The Seven Years' War
The Seven Years' War was a global military war between 1756 and 1763, involving most of the great powers of the time and affecting Europe, North America, Central America, the West African coast, India, and the Philippines. In some countries, the war is alternatively named after combats in the respective theatres: the French and Indian War (North America, 1754–63), Pomeranian War (Sweden and Prussia, 1757–62), Third Carnatic War (Indian subcontinent, 1757–63), and Third Silesian War (Prussia and Austria, 1756–63).
The French and Indian War (1754–1763) is the name for the North American theatre of the Seven Years' War. The war was fought primarily between the colonies of Great Britain and New France, with both sides supported by forces from Europe as well as American Indian allies. In 1756, the war erupted into a worldwide conflict between Britain and France. The primary targets of the British colonists were the royal French forces and the various American Indian forces allied with them.
Background to the War
The Ohio Country
The war was fought primarily along the frontiers separating New France from the British colonies from Virginia to Nova Scotia. The Ohio Country (sometimes called the Ohio Territory or Ohio Valley by the French) was the name used in the 18th century for the regions of North America west of the Appalachian Mountains and in the region of the upper Ohio River south of Lake Erie. The territory encompassed roughly the present-day states of Ohio, eastern Indiana, western Pennsylvania, and northwestern West Virginia. The issue of settlement in the region is considered to have been a primary cause of the French and Indian War and a later contributing factor to the American Revolutionary War.
In the 17th century, the area north of the Ohio River had been occupied by the Algonquian-speaking Shawnee. Around 1660, during a conflict known as the Beaver Wars, the Iroquois seized control of the Ohio Country, driving out the Shawnee and conquering and absorbing the Erie tribe. The Ohio Country remained largely uninhabited for decades and was used primarily for hunting by the Iroquois.
In the 1720s, a number of American Indian groups began to migrate to the Ohio Country. By 1724, Delaware Indians had established the village of Kittanning on the Allegheny River in present-day western Pennsylvania. The Delawares were migrating because of the expansion of European colonial settlement in eastern Pennsylvania. With them came those Shawnee who had settled in the east. Other bands of the scattered Shawnee tribe also began to return to the Ohio Country in the decades that followed. A number of Senecas and other Iroquois also migrated to the Ohio Country, moving away from the French and British imperial rivalries south of Lake Ontario.
Territorial Dispute
With the invasion of the Europeans, the region was claimed by Great Britain and France, both of which sent merchants into the area to trade with the Ohio Country Indians. The area was considered central to both countries' ambitions of further expansion and development in North America. At the same time, the Iroquois claimed the region by right of conquest. The rivalry between the two European nations, the Iroquois, and the Ohio natives for control of the region played an important part of the outbreak of the French and Indian War in the 1750s.
The Outbreak of War
The war began in May 1754 because of these competing claims between Britain and France. Twenty-two-year-old George Washington, a Virginian surveyor whose family helped to found the Ohio Company, gave the command to fire on French soldiers near present-day Uniontown, Pennsylvania. This incident on the Pennsylvania frontier proved to be a decisive event that led to imperial war. For the next decade, fighting took place along the frontier of New France and British America from Virginia to Maine. The war also spread to Europe as France and Britain looked to gain supremacy in the Atlantic World.
After initially remaining neutral, the Ohio Country Indians and most of the northern tribes largely sided with the French, who were their primary trading partner and supplier of arms. The British fared poorly in the first years of the war. In 1754, the French and their American Indian native allies forced Washington to surrender at Fort Necessity, a hastily built fort constructed after Washington's attack on the French. In 1755, Britain dispatched General Edward Braddock to the colonies to take Fort Duquesne. The French, aided by the Potawotomis, Ottawas, Shawnees, and Delawares, ambushed the 1,500 British soldiers and Virginia militia who marched to the fort. The attack sent panic through the British force, and hundreds of British soldiers and militiamen died, including General Braddock. The campaign of 1755 proved to be a disaster for the British. In fact, the only British victory that year was the capture of Nova Scotia. In 1756 and 1757, Britain suffered further defeats with the fall of Fort Oswego and Fort William Henry.
The war began to turn in favor of the British in 1758, due in large part to the efforts of William Pitt, a very popular member of Parliament. Pitt pledged huge sums of money and resources to defeating the hated Catholic French, and Great Britain spent part of the money on bounties paid to new young recruits in the colonies, helping invigorate the British forces. In 1758, the Iroquois, Delaware, and Shawnee signed the Treaty of Easton, aligning themselves with the British in return for some contested land around Pennsylvania and Virginia. Between 1758 and 1760, the British military successfully penetrated the heartland of New France, with Quebec falling in 1759 and Montreal finally falling in September 1760. The French empire in North America began to crumble.
Conference between the French and American Indian leaders around a ceremonial fire by Vernier
This is a scene from the French and Indian War (1754–1763), depicting the alliance of French and American Indian forces.
Treaty of Paris
Most of the fighting between France and Britain in continental North America ended in 1760; however, the fighting in Europe continued. The war in North America officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Paris on February 10, 1763, and war in the European theatre of the Seven Years' War was settled by the Treaty of Hubertusburg on February 15, 1763. France ceded French Louisiana west of the Mississippi River to its ally Spain, in compensation for Spain's loss of Florida to Britain (which Spain had given to Britain in exchange for the return of Havana, Cuba). France's colonial presence north of the Caribbean was reduced to the islands of Saint Pierre and Miquelon, confirming Britain's position as the dominant colonial power in the eastern half of North America.
Britain gained control of French Canada and Acadia, colonies containing approximately 80,000 primarily French-speaking Roman Catholic residents. The British resettled many Acadians throughout its North American provinces, but many went to France, and some went to New Orleans, which they had expected to remain French.
Following the peace treaty, King George III issued the Royal Proclamation of 1763 outlining the division and administration of the newly conquered territory. To some extent, this proclamation continues to govern relations between the government of modern Canada and the First Nations. In his proclamation, George III placed Ohio Country in the vast Indian Reserve stretching from the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi River and from Florida to Newfoundland. Existing European settlers (mostly French) were ordered to leave or get special permission to stay. Despite its acquisition by Great Britain, the area remained officially closed to white settlement—at least for the time being—by the Proclamation of 1763, which arose from the British desire to regain peaceful relations with the Shawnee and other tribes in the region.
A New Dynamic
For France, the military defeat and the financial burden of the war weakened the monarchy and contributed to the advent of the French Revolution in 1789. For many American Indian populations, the elimination of French power in North America meant the disappearance of a strong ally and counterweight to British expansion, which over the following decades would lead to their ultimate dispossession. Although the Spanish takeover of the Louisiana territory (which was not completed until 1769) had only modest repercussions, the British takeover of Spanish Florida resulted in the westward migration of tribes that did not want to do business with the British and a rise in tensions between the Choctaw and the Creek, historic enemies whose divisions the British at times exploited. The change of control in Florida also prompted most of its Spanish Catholic population to leave.

