"Tongli" Top 5 Page for this destination Tongli by Willettsworld
Tongli Travel Guide: 44 reviews and 228 photos
Tongli is located about 18km (11 miles) south-east of Suzhou in the east of China. It was originally named Fushi (rich land) before being renamed Tongli meaning copper village during the Tang dynasty (618-907 A.D.). The town is a delightful water town with a wonderful system of small canals and bridges which flow past traditional Chinese houses. As well as this, the old town features a few lovely gardens which are in the same mould as the ones you find in Suzhou. Getting here is very simple from Suzhou and only takes 45 minutes by bus and makes for a great day out from the big city.

On this day in 2011, a tornado ripped through Minneapolis' Near North neighborhood, damaging homes, tearing down trees and blocking streets. Amid the chaos, KMOJ-FM DJ Ray Richardson, then a Pioneer Press Timberwolves beat reporter and part-time DJ, and co-host Chantel Sings made their way to their regular Sunday night shift at the station and, using a generator, kept the assuring old-school R&B coming as cleanup began. "We knew people might need the music, get their mind off the stress, but we spent our breaks talking about the damage," giving out information and taking phone calls from people who needed help, Richardson said. Now that's soul. — Lisa Legge, @LLeggeMSP

Putting Nature in the Nexus: Investing in Natural Infrastructure to Advance Water-Energy-Food Security
Nature is the unseen dimension of the nexus. With its functions integral to the three securities and their inter-dependence, nature is part of the infrastructure needed to manage the nexus and its resilience. Nature helps mediate the nexus links, by storing, moving, cleaning and buffering flows of water, making drought and flood less severe, and food and energy production more reliable. Without healthy ecosystems in well-functioning watersheds, the infrastructure built for irrigation, hydropower or municipal water supply does not function sustainably, and is unlikely to achieve the economic returns necessary to justify investments.

Very nice park, right on the Yellowstone! Beautiful grounds and clean bath houses. Lot spacing is nearby with sunny/open exposures. Site surfaces are asphalt and grass, featuring a picnic table. Will return! - 78Airstream
Sep 2015 - $46.00
The park is very nice, all the spaces being gravel with a small patch of grass separating you and your neighbor. The best spaces are the back-ins on the south end of the park, the center grouping is your typical pull-through but the north end has some very nice back-in sites in sets of two laying in a V shape which works very nice when traveling with another group. It gives you a very large grassy area between rigs for sharing an evening cocktail or two together.
The only disappointing/frustrating issue was that when we arrived the south end back-in site that we had reserved in May (which was one of the main reasons we decided to stay at this park) was not available. Apparently they had forgot to write my reservation down for that space "but they were very sorry" and proceeded to stick us in the middle of all the other pull-through sites. It just seems that no matter how much planning/organizing and confirming you do to set up your road trips you're always at the mercy of the weakest link on the other end of the phone, so you end up disappointed and frustrated but feeling better because they were very sorry!
We stayed here in a 36' RV with tow car. The access in/out and around was easy to maneuver. - Dazed and Confused
Sep 2015 - $46.00
This is our first time to Montana and we wanted to see Yellowstone and try our luck at fly-fishing, it's why we picked this park, it's 31 miles to the north entrance to the park. Like others have said it's a great park, great staff nice and clean and I can walk out and try my hand at fly-fishing right from our site. We've signed up to stay for two weeks and if you pay for six days you get the seventh free. No cable or TV reception is the only down side, but with so much to do and see it's not a problem. WiFi is just OK at times like late afternoon and evenings, but mid mornings it worked great. Now if I can only catch a fish. - Traveler II

Georgetown announces largest gift in history
Georgetown University today announced the largest donation in its history, valued at $87 million, to support medical research.
From the release:
"The gift originated in a $1.2 million charitable trust established by the will of the late Harry J. Toulmin in 1965. His widow, businesswoman and philanthropist Virginia Toulmin of Dayton, Ohio, and Sarasota, Fla., managed the trust for the following 45 years and grew it to its current value. A longtime Georgetown volunteer leader, she died on June 13 at age 84."

