"The room was overall very clean, facilities also looked very brand-new. However, given the fact that it's a typical japanese hotel, the room was very small. Also, the staff did not quite seem to understand or be able to communicate in fluent english."

Things to see in Tokyo
Senso-ji Temple is Tokyo's largest and oldest Buddhist temple, and entry is free of charge. It also contains Asakusa Shrine, dedicated to the temple's founders, and now one of Tokyo's top attractions. Another sight worth checking out is Shibuya Crossing. At this famous junction, shoppers, business people, locals, and tourists heave together, waiting for the lights to all turn red simultaneously. It's a Tokyo tradition to get lost in the famous "scramble" as everyone crosses the road at the same time. Take a walk round Yoyogi Park, a meeting place for all sorts of clubs and social groups, to see colorful hip hop dancers and rockabilly music gangs hanging out. Admission to the park is free and bikes can be rented for further exploration. For the best low-cost nightlife in Tokyo, head to the Golden Gai, where 6 interwoven alleyways teem with 200 shanty-style bars, nightclubs, and food joints.
Cheap/economy hotels in Tokyo
There are an endless number of budget hotels in Tokyo that are well-established and cater to visitors of all kinds. Affordable accommodation in Tokyo varies in type, but most have one thing in common—amazing services. You'll find free WiFi in many of Tokyo's discount hotels as well as helpful staff who can assist you with booking tours and tickets. Bike rentals and laundry services are also common. Some establishments have bars, lounges, cafés, and even roof terraces on which to unwind. With the great amenities available, you won't be disappointed when planning a low-cost vacation in Tokyo.
Where to stay in Tokyo
Asakusa is the center of the traditional shitamachi, or low city. This walkable neighborhood is where old Japan best survives. Stay here to be surrounded by temples, traditional food, and a more homey, residential atmosphere. The area around Ueno Park is also popular for cheap hotels in Tokyo. Home to iconic cherry blossom trees, several museums, and even a zoo, this stunning public park allows you to experience the city's unique natural beauty. Shinjuku is the center of the city's bustling nightlife and entertainment, so choose a hotel here to be close to the action, with some of the best restaurants in Tokyo right on your doorstep.
How to get to Tokyo
Tokyo has two airports. Narita is the most-used for international flights, but Haneda is closer to the city, so keep an eye out for connecting flights. From Haneda you can be downtown in just 15 minutes by train. From Narita, this will take about 1 hour, but cheaper trains run to Nippori and Ueno in around 1.5 hours. The Super Shuttle bus also goes to Ueno and Asakusa and is a great budget option. Buses and trains connect to all of Japan's major cities also, and Tokyo's metro system is one of the best in the world for city travel.

Ok Sabres fans I have a bone to pick with you… Zenon Konopka. Seriously? Let me just preface my rant by stating the he seems like an interesting (albeit odd) guy. He's a "local" guy (Niagara on the Lake,) which apparently means you can be from anywhere within a couple hours driving distance. He grew up attending games at the Aud and supposedly always dreamed of playing for the Sabres (I'd like some proof such as a 4th grade essay about what he wanted to be when he grew up. Not buying it.) He has a pet rabbit named Hoppy that took social media by storm (because what else do we have to talk about this season?) Lastly, even if he's not so good at hockey, he's good at tweeting.
I understand he was initially brought in to just be another body with the recent rash of injuries. I get he's really (really) good at face-offs even if according to some local media members those don't matter. I know he's tough and fits the mold of Nolan's ideal "nose to the grindstone" type of player. I know all of that. I also know when he was claimed off waivers from the Wild it could have just been an under the radar addition, but that's not what happened. The guy became an immediate, local celebrity.
In the midst of a crappy season every fan base needs something to cling onto. Something that makes watching the games tolerable even if your team is far out of playoff contention. As Buffalo sports fans, most of us have gotten pretty good at finding those hidden gems of storylines. Things fans of other teams would think we're nuts for finding interesting. THAT is why I'm so disappointed in all of you. Did we really need to throw a goddamn parade for Zenon Konopka? A 4th liner. I love the Sabres and I love our fans, but that to me just screams pathetic.
It's not like we haven't had "local" guys on this team in recent history. Patty Kaleta is from Angola and current teen heartthrob Marcus Foligno is actually from Buffalo. I admit I've never seen a grown man who is so into a rabbit before so I guess that's kinda interesting (in a frightening sort of way,) but I just am sick of being the laughing stock of the league this season and this isn't helping. Last place in the NHL, John Scott skating on your team's PP & Stanley Cup type buzz for a 4th line enforcer. Ugh.
Some people tweeted me telling me they'd rather see a guy like Konopka out there than McBain or Leino and I can see your point. I'm fine with him being on the team, especially with those face-off numbers, but can we just play it a little cooler? It's like meeting a girl at a bar and after about 20 minutes asking her to marry you. Lets institute the play it hard to get rule Sabres fans. Have all the butterflies you want about Konopka, just do it with a little more discretion. When the team wins the Stanley Cup THEN Hoppy can become our rally monkey and he can have a jersey, but until then let's focus on more boring stuff like winning hockey games.

