USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service Employees Overcome Risks to Contribute to Stability and Development in Iraq and Afghanistan
When you hear about two employees dedicating their time to an important issue such as this one, the least one can do is acknowledge the level of commitment and importance of the roles they play for the agency and USDA.
Dr. Jaroslaw Fabis, a Supervisory Veterinary Medical Officer in Raleigh, North Carolina, volunteered in Maysan, a town near the Iranian border, from February to October 2009. Dr. Fabis joined the American Embassy in Iraq as an agriculture advisor for the Provincial Reconstruction Teams (PRT) to contribute to the goal of stability and development of the Iraqi agricultural community. Part of the U.S. mission in Iraq is to strengthen this particular sector of the community to facilitate their economic autonomy and Dr. Fabis took time out of his regular duties to accomplish just that. As the first veterinarian to visit Maysan, Dr. Fabis worked closely with the Maysan Veterinary Hospital to improve livestock health and productivity. He also trained 125 veterinarians and veterinary technicians and renovated the Amara City slaughterhouse. For his efforts, Dr. Fabis received letters of appreciation from the U.S. Embassy Agriculture Counselor, the Provincial Directory of Veterinary Hospital and Congressman Joseph Courtney of the Armed Services Committee. FSIS is extremely proud of his dedication, commitment and sacrifice in support of our country, the military and civilian operations in Iraq. Read more »

Too short

Slippery soles
"Sizing runs small (followed other reviewers' suggestions and ordered up). Very cute style. However, soles are incredibly slippery to the point of being dangerous. I thought I'd fall and hurt myself just walking around the house!"

"The advise of others is greatly appreciated! This sandal is at least a FULL size off. The style is cute, and the quality of construction is adequate for a flip-flop. However, the description is not correct. These sandals are clearly labeled, synthetic sole. The sole is not leather, and there is some off gassing associated with the synthetics. I would recommend this product with these reservations."

Lea is survived by her parents, Lee and Kathleen Madsen; siblings: Jennifer (Jason) Thomas, Geoff (Alisa) Madsen, and Andrew Madsen all of Orangeville, Margaret (Rick) Puckett of Saratoga Springs, and Daniel (Jenna) Madsen of Castle Dale; 11 wonderful nieces and nephews; and caring grandparents, Sheldon and Dorothy Madsen of Provo.

More than 10 months after Colorado voters approved the legalization of recreational marijuana use and sales, confusion reigns.
Sure, passage of Amendment 64 last November made a few things clear: Possession of up to 1 ounce is legal. People under 21 years of age may not purchase pot. It remains illegal to smoke marijuana in public places.
But a couple of the most basic questions still need to be answered: Where can one legally buy it? How much will it cost?
The first question is being explored by Colorado's cities and counties. At this point, few Denver-area municipalities have opted to make retail sales legal, instead taking a cautious, wait-and-see approach. Some — like unincorporated Jefferson County — have already decided to outright ban retail sales. It's possible most of Colorado could follow suit, leaving the state with a handful of "marijuana islands" where pot is legally sold.
The cost question is largely in the hands of the state's voters. On top of whatever price point the marijuana market dictates, there will be taxes, and in Colorado, that means voter approval is needed.
A recent rally at the Capitol in Denver urged approval of a 15 percent excise tax and a 10 percent sales tax on the retail marijuana industry. If the state's voters approve Proposition AA in November, money from the taxes would reportedly go toward school construction and regulation of the marijuana industry.
In general, we support approval of this proposition. It helps ensure the marijuana industry will pay for itself, and helps schools, to boot. But we do wonder if too many taxes could lead pot customers to turn back to the black market.
The 25 percent statewide tax from Proposition AA would be in addition to whatever taxes local municipalities' voters approve.
Denver, for example, is asking residents to say yes to a 5 percent tax. The total tax toll of 30 percent could lead to an unaffordable product in what figures to be the state's largest marijuana-selling zone.
Having customers once again turn to the dealer down the street would be a clear example of the law of unintended consequences. But we feel taxes may be the only way to keep the retail pot business from being a burden on Colorado, something the medical marijuana industry has been over the last few years. The state will have to bank on people's willingness to pay the price for legality.
Even after the issues of where to buy and how much it will cost are officially answered, there will remain plenty of gray areas. For example, many people are uncertain if they will get fired from their jobs if they partake. Others aren't clear on how much they can smoke and still legally drive.
Truth be told, it may take years — and more than a few legal challenges — before all the answers are in. But this November's election and the actions of local governments in the months to follow should add important measures of clarity amid the lingering cloud of confusion.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The Emery County Care and Rehab facility in Ferron is in a transition period, but the staff and management want everyone to know it's business as usual caring for your loved ones.
Ilene Baker is the administrator for the care center. "We want everyone to know we are here and we're doing well. We have been serving Carbon and Emery counties for 46 years.
"We have resident care and temporary care for those needing to recuperate and do physical therapy. We work hard to prevent infections in those recuperating from surgery or an accident.
"We have 24/7 care from nurses and CNAs. We have open beds at the facility. We are licensed for 55 beds. We have seven rooms that are available for independent living, private pay. These rooms have private showers and dining facilities. They have a fridge and a microwave and we are available to give as much help as the individual needs.
"I have been with the care center for 36 years and we have many long term employees here. Melody Killpack is our director of nursing," said Baker.
The managment team at the care center meets each morning to keep things running smoothly. At the management meeting on this morning they voiced their perceptions on the care given at the center. They said, the residents are well taken care of and they receive quality care. They refer to everyone at the center as part of one big family.
They hope you think of the care center and the service that is available locally to keep your loved ones in the community. One member of the management team has friends from Salt Lake that are planning to use the facility for their aging loved ones. The team said it's not a very far drive from Carbon County to make use of the facility in the country setting. It's well worth the drive.
Their motto at the care center is one team one dream. Their goal is to be the best in the state. They have good food for the residents and can take care of any special dietary needs.The center offers many activities for the residents. The care center is more economical than similar facilities. Baker said they have an amazing crew and everyone truly cares for the residents. They are like a big family at the facility and it feels like home to employees and residents alike. The employees are 110 percent committed to make the facility succeed.
Baker said, "Are you searching for quality health care service that you can trust to care for your loved ones? There's no need to search, we have been providing superior care for 46 years. We are devoted to presenting an enhanced quality to you and your loved ones lives by bringing you tailor made health care service. Your satisfaction and comfort are our goals. We pay attention to the needs of the individual and the caregivers. We create family-like comfortable relationships that fit the needs of the resident and provide the appropriate skill level. Our superior care is worth the drive from out of the area. Personalized care is our speciality," said Baker.
The quality staff at the care center is waiting to help you and your loved ones in your time of need.

