This large duffel can hold everything you need it to, and then some! Outdoorsmen love this bag for week long hunts in the cold mountains here in Montana. It's big enough to accommodate boots, pants, coats and everything else you'd need to keep warm for a week while out in the field.
Handy touches like the end pocket zippers that zip halfway down for easy digging and the flip top lid that gets out of your way while packing and unpacking. And every zipper is paired with our fair trade Monkey Fist Zip Knots making unzipping a pocket so easy a blind monkey could do it.
Packed to the brim with innovative features like the unique pass-through panel docking sleeve located on the back of the duffel. Got wheeled luggage? Pair it up with the PR6 by unzipping the two zippers on this pocket and then slip the bag by its pocket flap over the telescoping handle.
Still, the Safari Beanos PR6 is designed to be shouldered, so the rubber padding on the Claw Shoulder Strap is molded directly to the webbing. This strap will never slip off your shoulder and the welded nickel plated hardware is the absolute best you can buy. Never will the hardware rust, break or bend.
Our customers like to define our gear as "built like a tank". While obviously you're not going to be toting around duffel bags that weigh 50 tons and have three inches of armor plate, still the comparison is valid. For a duffel bag, the Safari Beanos are built tough. Starting with one of the most durable textile materials available, 1000 weight CORDURA® nylon, we use super strong UV resistant thread that is double stitched into every seam. Rugged, reliable and tough.
Places where two separate pieces of fabric are stitched together are then bound, that is, we take a long piece of one inch wide nylon webbing and fold it over the edges of the two pieces and stitch them together, this creates a strong seam, or binding, that prevents the pieces from unraveling on the inside of the bag, or gives it a clean finished look if on the outside of the bag. Inside edges typically receive a thinner nylon webbing, whereas outside corner edges that are exposed to wear will have a thicker nylon binding. All of our binding material is vertically woven to prevent fraying, peeling or splitting that you may commonly see in competitors bags that brag of "binding" their edges.
Each stress point, such as where the handles attach to the bag, is double box stitched - which is where we get the "double XX" in our name, Red OXX; a stitching practice we adapted from our service as parachute riggers.
The reason Red Oxx uses the largest zipper we can find, the #10 YKK VISLON® zipper, is that they are easily repairable, even in the field; they will hold their place, that is, they "lock"; they are difficult to penetrate, thereby increasing the security of your belongings; they function smoothly in inclement weather and they can be yanked from a variety of angles without losing teeth or becoming separated.
Red Oxx has occasionally been accused of "overdoing" our hardware. But once you've had a cheap piece of plastic hardware break in the middle of a busy intersection, airport or other inconvenient locale dumping your precious belongings all over the ground, the trail or a busy airport for all the world to see (or steal) having a heavy-duty nickel-plated or stainless steel D ring or attachment swivel that weighs just a little more, or might make a little noise, is a travel companion's confidence builder and peace of mind maker. After all, you want to enjoy your journey as best you can. Why worry about having your bag break you down?
The PR6 duffel is the original LARGE in the Beano's Safari Series travel bags and can hold up to 70 lbs of gear. If you need more, try our Sherpa Jr. or Big Oxx!

Sometimes it can be difficult to know how to make a difference when it comes to something as overwhelming as cancer.
The numbers alone can make some shrug their shoulders and question whether they can even make their impact felt.
After all, more than 1.5 million new cases of cancer are diagnosed each year with more than 500,000 people dying from the disease annually, according to the American Cancer Society. About 250,000 of those new cases, and 40,000 of the deaths, are from breast cancer.
Need some perspective with those numbers? One in four deaths are cancer related. There is a reason the disease is commonly referred to as "The Big C" after all.
But there are plenty of ways anyone can lend a hand and help raise awareness or funding in the fight against breast cancer. Read on to find five simple ways you could begin doing so today ...
No. 5: Make your own pink ribbon lapel pin
Sometimes even the smallest of actions can have big impacts. While what you wear on you lapel probably won't change the world, every little bit helps, as the saying goes.
With that in mind, the American Cancer Society offers up a simple way even the sewing and craft impaired can make their own pink ribbon lapel pin.
The organization suggests making pins for not only yourself, but also friends and family to help spread awareness of the fight against breast cancer. While Breast Cancer Awareness month ends with October, the pins can be worn all year round for even greater impact.
The pink ribbons honor survivors, remember those lost to breast cancer, and support the progress being made daily in the fight against the disease.
All you need to make your own pin, as seem in the American Cancer Society's instructions, is a piece of pink ribbon and a safety pin. And even the safety pin isn't necessary if you have some glue and double-sided tape.
Once you are done, maybe it's time for a walk?
No. 4: Participate in fundraising walk or run
October may be ground zero for fundraising efforts in the fight against breast cancer, but there are plenty of other events that take place year round.
One of the leaders when it comes to raising awareness and funds is Susan G. Komen for the Cure, the world's largest breast cancer organization. The organization runs 3-Day for the Cure walks, in which participants walk 60 miles in three days, camping out along the way.
In order to participate in the event, walkers must raise $2,300 in donations.
The organization also runs the Race for the Cure, a series of 5K runs and fitness walks. The effort started in 1983 and has grown from one race with 800 people in Dallas to a global series of more than 140 races with 1.6 million people on four continents.
Net proceeds from both series of events fund innovative global breast cancer research and local community programs supporting education, screening and treatment.
After your walk, it's time to hit the store ...
No. 3: Buy pink products
If you've been in a store lately, you've likely seen the pink products pledging a portion of their proceeds toward finding a cure for breast cancer.
From your morning cup of coffee to your afternoon snack of yogurt, the things you buy every day can benefit breast cancer charities.