(Don't miss Part 2!) Extraordinary footage of hippo fight on land. These hippos practically ran into our truck on a dark and otherwise quiet night in Kruger National Park. Both severely injured and exhausted, they fought viciously to death... unbelievable to witness, as hippos only fight under water, and very very rarely kill each other. What was even more alarming and unnatural, was the cannibalizing of the surrendering hippo. The challenging hippo continued to literally eat him alive, not walking away as most hippos would typically do. This was a gruesome, horrifying, sad, yet riveting fight to watch. They were so close to our truck, we could smell the blood. Our truck provided a quick escape when several times the hippos got dangerously close to us... Only a few hours later, when we returned to the site, the losing hippo was already but a carcass, and a pack of hyenas lazed around, their hunger truly sated.

2008 Nissan Frontier XE 4dr King Cab 6.1 ft. SB (2.5L 4cyl 5M)
It is a truck. Don't expect a car ride. Love the truck itself. Hate the gas mileage but it is 4WD. Gets me where I am going. Plenty of "Let's Go!".
After 18 mos, still a great truck and I am very happy with it. No mechanical problems at all. Service at dealership has been great. Just got back from a trip into the Colorado Mtns. and it did great on the steep and winding roads. Plenty of power with the 4cylinder. Got my best gas mileage yet of 27.3 mpg coming down out of the mountains. So far have averaged 24 mpg in 13,000 miles of driving with 90% as highway driving. No towing.
High seating position with good all around vision if you fold down the passenger seat or take off its headrest. I removed the rear jump seat headrests to give better vision outward.
A/C was working very had at 100 degrees F. to keep the interior cool. It was marginal at that kind of temperature outside. otherwise it works well in more moderate temperatures. I have not tinting on windows so that might improve cooling if I had had that.
This is about 6 mos of use and 5,600 miles on the odometer. Turning circle is rather large but this is do in part to the longer wheel base and that is what helps provide a smooth highway ride. Still very comfortable on long trips. Very quiet interior, with little road, tire, or wind noise. I have averaged 24 mpg on regular fuel since I purchased this 6 mos ago. Mostly highway driving.
Disc brakes all the way around, very good shocks give smooth ride. Smooth shifting tranny. Like all the pockets in the doors and rear bedlight comes on when doors have been opened (very helpful at night)
Could use steering wheel telescopic feature. Also, center console arm rest should be lengthened so if seat is pulled forward the driver's elbow can reach it. Have as standard a locking gas cap or a fuel cap release in the cab.
I test drove the Tacoma before trying out the Frontier. I had no intention of purchasing a four banger, but after giving both the Tacoma and Frontier 4 cyls a shot, I wasn't let down at all. I like both trucks, but I picked up the Frontier for a couple of thousand less than a comparable Tacoma. Currently averaging 22+ MPG with mixed city/hiway driving and a lot of up and down RPM fluctuation while it is still in the break-in period.
Peppy four banger with good gas mileage so far.
Tilt/telescopic steering would be nice.
I just purchased this truck within the past week so please keep this in mind when reviewing this score. This is an impressive truck with a quiet and smooth ride (could feel no vibration from the 4cylinder engine). this is a 4x2, with manual 5 speed tranny. Shifts smoothly. Great outward visibility. As soon as the artic conditions moderate here I plan to drive this vehicle a lot. Right now truck and I are hibernating. I will review this truck once a year.
Manual transmission, a/c, and cruise control. High sitting position with good view. AM/FM, CD radio.
I am long of leg so the steering wheel is a little out of reach unless I move in closer to the steering wheel to the point where legs can't stretch out. A telescopic steering wheel would have been nicer but this is livable.

Time to look ahead to Sunday's decider! Rob Crosby has a full look at both teams and what to expect ...

