Jeff Burton, driver of the #31 Caterpillar Chevrolet, met with members of the media at Charlotte Motor Speedway and discussed the new Gen-6 race car, testing today at Charlotte Motor Speedway and other topics. TALK ABOUT THE NEW CAR AND HEADING INTO THE 2013 SEASON HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT YOUR TEAM: "Obviously we had some work to do based on our performance last year and the year before for that matter. We certainly made a lot of changes from the very top of the company to a lot of positions within individual teams. I feel good about what we have done. I think our preparation, what we have done to be ready before we start building cars is at a different level today than it was last year and even the year before. I'm excited about what we have going on. I feel like we have something to prove and looking forward for the opportunity to be able to do that. As it relates to the new car I think everybody is kind of in the same boat. It's an exciting time. The car is a really good looking car. It has a lot of potential, as I've said before; I think that there has been more work that has gone into this car in the sense of just not the aesthetics but the opportunity to have better races. As we have evolved the sport into much more of a mile and a half oriented sport it has become harder to have the good close racing that people want to see. I think the racing is really similar to what it has always been, but I think the fans want more than that today. A lot of effort has gone into making these cars so that we will have better races. I'm really excited about that because I think at the end of the day that is the corner stone of this sport. Is an exciting day at the race track whether you are watching it on TV or watching it at the track, without that the sport is in trouble." SOME TEAM IS PROBABLY GOING TO CONNECT WITH THIS CAR EARLY. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS GOING TO BE THE MAGIC BULLET? IS IT GOING TO BE SOMEBODY WITH A REAR SUSPENSION DEAL, IS IT GOING TO BE AERO? WHAT IS GOING TO STAND OUT EARLY ON? "I wish I knew that because then we would be that guy. Honestly, we talk a lot about trick, but I will tell you that I'm not a trick guy. I believe that you have to have an entire package. When you have that entire package you may kind find a trick that makes that package better, but that doesn't necessarily transfer to the team next to you in the garage. The teams that will do the best have done a good job of understanding the aerodynamics of this car. Understanding the chassis stuff, we don't have rear bars now. It's a combination of all those things. I don't think it's going to be just that a team just said 'wow we found this trick little piece and put on the car.' It's more about understanding the entire package and maximizing the package, then having a grasp on what maximizing the package means from one track to the next. What you do here isn't going to work when you go to Phoenix. It is understanding the car, understanding your driver, understanding the things you are dealing with, understanding the tires, understanding all that stuff and putting a package together that works with all that. I don't think it's one thing." YOU HAVE TALKED ABOUT YOUR STRUGGLES THE PAST YEAR OR TWO AND TRYING TO GET THINGS STRAIGHTENED OUT AND BACK ON TRACK. IS IT A GOOD THING THAT YOU GUYS HAVE A NEW CAR OR IF THAT GOING TO BE ANOTHER ISSUE THAT YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH? "I think the timing of the car is good for us as a company. I think that by anybody's measurements we didn't have a good year through the company last year. We went almost the whole year without winning a race. Kevin (Harvick) won really late in the year. So for us, I think it's easier when there is a whole new car with a lot of new rules, a new rear rule package. I think it is easier to start over than it is taking an existing vehicle and starting over. It gives us a chance to stop and say 'okay what is the best way to develop a car' and through that build a program that works for that. I think the timing of that is good for RCR (Richard Childress Racing) in general. Whether that will yield results or not we will see. I think the timing of it is good for us." HOW MUCH TIME HAVE YOU HAD IN THE GEN-6 CAR ON AN INTERMEDIATE TRACK LIKE THIS AND IS IT WORRISOME WITH EVERY MINUTE THAT PASSES OF THE TESTING TIME YOU ARE NOT GETTING? "This will be my fifth time in the Gen-6 car. Testing is valuable, there is no question about it, but if we got two hours today, everybody got two hours. So, we have had a fair amount of test time with the cars. This test is a bonus. The last time I remember doing testing like this was when the Taurus was first introduced. We came over and we were working on the Taurus. I view this as a bonus test. We wouldn't normally get this. Again, if we get two hours then the whole field gets two hours. Again, it's about the teams that are most prepared." A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SKEPTICAL, BASED ON THE PERFORMANCE THE LAST TWO YEARS, IF RCR CAN REBOUND. WHAT HAS YOU EXCITED THAT THERE CAN BE A TURN AROUND? "The direction of the company, the mindset of the company in regard to 'what do we have to do to be better', the commitment to that, the commitment to, I'm going to call it, a new philosophy. Those things are there and those things are real. I won't sit here today and guarantee you that is going to give results. I believe it will. You are right we have to show it. For me to sit here today and tell all you guys we are going to do this and we are going to do that, I think is ridiculous. I can tell you that the commitment to improve is there. The philosophy to improve is there. It is a different philosophy; it's a different way of doing business than we have done it before. It's what I have believed in and that is why I'm optimistic. We will see. I believe in my heart things will be a lot better. Every team in that garage works hard too. It will be a challenge. I truly believe it's going to be a lot better." ARE YOU TREATING THE FIRST FEW RACES AS A TEST SESSION TO UNDERSTAND THE CAR BETTER? AS A REFERENCE POINT CAN YOU GET THE PACKAGE FROM THE OLD CAR MODIFIED TO THE NEW CAR JUST TO HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT YOU CAN DO? "I think that racing is a set of building blocks. Every testing event, every race, every year you keep putting blocks on top of the next block. You are building more and more information. We are certainly going to use the information that we have from last year. We use information that we have from 10 years ago. You learn and you apply what you learned. I think that it is a continuing evolution of your thought process. As far as using the first few races for a test I mean honestly, no different than any other year. We are going to go to the Daytona 500 with the best stuff we know how to win with. We are going to go do everything we can to be successful. When we got to the Fourth of July race in Daytona those things will be different because we will be smarter, we will have learned more. It's no more test session than every other week is a test session. You are always hoping to be good. You are always hoping to be able to learn something from one week to apply to the next week. I don't view this car being any different in that regard. I think the learning curve could be quicker. When you have the same basic car for three years you are going to learn a whole lot less in that last year than you did in the first year. I think that the learning curve could be steep." DO YOU SEE ANYTHING IN THESE CHANGES THAT FOR YOU PERSONALLY SEEM LIKE A PRESENT, A CHRISTMAS PRESENT IN A SENSE? "It's an interesting question because I had a conversation with another member of the media at Daytona and there was conversation about this car is going to have more downforce and you won't have to drive the car as loose. I said on the outside that makes sense, but on the inside typically I like cars set-up looser than my teammates. So, you never know. There is nothing that I look at that I just look at this car and say 'wow that is really going to benefit me'. Honestly, what I pay attention to is what we need to do with the No. 31 to benefit me. The thing that has been hard the last two years and it's something I haven't dealt with much in my career is that the things that Kevin (Harvick) has liked haven't worked for me. That hasn't been a good thing. That hasn't always been like that at RCR. It just kind of popped up for some reason. We really felt a lot of the same things before. Although we wouldn't run the same set up's we would have a lot of the same comments and over the last couple of years we haven't. That has been a difficult thing. It hasn't been just me either. It's kind of been throughout the company. One driver likes this, the other driver likes that we are not in the same area. That has been very confusing. I'm answering you question in a really long way because I don't really know how to answer it other than to say that I'll tell you in a few weeks. I will tell you in a few months. At the end of the day, us doing a good job with whatever the rule package is that is what it's about. We've got to give me what I need to be successful. If we do that then we will be doing the right things we need to do." YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH THESE SITUATIONS BEFORE WHERE YOU'VE STRUGGLED, AND PEOPLE WONDER HOW MUCH LONGER ARE YOU GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO IT AND HOW MUCH LONGER WILL YOU KEEP YOUR RIDE. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT GOING INTO THIS YEAR? DO TESTS LIKE THIS CREATE MORE URGENCY BECAUSE OF ALL THE TALK? "Well, you know, I want to be respected by my peers. And that does matter to me. I think anybody who says it doesn't is a pretty shallow individual and I think you always want to be respected by the things around you. I don't want to be in the conversation about is he going to have a ride or whatever; I don't want to be in there because honestly, the reason I don't want to be there is because that means things aren't going well. I understood 20 years ago, more than that; I understood 25 years ago, when somebody started paying me to drive a race car, that it was different than driving for your dad. And I don't drive for my dad. I drive for my boss. And he has bosses. He has sponsors that require and demand, as they should, success. And so, I'm tough enough to handle the pressure. If I wasn't, I would have never accepted a position 25 years ago to get paid by somebody. I don't want to be involved in those conversations because I enjoy coming in and talking to you guys (media). I enjoy it. And to talk about those things isn't fun. We're not moving the ball. We're not making the sport better. It's just a conversation about bad things. So, I don't like to be involved in that because of that. And it really has nothing to do with the perception or any of that. It's just that I want to talk about the good things and the fun things. I understand not everything is fun about racing. You are going to have some tough days. But generally, it needs to work well. And I have no interest in just being here. I have no interest in getting a paycheck just to show up and drive. I want to bring energy. I want to bring excitement. I want to have enthusiasm. I want to be part of a fight. I want to leave the track disappointed when we do badly. And that's what you have when you're doing well. So, that's the reason I don't want to be involved in those conversations. I can tell you this as