Yeah I started reading a lot of these but sadly never finished any of them. Near Death was the best of the lot I think but I did not finish it. Curse of the Vampire's cover is cool or it appeals to me. because they are bats and people cool.

For my money, the three best vampire novels of the '80s were Ray Garton's "Live Girls", Nancy Collins' "Sunglasses After Dark" and S.P. Somtow's "Vampire Junction". Most of the books shown above had their moments, but very few of them.

Not only were the covers generic but the titles as well. Curse of the Vampire, Kiss of the Vampire, etc.. Really?? And also Unquenchable and Insatiable are pretty much interchangeable.

The only one of the batch I've read is THE LAST VAMPIRE, but it's been too long to recall any of it. Many of those covers look familiar from my bookbrowsing adventures, but I've never been much of a vampire fan, so didn't pick any of the others up. That said, John mentions above Garton and Collins, and I did read all their vampire output back in the day...also read the Somtow novel, but not much else by him.

Expert View: Standardisation through automation
29 February 2016 • Author(s): SOTAX Group
As Symonds and Elder mentioned in their article, 'Dissolution Testing in the Modern World', there are several sources of variability in the "inherently poor design" of compendial dissolution apparatus types. Nevertheless, dissolution testing is a QC requirement for many products, and so the industry faces the challenge of implementing and managing fleets of dissolution equipment. However, through instrument and process design and automation, managing the products, equipment, and personnel associated with routine QC testing can be streamlined.
It is abundantly clear to those experienced in routine QC dissolution testing that the assembly of the apparatus, checks to assure proper assembly, execution of the test including manual sampling, and cleaning after the run completion, all introduce opportunities for variability to arise. When moving from manual to semi- and fully automated systems, at each step automation has been and continues to be a way to reduce some of these inherent sources of variability.
Automation of instrument qualification
First, consider the assembly and the checking of the dissolution system post assembly, to assure that the assembly was properly executed. For years, there have been both compendial and regulatory recommendations on how to best accomplish this task, and what the acceptance criteria should be for each parameter. Both mechanical and chemical tests have been used over the years and the relative merits of each have been argued exhaustively. The debate has gone on for several years and the current state of affairs is a mismatch between compendial and regulatory agency recommendations.

