Skin-it-to-win-it was a super fun day up on Dollar Mtn. I raced in a 4-person team that ended up on top at the end of the day. Each member of the team took turns racing to the summit of dollar and skiing back down. Our team turned in 13 laps in 3 hours. There was only one other snowboarder in the race and he made an impressive showing in the solo race category. Prizes were cool, commodore was great and the outdoor community continues to be the coolest people on earth.

It's amazing how warm 20F feels after the deep freeze of late. Riding our bikes to work every morning I realized I have a pretty good streak of riding my bike to the office every day since I took the position in September. Windbreakers turned to ski jackets and then full puffy's and snow pants. As my eyes watered and my eyelashes froze shut one morning I realized goggles were necessary and now I don't leave the house without them.
This last week, however, has felt downright tropical as temperatures jumped 60 degrees into the mid forties during Jerrod's visit. We skinned back to The Mushroom in Galena Pass sweating in t-shirts. The following day was much the same as we trenched through 40 cm of facets weakened and angled by our weeks of subzero temperatures.
The smell of earth has returned for the first time in weeks, and the roads are fast with only small patches of ice on the corners we know to expect it. Tomorrow we will head to Ketchum for the Skin it to Win It Randonee race to benefit the Avy Center and kick off the Nordic Festival. I will be a part of a 4 person team including the forecasters of the SNFAC as we complete as many laps as we can from the bottom to the top of Dollar Mountain.
The Nordic Festival will bring all sorts of fun events to the valley including the Banff Mountain Film Festival which Robyn and I always look forward to if we are near a showing.
With the warmth in the wind though brings thoughts of hiking, bikes and climbing. Today Robyn and I checked out the YMCA climbing wall and had a blast getting ridiculously pumped after a 3 week hiatus from the rock. Fresh pump in my forearms got me thinking ahead to my goals for 2013.. And with the nice ring of 20 twelves in 2012, why not shoot for a 5.13 in 2013? Along with our climbing goals, we also have a few others up our sleeve – one of which is already underway. A few weeks back Robyn and I enrolled in a Spanish course and have been supplementing it with online games and trainings. By the end of the year we plan to spend two weeks in Mexico climbing (hopefully with some of you) in El Potrero Chico.
I wont write down anymore of our goals just yet, because I am a firm believer in sticking with them once they are set in ink (or Times New Roman). Some of these will take a bit more planning and prep, and I don't want us to spread our psych to thin. Let's just say at this point there is no lack of motivation to get out and explore.
Central Idaho: Be Still My Beating Heart.
The jury is still out regarding the best part of this weekend. Was it the 2011 The Abyss from Deschutes? Was it two days of stunning blue skies and perfect powder at Galena Summit? It could certainly have been the true satisfaction of sharing my love for the snow with the Sawtooth Avalanche Center's awareness course on Saturday. It is such a great feeling to share your enthusiasm with a class and have it met with equal excitement, thoughtful questions, and new discoveries. Equally satisfying were the enchiladas Robyn greeted me with upon my return from the field, a New Belgium Snow Day (this winter's best new brew) in hand and the Backcountry Film Festival at the Liberty Theater that followed.
Of course today wasn't shabby either, a lazy morning and cold -15F start that nipped our cheeks and froze the breath in our nostrils. As Trixie finally warmed up we were already at Galena summit snapping pictures of the immaculate view of the Boulder Mountains and nearby Smokey Mountains and Sawtooth Headwaters. Starting up the trail our gear creaked and our coats crackled, stiff and brittle as an old tarp. As we toured through the trees I remembered how much I love the forest. Climbing steadily, the trees thinned and the mountain views seemed to grow even more spectacular with each switchback. Our +9,000ft summit offered a 360 degree view of relatively untouched and infrequently traveled Idaho Wilderness. We have seen, skied, hiked and climbed in many mountain ranges all over the west but there is something special about this intersection of Central Idaho ranges.
After increasingly enjoyable laps on "The Cross" we cruised back to the car and rolled down to Galena Lodge. Galena Lodge is where it's at. Nordic trails spur in all directions leading to mountain huts and snaking valleys. The lodge is rustic, comfortable and warm. The staff and everyone lucky enough to spend time there can't help but exude a relaxed and cheery demeanor. Kids are sledding, dogs are hanging on a sunny porch and parents sit by the fireplace sipping beers amongst 36 miniature pairs of socks and ski gloves.
Back at home another homemade dish from Robyn wafts my direction from the kitchen. Our minds are whirling with potential adventures, mountain bikes, Nordic skis, summer summits, and backpacking trips. There are so many zones to explore, so many runs to do and miles of Nordic trails to learn on. It's hard to believe we only made it north of Ketchum a few times this fall – climbing tugged us further and further south as the temperatures reflected the dipping sun.
So what was the best part of this weekend? I guess it's hard to say, but in the spirit of living in the moment it's the homemade peanut satay vegetable pizza that just emerged from the oven…
I absolutely love winter. I love wool socks and foot booties. I love coffee beverages and teas. I adore colorful layers and Pendleton blankets. I love snow surfing, cross country skiing, and snowman building. I love it all. To me, 'this is the most wonderful time of year…'
Up until recently, however, my mind has been on climbing (we are gearing up for our two-week climbing trip to Red Rocks). My stoke is high. Maybe I've been a bit unfair to winter, but having the option to climb until late December and early January is pretty amazing, especially after feeling robbed of a climbing season in Valdez. It's been really nice. You can bet, however, that after our mega-trip to Nevada, we will be ready for the ski season – psyched as ever to explore new mountains, meet new people, and enjoy every frosty bit of it.
Last night, the weather gods opened their wintry gates and dumped only the very best kind of snow on us – light, fluffy, and delicious! They sure know how to get me psyched for the ski season. I am itching to get out there and play!
ULLR slideshow
Although we couldn't attend ULLR Fest in person this year we were there in spirit and put together a slideshow from last years record breaking winter in Valdez. It's hard to believe how beautiful Valdez is in the winter and how lucky we were to climb, ski and stare in wonder up at the peaks of the Chugach!

