Reviews for this host's other properties
The apartment was good value for money. We stayed in Milan for 3 days with 4 boys in the age of 24-27. The apartment was large enough, the beds were quite good. The location of the apartment is a few kilometres from the centre. There's a tram stop right in front of the apartment so everytime we decided to go to the centre we took the tram. It took about 15 minutes to reach the city centre and we didn't had to pay at all. Compared to the high prices of the hotels in Milan, I think this apartment is a very reasonable offer. You shouldn't expect too much luxury but the beds, TV, fridge and the bathroom were all good and that is what a man need, isn't it?
Our main goal of the trip to Milan was Il Derby della Madonnina. Although I have been a lot of matches through whole Europe, this was a special derby. So much passion from both sets of fans, really impressive!
It was a great apartment, nice location and from the beginning he gave us really well information.
The apartment is very clean and confenient. We can find all the stuff easily.. :)
He even help us to book a taxi.
which is its not easy to communicate with English there.
Nice Apartment in a decent location, had the strict minimum for kitchen items, could be a bit better.
the apartment is well located and there are many fine bars and restaurants around. indeed it's just 30 minutes walk to the Duomo and nearby many arthistorical monuments. Our host Filiberto was a very helpful.
Perfect location cozy place, very nice, personal stock. I was fine.
Posizione perfetta luogo accogliente,molto carino,personale
Disponibile. mi sono trovato bene.
A nice, clean, but rather small apartment within walking distance of the Duomo. If the owner renews the convertible bed, the stay will be much more convertible.
very easy handling. apartment clean and in good condition. pleasant and quiet environment. only toilet paper and there was insufficient küchentüchlein to dry dishes missing.
sehr unkomplizierte handhabung. wohnung sauber und in gutem zustand. angenehme und ruhige umgebung. einzig toilettenpapier war ungenügend vorhanden und küchentüchlein um geschirr zu trocknen fehlt.
Very nice apartment, everything we needed, close to public transportation.
Friendly people
Brilliant location. Good service, very kind people at the location and fast + friendly communication. Recommended!
The apartment is great! We were there with 5 people. Everything was super nice apartment courtyard! A few minutes walk to Central Station, then only 4 stops on the metro to the Duomo. It's all very easy to reach and easy. Contact was very friendly, everything went smoothly. Highly recommended!
Die Wohnung ist super! Wir waren dort mit 5 Personen. Alles sauber schöne Wohnung super Innenhof!!! Ein paar Minuten zu Fuß zum Hauptbahnhof, von dort nur 4 Stationen mit der Metro zum Dom. Es ist alles sehr gut und schnell zu erreichen. Kontakt war sehr freundlich, alles hat reibungslos geklappt.

It's extremely sticky but it tastes very good. I use it regularly when I feel like wearing something clear and shiny on my lips. If I'm concerned about my breath I can just lick my lips. It's almost like a hidden breath mint.4

Date of Stay: September, 2011
We love this campground and highly recommend it! They have laundry facilities and a beautiful location atop a hill overlooking Calgary! Peace and quiet in the City! Fantastic location and the customer service was excellent. You will not be disappointed with your stay here!
Date of Stay: September, 2011
After camping here numerous times over the summer of 2011 for work purposes we tolerated the dirty park, unfriendly staff and noisy area due to trucks on the nearby highway, our main reason for returning was due to the convenience of shopping and work. WiFi is an issue here and we were not able to get access it over the duration of our numerous trips. We always abide by the rules of the park which are very, very strictly enforced. The prompting to write this review came with our last visit. We notified the park that we would not be able to leave at the appointed check-out time (11am)and offered to pay for an extra day due to the extra 2 hours we were delayed in leaving. We were told that it was not a problem however when we were hooking up our trailer to leave at 1pm another staff member came by and reminded us that we needed to pay due to our delayed departure. We told her we had offered and she left minutes later another staff member came by with our Visa swiped and used and a paper for us to sign thereby billing us the extra night as we were pulling out. Sorry Shakers Acres but our loyalty is no more and we will never return. Good luck in the future and I hope you treat your future loyal patrons with more respect and integrity.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
Fantastic park for camping! Quiet, peaceful and great walking access to trails and the lake. The lake is huge! Bring your boat as you can fish or just enjoy a recreational ride. There is a beach area and a cordoned off area for swimming in the day-use area a short walk from the sites. The staff are very friendly and the park is very clean and well maintained. They offer free firewood each evening from 5pm-9pm! There is a small shop on site that offers soft serve ice cream along with other small food items and a few camping essentials if you need them. We have enjoyed many an evening over the summer at this wonderful park and would highly recommend it! Power sites book up really fast and the park was full throughout the summer.

When German hiker Wanja Drees set out to tackle Mt Ruapehu he had no idea he would soon be stranded with a badly broken leg.
The 19-year-old slipped and fell down a slope above Te Heuheu Valley on Sunday, snapping his femur on a rock.
Speaking from his bed at Rotorua Hospital, Mr Drees said he had completed the Tongariro Crossing on Saturday during a weekend away from a dairy farm in Matamata.
He said he decided to make the most of Sunday morning by trekking up Mt Ruapehu.
Dressed in shorts, a shirt and a pair of "normal" shoes he set off alone up the northwestern slopes of the mountain.
About 11.30am the scenic walk took a turn for the worse. "On the way back down the track I stood on a stone and it slipped away," he said. "I slipped with the stone down the mountain."
Mr Drees said he slid along the snow and hit a rock about 50m down the slope.
"I tried to stop there but it did not really work."
When he finally managed to stop a further 50m down he realised something was wrong.
"My left leg didn't look like a leg, I could see that it was broken and it was swollen," he said. "There was blood coming out of my shorts."
Not knowing his bone had come out of the skin, and after losing his cell phone in the fall, he stayed in the area for about 30 minutes yelling for help.
Starting to think no one would find him, he took matters into his own hands.
"In the end I decided to put the shoelaces out of my shoe and I bound my legs together."
With the shoe laces tied across his thighs, and his left foot sitting above his right, he began to slowly slide on his back down the hill towards help. After 15 minutes or so he saw something "amazing".
"A man named Scott from the National Park Village and his daughter heard me yelling."
He said the man called emergency services and he was flown to Rotorua Hospital by the Taupo Greenlea Rescue Helicopter.
Mr Drees underwent surgery to his left leg on Sunday night and expects to be released from hospital tomorrow.

Biosensing in Designed Proteins
€ 78,99

Juni 2011
BeschreibungBiosensing in Designed Proteins provides a basic molecular approach to design biosensors in genetically modified proteins using electron transfer (ET) chemistry. The material is primarily aimed at probing the mechanistic insights into nanobiosensor performance using a library of metal complexes. The distance dependence of ET based biosensor which used ZnS coated CdSe (CdSe@ZnS) quantum dots (QDs) coupled with RuII complex-modified MBP-MT function as a unimolecular nanobiosensor. The function of this protein-QD assembly is provided by ligand mediated protein motions that change the QD emission properties. This system operates using ET as opposed to energy transfer, with the metal complex as an electron donor, and the QD as an acceptor. The viability of the ET approach for biosensor development will also be outlined with respect to current mechanistic models.