A duplex in Vancouver's Lincoln neighborhood was damaged by a fire Saturday evening.
The fire was reported about 7:30 p.m. at 3915 Creston Ave., just west of Main Street. The fire started when food cooking in a microwave oven overheated. However, when firefighters arrived they quickly discovered that the flames had spread from the microwave oven into a vent, the kitchen cabinets, and up into the rafters, said Capt. Matt Krussow of the Vancouver Fire Department.
Firefighters were able to bring the fire under control in about 10 minutes, according to emergency radio traffic monitored at The Columbian. Damage was significant enough to render the unit temporarily uninhabitable. A pile of debris was removed from the home and soaked down by firefighters. The power had to be shut off, and firefighters had to use a power saw to make holes so they could gain access to the attic fire.
According to county property records, the unit is single-story duplex built in 1959 and owned by Ty Stanton of Kihei, Hawaii.
The Vancouver Fire Department was assisted by Clark County Fire District 6. Approximately 20 firefighters and a battalion chief were on the scene, with four engines and a ladder truck.

TILE AND GROUT CLEANING by ALL CLEAN!
Your tile and grout are porous and are notorious for holding in a lot of dirt! The first thing we do is spray an alkaline cleaning solution (Procyon Tile and Grout Cleaner) which is 100% environmentally safe and 100% non-toxic, onto your tile and grout. Procyon penetrates deep inside your tile and grout loosening up the dirt that has probably been there for years. After a few minutes of dwell time we then flush out the dirt (and the Procyon) from your tile and grout using clean water at over 200 degrees Fahrenheit and at about 1,000 psi. Very hot water will come into your home through a high pressure line hose at about 1,000 psi., spraying into your tile and grout and forcing the dirt out of the porous floor. All that dirt is immediately sucked right back out into our van, leaving you with very clean tile and grout. It's kind of like a pressure washing that all happens inside the blue tile and grout cleaning tool you see in the pictures on this page. The process is so thorough it's guaranteed to pass the white glove test! With this first step alone; we often see the greatest improvement, as this VIDEO and the pictures on this page demonstrate.
"We are so pleased with the results! Our kitchen floor [tile] looks amazing and the carpets are fluffy again."
Mary Beth O. – Bucks County, PA
Once the dirt is removed we can then tell if your grout lines are stained. If so, you may want us to do an acid cleaning. Cleaning with acid will remove stains typically found around sinks, stoves, dishwashers, refrigerators, and eating areas. Since staining is usually in the middle of the spectrum; acid cleaning makes black grout lines blacker and light grout lines whiter and brighter. The acid is applied directly to the grout, dwells for a few minutes, and then is extracted back into our cleaning van. We typically see about a 10% improvement with an acid cleaning. This isn't always the case though because sometimes we find grout lines that are mostly stained and not having as much dirt as others. It all depends on your type of floor and how it has been used and maintained over the years. If you schedule a tile and grout cleaning with ALL CLEAN!, there will be no obligation whatsoever to do this second step. If you'd like; we can do a little experiment first on a few grout lines to determine if the acid cleaning step is worth the additional expense to you. BTW: We always perform this step of acid cleaning when cleaning bathrooms. Staining on bathroom floors is inevitable and with an acid cleaning we often see tremendous results.
If after the first and second steps you find your tile and grout looking pristine – like it did when it was first installed – you may want to then consider sealing your grout lines. Grout sealing is exactly as the name implies. Your porous grout lines are sealed, making them less penetrable to dirt and stains. If you're going to seal your grout lines though, I always recommend both steps 1 and 2 prior to grout sealing in order to achieve the best results possible. This is because not only will future dirt be sealed out, but any preexisting dirt or stains will be sealed in as well. We always want to make your grout look its very best before doing a sealing of your grout lines.

