Post-Oakland thoughts
posted by Dale Lolley
@ Ben Roethlisberger played an outstanding game, leading the team to 31 points while continuing his hot play on third downs, where the Steelers converted 8 of 14 for the game.
But he once again had a chance to lead a fourth quarter, game-winning drive and failed.
In the past two seasons, Roethlisberger has led exactly one game-winner, and that came against lowly Indianapolis last season.
In his first seven seasons, Roethlisberger led 26 such drives, many of which came when he was, you know, just a game manager.
How do you explan the sack problem under Wiz and Grimm? Shall I post the numbers again? Was our line terrible under Wiz and Grimm? Heck no.
Ben 295 Att 30 sacks
P.Manning 497 Att 13 sacks
Plummer 521 Att 15 sacks
Favre 540 Att 12 sacks
Ben 261 Atts 23 sacks
P.Manning 453 Atts 17 sacks
C.Palmer 509 Atts 19 sacks
Brady 530 Atts 26 sacks
Ben 469 Atts 46 sacks
P.Manning 557 Atts 14 sacks
Brees 554 Atts 18 sacks
Rivers 467 Atts 27 sacks
The evidence is clear
So, Ben used to play poorly for 3 quarters and then played great as the comeback-kid in the 4th.
Now, he plays great for 3 quarters and plays poorly in the 4th.
Got it.
What's funny is that all the stats that certain Ben "critics" throw around in support of their theory that he's not one of the elite, can be used against other QBs and they never are. Sacks, Rings, first half rating, second half rating, Playoff wins, overall win/loss record - it doesn't matter. Ben stacks up very well against any QB in the league. He's not perfect. And neither is Peyton, Brady, Rogers, Eli, Rivers, Stafford, etc...
Peyton looks average under pressure and choked in playoffs for years until he relied on something other than his jitterbug passing to get a ring.
Brady hasn't won a ring since he stopped cheating and looks equially average when under pressure and drops like a girl at the sight of a defender in the backfield.
Rogers takes all the sacks that Ben does. His line isn't worse than ours. One-and-done in the playoffs last year.
Rivers - for all the regular season stats he piles up, what has he done?
Try to appreciate the fact that we have a winner of a franchise QB in Ben, even with all his inperfections. Bitching and moaning about his imperfections isn't going to change anything. He is what he is and we've won a LOT of games with him. He won't be around forever and we might have to agonize through another period like we did between Bradshaw and Ben before we find another one.
As I've said before, rather than always looking for the warts enjoy Ben while he's playing, he'll be gone someday and someone like Dixon, Leftwich or Batch will step in and then you'll see exactly how good Ben is/was.

Brady cheated? Oh I thought it was bellicheat. Brady had put his team in position to win twice but the D failed him. Its ironic how you guys dont blame OUR QB for late game faliures but yet you blame Brady in similar situations. Hypocrisy.
Aaron Rodgers doesnt take the sacks that Ben does. Ben is the most sacked qb in the league. Followed by Vick or Cutler. Rodgers has proven he is an elite decision maker.
Rivers- See this is more hyporcrisy. You compare Rivers to Ben individually but then you throw a TEAM comparrison in at the end. Rivers has better stats than Ben ON A LESSER TEAM. What do you think those stats would be if Rivers had the supporting cast that Ben has?
Ben is a winner because he is a STEELER. Put him on the Bucs, Browns etc and he has zero rings in my opinion. We have won a lot of games with Kordell too something like 45 in 3 or 4 years. No Super Bowls but did we do all that winning with that BUM because Kordell is great or because the STEELERS are?
I have never called Ben a bum nor am I saying Kordell is equal or better (absurd) KORDELL SUX but we went 13-3 with him. Doesnt mean he is great just means the team is.

Let's go over the tropes, shall we?
+ Minnesota takes the early lead
–In every ALDS game last season, Minnesota scored first.
—Minnesota scored first today, jumping out to a 3-0 lead, which looked unbreakable as long as Francisco Liriano was on his game. In the first couple innings, Liriano looked downright unhittable. So the Yankees did what the famed Yankee teams of the late 90s and early 00s would do, they waited, working the pitch count until Liriano was over 100 pitches in the sixth inning, and then took advantage of his tired arm.
+ Yankee bullpen comes up big, Minnesota's does not.
–Game two of last year's ALDS comes to mind, the eleven inning affair the Yankees eventually won after heroics from David Robertson and other bullpen members. Tonight, after a mediocre kept-them-in-the-game-for-six performance from Sabathia, Boone Logan, David Robertson, Kerry Wood and Mariano Rivera combined to keep the Twins scoreless in a two run game. On the flip side, Jesse Crain surrendered a two run home run to Mark Teixeira that proved to be the difference–last year, in game two, Joe Nathan first allowed Alex Rodriguez to tie the game in the ninth inning, and then Jose Mijares served up Teixeira's down-the-line game winner.
+ The Yankee offense is the Yankee offense.
–Every Yankee starter except Gardner and Thames had a hit tonight, and those two reached via a walk each. The Yankees didn't score till the sixth inning, but when they broke through, the crowd at Target Field went so quiet that when Granderson tripled and Teixeira homered you could have been excused if you had thought those clutch hits were instead outs. The Twins have legitimate hitters that can compete with anyone, a franchise player in Mauer and future Hall of Famer in Thome, but the Yankees led the Majors in runs scored this season, and showed why tonight.
+ Umpiring controversy
–Last year it was a foul ball that was fair, this year a fly ball caught on a shoe-string grab by Greg Golson that was ruled a trap instead of a catch. Had it been correctly called a catch it would have ended the game; since it was a trap it meant that Mariano Rivera, who'd already thrown twenty pitches for the four out save attempt, had to now pitch to Jim Thome with a runner on first.
Fortunately, for Yankee fans, Thome popped up on the first pitch and a crisis was averted…
+ Minnesota can't win in Minnesota.
–The Twins are now 0-6 vs the Yankees in the postseason at Minnesota.

