A Balclutha man whose disappearance sparked a search in the
Clutha River and along its banks near the South Otago town
drowned after falling into the river, a coroner has found.
Michael John Dippie (55) was last seen alive on the evening
of October 29 last year. Mr Dippie was reported missing on
October 30, 2011, after he failed to turn up for work.
Police spent several days searching Balclutha and in the
Clutha River and along its banks.
His body was found partially submerged in the Matau branch of
the river between Balclutha and Kaitangata on November 16.
In his written findings released this week, Otago-Southland
Coroner David Crerar could not rule out the possibility Mr
Dippie's death was self-inflicted.
"A suicide is a possibility, indeed even a probability, but
while alternatives such as Michael Dippie falling into the
river by accident exist, I must consider such alternatives
"there is every likelihood that Michael Dippie was so
sufficiently affected by alcohol that his balance was
compromised and his decision-making capacity could have
similarly affected."
The possibility Mr Dippie fell into the water from the
riverbank could not be excluded, Mr Crerar said.
Tests detected alcohol in his system, but no trace of any
The ability for a pathologist to determine the exact cause of
death was compromised by the length of time Mr Dippie's body
was in the river, and the coroner found the cause was
Mr Crerar found Mr Dippie died in the Clutha River on or
about October 29 to 30, 2011, due to drowning. While
adversely affected by alcohol, Mr Dippie entered the river
either accidentally or deliberately and was swept away in the
strong current before becoming lodged against a tree branch.

....and the price is up slightly. With all this price pressure (4 to 1), and the stock still up slightly, something big is brewing in the background.......or MMs are accumulating. My 2 cents.
Any gap up needs to take out $8......after that, the sky is the limit.
Buyout is imminent.
Sentiment: Strong Buy

Amd will want to catch up to rest of the SOX'es--Trust me on this
When it comes to AMD, I always ignore the quantities in Level 2. Cuz I've seen it happen many times, where there is a huge down spike, then it rebounds within 5 minutes. Or there would be a 200,000 quantity in ASK, then all of a sudden it would disappear or get bought within seconds (same goes with opposite direction).
But ya I also I think something big is brewing. The other day, when the price reached around 3.82, all of a sudden over 1 million shares appeared in the ASK.

