September 2016
Good trip and the ruins were fabulous.
May 2016
I highly recommend this tour, truly excellent and I was traveling alone. Once I booked, I received an email confirmation. The Driver-Omar was prompt and knowledgeable and I felt safe. The tour at Petra was excellent and the tour guide-Shoyab explained everything in detail. My experience was priceless!
March 2016
Really nice driver. Awesome place to visit.
November 2015
Really great tour. We spent the whole day in Petra and had a fantastic tour guide who told us a lot of history and information about local plants and was just an overall friendly guy to spend a day with. We declined the donkey ride at the beginning and the walk was not very far, so we felt like we made the right choice. We weren't able to pack a lunch, so had lunch at the Crowne Plaza restaurant in Petra not the cheapest option, but it was a buffet, so it was good value. We took an additional hike up one of the cliffs to see the view from above. It cost a bit extra, but was very much worth it.
The pick up and drop off was incredibly helpful and very flexible. We actually flew right into Amman, got picked up at the airport at 3am, drove straight to Petra and on the return, got dropped off at our hotel on the Dead Sea. The non-Amman pick up and drop off did cost extra, but not as much as hiring separate transport would have and the driver was fantastic driving so far at odd hours with us sleeping half the time.
Overall, with all the additional charges, it was not cheap, but considering this was the main highlight of our holiday and we had an incredible time there and everything went smoothly and easily, it was well worth it.
August 2015
My very friendly driver picked me up at the hotel in Amman and drove the 3 hours to Wadi Musa/Petra. He organised my entry ticket and a guide and after I'd finished walking to Petra city and back, he was there to drive me back to Amman. All in all a very nice day where I didnt have to think about a thing.
February 2015
Excellent trip . From been picked up early by my driver ,who was very polite and good driver . We arrived at petra .i was taken back from start to finish . The little shop there is a little expensive . Its very dusty and old shoes are a must , good walking boots . The beduins love to show you there home land . I will go back if only to see the rest . The high light of my trip was to meet and get my book signed by Margaret who wrote married to a beduin .amazing lady ,amazing story . Its a must for everyone to see the fabulous country and especially Petra . I will be back for sure

This tour was amazing. Everybody should have seen it. Unbelievable beautiful and huge. We spend almost 5 hours there, because we wanted to see all, even the biggest building "The Monastery" 800 steps up and back down. Unforgettable experience.
October 2014
Excellent tour! The local guide was excellent, and very knowledgeable. A must when in Jordan!
August 2014
This tour was amazing!
August 2014
To start we had a great guide/driver who picked us up from the air port and drove us around to take care of some business matters before heading to the hotel , Kempinski, with out any fuss, by the way what a great hotel.
The tour to Petra from the Dead Sea took about 3 hours by road with a couple of breaks on the way.
Once there be ready for a bit of walking and it can be hot and dusty but what a place and worth the time, about 4 hours. The guide once there is not your driver but a local guide, good but they really don't know much about the place and ditch you at the end to make your own way back which is pretty easy.
Look out for the guys who will take you back to the entrance once you finished by horse and cart, they should only charge $20 per couple, they try and charge each.
The return trip, another 3 hours by a different route, gave us the chance to see more of the country
Be ready to tip every one as part of the deal here but what a great place.

Well me and my fiance started our ttc journey 7 months ago. last month we started using clomid days 3 to 7 of my cycle. Last month we had no luck so this month they upped my dose another 50mg. They started me at 100 mg. I am hoping that this month will be our month. My sister is pregnant and she wasn't even trying. I just feel like I am hopeless because I watch a lot of women get pregnant I just don't want to feel alone.

Welcome to the board. Have you had an HSG to make sure your tubes aren't blocked? How about your fiance having a sperm analysis to make sure his swimmers are good? If it doesn't work this week, I would ask the doctor to send you for these tests so you know what you are working with. Also you might want to see an RE b/c the specialize in infertility. Good luck
Thu, 07/19/2012 - 20:39#3
Hello! I'm on my 2nd cycle of clomid. BFN but I still have hope for the next cycle.
Are they monitoring your cycles to see when you are ovulating?

Mice are active, alert animals. When healthy, their eyes and noses are free of discharge, their coats are sleek and shiny, and their droppings are firm and elongated.
Unhealthy mice may have a dull coat, eye or nasal discharge or diarrhea. They can also be lethargic, aggressive or sleep almost constantly.
If you see any of these signs in your mouse, take it to a small mammal exotics veterinarian immediately.

Toshiba recommends Windows.

