I've always been jealous of those who can magically transform a blank canvas or paper into an image that actually resembles something artistic and beautiful.
Whether it's our awe inspiring sunsets, blush pink early evening clouds, stunningly vibrant Bougainvillea or the shells that wash up on our beaches. There are so many vistas, images and faces that beg to be captured through art.
If you need a little instruction to get you creating something, there are several groups, clubs and classes that can get you going in the right direction.
Our Boca Grande Art Alliance has been fostering creative islanders for 25 years and has done a fabulous job promoting the visual arts in Boca Grande.
The Art Alliance does many things for us; it provides opportunities for local artists to exhibit their work, brings artists and teachers to the island, funds college scholarships for young artists, increases our educational programs and partners with island organizations to provide art lectures, classes and programs to the community.
If you are thinking about getting a little more creative, stop by the Art Alliance this Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. for their Artist Demonstration Day. It will be a 'sampler' of local artists at work showing the processes and techniques they will be teaching this season.
Registration forms to sign up for courses and workshops will be available, as well as refreshments.
If photography is your passion the Boca Grande Camera Club has monthly meetings and loves to see new faces. Their next meeting will be on Tuesday, January 17 at 11 a.m. in the Women's Club Room. They have an upcoming photography show on Saturday and Sunday, January 28 and 29. The hours on Saturday will be from 9 a.m. through 4 p.m. and from 10 a.m. through 4 p.m. on Sunday. The opening reception will be Friday, January, 27 from 5 to 7:30 p.m. at the Boca Grande Art Alliance.
If you are inspired to create your own artwork, there are a few locations on island where you can purchase art supplies.
Finishing Touch Custom Framing in the North Village, carries oil and acrylic paints, brushes, sketch pads, canvas boards, palette knives and more. Special orders can be placed on most supplies. Hours are Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. 964-8156.
Ruhama's • Books in the Sand, Inc. has a fun selection of watercolor supplies such as paints, watercolor postcards and pencils. They have regular and watercolor sketch pads in smaller sizes so you can create wherever you are inspired. You will also find needlepoint supplies and great pens for addressing invitations and calligraphy.
If creating art isn't your forte, but you do enjoy and appreciate great art, there are several galleries on the island that can assist you in covering every wall in your home.
Hughes Gallery has been showcasing the art of award-winning artists for over a decade. Pieces are done in oils, pastels, tempera and watercolors. 964-4273.
Smart Studio features amazing artwork by local artist Wini Smart and daughter Gail Cleveland. Their works are done in oils, watercolors and acrylics. Prints and originals are available. 964-0519.

London (CNN) -- CNN International was named News Channel of the Year at the Royal Television Society Awards in London late Wednesday, beating off competition from the BBC and Sky News.
The network's treatment of stories over the past year -- including the intensifying conflict in the Middle East, elections in the U.S., Egypt, Russia and France, the transition of power in China, economic turmoil in Europe, riots at South African mines, extreme weather, the London 2012 Olympic Games and the Diamond Jubilee celebrations -- won the votes of the jury at the UK-based media society.
Tony Maddox, Executive Vice President of CNN International, said: "The determination and fearlessness of our reporting is an immense source of pride for me, and this award is testament to those qualities.

