Pgr3 E-brake
Posted 29 January 2006 - 11:08 PM
I can't get the hang of it, any tips appreciated!
Posted 29 January 2006 - 11:32 PM
if you cant get the hang of it - dont use it
I only ever used it in cone challenges (I hate em), drift, and time vs kudos I think.
If your going for fast times, sliding isnt going to help your cause.
slow into corners fast out.
If your going for Kudos (cone challenges), then you need to slide, and unfortunately the e-brake (Handbrake) is probably the easiest way to force the tail out.

Remember the Normal Brake is for decelerating, and the e-brake is for locking the wheels up and sliding.
If I'm going for track times the only time I use the hand brake is for tight corners greater then 90deg...
I'll use the regular brake but if I'm heading around the corner a bit too hot and don't have enough turn in me I'll tap the e-brake to help bring the car around.
For a quick recovery from an e-brake slide NEVER stomp on the gas. Remember when e-braking your tires have lost traction with the ground, it's easier to spin them and hitting the gas will only keep them from getting traction back.
Typically after an e-brake slide I'll feather the normal brake or not touch any brake or gas at all until traction has returned then you can get back on the gass...
Also with the more powerful cars, coming out of a normal brake or a dead stop it's better to feather the gas to keep your tires from breaking loose, that will give you better acceleration and faster recovery out of the corner.
I use the e-brake quite frequently, but there is no case where I ever use it exclusively, quite a few time/position based races I'll go without using it at all.
EDIT: I should also note that not only will keeping traction help you corner and accelerate better but it will also make it harder for other cars to spin you out.

Also, if you are driving manual gears (which helps A LOT) you can always recover quickly by upshifting, getting yourself straight, then downshifting again to pick up speed. if done at the right timing you really won't lose any speed.
but like another poster stated, its best to slow in and speed out of the turn rather than trying to slide around it, because you simply lose too much speed. only on hairpin turns is it really needed.

It has come up for me recently that I have to change every occurrence of a client's company name or acronym. I don't know if it's possible but it would be great if WP had a Search & Replace feature, perhaps with options like "this post or page only", "all posts", "all pages", "all posts and pages".
I was able to find them all w/ WPs search feature, which helped, but I had to change them all one by one, which took a lot of time.
In the meantime, I'm going to look into doing this w/ MySQL.

Network monitoring with Nagios
Are your systems behaving? Is your newest workstation too busy for its memory? Stay ahead of problems on your network with the free and versatile monitoring tool known as Nagios.
If you are responsible for more than a few PCs, you may have noticed that it would be nice to monitor the status of your network automatically. In fact, you may have already implemented such a system. Why devote a cover story to Nagios? Professional admins already have their own favorite monitoring tools, and home users don't need to bother with network monitoring. Or is there more to this? The IT world is full of commercial monitoring tools. In fact, a large portion of the show floor at a conference such as LinuxWorld is devoted to tools for monitoring and managing network resources. Many of these tools are quite effective, and we don't discourage anyone from using a commercial solution if it is the right tool for the job. However, you really can go a long way in Linux using free products, and Nagios is an example of an extremely effective tool you don't have to pay for. If you are thinking about purchasing a commercial solution, you need to know what you're comparing it with. If you stop by those booths at LinuxWorld, you'll find countless brochures, white papers, and technical documents on the commercial monitoring solutions.

rushed me out of the office . I had to go back and find out I there was a follow up. the cortisone shot dr. mo gave didn!t help
Mar 24th, 2012
If you have a problem with you hand, this is the doctor to see. She is smart, pleasant, and excels in doctor/patient interaction. If surgery is needed, she'll do an excellent job. If she feels other interventions need to be done first, she will tell you! I consider myself very fortunate having Dr. Mo as my hand surgeon. My hand is doing great, progress has been very rapid. Have it done right!
Jan 9th, 2012
a very talented and caring doctor
Oct 8th, 2008
I have been to 3 or 4 hand surgeons and she has been the best, both in skill and style or bedside manner. She doesn't seem rushed like most others and seems to really care.

