Is it a Cold or the Flu?
What's the same
Both colds and the flu come from respiratory tract infections in your nose, sinuses and throat.
How to Soothe Yourself
Both colds and the flu need lots of rest, fluids and time to run their course but there are some extra things you can do.
Bye, bye dry
Use a humidifier to keep the air moist and ease throat and nose discomfort.
A soothing sip
Warm liquids like tea and chicken soup can help a sore, scratchy throat.
Keep it clean
Wash your hands to avoid spreading infection.
Take care of your symptoms
Take an over-the-counter medicine such as TYLENOL® Cold & Flu Severe or TYLENOL® Cold Multi-Symptom Nighttime for temporary relief.

Laura's Corner
I work very hard and am attending college to obtain my degree in the Human Service field. Writing makes me feel alive and gives me the opportunity to touch those whom I would not be able to otherwise. Last but not least, I have been blessed with two amazing daughters who love me completely and support my dreams. Feel free to contact me with questions, concerns or feedback.
On the rocks..
It had been upwards of 25 years. Distant, happy, carefree memories float through my mind. One day, this past weekend, it hit. Why not, I thought? What's holding me back? Will I survive? Should I prepare my will, up my life insurance? To heck with it, I'm going for it. And I did.
Don't get me wrong, the entire drive to the main event was nerve wracking. Silly, but true. I reconsidered more than twice. I continued my drive and pulled into the parking lot. I parked the car and proceeded into the building. I paid and walked up to the window. "Give me a size 11", I stated. I did my very best to maintain my composure. Strong, yet shaking like a leaf on the inside. Breathe and relax, if she can do it, so can I.

Mon. - Fri. 9am - 5pm;Sat. - Sun. CLOSED
not impressed – This Doctor's office isn't worth the bother find another doctor's office unless u want rude people who Don't care about yr request's or concern's ..
They Won't or Can't answer any question's they just don't have the time or cares..
I have left the office now and asked for my record's which COST me just under 60.00 and was suppose to be sent to me 3 week's ago and i still don't have them and when i call i get the run around NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL
retrain yr staff and keep them up todate on handling people CUSTOMER SERVICE...
Worst place ever – This doctor's office IS the worst place in anywhere, I am a military wife and I have been too many physician offices, this place tops my list of WORST Physicians ever.
1st. Dr. Roman is a joke...talk about being unprofessional this guy farts in the hallway right in front of his staff and patients. He treats his patients like they are underneath him belittling you , talking down to you...especially if your black.
2nd they don't care about the patient- just the money he can collect off you and off your insurance company. Every single office visit requires lab work, lab work and lab work, doesn't matter is you got seen the week before he will run a CBC on you. The medical assistance or CNA whoever they are that do the vitals are more professional and dedicated then the actual physicians...always being the back breaking jobs of running from building to building with blood, stool and pee samples....just sit in the parking lot and watch you will see the same MA run across two to three times in an hour...its kind of funny. Imagine how many unnecessary labs they do in a day...all to get more money.
3rd. He believes he knows it all, he will refer you to someone in his own office for a referral and "consult" although they are not specialist in the area they need to be this is just a cover to get a higher fee for services. And if you don't see his so called specialist he will say that he will not been seen there anymore....Honey fine with me many other more professional doctors to choose from.
4th his wife is totally unprofessional and annoying, she does not have one clue about proper Evaluation and Management coding and yet she is handling all the office visit billing. I was billed as a "new consult" on two occasion. yes I have been to their practice throughout the last year.

REDLANDS - A chance encounter at a Catholic parish led to a life-changing journey for Redlands filmmaker Cynthia Capen.
It was May 2005 when Capen, whose parents were terminally ill, ventured to Holy Name of Jesus Church (now known as Sacred Heart) in need of some inspiration and comfort.
There she met the Rev. Tony Ricard, a priest visiting from New Orleans.
Three months later, Capen flew to New Orleans intending to put together a documentary on Father Tony, known for gripping sermons and his relentless work with young people in the crime riddled 8th District of New Orleans.
The trip, however, coincided with the fury of hurricane Katrina and the documentary transformed into a story of the aftermath of that disaster in addition to Ricard's role in helping the community survive.
The project took seven years. Just last month Capen's "Father Tony" made its debut at a private showing at the historic Joy Theater on Canal Street in New Orleans.
"We saw more than you will ever know," said Capen, whose mother and father died about one year into the project. "I am not the same girl today. It was not only a personal journey. But to go through and witness post-Katrina was overwhelming."
Capen added, "The film was not intended to be about Katrina. We flew in six days before Katrina and intended just to film him. Then we got the call about a storm coming. That stormed turned out to be Katrina."
The film - 246 hours of footage edited down to 1 hour, five seconds - has won rave reviews and Capen is hoping to show it to the world.
"Father Tony" has been entered into the Palm Springs Film Festival.
The project drew the involvement of some of big names, including Christopher Holmes, an editor who worked on movies such as "Donny Brasco," "Bugsy" and "The Natural."
"We've entered it into a couple of film festivals," Capen said. "But the ultimate goal is to get it on an HBO documentary series."
It all started with the very first encounter between Ricard and Capen in Redlands. Ricard was in Southern California attending the Los Angeles Religious Education Congress, an event open to all faiths.
"Once he got on the altar, he just had a different delivery than what we had in Redlands," Capen said. "He was just on fire and inspirational. It pierced my heart."
Capen added, "The rest is history."
Even the location of the world premiere had special meaning. The Joy Theater had been destroyed by Katrina.
"The theater was packed and we walked to the seats and the emcee did the introductions, people just started clapping," Capen said.
Capen added, "Overwhelming and surreal are the two words to use. It was a long time putting this together."