the God's honest truth: I've been paid to drive race cars for a long time. But I've never driven race cars to get paid. Does that make sense? I drove race cars because it was my passion. And I do it today because it's my passion. I've been fortunate enough to get paid; I'm one of the few people, I live a blessed life. I get paid to do my hobby. But that doesn't mean it's still not; just because I get paid, I still don't have a passion for it. So I want to be successful. I want to race Jimmie Johnson for the championship. I want to have the pressure going to Homestead (that) if you don't get it done, Burton, you're going to finish second. I want that pressure. That's why I do it. The other pressure sucks. It's not fun. So that's the reason why. I just really don't want to be in those conversations because it's just no damn fun." WHO DO YOU FEEL WILL ADAPT THE QUICKEST? "That is a tough question. It is not a mistake that you have a group of drivers that consistently run well, Matt (Kenseth) being one of them. The people that have benefited by this the most are the people that have found a way to know more about it than their competitors. That is who is going to benefit by it. As good as Matt Kenseth is, if his team has looked things wrong over the last three months and they go to Phoenix with the wrong philosophy, he isn't going to be successful. I don't have a way to answer that question other than to say that the teams that are the most prepared and understand it the most, individual teams and companies are going to have the most success." WHAT IS UP WITH HARRISON (BURTON-JEFF'S SON) THIS COMING YEAR? ARE YOU FEELING HEAT FROM HIM KIND OF COMING UP BEHIND YOU AND ARE YOU SPENDING A LOT OF MONEY ON HIM? "I hope so, and yes. (Laughs) He does drive for his Father, I need to get him a boss! We are moving into the late model thing full time, so we actually go Sunday and Monday to test. It that goes well, we're going to race him in Georgia next weekend. Then the plan is to run him down in New Smyrna for eight races in nine nights. Then from there, we don't really have a hard schedule because we're waiting to see how he evolves and where he is. We want to put him in a position where it is hard for him, but not too hard. Until we really get a chance to evaluate him, it's hard to know. So, we are remaining flexible. We haven't put a hard schedule around him. We'll see where his talent is at this point, and then we'll make the decision about what we need to do with him." ISN'T IT TRUE THAT WE REALLY DON'T KNOW WHO MIGHT BE GOOD DESPITE WHO HAS BEEN IN NATIONWIDE CARS, OR WHO HAS BEEN IN THE OLD CAR, OR WHO HAS BEEN OR WHO HASN'T BEEN? "Y'all don't take this the wrong way, but we don't know in the garage, and that means y'all don't know either. (LAUGHS WITH MEDIA AUDIENCE). No disrespect intended, but it's fun, I'm a sports fan too, and it's fun to sit down before the year and say 'This is the team that's going to win the Super Bowl.', but how many of us are wrong? By far the majority of us are wrong. It's fun to try and analyze it and say 'Well this guy did this in 1932, and this guy did that. And this team did this.' All that is fun. Every year is a new year. Again, it's not a coincidence that certain drivers have success no matter what their situation is. That's not a coincidence. I think none of us know. We've all been surprised before how teams we expected were going to be really good weren't, and how teams we didn't think were going to be very good, were much better than we thought. Then we also fall into the trap of there is always the team early in the year, like eight or nine races in 'WOW, where did they come from.' Then the year is over and they aren't there anymore. We always fall into that trap too. You just never know, and I don't think any of us know right now." YOU SAID EARLIER YOU THINK THIS CAR CAN LEAD TO BETTER RACING, FROM THE SEAT, WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT YOU FEEL THAT MAKE YOU BELIEVE THAT? "My theory is based on years of experience, and watching what is going on with this sport; how it's evolved. We've gone through this thing-a lot of downforce; little downforce; a lot of grip; low grip; all these different tire combinations. At the end of the day, the better the cars are stuck in the race track, the closer the cars run to each other. A lot of us remember years ago that we went to the five in five rule when we took downforce off, and the racing suffered from that. When the COT first came out, Goodyear was still using the tires it had used the year before. The cars didn't drive very well at all, and the quality of racing suffered. Especially on big tracks, the better the grip is, the closer the action can be. NASCAR, Goodyear, everybody…has gone into this process saying 'Okay, can we take downforce off and put a lot of mechanical grip in it?' 'Will that make better racing?' They've looked at a lot of different things, and what's come out of it is it appears that more downforce; more grip; those things are going to make the racing better. I believe we are going to make more grip this year than we have ever made. "Now that's not to say every race is going to be the greatest race in NASCAR's history. We have to have realistic expectations. Some races are going to be boring. Some football games are boring. Some basketball games are boring. But, the average race has got to be a fun race to watch. I believe that more grip gives the drivers more opportunity to put their car in a position that they wouldn't be able to put it if they didn't have that grip. That's why I think the racing is going to be better. I may be wrong, we'll see. I think we have to change our mind set too because you track where the sport has gone-we don't at North Wilksboro anymore, so we lost two short track races. We used to run two races at Darlington, we now run one. We used to run two races at Rockingham-we don't run any. We replaced them with either flat one-mile race tracks, or with mile-and-a-half tracks. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that if you put 43 cars on a half-mile race track, you're going to have more action than if you put 43 cars on a mile-and-a-half race track. So we have got to find a way to get the cars closer together on a mile-and-a-half tracks. How do we do that? The only way to do that is to make them drive better. Slow them down a little bit; make them drive better, and try to get them closer together so you have more action. "I'm of the belief, and I may be wrong about this as I am of everything, but I'm of the belief that our fans expect more today than they did 10 years ago. I watch a lot of racing as you guys do, I just don't think the racing is different last year as it was 10 years ago, but a lot of fans do. I think the expectation level is raised with the advent of the X-Games. With the advent of people jumping motorcycles on top of the thing in Las Vegas three years ago on New Year's. I think the expectation level has got raised. We have to match that. We have got to find a way to get there. The only way to do that is create more action. People don't want to go to the race track and watch a car get eight seconds out in front of the second place car. They don't want to watch that. They want to see a race. The only way to do that is put the cars in closer proximity to each other I think." YOU SEND MORE DOWNFORCE, MORE MECHANICAL GRIP. IS IT NOT LESS DOWNFORCE ON THESE CARS? "It is a ton more downforce on these cars. So, to be clear, the speedway cars have a lot less downforce. So there is a lot less downforce on the Daytona/Talladega cars assuming they don't change the spoiler between now and then, and there is quite a bit more downforce on every other car. So the Daytona/Talladega packages are completely different. That spoiler is (makes hand gesture). These spoilers are tall enough that you almost can't see over the top of them. Matters of fact, some drivers have complained they can't see over them. It is just two completely different packages." THERE IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT INSPECTION PROCESS FOR THE NEW CARS WITH THE USE OF LASER. IS THAT GOING TO MAKE THE COMPETITION EVEN MORE EVEN? "I think one of the things we suffer from too is that our sport is a lot different than every other sport. In every other sport, they play on a field; they're 100 yards. Baseball fields I know are a little different. The bases are the same distance apart. Major League Baseball provides a baseball. NFL provides a football. So we have a sport in which we all race each other every week. It's not Duke vs. Carolina, it's all of us every week. We race at completely different facilities every week, and we bring the ball with us. So, there are a lot of moving targets. And so one of the things that our sport has always suffered from, whether it's true or not, is that when Jimmie Johnson wins five championships, oh, it's because his car is different than everybody else's. They're cheating, they're doing this, and they're doing that. I think anything we can do to expose the fans to all of the rules, so that when NASCAR makes a call during the race, they understand that they weren't trying to favor Earnhardt Jr. because they made a call on pit road, or that the rule was enforced, they didn't make it up as they go, the better we are. And that goes for the inspection process as well. The better we have an opportunity to show the fans, look, every car rolls across this thing, here's all the numbers, it prints out for everybody, unless there's somebody up there with, you know, the man behind the curtain well here comes this car so let's push this button, you know, I think it takes away some of that crap where people think oh well, they made this rule for this, you know? So I think it's a good thing. It's an extremely expensive proposition for NASCAR, but I think keeping us in a box is a good idea and I think letting the fans know that everybody gets to bring their own ball, okay? That's part of the sport. That's one of the coolest parts of the sport, but there are limitations to what they can do to that. And the more we can show them how we police those limitations, the better off we are, I think." IF THESE CARS HAVE MORE DOWNFORCE, DOES THAT MEAN THEY'RE GOING TO BE SOMEWHAT EASIER TO DRIVE FOR YOUNG DRIVERS COMING UP OR FOR SOMEBODY LIKE DANICA PATRICK, WHERE THE TRANSITION INTO SPRINT CUP IS GOING TO BE EASIER? "Well, they're going to make more grip. Whether that's easier or not, I don't know because the more grip they make, the harder you drive them. And you still have to find that edge. You still have to find that limit. So if no one else was here, and you went out in a car that made more grip, then yes, it's easier. But, when you bring 45 or 48 other cars, and everybody's trying to go faster than the next guy, then all of a sudden it's hard again. So yeah, just driving it all by yourself and not watching a stopwatch, without a doubt it's going to be a little easier in some sense, but whenever we start running today, everybody in that garage is going to start looking at how are we? Are we fast enough? How much do we need to pick-up? And that's when it's going to get hard. And even if it makes high grip, you're still going to have to drive it really, really hard. The higher grip they make, the harder you have to drive it. And it requires less finesse. It requires more right foot and less brain. And so I wouldn't say it's going to be easier in the sense that everybody's got the same thing. But just getting in the car, fundamentally they should drive a little better." Team Chevy PR