By Megan Hall
Before Lees-McRae cycling had its pick of riders, before the reign of Carla Swart, and before the Lees-McRae College name became synonymous with collegiate cycling championships, the College had the cycling powerhouse known as Brent Bookwalter.
Hailing from Michigan, Bookwalter began racing in 1998 when a childhood friend took him to a race and showed him the ropes. From there he climbed the ranks of the Michigan mountain biking elite and never looked back.
"I have never met a more diverse and disciplined rider. He has a background that started in mountain biking and transitioned into cyclocross and on to road, where he now is a professional bike racer in the road discipline competing against the world's best. His background and experiences keep him calm and focused in all racing situations," said Robert Jameson, a former teammate of Bookwalter's and now the Lees-McRae College assistant cycling coach.
At the time Bookwalter entered Lees-McRae, the College was still relatively new to the collegiate cycling scene. But when Bookwalter graduated in 2006, he had accumulated an incredible 15 national championships (7 of which are individual championships) and Lees-McRae was nationally recognized for its cycling program.
"The first [national championship] I won is really special. I was new to LMC and LMC was rather new to collegiate cycling. It was the first time an individual from the school had won a national title in a sport, and it was an honor to be a part of that. Another one that I hold a little closer to my heart is the last one I won while at LMC, in cyclocross. [I have] good memories of that race as a hard fought battle and some epic conditions. SNOWY!" said Bookwalter in a 2010 interview with NashvilleCyclist.com.
Not only was Bookwalter the first Bobcat to win a national championship in cycling, he was also the foundation of an emerging Cinderella team, putting as much time and effort as possible into making the Lees-McRae College cycling team the national success they are today.
"I was lucky enough to race with Brent for one season, and as long as I have known Brent, he has been pursuing a professional career as well as achieving collegiate success. Even through a grueling travel schedule, he managed to maintain good academic standing while also having a strong influence on his collegiate team," said Dane Garvik, a former teammate of Bookwalter at Lees-McRae. "His dedication was absolutely inspiring. He was a big part of why our team was so successful. He took it upon himself to teach the team as much as possible about cycling collegiately and professionally, as well as how to balance both."
In the world of professional cycling it is not unusual for young cyclists to forego college in hopes of finding success on the professional circuit, but not Brent Bookwalter.
"Collegiate cycling played a huge part in allowing me to develop into the rider and person I am today. I think during that time of your life, both of those things (personal and 'professional') should go hand in hand. For me, LMC was a perfect place for that. It allowed me to pursue my ambitions and dreams as a cyclist while keeping it in a healthy balance with the rest of my life, so I still had fun and didn't try to push it too fast," said Bookwalter on NashvilleCyclist.com.
For Bookwalter, taking time to get a quality education did not slow down his professional career. Since 2005 he has been a regular on the professional circuit, racing for teams such as Advantage Benefits Endeavour Cycling Team (2005), Priority Health Cycling Team (2006), and his most recent venture, BMC Racing Team (2008).
While recovering from a broken leg in 2007, Bookwalter began talking to BMC Racing before he was even able to walk. By 2008 he was on the team.
"I've been so fortunate to have great people who have always believed in me, sometimes even more than I believe in myself. I think that is what you need when you are going through a really tough time, and my path crossing with BMC was a prime example of that. Gavin and Charlie really believed in me from the very first time I spoke with them. That was really inspiring for me in my quest to return to a high level within the sport. It's a unique foundation for a relationship with a team and I think both sides benefit from that mutual faith and/or belief in each other," said Bookwalter in a 2010 interview on NashvilleCyclist.com.
In the midst of his third season with BMC Racing, Bookwalter got the chance of a lifetime. He was named one of nine starting riders for BMC in the 2010 Tour de France. This is his first appearance in the grand tour race.
In his Tour de France blog, courtesy of VeloNews.com, Bookwalter says:
"Without having had it firmly locked in my sights in the months and weeks leading up to the race, arriving at a sporting event which has the magnitude of the Tour de France has been interesting exercise in focus and expectation"�I didn't fully expect to race the Tour Upon being selected it actually came as a bit of a shock at the comments I received and the influx of attention. The Tour is cycling"�it is a goal or dream that always exists from the first time you pin on a race number a sort of 'perma-goal' for just about any cyclist"�It's an honor to be here."
Bookwalter may now be climbing in the Pyrenees, but he once climbed the mountain roads of the High Country of western North Carolina on his bike not unlike Tour de France legend Lance Armstrong. Armstrong famously trained in Banner Elk and Boone after surviving cancer and credits the mountains with helping him regain his inspiration to do the Tour de France.
"The American Tour legend Lance Armstrong was partially created and fostered by these mountains much like Brent Bookwalter. The North Carolina High Country is Brent's roots much like Armstrong's, and now the future hope of a great American cyclist in the Tour de France just might be Brent and once again from these very mountains," said Jameson.
Editor's Note: As of July 20, Bookwalter's team BMC Racing is in 13th position overall. Bookwalter is journaling his debut experience in a Tour de France Diary for VeloNews.com. To read about his journey, visit VeloNews.com and search Brent Bookwalter.

