While short, this is a fantastic trail that I run and bike on all the time. I've rollerbladed on it too, although there are enough tree roots and other challenges that made rollerblading on it a one-time event.
Rode this trail June 4, 2017, from the top to the bottom and back to the top, 29.8 miles round trip. Definitely need a bright light in the longer tunnels, twice I had deer standing in the tunnel and scurrying out ahead of me as I exited. The tunnels have significant cold water dripping from the roof onto your back and creating numerous puddles (your bike will get very dirty). Fun ride, friendly staff, beautiful environment. Riding my own bike, instead of a rental, made it faster and more fun. Bring a picnic so you can hang out after and enjoy the sunshine after the cold, dark tunnels.
Twin Falls gas taken steps to acquire easements for the canyon rim trails which is cool. There is disconnect that goes through neighborhood s and its not marked near the shopping district. Then the trail ends at Eastland Road where there are no bike lanes to Falls Ave to Champion Rd which will then connect you to the East segment.
Record heavy snows and the resulting above average run off have closed most of the trail. As of April Only eastern most 9 miles remain open. Federal water managers predict above flood stage releases into June. Check City of Boise website for closure maps. A key bridge between Boise and Garden City has been removed to save it from falling in the river and park managers say it will have to be relocated. Thus when flooding subsides you will not be able to ride the trail from one end to the other non stop. When it dries out it is still a great trail you will have to ride part and find the detour around the missing bridge to continue on.
Yes I have skated this 73 mile path. It is one of the smoothest paths in USA. I skated West and paid one of the locals ($50)to come and pick us up at the end of the trail. Gary Krupey 636-343-4898
Three of us rode almost the full length of the trail on October 8 & 9. Weather was perfect. We rode downgrade from north to south and overnighted at Mundo Hot Springs, strategically located at the midway point. Sophie the owner is awesome and prepares delicious meals. And, nothing better than a hot soak after a 40 mile ride.
We saw very few others and dont think any were doing the full length. The trail is a mix of everything from a few paved sections to some areas that were a little muddy. Rocky seems most prevelent. Id say to do the full length, fat tires and minimum of weekend warrior level fitness are required.
Most upper section is evergreen type and then gets into open high desert type terrain for say the lower 80% of the trail. Summer riding in the exposed sun would seem pretty rough to me. The ten or so miles from the Presley Trailhead to Weiser were probably the least scenic, mostly farm fileds.
Saw a good bit of wildlife including a bear at a safe distance and some mountain sheep foraging on the side of a steep hill. While we were prepared for goatheads, none of us had a flat tire (thankfully).
This is a neat trail (underutilized) that folks should enjoy.
Rode this trail from Eagle all the way to Lucky Peak reservoir over 2 days in late September. A great experience overall. Suggestions would be for a bit better markings along the route, as the downtown areas can be a bit confusing and congested.
The only negative is a local weed called goatheads....nasty little things that resemble organic thumbtacks....flattened 3 of 4 tires late one afternoon. Advise you carry a tire pump!!
We rode this trail for the first time on the 4th of July starting from the east portal which starts at the tunnel and ending at Pearson. I am glad we got some tips as to the time difference, we were staying in Washington so we lost an hour but were still able to catch the shuttle. Helmets are required if you do not have one you will be required to rent one when you buy trail passes, $12. It is fairly steep, 3-5% grade. We hadn't planned to take the shuttle but were glad we did. The last shuttle is at 4, it is very easy to loose track of time and miss it. It took 4 hours to ride 13 miles, not that it was difficult, it was so beautiful that I kept stopping to enjoy the view and take pictures. I am sharing many of the photos I took, the views are indescribable. The trail is rocky and all downhill with many tunnels some long, some short. I wish we had more time to explore but we only had one day. Definitely a hall of fame trail that I plan to visit again.
We started our ride at Freeman Park on Science Center Drive and did an out-and-back ride for the entire trail.
The greenbelt guide that is available online is broken down into sections and is somewhat confusing. The trail is paved but the trail surface is a mixed bag. Some parts are narrow with tree roots protruding on the trail. Other sections, such as the east side of Memorial Loop, are wide and recently re-paved.
There is no signage at all. At some points, the trail crosses some major intersections such as the Pancheri Bridge and there was little thought given to how the cyclist might safely cross the busy street. The trail along the Sunnyside Extension passes through an industrial area. You can continue along the west side of the trail and cycle through the Snake River Landing Trails but, again, no signage as to how to get there.
This city is not cyclist friendly so you'll have to watch out for motorists who don't know how to behave around cyclists.
The section of the trail near downtown called Temple Loop and Memorial Loops are pretty and take you through parks along the Snake River. There is some nice artwork in the parks with plenty of green grass and places to sit and have a picnic.
Overall, I feel that this path is geared more for walkers. However, it is an interesting way to see a slice of downtown Idaho Falls that is quicker than walking.
My husband and I found this trail and really enjoyed this short walk.It is well-maintained and a pleasant time was had by both.
This Trail is great for the following reasons: 1-good for groups of all ages and skill level. 2-lotz of access points to service a group. we had 17 riders with me as support. i met them at several points along the way for repairs, lunch, snacks and hydration. 3. nature/scenery. 4-access at certain trail heads to parks, lakes, camping or city amenities.Ours was a boy scout troup + parents. our group did about 50 miles of this trail in a day. 5- mostly flat surfaces with trails in good shape.
This trail is very similar to the Iron Horse Trail near Easton, WA only even easier to ride. It is all a gentle down hill slope the entire distance. there are cold , damp and very dark tunnels. The longest is 2 miles so take a good bright light. The trail is in very good shape. it is gravel so road tires are at a bit of a disadvantage. Plenty of places to stop and enjoy the surroundings and picnic. There is a shuttle to take you back to the drop off point which makes it very convenient. Very worthy of your time. A great family outing.