Know Your Flours and Their Alter Egos
Using alternative flours can be very confusing and scary. We live in a world full of prepackaged box mixes for pancakes, cakes, and muffins — when we were faced with using alternative flours and ingredients, we were thrown for a loop! What can be used in place of bleached, enriched flour made from wheat for a birthday cake? After the initial panic died down, we realized that there are many flours made from grains and seeds that are just as easy to use as wheat, but the slightly different qualities (such as lower or absent gluten content) made finding the right proportions difficult. We explored many helpful resources, such as the University of Wisconsin's and University of Illinois's Extension Offices, diet books, and health food stores' employees, but in the long run the best teacher was experience. The charts in this chapter provide general information about using and combining these flours. However, certain flours work better than others when preparing a variety of baked goods. For your convenience, we have provided specific combination charts listing flours that work best for each category of baked goods that appear in this book. In each recipe's list of ingredients, we have put the ingredient which works best first, for example, oat flour or spelt flour or amaranth flour. This means we have achieved the tastiest results with oat flour, but have also been successful using the other flours. If there is only one ingredient listed in a line, this means we have not found (or do not need) any alternatives.
If you are dealing with a gluten allergy or intolerance, a yeast allergy, or celiac disease, there are a wide variety of resources available. We were fortunate in not having to deal with that severe medical problem, and our hearts are with you. There are some gluten-free recipes scattered throughout, such as Orange Snaps and Coconut Pancakes. Several resources are listed in chapter 13, such as www.landolakes.com for our favorite gluten-free flour mixture, which is suitable for substitution in many of your favorite recipes.
Gluten is the elastic component in many grains that reacts with liquids and yeast in the unbaked dough, expanding and forming a network of tiny expandable pockets that trap the carbon dioxide created during the leavening process, thus making the dough rise. Because wheat gluten is the stickiest and most elastic of all grain glutens, it sets the standard for ease of preparation and rising in breads and other baked goods.
Yeast is a fungus that produces the carbon dioxide during fermentation. It continually reproduces itself, feeding off gluten and sugars.
Gluten and yeast, singly or together, give the baked products their lighter texture and weight. Nongluten flours do not feed yeast at all; therefore rising must be forced by either adding a gluten flour to the nongluten flour in the recipe or by using a lot more of a different leavening agent, such as baking powder or baking soda, with an acidic ingredient.
Wheat and corn flour are used in many products under many different names. When a label indicates that modified food starch or a thickening agent has been used, you may assume that wheat or corn in some form has been added. Surprisingly, even some candies, such as licorice, use wheat flour as a thickener and stiffener. Other ingredient and trademark names that include wheat are: bran, bread crumbs, bulgur or burghol, couscous, cracker meal, durum, farina, many forms of "filler," gluten, graham, HVP (hydrolyzed vegetable protein), kamut, many types of modified food starch, MSG, orzo, pumpernickel, seitan, semolina, tabouleh, teff, some varieties of tempeh, wheat germ, some forms of yeast, Accent, and Postum. Corn and its other names are discussed in chapter 3. Family names are listed in the appendices.
Following are two lists of flours, gluten and nongluten. Almost all of our recipes require some gluten in order to obtain a well-baked and tasty dessert. Generally, you will get a better product using mostly gluten flours. If you are dealing with a gluten allergy or intolerance or celiac disease, the nongluten flour mixture from Land o' Lakes (see page 171) combined with guar gum is a wonderful substitute for gluten flours.
This list is of flours we use in baked goods. There is a variety of research regarding the gluten content of some of these flours. See our Resources chapter (page 169) for more information on how to find the right products for your home.
Made from the ground grains of the amaranth plant, it is in the Amaranth family (some Amaranth species do not produce edible seeds or grain). It ranges from an off-white to near-black color and has a bland flavor. It works well used as a coating and for baking, and the cooked whole grains may be used in salads. Other varieties of this family are grown for the green leaves, which may be cooked and eaten like spinach and are commonly known as pigweed. The flour is high in protein, calcium, fiber, and B vitamins.
Made from the ground grain of barley plants, it is in the Grass family. It is commonly used in the manufacture of malt. It has a white color and a mild flavor; it does not work well as a coating or for thickening gravies and sauces. It works well for baking, especially when mixed with a flour that bakes a heavier or denser product, such as rye or buckwheat.
Buckwheat (dark)
Made from the ground grain of the buckwheat plant. In spite of its name, it is not related to the Grass family, but belongs to the Buckwheat family, which includes rhubarb and sorrel. It has a medium brown color and a strong nutty flavor. It works well for a dark crispy coating, and when mixed with other flours it will give a solid texture to baked goods. It is not good for thickening sauces and gravies or for making a roux.
Buckwheat (light)
Made from the unroasted ground grain of the buckwheat plant. It belongs to the same family as the dark buckwheat and differs only in the preparation of the flour. The flavor can vary from mild to strong, and it has a light brown color. It is good for baking and for use as a coating, producing a medium-weight, dry product, but it is not good for thickening sauces and gravies or for making a roux.
Chickpea/Garbanzo Bean
Made from the dried, ground seeds of the chickpea plant, it is in the Bean family. It has a pale yellow color and a mild flavor. It is only fair for coating, but is excellent for thickening sauces and gravies. It can be used for baked goods but only when it is one quarter or less of the total flour used (e.g., ¼ cup chickpea flour with ¾ cup other flours).
Made from ground grain of the kamut plant, it is a Triticum in the Grass family. Kamut is the Egyptian word for wheat; it is an ancient, nonhybridized form of wheat. It has an off-white color and a mild flavor. It is good when used for coating, but not for thickening sauces and gravies or for making a roux. It works very well for baking.
Made from the ground grain of the pearl millet plant, it is in the Grass family. It has an off-white color and a very mild flavor. It works for coating, although not as well as some other flours, and does not work well for thickening sauces and gravies or for making a roux. It is very good for baking, especially when mixed with other, more glutinous flours.
Made from the ground kernels of the oat plant, it is in the Grass family. It has an off-white to gray color and a mild flavor. It is very good for coating, for thickening sauces and gravies, and for making a roux. It is also excellent for baking, especially when mixed at a 3:1 ratio with another flour such as arrowroot or potato (e.g., ¾ cup oat flour with ¼ cup potato flour). *Note: rolled oats (heated and flattened kernels) are gluten-free.