I am glad to say we have met a heap of people. Im also glad to say that after a three plus year absence there are definately a few tricks this old "cat" remembers... Each night we decided to stay an extra night and the one night in Tartu has turned into three all of which have been massive.
Unfortunately it is probably time to leave a place when random people in the pub and on the street start coming up to you and complimenting your "Yellow Submarine" singing. So we are moving on for a relaxing night in Parnu then onto Riga

(This is the last post of the Shellfish Overload series.)
What do you do when you have different kinds of shellfish but do not want to cook up a storm by getting into a complicated and time-consuming recipe such as bouillabaisse? Well, you make Thai yellow curry.
This dish is so simple to create and takes no more than 30 minutes, but it's bursting with vivid and intense flavors. The zucchini is simply healthy and adds the much needed vitamins; plus this recipe just goes so well with steamed white rice. This is my absolute favorite Thai dish.
Have a great weekend and happy eating!

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science has several events each year to foster student-faculty relationships and to prepare our students to meet the challenges ahead as fully prepared and informed as possible.
Graduates from Rollins' computer science program return to the college to share their journeys, their advice, and their success with current students and faculty. Students learn what courses and projects best prepared alumni for their careers, and ask questions about the road ahead.
Each year during the Spring semester, the math and computer science faculty and staff invite their students to enjoy a day of grilling, volleyball, kayaking, music, and fun on the campus near beautiful Lake Virginia. It's a time to enjoy each other without the pressures of class or homework.
Our senior students have an opportunity to speak with a Career Services representative in class and then to research careers of interest and/or internship opportunities. They then create PowerPoint presentations and present them to fellow students and faculty. It's never too early to find your direction.