Sorry, that's not how I meant it. I like referring to things with silly names (cf. Great Mixer Debate). It doesn't *mean* anything. If you want to know what I think, read what I say, and I've already said I like the new mixer design. I like PulseAudio, I like what Lennart's doing to revise audio support, I've been running the damn thing since it was called PolypAudio and I've been doing user support trying to improve it for years. At this very moment I am busy working on the tracker bug I filed with Lennart's help to try and track down as many volume bugs as possible, which is one of the things that needs to happen for the new mixer to be sufficient on its own. The typical problem of PulseAudio detractors is that they refuse to see any value in PulseAudio and advocate disabling it at the first possible opportunity, to everyone, for completely unrelated issues. On the *other* side, the typical problem of some in PulseAudio / GNOME is that they see enemies everywhere. I'm not an enemy. I'm not one of the people who's just here to bash Pulse at every possible opportunity. I'm trying to *help*, by removing what will otherwise become yet another "PulseAudio sucks!" issue in Fedora 11. Do you really want that? Do you *want* to release a Fedora 11 which gives more ammunition to the people who just say that anything we try to do to improve the audio infrastructure is broken? Can't we please just spike their guns so we can get something fricking productive done? > And frankly, if you can't see why it is dumb to have two entries > in the menu for controlling your sound and volume then well maybe we > shouldn't be listening to you. Please instead of making personal attacks on me, explain. I *know* it's not perfect UI, but perfect UI is not an almighty goal in and of itself, it is a part of a product, and the goal of the product is to make people happy by letting them do what they need to do. A 'good' UI which does not let the user do what they need to do with it is no use. A 'bad' UI which does is better. It's not perfect, but it's better. > Also, seems like a bad decision to > want to QA two entirely separate code paths for doing essentially the > same thing. I never said it was perfect, I said it was an improvement on the current situation. That does not require it not to have drawbacks. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

Add 100% discount optionAsked by cumberlandcss on October 21, 2013 at 03:04 PM
I really need to be able to let some customers order products, then have a coupon to make the whole order free - it's for a charity who subsidise some customers.
I've read many of the other support answers. 2 weeks ago, I tested with e.g. $300CAD discount on total orders of much less, and it worked well, reducing balance to zero, completing form submission without going to the paypal step.
Since then, you've implemented the 'discount for orders above' functionality. My 100% dicount fix no longer works. I can't use a text box prior to the payment form (as suggested elsewhere), as I need the results from the payment form to know what products the customer wants.
Surely, surely, 100% discount is an easy thing to implement?
JotForm Support
Thank you for contacting us.
Please apply your discount to the products instead of the order total. This should fix the issue.
Please feel free to contact us if you need any further assistance. We will be happy to help.
That's great - it does work - so it was nothing you changed, just that I tried to apply it in a different way this time.
Thanks very much, appreciate the help.
My coupon wizard does not look like that: I do not have the choice to chose order total, just products.

Will Patriots WR Chad Ochocinco put his money where his mouth is?
Patriots WR Chad Ochocinco said all the right things this year. He buried his ego. He was a good teammate. All he wanted to do was win.
Now, the mercurial receiver gets a chance to prove it.
According to a report by Liz Mullen of the Sports Business Journal, Ochocinco was asked to restructure his contract. If he doesn't, presumably, his days in New England are numbered.
The disappointing and previously entertaining pass-catcher is on the books for $3 million in each of the next two seasons. His signing bonus last year of $4.5 million would mean a salary cap hit of $1.5 million in 2012 and 2013 if he's released.
Ochocinco arrived with the great promise and said all the right things. Yet he had just 15 catches for 276 yards and a touchdown. Will he agree to a pay cut to stick around and win? Stay tuned...

The castle was more than once besieged in the time of Cromwell, and was taken by ireton in 1650.
Were not Cromwell and ireton accused by their own party of favouring the man Stuart?
He vowed, however, that ireton should publicly acknowledge his slanders, and beg her pardon.
The house in which ireton lived and died stood next to the cathedral.
I can learn but the marriage of one: ireton's daughter Bridget married a Mr. Bendyshe.
"This is no matter for merriment," exclaimed ireton sternly.
Juliet having again, but vainly, tried to pass by ireton, retired to an unoccupied window.
His dispatches smacked of the Calvinism of ireton and Cromwell.
The witness was often in ireton's company, and Peters would often come in to meals in the evening.
ireton declared that there was no such thing as natural right.

The tea tree (Melaleuca alternifolia) is a tree that grows along the swampy southeast Australian coastline. It was first discovered and named in modern times by 18th century sailors, who used to make a tea from its leaves. Since then, the oil derived from its leaves has been used to treat and cure a number of maladies. One of its most useful benefits is as an inexpensive and non-toxic tick repellent that can be used on both animals and humans.
Active Ingredients
Tea tree oil is derived from the leaves of the tree using steam distillation or a similar process. The two main ingredients found in tea tree oil are cineole and terinen-4-ol. The active ingredient is terinen-4-ol while cineole is considered an impurity. A quality oil has a high terinen-4-ol content and a low cineole content.
Tick Repellent
A tick repellent can be made for both animals and humans using tea tree oil as an active ingredient. Start with a 2:1 mixture of your favorite base oil, such as almond or jojoaba, and water. Combine this into a spray bottle with 2 oz. of tea tree oil. For best results, use a glass bottle. Oils such as tea tree oil react with plastic and may cause dangerous chemicals to leech into your repellent. Before each use, shake the bottle vigorously to thoroughly mix the oils. When applying to pets, rub the repellent under their fur so that it reaches their skin.
Tick Shampoo
While tick shampoo can be used for humans, it is typically an application reserved for pets. For every 2 oz. of your favorite pet shampoo, add 6 to 10 drops of tea tree essential oil. Thoroughly wash your pet's fur using this shampoo, paying special attention to hard-to-reach areas, such as under the tail, in their armpits and between their toes. Let the shampoo sit for about 10 minutes, or as long as you can get your furry friend to stand still. Then, thoroughly rinse the shampoo from its hair. Repeat once a day until you don't see anymore ticks.
Tick Collar
Tick collars help to keep ticks from latching onto your pet when it's out and about. To make a non-toxic tick collar using tea tree oil, start with a regular cloth or nylon collar. Next, make a mixture using 2 tbsp. of an oil such as almond oil and add 5 to 7 drops of tea tree oil. For smaller pets, such as cats, you can use a more dilute solution. Apply the oil mixture to the collar and let it soak in. Reapply the oil mixture twice a month or more often if needed.

