Resident Evil: The Virus Outbreak0 Reviews
Years after the Virus being cured, Umbrella Corp. designed a new element: Xonic. But it was unstable. It shattered and caused a massive explosion in the building. There by beginning the outbreak ...
I was at the bar when on the news it showed a report about an explosion at the Umbrella Corp. building. Then, I looked outside and saw a green fog. I looked at Leon. "Leon, whats with the green fog?" He looks at me and then the window. "I have no clue, but it has to be bad." So then, a guy walks into the bar, he looks shady and evil. He walks to me. "Hey...Kid, wanna buy some bones?" And I say. "Now why in the hell would I want to buy a bone? I'm not a dog." And then I turn back to the bartender. The merchant who asked me if I wanted to buy a bone left after two ours. I looked back outside. The fog was gone. I reached into my bag and pulled out my AK-47. "Leon, lets go." He turned to me and pulled out his pistol and loaded it. "Ok, where to?" I walked to the door and stopped. "The Umbrella Corp. building." And I push through the doors. Leon follows me out them to the Umbrella Corp. building. There wasn't much to look at except two floors were left. The other three were blown off by the explosion. We enter through the broken glass doors of the building. "Crap, be careful around that broken glass." Leon says as he steps on a glass and breaks it. Then, we hear a moan. We continue down the hallway and go into the library and the moan gets louder. Then, behind the desk is a zombie. I point my AK-47 at its head, but Leon beat me to the punch. He blew a hole right through it. Half of the brain was on the wall behind it. "Nice shooting." I say as I walk through the rows of shelves looking for someone or something. Then, I bump into an old friend...Clarke Benson. "Clarke. What are you doing here?" I said as I looked at him holding his two-barrel shotgun down. "Same for you. Anyway, I saw the explosion on TV, thought I might check it out." Then a zombie crossed behind us both. No way out. We turned back to back and blew their heads off. Blood and guts were everywhere. Then we heard Leon shout. "Guys! I think I found something you might wanna see!" Then we ran to Leon.
A/N - - sorry for shortness. this is my first post on ficwad. future chapters will be longer. please rate and review. may the quesadillas and other tasty mexican munchies be with you ^^.

It comes with convenient in-car accessories to enhance your movie enjoyment on the road. A car adaptor allows you to power your portable DVD player using the cigarette charger, while a mounting strap allows you to attach the player to your car headrest for passenger viewing. Setting up a portable player has never been easier.

Do like to run over holes in the road while driving?
...Chances are you answered no to that.
And if you did, you would have a problem with the state of Interstate 88 heading towards Sterling, IL.
In a 15 mile stretch - more than 40 potholes were counted - varying in size.
But, the Illinois DOT does have plans to fix it... Sometime.
The project to fix the stretch of road between the 80-88 interchange and the Whiteside County Line was put on a 6 year plan to fix in 2010.
But as of now, the estimated $13.3 million project hasn't started yet and there isn't a start date in sight yet.
And that just isn't good enough for people who have to travel that stretch of road every day.
Tanya Spicer works at a Subway just off I-88. She's been driving on it for three years now - and it's costing her a lot of money.
"I have gone through two sets of tires and I've worked here for three years."
Her co-worker, Gina Massingill, agrees:
"It's a bunch of potholes. The whole left side of the highway is awful. It's like a rivet. If you don't scoot over, you're gonna get thrown in one lane or another."
And the problem gets worse in the Winter, she explains, when snow and ice cover the potholes and cracks in the road.
"When you hit a pothole it really takes off. It's really dangerous when you're coming around a corner, hit the pothole and still get a little slide."

Narrow your search
Both stuffed with semimanual shooting options, the weather-sealed K-50 and the K-500 seem like great deals. But they just don't come through on the photo quality.
Weatherproof accessory protects your camera from the elements and lets you dive down to depths of about 33 feet without spending a bomb.
Accessory lets you mount a smartphone to your dSLR to be used in creative ways, like playing a video for the kiddos to make them smile for the camera.
This multipurpose motion and tracking device helps make being in your own videos even easier.
If all you can spend is $500 for a body and lens, you don't have many options, but you do have a few.
The Canon EOS Rebel T3 has me meditating on the state of the budget dSLR market.
The company adds video capture to its entry-level model.
Sony's newest dSLRs offer some minimal enhancements.
How about a camera that comes in red, white, and blue? Molly Wood and Brian Tong drool over the feature-packed Pentax K-x. Plus, a past caller dials in with a fabulous deal on one of our favorite point-and-shoot cameras.

