Maybe Yogi was right, maybe CSN&Y had the melody long before we recognized we needed it. With all this interest in things that were, glimpses of our past desires and objects of attention...it may be deja vu all over again. Kids who never bought a album drive ratrods with no parts past 1955 allowed. Manufacturers rush to deliver the retro version of what they think we want to transport ourselves to simpler times. HOTROD has put straight axle, gasser style cars on the cover and emphasizes a more basic, grease and dirt approach to car building(thanks Frieberger, it is welcome). M/T launches a magazine based purely on cars that are, well, old.
And if the lottery numbers were mine, I'd be plucking a beautifuly restored 57 Nomad from a purist, throwing on a Bell Speed shop front clip, straight axle, rear axle under the springs, fenderwell headers and just for kicks and grins, a nice tunnel ram through that virgin hood. Dream of my youth...the smell of burning rubber and clutch at midnight...wail of 2 4's wide open and not enough sense to keep from doing it again at every light.
Where are we going? What trend do you see dying...what is coming back? What would you like to see just one more time out "on the boulevard" ? Now excuse me, gotta go rip out a bench and install some SS buckets.....
I agree, Yogi was always right.
I think there is a return on one level, back to basic hot rods. This to me, is a return to the roots of hot rodding. Most of the cars that I was around in the 60's and 70's weren't the slicked out, freshly painted retro rods you see today in the mags. Oh yeah, some guys broke down for a nice paint job but we basically bolted together what we could find and what we could afford. I bet I pulled out 3 or 4 bench seats out of different vehicles to drop in some junkyard buckets, often 65 Stang buckets...... I remember finding twin 12 inch speakers in an old jukebox, they ended up in my 65 Stang, hooked to my first cassette player, a major leap above 8 tracks..........I ran a Harley rat for years until I had the bugs worked out, then I polished and painted it.....I could get into a rat rod myself....
and wouldn't you, like me, love to take your lottery winnings(dreaming big)and buy that restored GT Fastback K code at Barret Jackson, bolt on some Cragars, airshocks...turbo mufflers and fenton headers, grab a Led Zeppelin Tape and go burn the tires off?
My and your dream both, buddy........I absolutely love those old stangs....I've been checking out a set of cragars for the 05, I think I'm going to do it! Yeah, K-code GT Fastback, what a dream car...I sold a K-code 289 about 4 years ago, in a rough 64.5 coupe(not stock), wish I'd kept the engine, and just sold the car! I still have a 289 laying around with 12.6 to 1 TRW forged pop-ups with a hot Isky cam......I actually drove it on the street in the mid 70's.....Airshocks...... they were a necessity in the 70's, to get that ass end up and to get those montster 50 series X 15 Goodyear polyglass tires mounted on the rear. Your post sure takes me back......but you know, as great of memories as I have of those cool looking and cool sounding cars, they sure didn't handle that well, and the brakes ALWAYS sucked! lol
We weren't much different than the lowriders now...both eras' bounced along, just different altitudes. The highest cars I ever saw were during a brief fling at college in Olathe, Ks. Sitting in my dads 67 Newport, looking out at the rocker panels of a 57 Nomad...not 4wd, not a straight axle..these guys ran reversed spindles(what a neat look..headon the center of the wheel was about 10" below the bottom of the lower a-arm), rear axle under the springs...I loved it, still do. Check out Radir Wheels.com ...lots of jacked up cars. And the GT350 belonged to a buddy in high school, his dad was a body man, got it wrecked. I do believe it was a competion version? The spare was mounted on the platform where the back seat should have been, had a single loop bar with supports. I cannot recall if the 1/4 windows were plexiglass. He wrapped it around a pole, junked it out.......sigh.
I tried ball joint risers on my 65 Coupe, (in 1974?) but couldn't get the allignment right so I yanked them, I'm pretty sure I have at least one of them in an old gang box! lol I resorted to "twist in" spring expanders to increase my front end height so my 14 X 8 reversed Cragars would clear on front. I got smarter on my Falcon wagon and used the front springs out of the engine donor car (71 Torino) to get the front end up, but I wasn't going for that jacked -up look....I remeber Walker Continentals, beautiful , blue Glasspacks with a great exhaust note......I ran Appliance and Hooker Headers, at different times..... Remember the STP stickers, they were everywhere! Who actually used that crap? Oh yeah, maybe after your engine got tired and was smoking........ We sure built loud cars! I had 289/302's in the 70's and most of the guys around me were running big block Chevy and Chrysler. Back then, 5 liters was small! lolI remember a lot of cool cars being totaled is my youth....but I never did! That's just because I never had a cool car! LOL
And those twist in spacers would pop out...go flying across the road! One of my few Fords was a 60? FAlcon Ranchero...anyhow a early one with the concave grille. 170 Mustang 6 banger...rear axle under the springs, fronts were Mustang v8 coils as I recall. Front suspension was bottomed out at rest. Could hardly keep it on the road...returned it to stock height. This'll make you sick...worked on a 55 chevy 2 door hardtop for a year..jacked up, bj spacers,409 springs,rear under the leafs..gutted interior,no window regulators, no trunk floor(somewhere I had gotten that idea as weight saving,never thought to wonder about trapped air)..anyhow, got tired of it,rolled it outside in the alley and took a sledge hammer to it for fun, had it hauled off...course you could replace it with a running hardtop for 250-500 bucks, or 50 for a body only. big, big sigh....

As time goes on, certain cars gain status and value. I know it sounds insane, but we trashed out all sorts of "classics" when they were at there lowest value. You also need to consider that these cars were modified by teenagers and we were stupid and crude in our mods! I stripped a rough, complete, fully optioned 64.5 convertable Mustang and hauled the shell to a junkyard myself, in the early 70's!Also, those truly classic muscle cars we always talk about were being produced back then and our hot rods paled in comparison.
I feel like I'm hearing a story about unwanted women who when they are all used up they are beaten and then sent to the grave. All those cars ever did was give you everything they could.
We are talking of a time when tri-five chevys were as common as Honda Accords or Chevy s10 pickups are now. I thought a friend was nuts when he wanted 1200 bucks for his 57 2door hardtop,350 LT1(new),th350(also new),origional paint,interior, less than 60,000 miles. Mint Nomads were a grand or less, you wouldn't be caught dead in a convertible...they were for jocks that didn't know anything about cars. $50-125 was the going price for a 4 door sedan in great shape...up to $250 for a 2 door post...and hardtops were maybe $500 if that. Wagons, sedan deliveries...well, how about $35 for a 2door 57 wagon..it ran, and $125 for a 57 sedan delivery,tagged and running. I passed on 2 55 hardtops with straight axles(the shop was going under)for $25 a piece, didn't have the room for them. In '76 I bought a 57 bel air 4door, 52,000 miles, plastic seat covers,power pack,absolutely mint in and out..needed brakes and a state inspection...$125. Had a hard time selling it(guys offered me $100 for the grille bar only), until a tourist from Wisconsin saw how rust free it was..got $775...thought I'd made the biggest killing there was. At the same time, I passed on a 57 convertible..california frame and bumpers, black, supposedly a fuelie without correct motor and injection unit for $225...seemed like alot for it. Remember, roadrunners, chevy ss anythings, challengers, chargers...z28's, even 63 split windows...just used cars. I could tell you about the 63 split window race car, no drive train, $200...but you wouldn't believe me.

