In the early Middle Age period, Champagne France was a duchy under Merovingian rulers. By the 10th century, the duchy of Champagne became a hereditary estate known as the county of Champagne. Then, in the 12th and 13th century, the county became well-known for commercial fairs where merchants from all Europe were present. At that period, the Capital was the city of Troyes. Finally, in 1314, Champagne became a province of the royal domain of France when the count of Champagne , who had inherited the area, succeeded as Louis X, king of France. The successive wars of the Revolution, the Empire and the beginnings of the Republic left, until the signing of the Reims Armistice in 1945, painful scars of history on the soil of Champagne.
The Champagne-Ardennes region is rich in events that made history of France and has preserved several vestiges such as the Cathedral of Reims. For a thousand years, the cathedral was one of the privileged places in French history, providing the setting for the coronation of kings. Mostly built during the 13th century and completed in the 15th century, this monument is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, remarkable not only for its architecture but also for its dimension.
To visit on the Marne route: Domaine de Bacchus in Reuil, Statue du Pape Urbain II in Chatillon sur Marne: this statue, dedicated to Pope Urbain II, was launched in 1887. Urbain II was born in Chatillon sur Marne around 1040. Château de Boursault: inspired by the famous château Chambord in the Loire Valley, this castle was built between 1843 and 1848 for Madame Cliquot, owner of the Champagne producing company Veuve Cliquot. Ecole 1900 in Oeuilly: an ecomuseum with the reconstitution of a school and a village from the early 1900s.
TO VISIT IN REIMS:Cathedral Notre dame de Reims; Roman remains, with the oldest monument in Reims, the Porte de Mars ("Mars Gate", so called from a temple to Mars in the neighbourhood). Palace of Tau, an archiepiscopal palace, built between 1498 and 1509, and in part rebuilt in 1675, which was occupied by the kings on the occasion of their coronation. Place Royale, with a statue of Louis XV, and the Place Cardinal-Luçon, with an equestrian statue of Joan of Arc. Geography
The Champagne region is located in northeastern France. There are 4 departments in the Champagne region: Ardennes, Marne, Haute-Marne, and Aube.
Champagne consists mainly of a chalk plateau and is best known as the home of the sparkling white wine: the Champagne. 30,000 hectares of Champagne vineyards stretch as far as the eye can see over the rolling hillsides, dotted with picturesque villages . Most of the exported French champagne comes from the area around the cities of Reims and Epernay. The Champagne region is also known for the raising of sheep and the manufacture of wool being part of the economy.
- The boudin blanc de Rethel (white pudding)
- The andouillette de Troyes (small pork tripe sausages)
- The jambon des Ardennes (dried ham)
- Cheese: the creamy Chaource and the Langres (matured with marc de Champagne alcohol)
- Biscuits Roses de Reims (cookies): great with Champagne!
Important Champagne houses and small producers alike await the visitor to be able to share their passion: Mumm, Mercier, Moet & Chandon, Joseph Perrier, Perrier-Jouet, Taittinger, Veuve Cliquot, and more. (you can visit all thoise places on our Champagne cycling Tour)
Different slopes of Champagne vineyards: red, pink or white.
Most of the Champagne vineyards are between Reims and Epernay. Only Champagne produced in this region has the right to call itself "Champagne". Other versions are often called "sparkling wines"which contributes to why the true Champagne is so expensive.
- The region of Reims : Located less than two hours from Paris, this region is one of the most popular in Champagne because it houses numerous major Champagne houses and provides a lovely glimpse into the rich history of the area. The location where some 33 kings were crowned. There are also five sites located in the Reims region that have been classified by UNESCO as World Heritage sites :
- Notre Dame Cathedral
- The Abbey (and the Basilica) of Saint-Remi
- The Palais du Tau
- The Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame-en-Vaux in Châlons-en-Champagne
- The Basilica of Epine
- Verdun-History enthusiasts will be delighted in all that Verdun holds for them. One of the world's greatest battles occurred here during World War One, a time in history that will never be forgotten. The agony of this battle lasted eleven months and resulted in 700,000 causalities, the largest number recorded for a single battle. Visit monuments commemorating this period such as the Douaumont ossuary comprised of 130,000 unidentified soldiers from the battlefield. Among other memorials is the "Bayonet Trench"which marks the location where a dozen rifles were found projecting out of the ground; below each weapon was a French soldier believed to be attacked by surprise.
- Fortress of Sedan-This fortress' significance dates back to the Franco-Prussian war. Author Émile Zola refers to the importance of this castle in his novel, La Débâcle, and illustrates Napoleon III struggle to conquer the Prussians. When the Prussia troops invaded Sedan and surrounded the fortress, Napoleon was forced to surrender in a neighboring town. The Battle of Sedan resulted in the overthrow of France's Second Empire, therefore sealing the country's fate. Experience a glimpse of history as you cycle to Sedan in the northern part of this region, which is moreover renowned for its remarkable rides.
- Champagne Tourist Trail-This impressive tour of the various vineyards and cellars of Champagne stretches nearly 600 km and covers about 80 different stops. There are several different circuits to choose from, with differing themes, from historical tours to family friendly routes. The area is also perfect for cyclers and, of course, wine enthusiasts looking to experience some of the most exquisite vintages in the world.
- Epernay-Known internationally as the Capital of Champagne, this popular tourist location welcomes approximately 450,000 visitors a year from all over the world. Its popularity is due in part to its central location in the heart of the champagne vineyards, and the copious international market it is home to. History lovers will treasure the 19th century champagne houses found along the world famous Avenue de Champagne. The real marvel of Epernay, however, is the underground cellars located along the 100 km of tunnels which were dug out of chalk and run underground, beneath the streets of the town. That is where some say the true beauty of this area lies.