Atlanta Falcons Cheerleader Shayla Stevens Versus Da Brat
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or follow us on Facebook. Thanks for visiting!
I guess Da Brat doesn't like Atlanta Falcon cheerleaders… or at least those named Shayla Stevens. Because of an alleged assault at a nightclub in Tucker, Ga, Stevens has hired power attorney Will Gary to represent her as she pursues the Da Brat in a litigious manner.
According to reports, Da Brat beat Stevens down so badly she suffered permanent damage to her face, including the possibility of neurological damage. Stevens' injuries have prevented her from continuing her duties has a Falcon cheerleader and she is going to miss a scheduled appearance on one of the never-ending streams of visual "entertainment" from Tyler Perry. Stevens was supposed to appear on the House of Payne television show.
Like any good lawyer should, Will Gary wasn't shy about offering his take on the situation:
"Our client was physically attacked by Da Brat and has suffered significant head injuries, permanent disfigurement as well as mental distress. Ms. Stevens is a cheerleader, choreographer, dancer, actress and entrepreneur, whose career has been greatly affected by this incident."
Of course, the reason I'm featuring this story is for the opportunity to talk about cheerleaders. In case you were wondering (and I know you are), this is Shayla Stevens:
Not to be confused with the other Shayla Stevens, who is famous for her roles in foot-fetish movies:
This, of course, is Da Brat, the alleged beat-downer:
Can't we all just get along? Or maybe just watch some good ole foot-fetish entertainment?

Dr. Jackson Avery (actor Jesse Williams) from Grey's Anatomy as a Stock Photo Model!
The other day I was helping out a client looking for different types of people in our stock photo base. After working in the stock photo industry for some years you begin to recognize the different models, and you'd probably greet them as old friends if you ran into them on the street. Even when you have 10.000+ models in your image base, as we do now, you still recognize a surprising number of them!
So at first I didn't stop to take a closer look when I saw a familiar face. But there was something about those blue eyes that made me click back to take a closer look. I thought to myself "This must be that Grey's Anatomy guy, Avery, but is he a stock photo model"? I got Jan to check the model release, and it's true.
Jesse Williams, who plays Jackson Avery in Grey's Anatomy, is a stock photo model represented at Yaymicro.com!
Let's enjoy his pictures while we wait for season 7, where he'll play a leading role. First episode, "With You I'm Born Again" airs on September 24, at ABC.
Cheers, Linda

Miller'd Yo: Flyers Shut Out by Sabres in Opener
Apr 15, 2011, 9:20 PM EDT
Sifting through the ashes of the Flyers' 1-0 loss to the Sabres to open the playoffs, it's hard to come down too hard on them despite losing a game we really wanted to see them win. They played well overall, with a single play that was by no means terrible leading to the game's only goal. The Flyers generated some very good scoring opportunities, but couldn't beat Ryan Miller, nor his defense, which clamped down on the slot and surrounding area once the Sabres had the lead.
Jeff Carter appears to be having a bit of trouble finding the puck.
Fulfilling our greatest concern going into the playoffs, the lack of any ability to score on the power play doomed the Flyers more than anything in this one. At even strength, they had pressure on Miller early and often, screens, and even some shots off of rebounds, but just couldn't beat him. The Sabres blocked shots efficiently, and the Flyers attack faded late.
The good news is, the Flyers looked a lot better in this loss than they had in their poor stretch run to end the regular season.
The bad news is, there's no place for "better" in the best of seven series, no moral victories—particularly when you get shut out.
Miller didn't need to be particularly stellar, although that is the hallmark of some of the best goalies. They make it look a little easier than it actually is. He was in position all night and seemingly saw the puck through a few pretty good screens. The Flyers could certainly stand to get a few more shots through traffic though, if not some deflections.
Particularly early on, the Flyers pressure was great, and throughout the game there were some good opportunities. It just didn't happen. The Sabres were strong in blocking shots and shutting down lanes toward the net.
The Briere line was on the ice for the game's lone goal, but they had a decent game overall. Danny Syvret's man scored the game-winner, as the annoying Patrick Kaleta got past him to slam home a long rebound. Syvret didn't have a terrible game, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Chris Pronger suit up in the next game if he can grip a stick.
The problem wasn't Syvret though. The defense overall was very solid, from the forward lines on back. Sergei Bobrovsky wasn't a concern at all despite the one long rebound that left open the deciding scoring opportunity. A failed brief 5-on-3 opportunity and an overall 0-5 power play sank the Flyers' chances in this one. At first, the inability to score felt like the Flyers were knocking on the door and would soon break through. As the game wore on past the halfway point though, it began to feel like exactly what it would become. The Sabres found the net once in their 25 shots on goal while the Flyers couldn't beat Miller in 35 shots.
James van Riemsdyk was the Flyers' best player tonight, selling to block shots and generating some of their better scoring opportunities. He looks like he could break out in a big way if the Flyers can help get him going.

Thing is I still have songs and stuff that I want to get off but can't access it (unless there are any suggestions any of you might have.)

In addition to your required courses you'll participate in classes and production assignments that encourage collaboration with students throughout the theatre department.
Our mainstage and workshop productions provide important opportunities for integrating classwork and establishing a professional work ethic. Ithaca College produces two musicals in most years, and a dance concert in alternating years, in addition to four plays and an opera. Musical Theatre students are eligible to audition beginning in their first semester, and required to audition in every subsequent semester, providing you with ample audition opportunities and experience in general auditions and callbacks. Ithaca's professional venues regularly audition (and hire) current IC students, giving you important early exposure to the professional production process.
You will receive clear, specific feedback on your strengths and areas for growth throughout the process. In the junior and senior years, you will take advanced courses in musical theatre technique focused on audition techniques, repertoire and style, as well as dance. Many musical theatre students take advantage of Ithaca College's London Center and spend the spring semester of their junior year studying British drama and culture. In the senior year, opportunities include workshops and master classes that help facilitate the transition to the profession. Most students attend a one-week field studies trip to New York City, connecting with a rich network of IC alumni in the entertainment business. Our alumni are committed to providing an important link to the industry, whether in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles or in theatre centers around the world.

