With ice covering yards for a good part of the last month, common sense dictates that fish would dawdle in an early winter slumber during such weather.

To the novice uplander, experienced grouse hunters possess an almost magical ability to find ruffed grouse. But in fact, if you know the bird's habits, anyone can do it. The tricks are being able to recognize prime grouse cover, being willing to walk (and walk, and walk!) -- and finally, when a bird flushes, being on guard and ready to shoot in an instant.

In the past we have talked about treestand shots and the possibility of hitting higher than we want to. That topic brings up another important point: shooting deer at angles -- and this information applies to bowhunters and gunhunters.

I had been trying to figure out a way to do this "trick" that I had been reading up on. Sure enough, it was show time.
My girlfriend and I stood in line for about 5 mins...not targeting anyone in particular. My girlfriend was a little hesitant on me doing it saying, "these ladies don't look like they would give you an upgrade." Just as she finished saying that, a mid 20's gentleman waved us over.
I told him I had a reservation under my name. He than asked for my id. Now, I had already made the sandwich on the way to the registration desk, thinking he would need my players card and CC...when asked for my id, i just had to improvise a bit.
I slid him the id and $20 while asking "do you have any complimentary upgrades." He knew what was up and replied, "let me see what I can do for ya boss."
Sir enough, we got a Grand room which normally runs $50 extra/night (according to him).
It was a great room. On the 11th floor facing the mountains and country club...it also had a fridge. The fridge alone was worth the $20.
All in all, it was a great upgrade and money well spent.
We didn't target any clerk. We got a nice blonde woman in her mid 20's and she was very nice. We gave her the "tip" and she upgraded us to Premium with a view, flat screen, pillow top/down mattresses and a fridge! Beautiful room! plus 4 free drinks to be redeemed at the bar! We also got a free late checkout at 2pm!
Totally worth our $20!
Thursday check in, crowded 3:00 pm. Had two standard rooms booked on slot special packages for 3 nights each. Gal didn't flinch and upgraded my rooms to nice 600 sq. ft. Grand Rooms connecting facing the strip in north tower. What a deal, $3.33 per night more per room. I've been going to Vegas for 35 yrs. and this will be done every time from now on.
I had read about the $20 trick on a website and surely wanted to try this thing out. It was on a Friday Afternoon @ around 3:40 PM, there was a big crowd around the check in counter. I was helped by an Asian lady, who asked for my last name to pull up my details. When asked for my ID and CC, I sandwiched the $20 bill between the two cards. I then asked for the complimentary upgrade, she smiled, thanked me and upgraded me to the Grand Room with Strip View.
I checked in about 1PM on a Thursday afternoon. The front desk was quiet and one of the young men behind the desk waved me over. He was about 25-30 years old and asked me for my last name to look up the reservation.
I had booked a 3 night package, with air, through US Air Vacations, so I wasn't sure if that type of reservation was "upgradeable" but figured why not give it a shot.
So as he acknowledged my three night reservation, I casually asked "Are there any complimentary upgrades available?" His eyes were on his computer screen as he replied "i'm sorry sir, the only upgrades we have available right now are paid upgrades". Just then, he looked up and saw the twenty between my license and credit card and his reaction was palpable. "Ohhhh......., well let me see what I can do sir" was his response with a big smile. He said he had a recently renovated Grand room available with a Strip view on the 15th floor available and I said that sounded great. And it was! These rooms are about 600 square feet, have a sofa, coffee table, comfortable chair with ottoman, refigerator, two walk in closets, very comfortable beds, a work desk with acomfortable work chair and to top it off, Hilton has a deal that if you don't have maid service done that day you get a $10.00 voucher to use in any of their food establishments. So I did that as well and recouped my twenty!
It was on a wednesday night @ 9:00p.m. I was skeptical whether it will work since it was my first time but when i approached the lady and she asked for my id and cc..i sandwiched the $20 in between and asked for a complimentary upgrade. She quickly looked @ the computer and said "Well you have a 400 ft standard room right now....how about i upgrade you to a 650 ft North tower suite @ the 27th floor. I was like "HELL YES" (in my mind of course)...
I don't remember her name but i remember she was in her mid 20's and shes from Costa Rica in her name tag.