I was in a car accident in which my vehicle required towing. Within 2 hours of the vehicle being towed I called the tow truck company to see how much it would cost to pick up my vehicle on the same day of the accident and was told that my tow bill was $360 dollars. $360 for the 2 miles it was towed from the scene of the accident to the tow yard.
We waited until the next day, a Monday, to pick it up and paid just over $330. I was told the price dropped because it was no longer a weekend. Also the tow truck driver told me that my car was totaled and suggested I sign over the car to them to pay for my tow bill.
Interestingly enough, the bill to get my car running again was a mere $150, as it was far from totaled. [continued below]....
My brother-in-law had his car towed 15 miles in Ganesville for being illegally parked and he paid $60. This is by far the most worthless and sleazy company I've ever had to deal with.

A child-sized sit-on-top kayak. A bread idea for family paddling.
Sit-on tops are great for kids: they are very buoyant, very stable, and near indestructible.
The problem is with a all rigid canoes and kayaks is transporting and storage.
Well Osprey have built this child sized sit-on top kayak, called the Kiddy Kayak.
You get all the safety aspects of a sit-op top kayak (buoyancy, stability, tough, child is not enclosed), but in a smaller sized package that will be easier for a smaller child to manage.
At only 1.8 metres long and just under 13kg heavy, it is easier to transport than many other sit-on tops. Plus, the smaller beam will make it easier for smaller people to manoeuvre.
There's also another advantage I can see: when the beach it, it is light enough for them to be able to drag it up the shore and not leave it floating around for Dad to paddle after and retrieve! 😉
It also comes with a child-sized paddle and is available in blue, pink, or yellow.
They include standard features such as a drainage plug and carry handle.

When multisite is 'on' too many database queries are called, and bursts network bandwidth between web server and database server.
The query is below.
"SELECT option_name, option_value FROM wp_options WHERE autoload = 'yes'"
This is caused by a limitation of object cache and multisite.
When multisite is on, wordpress cannot use wp_cache_get for that query in wp_load_alloptions function.
Moreover, wp_load_alloptions is called when each get_option function is executed.
If wp_options table has huge data (ex. serialized 'rewrite_rule'), it costs so many time.
Perhaps, it's a solution of multisite confusion by wp_cache_get, but it causes another problem.
I think, even no object cacheing is better than so many database query.

OK, thank you for replying. It turns out i shouldnt buy it now anyhow my cousin just put a big dent in my van so now im gonna have to figure out how much its gonna cost me to repair it. ugh! I thank god nobody got hurt but of course it needed to happen NOW, when i am finally earning very good money with this home income program ive been using. You know, if you want, they've just opened up 2 more positions in our area. Basically you get paid to post links online, its really easy and I just do it while watching TV. Heres the link if you wanna read about it: I've earned about $700 each week since I've been doing it.. not enough to quit my job yet but i actually have some extra money in my checking account. Well, maybe not after i see the mechanic bill lol. My sister is planning on signing up later and these positions usually go fast, so I'd really appreciate it if you dont give the link to anyone else. Thanks! Jannie
Due to the fact that I had just recently started selling items online and gave away my general area, she used that information to lure me into an at home job. I foolishly fell for it, was excited to get started and earn money and before i even knew it I was paying $97 for what I'm not even sure.
I feel used and betrayed. I got ripped off of the first few dollars I made online.

