MWR has retained 5-Hour Energy for next season, despite the NAPA loss last week.
Michael Waltrip is breathing a sigh of relief today.
5-Hour Energy announced that despite the recent events at Richmond International Raceway, the company would remain with the team into the future, supporting Clint Bowyer and the 15 car.
This move comes in the wake of long time Michael Waltrip supporter NAPA who announced last week it would be leaving the organization at years end.
Speculation surrounding the other sponsors reactions to the actions taken by Michael Watrip Racing, who were penalized by NASCAR for their manipulation of the results of the Richmond event, which in turn changed the outcome of the drivers who made the Chase.
"This week the 5-hour ENERGY® team met after the New Hampshire race to discuss our future with Michael Waltrip Racing. While our original plan was to announce the status of our sponsorship at the end of the year, this timeframe left many concerned about their future. There are scores of passionate fans, numerous charitable organizations, and hundreds of hard-working MWR employees and their families who are directly impacted by 5-hour ENERGY's NASCAR sponsorship," the company said via Facebook.
"After several internal discussions and meetings with MWR, we are prepared to announce our decision ahead of schedule. 5-hour ENERGY® will be back as a sponsor of MWR and Clint Bowyer for 2014. We look forward to another great year of competitive racing. Go 15!"
No word on whether or not Aaron's will stay with the team, or if the NAPA move will effect Martin Truex Jr.'s tenure at MWR.

Kudzu bug spreads to Maryland, Virginia
COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) - Of pests and predators the Washington region has no shortage, and it appears that a new one has arrived on the scene: the kudzu bug.
University of Maryland researchers have found the new arrival this summer in five counties in the region, including Prince George's, Charles and Anne Arundel, the university said. The research team under entomology professor William Lamp has also detected it in Calvert and St. Mary's counties, the university said. It has also been reported in several Virginia counties, including Culpeper, Frederick and Warren.
So far it has not been blamed for any large-scale harm, but the Maryland agriculture department has begun to raise awareness of the alien crop-eating creature. It can reduce soybean yields, the department said, and can also be a household nuisance.
Hence it may come to be recognized along with the snakehead and the stinkbug as another unwelcome invader from abroad to establish a foothold in the region and beyond.
"We want farmers to be aware that the kudzu bug is here and that it is another insect they may have to manage as the season progresses and in the years ahead," Deputy Agriculture Mary Ellen Setting said in a prepared statement. In this country, authorities said, the Asia native was first found in Georgia in 2009 and has since spread to several other Southeastern states.
So far, the university group that has been tracking the pest has not found huge populations, according to Alan Leslie, a graduate student in the group. But, he said in a statement, "that might be due to the fact that it's just new here."
He added, however, that "the potential is there" for the kudzu bug to be an economic pest. And, he said, "now that we know for sure it's here," further study is warranted to determine how much impact it will have.
The name given to the olive-brown bug, which even at full size is less than one-fourth inch in length, comes from the kudzu vine, on which it typically feeds. Its spread has been facilitated by the ample kudzu supply in the Southeast.
But not content to confine its haunts to the vines, it may migrate to soybeans and other types of available beans, the agriculture department said.
So far, all of the kudzu bugs found in Maryland have been collected from the vines, not the beans, but "they may be heading that way," the department said.
In addition, the university noted, much like the notorious brown marmorated stink bug, the kudzu bug can be an annoying household pest. Crushed, it can stain surfaces, irritate skin and "emit an unpleasant odor," the university said.

Nostalgia may be more useful than anyone suspected.
Imagine that you could rewind the clock 20 years. It's 1989. Madonna is topping the pop charts, and TV sets are tuned to "Cheers" and "Murphy Brown." Widespread Internet use is just a pipe dream, and Sugar Ray Leonard and Joe Montana are on recent covers of Sports Illustrated.
But most important, you're 20 years younger. How do you feel? Well, if you're at all like the subjects in a provocative experiment by Harvard psychologist Ellen Langer, you actually feel as if your body clock has been turned back two decades. Langer did a study like this with a group of elderly men some years ago, retrofitting an isolated old New England hotel so that every visible sign said it was 20 years earlier. The men—in their late 70s and early 80s—were told not to reminisce about the past, but to actually act as if they had traveled back in time. The idea was to see if changing the men's mindset about their own age might lead to actual changes in health and fitness.
Langer's findings were stunning: After just one week, the men in the experimental group (compared with controls of the same age) had more joint flexibility, increased dexterity and less arthritis in their hands. Their mental acuity had risen measurably, and they had improved gait and posture. Outsiders who were shown the men's photographs judged them to be significantly younger than the controls. In other words, the aging process had in some measure been reversed.