Booked a special that they had, arrive on Thursday and stay until Monday and get Sunday night free. So I booked the cheapest room($45 on Thurs. and $59 on Fri., Sat.) and arrived late (11:45pm) on Thursday. Only two clerks working. Got the female. Gave her my name and while she looked up my reservation I put the $20 sandwich on the counter and asked her if any comp. upgrades were available. Since I had my kids with me I asked her if she had anything with 3 beds. She said, "well we are booked this weekend but I can give you a bigger room with two beds and a rollaway." I told her that was fine and as she continued to type, I ask her if she had any of the murphy bed rooms, since I knew they were bigger, and then she said that's what I was getting but she continued to type and then came back with the key cards, 4 of them. So we went up to the room and tried two cards, they didn't work but the third one did. Wow this was a room that was the size of two rooms with two murphy beds on one side and dining table, couch, and wet bar on the other and also had another entrance door. So now I was very happy but wondered why the other cards didn't work. So I tried them on the other entrance door, but they didn't work there either. So I looked at the card envelope again and saw that there was another room number on it. This was the room next to the parlor side of the room. So I tried the keys on that door and low and behold I also had the next connecting room which was a standard size room with a king bed. The wife and I had our own room and the kids had theirs for only $20 extra. Plus with the package, I also got a bunch of discount coupons and like others have said, if you don't have them clean the room, you get a $5 food voucher each day. Since I really had two separate rooms, I got $10.
Got in about midnight after a late flight. This room was booked through a casino host as I was able to get my first two nights comped through player reward points.
Tried, but the hotel was booked solid. I figured he was probably BSing me, and continued to try to schmooze him, but then a couple of guys came in and I overheard their conversation with the clerk next to me, where they were told that the Hilton was completely full that night; they got turned away outright. Obviously no room existed to upgrade me to.
I didn't lose my $20 over this, he was nice and I just pocketed the money, but in any case this ended in failure.
Checked in around 3 PM on a very busy Presidents' Day weekend, so I wasn't expecting a huge upgrade, just a modest one. Handed the clerk the sandwich and asked for a complimentary upgrade. She looked very hard for a few minutes and came up with a Superior room on a high floor with a strip view. These rooms are generally $25/night more expensive than the standard, so it is a modest upgrade but still a good value. I've had a 100% success rate at the LV Hilton (at least 5 times, see my other reviews) with this trick, so feel free to try it here.
Checked in about 3 PM on a very slow Sunday. Only 1 clerk working. I smiled, handed her the sandwich and asked for any complimentary upgrades. She seemed very happy and upgraded me to a nice superior room on a high floor. I've gotten better rooms before, but many of the suites were being used by companies for the big CES convention later in the week and I was staying several days. Still, I've never failed to get an upgrade at the LV Hilton.
Checked in about 4 pm and approached the clerk and asked her about possible upgrades and showed the $20.00 sandwich. She said the hotel was full and had no upgrades. As a matter of fact she said all they had were rooms with double beds and smoking rooms. I pocketed the twenty and she typed away. I then asked her how bad the smoking rooms smelled of cigarettes. She said never mind, I found you another room and this one is a room with a refrigerator and a deluxe room. I would have gotten the room without a tip but I gave her $10.00 anyway and thanked her.
Booked a 3-night stay for Fri/Sat/Sun at $33/night based on players club offer received in the mail. This in itself is quite the bargain at the LVH. Was delayed and as such arrived extremely late on Fri night/Sat morning, approx. 3 AM. Front desk was quiet so rather than do the sandwich, I merely asked the clerk if I could get a complimentary suite upgrade if I were to provide a $20 tip. He advised that they were sold out for the weekend and offered an oversized Grand Room. He apologized for not being able to do better and I had the impression I would have landed a suite if one were available. The Grand Room is certainly larger than the standard room. The clerk claimed the room to be 600 square feet but that may be a bit optimistic. It was in the North Tower, near the "Scenic Elevator" at the far end of the hall, which made trips to and from the parking garage a relatively short distance. The room featured a 37" HD television, couch with coffee table and (2) end tables, refrigerator, very nice bathroom with tile floor, oversized tub and curved rod. Nice view of the mountains. A tremendous value for a 3-day weekend.
Checked in late on a busy Sunday night. I handed the sandwich to the friendly clerk and, after complaining about my travel hassles for the day, asked if they had complimentary upgrades available. We ended up with a very nice suite including bar, dining table, sofa and extra chairs in the North Tower.
