Looking at: 1. It looks like it's checking links for '/' and '/Overview.html' (with recursive on)? 2. It's complaining about two fragment identifiers as discussed below. [17:32:41] <reagleHOM> also, is a link checker guru here? i don't know what the problem is with the fragment-id's on the dsig spec...? [17:32:48] <reagleHOM> sha1: 1745, 2494 [17:33:44] <reagleHOM> the fragment id's, i suspoct something is getting confused with the namespace redirect [17:34:00] <reagleHOM> but all the other fragments work, just the sha1 and base64 seem to fail [17:34:15] <hugo> hmmm... is text/xml, right? [17:34:16] <reagleHOM> is a real URI.... but linkchecker don't think so... [17:34:23] <reagleHOM> hugo, depends what you ask for [17:35:33] <hugo> it seems that the link checker doesn't get <> [17:35:39] <reagleHOM> hugo: xmldsig namespace does a redirect based on [17:35:42] <hugo> well, I don't know; report a bug :-) [17:35:54] <reagleHOM> what accept does link checker send? [17:36:15] <hugo> none, I think, which is a mistakeReceived on Thursday, 5 December 2002 17:42:01 GMT

The current SOAP MTOM document uses several namespace prefixes -- aof, xbinc, env, httpo -- without identifying the associated namespace name before using a prefix. The SOAP MTOM document should include a "Notational Conventions" section after the "Introduction" section, and the "Notational Conventions" section should include a table of "Prefixes and Namespaces used in the specification" in the manner of the SOAP 1.2 Part 1 and Part 2 Recommendations. The property defined in Table 1 of the current SOAP MTOM document uses a QName rather than a URI for the property name. The SOAP MTOM document should note that the URI for the property name has yet to be decided.

I sent comments maybe six months ago complaining that the primer was propagating the artificial "document vs. RPC" terminology that WSDL imposed on the world. I was extremely happy to read the new primer that went out with the specs. The characterization of how things works seemed way more reasonable (where reasonable is defined as my way of thinking :-)). In reading section 2.2 (and 2.2.1), the prose is so close to perfect, but there's something about it that I wonder about. The section uses the term "XML document" to refer to the body content of an envelope. The term "XML document" has some pretty deep implications - think document entity, DTD, etc. Just look at the first sentence of the XML 1.0 spec: "Extensible Markup Language, abbreviated XML, describes a class of data objects called XML documents and partially describes the behavior of computer programs which process them. " If someone wanted to include an actual XML document inside a SOAP envelope, the most natural way to do it is to use some PASWA-style technique to put the opaque document entity inside the envelope, either by value or by reference. Perhaps the primer could use the term "XML-based content" instead of XML document? DBReceived on Thursday, 8 May 2003 03:02:13 GMT

You might not realize it, but I've had my blog for over a year now! Yup, yesterday was my one-year blogging anniversary. Daddy had the idea and started it for me, and Mommy took over and has been helping me ever since. If you want to see my very first post, you can click here. (I didn't remember my head being quite so bare when I was little...how embarrassing!)
A Dog to Love
Now, here's a dog I can LOVE! Ooohhh, I love him so much.
Ooohh, love for the dog...
Look, he has a nose, and eyes...
I love this dog! Mommy loves him, too. In fact, this dog is her favorite dog in the whole world. He's cute, and he doesn't bark, shed, drool, or-well, you get the idea. Mommy loves this dog, and Daddy and I do, too.
Dogs and Trucks
We just had a very exciting morning! We went to visit some dogs and trucks that live at our friends' house. There were four little baby dogs, two big dogs, and two trucks. We had so much fun! I loved visiting the dogs, but I kept getting distracted by my walking ability and running away to look at the trucks. Mommy and Daddy even let me get a little dirty. It was great! Here are some pictures of all the fun we had together. Thanks, Mr. Dane and Mrs. Amber, for sharing your dogs and trucks with me!
Background on Ira
This post is from my mommy-she wants to tell you some things about Ira. The next one will be from me! -Jonathan
Lots of you have been asking about Ira, how old he is, how we know him, etc. He was born April 21, 2005, and we don't know him, but he is on our hearts. Ira's grandparents have been important in the lives of our good friends, Jay and Caroline (Emma Claire's parents.) If you want to know more about Ira's story, you can click here to read the December 2004 posts when Ira's parents found out about the problems he would have-right around Jonathan's birthday. Click here to read about what went on around the time of Ira's birth last April. And, if you want to help him, you can also send a donation and pray, pray, pray. I can only imagine what his parents are going through.
OK, the next post will be from Jonathan and be much more fun! -Jonathan's mommy
The Squinting Game
The rules of the game are that you have to play the game with your mom instead of eating your dinner. Here's how you do it:
1. Squint so that you can barely see
2. Get Mommy to make the same squinty face
3. Laugh hysterically
It's a great game to play at dinner time!
Bear Hugs
The Many Faces of Jonathan
Camera
Pray for Ira
If you've been following Ira's story, you should check Ira's blog today. His Mommy and Daddy have not been able to hold him in almost two months, and the doctors have been making him sleep that whole time, too. I hope you'll read about him and pray for him today!
Walking
I!
The Biggest Snow Ever!
Last night while I was sleeping, something amazing happened. Lots of snow fell down everywhere!
Daddy is holding me in the snow at our house. Yahoo!
Here's what our street looks like covered with snow.
Daddy, this snow may only be up to your ankles, but it's almost up to my knees!
What do I do now?
We've had enough of the cold...time to go inside.
The News of a Lifetime
You probably guessed from the title what I'm about to tell you next. I started walking today! My record for the day was thirteen steps in a row! Mommy and Daddy can hardly believe it, since I had only taken two steps in a row before today. I'll try to pose for a walking picture soon so that you can see me. I think the hardest thing about walking is remembering that I can do it. Sometimes in the middle of my steps, I start to squat down to crawl because that's what I normally do in the middle of the floor. But then I remember-I don't have to crawl! So, I stand back up and keep walking. Yahoo, there's no turning back now!
In other news that's not so exciting, I added a couple of words to my vocabulary today. One was "more," a very important word that I say pretty clearly, and the other one was "ta," which means "pasta," of course. You might notice that most of my words are so similar-"dah" for "dog," "tuh" for "truck," and "ta" for "pasta." You might also wonder how Mommy and Daddy know what I'm saying. Well, the answer is that I have very smart parents. They are finally learning to speak Baby!
Dogs and Beans
I have a new word today: "Dog!" When Mommy and I went for our walk, we met a dog named Autumn. She was very sweet and sniffy, and I loved her, so I thought I'd say "dog" to her over and over. I wanted to take her home, but Mommy said, "We don't have a fence." I could have kept her in my room!
I also discovered that I love green beans. They are a great finger food. Emma Claire has liked them for a long time, but I never realized how wonderful they were until today. I guess life is full of surprises!
My Crawling Tube
Here are some pictures of me crawling in my tube before I went to bed last night. I like to go back and forth, in and out of my tube. I also like to stand outside of it and scratch my hand on the side. It makes a great swishing noise!
Happy Valentine's Day!
Today is a special day for showing love. Last year on Valentine's Day, Mommy and Daddy and I went to the grand opening of Quizno's. You might not think that it was very Valentiney, but I enjoyed it-even though they didn't give me a sandwich. This year, Mommy and Daddy are not including me in their plans. Daddy is going to make dinner for Mommy, and I'm not invited. I don't know why not. I know all about love! Maybe I will send some Valentine's love to some trucks, because that's what I love...TRUCKS! Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!
Sunday Adventures
Here is one of my blocks from Uncle Todd and Aunt Corinne. The blocks make different sounds when I shake them, and I like to take turns shaking each one.
Hold everything. I hear a dog barking!
I am not kidding. There is a dog out there, and I hear him barking again!
Now it's time to help Mommy with the laundry. I need to pull everything out of my hamper.
I have to pull out all the books before I can decide which one I want to read.
Snow!
There are pieces of snow falling from the sky this very moment! Daddy and I went outside to watch them fly around.
Snow is funny stuff.
14-Month Surprise
Here I am, driving my little trike. If you wonder about the look on my face, it's what I have to do to make the "Bbbbb" sound for driving. If you wonder about my new jumpsuit, that story is a little longer...
Yesterday, Mommy and I went with Emma Claire and her mommy to a consignment sale. That's where you buy stuff that other kids already wore and played with. Mommy bought me a great navy blue jumpsuit with a dog on it, size 18 mos. I love it! But today, after she washed it and put it on me, it was too short to stay snapped. (Mommy says, "You have a long torso." OK, Mommy.) So, she took me out of that and put me in this jumpsuit, size 24 mos. Mommy thought this outfit would be for next winter. I don't think I'm going to be this size next winter, do you? I think I'm doing a good job of keeping Mommy and Daddy guessing.
So Big!
Mommy and Daddy say it all the time: "He's getting so big!" They're right...I'll show you what they mean.
I can close the doors to the TV all by myself.
I can walk with Daddy holding just one hand.
I can climb onto my chair and sit myself down whenever I want to.
Yahoo, I like getting big!
More Visiting Adventures
Here are the rest of the pictures I have to show you from our visit with Grandma, Grandpa, Lou, and Lionel. There are more, but I'm much more into playing than posting!
Here I am with Grandpa and my new truck that he gave me. It's friends with the big, yellow truck from Uncle Todd.
I can sit on my bench from Lou and Lionel. It has animals on the back! There's room here for my little buddies, too.
This is my Big Truck book from Grandpa. I think I get the most excited about this gift. Mommy says, "That's my son-he loves his books!"
Here is everybody who spent the weekend together: Grandpa, Grandma, Lou, Lionel, me, Mommy, and Daddy.

Whole.
I can eat cookies all year round! Keep ‘em coming, girl!
I love snickerdoodles. Nothing wrong with celebrating Christmas all year…especially if yummy cookies are involved
Christmas all year long!!
Those look fantastic!!
I am loving all the cookie recipes you’ve been posting lately! Especially these snickerdoodles! Yum!
I looove snickerdoodles!!! Great recipe! Thanks for sharing it!
Gah.. snickerdoodles are one of my favorite cookies ever! Thanks for the recipe!!
Love it, great idea! I love snickerdoodles!
I love Snickerdoodles! One of my favorite cookies
I’m down with Christmas in July! I made my first Snickerdoodles last Christmas and fell in love. Soooo good!!
I have been eating cookies and cake and everything related to the holidays. You know…if you get too many cookies you can always mail them to me.
Snickerdoodles will always remind me of my 8th grade spanish teacher. She was obsessed with them and frequently baked them and sold them to us to raise money for the school’s community service club. She was the sweetest woman ever! I haven’t had snickerdoodles since and these would be perfect to quell the cravings!
These look delicious!!
Don’t apologize……cookies are always welcome in my book! LOL!
Wow those cookies look amazing. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a snickerdoodle cookie
These look delicious! And I want Christmas too, you aren’t the only one
I’ve actually never had a Snickerdoodle! They look good though.
Snickerdoodles are the best! Those are probably my favorite cookie to bake.
I’m a sucker for cookies, and I have no idea why, but I usually just opt for chocolate chip. I love snickerdoodles though! Thanks for the reminder
I totally would love to have a “Christmas in July” party and just have a bunch of Christmas cookies! How fun would that be?!
I know!
Mmm these look so good, ive never tried snicker doodles before! Ive been feeling really christmassy recently too! Dont know why!
Snickerdoodles are always a winner! YUM!
ohmy. I luurve me some cookies. Wanna share?
I could eat Snickerdoodles all year round! And it’s funny you mention Christmas, I was just thinking about seasonal food items and how I wish I could eat them in summer
Looks absolutely delicious. I’m craving these now!
!! These look sooo good girl! I usually like cookies with chocolate but snickerdoodles are my exception
Does the coconut oil give it any coconutty flavor?
I thought it would, but it didn’t!
You shouldn’t feel bad for posting a cookie recipe!! The more yummy recipes, the better! The cookies look yummy.
I don’t usually like snickerdoodles but these look goooood! I’m thinking it’s b/c I know the whole wheat flour will give it a more wholesome taste and flavor.
Oh YUM!!! I love how you used Whole Wheat Flour! I’ve never seen snickerdoodles with Whole Wheat. THAT IS SO AWESOME!!!! I love how healthy these are!
Wow, Kayla! These look incredible! My mom and I both loooveee snickerdoodles, and now, thanks to you, I can make make healthy ones
<3
Haha! I was singing a Christmas song a week or two ago and was like, “why am I singing that?”. If Chrsitmas were in summer, that would be cool. But then there would be nothing to look forward to in winter, so I guess we can leave the calender be
These look amazing! I’m going to make them tonight
Oh yum! They do remind me of Christmas
omg these are perfect! My BF loves snickerdoodles so if I can healthify them a bit, all the better!! Thanks for the recipe, girl!
hey Kayla! How’s it goin? Haven’t talked to you in a while because you haven’t posted! Hope you are having a great summer
And yes, the pecan sticky buns are delicious
Hi!! I know, I’ve been so busy and kind of “out of the blog world” lately! Are you playing tennis during the summer?
Haha…I know what you mean! And yes. I play tennis every summer, every day, all year round
Hey, do you also have a blog called “Once upon a lense?” Because I saw that blog and the picture looks just like you….
yes! that’s me!
Ahaha I absolutely love Christmas in July!! my bdays coming up so I always consider it like Christmas with all the presents and parties and such! i miss your posting and commenting girlie, hope you and your family are doing well!
Hey girl! Thanks for your comment on my blog (-; And I hope you like Inception! It is suchhh a good movie!
And I LOVE christmas. So this picture- to me- is beautiful!
xo
Em
Snickerdoodles are my husband’s favorite cookies. I should most definitely try this recipe sometime soon!
I miss reading your posts! I hope all is well with you and I can’t wait until you find time to blog again.
snickerdoodles are my favorite cookies to bring to my friends. every international exchange program i’ve done, i’ve made them for the other delegates. they go nuts for the cinnamon sugar delights! i love that you’ve pumped up the nutrition by making them whole wheat. i will definitely remember this recipe so i can feel a little bit better about giving my friends wholesome treats to eat.
These remind me of winter – so yum!
I love them, I love them, I love them!! I made Snickerdoodles for the first time last year and absolutely adored them. Good to know these are totally whole wheat, too!
I love snickerdoodles! Would this recipe still work if I omitted the tartar?
beautiful cookies!!!!!!!!! Cookie baking is definitely an art!!! I love when I find a good recipe that creates the right fluff, flavor, texture, crunch, etc. These look fantastic!! I will put them on my to-bake list!!
Love it! Thanks for linking to my blog under your “To Make” section! I hope you get a chance to make the pizza dough, it’s a toughie but worth the effort! | http://littlemisshealthify.wordpress.com/2011/06/08/whole-wheat-snickerdoodles/ | 2013-05-18T10:53:04 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Black Bean Salsa
1 (14.5 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed1 (14.5 oz) can light red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14.5 oz) can whole kernel corn
1 can white shoe peg corn
1/2 red pepper, chopped
1/2 red onion, finely diced
2 Tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped
1 small bottle (12 oz.) Zesty Italian Dressing
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Toss to coat. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving. Serve with tortilla chips.
This recipe is so easy and so very good! I think the next time I make it, I'll serve it on top of a tossed salad.
Note: I couldn't find white shoe peg corn, but it tasted fine without it.
I got this recipe from this rockin' blog.
Thanks for stopping by and God bless.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Matthew 5:7

We make this all the time, but don't use store bought dressing. Just squeeze a lime, add a little bit of olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. I just use regular corn too.
Love this recipe..it is one of my favorites and I've been making it about once/week! Delicious!!

