America Rising Already Preparing For 2016 And Hillary Clinton
While getting ready to take on the Democrats in 2014, the team at America Rising is preparing for 2016 to make sure voters get all the facts about Hillary Clinton:
CNN : "Republican operatives are openly worrying about a Clinton coronation in 2016, so they plan to make use of it early. To that end, groups such as the America Rising super PAC - led by Mitt Romney's former campaign manager Matt Rhoades - are gearing up. Defining Clinton on their terms is the first order of business. One of the organizers pointed out to CNN that this group marks the earliest sustained effort in preparing for a presidential campaign and that they plan to move in earnest in a couple of months to begin defining the potential 2016 Democratic hopefuls. Their aim is to engage Clinton well before she is able to put a full campaign staff in place."
Time: "The Clinton fears have Republicans gearing up early for the 2016 campaign. America Rising, the new GOP super PAC founded by former RNC and Romney aides, has already begun digging up opposition research on Clinton, along with other potential Democratic candidates."
RealClearPolitics.com : "Even partisan Republicans have little incentive to criticize her — though Clinton's GOP opponents don't intend to let the honeymoon continue much longer. The strategists behind America Rising — a Republican firm established last month to conduct opposition research for GOP groups and candidates — are particularly keen to set the tone for the likely media reassessment of Clinton's record. 'We're going to be building the research and video infrastructure for the right looking ahead to 2016 this year — earlier than its ever been done in a presidential cycle,' Tim Miller, the group's spokesperson, told RCP. 'This will allow us to hold Hillary accountable for all her various permutations over the decades and begin redefining her before she has a formal campaign apparatus.'"

When we were finally on the top of the Island Peak
May 29, 2009
It's difficult to translate in words what we felt and what we saw when we were finally on the top of the Island Peak.
The day was absolutely fantastic – we were very lucky. We have reached the top of the Island Peak mountain at 09:00h in the morning and everything was just perfect. What sensational views! Everywhere we looked at we just could see big mountains. It's amazing!
We would like to thank our climbing guide Mr. Pen Sherpa for his great professionalism. He has a great knowledge about these mountains.
We sincerely think that he is one of the best climbing guides we may find in Nepal. The two young sherpa that were with us were also very friendly and kind always worried with our well be and hydration. We only disposed of 2 weeks to be in Nepal and climb the Island Peak and Himalayan Glacier has an option that turned our wishes possible. What we did was very hard and atypical when climbing in Himalaya.
We would like to thank Himalayan Glacier Trekking for taking care of all the arrangement and for having understood our needs. Without their help our dream of climb a peak in Himalayan would have been impossible.
To climb Island Peak only in two weeks it's important to be in a very good physical condition since you will have to walk 6-7hr in average per day. You don't have time to acclimatize well. You have to do it wile you are walking and you will always sleep at high altitudes so it's important to drink a lot of liquids and eat nice and energetic food. It's very easy to loose the appetite at high altitudes.
For those people that like us don't have much time to climb in Nepal, the good news are that there are agencies like Himalayan Glacier that can arrange a plan that fills your needs.
Best regards
Pedro and Sílvia and Group

Island Peak climbing and expedition 2009
May 20, 2009
In this April'09 we decided to climb the Island Peak using the services of Himalayan Glacier. The acclimation, going to Everest Base Camp and Kala-Pathar, is a very nice trek and we were so lucky each day with weather. After used the Khangmala pass, we arrived to the Island Peak area and, after two days, we achieved the summit using the Base Camp and high camp (for a better acclimation). It was a sunny day but only us did the peak this morning! We were alone in front the Lothse wall! We came back to Luckla without any problem and still with good weather (a lot of mantras had been done!).
The support, help, and friendly and reasonable company of our guides, porters, and drivers was excellent in our trip. Specially thanks to Parkesh (trek-guide), Tiangzin (climbing-guide), and Chet (supervisor). I can highly recommend the Himalayan Glacier Trekking and staff for anyone who is planning to visit their country.

Last September we arrived to Nepal for a trek to Island and Mera Peak. This was the second time we were flying from Kathmandu to Lukla with Himalayan Glacier trekking. In September 2007, we were caught in Khare by a strong snowfall that kept us inside the tent for a week. We did not climb the mountain but this turned out not to worry us in any extent: we felt great of simply being there and when heading for Lukla again we already knew we would come back very soon.

Back to Australia after Island Peak climbing
November 28, 2008
Well I arrived back in Australia a few days ago, and I must say that the warm weather is nice! I just felt the need to write to you and tell you how much I enjoyed my trek to Everest base camp and the Island Peak climb and how impressed I was with the Himalayan Glacier Trekking. I was very surprised when you still chose to continue with my trip when all of the other participants had to cancel out. Obviously, running the trip for one person was not highly profitable for you but you still provided every service that you originally advertised.

i'm not lakyn, but just to clarify Hayley is not 12 and is welll suited to Lakyn thank you for your irrelevant opinion though xxx
Because Lakyn is just about to tour, there is no new photos and not anymore news that comes out daily.
so to keep this blog alive, we decided to begin posting local acts that need support or are calming to listen to. Supporting Australian music is eventually putting more aussie musicians in the industry. Also, our friends that are in bands have asked if we can promote them to our large amount of followers xxx
hi lovely, i have no clue when you sent this because i never got the notification so i'm really really sorry! but of course, anything to help anyone else out! xxx