I sandwiched a 20 dollar Bill between my Id and CC and gave it to the lady clerk who may have been around 35 to 40 yrs old (asian features) and asked if there was any chance of a complimentary upgrade and she readily said yes and gave me a suite in the north tower on the 20th floor with a strip view. I checked in around 3:30 pm.
There were 100 people waiting to check in went straight to the Hilton Honers line which I am a new member was free to sign up and man did it help me skip that 2 hour check-in wait. Did it just like it said put the 20 between the CC and ID and she did'nt even raise an eye. Great room everything was clean plenty of towels shampoo ect.. Room would have been 89 a night times 3 we paid 160+20 so all in all a great deal..Thanx Paris :)
Clerk offered me the room upgrade immediately, I didn't even need to ask for it.
Checked in with a nice lady at 5pm. Handed her the 20 with my id, cc and AAA card. She looked up and said "ok what do you want" with a smile :) Asked for an upgrade, she typed for about 5 minutes. She put me up on the 27th floor, away from the elevator, overlooking the golf course in a Grand Room. Good deal!
We arrived with the knowledge that the sandwich worked for a fellow traveler of ours who arrived a day or two earlier. We funded half of his sandwich as an investment so we could guage whether it was worth it for the 3 of us, who had 2 rooms, to fork over a full sandwich per room. At first we were told they were sold out, then when the desk clerk looked up and saw 2 sandwiches laying on the counter top, she quickly and artfully tucked the twenties behind her keyboard and upgraded both of our rooms. Alas, I'm vertically challenged so I did not have the same perspective of the clerk that my 6'3" traveling companion had; he had such an angle that he would have spent $20 (and probably has)for that view alone! Why do the tall get all the breaks? He is the same guy who got confused about what to do with a piece of (alleged) cheese that was on his plate at a steakhouse (it was actually tofu); he was the same guy who couldn't figure out how to use a barstool at the airport (sit on the flat part!); and, he was the same guy who unsuccessfully put $1200 on a foolish parlay: Louisville and the over in the Elite 8. Polly the Insulting Parrot could have done a real number on him this trip. I'll do the sandwich again when I return in October.
Checked in with a $20 sandwich and the clerk knew exactly what to do, no questions... He tried (and I honestly think he thought he was giving me a better room) 28th floor, with a little sitting area-- only problem was it was adjoining another suite and it was LOUD, i could hear every word being said next door-- and they weren't yelling or anything, the door was just very poorly insulating... I went back down and the guy wasn't there any more (argh), I spoke with another agent and explained the problem and she acted like there was nothing she could do, so I slipped her another $20... She was able to secure an updated north tower room for me (I've been in a standard rooms before, and the north tower rooms *are* nicer...)
All and all, I don't think it was worth it-- twice in the past, I've gotten suites here just by asking (no tip at all... )-- So aside from removing the need to ask, I don't think the 20$ trick work and better than being charming here.
Lobby was empty as it was about 9 pm. on a Wednesday night I think there was 2 other guests checking in but they were already being helped. I walked up to the lovely girl behind the counter and gave her the card, license and $20 and asked if there was anyway she could get me into one of the newer rooms with the plasma TV's. She said she'll see what she could do.
Within a few minutes I was walking into a "superior" room with plasma TV, special linens, fridge, safe and nice big bathtub. By the way this isn't the first time this worked, it works almost everywhere.
P.S. To the guy below this post, you are a complete and utter moron. The $20 upgrade worked fine as you described reserving a classic and getting a superior. Yeah your right, its the agents fault you had partying neighbors. Thats a good reason to mark the review as a fail. Moron.

Commentary: Protest against Monsanto recruits participants
How evil is Monsanto? According to professional activists, new-age hippies and easily swayed consumers, Monsanto employees are sons and daughters of the devil that work together to kill people and destroy the planet.
I just cannot see people enchanted with destroying Monsanto as anything other than out of touch with reality. First of all, Monsanto is by no means the only company working to feed the world and increase farmer income with genetically modified traits; there are many companies today. Second, refusing to believe in science and believing scientists are liars is ridiculous.
But nothing seems to sway protesters from targeting Monsanto. The latest batch of protests is being organized to be held May 25 around the nation under the theme of "March Against Monsanto." The organizers of the Kansas City, Mo., version of the protest have been handing out flyers and using social media to the fullest extent to organize participants.
The very first line of the long-version mission statement of "why we march" condemns genetically-modified foods with completely false claims or complete lies. "Research studies have shown that Monsanto's genetically-modified foods can lead to serious health conditions such as the development of cancer tumors, infertility and birth defects." Other than by unscrupulous quasi-scientists, GMOs have never been proven to cause any health conditions.
