|Tampa Bay Derby
|1 1/16 miles
|Coolmore Lexington GII
|1 1/16 miles
Strengths: Finished only a little more than two lengths behind Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver in the Tampa Bay Derby after a troubled trip. He comes into this off the best performance of his career, rallying from well off the pace in the Lexington Stakes to finish a gaining third to Exhi, who has since won another stakes, his third in a row. Makes his first start for a trainer who is very good at bringing horses into big spots off freshenings, and the positional speed he showed in the Tampa Bay Derby suggests he could be prominent early here, with a moderate to slow pace expected.
Weaknesses: His big effort in the Lexington came on Keeneland's Polytrack, and it's difficult to predict how that form will transfer to dirt in the Belmont Stakes. He has yet to even start in a Grade 1 race and is 0 for 3 in races around two turns, while 2 for 2 in sprint races. That, and his miler's pedigree, suggests that the 1 1/2-mile distance of the Belmont could be well beyond his reach.
Strategy: Despite the fact that he came from next to last in a field of 12 in the Lexington to be third, it would be a surprise, given the scarcity of speed in this event, if he wasn't a prominent early factor here. He might even lay as close as third in the early stages behind First Dude and Interactif, but how close he is early depends entirely on how fast the pace is.
Value: The highest price he has been so far in his five-race career was 4-1 in the Lexington. But he is facing a much better group Saturday, and concerns over how far he really wants to go could put him in the neighborhood of 12-1 to 15-1. If you think the pace will be so slow that it might carry this one deep into the race, then he could be used underneath in exotic wagers. Otherwise, he is a bit of a stretch.
Sire: Limehouse showcased his versatility by winning at distances ranging from 4 1/2 furlongs to 1 1/8 miles. He was a Grade 2 winner both sprinting and routing and received nine triple-digit Beyer Speed Figures from 21 starts, highlighted by a 112 top. From a small sampling, Limehouse's best progeny have done their best running in sprints and middle-distance races.
Dam: Uptowncharlybrown is a half-brother to Startjumpin Marnie, a stakes-winning sprinter at 6 1/2 furlongs. Their dam won 1 of 8 starts racing exclusively in Puerto Rico. Her lone victory came at seven furlongs. She is a half-sister to Grade 3-placed sprinter Fire and Glory. The third dam is stakes-winning turf performer Estrella Fuega. This is the female family of Irish St. Leger winner Leading Counsel and multiple stakes winner Typecast.
Outlook: This seems more like a nine-furlong pedigree than one befitting a true stayer, but Uptowncharlybrown has plenty of stamina and class deep in the female family. He acts like a router and may see out this trip given the right pace and race flow.

what teeth whitening solution is better?
Whiten Teeth at Home Vs. Teeth Whitening at the Dentist?
Doctor Answers 11
Same Produced Result
They both produce the same result. Zoom whitening is a two hour office visit, take home trays take one to two hours per day for 7-14 days. The dentist needs to evaluate initial tooth color, areas of enamel wear, and existing restorations to pick the correct form of whitening for each patient.
The most important thing to look for in at-home kits is...
The most important thing to look for in at-home kits is that they fit the size and shape of your teeth. Example, whitening strips are straight across and your teeth are scalloped. Make sure the at-home bleaching kits cover your whole tooth otherwise you will have two toned teeth or irritated gums.
In-office whitening is the fastest - Home whitening gets better results
Lots of patients need great results fast - for weddings and other events. In-office whitening is ideal for these patients. On the other hand, 'professional strength' home whitening, with trays and gels, will get your teeth their whitest - but over a month or two.
Some patients start with in-office and continue their whitening at home, with the trays and gel. This is the best and fastest option possible.
You might also like...
Combined teeth whitening methods is best
Everyone would like things as quick and as easy as possible. That's why in office treatment was created. No homework involved, just come in and get it done.
While all treatments work, some work better and some last longer. I have found that the whitest result that lasted the longest is a combination of in office and take home products.
If you are looking for simply whit-ER, then just about anything will work. If you are looking for the whit-EST your own teeth can get, dentist assisted treatment is best.

Don't be tempted to buy kits over-the-counter or on the Internet. Not only are they not made to fit your mouth exactly, it may be that bleaching isn't suitable for you, especially if you have gum disease or crowns.

No one said beauty is cheap or easy to get. We all have to work hard, but if you need to make your life easier, then using home bleaching kits from the drugstore can give you a flash of white teeth. Do not expect for this to last long.
Best results are accomplished with dentist prescribed whitening. Both in-office or at-home dentist prescribed whitening treatments will give you faster and longer-lasting results. If your teeth are healthy and somewhat white, you can get a boost from over-the-counter products, but again, they will not last long.
Home teeth whitening works good
The combination of both office and home whitening work good. If you use just home whitening on a regular schedule like once or twice a week, it would whiten your smile as well.
Combination Approach
We have found that combining a professional home whitening kit with some laser whitening achieves the best results. Well fitting and well made trays are crucial in ensuring a good result.
In-office whitening is best. Provides maximum whitening...
In-office whitening is best. Provides maximum whitening with minimal effort, time and has the least sensitivity. Professionally supervision ensures effectiveness and safety.
Professional tooth whitening from a dentist is always...
Professional tooth whitening from a dentist is always recommended. Your dentist can check for gum diseases, as well as loose fillings. He/she will be able to fit you for trays as well.
When using the over-the-counter bleachers, there is a chance your teeth may get over-bleached. The reason I designed a whitening system (SuperSmile) was because I wanted to make sure there wasn't a chance for over-bleaching or sensitivity. The product can work on crowns, veneers, and natural teeth, as well as dentures.