I checked this site and determined all of the possible causes. I watched the video when available. I checked prices on a replacement set ($2300.00) if I got what I really wanted but decided to tackle the repairs myself and save $2100.00. My only mistake was becoming distracted when testing the timer resistor before placing my order and not knowing where to connect the replacement. I ended up paying for assistance online ($24.00). It was much cheaper then replacing my washer and dryer or even calling a service person out for help. I applaud the services offered at this site and would recommend it to friends and family.
Remove back plate covering the control module, exposing screws. loosen screws removing control assembly. Without disconnecting anything, move assembly out of the way, exposing the door switch below. Loosen screws at each side of the front panel to allow access to door switch. Disconnect switch and replace.
This is a very easy, no frills dryer to work on. Access to the blower by removing two screws holding the front panel. Blower fan held in place with a snap ring. Just recently replaced the drum rollers and shafts and the belt as well. It ran sweet for about a week and then an electric control on the motor went bad and it on;y can be replaced by buyig a new motor at $135.00. Some luck huh? Found a guy local selling a 8th month old Maytag of higher capacity and more bells and whistles for $150.00. It works great and my old Admiral uses many of the same parts so I'll have a supply of thermostats, rollers, etc., when the Maytag goes on the blink.

"Our hands will not carry guns anymore…..."
Forty Maoist ex-combatants cheered with joy as they received certificates for successfully completing Community Medical Assistant and Lab Assistant courses from Rapti Technical School.
- By June 2012, UNIRP has provided 2,149 VMLRs with support for rehabilitation.
- Approximately 60 percent of the graduates have been offered work or are running their own business with the support of UNIRP.
"Our hands that used to carry guns and other weapons now will serve the needy people for medical aids," said Premabati Gopali as they are gracefully entering into civilian lives.
The health course was a rehabilitation option offered by the UN Interagency Rehabilitation Programme (UNIRP) to the Verified Minors and Late Recruits (VMLRs)who were discharged from the cantonment in early 2010.
The graduates expressed their willingness to serve the rural communities of Nepal where medical facilities are lacking with doctors and health attendants not readily available. "We never expected these students to change like this", said Yadav Subedi, the Principal of the Rapti Technical School. He further added, "They were very aggressive in the beginning and we doubted our decision to accept them but after the rigorous community work, and the monitoring and counseling provided by UNIRP, they have completely changed."
By January this year, 2149 VMLRs enrolled in other vocational trainings and education options, out of which 1105 have already graduated. Out of them 58% have been offered jobs or have successfully established their own small businesses.