12 September 2010
By clicking Submit, you accept the Adobe Terms of Use.
Today, if you're a frequent visitor to the Adobe Developer Connection (ADC), you may be noticing some major changes to our site.
Here's what's going on: We've just launched a new design with the goal of improving our site, making it easier for you to find the content you need. On top of that, the new ADC is also running on a new content management system, powered by Day Software, which is improving our ability to deliver our technical content and keep it up to date.
Almost ten years ago, a small team of editors launched the first ADC. We knew what we wanted to do: To provide a great place for people to find information that could make them successful with their web design and development projects.
At first, our goal was simple: Get as much content out into the world as possible to help our developers. We partnered with our developer community to create tutorials and technical articles—those experts were the builders of the Adobe Developer Connection. The ADC quickly became a platform for providing this information as well as a center for spotlighting experts in our developer community.
However, as the ADC has matured, we ran into an issue many of you have probably experienced: We had more content than we could manage. We lacked tools for evaluating, updating, and archiving a large repository of information, and this issue began to affect our users.
As the ADC grew, we on the ADC team worked to address user feedback by adding new features in an effort to modernize parts of the site. While we made some improvements and got positive responses, we knew that many of these changes were merely on the surface. It was time for a complete, top-to-bottom redesign.
We based our strategies for the current ADC redesign on feedback that you had been providing us through focus groups and surveys. Some of that feedback prompted us to make changes in the design and architecture of the site, and some of it pointed us toward making changes in how we manage the content itself.
Here are a few things you told us--and how your input influenced the ADC redesign.
You said
Our action
"Site is too complicated. I'm lost!"
Simplify the home view. Create a "new content" page for frequently returning visitors. Promote consistency through templates.
"Too much old content on the site."
Improve search results and content quality by updating or archiving old content. Build tools/workflows to maintain content freshness.
"Multiple pages are annoying."
Move to single-page articles
"I want code samples."
Integrate cookbooks more into the ADC.
"I can't find content."
Organize content by type and topic, with options to see more. Underlying tag-browsing function coming soon.
"I need to get started quickly."
Required products, sample files moved to top of tutorials. More visible getting started areas for products.
To power the new site, we're using Day Software's CQ5 as our content management system. Previously, the ADC was managed simply through a static HTML file structure. While this provided us maximum flexibility and freedom to make changes at will, it was not sustainable or scalable for a site the size of the ADC. We simply became over-burdened with managing the details of change requests and workflows.
With Day, we've been able to design and build reusable custom components to our own site specifications, and to assemble them into consistent templates that map to our page types. We are able to store supporting assets centrally, while maintaining the ability to publish changes quickly and easily. We can kick off editorial and production workflows without writing up complicated lists of instructions for adding and removing content. With this initial launch, I believe we are only scratching the surface of what the Day system can do, but we're seeing gigantic gains already for our team and for the ADC, and hope to more fully utilize its capabilities in future revs of the site.
As you try out the new site, you'll notice some changes. Here are some of the new features that we want you to try out:
We moved from a very long list of products to a simpler grouping of products for the main product families the ADC covers: Flash Platform, Creative Suite, and Enterprise products.
This new page provides a view for those of you who come back to that ADC frequently so that you can check out what's new across the entire site.
We're surfacing more content within the body of the page, and offering you an option dive deeper using the "More" links, as opposed to a separate navigational list.
Many pages are pulling in content from other areas such as forums, blogs, and Adobe Cookbooks, providing you with a broader base of content from which to find answers and inspiration.
So check out the new site, and let us know what you think by sending us some quick feedback. We do know that not everything will be perfect—as much as we would like it to be. As web developers and designers, you're familiar with the constant need for an influx of new ideas, user observation, and data for continued development.
We really want to know how you like the new templates, the navigational structure, and how you're finding content. We have some additional features to be launched very soon, so it's important that we get your feedback now so we can work changes into subsequent releases. We hope that you enjoy this new site, and use it to learn and get inspired as you are using Adobe technologies.

