The Spaceship of Terror
Short Story by: Sasa Sijak
Status: Finished
Genre: Science Fiction
The space can really be a scary place. When you think about all of that vast space with no limits and borders, it certainly makes you frightened as hell. Dave and Rob were in a scary position right above the orbit of Mars. This is their story.
Dave and Rob are the only members of crew of a small spaceship that is destined to explore and gather data from the biggest Mars satellite Phobos. The name of this satellite derives from Latin language and it means fear. But Dave and Rob never expected they would experience fear on this far away place. Their mission was simple and clear. They just need to gather some rocks from the satellite and that is all. The next step would be to create a mining community on Phobos, but that is still a far away dream.
The small spaceship approached Mars and its satellites in a quick pace. Dave and Rob were operating the spaceship instruments and everything looked normal and without any problems. Then Dave suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the control panel.
"What is this? It must be the malfunction of the control panel. I told them we shouldn't take this old junk into space again. Where will we get the spare parts if something is broken?" Dave said.
" Please don't panic. It is just a small bug in the machinery. I will go and check it out. Just wait for me. " Rob answered.
" Hope you will come back in one piece. Just remember not to open the vacuum trash launcher by accident." Dave joked.
" I am not that stupid. I fixed spaceships when you were still in diapers. It is not nice to joke with a senior member of crew. " Rob replied angrily.
" Yes sir, I know you are an expert in this field. I am truly happy to have you hear with me. " Dave said sarcastically.
" You can leave you sarcasm and disbelief back on Earth. I will come back quickly." Rob mumbled and went straight to the machine room.
Rob arrived to the machine room in few moments. Everything seemed normal. There were no malfunctions and all of the gauges showed the right numbers. But what was the reason for the strange sounds. Rob picked up his tools and equipment. He was ready to make a standard check. It was not the first time for him to do this. He is an experienced spaceship mechanic and he accompanied many spaceship expeditions. Although he is close to his retirement, he still works with the same enthusiasm and energy as the first day he arrived to the Space Mine Company.
" Mars was never my favorite place to visit. But this job must be done. I am going to disassemble the front panel and see the real cause of this strange sound. " Rob mumbled to himself.
Rob was ready to disassemble the front panel. He had all of the necessary tools and he has performed this task many times before. It should be easy for him to perform this task. When Rob finished unscrewing the last screw, the sound became horrible and frightening. The whole machinery started to shake and tremble in a furious way. Rob was not sure what was causing this problem. It is certainly not normal and he had never experienced something like this before. The sound increased in intensity and vibrations were becoming unbearable. At last, the front panel fell down and unleashed the surges of pure energy that crushed every bone in Rob's body. He fell down on the floor and screamed intensively.
"Dave, help me! The machine has gone crazy. Please come down. "
But all of the screaming was completely useless. Dave couldn't hear him. The machinery poured another surge of unknown energy and turned Rob into a pile of dust. Just like he never existed before. Some strange chemical reaction dissolved all of his body and there was nothing that could help him now.
Dave was still in control room. He watched the control panes and he noticed something unusual.
" The old bustard is certainly doing some serious check to this machinery. Let him handle it. I will just rest and wait for him. But dammed, what is this horrible sound? He is not making it any better. I think I should go down and check what is wrong. "
Dave was reluctant to go, but it was something that should be done. If he stayed there and did nothing, it wouldn't help solving this situation. He was down in a moment. He faced the strange situation. The front panel was on the floor and there was no sound of Rob.
" Where are you old fool? You were here to check the machinery and not to do the nap. Come here immediately."
This was very strange. Dave thought it was impossible for somebody to disappear in thin air. He decided to make a search. The front panel was down and he wanted to check the back panel. When he arrived close to the back panel, the situation was normal. All of the screws where in the right position and there wasn't anything wrong with the machinery. He touched the panel and felt the strong vibrations. The sound became louder and it was all frightening and astonishing. Before Dave was able to make any move, the whole back panel exploded and it released the strange surge of energy. Everything was over in a moment. The blast was much stronger now and the machinery released all of the dark matter that was somehow trapped in it. The surge of energy filled the whole spaceship and caused it to disappear from this plane of existence.
Years after this accident, there were many search expeditions that tried to find the disappeared spaceship. There were no results and there was nothing they could find. The whole spaceship disappeared near the Mars orbit. Nobody was sure why there are no pieces of a spaceship or any of the space junk near the place where the spaceship disappeared. Rob and Dave where lost on their last expedition and they were destroyed by an unknown power that always present in the universe. They were consumed by the dark matter and turned into pure energy.

Hey man, good stuff, short and to the point. You got a Bradbury thing going there.
I usually avoid reading space-related things since I do not take a lot of interest in them but this was very good! I really liked it and I find it original. Your writing really captured my full attention, which doesn't happen often on this site for me :) Great work and I will make sure to read more of your works soon! :)
Interesting story. I'll have to look up more of your work.
Reminded me a bit of Arthur C. Clarke and his Odyssey books. A very enjoyable short.

New Zealand is running low on chickenpox vaccines as more parents seek to have their children immunised and as winter approaches.
Pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) has announced it is out of stock of its Varilrix vaccine and is getting an emergency shipment from Belgium. It hopes it will be back in stock within a fortnight.
GSK New Zealand general manager Anna Stove said there had been a notable increase in demand for the vaccine, with a 37 per cent increase in sales on this time last year.
"Demand for the vaccine has increased dramatically, which we believe has mainly been driven by media news around the importance of parents considering immunisation against chickenpox."
There is an alternative vaccine, Varivax, but it is not recommended for babies under 12 months.
Paediatrician Marguerite Dalton, medical adviser for the Immunisation Advisory Centre, said there was always a peak in the number of cases of chickenpox at the start of winter.
"It's a contagious disease and kids are spending more time indoors, mixing with each other and coughing and spluttering."
Rather than being concerned about a vaccine shortage, Dr Dalton said it was a good sign.
"I find it quite exciting because it shows that we've finally got the message through to people that there is a vaccine and it's really effective and it's a jolly good idea to have it.
"If you have the chickenpox vaccine you might get a sore arm, but get chickenpox and you'll have a horrible high temperature, you're itchy and scratchy, and you can't eat because your mouth's so sore. And then on top of that you might get secondary problems like infected sores, ear infections and chest infections. Which would prefer?"
Hutt Valley mother of three Rochelle Gribble, who also runs parenting advice website kiwifamilies.co.nz, said the debate on whether or not to immunise against chickenpox still raged among parents she knew.
Some parents even elected to take their children to "pox parties" where children are deliberately exposed to other children with the illness to avoid them getting it later in life, when it can be more harmful.
"Parents are generally in two camps: there's those who say 'I got chickenpox and I survived so I don't care if my children get it, they'll live it'. Then there's the parents who think 'why on earth wouldn't you give the vaccination to your children when it works?'."
She had chosen to immunise her three girls against the disease.
"I think that if my children can avoid getting it at all, I don't see why I wouldn't vaccinate them.
"Science has a lot to offer in health and I think the chickenpox vaccination looks like one of those to me. No pox parties for my children."
Chickenpox vaccinations are not funded by the Government's drug-buying agency Pharmac and they cost between $50 and $100.
The issue of chickenpox and rotavirus vaccinations are due to go to Pharmac's main clinical advisory committee later this month and could be funded by the end of the year.
* People with chickenpox have small blisters on their skin which can be very itchy. Symptoms also include tiredness, fever, aches and pains
* Very occasionally it can lead to serious complications such as pneumonia, problems with the kidneys, heart, joints or nervous system. Chickenpox is also serious for pregnant women
* Chickenpox usually clears up within 3 to 7 days for adults and 5 to 10 days for children
* The virus is spread through the air by infected people when they sneeze or cough, and by touching the chickenpox blisters
* If you've already had chickenpox you're probably immune, but if you had a very mild case it is possible to get chickenpox again, but this is very rare