Made from the cooked, dried, and ground tuber, it is in the Potato family. It has a white color and no flavor. Potato flour is not recommended for coating, but is very good for thickening sauces and gravies. In baking, it works best when mixed with another flour and can be used for up to half of the total flour used. Note that potato flour and potato starch are different and react in different ways when used. Do not substitute one for the other.
Made from the roasted, ground seeds of the quinoa plant, it is in the Goosefoot family. It has an ivory color and a bland flavor in very small amounts. The flavor and aroma are much stronger and yeasty when used as half or more of the total flour used. It does not work well for coating, thickening sauces and gravies, or for making a roux. It works extremely well for muffins or loaf cakes, especially when mixed with another gluten flour.
Made from the roasted, ground grain of the rye plant, it is in the Grass family. It has a very dark brown color and a strong, almost yeasty flavor. It works well as a coating but has too strong a flavor to use as a thickener for sauces and gravies or for making a roux. It works extremely well for breads and some cakes, such as carrot or zucchini, but not as well for cookies or more delicate baked goods.
Made from ground grain of the spelt plant, it is in the nonhybridized Grass family. It has an ivory to white color and a bland taste. It works extremely well for baking but not as well for thickening or coating.
Made from the ground grain of the teff plant, it is a Triticum in the Grass family closely related to wheat. It has a medium to dark color, a coarse texture, and a mild flavor. It works well for baking but not as well for coating, for thickening sauces and gravies, or for making a roux.
Made from the dried, ground West Indian arrowroot tuber, it is in the Marantaceae family. It has a snow-white color and no flavor. It can be used for a crispy, quick-cooking coating and works very well as a thickening agent. Small amounts may also be added to gluten flours for baking. In catalogs or on packaging, it may be called "flour," "powder," or "starch"; we have found no discernible differences, and in this book we call it arrowroot flour.
Coconut Flour
Made from fresh coconut meat that is dried and ground into a powder, it is in the Palm family. It has a snow-white color and a mild, slightly sweet flavor. It is good for baking. Because it is a nongluten flour, we recommend using additional leavening agents such as adding 1½ teaspoons Ener-G Egg Replacer powder mixed with 2 tablespoons water for each ounce of coconut flour used. It makes light, delicious pancakes and baked goods with a hint of coconut flavor.
Made from the dried, ground kernels of rice plants, it is in the Grass family. Flours milled from brown and from refined white rice are available; the colors range from white to light brown, and all have a mild flavor. It is not good for coating unless you are preparing tempura batter. It works best in baked goods when mixed with other flours and will impart a light, silky texture to the product.
Made from the roasted, dried, ground soybean, it is in the Bean family. It works well when used for coating, but not for thickening. It is good for baking used at a 1:3 ratio (e.g., ¼ cup soy flour with ¾ cup other flours). Make sure the flour you purchase has been made from already-roasted soybeans. Because soy has a higher oil content than other flours, you may wish to reduce the margarine/oil called for in a recipe by 1 teaspoon for each ¼ cup soy flour used. It will give a silky, almost puddinglike texture to your baked goods. Soy has also been determined to be a common allergen, so daily use is not recommended.
Made from the cooked, ground cassava root, it is from the Spurge family. Depending on the recipe, it may be helpful to dissolve the tapioca pearls in hot or cold water before using; see container for helpful hints. There are a variety of tapiocas available; small pearled quick-cooking tapioca was used in creating these recipes. Use 4 teaspoons tapioca for each 1 tablespoon cornstarch used in recipe.
The more "sticky" a flour is, the more likely it is to behave like a gluten flour. Based on our experience and from information gleaned from many sources, we have developed the following list of flours and how they behave during the baking process.
The following charts describe general rules for substituting alternative flours for each 1 cup of bleached, enriched flour made from wheat, or 1 cup of whole wheat flour.
¼ cup amaranth flour and ¾ cup oat flour
1 cup to 1 ¼ cups rye flour
¼ to ½ cup buckwheat flour and ½ cup amaranth flour
5/8 to 1 cup potato flour
1 cup oat flour
½ to 2/3 cup barley flour and ½ cup oat flour
½ cup potato flour and ½ cup rye flour
5/8 cup rice flour and 1/3 cup rye flour
1 cup soy flour plus ¾ cup potato starch
These proportions may not look like they would work, but due to the different families, classes, and characteristics of these grains, they do. Please note that all the alternative flours react differently with each other; you may want to experiment to find the best combinations for your own cooking and baking needs.
One helpful hint is to add a little more leavening (such as baking powder, baking soda, egg yolk, or egg substitute) if a coarser flour rather than a finer flour is used. A good rule of thumb is 2 ½ teaspoons of additional baking powder or an equivalent substitute for each 1 cup of coarse flour used.
Another suggestion is to let the batter or dough sit for a few minutes after all ingredients have been thoroughly mixed to allow the alternative flours to absorb any liquids; this helps the flours expand and rise a little better when baking.
As you become more proficient in mixing your favorite recipes and using your favorite flours you will develop a feel for when your dough is the right consistency for a well-baked product.
Appendix I lists the scientific and family names for the grains and flours referred to in this cookbook. Appendix II describes the different food families. A food family is a botanical classification of foods that are related first by the flower structure and second by genetic structure. A person with an allergy to one member of a specific food family may also be allergic to other foods in the same family. If your child is allergic to one food in a particular family, check with your doctor before using other members of that food family.
Following are more detailed charts that correspond to the recipe chapters for specific substitutions and combinations of alternative flours that we have discovered work best for cookies, cakes, fruit desserts, and crusts.
CAKE AND CUPCAKE FLOUR CHART (part 1)
These are suggested combinations of flours that work well for light tasting and less dense cakes. All combinations are for 1 cup.
NO means the flour alone or that combination of flours is not appropriate for a good cake.
OK means the flour may be used by itself and does not require another flour in addition to it.
ANY COMB. means any ratio of the two flours that adds up to 1 cup will make a good cake.
CAKE AND CUPCAKE FLOUR CHART (part 2)
These are suggested combinations of flours that work well for light tasting and less dense cakes. All combinations are for 1 cup.
NO means the flour alone or that combination of flours is not appropriate for a good cake.
OK means the flour may be used by itself and does not require another flour in addition to it.