SOUTHWESTERN SAN JUANS – They were halfway across the sky before you ever even saw them – the tight, sleek pack of F-16 fighter jets, traveling far faster than the speed of sound, that would buzz the mountain communities of the southwestern San Juans every Fourth of July.
This Independence Day, however, their pilots won't take to the skies.
Due to the federal budget sequestration of 2013 and ensuing spending cuts, the U.S. Department of Defense has directed the Air Force and other branches of the military to cancel all aerial demos for at least the remainder of the fiscal year.
The far-reaching directive applies to all Active-Duty, Reserve and Guard units across the country, including the 120th Fighter Squadron, the unit of the Colorado Air National Guard 140th Wing located at Buckley Air Force Base in Aurora that's usually charged with executing patriotic flyover missions in Colorado.
Even the Air Force Thunderbirds, along with the Army's and Navy's own aviation precision demonstration teams – the Silver Eagles and Blue Angels – are grounded for the 2013 season. The Air Force has announced that it needs to dial back its flying hours by as much as 18 percent altogether, or approximately 203,000 hours, this fiscal year, in response to the sequester, prioritizing shorter training missions that directly support combat readiness over the patriotic aerial displays put on for residents of the southwestern San Juans in recent years.
No one's more upset about the flyover cancellations than the pilots of the 120th themselves. "The Colorado Air National Guard is certainly not doing this by choice; our soldiers and airmen love the chance to get out in communities," said Captain Darin Overstreet, the Public Affairs Officer for Buckley Air Force Base's Air National Guard Unit.
Adding to the sting, the cancellations come in the midst of the 120th Fighter Squadron's 90th anniversary year. The squadron is a descendent organization of the World War I 120th Aero Squadron, established in 1917 (reformed in 1923 as the 120th Observation Squadron).
In 1946, the 120th was the first federally recognized Air National Guard unit. For a time, it boasted its own elite aerial demonstration team – the Minute Men – an Air National Guard counterpart to the Air Force Thunderbirds, who from 1953-1956 flew over 100 air shows in 47 states and five foreign countries, Overstreet said.
The Colorado Air National Guard is federally funded by the Air Force; when members deploy overseas, they are considered Air Force personnel. In recent years, the 120th Fighter Squadron has deployed multiple times to Iraq and the Pacific, as well as covering National Special Security Events such as the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver.
The significant difference between the Air Force and the Air National Guard is that the latter entity has both a state and a federal mission. That's why, for example, Gov. Hickenlooper is presently able to call on the Colorado Air National Guard to support ongoing wildfire missions, including a deployment to the raging West Fork Complex fire.
But the pilots of the 120th have always eagerly anticipated their Fourth of July patriotic flyovers as a welcome change of pace from such duties.
During a typical mission, they fly in two shifts – a morning crew and an afternoon crew – with two to four pilots in each crew, reaching as many as 20 communities across the state.
Each flyover must initiate with a request from a community, Overstreet said. The pilots then work with community event coordinators to make sure they hit each community's timeline as closely as possible, while at the same time developing a realistic flight path around the state.
In the San Juan mountains, their route over the past several years has generally encompassed Lake City, Silverton, Ouray and Telluride.
Flyovers demand time and expertise not just from the pilots, but also from ground and maintenance crews. Dollarwise, the missions cost roughly $7,500-$10,000 per flight hour, taking into account the cost of fuel, maintenance and personnel.
While patriotic flyovers are a treat for spectators, the Air Force National Guard has always considered them to be important training missions, as well. "The pilots get to practice arriving from a certain direction and reaching a target at a specific time," Overstreet said. "It's as much a benefit to them as to the community."
Rod Rasmussen has served as Ouray's annual fly-over coordinator on behalf of the Ouray Volunteer Fire Department for the past several years. He sees heavy political implications in this year's cancellations. "Flight demos are some of the best recruiting tools the military has," he said.
With two pilot sons who are themselves Air Force captains, and a nephew who flies an F-18 Super Hornet in the Navy, Rasmussen has special insight into the larger-scale costs of sequestration which the the nation is bearing in terms of military preparedness, pointing to "incredibly troubling" cuts to flight training which are currently taking place. "We can't skimp on something as important as national defense," he said.

text: To say that Kate Middleton had an eventful 2012 would be an understatement. After a highly publicized 2011 marriage to Prince William, the newly christened Duchess of Cambridge was named one of Time's 100 Most Influential People in the World. Unfortunately for Kate, not to mention the entire Royal Family, this pristine beauty was also the center of some controversy earlier this year. Closer, a French magazine, published a set of photos of the Duchess sunbathing topless, a move that resulted in not only a ton of tabloid coverage, but a lawsuit as well.

Inspiration Gallery: The Modern Bath
We've noticed parallels between trends in the kitchen and the bath before. A bathroom is more than a room of necessity; it's a place for pampering. It should be beautiful as well as efficient and easy to clean.
Sleek, white on white, Scandinavian design keeps us coming back for more. It's a modern, clean and ongoing trend. The addition of wood adds warmth, and shades of gray add depth through the use of paint, tile, concrete, and other stone products.
If your space is small, designing for storage is crucial. This means incorporating smart solutions for counters and providing surfaces that don't become vast collectors of dust and unnecessary objects. Vanities that are lifted or wall hung make cleaning the floor much easier.
- Raina & Roberts farmhouse bathroom keeps it clean and white, with a sink insert for added storage.
- Lack of contrast makes this small white bathroom from Carvers & Schicketanz appear fresh and airy.
- The narrow wood shelf in this bathroom, from House and Leisure, is both functional and warm.
- Wall or pedestal sinks are great in tiny spaces, but under-counter casework is a huge bonus, if space permits. Check out this bathroom from Elle Decor, via Sacramento Street.
- Another beautiful vanity, as seen in this bathroom from Transitoinicial.
- Grey, white and wood combine nicely in this bathroom from House to Home.
- M. Elle Design created this bathroom, via Decorpad.
- This Australian bathroom from Camilla Molders Design combines tile and wood to nice effect.