Split climboarding
Soupy day in The Pass had Benny and I splitting into a crag at the Worthington glacier to climb. Most of the climbs were wet but the best one (Sweet n' Sour 11b) was miraculously dry. Cornices were collapsing and falling from 80 feet above us on either side but our perch was snow free. We dug in a belay platform on 10 feet of snow and clipped into the second bolt to start the climb.
Dimond Gun Barrels
James didn't waste much time bagging one of the most sought after lines in Thompson Pass. Heli-skiers frequent Mt. Dimond and there are several ways down but arguably the most aesthetic of all are the "Gun Barrels". While within the realm of a day tour from the road, James and I wanted to try our hand at digging and staying in a snow cave up on the glacier for a few days to enjoy the sunny Chugach spring weather.
Day one was a grueling slog in the spring heat to get the sled to the glacier and build the shelter but man was it worth it. Cozy snow living with a hell of a backdrop. Plus no hurry to get out the door or get down from our lines since we could literally ski to our front door from dozens of chutes including the Gun Barrels.
Day two we set our sights on the Gun Barrels. Meeting with the Brown Brothers at the Shrund we deliberated on how to cross the massive crack in the glacier to continue up our lines.
The Brown's took the first chute to a saddle below the summit while James and I traversed out above the schrund to our line and began the long ~3,000 ft bootpack to the summit. The weather turned for the worse and by the time we reached the top it was whiteout and lightly snowing. With no hurry to get to the car we decided to try and wait out the snows hoping it was just a passing shower. After an hour on the snowy summit however we decided to bite the bullet and pick our way down the 55 deg spine entrance into the chute below.
The line itself was absolutely sick. The upper spine was steeper than we wanted to deal with in a whiteout but we picked our way down the bootpack using the definition in our quickly filling footprints to navigate by. Once on the main face the turns to the entrance of the gun barrel were some of the best I have ever had. Steep, deep and butter smooth. The chute provided more contrast and we were able to open it up a bit, carving our way back to the schrund in two large sections. Back at the schrund we had planned to air the crevasse, but with flat white conditions we were forced to traverse its edge again as new snow sluffs went zipping by off the steep rocks above – certainly a hair raising experience.

I landed a gig guiding clients up Rydor's on East Peak visible from town in a Piston Bully 300 for 907 Snowcat. Here are some pics from our first day out.
Also completed our final courses for the Introduction to Backcountry Skiing course (ODS 121) I taught through PWSCC. Great class! It was really fun to see everyone gain confidence. After our last course we stopped in at the new Tsiana Lodge to rub shoulders with rich European heli-skiers and sit on leather couches. This weekend is a 3 day weekend for Robyn and I and we may find ourselves in Fairbanks for a long procrastinated visit. A job I applied for as a Snow Ranger on Mount Washington closed today. Fingers crossed. Other prospects are Chile and possibly Ketchum or Lander. What's next? Nobody knows.
Two-fer Tuesday
Ski update. This spring is shaping up to be the best ski conditions Valdez has seen in several years. Hopefully it stays nice for all our friends planning their AK dream trips come March and April. We are playing host for several groups of friends rolling up here starting with a friend of a friend for a week starting the 24th of this month. A bit of a break and James will arrive for 3 weeks, and the last two of those during Tailgate Alaska he will be joined by Curry, Bubbles, Jerrod and Theo. As soon as they ship out Ben literally gets here the same day during the start of the World Heli Challenge and we are planning a hut based boat-in boat-out ski trip out at some cabins in the sound.. So much to look forward to in the final months of winter.
Here are some recent photos of our ski trips here lately. A highlight was standing on top of both Tones Temple and Sapphire in the same day with Sarah. We skied the NE face of Tones and then broke trail to the summit that gave us both frostbite last year. The most amazing position I have experienced in The Pass to date. Been soaking it all in but also looking forward to our big climbing road trip coming up this spring… More on that later!
Ski Porn
Latest pictures from around these parts. Went up right behind the house with Robyn and members of our AIARE Level 1 that we held earlier this year. Explored some steep terrain in hopes of finding an easy up track. We didn't get anything easy but the steep skinning and short bootpack at the top provided some EXCELLENT turns. Robyn is a natural in the up-track, looks as if she was born to tour!
A couple days later Sarah and I tried to access the goods behind the house again. Skinned through a wild old-growth stand and battled our way to the first bench… No luck on an easy up-track yet, but we did have an exciting run down an area that had me pointing pillow lines with little room for error next to an ice fall..
Yesterday I skied out Mineral Creek with Aaron and Stu to try and access a peak behind Jago Chute. 2.5 miles along the creek bottom led us to a 4,700 ft climb to a wild perch on a sweet spine. In the ONLY semi technical point of the climb my crampon came off my boot and provided momentary high blood pressure as I punched in for handholds. No summit option from where we were but the pow was memorable nonetheless and Jago Chute is top notch skiing from the cirque 2,000 ft or so to the valley bottom.