More than a decade ago, when Food Network still showed people cooking rather than filling the airwaves with travel shows and other silliness, a quirky little show run by a former commercial director, which had made its debut on Chicago public television the year before, joined the FN lineup.
The world would never be the same, or at least the foodie portion of the world.
"Good Eats," hosted by Alton Brown, didn't just show us recipes and how to make them, it delved into the science behind the cooking, using everything from papier-mache chickens to sock puppets to illustrate complex chemical processes and cooking techniques. Brown's skill at commercial direction showed, with slick, well-timed segments that conveyed maximum information with enough fluff to keep it watchable.
The legion of fans built quickly. Calling themselves "Briners," a term that will be explained below, fans formed web communities, followed each episode obsessively, got together for marathon cooking sessions and, of course, haunted every public appearance by their guru.
I will never forget the first time I met Alton, at a book signing in Dallas after his first book, "I'm Just Here For The Food," was released. The bookstore had set out 50 or 60 chairs, and nearly 300 people showed up. When he came out from the back, Brown saw the assembled crowd and had a brief deer-in-headlights moment before recovering and spending far longer than originally planned signing books, chatting and taking pictures with fans.
Remember: This was the Era of Emeril, when TV chefs were thought to be largely untouchable, or at the very least unapproachable. To have a show host come down from the mountain and hobnob with the hoi polloi was unheard-of. We (yes, I'm a Briner) were sold.
With a loathing for "unitaskers" but a love for quality gadgetry, Alton was responsible for some considerable purchases in my household when the show began. It became a running joke that Bed, Bath and Beyond always just happened to have on sale whatever gadgets had been featured in that week's show. I learned that paying more for truly good quality wasn't a bad thing, but also that sometimes TV show hosts can afford things I can't.
"Good Eats" made stars out of its guests, as well. Merrilyn Crouch, who played Alton's clueless sister Marsha in several episodes, and even more notably Vickie Eng, who played gadget expert and master of snark "W" many times, both had their own legions of fans. Culinary anthropologist Deb Duchon and master baker Shirley Corriher provided necessary bits of book learnin', but also were woven into the plots of episodes, rather than simply appearing to dispense wisdom.
Like most great shows, every fan has his or her favorite episode. With the help of my friends at one of the longest-running and largest of the "Good Eats" communities, the Good Eats Fan Page, I've assembled a list of the 10 foods that Alton Brown either taught us most about or made just flat hilarious episodes about.
10: Haggis. In "Oat Cuisine," Brown takes on the character of a Scottish peasant to tell us how to make our very own haggis at home. While I don't know anyone who actually tried it, the bit is hilarious and worth watching.
9: Oatmeal. From the same episode came the recipe for Overnight Oatmeal, using steel-cut oats and dried fruit to create one of the great breakfast dishes of all time. Both my sons were raised on the stuff, and it's become a family favorite.
8: Squid. "Squid Pro Quo" is one of the greatest episode titles in the series' run. Brown has a flair for puns and cultural references in his titles. The show itself, based upon the pursuit of a mythical sea monster, is hilarious, and the Squid Vicious recipe makes calamari accessible to even the most inexperienced cook.
7: Coffee. Here's an episode that, to me, is emblematic of the show's highest purpose: taking things we've all made for years and showing a better way, with plenty of tasty science to back it up. Tired of bitter coffee? You're not using enough grounds. I buy a lot more coffee now than I did before this show, but "True Brew" showed me how to make java that both wakes me up and leaves my taste buds intact.
6: Pot roast. In "A Chuck for Chuck," we meet Chuck, a clueless fellow played by Daniel Pettrow who frequently appears and is educated by Alton. The foil-wrapped, aromatic-laden chuck roast made here isn't your mom's pot roast ... it's better.
5: Fried chicken. I spent the better part of 10 years trying to perfect my fried chicken recipe, trying everything from self-rising flour (disastrous) to various seasoning mixtures in pursuit of perfection. In one half-hour episode, "Fry Hard II: The Chicken," Alton tossed out most of what I'd learned and showed me the error of my ways. I haven't made bad chicken since ... which my cardiologist is not happy about.
4: Roast turkey. "Romancing the Bird," the first "Good Eats" Thanksgiving episode, is perhaps the most-cited by fans and non-fans alike as being where Alton truly staked out his territory as a culinary revolutionary. With statements like, "Stuffing is evil," he sent legions of us scurrying for vegetable broth, peppercorns and spices to brine our birds, and aromatics to put inside the body cavities. A lot of us also learned that our ovens were, indeed, capable of reaching 500 degrees. This is where the Briners nickname began.
3: Chocolate-chip cookies. "Three Chips for Sister Marsha" was, for me, the point at which I became a kitchen science nut. Starting with the basic Toll House cookie recipe, Alton brings the science to make three different styles of cookie: the Thin, the Chewy and the Puffy. The explanation of how fats and proteins work to bring about the different end results, explaining for example the difference between using melted or softened butter or bread vs. all-purpose flour, was eye-opening.
2: Biscuits. Again, we have a simple food that for many people has become something bought premade or, at best, made from a mix. With help from his real-life grandmother, Mae Skelton, Brown brought the science and the craft together to show how even the most fumble-fingered baker could make good biscuits.
1: Steak. This is a purely personal choice. I spent years paying good money for steak in restaurants that almost always disappointed me on some level. In the very first "Good Eats" episode, "Steak Your Claim," Brown showed how using good beef, minimal seasoning and an insanely hot cast-iron skillet could prevent me from ever wasting another dime on restaurant steak.
There are dozens of other great moments and episodes, and everyone's got their favorites. I would be remiss if I didn't mention two of the greatest "stunt" innovations the show debuted over the years: the drill-aided pepper grinder and the exhaust-pipe Weber grill. With the first, Alton attached a power drill to the mechanism of a pepper mill in order to coat an entire salmon flank. With the second, he attached a length of exhaust pipe to one vent of a Weber kettle grill and stuck a hair dryer in it to create a blast-furnace effect. I have seen both done in countless videos with often hilarious results.
"Good Eats" reruns move now to the Cooking Channel, where they've been edited to wedge in more commercials. One of the great things about the shows was that there was very little wasted space, and in most cases I've seen so far the editing is done with all the finesse of a broadsword hitting a peasant. My recommendation? Pick up the DVDs on sale and see all the tasty extra footage and commentary included. There are even a few with Q&A sessions fueled by Good Eats Fan Page members.
For those of you mourning the end of the series, cheer up! This just leaves more time for FN to annoy us with Guy Fieri, reality shows and whatever other vaguely food-related tripe they churn out on the cheap.

