It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I have been running in the same brand of trainers (the Asics 2000 series) for years without any trouble but recently have had trouble with a recurring blister on my right instep. No idea why this has started to happen but need some advice because the problem is getting quite bad. No amount of plasters or padding seem to help.
Anyone got any ideas?
as has been said, good running socks - also compeed blister plasters are excellent. They stay on very well, and are great both as a preventitive and when you already have blisters.
Also If you have recently upgraded to a different model of the asics it might just be that they don't suit you anymore.
Some people harden their feet, others like to keep them softer. I'm in the soft camp and use tape and vaseline. Not sure if the blisters would be worse on hardened skin!
get some of this, it works for blisters on hands from rowing
Had the same problem with my 2120's, I have just changed to a neutral shoe Saucony Jazz II and now i only get a blister on the right foot !!
I was told the stability 2120 was probably the cause as i didn't need the support part of the shoe and this caused the rubbing ............... well it's half worked.
Always been prone to blisters in that area anyway to be honest and theres no real pattern to it, tried sock changes to no avail I usually just live with it and hope i have a good day.
I recently had awful blisters on my insteps too. This was due to orthotics for overpronation. I now use surgical spirit on my feet to harden them up a bit and this seems to have helped enormously.
Hope your feet get better soon.
Thanks to everyone who sent in suggestions on how to stop this problem of blisters on the instep. I gave running a rest for a few days then ran with it strapped up until it finally healed. I tried a few of the suggestions and tonight I tried the one where someone sugested putting vaseline on my instep before I set off and (touch wood) this seems to have worked a treat.
Thank you all - keep on running

Do you feel stuck in your career and life? Do you have desires that you've spent your whole life wishing you could focus on and thrive? Do you find that the path your life is on is exhausting and no fun?
Life is far too short to waste it stuck in careers that go nowhere, to be living lives that aren't fulfilling, and being filled with unhappiness.

The problem is that many individuals are unaware of how to take control of their life, change their careers, and do something positive in their life. Other individuals fear that if they step out of their comfort zone and make a big change, they'll fail and end up with more problems than they originally faced, whether that be financial problems, their new career didn't work out, or they did not find the happiness they were wishing to find.

How Awakening Artistry Began
Tama Kieves, a graduate from Harvard University, was working as a successful lawyer. From an outside perspective, anyone would think that she had everything in life: a good education, intelligence, success, and a good career. But through all her achievements and milestones, there was one thing missing: happiness in life.
One day, Tama woke up and realized that despite the success in her life, she simply could not go another day living out her daily routines that brought her not fulfillment. With her new found perspective on life, Tama quit her career and went on to follow her dreams and do something she was truly passionate about. Like everyone who has made the leap to quit a career in pursuit of something more fulfilling, Tama was filled with all the questions that anyone going through a big life change asks: What am I doing? Will I fail? How will this transition change my life?
Tama came to the realization that if she was successful in a career she didn't want to be in, how successful could she be doing something she actually wanted to do? After this realization, Tama has dedicated her life to following her passions and helping others to achieve their goals.

Are Today's Average Ministers Qualified to Cast Out Demons?
Originally posted on Oct. 3, 2011
This issue is not discussed much in an era of ministers who are primarily focused on making money from their ministries and keeping up with celebrities in the world. Back in the day, when African Americans were not ashamed to have real church and there was not too much diversity, casting out demons in deliverance services was in the average black church. Ministers did not quiet down congregants from praising God and allowing demons to cease in their churches. In today's church, prosperity ministries are more popular and to cast out demons would not be appropriate in their ministries for a number of reasons.