Brian White, Drexel Hamilton, and Dieter Bohn, The Verge, discuss BlackBerry's decision to stop manufacturing its 'Classic' version. » Read More
Hey folks. Here's our re-cap of the day. We have the leaderboard, most active and widely held and the trivia questions. Here we go. The video is worth $2,000 Bonus Bucks: General Motor's earnings came in below analyst expectations. What were earnings per share? Your selection of answers is: $0.17 or $0.10 or $0.19 or $0.23.
Hey folks, time for the day's trivia questions. The video is worth $2,000 Bonus Bucks: General Motor's earnings came in below analyst expectations. What were earnings per share? Your selection of answers is: $0.17 or $0.10 or $0.19 or $0.23. The news question is worth $1,000 Bonus Bucks: RIM is rolling out a new smaller and lightweight full keyboard BlackBerry. What is the new smartphone called? Your selection of answers is: The Quartz or Blackberry Curve or Blackberry Qwerty or The Razor.
Research In Motion is rolling out the smallest and lightest full-keyboard BlackBerry smartphone yet, a new multimedia-laden device aimed at broadening the market that it seeks to conquer.
Can earnings guidance be trusted? Firms as disparate as Caterpillar, Cummins, Yahoo! and Research in Motion all beat first-quarter earnings expectations. David Dropsey, equity research analyst at Thomson Financial, and Dirk van Dijk, director of research at Zacks Investment Research, each gave "Power Lunch" viewers their perspectives on the apparent data gap.
Wow! Talk about a busy earnings season. I haven't had much time to breathe lately, which explains the lack of blogs these past several days. The financial flurry has been non-stop and right now is the first chance I've gotten to catch that long-lost breath. And it gives me an opportunity to focus on Microsoft, which reports after the bell today.The Street is looking for 46 cents on $13.89 billion in revenue.
Research In Motion is set to roll out new software that will let users turn smartphones running on Microsoft's Windows Mobile platform into virtual BlackBerries.
A service outage this week of BlackBerry e-mail devices resulted from a new storage feature that was not sufficiently tested, device maker Research In Motion said.
SiRF Technology Holdings swung to a quarterly profit, as it took a one-time charge related to the acquisition of TrueSpan in the year-ago quarter.
Wow--we've gotten posts from all three guest bloggers today as this one from Timothy Sykes wraps it up. You certainly have some food for thought. Here's Timothy: Many contestants have been asking why I advocate such a seemingly risky strategy by focusing on chart plays with upcoming earnings. The answer, like my strategy, is rather simple.
Users of the hand-held BlackBerry e-mail device, a communications lifeline for movers and shakers from the White House to Wall Street, endured hours of disrupted service before the system was restored on Wednesday.
Berry Blackout: Sometimes you have to chase the news, but sometimes the news chases you. It was our affiliate, WNBC-TV, which first put together the story that Research In Motion's BlackBerry system had suffered a massive outage overnight -- leaving users all over the Western Hemisphere without instant access to e-mail messages. ... Also: I'm the last guy to spoil a good market party, but as the keeper of market factoids, it was unusual to see the Dow reach a record high -- yet have two-thirds of the Dow components trading lower...
If you went to bed and woke up this morning thinking the world was quiet and that today was going to be a light day at the office, you may want to call in, instead of relying on your BlackBerry. Research in Motion confirms a massive, system wide blackout affecting all its 8 million subscribers that began around 8 p.m. ET Tuesday, and while service is being restored, it is still sporadic and may take much of the day to get back on line completely.
Stocks are heading for a lower opening as some weak tech earnings worry investors. The dollar continues to fall against major currencies. Asian markets were higher overnight, but European stocks are lower. There are no big data items today but earnings could sway direction.
Good morning. Parker Robinson and James Kraber remain the dynamic duo at the top of the leaderboard. Parker's portfolio value stands at $2,823,511.09 down $8,592.18 or -0.30% from Wednesday's total with his biggest dollar loss on RIM costing him $6,324.16.
Stocks closed with broad gains as investors bought up large cap stocks, shrugging off a 3% gain in oil prices. "People are looking for a little bit of value, particularly in the large cap sector," said Dan McMahon, head of listed trading at CIBC World Markets. "It's not a huge move but we stopped the bleeding today."
The market selloff after Research in Motion's disappointing guidance presents an excellent buying opportunity, one analyst told Mark Haines and Erin Burnett on "Squawk on the Street." "They're investing more in growth, just starting to crack open the consumer opportunity, and we do have some one time events, a bit of a higher tax rate that is pinching some of the earnings outlook," said Rob Sanderson, media and communications analyst with American Technology Research.
BlackBerry maker Research In Motion's stock fell sharply after the company reported slightly lower-than-expected earnings and said the SEC was formally investigating its stock-options practices.
Good morning. Parker Robinson has remained on the top of the leaderboard since April 5th, and James Kraber is holding strong in the #2 slot. Parker's portfolio value stands at $2,832,103.27, up $36,000 from Tuesday on Electro Scientific and bonus bucks. Parker's gamble on Electro Scientific paid off. He bought 50,000 shares at $20.09, and it closed Wednesday
Stocks prices are soft ahead of the open, following a slide in Europe and Asia on yesterday's comments from the Fed.
Good. Just not good enough. Strong. But not strong enough. Call RIMM's Fourth Quarter earnings report what you want, but just don't call it "good news."