LOVE the look of the first bathroom...except the toilet paper looks too far away from the toilet!
Haha, the toilet paper was the 2nd thing I noticed. Looks about the same distance as in my master bath. Mine can't be relocated so it serves as storage for an extra roll & the one in use lives on the back of the toilet. Extremely annoying.
First thing I noticed was that drool worthy sink. Once I got the stars out of my eyes, I realized I would be regretting my choice the very first morning I had to get ready in there....and never mind when it came time to clean it. (I can see as much water ending up on the floor as in the sink). It is gorgeous though! I have enough form-over-functions notches in my belt to just enjoy the eye candy and let the thought go.
The sink in the first photo is the Lillangen sink from Ikea. I have one in my bathroom (not mounted on a flush cabinet like in the above, but hacked onto a butcher block counter top so we could have larger drawers below and a bit of counter space) and I love it. It's not that bad to clean, more like a kitchen sink than a normal bathroom basin. There are a few photos on my (rather neglected) blog http://we-are-happy-inside.blogspot.com/
These rooms are all stunning, I wish my bathroom looked half as sleek and modern as these!
Love how clean and spacious these bathrooms look!

Every good baked beans recipe has both an element of heat and of sweet. This, my very favorite vegetarian baked beans recipe, has healthy doses of each. There's no need for the salt pork or bacon found in many traditional baked beans recipes – these pack a huge punch of flavor just they way they are. (How Bridget-Jones-esque!)
The beans (I start with dried pinto beans) are first cooked simply – with onion, bay leaf and black peppercorns. Then the cooked beans are placed in the Crock Pot for some nice low-and-slow action, infusing every last bite with the rich sauce made with pure maple syrup and the spicy kick of everyone's beloved Sriracha.Read More

How should you arrange a school science lab? You should have sturdy lab tables or complete laboratory workstations, with enough space for every student to work comfortably. However, no lab is ready until it's furnished with the proper safety equipment. Our eye wash stations and lab showers ensure that students are protected.
What are the most important elements of school science lab design?
The first thing to consider when furnishing an entire lab is the work surface options. Workstations and tables are both great options. Ultimately, the right choice depends on your needs. Lab tables are more versatile because they can be moved around when you want to rearrange a classroom. Workstations, however, have the added convenience of built in gas and water fixtures. If your science curriculum includes many experiments that utilize an open flame, having enough gas fixtures in the room is very important.
No matter which configuration you select, you will need to choose the ideal work surface material for your environment. Lab tables are much tougher than regular tables so they can withstand the chemicals and other harsh materials that are used for experiments. Surface materials come in varying degrees of toughness including chemical-resistant and epoxy resin options.
Laboratory tables generally seat two students side by side. This is an ideal arrangement because many teachers like students to work in pairs. When students work together they develop important communication skills and use less supplies per person.
How should I choose lab table arrangements?
Workstations come in forward-facing arrangements, or with students seated on all sides. If you have many instructional periods in which students must face the board and take notes, it is important for everyone to be facing forward so they can see clearly. Lab workstations facilitate work in pairs or larger groups. While you are making sure that budding scientists have a place to work, don't forget about their teachers. Be sure to include a well-equipped instructor's desk that is as well.
What kind of chairs should you have in the science lab?
Every room in a school needs to have appropriate seating, and the science classroom is no exception. No matter how work spaces are configured, our lab stools provide the support that is needed during classes. They come in a variety of materials and styles, from leading manufacturers including National Public Seating, Academia and OFM.
Choose hardboard, hard plastic or padded seats. We even have swivel stools with anti-bacterial, anti-microbial vinyl upholstery. If you prefer mesh or wooden stools, we have those too. Models are available with and without backrests, with square or round seats. To make sure that people of all sizes can stay positioned properly, adjustable-height options are available as well.
Where is the best place to store lab materials?
Every experiment requires a unique set of materials. Rather than having to run back and forth to a storage closet or spend a considerable amount of time setting up the laboratory in advance you can keep all necessary materials handy with lab storage. Lab cabinets come with either wood or glass doors, in freestanding, mobile and wall-mounted models. If you are working with extremely harsh chemicals, flammable liquids safety cabinets from Edsal will keep everything securely stowed away when not in use. Microscope storage cabinets are available as well.
How can I make the science lab safe?
Ensure that every experiment is a safe one with precautionary equipment. Every operational lab needs to have a lab shower and eye wash station, in case of the unlikely event that they are needed. You can get both of these items installed in one unit or order them separately. We even have eyewash stations that can be installed on a regular sink.
Demonstrate proper technique and regard for the learning process with lab furniture from Hertz Furniture. All of our items are safe and functional so students and teachers can enjoy a proper worry-free experiment experience. If you need help arranging your space and choosing the ideal furnishings for it, contact the experts at the Hertz Design Center for free project-planning advice.