The basis of the game is that you are a secret CIA agent named Sam Fisher who must sneak around various bases to recover information for the American government. This is the first of the series and it's stealth gameplay is very popular. You control Sam from a third person perspective and must sneak through shadows, take out guards silently and use gadgets to progress through levels. Don't worry if this sounds complex because there is a detailed training mission, although you will always find it difficult and sometimes numerous attempts at missions and hiding in shadows is necessary.
The graphics are some of the best on the gamecube and help to immerse you in the experience because they are so smooth and detailed, particularly the use of light and shadow which is vital for sneaking around levels. I became very frustrated at times because of having to repeat levels after being seen but I did persist and I found that when you do it is generally worth it. You should be aware there is no multiplayer but there is in some later games of theseries so if that is an issue they might be worth considering.

I am knitting a sweater for my grandbaby and have picked up stitches along sides and neck of sweater the pattern now reads "unpick provisional cast on." Which I tried to do by following a tuturial, its not working though.
Which provisional cast on did you use? There are several of them.
If you've tried from one end of the cast on and it's not working, you might try undoing the cast on from the other end. Sometimes, you make a mistake in the provisional cast on though and it doesn't un-do very neatly. Then you just have to snip and pull out the waste yarn, stitch by stitch. It's not pretty but it works.
Not sure, but I hold the one needle in my right hand and yarn in the left and use my thumb to wrap the yarn around my left thumb to then put the stitch on. When I tried to pull the yarn from the starting point of my cast on (where the tail is), but it didn't unzip like it was supposed to. :knitting:
That sounds like a backward loop cast on which really isn't a provisional cast on, meant to be pulled out to give you live stitches. Look about two-thirds of the way down this page to see 3 different provisional cast ons that you can use next time.http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/cast-onYou can still snip out the cast on you have, it just won't pull out as a single thread.
My favorite provisional cast on is the crochet hook method. There's no actual crochet involved so it's easy.
I've used this cast on for 20+ yrs, but didn't really start knitting patterns till a couple years ago. Sounds like I should change to a provisional one, to make it easier. Thanks!

Whether you're working with freshly roasted, leftover-from-Thanksgiving turkey or simply sliced turkey meat from your neighborhood deli counter, there is no better use for it than being put into a turkey club sandwich.

Great Thanksgiving Leftover Sandwich Ideas
While I like heating up a plate of Thanksgiving leftovers and having a holiday dinner all over again, what I really like to do with leftover turkey is make sandwiches. The breasts are usually so large that you get perfect slices of meat – meaning that they're quite big – for sandwiches and don't need to spend too much time piecing together little bits of ...

Leftover Turkey Sandwiches with Homemade Cranberry Barbecue Sauce
One of the best things about Thanksgiving dinner is that there are always plenty of leftovers for the next day or two. This means that all the time and effort that went into cooking and cleaning on Thursday makes up for the fact that there is no need to spend much time in the kitchen for at least a day or two. Aside from heating ... Read More »
Soft Yogurt Sandwich Rolls
One of my favorite parts about breads – especially homemade bread – is the crispy crust that forms in the oven, but a crispy-crust bread isn't always ideal for all applications.

First, if the stem were screwed in any tighter it would have snapped off. Second, when you return a watch for warranty or repair it doesnt go back to the manufacturer, it goes back to the same company that sold it but under the name SWI. Third, if your not on here to help prevent ripoffs then buy a video game.

Why the retailer?
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 07, 2014POSTED: Thursday, August 07, 2014
The warranty comes from the manufacturer of the watch. In this case, Swiss Legend. Why are you complaining about the retailer?
BTW, those watches have a stem that screws in after setting. If you didn't screw the stem in per the instructions and the water entered there, the warranty will be void anyway.

I am interested in buying a Flynn Quilt frame & was wanting any advice any of you might have. Do you own one, have you used it , & what is your opinion? Any comments would be appreciated!! Thanks, G-ma Becky
I watched him use one at a sewing expo and they seem to work quite well for a small space and small quilts.
I have one, bought it off Craigslist for like $20, haven't used it yet, still working on my hand stitched GFG hexagon quilt. Sorry, I know this is no help to you.
i have one of the square versions...i see they are round pipe poles now... i have 2 different length along with the large pvc pipe used to support the long end of the frame while you work with the end under the machine arm. they are wonderful for hand quilting as well, which is how John Flynn says he used his for a long time before putting it under the machine... mine fits beautifully on my rocking chair arms...
the number one benefit as far as I'm concerned is the ability to stand it on end right behind a door or slide it under a bed to store... takes inches and is light enough for anyone to move, when necessary. NO BASTING!!! that's pretty cool, too....and of course, the ability to just purchase more poles and have any length you want...the ends will go back and forth as needed...
I am thinking of getting one of these so will be watcing this thread for good and bad comments
Have one in the closet. Don't use it. To bad you don't live closer I would give it to you. This one I have is for machine.
Flynn frames have been a topic here many times. Most people either love them or hate them - I think it has to do with whether they spent the time to practice with the frame, because it does take practice. I bought one and used it one time only, so I'm not one of those who spent the time to practice. I used mine with the metal rods extending it out to hold a large quilt, and the rods were so heavy I couldn't do much with the quilt, so I just basted it with water soluble thread and then quilted it on my DSM. (I now have a longarm, but I didn't then.) I didn't keep the frame, because I preferred doing large quilts in sections to trying to maneuver the long heavy rods. However, for a smaller quilt I think it will work very well - if you practice!
A friend and I both bought one years ago at a quilt show. I used it once. It took a very long time to set up and figure out what I was doing. I had a small crib quilt that I tried it on. Even a small crib quilt was too big for the frame. I could have quilted it myself a lot faster on my regular sewing machine. After hearing about my experience, my friend has never tried to use hers. Our opinion was that it was a waste of money.
Thank all of you for your replies. I appreciate everyone on here! I learn soo much each time I look here. Thanks again, G-ma Becky
I had one and just couldn't get the hang of it. I do more big quilts so it didn't really work for me.

I am going for my BA next Wednesday. My breast width is 12.4cm and i am a Small 34b. I had originally decided on the 400cc but when I seen that the 375cc offered the same projection and was closer to my natural width I started to second guess myself. I know the volume difference is only 25cc, but I want what will look most natural on me. I am also afraid of looking Too BIG!.. Or too small for that matter.
Will There Be a Noticeable Difference Between a 400cc or 375cc Cohesive Gel Implant Placed Under the Muscle?
Doctor Answers 2
Difference of 25 cc in Breast Implants Significant?
The 25 cc difference in breast implant volume will likely not be significant clinically. I would suggest that you spend additional time communicating your goals with your plastic surgeon and allow him/her to choose the breast implant that will best meet your goals. Generally speaking, the most common regret after this operation is "I wish I was bigger".
Best wishes with your upcoming procedure.
Web reference: http://www.poustiplasticsurgery.com/Procedures/Procedure_breastAugmentation.htm
Implant size
I would not worry too much about the 25cc difference. Remember a dose of Nyquil in the plastic cup is 30ccs. The time taken at your plastic surgeons office is invaluable to determining your idea of size. I usually tell patients that if you are going between two close sizes-take the bigger one because usually you will wish you had. The most common post-op concern is that the breasts are not big enough even though their concern on the initial visit was that "I don't want to be too big". I think you will be fine with the high profile gel implants.