Washington, D.C. 20530

Channing Phillips (202)514-6933
Washington, D.C. - A former U.S. Department of Education Program Specialist, Ramon Rodriguez, has pleaded guilty to accepting $10,000 from the president of a company that had been awarded a contract from a Department of Education grantee to install computers at schools in California and Oregon, U.S. Attorney Kenneth L. Wainstein, John Higgins, Inspector General for the Office of Inspector General for the United States Department of Education, and Joseph Persichini, Jr., Acting Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI's Washington Field Office, announced today.
Rodriguez, 76, of Alexandria, Virginia, entered a plea of guilty today in U.S. District Court before the Honorable Royce C. Lamberth to the charge of offering, giving, soliciting, or receiving a gratuity. Pursuant to the terms of the plea, Rodriguez could receive a maximum of two years of imprisonment when he is sentenced before the Honorable Royce C. Lamberth on October 20, 2006.
"There is no room in our government for those who abuse their positions for private gain," stated U.S. Attorney Wainstein. "By accepting cash from a private contractor, this public official compromised the integrity of the Department of Education's grantee contracting process and violated his duty as a public servant."
"Accountability applies to everyone," said John P. Higgins, Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Education. "We will continue to aggressively pursue those who seek to enrich themselves at the expense of our nation's students and taxpayers, especially those in a position of trust like Mr. Rodriguez."
According to the statement of the offense agreed to by Rodriguez and the government, between January 1, 2003 and July 1, 2005, Rodriguez was employed as an Education Program Specialist in the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services at the United States Department of Education's office in Washington, D.C. In his capacity as Program Specialist, Rodriguez was responsible for monitoring numerous grants worth millions of dollars awarded by the United States Department of Education to educational institutions that provide services to the deaf and hearing-impaired community. Grantees were required to provide project updates to Rodriguez and to obtain his approval for various aspects of their grant projects, including, in some cases, the expenditure of grant funds.
In November 2004, the Department of Education's Office of the Inspector General began investigating Rodriguez after receiving a complaint alleging that Rodriguez was attempting to influence a grantee to hire his girlfriend as an employee or consultant through a private company and that Rodriguez was friends with the president of this company.
Investigators subsequently learned that Rodriguez had tried to influence a grantee in California to hire his girlfriend and to enter into a contract for grant-related services with the private company. Rodriguez was the Project Officer in charge of reviewing the grantee's expenditures and ensuring its compliance with regulations.
In September 2005, Rodriguez agreed to speak to agents from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of the Inspector General and the FBI's Washington Field Office. Rodriguez told the agents that the private company's president had hired his girlfriend as the Research Director for a contract that the company had negotiated with the grantee in January 2005. Rodriguez stated that he had consulted with the private company in a "broad sense," providing the company's president with ideas for strategic planning, brainstorming, and marketing.
Rodriguez admitted that the company's president had told him that he would be able to pay Rodriguez for services he had provided over the past couple of years if the company received the contract with the California grantee. The company's president subsequently paid him $10,000 in cash in two separate installments between January and May 2005 for services Rodriguez had provided to the company over the past 25 years. The installments corresponded to the installment payments the company had received pursuant to its contract with the grantee.
Rodriguez admitted to the agents that he tried to shield the company's payments by requesting that he be paid in cash and not by check. Rodriguez stated that neither Department of Education officials or supervisors nor the grantee's officials were aware of the cash payments by the company to him.
In announcing the guilty plea, United States Attorney Wainstein, Inspector General Higgins, and Assistant Director in Charge Persichini commended the outstanding efforts of Special Agent Ronald Wormsley, Jr. of the Department of Education's Inspector General's Office and Special Agent Eric Parris of the Washington Field Office of the FBI. They also thanked Assistant United States Attorney Kim Herd, who prosecuted the case.

When masturbating to digital pornographic material, you continuously come across thumbnails of other videos that appear to be more appealing than the current one you are watching. This continues on until you suffer from chafing on your penis and have trouble masturbating for a long period of time.
Yeah...I jerk trapped so hard last night, I don't think I'll be able to masturbate for a month.
by HutchTheVeryYoungGirlLover May 09, 2011
When one is minding one's genitals pleasurably (i.e. masturbating) while using pornographic material, and one wants to "complete" (i.e. jizz) but it is in the back of the mind of that person that he/she could always find a better video to complete on. This continues in an ongoing cycle until your genitals finally give up and end up being temporarily or permanently scarred depending on the person.
Dammit, man I won't be able to masturbate for a month! This is the last time I'll fall for the jerktrap.
by RespawnWatcher May 14, 2011
When your masturbating while using pornagraphic material and you want to finish but in the back of your head you know you can find a better video. So you end up watching multiple videos because the thumbnail looks 10 times better than the last.
Jimmy only had a short amount of time to mess around, before he knew it he was in a jerk trap and chafed himself so badly he couldn't mess around for a month.

