An aspiring model and singer from Detroit is accused of murder in Georgia. Skyy Mims, 21, was arrested Tuesday in Bartow County, Ga. She has since been charged with murder after a gas station clerk was found stabbed to death in Dalton, Ga. Police say Mark Rogers found the 37-year-old victim, Dahyabhai Chaudhari, dead on the floor Sunday. In an interview, Rogers said he found Chaudhari body with its mouth and eyes duct-taped shut.Whitfield County sheriff's Capt. Rick Swiney said Mims tried to run when officers moved in on the home in Cartersville, Ga. she was found at, but she was apprehended quickly.Jail records show that Mims, whose last known address is Detroit, was jailed on a murder charge. Jail records do not indicate whether she has an attorney.Investigators tell an Atlanta newspaper Mims was allegedly driving a car stolen from Michigan. Those in the Detroit hip-hop community tell FOX 2's Ron Savage they can't believe she could be involved in a situation like this.

Safety Projects require changes to the Runway 16-34 Runway Safety Areas (RSA) as the RSA's on both ends of the runway do not meet current FAA design standards. Hangar 1, which was located within the Runway 16 Object Free Area (OFA) and penetrated the protected air space surface was recently demolished..
The lengthening of Runway 5-23 falls into the category of an efficiency project. The length of Runway 5-23 is inadequate to accommodate coast to coast and international flights. Lengthening the runway will further enhance the efficiency of the New England Regional Airport System since studies have concluded that a runway length of 8,700 feet will meet long term business needs.
Following is an overview of the projects currently underway, as well information on other projects included in the improvement program.
Runway 16 End Safety Improvements
Project construction began on July 29, 2013. This project will include the assembly of an Engineered Materials Arrestor System (EMAS) Runway Safety Area, installation of a new blast fence, drainage improvements, security fencing, miscellaneous improvements to navigational aids (NAVAIDs), and reconfiguration of a taxi lane to meet current FAA standards.
To date, the utility connections have been expanded, earthwork has commenced, and parts of the permanent security fence are beginning to be installed. While work is occurring, this runway is closed with reopening planned for the pre-Thanksgiving travel period. Construction will break for the winter and begin again in the spring with construction of this portion of the project expected to be completed in late spring or summer 2014.
The total project cost is $8,427,000.
Program Manager: AECOM, Providence, RI
Project Designer: McFarland Johnson, Concord NH and AECOM, Providence, RI
General Contractor: J.H. Lynch, Cumberland, RI
Hangar 1 Demolition
This project is well underway. The demolition of Hangar 1 includes not only demolition of the hangar, which was constructed in 1938, but also the replacement of existing impervious areas with turf, installation of a security fence, the realignment of an airport service road and replacement of aircraft tie downs. Prior to the project construction, RIAC coordinated closely with the Rhode Island State Historic Preservation Office to document the historic significance of Hangar 1, which will be on display in the airport and on the web at a later day.
RIAC was able to successfully salvage the sandstone "Anchor" fascia detailing from the hangar and intends to repurpose this beautiful artifact at the site of the new Winslow Park recreational facility.
The project construction began on July 29, 2013 and is expected to be completed by the end of December 2013.
The total project cost is $1,413,000.
Program Manager: AECOM, Providence, RI
Project Designer: AECOM, Providence, RI
General Contractor: Cardi Corporation, Warwick, RI
Demolition Subcontractor: Vinagro, Johnston, RI
Runway 34 End Safety Improvements
The project includes the construction of an Engineered Materials Arrestor System (EMAS) Runway Safety Area, reconstruction of approximately 1,650-feet of Runway 16-34, miscellaneous NAVAID improvements, and construction of drainage improvements. The project is in the design stage and is approximately 75% complete. Bids will be received in spring 2014 and construction will take two seasons. The construction is expected to be completed in fall 2015.
Program Manager: AECOM, Providence, RI
Project Designer: Jacobs Engineering, Providence, RI, VHB of Watertown, MA, AECOM, of Providence, RI and McFarland Johnson, of Concord NH
General Contractor: To Be Determined at Bid Phase
Winslow Park Ball Fields Relocation
The project design began in early May 2013 is approximately 50% complete. The project elements include the construction of 4 regulation soft ball fields, 2 practice soft ball fields, 3 soccer fields, walking trails, and a new concession stand. Additionally the project includes a state-of-the art Tot Lot to replace the existing one being demolished by the relocation of Main Avenue.
The project is expected to be out for bids in spring 2014 and the construction complete by the end of June 2015.
Program Manager: AECOM, Providence, RI
Project Designer: The Louis Berger Group, Providence, RI and LDD Collaborative, Fall River, MA
General Contractor: To Be Determined at Bid Phase
Main Avenue Relocation
The project, necessary for the extension of Runway 5, began in late 2012 with a study to determine the alignment and properties that would ultimately be required to accommodate the project. The alignment was approved by RIDOT in early September 2013. The project will consist of property acquisition, demolition, design of roadway elements (paving, drainage, utility relocations, and traffic signals). The final design of the project will begin in early October, 2013 and is expected to be out for construction bids in spring 2015. Construction is expected to begin in mid-June 2015 and take approximately one year to complete.
Program Manager: AECOM, Providence, RI
Project Designer: Gordon R. Archibald, Inc., Pawtucket, RI
General Contractor: To Be Determined at Bid Phase
Runway 5 Extension
The project will provide for a 1,534-foot extension to the primary Runway 5-23 at T. F. Green, bringing its total length to 8,700-feet. Included in the project is the construction of a taxiway extension, an aircraft holding apron, an EMAS Runway Safety Area, an airport service road and security fencing. At the completion of the project the airport will accommodate airline service that will reduce passenger leakage to other regional airports and enhance the efficiency of the New England Regional Airport System. The project is in the Design consultant selection phase. Proposals were received by RIAC on September 18, 2013. Design of the project is expected to commence in early February 2014. The project bids will be received in April 2016 and construction will start in early summer 2016. Project completion is anticipated for December 7, 2017.

