Reviews of this property
My friend and me had a quiet and comfortable sojourn here. Janne is a helpful and pleasant host. Recommendable location when you wanna calm down after an exciting day in Amsterdam. Thanks for accommodation, Janne
We had a very nice stay in Amsterdam in Jannes room. It is close to the citybus, and Janne is a very kind and helpfull person.
A very polite and kind person,Janne offered us a wonderful experience in her warm,clean and delicious house,that is not exactly in the centre,but you can easily reach with the bus 21 ,in 15 minutes from the central station!Thank Janne,even for your magnificient breakfast,we all hope to see you soon!Love from Natalia Emanuele and Sofia!
I had a wonderful stay at Janne's! The room was cozy, the breakfast was good, and Janne was helpful and a great hostess! I will keep her accommodations in mind if and when I have the opportunity to come to Amsterdam again. It is conveniently located for the bus to town as well as thebus to the train for the airport. She made our trip to Amsterdam all the better! Thank you Janne!
The bedroom had no curtain, so we (in June) were very early wake up because of the daylight. The breakfast could not be used at the requested time. The bathroom had to be shared. We see the owners snoring in their beds. The breakfast was good, but the butter was served in a used tub. The cat slept on the bed of the owners so that their bedroom door ajar to stay up.
De slaapkamer had geen gordijn, waardoor we (in juni) zeer vroeg wakker waren vanwege het daglicht. Het ontbijt kon niet op de gevraagde tijd worden gebruikt. De badkamer moest worden gedeeld. We hebben de eigenaren zien snurken in hun bed. Het ontbijt was goed, maar de boter werd geserveerd in een gebruikt kuipje. De huiskat sliep op het bed van de eigenaren waardoor hun slaapkamerdeur op een kier moest blijven opstaan.
Very nice hostess, looked after very dear to me. The room is small and clean, the area quiet, but it is nevertheless a short bus ride into downtown. The breakfast was adequate, I got even towels for the stay. The cleanliness of the bathroom was fine. Only a cat allergy should not have.
Sehr nette Gastgeberin, hat sich sehr lieb um mich gekümmert. Das Zimmer ist klein und sauber, die Gegend ruhig, aber man ist dennoch schnell mit dem Bus in der Innenstadt. Das Frühstück war ausreichend, ich habe sogar Handtücher für den Aufenthalt bekommen. Die Sauberkeit des Bads war auch in Ordnung. Lediglich eine Katzenallergie sollte man nicht haben.
Our stay at Janne's house was wonderful. She was an incredible caring and nice host and we felt comfortable during our whole stay. The bus near Janne's house drives every 8-9 minutes and there is a supermarket directly around the corner.
We have absolutely nothing to complain about and are happy that we found her here on Wimdu. (:
We were very well received in Jan. Single but very quiet. Hearty breakfast. The accommodation is situated 5 minutes walk from the bus station Pieter postpad. Correspondence from the airport is easy, just take the bus line 69, get off at the station in January ????????????? and then take line 21 towards Guenvel and get off at Pieter postpad station or terminal.
Jan. thank you for your sympathy
Nous avons été très bien accueillis chez Jan. Chambre simple mais très silencieuse. Petit déjeuner copieux. Le logement est situé à 5 minutes à pied de la station de bus Pieter Postpad. La correspondance à partir de l'aéroport est facile, il suffit de prendre la ligne de bus 69 , descendre à la station Jan ????????????? et ensuite prendre la ligne 21 en direction de Guenvel et descendre à la station Pieter Postpad ou au terminus.

Ok, when it rains it pours.
Was shown two hives today. Are these bees that bad at making decisions of where to place a hive and is that sign that we should leave them for nature to weed out.
The first is in a pallet. Yes a simple wooden mostly rotten pallet with a small bush growing through it. The comb is visible crossing between slats and there is nothing to cover the sides. The comb doesn't even follow the pallet boards well, but is crossways.
The second is in a roll of that erosion cloth attached to 2x4 wire mesh. The roll was used, rolled up and dumped with a plastic bag in the middle that they build the comb under plus a lot of debris.
It dropped to mid 30s tonight as well as tomorrow night, then back into the 80s. The comb would be great to have even if they don't survive. No electricity and don't have an inverter for the vac. So it might be interesting to try to gather them each into a nuc and save them.
Going to borrow the wife's digital camera for photos of these.
Are these worth trying to salvage?

Vick didn't garuntee a superbowl. He said it's all about the superbowl.
On the other hand.... Ryan Kalil
The sixth-year center bought a full-page ad in the Charlotte Observer on Wednesday, telling Panthers fans their "unwavering support" would be rewarded this year.
And Kalil has a goal in mind how fans would reap the benefits with what he said is "One hundred-percent, sterling silver victory. The Lombardi Trophy."
The 178-word open letter, called "a war cry to fans," had one emphatic statement:CAROLINA PANTHERS -- SUPER BOWL XLVII CHAMPIONS!