Young Mr. Obama: Chicago and the Making of a Black President (Hardcover)
Chicago and the Making of a Black President
Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, 9781608190607, 288pp.
Publication Date: October 12, 2010
Barack Obama's inspirational politics and personal mythology have overshadowed his fascinating history. Young Mr. Obama gives us the missing chapter: the portrait of the politician as a young leader, often too ambitious for his own good, but still equipped with a rare ability to inspire change. The route to the White House began on the streets of Chicago's South Side.
Edward McClelland, a veteran Chicago journalist, tells the real story of the first black president's political education in the capital of the African American political community. Obama's touch wasn't always golden, and the unflappable and charismatic campaigner we know today nearly derailed his political career with a disastrous run for Congress in 2000.
Obama learned from his mistakes, and rebuilt his public persona. Young Mr. Obama is a masterpiece of political reporting, peeling away the audacity, the T-shirts, and the inspiring speeches to craft acompelling and surpassingly readable account of how local politics shaped a national leader.
About the Author
Praise For Young Mr. Obama: Chicago and the Making of a Black President…
"With Young Mr. Obama, Edward McClelland finishes what The Bridge started, showing how Obama navigated Chicago political life, which can be as rough as a Blackhawks game … McClelland's book is long on reporting and narrative, and short on meditation and analysis – for which readers can be thankful…. For the many Americans who remain fascinated with the American president, Young Mr. Obama makes for insightful, enlightening reading, a worthy supplement to Remnick's book and a valuable contribution to the record on the 44th president."—Christian Science Monitor
"So the question was whether is this just another Obama book. The answer is no. The great strength of the book lies in it coverage of the early years…. delving into all this breaks new biographical ground and will function as a solid foundation for future books on the subject. The book is a must-read for all Obama political junkies who want to know more for it does significantly advance the historical record regarding his younger years."—New York Journal of Books
"McClelland does a great job illustrating how the gerrymandering of Chicago's First Congressional District and the emergence of early 20th century black leaders such as Oscar DePriest and William Dawson established strong foundations for black leadership to emerge in Chicago and across Illinois, well before it became accepted elsewhere."— GapersBlock.com
"McClelland explores how Chicago's long-established African American political power bases helped nurture Obama's career."—San Francisco Chronicle
"Where did Barack Obama come from? No answer to that question can be complete without the stories that unfold in this book. Many of them date from the time when Edward McClelland was just about the only reporter covering the young and unknown Obama. Understanding how this extraordinary leader rose from Chicago politics to the pinnacle of world power is not possible without the insights in Young Mr.Obama."—Stephen Kinzer, author of Overthrow: America's Century of Regime Change from Hawaii to Iraq
"Edward McClelland's Young Mr. Obama argues convincingly that our first black president couldn't have come from any place other than Chicago. If you want to understand the 'Chicago-style' politics that shaped our president--the real thing, not the right-wing cartoon--you have to read Young Mr. Obama."—Joan Walsh, editor in chief of Salon.com
"[McClelland] makes a convincing case that President Obama's experiences in his adopted city shaped him profoundly and helped make him the seasoned and formidable politician he is today. An engaging overview of the president's early political education." —Kirkus Reviews
"As Barack Obama's presidency is beset by falling ratings, a weak economy, and an antideficit mood, McClelland's examination of Obama's ascendency should encourage supporters and instill caution in opponents." —Publishers Weekly
"Richly details Obama's background in Chicago and how it impressed those who would eventually help his presidential campaign like senior advisor David Axelrod." —Paul Bedard, U.S. News & World Report's Washington Whispers blog
"A fine survey of how local Chicago politics shaped Obama."—Midwest Book Review
"A great read."—AND Magazine

The Los Angeles board of airport commissioners, the agency that oversees several airports in the metropolitan area, announced last month it was suing charter operator Pacific Jet. The suit involves what the board called Pacific Jet's "repeated noise violations" at Van Nuys Airport (VNY). The action comes as part of the city's enforcement of the so-called Stage 2 non-addition rule, an amendment to 1981 city legislation called the Noise Abatement and Curfew Ordinance. Under the controversial non-addition portion of the ordinance, upheld in August 2001, Stage 2 jets had to meet certain residency requirements to be grandfathered into exemption from the ban. Further, transient Stage 2 aircraft are limited to a maximum of 30 calendar days per year that a non-based jet can use VNY. According to an airport spokesman, several of Pacific Jet's aircraft, mostly Gulfstreams, did not meet the grandfather requirements and the company was issued multiple noise violations. They included curfew and maintenance-runup infractions, as well as excesses in regular takeoffs and landings. The airport spokesman described Pacific Jet as a "subtenant" of another airport tenant at VNY. A spokeswoman for Pacific Jet said at press time that the company had been instructed not to comment by its attorneys.

LG Electronics has unveiled a new all-in-one 21.5 inch desktop with the Chrome OS and will be launching it at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2014) event in January next year. The LG Chromebase Model number 22CV241, runs the simple and fast Chrome operating system and comes with a 21.5-inch widescreen Full HD IPS display and 178-degree viewing angle. Thanks to Google's Chrome OS, all of its products such as Gmail, Drive, Search, Maps, YouTube, Play or Google+ Hangouts come to the comfort of this desktop. Powered by the fourth-generation Intel Celeron processor enables the LG Chromebase features a 1.3 megapixel webcam that does 720 pixel HD Recording and a microphone for easy video calling. What's more, this AIO computer delivers clear and powerful sound and music through a pair of built-in 5W speakers.
Under the hood, the Chromebase desktop specs speak of 2GB of RAM and 16GB SSD. There's also an HDMI port, three USB 2 slots, a single USB 3 port and an Ethernet port. There are additional accessories available, such as a keyboard, mouse and a cable tidy. "Simple to operate for all types of users, the award-winning LG Chromebase computer represents the successful combination of simplicity, power and great design," said Hyoungsei Park, head of the IT Business Division at LG Electronics. "LG Chromebase is the wave of the future for desktops, expected to be widely adopted not only at home, but especially in schools, hotels, call centers and other business settings."
"LG's Chromebase is an exciting new form factor that expands the options available to customers who want a fast, simple and secure computing experience for the home, school or office," said Caesar Sengupta, vice president of product management, Google. "LG Electronics makes great devices that customers love, and we're glad to welcome them to the Chrome family." Visitors to LG's booth at CES 2014 (Las Vegas Convention Center, Central Hall - 8024) will have the opportunity to see this unique product for themselves between 7-10 January.
As you can see from the images above, look-wise LG Chromebase is very similar to Apple's iMac. But unlike an iMac or a Macbook, LG Chromebase is not well suited for a heavy user. It can be used by anyone who wants to use the power of the Internet - say at Hotel's reception or School's for basic operations. What do you think about the LG Chromebase features?