InterVideo WinDVD BD for Toshiba pre-installed on Satellite P505-S8980 won't play blu-ray discs. Says that Blu-ray player needs an update, but I can't find any type of update, except to buy a newer version. Any ideas?
My blu ray says " your current configuration does not support protected content playback" I have an hdmi cable from the laptop to hdmi on a 2010 Samsung LCD. What more do I need? Oh, and good luck finding anyone at Toshiba to help.
i spoke to a level 1 tech who could not help. I spoke with a level 2 tech who could not help. 2 days later I got a call from a level 3 tech. Fortunately, during that 2 day wait, I found the answer on the internet. The level 3 tech gave me the wrong answer. I told him I would give him the correct answer if he would post it to the Toshiba database so all could get the answer. He said he would. Apparently he did not. Try this link:
it solved the problem for me. You must set the laptop to display only to the tv before paying the disk.
02-08-2010 12:31 PM - edited 02-08-2010 12:49 PM
The Win DVD BD that was preloaded on my Laptop would lockup and wouldnt allow me to use it until I upgraded.
I recommend you uninstall the original Win DVD BD version you have and any trial editions you may have downloaded and follow what I have listed below to fix your problem.
This is only a recommendation. Uninstall and install software at your own risk. If this fix doesn't work for you then you will have to call Toshiba and request a disc to reinstall your original software you uninstalled.
Use my model #A505-6014 to find the Win DVD BD software you need.
Go to Support.toshiba.com > Download > then choose your category (Laptop) then your Family (Satellite) then my model #(A505-6014). Or you can just enter S6014 in the search box and it should bring up a list of all Laptop models with S6014 in them. Choose the A505-S6014 and click Go.
Now from the two drop down lists choose which Operating system: (Windows 7 64 bit) should be what you have, then choose Blu-Ray in the 2nd drop down list.
You should now see this listed:
WinDVD BD for Toshiba for Windows 7 (32/64)(v8.0; 11-05-2009; 176.1M)
Download and SAVE this file to your desktop or My Downloads folder so you do not have to search for it again after you reboot if need be.
Reboot after installation.
After OS is completely loaded again, insert a Blu-Ray disc and hopefully it should automatically play.
On my Laptop they recommended updating the Intel Management Engine Interface driver but your model does not show this listed as a driver that can be updated. So warning, don't update it per the instructions listed on the Win DVD BD download list from the A505-S6014 downloads. It may cause issues if its not for your laptop.
Also, When playing Blu-Ray's I turn my power management to Performance.
Let us know if this fixes things for you.
Good luck!
Thank you hailofaguy. Your solution worked for me on my P505-S8980. I did not update the Intel Management Engine only the WinDVD program.
I agree with you ! Called toshiba and was told to go to acclaimtoshjba.com ..yeah right , from there all I got was ads for tech help companies !!! They are of no help at all !! I am so disgusted with toshiba . I got Blu-ray BDX2150 for christmas . Never would connect to internet and the movies play when ever they decide they want too . What a waste of money . Didn't keep receipt cause toshiba is suppose to be a top company . Boy was I a fool.

Ask Seattle Mariner Alex Rodriguez what he covets most, and it is not All-Star status (he has had it twice) or a Most Valuable Player Award (he was a 1996 finalist). "A major league baseball player is no longer solely identified by hitting home runs," says the 22-year-old shortstop. "You have to speak well, behave well and dress well." The closets in his rented Seattle condo bulge with 60 suits, 65 pairs of dress shoes, 100 shirts and 250 ties. "You can take my cars or my house," he says, "but don't mess with my clothes."
Yet no matter how nattily clad this youngest child of Dominican immigrants may be, it's the buff body underneath that caused a Seattle Times reporter to lose linguistic control. His physique, she opined, is "as lovely as the glow of Mount Rainier during a summer sunset." To keep that mountain sheen, Rodriguez lifts weights at the team clubhouse six days a week and pampers himself like a matinee idol. He washes his face with Clinique soap, gets his hair cut every 10 days and indulges in a monthly manicure and pedicure. And nothing stands between Rodriguez and his four-times-daily flossing: "I'm big into teeth."
The fans are appreciative. "Everywhere we go, women go nuts," says Mariners catcher John Marzano of his pal, who last year tallied more than 20,000 adoring letters. Right now, Rodriguez says, he's too busy to date, but for those hoping to get on his roster, he cautions, "I can't be with a girl who is taller than me." Not that many need worry: Rodriguez is 6'3".

Cormier vs Cain..... Who would win.
I know this fight won't happen, but if it did who would win. Ime a fan of both and last night Cormier impressed me big time. I think people forget Cormiers strength is wrestling, yet he managed to dominate frank Mir with some of the best clinch work I've seen in a long time without even using it. It's a close call for me but I'd pick Cormier.
I'd say Cain mainly because Cormier seems like he wouldn't be able to truly get into a fight against a friend while Cain is a pure fighter through and through.
But if it was a scenario where they weren't friends then it would be a coin toss.
The best cormier beats the best cain meaning the mos tin shape of both fighters who fight to their strengths daniel would come out since he is the better wrestler and has more power.
Just based on first impression, I think Cormier is a bit stronger and has better wrestling than Cain. Cain's a tad bigger, and while Cormiers hands look faster, I like Cains boxing a little bit more. Other than that, they are pretty identical. That would be a pretty good match-up. It's a shame they train in the same camp.
I can't decide so I think they should fight so we can all find out. Screw friendship.
If Cormier can handle the pace Cain will try to set, I think he can pull it off.
Well , for the moment its Cain for sure ... but with time we'll see... Cain really its at another level from every HW right now if he keeps this fire and paste that he's fighting ...
The fight I would love to see is , Cain vs Werdum
I don't think Werdum offers much for Cain if Cain fights smart. Cain should have no problem doing the same thing Cormier did to Mir last night. Except Cain with do it at a much higher pace and Werdum will probably start gassing and Cain will go in for the kill.
Based on what I saw last night... Cain would win.
The 3rd round told me a lot, Cormier faded, and Cain only starts to fade towards the end of the 5th. Speed kills in this fight, Cormier would gas in round 2 trying to keep up with Cain.
And this is from a guy that picked against Cain in his last 4 fights.