Thanks for this, Ryan. Judging what a stream or river will be like, especially with snowmelt in spring, can be incredibly tough. While I'm not sure *how,* I think this is a subject of backcountry travel where more research can be done.
I agree that the NOHRSC website is very useful for winter snowpack and many other aspects of backcountry conditions. Another potentially useful filter on the NOHRSC is the "snow melt" found here: http://tinyurl.com/cjo6krb
The NWIS database is also good for checking streamflow, as is this website: http://www.americanwhitewater.org along with a few others, as I'm sure you're familiar with.
I'm currently frustrated with this cold spring. I had anticipated doing some Wisconsin whitewater (YES we actually have that!!!) by now, but the good rivers are still frozen. Grrrrr.
EDIT: FOR ANYONE LOOKING AT THE NOHRSC WEBSITE, INCLUDING MY LINK, MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE DATE AND UPDATE THE MAP. THE WEBSITE IS NOT SELF-UPDATING.Apr 9, 2013 at 11:59 pm #1974755

Great article. I don't have a packraft (yet) but this is the kind of article I would come back to if I ever get one.
Actually I thought of another application for this information. I'm looking a some trips in the Wind River range and the Teton Wilderness. Using your ideas I could make a rough guess as to whether certain rivers could be safely forded or not.Apr 18, 2013 at 11:15 pm #1978286

More short-term streamflow variables to consider for snowmelt or glacier fed streams:
If snow pack air temperatures are cycling above and below freezing, you could see significant daily rises and drops in streamflow. If you arrive at the creek early in the morning and the flow looks too low – wait a few hours, you might be rewarded as the day warms up and the snow melts. Conversely, a flow that's just right, right now, might be too high for comfort in a few hours. The air temperatures at the elevations of the snow pack control melt rate, not air temperature where you are standing.
The directional exposure of a snow pack can make a big difference. If the snowpack of your favorite creek is in a sheltered, north-facing bowl or cirque, you need higher air temperatures to melt that snow, than a similar creek with south-facing snowpack (in the Northern Hemisphere). If you are comparing one creek without a gage to another with a gage, you should take snowpack exposure into account.
You might not see that first pulse of snowmelt until several hours after snow pack air temperatures go above freezing. More miles below the snow pack, gentler gradient, and lower temperature rise, mean longer waits. In some cases, the peak flows might be in late afternoon or early evening.
The weather just before and during your trip can play a big role. Warm weather will speed up snowmelt. A warm rainstorm can really speed up snowmelt – the worst flooding in California's Sierra Nevada mountains comes during and shortly after warm rainstorms on big snow packs. A cold snap can reduce streamflow to a trickle. You can see these patterns on nearby streams with gages; you should see similar patterns on your favorite creek. Spring weather forecasts in the Western USA can be notoriously inaccurate, so you should learn to make your own short-term weather forecasts based on observations and local knowledge.
On the other hand, streams and rivers which are primarily fed by springs, like some in Oregon's Cascade mountains, might have none of these issues. Once the river thaws, flows can be quite steady, regardless of the weather, time of day, etc. Snowmelt feeds these streams, but the pulses are filtered by running through miles of porous volcanic rocks and soils before surfacing in springs.

As mentioned, having an idea of the decent rates for a watercourse is valuable. Using a topo map is a good way to do this, but Google Earth also provides another neat tool.
Using the ruler function, trace a 'Path' of the river. When finished, save the route and then right click 'show elevation profile'. Here's one for the first 4 miles of the NF White River:
From this, one can easily calculate descent rates and you also get a good visualization of the route. Descent rate consistency becomes obvious, and steeper sections (ie. 0.6km, 3.5km) are apparent. Since this elevation data is linked to the satellite images, you can then take a closer look at any areas of abnormal elevation drop.
Of course this is only as good as Google's data and your tracing of the route.

text: Just got a 1998 Chev 3500 Cheyenne 1 ton with a 350 engine. Motor was replaced about 5 years ago with a brand new crate motor from GM. Original motor failed due to leaking intake manifold gasket. The present motor also has the same problem-antifreeze in the crankcase, also attributed to leaking intake manifold gasket. What years did this problem start and when did it end? The local rebuilder advises me that this was a common problem. Does anyone know if this a machining error or poor gasket on the part of GM? Apparently there is a replacement gasket that solves this mess. I don't have the motor out yet and will have to wait for the climate to warm up before I pull the engine. Cheers, Old Iron nut. PS. Truck has low mileage.

