We here at Camp Minikani are happy to see spring has finally arrived! The snow has melted, the temperatures are warming up, and the spring peepers, chorus frogs, and skunk cabbage have all made their spring arrivals known in our wetlands. As we eagerly await school groups coming out here again this spring, our environmental education department is wrapping up the in-school lessons we've been teaching over the past few months. We've been weekly visitors to Steffen Middle School, Richfield School, and Tippecanoe Elementary School over the past couple months. As part of these classes, the students have learned about their ecological footprint, composting, and environmental media. At Richfield School, the 7th graders raised awareness of various issues that were of concern to them. One group focused on food waste at lunch, and they created a video and presentation that addresses the issues and showed it to the students at the school. Another group organized an E-Cycling drive, where students, teachers, parents, and community members could bring in their old electronics and have them donated to organizations that will then give money to Richfield School in exchange. These students also wrote nature journals, took nature themed photography, and worked on their projects in their free time.
Steffen Middle School 7th graders have had an extensive program combining classes on eco footprints and composting. The students first took quizzes to determine how much of an impact they have on Planet Earth. After they discovered their impacts, they began learning about a way to reduce their impact, through composting. These classes focused on how long it takes for materials to decompose in both a landfill, and then in a compost pile. The difference for some materials really surprised the students. With our last visit there, the school will receive a large composter to use for composting their organic waste from lunches and any snacks the students might have. The 7th graders are pumped to take on the responsibility of maintaining their composting system at their school throughout the rest of the year. The students at Tippecanoe also took part in the same composting program. They built small composters made of two liter soda bottles, and then added organic waste to the composters that were kept in their classrooms over a few weeks. The students at Steffen added the compost from their own bottles to the large composter at their school and it will hopefully turn into nutrient rich soil in the next few months for them to use. We only have a few more weeks until the schools are out here every day…we're excited to get going once again!

A best-dressed contest held every night will bestow one lucky dancer with the coveted title, so competitive guests will want to don their best studded glove and skinny tie before bathing in a bucket of blue eye shadow and donning a Frankie Says Relax T-shirt sewn together from Members Only jackets and Rubik's Cubes. The prom ends at 9:45 p.m., but ticketholders can dirty dance their way over to the after-party free of charge as Webster Hall transforms from a high school gymnasium into a nightclub where modern beats reign supreme over ear underlings.

Dazzling audiences since 1911, Plays and Players boasts a troupe of talented thespians ready to take on Lost in Yonkers, a play that has won four Tony Awards, a Pulitzer Prize, and countless fist pumps. The complex and sharp-witted coming-of-age story follows two brothers sent to live in Yonkers, New York. Written by Neil Simon and directed by Betty Chomentowski, the approximately two-hour comedic drama depicts the struggles the brothers face after their father sends them to live with their immigrant grandmother, simple-minded aunt, and hooligan uncle. During the performance's 15-minute intermission, audience members can wipe tears of laughter from their eyes or mend the tears in their skulls incurred while thinking too deeply about the play's lessons on family relationships.

To ensure you can put lots of stuff in and get to it pronto, we first put in lots of thought. That's why the huge main compartment is also host to a deep, velcro-fastened centre pocket plus left and right deep stuff pockets. Why there's a full-width internal zippered pocket and external velcro-fastened front pouch. And why there's a secreted external short stuff side pocket below both accessory straps.
Seal the Complete Seedís outer flap with its trio of injection moulded velcro fasteners and even the most dexterous pocket pickerer will struggle to get their mischievous mitts in unnoticed.
The more stuff you carry, the more you need a wide strap to distribute its weight - and the more you'll appreciate the Complete Seed's soft but strong 50mm flamed polypropylene webbing and removable Air Mesh shoulder pad. Complete with QuickFlick™ buckle system, it will go to almost any lengths to ensure the bag sits right where you want it.
Particularly paranoid about your personal belongings? Excess-ing your baggage? Bring the two quick release compression straps into play. Exhale. Click. Tighten. Done. What a cinch.
See that extra little strap thingee dangling off the Complete Seedís shoulder strap? It's our 11 herbs and spices secret recipe third leg. Clip it under your left arm, then adjust your strap lengths and shoulder pad position. Badabing! The bag is stable and your load is on your back right where it should be.
One of the reinforced side accessory loops makes a handy hideaway for surplus strappage. The other is perfect for any frippery, baggery, gidgetry, gadgetry or other hangers on of your choosing.
Make yourself - and your views on passing motorists - plain as day, and even more obvious at night, with the bag's turn-that-smile-upside-down full-width reflector.
Be it rain, hail, sleet, snow, beer or mixed drinks, the bag's 1,000D outer and oversized flap are designed to weather the storm and keep what's inside dry.
The 1,000D outer and 300D Rip-stop lining combine phenomenal strength with exceptional smoothness. Your clothes don't catch. Your cargo donít get scratched.
Designed to outlast its lifetime guarantee, the bag features a super strength water resistant 1,000D outer, 300D Rip-stop lining, flamed polypropylene webbing, triple strength S-Bend webbing attachment, injection moulded velcro and bonded nylon thread with bar tack stitching on all stress points.
Not just 'a' warranty, but the Legendary Crumpler 'Til Death Do Us Part' Warranty!
If your Crumpler bag fails as a result of defective materials or workmanship under normal use while you: a) draw breath and b) remain the bag's owner, we'll repair or replace the part(s) in question – no questions asked. Just drop your bag off at a Crumpler Store or mail your bag to a Crumpler HQ, postage paid, together with your proof of purchase and a short note to explain the problem. We'll make it right and send it back to you ASAP.
If we reckon the fault occurred as a result of 'abnormal' usage – no offence intended – we'll contact you and obtain your approval to repair the bag at your expense.
i am a uni student and i have to bring so much stuff everyday to school. this bag can carry A LOT and really strong so there's no need to worry about breaking or ripping or anything. such a handy bag. also i like the design!
This bag is the cat's PJ's....and can hold em. Took the kids to the Goldie and lugged all the stuff between theme parks. Comfort +. Nice one Crumplees!