by YAC Co-Chairs, Emily Cross-Barnet and Carrie DiGregorio
The youth of the church raised an important voting rights issue at the last Annual Meeting: the church is not currently including all voices in its decision making. So we, the Youth Adult Committee (composed of all the youth, all the youth advisors, and the DRE) have been debating and exploring with other members of the congregation what it would take to enfranchise members who have been through the Coming of Age process.
The committee has concluded that the following must be considered in decisions of youth voting rights:
• Unitarian Universalist Principles
• Church Constitution and Bylaws
• Congregational practice within Unitarian Universalism
• Coming of Age as religious formation and preparation for membership
• Legal matters
Our Unitarian Universalist Principles affirm that all members deserve a voice. The fifth Unitarian Universalist Principle states: "[We affirm] the right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large." In Religious Education classes and youth programs throughout Unitarian Universalism, we are taught that an important UU value is that all persons should have a vote about the things that concern them. Youth members of the congregation do not exist in a separate category from other members of the congregation. Everything that affects the congregation affects youth as well.
Our own bylaws prohibit age-based discrimination.
"Section 2. Non-Discrimination Clause. In concurrence with the bylaws of the Unitarian Universalist Association, we declare and affirm our special responsibility and that of our members to promote the full acceptance into membership and participation of persons in all of our activities and in the full range of human endeavor without regard to race, color, gender, gender identity or expression, physical or mental challenge, affectional or sexual orientation, age or national origin.â€
It is common practice in UU congregations for youth to have full-membership status, including voting rights.
In Maryland and throughout the country, many UU Congregations understand voting rights for youth to be part of our core values. Youth enfranchisement is an important tool in helping young people understand the responsibility of becoming an educated and thoughtful participant in democratic systems. UU Congregations of Annapolis, Rockville, River Road, and more all grant voting rights to youth.
Youth must be thoroughly prepared before becoming members. Before any youth would be allowed the right to be a voting member, they would have to complete the Coming of Age Program. This program is acknowledged by the UUA as the transition from youth to religious adulthood. It is designed for teens. The program involves weekly, two-hour meetings over the course of approximately 6 months as well as weekend retreats and service projects. Coming of Age participants work with adult leaders and with a spiritual mentor. Coming of Age helps youth discern for themselves what it means to be a Unitarian Universalist, individually and as part of the larger faith community. To complete Coming of Age, participants make a public faith statement to the entire church community. This program is far more extensive than the Beginners class that is required for new members 18 and over. (For more on the importance and value of Coming of Age please see the DLRE column elsewhere in this issue of the Beacon.)
In our research we have found no legal obstruction to giving a vote to church members under age 18. In the past there were members who were concerned that there may be legal implications of allowing minors to vote. We are not aware of any statute or case law that would indicate this. Many Maryland churches, including Unitarian Universalist congregations, allow youth under the age of 18 to vote.
Not every youth will choose to become a member of this congregation, but those who do care deeply about its well-being and take the right to vote very seriously. YAC members recognize being a voting member should be based on demonstrated commitment, responsibility, and maturity. In accordance with the importance of voting rights and the concerns expressed by some members of the congregation, our proposal holds youth who wish to become full voting members to an even higher standard than adult church members.
For more information about this issue, see our Frequently Asked Questions brochure, contact YAC co-chairs, Emily and Carrie, or attend our Informational meeting after worship on April 8. Be an informed voter!
Proposed addition to the church's constitution (in italics):
Article IV: Qualification to Vote
Members of the church who have completed the Coming of Age Program or who are eighteen years or older, have been members for the preceding three months, and who in addition, have either participated in the activities of the church or have made a recorded financial contribution to the church are eligible to vote at meetings of the congregation.

For Kids and Teens
Thanks for checking out my website! Since I've written books that are very different from each other, you might be:
- Someone interested in World War II or the Holocaust, or maybe you were assigned this book to read in class: Yellow Star.
- Someone who loves fun fiction, reading about twins, Aladdin Mix books, or is a fan of Julia DeVillers' other books (my co-author and twin sister): Trading Faces.
- Someone who is curious about Asperger's Syndrome or knows someone who has it or has it yourself, or likes teen books with a rock band, love story, and a quirky main character: Mindblind.
- Someone who likes everything royal, or wants to read about an ordinary girl who gets to have an extra-ordinary fairy tale experience: Cordially Uninvited.
No matter who you are, you are appreciated! Authors need readers, the world needs readers, and I need people like YOU to help me keep doing what I love.
Some thoughts about my books:
Yellow Star
My Aunt Sylvia (little "Sylvia") just visited from Maryland. She spent time with her older sister Dora (who lives about 30 miles away from me). It was great for my son to hang out with her and get to know her. She recently also traveled to Montreal to attend the Bat Mitzvah of one of her cousin Jack's ("Baby Isaac") grandchildren.
Sylvia doesn't go to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum very often anymore, as it is not so easy for her to go into the city of Washington D.C. She is in her 70s! But she looks great, laughs a lot, and she LOVES all the letters that have been sent to her from students around the world. (Maybe even you!) Anyway, she says "Hello, everyone!"
The Trading Faces Series

The main thing I want you to know – every person with Asperger's is different. Some, like my character Nathaniel (and my son, who was 8 when the book came out), are extremely intelligent. Others are average and many have trouble with schoolwork. Some are shy and others talk a LOT. Some are easier to be friends with. I hope you are able to see all their good qualities. Please, do not tease them or bully them. If you see or hear someone making fun of an Aspie, please do something. People do not ask to be born with Asperger's Syndrome, and they deserve to be treated kindly. There are many Aspies who do great things and are proud of who they are. I know I'm proud of my son, and I would not change him for anything.
If you like math and science and obsessively watch at least one "smart" TV show: YOU ARE A NATHANIEL
If you want to become the next "American Idol" and are creative and kind: YOU ARE A JESSA
If you don't take life too seriously and are loyal to your friends: YOU ARE A COOPER
If you are quiet, except when you're banging on your drum set: YOU ARE A LOGAN
If you love horses and love horses, and love horses: YOU ARE A MOLLY
If you are nice to people who are quirky, quiet, sometimes annoying, socially backward, or nerdy: YOU ARE A ROCKSTAR!!!!
What am I working on next?
I like to write serious books, then fun books, then serious, then fun... I'll let you know when there's more news about that! I'm also doing book signings and continuing my school visits. All good stuff!
Thanks again for stopping by! Happy reading!
- Jennifer