Flank Steak with Lemon Fennel
Naturally thin cuts such as flank steak and skirt steak cook quickly when seared over medium to high heat for a nice brown crust. You can use your favorite cut, such as strip, but to keep the prep and cook time under 15 minutes, the steak should be no more than ¾ inch thick.
Tip: Very thinly sliced fresh fennel mellows to an almost sweet, oniony flavor when briefly sautéed. Lemon zest adds a touch of citrus without being too sour. If you can't find fennel, or don't like it, substitute onion, and add cracked black pepper in place of the fennel seeds.

Big Ten Set to Kick Off 2008 NFL Draft With First Overall Pick
April 24, 2008
Park Ridge, Ill. - Michigan All-American Jake Long leads the Big Ten's contingent of top players set for another strong showing in the National Football League (NFL) Draft. Long will become the 13th Big Ten student-athlete to be selected first overall when the 2008 event takes place from April 26-27 in New York.
Miami holds the top pick in the draft and has already announced that the team has come to contractual terms with Long and will select him with the No. 1 pick. The two-time Big Ten Offensive Lineman of the Year becomes the first offensive lineman to go first overall since 1997, when St. Louis selected Ohio State's Orlando Pace. Long will be the 13th Big Ten standout to be chosen No. 1 and the first since Penn State's Courtney Brown in 2000. The complete list of overall top picks from the Big Ten appears below.
Over the last five years, an average of 36.6 Big Ten student-athletes has been chosen in the NFL Draft on an annual basis, including six first-round selections per year. The Big Ten and the SEC are the only two conferences to boast an average of at least 36 players and six first-rounders since 2003. At least 40 Big Ten players have been drafted on two occasions, including a high of 44 selections in 2004, a total that ranks second over the last five drafts to the ACC's 51 players chosen in 2006.
Among Big Ten teams, Ohio State ranks first nationally with 39 players chosen by NFL teams over the past five years, followed by Miami of Florida (36), Florida State (33) and Southern California (30). Fourteen Buckeyes were drafted in 2004, the highest single-season total for any school over the five-year span.
The Big Ten and SEC top all conferences with five different institutions boasting at least 20 NFL selections over the last five years, followed by the ACC (3), Big 12 (3) and Pac-10 (2). Other Big Ten programs to produce 20 or more NFL draft picks since 2003 include Michigan (23), Penn State (21), Iowa (20) and Wisconsin (20), while Purdue has recorded 18 NFL draftees during that time.
The Big Ten will hold the 2008 Football Media Days and 37th annual Kickoff Luncheon on Thursday and Friday, July 24-25, at the Hyatt Regency Chicago, featuring all 11 head coaches and some of the conference's top returning players. The 113th season of Big Ten football kicks off on Saturday, August 30, with 10 of 11 schools in action.

In Their Own Words
"I started with folk music. I was first influenced by Buddy Holly and shortly after by the Beatles. That was very guitar-istic music, and it's what led me to fall in love with the guitar. And, when I wanted to take it more seriously, I began to appreciate the difficulty of the instrument, and its inherent mixed blessings. The guitar is a very complicated instrument to master; it has a lot of duplicated notes and difficult fingerings that many other instruments don't. An instrument often dictates how you play and what you'll play. You'll listen to a great horn line or piano voicing, and you just won't be able to do that on the guitar. It can be frustrating at times, but there are still many things we can lift from other instruments and, of course, many things we can do with the guitar that other instruments can't."
"The joy of the guitar is that it has so many different sounds and stylistic approaches. It has a harmonic sound unique to itself, and it can closely simulate the sound of a horn or voice through various techniques like string bending, hammer-ons, and tapping. I think many other instruments have greater difficulty accomplishing the versatile sounds that a guitar can make. Piano is ultimately the best instrument harmonically, no question, but I still believe the guitar is a more versatile instrument in terms of varied sounds and styles."
"When you're performing, your reactions have to be immediate, and everything you've got in your background is going to be used. Practicing and playing at home is important preparation, but it can't simulate or create the same focus and attention that you need, and reactions you'll experience, while performing. You have to get out and play to advance. You'll learn exactly what you need to practice when you are performing regularly."

I really like the STI after driving it yesterday, but also really like the 135i. Money is not a factor, so it is just preference.
The 135i felt like it had a bunch more omph. I like the look of the STI 5 door better. The six speed in the STI really has a short first gear you got to be fast into second to not loose momentum.
Anyway just rambling........Steve

Coco Blog: Update From 'Down Under'
April 1, 2014
Former soccer goalkeeper Callie Corbin "Coco" Langford is spending the semester teaching PE in Australia, and will be posting updates on her trip exclusively on Georgiadogs.com!
While part of me is sad to hear that the world hasn't come crumbling down in my absence, an even greater part of me is happy to hear that the team is finding such success this spring season. My first homesick day came after seeing all the end-of-the-year banquet pictures on the 900 different social media sites that I waste my time on. It was tough not being there to celebrate my senior year, but I'm assuming my dual award for Best Looking and Most Humble is currently in the mail on its way to Australia!
While I might have spent two hours of one day wishing I were in America, I am still so happy to be here Down Under (which is one idiom that I have yet to hear anyone actually use). Working in a high school has been challenging, but also completely affirming at the same time. I was recently accepted to grad school for a school counseling program, so my time spent here at Kent Street Senior High has made me realize that I can and actually want to relive high school for a living. I enjoy all the students and I think that I am connecting with them as well. I had my first "Do you have to go back to America?" from a student, which I think completely counteracts the 10,000 "When is the real teacher coming back?" and "When do you finally leave?" questions that I get regularly.
In exciting news, I am a state champion cricket coach. Yes, you read that right. There has been an extreme learning curve with cricket, but it has been interesting and exciting to learn a new something so new and different from what I am used to. I had someone talk to me about being the contact person for getting cricket started in America… my hysterical laughter was a bit inappropriate when I realized he was serious. I would still choose soccer over cricket any day. The days when I feel most at home is Tuesday and Wednesday when I teach my soccer class. I literally would be floundering if not for the four years of drills and games that I have in my bag of tricks. In my last blog I might have joked about running my students through a UGA Soccer fitness test, but since then, I actually did it. I had one kid puke and one pass out. I don't understand why the kids don't like me! They all call me "Ms. Langford," which makes me cringe and laugh at the same time. If only they knew how little of an adult I actually am.
When not making the students pass out in the name of fitness, I actually have had some really good talks with a few of them. I was definitely brought to Australia for a reason, and I pray that I am making the same kind of impact that these kids and this country are having on me. I do miss America cuisine (Chik-fil-A) and entertainment (Netflix), but this has been such a learning and growing experience that I wouldn't trade for the world. I am so thankful for my time down here, but also extremely thankful for Steve Jobs and the invention of FaceTime.

