Hey Cippy. This forum is pretty dead still. Maybe we should try and revive it again. How's your running going?
Hey, Its going pretty good. Got conference on thursday and I'm in contention as well as our team. Its pretty good. What about you? Hows your racing going?
Oh nice:) What kind of times are you running these days?
I'm not really improving as much as I'd like to, and am struggling with injury at the moment, so running's not going that great. Getting into cycling though:) I'm sure crazy would be proud:P
I run about a 10:10 3200m and a 16:46 5k. Those are all time prs. Yea, I wonder what happened to crazy. I did have his email, and he said I could email him if I ever needed advice. but I never did email him. How is biking going? I've thought about doing it as a Xtrainer in the summer. Worth it?
Wow nice! What's your progression been? I seem to remember you running in the 17s when the forum was a living beast?
Yeah you should shoot him an email. I think we need to have a CR reunion:) I have alexanderthegr8's email somewhere..
Well I'm not really riding competitively or anything, I don't even have a road bike, just a mountain bike that I made semi-suitable for riding on the roads with. I just really like doing super long rides. I've got a 210k race this Sunday, that should be good:)
Re the cross trainer: it's worth it in the sense that you can only do so much running before you get injured and a cross trainer allows you to get a bit more in (and cop out when it's raining if you don't have a treadmill). But the link between bike fitness and running fitness is fairly indirect. I think it helps, but you have to spend a lot more time to get the equivalent workout. I've got one in my garage and I've found it a huge help this year because it saves time and uses different muscle groups, so I can maintain fitness when I'm injured.
I WAS running amazingly. but just recently broke my 1st metatarsal
Owch, that sucks:( How long is it going to take to heal?
That sucks. How'd you mange that?
i have 4 more weeks of the predicted 6 it would take to heal if i was perfect. did i ever mention how much stationary bikes SUCK? but anyways, not running is killing me and im gonna be totally offbalance from hopping around on one foot but WHATEVER you say life gives you lemons you make lemonade no matter how sour it might be. how about you guys? actually you guys biking much? know any awesome intervals i could do or other workouts i could fit in?
Well, I heard that when life gives you lemons, you say **** this and bail. I am considering getting on the bike. I don't know, I just like to be outdoors and moving. And if you give me a lil more information on your situtation, I can prolly give you some workouts. If you want.
also when life gives you lemons you make TEQUILA but i dont have any tequila lol. some workouts would be AMAZING if you dont mind
i broke my first metatarsal playing socceer when me and another girls foot collided and i wasnt wearing proper shoes. ive got 4 weeks left of my 'probation' and can only weight bear on my heel at the moment. i was a super athletic female who has time for about 2 hrs of workout time a day, which is usually done in two sessions. i just need a cardio workout on the bike right now since i cant swim yet. currently ive been biking for an hour- 2hrs a day while watching dvds and im getting pretty bored with it. last time i was off i did an interval workout where i warmed up for 15 mins then went hard for 1 min, then 2, all the way to 5 and back down with 2 min rbi. im contemplating doing that again. my goal while injured is to stay same weight and possibly keep some of my sanity lol
thanks for anything you can manage to come up with
(ps sorry for lack of capitals and grammar i forgot you guys on this forum hated that stuff)
Well, for biking you could do what you said. If you can lift, ( i don't remember if you said you could ) you can do leg press with low weights, leg extensions w/ low weights, and basically all legs things. (just don't over do it) Now here is an important thing, when you lift, do all of your sets, than lower the weight by one third. Do all of it over again. Than a third of the third. This is called exhaustion. It will help with endurance alot. For your arms, will not need so much attention, you sit flat on the floor and swing your arms like you would while running. Than add some weights, like 2.5 or even 5 lbs if your feeling saucy. This will help your arm drive.
Now if you can't do lifting what you can do is (which you already know is) biking. If you can, ride outside. Some things to try are mile repeats or longer, but not longer than 2.5 miles. Fartleks are good too, usually 35 to 45 minutes will suffice or longer if you feel up to it (sorry if this is too much, i usually write these for guys). If you are riding outside, you can do accelerations. Which is biking at a moderate fast pace. I hope that this helps.
(btw, don't worry about grammar. alot of the people who i hangout with now don't do use it either)
Have you tried 'Spinervals'? It's a DVD series with some killer workouts for stationary biking. Haven't tried it myself, but I've heard it's good. Personally I've never had a problem with boredom on the cross trainer (mine has arm pusher handle things as well as pedals). I just crank up the headphones and go hard enough to work up a sweat.
The other thing I've recently gotten into is pushups. Join the hundred pushups challenge!
THANKS! I was on a strength training plan in my fitness class, but when I broke my foot I've just been doing all core and some leg lifts and stretching in that class. I gave up on arms because all my classes are on third floor and after that class I have to hop all those stairs and my arms give out if they are already exhausted. I like how you gave exercises to simulate running I'll try those no matter how ridiculous I may look, I already get weird looks cause I still work out with a broken foot. I can't ride outside because of the weather and I'm honestly afraid I'll fall off and rebrake my foot even though that's unlikely. I"ll look into the spinervals, but possibly only near the end of my sentence in this boot since right now I can only put pressure on the heal. That pushup thing looks interesting, it's six weeks long maybe I can incorporate that some how. Thanks guys, it's not too much at all.