Have We Seen the End of the Big Media Play?
Buried in a recent press release from investment bank The Jordan, Edmiston Group, Inc. is a brief overview of mergers and acquisitions activity in the consumer magazine space. Brief, because there's not much to tell—at least from a value standpoint.
"The consumer magazines sector saw a 34% increase in number of deals, but a sharp decline in deal value, as there were no $100+ million transactions in this sector in 2012," the release states. "Throughout the year, acquisitions in this sector were primarily of small publishing companies and individual magazines."
It's hard to imagine this situation changing any time soon. The magazine and newspaper giants are trying to hold their own, with Time-Warner and News Corp. seeing losses in their publication sectors offset by profits elsewhere. News Corp. is, in fact, spinning off its publications division in order to make its TV and other media properties (to be renamed the "Fox Group") more attractive to investors. It does not exactly point to a tasty buyers market for storied brands like Time, The New York Post or Sports Illustrated.
Gone are the days of mass consolidation in newspapers and magazines; the global expansion (the Hearst-Lagardere deal of 2011 is likely the last of its kind); the liquidity enabled by high-profit-margin media enterprises. There were rumors a few weeks back of Bloomberg buying the Financial Times, but it hasn't happened. It probably won't (though the Nieman Lab's Ken Doctor predicts 2013 will be the year of "Trophy Newspapers," by which he means Warren Buffett-style rescues of storied broadsheets at bargain-basement rates).
On the other hand, there is that increasing M&A activity among small, niche publishers. JEGI cites as one example Modern Luxury's acquisition of Aspen Magazine from Ridge Publications. This is where we can expect future growth to occur.

During a recent conference exploring the impact of the Baby P case on social work, organiser Ray Jones told the audience of child protection professionals: "We do know how to do child protection and we should tell the government this." The conference had been discussing the problem of social workers receiving all the blame by politicians and the media when tragedies occurred.
Child protection issues only ever attract negative headlines, giving the impression of a sector in crisis. There's therefore a need to redress the balance of reporting. Our next online discussion will ask, how is the child protection system really faring?
What are the key issues facing professionals in this sector? How can liaison between different organisations be improved? How can public confidence in the system be improved?
Join us between 12 noon and 2pm on Monday 27 January to join in or follow the discussion with our expert panel (panellists to be confirmed). You can send us your questions and thoughts before the debate via Twitter at @GdnSocialCare, Facebook, or email at firstname.lastname@example.com
The panel includes

About Me
I am a photographer who is always interested in expanding my own and models professional portfolio consisting of any of the following: head shots, fashion, casual, sport, lingerie, or anything for personal use for amateur/professional models in the Tri-State area of New Jersey. I will travel if needed to New York, Penn, Delaware, CT, and others if needed.
I am also available to digitally enhance and edit any photo with the industries latest software.
I am a complete professional in my manner towards photography. I am NOT a "hands on" type photographer. I do not pressure models into doing anything they are not comfortable with. I feel that when I shoot the session should be fun for both the Model and myself at all times, but of course still completing the assignment.
I do not charge per hour but instead have flat rates (which are very reasonable). I will also work with models on a TFP/ TFCD basis if the situation is desired and beneficial to both parties.
Just drop me a line or two and let me know what you are looking to do and I will answer all your questions and inquiries.
I'm always open to any ideas for poses, shoots, etc... that the models might have, and I encourage models to voice their opinions. Models are also welcome to bring an escort to any shoots, if that helps them to be more comfortable.
TFCD Test Shoots
Due to a lack of professionalism by some requests for test shoots will only be responded to when I am provided with the following information:
MM Model ID #
Full Name
Exact Resident City w/ Zip
Day Callback Number
Evening Callback Number
General Schedule of Availability
This will show me that you are serious. Thank you for your cooperation.
***Paid Opportunities***
PAID assignments are strictly reserved for those whom I already have working associations with. If you think that you have what it takes, and are serious about modeling, contact me about setting up a test shoot.
About me:
I have been a photographer for over 15 years. When I started I primarily worked as a photojournalist. I have been expanded my work to include for different areas such as Portraiture, Architectural, Fashion/Glamour, Artistic, Headshots, Sports, Corporate Events, Commercial, Children's Photography, nudes and various other fields.
I work often with Playboy Golf and Taboo Bikini as well as several other large clients around the USA and world so if it takes a littel longer for me to get to you I may be on the raod so please be patient.

Years ago I rescued a box of old photographs (mostly from the 1920s and 30s) that my father was looking to throw out. Although many of the photos were of my direct relatives (father and grandparents), there were some of my father's uncles, aunts and cousins. Even though I dislike holding on to what could eventually become clutter, I decided to keep all of the photographs. Recently I connected with a second cousin through Ancestry.com, who was delighted to learn that I had pictures of her direct ancestors, and asked for copies of them. I scanned and emailed them to her, and I later noticed that she had posted them onto an historical website for Duryea, Pennsylvania to share with many others. The website has a significant collection of old Duryea photographs, many of them family snapshots, but there are also others of buildings and various events. It is a website that would interest both genealogists and local historians. I am very happy to know that the photos my father was tossing out found a good home, and that they can now be viewed on http://www.duryeapa.com/contents.htm. So, next time you are tempted to send old photographs to the landfill, keep in mind that the internet might help you reunite your photos with their subject families and maybe even an entire community.

In its last public meeting before the June 8 election, North San Joaquin Water Conservation District directors discussed the groundwater recharge, a potential new office site, a grand jury report and Measure C.
The district voted unanimously to begin a process that would enable it to open a small office on Sacramento Street to house district records. The district needs an office because the city of Lodi will stop providing support work for the district as of June 30. The district currently pays $25,000 to the city and for the collection of groundwater charges. To rent and furnish the office and hire a temporary employee from Blue Ribbon Personnel of Lodi would cost the same amount as the district currently pays the city.

Ripoff Report
Credit Protection Association L.P.13355 Noel Rd. Dallas, Texas USA
Credit Protection Association L.P. Fraudulently billing for an account that is not mine ,Comcast Cable, Dallas Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I was nitified of an inquiry to my credit report (Eqifax) in March of 2013 by Comcast Cable in Plymouth MI. I placed a fraud alert on my Eqifax file and filed a possible I.D. theft report to my local police department. I recieved a bill from Credit Protection Association L.P. in July 2013 for $146.10 due to Comcast Cable. I do not have Comcast Cable services in my area, and I live 185 miles north of the claimed billing. I called CPA at 877-322-2432 and did speak to a gentleman and explained that this bill was not mine, even that the Social Security number last four digits on the bill did not match mine, and refused to give him my correct information. He claimed that the file would be corrected. I have since recieved a billing in August, which I tried to call them again at the numer listed on the bill and the number I used the last time (above) and was unable to get out of the auto-maze at both numbers. I was finally able to to make contact with Comcast with a live chat, and explain the problem I was having with this bill. I was informed that they have no idea what this bill is, they don't even have any account numbers that match the bill or any bill for anyone with my name. I was able to printout the transcript of the convesation, and sent it along with the explanation that the billing is fraudulent to CPA with a return receipt so they did get it (signed by a G.B. Driscoll). But this is not the end, again a billing for the same amount came September 9th, which I have place yet another update to the original police report and extended the fraud alert on my credit report.