To the students at the Denver Campus of the Lincoln Charter School, helping those in need just seems to be second nature.
"Last year we had a toy drive for kids at hospitals who couldn't be home for Christmas,†said eighth-grader Chelsea Tierney, a member of the school's student government. "This year, we wanted to do something different.â€
Tierney came up with that something different one day as she listened to the radio.
It was then that she heard of a coat drive being held by the Crisis Assistance Ministry, a non-profit group in Charlotte that provides assistance to people in financial crisis, during the month of February.
Tierney then approached the other members of the Charter School's student government and its advisor, Stacey Kropff, about the group heading up a school-wide coat drive for the Crisis Assistance Ministry.
"I thought it was a great idea,†Kropff said, "And the kids seemed really excited to do it.â€
That excitement seemed to spread through the community as bags of coats began to pour into the school.
Before it was all over, the school had collected 188 coats for needy children, adults, and even one for a baby.
"A lot of people thanked us for helping them clean out their closets,†Kropff said of the community involvement. "We got a lot more coats than I expected.â€
The school also helped push the drive, allowing the students to advertise the drive on the sign in front of the school and helping spread the word.
"The school really promotes our drives,†Kropff said. "The PTO, or Parent Teacher Organization, sees the drives as a way to plant the seeds of giving in the students.â€
That seed seems to be growing well, as can be seen through the words of the students.
"It feels good to know that a child has something warm to wear,†Tierney said of the need being met through the drive.
Tierney's fellow students agreed.
"It's nice to know that a little kid will be able to go out in the snow with a warm jacket on and not just a lot of layers of clothes,†said Shauna Vintin, fellow eighth grader and another member of the student government.
The student government viewed the drive as so much of a success, that the students are already looking at the possibility of holding the drive again next year.
"Maybe we can do it again next year,†Tierney said, "And maybe even include a contest within the school.â€

Will this go away? So I assume it is a suture as its like a white wire looking string. I'm afraid to pull it. Also I had a capsuloraphy with implant replacement to gel. 4 days after surgery both breasts look like the implant is poking out a little at the fold. I thought it would go away but 4 weeks later both are the same giving them a weird angled look. I know I did not do this by ripping any stitches as I was in bed for several days in sport bra. Is it Permanent and should I cut the string or talk to the doctor?
I have a string coming out of my incision after 4 weeks. Is it a suture? Also another issue with weirs shape. (photo)

Sometimes the capsule is opened inferiorly (at the crease area) and the implant bulges out, if it has no other place to go. Ask you plastic surgeon about this issue.

Get thee to thy surgeon
You should see your surgeon for your concerns regarding your shape and your spitting stitch. You do not want the stitch to cause infection or inflammation, especially when there is an implant near by.

Concerns with your result
It sounds like you have undergone a revision procedure. Please see your plastic surgeon to have your suture removed. He/she can best address your concerns regarding your breast shape. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Early appearance at 4 weeks should improve with time, but your suture should be removed.
You should get back to your plastic surgeon to have the exposed suture removed. It can be a source of a late infection if you ignore it. If you cut it out yourself, you may accidentally infect your breast.
The shape of post-operative breast tends to improve with time. Your plastic surgeon should see you again to evaluate his result and to follow your recovery.
Best Regards,
The suture should be removed. It's best to get your surgeon to do this for you. The shape of your breasts may improve with time. When a capsulorraphy is done, some surgeons overcorrect as there is some loosening with time. This could be responsible for the abnormal shape.
Please follow up with your surgeon who can best address these concerns.
Suture Showing After Breast Surgery?
Best to have your plastic surgeon removed the sutures for you. He/she will be able to address your questions/concerns regarding the breasts' shape as well.