Canberra Capitals superstar Lauren Jackson this week warned fans not to expect her to be "Wonder Woman" in her slow but steady comeback from long term injury.
But the Capitals - and Australian Opals coach Brendan Joyce -would have been encouraged by the centre's improvement in Friday's 87-52 WNBL home win over West Coast Waves.
Looking far sharper with her shooting and movement up and down the court, the 33-year-old scored 15 points off 7-12 shooting in just 16 minutes of court time.
Needing to win to keep its finals hopes alive, Canberra (7-9) turned a 20-18 quarter-time deficit into a 47-31 half-time advantage and went on with the job in the second half.
The Capitals need to win at least five of their last six matches to make the playoffs, but Jackson is the ace in the pack and if she continues to improve, it's not beyond reach.
Canberra's defensive intensity after quarter-time was superb, the hosts keeping the Waves to just 32 points after the first break.
"Defensively we were tough tonight, particularly in the second and third quarters we played some great 'D'," Canberra coach Carrie Graf said..
"Loz [Jackson] had as many points as minutes and improved from last week. The more time she has she'll get better and better. She has more of a sense for us."
Jackson's infamous mid-range jumper was on song from the outset in her third game back, a strong sign she's growing in confidence at the right time.
"It's her trademark and it's hard to guard. I don't care who guards her, you can't defend that," Graf said.
"She played with more confidence tonight and she needed that. Each week she'll get more confidence in what we run and her own game. When her turnaround jumper is there, that's a really positive sign."
Canberra's strength, its front court, was dominant, WNBL Most Valuable Player candidate Abby Bishop racking up 21 points and 13 rebounds.
The forward scored 18 points in the first half, the Waves unable to guard the versatile 25-year-old minus injured inside presence Louella Tomlinson.
Aside from arguably league leaders Townsville, Canberra's front court of Jackson, Bishop and Talbot is the WNBL's most lethal on paper.
Bench forward Sam Norwood was also important, racking up 14 boards to help give Bishop and Jackson a breather.
Bishop said Jackson's presence has eased the significant workload she's been forced to shoulder in her absence.
"It's been great having her back, I can take a back seat," Bishop said.
"I still feel like I'm doing what I was before, but there's not as much pressure on me to get every rebound and be the go-to scorer."
Canberra next plays Sydney at home on Thursday night.
CANBERRA CAPITALS 87 (Abby Bishop 21, Lauren Jackson 15, Jess Bibby 10) bt WEST COAST WAVES 52 (Lindsey Moore 15, Deanna Smith 14) at AIS Arena on Friday night. Crowd: 913.

Paging Eric Holder: Crimea has racist voter ID laws too?
Filed Under Politics, World News | 42 Comments
It's voting day in Crimea, and people there who cast a ballot will vote to either A) Secede from Ukraine and re-join Russia, or B) Succeed and become an independent entity. An option to stay with Ukraine (status quo) isn't even on the ballot.
The U.S. and other European countries are considering the vote illegal either way, and here's something sure to get Obama's Justice Department in a twist:
Caption: Local residents, including a police officer, show identification to get their ballots from election commission members in Simferopol.
Paging Eric Holder!
To all pro-Russian referendum backers in Crimea, this is the day where you can welcome the past pic.twitter.com/4wjHT6c5X5

It's a good thing Obama put Romney in his place about Russia during the presidential campaign.

Succeed? Do you mean succeed in seceding? Hate to nitpick, but as a resident of the first state to secede from the Union, that's a spelling error that jumps out at me. We even have a lake named Secession.
So, what's up with the voter ID requirement? Don't you believe me when I tell you that I am me?

Natch. Proving all Sewshallists think alike. Presenting voters w/ false options, differing only in degree of expanded gov. control. Even as O'Scare accelerates into oblivion, salvaging every aspect or feature that relinquishes individual freedom remains paramount.

Weird events cropping up in the news cycle, the CEO of Tesla ( faux electric car mfr. ) getting all ( gawd how I've waited to say this ) "butt-hurt" over states blocking direct sales to consumers. ( Still believe in having *government* Picking Winners & Losers Mr. CEO..? )
"If you believe [the consumer protection idea], Gov. Christie has a bridge closure he wants to sell you," wrote Musk," Um.., where was all the vocal indignation from the medical DEVICE industry when Obama essentially Shut.Them.DOWN? Okay, whatever!
And [sadly] another fatality of Michelle Obama's fashion inner circle. L'Wren Scott fashion designer to celebs, including the FLOTUS, committed suicide. The fact she was dating Mick Jagger probably had more to do w/ it BUT, for whatever reason, the fatalities around her keep piling up…

The CaféPod Origins Pack contains 200 of our single origin lungo coffee capsules, including:
Origins: Sumatra (50 capsules)Origins: Colombia (50 capsules)Origins: Guatemala (50 capsules)Origins: Ethiopia (50 capsules)
CafePod offer a good coffee alternative for Nespresso machine owners. Not quite the range as Nespresso themselves but good well rounded flavours with none of the issues other compatibles have in relation to poorly constructed pods. Only ever had 1 pod which did not pierce which is significantly less than that I've had with the original pods. The origins range are particularly nice akin to the Taylor's of Harrogate coffees. So for a 15-20% saving over original pods give CafePod a try you'll be pleasantly surprised.