The Newtown Jets claimed two badly-needed competition points when they defeated the Central Coast Storm 22-20 in the VB NSW Cup match played at Henson Park on Saturday. The two teams were locked up at 10-all at halftime and 14-all midway through the second half. The Jets looked to be faltering when they trailed 20-14 with only 12 minutes remaining but they staged a thrilling fightback in the last ten minutes to snatch a thrilling victory.
Both teams came into this match with plenty of incentive - the Jets were battling to stay in fourth place while the Storm (Melbourne

ZX-R: the new frontier in high performance.
Performance, design and carbon for the new expansion chamber from LeoVince Scoot that wants to rethink its super sport.
Silencer: large-size stainless steel body with enlarged exit pipe. Covered in carbon fibre and attached with an Aluminium clamp.
Expansion chamber body: made of special 10/10 mm steel, featuring an "open" double-chamber structure covered with deadening material. Its cones (up to a maximum of 9) are TIG hand-welded. When the construction has been completed, a transparent varnish is applied that protects the expansion chamber from the elements, whilst at the same time enhancing its racing design by leaving all the welding visible.
Homologation: the ZX-R expansion chamber is CE marked, so it can be used on the open road.
Additional equipment: The ZX-R kit also contains a set of springs and rollers to boost the variator performance according to the particular features of the exhaust and engine for which it has been developed.