McClatchy: IRS targeting of conservatives may go beyond tax-exempt applications
posted at 8:41 am on May 31, 2013 by Ed Morrissey
Could the situation at the IRS get any worse? McClatchy joins CBS News in postulating that the scandal may well expand to more than just applications for tax-exempt status. Both news agencies are starting to take complaints about predatory and punitive audits and other actions and put them into a very ugly pattern — and ask some very difficult questions of the Obama administration:
While the developing scandal over the targeting of conservatives by the tax agency has largely focused to date on its scrutiny of groups with words such as "tea party" or "patriot" in their names, these examples suggest the government was looking at a broader array of conservative groups and perhaps individuals. Their collective experiences at a minimum could spread skepticism about the fairness of a powerful agency that should be above reproach and at worst could point to a secret political vendetta within the government against conservatives.
The emerging stories from real people raise questions about whether the IRS scrutiny extended beyond applicants for tax-exempt status and whether individuals who donated to these tax-exempt organizations or to conservative causes also were targeted.
Former IRS leaders have apologized for inappropriate scrutiny of conservative organizations. They haven't to date, however, divulged who developed the criteria, how they were developed or when and how they extended to groups associated with conservative causes that didn't have "tea party," "patriot" or similar catchwords in their names.
Widening congressional investigations and federal lawsuits are likely to reveal more about the scope and intent of the inappropriate treatment of conservative groups by the IRS. The House Ways and Means Committee plans a hearing Tuesday to allow victims to testify for the first time. In earlier hearings, one IRS official pleaded the Fifth to avoid answering questions.
McClatchy includes the case of Catherine Engelbrecht, which CBS News' Sharyl Attkisson co-reported yesterday. That case, of course, goes far beyond the IRS; Engelbrecht's business got harassed by the FBI, ATF, and OSHA as well, which would mean coordination far above the Treasury Department. They also include the case of an anti-abortion group that was told they couldn't picket Planned Parenthood locations if they wanted to keep their exemption, and a Nebraska veteran who got hassled in an IRS audit over his donations to his church once he began donating to conservative causes.
That may end up being the undercard next week, however. The House Oversight Committee will hold hearings over the next two weeks to take testimony from the low-level employees in Cincinnati that Lois Lerner and her former bosses Douglas Shulman and Steven Miller tried to turn into scapegoats:
House investigators will interview four Internal Revenue Service employees over the next two weeks, POLITICO has learned.
The House Ways and Means and Oversight committees hope the four front-line employees from the agency's Cincinnati office will help lawmakers better understand how the IRS targeting of conservative groups first began.
A committee aide declined to name the employees to be interviewed. But House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) said earlier this month he wants the IRS to make available five employees for transcribed interviews including John Shafer, a screening group manager, Gary Muthert, a screener in the tax-exempt division, Liz Hofacre, a former case coordinator from April to October 2010, and Joseph Herr, a former advocacy group manager.
What will be the likelihood that these five will fall on swords and swear that no one told them to target these groups? I'd put the odds on the low side for that outcome.
John Eastman wants a closer look at an already-known outrage in this scandal, too (via Instapundit):
In March of 2012 the Human Rights Campaign published a confidential tax return of the National Organization for Marriage, which was immediately republished byThe Huffington Post and other liberal news media outlets. The HRC and NOM are the leading national groups on opposing sides of the fight over gay marriage. HRC wants to redefine marriage to make it genderless, while NOM wishes to preserve marriage as the union of one man and one woman.
My organization was not the only conservative-linked political group or business that appears to have faced shady actions from IRS employees. ProPublica reported this week that the IRS handed over to them confidential documents of nine conservative organizations whose applications for non-profit status were still pending. Among them: Crossroads GPS, a key group backing Mitt Romney's presidential campaign.
Our case was particularly egregious because the IRS leak of confidential information fed directly into an ongoing political battle. For months before March 2012, the pro-gay marriage HRC had been demanding that my group, NOM, publicly identify its major donors, something that NOM and many other non-profits refuse to do. The reason is simple. In the past, gay marriage advocates have used such information to launch campaigns of intimidation against traditional marriage supporters. …
At this stage, nobody is accusing the White House or the Obama re-election campaign of illegal activity. But there is a serious question about whether there was communication or possible collusion between the IRS and the HRC, and if there was, whether anyone at the White House or the Obama re-election campaign was involved.
It is imperative that congressional investigators get to the bottom of the issue. If the IRS can get away with leaking NOM's confidential tax return to its chief political opponent, then no taxpayer is safe from political retribution by the federal government.
The retribution part has already been established. We need to know who ordered it, and how that information got networked.