Got the Orange Seed today.. and absolutely love it!! Quality is well worth the money and the material feels like it could acutally last a life time. Its got heaps of space and looks like it could gobble up everything/anything you throw at it. I'm planning to use this bag for soccer training, gym and weekends away.. (and just about anything else!) Very happy with this bag :)
I hate nappy bags, with a passion and when I found out I was expecting twins I found a new reason to hate them. They just aren't big enough! So rather than settling for bag that was too small for basically the same price I got a Complete seed. Best nappy bag in my opinion for 2 or more kids. Fits over the back of a double pram with ease and is comfortable slung across my back to boot! Not to mention, when I'm done using it my husband can have it for business trips. Well worth EVERY cent.
I've had a Complete Seed for 6 months of everyday commuting on the bike, and I'm really happy with it- great quality, comfortable, waterproof, looks like it'll be my companion for years to come. HOWEVER, as is sometimes noted on the web, this bag will work best (on a bike) when being used as intended - on a well fitted racer style bike while riding pretty hard. That is, tucked down, preferably in the drops. I commute this way- clipped in and often in the drops. When packed right the complete seed sits high on my back and most of the weight goes off the strap. It's really comfortable and I'm free to throw the bike around. However, the one day I did ride in on my mountain bike, which even though a race bike is more upright than my roadie, it was MUCH more uncomfortable. The weight stayed much more on the strap, weighing down on my shoulder. I would have been much better off with my backpack with the load shared on two shoulders. So, if you get it, use it on your roadie. Tighten 'er up really high on your back, use the stabilizer strap and enjoy.
Bought the Deus branded version of this messenger bag when they did an limited run. This bag has been commuted daily, travelled interstate, manhandled, slung, flung, drenched, beaten, bashed, slept on, but it's still going as strong as the day I bought it. Such is the build quality of a Crumpler bag.
This bag is awesome on the bike. Got one with bright yellow stripes and a reflective stripe that can be seen miles away. It's also built like a tank - I've come off the bike a couple times and the bag got scratched but nothing broke. Pretty waterproof too. The stabilising strap keeps it real tight and comfy, it's like it's hugging you. A couple downsides: No padding on the back. I'm not sure why most messenger bags don't do this, but they need it. Also, it's not so great for carrying any weight unless you're on the bike - the weight goes straight onto your shoulder rather than your back, which causes muscle and nerve issues. But if you're using it right, this bag is awesome.

EMCC Lions earn first baseball DH sweep of season with 9-5 and 4-0 home wins over Southwest |
SCOOBA – The East Mississippi Community College baseball team claimed its first doubleheader sweep of the season by downing visiting Southwest Mississippi Community College, 9-5 and 4-0, in non-division action late Tuesday afternoon at EMCC's Gerald Poole Field.
In the opener, the home-standing Lions banged out 14 hits, including three for extra bases, to rally from an early 2-0 deficit. The Bears went on top, 2-0, in their half of the third inning on a two-run home run by Johnny McKenzie off EMCC starter Corbin Johnson. An inning later, the Lions tied things up, 2-2, when Ismael Reyes singled home two runs after Holden Watts, Zane Migues and Jason Yarbor had led off the inning by loading up the bases with successive singles. After Southwest went back ahead, 4-2, in the top of the fifth by scoring a pair of runs off Smokey Ethridge, the Lions would ultimately make him the game one winner on the mound by scoring four runs in the bottom half of the inning. The initial damage came on Migues' team-leading third home run of the year, scoring courtesy runner Cody Berryhill. After a second Southwest error in the inning allowed Yarbor to reach base, EMCC moved ahead, 6-4, on subsequent back-to-back, two-out triples by Aaron Brady and Leroy Wilson. The Bears managed an unearned run off reliever Tyler Jones in the sixth, but the Lions added three more insurance runs in the bottom of the frame to account for the 9-5 final. Migues capped his 3-for-4 outing at the plate by singling in Tyler Bonaventure, who had walked to open the inning and advanced to second on a passed ball. In addition to his three runs batted in, Migues later scored his third run of the game when he and Yarbor came around to score on Reyes' second two-run single of the contest. Reyes, from Northeast Lauderdale, finished the opener 2-for-4 at the plate with four RBIs. Watts and Yarbor also had two hits apiece for the winners in game one. The nightcap featured a combined two-hit shutout from EMCC hurlers Blake Thomas, Dillon Hawkins and Blake Roberts. In facing just 27 Southwest batters in the seven-inning contest, the trio collectively struck out six and only allowed singles to Connor Goodspeed and McKenzie in the second and third innings, respectively. The only offense the Lions would need in game two came in the second inning on Leroy Wilson's leadoff home run - his third of the season to tie Migues for EMCC's team lead. Wilson, a former Columbus High School product, knocked in two more runs the next inning with a single up the middle, plating Yarbor and Bonaventure after they had reached via a walk and error, respectively, and advanced on a passed ball. Brady's two-out RBI single then completed the scoring in the nightcap. Coach Chris Rose's 10-12 EMCC Lions, 1-3 in MACJC North Division play after splitting at Holmes and being swept at home by Northwest Mississippi last week, are set to close out their current week-long home stand by entertaining division rival Itawamba Community College on Saturday. Doubleheader action between the Lions and Indians is slated to begin at 1 p.m. on the Scooba campus. |

January Quadrantid Meteor Shower 2013 Peak: When to Watch
The first meteor shower of 2013 begins Tuesday over the skies of the Lehigh Valley
The Quadrantid meteor shower is named for an extinct constellation, but the shooting stars that seem to sprout from it still arrive yearly, and the opening of the 2013 show will begin overnight Jan. 1 into Jan. 2. The Quadrantids is one of the lesser-known meteor showers of the year, but that doesn't mean it's anything less than spectacular. Take a look at this Quadrantids meteor shower video or these pictures of the Quadrantids. While the shower begins overnight on the first day of the new year, NASA tells us Quadrantid meteor shower peaks in the wee morning hours of Jan. 4: "[T]he Quadrantids have a maximum rate of about 100 per hour, varying between 60-200.