And enticing every organic farmer to join the protestors seems to be a goal. "Organic and small farmers suffer losses while Monsanto continues to forge its monopoly over the world's food supply," the protestors' "mission statement" claims. Turning farmer against farmer really confuses the general public.
Those who are truly concerned about the environment for honeybee health have not pulled Monsanto into the controversy about low numbers of bee reproduction and colony collapse, but the uninformed protesters say Monsanto is to blame in their mission statement.
The falsely dubbed federal "Monsanto Protection Act" legislation has provided inspiration for activists to claim the company is the "benefactor of corporate subsidies and political favoritism" of corrupt government officials.
The short form flyer hand-out explains "why we march" as follows:
- To protect our food supply.
- Support local farmers.
- Spread awareness about harmful effects of genetically modified food.
- Promote organic solutions.
- Expose the cronyism—big business and government.
- Bring accountability to those responsible for the corruption.
The mission statement ends, "We will not stand for cronyism. We will not stand for poison."
If you don't see a reason for concern about being associated with the March Against Monsanto, then you probably are a person believing in covert operations and hidden agendas by everyone associated with agricultural science.

I dare you to watch these... bet you can't! Your article is exactly what most people expect from an AG Professional... Nice ending by the way... " covert operations etc... " I feel sorry for you! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VEZYQF9WlE http://gmo-awareness.com/2011/05/12/monsanto-dirty-dozen/
What are you-a shill for big AG & Monsanto? You sure sound like it-a liar through & through. Monsanto's and other GMO corporations are poisoning out food, the earth, the water with EXTREMELY TOXIC pesticides AND contaminated food. You are KILLING THE BEES WITH YOUR POISONOUS PESTICIDES. FEED THE WORLD?!?! HaHaHaHa...that has to be the biggest lie of the millennia! Oh, and just exactly why are so many farmers in India who have bought into Monsanto's LIE, committing suicide? I stopped eating food contaminated with GMO s and my health has GREATLY IMPROVED. You lie big Ag shill!
I for one depend on a the farm ground. It is easy for people to get a wooden stake and poster board and write on it hate words. Monsanto and other Ag Companies are definitely concerned on how we are going to feed the population in the next 30 years with population growth. The urban sprawl has pushed the farm sector to be more efficient on their productivity. Monsanto does not actively apply "poisonous pesticides". It is the farmers that choose to apply the product to protect their investments. It is a free world, Monsanto has very few products in their line up that is truely "Poisonous". Read the labels. I doubt you can survive very long on the honey that your precious bees make anyhow. Look at the big picture. If farmers are not successful food, fuel and fiber cost will get out of control. Not only will our economy suffer more than it already is but the protein based diets that more people are depending on will be effected dramatically and have an adverse affect that I do not want to be alive to see. Maybe your health is not all that good right now you seem to be a very mad person.
Great article. Scared of Monsanto? Nope, I respect their innovation and discovery which has greatly advanced modern agriculture. What scares me? The mixture of a low grade level of knowledge about GMO's mixed with a large amount of self absorbed narcissism which results in producing one of these obnoxious new age hippie food anarchists. They are today's version of the "no nothings" who are simply looking for personal relevance in the wrong places. (And why are they always so angry?)
The author states, "The falsely dubbed federal "Monsanto Protection Act" legislation has provided inspiration for activists to claim the company is the "benefactor of corporate subsidies and political favoritism" of corrupt government officials." For your reference: "In the case of the Monsanto rider, Blunt said he worked with the company and had a valuable partner in the late chairman, Inouye, who was sympathetic given Monsanto's large seed operations in Hawaii."

you're an idiot!
What is wrong with you? Have you forgotten agent orange? Vietnam? Or the wonderful new Agent Orange Corn and the Agent Orange that goes along with it? 20 Million gallons permanently disabled and killed over a million people in vietnam 500,000 more born with birth defects. Once it's classified as a herbicide the 570 Million gallons of roundup that are used become 570 Million gallons of agent orange. What the hell do you think is going to happen then? Are you seriously that dense?
