Danny does Austin. Here he is in his natural habitat among cheap Nascar jackets and faux-leather bullshit.
He feels at home.
There is something odd about all of the things you can find at these truck stops out in the middle of places. It really shows off the needs some of these lonely truck drivers have on the road at 4am in morning.
Do they really need walking stick and wicker hat that badly?

The Woman with the Golden Guns
Please remember that this story is ment to be placed in the Old Western days. Where Cowboys are still fighting Indians.
It's no the best story and the tittle doesn't make since just yet but be patient and i'll get there. This is coming off the top of my head. I don't have it wrote down so it may take a little bit.
Also i'd like feedback on what yal think... Please.
Come on fella. Hyde said to the 12 month old colt she got out of a dappled grey mare and palomino stallion. Hes a pale horse. No white, grey nor palomino just a pale color. Shes had him for a year now and he has no name. No name has fit him yet. He has big brown eyes that are soft to look at. Hyde was a little surprised when she measured him to be 15hhs at only a year old. But his parents are both 16hhs tall. Though that was two years ago, now hes 16hhs himself at three years old. Hyde was taking him to the round pen to start saddle breaking him. She has already got him to neck rein while on the ground. Her father Lee, brother Lassiter and her 5 year old niece (Her brothers daughter) Kassidy came out to watch her ride. You sure you dont want me to ride him first? Lassiter asked. Hes my horse, not yours. Hyde said. My perfect horse. She whispered to him. He has a very nice muscular built to him. Big boned, beautiful soft eyes, thick neck and chest, nice built hind quarters. Hes my dream horse come true. Hes filled out very nicely Hyde. Her father said. Yes Father he has. I worried when he was born. Being so skinny and small. She said slipping the bridle in his awaiting mouth. Hyde stood there thinking for a moment them said. I think Ill ride him bareback first. Saying this more to herself she heard her brother sigh. Kassidy will you bring that bucket over here? Hyde asked her niece. Kassidy did as told and handed Hyde the bucket. Thanks. Hyde said setting the bucket by the horse. She looked back to see Kassidy still standing there. Whats wrong? Hyde asked. Nothing .. I was just wondering when Elliot gets old enough to break can I do it? She asks Hyde. Well thats up to your father, but for know we can play around with him until he gets old enough to break and if you show me by then that you can handle him I may let you have a swirl at getting bucked off. Hyde said laughing. Hey thats not funny. She said stomping of giggling. Hyde took a deep breath and got on top for the bucket. She put her hands on the horses back and looked at his eager face that was looking back interested in what she was doing. Hyde looked at him then threw her leg over his back.
Does anyone like it?
I love it!!!
I've decided to change the tittle to this story. It's not going to have anything to do with any golden guns or any of that. I figured the way i want this story to go will be to graphic. So i'm going to write the next part today or Monday. But it will be different then i planned.
Also it's modern day theme now.
If a Moderator could change the tittle to "A Girl with a Broken Heart" I would appreciate it.

keyword stuffing
A SEO technique used by Web designers to overload keywords onto a Web page so that search engines will read the page as being relevant in a Web search.
Because search engines scan Web pages for the words that are entered into the search criteria by the user, the more times a keyword appears on the Web page the more relevancy the search engine will assign to the page in the search results (this is only one way that search engines determine relevancy, however.)
Search engines often penalize a site if the engine discovers keyword stuffing, as this practice is considered poor netiquette, and some search engines will even ban the offending Web pages from their search results.
Various Methods of Keyword Stuffing
There are several methods of keyword stuffing. One way is to insert repeating keywords within the input type="hidden" field meta tag or the keyword tag so that the keywords are not seen by the user but are scanned by the search engine.
Another way is to make text in the body of the Web page invisible text, or hidden text, by making the text the same color as the page's background, rendering the text invisible to the user unless the user highlights the text. This method is called invisible keyword stuffing. Keyword stuffing can also be referred to as keyword loading and spamdexing.

There's no doubt technology has made it easier to cover current events and breaking news on a global scale. Likewise, websites like Patch have helped to reignite the notion of reporting on local news. And for some freelance writers and photographers, going local is the ticket to getting steady work. In Mediabistro's latest Journalism Advice column, we share some tips on how freelancers can break into the oft-forgotten field of community journalism.
The first step is to be invested in the community you're covering — and to know it well. Lance Knobel, founder of community news site Berkeleyside, which covers Berkeley, Calif., said:
The benefit of writing for sites like Berkeleyside is that journalists can really dig into a local issue. It's very much ground-level reporting; nothing happens at 35,000 feet.
You should also be prepared — at least for the first story or two — to write for free. The benefit, of course, is getting your name out there and gaining the trust of your editors. According to Tracy Record, editor of the West Seattle Blog:
Your work is likely to be read and remembered by more people via our readership than if you are buried somewhere in a mid-level metro.
For more tips from editors on how to start working in community journalism, read: 6 Ways to Break Into Community Journalism.

