The trout have returned
After a terrible 1996, a dissapointing spring this year and an extremely hot summer, it seems that the sea trout are now returning to the Danish coasts.
There are consistent reports from all our coasts and both fly and spin fishers are catching fish in a respectable number and in good sizes too.
The recent weeks have seen a lot of harsh, cold, north-western wind, which is not very good for the fishing but very good for the water. We have had some severe examples of oxygen deficit this year, but the colder weather and the wind has restored much of the water. A few places - like the Mariager Fjord - will not be itself right away, but the catastrophic incident here with total destruction of all life, has brought political focus on the problems with farmland polluting with nutrients.

Statement of Significance (as of designation - November 4, 1993):
The Caguana (Capa) Site represents the largest and most complex ball court ceremonial site in Puerto Rico and the West Indies. Investigation of the site demonstrated the sophistication of Taino ceremonialism and organization during the Late Prehistoric and Early Contact Period, and provided the basis for defining the Capa Phase (1200-1500).
Since the Caguana archeological park was established in the 1950s, tropical weather and rampant tree roots have combined to undermine and knock down the stones lining the ball courts. Those stones bearing petroglyphs have been worn down and decayed to the point that these prehistoric works of art may be irretrievably lost.
There is no change since the lat report.

It's the last one of the series! Can you believe it? Everyone give Noel a big hand for surviving these and pumping out so many of these videos in a row. It's not easy!

Castle Rock Cash In - Children of the Corn 8
1 comment:
This is a weird little movie. But it's got its selling points. Almost all of the acting is fairly good, for one thing. And the cinematography is fairly good, which at a certain point seems to have become a bit of a recurring theme with these sequels.ReplyDelete
You've also got to love just how few children, and just how little corn, is in it. In a strange way, I find it to be rather admirable.

Can Prostate Cancer Be Cured – Discover the Truth
Any man in his late forties upwards has a big possibility of either having prostate problems, or being aware of someone who does? How can this be stated so confidently?
Because figures show that one in two men aged 50 and over will suffer from some form of prostate problem during their life, and that between 70 and 90% of men aged over 80 years will have such problems. We will be looking at a variety of issues in this article surrounding such problems, and the ultimate questions to be answered will be; can prostate cancer be cured by any means?
It should be said here that there are a lot of scaremongers out there who state that an enlarged prostate will eventually lead to cancer. The true fact of the matter is that an enlarged prostate is not cancer, and it does not raise your risk of getting prostate cancer.
Having said this it is still far better to know if you have any prostate problems as early as possible as they can then be treated quickly, and you should not have to worry about a cure for prostate cancer.
Let us have a look at some of the reasons you are at risk of getting prostate cancer:
Reasons You Could Get Prostate Cancer
Age – As we get older our risk of prostate cancer increases. It is understood that the average age of diagnosis is 65 years old.
Family History – If prostate issues run in your family you are at a higher risk of contracting the disease yourself
Race – The disease is much more common in African-American men. Reasons for this are not yet fully understood, but it is understandable that they have more reason than most to wish for a cure to cancer of the prostate!
Diet – Although experts disagree on this point it is thought that if you eat a diet which is high in saturated fats and red meat you may be heightening your risk of prostate cancer.
Now Let Us Look At Two Stages Of The Cancer:
Early stage prostate cancer
This means that the growth is in its early stages, and has not yet spread to other parts of your body. Your doctor can generally do something about this, and have the tumor removed. There will be a need for further treatment, so, is this type of cancer curable in the early stages? The answer is; Yes.
Advanced prostate cancer
This is when the cancer has spread outside of the prostate, and is by far the most serious type. Although prescription drugs, or high quality all-natural supplements will help with advanced prostate cancer at the moment there is no permanent cure.
So, can prostate cancer be cured in the advanced stage? The answer is; No, but there are treatments available that can help alleviate your pain.
In conclusion, it cannot be stressed how vital it is to go for regular check-ups to see if you are developing prostate problems. If you catch this disease early you have a far greater chance of fighting, and beating it.

'White Collar' peek: Assassins and Hilarie Burton
What has Neal Caffrey gotten himself into this time?
Everybody's favorite "White Collar" art forger ( Matt Bomer) gets mistaken for a cold-blooded assassin. Watch this extended clip for Tuesday's (Aug. 10) episode "Unfinished Business."
Neal gets the inkling he's meant to off an insurance investigator when he gets his hands on some major hardware. We think this whole clip, as serious as it's supposed to be, is hilarious, especially when the driver keeps saying, "As you requested."
What we don't see in this clip is "One Tree Hill's" Hilarie Burton, who you can catch in the promo below.
What's she doing there, and why is she having semi-flirtatious banter with Neal? Check back because Zap2it's Carina MacKenzie spoke with Burton to get the 411 on her "White Collar" guest spot.
In the meantime, there's this:

ONLY one hub of high-tech activity flourishes across national borders - the Medicon Valley biotech cluster in Scandinavia. But when it comes to attracting an international blend of scientists to this region, success is harder to guarantee.
Companies in the Medicon Valley cluster, which stretches from the Danish capital of Copenhagen across the south-western toe of Sweden, are finding it difficult to recruit scientists from overseas. "We have rainy weather and it's cold," laughs Stig Flindt of healthcare giant Novo Nordisk, based near Copenhagen. So on the basis of climate, at least, they cannot compete with biotech centres such as California. Instead they rely on the region's growing reputation in biotechnology to lure top-flight researchers.
There are now more than 500 biotech, pharmaceutical and medical technology companies registered with the Medicon Valley Academy, an organisation that monitors and promotes development in the region. Most are home-grown start-ups that were established ...

