Anybody get their hands on any 2011 SN Bigfoot yet? If so, what do you think?
I just picked some up the other day at my local grocery. My wife and I split a bottle last night.
My taste buds are a little on the fritz as I'm fighting a head cold. I will say it was very tasty. I haven't had a chance to do a comparison with previous years yet, either. Maybe in a few days.
I did look thru the beer cellar and see that I've got 1993, 1994, 1995, 1998, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011.
Not so much of some, pretty good amount of some others. Not sure if we never had any 2004, or if we just drank it all.
I know back in the late 1990's distribution to Indiana was a bit spotty. I got the 1998 from a friend who lives in the Chicago area.

Impressive. I have the last six years running. Need to bust out a vertical test one of these days.

I haven't tried this year's Bigfoot yet. YET!
I always like it best when it's fresh. It looses the rough hoppy edge as it ages and just isn't as good, in my opinion.

Paul, is Bigfoot just now hitting Indiana or are you just now getting around to buying some. i've been checking the stores around Muncie with no luck.
I'm with you Tim. Young Bigfoot is the best. Once it loses that edge it isn't as special to me.

Been here a couple of weeks now. It's a little different this year as it usually is. Haven't chilled any past years to try it against yet. But I don't like to let them sit around more than 3-4 years max as that hop edge just goes away.

I'm with Tim and Pac, I prefer it fresh. There are cases of it stacked shoulder high at Dirty Johns Grocery in IC.

Bigfoot just showed up at my local grocery late last week. The liquor store across the street already had some, but they wanted $11.49 a sixer, so I passed and waited for the grocery store to get their delivery. I've turned the store manager and one of the butchers at the store into beer geeks, BTW. Now they're drinking craft beer instead of BMC. The butcher is particularly fond of DFH 60 Minute IPA and SNCA.
I, too like Bigfoot fresh, but I also like to see how it ages. The 1998 still tastes fabulous, even if the aggressive hop characteristic has faded some. I only have one or two bottles each of the ones from the early 1990's, and am keeping them more for sentimental value.
davidw, I love Dirty John's Grocery. I wear my Dirty John's PBR T-shirt all the time. Say hello to Doug Alberhasky next time you're in there. (I doubt if he'll remember me). One time we stopped in to buy beer to take back to Indiana, Doug spent over an hour with us, showing us the nooks and crannies, and telling us great stories about the history of the store. Turns out he like to come to Indianapolis for Indycar and NASCAR races out at the Speedway.

The closet is up against an outside wall in the corner of the basement.
I'd guess it stays about 60-62 deg F there. Maybe a little cooler this time of year.

Just bought a sixer at HY Vee $11.99 a sixer.
This was IMHO the very best Sierra Nevada Barley wine I have had yet. Very well balanced, and not as "in your face Hopppy" as other years that I have tasted. I am not a beer judge - so I go strictly by my own taste test, but this was outstanding. For the record "normally I do not like as big beer as a barley wine."
Question for the group. They had "Old Foghorn" by Anchor at $13.99 a sixer. I didn't buy it but for those more knowledgeable about Barley wines "How does it compare?"

Foghorn is an English style barleywine so the hops are subdued in comparison to an American BW. More malt forward but still a lot of hops to balance the malt.

I'm not a big fan of Foghorn. I'm not sure why. Just no "wow" factor, I guess.
Now, if they have any Rogue Old Crustacean at your liquor store, snag it regardless of cost.
I picked up some Bigfoot yesterday. Don't remember the price. (It was mixed in with a couple of Southampton 750s and a bottle of Ardbeg.) Plan to have one tomorrow night.

Two friends and myself did a tasting of '08 '09 '10 & '11 tonight. The older, the better was the consensus, especially with the two of them, who like less hoppy beers. I thought this yrs' was less hop flavorful and less hop aroma than other years.

I think you would be doing the HBD community a big favor by doing a vertical tasting of each of your SN Bigfoot's, and reporting your impressions here. Since people's moods can alter their perceptions (even taste perceptions) and moods can change from day to day, I recommend that you do the vertical tasting of your entire collection all in the same day. Now, I know that sometimes beer judges taste just a little of each beer for their evaluations, but I think in this case that would be wrong. A barley wine is (to use Michael Jackson's expression) a "thoughtful" beer. The only way to thoughtfully evaluate these beers would be to enjoy a full 12 oz. of each, before reaching for the next. I know there may be time constraints when sampling a selection as large as yours, but you need to sample these beers the way one would with no time constraints, in order to properly evaluate them. I recommend 5 minutes per bottle.
This is not a small amount of beer to be drinking at one time, to be sure, so a good base of food should be layed down (or is that laid down? My teacher always found me asleep during english class). On the other hand, these are rather heavy beers, so you can't eat too much beforehand lest you risk discomfort. Perhaps a saltine cracker before you begin. Have a glass of water when you're through, to prevent dehydration, and then arise early the next morning and write up your evaluations for posting to this forum. We will be anxiously awaiting to hear your report

Paul has 14 years of Bigfoot. To think that even three or four people could consume all of them in one sitting and retain any sense of judgment is beyond comprehension. I had friends who hosted an annual "strong beer dinner" toward the end of the year. They would serve a six-course meal accompanied by about a dozen beers, all 8 percent ABV or more. A number of us would buy or donate the beers from our own cellars. Anywhere from 10 to 15 people would attend. Arrangements were made for taxi rides home, and guests from out of town were put up for the night. I have to tell you that the end of the affair was usually in a fog.

The glasses were filled with about 2-3 ounces of each beer, but the accumulated alcohol intake, say, 30 oz. at an average of 9 percent ABV, certainly had its way with the brain, even when accompanied by a lot of food.

Our club has a competition for members for big beers every winter. This was the 17th year. It's called the "Heavy Hydrometer" because the traveling trophy is a plaque with a hydrometer on it that goes to 1.200 (the hydrometer came out of a lab where a member worked). I've been fortunate to win the trophy a few times in the past.
This past Saturday, we had 15 entries. On the light end we had 3 Baltic Porters, on the heavy end, we had 5 Russian Imperial Stouts. In between we a had a couple of old ales, an English Barleywine and a few American Barleywines.
Since I didn't have an entry this year, I was one of the judges. We did it as a Best of Show, rather than scoring each beer. Let me tell you, after those 15 beers, I needed a rest!
All 15 beers were very good, but we settled on one of the American BW's as the winner I think a RIS came in second and a Baltic Porter was third
Afterward we did do a mini vertical with some Bigfoot (2000, 2001, 2006, 2009, and 2010) that people had brought to the meeting. We thought the 2006 had aged the best.
I shudder at the thought of 14 Bigfoots at one sitting Randy

Doing a vert tonight with 07,09,10, and 11. Liked the 07 better than the 09 so far flavor wise. The 09 has much better head and lace though.