Morgan McLeod is proving that it pays to be beautiful.
The San Jose resident and former San Francisco 49ers cheerleader is one of 18 new cast members of "Survivor," as announced on Wednesday by CBS. And she will be competing on the "Beauty" tribe in the reality show's latest twist which has the contestants divided into teams of "Brawn," "Brains" and "Beauty."
According to a CBS media release, the groupings of these tribes, each comprised of six castaways, reflect "the distinguishing qualities that people bring to the game and test whether there is any truth to the pre-conceived notion that certain characteristics will help you win the game."
The cast also includes a high-stakes poker player, an attorney, a nuclear engineer, the president of the Miami Marlins and a former Golden State Warriors player.
In her cast bio, McLeod, 21, says that her claim to fame was being selected to the 49ers cheerleading squad while still in high school. Her hobbies are "interior design, working out and dancing," and she says the three words that best describe her are "mature, determined and attractive."
The bio goes on to say that the former "Survivor" contestant she relates to most is Parvati Shallow because "she is beautiful and manipulative just like me. She has the ability to make everyone love her but also fear her."
The reason she signed up to be on "Survivor"?
"(For) the chance to experience a once in a lifetime journey and to show everyone that just because I have huge boobs and a pretty face does not mean I am dumb. It just means I look better when I am winning."
So she's beautiful AND cocky.
Asked if she considers herself a Brain, a Beauty or a Brawn, McLeod replied, "I consider myself all three but if I have to pick, I would pick Beauty. Who wouldn't want to be beautiful? When you are beautiful you get what you want and I like getting what I want."
McLeod is the latest in a long line of Bay Area "Survivor" contestants, two of whom became champions: Vecepia Towery (2002) and Yul Kwon (2006).
"Survivor" returns for its 28th season with a two-hour premiere at 8 p.m. Feb. 26 on CBS. This edition was filmed in Cagayan, a province in the Philippines.
The rest of the cast is as follows:
Brawn Tribe
Brains Tribe
Beauty Tribe

The Warriors' trade talks with Minnesota involving big man Kevin Love have stalled due to an organizational split on Golden State's willingness to part with guard Klay Thompson, ESPN.com reported Saturday.
The morning after Warriors general manager Bob Myers said a big trade was "unlikely" as of Friday, the website reported that coach Steve Kerr and executive board member Jerry West voiced opposition to giving up both Thompson and a future first-round pick along with David Lee in exchange for Love and guard Kevin Martin.
While this could be posturing, it was West who was a strong proponent of drafting Thompson and made recent comments about the sharpshooter's long-term future with the Warriors.
"He and (Stephen) Curry fit great together, should be a backcourt for a long time," the Hall of Famer told CSN Bay Area last week.
Thompson, who improved his overall game this past season, is "highly valued within the organization," Myers said. Apparently, the third-year player is also admired by many NBA teams.
After reports surfaced of the Warriors' possible willingness to trade Thompson, they received calls from teams including the Los Angeles Lakers, ESPN.com reported. The Los Angeles Times reported Friday the Lakers were in discussions about acquiring Thompson as part of a three-way deal in which they'd surrender the No. 7 overall pick and Love would go the Warriors.
Love, a three-time All-Star, has said he prefers to play for a winning team and even told reporters in the Philippines in jest Friday that he could win an NBA championship "if there's a way I can jump on that Spurs roster."
Love can opt out of his contract with Minnesota after next season, but the Timberwolves do not necessarily have to trade him in the offseason if they can't find a deal to team president and coach Flip Saunders' liking.
Like Kerr, West has expressed a desire to add a big man who can shoot from outside. Love tied for eighth in the NBA in made 3-pointers last season.
"We probably need a little bit more shooting up front with our big people," West told KGO-TV last week. "That will be an area that we try to address."

ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA -- Alaska Airlines takes no responsibility for this frequent problem. My wedding ring was stolen from the checked baggage, and their answer is that they are not liable. They gave me a $100 discount and believe that's the end of the problem. I was planning to take the bag on as carry on, but had a back spasm and decided to check it rather than have to lift it. I paid an enormous price. However, I know that baggage handling is normally done in sight of surveillance cameras, and I am sure they could do a great deal more to make this better.
SEATLE, WASHINGTON -- I bought a ticket for my mother in law from New Jersey to Fairbanks, I am in the US ARMY and I wanted her to be here to help my wife with the kids after having a surgery from a combat related injury in Afghanistan. The ticket was cheaper from NY but I wanted my mother in law to flight from home town. When she got to the airport her flight got delayed because according to them they had to get fuel for the airplane which took almost 1 hour.
She was supposed to take the second flight from Seattle to Fairbanks 1 and a half hour after arrival. Because the first flight was delayed 1 hour she lost the second flight and my wife talked to the guy at the gate and he said my mother in law had to wait 13 HOURS for the next flight because it left and left all the passengers from the first flight. My wife got upset and requested a supervisor.
After a long wait, a supervisor named ** at the Seattle airport got on the phone. I told my wife to let me talk to her because she was upset and as soon as I talked the supervisor ** told me I was not a woman and she was not talking to me, she wanted to talk to the woman who requested a supervisor. My wife took the phone and the supervisor told her she was not doing anything for us because there was not their fault the first flight got delayed and like it or not my mother in law had to wait 13 hours at the airport for the next flight.
We told her we found more flights available online and she said there was nothing she was going to do. My wife asked her name and she said ** the supervisor and she did not have a last name or a employee ID and gave the phone back to the guy at the gate and walked away. I CANNOT believe Alaska Airlines has people like that dealing with customers.
SEATTLE, WASHINGTON -- June 30th we flew "home" to Arizona, the girl at the service desk where we checked in at Sea-Tac got us checked in and asked us to have a seat at the handicapped chairs up front and she'd order wheelchairs for us as it was a long process to get to our gate. After 75 minutes I asked someone for help, everyone else who was sitting where we were, got their assistance and were wheeled to their gate within just a couple minutes... chairs were never ordered for us. There was a young lady I talked to, and SHE ordered the chairs and they were there in a couple minutes and we were whisked through the airport, then security and taken to the gate.
We were left at the gate to walk on down to the plane but it wasn't that far so we were okay. I did go over to one of the bars and order a couple kid's meals for us, didn't want to eat too heavily before the flight. The flight crew and attendants were great, even served hot cookies straight from the oven on board! But they did only come through one time with drinks (soda, water, and coffee).
Got to sit in the first row of seats behind first class and have decided if I ever have to fly again, that would be the way to go. The seats we had were very narrow and hard to comfortably sit in the three hours we were on the flight, but it had lots of leg space. Needless to say, we will be driving on our return trip to Washington, because we have decided to move there! Whatever fits in the truck and our 4 x 8 trailer, will be taken with us... we're gearing up for a HUGE yard sale!
Anyhow, back to the airlines.... when we got to Phoenix, two attendants were waiting to whisk us off to baggage claim, but were nice enough to stop at the restrooms for both of us. They gave us about 10 minutes while they took care of something else and they came right back for us. At baggage claim, the one young man waited for us to get our luggage and then he put it on a cart and walked us outside to our waiting ride and loaded it for us.
The dogs were both well received. Munchie slept through the flight again, she had her stuffed monkey to rest her head on, so she was happy. Bearbear slept for about the first hour of the flight and woke with a growl and sharp bark (must have been dreaming), and he looked like he wasn't real happy at being in his tote, so he sat on my lap and took another nap. All the attendants had to come see him.... he's very friendly, as a service dog must be, but he just sighed and laid his head on my shoulder again and went back to sleep.
All in all, it was a good flight, and all went well except when we didn't get up to the gate with enough time to get a decent meal.... I'd have preferred anything but hotdogs but they were the easiest to hold and eat.
FURIOUS IS WHAT I AM. Last night, I set three alarms to wake me up at precisely 4:00 AM for my 6:30 AM flight from San Jose Mineta Airport to Seattle/Tacoma. I woke up on time with a bit of a struggle, but regardless, I reach the airport at 5:00 AM. There was horrific traffic and slow-ass drivers who couldn't drive to save their life, hence me arriving 30 minutes later than expected.
Anyway, I get into the airport only to find it extremely jam-packed; I casually tap on a shoulder of a Caucasian woman holding her baby boy and ask her if she's checking in for the Seattle flight. She replies with obvious frustration and says that they will soon cut off the line at a certain point and declare that those who were on flight AS351 were not going to get through.
I was rather surprised and irritated that they didn't give priority to those were desperate to hop on the plane to Seattle. So, I decide to be proactive and ask the people at the counter, who apparently already got harassed by many of the pissed off people who couldn't get a seat on the plane to Seattle. I asked kindly and softly if they could just squeeze ONE person in. But boy, were they rude and curt.
My cell phone rings, and it's my dad. He's anxious to know if I made it on time. At first I was reluctant to pick it up, because I knew I was in for an earful the second the lady told me that I was going to be able to catch the 351 flight. My dad kept on yelling and lecturing the whole time I was waiting in line, and I was really stressed out. He kept pressuring me to bother the people at the counter, but people were already bombarding them with their mean comments and complaints.
After 45 minutes, he gives up and tells me to call him back when I sort things out. Afterwards, I arrived at the counter and asked yet again if she could still squeeze me in, and she gave a rude "no." I tried to ask her if she could put me on the next plane, but unfortunately, all of them were on standby or either completely booked. So, I decided to give the flight from San Jose to Portland, WA a shot. I was put on the standby list.
After she checked in my luggage, I practically sprinted to the security area, where yet ANOTHER long line formed. Then, I hustled to the C10 gate and asked the lady if she could squeeze me in. She said she did not know at that time, and that I probably would not be able to get in. I waited for another 30 minutes only to be disappointed since every single person was on that plane. Again, I approached the counter with a hopeless face set on, and the lady just booked me a fight for tomorrow night at 8:35 PM. There's Alaska/Horizon Air for you.
SEATTLE, WASHINGTON -- August 20, 2006 - After my flight from Seattle to Dallas, I discovered that my cell phone and digital camera were missing from my luggage once it arrived in Dallas. I reported this to Alaska Air employee **. He completed a Lost Article Report and told me to call in two days to check to see if they had found it.
August 22 - Spoke with Alaska Air baggage employee **. Mr. ** told me he hadn't seen any paperwork on my loss and wasn't familiar with my claim. He doesn't know what ** may have done with it or if he sent it on. There is nothing showing a record of my claim. He also told me that Alaska Air is not responsible for stolen articles. It says so on the ticket, so there will be no settlement given me. He said that he's got no proof that I had a camera and a phone in the bag. He suggested I contact the police to file a report there as well.
August 22 - Attempted to contact Alaska Air Central Baggage Services several times but received a busy signal each time. August 22 - Sent message to Central Baggage Service via the Alaska Air website. Gave a brief description of my issue. Received an e-mail back from them saying that they are busy and it will be two weeks before they can look at my note to them. It suggests that I call rather than mess with their website messaging. It also says "for flights less than 5 days ago please contact your final destination station directly."
August 23 - Contacted the DFW Airport police. In order to inconvenience the victim and give the thief more time to elude the law and a chance to get rid of his booty, they would not take a report over the phone. I must come into the station in person. August 23 - Sent e-mail to Seattle Baggage Department asking for their help: E-Mail to: email@example.com.
August 23 - Called the Seattle baggage department of Alaska Air and spoke to **. She said I have to call Central Baggage Services since it's been over 24 hours. I told her that ** had told me to call him after two days. She said it didn't matter, that Central Baggage handles stolen items after 24 hours. August 23 - Attempted to call Central Baggage Services several times but only received a busy signal.
August 23 - Called and spoke to **. He asked if I had receipts for the stolen items and how much they totaled. Then he told me if it's over $500, it's got to go to Central Baggage Claim. He also said that he hasn't done anything with my paperwork since he was off yesterday. He hasn't reported this to CBS yet. He asked me to fax him my receipts and he will talk to his station manager tomorrow to see if they can take care of it here in Dallas or if it needs to go to CBS. He will call me back tomorrow after 2:00. Never called back.
August 24 - Faxed receipts, boarding pass, claim ticket and proof that I had to turn off my cell phone. August 24 -
Received a response from my e-mail to the Seattle Baggage department. They told me to call someone else. I responded that I had already called someone else who had suggested I contact them.
August 28 - Called Seattle police department to report the theft. Spoke with officer **, badge number **. He took the report and gave me reference number **. He told me that reports like this come in regularly and he's not surprised that I'm not getting any assistance from Alaska Air. They have so many thefts from luggage that they try to ignore it. He also suggested I call TSA in case they took it out to inspect and forgot to put it back in the baggage.
August 28 - Left a message for ** at Dallas Baggage. Called back later and spoke to Mr. ** again. He still doesn't know what ** may have done with the report he took. He emphasized that Alaska Air wasn't responsible for their employees stealing items from baggage. I told him that we could at least view the video from the baggage area to see who was rifling through the bags. He said I would have to take that up with Central Baggage.
August 28 - Called Seattle Alaska Air baggage department for update. They told me that this is not the right department to call, I must call Central Baggage. They did find my claim in their file so apparently ** finally completed the paperwork and turned it in. August 28 - Sent another e-mail to the Central Baggage Claim and got the same automated response that I had received the first time telling that it will be two weeks before anyone will pay attention to my e-mail.
August 28 - Called Central Baggage again. Received a recorded message telling me to contact the local baggage area if within five days. This is what I did, to no avail. The rep that answered asked for a claim number which I have never been given. She said this was logged as an item left on the plane. I corrected her and asked where this will go from here. She said I would be receiving some information in the mail. I asked what this information would tell me or do for me to retrieve my stolen property. She said that she didn't know.
I asked where this will go from here and she told me she would send this to their security office for investigation. I asked how many of these cases were resolved and she didn't know. She gave me a claim number of ** and said that I would be receiving my information in the mail. I told her I would volunteer to view the security tapes. She informed me that there are no security camera in their baggage departments. August 28 - Attempted to call Seattle TSA but there is no answer or answering machine at their number.
August 29 - Called the TSA. According to the announcement, they are currently experiencing a high number of thefts. There were 36 calls in front of mine. Completed the on-line claim form and faxed and mailed it to the appropriate address. Sent an e-mail with claim information.
August 29 - Called the local Dallas baggage area to talk to ** to ask him how my report got entered as "left on plane" and to ask if he had been able to talk to his boss and do something locally like he said he may be able to do. He wasn't at work again. I talked to Mr. ** who reinforced that they can't do anything and that I might as well accept the loss and move on. He said it's in the hands of Central Baggage at this point.
August 29 - Called Verizon to see if they can track my old phone in the case someone tries to activate it. Also asked if they could print an original receipt for the purchase of that phone. Similar to Alaska Air, they said they can't do anything in the local store and that I would need to contact their customer service department. I called the customer service number and my phone is now logged as stolen so anyone that tries to activate it will be flagged.
However, they won't do anything about it when someone tries to activate it such as report the person, retain the phone or contact me or the police with the perp's name and address. They just won't activate it for the person trying.
August 30 - Since they won't take a report over the phone, I went to the DFW police department to complete a theft report. I spoke to three individuals who all told me they would get an officer to come take my report. An officer had not shown up after 25 minutes of waiting. I had to go to work so I left without completing the theft report.
I feel it is warranted to investigate Alaska Airlines for price gouging their Alaska markets. Fares on flights in and out of Alaska continue to go up unproportionately to fares in the lower 48. One might say that because they basically have a captive market in Alaska with very little competition, these higher fares might be based on supply and demand. However, since Alaska Airlines has also made decisions to cut back on flights in and out of the Anchorage (specifically) market, it seems like the airline is "creating" a higher demand and thus creating reason for higher fares.
High peak travel periods in and out of the state of Alaska include Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring break, major holidays and the end of October and March (due to school conference breaks). This November I found it impossible to get a fare to anywhere in the lower 48 for under $1000. Flights are continuously oversold and passengers are offered very little consolation for the inconvenience of being bumped.
Recent policy changes award $250 credit for a bump ticket and yet an Alaskan resident cannot fly out of the state for anything close to that. The latest policy changes include changes to the award plan with regards to using mileage towards a 1/2 price ticket.
The new policy reads "Beginning February 1, 2010: Money & Miles Award Starting at 10,000 Miles One Way and 20,000 Miles Round Trip. Valid on itineraries with flights operated only by Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air. Receive up to a 50% discount on most fares. Maximum discount is $200 (USD) off of the base fare for 20,000 Miles and $100 (USD) off of the base fare for 10,000 Miles. You earn 100% of the miles flown when traveling on this award. Complimentary upgrades not allowed."
These awards state that they are to be used to receive discounts up to 50% off "most" fares and yet the maximum discount has been again lowered. There is nowhere we can go where a $200 discount is equal to anything close to a 50% discount. And all the while Alaska Airlines continues to increase rates and cut flights to Alaska markets, they also continue to expand their service and offer more flights to lower 48 cities and deeply discount those lower 48 fares.
In conclusion, I think it is more than fair to scrutinize these business practices as it has become apparent to Alaskans that we are being price gauged so that Alaska Airlines can broaden their wings of discount services outside of Alaska. A more fair business practice would be to add flights where the market demand is highest. We already pay some of the highest travel expenses in the nation, they could at least show some appreciation for our business by not raping us.
LOS ANGELES -- On June 6, 2013 my sister arrived at Alaska Counter @ about 05:20 for her flight to Mexico City and after checking in got in line at far end left where employee said we were to check in the luggage. @ 06:55 another Alaska employee said we could not board because we had no time to check bags & board. We got referred to the manager ** who said there was no compensation because we were late. I referred the lack of personnel at the gates to check in the luggage and to provide information as well as the parking ticket.
She said to call phone number for compensation @ CONSUMER NOTICES - turned out to be reservations and offered to put her on the next flight at 17:45 HRS or on the next day's flight at 08:00 HRS. She said there was no compensation for being denied boarding.
I looked up internet under involuntary Denied Boarding Comp and talked to agent in Phoenix (**) who said they only handled reservations and to go back the next day and try to explain the problem. Incidentally there were about 20+ people involved in this problem and quite a few of them took seats on the 17:35 HRS flight that day.
Next day talked with supervisor (**) and she said to call customer care. Which doesn't work on weekends. When my sister got to Mexico City, she was told she needs to pursue problem and that in Mexico they would have issued her a free ticket as compensation plus the meals she would get waiting for the next plane and the inconvenience.
Alaska Air had a Cyber Monday sale that is actually lasting one week. Not only did I get the $40 fare to California from Seattle they advertised they are offering the pricing into March. Once I booked the tickets I looked at their 'low fare guarantee' and put in the flights already booked for January and without doing anything they issued a $174 credit. It's all done online and no hassle and I have a yr to use the 'credit'. Very easy and user friendly. If you don't use them but fly Delta, American put your miles on Alaska Air as you can actually use their miles unlike most of the airlines complained about on here.
In 2008, I flew from Seattle to California, and back. On the return trip, my $250 camera, which my husband bought for me as a wedding anniversary gift, was missing from my suitcase. I called to complain about it, and the customer service representative told me, "It is not our responsibility." The next day I heard on the news that ten Alaska Airlines baggage handlers were fired from their jobs due to dishonesty.
Why is it NOT Alaska Airlines' responsibility??? We all realize that customer service reps can easily while away the hours, in a comfy office, with climate control, equipped with an espresso bar; and can easily forget about the poor sap, that is being ripped off by baggage handlers, employed by Alaska Airlines.
Question: What would you call a team of customer service representatives, along with a team of dishonest baggage handlers, that "work", (loosely used term) for Alaska Airlines that seem to be uncomfortable with customer service skills??? Answer: How about a mob!!!
Last August 26, 2009, I made reservations and purchased three tickets through Priceline for my grandson, daughter, and me for a trip to Washington DC in March of 2010. This is a special event, for my grandson was selected to represent his school at a national leadership conference. My daughter and I were going to enjoy DC together while my grandson spent the week at the conference, and then have a day together before we returned to Seattle.
At the time of the reservation I thought I had made seat reservations, row 16 D, E and F. When I checked our reservation on January 21, 2010, the seats had been changed to Row 28, D, E, and F. Today, February 1, 2010, the seats had been changed to a seat for my daughter in 28E; no seats were listed for my grandson or for me. I checked the seating chart; no seats together were available. I called Alaska and was told that because I had used Priceline I was not guaranteed the seating I had initially selected. A seat for my grandson then was assigned then next to his mother, but I was seated separately.
I object to this treatment for three reasons: 1. I booked through Priceline because Priceline and Alaska have made a public advertisement stating the advantages of their booking connection. 2. At no time was I advised that the seats were not available because I used Priceline to book the fares. If treatment is different through Priceline then the public needs to be so advised. 3. The seats were booked together; we should be seated together.