Montana State University and the Parent Family Association will help get the Warming Center ready to open its door for the season. The Warming Center offers a warm, safe place to stay for those in need during the winter months. On Saturday, volunteers will clean, organize and maintain the property. They will be cleaning windows, doing door trim work and organizing the bunk beds at the Warming Center from 9 to 11 a.m.
Sara Savage with the Human Resource Development Council said people donating time or funds, all help the Warming Center open on time. "The Warming Center is entirely funded by community's support. It's the only way we are able to get our doors open and make sure folks have a place to get out of the cold, "said Savage. So far, the Warming Center has raised $30,000 of their $50,000 goal.

Great little Car. by An MSN Autos Consumer on 04/17/2006. Trim: 1989 Nissan Sentra Sedan, Owned more than 10 years.
Pros: I bought this car new in 1989. I just passed 305,000 miles on it and it still starts and runs like the day I bought it. It still screeches tires comming of a red light. Parts are dirt cheap and it is easy to work on. Brake roters are $17.00, pads are $19.00, cv joints are $49, lifetime spark plug wires $14.00. I maintain the car myself.
Cons: It's no Mercades
Overall review: Great litte car, Impossible to kill it.
Review ID: #490383 Is this review offensive?
89 Sentras are reliable by JHB from Bellingham, WA on 05/22/2004. Trim: 1989 Nissan Sentra Sedan, Owned more than 10 years.
Pros: Extremely reliable. Good quality. 30mpg averaged year round. I like the fact that the engine has a timing chain; not a timing belt.
Cons: Watch the spark plug cables. If they arc to the engine block, replace them. Also, front disk brake pads tend to wear out kinda fast. Thermostat was a bit temperamental.
Overall review: Excellent car. I'll keep it till it dies, then I'll get another one. I drove across the US four times with it. Once with my dog.
Review ID: #430347 Is this review offensive?
Nissian by An MSN Autos Consumer on 05/12/2004. Trim: 1989 Nissan Sentra XE, Owned more than 10 years.
Pros: (No data provided)
Cons: (No data provided)
Overall review: great car 281,123 miles
Review ID: #428561 Is this review offensive?
best car i have owned by steve from Anchorage Alaska on 06/28/2002. Trim: 1989 Nissan Sentra Sedan, Owned more than 10 years.
Pros: i bought this car from Avis with 25,000 miles already on the odometer and we have put another 140,000+ on the car. it has never let us down. the engine has never been apart, it still runs great. has been in several accidents but it keeps going. cannot say enough good things about this car. was driven from Ohio to Alaska without a glitch and has survived Alaska winters for over 10 years. THAT is saying something.
Cons: no cons. this Sentra has no faults in my opinion.
Overall review: you never really know how good a car is until you live with it for awhile. this is the best car i have ever owned, without a doubt. if i lived in the lower 48 and was in the market for a new smaller car, i would buy a Sentra without question.
Review ID: #285685 Is this review offensive?
She just won't die! by Matthew from Maumelle, AR on 01/24/2002. Trim: 1989 Nissan Sentra Sedan, Owned 8 years.
Pros: It just won't die!
Cons: It just won't die! My wife won't let me get a new one until it does!
Overall review: She has over 233,000 miles and still starts right up in the morning; no complaints! The only things I've had to do was replace some engine seals at about 200,000 miles to stop a small oil leak. I currently need to have the clutch rebuilt, but I figure she'll be good for at least another 150,000 after that! She's not the fastest car in the world, but is pretty peppy. She's outlasted two brand new Chrysler products; which I'll never buy again.