Many of those who talk to us on this show about history projects talk about making history "come alive" - to resurrect history.
But for one village in Kerry, history is quite present – they're using it to help them prosper. But, not only that, they're also using history to help them plan for the future. Ronan Kelly reported from the Bunán Heritage Park near Kenmare where he talked to Stevie O'Sullivan and Danny O'Connor.
Travel writer and history graduate, Eoghan Corry joined Myles to discuss some recent trends in historic holidays.
Battlefields are big business this year and next. France and Belgium are in the front line, while Gallipoli is also making a big pitch for Irish tourists.
Eoghan recommends that local history groups should seize the opportunity of the centenary of WW1 to organise group trips to see the battlefields. Mainstream group tours are not going to be good at this, despite their efforts to cash in on the battlefield boom. Go to an agent and supply your own guide and they will do the rest.
Turkish Airlines is especially interested in bringing as many Irish to Gallipoli as can be managed.
Also consider:
The trails of Irish saints are all over Europe.
Dun Scotus burial place is walking distance from the more famous Cologne cathedral
St Brigid's relics are next door to Lisbon airport
Daniel O'Connell's house is walking distance from the cruise ship berths in Genoa
The historic sites of Tasmania are full of William Smith O'Brien.
To mark the 150th Birthday of W.B. Yeats, a selection of his poems have been put to music by Michael Scott.
Songs from the Swans at Coole will be performed at the Pavilion Theatre, Dunlaoghaire on Saturday, 13 June at 8pm.
The 1840s marked perhaps the darkest time in our country's history when the Great Famine swept through the country and decimated our population.
Myles was joined by Ciarán Reilly, the author of Strokestown and the Great Irish Famine. The book gives a detailed insight into the many varied experiences of the Great Hunger for those who inhabited a Roscommon estate in the 1840s.
Ciarán's research is based on the Strokestown Park House Archive, one of the largest estate collections in existence with more than 50,000 documents. which gives a great insight into famine life,
Strokestown Park – Background
Strokestown Park is a visitor attraction, including Strokestown Park House, a Georgian mansion preserved with original furnishings and fabrics, as well as the Irish National Famine Museum.
Strokestown Park house was the family home of the Pakenham Mahon family, built on the site of a 16th century castle
Its archive covers about 300 years of the estate's history, from their arrival as Cromwellian soldiers in the 1650s right up to 1979 when the estate was sold. About half of the material though relates to the famine period, this is valuable, in a lot of other estate archives, documents have been lost.
There's official documentation - food and relief - correspondence between the landlord and his agent - correspondence during the famine years - most unique thing are letters concerning ordinary people - nearly 1000 petitions from people looking for work / relief.
The estate was just over 11,000 acres. The subdivision was great with families of 8-10 people trying to survive on very small plots. On one particular townland there were 44 families eking out an existence on 60 acres.
The archive at Strokestown gives an insight into individual circumstances and how people were affected by the famine.
For instance, the widow Kilmartin buried her husband in 1848 and petitioned for help from the Mahons, saying her father in law has moved in and she now has to leave the house. It just shows the callousness of some people at the height of the famine. People are looking after their own patch as the famine worsens. This archive document poses a question about the value of women in society - were they seen as worthless once their husbands had died?
Denis Mahon, landlord of the estate
For 9 years before Denis Mahon became landlord,, the estate was without a manager after Reverend Morris Mahon had been declared a lunatic.
Denis Mahon was engaged in a court battle for years with a cousin to see who would be given the ownership of the estate.
He inherited the estate in Nov 1845 a few weeks after the famine began. The tenants hadn't paid their rent in years due to bad harvests so were in debt when Denis Mahon took over. (A local agent kept record of debts but didn't press tenants very hard).
Denis Mahon is generally depicted in local memory as this arch evictor and depopulator. But the archive shows a benevolent side - he tries valiantly in 1846 to relieve people / give them food. A lot of other landlords made the argument that these people were not in fact their tenants, but Mahon took responsibility. The efforts that he went to are surprising - he's depicted as being absentee or living in London but he's actually on the ground.
The Landlord Major Denis Mahon was assassinated in November 1847 at the height of The Great Famine of Ireland. Two days before his death, the parish priest denounced Mahon from the pulpit.
Three men were hung for the crime, but it's widely believed that the perpetrators got away. In the months that followed several members of his family were threatened, there are letters in the archive substantiating this.
After the murder of Mahon, his son-in -law took over and decided to evict almost 2000 people from 1848-1849.
The strange thing about these evictions is there's no popular backlash / community action / people seem to accept it. The ones left behind and left on the land keep quiet and say very little.
Population Decline
Almost 40% of the Strokestown population had gone by 1851. It was a scene of desolation. Up to 5000 people emigrated from the Strokestown area alone.
Inaugural Irish Famine Summer School
From Wednesday the 17th until Sunday the 21st June, Strokestown Park will be open to the public for the inaugural 'Irish Famine Summer School'. Carolin Callery, director of the event, joined Myles to talk about it.
There will be lectures, workshops, drama and music relating to the Great Irish Famine
In the afternoons on Wednesday to Friday there'll be old craft displays. The whole town is involved. There's Irish music in the town, two theatre performances, tour options to go to local workhouses and medieval villages, plus session in the library to learn a few lines of Irish.
On Saturday and Sunday, there will be talks by local historians.

