one of the most stunning parties i have seen on this site!!

Party Recap...
The Little Black & White Dress
When creating the theme for this shower, I was immediately drawn to the black & white damask pattern. I think that it is so elegant and modern. I wanted to use the wedding colors but as accent colors. The wedding colors are fuchsia and turquoise, so we sprinkled those colors throughout.
The tables were setup with black floor length tablecloths topped with black & white damask runners that my mom had made. We were inspired by the Gossip Girl Shower featured on the HWTM and created our own version of those fabulous ruffled placemats. My mom made these using layers and layers of fuchsia ribbon. They were a big hit and I think that they came out great! The fuchsia really popped against the black and white. My mom is my secret weapon. We placed a silver charger on top along with a damask plate and napkin.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
Surrounded by mountains and crisscrossed by rivers, Taipei is the center of Taiwan's (Republic of China) government, economy and culture. On this half-day tour, discover Taipei, a modern and cosmopolitan city infused with ancient culture and traditions. You will begin with a drive from the busy port of Keelung to dynamic Taipei. Your first stop is the prestigious National Palace Museum, boasting one of the world's most important art collections, originally housed in Beijing's Forbidden City. In 1931, the collection went to Nanjing, then on to Shanghai, to avoid falling into invading Japanese hands. In 1949, Chiang Kai Shek's armies took the collection to Taiwan, following their defeat at the hands of Mao Zedong. Today, the museum holds over 650,000 items, including jade, bronze, porcelain and lacquer pieces, as well as tapestry and embroidery. Continue with a visit to the remarkable Martyrs Shrine, built in memory of those who sacrificed their lives in founding the Republic of China. Your next stop is the beloved Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial, built to commemorate the life of the leader of Nationalist China who moved his government into exile on Taiwan in 1949. Surrounded by 62 acres of parks and beautifully landscaped gardens, the eye-catching Memorial Hall is a luminous white marble structure, topped with brilliant lapis blue-glazed tiles. There are 89 steps leading up to the Memorial, one for every year that Chiang Kai-Shek lived. Leaving the sights of Taipei behind, return to the ship docked in Keelung.

Zach DukeFri, 09/16/2011 - 10:36 — jeremy.smitherman
As far as baseball pitchers are concerned, the aces and closers tend to get the attention, while the unsung heroes tend to be the workhorses who churn out innings by the dozen over the course of each season. Arizona's Zach Duke is a workhorse. Since his impressive rookie season where he was the first Pittsburgh rookie to win his first five starts, including a dazzling 9-strikeout performance in his big league debut, Duke's workhorse status has been well earned over his six years in the big leagues. Duke has averaged just north of 6-innings-per-start over the course of his career, and was among the league leaders in innings pitched and starts in each of the 2006 and 2009 seasons. Duke's impressive performance in 2009 earned him his lone All Star selection.
Chad BillingsleyFri, 09/16/2011 - 10:35 — jeremy.smitherman
After bouncing from a starting role to the bullpen over the course of his first two big-league seasons in 2006 & 2007, Chad Billingsley elevated his status to that of baseball's elite starting pitchers in 2008. That year saw Billingsley put forth a dominant 16-win season in which he eclipsed the 200-strikeout plateau. Over the past three seasons (2008-10) Billingsley has solidified his status as an elite fire-baller averaging more than 180 Ks and just north of 13 wins, while solidifying a 3.55 lifetime ERA and an opponent batting average of .248. An All Star in 2009, Billingsley is a member of a strong starting rotation in Los Angeles that's expected to anchor the team throughout the 2011 season.
Jonathan BroxtonFri, 09/16/2011 - 10:34 — jeremy.smitherman
There aren't many big-league pitchers more intimidating on the mound than 6'4", 300 lb Los Angeles closer Jonathan Broxton. As is the case with many closers, the equation is simple with Broxton. Hitters know he's going to come at them with nothing but straight heat. The only question is whether or not they can handle it. After two seasons as one of the league's most-effective set up men, Broxton earned the role of closer in Los Angeles midway through 2008. In only 69 innings of work, Broxton registered 14 saves and 88 strikeouts, following up the next season (his first full-season as the team's closer) in 2009 with an All Star season in which he amassed 36 saves, striking out 114 hitters in only 76 innings. Broxton enters 2011, his third year as Los Angeles' full-time closer looking to build on his impressive career numbers of 77 saves, 493 strikeouts over 379 innings and a 3.11 ERA.
Corey HartFri, 09/16/2011 - 10:32 — jeremy.smitherman
Over the past four seasons, Milwaukee outfielder Corey Hart has become one of the most dangerous hitters in the big leagues, amassing more than 80 HRs and 320 RBI over this span. These numbers become even more impressive considering this period includes a 2009 season shortened significantly by injuries. Hart was named to the All Star team in two of these four years (2008 & 2010). Known for his imposing 6'6" frame, Hart showcased his power-stroke on a national stage at the 2010 Home Run Derby where he amazed baseball fans by tallying 13 home runs in his first at bat. He went on to finish third in the competition. Hart is a key member of the dangerous Milwaukee lineup, loaded with elite power hitters that many believe will be as productive an offensive force as the league will offer in 2011.
Matt CainFri, 09/16/2011 - 10:31 — jeremy.smitherman
The silent superstar for San Francisco's young pitching staff is fire-baller Matt Cain. Few would argue that Cain is among the game's most dominant, albeit under-appreciated starting pitchers, and his impact during the Giant's 2010 Championship season was invaluable. Over just five full seasons since his debut as the most anticipated pitching prospect in 2005, Cain has been the picture of consistency and production. In just over 1,000 innings pitched, Cain has registered more than 900 strikeouts, an ERA of 3.45 and a WHIP of 1.22. While his win-loss record may not seem as impressive (57-62), those numbers are incredibly deceiving. The truth is that Cain's run-support has not been as consistent as his own performance, failing to register wins in a host of games where he's held opponents to little or no runs. This fact is supported by his consistently being among the league's leaders in quality starts. His post-season dominance in 2010 was capped off by 7 2/3 scoreless innings in Game Two of the Fall Classic against Texas, becoming only the fifth pitcher in postseason history to register more than 20 innings without yielding a single earned run. This propensity to deliver when it's needed most has earned him the nickname "Big Game Cain."