Harvest Moon Cafe
Online Reservations
I searched for restaurants in Sonoma before our trip last week and Harvest Moon Cafe came up as having great reviews and the menu looked pretty interesting so we made a reso for our first night in Sonoma. We could not have been happier. It was best dinner we had on a 10 day trip. The waiter recommended a delicious, reasonably priced wine that was delicious. In regards to food, we ordered a few apps and one main, one desert (smores!) and shared everything. Everything was so fresh and flavourful. The people made the experience even better. A song came on that I wanted to know the name of and our waiter went out of his way to try and sort what it was. They couldn't have been nicer. We will definitely go back when in Sonoma.
I never give a 10 out of 10 but every part of harvest moon is amazing!!! Will definitely be going back and spreading the word! Must go and experience for yourself! Truly a feel good place!
Nick and Jen grew up in Sonoma and are committed to farm fresh food and fun. Not only is the food great but they make your experience terrific.
Thank you for a wonderful dinner! The outdoor dining was very nice and the heaters kept it jut the right temperature. We had a great time with our friends and it was easy to hear them. I would make a couple of suggestions tho. I love that the menu is the vision of the owners and I welcome that creativity! I had the farm tomato salad and the ribeye steak. I am a vegan and took this opportunity to indulge in a Farm to table experience. My taste buds are not destroyed by salt and I truly love the taste of food. With that said I found both dishes to be quite heavy on the sauces for my liking. I truly had a wonderful night and I would go back just to try something new!
with this restaurant. First visit and hopefully not the last! We're from the Midwest or we would eat there more often.
We loved our dinner at Harvest Moon. Our table was in the courtyard out back and our meal was great. Interesting menu options you are not likely to find anywhere else. Overall great experience.
Harvest Moon Cafe is consistently excellent in every way. Featuring local Ingredients, to bring out the best in every dish with innovative gourmet preparations. From innovative salads and appetizers through outstanding main courses and desserts, this restaurant is firing on all cylinders. The menu is constantly changing with the season so there is always something to look forward to. We always look forward to our next visit to the Harvest Moon Café. Don't miss this Sonoma gem.
My birthday dinner was very special. The wait staff even included a birthday candle. Very nice.
My parents, boyfriend and I had a fantastic dinner there this weekend. The beet and green been salad was a favorite appetizer and for mains everyone was delighted! Between us, we ordered the lamb, gnocchi, clams and prawn entree, and the streak. The outdoor patio was charming and the heaters kept us very comfortable. We finished with coffee, biscotis and the s'more dessert, with 4 spoons. It was the perfect finish to a great meal and another great memory from Sonoma!
Harvest Moon continues to deliver some of the best salads I have ever eaten. And the main courses are inventive and comforting at the same time. We love our neighborhood restaurants, living off of Sonoma Square, but Harvest Moon always comes out on top.
First experience visiting both the area and this particular restaurant which was recommended to us from a canadian friend, I would definitely return should i be in the area. Our waiter was very friendly and made us feel extremely comfortable with our choices, the food was great and the lemon dessert was awesome. good stuff..
Great food, exceptional service! The patio is pure wine country ambiance.
This place was amazing!! Everything was so fresh and prepared beautifully. I loved it and when I am back in Sonoma I will go back.
The food is excellent - farm to fork fresh and the service is always knowledgable, personable and spot on with every course. This us one of our most favorite restaurants. We make a habit of stopping into Kamen Wines and taking one of its many amazing wines with us to enjoy with the fab dinner at Harvest Moon Cafe!!
Really enjoyed the ambience here. The menu changes daily. We loved our tomatoe and bread salad with fresh basil and balsamic, as well as our lettuce with house made bacon, pickled onions and blue cheeses dressing. Our pork Ragusa over buckwheat polenta was good, but a bit on the salty side. The halibut was fresh. Great wait staff:)
We arrived early and were turned away to wait until our reservation time - a bit disappointing. However, the food did not disappoint. Very enjoyable dinner.
We have been to Harvest Moon the last 3 visits to Sonoma. This time we brought our friends with us and they all loved it. Menu changes daily. There's usually a vegetarian entree and it was excellent-- mushrooms with buckwheat polenta. We highly recommend Harvest Moon.
wonderful food and service. Attention given to every detail, including personal care toward our enjoying the meal.
My husband and I had a wonderful dinner here. We loved the patio - casual but elegant. Patio heaters kept us comfortable on a cool night. We love the creativity of a restaurant that changes its menu daily. My fennel and watermelon salad was one of the best dishes I ever ate. The sole and curried beef entrees also were lip-smackingly delicious. The creme fraiche ice cream that came with the pear-ginger cake was superb. The service was perfect. We definitely will come back on our next trip to Sonoma.
The food was very good and service was exceptional. We sat out on their patio and had a delightlful evening.
There were 8 of us for dinner at a table on the patio. We each thought the food was excellent, and our waiter was terrific.
Wonderfully-prepared food, made from local ingredients. Exceptional wine list, serving wines from local vineyards that are not sold to the outside. Attentive and friendly service. Great outdoor dining on the patio.
the food was wonderful and our waitress was an added benefit to our meal for her energy and knowledge
Never disappoints. Best food in Sonoma and the menu changes daily!!! Patio is wonderful and is tented for cooler weather.
We had a lovely dinner, everything was great!! Would definitely go back many, many times!
Truly outstanding. Our dining experience exceeded all expectations. In talking with locals, they would prefer if we did not review with too much praise as they would prefer to keep this treasure for themselves.
We at Harvest Moon and had a wonderful meal. Great wine selection and farm to table type of dishes. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.
Wonderful preparation and great views from the patio on a beautiful day
This small restaurant in Sonoma Square delivers big on taste. The menu has few items, all of which are made from fresh, local and seasonal ingredients. I had a beet salad with tonnato dressing - just perfect - followed by one of the best lamb shanks ever. Needless to say, the wine list is large and varied (as one would expect in the middle of the wine country!). The waiter was friendly and accommodating to two of us at the table with dietary restrictions.