Somthing I find that is very annoying in game is well simply when operating as a commander/loader on tanks an u spot a inf target etc an goto to shoot em only to have your sight picture yanked the other way from the gunner traversing to a differnt direction. I know for a fact thats not accurate to rl armor. Typically gunner/commander/loader all have assigned sectors to cover on the tank. So I think this is somthing that should be re-thought-added to ArmA3.

Getting To Maybe: How to Excel on Law School Examsby: Richard Michael Fischl, Jeremy Paul
Editorial Review:
Professors Fischl and Paul explain law school exams in ways no one has before, all with an eye toward improving the reader's performance. The book begins by describing the difference between educational cultures that praise students for 'right answers,' and the law school culture that rewards nuanced analysis of ambiguous situations in which more than one approach may be correct. Enormous care is devoted to explaining precisely how and why legal analysis frequently produces such perplexing situations.But the authors don't stop with mere description. Instead, Getting to Maybe teaches how to excel on law school exams by showing the reader how legal analysis can be brought to bear on examination problems. The book contains hints on studying and preparation that go well beyond conventional advice. The authors also illustrate how to argue both sides of a legal issue without appearing wishy-washy or indecisive. Above all, the book explains why exam questions may generate feelings of uncertainty or doubt about correct legal outcomes and how the student can turn these feelings to his or her advantage.In sum, although the authors believe that no exam guide can substitute for a firm grasp of substantive material, readers who devote the necessary time to learning the law will find this book an invaluable guide to translating learning into better exam performance.

Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA), makers of award-winning dairy products under the Tillamook® brand name, announced that its production facilities in Tillamook and Boardman, Ore., were awarded Safe Quality Food (SQF) Level 2 certification under the Global Food Safety Initiative.
"Tillamook's commitment to producing the highest quality dairy products starts by ensuring that the products are safe," stated Mark Wustenberg, TCCA's vice president of quality and member services. "We recognize that consumers are more knowledgeable about the source of the food they eat, how that food is prepared and if it is safe for their family. Achieving SQF certification validates our food safety program."
SQF certification is achieved when a company demonstrates exceptional quality control and food safety practices. A third-party audit is conducted by a qualified inspector to evaluate different aspects of a company's food safety program, including: personnel practices, plant maintenance and cleanliness, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HAACP) plans, and food safety programs. It provides validation to many national and international retailers and food service providers that a company has food safety programs in place and that those programs are followed. SQF is a globally recognized certification as a food safety management system and is administered by the SQF Institute.
"Achieving SQF certification validates our food safety program and exemplifies our continued commitment to providing safe, high quality dairy products to the marketplace. This is an achievement of which our farmer-owners and employees can all be proud," said Wustenberg.
TCCA's Tillamook plant, which is also the site of the company's headquarters, received its certification in October. The Boardman plant, known as Columbia River Processing, Inc., received Level 2 certification in August.
About Tillamook County Creamery Association
Established in 1909, the Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA) is a cooperative of 110 dairy farming families guided by century-old values of quality, cooperation, integrity, stewardship and responsiveness. Quickly becoming one of the top dairy brands in the country, Tillamook is most famously known for its award-winning, naturally aged Tillamook cheddars and also offers a variety of other cheeses, ice cream, butter, sour cream, and yogurt.

Alek's Controllable Christmas Lights for Celiac Disease are BACK!

Scott Adams
In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease, and since then it has become an invaluable resource to people worldwide who seek information about celiac disease and the gluten-free diet.
In 1998 I created The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore! which was also another Internet first—it was the first gluten-free food site to offer a shopping cart-style interface, and the ability for people to order gluten-free products manufactured by many different companies at a single Web site.
I am also co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.
Once again, three live webcams and X10 technology allows web surfers to not only view the action, but also *control* 20,000+ lights. Heck, you can even inflate/deflate the giant 12' Santa, Elmo, Frosty Family,
fifteen foot ballloon, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Homer Simpson - D'OH!
The website is totally free (and totally fun) and is one of my zany ways of raising awareness & soliciting donations for Celiac Disease:
my two sons have this condition, so it's personal for me.
If folks are so inclined, you can make an optional donation directly to the University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research. Over $40,000 has been raised with ... holiday lights - go figure!
While people around the world (152 countries last year) enjoy seeing the lights ON, environmentalists will be happy to know that they can turn the lights OFF with a click of the mouse. Better yet, this is the 6th year I'm using Wind Power and even though that is "clean" energy, I even did a Carbon Offset contribution for the 0.6 Tons of CO2 for the ~MegaWatt-Hour of power consumed - that's about the same as *one* cross-country airline trip. Finally, by providing viewing via webcam, you don't need to burn fossil fuels by driving around to see Christmas lights; Al Gore would be proud!
But HEY, the couple bucks a day in electrical costs are well worth the joy it brings to people (especially the kids) when they see the display in person and/or on the web. There's even a Hi-Def option, so gather your family around the large screen and open up some Eggnog as the chestnuts are roasting on an open fire.
So surf on by, tell your friends, blog about it, spread the word, etc. Merry Christmas and HO-HO-HO!
P.S. One notable event in 2008 was winning the nationwide Kentucky Fried Chicken Christmas Lights contest which had a first prize of $1,000 (donated to Celiac Disease Research) plus free KFC (extra crispy buckets - BURP!) for a year - as Fox News put it: "Clark Griswold move over - a Lafayette family can now officially lay claim to the best Christmas Lights Display in the entire country" (my wife would say most tackiest.
As always, Celiac.com welcomes your comments (see below).