Glen Allen Resident to Sing National Anthem at Nationwide Race
When thousands of fans stand for the national anthem tonight prior to the Virginia 529 College Savings 250 NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Richmond International Raceway, all eyes will be on a Glen Allen resident fulfilling a lifetime dream of singing at a NASCAR race.
Twenty-two year-old Ryan Corbin of Glen Allen entered Richmond International Raceway's National Anthem contest last month and ultimately won the opportunity to perform prior to the race.
"I'm so excited," said Corbin. "Four months ago I was in the stands hoping I could sing at a race one day. And four months later I'm doing it. It's the chance of a lifetime and I've wanted to do it since I was five years old. I'm just overwhelmed with joy right now."
In August, the track hosted a month-long contest to determine who would perform the National Anthem prior to the Virginia 529 College Savings 250 NASCAR Nationwide Series race. Nearly a hundred submissions were received via e-mail, mail and through an open audition at Short Pump Mall. The second and final rounds were showcased at the mall and Corbin bested eight other finalists for the opportunity to perform.
Corbin is a huge NASCAR fan and was introduced to motorsports by his father. Following his first race, he was instantly hooked.
"Racing at Richmond is exciting in so many ways," said Corbin. "Forty-three cars on a short track at night, running side-by-side, watching them beat and bang for every lap! Now that's exciting, and the reason Richmond racing is so special. When you walk to your seat you can feel the vibrations as the cars go around and you can see drivers up close! It's just an all around amazing place!
Agencies combine on new entry point to Chickahominy
Canoeing and kayaking enthusiasts soon will have a new access point to the Chickahominy River. VDOT, the James River Association and Henrico County Parks and Recreation are teaming up to establish a new site in Eastern Henrico.
The James River Association negotiated the deal with VDOT to procure official access to the area located just east of I-295 on North Airport Road in Sandston. The site includes a park-and-ride commuter lot bordering the Chickahominy River and has been an unofficial launch site used by paddlers for years. > Read more.

RIP Dio
I saw it when I was logging into my Yahoo account just now. Bawling my brains out. WTF with this cancer garbage...I'm so sick of it! I saw him live many moons ago. Sick of the whole Ozzy vs. Dio thing, reminds me of skate debates as to who is the "better" skater...they were/are both tremendous vocalists and performers of all heavy metal time. RIP Dio.
I've been listening to Dio since my very early childhood. I adore his work in Rainbow (Kill the King, Stargazer, Catch the Rainbow, Temple of the King, Rainbow Eyes...), Black Sabbath, numerous other projects. He had a unique voice and style. Besides he was an outstanding songwriter and composer. His vocal style and professionalism were unmatched.
That is really sad. But he has accomplished more than many can only dream about. He has become a legend long before he passed away. Many rock vocalist starting the 80s has been infuenced by him.
Long Live Rock'n'Roll!