Virgin Blue Flying High With Financial Figures17/06/2001
Sydney-Melbourne Flights From July 15
Virgin Blue, Australia's only low fare carrier has celebrated its first preliminary financial results by announcing it will begin flying on the world's third busiest route, Sydney-Melbourne as of July 15.
The decision follows the release of Virgin Blue's first trading figures since its start-up on August 31 last year to its balance sheet date of 31 March 2001.
Virgin Blue expects to record a trading profit in excess of half a million dollars for the financial period ending 31 March 2001. The net result after the writing off of abnormal items will be a loss of $11-million.
The non-trading abnormal item relates to the board's decision to write off all costs associated with Virgin Blue's pre-commencement (16 month period from November 1999 to August 30 2000). Further details will be released next week after KPMG gives audit clearance.
Chief Executive, Brett Godfrey, said "this is an exceptional result and we are delighted, given we are in start-up phase and facing intense competitive pressures, a failing currency and Gulf War level aviation fuel prices. We believe we will be well positioned to perform even better when market conditions improve".
Virgin Chairman, Richard Branson, hadn't anticipated Virgin Blue to be profitable within its first 3-4 years. The airline had its first profitable month in December 2000, just four months after its start-up.
Brett Godfrey said, "in simple terms, Virgin Blue is cash positive, despite the doomsday analysts and other cynics who predicted we wouldn't even get off the ground, let alone be flying long enough to announce our first financial results. We believe these results will surprise the financial community, disappoint the competition and entrench our position, matched only by our commitment to remain as a viable and sustainable alternative to the big guys."
Brett Godfrey continued, "Qantas has spent a lot of time whining about us 'whinging'. I imagine its shareholders will be the ones whinging to their overconfident management team that continues to fritter away Qantas's domestic profitability in a futile endeavour to squeeze us out of the sky. From a competitors standpoint, the sooner Qantas accepts our right to co-exist in the domestic market, the sooner equilibrium will be restored, ensuring sustainable low fares and stronger future domestic profitability for all.
This better than expected performance has led Richard to ask us to move on to the nation's busiest route, Sydney-Melbourne," he added.
Virgin Blue will begin flying between Australia's two largest cities with five return flights daily, and plans to increase frequency towards the end of the year with the arrival of more brand new Next Generation aircraft.
Brett Godfrey said, "Due to the tremendous demand and support we've received to date, we decided to launch ahead of schedule. As the industry knows, the availability of low fares on this key business route was becoming virtually impossible to find. We are entering this market to live up to our mantra of keeping the air fair".
Flights on the Sydney-Melbourne route will begin on July 15 with Fair Fares* available from $66 one way on the net and Fully Flexible Fares** at $189, near half of what the other carrier's charge for their walk-up fares.
"Business travellers can now choose whether they want to fly with Virgin Blue and control their travel costs or continue paying through the nose. I think Virgin Blue's Sydney-Melbourne service will be the CFO's dream ticket," concluded Brett Godfrey.
The news was delivered today as Virgin Blue proudly launched its new daily direct Sydney-Gold Coast service.
Virgin Blue operates the most modern, technologically advanced aircraft in Australia today, with an average age of less than 5 years, compared with Ansett's average fleet age of 11.7 years and Qantas with an average fleet age of 10.8 years. (Salomon Smith Barney 2001 Fleet handbook)
* "Fair Fares" are changeable for a fee 24 hours before the flight - Virgin Blue has no "use it or lose it" policy and all tickets are valid for 12 months.
** "Fully Flexible Fares" can be changed up to 1 hour before the flight and can also be transferred to a friend, relative or colleague (both free of charge).