You may want to do a little education on the studies regarding gmos that have been conducted overseas in countries where their scientists don't pay attention to nonsence like the stewardship agreement. Your March Against Monsanto article is sick to say the least. To paint such a negative picture of a group of people who simply want their food labeled is atrocious. If it is so safe and so much better it should be a matter of pride to label it and that is why almost 50 million dollars was spent to defeat prop 37 right?. Wake up we demand labeling and healthier food. With 73% of Americans now buying some portion of their food organic and continuing to increase as availability improves instead of telling farmers to plant crap and spray poison they might want to get on the bandwagon before they lose their ass.
Of course the person writing this (opinion) in not educated in this topic an should keep his mouth shut so wrong info stops being spred
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Njd0RugGjAg Seriously this stuff is safe? Care to elaborate?
I do not refuse to believe in science or think most scientists are liars. I do have a problem when the only "science" produced is from people with a financial interest in the results who stridently oppose any sort of 3rd party peer review of this so-called science. The little that 3rd party SCIENTISTS have been able to do has shown questionable or bad results. Monsanto is not the only company involved in producing/ marketing GE foods, the increasing use of poisons like Round Up, and the consolidation and monopolization of our food and seed supplies but they are the largest and they are the most aggressive at squashing attempts at labeling, peer review, and organic farmers/ land owner rights. This is why I will March Against Monsanto.
March away, Jennifer, march away......way away. What a sad commentary when we have a class of people who consider financial rewards for scientific innovation or discovery to be considered "bad science" and scorned. What a pity to live ones life filled with mistrust and irrational phobias. March away.......
Can we just protest about all the lies going on in this country at the same time??? It seems that alot of people are actually waking up and going to protest Monsanto so let's just get it all out there.. I'm serious.
All Monsanto is striving to do is line their pocket books. Obviously the author is employed/paid by the big chemical companies. You mention independent tests that show GM foods have never proven to harm. Who did those tests or paid for them? Oh, yeah..Monsanto! That's how it works....we're not that stupid. Feed the world? I don't think so. Blackmail the world is more like it!
everyone is entitled to their opinion... you can thank us in 10 yrs!
in due time little! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwL8f9MiD2g
How's the sales of Monsanto's terminator seed going? So glad to hear that Japan banned it. How about your sales of saccharine and those PCB's that cause cancer? We refuse to use Roundup or any pesticide and my yard has all the lovely fireflies one could want. Your pharmaceutical is poison.
Coming from one who depends on farms, you should be a little more educated about the bee's importance. Other than making honey, bees most important contribution to humans is that they pollinate all the fruits and many vegetables that we eat. Without them, we will be doing it all by hand. Think about how expensive food, fuel, and fiber will be then.
The terminator gene has never been in production, not here in the US or anywhere in the world actually.

I'm a 56-year-old political moderate who sometime votes across party lines. I'm not a new-age hippie nor an "easily swayed consumer." I parse media messages closely, as I am aware of the psychological techniques of persuasion. My beef with Monsanto stems from reading science and ecology journals. We need a varied gene pool of plant, fungi, and animal species to have resilient ecosystems. Monsanto is about monocultures. Monocultures in the end will make us prone to food shortages as predator species will evolve to attack modified plants. The original plant species will have been curtailed and will no longer exist as backups for use when the gm plants succumb. Also, monocultures do not support the web of invertebrate species necessary to carry on the bio-support work of the planet. These little critters, the unsung heroes of ecosystem maintenance, are being wiped out due to habitat loss caused by the growth of large swaths of monocultures. Such critters include insects and soil microorganisms, worms, and other "lowly" but necessary players. The loss of these species is well documented. Also, Monsanto bullies farmers who would maintain varied gene pools of seeds as security against pests which could evolve in future. This bullying is well known, and erodes the public's trust in the company. Rather than being seen as food providers, they have become the archetypal "evil corporation," due to strong-arm tactics. My message to M.'s corporate governors is this: you have lost not only the hippies and "gullible" consumers, but the educated moderate middle. You need to take a good look at yourselves and figure out how to be a responsible company that can create truly sustainable future for us all.
The honey from those "precious bees" are not the issue you deusch bag, it's the work they do. Those "precious bees" are a VITAL element in the world's floral ecosystem, and without them enormous numbers of floral life would be WIPED OUT. We need those "precious bees" to survive, do have any inkling as to how dependent we are to plant life for our survival? You statement is the most ignorant, ARROGANT, and self-serving I have heard in a VERY long time
More like bad science as in those who call out Monsanto on being harmful are fired. More like Canadian health officials being offered 1-2 million dollar bribes then fired when they refused and reported the truth. More like rBGH has been found to increase cow's ovaries up to 45 percent and cause reproduction problems. More like these same cows have had become sick and need to be pumped full of antibiotics, which is then passed onto us. More like these same cows have been know to have PUS in their milk. Bad science? Pft. Try no science. The only ones claiming this is stuff is harm free is Monsanto, foolish, accusatory writers such as Keller, and ignorant individuals such as yourself. Do yourself, and everyone else around you, a favor and look up some information before you try to act informed. March away indeed.