Cheat Sheet | Edited by Abhinav Bhatt | Updated: May 06, 2013 15:51 IST
The top court observed that development of nuclear energy is important for India and allowing the plant is in larger public interest.
It said all expert bodies were of unanimous opinion that adequate safety measures had been taken.
A clutch of petitions had challenged a Madras High Court order in August last year that, while asking India's nuclear watchdog to ensure that necessary safeguards were complied with, gave the go-ahead for the loading of fuel in the plant.
The petitioners had opposed the plant's operationalisation arguing many of the 17 additional safety measures prescribed by a government task force had not been put in place. The Centre has said 15 of those mostly enhanced safety features have been implemented and the rest will be in due course.
The judgement comes close on the heels of the detection of four faulty valves in the first reactor unit of the plant which were later replaced. Some Russian officials were also arrested recently over alleged corruption in sourcing sub-standard materials from some Russian nuclear plants.
Locals and activists have been agitating for the last two years against the plant, demanding closure of the plant. Idinthakarai, which is just three kilometres away from the plant complex, has served as the Ground Zero of the protests. Fishermen, who form the majority of the population staying in the plant's vicinity, are worried that the nuclear plant will adversely affect marine life and hence, their livelihood.
The People's Movement Against Nuclear Energy (PMANE), which has been spearheading the anti-Kudankulam campaign, has cited the Fukushima disaster in Japan, triggered by a massive tsunami, to draw parallels about the dangers of a nuclear plant. It has also raised various questions pertaining to the disposal of nuclear waste, besides other issues linked to the plant.
D Udayakumar, the coordinator for PMANE, told NDTV that "people cannot be murdered in the name of sustainable development" and that the "Supreme Court is silent on liability and waste management issues."
The Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd (NPCIL), which operates the plant, too insists that the plant is safe and is "fully equipped to withstand" Fukushima-type incidents.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, who initially supported the cause of the anti-Kudankulam movement, later did a U-turn - after two committees gave their nod - citing that the project could bring relief to the state which is reeling under a severe power shortage.
The power project is being set up in Kudankulam, around 650 kilometres south of Chennai, with two Russian-made, 1,000-MW nuclear reactors.

Residents of the Glasgow State Nursing Facility have yet to move into their new building.
The reason for the delay — the federal government shutdown.
According to Gwenda Bond, assistant communications director for the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Families, the project is awaiting approval of a notice of compliance from the federal Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency announced Wednesday it's reimbursing the state for 75% of the cost of the 2010 Fourmile Canyon and Reservoir road fires.
A new documentary airing on local public television tonight tells the story of seven mountain residents who defied evacuation orders and battled last year's Four Mile Canyon Fire near Boulder, ultimately helping save scores of homes from the state's most destructive wildfire.
Several commemorative events and a fundraiser are planned this week marking the one year anniversary of the Four Mile Canyon fire west of Boulder which destroyed 169 homes and damaged scores more.
To commemorate the 1 year anniversary of the Four Mile Canyon Fire west of Boulder, a new museum exhibit looks at the history and future of wildfires in the region.
Boulder County officials are in "wait and see" mode as a spring storm brings rain and snow to the area burned by last September's Four Mile Canyon wildfire. The moisture is welcome in many parts of the Front Range but it could trigger mudslides and other problems in the burn area.

4.05/5 rDev +4.9%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4
Poured into a snifter with a pitch black body that shows no light and has a cascading, dense, 2-finger brown/chocolate head. Smells like vanilla, chocolate, molasses, floral hops and earthy oak. Taste is dominant vanilla and dark cocoa followed by rich coffee and caramel flavors and a bitter floral hop characteristic. Warms with a bit of alcohol bite/burn. Mouth is very heavy and thick with mid to low carbonation, coating and full. Drinks easy for a bourbon aged stout and has great flavor and aroma. Not quite world-class yet, but I think that in a year or so it will be absolutely perfect and I'm eagerly waiting for graduation to open my other bottle. Another great job by Victory

Review 2400! 750 ml bottle into snifter, bottled on 11/10/2011. Pours pitch black color with a 2 finger dense and rocky tan head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lists. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a good amount of streaming carbonation retaining the head. Aromas of dark chocolate, cocoa, roasted malt, raisin, prune, vanilla, toast, toffee, oak, bourbon, pine, grass, and bourbon/oak earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/roasted malt, bourbon barrel, and light-moderate hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of dark chocolate, cocoa, roasted malt, raisin, prune, vanilla, toast, toffee, oak, bourbon, pine, grass, and bourbon/oak earthiness. Fair amount of pine/grassy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, roast, raisin, prune, vanilla, toffee, toast, oak, bourbon, pine, and bourbon/oak earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roasted malt, bourbon barrel, and moderate hop flavors; with a very nice malt/barrel balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium-high carbonation and medium bodied; with a very smooth, moderately creamy, and lightly sticky/chalky mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming present after the finish. Overall this is a very good barrel aged imperial stout. All around good complexity and balance of dark/roasted malt, bourbon barrel, and moderate hop flavors; and very smooth to sip on for the ABV. A nicely enjoyable offering.

