(CNN) — Two ferocious storm systems are expected to converge overnight, resulting in what could be a historic blizzard for parts of the Northeast.
A winter blast churning westward across the country and a cold front barreling northward along the East Coast will amass, potentially dumping feet of snow.
Boston could have its largest snowstorm in recorded history -- up to 30 inches, CNN meterologists say. Hartford could see record-breaking snowfall as well.
Wind will also be a major concern, says HLN Meteorologist Bob Van Dillen. Gusts could reach 75 mph along Cape Cod and 55 mph in the Long Island Sound, causing coastal flooding. "The wind will basically push the water westward, making the tides rise from about three to five feet."
"This will bring more miserable weather for those affected by Superstorm Sandy," says CNN Meterologist Dave Hennen.
The storm could cause further beach erosion, according to CNN Meterologist Sarah Dillingham.
Boston could see snowfall of 2 to 3 inches per hour, and 24 inches within 24 hours, Hennen says. "We expect snow and than rain, and severe coastal flooding."
Parts of the region are under a Blizzard Watch.
This storm could rival the crippling "Great Blizzard" of 1978.

http://www.cryocath.com Toronto Stock Exchange Symbol: CYT
MONTREAL, May 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - CryoCath(R) Technologies Inc., the global leader in cryotherapy products to treat cardiac arrhythmias, is pleased to report on its participation in Heart Rhythm 2008, the most prominent and comprehensive educational event on heart rhythm disorders. The event was held from May 14 to 17 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco. This year, the meeting attracted a record-breaking 13,600 attendees and provided 250 educational opportunities in multiple formats. The world's leading electrophysiologists presented a broad range of heart rhythm topics.
CryoCath marked its presence at this prestigious gathering with 12 poster presentations and 10 well-attended oral presentations. For the most part, these presentations focused on the Arctic Front(R) cryoballoon system for pulmonary-vein isolation in the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Other presentations dealt with CryoCath's family of focal catheters for the treatment of a range of arrhythmias.
CryoCath's presence at Heart Rhythm 2008 provided the company with an excellent opportunity to further familiarize physicians with the growing body of evidence in favour of the cryoballoon approach in the treatment of AF. This included the consistent, positive results from multiple centres reported at the most recent Annual Meeting of the German Cardiac Society in Mannheim in March 2008.
A continuing area of discussion among electrophysiologists throughout
the Heart Rhythm meeting was the possibility of injury and potentially
fatal esophageal fistula due to ablation. Specifically, two presentations
focused on this problem. As reported by Dr. Hiroshi Nakagawa, an animal
study found that heat-based ablations can cause progressive ulceration of
the esophagus, leading to esophagitis and fistula. In contrast, further

A "positive intervention" is a "happiness activity" - a term coined by positive psychologists to describe an action one can take to improve their psychological well-being. For example: maintaining a gratitude journal and writing at bedtime three good things you are grateful for, writing about your "best possible self" to cultivate optimism, conducting one random act of kindness a day. The interventions are like gym exercises for the mind, training it to engage in thoughts, feelings, and types of behavior that will make you happier. Performing one random act of kindness is like going through one repetition of lifting weights. In itself it only has residual value, but performing it continuously over time builds the mental muscle mass of kindness and generosity. With time it becomes a skill, a habit, and a part of who you are. When you read books about positive psychology you may think that these interventions are special things that need to be taken on, a deviation from daily routine, something that you would not normally do every day. But opportunities to work out those muscles lie everywhere on the path of your day. They just need to be given the right attention and experienced in full.
This morning I stopped by the local Deli (which I do often) and took a minute to examine my experience. The TV is on and people stand while waiting for their sandwiches, pouring coffee into their cups, and talking about the news or the game that is on. These short cuts of conversations add up to an interesting experience potentially combining two important aspects of positive psychology and well-being: fostering social relationships and being immersed in the present moment. I paid, lingered a little to watch TV, and exchanged goodbyes with the Deli owner. Byram Karasu writes about living an extraordinary existence in an ordinary life. I believe the New York Deli is a great example of that idea, turning millions of groggy pre-coffee creatures each morning into smiling human beings. The New York Deli is with no doubt a positive intervention. At least for me.