The present invention relates to obtaining ultrasound images of body cavities, lumens, or vessels and, particularly, to obtaining images of coronary arteries. The present invention discloses a sheath containing a guide wire lumen, an ultrasound probe lumen, and a lumen which alternately serves as a passage for either the guide wire or the probe.
Invasive ultrasound imaging catheters are designed for use in conjunction with a guide wire. In the past, four different methods have been used to adapt the imaging catheter to a guide wire.
In the first method a guide wire tip is attached to the distal end of an imaging sheath and is known as a "fixed wire" design. This method has been used with mechanically rotated probes. The design, however, has two disadvantages, first, the wire cannot be left across a lesion while the imaging catheter is withdrawn and replaced with a different device, and secondly, fixed wire devices are more difficult to "steer" than the common "steerable" and "removable" guide wires. An example of a fixed wire tip is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,794,931 --Yock.
A second type of catheter, known as transducer-array catheters, have been designed so that a guide wire can be threaded through a lumen which passes coaxially through the array. This design allows a user to place the imaging catheter over a guide wire by the same methods practiced with standard dilatation catheters. Transducer array catheters work with electronically scanned transducer arrays however this type of catheter design cannot be adapted for use with mechanically-rotated probes. An example of a transducer-array catheter is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,917,097 --Proudian et al.
The third catheter design uses a dual lumen sheath. A lumen for the guide wire and a parallel lumen for a rotating ultrasound probe are provided. Unfortunately, the side-by-side positioning of the wire and probe lumens causes the catheter to be of a larger cross-section than is necessary for ultrasound imaging. Large catheters are disadvantageous because they reduce or stop blood flow in small or narrowed arteries. A product of this type is sold by Cardiovascular Imaging Systems, Inc. of Mountain View, Ca. (USA).
Finally, a fourth design for this type of catheter provides a single-lumen sheath positioned over a guide wire and across the section of the vessel to be imaged. The wire is then removed and "replaced" with an ultrasound probe. This design has the advantage of yielding a catheter diameter which is not much larger than the probe diameter. However, using the single-lumen sheath in conjunction with "over-the-wire" catheters is time consuming. For example, to remove the ultrasound catheter and position a dilatation catheter a user would first remove the probe, then position the guide wire and remove the sheath. Finally, the user would place the dilatation catheter over the wire. In contrast, a user can exchange one dilatation catheter for another by removing the first catheter and placing the second catheter over the wire. The time difference can be very important when working within the coronary arteries. An example of this type of device is sold by InterTherapy, Inc. of Santa Ana, Ca. (USA).
Thus, it can be seen that there is a long-felt yet unfilled need to provide a design which permits a catheter containing a mechanically rotated probe to be steered into place using a guide wire while maintaining a minimum cross-section.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide an invasive-ultrasound imaging sheath that yields a practical compromise between maximized blood flow around the sheath and minimized catheter exchange time.
Another object of the invention is to provide the user with a sheath that can be quickly retracted from an ischemic area and then quickly repositioned after the ischemia passes.
A further object of the invention is to provide a sheath of the above nature which can be of very small cross-section in the distal length.
Still another object of the invention is to provide an ultrasound imaging sheath which can be used to obtain images of the coronary arteries. The sheath is located in the small diameter coronary during imaging, and reduces blood flow for only a brief time beyond the duration of imaging.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a method for using improved sheaths.
Thus, in a preferred embodiment the present invention provides a flexible sheath for positioning an ultrasound imaging probe within a region of a vessel comprising a distal tip portion with a lumen adapted to accept a guide wire, a flexible single lumen intermediate section connected proximally to the distal tip portion, and a dual lumen region extending proximally from the flexible intermediate section. The dual lumen region comprises a wire lumen adapted to accept a guide wire and a probe lumen adapted to accept an ultrasound probe wherein the probe lumen and wire lumen connect with the single lumen intermediate section.
Most preferably, the sheath of the present invention includes a tapered flexible tip at the distal portion which has a lumen for accepting the guide wire and a radio opaque marker for X-ray viewing. Similarly, in certain preferred embodiments, a radio opaque marker for X-ray viewing will be disposed within the flexible intermediate section. Most preferably, the intermediate section lumen and the probe lumen are coaxial and the wire lumen is connected to the intermediate-section lumen at a tapered transition. Additionally, in certain embodiments of the present invention a three lumen section may also be provided in place of the proximal dual lumen section of the exemplary embodiment described herein.
The present invention also discloses methods of ultrasonically imaging a region of a subject by using an ultrasound probe, a guide wire and an ultrasound sheath substantially made in accordance with the present invention. The guide wire is advanced through the subject until the distal tip of the wire is distal to the region to be imaged and the intermediate portion of the sheath is then advanced over the wire until it has passed through the region to be imaged. The wire is then withdrawn from the single lumen portion of the sheath while holding the sheath stationary within the subject and leaving the distal tip of the wire within the dual lumen portion of the sheath. The ultrasound probe tip is next advanced into the intermediate portion of the sheath while holding the sheath stationary within the subject and the probe is activated to obtain ultrasound images.
In certain embodiments of the methods of the present invention a further step permitting additional over-the-wire invasive procedures to be performed are disclosed that include the steps of holding the sheath stationary and retracting the probe from the single lumen portion of the sheath and then advancing the wire through the sheath tip, whereby the distal tip of the wire is again disposed at a point beyond the region to be imaged. The wire is then held stationary and the sheath and the probe are retracted whereby the probe and sheath are removed from the subject thereby leaving the wire in place for additional procedures. Also, certain methods of the present invention also permit recovery from ischemic episodes during use that include the steps of holding the sheath stationary within the subject, retracting the probe until it is disposed proximal to the single lumen, and advancing the wire through the single lumen. The wire is held stationary within the artery and the probe and sheath are withdrawn until the tip of the sheath is outside the narrow portion of the artery whereby increased blood flow occurs to combat the ischemia. After the ischemia episode passes, the above-described methods are undertaken at the step of advancing the sheath through the region to be imaged.
The above and other objects and features of the present invention will appear after careful consideration of the preceding and following description including the drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal cross-section of the distal end of a sheath made in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the distal end of a sheath made according to the invention taken along line 2--2 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a partial view of the indicated portion of the sheath shown in FIG. 1 illustrating the transition region of the sheath.
FIG. 4 is a partial view of the indicated portion of the sheath shown in FIG. 1 illustrating an atraumatic tip.
Referring now to FIG. 1, the distal portion of a sheath 100 made in accordance with the present invention is illustrated. Those of ordinary skill will understand that the sheath 100 is typically substantially tubular and that FIG. 1 illustrates a longitudinal cross-section of the sheath 100. Those of ordinary skill will further be familiar with the types of materials and methods used to manufacture sheaths such as those disclosed herein. Preferably, the sheath 100 of the present invention is lubricated on its exterior surface and may also be lubricated on its interior surface. Assuming a coronary artery imaging application, the complete sheath 100 is preferably about 1.5 meters long. The distal tip portion of the sheath is preferably about 1.0 cm long and is flexible so that it may be advanced over a guide wire that has been threaded through a coronary artery. The distal tip portion of the sheath 100 is soft and tapered as explained below with reference to FIG. 4 so that it is atraumatic to the artery. The inside diameter of the distal tip portion of the sheath is preferably tapered as shown. This taper permits a guide wire tip to move freely through the distal tip, which is preferably radio opaque or contains an opaque marker 102 to indicate the sheath-tip location in X-ray views. The inside diameter is most preferably sized to accept a guide wire and is about 15 or 20 mils across.