When was the last time we posted something good for ISU?
It was announced today by WHO TV in Des Moines that John Meeks of Des Moines Roosevelt has decommited from Nebraska and will now go to Iowa State. Johns older brother Blake was going to Nebraska but has transferred to NC school of the Arts, prompting John to change his mind. Meeks is undefeated through his high school career.
I love watching this kid wrestle and if Iowa cant get him, I'm glad he's going to ISU where I'll still get to see him on a regular basis. Good pickup for KJ!

A property maintenance law now under consideration by the town of Warrensburg board members would prohibit grass or wild plants growing over 6 inches tall in one's yard, residential or commercial, whether the property is vacant or not. it would also require the removal of dead tree limbs, and prohibit peeling paint on structures, or surfaces unprotected and exposed to the weather.
Stories this photo appears in:
Proposed law bans unsound structures, tall grass, dead limbs
In an effort to boost the town's image and quality of life, Warrensburg's leaders are considering a comprehensive property maintenance law that would require property owners to keep their homes, yards and business premises tidy and well maintained.

You have been there. It's a scene we have all lived through. Our child is having a meltdown at the store. You have lost control of your kid. People are looking at you. Some raise their eyebrows, some snicker, some just walk away.
In Lexington, Kentucky, when one mother was continuing to shop while her child was having a tantrum along side her cart, one 19 year old said in a loud voice, "Man, some people need to learn how to control their f**king kids." He was saying it to Matt Walsh, a local talk show host who was shopping there too. Dumb move kid. Matt, who has twins, understands, like all us Dads do. Sometimes kids lose it. What's critical is that we don't. The mom is this situation was fantastic. Here is the blog post.
Matt has received nearly 11,000 comments to his post. Some really bad ones, but most are good. What was the reaction from Todd and Kent? You will have to listen. But we give a little more, because Kent talks about his wife and how she would have handled the situation. Meanwhile, Todd actually throws his wife under the bus. Hey, he didn't back over her, and it was a small Electric Vehicle.
How to control your kids. Do these two have answers? Hell no. Bu they have some advice given to them on how to handle it from some big time pros. They also have a take on this mom's reaction. Plus they also talk about how handle Allowance, which might take care of these meltdowns. It's the just the beginning of that conversation.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The University of New Hampshire Athletic Department in conjunction with America East and NeuLion, Inc., is proud to announce the unveiling of AmericaEast.TV, a comprehensive digital network built to expand the content and reach of the conference's digital presence beginning with the 2013 fall sports season.
AmericaEast.TV, the first-ever conference-wide digital platform, will provide live streaming of an unprecedented number of events from eight of the nine institutions, as well as on-demand video content including interviews, feature stories and highlights throughout the year. Sports that will have live streaming of all events, highlights and and feature stories includes: field hockey, men's basketball, men's soccer, swimming & diving, volleyball, women's basketball, women's lacrosse and women's soccer. Cross-country and track & field will have limited live streaming for events but will have highlights and feature stories.
Fans of UNH football, gymnastics, men's ice hockey and women's ice hockey will continue to have access available through UNHWildcats.TV. Additionally, high definition content, play-by-play commentary and multiple camera angles on select games will remain available through a single event purchase or an all-access pass for the 2013-14 year.
Most importantly for fans, the platform, delivered by NeuLion, will be free of charge for all users. Users will have access to AmericaEast.TV on multiple devices, including PCs, smartphones and tablets, meaning fans the chance to watch America East teams on any device, anytime and anywhere.
"The debut of AmericaEast.TV is a significant step in expanding our brand in the digital space," said America East Commissioner Amy Huchthausen. "We are excited to be working with NeuLion on this endeavor, which will provide a high-volume of free live and on-demand content for all fans as we continue to focus on increasing the exposure of our great institutions and conference."
The newly created network offers marketers an opportunity to reach targeted audiences both regionally and nationally, while enhancing the conference's presence in the digital landscape. The league also has a television contract with ESPN, which includes live event coverage of men's and women's basketball as well as the men's and women's lacrosse championship games.
Powered by the NeuLion College Platform, AmericaEast.TV will be available to fans at the end of August with the beginning of the fall sports season, in conjunction with a redesigned AmericaEast.com. The network will feature 10 unique channels on an easy-to-navigate interface. New Hampshire will be represented each of the conference's nine member institutions to have its own school-branded channel featuring live and/or on-demand video content across a variety of conference sports, while the America East will have its own conference-wide channel featuring all available digital content and all team championship action. Due to an existing agreement, the University of Vermont will continue to stream its home live events for free through the Northeast Sports Network in 2013-14; however, on-demand content will be available through AmericaEast.TV.
"We are extremely excited to expand our long-standing relationship with the America East with the launching of the all new Digital Network," said Ed O'Brien, Vice President, NeuLion. "AmericaEast.TV represents a huge collaborative effort coordinated by Amy and her staff. We can't wait to get the product out to fans so they can experience it first-hand on PC, mobile and tablet."