Art in Liverpool – Man Ray’s Indestructible Object, Tate Liverpool.
Man Ray is one the oddest figures to ever appear in the world of art. His work seems so inconsistent with itself that each piece of his could be by a different artist altogether. His name carries weight though and his role in the direction of art during the 20th century is key to the development of what we now call contemporary art. With the new Marianne Faithfull curated DLA Piper series comfortably installed in Tate Liverpool, the gallery space offers the viewer a chance to see one of Man Ray’s best known and most personal works for free.
Indestructible Object has that sense of aura around it similar to Dali’s Lobster Telephone or Duchamp’s infamous Urinal. All these items are a solid physical collage, mixing objects together to exaggerate the juxtaposition and perhaps even a build a relationship between the two so they intern raise discourse about each other.
Indestructible Object fits this ideology to the tee and is physical a metronome with the photo of an eye attached to its hand. The relationship between the artist and the person of the photograph is clearly a sad one, with the piece seeming to mourn the loss of relationship. The metronome’s lack of movement suggests a dead love and makes the piece feel surreal but emotionally charged at the same time.
With the metronome’s job to keep the pulse of time redundant, it seems that the piece is almost mocking the artist’s constant thoughts of the person in the photograph. There’s something almost masochistic about it, though the therapeutic aspect of creating the sculpture in the first place must have helped Man Ray at the time. This fits well with the theme of the exhibition as a whole but is easily the most powerful exponent of these ideas. With so many big pieces in the exhibit, a lesser piece of the same size would be swamped by the surrounding William Blakes and Francis Bacons. This is a piece of art that can hold its own and is immensely powerful for its quaint and quite charming size that almost asks the viewer to underestimate it.
Though the piece on show isn’t the original, this matters very little. The themes of the work dominate the space, belying its small size and proving that objects can sometimes say far more than words ever can.
Indestructible Object is now on display at the DLA Piper series: Innocence and Experience at Tate Liverpool. Entry is free.

H&M Launches 'Fashion Family' Clothing
Would you dress in matching clothes with your family? Retailer H&M thinks it's a good idea, based on their new collection of clothes created for mother-daughter duos, father-son duos, and all sorts of other family pairings.
The Fashion Family collection is made for parents and children, making it possible for families to collaborate on their style by dressing in matching sweaters, jackets, skinny jeans and more, taking the concept of “mini-me” to a whole new level.
H&M says the line will include “complementary pieces with just enough edge to kick off Holiday dressing for the whole gang."
Check out this video to see a preview of the collection. Actually, we think some of these pieces are pretty darn cute, even if we have always avoided dressing like our family members at all costs.
The Fashion Family collection will hit H&M shelves this Monday, Oct. 22.
Tell us: Do you advocate families dressing alike?

John and I flew together to Boston today for our daughter's parents' weekend. While he has apparently done fine traveling on his own, I find it hard not to get impatient traveling with him. I had to stop him from getting on the wrong rental car bus--arrangements he had made. A couple of other times he acknowledged he had gotten confused, as well as just the slowness.
We are staying with my mother, who is impressed by how cheerful he is. She says he seems more engaged. I said I think a lot of that is the benefits of Alzheimer's medication (I think she should try taking it fairly soon).

I trust you are all well and rested. It’s nearly Comedy Festival time so why not come and celebrate the formation of the brand new sketch comedy group 'Merit Badge: Adventure' by buying many tickets to see “The Increasingly Handsome Adventures of Earl Bircher and Other Tales of Adventures!”
It’s a three part serial + sketch show that pays homage to the great adventure serials of the ‘40s and films like Indiana Jones and Mystic Pizza (one for the ladies). You’ll laugh and cry (tears of joy – or soy if you’re not a joy person).

Thank you for your time and your patronage. Enjoy!

Here's an easy design for a heart gift box. I have been experimenting with different materials to create texture in designs and decided to try raffia ribbon (the one I used is made from rayon). I hooked a heart shape for the lid of a paper mache box with fabric, variegated yarn and raffia for lots of texture. I pulled up extra long loops for more texture! I also thought I should try a lid with a locker hooked "ruched frame" design so I created one for a smaller box. See images…Continue

So pleased I found your site. I don't think locker hooking is big in New Zealand yet, I had to make my own needle from a dollmakers needle! Was lockerhooking till 2am this morning,dont know where the time went.Thanks for the welcome.
Thank you for the email and the great web site. One of the first things I ordered from Amazon to get me started on Locker Hooking was one of your great books. I belong to a small 'knitting etc" group and I usually end up mostly enjoying the chatting because if I'm crocheting or knitting, I lose track of where I'm at, lol. I think that will not happen so much with locker hooking. Thanks again and looking forward to your next book.
thanks for your warm welcome. so far I cut a piece out of the canvas I bought at the fabric store about 6"X6" and used the plarn that I was crocheting with. Turned out real nice. I put it under a plant that I was trying to sell at the farmer's market and got some nice comments on it. Haven't had time to look at any detailed info yet. Looks like I should be able to make a plarn rectangle and turn it into a purse to add to my crochet purses that I sell at the market. Thank you for such a nice and inspiriational site.
So cool you like my work, discovering locker hooking has been such an inspiration to me. I love it because it is so versatile! I even talked about locker hooking and your site in my little blog today (I hope you don't mind). Here it is! When I finish a chair project and the wall hanging, the leather is the next to try. I think the company sells the scrap (huge beautiful pieces) by the lb. and it is rumored to be around $4 a lb. Oh and to answer your question about FB and the pictures, I would be flattered for you to share them. Have a fantastic day! Thanks again!
Thanks so much for your welcoming comment! I absolutely love locker hooking and I appreciate how much you have done for the craft. When I found this forum I was excited to be able to ask you a question, and I'm just tickled to get the chance! I have read that some people locker hook with leather. There is a leather manufacturing company in the town I live in and I am able to get scrap leather by the lb, for a great price. What I wanted to know was if you have ever tried to use it, and what suggestions do you have? Thanks so much! - Vera
Hi Theresa, Thank you for accepting my application to join your website. I fell in love with what you are doing. I would love to learn more about it and hopefully get my daughter involved as well. Yes, it is me from Creative Labs. Looks like you have always had the "Creative" touch.
I have checked out your video ... love it.
Roxanne Amaya
I saw your book in a local craft store. I purchased it, and then watched you on You tube. I have made some fun projects. I did the house blessings, but gave it away before I took a picture....
Thanks for letting me join your group. I have one more side to stitch together on one of the purses I made after getting your book. I have a blog if any one would like to look at some the projects I've done to pass the time. Always look forward to seeing what others or doing and share what I have done.
Karen
Theresa, Sadly we are to the "Trade Only". Only way I get any is when a tile is discontinued. Probably a good thing for my check book LOL
Hi Theresa, I will go to Hobby Lobby and purchase the aluminum hook per your suggestion. Looking forward to my first project.

The Kansas City Chiefs. Does any other team name scream as much ineptitude (besides maybe [and that's maybe] the Oakland Raiders)? Well those same Chiefs are at their inept ways again, this time considering bringing Brett Favre in, instead of giving mop-topped third-year man Brodie Croyle a shot. I guess because Elvis Grbac and Trent Green didn’t work out, so the Chiefs can just bring in another old quarterback who can’t take a helmet-to-helmet collision. Yeah, people, the Chiefs haven’t won a playoff game since 1993. Ouch. That sounds almost like the Dallas Cowboys.
So the Chiefs are willing to pilfer other rosters for their quarterbacks. With good reason, too. Just look at the last five quarterbacks they’ve drafted:
2006, R3P85: Brodie Croyle
1997, R4P110: Pat Barnes
1995, R4P114: Steve Stenstrom
1994, R7P199: Steve Matthews
1992, R2P40: Matt Blundin
Yeah. No superstars there. Carl Peterson just feels the need to steal his quarterbacks because he’s too inept (I’m really hitting hard on this word) to draft them. And what would even pull Favre to Kansas City? Sure, there’s Larry Johnson, Dwayne Bowe, and Tony Gonzalez, but is there an offensive line? Favre isn’t 32 anymore, when he could take those hits. Sorry, KC, not happening. Try to do this thing called developing young quarterbacks. I hear it pays off in the long run. Not this:

Über mining promoter Robert Friedland is circling the financial wagons, preparing to stave off a future takeover of Ivanhoe Mines and its Oyu Tolgoi project by mega-miner Rio Tinto.
Robert Friedland clearly drew a line in the sand to prevent Rio Tinto from slowly taking over Ivanhoe Mines as the master strategist/mining entrepreneur resumed the CEO’s position, and Ivanhoe declared it is undertaking a $US800 million to US$1 billion equity rights offering, despite Rio Tinto’s opposition.

