The Rosy RoomThis is a blog to appease my love of beautiful homes and weddings. It might get tangled in with the occasional beautiful garden, too... I tend to favour eco-friendly, organic and/or vintage themes, but that's not exclusive either. I'm neither an interior designer nor wedding planner, and I'm not close to getting married or owning a house let alone building one, but dreaming about these things and enjoying their aesthetic in collected pictures puts a smile on my face. :) I try to source images whenever I can find one, but If you own an image which hasn't got a source and want it put there, or for me to take the image down, I'm happy to oblige just send a message to the Ask Box.

New Orleans — Official postgame quotes following the Jazz's 96-85 loss to the Hornets on Friday.
Jazz Head Coach Tyrone Corbin:
(On the game)
It's a tough loss. We had opportunities to win the ball game and get out of here. We told them at halftime that you can't let this team hang around. They get close to the end and they have guys that are capable of making shots, and that's what happened. (Eric) Gordon took over and made three big plays in a row. You have to give them credit. They played hard, which we thought they would, and we just didn't respond."
(On the play of Eric Gordon)
It was just one on one. He made big shots. He is what he is. He is a good one on one player. We tried to trap him early on, but they did a good job of coming back to him. He held the ball in his hands when we tried to throw him off a little bit by attacking him. He made some plays for them, and we just didn't respond."
Jazz Guard Gordon Hayward:
(On Trying to stop Eric Gordon)
We couldn't stop Eric tonight, he's a very talented player and he made some plays. He did a good job of attacking the basket and we made him take some difficult shots and he was able to knock them down. He's a tough player to guard, I've played him in high school and in the summer; he's just tough to guard. It was just a difficult night overall. We battled and played hard, we just didn't have enough down the stretch. We had a great win last night, but a tough loss tonight."
Jazz Forward Paul Millsap:
(On Tonight's Loss)
This is a big loss for us tonight. This was a game we needed and one we were suppose to win. Eric played real well tonight; he had an awesome game. He set the tone for them and we just couldn't stop him. They hit some big shots down the stretch and we didn't. We have to put this game behind us and get ready for Memphis tomorrow night."
Hornets Head Coach Monty Williams:
(On the win): "I think we had nine turnovers in the first half and only five in the second half, which is pretty good for us for a half. I thought our defense, we held them to 19 in the second quarter and 15 in the fourth and that just spoke to our effort that our guys can give on any given night. The execution wasn't always great, but I thought our guys fought. Even when I thought we were getting a bit of a bad whistle for a minute, in my opinion, but Eric, from the fourth, I don't know if he went for eight or 10 (points) straight, but it was eight or 10 big points. Then, I thought he got a little tired. He turned the one ball over with Paul Millsap all over him, but our guys keep fighting. We're getting contributions from everybody. I thought Chris Kaman was efficient tonight. Jason (Smith) was his normal self. Greivis (Vasquez) is getting better at running the team, and Marco's (Belinelli) selfless play really helps us. He plays the one, the two and the three, but overall I thought it was a great team win."
(On the team's confidence level with its recent run of success this month): "What goes into winning an NBA game, people will never know. You guys see what we go through every day, and to come out with a win, it has to build confidence. At the same time, you look at the overall record, and it keeps me up at night. I know it does the same for our players, but as for this month, we just want to keep it going. We just want to continue to compete and play the game the right way. We want to give our fans something to be excited about going into the summer."
Hornets Guard Eric Gordon
(On his scoring spurt down the stretch): "I love those situations. That's what I'm here for, to help the team win, and that's what I try to do. I'm looking forward to the rest of these games this season and see what can happen for me being here in the future."
(On the Hornets' defense in the second half): "We stayed in control. The only problem we were having was rebounding. Scoring, we have the individual guys who can do that, so as long as I score in the fourth quarter and try to help the team out because our team played well offensively and defensively."
Hornets Center Chris Kaman
(On the win): "It feels good to keep winning. We have two more home games to finish the season strong. That's what we are looking forward to right now and that's our goal, before we go on the road."
(On the second half finish): "Eric Gordon is what it is. Seriously, Eric played a heck of a game tonight. Especially in the fourth quarter, he really put on a show for the fans and really hustled for that win. It's a team effort. He does his part. We do our part rebounding and blocking shots. I thought we did a good job getting defensive stops."
(On the play of Paul Millsap and Al Jefferson): "They're both great players in this league. Al Jefferson has been having a good year and Millsap is exceptional. The hard part was they played him at the three spot. We'd put a smaller guy on him and they really did a good job of posting him up. They'd post him up against a guard and that made it tough."

Dr. Theodor Suess Geisel
For most of my adult life I have been collecting quotes. I may be sitting at lunch with a friend or listening to a formal lecture or reading a book or even a billboard and a quote jumps out and grabs me around the mind. Here are a few that recently captured my attention on the topic of imagination:

VFCC offers on its sprawling park-like campus, as well as online, 67 undergraduate and seven graduate degrees in the Arts, the Sciences and the Professions.

How do you tell the story of a silent era? Historians usually work from documents and archives, but huge swaths of history unfolded with barely any written records surviving at all. This is the problem that Boston College historian Robin Fleming faced in looking at the first centuries of British life after Roman rule, an era of poverty, illiteracy, and tumult.
Last month, Fleming became the first-ever Boston College scholar to receive a MacArthur fellowship—the so-called genius grant—for her innovative illumination of a nearly impenetrable time. Her solution to the problem: Rather than relying on the written evidence, which amounts to scattered accounts of the exploits of kings and bishops, she trains a historian's eye on what archeologists are turning up. She analyzes reports from digs, pores over photographs, and travels to examine excavated objects herself, then weaves the story of a society from the things people left behind.