Loaded: The Best of Blake Sheltonby Blake Shelton
Loaded: The Best of Blake Shelton, is a solid collection of the country singer's singles, hits, and favorites from his five studio full-lengths, and the two six-track EPs he released in the latter year. Fifteen tracks deep, it begins with the two cuts that put him on contemporary country's radar -- "Ol Red" and "Austin" -- from his self-titled debut album in 2001. The Dreamer, from 2003, is represented by the its two best cuts, "The Baby," and the classic "Playboys of the Southwestern World." There are three from 2004's Blake Shelton's Bar & Grill, including Shawn Camp's stellar "Nobody But Me," and Shelton's reading of the Conway Twitty smash "Goodbye Time." Pure BS, from 2007, is showcased by a pair of numbers, including "The More I Drink" and a third, "Home," comes from the deluxe edition of album. There's a solid version of "She Wouldn't Be Gone" from 2008's Startin' Fires to round things out. The first 11 tracks were a given, and Shelton's annotations in the booklet make a solid case for their inclusion. That said, Shelton also tacks on the title track from the Hillbilly Bone, "Six Pack," as well as "Kiss My Country Ass" from the same set. Further, "Who Are You When I'm Not Looking" and the title track from the second EP are here. All four of these songs were released earlier in the calendar year, making their appearances seem redundant at best and, frankly, like a cynical money grab at worst. Oftentimes, less really is more.