Is Iran’s nuclear program peaceful? Columnist Bulent Kenes ponders.
Among others, the author points out that Iran cannot compete with rich Gulf countries, particularly Saudi Arabia, in conventional armament. Even if it invests all of its revenues from oil and natural gas exports –which are its main source of income — in developing or procuring conventional weapons, Iran cannot be successful in this competition. Iran’s greatest rival in the region, Saudi Arabia spends about $45 billion for weapons procurement every year, and it placed two orders with the US in late 2011 and early 2012, which totaled $90 billion.
So in a nutshell, although the unit costs of nuclear armament is higher than those of conventional armament, nuclear armament creates a higher deterrence factor with a lower cost, therefore an Iranian nuclear weapons program emerges as a rational choice.
The author points out that the programs for developing intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs), with a range of 3,000-5,500 kilometers, and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) with a range greater than 5,500 kilometers, to which Iran attaches great importance, are further proof that its nuclear program is not peaceful. In particular, given the parallelism between the progress made in the development and production of ICBMs and in the nuclear program, we have more reasons to doubt the intention of these programs, the author says.
While Iran is trying very hard to achieve its nuclear goal, oil rich Saudi Arabia is taking a short cut by negotiating in Beijng the purchase of Chinese nuclear-capable Dong-Fen 21 ((NATO-codenamed CSS-5) ballistic missile DEBKAfile reported. China, which has agreed to the transaction in principle, would also build a base of operations near Riyadh for the new Saudi purchases.
However, even before Saudi Arabia is nuclear equipped, Iran is facing far more advanced nuclear powers such as the US and Israel.
Looking from a watcher’s perspective, Iran appears to be just following a script written for her thousands of years in advance. While there is no evidence from Scripture that Iran will strike a nuclear blow to Israel or the US, Scripture implies that the end times conditions are present in the 21st century, according to the Washington Times article.. | http://lookup.upway.com/?p=4811 | 2013-05-18T10:12:21 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Halos staying positive despite deficit
Lackey squaring off vs. Burnett with LA's season on line
ANAHEIM -- They know what they are up against, trailing the Yankees 3-1 in this American League Championship Series. But even on the brink of elimination, the Angels see no reason to back away from a challenge, steep as it might be.
"We've got a mountain to climb," said Angels center fielder Torii Hunter. "We've just got to know we have to go out there [Thursday] and try to get that win. It's a must-win. It's not like we've got games left. We can't go out there and let these guys win. If they do, it's over with. We're going to come with a different mindset and try to have some fun and get the job done."
Wednesday was an off-day for the Angels, a chance of sorts to regroup in advance of what will easily be their biggest game of 2009.
"We've just got to keep battling with those guys, and I think we can get it done," said.
Since the LCS adopted the best-of-seven format in 1985, 22 of the 28 teams that have held a 3-1 lead have gone to the World Series.
The Angels will try to join the 1985 Royals, '85 Cardinals, '86 Red Sox, '96 Braves and the 2004 and '07 Red Sox as teams that have overcome 3-1 deficits in LCS play and advanced to the World Series.
Including their Division Series sweep over the Red Sox, the Angels have produced 17 winning streaks this season of three games or more. Now, they need a big 18th to get them in the World Series.
"We have one more game to fight back and see if we can get back in this thing," said Angels third baseman Chone Figgins. "We're obviously facing the best of the best. They're playing great right now."
One thing the Angels want to do is play as tension-free as they can in Game 5, when they will have their ace on the mound and the home crowd at their back for one last time in this series.
"We don't have any pressure," said Hunter. "We're down 3-1. There's no pressure. We're just going to go out there and play, do what we have to do and play the game the right way, hopefully. We do that, I think we have a chance to get that game, hopefully. The pressure is not on us."
As reporters filtered into the clubhouse following Tuesday's game, Angels first-base coach Alfredo Griffin said several times to no one in particular, "We're going to win three in a row. Write it down."
PERFECTLY TIMED STREAK
If such an improbable scenario becomes a reality, the first chapter will have to be authored by John Lackey, the ace of the Angels. He will start Game 5, opposite New York righty A.J. Burnett.
"Lackey, he's a bulldog," said Hunter. "If there's anyone I'm comfortable with, it's definitely Lackey. We've got to try to get some runs for him and play some defense behind him."
And find a way to get some hits off Burnett, who has electric stuff.
"We just have to win the game no matter what. Win the game, go to New York," said Angels right fielder Bobby Abreu.
While the Angels desperately need Lackey to step up, they also need to get some hits. Aside from Game 3, the Los Angeles bats have been near silent in the series.
Figgins and Abreu, the Halos' 1-2 punch at the top, both have batting averages of .125. Hunter is hitting .235. Juan Rivera is at .118. Kendry Morales is hitting .125.
Where have all the hits gone?
"They are keeping the ball out of the hitting zone," said Figgins. "That's what the pitchers try to do. Their objective is to keep me off base. Right now, they're doing it. They know they have to keep doing it, because I'm going to come out fighting always."
But it's gotten to the point where the Angels can no longer just fight the good fight. They need to get results, or Game 5 will be their last this season.
For what would be the first time in this series, Angels manager Mike Scioscia wants his team to come out flying and put the Yankees on their heels.
"We need to come out there and gain some momentum," Scioscia said. "I don't think we've had a lead early in the ballgame yet this series. If we can start to play that type of game, this can change in a hurry. Our guys are confident. There is nobody in that clubhouse that's down. We know what's in front of us. We know where we have to get to, and there's a terrific challenge for us."
"I don't think there is anything about a short series when you're definitely out of it until you lose four games. Our guys know that. We'll have a good workout tomorrow. We'll come out here and hopefully play better and get some early runs."
Then there are the Yankees, who will, at all costs, try to avoid a repeat of what happened five years ago, when they blew a 3-0 ALCS lead to the Red Sox.
"We didn't come out to win three games in a series and be happy about it," said Yankees left fielder Johnny Damon. "We'll be happy if we get that fourth win. That's why we're here practicing today and we're going to go out and have a great practice. There's no going to be going through the motions or anything. We still have a job to do. Hopefully it happens [in Game 5]. If not, hopefully it happens soon after."
Are the Angels frustrated?
"When you're down 3-1, I wouldn't say frustrated," said Hunter, adding that he is more angry than frustrated. "We know baseball. It can turn around at any time."
They hope the Rally Monkey spends Game 5 dancing with excitement.
"We joke about the Rally Monkey all the time, but it's just us," said Hunter. "We've got to go out there and play our game and have faith in ourselves and not the Rally Monkey. We just have to know that we can get it done. It's not impossible. We just have to see what happens Thursday."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- David Wright may have agreed to a shiny new contract extension, but that was just one item on the Mets' winter agenda. In a way, it's actually the unofficial beginning of their Hot Stove season, because the team can now turn its attention fully to R.A. Dickey and the rest of its offseason issues.
General manager Sandy Alderson and his staff will spend their time at the Winter Meetings this week continuing to work on a contract extension for Dickey, while also attempting to plug holes in their outfield, at catcher and in the bullpen. And MLB.com will chronicle every piece of Alderson's plan as it falls into place at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel.
Don't underestimate the speed and magnitude of what teams can accomplish at the Winter Meetings, when all 30 GMs and scores of agents descend upon the same hotel for the better part of a week. Last year, Alderson made his three most significant offseason moves in the span of about an hour at the Meetings in Dallas, acquiring three bullpen arms and an outfielder.
This year, his priorities are even more specific. The Mets will look to continue negotiating with Dickey, and those talks could accelerate rapidly if the Nashville native shows his face at the Meetings. They will also meet with various agents as they try to acquire at least one impact outfielder, a right-handed catcher and a middle reliever or two. Trades remain a possibility as well.
Manager Terry Collins will also be in attendance and is scheduled to address the media Monday at 6 p.m. ET. No doubt he will relay his thoughts on Dickey, as well as further talk of whether he envisions Wright as a team captain. MLB.com will chronicle every word of it.
The Meetings close Thursday with the Rule 5 Draft, which always seems to find the Mets in the middle of it. Remember Brad Emaus two years ago? Or last year, when the Mets lost Rhiner Cruz to the Astros with the first overall pick? Such moves can ultimately prove significant.
So stay tuned to Mets.com all week for coverage of the Meetings and to MLB.com for plenty more from around the baseball world. Fans are encouraged to use the comment box to relay their own views of how the Mets' offseason is unfolding -- and there should be plenty of material to discuss.
In that regard, rarely do the Winter Meetings disappoint.

CHINO HILLS (CBS) — A San Bernardino County man is facing child cruelty charges after allegedly beating a young boy with a metal pole.
Paul Kim, 39, of Chino Hills, was arrested earlier this week on willful cruelty to a child charges, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.
An investigation into Kim began when an Irvine school official noticed that a young boy had severe bruising on the back of his legs. The school official filed a report with Child Protective Services, who then contacted authorities.
Investigators found that the victim’s family and Kim attended the same church in La Habra.
“Irvine police learned that the victim’s father dropped the victim off at Paul Kim’s home in Chino Hills to be disciplined after finding a lighter in the victim’s possession and suspecting that he had been smoking,” San Bernardino officials said in a press release.
The victim’s father gave Kim permission to use corporal punishment on his son. Authorities say Kim struck the boy on the back of his legs about a dozen times with a metal pole, measuring approximately one inch in diameter.
Kim is currently free on $100,000 bond.
Investigators believe Kim may have committed similar crimes with the permission of other families. Anyone with information should call the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, Crimes Against Children Division at (909) 387-3615. | http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2011/12/09/chino-hills-man-arrested-on-child-cruelty-charges/ | 2013-05-18T10:53:13 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Cards take third baseman Cox at No. 25
Arkansas product can be 'fast mover' through Minors
ST. LOUIS -- The first clue about Zack Cox came when Jeff Luhnow, the Cardinals' vice president of scouting and player development, called him a "baseball rat." The second may have been when Cox addressed every media questioner as "sir" during his conference call with reporters on Monday night.
The Cardinals took a very talented baseball player with their first pick in the 2010 First-Year Player Draft, but they also selected a young man who scores high on what scouts call "makeup." The skill on the field is obviously the most important thing, and he's got it in spades. But the club also likes his no-nonsense attitude.
"He's got a tremendous swing," Luhnow said. "He's a baseball guy. He's been a baseball rat his entire life. He puts everything he has into the game, and it shows. He hit well over .400 this year in good competition. He hit well over .300 [in the Cape Cod League] this summer. This kid is going to probably be a fast mover through the Minor Leagues, because his bat is pretty close to being Major League-ready. We've seen him hit with wood. We've seen him hit with aluminum. We've seen him hit good pitching. He can hit a breaking ball. He can hit a fastball. There's not a lot this guy can't do with the bat."
It was the second straight year that the Cardinals pounced on a highly rated player who fell in the Draft. Cox, the third baseman for the University of Arkansas, is rated as potentially the best college hitter in the Draft, and MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo projected Cox to go seventh overall in his last mock Draft. Though Cox's status as a Draft-eligible sophomore gives him considerable negotiating leverage, The Cardinals are optimistic they will be able to get a deal done before the Aug. 16 deadline.
2010 top picks
St. Louis also had two supplemental first-round selections on Monday, taking Arizona State right-hander Seth Blair with the 46th selection and Texas high school righty Tyrell Jenkins at No. 50 overall.
Cox, though, wants no part of talking contract. His team is two wins away from the College World Series after advancing to the super regional round of the NCAA tournament on Monday night.
"As far as signability goes, I'm really just focused on winning the national championship, and we can discuss all that later," he said. "I feel honored to be drafted by the Cardinals. It's awesome. But right now I just want to focus on the national championship and we can discuss signability later."
Said Luhnow: "Our sense is that Zack wants to sign. He wants to play baseball, and I think he sees his career moving fairly quickly in getting here, which is what we see for him as well. And I think he wants to sign and we want to sign him."
A left-handed hitter, Cox entered his Monday night game hitting .424 with a .603 slugging percentage through 56 games. He's been dealing with discomfort in his rib-cage area since mid-May, and he was removed from Monday's game as a result of the condition. But Luhnow said that Cox was cleared medically, and Cox downplayed the condition.
"It's nothing serious," he said. "It just needs time to heal, but obviously I don't have time to give it right now. We're in the middle of tournament time. But it's nothing serious. It could be healed in two weeks, but I don't have two weeks to give it, so I'm just going to have to play through it the best I can."
Though Cox, 21, has played second base and third base at Arkansas, the Cardinals project him as a third baseman all the way. They believe that both defensively and offensively, he can be a productive big league player at the hot corner. He said he prefers third base, but one doesn't get the feeling that he's all that picky about it.
Cox entered Monday's game with nine home runs, 11 doubles, 48 RBIs, 34 walks and 34 strikeouts. He's also stolen 11 bases in 12 attempts, all while playing in one of the toughest conferences in college baseball. Baseball America rated him as the sixth-best player in the Draft and the best college position player.
He's made a point not to let that go to his head.
"It just means my hard work has paid off," Cox said of the accolades, "and it means I need to get out there and prove all those people right -- and prove all the people who don't think that wrong."
It's the second time in three years that the Cardinals drafted a college hitter with their first pick. It's also the second straight year that a player rated much higher by some analysts fell to the Cardinals' spot in the Draft.
After years of being known as a team that leaned heavily toward college pitchers at the top of the Draft, St. Louis has changed that trend in recent years. A year ago, the Cardinals selected right-hander Shelby Miller, a hard-throwing high school pitcher from Texas. In the past four years, they've made one first pick from each of the four broad categories: Before Miller, they took college infielder Brett Wallace in 2008, high school infielder Pete Kozma in 2007 and college pitcher Adam Ottavino in '06.

LOS ANGELES -- Time is running out for Dodgers Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier to be voted into the National League starting outfield for the 2011 All-Star Game. Voting ends on Thursday.
Kemp and Ethier remained fourth and fifth, respectively, in the latest NL outfield voting totals, released by Major League Baseball on Monday. Ryan Braun of Milwaukee and Lance Berkman of St. Louis rank first and second, respectively. Matt Holliday of the Cardinals is third, fewer than 200,000 votes ahead of Kemp, with Ethier almost another 500,000 votes behind Kemp.
Fans can cast their votes for starters up to 25 times at MLB.com and all 30 club sites -- online or via your mobile device -- using the 2011 All-Star Game MLB.com Ballot Sponsored by Sprint until Thursday at 8:59 p.m. PT..
As has been the case throughout the voting, Kemp and Ethier are the only Dodgers in contention for a starting berth. Ethier spent most of the voting period ahead of Kemp, who overtook his teammate last week.
Ethier started his first All-Star Game last year. This would be Kemp's first All-Star appearance.
Kemp entered Monday leading the team in the Triple Crown categories of average, home runs and RBIs, as well as stolen bases (21). Over the course of a full season, only two other Dodgers -- Babe Herman and Willie Davis -- have done that.

While on guard duty up on the border a couple of days ago, we got to see some amazing weather and the first spring migrating birds of the year. During the night we were awed by almost continuous lightning, and brief but intense hailstorms. The hailstones ranged from rain drop sized to a half inch in diameter. After sunrise, while patrolling the fence, I saw several great grey shrikes of the pallidirostris subspecies (with the pale beak, whitish lores and lots of white in the wings), some desert wheatears, a stonechat, and a few barn swallows.
While watching the gerbils, I wondered if perhaps one reason why they keep enlarging their burrows is so they don't get drowned by rainstorms. The sand that the gerbils were ejecting from the burrow entrances was wet at first, and then dry. It would make sense that when it rains really hard small burrows get flooded much more easily than large ones, and when they start to flood the gerbils can keep throwing out wet sand. Also, the sand here tends to turn into a hard, almost waterproof crust over time. If the gerbils keep digging, they'd keep fresh, water-absorbant sand exposed at all times. | http://lostfrenchman.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html | 2013-05-18T10:11:49 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Brandy Talks New Album ‘Two Eleven’ and Acting With Vibe Vixen
Brandy has been on cloud 9 since the release of her latest album Two Eleven which hit stores on October 17th.
Besides touring across the country and taking time out to pose with the First Lady of the United States of America, Michelle Obama, Brandy recently posed for Vibe Vixen and talked with them about the release of her new album, returning to television, how Whitney’s death still affects her and what this album should mean to her fans.
Excerpt from Vibe Vix..