|Making a painting look exciting and pleasing to the eye is the ultimate goal in a successful work of art.
~Robin Rowe
Artist's Biography
Robin was born in southwest Virginia and grew up in a farm house surrounded by beautiful scenery. Her love of travel has provided her with a constant source of inspiration, traveling to places far and wide including destinations such as France, Italy, Spain, Greece, the Caribbean, Hawaii and extensively throughout the U.S. Her work is always developing and each painting is a learning experience. It is her goal to create a painting that is as exciting to her as it is to the collector.
The Process: Giclees
What is a Giclee? Pronounced Ghee-Klay, the french word "giclee" roughly translated means "to sprinkle ink". Technically, it is a digital method of fine art printing. Robin's original image is digitally captured with a high resolution scanner, matched to the original colors and personally approved by the artist, then sent to a high resolution ink-jet printer to be printed on an archival canvas. The results..."An archival museum quality print."
All pieces are gallery-wrapped giclees in a variety of sizes and wired so they arrive to you ready to hang.

Discussion in 'Draft Zone' started by xwalker, Dec 14, 2012.
I averaged 3 mocks drafts together.
They are from McShay and the 2 guys from CBS (nflds).
The cbs guys always seem to copy each other to some degree and that always seem to be WAY off come draft day.
Not sure if that's true, but it seems that way.
I bet you have the rankings on who is the closest compared to draft day...though they only do that for the 1st round.
I predict we will draft a d-lineman,we almost did it last draft and the need has increased.
Thanks for the effort X man.
i predict we draft DL or OLB is rd 1
I don't think I'd complain with any player that falls inbetween the average of 15-25. Pretty good list of 7 good players at positions we could use.
This is what I think as well. Sheldon richardson, Dion Jordan, Ansah...

"Gourmet Fine Catering is by far one of the best catering options in Colorado. Their food is amazing both in presentation and taste. We went with stations at our reception which provided our guests with lots of options. People are still telling us how fantastic the food was. Their staff is efficient and professional."
Fleur De LizVail, CO, USA
"Fleur De Liz is an amazing florist located in Evergreen. We met with many florists in the Vail area and were unimpressed with what they had to offer, they seemed overpriced (several had a $4,000 minimum for a Vail wedding!!) Liz was fantastic, she worked with our modest budget and we ended up with more beautiful flowers than I could have imagined!"

"We decided to rent an SUV for the bridal party last minute (instead of using the shuttle we had scheduled for guests) Green Limosine was very accomodating, after the driver dropped the bridal party off he said he still had 45 minutes left on the contract and was happy to pick guests up at the hotel to supplement the shuttle!"
Lyssabeth's OfficiantsW Beaver Creek Blvd
Avon, CO, United States
"We had a difficult time finding an officiant, it was one of the last vendors we booked. When I first found Lyssabeth's online I had my doubts but once we spoke to Maureen I knew she would match us with a wonderful person who would listen to us and give us the ceremony we dreamed of! We met Megan and knew immediately that she was 'the one'. She worked with us to create a unique and memorable cermony that reflected the two of us and the coming together of our families. We've had many comments since our wedding that it was the most sincere and original ceremonies guests had ever seen."
Beaton PhotographyDillon, CO, United States
"This was the best money we spent! Kay was fantastic. She took the most beautiful photos of our wedding from all the little details to the big moments. She has a talent for capturing personalities - we will treasure these photos forever. Kay is also AMAZING to work with, she was the one vendor that would contact me before I contacted her. She was always one step ahead of me making sure everything was perfect. She was so excited to be a part of our day and it shows in every photo she took."

"Donovan Pavilion is a beautiful place to hold a wedding. Our ceremony was on the patio and after waking up to a cloudy rainy day the clouds parted and the sun came out just in time. It was gorgeous! The staff is very nice and they are willing to help you on a limited basis. They will not do layouts for you and if you have a caterer who is not familiar with the venue be prepared to do them yourself. They are also very stingy with the time and adding additional hours is pricey. It's an expensive venue, but it does include chairs & tables and you can bring in your own liquor which is a great way to save money if you are planning an open bar."
Vail Cascade Resort & Spa1200 Westhaven Dr
Vail, CO 81657
"The Cascade is a very nice hotel. We had a small block of rooms and we didn't hold any functions at the hotel, but they still treated us like VIP's. They upgraded the brides parents to a suite and upgraded our room to a presidental suite the night of our wedding. Staff was very friendly and ready to help."

Its definitely safe to go back into the water at Fish Hoek beach after a new net to keep white sharks out of the swimming area was finally installed. Cape Town – It's definitely safe to go back into the water at Fish Hoek beach after a new net to keep white sharks out of the swimming area was finally installed on Friday. The trial net, which encloses the space between the City of Cape Town law enforcement offices and Jagger's walk and extends 300 metres out to sea, has been in the pipeline for months. It comes in response to concerns about recreational use of the beach with sharks in the bay, and the subsequent potential negative effects on local businesses.
Felicity Purchase, South Peninsula sub-council chairwoman, said the aim of the trial was to determine the efficacy of the net as a safety measure. But they would also conduct research to understand how the net would work in a variety of weather and sea conditions, and determine whether it posed an unacceptable risk to marine life. "If successful, the use of an exclusion net at Fish Hoek beach could become a permanent safety measure," she said. But Purchase pointed out that whatever the outcome, the net would not replace the existing Shark Spotting Programme. She warned too that there could be changes to operating hours and conditions at the beach, without notice, during the course of the trial, which continues until January. "It is not possible to determine ahead of time which days the net will operate on, and for how long it will operate each day. "This decision will be made daily, based on weather and sea conditions." Purchase said the netted area would be mainly for the use of swimmers. "No motorised or non-motorised watercraft will be allowed within the netted area. Inflatables will be permitted." Body boards would be allowed within the netted area, but users may be asked to leave during peak periods. Purchase said it was unlikely the net would interfere with trek fishers.