A - 2011 Bottle poured into a HIghland Snifter. Pours dark brown with a finger of khaki head that dissipates quickly leaving a small amount of lacing.
S - All bourbon on the nose. Some underlying vanilla, and a touch of sweetness like burnt sugar.
T - Taste follows the nose pretty closely. Bourbon up front with some vanilla in the background. Chocolate and roasted malts come through on the back end, w/ a bit of acidity and alcohol in the aftertaste.
M - Not overly thick, but oily. It coats the mouth, but could use some more body. Medium carbonation, which feels right for the beer.
O - This isn't a bad beer, but it's sorely lacking in complexity. The dark fruit aromas and tastes that I've come to love in this style of beer are not present. No real coffee flavors either. The bourbon is definitely present, but so is the alcohol even after a few years in the cellar.

Bottled on Nov. 9, 2011
Ap - Fluffy, khaki head that comes back to life after a quick swirl.there is very minimal lace. Deep space black body.
Ar - Oak, dark chocolate, notes of bourbon. Vanilla cones through as it opens up.
T - Very similar to nose. It's very simple, yet complex. I think the flavors are all blended together. Roast/Char malty character is present, too.
M - Thick, viscous, near perfect for a stout!
O - Bitter, bourbon, oaky, chocolate bomb. A great RIS. This one just seems to have too much of a good thing for me. (Is that possible?)

2011 vintage, 22 oz, purchased at Nathaniel Square Corner Store in Rochester, NY.
Pours a dark, intense black. Not much head or carbonation present here.
Smells like dark roasted malt, and some grain alcohol.
Taste is pretty similar, very roasty and delicious, but somehow, this 2.5 year bottle is still boozy. Medicinal alcohol is present at the end of each sip, dropping the drinkability with astringency. Additional flavors include woodiness, vanilla, and chocolate.
A little bit thin for a BA beer, but well carbonated, and creamy.
Not one of Victory's best beers, and it might be past its prime here. Nonetheless, it's pretty tasty, and I'm glad I picked it up.