All puppies need to be socialized, and if you've adopted a dog from a shelter or bought an older dog, you may need to spend time socializing him, too. Sometimes a dog gets into a fight with another dog at a dog park or at a friend's house, and it leaves him wary of other dogs. A new person or pet in the home can cause a dog to need socializing again also. It's important to make sure your dog or puppy is well socialized with people, new things in his environment, and other pets in the home.
Socializing a Puppy
Just like kids, a puppy's early life can set the stage for how he behaves and his ability to accept new things in his life. The first 8 – 20 weeks are extremely important for your pup's development, and that's the best age to begin socializing a puppy. It's up to his owner to make sure he's exposed to new things on a regular basis so he has an opportunity to learn what's expected from him and how to act when confronted with something new.
He needs to be exposed to people, other pets in the home, other dogs and new places, sounds, sights and smells. He needs to experience things he'll have to deal with in his life. And he needs to be able to learn in a positive way so he's not apprehensive when something new comes his way later on in his life. Because a puppy hasn't received all of his vaccinations yet, check with your vet for advice on when you can expose your pup to other dogs and people outside the home. Your pup is also capable of learning basic commands at an early age, which helps him learn who's in charge.
Introduce your pup to new people and situations during this period. You will want him to meet men, women, older people, children and other pets. Expose him to people riding bikes, skateboards, men with beards, people in uniforms, and women/men with short and long hair. Dogs do notice the differences in people, and the more your pup has a chance to meet different people, the more confident and calm he'll be.

For sheer excitement, drama, and clutch reasons---not to mention amazing hand-eye coordination---Marian Gaborik's overtime winner against Boston on Wednesday is this week's top play. Still winless at that point, and just having coughed up a 3-2 lead with 4:23 to play in the third period, the Rangers headed to overtime at The Garden desperate for a victory. It took Gaborik only 27 seconds to provide the winner, netting his third goal of the game on a breakaway. Adding to the beauty of the goal is that Gaborik's first shot is stopped by Boston goalie Tuukka Rask, but Gaborik bats the puck out of mid-air and into the cage for the decisive score.

The best thing to do, to instantly give yourself about 5 more keys or so to have easy access to is to switch your movement keys to ESDF instead of the norm WASD. You know have access to A, Y, H, B, N, U, J, to use as keybinds also.
Works great for me, takes a little to get used to but once you do, its great. I mainly use it this way becuase I dont really use the number keys since I dont have their positions engraved into my mind and you cant afford to look down at your keyboard at all in PvP.
gavinwestberg said...
I do the same thing, but my movement keys are W,E,R,D.
Also, I generally don't use 1,2,3,4,5. I mapped these to A,S,F,G,T
Q is interrupt or "oh shit"
Z,X are utility or CDs
C,V,B are usually AoE spells or an alternative rotation of some kind
Also have a mouse button 4 and mouse button 5 (usually CC or taunt).
I generally mouse click major CDs. I generally don't use shift or ctrl modifiers except for pet commands.
Important! Changing keybinds will make the next time you group a disaster, especially if you're a tank or healer. People will hate you. But, after a couple times you will see the dramatic improvement that remapping keybinds gives you.
Jim Cleveland said...
I decided to try something other than WASD a long time ago. After much trial and error I settled on the following setup for movement...
A = Strafe Left
S = Toggle autorun
D = Walk backwards
F = Strafe Right
Some notes:
It takes a while to get used to
I dont miss the "walk forward" key. I find the toggle autorun is better since I dont need to hold it down. It frees up a finger.
My hand is in a more natural position, essentially 1 key to the right on the keyboard - it brings the little finger in to play much more.
I have easy access to more ability buttons - 23QWERTGV.
There is extended access to others - 145THZXCB.
Because I have autorun, my fingers nabitually hover over A, W, E & F.
Malabar Front said...
Shifting over to ESDF not only provides a whole row of extra keys to your left, the F key usually has a little blob on to helpefully and reliably allow you to locate it without ever having to look down.
My strategy with keybindings is to never have to move my middle finger away from the Move Forward (E) key, so movement is never limited while I'm activating abilities. Using the S & F keys for strafe, and using the right mouse button for turning also helps immensely.
So now I have Q, W, R, T, A, G, \, Z, C, and V, as well as the Shift and Ctrl keys easily within reach without compromising my ability to move and attack/heal at the same time.

Some notes from the Northrop girls track regional Tuesday.
Star sprinter missing for Bruins
The host Bruins won their fifth straight regional and 21st overall with 78 points.
Northrop is ranked No. 2 this year, all the while missing its top sprinter from last year, Alexis Scott, to an injury.
"It is really great about our team that we have our No. 1 sprinter out due to an injury, and yet we have a sophomore (Jailyn Krantz) stepping up (in the 400-meter relay), and she has done beautifully," Northrop coach Harmony Ake said.
Both the 400 and 1,600 relay teams won easily.
There is a chance Scott could return for the state meet June 1, but Ake wasn't sure she wanted to make any changes to something that has already been working all year with the relays.
Ruich sprints to win
Carroll senior Melanie Ruich won the 3,200 in 11 minutes, 14.66 seconds and basically outsprinted Bellmont freshman Bailey Beery (11:15.21) after eight laps.
"I was scared (Beery) was going to catch up with me, so that made me go faster," Ruich said.
New schools
There were several new schools at the regional after the IHSAA realigned things to send some schools south of Fort Wayne, going all the way into Howard and Cass counties to Northrop, while having northern counties go to Warsaw, a new regional site.
Eastern from Greentown finished fourth in the meet with 55 ½ points and Brittany Neeley set two regional records in the 3,200 relay (9:01.27) and 800 (2:11.40).
Carroll's Olivia Hippensteel matched the former record and finished second in the 800 in 2:12.70.