Comments about Noodle Sections :
These noodle pieces are great! I use them in my classes for building blocks, points, treasure, math manipulatives and more. As with any noodle pieces, they run the risk of students "picking" at them which ruins them after a while, but other than that, they are fantastic to have in my gym. I wish they came in other colors!

The tour was wonderful, we had a great time walking through the city and our guide was fantastic. She was very helpful and informative. We would highly recommend this trip!!!
Valparaiso is a must see from Santiago. Our guide and tour were excellent. This was my second day trip to Valparaiso and was far better than previous. We spent the whole day walking the streets and cruising the harbour. The harbour cruise was an entertainment in itself.
An excellent tour and enjoyable day out. Carol was so enthusiastic and shared so many interesting snippets of information. Valparaiso is a busy, gritty place on the surface but with such a skilful guide, we saw the art, culture and history, as well as experiencing some of the life of the city. It was a long drive but Rodrigo cruised us there smoothly.
We had a wonderful day in Valparaiso with our guide Roberto and driver Miguel and would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore Valparaiso like a local, walking the tiny alleys, riding the elevators and trolley buses, boating in an open boat and eating the local dishes.
This is the perfect way to see Valparaiso when the focus of your trip is elsewhere in Chile. It is a delightful city, not to be missed, and you feel that you have truly been exposed to it when the day trip is over. Our guide, Daniel, was just wonderful...an absolutely enjoyable personality. As well, he lived in Valparaiso in the past, so he does, indeed, know the city. It was a well planned and well executed trip. I know that you will be pleased, as well.
A great full day tour. Interesting city, and history. A great personable guide, eating what the locals eat with the locals . Really enjoyed it. Great start to our holiday.
The tour delivers exactly what it says: spending a day in Valparaiso like a local (albeit one who had a day off and was determined to remind themselves of everything that Valparaiso had to offer). Our guide, who arrived at our hotel in Santiago promptly, was a very personable and knowledgeable young philosophy teacher, acting as a tour guide in his spare time. On the way to Valparaiso we stopped to sample some sweet local pastries at a road-side café and then some interesting wine at a bodega in the Casablanca valley (and no-one said:"..of all the bodegas in all the valleys in all the world and you had to walk into mine"). In the city, we had an hour to visit the house that belonged to Pablo Neruda with its stunning views over the city and the harbour and its collection of quirky artefacts: the place reverberated with poetry. Then we toured the streets and alleyways on foot, taking in the English and German quarters, a funicular ride, a stop at what could only be described as a confectionery speak-easy (our guide knocked a door and a woman appeared bearing dulce de leche sandwich cakes) and then another stop at a cool local café for refreshing fruit smoothies. Back in the lower part of the city, we took a tram ride, then strolled back through the streets and squares to an excellent retro restaurant, reminiscent of 1950s Paris with its long bar and sepia décor, for lunch, preceded, inevitably, by pisco sours. Then it was back on another rickety funicular and a wander through more of the colourful alleyways and cobbled back streets before a cruise around the harbour to take in the sweeping views of the city from the water. It was a long day but an immensely enjoyable and rewarding one.
Fantastic day Ricardo was informative and helpful. We would highly recommend this tour to others
Our guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We were picked up at our hotel on time and the tour was always on schedule. This is a great way to experience Valparaiso with a local flavor. We would highly recommend this tour.
Our guide Ceasar spoke excellent English. He was well informed and very pleasant.
The walking tour was interesting and the harbor tour gave good perspective of the hills of Valparaiso.
Emma our driver was very competent.
Loved the tour which really helped me understand the history and beauty of Valparaiso. The guide and driver were most kind, the lunch delicious and we were amazed by the neighborhoods of the city. On the negative side, it was terribly expensive for the two of us since no one else signed up. I hated paying around $150 extra for the 2 of us. Also, the harbor cruise was lovely but the narration was only in Spanish with no English.
JAVIER United States of ...
God but not great.
This tour certainly kept us busy! From a car ride very comfortable, Sebastien was a great driver to a trolley ride paid for by our guide, to a boat ride again, arranged by the guide to coffee guide, to a funicular ride and then a tour of the Valparaiso hills and a stop at Neruda's house. The guide was extremely knowledgeable.
Not what we were expecting. The highlights of Valparaiso only came at the end after we insisted on what we wanted to see - the art, culture, etc. A walking tour of the markets and the trolley bus ride can be taken anywhere. The lunch was not much - in fact we would happily take 10 minutes to grab a snack to eat as we walked to give more time to see some of the artwork and special sights that make Valparaiso the city that it is. The harbour cruise was a waste of an hour.
I would not really recommend this tour. Our tour guide and driver were fantastic and did a great job looking after us but I just didn't like the township of Valparaiso. It is fully of graffiti, it's not a particularly attractive place to visit and there are better places to enjoy in Santiago.
To start, the confirmation email said 9:30, but the tour operator arrived at 9am, causing us to have to rush through breakfast which was important to eat for a full day tour!. They stopped at a little gas station halfway for us to relieve ourselves, as well as a wine outlet on the way to Valparaiso--both good additions. However, we spent pretty much all day staring at the facades of buildings--I'm a history person, and I found it disorganized and poorly executed. The harbor cruise was nice we saw several sea lions!. We didn't eat lunch until 5pm and not at the restaurant specified in the description, and completely missed the beer portion. Valparaiso seemed like a lovely place, but we were not thrilled with this tour. Felt absolutely haphazard and like I didn't come away actually learning much about the city--just endlessly staring at buildings from 1890 to 1920. Wished we could have at least gone INTO one of the buildings--but seriously, the furthest we went was to stand in bank and hotel lobbies and stare at architecture. The day also stretched much longer than expected--the ten hour tour went from 9am to 8pm. Not our favorite tour.
We were very disappointed with our tour experience. The trip from Santiago to Valparaiso was a boring long trip along a highway with a stop at a barn-size commercial winery along the way with no cultural value at all. The heritage-listed area of Valparaiso was gorgeous, but frankly we would have enjoyed it more without our guide. The commentary was banal, and we were treated like children. Our guide was an ex-teacher and we can only presume she was a primary teacher. We did not consider it good value for money - US$300 each, with a cheapo lunch at a zero atmosphere establishment. The harbour cruise was incredibly disappointing - just a short circuit around what was essentially an industrial port. To others I'd say: save your money, buy a decent local map, and wander around Valparaiso by yourself.