Predict an Election in seconds by using Back Link Data
Election campaigns of recent years have had a huge digital focus, as nominees look to the internet to drive their campaigns to the widest possible audiences.
In the UK today, voters are going to the polls for local elections, with much of the media's focus on the London Mayoral Candidacy.
Analysing the cumulative backlink data over the past month for the two leading candidates (The Conservative's Boris Johnson, and Labour's Ken Livingstone) election campaign websites shows an interesting tussle, with Boris Johnson's 'Back Boris' website taking the lead following a recent surge in new links to the site.
In the 2008 US Presidential Elections, a record-breaking 46 per cent of Americans used the internet to get news about the campaigns, and Barack Obama's focus on digital marketing has repeatedly been highlighted as one of the key factors that lead to his Presidential win.
With politicians the world over seeking to emulate Obama's digital campaign success, and using their campaign website as the cornerstone of their marketing, could a look at the backlink data for upcoming elections across the globe highlight potential wins prior to the election results being published?
Interestingly, the final poll figures in the London elections match the lead found in the backlink data, with Boris set to head for victory in the race to be re-elected as Mayor with a six point win.
Key upcoming elections across the globe this year include the French Presidential elections, as well as the US Presidential elections. Looking at backlink data again over the past 30 days highlights Francois Hollande's website taking a strong lead over Nicolas Sarkozy's campaign platform.
Likewise, in the United States, Barack Obama appears to be surging ahead of Mitt Romney in terms of the number of backlinks directed at their campaign websites.
Whilst many factors of course play a part in each election across the planet, a look at the backlink data is interesting, and highlights both the impact that the candidates are having across the web, but also the immensely hard work each campaign team must be putting into harnessing the internet as a key communications channel to the voters.
7 Responses to "Predict an Election in seconds by using Back Link Data"
In Germany the Pirate Party has become the 4rd strongest political party according to the newest surveys for the parliament vote in 2013. (Between 10-15%).
Looking a the cumulative Backling index it matches the surveys perfectly. Pirate Party has bevome stronger then the Communists and and Liberal Party and are nearly as strong as the Green Party wich holds place 3 in the survey rank.
So this method seems to be quite precise
Very interesting article!
If the number of links will reflect the extent of popularity of an political party, will it also work the other way around? Will the increase of amount of links positively influence the popularity of the party?
Altough the content of the campaign might also be of influence ofcourse. Given this data, it would be interesting to invest more in link gathering.
Hi, would be interesting to know if this method also works to check the popularity of companies or products. This would made it possible to find better investment strategies.
Best if there is not only a backlink but also a word index, so one could check how often a product or company is mentioned in the web to check if its popularity is growing or declining at the consumer side to make prognosis on their future return of investments.
Yep, you can. It didn't exactly make the FT at the time, but I know a few financial analysts are starting to look at this kind of signal ever since we launched a tool to help you track companies in this way, last year: http://blog.majesticseo.com/development/majestic-million/
Really interesting! Today's result of the French Presidential elections is another example that the Back Link Data clearly indicted the winner of the election.
Also in Italy a new political movement was born on the network and has established itself on the Internet by sharing information on social networks and blogs
Could you give some info on that new movement? Who is it and do they have a website?
thank you

The forbidden sex story between two tough cowboys and their hidden secret: one of them has a pussy, and he just can't keep it to himself! Filmed in the California desert with production values akin to a feature film, Buckback Mountain was nominated for XBIZ and GAYVN Awards. Mylo Deren, Lobo and Sean Steele co-star as Angel's trio of cowboys, and the film features an original score by Jer Ber Jones. Buck is a force of nature that can't be reckoned with!
There is a great mini documentry about the making of the movie on the extras section of the DVD.
Starring Buck Angel, Lobo, Mylo Deren, Sean Steele.