The intermediate section of the sheath adjoining the distal portion is a flexible elongated substantially tubular section that is also substantially transparent to the acoustic energy used for imaging. The interior diameter of the intermediate section of the sheath 100 is large enough to pass either a guide wire or an imaging probe. The outside diameter is preferably only a few thousandths of an inch larger than the interior diameter, thus the sheath wall in this region is relatively thin. A wide range of choices exist for selecting the length of this portion of the sheath 100; a short length, for example 1 cm, could be used. However, a longer length, for example 10 cm, allows image collection at various positions in the artery without repositioning the sheath 100.
The region of the sheath 100 near cross-sectional arrows 2--2 shown in FIG. 1 is comprised of flexible dual lumen tubing. A guide wire lumen 110 and a probe lumen 120 are disposed side-by-side so that a wire and a probe may simultaneously be inserted into this portion of the sheath 100. The diameters of the guide wire lumen 110 and probe lumen 120 are thus sized to accept the wire and probe. In a preferred embodiment, this section of the sheath 100 is generally at least 10-20 cm long so that the wire can be retracted from the distal portions of the sheath 100 without accidentally retracting it from the dual lumen region. It is also feasible to extend the dual lumen region of the sheath 100 to a length that includes the proximal end of the sheath 100, i.e., toward the left side of the sheath 100 illustrated in FIG. 1.
The transition area between the dual lumen region and the intermediate section is smoothly tapered to make the sheath 100 atraumatic to the artery being imaged. As explained below, this section of the sheath can also be marked so that it can be seen in X-ray views. However, those of ordinary skill will realize that the physical marker can be placed in the sections of the sheath closer to the proximal or distal ends but should be kept near the transition section so that the user can easily infer this section's location in the artery. FIG. 1 shows the probe lumen 120 connecting straight into the lumen of the intermediate section while the wire lumen 110 is offset. This is just one example of how the taper in the section near the dual lumen can be accomplished; either or both lumens 110,120 of the dual lumen region can be offset from the lumen in the intermediate section.
The proximal section of the sheath 100 is a single lumen tubing which passes the ultrasound probe. It extends from the dual lumen region to essentially the proximal end of the sheath 100.
FIG. 2 shows the dual lumen region of the sheath in cross-section as indicated by arrows 2--2 in FIG. 1. The cross-section shows substantially circular inside and outside surfaces; however, it should be understood that other shapes could readily be used. From FIG. 2 one of ordinary skill can appreciate that the intermediate section is substantially smaller in cross-sectional area than the dual lumen region. Thus, with a given ultrasound probe diameter, the sheath of the present invention allows imaging in a smaller artery than is possible with a sheath design wherein the dual lumen region resides in the imaged portion of the artery. A numerical example is useful to illustrate this point. Assuming currently available probes and wires are used, a wire lumen 110 of about 0.016"(0.4 mm) and a probe lumen 120 of about 0.045"(1.1 mm) could be chosen. For reliability and construction ease, the minimum wall thicknesses in the sheath are at least several mils, for example 0.005"(0.1 mm). From these numbers it is possible to calculate the ratio, R, of the cross-sectional area of the dual lumen region of the sheath 100 with respect to the cross-sectional area of the sheath in the flexible intermediate section, thus: ##EQU1## (Values in parentheses in mils).
The sheath design of the present invention therefore offers an advantage over previous designs that include the distal end of the guide wire lumen terminating in the distal tip. The advantage is that with the sheath 100 of the present invention a smaller cross-section is placed in the section of artery to be imaged, thereby reducing blood flow blockage. As ultrasound probes are made smaller the ratio R will become larger and the advantage increased.
FIG. 3 shows an enlarged view of the transition section where the wire lumen 110 and probe lumen 120 join. A location for a proximal radio opaque marker 104, as discussed above is also shown. The radio opaque marker 104 is preferably formed using a metallized band comprised of platinum or gold alloy.
FIG. 4 shows an enlarged view of the distal tip portion of the sheath, which preferably includes a distal radio opaque marker 102 discussed above. The marker 102 can also be formed using a metal band.
The present invention also provides improved methods of obtaining images. Consider using the sheath of the present invention during a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) procedure. An ultrasound probe is inserted into the probe lumen 120 with the probe tip proximal to the transition section. Doses of contrast media are supplied where needed to allow X-ray visualization and anatomic orientation. A guide wire is introduced through a guiding catheter and into the proper coronary artery. After the wire tip is positioned on the distal side of the restriction or lesion, the wire is used to guide the sheath 100 into the artery and through the stenosis. The flexible intermediate section is then placed within the stenosis using X-ray visualization, and the guide wire is retracted so that the distal tip of the wire resides in the wire lumen 110 and is clear of the intermediate section. The ultrasound imaging probe is then advanced into the intermediate section to obtain desired images. If the patient becomes ischemic before needed images are obtained, the probe tip can be extracted a short distance into the dual lumen section and the wire advanced through the distal tip of the sheath 100 into the artery. The sheath 100 and probe may then be retracted from the lesion and thereby allow increased blood flow through the lesion. When the ischemia passes, the sheath 100 and probe are repositioned and the needed images can then be obtained.
After obtaining images, the probe tip is drawn into the dual lumen region and the wire advanced a short distance through the sheath tip. The sheath 100 and probe are then withdrawn until outside the body and free from the wire. This last step leaves the wire and guiding catheter ready for use with a dilatation catheter. After the dilatation, additional images can be obtained by repeating the previously described steps.
The use of the present invention has been described in conjunction with a therapeutic PTCA procedure. It is understood, however, that the sheath 100 disclosed herein can also be used in conjunction with other invasive procedures or as part of a diagnostic procedure. Additionally, those of ordinary skill will realize that a third lumen could be incorporated proximal of the intermediate section into the sheath 100 illustrated and described. The sheath 100 could then be used to deliver other devices, probes or sensors and the like, permitting other signals or substances to be introduced into the patient, other parameters monitored or other therapies initiated. Thus, although the present invention has been described in what is presently considered the most practical and preferred embodiment it is to be understood that the invention is not to be limited to the disclosed embodiment. The invention is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Farm Share, Food Charity, Faces Closure Due To County Budget Axe
Don't take food out of their mouths.
image via farmshare.org
What happens when a government starves its people? Dade County will find out the hard way if it axes Farm Share from its budget as proposals suggest.
Farm Share is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization that provides food directly to at least 6,500 Miami-Dade families a month.
They also supply 250 agencies using volunteer and inmate labor to distribute food donations from local farms, USDA commodities and other sources.
Their mission's focus is the distribution of fresh fruits and vegetables, as opposed to the canned offerings of most other organizations. Furthermore, these items move through a sophisticated distribution network that operates locally, and statewide. The county will literally take food out of the mouths of working class families, kids, and the elderly all over Florida if they decide to eliminate funding for Farm Share.