Customer Reviews (29)
- alpha to omegaReview by Wolf
- Other than the high quality and thoughtful simplicity of my recent Aerostich Courier bag (with stabilizer strap), it has also become my off-moto gear for all seasons. Perfect for air travel, tourism, road-trips, concerts, biz and all things done off my bike, it has become one of my most valued tools. All the compliments and questions from non-riders, struck by the bag's austere good looks and design, affirm that form following function can be style indeed. (Posted on 9/15/12)
- Great bagReview by BeachMoto
- As with all 'Stich products, there are no disappointments here. Great bag. It replaced my backpack/computer case that was falling apart. I use this bag everyday (even on days that I have to wear a suit and a tie). I ended up using a small padded case with my laptop so not to damage it if I bang the bag somewhere. Thanks for a great product. (Posted on 6/1/12)
- bagReview by frank
- Exactly what I needed as a carry on for a trip to Denver. Worked great (Posted on 6/1/12)
- Great bagReview by Lincoln
- I needed something to carry street shoes and small items in the rain, and I had trouble finding the right size bag. I finally stumbled on this one, made with the same attention to detail, design, and craftsmanship as my Falstaff jacket. The materials are top-notch, and the whole thing works perfectly. Highly recommended. (Posted on 2/18/12)
- another bagReview by yeloboomer
OK.. this is the 4th bag we've bought ( I think... might be more ), Dispatch, Courier.... we got'em all. One of the Dispatch bags I've had for years, just went back to have a little repair work on it. Aerostich called me since the repair would be half the price of a new bag. Well... gee, thanks... nice to know, but no way I'm giving up my old bag, fix it please!
The latest purchase was a pink one for Wifey. Now she won't 'borrow' mine and I won't be borrowing her pink one. (Posted on 2/6/12)
- How did I live without itReview by Bayou Crier
I've looked at these for years and finally took the plunge and purchased one.
This is more handy than a pocket on a shirt............yeah I use it in the car too. (Posted on 12/13/11)
- Great for commutingReview by MotoGirl
- I just started using this bag to commute to work and just around town (NYC). It is lightweight, but really holds alot. I purchased the organizer with it, which I recommend as it prevents the smaller items from getting lost in the bottom of the bag. The dispatch bag is great for commuting and is able to hold gym clothes as well as work files, etc. It stays in place when riding and has a very comfortable shoulder pad. I barely felt it. The quality is really excellent and I love that it is made in the USA. (Posted on 10/22/11)
- Getting the girl ready to rideReview by Canyon Lake
- My wife has the Courier bag in pink and now our 7yo has one herself. It works great when I take her to school on the bike and when she rides the bus. (Posted on 10/10/11)
- Tough X10Review by GottaRideMN
I buy a lot of different things from 'Stich so a few years back when The Boy was once again in need of a bag for school I finally decided to get him a Dispatch bag. See, until then, he always used backpacks those one shoulder things like most of the kids. Problem was; none held up. Last time we even bought a real high end pack but it was falling apart within 5 months. Most were lucky to make it through a quarter. The cause was that the Boy never used his locker and carried all his books and supplies everywhere every day. They all fell apart. The zippers would fail, the books wear through the sides, seams burst and buckles snapped. Yes, he is a one man torture test.
I figured the 'Stich bag would hold up better. Well, it is MUCH better. So far infinitely better. He used it for two years and, other than looking dirty, it is in the same shape as when we bought it. The Boy decided that for his senior year he wanted a new bag. So I bought him a new dispatch that, luckily, came in his school colors (Red and Black). I now use the old one for my school/lunch/everything bag and ride motorcycle every day. Much more comfortable to ride with than a backpack and easier to get on and off; doubly so when wearing an armored jacket. Plus it keeps everything dry.
Made in the USA, much more bang for the buck and looks like it might last forever. Seriously, I'm POed at myself for not getting one sooner. I have other relatives going to school or ride motorcycles; I may have found the perfect gift for them.