Some of our tours can be in 2 different level, we have itinerary for both versions
While most of our travelers opt for one of our pre-planned self-guided itineraries, we can modify any of our tours to suit your particular needs. We typically offer a variety of hotels to fit your budget.
You can start your tour any day that you'd like and we book the hotels after you've made your booking with your chosen arrival day. Since our tours are self-guided and are mostly catering to couples, families, and small groups of friends, the hotels are a lot easier to confirm availability and more importantly, unlike a guided tour, the trip won't get cancelled due to low participation. You can even do the cycle tour by yourself if you'd like.

Reggie Rice did it again.
The senior took over for Greenbrier on Friday night with a three touchdown performance against region rival Lakeside en route to a 25-0 Wolfpack win.
Rice scored the game's first 18 points on touchdown runs of 7, 37, and 61 yards and rushed for 214 yards on 24 carries to give the Wolfpack their second Region 2-AAAA win.
"You've got to get up for a county team," Rice said. "This is what we practice the whole year for."
Lakeside struggled early with senior Chris Drayton on the bench offensively for the entire first quarter.
In Drayton's place, senior quarterback Travis Azar took the opening snaps but completed only 3 of 12 pass attempts, including a late interception deep in Greenbrier territory.
When Drayton did enter the game on offense in the second quarter, the senior fared little better, completing none of his three pass attempts and giving up a costly fumble on his first play under center.
Greenbrier's defense rattled the Lakeside quarterback duo, with senior Erik Smith leading the way. On a single play early in the fourth quarter, Smith sacked Azar, forced the QB to fumble, then recovered the ball in Lakeside territory.
"He's the nastiest linebacker in the state of Georgia," Rice said.
The Greenbrier defense held Lake-side to only 104 yards rushing on 35 carries and 55 yards through the air.
Because of a bye week, Lakeside had two weeks to prepare for their region showdown at the Brierpatch. However, Wolfpack Head Coach Mickey Derrick's defense played like the most prepared unit on the field.
"It's unbelievable how well our scout teams prepared us for this game," Coach Derrick said. "Our scout offense and scout defense won the ball game for us."
Greenbrier did struggle on special teams throughout the game.
Wolfpack kicker Jonathan Shacker-ford's first point after touchdown attempt was blocked by Lakeside's Paul Miller.
Shackerford missed the team's second extra point attempt but found redemption after Greenbrier's Freddie Jones scored from 24 yards out late in the fourth quarter. Shackerford split the uprights on the extra point attempt to give the Wolfpack a 25-0 victory.
Greenbrier (3-2) remains atop the region standings with a 2-0 record. Lakeside (2-3) drops to 1-1 in region play.

I went to skin kitchen today and got a tattoo done. It was my 3rd.Jonny was very professional, efficient and thorough. He wasn't done till I was satisfied. My appointment had been booked for 3 hours and we ran out of time. He graciously asked me to come back later and finished my tattoo at no additional charge. It's a comfortable environment with a very experienced artist. I would recommend Jonny at Skin Kitchen to anyone!

Anchor BanCorp completes $175 million recapitalization
Madison's Anchor BanCorp Wisconsin Inc., which last month received approval for bankruptcy reorganization, said Friday it has completed a previously announced $175 million recapitalization.
Chris Bauer, president and chief executive, said the new capital from investors for Anchor BanCorp prepares the company to start making money again. Anchor BanCorp is the parent company of AnchorBank.
"We have been aggressively working for four years to get to this point, and we're proud that the recapitalization effort is now complete, positioning AnchorBank for a full return to profitability and growth," said Bauer, a former Firstar Bank executive who was hired in 2009 to revive the bank, in a statement. "Anchor BanCorp's prepackaged reorganization, from beginning to end, was completed in less than 60 days. That in itself is a testament to the strength of our plan, and overwhelming support for our return to health, which will have extremely positive impact on the Wisconsin economy."
AnchorBank's capital levels now exceed the regulatory thresholds for being considered a "well capitalized" bank, the company said.
AnchorBank has struggled since commercial real estate loans it made before the economic downturn went sour, causing millions of dollars in losses. Anchor BanCorp hasn't posted a profit in its last five fiscal years
"With the recapitalization complete, AnchorBank now has many great things on the horizon," Bauer said. "With over 700 employees and 55 offices, we can now continue this positive momentum in our local communities and around the state of Wisconsin. We look forward to being one of Wisconsin's premier financial institutions."
AnchorBank is the fourth-largest bank based in Wisconsin.
Under Anchor BanCorp's Chapter 11 bankruptcy approved Aug. 30, a group of lenders led by U.S. Bank were to cancel $183 million that Anchor owed them in exchange for $49 million in cash. In addition, the U.S. Treasury agreed to wipe out $139 million Anchor owed on its Troubled Asset Relief Program investment, or TARP, in exchange for about $6 million in new common stock to be issued and immediately sold.
The new investors in Anchor BanCorp haven't been identified. Bauer has said they consist of a "broad group" from around the United States.

