Stolp also says the three had no memory of the event. More than 20 people were sickened by carbon monoxide poisoning at an off-campus apartment complex on Sunday. Two people are in critical condition. A Springfield, Va., woman whose daughter was killed in last spring's shootings on the Virginia Tech campus endured a new terror with the latest incident. Her younger daughter had just moved into the complex, but she was not injured.

I've found a pretty excellent deal on the Swobo Crosby and am considering buying one. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this bike. I plan on using it to commute, ride around the city, and for recreational riding.
This bike is fairly new and I can't find many reviews of this bike. On paper this looks like a great bike, is it? Please let me know your opinions.

CUMMING, Ga. (AP) _ The city of Cumming plans to start pulling tons of silt and soil from the bottom of Georgia's Lake Lanier so it can keep supplying water to 200-thousand homes and businesses in Forsyth County.
The process could cost $1 million dollars.
It's the second emergency measure taken by Cumming, a city that sits on Lake Lanier, as water levels have dropped to an all-time low.
The city has already spent $250-thousand dollars extending a water withdrawal pipe into the middle of the lake to capture the 16 million gallons of water that the city's customers use on an average day.
The next step will be to bring in a barge and begin the process of dredging the lake to 1,030 feet above sea level, or 10 feet deeper than its current bottom. That will allow the city to move its intake 10 feet deeper.
City manager Gerald Blackburn says the city is using emergency funds to pay for the projects, adding, "We'll do whatever we have to.''

Has anyone had their membranes stripped in a previous pregnancy?
How painful was it?
Was it effective?
Has anyone had their membranes stripped in a previous pregnancy?
How painful was it?
Was it effective?
With my first born, I was due May 8th. I remember this clearly because my mom's bday is May 1st. I had my doc strip my membranes on May 1st. It HURT sooo bad! And I felt crampy afterwards and was spotting. I really thought it was going to work and I was going into labor on my mom's bday!
BUT he ended up coming May 14th... he was a week overdue :(
I have also heard of ladies whose water broke right in the exam room due to stripping the membranes. So I just think it depends on when that baby wants to come out. It didn't help me at all though.
Baby Boy 5/14/07
Baby Boy 5/25/09
Surprise Baby Girl - Rockin' an Extra Chromosome 1/4/13
I had it done at 40 weeks with both babies and it didn't do anything. It didn't hurt at all, just slightly uncomfortable. I did have some cramping for a day or so but that was it. When I went back in at 41 weeks, she did it again and both times I went into labor that day. So, I think if your body is ready it might help you along, but if not I don't think it does much.
Amy, wife to Chris
SAHM to Jack Christopher, 8-25-09, Sydney Rae 04-14-11 and Brooke Rylie 1-23-13!
With #1 they stripped me at 37weeks and I had her that day
With #2 the stripped me at 36/37/38 weeks and nothing happened. I gave birth at 39 weeks exactly
Member since Sept '08 ~ New name! :)
est. 7/05 ~MC 11/05~ DD 10/06 DS 11/07 DS 3/09 DS 7/11
I had my membranes stripped with my 2nd baby, because my DH was going to leave to start a job 4 hours away the next week...and I really didn't want him to miss the baby's birth.
My midwife first checked to see if my body was close to going into labor naturally- which it was, I was 70% effaced, 3 cm dilated...so she did it. It didn't hurt, it just felt like a pelvic exam. She said that's another clue that your body is ready- if it hurts, your body probably isn't ready.
I did have moderate cramping the rest of the day.
I went into labor the day after that, at 39 weeks.
Not painful... had it done twice... Not effective.
this exact post was on here yesterday... search for it and you will get a lot of other opinions and responses!

I'm looking to purchase my first bike since my old BMX days and have decided on a hybrid.
I looked at the Cannondale Quick series and I wanted to get some opinions on if the Quick 3 is worth the extra $230 over the Quick 4?
I believe the main difference is really the hydroformed frame.
Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

text: I was watching a show on television which was showing the new Sony Xperia P. I liked the smartphone and I am planning to buy it maybe in next month. I was discussing about it with one of friend he told me that he had seen the demonstration of it. He also said that there is some problem with the reception and the signal in the phone. According to him, the signal drops frequently. Is it true about Sony Xperia P or does any specific service provider faces this problem when used with Sony Xperia P?