Pistorius defense scores at hearingBy LYDIA POLGREEN
New York Times | February 21,2013AP PHOTO
A woman holds a photo of Reeva Steenkamp as she leaves her funeral in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, on Tuesday.PRETORIA, South Africa What began Wednesday as a day for the prosecution to solidify what it had described as an irrefutable case of premeditated murder against Oscar Pistorius, the Paralympic champion, turned into a near-rout by the defense, which attacked the testimony of the states main witness, the chief police investigator.
It was the second full day of a hearing to decide whether Pistorius, the double amputee nicknamed Blade Runner who made Olympic history by running with able-bodied athletes in the 2012 Games in London, should be given bail as he awaits trial for shooting his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, early last Thursday. Pistorius claimed in an affidavit read in court Tuesday that he had mistaken Steenkamp for a burglar and had shot her out of fear.
But what was supposed to be merely a bail hearing took on the proportions of a full-blown trial, with sharp questions from the presiding magistrate, Desmond Nair, and a withering cross-examination that left the prosecutions main witness, Detective Hilton Botha, grasping for answers that did not contradict his earlier testimony.
At first, Bothas testimony seemed to go well. He explained how preliminary ballistic evidence supported the prosecutions assertion that Pistorius had been wearing prosthetic legs when he shot at the bathroom door, behind which hid Steenkamp. Pistorius claimed in his affidavit that he had hobbled over from his bedroom on his stumps, and felt extremely vulnerable to an intruder as a result.
As Botha described how bullets had pierced Steenkamps skull and shattered her arm and hip bones, Pistorius sobbed with his head in his hands.
A defenseless woman, unarmed, was gunned down, Botha said.
Using a schematic diagram of the bedroom, the prosecutor, Gerrie Nel, asked Botha to walk Nair through the crime scene. The detective explained that Steenkamps slippers and overnight bag were on the left side of the bed, next to the sliding balcony door that Pistorius claimed he got up in the middle of the night to close. He also said the holster of Pistorius 9 mm pistol was found under the left side of the bed, next to where Steenkamp would have been sleeping. That called into question Pistorius statement that he thought Steenkamp was still in bed when he heard the sound of a burglar, the detective said.
If the girl was on the bed, that is where the holster was found, Botha said.
Botha said investigators had found two boxes of testosterone along with syringes and needles in Pistorius bedroom.
Testosterone is a banned substance for most professional athletes, and is known to increase aggression in people who take supplements of it.
Asked by Nel what he would have done had he suspected that an intruder was in his bedroom, Botha replied, I would get my girlfriend and try to get her out of the room.
He said he had interviewed witnesses who said that they heard shouting in the house, and that the lights were on, contradicting Pistorius statement that it had been too dark to see anything in the bedroom.
A neighbor, he said, heard two people talking loud at one another, it sounded like a fight, between 2 and 3 a.m.
Other witnesses spoke about hearing two or three shots, then a womans scream, followed by more shots, Botha said.
He also described previous violent incidents involving Pistorius. He had threatened to assault a man in an altercation about a woman at a racetrack, Botha said. He told another man that he would break his legs, Botha testified.
Botha also testified that Pistorius had foreign bank accounts and a house in Italy, which made him a flight risk.
I believe he knew that she was in the bathroom, Botha said. And that he shot four shots through the door.
Barry Roux, a lawyer for Pistorius, cross-examined Botha, seeking to poke holes in his account.
The substance found, Roux said, was not testosterone at all but a herbal supplement called testocomposutim coenzyme, which is used by many athletes and not banned by anti-doping agencies. Asked if the substance had been tested, Botha said tests had not yet been completed.
I didnt read the whole name on the container, Botha admitted.
He acknowledged that the witness who claimed to have heard the two arguing had lived almost 2,000 feet away, possibly out of earshot. Under questioning by the prosecutor, he later revised the estimate to 1,000 feet.
Botha also acknowledged that there were no signs that Steenkamp had defended herself against an assailant, and that the police had no evidence that the couples relationship was anything but loving.
Roux accused the prosecution of selectively taking every piece of evidence and try to extract the most possibly negative connotation and present it to the court.
Botha was forced to admit that the police forensic team had missed a shell casing that the defense lawyers later found in the toilet bowl, and that he had entered the crime scene without covering his shoes because the police had run out of shoe covers.
Eventually, Botha conceded that he could not rule out Pistorius version of events based on the existing evidence.
Nair seemed skeptical that Pistorius was a flight risk.
Do you subjectively believe that he would take the option, being who he is, using prostheses to get around, familiar as he is, to flee South Africa if he were granted bail? Nair asked Botha.
Yes, he replied.
The court was adjourned, and final arguments in the bail hearing are to be heard Thursday morning.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of... Full StoryVermont fish hatchery changes focus, looks inland