Andrew Bolt
Of course there's a link
Andrew Bolt –, Thursday, October, 29, 2009, (3:26pm)
Greg Sheridan takes a deep breath, and begins:
A FEW weeks ago in London, British Foreign Secretary David Miliband told me that 75 per cent of the terrorist plots aimed at Britain originated in the federally administered tribal areas of Pakistan. Some 800,000 Pakistanis live in Britain.
The vast majority, it goes without saying, are law-abiding citizens. But there is a link between uncontrolled Muslim immigration and terrorism.
The real historic significance of the illegal immigration crisis in our northern waters is that this could, if things go wrong, be the moment Australia loses control of our immigration program, and that would be a disaster.
It is extremely difficult to talk honestly about Muslim immigration...
No wonder. Yet it may need to be done, even if I suspect Kevin Rudd is actually very keen to somehow regain control over this "immigration crisis" he so foolishly unleashed, and will in time stop the boats.
(Note to readers. Keep comments below civil. Do not engage in unfair stereotyping. Argue with reason. Do NOT refer to any cases before the courts. Our moderators are fed up with haters of both sides and have long scissors.)
Former Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews agrees:
LIBERAL MP Kevin Andrews has called for a debate on Muslim "enclaves" in parts of Australia, blaming political correctness for a failure to discuss the issue.
Mr Andrews, a former immigration minister who is heading the Coalition's policy unit in the lead-up to the next election, told radio broadcaster Alan Jones this morning that to "have a concentration of one ethnic or one particular group that remains in an enclave for a long period of time is not good".
And Mr Andrews told The Australian Online that it was clear that some Muslims were not "dispersing" into the community as other ethnic groups had in the past.
" I don't think it's happening as rapidly as with other communities in the past. I think it's desirable," he said.
In Britain, even a former head of the Anglican Church now is worried:
In what will be seen as a very unhelpful intervention to the debate on immigration by many church campaigners for the rights of migrants and refugees, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, George Carey, has called for a "clear cap" on population growth.
In comments given to today's News of the World he blamed an "open door policy on immigration" for the rise of the British National Party.
He also blamed a failure to "absorb" new communities and called for immigration to take centre stage at the next general election…
Carey told the News of the World: "The cowardly failure of successive governments to address our open borders is the reason the BNP has gained admittance to the political mainstream…
"It is asking a huge amount of the British public to accept an open-door policy on immigration. They have seen a massive influx of newcomers, they have seen their jobs hit, and they feel ignored. There have not been adequate resources to help [the] community adapt to these massive changes.
"Yet it is not only a question of resources but the failure to absorb and integrate new communities. The discredited policy of multiculturalism must be abandoned once and for all. Now a controlled approach to immigration is needed with clear caps set on population growth..."
I can understand why the long overdue debate on immigration is now raging in Britain, which is what I guess has triggered calls here for the same. But I'm a bit puzzled why it needs such urgent attention now in Australia, when it strikes me that prominent Muslim radicals are in retreat here, Muslim immigration has indeed been quietly reduced, and the media is now a lot less willing to give a pulpit to Muslim extremists such as Keysar Trad. No longer do we have a council of Muslim leaders advising the Prime Minister, let alone a council with the likes of the pro-jihadist Sheik Hilali. How could John Howard have been so dumb?
I'm in favor of open debate, but still need persuading that we must all join in now - and urgently. I'd say one terror trial after another has sobered up plenty of people even of the Left that were only too likely before to scream "racist", and what's needed now is not this kind of shouty "consciousness raising", but a calm discussion of what actually needs doing that isn't already being done.
You want the borders kept tight? So does Rudd, who's trying frantically to undo his mischief. You want Muslim immigration cut further? Tell us by how much more, and do you really mean to include Indonesian businessmen and Turkish academics?
But if you want a debate on multiculturalism, then bring it on. That truly is unfinished business.

One intruder or two?
Andrew Bolt –, Thursday, October, 29, 2009, (2:28pm)
Tim Blair laughs that an intruder managed to sneak right into the heart of power in the United Nations:
Red-faced United Nations officials on Monday admitted to a major security lapse after a UN guard helped Kentucky Fried Chicken's "Colonel Sanders" gain access to restricted areas.
The guard escorted the white-suited intruder past security barriers, where he got a handshake from the UN General Assembly president, Dr. Ali A. Treki of Libya.
Colonel Gaddafi's man is president of the UN General Assembly? A dictator's water-boy? Stop laughing, and call the police!

No he can't
Andrew Bolt –, Thursday, October, 29, 2009, (11:00am)
Ouch. It seems Americans need more from their president than some symbolism and talk:
While the stock market has picked up and the country appears to be pulling out of the recession, a majority of Americans - for the first time in the Obama presidency - says the U.S. is headed down the wrong track, according to a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll conducted Oct. 22-25. Fifty-two percent say the country is on the wrong track compared to 36 percent who say it is headed in the right direction ...