I'm contemplating giving this a go.. Amahi and I'm just wondering if anyone has had any experience with it.
I'll be using my old dinousaur of a PC as a server as I've decided that I really want more functionality than just a NAS box, I like the look of Windows home server, simply because it looks fairly easy to maintain... I could install Server 2003 on the machine but it'd have to install a vast array of apps for it to do what I wanted.
This seems to have everything built in and it's Linux so it's not only free but hopefully should also be more secure than anything Windows based. I'm ok with using Linux, not the best but I can plod along fairly ok in terminal.

Having already earned back-to-back spots on Connecticut Magazine's Best of Connecticut in 2009 and 2010, Liquid Lunch keeps bellies full and spoons out of the unemployment line with a slurp-worthy twist on midday meals. Culinary Institute of America graduate and owner Fred Bialek and his wife, Michele, were inspired to open the first Liquid Lunch in 2004, when they'd grown tired of lunchtime standards such as pizza, burgers, and lightly salted printouts of old PowerPoint presentations.
Today, at Liquid Lunch's still-growing roster of locations, a rotating lineup of gourmet soups cascades across the menu alongside six staple soups, including vegetarian lentil and split pea with ham. For an extra crunch, diners can plunge fork-first into salads, or explore healthy Sammiches, which escort taste buds around the globe with names influenced by their ingredients and spear-pickles engraved with necessary passport information.
Bikram Yoga Shelton's certified instructors lead 90-minute classes that take place within a sultry practice space with 58% humidity and temperatures that reach as high as 103 degrees. In the therapeutic heat, they help students of all abilities achieve deeper, safer stretches and detoxifying perspiration. They walk their pupils through two breathing exercises and a powerful sequence of 26 standing and seated poses in each class to challenge muscles more effectively than bench-pressing a chakra. Each posture helps unleash torrents of oxygenating circulation throughout the body, promoting healthy organ function as the sustained stretches bolster stamina and flexibility. After class, students can rinse themselves in the onsite showers and retrieve any restless spirit animals they stashed in the studio's lockers.
Dolce Vida Medical Spa features skilled injectors, as seen on the Style Network, performing injections with Botox, Juvederm, Juvederm Voluma, Radiesse, and more. Highly-trained clinicians perform Venus Freeze body contouring treatments and a range of facial treatments, including Hydrafacials. Dolce Vida also offers IPL photofacials, hair removal services, massages, and an abundance of skin care treatments administered with products from Obagi and Eminence.
The Edge's Revolution program is an eight-week body-change contest that fuses nutritional guidance, personal training, and weekly group exercise sessions. Trainers document your metamorphosis with before-and-after measurements and photos, and by meticulously chiseling fitness goals into stone. Start sculpting with one personal-training and Pilates session, then sweat in weekly group workouts that prevent plateaus by pushing boundaries like a gerrymandering student council president. An included nutrition guide with DVD joins body sculptors on fitness sojourns with eating tips to supplement gym work. Revolutionaries also get access to a community that spans from the gym to an online group, providing a resource for advice, support, and camaraderie.
Rejuvenate Medical Spa, housed in the Women's Health Center, employs a licensed staff to polish and pamper the body's wrapping paper with restorative skin treatments aimed at promoting youthful textures and vibrant tones. The Vitalize chemical peel is a dermatological treatment enlisted in an arms race to retire pigments, bully blemishes, and eliminate facial lines. The process begins its transforming tale with a facial cleanser, which readies the exterior surfaces of the face for rejuvenation by ridding the skin of airborne bacteria, acquired oils, and obscene alleyway graffiti. Then, after moisturizing the face, a skin specialist uses SkinMedica products to erase acne scars and the cruel signatures of age, time, and Founding Fathers. A final slathering of SPF 30+ sunscreen protects newly revitalized skin cells from sun damage and light rays pretending to be comets.
At HSC, the bread-hugged, gourmet menu items earned the 2010 Best Sandwich vote from the Fairfield County Weekly —a victory achieved through a blend of fresh ingredients and fill-up portions. Positioned front and center on the café menu, the aged Vermont cheddar cheeseburger scores savory points by featuring all-natural patties made from unfussed-with beef. The rest of the menu reads like a musical playlist for diverse tastes. The China Girl jazzes up a chicken wrap with Asian elements such as the ginger-pineapple glaze ($7.95), and the Magnificent Seven tops tomato and mozzarella with pesto and red peppers ($8.50). The smear of Cajun mayo adds spice to the turkey- and ham-stuffed Fire on the Bayou, which is served warm ($7.95). The rest of the options include salads, breakfast food, and an extensive specialty café drink menu packed with sips that sound more like desserts; the Snickers or candy-cane lattes should satisfy a snappy sweet tooth.