Visitors frequently ask the difference between "Jackson" and "Jackson Hole." Jackson refers to the town, which serves as the county seat for Teton County, Wyoming. The 2010 census reported Jackson's population to be 9,577. Jackson Hole, however, refers to the valley. A "hole" was a trappers term for a low-lying valley surrounded by mountains.
Jackson is a major gateway for millions of tourists visiting nearby Grand Teton National Park, Yellowstone National Park, and the National Elk Refuge. Jackson is host to a number of world-class arts organizations, including the National Museum of Wildlife Art, the Grand Teton Music Festival, and the Center for the Arts. Four large arches constructed of elk antlers mark the four entrances to the Town Square.

Sonny Bill Williams says his leg injury won't be made any worse from his upcoming boxing bout.
The All Black is downplaying the stress fracture to his shin that could delay his Super Rugby debut with the Crusaders against the Blues on February 19.
Williams is training for his third professional boxing bout on Saturday night.
He is finding it hard to convince people his circumstances would be the same, regardless of whether he was in the ring.
"I think a lot of people are jumping to conclusions. The main thing was me doing boxing wouldn't have been any less time spent on the sidelines or if I didn't do boxing. That's what everyone needs to understand," he told Radiosport's Tony Veitch.
"When I'm in the ring I can't even feel it. I take all precautions with running. People have jumped to conclusions saying I broke my leg and I'm doing boxing but that's hardly the case.
"I'm sure the New Zealand Rugby Union wouldn't allow me to do it if it was going to jeopardise my rugby."
Williams says he has been consulting with All Blacks doctor Deb Robinson throughout his boxing training.
"She's fine with everything and how everything is going. The plan was for me to get back and to be able to go straight into full training but I think it's taken a couple of extra weeks longer than was thought. It's just normal with these kind of injuries but it's really a big concern," he said.
"I talked with all of them (All Blacks staff) at the end of last game. The day after I went and got a scan and found out about the results. Straight away we had a big talk and we all came to the conclusion that it was not going to be a problem."
Williams has the possibility of another fight before the World Cup in September, if he feels it would be beneficial.

One of the perks of the travel-writer lifestyle is the chance to meet and work with interesting and adventurous people all over the world. Last year, on a trip to Antigua, I was fortunate to meet one such wandering spirit—a writer named Avital Binshtock.
This weekend, Avital and her friend Jen Haft are setting out on a cross-country road trip from New York to California, and they're keeping an interactive blog to chronicle their journey. Writing on assignment for The LA Times, Avital's and Jen's Two for the Road journey will rely on reader suggestions about where to go and what to do once they get there.
They're looking for sights, restaurants, nightclubs, hotels—anything, really—that will make their trip one to remember. I'm looking forward to reading it. I think you'll enjoy it, too. And I'm sure Avital and Jen will appreciate any suggestions you might have.

World-Class Professional Boxing Returns to Rivers Casino on the North Shore
PITTSBURGH — June 25, 2014 — Two true warriors are set to collide in the main event on Friday, July 11 in the Rivers Casino Amphitheater. Former IBF World Champion, Paul "The Pittsburgh Kid" Spadafora, will go toe-to-toe with Three-Time World Title Challenger, Hector Velazquez in "Rivers Rumble 4." Presented by eight-time world champion Roy Jones Jr. in association with TNT Promotions, the event will feature a night of professional boxing by the river with a full card of action-packed bouts.
Pittsburgh's own Spadafora is coming off a disputed majority decision loss for the WBA Interim World Title vs. Champion Johan Perez. In this match, Spadafora is on a quest for one final title run.
"Pittsburgh—this is your one opportunity to witness one of the best prize fighters ever from the Steel City, and first World Champion since the original Pittsburgh Kid Billy Conn, in 1941," said future Hall of Famer Roy Jones Jr. "Believe me, you won't find a more picturesque venue in this country than Rivers Casino!"
Also included on the fight card for Rivers Rumble 4 is Youngstown, Ohio's favorite son Jake "The Bull" Giuriceo, Wheeling, WV's exciting prospect Ronell Green, Puerto Rican crowd pleaser Antonio "Carita" Nieves and more.
"This event is a favorite among guests, and we look forward to bringing boxing back to Pittsburgh," said Craig Clark, General Manager of Rivers Casino. "The exceptional fighters on the card and Rivers' outdoor amphitheater make this an event that is not to be missed."
Rivers Casino will hold a weigh-in party with all the boxers on Thursday, July 10 at 7 p.m. in the Wheelhouse Bar and Grill (must be to 21 to attend).
Tickets are now available for the Rivers Rumble 4 and can be purchased at www.showclix.com/event/riversrumbleiv.com or in the Rivers Casino Gift Shop.

Gates open at 6:30 p.m., and the first bell rings at approximately 7 p.m. All ages are welcome to attend the event; guests must be 21 years or older to enter Rivers Casino and its parking garage. All bouts are subject to change.
Opened in 2009, Rivers Casino has been named "Best Overall Gaming Resort" in Pennsylvania by Casino Player magazine, "Best Overall Casino" in Pennsylvania by Strictly Slots magazine and "Best Casino" by the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. The casino features more than 2,900 slots, 83 table games, a 30-table poker room, nine distinctive restaurants and bars, a riverside amphitheater, a multipurpose event space, live music performances, free parking, and multiple promotions and giveaways daily.

Pioneer has been churning out some cracking Blu-ray players recently - see the BDP-51FD and BDP-LX71 for more details - so we should expect good things from the latest three: the BDP-LX52, BDP-320 and BDP-120.
All three are Profile 2.0 compliant, offer 1080p playback (including 24Hz video) and support Deep colour - 48bit on the BDP-LX52 and BDP-320 and 36bit on the BDP-120. All three players will decode Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio for direct audio playback, and also output uncompressed Linear PCM to a dedicated receiver.
The BDP-LX52 and BDP-320 also one-up the BDP-120 by offering Pioneer's Kuro Link system, which coupled with a Pioneer TV will automatically calibrate the players' output to suit the display. The two higher-end models also offer Pioneer's Precision Quartz Lock System which, paired with a similarly outfitted receiver, purports to reduce audio jitter. The BDP-120 has once ace up its sleeve, however: a start-up time (from standby) of only 0.8 seconds.
The top two players can have their firmware updated either via CD or direct from the 'net, while the bottom model can do so only from CD or a USB device. It goes almost without saying that all three players look rather stylish. The BDP-320 should be available this month, with the other two models following in July. No pricing as yet.