Harvest Moon is a true gem. We sat outdoors and the ambiance was wonderful. Food presentation was just a little above average -- more in the 'cafe' style but the quality was outstanding. Our server was also the wine buyer and she specializes in small, boutique gems so if you don't recognize most of the labels don't worry -- just ask. Definitely one of the best ribeye steaks I've had outside of a high-end steakhouse where it would have been double the cost.
We came here after a very long and tiring day and were so pleased to sit in the courtyard and just relax. The food was very good - especially the steak - but the real star here was the service. The wait staff bent over backward to be friendly, informative and make our dinner here memorable. You always recognize a really good restaurant by the type of staff they can keep!
The food and service were very good. We sat outside for dinner which was nice.
The food here is outstanding, love the variety and quality of the dishes , though the menu changes daily the chef really tries to serve dishes for everyone. The food is very fresh and flavorful , loved the outdoor seating. Will definitely return and recommend this restaurant.
Very comfortable outdoor seating. Great service with wonderful wine suggestions. Good variety of options on menu. Quiet environment so it was easy to have a conversation. We felt as though we were very well looked after and taken care of with all of the choices we made. All of our needs were met in a timely manner and always with a cheerful smile.
Wow, terrific meals we both had. The duck was incredibly tender and sweet. My vegetable entree was superb! Kudos Harvest Moon! We will definitely return.
We have had the pleasure of dining at Harvest Moon Cafe 4 times now & the food has been fantastic every time. The menu changes daily & uses top quality local products. They have a large outdoor seating area a portion of which is covered which I assume they use during the winter (rainy season) because the indoor seating area is very small. Make your reservations early, this is a very popular spot. A friend told us that Harvest Moon Cafe was the best food in Sonoma, and we definitely agree. Also, during the summer they show classic movies on Wednesday nights which is great fun.
We had a terrific dinner at Harvest Moon in Sonoma. Ate on the back patio - it was slightly chilly outside but the heaters made it very comfortable. As expected, the wine list was interesting with many by-the-glass offerings. We shared the tangy beet salad to start with a basket of excellent bread. SO had the ribeye which he declared perfect (medium rare) and I had the lamb - also perfect. Couldn't leave without dessert. The seasonal pumpkin bread pudding w/maple ice cream was unbelievable! Service was friendly and seamless. Will come again when we get back to Sonoma.
We had an amazing meal. Found this restaurant through Yelp reviews. We have often been to places that claim "farm to table" but this was out of this world. We sat right next to the open kitchen at a high table so we were able to see all the dishes being prepared. Great flavors where you could taste all the ingredients. Truly a great meal!
Being from Sonoma this was just one of the places I had to take my friend visiting from London for dinner. We Enjoyed all the food so much we couldn't believe it actually had existed. Honestly Bouillabaisse that savory is hard to come by. But because the menu changes daily, it's always worth going back.
Great starters and entrees. Desserts were avearage. Great but small wine list. Try the Trueheart Petite Syrah - off the charts!!
The risotto is perfect - when warm, the taste is sublime. Now, the outside area needs some work. When I was there, I noticed a few simple things they could do to make a measured difference. 1. Figure out the tent flaps. The wind was blowing a bit, and the clear plastic tent flaps were distractingly moving around creating noise. 2. There is nothing attractive about a concrete floor. First, make sure it is flat (from where I was sitting in my chair, I don't think it was. Second, add a wood flooring (or if subject to rain/water, a nice removeable carpet). 3. The use of intentional lighting could do a lot to make the space more romantic and inviting. I hope to visit again soon.
It's a tiny restaurant with an odd layout. Perhaps it was a long, narrow bar in a previous life? Expect to be close to other diners. The service was excellent - the waiter was well informed and very attentive. They have a short menu but everything was exceptionally fresh - the greens in my salad were just amazing. If you can't make up your mind for the main course, choose the Shepherd's Pie. It is to die for. Not something I would normally have chosen but am so glad I did.
This was our first time here. We picked it because of good reviews and it more than met our expectations. The food is locally sourced and creative. The menu changes daily based on what is fresh and available. The serve staff was friendly and attentive. I wish this restaurant was a little closer to home, but we will definitely come back.
First time visit for this native Sonoman. We arrived at 8pm and were seated in back patio. The service was great until we received the wrong food. Waiter recovered nicely and we got our correct food shortly after. Wine list was nice and the food portions were just right. Bread was excellent, and we enjoyed out night out.
We were greeted with smiles and seated right on time in the patio area. Our server was curteous, pleasant, and professional. Each dish we ordered was delicious and introduced us to new flavors, preparations, combinations, etc. using local products. Quintessentially Sonoma.
The freshness and taste of our meal was outstanding. The best restaurant in Sonoma!
Great for local and seasonal foods that are well prepared.
Harvest Moon Café is a jewel on the Sonoma Square. This Chef owned restaurant has seasonal menus that are consistently excellent and innovative. At Harvest Moon, local ingredients are combined to create dishes that will stay in your memory long past the meal has been finished. The desert and pastry menu is just as innovative and excellent as the savory menu. The service is top notch and enthusiastic. In the warmer months, the outdoor patio is delightful. Don't miss some of the best food in Sonoma County at the Harvest Moon Café.
How can you go wrong with 3 kinds of duck? HMC didn't!! My bf and I went to dinner there on a yelp recommendation and it was spot on: fast service, great staff, delicious food. Great place to check out if you're in town.
Always hesitant to take husband to highly rated restaurants, but this small place hit the mark. His home town has grown up and joined the ranks! Staff was great, food was excellent. Will definitely return for an encore.

