bethany remembers. "A nurse came in and asked us if we would like to have pictures taken of Cameron by 'Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep' and that was the first time we had ever heard of the organization and...Actually at first when you hear that question that set me back because I thought that would be inappropriate," Scott Allison admitted.
The two eventually decided to go ahead with the pictures of little Cameron. Yates also felt apprehensive about the project in the beginning.
"I meet families on the absolute worst day of their life," said Yates, fighting back tears.
Yates provides photography free of charge to families who lose their child at birth through the organization 'Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep.' The nationwide non-profit organization partners with volunteer photographers to give families remembrance pictures.
"It was definitely emotional. It took me back to that day; I have a slide show of all the pictures. It helps me go through the grieving process," said Bethany Allison.
The Allisons lost another baby roughly a year later after Bethany went into pre-term labor, and the heart of baby Davis stopped. Amid tremendous pain, the family requested a photographer again.
"We have keepsakes now...that would have been a huge regret not being able to have that done," said Scott Allison.
"I was afraid our boys would be forgotten as we moved on," said Bethany Allison.
The Allisons are expecting again. Bethany hopes to bring little Brianna into the world in March and all signs are positive so far in the pregnancy. For now they raise their four year old son and reflect on the boys they lost, thankful a camera captures forever.
"Treated very delicately and because she was willing to do that we have these memories that we can always cherish," said Scott Allison.
Yates tells THV11 there are only two photographers in the Little Rock area taking part in 'Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep,' and the demand for pictures is high. If you would like to get more information about the organization you can click here.

Hey so I found this forum through reddit and found some of the tutorials on it and got really into my first map. Liking how it turned out I made a much more ambitious second map. No labels or cities yet but I just want to share, and what better place to share than the site I found the tutorials on
So I created these maps in photoshop CS5 following the Seradin Map Tutorial, only deviating a little bit with my settings. I used a Bamboo pen tablet for most of my painting and a small brush to get the detail right. This was my first map and it took about hours total (including two lost hours due to a BSOD)
After the fun of building that map I decided to make an entire planet at 4000x2000 resolution: Centarus, it took a total of 12 hours to create and I had one catastrophic data loss back to just my recovered black-white outline and one contained data loss to a backup. I used the same general technique, making the mountains a bit darker to add to the feeling of height. I still don't like the rivers too much. I also sketched out ocean currents, winds, and tectonic plates (all lost ) and used them to dictate the terrain and climate of the planet. I imagine it about 3/4 the size of earth.
Sorry for the compressed JPG, I had to cut some quality so it would fit on the server. The only missing details are really the ice cracks in the tundra areas. The very dark green areas are jungles while the lighter green are temperate forests.
If anyone wants a full res copy I'm sure I can figure something out.
Well thats it, hi everybody, hope to have a good time here!

Associated Press
BIG BEAR LAKE, Calif. (AP) - Law enforcement officers are continuing to search a snow-covered mountain near a Southern California ski area for a fired Los Angeles police officer suspected of three murders.
San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon says the hunt will go on until Christopher Dorner is found or there's evidence that he's left the mountain.
Searchers Friday are dealing with falling snow and freezing temperatures in the Big Bear Lake region of the San Bernardino Mountains.
The manhunt focused on Big Bear after Dorner's burned-out pickup was found on a forest road Thursday.