When asked which Polish athlete has a chance at the London Olympics I immediately thought of the shot put champion Tomasz Majewski.
For those who have never seen Tomasz in real life, it can be a bit intimidating. I have always considered myself tall at 192cm (6 feet, 3 inches), but when I first met Tomasz I suddenly felt very small. With a height of 2.4 meters (7 feet 10 inches) and weighing 140 kg (308 pounds), Tomasz is overpowering. He reminded me of Hercules with his long dark hair up in a pony tail. He also has a nice warm smile he puts on easily, so being around him is relaxed and easy right from the first handshake.
I wanted to photograph Tomasz training for the Olympics and he was kind enough to let me just be around him during his daily training and routines. So for the next few weeks I was watching him shot putting, running, jumping, lifting weights and preparing for the biggest sporting event, held every four years. With just one arm he lifted more than I could bench press with all my strength.
I also accompanied him during family moments with his wife Anna and their newly born son Mikolaj. One of the most touching moments was photographing Tomasz holding, with so much care in his huge hands, tiny Mikolaj. The bare torso Hercules was morphing into a gentle giant in front of my eyes.
Tomasz would only agree to this picture after consulting with his wife – another example of a gentle spirit in this massive body that forced me to extend the background I had prepared and brought along for the portrait.

As they try to shore up their rosters for the rest of the summer and the start of training camp, the Buffalo Sabres have signed two more of their restricted free agents.
I'll give you a hint, one of them isn't Cody Hodgson.
Today the Buffalo Sabres general manager Darcy Regier announced the team has come to terms with Brian Flynn and Nick Crawford. Brian Flynn joined the Buffalo Sabres last year as a call up under newly promoted head coach Ron Rolston – and scored six goals and eleven points for the Blue and Gold. Flynn gets rewarded with a two year contract Flynn is an undrafted free agent that signed with the Buffalo Sabres in March of 2012, and appeared in 50 games across two seasons with the Rochester Americans before joining the Sabres last season.
Nick Crawford gets a one year deal with the Buffalo Sabres. Crawford has spent the last three seasons with the Buffalo Sabres top AHL affiliate, and in 199 games with the Portland Pirates and Rochester Americans scored 18 goals and 72 points.
While this helps shore things up for the Buffalo Sabres – it does leave Cody Hodgson without a contract. Either the Buffalo Sabres are waiting for an offer sheet on Hodgson to match it and save from having to do any negotiations, or they are waiting on an offersheet to stock up on draft picks.
If they know what Hodgson is looking for as far as payment, they could be hoping for the best and almost begging teams to sign him to those numbers.
- $1,110,249 or below – No Compensation
- Over $1,110,249 to $1,682,194 – 3rd round pick
- Over $1,682,194 to $3,364,391 – 2nd round pick
- Over $3,364,391 to $5,046,585 – 1st round pick, 3rd
I can't see a team paying more than the five million dollar and change cap, but if they did, the Sabres could be looking at more than just a couple of picks.
- Over $5,046,585 to $6,728,781 – 1st round pick, 2nd, 3rd
- Over $6,728,781 To $8,410,976 – Two 1st Round Picks, 2nd, 3rd
- Over $8,410,976 – Four 1st Round Picks
I see the Sabres getting a first and a third out of a Hodgson offer sheet at best.

(WHAS11) -- A study by researchers in Philadelphia and Sweden finds people over 75 smell the best.
Study participants smelled three different age groups: 20 to 30, 45 to 55 and 75 to 95.
Researchers say our body odor goes through several stages as we age and they wanted to see if people could identify age based on scent.
Participants could only tell the seniors' smells distinctly. The study is published in the journal "Plus One."

Dumb Witness: A Hercule Poirot Mysteryby Agatha Christie
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The Queen of Mystery has come to Harper Collins! Agatha Christie, the acknowledged mistress of suspense—creator of indomitable sleuth Miss Marple, meticulous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, and so many other unforgettable characters—brings her entire oeuvre of ingenious whodunits, locked room mysteries, and perplexing puzzles to Harper Paperbacks. In Dumb Witness, Hercule Poirot investigates the very suspicious death of an elderly spinster who, fearing the very worst, had written to the great detective prior to her demise.
Everyone blamed Emily Arundells accident on a rubber ball left on the stairs by her frisky terrier. But the more she thought about her fall, the more convinced she became that one of her relatives was trying to kill her.…
On April 17th she wrote her suspicions in a letter to Hercule Poirot. Mysteriously, he didnt receive the letter until June 28th…by which time Emily was already dead.…
About the Author
Agatha Christie is the world's best known mystery writer. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in 44 foreign languages. She is the most widely published author of all time in any language, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare.
Her writing career spanned more than half a century, during which she wrote 79 novels and short story collections, as well as 14 plays, one of which, The Mousetrap,is the longest-running play in history. Two of the characters she created, the brilliant little Belgian Hercule Poirot and the irrepressible and relentless Miss Marple, went on to become world-famous detectives. Both have been widely dramatized in feature films and made-for-TV movies.
Agatha Christie also wrote six romantic novels under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott. As well, she wrote four nonfiction books including an autobiography and an entertaining account of the many expeditions she shared with her archaeologist husband Sir Max Mallowan.
Agatha Christie died in 1976.