MLB chief operating officer Rob Manfred was elected baseball's 10th commissioner Thursday and will succeed Bud Selig in January.
The team owners were deciding between Manfred and Red Sox chairman Tom Werner on the last day of their quarterly owners meetings in Baltimore. Manfred fell one vote short of the 23 votes he needed for a three-quarters majority in initial voting, but, after much back and forth, was eventually elected unanimously by all 30 owners.
According to reporting by the New York Daily News, the Blue Jays, Red Sox, White Sox, Nationals, Angels, Athletics, Diamondbacks, and Reds were the eight teams voting against Manfred initially.
Manfred and Werner were selected as finalists for the position last week along with MLB vice president of business Tim Brosnan, who dropped out of consideration shortly before Thursday's vote.
Manfred, 55, had long been viewed as the favorite to succeed Selig, who promoted him to the chief operating officer position in September. He had spent the previous 15 years as MLB's executive vice president of labor relations, working closely with Selig.
"I am tremendously honored by the confidence owners showed in me today," Manfred said at his introductory press conference. "I have very big shoes to fill."
Werner has been a member of the Red Sox ownership group for 12 years after previously owning the San Diego Padres for more than a decade. Before he got into baseball, he was a TV executive, helping create sitcoms like "Mork & Mindy," "Bosom Buddies," "Soap" and "Taxi" before co-founding The Carsey-Werner Company, which created a number of hit sitcoms, including "The Cosby Show," "Roseanne" and "That '70s Show."
Selig, who is retiring at age 80 after 22 years as commissioner, will step down at the end of his term on Jan. 24, 2015. However, he is expected to remain involved in baseball in some limited capacity even after retiring as commissioner.

Residents shaken by a tornado that mangled homes in Mississippi woke up Monday to a day of removing trees, patching roofs and giving thanks for their survival.
The storm tore across Mississippi damaging about 300 homes and buildings, the National Weather Service said. More than 60 people were treated for injuries at Forrest General Hospital, NWS said..
Gov. Phil Bryant plans to visit hard-hit Hattiesburg, where a twister moved along one of the city's main streets and damaged buildings at the governor's alma mater, the University of Southern Mississippi.
The tornado took down part of the Alumni Center on U.S. 49 south of the USM stadium. There were also trees down at U.S. 49 and Hardy Street.
Hattiesburg pilot Eric Price had his cellphone ready Sunday when the tornado plowed through the city.
"Oh my God, I've never seen a tornado before in my life," Price said on the video.
"To see debris flying in the air -- what I thought was roofs, possibly cars, houses, people's lives destroyed right in front of me -- and it's nobody's fault except Mother Nature's. It was just breathtaking," Price told 16 WAPT's Erin Kelly.
There were few students on campus Sunday. USM had a four-day break for Mardi Gras. There were no classes scheduled Monday or Tuesday because of the campus holiday.
"We've been through hurricanes, but a tornado is a first," said Joe Paul, vice president of student affairs. "I've been here over 30 years. So, it's both scary, but when we look and see that the heart of the campus is fine, our students are fine, I feel really blessed."
USM officials said the tornado damaged six academic buildings and leveled historic oak trees.
"These trees -- the biggest thing is that they're 150-, 200-year-old trees, and you realized what they've been through with all the storms we've had and all that and now they're gone," said Loren Erickson, USM's landscape director.
At least 9,700 were still without power Monday, said the Electric Power Associations of Mississippi. The majority of the outages were in Forrest and Lamar counties, officials said.
Emergency officials said late Sunday that they weren't aware of any deaths.

Pseudoclaudication and claudication cause similar symptoms — leg pain while standing or walking — but for different reasons.
Pseudoclaudication can be a symptom of lumbar spinal stenosis, a condition that occurs when the spaces narrow between the vertebrae in your lower back. Normal aging shrinks the disks that act as cushions between vertebrae. Bone spurs can further reduce the space available in the spine.
The nerve roots that control movement and sensation in your legs pass through narrow openings in your spine. If these openings become too narrow, they can put pressure on the nerve roots and cause pseudoclaudication pain. The narrowing is made worse by standing or walking. Pseudoclaudication pain is usually relieved by sitting or lying down.
The pain associated with claudication occurs for an entirely different reason. Claudication is caused by peripheral artery disease, a circulation problem that decreases blood flow to leg muscles. The reduced amount of fuel and oxygen can cause muscle pain, especially during exercise. Vascular claudication causes pain when the muscles are in use and is relieved when the muscles are allowed to rest.

Federal officials will investigate last week's crash on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge as new cellphone video shows the survivor swimming to safety moments after her car plunged off the bridge Friday night.
Morgan Lake was clearly hurting as she hung on to the rocks around a bridge piling. It took her almost a minute until she could actually pull herself out of the water, the video showed.
The video was taken by a Virginia Realtor, Scott Fortney, who said he was three cars behind the tractor-trailer that hit Lake's car, pushing it over the side of the bridge.
Fortney said he saw Lake's car go under water and start filling with water while she was still buckled in. He started recording after she emerged from the water.
"I was thankful to see her get to the rocks so quickly. She was definitely disoriented," Fortney told 11 News.
Several people on the bridge began talking to Lake, trying to keep her calm.
"Had she not been clinging to the rocks, I think a number of us would have probably jumped in after her. It was only about 30 feet. I could see where the vehicle was. I could see the car underwater. I could see the wheel, it was only about a foot underwater," said Fortney, who put his video on YouTube.
Feds to investigate
Meanwhile, the National Transportation Safety Board said Wednesday evening it will investigate the accident as calls from AAA and U.S. Sen. Barbara Mikulski grew louder for federal officials to investigate the safety of the Bay Bridge and its restraint systems.
"It could have been somebody elderly. There could have been babies in that car. It doesn't matter. You can't fall 40 feet off a bridge after being rear-ended by a truck and think it's OK," Mikulski said.
She and other officials are urging the NTSB to investigate the bridge structure, traffic patterns and whether it meets current federal standards, which require bridge barriers to contain passenger cars during a crash.
The eastbound span -- where Lake's crash occurred Friday night -- opened more than 60 years ago.
The NTSB said Wednesday it will send two investigators from the Office of Highway Safety to Maryland to meet with local authorities about the July 19 crash. Officials said the agency will determine if there are any nationwide safety issues involved.
The Maryland Transportation Authority said it welcomes the federal involvement in its ongoing efforts to ensure the safety of motorists crossing the Bay Bridge.