THE latest cancer vaccine has an unusual target. It attacks tumours by killing growing blood vessels, starving the cancers of blood.
Because it targets normal, healthy cells, cancers can't evade its effects by mutating. And the same vaccine could be given to everyone, instead of having to be tailored to specific cancers. It might provide long-term protection from many cancers.
Trials of drugs that block the growth of the blood vessels that feed tumours have been disappointing. So Ralph Reisfeld and Andreas Niethammer of the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California, created a vaccine to make the immune system attack new blood vessels.
Their team added the gene for a protein called FLK-1, found on cells in new blood vessels, to

What I can tell you, based on Microsoft's own performance testing, is that you will need 200% more processor power to handle the public key encryption (PKI) overhead. So, you will want to watch processor utilization carefully if you do enable SSL on your existing Exchange server. Again, enabling SSL is not an option in my opinion if you want to allow Internet users to connect.

realise that South Asia doesn't trade at all within itself compared, let's say, to the states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)? Free trade destroys many orders. It destroys the "self-sufficient" or socialist state fearing international finance. It also destroys boundaries that maintain separated identities and destroys ideologies that work only under insulation. It destroys the internal dominance of the state, too. Are India and Pakistan prepared to destroy some of their most cherished tenets?
Tribal societies, based on delimited food-scarce territories, are undermined by trade. Warriors don't like trade and traders, but are partial to smuggling. The national security state, with a backlog of just wars to be fought for national honour, is aghast at the prospect of becoming "feminine" through accepting the "insertion" of enemy exports. Alas, both India and Pakistan are internationally rated as "non-exporting" countries.
The SAFTA agreement that both signed contains Article 8, which refers to the "removal of intra-SAARC barriers to investment" while making it possible for the weaker economies to seek protection through the "rules of fair competition". India is arousing global ire because of its trade barriers, but it is getting away with its introversion after the world economy itself succumbed to being more and more "gated" after the recent collapse of international finance.
Who wants trade more, India or Pakistan? Pakistan wants it more, but its motive is "hidden" and therefore, paradoxically, noble: it wants to get rid of external war to which it contributes proxy warriors. India, on the other hand, is suspicious of Pakistani motives and, less honourably, mixes electoral politics with the question of trade. The Indian voter is angry with Pakistan, all right, but how can one remove the cause of it unless both states trade freely and allow cross-border investments?
The economist of today is the most subversive philosopher in history since Socrates. Imagine India using trade routes that spread like arteries across Pakistan's sacred territory and the two-nation doctrine succumbing to the self-seeking passions of the non-warrior. Pakistan is a corridor of nothing, unless India violates it with its manufactures. How humiliating!
Pakistan is fast losing territory and culture to a creed that can only be compared to medieval Muslim conquests. It doesn't feel it is being conquered because it is ideologically prepared for defeat. But, economically, this creeping transformation presages an end to the modern state through a retreat into a Hobbesian purgatory, where Islam rewards the heroics of bank-looting and kidnapping. This is the scenario after the Taliban succeed in setting up their emirate inside Pakistan.
The real death of Pakistan is coming gradually through the death of its culture. People make fun of "enlightenment" and "moderation" because they see the anti-cultural forces within and without the state winning territory on a daily basis. (Pervez Musharraf's decree of 2006 to remove jihad from the textbooks was ignored by the provinces and the new textbooks actually made fun of "enlightenment" as an "alien doctrine"!)
Free trade and culture go hand in hand. The "monoculture" of free trade (read globalisation) …continued »

Mapping veins as a human 'bar code'

The technology is based on an infrared scan of the blood cells running through veins, which is then analyzed by a computer.
Luminetx originally developed the technique as a way to help doctors and nurses find veins in patients needing injections. But now, through a new division called Snowflake Technologies, the company is marketing it to banks, credit card companies and even homeland-security officials as a high-tech biometric identification tool.
"Our vein structures are completely different, especially when you look at the palm," said Luminetx Chief Executive Officer Jim Phillips, speaking at The Entertainment Gathering conference here Wednesday. "In a way, it's like looking at a bar code. We convert your veins to a bar code."
The drive for technology that can uniquely identify individuals has been given new urgency by the ongoing threat of terrorist attacks and the growing incidence of identity theft.
Basic biometric tools such as fingerprinting and retinal scans are now being widely installed at airports and other transit points. Biometrics experts in the United States and Europe are trying to develop standards that can help unify a fast-changing industry.
Some of the older tools have been found to be relatively easily bypassed, however. Researchers at Clarkson University have found that fingerprint scanners could be fooled with images lifted from Play-Doh, for example, or a model of a finger made with dental plaster.
Reproducing a three-dimensional model of a human vein system, complete with blood, could be more difficult, however.
Luminetx isn't the only group of researchers to pinpoint vein structure as a biometric breakthrough. Fujitsu is has already launched its own "Contactless Palm Vein Authentication" system and has sold more than 5,000 units in Japan.
To date, Luminetx has focused sales of its $25,000 machines to hospitals. The medical tool uses the infrared scanner to detect veins up to half an inch under the skin, analyzes the data in real time with a Pentium 4 computer, and then projects a digital image back onto the skin. The resulting ghostly greenish image looks a little like a cartoon X-ray, showing the precise locations of veins under the skin.
The company was granted a patent for the biometric applications of the technology last September.
Phillips said his company is still in the early stages of talking to financial and securities companies, and he would not talk about any negotiations taking place. He said he's sensitive to potential privacy concerns, but he believes the dangers of identity theft and other terrorism justify creating technology to help with the near-perfect identification of individuals.
"We're moving into a lot of different areas of society," Phillips said. "That's exciting, but a little bit frightening."