When the first U.S. military convoy rolled into 8-year-old Saad Kareem's middle class neighborhood in Baghdad nearly a decade ago, he was scared, even as others around him whistled and danced.
Saad's family is Shiite, and the U.S. invasion brought hope for political and religious freedoms they'd missed under Saddam Hussein's Sunni-dominated regime.
"I was with my mother at the time, holding my mother's hand very tight. I was so scared because I thought that they were coming to kill us," recalled Saad, now 17. "But when I saw my mother smiling, I relaxed."
The safety Saad felt in that moment proved elusive: First there was war, then sectarian strife that pitted Sunni extremists against Shiite militants and brought Iraq to the brink of civil war.
Then came the official end of the war. On December 31, 2011, the country celebrated "Iraq Day" and the departure of U.S. troops. As Iraq prepares to mark the anniversary, also known as the "Day of Sovereignty," last year's celebratory tone has been replaced by a more somber one.
Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's political bloc, the Islamic Dawa Party, called on Iraqis not to become divided along sectarian or ethnic lines by "malicious schemes." The country has struggled to define itself, as its government stumbles from one political crisis to another.
Just as the last U.S. troops withdrew, al-Maliki, a Shiite, moved to arrest Vice President Tariq al-Hashimi, a Sunni, who al-Maliki accused of using his security detail as a hit squad.
More recently, a few days before the first Iraq Day anniversary, thousands of Sunnis took to the streets in Anbar province, a major trade thoroughfare to Jordan and Syria, to protest al-Maliki's order to arrest the bodyguards of Finance Minister Rafaie Esawi, a Sunni. The arrest of Esawi's bodyguards came just hours after President Jalal Talabani, a Kurd who is widely viewed as a stabilizing political force in Iraq, left the country to undergo treatment for cancer in Germany.
Iraq's Arab Sunnis and Kurds have accused al-Maliki and his Shiite political party of working to consolidate power in Iraq by cutting them out of the political process, an allegation that comes as U.S. lawmakers raise concerns about Iraq strengthening its ties with Shiite-dominated Iran.
One year after U.S. troops left, much about a post-war Iraq remains unclear -- for the Iraqis recovering from war, and still facing bombs and battles; for Americans re-adjusting to life in the United States and wondering whether their work was worthwhile.
This time last year, there was cautious optimism among Saad's family members. It seemed possible the political instability and violence that plagued Iraq might ebb. In its place, Saad's family hoped a safer, more stable Iraq would emerge.
Today, at Saad's all-male high school in central Baghdad, talk routinely centers on the latest bombing or bubbling sectarian tensions -- Sunni versus Shiite, Arab versus Kurd. There are concerns, Saad said, about the possible return of al Qaeda in Iraq, a group of primarily Sunni extremists bent on reigniting sectarianism. The latest political crisis is split along sectarian lines and has raised fears that political strife could translate into violence on the streets.
Even with a dramatic decline in violence in Iraq from the height of the war, bombings and gun battles remain a near-daily occurrence. A car bomb killed Saad's best friend, and he's no longer allowed to walk to school. His father drives him instead.
Saad has vowed after graduating high school, he will leave Iraq. For good.
"Sometimes," Saad said, "I ask myself why God did not create me in another country."
'I don't think ... I really understood it'
U.S. Army Spec. Brittany Hampton looked out the window of the armored vehicle as it rolled down the highway.
Somehow, it was fitting that the 22-year-old woman who had seen her father off for the start of the Iraq war almost nine years earlier would be among the very last soldiers in the very last vehicle in the very last convoy to leave the country.
"I don't think that day I really understood it," she said nearly a year later.
Hampton, a medic, knew crossing from Iraq into Kuwait meant the end of the war for her and her fellow soldiers. But the historic nature of the moment hit her months later, when she was standing in front of the vehicle nicknamed "Praetorian 7" for the elite Roman guard unit that once protected Roman emperors.