Study Looks At Cost-Effectiveness of ECG in Hyperactive Kids
Latest Healthy Kids News
MONDAY, March 8 (HealthDay News) -- Electrocardiogram screening to check for heart problems in hyperactive children before prescribing stimulant medications may help identify those at risk, but is only borderline cost-effective compared to the current practice of taking a patient history and doing a physical examination, a new study shows.
Stimulant medications -- such as Ritalin, Concerta and Adderall -- that are used to treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder boost pulse rate and may increase the risk of sudden cardiac death in children with some types of heart conditions.
In this study, U.S. National Institutes of Health researchers used a cost-effectiveness model to compare three strategies:
Lives typically would be saved by barring at-risk children from playing sports, the researchers said.
"We're not making a recommendation, but providing one type of analysis so others can determine what makes sense in the real world," study co-author Dr. Jonathan Kaltman, a medical officer in the heart development and structural diseases branch of the U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, said in a news release.
The study findings are published in the March 8 online edition of the journal Circulation.
"Preventing sudden cardiac death in children is an important issue," Dr. Paul Matherne, chair of the American Heart Association's Council on Cardiovascular Disease in the Young, said in the news release. "While this study has limitations and is not conclusive, it does offer new approaches and insights that add to our understanding of preventing sudden death. Importantly, it highlights the need for more research into both screening to identify children at risk for sudden death, and for developing new therapies to treat these conditions."

AbstractInnovative approaches that improve overall antenna performance while minimizing antenna profile are desired solutions for all volumetrically restricted platforms. This is especially critical for advanced intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms that are expected to provide extended time on station. Spectra Research proposes an innovative approach to accomplishing the program objectives by employing advances in fragmented aperture antenna designs, in concert with the extensive Spectra Research capability in designing specialized antennas, to develop solutions for a unique ultra broadband phased array. Both Cartesian and cylindrical FDTD simulations will provide a set of design rules that then may be used to modify analytical approximations. Once this is done, the design rules will be applied to intelligently optimize a candidate antenna design in the presence of specialized materials. In Phase II of this program, an advanced antenna design will be implemented based on lessons learned and sponsor guidance and a prototype demonstration will be constructed and measured.

NE Iowa Dairy Peer Group
Two young dairy producer peer groups are starting in northeast Iowa. Aug. 28 at the Allamakee County Extension Office, 21 Allamakee Street, in Waukon; and Aug. 29 at the Bremer County Extension Office, 720 7th Ave SW inTripoli. Both run from 10 a.m. to noon. To attend or find out more, contact Jenn Bentley at firstname.lastname@example.com or 563-382-2949. Iowa dairy farmers say they prefer to receive information from other farmers when it comes to learning about the business and running a dairy farm. Young Dairy Producer Peer Groups allow new and fellow young producers to gather together to discuss topics of interest within the group to provide farmer to farmer learning and interaction. This first session will include topics surrounding, "What is it costing to raise my heifers and do I really need to raise them all?" With costs of raising heifers higher than their current market value if sold, precision management is needed as there are many ways to add value to these heifers before they join the milking string.

The "facial" has been popular in hardcore since the beginning, but has practically become a cliché in adult video these days. So we've got to applaud this series for reminding us that applying genetic material to a woman's face can be a beautiful thing, indeed.
A blow bang followed by a four-man mini-bukkake is the main course, though the girls occasionally get roving fingers and tongues inserted into them. Ricki White's hands-free acrobatics are a delight; Kayla Marie is a natural cock hog; and ferocious deep throater Clare Dames crawls around in assless chaps with her huge titties hanging out.

SOURCE: Herzberger, David K. "The Painterly Vision of Buero Vallejo's El sueño de la razón." Symposium XXXIX, no. 2 (summer 1985): 93-103.
In the following essay, Herzberger maintains that the artistic metaphor in El sueño de la razón is the key to fully understanding the structural and thematic unity of the play.
Francisco de Goya first appears in El sueño de la razón in the second scene of Act One, a scene repeated early in Act Two: the artist at work, painting. It is not a fortuitous configuration of events that advances this view of the protagonist near the beginning of each act. For painting (and the nature of art) inheres in the basic structure of Sueño and provides the frame within which it unfolds...