Central Scouting Releases Final List
This is Tyler Seguin. There’s every chance this young man will be an Oiler at the Entry Draft this summer. The latest Central Scouting ratings have the kid from Brampton ranked #1 (ahead of the kid from Kingston, Taylor Hall) and his wide range of skills make him an attractive prospect for first slot overall.
Gare Joyce told us in his Heartbreak book that NHL teams pay no real attention to the final CSB list. Reason? They’ve made their own lists and (unlike earlier editions of the Central list) these clubs have scouted the players and discarded some while elevating others. I have been told that the average fan would be surprised at how many quality prospects don’t make the final cut for some NHL team lists for one reason or another. Sometimes it is their place of birth (Russia is going through a bad period because of signability issues) and other times it has to do with size (Jordan Weal is quite small) and still other times there are organizational biases at work (in listening to Bob Stauffer lately I get the feeling the Oilers will avoid college wingers).
I don’t think there’s much to be learned from the Central Scouting List. Bob McKenzie has a glance at it here and his new top 10 next week will be a more interesting read. Redline Report should have something up soon and beginning on Monday I’ll be starting my Oilers 09-10 in review (by player). There will also be some more draft stuff sprinkled throughout April.

The violas were glorious in their tender second subject in the Andante, and because of Haitink’s unerring sense of proportion, in preference to suggesting continuing progress even in this ‘processional’ movement, the glorious climax and its wind-down into the soft steady drumbeats of the coda was as powerful and expressive as you could ever have prayed for.

Honorable Virginia M. Kendall
Judge, Northern District of Illinois
Judge Kendall was appointed to the federal bench in January 2006. Prior to her appointment she worked at the United States Attorney‘s Office in Chicago for over ten years where she served as Deputy Chief in the Criminal Division, Child Exploitation Coordinator, and Coordinator of Project Safe Neighborhoods. Prior to working with the United States Attorney‘s Office, Judge Kendall clerked for Hon. George Marovich in the Northern District of Illinois. She currently serves on the Codes of Conduct
Committee for the federal judiciary, the Seventh Circuit‘s Civil Jury Instruction Committee, and has sat with both the Seventh Circuit and the Federal Circuit Courts of Appeal as a visiting judge.
Judge Kendall has been an adjunct professor at Loyola University School of Law for the past sixteen years and an adjunct professor of law at Northwestern University Law School for the past five years. She has published law journal articles on a variety of topics including child molestation statutes, human trafficking and community reform projects. She currently lectures extensively in the areas of electronic discovery, internet and computer investigations, intellectual property case management, ethics, and victims‘ rights. She has traveled to Nairobi, Kenya where she has trained investigators, trial attorneys, and judges how to effectively use the recently-enacted Kenyan public corruption laws and sexual offense laws. She has lectured at Cornell University on human trafficking as part of the Avon Global Center for Women and Justice, served as a delegate to the Vital Voices Global Partnership to End Violence Against Women international summit, and spoken at the Inaugural Conference of the Avon Global Center‘s Symposium on Post Conflict Violence Against Women. She has traveled to Zambia to teach judges there about crimes against women and will travel later this year to continue her training on anti-human trafficking laws and procedures through the State Department and Lawyers without Borders.
As a trial attorney, Judge Kendall tried a variety of federal jury trials involving white collar fraud, insurance fraud, police corruption, public corruption, child molestation and racketeering. While a federal prosecutor, she served on the United States’ Attorney General’s National Advisory Committee responsible for reviewing all nationwide child exploitation investigations and coordinated the federal program Project Safe Neighborhoods designed to reduce gun violence within the city of Chicago.
Judge Kendall has participated in a number of service projects that support high school students, including moderating service trips to Peru, establishing trial training programs in both Chicago Public Schools and the federal courts, and developing awareness and support programs to curb gun violence and aid offender re-entry into the community. She opens her courtroom regularly to students from around the Chicago area where she enjoys teaching them about the judicial system. She tutors inner-city students after hours and continues to make public presentations to encourage professionalism in the field and to support underprivileged children who seek to gain a legal education. She was awarded the Chicago Crime Commission‘s Star of Distinction Award for her work in law enforcement, Loyola University Law School‘s Robert Bellarmine Award for her distinguished legal and service contributions to the community, the Rape Victim Advocates Visionary Award in recognition of her work on behalf of survivors of sexual assault and abuse, and DePaul University School of Law‘s Women and Gender Right’s Leadership Award. | http://luc.edu/chrc/honorablevirginiamkendall/ | 2013-05-18T10:12:12 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
They are headed for a severe constitutional crisis.
Does anyone else think this dingbat is dangerous ? ValJar is worse, but she doesn´t come out for air often.
There´s a race to the top among liberals to see who the biggest nut job is. This is totally irresponsible for a high ranking member of congress to say.Do these people really take an oath to uphold the Constitution?This other idea they´re working on to mint two platinum dollars and declare their value a trillion each is also absurd.Maybe ´m just jealous because I can´t go to strip clubs,take free cash out of ATMs and stuff dollar bills down a strippers drawers.
What a dingbat!! Barky doesn´t want to work with congress on anything. It´s his way, or the highway.
The 14th Amd talks about public debt. Here´s the words:The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurrent for payment of penions pinhead Nancy, how does this fit your messiah signing an E.O.?
Since when does Zippy need any urging to implement dictator-type action?
All barking at the moon, not even close on this one.Not one serious Constitutional expert in the country would deny that the House (Boehner) has control of debt ceiling increase.If obama was a fat white guy (POTUS) he would have been impeached quite a while ago.
Just give me another credit card and everything will be okay.
Democrats like the Constitution only when it works for them. Otherwise they wipe their butts on it daily.
Don´t forget, these are the same people that talk about things like "forgiving mortgages" as if that would really stabilize things.Nancy is a very wacky woman.
#5--I´m guessing the 14th Amendment was voted into law to cancel Confederate States of America war debt.In Queen Nancy´s World, ´insurrection and rebellion´ are direct links to debt ceilings tied to spending cuts. Say what?This is your brain on Botox.
She should have shut up after her first three words.... (I don´t think)
Utter and complete moron. Yeah, let´s see what that does to our credit rating and cost of borrowing...
Adding to #5, Nowhere in the 14th amendment is the President given the power to arbitrarily raise the debt limit. It does give him the authority to ensure debt service is made.#11, you are correct. It was to assure those nations that had sided with the union in the "Late Unpleasantness" (aka the War of Northern Aggression) that their debts would be made good and at the same time telling those that backed the confederate states to, politely put, shove it.
IF?, we had a speaker of the House with stones, we could yawn this off. However, two grains of sand probably ain´t gonna hack it. | http://lucianne.com/thread/?artnum=717909 | 2013-05-18T11:04:18 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
The media is what it is, in a political sense. Being able to selectively filter the news is a powerful tool. Unfortunately,the republican party seems unable or unwilling to counter the MSM´s message.
aside from the NFL does anyone watch this network?
Then what, little Dickerson?
CBS = Constant Bull S%&(Unwatched by thinking Americans like me.
John Dickerson is a sick puppy. journalette who covered Kennedy and was LBJ´s "favorite reporter", Nancy Dickerson neglected her son. But it´s clear that he picked up her politics. And bias.
And then there´s this:Dickerson co-wrote a July 17, 2003, Time article, "A War on Wilson?", which attributed the leak of Valerie Plame´s CIA identity to senior Bush administration officials. Writing for Slate in February 2006 ("Where´s My Subpoena?"), Dickerson speculated about why Patrick Fitzgerald never called him as a grand jury witness for his "bit role" in the drama.[4] Turns out the extremely controversial Dickerson was wrong and Secretary of State Colin Powell´s henchmen were responsible for the leaks. Neither of them were questioned or indicted.and this:Some believe that the controversial Dickerson was rewarded for his attacks on Republicans and Hillary by landing the job of Director of News at CBS. On January 18, 2013, after the shootings of Congressman Gabby Gifford, where Dickerson and CBS claimed that Republican inflammatory rhetoric was a cause, he nevertheless urged President Obama to "go for the throat" against Republicans in his second term. Dickerson created a firestorm of protest from Independents and Republicans with his controversial and highly partisan and inflammatory comments but Dickerson has refused to apologize., consider the source.What will Condi Rice do at CBS with the likes of Dickerson?
In case no one has noticed, the (not so)Grand Old Party has already been pulverized and delegitimized -- and neutered.
Knowing this and then signing on with CBS tells us how grateful Condi is to the party. I´ll not watch her but then I never watch any networks.
This ntwk should have itslicense to broadcast revoked.
Whatever happened to just reporting the news?
Is this guy Condoleeza´s new boss?
Well, he´s right in sync with the lefty think tanks. Gee, I wonder if he ever talks to those people?
´Pulverize´Am I correct in recalling that this was one of the many news organizations so upset about harsh language by Sarah Palin and the Right? Couldn´t say "targeting" if I recall, but "pulverize", well that´s apparently fine and dandy.
I used to watch CBS for local news. I don´t even do that anymore. I´m sick of even the local news being slanted. | http://lucianne.com/thread/?artnum=719795&Page=1 | 2013-05-18T10:52:57 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Shes the beautiful mother of two and TV presenter but she does know how to let her hair down and have a good old drink!!
She was not looking her best as
his Morning co-host Phillip Schofield downed a whole litre of Agave tequila during a boozy appearance on Alan Carr’s Chatty Man show.
After finishing off the bottle, Schofield – a known practical joker – posted a photo of his friend apparently passed out on a dining table.
He tweeted along with the photo:
‘This was the end.’ However, Holly’s pose appeared to have been set up for the camera to make for a hilarious picture to share with fans.
Holly mad sure that people know that she had not really passed out as she said:
‘For the record… That tequila pic was a joke?… But I did eat a few of the crisps!’
Haha that Phillip is a little joker isn’t her. | http://lukewilliamsgossip.wordpress.com/2012/05/11/holly-willoughby-passes-out-after-drinking-a-bottle-of-tequila-with-phillip-schofield/ | 2013-05-18T11:02:50 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

These are 2 frames I made for a reprint of a painting. The print is 12×18 and frames are 3.5 and 1.75 wide with biscuits in each corner. I cut the rabbit in the back on the table saw this time with dado blades instead of doing it on the router table. The dado was much easier and a cleaner cut. Then I decided to make a branding iron after work yesterday on the CNC mill since I finally decided on a logo. I made this out of brass and does quite nice with a propane torch. Got it done today just in time to burn it into these 2 frames I am giving away tonight. It would not heat up enough being a full inch thick , so I milled material off the back leaving a boss for the handle to thread into, leaving the top about 1/4” thick and now it heats up in a jiffy. I just need to practice the timing and temp now.

Great use of the blue pine on the frames, I like the way you used the contrast of the blue and whitewood to show off the picture. I like that brand you made, you might have yourself a new sideline, ifyou want it. To answer Sonny’s question, after a few hundred calves, it just comes naturally, all it takes is lots of practice. Thank you for sharing.

I still need to turn a decent wood handle, I just jammed a piece on last night to do thoses 2 frames. To get an even burn I slightly rock the brand from top to bottom , but I can only leave it on for 1-2 seconds, so it is kinda tricky. The flatter the wood is and having a flat brand will make it easier.

Nicely done frame, as the knots and bi-color wood really add a lot of character. Nice logo too. I had mine attached to the electric burner and it does take some time to heat up so I try to do multiple pieces at once. At least you’re burning onto a flat surface, as it’s really tricky when you do this on a cane shaft that’s rounded.

I wish I could help out, but I can’t profit off someone else’s machines. Branding irons are actually fairly easy to make if you have the equipment, but most woodworkers don’t have $150,000 laying around for a CNC mill. So I would if I could.

Hi All
I haven’t posted anything for a while as I’ve been very busy. This is a piece I have been working on and it will be on display at an exhibition in England from Friday.
It was inspired by the maiden voyage of the Titanic. The main box has some art deco inspired marquetry and consists of 3 levels representing the 3 classes on the ship. There are also three tugboat trinket boxes guiding her out.
Main box exterior french polished and tugboats sealed and waxed. Fitted with my neat hinges and my new neat screws. The neat screws allow for guaranteed slot alignment without the need to back screws of or tighten some up and with no damage to the screw slot – available soon along with a neat lock so keep an eye on my news page
Cheers

Ian,No way I can pass up an “Ian post”. And this one is no disappointment whatsoever! Lovely piece, in every aspect. The deco theme is carried through marvelously. The lock escutcheon appears to be polished brass… hhmmm, that is grounds for some thought. I like it. What is the inset in the underside of the lid? Brass also? Whatever, the effect is striking. Another great piece that earns my sincere admiration.Roger

New Mom Broccoli Kugel21 Reviews
- Prep: 10 min
- Cook: 1 hr 45 min

“This quick dairy-free broccoli casserole is a must at every event I host or attend. Based on the Jewish version of a crustless quiche (kugel), it utilizes basic ingredients and easy to put together before popping it into the oven. So easy, I could do it with a new baby in the house.” - by JerusaleMom

"I think the recipe as-is would only be a 3 1/2 stars. I rated this with 5 stars with my changes because the recipe was so easy and used a minimal amount of ingredients. I couldn't imagine cooking eg..." See moregs/quiche without cheese, so I added about 3/4 cup feta cheese, 1/2 cup parm cheese and garlic powder. also decreased to 1/2 onion since I was making more of a breakfast quiche. I also used 2 - 10 oz packages of chopped broccoli. SO Easy and the ingredients readily available in the kitchen. Will definitely make again! Only cooked for @60 minutes until golden brown."

"We tried this recipe last night because we happen to have these ingredients on hand along with a big bag of frozen broccoli. I made some changes to this recipe which made it a 5 star for me. I took ..." See morethe suggestions from StephD and added 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese and added 1/2 tsp. of garlic powder because I didn't have any cheddar cheese on hand and the parm cheese was the perfect flavor. It didn't need to bake for 90 min. but one hour was sufficient and I would recommend coating the baking dish heavily because the egg mixture will stick to the pan. I enjoyed this very much and so did my husband."