Burnaby, Canada (SPX) Mar 19, 2012
Even if zero emissions of greenhouse gases were to be achieved, the world's temperature would continue to rise by about a quarter of a degree over a decade. That's a best-case scenario, according to a paper co-written by a Simon Fraser University researcher.
New climate change research - Climate response to zeroed emissions of greenhouse gases and aerosols - published in Nature's online journal, urges the public, governments and industries to wake up to a harsh new reality.
"Let's be honest, it's totally unrealistic to believe that we can stop all emissions now," says Zickfeld, an assistant professor of geography at SFU. "Even with aggressive greenhouse gas mitigation, it will be a challenge to keep the projected global rise in temperature under 2 degrees Celsius," emphasizes Zickfeld.
The geographer wrote the paper with Damon Matthews, a University of Concordia associate professor at the Department of Geography, Planning and Environment.
The duo used an earth system climate model developed by the University of Victoria to study the impact of greenhouse gas and aerosol emissions on the world's climate. The study was based on emission levels that are consistent with data from the 2007 report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
The removal of aerosols from the atmosphere would cause additional global warming in the short term, if all of those emissions were removed now. "The widespread presence of aerosols in the Earth's atmosphere is effectively acting like a solar radiation blocking blanket right now," explains Zickfeld.
"It's preventing the Earth's temperature from responding to the real effects of global warming. But once that aerosol-based blanket is removed the temperature will rise."
Due to the emission of greenhouse gases, the world's temperature has warmed by almost 1 degrees C since the beginning of the industrial era. The study finds that elimination of all emissions would lead to an additional short-term warming by 0.25 to 0.5 degrees.
"One to 1.5 degrees of global warming may not seem like a great deal," says Zickfeld. "But we need to realize that the warming would not be distributed equally over the globe, with mid to high latitude regions such as Canada, Alaska, northeastern Europe, Russia and northern China being most strongly affected.
"Our research shows that as a result of past emissions, a warming of at least 2 degrees C will be unavoidable in those regions."
Study a first on many levels
During the warming period the Earth's temperature would rise to roughly 1.3-Celsius degrees higher than it was at the beginning of the industrial era.
In the northern hemisphere that peak temperature would be closer to 2 degrees higher. The reason is that the warming is not distributed equally over the globe, and is amplified at high latitudes.
"Two degrees is pretty significant," notes Zickfeld, "when you consider the global temperature was only five degrees colder than today's during the ice age."
A decrease in greenhouse gases with short atmospheric lifetimes, such as methane and nitrous oxide, will cause the planet to gradually cool off after the warming phase.
The atmospheric concentration of long-lived greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide determines the world's long-term temperature.
This study is also the first to quantify the extent to which past greenhouse gas and aerosol emissions will warm oceans, causing them to rise. Zickfeld and Matthews found emissions to date will lead to about a 25 centimeters sea level rise in 2200, and the sea level will continue to rise for several centuries after that date.
The study doesn't analyse the impact of other factors, such as melting glaciers and ice sheets, on sea levels. These factors are expected to accelerate sea level rise further.

Climate Change Skepticism Stems from Recession
Storrs Mansfield CT (SPX) Mar 19, 2012
In recent years, the American public has grown increasingly skeptical of the existence of man-made climate change. Although pundits and scholars have suggested several reasons for this trend, a new study shows that the recent Great Recession has been a major factor. Lyle Scruggs, associate professor of political science in UConn's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, suggests that this sh ... read more

ok i am just starting too look into getting a watch. I would like any input on what people have and why what features they use and dont use and would like to have thanks
I've got the Nike+ Sportwatch. One of the reasons is because I started using the Nike+ stuff back when it was just a shoepod and an old school iPod Nano before moving up to the smartphone app and finally the Sportwatch. All my data from my very first run is still thee on the website.
I like the Nike+ because it's easy to use, gives me all the data I need and seems to be quite accurate.
Depends if you need GPS or not.
I used to have Polar RCX5 and loved it the whole winter when going cross country skiing in the woods. It´s thin and light so you can wear it daily, and the battery last like 6 months!
When I started running in the spring I noticed that the external GPS never could keep the signal close to tall buildings.
I then sold it and switched to Garmin 910XT and the accuracy of the GPS is a lot better and its faster to lock the signal.
Lots of training sites can use the Garmin Commuicator plugin so you can upload your training to strava, runkeeper, runtastic etc. It has an accellerometer that counts your turns when swimming in a pool so you get lap times (misses a turn occationally, but not a big problem). The Watch is rechargeable and last around 20h of use with GPS and 72h with no GPS.
In my experience Polar RCX5 is the best training watch and Garmin 910XT is the best GPS Watch but they´re both very expensive
I'm not into the high tech stuff or downloading or record keeping, but I did want the GPS ability to give me pace readings and distance. I got the Timex Marathon GPS for $99 and love it. There is no computer interface, so what the watch reads and stores is what you get. I can run a race, or a training run, and get distance/ave speed/cal burn/ave pace/mile-km splits/total time/lap times/ current pace/ current mph-kph. It's simple to use and water proof. Works great for cycling too.
I'd suggest turning it around. Why are you looking into getting a running watch? What "problem" are you hoping to solve by getting one? A little more info about your running might help people better understand your needs as well. Do you do any sort of logging of your runs? If so what information is important to you?
I am looking for some thing I can do mile time, distance, pace, MPH, Elv, and a way to log my runs.
You might want to check out this site
good luck
1+ D.C. Rainmaker. His reviews and comparisons are the best.
I have a Garmin 310XT. I chose that one because; long battery life (20+ hours), water (mostly) proof, I like the cycling functions, refreshes every 1-2 seconds, & I like to crunch numbers so being able to download my data is important to me.
I've been using the Polar RC3 with GPS. Very happy with it.

Martin Honored by Board of Regents at September Meeting
"...influence will be forever present and how the Board of Regents is a better governing board because of his involvement."
A reception was held at the Glacier View Room September 27 to honor Regent Bob Martin and his service to the university. Approximately 60 people attended. He was greeted enthusiastically receiving handshakes and congratulatory hugs from regents and UA administration.
UAS Chancellor John Pugh shared with everyone present about Bob Martin's many contributions to the people of Southeast Alaska and Regent Mary Hughes spoke about her dear friend and colleague who's influence will be forever present and how the Board of Regents is a better governing board because of his involvement.
President Gamble touched on the points of his enduring presence and continuity of his contributions, describing Bob Martin's impact as being so significant and having an effect on so many, students couldn't possibly comprehend that these were the actions of just one man.