Willmar Area Food Shelf begins $290,000 remodeling project
WILLMAR -- The Willmar Area Food Shelf has begun a $290,000 project designed to replace the entrance, remodel the lobby area, shopping area and rear area, and finish the exterior with added insulation and siding.
"Our plans are really just to make the food shelf more efficient,'' says Christy Kurth, food shelf executive director.
On average, the food shelf is distributing about 50,000 pounds of food a month. That means 50,000 pounds of food are coming in and 50,000 pounds are going out, said Kurth.
"Currently, any day that you come in we have about 46,000 to 48,000 pounds of food in our building. But to maintain our levels and to be able to service the clients, it's always rotating. Six years ago, we were doing probably about 20,000 to 25,000 pounds of food per month,'' said Kurth.
"So we've more than doubled almost and we just need to be more organized and efficient and that's what we're hoping to accomplish,'' she said.
The work will be done in three phases. The work is being paid with donations, grants, reserves and loans.
The first phase includes replacement of the former wooden entrance with a covered, handicapped accessible concrete entrance, and purchase and installation of a walk-in cooler-freezer. Two fairly large donations over the past two years from Jennie-O Turkey Store of Willmar will be used to buy the cooler-freezer.
"We're very thankful for Jennie-O Turkey Store for making those donations,'' said Kurth.
The cooler-freezer will replace 10 freezers that range in size from 6-foot chest freezers to 2-door commercial standup freezers to a couple of household standup freezers and two 3-door refrigerators. Kurth says the arrangement is not very efficient.
The food shelf provides milk, margarine, eggs, yogurts, cheeses and miscellaneous refrigerated items from Cash Wise, Cub and Wal-Mart.
"We're very fortunate to have great partnerships with our local grocers, so we do get a lot of that in or more than sometimes what will fit in our refrigerator when we're trying to make sure we have milk and eggs for families,'' said Kurth. "The walk-in cooler-freezer will help provide more storage.''
The second phase will remodel the lobby area, the shopping area and the rear receiving and storage area, and add new lighting, air conditioning and heating. The area includes space formerly used by the United Way's Gift-In-Kind program that has moved to Harvest Community Church.
The third phase will finish the exterior, add insulation and siding.
Kurth said the project started with the need for a walk-in cooler-freezer and grew from there.
"For any of those that have come into the food shelf whether it's donations or through a tour or volunteering, they all know how tight we are,'' said Kurth. "The layout is unorganized and it's time to really change and improve that.''
Completion is anticipated by the end of next spring or beginning of summer.
"We'll be open for business the entire time,'' said Kurth. "We ask people to be patient and work with us through the first phase. That will probably be the toughest with people coming in and out the only door.''
Kurth also reminds area gardeners that the food shelf is accepting homegrown produce.

Moody's Investors Service has cut bond ratings on $53 million of New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency bonds by one notch, to Ba1.
That's junk-bond status - off-limits for some insurance companies and other fastidious investors - from its previous low-investment-grade rating of Baa3.
Moody's also warned, in a report by a team led by analyst Dmitriy Plit, that "the rating outlook remains negative" and it might lower the rating again. The NJ HMFA bond series is 2004A.
In his report to Moody's clients, Plit blamed "a steep decline in 2013 capital funding to the Salem Housing Authority," and added that pressure on the federal housing budget "may result in further declines in capital fund appropriations."

Consumer sentiment remains gloomy, but the market may be saying it's time to cheer up. The good times could be back for a while and -- dare we say it? -- stocks could be at the start of a secular bull market.
The latest optimistic sign came from the Dow Jones Transportation Average, which hit a high last week and is up 7.3% already this year. This implies that some of the most cyclical, economically sensitive stocks -- those of airlines, railroads, and the like -- are having a banner year and don't anticipate the much-feared recession.
TECHNICALLY, THE MARKET ENTERS a bull phase only when the transports and the broader Dow Jones Industrial Average both make new highs. But the DJIA is only 4% away from its all-time record close of 14,164, hit in October 2007.
"There's a 25% possibility we're in a new secular bull market, and no one believes it," says Jeffrey Saut, chief investment strategist at Raymond James. Supporting his case: On Dec. 31 and Jan. 2, 90% of stocks traded higher. Such broad-based strength is usually followed by more strength. After two 90%-up days, the market has climbed an additional 6.8% one month later 83% of the time and 12.8% three months later 100% of the time, says Saut.
Could Washington kill the party on Wall Street by failing to agree on the debt ceiling? Absolutely. Our legislators have certainly turned a blind eye to the markets in the past. But even a correction based on Washington's folly could be short-lived. Remember, the market quickly moved past the drama surrounding the debt ceiling in 2011, which in hindsight was a great buying opportunity.
"We are pretty optimistic that the next three to five years are going to be fine," providing investors with returns in the high single digits to 10%, says Sarat Sethi, a partner at Douglas C. Lane & Associates, a money manager in New York. The economies in China and the U.S. have stabilized, and corporations, which pulled back on capital expenditures in the fourth quarter, could soon start spending again.
The market does seem to be anticipating a pickup in capital spending that benefits technology companies, as most of the shares in that sector—except, of course, Apple AAPL -1.666375850636887% Apple Inc.

Apple, which trades at just 10.3 times current fiscal year's earnings estimates, could fall 10%, to $450, if first-quarter results or second-quarter guidance are disappointing. But Turner believes it could just as easily climb to $600 as new products are introduced this year and sentiment improves, making for an attractive risk/reward scenario.

TWU response to August 9th article in The Province
Trinity Western University, having built and maintained its well-established position as a highly-ranked, nationally-respected member of the Canadian higher education community for more than 50 years, is very concerned about the known inaccuracies in today's article in the Province (Kent Spencer) and is currently reviewing its options. The article ignored up-to-date information provided by the University to Mr. Spencer and instead relied on out of context quotes that are more than four years out of date.
The University is not "financially troubled," as stated by Mr. Spencer.
In late 2008 and early 2009, the University did face some short-term fiscal challenges, as did many universities and other organizations. However, re-structuring in 2009 and 2010 placed the University in a stable financial position with a healthy outlook for the future. The University has a steady enrolment with total revenue in excess of $55,000,000 annually. TWU is required to and maintains a balanced budget. The University has a strong asset base and more than adequate cash reserves. In the last three years, the University has invested millions in capital assets and infrastructure improvements. As is typical, new construction and expansion is underwritten, in whole or part, by supporters of Trinity Western.
Mr. Spencer was given written assurances by Trinity Western that at no time had the University been in default regarding payment of any of its bills, including those to the Township of Langley.
Given the information provided by the University to Mr. Spencer, we are surprised and disappointed that the Province newspaper would not be more careful to accurately and fairly report the verified facts provided to it.