2 Suspects in bank robbery gang members
STOCKTON, Calif. - Police in Central California say two suspected bank robbers who took three women hostage and were killed in a resulting shootout with officers were gang members.
Stockton police spokesman Joe Silva said Thursday morning the men, ages 30 and 27, were Stockton residents. He identified the third and surviving suspect as 19-year-old Jaime Ramos and said Ramos was booked into San Joaquin County Jail on suspicion of homicide, kidnapping, robbery and attempted murder.
Silva says police are still investigating the crime scene and have so far found at least three handguns and an assault rifle.
Police say officers responded to the robbery on Wednesday afternoon and spotted three men taking three women hostage at gunpoint.
Two of the hostages were wounded during the ensuing chase. The third hostage - who police believe was used as a human shield - was found dead in the SUV after the shootout.

A Taste of Our Own Medicine?
I'm prone to rumination and a number of years ago, a shrink friend (but not a shrink rapper) told me I should take Zoloft. No one before or since has ever suggested I should take a psychotropic medication and I dismissed my friend's suggestion with the thought that it was motivated by something along the line of misery loves company. You see, my friend had an anxiety disorder for which she was taking Zoloft, and she found it helpful; while I don't imagine she told everyone she met to take Zoloft, I did think it predisposed her to see whatever my issue of the moment was as psychopathology, not just any old psychopathology, but pathology just like hers that would be helped by Zoloft, just like hers.
So we worry that our practice of medicine will be influenced if we're given pens by the pharmaceutical companies. If we're talking about how that free lunch influences us, might we talk about how the doctor's personal response to medication effects his practice? It's common for psychiatric residents to discuss whether it's necessary to have a personal psychotherapy in order to become a psychotherapist. No one talks about how their own responses to illness and treatment effect their own practices with regard to diagnosis and treatment.
Docs are human, I imagine that if a doctor finds a medication helpful, or has a horrible reaction to it, his practice will be influenced. If I've had a rare but extreme adverse reaction, how can I possibly order such a treatment without fearing my patient might have the same rare but extreme adverse reaction, even if the odds of the same reaction might be a zillion to one? Don't we all get sensitized by our personal experiences?

Enough people laughed at the Microsoft Surface: "One day your computer will be a big ass table." But the company is pushing forward its vision of a touch-screen world with the Microsoft Sphere.
Unveiled this week in Redmond, the Sphere is, well, essentially a sphere-shaped version of the Surface, using the same multi-touch sensors and software. The Sphere is slightly more sophisticated: It has to use a special algorithm to project round images; therefore, it has its own special applications, such as a globe (gasp) and a really fancy version of Pong, as demonstrated in the video.
Microsoft Research has no official plans to make the Sphere commercially available. Ars Technica's first impression is that it's unlikely the
Sphere would succeed in today's market, since it has such niche applications. The Surface is currently being used as a commercial device; it's being used in the AT&T store, for instance, to enhance the shopping experience. But where exactly would the Sphere fit in? A geography class? Probably not, as students would have to crowd around a ball, unless they each had their own — which would be financially ludicrous, since the Surface is estimated to cost around $5,000 to $10,000.
Microsoft's vision of a world with touch-screen surfaces everywhere is in line with the technology we see in sci-fi films. Commercially plausible right now? No — but perhaps later, when it's less expensive, and in different shapes or forms.
MS Surface goes spherical, but probably won't go global [Ars Technica]Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

The tailored look of the Spring 2012 Amsale collection was a mix of stiff fabrics (taffeta, silk mikado and silk faille), pleating and an origami-style bow detail.
Whether discussing fabric manipulation, mixing of materials or elegant embellishments, brides looking for a classic and sophisticated look will love the new Amsale collection. You just have to wait till it hits salons in the fall.
1 – I like simple and the simplicity of this diagonal bow on the "Harper" dress was quite chic. Also, did you notice how one side of the strapless neckline is a natural curve while the other is higher? A number of designers created an off-balanced neckline which adds another subtle detail.
2 – One-shoulder necklines have taken the bridal fashion world by storm. Designers have left the fabric clean or embellished them with everything from crystals to pearls to beading. The "Renee" dropped-waist gown here has an encrusted flower on the tip of the shoulder.
3 – Belts have become an easy way for a bride to accessorize her wedding dress. There are ribbon belts, belts adorned with fabric flowers and crystal adorned belts. I like the knot design on the "Gwen" dropped-waist ball gown because it's just the right amount of crystals and it's in an interesting shape. Kind of looks like a mask, right?
4 – A few years ago Amsale launched the Little White Dress collection, which featured a variety of mini-wedding dresses that can be worn as a reception dress or to a casual wedding. The "Charlie" dress has a ruched strapless bodice with a mini-bubble skirt.
5 – The pleated organza bodice and peplum on the "Callie" wedding dress adds a little more dimension to a strapless tulle A-line gown. (Trend Alert: Peplums are big this year.)

One Frame At A Time: Purdue & Minnesota (Non-GRIII Edition)
Previously: Purdue & Minnesota (GRIII Edition)
Of course Spike Albrecht is familiar with the "Big Balls" dance that originated in the (terrible) sequel to a classic baseball movie before being popularized as a basketball celebration by Sam Cassell.
[Hit THE JUMP for the rest of the GIFs, featuring Nik Stauskas making Andrew Dakich do Andrew Dakich things, Jordan Morgan's old man strength, Jon Horford's zen calm, and much more.]
One Frame At A Time: Purdue & Minnesota (GRIII Edition)
Between game-winners, Showtime-esque fast breaks, the alley-oop bonanza, and the many other plays of note from Purdue and Minnesota, OFAAT is split into two parts. Part one belongs to Glenn Robinson III.