I confess...first country album I have ever owned. Bought it because I dug his music watching him perform on The Voice. Already played it through five times and not even near tired yet. The songs make me laugh (Some Beach), cry (The Baby), and just about everything in between. Am totally crushing on Blake now (don't tell my hubby!) lol I admit it...no longer a country virgin. Am researching when he comes to my neighborhood, am dying to see him perform these songs live. Best ever! Lady

Engine woes, bad pit strategy and on track incidents were the death for several of the Chase racers this weekend at Dover International Speedway. Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick both suffered engine failures; Kasey Kahne got tangled with reigning Champ Tony Stewart and Matt Kenseth ran out of gas on the last lap.
When all was said and done after 400 laps at the Monster Mile, race winner Jeff Burton took a hold of the points lead by six points.
1. Jeff Burton (Race Winner, 5,351 points): Burton ended his winless streak of 175 races after a fierce battle with Matt Kenseth was won by the No. 31 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet. The win puts Burton into the point lead by six markers with eight races left in the Chase.
"We have positioned ourselves to have something special happen, but just because we're in this position doesn't mean something special is going to happen," said Burton. "Eight races is an eternity."
2. Jeff Gordon (Finished 3rd, -6): Four-time Cup series champion Gordon moves to second in points after a third place result at Dover. He led just one lap and started the race from the pole.
"It got kind of crazy out there with guys getting in and out of sync and then running out of fuel. So we're pretty fortunate to come home third," Gordon said. "That's what it takes to be up there in this Chase and running for this championship. Kenseth had the car to beat and (Burton) was tough there in the end as well. We've still got a little bit more work to do, but we've got some really good tracks coming up."
3. Matt Kenseth (Finished 10th, -18): Kenseth led a race high 215-laps but was forced to limp to the finish after running out of gas on the last lap. Kenseth remains third in points.
"We had a good car," explained Kenseth. "We had older tires than everybody for some reason and that last set didn't like my car as much. We had a couple problems with the car. I messed up in the pit box and I was pretty pumped up that we were able to come back and pass the whole field for the lead. I just don't understand what we did there at the end. We gambled for fuel, but there was really no reason to gamble because we had the best car. Even if we would have lost two or three spots, we had the car to beat so I don't understand how we can run out of fuel on the last lap."
4. Denny Hamlin (Finished 9th, -18): Denny Hamlin had a good car for Sunday's event at Dover but ailing health may have cost him a better finish. Hamlin, who is battling a cold, began feeling bad with a 150-laps to go. He slips to fourth in points, tied with Kenseth.
"With about 150 to go I lost all my neck strength and it went downhill from there. I just couldn't take anymore," commented Hamlin.
5. Kevin Harvick (Finished 32nd, -54): A blown engine ruined Harvick's day and slips him from first to fifth in points.
"You know these guys have done a great job to give me engines all season," he said. "It's the first one we've lost in a long time. We'll be fine. We blew up a little bit early," Harvick said. "These guys have done a great job getting the engines where they need to be [and this was the] first failure we have had in a long time. We will be fine [and] just keep racing."
6. Mark Martin (Finished 14th, -75): Martin got caught on pit road when a caution came out during a round of green flag pit stops. That put Martin a lap down and relegated him to a 14th place finish.
"We were a touch off, so when it happened we were not able to recover," Martin explained. "It would have taken us longer to recover than it would have if we had been just a little quicker. We were just a whisker off and we were gonna get away with that until we got a lap down on that pit sequence. That's two races where we ran better than we finished, but we haven't had a disastrous finish. If we can go to Talladega and not wreck, we'd make all of that back up."
7. Dale Earnhardt, Jr. (Finished 21st, -102): Earnhardt had two blows at Dover that cost him making any ground in the Chase. He had a flat tire early in the race, and then he got caught a lap down after pitting under green and having the caution come out.
"We struggled a little bit," said Earnhardt. "We're lucky we finished 21st today. We had a flat tire and we made some real poor pit calls. Hopefully we'll do better in the next several weeks. We've been lucky to be only 100-some (points) behind, that's pretty fortunate right now."
8. Jimmie Johnson (Finished 13th, -136): Johnson wound up 13th on pure effort after getting off sequence in the pits. Johnson also got caught on pit road when a caution came out and had to work his way back to grab a top- 15 finish. He did make some ground after a disastrous start to the Chase moving up one spot.
"We just had an off day," Johnson described. "I mean, we had a good car. We just kept losing track position for a variety of different reasons. Unfortunately we had to pit out of sequence and got down a lap. We had a good car. I think track position was really important here. When we had track position, we would run up front and be strong. We had some problem in the pits and got caught behind, then had to stay out then stop on a green flag stop and the caution came out. That really got us behind, but the guys did a great job, worked really hard today, gave us a great race car. We just got out of sequence and it bit us. I hate it for us. It would have been a good day to capitalize on some things. We didn't lose a lot. But we missed a chance to gain some points."
9. Kasey Kahne (Finished 38th, -182): Kahne got tangled with Tony Stewart on lap 11 ending his chances of winning a championship this year. He spent 140 laps in the garage, finishing 38th and dropping to ninth in points.
"No more championship," said a deflated Kahne.
10. Kyle Busch (Finished 40th, -224): Kyle Busch's first Chase can be wrapped up by one sentence, "That's it we're done". Busch suffered an engine failure finishing 40th and dropping 224 points behind leader Burton after a 40 place result and his second mulligan of the Chase.
"In the motor somewhere," Busch explained. "It is really a shame. Obviously the car was running really strong today. We were one of the best cars out there, we drove from about 20th up to third there that one run and we were catching the leaders every lap. It is just a shame. The Hendrick Motorsports engine department has always been very, very strong. They have always had great horsepower. Today we must have a problem in the top-end. Nothing came out the bottom. We must have broke a valve."

I'm currently seeing a Physiotherapist for my shin splints but not really getting anywhere- I've heard that Osteopaths are better than Physio's and they do also cover sports injuries (I thought they were just for bad backs!). Has anybody got any opinions on this?
Blackdonkey, you've damaged your shins. The only thing you can do is wait and avoid doing anything that causes anymore damage. This is nature. You can't download an instant solution like an app on a fucking phone.
Yes but massage will help loosen the tight muscles and relieve the damaged tissue. An osteopath may also be able to find an underlying cause and help to prevent it happening again. I would go to the Osteopath as they are better at looking at the bigger picture. Good luck.
Either might be able to help, or even combine a treatment plan. I've been treated by both a physio and an osteopath, and they both helped me at the time. A good physio will look at the bigger picture as much as a good osteopath. With both disciplines you do need to find someone who is used to treating runners, and comes recommended.
Thanks for the feedback! Need to go and chat for a bit of a 'plan' for the next few weeks/months... rest is imperative now but knowing when to start stretching/strengthening and having some sort of timescale for how long I have to rest for would be useful!
My old club used to have an osteopath who did running injury treatment and was also a top class runner himself which helps put faith in him. He was brilliant. Currently though I'm just across the road from a runners injury clinic and there I see a physio but again he is a good level club runner so I'm more inclined to listen to him. For example when I had a bad groin injury a couple of years ago he told me to stop running altogether for a while even though he normally tries to to keep people going so I took his advice and he was right!
I would recommend both - together they appear to have fixed me!
Sorry to hijack but can anyone reccommend a good physio/osteopath in the Norwich area? I saw a guy earlier in the year at the Global Clinic in Colney but wasn't majorly impressed. His communication was poor, and he didn't seem very knowledgeable about running specific problems.