On The History Show, we are acutely aware of the value of people's own personal histories and their eyewitness accounts to help build a picture of what a particular time was like. We've come across a website which does just that. Log onto Irish Community Archive Network and you'll find a variety of stories and recollections relating to local heritage, places and people. In this piece called Before I Forget, Gerry O'Mahony vividly recalls a family tragedy in October, 1972. We asked 12 year old Matthew Vachet from Ballincollig to read it for us.
Before I Forget...By Gerry O'Mahony
Late 1967 in Monatrea, the author is seen on the extreme right. Also included are his mother holding baby Catherine O'Mahony, and Angela and Maurice, siblings of author Gerry O'Mahony
Gerry O'Mahony
October 27th 1972
The Day After
We, the children, slept last night but really it was no more than resting our eyes and bodies.
But there was one less body sleeping in our house.
I don't think my mother or father slept at all though, they are still trying to carry on the normal morning duties and make it seem like nothing has changed.
Things have changed though. We have changed in the blink of a small child's eye.
Mam calls us up to get some breakfast and out of pure habit she calls her name without thinking. And then she bursts into tears, as does my father. I feel close to getting sick, 'womiting' as my godmother May calls it. A rumbling feeling in the pit of my stomach: probably just hunger pangs from the night's sleep.
As children, we are used to playing games and we try to see if we can make things change just by pretending that what happened wasn't real. But it has happened and it is real.
My sister Angela is sitting at the table crying her eyes out and my brother Maurice is close to doing the same; it's as if we are all trying to vent our anger and sorrow through our eyes.
I can't seem to cry, just a feeling of dizziness in my head, and I don't speak for hours that day. I can't pretend, it does no good.
The morning moves on, a constant flow of people coming knocking to our door to follow the rituals of events such as this one. Maybe if enough people call we will reach a time where we can turn back the clock.
We carry on trying not to look at each other, we keep looking around at the slightest sound from her room. I wish she would make some noise and show herself. I really do.
The mortuary building at Youghal Hospital is a place people only go when someone they know is dead.
I hate it. It gives us a last look at someone who has only been with us for a short time before she has been taken away.
I want to take her out of the ugly timber box and carry her home to Piltown.
But I can't.
She died yesterday.
On her way home for lunch from school.
That piece by Gerry O'Mahony, written more than 4 decades after that tragic event is as vivid as if it just happened yesterday.

Have you ever wondered – what did our ancestors eat? And how did their diet change from the Bronze Age, through the medieval period and right up to Famine times?
Liam Downey is a former director of Teagasc and an Honorary Professor of Archaeology at University College Dublin. He's been looking back at the variety of food consumed by our ancient forebears, and he joined Myles to talk about it.Liam Downey is a former director of Teagasc and an Honorary Professor of Archaeology at University College Dublin. He's been looking back at the variety of food consumed by our ancient forebears, and he joined Myles to talk about it.
In his research, one thing Liam found is that despite all the cattle that existed in Ireland, right up until the end of the seventeenth century, the ordinary person didn't eat much beef.
The documentary sources are quite clear that the amount of beef the ordinary person ate was quite small. They didn't rear the male animals too much except for breeding, or to pull weights.
Beef was eaten by the elite. Ordinary people ate principally milk and dairy products. Milk, butter, cheese, curds and whey.
However, there is a contradiction between documentary and archaeological evidence – documentary sources say that ordinary people didn't eat much meat, but on the other hand a lot of cattle bones have been excavated.
We did eat lots of other types of meat such as pig meat.
Believe it or not, in the very old records of Ireland the eating of horse meat was banned, taboo, prohibited, if caught eating it you had to do penance for 3 and a half years.
Butter in bog. May be 2,500 years old.
Bog Butter
Butter appears to have been an important part of the Irish diet from prehistoric times.
Over the past 300 years or more, finds of butter have been recovered from bogs in Ireland.
In the Bronze Age, Ireland was densely populated, by the Iron Age it was much less so – perhaps because of a plague. It could be that The Druids made offerings to the Gods – it could be that they did this with butter. It was seen as a valuable product, they put it in containers. Some of these containers are almost identical to the McCarthy Hurling cup.
The bog digested the butter over the years, in exactly the same way as your stomach does. The enzyme Lipase digests the fat in your stomach – and that same enzyme is in the bog. If you leave the butter long enough in the bog, it is no longer butter. The bog converts the butter into a soap.
Cereal Products
Cereal food products, like bread and porridge, were also part of the diet.
This could cause problems – starch deposited on teeth caused serious rotting of teeth. Acids in cereals also removed Iron from your system, causing anaemia.
Nuts like hazelnuts were also grown, they were very nutritious, but would also drain Iron from the system like cereals.
Not only was Ireland teeming with cows, the rivers and lakes were teeming with fish. However, the ordinary people don't eat a lot of fish.
Certain fish like salmon was very prominent on the tables of the elite. The ordinary people ate herrings and shellfish.
The main fish that were available around the Irish coast were pilchards. They cured fish in "fish palaces" along the south west coast. They cured them with salt, washed them, put them into barrels.
The Potato
The potato played a very valuable role during the hungry months of spring. The potato never replaced butter, dairy products or cereal products in the Irish diet.
Ale and beer was brewed – they were much safer drinks than the often unhygienic water.
Ancient monastic sites had their own brewer.
100 years ago this month, Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae wrote his famous war poem In Flanders Fields. To mark this anniversary, we tell the story of In Flanders Fields, the poem that immortalised the poppy
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
The History Show is taking a break for the summer.
We'll be back in September for another season.