Glenn Robinson's alley-oop finish over two Minnesota players elicited reactions normally reserved for Cirque du Soleil, the Top Thrill Dragster, or the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The above screencaps come from one replay of GRIII's slam. So does this:
The man on the left reacts to this spectacular feat with a golf clap. The woman on the right is... dead? Even her reserved husband(?) appears concerned:
"Honey? Honey? ... Well, it was a hell of a way to go."
Keep this clearly deceased woman in your thoughts as you watch GRIII inflict pain and suffering upon all who dare cross his path, after the jump.
[JUMP, but not as high as GRIII or your knees will literally explode into a confetti of ligaments and bone shards.]
Reinforce The Rafters
3/1/2014 – Michigan 66, Minnesota 56 – 21-7, 13-3, guaranteed share of Big Ten title
He moved it with his mind [Eric Upchurch]
Let us recalibrate ourselves.
I'm 34. Growing up, it was expected that Michigan won things. In football. And therefore in everything else, because football is everything except at, like, Kansas. (Kansas hired Charlie Weis on purpose. Basketball focus is kind of a disease.) That bled into other things, and then success was expected. This Is Michigan.
Success is still expected, in rhetoric and increasingly anachronistic Michigan-directed hate from fanbases around the Big Ten. Rivalry things I get. I don't get Iowa being livid about everything after taking five of six because of Bo, basically. Even after the key thing was eminently humbled, the new guy came in saying This Is Michigan, and yours truly and everyone else ate it up.
But the reality is that Michigan is in an increasingly demographically unfavored situation, waiting until water scarcity and global warming drives the people back into its bosom. Reputation and momentum worked in tandem to forestall the impact of these trends, and then: kaboom. First basketball, then football, and then sort of but pretty much hockey.
The dominion of Michigan is increasingly hard to see sustained. There is a lot of money and fanbase and these things should keep them above middling; Michigan fans expect any program fielded to be mentioned in the same breath with the elites. We are ill prepared to deal with anything but, what with infinite bowl streak that still defines our self-perception. 13 years into the post-Cooper era at OSU and it still feels like a cruel surprise.
Here's the thing.
Birthright fandom kind of sucks. You expect thing X and you must have thing X and anything slightly short of thing X is terrible. Being around OSU fans talking epic crap about every slightly deficient player on their team is both revelatory and probably a glimpse into what I thought in the immediate vicinity of 1997. See Kentucky basketball.
Hoping not to die is more fun. Ask an MSU fan about this, in re: Rose Bowl.
These things are inevitable historical trends that catch entire fanbases up and cannot be resisted. Success begets the expectation of more of that. What I am saying is that Michigan is now a hope-not-to-die set of programs with a birthright fanbase. We should recalibrate ourselves, for good fun.
When Michigan hired John Beilein they hadn't been to an NCAA tournament since 1998, when Robert Traylor and Louis Bullock were team leaders. The year before, Maurice Taylor joined those gentlemen on a team that didn't make it at all; Taylor left for the NBA draft, where the Knicks drafted him because they are the Knicks. He tooled around the NBA for a decade, shooting long twos and flinching from any loose ball that came within three feet of him.
John Beilein hates no one and makes self-depreciating jokes about subs being crazy and brings in Novaks and Burkes and Stauskases and Morgans. It is in fact cute when he loses his mind at the latest refereeing outrage he's been exposed to, even as it seems to get results these days.
He picks out random post-grad point guards from Indiana and leads them to double-digit A:TO ratios, and even when Michigan does happen to have a pile of NBA players on their roster it's by accident and development. Nobody's rushing to give these gentlemen shoe contracts until Beilein (and Alexander and Meyer and Jordan) reconfigure them.
This is one thing. This is a good thing. I supported Beilein's hire because I thought his floor was what he would do at West Virginia and Richmond and wherever he'd ever been, bringing in guys who would outperform recruiting expectations and enter many NCAA tournaments as the team you don't want as a Sweet 16 seed.
Then there is the other thing. Beilein won a Big Ten title with Novak as his power forward, and went to the championship game the next year on the back of a Penn State decommit and an NBA legacy no one really seemed to want. And this year, down both of those first-round draft picks he and his assistants identified and developed, down the one super-blue-chip recruit Beilein has ever acquired, Michigan won the Big Ten. They are just about a lock to win it outright for the first time in almost 30 years.
I know you are inclined because of that drought, and I think I probably don't have to tell many people this thing, but I kind of have to tell myself. This is not normal. This is not something that can be expected. This is not Michigan, not in that sense.
It seems to be Michigan. And the Michigan it posits is a different, bizarre, wondrous thing. Not because of anything inherent. There are places better able to recruit with athletic departments better at creating an environment. This has nothing to do with institutional momentum, because there was none. This is whole cloth, from which they've made three banners in three years. And counting.
This is not This Is Michigan. This is better.
Randomness is random. Very frustrating start from behind the line as Michigan goes 2/12 on mostly high quality looks (there were a couple Stauskas jacks that were tough). Irvin in particular went 0/3 on three must-take shots. But things evened out with a hot streak that saw Michigan finish the game at 39%, just about on their season average.
I was about to start rage-shaking about another impossibly slow offensive start when Michigan kicked it into gear. So there's that.
GRIII doin' things. Figures that as soon as I say Robinson should basically never take anyone off the bounce he starts doing that rather effectively. He drove to the lane and dumped a pass off to Morgan for an and-one. I was all like "urk?" Then he drove Buggs to the baseline and set up Stauskas for the triple in Stauskas/LeVert Corner, and I was like "guuuurk?"
That is real progress. He's had three assists in consecutive games, a feat he only achieved once before this year, against Penn State, and he's generated at least a few of his own shots. It's still a work in progress, as the frustrating turnovers when he brings the ball up indicate, but at least the last four games (averaging 6/9 from two) provide a indication of that progress stuff.
And then there were the usual GRIII-is-destroying-Tokyo things. He re-enacted his game winner against Purdue and brought the house down on 1) a Stauskas alley oop and 2) a bang bang bang transition oop that had me waving myself with an elaborate hat and moaning "mercy!"
I do think he needs to have more impact on the boards on both ends. The OREB/putback after Minnesota had closed in the second half was awesome; it reinforced his ability in that department and the unfortunate rarity of things like that. He's got close to the same athleticism Braden Dawson does (Dawson is thicker) but is nowhere near Dawson's spectacular 13.2 OREB rate.
The zoom in. Ace pointed out that if you zoom in on one of Eric's GRIII-destroys-Tokyo images you get magic:
This contains the Horford/McGary dichotomy, the bench mob going off, Andrew Dakich like crane-kicking a dude, and John Beilein reacting exactly how I did, with a sort of stiff "okay hurray GET BACK ON DEFENSE."
Long twos! Argh! I don't mind a long two with 12 or 10 or 8 seconds on the shot clock. Once the clock gets much under that people start overplaying the shot you have to take, and your chances of finding something super is not great. Even 15 is tolerable. 25 sends me into conniption fits, especially against one of the worst defenses in the Big Ten, and it certainly seemed like Michigan was taking a ton of 'em.
That Stauskas aggressiveness thing does lead to a bunch of questionable shots, and I'm okay with it when the payoff is 3 points at like a 30 or 35 percent rate, two at a 35 or 40 percent rate drives me nuuuuuuts.
The elbow jumpers are fine, the threes are fine, it's just those shots a step inside the line that make me hear Bo Ryan cackling in the background.
Turned that off. Morgan and Horford got beat up a bit early as Elliot Eliason went 4/5 and got another layup that Horford had to foul on (he missed both FTs). And then Eliason ceased existing. Major credit to Morgan for preventing entry passes and ripping down several critical MANBOUNDS late.
Morgan didn't get many opportunities on the offensive end, partially because he had a rough game catching passes and the occasional offensive rebound, but the brief second-half section where Horford came in and got crushed by Mo Walker hammered home how well Morgan was cutting off the things Minnesota was trying to do inside. I am slightly worried that there will be a chemistry breakdown next year without him even if McGary comes back, and while that's probably an irrational fear borne of recent Merritt/Lee and Glendening departures, it is real.
Title chance update! Secured. Win @ Illinois or against Indiana and it's outright.
Seed update. The three seed is now unanimous amongst serious prognosticators. Algorithmic source Crashing The Dance was the last holdout, as it still has Creighton and Iowa State ahead of M, items which do not seem true to humans with good track records. Michigan's chance at a 2 is pretty slim, though. They are not likely to pass Syracuse or Duke, Villanova would have to drop some unexpected games, and Wisconsin is hard to pass with their wins over Florida and UVA. If only Michigan could have gotten six more points against Charlotte and Arizona they'd probably be a one, but alas and alack.
Photos from Michigan vs. Minnesota (Hoops)
Michigan 66, Minnesota 56
GRIII: Pretty, pretty good at the whole "jumping" thing. [Eric Upchurch/MGoBlog]
I'm at a loss for words.
Michigan just secured their second Big Ten title in three years with two games remaining on the schedule. The year the Wolverines didn't win, they made the national championship game. At least four plays tonight were more spectacular than anything I witnessed Michigan do in the entire Ellerbe/Amaker era—good lord, Glenn Robinson—and this wasn't a good offensive effort by this team's standards.
The novelty of Michigan basketball being a legitimate national powerhouse hasn't worn off in the slightest. I still can't help but blurt out "oh my god" on press row when Nik Stauskas throws a lob to GRIII and he throws it down on two people without regard for gravity or human life. Ditto when the backup point guard with one scholarship offer sparks another highlight-reel alley-oop with an Unseldian outlet pass, then follows it up with a leaping high-wire act to tap keep a critical possession alive. Or when Caris LeVert, one-time Ohio commit, continues to develop into an all-B1G player before our very eyes.
I'm still trying to comprehend last year. Now this? Without Trey Burke or Tim Hardaway Jr. or Mitch McGary? My brain is a 404 error. The page you are looking for does not exist. Please return to the front page and continue staring at the banners above you until you're 100% sure this is reality.
Adding to my confusion is the manner by which Michigan won tonight. Their shots weren't falling in the early going; unlike the last handful of games, however, the Wolverines weathered an early opposition run with quality defense. Minnesota led 15-9 at the ten-minute mark of the first half. At halftime, Michigan led 31-20, even providing a signature defensive moment during their 22-5 run, a spectacular Robinson block of an Andre Hollins fast break layup.
The offense eventually found its rhythm thanks to the exploits of Michigan's three stars. Stauskas knocked down 5/8 three-pointers en route to a game-high 21 points. Though LeVert (13 points) struggled outside the arc (1/5), he hit 4/8 two-pointers, dished out five assists, and used his three defensive rebounds to ignite transition opportunities. Robinson added 12 points, half of which came on alley-oops, seemingly touched the rafters to pull down a critical late offensive rebound before finishing the job himself, and knocked home one of his signature 18-footers.
Jordan Morgan scored five points on three shots, but that only scratches the surface on his contributions tonight. He drew a huge charge call in the second half, played his usual excellent defense, and pulled in ten rebounds. Morgan's final board, on a Stauskas miss with 1:45 remaining, led to Spike Albrecht sinking a dagger to put Michigan up ten, capping a high-impact outing for Michigan's backup point guard. Derrick Walton only played 18 minutes; in that time, he scored eight points on five shots.
Michigan will raise their third banner is as many years when the 2014-15 season begins. Several of tonight's key figures won't be in uniform—Morgan, definitely, and who knows what will happen with the pro prospect sophomores? It'll be a familiar feel to start a Michigan season, and that alone is astounding to this child of the late '90s and early aughts.
Better yet, this season isn't over, and once again the Wolverines are rounding into form as the calendar flips to March. I think this Beilein fellow just might work out.
Big Ten Champs Muppets
While you're up there Glenn, go ahead and hang a banner.
These are banner muppets:
And you can't have one without the other…
For the second time in history a team with back-to-back losing records in its conference is probably going to the dance. The last time was Virginia in the brutal ACC of the 1990s. The next will most likely be Minnesota in this year's Big Ten.
This is the conference Michigan just clinched.