Singer's sociopaths
Andrew Bolt –, Thursday, October, 29, 2009, (9:29am)
In a post below, I noted this bizarre abuse in a column today by Jill Singer:
IT takes a certain person to rejoice in the suffering of others. In the real world they're called sociopaths - in politics, they're called conservatives.
As I said, the odd thing was that this comment actually appeared on top of a column which then railed at "Ruthless Rudd". Apparently it is Singer's argument that a nice man of the Left is merely forced to do evil by sociopathic conservatives.
Let's leave aside Singer's complete failure to produce a single example of a conservative "rejoicing" at someone's suffering. And also leave aside for now this kind of argument-by-abuse - or, rather, this typically Australian argument-by-moral-grandstanding.
I have instead a little quiz. Regarding a rejoicing in the suffering of others to make a political point, guess - without clicking the links - which sociopath wrote this:
On the subject of Iraq, isn't it time that Bush, Howard, Blair and their merry band of media propagandists get down on their knees and beg forgiveness?… America has lost 3000 soldiers, with many more maimed. Iraq has seen countless thousands of innocent citizens killed, injured and displaced.
And this:
(Mexicans have) just elected a new conservative president and the burgeoning uber-rich of Mexico City are still celebrating with Moet, while the poor in states such as Oaxaca are screaming about increasing social inequity.... Apart from seeing at least 15 protesters killed, the Government clampdown has radicalised the teachers and seen various dissident groups join the protest. Never a dull moment here, I can tell you.
And this:
DING dong, the witch is dead.... I'm not sure which I'd rather be now (after John Howard's defeat), a fly on the wall at Kirribilli when Janette is forced to remove her clutches from the drapes, or over at the Liberals' post-mortem. What a bloodbath that will be, full of recriminations and battles for supremacy.
Here's a hint. It's the same person who wrote this:
The Vietnamese have discovered for themselves the advantages of capitalism and democracy.
And this:
And why the relentless hubbub about Cuba's refusal to embrace democracy and the rule of law when the US itself is imprisoning hundreds of men, including Australia's David Hicks, at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba?
And this:
(H)ow about the conservatives start asking why Cuba can deliver a good public health system.
And this:
As for press freedom, the Vietnamese could show the West a thing or two.
Or do all these comments actually belong in the category of ignoring the suffering of others to make a political point? Of ignoring the terrible consequences of your noble ideology, so better to parade your loudly beating heart?
Singer simply wants an excuse not to deal with arguments she has trouble dismissing with reason. Damning opponents as evil, on the basis of evidence she simply fabricates, suits not just her convenience, but her vanity.
Schopenhauer famously described the 38 best ways to win an argument when reason was not on your side. Guess where he ranked Singer's tactic?
Read on for his acute analysis of the trick, and those who employ it:

Arctic refuses to behave; predictions adjusted
Andrew Bolt –, Thursday, October, 29, 2009, (8:47am)
Two years ago Californian researchers warned the ice in the Arctic could vanish in 2012. Or thereabouts, agreed a NASA scientist. The US National Snow and Ice Data Centre claimed it could even be ice-free in 2008.
The Arctic ice in 2008 increased.
Oh. All right, so Al Gore in December 2008 adjusted his prediction of an ice-free Arctic to 2013:
Except the Arctic refreeze that winter was remarkably strong.
So early this year, Al Gore predicted the ice could vanish by 2014.
Yet the ice this year increased again.
Hmm. Britain's Met Office now puts this catastrophism on ice - just for now:
Modelling of Arctic sea ice by the Met Office Hadley Centre climate model shows that ice invariably recovers from extreme events, and that the long-term trend of reduction is robust — with the first ice-free summer expected to occur between 2060 and 2080.
(This post has been updated with more links.)
Could the ABC's Four Corners now update this scaremongering it perpetrated last year, when it warned "in 2012/13 we could have an ice-free Arctic"?
Reporter Marian Wilkinson then claimed:
If you want to see climate change happening before your eyes, scientists will tell you: "Go to the end of the earth", and that's why we're here, in the Arctic Circle.
Could you go back, then, Marian, and tell us what your eyes now tell you about climate change?