Munich - Germany
Munich is a place where great value is attached to representing traditional culture, and so classical music plays an important role. But the city's entertainment options don't stop there. The cultural revolution of the 1960s also made a great impact on the hustle and bustle of Munich's nightlife, as well as the famous political satire and the more traditional stages.
Bavaria's capital is the home to three important orchestras, lead by prominent conductors: The orchestra of the Bayerische Staatsoper (conductor: Zubin Mehta), the Münchner Philharmoniker (James Levine) located at the Gasteig cultural center, and the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks (Lorin Maazel). As well as staging ambitious concerts, the Nationaltheater with its cast of world class soloists, the Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz and the Prinzregententheater feature outstanding productions of opera, operetta, musical and ballet.
With a capacity of almost 14,000 the Olympia-Halle, along with the slightly smaller Rudi-Sedelmayer-Halle, hosts the big events in pop and rock. Other popular venues include the Colosseum situated at Kunstpark Ost. Friends of jazz shouldn't miss the Unterfahrt, Muffathalle and Wirtshaus zum Isartal jazz clubs.
Theater and Cabaret
There is a vast choice in theater: both sides of Maximilianstraße marking the battleground in the eternal competition for spectators and high quality productions between the Bayerisches Staatsschauspiel (its venues include the Residenztheater, the Cuvilliéstheater and the Marstall) and the Kammerspiele. Apart from that, there are more light-hearted theaters such as the Komödie im Bayerischen Hof, small stages like the Metropol-Theater and even smaller ones, such as the Theater am Sozialamt. Contemporary dance and experimental drama can be seen at the Neues Theater. A slightly crazy blend of opera, operetta, musical, ballet, drama and comedy is on offer at the Pasinger Fabrik.
Munich holds a unique position in the history of German political satire. This great tradition is still represented at the Lach- und Schießgesellschaft. The stars of political stand-up (the comedy scene's modern day equivalent to satirical revues) appear at the Lustspielhaus.
Visitors will find an abundance of cinemas spread over all parts of the city. Currently the most modern multiplex is Maxx at Isartor, the most impressive are Filmtheater Sendlinger Tor and Arri-Kino.
As a consequence of having been the royal residence of the art-loving Bavarian kings, Munich has inherited a rich legacy in the way of art. The Alte Pinakothek exhibits European paintings and sculpture dating from the 14th to 18th Centuries, while fine arts from the 18th and 19th Century are shown next door at the Neue Pinakothek. The Pinakothek der Moderne was inaugurated in 2002 after a lengthly seven year construction period. The massive museum is characterized by its concrete rectilinear facade, and features four collections in each of its corners: art, design, architecture, and works on paper. The Staatsgalerie is part of the Haus der Kunst whose constantly changing temporary exhibitions attract many visitors. The most famous of Munich's museums is the Deutsches Museum situated on an island in the river Isar. Visitors to the museum are taken on a vivid and spectacluar voyage through the history of human technology from its early beginnings into the future. The Museum Mensch und Natur at Nymphenburg Castle is also well worth the visit. The Bayerisches Nationalmuseum documents the culture, art and technology of Bavaria. The Münchner Stadtmuseum (Munich City Museum) lies at the cultural heart of Munich.
In the event that a day in Munich wasn't enough to wear you out completely, Munich also offers a wide range of nightclubs to spend the hours until breakfast. Nachtcafe is the classic late-night retreat, the piano bar at the Hotel Bayerischer Hof offers the most stylish way to spend the evening. Since the Swinging Sixties Schwabing has been Munich's entertainment center and still today small theaters, cabarets, cinemas, pubs and bars congregate in this area. In the streets around Münchner Freiheit the local youth mix with tourists from all over the world.

I bought one of these new earlier this year with the "Combi" deck and grass collector. It was supposed to be an upgrade from my old T1600 now 12 years old. It was sold to me as quite capable of not only producing a good finish on my lawn but also of cutting full height long orchard grass of which I have about 1 acre. (I checked this info directly with Westwoods who confirmed it by phone). This deck is really intended as a mulcher but even with the removable baffle plate taken out the blade… Read Full Review

I agree with your conclusion. I wish I had spent another £1000 and bought a Kubota. In the first year I had five faults on my T1800 that I bought three years ago. The build quality is very poor. I have not been impressed by the three dealers I have had contact with. Westwood have not been much help either. When it is working it will pick up wet grass well and of course leave nice stripes on your lawn.

"These Westwood T1800 mowers are only suitable for light domestic use"
<br/>Absolutely correct, and in no way should they be used for even light commercial use. So, I take it you are slating the reliability of this domestic quality piece of equipment due to you using it in another, more commercial capacity other than "light domestic use" otherwise that comment makes no sense?
Written on: 13/08/2009 by coldwaterjohn (1 review written)
Owned T1800 for 4 seasons from new. As in previously owned Countax, the hydrostatic transmission gearbox is beginning to fail, and is enormously expensive to replace - I was quoted £800, on a machine which cost £3,000 new. Beyond warranty period Westwood will not contribute - I suspect eventual gearbox failure is a common problem with these transmissions, so be warned before you buy one, not to expect miracles much beyond the warranty period.
Symptoms to look out for are much reduced speed, and… Read Full Review

The Westwood T1800 lawn mower is a very good bit of kit. As domestic sit down lawn mowers go you don't get better. It's able to deal with virtually anything and the brush system for grass collection is much better than the alternatives. Be careful with the paintwork when washing it down as the paint to the rear deflector panel flaked off when I jet washed (fairly gently) the grass off. It's also a bit loud so mowing at 7am on a Sunday morning is not a good idea… Read Full Review