The Hessians were 18th-century German soldiers hired through their rulers by the British Empire. About 30,000 German soldiers served in the Thirteen Colonies during the American Revolutionary War; nearly half were from the Hesse region of Germany; the others came from similar small German states. In the context of the British service, they were all referred to as "Hessians." The American colonists called them mercenaries. They were hired in units, not as individuals. They received wages, but the prince of their respective states received most of the funds; Britain found it easier to borrow money to pay for their service than to recruit its own soldiers. The British used the Hessians in several conflicts, including in Ireland, but they are most widely associated with combat operations in the American Revolutionary War. They provided extensive manpower to support the American Loyalist cause. The pro-independence side made propaganda use of the fact that the soldiers were non-British mercenaries. They also offered them land bounties to desert and join the Americans. Several more German units were placed on garrison duty in the British Isles to free up British regulars for service in North America.

Food Shot: Dodol Cina or Kue Keranjang
Back in Bandung and most of Jawa Barat, people know this delicacy as "Dodol Cina", where dodol is the generic name of sweets usually made from sticky rice flour mixed with sugar and cooked to obtain the sticky chewy consistency. The "Cina" label signify that it is closely related with Chinese culture; indeed it is, as Dodol Cina are seldom found outside of Imlek celebration, a.k.a. Chinese New Year.
In Bali, following central and eastern Java custom, the widely recognized name is "Kue Keranjang", which freely translated as "Basket Cake"; due to its creation which uses basket shaped container made with leafs. The modernized version, as pictured above uses plastic wrapping instead.
Originally Dodol Cina or Kue Keranjang is called Nian Gao (年糕), and has it root deeply with Chinese New Year Celebration, and beliefs that it symbolize a year-long full with sweet live-moments. On a lighter and practical application, this cake is enjoyed in three way at least; as it is, steamed, and batter fried.
Consumed as it is, Dodol Cina or Kue Keranjang taste is dominated with sweetness, a little hint of the sticky rice taste and its fine grains, with moderate caramel taste; it is also very sticky and gluey. The drier version has more dominant starchy taste, and it also loses most of it's stickiness; it provides a more interesting eating experience in my opinion.
Steaming is usually applied when the Dodol Cina or Kue Keranjang has becoming over dry, as it can be stored for a long time when it is dried. Batter frying involves coating of medium-dried Dodol Cina or Kue Keranjang with egg and little flour, seasoned with a bit of salt then pan fried until it becomes moist and limp. This last method gives Dodol Cina or Kue Keranjang added layer of savoury richness into the sweet and starchy cake. Both steamed and batter-fried, the cake is sliced thinly first.
As alternative, people are also consuming it with shredded coconut, or even treat it as substitute for jelly jam to be used in other kind of cookies. Which one is your favourite? (byms)