Forecasts Get Another Shave
Economists Trim Their Expectations For Jobs and Growth, Survey Finds
Economists continue to pare their forecasts for hiring and economic growth as high oil prices and other uncertainties sap confidence among businesses.
What's in Store?
See and download complete data, including forecasts for GDP, inflation, unemployment and interest rates. Plus, answers to what might cause the Fed to slow its rate increases, why hiring has remained volatile and what would be the biggest economic issues under Bush or Kerry. Survey conducted Sept. 3-7.
The 55 economists who participated in the latest Wall Street Journal Online economic forecasting survey, on average, expect the economy to add 182,000 jobs a month for the next 12 months. That's down from an average forecast of 194,000 jobs a month in the August survey and from 207,000 in May.
The economists also marked down their forecasts for gross domestic product, the total value of good and services produced in the economy. They now expect the economy to expand at a 3.6% rate in the third quarter and 4.0% in the fourth period. As recently as June, they had forecast growth at an average rate of 4.3% over the balance of the year. In the second quarter, GDP grew at a 2.8% rate.
Job creation has been on a roller coaster through much of the year, spiking to a high of 353,000 in March but sagging back to below 100,000 in June and July. The picture appeared to brighten again in August, though modestly, when nonfarm payroll employment rose by 144,000 jobs and the unemployment rate tightened to 5.4%, the lowest level since October 2001.
What's to Blame?
Economists pointed to an array of factors when asked to diagnose the swings in hiring. A rise in crude-oil prices, which approached $50 a barrel in futures trading in New York last month, likely played a part, as did what economists say is sagging business confidence. The two factors are intertwined; high oil prices come at a time when companies are still smarting from the 2001 recession. Although the economy has been expanding for more than two years, executives remain hesitant to take on the cost of new employees.
"Businesses have been through a lot over the last few years, and many of them don't have a great deal of tolerance for uncertainty," said Stephen Gallagher of Societe Generale in New York. "They reacted to their worry that consumers may be cutting back."

|HIGH bandwidth | LOW bandwidth
There are signs that some of that skittishness could be abating, however. Mr. Gallagher noted that companies appear more upbeat about their long-term prospects since investment in new equipment is broadening. That view is bolstered by a mid-August survey of chief executives by the Business Roundtable, which showed that most are planning to increase hiring and capital spending in the months ahead. That's a much happier note than executives sounded last year, when most said they were doing more firing than hiring.
But David Wyss of Standard & Poor's remains concerned about the tone in boardrooms, saying that the optimism found in the Business Roundtable's survey may have been fleeting. "That was that week," he said. New terrorism alerts, oil prices and other factors still have employers on edge, he said.
The Brakes on Rates
The pace of job creation is near the point where economists said they believe the Fed could opt to slow the pace of its interest-rate increases. The central bank has made clear it plans to gradually lift interest rates from the low levels it had maintained to help lift the economy out of recession. It has raised rates twice this year and is widely expected to do so again when it meets on Sept. 21.
In the survey, economists said they believe the Fed would scale back on the pace of its rate increases if monthly payrolls growth remained at an average of about 100,000 for a meaningful period. That is near the pace of hiring that was seen early in the summer.
Still, economists left their interest-rate forecasts in the current survey largely unchanged from what they predicted beginning in June. They expect the Fed's target for the federal-funds rate, what banks charge each other for overnight loans, to be 2% by year's end, up from 1.5% now. The economists expect the Fed to lift that target to around 2.75% by mid-2005.
Meanwhile, nearly one-fifth of economists blame the swings in employment statistics at least in part on problems with Labor Department data. For one thing, employment numbers can be susceptible to seasonal factors. Further, the two main components of the monthly employment report -- the establishment survey and the household survey -- have drawn complaints from critics for often painting contradictory pictures of the labor market.
The establishment survey's tabulation of payroll growth at large companies is considered a more reliable indicator by most economists and Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. But the household survey also has partisans, who argue that its numbers are better at catching workers who fall out of the establishment survey when they start their own businesses or work as private contractors.
Mr. Wyss said that the soaring cost of health benefits and a desire for more flexibility could be encouraging more companies to use contract labor and temporary workers -- additions he said would show up in the household survey, but wouldn't register in the payrolls data.
Among other findings in the survey:
- Regardless of whether President Bush or John Kerry wins the election, the economists believe taxes will be the policy issue with the biggest impact on the economy and financial markets in coming years. But they believe Social Security reform would be a more influential issue under President Bush than it would be if Mr. Kerry won the election. And they feel health care would have a bigger impact under Mr. Kerry than Mr. Bush.
- Economists nudged their forecasts for inflation next year lower. While their average forecast for the November 2004 consumer-price index remained unchanged at 3.0%, the average for May 2005 was cut 0.1 point to 2.3%. The most recent government report on inflation, for July, showed consumer prices up 3.0% over the prior 12 months.
About the Survey
The Wall Street Journal surveys a group of more than 50 economists throughout the year. Broad surveys on more than 10 major economic indicators are conducted semiannually, at midyear and at year-end. Between each semiannual survey, four monthly updates are conducted for the most closely watched forecasts. This is the monthly update for September. For prior installments of the semiannual and monthly surveys, see: WSJ.com/Economist.