(Click here for a printer-friendly version of this lesson.)
GRADE LEVEL: Grades 9-12
TIME ALLOTMENT: Five 45-minute class periods
OVERVIEW: This lesson focuses on symbiosis and ecological relationships. Students will investigate the many ways that species that live in close proximity to each other might interact in an ecosystem, whether via competition or predation or through an ongoing symbiotic relationship such as mutualism, commensalism, or parasitism. Segments drawn from the NATURE episode The Secret Lives of Sharks and Rays and an online interactive featuring the malaria parasite will be used to provide specific examples of these interactions. The students will discover that all ongoing ecological relationships, even parasitic or predatory ones, have evolved over long periods of time and are integral to the maintenance of the balance and stability of an ecosystem.
The lesson then moves to a discussion of the ways that ecosystems can be thrown out of balance, often as a result of human action. A video segment showing the barbaric practices of the shark fin harvesting industry is used as a case in point of a human behavior that places a species in peril. Students will brainstorm ideas for restoring the relationship between sharks and humans to a healthy balance and will view an optimistic video segment featuring the ecotourism industry. As a culminating activity, students will select a case study for which to formulate an "Ecosystem Action Plan." They will research an ecosystem thrown out of balance by human action and will prepare a presentation for the class describing the problem and suggesting three possible actions that could be taken to rectify the imbalance.
SUBJECT MATTER: Biology/ Living Environment
- Define and describe the possible ecological relationships between species that coexist in an ecosystem
- Classify specific interspecies relationships as mutualistic, commensal, or parasitic
- Understand that ecological relationships evolved over time and are integral to maintaining the balance and stability of ecosystems
- Name factors that can throw ecosystems out of balance
- Describe human actions that have contributed to ecosystem imbalance and species decline
- Suggest remedial actions to ameliorate human-caused imbalances in ecological relationships
National Science Education Standards
CONTENT STANDARDS C: Life Science
All students should develop understanding of:
The interdependence of organisms
- Organisms both cooperate and compete in ecosystems. The interrelationships and interdependencies of these organisms may generate ecosystems that are stable for hundreds or thousands of years.
- Human beings live within the world's ecosystems. Increasingly, humans modify ecosystems as a result of population growth, technology, and consumption. Human destruction of habitats through direct harvesting, pollution, atmospheric changes, and other factors is threatening current global stability, and if not addressed, ecosystems will be irreversibly affected.
New York State Regents Core Curriculum Alignments
Living Environment Core Curriculum
Standard 1: Students will use mathematical analysis, scientific inquiry, and engineering design, as appropriate, to pose questions, seeks answers, and develop solutions.
Key Idea 1: The central purpose of scientific inquiry is to develop explanations of natural phenomena in a continuing and creative process.
Performance Indicator 1.1: Elaborate on basic scientific and personal explanations of natural phenomena, and develop extended visual models and mathematical formulations to represent one's thinking.
1.1a scientific explanations are built by combining evidence that can be observed with what people already know about the world.
Performance Indicator 1.2: Hone ideas through reasoning, library research, and discussion with others, including experts.
1.2a Inquiry involves asking questions and locating, interpreting, and processing information from a variety of sources.
1.2b Inquiry involves making judgments about the reliability of the source and relevance of information.
Standard 4: Students will understand and apply scientific concepts, principles, and theories pertaining to the physical setting and living environment and recognize the historical development of ideas in science.
Key Idea 1: Living things are both similar to and different from each other and from nonliving things.
Performance Indicator 1.1: Explain how diversity of populations within ecosystems relates to the stability of ecosystems.
1.1c In all environments, organisms compete for vital resources. The linked and changing interactions of populations and the environment compose the total ecosystem.
1.1d The interdependence of organisms in an established ecosystem often results in approximate stability over hundreds and thousands of years. For example, as one population increases, it is held in check by one or more environmental factors or another species.
1.1f Every population is linked, directly or indirectly, with many others in an ecosystem. Disruptions in the numbers and types of species and environmental changes can upset ecosystem stability.
Key Idea 6: Plants and animals depend on each other and their physical environment.
Performance Indicator 6.1: Explain factors that limit growth of individuals and populations.
6.1g Relationships between organisms may be negative, neutral, or positive. Some organisms may interact with one another in several ways. They may be in a producer/consumer, predator/prey, or parasite/host relationship or one organism may cause disease in, scavenge, or decompose another.
Performance Indicator 6.3: Explain how the living and nonliving environments change over time and respond to disturbances.
6.3c A stable ecosystem can be altered, either rapidly or slowly, through the activities of organisms (including humans), or through climatic changes or natural disasters. The altered ecosystem can usually recover through gradual changes back to a point of long-term stability.
Key Idea 7: Human decisions and activities have had a profound impact on the physical and living environment.
Performance Indicator 7.1 Describe the range of interrelationships of humans with the living and nonliving environment.
7.1a The Earth has finite resources; increasing human consumption of resources places stress on the natural processes that renew some resources and deplete those resources that cannot be renewed.
7.1c Human beings are part of the Earth's ecosystems. Human activities can, deliberately or inadvertently, alter the equilibrium in ecosystems. Humans modify ecosystems as a result of population growth, consumption, and technology. Human destruction of habitats through direct harvesting, pollution, atmospheric changes, and other factors is threatening current global stability, and if not addressed, ecosystems may be irreversibly affected.
Performance Indicator 7.3 Explain how individual choices and societal actions can contribute to improving the environment.

