Coppola was given a free hand with this sequel, and his deft directorial touches are everywhere, particularly in the earlier historical sequences. Cinemato...
The brilliant companion piece to "The Godfather" continues the saga of two generations of successive power within the Corleone Family from a screenplay by Francis Ford Coppola based on Mario Puzo's novel. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, "The Godfather Part 2" tells two important stories: the roots and rise of a young Don Vito, played with uncanny ability by Robert De Niro, and the ascension of Michael (Al Pacino) as the new Don. Reassembling many of the talents who made "The Godfather", Coppola produced a movie of staggering magnitude and vision, and undeniably the best sequel ever made.
Equally glorious sequel, in which Michael Corleone assumes his late father's position. An account of the origins of the infamous crime family is interwoven into the story. Multi-Oscar winner, including Best Picture!
The film is both a sequel and a prequel to The Godfather, chronicling the story of the Corleone family following the events of the first film while also depicting the rise to power of the young Vito Corleone, played by Robert De Niro.

A blizzard is a severe snowstorm characterized by strong sustained winds of at least 56 km/h (35 mph) and lasting for a prolonged period of time — typically three hours or more. A severe blizzard has winds over 72 km/h (45 mph), near zero visibility, and temperatures of −12 °C () or lower. A ground blizzard is a weather condition where snow is not falling but loose snow on the ground is lifted and blown by strong winds.
In the United States, the National Weather Service defines a blizzard as a severe snowstorm characterized by strong winds causing blowing snow that results in low visibilities. The difference between a blizzard and a snowstorm is the strength of the wind, not the amount of snow. To be a blizzard, a snow storm must have sustained winds or frequent gusts that are greater than or equal to 56 km/h (35 mph) with blowing or drifting snow which reduces visibility to 400 meters or a quarter mile or less and must last for a prolonged period of time — typically three hours or more.[1][2]
While severe cold and large amounts of drifting snow may accompany blizzards, they are not required. Blizzards can bring whiteout conditions, and can paralyze regions for days at a time, particularly where snowfall is unusual or rare.
A severe blizzard has winds over 72 km/h (45 mph), near zero visibility, and temperatures of −12 °C () or lower.[3] In Antarctica, blizzards are associated with winds spilling over the edge of the ice plateau at an average velocity of 160 km (about) per hour.[3]
Ground blizzard refers to a weather condition where loose snow or ice on the ground is lifted and blown by strong winds. The primary difference between a ground blizzard as opposed to a regular blizzard is that in a ground blizzard no precipitation is produced at the time, but rather all the precipitation is already present in the form of snow or ice at the surface.
The Australia Bureau of Meteorology describes a blizzard as, "Violent and very cold wind which is laden with snow, some part, at least, of which has been raised from snow covered ground." [4]
Blizzard conditions of cold temperatures and strong winds can cause wind chill values that can result in hypothermia or frostbite. The wind chill factor is the amount of cooling the human body feels due to the combination of wind and temperature.
Blizzards in Australia[edit]
Blizzards are not common in mainland Australia, but occur frequently in the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales and Victoria. When blizzards do occur, they can affect the Tasmanian Highlands and, particularly, Mount Wellington, which towers over the Tasmanian capital Hobart. Blizzards do not affect any major towns or cities, because there are no populated areas located in the mountains except for the ski resort towns of New South Wales and Victoria.
United States storm systems[edit]
In the United States, storm systems powerful enough to cause blizzards usually form when the jet stream dips far to the south, allowing cold, dry polar air from the north to clash with warm, humid air moving up from the south.[2][5] They are most common in the Great Plains, the Great Lakes states, and the northeastern states along the coast, and less common in the Pacific Northwest.
When cold, moist air from the Pacific Ocean moves eastward to the Rocky Mountains and the Great Plains, and warmer, moist air moves north from the Gulf of Mexico, all that is needed is a movement of cold polar air moving south to form potential blizzard conditions that may extend from the Texas panhandle to the Great Lakes.
Another storm system occurs when a cold core low over the Hudson Bay area in Canada is displaced southward over southeastern Canada, the Great Lakes, and New England. When the rapidly moving cold front collides with warmer air coming north from the Gulf of Mexico, strong surface winds, a lot of cold air advection, and extensive wintry precipitation occur.
Low pressure systems moving out of the Rocky Mountains onto the Great Plains, a broad expanse of flat land, much of it covered in prairie, steppe and grassland, can cause thunderstorms and rain to the south and heavy snows and strong winds to the north. With few trees or other obstructions to reduce wind and blowing, this part of the country is particularly vulnerable to blizzards with very low temperatures and whiteout conditions. In a true whiteout there is no visible horizon. People can become lost in their own front yards, when the door is only (3 meters) away, and they would have to feel their way back. Motorists have to stop their cars where they are, as the road is impossible to see.
Nor'easter blizzards[edit]
A nor'easter is a macro-scale storm along the East Coast of the United States and Atlantic Canada; it gets its name from the direction the wind is coming from. The usage of the term in North America comes from the wind associated with many different types of storms some of which can form in the North Atlantic Ocean and some of which form as far south as the Gulf of Mexico. The term is most often used in the coastal areas of New England and Atlantic Canada. This type of storm has characteristics similar to a hurricane. More specifically it describes a low-pressure area whose center of rotation is just off the East Coast and whose leading winds in the left-forward quadrant rotate onto land from the northeast. High storm waves may sink ships at sea and cause coastal flooding and beach erosion. Notable nor'easters include The Great Blizzard of 1888, one of the worst blizzards in U.S. history. It dropped 40-50 inches of snow and killed 400 people, mostly in New York.
Historic events[edit]
1972 Iran blizzard[edit]
The 1972 Iran Blizzard, which caused approximately 4,000 deaths, was the deadliest blizzard in recorded history. Dropping as much as of snow, it completely covered 200 villages. After a snowfall lasting nearly a week, an area the size of Wisconsin was entirely buried in snow.[6]
The Snow Winter of 1880–1881[edit]
The winter of 1880-1881 is widely considered the most severe winter ever known in the United States. Many children—and their parents—learned of "The Snow Winter" through the children's book The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls Wilder, in which the author tells of her family's efforts to survive. The snow arrived in October 1880 and blizzard followed blizzard throughout the winter and into March 1881, leaving many areas snowbound throughout the entire winter. Accurate details in Wilder's novel include the blizzards' frequency and the deep cold, the Chicago and North Western Railway stopping trains until the spring thaw because the snow made the tracks impassable, the near-starvation of the townspeople, and the courage of her husband Almanzo and another man, who ventured out on the open prairie in search of a cache of wheat that no one was even sure existed.
The October blizzard brought snowfalls so deep that two-story homes had snow up to the second floor windows. No one was prepared for the deep snow so early in the season and farmers all over the region were caught before their crops had even been harvested, their grain milled, or with their fuel supplies for the winter in place. By January the train service was almost entirely suspended from the region. Railroads hired scores of men to dig out the tracks but it was a wasted effort: As soon as they had finished shoveling a stretch of line, a new storm arrived, filling up the line and leaving their work useless.
There were no winter thaws and on February 2, 1881, a second massive blizzard struck that lasted for nine days. In the towns the streets were filled with solid drifts to the tops of the buildings and tunneling was needed to secure passage about town. Homes and barns were completely covered, compelling farmers to tunnel to reach and feed their stock.
When the snow finally melted in late spring of 1881, huge sections of the plains were flooded. Massive ice jams clogged the Missouri River and when they broke the downstream areas were ravaged. Most of the town of Yankton, in what is now South Dakota, was washed away when the river overflowed its banks.[7][8]
The Storm of the Century[edit]
The Storm of the Century, also known as the Great Blizzard of 1993, was a large cyclonic storm that formed over the Gulf of Mexico on March 12, 1993, and dissipated in the North Atlantic Ocean on March 15. It is unique for its intensity, massive size and wide-reaching effect. At its height, the storm stretched from Canada towards Central America, but its main impact was on the Eastern United States and Cuba. The cyclone moved through the Gulf of Mexico, and then through the Eastern United States before moving into Canada. Areas as far south as central Alabama and Georgia received 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) of snow and areas such as Birmingham, Alabama, received up to 12 inches (30 cm) with isolated reports of 16 inches (41 cm). Even the Florida Panhandle reported up to 4 inches (10 cm),[9] with hurricane-force wind gusts and record low barometric pressures. Between Louisiana and Cuba, hurricane-force winds produced high storm surges across northwestern Florida, which along with scattered tornadoes killed dozens of people. Record cold temperatures were seen across portions of the South and East in the wake of this storm. In the United States, the storm was responsible for the loss of electric power to over 10 million customers. It is purported to have been directly experienced by nearly 40 percent of the country's population at that time. A total of 310 people, including 10 from Cuba, perished during this storm.