The Wall Street Journal has reported on the proverbial stick in the spokes of San Francisco's efforts to move forward with a thorough bike plan that seeks to boost ridership by 10 percent by 2010.
Phred Dvorak's article reveals that Rob Anderson's lawsuit has forced the city to perform an expensive and time-consuming environmental impact review of the bike plan, which totals 527 pages and offers comprehensive maps, traffic analyses, and bike lane and bike rack proposals.
Writes Dvorak:
Cars always will vastly outnumber bikes, (Anderson) reasons, so allotting more street space to cyclists could cause more traffic jams, more idling and more pollution. Mr. Anderson says the city has been blinded by political correctness. It's an "attempt by the anti-car fanatics to screw up our traffic on behalf of the bicycle fantasy," he wrote in his blog this month.
Huh? The bicycle fantasy? But Anderson isn't done ranting about cyclists:
"Regardless of the obvious dangers, some people will ride bikes in San Francisco for the same reason Islamic fanatics will engage in suicide bombings -- because they are politically motivated to do so," he wrote in a May 21 post.
Anderson, who Dvorak reports hasn't owned a car in 20 years, is even planning to run for a seat on the city's Board of Supervisors in November.
So as major cities such as New York , Chicago and Boston continue to make transportation by bike more feasible and safe, the usually progressive City by the Bay struggles under the bureaucracy required when one man demands that human-powered machines prove their environmental worth.

Nice place tucked away, but not too tucked away that it was hard to find. We traveled there from Plagnlao on a motorbike and found it easily enough from the directions. It's a very scenic place next to the river, dorms are ok for the money with fans and enough space for bags. Staff didn't interact too much but were helpful when we asked them a question. Free hot and ice cold water. About an hours drive from chocolate hills so quite convenient. Good value for money also lots to see on the way!

The Chemist by EstrudaWatch
©2011-2016 Estruda
This is the local chemist in the village of Howarth on the Yorkshire Moors England. High up on the Pennine hills . It is also where the Bronte sisters lived ,They wrote many books between them including Wuthering Heights. Its also the very same chemist the bronte sisters used .
How very awing this photograph is. It is truly a wonder to look upon, as your description holds much detail and such a story behind it. Very nicely don.
I'm not sure what it is about this photo, but it is almost cast a spell. I could look at it for hours. Beautiful.
it is like going back in time when you step inside its just like it was when the Brontes went in (They lived in Howarth) and Branwell Bronte the brother of the bronte sisters got his drugs from here and that is what he eventually died from ...
Very Nice
Aestetically good ol`times!
Love this Yorkshire set and you so blend in with the scene here and at the station, its like you were born out of time.