3 killed in Illinois medical helicopter crash
Chopper crashes near city of Rochelle
UPDATED 2:29 AM CST Dec 11, 2012
A medical helicopter crashed Monday night in northern Illinois, killing all three crew members, authorities said.
A pilot and two flight nurses were on board the chopper when it crashed near the city of Rochelle, about 75 miles west of Chicago, the Federal Aviation Administration said. The helicopter was not carrying any patients at the time.
The copter, which was registered to Rockford Health System, was flying from Rockford to a hospital in Mendota.
The cause of the crash is unknown. The FAA will deploy a team early Tuesday to investigate.

It's Tubing Time in Texas!!
Join us for our first big float of the summer! We'll be cruising down the Guadalupe River, taking in the scenery and enjoying each other's company. It's the perfect way to kick off Summer 2012!
We are estimating about 3-4 hours on the river, but this, of course, will depend on the flow.
12:30: Meet in parking lot at Academy south and arrange carpools.
If you do not want to go to eat after the float, make sure you get into a car with someone else who is going directly home!
1:30: Arrive at River Sports Tubes, check-in, get tubes and take shuttle to put-in point.
5-6pm: We will get out of the river and take shuttle back to our cars
Those interested can go eat - rest can head home.
1. Do NOT bring valuables or car keys on the river! Be sure to leave valuables at home and car keys with River Sports Tubes. They will hold our keys for us.
2. Do NOT bring styrofoam or glass! The fine is $500 for either of these, and they do enforce this.
3. Make sure to wear a strap for your eye/sunglasses.
4. Bring plenty of water. You will be in the sun for 4 hours! If you drink only beer, you will have an incredible headache from dehydration.
5. On that note....be responsible!! Please drink responsibly if you are driving!!
6. Since we will be on the river for a while, I recommend bringing snack for the ride.
7. Bring your own drinks (alcoholic and non-), ice, cooler. You may want to find someone to share a cooler tube. You may also want to bring a length of rope to tie your cooler tube.
8. Price includes one tube with a bottom and the shuttle fee
9. If you prefer a raft, you will need to make these arrangements with River Sports Tubes directly.

Eight fishermen are safe after being rescued from the ice of the bay of Green Bay Monday morning.
According to WLUK-TV, the New Franken Fire Department says it was called to Bay Shore Park around 9:40 am. An ice floe had broken away, stranding the people in two groups. Two more fishermen had jumped the crack and were able to get off the ice by themselves. The rest of the fishermen were brought to shore around 11 am.
Rescuers say one chunk of ice was about the size of a football field; the other was larger.