A person that a male or female who is single seeks out for a one night stand to break their current "drought". A drought breaker is usually an individual whom you have no feelings for, but because of their affection for you or lack of self-esteem they fall back into the habit of sleeping with you on the notion that they might once again have a chance to date you. A drought breaker also leads to a boost in self-esteem for the party initiating the hookup.

[quote user="nevada11"][quote user="Redeyejedi"]He seems to be really high on Brockers. I dont think his tape is all that impressive.His athleticism is overrated. Brockers does a great job at holding the point of attack , but #5 overall for an elite run stuffer that gets taken off the field on passing downs?
I do see the potential in Brockers and he hasnt had that weight on him for that long. He was a 250lb SOLB when he came to LSU. He isnt much of a threat on the QB.[/quote]
What in the world redeye, brockers athleticism is overrated????? Everyone says he is a great athlete that has amazing upside
Look at this article:
He has amazing upside because his wingpsan is 83 7/8 inches. That is LONGER than JPP's wingspan which is 81 inches. He has 35 inch arms! He is the defensive tackle version of JPP and has upside just like JPP. He is a freak of nature and has huge upside[/quote]
I dont know what him being long has to do with him being athletic. He isnt quick or explosive at all.He offers nothing as a pass rusher as he didnt play on passing downs. He hasnt been at that weight for long so maybe he could learn to carry it better but I dont think he will ever develop into a great pass rusher or gap shooter.He looks like a 2 gap player in the NFL.
An Athletic DT to me is Fletcher Cox. Great burst, length ,elite level quickness. He will be disruptive in the backfield hence more value to me

Is there any difference than inside feeders other than syrub could be used by neighbour bees.

While movement problems are the main symptom of Parkinson's disease, a new study shows that even early in the course of disease people frequently experience many non-motor symptoms such as drooling, anxiety and constipation. The study is published in the January 15, 2013, print issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.
"Oftentimes people with early Parkinson's don't even mention these symptoms to their doctors, and doctors don't ask about them, yet many times they can be treated effectively," said study author Tien K. Khoo, PhD, of Newcastle University in the United Kingdom.
The study compared 159 people with newly diagnosed Parkinson's disease to 99 people of similar ages who did not have the condition. Participants were asked whether they experienced any of the 30 non-motor symptoms screened for, including sexual problems, sleep problems and gastrointestinal problems.
Those with Parkinson's disease had an average of eight of the non-motor problems, compared to three for the people who did not have the disorder. Among the most common symptoms for those with Parkinson's disease were drooling, urinary urgency, constipation, anxiety and a reduced sense of smell. These likely represent other symptoms of Parkinson's that may be present even before the diagnosis is made.
A total of 56 percent of the people with Parkinson's had problems with excess saliva or drooling, compared to 6 percent of those without the disease. A total of 42 percent of those with Parkinson's had constipation, compared to 7 percent of the control group. For anxiety, it was 43 percent compared to 10 percent.
"These results show that Parkinson's affects many systems in the body, even in its earliest stages," Khoo said. "Often these symptoms affect people's quality of life just as much if not more than the movement problems that come with the disease. Both doctors and patients need to bring these symptoms up and consider available treatments."
The study was supported by Parkinson's UK, Newcastle University Lockhart Parkinson's Disease Research Fund, and the UK National Institute for Health Research.

I just got my stamp back and engraving done.
If it's .45 I want one!
That is pretty bad ass! Please give details.
Is this the system where the bolt toggles downward, so NO felt recoil??
" Save a tree...........Eat A Beaver!"
I seldom talk to liberals.............................. But when I do, I order fries............
Yes it is, it's like no or very little recoil.Is this the system where the bolt toggles downward, so NO felt recoil??
That is sweet as an SBR, a guy at the range got one but it's a carbine, still fun as hell to shoot but funky looking with the long barrel.

It is a KRISS 45 ACP pistol that I converted to an SBR. This thing has no noticable recoil because of the bolt design.