|In response to Re: HELP!! MY BATHTUB LEAKS!!!
: Please help me. Recently, I noticed a stain on the ceiling tile in the basement below the master bathtub. Today I checked it and water was everywhere. The ceiling tile had fallen from the weight of the water. Good thing my furniture wasn't under it. I turned on the faucet to see what happens and without the shower on, only the water running into the bathtub, water seemed to drip from two small pipes leading up to the faucet. I didn't see any water coming from the drain. A few months ago, my husband replaced the diverter in the faucet, but it still leaks into the tub. Can you help me? Thank you very much in advance.

The ongoing dispute between the town and the owner and a potential developer of
the Arcade Building downtown will highlight tonight's Town Board meeting.
The building, at 81-83 Fall St., is now owned by Jack Pross of Michigan. It is primarily a commercial building, with a single apartment in the rear of the street level floor.
Pross wants to sell it to Basil Vlahos of Ithaca for conversion to up to eight apartments on the building's four floors.
The sale is contingent upon Vlahos getting approval for the residential use. He was granted a variance by the town Zoning Board of Appeals.
However, the town Planning Board opposed the variance.
The Town Board...voted in December to challenge the ZBA decision in court. [On the ground that] the residential use is inappropriate for downtown and would change
the character of the downtown, among other reasons.
They also claim there is not enough parking for an eight-unit building.
The town has hired attorney Steven Getman of Ovid to handle the legal challenge.