Terror-struck Mumbai celebrates India's win
India won the first Test against England in Chennai on Monday.
Mumbai: Both English and Indian cricket teams were scheduled to check into the Taj Hotel in Mumbai just two days after the terrorists struck and the Test match to be played in the city was moved out.
From September 26 to 29 Mumbai was ripped apart witnessing 60 hours of terror. The entire country was in shock as Mumbai bled.
However, the win in the first Test against England at MA Chidambaram in Chennai on Monday, which was scripted to a large extent by Sachin Tendulkar's 41st Test century, finally brought some cheers to Mumbai residents.
So finally after nearly 20 days Mumbai finally smiled on Monday when one of its favourite sons gave the great city something to cheer about.
"What happened in Mumbai was extremely, extremely unfortunate and these hundreds and all these things will give certain amount of happiness to people but has happened in Mumbai is very hard to recover for that. I would take this opportunity to thank everybody who actually stood up to this and made sure that the terrorists were captured and also killed. I would like to salute all those jawans, hotel staff and every body - the firemen, Navy, the NSG. It's been fantastic. Finally coming to cricket which is lesser thing compared to what has happened. I feel what we ever we can contribute in a small manner, we have been able to do that. We are with those people who have lost their dear ones," Tendulkar said after the match dedicating his century and India's win to Mumbai.
The match started with both teams solemnly remembering the victims of 26/11 after which it was cricket played in the true spirit of the game.
It was an exciting five days of Test cricket with the odds gradually tilting against India till Virender Sehwag and then Tendulkar and Yuvraj Singh won it for a grateful nation.
It was a remarkable gesture on the part of England to play despite the security concerns.
Crackers at Mumbai's Shivaji Park celebrating India's victory brought with it a whiff of relief and a sense of excitement and accomplishment.
The wounds would remain for ever but cricket definitely helped ease the pain.