To read part one of this interview, click here
OaklandClubhouse: Jesus Zambrano is the youngest pitcher pitching for an A's US affiliate this season. How has he handled the jump from the Dominican Academy to the States?
Scott Emerson: I think he's done a great job. He's 17 years old. He's pitching against professional athletes that are probably two years older than him – maybe even three – on an consistent basis. This guy would be going into his senior year of high school next year and he already has two years of professional baseball.
He's got one of the better deliveries in the system. He's got a feel for a good curveball, a change-up and his fastball is in the upper-80s right now. You are hoping by the time he is 20, in three years, it's low-90s, which it probably should be. I just think the kid has handled himself in such a good way at 17. I look at myself at 17 and I think, dang, I was going into my senior year of high school and playing high school ball. This guy is a two-year professional.
He's had a couple of rough ones, but he has had a couple of great ones, as well. He's handled it perfectly. His mental approach is perfect.
OC: Do you think it is beneficial for guys coming over from the Dominican Academy to spend a whole year in Arizona [extended through the AZL and then Instructs] rather than going out to an affiliate and having to learn two different places to live in the same year?
SE: I think it is good for him. One, the coaches in Arizona pick the players up. Two, the clubhouse guys bring the players home at night. We have vans running from their apartments to the field. They are teaching them how to pay rent. There is a lot more that goes into the Arizona complex that people probably don't really know. There are English classes going on. When they move out and go to Vermont or Beloit, they have to be men. It's on. It's like, 'this is the dishwasher. You have to put your dishes in there to get them clean.' I'm probably a guilty one, too. I would hate to go into my apartment now from when I played.
I think it is a good spot for him to mature and have someone monitor him a little bit.
OC: Bobby Wahl has pitched very well since moving to the bullpen. What do you think has clicked for him that he was struggling to find as a starter?
SE: One thing with Bobby is that he is a faced-paced guy with his mechanics. Sometimes for him, waiting around for five days to face batters can get frustrating. I think he's a guy who needs to get on the field more often to get it to click for him. For him hopefully getting more appearances within a two-week span than three starts helps. He just needs to get out there. He has that aggressive fastball approach.
I try to tell him that we aren't linebackers; we're pitchers. We are trying to take that little bit of a linebacker attitude out of him and have him be a pitcher. But he's a great student, a great kid. He has electric stuff. I think the bullpen is a good route for him. When it clicks for him, I have no doubt he will move through the system fast.
OC: Dylan Covey was recently promoted to Stockton. What have you seen from him in his first full year? Do you like what you have seen so far?
SE: We are challenging him a little bit more right now in the California League. You know how that league can go. It can be tough on pitchers. He did a good job in the Midwest League. He mixes up his three pitches really well. He has a very good sinking fastball, which we really didn't see much of last year. He threw a lot of four-seamers and his velocity was 93-94. Now he is throwing more two-seamers and he is generally sitting a few MPHs lower, but we know he still has that 94-95 in him.
But his change-up has been very good and he's got a good curveball. The guy has good stuff. It's all about him maturing as a pitcher and learning what he needs to do against these advanced hitters. That sinker is outstanding, but I try to remind him that we would rather have him be a power pitcher with a sinker than just a sinkerballer.
OC: How much does he get to decide what he is throwing when he is on the mound? Is it the catcher calling the game, the pitching coach/manager, or is he dictating what he wants to throw?
SE: Like anybody else, we try to preach to our pitchers that we want them to be major-league pitchers, not minor-league throwers. I have challenged the pitching coaches. I want them to be major-league pitching coaches. We try to tell ourselves that we are all major-league pitching coaches but we are doing what we are doing. That being said, I want these guys to game-plan. I want them to have a scouting report on every pitcher that we are facing. I think that is an advantage.
You know what the hitters are trying to do against you and you should know what you want to do against your opponent. They go out and they have a game plan and they work off of that game plan. Covey has much say in his game plan as we can give him and then the catchers go out there and try to help him along with the pitching coach in terms of what he should be throwing to each hitter and why. They then go off with it and do the best they can to stick to the game plan.
OC: Earlier this year, you talked about Kyle Finnegan and his work on improving his mechanics. How has he been doing in that respect?
SE: Yeah, he's done a great job. He's a guy that came to us last year with no change-up and an okay breaking ball and both of those two pitches have improved greatly. He even made a comment one time that he feels like he's a pitcher now and not a thrower. That's what we are trying to do, to get these guys to be pitchers and not throwers. He's got a great ability to throw a change-up in a fastball count. He's got the ability to throw his curveball early and late in the count. Early for a strike and maybe late in the count for a chase strike. He's done a great job just going out there and competing and pitching.
OC: There hasn't been a more consistent pitcher in the A's system this year than Seth Streich. Does he remind you of anybody you've seen before in terms of the way that he throws? [NOTE: Streich left his start Tuesday evening with an undisclosed injury after this interview had taken place]
SE: I thought about that the other day, like 'who is Streich?' I kind of have a little comparison to [Zack] Greinke. He's just a solid strike-thrower who competes and he pitches inside. He has a developing breaking ball that's been good all season. His change-up has life in the 'zone. It kind of has a life of its own. Sometimes it will cut. Sometimes it will sink. Sometimes that's good, as long as it can stay in the bottom of the strike-zone.
He's been very consistent, and that's what you want. Any time a guy takes the mound and you know what you are getting out of this guy on a consistent basis, that's what big league manager's, I would think, would want. This guy is going to give us a chance to win tonight. And that's what he's done all season.
OC: Chris Lamb has been a nice addition to that Stockton rotation. He's made a lot of improvements this season. Was it a matter of him getting healthy, or were there specific adjustments that he made that allowed him to succeed this year?
SE: We really tried to get him to quiet down his delivery just a tad. He'd fly off the ball. Craig Lefferts [Beloit pitching coach] and him really worked early in the season on keeping that front side from flying open. Like I was telling you earlier, you fly open, hitters see the ball that tad bit longer. It's not like we didn't know he had this good stuff before. He's had this good stuff for years. But you fly open, you expose the ball, hitters get an advantage, plus it's hard to control your pitches when you are not working in a straight line.
Now he's staying on his pitch longer. He's hiding it longer. His pitches are in the 'zone better. He's done a great job. He has really good stuff. He can make it move. He's got a very good split-fingered fastball. He's tough to pick up. He kind of has a little funky delivery. He's had a great season.
Stay tuned for part three of this Q&A, during which we cover several pitchers in the Double-A and Triple-A levels.