- 1993 Storm of the Century While the southern and eastern U.S. and Cuba received the brunt of this massive blizzard, the Storm of the Century impacted a wider area than any in recorded history. In addition to 24 in. (60 cm) of snow, the weather system also brought with it heavy rains, high-speed winds and tornadoes, earning it another nickname: the White Hurricane. The highest wind gusts were recorded in New Hampshire (144 m.p.h., or 232 km/h, on Mount Washington), while the greatest snowfall was recorded in Tennessee (56 in., or 142 cm, on Mount LeConte). An estimated 15 tornadoes touched down in Florida. More than 300 people were killed in total.
- Halloween Blizzard of 1991
- Chicago Blizzard of 1979
- Northeastern United States Blizzard of 1978
- Great Blizzard of 1978, also called the Cleveland Superbomb. It occurred in late January and was one of the worst snowstorms the Midwest has ever seen. Wind gusts approached 100 m.p.h. (160 km/h), causing snowdrifts to reach heights of 25 ft. (8 m) in some areas, making roadways impassable. National Guard helicopters flew some 2,700 missions to help stranded drivers. About 70 deaths are attributed to the storm.
- Chicago Blizzard of 1967(January 26) The Chicago Blizzard of 1967 struck northeast Illinois and northwest Indiana with a record-setting 23 inches (58 cm) of snow. To this day (2011), it is the worst blizzard in Chicago history.
- North American blizzard of 1947 was a record-breaking snowfall that began on Christmas Day and brought the Northeast United States to a standstill. It was not accompanied by high winds, but the snow fell steadily with drifts reaching ten feet. Seventy-seven deaths were attributed to the blizzard.
- Armistice Day Blizzard (November 12, 1940) took place in the Midwest region of the United States on Armistice Day. This "Panhandle hook" winter storm cut a 1,000-mile-wide (1600 km) path through the middle of the country from Kansas to Michigan. The morning of the storm was unseasonably warm but by mid afternoon conditions quickly deteriorated into a raging blizzard that would last into the next day. A total of 145 deaths were blamed on the storm, almost a third of them duck hunters who had taken time off to take advantage of the ideal hunting conditions. Weather forecasters had not predicted the severity of the oncoming storm, and as a result the hunters were not dressed for cold weather. When the storm began many hunters took shelter on small islands in the Mississippi River, and the 50 mph (80 km/h) winds and 5-foot (1.5 m) waves overcame their encampments. Some became stranded on the islands and then froze to death in the single-digit temperatures that moved in over night. Others tried to make it to shore and drowned.
- Great Lakes Storm of 1913 (November 7 through November 10) was the deadliest and most destructive natural disaster ever to hit the Great Lakes Basin in the Midwestern United States and the Canadian province of Ontario. Termed a "November gale", it produced 90 mph (145 km/h) wind gusts, waves over 35 feet (11 m) high, and whiteout snowsqualls. It killed more than 250 people,destroyed 19 ships, and stranded 19 others. Perhaps the most well-known ship to go down in a November gale was the SS Edmund Fitzgerald in 1975.
- Great Blizzard of 1899 An extremely unusual blizzard in that it reached into the far southern states of America. It hit in February and the area around Washington, D.C., experienced 51 hours straight of snowfall. The port of New Orleans was totally iced over; revelers participating in the New Orleans Mardi Gras had to wait for the parade routes to be shoveled free of snow.
- Schoolhouse Blizzard of 1888, North American Great Plains. What made the storm so deadly was the timing (during work and school hours), the suddenness, and the brief spell of warmer weather that preceded it. In addition, the very strong wind fields behind the cold front and the powdery nature of the snow reduced visibilities on the open plains to zero. People ventured from the safety of their homes to do chores, go to town, attend school, or simply enjoy the relative warmth of the day. As a result, thousands of people—including many schoolchildren—got caught in the blizzard. The death toll was 235.[10] Teachers generally kept children in their schoolrooms. Exceptions nearly always resulted in disaster.[11]
- Great Blizzard of 1888, one of the most severe recorded blizzards in the history of the United States. On March 12, an unexpected northeaster hit New England and the mid-Atlantic, dropping up to 50 in. (127 cm) of snow in the space of two days. Some 400 people died, including many sailors aboard vessels that were beset by gale-force winds and turbulent seas. In parts of New York City, snowdrifts reached up to the second story of some buildings.