My experiences, thoughts, desires, and observations.
I'm simple, yet complex. I know, yet I'm still learning who I am. I'm wise, yet naiive. I am changing, but remaining the same. I'm Distant & I love it
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I am Trayvon Martin…
My skin is the miscommunication
Between white supremacy and American gratification.
The misunderstanding
Between loitering and casually standing.
The epitome of misunderstood
Whenever my permanent address is anywhere but the hood.
And now, as I understand
My clothing and demeanor makes me a danger to this land.
Here are my skittles!
Taste my rainbow…
See how it's bitter and bland
Like the scenery from my window.
Lets evaluate the implications
Of this situation
And what it means for my people
In this nation.
Don't be seen at night
Without a non-Black in sight,
Don't enjoy the scenery
Or acknowledge the creep staring at you
With the bright cell phone light.
Don't quickly run the opposite way
When you're being watched by a stranger,
And never…ever
Cry for help when you're in danger.
This is for you!
For the one in the crowd
Who thought racism was through.
This is for him!
The one who justifies racism's non-existance
With the existence of his three Black friends.
Better yet, this…
This is for her!
The one in her room right now
Cause Zimmerman had to protect himself from this hoodlum.
And this is for EVERY Black person,
Knowing the fear of being the only color in the crowd…
Knowing the fear of success labeled anomaly…
Knowing the fear of unjustified accusation and brutality.
Trying to keep our sanity
As society denies our humanity,
Striving for their American Dream
When we're not rungs on the ladder
But just the space in between.
An injustice anywhere
Is a threat to justice everywhere,
Unless you are Black
And all can see the waistband of your underwear.
I too, sing America
But you don't hear my voice,
236 years has you believing
You have that choice.
But America has lied to you before,
Believe they are lying to you now.
And with my skittles and my tongue,
I plan to show you how!
R.I.P to Trayvon Martin
Many blessings to his family.

A zoo is like a high school cafeteria: people tend to be grouped and classified with others like them. Oh, and someone's always throwing food.
Certain types of people prefer to work with certain types of animals, and on the flip side of that, certain types of animals attract certain types of people. Don't even act like that's not true, y'all. Many keepers (including me) work with a variety of species every day, but even then, almost every keeper has a niche where they fit best.

Divorcee Stacey Handley is focused on her 2-year-old twins and her job in a hospital personnel department. So when her ex-boyfriend, Dr. Jake Logan, joins the staff, he's a distraction. Though once voted most likely to marry, Stacey and Jake didn't -- but they did lose a baby. When old passions stir, it still stands between them, because Jake refuses to become a father again -- even to her twins. Lilian Darcy kicks off the Logan's Legacy Revisited continuity series with The Couple Most Likely to (3), a pleasant but unspectacular read with an interesting point of conflict.