The III Citadel Controversy - SurvivalBlog.com
The name "III Citadel" came into the limelight last weekend, when The Drudge Report posted a prominent link to a CNS article by Gregory Gwyn-Williams, Jr.. In a nutshell, a man identifying himself as "Sam III" who is somehow loosely associated with III Arms (a legitimate company, in West Virginia) started a patriot community building project, somewhere east of St. Maries, Idaho. When I first heard about it in November, I made just one short and noncommittal "this sounds interesting" mention in my blog. (A post which I just removed.)
Two days ago I was quite troubled to learn that the main promoter of Citadel III is a convicted felon. (That, according to the SipseyStreetIrregulars blog.)
In the III Citadel web page and blog, Mr. Hyman /Sam Kerodin / Christian Kerodin / Sam Kerillion / Sam Hellesponte / Sam III / Nom Du Jour seems to imply that I've somehow endorsed his venture or that what they are doing fits in with my American Redoubt concept. I haven't endorsed it, and he is not my buddy. To the best of my knowledge I've never met, spoken or corresponded with the man.
For some background, see:
"Citadel." Convicted extortionist's latest con gets huge play on Drudge.
Three-letter frog in Kerodin's pocket? Anecdotes of the Kerodin career. A convicted extortionist. Turns out his real name is Christian Hyman.
Again, I have nothing to do with Mr. Hyman. My only nexus to him is that he chose a piece of land that is in one of the states that I recommend for relocation. He has apparently tried to capitalize on my name. According to the SipseyStreetIrregulars blog, Mr. Hyman "persuades folks to invest" in the project. My advice: Beware of III Citadel!
In closing, I should point out that III Arms is a separate entity and to the best of my knowledge they are a legitimate and reputable company. - J.W.R.
As I've mentioned before, I share some strong reservations about the Citadel community plan and the group's leadership. (Namely, Mr. Kerodin.) Our friend Patrice Lewis, who lives in the same county, recently wrote a cogent summary, in her excellent Rural Revolution blog. Some of the comments that follow are thought provoking.
A fundamental flaw is that they plan to lease shares in a walled community, rather than sell clear title to individual lots. Without private land holdings by the individual members, this wouldn't be much more than a hippie commune--albeit a heavily-armed hippie commune.
I know the region quite well. In fact, it is not far from where my first novel (Patriots) was set. The subdivision, zoning and permit requirements in Benewah County are favorable to development. (Much better than in adjoining Latah County, where there is a 40 acre minimum parcel size, for subdivision.) There are now permits required and a building code is enforced, but agricultural buildings are exempt.
Outside of the sprawling National Forest, the only large tracts of land around there (usually no more than 640 acre sections--see the checkerboard pattern of sections in the Forest Service maps) are mostly held by the big timber companies such as Potlatch. The largest tracts and the most affordable (per acre) are mostly in high elevation country which have serious access problems in the winter and are pitiful, agriculturally. (Again, because of the elevation, which means a short growing season.)
Generally, the big tracts of land don't go on the market until after they've been logged. Bit I must mention that these days, the loggers no longer do many clear cuts, and they have special cutting plans required near streams.
While I do recommend the lower-elevation portions of the region, I don't think that the current Citadel plan has much chance of success. And as long as ex-felon Mr. Kerodin is in the leadership, I cannot endorse it.
jrs - something I ran across

If you're looking for a phrase to capture the excitement of a new flagship sedan, "patent filing" is probably not it. Then again, the 2014 Acura RLX is the replacement for the Acura RL, the least interesting luxury sedan extant. (And yes, we're including Lincoln in that assessment.)Read on:AcuraYour thoughts? Another dull design by Honda...
=================================No, Brian, it's a foreign car, the "T" is silent. Sweet, I'm getting an Audi!
At least it's not ugly.
Not "exciting" on the outside, but the new technology in the drivetrain looks very promising. almost 400hp and 30mpg in the city is nothing to sneeze at. 4 wheel steering, three electric motors, one on each rear wheel and can generate negative force...http://hondasacuras.blogspot.com/#!/2012/06/production-ready-drawings-of-2013-acura.html
The RLX has an X in its name. It has a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission on all-wheel-drive models. Its V-6 is a bit smaller (3.5 liters versus 3.7) and boasts, direct injection to increase output and efficiency.
Turbocharger Parts
It doesn't look bad. Then again I would have liked to see it look more like the NSX. They've got to bring those styling cues down-market at some point.

Zone 5a, Practicing non-intervention beekeeping
It's a way of life for them.
Over here, we have the second amendment.
Neonics are a 'high tech' version of nicotine and work by 'blocking' (hyper-stimulating) the neurons in the bees' brain. The neurons use a neuro-transmitter called acetyl choline. My layman's understanding is that in a healthy bee - the neuron can 'fire' hundreds of times a second, but between each nerve pulse, the 'switch' is turned off. Neonics act on the neuron by blocking the OFF switch and thus turning it permanently 'ON'. The result is that the bee is hyper-stimulated all the time - to the point where it cannot function.
One theory is that when ALL the neurons are firing all the time - this takes all the energy that the bee can produce - and the immune system collapses in a similar way to humans who were 'shell shocked' in WWI. So the bees die of bacteria, viruses, fungus disease - the analogy would be AIDS - which also destroys the immune system.
Henk Tennekes is a Dutch Toxicologist who has written a book called "The systemic insecticides - a disaster in the making' in which he describes in detail how the neonics cripple the nervous system of the bee even at fantastically low doses.
You can download it (buy it) from LULU.COM here:
OK - but I'm NOT dealing with the "neonics" at all, at least not intentionally. The spray I brewed up seems effective, so I'd like to go on using it. I won't smoke the ladies with nicotine - the gardens where I've sprayed are over 75 feet from the hives, and I protected the blossoms. I just need to know if inadvertent contact with sprayed leaves is going to hurt my girls.
What's interesting to note here, is that I'm a user of horticultural nicotine. I use it to keep the bed bugs away. (although I haven't seen any.)
I got my seeds from the USDA free of charge.
It's a real eye opener.
This is more to the point.