'Even to this day the diary has a slight aroma of cocoa,' says Steve Dickinson about a diary kept by his uncle Robert Dickinson while a prisoner at Servigliano, an Italian war camp, in the 1940s. The diary has a cover made of old cocoa tins (hence the smell) with a broadcast aerial design incorporating the title 'Servigliano Calling.' It begins with his capture by the Germans in November 1941, and finishes, about six months before his death, in September 1944. Via The Diary Junction blog.

Vt Law School lays off two, buys out 10
SOUTH ROYALTON The Vermont Law School has reduced its workforce by 12 people, laying off two and buying out 10 other workers.
Law school spokeswoman Carol Westberg said none of the workers were faculty members.
Westberg said the buyouts were offered to staff in November, with a deadline of Jan. 3 to accept.
The 10 who took buyouts from the South Royalton school have negotiated with the school when they will leave. The two laid-off workers have already left.
President Marc Mihaly told the Valley News that those who took the buyouts received severance packages based on the length of time they had worked at the school.
The downsizing was needed because the school has received fewer applications from potential students over the past three years.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Grace Phelps scored twice, while Victoria Gates, Ally Brink and Alaura Rich also...

Chicago, Illinois is a cosmopolitan paradise. Situated on the western shores of Lake Michigan in northeastern Illinois, the city is not only a vital international center for business, but also a mecca for tourism. As the country's third largest city, Chicago boasts a diverse economy of manufacturing and finance, balanced nicely with world-renowned theater productions, shopping, dining, museums, architecture, and live music.
Living in Chicago also means you don't need a car to enjoy everything the metropolis has to offer. Chicago Transit Authority's El, bus, or train will take you to nearly every corner of the city! Though you may arrive a tad late, you'll get there without spending a dime on gas or parking. With your extra cash, you can indulge in one of Chicago's many mouth-watering restaurants, attend a Chicago Cubs or White Sox game, or visit the Lake Michigan waterfront.
When compared to cities like New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, the cost of living in Chicago is pretty favorable. Apartment rental rates in Chicago average $1,958 per month (July 2016). A one bedroom apartment in Chicago typically rents for about $1,750 per month, with a two bedroom unit renting for approximately $2,317. Like most big cities, Downtown remains one of the most expensive areas for renters, along with Near North Side, Near West Side, and Loop. The cheapest areas to rent an apartment are South Shore, Avalon Park, and Chatham.
If you're new to the area, there's one thing that will definitely surprise you about Chicago, and it's not the size of the deep dish pizzas. We're talking about the weather. Chicago winters are brutal, lasting from October through April and often include truckloads of snow. In the summer, the heat can be equally as harsh.
Before packing your boxes for Chicago, you'll want to invest in a high quality umbrella with wind vents and a warm winter coat. You're going to need both! Chicago was nicknamed "The Windy City" for a reason. Then, find your next home sweet home in Chicago, the gem of the Midwest!

Claire Manaloto, Center Director
Toddlers are explorers on the road to learning. They walk all over, eat table food and often take just one nap a day. In a safe and nurturing environment, your little adventurer will find his voice, make new friends and develop confidence in newfound abilities.
Let us help your 2-year-old develop her independence and confidence in a setting that encourages a sense of community. We plan your child's activities based on a program grounded in early childhood fundamentals. Your young learner will increase her language ability, practice early counting skills and learn to cooperate with friends through group activities.
Preschool kids are in the process of becoming confident learners. We take their confidence to the next level with hands-on education. Your 3- to 4-year-old child is ready for structured learning activities that touch on early literacy, math, science and social studies. Our program balances these subjects with opportunities for independent exploration – and a healthy dose of running, jumping and dancing.

Watch: Milla Jovovich says she isn't really a bad girl in 'Three Musketeers'
HitFix's Gregory Ellwood recently sat down with "Three Musketeers" star Milla Jovovich to talk about the upcoming big-screen reinterpretation of the classic novel, in which the actress plays the villainous, two-faced "Milady de Winter". During their chat the spirited Jovovich rose up to defend the 17th century bad girl, who she described as a "modern woman" stuck in the 17th century. She also spoke of her decision to have the character do battle in a variety of fabulous "30 pound" gowns (complete with corsets!), which she admitted may not have been the best idea in hindsight.
The next installment of the "Resident Evil" franchise was also broached, with Jovovich giving props to her director (and husband) Paul W.S. Anderson (who also helmed "Musketeers") for putting together an "amazing" action sequence involving a Rolls Royce. The two are currently shooting the film, subtitled "Retribution", in Toronto.
Watch the full interview above!
"The Three Musketeers" hits theaters this Friday.