"Ventimiglia: bargain shopping in Italy" Top 5 Page for this destination Ventimiglia by NiceLife
Ventimiglia Travel Guide: 69 reviews and 165 photos
Ventimiglia, or Vintemille, according whether you take the French or Italian spelling, sits by the sea just over the Italian border about 45 minutes by rail from Nice. A river separates the modern commercial and seaside resort half from the densely-packed old town, rising steeply up the hill The railway station is the main transfer point between the French national railways SNCF and Trenitalia. Be sure to stop in at the Station Buffet, its one of the best on the planet!
The Friday street market (April - October) runs the length of the town and sea front, and draws tens of thousands of shoppers eager to snap up Italian fashion goods at bargain prices. Street-wise clothes, shoes, handbags, silk ties. Cigarettes from the Tabbachi here are about the cheapest in Europe, and popular with French chokers, pardon, smokers. Plus wonderful selections of cheeses, ham, fruit and vegetables. And lots of inexpensive restaurants for a relaxing lunch after a hard mornings shopping.
Be aware that many Italian shop proprietors are all fully-paid up members of the "Long Lunch-hour Party". "Hour" as in two to three hours. Not uncommon for shops to shut from 1:00 to 15:30. Sunday is VERY quiet - usually a day off for those who worked Saturday. Monday can be very quiet too for the few Sunday openers.
Ah, The Bag. Nature's most important accessory after the shoe. How clever of nature to design shoulders, just to swing a bag from. ("And if we didn't have ears, darling, why it would be just awful, our designer glasses would keep falling off!"). Go to London, Paris or Rome, where the essential shoulder accessory with designer pedigree is �500 - �750 ("Its so cute, I must have it! But I can't decide between these two...so I'll just take them both!")
Now go to Ventimiglia and get something that looks little different, for ten Euro. Will it last, you ask. But why would you want it to? Fashion replaces utility, dispose and replace with the next style - you can afford it. And if you can't decide, just buy them all. Then you will need to buy another bigger bag in which to carry home all your new bags.
Ever wonder how French women can afford to keep up with the latest look? Look no further than Ventimiglia Market, where all the latest styles are crammed onto hundreds of stalls. Whether its rock-chick chic, or oh so this-season boho, the fashion spirit is here. Chav pink tops, 30,000 ways to make a pair of jeans look ever so very very slightly different, belts which spell designer names in the buckle, T shirts with "DIESEL" written on the front (and no doubt "unleaded" on the back).
UPDATE September 2005
Clampdown on Counterfeit goods.
Though the bag sellers are still much in evidence in Ventimiglia, be warned that the French are clamping down on the trade in counterfeit goods. The new Penal Code allows confiscation and large fines for posession of counterfeit goods and tourists are being targetted, so be warned.
- Pros:A day out that's a pleasure for keen bargain hunters
- Cons:can get very crowded on Fridays
- In a nutshell:A great day out

Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy says he likes the leadership and chemistry his team is showing these days.
Gundy spoke after the Cowboys wrapped up two practices on
Wednesday. He says the team endured a three-hour session during the
morning in full pads and returned later in the day for practice
without pads.
Gundy says coaches have been challenging the players and they
have responded well.
He says cornerback Andrae May has been a pleasant surprise on
defense, and Parker Graham has been good on offense.
Gundy says backup punter Michael Reichenstein is the most
improved player on the team.

I recently changed the setting to allow anyone to register, but used your plugin so that I would have to confirm each one and keep the spammers out. Unfortunately I got 100s of apparent fake registrations for the site. Fortunately, they are not confirmed, but there does not appear to be an easy way to select all users with the Pending status and delete them. I would greatly appreciate another button besides "Authenticate Users" that says "Block" or "Delete". Many thanks,

WordPress version: 3.5.1
WordPress SEO version: 184.108.40.206
I did this: I recently installed Yoast SEO after All in ONE SEO stopped working properly.
I expected the plugin to do this: To be a good replacement for All in One SEO
Instead it did this: I have so many problems with Yoast, it's incredible. I'm about to give up.
Another thing I just noticed is that Google Analytics stopped tracking my data since I installed the plugin. I refuse to believe that this is just a coincidence.
Did anybody have similar issues or any idea why this is happening?