COLUMBIA, Ky. – Tom Moody's goal with 6:12 remaining in the second overtime lifted top-ranked Lindsey Wilson to a 2-1 win over the No. 2-ranked University of Rio Grande, Thursday night, in the championship game of the Mid-South Conference Men's Soccer Tournament at Lindsey Wilson's Walter S. Reuling Stadium.
The Blue Raiders, 19-1, avenged an overtime loss to the RedStorm during the regular season with the come-from-behind victory.
Rio Grande, which slipped to 15-2-1 with the loss, saw its 16-game unbeaten streak snapped.
Freshman forward Luiz Filho (Sao Paulo, Brazil) broke a scoreless deadlock when he found the net off of a feed from senior forward Richard Isberner (Sao Paulo, Brazil), giving Rio a 1-0 lead with 26:10 left in the contest.
That's how things stayed until the closing seconds of regulation, when Moody scored with 12 seconds left to play to tie the match and force overtime.
After both teams went scoreless in the first extra session, Moody recorded the game-winner by pushing a loose ball past Rio senior goal keeper Jack Marchant (Leeds, England) after he failed to corral his save of a point-blank shot by Lindsey's Lwandiso Gonya in front of the goal.
Rio Grande outshot the Blue Raiders 16-10, including 6-5 in shots on goal.
Marchant finished with three saves in a losing cause, while Lindsey Wilson net-minder Yuta Nomura had five saves in the victory.
Rio Grande will return to action on Saturday, November 17, in the opening round of the NAIA National Tournament. The RedStorm will learn the identity of their first-round foe on Sunday.

The Internal Revenue Service often is viewed as a "bad guy" in the taxation process, but the IRS actually is providing a program allowing local residents to get their returns prepared for free.
Lee Spencer of Pinnacle was one of those taking advantage of the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program Friday afternoon at the Surry County Senior Center at 215 Jones School Road in Mount Airy.
Spencer sat by as a specially trained local volunteer used a computer to record his financial information, in a setting much different from a crowded commercial tax-preparation office filled by frantic taxpayers with W-2s in hand.
"It's easy, accessible and nice people to work with," was the assessment offered by Spencer, who took advantage of VITA for the second-straight year. The only local resources required for the IRS-sponsored program are volunteer preparers and the space they use.
Though it is being offered from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. each Friday at the "senior citizens" center, the service is open to people of all ages. But their household income must be in the moderate or low range — $50,000 or less.
"Which is almost anybody in Mount Airy now," said Paul Eich, the volunteer who was assisting Spencer.
Further up the hallway in the former school building now used for various functions including the senior center, a smiling Rodney Gunter was leaving with his wife Kathy after having their tax forms filed.
"It saves paying somebody else to do it," said Gunter, a retiree who worked at Renfro Corp.
"We need a lot more programs like that," his wife said.
"It's a wonderful program," agreed Sheryl Gilliam, director of the Surry County Senior Center.
Gilliam said that even she and her husband now take advantage of the VITA service, after using a nationally known commercial preparer for years. The tipping point for them was facing a $250 charge to have that firm continue to file their taxes.
"We used the service last year," Gilliam said of VITA, "and we got back about the same (refund)."
Slots Offered
The availability of the free tax-filing program is not that widely known among local citizens, but hasn't exactly been a well-kept secret, either.
"So far we've had about 60 scheduled appointments," Gilliam said Friday afternoon. With the service available only on Fridays, the preparers are now booked up through March 8, with appointments being accepted for the remainder of the tax season.
Officials stress that the service, which started on Feb. 1, is available only through appointments — with no walk-ins accepted — which can be arranged at 786-6155, ext. 242 or 225.
In addition to simple federal income tax returns, taxpayers also can have simple North Carolina returns prepared at no charge. They are being filed electronically during February, March and April.
Gilliam said if someone is really needing to have their returns done in a hurry, she refers them to the local branch of the State Employees Credit Union, which also is providing the same VITA program.
For those with limited incomes, "it's a huge service," she pointed out.
Gilliam provided figures from March of last year, when the tax season was not complete, showing that the program then had already saved local residents more than $22,000, based on average costs for paid preparations.
Overall in 2012, the volunteer preparers processed 177 returns here.

The rooftop seating across from Wrigley Field, many contend, is as iconic as the ivy-covered brick walls inside the historic ballpark. Unfortunately for Cubs fans, the organization hasn't always seen eye-to-eye with the neighbors on Waveland and Sheffield Avenues. And it appears that could be happening again.