I got this lamp because I loved the design of the body of the lamp. I also love red and thought the lampshade would be perfect. I was so surprised to find that when the lamp came, not only was the body/base of the lamp just as beautiful as I thought, the lamp shade is even prettier than I though. The red shade has little squiggly lines of gold throughout it. I was thrilled. Even better than it looks online. So worth the price.
Very nice product - stylish and durable! The color was perfect for my decor and the pattern in the shade is really pretty! It is exactly what I was looking for! The lamp is not too big, and will fit in a small area if needed. I'm very happy with this product. The shipping was fast and very well packed.
I purchased both the Ramone floor and table lamps - they look great on the site with the detail in the post and shade top but you can't see the detail in the shade - it's really beautiful. The gold stitching on the red silk is beautiful. There is also a lovely gold accenting on the lamp post.The lamps also have three level lighting(which can't be accessed with fluorescent bulbs but if you have any contraband incandescent - it's worth the rule breaking to use them on these lamps! You can't go wrong with the Ramone lamp - seriously, buy it. You will love it!
The lampshade arrived in excellent condition. You would think by looking at the lamp that it was more expensive. Good value for the money and simple to assemble. Can use a 3-way flourescent bulb which saves electricity costs. i would recommend the product.
This floor lamp is exactly what I was looking for. Diffused light while watching TV and reading. It is beautiful and nice.
This lamp is really made well and is beautiful. It is a atmosphere lamp, as it has a cranberry shade. When I got it unpacked and set up I tried to order a new one because I loved it so much. It is out of stock, the only thing I had a problem was with not being able to order another right away!
I was a little disappointed in the frame or body of the lamp. Just not as sturdy as I would have liked.
I purchased the table and floor lamp. They arrived promptly,,easy to assemble. The color was accurate and style beautiful. The floor lamp doesn't sit exactly flat and neither actually work as 3-way bulbs, but they look nice and add cozy glow to my family room.
Looks much more expensive than the price. Really great buy.
very nice and easy to assemble, a bit more difficult to have it standing straight upright. Shade is beautiful.