By SYLVIA NELSON
Since the time of Desert Lake and Victor, now both "ghost towns," Emery County has had many new citizens arrive to live and work, and new generations of the old families have come along. So where is-where were Desert Lake and Victor?
They are/were both located somewhere close to the wildlife and bird sanctuary that still uses the name Desert Lake, and south and east of Elmo. There are still people who live in Elmo whose grandparents were settlers there, and some still retain acreage settled on and farmed by these ancestors.
Some of the names gleaned from the pages of history are Winders, Wells, Thaynes, Powells, and Marsings, later, Mills, Davis, Blackburns, Drapers, Olsens, Pillings, and Lisonbees.
Reading history from "Emery County 1880-1980" written by Ada Willson of Elmo, a former resident of Desert Lake/Victor, says the settlement of Desert Lake began in 1885 "when a group of men commenced to work on the Cleveland water ditch through which water was conveyed from the Huntington Creek to the country lying eastward. They also commenced to make a reservoir" and called it Desert Lake. "A ditch was also made to convey water from the Washboard Basin."
Families claimed land parcels and settled in, building little log cabins and making dogouts, some living for years in the beds of the wagons they came in until more permanent homes could be built. Up until 1888, "Only a little farming was done...as there was no water for irrigation until the ditches were completed."
In Aug. 1896, the dam which had been constructed at such great exertion and expense by manual and horse labor, broke, quickly covering the flats, and some of the people narrowly escaped.
The first boy child born there was Charles William (Bill) Winder on June 28, 1889. Faithful midwives helped with the sick and child deliveries. Some were Sarah B. Pilling Marsing, Viola Wells, Ellen Pilling Winder, Jane Griffith Davis, Sarah Cowley, Maria Christensen, Sylvia Oviatt, Freda Thorderson, Deslina Johnson, Miriam Hansen, Emelia Jensen, Adelaide Oviatt Rasmussen, Emily Wells, and a Mrs. Noyes. Doctors who came to attend the sick were Dr. Fisk and Dr. Winters, (Price), Dr. Nixon (father of beloved teacher of North Emery High School, Grace Nixon Johansen, Castle Dale), and Dr. Hill (husband of another well loved teacher, Stella Leonard Hill, deceased of Huntington).
LDS meetings were held in a small school house erected about 1895. Parents hired and paid the school teachers at first; some were John Petersen, 1896, Vivian Douglas 1898, Joseph Guymon, Dame Leonard, C.T. Hurst in 1903, Mr. Candlin, M.J. Blackburn in 1905, Ruth McFadden, Florance Winder, Hyrum Southward, Sarah Kershaw, Ruth Wood, Florence Lemmon, Gomer Arnold, Mayme Monk, Alevia Nelson, Florence Jorgensen, George Jorgensen, Miss Palmer, Don D. Woodward, Mattie Cannon, Mrs. English, William Fitt, Elizabeth Johnson, and Iris Fitt. Then Rose Ann Richard Anderson as the final teacher. Teacher, Manassa Julian Blackburn was the Emery County Superintendent of Schools from 1912-14. There were as many as 45 students in about 1914. Teachers in Victor were Raymond Wells, Rose Reynolds, William Arnold, Glen Arnold, Dave Lamph, Myrtle Peterson, Eva Dean Crosby, Maude Amoniette Marsing, Lucille Gold, Iola Jensen, Thomas Johnson and others.
In 1908, the place of holding LDS meetings was changed from Desert Lake to the new townsite where they were held in the tithing granary and private residences until a new schoolhouse was built in 1910. Early in 1914, the name "Desert Lake Ward" was changed to "Victor Ward." In 1935, the Victor Ward was discontinued and the membership was transferred to the Elmo Ward.
The National Archives show a postoffice was established in Desert Lake in 1898 with Elvira Marsing as the first "postmistress'" followed by Caroline Mills then Eliza Draper. Later the mail was carried from Cleveland by Moses Tucker, John L. Thayne, Harvey Mills, Charlie Winders, and Henry Mills. Mail was carried by horses and buggies until Henry Mills bought a Model T Ford in 1914. In 1918, Thomas Wells began transporting the mail to Huntington.
LDS Ward records show a postal name given to Victor in 1912, with Vernon E. Johnson appointed postmaster. "Evidently at some time there were two separate towns...but only one church." Some years there were postoffices in both towns, but eventually mail was delivered to boxes on the side of the roads. Mentioned was a store operated by C. Winder, as well as a "postoffice" that was a mailing station in 1895, before the postoffices were established.
The Victor cemetery is located about five miles east of Elmo. Headstones can be seen by the "Wreath of Rocks." There are about 28 or more people buried there and four more buried "in Thayn Field between Desert Lake and Victor."
When Mrs. Willson wrote the history in 1980, there was still standing, a two story brick fireplace and chimney, the remains of the Charles Winder "old mansion." The home had remained as a landmark until vandals broke in (1970s) and burned it to the ground. The Victor schoolhouse built in 1910 was still standing in 1980 when the history was published.
In 1990, Jamie Jensen Howa, a teacher at Helper Junior High, was a national census taker. She was required to "take the census of Desert Lake and Victor" even though everyone in Emery Country knew that no one had lived out there for years. Petite Miss Jensen of Cleveland, just out of college at the time, told friends that she put on her dad's irrigation boots and stomped all over the flats and mud bogs, saw many signs of former habitations, and dreaded running into anything "living" such as snakes and rodents. Perhaps some other baffled census taker will be required to wander around there again in the future, wondering why.
Because of the private ownership and federal use, most of the land around the old towns of Desert Lake and Victor is inaccessible today. But when I have time to pull on my husband's irrigation boots, I want to give my good-old friend, Verl Winder of Elmo, a call to see if he'll let me wander on his ground. I want to see for myself the remnants of history, his beautiful fields, the places still touched by the warm desert sunshine, the parched ground waiting for rain, and feel the gusty winds that have called the many varieties of birds and wildlife for hundreds of years into the area. I'll take my little "opera" binoculars and my bird book. I'll also stop to read again, the marker on the road, placed in honor of the Winder family forefathers who settled that area. I think, if it's OK, I'll take my dog to warn me of any "living" creatures that I may not want to encounter.

NAGPRA Consultation/Documentation and Repatriation Grants Awarded
Thirty-four NAGPRA grants were awarded to 14 tribes and 14 museums. View the press release.
The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) was enacted on November 16, 1990, to address the rights of lineal descendants, Indian tribes, and Native Hawaiian organizations to Native American cultural items, including human remains, funerary objects, sacred objects, and objects of cultural patrimony. The Act assigned implementation responsibilities to the Secretary of the Interior. Staff support is provided by the National NAGPRA Program, including:
The National Park Service has compliance obligations for parks, separate from the National NAGPRA Program. National NAGPRA is the omnibus program, the constituent groups of which are all Federal agencies, museums that receive Federal funds, tribes and Native Hawaiian organizations and the public.