Local Authors Present Seattle's Commercial Aviation 1908 - 1941
Local Authors Present Seattle's Commercial Aviation 1908 - 1941
Wednesday, December 2, 2009
Lecture and book signing at The Museum of Flight Dec. 26
SEATTLE, Dec. 2, 2009
--Seattle was a hub of aviation long before it became "JetCity." On Dec. 26 at 2 p.m., Seattle authors Ed Davies and Steve Ellis present a program based upon their new book, "Seattle Commercial Aviation 1908 - 1941." The program draws from hundreds of photographs gathered for the book, which illustrates Seattle aviation from the earliest dirigible flights to the arrival of commercial airmail and the airlines. The authors show how a few Seattle aviation pioneers contributed to many spin-offs in the industry. A question and answer session and book signing follows the program. The presentation is in the William M. Allen Theater and free with admission to the Museum.
Ed Davies has written hundreds of magazine articles and several books about aviation. Since moving to Seattle in the late 1990s he has specialized in the history of Boeing and airmail service. Steve Ellis is a Seattle native and former journalist. He has served as a volunteer at The Museum of Flight Library and Archive for the past seven years. Ellis grew up hearing his father's stories about the early days of commercial aviation in the Northwest. His father, Robert Ellis, began his long career in aviation as a mechanic and copilot in the late 1929s with early air carriers West Coast Air Transport, Pacific Air Transport and United Air Lines. He retired from UAL in 1973. A display about Robert Ellis is on view in the Museum's Early Northwest Aviation exhibit.
As part of the lecture, Davis and Ellis will show photographs depicting dirigible flights at Seattle's 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, the origins of Boeing Aircraft, and the pioneering efforts of Pacific Air Transport, United Airlines and Northwest Airlines. Their presentation will also look at Seattle's emergence as the aviation gateway to Alaska.

The Museum of Flight is located at 9404 E. Marginal Way S., Seattle, Exit 158 off Interstate 5 (on Boeing Field between downtown Seattle and SeaTac Airport.) The Museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $14 for adults, $13 for seniors 65 and older, $10 for active military, $7.50 for youth 5 to 17, and free for children under 5. Group rates are available. Admission on the first Thursday of the month is free from 5 to 9 p.m. courtesy of Wells Fargo. For general Museum information, please call 206-764-5720 or visit

Many people are surprised to find that they do not have celiac disease even though they had all the symptoms. In many cases, they have non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
The National Foundation for Celiac Awareness reports that approximately 18 million Americans have non-celiac gluten sensitivity, which presents similar symptoms but appears to be less severe than celiac disease.

We really enjoyed this tour with our guide Dylan. His information was very interesting as well as the guides we had at Laura's and Oak Alley Plantation. Small group size was fantastic(10).