The following is a list of assignments that incorporate information literacy objectives, and that can be easily adapted to a variety of scholarly disciplines. See also, Characteristics of Effective Information Literacy Assignments, and DNY Research Topics.
Anatomy of a Research Paper. Students plan and perform research, without actually writing a paper. Tasks include developing a research question, providing an annotated bibliography of sources, and writing an introduction, thesis statement, and conclusion. May be used as a stand-alone assignment, or as preparation for a research project. Download assignment.
Comparing Periodical Database and Internet Search Results. Helps students appreciate the differences between the information found on the "free" Web available through Web search engines such as Google, and information found in subscription periodical databases such as ProQuest Direct. Download assignment.
Critiquing Wikipedia. Requires students to provide in-depth criticism and analysis of a Wikipedia article. Students examine the bibliography of the Wikipedia entry to see how well it supports the entry itself, and then perform their own research to see if other sources either corroborate or dispute the claims made in the Wikipedia entry. This assignment addresses students research and critical analysis skills. Download assignment.
Examining Bias in Periodical Articles. Helps raise student awareness of bias in the media, while also honing database research skills. Students locate and cite one article from a conservative publication, and another on the same topic from a liberal publication. Students then compare and contrast, and evaluate the two articles. Download assignment.
Evaluating Research. Students find two scholarly articles on the same topic, and in a short paper, compare, contrast and evaluate the two articles according to the quality of their research. This assignment helps sharpen students' skills of critical evaluation, and helps them appreciate the importance of good research. Download assignment.
Letter to the Editor. Teaches writing, critical thinking, and research skills. Without doing any research, students write a letter in which they take a position on a contemporary issue. Students then share letters with their classmates, with whom they give and receive feedback on ways that the letter could be substantiated and improved. Students then develop a short research paper from the letter. Download Assignment.
NYC Neighborhood Profile. Students use a variety of resources, including field trips, books, historical newspaper articles, and Web sites to create a profile of any New York City neighborhood of their choice. This assignment can be modified to be a group project, and may be delivered orally. Download Assignment.
Research in Reverse. This assignment uses Professor Robert Tomes' New York City: A Brief History, and requires students to provide footnotes for the text, which is lacking them. This assignment teaches students the importance of citing, not only to avoid plagiarism but to substantiate claims and strengthen arguments. Download assignment.
Researching an Individual from New York City History. This assignment teaches students how to perform biographical research in the context of New York City history, though it could be easily adapted to other course subject matter as well. It requires students to use primary source material, scholarly journal articles, and integrates both RefWorks and Turnitin. Download assignment.
Researching Public Opinion with Historical Newspapers. Students choose a present-day issue or concern relating specifically to New York City, and using historical newspaper articles, trace the history of public opinion on the issue, showing how it has changed or remained the same over time. Students present their findings in a short research paper of roughly 1500 words, or 6 pages. This gives students experience with the challenges of original research, where evidence is often fragmentary or incomplete. Download assignment.
Summarizing an Article or Book. Students write a brief summary of a book or article read in class, in which they include a brief paraphrase of the author's thesis. This assignment sharpens both reading and writing skills, and teaches students how to use words economically, since the summary cannot exceed a maximum number of words. It also reinforces the importance of the thesis, not only in term papers, but in all academic writing. Download assignment.
Modify an Existing Assignment. The following page shows how an existing research assignment can be easily modified to foster improved Information LIteracy skills in students. Modifying Research Assignments for Improved Information Literacy.

I have a slab foundation and need To move the refrigerator water line To the opposite wall can I run it In the attic and how would I do it? | |||
in the warm desert, yes. in cold zones like Minnesota, emphatically heck, no. water line has to be run in a temperate zone or it will freeze out and flood you. you can cut a strip of drywall off walls, drill for flex line, run it from any likely location, put protector plates over those stud locations where you drilled in the water line, and rerock the wall. do NOT use those laughable "saddle valves" that put holes in your pipes. run a half inch line over to the fridge, use the correct shutoff that goes down to a quarter-inch compression fitting, and then your fridge connection. saddle valves are against code in many places, and against common sense everywhere. sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
Can you run it behind cabinets to get where you need to? | ||||
It is on the other side of kitchen | ||||
up and over you can tape a heat trace line to the pipe its a wire that will keep the pipe warm heat trace it and insulate it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1geyoxeifk0&list=TLCjiCHNF4Km-K01r9YCvOX7MfpQ97FJEt | ||||

Raiders win fifth straight on homecoming
Editor and Publisher
Benton Academy used an explosive first half while holding off a second half rally to defeat Greenville Christian 26-14 and chalk up a fifth straight victory.
Kent Manor led the Raiders with 19 carries for 205 yards and three touchdowns.
"We came out really strong, but we didn't maintain the same intensity throughout the game," said Raiders head coach Wayman Grantham. "I felt like we had a lot of distractions with it being homecoming, and we didn't always play our best game. But a win's a win. We'll take it whether it's pretty or ugly."
The Raiders were immediately on the offensive as Bo Dickerson carried the ball inside the 20 on the first play of the game.
Manor followed with a 17-yard touchdown to make it 6-0 with 11:35 to go in the first quarter.
Manor was just getting warmed up.