Thanks to Duff27 for the bottle. "Bottled On: Nov 10 2011." 750ml brown glass bottle with unbranded gold hood-and-wire cap over a branded cork and appealing label art served into a Guinness stem-goblet in me parents' gaff in high altitude Castle Rock, Colorado. Reviewed live. Expectations are high given the brewery and the fact that this is a bourbon barrel aged version of Storm King - a beer I dug.
Served cold - straight from the fridge - and allowed to warm over the course of consumption. Side-poured with standard vigor as no carbonation issues are anticipated.
A: No bubble show forms as it's poured.
Pours a 2.5 finger wide head of khaki-tan colour. Not the rich dark tan colour that I love in an imperial stout, but is still appealing. Nice creaminess and thickness. Smooth even consistency. Complexion could be softer. Uneven inconsistent lacing clings to the sides of the glass as the head recedes. Head retention is good - about 5 minutes.
Body colour is an opaque solid black. No floating yeast particles are visible. Appears overcarbonated judging by the abundant cola-esque bubbles crowding the underside of the goblet.
Overall, it's appealing, but unremarkable - especially for a bourbon barrel aged imperial stout. I'd like it creamier, fuller, and darker. A better head would be helpful as well. I'm looking forward to trying it, but it's far from unique or special. There are no egregious flaws.
Sm: Dominant bourbon is the first thing I notice. It's aggressive without overwhelming the other notes. Light vanilla evokes neither true vanilla bean on the high end nor artificial vanillicin on the low end. Noticeable oak, but no toasty character or refined soaky wood notes. Obligatory dark malts and chocolate malts. Unfortunately, I'm not finding any roasted barley character, which is essential in a great imperial stout. Cocoa powder. Plenty of malty sweetness. A hint of insipid coffee. A very faint burnt character is detectable as well.
Certainly not a hoppy imperial stout. I don't get any yeast character or alcohol from the aroma. Frankly, it just isn't all that evocative; each note feels very shallow and surface. It's a bit reticent overall, but I'm optimistic given the base beer. It's a pleasant aroma of below average strength.
T: Hm. Unfortunately, the taste is as shallow as the aroma suggested. Very surface notes of dark malts and chocolate malts provide the body, with complementary notes of cocoa powder, light ash/burnt character, and some malty sweetness. The bourbon is well-integrated but fairly artificial; I wonder about the quality of the bourbon used. There are one-dimensional notes of artificial vanilla and reticent-as-hell oak (with no toasty or refined qualities).
Somehow though, there's no booziness or alcohol presence. I'm not finding any coffee either. There's also no yeast or hop character.
On the sweeter side overall, though the slight burnt character does curb that a bit.
It's damned simple. I'm a bit surprised; the base beer was pretty complex. Could age have muted the flavour profile? This beer lacks complexity, subtlety, nuance, and intricacy. It's balanced, sure, but there's not that much going on to balance. I wonder how this drank fresh. It's cohesive, but far from gestalt. I'm really disappointed. Painfully shallow for the style. Below average intensity of flavour. Average duration of flavour.
The key to a great bourbon barrel stout is using the bourbon notes to develop the natural nuances of the base beer. This is uncommon in that it isn't the bourbon overwhelming the base that is the issue, it's the fact that the base beer is nowhere to be found. This level of simplicity is staggering.
Mf: Chalky, with a strange muted presence on the palate. Smooth and wet. Too airy and light. It needs more body, weight, and thickness. Lacks punch. I feel like the texture doesn't fully facilitate each note from the flavour profile. Where's the oomph, victory? Sure, it's not boozy or hot, but an imperial stout needs to be more bold and assertive. It's a clean mouthfeel with no yeasty sediment, gushed quality, or harshness, but it comes off weak. Almost Guinness-esque.
The texture does not complement the taste well.
Dr: I'll finish the bottle with relative ease. The mouthfeel enhances drinkability because it's so silky and light, but the beer loses power and presence as a trade-off. The mouthfeel and simplicity of this beer really hold it back. I prefer regular Storm King and can see why they retired this brew. I'd like to see Victory re-try a barrel aged Storm King in the future, preferably with a superior bourbon and more care regarding the mouthfeel. I wouldn't recommend this to friends, but I'm glad I got to try it. Thanks, Duff27!
Bottom line: Serious missed potential from Victory, Dark Intrigue fails to use bourbon barrel notes to develop or enhance the notes of the base beer, and really commits a faux pas with the light airy texture.

Data Sets
There are several sources of geospatial and attribute data, including your own data sets, government and commercial resources. The links to the left will break down several data set sources by scope: national, state, and international. Be aware that while many data sets are free, several, including some federal data sets, are only available for a fee. As a Federal Depository Library, the GT Library also receives some GIS data on CD and DVD, while several key sources are mentioned, the library catalog will provide a full listing of a variety of reports and data series from several federal agencies.
Attribute data sets are also very useful, particularly in thematic mapping and data analysis. Attribute data might not be available in a spatial form, but many federal sources will include FIPS codes for information captured at a geographic entity like the county level. These codes will allow you to join this attribute data to existing spatial data.
When obtaining GIS data, remember that different agencies and companies will use different protocols for creating and making the spatial data available. The GIS software that you are using may be able to read some data formats and may be able to import others. Be aware of the metadata that accompanies the dataset which can help you determine the sources of the data, copyright restrictions, and the recency of the data. When combining data from multiple sources also be aware of the following:
- Does the scale of the data match your other data sets?
- Does the coordinate system of the data match?
- Are the data projected in the same way?
- What level of summary data is available (e.g. county, state, etc)?

ACD/Structure Elucidator
ACD/Structure Elucidator is a complete software package to help in the elucidation of unknown structures. It allows you to incorporate data from various analytical techniques (Chrom, UV-IR, MS, and NMR) to assist in the elucidation. The software follows the steps you might take manually when carrying out an elucidation, providing results in an unbiased fashion. Either use the software for full elucidation, entering all analytical data and using it to guide the software to provide all viable structures that fit the data; or enter a proposed structure and let the software predict the 1D and 2D NMR spectra and propose alternative structures.
Features of ACD/Structure Elucidator
• Vendor neutral analytical data processing for NMR, MS, UV-IR, Chrom, and MS
• Dereplication of known compounds-search the internal library of 2 million structural fragments
• Computer assisted structure elucidation (CASE) using NMR, MS, UV-IR, and chromatography data
• NMRSync—automatically synchronize peak picking and assignment across all spectra for a particular dataset.
• Structure evaluation—automatically compare predicted and experimental NMR spectra and receive a match factor.
• Database experimental spectra, chemical structures, analysis results, along with user data and notes.
• Determine relative stereochemistry—optimize structures in 3D and determine stereochemistry with NOESY and ROESY data.
Benefits of ACD/Structure Elucidator
• Resolve structures faster and more efficiently by collectively applying all your analytical data.
• Generate a complete set of structures that fit the experimental data provided.
• View viable alternatives to a proposed structure based on predicted NMR spectra for your compound.