Erien - The High King's Island is the name given to one of the Giant's Teeth islands in Jonathan Green's Map of Frostholm, which accompanied the description of the unpublished Fighting Fantasy gamebook, Saga of the Stormchaser.[1]
Since the name Erien only occurs in this unpublished source, it perhaps ought not to be considered canon in the same way as names which appeared in published sources.
This reference to The High King gives us an intriguing insight into the political structure of the little-known land of Frostholm.

Rapini Zamboni Broccoli - Heirloom Vegetable - Brassica oleracea - 30 Seeds
Seeds for Africa
Zamboni raab also known as rapini has small delicate leaves, stems, and buds, and a flavour slightly on the "wild" side. Zamboni broccoli seeds plants are approximately 52cm tall and do not produce a central head but abundant side shoots which must be kept picked. Early and productive, plant Zamboni in succession from early spring into summer for salads and stir-fries. This heirloom is easy to grow and so productive that it really pays its own way.

This is a nice vintage bracelet, made of sterling silver with pale amethyst gemstones.
Each of the five links is made like a flower with the stone in the center and ornate overlay silver bead and scroll work around.
The bracelet measures 7 inches long by 5/8 inch wide. The back is marked 925 with a maker's mark that might be CE. The bracelet weighs 24.8 grams. It has not been polished so there's a bit of age tarnish in the recesses...easily polished out but some like the patina left as is. We think the clasp has been replaced. The bracelet is circa 1960s...in excellent vintage condition. The stones are all intact with no nicks to the surface.

Monday, Jan 17 is D-Day for the Indian World Cup squad. India's selection committee will announce the country's pruned-down 15-member squad for the mega-event which is scheduled to begin on Fb 19. As the date of the big decision nears, speculation has been soaring over who are the players that will make the final cut.
Going down the line-up, Gautam Gambhir and Virender Sehwag are a pretty straight forward choice for the opening pair. Enough can not be said about their exploits at the top of the order, although they last opened togethr only in the Asia Cup in June, 2010. The two have been battling injuries for much of the last few months and the uncertainly of their sustainability spawns the necessity of a back-up opener.
Murali Vijay might fit the bill, but he only possess an average of 19.88 with a less-than-impressive strike rate of 64.62. He therefore, could be edged out by Parthiv Patel, who scored two-back-back fifties in India's ODI series against New Zealand. Shikhar Dhawan and Dinesh karthik, who are the other contenders for the opener's slot, don't appear to have much of shot.
Meanwhile, the in-form Virat Kohli, Sachin Tendulkar and Suresh Raina are certainties for the middle-order positions, with Yuvraj Singh likely to dual it out with Saurabh Tiwary while Yusuf Pathan would most likely take on Rohit Sharma in a toss up.
Harbhajan's position as an off-spinning allrounder is definite, while Ami Mishra will find himself up against Piyush Chawla and Pragyan Ojha for the other's spinner's slot. However, Ojha has a considerable edge over the former two simply by virtue of the fact he has played for India more consistently in recent times.
Wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha seems likely to lose out to Parthiv Patel as the back-up gloveman's option as Patel also carries his experience as opener to back up his chances.
Finally, in the fast bowler's category, Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra and Sreesanth appear to have the firmest chances of making the cut, while it will be a toss-up between Munaf Patel and Praveen Kumar for the fourth seamer's position, as Ishant is likely to overlooked.
So thatsCricket's predictions for the World Cup 15 is as follows -
Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, Parthiv Patel, Virat Kohli, Sachin Tendulkar, Suresh Raina, Yuvraj Singh,Yusuf Pathan, Rohit Sharma, Harbhajan Singh, Pragyan Ojha, Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra, S Sreesanth, Praveen Kumar
The World Cup is to be held in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh from February 19-April 2. India are placed in Group B in the preliminary phase along with co-hosts Bangladesh, England, South Africa, West Indies, Ireland and Netherlands. India and Bangladesh will kick off the tournament in the latter's backyard - at the Sher-E-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.