I grew up on a farm back in the '70s-'80s. My family was 'organic' before the word was even used. We didn't do so well when what my dad referred to as 'corporate farming' moved in. My dad stood by his belief that food is best grown without all those chemicals and by using natural means to help the crops thrive. He was a farmer who truly respected the land and would never believe Roundup ready seed was right for his land. No one truly knows yet the impact of all the pesticides and the GMO seeds on the earth or the land - only time will tell. My dad was a simple man and if he were still alive today, I could hear him saying, "If it doesn't sound right, it's not and that's all there is to it." Does it sound right that the seed is injected with pesticide and changed in a way to withstand application of Roundup pesticide and deter the natural feeders from eating it? Can we really trust a company that brought us an abundance of DDT, saccharin, PCBs, and Agent Orange - all that has been banned due to their toxicity to humans and/or the environment? Science has contributed some of the most wonderful and most disturbing history to our kind. If Monsanto had truly completed long term studies to determine the real impact of GMO, or if our government required such be completed before given them and other companies patents on life - I would truly be listening to the beat of a different drum. But all I can hear is this thunderous boom of biotech companies destroying our life and our planet.
Do you work for Monsanto in Missouri by any chance?
Go back to sleep sheeple. I pity you greatly those who do not see the truth. And to the people going. March your hearts out guys we shall also be doing our thing in Holland.x Power to the people.

It is a lie that Monsanto is the only company working to alleviate world hunger. It is, however, trying to dominate seed ownership and distribution, and so boldly labels its seed bags with its patent numbers and warnings. And yet, it has great resistance to labeling the final product. If the food grown form these seeds is equivalent, safe, and something to be proud of, then LABEL it. Brand it. If it really is all that, heck, even charge more for it, like manufacturers do for fancy jeans... no pun intended!
no bees no food
Would the heroes at Monsanto still continue to save the world through genetically Modified foods and greater ag efficiency if there wasn't something in it for them? Take away the profit potential and our heroes go poof! Nearly every industry in America, no profit no interest. Companies that want to patent the food we eat for the safety and well being of us who cannot help ourselves follow in the pus of an unforgiving, unrelenting social disease, like the patriot act where we all chose to give up freedom for safety. Monsanto and companies like it exist because the majority of us just want to eat something tha looks nice and doesn't keep us from our TV for too long, i.e. consumers. Consumers are the only thing Mosanto wants to feed. Right now, consumers don't yet care about nutrition or where it comes from. I think as long as people don't care about what's in their food or how it got there, companies like Monsanto won't go away.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Our take on the Sanus VTM5 iPad® 3-in-1 Mount by Ralph Graves Included is the iPad protective case and the articulated arm.If you use your iPad to find recipes or how-to videos, then there are probably times when you need to use it hands-free — times when you'd like to keep your iPad visible, but safely out of harm's way from the stove or sink. The Sanus VTM5 3-in-1 mount solves that problem. The system consists of a MagFit™ iPad case and an articulated arm. Mount your iPad on the wall, under a counter, or even on your refrigerator.A versatile caseThe MagFit case is made of a durable polycarbonate material that provides protection without adding a lot of weight. Its contoured back makes it easy to hold, even for long periods of time. Simply snap your iPad 2 or new iPad (iPad 3) into place for a secure fit. And the case accomodates the Apple® Smart Cover® for added convenience.On the back is a powerful neodymnium magnet which secures the case to the rest of the mount — but it will also attach to any metallic surface. So you can "mount" the case on your refrigerator or filing cabinet just using the case's magnet.An articulated armThe VTM5 includes a compact arm that unfolds outwards into three sections. You can mount the arm to a wall, or underneath a counter. Sanus includes the necessary hardware. The arm has smooth, 360° motion. When attached, you can rotate the case so your iPad has either a portrait or landscape orientation. The arm's made of durable aluminum with a satin finish — it's both strong and light.