Located in the mall complex, gets pretty crowded on the weekends food is decent. They brew and serve their own beer so there isnt much of selection.
t0rin0 (1529) Do Not Resuscitate, California | July 22, 2013
Stopped in on the way somewhere on my first trip to Minneapolis. Not much to say about this place in terms of the beer, food, and service since they all seem to be about the same. The food isnt bad, the beer is meh, and service is friendly. I showed up pretty late in the evening so there werent a ton of people there which made the place all the more enjoyable. I think my favorite part of this place was the stone counter top on the bar.

Standard Granite City with their own beers. OK happy hour but no interesting beers. I like the bar area, for this part of town.

Any trauma to the tissues of the body can result in a hematoma. If only the low-pressure capillaries in the skin are disrupted, the hematoma that develops is usually no more than a simple bruise. A larger and potentially more serious hematoma develops if veins are damaged. Hominick's injury appeared to be an even more significant form of hematoma: one caused by arterial bleeding. More »

Virus Whitepapers
Given the advances attackers have been making, it is very unlikely that organizations will be able to keep motivated and patient adversaries out of their networks. In most cases, the best one can hope for is to detect targeted attacks early and limit the amount of information the attackers can obtain access to. In this whitepaper, we identify the timeline of a typical attack sequence and the tools available for implementing custom defence strategies.
This story is becoming frustratingly old. Cyber threats are continuously advancing in their adaptability speed, sophistication, and degree of stealthiness. At the same time, the exposed footprint is expanding. More business operations are moving online and end-user devices—corporate-issued and user-owned—are expanding in number and variety. A reasonable question asked by executives responsible for making decisions on their organisations' security budgets is whether their money and resources are being spent wisely. Are their businesses buying and using the best mix of security technologies to meet their needs and obligations? Read on.