We absolutely loved everything about Costa Rica, the people, the mountains, the rain forest. It was all perfect and that's because we were lucky enough to find you. Your experience and professionalism translated into a trip that had I stayed with the previous travel agency would have ended with a completely different experience. The drivers and tour guides you set us up with were all professional, super nice and very knowledgeable about the area we were in. ... The fishing was fantastic, in 2 days we caught 2 sailfish, 1 Blue Marlin and a tuna over 100 pounds. The only downside to the trip was that we could not stay longer.

"Typical Morehead!"..................and he didn't even mean that as a compliment..
According to two NFL sources who saw the terms of the restructuring, the move, disclosed Thursday. involved reducing Manning's base salary from $10.75 million to $1.75 million. The remaining $9 million was converted to a guarantee — either in the form of an upfront bonus, or simply a guaranteed portion of his salary. That allowed the Giants to spread the cap hit from that $9 million over the final four years of his current deal.
That in turn reduced Manning's cap number from $16.35 million to just $9.6 million this season, although it does increase his number by $2.25 million in each of the ensuing three years.
Read more: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/fo...#ixzz2LMYLVhs8
So essentially he got a check for $9MM when they redid the contract. But he would have gotten that money over time anyway.
"Typical Morehead!"..................and he didn't even mean that as a compliment..
Unless he got cut.
From the giants perspective they shaved 9 mil that season but added 9 mil in dead money in future years.
Obviously we all would like both receivers on our team. Salary implications may not allow that. If that is the case Nick would be a no brainer without the injury consideration. Even factoring that in, I believe Nicks is a clear choice because he has shown himself to be dominant on the outside which is where big boy WR play (no knock on Cruz who is a real play maker himself).
No one remembers who came in second.
Cruz is not a dime a dozen WR. He has an exceptional gift. Yeah, he didnt play as good in 2012 as in 2011, but he still was very solid. He set the Giants all time receiving record 2 years ago. He had a 99 yard catch where He was the reason, jukin defenders silly and making them look ******ed. Nicks is injury prone. He is like Bradshaw IMO. He can not stay on the field. When healthy he is a top 5 WR in the league, but that only is the case for 6-8 games a year. Cruz is reliable.
Spin that Webb young Davis
Here it is. It says that Eli got the $9MM immediately.

Forget the high rollers of Monte Carlo, the hot spots of Melbourne. Gentlemen and a lady start their engines at the first Grand Prix of the year this weekend - in the rather more rural surroundings of Feilding.
The New Zealand Grand Prix, at Manfeild, is one of only two Grand Prix outside the grasp of Formula One. The other is the Formula 3 gala in Macau.
The NZGP may not attract Sebastian Vettel or Fernando Vettel these days, but past winners include F1 world champions Stirling Moss, Jack Brabham, John Surtees, Bruce McLaren, Graham Hill, Jackie Stewart, Chris Amon and Keke Rosberg.
The Grand Prix has been integral to the Toyota Racing Series since 2006 and is one of the biggest prizes for those drivers. The meeting is also the last round of the TRS season and the defending TRS and NZGP champion, young Aucklander Nick Cassidy, sits at the top of the table with a 32-point buffer over hard-charging Austrian Lucas Auer and Brit Alex Lynn.
With each of the three races worth 75 points, Cassidy isn't thinking the championship is a done deal.
"Although we've been consistent, it hasn't, to be honest, been the championship we hoped for," says Cassidy. "I've set the fastest lap in seven out of 12 races but only won once. That, to me, is a little frustrating."
Realistically, the TRS title will be a battle between the leading three.
Cassidy and Auer have swapped the series lead on and off and the points gap has never been much. They will have to keep a wary eye on Lynn as he's rocketed right into contention after a miserable opening round in Teretonga.
"I'm in the fortunate position of heading into the last round with nothing to lose," says Lynn.
Auer has been one of the most consistent in the championship.
"I feel confident going to Manfeild and it should be interesting," says Auer. "I like Manfeild but I still need to learn some things. I believe the team has a good set-up and good data for this weekend.
Italian driver Ignazio D'Agosto is a late addition to the grid as is Pieter Schothorst, brother of rising star Steijn. Making a one-off appearance, and aiming to make the most of a drive in the Giles Motorsport car vacated by Mitch Evans, is Grand Prix veteran Kenny Smith. At 71, he is the oldest competitor in any Grand Prix. This is his 48th NZ Grand Prix and he is the only driver to have contested all eight races since the TRS became the premier open-wheel category.