"So I looked at what other people were saying about this "new mom kugel". First off, the reason this kugel does not have cheese is because often times when we have "kugel" is when we are having a meal..." See more with meat. If you are Jewish, many people choose not to mix milk with meat. So I thought that the other adaptions and reviews were right on. First off, add the spice. I usually do a few shakes of black pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder and sweet paprika. I also added a 1/2 tsp on chicken soup mix powder. I also mixed 3 cloves fresh garlic to the onion saute. If you are making it dairy the parm cheese is a perfect addition or I would say cheddar would also work. Thank you for a great side dish!"

Tesco to Expand in India
London.”
Tesco said it would invest up to 60 million lbs. (USD$114 million) over two years to help develop its wholesale business.
"Based initially in Mumbai, the business will benefit from over a decade of experience of setting up local businesses in international markets," the company said.
Tesco also said that it was entering into an "exclusive franchise agreement" with Trent, the retail arm of Tata Group. Trent will pay a fee to Tesco in return for retail and technical support as the former aims to grow its number of Star Bazaar hypermarkets to 50 from four presently over the next five years.
"We are delighted to be working with Tata, one of India's largest and most respected business groups," Leahy added in the statement.
"Our agreement will enable us to share our international retail expertise, supporting Trent in the development of their Star Bazaar hypermarket business and benefiting Indian consumers." | http://m.chainstoreage.com/article/tesco-expand-india?device=mobile | 2013-05-18T10:24:32 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Take Care Clinics offering $39 physicals as spring training, summer camp approaches
CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa. –– Take Care Health Systems, which is owned by Walgreens, has announced that it now is offering sports and camp physicals for $39. The physicals, regularly $60, are available until October and administered by nurse practitioners and physician assistants.
“Camp and sports physicals present an important opportunity for families to meet with a trusted healthcare professional who can screen patients for undetected health conditions, identify children that may be at risk for injury or spark conversations about overall health and wellness,” stated Sandy Ryan, chief nurse practitioner officer for Take Care Health Systems. “These exams are also a convenient opportunity to check whether immunizations are up-to-date and administer them if need be. It’s all about helping ensure the overall health of a patient and the community, on the patient’s terms.”
Take Care Clinic nurse practitioners and physician assistants can administer appropriate immunizations for school-aged children, such as flu, Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis), Menactra (meningitis), Varicella (chicken pox), MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) and Gardasil (HPV). The company recommends that patients bring a copy of their vaccination record and medical history to the Take Care Clinic in preparation to receive a sports or camp physical or immunization.
While appointments are not required, they can now be scheduled through Take Care Clinic’s website, which also shows estimated wait times at each clinic for walk ins.
Sports and camp physicals at Take Care Clinics do not take the place of a child’s yearly health exam and complete developmental assessment. Take Care Health professionals encourage all patients to have a primary care provider or pediatrician who can facilitate this relationship. Patients without a primary care provider will be referred to one for further evaluation and treatment as needed. Visit records will be shared with a patient’s provider if requested, and all patients will be given a copy of their visit record to share with other providers.
High school and middle school level, pre-participation sports physicals are not available at Take Care Clinics in Kansas.

RALEIGH, N.C. -- Blake Wheeler helped the Winnipeg Jets get a win while their thoughts were with their injured teammate.
Wheeler scored his second goal of the game with 4:54 remaining to lift the Winnipeg Jets to a 4-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday.
Earlier in the day, Jets rookie defenseman Zach Redmond had surgery to repair a laceration to an artery in his right leg after a teammate accidentally stepped on him during the club's morning skate.
"You can't really put it into words what goes through your mind when a teammate is hurt like that on the ice," Wheeler said. "I think all you can really do is just try to channel those emotions into going out and putting your best foot forward and trying to win for one of your teammates."
Wheeler scored his go-ahead goal by speeding in on a partial breakaway after Carolina defenseman Joe Corvo slipped near the blue line and beat goalie Cam Ward. Wheeler's goal concluded a stretch where the teams scored three goals in a span of 1:03 in the third period.
Jiri Tlusty scored twice for Carolina while Jordan Staal also scored for the Hurricanes, who have lost two in a row after a 5-0-1 streak..
"It was big just to find a way to win," Wheeler said. "It wasn't necessarily our 'A' game. ... That's the way you get the job done in this league. You've got to find a way to win when you don't have your best game."
Redmond.
"It was just a really bad feeling seeing a teammate in pain and sitting on the ice like that," Ladd said. "It's not something you ever want to see."
Ladd had given Winnipeg a 3-2 lead at 14:03 of the third after Ward failed to snag a floating puck and then whiffed on an attempt to clear it from the front of the net.
Tlusty answered 47 seconds later on a quick shot from the slot. Wheeler's go-ahead goal came 16 seconds after Tlusty.
"I'm sure he's going to look at a couple of them and probably feels like he had an opportunity to make a couple more saves there," Carolina coach Kirk Muller said of Ward.lusty,).

Nash, who has experience playing alongside All-Stars like Dirk Nowitzki in Dallas and Amare Stoudemire in Phoenix while sharing the spotlight, said that Bryant is the rightful choice as the person who controls the team.
"I think this is Kobe's team," Nash said. "For the media's perspective, this is Kobe's. This is undoubtedly Kobe's team. He's been here his whole career. He's won championships. And he's the best player on the team. We got to be there for him every day, so it's essentially our team as well."."
Bryant, while still holding on to his role as the team spokesman, is certainly receptive to being a receiver and leaving the QB duties to someone else this season. | http://m.espn.go.com/wireless/story?storyId=8450210&city=losangeles | 2013-05-18T11:02:20 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Adapted from The New Jewish Table by Ellen Kassoff Gray and Todd Gray
Todd: Roasting really rounds out the natural sweetness of eggplant, whose seeds have a caviar-like appearance and texture, in my opinion. This purée with roasted garlic and lemon juice is like baba ghanouj, but without the tahini. It's just so simple and fresh—a perfect spring starter.
Ingredients
3 medium eggplants2 tablespoons good quality olive oil3 garlic cloves, roasted or fresh and not peeled1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice1 teaspoon ground cumin1/2 teaspoon salt1⁄8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepperPita breadsGround smoked paprika for dusting pitas
Directions
Roast the eggplants. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Pierce each eggplant in several places (use a fork or skewer) and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle the eggplants with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Roast until the skins are blistered and the flesh is soft—about 60 minutes. (If your garlic is not already roasted, add it to the oven during the last 20 minutes of baking time.) Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and let the eggplants cool for 20 minutes. Keep the oven on.
Make the dip. Cut the eggplants in half and scoop out the flesh from the skins. Transfer to the container of a food processor fitted with a blade and process until smooth. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the garlic, lemon juice, cumin, salt, and pepper and pulse to combine.
Makes about 4 cups dip
Make pita chips. Cut the pitas into wedges. Arrange on a baking sheet and place in the oven until lightly toasted, golden, and crispy—15 to 20 minutes. Lightly sprinkle the pitas with the smoked paprika.

The 15 best DAW software apps in the world today
10th Oct 2012 | 10:00
Apple GarageBand
As many of you have pointed out, it’s not credible for us to say that one DAW is better than all the others. There are loads of great music production applications on the market for PC and Mac, all of which have their strengths and weaknesses and function in slightly different ways.
What we have done, though, is ask, once again, MusicRadar’s users to vote for their favourite DAW so that we can build up a picture of which music making packages are currently the most popular. The following countdown is based on your votes in our 2012 poll: you might not agree with the order or the winner, but what we can say with some confidence is that, if you can’t make decent music with at least one of these products, the fault certainly doesn’t lie with the software.
Our list is an updated version of the one that we published in 2012, and kicks off with Apple’s GarageBand.
You’ll have to search long and hard to find a more beginner-friendly DAW than this one, which ships with all new Macs and can now be bought on its own for the ridiculously low price of £8.99 via the Mac App Store. Non-musicians can simply sequence the supplied audio loops, but a decent collection of software instruments comes included too, as does multitrack recording functionality and a good selection of virtual guitar amps and stompboxes.
GarageBand ’11 adds more of these, plus Logic’s Flex Time and Groove Matching technology. Enhancements have also been made to the software’s Learn To Play features: this is the only DAW that can teach you to play guitar or piano.

A Mac running Logic is almost an expected find when you head into a professional musician’s studio - it’s a supremely elegant music production solution that just works.
Apple might not update the software quite as regularly as some other developers, but it already contains everything you need to put together a complete track, and when new features are added, the majority of them feel so well-thought-out that you quickly wonder how you ever got by without them. What's more, the software is now available for a ridiculously cheap price.

The denial of an opportunity to challenge the President's decision on the mercy petition was more likely to have affected Guru's fate for, unlike Kasab, he was not present at the crime scene when Parliament was attacked and he did not himself kill anybody.
In fact, after Kehar Singh's execution in the Indira Gandhi case, Guru was the only conspirator to have ever been hanged in connection with any high-profile crime. The three conspirators in the Rajiv Gandhi case, although awarded death penalty earlier than Guru, have so far been spared the noose because of a stay from the Madras high court on their execution. The stay came in 2011 on their plea that the death penalty be commuted to life sentence as the President had rejected their mercy petitions after an "inordinate and unexplained" delay.
Had he and his counsel been similarly given an advance notice of the rejection of his mercy petition, Guru too could have exercised his right to challenge the President's decision on the ground of delay, as he had filed his plea more than seven years ago.
Besides, Guru was better placed than Kasab to seek clemency on procedural and substantive grounds. Thanks to his oft-quoted grievance that he did not get a counsel of his choice during the trial, there has been much debate in legal and human rights circles on whether Guru had been given a fair trial.
Another controversial aspect of Guru's conviction is that successive courts had allegedly glossed over his claim that, as a surrendered militant, he had provided logistical support for the attack on Parliament on the instructions of security agencies in Kashmir.
The dilution of due process was also evident from the government's failure to comply with the stipulation of the jail manual to inform Guru's family about the date of the execution. The compromise is more evident in Guru's case because, unlike Kasab, his family members are Indians, who live in Kashmir. The rationale behind this stipulation is to provide the convict a chance to meet his family members for the last time.
In Kasab's case, the government claimed to have sent a communication to Pakistan to inform his family before his hanging. Despite the government's claim to have done the same in Guru's case, his family was in fact delivered with a fait accomppli.
This is the third mercy petition to have been rejected by President Pranab Mukherjee. Saibanna's case highlighted the deviation made in the cases of Kasab and Guru. For, the rejection of Saibanna's plea was made public, giving him scope to challenge it as also to meet his relatives. | http://m.timesofindia.com/india/Conspiracy-theory-Was-due-process-flouted-to-deny-Afzal-Guru-a-bid-to-escape-hangman/articleshow/18425330.cms | 2013-05-18T10:21:59 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Fenerbahçe sanctions announced
The UEFA Control and Disciplinary Body has handed down sanctions to Fenerbahçe SK following incidents at their UEFA Europa League match against VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach on 6 December 2012. The club were charged with the throwing of missiles and/or fireworks by their supporters and with insufficient organisation.
The Turkish team have been ordered to play their next UEFA Europa League home game behind closed doors. This applies to their round of 32 second-leg fixture against FC BATE Borisov on 21 February.
The UEFA Control and Disciplinary has decided to revoke the suspended sanction against Fenerbahçe of playing one UEFA club competition match behind closed doors following a previous disciplinary decision of 18 October after similar incidents occurred at their game against FC Spartak Moskva on 29 August 2012.
The Turkish team have also been fined €40,000.
An appeal may be lodged against this decision within three days of the dispatch of the reasoned decision. | http://m.uefa.com/news/1913731/ | 2013-05-18T10:52:41 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Hi,
I had to open the port TCP/1723 (PPTP control port) in monowall for
PPTP, this was not necessary with the 1.11 version but the 1.2 version
needs it.

JM

$30 for a Netgear WG602v3 won in my last search. I find their signal
quality better thatn the Linksys units I've used. I've a few in place
that have never been rebooted since being installed in April. I do wish
it had WPA-RADIUS support though but we're not there yet.
One note, I'd avoid picking up a router/ap combo unit (sometimes they're
actually cheaper) if you are just going to use the AP part. At least with
the Linksys combo units I've dealt with, disabling IGMP and some other
noise isn't possible. My mono logs were jammed with firewall messages
about blocked traffic from these units.
$0.02.

Currently BrowsingWeekly Poll!
Apple’s retail operation has been a huge success for the company, with over 300 stores worldwide, across 11 different countries. Rather than a dry retail experience, everything in an Apple Store is carefully thought about—right down to the type of wood used for the counters.
The model of “Come to shop. Return to learn.” works well, instilling a sense of creativity and education into an otherwise very commercial experience. Although the primary aim of an Apple store is obviously to sell Apple products, the commitment to having creative specialists and dedicated trainers is something rarely found elsewhere.
I have a couple of Apple Stores close by in Manchester, but have been finding that over the years they are becoming far more crowded, all the time. What used to be a fantastic browsing experience is now akin to fighting your way to the front of a packed concert venue.
Are you finding the same thing? And how often do you visit an Apple Store nearby? I’d be interested to know whether you still find it a great place to check out the latest Apple gadgets, or if the ever-increasing crowds make visiting more of a necessity than a pleasure.. | http://mac.appstorm.net/category/general/weekly-poll/page/13/ | 2013-05-18T10:22:21 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

(since the loot is listed in the App Store description, I'll be open about it)
When I tried (on Steam) to register the Puzzle Agent product key provided in the vault, it said "Duplicate Product Code". I noticed that some time last year the same issue occurred for the first loot. Could it be the same problem?
BTW, product key for World of Goo is working fine.
Thanks!
Alvin
Quick question: is there something you need to do other than clear 100% to get Puzzle Agent? Not sure if I'm in the first 25k or not for World of Goo, but only Eets is showing up in my vault and I have received no emails.
edit: Nevermind. It finally worked. For some reason I had to trigger the night owl achievement again, then Sophia called and then I was able to do what I had tried to do previously.
orange is my favorite color...
World of Goo worked for me. Puzzle Agent is giving me the error. It figures, since it seems like a really fun game.
Orange! Orange? Orange doesn't rhyme with anything!

