The cat is out of the bag. We tried to keep all the delights of Newry city for ourselves, but the grapevine is buzzing with word of Ireland's newest city
Known as "The Gateway to the North", Newry sits snugly amidst the natural splendour of the Mourne Mountains and the Ring of Gullion. The city has blossomed since its official granting of city status in 2002 during Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee celebrations.
A heady mix of retro and modern gives this city a distinct edge, and Newry has firmly established itself as shopping heaven with locals on the island of Ireland.
Ireland's newest city it may be, but the past makes up an integral part of Newry's modern day character. And there's a lot of "past" on offer – after all, human settlement here dates back to 4,000BC.
In the 19th century, Newry was a bustling trading port, a place of merchants, markets and noisy city quays. A link to the city's industrious beginnings can be seen in its place names: Buttercrane Quay, Canal Boat Street and Custom House Quay.
A flourish of rejuvenation means many historically significant buildings are intact once more, each with a little tale of their own.

If there's one thing that Newry city can do like nowhere else, it's shopping. Shopping centres such as The Quays and The Buttercrane house all the major stores and eateries you could wish for. But a jaunt out from the centres into the smaller shops comes with its own rewards, too, with niche retailers offering something unique.
At Jack Murphy Jewellers, Gemma Murphy says the key to Newry's success is its reputation for traditional family-run businesses. "Newry is known for the quality of its customer service," she notes. "And that spreads through word-of-mouth all over Ireland and much further afield."
When you're all shopped out, Newry is the perfect base to explore some of Northern Ireland's most iconic sites, such as the Mourne Mountains and the Gullion Way. And just out from the city, the peace and serenity of Rostrevor Forest Walk is a refreshing change of scenery to the fast-paced thrum of Newry.
Shopping AND serenity? Newry, we salute you.

Jefferies & Co.'s Peter Misek today offers up a picture book totaling 155 pages showing the supply chain for various tech companies, including Apple (AAPL), with help from colleagues such as Mark Lipacis and Sundeep Bajikar, and summarizing how much revenue different suppliers get from Apple and others.
Misek urges investors to use the data to play news of supply relationships and "inflections" in the supply chain:
We will highlight a few of the ways investors can use this information: 1) short- term reaction to positive customer/supplier results (e.g., Apple guides strongly and Apple suppliers impacted that day); 2) longer-term inflections in supply chain newsflow (e.g., Apple's suppliers have been consistently exceeding expectations but then start just meeting expectations or missing); 3) identifying supply chain bottlenecks; and 4) identifying supply chain share shifts.
But there is very little text narrative in the report, mostly pages of diagrams such as the following, offered for Apple (click for larger image):
In addition, Misek offers the following table outlining the contribution of various component makers to individual Apple products, such as touch-screen controllers from Texas Instruments (TXN) in the iPhone, or MEMS accelerometer chips from ST Microelectronics (STM):
Apple shares today are down $10.50, or 2.3%, at $454.28, as the Street, and the media, mull the prospects for the newest iPhone models, introduced last week.

Serves 6
Like an Italian pot roast, this dish is enriched with sweet seasonal vegetables and red wine. It contrasts beautifully with polenta. Try to find a chuck roast, if you can; it's fattier and more flavorful than a bottom round roast.
With a wooden spoon, mix together 1⁄4 cup of the orange juice, 2 Tbs. garlic, 1 Tbs. tomato paste, and the sage. Add the meat and coat it all over with the marinade. Sprinkle evenly on all sides with the salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, heat the butter in a 10-inch, heavy sauté pan over medium-high heat. When melted, add the onions, celery, carrots, parsnips, and the remaining 1 Tbs. garlic and sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and the vegetables are starting to take on a hint of brown, about 10 minutes.
Stir in the remaining 1⁄4 cup of tomato paste and the flour, and cook until the flour is no longer visible, no more than 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and add the wine. Return the pan to the heat, and raise the heat to high. Stir until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, the remaining 1⁄2 cup orange juice, the stock, honey, and rosemary, and boil for 5 minutes. Use a potato masher to gently crush the tomatoes, and stir the sauce.
Pour the sauce over the meat in the slow cooker, cover, and cook on low until fork-tender, about 10 hours (ideally, turn the meat over halfway through to cook it evenly). Remove and discard the rosemary, then use a large spoon or ladle to skim the fat off the surface of the sauce. Transfer the meat to a cutting board and cut off and discard the kitchen twine. Cut into chunks (the meat will be too tender to slice) and return to the sauce. Spoon the meat and sauce over the polenta.

Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge, Denver, Colorado. December 5, 2012.
I love jazz because it is both challenging and exhilarating, and the endeavor of improvisation is the highest form of art. I met so many great musicians--including my two earliest heroes, Maynard Ferguson and Dizzy Gillespie--by attending concerts and being willing to treat them with the respect they deserve. The best show I ever attended was the Pat Metheny/Ornette Coleman Song X concert at Cornell University. The first jazz record I bought was an RCA compilation by Dizzy Gillespie. My advice to new listeners is to not be afraid to listen to something because you're not familiar with the artists or the band or the genre or anything - this is music that is best experienced through discovery.