3M Scotch 230 Drafting Tape is designed for temporary layup needs, such as holding drawings, tracings, or other papers to blueprints or drawing boards. The tape is conformable and has low tack so it removes easily and cleanly without damaging work. Engineers and architects sometimes refer to this tape as "the second most useful tape in the world" since like duct tape it is very versatile and has many uses. Other uses include labeling and hanging lightweight drawings and posters. If standard masking tape is tearing your work upon removal then this is the tape to look at. NOTE: 3M is discontinuing their 230 Drafting tape and the tape they are suggesting as an alternative is their 3051 low tack paper tape. Once our current inventory sells out we will start stocking their 3051 product.
JVCC PRE-MASK-1 Premask Application Tape is a 5.3 mil natural color transfer premask. Translucent saturated paper with a rubber resin based pressure-sensitive adhesive. It is fully compatible for plotter cuts and thermal die cuts of all size die cuts and vinyl lettering. Pre Mask is used to transfer cut vinyl graphics from their release liner to another surface. The tape protects the graphics from scratches during installation and allows quicker application since the cut graphics will not move during installation. Has medium tack which is ideal for most transfer applications and it has good resistance to abrasion and moisture. Please note this tape only has adhesive on one side; it is not a double-sided tape.
Shurtape CP-743 Matte Black Paper Tape is a photographer's matte black masking tape. It features an opaque, matte surface for light-free masking and has high quick stick & adhesion when reproducing photographs. Shurtape CP743 Paper Tape is used for photographic reproduction work: cropping and edging negatives; positioning negatives for contact printing; redacting legal documents prior to copying; and for blackout sealing of camera bellows and film holders against light leaks. Reliable tape for use in photo studios, film processing laboratories, as well as in home dark-rooms. CP743/P743 Masking Tape is also recommended for use as a chart tape. It features an easy, consistent unwind and is hand tearable. Also because CP-743 features a clear adhesive no white will be visible when looking at the tape from the side unlike a gaffers tape which has white adhesive which can sometimes be partially visible when looking at the tape from that angle. It is now manufactured by Shurtape and used to be referred to as Permacel P-743.
Pro Tapes Pro-Measurement Ruler Tape is a Kraft paper tape with adhesive backing which can be used as a repositionable ruler. It is a yellow paper tape printed black with markings. It is great for tough situations where a tape measure will not fit. On the Imperial (English) version of the tape every 1/8 of an inch is marked (except on the tape labeled as no lesser increments - for that one only the 1 inch designations are marked) and it is numbered 1 through 12 at each inch designation. It then repeats itself every 12 inches. The 1 inch wide size gives you room off to the side to write, e.g. you can put a strip down and then mark off foot designations at every 12 inches - 1', 2', 3', .... The Metric version of the tape is numbered 1 through 10 at each cm designation. It then repeats itself every 10 cm. There are alternating markings on the Metric tape - for the first 10 cm it is marked at every mm designation and then for the next 10 cm it is marked at every 1/2 cm designation (after the 1/2 cm markings there will be a perforation in the tape and a small gap (about 2mm) before the next run of mm markings begins). Please note that because paper tape elongates a bit it will stretch over longer distances. It is perforated every 12 inches because for each foot it will be very close, but for longer measuring runs you may need to match it up with a metal tape measure to be sure when it is stuck down it isn't stretched at all or the tape can be un-perforated and each foot set down to match.
Duck Brand Freezer Tape is used with your favorite freezer paper to help save and protect your favorite meats, vegetables and other bakery goods until you're ready to use them. The tape is hand-tearable and its surface is writable with marker or pen which helps for listing contents and date. To use you should place your food in the center of your freezer paper (waxy side in) and then wrap the paper around the food. Then seal the paper with Duck Freezer Tape by wrapping it completely around the contents of the freezer paper. You should not place your food in direct contact with the tape. Unlike standard paper masking tape Freezer Tape stays adhered well in low freezer temperatures when wrapped around the contents of freezer paper.
3M 05916 Welding and Spark Deflection Paper Tape is a flame-retardant, repositionable, adhesive-backed paper product used to protect vertical surfaces from damage caused by welding spatter and grinding sparks. It suppresses burning from welding spatter and grinding sparks and can be adjusted after initial installation to insure correct position. It offers low-cost but vital protection. 3M 05916 protects automotive glass and light fixtures, painted sheet metal, other damageable vertical surfaces from spatter and sparks. The product is NOT designed for installation on horizontal surfaces, such as roofs, decklids, hoods, carpeting on floorboards since it is not designed to prevent heat transfer from sparks or spatter that are allowed to sit in one position on the paper, these will burn through.

First timer decorating with no plan what's so ever
February 6, 2013 in Design Dilemma
I need help its my first time decorating a house !! It all started with this carpet that was on sale for like $75 and then my husband went and got a curtain to keep the blazing sun away now since we will be staying here in KSA longer then usual we have to start building our home. and I don't know if I should keep the curtain and rug together or change the curtain? Since its seems matchy matchy Also now my other problem is what type of sofa will fit into this room the hight of the room is 11ft and wight 12ft i was thinking of custom making a L shape sofa since custom making things here is soo cheap also I would love it if u tell me what color should the walls, sofa and pillows be!! I love lil pillows
Please if u can post pics because I have a bad imagination system
And By the way the apartments here come a pouch of rooms and u Just make one of them a living room and so it's four lil walls were working with

Unless you absolutely love that rug, I would return both. You're starting with accessories. I think you should buy furniture first.

I LOVE your rug!!! I would build my room around it. Since colors vary on monitors, I'm guessing it's blue/gray with off-white and gold? Is that correct? It should be the star of your room. Have black or dark gray furniture made and it will be perfect.
Donna Talley
love the rug! not sure about the curtain. i would paint the walls dark gray, use pops of color in accessories, and sprinkle lots of shiny metallic and glass finishes around ( lamps, art, mirrored tables...)

Analyzing large-scale spike trains data with spatio-temporal constraints

NeuroComp/KEOpS'12 workshop beyond the retina: from computational models to outcomes in bioengineering. Focus on architecture and dynamics sustaining information flows in the visuomotor system. (2012)
Résumé : Recent experimental advances have made it possible to record several hundred neurons simultaneously in the retina as well as in the cortex. Analyzing such a huge amount of data requires to elaborate statistical, mathematical and numer- ical methods, to describe both the spatio-temporal structure of the population activity and its relevance to sensory coding. Among these methods, the maxi- mum entropy principle has been used to describe the statistics of spike trains. Recall that the maximum entropy principle consists of xing a set of constraints, determined with the empirical average of quantities ("observables") measured on the raster: for example average ring rate of neurons, or pairwise corre- lations. Maximising the statistical entropy given those constraints provides a probability distribution, called a Gibbs distribution, that provides a statistical model to t the data and extrapolate phenomenological laws. Most approaches were restricted to instantaneous observables i.e. quantities corresponding to spikes occurring at the same time (singlets, pairs, triplets and so on).