- Carry With ComfortReview by Dave
- I bought this bag to haul my dress shoes and laptop to work but soon found many other uses. When I first got it I thought it looked way too big. Wrong! It holds lots of heavy stuff but, because it rests on the passenger seat, there is no weight on my back. It stays put at speed and doesn't shift around during "spirited" riding. The adjustable strap allows me to adjust it so it is just right for my froward lean whether going freeway fast or sitting more upright in town. It is almost always with me whenever I ride. The quality is typical Aerostich - excellent. And it is made in the USA. I really like that too. (Posted on 6/20/11)

Olivier Award-winning actress Michelle Terry will appear in Matthew Dunster's forthcoming production Before The Party at the Almeida theatre, the first production of Somerset Maugham's work in more than 25 years.
A drama about social success and a community attempting to return to normal after the Second World War, joining Terry to complete the family at the centre of the story are Stella Gonet, Katherine Parkinson, June Watson, Michael Thomas and Alex Price.
Terry, who won her Olivier Award for her role in the Royal Court theatre's Tribes, can currently be seen back at the Sloane Square venue starring in Martin Crimp's surreal In The Republic Of Happiness. A well-known face on both stage and screen, Terry has starred at the National Theatre in productions of A Comedy Of Errors, All's Well That Ends Well and London Assurance, as well as Love's Labour Lost at Shakespeare's Globe and the Donmar Warehouse's The Man Who Had All The Luck, and boasts TV credits including The Cafe, Reunited, Law And Order and Extras.
While Gonet is a stage veteran, Before The Party marks her Almeida theatre debut. Last seen on stage in Top Girls at the Trafalgar Studios, the actress's extensive credits include Women, Power And Politics at the Tricycle Theatre, Racing Demon and Hamlet for the National Theatre, and Three Sisters and The Revenger's Tragedy for the Royal Shakespeare Company. On screen she is probably best known for fashion house drama House Of Elliott.
Parkinson is also a familiar face on screen, arguably best known for her long-running role in cult series The IT Crowd, alongside other comedies including The Bleak Old Shop Of Stuff, Psychoville and films The Boat That Rocked and How To Lose Friends And Alienate People. Her stage career has seen her star in Season's Greetings at the National Theatre, The School For Scandal at the Barbican and in the Olivier Award-winning Cock at the Royal Court theatre.
Currently appearing in Uncle Vanya at the Vaudeville theatre, Watson is a National Theatre regular having appeared in productions including The Good Hope, Cardiff East and Billy Liar.
Thomas, who returns to the Almeida theatre following appearances in Waste and Festen, is also a South Bank regular, having appeared in All's Well That Ends Well, St Joan and Pillars Of The Community for the National Theatre.
Price has was last seen on the London stage in Electra at the Gate theatre and boasts many screen credits including Doctor Who, Merlin and Being Human.
Young actresses Polly Dartford, Anna Devlin and Emily Lane will complete the cast, alternating the role of the family's youngest member Susan.
Dunster's production plays from 21 March (press night 28 March) until 11 May and follows The Turn Of The Screw, which will open the acclaimed Islington venue's 2013 season later this month.

Good Smile Company's first lottery set leaked a few days of the official site.
It was just a few days ago that we reported that Good Smile Company would be getting into the lottery figure game with their own Good Smile Kuji line. With a few days until the site officially launches on November 22, it looks like what news will be coming from the site has already been leaked.
Posted on Baidu Tieba, photos of the first Good Smile Kuji lottery prize figures will focus on Vocaloid and especially Hatsune Miku. What a shock! To add a little something different than rehashing the same Vocaloid characters, the Good Smile Kuji Hatsune Miku 2012 Winter Ver. set of Vocaloid characters will have a holiday theme. There will be a total of seven different prize sets with the A prize being Nendoroid Jumbo Hatsune Miku. Not exactly festive, but the B prize fixes that with the Nendoroid Hatsune Miku Santa Ver. The C prizes feature the Kagamine twins with Miku dressed in the Append outfits as a complete set. The D prize is a Hachune Miku cushion. Not exactly something I want to wake up to. The E prize is an assortment of clear files and a calendar set. For the F prize sees all the Vocaloid characters as various cute keychains. Finally, the G prize is a special set of Graphig figures of the twins, Miku, and Meiko. There's even more on top of that but it is no surprise that Good Smile is going all out especially with the Vocaloid series.
It'll just be a few days until we get the official word from Good Smile, but who here is groaning even more now that the first set has been leaked?