Charles F. Duane
Deforest - Charles F. Duane April 14, 1927 - December 4, 2012
Charles' final wish: to die at home, as a gentleman and with dignity, was granted; surrounded by his family on Tuesday morning.
Charles "Chuck" enjoyed many hobbies including woodworking, designing and building radio-controlled airplanes, fishing, music, electronics, photography and reading. He served in the US Army medical corps from 1945 to 1948 and married his high school sweetheart, Delores M. Rector on February 10, 1946. Following service to his country, they moved back to Madison to raise their family of five children. He retired from Oscar Mayer Foods and enjoyed many memorable years on the family's hobby farm near South Leeds.
Charles was preceded in death by his parents, Ben and Lois Duane; his wife of 50 years, Delores; son-in-law, James Schultz; brothers, Bernard, Ivan and John; sisters, Sandy, Marge and Frances and a great granddaughter, Alexa.
Surviving loved ones include: daughter Pam Schultz of DeForest (special friend, Ted Breunig), son Derek (Emily) of Poynette, daughter Marie (Ted) Glover of Westby, daughter Carol (Joe) Stanek of McFarland, son Steven (special friend, Rita Erickson) of DeForest, 10 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, and his beloved friend Gloria Hustad of DeForest. Surviving siblings are sisters, Gloria Duane and Jackie Turvey of Madison and brother, David also of Madison.
The family wishes to thank Agrace HospiceCare for their recent support and also wishes to thank all their friends and neighbors for their kindness, support and understanding over the past several weeks.
Schroeder-Cress Funeral Home, 3325 E. Washington Ave., Madison is serving the family. A visitation will be held on Friday, December 7, 2012 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM with a memorial service at 1:00 PM. A luncheon will follow.

Did You Exercise Today???

Abby, hope the foot gets better! :S I broke and dislocated my ankle very badly about 4.5 years ago, and it still reeks havoc on any exercise I attempt to do. Grrr. It was exercising that did it in the first place (playing netball, slipped over on a wet court!
) But anyway..... I understand the frustration of having some sort of foot related injury!
Today.....I had to work late, and couldn't get to the gym, so I decided I was going to attempt to jog (for the first time in maybe forever!)
I'm a nanny, so I got the 3 year old I look after onto her bike, and she cycled and I jogged/power walked/died alongside her. She goes at just my pace..... I managed to do 5km (3.1 miles) in 40 mins and 35 seconds, which could have possibly been a bit shorter as I had to wait for said 3 y.o to catch up a lot of the time.... lol. Not sure if this is a good time (obviously about 6 hundred other joggers and runners overtook me along the way, but still....) for me, as I am incredibly unfit at the moment....
Can really feel it in my ankle though now....I even wore my support brace for it, and it still hurts, but never mind....it's still exercise.

Lenovo Introduces Four New Windows 8 Convertibles

Sender E-mail
IdeaTab Lynx
Lenovo unveiled its IdeaPad Yoga 11, IdeaPad Yoga 13, IdeaTab Lynx and ThinkPad Twist
Windows 8 will be here in a little over two weeks, and Lenovo is prepared to show off its new spread of devices that will run Microsoft's newest operating system.
Today, Lenovo unveiled its IdeaPad Yoga 11, IdeaPad Yoga 13, ThinkPad Twist and IdeaTab Lynx -- all
Windows 8-powered convertibles
. Lenovo is betting big that customers will want convertibles over traditional laptops or tablets, since convertibles combine the best of both worlds.
IdeaPad Yoga 11
The IdeaPad Yoga 11 is an 11.6-inch Windows RT device with a display that flips 360 degrees backwards, transforming the laptop into a tablet with a stand, if needed. Under the hood, the Yoga 11 is packing a NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor, 2GB of RAM, up to 64GB of storage, a 1366x768 display resolution, a 720p webcam, two USB 2.0 ports, an HDMI port, a card reader, 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.0.
You can pick up a Yoga 11 starting at $799. It's available in Silver Gray and Clementine Orange.
IdeaPad Yoga 13
The IdeaPad Yoga 13, like the Yoga 11, flips 360 backwards to turn the laptop into a tablet-like device. It also comes in Silver Gray and Clementine Orange, but most other specs are completely different. For starters, the Yoga 13 has a 13.3-inch display and runs Windows 8. It also has Intel Core i5 and i7 processors with Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics, up to 8GB of RAM, up to 256GB of solid-state storage, a 1600x900 resolution, a 720p webcam, USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports, an HDMI port, a card reader, 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.0.
The Yoga 13's price will start at $1,099.
ThinkPad Twist
Twist does exactly what the name indicates -- the display flips down and twists to cover the keyboard, turning the laptop into a tablet. It has a 12.5-inch display, 1366x768 resolution, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processors with Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics, up to 8GB of RAM, a 720p webcam, two USB 3.0 ports, 802.11n, Bluetooth 4.0, Gigabit Ethernet, Mini DisplayPort, Mini HDMI port and three storage options: 320GB HDD, 500GB HDD or 128GB SDD.
The Twist starts at $849.
IdeaTab Lynx
The IdeaTab Lynx is basically a tablet with optional keyboard dock, turning the device into a laptop. The display is 11.6 inches and it features a Clover Trail-based Intel Atom Z2760 processor, 2GB of DDR2, 32GB/64GB storage options, 2 MP front-facing camera, a 1366x768 resolution, Micro USB 2.0 port, Micro HDMI port, microSD card slot, 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.0.
The starting price for the Lynx is $599 for the tablet alone, but adding the keyboard dock will cost an additional $149.