All of Academia's models are designed for long-term use in the educational environment. In fact, with 25-year and Limited Lifetime Warranties you are guaranteed to enjoy the benefits of this versatile and colorful school furniture for many years to come. The huge selection of styles and materials is sure to fit any budget or preference.
Classroom work spaces can be supplied by activity tables or school desks. Activity tables are appropriate for children from preschool through elementary school. Academia school tables come in a number of sizes, styles and shapes. No matter what shape you choose, Educational Edge tables offer a great way to add a splash of color to a learning space. They will make any classroom more lively and inviting.
School desks aren't what they used to be. Although the classic four legged design with a book-box underneath the work surface is still available, Academia brings you a number of viable alternatives that are suited to the modern classroom. Their exclusive WoodStone desktops have the durability of hard plastic, yet they cost and weigh significantly less. For maximum strength and versatility, models are available with adjustable-height and U-braces for reinforcement.
Student chair desks should be considered when purchasing classroom furniture. They come in the same durable materials as school desks, but with the added convenience of attached seating. When a classroom is full of combo desks, teachers can be sure that students won't lean back in their chairs, and there are always enough chairs to match desks. Combo desks also guarantee that chair and desk heights match up.
For those who opt not to furnish a classroom with chair desks, school seating must be purchased so students have a place to sit in class. Academia offers some tough classic poly shell and hard plastic models as well as attractive new designs from the Inspiration Series. These sleek school chairs come in vibrant colors and feature 17 reinforcement ridges for a durable, flexible and supportive design.
Even your youngest learners deserve to learn in an environment with appropriately-sized school furniture. Academia activity tables and school chairs come in any height that you need, so you can have first-rate preschool furniture as well. When young learners have school chairs and activity tables that are just the right size, it is easier for them to develop proper posture and skills.
While the classroom is where students spend the bulk of their time at school, there are a number of other rooms that also require appropriate furniture. Whether they are learning how to utilize technology for educational purposes or harness their musical talents, your pupils need furniture that supports their endeavors. With the right pieces, you can channel the hard work of children and young adults toward future successes.
Computers are becoming increasingly important in the educational environment. Some functional computer tables can help support technology in the classroom, or furnish a contemporary computer lab. In order to ensure that your setup promotes ergonomic positioning, some appropriate computer chairs are necessary as well. With the right computer furniture, students can learn how to type correctly and hone their online research skills.
When furnishing a music room or band room, regular tables and chairs just won't cut it. Music furniture is specially designed to help student musicians play in a healthy position so they will learn how to hold their instruments and breathe correctly from the beginning. Academia's musician chairs support students as they play, whether in practices or performances.
Another room that requires special furniture is the science lab. Having appropriate lab furniture ensures the safety of students and teaches proper experimentation techniques. Academia offers a number of excellent lab stools that enable students to sit comfortably as they take notes or experiment at counter-height surfaces.
Creating an environment that is conducive to education and growth begins with appropriate layouts for learning. In order to make sure that students are properly supported with the physical tools that are needed for success, you want to give them the best school furniture out there. Academia school furniture provides the models you need to put students on the path to success as they gain critical knowledge that will be carried far into the future.

In short: A good challenge, well organised and enjoyableIn full: The hills were a good challenge, and the 1.30 pace runner did a good job. Not sure what happened at the mens start where one of the runners at the front was crouched down when the race started. The runners directly in front and behind me went head first straight over him.Overall the course is good with good support from the marshals. My only minor gripe is that between 11 and 12 miles it's a very narrow path with nowhere else to run. The people walking along here pushing prams weren't ideal.Date of review: February 6, 2011
In short: Hilly but enjoyable. Lots of support.In full: A great race, with lots of support. The hills are sharp but at least fairly short! Despite the hills- smashed my PB! Who could ask for more! Date of review: February 6, 2011
In short: Hilly but fun!In full: Enjoyable race. V friendly tent staff, marshalls and runners. If I had to gripe it would be - little narrow in places, but not too noticeable. The 1:45 pace runner was fantastic and he led me to a PB.Date of review: February 6, 2011

I originally purchased this graphic and gave it 2 stars because of print quality. Ryan from the Attack Graphics Dept. read the review and contacted me and apologized. He said they had some production during the time period of my purchase and this should have never been shipped as it was. He shipped me a new graphic at no cost. The new graphic looks great on my bike. Print quality and fit were excellent. Excellent customer service, that was unexpected. Can't ask for any more than that.Read All Reviews

In the summer of 1974.I was a junior in High School who continued to run All-Comer track races at various spots in Southern Calif. My main hero at the time was John Walker of New Zealand. The man who would become Olympic champion and world record holder. He just came off that amazing Commonwealth Games 1500. To this day my favorite 1500/mile race of all-time. One day I decided to run an all-comers at Long Beach Jordan High school. It was sparsely attended. I noticed a familiar person in the stands wearing all black. When I realized who it was I stopped dead in my tracks and said to my friend, "Oh my god. That's John Walker!" What's he doing here? I said to my friend, "What ever race he runs in, I'm going to run in." I was an 800 meter guy and Walker chose to run that as well. So we toe the line along with one other athlete, a 1:48 guy from UCLA named Jeff Haynes. We ran on a dirt track. I had the furthest lane out. I felt like I was in a dream. The gun goes off! By the time we had gotten around the first turn Walker had passed me. I had never seen so much dirt being thrown up by spikes before. I completely forgot about my race and just watched this magnificent beast run! John Walker ran 1:52, Haynes 1:54 and this green junior in high school, 2:06. That equaled my best for the year. But the thing I will never forget and did not expect is that John Walker waited for me to cross the line, his hand extended and said to me, "nice race." What made it additionally surreal is that this was held at dusk and the setting sun behind Walker. His long blond hair gave off a glow. My reaction was, "I have seen the face of God!" Not really, but pretty damn close. I'm 56 years old now, and I still get excited talking about it. John Walkers handshake was an encouragement for many years. In 1979 I improved all the way down to 1:50.7 and was satisfied when I retired. P.s John Walker was at this rinkydink track meet because the following week he would be a guest at the AAU National Championships and would be racing against Wohlhuter. He just wanted to stretch his legs out after a 22hr plane flight.

