subset: commoncrawl


text:
The course was difficult however. I thought the organization was very well through out. The expo was quick, there was plenty of parking near the start/finish line. Lots of water/sport drink stands that were well ran by the vols. The pace people during the race and the multiple chip sensors for review after the race were nice touches I have only seen in the big city races. I would do this one again.
Expo was simple but nice, volunteers extremely friendly for the check-in, the race itself was well organized, parking easy, start process was good and aid stations were stacked with Accelerade which from my perspective made a big difference reducing cramps. You get a nice long-sleeve shirt and custom hat, and the medal is gorgeous. It was a well organized, hilly course in a beautiful city.
I knew that this marathon was going to be small, but I was shocked when I found myself completely alone on the course. I found this concerning from a safety perspective as well as morale. Medical support on the course is close to non existent. Other big gripe- food at the finish lacked healthiness or variety. I did enjoy the chicken soup, but so many bread products! Pizza, Krispy Kreme, more bread... No fruit (maybe bananas), juice, chocolate milk or yogurt. Everyone has different preferences for recovery food, but the organizers should have at least attempted to provide real, no processed food. This is an event for athletes or at least people trying to lead a healthy lifestyle! Pros- ideal weather, friendly volunteers at aid stations. Cons- hills throughout the course, the double whammy at mile 22 is soul crushing. Food at the finish lacked healthy options.
First, great volunteers (enthusiastic) and good organization. Plenty of water, accelerade and gels on the marathon course. Good spacing of various stations. Second, plenty of food. I, too, saw previous comments. I finished in 5:10 and there was still plenty of food when I made it down to the food area. There were bananas, bagels and breads when I entered the area after finishing in addition to the doughnuts and pizza. Third, great medal. If you want bling with some heft to it, this is definitely one of those medals. Fourth, because of the greenway use the course was not overly crowded. Pretty well-controlled with the combination of the half and full marathoner start and the eventual merging of the 10K run. And the volunteers did a really good job of making sure people got to the correct place particularly when the full-marathoners left the road course. Fifth, somewhat limited spectator viewing and support. More people at the 10K finish at Cameron Village. And a pretty good crowd out at Crabtree viewing area. Maybe the half-marathoners had more spectator support because they finished earlier. It was pretty empty as I came down the last 2 miles. Nothing you can do about the hills. It would have been better to publish the total vertical rise in addition to the course profile. My Fitbit said more than 1150 feet, with 140 feet of vertical at mile 22. For a flatter course, it is still pretty intense. I heard a lot of comments by the HM runners about how hilly it was. Yes, the first 11 miles ARE quite hilly. But my long runs of 20, 23, and 26 miles had more than 1500 feet of vertical over those courses so I felt well-prepared. The health and fitness expo is small but suitable to the number of entrants. Packet pickup went smoothly. Glad it was a disposable timing chip for the shoe. Finally, I was impressed with how long the organizers left the timing system up so that last runners could get their official times and medals. The street may have been open but the timing system was left running for 1:15 beyond the 'official' cutoff time. I'm sure those finishers appreciated it. The use of the greenway system limits the number of people who can compete (rather than running a pure road course). If you want to run a marathon without the crush of people that has some real challenges for you, this is a nice one to run. As my first marathon, it was a great experience!
On my quest to complete the 50 states, I decided to go with the Raleigh marathon since I have several friends in the area. I really wanted to do the Outer Banks race but chose my friends and that turned out to be a good decision. Yes, the course is very hilly. There is not much that can be done in North Carolina to avoid the hills. Lots of people think that North Carolina is pancake flat but that is only true on the coast. The organization was very good. I would have like a few e-mails and some facebook updates. There are several hotels within walking distance and you get to see most of the high points of the city. Lots of gels are available and there are lots of enthusiastic volunteers. Variety of food at the finish could be improved. I enjoyed the donuts and pizza but some bagels and banannas would be appreciated. Going into the race I was concerned by past comments about lack of food. I finished just under 4 hours and there was food present but I did see people walking off with large boxes of pizza and large quantities of donuts. Hopefully there was something left for the later finishers.
I loved this marathon! The Expo was a nice size and race bag pickup workers were very friendly. Parking for the race was close and easy to get in and out of. The temperature was 40 degrees at the start and clear skies (absolutely perfect). The race started on time and ran through downtown Raleigh and around NC State University. About the 12 mile mark we entered the Greenway on an 11 mile rolling path with colored leaves blowing off the trees as we ran. (I live in southern Florida and never get to see something as wonderful as that). Gu's, water and Accelerade were provided every 2 miles here as were 2 stops with bananas and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (a absolute marathon treat). Lots of hills but not too awful bad, except mile 23, but it provides character to a race. Hot pizza and huge medals at the finish. The volunteers could not have been nicer or more helpful. What's not to like?