I finally tried the 2011.
Not the aroma of some years past but so very drinkable. An excellent beer! No surprise.
It seems very mellow to me already, without any aging.

I agree with Tim in that this years seems more subdued in hop charcater (in a good way) and rounded. The stinging bitterness of years past is absent. Great malt profile, but still with more than ample hopping. Delicious!

"Never met a wilderness she did like."
On June 25, a federal judge approved a subpoena, to be served by Chevron to Microsoft, granting the oil company private Internet and phone data related to 30 email addresses, including those related to environmental nonprofits, activists, journalists and lawyers.
This information forms part of a larger fishing expedition by Chevron to go after those who won an $18 billion judgment against the company in Ecuador in February 2011 for dumping 18.5 billion gallons of highly toxic waste into the streams and rivers in the rainforests of eastern Ecuador.
In its retaliatory lawsuit, Chevron claims that "this judgment is the product of fraud." And it is seeking the IP addresses of individuals involved in the suit over a nine-year period.
In particular, the subpoena calls for the production of all documents related to "the identity of the users of the email addresses, including 'all names, mailing addresses, phone numbers, billing information, date of account creation, account information and all other identifying information."
Like the NSA, Chevron claims that "the subpoena does not call for contents of emails sent or received by any of the thirty email addresses." It does however request Microsoft to "produce documents identifying the account holders and their available personal information" and "the IP address connected with every subsequent login to each account over a nine-year period."
As the subpoena itself states, it would allow Chevron to determine the countries, states, cities and even building addresses from which accounts were used.
Chevron also served subpoenas around September 18, 2012,to Google and Yahoo, demanding IP logs and identifying information for approximately 71 email accounts. Earth Rights International and the Electronic Front Foundation filed a motion to quash these subpoenas on First Amendment grounds in northern California on November 28, 2012.
According to Marissa Vahlsing, attorney, Earth Rights International (ERI), working on the case, "Chevron lost in Ecuador. Now, they have gone on the offensive in the U.S."
"Chevron fought particularly hard," she continued, "to enforce two extremely broad and invasive subpoenas against Amazon Watch, which has been running the Clean Up Ecuador Campaign for a decade."
In November 2012, Chevron served Amazon Watch a 28-page subpoena, demanding almost all internal documents and communications, memos, Facebook postings and emails related to Chevron campaigns and litigation.
The request included "all documents concerning any protests, rallies, marches, demonstrations, petitions or other similar events concerning Chevron or the Chevron litigations."
It included "all documents concerning any activities organized, created, or held on social media including, but not limited to, Facebook and Twitter, concerning Chevron or the Chevron litigations."
The subpoena was quashed on April 5, 2013, on First Amendment grounds. The document quashing it stated that "Amazon Watch has made a prima facie showing that the subpoenas seek information protected by the First Amendment."
With the latest subpoena, Vahlsing says activists are being "harassed and chilled" and "that Chevron seeks to establish a blueprint to go on the offensive."

The beauty and the tragedy of everyday life in a war zone.
By Wendell Berry
Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front
Love the quick profit, the annual raise, vacation with pay. Want more of everything ready made. Be afraid to know your neighbors and to die. And you will have a window in your head. Not even your future will be a mystery any more. Your mind will be punched in a card and shut away in a little drawer. When they want you to buy something they will call you. When they want you to die for profit they will let you know. So, friends, every day do something that won't compute. Love the Lord. Love the world. Work for nothing. Take all that you have and be poor. Love someone who does not deserve it. Denounce the government and embrace the flag. Hope to live in that free republic for which it stands. Give your approval to all you cannot understand. Praise ignorance, for what man has not encountered he has not destroyed. Ask the questions that have no answers. Invest in the millennium. Plant sequoias. Say that your main crop is the forest that you did not plant, that you will not live to harvest. Say that the leaves are harvested when they have rotted into the mold. Call that profit. Prophesy such returns. Put your faith in the two inches of humus that will build under the trees every thousand years. Listen to carrion—put your ear close, and hear the faint chattering of the songs that are to come. Expect the end of the world. Laugh. Laughter is immeasurable. Be joyful though you have considered all the facts. So long as women do not go cheap for power, please women more than men. Ask yourself: Will this satisfy a woman satisfied to bear a child? Will this disturb the sleep of a woman near to giving birth? Go with your love to the fields. Lie easy in the shade. Rest your head in her lap. Swear allegiance to what is nighest your thoughts. As soon as the generals and the politicos can predict the motions of your mind, lose it. Leave it as a sign to mark the false trail, the way you didn't go. Be like the fox who makes more tracks than necessary, some in the wrong direction. Practice resurrection.