Department of Ecology News Release - February 26, 2014
BELLEVUE – The ongoing Washington Department of Ecology cleanup of arsenic-contaminated soil in yards, parks and other areas will move forward on several fronts in 2014.
Contamination from arsenic, lead and other metals was detected at the former Everett Smelter property in 1990. Studies also showed that arsenic and lead from smokestack emissions settled onto the ground in northeastern Everett. The fallout impacted about 500 private residences, three city parks, and commercial and industrial areas.
Ecology staff will talk with residents and answer questions about this year's plans during a community meeting on March 11. The meeting is scheduled from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Snohomish County Public Utility District Building, 2320 California St.
Residential yard cleanups continue
This spring, Ecology contractors will wrap up yard cleanups at 21 properties east and west of Marine View Drive near Eighth and Ninth streets, plus one property on Legion Way. Crews have been removing contaminated soil and are restoring landscaping.
Cleanup will continue this summer at a new group of 20 properties on Sixth, Seventh and Eighth streets between Winton and Wayne avenues. Also during this year, Ecology plans to sample and analyze soil samples from about 100 residential yards. Ecology contacted homeowners and residents in January about the sampling.
Soil cleanup slated for American Legion Memorial Park and Arboretum
Ecology is also working with the city of Everett to clean up soil at American Legion Memorial Park and Arboretum beginning in November this year. (Work will continue through spring 2015.) Soil samples collected in 2012 showed no immediate health threat to park users, but soil in some locations contained arsenic concentrations above state cleanup levels. Two additional city-owned parks, Wiggums Hollow and Viola Oursler Overlook, will be cleaned up in 2015-16. Ecology will also complete sampling in the overlook area at American Legion Memorial Park this spring.
Everett owns American Legion Memorial and Viola Oursler parks. The city also owns Wiggums Hollow Park, except for the grass ballfield south of the playground, which is Everett Housing Authority property. The city maintains the ballfield.
$34 million for cleanup work
Funding for the residential cleanup work comes from a $34 million share of the state's $188 million bankruptcy settlement in 2009 with Asarco Inc., the last owner of the Everett Smelter. Testing and cleanup work is free to property owners. Participation is voluntary.
The 2013 state Legislature set aside $4.75 million in Ecology's capital budget for the park cleanups.
A general cleanup action plan for residential and commercial areas was first developed and finalized in 1999 by Ecology and community members. Several years ago, the city independently began contamination cleanup at American Legion Memorial Golf Course.
Ecology, the EHA and the city worked together to clean up about 100 properties on the most contaminated parts of the site between 1999 and 2007.
Soil safety information is available
Park users and people who live in the overall cleanup area should follow the soil safety guidelines recommended by Ecology and the Washington State Department of Health to protect themselves and their families from exposure. The primary route of exposure is through swallowing soil. Arsenic is not readily absorbed through the skin. Guidelines include common hygiene practices of washing hands after playing at the park and before eating, leaving shoes at the door, and keeping homes swept and dusted.
People can also call the local information line at 425-530-5169 to speak to an Ecology staff member.

The Edgar Awards are set for May 1 in New York City.
The awards are preceded on April 29 and 30 with the popular Edgar Symposium.
So how does this involve Michael Connelly, except that he's deservedly won the Edgarseveral times?
Connelly is the editor of the new short story compilation The Blue Religion set to come out in time for the Edgars.
The Blue Religion is presented by the Mystery Writers of America, the same group that does the Edgars.
MWA tries to have a short story anthology come out each year to coincide with the Edgars.
I haven't reviewed The Blue Religion yet, but I plan to. Probably on this very blog.
The Blue Religion is comprised of new stories about "cops, criminals and the chase," according to Connelly's Web site.
It includes 19 original stories by such heavy hitters as T. Jefferson Parker, John Harvey, James O. Born, Paula Woods, Leslie Glass, Persia Walker, the late Edward D. Hoch, Laurie R. King, Peter Robinson, Greg Rucka, Paul Guyot, Alafair Burke, and, yes, Michael Connelly.
Connelly's short story contribution features Harry Bosch and is called "Father's Day."
I wish I could attend the Edgars this year; it truly is a fun night. For those of us who can't attend, The Blue Religion will suffice.