Glassport, Pennsylvania
Glassport is a borough in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States, approximately 10 miles (16 km) south of Pittsburgh and the confluence of the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers where they form the Ohio River. Glassport lies along the east side of the Monongahela River in the "Mon valley", where many blue-collar municipalities have suffered severe economic decline in the wake of the loss of steel-making throughout the Greater Pittsburgh area. In 1910, the population of Glassport was 5,540. By 1940, it had risen to 8,748, but has since declined to 4,483 as of the 2010 census.[1]
The mayor of Glassport is Rosemary Bradley. Mayor Bradley's term in office began in 2014.[2]
Glassport is located at 40°19′37″N 79°53′19″W / 40.326919°N 79.888693°WCoordinates: 40°19′37″N 79°53′19″W / 40.326919°N 79.888693°W.[3]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough has a total area of 1.9 square miles (4.9 km2), of which 1.7 square miles (4.4 km2) is land and 0.2 square miles (0.52 km2), or 11.05%, is water.
Emergency Services[edit]
Glassport Police Dept. is based at 440, Monongahela Ave., Glassport. It has 10 part-time Officers, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Deputy Chief and Chief (Clifford Lafever)
Glassport Crime Watch[edit]
GPCW is a group of Glassport residents who report crimes to GPD
Citizen's Hose Co. #1 is based at 532 Allegheny Ave.
Before Glassport was its own borough, the territory was part of Elizabeth Twp., then of Lincoln Twp., then Port Vue, PA. In 1902, it became its own separate municipality, comprising 1.52 square miles.
The town was built around a mill called The United States Glass Co., that chose that site in 1894. The factory came to be known as "the Glass House". Other industries soon followed. The area was originally laid out in a plot plan by the Glassport Land Co., a subsidiary of the United States Glass Co.
Glassport received its name after the Glassport Land Company.
The United States Glass Company was located near the Monongahela River on Seventh Street. The company specialized in "pressed glass," tableware, and other glass products made from molds. Unfortunately, in 1963 the United States Glass Company was damaged by a tornado, and their 80-foot water tower collapsed through the building's roof. When the high winds did this, all the furnaces shut down and the liquid glass cooled and hardened. Afterwards there was left a 250-ton block of solid glass, making any plans to re-build too costly.
Former pro football player George Hays (American football) was born in Glassport. Jesse James of the Pittsburgh Steelers also from Glassport.

this video is of the Mallard which is housed at the National Railway Musuem in York. LNER Class A4 4468 Mallard From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Number 4468 Mallard is a London and North Eastern Railway Class A4 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotive built at Doncaster, England in 1938. Mallard was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley as an express locomotive specially built to power high-speed streamlined trains. Its wind-tunnel-tested, aerodynamic body allowed it to reach speeds of over 100 mph (160 km/h). Mallard was in service until 1963, when it was retired, having covered almost one and a half million miles (2.4 million km). It was restored to working order in the 1980s, but has not operated since, apart from hauling some specials between York and Scarborough in July 1986 and a couple of runs between York and Harrogate/Leeds around Easter 1987. Mallard is now part of the National Collection at the United Kingdom's National Railway Museum in York. On the weekend of 5 July 2008, Mallard was taken outside for the first time in years and displayed alongside her A4 sisters, thus reuniting all four A4s extant in the UK for the first time since preservation. The locomotive is 70 ft long and weighs 165 tons, including the tender. It is painted LNER garter blue with red wheels and steel rims. Mallard is the holder of the world speed record for steam locomotives at 126 mph (202.7 km/h). The record was achieved on 3 July 1938 on the slight downwards grade of Stoke Bank south of Grantham on the East Coast Main Line, and the highest speed was recorded at milepost 90¼, between Little Bytham and Essendine. It broke the German (DRG Class 05) 002's 1936 record of 124 mph (200.4 km/h).

Dreams of an ACC First WeekendPosted by Matt Patton on March 18th, 2015
The ACC's six NCAA Tournament teams have a lot on the line this weekend. Let's take a look at each to determine how their current status projects in getting through the first weekend and beyond.
- Duke: The Blue Devils look to avoid another early exit after suffering two huge round of 32 upsets in the last three years (Mercer – 2014; Lehigh – 2012). The 2013 team advanced according to seed, losing to eventual national champion Louisville in the regional final, but that Duke squad was led by three seniors. The makeup of this year's group — with only one senior — is very similar to those two young Duke teams that were bounced by double-digit seeds. But don't expect another opening game debacle this year since Duke has earned the advantage of a #1 seed for the first time since 2011. Just getting out of the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament unscathed is not the goal for this team, however, as anything short of an Elite Eight appearance would be a major disappointment. Duke has won several games in tough environments already this season, but the finality of the NCAA Tournament could cause Coach K's inexperienced team to tighten up. If it can handle a potential grinder on Sunday, that may be enough to loosen up the Devils for a much deeper run.
- Virginia: All eyes will be on Justin Anderson when the Cavaliers take the court in Friday's opener against Belmont. For Virginia to make a Final Four run, they're going to need to have Anderson (and his offensive game) back in shape quickly. Assuming they handle the Bruins, Michigan State looms as the likely third round opponent in a rematch of last year's Sweet Sixteen meeting in Madison Square Garden. The Spartans won that tightly contested game and come in to this year's NCAA Tournament probably playing better than Virginia is right now. Good defense and a revenge factor will not be enough, though – the Cavaliers need buckets, and a healthy Anderson gets them easier than anyone else on the team. If Virginia makes it out of Charlotte, it will likely mean that Anderson has regained his effectiveness and that means bad news for the rest of the East Region.