Thank you. Great read!
Thanks very much for the link. You're right - there is not a lot of information about Hanyu in English. And who knew he had an autobiography?
This cracked me up:
He is extremely mature for his age, and exceedingly humble. Between his enormous talent and his "I can always work hard and improve" attitude, I think he is bound for continued success.When I stood on the podium at the Daiei Cup, I lifted my trophy up high, showing it to the audience. Despite wearing a childish sweat suit, I was totally pretending to be just like Plushenko. And I was smiling with no teeth!"
"I miss footwork that has any kind of a discernible pattern. The goal of a step sequence should not be for a skater to show the same ice coverage as a Zamboni and take about as much time as an ice resurface. " ~ Zemgirl, reflecting on a pre-IJS straight line sequence
Thank you for sharing. I just adore him!

Just six days before the general election, an audio recording has surfaced in which 1st District Congressional Candidate John Koster reportedly says abortion should not be legal, even in cases involving "the rape thing."
An AP story published by several news outlets reports Koster, a Republican from Arlington, was speaking at a fundraiser on Sunday when he stated that he believes abortion ought to be an option when the mother's life is in danger. But the Snohomish County Council member went on to say he would oppose abortion in cases of rape or incest, according to the AP:
Koster twice uses the phrase "the rape thing" in the recording, saying it doesn't make the situation better by "putting more violence into a woman's body."
Koster spokesman Larry Stickney says Koster is not cavalier about the issue and supports tough punishments for sex offenders.
The audio recording was provided to the AP by a liberal advocacy group.
Koster's campaign website reflects the views the candidate stated at the fundraiser, indicating he has a "100% pro-life voting record," and that the exception he makes to his views are in cases when the mother's life is in danger.
Koster's opponent, Democrat Suzan DelBene of Medina, says on her campaign website that she supports abortion rights: "The recent assault on women's health care is unacceptable and I will fight against any attempt to reduce access to birth control or reproductive health services."
The latest poll from KING 5 shows DelBene leading Koster by just 3 percentage points, which is within the survey's margin of error.
What do you think of the candidates' views on abortion? Is it an important issue in this race? Tell us in the comments section.

Kim Kardashian is pregnant -- perhaps you've heard -- and though she's not due until July, the tabloids are already having a field day with her weight gain.
Kim Kardashian is pregnant -- perhaps you've heard -- and though she's not due until July, the tabloids are already having a field day with her weight gain.
On Thursday on "The Tonight Show," Jay Leno asked the reality starlet and outspoken proponent of uncomfortable maternity fashion whether the media were being a little unfair to her.
"I think it's a little bully-ish to call a pregnant woman fat. I mean what do you expect?" she replied. Kardashian said that she's put on about 25 pounds but is unfazed by the weight gain.
PHOTOS: Oddly fantastic baby names
"I've always been curvy. I've always embraced my curves," said Kardashian, also a spokesperson for the weight-loss supplement QuickTrim. "I have the rest of my life to be skinny and to lose weight."
She laughed off reports that she and her beloved Kanye West were planning to call their baby "North" -- get it? -- but said she's fond of the name "Easton." As in, "Easton West." (Psst, Kim! We're not sure that's much better.)
Elsewhere in the conversation, Kardashian addressed her feud with Chelsea Handler (over), whether her unborn child will go into showbiz (not unless he or she wants to), and if she plans to broadcast her birth like her sister Kourtney (no, but she's not ruling anything out).
And, of course, there was also a pointed reference to Jimmy Fallon's takeover of "The Tonight Show." When Leno asked about her future on "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," the reality show that followed the sex tape that made her famous, Kardashian couldn't resist cracking a joke.
"They asked what I would do after our contract was up, and I said that I actually put in an application for your job, because I heard yours was up too," she said. "So I'm hoping to take over your job."
Please, Kim, don't give the folks at NBC any ideas.