Georgia Tech wideout Stephen Hill could be an option for the Giants, whose WR corps took a hit during free agency.
With the initial free-agency frenzy winding down, organizations are turning their attention to the 2012 NFL Draft. What are the biggest remaining holes for each NFC East team? Let's examine ...
New York Giants
Needs: WR, RT, DT, MLB, TE, CB
Reuter: AFC South draft needs
Houston is suddenly the class of the AFC South. How can division rivals catch up? Chad Reuter scouts draft needs. More ...
It's easy to forget the Giants finished 9-7 last season after the way they sliced through the NFC and Patriots on their way to a Super Bowl victory. In fact, they scored fewer points than their opponents in the regular season (394 to 400) and rushed for only 89.2 yards a game. The Giants didn't add a lot to the offense via free agency, however. They signed Bennett away from Dallas to bolster their tight end group until Jake Ballard and Travis Beckum can return from ACL injuries suffered in the Super Bowl. But No. 3 receiver Mario Manningham took his talents to San Francisco, leaving a big hole needing to be filled via the draft. Unless 2011 fourth-round pick James Brewer takes over at right tackle for Kareem McKenzie, or the team brings the veteran back, that position needs to be addressed.
General manager Jerry Reese and coach Tom Coughlin built a champion through their defensive front seven and undoubtedly will continue to add strength in the interior line with free agents Rocky Bernard and Jimmy Kennedy possibly not returning. It would be a great story if cancer survivor Mark Herzlich could start at middle linebacker, as he did before a broken ankle ended his rookie season prematurely, but he'll probably see some competition. Aaron Ross' signing with Jacksonville makes finding more cornerbacks a priority in the middle rounds of the draft -- even with Terrell Thomas re-upping with a four-year, $28 million contract and 2011 first-round pick Prince Amukamara ready to make a larger contribution.

The company has announced that it will be releasing software that will permit users to download songs from Sony's Connect music service. Sony has also promised to give the PSP the ability to link to PCs and Macs, and that this ability should be delivered within one year. The move is just the beginning of Sony's work to turn PSP into a versatile, portable device for games, music, videos and much more.

Either way, if you are a WR and want $10m+ a year, you need to dominate on the outside. Cruz does not do that. He's good on the outside, but not special. In the slot he's special. Hell, $8m/year is very high for the slot, considering the other 2 premier slot guys got $6m/yr contracts.

The World's Biggest Fishing Lure
–Chad Love
Ever have one of those "we're gonna need a bigger boat" moments? Well then, here's the lure to go with it…
From this story in the Destin (FL) Log:
It's official: The world's largest fishing lure is hanging up at the Village of Baytowne Wharf marina. Mark and Mary Ellen Davis, owners of the S.S. Spitfire Mercantile bait and tackle shop at the Baytowne marina, and a team of family and friends designed and built the massive lure over a 10-month period. Dubbed the Flatliner, it measures in at 10 feet, 10 inches tall and a whopping 355.2 pounds. Sandestin hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the lure Wednesday morning.
"(People) have flocked in for pictures," said Mary Ellen Davis. "It's been incredible. I really thought it was going to be kids, and it's been grown men hanging on it, literally hugging it, taking pictures. "It's just very exciting," she added. "It's something we can look up to, something to show our kids." Amanda Mochan, an adjudicator for Guinness World Records, came in from New York to certify the lure as the world's largest, which is a new category for Guinness.…

Out-of-Work Angler Jailed For License Violation in MI
–Chad Love
Here's an interesting question: should you be thrown in jail for being too poor to pay a misdemeanor fishing violation? It happened to a Michigan man. Now the ACLU is suing on his behalf on the grounds that failure to pay a misdemeanor fine is, in essence, a return to the debtor's prison era.
From this story on credit.com:
Kyle Dewitt spent three days in jail because he was too poor to pay a fishing fine. Last spring, Dewitt was ticketed and fined $215 for fishing smallmouth bass out of season (Dewitt disputes the charge). But Dewitt, 19 years old with a fiancée and a nine-month-old son, lost his job at a grocery store in 2010 and has been out of work ever since. He couldn't afford the $215 fine. Instead he offered to pay $100 up front, and repay the rest in a month. But Judge Raymond Voet of Ionia, Mich., refused. The judge sentenced Dewitt to three days in jail.
Economists Talk Opinions on S&P During Fishing Trip
–Chad Love
Are you watching your retirement fund go up in smoke? Is your children's college fund now only large enough to fund a mail-order correspondence course? With the sinking market and the downgrade of the US credit rating, are you wondering what the nation's top economic minds are doing to help staunch the hemorrhaging? They're working overtime, right? They're holed up somewhere brainstorming some sort of plan, right?
Well, you got the "holed up somewhere" part right. As for the brainstorming, it's probably about what bait to use. Turns out, they've all gone fishing. No, I mean literally, they've all gone fishing…
From this story on kuhf.org :
Turmoil in the financial markets has coincided with an annual fishing trip for economists and top executives deep in the woods of Maine near the Canadian border. While the economists were together, Standard and Poor's took the unprecedented step of downgrading the U.S. government's credit rating. Every year at this retreat by Grand Lake Stream some of the top minds in finance gather to go fishing in canoes with guides, catch up with each other and put their heads together about the state of the nation's economy. Some work for firms where they're not supposed to make public statements or forecasts.…

Fat Fish Raised on Kit-Kat Bars
by Chad Love
Anglers have been chasing, dreaming about, obsessing over and scheming for the largemouth bass world record ever since that fateful day in 1932, when George Perry pulled his famous 22lb, 4oz. behemoth out of Georgia's Lake Montgomery, weighed it, photographed it and promptly ate it. There have been any number of theories about where the new record bass will be caught, how it will be caught, what it will be caught on and if it's possible to purposely grow a world-record bass.
But thus far, a largemouth (either wild-caught or grown in captivity) exceeding that magical 22lb, 4oz. mark has eluded anglers and scientists alike. But maybe everyone's been going about it all wrong. Figuratively speaking, we live in a world swimming with junk food, so why shouldn't our fish do the same? It's worked for this fish…
From this story on the Huffington Post:
A fish raised on Kit-Kats is being forced to give them a break after getting too big for his tank. The fatso fish is named Gary, and he's a 15.7-inch, 8.8-pound gourami, an exotic Asian freshwater fish that is considered a delicacy in Indonesia. Gary was in the care of a private owner until he was donated to the SeaLife Aquarium in London after becoming too large, a common fate for many domesticated fish, according to center spokeswoman Rebecca Carter. However, despite being supersized, Gary was not eating the normal aquarium fare he was being served. Officials were perplexed until they checked with the previous owners and discovered he had been raised strictly on a diet of Kit-Kat candybars.
Study: Hunting, Fishing in Rockies Proven to be Recession Proof
by Chad Love
In the current political climate it's fashionable (on both sides of the aisle) to cut programs and legislation that "doesn't pay its way." Not surprisingly, conservation and environmental programs and legislation are currently under attack because we "can't afford it any more." But what if, as many of us have been arguing for years, not only can good conservation and environmental programs pay their way, they also pump money into the economy even in the depths of a recession?
That's the gist of a recent economic study from the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks department that revealed hunting and fishing activity along the front range of the Rocky Mountains is a remarkably recession-proof activity and an important regional economic engine. And that's a very good reason, argues one sportsmans's group, to encourage further environmental legislation to protect the area.
From this story in the Great Falls Tribune:
The Coalition to Protect the Rocky Mountain Front said that based on economic indicators from recent Fish, Wildlife & Parks studies of hunting's impact, the Front needs further legislative protection. Five Montana sportsmen said in a teleconference call Tuesday that the hunting industry is a rare economic bright spot in the current recession, and called the Front a poster child of this sustainable economic engine. "The remarkable thing we are seeing here is stability," said Randy Newberg, an accountant and host of the hunting television series "On Your Own Adventures." "The numbers along the Front show public land hunting has not been as susceptible to the broader economic challenges facing other industries during the recent recession," he said.
Feds Trying to Determine if Asian Carp Have Made it Into Lake Michigan
–Chad Love
Federal officials are set to embark on a four-day Asian Carp fishing fest to determine if the high-flying aquatic rats have made their way into Lake Michigan
From this story in the Christian Science Monitor:
Federal officials are starting a four-day intensive fishing expedition Monday to determine whether the Asian carp has infiltrated water locks that are designed to keep the invasive species from entering Lake Michigan, a scenario that neighboring states say would wreak havoc on the lake's fragile ecosystem. The search effort is in response to discoveries of Asian carp DNA in June and July, all in Lake Calumet, a body of water located about six miles below Lake Michigan but directly connected to it through the Calumet-Sag Channel. That waterway intersects the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, a man-made channel that connects Lake Michigan with the Mississippi River.