Not untypically, in a pub, the "Horn and Trumpet" in Bewdley, Worcestershire.
I'd taken a long walk through the woods from home, and nipped in for a pint of cider and a sandwich. By way of business I knew some of those killed; not bosom buddies but I thought of them as colleagues. We knew one of the waitresses in the restaurant quite well; I think she copped it.
It was a quiet old walk back home.

Who is eligible?
To be eligible, the student must:
- Be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen.
- Be enrolled in a program leading to a degree, certificate, or diploma; full-time students are given priority.

- Not have defaulted on a student loan.
- Not be convicted for the sale of illegal drugs while receiving federal financial aid.
How Is the Award Determined?

Contact the financial aid administrator at the school you attend or plan to attend.

I'm still pretty much a beginner in the turkey hunting woods as I've only been hunting for the last 4-5 years. Lately, I've got the crazy idea to try and make my own custom friction call, but I need a little bit of help before I begin.
First off, I wanted to know what's the best adhesive to use to set your slate into the call?
Second, I wanted to know what's the purpose of the soundboard. I know it's supposed to add to the quality of sound but does the slate need to be touching the soundboard or not?
And lastly, I keep referring to slate as my call surface but I'm not sure if that's what I want to go with. I've heard that copper is a pretty good surface to use but I've never seen a copper call let alone scratched on one. Is this a good surface for a call?
I also haven't decided on what wood to use yet. I've heard cocobolo is a good wood to use and it's a beautiful wood as well. Any advise would be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

With so many great reviews I thought I would give this a try. First off if you're used to suds and lathering in a scrub this one doesn't have it at all. So don't expect that or get this if you're used to having that.
Again maybe it's just my preference but I didn't care for this product because without those suds/lather I didn't feel clean after using it.

By Patsy R. Brumfield/NEMS Daily Journal
HATTIESBURG – Stuart Rial said Sunday night's tornado nearly got him.
"I was looking at it in my rear-view mirror," the 19-year-old Tupelo man recalled Monday about his experience with a massive storm system that barreled across south Mississippi.
The powerful twister tore a path across at least three counties – Forrest, Lamar and Marion – injuring more than 60 people, but residents marveled that no one died.
Officials said circumstances converged to ensure no lives were lost in what should have been a deadly storm: Sirens and TV broadcasts gave people as much as 30 minutes of warning; the University of Southern Mississippi was emptier than usual because of Mardi Gras; and most businesses were either closed or quiet because it was a Sunday.
Forecasters were able to closely track where the storm was headed and had confirmed reports from people on the ground and from radar, making it easier to give warning, said weather service meteorologist Chad Entremont.
Bennett Forrest of Tupelo and his friends took shelter in his apartment bathroom after text warnings from the University of Southern Mississippi.
Moments before, the 20-year-old Tupelo High School graduate said, "The sky was green, it made me think of 'The Wizard of Oz.'"
Forrest said his immediate neighborhood was spared heavy damage but that much of town looks like a mess with trees and construction debris everywhere.
The USM campus, where he and Rial are theater majors, was off-limits as emergency workers dealt with the storm's destruction.
"We could hear the rumble, far away," Forrest said about the few minutes before they took shelter. "Then we could see it over the trees and the debris being blown up."
Later, as they ventured out to see what had happened, the city was largely in darkness without street or traffic lights.
"It was very eerie," Forrest said.
Gov. Phil Bryant said the twister carved a path of destruction roughly 75 miles long, although National Weather Service officials have not yet determined the tornado's exact path or how long it was on the ground. Early indications show it was an EF3 tornado with wind speeds reaching 145 miles per hour in parts of Hattiesburg.
It touched down on Hardy Street, a principal Hattiesburg thoroughfare that runs along the south end of the USM campus.
On the campus, trees were snapped in half around the heavily damaged Alumni House, where part of the roof was ripped away. Windows in a nearby building were blown out, and heavy equipment worked to clear streets nearby in a heavy rain after the worst of the weather had passed.
The university was under a state of emergency and told people to stay away from campus until further notice.
Robert St. John, who writes a Sunday food column for the Daily Journal, posted on his Facebook page that the twister passed about 200 feet behind his restaurant.
"No major damage other than a few windows blown out, holes in the roof, a/c units turned over etc.," he wrote, showing a photo of a heavily damaged house behind the restaurant. "Our neighbors weren't so lucky."
USM students and staff are on Mardi Gras break and aren't expected back on campus until Wednesday.
Rial credits his friends' suggestion to play basketball with saving his life.
"I don't even play basketball," the THS graduate said. "But it saved me. Otherwise, I would have been home in a neighborhood that's flat today."
The son of Cliff and Sherry Rial said he and friends were driving toward campus when they saw the tornado.
When they reached the workout center, the doors were locked, and they headed toward a fraternity house.
That's when Rial said he saw the storm behind him.
"At first, we just saw electricity going up through it, like it had hit power lines," Rial said. "It was terrifying."
The sheer scope of the damage made it difficult to do a full assessment. Some 50 roads were closed at one point because of felled trees, downed power lines and debris.
About 200 homes and mobile homes were damaged or destroyed, with another 100 apartments left uninhabitable. Several thousand remained without power, though the electricity was expected to be restored to most customers later Monday, Bryant said.
Oak Grove High School near Hattiesburg was hit and its athletics facilities severely damaged.
While more tornadoes were not in the forecast, heavy rain was expected into today. And that could make cleanup efforts even more difficult, said National Weather Service meteorologist Brad Bryant in Jackson.