Log in
When I was eight years old, I stumbled across a book in my elementary school library that sparked a decades-long obsession for a certain period of world history and sewed the seeds for the activist I would become as an adult -- Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl.
The books in my elementary school library were sorted by grade level. Students were only allowed to check out books from their grade range. A few times per week, my class would visit the school library for an hour of quiet reading. During one of these visits, as I walked up and down the aisles, an off-white book with a black and white photo of a young girl caught my eye. I remember studying her face, her large eyes, and wondering what she was thinking about at the moment that school photo was taken. Intrigued, I plopped down on a whistle chair in a private corner and started to read.
Within minutes I was sucked into the world of this 13-year-old girl and quickly lost track of time. When my teacher informed the class it was time to check out, I panicked. I knew I would not be able to check out the book, as I was not old enough. I was desperate to finish it, so I made the drastic choice to slip the diary into my backpack. I remember sweating, being terrified as I walked out of the library, waiting for a firm hand to grab my shoulder and an angry voice to call me out as a thief. I thought about how much trouble I would be in. Despite the fear, I wasn't swayed. I HAD to finish the book.
Anne's life was drastically different from mine, but in many ways, I related to her. I too found escape through writing. I too found relief in creating other worlds I felt safe in. I identified with her feelings of isolation and desperation for a different life -- a different, kinder world. By the time I neared the end of the diary and realized she died alone at Bergen-Belsen, I was heartbroken. I felt like I had lost a friend, a confidant.
I didn't realize it at the time, but at 8 years old, I had experienced the age-old, controversial practice of book banning. Someone else deemed the material was inappropriate for someone my age. Someone else determined I was not mature enough to handle the content of the book, and demanded my school prevent students of my age access to it. This someone had no idea the impact this book would have on my life. While I absolutely do not condone stealing, I do not regret my decision.
Since Anne's father Otto Frank published the first edition of the diary in 1947, Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl remains one of the most challenged books in history. The original published diary, and the subsequent releases of the rest of Anne's writings have been under constant fire by opponents, mostly Holocaust deniers, who have questioned their authenticity.
Because of the persistent accusations against the diary in the 1960's and 70's, Otto Frank led the charge for a number of investigations. The most extensive was executed in the early 1980's by the Netherlands Forensic Institute at the request of the National Institute for War Documentation. The result was a 250-page report that irrefutably proved the authenticity of Anne's collection of work.
It is ironic that ever since her death at age 16 in 1945, Anne Frank is still being persecuted. As recently as 2013, a mother of a seventh-grade girl in the Northville school district in Michigan claimed the definitive version of Frank's diary, which includes passages left out of the original 1947 edition, is too graphic for young students. The mother felt Anne's description of her developing body was "pornographic." Fortunately, the school district rejected the challenge.
Anne Frank's diary is considered one of the most influential, historical documentations of The Holocaust, which is exactly what Ann hoped to accomplish when she rewrote her diary with the intention of publishing it when the war was over. Anne wanted to "go on living, even after her death" and she has. Hatred and ignorance extinguished her life, but despite continued oppression, her voice is louder than ever.
I am a huge fan of the award winning author and illustrator Duncan Tonatiuh. In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month I submit these two excellent picks by this author.
The Princess and the Warrior is a re-telling of one of Mexico's most cherished legends. It is the story of unlikely love between a princess and a lowly warrior. The king issues a challenge to the brave warrior: defeat their enemy Jaguar Claw. Will they end up together? Find out.
My other pick is Funny Bones: Posada and His Day of the Dead Calaveras. This is the history of the Day of the Dead Calaveras. Calaveras are those skeletons dressed as ladies called Catrinas, and other characters that you see around the time of the Day of the Dead. The library will be hosting programs for the Day of the Dead at many locations. Check our LINK.
If you're interested in a jump start on the history of the artist Jose Guadalupe Posada (1852-1913) who made the skeleton images an indelible part of these celebrations, you'll enjoy this book.
In The Upside Down Boy - El niño de cabeza, United States Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera tells the story, in verse, of a pivotal time in his childhood when his mother and father moved their family to the city so that he could attend school. He tells the story of how his third grade teacher, Mrs. Sampson, invited him to the front of the class to sing a song. He sang "Three Blind Mice" and Mrs. Sampson told him "You have a very beautiful voice". The book is dedicated to Mrs. Lucille Sampson, Herrera's third grade teacher, who, at age 95, was present at the Library of Congress when Herrera was inaugurated as the United States Poet Laureate in 2015. You can hear Herrera tell this story in front of an audience at the Kansas City Public Library on New Letters On the Air.
If you liked Rise of the Rocket Girls: The Women Who Propelled Us, From Missiles to the Moon to Mars or We Could Not Fail: The First African Americans in the Space Program, place a hold on the new book Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race. The book is already being adapted for the big screen, starring Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, and Janelle Monae.
With 446 pages printed on high-quality paper, this 2016 book is a prime example of the proverbial hefty tome, which can be perceived as a metaphor for its great content. This book is put forward as being the first one devoted to exploring Frank Lloyd Wright's designs for remaking the modern city. Contrary to most public opinion, mine included, Wright was not an architect of buildings only. Rather, he spent considerable time producing designs of what the surroundings of the buildings should look like. Filled with maps, photographs, plans, and drawings, this book is divided into three sections: 1) Suburbs in the Grid: The New Streetcar City, 2) The City in Question at the Dawn of the Automobile Age, and 3) New Visions for the City Center: Urbanism under the Hegemony of the Automobile. Anyone interested in American urban history in general or Wright's work in particular will enjoy this significant publication.
In 1980, the
Chinese Government enacted a one child policy, mandating that each family could
only have one child in hopes of curbing the rapid population growth of the
country. This controversial policy was put into place to avoid facing another
disaster like the Great Chinese Famine from 1959-1961 that killed an estimated
15 to 30 million people.
there were unintended consequences. At the beginning of this year the one child
policy was lifted, but millions of families are still have to live with the unique
challenges it caused, such as the gender imbalance caused by widespread
infanticide, and millions of unauthorized second children who live
unacknowledged by the state, unable to attend school, or even get a library
In OneChild: The Story of China's Most Radical Experiment, Mei Fong explores the
aftermath of this policy through well researched analysis, and by following
families to capture the repercussions through a more personal lens. This book
is a really fascinating, eye-opening read. I definitely recommend it.
Toni Morrison said it best: this book is required reading.
In college I'll never forget reading one of the greatest works of African American literature ever to be put on paper: Invisible Man, by Ralph Ellison. For a white person first understanding what it's like to be black in America, this was a powerful experience for me. I was finding my way into an empathetic and complex understanding of the greatest tragedies in America. I distinctly remember the end of the book (or was it the beginning?): the narrator sitting in a basement room, with many lights, and books, and jazz and whiskey, plotting his reemergence into the great white world.
Now, many books and years later, Between the World and Me reawakens me. This book had the same effect on me as Invisible Man and There Eyes Were Watching God and The New Jim Crow, probably greater. The weight of the words and sentences has a physical effect on the body, a sad truth that slowly settles and creeps in. It's personal. He makes it personal. Every single word and sentence of this little book was chosen carefully for maximum effect and truth.
Another fascinating theme of this book is its atheistic, materialistic, physical outlook on the issue of racism in America. He says it as plain and real and physical as possible, and he says it many times: racism is the destruction of the black body.
Colson Whitehead's newest novel, The Underground Railroad, was slated to be published next month. But yesterday, in a surprise announcement, Oprah Winfrey named the novel her latest book club selection and the book is actually available for purchase now.