Dear U.S. Access Board
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Public Rights of Way Guidelines. The guidelines are vital to insure that persons with disabilities have an equal opportunity to participate in the community. I wish to express my support for the adoption of these guidelines. Of particular importance are the following proposed guidelines which I strongly support:
1. Section 1102.3. Alternate Circulation Path. The proposed guideline requires an alternate circulation path whenever the existing sidewalk is blocked by construction, alteration, maintenance or other temporary conditions. This will insure that people with disabilities will not be denied access to the public sidewalks for the duration of the construction project which can last for years.
2. Section 1102.10. Stairs. The proposal to require a 2-inch visually contrasting strip along each tread nosing is very important for persons with visual impairments. Especially in low lighting conditions, unmarked stair treads are a severe danger to persons with low vision.
3. Section 1102.12. Vertical Access. The proposal to require that vertical access elevators and lifts remain unlocked is vital. This will insure that access is as readily available as it to the general public. Experience has shown that locked elevators and lifts in effect deny access to people with disabilities.
4. Section 1102.14. On-Street Parking. The proposed requirement that at least one accessible on-street parking space be provided for each block face is absolutely necessary to insure that people with disabilities are able to have equal access to parking.
5. Section 1103.4. Cross Slope. The proposal to require a maximum cross slope of 1:48 or 2.08 percent is necessary to insure that sidewalks are usable to persons with disabilities. A 3 percent cross slope is twice as hard to use as a 2 percent cross slope. Cross slopes greater than 2 percent cause permanent and debilitating damage to tendons and joints.
6. Section 1103.8. Changes in Level. Requiring that changes in level can not occur more frequently than every 30 inches is critically important and will insure that designers and builders will not use the allowed changes in level to occur every few inches in order to avoid building ramps.
7. Section 1104.3.2. Detectable Warnings. The proposed guideline to require Detectable Warnings or truncated domes at curb ramps is vitally important to people with visual impairments. Truncated domes are necessary to insure that persons with visual impairments are able to detect where the sidewalk stops and the street begins. By requiring that the truncated domes be in a line and widely spaced, wheelchair users will be able to wheel across the domes without difficulty.
8. Section 1105.2.2. Cross Slope. The proposal to require that crosswalks not have a cross slope greater than 1:48 or 2.08 percent is critical to insuring that people with disabilities can cross vehicular ways safely, quickly and without the physical damage that ensues when trying to traverse a cross slope greater than 2 percent.
9. Section 1105.3. Pedestrian (Universal Path User: See comment on definition below.) Signal Phase Timing. Requiring that cross walk signals allow time not only to cross the street but to ascend the opposite curb ramp is essential to the safety of persons with disabilities. However, time should be provided to allow the person to descend the curb ramp also. Otherwise, a person with a disability will have to wait at the bottom of the curb ramp in the street for the light to change in order to cross the street before the signal changes again.
10. Section 1105.5.3. Overpass and Underpass Approach. Requiring an elevator to provide accessibility where sidewalks cross overpasses and underpasses that create a rise in the sidewalk greater than five feet is essential to insure that people with disabilities will not be barred from using the sidewalks by the difficulty in ascending more than five feet. Most people with mobility disabilities do not have the stamina to ascend more than five feet at a time.
11. Section 1105.6.1. Roundabouts Separation. Requiring a continuous barrier along the street side of sidewalk where people with visual impairments will be precluded from inadvertently entering the vehicular way in "roundabouts" is essential for their safety.
12. Section 1106.2. Signals. It is essential for the safety of persons with visual impairments that this section be adopted. Requiring audible and vibrotactile indications of the WALK interval at signalized intersections provides the same opportunities and safety provided for the general public. Lack of audible and vibrotactile indicators where the general public is provided signalized intersections is discrimination and precludes people with visual impairments from the use of the public right of way.
13. Section 1108.1. Detectable Warnings. Requiring truncated domes to be aligned in a grid pattern is necessary to allow the wheels of wheelchair users to travel over them without difficulty.
14. Sections 1111.4 and 1111.6. Barricades. It is essential for the safety of persons with disabilities, especially those with visual impairments, that the proposed guideline require a solid wall or fence for barricades to separate the sidewalk from adjacent construction sites, drop-offs, openings and other hazards, as proposed.
The following guidelines should be amended in order to insure that persons with disabilities have equal protection and access in public right of way:
1. Definition: Pedestrian Access Route. The proposed guidelines state that the accessible portion of the public right of way sidewalk will be termed the "pedestrian access route." These recommended guidelines represent a profound change in the way the public environment will be built. To continue the use of the antiquated term "pedestrian" to describe the new environment that will for the first time recognize the needs of all of the public is to risk a continuation of the same mind set that has excluded people with disabilities for centuries. We have replaced our antiquated and damaging labels such as "handicapped," "crippled and "incurables" with the phrase "people with disabilities." We did so because we recognized the power of language and how people are damaged by negative, misleading and inadequate labels. Let us now replace "pedestrian access route" with the phrase "universal path" or "circulation path," (a term used frequently in the proposed guidelines), to describe the new accessible public right of way. The phrases "universal path users" or "circulation path users" should be used to identify the entire user group. We are building a whole new public environment and we need the right tools for the job.
2. Sections 1102.5.1 and 1102.5.2. Protrusion Limits and Post-Mounted Objects. The proposed guidelines allow objects with leading edges less than 27 inches in height to project into the circulation path. People with visual impairments who use canes usually do not swing their canes as high as 27 inches in order to detect a barrier and can be severely hurt as a result of these proposed guidelines. The guidelines should be amended to require that only objects with leading edges more than six inches above the ground can project into the circulation path.
3. Section 1103.7. Surface Gaps at Rail Crossings. The proposed guideline allow 2.5 to 3 inch wide gaps where a circulation route crossing commuter and train rails. Such gaps are sure to entrap the wheels of wheelchairs and lives will be lost. The U.S. Access Board should demand immediate development and use of gap closures for where circulation routes cross rails.
4. Sections 1126.96.36.199 and1220.127.116.11. Curb Ramp Landings. Curb ramp landings where a change of direction is required must be 60 by 60, as is required in the current Americans with Disabilities Act Access Guidelines (ADAAG.). See ADAAG 4.2.3. The proposed public-right-of-way guidelines allow a landing at curb ramps that is 48 inches by 48 inches, which is too small to allow people in wheelchairs to change directions as will be required at many curb ramps. The 48 inches by 48 inches for landings is particularly inadequate for the larger scooters which are used in the outdoor environment.
5. Section 1104.3.6. Counter Slopes. The slope of gutter at the bottom of a curb ramp creates a trough which can cause wheelchair mobile people to be thrown from their wheelchairs. The Public Rights of Way Access Advisory Committee proposed that the resulting combination of the gutter slope and the curb ramp slope not equal more than 11 percent. That is, if the gutter is 5 percent slope, then the curb ramp cannot be more than 6 percent slope. However, the U.S. Access Board did not follow the recommendation of the committee. I strongly urge you to adopt the 11 percent maximum sum for the addition of the gutter and curb ramp slopes in order to insure that not only wheelchair users, but users of the longer scooters will not be damaged by the trough created by the connecting gutters and curb ramps.
6. Section 1107.4.2. Multiple Telephones. The proposed guidelines require only one wheelchair accessible telephone and only one telephone with a TTY at a bank of telephones. This means that people with disabilities have no other telephones available when the accessible telephones are out of order. Accessible telephones are accessible to many users. Providing only one accessible telephone is inadequate and not equitable. Please amend the guidelines to require that 50 percent of telephones in a bank of telephones be accessible.
7. Section 1107.5 Public Toilet Facilities. The Public Rights of Way Access Advisory Committee recommended to the Board that toilet facilities in the outdoor environment have 48 inches of clear floor space in front of the toilet. This was recommended because the current ADAAG standards do not provide for a toilet stall large enough to accommodate people in larger wheelchairs and scooters. Particularly in the outdoor environment, more people with mobility disabilities use scooters and need to be able to use the public toilet facilities. Please follow the recommendation of the committee and amend the guidelines to require toilet stalls that are usable by persons who use larger wheelchairs and scooters. This will be particularly important for the increasing aging population.
Thank you for your time and consideration,