I use this product in my kitchen to mount the iPad to follow for recipes. Worked great for Thanksgiving! Also handy just for having iPad available but off the counter. This product is well made, easily adjustable, and sturdy. I would definitely recommend it. When not in use, it folds out of the way. Also with the clear iPad holder, it is not very visible when not in use. Overall, great product. Pros: Holds iPad well; easily adjustable; sturdy; easy to install. 5 stars!

Military Honors Ceremony for Seven Arizona Territorial Rangers Who Paved Way for Arizona Statehood
PHOENIX, Ariz. - January 02, 2013
As Arizona marks the state's centennial, the Phoenix community is invited to remember and honor seven Territorial Rangers who served from 1901-1909 and are buried at Greenwood/Memory Lawn Cemetery, paving the way for Arizona's statehood. The ceremony will take place at noon on Saturday, January 12 at the Cemetery, 2300 West Van Buren in Phoenix. The event is free and open to the public. Call 602-254-8491 for more information.
The ceremony will feature military honors, music, historical notes, dignitaries and memories of those lawless years the seven Territorial Rangers served – Ross Brooks, James Moran, Neil Reuben, John Redmond, John Rhodes, James Smith and Leslie Woods. Several companies of the Arizona Rangers and the State Commander Col. Resner plan to attend the ceremony. The Cemetery will also unveil a marker honoring the Arizona Rangers.
"This ceremony is our way of saying 'thank you' to the men and women who have served and who have sacrificed," said David Walker, general manager of Greenwood/Memory Lawn Mortuary & Cemetery. "We hope the families who join us for this special event gain a deeper appreciation for the importance of honoring our military and law enforcement, whether that is those currently enlisted and serving or veterans who served in the past."
Greenwood/Memory Lawn Mortuary & Cemetery is a proud Dignity Memorial® provider in Phoenix. This military ceremony is one of many ways Dignity Memorial providers support and honor veterans and active military.

Awesome Gem, a 7-year-old veteran with nearly $2-million in earnings, will make his next start in the $500,000 Hollywood Gold Cup on July 10, trainer Craig Dollase confirmed Thursday.
"That's the plan," said Dollase. "He's been doing well since he got back from Lone Star Park."
Awesome Gem, a chestnut gelding owned by West Point Thoroughbreds, finished second in his last start in the Grade III Lone Star Park Handicap May 31, his 13th runner-up finish in 35 starts. He has won six times and earned $1,974,682.
A Kentucky-bred by Awesome Again, Awesome Gem launched his career at Hollywood Park on July 9, 2006. He has since won a pair of Grade II stakes – the 2007 San Fernando at Santa Anita and the 2009 Hawthorne Gold Cup in Illinois – and finished second in three Grade I stakes, the 2007 Goodwood at Santa Anita as well as the 2008 Pacific Classic and 2009 Eddie Read Handicap at Del Mar. He was also third in the 2007 Breeders' Cup Classic at Monmouth Park.
Regular rider David Flores, who won the Gold Cup with Marquetry in 1991 and Siphon in 1996, has the call. Dollase has never won the race but came agonizingly close twice: in 2001, when Futural was disqualified from first to third for interference in the stretch; and in 2002, when Momentum finished second, a nose behind Sky Jack.
Defending champion Rail Trip is expected to head the lineup in the Grade I Gold Cup at 1 ¼ miles on Cushion Track.
Globetrotting trainer Carl O'Callaghan was back in the stable area here Thursday morning, applying the finishing touches to Princess Haya for the $100,000 Grade III Beverly Hills Handicap for fillies and mares at 1 ¼ miles on turf Saturday.
O'Callaghan returned Wednesday night from England, where he had spent the past two weeks with star sprinter Kinsale King, who finished third in the Grade I Golden Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot on June 19.
Princess Haya, a 5-year-old mare, drew post three in a field of eight under high weight of 117 pounds in the Beverly Hills. A Grade II winner at Woodbine last year, Princess Haya finished a distant seventh in the Grade I Gamely Stakes in her second California start May 29.
"She came out of the Gamely with a bad lung infection," said O'Callaghan. "She's had two good works since she's come back. I think you will see the real Princess Haya this time."
O'Callaghan has also taken blinkers off, another factor that he thinks will help the mare in the Beverly Hills.