The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi women's tennis team bolstered its roster this spring with the signing of one of the top tennis players in Texas to a National Letter of Intent. Chelsea Horan of San Antonio recently signed with the team and will help contribute to the Islanders continued rise in the Southland Conference.
"We are very excited to get a player of Chelsea's caliber," said Director of Tennis Steve Moore. "She's spent time near the top of the state of the Texas rankings and was a champion in doubles twice at the Texas Grand Slam.
"We are even more excited to get a player that level that is such an exceptionally high-character person and will be such a good fit for our team and what we value."
Horan won the Texas State Grand Slam twice and was one of the top ranked doubles players in the state. The event is the state's largest and most prestigious tournament in doubles. She was also ranked as high as 11th in the state rankings during her career.
Her presence will help add to the team chemistry as she has certain attributes that Moore looks for in any player he recruits.
"She is an excellent student and comes from one of the most well-respected tennis families in Texas," said Moore. "I grew up playing against her father and uncles and they were always some of the classiest people you would meet at the tournaments.
"The combination of her playing level, her academics and the high-character person she is really makes her a good fit for our team and is exactly the type of player that we're looking for."
Horan also feels that she found the right fit at the Island University.
"I am very grateful for the opportunity to attend college at Texas A&M - Corpus Christi and to be a part of such an outstanding tennis program," said Horan. "The thing that has attracted me the most are the coaches and their commitment to developing the players both on and off the court.
"Coach Moore's emphasis on "team commitment" along with hard work aligns perfectly with my core values. I am looking forward to continuing my tennis career and at the same time getting a great education."
She will join the women's tennis team that lost just two seniors and completed their best-ever season in the Southland Conference with a fourth-place finish this past year.