Is WheatGrass Juice Paleo?
I was wondering whether or not wheat grass juice would be considered Paleo?
I ask the question because I'm thinking it has a different chemical make up than the grain since its the grass that is being juiced. Or do you think one would still encounter the allergic type reaction incurred from eating the grain by drinking the juice of the grass? :dunno:
I think wheat grass is paleo, not the juice. After all I guess our ancestors could have found wheat grass growing in the wild but I doubt they'd juice them.
Wheat does not do me good so I would avoid it, besides...humans do not eat grass! Pass on the steak!! ;)

Turning your GreenGov Ideas into Action
This past Saturday, the GreenGov Challenge came to a close – with over 14,000 federal and military personnel submitting over 5,300 ideas and casting more than 165,000 votes. When we first launched this program, we weren't sure what kind of response we'd receive. But it's safe to say that this outpouring of participation by the federal community has shattered our expectations.
We'd like to give a shout out to all those across government who helped promote this initiative – from EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson to the U.S. Coast Guard -- and of course, a special thanks to the thousands who shared their brightest ideas and voted for the best ones.
Even though voting has ended, the GreenGov Challenge isn't over. Tomorrow, some of the top ideas will be presented to the Steering Committee on Federal Sustainability, a group comprised of a senior official from each agency who is responsible for delivering each agency's sustainability plan. The meeting will be streamed live on Whitehouse.gov/GreenGov starting at 3:30pm EST.
Be sure to tune-in to learn how we're taking this bottom-up approach to greening government to the next level.

White's Hottest Moments in Pop Culture
The headlines may be written in black, but white has always been a newsmaker. From the time James Dean popularized the plain T-shirt in '55, to the White Album in '68, to the sleek iPod's debut in '01, the color has been cool as long as, well, Betty White.

The King of Pop debuted the Moonwalk wearing one sequined white glove at Motowns 25th Anniversary TV Special. Fans were immediately spotted following the trend, but MJ was the true gloved one. Twenty-six years later, the original glove sold for $350,000.

|You're makin' it really tough on us Rose_ID helpers, giving us nothing to go on but a photo - and the bloom is at such an advanced age.
Read the Rose-ID Forum's FAQ, willya? : ) Or how about at least checking a post titled "A helpful suggestion if you're new here" (by Northspruce). That post is on the main Rose-ID Forum page (where yours is).
Without any Rose-Characteristics info at all from you, and just that photo, I can only make the wild guess that the rose *might* be either Brigadoon or Folklore.
|So sorry. I was lulled into complacency by the title of the thread and misunderstood the complexity of the problem. Didn't mean to upset anybody. After studying the FAQ I will be sure to be better prepared if I ever ask another question.
- Posted by JohnReb_VA7 z7 VA (My Page) on Sun, Jul 10, 05 at 15:56
|I wasn't upset. Here's the problem. Somebody walks into a police station and says "I'd like to report a missing person. The person is male and has brown hair. Please find him for me."
What will the detectives say in reply to that request?
My two wild-guess names for your mystery-rose were based on what your photo showed about the bloom's form and its petals. There is a third rose whose bloom-colors look like yours. It's name is VooDoo. But I know your rose isn't VooDoo because its petals aren't shaped like VooDoo's.
Identifying a mystery-rose is almost always "a process of eliminiation." Knowing certain identity-characteristics is what allows us to elimate roses which "look like" the mystery rose - but aren't it. Just like I did with your rose and VooDoo. That's why this forum's "rose-ID detectives" NEED to be given as many identity-clues as possible ...clues like the rose's Leaf-color and Glossiness (or lack of it), petal-count, comparative Fragrance-strength, etc, etc, etc.
|A big part of the problem is that modern bedding roses (hybrid teas, floribundas etc.) such as this one tend to be homogenous, looking alike except for color. Old European roses can also be very similar to one another. In both instances there are (or were) a great number of cultivars selected that fall within narrow parameters, in the first instance deliberately, with hybridizers aiming for certain characters that epitomize the group(s), the second (in part) because of there long being a comparatively limited amount of genetic material to work with (until new species were introduced from Asia).