So Letterboxd is open to the public now and all self respecting film fans should join and indulge in this great idea of a social network, come cataloging site, that basically caters solely for film fans.
One of the features I have found I most enjoy about the site is the List function. With this you can make any kind of filmic list you may so desire, however trite or idiotic. For instance I personally have made a list that covers all the films I've watched this year, as well as some other more fun list.
So here is where I'm going to share these lists with those of you who are not on, or have no interest in joining Letterboxd. I don't know why you wouldn't, but who am I to judge. This page will be updated every time I add a new list. This is update #2 (to view the list simply click on the title and it will take you to the Letterboxd page)
My 2012 Watch list
This is a running list of all the films I will have watched in 2012. I've a target of 600+ for this year.
Netflix Uk: Top 100?
I've been asked by the good Harry Cooke to make a list of what I think are the top films currently available on Netflix UK. These are my views so don't have an embolism at some of the titles.
This list is in no way in order!
Jean-Claude Van Damme: The Golden Era (1987-1995) Top Ten Ranked
Jean-Claude Van Damme has always been seen as the budget version of Schwarzenegger, Stallone and even Willis. He never quiet hit the box-office heights on as consistent a basis as his rivals. But for a period of 7/8 years in the late 80's and early 90's he was the man!
My Top 10 Horror films!
Ok Time Out magazine did a great Top 10 Horror films featuring some great writers, directors, and general all round good film guys.
So like a few others (Phil Walsh, Giles Edwards and Stuart Barr) I thought I'd add mine.
So here it is, and be warned its likely to change on a regular basis, dependent on mood.
Sylvester Stallone is more than just Rocky & Rambo: My top 10 none Rocky or Rambo Stallone films
Sylvester Stallone is best know for two of cinema's most iconic figures in Rocky Balboa, and John J. Rambo. But he is so much more. Here is my top 10 films where is is not the caring boxer, or the kick-ass war machine.
This guy could kick all of are asses, at once!!
Arnold Schwarzenegger: The Golden Era (1984-1991) Top Ten Ranked
The better and much better thought of Phil Walsh made his Golden Era Schwarzenegger list, so I thought I'd have a crack at mine……Here you go!
Update #2
John Carpenter: My Top 10
I love John Carpenter. I think he has made some of the most entertaining and watchable films of all time. And as you can see from my list, I even like many of the films most people hate.
So why not make your own Top 10 for this under appreciated director. Or simply comment on mine.
Robert De Niro: Top 10
Robert De Niro still ranks as my all time favourite actor. I know in recent years he's made some duds simply for the money (see my Robert De Niro: Bottom 10 list), to help finance his Tribecca projects, but a simple look back over his career an the quality of his output is staggering.
I really hope that over the next few years I get to knock a few of these films out for new films he has made.
Robert De Niro: Most disappointing 10
To satisfy the haters, and to go with my Robert De Niro: Top 10, is my Robert De Niro: Most disappointing 10.
You'll be surprised at what's not on it.
Anyway peace out suckers!

Calcutta, May 8: Andrew Yule & Company, the diversified public sector undertaking, is looking to come out of the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) in this financial year.
"Our net worth had turned positive and we are making profits. There are some income tax and legal issues for which we are still under the BIFR. We hope that the issues will be resolved soon and the company may come out of the BIFR this fiscal," Kallol Datta, chairman and managing director of Andrew Yule, said.
The Calcutta-based company, which is into the manufacturing of engineering equipment and tea, was referred to the BIFR in 2003.
The government had approved a restructuring scheme for the company in 2007.
The company's net worth had turned positive in 2008-09. It had also repaid part of the restructuring loan through the divestment of Phoneix Yule, DPSC and Tide Water Oil Company.
The company had sought an exemption on the capital gains it had accrued from the divestments.
In July last year, the BIFR had approved an increase in the share capital of Andrew Yules to Rs 110 crore from Rs 75 crore. The approval came after the cabinet committee on economic affairs allowed the conversion of the outstanding government loans of the company into equity. Along with this, an interest waiver helped the company to improve its working capital and profitability.
On the company's performance, Datta said the tea division was generating a major part of the revenue.
"In terms of yields, quality and profitability, the tea division is doing extremely well. Our focus is directed towards that division," he said, adding that the company is undergoing a major replantation drive. The company has gardens in Darjeeling, Assam and the Dooars.
While Andrew Yule's results for the fourth quarter of 2013-14 are awaited, Datta said the company had improved its sales in the tea, engineering and electrical businesses.
In 2012-13, the company had earned a revenue of Rs 321.74 crore, driven by its tea business. Tea sales stood at around Rs 150 crore on the back of better prices. Earnings from the electrical division stood at Rs 85.91 crore, while the engineering unit contributed Rs 30.41 crore.
The company has recently entered into a technical tie-up with a Russian transformer manufacturer to produce high voltage transformers. It plans to invest Rs 150 crore to set up a manufacturing plant in south India.