About six years ago the basketball argument of this decade was started: Who's better, Kobe Bryant or LeBron James? Since then, we haven't looked back at the past unless it was to take a glimpse of who these two were compared to: the greatest of all time, Michael Jordan. This argument cannot be started until we look at the full grasp of Jordan.
I'm not going to the history books to research information on Jordan. My childhood have been catered to knowing everything about him. So for, every person out there questioning my sports knowledge just gave up. I grew up on sports. Come along for the ride.
Michael Jordan was born in Brooklyn, but moved to North Carolina in his youth. His first sports love would be America's past time (baseball), but he turned to basketball. There were times when people said he was too small to play so he didn't make the varsity team. He went to work. He came back to make the varsity squad and his career would lead him to play in the famed Carolina blue uniform. From there, he became a Bull.
I could close my eyes and hear the Bulls' theme in the United Center. Turn the lights out. Increase the fog. Where's my flashing lights? Playing guard, #23, from the University of North Carolina, Michaaaaeeel Jorrrrrdan!
It was greatness. In time, he would win numerous MVP titles, scoring titles, Championship rings and be an Olympian. The numbers mattered but it didn't matter.
I could rally his stats off like I was a talking encyclopedia, but an encyclopedia is pointless. Simple numerical facts are irrelevant. They don't, they cannot, tell how he played.
Jordan played with a desire to not only be the best, but to make everyone around him better. He never gave up. He was the epitome of a classy teammate and player. He was the Greg Maddux of basketball, graceful. Almost every game was a highlight reel, but in this highlight reel you could see a Pippen, a Kukoc, a Kerr. Michael Jordan was "The Air" and we are still not sure how many people can reach that height of greatness.
As I digressed into pure happiness as I walked down memory lane, I must come back to the argument because neither will touch The Air: the Black Mamba or King James...
Individual stats, team stats, MVP awards, and All-star appearances are all numbers that indicate their greatness. In fact, presently, King James is leading. He's better than Kobe Bryant.
Somehow, I'm still not bowing down to the NBA King. I simply don't buy into him yet, but numerically I'm wrong. Surprisingly for a person who likes to be right, I'm okay with stepping away from the numbers and being wrong.
I know that through any amount of time, through any games that I have played there is a stat that I realize the most. Who's missing from a team when I lose? What was different from the time I lost and the time I won?
Fact: Kobe's cast is said to be better. Lakers' record: 65-17.
Fact: LeBron's cast helped lead the Cavaliers to the best record in the NBA, 66-16. Fact: LeBron has a better shooting percentage. Fact: LeBron is the MVP. Fact: LeBron has passed Kobe. Fiction: LeBron is better than Kobe.
If I had Kobe and LeBron on the same team and I had to take one of them away to win the game, I wouldn't take Kobe out. He's the one that will make the game winning shot. He is the intangible that can't be thrown away. LeBron is no trash, far from it. But as in the Olympics, Kobe proved that there is something more that he brings to a team and the game.
LeBron tried to do this without Kobe in 2004. The results were horrible and led to the 2008 cast being called the Redeem Team. Our Olympic basketball is composed of nothing but superstars. So why couldn't LeBron and Company win?
They played too long of a season. They didn't have much preparation as a team. The world was catching up. Blah, blah, blah... these are excuses that shouldn't be made. America not winning a gold medal in basketball is like a long distance runner from any African country not winning a long distance race.
I believe that Kobe is the person from the game that could be filtered in to be the reason why they won. Kobe offers something that is a must. He offers a team the right to be the last one standing. That's the only stat that means something. When you go to battle which team is left standing and who is the captain of that team.
I'm tired of hearing the supporting cast argument because they were good enough in the regular season.
It's as simple as this: if I had to be the captain on a pick up game of 5 on 5 my first selection would be the Black Mamba. I guarantee, not the Mo Williams' type of guarantee but the Babe pointing to center field guarantee, that my team with Kobe Bryant will win.
In the end, the Black Mamba and King James are two NBA greats that have been pitted against each other for a lifetime. They can't outlive the stats or the hype that they have both helped to create. Yet, in the end, we still may not know who is better.
Truthfully, the greatness of a player is beyond his individual stats. His greatness lies in how a fan will perceive him. Perception is everything; it is the key to a player's legacy. So when all is said and done, I believe Kobe will be the greater player.
It's not because I hate King James. I respect his game. It's as simple as this: Kobe is my cup of tea. He's the player that I prefer to lead my team to the next level. I'll keep sipping on that tea until it is no longer viable. I'll respect anyone's decision to sip on a different brand of tea.

October, 21st. The sweater Super Junior's Ryeowook wore for Sukira melted everyone's hearts. A red, cute knit with a Mickey Mouse print. An adorable garment worn by an adorable man.
November, 11th. Almost a month later, U-Kiss's Kiseop uploaded two pictures on his Twitter account, with a message for his followers celebrating Pepero Day, wearing… yes, the VERY same sweater. By the way, that gwiyomi is the perfect match, isn't it?
This charming Mickey Mouse knit is part of the WHOLEHAUSS winter collection and can be found on Lotte Duty Free's website ($105). Deciding who wore it better is a complex process consisting of: looking at Ryeowook, sighing, thinking "He wore it better," then looking at Kiseop, sighing, thinking "No, he wore it better," then looking at Ryeowook again… Undoubtedly, it is a tie.
Let us know who you think wore this sweater the best!

|Seppun Murayasu
|Died after return:
Seppun Murayasu was an old veteran warrior who lived in Otosan Uchi. [1]
He was poor, and had occasionally sold his services with the sword for money in his past. Though not of a very noble line he was still samurai and served at a small post far from the Emperor's palace. He would stand at his post as if it were the greatest honor in the world, and would walk the city with his head held high and all spoke highly of his loyalty. Shosuro Furuyari intended to ruin Murayasu for his pride, and arranged for the Seppun to meet with the Bayushi Daimyo. In truth it was Furuyari he would meet, and behind a screen the Emperor of Rokugan sat and listened. Furuyari attempted to purchase Murayasu's service with a hundred koku, but Murayasu declined. Furuyari asked him to tell him his secrets, and a hundred men a women would be under his command and he would received a place of honor in his personal guard. Murayasu declined agian, as he could not betray his master. Furuyari asked him who he serves and Murayasu replied he served the Emperor. Furuyari mocked Murayasu, claiming the Emperor did not even know his name. Murayasu said the Emperor did not have to know his name for him to serve loyally. The Emperor, upon hearing these words, brought Murayasu to the Imperial Palace to live his last days in loyal service to the Imperial Line.[2]
"Though the Emperor does not know of me, still, I know of him. And it is the Emperor, and Hantei alone, that I follow. With every word and deed, I do his bidding."

Enjoy frequent sightings of deer & wild turkey while relaxing on the porch swings, or hiking the nearby Benton MacKay Trail. The property is located on 2.5+ acres.
Antler Ridge Hideaway Cabin: The cabin is a true log cabin, located near the top of Laurel Ridge Mountain (3,000 elevation) in Blue Ridge, Georgia. The views you see in photos are indeed the view from both porches and decks, hot tub and all interior rooms except the twin bed bedroom. The upper level of the cabin has the deck with seating areas, screened porch with swing and rockers, living and dining area, fireplace, wide screened TV, kitchen, bedroom #1 with two twin beds, full bathroom and bedroom #2 with queen bed & TV.
The lower level of the cabin has the game area with pool and air hockey table, treadmill, laundry room with washer/dryer, another family sitting area with queen sleeper sofa with box spring mattress (sleeping area #3), gas log fire place, wide screen TV, X-Box 360 Elite HD with games and controllers, master bedroom #4 with king sized bed and master bathroom.