Thanks for sharing the story.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
That is a feel good story. Thanks.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
Great story! Thanks for telling it here.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
That IS cool!!
Extremely hard to imagine anything like that happening now. I
Re: A Brush With Greatness
I may have told this before but humor me repeating my brush with greatness.
For the past 40 years, I have run in the annual invitational Tyler Cup, a 2 mile race/fun run, back-scratching event for over age 40 executives held a Ken Cooper's Dallas clinic every October/November. About 200 run each year in eight seeded "participation" heats and a serious Championship heat.
The second year of the race, 1973, Frank Shorter, although not 40, attended as a celebrity guest runner, easily winning the Championship heat in about 9:30. At the conclusion of the heats. he ran a five mile race against a 10 x 880 relay team of mortals. Selection for the relay is not necessarily based on running prowess so he was not pressed, carrying on a conversation with each relay runner. When the last relayer dropped out, Frank picked up the pace and ran a solo 4:17 mile.This event was held the day before the NY marathon . This was his pre-race day workout. After lunch he got on someone's private jet and flew to NY.
In 1973, I was still lean and mean and running in the Ch heat with the other low 10:00ers. I was wearing an Oklahoma State shirt, OkSt was enjoying some X-C success at the time. Frank mistakenly assumed I had some distance credentials. He smoked us.
Frank has run in nearly every Tyler Cup since then, lowering the 2 mile record to 9:17 the year he turned 40 and participated in the event as a "peer".
Frank runs in the 12:00s now but still as light as a feather.
I have been priviledge to provide local transportation for Frank and Billy Rogers the years they have teamed up to run the 2 x half in the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon.
Frank is an interesting guy on much more than running, dedicated to eliminating doping and still campaigning to have Cerpinski(sp?) DQed from the Montreal marathon.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
Thanks for the story lone wolf. I enjoy picturing myself in your situation to try to experience it "first hand."
Re: A Brush With Greatness
I'm adding this to my John Walker story. Maybe some of you remember John Walker took some serious time off to get Achilles surgery in the early '80's I think. He chose to make his first comeback race to be the Mohammed Ali Invit, an indoor event in Los Angeles which no longer exists. I was there with my wife who was a track fan as well. Anyway, Walker sets a new indoor WR in the 1500, running 3:37+. After the race Walker is walking up a nearby aisle. My wife was so caught up in the moment that she went up to him alone to congratulate him. I'm watching from a distance. She then asked him if she could kiss him. It caught John off guard and he said yes. I remember John smiling but blushing. Got a great laugh out of it!
Re: A Brush With Greatness
I enjoyed both bearraccon and lonewolf's stories...good stuff.
Closest I have come to a brush with greatness was an October, 1961 cross-country race with Dennis Carr of Lowell H.S. I pushed the pace hard all the way in the 1.8mile race...Carr stayed with me until the final about 200m and then kicked away for a 8:54 to 8:58 win...we both broke the course record. Later in the track season Carr ran a 4:08.7 mile and was California state champion and in 1967 I watched him place second to Wade Bell in the 800m in the NCAA held at Provo, Utah.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
Great stories! I always thought it would be cool to have a world class athlete show up at a local track and do some intervals or a fast mile. The best I've ever seen was in the middle of the night at a junior high school track in Orlando - I was doing a 13 miler at 7:10 pace, and a guy came up and did 6 x 1 mile with a 440 jog inbetween at 4:38 pace. I kept doing my laps, but was amazed to see a workout like this out of nowhere. Of course, there was the time a cow wandered onto the track while I was doing quarters, and when I came around the backstrech, I wasn't sure what the hell was at the end of the straightaway!
Re: A Brush With Greatness
Several years ago, I think it was before the 1996 or 2000 OTs, Sheila Hudson, who was living and training in Fayetteville, Ark, showed up unannounced and at an all-comers/last chance meet at Univ Okla. I knew her from many previous high level meets but none of the other officials or competitors knew who she was. It was a small turnout so I jumped Men and Women together.
It was amusing to watch her beat all the men except OU's # 1( at the time) TJer , who broke 50 feet for the first time.
Shelia was one of the most technically efficient TJers I have ever observed, getting everything out of her diminutive body, leaving only a pair of size 5 foot prints in the sand as she extended and rotated forward, no butt, no body, no hands. She was a good LJer and I believe, had she had the physical stature of the East European women, would have been in the upper echelon of Women TJ.
All that and she was/is attractive, shy and modest.
If I sound like a Shelia Hudson fan.. yep.
Oh yeah. Forgot. By grand coincidence, I happened to be the Pit Judge for two of her ARs. New Orleans and Atlanta, I think.

I knew eating hamburgers was the key to WR times! Cool story...I assume you didn't take any pictures? That would be something to see those guys at the BBQ.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
Like many of the posters here I've kicked around the sport for a half century as a fan and official hanging out with the cool folks often came with it. Not the only story but given Mathew's recent success I'll toss this.
The setting
NYAC afterparty at Millrose
The cast
doing the listening
Bill Rodgers
Tom Fleming
Reese Hoffa
A couple of guys who "only" managed to run 2:12/2:15 at Boston back when.
The Talkers
Eamonn Coghlan
Matt Centrowitz sr.
Their topic
Their sons
The content
Exactly like you would hear in the stands at any HS meet when two random Proud Poppa's get to talking and chest puffing about the offspring.
John and Mathew would go on to join their fathers in the Sub Four Club. 40% of all fathers in the Father&Sons Sub Four in one conversation .
A brush with greatness--I've had a number of Scott Davis hugs and each one ranks as a brush with greatness in my book.
My life in the NYC restaurant business has given me the opportunity to become friends with a number of sports greats. One quick one- I'm out with a couple of NYC guys having dinner at Rusty Staubs joint on 73 st and Third ave when a fan comes to the table asking for an autograph. He walks away with a menu with Rusty Staub, Rod Gilbert, Joe Namath, Jerry Philbin and wineturtle's signature on it. I'm sure he has shown it to many of his friends. I often wonder what he says when they ask "Who's Tom Hyland"