The TFight 315 offers a heavier static weight/head light balance that offers outstanding feel, further enhanced with a leather grip. The open, spin friendly 16x19 string pattern further suits itself to more aggressive player for which the TFight series is designed.
After using a Yonex racquet for many years, I decided to switch over to this racquet. I previously played with a 100 inch head size, but I figured this 98 wouldn't be too much of a difference. Once I found the right string (Wilson NXT), the racquet started feeling softer and with less vibration. With this combination of racquet and string I was able to get ample amount of power and control. I'm able to place my shots better and the quality of shots is better than it ever was with the Yonex racquet. As long as you have the right string, this is a great frame. It is a shame that it is so underrated because of the lesser known brand. I recommend giving this racquet a try!
Love the frame, under close scrutiny, under the grip is the layup code, PT965B or PT965A depending on 16 or 18 main. These have a low swingweight, and are meant to have lead added to the hoop IMO. The feel is sublime, and similar to classic frames and there is little to no vibrations in this frame. Great control, great spin, and feel is top notch. These frames are amazing, and if you have skill, the pallets can be swapped out with Head TK82s pallets, just make sure you get the new buttcap if you swap the pallets. 5 grams at noon, brings this stick to life. This is Tecnifibre's pro stock, grab one while you still can!! I got one of each string pattern, and they are insanely good frames!!!
Like: maneuverable, feel, spin, control and flex(easy on arm) Dislike: low powered, can't get free power when not fit etc. Demoed it to see the taste of this racquet because I like the specs. Overall I like it but will take when my game goes one level up.
Don't Forget...

With the recent uproar about immigration and other issues on the U.S./Mexico border, the timing couldn't be more perfect for the new album by Calexico, the multinational collective (members hail from both the United States and Germany) founded by Tucson residents Joey Burns and John Convertino. However, Garden Ruin sees the band stepping away from their much-ballyhooed border sound, mostly forgoing the cryptic border imagery and mariachi horns of 2003's stellar Feast of Wire in favor of the airy pop classicism the band previously flirted with on tracks such as "Not Even Stevie Nicks" and their cover of Love's "Alone Again Or." "Bisbee Blue" takes its name from the turquoise mine near Bisbee, Arizona, mating a '70s pop shuffle to socially conscious lyrics about urban sprawl and "old towns falling," while upbeat numbers like "Cruel" and "Letter to a Bowie Knife" show Convertino to be as equally adept at rock drumming as he is with the more complex rhythms of jazz. But it's closer "All Systems Red," with its apocalyptic lyrics and cacophony of stinging guitars, that may be their best attempt at rock yet. But despite the nearly uniform excellence of the tracks here, Ruin's mostly mellow song cycle never reaches the energetic highs of Calexico's live show. And while the change in their sound is refreshing, it sure is hard not to miss those mariachi horns right about now.

LOVE the Velcro kisses! I love it when Ruthie kisses me, it makes me feel so loved.
I remember when I first started reading your blog, you had posted pics of the Ocean Trails, and how jealous I was. If I come out to visit you, we will have to run along there together, so everything can come full circle.
I don't know how your body can do everything you do - traveling across the country, then running a crazy 26.2, and then flying back again!