All really good with Rik, we even had a bottle of wine waiting for us :)
The house is simply amazing and the location is really good.
Good location, fully equipped and unique house with plenty of room. Everything we needed for a four nights stay in Brussels. Extra plus for quick replies from the landlord.
A great vacation and an amazing accomodation. Perfect for larger groups who seek more than a simple place to sleep. The place instantely captures your imagination and offers manifold options for spending time together. It is located super central and you can get everywhere easily. The basic conditions of contact, key collection etc. worked out great. This place can really be recommended!
We stayed at this amazing house with 8 friends for a nice weekend in Brussel. The house it self and the great location ( 5 minute walk to the grand place and just around the corner there are numerous restaurants and great bars.) made our weekend one to remember!
Loved just hanging out in the basement/kitchen which is simple but fully equipt.
Easy accesible by car and I would defenitly come back for another group weekend!
The accommodation in the "de Witte Leirsse 1557" was perfect!
We had a great time in Brussels and especially in the "de Witte Leirsse". The whole procedure (contact with Rik, pick up key´s, etc...) was absolutely uncomplicated.
We will definitly came back for a longer stay.
The Witte place was "our home" for few days. It's Incredible how being in the middle of everything, when you cross the door, you feel in a safe and comfortable ambiance. The big house becomes warm and looks as if you were living there for a longer time.
The host was very kind and attentive to any question and the people he puts around to assist us in case of need, were incredible helpful and quick in answer!
Good place to stay if you prefer be in the center, have room to do several activities -reading, work, cook-, have late conversations with your group and you have no problems in sharing the space (that was exactly our case).
We had already recommended the place and we will come back for sure!!.
Thanks Rik for everything!!
Very very nice little cosy home ! everything was perfectly prepared for us.
we had good time
We passed 3 days with 9 persons in this beautiful house and we had a very nice time, it's something really special, a great ambiance!!!
If you're a group of several persons and you want to stay directly in the old village, it's the best you can get!
Very central. Ideal for 3 or more. It's history shines out immediately; you feel transported back to 1500s Brussels yet only moments from its beating heart today.
Acres of space. It could comfortably sleep 8 but with larger parties there would be a need for some to use the second toilet in the basement.
The loft space is quite special with a great deal of exposed wood.
Again, a large party might have to toss a coin for the nicest spot to sleep (the own-door double bedroom on second floor) with the other beds essentially in open plan arrangement.
Pick-up and drop off of key is very simple and a big thumbs up for the 1557 overall. Well done to Rik too for the tender loving care that has gone into this historic structure - and I know he has even more enhancements planned in late 2013.

Discussion in 'Football, Baseball, and Hockey' started by roscoe36, Jan 1, 2007.
I was gonna say Ron English would be better, but his defense sucked yesterday.
How about Denny Green.? Got whacked today.
Beautiful article from Mike Rosenberg on the atrocious play-calling by UM in the Rose Bowl game. I love seeing the media take aim at that idiot Lloyd Carr and idiot-disciple Mike DeBord: Play-calling was truly embarrassing
My sentiments exactly: USC adjusted at after halftime, Michigan came back with the same plays: handoff to Mike Hart and see if he can create. I was yelling too that either Henne drops back into the shot gun or try a reverse with Breaston and Hart or any of those other RB's that were hiding on the bench involved. Problem with "M" is that they featured only four offensive players, Henne, Manny, Hart and Breaston. Arrington and Ecker get supporting roles in the secondary, but no one else other than Hart gets to run the ball... That worked vs the rest of the competition, but when M came up against the big boys in USC & OSU, they had studied the tapes and knew the Wolverines playbook. Now they did score against the latter, but they didn't get it done until the second half and of course were 3 points and few minutes short of being #1. ummm wonder if they had won that game if they would be playing Florida next week or OSU again???? ..better luck next season if they can get more creative in the offense, but the defense will surely suffer with the graduations...
I didn't want to blame it on Carr but blame it on Carr. Why couldn't he move Henne out of the pocket? Why couldn't we stop the Booty rollout?
I recall one one of the local announcers here in LA saying that the long TD pass to Jarret in the third quarter was a last minute audible by the QB, in other words a Booty Call.
Well, I think you are half right!
No they didn't!!
Tate, if Ohio State wins you go 50/50 on your Big Ten remark. That aint good enough. Ah, Ohio State is the nuts and will ream Florida a new one. Making me 50/50 on those 2 games. Now bite me!
I'm not as certain on the OSU game as I was on the U of M game. I said they MAY go down. I think OSU is a lot better than Michigan and I don't think Florida is that great. Still, the Big ten teams seem to do poorly in bowl games, so we'll see. Looks like BSU shoulda played OSU! :p
If OS gets another National Champ they are a full rung better than the rest. On this issue you can't dis' the Big Ten cause we got the "Big One". And that's hard to do because most kids like to go to warm weather schools. As for BSU, this is their first time in the big leagues, same for Rutgers and others. Let them get a few bowls under their belt and maybe they'll get respect.
I don't know what the 'official' line is, but OSU should be spotting Florida 10. There's no way they can hang with the bucknuts. BSU had a great year capped off by a great win. It'd be fun to see a BSU-OSU game. btw...I've heard BSU has a new mascot for next year they call "DARTH SPUD"
I like BSU because I have friends who live and die with them, but personally, I have no allegiance to them. I think it kinda sucks that the small schools don't get a real shot. I think the big schools don't play them because they have nothing to gain (in rankings or financially), and everything to lose (the game). Every time they play the little guy it's on the big guys turf (larger stadiums). I think the big guys know to stay away from teams like BSU. They actually do have a really good team (and a cool blue field).
Yeah those trick plays at the end of the game were monster. I loved that sshhiitt. As for you being right this time about the Big Ten, it goes in cycles. Next year try to not ruin it for Mich State. And UoM And Ohio St. You're such a hoser!
Separate names with a comma.

"Why did he play hard? Maybe it goes back to mentality. Are you that guy? You are rolling the dice with this kid but let me tell you, he is talented, real talented." The scout went on to add that Short can play across the defensive line but he needs to harness or heighten his motor. Source: Brad Briggs on Sulia Jan 27 - 8:01 PM

In Pakistan, another journalist breaks his silence
CPJ's report, Roots of Impunity, published earlier this year, provides a glimpse of the grim realities that journalists in Pakistan face when they cross red lines. Many journalists are threatened, harassed, and intimidated by a host of actors, including members of Pakistan's security and intelligence apparatus. Some of these cases get reported, but in many instances journalists stay quiet to avoid further trouble. Almost every Pakistani journalist visiting CPJ tells me that he or she routinely receives threats.

Hi, Everyone
My name is Victoria Primicias, and I paint with beeswax. In case you missed it, I have an ad on the right column entitled Beautiful Beeswax Paintings.
Also known as encaustics, this ancient medium was invented by the Romans and Greeks (arte cera means "wax art" in Latin). The paint is melted at 200F and applied in 620 layers onto wood. I love painting with beeswax because it has a luminosity and radiance that can't be replicated in other mediums. It also lends itself to creating wonderful textures.
My paintings are reasonably-priced, and I ship internationally. Hope you'll take the time to see them. Any questions, simply email me at the address below.
All the best,

A Right Royal Affair at Fort Nelson - Thursday, 17 May 2012
The Royal Armouries at Fort Nelson will ring to the sound of a 21-Gun Salute on Bank Holiday Monday (June 4) in honour of HM The Queen.
Uniformed gunners will perform the salute at 2pm as part of Royal Week (June 4 to 10) at the Victorian Fort – home to the national collection of big guns. Museum admission and parking are free.
Other free events throughout the week include daily gun firings at 12 noon and 3pm, plus a Kings and Queens' trail showcasing most of the museum's Royal Treasures.
Kids can get crafty in the children's activity area – including a chance to make their own shield or crown to take away. They can also create a portrait of The Queen for the Fort's gallery, and explain what they would do if they were the monarch for a day (£2 per child, 10.30am to 3.30pm).
There's also a chance to kill Bad King John in his Castle, with mini catapults (£1 for 5 shots, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday).
Café 1871 will be providing Jubilee street party-themed food, plus cream teas.
Fort Nelson underwent a £3.5m transformation last year, supported by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund. Other attractions include new galleries, telling the story of Fort Nelson – plus the Voice of the Guns gallery, housing 14 of the most iconic exhibits in the national collection. There's also a 19-acre Fort to explore, including original tunnels and ramparts.

text: A bill that would have allowed Maine forest rangers to carry firearms has stalled. The bill was sponsored by Republican state Rep. Larry Dunphy of Embden and Democratic Rep. Catherine Nadeau of Winslow. Many rangers themselves backed the measure, but the state agency they work for is opposed. The Kennebec Journal, reports that nearly 20 rangers testified in favor of the bill before the Legislature's Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee last month. They say they need to be able to protect themselves while patrolling remote areas and confronting possible law breakers. But Doug Denico, director of the forestry division at the state Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry, said rangers are rarely in confrontational situations and allowing them to carry guns could "alienate the constituency."

JENNINGS — An Jennings man has been accused of taking two sacks of live crawfish from his employer.
Jeremy Chaisson, 31, was arrested Saturday at a crawfish pond on Lyons Road.
Chaisson was caught with two sacks of live crawfish taken from his employer, Cody's Seafoods' crawfish pond, according to sheriff's office spokesman Christopher Ivey.
Deputies responded to the call after the owner located the two sacks of live crawfish in Chaisson's truck, Ivey said.
Chaisson was booked into the Jefferson Davis Parish Jail on charges of theft of crawfish.
This is the fifth theft of crawfish arrest reported by the sheriff's office this month.
Earlier in March, four Lake Charles men were arrested for stealing more than 80 pounds of live crawfish from a field in Roanoke. Last week, a Jennings man was arrested after a crawfish farmer caught him in his crawfish field on U.S. 90, just west of Jennings.

88-year-old crochets for a cause
WISE COUNTY, Va. - A young Southwest Virginia boy's struggle with cancer inspired an entire community with a statement he made when told of his condition -- "Don't worry, God's got this."
A local company even made a live broadcast of his brother's homecoming football game to him while he was in St. Jude's hospital in Memphis.
That was in the fall of 2012, and he has recovered and been sent back home, but that inspiration is still going on.
We found an 88-year-old grandmother who is still continuing to help other children fighting cancer.
88-year-old Beulah Hughes sits quietly in her sun room in Wise County crocheting away. She's making a pair of little booties that she will give away to a hospital for children who are sick.
She too has had her problems with sickness. She needed help around the house because of a foot problem. "Since I've been having my problem with my foot, they told me to stay off my foot as much as I could."
To pass the time, she began making little booties and hats as gifts. A lady who came to help her around the house just happened to have a son who was fighting cancer at St. Jude's. "She was telling me about how they need things down there. So I said, 'Would you care to take a box down there?' I sent over 300 pieces down to St. Jude's where they took the little boy," she says.
She's had eight heart attacks; a couple of them were severe. "The first two were terrible. I was in so much pain that I cried and begged God to take me home. I said, 'Please Jesus, take me out of this.' He wouldn't, and then after I heard about the hospital and how they can use things like that, I thought maybe that's what God left me here for," She said.
She had a calling to do something she loves to do while at the same time helping the littlest patients in their darkest hours. "When they don't have any hair on their heads, their little heads gets cold. Every time when I make anything like that I say, 'Please Jesus, heal them or take them home,'" she said, fighting back tears.
Something as simple as a little pair of booties or a little hat is sure have that healing effect.
She sent her booties and hats to St. Jude's. Other recipients include patients at hospitals in Gastonia, North Carolina, Kingsport, and Big Stone Gap.
She is also looking for other places to send them to.

Wow, that front end with those square driving lamps is horrible, the current one with the oval lights is much prettier.
The rear looks a Sonata

Kirill Ougarov:The rear looks a SonataYeah, I was thinking Korean. Usually the Koreans are copying the Germans.
New Kia Amanti? Hmmm nice.
this thing looks like crap! it looks like somthing hunydai made! u'd have to really hate america to buy this thing! lmao!
* * * *Saying the inconvenint truth others wont' say!*
The front is okay. I think they would have been much better of just giving it two single headlamps instead of the quads.The rear, however, looks horrible and like they just got way too lazy by the time they got around to designing it.
stickshiftin69:this thing looks like crap! it looks like somthing hunydai made! u'd have to really hate america to buy this thing! lmao!Stickie is on Motortrend now? I have been offline too long... Or is it not long enough?
that is so unattractive its not even funny. that thing is ugly and why does the rear end look like a lexus and a hyundai? yea great job mercedes. Thats awful. the CTS-V shouldnt have a problem spanking the new E63 AMG.

WTF?? MB, what have you done!
I like the front except the shape pf the split headlights. That looks like something Lexus would try to do. Just wierd. I agree with the sentiment that the rear looks very korean.
i thought the back looked kinda Lexus ES ish
Lexus headlamps much?
I really like the current E-class, it's just a really good looking sedan...this however looks frumpy.

I read a lot of stuff on the web. It's how I try to keep as up to date as possible with my professional and personal interests, especially around technology. Yes, Twitter helps with that too, but it's all too easy to miss something on Twitter when you follow a lot of people (I rely on saved searches a lot). By far the easiest way for me to keep on top of a large amount of content is to subscribe to RSS feeds in Google Reader.
When I'm at my desk, if I don't have the Google Reader site open all day, I'll at least check it 2 or 3 times. When I wake up in the morning, I'll check my GR feeds via a 3rd party app on my phone. In the evening, I'll sometimes keep track of new news via another 3rd party app on my tablet. In other words, I use Google Reader all the freaking time.
Today, my stats in Google Reader tell me this:
From your 394 subscriptions, over the last 30 days you read 6,517 items, clicked 176 items, starred 2 items, and emailed 0 items.
Since October 25, 2006 you have read a total of 285,200 items.
Now Google has announced that they're going to shut down Reader on 1st July 2013. Personally I think they tried to bury the lead by putting the closure of Reader as the 5th item in a list of 8, and by posting it just after the election of a new Pope.
I had a conversation earlier today about the value of Reader to Google, and there was a suggestion that seeing people's reading habits holding value when you mine the data (as Google does across all its properties). My stance on that is that they've probably got the demographic data pretty well locked down for the sort of people who use Reader – it's a minority anyway and likely fairly easy to pigeon-hole – so returns on that are probably diminishing. Regardless of that, it's a bad idea for them to annoy that demographic, which will contain a lot of early adopters and influencers in the tech industry.
Personally, I'm boycotting Chrome right now (although that probably won't last), and I was considering making a purchase of a new Android device, which I'm now going to give some more thinking time. Neither of those things will probably bother Google, but it's making me feel a bit better today because I'm pissed off.
I'm sure that by the 1st July there will be a viable alternative. None of the other options today have the ecosystem that Reader has. I expect that there may even be something better – it's been a while since Google have actively developed Reader and there are some areas where it's holding back the clients from developing new, innovative features. I'm not even sure that the transition will be that painful, it's just annoying that something that's so widely used and appreciated is going away while other, less used Google products are continuing on.
I am going to stop short of blaming the new Pope for this, but I think that Hitler sums up the situation quite well in this instance:

18 Bottle Free Standing Dual Zone Wine Cooler
Description & Highlights
Koolatron 18 Bottle Dual Zone Wine Cooler - Silver/Black
Store your wines in style when you put them in the Koolatron 18 Bottle Dual Zone Wine Cooler (WC18). This dual temperature zone wine cooler can hold up to 18 standard size bottles of wine, and it can easily store both whites and reds at their separate optimal temperatures for a better taste. Two (2) doors, one for each temperature zone, make it easier to access each zone separately without disturbing the cooling process of the other zone. The full width wire racks help keep the bottles steadily in place and can hold 6 bottles in the upper zone and 12 bottles in the lower zone.
Electronic temperature controls for each zone makes it easy to adjust and maintain the temperatures that are optimal for each type of wine in storage, while the temperature readout allows you to see the set temperature inside each of the zones. Soft interior lighting enables you to look inside the fridge and see which bottles are in there, so that way you won't have to open the door to see the bottles, which can let a lot of the cool air out of the cooler.

New boards are a little quirky for me at times also. When I am signed in the boards tell me I am not signed in and cannot post. When I have a message I want to respond to, I have to go to the main board sign in and then I have a difficult time getting back to the message. The board doesn't load the Swag Last page like it used to. It can be frustrating 50% of the time.
No PPR for me (said so earlier)
I'm all for a recount on the 3WR and flex ...it's fine with me, as long as we understand that it's still EITHER 3WR and Flex or 2 WR and Flex...Flex has been voted in already...2WR vs 3WR is a separate vote.
Yes, but the two votes had nothing to do with each other.
we voted on flex or no flex...the flex was agreed upon (that's done)
then Matt wanted 3WR's still...that was voted on and agreed with.
if everyone is angry about the 3WR thing I'm fine with doing a recount on that, but if we recount flex I'll be angry...that was decided on already before the 3 WR thing and it has nothing to do with it.
I know my vote doesnt count...but the phrase "compromise vote" is totally not true. the bottom line is that if some people knew 3WR + flex was an option, they wouldnt have voted for flex. Lawl is correct.

text: Hi guys! First of all, excuse me for my English. My previous bicycle (which is stolen) looked somewhat like a 'path racer'. I really loved riding it through the city! I bought a second hand bike in my neighbourhood and I was wondering if I could make it into a Board Tracker-style bike. I plan on riding it daily to work, so it should stay rideable... I Don't have alot of money to spend, so I will take tiny steps. First thing is to change the steer and search for an old springer seat and maybe bend the seat post more to the back... Does anyone have ideas or hints on how to get it sort of in the style of the old Boardtrackers?

Location: Corn Insects and Crop Genetics Research
Project Number: 5030-21220-005-03-S
Project Type: Non-Assistance Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Jan 18, 2012
End Date: Aug 31, 2015
1. An atlas of small RNAs will be created; 2. A website will be developed and publicly released for the visualization of small RNAs; 3. MicroRNAs will be identified, isolated, and evaluated; 4. Strand-specific, cleaved mRNA libraries will be used to identify targets of soybean microarrays.
Small RNA libraries will be constructed from tissues coordinated with ARS. Small RNA libraries will be generated in the University of Delaware lab using the improved Illumina TruSeq small RNA sample preparation kits, which eliminate all column purification and gel selection steps, are less time-intensive and more robust. These kits allow for decreased inputs of RNA; 500 ng total RNA is sufficient for library construction. Libraries will be bar-coded and four samples pooled and analyzed in a single lane on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 machine to yield single-end 50 base reads. We will quantitatively dissect the small RNA profiles across (a) tissues and (b) under stress treatments. Our proposed study will sequence far more deeply, with replicates, in a large array of tissues to give a comprehensive analysis of miRNA expression profiles in developing soybean tissues. By examining family member-specific PARE data, we will distinguish expression patterns between members of highly duplicated, conserved miRNA families. PARE data is semi-quantitative but any interesting expression differences will be validated by precursor-specific RT-PCR. Between the analysis of these conserved families and the many novel miRNAs, we will generate extensive data on miRNA tissue specificity, and these will be validated as described below. Analysis of differentially expressed siRNA clusters may identify loci subject to epigenetic regulation during development or stress, which is as yet poorly characterized in plants. The deep sequencing of matched PARE libraries will define small RNA targets and greatly enhance the information gained from other small RNA and RNA-seq projects. The deep sequencing of PARE libraries allows a systematic experimental analysis of small RNA targets. PARE is based on a modified 5'-RACE and generates libraries containing 3' cleavage products of mRNA, including those caused by small RNA-mediated cleavage. Computational tools are then used to compare PARE signatures to small RNA data to identify miRNA-target RNA pairs (see Aim 2). In addition to validating predicted targets, PARE signatures provide an important resource to validate new miRNAs. A database containing PARE signatures from diverse tissue samples will therefore be a tremendously valuable resource for the soybean community that will enhance the information gained from all small RNA sequencing data. PARE libraries will be generated from the same tissue samples indicated above, but because of the difficulty in generating these libraries, we will be able to make only a quarter as many PARE libraries as small RNA libraries.

a unique and indescribable relationship between two straight females
by Elfrado March 02, 2008
A relationship between two people, generally consists of talking about love problems, being each other's tampons, bitching at each other, giving love advice to each other, sort of like a BFFL relationship between girls in teen movies... can be between any two people, can also be used derogatorily towards boys/men who consider themselves to be in a bromance but are actually way more like chicks in their bromance, thus making it a chickmance. Also known as: ladymance, girlymance, (NOT sismance, that is just not used...), vaginamance, 'ginamance... there are many other names for it.
You and I have a bromance, my man, them two over their gettin' their girly on have a chickmance supreme.

i was involved in a situation a few nights ago where a few hives came loose and tipped over. we did not stop till we are at our destination ,we organized the best we could by climbing on the hives, unloaded them with the skid steer . we found out that some of the hives are not on the pallet straight and the guy wanted to straighting them up that night.. i felt it was a wrong thing to do and i suggested that he continue in the sun light which he did!

Avoid drinking alcohol. It may increase your risk of stomach bleeding.
Do not use cosmetics, sunscreen, lotions, insect repellant, or other medicated skin products on the same area you treat with diclofenac topical.
Avoid getting this medication in your mouth, nose, or eyes. If this does happen, rinse with water.
Avoid exposure to sunlight or artificial UV rays (sunlamps or tanning beds) while you are using diclofenac topical.
Avoid taking aspirin, oral (pill form) diclofenac (Cataflam, Voltaren), or other NSAIDs without your doctor's advice. This includes ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn), indomethacin, piroxicam (Feldene), nabumetone (Relafen), etodolac (Lodine), and others.
Ask a doctor or pharmacist before using any cold, allergy, or pain medicine. Aspirin and other medicines similar to diclofenac are contained in many combination medicines. Taking certain products together can cause you to get too much of a certain drug. Check the label to see if a medicine contains aspirin, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, or naproxen.
What other drugs will affect diclofenac topical (PENNSAID)?
Tell your doctor about all other medicines you use, especially:
- a blood thinner such as warfarin (Coumadin, Jantoven);
- cyclosporine (Gengraf, Neoral, Sandimmune);
- lithium (Eskalith, Lithobid);
- methotrexate (Rheumatrex, Trexall);
- a diuretic (water pill);
- steroids (prednisone and others); or
- heart or blood pressure medication such as benazepril (Lotensin), enalapril (Vasotec), lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril), quinapril (Accupril), ramipril (Altace), and others.
It is not likely that other drugs you take orally or inject will have an effect on topically applied diclofenac. But many drugs can interact with each other. Tell your doctor about all medications you use. This includes prescription, over-the-counter, vitamin, and herbal products. Do not start a new medication without telling your doctor.
Where can I get more information?
Your pharmacist can provide more information about diclofenac topical.
Remember, keep this and all other medicines out of the reach of children, never share your medicines with others, and use this medication only for the indication prescribed.

giants value quality and not quantity...they wont be trading down
obviously any GM would trade down or up if the price is right.
basically why I meant when I said the giants tend not to trade picks is that their recent history is to stay put. they're not like the pats or eagles who like to trade their picks all over the place.
It depends who is left obviously, but with our draft position at 19 I would love to trade down. I highly doubt there will be any DEs or CBs left worth taking in the first at that point, and depending on which OTs and LBs are left I wouldn't mind moving back a few spots for a mid to late second rounder
Giants may seem to have more holes this year, but you don't know how JR feels about some of the guys we already have. (Like Tracy, Ojomo, Robinson, Brewer.) You also don't know what FA moves he makes in the meantime. And we don't know who we resign of our former players. What if JR thinks Brewer is ready to start? If he does, he might not address RT in the draft or in FA, and that would leave a lot of us scratching our heads.
That said, if JR thinks we need more picks and gets a good offer, he will trade down.
Do not feed the trolls.
Why bother, the staff won't play any of the rookies anyway. You may as well take the BPA so that they can be ready year 2 or 3.
absolutely they'll trade down if they can, but the value of what you get for trading down seems to be declining over the last few years.
Something i was thinking about , and hoping maybe reese would talk to MIA about is trading our 1st to Miami for there 2nd's and maybe a 5th...
The dolphins could then secure someone at 12(maybe Fisher?) and then grab a WR at 19 like Keenan Allen? We would then have 3 2nd rders, a 3rd, and i bet we get a comp pick or 2 with OSI and KP most likely leaving as well.. We'd have tons of picks in a draft that has most underclassmen ever...
If guys we were hoping for are gone & no clear cut BPA's, then yes a extra pick would be great...But if there's any kind of a potential difference maker there then no way...

Federated Farmers Grain and Seed Industry Group has welcomed the development of an online tool which will be a big step forward in modernising seed certification administration. The tool will allow growers, processors and merchants to initiate, monitor and manage the certification of their crops.
"We are really glad that seed certification is being brought into the 21st century," Federated Farmers spokesman Colin Hurst said.
The new tool will allow growers of certified seed to complete many administrative tasks necessary to enter crops for certification through a website, reducing time farmers spend on paperwork and speeding up the processing time.
Mr Hurst said growers will find it particularly useful that the programme automatically records and pre-populates the paddock history where previous crops have been certified.
"It will go a long way to address the issues of constantly having to go back through your records each time you fill in a grower application."
"Growers should also be happy about the fact that they'll be able to track their application on-line to know when it's been approved. They will also be able to print off copies of their grower declarations."
Farmers will be able to view the germination test of their common seed line at both interim and final stages in real time where previously they relied on the hard copy to come in the post which had caused delays.
The website is being developed by Asurequality, which also manages seed certification in New Zealand on behalf of the Seed Quality Management Authority, a pan-industry body on which Federated Farmers is represented.
"We are in the final stages of beta testing with a group of growers right now and we hope to start a staggered role out by the end of the month," Asurequality spokesman, Evan Johnston said.
"So far the feedback has been positive and while there will be some farmers that prefer to continue with the current way, most have been prepared to look at this new technology."
At this stage, the on-line programme is only an alternative to the existing manual system, but it has been developed with an eye to the future. Asurequality distributed applications forms for log-in and password details to some 650 growers on the register of certified seed growers and almost two-thirds have been returned.
Any growers of certified seed that have not been issued log-in and password details should contact Asurequality at firstname.lastname@example.com

Probably not. When used alone, carpal tunnel exercises aren't likely to relieve symptoms, such as pain and numbness. And they don't replace other carpal tunnel treatments, such as surgery, behavior modification or wrist splints.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by compression of the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel and under the transverse carpal ligament at the wrist. A number of factors can contribute to carpal tunnel syndrome, including wrist anatomy, underlying health problems and patterns of hand use.
Nerve-gliding exercises — one type of carpal tunnel exercise — are meant to help the median nerve move normally, but they can sometimes worsen symptoms. If a median nerve remains trapped, nerve-gliding exercises can stretch, irritate or injure the nerve.
Despite their limitations, carpal tunnel exercises may be helpful in some situations:
If your doctor recommends carpal tunnel exercises, start them gradually to ensure they don't cause more harm than good.

Rush of people buying fireworks for New Year's Eve
SULLIVAN COUNTY, Tenn. - The New Year usually comes in, and goes out, with a big bang and lots of people are planning on ringing in 2013 with a fireworks show in their backyard. News 5 learned about the booming business and some important safety reminders as we start celebrating.
A colorful cart load of fireworks is how Carla Christian and her family plan on ringing in 2013. She says illuminating the sky on New Year's Eve is a family tradition of sorts, "We just enjoy them [fireworks] always have and the kids love the sparklers, the boom, and the bang."
But she's not alone, it wasn't hard to spot shoppers loading up on anything that sparkles, booms, or pops at Fireworks Supermarket in Blountville. Employees say New Year's Eve is the second busiest holiday. Which means a big boom in business and this year people are spending more and buying for a bigger, brighter show. "People are actually going to bigger stuff now. The last New Year we had smaller sales because I don't think people around here were used to bigger stuff," said employee Jason Sprowles.
News 5 learned the big rush in sales usually comes from people simply passing through the Tri-Cities. "A lot of them are traveling for Christmas, we do get a lot of people after Christmas and Thanksgiving," added Sprowles.
But while it's fun, the night is also booming with the potential for danger. News 5 checked with Bristol Tennessee Fire Department and learned burn injuries are a big problem, especially with children. "What most people don't realize is sparklers burn at about 1200 degrees," said Lieutenant Alan Howard.
But there are ways to avoid harm. "Make sure you have a bucket of water or garden-hose handy. Always adult supervision, and don't be under the influence of alcohol," added Lieutenant Howard.
Here are some more facts if you plan on shooting fireworks: They are legal in Sullivan County from 2pm to midnight on New Year's Eve. In Hawkins County and Rogersville you can shoot fireworks from 10am to 12:30am.
In Washington County, Tennessee, Greene County, Carter County, Unicoi County, and Elizabethton fireworks are allowed any time on New Year's Eve.
But you cannot shoot fireworks in Kingsport, Johnson City, Greeneville, Bristol, Tennessee or Bristol, Virginia City limits.

Shelley Carney and June Park teamed up to win the Canyon Oaks CC Women's Golf Club two-day Eclectic Tournament.
Jackie Schimmel and Mary Fowler took the second spot. Nancy Dooly and Jeanne Webb finished third. Jackie Drakulic and Vickie Spelts garnered fourth place.
One of the highlights of the tournament was Drakulic making her fourth career hole-in-one on the third hole. Drakulic also has the distinction of having made two aces with the same ball. She probably just carries it around for good luck to use for her tee shot on par-3 holes. Actually, that's not a bad idea. In an Eclectic format tournament, the best score of either partner on either day is used for the final score for that particular hole.
Janett Ott came in with a score of 88 to take low gross honors in the Table Mountain GC Women's Golf Club weekly tournament. Sherri McGhee shot a net 63 to win the net category. In their game portion, Jody Thompson took first, Sybil Janko finished second, Elaine Thomas was third and Elisa Senko came in fourth.
The Butte Creek CC Women's Golf Club held a Stableford format tournament for its weekly event. Irma Jenkins won the first flight with 36 points. Vicki Ellcessor finished with 32 points for second place. Barbara Joronen won the second flight with 35 points. Betty Dean took second with 34 points. The third flight was a tie between Cil Hauer and Jeannie Stone with 34 points.
The Butte Creek CC Senior Men's Club also played a Stableford tournament last week. Jim Gwyn won the blue tees flight in a card-off over Mike Ballou with 19 points. I guess rank does have its privileges, because Gwyn is the current BCCC president. Dave Smith was third with 17 points. Darold Adamson won the white tees flight with 37 points, but not quite shooting his age this time. Jerry Louie finished second with 32 points.
The Paradise SIR's Golf Club played its semimonthly tournament at Tuscan Ridge GC. Eric Sargent, Jerry Hall, Al Sheller and Tim Reasonover shot a two-best ball net score of 109 to take first in the first flight. Marv Banta, Paul Brown, George Bolles and Jim Banta shot 117 for second place. The second flight was won by the team of Matt Cabral, George Losada, Clyde Tynes and Mel Scott with a score of 112. Bill Wieger, Bob Wieger, Tom Caldie and Dave Moore shot a net 123 for second place. The closest to the pin winners were: 1, Hall; 2, Bill Wieger; 3, Chuck Marshall; 4, Marv Banta.
The Chico SIR's play their tournaments at Bidwell Park GC. As I mentioned last week, Alan Stephenson ran away with the low net score on the day. His net score of 58 was highlighted by back-to-back eagles followed by a birdie on the 10th hole. Peter Abolins was a distant but respectable second with a score of 65. Other winners were, First flight, 1, tie, Joe Gallaway and Max Hahne (66); Second flight, 1, tie, Ken Jensen and Richard Pascoe (65); Third flight, 1, Larry Wahn (65); 2, Gene Rideout (66). Closest to the pin winners: 1, Ray Navarro; 2, Abolins; 3, Gene Parker; 4, Lloyd Lee; 5, Stephenson.
Joan Wagoner came in with both low gross (96) and low net (71) in the weekly Canyon Oaks CC Women's Golf Club tournament. In their game portion, Wagoner took first, Vickie Spelts finished second and Nancy Taylor was third. Closest to the pin winners were: 1, Taylor; 2, June Park; 3, Lenora Chapman.