Drivers pay hefty price for pothole problem
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Drivers said Thursday the pothole problem is costing them thousands of dollars, while the city of Colorado Springs debated how to pay for it.
Mayor Steve Bach said road conditions are the worst he's ever seen.
Robert MacDonald, with the Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments, said there is $11 million in the Pikes Peak Rural Transportation Authority fund to pay for road repairs. The mayor's office is aware of those funds, but says it's not enough.
It costs about $10 to fill one pothole. In 2012, the city filled 28,000 potholes.
The mayor will ask the Colorado Springs City Council for $2 million from the city's emergency reserve fund to fix potholes.
Drivers said small or large, potholes can pack a punch.
"I've had two blowouts. I had brand new tires, had to replace my driver's side tire, and cracked my rims so I had to weld the inside of my rims and I just got them a month prior," said driver Aaron Braatz.
He said that run-in with a pothole cost him $1,300 in repairs to his Cadillac.
Colton Wolfe said he tried to keep up with repairs to his old car because of potholes but it became too pricey. He blames potholes for making him get rid of the car.
"I had to sell it and get a new one because it kept breaking down from all the potholes," said Wolfe.
Courtesy Automotive Service Center owner Dale Kurtz fixes victims of pothole wear and tear.
"We have seen just in the last few weeks an increase in alignments that come in," said Kurtz.
He said drivers shouldn't ignore problems with their cars because of potholes.
"If you don't get these things fixed it can, what we call domino on you, where one thing can turn into another and it can affect other things," said Kurtz.
Bach will ask about the $2 million emergency appropriation at the April 7 council meeting and expects an approval vote the next day.

MICHAEL Bublé has welcomed a son with his wife Luisana Lopilato.
The 37-year-old singer and his 26-year-old spouse named their bundle of joy Noah after he arrived on Tuesday at 2.26am.
The baby was born in Vancouver, Canada, and Michael shared a snap of the happy family via Instagram.
"Overjoyed and filled with gratitude at the arrival of our son," he captioned the shot.
As his Argentine actress partner cradles the sleeping tot while smiling, the new father can be seen beaming while kitted out in a disposable hair cap and blue doctors' scrubs.
The duo, who married in March 2011, announced they were to become parents in January with a video message.
But before that he coughed up the news to Reese Witherspoon as he couldn't contain his excitement.
"I had just found out [we were expecting]. It was the greatest day of my life, so I just said, 'You know, I'm having a baby!'" he shared about who he told first.
The pair found out the gender of their baby when the new pope was selected from his wife's native country.
However, they clearly did not take inspiration for a moniker from the occasion.
"She said, 'It's a sign!' But there is no way we are going to call him Frank, even if it did work well for Frank Sinatra," Michael previously joked.
Prior to the birth, the Canadian crooner explained how determined he is to be the best dad possible.
"I just don't want to look back and say, 'God, I should have been there more,' because I have a feeling that I'll never look back and say, 'Jeez, I should have worked more,'" he said.

Long Beach State sizzled from start to finish to hand Hawaii its first home loss of the Big West Conference season, 92-83 tonight at the Stan Sheriff Center.
It wasn't the start to a four-game homestand that UH (14-6, 3-3 Big West) envisioned. LBSU (8-12, 3-3) shot 60 percent, a season-high mark for a Rainbow Warriors opponent, and knocked UH off its perch as the last Big West team to avoid a league defeat in its own building.
The 'Bows made a season-high 11 3-pointers and got double-figure scoring from five players, but 49ers point guard Mike Caffey went for a career-high 29 points on 10-for-14 shooting. Forward A.J. Spencer added a career-best 24 points on 8-for-10 shooting as the 49ers' X-factor.
Christian Standhardinger and Garrett Nevels led the 'Bows with 18 points apiece. Isaac Fotu added 16 on 8-for-9 shooting, Brandon Spearman scored 14 and Quincy Smith chipped in 11 off the bench.
LBSU attained a one-point halftime lead by shooting 60 percent from the field in the first period. It kept the onslaught going to open the second half, extending its lead to nine with an 8-0 run.
Standhardinger stopped the bleeding with a corner 3-pointer.
Nevels tied it up at 59 with his third 3, this one from the right wing. Fotu came through for consecutive hoops, once against a double team and once in transition, for UH's first lead of the second half at 65-64 with 9:08 remaining.
Caffey answered with strong take to the basket for a 67-66 lead with 6:30 to go, and when UH turned it over and Spencer followed with a wild flip shot while taking contact.
Standhardinger responded with a 3-pointer, UH's 10th of the game, to cut it to 70-69 with under six minutes to play, and another which bounced high and in for a 72-70 UH lead — its last of the game.
LBSU again went up, 76-72 on a steal and two free throws by Tyler Lamb, then pushed its lead to five on a 3-pointer by Caffey with 2:20 to go.
UH turned it over and Lamb converted a layup for a seven-point advantage, but UH came back within moments with a lob from Shamburger to Fotu with 1:37 left to make it 81-76.
Two free throws by LBSU and another lob to Fotu kept the margin the same with 1:24 left. But then the 49ers got a leaner from Spencer on a wild possession and UH had no rebuttal. Caffey sunk two at the line to equal his career-best and UH got no closer.
UH routed The Beach 93-74 in Honolulu last season, and built a 33-point halftime lead in that one. But this time the 49ers answered every highlight play the 'Bows produced, including an alley-oop lob from Keith Shamburger to Nevels in transition before the break.

Meanwhile, the Indigo Wolves terrorist group is possibly the campest bunch of terrorists in town. With their preference for tight vests and camouflage trousers they resemble nothing more than an all-male dance troupe gone bad. As no real motivation is given, I can only imagine that they're upset about the reviews of Kylie's last album, or maybe times are just hard now that Britney Spears isn't in a state to tour. The Wolves' leaders are even more preposterous, with one - the superbly monikered Alex Havoc - having possibly the silliest drawn-out death cry in recent video game history. I can't say whether it's intentional or not, but Ghost Squad is indisputably hilarious.
Indeed, the actual light-gun gameplay is just about right for the Wii's more casual gaming audience. Just about anyone can pick up and start shooting, jabbing the + button every now and then to trigger a continue, then carrying on with the action. There's a little too much going on with four players, but with just two it's an entertaining afternoon's worth of brain-dead blasting.
Still, much as I love Ghost Squad - and I do - I'm still going to have to slap a six score on it, for the simple reason that there's just not enough game here to justify the £25 outlay. Yes, the branching, the unlockables, the high-scores and online leaderboards add replay value, but would I suggest that anyone pays £25 for a game you can hack through in less than thirty minutes, with one level taking less than five? Not on your nelly. I'd tell them that if they wanted a half-decent light gun game they should opt for Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles instead. I would, however, be pleased to suggest that they rent it, because with a mate or two to play with Ghost Squad really is a ball.
Good dumb fun, with plenty of possibly unintentional hilarity. That said, you'd have to be barking to actually buy it.

UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. - The University of Richmond Spiders baseball team used a three-run fifth inning to help defeat the VMI Keydets at Pitt Field on Wednesday, 5-4.
With the win, Richmond improved to 4-0 to start the season for the first time since 2009, while VMI fell to 0-4 with the loss.
Richmond was led offensively by senior 1B Bret Williams and freshman OF Jansen Fraser on the afternoon. Williams went 2-for-4 with a double, while Fraser knocked in a pair of runs with a two-out single in the seventh. Senior OF Matt Zink, junior SS Mike Small and freshman OF Tanner Stanley all drove in runs in the victory as well.
On the mound, it was a solid all-around staff day for the Spiders. Sophomore LHP Chris Bates got the start and pitched three hitless innings, while freshman LHP Ryan Donnelly (1-0) went an inning to get his first career victory. Sophomore LHP Dylan Stoops closed the game out to secure his first collegiate save.
"I thought Bates gave us a quality start, coming out and giving us three good innings on a day where we knew we were going to throw a lot of pitchers," Richmond head coach Mark McQueen said following the win. "Offensively, Williams had a great day swinging the bat and Nick Poulos continued his hot bat. We're going to try and mix some lineups here early on, get everybody in and get everybody used to playing."
VMI got on the board first on Wednesday afternoon, pushing across a run in the top of the fourth to take a 1-0 lead. The Spiders responded in the fifth, scoring three runs in the bottom of the fifth to seize control of the game.
After Poulos reached to start the inning with one of his two singles on the day, freshman Tyler Beckwith reached on an error after trying to sacrifice the runner in to scoring position. After a fielder's choice loaded the bases, Small beat the VMI pitcher to first base, legging out an infield single to tie the game at 1-1.
Following Small, Zink lined a ball off the VMI pitcher, giving Richmond a lead with a RBI single. Next up was Stanley, who hit a sacrifice fly to left field, giving the Spiders a 3-1 lead.
VMI cut the lead in half with a run in the top of the sixth, but Jansen gave the Spiders a three-run cushion with a clutch hit in the bottom of the seventh. With two outs and runners on second and third, Jansen lined a single up the middle for a two-run hit that made the Spider advantage 5-2.
VMI threatened in the ninth, but Stoops successfully closed the game out, securing the 5-4 win for Richmond.
Wednesday's game was one of firsts for the Spiders as four freshmen made their Richmond debuts. Along with Beckwith and Donnelly, pitchers Peter Bayer and Dan Martinson all got game action for the first time.
The Richmond Spiders hit the road for the first time this season this weekend, as the team heads south for a three-game set with Jacksonville. The series begins on Friday, with first pitch scheduled for 6:30 p.m.

State Sen. Tarryl Clark, DFL-St. Cloud, announced today that she raised $293,953 in the fourth quarter of 2009 for her 6th district congressional campaign.
A campaign news release said the number of donors for the quarter were 2,906. Clark's total for the the year topped $600,000. She ended 2009 with just under $389,000 cash on hand.
Clark is one of two DFL candidates trying to unseat Republican Congresswoman Michele Bachmann. Bachmann has not yet released her campaign report. The other DFLer, Maureen Reed, released her numbers last week.

Incarceration is one of the most important civil rights issues of our day. With approximately 2.4 million people incarcerated, America has the highest incarceration rate in the world. The problem is especially acute in Illinois. Non-violent offenders comprise over 60% of the prison and jail population in America, and in Illinois they constitute almost 70% of inmates. In 2010, Illinois reported the largest increase of its prison population among all other states. Incarceration is also overtly racial, despite the fact that African Americans use drugs at the same rate as Whites and Latinos, African Americans represented an average of 80 percent of all persons admitted to Illinois prisons for drug offenses in the 1990s. The critical need for incarceration reform prompted the Chicago Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights to review nationwide reforms that are providing alternatives to incarceration for non-violent offenders.
The following article assesses the current landscape of incarceration reform by identifying specific reforms seeking to provide incarceration alternatives for non-violent offenders, highlighting states that have implemented comprehensive versions of these reforms, and taking a critical look at Illinois' policy towards non-violent offenders.
Implementing reforms for non-violent offenders has gained momentum recently, and such reforms have been accompanied by notable success. All 17 states that have cut their imprisonment rates also experienced a decline in crime rates. Moreover, keeping non-violent offenders out of the incarceration system saves resources and allows states to reallocate those resources for offenders who pose a threat to public safety. States have implemented reforms by widely establishing drug courts and diversion programs, updating legislation to reduce the severity level of non-violent offenses, relying on alternative sentencing options, and decriminalizing marijuana.
Although Illinois has enacted legislative changes that effect non-violent offenders, there are still important reforms it can adopt to critically impact its incarceration rate of non-violent offenders. The current trend of reforms nationwide provides useful examples for Illinois to draw upon. The Chicago Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights is alert to the need for reform, and hopes this article prompts a preliminary discussion on strategic ways to implement such reforms.