2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset

2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetHey Guys and Gals
Need some independent info on the 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 cant really find any review done by any of the publications, have asked a few of them on twitter and got told to sign up to their forums and ask the members So my questions are 1. What are the Fuji bikes like 2. I have found one of the above mentioned bikes for $2000 down from $3900 (not sure what original price was but that is whats on the tag underneath the what he wanted for it) as shop owner said he needs to move them on before new stock, is it a good deal or should i keep looking. i have been riding on and off for a year or two but am now looking at upgrading from my Giant OCR 3 and getting a decent bike Any help is greatly appreciated Cheers Luke
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset1. They are awesome. I ride an SST 1.0 which is slightly higher spec, stiffer, ISP etc.
The SST 2.0 was reviewed a while back in Ride magazine, to good overall results. 2. $2000 is a bargain for a fully Ultegra equipped SST. S-Works Venge
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetAgree with MarkG
I bought a 2012 SST2.0 a few weeks ago. I think they are great value for money! I have only done a couple of hundred km's so far but I have been very happy with the way it feels. You should test ride it before you make any decision as they are very stiff and might not be what you are looking for.
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupsetjust a bit of food for thought, the SST is a very different bike to the OCR. Whilst the OCR is more centered on all day comfort, the SST is super stiff, has a really aggressive geometry and is more a race orientated bike.
Can you imagine what I would do if I could do all I can? - Sun Tzu

Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetI looked at this bike but thought I needed something more endurance geometry.
Really nice bike looks fantasitic make sure it fits and good luck with the decision. Giant Defy Advanced 2

Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetCheers for the help people, being relatively new to higher end bikes and racing
Your responses have raised a couple more questions 1. Hammo what do you mean when you say the bike is stiff. 2. Jeff what is the difference between geometries, I assume there is racing and endurance types. Cheers again for your help Luke
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetTest ride it! If you like it then buy it.
Saw one at Gold Cross Cycles a little while ago. Was even my size. Just didn't have that type of money to spend at the time. $2000 is a very decent price for that bike IMO. 2013 Bupa Challange at the Tour Downunder - 25th of Jan 2013 - Raising money for the Cancel Council - bit.ly/YzLYG3

Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset
Fuji make an Altimira which is more aimed for endurance rides versus criterium rides, its all about the angles of the posts and what position it puts the rider in. It doesnt matter that much considering a TDU stage was won on an SST 3.0 frame.
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetLuke,
Race geometry bikes are more aggressive, ultra stiff, and less vertical compliance - look at the shapes of the SST, Venge, and Ridley Noah as examples. A more 'traditional' shape is more of a GC bike, like Danny the boy said, the Altamira for one, the Ridley Helium etc - less stiffness, more compliance. Each to their own - I put a Showtime load of k's on my SST and don't find it uncomfortable, tho in saying that, if I went to a more relaxed bike, I could def'n tell the difference! S-Works Venge
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetThanks for all your help people, used some of your advice and took the bike for a test ride.
An amazing difference in comfort and smoothness compared to my old bike So I think you can guess by that line that I am a proud owner of said bike. Took the bike for a ride today, did 37kms and am very happy with bike. In the end it cost me $2270 for the bike, a new set of shimano 105 pedals,limar 777 helmet, wireless basic computer, front and rear basic cateye lights and a bottle cage. Very happy, and now my riding journey begins Thankyou all Luke
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetThis is my new weapon in getting me fit and participating in a few events like around the bay Cheers
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetNicee.. Love Fuji bikes..
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupsethow does it go on longer rides (say up to 100kms?)
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset
Hi Jason Ive had the bike 2 months now but havent had time for any 100km trips due to Football finals and being mucked around at work having to stay late and so forth the longest trip ive been on is around 60kms and i felt fine once i'd finished, also still felt comfortable towards the end of my ride. My average rides are between 30-40km during the week and 50-60 on weekends ive only had three road bikes in my time a Big W special my wife bought me thinking she was doing something nice, a Giant OCR 3 and now the Fuji which is far superior. i've only started riding like this in the last 6 months so my knowledge of bikes comfort may not hold much weight, but i can tell you that it is by far the most comfortable bike i have ridden so far. hope that helps.
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset
it does, thanks
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset
Hey Jason, I have the SST 1.0 as does MarkG and I'm sure he will agree its a stiff ride but certainly very comfortable, well at least for me
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupsetso I bit the bullet and bought it last weekend. First ride on it today. Go the cages recommended by rabobank.
Without trying, this bike just goes. Will post more of a review in a month Thanks
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetSo I had a chance to weigh my bike this morning. With garmin bits, bottle cages and pedals it's 8.44kgs
Am very impressed.
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetYeah, for an ultra stiff bike, the SST is suprisingly not that heavy.
In saying that, stiff bikes are never going to be featherweights due to the excess amounts of carbon used to achieve a stiffer frame. S-Works Venge
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset
Am pretty sure the SST 1.0 is a different frame. Either way, for 8kgs, it's 4.5kgs lighter than my giant flat bar
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra GroupsetAs I've stated, the geo is the same, just a different carbon fibre grade and different lay up.
S-Works Venge
Re: 2011 Fuji SST 2.0 with Ultegra Groupset
what's "lay up"?