The guide also recommends that all seniors, regardless of their health issues, look for vehicles with solid safety features and a proven safety record. Crash test and rollover ratings are available at Safecar.gov and IIHS.org.
Other safety features to look for include antilock brakes, head restraints to reduce the risk of neck injuries, dynamic stability control to help prevent loss of control in a turn, and side and dual-stage or dual-threshold air bags that inflate based on the severity of the crash.
However, AAA and NODTRC also stress that there is no one-size-fits-all standard when it comes to seniors and the cars they drive.
"As we age, each of us ages differently, so the vehicle that works best for us is going to be different for each," Nielsen said. "Each driver should find the car that suits them absolutely the best."

A southwest Florida man has been arrested after authorities said he poured lighter fluid around his home and started a fire in the bedroom of two children.
Sheriff's deputies said Randy Lisenby, 44, was fighting with a woman with whom he was living Saturday and threatened to set their Plant City home on fire. He allegedly poured the flammable liquid around the doorway, and some of it splashed on two young children.
According to a report, the woman and children left the home.
Deputies said Lisenby started a fire in the children's bedroom, burning a rug and blankets, and then tried to light a fire at the back door before deputies talked him outside.
He faces charges of arson, aggravated assault and child abuse.

Kevin Harvick and the Budweiser Team Finish 10th in the Final Race of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup at Richmond International Raceway
September 9, 2012
Start - 13
Finish - 10
Laps Led - 0
Points - 9
Kevin Harvick and the No. 29 Budweiser team brought home a 10th-place finish in the rain-delayed Federated Auto Parts 400 at Richmond International Raceway Saturday night. The Richard Childress Racing driver started the 400-lap event from the 13th position and alerted his crew he was battling a loose-handling condition as he traveled around the 0.75-mile race track during the early laps of the final race of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. Crew chief Gil Martin called Harvick to pit road on lap 47 during the competition caution for four tires and fuel, along with air pressure and chassis adjustments. The Bakersfield, Calif., native returned to the track in the 12th position for the ensuing restart and quickly worked his way into the top 10 by lap 51. As Harvick continued to move toward the front of the field he reported the No. 29 Chevrolet was handling well, but had become a touch tight in the middle of the corner and was still loose on exit. On lap 139, NASCAR officials displayed the yellow flag for rain and the Budweiser pit crew was called to action as Martin instructed Harvick to return to pit road for four fresh tires, fuel and another round of chassis adjustments. A few laps later, NASCAR officials brought the cars down pit road and displayed the red flag as the rain intensified. Following a 51-minute delay, green-flag racing resumed on lap 155 with the 36-year-old driver listed in the ninth position. As a slight threat of rain loomed, Harvick continued a charge toward the front of the field while battling the loose-handling condition on the Budweiser Chevrolet, but was able to work his way to the fourth position before ultimately crossing the finish line in 10th place. Following the 26th-points paying event, Harvick earned a position in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup and will start the 10-race "Chase" next weekend at Chicagoland Speedway as the ninth seed.
"This No. 29 team has been real competitive the last three weeks and raced at the front of the pack. That is what we have to do. Tonight we probably had a fourth-place Budweiser Chevrolet and thought it was going to rain there, but it didn't. Then we pitted because we knew that we didn't want to wind up in the boat that all those other guys were on old tires. All in all, we took a chance there with the rain, but we had a solid car and we have had a solid car the last three weeks."

A Utah man was arrested after police said an argument over "seat saving" in the pews escalated to a fight in the parking lot and another man being hit by a car.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' Meadows Ward in Plain City was unusually packed this past Sunday. More than 400 people were in attendance for a missionary's farewell and a baby blessing, Salt Lake City TV station KSTU reported.
Seats were at a premium, and an argument erupted over whether a handful of seats had been saved and whether someone was sitting there.
The disagreement spilled into the church parking lot, where police said punches were thrown.
One man went inside to clean himself up and was then hit by a car, Weber County sheriff's Lt. Mark Lowther told KSTU.
"He ended up on the hood of the car," Lowther said. "We did an investigation, there was conflicting stories (between the two men), but according to witness accounts there was enough probable cause to make an arrest for aggravated assault."
Wayne Dodge, 51, was booked into jail on suspicion of aggravated assault and disorderly conduct. Jail records show Dodge posted bail and was released a short time later.
The victim in the incident was not hospitalized, police told KSTU.

|Toms Tips On Better Anchoring
Contributed by Tom Neale - This blog has been viewed 6983 times and there are 0 comments
|1. Bring more than one anchor and make sure they're good tried and true anchors.
2. Try to know your bottom. "So" on the chart doesn't necessarily tell you the bottom is soft. Look at the banks. Drop your anchor and retrieve it to see what's on it; or drop over a small grappling hook, drag it around the boat and pull it up.
3. Take into account your surroundings. For example, if you're in a narrow creek with strong reversing current and high wind blowing across the creek, you must plan for much less swinging room and zero tolerance for dragging and circling around the anchor. ...... Read More

2. Often it's easy to temporarily stop even a big leak. This at least gives time for help to arrive ... or maybe for you to get to shore.