Byron, if I may ask a couple of questions- What is the breed of your pups? They are beautiful.
Funny, I came across a piece yesterday that talked about a research study where they showed people in the workplace 5 minutes of pictures of puppies and adult dogs. They found that those employees who viewed the pups were actually more productive in their work. We have been fortunate to have a dog therapy program at the hospital system I work at for many years. It really is amazing the impact they have on patients.
Did I also read that you have a daughter in banking? My daughter is two years post college (Finance). Her interest seems to be unfolding more toward asset management, but I was wondering if your daughter pursued any post grad education? We had always thought that she would need to obtain her MBA to remain competitive, but now it seems becoming a 'Chartered Financial Analyst' is becoming a key standard. It seems to be a major multi-year certification process, all self-study and requires to sit for three levels of exams, so it's not something that can be pursued at the same time as a masters as it also requires a minimum of 4 years working in the industry. Any advice or info you can offer would be much appreciated.
Many thanks.

text: This is a great website, especially for novice beekeepers. I've been lurking for 4 or 5 months now trying to learn as much as possible before my package installs this coming Saturday (70% chance of rain & thunderstorms....wouldn't you know). My e-Reader is filled with mostly books on beekeeping and have spent many evenings watching many instructional videos. My original intention for keeping bees was for an inexpensive way to get an agricultural exemption on my small farm....well, after all the reading & videos, I have become rather infatuated with these little creatures, and expect this to be a wonderful new hobby. I have actually planted a large bee friendly flower garden for them as well as have a regular garden which I assume they will help with needed pollination.

Explore the Theatre & Dance Curriculum...
World-Class Teachers
Your professors and instructors are accomplished, respected artists in their fields — designers, directors, choreographers, dancers, and actors who pursue active, vibrant careers. See for yourself! In addition, each year we bring in acclaimed guest artists to teach, direct, choreograph, design, and perform.
These artists will be your teachers, your mentors, your collaborators, and your colleagues, working one-on-one with you in the classroom, in the studio, and on the stage. And when you contact us to schedule a visit, the people you talk to will be the directors and founders of the Department. How's that for access?
First-Rate Facilities
You'll use state-of-the-art performance facilities, including two large theatres and two blackbox-style studio theatres, all equipped with modern lighting and sound, as well as expansive dance and acting studio space for classes, rehearsals, and student projects.
Amazing Opportunities to Perform & Create
The Department presents a Mainstage Season of six theatre productions and three dance concerts, from October through May, ranging in style from experimental studio productions to major Broadway musicals. More than 100 students are cast each season in Mainstage shows and dance concerts, which also offer numerous opportunities for directing, choreography, stage management, and design students.
In addition, the student-run Muhlenberg Theatre Association and Muhlenberg Dance Association produce an annual series of informal dance concerts and studio productions that give students opportunities to direct, choreograph, design, and perform, and several touring theatre and dance ensembles take the show on the road to area schools community centers.
Summer Music Theatre employs between 50 and 100 students each summer, as actors, stage managers, carpenters, stitchers, and administrative staff, giving participants hands-on professional summer stock experience. Many students also participate in the College Choir, a cappella groups, dance ensembles, and instrumental groups across campus.
International Study
The Department offers incredible opportunities for Theatre & Dance students to study abroad. More than half of our students spend a semester in one of several excellent programs specifically designed to complement the curriculum.
Many students head to the Accademia dell'Arte, in Arezzo, Italy, which offers intense conservatory training in both theatre and dance, with highly respected teachers. (And no, you don't need to know any Italian!)
Others head to programs at Goldsmiths College and Queen Mary College, University of London, to study alongside students from across England and around the world, and to immerse themselves in London's rich cultural life.
A Track Record of Success
Our graduates are prepared for study at the graduate level, pursue lives as professional artists, and contribute creative leadership in many other careers. Muhlenberg alumni are working as actors, directors, designers, choreographers, dancers, stage managers and technicians, educators, and arts administrators on Broadway, in film and television, and in major regional and educational theatres across the nation.