My PS took out my stitches/bandages today at my 21-post-op day visit. She told me all was well and I was healing fine. I then went to work. I was wearing the same non-wire bra I have worn the entire healing process. When I got home tonight, I noticed what looked like dried blood near the incision area. Is this normal? Should I call her and let her know or will this go away? Thanks!
Stitches Taken out After BA, Dried Blood at Incision Area?
Doctor Answers 4
Stitches Taken out After BA, Dried Blood at Incision Area?
Without a photo or an idea of how much blood you are talking about, I wouldn't want to risk given false reassurance. Call your surgeon. After some give an take on the phone, she can advise you far better than can a stranger. All the best.
Dried blood at the site of stitches is not always a problem
Sometimes after stitches are removed a small scab or crust gets knocked off, and this may cause a small amount of bleeding. If there is no redness adjacent to the wound edge, it is probably OK. If you have any concern at all , you should contact your surgeon. She would want to know this I'm sure.
Concerns about Incision Line after Breast Augmentation?
Your description does not sound alarming but online consultants will not be able to give you meaningful advice and/or reassurance. Best to check with your plastic surgeon if concerned.
Best wishes.

It's said that what goes up also must go down. In this case, the opposite was true. Beginning at a hole in the ground in the country of Oman, Chris Sharma and Stefan Glowacz descended beneath the earth's surface to begin a climb like no other.
The location was Majlis al Jinn, literally the cave of spirits, and one of the largest cave chambers in the world. The only entrance to the cavern is by a 160m abseil – although that's not strictly true for everyone. In 2007 Felix Baumgartner famously BASE jumped in. For Glowacz and Sharma, the way up was the point of interest and that was via the world's largest unclimbed roof.
"When I went in the cave for the first time, I realised it would be so difficult but it would be the perfect project to do with Chris," Stefan told us.
Once at the bottom, the challenge began – get back outside. Thirteen pitches of 7c+ and 8b+ climbing lay before them – with overhanging inclines of 45 degrees and more. Other than that, the athletes had little idea of what to expect on the never-before climbed roof of Majlis al Jinn.
Unfortunately for Glowacz, an injury prevented him from completing the challenge and the tight schedule the climbers were granted to accomplish the feat didn't leave him time to recover.
However, just being there was a memorable enough experience for the world renowned climber. "It's simply an incredible experience to climb Majlis al Jinn," says Glowacz. "The route's type and character are unique. To climb from the bowels of the earth back into the light is one of the most impressive things I've done."
Sharma's sentiments are the same. "It was really a ground breaking achievement for myself. To climb out of this crazy cave was an ambitious goal in itself. We're just lucky how it came together – it was really special."

Here's the story!
My wife works evenings at a TV news desk. I work mornings on the radio. So every night at 8, our four dogs and I call it a night and trundle up to bed...and I text mama to say hi, and let her know that all five of us (four dogs and me) are fed, happy, and hitting the hay.
But, see, I'd been trading texts with Bruce and Janine earlier in the day, and that's the window that was open when I fired off the above.

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. Take that, oddsmakers!
The New York Jets left Miami overwhelming winners after going there as one-point underdogs, motivated by the lack of respect and determined not to be the winless Dolphins' first victims.
"Everybody picked us to lose," linebacker Victor Hobson said after the Jets' 40-13 win Sunday. "I guess that stops all those rumors."
If the Jets (3-9) sounded somewhat bitter after the win - an upset, if you believed oddsmakers - it was for good reason.
"I feel bad for those who took the points," wide receiver Laveranues Coles said. "That's just the way it works. It's one of those things where you can't control what people think."
Coach Eric Mangini insisted Monday that he didn't focus on the underdog talk in his pregame meetings with the team. He also said he didn't spur the Jets on by reminding them that they didn't want to be the first to lose to the Dolphins.
"I would never boil the season down like that," Mangini said. "To me, it's the next game and each opponent is important, not getting caught up with whatever the issues are that really don't affect the outcome of the game. That, to me, just adds distractions."
That's a fair point, but some of the players, who enjoyed a well-deserved day off Monday, were clearly focused on not being embarrassed.
"Obviously, Miami's season hasn't gone the way they would have liked, but in some ways we can relate," quarterback Kellen Clemens said after the game. "We approached it like it was the most important game of the week."
And they certainly played that way. New York had its biggest scoring outburst since a 41-14 victory over Miami in 2004. It was also perhaps the Jets' most complete game of the season.
"I was pleased with the way that we played on Sunday across the board," Mangini said, a statement he hasn't been able to utter much this season.
Wearing their Titans throwback uniforms, the Jets outgained the Dolphins 372 yards to 187, took advantage of turnovers, regularly converted on third down and stopped Miami in similar situations. New York also got a good game from Clemens and finally got Thomas Jones into the end zone.
After 225 carries and an endless number of questions about his touchdown drought, Jones scored for the first time as a member of the Jets.
"It wasn't one of those things where I thought, 'God, we've got to get Thomas a touch so these guys stop asking about it,"' Mangini said with a smile. "It was more of, 'I'm happy when anybody wearing the Jets or Titans uniform - New York Titans, not Tennessee - gets into the end zone."'
Clemens quieted some of his critics, who have been quick to point out that the second-year quarterback has struggled to complete more than 50 percent of his passes and been erratic since replacing Chad Pennington as the starter. He was efficient in going 15-of-24 for 236 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
"There were a lot of things I was happy with about his play," said Mangini, who pointed out that Clemens spread the ball to eight receivers and put pressure on Miami's defense by getting everyone involved.
Coles led the Jets with five catches, despite playing with a sprained ankle that caused him to miss last week's game at Dallas. He was clearly not completely healthy and missed most of the second half.
"I thought he did a great job," Mangini said. "He had some big third-down receptions. He fought through a difficult situation and he's been so diligent with trying to get ready to play these games and not being able to have the practice time he usually has."
Whether Coles gets that this week is unclear. Mangini said it's "an ongoing process," as is the recovery of fellow receiver Jerricho Cotchery, who's sidelined with what is reportedly a broken right index finger.
The Jets will have another day to relax and relish their victory before regrouping Wednesday and preparing for the Cleveland Browns. Sure, the win was against a team in serious danger of becoming the league's first 0-16 squad, but it still felt plenty good - underdogs or not.
"Getting a win against anyone is great," linebacker Bryan Thomas said. "Our opponent's record doesn't dictate if it's the biggest win or the smallest win. A win, period, is just great."