Parametre Space Dividers by 3form
We were impressed with these at NeoCon, but have been waiting to blog them until they were available to the public. We just got the email that the Parametre site is up and ready for business, so here goes...
These soft wall room dividers that are lightweight, expandable and usable both horizontally or vertically, indoors and out.
Chilewich Woodgrain Plynyl at NeoCon
So good in person. The new woodgrain plynyl from Chilewich is most definitely not cheesy.
When we first read about the new plynyl, the old knotty wood Contact paper is what came to mind (which we do kinda love on its own merits, btw), but when we saw the entire booth done up at NeoCon we realized this is faux-woodsy in a whole new way.
IKEA at NeoCon
The Swedish giant was well represented at NeoCon, promoting their lower-cost alternatives for contract work to designers.
Judging from the crowd at their booth the interest level was high. Calculators were out and lots of business cards were flying.
Jane Hamley Wells at NeoCon
(NeoCon is the annual commercial interiors show held in Chicago. We attended last week and will be blogging trends and finds that can make the leap into the home.)
One of the award winners at the recent NeoCon 2007 was the Splinter chair by Winnipeg-based designer Matthew Kroeker for Chicago's Jane Hamley Wells.
Allermuir at NeoCon
(NeoCon is the annual commercial interiors show held in Chicago. We attended yesterday and will be blogging trends and finds that can make the leap into the home.)
Molo is known for its Softwall room divider. A piece both beautiful and utilitarian, the honeycomb structure is a forgiving and flexible way to divide space, dampen sound and diffuse light. The Molo booth at NeoCon was one of the best: not huge, but because of the flexibility of Molo's products, the look was constantly refreshed as the representatives opened and closed walls and furniture, showing off the goods.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Washington Nationals have delayed opening the gates before their game against the Arizona Diamondbacks because of the earthquake that rattled the East Coast.
Team officials were checking the stadium for damage before letting fans in Tuesday night. There was no immediate word on whether the game might be delayed from its 7:05 p.m. start.
Parts of the White House, Capitol and Pentagon were evacuated after the magnitude-5.8 quake, which was centered 40 miles northwest of Richmond, Va.

Michigan Lawmakers Adopt Property Rights; Eminent-Domain Restrictions Go to Voters
Byline: Joyce Howard Price, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
The Michigan Legislature has become the first in the nation to adopt a proposed constitutional amendment that would prohibit the government from taking private property from its owner and giving it to a private interest for economic-development purposes or to increase tax revenues.
Both houses of the Michigan Legislature overwhelmingly adopted the resolution Tuesday.
The signature of Gov. Jennifer M. Granholm, a Democrat, is not required. The resolution now goes to the Office of the Michigan Secretary of State for placement on the Michigan ballot in November.
"This is a solid constitutional amendment. Michigan has a bad track record of eminent-domain abuse, and the proposed amendment goes a long way toward stopping these practices," said Scott Bullock, a senior lawyer at the Institute for Justice, a public-interest law firm.
"We are confident that the citizens of Michigan will overwhelmingly approve this amendment," said Steven Anderson, coordinator of the Castle Coalition, the institute's grass-roots advocacy project. The coalition's name comes from the adage "Your home is your castle."
Lawmakers in four other states - Alabama, Delaware, Texas and Ohio - have passed legislation designed to limit abuse of eminent domain since the U. …