Discussion in 'BUILD OFF 4 BIKES' started by mastronaut, May 14, 2009.
Exactly what I was thinking...a screen or yeah just leaving it open is viable too, thanks! 8)
That is looking cool.
Oh man, I had a flame banana seat on it last night with a sissy bar...then I looked at it this morning and said nah, I found a better stem to give me some breathing room while riding. I kept the same set up and added a better brake lever and a Pletscher rack instead of the stock one. Holy heck, I nailed it!
I hope to have some pics up in a couple hours. it looks even better than the last pics....happy!
Would you consider selling me the stock rack?
PM sent....
Maybe something bullet shaped in that "intake".
Yes, and the original rear fender which will clean up like the front one!
I addressed the headlight issue with some black mesh from a very unlikely source, a metal pencil holder at Walmart. Re-did the brake and handlebar situation by adding a new handbrake lever and a taller stem. Here are some updated pics. Unfortunately following the shoot I tried to take it for a spin and the chain got stuck and pulled the derailleur into the spokes! Come to find out, the third gear sprocket had some bent teeth. So it's off to the LBS to put a new cluster on it.
Thankfully the derailleur took the beating and not the wheel. Don'tcha just love when these things happen? :x
Nice grill. 8)
Thanks man! Cheap solutions to complex problems is my mantra. 8)
DERAILLED! :shock:
I was afraid of something like that. You'll probably have to steal the sprok+chain from skinnyland (or mtb) to keep it working.
I saw the same chain (Walmart restocked finally) so I'll fix that, but the cluster was f-ed to begin with so the chain is an after thought.
I have a spare cluster and maybe I'll put a Schwinn pie plate on it this time hahah! I think I'll take the tank off and paint it in the mean time.
Thanks for your input....
I ended up buying a freewheel remover tool, changed out the cluster, derailleur and the spoke protector. Tomorrow I'll put the chain on and cable up.
Then if it's nice I'll take a spin and get some new photos! 8)
Well it's pretty much a done deal! I painted the tank (still debating flames or pin striping). The chain mess and derailleur is all set and TESTED.
So here she is... Thanks for the comments and encouragement.
I love those forks......Such a trick style for the days.........Gorgoues lines.......Nice work......RAD ride.....
Thanks, I now know why I loved this bike when I saw it at the dump begging me to take it home.... 8)
looks good. i scored my higgy at the transfer station as well, what is wrong w/ people!!
Those will be cool. Did you order them online?

Reviews of this property
Great hosts very nice atmosphere and fast connection to the center :)
Świetni gospodarze bardzo miła atmosfera i szybkie połączenie z centrum :)
All the best prządku. Description agrees with the facts. There was no problem with parking. The hosts kind and attentive. I would recommend
Wszystko w jak najlepszym prządku. Opis zgadza się ze stanem faktycznym. Nie było problemu z miejscem parkingowym. Gospodarze mili i uprzejmi. Polecam
Nice man!
Nice man!
Roman's house is a very nice town home and is quite new and modern. It is a little far to travel there but Mr Roman has given quite sufficient information to go to his house. The only thing guest has to watch out is his house no. is not in the front part. Like a town home complex, one has to count the street no (135?) and then the town home unit no.(20) Once you arrive, it is easy to get back home again and again. Thank you for the couple, Mr and Mrs Roman. They are very nice host but speak little English. Home is clean and quiet.
it's no problem to reach the property, despite that it is a bit out: subway to the last stop Mlociny, there Bus 708 to Station Radiowo (about 10 minutes by bus, then run 7 minutes and towards the rear); clean room; calm environment; very nice and helpful hosts, -> recommended
es ist kein Problem, die Unterkunft zu erreichen, trotz dass sie etwas außerhalb liegt: U-Bahn bis Endstation Mlociny, dort Bus 708 bis Station Radiowo (ca. 10 Minuten Busfahrt, dann 7 Minuten laufen entgegen der Fahrtrichtung); sauberes Zimmer; ruhige Umgebung; sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber, -> empfehlenswert
There were no major problems. There is everything to what was described in the offer. The rooms, bathroom in good condition.
What owners can improve? During cold nights could be heated, for one or two nights froze.
Nie było większych problemów. Do dyspozycji jest wszystko co było opisane w ofercie. Pokoje, łazienka w dobrym stanie.
Co właściciele mogą poprawić? W czasie zimnych nocy mogliby ogrzewać, bo jedną czy dwie noce zmarzłem.
The owners were very friendly and helpful. The room itself and its equipment was also exemplary. Pretty good access to the center (less than 50 min). I would recommend!
Właściciele byli bardzo sympatyczni i pomocni. Sam pokój oraz jego wyposażenie również było wzorowe. Całkiem dobry dojazd do centrum (mniej niż 50 min). Polecam!
Lovely hosts, speak some German and Englich. The room is adequate for two people. The bathroom is well ausgestatet.
You should be back bask have to be monitored to make the hosts to 23 clock.
For smokers, unfortunately single pair limitations as non smoking house and no balcony and front door 23-6 clock closed (only room key).
Nette Gastgeber, Sprechen etwas Deutsch und Englich. Das Zimmer ist für zwei Personen ausreichend. Das Bad ist gut ausgestatet.
Man sollte bis 23 Uhr zurück sein sonnst muss man die Gastgeber wachmachen.
Für Raucher leider einpaar einschränkungen, da nichtraucher Haus und kein Balkon und Haustür von 23 bis 6 Uhr verschlossen (nur Zimmer Schlüssel).
Our stay at Roman's house was very nice. They were very helpful for our arrival, providing clear indications and even coming to pick us up at the bus stop late at night so we didn't get lost. It's a little outside of Warsaw, definitely not in the center, but the public transport is cheap and very fast, so in half an hour we get to the center.
The room was comfortable, with everything you need. A little fridge, water boiler, cutlery and towels. There was even a very big flat screen tv just for us! They even offered us a map of the city with instructions and lend us an umbrella on the day it was supposed to rain (thanks again!). The only negative point I would say is that there are no curtains in the room so it's bothering when the sun is completely up at 4 a.m., you can't sleep anymore. We had to ''make'' curtains ourselves with towels, but it wasn't the best. Just add curtains and the room is perfect!!!