The problem could be for many different reasons.
You really need to get it diagnosed by a Volvo specialty shop to see what causing the problems. They should be able to pull out diagnostic trouble codes from the affected modules and be able to estimate the parts and repair cost for you.
Most generic diag. computer tend to display false codes on Volvo, that's why I suggest a Volvo shop.

Bone Dogs
A Novel
February 2010
Trade Paperback · 256 Pages
Trade Paperback · 256 Pages
Recommended for These Courses
Tuesday Price is a wiseass, a boozer, and a loser. Only his wife Linda recalls a smarter, better man, and she's losing faith in that man's return. When Tuesday befriends a strange, silent Vietnam vet who eternally sits with a cooler of beer in a disabled pickup, Linda's had enough. At her departure, Tuesday is left with only his new friend as a companion—until the old vet is found dead, and Tuesday is blamed. Alone and haunted by regret, Tuesday's daily life deteriorates until he must unearth his sordid past to reach a worthwhile future. But his past is a tangle of murder, deceit, and abandonment for which his only punishment has been self-inflicted. In order to reclaim all that has been lost, he returns to his deserted childhood home and, with hammer and nails, rebuilds the sagging structure, reassembling a history quite different than the one he'd believed while finding the future not at all what he'd expected.
About the Author
Roger Alan Skipper is a lifelong resident of Garrett County, Maryland. He is the author of the novels Tear Down the Mountain and The Baptism of Billy Bean.
Praise for Bone Dogs
"Skipper moves easily in dark terrain, but he's also conversant with redemption; [Bone Dogs] bears an odd sense of charm that has roots in authentic characters and Skipper's ease of language. This is a flinty novel of troubled times for these troubled times. —Publishers Weekly
"Bone Dogs is an exceptional novel, particularly impressive for its distinctive voice and vivid rendering of place. Roger Skipper is a writer who deserves a wide and appreciative audience." —Ron Rash, author of Serena
"Bone Dogs is a truly amazing testament to the power of storytelling, and Tuesday Price, a poor drunk from Ransom, West Virginia, is one of the most beautifully rendered and flawed and honest characters in all of fiction. If Roger Alan Skipper doesn't win prizes and acclaim for this novel, then I figure all of us writers better just pack it in and head for the hills." —Donald Ray Pollock, author of Knockemstiff
"Skipper moves easily in dark terrain, but he's also conversant with redemption; [Bone Dogs] bears an odd sense of charm that has roots in authentic characters and Skipper's ease of language. This is a flinty novel of troubled times for these troubled times." —Publishers Weekly
Praise for The Baptism of Billy Bean
"Riveting … Pitch-perfect dialogue, a skillfully drawn supporting cast and a memorable portrait of the changing face of Appalachia enhance this impressive character study." —Publishers Weekly
"Skilled at developing memorable characters … brilliant … There is a delightful sense of country noir and world-weariness here that hard-boiled crime fans will savor." —Booklist
Praise for Tear Down the Mountain
"A deeply resonate novel that peels away the stereotypes about Appalachia so we can see the real struggles of people fighting for the land and the life that is quickly disappearing. Skipper writes in the richly textured language that is unmistakably the voice of Appalachia." —Erik Reece, author of Lost Mountain
"Skipper knows his characters and the worlds they inhabit or pass through, and he brings both protagonists and environment to life in powerful language that ultimately becomes a sort of hard-edged poetry." —William Gay, author of Twilight

Neon Racers
After a brief romance with pink and sky blue, cycling fashion turned back to its 1980's day-glo roots. In 2011, neon color was back in the peloton— not just for safety, but for fashion and style. Bicycle makers and cycle-fashion companies alike have accented their product lines with stylish visibility.