Arrests made in Rutland area vandalism spreeBy Brent Curtis
STAFF WRITER | January 26,2013Rutland police say a vandalism spree that damaged more than 100 vehicles, businesses and homes in the city and surrounding communities during the last few days has been brought to an end.
On Thursday night police arrested Jacob Eells, 18, of West Rutland, Cade Bowen, 17, of Castleton, and Cody Vanguilder, 17, of West Rutland, who police say were responsible for the vandalism estimated to have cost tens of thousands of dollars in damage.
This is the largest act of vandalism in the city that anyone can remember, Rutland Police Chief James Baker said Friday. It represents a serious violation of the moral values of the community, and it targeted some of the most vulnerable residents. We will continue to work to ensure that justice is served for those victims.
The teenagers were charged with multiple counts of unlawful mischief both felony and misdemeanor counts, according to Rutland Police Sgt. John Sly.
But they wont appear in court to answer the charges until Feb. 4 as police continue to investigate cases of vandalism that were still being reported Friday morning.
Were working on tallying the total amount of damage, Sly said. We need specifics from every victim. Its going to take some legwork to get estimates and do a final tally. Thats why they were cited into court.
Through the evidence of an eyewitness, several surveillance cameras and interviews with the teens, some of whom allegedly confessed to the acts, Sly said police were able to build their case.
In one of the videos police have obtained, a white Buick sedan can be seen stopping in front of a business. A shooter then fires at a glass door and the car drives away, Sly said. The Buick is seen in other videos and was identified by the only witness police have found so far, the sergeant said.
With that evidence, Sly said, police were able to find the vehicles owner the father of one of the suspects. City detectives investigated all three teenagers, he said, and obtained a confession from at least one.
Since 3 a.m. Wednesday, when the first complaints of broken windows were phoned in, city police have responded to more than 100 reports of vandalism involving windows shot out with pellet guns, Sly said.
The number of shootings in Rutland Town and West Rutland, where similar vandalism was reported, is still being tallied, Sly said.
Its horrendous, he said. The number of people adversely impacted by their actions is huge.
As for the reason for the shootings, there was none, Sly said.
There was no specific motive given. There was no targeting of specific individuals. As we suspected, it was purely random acts, he said.
The last report of broken windows due to vandalism was received at the Rutland Police Department at 3:05 p.m. Friday bringing the number of individual cases of vandalism from the spree in the city alone to 111.
Sly said the cases reported Friday were all believed to have occurred before the teens were arrested.
While the shootings have stopped, Sly predicted that city police would remain busy following up with victims and compiling spreadsheets and reports for the incidents.
This is going to keep us busy all weekend, he said.

Foyer Lights
Finding the Perfect Foyer Light
Lighting for your foyer is one of the most important areas to illuminate in your home, as it is typically the first place people and guests walk into and see the wonderful style of lighting you've added to your home. It is the light that can define your style – with that in mind, designers from leading manufacturers have let their creativity fly by crafting beautiful lights, from traditional to whimsical and contemporary styles.
A variety of different types of lighting complement the often grandiose spaciousness of foyers. Whether you hang a multi-tiered chandelier or a flush mount fixture, keep in mind that the bottom of the fixture should be at least 7 feet from the floor. Consider adding wall sconces to extra large foyers. As a rule of thumb, wall sconces should be 6 feet to 8 feet apart and hang 60 inches from the floor to the installation point.
Another key to Foyer Lighting is sizing it correctly. As a rule of thumb – Fixtures should generally hang 7ft from the floor. The width of a Foyer Fixture is another important consideration to take. Determine the total area of the room in feet. Convert to inches and that should be the approximate diameter of the fixture.

James DeVita draws attention for 'Shakespeare' from the New York Times
From here to there, James DeVita is getting noticed for his show "In Acting Shakespeare."
DeVita, a popular performer with American Players Theatre, didn't see a Shakespeare play until he was 24. Now he's known for performing works from The Bard - enough so that he created the solo show with the playwright's name (inspired by Ian McKellen's one-man salute to Shakespeare) and took it to, well, close to Broadway. Close enough to capture the attention of the New York Times, which reviewed the show today. »Read Full Article

On Tap Today: Super Bowl bites
It's time to come to the "acceptance" phase of the greiving process - the Packers will not be in the Super Bowl this year. So try to look on the bright side - you won't have to stress out so much during the game, allowing you to better concentrate on what's truly the most important aspect of any Super Bowl Sunday, the food.
And in that department, the Bay View Community Center (1320 E. Oklahoma Ave.) has you covered. From 6:30 to 9 p.m. tonight it's hosting a Super Bowl party cooking class. For $16 you can learn how to make five different varieties of wings--classic buffalo, Carribbean jerk, honey-habernero pepper, spicy Korean and parmesean garlic--as well as homemade cracked pepper potato chips with onion dip, and the unofficial state snack, beer and cheese fondue with soft pretzels. And you'll be to taste these snacks of the class of course, and there'll be soda, beer and coffee to help you wash it down. And raffle prizes. »Read Full Blog Post

The average cost for a Water Pump Replacement is between $364 and $551. Labor costs are estimated between $246 and $311 while parts are priced between $118 and $240. Get a personalized estimate based on your location and specific car. Estimate does not include taxes and fees.
Water Pump Replacement Cost for Isuzu Trooper
Water Pump Replacement Estimate (National Average)
When replacing the Isuzu Trooper's water pump, the drive belts and/or timing belt may need to be removed. The belts should be replaced if they show signs of wear or coolant damage.
The entire cooling system—including all the coolant hoses and fittings, radiator, coolant fan(s), and fan clutch (if equipped)—should be inspected when replacing the water pump.
To help prevent future issues, we recommend replacing the thermostat when the cooling system has been opened for repairs (e.g. water pump or radiator replacement) or during a system flush.
Isuzu Trooper water pumps require replacement if they begin to leak coolant or become noisy. Leaking water pumps can result in damage to the drive and timing belts.
A failed water pump can be caused by problems in the cooling system, such as a failing thermostat, radiator, or head gasket.