Chapter Six0 Reviews
After the safe house is attacked, Kylie and Wesley must flee to safety.
Finally he sighed and got up, giving up on sleep. He opened the door to his room, and stepped out in the hallway, when his sensitive ears picked up a sound.
He stopped and listened, then realized what the sound was. He swore and took a step toward Kylie's door, when a boom filled the mansion.
He looked toward the stairs, and saw smoke billowing up them. The bastards had blown open the door, they had found the safe house and were now inside.
He turned and started toward Kylie's door, when Angel came running up.
"They're everywhere," she said, and he nodded, grabbing her arm and pulling her into Kylie's room with him.
Kylie sat up in bed, her eyes wide with fear, watching them.
"What's happened?" She asked, as Wesley closed the door and pushed a dresser in front of it.
"Thorne's people," Angel said, "they've found you and have blasted through the door of the safe house. Soon they'll be up here, we don't have much time."
"Take Kylie," Wesley said, "make sure she gets to safety. I'll hold them off."
"No!" Kylie cried, getting out of bed and hugging him tightly. "I won't leave without you."
Gently he lifted her head, and stared in her eyes.
"I'll be right behind you," he said, "I promise."
"That's a lie," she said and he nodded, then quickly kissed her, before handing her to Angel.
Angel pulled her over to the window and opened it up.
"It's a long way down," Kylie said, as the pounding at the door started. "How are we going to leave this way?"
Angel smiled, and grasped Kylie around the waist. With a strength belying her slim form she pulled Kylie into the window and then jumped. Kylie's scream was cut short when instead of plummeting to the ground, wings furled out of Angel's back and they swooped away from the mansion.
Wesley watched to make sure they got away safely, then he summoned his sword, holding it in front of him as the door splintered open. Tabatha stepped inside, her eyes taking a feral gleam when she saw Wesley.
"Where is the woman Wesley?" She asked, "the master is eager to..meet her."
"She's safe," he said, as he stepped slowly toward the window.
Tabatha saw the direction of his path and snarled, her eyes changing color.
She summoned her sword and started toward him as he reached the window.
"Sorry Tabatha," he said, "today's not your lucky day."
Then he leapt out of the window, shedding his clothes as he plunged toward the ground. Just before he hit, he changed into his dragon form and swooped away from the safe house, Tabatha's cry of rage echoing in his ears.
He changed back into a man, knowing that Tabatha and her companions would be searching for him in the sky. He quickly summoned some clothes and dressed, then ran through the forest, keeping an eye on the sky.
Finally he reached the cave that was the arranged meeting point if the safe house was ever compromised.
He entered the cave and ducked quickly as something flew at his head.
"Damn it," he swore, "it's Wesley."
Angel came out of the dimness and hugged him tightly. He followed her into the cave and was surprised to see only Kylie there.
"Where are the others?" He asked, turning and looking at Angel.
She shook her head.
"I went back after I got Kylie to safety," she said, "they're all dead. We're the only ones left."

5 Best Free Dropbox Alternatives
Each time the term 'cloud storage' happens in our considerations we wind up partner it with Dropbox. That much is the popularity Dropbox earned through its dependable services in a compass of five years. Each triumph has rivalry and Dropbox is no special case. Roused by Dropbox, numerous other known firms have started cloud storage services at standard and superior to Dropbox. In this article, we will investigate such Dropbox alternatives.
Assuming that the sum of this sounds gullible to you, you presumably are not familiar with Dropbox or cloud storage. I recommend you first get to realize what Dropbox is, before perusing further. In this post I have gathered 5 best alternatives of Dropbox that are completely worth an attempt.
Box is acknowledged to be the best alternative to Dropbox without a doubt. Started a few prior years Dropbox, Box has got great client base to which it serves through three sorts of records – Enterprise account, Business record and individual record. The service is freemium styled with the free record offering 5 GB free storage. The other two paid records accompany particular higher closure characteristics like upgraded transfer speed, secret key ensured offering, client service, Google applications coordination and a lot of people more.
Teamdriver likewise accompanies three records sorts – Free , Personal and Professional. The free form gives a free storage of 2gb which might be developed further upto 10 GB through referrals. The characteristic that emerges in Teamdrive is its security calculation. Teamdriver conveys AES-256 calculation encryption for securing our information. Also, you can likewise pick between the default Teamdrive cloud or the own Teamdrive server. Due to its inalienable security characteristic, Teamdrive is a perfect decision for ventures.
Skydrive is a generally new consideration in Microsoft's enormously insulted Live services. Be that as it may with Skydrive Live got a real facelift. The super-star characteristic of Skydrive that makes it attempt capable is the baiting 7 GB cloud storage space that accompanies the free record. This thumps off the rivalry to a vast degree, letting Skydrive make one of the best Dropbox alternatives. Actually, Skydrive does not synchronize record and envelopes over LAN. An alternate significant characteristic is that the indexes saved in Skydrive might be entered and chipped away at collectively with a group straightforwardly online through Office Web Apps.
The best part about Google Drive is that it is totally incorporated with Google Docs. Thusly, commonly, Google Drive looks virtually like Google Docs. Separated from the local Google Docs, there are numerous other unbiased gathering applications running from business applications to relaxation applications that might be reconciled with our Drive. On the more, Google Sync application permits synchronizing particular organizers not at all like most other Dropbox alternatives and Dropbox itself. Google Drive gives 5gb of free space which could be redesigned. Google Drives permits seeing around the range of 30 sorts of documents without needing to depend on distinctive index particular programming. An alternate extraordinary characteristic is that individuals seeing an index in the meantime can visit with one another right inside Google Drive.
Like most other cloud storage services, Amazon Cloud Drive furnishes 5gb free storage. The service is moved down the capable, super quick Amazon server (which controls Dropbox also). The best perspective about Amazon Cloud Drive is the whooping 2gb index size transfer help for a solitary document. To upgrade the security, Cloud Drive permits files/folders matchup between just 8 mechanisms. On the downside, Amazon does not permit imparting of the archived documents and organizers with open.
Taking a gander at the characteristics offered by such a large number of known brands, it doesn't would appear that an awful thought to get our hands of some of them. Isn't that right?