Thanks for the input. I actually have a spare 10 gal tank sitting in the trunk (got it a couple of days ago off craigslist for $20 with everything I think including a small overflow filter). I have powerheads too. I have a marineland maxi-jet pro 1200 (bought new, not used yet). It has a water circulator function but the flow is something along the lines of 1300 gallons per hour (would be like a hurricane in a 10 gal I would think). I also got a lot of 4 power heads off ebay along with 2 biowheel filters (emperor 280 and emperor 400). So far as I can tell (brief testing) they all work. The impeller was frozen solid on the emperor 280 but I managed to work it free (a bunch of charcoal was jammed in there and it seems to work now). The smallest power head is a maxi-jet (the old non pro) 500 so 500 liters per hour. The biggest is a aqua clear ph802 (400 gph, 170 gph in reverse).
Exactly how much flow do I want over them. The smallest powerhead or maybe the smaller biowheel (smaller bio wheel is 280 gph but it would be spread out by the filter)? The one that came with the tank is pretty tiny. How sticky are the eggs as far as staying in place?
they're quite sticky, you're not going to blow them off of anything once you get them attached. The aquaclear filter I used has between 33-100 gph flow rate depending on how you set it... don't remember if I had mine set for low or high.300 gallon mega tank: sailfin pleco, clown loaches, silver dollars, roseline sharks, congo tetras, new world cichlids
125 gallon office tank: Africian cichlids, synodontis catfih
75 gallon community tank: bolivian rams, black skirt tetras, dwarf neon rainbowfish, corys, harlequin rasboras, otos, bristlenose and bulldog plecos, assassin snails, various shrimp
60 gallon goldfish tank: fancy goldfish

Thanks for the info on them sticking. I read that you can sometimes induce by doing cold water changes (a few degrees colder than the tank, I hop that will not be bad for the other fish). It is supposed to simulate the rainy season. I guess I'll give that a try for a couple of days. Hopefully they are layed on something removable so I can put then in another tank with heavy water flow.

I recently started collecting vintage stuff and have a few figures sans weapons and accessories. In my limited experience, ebay seems to have either very few lots with groups of accessories or people selling stuff like the Jawa blaster for $5.
Does anyone know of a good on-line or mail-away retailer that sells vintage or repro vintage accessories?

About the Practice
Practice Philosophy
Since how we look has a direct effect on how we feel, our practice holds a firm belief in the power of personal appearance to positively affect our patients' lives. Enhancing areas of concern with cosmetic procedures, whether surgical or non-surgical, can have a dramatic impact on one's self-esteem and confidence, affecting both personal and professional areas of one's life. Our goal is to provide natural outcomes. We don't want our patients to look "different", but rather rejuvenated and refreshed.