- But veins and corpuscles in fingers and parts of the hand often get cut and/or bruises and occasionally new veins and corpuscles make their way around damaged tissue.
Getting in a fight, banging your finger with a hammer, cutting your hand with a knife, getting a splinter stuck somwhere in your hand, etc... the possibilities are unlimited.
That said... how efficient this technology will be able to detect and/or match such changes is something that remains to be seen.

Types of Bullying
School Bullying Statistics
School bullying statistics in the United Stats show that about one in four kids in the U.S. are bullied on a regular basis. Between cyber bullying and bullying at school, the school bullying statistics illustrate a huge problem with bullying and the American school system.
In a recent SAFE survey, teens in grades sixth through 10th grade are the most likely to be involved in activities related to bullying. About thirty percent of students in the United States are involved in bullying on a regular basis either as a victim, bully or both. These school bullying statistics show what a problem bullying of all kinds in the United States has become. The recent school bullying statistics show that cyber bullying is becoming increasingly prevalent on school property as well as involving students even when they are not at school. Because of this growing number of kids affected by bullying, more and more schools throughout the country are cracking down on the measures taken to stop bullying.
School Bullying Statistics:
When it comes to verbal bullying, this type of bullying is the most common type with about 77 percent of all students being bullied verbally in some way or another including mental bullying or even verbal abuse. These types of bullying can also include spreading rumors, yelling obscenities or other derogatory terms based on an individual's race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. Out of the 77 percent of those bullied, 14 percent have a severe or bad reaction to the abuse, according to recent school bullying statistics. These numbers make up the students that experience poor self-esteem, depression, anxiety about going to school and even suicidal thoughts (bullycide) as a result of being bullied by their peers. Also as part of this study, about one in five students admitted they are responsible for bullying their peers. Almost half of all students fear harassment or bullying in the bathroom at school, according to these school bullying statistics. As a result of this fear and anxiety of being bullied, many students will make excuses or find ways around going to school. School bullying statistics also reveal that teens ages 12-17 believe they have seen violence increase at their schools. In fact, these numbers also show that most violent altercations between students are more likely to occur on school grounds than on the way to school for many teens.
One of the most unfortunate parts of these school bullying statistics is that in about 85 percent of bullying cases, no intervention or effort is made by a teacher or administration member of the school to stop the bullying from taking place. However, now that more and more schools are taking an active approach to cut down on the number of students that live in fear of being bullied, the numbers will go down.
As social networking and online social interaction becomes more and more popular with sites like Facebook and Twitter, cyberbullying has become one of the most prevalent types of bullying that occurs between teens. About 80 percent of all high school students have encountered being bullied in some fashion online. These growing numbers are being attributed to youth violence including both homicide and suicide. While school shootings across the country are becoming more and more common, most teens that say they have considered becoming violent toward their peers, wish to do so because they want to get back at those who have bullied them online. About 35 percent of teens have been actually threatened online. About half of all teens admit they have said something mean or hurtful to another teen online. Most have done it more than once.
Putting an End to Bullying:
These numbers are too high, and parents and teachers need to do something to stop it. Teens also need to stand together and put an end to bullying. When teens see their peers being bullied, they need to report the incident or get help. If teens band together to address these issues, they really don't have to worry about being the target of a bully since most bullies really only attack those that are weaker than them. By standing together to prevent bullying in every school, the number of depressed and suicidal teens can drop along with those who fear for their life while attending school.