South Carolina's defensive super star Jadeveon Clowney is catching a lot of backlash for his decision to sit out against the Kentucky Wildcats. Apparently he went up to head coach Steve Spurrier before the game and said he couldn't go.
Spurrier says Clowney told him just before game he couldn't play. "I will just say he told me he couldn't play."
— Josh Kendall (@JoshatTheState) October 6, 2013
Spurrier on Clowney: "If he wants to play, we will welcome him to come play for the team if he wants."
— Josh Kendall (@JoshatTheState) October 6, 2013
At least it was a game against Kentucky, it wasn't like he sat out against LSU or Alabama. Nevertheless, he has become the butt of jokes and the subject of great debate. Some claim he is within his rights to protect his health, some think it was out of line for him to tell his coach he wasn't playing.
ESPN College GameDay's Desmond Howard took a great shot at both Jadeveon Clowney and the Miami Heat's Dwayne Wade in one incredibly awesome tweet.
Who does he think he is, Clowney? RT @ByTimReynolds Wade says he's not playing tonight.

As we all know—or should since there are several questions on the tests about this—you are authorized to transmit when your name and call sign appears in the FCC's Universal Licensing System database, NOT when your license arrives in the mail. Even so, it's sometimes nice to have a piece of paper attesting to your accomplishment in passing the test. That is perhaps one reason that someone on the Ham Radio Help Group mailing list asked how long he should wait before becoming concerned about when his license would arrive in the mail.
While others were quick to point out that he didn't really need the piece of paper, Terry, WA7PML, pointed out that you can print out a "reference copy" right from the FCC website. Here's how:
- Go to the FCC's Universal Licensing System website.
- Search for a callsign.
- Select the callsign to display the license data page.
- Click on "Reference Copy".
Terry also pointed out that the AE7Q website has a page that allows you to print out an even fancier version. Check it out. It lets you specify different fonts and the color of the FCC watermark.

I've always liked The Shining, the movie version that is. So, I decided it was time to finally read the book. For those who don't know, The Shining is the story of Jack Torrance, his wife Windy, and his six-year-old son, Danny. Jack gets a job as the winter caretaker of a hotel that closes down for the season. He's looking for a fresh start, and in the book version, he's trying to finish writing a play that he's been working on for some time.

A growing number of local breweries are opening their doors for tours and tastings, but not all are created equal. Frederick's Flying Dog Brewery offers the most extensive and educational experience in the area. Not only do you see beer being made, and learn about the difference between a fermentation tank and a lauter tun, but you taste the beer in different stages, as it moves from the sweet, sticky wort (malt steeped in hot water) to fermented, carbonated beer.
This week's Try This column is about tours at Flying Dog, which are offered every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. (Reservations are required, and weekend tours fill up well in advance.) It's one of the best deals around: At the end of a tour, not only will you know more about how beer is brewed, but you get to try samples of any five Flying Dog beers in the taproom.

The owner of the Martinez Sports Bar, Ignacio Martinez, told KIMA (http://bit.ly/10sSvAP ) he would like to have nude dancers at his bar, and he also plans a new location. He says adult entertainment will bring more people to Wapato.

5 Things You Need to Know About the Apple Watch
Written on September 10, 2014 at 1:06 pm , by Bethany Cianciolo
Clearly, wearable tech is having a major moment. So much so that tech giant Apple is throwing their hat in the game, and we're pretty stoked to get our hands on their latest product.
The Apple Watch, set to release early next year, will include three collections—the regular Watch collection, the Edition collection (sleeker, sexier and fancier), and what we're most excited about—the Sport collection. (We're already designating this as a late holiday gift to ourselves. No shame.)
Here's what you need to know about the Apple Watch Sport:
It's a phone and health tracker in one. Each watch starts at a hefty $349, but it provides an extra fitness punch than your average phone or independent tracker. So in addition to monitoring your activity levels, you can still send and receive texts, answer calls, use Siri, stay on top of events, access boarding passes, etc. It syncs with your iPhone, too, so you can start a message on your watch and finish it later on your phone.
It's durable and light. Because it's made out of a really flexible material, you won't have to worry about it feeling chunky or clunky while you're exercising. It shouldn't feel any different than having a Garmin or Timex strapped onto your wrist.
It adjusts easily. You pick the fit!
There will be some really cool new apps. Specifically, there's the Activity app, which tracks your daily activity. It shows you how many calories you've burned, how many minutes of exercise you've done, and how often you've stood throughout the day. The Workout app motivates you to rev your sweat with mid-workout reminders that you're almost done and gives you summaries of each specific sweat session. The watch even uses the Fitness app on your iPhone to help you set goals based on your workout history. Oh, and with the new WatchKit program, developers can create new apps that adapt with the watch. No word yet on existing apps, but we're hoping to see some of our favorites (we're looking at you, RunKeeper and MyFitnessPal) on our wrists.
Match it to your outfit. Fashion is officially an important component for designers to think about when developing new gear—which is why we're seeing new lines like this one pop up on the reg. The Apple Watch Sport will have two different sizes and five different colors: blue, pink, green, white and black, so you can coordinate to your fave shade.