(Re: April 30 editorial, "Amendment clarifies freeze: Measure gets little PR.")
I appreciated this "refresher course" on school tax legislation, including your endorsement of Proposition 1.
This year, the No.1 priority for the Texas Silver Haired Legislature is to get senior and disabled homeowners included in last year's school property tax reduction.
The TSHL is a non-partisan group of seniors, elected from all over Texas to represent senior interests to the Texas Legislature. Many of TSHL's recommendations eventually become bills, like Proposition 1.
Some years ago, seniors and the disabled were given some protection against higher school property taxes so they would not be "taxed out of their own homes." But when they were "left out" of last year's tax reduction, this protection was eroded.
Lawmakers increased other kinds of taxes - from which seniors and the disabled are not exempt - to help pay for the tax reduction given to everyone else.
In order for elderly and disabled Texans whose taxes are frozen to receive a proportional reduction in school property taxes, an amendment to the Texas Constitution is necessary.
Without it, seniors and the disabled will continue paying for a school tax reduction without receiving its benefit.

Rep. Rick Boucher (D-VA) and Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-FL) will today release the text of a long-anticipated online privacy bill, The Wall Street Journal reports. A year in the making, the bill regulates data collection and ad targeting practices and, according to reports, would apply to online and offline ad targeting activities. For the next two months, the lawmakers will accept comments and will revise the bill before formally introducing it. In previewing the bill at an event on Monday, Boucher noted, "Our purpose is not to interfere with legitimate behavioral advertising, but there is a great deal of concern from Internet users on how their information is being used." Meanwhile, a coalition of public interest groups sent Congress a letter yesterday urging it to enact sweeping online privacy protection. (Editor's note: The bill will be discussed in detail during an IAPP Web conference May 20.)

Woman reports shoulder pain after crashJanuary 02,2013SUNDERLAND — A local woman was injured in a car crash on Monday morning on North Road, according to the Vermont State Police.
Tina Gabert, 46, of Sunderland, was driving north on North Road, near Cobbs Road, in her 2002 Subaru Impreza around 8 a.m. on Monday when she lost control and drove off the road, according to Trooper Justin Walker of the Vermont State Police.
Gabert told troopers that as she crested a hill, she began to lose traction on the snow- and slush-covered road. She said she believed the car may also have hit black ice.
The Impreza crossed into the southbound lane, came back into the northbound lane, went off the shoulder and over a culvert, Walker said.
Gabert reported having shoulder pain and was taken to the Southwestern Vermont Medical Center in Bennington as a precautionary measure.
While road conditions were a factor, troopers said Gabert also had the wrong tires on the vehicle. It had summer tires, which have poor traction in snowy conditions, Walker said.
The Vermont State Police remind drivers to make sure they have the proper tires for winter weather on their vehicles.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON Many of Americas young adults appear to be in no hurry to move out of their old...