Skip to comments.Jon Stewart Defends Colbert's Dinner Speech
Posted on 05/02/2006 11:07:14 AM PDT by MC Miker G
NEW YORK Probably to no one's surprise, Jon Stewart, host of Comedy Central's "Daily Show," hailed the performance of his stablemate Stephen Colbert at Saturday night's White House Correspondents dinner. Colbert's lampooning of the president and the press has generated a good deal of praise and criticism.
"It was balls-alicious," Stewart said. "Apparently he was under the impression that they'd hired him to do what he does every night on television" -- that is, make fun of conservatives, public officials, and the press in the guise of an O'Reillyesque talk show host.
"We've never been prouder of him, but HOLY ----," Stewart added.
He also described the annual dinner as "where the President and the press corps consummate their loveless marriage."
Colbert then followed Stewart, on his own show, "The Colbert Report," describing the "honor of appearing" at the big dinner. He said the room was full of "power players," so he "fit right in."
I blame the people that invited him more than I do Colbert. They either should have known, or they did know, what they were getting.
..am I the only one that thought he was funny?
Hey, the truth hurts.
Kinda like the idiots who invited Rosanne to sing the National Anthem. Really dumb idea.
He wasn't funny
Couldn't have been any worse, or better, depending on your point of view, than the year Imus showed up and absolutely ripped the Clintons.
At least he made Imus feel better.
Colbert's act flopped without a straight guy and props.
But the real problem was he followed President Bush. That was funny!!!
I have never found this Colbert guy funny at all, really.
I haven't been this pleased about a bombing since Doolittle did Tokyo.
yeah I thought it was pretty funny as well...disrespectful but funny.
Nope. I thought he did alright. Especially the video bit with Helen Thomas. Of course the jokes were meant to rub the administration... they always do. The whole point of the evening is that the President gets to rub back, too. But it's always been a "roast" type event.
I didn't think it was too bad, mainly because I didn't see it.
I saw Bush's thing on the internet. It was very funny.
I am just curious, wtf did the White House THINK was going to happen? It made as much sense as if they hired Olberman to be the press sec instead of the Snowman. Next time they should try this guy.
"Colbert's act flopped without a straight guy and props."
I think it had more to do with the type of jokes and the audience. He would get about the same response telling Jesus jokes in the vatican.
Jon Stewart is another example of comedians who believe because of what they do, they are instantly qualified to be serious political analysts.
Just like Franken and Garafalo.
It was well written, but poorly delivered.
"am I the only one that thought he was funny?"
I have to ask, are you Colbert's mom?
I thought he was really funny. But then again, I've never had trouble laughing at myself or skewering sacred cows... in fact, that's the kind of humor I prefer!
I missed the part where he made fun of the press.
He was not funny to me.
"..am I the only one that thought he was funny?"
No, there was that other guy who also scored some really good weed that night who thought he was funny.
Like No. 23 -- "Stoned on the Mountain."
The whitehouse didn't hire him. The Whitehouse Press Corp. did.
His routine had one or two (maybe three) moments that were funny. The Helen video was wretched.
Even the jokes about the Press weren't funny
No, I thought he was funny, too. Humor always contains an element of truth and in D.C., too much truth is deadly.
Methinks his jokes struck a little too close to home.
I especially liked his joke about the fabulous government (governing least) in Iraq.
Gee, Hitler defends Mussolini. Big suprise.
"They practically carried me out on their shoulders," he said, "even though I wasn't ready to go."
Now THAT'S funny.
Then I am surprised that is allowed to happen. I am also surprised they didn't just have Michael Moore come in and yell at the Bush's.
Exactly! What is it with the Dems that make them think these "clowns" or "comics" should have a say in the serious business of running the country? We have adults, they have comics.
It doesn't take much to entertain some people, as witness ten-year-old boys making farting noises with their underarms. That's the caliber of humor by the current crop of witless late nighters.
Don't quit your day job, Tex.
I only caught the very end and still haven't seen it, but the room was strangely silent. I only later learned that he had completely bombed.
Especially as my employees HAVE to laugh at my jokes.
I am so tired of the culture of 14 year old boys....
And Imus did exactly what he did every day on his show, too.
Only to you face. Behind your back, they're they one's making the jokes --at your expense. (Pun intended)
I didn't actually hear him, but the clips I heard on some of the radio shows were embarrassingly unfunny.
And even that sympathetic audience couldn't muster a laugh.
Didn't waste my time with it. Don't watch Letterman or Maher either.
Would rather chew sand or watch Helen T. take a sitz bath.
Fair enough, but then again, what does qualify one to comment on political matters? It's not as if Rush or Hannity have M.A.'s in political science.
Ah, we see eye to eye! I was a school teacher. I listened to this kind of *humor* day in and day out. It's tiresome (at least to me). It's like laughing at someone slipping on a banana peel or making fun of the fat kid in class.
"I missed the part where he made fun of the press"
Here's what he said:
"But the rest of you, what are you thinking, reporting on NSA wiretapping or secret prisons in eastern Europe? Those things are secret for a very important reason: they're super-depressing. And if that's your goal, well, misery accomplished. Over the last five years you people were so good -- over tax cuts, WMD intelligence, the effect of global warming. We Americans didn't want to know, and you had the courtesy not to try to find out. Those were good times, as far as we knew.
"But, listen, let's review the rules. Here's how it works: the president makes decisions. He's the decider. The press secretary announces those decisions, and you people of the press type those decisions down. Make, announce, type. Just put 'em through a spell check and go home. Get to know your family again. Make love to your wife. Write that novel you got kicking around in your head. You know, the one about the intrepid Washington reporter with the courage to stand up to the administration. You know - fiction!

Former NFL linebacker Seth Joyner was in Amarillo to support area high school football players who made their college choices official Wednesday, national signing day.
Joyner was the guest of My Passion Is Football founder Warren McCarty.
After playing college football at Texas-El Paso, Joyner was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in 1986. He was released in the preseason but was re-signed later in the season and stayed with the Eagles through 1993. He was with the Arizona Cardinals from 1994-1996, the Green Bay Packers in 1997 and the Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos in 1998.
Joyner discussed his NFL career with the Amarillo Globe-News.
What was it like playing in Philadelphia alongside Palo Duro graduate William Thomas at linebacker?
"It was a pleasure playing with him. The thing that impressed me most about him was that he wasn't a guy that came in with an ego and an attitude. He really came in wanting to understand and learn. He was a much better athlete than myself or Byron (Evans) ever was. I think if he had have been in the right situation and circumstance, it's highly likely that he would be one of those that you know about. He could just flat play."
What goes into the preparation for the Super Bowl?
"Two weeks is a long time. I think coaches can put themselves in a situation where they have the perfect game plan, and by the time the game rolls around, they've talked themselves out of it and switched the game plan. There's a lot of practice and a lot of mental work that goes into it. The first time through it was hard."
What was the Eagles-Dallas Cowboys rivalry like?
"It was a huge rivalry for me. To have an opportunity to play against Herschel Walker and Tony Dorsett early in my career. To be able to play against a legendary coach like Tom Landry and win some games against them was huge. For a long time, the NFC East was the best division in all of football. When you get a chance to beat up on the Cowboys, it's a great day in that part of the state of Pennsylvania."
What is your favorite memory against the Cowboys?
"Probably would be in Texas Stadium, Troy's (Aikman) rookie year. We sacked him like 11 times and knocked him down another 15 times."
What was the greatest play you either saw or were a part of?
"Eric Allen (of the Eagles) intercepted a ball one game and he must have ran 200 yards to score a 40-yard touchdown."
Growing up in New York, were you a Jets or Giants fan?
"Neither. I was a Houston Oilers fan because of Earl Campbell."