Review by Jason Haddix
If anyone hasn't seen or used The Academy Pro, then you're missing out on an incredibly valuable resource. Peter Giannoulis and friends have put together 400+ videos on setting up and using optimally all our *favorite* security technologies. Need to set up IronPort? They have a video. GFI Languard? They have a video, too. Need pentest tool tips? They have over 70 different VA/Pentest video tutorials. Heck, they have our Security Aegis videos.
Last month, Peter started the buzz on a new training class he will be offering. It's called eLearnSecurity. So far we know it has about 2000 slides of theory and practical application, plus 5 hours of unreleased video. The class promises to be affordable and have some awesome labs.

Do you like stuffed green peppers? I don't actually stuff the peppers as my husband and I will not eat them, so why waste them. So I chop mine up in smaller pieces unless my oldest son is home. As he likes the peppers whole. I dice up three peppers, small onion, 3 pounds of hamburger and salt and pepper to taste. Fry until hamburger is done, drain.. add 2.5 cups of rice and mix well. Pour into crock pot and add one large can of tomato juice. Cover and cook on low. Takes about 5 hours to cook completely. BUT... this can be slow cooked all day. I have make mine before work and put it in and start it and get home 8.5 hours later and ready to eat.

Fire up with Marquette's grill master
By Jessie Bazan, communication senior
Looking for a meal that's mouth-watering and family-friendly? Dax Phillips has you covered. The Law School's director of technology and resident chef has more than 800 recipes on his blog, simplecomfortfood.com. With a kitchen stocked full of spices and staple foods, Phillips concocts all kinds of original recipes that he hopes will please his main dinner customers his wife and kids.
With summer finally in full swing, Phillips encourages families to bring out the grill and enjoy a meal outdoors. But you don't have to just stick to hot dogs and burgers. Check out Phillips' more exotic grill recipes, like Vietnamese grilled pork, grilled Romaine salad and shrimp diablo (pictured above).
To get you started, Phillips offers a few grilling tips:
Remember, grilling is different from baking, and you should always keep an eye and ear on the grill.
Be adventurous. Try grilling fish on soaked cedar grilling boards, or half a head of romaine or radicchio, heck even try grilling watermelon, peaches or an array of fruit for a kebab.
Put down the grill tools. Let the meat cook over direct heat for about four minutes before even thinking of flipping it.
Don't be afraid to use an instant-read thermometer to keep you safe from over or undercooking meat.
Remember, when removing cooked beef or chicken from the grill, it's best to let it rest on a plate for about 5 minutes to allow all of those great juices to redistribute.
Try Dax's "Chopped Challenge." He looks through his pantry for mystery ingredients and creates something delicious like this bacon cheeseburger flatbread. Share your favorite recipe creations below.