The FireEye Advanced Threat Report for the second half of 2011 is based on research and trend analysis conducted by the FireEye Malware Intelligence Labs. This report provides an overview of advanced targeted attacks in the second half of 2011 and was developed to provide insights into the current threat landscape, evolving advanced persistent threat (APT) tactics, and the level of infiltration seen in organisational networks today. This is not a typical threat report with just tallies of the millions of well-known malware or billions of spam messages. Read more.
There are a lot of misconceptions out there about safe web browsing. You might think you're being safe. But without the facts it's next to impossible to stay protected against today's changing threats. In this paper we describe the top five myths of safe web browsing, what the facts really are, and what you can do to stay secure.
Small businesses are especially vulnerable to computer viruses and lost or stolen data, since they typically lack the IT resources to deal with these threats. Inadequately protected computers open the door to annoying infections, or worse, serious business disruption. Below are five simple and effective strategies to help you protect your business against an ever-increasing number of threats.
In 2010, the threat posed by the web is sharper and more extensive than ever before. Almost any website can now host malware, or forward you to one that does. Indeed, an infection is much more likely to result from a visit to a perfectly legitimate website that has been compromised with a virus or spyware – than from one set up specifically to spread malware.

The Iowa Guitar Quartet (David Crabbs, Thomas Finn, Steven Kennedy, Dave Reynolds) formed in 2016 as an extension of the Heart of Iowa Classical Guitar Society. Intricately tied into the classical guitar community in central Iowa as teachers and performers, combining their talents seemed like a natural progression.

text: Review Content When it works it works great but when it starts to wear out This machine has done well for two years and then it wouldnt shuffle very good. Then I got to looking at it the rubber treads were worn off the rubber belts. Was wondering if they could be replaced. awesome shuffler! I would buy this again we play numerous games of Hand and Foot!! great fun Shuffling in a flash All I need is 4 sz c batteries Loads of family for holidays Friends get together Time Saver!!!! The older we get the more "tools" we need and now we girls can squeeze more card games in while hubby is away or napping.We can use it with ease no matter how arthritic our hands are. Works great We play cards frequently and shuffling numerous decks takes a lot of time. This speeds up the process. shuffler is great. so easy to use. play cards with the elderly , and no one can shuffle cards anymore. makes playing cards so much easier using the Shuffler. I love Sharper Image card shufflers. We have a single deck shuffler by Sharper Image for 15 years and I love it. I was upset we didnt buy 2 because I cannot find another single deck shuffler. We use it for Bridge and when we play canasta we had to keep reshuffling This shuffler makes it so easy to shuffle the 4 decks and we can safe the single deck shuffler for bridge. I worry it will wear out one of these days. product works well..shipping was awful. Hard used for card club two times a week. Great product. better than shuffling by hand Doesnt come with directions, but is fairly intuitive. Did take a couple of tries before I was able to operate it as designed. Tray tends to pop out a bit when at load limit, and cards sometimes load askew, but easy to fix. Overall, its nice for arthritic hands and does save a little time. Works Great! This is very sturdy. I have had many $5 plastic shufflers and this isnt that! Actually has some metal parts to it. looking forward to much use! The card shuffled works great!!! It shuffles really fast!!! Helps in handling large card quantities. Helps save time and helps extend card life. Great Playing hand and foot with 10 ladies Great Buy! Play card games. Fast! The cards "jam" on each other sometimes. Valuable Tool for Card Players Used at weekly clubhouse social card games The card shuffler "aint what it used to be". A friend of mine purchased a 2 card shuffler from you about 10 years ago. The quality of that product was superior. Since you dont make the 2 pack shuffler I thought that the 6 pack would be just as good. It definitely was not. The plastic is cheap and it is just like all the others that were a lot cheaper. I was very disappointed in the Sharper Image putting out a product that is so inferior. I have returned the shuffler. Its helpful I have a wounded finger and was having trouble shuffling cards for the Hand and Foot game. Its been a great help. The "L" shaped catcher has to be steadied as it moves down with a load of cards, or it will fall out. six deck automatic card shuffler great for shuffling multiple decks of cards this would make a great gift needed slight modification for smaller cards, uno deck. Great card shuffler Shuffling five or six decks of cards! Love this we play cards at least 4 times aweek and this helps out alot. Great affordable gift for card players Bought it for my 13 year old son who loves playing cards with the adults, but when its his turn to shuffle the cards he is still a little slow. This was a great purchase, he doesnt feel that he is holding up the play any more. Six-Deck Automatic Card Shuffler My extended family and I often get together for card games on the weekends. I am unable to shuffle due to a medical condition. Now, instead of getting another player to shuffle the decks for me, I am able to use this gift and do it myself. Great The six deck shuffler isnt like the 2 and 4 deck shuffler. This one is made much better and more efficient. Unknown Does 6 decks of cards very well. So far love the shuffler. Love it We play with 6 decks and it does a wonderful job.... this is a very product this is a good product for us as we use it all time in our card games Great product! Works as advertised!