NEW HAVEN -- This time, it's city attorneys asking the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene in a lawsuit involving claims of raced-based discrimination in the city Fire Department.
On Wednesday, the city filed a petition asking the nation's highest court to take on -- and dismiss -- a lawsuit filed by Firefighter Michael Briscoe, who claims longstanding promotional practices had a disparate impact on minorities and violated his constitutional rights. He's seeking retroactive promotion from an exam that also was a focus of a Supreme Court decision two years ago. This story was first reported by the New Haven Independent.
"We'll have to see if the Supreme Court has had enough of the 2003 Fire Department's lieutenant test," David Rosen, Briscoe's attorney, said Wednesday.
City lawyers, in essence, are seeking clarification from the high court on this question: Can the city be sued for doing precisely what its attorneys say the Supreme Court instructed it to do in 2009 in the landmark Ricci vs DeStefano case.
The petition contends, in the Briscoe lawsuit, a 2011 federal appeals court decision "flagrantly contravenes" the Supreme Court ruling two years earlier and exposes the city to legal liability for "implementing the very remedies" the high court imposed in Ricci two years earlier.
Indeed, if the case were accepted, it would be the second time in three years that attorneys representing the city will argue before the high court about the same contested promotional exams, albeit with different legal angles.
"The city continues to believe that the certification of the 2003 promotional exams as required by the Supreme Court order should not result in any liability," said city Corporation Counsel Victor Bolden. "The court in no uncertain terms said the certification should not result in liability."
That matter is up for interpretation in federal courts and dates back nearly nine years.
In 2003, the city gave two exams for fire lieutenant and captain. Months later, results were tossed after city officials voiced concern the results might violate federal law because black candidates scored disproportionately poorly. Instead, 20 mainly white firefighters sued and, after a protracted legal battle, won a landmark Supreme Court decision in June 2009. The court concluded the city improperly threw out the exams and discriminated against and ordered the promotion of white firefighters.
Then, in November 2009, Briscoe, who is black and finished first on the oral portion of the test but out of contention for promotion because of a low written score, filed suit making the civil rights claim city officials say they sought to avoid by scuttling the tests. He argued the city for years engaged in discrimination against minorities by counting the oral section of exams for only 40 percent of the final score when, he argued, it was the better barometer of skills and abilities.
A federal judge threw out Briscoe's lawsuit in 2010. On appeal, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit reinstated it.
The city petitioned the decision to the Supreme Court. A decision on whether the Supreme Court will accept the case could happen within the next 90 days.
Adding to the legal drama, former legal adversaries could end up on the same side opposing the Briscoe case. Karen Torre, attorney for the 20 firefighter who won the last Supreme Court decision against the city, filed a motion to intervene in the Ricci case. Torre said while both she and city officials are seeking the dismissal of the Briscoe, she plans to advance other legal defenses she believes the city can't or won't pursue for "political reasons."
She also plans to attempt to challenge the constitutionality of a provision of the 1964 federal civil rights law on which the city relied in throwing out the test results.
Rosen said the law helped reduce racial segregation and promoted sexual equality across the country.
"Holding the law unconstitutional would be a step backward for equality between the races and between the sexes."

Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls forms the international border between New York State on the American side and the province on Ontario on the Canadian side. And if you saw Nik Wallenda cross the falls on national TV last year – yes, he had to present his passport on the other side – you saw how really close it is. The three major falls are known as the American Side, Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side and Bridal Veil Falls. Combined, they form the highest water-flow rate of any waterfalls in the world. There are many look-out points and ways to enjoy this majestic attraction. For the best up-close-and-personal look, take a famous blue slicker and hop aboard the world-famous Maid of the Mist – the oldest and best-known attraction – to go right up to the fall's base! The more adventurous can walk behind them (literally) at Journey Behind the Falls at the bottom of Horseshoe Falls or fly over them in an unforgettable helicopter ride. Also make sure to ride to the observation deck at the top of the Skylon Tower for the highest overhead view of the falls in one direction, and great views as far as distantToronto in the other.
Fireworks & Illuminations
Niagara Falls at night is a spectacle unto itself. The Falls take on the colors of the rainbow, starting at dusk every evening – the only time they were turned off was in 2003 to support recovery efforts during a major northeast blackout. In addition to these night illuminations, there are spectacular fireworks displays scheduled on Friday nights throughout the year – enjoy them from many local restaurants or anywhere in the area. Check on-line for the 2013 schedule.
Niagara Falls Casinos and Entertainment

The Niagara Fallsview Casino is one of Canada's premier destinations for live performances and is Canada's largest gaming floor with over 100 gaming tables, and also features great restaurants and shops. The Seneca Niagara Casino is on the American side and boasts 99 gaming tables – make sure to pay them a visit. Check the Niagara Falls entertainment calendar to see who you can see during your Niagara Falls getaway!

Over 90% ofCanada's unique icewine is produced byNiagara vintners. You can tour the Niagara Wine Route by bar, bike, bus or on a guided tour – a year-round attraction!

This 100-acre space is home to dozens of meticulously maintained gardens -- cared for by students at the on-site horticulture school -- featuring thousands of species of plants.

The gardens are also home to the Butterfly Conservatory, where several thousand butterflies flit and flutter among brightly colored flowers.