Featured Fitterati: Running Blog Black Girls Run
Written on July 31, 2012 at 1:15 pm , by Karla Walsh
Each Tuesday, we're highlighting one category of winners from our Fitterati Blogger Awards! This week the spotlight is on the Best Running Blogs!
First up, the pair behind Black Girls Run.
Toni Carey
- 28, Norfolk, Virginia
Ashley Hicks
- 28, New York City
Toni and Ashley want to start a running revolution. While they hope to inspire all women to get active, join running groups and find fun, nearby races, they are especially passionate about getting women of color in the game. As they note on their blog Black Girls Run, 80 percent of African-American women are overweight, and as a result, are at higher risk for chronic diseases. All they need is a little sweat-spiration.
Post-run eats "A veggie burger is really filling but doesn't feel like I've 'undone' my workout." — Ashley
Tech tips "I don't think I could make it through my workouts without my Nike+ and Pandora apps to keep me motivated and energized. Music is what gets me through long runs." — Toni
Medal-winning running gear "CW-X compression tights are amazing and I love to run in Mizuno sneakers for their great fit. The Wave Creations are my current favorite." — Ashley
Locker room treats "Deodorant is key. You have to be fresh!" — Toni
"I always stock Yes to Carrots cleansing wipes and body butter to freshen up a bit and keep my skin moisturized." — Ashley

Featured Fitterati: Personal Trainer Blog Sweet Tooth Sweet Life
Written on July 24, 2012 at 2:45 pm , by Karla Walsh
Each Tuesday, we're highlighting one category of winners from our Fitterati Blogger Awards! This week, we're bringing in the pros with the Best Personal Trainer Blogs!
Courtney Horan
- 28, Troy, New York
One cannot live solely on cupcakes…or solely on crunches, for that matter. Sweet Tooth Sweet Life's Courtney is an awesome model of moderation, hitting the gym early in the day and eating a healthy dinner, and treating herself to dessert (Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies!). Talk about the sweet life.
Top training tool "I recently started using a Gymboss timer. It's great for tracking the minutes when I'm working with clients and teaching my Tabata class."
Morning motivation "Knowing that my workout is totally done for the day and I have the whole evening off makes it easier to skip the snooze and hit the gym. But really, knowing I only have to shower once is the biggest motivator!"
Perfect post-workout snack "I love anything with a good mix of protein and carbohydrates, like a Chobani Greek yogurt with fresh berries, nut butter on whole-wheat crackers or a shake made with a frozen banana and protein powder."

Golden Globes Time: My Fit-Favorites Are…
Written on January 13, 2012 at 11:54 am , by Jenna Autuori
In the spirit of award season and Sunday's Golden Globes, here's my list of fit-winners this year!
Workout Trend That's Taking Over The World: SoulCycle
The cult-following studio that's been all the buzz this past year is the 6-year-old SoulCycle—the spinning sensation that rides to the beat of the music. With four studios in Manhattan, two in the Hamptons, another in Scarsdale, New York, and ones coming to Roslyn, Long Island and Greenwich, Connecticut, get ready for the spinning boutique of the century to take over the world, literally. Opening next month in West Hollywood, California—with locations following in Brentwood and beyond—this A-list favorite workout (Katie Holmes, Jake Gyllenhaal, Kelly Ripa and Alec Baldwin are all staples on the saddle) just keeps getting bigger..and better.
Featuring over seven daily sessions in all locations, plus regular fun-themed rides—Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, even Twilight Breaking Dawn cycle-parties—this studio is not only a 500-plus calorie dropping workout, it's the place. to. be. on any day of the week. (Where else is there a waiting list for 6 a.m. workouts?)The captivating playlists plus theatrical performances by instructors who push you through sprints, hill climbs and strengthen-until-you-fatigue dumbbell sessions makes SoulCycle the workout of the year.
Stay tuned for much more happenings, like the special launch of this month's limited edition Swarvoski crystal (1,650 of them jewels) encrusted iPhone cases, designed by the Villency Design Group. Available at studio locations and soul-cycle.com, the $250 price tag won't keep even the loyalist fans away. Can't make it to a studio? Get some soul from the comfort of your very own home with the spring 2012 cheery yellow SoulCycle-branded spinning bike. See, what'd I tell you? This workout is taking over the world, and we're totally, totally psyched about it.
Best Collaboration:Jillian Michaels & K-Swiss
The former Biggest Loser trainer and The Doctors contributor, teamed up with K-Swiss a year ago and since then she's taken over everyone's sweat-sessions through totally awesome K-Swiss sneakers, tanks, sweats and apparel that will make you look just like her (if only her abs came included). My favorites were the JM for K-Swiss tanks that read "Saddlebags Suck" (got lots of looks walking through Equinox with that one) and one with her famous mantra "Blow Your Body's Mind". With the start of the new year, resolutions, and post-holiday shape-ups comes the launch of Jillian and K-Swiss' "The Party's Over" ad campaign with Lady Foot Locker. (It's one of those rare times we'll see this little lady all glammed out like it's time for the ball circa 1950.) TV's favorite trainer may no longer grace us on Tuesday nights, but we can use her for motivation every time we lace up with the K-Swiss Blade-Max shoes. Check out K-Swiss and Lady Foot Locker's Facebook pages for exclusive videos from Jillian—workout tips and more never stop coming from our pint-sized workout queen.