After a string of great shows across the States this Summer, Nuala Kennedy Band will be taking a hiatus while a wee addition to the family arrives in November! We had a lot of fun especially festival-ling outside at Culver City Hall, L.A., in Madison, Wisconsin with our pals Dervish and up in the Upper Peninsula of Sault Sainte Marie, MI where this post gig pic was snapped. Thanks especially to my traveling companion, Irish guitarist and singer Mnter O Leary for a couple of wild swims and duo concerts out on the East Coast of the U.S. - a heads up for ye folks here that we are working on a duo album for release in 2018. Looking forward to that very much. Here's a video of The Night Visiting Song which will be on there:
A couple of concert coming up in the L.A. area are at the beautiful Largo venue with @WatkinsFamilyHour, Weds 7th September and with film score piper extraordinaire Eric Rigler in San Pedro, Sunday 11th September - please see TOUR for deets!
"This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before."
What dark changes are happening in the world. In a time of great upheaval and sadness at the result of the Brexit vote, and the recent outbursts of xenophobic and homophobic hatred, I am put in mind of the quote above from American musician Leonard Bernstein written in response to the murder of J.F.K.
To follow our passion more devotedly than ever before.... There is great solace in music and the arts, great comfort in creating things of beauty, comfort in the time we spend working creatively both together and alone. It is a place to seek refuge when the world can be overwhelming, a place where we can respond and reply with grace to questions which are often beyond our individual control. Particularly with traditional music, what a joy to have this rich heritage to dig into, to seek out old pieces, to contribute new ones.... to pass on our interpretation of and love of the tradition to our friends and students. For me it's a Summer filled with quite a few music camps: Acadia Trad School, ME, The Swannanoa Gathering, Music Arts and Dance week in D.C. and Augusta Heritage Week in West Virginia.
Nuala Kennedy Band will hit the road again in August. See TOUR page for details! Here we all are playing two jigs and a reel in studio:
Nuala will be teaching at the Swannanoa Gathering in North Carolina again this year July 10-17. A fun picture from last year's Gathering!
Nuala's new recording 'Behave the Bravest' is out now! Order your copy here!!
Nuala appears on 'Beg and Borrow' the latest Battlefield Band recording, highlighting the connection between Ireland and Scotland, which is available here: www.templerecords.co.uk/beg The record features a host of special guests including Christine Primrose, Leo McCann, Don Meade and Tony Demarco!

Azuchi castle is a famous castle founded by Oda Nobunaga, a hero of the warring period in Japan. The tower of Azuchi castle is a golden structure with the top covered with 10000 pieces of gold shingles.
The top part of the tower sparkling with gold has a golden room inside. The golden room is a symbol of Azuchi castle.
From this lookout, visitors can enjoy the great view over Ise Azuchi Momoyama Culture Village and beautiful Ise bay. Visitors can feel like being the founder, Oda Nobunaga.
Oda Nobunadga, upon conquering central Japan along with the Kinai (Osaka area), built this luxurious and gorgeous Azuchi Castle as a symbol of the unity of the country.
Azuchi Castle took 3 years to complete and was a well designed fortress that will withstand attacks. However its ideological, religious, and political functions were thought to be more important than its function as military defense.
Azuchi Castle was Nobunaga's expression of "nation" and represented a great art monument of "Philosophy of laws governing heaven".
In front of the castle, Nobunaga opened "Rakuichi Rakuza" market which was practically free of tax to promote business. Also he ensured the safety of common people around the castle by eliminating enemies.
By building Azuchi Castle, Nobunaga proved inside and outside of Japan that he was the king of the whole country and he became the ruler Nobunaga, who was thought to be more powerful than God or Buddha.