Santa Cruz Bicycles Nomad Carbon 27.5" XX1 Enve Complete Mountain Bike $0.00
The Nomad has proven itself as one of the premier bikes for riders who choose to pedal, and are motivated by gravity. But just when you thought it couldn't get any better, the Santa Cruz Nomad XX1 Enve Complete Mountain Bike comes along and redefines the genre. Now in the third generation, and built with ENVE's class-leading 27.5 inch wheels, this setup was built as a no-compromises machine for winning Enduro World Series rounds. For the rest of us, that translates into a bike that's surprisingly easy to ascend on, even though the real fun starts when the trail turns back down.
The Nomad's VPP suspension platform has been considerably improved as compared to the previous version, with particular focus being paid to improving mid-stroke support, as well as off-the-top small bump compliance. Much as it always has, it still maintains the snappy pedaling that's essential for piloting a long-travel bike to the top of your favorite runs. At the heart of VPP is two aluminum counter-rotating links. The upper-link, borrowed from the V10, provides most of the rotation as the bike compresses into the sag point. This yields a vertical wheel path, which is responsible for the firm pedaling feel.
As the bike compresses deeper into the suspension, the lower-link activates, moving the axle path rearward. The rearward axle path enables the rear wheel to travel out of the way of impacts. This affords you extra margin for error when you're experimenting with the ragged edge of control. It's a design that's well matched by the incredibly capable Rockshox Monarch Plus RC3 DebonAir rear shock, which has been redesigned to offer even better small-bump compliance than its predecessor. And you'll find the same collet-style pivot hardware that's become standard for Santa Cruz's suspension bikes. This means that your pivots stay tight, and are easily serviceable by home mechanics.
Santa Cruz's industry-leading carbon fiber construction is on display here as well. Both the front and rear triangles are constructed as a whole, rather than bonding them together from sub-assemblies. With this process, the fibers remain uninterrupted by seams, maximizing strength on an already notoriously bulletproof frame. Additionally, the inside of the tubes have the same perfectly smooth finish as the outside thanks to maximum the compaction of the layers. The benefit is that it's lighter, because any excess epoxy is squeezed from the frame prior to curing. And testing has proven that this provides the ideal degree of compaction, further enhancing frame strength.
As compared to previous iterations of the Nomad, it's safe to say that this is the most aggressive version yet. The head angle has been relaxed to an ultra-stable 65 degrees. Rear wheel travel has been increased to 165mm. By doing away with the need for a front derailleur, the chainstays have been shortened to a highly responsive 17.1 inches—no small feat when considering that the wheel size has grown to 27.5 inches. In keeping with modern bike fit, the reach measurements have grown by a full inch per size to provide adequate reach with today's shorter stems. The result is a bike that's most at home charging full-bore into hair-raising terrain. And while it yields stability traditionally reserved for downhill bikes, the 6.2 pound frame weight, combined with steeper seat tube angles, means that it's surprisingly pleasant to pedal back up for another lap.
As the name implies, the XX1 build features SRAM's 11-speed XX1 groupset. By using a massive 10-42 cassette, you're able to get a gearing range that's similar to a traditional double chainring drivetrain, without the need for a front derailleur. Suspension duties are handled by Rock Shox, with a Pike RCT3 up front, and a Monarch Plus RTC3 out back. This has become perhaps our favorite suspension package for aggressive use, thanks to the combination of controlled stroke, and plush feel. Stopping is provided by Shimano's venerable XTR Trail brakeset. You'll find a Race Face SIXC carbon fiber handlebar, held in place with a Race Face Atlas stem. The staff favorite Rockshox Reverb Stealth six inch dropper post puts control of your saddle height at your fingertips. Rounding out the build kit is a set of ENVE's borderline magical M70 rims, laced to DT Swiss 240 hubs. Naturally, they're color matched to the frame—after all, if you're going to ride what may very well be the world's finest wheelset, it can't hurt to consider every last detail. They're wrapped in Maxxis High Roller II tires, which have developed a loyal following for their fast rolling and incredible grip across a broad range of trail conditions.
The Santa Cruz Nomad XX1 Enve Complete Mountain Bike is available in four sizes, from Small, to X-Large, and in the colors Matte Black/gloss black, and Turquoise/pink.

Color: Aqua Blue Frame, Magenta decals
Shock: Rockshox Vivid Air R2C
Fork: Fox 36 Rc2 160 Kashima

I contacted with your two service guys who promised to answer me,while, one said nothing about the special customized, another one give no response till now。I already forward the email to you.
Enduro Machine
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This spring I got a chance to take this bike for a spin in Demo Forest, Santa Cruz's back yard. WOW! If I had to describe this bike, I'd call it a cross country downhill bike. I've nicknamed it the unicorn bike because it shouldn't exist (and maybe the color). I spend a week in British Columbia racing BC bike race not too long ago and a rider on this bike passed me on both climbs and descents- I was racing in the top 10% (top 5% in Enduro category). I was on an XC race bike. This wouldn't be my top choice for racing uphill, but it does pedal better than anything else in its category. This will definitely be my next bike- along with a 29 hardtail for racing.
If you're familiar with the wallowing in the older Nomad's middle range or travel, that's completely gone. Top to bottom things are smoother and more supple while adding greatly increasing efficiency.
How many of you guys on this photo actually OWN this specific bike for this bike review? Seriously...
Very Impressive!
I have had the opportunity of riding this bike several times and I must say I love the ride quality. The downfall of a lot of all mountain bikes is that they can be cumbersome-especially when it comes to climbing. Not this mountain goat! It climbs the stairway to heaven as well as it bombs down hill. This is largely due to the lighter frame and slack angles. Definitely an all day bike. Comparing it to the Bronson its a no brainer on which cream rises to the top. I would highly recommend this bike and its sure to make you an enduro winning machine!
If you have specific questions on the bike feel free to reach out to me direct at 801-736-6396 x 4074 or firstname.lastname@example.com

So, with an extra inch of reach, does the fit change significantly from the last nomad to this new one? I'm 5' 10" and are on the cusp of m/l. The '12 large is a great fit with a short stem, but worrying that + 1" reach might be too much.

The one person who might be able to help is also the one person Gus would never ask - his daughter, Mickey, an associate at a high-powered Atlanta law firm whose drive and ambition has put her on the fast track to becoming partner.

People come and people go. I walk amongst them, I see their faces; but none see mine. I pass them in the streets but nary a glance is spared my way, for what interest would they have in a Wanderer? Not of this world... Forever Alone... Forever Wandering... LoneWandererD...