Smiths News, which was the distribution arm of WH Smith before its 2006 demerger, said that publishers will be looking "to capitalise on this one-off event" on April 29.
Sales of the top 100 consumer magazines declined an average of 4.1pc in the second half of 2010 from the same period the previous year. The Lady, the so-called "magazine for gentlewomen", was the only title whose sales climbed significantly, gaining 4.9pc according to ABC circulation figures.
When Prince Charles married Diana Spencer in July 1981, sales of society and gossip magazines surged. Tatler sold 49pc more issues in the months after the St Paul's Cathedral wedding than in the same period the year before. In the six months before the wedding, Tatler sales had almost doubled.
Swindon-based Smiths made the prediction as it announced that pre-tax profits in the six months to February had climbed 22pc to £18.7m, up from £15.3m a year earlier.
Revenue declined 5.2pc to £872.3m, from £919.8m, as book business Bertrams recorded lower sales.
The closure of the company's North London and Northampton sites contributed to savings of £11m over the period, offsetting declining sales.
A further £9m in reduced costs is expected by the end of the financial year as the Newton Abbot depot is closed.
Smiths News also anticipates that football's European Championships and the London Olympics - both in 2012 - will generate additional revenue next year, just as the World Cup did last summer.
Shares in Smiths News climbed 3.47pc to 89.5p in early afternoon trading. The stock has fallen 25.7pc since December.

A durable rolling bag for urban and rural adventures.
Sometimes you pack three different outfits for each day, and sometimes you pack three outfits for four weeks. Whether you're going to Paris for fashion week or making your way through southeast Asia over the course of a month, the Eagle Creek Tarmac 25 Rolling Gear Bag will happily hold your stuff without suffering the ill effects of long-haul travel.
While this bag cannot withstand the forces of steel trucks carrying fuel tanks, it can take a lot. Bi-Tech and Bi-Tech Armor fabrics resist abrasions from rough baggage handlers, as well as the bumps and bruises incurred on the bus ride through rural Laotian villages. Ultra rugged wheels with protective bumpers withstand being jostled through crowds as you dive towards a crowded taxi stand.
The Tarmac 25 is more than just a tough exterior. The padded exterior pocket protects electronics en route to the airport, or detailed route maps and travel books en route to your destination. A lockable 3-1-1 stash pocket has a key fob and provides just enough space for your see-through plastic containing liquids and gels. The coat-keeper bungee cord stays hidden in the stash pocket when it's not holding your travel pillow or security blanket. The main compartment expands by 15% to accommodate your travel souvenirs and snow globes. Multiple padded handles make the Tarmac 25 easy to grab from any angle, even if its fuller than a stuffed turkey on Thanksgiving.

Great bag. Happy I bought it.
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Just came back from my first trip using my new Eagle Creek Tarmac 25 bag, and it worked great. I bought it because it was 5 lbs lighter than my previous bag while still being heavy duty, and had a life-time guarantee. (This was my first purchase from BackCountry.com and I bought it from them because it was 20% less expensive than at REI, had free shipping, and no sales tax...seemed like a good deal.) It had ample room for all my stuff. I initially felt like I needed to open the extra 15% expansion to fit my stuff in but ended up zipping the expansion closed after my packing was done and everything compressed nicely. I noticed the difference in weight... 5lbs lighter may not seem like a lot but I appreciated it in lifting the bag at the airport and moving the bag through the airport/hotels/etc. The wheels worked great over a variety of different roadways/walkways and up and down curbs. The handle extends nicely and isn't wobbly like I've experienced in some bags when extended... it was solid. The various compartments with "built in volume" worked nicely to pack different things in different places. I highly recommend this bag.
Top of the line suitcase
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Plenty of space and compartments. Love the exterior. Bag appears durable and if not, there's a lifetime warranty. Big enough for a week's vacation without a problem.

In an unprecedented act of evil, Harry Reid and his fellow Democrats included a provision in their ObamaCare bill which establishes a "Death Panel" (Medicare Advisory Board) that supposedly cannot be repealed.
This action is unprecedented in Senate procedural history. ObamaCare would by stealth revise the Rules of the Senate, which otherwise would require a 2/3 vote of the Senate. If this ObamaCare provision would be allowed to stand, it would take a 2/3 vote of the Senate to change it. The Democrats realize a 2/3 vote would be almost impossible to achieve.