We've got a new top secret project in the works that is going to change things. That is such a cliché. When I hear companies say that my radar goes off and I think whatever. We've all heard that time and time again like the boy that cried wolf. However, there are still those few times in life when it's true. This is one of those times. I've hinted about us testing this new product before and it's really close to launching. The amazing thing about it is we had to put an 8,000 lb winch on my Ranger just for the testing. The holes we hit that bury normal units are no match for us now. When we do find holes that stop the Ranger, we have had to double line our 5,000 lb winch. I'm talking about deep stuff.
We ride like a lot of other people when we're not testing. We know the holes we can make and know the ones no one can make. Usually, we hit all the no-brainers and a handful of the others. The testing of this new product means we are hitting EVERYTHING. Yes, we've stuck the Ranger, but the places it is making us go to get stuck are simply unimaginable. I truly believe that out test Ranger is genuinely the baddest Ranger on the planet. The holes we are hitting during testing I would swear we should NOT be able to go through. And yet, time after time, we are going through them over and over. When I talk about deep holes many people think right off – deep water. Not this go round. I'm talking peanut butter, sludge and water. Thick nasty goo. The stuff that takes 5 hours to clean off after riding.
Now that we've logged hundreds of miles testing, it is just starting to sink in that this performance is not a fluke. It's real. This Ranger will really go this many places. All I can say is the deep holes are going to get a lot deeper once this is released. Hold to your seats boys and girls, this ride is about to get serious.

Equality Ohio will deliver 80,000 petitions to the Union-Scioto school district tomorrow urging the superintendent to adopt protections for LGBT students. The effort comes after Zachary Houston, "a 15-year-old teenager was severely beaten in his high school class room for being gay." Houston is now speaking about his experiences "and the ACLU is standing behind him, threatening Union-Scioto with a lawsuit unless the school district meets with them about putting and end to bullying and harassment." A recent analysis from GLSEN also found that Ohio schools have above average rates of anti-gay bias, with one in four Ohio LGBT students having been physically assaulted because of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

Long work hours and the wellbeing of fathers and their families
AbstractThe average hours worked by full-time employees in Australia have increased since the late 1970s. This, combined with increases in female labour force participation, has led to concerns about the impact of long work hours on family life. This paper explores the relationship between fathers' work hours, their own wellbeing and that of their families using data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia survey. The analysis is restricted to full-time employed fathers with a partner and dependent children. Overall, satisfaction with work hours decreases as the number of hours worked increases. However, long work hours are not necessarily, or even on average associated with pervasively lower wellbeing. Work hours are negatively related to only two of the thirteen measures of wellbeing examined. For fathers working very long hours, their satisfaction with their work hours is found to be very important to the relationship between work hours and wellbeing.

Review: Lands' End Canvas Chambray Pea Coat
I'm not really big on the military-inspired menswear (well, outside of chinos, a pair of desert boots and navy blazers), but my roommate is more of a fan of such styling and had been looking for a lightweight grey pea coat. I mentioned that the Lands' End Canvas chambray pea coat might fit that bill and with the various LEC coupon codes and sales that he probably wouldn't have to pay the full price or shipping for it.
He's had it for a while and likes it. Frankly, I think it's a good piece for spring/summer if you need a lighter jacket, but not something that's a parka or a raincoat. The chambray has a good grey color to it and an gingham cotton lining.
The coat also comes with three interior pockets, so you have plenty of room for storing stuff, which is always nice. The neck also has a locker loop on the inside.
For warmth, it has a metal hook latch and a buttoning throat latch, too. The button stance on the jacket is technically 6x8, but you'll probably wear it 6x6 most of the time. The collar isn't stiff at all, so I don't think popping it will provide very much wind protection, but then again this is for warmer weather.
I do think I should mention this jacket isn't going to be anymore waterproof than a pair of your jeans. A light rain, you'll probably be all right, but a downpour will turn you into a soaked rag I'd imagine. So, check the weather before you head out in this jacket.
The fit is pretty good. The roommate is about a 38, I'm about a 38-39. This coat is a size "small" and feels great. I don't think you'd be able to comfortably put a blazer or sport coat underneath, but a lightweight cardigan or most non-chunky sweaters would fit just fine. Just going with a dress shirt underneath would look fine, too. The one thing I dug about the fit is that the sleeves are a bit longer than most jackets I've seen, which is nice if you're a guy with longer arms like myself. If you have shorter arms and really are picky about the fit, a trip to an alterationist would take care of that issue.
For casualwear, this is a good jacket. I think it goes well with a lot of things — especially if you dig the idea of chambray and denim playing off each other — and the chambray fabric really pulls it away from looking like it's too heavily drawing from its military-designed roots.
It reminds me a lot of one of my favorite cotton sport coats that's also in a dark grey color. A good knockaround jacket that you can thrown on over just about anything. If you can get it on sale and are looking for a spring jacket to replace your winter pea coat, then maybe give this a shot.