By Paul Newberry
AP Sports Writer
ATHENS, Ga. – Georgia is eager to get a couple of days off at the Southeastern Conference tournament.
With one more win, the Bulldogs will have their spot in the quarterfinals.
Kenny Gaines scored 14 points and Georgia overcame a sluggish start to keep its hold on third place in the SEC, routing Mississippi State 66-45 Wednesday night.
The top four SEC teams receive a bye through the first two rounds of the tourney, which will be held next week in Atlanta. Georgia leads Tennessee and Arkansas by a game and can clinch third place with a win Saturday at LSU, the regular-season finale.
"That's very important," Gaines said. "If you get to skip those first two days, you have more time to mentally rest and physically rest."
Georgia (17-12, 11-6 SEC) still hopes to make a run at the NCAAs, though a middling RPI ranking likely means it would have to knock off LSU and at least beat either No. 1 Florida or No. 25 Kentucky in the SEC tournament.
Coach Mark Fox doesn't want his team thinking too far ahead.
"This group has to stay in the moment," he said. "They can't handle much more than that."
To drive that point home, Fox called a timeout with his team up by 19 points after Gaines got a little too flashy on a drive to the basket, passing up an easy shot to flip the ball back to Nemanja Djurisic for a layup.
"Now that we've had some success, we need to know how to handle success," Fox said. "That was just a little reminder."
Showboating aside, Gaines has led Georgia's resurgence, averaging 18.3 points over the last six games while hitting more than 50 percent from 3-point range.
Earlier in the season, Fox felt the sophomore guard was trying too hard to replace Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Georgia's leading scorer from a year ago who now plays in the NBA.
"He felt like he needed to be Kentavious," Fox said. "That's not who he is. He needed to be Kenny."
Taking control early
Georgia trailed 16-8 in the early going but took control before the first half was done, leading 37-24 at the break.
Last-place Mississippi State (13-17, 3-14) is closing out another dismal year under second-year coach Rick Ray, who went 10-22 in his debut season. His team shot just 34 percent (17 of 50) and had no one in double figures.
Georgia swept the season series, winning the two meetings by a combined 41 points.
"The big thing for us right now is that we don't handle adversity very well and we're not very skilled offensively," Ray said.
Mississippi State had just four assists and missed all 15 of its attempts from beyond the arc.
"If you don't have an offensively skilled team," Ray said, "you need to be tough on defense."
In a repeat of the teams' first game at Starkville, Georgia got off to a rough start before turning things around with its superior depth, closing out the first half on a 29-8 run. The home team knocked down seven straight shots after beginning 2-of-13 from the field.
Mississippi State ended the half with an especially brutal stretch.
With 14 seconds left on the shot clock, I.J. Ready fouled Charles Mann far away from the basket. After Mann sank both free throws, Mississippi State tried to run the clock down as much as possible before getting off a final shot. But Trivante Bloodman turned the ball over driving toward the basket, andGeorgia took off the other way with 5 seconds left — enough time for Mann to flip a lob pass to Gaines for a thunderous dunk just before the buzzer.
Mann and Gaines chest-bumped before Georgia ran off the court to a raucous ovation from the sparse crowd, up comfortably by 13.
When the teams met three weeks ago, Georgia fell behind by 14 points in the first half before rallying to win 75-55 — its biggest road triumph in the past three seasons.
Marcus Thornton added 13 points and Mann had 10. In all, 10 players scored for Georgia.
Roquez Johnson and Craig Sword led Mississippi State with 9 points.
"We have to play tough for the whole game," Johnson said. "That has to change for us to improve in the future."

The site is well known as the former location for the Kapok Tree Inn restaurant and the Pioneer City theme park. The nature center, which opened on March 14, 2008, was built using funds from the 2000 Safe Parks and Land Preservation Bond Referendum.
As recently as a century ago this elevated oak hammock was part of a series of islands surrounded by Everglades marshes. Long Key encompasses some of the most significant archaeological, historical, and ecological resources in the county, as the area was inhabited by the ancient Tequestas and the more modern Seminoles.
Long Key's magnificent live oak hammock has served as an important habitat for wildlife and is one of the largest remaining stands of upland hardwood forest in Broward. Typical trees found in the hardwood forest include live oak, red bay, paradise tree, strangler fig, and the occasional cabbage palm and gumbo limbo. Among the diverse plants you can see are many species of epiphytic bromeliads and ferns that abundantly line the limbs of the oaks.
Additional features include a 14-acre orange grove, a remnant of a once-active citrus industry; restored wetland marshes, which have become a haven for a variety of migratory and resident birds; several man-made ponds and canals; and an active bird roost/rookery. The site is also a refuge for butterflies and a variety of mammals, including foxes and bobcats. The property's Baez House is a restored 1940s farmhouse that received a 2007 award from the Broward County Historical Commission, which recommended that the house be designated an Archaeological and Historical Cultural Resource Site. (Group tours are available by reservation; call the park for details.)
The centerpiece of the park is the 18,050-square-foot nature center building, which includes an assembly hall (the Oak Hammock Hall, available for rentals), an exhibit hall, a classroom (the Discovery Room), a small theater, offices, a catering kitchen, and restrooms. A bridge spanning an educational pond connects the nature center to nature trails totaling about three-quarters of a mile, and an equestrian trail runs through the site and connects with the Davie Multipurpose Trail that runs along the perimeter.
The nature center's grounds include a major Public Art and Designinstallation by artist Lorna Jordan called Island Garden. One of the artist's concerns is the idea of the garden as a framework for enhancing habitat, and in that context this work heightens the visitor's experience of the nature center's topography. Pathway mosaics make reference to the sedimentary layers that have created the aquifer's layers of limestone, sand, and sandstone; pools and planters reveal the interaction between water and plants; and benches and a trellis system provide a contemplative place to experience shade and the coolness of water.
For more information, call Long Key at 954-357-8797.