What the drought decimated the near-record rain has helped restore. Many Kansas lakes have seen a dramatic turnaround.
Santa Fe Lake in Butler County dried up two years ago. Now, it's overflowing. The lake is so full, workers are pumping water out of it into a nearby retention pond. Meanwhile, water cascades over the spillway.
Nearby Augusta City lake has made a dramatic rebound of its own. It's filling back up after going dry in 2011.
Both of these lakes help supply the city of Augusta with water. City officials put mandatory water restrictions in place because of the low water. Now, there are hopes those restrictions may be lifted. City officials plan to revisit them this fall in hopes the current trend continues.
The lakes also supply water to the city of Mulvane and two rural water districts.
Rising lakes great news for Augusta

In addition to required clinical and patient safety measures, other nationally-endorsed measures and target outcomes are jointly agreed upon by each hospital and the health insurer using benchmarks established by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, The Joint Commission, the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, and others. Areas targeted for improvement include: patient safety; patient satisfaction; and clinical processes focused on care following heart attack, heart failure, pneumonia and surgical care.
Eight hospitals in the Finger Lakes Region participated in the program in 2013 including Clifton Springs Hospital, UR Medicine's F.F. Thompson Hospital, UR Medicine's Highland Hospital, Newark-Wayne Community Hospital, Nicholas H. Noyes Memorial Hospital, Rochester General Hospital, UR Medicine's Strong Memorial Hospital and Unity Hospital.