|In response to Re: Bathtub drain--PLEASE HELP--little more
: : : My bathtub drains VERY slow (1 shower approx. 6 hours) It is not clogged because it has done it before and all of a sudden work and then stop again. But here is the real question, The overflow cover with the switch like thing that suppose to open and close the drain it is just loose, I mean you push it down and goes right back up like it is not connected to anything. I took the cover off and pulled it up the pipe, (I have no idea what it suppose to look like so I am gonna explain) The plate with the toggle thing is connected to a rod that goes down to a spring and that is it, does there suppose to be a stopper or something on the end. If so is there anyway of getting that stopper out. I am so confused. Someone please help me. I dont even know what the pipes (diagram) would look like behind a bathtub. Thank you--Wade
: : Wade,
: Thank y'all so much , but I still dont understand. Mine is different than the diagram. Mine just has the rod and the spiral spring. I tried the wire with a hook and wiggled it around and didnt hook anything and bring it up. What else could I try. Why cant this be like the really old tubs that you just stuck the stopper in yourself when you didnt want it to drain. I was gonna just call a plumber but didnt really know how to explain so they could give me a estimated cost before they came out so I just got lucky and found this board. I hope y'all can give me some more info. And I really do appreciate y;all willing to help people for free. Thanks
Hj said it right. when you turn the handle on the lever it will raise or lower the stopper. when in the raised position grab the stopper and pull it out. It will have a lot of hair on it. clean it and then it should work normally.Hope this helps.Dale's Plumbing Service Inc LMP

The New Balance MR1400 v2 is a performance uptempo running shoe and road racing flat designed for distances from 5K up to the marathon.
The New Balance 1400 v2 is all about speed. This lightweight neutral racer packs a REVlite midsole for a quick and responsive ride while remaining cushioned for longer distances. Whether you're out running speedwork or toeing the line on race day, the 1400 v2 is ready to go.
Model Number:
Weight: 6.4 oz (size 9)
Stack Height: 23mm (Heel), 13mm (Forefoot)
Available Widths: D=Medium
How It Fits (based on width D)
Assembly: Imported
Comments: Very lightweight fast shoes! I'm usually pretty good at estimating my pace without checking my watch, but with these shoes hitting speeds is so effortless that I'm almost always going at a quicker rate. They are flexible enough that the 9mm drop does not impede fore-midfoot striking, but provide a snappy response. The ride is firm, as you may expect in a racing flat, but not overly so and they could be worn for long distances. Because of the odd shaped cutouts under the metatarsalgia (balls of feet) I did develop some blisters that I have not experienced with other shoes - even of a lower stack height - when doing runs over 10k distance. The outsole, however, is very durable, and should last a long time. I have used it on some light dirt roads and it provided great traction.
From: Aaron, CA, USA. September 23rd 2015
Comments: My new favorite and probably best shoe I have worn in a long while. They absolutely disappear on your feet and have the perfect combination of cushion and responsiveness. Completely agree with others in ordering a half size bigger.
From: Anonymous. September 2nd 2015
Comments: I love these shoes. After switching over from the Kinvara line, I was a bit nervous about the 9mm drop, and was disappointed with the rough interior of the upper. After a few runs (with lightweight socks) I had red, irritated areas on the outside of my small toes. BUT I kept with it, and after 30 or so miles the uppers softened considerably and no more irritation. I now consider the 1400v2's to be the most comfortable and best shoes I've ever run with.
From: Brian, Lee, MA, USA. July 9th 2015
Comments: I love this shoe. I ran a 5k race the first time I ran in them. Very comfortable. I replaced the insole with Dr. Scholl's Active and probably doubled the weight of them. I've had two foot surgeries on each foot (Hallux Rigidus) and so I'm very choosy about my footwear. I got the M1400v2 a half size larger than my normal size and the fit is excellent. The toe area isn't cramped at all.
From: Mike, Muskegon, MI, USA. June 28th 2015
Comments: What I like about this shoe: lightweight yet great cushioning (I've only taken them up to half-marathon distance and my legs felt great), durable outsole, breathable, forgiving for heel-strikers. What I don't like about this shoe: the massive blisters than I get on my pinkie toes (I don't have wide feet and I'm in the correct size). A slightly wider forefoot and this would be my go-to racing shoe.
From: Josh, Canada. May 11th 2015
Comments: I wanted to love this shoe. The NB 1400 v1 was the finest all around shoe I've ever run in - great for training, racing at all distances up to 26.2, and dirt trails. Sadly, version 2 falls short of the original in multiple respects. First - and let's get this out of the way early - this shoe is NOT lighter than v1. It's heavier. I weighed them side-by-side against my last pair of still-in-the-box, I'm-saving-these-for-Boston v1's. The v1 weighed in at 6.3 oz, the v2 at 6.5 oz. Both size 9D. And the v2 feels heavier on the foot. It's softer, less responsive, and just doesn't feel as fast as the v1. It also feels somehow chunkier in the midfoot, making it harder to cleanly forefoot strike. And while the mesh looks lighter, it is in fact less breathable than the prior version. And finally, v2 is both narrower and lower volume in the toe box. My little toe gets squeezed and I developed a hot spot on top of my big toe on a 13 miler this weekend. So, my unfortunate conclusion is that New Balance has essentially ruined what may have been the finest and most versatile neutral flat ever made.
From: Carl, Oakland, CA, USA. November 5th 2014
Comments: I love the 1400 version 1, but I have to agree that the version 2 has a really "scratchy" upper. I have about 25 miles on them and they still cause irritation on my toes even wearing socks. Stocking up on the version 1 for now.
From: Michael, AK, USA. May 27th 2014
Comments: I have to take back what I first said about this shoe. Originally I was pretty upset that I wasn't able to comfortably wear these shoes sockless like I do in the V1. The new upper material was just too scratchy on the tops of my feet and I always run sockless. With winter weather forcing me to wear socks like a normal person I found that sweet spot. After a few runs the upper has softened up considerably. The shoe feels firm in the forefoot, but nice and plush in the heel. I'm so happy I gave it a 2nd chance. This is now my go to trail/road shoe. The outsole compound is super sticky even in wet conditions, so even though there's no lugs or aggressive tread for trails, it still sticks really well.
From: Joe, Nashville, TN. 2/20/14
Comments: Marvelous shoe. This is a racing flat, and fits snug, similar to the Brooks T7 as a point of reference. I wear an 11.5 in most shoes, and wear a 12 or 12.5 in the MR1400 v2. The good news is the shoe is incredibly light....my 12.5's are still incredibly light. The feel is perfect for the road, and the shoe feels fast. New Balance has a winner here. This is my racing shoe for 2014.
From: li0scc0. Lincoln, NE USA. 2/4/14
Comments: The 1400 V2 does not necessarily fit smaller. Much of the fit issues are due to the new insole. Since I swap the insole out for a Superfeet Black, the V2 fits me in the same size as the V1. I'm pleased with the update and happy I opted for a pair of the V2 as opposed to a closeout V1.
From: Jeff, Scottsdale, AZ, USA
Comments: Upper is stiffer than original 1400 and the fit is snugger to forefoot. I wear the 1400 without socks and the upper fit on V2 is less comfortable because of stiffness causing rubbing on top of my foot. Right out of the box they felt incredibly light. A noticeable difference in weight from V1. It has a bit less of a cushioned feel to me when run back to back with the V1. Looks like there is less Revlite foam in the heel to save more weight. My opinion is buy all the V1 1400 you can. This update is not better than the original even though it's gotten lighter.
From: Joe, Nashville, TN
Comments: Nice shoes but don't get fooled by NB marketing. This shoes fit way smaller compare to the previous version. It might be 0.7oz lighter in size 9 but if you needed a size 9 in MR1400 you will certainly need a size 9.5 in MR1400v2, the comparison is biased and you might not shave that announced 0.7oz.