News of Riverton, Lander and Fremont County, Wyoming, from the Ranger's award winning journalists.
Suspect says 'not guilty' to killing in September
Dec 12, 2012 - From staff reports
Second-degree murder suspect Dustin Nickelson entered a not-guilty plea during his arraignment Tuesday in Lander District Court.
Nickelson, 23, has been in custody on a $1 million bond since Sept. 13, when he was arrested in connection with the shooting death of Lucas Myhre, 27, of Riverton. The shooting reportedly took place at about 9:30 p.m. in front of Nickelson's apartment at 811 E. Adams Ave. in Riverton.
Nickelson's girlfriend is listed as a witness in the incident, but defense attorney Stephen Palmer requested that the two be allowed to have phone contact while Nickelson is incarcerated. He added that their conversations could be recorded to ensure they do not discuss the case.
"They have some matters to clear up," Palmer said. "They had been living together."
Prosecutors for the state opposed the request, citing a need to maintain the integrity of the case against someone charged with taking a human life. Judge Norman E. Young continued Nickelson's bond as it was previously structured.
Autopsy reports showed that Myhre was under the influence of methamphetamines at the time of his death. The autopsy also determined that seven bullets had struck Myhre's body, causing 18 wounds to his head, arms, shoulder, back, thigh and body cavity. Nickelson reportedly told police at the scene that he had "fired on" Myhre eight times with his SAR .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol.
Police said Myhre had intended to visit Nickelson's neighbor Sept. 13 but had knocked on Nickelson's door accidentally. Nickelson reportedly "pulled a gun on" Myhre at that point, and Myhre went next-door.
Nickelson reportedly followed soon afterward, knocking on the neighbor's door "loudly" and asking who Myhre was. Police said Nickelson was holding the gun at that point, and he reportedly said Myhre need to "chill ... out." Nickelson and Myhre reportedly exchanged words, and Myhre pushed Nickelson before others in the apartment intervened.
Nickelson reportedly left, and Myhre went outside to speak with three people who had been waiting for him in a vehicle. According to reports, he told the occupants of the vehicle about his encounter with Nickelson and asked if they wanted to see "a guy get beat up."
Myhre reportedly returned to Nickelson's apartment and apologized to Nickelson, then "called him on" to fight outside of the apartment. Myhre reportedly said he would take Nickelson's gun, and Nickelson said he did not want to go outside and fight. Officers said Myhre took a "step in an aggression act towards" Nickelson as Nickelson was standing inside of the apartment building. Nickelson reportedly removed the safety lock from his weapon and fired the gun.
Officers said Myhre was lying facedown on the sidewalk in front of the steps to Nickelson's apartment when they arrived at the scene. Responders reportedly tried for 10 minutes to resuscitate Myhre, who showed no signs of life. Medical personnel confirmed at the scene that he had died, according to court documents.

My Wifes First Motorcycle Trip and her "Biker Stories from the Road"
This ride report is taken from my wife's emails she sent back to her coworkers and family as we travelled. I have filled in some blanks and added the photos but otherwise it is a pretty complete report from a gal who said she would NEVER get on a motorcycle. The report will follow but to set the story I need to give some background so bare with me for a bit.
My story is not a lot different from a lot of others. I had ridden bikes for years but as the family was being raised they slowly slipped into the background. On top of that my wife had absolutely no interest. Many times I would say "when the kids move out lets get motorcycles and go travelling" and the answer was always the same. "Absolutely NOT!" She would never ride on one let alone drive one.
Well I had talked her into running and she said she would never do that either so I just let it be…..for now.
When the kids grew up and started living on their own I decided that I would like to get a bike again. I had always wanted a Harley Sportster but a fellow at work was selling an older Honda 450 Nighthawk so I settled for that. Little did I know how significant getting the cheap Honda was over an expensive Sportster.
I was just looking for something to take the pinch out if the gas bill and maybe satisfy my old desire to get a bike again so picked it up. The Honda ran nice and I used it but a couple of my friends were also getting bikes and they were getting more dual sport style bikes. It became very apparent that I was not going to be able to go the places they were going on that Honda so over the winter I got myself a nice used Kawasaki KLR 650.
It was what I thought to be the perfect bike. It could take me to work, got great gas mileage and could head out on the highway at the drop of a hat. That summer someone mentioned taking a trip out west. I thought no way we are taking those dirt bikes all the way out there so just to shut them out I said "if we go we have to go to Yellowstone". My wife and I had gone there 10 year previous and it was beautiful. To my surprise everyone agreed and after much planning we headed out west. That trip was the clincher. It was 2 weeks of fabulous, the scenery, and everything was just perfect.
All I could think about as we travelled was "How can I get Denise (my wife) to do this?" I mean, I like my buddies, but Denise and I travel well together and I thought if I could just get her to try maybe one day we could do this.
When I arrived home I started planting the seed. I told her that travelling with the guys was fun but I really would want her to come. It was also around this time that a few of my friends wife's were also either talking about getting bikes or had actually got one. She finally relented and a few weeks later I found a nice lowered KLR that would fit her perfectly.
We spent the remainder of that fall with her riding around the local golf course parking lot learning how to drive a bike. She admitted that it was kind of cool and the next spring took a riding course and we took a few nice little trips with all of our friends. It was a fun way to spend the summer days and evenings.
I was set to retire a year down the road and had it in my mind that my retirement gift to myself was going to be a nice new motorcycle to travel with. My wife still had to work for 5 years so she would just use her KLR until then.
I had a short list of bikes, the Suzuki VStrom, Honda Veradaro, or a BMW F800 or 650GS, One cool snowy November day while on a trip to the city I walked into the BMW dealer and sitting in the window was a new F800GS 30 year Anniversary edition. I was set to retire in one year after working 30 years full time and I knew karma was set. I was going to own that bike. They actually had 2 bikes there on sale and the other one was a nicely loaded Blue F650GS. My wife was at another function so when I went to pick her up I said "I had found the bike I wanted" lets go look at it. We had some time to kill so we drove over to take a look. As we drove over I casually mentioned that the F650 and to my surprise she just said oh ya in a positive sort of way. Long story short we walked out of that dealership with seriously less money that we walked in with but we had 2 of the greatest bikes we could afford and I was estatic.
I immediately began secretly planning a trip. It would be basically the same trip I had taken with the guys and close to the trip we had so enjoyed many years ago. I planned it (and an alternate route in case of bad weather) out and laid the plans out to her and to my surprise she said OK "let's do it". "We did not buy those great bikes to sit in the garage, lets get some kilometers on them!"
We picked up the bikes in March.
There was still snow and ice so we trailered them home
The Trip!
I had retired just a few short weeks prior and had taken a trip around Lake Superior with my friends. A few days after returning Denise and I headed out on what could either be the end of or the start of a fantastic relationship with my wife, me and motorcycles. I will let Denise's stories (with some of my input to fill gaps) take it from here.