This was my first City of Oaks Marathon. Expo: Obtaining my packet and premium was super easy. Wasn't overly impressed with the shirt -but appreciated receiving the hat (something different). There weren't many vendors at the expo - and my group actually went to REI (about 10 minutes away) to obtain more GUs. Parking: As advertised - parking was super easy and plentiful. We stayed at a hotel ten minutes away, parked at the shopping center and made the easy five minute walk to the start/finish. Course: The marathon course was incredibly challenging. I had run Baltimore in October (which is also very hilly and the net elevation gain on this was just slightly less) so I thought I'd prepared well for the hills. I quickly discovered I had not. These hills are no joke - this may be the 'fastest' course City of Oaks has prepared - but I don't agree with the 'flattest' part they advertised, as there was almost no flat terrain - I was always running up or down. The first half of the race is on city streets and is a constant up and down. Not to mention they put an out and back in the first three miles - so the race course is very crowded initially. I was also surprised that the marathon and half share a portion of the course with the 10K, which started a half hour later - but allowed strollers. The second half of the marathon is on a paved trail - which showcased Raleigh's fall foliage (really picturesque). However, the trail is a pretty steep out and back, which make the hills from the first half look like child's play. The hill at mile 23 was brutal. Support: There were plenty of water stops. There was no gatorade, rather something called Accelerate - which was not pleasant. There was plenty of GU offered on the marathon course - however, there was only one food stop (you hit it on the out and back) - I would really have loved to have seen one a bit earlier in the course. The fans were pretty sparse - both on the street portion of the race and the trail - however, those who were there were great. Post Race: Race bling was great (huge). Finish area had Papa John's pizza, Krispy Kreme donuts and bananas. I had no issue grabbing my bag from gear check, but was disappointed there was no change area - only port-a-potties. The sparse fans and challenging course left me a bit disappointed. Overall, this race was just okay - so, I do not plan on running it again.
See the other folks with pro and cons. They are pretty much accurate. The course is advertised as 'Our 2013 marathon course will be our flattest and fastest course ever.' however note this is NOT a 'flat' or 'fast' marathon course. You climb from elev 220 to elev 450 from mile 20 to mile 24 and there's some downhills so you are actually runnign up hill more than the 230 feet. from 22.6 to 23 you climb 80 feet! You must plan for this. My pros are: 1) VERY well organized race. 2) Great information provided beforehand 3) Course well marked 4) Started on time 5) Entusiastic volunteers 6) I really liked the greenway run through the woods feel 7) Enough of an expo for last minute details. I don't expec thet expo to be the bargain hunter paradise. Just want my number, race bag and chance to pick up a few gels. 8) Like the runners hat in addition to shirt that came with packet, It's a nice little add that's something different. The cons: 1)A little upgrade of the food at the finish would be nice. I know Krispy Kremem is a corporate sponsor and I thank them, but that's too much of a sugar shock for me after runnign 26 miles. 2) They don't start handing out on course gels until half marathon folks split off. Fortunately I carried a few from the start, but if you haven't started taking calories before mile 11, you're in a bunch of trouble. 3) The aid stations are huge when you hit them but they are spread out at two mile plus intervals. Maybe smaller stations at one mile intervals would be nice. Overall it's a great race and I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a mid-sized Fall marathon. I'd do it again but there's so many great options and so little time.
This was my 10th marathon and my 1st time to run City of Oaks. PROS 1. Nice, BIG race medal. 2. Very easy to find parking within walking distance to the start. 3. Little, if any, traffic concerns out on the course (helps that about 2/3 of the course is run on the greenway) 4. Well-organized spectator viewing locations along the greenway, complete with spectator parking. My husband was able to stop at multiple locations to cheer during the race. 5. Spectators and volunteers were friendly and energetic. 6. Ample hotels and restaurants in the area for out-of-towners like me. 7. Small expo, quick in-and-out to get your race number and technical shirt. Enough vendors that I was able to pick up last minute gels to carry along the course. 8. Chip timing mats provided at good, strategic locations to prevent people from cutting the course along the greenway. CONS 1. The dreaded long lines at the Port-a-potties. I don't know if they didn't order enough, or if they initially did but did not account for the influx of displaced NYC marathoners. 2. We got caught in traffic going to the expo Friday, didn't anticipate rush hour. 3. No signs directing you to the expo entrance, we just followed other runners. FOR CONSIDERATION 1. The greenway portion is a long out-and-back. Not a bother for me, use your judgment if that's too monotonous for you. 2. I underestimated the hills. I have to warn future participants to especially control their pace for the first 2 miles (you will regret not doing so later). 3. Basic finish line food plus a beer garden. 4. Ipods were allowed, so long as you could still follow race directions. Overall I have a good impression of the race. I would recommend it for 50 staters looking for their North Carolina race.
I was worried when the race grew to over 5,000 participants but was pleased with the outcome. I have run the full in the past, but did the half this year. Positives: - Parking was nearby. - Convenient porta-potties. - Great post race beer. - Started on time. - Clear and loud announcements before race. I knew exactly when the race was starting. - Great sponsors. - Long sleeve tech shirts Could Improve: - Get the mile markers up higher. I missed three of them. At least consider tieing large baloons so you can see them coming up.