Re: A Brush With Greatness
Old story (here): He was senior, I was a freshman (NE boarding school), I sat at his table (Srs were in charge) for 2 weeks and had to serve the food and then clear the table. He was one of the nicest Table Leaders. He broke all the Cross Country course records that fall. The next year all his records were broken by another boy, Julian Nichols, who continued to run well afterwards, but . . . didn't win the Olympic Marathon!
Re: A Brush With Greatness
In the late 1970s and early 80s I taught in an elementary school in Northern NJ. I was an avid runner and discovered a 6th grader who was training with his father for the NYC Marathon. In those days there were no age limits. The boy told me that during the previous summer he was a spectator at a local little league baseball game. In the stands he spotted Lasse Viren. He approached Viren and began to speak to him. Viren was surprised that he was recognized. He quizzed the boy on what he (Viren had done). When the boy answered the questions Viren asked him where he had gotten the information. The boy answered Runners World. Viren added that he was rarely recognized and never in this town.But what really surprised Viren was that an American kid actually knew what he had done. It turned out that a woman who lived in the town came from Viren's village and he felt more comfortable staying with her family rather than in a hotel across the river in NYC. The boy later ran a successful marathon but by high school had lost all interest in running.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
Local all-comers' meets can be great venues for lining up against some serious talent. At my local meet in Los Gatos, CA, I've run against (among others) Andre Phillips and Ato Boldon. Closest I've ever come to being lapped in a 400m race In the case of Phillips, it was only a few weeks before Seoul. He had the first 5 hurdles set up in his lane (everyone else was running a flat 400), and ran 47.0.
Re: A Brush With Greatness
I was at the West Coast Relays at Fresno State in the late 1967 or 68 and the high jump area was jammed up close to the shot ring in front of the homestretch grandstand. Lots of greatness all around (Tommie Smith and Lee Evans and lots more...) but the closest brush was while my teammate and I were lounging around flaked out on the grass waiting for the HJ bar to be raised.
My buddy nudged me and said, "Maybe we'd better move." I rolled over to see that Randy Matson was standing about 3 feet away from us, throwing his shot straight up in the air (as in waaay high) and catching it in one hand, then repeating the process over and over. He seemed to have that 16 lb. ball under complete control but we still beat a hasty retreat.

Kingpin Skinny Pimp – Tha Classic Lyrics
[Skinny Pimp]
Get that money mane if you true to the game
Brothers coming up mane street thugs never change
Straight out the projects now we cashing fat checks
Pimp came a long way from slangin out the duplex
Now I'm on BET with A.J. and Free
Bringin out my new release it's a classic to the streets
Still hard never flauge all in NYC like the mob
When I do my job pulling up in them fancy cars
This is for my gangstas ballin in them Cadillac trucks
Moving weight state to state telling me come the sets full
Now we in the bigger biz still taking care of the kids
Still taking care of the fam still hitting big licks
Anybody cross us y'all gotta die
Understand this we ain't letting nothing slide
We Mafia so never forget and respect that
This is the business this is Tha Classic
[Hook 2X: 211]
Why don't you come to my ghetto hood watch me come up
On the video scene riding clean we blowed up
The Kings of the south got it all sewed up
Tha Classic this is the classic
[Skinny Pimp]
Hard times hard years and hard peers I done been thru it
This time no sad faces cuz we gotta do it
Get rich or die trying this is for my ghetto moms
Mothers in the ghetto this is coming from your son
The dope game show me the rap game owe me
Now everybody in the world finna feel me
The IC triple P International Cross country
Professional Paid Pimp bringing it back to the streets
Never will I sell my sold for a pot of gold
I will kill these folks before I let them do me cold
I'm the chosen one and I keep God first in my life
Even when I'm strapped up riding in the silent night
I keep it true like my kinfolk Lucky Lou
If he don't get you Big Hill gonna get you
So when it's time to ride we gon keep it real quiet
And when you gotta die you can't blame my guys
[Skinny Pimp]
Why don't you take a trip to Memphis that's where all the pimps at
Maury suits and Gator boots fine women and our strips
We full of pure passion leaders or fashion
Pimping and macking big bank we stacking
24 inch big wheelers car dealers drug dealers
Big gun shooters and we grid up like P-Miller
We got the money and power
The good and the Johnson to Johnson we self-rising like flour
Why don't you come to my ghetto hood watch me come up
On the video scene riding clean we blowed up
The kings of the south got it all sewed up
Plenty of pimping in the big body of grown rode up
The flicker of the diamonds all around the wrist is shining
Pure pure rubian flex sipping wine and
Bag them loot bundles of cash in the plastic
This is the classic COME!