Instead of wrongly comparing drones to "imperial policing", the professors need to consider how their intended effects differ
Sir, The 14 historians who criticised the use of drone attacks (letter, Dec 7) have misread the lessons of history. In the War on Terror the most important perception of Western forces is not whether they comply with debatable and little-known notions of international "law" but whether or not they are seen to be winning.
During the 1930s British forces found in Iraq and Palestine that air policing attacks helped to suppress a number of rebellions, and their modern equivalent — the drone strike — sends a powerful message that is key to victory. The lesson which the terrorist's host population need to

Euro zone factory prices fall, mirror inflation

Euro zone factory prices fall, mirror inflation
Prices at factory gates in the 17 countries using the euro fell 0.2 percent in December from November, the EU's statistics office Eurostat said on Monday, as expected by economists polled by Reuters.
Prices fell by the same margin in November. Compared to the same month a year ago, the producer price index was up 2.1 percent in December, almost the same as annual consumer inflation that was 2.0 percent in January and neared the ECB's target of close to, but below, 2 percent.
The ECB's governing council kept rates at 0.75 percent at its January meeting and will discuss rate policy again on Thursday. The decision to keep policy on hold was unanimous last month, but economists are divided over the ECB's future moves.
Thirty-eight out of 73 analysts polled in January by Reuters said the ECB will remain on hold in the first quarter. None expected a rate cut this week.
"The ECB is unlikely to change policy stance at the February Governing Council meeting," Citigroup said in a note. "But we expect the tone of the press statement to turn more cautious on the economic outlook and more relaxed on the outlook for inflation," the bank said, referring to the ECB's explanation for its decision on rates delivered to the media.
Both consumer and factory inflation were driven up last year, despite the euro zone's recession, by high world oil prices and tensions between Iran and the West over Tehran's nuclear ambitions pushed up the cost of energy.
Lower world oil prices have since helped cut the cost of energy for industry and households in the euro zone, since Brent crude came down from $120 a barrel in August to trade around $110 a barrel towards the end of 2012.
Brent crude was around $116 a barrel on Monday, on signs of improving economic growth in the United States and China.
Last year's cooler prices were reflected in the euro zone's producer prices in December, and energy dropped 0.8 percent, the third straight month of falls, and by the same margin as in November.

May was the month of the 2×4, and yes we've joint the Summers woodworking creative 2×4 competition, like many others did. This Japanese style table was made out of the leftovers from a 2×4 used to make another table. The legs we splitted and then steam bended. The table top was glued together piece by piece.
The build is taped in this video:

My assignment for the Secret Recipe Club this month was the terrific blog The Friday Friends.
I first got acquainted with Debbie and her blog last year when she joined us for the Twelve Weeks Of Christmas Cookies. An avid reader,Debbie has a lot of good book suggestions, and a bunch of terrific recipes on her blog. In fact, she cooks a lot like I do. We have very similar taste. Proof? We have made several of the exact same recipes, like Bacon Wrapped Dates, and one of my favorite Fall foods, A Pumpkin Roll.
I had no trouble finding a recipe to make. I found a bunch, like Crackeroon Pie and Amaretto Cream Puffs!
I also stumbled upon a recipe for a bar called Mud Hen Bars. Like Debbie, I had never heard of this treat. I love a fresh, chewy meringue cookie so when I saw this bar had a layer of meringue on top, I knew I had found my recipe.
This bar starts with a cookie crust layered with marshmallows and chocolate chips. I added a bit more of the goodies because I felt the entire bottom should be covered with marshmallow and chocolate goodness.
Then you spread a layer of brown sugar sweetened meringue on top…
and bake!
You get a delicious, cookie bar studded with chocolate and marshmallow, topped with a chewy, crackly, caramel flavored layer that melt in your mouth.
What a great bar!
Easy, tasty, and with pantry friendly ingredients.
For this recipe, you will find it here, on Debbie's blog.
If you would like to join us and participate in The Secret Recipe Club, you can find all the information here.
Big thanks to Amanda, our fearless leader for all the hard work she does for this club. Thanks Amanda!

i have always stayed with...
i have always stayed with family so i am not a good source in this matter. however, i believe there are plenty of motels, hotels, and 'paradores'. PARADORES are an excellent way to see the entire island. if you are a tourist and plan on experiencing puerto rico inside and out, then you MUST stay at PARADORES. the tourism industry assigns this label of 'parador' only to hotels that meet a criteria of culture, character, local-sense, and intimacy. each one throughout the island is different, they are often old restored houses or government buildings...so take your pick, the mountains, the beach, or both. i highly recommend these PARADORES, they are better than staying in a luxury, expensive resort packed with tourists where you wont learn anything. you can pick up a list of their location at the international airport in San Juan. There is a closer airport on the west coast on the town of Aguadilla, but i have never flown from there.

Penthouse Beachfront Apartment: 2-3 BR, 2.5 Bath Duplex Penthouse Condo
Heriberto is a very good business man, and when I had a problem with paypal which was my fault, he took time out of his busy schedule to assist us. Whenever we had any questions or issues, he was friendly and helpful.
It's close to all the surfing beaches too so if you surf, you will love it, and even if you don't you can go down and watch all the surfers. We loved that part.
My opinion is this: why go to a hotel where you get one room, one bath and very little amenities, when for about the same price you can get a full two floors of space and privacy? You can always visit the resorts for dinner or a drink and sit by their pools or meet people.. and then come home to a beautiful roomy condo.
We will rent from Heriberto again if we can, and very soon! You should too - contact him and tell him Toni Marie sent you.
There is an elevator it worked all 12 days we were there, no problems at all.
You get lots of living space, two full bedrooms with an optional third bedroom, two and a half baths, kitchen, living room, family room, a desktop computer with high speed internet (and wifi), penthouse rooftop deck and balconies.
The first floor has two bedrooms which are much roomier than they appear in the photos. There is a full kitchen, with pots, pans, and a fridge that works. If you wanted to keep your costs low here, you could cook all your meals quite easily. The living room is comfortable and spacious, but it is the balcony with the fantastic view of the beach and ocean that really makes this place so wonderful.
The beds are very COMFORTABLE. There are bunkbeds in the second bedroom with a full bed on bottom twin on top.
There is a floaty for pool, beach chairs, buckets and beach toys, plenty of beach towels, everything you would think of that you might need.
There is a spiral staircase with a locking gate in front, in case you have small children you don't want running up and down. Once you get used to the spiral staircase, it is easy to navigate, and fun. This takes you to the roof top floor which is wonderful for entertaining, there is a nice bar set up, a bbq grill and another gorgeous ocean view balcony.
There are large flat screen TV's in the master bedroom and living room and upstairs top floor lounge family room with many channels.
The master bathroom is a full bath and there is a second full bath in the hallway. Upstairs is another half bath with sink and toilet.
Behind the kitchen is a stacked washer dryer which is a life saver with all the beach towels and bath towels and clothing you might want to wash.
The pool is private and very well landscaped and clean. There is a cabana with bathrooms and outside showers to wash off the sand. It's the best of both worlds, resort-style living with all the conveniences of home.