By Janet Kornblum, USA TODAY
SAN FRANCISCO Lauren Patton was still in shock Thursday four hours after her neighbor woke her up, unable to withhold the news any longer: The California Supreme Court made its historic decision, and same-sex marriage was legal.
"I almost can't believe it," said Patton, 24, as friends walked up to hug her in victory as she parked her bicycle in front of a Starbucks coffee shop. "I immediately called my girlfriend to tell her. I'm totally happy. Ecstatic. I've been texting all my friends."
Many of those in the Castro neighborhood — the heart of the gay community in perhaps the most gay-friendly city in the country — raised celebratory glasses of iced coffee, champagne and beer on this unseasonably hot day as word spread. They prepared for what promised to be a night — even a weekend — of celebration.
The mood was tempered by the realization that a November ballot initiative could undercut the ruling. And gay marriage is still not permitted in all other states except Massachusetts.
Still, many gay — and straight people — savored a major victory in a battle that began in February 2004 when San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom made gay marriage legal. For a month, couples lined up, often waiting hours for their chance to be married. The California Supreme Court then temporarily halted the same-sex marriages while the merits of the case were tested.
"I think it's wonderful," said Phyllis Lyon, a plaintiff in the case and the first to be married Feb. 12, 2004, to her partner of now 55 years, Del Lyon.
"People can start getting hitched in just 30 days," said Nathan Ballard, spokesman for the mayor's office.
When the decision was announced, cheers erupted outside the courthouse. Drivers honked and smiled. A lone protester was practically ignored.
Ending bias
The California Supreme Court ruled 4-3 that the state constitution gives same-sex couples the right to marry as heterosexual couples. The decision, written by Chief Justice Ronald George, spoke about the benefits of marriage to families, yet also referred to the importance of ending bias against groups that historically faced discrimination.
George invoked a 1948 California court decision that struck down a restriction on interracial marriage nearly two decades before the Supreme Court declared such prohibitions unconstitutional nationwide.
The state court noted that California in recent years had passed comprehensive domestic-partnership laws giving same-sex couples the same legal benefits as married couples. The court said giving same-sex couples merely "domestic partnership" status could relegate them to "second-class citizens."
Dissenting judges said voters or elected lawmakers should decide the scope of same-sex relations: "If there is to be a further sea change in the social and legal understanding of marriage itself, that evolution should occur by … democratic means," Justice Marvin Baxter wrote.
Mayor says more will follow
At a news conference at noon at City Hall, a crowd erupted in cheers to speeches delivered by City Attorney Dennis Herrera and Newsom.
"What a day in San Francisco," Newsom said. "What a day in California. What a day for America. What a day for equality. This is an extraordinary moment and an extraordinary time.
"It's about human dignity. It's about civil rights. It's about time," he said. "And by the way, as California goes, so goes the rest of the nation."
Opponents of same-sex marriage were outraged by the court's decision.
Randy Thomasson, president of the California-based Campaign for Children and Families, said, "This extremely bad ruling will certainly spur Californians to vote in November to overrule the judges and protect marriage licenses for a man and a woman in the California Constitution."
Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, a conservative group that opposes gay marriage, described the California decision as even worse than the Massachusetts decision in 2003 allowing gay marriage. "This is a judicial shotgun marriage, this is what it is," Perkins says. "It forces the people of California to support same-sex marriage."
Damon Molder, 40, was among those celebrating. Molder, an office manager from Fairfax, north of San Francisco, said there will be a wild celebration — but not yet.
"It really needs to be federally recognized," Molder said. "Once that happens, you'll see dancing in the streets."

Energy shares power TSX to higher close
By Frank Pingue
TORONTO (Reuters) - Toronto's main stock index closed more than 1 percent higher on Tuesday as a rally in oil prices lit a fire under energy shares and left the index just shy of its highest level in nearly a year.
The gain in the index's energy sector was powered by Canadian Natural Resources, which rose 3.7 percent to C$76.64, followed by shares of Suncor Energy, up 2 percent at C$39.40.
"It's really sort of the commodity story combined a little with the fact that markets worldwide are better," said Levente Mady, market strategist at Union Securities in Vancouver.
"And while you can certainly say things are overbought at this point, until you see kind of a change in character in the market it's difficult to fight city hall."
The S&P/TSX composite index ended up 161.12 points, or 1.41 percent, at 11,585.73. That was just 28 points shy of topping the 11-month high it reached last week.
Seven of the 10 TSX sectors ended higher, with industrials, information technology and healthcare the only sectors ending in lower territory.
The TSX shrugged off data that showed Canadian retail sales unexpectedly fell 0.6 percent in July from June after two months of robust gains.
The index's materials sector, home to gold-mining shares, was also a key driver of the market's gain as gold prices rose to within striking distance of a recent 18-month high. Continued...