Principal Proposed Uses
Other Proposed Uses
- Antimicrobial
- Improving Appetite
- Indigestion
- Polycystic Ovary Disease
- Ulcers
Most Americans consider cinnamon a simple flavoring, but in traditional Chinese medicine, it's one of the oldest remedies, prescribed for everything from diarrhea and chills to influenza and parasitic worms. Cinnamon comes from the bark of a small Southeast Asian evergreen tree and is available as an oil, extract, or dried powder. It's closely related to cassia ( C. cassia ) and contains many of the same components, but the bark and oils from C. zeyleanicum are thought to have a better flavor.
What Is Cinnamon Used for Today?
Based on the results of one preliminary double-blind, placebo-controlled study, cinnamon has been widely advertised as an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes as well as high cholesterol . However, the evidence for this is mixed.
Germany's Commission E approves cinnamon for improving appetite and relieving indigestion ; however, these uses are not backed by reliable scientific evidence. 1
Two animal studies weakly suggest that an extract of cinnamon bark taken orally may help prevent stomach ulcers . 2,3
Preliminary results from test tube and animal studies suggest that cinnamon oil and cinnamon extract have antifungal, antibacterial, and antiparasitic properties. 4-10 For example, cinnamon has been found to be active against Candida albicans , the fungus responsible for vaginal yeast infections and thrush (oral yeast infection), Helicobacter pylori (the bacteria that causes stomach ulcers), and even head lice. However, it's a long way from studies of this type to actual proof of effectiveness. Until cinnamon is tested in double-blind human trials, we can't conclude that it can successfully treat these or any other infections. (For why double-blind studies are so important, see Why Does This Database Rely on Double-blind Studies? )
What is the Scientific Evidence for Cinnamon?
Based on previous animal studies that had suggested potential benefits of cinnamon for diabetes , 11,12 researchers in Pakistan performed a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. 19 In this 40-day study, 60 people with type 2 diabetes were given cinnamon at a dose of 1, 3, or 6 g daily. The results reportedly indicated that use of cinnamon improved blood sugar levels by 18%-29%, total cholesterol by 12%-26%, LDL ("bad") cholesterol by 7%-27%, and triglycerides by 23%-30%. These results were said to be statistically significant as compared to the beginning of the study and to the placebo group.
However, this study has some odd features. The most important is that it found no significant difference in benefit between the various doses of cinnamon. This is called lack of a dose-related effect, and it generally casts doubt on the results of a study. The researchers counter that perhaps even 1 g of cinnamon is sufficient to produce the maximum cholesterol-lowering effect, and therefore, higher doses simply didn't add any further benefit. There is another problem with this study as well: no improvements were seen in the placebo group. This too is unusual, and also casts doubt on the results.
In an attempt to replicate these results, a group of Dutch researchers performed a carefully designed 6-week double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 25 people with diabetes. 20 All participants were given 1.5 g of cinnamon daily. The results failed to show any detectable effect on blood sugar, insulin sensitivity, or cholesterol profile. Although this second study was smaller than the first because it had fewer groups, overall, its statistical validity is similar. These unsupportive results were confirmed in a Thai study enrolling 60 people: 1.5 g of cinnamon daily failed to produce any benefit. 24 On the other hand, a double-blind study of 79 people that used 3 g instead of 1.5 g daily did find that cinnamon improved blood sugar levels. 21 And, a randomized trial involving 58 people with type 2 diabetes also concluded that 2 g of cinnamon daily reduced HbA1c levels (a measurement of blood sugar levels over time), as well as high blood pressure. 27
In yet another small study involving 22 prediabetic patients with metabolic syndrome, researchers found that an extract containing 500 mg cinnamon given once daily was effective at modestly reducing fasting blood sugar and systolic blood pressure, and increasing lean body weight. However, the low dosage of cinnamon used in this study raises concerns about the reliability of these results. 26 And, a very small study that evaluated cinnamon for improving blood sugar control in women with polycystic ovary disease found evidence of benefit. 22
Regarding type 1 diabetes, a study of 72 adolescents failed to find benefit with cinnamon taken at a dose of 1 g daily. 23
Systematic reviews can sometimes clarify the existence of benefits but two systematic reviews published in 2012 and 2013 only provided conflicting results. The first review included a meta-analysis of 10 randomized trials with 577 patients who were given an average dose of 2 g of cinnamon per day for 4-16 weeks. The use of cinnamon was not associated with differences in blood glucose, HbA1c, or insulin levels when compared to placebo or usual care. However, most trials in this review had a moderate or high risk of bias, which affect the reliability of the results. 30
The second review included 10 randomized trials with 543 patients who were given doses of cinnamon ranging from 0.12 g to 6 g. Those taking cinnamon showed significant decreases in blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels when compared to placebo or no treatment. Although, there was no difference in HbA1c levels between the groups. Unfortunately, the wide variety of doses and length of treatment used in the included trials makes it impossible to determine an ideal dosage for treatment. 29
The bottom line: The evidence regarding cinnamon as a treatment for diabetes or high cholesterol is highly inconsistent, suggesting that if cinnamon is indeed effective, the dosage is very unclear and its benefits may be minimal at most.
Typical recommended dosages of ground cinnamon bark are 1 to 4 g daily. Cinnamon oil is generally used at a dose of 0.05 to 0.2 g daily. 13
Safety Issues
As a widely used food spice, ground cinnamon bark is believed to be safe. However, little is known about the maximum safe dosage of cinnamon found in capsules and in essential oil . Confusing the picture is the fact that Ceylon cinnamon (sometimes referred to as "true cinnamon") is different than the cassia variety. Only the latter contains significant amounts of coumarin, which has been shown to cause liver and kidney damage at high doses in rats and other animals. 28 Although there is limited evidence of such harm occurring in humans, it would be prudent for people with known liver or kidney disease to avoid dietary supplements containing cassia cinnamon. There is some evidence that high doses of cinnamon oil might depress the central nervous system. 14 Germany's Commission E recommends that pregnant women should avoid taking cinnamon oil or high doses of the bark. 15
When used topically, cinnamon bark oil may cause flushing and a burning sensation. 16 Some people have reported strong burning sensations or mouth ulcers after chewing cinnamon-flavored gum or candy. 17,18 However, these reactions disappeared within days of discontinuing the gum.