During evaluations, a coach may say he doesn't believe a kid has enough strength to play in the Big Ten. There is a simple response given by Iowa, if they like what they see on tape; 'Send him to Coach Doyle.' Another coach might question technique learned at the high school level. The simple response given? 'Send him to Coach Kirk Ferentz.'
Last year, Iowa shocked a few people when they offered and signed Rashad Dunn late in the recruiting game. Many southern schools simply looked at the 6-foot-3 250-pounder and felt he'd never have the size or strength to be a big-time offensive lineman. Iowa did not worry that, as they looked at the way Rashad moved his feet and his overall athleticism. They saw a player who was just oozing potential and needed the proper guidance at the college level. Most importantly, they saw a kid that was willing to learn and wanted to work.
It appears that same scenario may be playing out with McKeesport, PA offensive lineman Lawrence Green in the Class of 2005.
"Lawrence transferred to McKeesport from an inner-city school right before his junior season," said head coach George Smith. "I wasn't sure I wanted to play him right away with some of the (transfer) eligibility concerns and not knowing how well he could play. What I found out is he is very willing to learn and is very intelligent."
Combine that last statement with what Coach Smith believes is natural god-given ability.
"He is just a naturally born athlete; he is just so athletic. He is the starting center on our basketball team. He has natural strength and the natural ability to move, but the best part is he is not there yet," added Smith.
When Coach Smith says "he is not there yet", that is not a disparaging remark against his star lineman. What he is saying is exactly how Iowa approaches some aspects of its recruiting; that Green's best days are ahead of him.
"I sent film out to Iowa, and they were quite impressed. Like most of the schools, they saw that he has so much upside. I know Lawrence was very impressed when he heard he had an Iowa offer," Smith said.
To this point, Green has only been offered by UCONN and MAC schools while receiving some interest from Pitt and Penn State.
Lastly, with Green's best days ahead of him, I asked Coach Smith to inform readers what Lawrence needed to work on, specifically.
"Well, he is naturally strong, but he can always get stronger from lifting. He will have to continue to improve his technique, as well. We run a wishbone offense, and we don't really do any pulling with him. He plays in a three-technique and we send him right into that defender. He will likely have to learn a new system in college."

- Hours: Open 24 hours every day
- Admission: US$20 per car entrance fee
San Francisco ATTRACTIONS See all
Yosemite National Park
Marvel at the majestic profile of Half Dome, climb the mighty mecca that is El Capitan, or hike into Tuolumne Grove, where gigantic, stunning Sequoia's surround you. Immerse yourself in the drenching mists of Yosemite Falls, the gemstone lakes of the high country's subalpine wilderness, and Hetch Hetchy's pristine pathways.
There are walking trails everywhere, flat and steep, short and long, waterfalls to see, and beautiful swimming spots on the river. There are bike trails throughout the valley, dead flat, and on a hot day mainly off the roads and under the forest cover; the coolest spot to be.
In the middle of the valley, flat green meadows flanked by tall stands of trees surrounded by the most amazing rock faces unfold in every direction. Here you'll find the Visitor's Center, which is handy if you want to stock up on water, find a bathroom, or maybe just seek out some shade.

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.0 /5 from 137 reviews
We thought our hotel room was really good. Knowing the hotel was not near any restaurant we opted to eat in. We think the hotel could have better meals, even if it meant charging a few euro more. The food was warm (at best) and nothing special. Perhaps our mistake in opting for the Menu of Day. Ask for a la carte?
Very nice hotel a shame that the bar/restaurant are a trucker's cafe.

Jon L. Oldham

That's why not to buy poisons like bug poison. The effective cleaner is basically something like ammonia, that's hard to live in, but vanishes. All of these other products people are using and leaving residue of (for example in my house) are the ACTUAL FOOD for all of these unique bugs that live here, and never live in my house when I can control the poison (never use any under any circumstance).