Works great and easy to install
Installed an 8"damper on the old wood stove in our new home and have gotten much more heat out of it. No installation instructions :( but a youtube search found a great video. Only quibble on the product is the spring on the handle will slide out of position when you have to push in the damper to adjust it. It could be anchored a little tighter.

WHAT IS HAZARDOUS WASTE? In the U.S., hazardous waste is defined as any discarded solid or liquid that is highly corrosive, toxic, reactive enough to release toxic fumes, or easily ignited. It can include solvents, pesticides, and spilled chemicals -- including acids, ammonia, chlorine bleach and other industrial cleaning agents -- as well as most heavy metals.
Long-term exposure to hazardous waste can lead to chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma, damaged liver and kidneys, or cancer. Poisoning and chemical burns can result from contact with even small amounts of toxic chemical waste. Even brief exposure can cause headaches, dizziness, and nausea.
Even non-hazardous, organic human waste that is not properly managed can be a serious health hazard, since it ferments and creates a good environment to let bacteria and other germs grow. The waste also attracts flies, rats, and other creatures that become infected and can spread infectious diseases, including malaria and plague.

Hospital 'ACE' Teams Curb Adverse Events, LOS, Costs
Hung says that his research group could not yet say whether having a MACE unit reduces overall cost of care, the topic of a separate research project. But he says it probably does in a high occupancy hospital that will promptly fill an empty bed once a patient is discharged.
The second study, conducted at the 1,114-bed University of Alabama at Birmingham by Kellie Flood, MD, and colleagues, looked at costs and 30-day readmissions in patients treated within a special 25-bed ACE unit, versus a similar group of elderly patients treated in usual care hospital settings.
An interdisciplinary team in an ACE unit, they concluded, "significantly reduces variable direct costs and 30-day readmission rates for patients 70 years or older" by about $371 per patient, or the difference between $2,480 and $2,109 per DRG.
For every 400 patients admitted to an ACE unit, the amount saved would be $148,400. The interdisciplinary team consists of an ACE nurse coordinator, geriatricians, nurses, physical and occupational therapists, pharmacists, a registered dietician, and social workers.
The ACE unit team provided geriatric assessments including cognitive and functional exams, geriatrician-led rounds focusing on geriatric care five days a week, discharge planning starting on the day of admission, and communication of team recommendations to the appropriate caregiver.
For the control group, hospitals admitted patients of all ages to usual care units, which were staffed with the same disciplines. "But geriatric screens and daily interdisciplinary team rounds focusing on geriatric syndromes were not conducted, nor were the volunteer-staffed care processes used."

Assessment matters
High-quality assessment is the first step in improving student learning. Through the use of both direct and indirect sources of evidence of student performance, assessments guide collective actions for improvements in teaching, academic supports, and curricula.
A culture of assessment
The Office of Assessment believes in a cooperative approach focused on student-centered learning. Within a culture of trust and shared responsibility, faculty and student life professionals—with participation from students, administrators, alumni and K-State constituents—develop and implement ongoing and systematic assessment strategies to understand what, how much, and how students learn in order to continuously improve learning outcomes. To assist faculty, the Office of Assessment provides support, resources, and training to help department and unit faculty develop and implement assessment practices tailored to their own needs. Read more about the culture of assessment at K-State.
We're here to help
The Office of Assessment is committed to the continuous improvement of student learning. We are here to serve the K-State community by supporting assessment activities, coordinating university-wide assessments, and fostering a culture of assessment.

From the BC Lions website.
The BC Lions Football Club announced this morning that slotback Geroy Simon has signed a contract extension with the team.
Simon led all Lions receivers in 2011 and ranked second overall in the league with 1,350 yards and eight touchdowns on 84 receptions.Geroy continues to put up big numbers and is on the verge of becoming the CFLs all-time leader in reception yardage, said VP of football operations and GM Wally Buono.
His durability, work ethic and clutch performances are something I know fans and teammates have come to expect.
Our offence thrives when we are able to get the ball in Geroys hands, said head coach Mike Benevides. He is the kind of player every team wants to have and build around.
Geroy will never be outworked or stop challenging himself or his teammates and thats vital to our success.
Earning a CFL All-Star selection for sixth time in his 13-year career to date, he is now within 66 yards of Milt Stegalls all-time receiving yardage mark of 15,153.

Ok so I have a bum knee (multiple surgeries) and have had many pulled muscles in legs.
That aside my squats have always struggled. Currently can squat 335x5 (roughly)
Idk if others have this problem but when doing lighter weight for more reps, I cannot. At all. Like 225x8 and I'm about to die.. Out of breathe/back and legs gassed
Now that aside too, can someone name a good routine for helping leg strength. I also play rugby in season so running I know will hurt gains... I just want to be good at leg lifts!
Oh and deadlift is probably only 415 due to recent fed up hamstring

Phones you can't get on a U.S. carrier
Sadly, the U.S. is often behind the times when it comes to handsets and mobile technology. Our European and Asian brethren usually get first dibs on all the cool gear, and sometimes, we won't even see it at all. Sure, we can get some of the fancier Sony Ericsson and HTC phones unlocked, but few U.S. carriers actually pick them up. Still, some of the phones do support U.S. bands, so that's an upside.