Punxsutawney Phil is off the hook for wrongly predicting an early spring -- for now.
A prosecutor in Ohio's Butler County who filed a tongue-in-cheek indictment against the famous Pennsylvania groundhog last week told The Associated Press he's dropping the charge.
Mike Gmoser said he decided on the pardon after Phil's handler took the blame for his faulty forecast.
Phil has been making his predictions at Gobbler's Knob since 1887.
If he sees his shadow, it means six more weeks of chill. If not, short sleeves are days away, according to CNN.
This year, Phil predicted an early spring after he didn't see his shadow upon emerging from his burrow.
But on the first day of spring March 20, the Northeast got pelted with more than a foot of snow. Cold temperatures have lingered, and some areas of the Midwest got nearly 18 inches of snow this week, leaving many Americans pretty crabby.
Bill Deeley, president of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club's Inner Circle, said Monday he misinterpreted Phil's "groundhog-ese."
But while he worried Gmoser may go after him next, the Butler County prosecutor said he's done prosecuting animals and has a lot of "really serious work" to do.
"Maybe another prosecutor can go after the Easter Bunny," Gmoser told the AP.

She said each person should have their own alarm clock, suited to their needs. Those who wake up slow may prefer an alarm with a light that comes on gradually, while others may prefer to wake up to their favorite CD.
Robertson said it is also important that each person figures out his or her own time to rise. While some people can get ready quickly and rush out the door, others like to take it more slowly. Each member of the family should figure out which wake-up time works best for them without interfering with other people's schedule.
If one person is feeling rushed and stressed, Robertson suggested trying waking up earlier in 15-minute increments until the have enough time to have an easy morning.
"People should have just as much time as they need to get out of the door without feeling stressed," she said.
Clark said all of the breakfast supplies should be all spread out. Cereal bowls can be set out and batches of waffles and pancakes can be made in advance and refrigerated or frozen.
"Anything that you can do ahead of time will aid in creating that ideal morning," Clark said.
Robertson said because kids have different school schedules and parents have to be at work at different times, eating breakfast together is not the easiest of things.
In fact, she said, it's not essential.
"I would much rather see families get out of house without a hitch and have a lovely dinner together," she said.
She said to focus more on creating healthy easy-to-assemble breakfasts such as smoothies and yogurt with granola. She also recommends a coffee maker with a timer to save a few extra minutes.
With a little preparation you can have quick, healthy breakfasts prepared, she said.
"There should be no reason to swing by fast-food places last minute," she said.
Shower Schedule
Having a shower schedule down pat is also great for avoiding morning chaos.
Robertson said to start with figuring out how long each family needs in the bathroom. If there is a major time issue, she said, have some family members blow dry their hair or put on makeup in their bedroom.
Clark said that some people could shower in the evening, instead. She said picking the person who usually takes the longest in the bathroom is best.
If there is a fight between siblings about who should take a shower in the evening, Clark said to alternate days so that the new schedule is fair to everyone.
3, 2, 1 -- Launch
Once you are ready to head out the door, Robertson said having what she calls a launch pad could help you leave nothing behind.
This is a place for charging cell phones and keeping keys, book bags and anything that needs to go out of the door with you.
"The launch pad in your home is where you come and go from," she said.
Robertson said figuring out a peaceful and organized way to do your morning routine can significantly affect your day.
And, Clark said, if one morning does go bad, don't let it carry over into the next.
"It is important to remember that just because your morning doesn't go smoothly one day, doesn't mean that it has to be that way for the rest of the week," she said.

Coach fired after dance team performed song Miley Cyrus made infamous
A Wisconsin high school dance coach has been fired after her team performed a routine to an edited version of "Blurred Lines," a popular song by Robin Thicke, the Wausau Daily Herald reports.

Juvenile arthritis is a term used to describe autoimmune and inflammatory conditions in children 16 year old and younger.
According to the Arthritis Foundation, while arthritis typically affects the joints, juvenile arthritis can also affect the eyes, skin and gastrointestinal tract.
There are many types of juvenile arthritis, but the most common type is juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
The Arthritis Foundation states that currently there is no known cause for juvenile arthritis.
If you suspect your child may have arthritis you should seek medical treatment to get an accurate diagnosis. According to the Arthritis Foundation doctors may perform multiple tests on your child to confirm juvenile arthritis.
While there is no cure for juvenile arthritis there are ways to relieve its symptoms. According to the Arthritis Foundation most treatment plans include a combination of medication, physical activity, healthy lifestyle and eye care.