SAN JOSE -- A quarterback competition and a change in defensive scheme provide plenty to keep an eye on for San Jose State, which opened spring practice on Friday.
Senior Blake Jurich and junior Joe Gray are in a head-to-head battle to succeed David Fales, the record-setting quarterback who is now preparing for the NFL draft. Coach Ron Caragher didn't rule out naming a starter by the time spring practice concludes in a month.
"If it was obvious, we could have a starter out of spring," Caragher said. "Competition is a good thing. I think the guys respect each other. The players on our football team respect those two. If it doesn't get decided, it'll carry over into fall camp."
Both players were involved in the quarterback competition in 2012 that was ultimately won by Fales, but this is the first big shot for either to win the starting job.
"It means everything to me," Jurich said of the chance to be a starter. "I've been working for 14 years now playing football. This is the biggest opportunity I've had. I've got to make the most of it."
Gray said the competition between him and Jurich isn't about replacing Fales, "it's about giving the coaches and the team the best chance to win." He also said his relationship with Jurich is positive.
"We're competing against each other, but we're not enemies. We're not rivals, we're not anything of that nature," Gray said. "We're teammates competing for the same goal, but we help each other."
Here are three other top priorities for the Spartans over their remaining 14 spring practices:
Caragher said after a year of getting to know his team, he sees the personnel as a better fit in the 4-3.
"A year ago, I would say being new I didn't know our personnel as well," Caragher said. "I feel like we have the right people to line up and play the four-down front."
Senior linebacker Vince Buhagiar, who missed all of last year with a shoulder injury, said the players are happy about the change.
"I know that we're a lot more comfortable with it," Buhagiar said of the 4-3. "For me and my class and the class after us, this is what we were taught the whole time. It's kind of like going back to your roots."
Buhagiar was moved to outside linebacker last season before he was injured but now is playing his more natural middle linebacker spot. Travis Raciti is back at defensive tackle after spending last year at defensive end. Both were first-team All-Western Athletic Conference at those positions in 2012.
Senior receiver Jabari Carr, with 120 career catches, should start along with Winston and can help fill the void. Tyler Ervin, who missed nearly all of last year with a high ankle sprain, is back and will switch to a hybrid wide receiver/running back role.
Redshirt freshmen Jeremiah Kolone, Keoni Taylor and junior Keith Bendixen should challenge for the two guard positions.

Create an indoor winter wonderland with the help of Peter and his pals. Print our snowflake ornaments and follow the simple steps here to create a cute snow mobile!
Weekdays on Nick Jr.
Print out planet ornaments on heavy-weight paper. Fold along the solid line, and glue the front and back of each image together to create double-sided ornaments. Then help kids cut out the images. When dry, punch a hole at the top of the ornaments where indicated.
To make a top for the mobile out of cardboard, trace a circle onto the cardboard (try tracing a pot lid or a plate), and cut the cardboard along the trace lines.

 You can also make a mobile top out of a paper plate. To add more flair to the mobile, help your child paint or color the paper plate. Punch holes around the paper plate using a nail or scissors (an adult should do this part), keeping in mind that each hole will represent where each ornament will hang.
Cut strands of yarn, ribbon, or string at various lengths, one for each ornament.

 Thread each strand through the ornaments and tie a knot. Then lace the other end of each strand through the holes created in the paper plate or cardboard. Tie a knot and secure it to the top side of the paper plate using tape.
Tape four strands of equal lengths, to the edge of the plate (two vertical and two horizontal, at opposite ends). Tie the four strands together then tie them to a longer strand. Then create a loop at the end of the longer strand from which the mobile will hang.

 The mobile is complete! Hang it on the ceiling or a light fixture. It's a great decoration to celebrate the season!

ive searched around a bit on the forum and the googler
i am having some choppiness when streaming a 17gb mkv file, i suspect either the processor being overwhelmed or the temp folder is on the system drive i have which is not meant to have this sort of action on it(its a usb drive). if i let it sit for a while i see the proc spike but no network activity, then i resume play and theres no choppiness which leads me to believe there is some temp dir somewhere that needs a little love
does anyone know where the temp folder is for mencoder or mplayer on freebsd 9/freenas .7.5?
ive got the directories set up like this according to the debug.log of PMS:

- Newtown 911 calls: 'There's still shooting going on, please!'
One year ago Saturday, horror united us.
We froze in our pre-holiday tracks, stomachs and jaws dropping, at news that 20 first-graders and six educators had been shot and killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. No matter our politics or feelings about guns, we all hugged our loved ones tighter that night.
But soon we parted ways again, as calls for tighter gun control were met with calls to protect constitutional rights, and accusations of hard-heartedness were met with accusations of political opportunism.
Several states enacted tough new gun laws this year, but Congress did not pass any. Business boomed for lobbyists and the gun industry, as firearm deaths mounted, whether from mass shootings like the one at the Washington Navy Yard or from the all-too-common violence in troubled cities like Oakland.
Now, California nears its own awful anniversary: It'll be 25 years ago next month since five children died and 29 more were wounded at Stockton's Cleveland Elementary, inspiring the state's first-in-the-nation assault-weapons law.
But the nation is still arguing about whether the blood of Newtown's children should compel us to address the Bushmaster .223-caliber semi-automatic rifle that Adam Lanza carried in his hands, or the illness he carried in his brain.
Sam Paredes, executive director of Gun Owners of California, said the reaction of lawmakers was "wholly, fully and completely ineffective."
"You never let a tragedy go to waste ... so they pulled off the shelf all of the gun-control things they always wanted to pass," he said. "We tried to tell them that you need to go after the people with mental issues, because all of these other things only affect law-abiding citizens. And our words fell upon deaf ears."
State Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg -- a longtime champion of mental health treatment who shepherded a raft of gun-control bills this year -- agreed that the issue should be part of the discussion, but said gun-rights advocates use it "rather cynically" as a smoke screen.
"The truth is we need both: more robust mental health services nationally, in addition to reasonable measures to reduce gun violence," said Steinberg, D-Sacramento. "It's not either-or."
For both sides, however, Newtown was a turning point.
"We got calls from 30 different states interested in introducing legislation" after Newtown, said Robyn Thomas, executive director of the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. "That was an absolute watershed change from years past."
Twenty-one states enacted some sort of gun-control laws this year. And even though only a third of those took truly significant steps, the action by state lawmakers was "really quite amazing," said Laura Cutilletta, the group's senior staff attorney.
But the legislative knife cut both ways: 39 new state laws tightened gun controls, while 70 loosened them, according to The New York Times.
"We can't have a patchwork system," said Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. "Now it's time for Congress to follow the lead" of the states.
Days after Newtown, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi named Rep. Mike Thompson, a combat veteran and avid hunter, as her point man on gun issues.
The Napa Democrat dryly notes that polls show more support for his bipartisan background-check bill -- the House version of a bill that failed in the Senate in April -- than for capitalism, vacations and Italian food.
"Any member of Congress who tells you they're worried about how it'll play in their district -- well, no pun intended, they're not shooting straight with you," he said. "There's just no reason not to take it up. It's pro-Second Amendment. It doesn't prevent any law-abiding citizen who is not dangerously mentally ill from owning a firearm."
But the bill hasn't moved an inch. And one reason is money.
The Sunlight Foundation reports that gun-control groups as of June 30 had reported spending five times as much on federal lobbying in 2013 -- about $1.6 million -- as in 2012. But gun-rights groups still outspent them by more than 7 to 1, ponying up $12.2 million.
Even Newtown has become a point of contention.
A few gun-rights groups are marking Bill of Rights Day on Sunday by sponsoring "Guns Save Lives Day" and encouraging attendance at gun shows "because crazy people, criminals and gun control extremists prefer unarmed victims," a pro-gun website says.
"No one at Newtown should have been a victim," said Alan Gottlieb, an officer with the Second Amendment Foundation and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. He argues that all Americans, even in schools, must be allowed to defend themselves.
In fact, 2013 was a banner year for the gun industry: Sales of firearms and ammunition are way up.
Meanwhile, the online magazine Slate recently counted 11,427 people slain by a gun in America since Newtown -- including 194 children. And the magazine noted that suicides drive that number to almost three times as much. By comparison, 4,489 U.S. troops died in the Iraq War.
"Newtown was the most shocking, despicable, horrible, unimaginable tragedy," Steinberg said. "Yet it wasn't the only one -- and it continues to be not the only one."
Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed Steinberg's bill to ban all semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines, saying he doubted it "would reduce criminal activity or enhance public safety enough to warrant this infringement on gun owners' rights."
Steinberg plans to try again. "There's more work to do," he said.
But Paredes and other gun-rights groups say they'll keep trying to roll back existing gun controls.
Even California's new laws aimed at keeping household guns locked up, "as well-meaning as they are," violate people's rights to keep their guns available for self-defense, Paredes said. "It doesn't matter" if children or people prohibited from having guns are around, he said.
Sunnyvale's new gun control law, overwhelmingly passed by voters in November, was challenged in a lawsuit filed this week by a local gun dealer and a national gun industry trade group based in Newtown. The National Rifle Association plans to sue on Monday.
Paredes' group, meanwhile, is part of an effort to recall California lawmakers who voted for gun-control bills this year, just as two Colorado lawmakers got the boot in September.
"We've got a lot of work to do," Paredes said. "And we're doing it."

New STATE Gun-control laws
Twenty-one states passed some sort of gun control in the year since the Newtown massacre. Here are some of the most significant examples:
Connecticut, New York, Delaware, Colorado and Illinois expanded their background checks to include private sales.
Illinois, New York, Maryland and Delaware required gun owners to quickly report the loss or theft of firearms.
Connecticut, Maryland and New York regulated ammunition sales through record keeping or background checks.
California, Connecticut, New York and Maryland beefed up their assault-weapon laws.
California, New York, Connecticut, Colorado and Maryland strengthened or added laws limiting the size of ammunition magazines.
Gun sales booming
Precise figures on U.S. gun sales do not exist, but federal tax revenues and background checks provide a glimpse of the market:
Tax revenues from firearm and ammunition sales rose 48 percent over the previous year in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, to about $763 million.
The federal background-check system as of Nov. 30 did almost 19.1 million checks in 2013 -- already 97 percent of 2012's total. Eight of the 10 days with the most background checks since 1998 occurred on or since the day of the Newtown massacre.
California's system that tracks dealer sales recorded 780,526 transactions this year as of Nov. 1 -- 95 percent of last year's total, with two months still to go in 2013. The state Justice Department expects that number will exceed 1 million by year's end.

A person with broken heart syndrome usually has had recent emotional or physical stress, such as the death of a loved one or an asthma attack. This stress results in symptoms that are similar to a heart attack, such as:
It is difficult to tell the difference between broken heart syndrome and a heart attack since both can have changes in electrocardiograms and blood tests.
Physicians rely on other tests that allow them to look for left ventricle abnormalities that indicate broken heart syndrome. The syndrome causes the left ventricle to narrow and develop a rounded bottom.
In addition, patients with broken heart syndrome typically lack the coronary artery blockages associated with heart attacks.
While the syndrome does occur in both sexes, a recent literature review found that 90% of broken heart cases occur in postmenopausal women. The condition typically occurs in women who are 60 or older. The reasons why the condition occurs more in women is still uncertain. However, researchers think sex hormones may play a role.
Broken heart syndrome is a temporary and reversible condition. The left ventricle will revert to its normal shape in days or weeks. It's also uncommon for it to happen again.
We will all experience stress in our lives. Mental Health America offers the following suggestions to cope:

Three 6 Mafia's Juicy J readies solo album
Published: Wednesday, May 8, 2013 at 8:26 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 8, 2013 at 8:26 a.m.
Since he began his career more than two decades ago, the hip-hop artist Juicy J has garnered acclaim as a rapper, a founding member of the immensely successful rap group Three 6 Mafia and a record producer. He even won an Academy Award in 2005 as co-songwriter of "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" from the film "Hustle & Flow," which won that year's Oscar for Best Original Song.
Who: Juicy J, with A$AP Ferg
When: Thursday, May 9
Where: The Brikhouse, 208 Market St., Wilmington
Tickets: $30, $50 VIP, $75 meet and greet
Details: www.ProgressiveShows.com
Juicy J, who will be at the Brikhouse in Wilmington on Thursday, May 9, for a show with A$AP Ferg, is preparing to release a solo album, "Stay Trippy," in July on Columbia Records in partnership with Kemosabe Records, the imprint of producer Dr. Luke.
Born Jordan Michael Houston in North Memphis, Tenn., it was back in 1991 that Juicy J first took the steps of forming the now-renowned hip-hop group Three 6 Mafia with pals DJ Paul and Lord Infamous. The Southern rap group was signed to major labels and toured the globe, setting themselves apart from similar groups by helping to create the "crunk" sound, with tracks composed of heavy bass lines, synthesized drums and shouted vocals.
For Juicy J, this was a period of self-realization. He knew that he had the talent and the drive to accomplish more on his own, and found the inspiration to do so from a somewhat surprising source.
"I looked up to Isaac Hayes. I always wanted to be like him because the man is a producer and a songwriter, which is what I am now," Juicy J said during a phone interview. "He had success in all parts of the entertainment industry, awards and hits. I really wanted to be like him, and I'm lucky because he was a good role model for me, and I have been able to do what he's done."
After having been with a successful group for nearly two decades, one might think that the process of going solo would a daunting one. Not so, said Juicy J.
"Well, it's different, you know what I mean?" he said. "It's new. It's kind of like starting over. I feel like a brand-new artist, because I make most of the music myself. I'm still doing (what I did) before, but I do feel like I'm starting over again, too. It's a cool feeling. I like it."
"I did the group thing, you know, and I'm done," he added. ... "I'm very lucky I can do what I do and be who I am."
Juicy has released two previous solo albums – 2002's "Chronicles of the Juice Man," and 2009's "Hustle Till I Die," but always as side projects of Three 6 Mafia.
The upcoming "Stay Trippy" has become highly anticipated. Its recently released single, "Show Out," featuring Young Jeezy and Big Sean, has gotten more than 7 million views on YouTube. The album's first single, "Bandz A Make Her Dance," featuring Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz, has gotten more than 21 million views.
"They're like brothers to me," Juicy J said of Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz. "It was great to work with them."
Juicy J said fans can expect the same sound and vibe from "Stay Trippy" that they've grown to love.
"I didn't try to change anything too much, because my fans like that trippy, crunk, raw music I put out," he said. "They're definitely going to get what they want."

Herb Crusted Salmon with Pistou
Todays simple but sensational recipe comes to us from Ashley Baqeuroauthor of The Quick and Dirty Cook blogwho we met when she wrote recently to compliment our Alaskan Weathervane scallops and share her recipe which well run soon.
We love the recipes and photos on her blog, asked Ashley to allow us to publish some, and she kindly agreed.
Heres how Ashley describes her approach and philosophy:
Because Im often pressed for time I tend to cook in a rather quick and dirty manner. I create my own recipes and frequently amend recipes to make them quicker and easier to cook. This is a cooking blog for normal people those that have busy lives and need fast, flexible recipes.
The key to my food philosophy is moderation, moderation, moderation. I believe that you should try to eat a whole-real foods diet... like all other things, knowledge is key and knowing where your food comes from and how it is produced is no exception.
Pistou is Frances answer to Italys pesto. It is a sauce/condiment made of crushed basil, garlic, and olive oilquite possibly 3 of my top 10 ingredients. I have also heard of versions that include crushed tomatoes.
And heres how Ashley describes todays recipe:
In this recipe, the tomatoes are added as a topping instead. Also, traditionally pistou is made with a mortar and pestle; because I dont have that I simply used a food processor. This is a fairly easy, healthy and flavorful fish recipe that has beautiful color and several very distinct and exciting key flavors."
Served with a cold glass of white wine and paired with a fresh saladperfect.

HUNTSVILLE, Texas – The Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Baseball team staged another late-inning rally on Sunday afternoon, closing to within one in the seventh inning before Sam Houston State answered and eventually earned a 5-3 final in the series finale.
The Islanders (13-11, 1-2 Southland) lost the series against the Bearkats (12-11, 2-1 Southland) in the first Southland Conference weekend of the year for both teams. Adam Hoelscher (1-3) took the loss for the Islanders, pitching 6.0 innings and giving up three runs on just four hits while walking five and striking out three.
The Bearkats picked up a run in the bottom of the first and added two more in the fourth to take an early 3-0 lead.
The Islanders were unable to get on the board until the to of the seventh, getting two runs on two hits to close the gap to 3-2. Jonathan Gonzales led off with a single and moved to third on a Brad Porras double down the left field line to put runners on second and third with no outs. Kyle Danford walked to load the bases, and Dominic Lopez followed with an RBI on a fielder's choice to make it 3-1, with Gonzales scoring, Porras moving to third and Danford being forced out at second. Russell Vaughan came on to pinch hit and got an RBI with a sacrifice fly down the left field line in foul territory, scoring Porras to make it a one-run lead.
The Bearkats responded with two runs in the bottom of the inning however, pushing the lead back to three runs heading to the eighth.
Texas A&M – Corpus Christi threatened in the ninth, scoring a run and leaving two on when the game ended. Porras led off with a single to center field and moved to second on a Danford Walk. Porras advanced to third with Jacob Hubert hit into a fielder's choice that move Porras to third, and then Porras came home to score on another sacrifice fly by Vaughan to make it 5-3. Stafford Brantley singled to keep the inning alive, but a fly out ended the game with the tying runs on base.
Porras and Brantley each finished with two hits on the day, while Vaughan had two RBI and Lopez added the other RBI for Texas A&M – Corpus Christi. Eric Weiss and Gonzales were the only other two players to record a hit for the team.
Next up for the Islanders will be a midweek game against future Southland Conference member Houston Baptist. The Huskies will travel to Corpus Christi on March 27 to play in a 6 p.m. contest at Chapman Field.