When a week's worth of events proved popular with the public, the organizers of Bicycle Week opted to expand it to Bicycle Month in 2008. Florida Bicycle Month 2012, returning after a two-year hiatus, now includes more than 30 events and activities from March 1 through 31. The purposes of this special month are to promote bicycle safety and education; to provide leisure and recreational bicycling opportunities for all ages and abilities; and to offer competitive/challenging cycling opportunities throughout Broward County within both the public and the private sectors.
Bicycle Month 2012 is made possible by Broward County, along with Broward Cycle, the Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization, CycleMobility, the Florida Department of Transportation, the Florida Velodrome Association, Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital, the South Florida Bike Coalition, and South Florida Commuter Services. Together these organizations have committed to hosting bicycle rodeos, recreational rides, bike-to-work challenges, nature bike hikes, lunchtime rides, bicycle scavenger hunts, and tandem rides for the visually impaired. Times, fees, locations, and registration requirements vary. Our Website features a calendar detailing the month's activities.
Water is an integral component of the quality of life to both residents and visitors alike in Broward County. This month two major events in parks attest to the importance water holds in our lives, in terms of both recreation and daily life.
The county's largest environmental event, the 35th Annual Waterway Cleanup, returns to Broward from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, March 10. The event is organized by the Marine Industries Association of South Florida (MIASF) in cooperation with civil, public, and private partners to promote environmental awareness and responsibility. This year nearly two dozen sites will participate, including the Anne Kolb Nature Center in Hollywood, Franklin Park and Reverend Samuel Delevoe Park in Fort Lauderdale, and Secret Woods Nature Center in Dania Beach.
Last year the event attracted 1,180 volunteers to work at waterfront locations and on floating sites on the Intracoastal Waterway. Approximately 18.6 tons of trash and debris was collected from the county's roughly 300 miles of navigable waterways, canals, and shorelines.
Participants should wear clothes that they don't mind getting dirty, as well as gloves and shoes. Sunscreen, sunglasses, hats, and drinking water are also recommended. For more information, call MIASF at 954-524-2733, visit www.waterwaycleanup.com, or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. Anne Kolb is accessible via Broward County Transit Route #12; Franklin via Routes #11, #36, and #40; Delevoe via Routes #11 and #40; and Secret Woods via Route #6.
The second event that will focus on water quality and conservation is Water Matters Day, also scheduled for Saturday, March 10, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Tree Tops Park in Davie. Now in its 10th year – the theme is "A Decade of Difference" – the county's signature water event educates residents on what they can do to protect our drinking-water supplies. Among the relevant topics covered will be water conservation techniques, smart irrigation, and native landscaping.
This family-oriented event features live music (environmental folk singer Grant Livingtston), approximately 40 educational booths and exhibits, giveaways (including native plants), hands-on activities, children's workshops, and more. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. The Broward County Board of County Commissioners, Broward Workshop, the School Board of Broward County, and the South Florida Water Management District partner for the event.
Admission to Water Matters Day is free, although Tree Tops' regular weekend and holiday gate entrance fee of $1.50/person (children 5 and under free) will be in effect. For more information, visit www.broward.org/watermatters.
Don't let your spring-breaker squander all his or her time when there are other possibilities out there. For horse enthusiasts, for example, there's the Spring Break Equestrian Camp at the stables at Tradewinds Park in Coconut Creek. The camp, for ages 9 to 16, runs from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily from Monday, March 12 through Thursday, March 15, and the cost is $75 per day.
Instruction includes breeds and colors of horses; anatomy of the horse; appropriate riding equipment, tack, and general care of the horse in the show ring and on the trails; nutrition and feeding; and horse care – routine, preventive, and therapeutic maintenance. Other activities include videos, indoor/outdoor games, and farm activities. Children must provide their own lunches and snacks. Long pants and closed-toe shoes are required, and participants should also bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a towel. Preregistration is required, and fees must be paid and a release and waiver of liability completed and signed at the time of registration. For more information, call Tradewinds at 954-357-8870 or the park's stables at 954-357-8720.
Or you could take your kid(s) on a camping trip without going far from home. The School's Out – Camp Out! Special at Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach, which also runs March 12-15, offers a special rate of $17.50 per campsite per night for up to four campers. Add up to two more campers for $3 each per night. You can even bring up to two pets for $1 each per night.
You don't even have to bring a tent – the park's Rent-a-Tent campground has platform tents and tepees already set up and ready to move into. Each site has water, electricity, a picnic table, a grill, and a fire ring. Other park amenities nearby include mountain bike trails, a marina with boat rentals, lakes for fishing, and Ski Rixen USA cable water-skiing. For more information, call Quiet Waters at 954-357-5100.
The Lunch-and-Learn Nature Series lecture program that has been so popular at the Anne Kolb Nature Center in Hollywood concludes this month with a presentation from noon to 2 p.m. on Friday, March 9. The topic is "Ensuring the Survival of Florida's Coral Reefs: Historical Perspectives and Forecasting the Future," and the guest lecturer is Abby Reneger, a marine biologist with the National Coral Reef Institute.
Preregistration is required a week prior to the event. A $5 donation to the Friends of the Anne Kolb Nature Center volunteer group gets you in and gets you lunch. For more information, call Anne Kolbat 954-357-5161. The nature center is accessible via Broward County TransitRoute #12.
Also drawing to a close this month: the Propagation Lecture series at Secret Woods Nature Center in Dania Beach.