2006 HUMMER H3 ReviewThis car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
The new baby Hummer is authentic and affordable.
The 2006 Hummer H3 is an all-new, mid-sized, five-passenger sport utility vehicle that carries the military-inspired design cues and amazing off-road capabilities of the Hummer H1 and H2, but puts them in a smaller, more affordable package. The H3 provides the level of equipment that luxury-vehicle buyers expect, even though this Hummer's base price is less than $30,000.
In an era of high gasoline prices, the appeal of the Hummer H3 is increased by its fuel economy ratings. While its larger siblings average only 10 or 12 miles per gallon, the H3 is rated at 20 miles per gallon on the highway with its standard five-speed manual transmission or 19 mpg when equipped with an optional four-speed automatic. Both transmissions are rated at 16 mpg in city driving.
The H3 draws its power from a 3.5-liter, inline five-cylinder engine that generates 220 horsepower, which we found a sufficient output to accelerate this vehicle smartly up to freeway speeds.
The H3 delivers serious off-road capability. But it also offers comfortable and quiet performance on the highway and is as capable at squeezing into tight parking spaces as it is picking its way over boulders on The Rubicon Trail. It's an impressive balance. And the pricing is compelling. Many H3 buyers will want the Luxury Package with its leather seats and upgraded audio system, the automatic transmission and electronic stability control technology. Even with side-curtain airbags and satellite radio you're looking at a vehicle that retails for less than $35,000.
The 2006 Hummer H3 comes as one model ($29,500). Two major option packages are available that allow a buyer to focus on more luxury or on serious off-roading.
The base price includes cloth-covered seating for five with manual lumbar adjustment for the front seats and a second-row seat that is split 60/40 and can be folded down to expand the cargo floor. Also standard are a tilt-adjustable steering column, power windows and locks, remote keyless entry, an audio system with a CD player, cruise control, air conditioning, an electronic rearview mirror with temperature and compass readings and a year's subscription of the OnStar telematics system. Also standard: 265/75R16 Goodyear all-terrain tires mounted on 16-inch wheels, a full-size spare tire, daytime running lights, fog lights.
Safety features that come standard include antilock brakes (ABS), traction control, frontal and side-impact airbags (torso protection) for the driver and front-seat passenger, and a tire-pressure monitoring system. Side airbag curtains ($395) are optional and we recommend them for the head protection they can provide to you and your passengers in the event of a side impact or rollover.
Leather seating with seat heaters and power adjustments for both front seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel are included in the Luxury package ($3,125), which also includes a Monsoon audio system with an in-dash six-CD changer, upgraded sun visors with extenders and special floor mats.
The Adventure package ($1,025) includes a rear-locking differential and high-ratio transfer case for enhanced off-road traction, unique 33-inch, 285/75 BFGoodrich off-road tires and special front and rear floor mats. The off-road suspension setup can be added to the Luxury package for $925.
Stand-alone options include a four-speed automatic transmission ($1,625) that comes with StabiliTrak anti-spin technology, a navigation system ($1,995), XM Satellite Radio ($325), the Monsoon audio system with single CD player ($695), a power sunroof ($800), a chrome appearance package ($850), towing equipment ($150), chromed wheels ($800), an underbody protection package ($385) and roof-mounted off-road lamps ($590). Hummer dealers offer many additional accessories, including a brush guard ($680) and chrome gas cap ($185).
The Hummer H3 applies the design cues that made the Hummer H1 and H2 so popular and so unlike anything else on the road. The difference is the more compact package.
The H3 has an extremely upright windshield and side windows that more closely resemble those in a turret than a typical family wagon, as well as the very short front and rear overhangs and increased ground clearance that are vital for negotiating the sort of extreme off-pavement environments Hummers have to be able to survive.
One area in which the H3 differs from other Hummers is in the blistered fenders that cover its widely set wheels and large tires. The standard tires are 32 inches in diameter; special off-road tires developed for the H3 by Bridgestone are 33 inches tall.
Large round headlamps are positioned on either side of an upright grille with seven vertical slots. Large fog lamps positioned below the headlamps underscore the vehicle's height. Its width is accentuated by amber signal lamps positioned outboard of the headlamps, up above the front tires at the front of bulging front fenders.
Lending even more strength to the H3's face is a wide black bumper with a pair of bolted-in D rings, each of which can support the vehicle's full weight. A visible reminder that Hummers are at home away from pavement, the H3 has a skid plate, bright metallic underbody armor designed to protect its oil pan and other powertrain components from damage.
The hood has louvers that look like those on the H1 or H2 and a pair of air boxes at the base of the windshield supports. While the louvers are non-functional, one of the air boxes draws oxygen into the 3.5-liter five-cylinder engine.
Because of its military heritage as a Humvee, the wheels on the Hummer H1 have an integrated tire inflation system. The wheels on the H2 and H3 have a similar look, though they do not provide inflation on the go. However, the H3 does come with a standard tire-pressure monitoring system.
The rear view of the H3 is dominated by the full-size spare tire mounted on the back of the rear door. A hydraulic strut eases the opening and closing this tire-carrying door, which is hinged on the driver's side and thus can be loaded from curbside in parallel parking situations.
As at the front of the H3, a metallic skid plate protects the fuel tank and other underbody components at the rear of the vehicle's chassis.
Sport utility vehicles traditionally are built on pickup truck platforms, and the Hummer H3 chassis is based on the platform of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon mid-size pickups. However, only 10 percent of the pickup trucks' components carry over in the H3, and the engine and transmissions account for most of that commonality. The other thing the H3 has in common with its pickup truck cousins is that it is built on the same assembly line in Shreveport, Louisiana.
While the H3 is capable of extreme off-road driving, its passenger compartment was designed and equipped for extreme on-pavement comfort.
Care was taken in designing the exterior to create nuances, such as the shape of the structure around the very upright windshield, to enhance both exterior aerodynamics and help keep the interior quiet at Interstate speeds. Special sound insulation materials and window sealing enable H3 occupants to carry on conversations without raising their voices even though the H3 we drove wore off-road tires, which have more aggressive and noise generating tread.
The leather seating surfaces in our test vehicle were comfortable for highway driving yet supportive for the severe off-road conditions we encountered. Lumbar support is good and headrests are properly positioned close to back of the driver and passengers' heads. In addition to the standard front and side airbags in the front seats, our H3 had the optional side-curtain airbags, which enhance occupant protection in broadside crashes.
Color-contrast piping around the edges of the leather seats enhances the luxurious look and feel of the H3 interior. The interior can be ordered in all black (ebony) or with contrasting ebony and cashmere (a beige tone) or ebony and Morocco (terra cotta) colors for the seats and door panel trim.
Metallic-colored trim finishes highlight the dashboard and center console.
Switchgear is easy to find and intuitive in its use. Knobs for the HVAC (heat/ventilation/air conditioning) system are large enough to be easily turned by gloved hands. Gauges are large and easy to read. Our test car was equipped with sun visors with pull-out extensions, a terrific feature for folks living in sunbelt states where the sunrise and sunset coming through the driver or front passenger's windows can be brutal.
The care that went into designing the interior might best be seen in the details of the vents in the dashboard for the HVAC system. Designers and engineers worked closely to create louvered vents that provide ample airflow but close flush with the surface of the dashboard when not being used.
Positioning the spare tire on the rear door provides extra room for cargo inside the H3. Even with the second row occupied, there's room for nearly 30 cubic feet of gear. Capacity nearly doubles with second-row seats flipped forward.
Driving Impression
Some might think 220 horsepower isn't enough for a mid-size sport utility vehicle that weighs 4700 pounds, but we did two stints at the wheel of the H3, one in increasingly inclement and icy weather, and found the powertrain more than adequate whether we were just driving around town, cruising at speed with left-lane traffic on the Interstate or crawling our way over big boulders on a very difficult off-road trail.
Like other Hummers, the H3 was built not for its zero-to-60 mph acceleration time but for its ability to climb 60 percent (31-degree) grades, to handle 40 percent side slopes and to ford 24 inches of water. But the H3 isn't at all sluggish when you enter a freeway on ramp and the engine emits a nice growl as you accelerate to the speed limit.
The capabilities engineered into the H3 for off-roading also are beneficial in city driving, and especially in parking, where the tight steering and 37-foot turning circle combine to make parking, even parallel parking, a simple maneuver.
We were concerned that the upright windshield might impede the view of stoplights that hang above an intersection, but we experienced no such problem. But we did like the secure feeling you get driving or riding in a vehicle that gives you the sensation of being in a rolling fortress.
A suspension system designed to deal with extreme hazards of off-road driving improves on-road performance as well, whether it's in the way the traction control operates on slippery surfaces or the way the shock absorbers and secondary jounce bumpers make smooth work of pot holes in the pavement.
Engaging low range readjusts the computer mapping to provide the slower throttle progression needed for safely stepping over boulders and other obstacles; low range also changes shift points in the automatic transmission to allow for higher torque in lower gears and linear rather than snappy shifts.
We were amazed how the stock H3 tackled a trail normally reserved for modified off-road vehicles. General Motors says its engineers and designers created the H3 to have best-in-class off-road ability. Our experience indicates that they achieved their goal. The H3 is an authentic Hummer.
The all-new Hummer H3 offers outstanding off-road capabilities and, because of its smaller width, can fit into places where the bigger Hummers can't go. The H3 also is an affordable Hummer. Its base price is less than $30,000. You can equip one with leather and power seats and with an automatic transmission and stability control and you're still in the mid-$30,000 range, the heart of the mid-size SUV market. You're also spending nearly $10,000 less than you'd pay for the Land Rover LR3, perhaps the only vehicle in the category that might challenge the H3 off pavement.