Staff reports
Lockport Union-Sun & Journal
A reception will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday at DeSales Catholic School to honor the Sisters of St. Mary of Namur for their 150-year commitment to service in the Lockport community.
The event also serves as the public launch of the Legacy of Caring Continues capital campaign, and is hosted by campaign co-chairwomen Jennifer Murphy and Ann Murphy-Beaulieu.
The campaign will help fund new and renovated residential and health-related spaces for the sisters. This is the first time in the congregation's history in Western New York that a capital campaign has been undertaken to directly address the care of the sisters.
"This is a tremendous undertaking on our part." said Sister Caroline Smith, provincial superior for the sisters' Eastern Province. "It reaffirms our continued commitment to the people of Western New York while also allowing us to meet the long-term needs of our sisters."
The Sisters of St. Mary of Namur established their first ministries in the City of Lockport, by founding St. Joseph's Academy and staffing all-Catholic parochial schools in the city since 1863.
After the merger of De Sales and St. Joseph's Academy, the sisters were on the staff of the high school and brought innovation to Catholic education in the diocese through the first elementary school consolidation — Lockport Catholic — and the subsequent moving of the school into one facility.
Countless people in Lockport and throughout Western New York have been educated and otherwise touched through the ministries and mission of the Sisters of St. Mary.
"Our campaign is a transformational event at this time in our history. Our success will ensure our presence and our diverse ministries to the people of the area and also provide a home for our sisters as they age," said Sister Marian Baumler, provincial counselor for the Sisters of St. Mary and the congregation's campaign spokesperson.
For more information about the campaign and the Sisters of St. Mary of Namur, call Sister Marian at 884-8221, ext. 14, or attend the reception.
Dessert and coffee will be served at the reception and several of the Sisters will attend to greet friends and former students.

The only schools where students chose Romney over Obama were Wheaton North, Benet Academy and Hinsdale Central, according to the DuPage Election Commission.
The Wheaton League of Women Voters (LWV) and the DuPage County Board of Election Commissioners staged and coordinated the mock elections at Naperville North, Naperville Central and Waubonsie Valley high schools.
The elections were staged and coordinated at 18 high schools by the League of Women Voters (LWV) and the DuPage County Board of Election Commissioners.
In all, Obama-Biden received 9,540 votes and Romney-Ryan 5,281 votes. The Libertarian ticket received 479 votes, the Green ticket 468 votes and there were 633 write-in votes cast.
"We are pleased to partner with the League of Women Voters in this worthy and important effort to acquaint students with the democratic process," Cathy Ficker Terrill, Chairperson of the Election Commission said in a statement.
Missey Wilhelm, Vice President of the League of Women Voters of Wheaton said in a statement, "We have a long history of community involvement and leadership, including many non-partisan election activities but our work with high schools and elementary schools in organizing mock elections is a particularly rewarding experience."

A local band is looking for votes in a Battle of the Bands contest to help keep them in the top eight spots, which will guarantee them a chance to perform at a popular Detroit venue.
The band MATTO, that includes Adam Zalucki of Brighton and brothers Giacomo and Anthony Mattioli, 2010 and 2011 graduates of Hartland High School, are currently in an online contest sponsored by The Hard Rock Cafe.
With 250 bands in the running, the top 8 Michigan bands with the most popular vote will be chosen to perform live at the Hard Rock Cafe Detroit.
According the band's manager and father of the Mattioli brothers, Al Mattioli says the band is currently tied for seventh place.
The winner of the live performance will be judged and move on to the next round that will include winners of the 95 other Hard Rock locations and will be in the running for a grand prize to tour with a national act and $10,000 worth of equipment.
"It's a long shot," Al Mattioli said. "But really, right now it's just to get them the chance to play live down there in Detroit and try to get their music in front of people."
The band formed in 2007 while the three members were still in high school and started off playing covers, but hopes to find more venues to start playing more of their original music.
"They have their own fresh sound, but they have an underlying tone of classic rock," Mattioli said. "They have a distinct sound, they don't sound like anyone else."
MATTO released an album, Here It Comes of 14 songs this past December and found out about the contest after looking into having a CD release party at the Detroit Hard Rock location.
With both Mattioli brothers currently attending Michigan State University and Zalucki at Washtenaw Community College, Mattioli says his sons do travel back home more often for rehearsals and says they are ready for the opportunity to perform.
"They're ready for it and they are looking good," Mattioli said. "My goal right now is just to get them down there and we'll call it a win."
The first round of competition will take place on Jan. 28 and Feb. 11, according to the official contest page for Hard Rock Cafe.

The 40mm 2.8 stm seems to be costing £220 in the uk, thats $300!
Anyone know why this is?
Partly due to much lower sales tax in the US.
UK VAT (ie Sales Tax) is 20%.
Also if Canon overseas sales are priced in USD they may require further cushion if GBP falls vs USD - significant falls could happen in the current financial climate.
Anyway price differential still looks excessive!
Try say New York shop to see whether they will sell you one without local sales tax (because its an export).
Airmail would cost very little for such a tiny lens. Then add import duty and customs charges on the UK side - then VAT on everything so far. Could save a bit! Only worth it if lens has an international warranty.