Good morning Mack,
Have been reading a piece on Colin McHugh. You wrote to me yesterday that you expect him in the pen on opening day. Toby Hyde had an article on McHugh.
Any thoughts on this article? If true why put him in the pen? You could argue that perhaps Dillon Gee can be traded as kind of proven starter. Wouldn't that get more then a prospect?
Mack:
I don't remember what I wrote, but I don't expect Gee to be in the pen come opening day 2013. The rotation is right now set with Santana-Dickey-Niese-Harvey-Gee and I only see a change if someone is traded.
Now, I do believe that Gee might lose his job come the all-start break, especially if Dickey isn't traded. Zack Wheeler is projected to join the rotation and someone has to go.
I have no thoughts on whether McHugh is a better pitcher than Gee. I will say that Gee has done very little to warrant losing his job to anyone other than Wheeler. His stats rank with the best SP5s in the game.
We're less than 12 months away from some kind of pitching logjam that has to result in some trades.
2 comments:
Gee is a great pitcher who is getting better and better. He hasn't reached his peak yet, I believe, and by the all star break the mets may be able to get somebody's top prospect for him. They just have to let it play out.
McHugh is a guessing game at this point and honestly, when Gee first came up, he never got hit as hard or consistently as McHugh has. Gee is going to be a number 3 one day, is McHugh? That's years away at this point and by then, Montero and Fulmer will be ahead of him.
Yeah, I never read the Hyde article and I have no idea why he would say something like that.
I try and avoid (the 'new Mack') making comparisons of Mets, especially pitchers that are already successful.
I don't have the stats but I think the average ERA for an SP5 is over 4.50. Gee is doing just fine.
Now, McHugh has pitched well, but not on a major league level and he really looked a little lost out there last year. He needs a trade because Wheeler is next up, followed possibly by Pelfrey, Gorski, and then Montero in late 2015. | http://macksmets.blogspot.com/2012/11/q-and-mchugh-vs-gee.html | 2013-05-18T10:41:22 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

The holiday season is right around the corner. That means cocktail parties, cocktail dresses, and of course, the classic LBD. What that also means is you’ll need to gain the will power to "just say no" to your pants with the elastic waistband this Thanksgiving and in the weeks that follow. Here are few simple, easy-to-follow tips to enjoy your holiday eating and imbibing without the guilt.
Exercise in the morning
Plan a hike with your family and/or visiting guests, join a local group bike ride, or check out local fitness facilities that offer special Thanksgiving or other morning classes. On Turkey Day, check to see if your hometown holds a Turkey Trot or another fun 5k or 10k race on Thanksgiving morning. Many of these races exist around the country and most of the proceeds benefit food banks and local charities trying to feed the hungry.
Including physical activity on the mornings of the most gluttonous season of the year means you will be able to increase your metabolism for the day and will likely make better food choices when at the dinner table. If you decide to indulge in an extra slice of pie or glass of wine, at least you’ve burned a few calories first!
Maintain your workout schedule
Company, club, and family parties may interfere with your regular workout schedule. Checking your weekly schedule at the beginning of each week is a good practice to keep, and even more so during this time of holiday commitments. When holiday parties interfere with your workouts, reschedule your workout at a different time. Don't skip your workouts, even if it means abbreviating them. Squeezing in 15-20 minutes will still provide you more benefits than not doing anything at all.
Don’t skip breakfast
In order to prevent guilt-ridden overeating and letting out the waistband on your trousers, eat breakfast. Do not skip meals earlier in the day. Prepare healthy meals or snacks before your dinner to avoid feeling famished, which can result in overeating.
Use smaller plates
I know... you are already dreaming about plates laden with Thanksgiving goodies. But if you want to keep your summer shape, you will have to serve yourself smaller portions all winter long. Serve yourself 1/3-1/2 of what you would normally put on your plate. If you opt for a second serving you should still serve yourself a smaller portion. With this approach you will consume at least half the calories of holidays-past.
Practice conscious consumption
Rather than eating mindlessly while deep in conversation, look at what you stick your fork into before putting it in your mouth. Enjoy the flavors while savoring the food as you chew slowly. You will be less likely to eat the food that is not as satisfying to you, become satiated faster, eat more slowly (which means you will have less time to go up for seconds), and enjoy the taste of your meal at the first plate.
Enjoy this holiday season! And if you follow these tips, you'll be able to do it while staying the same size into the New Year's Eve party. Read: you won't be one of those frantic weight loss fanatics fighting over the treadmill at the gym, madly trying to lose the nine pounds gained over the course of the five weeks of winter holiday festivities. Instead, you’ll look stunning and chic as you ring in 2013.! ;-)
The thought of donning your bathing suit this summer is taunting you…You know it’s time to ramp up those workouts. But it’s spring. That means if you go out for that awesome workout, you’ll spend the rest of the day sniffling, sneezing, and figuring out how to keep your makeup from running with your teary eyes. Ugh, allergies!
Rather than dismiss physical activity through the months of spring and admit bitter defeat against your summer wardrobe, try some other options:
1. If you have a gym membership, use it. If not, it might be time to invest in one.
2. Check out those workout videos in the sale section at Target or at the library. You can even find them online.
3. Still like hoofing in the open air? Commit to early morning workouts when the pollen count is low and other nasal irritants have not yet been stirred up.
4. Avoid outdoor workouts on windy days and the day after.
After being outdoors, wash away lingering irritants. Immediately wash the clothes that you had been wearing, wash your face, and shower. Saline washes for your eyes and nasal passages (yes, like a neti pot) also help make allergies less annoying.
During allergy season, consider adding more foods high in omega-3 fatty acids to your diet, like salmon and halibut, flaxseed oil, or walnuts. Omega-3s aid your body with suppressing the inflammatory responses to allergens that cause teary eyes and runny noses.
Don’t play victim to this season’s wind and pollen count, while prepping for the warmer summer months. You can make adjustments to your workout routine and join the swimsuit-clad population on the beach—or anywhere else, if you choose—very soon.

Having a nice butt is important. Even if yours isn’t insured for $27 million bucks and you didn’t create a new word for it, I’m sure you still do the over-the-shoulder butt check. I know I do. No one wants something too flat or lumpy in the back for obvious reasons (ahem, boys...); but your rear should be in good shape for optimal health/fitness as well.
The muscles in your rear end stabilize your legs while you walk and run. They are also integral parts of your body’s powerhouse, called your core. You know, the part of your mid-section that most people think is another word for abs. Well, your core—your powerhouse—includes the whole structure of your body (yes, it’s a structure), from your shoulder girdle down to the bottom of your pelvis. That means -- say it with me, folks -- your butt is part of your powerhouse. Not only does a strong one look good in your clothes and stabilize your lower half, it helps you jump higher and leap further. Why not work it?
Need some ideas? I just happen to have some for you. Here are four of my favorite exercises to get that tush tight.
Quadruped hip extension
This is a great everyday exercise that you may do at home. Begin on all fours, with your shoulders over your hands and hips over your knees. Draw your ribs down and tuck your tailbone under to flatten your back, creating a table-top position. Squeeze your hind cheeks and keep your stomach drawn in, as you extend one leg back, allowing your foot to come up to hip height. To make sure you are doing this one right, place a dowel along your spine and balance it there as you do this exercise, and alternate your extending leg.
Seat hover
You can do this one at your desk. Before sitting in your seat, let your bottom hover over your seat pan a couple of inches. Be sure to tuck your tailbone under you and clench your glutes. Keep your shoulders drawn back to keep your back flat. When you can’t stand it anymore, stand straight up by squeezing those burning glutes.
Lunge
You thought you knew’em…Here’s how to do them and make them count. Take a long step forward, so that you are in a long stride position. Lean your chest forward, while keeping your back flat (you want your back to appear to form a straight line from the crown of your head down to the heel of the foot that is behind you). Your chest will line up with the middle of the thigh that is in front of you. Keeping your hips square (as if parallel to a wall in front of you) and squeezing your glutes, slowly lower your back knee toward the floor. Hold that position for a few seconds, while you feel a little heat in your working muscles. You want to feel like you could pounce forward by jumping off your lead leg. Slowly straighten your legs, returning you to ready position. Repeat as many as you are able to with good form, then switch sides.
Side leg lift
I like this one, as well, because I can multi-task while I do it—while washing dishes, brushing my teeth, folding laundry... While balancing on one leg, which stays slightly bent, raise the non-supporting leg straight out to the side of your body, angling slightly back. Keep your hips directly below your shoulders. Guess what? Squeeze your tush! And, as you do that, slowly raise the angled leg up. Lower and repeat ten to fifteen times, and repeat on your other side.
Within a few weeks of working on these simple four exercises, a few times each week, you will start to notice a lift in your hindquarters region. Print out this page and keep it with you so that you can get working on your new million dollar butt!
We
all have those days when nothing seems to go right: couldn’t find your
keys, stuck in traffic, missed a deadline, spilled coffee on your white
blouse… Sometimes the weight of what goes wrong just makes you feel low.
All you feel like doing on those days is crawling back in bed and
hoping that tomorrow is better. Guess what? You don’t have to resign to
your bed to reboot your day. You have the power within your own body to
turn your day around.
If you’ve been doing it, then you already know it. It really isn’t a secret that after you work out, you no longer feel like you need to kick and scream, self-medicate, or drown sorrows in the bottom of a bucket of Ben & Jerry’s and a bag of salt and pepper Kettle Chips… then fall asleep amongst the crumbs of your guilt. Instead you can hop on the treadmill and run, leaving your troubles behind.
There’s some science behind why exercise has the same effects of chemically-induced highs and fatty food-elicited comfort. Morphine, codeine, oxycodone, heroin, and other opiates are synthesized (or partially manufactured) chemicals that create artificial endorphins in the body. Endorphins are hormones, created and released by our own bodies during exercise, excitement, pain (it alleviates the pain and helps us endure it), consumption of spicy food, and sex.
Frankly, I think exercise and sex are the healthiest options for generating a natural high (the latter, only if it’s drama-free). You can exercise any time of day. So, rather than depend on pharmaceuticals, and to prevent morning-after (insert junk food option here) guilt, lace up your kicks and go for a run, hike, dance class, or other type of fun and exercise. That’s your natural high. You’re not letting a few mishaps lead you to where your day should end. That’s girl-power: to take charge of your body and your mood, and work it out until you are glowing with sweat and with happiness.