Dealbreaker: He's Saving Himself For Marriage
I sat at the airport, waiting to board Virgin Airlines flight 451 traveling non-stop to my sunny destination … to a friend's wedding. I exhaled. It had been too long since I had been on a real vacation. All my vacation days seem to be designated to other people's weddings. In the terminal, I replayed the fantasy I've always had that one lucky time in my life I would end up seated next to a hot man on a plane, all the planets would align, and we would join the illustrious Mile-High Club. Maybe I could even take him as my wedding date.
I know. It's totally implausible. But that's what makes it so exciting, the fact that it will probably never happen. I scanned the airport to see the crop of potential men around me.
As I was assessing a scruffy, older-looking salt-and-pepper-haired man in a suit who was reading The Tipping Point, someone dropped a duffel bag on the seat next to me. I looked up at a very tall, very handsome guy with an awesome body, and even more awesome smile. I blushed, averted my eyes, and put my book up in front of my face so I could check him out discreetly.
He was exactly my type in every way. From his curly mop, to his hazel eyes, down to his Converse. I stared straight ahead at CNN News watching him in my peripheral vision, waiting for the right moment to make contact. I picked at my blueberry muffin, pretending to be interested in it. "The first commercial flight to the moon may be a reality sooner than we think," the newscaster reported. We turned to each other and smiled.
"I'm sooo going to be on that flight," he said, "I don't care how much it costs."
"In this lifetime? I don't know."
His eyes lit up with a wild enthusiasm when he spoke. "I'm Bryce." He shook my hand. His hands were large and rough. Sexy. I introduced myself.
"I'm starving," he said. "I should probably get something before we get on the plane."
"Here, take my muffin," I offered him the sad cardboard-ish pastry. I wasn't ready for him to leave so soon.
Bryce wasn't seated next to me on the plane as he would have been in my cosmic fantasy, but we had made enough conversation in the terminal that he had slipped me his business card. He was heading home from a business trip and I had told him I was on my way to yet another wedding. I looked back and saw his face. Bryce was fast asleep three rows behind me. I was wide awake playing out various post-flight scenarios. If I'm being honest, most of them involved Bryce unclothed in some fashion.
As we landed, I played it cool, getting off the plane counting on the fact that we would reunite at baggage claim. He walked up behind me on the escalator.
"I was hoping I'd run into you again."
"Me too," I said, my pulse quickening a bit.
"How are you getting to your hotel?"
"Taxi," I said. "You?"
"My car's here. Wanna ride?" Jackpot.
We got into his car. "So you're on your way to a wedding?" he asked. "How come you're not married? In some places that would be considered scandalous."
"I haven't found the right person. Plus, I don't know if I really believe in marriage anymore," I replied. "I'm so sick of weddings."
"Really? I do. Marriage is really important to me."
"Not the typical response from a guy," I said. "Mind if I ask why?"
"Well, because I'm a Christian … and I'm saving myself for marriage. To a Christian woman," he looked at me waiting for my response.
"What? Are you serious?"
He was serious. Dead serious. Given his honesty, it was only fair for me to admit that I was a very sexually experienced Buddhist. My airport fling fantasy crashed and burned. Only I would find a virgin on Virgin Airlines. A rare species.
We pulled up to my hotel, singing along to "Rock the Casbah" on the radio when he turned toward me.
"Can I kiss you?" he asked.
I was taken aback. "I thought I was off your menu of women, but sure! Why not?"
Bryce leaned in. He kissed like a virgin, but not in a bad way, just in an "animal that needs to get out of his cage" way. He stopped me before I could go below the belt. He'd never ventured there before. Bummer. As I kissed him, straight-jacketed from the waist up, I realized that, actually, he was the one who was off the menu for me. I respect his beliefs, but sex is a bell that you can't un-ring. Especially after 12 years of having it. Not that I would turn down the opportunity to deflower some very special guy. I would go for it. But Bryce didn't want to be deflowered by me unless I accepted Jesus as my lord and savior and walked down the aisle. Something I would never be able to give him.
As Bryce ran his hand down my back (above my belt), and over my chest (above the bra), I tried to imagine what life would be like if I had never had sex with anyone. I couldn't. It's just too important to me. Lack of sexual chemistry was what ended my most serious long-term-relationship to the only person whom I ever had considered marrying. I won't get involved with anyone seriously again unless I know we are moderately sexually compatible. While there are some sexual experiences I'd like to delete from my hard drive, most are very sacred to me. Just as sacred as Bryce was claiming his chastity to be.
Sex has allowed me to get intimate with other people in a way that I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. It's allowed me to be vulnerable and, in turn, learn things about myself I wouldn't have otherwise — about the difference between love, lust, passion, and just plain fun. It's allowed me to understand more clearly what I am looking for in a potential mate. Even though Bryce's lips were on my lips, his hand in my hand, we existed in completely different universes. And it was implausible that we'd ever be able to meet somewhere in between. At least, not in this lifetime.

License plate lights
So I have this issue and I can't find anything online or in the forums about it. I have LED Sylviana license plate bulbs and they have been working just fine until today. My driver's side bulb is glowing at a much lower brightness level as the passenger side. Any ideas as far as how to fix this? Again, the bulbs are both working but the brightness level is much less than that of the passenger's side. :banghead:
Anyone? :(
Lil help?
I have LED light for license plate but it's hand made by myself so I don't know about your "Sylviana" LED but mostly LED light design as module type meaning it take many pcs of LED unit to join together maybe series or parallel or both connection so I guess it just causing some pcs of LED burned to increasing internal resistor make electric current low so oull low the LED light.
Sorry for my English and hope this could help.
Just buy new ones. Pretty cheap now adays. www.gluxlite.com bought some here. Cheaper than most websites.

Slowdown of the New Economy
"I can think of no better way to generate an economic downturn than to have the media convince everyone that there is one." MIKE MAHANNAH North Vancouver, B.C.
Will there be a recession [BUSINESS, Jan. 8]? The performance of the stock market provides an interesting view of business conditions, but that certainly is not a full measure of the New Economy. Savings are down. The money has to be going somewhere. My guess is that a great deal is being invested in real estate. There is only a recession in the eyes of the media. The...

Through their lawyer, Guns N' Roses send a letter to Dr Pepper, requesting the company to apologize for their failure to deliver free soda and blasting their offer as a 'complete fiasco.'
Lawyer for Guns N' Roses and Axl Rose, Alan Gutman, has written to Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. CEO Larry Young to "clean the mess." Accusing the company for running a scheme that was "unmitigated disaster which defrauded customers," the band blast Dr Pepper for failing to deliver free soft drinks on the day "Chinese Democracy" hit the market on November 23.
Furthermore, on the letter the rockers also ask Dr Pepper to provide extra days for their one-day offer. On top of that, they also require a written full-page apology in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, USA Today, and The Wall Street Journal for the inconvenience.
Emphasizing the campaign as an "exploitation of my clients' legendary reputation and their eagerly awaited album" and "brazenly violated our clients' rights," Gutman seeks an "appropriate payment ... for the unauthorized use and abuse of their publicity and intellectual property rights," with a threat of legal action if an acceptable offer is not made.
Dr Pepper's web has reportedly been crashed due to overloaded entry from Guns N' Roses' fans who want to get coupons which are redeemable for one 20-oz Dr Pepper soda. In anticipation of that, the company have extended their offer for an extra day, but the website proves to be inaccessible for a substantial part of it. "Dr Pepper was completely unprepared for the traffic to its site," Gutman blasts in the letter, claiming the promotion as a "complete fiasco."

text: ...and I want to share it all with you! I'm giving $50,000 to up to 14 of you and I'm using the remaining $250,000 to cover all of the insurance and track fees. I'm in the process of putting together a track day at Trial Mountain located just a few hours west of me. Unfortunately there are a few quirky rules with the only insurance policy available to me. I'll list them out for you all: 1) Before stepping foot on the track, every modification made to your car must be declared and you must attest that no other alterations exist. Due to the nature of used cars, you can't guarantee that a gearhead before you hasn't messed with anything so I'm only allowing brand new cars on the track. 2) Only comfort tires are allowed - something to do with the rules defining a track meet vs a professional race or something like that. Because of this odd rule, I'm going to foot the bill for this and give everyone a new set of comfort soft tires - so make sure your car is properly equipped come race day. 3) An oil change is required to ensure that your car is in optimal condition and won't explode on the track. This will count against your $50,000 so be sure to factor that into your finances. As far as I know those are the only restrictions for the meet. You are not allowed to chip in any of your own money into the car. So $50,000 is the absolute ceiling. If you don't end up spending it all, you can buy a burger on race day. If you guys have any other questions, feel free to contact me here. I look forward to seeing you all out here soon and may the best man win!