Sunburned and loving it
Mileage: 37.3
January mileage: 893.4 (Oh, so close)
Temperature upon departure: 30
Climbing up from Sheep Creek today, I was trying to determine the strange sensation boiling up from my core. I held my hand over my eyebrows as I squinted into the blaze of sun. The gesture made me think of sunglasses. Sunglasses? I remember sunglasses. People wear sunglasses in the summer. Summer? I remember summer. It's hot in the summer. Hot? I remember hot. Could I possibly be hot?
Shortly thereafter, I started peeling layers off. I have a great clothing system in place that compensates for the nuances of even a couple of degrees. But it doesn't take into account dry weather and direct sunlight. First went the PVC layer. Then the gloves. Then the balaclava.
Suddenly, I was having all sorts of strange sensations. The wind flowing gently through my hair. A pleasant chill on my ungloved fingers as they clutched the cold handlebars. The warmth of sunlight on my bare skin. That sunlight, seeping into surfaces on me that are never exposed, ignited a rush of melanin that made me feel like I was out in the heat of July.
After my ride was over, I set to scrubbing the thick mask of slush grime from my face, just like I do every day. As the gray grit sloughed off, a tell-tale pink hue began to emerge.
I'm normally one of those people who becomes horrified at the prospect of even a minor skin burn. But, now ... well ... I don't even think the stores here stock sunscreen.
Even my coworkers noticed my new, healthy glow. "You look like you got some sun!" they exclaimed. To us pasty-faced Alaskans, it's the ultimate badge of honor.

Congrats on such a huge mileage total...in January no less. You should be more than ready for the SU100 now! Good luck!
- Coelecanth said...
I live in Edmonton, Alberta Canada. To most people I just say I live in the north, that is to anyone who doesn't live in the real north like you.
Last night the temp dropped to -20c and I had to scramble to find all the bits and pieces of my cold weather layers. Why would one overmitt be in it's proper place while the other was hiding behind the box of cat litter in the basement? The perversity of inamimate objects is going to drive me to drink.
Anyway, enjoy the peeling, both dermal and sartorial. - 12:28 PM

Jill...Great January mileage. It'll really help you do great in the SU100.

We've negotiated with them to bring you unprecedentedly good deals on brands like Belstaff, Roof, Stylmartin, Draggin Jeans, Givi Helmets, Tucano Urbano and Momo helmets.
If you're a Hell For Leather subscriber, you'll be able to take advantage of the following discounts:
Any Belstaff jacket: free worldwide shipping or free Belstaff Classic Gloves (a $93 value).
Any Roof Boxer V8 helmet: free worldwide shipping or a free tinted visor (a $63 value).
Any Stylmartin boots: free boot protector.
All other products: contact Urban Rider for a personal discount.
As you can see these deals are significant and apply to current and brand new products, not last year's unwanted leftovers. We've negotiated with Urban Rider to ensure these are the best possible deals available and apply only to HFL subscribers.
In addition to the deals listed above, Urban Rider is offering Hell For Leather subscribers a personalized shopping service. To take advantage of it, email Will Starritt and Andrew Taylor at email@example.com or call them on +44 208 736 3811 with your HFL username and they'll help tailor your purchase to give you the best possible products at the best possible prices.
As Urban Rider is already selling its products at or close to the minimum prices its suppliers allow them to advertise, this personal service will allow you access to deals so good we can't print them here.
Urban Rider is offering subscribers these deals through Hell For Leather's new Lagniappe program. Instead of pursuing advertising money to line our own pockets, we're leveraging our influence, readership and relationships to bring you access to unprecedented bargains. No money changes hands between Hell For Leather and retailers participating in the Lagniappe program, the budget they would otherwise spend to advertise is instead passed directly to you. Lagniappe is an invitation-only program, we'll only be including companies that we feel serve our readership uniquely well. Your personal details are not shared with Lagniappe partner companies.
What the hell is a 'Lagniappe'? It's a Louisiana French word that means a small gift given to a customer by a business. It's our way of saying thanks to our subscribers.
To take advantage of these bespoke discounts, subscribe, visit Urban Rider to decide which products you're interested in, then email firstname.lastname@example.com or call +44 208 736 3811 with your HFL username.