This winter saw a good mix of weather types, ranging from a brief polar blast in June, to blocked southwesters, anticyclones and stuck Tasman lows.
The winter may not have felt so cold and perhaps appeared back to front, with the season opening with a polar blast and snow, then milder weather later on.
This mix of weather systems was typical of the passing neutral phase in the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle. It is moving away from last summer's La Nina, without reaching the other extreme of El Nino.
In the neutral phase, other factors can influence the season's weather, including sea temperature anomalies, the Southern Annular Mode (Sam) and winter blocking.
The other interesting thing about the winter was the source regions for the air moving across New Zealand at various times. Source regions influence how cold, or warm, the air feels in weather systems. In the first part of the winter, the source region was the Southern Ocean.
During the second half, air was more often from the milder Tasman Sea.
This winter was coldest early on, when the Southern Ocean opened up and began to feed polar-chilled air toward New Zealand.
On June 6, some of this air collided with a moist Tasman Sea low, bringing significant snow to parts of the South Island. Christchurch received 15cm and some higher elevations 50-100cm.
In mid-June, the Southern Ocean continued to be the main airflow source, resulting in colder than normal daytime highs, barely above 8°C in some parts of central and southern regions. A blocked, or stuck, weather pattern kept a bone-chilling southerly flow in place with wintry showers peppering southern and eastern coasts for more than a week.
Stubborn lows
In late July, the upper wind flow changed to a more blocking regime, causing many lows from the Tasman Sea to get stuck and linger. This led to excessive rain and flooding, particularly along northern and eastern areas.
A stubborn low spent nearly a week spinning off the west coast of the North Island in the final days of July. The system began as an active low, moving in from the Tasman Sea. The rain spread across the north of the North Island during July 30. By the following morning, more than 100mm had fallen in the Coromandel ranges, with Kopu recording 115mm. The low remained for several days, bringing wet weather to much of New Zealand.
The blocking eased in mid-August. A more typical winter westerly flow returned with a procession of rain-bearing fronts interspersed with milder anticyclones.
Another curious event was early September's wintry blast which brought snow to sea level across parts of the South Island and low levels over southern and eastern parts of the North Island. The polar-chilled air behind the system was some of the coldest air over winter, although it happened in the first few days of spring.
What is to come?
Westerly flows will be a major feature during the next several weeks, bringing spells of rain with active troughs. Looking further into spring, do not be surprised at continued variability, especially once the weak El Nino settles into the driver's seat for the ride toward summer. This weak signal El Nino could also allow other factors to play a part in our weather patterns.
Expect settled periods, with clear sunny days and frosty, or foggy mornings, associated with passing anticyclones.
Fronts and troughs rolling in from the Tasman may be followed by episodes lasting several days of cool southwest winds across the whole country. Occasionally, a low-pressure centre may move on to the country from the north, preceded by an easterly flow with some heavy rain for north-eastern areas. Watch for a blocking pattern during the next several weeks where the weather patterns get stuck, causing some anomalies.

My bees seem to screw everything up. Or is it the beekeeper.?????
Anyhow; Last PM I checked the bees and many were outside the hives. It was 90+ degrees but previousley they didn't cluster outside when that hot. Today I opened the hives and found the ventilated innercover, below the "attic" and cover, was closed with propolis, therefore no ventilation. I have 5 holes in the inner cover, covered with window sceen. I went to the house, drilled 2 inch holes in other inner covers, covered them with screen and put them on the hives. How do I prevent these "dumb" girls from doing this again and how do I clean up the covers they messed up??

Northland is asking the Government to declare a drought in the region.
Civil Defence, the council and rural representatives are calling on the Minister of Primary Industries Nathan Guy to issue a medium-scale adverse events declaration for the region.
During a conference call this morning they called for the Northland region, as a whole - from Auckland Harbour Bridge north - to be declared a drought zone.
Northland Rural Support Trust co-ordinator Julie Jonker said most areas in Northland had been without rain, and none was forecast for the next fortnight.
She said milk production had fallen rapidly as farmers dry off some cows and moved to once-a-day milking.
Ms Jonker said she hoped the minister would respond by the end of the week.
A declaration would give the trust access to funding to provide advice to farmers and growers and allow for emergency financial help for rural families who lose their incomes.
Prime Minister John Key says there is a reasonably high chance a drought will be declared soon as the country's farmers become increasingly concerned.
Prime Minister John Key told TV3's Firstline the Government was keeping a close eye on the situation.
"The Minister for Primary Industries is working with the [farming] industry and I think that there is a reasonably high chance a drought will be declared fairly soon."
If that happens, the Government would provide farmers with financial and emotional support.
"One of the big risks of course is you have people whose whole livelihood is tied up in the farm. Through weather conditions they can't control, their livelihood is severely challenged and that can be very depressing for people. We just try and make sure there's an outreach programme of support so they don't feel isolated and lonely."
According to Weatherwatch, some much-needed showers crossed over Northland this morning but other dry parts of the country appear unlikely to get any.
Other than a few potential showers over the weekend, most of the country will remain hot and dry for the remainder of the week, with daytime temperatures often reaching the high 20s.
No sustained rain is forecast until the middle of March.
A Northland Rural Support Trust meeting today will assess whether most of the region is affected enough for drought action.
An official drought was declared in Northland in January 2010 and again the next summer in December 2010.
The National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (Niwa) says soil moisture levels are so low the region is dry enough to be considered a drought zone again.
Waikato also faces being declared a drought zone for third time since 2008 as dry weather forces many farmers to sell their stock much earlier than usual.
A committee has been formed to help manage the response to the drought risk in the region.
The continuous dry spell could also adversely affect farmers' income in Wairarapa for up to three years, Federated Farmers president Jamie Falloon said.
The Bideford farmer said a combination of falling lamb prices and persistent dry conditions are crippling sheep farmers.
"It's getting serious. If the dry conditions continue you'll see a marked drop in lambing and that is serious.
"The worst thing about a dry is when it spills in to two or three years. It's a very serious situation that people are facing."