Some thoughts on Lands' End Canvas sweater sizing
About a month back I bought this Lands' End Canvas donegal shawl-collared sweater. Between a few discount codes, free shipping, etc., it was more than half off, coming in around $65. I needed a heavier sweater to wear for quick trips to the store or the corner Italian place, when a jacket wasn't necessary and I just wanted to throw on a parka rather than a full overcoat.
For that purpose, this sweater's fine. It's warm, it's quality is about what I'd expected for the price (although I do think full retail on this at $150 was absurd). But my main complaint is the sizing and fit.
This is a size small. For reference, I wear a size 38 Long in jackets, have a 15.5" neck, 35" sleeve, weigh around 150 lbs. and am 5'11". I was going back and forth between getting a medium and small, and decided to use the thought process of "when in doubt, size down." And yikes, I'm glad I did.
I don't consider myself a small, as my large arms often prevent that on most standard sizing — and I have a beer gut! But, LEC's "small" sizing is huge. I could probably put another layer on underneath this sweater before I'd consider this constricting. Also, the length is a bit long in the sleeves and torso. Compounding the problem, I'm fairly certain just wearing it has stretched the fabric a bit.
So, if you're going to go sweater hunting at LEC, definitely size down. If you're typically a small, I'd suggest not bothering (or just get a small and expect to have to return it). For those of you with larger builds, you'll probably find yourself at an advantage here.
Anyone else have a similar experience with LEC's sweaters?

This Fits: New Lands' End Canvas Sweaters
On the topic of business casual, thisfits has some great intel on the Land's End Canvas line of sweaters that's worth a read.
Why should you bother with sweaters, one might ask? Well, if your shirt's a bit too baggy in the sleeves and/or torso, then a sweater is a great way to hide all that and still keep those shirts in rotation for your wardrobe. Plus, they always look great when you layer them up with a jacket.

Broccoli is very low in calories, provides just 34 cal per 100 g. However, it is rich in dietary fiber, minerals, vitamins, and anti-oxidants that have proven health benefits.
Studies have shown that these compounds by modifying positive signalling at molecular receptor levels help protect from prostate, colon, urinary bladder, pancreatic, and breast cancers.
Fresh vegetable is exceptionally rich source of vitamin-C. Provides 89.2 mg or about 150% of RDA per 100 g. Vitamin-C is a powerful natural anti-oxidant and immune modulator, helps fight against flu causing viruses.
It is also a good source of minerals like calcium, manganese, iron, magnesium, selenium, zinc and phosphorus.
Broccoli leaves (green tops) are an excellent source of carotenoids and vitamin A; (provide 16000 IU of vitamin A per 100 g) contain these compounds several times more than in the roots.
Citrus Fruits
All citrus fruits are high in vitamin C and limonene, thought to inhibit breast cancer. They are all antioxidants and have anti-cancer properties.
Red grapefruit is high in cancer-fighting lycopene.
Oranges are a good source of choline, which improves mental functioning.
The combinations are carotenoids, flavonoids, terpenes, limonoids and coumarins make citrus a total cancer fighting package.
Grapefruit- Rich in beta-carotene, folic acid, C, small amounts of B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, E. Rich in calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, small amounts of copper, iron, manganese and zinc.
Lemons- Rich in C, small amounts of B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and biotin. Rich in calcium, chlorine, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulphur, small amounts of copper and iron.