Background: Malnutrition is common in hospitalized injured patients. It contributes to delayed fracture-healing and increased morbidity. However, relatively little attention has been directed toward nutritional strategies for augmenting musculoskeletal recovery after a fracture. This animal study was designed to examine the effects of dietary protein intake and the role of conditionally essential amino acids in muscle and bone-healing after a fracture.
Methods: One hundred adult male rats were used. Ten rats served as controls and received a 15% protein diet throughout the study. The remaining ninety rats received a 6% protein diet for five weeks to induce protein malnutrition. The rats underwent intramedullary nailing and closed midshaft fracture of one femur. After the fracture, they were separated into three isocaloric dietary groups. Group P6 received a diet with 6% protein; Group P15, a diet with 15% protein; and group P30, a diet with 30% protein with conditionally essential amino acids. At two, four, and six weeks after surgery, ten animals from each group were killed and the femora were evaluated with dual x-ray absorptiometry, histomorphometric assessment of callus, and torsional testing. The quadriceps muscles were analyzed for total mass, total protein content, and for mRNA expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), IGF-2, IGF receptors, actin, myosin, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).
Results: The P30 group demonstrated elevations in albumin, body mass, muscle mass, total protein content of muscle, and bone mineral density in the fracture callus compared with the P6 diet group at six weeks (p < 0.05). Molecular analysis of muscle revealed that IGF-1, IGF-2, IGF receptors, myosin, actin, and VEGF gene expression were significantly (p < 0.001) higher in the P6 group compared with the P30 group. Biomechanical testing of the femora, however, showed no significant differences.
Conclusions: Dietary supplementation with conditionally essential amino acids in malnourished animals had anabolic effects on bone mineralization, body mass, and muscle mass.
Clinical Relevance: Identifying methods for augmenting skeletal muscle and fracture-healing by means of oral protein supplementation may provide cost-effective, direct clinical benefits to orthopaedic patients.