Not a proper blog entry, just this.... J. Doll, LOL.
The virtual world blogging community at Thumdar.com.
Hmm, my very first blog. Now, what to write..... I guess I ought to show some appreciation for a job well done. Thumdar is a true maestro of web page designing, and I would take my hat off to him if I wore, or even owned one
Let's see, and what else can I blabber about?? Ooh, There is a good option. I would like to confess that I am a recovering Thereaholic, and as much as hate to break the stupor, reality knocks with an iron fist and replying is essential. I just hope I shake this lethargy, because deep down, I don't want this spell to EVER break.

Much has been made of how some of the billions being spent on restoring natural water flows through the Everglades to Florida Bay could boost wading bird populations, sea grass cover and — down the line — the health of coral reefs.
But what about fish populations?
How would filtering the sheet flow south from Lake Okeechobee and increasing the volume of fresh water entering the Everglades estuary help economically-important gamefish like bass and snook?
That's what a group of scientists from Florida International University are trying to find out, and they need anglers' help.
FIU graduate student Jessica Lee, working under assistant professor Jennifer Rehage, recently launched the Coastal Angler Science Team (CAST), enlisting a small group of volunteer fishermen to help collect information about the movements of snook and bass found in the deep backcountry of the Upper Shark River in Everglades National Park.
During the past two years, Rehage, Lee and colleague Ross Boucek, a Ph.D student, have implanted microchips in 2,500 fish — mostly bass and snook — similar to those used by veterinarians to identify lost dogs and cats. They go back and electro-fish the river, stunning fish with a mild electrical current so they can collect and scan them with an electronic tag reader. If there's no tag, they insert one in the underbelly. If they score a hit, they record the location, time and date, and measure and weigh the fish, then let it go.
So far, the researchers have recaptured about 200 tagged fish, mostly bass. They figure they could raise that recapture rate if they gave the scanners to more anglers. With more recaptures, they can learn more about such things as how fish respond to drought, flood, pollution, cold, and other natural and manmade stressors. Then they will have a solid scientific baseline of information before the implementation of Everglades restoration projects such as bridging more of the Tamiami Trail and creating more stormwater treatment marshes between Lake Okeechobee and the park.
"It's to see how the fish community responds to restoration," Rehage said.
One of the first CAST volunteers is Upper Keys cookie salesman David Rose, who has been fishing the remote interior park waters near Flamingo — and keeping detailed logs of his experiences — since 1982. Rose wears a homemade abacus of beads on his belt to count his catches and releases.
"I've written down every single time I've been out here," Rose said, adding he once aspired to be an NFL statistician. "I want to know how many I caught and I want to see if I can beat that."
The FIU scientists gave him a tag reader, and he's been using it faithfully and recording data. On a recent outing, Rose and buddies Mike Dekker and Larry Frischman caught and released 15 snook and two bass in the Upper Shark River in a couple hours of throwing plastic worms and topwater baits. They scanned each fish, and two of the snook bore FIU tags.
"I swear he was a scientist in a previous life," Boucek said of Rose.
Rose said he doesn't need any special incentive to assist with the research.
"Why would you not want to know the population of the species out here," Rose said. "This is an incredible place, right in the middle of the Everglades. This is the only place in the world you can catch a snook, a redfish, a bass and a tarpon on the same lure."
Rose has given his angling records to the FIU group, and Rehage considers it a treasure trove.
"Science questions have been answered by those beads," she said, not joking. "The beads are an amazing 20-year-record that we can relate to hydrology."
Now if only the FIU group could find about 15-20 more citizen scientists like Rose and his crew and train them to scan for tagged fish.
"We're putting all this work into conservation and management and they are the ones who are committed to the ecosystem," Lee said. "This program gets them involved with that."