To start out, Douthat wrote Bad Religion in which he, amongst many other things, chronicled the death of progressive Christianity.
He then wrote a Sunday column for the NYT about the death of liberal Christianity.
Next, a handful of responses appeared.
Matt Anderson offered this Oliver O'Donovan-influenced response:
If O'Donovan is right that liberalism "treats the moral questions of the age as moral certainties," then it means Ross's suggestion that liberal Christians should pause amidst their renovations to consider "what they would defend and offer uncompromisingly to the world" will not have an audience that could consider it and still hold on to the core principles of liberalism as such. As Stephen Holmes puts it, "Giving priority to personal experience will inevitably lead to the embracing of an ethic that reflects the general ethic of the culture to which (the majority of) the denomination's members belong."
Yes, it does. But it also makes self-critique problematic, for to do so is simply to call our experience into question and judge it according to a standard beyond it. The strong self-congratulatory streak among younger evangelicals is as good a sign as any that we are fast down the liberal trail.
Of course, O'Donovan's theological analysis should be offset with Ross's social observationsabout the decline of mainline Protestantism's prestige. After all, the moral intutions to which the mainline Protestants have sought to appeal are not any moral intuitions. They have saved plenty of scorn for conservative ones, after all, some of which doubtlessly count as those included within "the world" that O'Donovan says is at the heart of the liberal theological affirmation. The broad theological point needs to be more narrowly circumscribed so that it takes into account the institutional influence that mainline Protestants once enjoyed, an influence that the "change or die" narrative must perpetually remind the world of for its transformational force.
Diana Butler Bass argued that Douthat's got it all wrong:
The real question is not "Can liberal Christianity be saved?" The real question is: Can Christianity be saved?
Liberal Christians experienced this decline sooner than their conservative kin, thus giving them a longer, more sustained opportunity to explore what faith might mean to twenty-first century people. Introspective liberal churchgoers returned to the core of the Christian vision: Jesus' command to "Love God and love your neighbor as yourself." As a result, a sort of neo-liberal Christianity has quietly taken root across the old Protestant denominations–a form of faith that cares for one's neighbor, the common good, and fosters equality, but is, at the same time, a transformative personal faith that is warm, experiential, generous, and thoughtful. This new expression of Christianity maintains the historic liberal passion for serving others but embraces Jesus' injunction that a vibrant love for God is the basis for a meaningful life. These Christians link spirituality with social justice as a path of peace and biblical faith.
Unexpectedly, liberal Christianity is–in some congregations at least–undergoing renewal. A grass-roots affair to be sure, sputtering along in local churches, prompted by good pastors doing hard work and theologians mostly unknown to the larger culture. Some local congregations are growing, having seriously re-engaged practices of theological reflection, hospitality, prayer, worship, doing justice, and Christian formation. A recent study from Hartford Institute for Religion Research discovered that liberal congregations actually display higher levels of spiritual vitality than do conservative ones, noting that these findings were "counter-intuitive" to the usual narrative of American church life.
David Koyzis responds at Evangel.
Thus far, the liberal approach has succeeded in emptying the pews, despite the rhetoric of inclusivity. As it turns out, a church whose message is indistinguishable from that of the larger culture and refrains from calling to repentance and conversion quickly finds itself becoming redundant. Why bother getting up early on sunday morning for such thin spiritual gruel? Bass may be correct in noting the presence of vitality in some liberal congregations. But mere liveliness can be found in a variety of settings, including workplaces and garden clubs. It's not an argument for the church as such.
The "conservative" approach may be winning more people at present, but long-term prospects remain in doubt. Many of today's most successful mega-churches are heirs of the 19th-century "New Measures" revivalism of Charles Finney which places an emphasis on the use of clever techniques, including the notorious Anxious Bench, to elicit huge numbers of "conversions." If Michael Horton's analysis is correct, Finney himself appears to have held to a moral example view of Christ's atonement. The "conservatives" may be standing unknowingly on the same shaky ground that is failing to support the liberals.
What if the church were to subordinate concern for numbers, budgets, and social and political causes to the primary imperative of biblical faithfulness? What if it were to place its concern for bringing in converts within the larger context of the call to live the new life in the power of the Holy Spirit? The church might be smaller or larger than it is today. Its members would not be ignoring social and political issues; in fact they might increase their engagement with these. But they would do so along lines that recognize the clear authority of God's written word over the whole of life. They would be pursuing not just personal moral effort, nor social justice as understood in a narrowly ideological sense. They would seek instead to advance the kingdom in all its fulness through unwavering fidelity to the cause of Christ, consisting of properly oriented – dare I say "converted" – labour, leisure, liturgy and life.