T-Mobile could unlock your phone sooner
Sometimes small changes are the most important. TmoNews, a site that exhaustively reports everything T-Mobile, reported Monday that the carrier will make it easier for customers to unlock their T-Mobile phones. Instead of having to wait three months (90 days), post-paid customers can obtain an unlock code after just 40 days beginning January 21. Prepaid customers will see a shorter wait period as well, 60 days instead of 90 days, provided they have an account balance of at least $10 and have refilled their service within the last 30 days.
The news comes via an unidentified tipster, and T-Mobile has … Read more
The 411: Data talk and music transfer
Welcome to the 411, my Q&A column answering all your questions about cell phones and cell phone accessories.

Send your questions and comments to me at email@example.com. If you prefer to remain anonymous, let me know in the e-mail.
Hi Nicole, I read CNET reviews from time to time and your team there is really helpful with great unbiased reviews. I am writing because I can't seem to find concrete information about using an unlocked smartphone. Like some people, I would like a smartphone, but do not want to carry a data plan and occasionally use e-mail and Web over Wi-Fi. I have read that buying an unlocked (smart)phone that is carrier-free can be used this way. But I have also read that companies (AT&T to be specific) can recognize even an unlocked smartphone not purchased from them, and automatically assign a data plan to the voice plan. I specifically want to buy a used unlocked Nokia E71, and get a SIM card with no contract or data plan. Can I do this, or do the new practices by carriers make that not possible? Any help is appreciated, thanks for your time.--Scott, via e-mail… Read more

Editor's Note: The following hack carries a risk of explosion if not done properly. It will also likely void any warranties on your wood stove. Proceed with caution.
Shade of Green: Burnt forest
Items Needed: 1 wood stove (well, duh), 1 pressure relief valve, 1 hot water jacket or heat-resistant loop, miscellaneous copper pipe, miscellaneous copper fittings, 1 circulator (optional), 1 aquastat thermostat (optional), 1 pre-heat holding tank (optional), 1 plumber, stove gasket cement
A view of the back of the stove/water heater mod, showing in and out water pipes.
Why this Hack: Because you're extremely adventurous. This is an advanced hack, requiring specialized knowledge and equipment and a clear understanding of the danger involved. Wait... come back... where are you going?
Listen: It's true that running a water loop through a wood stove is serious business; without a pressure relief valve, this sort of hack could cause, well, an explosion. This either scares or excites you. There is no in between. But the rewards are at least equal to the risk (and really, there's not much risk if you do it right): Piping hot water with the same quantity of wood you already burn, saving you literally hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars in the long haul.
This hack requires real plumbing skills, so you might want to hire it out. But since few plumbers will be familiar with this sort of tomfoolery, be sure to do the research first. There's a great book available from Lehmans.com. Rather fittingly, it's titled "Hot Water From Your Woodstove." Pure genius, eh? Anyway, it's got all the nitty-gritty, as well as sources for the hot water jacket you'll need. What's a hot water jacket? It's a rectangular slab of metal that installs inside your firebox, and it is designed to mate with copper pipe that runs cold water in and hot water out.
Heart of the Hack: The tricky part is fitting the jacket (and if a standard jacket doesn't fit, try hilkoil.com for custom loops); most stoves are not pre-drilled for water, so you'll have to break out the hole saw and git to hackin' in a most serious way. If yer stove's still under warranty, and you'd like to maintain that warranty, stop reading. That said, if you measure correctly and exercise due caution, you won't do any damage drilling two half or three-quarter-inch holes in your stove to fit the cold water in and hot water out pipes. Actually, you'll want to drill 'em 1/16th-inch oversize for ease of installation and to accommodate expanding/contracting. Once everything's installed, seal everything up with stove gasket cement.
Once the jacket/loop is fitted, it's time to run your copper; cold comes in the bottom and hot exits through the top hole. There are two basic ways to run this system: Bonus hack points for going with a thermo-siphon system, which uses the expanding properties of heat to send hot water to an elevated holding tank. Of course, that means plumbing a holding tank into your second floor, which definitely increases the hassle factor. The other option is to utilize a circulating pump that's thermostatically switched to pump water whenever the fire's a'blazin.'
You can plumb this to dump heated water directly into your existing hot water tank, or you can plumb it to dump it into a pre-heat holding tank (whether you do a thermo-siphon or circulator system). Either way, you'll be tapping free BTUs and saving fossil fuels. Greenhacking at its best.
Handy Tips: Get the book from Lehman's. Though this writer has been as clear as possible with his directions and warnings, he is limited by space and his own somewhat suspect intellect. This is an award-winning hack, but it requires a real understanding of the thermal dynamics involved.