Home › Forums › General Forums › Philosophy & Technique › Sleep Apnea – Backpacking – Developments Long
Jun 10, 2010 at 6:51 am #1259979
A few years ago, there was a Sleep Apnea thread here. I thought I would add some information.
Historical Lead-up
I was diagnosed with moderate Apnea last year, following my complaints of lack of endurance. The Continuous Positive Air Pressure machine or CPAP was prescribed and I am doing extremely well on it. The endurance is certainly up.
In 2008, I hiked part of the Superior Hiking Trail, and after 10 days was completely out of energy. So, I had to quit and come home early. This was one of the sources of my complaint of lack of endurance.
My, then, physician dismissed the complaint claiming that I was the healthiest senior citizen in her practice. My subsequent (older, wiser) physician is the one who prescribed the sleep test for apnea.
For sleep apnea, I actually consult a Pulmonary specialist.
I discussed my plans to hike a couple of hundred miles of the Appalachian Trail in 2009 and he was enthusiastic. We discussed side sleeping and the ball in the back pocket trick. And of course, to be sure to quit if it became too much of a chore. With the low elevation of the trail segment (Harper's Ferry to South of Shenandoah)he didn't anticipate any great altitude problem.
By the time I was nearing the southern end of the Shenandoah Park, I was getting pretty tired. The second to last day, I had 13 miles to go to the next shelter and 11 miles to the next water. About half way through that stretch I hit the highway and hitched. The last uphill stretch to the shelter and spring were done slowly and with rest stops.
By the time I caught the airplane home, I had backpacked about 200 miles, and felt good.
Recent Developments
I began thinking about sending the CPAP machine ahead to selected resupply points along the trail and then laying over a day or two or more to sleep with the CPAP and recharge my energy.
The other day, one of the CPAP companies had a "Mask Fitting … etc" evening get together at the local sleep lab. Of course I went.
I talked some time with one of the CPAP reps about the idea. He agreed that it works. I pressed for more details and it took a while, but was painless.
The rep wasn't aware of any published work on this subject. He knows of cases where people who hike the AT have done this.
Evidently, there are no guidelines for how long it takes on the CPAP to "recover" the poor sleep and poor breathing for the period off the machine. You have to experiment and find it out for yourself.
The rep has a reclusive friend on CPAP who hikes the AT. He is going to try to get him to call me to talk about his experiences. He wasn't optimistic about the reclusive friend following up with any kind of open discussion, however.
Evidently, I missed the opportunity to evaluate my "recovery" period after my hike last year. Within a day or two, I was riding my bike several miles every day, but mostly I remember that it didn't take long to feel normal once I was back on CPAP. I don't have any recollection of whether or not I slept more to make up for any deficit.
The main health guideline the rep had to offer was to sleep as much as possible under those conditions. Simply, with a poorer sleeping environment (no CPAP), do what you can to compensate.
If anyone else here backpacks with sleep apnea, I would be interested in hearing your experiences.
Later this year, I'm going back to the AT for a 100 mile segment from the Smoky Mt. Park to Erwin, TN. No current plans for a CPAP layover in Hot Springs NC.Jun 10, 2010 at 7:01 am #1618598

What's the ball in the back pocket trick?Jun 10, 2010 at 8:08 am #1618610
The ball in a pocket trick may be known by other names.
Originally, the idea was to take a T-shirt with a pocket on the chest. Put a tennis ball in the pocket. Put the T-shirt on backwards so the ball sticks out from your back. This is supposed to aid in keeping you from sleeping on your back, the position where obstructive sleep apnea is maximized. So, it encourages side sleeping.
You can also jury rig something with a stuff sack and some webbing or cord and an elastic pocket (or non-elastic) sewn in/on the stuff sack that will keep the tennis ball pressing into your back if you lie on your back.
This is multiple use. A stuff sack, which may carry something like clothing or just an organizer. Then a "sleep on side appliance", and a tennis ball to throw around for play. Especially if you have a good dog along. :-)Jun 12, 2010 at 3:54 pm #1619405

@wvcubdadLocale: Not too far off the Tuscarora Trail
Thanks for posting this, I've always wondered how many BPL'ers have a similar problem. I was diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea about 4 years ago and prescribed a CPAP which has really made a dramatic difference in my quality of sleep (now if I would only stop staying up too late and getting up too early…)
I don't do a lot of long backpacking trips, most of my current outdoor adventures are with my Cub Scout Pack – 2 night car camping trips, week long Resident camps. That said the first few nights at Resident Camp usually involve waking every hour or so, adjusting my position and trying to fall back asleep. After 2 am I can usually manage a longer period of rest. On the car camping trips I am restless the first night and able to sleep the second.
I have not tried the tennis ball trick, but I did get a BA AirCore mattress that makes life very bearable for me after trying to use a Thermarest UL pad.
If I fall asleep on the couch at home I do notice that if I am on my back I struggle to breath but on my side it's okay. Same sleeping in camp. I have not actually timed my recovery from a trip, but notice a nice restful sleep that first night home. I can not sleep in a bed more than 6 hours or my lower back starts to kill me.
After reading the article a few months ago about making ourselves UL, I am now working on shedding about 70 pounds and hope to go in for a new sleep test by the end of the year.
I did try to take my CPAP and a small inverter with me on a Pack overnighter but to my mind it was too darn loud so I just deal with it on these trips. After my son crosses to the Troop next year I'll have to see how a longer trip goes, but by that time I should be a lot lighter and in better physical condition!