Oklahoma scene: Keilani Ricketts throws no-hitter, OU opens softball season with two routs
Oklahoma opened the softball season like a No. 2-ranked team probably should — with two dominating wins.
Keilani Ricketts threw a no-hitter and the Sooners' thumpers accounted for four homers as OU whipped Stanford 6-0 on Friday at the Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz. In a second game later in the day, Lauren Chamberlain hit two home runs to lead the Sooners to a 14-2 rout of Oregon State.
Ricketts, the 2012 USA Softball Player of the Year, dominated Stanford throughout the seven-inning opener. She walked three but struck out 14. Ricketts, Jessica Shults, Chamberlain and Arizona transfer Shelby Pendley all homered. Shults' homer was a three-run shot during the Sooners' five-run first inning.
Oregon State touched OU starting pitcher Michelle Gascoigne for two runs in the top of the first inning, but it was all Sooners after that. Chamberlain added her second and third homers of the season, and Gascoigne held the Beavers to one hit the rest of the way. OU won the second game in five innings on the mercy rule.
Oklahoma State opened its softball season by splitting two games at the Red Dirt Classic in St. George, Utah. The Cowgirls beat Weber State 2-1 in the opener, then Seattle trimmed OSU 3-2 in the second game. Kat Espinosa, Samantha Chrisman and Simone Freeman each pitched in the first game, holding Weber State to a run on two hits and one walk. The trio combined for eight strikeouts.
Seattle touched OSU's second-game starter, Simone Freeman, for three runs on five hits in three innings.
The University of Central Oklahoma will host the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association Wrestling Championships on Sunday at Hamilton Field House in Edmond. The third-ranked Bronchos will be favored to win the tournament, although defending NCAA Division II champion Nebraska-Kearney could be the spoiler. UCO won the regular season dual championship with a 5-0 record.
The six-team tournament begins at 10 a.m. Semifinals will begin at approximately 11:30. Championship matches will start around 2:30 p.m.
All-session tickets are $15 for general admission; $10 for seniors ages 62 and over and kids ages 17 and under; and $5 for college students with a valid school identification card.

Apolo Ohno uses Twitter to flirt and hold chats with his fans. Lindsey Vonn uses the social-networking tool to point to detailed Facebook notes on the outcome of her Olympic events.
But Federal Way native and Olympic bronze-medal speedskater J.R. Celski's tweets are rarely self-promotional and often pointing his 13,800 followers away from the Olympics and toward Seattle hiphop music.
"I really would like to see it put on the map, and one of the ways that's going to happen is if people talk about it," he said in a phone interview. "I'm going to try to do my best to promote these guys."

Local rappers Macklemore and Grynch, and the group Blue Scholars are among the most-mentioned by @celskeet, even though he has yet to meet any of them in person.
The artists tend to be storytellers, and Celski gravitates toward them for their "positive message."
"These guys are rapping about real-life situations and remind people about what's right and what's wrong," he said.
Twitter is often a narcisstic outlet, especially from someone who needs a verified account, which the 19-year-old Olympian has, and rightfully so. He's received significant media coverage thanks to a bronze medal, a gruesome speedskating-related injury and his recovery and, most recently, a large chest tattoo.
"I wish more people interviewed me about music," he said while discussing how rare it is to find someone in the speedskating circle who knows about his favorite artists.
His personal success makes his public promotion of others in an unrelated profession even more noticeable. But Celski said it's hard for him to connect with people who don't have similar tastes in music, and Twitter appears to be an outlet for him to share and start a conversation on his other passion.
Celski dabbles in tweeting like someone embedded in Seattle's scene, but he's actually residing in Utah, coming back to Washington — "home" — only every few months, he said.
He has hopes to move his involvement in local music beyond tweets. Celski admits production is something he has considered, and he's trying to bring Seattle hiphop and rock artists together for a benefit concert. There's proof of these plans Twitter, of course.
Macklemore, Grynch and Blue Scholars were first mentioned on his dream lineup, followed by Common Market, Minus the Bear.
"My goal in life is to affect as many people as I can positivley," Celski said. "And I feel like promoting artists … who have a positive message" is a part of that.
Here are the Seattle hiphop songs Celski is currently listening to:

Wayback Wednesday: Let It Go
Jeff Veillette
June 11 2014 11:09AM
The Los Angeles Kings have a very real chance of winning their second Stanley Cup in three years tonight. It's an amazing feat for a team that was built with purpose and with patience, and they deserve all the credit in the world for it. Most people are giving it to them.
There are some Leafs fans who hold a grudge though, based solely on an incident from 21 years ago, that happens to be my most frequent "Wayback Wednesday" request and one of the most popular mailbag questions since it started (just behind "who will replace Carlyle????"). I'm referring to...
"Do the Leafs win the Stanley Cup if Wayne Gretzky is called for a high stick in Game 6?"
First and foremost, you should have let this go 21 years ago. Secondly, probably not.