More pain than they thought
Andrew Bolt –, Thursday, October, 29, 2009, (6:24am)
The clean coal dream is looking more like an expensive - and never-never - nightmare:
CLEAN coal power stations are not viable until the carbon price reaches a minimum of $60 a tonne - a level the Australian government does not anticipate until almost 2030 - according to an audit by the Rudd government's own global carbon capture and storage institute.
The new $100million-a-year institute found the business case for clean coal technology could only work if governments helped build the first commercial-size CCS power plants on a "field of dreams", or "build it and they will come", basis…
The technology is central to the government's plans to meet its emission reduction targets. In a recent speech, Resources Minister Martin Ferguson said it was "becoming increasingly clear that no serious response to climate change can ignore the need to accept fossil fuels as part of our shared future".

A bastard or the people smugglers' friend?
Andrew Bolt –, Thursday, October, 29, 2009, (6:14am)
This farce is reaching a climax:
THE Federal Government is not ruling out the forced removal of the 78 Sri Lankan asylum seekers from the Oceanic Viking to end a politically damaging stand-off off the coast of Indonesia.
However, the likelihood the Australian Customs ship and its human cargo would be redirected to Australia rose dramatically yesterday when Indonesian authorities said they would not force the asylum seekers to disembark in Tanjung Pinang.
Kevin Rudd's dilemma is this: he must order the Sri Lankans to be forcibly evicted off the ship and into Indonesian jails, thereby looking the utter bastard and hypocrite. Or he must relent and bring the asylum seekers to Christmas Island, signally to people smugglers everywhere that all they need do now to get here is to do as these boat people did - send out a distress signal when near some Australian ship, after first disabling their own boat.
Your predictions, please, both of the outcome and the spin Rudd will put on it.
The handicappers announce a relevant fact:
But it emerged yesterday that only 22 of the Oceanic Viking's 41 crew were Customs staff - the rest being contracted civilians who could not rely on Australian Federal Police or Defence back-up in the event of a forced removal of asylum-seekers from the ship.
Jill Singer lends her forensic skills as a political analyst:
IT takes a certain person to rejoice in the suffering of others. In the real world they're called sociopaths - in politics, they're called conservatives.
Oddly, this comment appears on top of a column which then rails at "Ruthless Rudd".

Adams New Idea Hybrid Irons
Our research over the many years that weve led the golf world in hybrid iron sets clearly shows that most golfers typically hit the ball away from the center of the clubface (close to 80% of the time). Were here to help that with the new idea. These are more forgiving and easier to hit where you need it most across the entire clubface.
New Cut-Thru sole slot design in the hybrids makes ball speed and launch higher and adds extra distance on off-center shots.
There's an actual wrap-around slot never seen before in golf clubs that expands the sweet spot for up to 44% more speed on off-center shots and 23% more speed on center shots compared to our industry-leading Idea a12OS.

Strenuous exercise is known to induce oxidative stress leading to the generation of free radicals. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of lycopene, an antioxidant nutrient, at a relatively low dose (2·6 mg/kg per d) and a relatively high dose (7·8 mg/kg per d) on the antioxidant status of blood and skeletal muscle tissues in rats after exhaustive exercise. Rats were divided into six groups: sedentary control (C); sedentary control with low-dose lycopene (CLL); sedentary control with high-dose lycopene (CHL); exhaustive exercise (E); exhaustive exercise with low-dose lycopene (ELL); exhaustive exercise with high-dose lycopene (EHL). After 30 d, the rats in the three C groups were killed without exercise, but the rats in the three E groups were killed immediately after an exhaustive running test on a motorised treadmill. The results showed that xanthine oxidase (XO) activities of plasma and muscle, and muscular myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in group E were significantly increased compared with group C. Compared with group E, the elevations of XO and MPO activities of muscle were significantly decreased in group EHL. The malondialdehyde concentrations of plasma and tissues in group E were significantly increased by 72 and 114 %, respectively, compared with those in group C. However, this phenomenon was prevented in rats of the ELL and EHL groups. There was no significant difference in the GSH concentrations of erythrocytes in each group; however, exhaustive exercise resulted in a significant decrease in the GSH content of muscle. In conclusion, these results suggested that lycopene protected muscle tissue from oxidative stress after exhaustive exercise.