Who's Online:
I have one thing to say to you..."Life Is A Highway". Man Rascal Flats is one of my favorite bands! I have a question, is this before or after the War of the Ring? all I want to know. I also have another question, would you like to do a challenge? If not I would understand
Nice job on the story so far, keep up the good work:)
(Dunedain Ranger of the North)
Author's Response: Yay, another Rascal Flatts fan!!!! You'd think that there would be more country fans in Southeastern North Carolina, but they are precious few at my school... I love "Life is a Highway", but my absolute favorite Rascal Flatts song and favorite song ever is "Where You Are". This story takes place after the War of the Ring. Frodo has been to Valinor but decided to return to Middle Earth. For this to make more since, read my first story, "Of Magic and Friendship"- it is the prequel to this story. This story begins exactly a week after that one finishes, so reading it would probably clear up a lot of your questions. I might be interested in doing a challenge, depending on what it is and how much time I have (very busy schedule!). Thanks for your comments and keeping R&Ring! -Traveller
Good! I like it, Kitt. I can't wait to read more! Thanks for doing my challenge!
Oh, hey, I also forgot to mention that I have seen a real live, wild, river otter! No lie! I was boating with my grandparents down a canal in Florida, and an otter jumped and dove back into the water, I wont lie and say it didn't surprise me, I screamed(Kinda wierd for a guy, but, hey, I was freaked out!), it then came back to the surface and swam with its head above the water! I really like it that you decided to use your favorite animal character in this story!
Thanks again for accepting my challenge!
P.S.: if it is easier, call me Dune
Author's Response: : Oh my gosh, Dune! I'm so jealous! All the times I ever went to a zoo, they either had no otters or the otter exhibit was closed. I live by a creek and my brothers were swearing they saw some sort of mammal in it. I was so excited... I went out every day looking for it... if it was an otter, I was just going to die. And then what? I finally caught a glimpse of it: brown, furry, but the tail... was a rat's. It was a water rat. MAJOR disappointment. Where I live all otters are supposedly wiped out since the 1800's. Hmm. Well, thanks so much for reading and coming up with the idea in the first place! : D
Ok, when you said Humorous, I thought a little, but wow! This is alot! Poor Sam, I hope he still comes after Frodo! Nice job and keep up the good work
Author's Response: I do feel sooo guilty about Sam. (Heehee; yes, he may just come after Sam. But thats supposed to be an unguessable secret). Wow, you still think its funny? *claps hands* Because I thought I was a little overblown. Ill keep going to the end. Its weird (for me), but I actually know how Im going to end this so filling in the blanks shouldnt be TOO tough. Thanks again for the idea! : )
Hey, I didn't know it was General Ulysses S Grants birthday! Oh yah, Kitt, when my dad was in the navy he was on a submarine, and-guess what-it was called the USS Grant! talk about coincidence! Keep up the good work on the story!
Author's Response: Awesome! He was on a submarine? My grandpa during WW2 was on the battleship Champaign, which isnt quite as cool a name as USS Grant... I've been inside submarines in museums and in Charleston, SC. Talk about claustrophobic! But those were older types; I guess the more modern subs aren't as crowded as the WW2 ones? -Kitt : )
So that is how you got your nickname! I was wondering about that! nice:)
Author's Response: Tee hee, thanks. I hoped *someone* would wonder why. I know Van (my brother) did. As a response to your author's response to my recent review, I need to do reach for the animal my character is turning into and what scene I want to poof them into. I want to make sure I get everything semi-right. Staying Book-verse is hard. And I know that Max was there all along, Sil just gets to be called Max again. So, YAY. Hey, I saw your Bio picture. Awesome! (I also remember this Fact from reading your bio) Fun Fact: Did you know that the answer Saving Private Ryan saved me in a Double Jeopardy in a Jeopardy game at school? None of the boys thought I knew the answer. Which, I totally proved them wrong. *Smirks*
Hey, Saving Private Ryan is one of my favorite movies, I just forgot to write it down! Yah that picture is the picture of the Rangers from the computer game Battle For Middle Earth II. It is my favorite computer game. I want to ask, um, what animal are you going to do? I just want to know, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to!
Author's Response: Oh yeah, I remember Battle for Middle-earth II. You just reminded me that I have yet to finish it. I got just past the Defending Dale part. Ugh, that level was hard. Im not used to playing with Dwarves I only play with Elves when it comes to those types of games. Right, I should play that again. Its one of my favorites too. Hmm getting a bit curious are we? Ill give you a hint. Thorondor *Grins evilly* Ill let that pester you.
Oh that sounds like a great idea, and I figured it out(Grins suspiciously) I won't say how I figured it would be an, Hurumeaglemmff!(clears throat) sorry had to cough! My name, Joshua, means God saves and its Elvish translation is, Eruedraith! Man why do elvish names have to be so long! Can't wait to read your story, I hope it is soon!
Namearie(I probably spelled that wrong)
Author's Response: Dont worry, I spell Namárië (Thats how you spell it) right but say it wrong. I say it like (Na-mar-eh) when its (Na-mar-ee-eh). Stupid Elvish is. Always get me. Actually, I pronounce nearly everything in Elvish wrong. Mostly names (so dont ask me to start calling you Eruedraith). Honestly, who pronounces Fëanor wrong? *Shakes head sadly* Thanks, I thought it was a good idea too! *Repress laugh, bites lip, and tries to look serious (unsuccessfully)* Coming down with a bit of a cold, Dune? I hope I didnt give mine to you. Okie, Ill try to type it out within the week. Im really gonna try to have it done by next weekend that is if School decides to be nice to me. I doubt it. I dont want to get your hopes up to high, it might ubersuck. But the idea is definitely creative, I can tell you that. I just cant write it out right. I hate that. Oh well. Ill try my best!
Nah, don't worry, Dune is fine! And hey, I can wait till you post the story so, don't worry if you can't put it up this week. (Smiles) and don't worry, I didn't catch the cold from you, I caught it from Shawn (feels tap on shoulder and turns head) um (swallows) did I say Shawn, I meant to say Alex. (feels someone staring at him and turns head) oh high Alex didn't see you there, um (Turns to face Fei) gotta run, speak with you soon!
Author's Response: Okay, good. I didnt want to keep typing it either. I dont even like typing my own penname! Whenever I say Dune, it reminds me of that Movie and those books I keep forgetting to put upstairs. Hmm that reminds me! Thanks, I didnt want to be rude or anything by saying that it might be a wait, I hate letting people down. Or saying No. Or keeping them waiting thats why I try to review as fast as possible; honestly, I feel terrible if I dont. This is going to be a stretch for me and I honestly dont think it will turn out to gut (hee hee, I love German). Im really sorry if it doesnt! But, its the thought that counts, right? (*Turns to Alex and Shawn who are still glaring at Dune* Hey, hey -- no picking on Dune today, thats my job!)
Yah only she can p-Hey wait a minute!(glares at Fei for a short time)Ha Ha, very funny(laughs for real) Ok, now where were we, oh yes! Yes it is really the thought that counts! I am still looking forward to reading it still!(Turns to Alex and Shawn) sorry guys had to blame some one, right? Ok, well I would like to let you know, Fei, that I have updated my Second Ranger story, I think you will like it!
I salute you, my lady
Author's Response: *Does Elf salute thingy*And I you milord. Ha Ha! I got you! *Innocently glares back* Okay good, I was beginning to worry. I mean, there will we some suspense, a cliffhanger ending, a Vala, and some animal chasings. So (Turns to Alex, who is holding a mini chalk board in his hand, Fei: I | Dune: 0 is written on it.) Aha! Im in the lead. But will I be leading for long ? Awesome! Ill read it as soon as I can. *Does Elf salute thingy again* Peace!
Thank you! Thank you! I am glad some one else is finally doing my challenge! I will keep reading this as soon as you write more!
Author's Response: The challenge instantly appealed to me and I think it's very interesting! I will update as soon as I can! Thank you for reviewing - meerkatalex
I am glad you find my challenge to your liking. I decided to do Gimli, because no one ever has Gimli find anyone, only Aragorn, Legolas, Boromir, and Glorfindel. Please read The Wolf's second chapter and see what you think! Thanks again!
P.S.: neat name! one of the character's in my other stories is named Alex as well, please read them and see what you think!
Author's Response: Yeah, I notice that a lot in fics. People write about the Three Hunters, but then they nudge Gimli to one side whilst they describe Aragorn's tracking skills and Legolas's brilliant site and his handsomeness, and then Gimli seems to be left out. That kinds of dissapoints me. Anyway, I'm glad you reviewed again, and I will look at the second chapter - I like the name Alex too. My pen-name gives that away. :-) Thanks again for reviewing! - meerkatalex
Whoowee! Now that is what I am talking about! A ring-tailed Lemur, very nice, Meerkat very nice!! Now can he talk, because I want to know is if that is why same ran away? Good job, just one suggestion, some people like me like to read longer chapters so, just thought I would let you know that. Keep up the good work! I will be waiting for more!
Author's Response: Heehee. I can imagine you reading the story and then saying that! lol! Alex will not be able to talk at the moment; he thinks to himself, but Sam was so surprised at seeing such an animal; that's why he ran away! I know about the shortness of chapters, thank you for pointing it out! I will try to update when I can, but if the chapters are longer then they'll take longer to write! However I will try and add chapters when I can, and make them longer! Thank you for your suggestion, for reading, and for reviewing! :-) meerkatalex
Fluffy! Hahahahahahahaha! His new name is Fluffy.
Harry Potter:
Hagard: Who told you about fluffy?
Ron: Fluffy?
Hermiony: That thing has a name?
You get the point! Going good, so keep it up. Oh and by the way, I updated the Minotaur.
Author's Response: I am now rolling around laughing like a lunatic. *Phew, calming down*. Thanks for the review, and I'll look at the story in a bit! - meerkatalex
Whoo-doggy! Now this is sounding like a good story! I thank you for doing my challenge! This is very interesting! I have also did my own Challenge, the story is called The Wolf, if you want to read it! keep up the good work on this story!
Ok, one question! Where is she? Lothlorien? I have atip for you, if you are going to mention a door closing, you might want to mention first that she is inside a room! (laughs) I was a little confused by this chapter! Its good that you are starting out with short chapters but some long ones would be nice! Not to long, just a little longer. Oh and one more question, is this Gandalf the Grey or White? Keep up the good work and thanks again for working on my challenge!
PS: Nice choice of dog, a husky looks almost like a wolf!
Good chapter, short but good! So, question, is he Gandalf the Grey or Gandalf the White? All I want to know! Oh, and thanks again for doing my challenge!
Ok, well, I guess the second chapter answered my question, about him being Gandalf the White! so I take it he is going to Fangorn to meet the Fellowship? I wonder what they will think of Ashanti?
P.S: Ashanti is a really beautiful name, how did you come up with it? Hope you update soon, can't wait to read next chapter!
Did Shadowfax just-that was a joke! He made a joke, hahahahahaha! Liked this chapter please continue!
Good start to a great tale! Wainrider? a suspicious name, is he good or evil? no one knows! (Laughs) I like your style! You've got me hooked! I wonder what the star on his hand means, hmm...!
PS: How is your other story coming along?
Author's Response: Other story meaning my animal transformation story? Yes, it's going fine. I may post a new chapter tonight, depends if I get round to it. The star on his hand will not be discussed until an inquisitive Pippin gets even more inquisitive than normal! :-) Glad you like it, keep tuned! meerkatalex