I have literally used this sweet babe of a mug every day since it arrived. I love it!!!!
Slowing down to find out what matters
My name is Holly and I am the creator and designer behind Mint House.
I have a background in sewing and printmaking, but have recently rediscovered my love for ceramics.
I am interested in ceramics because of the drawn out process where each stage is an
exciting step. The excitement of opening a kiln is one of the best parts.
I also find that the idea you start out with is often much different when it is completed.
I am inspired by patterns, vintage illustrations, japanese and scandanavian design,
florals and animals.
Positivity. Creativity. Simplicity. Love.
Holly lives and works in Richmond, VA.

Day 72 - Avignon of Popes and Palaces
After getting use to the sound of hoot owls in the night we slept in until 8:00am this morning. We awoke to a low cloud level and cool temperatures but the promise of a sunny day lay ahead. After a pot of coffee (loved that after a month of espressos) and a light breakfast, we took a walk through the village of Noves.
Noves is is a very small village with only a few hundred inhabitants. At one time there were ramparts around the town but only a few remain along with a few ...

There were literally hundreds eating out. We enjoyed the spectacle of Avignon but found it hard to enjoy it all due to the excessive heat. Where we camped was also between two main roads so between the traffic and the heat it was remorseless. It did not cool down until about 3am in the ...

Thanks....still deciding.
After the "volume" workout Friday, my low-back is
sore along the upper hip line. Not sure if the creatine has anything to do with this...low-back pump, etc. is often felt as low-back stiffness for me.
If not that, then the next culprit is the slightly lowered squats. They were light but I've been grooving to pin setting "11" for so long that dropping down to "10" might have irritated me. I know my back started to flex at the bottom. I do not plan to compete so maybe staying with the safe setting (which is still parallel as far as I can tell) is the way to go.
Last possibility is the one-arm DB presses. It does feel like rotation is more aggravating right now than flex/extend. Resisting rotation and stabilizing might have been enough to tighten up my QLs, erectors, etc. It's also a tendency since my spine surgery. I can work back to handling more rotation. Unilateral and rotational work is critical to me since injury and the PL stuff so far has been bilateral and mostly sagittal plane.
Just thinking out loud.
I feel like I could dead lift today, so that's the plan for now.