London, UK (SPX) May 28, 2014
The cognitive differences between humans and our closest living cousins, the chimpanzees, are staggeringly obvious. Although we share strong superficial physical similarities, we have been able to use our incredible mental abilities to construct civilisations and manipulate our environment to our will, allowing us to take over our planet and walk on the moon while the chimps grub around in a few remaining African forests.
But a new study suggests that human muscle may be just as unique. Scientists from Shanghai's CAS-MPG Partner Institute for Computational Biology, together with teams from German Max Planck Institutes, investigated the evolution of metabolites - small molecules like sugars, vitamins, amino acids and neurotransmitters that represent key elements of our physiological functions.
Their study found that metabolite concentrations evolved rapidly over the course of human evolution in two tissues: in the brain and, more surprisingly, in muscle. An article describing their findings will be published in the open-access journal PLOS Biology.
Genomes, including the human genome, accumulate changes steadily over time. Among the genetic changes that have happened over the course of human evolution, only a few might be responsible for the rise of distinct human features.
To determine what other molecules played a role in human evolution, scientists began to look beyond the genome. The international team of scientists, led by Dr Philipp Khaitovich from Shanghai, examined for the first time the evolution of the human metabolome - the compendium of metabolites present in human tissues.
"Metabolites are more dynamic than the genome and they can give us more information about what makes us human", says Khaitovich. "It is also commonly known that the human brain consumes way more energy than the brains of other species; we were curious to see which metabolic processes this involves."
Indeed, it turned out that unlike the uniformly-paced evolution of the genome, the metabolome of the human brain has evolved four times faster than that of the chimpanzee. What was more surprising, however, is that human muscle accumulated an even higher amount of metabolic change - ten times that of the chimpanzee!
To rule out the possibility that this change simply reflects our couch potato lifestyle, the scientists performed additional measurements in specially treated macaque monkeys. These macaques were moved from a spacious countryside facility to small indoor enclosures and served fatty and sugary food for several weeks, to imitate the environment of many contemporary humans.
These lifestyle changes had only a small effect on the macaque muscle metabolome. "For a long time we were confused by metabolic changes in human muscle", says Dr Kasia Bozek, the lead author of the study, "until we realized that what other primates have in common, in contrast to humans, is their enormous muscle strength."
Dr Josep Call, from the Wolfgang Kohler Primate Research Center in Leipzig, Germany, concurs: "This is common knowledge to all the zoo keepers, but it was never tested systematically." To prove their point, researchers involved several chimpanzees, macaques, university students, and even professional athletes in a pulling strength competition.
Despite their sweat and determination, all of the human participants of the experiment were outcompeted by their primate opponents by more than two-fold. A tantalizing hypothesis suggested by the scientists is that the metabolic roles of human brain and brawn are intertwined.
"Our results suggest a special energy management in humans, that allows us to spare energy for our extraordinary cognitive powers at a cost of weak muscle", summarizes Dr Kasia Bozek.
"The world of human metabolomics is just starting to open up its secrets to us", adds Dr Patrick Giavalisco, who led the metabolome measurement effort at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Plant Physiology in Golm. "Such human-specific metabolic features we find could be related not only to physical or cognitive performance but also to common human metabolic diseases".
Bozek K, Wei Y, Yan Z, Liu X, Xiong J, et al. (2014) Exceptional Evolutionary Divergence of Human Muscle and Brain Metabolomes Parallels Human Cognitive and Physical Uniqueness. PLoS Biol 12(5): e1001871. doi:10.1371/journal.pbio.1001871