Go behind the scenes in the life of the well known rapper with the raspy sultry voice, Jay Wayne Jenkins, better known by his stage name Young Jeezy. Who is currently a member of the hip hop group United Streets Dopeboyz of America (USDA) and a former member of Black Mafia Family (BMF). He began his career in 2001 under an independent label and joined Boyz 'N Da Hood in 2005, the same year his solo major label debut Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101 was released. Its single "Soul Survivor", which featured Akon, became a top-ten hit in the US. Young Jeezy coined the phrase "trap or die", and was launched to stardom with his "Thug Motivation" series. When watching Young Jeezy's "HustlersAmbition" Documentary (42 minutes long), you will see all of the hard work and struggle that the Snowman had to live through and how he made it here today. Understand his involvement with the crack epidemic and his reactions to catching his own mother inside of a crack house. Also listen to his stories and strategies of how he built his business empire "Corporate Thug Entertainment" (CTE) from the ground up. Featured in the documentary are DJ Khaled, T.I, Jay-Z and Puff Daddy. Check out the incredible documentary and music video after the jump…
The documentary above is from the TM 103: Hustlerz Ambition (Explicit Deluxe Album). A little history of Jay Wayne Jenkins: He was born in Columbia, South Carolina and relocated to Atlanta, Georgia when he was a toddler. Because his parents were separated, custody of him transferred between family members frequently. At one point, he lived with his grandmother in Hawkinsville, Georgia. In an interview with XXL Magazine, he described his childhood as "empty". In 1994, he spent nine months in Youth Challenge Academy (YCA), a boot camp in Fort Stewart, Georgia, for narcotics possession. Jeezy released his first independent album, Thuggin' Under the Influence (T.U.I.), in 2001 under the name Lil J. It featured artists such as Freddy J.,Kinky B, Fidank, and Lil Jon, who also produced some of the tracks. In 2003, Jeezy independently released Come Shop wit Me, a two CD set featuring completely new tracks with some songs from T.U.I. Jeezy signed with Bad Boy Records in 2004 and joined the group Boyz n da Hood, whose self-titled album was released in June 2005 and peaked at #5 on the Billboard 200 albums charts.
Black Street Media presents some unreleased video: Young Jeezy is in a league of his own as there are few more arresting sounds in music than the 34-year-old rapper in full growl. His voice is something like a garbage disposal come to life. Scary, serrated, vicious. While his throat sounds full of gravel, the beats remain as big as boulders. It's an imposing formula and one that hasn't steered him wrong yet. As the title suggests, "TM 103″ is something of a thematic retreat, an album less of economic empathy and one of celebratory excess. On an album littered with guests, one of Jeezy's best attributes is made all the more clear. For a rapper, he's nearly peerless when it comes to delivering hooks, harsh croak and all. Every chorus sounds like a triumph and almost makes you want to chew on fiberglass and try to shout along.
Watch his newely released official music video performing "Nothing (Nothin')" released by The Island Def Jam Music Group up above. You can also download the entire Young Jeezy TM103: Hustlerz Ambition (Deluxe Edition) album. A diagnosis of Bell's palsy would ultimately shift the rapper's priorities for awhile, which delayed the release of the album until late December 2011. The saga continues on with Young Jeezy's "The Real Is Back" street DVD played in its entirety. The Snowman is throwing out the jams this year for sure! Let me know what you think below..