Steve Holmes, of St. Andrews in Aberdeen, offered a particularly interesting response:
That said, Douthat's piece seems to me to be built on a fundamental misapprehension; he asserts that 'the defining idea of liberal Christianity' is 'that faith should spur social reform as well as personal conversion' and laments the possible loss of this idea from American national life. As a definition of liberal Christianity, this is astonishingly misdirected; indeed, it might better serve as a definition of classical Evangelicalism, which was, and increasingly is again, precisely about the combination of personal and social transformation in the name of the gospel. Someone might attempt a historical account in which this evangelical holism was lost in both directions, with conservatives holding on to the need for personal conversion and liberals holding on to the need for social transformation, but I don't see this as being in any way plausible; classical evangelicalism was already defined against a liberal tradition, that had its own clear intellectual position, and that in turn rejected the evangelical position. Further, it does not hold even in relatively recent history, at least in the UK (I suspect it does not in the USA either, but my knowledge of the history there is less sure): in the face of mass immigration from the West Indies in the 1950s, for instance, the mainstream liberal churches were fairly uniformly racist; the reactions of evangelical churches were mixed, but at least some did in fact open their doors and welcome their new black neighbours.
To which Douthat wrote a reply:
Upon reflection "defining" was probably the wrong word to use, and I should have described the link between Christian faith and social reform as liberal Christianity's most "influential" idea instead — and been clearer that I was talking specifically about the American context. Liberal Christianity begins exactly where Holmes says it does: In the faith's encounter with the challenges of modernity, and the quest for a ground for contemporary belief that doesn't just rely on rote appeals to the authority of scripture or tradition. However, this quest has gone in different directions in different times and places, and in the United States from the late-19th onward, it found its most important and enduring expression in the Social Gospel idea that Christianity would be vindicated in an age of science and skepticism to the extent that it confronted social evils as well as private sins, and made the kingdom of heaven more visible on earth. Certainly other theological traditions, Catholic as well as evangelical, have linked personal conversion and social reform; certainly liberal Christianity can't be reduced to that link and that link alone. But for a long time, from the era of Walter Rauschenbusch down to the era of Martin Luther King, Jr., the liberal churches had good reason to see themselves as the primary custodians of a socially-engaged Christianity. Indeed, the historical importance of their role explains why many religiously-literate Americans today still simply conflate "liberal Christianity" with "the religion of Christians who are politically liberal." That's far too broad a definition, certainly, and one that gives theologians hives with its capaciousness. But it's also one that reflects the lived reality of American politics and religion for long periods of the twentieth century.
I need to give further thought to the discussion Holmes, Anderson and Douthat are having over the nature of liberal Christianity, but I did want to interact a little with Bass' reply.
In the first place, it's worth noting that most of the growth in evangelicalism is not happening in denominations, but in independent mega churches. And saying that the SBC is shrinking is hard to prove with any certainty. The SBC has been… let's say "fudging on" their membership roles for decades – it's possible that they're simply trying to make their membership roles better agree with what has long been true. Which, of course, points to the problem with arguing from statistics like that. To some degree, you have to, but you need to be careful not to leap to conclusions.
A couple other points: In the last 15-20 years, evangelical institutions and a few networks of churches have made major strides. Sovereign Grace Ministries and Acts 29 are just two of these groups, both of which are church planting networks that have experienced a lot of growth in recent years. My own denomination, the Presbyterian Church in America, is also growing (slowly, but we are growing). Our campus ministry, Reformed University Fellowship, which is only about 20 years old is also growing. We added 62 new interns this year and launched four new chapters of RUF.
What's more, the last 15 years have seen two evangelicals rise to chaired positions in the Notre Dame department of History, another evangelical become the President of Wake Forest University, Baylor University's rise as a major evangelical research university, Wheaton's Alan Jacobs' rise to prominence with multiple releases with Oxford Press, the creation of the Torrey Institute at Biola University, James Davison Hunter's continued work with the Institute of Advanced Studies at the University of Virginia, the emergence of Houston Baptist as another evangelical academic hub, the creation of the Consortium of Christian Study Centers, the creation of Books & Culture, an evangelical version of The New Republic or some similar publication, and the rise of Tim Keller's Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan.
Point being: There is no shortage of people predicting the decline of evangelicalism. And seen one way, those predictions don't appear completely off base. But when you look at the health of our top institutions and the increased presence of evangelicals in culturally elite places, those claims look increasingly tenuous.