~ So busy coffee is now a food group (hasn't it always been?)
~ Knee deep in knit-writing for Juniper Moon!
~ So busy that the only pics I've managed to take have all been Instagram---> emailed to myself----> dropped into Typepad. Done.
~ Had to promise Tater some new mama-sewn dresses just as soon as all this work deadline craziness is under control because I haven't made her a dang thing lately.
~ Coming to terms with the fact that I'm going to need to cut all new Oliver and S patterns for Bubba... he's grown so much and I really want to revisit his little shorts I made last year. Plus I still have some Spoonflower knits here that were supposed to end up at t-shirts for him.
~ Drooling over Happy Go Lucky! If there's only 1 fabric I splurge on this spring/summer it going to this one... I LOVE the color combination. Maybe a B-day present to myself and a quilt for MY room?
~ STILL need to put the binding on Tater's quilt. Now that its spring. Oops.
~ Anybody else notice that the average daily temperatures are slowly creeping up? Can you say gardening-tractors-hiking-frisbee-picnic-deck-wine? 'Cuz I can!
Spring ya'll! Go outside and play!

Last fall it was the Diablo Octane Driver and this spring it will be the new RAZR X Forged Irons that will make serious waves throughout the golf industry. The new RAZR X Forged Irons are the latest forged offering from Callaway and they will replace the tired Forged X-Prototypes that achieved cult status amongst better players over the last few years. Although I am not crazy about the "RAZR" name, from a technology and aesthetic standpoint the RAZR X Forged irons are nothing short of amazing. From the thin topline to the higher heel and squared-off toe, these irons set up beautifully. A narrow sole with a sharp leading edge and a shortened blade length makes this iron extremely versatile from a wide variety of turf conditions. As far as feel is concerned, the RAZR X over delivers thanks in large part to the premium 1020 carbon steel and Callaway's patented Triple Net Forging process which helps to ensure the tightest of tolerances which cannot be achieved through the standard forging process. In an effort to combat the new groove rule, the RAZR X features Callaway's Tour CC Grooves which maximize spin by tightly spacing up to 30% more conforming grooves. The RAZR X Forged irons are stocked with Rifle Project X steel shafts, however more custom shafts options are available through Callaway. So far, this is the iron we are the most excited for this season. It is already being heavily played on the PGA Tour and it was recently awarded a Gold Medal in Golf Digest's 2011 Hot List.

BMW F800GS, F700GS, F650GS Twin Windscreen - Many riders of the BMW F800GS, F650GS twin want more wind protection than the short stock wind screen provides. Touratech has the best solution with its tall touring windscreen for the BMW.
The Touratech windshield is much wider and taller, and has a different aerodynamic shape. The resulting improved wind protection reduces the (wind) pressure and buffeting on the rider, which results in much more relaxed riding.
Turbulence around the helmet is minimized and protection against the weather improved.
The windscreen is simply mounted in place of the original with the same hardware and mounting points.
NOTE: Will fit BMW F700GS with original BMW windscreen adapter part number 77338531603 installed on the bike. (only available through BMW dealers)
Would not have purchased it had I known that I does not give much improved performance over the standard f800gs windscreen. It has the looks, even this fails upon close scrutiny. There is unevenness on the top middle of the screen. Probably some defect of the cast during moulding process.

The meal was enjoyable and tasty. Good Italain. Nice Neighborhood find. I will be back.
I guess so much has to do with who is serving you. Our waitor, seemingly new, was impatient and not knowledgeable about the menu. When asked questions, he did not offer to find out... we had to ask him to do that. It got frustrating and not like the usual outstanding service.
There are many reasons I come back to this restaurant and one is because they know me well by now and it feels kinda like home. They recently changed their menu and I've noticed that some of the portions are smaller. Tonight it was too noisy and we had to raise our voices to hear each other from across the table. That's not great. Our waiter, who is new and who we had once before, always seems impatient even though he puts on a good facade. We're hoping we don't get him again.
Filet of sole was excellent, as was my wife's cavatelli with sweet sausage and granddaughter's spaghetti bolognese. Pasta e fagioli was generous, but swimming in broth. Service was decent.
I live in the neighborhood, and walked by this restaurant often before finally stopping in for dinner one evening. I'm sorry I waited so long! The food was delicious, the wine selection good and the wait staff friendly ... and it was clear that many in the dining room and at the bar were regulars. Don't miss this restaurant!
Definitely a "gem" though I don't live in the neighborhood I'm always more than happy to venture away from mine & I do have several friends who live on the UES, so I knew Sotto Cinque existed & wanted to patronize an UES establishment during "Second Ave. Retail & Resturant Week". Unfortunately we chose another major stormy night to do so--however we persevered. One friend didn't make it & we'd already ordered for him, so we brought him his dinner & though he re-heated it at home, he enjoyed his pasta! I plan to return for their very well-priced, prixe-fixe brunch very soon--acclaimed "best brunch on the UES!"
The servers were very helpful in accommodating our two grandsons, age 1 and 2. Our food was fresh and moderately priced.
Sotto cinque is the perfect restaurant for a cozy date-night dinner or a family birthday dinner. From te moment we arrived we were greeted with a warm friendly hello and immediately seated (made reservations). The service was excellent an food was even better. Everything is extremely reasonably priced - even the wine list! Highly recommend.
I had another great experience at Sotto Cinque! I met two old friends for a Saturday night dinner and it was really nice to take our time and not be rushed through our experience like other restaurants do. The food was fantastic especially the pasta dishes and salads. The size of the dishes are more than fair and the prices are great for the quality. I highly recommend this restaurant and make a reservation because it is not that big of a space.
This cozy and charming Italian restaurant was exactly what I was hoping for. We were entertaining guests who don't love nearby so we wanted to bring them somewhere nice. The staff was friendly, from the hostess to the waitstaff. I couldn't have asked for anything better! The food was quite good and the ambiance... just perfect! I would definitely come here again.
Great Italian food at affordable prices. I shall return.
We went off wheat so haven't dined here in a few months. We returned tonight and the menu has changed and the portions are smaller. I was able to order something from their previous menu not listed on the current one. The food is good and the service friendly, as always. Prices on many items are higher too.
Chose Sotto Cinque using Open Table. It was a great experience. Most importantly, the food was well prepared and presented. The wine list included affordable options. The prices are fantastic. My only complaint was that the pasta served under my fish special of the evening dish was grossly under-cooked. All the other diners, however, were quite satisfied with their food. My dish, itself, was excellent. I would definitely return to this restaurant.
I went here with3 others. From the bread on, this place was a hit. We ordered a cold antipasto platter for 2 which was ample for the 4 of us. The portions are large and fresh. I ordered lasagna. It cost ONLY $12, well worth it. Delicious. My daughter had penne ala vodka, equally delicious. Her boyfriend had gnocchi and he was thrilled. My husband ordered chicken park, it came with a choice of pasta or salad. He opted for the salad. It was a large dinner salad with the most delicious lemon vinaigrette. His chicken park could have fed two people. The portions are large and really flavorful. They had daily specials, too.
We decided to go here for their special Turkey Day dinner and it was wonderful. I had beet and goat cheese salad, turkey (all white meat) with cinnamon sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts with walnuts and butter sauce, cranberry sauce and mushroom sausage stuffing which was all delcious. A drink, coffee and dessert were also included. We all had something different and everyone was totally satisfied with what they ordered. It was like being at home with family because staff was also so accommodating and generous. Food was so plentiful that there were leftovers to take home.

Nice to meet you, lovely residents of Roleplayer Guild!
My name is Ruby.
I found this site through google after the last roleplay site I was a part of tanked. Unfortunately that happens a lot to the smaller communities, so i'm taking a deep breath and diving into a larger one.
Let see, what to say about me...
Well i'm 15 years old, but not currently in school. Unfortunately I have some pretty bad kidney problems that keep me bound to home, aside from the occasional journey into the outside world. Though even then I can't go far. So I have a lot of free time, when i'm not being homeschooled, for fun things like reading, anime and roleplaying. So I guess that makes me a bit of a nerdy shut-in, but thats just how it is.
Anyway I'm looking forwards to getting to know some fun people and really becoming a part of the bigger RP Guild community.