PIERRE, S.D. – (DRG News) The Pierre Rescue Squad was called out yesterday to assist the occupants of a boat that was stuck on a sandbar. Pierre Fire Department Deputy Chief Ian Paul says the squad responded to the call for assistance about 6:15 p.m. Tuesday. He says the watercraft was located near the exit of the main channel, near the Izaak Walton Club. Two crew members dressed in cold water suits were able to make their way out to the boat, fastened a rope to it and the rescue squad was able to pull the unit off the bar with its watercraft. There was no damage to the boat and no one was injured. The Rescue Squad was out on the call for about 45 minutes. Paul says the incident brings a reminder that boaters should be mindful of water levels. He says the nearby river is always changing and boaters that don't know the water should be cautious or ride the waters with others who are more familiar with local river features.

Trying to apply one simple solution to the masses, is great drug marketing, but very poor medicine. IMHOView Thread
'Statins have proven efficacy in preventing heart attacks and death,1 and they are the most widely prescribed drugs worldwide. Nevertheless, they remain underused, with only 50% of those who would benefit from being on a statin receiving one.2 ,3 In addition, at least 25% of adults who start taking statins stop taking them by 6 months, and up to 60% stop by 2 years.4 '
My basic question for iride is this, how does valid statistical analysis miss something this obvious?
View Thread
..............and this is what is says, and I am copying all of it's bullet point 'findings':
'Findings of the PRIMO study are representative of typical statin-induced symptoms that we see in our clinic.20
- Most patients did not identify a trigger, but the 40% who did had engaged in unusual physical exertion or had received a new drug in addition to the statin.
- Heaviness, stiffness, or cramps predominated in 70%, with only a quarter noting weakness and another quarter suffering myalgias during exercise. Pain was diffuse in 60% and more common in the lower extremities than the upper extremities.
- Physically active patients were more likely to suffer muscle symptoms than sedentary patients, echoing the observation by Sinzinger and O'Grady that athletes are especially intolerant of lipid-lowering therapy.41
- Patients who have had muscle complaints with other drug therapies such as bisphosphonates, 42 raloxifene (Evista),43 or diuretics may be having the same provocation of an underlying muscle predisposition by the statin.
- A personal or family history of muscle complaints predisposed patients to statin-induced myopathy.20
How did, or how can, valid statiscal data analysis miss side effects this obvious?View Thread
I will await your response..........perhaps it is you that should be apologizing for the original data.View Thread
'In addition, at least 25% of adults who start taking statins stop taking them by 6 months, and up to 60% stop by 2 years.4 '
Why was this not discovered in the original trials for these drugs? With a problem level of this size, why was not this discovered much earlier? The medical research work is out there now, and it still is not widely disseminated among family docs, and it still is not included in the standard of care. Why is this so?View Thread
'Perhaps there needs to be more responsibility on both sides. Both Patients and Doctors need to be more educated on the potential consequences of blocking the mevalonate pathway.'
I can see both Bobby and Iride are health care professionals, and while I do respect that fact, I respectfully disagree with the idea of making the patient responsible. I feel I have the capability to actually do that, if I have access to the facts, but sadly, 70-90% of patients do not have that capability and are solely only listening to their docs. The concept of making the patient responsible takes the doc off the hook, and I understand while that idea is one you are both comfortable with, but there is one BIG thing standing in the way, and that is the Standard of Care. Let me ask you some big questions. Are you going to give the patient a voice in setting the Standard of Care? Are you going to adjust the standard of care so that there is enough flexibility in those standards, that the patient actually has a voice in these decisions? If you don't, then the patient will never have a real voice in these decisions. Just a thought!View Thread
Perhaps an update might help with that thought. The muscle pain in my left quad is improving daily, and I can finally again lay on my left side at night while trying to sleep. Last dose of Pravastatin was 11/3/12, and today is 12/15/12. My shoulder is still sore, but it seems to me that the progression is in the same pathway as the onset, which might mean that the shoulder will be the last to wash out. There is no doubt in my mind that it was the Pravastatin at this point.

Known for pioneering flavors on the cusp of culinary trends, such as Buffalo Bleu, Honey Dijon and Spicy Thai, the brand is expanding its line of kettle-cooked potato chips to include two new creations: Maple Bacon and Sweet & Salty.
"Over the past 30 years, we've closely tracked trends from around the world, tested thousands of product prototypes and even conducted a national survey on Americans' taste preferences," says Carolyn Ottenheimer, Kettle Brand's Chief Flavor Architect of 13 years. "As with our first-of-its kind Salt & Fresh Ground Pepper in 1999 or Cheddar Beer, one of our first People's Choice chip selections in 2005, these two distinct new flavors embody the preferences of today's consumer and have the potential to become timeless classics."
Both new flavors have been in development for over nine months, and the final seasoning combinations were selected from hundreds of prototypes. Extensive testing – a hallmark of Kettle Brand's innovation process – ensures each new product has the perfect balance of flavors Kettle Brand fans expect and love.
Verified by the Non-GMO Project, both new flavors reflect the company's commitment to delivering bold, original chips made with all-natural ingredients, and like all Kettle Brand products, are cooked in pure, all-natural oils for a hearty crunch.
Kettle Brand Maple Bacon – Building on one of the most talked about recent food trends – bacon – this natural match combines the smokiness of bacon, the sweetness of real maple syrup and the spice of chili pepper for a truly iconic comfort food
Kettle Brand Sweet & Salty – These sweet and savory chips strike the perfect balance by pairing natural sea salt and cane sugar with golden, crunchy potatoes to create a sweetness capable of satisfying salty cravings and sweet tooths alike.
Kettle Brand Maple Bacon and Sweet & Salty chips will be available in grocery and natural food stores beginning this summer in 5-ounce bags for the SRP of $2.69 and 8.5-ounce bags for the SRP of $3.49.