O'Callaghan, who returns to London next week, outlined an ambitious and scenic schedule for the well-traveled Kinsale King, a 5-year-old gelding who won the Vernon Underwood Stakes here and the Palos Verdes Handicap at Santa Anita last winter before being shipped to Dubai to capture the Group I Golden Shaheen Stakes in March.
"He proved he can run on turf, he can run in a straight line and he can run with the best of them," said O'Callaghan of Kinsale King's encouraging grass debut at Royal Ascot.
"I left him there for the Darley July Cup July 9 at Newmarket," said O'Callaghan. "Then I will bring him back and get him ready for races in Japan in September and Hong Kong in October. Then in November, it will be either Melbourne or the Breeders' Cup."
Trainer Marty Jones hopes Sunday to duplicate a feat accomplished only by his father: winning the Robert Kerlan Memorial Handicap with a female.
The younger Jones will send out Unzip Me, a 4-year-old filly, against six males in the $60,000-added race at six furlongs on turf.
Gary Jones, Marty's retired father, saddled the 4-year-old filly Cool Air to victory in the 1994 edition, the only time a distaffer has won the race.
"I worked for my dad at that time and was with that filly," said Jones Thursday. "I went to the Laurel Dash with her when she finished second to Soviet Problem. The girls ran one-two against the boys that day."
Unzip Me, a front-runner riding a five-race winning streak, will make her first start against males. She will be ridden by Joe Talamo and carry 116 pounds, seven less than highly regarded Australian import Scenic Blast.
"I really don't want to take the boys on, but it's the only race I can run in unless I want to run her long, which I don't," explained Jones candidly.
Unzip Me breezed three furlongs on the main track in 38.60 seconds.
Senorita Stakes winner Cozi Rosie and Providencia Stakes winner City to City head a list of 11 3-year-old fillies nominated to the $250,000 American Oaks July 3.
Also nominated to the Grade I test at 1 ¼ miles on turf are Andina, Antares World, Conniption, Crisp, Empire Spring, Hard Way Ten, Harmonious, Taro and Weekend Magic.
The American Oaks tops a lineup of four graded stakes scheduled on Fourth of July weekend. Also on tap are the $150,000 Grade II Royal Heroine Mile on July 3, the $150,000 Grade II American Handicap on July 4, and the $100,000 Grade III Hollywood Juvenile Championship on July 5.
FINISH LINES—Joe Talamo has taken a call back to ride J P's Gusto, an impressive winner of the Willard Proctor Memorial Stakes on May 31, in the Hollywood Juvenile at six furlongs for trainer David Hofmans. Talamo will be in New York on July 3 to ride I Want Revenge in the $300,000 Suburban Handicap at Belmont Park…Trainer Bob Baffert and jockey Martin Garcia will take their show on the road to Iowa this weekend.

End of Jocktober
Jocktober was a success and a failure. However, I look on the bright side, therefore, through the fails, I see improvements. Lets talk about the WINS.
1. Roller coaster
I finally fit in the roller coaster seat without feeling embarrassed. I conquered a fear of mine.
2. Gym Challenge
I pushed myself harder than ever in the gym. One week I ran for a total of 21 miles. I wanted to puke after some runs but I still accomplished something I thought I never could do.
1. my diet
haha, I wanted to do a week eating solely fruits and veggies. #Fail… BUT, my takeaway is that I need to eat more fruits and vegetables on a daily basis. Lately, for my snack at work, I eat apples. I brought in carrots and dip for a snack today. I am taking a right step, away from processed food.
2. I am still plateauing!
Yup, no weight loss. Probably weight gain because my diet was off due to a whole cheat week.
To help with the plateau, I ordered Green Coffee beans off of Groupon. These beans have helped clinical trial patients lose 15% of their body fat without diet or exercise. I heard about this on The View and it was also on Dr. Oz. I am not relying on the green coffee beans to lose weight but just jump start the fat burning process.
I will have more on the miracle workers once I start using them.
I thought of this in the shower today. Yes, I had to tell you this :)
Anyways, This month starts the holiday period when we binge on sweets and carbs. Well, we can't always say no. SOOO.. I came up with a plan to fulfill our sweets and still be on a diet. It is a 50 / 50 plan. Every time sweets are in front of you, you will eat or not eat. It will go back and forth. Therefore, if I passed on the cake yesterday, then I can have a thin slice of apple pie today. Get it? it is better to alternate your yes then to binge by saying 'YES' all the time. Try it! I bet you will notice how little weight you will gain over the fat gaining season.
Love you all,