Obama aunt who stayed in U.S. illegally dies at 61
BOSTON -- President Barack Obama's aunt, Zeituni Onyango, died Tuesday at age 61.
Onyango, who was denied asylum in the United States but stayed illegally for years, had been treated in recent months for cancer and respiratory problems, Cleveland attorney Margaret Wong said.
She died in a Boston rehabilitation center, said Wong, who represented her in her immigration case.
Onyango, a half-sister of Obama's late father, moved from Kenya to the U.S. in 2000 and was denied asylum by an immigration judge in 2004.
Onyango remained in the country illegally, living in Boston public housing. The Associated Press reported her status before Obama's election in 2008.
She was granted asylum in 2010 by a judge who said she could be in danger if she returned to Kenya because of her relationship with Obama.
Onyango was born in Kenya in May 1952 under a mango tree and was delivered by a midwife, Wong said.
She raised a family in Kenya and worked in the computer department of Kenya Breweries, she said.
"She was an awesome, funny, shrewd, smart lady born at the wrong place at the wrong time," Wong said. "If she was only born in America or born in more Western open society instead of being bogged down by tribes, lineage and being a woman in Kenya, she could have been anything she wanted to be."
Wong said Onyango had become ill in January and died early Tuesday morning in her sleep.
The White House, which had no immediate reaction to Onyango's death on Tuesday, previously said that Obama did not intervene in her immigration case.
Obama, in his memoir "Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance," affectionately referred to Onyango as Auntie Zeituni and described meeting her during his 1988 trip to Kenya.
She helped care for his half-brothers and sister while living with his father, Barack Obama Sr., in Kenya.

Farm to Plate: A Visit with Chef Brian Scheehser
Brian grows a myriad of produce: Lettuces, kale, tomatoes of every shape, size and color, winter squash, zucchini, peppers, fennel, eggplant, corn, fresh, colorful herbs, apples, pears, berries and much more. He's studied horticulture as much as he's studied culinary arts, seeing them on a spectrum of equal importance. Many crops are grown in green houses, and there is a constant negotiation of soil, weather patterns and production — the balance is pretty astounding and very inspiring.
It's a truly organic approach to cooking and growing food, a philosophy that really resonates with many of the contemporary food activists/writers/chefs such as Michael Pollan, Mark Bittman and Alice Waters, in particular. It's a return to basics. Brian grew up cooking alongside his mother and grandmother, and his food reflects this wholesome way of eating. Peaches are paired with sun-ripened blackberries, with a smattering of arugula to top it, a touch of olive oil and vinegar, and that's it. Perfectly ripe heirloom tomatoes need a sprinkle of salt and not much else. A luscious local peach, he believes, needs nothing but a mouth to bite into it and an arm to let the juices run down. In an era of foams, sous vides, and liquid nitrogen, it's encouraging to speak with a chef who wants to emphasize raw, natural flavors of real ingredients, without much dressing up.