Healthy Hearts
By combining soluble and insoluble fiber, oatmeal lowers bad cholesterol. Daily intake of 3 gms of soluble fiber from oatmeal reduces risk of heart diseases.
Stabilized blood sugar
With a low glycemic index oatmeal is assimilated slowly, keeping sugar levels stable. The American Diabetes Association recommends a daily fiber intake of 20 - 35 gms. One cup of cooked oatmeal supplies 4 gms.
Colon cancer
High fiber content of oats is anti carcinogenic, effective especially for colon cancer. Whole oats result in bulky stool, which in turn dilutes carcinogens.
Enhanced fitness levels
Oatmeal helps in fighting obesity as its soluble fiber slows down digestion, thus increasing the sense of fullness.
Oats not only add fiber to your food but also add zing to it. Rolled oats have long been a staple diet of athletes especially weight trainers. So start on your oat diet and see positive change in your life.
Thin the blood: When consumed, they've been shown to thin the blood, which can be helpful in the prevention of heart disease, such as heart attacks and stroke.
Antioxidants: They also are high in antioxidants, and so might be helpful in the prevention of many different types of cancer.
Joint health: Your joints will also love you for consuming garlic on a regular basis — a study found that people who consumed higher amounts of garlic (and other allium vegetables, such as leeks, chives, and onions) were less likely to get osteoarthritis than those who didn't consume as much.
Increase absorption of iron and zinc: A study found that eating garlic with grains helped the absorption of these necessary minerals. This is especially important for vegetarians who may not get as much iron and zinc in their diet as a meat-eater.
One of my favorite recipes!
• 1 tsp / 5 ml extra virgin olive oil
• 1 onion, halved and thinly sliced
• ¼ tsp / 1.25 ml dried Herbes de Provence
• Pinch sea salt
• Pinch freshly ground black pepper
• 1 cup / 240 ml broccoli florets
• 1 egg
• 2 egg whites
• 1 cup / 240 ml low-fat milk
• 1/8 tsp / 0.625 ml freshly grated nutmeg
• 2 Tbsp / 30 ml Danish or French blue cheese or you can use dry cottage cheese
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Position a rack in the upper third of oven and preheat to 400°F / 200°C. Coat a 9-inch glass or ceramic quiche dish with Eat-Clean Cooking Spray( you can use little olive oil ) and place on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and Herbes de Provence, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine and spread out in a single layer to cook, undisturbed, until starting to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Stir and reduce heat to medium low. Continue to cook onions, stirring occasionally, until they reduce in volume and are well caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes.
In the meantime, heat a small pot of boiling water over high heat and prepare an ice bath. Blanch broccoli florets in boiling water for 10 seconds, then drain and immediately submerge in ice bath to stop cooking process. Drain and chop florets into half- to one-inch pieces.
Whisk together egg, egg whites, milk and nutmeg, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread caramelized onions, broccoli and blue cheese in bottom of prepared quiche dish. Pour egg mixture over top and push under any ingredients not covered by egg to prevent burning. Bake uncovered until set and golden brown around edges and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let quiche rest at room temperature for 10 minutes to settle, then cut into eight slices and serve.

Baked Broccoli Burgers
Recipe from the Vegetarian Times
Makes 4 burgers
Burger ingredients:
- 1/3 cup dry couscous
- 1 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup chopped scallions
- 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 15 ounce can of chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 tablespoon sesame tahini
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
Tahini dressing ingredients:
- 1/3 cup sesame tahini
- 1/3 cup water
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit.
I did these first three steps simultaneously in order to speed up the prep time.
1. In a small pot, bring the water and couscous to a boil. Remove from heat immediately and allow the couscous to sit in the pot for 10 minutes, soaking up the water.
2. Steam the broccoli in a steamer for 5-7 minutes (or use a microwave or stove method, you just want the broccoli to be soft in the end)
3. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add in the onion and scallions, stirring occasionally for 3-5 minutes until the onion softens. Remove from heat and stir in the cumin.
Gather your couscous, broccoli, onion mix, chickpeas and sesame tahini and combine together in a food processor.
Pour the mixture into a bowl and stir in the bread crumbs. Form it into patties and place the patties on a cookie sheet lined with foil.
Bake for 50 minutes, turning the patties over halfway through. You'll know they are done when the tops begin to brown.
To make the tahini sauce, place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until combined, roughly 30 seconds.
Top your burgers with the sauce, throw some pickles, tomato and lettuce on there, and go to town!

Paired with a two-cheese white sauce, broccoli makes a wonderful pizza topping. The secret to a crisp crust is preheating the baking stone or sheet. If you like extra-crispy pizza, prebake the dough 3 to 4 minutes before adding toppings.
Ingredient list
Serves 6
2 Tbs. nonhydrogenated margarine or butter, divided
6 oz. mushrooms, sliced (2 cups)
8 oz. broccoli florets (3 cups)
1 Tbs. all-purpose flour

2 cloves garlic, minced (2 tsp.)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella, divided
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, divided
1 13.8-oz. pkg. refrigerated pizza dough
1. Place pizza stone or baking sheet in center of oven, and heat to 425°F.
2. Melt 1 1/2 tsp. margarine in skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, and cook 4 to 7 minutes, or until beginning to brown, stirring frequently. Add broccoli and 1/3 cup water. Cover tightly, and steam broccoli in skillet 3 to 4 minutes, or until tender.
3. Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 1/2 Tbs. margarine in saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour, and cook 2 minutes, or until pale golden, stirring constantly. Stir in milk, garlic, and salt. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, or until mixture thickens and begins to boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/4 cup mozzarella and 2 Tbs. Parmesan until sauce is smooth and cheese is melted.
4. Shape pizza dough according to package directions. Remove pizza stone from oven, and place dough on hot stone.
5. Spread white sauce over dough to within 1/2 inch of edge, and top with broccoli mixture. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and Parmesan over top. Return to oven, and bake 18 to 20 minutes, or until edges of pizza are golden and center is hot and bubbly. Cool slightly before slicing and serving.