If any cake could be called refreshing, this would be the one. Rich but light, it loses absolutely nothing from the absence of white flour.
Leave a Review
Used all-purpose flour and removed the xanthum gum. Also doubled the curd and removed the guar gum -- well needed. I also used smitten kitchen's wedding cake swiss buttercream frosting to offset the sweetness of the curd and cake. This was maybe due to the all-purpose flour, but the baking time is off. Bake for 25 minutes if you want a moist cake. Also important: when putting the cakes, curd, frosting together, let the cakes cool and lather with curd while the curd is at least warm. If the curd is cool, it will pull up the cake. Then, let the curd completely cool and ice. This was especially true for me since I did a delicate buttercream for frosting.
WOW!!!!!!! Doubled to tripled lemon in ALL 3 areas, plus added some salt. I want it LEMONY!!!! That balanced out the 2 c of sugar in the cake (otherwise I'd reduce to 1.5 C) I substituted sifted - equal value, all purpose flour for the gluten free flour and gum. ICING - would double next time (did 1.5 x original recipe, barely covered) CURD - would definitely DOUBLE next time, as it was too little filling That is one easy cake to make and absolutely spectacular!!!!! Next time I will add long shredded coconut, which would just take it over the top. AMAZING!!!!!
Amazing Cake, I loved it though it was a bit sweet.
I substituted the brown rice flour mix and xantham gum for all-purpose flour. The density to me, is somewhat reminiscent of a pound cake, but with a coarser crumb. My children have requested this cake for birthdays 3 years in a row. Except I use the Lemon Meringue Buttercream recipe instead of the plain buttercream here, and my own lemon curd. The lemony flavor of the cake is mild enough, but still noticeable.
Best cake ever!!! I first made this cake 5 years ago for my husband's birthday. It was amazing! Since then I have not been allowed to serve any other kind of cake to my husband or daughter on their birthdays. We love the tart lemon flavour and the magnificent fluffiness. I've tried substituting cake flour, but it was not as good.
I thought this cake was good, but not exceptional. For me, cakes are all about the cake itself and I did not find the cake part of this recipe to be outstanding. It was just ok. It worked well with the lemon curd and the frosting, but was fairly bland and not as tender as I would have liked. Maybe that was because I left out the xanthan gum, which is not a common ingredient in my kitchen. The cake did store well and was enjoyed for several days in our household. I found the frosting recipe did not make quite enough. I will probably augment by at least a quarter next time. Also, for those who think the recipe is too complicated, I used store bought lemon curd (Dickinson's is a popular East Coast brand) that worked very well.
Very lemony -- too much for me. Made it with flour, so perhaps that made a difference...
In a word: unbelievable! My youngest daughter makes this for me for Mother's Day, and it is a true labor of love. I have Celiac Disease, so it is hard to find great recipes - this is one of them. It is not a quick, easy recipe, but the effort is well worth it, trust me!
With the number of people opting for gluten-free diets these days, I must say that this cake recipe has served me well. I have made it 3 times so far. The first time I followed the recipe exactly. It was excellent! The second time, I doubled the cake, filling and frosting to end up with a four layer 12 inch cake. It was spectacular! The third cake was also a 12 inch layer but this time I followed a reviewer's suggestion to substitute coconut oil instead of canola. It was better still!
Have made this cake twice now and it's been a hit both times. After reading the reviews before making it the first time, I made the following changes: Doubled the lemon curd recipe, with extra lemon zest for tartness. I only made half the amount of the frosting but it was plenty for the cake and definitely was not too sweet when combined with the cake and filling. I agree it is expensive to invest in the ingredients for the brown rice flour mix, but I keep them in the fridge and have used them for other gluten-free baking adventures. ALSO It would be nice if Epicurious would highlight the fact that the words "brown rice flour mix" actually link to another ingredient list and recipe. A friend of mine printed the recipe not realizing that there was a link embedded. Her cake did not turn out well, as she only used brown rice flour.