Online Secondary School
Many of us have often heard online colleges and their courses, but online secondary schools seem to be something new. Not really new but yes, they are something that most of us are not aware about and don't hear commonly of. Distant learning programs for secondary school kids have now gained a lot of popularity and are gradually becoming the most opted mode of studying. Many of the online secondary schools have been started by private companies to be used by private, homeschooled or public students.
Online secondary school courses make more sense for a few categories of students than the others. Some of these categories are:
* Homeschooled Students - the parents of homeschooled students can select courses in those areas which they are unfamiliar about.
* Athletes or other such students who are unable to attend regular school or are away from school most of the time. Online secondary school classes can even be taken on the road.
* Students who fall ill time and again r those who have some major illnesses and have to get treated for the same.
* Students who face issues with the setting of the classes in traditional secondary schools.
* Students who have previously filed a class and have to make up for it.
Looking into the advantages of online secondary schools, there are numerous. Firstly, the students can study according to their convenience, their pace, their capabilities and their own schedule. Studying this way is definitely more fun and exciting as most of the children who go to regular schools these days crib about the timings, the schedule, the pressure and of course waking up early. With online secondary schools, you can choose your own timings.
The most common priority of the people who think of taking up an online studying course is the standards of the online school. They want the standards of online secondary schools to meet the state standards. Most of the companies do provide the enrollers with all the information on the standards that their classes meet and if they don't, it is a clear indication to you not to join it. Look for other better options, which would satisfy you and be the best for your child.
Online secondary schools are the ideal idea for students as well as parents. Make the most of all these wonderful opportunities that you get in life!

"We all know what Brotzmann does; that astonishing burst of energy which seems to boil out of the bell of his saxophone, that extreme sensitivity masquerading as bully-boy macho antics. His is one of the most extraordinary voices on the instrument around, and although well-known, his real talents are regularly underreported because of a tendency to view his playing in terms of noise, punky high-volume confrontation and retro-Aylerisms.
Well, this disk isn't going to change that perception for those who are still in the dark about Brotzmann's towering achievements. Only one track, entitled "A Real Dilemma, This One", reminds us of his ability to play slowly, carefully, and with extreme sensitivity to the reed. As often happens, it's the tarogato which leads him into this more reflective frame of mind. But even that track is a slow-burning whiskey ballad which Brotzmann growls his way through as if looking for someone to start a fight with. That coiled energy is a part of what makes him so special; it's unlike anything else in the world, and the suspicious would do well to start here.
Elsewhere, then, the wonderfully barrel-chested sound of the Brotzmann tenor is allowed to roam free. Nielsen is a free jazz drummer, with Andrew Cyrille's ability to swing even when the pulse seems almost lost, but he's a much sparser player than that early generation with their attachments to ride cymbals still strong. He seems able to describe the rhythm of the music with the smallest of gestures; an extremely valuable player.
Uuskyla plays bass like a percussion instrument, hitting it hard and staying, for the most part, in the bottom register where pitch can come second to attach and articulation. He seems to really love playing with Nielsen -- this writer suspects they're a regular duo -- and Brotzmann audibly enjoys their company. In short, the three lock together tightly and cook.
Nobody works harder than Brotzmann, and he makes his playing partners sweat just as hard as he does. Fortunately, it seems that neither Uuskyla nor Nielsen is afraid of hard work, and they pitch in with the kind of muscular, driving free jazz which makes the reedsman feel at home. A twenty-minute piece which moves between furious blowing and gentle passages with a sense of inevitable destiny crowns an excellent and very generously filled-out CD. Fans will find it essential; if you haven't heard Brotzmann yet, here's where to get on the bus. Highly recommended."-Richard Cochrane, IIMA

JACK McKILLOP COLLECTION
No. 6863. Boeing 344 XPBB-1 Sea Ranger (3144 c/n 2129) US Navy
Photograph from Boeing
09/30/2007. Remarks by Jack Mckillop: "This was the largest twin-engine aircraft built up to the date of its first flight on July 9, 1942. Theoretically, the aircraft could fly for 72 hours with a fuel load of 9,575 US gal (7,973 Imp gal or 36,245 l). By the time it first flew, the USN realized that land-based aircraft were better suited to antisubmarine and transport duties and the order for 57 of these aircraft was cancelled. The planes were to be built in a new factory in Renton, Washington, and with the cancellation of the order, the plant was used to built B-29 Superfortresses. After the order for these aircraft was cancelled, this machine was named 'The Lone Ranger'." |