Day 1 September 18, 2011
We left Dryden Ontario on September 18th 2011.
I am driving a 2010 BMW F800GS and she is riding a 2010 BMW F650GS.
This was to be Denise's first big motorcycle trip. The plan was to head west and try to get into Montana and Wyoming. It was a cloudy day when we left but rain was threatened so we suited up as we said goodbye to her mom and dad.. A cold wet shivery stop at Clearwater bay just west of Kenora had us wondering what the rest of the trip would be like. The forecast was for clear skies so all we could do is put our faith in the forecasters and keep heading on.
By the time we made it to Steinbach MB the sun had come out and we were rewarded with it's warmth and headed down Hwy 59 to the border. A pleasant (need sarcasm tag) crossing of the border and we continued down hwy 59 to finish the day at Warren MN. Spent the night at a nice little motel "The Elm Crest" and with a plan to head a bit further south and then travel Hwy 2 due west we watched the weather forecast that night.
There was some talk of some rain in northern Montana and western NDakota but morning found us waking up to a brilliant blue sky.
Day 1 map
Day 2 September 19th, 2011
We left Warren in the morning after a pleasant breakfast at Melody's cafe.
The weather was cool but the sun warm. The wind was reasonable but would increase as the day presented itself.
One of the goals of this trip was to travel secondary highways, eat and stay at non franchise mom and pop type restaurants and motels. Motels are great for bikes because you can carry your gear in and the bikes are right outside your door for peace of mind in security. We quickly developed the mantra of our trip and it was to be NO INTERSTATES and NO WALMARTS . On just our second day we were forced to eventually travel our first 25 miles of interstate (29) to get down to hwy 2.
As we left Grand Forks ND on a 4 lane highway I felt some disappointment as the road continued to be a very flat windy high speed 4 lane. This class of road was certainly not in the plan but when it comes down to it there are few other ways to get across the plains of the mid west. A couple highlights was the geographic center of North America and Rugby, ND
and then a 50's style diner named Krolls at Minot.
As we left Minot we could see high clouds approaching from the west. Not threatening at all but still I took note as the forecast was for some rain by tonight. We would have to make sure we stopped early enough, but as we headed west the clouds actually started to lighten.
We stopped for gas at Ray ND where a trucker said "You are going to get wet" . I was thinking he was a bit out of it and we decided we would find a place to stay at Williston, ND which was about 40 minutes away. By the time we got to Williston I could see what the trucker had meant. The western sky was going black. It was find shelter and do it soon or run. We did both but I will let Denise's stories from the road carry it from here.

@treadless yes she did ride bicycles, in fact was hit by a truck riding her bike the summer before we bought the motorcycles. Left her pretty skittish about bikes in general.