Play to remember: After the Seahawks, who trailed by 16 points at halftime, had climbed within 19-17 with 3:56 remaining in the fourth quarter, Tedd Ginn Jr. caught the ensuing kickoff two yards deep in his own end zone, came out with it to his left, then made a sharp cut to the right as he reached a cluster of bodies. Crossing the field and then getting a block on the edge from rookie Colin Jones, Ginn turned the corner and was off to the races. He turned on the afterburners to get past Seattle kicker Steven Hauschka near midfield and then was gone down the right sideline, leaving Seattle's Earl Thomas trailing him the final 40 yards. The stunning 102-yard return was the second-longest by a San Francisco player at home in team history, and Ginn followed that 59 seconds later with a 55-yard punt return for another touchdown to punctuate the second two-TD game of his career.
Play to forget: Despite gaining just 37 yards of total offense in the first half, the Seahawks kept hanging around and put up 10 unanswered points to begin the second half. After the 49ers settled for another short David Akers field goal at the end of a 15-play, 72-yard drive with 5:54 remaining in the fourth quarter, Seattle proceeded to get right back in the game when rookie receiver Doug Baldwin found a cavity in San Francisco's secondary on an inside route, caught a short pass from quarterback Tarvaris Jackson between linebacker NaVorro Bowman and safety Reggie Smith, then turned up the field and out-raced Smith to the end zone for a 55-yard touchdown play against broken coverage that brought Seattle within two points with 3:56 still to play.
The turning point: With time running out in the first half and San Francisco clinging to a three-field-goal lead, the 49ers put the football in the hands of Alex Smith on a make-or-break play near the goal line. The 49ers had first-and-goal at the Seattle 1-yard line thanks to an interference call against Seattle in the end zone, but there was only 17 seconds remaining on the clock and the 49ers had no timeouts remaining in the half. Smith rolled right, looked into the end zone, saw room in front of him, then put his head down and charged for the end zone, spinning past the goal line after he was hit at the 1-yard line. Smith hit paydirt with 12 seconds remaining, giving the 49ers a commanding 16-0 halftime lead with the third TD run of his career and his first since 2006. Instead of having to settle for a field goal or perhaps get no points if they couldn't stop the clock again, the Niners went into the locker room with a huge lead they would never relinquish.
What went right
Auspicious start for Harbaugh era: It wasn't always pretty, but the 49ers did everything they needed to do to make Jim Harbaugh's debut as San Francisco's head coach a winning experience. And they did it against the defending NFC West champions, dictating the tempo and holding the upper hand pretty much in every phase of the game. In the process, Harbaugh became the sixth head coach in team history to win his debut with the Niners and the fourth to do it at home.
Alex in control: In his first start in Harbaugh's West Coast offensive system, much-maligned quarterback Alex Smith did little wrong, running the offense efficiently and taking what the Seattle defense was giving. Smith didn't make one poor throw the entire game, completing 15 of 20 passes for 124 yards with no interceptions and no sacks. Smith also rushed for 22 yards, including a 1-yard TD run, and finished with a passer rating of 90.4
Defense is nails: The San Francisco defense did a little bending in the second half, but that was after setting the tone for the afternoon by blanking Seattle in the first half, when the Seahawks were limited to just 27 yards of total offense. The 49ers controlled the line of scrimmage and stuffed the run up front, allowing just 64 rushing yards as the Seahawks averaged only 2.9 yards a carry.
Many happy returns: Ted Ginn was a showstopper at the finish, returning a kickoff 102 yards for a touchdown and a punt 55 yards for a touchdown in the space of a minute late in the fourth quarter to seal the victory, in the process becoming the first player in franchise history to return both a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns in the same game. Ginn's 268 total return yards also is a team record and ranks as the 15th-most by a NFL player since 1950. He became the first player in NFL history to record the feat on Kickoff Weekend.
The look of a winner: The 49ers hardly had the sloppy, disorganized look that characterized their opener against Seattle last year. They stuck to a methodical game plan and never trailed, committed no turnovers and received a complete team effort to win by 16 points in a game they were actually out-gained in total yardage.
What went wrong
Power lacking in run game: The 49ers' plan for a power running game wasn't up to snuff as Frank Gore had to work hard for each of his 59 yards on 22 carries, finding little room to work between the tackles. Gore often was met at or near the line of scrimmage before he could hit his stride and begin running downhill. Both Gore and the 49ers averaged just 2.7 yards, and the Niners failed to get Gore's backups involved in the game plan as other running backs totaled only two carries for four yards.
Hitting the penalty century mark: A few of them might have been questionable calls, but the 49ers finished the game with nine penalties for 102 negative yards, several of which aided drives that helped keep Seattle in the game.
Third-down blues: The 49ers were horrid on third downs, converting just one first down in 12 third-down opportunities, failing to convert on each of their first nine tries. That contributed to San Francisco finishing the game with only 12 first downs, usually a figure that would belong to a losing team.
No deep game: The 49ers rarely attempted to stretch the field as Alex Smith went deep with only a handful of passes the entire game. He hit on two sideline throws to Vernon Davis (27 yards) and Josh Morgan (26 yards) for San Francisco's two longest offensive plays of the game. Everything else was underneath coverage – San Francisco's didn't have another passing play that went for longer than 12 yards.
Units that stood out
Defensive line: A dominant and relentless effort throughout keyed by bookend tackles Justin Smith and Ray McDonald, who made life difficult on Jackson and Seattle offensive linemen the entire afternoon. McDonald led the 49ers with six tackles – three of them behind the line of scrimmage – and he also had a sack and three hits on Jackson. Smith had four tackles, sacked Jackson twice and hit him three times.
Quarterback: Give Smith his due. On a day when the 49ers found it tough to grind out yardage on the ground, Smith played mistake-free football, scored San Francisco's only offensive touchdown and completed 75 percent of his passes to do his part in keeping the unit moving. He was San Francisco's offensive star of the game.
Linebackers: A very solid performance throughout the unit. Middle linebackers Patrick Willis and NaVorro Bowman stuffed the inside and combined for 11 tackles, Parys Haralson had four tackles, two sacks and forced two fumbles, Ahmad Brooks contributed a quarterback hit and rookie Aldon Smith knocked down a pass. It was the 11th multi-sack game of Smith's career and the first two forced fumbles of Haralson's career.
Special teams: Needless to say, a spectacular, game-swaying effort. And it wasn't just Ted Ginn, who became the first 49er ever to return a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns in the same game. David Akers made all four of his field-goal attempts in his 49ers debut, Andy Lee averaged a gaudy 59.6 yards on his five punts with a fantastic 54.2 net – both career highs – and the coverage units were outstanding with several individuals making notable efforts.
Fast facts
--- Harbaugh became the first person in NFL history to pass for more than 25,000 yards as a player and also win a game as a head coach.
--- The 49ers won back-to-back games against the Seahawks for the first time since 2006.
--- Wide receiver Michael Crabtree saw limited action in the second half after experiencing pain in the left foot that kept him out of training camp and the preseason. Crabtree, who had surgery to repair a fracture in the foot in late July, said he had X-rays after the game that were negative. Crabtree finished with one reception for four yards.
--- Second-year cornerback Tramaine Brock recorded the first interception of his career when he went up high above a pack of bodies to snag Jackson's Hail Mary pass in front of the San Francisco goal line on the final play of the first half.
--- San Francisco's 10-3 record against NFC West teams since 2009 is tied for the best division record over that span by any NFL team.
--- The 49ers recorded five sacks of Jackson, San Francisco's most sacks in a season opener since 2005.
--- The 49ers have not allowed an opponent to rush for 100 yards in 23 consecutive games, the longest active streak in the NFL. Marshawn Lynch led the Seahawks in rushing with just 33 yards on 13 carries.
--- Ted Ginn Jr. became the 12th player in NFL history to have a kickoff return and a punt return for touchdowns in the same game, giving the 49ers their first special-teams touchdown on opening day since 2005.
--- New 49ers kicker David Akers set a new opening-day career high with 15 points on four field goals and three PATs.