No longer just a regrettable Christmas gift from the grandmother, the Fair Isle sweater has made a leap "across the pond" and is invading the US like The Beatles. Born on the Shetland Islands in Scotland, the patterned sweater was made iconic by Edward VIII, who, while he wasn't abdicating thrones to marry divorcees, donned the sweater on his many golfing exhibitions around the world.
Genuinely authentic Fair Isle sweaters are hand knit by the gray-haired inhabitants of the small island of Fair Isle. And although these lady Scots can take up to 100 hours on a single sweater, lucky for us there have been a plethora of brands that have adopted the style. A Fair Isle sweater is now loosely defined as a brand of knit with horizontal bands of geometric patterns of multiple colors or shades.
Although the Fair Isle may have been pigeonholed as a "Christmas sweater" or even disrespected by its presence at an "ugly sweater" party, the pattern and style has resurfaced on the runway and in thrift stores. The look has become ubiquitous, from Cambridge art history majors to indie rockers, and worn by celebrities both on and off the camera.
A good Fair Isle is made with high-quality lightweight wool, Shetland wool for the authentic, and provides fantastic warmth without being too bulky. Although they are generally tightly knit, they can also be loosely knit for a cozier and more nostalgic feel.
The crew neck sweater is a staple in any fall wardrobe and the Fair Isle can add excitement to dreary fall solids. Fair Isles are perfect for layering in the fall weather, stylish over an oxford button down or under a corduroy blazer.
The Fair Isle is ideal for both the daring and the subtle dressers, some with brightly colored and intricately patterned options and others with more simple, muted styles. There are those with hooded collars, and ones with elbow pads for a touch of class. With the style adapted by high and low-end labels a Fair Isle sweater can be affordable or extravagant, fitting into any budget.
So welcome the fall weather and the upcoming holiday season with a throwback to Downton Abbey days and embrace our transatlantic cousin's style with a Fair Isle sweater.
Plus, enjoy the added bonus of potentially looking as heroic as Neville Longbottom.

Despite Defeat, Over 4 Million Californians Voted to End the Death Penalty
Yesterday, California's Proposition 34, an initiative to replace the death penalty with a sentence of life without parole, was narrowly defeated by a vote of 53 percent to 47 percent. Although a majority of voters chose to retain the death penalty, over four million Californians voted for repeal, representing a dramatic shift away from capital punishment.
The 1978 ballot initiative that enacted the state' death penalty statute passed with the support of 71 percent of the voters. In 1986, California Chief Justice Rose Bird was removed from office by 67 percent of voters because she was perceived as blocking the death penalty.
This change in public opinion in California that we witnessed yesterday matches declining support for the death penalty across the country. The most recent Gallup Poll shows a drop in support of the death penalty from 80 percent in 1994 to only 61 percent in 2011. Moreover, when respondents are given alternatives such as life without parole, support for capital punishment falls below 50 percent.
California's use of the death penalty has declined in recent years. Death sentences dropped from 40 in 1981 to only 10 in 2011, and the state has not carried out an execution since 2006. Nationwide, new death sentences dropped to 78 in 2011, a 75 percent decline since 1996, when 315 individuals were sentenced to death. This marks the first time since 1976 that the country produced fewer than 100 death sentences in one year. Executions have also steadily decreased nationwide, with 43 in 2011 and 46 in 2010, representing a 56 percent decline since 1999, when there were 98.
We are thankful for all of the hard work and education that was done by our colleagues in California, and we congratulate them on moving their state closer to repeal. The fact that such a large percent of Californians voted to end the death penalty is testament to the fact that people are increasingly concerned about the very real risk of executing the innocent, as well as the fairness and effectiveness of such a costly, broken system.

(Washington, DC)–Mayor Adrian M. Fenty, along with DDOT Director Gabe Klein, and DPW Director William O. Howland, Jr. spent time with District crews this morning to thank them for their efforts thus far in combating snow accumulations, some up to 26 inches, resulting from the massive storm that moved through the region this weekend.
"The crews are headed into their fifth shift this morning and have a lot of work ahead of them over the next few days, said Mayor Fenty. "I want to thank them for all their efforts so far and let everyone know they have the city's appreciation and support behind them as they continue to clear and remove the snow."
The Mayor and Directors also provided updates for snow removal plans now that the massive snow storm has moved out of the DC area. The storm dumped nearly 26 inches of snow in the District and crews are out in full force.
Nearly 270 pieces of equipment will continue to work in 12-hour shifts plowing, salting, and treating District roadways. DDOT and DPW have had 750 employees working throughout the storm and those crews will continue as removal efforts are underway.
"We had to focus all our efforts on maintaining the major roadways and highways," said DPW Director Howland. "Keeping those main routes passable allowed emergency response teams and our own crews access to the city during the height of the storm. Having those streets passable will now provide the access we need to get to the residential streets.
There are a number of key concerns and messages the District crews will need to contend with and the Mayor and Directors are asking residents and business owners to do their parts as well.
"Residents and property owners need to clear their sidewalks so pedestrians can get off the main roadways while our crews are out plowing streets," said DDOT Director Klein. "It is unsafe for people to be walking in the streets while over 250 trucks move about the city. We really need people to step up and assist in clearing public walkways."
Property owners have 8 hours after the end of a storm to clear sidewalks. Residents are reminded to please assist elderly and disabled neighbors. Also, take time when clearing sidewalks and take breaks when needed.
District officials also asked people to continue to stay off the roads in order to let crews full access to the roadways.