Today's Front Pages Analysis
Reporting on the Dow: Does what goes up must come down?
Is the glass half full or half empty?
Newspaper front pages couldn't decide today as they reported on a rally that added 889 points to the Dow.
"Optimism sends stock soaring," the San Francisco Chronicle said across its front page. "Dow takes stunning jump — 2nd-best ever," The Denver Post said.
The News & Observer of Raleigh, N.C., charted the upturn inside its nameplate. The Boston Globe explained how it happened: "Bargain hunters pounce amid signs of credit thaw."
Like many, the Orlando (Fla.) Sentinel charted the stock market's gain. But it said: "Dow soars — but hold applause." Explained The Gazette of Colorado Spring, Colo.: "Soaring Dow is Simply Another Day of Volatility."
Indeed, The News Journal of Wilmington, Del., said, "Rocketing Dow fails to spread much joy." "Wall Street on edge despite Dow's surge," The Atlanta Journal-Constitution noted.
The Wall Street Journal charted "Mixed Signals" — the Dow rebound and a decline in consumer confidence. The Indianapolis Star gave the stock market an up arrow but used a down arrow to describe consumers' mood.
The Lincoln (Neb.) Journal Star was one newspaper that was both optimistic and pessimistic: "Stocks surge 889 points," the lead headline said. "But analysts don't expect rally to last in this volatile market."
In advance of today's expected cut in the interest rate by the Fed, The Miami Herald said: "Cut in rate to take aim at pessimism."
Today's campaign news: The Lexington (Ky.) Herald-Leader described a "A whinnying ticket." Horse owners through the thoroughbred registry, it reports, are reserving such names as "Joe the Plumber" and "First Dude."
Speaking of Joe, he's on the campaign trail, reports The Cincinnati Enquirer, which printed a photo of Joe Wurzelbacher stumping for the McCain-Palin ticket in southwest Ohio.
Kate Kennedy is front-pages editor at the Newseum.

Google the phrase "Clinton firewall" and you will come up with an ever-lengthening list of scenarios that Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign has said will stop Barack Obama's candidacy. The New Hampshire primary, said her campaign, would be the firewall to end Obamamania. Then Super Tuesday was supposed to be the firewall. Then Texas. Now Pennsylvania and Indiana.Sirota posted an update of sorts, taking the Pennsylvania results into account, this morning on Daily Kos.
For four months, the political world has been hypnotized by this string-along game, not bothering to ask what this Clinton tactic really is. The "just wait until the next states" mantra has diverted our attention from the firewall's grounding in race and democracy. But now, with only a few months until the Democratic National Convention in Denver, the firewall's true composition is coming into focus. Whether Obama can overcome this barrier will likely decide who becomes the Democrats' presidential nominee.

There are no 2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac reviews. However, the following might be helpful:
User Reviews
The community thinks...
Party Central! by Jazzmin from Houston on 05/17/2012. Trim: 2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Limited 4.0L AWD, Owned 1 year.
Pros: The trims only list up to the 4.0 liter engine, but I have the 4.6 liter. I wanted the V-8 Adrenalin package, so I can tow a trailer eventually. I love the smaller bed. The V-8 has an automatic 6 speed, which actually gets better mpg than the V-6. There is no carpeting, all composite, with leather seating. I can go to the beach or mountains, and any sand or dirt gets vacuumed and then wipe it out. The bed has 3 built in coolers with drain plugs. The two coolers towards the back hold 2 six packs, and the larger cooler wine and champagne bottles. Head rests and seats are designed for long drives. Has the solidity like my F250 did, and the handling of my V-6 Camry.
Cons: Large bed cooler is up to the front, so you have to crawl into the bed to get to it. Very small glove compartment.
Overall review: I love this vehicle and wish they hadn't stopped making them. I knew they didn't get phenomenal fuel mileage, but I have no regrets in purchasing this vehicle. Quiet ride and the smaller bed makes it easier to park. I also appreciate the back up tone alert. This truck demands attention and always gets it.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- A Los Angeles woman is the winner of a contest by Papa John's to create a new specialty pizza.
The Louisville, Ky.-based pizza chain announced that Barbara Hyman's "cheesy chicken cordon bleu" is the winner of Papa John's Specialty Pizza Challenge. The company says the contest attracted more than 12,000 entries on Facebook. The entries were narrowed to three finalists and were placed on the menu in early August.
Hyman's creation accounted for 45 percent of the nearly 250,000 specialty pizzas sold by Papa John's in August. It is made with spinach Alfredo sauce, chicken, ham and four types of cheeses.
Hyman's winnings include a portion of her pizza's sales up to $10,000, free Papa John's pizza for life and an appearance in a TV ad.
The chicken cordon bleu pizza will be on the Papa John's menu for one year beginning Tuesday.