Kentucky Derby could get intense
In all of turfdom, there is nothing like the Kentucky Derby.
It has resiliently held its position as North America's most outstanding horse race and as an elite sporting event for over a century.
Rich in history, the Derby was first run in 1875 and was won by Aristides, a horse who was piloted by a black jockey and trained by a former slave named Ansel Williamson. Indeed, the racing decree of the late 1800's was "All men are created equal, on the turf, and beneath it."
This year's Derby will be the 140th edition of the race, and handicappers must deal with the maddening uncertainty this unique race always provides. A group of 20 lightly raced 3-year-olds from all different regions will be asked to run the farthest distance they've ever run, face the largest field of opponents they've ever seen, and carry the most weight they've ever had to shoulder. They must do all of this in front of an expected crowd of 160,000 people.
The sensational Southern California invader California Chrome is expected to be a strong favorite in the wagering. He's captured four straight stakes races by a combined margin of more than 24 lengths. In his most recent start, California Chrome made a mockery of his opposition in the Santa Anita Derby.
From a general standpoint, I agree with the popular assessment that California Chrome is the best horse in the race. However, when factoring in the unique realities of the Derby, such as pace and distance, he loses all appeal to me.
This year's Derby field is loaded with early speed horses, and I anticipate a fast and contested pace that will favor stretch runners. The two horses who figure to benefit greatly from the hot pace are Intense Holiday and Wicked Strong.
Intense Holiday is a very dependable closer who has reportedly been training better than anyone leading into this race.
Two starts back, he captured the Risen Star Stakes with an impressive stretch rally. In his most recent start, he was taken out of his game from a tactical standpoint, and kept close to a quick early pace set by uncontested leader Vicar's In Trouble. After making a menacing turn move, Intense Holiday was leg-weary and drifted into the rail at the top of the stretch, but still had enough to chug home to a second-place finish. The expected hot pace and his reverting back to closing tactics will make a huge difference for Intense Holiday.
My other key horse is Wicked Strong. He captured the $1 million Wood Memorial in his most recent start, and did it by finishing powerfully on the way to a 31/2-length win. He must overcome an extremely wide post position, but no one will benefit from the fast pace more than he should.
Perhaps the oldest axiom in all of turfdom is "pace makes the race" -- and I anticipate a torrid Derby pace that should kill off all horses who are close to it. This scenario greatly enhances the chances of the stretch runners who do their best when allowed to languish at the back of the pack through the early stages. Of the closers, Intense Holiday and Wicked Strong are clearly the two best, in my opinion. From a betting strategy standpoint, box both of them in an exacta and make a 'win bet' on whichever one is being offered at higher odds.

Nnamdi Asomugha sat at his locker stall in full uniform with his head down long after the Philadelphia Eagles blew one they had in their grasp.
It'll be a long bye week for this turnover-prone team.
Matthew Stafford rallied desperate Detroit back from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit, Jason Hanson kicked a 45-yard field goal in overtime, and the Lions beat the Eagles 26-23 on Sunday.
"This is pretty bad because this was a big game for us," said Asomugha, the two-time All-Pro cornerback. "We lost last week and going into a bye this hurts a lot because it would have helped us. If we can't win a game like that, we have to go back to the drawing board. We have to close out a game like that."
A defense that held Stafford and Calvin Johnson in check for 3½ quarters collapsed at the end for the second straight week, and the Eagles (3-3) enter the bye with consecutive late losses. Ben Roethlisberger led Pittsburgh on a long drive that ended with a final-second field goal for a 16-14 win last Sunday.
"They wanted it more. We blew it," cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie said.
Stafford led Detroit to 17 points in the last 10 minutes to force overtime, throwing a TD pass and running for a score. He finished with 311 yards passing, one TD and one interception.
The comeback kept the Lions (2-3) from a 1-4 start a year after opening 5-0 en route to their first playoff appearance since 1999.
"It takes lot of heart," Stafford said. "It would have been a lot easier to just pack it in. This team has a lot of fight. We didn't play great. We did on defense, not on offense. Every guy in that locker room didn't stop playing, and that's what got us the win."
Michael Vick threw for 311 yards and two TDs, but he also had two interceptions and a botched snap led to another lost fumble. The Eagles now have 17 turnovers in six games, including 13 by Vick on eight picks and five fumbles.
"This is going to hurt for a long time," Vick said. "We put ourselves in position to win and didn't finish."
Down 23-13 after Vick's 70-yard TD pass to Jeremy Maclin with 5:18 left, the Lions answered.
Detroit had two shots from the Eagles 1 following a pass interference penalty on Colt Anderson with 13 seconds left in regulation. But Stafford misfired on both passes, and Hanson kicked a 19-yard field goal to send it to overtime.
"I don't know what to tell you other than we have to do better," coach Andy Reid said. "We've got to learn how to win football games. You have a 10-point lead with 10 minutes left, you have to learn how to finish."
The Lions sacked Vick on the first two plays of the extra quarter, forced a punt out of the end zone and started at midfield.
Stafford hit Johnson for a 17-yard gain to the Eagles 27 on first-and-20. A few plays later, Hanson nailed the winner.
"I was nervous," Hanson said. "We needed it bad. We needed it to get our season on track."
Johnson had 135 yards receiving, but the All-Pro wide receiver still has no TD catches from Stafford this season. He was called for offensive pass interference to negate his 11-yard TD grab in the fourth quarter.
The undisciplined Lions overcame 16 penalties, most in the NFL this season.
After Detroit closed within 16-13 in the fourth, the Eagles got their biggest play of the season when Vick connected with Maclin on a deep slant pass. It was Philadelphia's first play for more than 49 yards all season.
No problem for the Lions. Stafford had found his groove.
Stafford threw a 57-yard pass to Tony Scheffler to get deep in Eagles territory and then tossed a 17-yard pass to Nate Burleson to cut it to 23-20 with 3:32 left.
The Eagles went three-and-out, and Stafford drove the Lions downfield to tie.
Vick shook off a poor start and the offense finally got going late in the second quarter. He hit LeSean McCoy on a 2-yard pass to put Philadelphia up 7-6.
The Eagles increased their lead to 10-6 on Alex Henery's 26-yard field goal on the first series of the second half.