A project by Christian Marc Schmidt & Liangjie Xia
By revealing the social networks present within the urban environment,
Invisible Cities
describes a new kind of city—a city of the mind. It displays geocoded activity from online services such as Twitter and Flickr, both in real-time and in aggregate. Real-time activity is represented as individual nodes that appear whenever a message or image is posted. Aggregate activity is reflected in the underlying terrain: over time, the landscape warps as data is accrued, creating hills and valleys representing areas with high and low densities of data.
In the piece, nodes are connected by narrative threads, based on themes emerging from the overlaid information. These pathways create dense meta-networks of meaning, blanketing the terrain and connecting disparate areas of the city.
Invisible Cities
maps information from one realm—online social networks—to another: an immersive, three-dimensional space. In doing so, the piece creates a parallel experience to the physical urban environment. The interplay between the aggregate and the real-time recreates the kind of dynamics present within the physical world, where the city is both a vessel for and a product of human activity. It is ultimately a parallel city of intersections, discovery, and memory, and a medium for re-experiencing the physical environment.

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
Release Date: July 20, 2012Rating [ PG-13 ]
Director: Christopher Nolan
Written By: Christopher Nolan, David S. Goyer, Jonathan Nolan
Cast: Anne Hathaway, Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Tom Hardy Synopsis:
In The Dark Knight Rises, it's been eight years since Batman vanished into the night as a fugitive in order to help preserve the reputation of D.A. Harvey Dent and save Gotham City. The Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon had hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act.
But everything changed with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda – and far more dangerous was the emergence of Bane, a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane.

AVALON Fundraiser: May 20th, 2007
What a beautiful night. Every thing was purple, all the decorations, guests and hosts outfits, table cloths and even the wrapping of the auction items. Purple is the color of Relay for life through American Cancer Society.
There were about 250 people in support of NDA to raise money for Cancer research. The Avalon nightclub graciously let us use their facility and they provided delicious food for the guests as well. That was a big donation from them. Thank you so much to the Jafari family.
Hayward Mazda was our #1 sponsor. Thanks to Max's Jewelry with his donation items that helped us exceed our goal. The Ebrahimi Brothers, Mohammad and Mehran as always side-by-side NDA let the audience enjoy the beautiful sound of their music as well as dancing to their tunes. Thanks to them and their art and their dedication.
Our great DJs were there donating their time and expertise: we had DJ Far and like always THE DJ Teymour who played the hottest music in town.
MESSA entertainment got everyone on the dance floor, what a great band. We were all so impressed by their professionalism and their music that no one wanted the night to end; everyone danced and forgot that it was Sunday night!
Last but not least were the NDA dancers, families and supporters who made the event so successful. All the donors of the Auction items, all the bidders at the live auction and all the people who showed up and joined us to not only raise money for Cancer patients but also to celebrate our own life and be grateful for what we have, our health, our friends and our life to be thankful for.
Special Thanks to: Ramina, Ghazaleh, Neda, Tina, Kimia M., Kimia S., Shadee, Sepee, Elhum, Niki, Suhaila, Mehrnaz, Firouzeh, Massih, Ladan, Sheena, Nazli, Maryam, Mahyad, all NDA Dancers and all the helpers (sorry if I missed your name! I thank you) and my lovely husband Fardad. Hope to see you all and others who had to miss this one on the next one.
Dear Niosha, At the outset, I would like to appreciate your beautiful ecard, and apologize for the delay on getting back to you on the Collegian's front page. Collegian Newspaper is our university's famous newspaper where thousands and thousands of university professors and students read. As you requested me, I came up with the front page of Monday, October 8th's collegian and attached it to this email, so that you are able to keep that in your records as well. I will however, attempt to post you the original, as well. I appreciate all your help, and hope to see you soon! Sincerely yours, Tanaz

1/4 In. Teardrop Ratchet a Solid Addition to Any Tool Kit
Built to perform under professional working conditions, this Craftsman 1/4 in. teardrop ratchet is at home in any shop. Whether you're an exhaust-breathing pro or a just like turning wrenches on the weekends, it stands up to tough torsional pressures while spinning nuts and bolts with a minor 10 degrees of swing.