Survivor: Gabon
Corinne Kaplan the twelfth castaway ousted from 'Survivor: Gabon'
By John Bracchitta, 12/05/2008
After spending 33 days in Gabon and watching all but one of her allies slowly be voted out of the game,
Corinne Kaplan
, a 29-year-old pharmaceutical sales representative from Los Angeles, CA, became the twelfth castaway to be eliminated from
: Gabon
during last night's broadcast on CBS.
"I can't stand [Jessica "Sugar" Kiper], I'll never be able to stand Sugar, and I plan to never exchange another sentence with that girl for the rest of my life," Corinne said in her usual blunt manner following her elimination. "I really just don't like any of those people other than [Robert "Bob" Crowley] and [Ken "Kenny" Hoang]. I really, really, really wish Bob and Kenny all the best and I hope the rest of them have miserable lives."
: Gabon's
eleventh episode began on Night 30 as the seven remaining Nobag tribe members returned in a variety of moods following a memorable
Randy Bailey
, who had attempted to play a hidden Immunity Idol that he was surprised to learn was in fact a fake.
As Sugar, a 29-year-old pin-up model and actress from Brooklyn, NY, and
Crystal Cox
, a 29-year-old 2004 Olympic gold-medalist track athlete from Durham, NC, continued to joke about Randy's elimination, Bob -- a 57-year-old physics teacher from South Portland, ME who had knowingly supplied Randy with the fake idol at Sugar's request -- took issue with their gloating.
"Don't laugh like that! You know what? That pisses me off sticking it in his face," Bob told them angrily. "I didn't mind doing the thing, but then to just belittle him as he was going out pisses me off. I'm over it now, but don't ever do it again."
While Sugar immediately apologized to Bob, she later reiterated her joy in Randy's humiliating dismissal.
"I don't feel one iota, a bit sorry for Randy because he dug his own grave, and it's hilarious that someone gave him a fake idol and he played it," Sugar said.
However, Sugar's night was not yet done, as she soon drew the ire of Corinne as well after criticizing her tendency to talk about people behind their backs.
"If I'd told everyone to their faces what I said behind their backs I wouldn't be playing a very good game would I?" Corinne shot back after the criticism from Sugar.
"Well you shouldn't be talking about people behind their backs!" countered Sugar.
"This is
! You don't come here to make friends, you come here to play the game," Corinne responded.
"In general, I am a nice person to people I like," Corinne added later of her trouble with Sugar -- and most of her other tribemates for that matter. "I am now in a camp of mutants, none of whom I like, so it's very difficult to pretend to be nice to them."
The following day, the castaways met with
Jeff Probst
for their Reward Challenge, which was split into two parts. The first section of the challenge consisted of dividing the seven castaways into two teams of three -- with one sitting out -- and then having them race through a swamp to retrieve seven sprocket-shaped puzzle pieces. Once a team had carried all seven pieces through the swamp and back to a mounting area, they had to arrange the gears in such a way that they would work as a machine and raise a team flag.
The three castaways on the team that was first to raise their flag would then move on to the second part of the challenge and individually compete to solve a slide puzzle. The first castaway to solve the puzzle would be given a meal of brownies, pizza and beer and a video message from loved ones at home.
"You fill up your belly and fill up your heart," Jeff added.
Sugar and
Susie Smith
, a 47-year-old hairdresser and assistant teacher from Charles City, IA, were randomly selected as the teams' captains and got to alternate turns in picking the rest of their teams. When they were done, Sugar's team consisted of herself, Crystal, and Bob while Susie's team consisted of herself, Kenny, and
Matty Whitmore
, a 29-year-old personal trainer from Pacific Palisades, CA.
Since the challenge required even teams, Jeff then informed Corinne -- the only castaway that wasn't chosen -- that she would not get to compete in the challange.
The selection process worried Corinne, who realized that the fact she had been the odd castaway out was another indication that Sugar, Susie, Crystal, Kenny, and Matty were all planning on sticking with their five-person alliance.
"It sucks because I don't wanna go home, and I don't know what to do to save myself," she said later.
While the team of Matty, Kenny and Susie jumped out to an early lead and got their seven pieces across the swamp first, they lost their lead while assembling the pieces, as Bob, Sugar and Crystal had no trouble putting the pieces together and were able to raise their flag first.
Bob, Sugar and Crystal then moved on to the slide puzzle where Bob finished well ahead of his teammates to win the challenge.
Following the challenge, Kenny stated that Bob had established himself as a threat in the game and would have to be dealt with as soon as possible.
"We think he's a threat, so if Bob doesn't win immunity, he's the next to go," Kenny said.
After receiving his food and sitting down to watch the video, Bob was ecstatic when his wife Peggy -- his loved one in the video -- suddenly came out from behind a tree to surprise him and share his food with him.
Following the meal, Bob returned to the Nobag camp with Peggy to introduce her to the tribe. However, Bob then revealed that each tribe member's loved ones had also come to Gabon and had them emerge from behind a hill as the castaways ran out to them excitedly and broke into tears.
Well aware that her attitude had been one of the primary reasons for her general unpopularity in the tribe, Corinne was glad to see someone who liked her personality in her brother.
"Seeing my brother, and seeing someone who loves me, and who knows me, and gets my sense of humor and knows how mean I am and loves it was such a cool... I was overrun with emotion," Corinne said.
The castaways' meetings with their loved ones culminated in a teary marriage proposal by Matty to his girlfriend.
"I made this for you, will you be my wife?" a choked up Matty said as he took out a handmade necklace and gave it to her before she accepted the proposal.
"The good things in life aren't easy and they require a lot of work and a lot of digging deep and if you keep digging you will find it," an excited Matty said after the proposal. "I mean it's endless, you have so much ability and gold in you, and if you just dig for it you will find it."
After the brief break from the game to spend time with their loved ones, the castaways resumed their strategizing on Day 33. As they walked to retrieve the tribe's Tree Mail, Bob suggested to Corinne that the upcoming Tribal Council would be the perfect opportunity to blindside Matty if they could turn two members of the other five tribe members who were currently allied against them.
In order to do so, Bob suggested that he build a second fake immunity idol and attempt to pass it off as the idol that
Marcus Lehman
thrown into the ocean
during the fake merge feast that had occurred earlier in the game.
"I'm going to make my second very good fake idol of the game, and the plan with the idol is I'm gonna tell somebody on the other side that I've got the original idol that was supposed to go into the ocean so they gotta be careful how they vote," Bob said later.
Using the idol as leverage, Bob said that he and Corinne could attempt to flip two tribe members and get them to vote for Matty and send him home.
While aware that the plan would likely be the only way to possible save both she and Bob from elimination, Corinne noted that in order to have the plan work one of them would have to win the Immunity Challenge.
"Well, we'll do that," Bob promised with a smile.
Later that day, the castaways met with Jeff for the Immunity Challenge, which would consist of him asking the tribe members trivia questions about Gabon. For each question a castaway answered correctly, they would receive a ball, which they would use after the questions to throw down a hill at a giant target. The castaway whose ball landed closest to the target's center would be awarded immunity.
After being asked a series of question, Sugar answered four questions right to receive for balls for the target throw. Corinne and Bob tied for second with three balls each, while Matty and Kenny each received two balls and Susie and Crystal only received one.
Each castaway then took turns throwing their balls towards the target. As he had promised Corinne, Bob emerged victorious from the challenge after his second ball landed in the second ring from the center, beating any other castaways' tosses by two rings on the target.
"Winning the challenge today saved me," Bob said following his win. "I'm gonna get the fake idol built. There are five Fang members here, and I'm gonna suggest that two of them go in with Corinne and I. If it all goes as planned, perfect time to blindside Matty."
Bob and Corinne met after the Immunity Challenge and came up with the story surrounding the fake idol that they would be attempting to sell to the other tribe members. They settled on a story that involved Marcus telling Bob where he had hidden the idol after pocketing it during the feast, but accidentally not bringing it with him to the Tribal Council in which he was eliminated.
After holding on to the idol since Marcus' elimination, Bob would say that he only informed Corinne of the idol after he had won the Immunity Challenge and offered the idol to her in order to keep his only remaining ally safe at the upcoming Tribal Council.
"I hope this works, it's such a longshot but its all we got," Corinne told Bob with a nervous laugh.
Meanwhile, the conversation between the other five tribe members seemed to feature less discussion about who to send home at the upcoming Tribal Council than there was about the proper spelling of Corinne's first name.
"All we know is this five is tight and we're staying strong," Kenny told his allies. "Corinne's gone, no one's flipping and we're good."
However, Kenny's words to his "allies" seemed to end up being nothing more than lip service, as he agreed to turn on them as soon as Corinne told him of the "idol" in Bob's possession and their plan to eliminate Matty said.
"This has definitely changed the game, and I think the best shot is to blindside Matty right now," Kenny said after the meeting with Corinne. "I think I might have to jump alliances now. Oh my God!"
After discussing the matter with Bob and Corinne, Kenny suggested that Crystal would most likely come on board as the fourth member of their plan. As Bob went to find her, Corinne was shocked to see that she and Bob's wild scheme was actually working.
"It just shows you the level of incompetence that we're playing with," she boasted about her fellow castaways.
Bob seemed to have little trouble wooing Crystal with the fake idol and Bob's promise that the new foursome would ride into the Final 4 with little trouble.
"I'm cool with that," Crystal told him.
However, prior to leaving for Tribal Council, Kenny met with Crystal and -- apparently unaware that the same end result could have been achieved without either Crystal or himself voting for Matty -- told Crystal to vote for Corinne while he would vote for Matty and attempt "flesh out" the idol by getting Corinne to use it. The result would be four votes for Corinne, three votes for Matty, and Matty going home after Corinne used the idol.
At Tribal Council that evening the subject at hand was "paranoia," with Jeff asking the castaways of the worries they had seen amongst the tribe as the competition progresses.
Susie admitted that she felt a natural shift away from established alliances and towards more individual thinking had begun to occur.
"The alliances that you make have to get you to a certain point, and when people start getting paranoid, it's a domino effect," she told Jeff. "You do have to think ahead."
"This is the first time I've never been paranoid," added Bob. "You get to realize what it feels like to have [immunity], but I'll be paranoid next time I come in here."
Corinne admitted that the paranoia amongst the tribe could be utilized and seen as a tool to improve one's standing in the tribe.
"Bob and I are kind of on the outside of a tight group of five," she said. "If paranoia sets in, maybe there is a possibility to try and break it up."
The castaways then cast their elimination votes. Prior to Jeff's revelation of who would be eliminated, Corinne -- despite some anxious nodding from Kenny -- made no move to play her "idol."
Jeff then revealed that, with four votes, Corinne had been eliminated from the competition over Matty, who received three votes.
As Corinne's flame was extinguished, Bob was visibly disappointed that his plan had not worked and put his head into his hands.
"Well the big theme of the night, paranoia," Jeff said following the elimination. "The question is how do you make the paranoia work for you and not against you."