Vermicomposting benefits
Pet worms? Well, not exactly. But those whose plants have benefitted from the rich vermicompost that worms produce are usually enthusiastic about having a plastic bin of these wiggly red creatures in their home. Vermicompost is a humus-like material that contains large numbers of worm castings produced when organic materials pass through a worm's gut. "It's an alternative to conventional backyard composting," said Henrico Extension Agent Karen Carter. "And it's generally a faster process." Conventional composting depends on micro-organisms to break down organic wastes. Vermicomposting uses worms for most of that work. The worms are housed in a plastic "worm bin." Carter periodically gives "make and take" workshops for people interested in trying the process. "None are scheduled right now," said Carter, "but if you're interested, call the Extension Office, and we'll put your name on a waiting list." To make a worm bin, drill air holes around the top of a 14-gallon plastic container, roughly 24 x 16 x 12.5 inches. Add roughly 4 pounds of shredded newspaper, a gallon of water, and 2 quarts each of coffee grounds and purchased bagged compost. "We recommend the bagged compost," said Carter. "With backyard compost, you run the risk of bringing in insects." Last, and most important, add a pound of worms. "Be sure you get the right worms," said Carter. "That's critical because not just any earthworm will work. You need Eisenia fetida, the red wiggler worm." The worms are commercially available on line, or you may be able to get them from someone who is already vermicomposting. Periodically, the bins have to be divided both as a method of harvesting the vermicompost and because the worms can easily double in number. "Harvesting the compost can be the most challenging part," said Carter. "Some people use purchased systems rather than making their own because they can make separating the worms from the vermicompost a little easier." Worms can eat most fruits and vegetables provided they are not too salty or too acidic. Meat, dairy products, and fatty or greasy foods shouldn't be given to the worms. Coffee grounds including the filters and tea bags also make excellent food. "Make sure you don't overfeed the worms," cautioned Carter. Under optimum conditions, worms can process their body weight in food each day. Typically, however, they can't quite eat that much, and overfeeding can create odor problems. Carter recommends anyone interested in starting a worm bin look online at the Virginia Extension publication, "Composting Your Organic Kitchen Wastes with Worms." "It's excellent," she said. "But we recommend one slight change. Don't drill drainage holes in the bottom of the bin. Not having them doesn't turn out to be a problem, and sometimes having those holes in the bottom of your bin makes a mess." Without the drainage holes, a worm bin can be kept in the kitchen or basement, anyplace where temperatures don't fall below freezing or go over 100 degrees Farenheit. "Vermicomposting can be more convenient than backyard composting," said Carter. "Plus, it's an interesting process to watch, particularly if you have children and want to teach them about the natural world." |

Those who follow this route are also sure to have stories to tell. The German section of the Moselle Cycle Route, part of the international Vélo Tour Moselle, begins in Perl. Stretching out before you are 250 kilometres of richly varied and mostly level terrain on your way to Koblenz. Trier is worth a visit with its mighty Roman monuments. Just a few miles downriver, the Moselle passes through the Rhenish slate mountains, winding its way through the ever-narrowing valley. Here, you will find cultural treasures galore, such as the Roman villa in Longuich or the Moselle castles. The Moselle Cycle Route ends at Deutsches Eck (German Corner). Terrain: an international long-distance cycle route running predominantly on asphalt paths, farm tracks and old towpaths over mainly level terrain. The German section from Perl is signposted using a standard logo which differs from the French version. Scenery: Moselle wine-growing country with numerous twists and turns in the river, steep valleys and traditional terraced vineyards. The cycle paths run between the banks of the river and the vineyards and pass through more than 120 wine-making villages.

WEB EXCLUSIVE: Better for it: Lions soccer tackles obstacles
By Richard C. White, email@example.com
The season may have just started, but the McKinney Lions soccer team is battling through various adversities already. The team is stronger for it though, as they refuse to let their obstacles set them back in any way.
"I think we're right on schedule," said Alan Pocock, Lions head coach. "We're dealing with more injuries right now than we have in previous seasons. It's usually after the second tournament when the legs start to feel it. It was a pretty rugged opening-weekend tournament for us."
The Lions are 3-1-1 on the season as they enter the Little Elm Invitational, which runs from Thursday through Saturday.
The Lions are enduring a various degree of injuries ranging in severity from playable nicks and bruises to being in the unplayable position of crutches. Yet even that is short-term as Pocock expects most of his injured players back within the next two weeks.
While some teams may get down when saddled with so many injuries early in the season, Pocock said his team has rebounded nicely.
"I've been impressed by the leadership from our seniors," he said. "I'd say half the roster right now is dealing with a knock of some sort from the last two weeks. We've got a number of starters in the training room the first twenty minutes of practice the last week and a half."
Two of the players who are delivering on their leadership potential are senior midfielders Mikie Swim and Gerson Mendoza.
"I expect a lot out of our senior captains Gerson and Mikie," said Pocock. "And I expect a lot out of our defenders."
McKinney's defenders this season include seniors Sean Townsend and Mathew West and junior Andres Garza.
As for their goalkeeper, the Lions have used senior Rylan Whan and junior Quique Vicens
"I have split time with different players at the position the last couple years," Pocock said. "We've been blessed with goalkeepers the last several years. I do like in this early season having the keepers battle it out to see who comes out on top. It's the time of the year I like to see that."
Pocock is pleased with what he's seen from his squad defensively so far, but wants more production out of his offense.
"Defensively we're doing fine," he said. "Our defensive stats are great, but our offensive stats as far as finishing are not. I wish we were finishing better."
As for what's expected from his team this season, Pocock said the standard has yet to change.
"Our program has established itself to the expectation of getting into the playoffs," he said. "Right now our goal is to do whatever it takes and earn one of those four spots."
The Lions have established themselves as a perennial playoff contender, having made the postseason every season since 2005 as well as in 12 of Pocock's 21 seasons at McKinney. The Lions were back-to-back undefeated district champions before realignment put them into District 10-5A this season.
"There's pressure to make the playoffs, no doubt," Pocock said. "This isn't just any 5A district. It's kind of the group of death in 5A with multiple-state-championship Plano and perennial playoff powers in Allen and Boyd, who was the district champs last year."
While they know the path to postseason won't be easy, Pocock is confident his players understand the task they have before them.
"We stress to them to respect all teams, but fear none," he said. "We stress to never give up; there's always time to score a goal. That kind of mentality is what's important."