The smart design of this 1/4 in. teardrop ratchet gets reversing directions and swapping sockets done with the simple movement of a thumb, while a precision machined square drive reduces movement and gives you more life in every socket and extension you use. A solid tool that's a garage, home and jobsite essential, stick this 1/4 inch in your box for service you can depend on.

Most Helpful Reviews
Is this not the benchmark for all ratchets of this type? For many years a ratchet such as this has graced my tool box until it was borrowed...never to be seen again.
I recently bought the replacement and, while a little shocked over the price, I was truly happy to see that the quality was still there if not a tad better than before.
You cannot go wrong with this ratchet as a stand alone or in a set!
Gilroy, CA
The look and feel of the ratchet is the same. However, I cannot accept the fact that this is now made in China. I will be returning this item as soon as I have the opportunity to. I have purchased and used mainly craftsman tools for somewhere in the area of 15 years. The three main reasons being that 1. they where USA made and 2. they have a lifetime warranty 3. I could afford them. This shift to outsourcing the production to China is unacceptable. I refuse to buy and keep any Craftsman tool that says "Made in China" on the package. Craftsman is sacrificing customer loyalty for the bottom line. If they where loosing profit or wanted to increase the profit margin they should have raised the price of the tools, not sacrificed their 50+ years of American manufacturing heritage.

Very solid product and we'll built. Handle is not too long or too short, so for light work it comes in handy but if you are looking to use it heavy job then consider something with longer hand. Worth the money for this little guy.

Haven't had any problems with this ratchet, I use it all the time at the wrecking yard to dismantle small fasteners inside doors, in the engine compartment and under the dash. Works fine and is one of my reliable tools.
Minot, ND
I use this for home use and it is a very poor product. It is almost like the gears inside are/were stripped from the time i got it. Looking at replacing with snap-on as I'm tired of having the skin removed from my knuckles. it skips and free spins about every other turn.

(Suitable from 6 months)
Order today for Monday delivery
The basic booster is a must for any household.
It is suitable for children who can sit unaided and can be used up to a maximum weight of 22.7kgs (50lbs).
The booster has a 3 point safety harness so your child will be restrained in comfortably and most importantly safely whilst they are in the seat. There is also an attachment strap to secure your booster to the chair and hold it in place.
The booster also has 4 white rubber feet to ensure a firmer grip to the chair that it is positioned on.
It is made from plastic and can be cleaned easily using a damp cloth to wipe over it.
Suitable from approximately 6 months to approximately 4 years
Excellent value for money
Sturdy but comfortable booster chair. Great value, much cheaper than many others of the same design and material. Easy to fit to a chair and nice colour. My 18 month old loves to now sit at the table with us! Only downside is the chair now won't go under the table with the seat attached however that's more our style of table and chair than the seat.
Bought 2 of these as I am a grandparent of twins. Used in my house every time they visit. Good progression from high chair, very stable and enables children to sit at the table and be part of the meal with adults. Very easy to clean.
This is a great booster seat and our little boy feels very grown up sitting at the table when we are out and about
Excellent seat. My son loves sitting eating dinner at the family table. Very good value for money. Easy to wipe clean

Point out application porting feasibility - if you have an app that runs on *nix, then porting that app to Linux is far, FAR easier than porting it to NT. One example, some CDF data analysis code (at Fermilab) was about 1M lines long that ran on IRIX. People estimated the port could be done in a year - it took a grad student 3 weeks. Then, again, if you've got an NT app, it will be difficult to port that to Linux, so you may want to stick with NT. > I even found that an nt cluster sits on place 207 on the top500 list > (see http://www.top500.org/lists/TOP500List.php3?Y=2000&M=06) > is that an exception, or are there many of these beasts around?