Rincon Beach Resort: Secluded Paradise
The scenery there is very nice. It rained almst every day until 3pm or so. There is only one restaurant that isnt very busy, but the food is good. It seemed very desloate when I was there. The town of Rincon was very desloate too. It was very beautiful though. Mangos on the ground everywhere. Nonight life on the resort, there was a little bar across the street playing loud music, but it was dead too!
The pool was medium size, and very close to the beach. Its probably the best place to stay in rincon. Rincon by the Sea is probably a little more happening though...its closer to town.

Working In a NATO UnitDecember 30, 2010 | Master Sergeant William Howell
Happy Holidays to everyone, I hope that you had a great Christmas and that you have a better New Year! Today I want to tell you how it is to work in a NATO unit. If you did not know the Army has personnel stationed in Brunssum, The Netherlands and the post is called the Joint Forces Center. There is only a couple of Army units here, such as mine which is the Allied Forces North Battalion (AFNORTH) and it is part of the US ARMY NATO Brigade (stationed in Heidleberg, Germany). I have a company of about 85 personnel and it is spread over four different countries (Norway, Poland, Germany, Netherlands). Most of my Soldiers work on what is called the International side, meaning they work for NATO and interact with all 28 NATO countries as they all have personnel stationed here as well. My company HQs is called the National Delegation as we do not work for NATO, we are here to support the personnel who work for NATO. It is very difficult to run a company like that as I have no control of most of my personnel. We have to ask NATO for permission to allow them to attend training, schools, and just about everything else. It is challenging to say the least, with my personnel in Norway, Poland and Germany we hardly ever get to see or interact with them. This is done mostly by phone and emails. Working here is challenging, but it is fun as well, the area here is beautiful and most of the Netherland speak English which makes it nice. My personnel on the International side get to work with other countries and learn about thier cultures as well, so it is good for them as well. So, if you ever get a chance to be stationed here, take the assignment, it will be a good one. I hope that you have gained a little better insight on how working in a NATO unit is. Happy New Year!

An accused child molester in Post Falls is being allowed to live across the street from his alleged victims and the children's mom is outraged by the judge's leniency.
Harry Meador, 82, is charged with three felony counts of sexual abuse of a child. He's accused of molesting the woman's three daughters who are all under the age of 10.
Meador is being allowed to live just feet away from the girls he's accused of abusing.
"He seemed to be a great man, my kids became very close to (him) instantly," their mother said.
Their mother said in the beginning Meador was like a grandpa to her kids.
"It hurts to know he would do this and I don't understand it," the victims' mother said.
Meador was arrested last Friday; in court Monday his bail was set at $50,000.
"It hurt bad and knowing the detective had talked to the judge, and explained to him, please try the recommended six figures, and make it harder for him as well and then he still granted it," the victims' mother said.
"That's relatively high for some cases but for sex offenses they seem to be higher," Post Falls police Detective Dave Beck said.
Meador quickly paid the $5,000 needed to bond out of jail. Beck said that's not usually the case.
"More times than not a bond is set high enough where the suspect or alleged offender has difficulty bonding out," he said.
So for now he's free to live in his own home, across from his alleged victims, until this case goes to trial.
"I'm pretty sure he was across the street today, he came over with two of his family members, opened the blinds," the victims' mother said.
It's standard in Kootenai County if a suspect bonds out of jail he or she still has to remain at least 300 feet away from the alleged victim. But in this case, since they live so close, it would mean Meador would have to move. It's what prosecutors and the mother of the three girls wanted but the judge ruled Meador only had to be just 50 feet away from his alleged victims, meaning he can live in his home if he chooses.
"He's caused them all this pain and hurt and he's not getting anything, they have told me it's going to be a year of trial," the victims' mother said.
The Post Falls Police Department is still investigating the case. When asked if there could be more potential victims, they said they could be conducting more interviews. The judge who presided over Meador's court appearance did not return calls for comment on his ruling.

Mary Shomon sought medical help for a number of maladies that seemed completely unrelated, tried to deal with other symptoms that seemed merely bothersome and wondered if she simply imagined a few.
"I started out really frustrated," Shomon, a 38-year-old consultant, writer and mother of three, said in a telephone interview from Kensington, Md. "I would say (to a doctor) here's the problem. And they'd say, 'Take this pill, and you'll be back to normal.' And I wasn't back to normal.
"I had doctors sending me for MRIs, having specialist (appointments) and tests. I had very bad headaches. My hair was falling out; it got all kind of wiry and strange. I was finding it extremely difficult to lose weight despite doing things that normally worked for me. I was feeling kind of fuzzy-brained, like you're not sure what's going on, you're not as sharp.
"I kept being extra-tired. I was sleeping eight hours and still being so tired I wanted to go back to bed for a nap at 11 a.m. I was having periods of feeling really down that I would probably categorize as some depression; a (recurring) day or so where I would just look at the world with a grimace, that classic, PMS, I-hate-the-world kind of thing - very bad energy."
Shomon said months of reciting her ambiguous symptoms - weight gain, fatigue, blue moods - often resulted in a diagnosis that she was "stressed, depressed and PMS'd," until doctors did a blood test to determine her thyroid gland activity. Located in the neck, the thyroid gland regulates metabolism, energy and calorie use and affects mood, fertility and other body functions.
The 1995 blood test rounded all her symptoms up under a collective cause, hypothyroidism, a disorder that Shomon wrote about in "Living Well with Hypothyroidism: What Your Doctor Doesn't tell You . . . That You Need to Know." The book, published in March, was in its second printing within two weeks.
Hypothyroidism, most commonly determined to be Hasmimoto's thyroiditis, denotes an underactive thyroid. A thyroid gland that produces too much thyroid hormone causes hyperthyroidism, usually determined to be Grave's Disease.
A Feb. 28 Colorado-based study reported as many as 13 million Americans suffer from undiagnosed thyroid problems, double previous estimates, Shomon said. And, estimates reveal that 1 in 20 women, mostly in their 30s and beyond, have some kind of thyroid disorder, according to Florida endocrinologist Jack Baskin, M.D., past president of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists, in a March 1999 issue of Prevention magazine.
Men also can be affected with thyroid difficulties, but it is less common, Amarillo endocrinologist Dr. Ken Brantley said.
"We see a pretty good percentage of patients who have some form of thyroid diseases - high and low (gland activity)," Brantley said. "The symptoms are pretty nonspecific - fatigue, people who just feel bad. In some ways, people have a tendency to sort of ignore that (type of symptom). Hypothyroidism is probably more common."
Brantley said she sees more patients with overactive thyroids than underactive, probably because an underactive thyroid generally is easily treated with a daily hormone supplement, a treatment many physicians handle themselves, rather than referring such patients to specialists.
Patients who have hypothyroidism most often complain of fatigue, intolerance for cold and weight gain. But weight gain can be an unreliable symptom for thyroid disorder diagnosis because it can occur in many other instances, Brantley said. Other symptoms can include constipation, a thinning of the eyebrows, changes in menstruation, a low sex drive and more.
Dr. William Biggs, a colleague of Brantley, suggests patients keep a record of their complaints to take with them to a doctor's appointment. People often forget to mention things that, combined with other symptoms, might help narrow a diagnosis, he said.
"It's helpful to have a full list of symptoms that a person wants to report," Biggs said. "If somebody came to me just asking about constipation, (a thyroid disorder) probably wouldn't be the first thing that came to my mind. I think it's always helpful to provide the doctor with as much information as possible."
Knowledge of family medical history also is important, Brantley said.
"There is definitely some tendency for these sort of things to run in the family," she said.
Shomon believes some doctors are reluctant to order thyroid tests for patients based on the unspecific symptoms involved. She bases the belief not only on her own case, but on the cases of people who have contacted her as guide of the About.com Web portal,
http://thyroid.about.com and as editor of print and e-mail newsletters on the topic sent regularly to about 20,000 subscribers.
But Biggs and Brantley said they've seen no reluctance on the part of local doctors to test patients for thyroid problems.
"Sometimes it is difficult to diagnose, although most physicians around town have been pretty good about screening for it," Brantley said. "For most people, their doctor will probably be very willing to order the test."
As the February study shows, the thyroid disorder is prevalent, she said.
"I think it's one of those conditions that, the more we check for it, the more we're likely to find," Brantley said.
Left untreated, an underactive thyroid disorder can raise your cholesterol, increasing your risk of heart disease as well, the March 1999 Prevention article said. An overactive thyroid can lead to heart problems and osteoporosis, the story said.
Shomon's About.com thyroid page contains links to information, a bulletin board for message posting, and a chat room, and Shomon said she answers 700 questions a week from site visitors. She also has another Web site,
www.thyroid-info.com, where Internet users can get more information about her free "Sticking Out Our Necks" e-mail newsletter. Web surfers also can subscribe to the e-mail newsletter by sending an e-mail to her a
Shomon also will send a free issue of the print version of "Sticking Out Our Necks" to Amarillo Globe-News readers who send a stamped (55 cents), self-addressed, No. 10 size envelope to: "Sticking Out Our Necks," Free Issue for Amarillo Globe-News Readers, P.O. Box 0385, Palm Harbor, FL 34682.