Recent guest reviews
I recently spent three nights at Hotel Relais Acropolis. Its about a 15 minute walk to the sea front, However, it will take you longer as you will want to take in the sites along the way. There is a beautiful park with to enjoy on route. We found some wonderful restaurants near the hotel. The rooms are clean and the breakfast was simple but very good.
I can say that I have never meet so nice and helpful ladies at the reception! They arange everything to us and tell all the informations we need while we stay at Nice. We stay here for 6 nights and the rooms were also cleaned every single day and the towels and sheets were also changed every day. The only bad thing is that we can rate the hotel with 2 stars + not 3* because the room is very small and in a little bad condition, but I can stil recommend it to all visitors of Nice because it also have a great location! Just a few steps away from biggest market Carrefour and bus station is just a five minute walk away.
One of the greatest hotels ever!!!! Merci beaucoup pour tout!! I would love to come back there again and to recommend it to my friends and family. Real thankful about the kindness and the help of the staff!
We spent five nights at this hotel which is located in a central position for the shops, bars and restaurants and the tourist sights of Nice. A short walk, of about 500mtrs. takes you to a tram stop where trams are frequent for the main shopping area and the main SNCF rail station. It is less than a 20 minute walk to the port and/or the Promenade des Anglais. The starting point for Bus No. 98 is not far away and this goes direct to both airport terminals. It could be regarded as a small hotel, but we found that there was always someone on hand close to the reception desk. As a result it felt safe and secure. The staff here are wonderful. I had a bit of trouble getting connected to the free Wi-Fi in the bedroom, but with a bit of tuition from the nice lady on reception, I was soon able to surf the net without any disruption. We were on the third floor overlooking the main road, but there was no noise from the traffic, although we did not have the window open with it being November. The room was spotlessly clean and all the necessary amenities were provided. Breakfast was from 06-30hrs and we were well pleased with everything that was provided. Most of the food was wrapped which made everything seem hygienic We could not fault this hotel in any way and we thought that all the staff who we met during our stay were pleasant and fulfilled their tasks beyond the call of duty. I would even go as far as to say that they were the most helpful that I have ever experienced.. Should we come back to Nice, this hotel would be our first choice.
Currently staying at this hotel and it has been a terrible stay from the minute we arrived. We didn't get what we payed for the room type, housekeeper just enters the room when she pleases so if you want privacy you might want to reconsider.. Manager has an attitude of 'so what? What do you want me to do' as a manager thats just a bad attitude your guests should be your main priority! Requested a refund being given which was refused but no worries will be contacting our booking agency once home. We basically been sharing our room with the house keeper who just comes in and out as she pleases without knocking! Wifi has been terrible.. We didn't get what we payed for "twin room" instead we got a double and tiny single bed in the corner of the room. You are given 1 single shower gel for 2 people? No tea or coffee in the room. The website is deceiving the rooms/hotel looks nothing like the images on the internet. The only thing that has been great is the receptionist Roxana who showed that she is deeply sorry for what's been done to us as well as show compassion! We hope that she finds a better place who will show her the right way to run a business. I deeply recommend you think twice before booking this hotel!! All in all beautiful country!
We were only here one night, but our room was very modern and well appointed, with a full bathtub in the bathroom, which I loved. The staff is very friendly and helpful and there is free parking right up the street. There are several restaurants up and down the street that the hotel is on so you don't have to go very far for a good meal. It's also close to the metro train.
The hotel was spotless ,,great sized room , quiet , nice bathroom , lovely breakfast area , large choice for breakfast , staff at reception always very helpful , breakfast & cleaning staff also very nice and helpful , great location for Nice old town , Nice centre for shopping , the beach a nice walk through place de massena , I shall be staying here on my next visit to France, highly recommended
The room was typical European- small but functional. The continental breakfast was also convenient (at 12 Euro, you are definitely paying for convenience rather than the food). The location is perfect if you are attending a conference at the Acropolis across the street, and the tram is one block away, making the rest of the city easily accessible. However, the greatest attribute of the hotel is the personnel; I can't say enough positive things about the staff. Each time I asked a silly question, they were ready to provide a helpful response. This was my first trip to France, and they were immensely helpful with finding the famous Bus 100 to Monaco, using the tram, and more. I would be happy to stay there again.
The hotel is very easy to get to from the 98 bus directly from the airport, although your bus ticket will get you even closer as it is valid on the tram too. It's situated very close to restaurants and a supermarket is just across the street. Plenty of shops nearby. The staff are fantastic, especially Audrey who speaks very good English! Nothing is too much trouble for her. The breakfast is good, if a little small on the selection; with pastries, cereals, yoghurt, toast, fruit, hams and eggs there's enough for a decent start to the day but it would get boring after more than the three days we were there. The rooms are tiny! We booked the superior double room which had a double and single bed and there was very little space. We were in room 207, which is supposedly one of the larger rooms, so I'd hate to see the standard rooms. Unfortunately, the bathroom was absolutely rank with black mould (see my pictures) and poorly cleaned. There were hairs in the sink and shaving hairs on the side of the bath. The smell of damp and mould was quite horrible. In the drawer there was a dirty knife and a blob of something unsavoury. The hospitality tray we were given to take to our room, and told it would be taken by housekeeping, was still there on the desk 3 days later. The rest of the hotel was very clean. The lift stops on every other floor, so there's a 1/2 flight of stairs you'll have to use if you're on the other floors. All in all, I wouldn't stay again as I think the £500+ we paid for 3 nights was too high for such a small room and with such a lack of cleanliness.
Lovely hotel. Modern with great rooms, welcoming , friendly staff and good continental breakfast. Location handy for main beach front, old town and city centre attractions. On tram route but also within walking distance of beach etc(20 mins). Would stay there again when visiting Nice in the future.

The offer to non-members, who include some who refused to join the pounds 10.5bn scheme when they arrived at the Post Office, runs to the end of June.
Only a handful of public sector employers have made arrangements to readmit pension scheme members who left as a result of the personal pensions mis- selling scandal, which came to light more than two years ago.
Members of schemes such as the mineworkers, the teachers, the nurses and the Post Office were tempted by hard selling to drop the often substantial benefits of their corporate schemes and take up personal pensions that offered less security and lower pensions.
The Securities and Investments Board stepped in when the scale of the problem came to light, and pension providers are expected to pay substantial damages to customers who were sold the wrong policies. But so far no cases have reached court and no compensation has been paid.
The Post Office said "The amnesty gives our people a second chance if they feel they made a mistake, perhaps after being targeted by personal pension sales teams. Many responded immediately to our offer and more are following as they calculate the benefits."
Under the rules of the scheme, many of the 11,000 employees are prevented from rejoining by age or time limits, but the Post Office said the present circumstances were unusual.
A survey by the Post Office found that four out of five of its employees who opted out of the scheme did so to take out personal pensions, but the majority regretted it and now wanted to change their minds and get back in.
Two-thirds of those who had never joined the company scheme also wanted a second chance to become members. Although the 11,000 will be able to regain the benefits of the Post Office's generous state sector scheme, they will not be able to replace the benefits lost during their period outside the scheme, except by suing the personal pension providers for compensation.
Among the other state employees hit by the scandal, the Home Office has agreed to amend legislation that prevents the 400 police who left their pension scheme rejoining.