First Trax :: Daily News
Powder is Back In The Snow Reports
Mother Nature did not let us down, and as expected dropped some snow on our northern neighbors yesterday, last night, and right now! Here's the damage…
Canaan Valley: 5"
Canaan Valley, Timberline, and Wisp are all under Winter Weather Advisories until 1pm today. This all bodes well for the SkiSoutheast trip to Snowshoe this weekend. Hey – did you guys know we're heading to Snowshoe this weekend?!
It appears that except for Beech Mountain, the forecast for snow down here in North Carolina has been lifted. The good news is that for the remainder of the week it will get below freezing at night and warm up into the high 30s and low 40s during the day.
We, or at least I did and I see there's a similar discussion on the boards, questioned whether or not the resorts would turn on their guns if it got cold enough. We are getting near the end of the season (it hurts to say that out loud) and the resorts have plenty of base right now and enough surplus to move around if need be. Well, our question has been answered. Appalachian, Cataloochee, Ober, and The Homestead are all making snow as I type.
This is great news! The resorts are feeling comfortable enough to spend the money and make some fresh snow. It also means that they are confident that the weather will cooperate so they can keep their investment on the slopes as long as possible.
I've got some news to share coming out of Ober this morning. Ober Gatlinburg will start selling their 2014/15 season pass at a reduced rate starting March 1st. Next year's pass is $274 when purchased March 1st through the end of season. Plus, whenever you do buy, you get to ski the remainder of this season as well. I love these deals!
While we are on the tail end of the ski season, we do have about another month or more of skiing and riding left. Appalachian anticipates going through the end of March, while Snowshoe has already extended their season to April 10th! There is still plenty of opportunity to get turns in. Plus, Spring skiing offers up its own unique joys that I am looking forward to (but not too quickly).
Take care out there today!

RIO DE JANEIRO--Brazilian businessman Eike Batista's mining firm, MMX Mineracao e Metalicos SA, won't be out of the woods after unloading debt in a potential deal unveiled last week as it will likely have to renegotiate a key logistics contract or face a penalty.
The contract, which MMX signed in 2011 long before any sign of trouble in Mr. Batista's business group, transports 36 million metric tons of iron ore per year on a railroad operated by MRS Logistica, a consortium of Brazilian steelmakers and rival mining companies. It is valid through 2026 and features a take-or-pay clause requiring MMX to ship at least 80% of that volume starting in 2017, when an expansion project at MMX's main Serra Azul mining complex was expected to be completed.
But MMX has slowed work on Serra Azul, and analysts doubt it will have the money to finish the project following the sudden collapse of Mr. Batista's business empire this year. Serra Azul currently produces a meager 6 million tons of iron ore annually and will exhaust its resources by 2019 without new investments.
Brazilian daily Valor Economico reported Tuesday that MMX could face a penalty of BRL1 billion from MRS Logistica for not upholding its end of the contract, citing unnamed sources.
"MMX's intention is to reach an understanding with MRS, seeking a solution that attends to both parties," MMX said in an emailed response. The company's shares recently traded 4% lower at BRL1.69.
MRS Logistica declined to comment.
MMX unveiled a preliminary deal last week to sell a controlling stake in its nearly operational port project to Dutch commodities trader Trafigura Beheer BV and Abu Dhabi's Mubadala Development Co. The buyers could pay MMX $400 million and assume the mining company's debt.
Carlos Gonzalez, chief executive at MMX, said the proposed deal would leave MMX better positioned to focus on expanding Serra Azul, possibly with additional partners.
But the scale of MMX's obligations to MRS Logistica, whose biggest shareholders are mining giant Vale SA and steelmaker Companhia Siderurgica Nacional, is difficult to ignore. Given the minimum volume of iron ore established in the contract and the agreed-upon fee of 26.46 Brazilian reais ($11.71) per ton of ore, MMX's deal with MRS Logistica implied paying the railroad operator at least BRL762 million per year for the better part of a decade.
"The groups that are analyzing the acquisition of MMX's assets will be closely looking at all those latent liabilities," said Gilberto Dias Calaes, director of the ConDet mining consultancy. "There will obviously be a debt if that capacity isn't occupied."

An altercation between a woman and a police officer at the Philadelphia Puerto Rican Day Parade is drawing attention after video of the incident was posted online.
Video uploaded to YouTube on Sept. 30 by a user named Gisela Valentin shows crowds gathered in the streets while officers patrol the area.
At one point in the video, several people - including a woman carrying a flag - appear to toss water from bottles in the direction of a group of police officers who were handcuffing a man against a car.
One of the officers, appearing to have been struck by the water, approached the woman and punched her once in the face. The woman fell to the ground, was handcuffed, and was led away.
The identity of the woman is unknown at this time.
It is unknown if she was arrested or if charges have been filed against her.