i have 175mm bontrager sport triple crank arms. I want to switch to 170mm since i'm a spinner not a masher. also, longer crank arms tend to bother my knees.
i'm having a heck of a time finding just replacement crank arms. personally, i'm not into the proprietary components that trek and specialized use. i'd like to go with another, lighter make/model.
i've been searching the forums for links to on-line parts stores. i really can't find what i'm looking for. hell, even the bontrager website doesn't list info on their atb components. i can't find anything on the "sport" model specs. also, i can't find info on my bb on the trek site. i guess the crankset includes the bb and rings so they are all bontrager "sports."
a few questions;
anyone know where i can get the specs on my bontrager sport crankset?
anyone know what other brands are compatible?
anyone know where i can buy them?....i've found just the arms on ebay but i don't thing they're compatible.

It's not really a hybrid, in the sense that each cell has a mixture of chicken/duck DNA. They used premordial germ cells (PGC), which are basically cells that can differentiate into reproductive cells, among other types - so it's more accurate to describe the duck as having a mixture of discretely chicken and duck cells, they are chimeras. Only 30% of the PGC's transferred actually ended up in sex organs, so the duck might have chicken cells in its brain and other organs. But it's more or less just a duck with chicken sperm. What's amazing is how they accomplished this without any genetic modification to the duck or chicken - the two species are compatible enough for this to occur naturally.

JUN BO Chinese Restaurant: "Huge Selection-Try the Value Meals Choices" Bloomington Restaurant Tip by Tugboatguy
Bloomington Restaurants: 3 reviews and 6 photos
This very large Chinese restaurant just opposite the 494 Freeway from the la QUINTA Inn where I stayed is actually just inside the adjacent town of Richfield, Minnesota, but close enough to Bloomintoon to be handy and considered for lunch or dinner and open seven days a week. Extensive menu will also require study but let me suggest the Value Meals choices. There are three Value Meal choices, depending on number of people and their hungriness. Somewhat less expensive than David Fong's.
Jun Bo's Value Meals offer a wide choice of soups (4), appetizers (8) and entrees (90) of one each for Value Meal 1 for $9.95. Value Meal 2 adds a second entree choice for total $14.95 . Value Meal 3 adds choice of two appetizers from the 8 possible and three entrees from the 90 for a total price of $19.95. So, Value meals 2 or 3 may be shared by a party of two or three diners. All menu items are available for takeout. Soups and entrees on the third page of the takeout menu are not available for Value Meal selection. These include BBQ ribs, half roast duck, lobster, clams, and various other fish seafoods, congees (congers?) and noodle, fish, pork, crab, beef or other seafood soups. Prices range to $30 for the lobster.
The large room had mixed tables of Asian and Caucasian parties eating together which bespoke authenticity of the cooking. Friendly, efficient service from all-Asian employees in a clean, bright atmosphere. Excellent tasting Chinese food with ample portions.
Hours: 11 am to 9:30 pm Mon-Fri. 10 am to 9:30 Sat-Sun.
Favorite Dish: I chose Mongolian Beef entree with steamed white rice and cup of Hot & Sour soup choice. This Value Meal included appetizer choice which I chose grilled chicken white meat pieces on two spits-this is a LOT of food! Plentiful and flavorful beef and vegetables including crisp water chestnuts, onions and greens in sauce. Refreshing ice water refilled and hot green tea. I recommend you try Jun Bo if wishing authentic Chinese food favorably priced.
Address: 7717 Nicollet Avenue, Richfield, MN 55423
Price Comparison: less expensive than average
Directions: Located at the 494 Freeway Nicollet Ave. offramp north one half block from the east. If coming from the west, take the Nicollet Ave. offramp and turn left at top of ramp over the freeway to Jun Bo on your right. Large parking lot.
Phone: 612 866-6888
Price: less than US$10
Rating: 4
Theme: Chinese/Dim Sum