The research on sleep apnea supports a 10% or more body weight loss as a positive factor in reducing the effects of obstructive sleep apnea (evidently, central sleep apnea, failure of the normal nerve impulses to star at a breath cycle isn't so strongly affected by body mass).
In about 2003 or 2004 I lost about 79 lbs by diet and exercise ( lots of bicycle camping and continuing to live an automobile free lifestyle). At that time, my sleep apnea was undiagnosed, if it was even fully developed.
Hopefully, you will see substantial improvement provided you can stick with diet/exercise strongly enough to eliminate that much weight. With the body weight savings, you might be able to carry a portable HDTV into the wilderness :-). Or, one of those Lithium battery powered CPAP machine$.
Wishing you success on the weight loss, and hopefully a positive trip report on the effects.Jun 14, 2010 at 4:30 am #1619807

About 20 years ago I was living in Tokyo and started waking up in the middle of the night unable to breathe and then feeling terrible during the day – headaches, lethargic etc. So I took myself off to the hospital – they did tests, said it sounded like apnea but it was unusual because I wasn't obese. This happened a few times then stopped altogether.
A year or so ago I was talking about it with my wife, who was my girlfriend when I was in Tokyo. She said yeah that was me – I used to hold your nose to stop you snoring.Jun 16, 2010 at 6:15 pm #1620710
1)CPAP Assisted Layover in Hot Springs
I looked into this a little more. The Hot Springs Resort and Spa were contacted by telephone. I explained I would like a campsite with power for my CPAP and they said they could provide that – as a campsite for an RV which has power. If that was what I wanted, it would be the same rate as an RV, $40/night. Advance reservations really recommended. (Of course, any motel, hotel or hostel room would also have an electrical outlet).
They would be happy to accept shipment of the CPAP and hold it for me, and it could probably be shipped out (home or next rest stop) pretty easily.
I imagine that getting this kind of help from any lodging facility along a hiking route should be fairly easy.
2)Better Ball In Pocket Trick?
Back Pillow for sleep apnea.
There are a number of nearly conventinal pillows sold for sleep apnea. The above link isn't for that type. It is a pillow-like cylinder that is attached to your back where the cylinder is something like 5 or 6 inches in diameter and 10 or more inches long.
Think of a stuff sack stuffed with soft clothing or balloons or an inflated cylinder.
This large (lightwight) object held onto your back provides a large comfortable solid objectr to prevent back sleeping and apnea maximization. I improvised something like this from two stuff sacks, the outer one converted into a "backpack" with soft cord for the shoulder straps and a web and buckle waist strap. I had an inflatable plastic air pillow in the inner sack to provide the lightweight large object attached to my back.
I used it at home a little, but by then my CPAP arrived, and I left this to age in the "unfinished project" box. When I was thinking of moving, I took it apart into the basic components and managed to misplace them.
I am mentioning this because it might be time to move beyond the old "tennis ball in a pocket" trick. Especially for backpacking and trying to keep the weights and volume of any sleep aids down to a minimum.Jul 7, 2010 at 11:53 am #1626985
I'm not sure how this sight is with spamtards so I'll try to keep this vague. I recently started using a device that pulls my tounge forward as I sleep, It's small light and fits in you're pocket. It was a pain to get used to, but it works and I'm back on the trail!!Jul 14, 2010 at 5:54 pm #1629012
Some people have reported good success with various of these oral appliances.
I bought one, one of the ones that you place in boiling water to heat it up and then you put it in you mouth with your jaw forward and let it cool and take this shape.
The theory is that the movement of the jaw to a forward position will open up the tissues in the back of the neck.
Some of this critical positioning stuff I learned after I had placed my order. I have "overbite" and there is very little room to move the jaw forwards with my bite.
So, I never used it. It was called a SnorBan sport mouthpiece and was pretty affordable.
There are threads, possibly on BPL, that discuss some of these devices, including the ones made by dentists from patented designs and materials that they purchase in order to fit you. These are more expensive. I don't have any decent data on the effectiveness, but it is one of those "best effort" approaches and mileage varies a lot between individual patients and possibly fitting dentists. I used to have a bunch of websites for these devices bookmarked, but I appear to have misplaced or erased those bookmarks.
If you have had good results with one device, I envy you.Jul 14, 2010 at 9:16 pm #1629079
this one actually sucks on to your tongue and pulls it out of your mouth. I was leery at first but it has worked for me. I just got back from a four night trip, and while it didn't stop my snoring it did stop the apneaJul 29, 2010 at 5:47 pm #1633343
Various people have marketed devices that are supposed to keep an individual with sleep apnea from sleeping on his/her back.
"Positional Sleep Apnea" is a term to describe sleep apnea that depends upon body position – namely apnea in supine sleeping but little or no apnea when side sleeping.
Here is one article on the observation of this set of traits.
Positional Sleep Apnea May Be Common
News Author: Laurie Barclay, MD
Oct. 17, 2005 — Positional sleep apnea is common and not usually diagnosed on split-night testing, according to the results of a retrospective chart review published in the October issue of Chest.
"Body position during sleep influences the frequency of apneas and hypopneas in 50 to 60% of individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)," write M. Jeffery Mador, MD, from the State University of New York at Buffalo and the Veterans Affairs Western New York Healthcare System (VAWNY), and colleagues. "Various estimates indicate that positional therapy alone could be used to treat approximately 30 to 50% of all patients with OSA."
The primary objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of positional OSA, defined as a total apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) greater than 5, with a greater than 50% reduction in the AHI between the supine and nonsupine postures, and an AHI that normalizes (AHI less than 5) in the nonsupine posture. The secondary objective was to determine if positional sleep apnea could be accurately diagnosed during a split-night study.
The investigators reviewed records of 326 patients, including 57 patients who underwent a split-night study and 242 patients who underwent polysomnography.
Positional sleep apnea was diagnosed in 49 (49.5%) of 99 patients with mild sleep apnea (AHI, 5 – 15/hour), 14 (19.4%) of 72 patients with moderate sleep apnea (AHI, 15 – 30/hour), and 5 (6.5%) of 77 patients with severe sleep apnea (AHI greater than 30/hour). Sleep time did not exceed 15 minutes in both postures in 104 (38.7%) of 269 patients at the VAWNY and in 80 (33.1%) of 242 overnight studies at the Associated Sleep Center nor in 47 (82.5%) of 57 split-night studies. The percentage of studies with insufficient sleep time in both postures was greater for split-night studies ( P < .0001).
"Positional sleep apnea is common particularly in patients with milder disease who have smaller neck circumferences," the authors write. "Positional therapy has the potential to be an effective therapy in a significant proportion of patients with sleep apnea. Rigorous outcome studies evaluating the efficacy of this treatment modality are urgently needed in patients with mild-to-moderate sleep apnea."

I suffered from moderate/severe sleep apnea for several years. I tried the CPAP machine, but it and I didn't get along at all. So, in 1998, I had surgery to correct an elongated soft-palate and have not had any problems since. This was the best thing that I have ever done. I don't suggest that surgery is the best option for everyone, but it did wonders for me.