We all want them…MichelleObamaArms. I have been working on sculpting my arms since seeing Angela Basset in "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" (actually, I realized I wanted them since I saw her play Tina Turner in “What’s Love Got To Do With It”, but I was too young to hit the gym).
I hate to break it to you, but if it’s not in your genetic map, your arms will not magically chisel away and reveal perfectly shaped arms. But wait! There is hope. You will be able to firm those arms so that they are flauntable in your cute sleeveless top....with a little work.
Here are a few moves to get you there, strengthen your core, and stabilize your shoulders.
Hand Walks/Inchworms
This is a great full body warm-up exercise that also conditions your core, promotes hamstring and back flexibility, and strengthens your shoulder stabilizers.
Begin by standing with your feet hip-width apart. Holding your stomach in and gluts pinched, lower your hands toward the floor in front of your feet. If your hamstrings (the muscles in the back of your upper legs) are tight, bend your knees when you need to, in order to get your hands flat on the floor. Walk your hands out, as if going into push-up position, then walk your feet, using small steps, toward your hands. Repeat the hand walk-outs across the room and then reverse the order to go backwards as long as you can endure it.
GI Jane Push-Ups
Also known as yogi posh-ups or triceps push-ups, these push-ups are great to stabilize your core and emphasize greater triceps burn (the muscles in the back of your upper arms—yes, that spot).
Begin face down, with your shoulders over your hands and arms straight, pressing you up. If beginning the push-ups from your toes is too challenging, put your knees down and do the exercise from there. You may also modify by doing the push-ups, pressing away from your kitchen counter.
Here’s the move: lower your body in one single movement (hold your stomach in tight so your hips don’t drop as you lower) by bending your elbows while sliding them toward your waist; then, straighten your arms, pressing your body away from the floor (or counter if you started there. Continue holding your stomach in to prevent your butt from pressing up in the air before the rest of your body does). Your body should move in one plane.
Lateral Raise
This is a shoulder strengthening and sculpting exercise you can do in your kitchen, if not the gym.
Stand with your legs staggered, like a slight lunge position. Position yourself in a forward lean, bending at the hips so your back remains flat, and your chest lines up with your mid-thigh. Holding a light weight in each hand (you can even make weights with gallon jugs of water, adjusting the weight by varying the volume of water in the bottles) with straight arms, lift the weights on either side of you, to shoulder height. Lower and repeat. It’s almost like mimicking flapping wings, in super-slow motion. You should be able to perform about 10-12 repetitions and feel a good burn in your shoulders. If not, then you need heavier weights (or more liquid in your bottles).
Side Plank Push-Ups
This strengthens the same areas as the exercises above plus a bonus, as you get added strength and stability by adding dynamic movement to some classic exercises—the side plank and the push-up.
Your start position is push-up position (shoulders over your hands, and body holding steady in a line to your toes, or knees for the modification). Do one push-up, then rotate onto the right side of your feet (or knees if you are modifying this movement) while lifting your left hand off the floor and reaching it toward the sky, holding steady for a few seconds. Holding your navel in, lower your left hand back to the mat, returning to the ready position. Do another push-up and repeat the side plank on the left side. Repeat as many as you can with good form.
Bicep Curls
Now, you know some moves to chisel your shoulders and triceps. This one is for the fronts of your arms.
Use dumbbells if you have them. If not, grab those gallon jugs again. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, shoulders drawn back, and stomach in. Keep your elbows close to your waist, and curl the weight toward your shoulder. Repeat as many as you can with good form (that means, not swinging your body back and forth). You should feel fatigue in your biceps by 12 repetitions. If not, you’ll need heavier weights.
If you have never done anything for your arms before, you will notice that you feel stronger and firmer within a few weeks. For sculpting to really happen, (sorry to break this to you, too) you will have to combine the exercise with a healthy diet, where you eat good food and reduce your portion sizes. Keep at it, and you may be the next First Lady…OK, more realistically, you’ll be able to show off your arms in your cocktail dress. Have fun with it!
Since the beginning of time (well, maybe just since humans needed to figure out ways to be less sedentary and more entertained), people have explored different ways to be both active and amused. The popularity of pole and lap dancing fitness classes proves how adaptation of certain activities, formerly thought of unsavory by some, can go mainstream as acceptable group exercise classes. The underlying themes of all of these fitness programs is that workouts should be fun. People should look forward to, be motivated to go to, and want to go back to whatever activity they choose to help them get fit.
Since we all are amused by different activities, the list goes on when it comes to unique exercise programs. Once considered weird, some modes of fitness have become Olympic sports like trampolining. (Seeing people bouncing and doing tricks on a trampoline at the Olympics is fun, but I consider curling weird. Look it up.) Although, I don’t see group exercise activities, like cardio lap dance going to the Olympics, I think we can appreciate new and different attempts at making physical activity more entertaining. Let’s take a look at a few exceptional ways that some people are challenging their fitness.
By Land
Kangoo Jumps – Originally developed for physical rehabilitation for joggers and runners, these boots with the spring-like device for a sole, make Skechers Shape-Ups look wussy. I have to admit when I first saw a couple of joggers wearing them, I giggled to myself because they look silly—but fun. The fun factor and the capability to make high impact activity low impact has kept them around. There are group run, old-school, choreographed aerobics classes dedicated to these kangaroo shoes. Admit it, who doesn’t love to bounce?
Spy Workout – Do you admire the actors’ prowess in action flicks? There are whole workouts dedicated to get you shredded like Jason Bourne (OK, ladies, how about Angelina Jolie in Salt?). These classes usually consist of obstacle courses that require you to jump, flip, crawl, dip, pull-up, and swing over, under, and around various objects. Want to do it yourself? Check out the Parkour training stations at your local park ().
By Sea – Don’t try these at home, kids…
Rock Running – I first saw this on television almost 10 years ago, but it still amazes me. I’ve heard differing stories behind the origin of this exercise. One story is that it started as conditioning for clam divers, then surfers and swimmers adopted it to help with their own aerobic capacities. Regardless, grabbing a big heavy rock and sprinting across the water floor, completely submerged, can still be called unique.
Underwater Kettlebells – As if kettlebells on land weren’t enough of a challenge…Adrenalin and testosterone junkies have taken kettlebells to a whole new place. These cow-bell shaped weights already look like giant diver weights to me. There is a cult of fitness enthusiasts, rather fanatics, using kettlebells underwater in a Navy Seal-esque form of exercise. They use the weights to drop them down to the bottom of a shallow-ish area of water (shallow being relative—it looks like 15-20 feet to me), just to climb back up, perform other exercise half on land and half in the water, just to repeat it all again…fully dressed!
By Air
Jukari – Reebok teamed up with Cirque du Soleil to create this studio fitness class that is conceptualized around the circus trapeze. Each person gets her/his own swing. Throughout the class you get to swing, spin, fly, and hang your way to looking fly.
Anti-gravity yoga – So far, I have only seen this at Crunch Fitness. It looks like cocoon meets yoga. Ivory sheets of fabric suspend you inches off the studio floor to help you with various bends and poses without worrying that gravity will pull you down, crashing to the floor.
With so many unusual ways to get fit, there really aren’t too many excuses for you not to get up off the couch. If you can’t find something you like, make it up. Get fit and have fun! | http://madewomanmag.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=tag&tag=Exercise&Itemid=168 | 2013-05-18T10:40:34 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
World Premiere
How do we receive attention, and how do we give attention? What drives it, what distracts it, what dissolves it? In Watch It, Paris-based choreographer Liz Santoro returns to NYC with a work that asks what draws us to observe others, and what the answer to that question might say about us. Using the loading dock of the museum, this intimate performance gives to and takes from the audience, as it simultaneously proffers and demands attention.

Atmospherically, "She Done Him Wrong" is interesting since it takes the customers back to the '90.
The locale, the clothes and the types are interesting, and so is Miss West in her picture hats, straight jacket gowns and with so much jewelry that she looks like a Knickerbocker ice plant. But Miss West is chiefly interesting because she looks nice and youthful, and nice and thin.
Deletions in the script from its original 1928 legit form were few, with only the roughest of the rough stuff out. White slavery angle is thinly disguised, with the girls instead shipped to Frisco to pick pockets. Character titles are changed only slightly, such as from Lil to Lou, etc. The swan bed is in, but for a flash only, with Mae doing her stuff on the chaise lounge in this version. The closing boy friend, a Salvation Army fellow in the play, is just a Bowery missionary as rewritten. When Lou bumps off the villainous Rita (it's Rosie now) she still says, "I'm doing a job that I never did before."
Caster delivered some excellent types for the colorful support parts and the whole troupe is first rate as a whole. Numerous ex-vaudevillians besides Miss West in the cast, including Cary Grant, the soul-saver; Fuzzy Knight, who whips a piano, and Grace La Rue. The latter, who headlined when Miss West was chasing acrobats in the No. 2 spot, has a bit. Rafaella Ottiano, who does Rita, is a carry-over from the original legit cast.
With this strong line-up and others, including Gilbert Roland, Noah Beery, David Landau and Owen Moore as background, they're never permitted to be anything more than just background. Miss West gets all the lens gravy and full figure most of the time. When not flashing the ice and steaming up the bows, she sings "Easy Rider," "I Like a Man Who Takes His Time," or "Frankie and Johnnie." All somewhat cleaned up lyrically, but Mae couldn't sing a lullaby without making it sexy.

In this article, Tim Wilson continues his series with his Part Two look at the big news leaking from IBC 2009. Blackmagic Design has acquired da Vinci Systems and with that acquisition comes what Tim refers to as The Power of da Vinci. And for the many that have used da Vinci over the years, they know full well the power of which Tim writes. And for those who might need an introduction to this power, Tim offers these words...
POWER
Da Vinci products are all about power. Their real time performance with high resolution files has set their systems apart from the rest of the industry from the beginning. That’s why the following is among the most telling parts of Grant’s email: DaVinci is different to a DeckLink card because it’s a high performance computing based tool. Our focus will really be on adding more features.
As he notes elsewhere, a big focus will be on adding more features to Resolve in particular.
David Catt was a London-based colorist when he saw a demo of a da Vinci system in 1986. His company wound up purchasing the first unit installed in Europe, and a few years later, David began working with the company, first as a demo artist, and later as a product manager. Until he left the company two years ago, David was the product manager for Resolve.
One of the things we decided from the beginning is that we didn’t want to work in proxy mode, which is what everybody else was doing at the time. We heard people saying, ‘We don’t work with proxies either – we work at full resolution.’ We said, ‘Well then, after your color correction, why do you have to render them out?’ We could never get an answer – and neither could their customers.
Even in the very early stages of development, Resolve could work with 10-bit 2K DPX files, and record color corrections back to storage in real time. We continued to develop parallel-processing hardware that would allow us to process those images in real time. You could place one of these boards in a system, and it could process one layer of color correction. If you wanted more realtime processes, you could add more boards.
But there are limits to how many boards you can put in a PC. We were the first people to implement an Infiniband topology to move data from one box to another box very fast, so now we could connect multiple boxes to get the performance to do, say, 15 layers of 10-bit color correction in real time if we needed to.
The other thing about Resolve is that it was always designed as a colorist’s tool. A good example to show how complex something like this can get is something like Quantel’s qcolor that had lots of graphs for you to draw and manipulate – that’s fine for an engineer, but a colorist doesn’t want to look at graphs! They want to look at the pictures! You shouldn’t have to look at the panel while you do the work. You should be able to just look at the pictures.
Hence the very expensive control panels. When working 15-16 shifts or more, you have to feel comfortable. You have to do a lot of work, and keep going, so we designed them to be comfortable all day long.
Moving forward, David notes that many da Vinci customers are already using Blackmagic products. This is in contrast to some of the company’s previous owners, who bought the company for its cashflow. David notes that a recent owner went into bankruptcy, not because of da Vinci – which was quite profitable, if not quite profitable enough to cover the losses in other parts of that owner’s business. Oops.
He feels that Blackmagic’s presence in these facilities is important, because they understand the ways that products need to interface, to keep plugging gaps in evolving workflows. | http://magazine.creativecow.net/article/blackmagic-design-buys-the-power-of-davinci-part-2 | 2013-05-18T10:21:21 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

On Friday our little family scooted off to visit friends in Wakefield, to wine and dine and talk into the night, and play and brunch into the next afternoon.
For the first time, I felt, hmmm, uncomfortable in their home, like something's changed. I've changed, I think. We've been there with Helena before, but this is the first time the household featured an 11-week-old puppy.
Helena and the puppy excited each other greatly. Jennifer and I hovered close. I watched to make sure puppy didn't scratch Helena, poke her eye, or bowl her over on hard, ceramic tile floor. Jennifer watched, obviously anxious, to make sure Helena didn't hurt the puppy.
[I never understood how people could refer to themselves as "Mommy" (and less often "Daddy") regarding their pet "children." I consider myself an upstanding pet-owner, and never would I consider using these terms, and never did I presume that the relationship is at all analogous. Maybe it's that kind of sense that makes me fit to be a mother (of a human baby) after all.]
I guess I'm more permissive than not when it comes to baby. But on the whole I see Helena's exploration as harmless. I'm always there and I try to explain how stuff works and what it's for. We do rein her in somewhat, and she exhibits remarkable self-control, in other people's houses. But after Jennifer had asked a few questions about the age at which one can train baby, it was evident to me I should not have allowed Helena to open and close, open and close, open and close the kitchen cupboard, even though it was the kitchen cupboard of a very close friend.
And so it begins, the great divide between those with children and those without. I always said I would never let it happen to me. But undeniably, things are different now.
As other mommy bloggers have noted, inevitably the childless one kindly suggests that toy phones etc. are available at a store near you. Jennifer: "Those toys — they're so good, aren't they?" Well, no. Babies want the real thing. Somehow, they can tell the difference.
I'm starting to see a lot of differences.