- With Mayo Clinic gastroenterologist
Michael F. Picco, M.D.
read biographyclose windowBiography of
Michael F. Picco, M.D.
Michael F. Picco, M.D.
Dr. Michael Picco has been with Mayo Clinic since 1999. He is board certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology. Dr. Picco is an assistant professor of medicine at College of Medicine, Mayo Clinic, and a consultant in gastroenterology at Mayo Clinic in Florida.
He has authored numerous publications in the area of gastroenterology, including original research, editorials and textbook chapters. He works with a team of gastroenterologists that takes care of complex gastrointestinal conditions and has a particular interest in diarrheal illnesses and inflammatory bowel diseases (ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease). He is also active in medical education in training new gastroenterologist and internists.
"Mayo Clinic's website is an invaluable resource for patients and their families," Dr. Picco said. "Informed patients are better able to participate in their own health care. A patient's participation is vital to the treatment of his or her disease. I hope to assist in helping patients understand their digestive problems and current treatments that are offered. This will allow for better communication between patients, their physicians and other health care professionals."
Dr. Picco serves as a reviewer of new research for several medical journals in the area of gastroenterology and is an active member of the American Gastroenterological Association, American College of Gastroenterology and the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America. He serves on numerous committees that address physician training, research and clinical practice in gastroenterology, both at Mayo Clinic and at the national level.
"Patients need to know about their disease, what to expect, the latest treatments and side effects so that they can make informed decisions about their health care. Gastrointestinal disease affects not only patients but also their families. My goal is to assure that our website provides accurate, reliable information and resources for patients. We must always provide the latest, most cutting-edge information to assist patients in dealing with their medical problems," Dr. Picco said.

What is spastic colon?
from Michael F. Picco, M.D.
Spastic colon is another term for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a common disorder characterized by abdominal cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, constipation and diarrhea.
The term spastic colon describes the increase in spontaneous contractions (motility) of muscles in the small and large intestines associated with IBS. These contractions are sometimes called spasms. However, because IBS may also be associated with decreased motility, the term spastic colon isn't always accurate.
The cause and severity of IBS varies from person to person. Treatment is aimed at relieving symptoms, and may include diet changes, stress reduction, and anticholinergic or anti-diarrheal medications.

Hair-Color Tips for Blonde Hair
Lighten up! Celebrity colorist Beth Minardi shares her best blonde hair-color tips
Sleek and sexy, brassy and bombshell, icy and elegant — put the word blonde in front of any of those and an image immediately pops into mind. Grace Kelly, for example, embodied the icy, elegant blonde persona, while no one was more of a bombshell blonde than Marilyn Monroe.
Regardless of the shade — or the star — it seems that Americans love blonde hair. According to a 2007 Clairol survey of more than 1,000 women, more than half the respondents said they believe blonde is the most fun-loving hair color, and more than half said that blonde is the hair color men find sexiest on a woman. Half the women also rated blonde as the most seductive hair color.
What's the allure of blonde hair? "It's rare," says Beth Minardi, a celebrity hair colorist and co-owner and color director of Minardi Salon in New York City. "Very few people after the age of 10 have naturally blonde hair." As such, there's also a sense of childlike innocence and purity associated with the shade.
But dyeing your hair blonde isn't for everyone. "A good colorist will tell you if you can be blonde or not," Minardi says. "If someone's skin tone and eye color don't work with it, it can be aging." Many experts say that if you were blonde as a child, even if your hair is darker now, you probably have the appropriate coloring to carry off blonde hair. But who shouldn't be blonde? In general, Minardi says that people with dark or olive skin and black or dark brown eyes should avoid going blonde. It's also not a good idea for someone with naturally black or almost-black hair, "because by the time they make it blonde it's damaged and almost ruined," she says.
That's because going blonde is the harshest form of coloring. If you're starting with brunette hair, going blonde is "very chemically challenging," Minardi says. "The brown pigment has to be removed first with a lightener like bleach. Then hair is conditioned, and a blonde toner shade is applied to the bleached hair."
For natural redheads, the process can also be difficult. "If the client was a natural blonde as a child, a single process may work, but otherwise, like brunette hair, red hair must first be lightened," she explains.
Your colorist can help you find a flattering shade of blonde — and if you're going more than a couple of shades lighter (or darker, for that matter) than your natural hair color, you should definitely see a pro. But to help ensure you get the color you want, Minardi recommends bringing color photos of looks you like to the salon. "You might think a shade is strawberry blonde and I might think it's golden blonde," she says. Being able to point to a picture of the exact shade you desire can help remove any confusion and help you walk out of the salon a happy client.
But be prepared to walk back in again — frequently. If you're not a natural blonde, and don't want telltale dark roots answering the "does she or doesn't she" question for you, you'll need frequent touch-ups.
Dyeing your hair blonde isn't for everyone, but if you're one of the lucky ladies who can carry off blonde hair, you'll be in iconic company.