Xylocaine Viscous
Acute systemic toxicity from local anesthetics is generally related to high plasma levels encountered during therapeutic use of local anesthetics and originates mainly in the central nervous and the cardiovascular systems (see ADVERSE REACTIONS and WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS). It should be kept in mind that clinically relevant pharmacodynamic drug interactions (i.e., toxic effects) may occur with lidocaine and other local anesthetics or structurally related drugs, and Class I and Class III antiarrhythmic drugs due to additive effects (see DRUG INTERACTIONS).
Central nervous system toxicity is a graded response with symptoms and signs of escalating severity. The first symptoms are circumoral paresthesia, numbness of the tongue, lightheadedness, hyperacusis and tinnitus. Visual disturbance and muscular tremors are more serious and precede the onset of generalized convulsions. Unconsciousness and grand mal convulsions may follow, which may last from a few seconds to several minutes. Hypoxia and hypercarbia occur rapidly following convulsions due to the increased muscular activity, together with the interference with normal respiration. In severe cases apnea may occur. Acidosis, hyperkalaemia, hypocalcaemia and hypoxia increase and extend the toxic effects of local anesthetics.
Recovery is due to redistribution and metabolism of the local anesthetic drug. Recovery may be rapid unless large amounts of the drug have been administered.
Cardiovascular effects may be seen in cases with high systemic concentrations. Severe hypotension, bradycardia, arrhythmia and cardiovascular collapse may be the result in such cases.
Cardiovascular toxic effects are generally preceded by signs of toxicity in the central nervous system, unless the patient is receiving a general anesthetic or is heavily sedated with drugs such as a benzodiazepine or barbiturate.
The first consideration is prevention, best accomplished by careful and constant monitoring of cardiovascular and respiratory vital signs and the patient's state of consciousness after each local anesthetic administration. At the first sign of change, oxygen should be administered.
The first step in the management of systemic toxic reactions consists of immediate attention to the maintenance of a patent airway and assisted or controlled ventilation with oxygen and a delivery system capable of permitting immediate positive airway pressure by mask. This may prevent convulsions if they have not already occurred.
If convulsions occur, the objective of the treatment is to maintain ventilation and oxygenation and support circulation. Oxygen must be given and ventilation assisted if necessary (mask and bag or tracheal intubation). Should convulsions not stop spontaneously after 15-20 seconds, an anticonvulsant should be given iv to facilitate adequate ventilation and oxygenation. Thiopental sodium 1-3 mg/kg iv is the first choice. Alternatively diazepam 0.1mg/kg bw iv may be used, although its action will be slow. Prolonged convulsions may jeopardise the patient's ventilation and oxygenation. If so, injection of a muscle relaxant (e.g. succinylcholine 1mg/kg bw) will facilitate ventilation, and oxygenation can be controlled. Early endotracheal intubation is required when succinylcholine is used to control motor seizure activity.
If cardiovascular depression is evident (hypotension, bradycardia), ephedrine 5 - 10 mg i.v. should be given and repeated, if necessary, after 2 - 3 minutes.
Should circulatory arrest occur, immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation should be instituted. Optimal oxygenation and ventilation and circulatory support as well as treatment of acidosis are of vital importance, since hypoxia and acidosis will increase the systemic toxicity of local anesthetics. Epinephrine (0.1 - 0.2 mg as intravenous or intracardial injections) should be given as soon as possible and repeated, if necessary.
Children should be given doses of epinephrine commensurate with their age and weight.
XYLOCAINE Viscous 2% (lidocaine hydrochloride) is contraindicated in:
- patients with a known history of hypersensitivity to local anesthetics of the amide type or to other components of the solution (see DOSAGE FORMS, COMPOSITION AND PACKAGING).
- patients with a known hypersensitivity to methylparaben and/or propylparaben (preservatives used in XYLOCAINE Viscous (lidocaine hydrochloride solution) 2%), or to their metabolite para amino benzoic acid (PABA).
Formulations of lidocaine containing parabens should also be avoided in patients with a history of allergic reactions to ester local anesthetics, which are metabolized to PABA.This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

Survivor: Cagayan -- Brawn vs Brains vs Beauty
Exclusive: Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen talks 'Survivor: Cagayan -- Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty' (Part 2)
By Reality TV World staff, 06/03/2014
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen, a 41-year-old attorney from Tehachapi, CA, finished
: Cagayan -- Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty in third place behind runner-up Yung "Woo" Hwang and winner Tony Vlachos.
Kass was
voted out
of her Solarrion tribe at the Final 3 Tribal Council, when Woo had the decision to take her or Tony to the end and he opted to bring Tony to the Final 2. Woo ended up losing the $1 million prize to Tony.
In an exclusive interview with Reality TV World, Kass talked about her
experience. Below is the concluding portion.
Click here
to read the first half.
Reality TV World: We saw Spencer suspecting the game would end as a Final 2 and sharing that with Tony. But we didn't see him share that with you or Woo nor did we see you suspecting it on your own. Had you left that Final 4 challenge suspecting it'd be a Final 2 because of what
Jeff Probst
had said or did you arrive at that theory earlier on?
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
Well, I mentioned it at Tribal Council a couple weeks ago in travel. I said, "It could be a Final 2," because when you sit out there and you're keeping track of days, and if you're like a fan, you kind of know what's going to happen on which day or you can estimate.
So we had a certain amount of days left, and there was just this one glaring day where I was like, "We're not going to be walking around with people's torches that day."
And we were told we're not getting a family visit, so I already was on track thinking it was a Final 2. When my husband was there, I said, "It's going to be a Final 2," to him. So I think everyone -- I don't know if Tony or Woo put it together, but I know Spencer and I were definitely banking on that.
Reality TV World: Would you have done anything differently if you had known it was going to be a Final 2 definitively, like earlier in the game? Because there seemed to be a lot of focus on the whole, "Who should I have in the Final 3," type of thing and the dynamics of a three vote versus a two vote.
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
I don't think it would've changed my game, because my game was such an individual game. I never really was in these Final 3's and Final 2's.
I played the game alone basically without great allies. So personally, for me, it wouldn't have changed my game. I think it would've changed Tony's game because he probably would've kept [Trish Hegarty] and then let someone else make that decision to get rid of her.
Reality TV World: Would you have voted Tony out if you had known his special powers idol wasn't good at the Final 4 Tribal or did you want him in the end at that point?
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
I wanted Tony there. I mean, I really thought my best bet was to go with Tony and Woo, and I didn't care about his idols. I made fun of them. And again, being a fan of the game, it would be patently unfair to have an idol that you could use at [Final] 4.
And we didn't know when we were at [Final] 5 whether it was for sure, you know, a Final 2 or a Final 3. It would just -- the fans would go nuts if someone had this unilateral power to get rid of someone at Final 4.
Reality TV World: I was going to ask about that. Why didn't we see more suspicion of Tony's idol? Was that because that suspicion didn't exist on your part or Spencer's part? Because you both seemed to be very knowledgeable about the game, and like you said, the idea you could get a free pass to the Final 3 with the jury would seem ludicrous.
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
Yeah, I mean, I have confessionals saying that, and I didn't care what his super power was because I wasn't going to write Tony's name down. I love to give him a hard time and tell him [that] I was going to write his name down -- because it sends him into a tailspin -- but I had no intention of getting rid of Tony.
But we're out there, I mean, who knows how many hours of footage they have and why they make the decisions they do. I think they wanted to play it up like everybody was thinking Tony was a genius for saying he could use it at [Final] 4 when everybody was like, "Whatever."
Reality TV World: So it sounds like you and Spencer were pretty confident Tony was lying about his idol and it just didn't get edited into the episodes. Is that right?
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
Well, I think Spencer believed he might be able to use it. Spencer really liked Tony and believed a lot of what Tony said. (Laughs) Me, I didn't believe a word that came out of, really, anybody's mouth out there, (laughs) so.
Reality TV World: You were shown saying during the finale that Tony played on a winning all the way up to the merge and he really didn't have to do much. Did you really believe that or were you just brainstorming ways to knock Tony's game at the final Tribal if you ended up making it that far? And watching the season back now, has your opinion of Tony changed at all?
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
I think Tony was very fortunate. I think he played a great game, but I think he was very fortunate to be on a tribe where he could have followers. The Brains tribe, not one of us was ever going to be a follower. So there was no chance to get a tight two or three people.
You really need two people in this game that are going to be loyal to you. You see it time and time again, and you need to make them feel valued and then you need to take them to the end and make your case.
So Tony had that! He had Trish and Woo. Tony had allies and he had idols and he was on a winning tribe. They ate like kings, they had that extra bag of rice, you know, they did not suffer as we suffered over at "Team Dysfunction" over there.
Reality TV World: During the reunion show, Jeff made a comment that one of the things he was amazed to see this season was how many people came to play the game. And from what got shown on television, it almost seemed like the opposite. It seemed like there weren't many people willing to make really big moves against Tony and he appeared to have a lot of followers. So what do you think about Jeff's comment? Do you think Tony had much competition out there? (Laughs)
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
I think I was Tony's only competition strategically. I think if Spencer was playing the game he said he was going to play, when Tony came to him and said, "Let's vote out [Jefra Bland]," or even [LJ McKanas], I was happy that LJ went because he was a strategic threat.
I think Spencer missed several opportunities to make a move and play the game instead of being dragged around, and I think that's just being young, you know? And Jeff and I have talked about this, where I would have that feeling inside of me.
He talks to
s all the time who say they had this feeling and they didn't go with it, and he said that was the difference between me and the people who ended up on the jury. Whenever my radar went off, like, "Hey, I need to do something," I didn't even think twice about it. I just said, "I'm going to do it because I don't want to go home and I don't want to be the person who didn't play their hand."
So that's why with the [Sarah Lacina] flip, I just had that feeling and I went with it. I had no assurance from the people I went to, but I had no assurance from the people I was leaving.
Reality TV World: You were shown saying your plan when you had flipped on the Brains originally was to go to the end with two Brawns and you also felt good about going to the end with Tony and Woo. Why had that been your plan? Why two Brawns instead of two Beauties or a Brawn and a Beauty?
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
Well none of the Beauties were ever going to make it to the end. I mean, they were just fodder at the merge there. I mean, LJ, maybe, but LJ was scheming too hard, you know?
And Tony had all of his agents out on the field. Instead of laying low and playing it cool, he was trying to make moves. Once I made that move, people thought, "Oh my God. I've got to start making moves." That was the talk around camp.
"I got to make a move."
"Kass made a move. Oh my gosh, we've got to start making moves!"
So that's how you got this crazy, you know, post merge. (Laughs) Everybody would say, "I need something on my resume." So it was pretty funny, but I think [Jeremiah Wood] and [Morgan McLeod] and Jefra were all going to be people's goats in the traditional sense -- in terms of not worrying about them playing strategically.
Reality TV World: Can you tell me your thoughts on Spencer? You made some comments that would suggest maybe you don't think too highly of him, and he also was shown calling you a "brain-dead weasel" and what not. So what was your relationship with him really like?
Kassandra "Kass" McQuillen:
I think Spencer is a great guy. I think he's going to do very well in life, and I think he and I are very much alike in how we're very cerebral. And I love him. Last night was tough for both of us. It was the first time we're both watching the show with our own grave ending. I love Spencer, I mean, he's a brilliant kid and he will evolve into a great man.