Biker Stories from the Road - part 1 September 20, 2011
This was a tough day and took no pictures while in Williston. This area is going through a huge oil/gas boom and the city is trying to catch up. The roads have ruts 2 feet deep at the intersections from the unplanned heavy traffic. We find out there has not been an open hotel room there for a couple years. If you are travelling through this part of the US make plans for a place to stay or to travel through.
Picture this ... Williston North Dakota, the Fort MacMurray of the US west with transport trucks and trailers everywhere and we ride in at 6:30 on Monday evening. The oil boom is on and has been apparently for the last 3 years.
We try and find a room but there are none. We ride from one hotel, motel, and inn to another with the same result. There I am following, because what the hell else am I supposed to do, weaving in between all of this traffic. The trucks line every street and that many again are on the move. The Walmart parking lot is jam packed with travel trailers and trucks. People are staying on every square inch of land ... most of it muddy! To the west is a really dark stormy sky.
We have to make a decision to carry on down the highway or find a campsite. So we opt for the campsite. By now it is getting dark and the rain is settling in. We find the most inhospitable camp ground you can possibly imagine. The lady acts like she is doing us the biggest favour ever and she charges us $18 for a teeny tiny spot for our tent. The guys in the next tent are from South Carolina and they are up here looking for work because there isn't any down home. They drive everyday to the oil sites and bug for work.
Anyway, we get the tent setup and it is 8 pm so I go to find the showers. There are signs on the door that say the showers and restrooms are closed at 9 pm ... oh great do they not realize that my 50 year old bladder has night time issues! Inside the shower/restroom building there are signs that say the water for the campground will be turned off on Oct 1st. So this campground is jammed packed with travel trailers of every size .. most of them look like they are not going anywhere so only god knows what they are going to do for water come October.
Garth decides to go and check out the little store because we have not eaten since 3:30 and the store is closed ... even though the "sign" says it will be open until 9 (they must have been running around closing up the shower/restroom buildings). So now we are in our tent and it is raining. We have one little light it is 9 pm ... are we having fun now! Good thing for Atavan, ha ha! I knew that keeping that prescription would pay off. We wake up at 2 am and we both have to pee! So out we go into the rain and pee in the bush behind our tent. I ask GW if he still thinks that the morning will be clear and sun shiney ... hmmmmm. I am up again at 4 am and now the wind is just howling ... watch out Dorothy!
Finally at 7 Garth goes to see if the restrooms are open ... thank goodness they are. Off I go in the pouring rain and I try and take my time doing whatever (and coming up with a few new morning routines) just to waste time so that I don't have to go back to the tent. Alas I head back. GW has checked out the store and they don't open until 9 am. We are so hungry. We are faced with another decision ... we can stay in the tent all day (and become crippled beyond recognition) or we can face the elements and get the hell out of Williston!
But first some breakfast somewhere. So we pack up in the pouring rain and head down the highway to find a restaurant. We walk into a restaurant and "seat ourselves" but we are chased down by a Spanish speaking waitress who is trying to tell us that they don't have a cook. Apparently cook number 1 left for a doctor appointment leaving cook number 2 and she became so overwhelmed with the onslaught of customers that she walked off the job! Well I was dumbfounded and asked her if we could at least have toast and coffee. She took pity on us and we got the best damn tasting toast and coffee ever!
GW studied all the maps and we talked about possible routes and hoped and prayed that our route would take us out of this weather system that had settled in over Williston. So away we go down the highway and the wind was so strong that it was not much fun. We decide to go town by town until we hit Sydney Montana (it was only 40 some miles away) and then we decided to stay in Sydney ... get a room and let everything dry out!
We have our sleeping gear spread out and the wind really helped out in drying out our tent over the back door railing.
Main drag through Sidney, MT
What an adventure so far!

Biker Stories from the Road - September 21 2011
Ok you know how driving in the fog can be a little unnerving but because you are in Dryden and you know where you are going it really isn't that bad ... well try motorcycling through the fog which is accumulating on the face shield of your helmet like rain ... down a highway that you have not been on before ... scarey to say the least!
We left Sydney Montana drove through the fog but eventually drove into a beautiful sunny day. A big blue Montana sky that goes on forever! It was only 8 degrees which was pretty chilly but it got warmer. We drove down highway 200 for most of the day.
Not a well travelled highway but an absolutely beautiful highway and lots of it is newly paved. We just cruised along enjoying the scenery of rolling hills, golden fields, pastures dotted with cows and horses. I didn't realize that cows actually look up to see what is going past ... they really do ... I paid attention to it today and I wondered what they must think ... maybe it is "hmmm nice bikes", haha!
So we are cruising along and we come across these caution signs for road construction ahead ... no workers in sight but a stop light because the highway has been closed to one lane. Now we are the only ones on the highway and it is red when we get there so we stop and we wait ... Garth looks over at me and says I feel like we are in a Monty Python film ... what the hell are we waiting for we are the only ones out here! It was so funny!
We made it to Great Falls Montana which is on highway 89 but a bit north to where we want to be but it is the only place big enough to actually have some place for us to stay. Tomorrow we head south on highway 89 which goes into the mountains.
I just love the reaction we are getting from the old guys that we are meeting along the way. One old trucker approached GW with a big smile and says "she didn't trust your drivin' so she got one herself". One old guy loved our BMW's and wished us a great trip across the States. They always want to know where we are from and are surprised when we tell them. We met a man who worked up at Fort Mac way back when. He actually knew quite a bit about Canada.
We had lunch at the Hilltop Cafe in Jordan Montana today and they had a big map and push pins and all of the visitors were to put the pin where their home town is ... someone from Thunder Bay visited the Hilltop Cafe. They had the best tomato soup I have ever tasted. To this day I have not found any better. The great things about these non franchised local restaurants.
I joked about trying to find "peace and tranquility" on this road trip ... today it was very peaceful on that highway. Guess that is all for now. Stay tuned for more.