Happy Surfing!
Interesting ideas:
Name Blending {Anktangle}
Names are important. They give us identity. What if you don't feel proud of your heritage or relate to your last name? Upon marriage, do you change your last name to your husband's? Or your husband changes his last name to yours? Or hyphenate? I haven't heard of this idea though: blend a name together. With letters from both family names, make a new last name (not in the family tree!) to represent your own family. Good luck to them!
Your Mini-Guide to Removing Stuff From Stuff {Crunchy Betty}
This post has awesome ideas for removing stuff (labels, makeup, stains) from stuff (jars, face, furniture) naturally!
Organization: Removing Rocks or Just Moving Them Around? {Organizing Your Way}
I loved this illustration. What's the sand and water in my life? Social media, Internet, TV… what should the gravel be? Hobbies, interests and projects… and what should the big rocks be? Family, myself and happiness. Looks like my priorities are completely backward, meaning I can't fit it all in my life (in order to fit everything in the mason jar, one needs to start with the big rocks!)
Showing up is Enough {Crafting My Life}
I remember at my Associate of Arts ceremony, the guest speaker Larry Miller told us 99% of life is "showing up". He said he was surprised how many people don't even show up to job interviews. I just need to show up and start enjoying life, not fearing it.
What is all this talk about princesses? {guest post at Anktangle}
Another perspective into the fairly-new princess-crazed society of ours. She also has book recommendations at the end.
Family Time: Meal Time Conversation Starters {Childhood 101 via Not Just Cute}
My dad would ask us, "What did you learn today?" That's been so ingrained in me that I think I'll do that too, but we'll see. I just heard something interesting the other day from billionaire Sara Blakely, founder of Spanx. She said that her dad would ask, "What did you FAIL at today?" She would say something like, "I tried out for the basketball team and didn't make it." And then he would be excited and give her a high-5. This blew me away although I see the value in it. If we are so afraid to try new things because we may fail, we won't get too far. I know that I'm personally afraid of failure. It certainly gives me a new perspective in asking questions at the dinner time. In my head I'm trying out the phrase, "How did you improve your day/how did you make your day better?"
Quality of Mother-Toddler Relationship Linked to Teen Obesity {Science Daily via Janet Lansbury}
"Rather than blaming parents for childhood obesity, the researchers say these findings suggest that obesity prevention efforts should consider strategies to improve the mother-child bond and not focus exclusively on eating and exercise."
Parenting posts:
10 Books You Must Read Read To Your Daughter (Or How To Keep Your Daughter From Ending Up Like That Horrid Girl In Twilight) {Carrots for Michelmas via Simple Mom}
I like book lists, especially those made from mothers with the heading like "must-reads before college", etc. I hope my daughter reads more of the Classics than I do! I will totally love reading chapter books to/with her. And hopefully we can even do a mother and daughter book club with she's in elementary school, too!
10 Tips for Choosing Toys {Ask Dr. Sears®}
I like the suggestions "how many senses does it stimulate?"; "will I enjoy playing with this?" and "can it be enjoyed by both genders?"
Encouraging Independent Play {Childhood 101}
I like that she "fill[s] up her tank full of mama love again" and wants her daughter to play independently, understanding that her parents have duties to do around the house… especially with the little sibling on the way. (I hope that we have a little sibling on the way, soon, too!)
Tips and Ideas for Avoiding (or Overcoming) Postpartum Depression {Motherhood On A Dime via Pinterest}
I like the idea that taking care of yourself during pregnancy helps afterward, too.
Perfection Is Too Low a Standard {Aha! Parenting.com}
There are way too many quotable sentences in this post. I love the concept! Instead of using perfection as a measurement of success, she suggests using love. She adds, "Instead, can you guide today with faith that your child is blossoming and growing all the time, becoming her best self? What she needs from you, more than teaching, is the emotional nutrients to thrive: unconditional love, joy in who she is, faith in the friendliness of the universe and in her own goodness and ability to grow." ~Dr. Laura Markham
What is Positive Guidance, Exactly? {Not Just Cute}
I bought her e-book and enjoyed reading it. This post defines Positive Guidance and what it means, and she busts the myths surrounding the philosophy.
Did my child just say §#%! ? Four Positive Ways to Curb Cursing and Profanity. {Authentic Parenting}
Good ideas for me to keep in mind. Except that in our situation, I now swear more than my husband.
Activities for toddlers:
Sensory Play: Sound eggs {The Iowa Farmer's Wife}
I really like this idea, like memory for the ears than for the eyes. I'm just trying to think of what to use. She suggests jingle bells, beans, marbles, and pompoms. I like that she said that she needed to practice with her daughter a lot. It gives me confidence to try something like this knowing that it's okay if she won't get it right away.
Painting a rainbow of flowers: Lois Ehlert Style {Teach Preschool}
I love painting with new elements (like sponges). I just need to find these sponges! They look so cool!
St. Patrick's Day Yarn Art {Motherhood Your Way}
Crafting a rainbow with a "bow" shape and rainbow-colored yarn and glue.
Crafts and food:
Scratch-Off Chore Chart For Kids {No Time For Flashcards}
Awesome idea to do a scratch off card for kids. I like the idea to use it as a Stocking Stuffer, too!
Rainbow cupcakes {Meet the Dubiens}
Finally a rainbow cupcake that I can handle. I don't want to make six different colored-batter to make the real McCoy. This idea is just jelly beans for the rainbow and whipped topping for a cloud (on top of a plain ol' cupcake!)
Is All White Food "Bad" for You? {guest post at I can teach my child!}
Ideas for preparing cauliflower.
~Thanks for reading! Come back next week!~