After hearing Barry Yourgrau interviewed on NPR Weekend Edition, I was drawn to read Mess: One Man's Struggle to clean up his House and his Act. Yourgrau's girlfriend delivered an ultimatum. Basically it was: clean this place (and your life) up, or we are over! Yourgrau loves his girlfriend, and he wanted the relationship, so he had to figure out how to clean up his mess. He began to research, interviewing many people and reading quite a lot, seeking to understand why people clutter and hoard and how they overcome that issue, if/when they do. I found most of the book fascinating, though I bristled with discomfort reading the author's description of a Clutterers Anonymous meeting (p. 43.) It seemed he attended as a voyeur, an 'objective' researcher, instead of honestly owning his own issues. I found it unethical that he shared the details of that meeting in his book. Many anonymous 12-Step groups say: "What you see here, what you hear here, when you leave here, let it stay here." Yourgrau didn't give real names to any of the speakers, but he shared enough details that if one of those people should read his book, I'd think they would recognize themselves. Not cool, when you're attending an anonymous meeting! His writing displayed a condescending attitude toward the other people at the meeting. I sensed he was hiding from his feelings about himself and his own clutter by judging the other people around the table. That said, that experience appears fairly early in the book. Yourgrau's attitude toward other clutterers seemed to soften as his book progressed, as he learned more about why people clutter and hoard, and as he understood and accepted more about his own issues with said behavior. Ultimately, it was very interesting how the author shared of his personal story/experience, wove it into what he learned about cluttering and hoarding, then would weave what he learned back into his own understanding of himself. All told, I liked the book and I liked Yourgrau.It's a shame he didn't include a bibliography, because the book is packed with references.
This fictional
children's story was inspired by a real event. In Missouri in 1847 a law was
passed that prohibited the education of Blacks, slaves or free. This law was
passed by the General Assembly of the State of Missouri and it stated that: "No
person shall keep a school for the instructions of negroes or mulattoes,
reading or writing in this state."
A man named
John Berry Meachum lived from 1789-1854. He had been born a slave and worked to
earn enough money to buy his freedom. In 1826 he became a minister of the first
African American Baptist Church in Missouri. Although, educating blacks was
against the law it was very important to Meachem. Being a very resourceful and
creative person he worked to find ways to defy the unjust law that stated black
people could not be educated within the state. He built a steamboat and used it
in the middle of the Mississippi River as a school for Blacks.
That's where
the idea for this great story, Steamboat School by Deborah Hopkinson, came

Erie man dies after I-79 rollover crash
An Erie man died early this morning after a one-car crash on Interstate 79 near the West 26th Street exit.
Erie County Deputy Coroner Dennis Suscheck identified the man today as Tyler G. Hodson, 32, of Erie. State police in Girard said Hodson was headed north on Interstate 79 within the city limits shortly before 1 a.m. today when he started to drive off the west side of the highway.
Police said Hodson overly corrected, and his vehicle -- a 1997 Ford F-250 -- slid into a median near the West 26th Street onramp, a sign post and then an embankment before rolling over and trapping Hodson.
Hodson was transported to UPMC Hamot and was pronounced dead shortly after arriving there.
Police said they are still investigating the cause of the accident.

Tried a few different pots/pans from WM, but this is really the best item as it lives up to expectation (in this case, solid non-stick pan). Have had mine for a year and half now and it's still as non-stick as the day I purchased. You do have to handwash, but I'm a minimalist so I'm usually washing larger pots/pans by hand anyway and reserve smaller dishware for dishwasher.