Filter Results |
2 years and keep goingPros: Works like a charm, using as an htpc and media server, runs 24/7 most of the time Cons: none so far Did you find this review helpful? |
One Year old this monthPros: This is just an update. This Board is still working like a Champ! It's been updated from an Intel G530 to I3 2100. I felt this is an important update since we've run it 24/7 for a year. This is our Home server/HTPC. Cons: Still Non. Did you find this review helpful? |
Wouldn't PostPros: *Looks nice Cons: *A friend of mine very knowledgeable with CIS help me put this together and after we were finished the mobo would not post. Other Thoughts: I read lots of reviews before I bought this mobo. It seemed to have work for most people but a good chunk of customers received a defective mobo. I was in that chunk. So think hard before you buy this because you might get 2 or 3 DOA before you get a working one. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Outdated?Pros: Fits in my ITX case Cons: So far it doesn't work. 4 BIOS beep codes on startup. My guess is that the motherboard ships with an outdated BIOS. I don't know of any other work-around other than buying another (lower-end) CPU, which I then can't return, just so I can install Windows and upgrade the BIOS. Other Thoughts: In the olden days, you could still boot up a motherboard, even if the CPU was newer than the supported ones by the BIOS, just so you could upgrade it. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Good value, no onboard USB 3.0Pros: Great price, nice BIOS & options Cons: No USB 3.0 pin-outs, drivers CD didn't work (using Win 8 Rel Preview) Other Thoughts: Looks like a nice little board, will see if it lasts. Using with Intel i3-2105 3.1Ghz & Kingston 256GB SSD; installed in Antec's tiny ISK 300-150 case which actually came with USB 3.0 jacks on the front panel (!) Unfortunately, this mobo only has USB 2.0 pinouts on the board, so I ended up using the provided USB 3.0-to-2.0 converter cable. It has USB 3.0s on the back of course, but would've been an extra bonus to have them accessible on the front. The only other issue was the enclosed CD which produced assert errors when trying to launch the drivers installer (in Windows 8 Release Preview); ended up downloading drivers from ASRock's website, all seems good, Win 8 boots & runs very fast. Did you find this review helpful? |
It just worksPros: - Great for Mini ITX build Cons: None that I can find. Not really sure what everyone is complaining about. I love how most of the people who can't get it to work also claim to have a "High" level of technical competency. HA! Other Thoughts: Booted up first time no issues. Paired it with a LIAN LI PC-Q07case, Intel i2-2125 CPU and 4 GB of Corsair XMS3 1333 RAM. Motherboard even started in AHCI mode, recognized all physical drives... I built it for someone else, but after 2 months they're still happy with it. Did you find this review helpful? |
First and Last ASRock moboPros: Small. Cons: Board arrived with outdated BIOS version which redered it completely incompatible with the Ivy Bridge CPU I ordered. I did my homework and selected a CPU that ASRock has listed on their QVL. Needless to say it would not POST without a BIOS upgrade. I contacted tech support with ASRock and requested an updated BIOS chip. They didn't have one in stock so I had to wait nearly 3 weeks for one to be shipped from Taiwan, updated, and then shipped to me. Other Thoughts: I am now in the process of trying to get a replacement through ASRock as my 30-day window with Newegg for RMA/Refund expired while waiting for ASRock to ship me an updated BIOS chip. This has been the worse experience with any mobo manufacturer I've ever had. I'm about to write-off this purchase as a complete loss rather than continue to deal with ASRock anymore. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Nice board, customer support questionablePros: Small board, works great. Nice features for the price. Perfect for an HTPC. Cons: Support is questionable. The board shipped with firmware version 1.30 and 2.20 is out. ASRock only offers updates through Windows. Other Thoughts: Overall the board does what it's supposed to and works really well. I hope I don't have to contact support in the future as I am unsure of how helpful they'll actually be. This is my first and last ASRock product based on this experience. Did you find this review helpful? |
Works, but slow customer supportPros: Good feature set for such a small board. Cons: Old BIOS revision doesn't support IB out of the box Other Thoughts: I had no access to a Sandy Bridge processor to flash an updated BIOS for Ivy, so I was left with an inoperable product out-of-the-box (not really the manufacturer's fault). I called and they took my address and said they would ship me an IC with the latest revision ASAP. Several days went by and I inquired and was told that they were "conducting inventory" and should be done soon and would send it out then. I grew tired of waiting and ended up flashing the BIOS with a Arduino+serprog-duino+flashrom. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Will not postPros: It worked great, when it worked. Feature rich and durable. Cons: I updated the bios today using ASROCKS windows exe. Everything looked like it went ok. As soon as I reboot, I lost post. I have been battling this board for 5 hours now and give up. I hope their customer supports will help me Other Thoughts: I suppose for 90 bucks I got my years worth out of it. This was the first and may be the last time I go with an ASROCk product based on how they help me out. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |

4dr Sdn I4 CVT 2.0 S
Starting at | Starting at 26 MPG City - 34 MPG Highway
The Sentra has always been a good value, but with prices lower in 2010 than in 2009 and a minor but refreshing redesign this year, Nissan has staked out its territory in the compact sedan market, against such foes as the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. Fuel economy is great across the board, with the 2.0-liter CVT cranking out the highest gas mileage at 26 city and 34 highway.
While not a full redesign, the 2010 Sentra gets quite a few upgrades, including new headlights and taillights, new interior fabrics and three new paint colors. New options include a navigation system with rear-view camera. But most importantly, Nissan has dropped the prices on all Sentras at all trim levels, with the base model Sentra 2.0 with CVT coming in $130 cheaper this year. The savings go up with each trim level -- the top-end Sentra SE-R Spec V drops its price by $1080 for 2010.
There are six varieties of Sentra, four of which are powered by a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine making 140 hp and 147 lb-ft of torque. These four 2.0 models ? 2.0, S, SR and SL -- have a CVT standard, with a 6-speed manual available on the base 2.0 model only.

Excellent non-technical and very level headed documentary on the recent experiment at Cern which appeared to have clocked neutrinos traveling faster than the speed of light which has raised such a buzz here and wordwide..
This documentary is highly informative on many of the main issues without requiring even an O level in physics or maths.
An interesting side point from one of the possible explanations (neutrinos went through 'hyperspace/wormhole) is that if that is so, it may be possible to calculate the curvature of our universe from the difference. It wont accurate as we dont know if the universe is actually a shere, a hypersphere, or a flat(ish) brane, let alone a parabolic brane or one of the more exotic shapes.
... Anybody fancy doing some of the calculations? hehehe
.. and you don't need to understand a word of that to get a great deal from this documentary.
Highly recommended viewing for all.