After that we walked and saw the typical buildings around town and visited the market down by the water. We refrained from buying any raindeer products, but of course had to pick up a Christmas ornament. After all, Northern Finland is where Santa lives. After a bit more strolling around we made it back to the boat where we were getting pretty good at eating our way thru the day - buffets and sit down dinners. This time on the cruise we were the old married couple and hit the nighttime shows...and I must say they were pretty good!


text: I might come back for a month or so. WoW just hasn't been doing anything exciting(IMHO) lately. Still no housing, same tired old queues, very little truly dynamic content. Way too focused on dailies on LFR. Even if I came back a lot of that would have to change to stay for long.

where's the road/single track/path/anything to let you know in which direction to goReplyDelete
freakin awesome...70 degrees here in Philly today...it's nice, but i dream of mountains and snowReplyDelete
spring is schizo. one day melting, one day dumping. the best is when it stays below freezing. the ground hard and ridable. the air cold, but relatively warm, the smell of spring from previous melting under new snow. a battle between seasons. and the daylight! out playing until 9pm sunsets! makes springtime mornings even harder than during the dead of january winter. life is good. thanks for the demonstration of why we live at high latitudes.ReplyDelete
That ski resort is closed during the middle of the week, so there aren't many people there. After this weekend, it will be closed all the time, because it's spring :-)
It is pretty silly to drag my bike up a ski slope rather than just hiking with my snowboard and riding a few of the faster runs. The bike is really hard to control in new snow and it makes for slow, bumpy runs. But then, I can't ride my snowboard from my house up to the resort. I keep hoping I'll just get better at this whole downhill mountain biking thing.
Hey Jill, great little video. Most excellent choice on the Regina Spektor song. I've used several of her songs on videos I've done, including celereation videos for our company Christmas parties.
Hey, just wanted to let you know that we are gearing up for another 12hrs. If you email me, I will send you an invite to be a contributor of the blog. Date is not firm yet, but looks like next Saturday or the one after that. Up in the air yet.
Very nice! I wish I had your threshold for windchill, but I can't break out the bike yet and instead am enjoying some excellent spring skiing up here.ReplyDelete
Nice blog, will you be interested in a text link exchange with us?

Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords is a turn-based PC strategy game that puts the player in the role of leader of a space-faring civilization. The player will direct his civilization across the galaxy to colonize planets, establish trade routes, fight wars and ultimately gain control of the galaxy.
Players must balance their diplomatic power, industrial strength, military might, technological resources and cultural endeavors to reach their goal of ultimate victory. Facing the player are up to nine computer-controlled civilizations, each with its own unique artificial intelligence engine.
Alien civilizations can make treaties, trade agreements and alliances. Victory often means working with other civilizations cooperatively in order to fight off stronger, more aggressive races.
Galactic Civilizations II offers multiple paths to victory including the standard military conquest option, creating a universal galactic alliance, technology victory and cultural domination.
The game includes both a sandbox mode where players can play individual games on randomly generated or existing maps, as well as a multi-mission campaign that takes them through the story of Galactic Civilizations II.
Players can also compete online via the Galactic Metaverse in which individual games are submitted to GalCiv.com and made part of the player's epic history.