My husband came down with a massive infection following his knee surgery. Dr Salvagno did not take it seriously. My husband ended up at Hopkins where they saved his life. He would have died had he stayed at Hagerstown. There are better orthopedic surgeons out there whose surgeries do not result in serious infections.
Have been using this practice for many years. The staff and front office is very friendly and the biggest thing is that the provider listens and understands the problem. I have recommended this practice to all family,friends, and anyone that needs help. Thank you for your services.
Cindy was especially kind and helpful. I trust God will guide Dr. Salvagno to do what is best for me. Peace of mind is priceless.
I feel very comfortable making a "life changing" decision.
Always provide professional,caring and quality care. Have recommended to many people. Very pleased.
I have complete faith in Dr. S and this facility.
Dr Salvagno did a knee replacement on my husband. My husband almost died due to infection. The prosthesis is rotated showing that Dr Salvagno did a sloppy job. My advice is to beware and do research before agreeing to surgery with Dr Salvagno at Meritus.
very frustrating because I work hard and we are barely making ends meet and my daughter needs to see an orthopedic surgeon for her ankle and no one will see her without $150 or more up front since we cannot afford insurance. Doctors are supposed to care about the public not be in it for what they can get out of the public
i have a appointment with doctor SALVAGNO today . when he came to hagerstown and partnered with dr. cirincion i was one of his first patiants . he and dr C gave me new knees .. at the day i was to be released from the hospital dr, S came in to check me out . i called him DR.. SALVAGNO but he advised me to call him RALPH witch i did ... about 15 years later i had both my knees replaced again by RALPH .. i cant say anything bad about this group and espially the care at the hospital on RALPHS floor .. when i see him today i will again call him DR. RALPH Y TO BE SAFE .. i have recommended this practice to everyone i know who is going to have this type surgery . i would see none other ...
Dr. Salvagno replaced my hip 2 yrs ago and my knee a year ago. I am so glad my neighbor referred me to him. She also had a hip replacement by Dr. Salvagno. I am completely happy with both of my surgeries. His office staff, the hospital staff, and Dr. Salvagno could not have given me any better medical attention.Because of them I got my life back and can walk any and everywhere now. Unless you have had this surgery yourself you will never know the pain I have had or how grateful I will always be to Dr. Salvagno. Thank You.
I had my right knee replaced in 2011. I was way ahead of schedule in my recovery due to his expertise and the expertise of his thearpists. Headed for left knee this year and would consider no other area surgeon.
After eleven knee surgeries by an array of different doctors I was referred to Dr. Salvagno. He found problems five other doctors overlooked, When there was a problem in scheduling a pre surgical appointment Dr. Salvagno PERSONALLY called me in the early morning to handle the issue himself. It could just as easly been thrown off to clerical staff, but the doctor took time from his schedule to call me at home and deal with the matter directly. While I have not yet had the surgery, I am very secure knowing that I have a surgeon who will go the extra mile to make his patients feel safe and secure. In these day's of email and computer driven communications it is wonderful to pick up a phone and hear your doctors voice on the line, not a nurse, not a front desk clerk, but your doctor directly. Bravo DR. Salvagno
It's true Dr. Salvagno is not much of a talker. However, he will answer any question you may have in a respectful and courteous manner spending the time necessary to put your mind at ease. He's not a coddler but he sure knows his joints! If I want conversation, I'll call a buddy but I wouldn't trust anyone else with my knees!
Developed infection from poor surgical conditions and procedures. Put revision in without confirming that infection was completely cleared. Very poor Standard of Care.