The people of Far-Go have always been able to rely on a steady supply of food. The area's rich, fertile soil is perfect for growing crops, and the abundance of staple foodstuffs has given the folk here a leg up in making decent lives in a postapocalyptic world. But as this year's harvest nears, strange reports from the surrounding farms tell of a mountain that fell from the sky, crops vanishing overnight, and unexplained attacks by weird mold creatures. The people are panicking as terrors stalk their lands and food begins to grow scarce. If something isn't done soon, the residents of Far-Go will face death from rampaging plant monster s or death from starvation. Either way, not so good.
Famine in Far-Go is a D&D Gamma World adventure for five 3rd-level characters. By the adventure's end, the characters should be 6th level.
Famine in Far-Go is a D&D Gamma World adventure for five 3rd-level characters. By the adventure's end, the characters should be 6th level.
The mountain that fell from the sky was a damaged alien spacecraft that became caught in Gamma Terra's orbit one year ago and couldn't escape. Contaminated by russet mold spores, an insidious fungus that floats through the deep reaches of space, the ship eventually crashed near Far-Go. The survivors, little green aliens known as the visitors, spent the better part of the last year trying to repair their ship, without success. While they worked, the russet mold spread from the ship to contaminate the lands around.
The mold speeds the development of natural plants, causing them to grow to incredible size. As a result, the brown, powdery mold has become popular with local farmers as fertilizer for their crops. What the farmers don't realize is that plants fertilized by the mold gain an uncanny sentience. Resenting the murder of their offspring by hungry humanoids, the mutated plants pull themselves out of the ground, intent on delivering leafy justice to the fleshy ones. These vegepygmies want to stamp out Far-Go's people in revenge for what they call the Great Green Apocalypse.
Additionally, mutant chicken humanoids from the Automated Chicken Factory have begun stealing Far-Go's crops for food. Worse, they've gathered russet mold to spread on the crops around the factory, hoping to spur plant growth, and this has created more vegepygmies. Finally, an infestation of klickies is pilfering technology from the crashed spaceship, delaying the repair s and inadvertently causing the russet mold spores to spread further. Dark days lie ahead for the citizens of Far-Go if these threats go unchecked.

When the characters enter the area, read:
Townspeople shuffle down the street, each filthy and seemingly drunk. As they draw near, you see that they have no eyes, only sockets filled with fuzzy brown mold. Three one- eyed bats hover above the crowd, screeching with anger at your presence.

The further away in time Gamma Terra travels from the Big Mistake, the more varied and stranger the world becomes. Humanity's last vestiges turn to dust and blow away to make room for the new beings emerging from the blasted landscape, and the vacuum left by vanished species allows new species to proliferate. The following pages present a variety of new monsters, mutants, and robots, each offering new opportunities for adventurers to test themselves.
Gallus Gallus
Huh, this mutapork tastes like gallus gallus . . .
Long ago, the Ancients sought to solve world hunger by creating chicken meat from stem cells. The scientists based their studies in a sprawling factory and let a computer run the experiments to improve efficiency. Such foresight paid off, because the factory continued its work for many years after the Big Mistake.
The best intentions have a way of turning out badly, though, and after a few monkey slap-slaps, something went wrong with the machinery. Rather than producing only meat, the computer created mutant, humanoid chickens that were intelligent and fiercely independent. Called batch 5/13, the new race was horrified to discover what the world did to their kind. Appalled by the death and exploitation that were the fate of ordinary chickens, the gallus galluses vowed vengeance against humankind.
Gallus galluses are man-sized, bipedal chickens with arms ending in three-fingered hands rather than wings. Although many have feathers, most gallus galluses wear camouflage patterned clothing.

A team of storm-chasing scientists sampling rarefied air has found a world of bacteria and fungi floating about 30,000 feet above Earth. The findings, detailed Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, suggest that microbes have the potential to affect the weather.
Scientists have long studied airborne bacteria, but they typically do so from the ground, often trekking to mountain peaks to examine microbes in fresh snow. Beyond that, they don't know much about the number and diversity of floating microbes, said study coauthor Athanasios Nenes, an atmospheric scientist at Georgia Tech.

I love this dress!
This is the perfect dress for me! The fit is true to size, and the material is very nice - not cheap and thin. I love the style, the sleeve length, the pleating in the front, the length of the dress - everything!