Where I stayed
Canal House B & B
Our version of some of the film's best scenes:
Climbing the Belfort
366 narrow, claustrophobic steps to the top winding past old bells (the ringing kind, not the sipping iced tea and entertaining gentleman callers kind), thick wooden doors and menacing arrow slits presumably set up to defend against rogue packs of Hun bandits
Contemplating suicide in the park
Well, not so much suicide, I guess, as quietly contemplating the funny smell wafting over from that rowdy group of teenagers loitering in the grass. And strolling. And discussing Mark's firm belief that all covered playground slides are irretrievably coated in child's pee. An irrational fear? Or commentary on a Yorkton childhood? Or does he just spend long hours quietly observing strange children urinating? None of our theories proved conclusive, but the pictures of the lake turned out just terrific.
Fleeing a mad gunman by diving out the hotel window into the canal
Ok, this one is tough. We really didn't do this. But it probably got your attention.
Making out with a con artist on a fairy tale bridge
Well, ex-waitress, anyway
Snorting coke with two manky hookers and a racist dwarf
The snorting part actually didn't happen that much, and usually it was coming out rather than in, but we did do our fair share of guzzling and even traded Coke for beer on more than one occasion. Laynni and Andie continue to take exception to the "hooker" reference but don't fool yourself, nobody gets anything for nothing these days. As for the dwarf, well, let's just say European girls in high heels do their leggy, effortless best to shed a humbling light on Andie's alleged sixty-four inches.
Shootout in the Fish Market
We were using a Canon
Getting robbed by a skinhead conman
In fact, what happened was the waitress was giving me the eye, so I winked and licked my lips seductively, as I'm wont to do, then her skinhead boyfriend appeared over my shoulder all cocky and Mario Lopez-y, so I spit partially chewed cheese in his eye, kicked the shit out of him and his Club Brugge jersey, stole some Ibuprofen out of his girlfriend's sequined mini-purse, got drunk and wandered reflectively among all the haunting medieval churches and got down to some real thorough Belgian lace doily shopping. Then, after that, none of that actually happened.
Factual aside:
We drank a lot of Belgian beer and spent a lot of time meandering through mesmerizing little alleys, pondering picturesque yet sluggish windmills, gazing pensively down murkily reflective canals and barging through busy plazas teeming with looming Dutch day trippers and skeptical French people shopping doggedly for good bargains on striped clothing, jaunty scarves and shiny new Flemish dildos
All movie tourism aside, before Bruges we had arrived in Brussels where we enjoyed a pleasant start thanks to the friendly and helpful woman at airport info desk, friendly and helpful taxi driver, friendly and helpful Fedex guy who shipped our hiking gear off to western France to wait for us until the beginning of October and a guy named Jan with tight white jeans and surprisingly hairy forearms who suggested I try a traditional Belgian specialty of ice cream sprinkled with chocolate wrapped in a waffle cone and eaten while kneeling on a lace doily. It translates into English as Sweet Belgian Mouth Cream. Hey, it's no weirder than a naked child called Mannekin Pis urinating exuberantly into the air becoming the symbol of Brussels. All in all, the only thing that could have improved our visit was if, while wandering the suburbs of Brussels in search of a train station, we had found a hat in the ditch with a picture of a donkey drinking moonshine.
After Bruges we actually spent a night back in Brussels, arriving amid one of reputedly many festival type celebrations held regularly in the magnificent Grand Place (and no, that's not a typo), what turned out to be a strange mix of classical renditions of eighties pop songs, vigorous square dancing and tourists getting their photos taken with three American WWII jeeps and supposed soldiers dressed appropriately for that time period, but clearly not ours. Just a few blocks down from that assault on logic we found a large gathering of young slackers and irritatingly lanky bikers enjoying a "Take Back the City" rally. It seemed to be promoting cycling and walking as opposed to driving environmentally intrusive vehicles. I'm not sure where all the pot and b.o
Unfortunately, we had a flight to Croatia scheduled for the following morning and were unable to stick around for the remainder of the week's "Take Back the-" itinerary:
Take Back the Waiting Room – smoking cigarettes and reading Life magazine while waiting to have a meat blockage surgically removed from your small intestine.
Take Back the Sitcom – helpful laugh tracks and weekly moral lessons like how giving in to peer pressure can lead to young Sarah getting double-teamed by the Anderson brothers from down the block.
Take Back Sexual Innuendo in the Workplace – reintroduction of terms like "Babe" and phrases such as "Why don't you grab us some coffee, Sweet Cheeks?" and "Are your high beams always on or were you just thinking about my cock?"
Think on that. Next up from Croatia!

10 Reasons Harry Styles & Taylor Swift Should Stay Together Forever
Taylor and Harry have spent so much time together in the last two weeks, fans have already dubbed them 'Haylor.' From their sexy sleepovers to their romantic English getaway, check out these lovey dovey pics of 'Haylor' and tell us if YOU think they should be together forever!
Harry Styles and Taylor Swift are heating up! The hot new couple has been splitting their time between New York City and England, having romantic dates in both locations. Harry even got Taylor a super sweet surprise for her 23rd birthday — 23 cupcakes! See why we love them so much below!
They were first photographed in Central Park, at the zoo, on Dec. 2. The next day, Dec. 3, was the One Direction concert at MSG. Although Taylor was accepting an award and had to miss the concert, they met up for the after party and arrived at her hotel (holding hands!) around 4am.
Taylor's English Birthday
Taylor flew Harry from New York to England on her private jet on Dec. 8. One Direction performed their new single "Kiss You" on the UK version of The X Factor the next day.
On Dec. 11, the love birds (hehe) were photographed feeding birds while on their romantic getaway to the Lake District in Northern England.
Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end and Harry was spotted driving Taylor to the airport on Dec. 14.
Check out our gallery of some of our favorite pics of Haylor and vote below — are they the cutest couple ever?