The ability to visualize the functional status of a physiological system in a living being is a powerful tool in the diagnosis, staging and treatment of a myriad of diseases. So called, molecular imaging (MI) embodies a number of imaging methods that enable clinicians to do just that - visualize and understand disease at the molecular level. An increasingly powerful modality for MI couples radioactive atoms (i.e., medical isotopes) with biologically active molecules. Historically, MI with nuclear techniques has relied on perfusion-based distribution and imaging studies; however, a growing number of targeted radiopharmaceuticals are finding their way into the clinical setting. Targeted imaging relies on the ability to incorporate radioactive atoms onto biologically specific targeting ligands, which shuttle the signal-generating radionuclide to the tissue of interest, creating sufficient contrast to produce useful medical images. This presentation will discuss new techniques that are making core technologies associated with MI more efficient, allowing chemists to work alongside biologists and clinicians to rapidly label and screen radiopharmaceuticals for diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, inflammation, cancer, and mental health. Some of the newer radiopharmaceuticals in or close to clinical trials will also be presented.

"Convenient location."
The room is very clean and the front desk staff members are very helpful and friendly, especially one gentleman (I forgot his name). We enjoyed our stay. The only thing we don't like is about the restaurant's staff members. They are not friendly at all.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Service Couldn't Have Been Better"
I want to stress in this review that the service at this hotel was beyond anything I have ever experienced. From booking tours for us to the desk clerk (sorry I never got his name) letting us use his personal cell phone to make several calls to travel agents and taxis, the staff at the Moonite is unparalleled in my opinion. Honestly, I can't say enough […] about how great we were treated from the moment we arrived until the moment we left (although we booked another night for our last night in Bangkok after a week in Ko Samui). We had a mini room, which was just that, but we needed a bed and a bathroom and that's what we got. We also had a desk and closet to store things. The food in the restaurant was very good - I recommend the pork with basil. It's not located in one particular hot spot, but is a short taxi or tuk tuk ride from all the major sites and night spots. I don't think you would be dissatisfied with your stay at this hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel in Bangkok"
I stayed two nights in the mini room. The room and shower size are not tiny (maybe it's slightly smaller than an average hotel room in North America) so I'm not sure why they named it the mini room. I think it's enough space for a couple. The decor are modern. Bed is comfy. Wifi is good enough for Skype. The only issue I found is that the floor was […] a bit dirty when I first arrived but they cleaned it after the first night. Their breakfast is good with plenty of choices. Front desk doesn't speak much English so don't rely on them for help. It's 5 min. walk to the skytrain station. The walk is on a sidewalk next to a road in a safe commercial area but not much foot nor car traffic. Never tried walking late at night. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Good renewed boutique hotel"
All remodeled and updated hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. We got a mini room that of course it is small but ok for two people. Bed is very comfortable. The breakfast is amazing. Great for the price, I would stay again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Bangkok Vacation"
Staff. I had a problem with my tour company. The staff worked closely with me to get a small refund from the company. Awesome. Also, I found them very friendly. Breakfast. they have a breakfast menu that allows you to select different breakfast items so you don't need to eat the same thing everyday you stay at the hotel. Room. The room was nice though […] I had a couple complaints: a large one and a smaller one. The smaller one -- I was in a mini-room and the window I had wasn't the best. An outside pillar went down the middle of the window so I couldn't even look outside. The larger one -- the toilet just wouldn't stop leaking water. Luckily, I had the air conditioner going on all night and I just closed the bathroom door, but if this was a hotel room in a country where I wouldn't have needed the air conditioner, the toilet running all night would have driven me crazy. There are plenty of TV channels so if you ever want to just take a break during the heat of the day, you can always catch a quick movie or watch CNN International. Metro. The BTS metro is a 10-15 minute walk. Very close. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great Hotel in Bangkok!"
Very nice recently constructed or remodeled hotel. We stayed in the smallest room which was perfect for two people. There was some street noise from the passing vehicles in the night but we are not accustomed to city life as we live on a very quite street, and I would bet that this is actually a fairly quite street for Bangkok standards. Staff is very […] helpful and went out of there way to make our stay enjoyable. We did eat breakfast one morning at the hotel and were very pleased. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk from the nearest BTS Skytrain station and the front desk will have a taxi for you waiting in a moments notice. We made it a point to check out the rooftop patio and were pleased to see that it had a great view of the city and was very well appointed. I would stay at Moonite again!

"Clean place, Nice staff, Good price"
Hotel is very clean and new, staff are very friendly, breakfast is good especially the juices and Meiji milk. The only downside is that the location is a distance from the nearest BTS and you would be drenched when it's raining. The hotel is nearer to the boat stand but the boat get crowded when it's raining. Nevertheless, overall a nice hotel and […] recommended. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Clean room, with great lobby personnel"
The rooms of the hotel are very clean and are properly cleaned up everyday by the hotel personnel. Room size is small (Mini room), but sufficient for 2. Opt for larger rooms if your budget allows. However, the bed was not so comfortable as we seem to have back aches after sleeping on it, hope this is just a one off case as the hotel is really very excellent […] in other ways. Breakfast provided is decent, with eggs, sausages, ham, chinese style rice and vegatables and meat, as well as some salads, cereals and toast. The lobby personnel are very helpful, and gave us great tips on how to get around bangkok. Location of the hotel is only average for the typical tourist who travels by skytrain around the city area, as it would require at least a 10min walk to the nearest station. However, the hotel's great location near the river taxi (1min away) makes up for it, as it is a very cheap and reliable form of transport to the main shopping belt, such as Platinium Mall and Pratunam Market. The hotel also has their own taxi driver who can bring us to the airport for 400THB, a good price for going to DMK airport, as well as a friendly driver along the way.