There was a competition between a team of blondes and a team of brunettes to see who could catch the most fish icefishing. Once the contest started, it was clear that the brunettes were going to win -- they kept pulling out fish after fish. Soon, the blondes got worried and sent over one of their team to see what the brunettes were doing differently. A few minutes later, the blonde comes running back.

In mid-September 2011, as part of AEI's Program on American Citizenship, we celebrated Constitution Day. In conjunction with that remembrance, we thought it appropriate to honor our longtime colleague and friend Walter Berns with a panel dedicated to discussing his scholarship on the Constitution and the American regime it supports.
The European Union's Brussels summit on December 8-9 is its latest, most urgent attempt to calm the bond markets, save the euro, and create firmer mechanisms that promise to ensure long-term fiscal discipline among eurozone nations.
The inherent conflict of science and politics will be the subject of the second-annual "Bloody Crossroads" conference at AEI.
The Regulatory Accountability Act is an effort to channel the discretion and improve the performance of the modern administrative state.
At this AEI book forum, Jeffrey Friedman will present his book's arguments, followed by comments from AEI's Peter Wallison and Alex Pollock and a general discussion.
Our constitutional order is becoming markedly less competitive--making government less responsive and leaving critical sectors of our society less dynamic and free. To understand the sources of this trend and its importance, we need first to understand the nature, advantages, and challenges of competition itself.
At this event, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia will give opening remarks, and Leon R. Kass (Madden-Jewett Chair, AEI), Jeremy A. Rabkin (Professor, George Mason University School of Law), and Christopher Demuth (D.C. Searle Senior Fellow, AEI) will provide further insight into the work of Walter Berns.

If you like to shop at Amazon and get free shipping (without signing up for Prime), your orders of items sold or fulfilled by Amazon.com itself (as opposed to third-party sellers doing business there) must be $25 or more.

Like the LP640, the Lotus Exige S didn't catch anyone by surprise either. A supercharged evolution of the Exige and the Elise, if the car wasn't quite in supercar territory before, it certainly is now. Although 220bhp may not sound like much, those few horses are called upon to move less than one ton of car. If you are looking for the ultimate track-day or weekend toy at an almost affordable price then the Exige S may be just what you are looking for. For the more hardcore enthusiast who doesn't mind trailering the car to the track, Lotuse also showed the Exige Sport Cup. Stripping the weight down to 1800lbs and bumping horsepower up to 252, the Sport Cup may be the ultimate thrill ride.
Ferrari proudly unveiled the 599 GTB Fiorano to the North American Market. The 599 is considered a front-engine Ferrari by most, but technically it is mid-engine having the block set behind the front axle line. This gives the incredible balance and the ability to change directions very quickly. The 599 is equipped with Ferrari's most powerful V12 to date cranking out 620hp.
The sunny Southern California weather was perfect for the unveiling of Porsches latest iteration of the Targa. This 911 Targa is obviously based on the 997 chassis and looks to be as solid as the last version. Equipped with a glass roof that slides under the rear window the driver can enjoy the open air sensation of a convertible without having to deal with the noise, reduced chassis rigidity and buffeting found in most convertibles. Porsche also had the new 911 GT3 and Turbo on display. They chose to display both cars side by side which was an interesting choice. The jury is still out on which is the most popular at the show. The true enthusiast will go for the light-weight, Alcantera clad interior, normally aspirated detuned race car that is the GT3, while those more content with covering miles at an extremely high rate of speed while maintaining some level of comfort prefer the 911 Turbo.