More like when naruto is fighting .. you already have an idea of who's going to win but with sasuke your always there till the last an final move because his fights can go either way jus because of how he fights somtimes lol.
Yes sure you know that,when you watch sasuke fighting you are always sure that he will be okay,but there are a lot of fights when Naruto gets his ass kicked
ok so im laying some facts on the table
Sasuke has proven he is very strong fighting with the Raikage and co.
im not saying he was going to win, noone can say that but it looked ide say 50/50 im sorry if that offends anyone , i know raikage was going to maybe lose his leg with that last attack and who knows my that gigantic raikage leg wouldve hit him so hard it wouldve left a crater
so going in there head 1st against those kages was a mistake on sasuskes part
funny theory which im just joking people , danzo leaves tobi appears wat , tobi/danzo ( tobi is danzo's MS technique permenant kage bunshin )
Madara telling RAIKAGE stop whining PRICELESS
tshuikage if spelled right is 100 percent yoda

madara trained itachi, who was basically his enemy and sasuke said that his susano'o is incomplete. i think that there is the possibility that madara trains sasuke.
i think madara explains the moons eye plan to convince the kages that akatsuki doesnt plans to use the bijuus power against their countries, to undermine the idea of an alliance of the countries against the danger akatsuki.
i dont think that he's there to kill the kages, otherwise he would have attacked tsuchikage the moment tsuchikage freed himself from zetsu.
I can see that the worst thing for and the akaskui is an allience but maybe he is turning everyone against the leaf look Danzou running away and the two strongest akaskui memebers are from Kohnoa it is probablly not true but it would be very intresting.

yea that could be very possible sageD an if it happens that would be horrific seeing as how konoha shinobi arent that strong except for naruto,kakashi, an maybe shikamaru,neji, and gai.
on the other hand i cant wait to see naruto in action again lol who can fight on par with him now??? who can withstand windrelease spiraling rasengan? Its going to be awsome seeing who kishi puts infront of naruto now that he's more powerful than the 4th and jaraiya.

yea you're rite dude im ready to see naruto again anyways.. also i would like to see kakashi fight again too it seems he's been hiding some new techs as we saw with him fighting deva pain and the robot pain.
someone said that madara,sasuke,and zetsu could beat all 5 kages hahah .... you're rite too. madara's a beast alone dude an if zetsu can replenish chakra then ... well the kages would all die before killing zetsu.

reuslt is that there is no proof S06P created the earth's moon
lets analyze it
when pein created the moon he wan't in good shape
i mean if pein==== 100% chakra
then he might have created moon 8-10 times larger than , what he actual made
we also know that so6p was way much stronger than anyone born in naruto world
so if so6p had created the moon with his full power
then he might had created it around 30-40 times more than what actually pein produced
hence there is no way moon is created by any person even in ninja world
actually so6p did created a moon
then where is the moon ? which place he chose to make moon of ?
where is the crater is ?
if anyone suffer that massive destruction or development
but what SO6P had created can't be matched with actual moon
hence it called or known as "EYE OF MOON"
OOOOKKKAYYY who the hell is SO6P?????
everybody saying hail Zetsu when he really didnt do Sh!t...Wow played dead....any sensor can hide there chakra and lay on the floor