I normally don't like donuts, but these look absolutely amazing! I love how the recipe uses such classic winter flavors as pumpkin and hazelnut to make these sugary treats simply irresistible.
I can't wait to bake them for house guests over Thanksgiving weekend or serve them with hot cider. Delish!
Recipe (from Cannelle et Vanille via Bliss'd)
375 grams flour
55 grams hazelnut flour
10 grams baking powder
8 grams baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp ground cloves
10 grams salt
110 grams pumpkin puree
60 grams whole milk, room temperature
40 grams sour cream, room temperature
100 grams sugar
2 eggs, room temperature
60 grams butter, melted
Canola oil, for frying
400 grams sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
50 grams hazelnuts, toasted, skinned and finely chopped
In a large bowl mix together the flour, hazelnut flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the pumpkin, milk, sour cream, sugar, eggs and melted butter. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and fold until it comes together. Don't worry if it's lumpy.
Dust your work surface with a bit of flour and dump the dough on it. Knead lightly until it comes together. Dust the top lightly with flour and roll to 1/2″ thick. Using a doughnut cutter or two round cookie cutters, cut out the doughnuts and place them on a sheet pan with a silicon mat or parchment and dusted with some flour.
To fry the doughnuts, fill a pan up to 2″ of canola oil. Heat the oil until it reaches 375F. Do not over-crowd the pan with doughnuts. Fry about 5 at a time (depending on the size of the pan). They will sink to the bottom but then float to the top. Turn them over and let them cook for an additional 2 minutes or so.
Drain them on paper towels and while hot, coat them with the cinnamon-hazelnut sugar.

My puppy received meds for possible scabies. I am itching and have bumps and "burrows" on my back, stomach, and back of elbows. Can any type of dog scabies transfer to humans?

Been there myself. The Sarcoptic mange mite is transferable to humans and they will live on surfaces as well. If the dog has been sleeping in your bed, or lying on the sofa these items are infected with mites.
The good news is they don't live on humans very well and die in 3 weeks. The bad news is they itch so bad you will want to dig them out of your skin with your fingernails long before then.
You must get rid of the mites on the dog and the surfaces in your home and possibly outside as well.
Links to remedies:
I purchased a shampoo at the Vets to ease the dogs itch and was dabbing it on my itchy bumbs too. I used the HP, mule team borax and water mix on myself. Soaked an old sock and wore it til dry (one leg was the only place they invaded) This gave me instant relief and lasted 12 hours or so, I repeated..
Good luck

Wow,I definitely learned something here today,never knew "mange" could spread to humansThis is a good warning for folks who might be tempted to ignore a little scratching or hair loss.Skin problems seldom resolve themselves.We've never had any mange here.I did see one man bring an entire litter of Boxer pups into the vet, all had mange@less than 6 wks. I thought that was pretty strange, but I guess it may be becoming more prevelant, like bedbugs for humans.Maybe the mites are developing resistance to the insecticides.20 Mule Team Borax also kills fleas around the house. It's a natural substance and I don't think insects can become "immune" to it's effectiveness. It wouldn't hurt to treat your home with the 20 Mule Team Borax,I have a hunch it might work to kill the mange mite too.GoogleHappy Jack"+mange,there are some products there too.I bought a bottle of the mange treatment for a friend who took in a mangy bald stray,it was working but someone shot the poor dog.

They can transfer but should die in a few days, yes.
Hope this helps, our scabies are a little different then the dog type
Dieta answered on 11/20/09. Helpful? / 0
Yucko Chucko! Scabies! Been there. Done that. And yes, they can transfer from animal to human, then back again. Scabies can be difficult to get rid of once you've got the infestation. because they continue to burrow and lay eggs that hatch in cycles. You'll need to treat yourself and probably everyone else in the house not once, but at least twice when the eggs hatch again. All linens and clothing must be washed in hot, hot water. Vacuum your sofa and beds (any furniture the dog has been on) and make sure you toss the vacuum bag out when finished.
Scabies can last for weeks causing itching, scratching and skin infections. Trust me when I tell you they won't just die off in a few days if left untreated. After working in health care for ages I can tell you I've seen plenty of human infestations that were pretty ugly and time consuming to erradicate. Your doctor can also prescribe topical medication for you and your family...and it ain't cheap either.
Good luck!