Amanda Seyfried, New York premiere of Les Miserables, December 2012
It's nearly Christmas time, which of course has many meanings. Namely goodwill toward others, swags of pressies, enormous feasts and a traditions galore. It's also the time for bling. Big, sparkly, over the top bling. Because really, when else is it a good thing to be mistaken for a Christmas tree ornament? Never I tell you. Mastering bling is an exercise in restraint. But that said, excess is the name of the game this time of the year so really, there are no rules. Amanda Seyfried has excellent bling in this look. It's gold, it's excessive, it's sparkly. But you know what? It's not too much. And it's tempered by the length of her dress and the sleekness of the rest of her ensemble. Seyried would only ever be mistaken for one of those really posh artisan Christmas ornaments. Not a scrap of tinsel to be seen.

BALTIMORE - Road trip to New York proves to be successful in first match of two this weekend, as the Loyola University Maryland men and women's tennis teams defeat Siena College, 4-3 and 5-2, respectively.
In the men's match, the Greyhounds made it look easy, taking all three doubles matches to take the early lead, 1-0, going into singles. Senior captain Bobby Gorczakowski and freshman Connor Pietrak led Loyola at #1 doubles, defeating the Saints, 8-2. In the other two doubles matches with pairings of Harrison Kunkel/Connor Lisco and Jordan Kuchta/Greg Olesnycky, the Greyhounds kept it close but won 9-8 in both matches.
In singles, Gorczakowski and Kunkel moved Loyola's lead to 3-0 for the match with great play at #1 and #2 singles. The Saints eased their way back into the match with back-to-back victories at #3 and #4 singles, defeating Pietrak and Kuchta. Kuchta played hard up to the end, as he took it to extra sets falling 6-3, 4-6, 6-4. Lisco sealed the match with a close second-set victory at #5 singles, winning 6-2, 7-6.
With the victory, the men's record improves to 10-5 for the season.
The women improved their record to 12-3 today with a strong 5-2 win over the Saints. In doubles, freshmen Haleigh Morgus and Emily Hughes shutdown Siena at the #1 slot with an impressive 8-0 victory. Siena took the second match, 8-5, over Greyhounds' Megan Hahn and Olivia Ott, leaving the doubles point decision on the third match. At #3 doubles, Scarlett Hoy and Tiffany Ash grabbed the point for Loyola as they knocked off the Saints, 8-5.
With a 1-0 lead headed into singles, Hahn and Morgus showed skill with victories in #1 and #2 singles. Hahn won 6-1, 6-0, as well as Morgus winning 6-2, 6-3. Once again, Siena didn't give up on the match, taking the next two singles matches over Hughes and Hoy. #5 singles Ott and #6 singles Ash sealed the win for the Greyhounds as both won their matches. Ott pulled out a close first set, winning 7-6, 6-1, as Ash took it to extra sets, winning 3-6, 6-0, 7-5.
Both squads continue their conference road trip in New York as they travel to Poughkeepsie on Sunday for a dual match against MAAC-foe Marist College. Start time is set for 10 a.m.