"Good location"
Convenient place to stay in Bangkok. Close to the sky train. Tip to travellers is to take the name of the nearest sky train station with you on a night out for the taxi drivers as they didn't seem to know where the hotel was!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"comfortable, convenient, helpful staff"
Rooms very clean, staff very friendly and helpful. Location is great--very close to skytrain, easy walking to restaurants, food stalls, shopping. Free wireless internet connection in room. Breakfast is provided. Breakfast has a buffet and several options, but all rather bland. I wish they had a spicy Thai breakfast dish.

混雑した感じがなくて落ち着いているのがいいです。朝食は十分満足できるもので、料金を考えたら本当にお得だと思います。部屋は大きなベッドが中心になっている感じで、狭く感じるかもしれませんが。一人で宿泊したので、部屋の広さは十分でした。予約の際、大人2人+子供1人のマークがありましたが、子供といっても添い寝ができるくらいの乳幼児までかな、と思います。 ホテルの周りに飲食店やコンビニがないので、買い物や夕食を済ませてから部屋に戻られるといいと思います。BTS駅からちょっとありますが、歩道が広く歩きやすかったです。スーツケースを転がすのもスムーズでした。Genuine Expedia guest review

"Fully satisfied!"
We stayed at The Moonite Boutique Hotel for one night before we get our fly back home from our vacation in Thailand. We were really satisfy with our stay. Everything was just perfect. From the street, the hotel look quit small, but when you come closer there is no finger to put on anything. The hotel is close to popular shopping malls ( 15 min by walking) […] and 5 min by walking to the skytrain, We took a taxi for only 400 THB to the Suvarnabhumi Airport. The staff was so helpful and kind, they was always smiling and again really helpful. The room was just perfect, really clean and comfy! It was modern, with a nice spa a like bathroom, big floor to ceiling window, frig, big tv, and a nice big bed. As an added bonus, the hotel also have an really nice rooftop balcony! we can highly recommend this hotel, and one thing for sure, if we are going back to Bangkok, we definitely will stay at The Moonite Boutique Hotel.

Hotellet ligger på ca 5-10 minuters avstånd från skytrain-stationen Phloen Chit och därmed Sukhumvit Road. Därifrån går det väldigt enkelt att ta sig runt i staden från ett redan centralt läge med det utomordentliga skytrain. Hotellet verkar väldigt nybyggt och har en skön design om ändå ganska enkelt.

房间特别新 非常干净 设施很现代布局合理,早餐很丰盛可口。住了三天,不足是房间没有窗,虽然有大落地窗,光线没有问题,但是封闭的,没有可以开启的小窗,不知道其他房间有没有。还是喜欢能通风的感觉。另外从酒店门口的路走到十字路口的天铁站,稍微有点远,十分钟左右。出门的时候还好,走了一天回来时候就觉得好远啊。但总的来说住的很舒服。比较推荐。Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Der Aufenthalt war gut. Sehr zufrieden..Genuine Hotels.com guest review
看到很多人說飯店到捷運站不只六分鐘時,我們決定實際測試,因為每天自己走真的覺得好久,後來發現從巷口走到飯店真的只要六分鐘,可能是因為白天逛太累的關係,所以覺得六分鐘跟30分鐘一樣久,有次從四面佛搭計程車回飯店只要37,但是走過去要15分鐘,所以我建議大家可以一群人坐計程車就好,體力不需要浪費在走路上~Genuine Hotels.com guest review
地點並不是很方便,由BTS步行需10分鐘,若晚上回酒店路上會很靜,如女孩子們會有些擔心,洗手間很狹窄,坐廁與面前幅牆很近,感覺很易碰到鼻,洗浴用品味道難聞,早餐普通,選擇不多,如要吃煎蛋,班戟,粥則需每次order,但職員態度很友善,wifi連接有点問題,一整天還未連上,以HK$450而言並不便宜。Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Classico CL-2 stand-mount monitor
Classico CL-C center channel
Classico CLS-12 subwoofer
Let me begin by mentioning a handful of key sonic characteristics that define the sound of the Gallo Classico system, while also mentioning a few small sonic caveats prospective buyers might want to know about.
The Gallo system offers excellent treble extension, with light, airy, open and articulate highs that provide plenty of inner detail. More importantly, the Classico main, center, and surround speakers share these qualities, probably because they also share the excellent CDT 3 tweeter. The only point I would mention, not as a flaw, but as a performance characteristic you won't find in many other non-Gallo speakers, is that the tweeter offers incredibly broad horizontal dispersion, which can take some acclimatization.
Most tweeters have a "sweet spot" directly on axis (or nearly on axis), which typically extends several degrees to the sides, but with high-frequency response gradually tapering off as listeners move further off axis. But the CDT 3 tweeter does not behave like this at all. It maintains perfectly even response up to a whopping 90 degrees off axis relative to the centerline of the speakers. The good news is that this characteristic tends to make surround sound imaging unusually spacious, seamless, and convincing, which is very good news. The tricky part, however, is that the Classico models put out a considerable amount of treble energy off-axis (much more so that conventional speakers do). In practice, this means you'll need to take care in positioning the Classicos in order to avoid unwanted reflections—reflections that can potentially make the system seem overly bright or edgy (which I am convinced it is not). Once you get the reflections tamed, though, all should be well.
These are an excellent set of speakers, hefty price tag though... loved the review very detailed many thanks for this.