The good thing about today? I managed to take care of so many day-to-day errands that I can't actually remember most of the day's events. The not so good thing? It's 10:44 AM and I'm about to do my second mailbag in three days. It sucks, I know, but at least we're getting to the bottom of the inbox. Besides, I'm hoping to get our first Wayback Wednesday post in a while up tomorrow, so that will be something, right?

It's summer at the Nation Network. All five sites' teams missed the playoffs this season -- a new record -- so thanks guys. The annual "the Oilers missed the playoffs so Wanye goes running off into the world to backpack and pout" trip is now over. We are looking straight down the barrel of another Charity draft party and are starting to shill tickets.
The machine can't stop turning just because every single team we cover has failed epically.
Turning Marlies into Maple Leafs

June 10 2014 02:04PM
I saw it being shared around the Twitters, and I must say I couldn't disagree more with Jeff Langridge's assertion that to become an NHL player, one must effectively be drafted and seasoned in the minors for x number of years prior to becoming "NHL-ready".
There are, at any given time, 540 jobs for skaters in the NHL, and only half of those players should be deemed at a high-enough level above replacement that a player of a similar skill level couldn't be picked up freely on waivers, like Jussi Jokinen, or close to free via a low round pick, like Mathieu Perreault. That means that when you draft a player, you're hoping that he'll wind up in the Top 270 or thereabouts.

Kiva lenders' funds will enable Soro Yiriwaso to expand its outreach and target even more underserved Malians involved in business and agriculture.
This is a Group Loan

Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

yep and how do i do that lol and thanks for help, i tried the rogero cfw and got same message
yep thats how i got it usb and how do i toggle qa and dehash thanks for your help
if you read at begining of this thread the actual rebug article it tells you how, and gives links to the files you'll need.
right cheers for that
i'd definitely make sure you got a good download first though.
will download again and try thanks
What ?? I have to update rebug 3.55.33 after 3.55 ofw before I can installed rebug 4.21 ?? By the way, are you really sure that homebrew works as well as reactpsn app and psn games that I used for reactpsn as well ?
All games up to 4.21 games will work just fine after I got all original eboots and original param.sfo in orders to work perfectly fine ? I want to be double check.
PSN downloaded games will need some work to get them working, but from what i've seen you can get them to work , playing online through psn is standard, no ideas baout reactpsn i assumed its no longer needed and hokmebrew can be resigned, most of it already has, multiman showtime etc.
an yep i had to go to ofw 3.55 then rebug 3.55v3REX then 4.21REX i couldn't get there any other way, i assumed it would be simpler for others, i had caused all my own problems by changing fws every 2 days , up and down
i've no idea what reactpsn app is though so id hold off until you find out for sure if its needed or if its already ported over
I removed the multiMAN news, as this thread is only for Rebug CFW updates... we added it to our ongoing multiMAN thread for discussion though.
Thanks.. I will wait for more investigate on ReActPSN compatibility first.
did they qa thing and got the debug settings thing and tried again but still same message so i am trying the download again its downloading now but really slow

OK park. Gravel road in was dusty. It rained during the night and the road was a gooey mess on the way out. Fresh crushed limestone, left a mess everywhere on truck and trailer. An older park that needs a lot of cleanup and work. Very quiet, roomy site. Almost empty on a Sunday night. Nice young lady at checked in. - GOTTOYS
Jun 2008 - $25.00
We stayed for 3 weeks before moving to Oakwood RV in Clear Lake. River Ranch is very woodsy. It is in the area that had flooding this past year so there were a lot of mosquitoes. The owners were very nice and they are working to get the park back into shape after the flood. They have cabins for rent and you can rent canoes, paddle boats and three wheel bikes.You can swim in the river and they usually have plenty of deer to feed in an in-closed area but that is being repaired also. If you are planning on staying for a period of time you would have to go to Charles City to shop and do laundry or to Waverly. We probably would have stayed there but we could not get phone service nor could we get the internet (which is needed for business). It's a good place to go to get away from it all and relax. - tandiee