I'm looking to opinions about having a baby shower for baby #2...
Nope - no shower for the 2nd in my opinion.
Jeff+Elizabeth - July 2006
Thomas James - January 2009
Edwin Michael - June 2013
Wow didn't know baby showers were this big of a issue!!! My close friends and family could care less because shower or not we're getting you gift. Maybe you need all the big things like swings, boppie pillows, car seats, or strollers. But every mom could use extra diapers or onsies
It's usually tacky - the exceptions are - if you have a big gap in kids and have no stuff from your first one - or if you are having a different gender and you have a very small shower - someone should always throw it for you, you should never host your own party.
I had a large shower with my first - and when I was pregnant with my second (a different gender) my girlfriends, mom and mother in law (a small group) had brunh and people brought little boy gifts - it was small and intimate.
No one will tell you this to your face - but even if you have a party to "celebrate having a new baby" it's still a gift grab - people are still going to feel obligated to bring you a present, plain and simple. If you really want to have something celebrating your new baby - as I think you should - have something after the baby is born. That way people can actually see the baby. We baptize our children within a few weeks of birth and always host an "open house" type gathering at our house after - so people can come and go as they please over a few hours and we aren't overwhelmed with too many guests. Some people choose to bring a small gift for our kids at these, but many don't.
Just my 2 cents from someone in a large circle of women with multiple babies!
My kids will be 7 years apart. All of my baby stuff is long gone. Of course, we are prepared to buy whatever we need for this 2nd baby, but my sister has already told me that she will throw a shower for me.
I think when you're kids are far apart in age, a 2nd shower is completely acceptable. I've forgotten so much, and so many new things have come out, it's almost like having my 1st all over again!
I think a "sprinkle" for any 2nd child, regardless of the gender or age difference is completely acceptable. Every baby needs diapers and wipes!
Mommy to IzzyB 4/10/06 and Baby Girl #2 due 6/15/13
My two closest friends that know I'm pregnant have told me they plan on having a baby shower for me. With my daughter I lived out of state and due to work schedules, I didn't get to come back to have a shower with friends and family. My coworkers had a small shower at work for me. I think it's great that they want to have a baby shower for me, but would never have asked them to do it. We have most of our daughter's stuff still, but if I find out I'm having a boy, the only thing we'll need are boy clothes. It will be more of a fun get together :)
ah this is funny. i think baby showers are so funny. women run out to some store and they want the lastest gadegts that are so overrated for a baby and then people buy them teh stuff then you all sit around in some vomit induced pink nightmare or blue ocean of yuck and watch some poor woman open up guifts yuck!
that being said. this is my 6th baby , my youngest is 8years old . we have no baby stuff left though i only use a pack and play and carseat and sling , we are starting over , my daughter wants to plan a baby shower fine but she knows me and she knows al the super fluff will not be allowed . so we decided to have one that did not suck. i will not open gifts in front of people , if they bring one it will be unwrapped or i will open it later in private , also it will be more like a party then anything else she wants to plan a cook out type thing etc... the other thing is I WANT ONE. i have 5 kids and i have had 2 showers that wer efilled with other people's friends because i had none. at this stage in my life however i have female friends that i want to share this with. my biggest fear is that i will end up pacifiers which i never used , bottles which i never used , thsoe stupid headband things , or worse baby shoes. but all wil be well because it is a celebration of life of a family welcoming a new member and why not celebrate it regradless of how many or what ever.
now that being said . in my circle of life even if it is a woman's 2end or 5th or whatever we throw her a diaper and wipe party , nothing uber fancy but something for her and the baby and that is fine too.
J&B est 2004
MC 2/15 TTC Rainbow Baby
A sprinkle seems to be the best for baby #2, especially if its the same gender as #1. If its not, then a small shower for gender related items seems fitting. That's what we'll be doing!
If you don't want to register for friends to buy you things, I would (and plan to) still make a registry- most stores give you a discount on items that aren't purchased after your "shower". I'm going to register, make up a shower date, but a couple little things as though I were a guest at the shower and then get my 10% off later. Put diapers and wipes and things too :)
Ive had family members offer to have me a babyshower and this is my second. My last babyshower was 6 years ago though so i have NOTHING left:)

Educational Resources Journey to the Land of the Pharaohs
January 8–20, 2008 • Hosted by Dr. Steven Derfler
Includes airfare, great hotels, transfers & more!
To travel to the land of Egypt is to feel profoundly touched by history. The glory and greatness, mystery and mystique that was once Egypt, beckons alluringly. Come and explore an ancient land shaped by temples, tombs, and hieroglyphs as we visit a civilization shaped by the mighty Nile River.
Detailed Itinerary
Tuesday, January 8: USA/Egypt. Depart from Minneapolis or New York on the first leg of our overnight flight to Egypt via EgyptAir jet service.
Wednesday, January 9: Cairo. Arrival in Cairo, where we are warmly greeted by our guide, assisted through customs formalities, then escorted to our private touring coach and transferred to our Cairo hotel.
Thursday, January 10: Memphis, Sakkara, Giza. We drive along the Nile this morning to the ancient capital of Memphis. Though most of the city has been destroyed by time, the magnificent Alabaster Sphinx and the mammoth statue of Ramses II remain. We continue to the Necropolis of Sakkara, City of the Dead, where we view the famous Step Pyramid of King Zoser, Pyramid of Teti, Mastaba of Mereruka and the Wall of Cobras.
Friday, January 11: Aswan. After breakfast aboard the train, we'll begin our touring in Aswan. Our visits include the High Dam and the lotus-shaped monument to Soviet-Egyptian cooperation, where it is possible to enjoy a wonderful view of Lake Nasser. We continue to the unfinished obelisk. Fractured during cutting and abandoned, this work of art shows how these magnificent monuments were painstakingly hewn by hand and polished to a glassy smoothness. On to Philae Island, one of Egypt's most impressive sights before being flooded after the first Aswan Dam was built. The new site represents a complete restoration of the original. Take advantage of an optional camel ride to San Simeon Monastery and Qubbet el-Hawa Tombs, then we'll transfer to our cruise ship for embarkation and dinner.
Tuesday, January 15: Luxor/Esna. This morning we visit the Temples of Karnak and Luxor. Karnak is possibly one of the most overwhelming monuments of the Pharaonic legacy, with work carried out on the temples over a period of 1500 years. The Luxor Temple is strikingly graceful and was added to over the centuries by Tutankhamun, Ramses II and others. This afternoon we'll enjoy a change of pace as we take a carriage ride into the countryside and visit the Coptic Christian village of Ngaa el Syagh. We'll return to our ship to continue sailing to Esna.
Wednesday, January 16: Edfu/Kom Ombo. This morning we'll sail to Edfu. After lunch, we'll visit Kom Ombo, where we'll explore the Tombs of El Kab and the Temple of Kom Ombo, unique in all of Egypt and shared by the two gods, Sobek and Haroeris.
Friday, January 18: Aswan/Cairo/Roda & Gezira Island. This morning, disembark from our cruise and transfer to the airport for the short flight to Cairo. Our touring in Cairo begins with a visit to Roda Island, which contains on its northern reaches the Manial Palace. On to Gezira Island with its parks and El-Borg, a 600-foot tower offering a marvelous view of Cairo and the Nile from its observation deck. Later we'll visit Sadat's Tomb. Overnight at our Cairo hotel.
Saturday, January 19: Cairo.Today's visits include the Cairo Museum, regarded as one of the most prominent in the world, where we can view remarkable treasures dating back 5,000 years. Here we'll visit the priceless antiquities of King Tutankhamen's tomb and the intriguing Mummy Room.
Our tour continues to the Coptic Quarter, centerpiece of Old Cairo, where we visit the Christian and Jewish Quarters of the Old City, the Abu Serqa Church, the Ben Ezra Synagogue, the Citadel of Mohamed Ali, built on the remains of a Crusader-style fortress dating from the time of Saladin, Sultan Hassan Mosque which was built from the alabaster cover stones of the Pyramids of Giza in 1369, and the fascinating Khan el-Khalili Bazaar. Dinner tonight is on the Nile Pharaoh Cruise Boat.
Sunday, January 20: Cairo/USA. Say a reluctant goodbye to Egypt as we transfer to the airport early this morning to board our return flight to the USA, arriving in Minneapolis later this afternoon.