Hi, sorry if this is the wrong place to post... wasn't sure where it would fit best. My homepage displays article snippets from different categories. The category name is shown right about the snippet. I would like to give each category it's own class so that I can give just the name that displays on each snippet different colors.
So for example I have the Category/Name "Breaking" and a Category/Name "NBA". On the pages that show the snippets and cat name, I would like "Breaking" to be blue and "NBA" to be red.
How to I assign different CSS classes for each of my categories?

Coming home is bittersweet for former deputy
Coming back home was always something to look forward to for Russell Hoskins. The 2002 Rosa Fort High School graduate served in both the US Army and US Air Force for more than a decade and has been stationed around the world including war zones. He left the military to pursue a civilian life and sought employment in his hometown, where he discovered a new battle – the search for work.
Hoskins worked as a sheriff's deputy for the Tunica County Sheriff's Department during his younger years and was ecstatic to return to his hometown duty, he said. However, he was soon disappointed when he wasn't offered an opportunity to protect and serve the people he knew, the people of Tunica.
"It's kind of like in the movies when the Vietnam veterans come back, and nobody wants to hire them," he said. "That's kind of how I feel."

I inquired about a craigslist ad for two barstools that were for sale. The description said durable, solid wood, very comfortable, etc. Here is the current link http://houston.craigslist.org/fuo/3406658317.html . The pictures looked nice so I called the listing which stated it was by owner. After talk of delivery I asked if this was a business. I was then told it was. I was given the address 99 Braeswood Houston, TX 77096 and was not given a name. I arrived at a Grocery store known as Belden's. After calling two more times it was explained to me that this "Business" is located behind the grocery store.
I finally found a door in an alley type area behind the store with one blue box truck, with the name Grand Slam Garage Sales on it, parked next to the door. [continued below]....
A small crack would imply just that, not a completely separated seat right? What a joke. Anyhow, sorry for the rant. The point is, DO NOT waste your time with this so called Business. It's a couple of friends selling items from a storage bin in the ghetto. If you see the number 713-291-8065, the address of 99 Braeswood Square, the name Grand slam or B and E garage sales .... run away!

We have a few locations where we store items that we sell. One of our locations is behind a grocery store named Belden's. It's just a warehouse location and doesn't have good lighting, so it can be a bit dark at certain times of the day. (It's not a showroom as most sales are done through delivery and online, but you can definitely see the items clearly.) The location is not in the "ghetto" by any means. It's in the Meyerland area of Houston.
The fact that it took this person 40 minutes to get to the location, had nothing to do with us. We answered his calls and gave him directions promptly. The crack was a small (less than half inch) crack on the seat that we honestly noticed when this guy did. Also note, if he would've purchased the stools and didn't want to keep them, we would have let him return them as we do care about making our customer's happy.
There were three people working at the time. They had on polo shirts with khaki shorts or jeans. One of the workers is a wood worker and offered to fix it. The man who seemed to be angry from the beginning, stormed out when he saw the bar stools and said that they didn't look like the pictures. The pictures weren't altered in any way whatsoever, so not sure how that's the case. We're truly sorry that he's an angry customer, but all we can do is defend what we know is the truth. Thanks for hearing our side and wish you the best.
Also, here are a few testimonials from our many happy customers:
