Sebeka 53, Tigers 51
The visiting Tigers lost on a last-second shot by Sebeka to fall to the Trojans on Thursday, Feb. 7.
The game was an exciting contest that saw multiple lead changes by both teams and a score that was typically within four points throughout. Unfortunately for PR-B, Sebeka was able to mount a comeback after the Tigers halftime lead of four points, scoring the winning basket with 1.2 seconds remaining.
The Trojans opened the game with a 3-pointer from the corner to take an initial 3-0 lead. PR-B tied up the game quickly with three points from Howard, who turned a midcourt steal into a fastbreak basket to tie it. The Trojans scored the next two baskets using their strong inside game on a layup and an offensive rebound and put back.
Bueckers tightened to score on a successful 3-point attempt, although Sebeka answered back with three points on free throws during their next two possessions. The Tigers got a basket on a nice inbounds pass from sophomore Henry Krecklau who found freshman Zach Struss open at the free throw line and used a hook shot to find the basket. PR-B found themselves down 11-8, but went on a 10-2 run, finding scoring from a variety of sources.
Struss made a nice pass to Saul Sasse who was waiting under the rim for a basket, then on a missed shot by Bueckers, Struss grabbed the offensive rebound and made the shot from inside. Sophomore T.J. Lukanen hit a 3-pointer and Struss added a 3-pointer as well on a bank shot with a defender in his face. After the run had ended, the Tigers were up 18-13.
But in this game, neither team would be able to extend their lead when they got it, and Sebeka answered back with two baskets before PR-B got a free throw and a basket from Bueckers on an eight-foot jump shot. After some back-and-forth, Krecklau ended the half on a positive note for the Tigers, scoring the final three baskets for his team to go into the locker room up by a small margin, 29-25.
PR-B started the second half hot, with a steal by Krecklau and baskets from inside the paint from Struss on an offensive rebound and put-back and a drive from Sasse. With five minutes gone by in the second half, the Trojans had yet to score a basket in front of the home crowd, before making two free throws, which kicked off a 7-2 run which tightened the game to 35-32 in favor of the Tigers.
Both teams traded baskets for the next five minutes, with Lukanen making a free throw, a 3-pointer from Sebeka, and then a drive by Howard ended in a basket. After a turnover led to a fast break basket for the Trojans, Struss was able to back into his defender and make a basket inside the paint. Tigers made two more baskets, which were answered by two by the Trojans to keep the game to within one point, with PR-B clinging to a 45-44 lead with five minutes remaining.
The Tigers extended the lead on a nice base line drive by Howard. As the defenders collapsed on him, he was able to dish the ball to Struss for an assist. Sebeka was able to take a lead for the first time in the second half with two free throws and an offensive rebound, which led to a basket. PR-B got the lead back immediately with a base line drive to the hoop from Krecklau to take a 49-48 lead with 2:34 remaining. For a young team that has struggled to win games this year, a lead late in the game is a step in the right direction.
However, the lead was short lived as Sebeka answered back with a 3-pointer. The Tigers tied up the game on another assist, this time from Howard to Krecklau as he cut towards the basket. The Trojans strategy was to get the final shot of the game, with a player holding onto the ball at his side at mid court for most of the final 1:42 seconds. This strategy paid off, as he passed off the ball and a Sebeka player took a wild, well defended shot, but found the bottom of the basket with 1.2 seconds remaining. PR-B was unable to connect on the inbounds pass for a final shot attempt, coming up two points short on the road.
Scoring summary: The Tigers were 20/48 from the field and seven for 10 from the free throw line on the evening. PR-B was led by Zach Struss with 16 points, who also led the way with 11 rebounds for Pine River-Backus. Henry Krecklau added 10 points on a 5 for 7 effort from the field. Konrad Bueckers had 8 points and T.J. Lukanen had six points. Beau Howard had five points and a team high 5 assists, showing leadership by finding open players all over the court. Cody Mager added four points and Saul Sasse had two points.

Some questions as usual ?
I am sure most of the guys here knows about xsssqli
Similar to this is it possible to inject xss code through an sql injection?
While thinking about this it has raised some questions in my mind
1)say a web site is vulnerable to sql injection,
is it possible to inject xss code in to the sql vulnerable part and make it vulnerable to xss ?
2)Also can we Introduce All the threee types of xss like persistent,non-persistent and DOM based with this ?
3)In general Assume if a web-application is vulnerable to sqli and xss means ,what are the other possible attacks
we can introduce with those vulnerabilities (like CSRF etc)?
4)And if you like please say a few words about xss as a SERVER SIDE THREAT ,so that i can understand about it as a server side threat,because some of the ppl around me just thinks it as a client side vulnerability that can just damage to client side..
Bear with me

Coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Eagles, we set our sights on the, so far, winless Cleveland Browns. Does that mean the Browns can't beat the Giants? We all know the answer to that rhetorical question.
We are again entering a game without starters critical to our success. Who is going to be the "next man up" hero today? Will it be Randle, Kuhn, or Stevie Brown?
Will Eli, Cruz, and Hixon be able to take advantage of the Brown's secondary? Will our running game be able to utilize the talents of Andre Brown and/or David Wilson? Will The Black Unicorn have a career day?
Speaking of David Wilson, is today the day he breaks free for a TD on a kick off return?
It's time to put the Eagles' game in the rearview mirror and focus on the next challenge which is the Cleveland Browns. How badly do they want to knock off the defending World Champions?

Chef Tasting near Charlottesville
The Lafayette Inn • Stanardsville, VA
Escape Kit
- A Tasting Dinner and Overnight: A One-Night Stay for Two, Sundays through Thursdays, with an Eight- to Ten-Course Chef's Tasting Dinner for Two with Wine Pairings ($209)
- Or, a Tasting Dinner, Overnight, Chef's Demo, and Wine Tour: A One-Night Stay for Two, Any Nights of the Week, with an Eight- to Ten-Course Chef's Tasting Dinner for Two with Wine Pairings, a Hands-On Guest Chef Demo, and a Private Tasting and Tour at Stone Mountain Vineyards ($459)
- Breakfast for Two
The Destination
The tiny town of Stanardsville, tucked away in the rolling hills of northwest Virginia, puts more on the table than its population—500—lets on. For starters, it sits just ten minutes from the border of Shenandoah National Park and 30 minutes from the bustling college town of Charlottesville, with a number of wineries, antique shops, and local artisans in between, not to mention historic sites like Monticello and Montpelier. But you needn't stray far from Main Street to revel in the bounty of the region. For proof, look no further than The Lafayette Inn, a six-room bed and breakfast in the heart of downtown.
The Digs
Built in 1840, this three-story inn and restaurant—with a charming brick facade, picture windows, and white wooden columns—is renowned as one of the best restaurants in the region, garnering awards like "Best of the Blue Ridge" and "Virginia's Restaurant of the Year." Before the mouthwatering begins, however, check in to your suite. Each Internet-equipped room features hardwood floors, a sitting area with a fireplace and TV, and a private bathroom.
The Diversions
Once you've arrived, checked in, and set your bags down, guests who've purchased the chef's demo will descend to the kitchen for a four-hour hands-on cooking demonstration. Here, you'll learn the ins and outs of an eight- to ten-course meal, wine pairings and all. All purchasers will sit down to a sumptuous feast. From appetizers to entrées to desserts, this special event remains the inn's most popular experience, a nine-year tradition that hundreds of couples before you have enjoyed.
The following day, after an equally sumptuous breakfast (okay, it won't be ten courses, but it will be delicious), those who opt for the private tasting and tour will head to Stone Mountain Vineyards, about 20 minutes away through the undulating hills of the Shenandoah Mountains. There, in the beautiful brick-and-wood tasting room, you'll sample a flight of wine for two from the local appellation, then tour the vineyards and winery to learn a bit about the process.
"We thoroughly enjoyed the Chef's Tasting menu. The food and the wine pairings were truly outstanding. Our only "complaint" was there was too much food!"-- TripAdvisor

Who the federation decides to send depends on their aim:
Sending Ponsero will mean that the federation will want to take a gamble to "play all for all" as we say in French. Ponsero is the one who is able to place the highest, yet we all know how fragile he is.
If they send Préaubert (although his chances look slim) it'll mean that they want to assure a minimal score at the Olys as Alban is quite stable.
If the federation sends Amodio, it means they want to prepare the futur as Florent has a HUGE potential. They'll want to send a possible futur champion there as a warm-up, to discover what the olympics are.
I think it's hard to tell who deserves to go as they all do, so it's better to think in terms of strategy.
Excellent analysis, Natacha!
Florent is almost certain to go. The national technical chief said at the end of the article that althought he official decision will be taken Tueasday, normally Florent and Brian are the two going.
Sorry for Yannick and Alban, but I'm very happy for Florent, he's currently my favorite French guy, this proved again that his victory at the French Masters is no a fluke.
I am sorry for Yannick, but he is now paying the price for his subpar showing in LA. How many chances he needs after all?
Alban needs to up his technical ante because when all things equal, he comes short artistically, he is just not a graceful skater. And even he lands those landings, they are not smooth, rather rough, so he is not getting GOE bonuses either.
Im so sad for Ponsero.. but he has only himself to blame for underperformind so badly during his whole career.
Im sad for BlancBouquet too. They may be mediocre dancers but their OD this season is fun and the Roisin Murphy FD is totally voidy cool, while the new pairing of Carron/Jones has been totally generic and blah for me. Will Jost split once again with his new partner after these dissapointing results??
I really like Florent, but I'm sad for Alban. He just really endeared himself to me when he said that quote about "I know I'll never win anything big." He's such a fun skater and I loved both of his programs. I selfishly hope Brian will bypass Euros so I can see Alban again.
Amodio out of the French team at Europeans !!
In fact, Florent will go to the Olys and Worlds. The other two will go to Euros.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Jenky, Dec 9, 2012.
He's been absolutely awesome. Congratulations Dez!
Now next week get that 10th touchdown! Go Dez!!!
Dez is a beast, let the haters hate
Completely agree!!!! He is starting to play like a man now. He understands now what is expected of him. He's earning his keep finally.
Turn it up a notch. Three more games to shoot for 1300 yards !!!
alot of annointing oil being poured. I love the way Dez is stringing good performances together.
I remember another receiver name of Austin haveing a 1600 yd season, and then slowing down considerably after that for whatever reasons.
String games, string seasons together before putting on the crown, Until then just a damn good receiver.
he is definitely putting himself into position of getting big pay day...but question still remains. Who is Dez once he gets his money and freedom to drive around and go where he wants with noone looking over him.
Alot of garbage being posted too.
You mean the same Austin guy thats going over 1k yards again this year?
Please tell me more about this 1600 yard season again.... Since youre making it up, make it really juicy.
the TD in the 4th qtr. to bring us within 2 pts. reminded me SO much of Irvin's TD in the SUperBowl vs Buffalo in Pasadena: skinny slant, stumbles out of it into a TD....great memories. If he can keep his nose clean, the sky is the limit:starspin
Yes.. More ovaltine please.
Congrats to Dez. He is beginning to gain form and settle into his role very nicely. Thank goodness.
Questions. Why can't we use Dez like that in the 1st half of the game? Why does he always go crazy in the 2nd half?
Kid is special. Love the guy. He keeps doing what he is doing and the sky is the limit.
I honestly dont know. Perhaps the D is giving everything they have in some effort to cover Bryant. Maybe it takes several completions to other players for them to get the coverage loose enough for him to make the plays.
Its to the point now where he is so dominate that Id trust Romo to launch it to him in coverage and let Dez go up and get it. There arent many corners that can stop him.
I'm eating crow tonight...... congrats to Dez.
I just wish that Garrett would open it up to Dez in the first half like he does in the second...
It's OK to admit that he's playing well right now and it has nothing to do with Miles Austin.
I remember last year people cried about Dez disappearing in the second half of games.
Now its the opposite this year...
I'd rather him show up when we need him the most (2nd half)
It seems like the staff runs plays that take too long to develop, leaving Romo no choice but to dump it off to the RB or TE. Then, it seems like the staff realizes they need to change it up, but they usually seem to wait until they are down instead of starting out knowing the line can't block and use plays that are designed to get the ball out quickly.
Can't see much from TV since the camera follows the ball, but in the first half I saw Pacman Jones on him quite a few times. Maybe I'm alone on this but not exactly a scary matchup for Dez.
You have bad memory then.
Dez is having some good game lately. IMO, it looks like he's learning different routes, so he and Romo need watch each other more.
Also, IMO...now that he is over that mother-son dispute, he looks more focused.
I'm more than estatic that he got over 1000 yards!!!!
now if witten gets 100 catches i'll be super stoked!

Seriously Spooky – Thrills and Chills at Fort Nelson this half-term - Tuesday, 16 October 2012

From ghoulish craft activities to Halloween tours and treasure hunts – the new-look museum has lined up a seriously spooky programme for all the family.
Fort operations manager Nigel Hosier said, "Fort Nelson is a fantastically atmospheric place to stage our Halloween events, thanks to the underground tunnels and the fully-restored Victorian buildings. Some local people are even convinced we have a few resident ghosts."
Events run from Saturday, October 27, to Sunday, November 4, and include:
Spooky Treasure Hunt – Follow the clues and spot the spooky stuff hidden in the museum galleries and in the dark, twisting tunnels under the Victorian fort. Includes a prize draw.
Get crafty – seasonal children's craft activities, including make-and-take sessions to create spiders, monsters, masks and bats, plus special spooky boxes. £2 per child.
Spooky Tours – Join one of our ghoulish guides for a fascinating themed museum tour. £3 per person, Monday to Friday only.
Might of the Big Guns – Hear Fort Nelson resound to the sound of a 25-pounder Howitzer, dating from World War Two. Daily gun firings at 12noon and 3pm on the Parade Ground. Free.
Museum entrance is free and visitors can explore the 19-acre Victorian Fort, complete with underground tunnels and brand new galleries, showcasing the national collection of big guns. There's also the chance to visit Café 1871, offering hot and cold snacks, plus Halloween treats.
Built in the 1860s, the Portsdown Hill Fort is home to the national collection of artillery, with over 350 exhibits from all over the globe. The museum's new galleries tell the fascinating stories of the objects, their history and the people who used them.
The collection originated at HM Tower of London and has been on display in Hampshire since 1995.

Gokhan Saki vs Melvin Manhoef 2010
- Written by Dave Walsh
Manhoef and Saki are monsters in the ring. They both bring a unique brand of intensity to their contests and whoever thought of matching these two against each other was responsible for an act of minor genius. Who wouldn't want to see two knockout artists, both capable of powerful, flowing, knockout combinations, go to work on each other?
At the time, Manhoef was a slightly more established name than Saki, though the latter's name was on the rise. Manhoef was known in kickboxing circles for his trilogy with Remy Bonjasky, and was also responsible for one of the most violent knockouts in K-1 history in his 2007 match with Ruslan Karaev. Rather frighteningly, every one of his kickboxing victories is a knockout or stoppage of some sort. His record speaks to spotty defense, however, and most of his losses have also come by stoppages, making a Manhoef match an unpredictable affair.
Gokhan Saki's first win over a major name in K-1 was against Alexei Ignashov in 2006. Since then, he's really come into his own as a smaller fighter in the super heavyweight division. He's beaten Paul Slowinski, Ruslan Karaev, Ray Sefo, and Tyrone Spong since then. 2010 saw him put on his best performances yet, with a swift destruction of Freddy Kemayo and a four round war against Daniel Ghita.
Were the two to rematch now, Saki would be a heavy favorite, but at the time of this match, it was a much closer contest, especially since they were fully capable of KOing each other. Saki wears the blue gloves in the bout, Manhoef the red. Note that, even though Saki is already small for a K-1 super heavy, he still carries about 20 lb over Manhoef and stands 3 inches taller.
Thanks to yaserakin1978 for uploading this bomb, high quality version of the fight with English commentary.
Both fighters come out cagey and tense, Manhoef more so. Saki easily takes the first round, controlling the pace throughout while Manhoef is content to block, coming in twice with long flurries. Saki's first left high kick, thrown in the opening round, strikes me as being unusually damaging for a blocked kick, and definitely foreshadows the opening Saki would exploit in round two, though he doesn't press the advantage after the first kick.
What's the motivation behind the somewhat risky left high kick? Two considerations catch my eye. In this bout, Manhoef carries his left hand higher than his right, leaving his right side slightly more exposed, and he drops both hands after exchanging. Saki's first down early in the second came as he tried to catch Manhoef on the way out. The strange part is that it looks like Manhoef's right glove was well up to protect his face. Manhoef nevertheless got a count and, even worse for him, seemed to have trouble resetting.
The MMA world was shown Manhoef's susceptibility to being KOed in his Strikeforce bout against Robbie Lawler. Manhoef's brawling style likely led to his taking lots of punishment, and the technical adjustments we see him making here, with a tight guard, may have come a little too late like, say, the changes Chuck Liddell made before his fight with Rich Franklin. However, Manhoef's exciting style, reminiscent of Bovy Sor Udomson's and Wanderlei Silva's, earns him a devoted fan base whose size belies his record.

Amami Japanese Cocktail Bar
This izakaya-style restaurant in Greenpoint offers all sorts of Japanese favorites, from yakitori to ramen to sushi and sashimi. Owner Nick Wang puts a focus on quality, and the restaurant sources only high-quality seafood and free-range meats. Amami even ferments its soy sauce in house. But before you order dinner, why not start with a signature cocktail, like the Ms. Daisy with saffron-infused gin, yuzu sake and lime juice ($12)? Notably, the expansive drink list also features sake by the bottle and Japanese whiskies. Now, on to the food: The vast menu includes every variety of sashimi, hand roll and specialty roll you can think of. If that doesn't tempt you, maybe the miso-glazed black cod ($6), soy-glazed pork buns ($7) or grilled squid with basil and ginger ($9) might. Or perhaps you'd like a steaming bowl of the tonkatsu ramen ($15) with pork belly and a soft-boiled egg—and another cocktail to wash it down, of course.
Venue says: "Join us for Happy Hour Mon-Fri 5p-9p - snacks $3-$5, wine $5, beer $5, prohibition era cocktails $8!"

Do the assemblies take the stock bulb? if not wut do they take?
(For reference)
I believe these type of projectors take the H4 bulb but don't quote me on that. Check out the product description on the website where you found the lights and it should list the right type of bulb.
ok well that gives me an idea anyway. ive looked at several different places that list them an they dont say wut bulbs they take
some take the stock bulbs. Message the company and ask them.
Separate names with a comma.

Jumbo Schleechum is a slang term used to describe the physical and habitual characteristics of a large, nasty, smelly, hairy, whorish, mammoth of a woman. A Jumbo schleechum is not as bad as a Yetti but far worse than your average band nerd.
I got drunk at this redneck bar in the middle of no where. When i woke the next morning, I had a phone number in my pocket. I called the number and the person on the other end sounded like a man and here name was Bosefis. This woman, Bosefis, could quite possibly, and most definetely be a Jumbo Schleechum.

Although one small areas of convection has tried to develop since then, it is insufficient to meet the organized deep convection requirement for a tropical cyclone. Yesterday's overnight burst of convection seems to have been supported in part by an upper level low, however Lisa has now moved farther to the west of that feature. In the absence of any other synoptic-scale forcing, the redevelopment of widespread deep convection is unlikely. No new scatterometer data is available tonight, so the initial intensity has been held at 30 kt. Without any convection to maintain the circulation, Lisa should gradually spin down over the next day or so before dissipating ahead of a deep-layer trough approaching from the west. The low-level remnants of Lisa are moving around a high pressure system centered near the Azores. The global models are in good agreement that this high will move retreat eastward over the next day or so, which should cause Lisa to turn toward the north in 12-24 hours. A turn toward the north-northeast ahead of the approaching front is possible before the circulation dissipates entirely.

VSH, ARW Among Stifel Favorites Pending Sharp Inventory Reduction
Expect lower-than-normal semiconductor sales this quarter, but a faster-than-normal burn-off of inventories, writes Matthew Sheerin of Stifel Nicolaus this morning, reflecting on what were already slower-than-expected sales of electronics last quarter.
Across the electronics supply chain, "inventory days in aggregate were flat q/q, at 43 days, in-line with historical norms; aggregate revenue declined 1% q/q, vs. a typical 2% increase, but inventory dollars also fell 1%."
The result of all that will be slow sales this quarter and a sharp clearing of inventory, before a recovery in chip sales comes in the first half of next year, once inventories are replenished:
We typically see a 14% increase in sales and a 1% reduction in inventory dollars in Q4, for a 10% decline in inventory days. Based on below seasonal guidance from virtually every segment of the supply chain with the exception of mobility, we expect sales trends to be below normal, but we also expect to see inventories decline steeper than normal.
In that context, Sheerin recommends investors look to discrete semiconductor maker Vishay Intertechnology (VSH), electronics distributors Arrow Electronics (ARW) and Avnet (AVT), and makers of "connector" components TE Connectivity (TEL) and Amphenol (APH).
Those stocks are all higher today, with Vishay up 1.4% at $9.31, Arrow up 1.4% at $37.68, Avnet up 1.8% at $30.71, TEL up almost 4%, at $34.66, and Amphenol up 1% at $62.41.

However, factors such as pregnancy and wide variations in body weight can bring changes in abdominal aesthetic that in many cases can be impossible to correct only with regular exercise and adopting a balanced diet. When the abdominal flab is already installed, with the presence of stretch marks, the skin of the abdominal region has lost its elasticity. in These cases is Indicated plastic surgery tummy tuck, Which can restore the aesthetics of the tummy region.
The first step in the surgery starts from the consultation with your tummy tuck surgeon. It will explain in all detail the details about the procedure, request pre operative tests required and you Indicate whether or not you have indication for the same. Patients with abdominal large flab, not responsive to diet and physical activity can really benefit from your surgeon. It shouldn't be in mind thatin many cases the patient does not have only abdominal tenderness, but also localized fat. Plastic surgery of the abdomen will not remove excess localized fat, but only sagging abdomen. If the patient wishes Also an improvement in body contouring, you must associate the liposuction procedure that can Be Performed along with abdominoplasty (also called lipoabdominoplasty), or be conducted separately, before or after the plastic of the abdomen. In many cases only performing liposuction may already be sufficient to abdominal treat laxity (which would Prevent the attainment of abdominoplasty Minneapolis and the resulting scar thereof), the liposuction causes severe shrinkage of the skin during Their healing process, but this option shouldn't be Evaluated by your surgeon, Which will tell you if this applies to you. to learn more about liposuction and liposculpture.
Abdominoplasty Surgery Process
A tummy tuck is Performed in a hospital setting , usually under general or spinal anesthesia, it has an average duration of 3 hours for its realization and requires hospitalization for about 24 hours. The procedure is Indicated where the patient exhibits sagging excess in the abdomen, that may Occur after major weight loss, or more Usually after the pregnancy.
The operation begins with the abdominal skin in by advance the surgeon excess is removed. The resulting surgery scar will be located in the pubic region and its length (size) will vary According to each patient. The higher the amount of this sagging, the greater the scarring result, which may have provided a similar extension to the caesarean section scar, such as the mini abdominoplasty, to the classical or complete tummy tuck, When there is greater sagging, and scar goes from one iliac crest to another Benthic, usually can be Within the hidden intimate patient's clothing brand.
In some cases, beyond the horizontal incision in the pubic region, the vertical scar can be necessary When there is a very large excess skin (especially in patients who underwent bariatric surgery), abdominoplasty in the call anchor. In the modified Minneapolis abdominoplasty , the patient has sagging skin, but not enough to be taken up above the navel. in this case, the old Navel site will remain vertical scar small beyond the horizontal scar. All These possibilities shouldn't be thoroughly Discussed with your surgeon prior to performing the procedure, so there are no surprises after surgery. the patient Usually savvy has a much higher satisfaction rate than that he was not aware of the limitations and possible results of your plastic surgery.
After anesthesia, surgery begins with the incision locations in the previously by marked the surgeon. At that team, in addition to Evaluating the excess skin to be removed, the surgeon Usually makes the plication ( "seam") of the rectums abdominal muscles, Which Usually are separated ( "diastasis") as a result of pregnancy or major weight loss. this plication will act to an "inner belt", reducing the waist and assisting in the aesthetics of the abdomen. After this stage, we resection of excess skin and repositioning of the umbilicus in its old location.
Depending surgery may be necessary the presence of abdominal drains that may performance for 24-48 hours and has the function of preventing the formation of Hematoma in the postoperative period. Completed this step are Performed healing and the patient returns to the room, where it will remain hospitalized for about 24 hours until discharge.
Abdominoplasty Recovery

Get to know Pennsylvania's wild and scenic rivers
Pennsylvania has four rivers that have been designated as Wild and Scenic. Some may surprise you.PHOTO: Mvincec
In 1968, President Lyndon Johnson signed the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, which aimed to preserve designated rivers across the country.
Upon signing, Johnson said, "It is hereby declared to be the policy of the United States that certain selected rivers of the Nation which, with their immediate environments, possess outstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, cultural or other similar values, shall be preserved in free-flowing condition, and that they and their immediate environments shall be protected for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations."
So here they are, Pennsylvania's Wild and Scenic rivers…
1. The Allegheny River. When you first think of the Allegheny River, "Wild and Scenic" may not spring to mind. This photo of the Allegheny flowing past Pittsburgh is how most people have seen the river.
Most never see this – the headwaters of the river in Potter County, Pa.PHOTO: Dincher
There are portions of the river where the flow is interrupted by dams, such as the C.W. Bill Young Lock and Dam in Allegheny County.
There is another dam, the Kinzua Dam, in Warren County. The dam creates the Allegheny Reservoir.
So the Wild and Scenic designation does not mean that an entire river is untouched. This lock on the Allegheny is at Aspinwall, which is near Pittsburgh.
In the case of the Allegheny, as with other rivers on the Wild and Scenic list, only portions of the river are designated as Wild and Scenic. This shot was taken at Harrison Hills Park, which is outside of Pittsburgh.PHOTO: scillystuff
For the Allegheny, 87 miles have been designated as Wild and Scenic. One stretch runs from Kinzua Dam downstream to the U.S. Route 62 Bridge.
"These 87 miles of the Allegheny flows through areas of narrow forest valleys, wilderness islands, and broad, rural landscapes rich with the early history and culture of the region. Pastoral farmlands, small towns and the narrow winding valleys provide a diversity of views for those travelling the river. Good public access and few hazards make this an ideal river for novice and family canoeing. Fishing for muskie, walleye, rainbow trout and smallmouth bass is popular," states the National Wild and Scenic River System website. Now, on to the next river...
2. The Clarion River. The Clarion flows in northwestern Pennsylvania. It is actually a tributary of the Allegheny. This photo shows a portion of the river that runs through Cook Forest Park.PHOTO: Zach Rudisin
Like the Allegheny, parts of the Clarion are dammed. This photo shows the East Branch Clarion River Lake and dam near Wilcox, Elk County.
The river is 110 miles long.PHOTO: Tim Engleman
Of the total length, 51.7 miles are designated as Wild and Scenic. "Several factors contribute to the special scenic value of the Clarion River. The unique landform (unique in the region of the Allegheny River Basin) of the Clarion River Valley contributes a feeling of intimacy to the river. The sinuous, relatively narrow river valley with steep sides and little floodplain provides little opportunity for long, focused views. The steeply forested hillsides of almost continuous mature deciduous and coniferous vegetation contribute to a feeling of remoteness in many places along the river," states the National Wild and Scenic River System website. Now, on to the next river...PHOTO: grendelkhan
3. The Delaware River. The Delaware River is 419 miles long and flows through New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware.
The Delaware River and Washington's crossing of it are an iconic moment of the Revolutionary War.
Today, the river flows by several major cities, including Philadelphia, shown here.PHOTO: Wolle8ball
Eventually the Delaware empties into Delaware Bay, where it feeds the Atlantic Ocean near Cape May.PHOTO: Tim Kiser
About 186 miles of the Delaware River are designated as Wild and Scenic. "The lower Delaware River possesses a great diversity of significant resources. A high density of population and recreational opportunities combine with a wealth of natural, cultural and historic features of national significance. The river valley contains habitats that do not occur elsewhere in the region. For example, there are sheer cliffs that rise 400 feet above the river. Southern facing cliffs are desert-like and home to prickly pear cactus. North-facing cliffs exhibit flora and fauna usually found only in arctic-alpine climates. The river itself provides habitat for American shad, striped bass, and river herring. The river is an important component of the Atlantic Flyway, one of four major waterfowl routes in North America. From an historic viewpoint, the river is one of the most significant corridors in the nation. The corridor contains buildings used during Washington's famous crossing, historic navigation canals, Native American and colonial era archaeological sites and mills. Just as important is the magnificent scenery in the river corridor," states the National Wild and Scenic River System website.PHOTO: Nicholas A. Tonelli
Here is the last river on the list…
4. White Clay Creek. The actual river, which is in Pennsylvania and Delaware, is only about 20 miles long. But unlike other rivers on this list, an entire area around the river, including other tributaries and wetlands, have been designated as Wild and Scenic.PHOTO: Lowell Silverman
"In 1991, citizens of the White Clay Creek area requested that the creek and its tributaries be considered for inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. The White Clay Creek study represents the first time an entire watershed was studied for designation. In 2000, the White Clay Creek and several tributaries—including parts of the East Branch and all of West Branch, Pike and Mill Creeks, and Middle Run—were added to the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System," states the National Wild and Scenic River System website.PHOTO: jcantroot
Here's a look at all of the state's Wild and Scenic rivers. We hope you've enjoyed getting to know them.

So I drive 400 miles all excited too see my ex good buddy Pirate.
Only way I recognize his shop is the Pirate symbol on the door.

"Who is it."
"Its 4th. Tim yo whats up buddy."
"Ill be out in a minute." :scared:
Hands me my gun out the door and shuts it. Slides the paper work out.
"Fill this paper work out and go away, you talk too much. Im busy."
So the UPS guy shows up and I was able too sneak in behind him. Boy was Stan pissed.
I stayed there for 3 hours turning on all his machines and asking him stupid questions.
The welding machine was the most fun. I never used one before so I welded too barrels together when Stan wasnt looking.
I was trying too make a double barrel AK. :confused:
He had his head on the desk and it looked like he was having a nervous breakdown.
So I took him too lunch. Told him he could have anything on the $5.00 and under lunch special.
He calmed down. :)

Pine River-Backus students attend etiquette presentation
Pine River-Backus juniors and seniors attended a presentation by professional etiquette consultant Bethany Miller last week.
Miller said her presentation was designed with the purpose of helping students to become silent leaders at school and outside of school.
"Think of the skills we are going to be talking about and practicing as they are going to equip you and make you more amazing and stand out as students and leaders," Miller said.
She compared etiquette to a ticket that would give students access to an increased number of opportunities in the future. She compared a world without manners to a busy city street during rush hour, without traffic signals or other guidance.
Miller began her lesson with first impressions, introductions and hand shaking. She introduced students to poor hand shaking techniques like the fish, the lobster, the politician, the wrestler and the pointer. She then taught students how to give firm hand shakes but without inflicting pain.
"It's the clasp, not the shake," Miller said. "I want a firm handshake, but don't hurt me."
Miller told students they never know who they might be speaking to and warned them to avoid poor behavior at all times in case they offend a potential future boss, teacher or some other important person.
"Try being polite, no matter what the circumstances," Miller said.
Miller also told students that they are seen as representatives of their place of employment, their school, their sports team and other social groups. As a result, they should not be rude toward others.
"Who are you representing? If I am working for a company, I am representing that company. If I am representing that company, I want to have a really good representation," Miller said.
Miller advised students against being shy and compared shyness to selfishness.
"Nothing is gained by being shy. It is only a loss," Miller said.
To help them overcome awkward conversation when first meeting someone, she told students to have 10 questions ready for any occasion. The right kinds of questions not only help keep a conversation flowing, they also help you to get to know potentially shy people and to get them to feel at ease around you.
"I want to come into a room and put everyone at ease. I want to go into a room and find the shy ones, because obviously they need to be brought out. You should have it be your rule that you should try to get to know every person in school," Miller said.
Miller challenged the students to go out and get to know three shy students in the school. She concluded the presentation by giving students blank thank you cards and challenged them to write a meaningful thank you to a teacher or a parent.
Topics Miller covered included rules of introductions, hand shaking, qualities of a leader, cell phone use etiquette and tips for writing thank you letters.
Miller is often hired to train corporate and professional groups in social etiquette to improve business dealings. Her presentation at PR-B was funded by a grant.

text: Does anyone else who has a NBS truck (99-06) think their horn is not loud enough? I think my horn is very puny sounding and it has been that way since I got it. Are there any aftermarket, direct replacement horns for 99-06 Silverados that are a little more intimidating? I'm not looking for a train horn here, just something more noticeable than my OE weaksauce.

Feb 28, 2012 at 1:09 pm #1286347
Hey Folks,
Just got my new pair of NB Minimus Trail Zeros in the mail this past weekend. (NB doesn't even have them up on their website yet.?)
These things are great. I've only been able to put in a little over 4 hours of running in them and plan to put a couple more hours in them today. The first thing I noticed taking them out of the box was how light they are. In size 10 they weigh 4.8oz per shoe (on my scale)!! Ridiculous light. The sole of the shoe looks similar to the NB MT10 but with less of it. NB has strategically removed areas the vibram outsole to reduce weight, increase flexibility and increase awesomeness. I did try to run in these without socks and did fine until I hit 1 hour 15 min. After that I got blisters on the top of both feet which soon became bloody wounds. This was due to the construction of the shoe's tongue. All of the seams in the shoe are flat except the tongue. On my second run I decided to wear socks and the problem disappeared. I usually run in socks, so this will work fine for me. Overall I love these shoes. Can't wait to be done with work and go running.
I'll update this short review in a few weeks after I've had time to put at least a couple hundred miles in them.
Cheers.Feb 28, 2012 at 1:11 pm #1846260

I have a pair coming in 4E for review here on BPL. The regular width are too narrow in the toe and midfoot IMO.Feb 28, 2012 at 1:23 pm #1846266
Sounds great (except for the blister part, of course!) I used the MT10's for trail running last spring thru fall with MT101's for longer runs and hikes. I found the MT10's to be just what I was looking for – i.e. something close to a five finger shoe, but with more protection for my feet as I run on a lot of rocky trails and some dirt roads with scattered gravel chunks. I find with the MT10 I don't have to pay full attention to where I land my feet. Don't get me wrong, my feet will let me know when I've stepped some where or in some way that wasn't ideal, but it's a tolerable pain. With the five fingers I felt that I was actually punished for landing wrong and occasionally ended up with some nasty bruises from wearing them (five fingers, not MT10s).
So I'm in awe of the weight of those MT00s, but I'm hesitant becasue I know there just isn't enough coverage on the sole for the type of running I do. I'm not careful enough with my foot placement to always make sure I land on the padding. What has been your experience in this regard. And what type of similar shoes have you used in the past to compare? What types of terrain are you using them on and do you plan to use them on in the future.
Man, 4.8oz. I'm jealous. Love light shoes. It's like a whole different sport when you get that light on your feet, especially for hill climbing.Feb 28, 2012 at 1:58 pm #1846298

I've been wearing a new pair of MT110s since the first week of Jan. Simply the best shoe I have ever worn. I seriously think I can do longer days due to the these shoes.Feb 28, 2012 at 2:14 pm #1846305
Not that I want to thread drift, but would you say the rubber on the MT110 is sticky? I know it's touted to be stickier with better treads than the MT101s, but lets be honest the bar was pretty low there. I love my 101's but i find myself not wearing them in certain situations because the rubber is pretty sub-par. I'm eyeing a pair of innov8's or the upcoming S-Lab Senses as potential replacements…or perhaps the MT110s as a good upgrade if the rubber is good.Feb 28, 2012 at 7:07 pm #1846452

those Sir are indeed light! I'd love to try a little lighter shoe, but am afraid those would be simply too light for meFeb 28, 2012 at 7:41 pm #1846479
Very true Eugene. Won't let that stop me from buying a good shoe though (assuming of course that it is a good shoe). I've got plenty of gear that cost me >$200 that won't see near the use a good pair of shoes will. Sadly I've got more than $200 worth of shoes that I don't even use anymore as I've found others that I like much better.
My current shoes of choice are starting to look like a bargain at under $70/pair.

Looks like the other new shoe is the MO10 "New Balance Minimus Multi-Sport MO10".
I have the MT10 shoes, and they might be a little "too" light for hiking. These MO10 add "Water-Resistant Synthetic/Mesh Upper", might work well for those looking to hike rather than run.Feb 29, 2012 at 8:13 am #1846662
Great conversation going here.
I was able to get in another couple hours in the Zeros last night and they continue to preform great. I'm more than happy to answer questions about the New Balance Zeros, MT10s and/or 110s as I use all three pairs of shoes in my running and hiking.
For reference I've also tried the Brooks Pure Grit and Inov8s F-Lite 195s. After running in the MT10s the Brooks felt like I was wearing platform shoes. I did like the F-lites. Great tread for mixed trail and road but I found them to be too narrow in the foot box. I've never run in the Five Fingers. I tried them on and didn't like how they forced my toes to splay. For my preferences and needs I find that I like the moccasin approach to minimalist footwear as opposed to the glove approach
@ Chris. Yes, one of the many reasons you gotta love NB is the availability of multiple widths. Also, I'm curious to hear your thoughts on these kicks after you've had some time to abuse them. Let us know.
@ Nathan. Great questions.
A little about me and how I run.
I started running track and cross country at age 13 and this spring will mark 20 years of running. I live in Southern California, so it's rare that I have to deal with cold or rain. I try to do as much of my running on chunky mountain single track trails as possible but most of my runs also involve fire road and street. I view streets as the crap I deal with on the way to and from trails. I love running up hill. In fact it's a family tradition. During the week I keep my runs under 3 hours and take a day off between runs. On the weekend I try to do two runs with one of them going well over 3 hours
I've have been running in the NB MT10s for the past 11 months and have loved them. But as I've progressed with my running I've wanted something more minimal and closer to a barefoot feel for my general training. With the Zero, NB has achieved just that. Lots of ground feel with protection. The Zero is very similar to the MT10 and if the MT10 has worked for you the Zero could be a winner. I find that the Zeros have more foam padding and less vibram sole than the MT10. Be aware that the MT10 has a 4mm drop and the zero has a 0mm drop (obviously) and I (my calves) have noticed this change on runs. I should probably ease my way into these shoes but that's no fun. I'm just amazed how much difference 4mm can make. Also, with the removal of a majority of the vibram outsole the arch support has been greatly reduced. I like this. Others my not.
I plan to use the Zeros as my main training shoe for runs under 3 hours (or less than 20 miles). For runs longer than that I will use the NB 110 (also an amazing shoe) which I use for hiking too. As of now I don't know that I would use the Zeros for long hiking days but maybe for a weekend SUL trip.
@ Eugene. That's crazy dude! I can't believe that the s-labs senses are going to retail for $200. Those shoes better come with a second pair of shoes for that price. Ha.Feb 29, 2012 at 9:40 am #1846715

ah nuts, running warehouse doesn't have wide sizes available… can't wait to try them out.Feb 29, 2012 at 12:36 pm #1846842
This is very unlike Running Warehouse to not carry extra widths. Must be because the shoes are so new. You might contact them about when they expect to get the wider sizes in.Apr 17, 2012 at 1:44 pm #1868215
Hey BPLers,
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up on the lack of durability on the NB Minimus Trail Zeros. After less than 100 miles they started to develop holes in the pinkie toe area on both shoes (first the left, then right). It is not uncommon for me to make holes like these in shoe uppers but this is the first time it's happen in less than 400 miles; let alone less than 100 miles. Anyone else have durability issues with these? I love pretty much everything else about these shoes.
As a quick remedy I tried using K tape. The tape pealed off before I completed one mile. So today I used some silicone glue and patching fabric from my sleeping pad to make some patches. I'll let you know how it works.Apr 17, 2012 at 1:47 pm #1868216
Here's a pic of the repair job I did to patch the holes.Apr 17, 2012 at 3:11 pm #1868246

@eugeneiusLocale: Nuevo Mexico
I checked these out last Friday in Flagstaff and the Trail Zero is not a legit trail running shoe, no doubt about that.
It didn't take more than a second to realize how incredibly lacking in durability they are. These would be great for strides out on a grassy field or on groomed recreation areas at best.
The retail price is laughable.

orange rope........
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
orange rope........
I personally use the denim thread for sewing with denim or jeans that I've picked up at Wal Mart- our only source here in my town to get any sewing items. At one time they carried the blue denim color and also the dusty gold color like you see on a lot of jeans. I think you could also use the button thread, it is heaviner and stronger than regular thread. I also use my jeans needle (Just for sewing on denim) and sew the denim on my Bernina 930. I made DD a denim jelly roll design quilt for Christmas and my son a denim pineapple design quilt several years ago. I did NOT add batting to either, because of the thickness and weight of the denim. I also did not quilt either, but tied both with emb. thread. Post when you finish, would love to see it, good luck.
I'll probably get a blast for this -- but I use Guterman polyester -- I use this for almost everything anymore. I have about 20 machines (16 working) and this has become my standard.
Do you have any idea what size that thread is? Some of the Gutermann thread we have is #50 which seems to work very well in most of my vintage machines.
I have found that the reg. coats & clark thread does not hold up very good , I did mine on a kenmore serger back in the late 90's, did not last, the thread just didnt hold { resewn the blocks } .Then son was using it and was stolen from his truck. I used all differnt colors of threads My singer 101 sews with the heavier thread ,guess its time to do another one? DottieBug Ohhhh I use the jeans thread the off colored orange one
I have made several denim quilts, including a "cathedral window" with red bandana in the middle, and I just used C&C 's All Purpose Dual Duty thread.
Yooper32 aka: Donna B
I have made two denium quilts for my grandson and son-in-law....I used my Singer 201....
I haven't made a denim quilt, but I am wondering about topstitch thread. It's a thicker thread than 50 weight and I think Gutterman makes a lot of it. You would need a bigger needle, of course.
I made a denim quilt and just used regular blue thread. Don't remember what brand was a large cone tho.
The C&C Dual Duty XD HEAVY thread I'm using now requires either a size 16 or 18 needle. If you use smaller the thread binds in the eye.

I had been feeding my 2 hives for the past week. I felt after looking at 1 of the hives that they may have enough and I didn't want them to start filling the brood nest. My queens just began to lay again after I removed the Apiguard, and at the time, started to feed. For the 3 weeks during the treatment there have been no eggs in either hive. So I am not sure if the feeding also encouraged the Queens to begin again, or if it was from removing the Apiguard.
Since I began feeding, should I continue at this time or not? Especially since I just read that during a nectar flow(or feeding time), queens will lay more. Thanks, juzzerbee

I made and deployed about a dozen of these around 6 weeks ago...
I call it the "Bottom Board of Death"
I didn't know at the time if they would work at all, but as you can see from the dead beetles in the lower left quadrant that it does at least work to some extent.
As you can see it is a screened bottom board (or inner cover) made of two pieces of window screen with a space between them.
In each of the inner corners there is a small hole (made with a #16 framing nail) big enough for hive beetles to go through but too small for bees.
The idea is that the bees naturally crowd the beetles into corners, the beetles get into the space between the screens and either can't figure out how to get out, or the bees don't let them out, and they die of starvation/dehydration. There is no corresponding corner structure inside of the trap to help the beetles even find their way back to the hole.
The advantages that this design has over other traps -
No maintenance, you could leave it installed all year.
It doubles as an IPM screened bottom board - the small screen holes don't let SHB enter, but still let mites fall out.
It contains no oil, bait, or poison. Oil traps are nasty, and if you don't empty them they could probably cause bees to abscond. Oil kills bees at least as well as it kills beetles. In this trap they just dry up and die.
Other traps rely on the beetles being clumsy enough to fall in - this one takes advantage of their natural tendancy to be crowded into corners by the bees.
I knocked these together - as simply as possible - just to see if it would work at all and to get an idea of what needs to be different. Obviously a finished design could, and should incorporate things like, a convenient way to install a mite count/bottom closure board, and a landing board, and a plug to empty out dead beetles. But at this point I don't really care about those things - I would just like to figure out how to make it better at trapping hive beetles.
Things that I think might make it better at trapping beetles:
The original design has trap entrance holes on both the top and bottom - the idea being that beetles trying to enter the hive from the bottom would enter the trap from the outside (which they probably do) but I suspect that more of them blunder out through those openings than they are worth. Also, when used as an inner cover the bees propolize the holes shut on the inside surface, so they don't work - but it still traps some beetles which are trying to enter the hive from the outside - but not very many. They don't propolize it when used as a bottom board BTW.
I think that the grid structure that funnels the beetles into the trap might work better if it was taller - or it might also work better if there was a small piece of sheet metal (2"x2" maybe) stapled on as a roof over the area where the grids cross. The point of either would be to make it easier for the bees to crowd the beetles into the holes. There also might be a more optimum shape for the crowding area.
Holes in the outside corners might work just as well, and would be a simpler design - I didn't try them this time, because I reasoned (probably incorrectly) that the beetles would find their way out through them more easily. But in retrospect, in a reasonably strong hive the bees would probably hold them in until they starved.
More space between the screens might be better - or worse. It would let it hold more dead beetles in any event.
I would certainly be interested in any improvements that other people come up with.
I wouldn't be surprised if someone else hasn't already done something like this, but I have never seen any such and I came up with it independently. I wish for anyone and everyone that wants to freely use, or modify it in any way they want - For personal, commercial, or retail use. Just don't try to patent (for what that would be worth) anything based upon this design or I will claim "prior art."
This is not going to be any kind of a magic bullet, but every little bit helps. No matter what else you do - weak, queenless, underfed, robbed out, mite ridden, or diseased colonies are going to secumb to SHB in the south. This is just one more arrow in the quiver.

UTSA Roadrunners at Baylor
Roadrunners fall to Baylor, Stanford in NCAA Regional play
(June 6, 2005)--The fairy-tale finish to the UTSA baseball season ended Sunday in Waco, Texas, with a 6-2 loss to perennial baseball powerhouse Stanford.
The Roadrunners faced the Stanford Cardinal in the 11 a.m. elimination game of the double-elimination Waco Regional. UTSA starter Steven Vasquez kept the Cardinal off balance through the first few innings, before the Stanford squad managed to manufacture a run in the third, scoring on a sacrifice fly to left field.

Stanford left fielder Chris Lewis added a bit of insurance in the fifth with a solo shot to left, but it was first baseman John Mayberry who put the game out of reach. With two outs and Michael Taylor at second, the Roadrunners gave an intentional pass to clean-up hitter Jed Lowrie to get to Mayberry. Mayberry then hammered a three-run home run to left.
Michael McKennon put UTSA on the board in the seventh with a two-run blast to right.
The Roadrunners nearly matched Stanford in hits, but never managed to string them together, stranding seven runners. San Antonio native Matt Manship came on in the seventh to snuff out the last UTSA rally.
The loss followed on the heels of an 8-3 loss to host Baylor Saturday night. The Bears are the No. 4 national seed in the NCAA Tournament. Junior shortstop Ryan Crew led the Roadrunners at the plate during the two games, going 5 for 7.
The NCAA Regional appearance marked the second for UTSA in school history and the first since 1994.

Everything you ever wanted to know about Champagne for this New Year's Eve.
"Champagne for my real friends, real pain for my sham friends."—Tom Waits
Picture a dank cellar in the Champagne region of France around the year 1700. A blind monk lifts a goblet of wine he has made, tastes it, then cries out, "Come, brothers! Hurry! I am drinking stars!" as if he had just discovered the orgasm. The monk was Dom Pérignon, and much to his surprise the wine had bubbles in it. Thus, booze mythologists would have us believe, the wine known as champagne was born. Today bubbly from France's Champagne region is the most revered glassful in the world, the drink of success, excess, romance and debauchery.
The Juice on the Juice
BLANC DE BLANCS: The lightest and most delicate of champagnes, blanc de blancs is made with only chardonnay grapes. Pictured: Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 1998 ($250).
BRUT: Your basic delicious dry champagne, such as Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Brut (pictured, $35).
CHAMPAGNE: (1) A sparkling wine made exclusively in France's Champagne region from the following grapes: pinot noir, pinot meunier and chardonnay. (2) Slang: an underage girl at a party (full of alcohol, not aged 21 years).
CHAMPAGNE BRAIN: The hangover headache unique to bubbly.
CHAMPAGNE ROOM: The back room at a strip club, where sex never ever happens.
CUVÉE: A blend of wines, mixed by winemakers who aim for a consistent flavor year after year no matter the harvest. A bottle of bubbly may contain 60 different wines.
DEMI-SEC: Moderately sweet (as in not brut).
PRESTIGE CUVÉE: A term used to describe a champagne house's highest offering. Examples: Dom Pérignon from Moët & Chandon and Cristal from Louis Roederer.
PROSECCO: Italy's most famous sparkling wine is cheaper and drier than champagne and often used as a substitute. It's the chief ingredient in a wonderful panty-dropper called the bellini (prosecco and white-peach puree). Pictured: Ruggeri & C. Gold Label Prosecco di Valdobbiadene ($15).
ROSÉ: Pink bubbly. A little red wine is blended into the mix, imparting color and berry notes.
VINTAGE: A single-year bottling made when the head winemaker at a champagne house thinks the grapes from a particular harvest are outstanding. The wine must be aged at least three years and will always be bottled with a year on it. Pictured: Krug 1998 ($300).
For him FRENCH 75: Named for the 75-millimeter gun the French army used in WWI, this refresher starts with a shot and a half of gin, half a shot of fresh lemon juice and a teaspoon of simple syrup (or powdered sugar), shaken with ice and strained into a chilled flute. Fill the rest of the way with champagne, and garnish with a lemon twist.
For her CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL: Drop a sugar cube into a chilled champagne flute and add a dash of Angostura bitters. Fill the flute with champagne, and garnish with a lemon twist. If she likes them stiffer, float half a shot of cognac on top. Replace the brandy with Campari and you have yourself a different drink: the good-night kiss.
For the party
CHAMPAGNE PUNCH: Before the party, mix and chill your base: a cup of Grand Marnier, a cup of cognac, half a cup of Chambord and two cups of pineapple juice. When your guests arrive, pour the base into a large bowl, add big hunks of ice, then add a quart of ginger ale and two bottles of decent champagne. Serves 12.
Where do the bubbles in bubbly come from? The second fermentation. You take still wine, add yeast and sugar, then seal it from air (sugar + yeast = alcohol + CO2 bubbles). Voilà.
Is it true that the smaller the bubbles, the better the champagne? Most experts believe yes: The longer the champagne is aged, the smaller the bubbles get.
Approximately how many bubbles are in a bottle? Forty-nine million (no, we didn't make this up).
Is California sparkling wine any good? Absolutely, and it's cheaper than champagne, too (only bubbly from the Champagne region of France can technically be called champagne). Try Iron Horse 2004 Classic Vintage Brut ($33).
Biggest champagne fan ever? That would be Marilyn Monroe. Biographer George Barris said she breathed champagne "as if it were oxygen."

Ecostore, a company that manufactures environmentally friendly products, is shaping up to be the latest in a line of New Zealand business success stories.
It is now being stocked by United States supermarkets.
Lawnmower brand Masport is also revelling in having cracked international markets.
It's great to see businesses such as these getting coverage in the media.
Every now and then, businesspeople need to have a hero to look up to.
And for some of us small businesses, those heroes we look up to are those larger businesses that have been able to make and take their products or services overseas.
Export is necessary for our economic growth and is the only way to bring more money into our economy. And everyone knows a good local exporter will create jobs, advertise the area to the world and champion a model for other businesses to use.
Being internationally competitive encourages innovation and development and opens the doors for expansion into other markets. Sometimes, I think we are too focused on competing locally, we need to aim to compete globally and foster those businesses that have the courage to take on an international market.
Australia accounts for more than one fifth of New Zealand's exports. China is a growing export market. Exports to China were three times higher in 2011 than they were in 2006. Would your product or service, or something you are developing, suit those markets?
Our high dollar is a hurdle for exporters but, as is frequently said, if you can make your business work in a recession, and with the dollar against you, you'll be perfectly primed to take on the world when things improve.
But who do you go to if you want guidance in exporting? NZ Trade and Enterprise is a good starting point, offering information and guides on what you should know. Your local Chamber of Commerce will also have links to larger organisations that can offer advice.
Find a business that you admire and see if you can emulate some of their strategies. Often you hear the good luck stories of success but most of the time a lot of hard graft has gone in to reaching that success.
Some businesses may be willing to share their stories, so you can learn from their mistakes.
For the year ended June 2012 export volumes of goods and services increased 2.5 per cent.
Let's hope that upwards trend continues.

2008 GTA IV pulled from Thailand store shelves
Grand Theft Auto IV - General News | @ 10:06 AM MDT | By Slim Trashman
South-east Asian video game publisher, New Era Interactive Media, has told Thai retailers to pull GTA IV from store shelves after an 18 year old teenager confessed to murdering a cab driver and "Grand Theft Auto", in attempt to discover if it was in fact as easy to rob a taxi in real life as in the game.
Thai newspapers say the teenager, whose name has been withheld, was arrested while trying to steer a cab backwards out of a Bangkok street with the driver still in the back seat.
Police claim the 18-year-old confessed to stealing the taxi and said he killed the 54-year-old driver after he fought back. The teenager could face the death penalty if he is found guilty.