After reading the previous logs I had doubts about finding this one but persistence paid off and soon had the cache in hand! I agree this was the most difficult in the series to find. Awesome series, great job on the creative camo for all the hides! Definitely earned my favorite series award! Thanks for the fun!

Date of Stay: May, 2009
We have visited this park numerous times and have always had a good experience and leave happy with no complaints. It is a "parking lot with hook ups," but is convenient to the beach, shopping, dining and the Huntington Beach pier. Staff has always been very friendly and helpful. We will return again!
Date of Stay: July, 2008
Was a pleasant stay. The park was clean and quiet. Had many tent sites and lots of play area for kids. The closest acceptable RV park to Carlsbad Caverns.
Date of Stay: July, 2008
This is was a very pleasant park to spend a few days at. It is small, seemed to cater to retired/senior RV'ers, very quiet, and the owner (Harvey) was very helpful and pleasant. I would certainly recommend it and would revisit for future trips.
Date of Stay: July, 2008
This RV park advertised as being "closest RV park to town," which proved to be true; however, they were not close enough to walk/bike into town. They failed to note that they are located in "dairy country" which proved to have an over abundance of flies and smell of manure. For those reasons, we would not stay there again. One night there and we were very anxious to hit the road.

An ad featuring Adolf Hitler placed at a Turkish mall was pulled following complaints by Jewish leaders.
The ad at the Sapphire Mall in Istanbul was promoting a wax museum. It featured a large color portrait of the late Nazi leader standing behind a podium.
The text read, "If you could meet anyone, who would it be?" Other choices included Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, Napolean Bonaparte, Suleiman I, Elvis Presley, Leonardo da Vinci and Michael Jackson. Hitler was the only figure whose picture was displayed.
"This commercial was pulled after Jewish leaders complained about it," Rifat Bali, a Turkish historian who has written several books about Turkish Jewry, told JTA. He added that the ad "did not appear to glorify Hitler in any way," though such cases have been observed in the past in Turkey.

Alec Guinness: Before Obi-Wan Kenobi, there were the eight D'Ascoyne family members (photo: Alec Guiness, Dennis Price in 'Kind Hearts and Coronets') (See previous post: "Alec Guinness Movies: Pre-Star Wars Career.") TCM won't be showing The Bridge on the River Kwai on Alec Guinness day, though obviously not because the cable network programmers believe that one four-hour David Lean epic per day should be enough. After all, prior to Lawrence of Arabia TCM will be presenting the three-and-a-half-hour-long Doctor Zhivago (1965), a great-looking but never-ending romantic drama in which Guinness — quite poorly — plays a Kgb official. He's slightly less miscast as a mere Englishman — one much too young for the then 32-year-old actor — in Lean's Great Expectations (1946), a movie that fully belongs to boy-loving (in a chaste, fatherly manner) fugitive Finlay Currie. And finally, make sure to watch Robert Hamer's dark comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets »

text: Ok, I've got a 99 Deville and I'm having a problem with coolant leaking from the coolant tank (through the cap/overflow hose). I know that air and fluid go through the purge line from the water pump to the coolant tank but I was wondering how coolant gets back to the rest of the system. Is it through the same line or is there another line (my car had the engine replaced and there is reason to believe things were changed a bit). Thanks.

Might I suggest 12 guage shotgun shells
Well, I picked up a Remington 870 Express Magnum (12ga, 18.5" barrel, 3" chamber) tonight... It's a used 870 but in near perfect condition, I picked it up for $199.00...
Now, I'm needing some ammo suggestions...
I'm not going to do any hunting with it, strickly home defense.

"bing bang boom! hair out...hamburger time" - William Murderface
that appears to be a rifled slug barrel you've got on there. so that being said you may want to get yourself some sabot slugs to be shooting out of that...
if that is the rifled slug barrel, then im not sure that you can shoot regular shot out of it. I have the exact same gun, but i have two barrels for mine, a 26 in smoothbore and a 18.5 in. rifled slug barrel.
just something you may want to check out.
if it is a rifled slug barrel then you need to shoot a non-rifle slug. for instance i shot a remington coppersolid sabot slug out of mine.
Last edited by M&P40; 02-09-2007 at 09:03 AM. Reason: adding more
Good looking shot gun you got there JS. I always liked 00 buckshot for home defense. It will get the job done if you ever have to use it. Good luck.
Is that real wood on there, or composite material dressed up to look like wood? I really like they way it looks compared to the all black version of the HD 870 Express.
As for load...
Don't go smaller than #4 buck...
Also, where do you live? How close are your neighbors? Do you have others in the house with you? All of this should be addressed before you standardize on a load.
I also recommend that you buy a box of #1, #4, and 00 ammo, and head to the range. All three of those loads should stop an intruder...look for spray pattern that you like the most.
If you decide to get Reduced recoil, you are limited to #4 or 00...for some odd reason, you cannot get #1 in a reduced recoil...nobody I have seen makes it.
I like and use the reduced recoil 00 buck from Remington or Federal in my 870. You lose a little energy do to the reduced recoil...but not much. Makes a big difference when I practice. I don't get beat so hard I flinch. Trouble is you cannot find at just any store....but it's out there.
go with 000 buckshot.

"No one is going to try to fill my mother's shoes, what she did was fantastic. It's about making your own future and your own destiny and Kate will do a very good job of that."
"When I first met Kate I knew there was something very special about her. I knew there was possibly something that I wanted to explore there. We ended up being friends for a while and that just sort of was a good foundation. Because I do generally believe now that being friends with one another is a massive advantage. And It just went from there."
"You hear a lot of horror stories about proposing and things going horribly wrong - it went really, really well and I was really pleased when she said yes."
Prince William (born William Arthur Philip Louis in London, England, on June 21, 1982) is the Duke of Cambridge. As the elder son of Prince Charles and Princess Diana, he is second in the line of succession to the British throne, after his father. As a child, he was greatly affected by his parents' divorce in 1996 and his mother's tragic death in 1997. After graduating from St. Andrew's University in Scotland, Prince William completed training to become part of the Royal Air Force, which he continues to serve. Being born into the spotlight, Prince William has used his notoriety to bring attention to a number of charitable organizations, including Tusk Trust, a charity that works towards the preservation of African wildlife. It was on a trip to Africa that the Prince became engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Kate Middleton, with Princess Diana's engagement ring in October 2010. The tabloid-favorite couple married at Westminster Abbey on April 29th, 2011.
Best Known For:
Prince William was born into British monarchy and is second in line to be the King of England. A global obsession with the Prince's marriage to Kate Middleton has made the couple's every move highly publicized.
Personal Life:
Prince William shied away from the press after the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana, in 1997. He has since become more accepting of the media, using his popularity to draw attention to a number of charitable causes. On July 22, 2013, Prince William and Kate welcomed their first child, Prince George. On May 2, 2015, they welcomed their second child together, a baby girl, Princess Charlotte!