Can't work out how to quote the picture, but those little marbles you find around sandstone are concretions. Adorable!
Thanks for coming along, Terry.
I've got a couple more days worth coming. Thanks!
The aspens are my favorite as well. We've got them here in Arizona as well, but I was also searching more twisties. The combinations of fun roads and aspens of Colorado made it a wonderful trip. I've been to the Ozarks plenty, but have never ridden there... yet. Thanks!
Thanks for the info. I found this quote from the Wiki article the most helpful.
The photo you were referring to.
I should have known the Navajo Sandstone is sedimentary rock from the old sea bed. My initial thought of the small round balls were that they were similar to the volcanic hailstones that are found in places such as the Chiricahua Mountains of Southeastern Arizona. Since these were not very far from the volcanic areas of Northern Arizona I thought they must be volcanic. Thanks for finding the real explanation of these things.
Thanks brother! I am pretty lucky, huh? I didn't move to the Southwest until I was an adult, so these landscapes are still the stuff of childhood dreams.
Grand Junction, huh? That would be a sweet place to live. I passed through there this summer. Check this out just outside of town...
Thanks, Buddy!
I'm using 3 cameras and 6 lenses. The look of my photos has more to do with the post-processing than the camera used. I am using an old Panasonic ZS5 point-n-shoot for shots on the move. The second camera is an Olympus EPL-1 micro-four-thirds with a 17mm Pancake lens. I am trying this camera out hoping to replace the point-n-shoot with it, but used it for a lot of the off-bike photos as well. My DSLR is a Pentax K-5 with the primary lens being a Pentax DA*16-50. I also used a 55-300mm zoom lens, an 8mm fisheye lens, and a 90mm macro lens. The photos in this report are a pretty equal mix from all 3 cameras.
Thanks for the commpliments, Dieselpwr!
The Day 2 Map
The light was fading as I topped out on McClure Pass and headed down the other side. I saw some dispersed camping opportunities near the summit, but I wanted to get to lower elevations. It is gonna be cold tonight. 30s is better than 20s. Once down in the canyon and following the river there were all of these signs forbidding camping anywhere except the campgrounds. I found only one campground open. It was getting close to dark when I pulled in resigned to just pay for a campsite, even though I only needed it for a few hours.
Now I HATE running around after dark looking for a campsite, but there is no way I'm paying $36 to sleep on the ground. I can afford it, but on principle-no way! So I continue on my way. Soon I pass through Carbondale. I could just get a motel room, but I'd rather not waste the money for just a few hours of sleep. I'm hoping to get to the Maroon Bells for sunrise. The closer I get to Aspen the less optomistic for finding a place to hide and sleep I become.
I turn off the highway down a couple different roads with no suitable spot found. Finally I turn off some paved road along a river. There were several pullouts along the river bank. I chose one that seemed reasonably secluded and pulled as far off the road as possible. I had no idea where I really was, but I decide to just sleep on the ground next to the bike, without the tent. I wanted an early start in the morning and I wasn't sure if I was breaking any laws "camping" here.
About 10 minutes after laying down, here comes the law. A local sheriff deputy stops to check me out. I didn't mind so much, because she was plenty cute. She didn't think I was breaking any laws, so I insisted I was just going to sleep right here.
And I did... lightly. There was way to much traffic. Looking at the map later I found I was just outside of Basalt. After about 5 hours of restless sleep, I jump up to face the cold ride to the Maroon Bells.
Day 3 Map
BTW, I edited the full route map. There were errors in the first one I posted.
The Maroon Bells are considered one of the most photographed sites in Colorado, especially in fall.
I knew I was probably about one week late for peak color, but I was optomistic it might still be colorful.
It was about 35 degrees when I started riding, but by time I reached the parking lot near Maroon Lake
it was 27 degrees. It was a little chilly, but I was excited as this was by main objective of this trip.
Even in the dark, I could tell I was riding through spectacular scenery. It was still dark when
I reached the parking lot, but while hiking to the lake I was able to put away the flashlight.
Most of the aspens had been stripped by the winds.
I was struck by the fact these mountains appear much smaller in photographs.
While standing in their shadows, they tower over you.
I ate my cereal bar and watched the light slowly change.
Finally, the sun reaches the Maroon Bells.
Let's go check out Indepedence Pass.
All I have is WOW!
Very nice mixture of black and white and color, HDR and standard photos. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Oh my word, I just don't know quite what to say Dave those are fantastic photos,
Wow! I've lived in Colorado my whole life and have ridden all of the Colorado roads you covered. Your photos do a fantastic job of displaying just what a pretty area this is! Great photography and a very nice, concise report style. Well done!
SO SO SO Great!!! As always.
I also enjoy your brevity with words. Being dyslexic, I often tire quickly reading too much. It certainly makes images more important to me, THANKS>
These are amazing pictures! Very nice road trip too.
This is very inspiring!
I've ridden, hunted and fished all the country you are photographing ever since I lived in Colorado Springs back in the early 70's. As I now sit in Northern Arizona, in the butt ugly mohave desert, I can't begin to tell you how much I have enjoyed your trip. I'm heading for Elk camp next week but by the time I get to the Stone Cellar Guard station cabin, southeast of Gunnison, the color will mostly be gone....still a great place to be but the color sure makes a big difference.
At my advanced state of decay I probably only have 15 or 20 years of fall riding left, you can bet that I will not miss another fall ride in my beloved Colorado mountains. Your pictures have inspired me to get off my A$$ and get out on the bike for the best riding time and place of the year, fall in Colorado.
Thanks for a great ride report,
I rolled through the ritzy town of Aspen without stopping and headed up Independence Pass.
Most of the aspens up here are stripped naked.
I found that each of the passes ridden on this trip have completely different personalities or feelings.
Independence Pass seemed to change character around every bend.
The Aprilia was definitely in her element. The big V-twin had no problem powering me up, up, up...
We got high. 12,095 feet up. I was happy the road was clear this late in the season. Denver had already seen a few inches of snow a couple days ago.
Down the other side. Oh Man! I'm having fun now!
The road does a 180 down in this little valley...
...and heads back in this direction...
...like this.
All to quickly I am in Twin Lakes looking back to where I've just ridden.
That's enough. Thanks!
Thanks! I do like to mix it up.
Thanks again.
I like your reports Dave as I get a new background for my computer with every trip report. Thanks for the great reports!
Truly stunning pictures Dave.

Brangelina, Shiloh, and Fair Use
It looks like Gawker has found itself on the receiving end of legal bluster for publishing this thumbnail image of Brad and Angelina's baby, Shiloh.
This is yet another example of lawyers invoking copyright as a pretext for censorship. Gawker posted the thumbnail-sized image as part of its coverage of the news that an all-night bidding war drove the price of these photos into the stratosphere, with Time Warner paying $4.1m (nabbing the rights for People magazine) for exclusive U.S. rights. It seems reasonable that the story would include a thumbnail so that people know what the fuss was about.
If this isn't a fair use, it's hard to see what would be. Let's look at the four fair use factors. First, the use is for news reporting, an activity explicitly recognized as deserving of fair use protection in Section 107 of the Copyright Act. On the second factor, the nature of the work, while there is certainly creativity in the photograph, it is principally a factual subject -- Brad and Angelina's baby. The third factor -- how much of the original was taken -- also ought to favor Gawker. After all, they only took a 160 pixel thumbnail of the original. (It's not clear to me whether these photos are still "unpublished," but the Supreme Court in Harper & Rowe v. The Nation made it clear that the unpublished nature of a work does not preclude a fair use finding.)
Finally, as to the impact on the market for the original, it's hard to see how the reproduction of a low-resolution thumbnail significantly undermines the market for the original. The magazines locked in an auction war were presumably bidding for the right to reproduce the photos in their magazines in all their glossy glory. In other words, they weren't paying $4m for thumbnail rights. Moreover, their bids presumably already reflected a discount for fair uses that they were not legally entitled to prevent. (In fact Alison Crombie, spokeswoman Getty Images, which has exclusive distribution rights to the photos, said: "But I really don't think it will devalue the pictures as everyone is dying to see the full set.")
Finally, looking beyond the four statutory fair use factors, it seems apparent that the public interest in news reporting should tip the scales in favor of Gawker (and other journalists, scholars, educators, and commentators). This birth, after all, will be greeted in some circles as the biggest celebrity news story of the year.
Now we'll see if Time Warner continues its overreaching by sending DMCA notices to the ISP that hosts the Gawker website. That's a favorite abusive tactic of copyright owners -- rather than having a fight over fair use, they just send DMCA takedown notices to upstream providers, in hopes of winning by intimidation what they might lose in court.

a place to dream and be in a nonrealistic situation
I'm drifting off to wonderland
Beküldő: Alice <3 2005. április 20.
Trending Now
Can you define these popular missing words?
A beautiful place that can only be visited through drugs (weed does not count). Everything you see is bright and vivid, and more euphoric than any sober person could ever imagine. Black and white are non-existant in wonderland, because they contrast all the other colors. When you are in wonderland you are not aware of it, you're too distracted by the amazing things you're seeing to even realize you're in a different world. You cannot comprehend so much as the idea of "reality". Wonderland can only be seen on drugs because the human mind is not capable of experiencing such an incredible place without assistance. It's one of the many reasons you actually should use drugs.
Last night I was in wonderland and I saw a zebra with all different color stripes.