Q: I drive a 2010 Mazda 3 that has 47,000 miles. When I fill up I always reset the trip odometer and have typically gotten 300 +/- miles per tank and usually refill when the light comes on. The last 30 days without any other observable difference I am getting much better mileage traveling 450 miles +/tank. I even had the dealer check the odometer for accuracy. I have been so nervous that I refill when at 1/2 tank fearing the gas gauge is faulty but consistently I only need 6 gallons or so to fill it up. Is there any explanation for this? I suppose I should just be happy about it but have a long trip planned for October and do not want to sit on the side of the road out of gas.
— L.W., Orlando
A: Are you telling us that your fuel economy and driving range have improved by over 30 percent? That's beyond belief. Instead of asking us for advice, we suggest you contact Ripley's Believe it of Not at ripleys.com.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
Q: Recently, I had two problems with my 2000 Chevy Malibu. I had the A/C compressor replaced and the intake gasket set replaced (gasket replaced because of a coolant leak) at the same service appointment. Was it necessary to have the oil, oil filter, and air filter replaced as part of these services? I'm sure replacing the air filter wasn't mandatory. I would like your opinion concerning this before I question the shop who did the work.
— J.A., Allentown, Pa.
A: We would probably have changed the oil and filter after the plenum gasket repair since there is a chance that coolant had entered the crankcase. And, since the air cleaner housing had to be removed, it is good a preventive service to drop a new filter in. Now, if they had tried to sell you new giggle pins, we would feel differently.
Q: I have a 2009 Honda Pilot and it has the low tire pressure warning system. Is it safe to use the pressurized air sealant if you have this option in your car?
— A.G., Chicago
A: The new generation of tire sealants are compatible with tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) devices. Check the can's label to verify that it is TPMS safe. If you have any old sealants, toss them out or use them for you lawn tractor.
Q: Three years ago I purchased a home generator and filled the tank and a five gallon can with gas. Since then I have run the generator for ten minutes every four months. At the same time I give both containers a few squirts of Stabil. I have no trouble starting the generator. Should I be concerned about the old gas? Should I drain and replenish the generator gas? Is it OK to put the old gas in my 2011 Toyota Avalon or my Geo?
— R.R., Des Plains, Ill.
A: It is not a bad idea to get rid of stale gasoline, even though you have use a fuel stabilizer. Either drain the generator or run it dry. You should have no problem adding the old gas to a nearly full tank in either of your vehicles. It sure beats pouring it on the ground or down a storm sewer and polluting the environment.
Q: I will be in the market for a new pickup truck in the spring and have pretty much settled on a Ford F150. Although I'm not sure if it will be a Lariat or XLT, it will be a SuperCab with a 6.5 ft. bed. I don't intend to purchase a 4-wheel-drive truck since I live in slower, Lower Delaware where we seem to have relatively mild winters with only a little snow. My question relates to the EcoBoost engine. Do you feel it is worth the investment of the additional purchase price over the stock V-8? I have read pros and cons about the engine and as a result am confused as to its worth. It seems to get better mileage over the V-8 but if it requires high test gasoline I think it would take a long time to break even on the purchase price vs. the higher cost for premium gasoline.
— P.A., Millsboro, Del.
A: The EcoBoost engine does not require premium fuel; it will run fine on regular, but won't run on E85 like the other engines. Although you say you are not interested in the 4WD version, Consumer Guide reported that they got 16.2 mpg on a 4WD model with the 5.0-liter V-8 compared to an EcoBoost V-6-powered crew cab that averaged 15.7 mpg in similar driving conditions. We suggest you also check out http://www.fueleconomy.gov where you can compare vehicles' fuel economy side-by-side. We found that the V-6 was rated at 18 mpg combined city and highway ($3,150 annual fuel cost) while the V-8 was rated at 14 mpg ($4,050 annual fuel cost).
Q: I noticed that the article on E10 vs. E85 has a picture of a sign claiming "not gasoline" 85% ethanol. How stupid are these people? And it is misleading an already incredibly stupid public? E85 is 85 percent gasoline, not 85 percent ethanol so it is still gasoline. The format to describe this new formula should be consistent and be called E15.
— D.I., Chicago
A: We can't blame you for being confused. We live in a world where almost everything has been truncated or abbreviated. Pizza is now just 'za. Tattoos are tats. Even numerals such as 2 and 4 are subbed for the words "to" (or two or too) and "for." ABRS is even an abbreviation for "abbreviations.' So it is no surprise that motor fuels have alpha-numeric designations. E85 is not gasoline, but a fuel that is mostly alcohol. It is 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline. E10 is 10 percent ethanol. E15 is 15 percent ethanol. CUL8R.

Hey Jonny, I made you a few new profile images to use whenever you want! Enjoy!
Wow awesome pictures, with such gorgeous cars! Love them! Switching my image now.
Thanks man, but for some reason it seems like they aren't fitting quite right though... Unfortunately I can't control that... Sorry. :( I'm glad you like them, though!
Thanks for the sub man!
No problem! Definitely want to know if you build something again soon.
Hey Jonny,
I came by an 'Ible, with someone posting your clock:
I'm not sure if they are tying to take credit since your not credited at all and they even created instructions for it, even though you already have.
I thought I'd let you know.
Thanks for the heads up! I see you and Dr. R already have told him so. I am kind of offended for not receiving credit, but kind of touched to see someone else built it and powered by a falling weight instead of a motor. I told him something like that.
But thanks for defending my idea though! It is kind of funny how every part of that looks exactly the same as mine.........

AUSTIN -- While the Austin City Limits Music Festival takes a break, South By Southwest is back in the mix with its Eco Festival.
The event's third year kicked off Monday, bringing collaborative thinkers to Central Texas.
About 3,000 people are expected to attend the three-day festival; everyone from skaters to senators. They all have one goal: to save our planet.
In the past conventions like this were more segmented into groups. For example there was one for the farming industry or one for the water preservation industry. This year that has changed. Organizers say that kind of event was not productive because people couldn't talk about improving one thing without it affecting the others.
SXSW Eco brings professionals from a range of different fields together to make change happen world-wide.
"Be it in energy, design, food, water, etcetera. It's a place where all of these professionals come together, hopefully get on the same page [and] make new business collaborations that they wouldn't make at other events," Program Manager Chris Sonnier said.
Sonnier says he is learning a lot with each year of the South by Southwest Eco Festival. He says it shows Austin is ripe for innovation, and he's hopeful some great partnerships will come from relationships formed downtown.