Before every Arsenal fixture, we'll bring you a Scouting Report on the Gunners' next opponents.
Former Arsenal midfielder Stewart Robson will give his pre-match view and you can get his post-match verdict in our Talking Tactics feature on Arsenal Player. We'll also hear from a journalist who follows the club we'll be facing.
As always Arsenal will attempt to dominate possession with their composure on the ball, movement and technical ability. However they must react quickly and intelligently when the ball is given away because Udinese have shown they are a good counter-attacking team.
Udinese are not a team who are always in the Champions League and, even though they have enjoyed relative success in the last half-decade, they are still viewed as a small club by the Italian media. But, with their success last season, they became 'the little team that could' and it feels like the whole of Italy is really pulling for Udinese. There was a sense of disappointment because most people thought Udinese had played well enough to get a positive result.
La Gazzetta dello Sport said: "We have to be proud of this side because they proved that courage, class and fantasy is still part of Italy's culture". There is a sense that Udinese came to Arsenal, played the right way, played attacking football and really tried to play. In Italy, the general analysis was that Udinese were the better team. There was a sense that if they play this well again at home then they can overturn the result.
Francesco Guidolin has been keeping his cards very close to his chest and hasn't gone public on his plans for the second leg. But I think it is likely that we will see their 3-5-2 formation - I think they will start with it but I don't know for certain.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Engineering Changes as an Opportunity
It's easy see unplanned customer changes as a headache, yet engineering changes also represent an opportunity.
How do you view engineering change orders?
It's easy to see these unplanned customer changes as a headache—the messy part of a process that otherwise ought to flow smoothly from modeling to programming to machining.
Yet engineering changes also represent an opportunity. They are a chance to work more closely with the customer on realizing the design the customer really wants. They are also a source for additional revenue.
In this recently broadcast webinar, Cimatron Technologies describes CAM functionality the company now offers to those die/mold shops that want to embrace this more positive view of engineering changes. As Cimatron support manager Dan Branch explains, the software's new functionality for revisions compares the changed geometry from the customer with (1) the version that the die/mold shop has been working on, as well (2) the version that the customer supplied originally. Comparison with both allows the software to incorporate the customer's requested changes without losing the changes the die/mold shop has made. Tweaks to the model to facilitate molding remain in place—even as customer design changes are incorporated later.
This freedom to incorporate changes has various implications, Mr. Branch says. Just one is that customer changes can be implemented downstream in the process. An engineering change order could be made directly to the core or cavity, without having to go back and start over from the initial part data.
View Mr. Branch's explanation and demonstration here.

V7 question
Was "iLabs" Beneficial to you? I can see this as a major selling point for ECC if they have done it right.
I saw in at least 1 review, a claim that more tools were added, were any significant numbers removed? The v7 page claims that it showcases thousands of tools. Thats really not a good idea for self study, when a beginner has to choose which ones are important....
I see they also supposedly highlighted countermeasures in this version. I havent seen the problem with this in v6, (except perhaps in some of my study material...)
They mention their "Pentesting" section, highlighting methodology and so forth, how well was this delivered?
Thanks in advance! Can't wait to hear some replies.

Jesup Society
The Jesup Society, named after Mrs. Maria DeWitt Jesup, honors those who have made bequests or life income gifts to the American Museum of Natural History. Mrs. Jesup left a $5 million bequest in 1912, which by today's estimates would be $100 million. She was a true nature lover and felt that our natural history should be preserved for future generations in our Museum.
You will be enrolled in the Jesup Society when you tell us that you have included the American Museum of Natural History in your estate plans or when you fund a life income gift, such as a charitable gift annuity or a charitable remainder trust.
Members of the Jesup Society receive:
- the member newsletter, Life's Great Gifts, which highlights upcoming Museum exhibitions, offers timely information on tax law and tax benefits and features stories about remarkable individuals who have left legacy plans for the Museum.
- invitations to exhibition openings and exclusive Museum events.
- other special benefits that are tailored to fit the gift.
Because all planned gifts represent an expression of lifetime commitment to the Museum, the Jesup Society has no minimum level of gift and membership is perpetual.
If you'd like more information about the Jesup Society, please contact the Planned Giving Office at (212) 769-5119 or email@example.com. There is no cost or obligation to you.

In a nutshell, forging forces the metal into a shape, whereas casting pours it into a shape. Due to the nature of metal and it's molecular grain structure, forging typically yeilds a stronger part.
Casting simply pours the metal into a mold.. not necessarily bad, but often there's more porosity with casting, a random grain structure, and thus a overall weaker part.
As for a forged slide starting from a casting, it's possible. A manufacturer could start with a rough casting and forge it into it's final shape. But I would think that in the end, it still wouldn't be a strong as a slide that started life as a rolled billet.
These are all rough generalizations - there are so many variables that can affect the end strength of a part, like the alloy used, heat treating and annealing, machining steps, and so on. I'd suggest doing some Googling on metallurgy, steel, etc.

A Transcendental Trip to Ohio
Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls • Logan, OH
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay for Two in the Goldenrod, Jasmine, Sumac, or Trillium Cottage on Sundays to Thursdays ($325) or Fridays to Saturdays ($350)
- Daily Country Breakfasts for Two (One Delivered to Your Room)
- Gift Basket with Game, T-Shirts, Hot Chocolate, Travel Mugs, Homemade Cookies, a Select Registry Guidebook, and Hand Warmers
Henry David Thoreau spent two years in the woods, contemplating life and what it had to offer. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat but don't have 730 vacation days to spare, clear your head at the Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls in Hocking Hills, Ohio.
Savor the solitude in a cozy cottage—either the Goldenrod, Jasmine, Sumac, or Trillium Cottage—situated on two private acres. No matter the temperature outside, you'll stay warm by the gas log stove or in the whirlpool tub. Homemade cookies and a tote bag filled with two long-sleeved T-shirts, two mugs, four packets of hot chocolate, the game Chat Pack, and a Select Registry guidebook will welcome you to the inn.
A great meal, like a great mind, is a terrible thing to waste. Rise and shine with included country breakfasts such as cinnamon-raisin French toast or farmer's casserole with sharp cheddar sauce. You'll be served in your room on one morning and in the 1840s log cabin restaurant on the other.
After breakfast, follow Thoreau's lead and take to the nearby woodlands. As "a region of streams and waterfalls, sandstone cliffs, and cave-like formations," says Lonely Planet, "it's splendid to explore in any season."
Hike to Old Man's Cave and Cedar Falls; rent a canoe from Hocking Hills Canoe Livery; ride the Hockhocking Adena Bikeway; and transcend ordinary relaxation by purchasing a massage at the inn's spa. And while this Hocking Hills hideaway may not inspire you to pen a philosophical tour de force, it's certainly something to write home about.
"Personal touches, amazing meals, welcoming staff, and at-home comfortable surroundings—we've already booked our next stay, making our visit to this retreat an annual event!"-- BedandBreakfast.com