For more information, call Secret Woods at 954-357-8884. The nature center is accessible via Broward County Transit Route #6.
Parks and Recreation offers three opportunities to find out more about the insect world this month. From 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, March 24, Secret Woods Nature Center in Dania Beach will conduct Insectigations, a look at our six-legged friends (and sometimes enemies) presented by the University of Florida's Paul Bardunias, who will bring in some of his favorite creatures for participants to observe. The program is free and for all ages.
The next day, Sunday, March 25, from noon to 12:30 p.m., also at Secret Woods, Delightful Flight will introduce you to some of South Florida's butterflies and share information on what to plant to attract them. The fee is $1.50 per person.
That still leaves you time to get over to Long Key Natural Area & Nature Center on Sunday, March 25, for a 2 p.m. presentation called Bugged Beyond Belief, featuring entomologist, photographer, and composer John Lampkin. He'll use his new book of insect macrophotography as a starting point for an educational, visually artistic, and entertaining look at the bugs in our back yards. Lampkin has been the compiler for the North American Butterfly Association's counts in Rockland County, New York, for the past decade, and coincidentally, he has written a woodwind quartet, Insects: A Musical Entomology in Six Legs, that won the grand prize at the 2001 Composers Guild international competition. The program is free.

Visiting kings and queens will all claim land for their respective countries, and the festival's makeshift village will be packed with artisans and crafts people selling and demonstrating their wares, not to mention rides, nearly a dozen stages featuring continuous entertainment, and hearty food and drink of the time.
The festival, now in its final days, runs from 10 a.m. to sunset on Saturdays and Sundays through March 11. Admission is $20 for ages 12 and up, $7 for ages 6 to 11, and free for ages 5 and under.

When Meggan Morency, a high school junior who loved horseback riding, was fatally injured in an equestrian jumping accident on February 13, 2003, a young life was cut short. That life is now commemorated annually with the Meggan Morency Ride-a-Thon, which raises money for scholarships in the equine-assisted therapeutic riding program sponsored by Horses and the Handicapped. This year the event, now in its ninth year, will take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 3 at Tradewinds Park in Coconut Creek.

I have real concerns about the market for lab pups in general and especially now that we have the economy in turmoil. But I've been researching and preparing for three years to breed a bitch that I own and I finally pulled the trigger and had her bred last Saturday. This is to produce a pup for myself and for one of my friends. I have a couple more spoken for, as well. So I decided to take my chances and hope that I can get them all into good, working homes. We'll know in a few months if I made the right decision.

I haven't seen a decrease in (high quality) inquiries, and admit, I'm surprised. I bred 2 girls ~4 wks ago and a fairly high percentage of folks who were on my list several months ago are still interested.
As people say - the purchase price of a puppy is cheap - the future training, trialing/testing, vet bills, etc are the expensive part......
I think if the economy tanks the Professional trainers are going to take big hit - I know my husband and I discussed it and at least 1 dog will come home if he has too, but we are hopeful that will not happen. Not to mention running trials will be cut way back....

I agree. I cannot imagine doing a breeding with the economy the way it is. But I hope people are successful in what they choose to do.
I also agree with Lainee about the professional trainer. I don't think the "high end" client will be affected as they appear, at least from my perspective, to have plenty of cash in most cases to make it through the downturn. But for people who have to budget for their training money, I think it will be one of the first things to go...
I have transitioned into focusing on obedience and boarding and we had a very busy September, which is normally one of my three slowest months (sep/jan/feb) so I was excited. But now the phone has hardly rung compared to normal for the last week. I'm just glad September was good!

The official live-action trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 isn't supposed to hit until Sunday. But it's started popping up on website ads late Friday night so we grabbed a copy.
In it we see Jonah Hill of Superbad fame and is that Sam Worthington of Avatar fame kicking ass as video game soldiers in the upcoming Activision shooter. Apparently there is still a solider in all of us.
I'm thinking there's a longer version of this ad set to run on Sunday somewhere, either the site or maybe on TV. I mean AC/DC's Shoot To Thrill barely gets rolling in this version. Also, the previews for this ad seem to hint that there might be a bit more... I don't know, story arc, to the full ad.
So yes, this is sort of an ad for an ad. Which is kinda like a count down for a count down, which I also love.
Update: The full-length version arrived yesterday, containing everything in the 30 second early-bird trailer, and more. It's been swapped in above.