Biker Stories from the Road - September 22, 2011
Strawberry and Rhubarb pie for breakfast ... yes sirree it was delicious and warranted after the pitiful breakfast offering from the Super 8 we stayed at Wed night in Great Falls, MT. Bikers, including GW, are all drawn to Super 8's! Riding into the sun coming into town it seemed like everyone was turning in front of us.
Thursday's riding day brought with it a bunch of new experiences. We got out of Great Falls Montana and headed back down highway 200 to find highway 89, which is the historical King's highway, and it runs from Alberta down to Flagstaff Arizona.
GW decided to take a little detour into Belt Montana, which was quite a ride down into the Belt Valley which is surrounded by the Belt Mountains and sits along the Belt River (Americans are so creative, ha ha). Anyway that is where we found the Belt Cafe and had the delicious pie and coffee.
Highway 89 is really spectacular. We crossed over the Kings Hill pass, which was my first mountain pass experience on a motorcycle (4000 ft climb), and then rode along the Belt River. It was really nice and I have come to realize that riding at this time of year lets you escape the busy summer traffic ... there are times when we are the only ones on these highways.
We passed huge cattle ranches along the way. The "Castle Mountain Ranch - Headquarters" has an elaborate archway over their driveway. We have seen some really amazing homes as well.
So we pulled into White Sulfur Springs for lunch, 22 degrees and time to peal off another layer of clothing. I have become quite good at layering ... lots of clothes in the morning and down to shorts and t-shirt by end of day. We found a neat little restaurant and encountered a crusty old guy who was so interested in our journey. He told us that he has a Kimco 500 and he has ridden it up into Alberta.
We also talked with an older man at a gas station who asked us how we were finding the grasshoppers on the road. He said that they had an awful time with the grasshoppers this summer ... he said they even tried to eat his garden hose! So off we go ... lots of cows, horses and then in the middle of nowhere along side the highway ... a fully decorated cedar tree ... I mean sparkly garland (red, silver and blue) and little American flags all over this big cedar tree. Also had a bit of a heart stopper moment when we were following this big truck and travel trailer along some fields. The big irrigation system, you know the kind on wheels, well it was on and very close to the highway. With huge eyes I could see that the end sprinkler was aimed at the highway ... the truck and trailer hit it and water just sprayed everywhere. The air was blue under my helmet as we approached and then the sprinkler changed direction and all we rode through was a wet highway ... thank GOD!
Another highlight of the day was Trixie's Antler Saloon! It reached 29 degrees by the afternoon and that is really hot when you have all your riding gear on ... so GW spots this place, of course in the middle of nowhere, and pulled in.
Picture taken from Facebook page for Trixie's
Trixie was behind the bar and she had some of her regulars in there ... one white haired old gal sitting on her stool in the corner ... she actually greeted us as we walked in ... and then another old couple and the lady was playing the slots. We have a cold non-alcohol drink and in comes another traveller. He orders a vodka and Red Bull drink because he is driving through to Spokane Washington! Only in America!
Picture taken from Facebook page for Trixie's
So we made it to Missoula Montana, Garth was here back in 2000 when he was part of the fire team that came down that summer to help them with their huge fire situation, our bikes are scheduled for oil changes this morning. Another milestone yesterday was my bike hit 5000 k ... I have only had it 6 months.
This afternoon we will head out to Livingston Montana where we can meet up with highway 89 again and head back south. We may be camping the next few nights so will update you when I can.

Biker Stories from the Road - September 23, 2011
Interstate driving is not something that I wanted to do but a biker chick has to do what a biker chick has to do! LOL and actually it didn't go too bad except that even though we were going 110k other travellers passed us like we were standing still.
So we left Missoula after our bike servicing at Big Sky BMW and headed out of the city trying to find Interstate 90.
Big Sky BMW
Fill in from Garth
Missoula is an interesting city. I think that we should come back here and do some more local exploring.
Lot of these old heritage homes near Big Sky
Great service at Big Sky. Here is the lounge where you can wait for your bike. Cold water TV and computer with internet available
Denise's bike packed up. Hepco Becker side bags (with liners) and a Cabela's boundry duffle (100% waterproof). I carried all of the camping gear but she was able to fit all of her stuff in this setup quite easily
Love this "Life needs more green lights" poster that was up in Big Sky's washroom.
Ahead of us was a truck pulling a horse trailer with a horse inside ... its back end facing us. Wanting to get a feeling as to whether Garth knew where we were going I asked him what the route was ... he replied "just follow the horses ass" and I thought "oh I am"!
One thing about interstates ... once you are on them it is really hard to get off and if you are actually looking for something in particular well good luck! But we had to get back on track today.
We roared through Butte Montana and Garth pointed out that overlooking the city from the top of a mountain is a huge white monument of "Our Lady of the Rockies" which is dedicated to Mary the mother of Jesus. It is quite amazing ... it is 90 ft high, the second largest statue in the USA and is a tribute to all mothers.
(Photo credit http://images.travelpod.com/users/da...he-rockies.jpg)
The interstate took us out of the valley and back into the mountains where we crossed the continental divide. The temperature dropped to 26 degrees and it felt like such a relief from the 31.5 in the valley.
We ended our day in Bozeman Montana and it was 30 degrees at 5:30 pm. I was certain that GW was going to insist on camping tonight but alas a "Days Inn" appeared with a "Famous Dave's Barbeque" next door, yahoo!
We are heading into Yellowstone National Park tomorrow, following highway 89, so we will definitely be camping. This weekend has been declared National Parks weekend and the entrance is free. So the weather is beautiful, the entrance is free, and it is Saturday ... hmmmm can you say lots of traffic?
Something else I have noticed on this cross country ride is the smells! Good natural out-in-the-great-outdoors smells. Every new landscape has its own.