Anyone who knows how the CRJ1000 is doing with these two carriers?
When checking flightaware.com, most aircraft types appear in droves, but when entering "CRK" only one or two flights will appear, even during the daytime. Most I have seen is four aircraft in the air at the same time - this is surprising as the combined active fleet now counts 20 aircraft and most flights are between 50 minutes and 3 hours, so they should appear in larger numbers...?
Trip reports here and videos on youtube give generally a thumbs-up for the CRJ1000, but flights appear to be lightly loaded and everyone loves an empty seat next to them when flying (even on the A380), but how are they on full flights?
The galley layout is a bit unusual as they have a huge 5-cart sideway-mounted galley no 3 with the forward lav directly opposite, must be inconvenient for cabin crews trying to prepare for cabin service with pax going in and out of the lav? Couldn't they have used the CRJ900 galley configs?
The Iberia livery makes the CRJ1000 look better proportioned than the Brit Air Eurowhite which makes it look anorexic, me thinks.
Opinions and thoughts welcome

Bob Letcher: With all that snapping and unsnapping and re-snapping going on, how could a person who was never quoted as saying either "I apologize," or "I am sorry."—and never said either directly to me, or to the millions of Americans whom his pure ugliness offended, or to the millions of people around the world who count on America as a symbol of relative decency in a sea of that same ugliness he exhibited—how could he even begin to claim to have been sincere in his apology? And wouldn't an insincere apology be oxymoron?
Celebrity Ego versus Democracy
Charles D. Hayes: The state of public discourse in this country has deteriorated to such a degree that few public discussions ever go much further than the echo chambers in which they originate. A significant number our citizens behave as if they no longer believe in democracy at all.
False Political Dichotomy
Charles D. Hayes: uman history demonstrates beyond doubt that both liberals and conservatives are necessary for the common good and that veering too far in either direction is a recipe for ruin.
Proposition Hate Redux
The California Supreme Court ruled again on same-sex marriage. This time it did to uphold Proposition 8, restricting marriage to one man and one woman.

A Fleeting Moment of Democracy for California's Same-Sex Couples
In contrast to earlier times, our state now recognizes that an individual's capacity to establish a loving and long-term committed relationship with another person and responsibly to care for and raise children does not depend upon the individual's sexual orientation, and, more generally, that an individual's sexual orientation — like a person's race or gender […]

Joseph Zysk knew he wasn't going home.
Because he had admitted he punched to death his girlfriend's crying 3-year-old son in an act he testified was sleep-deprived frustration, the jury had two choices: Convict him of third-degree murder, or of involuntary manslaughter.
So by the time the Philadelphia jury announced its verdict Tuesday - guilty of involuntary manslaughter, hung on the murder charge - the 30-year-old Roxborough man had already said goodbye to his family and doffed his dark business suit, and was waiting in white T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers.
At court staff's urging, defense attorney Evan T.L. Hughes had Zysk redon his suit jacket, covering his muscular arms and the large tattoo of a teddy bear with a red heart on his right biceps, before the jury entered.

A sometimes stinging Venice Biennale
Venice, Italy — Every two years, this ancient and liquidy city is deluged by the art world, making it seem more unreal than it already is. Curators, collectors, critics and artists cram onto the Venetian islands for a three-day preview of what is effectively the Olympics of art, the Venice Biennale.
Attired like something out of "The Talented Mr. Ripley" – tailored and European and with all of the ingratiating and insinuating implied by that reference – many of the well-heeled dash like 8-year-olds sprinting for Space Mountain when the gates open each day. »Read Full Blog Post(1)
Camping is key at Alpine Valley, promoter says

MONTREAL - It could be said that the Flyers blew another two-goal lead in a playoff game, and lost.
It also could be argued that the Montreal Canadiens got a lot of help from the officiating with two calls that, in the end, negated an effort that should have put the Flyers ahead in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
Instead, a borderline, last- minute kneeing call and a resulting power-play goal by Alex Kovalev that tied the game and a ruling on a second-period Kovalev goal that appeared to have been scored with a high stick resulted in a 4-3 Montreal win in overtime last night in the Bell Centre.

Im probably gonna get thumbed down, and people wont believe me but.. My gf has one size for her legs, and a bigger size for her butt when it comes to jeans. I love it! But she is annoyed cus no jeans fits properly.