Idaho Women Get Big Road Win
In perhaps its best defensive effort of the season, the Idaho women's basketball team blocked 13 shots, allowed just 45 points, held UTSA to 27 percent shooting and grabbed 22 more rebounds than the Roadrunners in a dominating 64-45 Western Athletic Conference win Saturday night.
The win is Idaho's third straight and fourth WAC road win in as many tries, and the Vandals improve to 9-11 overall and 6-3 in the WAC. UTSA falls to 11-9 on the year and 5-4 in the WAC.
Four Idaho players scored in double figures, including 13 apiece from Christina Salvatore, Connie Ballestero and Jessica Graham. Salvatore and Graham each made three 3-pointers, and Ballestero added two. Alyssa Charlston had 11 points, six rebounds and five of Idaho's blocks, and she went 5-of-10 from the field. Ali Forde had five blocks as well and added 12 rebounds and four points.
"This was nothing but a total team effort, defensively and offensively, and I couldn't be prouder of them," Idaho coach Jon Newlee said. "UTSA has been playing pretty good lately, four wins in a row heading into tonight including knocking off (first-place) Seattle U."
Idaho shot 42.3 percent from the field in the game, and 50 percent, 10-for-20, from long range. On the other end, UTSA made only 16 of its 59 shots, and went 5-of-19 (26.3 percent) from 3-point range. The 45 points scored by UTSA are the fewest for a Vandal opponent this season and its field goal percentage was the second lowest, while Idaho's 13 blocks are the most for the team this year. Idaho owned a 49-27 rebounding advantage, and outscored UTSA 9-4 in second-chance points.
"Our posts did a great job of defending without fouling," Newlee said. "We did a great job of interior defense tonight, and it was huge for us."
Graham, who had made just two 3-pointers all season entering Saturday, went 3-for-4 from long range. Ballestero's 2-for-2 3-point performance gives her five consecutive made 3s in Idaho's last two games, as she went 3-for-3 on Thursday at Texas State.
"I guess their theory was leave Ali and Jess alone, and Jess made them pay tonight," Newlee said of Graham. "She's confident out there for sure, and she if knows she is she's wide open out there she's got the green light."
Idaho scored the first five points of the game and didn't trail until UTSA pulled ahead 16-15 with 9:17 left in the first half. That lead was short lived, and turned out to be the sole Roadrunner advantage of the game. On the very next possession Ballestero made her first 3-pointer to put Idaho back on top. The teams were tied at 20-20 for more than three minutes when Idaho went on a 9-0 run towards the end of the half. UTSA got the last bucket of the period to go into the break trailing 29-22.
The Roadrunners cut Idaho's lead to as little as five points early in the second half, but a Graham free throw with 13:30 to play gave Idaho a 10 point lead, and the Vandals led by double figures the rest of the way. That lead grew for the remainder of the game, and got to as many as 21 with just more than a minute left.
"It was going to be a war, that's what UTSA wants it to be," Newlee said. "Our kids did a great job of keeping their composure as our lead grew. We buckled down defensively and did what we needed to do. We defended and rebounded extremely well."
Idaho is on the road again next week as it visits Utah State on Jan. 31 and San Jose State on Feb. 1 before returning home to host New Mexico State on Nov. 7 and Denver on Nov. 9.

text: I've asked you twice now what your definition of a "job done right" is in A-stan. OK, I'll go first. I think that the Taliban are a bunch of dim bulbs who can be bought off (and as I understand it, that's what we've been trying to do since the success of the Iraqi surge). Their time has come and gone. While Afghanistan is still a third world s-hole, I don't think that the people want, or would accept, any type of rule by them or their significant representation in any govt. I think it is the Arab jihadists that are at the root of the problem and they can't be bought off. Instead they should be killed and starved of funding and support (aka The Global War on Terror). I think pouring a bunch of troops into A-Stan is a recipe for disaster. I think incursion into Pakistan would be a disaster. I'm in favor of the status quo, and as other fronts on the GWoT are won, the Taliban that can't be bought and the Arab jihadists that can't be killed will wither on the vine in mountain caves. In the meantime, in A-Stan we keep killing them whenever/wherever the opportunity arises and keep tyring to win hearts and minds.


text: I started trying this last night, and he is pretty good at the fetch command. The problem is getting him to keep the bumper in his mouth for any length of time. Towards the end of the training session, I was just having him grab it and put it in his mouth for a couple seconds and then giving the "give" (I use "drop") command. I think sometimes my expectations need to be lowered a bit!

'Environmentally Preferable Purchasing' to be discussed, March 8
Posted March 5, 2002; 05:19 p.m.
The Nature and Culture discussion group will hold a presentation and discussion on environmentally preferable purchasing at noon Friday, March 8, in Frist 212.
The guest speaker will be Kevin Lyons, head of purchasing at Rutgers University and author of "Buying for the Future: Contract Management and Environmental Challenge," which was awarded the National Conservation Award from the National Wildlife Federation.
Lyons will discuss the challenges and benefits of designing and issuing purchasing contracts which integrate and promote sustainable economic development concepts. He will use as examples his environmental contract design and implementation work at Rutgers, the World Wildlife Federation-UK and Colombia.
Lyons also will talk about his doctoral dissertation, which examined U.S. Federal Executive Order 13101, "Greening the Government Through Waste Prevention, Recycling and Federal Acquisition," and the development of a U.S. higher education best practice model. His research has led to the development of a Web-based environmentally preferable purchasing waste/life cycling tracking and reporting system.