A music show that has taken over every television in America is American Idol. It is a nationwide phenomenon that has everyone glued to their television for an hour a couple nights a week watching performers make their way into the entertainment industry. The auditions for the chance to perform on the American Idol stage are hilarious and memorable. Some people get their 15 minutes of fame for singing horribly or acting strangely on the audition portion of the show. On the other hand, there are very famous and successful artists that were made on the show like the first season winner Kelly Clarkson. Here is a look back at American Idol history.
The first season started eight years ago in 2002, and was created by Simon Fuller. The show was mirrored after the British version called Pop Idol which has the same concept. Simon Fuller created the show to be an interactive, reality, talent show. We are introduced to millions of singers who are narrowed down to the top ten, and then we fall in love and vote for our favorite singer who becomes the American Idol. The show has consistently stayed at a number one slot because millions of Americans participate and watch the show. The first episodes of the program feature the auditions to narrow down the millions of people who believe they are the best. The show travels to different cities around the nation and pick finalists from each to travel to Hollywood. Once there, the hundreds of finalists are narrowed down even further to 25 people and then down to 10.
The initial choice of who is going to be eligible as an American Idol is determined by the judges. It is a panel of people who are well known in the entertainment industry and have produced or recorded their own albums. The most well known yet least liked judge is Simon Cowell. Next to him on the panel are Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul. Later on there was a fourth judge added who is still on the show, and her name is Kara DioGuardi. The only judge who has left the show is Paula Abdul, and currently Simon has expressed interest in leaving the show as well. Season 9 features guest judges and will include Ellen DeGeneres on the panel. They give their input on song choice, voice tone, and overall performance. When the performers are narrowed down to the final ten, the audience now decides who stays or leaves by voting. The judges simply give their input to help the audience decide.
Season 9 is currently airing on television now. They are in the process of auditions. Seasons 1 through 8 had amazing singers and winners. American Idol winners you have probably heard on Internet Radio and in your car or television are Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks, Jordin Sparks, David Cook, and Kris Allen. A lot of the finalists also go on to sign record deals and produce their albums as well. The show is fun to get involved with because you are part of the process of making someone a star. You get to know the singers and help them achieve their dreams to become a star, or in this case an American Idol.