For most of Paul Ramirez's life, only those closest to him knew that he lived with a serious brain disorder.
Ramirez, of Pasadena, California, found out he had epilepsy when he was 22. Now 50, he's had seven grand mal seizures, which make him lose consciousness. Still, he often went years without having a seizure at all.
"I kept it private from extended members of my family. I never told my friends. I was ashamed of it," Ramirez said.
That changed in June. Ramirez was waiting to see his neurologist after a recent seizure. The doctor would help determine whether Ramirez should continue driving.
In the waiting room, Ramirez stumbled across a CNN.com story on his iPad. The story, published after U.S. Commerce Secretary John Bryson had a seizure while driving, explained how common seizures are and the reasons they can occur. It featured people living with epilepsy who talked about the impact the disorder had on their lives.
Reading the piece marked a turning point in Ramirez's life.
"It was the first time I had ever read a story that actually mirrored my own life," he said. "It was inspiring. It was encouraging. It gave me hope that there were others out there (like me)."
Ramirez immediately sent an e-mail to Nathan Jones, who was featured in the story. By the time the doctor appointment was over, Jones had responded. Ramirez and Jones, project coordinator at the Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Los Angeles, soon became fast friends, sharing stories over coffee and lunch.
A week later, Ramirez went to the foundation's office and met with the staff. He wrote an e-mail to his family and friends, telling them about his journey and his struggles with epilepsy. He also told them the Department of Motor Vehicles was looking into whether he should keep his license.
He was overwhelmed with support.

Schools brace for potential 8.2 percent cuts for 2013-14
The possibility of cuts in federally funded programs in schools is of such great concern to the National School Board Association, it's advocating that local boards lobby Congress to stop the cuts.
"The potential loss of more than 8 percent of federal education funding is serious," said Oakland Schools Deputy Superintendent of Finance Bob Moore.
All of Oakland County's 28 public school districts would be affected, including a loss of funding for special education.
The Budget Control Act of 2011 will impose across-the-board cuts of approximately 8.2 percent to education and other domestic programs in the 2013 fiscal year unless Congress intervenes by Jan. 2, according to the National School Board Association.
Most school districts would not see any impact until the 2013-14 school year, but those consequences will be severe, according to the national board.
Districts that receive Impact Aid funds would see immediate cuts.
"Although the funding in question is for next year," it is difficult for school districts to plan when there is no certainty that a different solution other than cutting education funding will be found in time, Moore said.
"The overall education financial situation is further compounded by the (already existing) inadequate funding for special education programs, loss of property tax revenue, unfunded liabilities for pension costs, and education funding reductions at the state level," Moore said.
The specific federal funds that could be cut if Congress does not act, are Title I, II and 3 and IDEA (individuals with Disability Education Act), Homeless program funding, Carl Perkins Vocational Act funding, to name just the major funding sources in Oakland County, Moore said.
Many districts count on Title 1 funds to help children who are disadvantaged and at risk of failure. Continued...
For every $1 million of federal aid districts receive, they would lose $82,000; and, while districts can vary widely, on average, for every 5,000 students enrolled, districts would lose about $300,000, according to the national board.
The impact of an 8.2 percent cut to programs such as Title I grants for disadvantaged students would mean a cut of more than $1 billion, affecting nearly 2 million students.
Special education grants would be reduced by more than $900 million, impacting nearly 500,000 children with disabilities, according to the national board.
And English Language Acquisition grants would be cut by approximately $60 million, affecting an estimated 377,000 students.
Moore said some of the districts that receive the Impact Aid that would be cut immediately are in locations in the presence of military installations or in the presence of Indian lands.
On Wednesday, the NASB held a national media teleconference with school officials in California, Oklahoma, and Virginia, who talked about how the cuts would hurt their communities.
These cuts would continue over a 10-year period and would have a devastating effect on schools, eroding the base of funding for key programs year after year, according to NASB officials.
"The end result for many of our nation's public schools would be larger class sizes, fewer course offerings, four-day school weeks, less extracurricular activities, less access to intervention programs, and teacher/staff layoffs," the national association stated in a press release.
The NASB is a not-for-profit organization representing state associations of school boards and their more than 90,000 local school board members throughout the United States, which includes most in Oakland County and Michigan.