WHITAKER, Judge.
Plaintiff, a corporation doing business under the laws of the Crown Colony of Hongkong, seeks just compensation for certain cargo which was unloaded from the vessel Dona Nati at Manila, Philippine Islands, in December 1941.
Although plaintiff's petition enumerates 18 separate lots of cargo for the taking of which just compensation is claimed, the taking of only 2 of these lots is presently before the court for determination. One of the two claims involves 50 drums of petroleum grease, and the other involves 120 reels of galvanized steel wire. Plaintiff has selected these two claims as test cases, and if our decision as to them is against plaintiff, it will be determinative of the other 16 claims.
The vessel Dona Nati arrived in Manila from the United States on December 4, 1941, carrying certain cargo belonging to plaintiff. The vessel immediately began to discharge that part of her cargo which was consigned to Manila and the surrounding area. On or about December 10, three days after the outbreak of
On about December 8, 1941, the commanding officer of the Quartermaster Depot at Manila received orders to take charge of all supplies having military value in the Manila Port Terminal Area. In order to carry out these orders, the Army took control of and posted guards over the Port Terminal Area. Nothing could leave the piers without Army permission. After the cargo had been removed from vessels in the harbor, a rapid screening of the unloaded cargoes ensued to determine what materials might be of military use. Property thought to have a possible military value was segregated, and either removed from the Area in military vehicles or placed in dumps within the Area for possible removal later. The property which was thought to have no military use was deposited in a large open storage site adjacent to the piers. In order to keep the piers as clear as possible, the Army urged all local Philippine consignees to remove all property consigned to them which did not have a military use. The proof does not show whether or not plaintiff received notice, or whether or not it sought to remove the cargo consigned to it.
Although the Quartermaster Depot had been instructed to give receipts for property taken, this was not done in all cases, because of the haste and the confusion existing in that area due to the imminent capture of the city by the enemy, and no records are now available which show what property was actually taken.
On December 24, Manila was declared an "open city" and the remaining military units proceeded to evacuate, taking as many supplies with them as deficient transportation facilities permitted. The Army succeeded in removing some military supplies, but estimates vary widely as to what quantity was removed and what quantity was still present when the enemy arrived on about January 2, 1942.
On or about January 1, the piers and warehouses in the Area were thrown open and the civilian population was permitted to remove anything they wished. Efforts were made to destroy what was left to prevent it from falling into enemy hands. The evidence does not reveal whether the petroleum grease and the galvanized steel wire involved in this case were removed by the Army, taken by the civilian population, destroyed, or fell into enemy hands. Nor does it show whether or not it was put with other property thought to have a military value. Indeed, there is no proof as to what standards were used by the Army in classifying property as of military value or as of no military value. We are not told whether the Army set aside only property of evident military value or whether it included all property of any possible military value, or used some intermediate standard. It may be that the enemy was so near the Army did not want to bother with anything except items of undoubted value, or it may have thought it could not remove everything of any value. Nor do we know whether the Army intended to take everything that it set aside. For aught we know, everything of any possible military use was set aside, with the intention of later determining what to take and what not to take. If this was what was done, certainly in view of the imminent capture of the city, the property of unquestioned military value would have been removed first, and that of doubtful value last.
In Hongkong & Shanghai Banking Corp. v. The United States, Ct.Cl., 137 F.Supp. 425, 427, which was very similar to the present case in many respects, we said:
As in the earlier Hongkong case, plaintiff has failed to remove this case from the realm of conjecture, and for such failure its case must fail. Cf. Anderson, Clayton & Co. v. United States, 122 F.Supp. 835, 129 Ct.Cl. 347; Caltex (Philippines), Inc., v. United States, 122 F.Supp. 830, 129 Ct.Cl. 605.
Plaintiff is not entitled to recover just compensation for its petroleum grease and galvanized steel wire since it has failed to establish a taking, and its petition will be dismissed as to such cargo, and also as to the other 16 lots of cargo enumerated in the petition.
It is so ordered.
JONES, Chief Judge, and LARAMORE, MADDEN and LITTLETON, Judges, concur.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
So.... the letter says my subscription will continue if I don't let them know by 29th November (good job I'm not on a two week holiday). But in the mean time "here is your free copy of Triathlon Plus - your new subscription will start with the December issue".
Oh. It's the December issue you sent me.
And to add insult to injury, there is an ad inside the magazine which says if you subscribe, you get a free cycle jacket worth £50. Yet if you are forced into it, you'll be lucky to get a magazine worth four quid!!
Ranty ranty moan moan. I've been a subscriber the whole time Triathlete's World has existed and I am a bit peeved.
Me too Especially as I think my hubby has bought me a new subscription for Christmas!
It was always going to fail. They copied the RW format which is weak and only works because it has been going for years and applied it to a cutting edge sharp sport.
Trathlete Europe was ok last time I read it. Is it still going ?
I unsubscribed from TE a few months ago Alex. It went off the boil too IMO.
Does that mean we go back to RW website?
Oddly enough I looked for a subscription offer the other day and couldn't find one - obvious now. Ended up going for 5 for £5 for Triathlon220. Have set reminder to cancel subscription just before it costs me real money. But then again if I enjoy it I might not.
Trouble with all these things is there is only enough you can say about them. Its not like buying PC World where there is ever changing technology always gives them something to write about.
Until we grow an extra leg or whatever there may be nothing to keep writing about in RW / TW other than the same old.
Welsh Alex wrote (see)
a cutting edge sharp sport.
Sorry, that just made me piss myself laughing
The infrequent times I look for a tri mag (usually to read on a flight), ive always found TW half as thick as 220 so plumped for the latter.
Either that or a Razzle
Has the title tanked? That's a pity - because the recent editions of TW have been good and I thought they were a big improvement.
+1 for the repetition thing.... i happily read last year's, which (surprise surprise) have largely the same content as this year's.
TW on Twitter saidtriworlduk Triathlete's World We are now focusing on our online magazine - there won't be a print edition but you can still read all our great content.
No it's just Chrone on here popsider.

It will pay to keep an eye on Hearst over the next few months; a board reshuffle done with an unsentimentality that Michael Corleone would have been proud of, the dropping of a formerly big brand, the axing of a number of brand extensions – all imply some even more brutal changes to come.
-- And just in case anyone is bored, why it's Hearst now and not Natmags Linky

The way the I would like to see it is for example is Natalie Mitchel and my employee number is 123456 my password should be lie56Mi (last three letters of my name, last 2 number of my employee number and the first 2 letters of my last name {first letter capitalized}).
Can you think of an easy-ish way for me to do this?

Lenny Kravitz added to The Hunger Games cast
The Hunger Games is an adaptation of Suzanne Collins' best-selling trilogy. The movie deals with the story of 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives with her mother and younger sister in the poorest district of Panem, in the apocalyptic America. Lenny Kravitz will play Cinna in the film. He appears as a mild-mannered first time stylist, who can create Katniss' impressive designs.
Lenny Kravitz will be directed by Gary Ross in the film The Hunger Games. The director was impressed by Lenny's work in 'Precious'. Talking about his casting, Gary Ross says, "It was quiet and strong and understated and open hearted; all qualities which define this character. I'm really looking forward to this ride."
However, Jennifer Lawrence is playing the lead role, while Liam Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson and Stanley Tucci are in the supporting cast in The Hunger Games. Lionsgate Films has aimed to release the film on March 23, 2012.