The Pulaski Technical College Foundation has received a $10,000 community grant from the March of Dimes to help meet its mission of improving the health of babies.
The grant will fund an educational outreach program over the next year aimed
Pulaski Technical College's Early Childhood Development Program will spearhead the program.
"The overall goal of the program is to increase access to and quality of health care for women and infants," said Julie Williams, coordinator of Pulaski Technical College's Early Childhood Development program. "That starts with education."
Pulaski Tech expects to reach at least 500 women who are at risk due to previous past outcomes, chronic conditions and other risk factors.
Emphasis will be placed on reaching students who participate in the Single Parent Support Program, Career Pathways and the TRIO Scholars program, which serves first-generation college students.
"Many of our students are not educated on the best techniques for a successful pregnancy and are not aware of the importance of nutrition, exercise, folic acid and other current information," Williams said. "We want to change that and get them the information they need, so they can provide the best for their children."
A collection of books and educational materials on prenatal care, birth defects and other appropriate topics will be on exhibit in Ottenheimer Library and available to all students, faculty and staff.
Program participants will also learn about and receive assistance in registering for state and local maternal child health programs available to them, including Medicaid, the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), and the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, also known as WIC.
"We are pleased to be partnering with the March of Dimes Arkansas Chapter," said Joyce Taylor, executive director of the Pulaski Technical College Foundation. "Pulaski Technical College is well-positioned to reach students who will benefit from this outreach. Ultimately, we want all of our students and their families to be healthy and have access to quality health care."
Next year, Pulaski Tech's Early Childhood Development staff will conduct a workshop at the annual Arkansas Association of Two-Year Colleges conference to describe the program, its techniques, its successes and ideas for replication at other two-year colleges in the state.
The Early Childhood Development staff members are well-educated in pregnancy development, child development, and navigation of the state and local maternal child health programs. Pulaski Technical College is the only two-year college in Arkansas that has undergone the first-ever National Association for the Education of Young Children accreditation process for early childhood associate degrees.
Pulaski Tech's Early Childhood Development program trains and educates individuals who work in childcare facilities as managers and caregivers. Program options include an Associate of Applied Science, with options in Early Childhood Education and Program Administration, a two-year technical certificate in Early Childhood Development and a one-semester certificate of proficiency. Courses included Foundations of Early Childhood Education, Child Growth and Development, Environments for Young Children, Child Behavior and Guidance, Preschool Curriculum, Health, Safety and Nutrition for the Young Child and Language Arts.
Pulaski Technical College is a comprehensive, two-year college that serves the educational needs of central Arkansas through more than 50 occupational/technical degree and certificate programs, a university-transfer curriculum and specialized programs for business and industry.
The college's mission is to provide access to high quality education that promotes student learning, to enable individuals to develop to their fullest potential and to support the economic development of the state.

Handspring Puppet Co.:
The genius puppetry behind War Horse
"Puppets always have to try to be alive," says Adrian Kohler of the Handspring Puppet Company, a gloriously ambitious troupe of human and wooden actors. Beginning with the tale of a hyena's subtle paw, puppeteers Kohler and Basil Jones build to the story of their latest astonishment: the wonderfully life-like Joey, the War Horse, who trots (and gallops) convincingly onto the TED stage.

text: All, Due to delayed shifts I decided to spend some time checking/working on my transmission/differentials. I have had the truck for some time and I do not know when these were done last. Hoping that serious damage had not already been done, I busted out my Haynes and some how-to articles and decided the first step would be flushing/changing the fluid. Picked up the fluid and my deep filter and went to work. To start, my drain plug was stripped and fused to the pan; not even PB blaster could help me (strange). I was able to at first with moderate success remove some of the pan bolts without spilling transmission fluid everywhere. There were a few spots where other brackets/interfaces got in the way, so I removed what I could. There was one bolt however in the corner closest to the shift linkage that was determined to be a royal PITA. Trying to get this out was at first challenging, but with enough adjustment, man grunting and hand soaked in transmission fluid, I was able to get it out. The mess was getting worse, but for all intensive purposes I was confident it was something the kitty liter would handle. I started to work to remove the pan as gingerly as possible, never having broken it open before I did not know what fragile components were being protected directly above it. It was clear that the forming of the pan was to make space for these components, as there was very little space to maneuver the pan around. I tilted it to spill as much of the fluid in to the drain as possible. Realizing the the shift linkage bracket was still in the way, and the only bolt I could feel was rusted like a piece of steel in the dead sea; I knew I was going to have to get creative. Using my new stanley super wonder bar, and continued to pry the bracket out of the way to gain clearance without damaging other transmission components. I worked to finagle the pan for the next <insert more time than I am willing to admit> with no success. It seems like the How-To suggests the pan is removed starting from the back end first, but this is not possible with the exhaust pipe that crosses over in the way. It can not be translated over any further because of the bracket/shift linkage, and virtually every movement contacts something above (ie what the pan is protecting). I retired for the evening a broken man at around 11PM, and proceeded to console my irritation with a 1lb burger; which worked to perfection. The way I see it, I only have a few choices: Drop the exhaust and try to move the pan without it in the way Cut the bracket with a dremmel tool (hope transmission fluid isn't too flammable) The bracket is rusted, so I figure I'll have to deal with that one later anyway; so cutting it doesn't bother me. Speak up to let me know if I am doing something wrong before I do something stupid. Thanks! TJ