keep believing so and u'll be flamed......
bah @@@@@@
tobi was the name taken b4 madara could proclaim himself... so as to remain hidden in the shadows of akatsuki......
DAMN if i got the mask i would too wear it and i become UCHIHA MADARA .........
this chapter was awesome and im glad sasuke had zetsu on his side lol. there is no way sasuke can fight all kages back after back without chakra replenishing
I think there'll be some distraction and Sasuke will run away seeing he's getting his ass raped, Zetsu wouldn't be too hard to take down and Madara hasn't fought yet so probably won't still.
naruto in sage mode still isnt stronger than the fourth he will surpass him when he fully master's the nine tail fox
I've read a lot of posts that state that 466's fight scenes were great. I thought it was okay, but not great. I liked it more when the Raikage was mixing it up with Sucksuke. Chojuro seemed so girly in this chapter too. First of all he needs to get a better tailor, and second, he seemed to have doubted his abilities. He still looks wet behind the ears. Can someone please change his diapers and put him to bed?
But the reason I think Madara is holding Sasuke is because he's going to hypnotize him. – Ace
I agree. Madara wants to use Sucksuke to not only fight and beat Naruto, but to hook him up to that big statue. But I wonder now if Madara's impatient enough to put Itachi's eyes into Sucksuke and then hook him up to the statue?
First off the Mizukage is a bad-ass! Everyone can agree that had it not been for Zetsu and Madara, Sasuke would be a dead man right now at her hands. Look at how she began melting the bones of the SUSANNO! Even at full strength, Sasuke would have had a real tough time against the Mizukage's TWO Kekkei Genkai: lava release and boil release. Man sasuke would've been toast. – cjoe7
The only reason that Mizucougar beat Sucksuke is because Sucksuke ran out of chakra. He wasted too much time fighting the Raikage, Kazekage, and the samurais. When Zetsu gave Sucksuke some chakra he was able to punch a hole in the wall. Had he had more chakra he'd probably punch the Mizu through the wall as well.
kishi why all this characters have all this cool jutsus and genjetsu and naruto some lame ones unless u haves some suprise for all of us I'm tired of seen kagenbushins and rasengan – chinin12
Amen to that!! Now that things are starting to become clearer now I hope to see Naruto's using new jutsus. He may be able to use his father's flash technique or Jiraiya's Fire Sealing Method. We can all agree that Sucksuke has gotten a lot more dangerous and since Sage Mode allows Naruto to have almost limitless chakra without having to use the Kyuubi, we will see a lot of new moves soon.
kishi has made sasuke as darth vadar and im sure that at the end he will turn good – nirav_92
Yeah, Vadar also died at the end.
I predict that Madara will tell them his "Moon's Eye Plan" and then swirl out of there. Karen may be taken captive by the summit kages or the other two Sucksuke sidekicks will come in and break her out. Naruto will show up late and face the kages or he'll hear what happened and open mouthed will think something stupid like, "Oh, Sucksuke – you've gone to far!!" We'll probably go back to the Killerbee story/arc.

467: Hesitation
(Madara Scene)
Madara: Since I�ll come clean about myself, I guess I won�t needing this�(he puts Sasuke on the floor and takes off his mask, revealing his face) Zetsu, take him. (White Zetsu grabs Sasuke and disappears with him)
(Naruto Scene)
(Yamato has fixed the roof; Naruto wanders in the room; Kakashi and Yamato are sitted, staring at Naruto)
Kakashi: You need to calm down. Since Madara left, you didn�t stop wandering.
Naruto: How can I be calm when that guy is plotting something with Sasuke?! We need to find Sasuke before Madara makes his move!
Yamato: Naruto, you know Sasuke won�t comply with that. Like he said, he severed all the bonds he had iN THE PAST
Naruto: But not me! I�ll find Sasuke and bring him back home, even if it takes my whole life to do it!
Yamato: Naruto�
Naruto: First, we got to go to the summit and talk with the Kage to forgive Sasuke!
Kakashi: Do you even listened to the Raikage? It�s not their affair, so they won�t listen, or even worse, they might find themselves offended and war might rage in. Besides, we already are in the risk of being considered missing-nin, we got to be careful.
Yamato: Kakashi-senpai is right, Naruto. (sounds of fight are heard) What�s this? (everyone rushes to the window; they see Danzou and his guards from afar, against Ao)
Kakashi: Danzou? What he�s doing here, fighting?
Yamato: Something�s wrong� (Naruto jumps from the window to the ground)
Yamato & Kakashi: Naruto! (they follow him)
(Danzou Scene)
(Danzou and his guards are close to Ao; Ao is injured and on his knees)
Danzou: Any last words?
Ao: Even if I die, don�t think you�ll get away with it. The Mizukage will hunt you down� and the Raikage, too�
Danzou: Hmph, what a disgrace� (wood sprouts from the ground and restrains Danzou and his guards)
Danzou: (thinking) Mokuton? That means� (Naruto approaches with Kakashi and Yamato; still thinking) So, Sai betrayed me. I�ll dispose of him later.
Naruto: What�s happening here?
Ao: (thinking) His chakra is out of the charts. Is he� the Kyuubi�s Jinchuuriki? (talking) The Hokage was mind controlling the moderator of the Summit and, in top of that, he ran away when the Akatsuki invaded the building.
Naruto: Akatsuki?!
Ao: Yes� Uchiha Sasuke was the one.
Kakashi: Oh boy�
Naruto: We got to go there, before the other Kages kill him!
Kakashi: Naruto, please, don�t rush things.
Naruto: But�!
Kakashi: You go there and then what? What you�ll do?
Yamato: Kakashi-senpai is right, we need to think before we act.
Ao: Excuse me, but the Hokage must return to the summit, to answer for his actions.
Danzou: Hmpf, again with the accusations...
Ao: Since you have such a formidable restraining jutsu, I�d be glad if you join me, to escort the Hokage back to the Summit.
Naruto: Of course!
Yamato: It seems we don�t have a choice.
Kakashi: And, Danzou� (uncovers his sharingan) I�ll keep an eye on you.
Danzou: Hmpf� we�ll talk later about your little escapade.
Naruto: �
Kakashi: (to Ao) Can you walk?
Ao: Yes, but now� let�s return.
(Madara Scene)
Raikage: You think we�ll sit here and let you speak? (rushes towards Madara) I don�t think so! (punches Madara, but Raikage�s fist passes through him) What the hell?
Gaara: (thinking) The attack passed right though him!
Madara: Please don�t interrupt me� (he steps back; Karin tries to escape, but is stopped by Choujuurou and Akatsuchi)
Raikage: You�ll pay for what Akatsuki did to my brother!
Madara: If you listen to what I have to say, I�ll tell you what happened to your brother.
Raikage: I don�t trust you!
Shii: Raikage-sama!
Raikage: What now, Shii? Don�t you see the situation?
Shii: I know, but his chakra isn�t changing. He speaks the truth.
Raikage: What?! You got to be kidding me!
Shii: Unfortunatly, I am not.
Tsuchikage: (thinking) Since taijutsu doesn�t work with him� (speaking) Jinton: Genkai Hakuri no Jutsu! (the cube of energy engulfs Madara) Got him!
Madara: (appears behind Tsuchikage) I thought I was clear when I said �don�t interrupt me�.
Mizukage: (thinking) How did he..?
Madara: Now that I notice, the Hokage is missing� shall we wait for him?
(Naruto Scene)
(Naruto and co arrives at the outskirts of the Summit�s building)
Kakashi: Look at this mess�
Naruto: (thinking) What happened to you, Sasuke?
Kurotsuchi: (appearing from beneath the pillars ruins; thinking) Oof, for a moment there, I thought I was a goner� (Kakashi grabs her hand)
Kakashi: Are you alright?
Kurotsuchi: I think so�
Ao: You�re from Iwagakure, right? As the fight stopped?
Kurotsuchi: I don�t know, I was hidden in the pillars, watching the battle between the Raikage and Uchiha Sasuke, and that Sasuke guy destroyed the pillars, and if it wasn�t for my Underground Move Jutsu I think I would die in there!
Naruto: You know where Sasuke is?
Kurotsuchi: I think he went inside the Summit�s building.
Naruto: Let�s go!
(they enter the Summit�s room; everyone stares at them)
Tsuchikage: (thinking) Who are those two? One looks like the White Fang, the other reminds me of the Yellow Flash�
Raikage: (thinking) It�s that brat from before�
Gaara: Naruto.
Karin: (thinking) So that�s Naruto�
Madara: You sure took your sweet time, Hokage. And glad you could make it, Naruto.
Ao: (thinking) Another Sharingan user, they just keep coming�
Danzou: (thinking) His face� Madara�
Naruto: What the hell are you doing here? Where�s Sasuke?!
Madara: Sorry, but Sasuke already left the building�
Naruto: You!!!
Madara: My, my, my, don�t be so hasty. Grab a seat and listen to what I have to say�
m8 can u send me a link t o where u find that because the person will make the next one too and i will like to read that too