Thanks for the advice and well wishes guys.
I only took pain meds once, it was after surgery and right before the in-hospital PT. The PT said it'll be easier for me to do the PT if I take some pain meds so I took it. They gave me a perscription and I have the bottle at home but I haven't needed it yet. It never hurts so much that it consumes me. The first week was the worst in terms of sleeping. Sleeping is just horrible flat out....
Being on crutches sucks pretty bad, especially if its going to be 6 months like my surgeon recommended. You don't realize how much you need your hands until you are on crutches.
Want to move the coffee cup from the kitchen to the computer table? lol nope.
Want to carry a grocery bag? lol nope.
Want to carry a notebook without a backpack? lol nope.
Want to hold the door open so you can walk in? lol nope.
I saw an escalator the other day and had to walk like 1/4 mile to the elevator instead. I can walk up and down the stairs no problem(just takes awhile), but I would be nervous as hell on the escalator in case I didn't get off in time.
I am considering getting one of those disabled parking pass things but my pride is telling me no.
The sides of my chest hurt from walking on crutches all over.
-Cat-3-o-meter: TBD :/
I remember going to the hospital, asking the security guard if it was okay for me to park in a handicap stall because I was in crutches. He said no, so I had to park in general, which gave me a kilometer walk. Going to back to the car, in crutches, I remember a car following me for 5 minutes so they could take my spot. No offer for a ride, just following me as closely as they could.
People don't really give you any concessions when on crutches. I expected it because that's what I did, but most people aren't as civil.
Old people hold the door for me, young ppl don't care. I rather no one held anything for me, I rather be independent and not rely on anyone...but I'm weird haha.
-Cat-3-o-meter: TBD :/
Hello ovoleg, don't know how I missed this when it happened AND when you posted it. I was there that day but I got hammered at the start of the Masters race and was OTB practicing my time trial position on my road bike. Had no idea that anyone hit the deck on that corner that day, much less you.
Sounds like your being careful with your recovery and I am very sorry to read about the extent of your injuries.
Can't tell you how many (tens of?) thousands of miles I've raced on that course. That is the most difficult corner on the course but my educated guess is that there are as many crashes in the other corners as there are in that one. Statistically, it's not particularly dangerous.
Continue to take care and heal up.
willzzz is still showing up every week. Didn't realize that he was initially getting a ride home from you.

Komrade ask a PT or a doctor, preferable PT, how to use crutches properly and make sure they are adjusted for your height.
I see hills.... Bring them on!!!
Stay calm and bring a towel.
I value the experience in the thread but I'm not convinced that it was all my fault going into that corner. From my POV, I was at the front and I had the Right of Way to go outside into that corner, then all of a sudden this guy appears to the right of me and starts cutting into the line I was going to take. The speed I was going, I could of tried to corner tighter but I wasn't positioned for it. Maybe I'm wrong and he had the right of way coming at me from the outside but this kind of stuff is never learned in any kind of clinic I've ever been in(I've been to 3), or any group ride or race I've been a part of.
2 weeks in now. Swung by the doc and he took the staples out. Says I should be good to start PT soon, says bones heal in 2-3 weeks in young people without osteoperosis or diabetes. I'm eager to get going again and get back on the bike. I'll have to re-evaluate the kind of racing and the amount I'll be doing. This was a pretty serious injury that makes me think a little hard about it all...Still super nervous about getting AVN.
-Cat-3-o-meter: TBD :/
I've definitely been eating freely lately, I figure I need the nutrients and I'll worry about weight loss/etc when I can get back to PT and working out.
-Cat-3-o-meter: TBD :/
It's not a matter of right of way except when you are in the final sprint. Glad you are feeling better.
Still a total bummer that you went down and got seriously hurt, but...remember that structured group ride I mentioned some time ago that you weren't buying? This is where rides like that are totally beneficial. They're instructional and offer a great opportunity to learn, ask questions in a less than 100% competitive environment, etc. The hammer group rides or race rides are great for fitness, but the instruction provided there is usually someone yelling at someone else and no clear instruction on how to prevent the issue from recurring.
Heal up!!
At this point it doesn't matter who's fault it was. Advice was given, some experts have left good tidbits on the table for him.
I still think this may be US blowback for Crimea. If you look closely at the video its not just a normal blinkie on the guys bike; its sending some type of code. Obviously to the government.
I'm glad you plan on coming back. I can't tell you how many times a runner or cyclist has a major injury and the last thing you see is 'I'm having surgery today, see you in xx months!' then they just disappear from the community. My guess is some can't handle losing so much power and rehabbing, others rationalize quitting due to dangers, and others just plain lose interest.
Just be patient on coming back, and don't expect the numbers to be there right away, but they'll come sooner than you think.
Wow. Just seeing this. I'm really sorry to hear that you were injured so badly. I hope your healing is speedy and complete!
Can we change the subject of this thread away from "NECK FRACTURE" - every day I wonder who died before I figure out it's his hip, again.
Maybe it's because he has his head up his ass?
Just kidding!!!!
Nothing like breaking your femur to really invite the abuse.
i was being self-sufficient as much as i could. i drove myself to walgreens to buy crutches. when i got there, i took a close, non-handicapped spot. i realized i couldn't walk but thought i could lean on a nearby cart. it was raining, and a guy saw me hobbling over to it. he brought it to me but then asked what i was going to get inside. when i said 'crutches', he ran inside, got me a wheel chair, then brought crutches to the front counter. just a random guy in the fayetteville, AR, walgreen's parking lot.
at the airport when i returned the rental car, without asking the agent ran off and got a golf cart to drive me to the front entrance. pretty cool.
i was crutching through the airport and carrying my bag (stuff for a week's trip + bike racing). when i was nearly at my gate, someone ran over to me from behind a concession counter. it was a guy i'd' raced with that weekend...he had heard from teammates i was flying out and was watching for me. he helped me to my gate.
i had 2 flights, one with a 30' connection. when i was getting off the plane (i let everyone else off first), an off-duty flight attendant saw me struggling to get my bag. she carried it off the plane, called the connecting gate to tell them i was on the way/hold the plane, and got me a wheelchair.
oddly, the most rude person was a lady who was in a wheelchair for no obvious reason. i say no obvious reason because she was walking around the airport prior to our departure using the wheelchair as a place to store her various packages. we wound up sitting in the same row.
oh yeah, i did this all with a fractured femur. (the medical support at the race had me stand on it (really, really dumb!) and when i did so they said it couldn't be broken.) not sure how i made it home but will-power is a strong thing. the next time i am in a break, riding a TT, doing hard intervals, i will have a different perspective on pain levels.
now that i've got a surgical nail in there it is painful but any pain is so much easier to bear given the last few days. i try to take value from everything, and those couple of days with a cracked femur will definitely serve me in some way in the future.
just my opinion, but then again i was the guy doing isometric exercises in pre-op the other day, and when i woke of from surgery was doing the same.
it takes lots of focus to lose weight, so perhaps consider not gaining it in the first place.
a humble suggestion, nothing more.
wow. your attitude is very admirable. I know to whom i need to turn when i need a lemon converted into lemonade
What an interesting slice of America you got to experience.