Growth hormone supplement and human growth hormone (hGH) use has returned with a vengeance among today's professional bodybuilders. One of the most anabolic hormones around, GH, or somatotropin, is a peptide hormone (a group of 191 amino acids linked together in a specific sequence released by the anterior pituitary gland throughout the day in pulses). Its anabolic/anti-catabolic effects include increased nitrogen retention, enhanced protein synthesis, and reduced protein catabolism. GH can even promote fat loss through lipolysis and by shifting energy production through fat utilization. Bottom line: GH can alter body composition by increasing lean mass and reducing bodyfat. GH Max helps you get the most out of GH with its select blend of GH secretatogues, vitamins, plant sterols, boron and other nutrients. And only GH Max provides the pharmacologically-proven 2:1 ratio of arginine to ornithine.

Remington 700 VLS vs. CZ 550 Varmint

> Remington 700 VLS vs. CZ 550 Varmint
January 21, 2007, 07:00 PM
How do both of these guns (in .308) compare in terms of accuracy, reliability, etc. for long-range shooting?
Anyone have either? Reviews?

I bought my VLS in .223 after seeing a VLS .308 at the range. The groups were very, very good - about .5 MOA.
Which was exactly what I discovered when I shot mine right out of the box. The .223 version is beautifully made. The laminate stock is quite heavy, extremely solid, and results in recoil more like .22LR than .223. Jeweled bolt is very slick and solid. It's a fantastic rifle, and I'd buy another in a second if the budget allowed it.
That said, my experience with CZ products has also been very positive. You have a tough choice ahead, but one where you basically can't lose.
January 21, 2007, 07:52 PM
I have heard that the Remington VS and VLS in 308 had excessive throats, to the point where you could not seat the bullet into the lands and still have it fit in the magazine. This is info from about 6 years ago, Remington may have corrected it by now.
I'm very happy with my Remington 223 VS and my 25/06 and 7mm Sendero. The 7mm with 162 Grain AMax bullets shoot groups at 1000 yards that is unreal.
January 21, 2007, 08:09 PM
I'd go for the cz it's got a set trigger. I've never shot a cz rifle that wasn't more accurate than i am.
January 21, 2007, 08:13 PM
Both rifles are very accurate pieces, I own the CZ 22-250 varmint laminate. Given the somewhat lower price and the single set trigger feature of the CZ I would choose the CZ hands down.
January 22, 2007, 02:27 PM
Anyone else?
January 22, 2007, 03:05 PM
I have heard that the Remington VS and VLS in 308 had excessive throats, to the point where you could not seat the bullet into the lands and still have it fit in the magazine.
That is affirmative - nowhere's NEAR the lands.
This is info from about 6 years ago, Remington may have corrected it by now.
Remington: Problem, what problem?:rolleyes:
Simple Man
January 22, 2007, 05:44 PM
CZ all the way dude!!! get them now before the price sky rockets on the CZ's.
January 22, 2007, 05:46 PM
Both rifles are great, but I just have to vote for the CZ - how can you argue with this:
January 22, 2007, 07:04 PM
My VLS was put into a Choate stock and had a Shilen 2lb trigger....and shot 168 SMK's under .5MOA with ease. From the magazine with NO worries about how far from the lands they were.
January 22, 2007, 08:20 PM
I have an older VLS in .308 and have no problems. I shoot 1/2 MOA consistantly. CZ does make a good rifle as well. GO WITH WHAT FEELS BETTER WHEN YOU HOLD THEM. You can not go wrong with either choice.
January 22, 2007, 08:50 PM
^^ Right. As for looks, I have to say I like the CZ better (mmmmm... Turkish walnuttttttt), although I like the laminated stock (I hate these types of rifles in all black).
I haven't held the 550 yet, but the Remington felt very comfortable, and has a nice bolt. I have held the 452 Varmint (if they're similar at all) and that was VERY nice.
Ahhh.. decisions decisions....
Oh well, at least I have until August to decide.
January 22, 2007, 09:03 PM
I am no sniper expert, but i have fired many diff types of rifles. Right now, my two favorite, and best , are both cz. one in 762.39 and one in 223.Now both are moa capable. but that is really an understatement, to wit;
As you can see, these are truly one hole groups capable, with at least two diff brands of factory ammo, not handloads. The black hills group, if you look close, has pen ink mark scratched above it, I was gonna right in windspeed but decided not to.
Now the remmy is very good, I used to have a sporter with a 788 action in 30.06 that was moa capable, but it was not this good, and once you fire the set trigger, and have it adjusted down to thought- fire, you will never look back.

Major disappointment from Logitech 01/30/2014
This review is from: Logitech G930 USB Connector Circumaural Wireless Gaming Headset
It's wireless?
Connectivity can be sketchy, even when you're 3-4' away.
Too small for an average sized head; faux-leather feels terrible. It is truly difficult to wear these for more than 15-20 minutes.
Other Thoughts:
Normally, I stick to Logitech accessories, but this one left a bad taste in my mouth.