Well her jutsus were more supplementary/strategic than raikage's direct attacks; and she does not seem like a taijutsu inclined shinobi. She softened the wall in order to knock sasuke through and isolate him. That way she would not have to hold back using her acid mist technique.

Yeah Zetsu did own most of the people in the room especially Choujiro(spelling). But tsuchikage and mizukage got away with relative ease. Mizukage just spit a little yoton on zetsu and watched him melt, then he just kind of fell off of tsuchikage after some jutsu lol.
Tobi is a Goodboy, cough up your plan you old brat. xD
The Mizukage and Tsuchikage aren't pushovers. I think that someone actually guessed that Mizukage had two keke genkais(sp?) and could use water, fire, and earth so props to that person.
Zetsu's jutsu is very useful and I'm shocked none of the kages noticed it. What could Madara possibly gain from revealing his plans(unless he's lying again)?
Well, all those asking why Madara is suddenly bringing attention to himself, then most likely it's because he knows Konoha already figured out who he was, and the secret wasn't going to remain silent with Konoha.
The Moon's Eye Plan... Wow, we finally might learn what this is. Although, after reading other posts from the members who posted, I kinda had a thought. Ofcourse, we knew Pein was possibly an image of the Sage of 6 Paths with the 6 bodies could represent the 6 paths, which Pein even called it the 6 paths with 6 different realms. But as I was thinking about it, what made the Sage of 6 Paths so strong? Could Madara be going after this Power? And then it hit me. I don't know if it's logical or not, but it's now my belief of what Kishi is after. 6 Paths, and 5 Elements. Wind, Fire, Earth, Water, and Lightning. What if there's possibly a 6th Element? An element that was so superior, no one was able to master but the Sage who initially created it. What if the Myth of the Sage is right about the Sage sealing a demon in the moon. What if that "demon" was the only thing to have ever been able to control the 6th Element and used it for evil, and in turn, the Sage sealed him before the power was released. Or even crasier, what if the thing in the moon isn't a demon, what if it's the 6th Element, sealed from all humanity out in space, where no one can get it, but now Madara finally figured it out. Even Madara said his goal was to be complete. He could have mastered all 5 elements, and to complete himself, he needs the 6th and final one?
Crazy as it seems, I can really see this coming. The Moon's Eye... The Power of the Sage again released onto humanity, to release destruction again.
1. Madara will probably tell Raikage that his brother is fine, just to mess with him. It would mean he lost the forearm for nothing.
2. The 'Eye of the moon' plan probably has something that may once again, turn the countries against each other. So the mayhem that insues may be a part of it. He probably sent Sasuke there just to cause enough noise to make his words that much more convincing.
3. The chapter showed that the kages all have different skill sets and are powerful in different ways. I hear all these people talking about Zetsu. Did Tsuchikage look worried at all about what was going on? If it was just the two of them, Onoki of the Double scales wins in a knockout. Mizu, Rai and Kaze kage's abilities go without saying. The only one we need to see throw down is Danzo.
4. We may not see the plan next chapter. Ao vs Danzo and company remains to be seen, as well and 'The Life and Times of the Bee'..............

This is a guy that you can trust and rely on for all of your internet marketing needs. Doug Hann, Royal Roofing & Remodeling[/quote]

This weekend marks the kick-off of the Virtual Team In Training summer season. We had our first conference call yesterday and heard from our coach, Joe English. We also start our 1/2 marathon training, which this week consists of three "run" days totaling approximately 8.5 miles and 2 cross-training/weights days, but will only get longer and tougher from here on out. I am really hoping we have a short winter and a nice, warm spring filled with sunshine. (A girl can dream, right?)
I am nervous, but I am also super-excited and am already looking forward to our race weekend in San Diego in June!
Remember these two cuties? Peyton and Ezra are both my personal honorees, two adorable little kids battling the nastiness of leukemia.
I am going to continue to celebrate my 31st birthday this entire year because I am convinced it will be one of the BEST YEARS EVER, so for every 10 donations ($31+) to my personal fundraising goal, I will have a drawing from those who donated and give away a $50 gift card to Amazon, Target, or one of my new faves, The Healthy Pantry (winner's choice).
HUGE thanks to those who already donated:
Thea Rudland
Steph Enos, for the beautiful jewelry that I will be selling to raise money!
Erin Pirkl
Christy Mensi
Becki Barnhart
Mindi Parker
Nancy Collins
Beth Fletcher
Dale Ann & Danny Hoyt

Why donate?
The need is critical: An estimated 912,938 people in the United States are living with, or are in remission from, leukemia, Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma or
myeloma. Every four minutes, someone new is diagnosed with blood cancer. Every 10 minutes, someone dies.
Leukemia causes more deaths than any other cancer among children under the age of
20. Lymphomas are the most common blood cancers and incidence increases with age.
The survival rate for myeloma is only 37.1 percent.
Businesses – The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans has HUGE advertising opportunities for you. Want to see what we are offering you in exchange for your donation? Email me for a copy of our media kit.
Thank you. So, so much.