A Center Grove area woman reported a man attempted to break into her home while she was there.
When the man attempted to use his shoulder to ram his way through the front door, the woman ran to a bedroom and called 911. The man ran away without getting into the house, according to a report from the Johnson County Sheriff's Office.
The attempted break-in happened just after 10:30 a.m. Tuesday in the 2800 block of Saddle Club Road. The man knocked first on the front door and then on an outside kitchen door, but the woman did not answer. Then the man returned to the front door and tried to get into the home by hitting the door with his shoulder, the report said.
The man had left when sheriff's deputies got to the home. The resident described him as in his early 20s and about 5-foot-8. A tree-trimming crew working nearby on Stones Crossing Road reported seeing a black pickup truck with two men inside that had passed by minutes before officers arrived at the home. Officers could not find the vehicle, the report said.
Residents should not ignore knocks on the door, Johnson County Sheriff Doug Cox said in a news release. Burglars will often knock and see whether someone is home. If there is no answer, the burglar will then attempt to break into the house. Residents should speak to the person through the door, Cox said in the release.

In four raids, an interagency narcotics task force, based in Greene County, Virginia, has arrested eight people on state and federal charges.
The raids, three in Greene County and one in Charlottesville, were executed with four search warrants on June 1 as part of an operation code-named "Karma," police said.
The raids followed an 18-month investigation into narcotic distribution, selling and manufacturing related offenses.
Seven of the eight subjects were arrested immediately and an eighth turned himself in the following day. No one was injured during the execution of the warrants, police said.
Initiated by the Greene County Sheriff's Office, the task force included cooperation between the FBI, DEA, Local Narcotics and Gang Task Forces, and the United States Attorney's Office, according to a statement from the sheriff's office in Stanardsville.
The operation began to form following a traffic stop by Major Randall Snead of the sheriff's office in March, said Investigator Tanner Harvey of the Blue Ridge Narcotics and Gang Task Force. A "significant amount of crack cocaine" was discovered.
"Many of the individuals arrested are well known and have been alleged to have been involved in the drug trade in Greene County and surrounding areas for many years," said Sheriff Scott Haas. "The individuals arrested in this case, in many ways were the head of the business decisions as it relates to the drug trade and other criminal mischief in Greene County."
Because it's an ongoing investigation, no names were released.
Haas said there will be more arrests as the operation continues.