UPS in San Francisco is a worldwide package delivery company based in Sandy Springs, Georgia, US. Delivering over 15,000,000 packages daily throughout 220 countries world-wide serving more than 6,000,000 customers. James Casey started the American Messenger Company on August 28, 1907 in Seattle, Washington. The first delivery vehicle was a Model T Ford which began delivery in 1913. At that time Merchants Parcel Delivery was formed by merging with their competitor, Evert McCabe which provided a avenue for consolidated delivery to multiple neighborhoods.
Oakland, California was the first neighborhood to receive delivery service under the new name United Parcel Service aka UPS. The service began to grow in New York City, NY then expanded to other major cities on the East Coast and Midwest under the name United Parcel Service which was widely embraced in 1930. All of the delivery vehicles were painted Pullman brown to represent cleanliness and professionalism. In the beginning Casey was looking to paint the trucks yellow, but his partner Charlie Soderstrom mentioned that the trucks would be tons of effort to keep clean vs. painting them brown. Most of the trucks are built on top of a Ford or General Motors chassis with manual steering and manual transmission without a stereo or air conditioning. Most of the UPS delivery vehicles last about 20-25 years then their stripped down and the spare parts are reused, then the logo is defaced and the truck is sent to the scrapyard to be crushed under UPS supervision which are never resold to the public.
Mainly UPS specializes in time-sensitive package and document delivery throughout the world, but in recent years they expanded to service supply chains and smaller than truckload delivery. They operate on a hub and spoke model to where deliveries are sent to hubs, then routed to other hubs nearest to the package destination. Their UPS air network also works simularilyt operations are stream-lined for quick unloading and loading of delivery. UPS has over 425,300 employees; 67,300 in international locations and over 358,400 employees in the United States. There are over 240,000 employees who represent the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.

In the red: city unleashes its plan to keep Heinz from closing
POCATELLO, Idaho - The city of Pocatello is working to keep the Heinz plant from closing its doors, and says there is still hope.
Mayor Brian Blad had to act fast, so on Friday morning he requested to meet with the head executives of the Heinz corporation including: Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway, and 3G Capital.
"We would like togo in and talk about our Heinz plant here, talk about our community, and see if there is anything we can do to save the plant," Blad said.
While the city awaits a response from the company, city officials have been busy thinking of Plan B just in case Heinz fails to negotiate.
Both Blad and Bannock Development Corporation director John Regetz said they believe there is still hope to salvage the situation.
"This, of course is disturbing," Regetz said. "But, it's not that we don't have other prospects and options that we can and will pursue."
He said the announcement came as a shock since it was only a couple months ago when the Heinz company was talking about expanding.
"This is quite a change from potential growth to closing facilities, which is a 180-degree change in direction for the company," Regetz said.
Blad noted there is another food production company already lined-up and "99.9-percent" ready to move in. He said the initial plan was to have this unnamed company move-in before the Heinz announcement was made on Thursday.
"If we kept Heinz here and kept the 410 other employees there, it would add jobs. I want to be able to add (jobs) and right now if Heinz closes we would just be swapping, and that's not beneficial to our economic growth," Blad said.
Both Regetz and Blad said one of the reasons Heinz is opting to close its doors is because it will be trying-out a new business model where it will consolidate its production into one centralized location in order to try and minimize transportation costs.
Regetz said transportation costs are the largest cost in retail.
Blad said the Pocatello plant is unique to the company.
"For the past two years, it has been recognized throughout the world and the Heinz corporation as the number one plant. So to us, it doesn't make sense to close it," Blad said.
For now, Blad said the city will try and convince Heinz the Pocatello plant should be its centralized location.

With all due respect to Chris Carter, these comments were while he was a guest on Mike and Mike in the Morning. When they asked him about the Giants he said he "didn't know" why the Giants fail in November. Then they poked and prodded and said well give us an idea of what you think. He responded with what was posted by the OP. Then, at the end of his quote he laughed and said "really I have no idea."
I think someone just trapped Osi with a quote to see his response. The nature of Chris Carter's comments were not at all intended to talk down about the Giants and in reality, he didn't even want to make the comments.

Video shows suspect in thefts from Pueblo church
$1,500 in electronic equipment stolen, pastor says
PUEBLO, Colo. - A recently-installed surveillance camera at First Church of the Nazarene in Pueblo shows a man believed to have taken church property under the pretense of seeking help.
The church is on Stanford Avenue, just north of South High School.
Rev. James Murray said the church installed the camera after noticing a theft in August. A second theft occurred in September, he said, and the man is caught in the act by the camera during a third theft last month.
"We didn't make the connection until then," Murray said. "Each time he came in asking for help. He asked to pray, and we let him. Usually there's no reason to stand over someone and watch them."
Police said they hope someone recognizes the man and helps identify him to learn if he may be committing similar thefts in other locations.
Musical equipment including a microphone and an amplifier were stolen, Murray said.
He said the church will continue to help people in need, but the church's everyday routine will change.
"We do lock the doors now," Murray said. "It's not an open-door policy like it used to be. We'll get information from each person we assist and hopefully some valid ID so we can keep a better record of who we're helping, things like that."
If you recognize the man in the video, call Pueblo police at 719-553-2538.