Condo is just off of Academy (the main street in Colorado Springs). It was easy to find and the owners are very clear on expectations. Just followed their instructions and everything was great. Loved the condo - very clean and stocked well. We visit Co Springs often and will be back!
The owners, Craig and Nicolette are great and very responsive. They made sure that everything was in place before we arrived. The place is absolutely nice and well equipped. It is so clean and bright, that I would recommend it to anyone visiting Colorado Springs. Plus the location is convenient and near to grocery stores and restaurants. We would definitely stay here if we visit Colorado Springs again.
We stayed at the condo for all of the Fall 2016 holidays, for 2.5 months. It was ideal for our little family of four! The condo is exactly as pictured, and even better equipped. There is every tool, utensil and gadget you would need, which was huge for us since we made this our home for a quarter of the year. The condo is setup with the highest Xfinity package, that we may have to upgrade to ourselves because it really spoils you, especially the high-speed internet. The condo is a good size, with 3 upstairs bedrooms, 2.5 baths, full laundry room, and 2-car garage. We even had the space to put up a good-size Christmas tree in the living room. All rooms and linens were very cleaned and well kept, and the home is decorated making it feel very cozy and welcoming. The courtyard off the front is just the right size for 2 toddlers to enjoy some play in the snow, and allowed us to meet a few of the friendly neighbors. It is a quiet town home community located on the safe, North side of Colorado Springs and is close to good food, new shops and the Academy. We really enjoyed our time at the condo and wish it didn't have to end so soon. It was truly a home away from home for us. Thank you Craig & Nicolette for having us! You were both so friendly, accommodating, and quick to respond. We look forward to staying again!
We have stayed in Craig & Nicolette's condo for the last 3 years for at least 1 month at a time. The location of their condo is excellent!! It is close to restaurants, gas stations, grocery stores & the freeway. It is in a very, very safe neighborhood.
Craig & Nicolette are wonderful to work with & will immediately get back with you on any questions you may have. Thank you for letting us stay in your warm & accommodating condo. As long as our family is here, we hope to be back again.
I wish I could give 4 1/2 stars. :) We stayed at this house for USAFA Parent's Weekend. The location is very close t the academy. The house is very clean and the kitchen is well stocked. :) There are also enough towels, sheets, and covers. :)
Our only complaint is that the bed in the master bedroom was not very comfortable and made noise whenever one of us would roll over in the middle of the night....thus waking the other up. :) We solved that problem by putting our son in that room. :) Problem solved.
I definitely recommend this property and will probably stay there again. :)
We just had a wonderful weekend in Colorado Springs and one reason is the home we rented from Craig and Nicolette. There was so much room and everything was so clean and comfortable. The beds, pillows and towels were all soft and clean. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could want or need. Our friends rented the basement apartment and we all enjoyed our stay. Craig and Nicolette were so prompt at answering our emails and texts. I would recommend this place to our family and friends! A wonderful home in the Rockies!

If you haven't seen Jon Stewart's hilarious Wednesday night report on the aftermath of the Norway massacre, you're only hurting yourself. He brilliantly skewers the protests of Fox News and the right over the bigotry of the media's identifying the accused shooter as a "Christian extremist." There are numerous layers of hypocrisy to peel away, and each one is funnier than the last: It's bigoted to call Breivik a Christian just because he calls himself one, but the Fort Hood shooter is definitely a Muslim terrorist because he called himself one. Christians in this country are the victims of relentless bigotry by the left, but anyone else who complains of bigotry is playing the victim card. Et cetera and so forth.

Men and women become single parents in a variety of
ways. The one thing that remains true, regardless of how you found
yourself parenting solo, is that you need a tribe. Some even call
it a village. These people may be relatives, friends you made in
college, or other parents you met during an after school activity.
The key to any successful single parent family is having a strong
support network, to not only help you manage the chaos of Saturday
morning soccer games, but also lend an ear when you've had a
stressful day at work. As a single mom, I've found my tribe
invaluable and want to share some tips to others solo parents who
need to start gathering their tribe.
So who should be in your tribe?
The other parent
I know there are instances where the other parent
is deceased or uninterested in being a parent so this can be
difficult. However, if you have an engaged co-parent it would be a
good idea to have a chat with him or her about your tribe. If
your co-parent may be called upon to babysit or chaperone your
child to activities, make sure they are kept in the
Family & friends
You have your biological family and the family you
pick up along the way, also known as friends. When I need someone
to do a pickup, drop off or just give me a few moments to breathe,
they are there. I'm lucky that my son has amazing
grandparents who are available when I need a night out or have to
stay late at work. Grandparents Day has taken on a new meaning in
my family! I also have great friends who enjoy spending time with
my son (that helps!) and have come through during crunch
I decided when my son was born that he would only
go to a home daycare. I wanted him to be in a home atmosphere since
he would be away from me for 10 hours a day. I also like that many
home daycares are licensed for 24 hour care. That way if I was
running late, I didn't have to worry about being charged a fee.
Obviously this is not a green light to abuse a home daycare.
Another important piece of this puzzle is finding good sitters. I
have to respect that my family and friends have lives and aren't
always going to be available. Luckily I've always been able to find
college students who have been great sitters for my son. There have
been times where I didn't have anywhere to go but just wanted
someone to play with my son while I took a nap or went for a
Classroom parents
Now that my son is in school, I have learned the
great joy of connecting with the parents of his classmates. Not
only does my son get to build friendships with his classmates, but
I also get to gain new friends.
Single parent friends
Find them. They are out there. There is nothing
like having a friend who is also a single parent who understands
your "why me?!" moments. There are MeetUp groups for single
parents. The one in my area plans events - both kid friendly and
grown-ups only - a couple of times a month.
It's important to me that I let my tribe know how
much I value them. I don't use them as a rotating door of
childcare. Raising my son is my responsibility, not theirs.
However, as a single mom, I recognize the value of letting my
son know that while he is being raised by one parent, he is also
surrounded by people who love and care for him. My tribe is also a
way of taking care of myself. As a single parent it's easy to
put your child first and self-care last. Surrounding yourself
with good people only helps make you a better parent and