Ann Rougvie, PhD
Research Techniques:
Use of green fluorescent protein in genetic screens using a dissecting microscope outfitted with epifluorescence
Research Interests:
Work in the Rougvie laboratory is directed at understanding how cells execute specific events at precise times during development. To understand how cellular timekeeping works, the lab has chosen to study a developmentally simply organism, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The lab is dissecting the timing mechanism that restricts the differentiation of hypodermal cells to a time late in the life of the worm, the transition from the larval to adult form. The approach is to identify mutations that cause this event to occur at the wrong time during development, and then to study the genes defined by these mutations. These genes are referred to as 'heterochronic' genes because their mutation alters the relative timing and sequence of many developmental events in the animal.
One event timed by the heterochronic genes is the terminal differentiation of the lateral hypodermis, a process that is restricted to the final (fourth) molt in wild-type animals and called the larval-to-adult (L/A) switch. Mutations in heterochronic genes advance or retard the timing of the L/A switch, resulting in larvae with adult hypodermis or adults with larval hypodermis. We have identified several heterochronic genes through a variety of genetic screens. For example, mutation of the gene lin-42 causes the L/A switch to occur precociously, during the third molt. lin-42 encodes a protein that most closely resembles the PERIOD (PER) family of proteins from Drosophila and other organisms. This result is particularly intriguing because PER proteins regulate circadian rhythms, a second type of biological timing mechanism in animals: the internal clock that controls the approximately 24-hour oscillation of biological processes such as sleep-wake cycles. Experiments are underway to investigate the similarities between LIN-42 and PER and to understand how LIN-42 functions in the heterochronic gene pathway. Another heterochronic gene we identified is hbl-1, the orthologue of Drosophila hunchback. Studies of hbl-1 temporal regulation have led the lab to the study of microRNAs, tiny, ~22 nt non-coding RNAs that down-regulate gene expression by interacting with 3'UTRs of target genes.
The Rougvie lab will continue analysis of lin-42 and hbl-1 and its miRNA regulators, as well as additional genes identified through ongoing genetic screens in order to understand how the heterochronic gene pathway conveys temporal information to cells of the developing animal. The lab's long-term goal is to determine how developmental timing mechanisms are integrated with the spatial and sexual cues required for proper development of a multicellular organism.

Mark Anderson Shines at Bills Minicamp
Newly acquired defensive end Mark Anderson gave the Bills' offensive line fits during Tuesday's minicamp practice on the grass field behind the Bills Fieldhouse.
Anderson, the free-agent acquisition from New England, was in the backfield on the third play of the 11-on-11 session to force Ryan Fitzpatrick into an incompletion. He beat left tackle Cordy Glenn on the next play and forced another incompletion. He forced Fitzpatrick into an incompletion on the first snap of the QB's next set of 11-on-11 plays. On the next play, fellow defensive end Mario Williams batted down a Fitzpatrick pass. Anderson had a would-be sack of FItzpatrick on the first play of red-zone work, too.

Furthermore, to avoid being taken from the victim, the victim has to be willing to shoot; something which many women may hesitate to do. |
The first thing I tell any woman I talk to about getting a firearm is that she needs to be prepared to use it and can't hesitate to do so if she needs to. Then it is for her to decide. Not you. I'm not going around shoving guns into purses as you might imagine. It is amazing all the sexists this thread has brought out. Women in hysterics shooting wildly. Women too timid to shoot at all. Can't we at least get the story straight? Aren't there any competent women out there? Heaven forbid we allow them to decide for themselves. Imagine, thinking women |

I didn't change any words, I just reached a conclusion supported by the data presented.
You wouldn't have been accused of changing words had you stated "the conclusion I draw from "blah blah data" is blah blah blah. IOW is meant to paraphrase and break down a quote. If you think you were doing that, you either didn't read it or didn't understand it. |
I don't mean per say these suggestions are absolutely moronic.. but in comparison to other defense methods they somewhat are. In terms of women's self defense, the idea is normally stun and run. Example, knee to groin, eye gouge etc.. and take off. It's a one strike system in terms of "women's self defense". Assuming the female is completely overpowered (which don't really imply) they're giving you the most passive options one could imagine. One could easily put plead and beg at the end of the list also.. but how effective is that? Shouldn't people have the option? I know some women who are rape victims from many years ago and are very very cautiousness. Taking away the option to be armed would actually stop them from walking at night (regardless of alone or not). I'll pose the question again.. the woman who was brutally raped and died from India, would a pee/vomit/etc.. have in all likelihood have made a difference? If she had a gun would it have? Which method of defense would most likely have caused her to be alive today? "The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses." -Malcolm X-