Should You Start Barefoot Running?
Written on October 11, 2011 at 7:00 am , by fitsugar
Has the sight of celebs traipsing around town in Vibram FiveFingers made you anxious to start barefoot running? Responding to the minimalist shoe craze, the American Council on Exercise decided to test out those barefoot running shoes to see how they fared for normal everyday runners. The council tested Vibram's Bilkia model on 16 recreational joggers and compared their performance running in these shoes, regular neutral shoes, and running barefoot. So, should you dip your toes into the barefoot running trend?
The pros
When correctly done, running in a minimalist shoe can decrease the risk of injury. During their tests, half of the participants switched running styles when they went barefoot or wore Vibrams. They landed more lightly and on the balls of their feet (forefront style), instead of on their heels (rear-strike style) like they did when wearing the neutral shoes. This decreased their risk of injury by upping plantar flexion, or downward flexing of the front of the foot toward the sole. All Vibram wearers, regardless of running style, also lowered knee flexion — another way to reduce risk of injury.
The cons
As much as minimal or barefoot running can help decrease injury, it can be hard to jump right into. Although the runners tested had two weeks to run in their Vibrams before test day to get comfortable with them, half still maintained their rear-strike running style while running barefoot or in the Vibrams, leading to higher loading rates when they ran (which can mean more stress on the body overall). And the runners also pronated more in their Vibrams, which can also lead to a higher risk of overuse injuries.
Read on for more about barefoot running.

10 Ways to Save Money While Staying Healthy
Written on September 29, 2011 at 10:59 am , by Karla Walsh
Fancy home gym equipment, organic food and a wardrobe of the latest fitness apparel can be pricey, but consumer savings expert Andrea Woroch says that doesn't have to be the case. "As a young girl, I tagged along with my mom on shopping trips and learned that you don't have to spend a lot to look good," she explains.
Woroch herself ranks health as one of her top priorities (besides helping others save money), and loves bike riding, hiking, running, swimming and skiing—"anything and everything that gets me moving."
So we asked Woroch to share her insider intel about how we all can keep our wallets happy while staying fit and looking and feeling great.
1. Subscribe. Group coupon emails offer deals for more than clothes shopping and restaurant meals! "Sites like LivingSocial and Dealery often offer discounts for health clubs, fitness studios and outdoor activities at up to 70 percent off," Woroch says. Another plus? There's no long-term commitment, so if you like, you can just continue trying new things based on what is offering a coupon!
2. Take advantage of free trials. "Request free or deeply discounted trial memberships from various gyms and fitness studios you're thinking about joining," Woroch suggests. This way you can find your favorite before getting locked in with a location that may not be your favorite.
3. Use technology. Online coupon sites like RetailMeNot and SmartSource offer a wide variety of discounts for online or in-store shopping at grocery, fitness specialty stores and more. Combine coupons you find online for stores like Whole Foods with what's on special when you get to the store to score even bigger savings.

Fashion Diaries: Why Do We Workout?
Written on June 24, 2011 at 9:13 am , by Marla Horenbein
Everyone here at FITNESS seems to have their own workout regimen that helps them stay fit during the summer. Whether it's taking classes at SoulCycle like our fitness editor Jenna does, trying a trampoline class like Karla our editorial assistant, or doing yoga in the park with the lovelies over at Lululemon, it's important to do what makes you feel good—and of course, look good.
My personal favorite way to exercise is to hit the streets and go for a run. Since I ran my first half-marathon in April, I have been addicted to the sport and can't wait to run the Philadelphia Half in November! But for the fashion team, hitting the gym hard (like Melissa does) or going for a jog (like Argy and I do) means more than just burning calories and getting our endorphins flowing. We exercise so that we can look good in all of the season's latest fashions!
Here are some of our favorite summer workout pieces that we wear so that we can look amazing in the gym—then out for a night on the town.
Run (clockwise from top): Champion bra, $40, championusa.com. Skull Candy earbuds, $50, skullcandy.com. Camelbak water bottle, $30, camelbak.com. Saucony sneakers, $90, saucony.com. Adidas by Stella McCartney shorts,$75, shopadidas.com. Helly Hansen tank, $40, hellyhansen.com.
Play (clockwise from top): Mosley Tribes sunglasses, $180, mosleytribes.com. Marc by Marc Jacobs dress, $280, net-a-porter.com. Lanvin shoes, $417, net-a-porter.com. Dannijo bracelet, $488, dannijo.com. Asos clutch,$78, asos.com. Essie nail polish,$8, essie.com.
Now tell us: Does fashion (especially the skin-baring styles of summer!) inspire you to stay in shape?

I Tried It: JumpSport Trampoline Workout
Written on June 6, 2011 at 3:46 pm , by Karla Walsh
A few weeks ago, I shook up my fitness routine (literally!) and tried a 45-minute class on a JumpSport Fitness Trampoline. It may seem a little like '80s retro aerobics, but the mini-trampoline has received a makeover—and is a great workout!
The JumpSport upgrades your traditional mini-trampoline with stretchy cords rather than metal springs (good for the less-coordinated among us who may find themselves occasionally stepping off the surface). It's also equipped with sturdy legs perfect for supporting strength moves while you're balancing on the JumpSport's side, such as triceps dips or push-ups.
We started off getting comfortable with the surface area we could work with, then practiced high, bouncy jumps. And for the meat of the workout, personal trainer and group fitness instructor Abbie Appel led the class through quick, low bursts with fast feet designed to strengthen the lower half while keeping the heart pumping. Think of holding a semi-squat and bringing your knees up just a few inches before pushing them down into the trampoline repeatedly—using the springing action as resistance rather than to propel you up certainly makes the exercise more challenging!
My favorite move from the class? A ski-like hop with our arms extended straight out at shoulder height. We bounced like popcorn from side-to-side while toning our legs and obliques. But the entire class was a blast. Time to resurrect the retro rebounder!
Now tell us: Which former fitness trend do you wish would make a comeback?