Helena meets a puppy

1. (from Nightfly) Do you find that it’s harder to post rather than simply commenting at all your regular stops—coming up with ideas and such? Or, do you find that posting keeps you from “IRL” writing (essays, fiction, etc.)?
That’s a very thoughtful question. As a new blogger, I’m not finding posting hard, I think part of the reason for that is the intent behind my blogging is not one of duress. I’m not pressuring myself to come up with a killer post, day after day. I mean, if stuff’s going on IRL or I just don’t feel I have anything substantive to communicate to my (tiny but wonderful) readership, I will refrain from posting. The real intent behind my blog is to talk about myself a little and express my ideas (in the hopes of being heard, and possibly understood). Rather than risk dominating or going off topic in someone else’s combox, I have my own space to use my voice.
Interestingly enough, and I may be an exception for bloggers, having a space for my voice has reawakened the more creative writing side of me—or at least given it a place to work while I’ve been drawing too heavily on the academic side for research papers and the like for grad school. I’m seeing an increase in writing ideas and a more writer-ly frame of mind, more frequently. So instead of sapping my inspiration, blogging has been fueling it. Also, as I go along and keep discussing my writing on my blog, there might be an opportunity to garner a little encouragement and support for my writing by others who enjoy writing and/or reading.
2. (from Ashley) How did you decide to go back to school?
Some days I’m still asking myself that question! Well, the short version comes down to the circumstances in my life at the time, my state of mind, and the grace of God. The long version: The circumstances were that in April 2005 I suffered my first and only really bad breakup of a long term relationship (post college), and it was extremely protracted and difficult to get over, especially because we had a ton of friends in common (not to mention he continued to behave like a jerk even though he chose to end things). My roommate didn’t like that I was grieving and staying home more often, and she claimed my cat bit her and tried to evict me—so I moved. Then the ex started dating someone I’d thought was my friend, not even six months later. So a majority of my friends who were better friends with the new girlfriend (and did not seem to comprehend how she had basically let me cry on her shoulder and had helped me move—yup, saw everything I owned!--to justify and help her go after him), left me for her.
On top of that, the workload at my job had become absolutely unmanageable and they wouldn’t hire anybody to help. I was barely allowed to take off for Christmas in 2005, and I didn’t see any way to get promoted and be treated better. So no friends, no love, and a difficult job all made me miserable. By January or February 2006, I thought, well, I have an English degree, and people always asked me about being a teacher or told me I’d make a good teacher—why not see what the requirements are to get certified? I asked my mom to ask her next-door-neighbors, a couple who I knew were teachers, about it. The wife asked, “Why not be a school librarian?” She herself had tried teaching English for a year, decided it wasn’t for her, and went back to school for master’s degree in Library Science.
When I spent a day with her, in her library at school, I felt comfortable and I thought, “This isn’t like standing up in front of a classroom”—which had not appealed to me all—“I could do this.” So I applied to school. And I prayed. One of my intentions in a novena for St. Rita’s intercession was that if was meant to go to school, that there would be a way to pay for it.
Not only was I accepted (without having to take the GRE), I was offered a fellowship that took care of about 25% of my tuition. Mom found a laptop on sale, and I said to myself, “I guess I’m going to school.” Maybe if I hadn’t lost just about everything, and felt I had so little to lose, I might not have taken the plunge. But now that I’ve done it, and done really well in it (we’ll see how much I’ve learned!), I think I am closer to where my talents lie, and hopefully happier times in my life.
3. (also from Ashley) How does your faith affect your life?
It may sound weird, but faith informs my life. It’s like an undercurrent going behind what I do, how I act, how I feel, how I respond to things. I pray several times a day, but not really as a routine (except the Morning Offering and prayers before sleep)—sometimes I pray behind the wheel (that commute is good for something), but it’s more like a conversation from the heart.
I wasn’t always strong in my faith all my life, and in fact I had a hard time as a teenager believing that God loved me. Today, I don’t doubt that—my struggles these days are refraining from telling God what to do for me and when, and trusting that God wants to give me good things.
My faith probably has cost me some friendships, and definitely some dates. I’ll never forget the time I hit it off with the friend of a good friend while a bunch of us were at dinner together, and the next day my friend said she’d check things out for me. When the report came back, it was not good. Why? “Because you want to raise your kids Catholic.” Meaning I go to church, I’m not going to do what’s expected on the third date, I won’t move in with someone, etc. I know, his loss. I can’t compromise. I’m not perfect, but I don’t think I could live with myself if I compromised what I believe.
4. (from WordGirl) How about something/someone totally out of character that you secretly like?
This was a toughie. It seems to me that I have pretty eclectic and off-the-beaten-path tastes, so one “popular” thing was surprised to find that I like is the TV show Ugly Betty. My parents like to watch it, so one night I decided to see what it’s about. Granted I think some of the storylines are downright silly, but the characters are interesting. I also can’t wait to see what dreadful costume Betty has on!
I still can’t watch more than thirty seconds of Gray’s Anatomy without getting hives, though. It was up against The O.C. (the fourth season never existed!!!) for a while anyway. (Uh. . . is being a fan of The O.C. out of character too?)
5. (also from WordGirl) [How about] if you would ever get a tattoo (if you don’t have one. . .)?
Like you, WG, I am “uninked.” Although it’s funny you should mention it, because I noticed in Pilates class on Wednesday night that my instructor has one on her back behind her shoulder, and for a brief moment I confess I did fantasize about getting one. But the desire passed. It’s not so much the pain but rather the permanence (in spite of what lasers promise) and the change in color (and possibly shape, ha ha) over time. I don’t think tattoos indicate a bad reputation or anything—although excessive ones seem counterintuitive to me in terms of enhancing someone’s appearance. One of the nicest people in my college dorm (at my second undergrad college) was a young woman who dyed her hair jet black and sported several tattoos. I always knew that when a convention was going on downtown she’d come back with a new one, usually small. My older brother has a larger one—comic book related—in a really dumb place that's hard to cover. I suspect he did it just to get a reaction out of our mom. (Too bad that wasn’t the worst thing he ever did!)
Thank you all for some very thought-provoking questions, and I hope the answers were at least half as interesting! That was fun to do, so maybe this Special Edition will make another appearance in the future.
On a more serious note, I got some bad news this morning about my great-uncle. Granted, he's 90, but he had been managing amazingly well (with the help of my cousins) in spite of the loss of my great-aunt (my late grandmother's sister) a few years back and not being able to see or hear very well. But he wasn't feeling well lately, and my cousin said the doctor thinks it's a recurrence of cancer and looking really bad. As in "maybe a month" bad. Cancer sucks. I am so bummed out--he's an awesome person. He often would bring us bread from his half-brother's Italian bakery. Such a personality--and he's seen a lot in his lifetime, too. Until about a year or two ago, he would travel annually to Holland to visit the families in the town his squadron helped liberate in WWII. Right now he's staying with my cousin and her family, and I guess we just keep enjoying our time with him for now (I bought him fancy chocolates--he's a chocoholic). And praying.

Well, I'm glad the "five" were good ones! Actually I had a dream one night this week about the list of questions I would send you. Weird, right? But then the sun came out and my head went up my rear end, evidently! Ah well. I'll get you next time.
Sorry about your great-uncle. Cancer does certainly suck. He's in our prayers.
Man, pregnant women have the craziest dreams. It was far better that you played in the sunshine, Lizzie! Next time for sure.
Thanks for the prayers.
What great, thoughtful answers. Thanks!
Well, thank *you* for playing along! :)
Faith = undercurrent. Yep. I think that's the best explanation I've heard, actually.
And anything you give up, you get back a hundred fold. Or so says dude Jesus.
Kat Von D from "LA Ink" is the only person I've seen who can pull off the whole full-body tattoo thing. I confess, I'm jealous. But she's only going to be able to pull it off if somehow she stays exactly the same body-type with no wrinkles or gravity affecting her for the rest of her life. Not likely.
Kate- I have crazy dreams, but am reasonably sure that I am neither prgenant nor a woman. =)
Thanks for answering! I'm always interested in the process for a fellow writer/blogger.
WG--best explanation? Flattery will get you everywhere with me. :) And it must be tattoo month or something b/c on the way home today one radio show was interviewing a tattoo artist. . . hmmm.
'Fly--I'd take a crazy dream over the missed-the-bus-can't-find-my-class dreams. And the hockey rink is no place for a pregnant woman, anyway! ;) "Writing process" is a dignified term in my case for slapdash note-scribbling, obsession, and avoidance of the cruel world, apparently. | http://maiden-aunt.blogspot.com/2008/06/friday-five-ask-kate-p-nearly-anything.html | 2013-05-18T10:52:14 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

The manual is a tagged svn revisio.
Given that Antoine intends to release 1.8.1 pretty soon it may be enough
to add an entry to the "doesn't work" section of the FAQ. I'll do so as
soon as I commit the patch (I'll give the poll another day or two).

Abe White commented on OPENJPA-175:
-----------------------------------
1. Are you also going to fix InExpression to honor the DBDictionary's new in clause limit?
2. After reviewing the patch some more, I propose the following simplified version:
// try to find a good page size. if the known size < batch size, use
// it. if the batch size is set, then use that; if it's sorta close
// to the size, then use the size / 2 to get two full pages rather
// than a possible big one and small one
int batch = getFetchConfiguration().getFetchBatchSize();
int pageSize;
if (batch < 0)
pageSize = (int) size;
else {
if (batch == 0)
batch = 50; // reasonable default
if (size <= batch)
pageSize = (int) size;
else if (size <= batch * 2) {
if (size % 2 == 0)
pageSize = (int) (size / 2);
else
pageSize = (int) (size / 2 + 1);
} else
pageSize = batch;
}

> The PagingResultObjectProvider during initialization does checks to determine the appropriate
pageSize. While this logic caps the size to 50 and addresses determining an appropriate page
size, it doesn't always conform to the set batch size. For example with the size being 1000
and FetchBatchSize set to say 500, the page size is determined to be 50 resulting in eager
selects happening in batches of 50 when the user expects it to be in batches of 500.

I think i probably agree that barriers on should be the default, but the only valid reason you've come close to providing for it is "some programmers don't want to care." In fact, it's more of an issue of robustness and common use. Having extra barriers hurts nothing but performance. APIs should, in my opinion, cater to correctness but allow for optimization. The existing API (which I helped create 8-) caters to optimization and allows correctness -- but in fact all implementations do the opposite AFAIK. > Considering above, I think that there is no need for bus_space_* > to depend on preprocesor define. > > If semantics were changed, we could just remove all > bus_space_barrier() calls and _then_ start thinking about optimizing > parts that really need it.

For instance, on many alphas, there are two different types: write (wmb) and read-write (mb). (On the rest, the former are treated as the latter.) So, for instance: write a wmb write b wmb write c is certainly OK, but: write a wmb write b [ X ] read c may or may not be OK with "X" being mb, wmb, or nothing, depending on the relationship of a, b, and c, specifically whether C depends on writes to a and b having been seen first.

Given that the ordering of write_region_N is undefined, most platforms shouldn't need barriers between the elements, no. In general, I don't think much effort has been put into optimizing the region and multi variants, (i hop 8-) at least in part probably because there's been little little effort to investigate which are used widely and how much effort is worth _expending_. cgd | http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2000/10/18/0010.html | 2013-05-18T10:15:31 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

As Jim mentioned, it's easy enough to get around these kinds of limitations that the "cure" may wind up worse than the "disease" that you're trying to get rid of. However, if you'd like to put in a request for this enhancement, please do so via the Sourceforge Mailman RFE page. | http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2005-January/041677.html | 2013-05-18T10:54:41 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Hi there, I've recently configured a mailman mailing list. Among other things, I've been thrown by the fact that any time I mention the name of the list in the "subject:" of an email, it gets stripped. The public name for the list is FYI, the prefix for the subject line is FYI - and if I write FYI anywhere in the subject line, it's automatically removed. I don't often mention the name of the list, but it'd be good to know what to do if I need to. Thanks, Jacob.// | http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2007-January/055539.html | 2013-05-18T11:02:39 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

1. The review period is over and py_cpp has been accepted into boost ()! In the next few weeks it will undergo changes in keeping with the review commentary. Also, expect development activity to slow for a while as I will be at the C++ committee meeting and Ullrich Koethe will also be away. 2. An update has been posted to and a. Documentation of support for special method names has been added b. Workarounds for a Dec Alpha compiler/lib bug were added. c. Minor fixes to the rest of the documentation were made 3. There is still a little time to vote for a better name!

Essentially, in order to write a Twisted WSGI gateway (for running WSGI apps under Twisted), you *must* use threads (e.g. deferToThread) for invoking the WSGI application and iterating over its result, because a synchronous WSGI app might block during either operation. However, note that an asynchronous server/gateway is free to delay requesting another iteration, if the application yields an empty string. So, the minimum "asynchronous API" is simply backing off the iteration rate when the application yields empty strings. But, a more sophisticated API would of course only iterate when there was data available to be iterated. | http://mail.python.org/pipermail/web-sig/2004-October/000994.html | 2013-05-18T10:42:18 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Reuse is Recycling
GSA will be hosting an online training via Webex open to all Federal Agencies. The goal is to provide training to agencies and their personnel when it is not possible to attend traditional classes. By providing this online training, our Federal customers can gain the knowledge they need when it is most convenient for them.
This topic examines how Reuse is Recycling and how Federal agencies can reuse and recycle Federal property to extend the life cycle of a Federal asset. Most Federal property can be considered reusable property. This one hour training will teach you how Reuse is Recycling is important in the Federal property disposal process.
The training will be held on March 13, 2013 11:00 AM EST. Please contact Matt Grace Property Disposal Specialist matthew.grace@gsa.gov with any questions or comments about this training.

Willy Mason on drums? I have never seen that before. The headliner of Vineyard musicians who fills houses across our nation and in Europe played back-up all night. But Willy was appropriately humble in this company — a gathering of the best of the best of Island musicians. Rob Myers, aka Jellybone Rivers had invited Nina Violet (viola), Brad Tucker (standup bass), Marciana Jones (ukelele), Michelle Jones (electric guitar), Adam Lipsky (piano), Charlie Esposito (clarinet), Slim Bob Berosh (electric guitar) and Elisha Wiesner (electric guitar). — it was here and it was.. | http://mailto:classifieds@mvgazette.com/news/2012/01/12/musical-pit-stop-revs-oak-bluffs | 2013-05-18T11:03:53 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
so, what are you doing to spread the word of less government, and more importantly, what are you doing to spread the idea of anarchism?
The personal is the political. I plan on living as state-free as possible for now. I participate in agorism in New Hampshire. After I've completed learning primitive survival skills I plan on homesteading a few acres to live on. I also campaigned for Ron Paul in NH.
What am i doing? I'm living my life. Period. I do it without the help of the state. I spend every day trying to better myself. If people have questions for me i give them my opinion and source to look up. I have little interest in spreading the message to people that really have no interest in it. I'll state my opinion and leave it at that. If it confuses or shocks someone, then i'll explain myself. Over time i have seen friends start to gain interest due to my lack of "shoving it in their face" style like many others have. That's my biggest issue with Paul supporters, Spamming Ron Paul 2012 or trying to debate everyone that disagrees with them is unproductive.
Williamloveseconomics:That's my biggest issue with Paul supporters, Spamming Ron Paul 2012 or trying to debate everyone that disagrees with them is unproductive.
Well, I agree, if you're style of debating is just shouting the other guy down. But I would say having a civil debate is very important for winning people over. One of the major reasons I abandoned socialism is watching my socialist classmates debate my Libertarian professor in college. He offered reason, they offered emotion and namecalling. It was enough to get me to look into the other side.
Williamloveseconomics:What am i doing? I'm living my life. Period.
Uh. Great. What the heck does that have to do with being politically active?

Aren't you supposed to be in the woods by now?
I am not, nor do I make any effort to spread anarchism

Sometimes I get it into my head that I'd like to be more involved. At that point I start doing research into exactly where I could begin to plug myself in so to speak. Usually after looking into the amount of work I'd have to be doing (most of it as a volunteer or for very low pay because I'm underqualified) I give up and go back to playing video games and playing around on the internet. I'm just too damn lazy to be politically active.