Skip to comments.Rep. Frederica Wilson introduces resolution honoring Trayvon Martin
Posted on 02/06/2013 4:09:34 AM PST by 2ndDivisionVet
WASHINGTON A Florida congresswoman on Tuesday introduced a resolution honoring Trayvon Martin, the Florida teen whose slaying a year ago this month stirred national controversy.
Rep. Frederica Wilson, a South Florida Democrat, introduced a resolution honoring the life of Trayvon Martin, urging the repeal of Stand Your Ground laws, and calling on the United States government to address the crisis of racial profiling, according to a statement from her office.
Today, Trayvon Martin would have celebrated his 18th birthday, the statement read. We all know the tragic circumstances surrounding his murder: Trayvon was racially profiled, chased, made to fight for his life, and ultimately murdered. Yet we as a nation have yet to take substantive action to stop such a heartbreaking incident from happening again. Enough is enough: We as a nation have buried too many young black boys. Lets set Congress on course to address the underlying causes behind the crisis that Trayvons death symbolizes. Lets take action to stop racial profiling and give our people a chance to succeed.
George Zimmerman, the former neighborhood watch volunteer charged with second degree murder in the case, has pleaded not guilty, and is claiming self-defense...
(Excerpt) Read more at thegrio.com ...
I'll honor this thug, my dog needs to go outside anyway.
What is the title of this resolution? I like this one: " White People Should Lay Down and Die".
It is Black history month.
We should have biographical sketches commemorating the life of the child who tragically was struck down in the very flower of his budding success
Almost nothing of what the honorable Congresswoman said was true. Trayvon was the AGGRESSOR, not the victim, and he strode confidently into a confrontation that ended badly for him.
The difficulty seems to be that Trayvor was unaware, right up until the point of the barrel of the weapon was thrust against his chest, that the person he was banging up and down on the concrete sidewalk was armed.
It must have been an "Oh, $#!+!" moment for him.
Elected by tribal parasites, fomented hatred of whites by the State-Run-Media, while NO COMPLETE STORY has been produced LEGALLY, since the Trial has yet to take place? And we waste TAXPAYERS (not PARASITES) money for the time and government waste on this crap? How about deductions from Welfare handouts to fund her salary? Let's have those who are "Represented" actually finance her job....what payments are made by those who have NEVER contributed, but have always TAKEN, and are sending people to public office to get more handouts??????
That would be great, but those causes ain't what she thinks they are.
Happy Birfday Trashcan!
I celebrated by making a donation to the George Zimmerman Legal Defense Fund:
Is she getting the same news as everyone else? Even Sharpton and Jackson have abandoned this case.
Makes me want to hurl...making heroes out of these uncivilized parasite criminals.
Let her answer to God.
Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Is she the same one who said Oscar Grant was buried in Grant's Tomb?
How about "The Change of Venue" Resolution?
I'm sure some NBA or other sports talking heads will take care of that. Heck, maybe Hussein will take time from his busy schedule to do this.
Some politicians will put anything in their mouths for a vote no matter how putrid it may be. Their crack is votes and they will drop to their knees at the drop of a hat and Lewinsky whatever it takes for votes.
I agree with abolishing racial profiling.
Let's start with affirmative action, set asides, sanctuary cities, hate crime laws, welfare, head start, food stamps, Obama phones....
Yeah, I'll honer the criminal. Next time I go to the range I'll put his name on a silhouette. Ooh no! That woods be insensitive and offensive! So is a resolution honoring a stupid criminal. Fine, I'll just put "stupid thug parasite" on the target.
Why not? They gave our Communist-in-Chief the Nobel Peace prize just for being a community organizer.
"We as a nation have buried too many young black boys"
GOD is no respecter of persons, Frederica. Your "young black boys" suffered at their OWN hands for disobeying Him. Certainly, being the vagabonds of broken homes didn't help. Your "community" is responsible before God for its choices, period. Get scared, then call upon the name of The Lord! The thief on the cross did. You can't get any more guilty or condemned than that, and Jesus SAVED him. We are all without excuse.
Also, your comments about a citizen prior to his fair trial disqualify you for public office. Leave at once, lest you store up more wrath for yourself on thee day of God's wrath (those in authority will face a stricter judgment).
[Today, Trayvon Martin would have celebrated his 18th birthday,]
Nobody has more than one birthday but then there is always the walking dead.
'We as a nation have buried too many young black boys."
How many at the hands of other blacks??!! HMM?
Nobody wants to analyze that little data point.
Let's see his school records first — and his toxicology report — and his Facebook page.
When will they have a bronze statue of him with a bag of Skittles hanging out the pocket of his hoodie, a blunt stuck in his grillz, a can of Arizona tea in one hand, the other hand giving the one finger salute and his pants on the ground? Place it on the front lawn of the new elementary school named "@*%(#(*&" in honor of his FB page for all the little kids to look up to.
I can't wait for Gang Month. /sarcasm
Sheila Jackson Lee backing off makes it a trifecta.
The Grio? Why, pray tell, does NBC NEWS have an exclusively AA website? I'm afraid that some might find that offensive.Or insensitive. Or (dare I say it?) rayciss.
Honor his life? Oh, that's rich.
The "lean" variety of "purple drank" will be served at the commemoration.
The recipe involves Skittles(tm), and Arizona Iced Tea(tm) Watermelon Flavor, along with prescription cough syrup containing promethazine and codeine.
Since mister Trayvon Martin had two of the three unique ingredients, it would be appropriate to celebrate his life with the narcotic drink of his choice.
It ain't exactly new and they aren't alone.
Is the congresswoman saying that an honorable skittle is a dead skittle? /s
"It aint exactly new and they arent alone."
Yep. And what's up with the hats?
There is something wrong with that woman.
And I think it could be ..... DEMON POSSESSION
Or not