My Summer Sweat-It-Out Gear Picks
Written on May 26, 2011 at 12:14 pm , by Jenna Autuori
Since we're kicking off summer this Memorial Day weekend, it's time to stock up on some new running and workout apparel essentials. I'm always excited to try new things, so I was really excited when these products hit my desk:
SNEAKERS: Mizuno Wave Prophecy
What makes these shoes stand out? They don't have the usual mid-layer strip of foam for support. The technology consists of "wave" plates so you really feel like you're gliding on your run. When I tested these, I was amazed at how easy (aka low-impact) my run had felt on my feet after doing my usual 4-mile morning trip. There's no other way to describe it than feeling like I bounced down 2nd Avenue of NYC! I'll gladly embrace this new style as long as Mizuno keeps producing such a unique-fitting shoe.
TANK: Lululemon Circuit Tank
The brand that loves to mix trendy designs, uber comfort and the versatile style of an everyday tank introduced us to the awesomely supportive Circuit Tank. With this top, no extra bra is needed (yippee!) since the shelf-bra has adjustable notches to go as tight or as loose-fitting as you need. Plus, the open back and criss-cross straps gives the person behind you in class something cool to look at. I'm totally in the wear-and-wash everyday stage with this new tank from my faves over at Lululemon.
SHORTS: The North Face Better Than Naked Shorts
I was fortunate enough to get a sneak peak of this style a year ago when they started the line with an easy-breezy jacket…that felt. like. butter. So what's not to love about summer running shorts that feel like they're barely there when the heat gets turned up on a mid-day jog? You literally do not even realize you've got your bottoms on (which could be a good thing or bad thing depending on how you look at it!), because the material is so lightweight, so silky, so smooth and just perfect for anyone who wants to go minimalist on a sweltering hot day. You'll find me in these shorts as I start training for my first marathon.
SPORTS BRA: Sexy Bra from JM for K-Swiss
I'm a Bikram Yoga fanatic so I'm always looking for cute but functional apparel for the barely-there styles I sport during class. Let's face it: If you've tried hot yoga, you know that it's just easiest to wear as little clothes as possible because things get sweaty in that room! So when Jillian Michaels debuted her first-ever collection with K-Swiss, I was immediately drawn to this sexy, yet supportive sports bra from my favorite trainer. It holds your babies in, but also looks pretty sexy with a pair of moisture-wicking short shorts. No matter the time of the year, you can find me sweating it out in my weekly Bikram class. Looking as good as I'm feeling is a must! This sports bra is good for classes, yoga or even under a light-weight tank on a nice summer day. (JM for K-Swiss is also a top pick in our Summer Gear Guide story in our June issue. Find it on newsstands now!)
Now tell us: What apparel makes your summer workouts cool and comfortable?

Hot New Item: Tommy Bahama Electric Beach Cruiser
Written on May 13, 2011 at 11:06 am , by Marla Horenbein
Since it is National Bike Month (did you check out our previous post about it?), the fashion department decided we just had to share this awesome new bike that we saw at the Tommy Bahama preview the other day. Yes I said it, a Tommy Bahama bike. Known for their luxury island living-inspired clothes, Tommy Bahama hit the nail on the head with this one.
After teaming up with Pedego, a leading electric bike company, Tommy Bahama will be marketing and manufacturing electric cruisers that are lightweight and totally fun to ride around on. While they are on the pricier end ($2,700!) we still think that they are a great wish list item.

The dinosaur that is "cable" tv needs to evolve or die. I would gladly pay for just the channels i want to watch and not the 45 channels of junk i have to take with them to get what i want.
I want ala carte TV so bad. My wife and I are about to "cut the cord" and get rid of satellite and just use a home theater PC, our PS3 and XBox, and our AppleTV for content. We can save almost a $100 a month that way.
Once this type of service catches on, which I believe it will, I can guarantee that the Internet providers will somehow find a way to charge people extra.
The thing that makes it tougher to get rid of cable is that if you only have their high speed internet they charge you an extra arm to only have one service.
A Jailbroken AppleTV has been a god send for us. It very quickly paid for itself with the money saved on the ditched satellite service.
I got rid of cable/satellite almost a decade ago. Hulu, Netflix, and others make it so easy to watch exactly what you want, when you want. Plus, a media server, a ps3, and decent bit torrenting can yield significant results as well.
Aereo + HuluPlus = what, $20per month? with no Cable needed. Sayin...
Finally canceled our cable at the house, sickbeard and sabnzbd are the way to go.
I can understand why everyone is for this idea with Apple Tv set, but cable company's do play a vital role in competition which is good for us as consumers. I have cable tv and Netflix, and personally I think Netflix has gotten horrible over the last couple months to where I think I might cancel that and keep my cable. I don't think it's possible to just get by on streaming services like Hulu and Netflix. What about things like "OnDemand"? They is an amazing amount of content on there. Comcast just released its own version of Netflix called "Streampix." in about two days there was 2400 titles on there. I just still find value in having live tv because of things like the news and other live vents that have to preloaded and take days of not weeks to populate servers for you tool watch. Plus has everyone forgotten about DVr service?! I just think in the end, content streaming and ondemand services are the new era, but they are still in their early stages of evolution .