Woodstock Fire Company 3 ex-Treasurer Dale D. Hughes Jr. admits stealing from squad
KINGSTON, N.Y. — A former Woodstock Fire Company 3 treasurer who was accused of embezzling more than $220,000 from his squad pleaded guilty to grand larceny on Wednesday, according to the Ulster County District Attorney's Office.
Dale D. Hughes Jr., 64, entered his plea in Ulster County Court before Judge Donald A. Williams, DA Holley Carnright said.
Hughes, an attorney and former member of the Woodstock Town Board, was charged in October 2012 after a state Comptroller's Office report said auditors determined he stole $221,385 from the fire company from 2006 to 2011.
Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said in the fall that the fire company's Executive Committee asked him to launch an investigation after a $10,000 check for a new fire truck bay was returned in May 2011 due to insufficient funds.
DiNapoli said his office found Hughes endorsed 83 checks worth a total of $200,385, made them payable to "cash" and deposited them in his personal bank account. The comptroller said auditors estimated the former treasurer also pocketed $21,000 in cash proceeds from various pancake breakfast fundraisers.
After the May 2011 check bounced, Hughes borrowed about $170,000 from family members and put the sum into the fire company's account, Carnright said.
The district attorney said Hughes is expected to return the remainder of the stolen amount, as well.
Hughes is to be sentenced on March 13, and though he could face up to 15 years in state prison, Carnright said the term probably will be much shorter and served in the Ulster County Jail if all of the money is paid back.
The Woodstock Fire District comprises five companies. The alleged embezzlement affected only Company 3.
Ulster County Assistant District Attorney Joshua Povill prosecuted Hughes. The defendant was represented by attorney Brian Rounds.

Ventia the first tenant in ideal Idea III Park In Warsaw30 Oct, 2012, WarsawPark Ideal Idea III, currently under construction, has welcomed its first tenant. Ventia has leased 1,600 sq m of warehouse space with office and social area. Cushman & Wakefield, the world's largest privately held commercial real estate services firm, has acted as consultant in the transaction. Ventia is a company from the sanitary engineering sector operating on the HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) market. It is a distributor of ventilation and air-conditioning equipment. The company has decided to relocate to new premises to accommodate the expanding business and to improve the quality of office and warehouse space. The tenant will move into Ideal Idea III park on 1 June 2013. Ideal Idea III park is a modern warehouse and office facility being developed in the form of SBU (small business unit). It is located on Działkowa Street in Warsaw. The first two buildings totalling 11,000 sq m (3,000 sq m of grade A office space and 8,000 sq m of warehouse space adjacent to the office part) are scheduled for completion in Q2 2013. The whole complex is to comprise four buildings. The developer is Ideal Idea. "Warsaw's Włochy district is particularly attractive for companies looking for locating their headquarters and warehouse and distribution areas. The main attributes of the project are a very good transport connection with the city centre, the proximity to the Fryderyk Chopin international airport and convenient access to the A2 motorway. Tenants are also offered the flexibility of modifying their needs during the construction stage, which guarantees greater space efficiency" – says Joanna Sinkiewicz, senior negotiator in industrial department of Cushman & Wakefield.

Topamax Sprinkle
What is Topamax Sprinkle (Topiramate)?
Topiramate is a seizure medication, also called an anticonvulsant.
Topiramate is used alone or in combination with other medications to treat seizures in adults and children who are at least 2 years old.
Topiramate is also used to prevent migraine headaches in adults. Topiramate will only prevent migraine headaches or reduce the number of attacks. It will not treat a headache that has already begun.
Topiramate may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

- What does Topamax Sprinkle (Topiramate) look like?
What is the most important information I should know about Topamax Sprinkle (Topiramate)?
Topiramate may cause harm to an unborn baby, but having a seizure during pregnancy could harm both the mother and the baby. Tell your doctor right away if you become pregnant while taking topiramate for seizures. Do not start or stop taking topiramate during pregnancy without your doctor's advice.
Seek emergency medical attention if you have a sudden change in vision or pain around or behind the eyes. These may be early signs of a serious and permanent side effect on your vision.
Do not stop using topiramate without first talking to your doctor, even if you feel fine. You may have increased seizures if you stop using topiramate suddenly. You may need to use less and less before you stop the medication completely.
Contact your doctor if your seizures get worse or you have them more often while taking topiramate.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Topamax Sprinkle (Topiramate)?
You should not use topiramate if you are allergic to it.
To make sure you can safely take topiramate, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:
- kidney disease or a history of kidney stones
- liver disease
- glaucoma
- a history of depression or suicide attempt
- a growth disorder
- a history of metabolic acidosis
- osteoporosis or low bone density
- asthma, emphysema, or other breathing disorder; or
- if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant while using topiramate
You may have thoughts about suicide while taking topiramate. Tell your doctor if you have new or worsening symptoms of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts. Your family or other caregivers should also be alert to changes in your mood or symptoms. Your doctor will need to check you at regular visits.
FDA pregnancy category D. Taking topiramate during pregnancy may increase the risk of cleft lip and/or cleft palate in the newborn. Do not start taking topiramate without telling your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. Use effective birth control while you are taking topiramate.
Seizure control is very important during pregnancy. The benefit of preventing seizures may outweigh any risks posed by taking topiramate. Follow your doctor's instructions about taking topiramate while you are pregnant.
Although topiramate may harm an unborn baby, having a seizure during pregnancy could harm both mother and baby. If you become pregnant while taking topiramate, do not stop taking the medicine without your doctor's advice.
Topiramate can make birth control pills less effective. Ask your doctor about using a non-hormone method of birth control (such as a condom, diaphragm, spermicide) to prevent pregnancy while taking topiramate. If you are not planning a pregnancy while taking topiramate, use effective birth control, and tell your doctor if you become pregnant during treatment.
Topiramate can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

Cordoba is a city with an incredible cultural and historical legacy. Its strategic location, close to the once navigable Guadalquivir River, is home to a rich heritage of different people. All cultures that have inhabited this city have left their mark; Romans, Arabs, Jews and Christians had deposited a singular artistic-historical patrimony.
The UNESCO recognized the universal significance of the historic wealth of Cordoba in 1994, extending the title of World Heritage Site not only to the Mosque - Cathedral, but also to the whole city that surrounds it.
In addition, Cordoba is the gastronomical capital of Andalusia, as some of their magnificent chefs have endeavored to combine innovative approaches to traditional dishes from the area.
In Cordoba, the Mosque impresses as one of the most outstanding monuments in the world. Its stunning patios, profusely decorated with flowers, and pink sunsets and quaint streets make a visit to Cordoba and its province is full of surprises well worth the experience.