The cabin is on 2.5 + acres, secluded and has mountain views of Rich Mountain and uninhabited national forest lands. It is not in a gated community, nor do you have close neighbors (YOU DO NOT SEE OTHER CABINS FROM OUR CABIN). There is no cabin to our left. The cabin to our right is several acres away and over a hill. You have over 50 acres of "no neighbors". You do not see the road from our cabin, yet you do not feel totally isolated. Unlike may cabins near the top of a mountain, the Hideaway has plenty of level land for children, pets and family to walk around, run and play with no sudden drop offs.
We had an amazing time visiting Georgia and staying at your cabin. All of our friends and co-workers will hear about the fun we had. The extra attention given to details and the cleanliness of the cabins( rented both of our cabins) made it feel like a cozy home. We enjoyed the barbecue and smoker! Thanks for having the extra odds & ends already supplied. There were elk and deer who came to visit every morning.We enjoyed lounging in the hot tub. We went horseback riding, rafting and the people in town were nice and friendly. We loved sitting around the campfire, the early morning sunrises and beautiful sunsets!
The house was everything the ad says it is and more. The view of the mountains is breathtaking. The house is secluded on the side of the mountain which makes for a romantic getaway. Very clean and included nice amenities such as a Hot Tub!, flat screen HDTV, gas grill, pool table, which we all used!
The cabin is very close to a lot of good hiking and waterfalls. This is a great place for a romantic peaceful weekend or for the adventure seeker.
The cabin was all as expected and more. It was truly a beautiful "Hideaway" and provided all amentities needed for a beautiful cabin experience.
Sandy was a most gracious host and truly lovely and helpful person. I would definitively recommend this cabin and would love to stay again. Our dogs were accepted and were able to walk the nearby areas. The sunrises were beautiful as you sat,on either the lower or upper decks. We actually saw some deer and one pheasant/ turkey. We would most welcome the opportunity to stay at "Antler Ridge Hideaway" again the next time we travel to the area. Thank you Sandy and Al!
The cabin was clean, the decor was just what you would want in a cabin getaway. The beds were a little firm to me but I slept like a rock every night and was well rested each morning.The kitchen was well equipped with newer appliances and a deep sink that was really nice.The gas grill was a high end grill that was in perfect working order. We grilled fish and steaks on 3 different nights. The decks. I can't say enough about the decks! One was screened in and the others were big and open. 2 swings , 1 glider, about 8 or so rockers and a nice table with 4 chairs that rocked also.If you can't enjoy the outdoors at this cabin there is something wrong with you! The view was the icing on the cake ! Just couldn't get enough of it . The pictures do not do it justice. Private setting with a great view of the mountains...it just doesn't get any better. Sandy, the owner, was very helpful and a pleasure to work with. She sent several e-mails that were very informative about the area and area attractions.From places to eat to hiking trails and everything in between.You definitely will not run out of things to do! We had a great escape and will for sure be coming back ! Thanks Sandy for alloying us to use your cabin and for your hospitality !
The cabin was clean, and cozy! The view was amazing, with huge deck. The driveway is narrow, so be prepared to reverse down drive way, at least if you drive a large vehicle (f250) like us. If you are elderly, or have bad knees you may not like the staircase going down stairs, but it didn't bother my husband and I. Overall happy with the stay!
The wife and I stayed here for a few nights and had a wonderful time.. I would go again in a heartbeat!
Perfect cabin, perfect view. Love the deck, the pool table. Such a wonderful, relaxing week. And so much to do and see nearby. Will recommend to all my friends.
Located near the top of Laurel Ridge Mountain in Blue Ridge,Georgia. Conveniently located an hour from Atlanta. When not just resting and relaxing, enjoy hiking the 'steps away' Benton MacKaye Trail, whitewater rafting, scenic horseback rides, hiking the many nearby mountain trails, boating on Lake Blue Ridge, fly fishing, Amicaloa Falls, the Appalachian Trail and the many local art and antique shops in the pet friendly communities.

First thing just take a look at the Partition interface in the partition package. You'll have to implement this for your EIS application. Best thing to do might be to first stub out all the methods and set things up so you can just read a simple entry after installing the partition into the server. Then you can move on to start building up your solution. Regards, Alex

Wielun Vacation Packages
Wielun is situated 130 miles (209 kilometers) southwest of Warsaw, the country's capital, and approximately 65 miles (105 kilometers) east of Wroclaw.
Greater Poland is firmly established on the tourist trail, which means getting around is a breeze. Make sure you give yourself sufficient time to discover the many scenic and cultural wonders the region has to offer. Kluczbork, lays 25 miles (40 kilometers) to the northeast, while Olesno sits 25 miles (40 kilometers) to the north.
Approximately 65 miles (105 kilometers) to the west of Wielun is Wroclaw, an important regional city and the home of Centennial Hall, St. Elisabeth's Church and Wroclaw Technology Park. Should you have the time, why not stop by Wspolczesny Theatre, Wroclaw University of Technology and Wroclaw University before heading back to Wielun.
If you're looking for indoor entertainment, you can't better Greater Poland 's history museums, art museums and craft workshops. These are good places to learn a little about the local culture and find a unique souvenir. To really understand the present, you need to step back into earlier times. Greater Poland 's colorful historic palaces are a great starting point.
Explore a side of the region many visitors will never see by joining a knowledgeable local on one of the guided nature walks, city walking tours and cycling tours. Relax like the locals in Greater Poland. Try wildlife watching and cycling while you are in the area.
When the time comes to leave Wielun, put the lens cap back on your camera, spend your last of your zloties on last-minute souvenirs, and bid a fond Narazie (farewell) to this spectactular spot.

And while I don't have any food budget at all, I buy what I want when I want it (including the ridiculously priced organic Honey Crisp apples that just came in season)... I also pick up bargains like when I see an orgainic grassfed lamb shank marked down I snag it! Or when I talk the butcher into reserving me some beef knuckles at no charge... because he usually only sells marrow bones.
And I really think that over all we spend way LESS money because we don't but any packaged/processed junk at all.
Everything is fresh vegetables, meats, fruits... a bit of rice.
Even if you are getting premium grassfed organic meat all the time there are the co-ops and cow shares where it's really not that much more expensive than the price of conventional meat from the grocery store unless you only shop loss leader sales like an absolute hawk.
And guess what... We just eat less food too. We want to eat less.
We don't want to sit and stuff our faces with those snacky processed foods.
I'm pretty sure it doesn't take a genius to figure out that value wise whole foods offer a better weight and volume/$ value that processed foods do... the old potatoes/$ vs chips/$
Paying a little more for good meat... I'm saving that money elsewhere anyway IMO.