DAMN Maz, You've Lost Weight!
Mario in paper form?! I'd never heard of it until Gamecube, but apparently there was one for N64 too?? Either way, this one is mint!! It's an RPG that's waiting to be put together on your console and played with - plumber style!
So if you're curious about the title of the game and thinking, "is Mario ACTUALLY a piece of paper?" Your answer is hell yeah! And you dont chuck it aside like trash either because Mario will beat you up, equipped with both a hammer, and a sturdy pair of boots!!
The plot is, you're in a paper world! And you receive a letter from Princess Peach containing some sort of treasure map, and she says she over on some island checking the place out! It must be some sort of Princess thing - i dunno! But either way Peach is still a total numbnuts, and when you get to the island you cant find her! You meet some friends, and eventually find a professor that tells you about the map! And if you haven't guessed it already, the map has some connection with the thousand year door! And you have to find crystal stars in order to open it - and at the same time...find that ******* Princess!
So onto the fighting and shizzle! Well it's an RPG game, so fighting is done in RPG style - which means taking it in turns! When you encounter a monster the game takes you to a stage in front of an audience! You have two main weapons, a hammer and your jump ability! And you also have a sidekick depending on where you are in the story! You can choose which sidekick to have during and out of fights! It's a great system because some moves from sidekicks are needed for certain monsters, so there's a lot of tactics involved! Sidekicks involve a goombess named goombella, a kooper named koops, a fat oprah singing lady named Flurrie....and many more! You can purchase more moves, such as a triple jump, and a hammer throw etc! And also you can find update of hammers and boots...wahoo! You also have the power of the crystal stars as you collect them. These are powered by the audience (for some insane reason), and you can do insane moves to some or all your enemies! One of my favourites is to emit an earthquake on those buggery foes!
When not fighting, Maz moves around freely with the clackers of his boots on the floor! It's not a linear game at all, even though you have a general direction to go in for the story, you can go anywhere! Plus you have to backwards to places due to new moves you get. So there's many puzzles and treasures to go back for along the way! These moves are my favourite part of the game! They're all paper related! In order to get across those large gaps, you can turn into a paper aeroplane and glide down! In order to get through those small cracks in the wall, you can turn sideways so that you're paperthick in your view! And there are other moves including a paper boat on water, rolling into a ball to get underneath walls etc....and more moves also! It's so much fun to just use them because it's an awesome idea!
The graphics are really good, very clear and smooth as you can see! Probably doesnt take much power to make everything just look like paper eh! But it's a treat to look at still! And the producers are very imaginative on the level design etc! They've made all the objects paper related, can when you go onto the next screen, the paper turns much like a book! Very fun and light-humoured! I love it all!
The music is fun too! I like some of the tracks - most of them are bouncy and cheery songs, fitting to the image of the game! and if you're in a gloomy place, the music fits the atmosphere perfectly and goes all drony etc! The sounds effects are all blippy and chirpy, like every single mario game you've come across really! But in this it's like a normal mario game but tripled! every button you will press probaly causes some sort of squeaky sound to occur! Which isnt a bad thing, i personally enjoy all these little funny querks the plumber chucks at us!
SO you like plumbers right?! You like paper...we write on it, helps to pass our exams and stuff! You like a little fun, a little humour, a long and gripping RPG tale...all you need a moustached plumber with a red cap that went on one hell of a diet! Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is a great game to play! Not much wrong with this game, its a standard classy game which you will fall in love with over a short period of time! This is a fantastic game....write that down!!

Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke says that he is unsure whether or not he is still a member of the band. "I hope I haven't been fired," the singer told the NME. "I don't really know what's going on, because we haven't really spoken recently and I'm a bit too scared to ask."
According to Okereke, he recently learned that his bandmates have gone to a recording studio without inviting him to join the sessions. "I was actually having lunch about three weeks ago, just here on 8th Avenue, and I saw somebody walk past and I recognized the haircut," he said. "It was Russell. I was like, 'Hey!,' but he didn't see me and I followed him around the corner and then I saw Matt, Gordon and Russell all standing outside this rehearsal space. They all went inside."

Okereke released The Boxer, his first album as a solo artist, last year. A second solo release, an EP titled The Hunter, is due out late next month.

Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz paid a visit to Warbasse Jewish Heritage Congregation this past Sunday, December 9, to help light the menorah and ring in Hanukkah for Warbasse's first-ever Hanukkah party.
Two-hundred guests were present for the occasion at the center, which was still running on backup generators since Sandy struck late last October. The Warbasse congregation is inside the hard-hit Warbasse housing complex, which became a focal point for relief efforts after Sandy knocked out its independent generators and stranded residents as high up as 23 floors. The synagogue itself, however, was barely touched – a little holiday miracle for congregants.
Thanks to Gabrielle Shnayderman for the tip.
Correction (12/13/2012): The original version of the post indicated that the synagogue suffered extreme damage during Sandy. In fact, that was a nearby synagogue, and the Warbasse congregation only took two to three inches of water. We apologize for the confusion.

This should have been a relatively easy thing to do, but the brief period of cold air earlier this week made me change course.
The background info: my single hive has been fighting a queenless situation since Feb 24. Raised a few queens from queen cups but the virgins never returned to the hive. Had queens shipped in 3 different times from California, and only 1 queen has survived the plane ride. She arrived this past Tues (when our temps were dipping into mid 30's). Rather than risk her dying in the outside hive overnight, I pulled a couple frames of pollen/honey and the bees that were on them, and put them in my display hive inside the house. I set her plastic queen cage on the bars and watched how the bees reacted to her. Right away they were accepting of her, so I popped open the cap and released her into that small hive. Within an hour, she had laid quite a few eggs.
I'm now most anxious to get her in my outside hive and give her more comb to lay eggs on, because my hive is really dwindling at this point. Since the first group of bees from that hive were so accepting of her, can I assume that the remainder of the hive will be also? Or do I need to cage her with wire screening on a comb for a day so they get used to her? I'm very hesitant to do much manipulation with her at this point, just in case I damage her. The weather isn't supposed to get much warmer than 55 for the next few days and I don't want to do too much rearranging of the outside hive either.
I also have a package coming in this weekend and I was hoping to steal the frame of eggs she laid Tues, as they would be just hatching eggs and will hopefully anchor the package to their new hive. I also have a frame of capped drone brood, but I read somewhere that it has to be "open" brood to have the anchoring affect.

Beautiful park, great value. Highlights include the trails, fun places for the kids to explore close to the campsite. Participated in many programs and the staff was very friendly. The restrooms were heated, which was nice, and clean...but they are very basic restrooms, nothing special. We would go back.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
Not the most level sites but all things considered this is a nice campground. Good playground for kids. Nice space between sites. Nice common areas. Nice walk down to lake. We will stay here again.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
Friendly staff, nice bathrooms, great location. Wi-Fi was a little slow. Overall this was a great campground.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
Wi-Fi was basically not usable during my stay, the campground employee blamed it on a reboot caused by an intermittent power failure, this was not a big deal for me but may be a big deal to others. There is one major issue that must be considered before choosing this campground, which is the treatment of customers. I have never experienced an employee with as bad of a temper issue as I experienced at this campground and that is the reason for my low rating.

We do a few other things at Recycled Records besides sell music and movies…
We currently use an "industrial strength" CD polisher to get all of those nasty scuffs and scrapes off of your well-used CDs, DVDs and Games. We can't do miracles, but our polisher is pretty damn good. We can usually give you an idea of whether a disc is repairable. $4 per disc. No quantity deals.
Recycled carries 3'x4′ full color nylon Tapestries in all types and styles from Bob Marley to Bettie Page, with Fantasy by Royo and Victoria Frances, and your favorite rock, punk, metal, or alternative bands!
Turntables and Record Supplies
We are now selling NEW regular and USB turntables for your home stereo or computer. We offer a nice Audio Technica USB Turntable that will work with your computer or stereo system. Sometimes we get a few used turntables or record players that show up, just call to find out what we've got. We carry the famous DISCWASHER record cleaning system, which you can't even get at a Best Buy! Call us for more details. We can help you find a replacement needle for your turntable. Make sure you have the manufacture and model number (I.E. Sony abc123). We also carry replacement cartridges for most standard turntables and record supplies like paper inner and plastic outer sleeves, record mailers, even dome adapters for 45s.
More Stuff
We carry Buttons and Magnets from the twisted folks at Ephemera.