The Kindle Fire is actually pretty cool. I wouldn't give up my iPad for it though, that's for sure.
There still havn't been any actual numbers to how many kindle's have been sold. Do these people just bring these statistics out of their ***?
I've already purchased 2 Kindle Fire's for Christmas presents and will likely pick up 1 more before the big day.
When you can buy 3 Kindle Fire's to 1 Apple iPad.... It just seems logical.
Is this why there's a rumored 7" iPad coming in 2012? Either way, competition and choices are good.
He was wrong on both points.
honestly i think the new asus eee transformer prime is the best android for 2011. I'm selling my iPad for the prime for school next year
Just like the iPhone before Android came out. The iPad had its fun since it was first, but now those tides are changing.
sold my ipad 2 after i got a kindle fire, and am a very happy camper. only 5 gigs of storage, but i didn't even use that much on my ipad.
and never have got a ton of apps. anyway for every 1 good app theirs 100 useless ones. this goes for both android market and the app store. for the price you can't beat it.
Yes but still lumping all manufacturers of android tablets into one statistic compared to one manufacturer, Apple, doesn't make any sense. Just because they are tablets and run android doesn't make them all comparable especially when the Kindle Fire was declared not comparable to the iPad by Amazons own CEO. He called it a low cost media centric streaming device, with a small amount of flash storage which helped to allow Amazon to sell it so cheap. He also said that Amazon was a company used to low margins and that the real profit would be generated by selling/renting content to Kindle Fire owners. So just because a tablet runs android shouldn't make them all comparable to make up BS statistics about marketshare, why not let each manufacturer stand on it's own? Simple because a number like 33% combined looks better than the 4-5% of each manufacturer standing alone.

When The Going Gets Tough...
Published August 31, 2010 12:00
NEW YORK, NY, USA - It looked like trouble for Maria Sharapova as Jarmila Groth overpowered her in the first set, but one of the biggest fighters out there had come equipped, got a grip and buckled down for a 46 63 61 first round win.
Sharapova, the No.14 seed, was facing one of the most improved players on the circuit - Groth had reached the fourth round of the last two majors and has looked fitter than ever, and won the battle of big groundstrokers in the first set.
Groth had never beaten a Top 20 player before, though, going 0-15, and winning only two sets in those 15 matches. Sharapova seemed to sense that and her confidence only grew, as she defied her previous results after losing the first set at a Grand Slam - she was 88-5 after winning the first set, 9-21 after losing it - and beat the hard-hitting, Slovak-born Australian handily in three.
"She really swung and didn't give me much time to do anything out there," Sharapova said of the first set. "Against a player like that, who plays the 1-2 punch type of tennis, it's quite difficult to get a rhythm in the beginning, but I just hung in there. I knew it wasn't over. I knew I still had my chances."
Sharapova wasn't the only former US Open champion to go three sets on a muggy Tuesday, as No.11 seed Svetlana Kuznetsova beat Kimiko Date Krumm, 62 46 61. The former world No.4 turns 40 in a month but is still a force to be reckoned with, a few weeks ago breaking back into the Top 50.
Earlier in the day, No.4 seed Jelena Jankovic and former phenom Mirjana Lucic, a qualifier here, set up a second round clash. Read more here.
Other notable seeded winners were No.7 seed Vera Zvonareva, No.9 seed Agnieszka Radwanska and No.15 seed Yanina Wickmayer. The first set of upsets took place as well, with No.8 seed Li Na, No.17 seed Nadia Petrova, No.26 seed Lucie Safarova and No.30 seed Yaroslava Shvedova all going down on Day 2. Li was ousted by Kateryna Bondarenko, a quarterfinalist here last year, 26 64 62; Petrova was edged by Andrea Petkovic in a match between the No.1 and No.4 ace leaders so far this year, 62 46 76(4).
In the final match of the night, No.1 seed Caroline Wozniacki got past American wildcard Chelsey Gullickson in a match that started just before midnight, scoring a 61 61 win. It was Wozniacki's 14th straight win in the first round of a major, her only loss at this stage coming in her very first major at the French Open in 2007 (to the now-retired Nathalie Dechy in three sets).

There is an American proverb that says: "It doesn't work to leap a twenty-foot chasm in two ten-foot jumps." Everyday the SCI Institute is engaged in far reaching scientific computing and imaging research in which we attempt to leap the twenty-foot chasm. This leap is not possible without the help we receive from our donors. Federal research funds have become more restricted and more risk adverse, so that only the ten-foot jump is possible. The SCI Institute needs support from its donors to help us in leaping the chasm required to bring far reaching advances to all the fields touched by scientific computing and imaging.

I do get a lot of emotional support from my family, but financially we are struggling.
Swaziland has the highest HIV prevalence in the world among adults. Disturbingly, more than 80 percent of TB patients are also co-infected with HIV. Life expectancy has halved within two decades, plummeting from 60 to just 31 years. People are dying in large numbers and tuberculosis is currently the main cause of mortality among adults. As a result, many children are being made orphans and the adult workforce is declining.

However, radiation fears gripped the series, and it was only after various studies commissioned by Dorna and the FIM - the sport's commercial rights' holder and governing body respectively – proved conclusively that the region was safe and the event was given the all-clear. Still, until a few weeks ago certain riders threatened a boycott of the race, but that is now resolved, and a full grid decamped at Motegi earlier this week.
The Honda-owned motorsport complex lies in a natural bowl in an area of vast beauty situated approximately 100 kilometres from Tokyo, and effectively consists of two separate circuits – an oval designed in the American style for Indycar racing, and a 4,801-kilometre road course – and it is the latter which hosts this weekend's championship round.
This rather fiddly clockwise course comprises 14 corners (6L/8R) connected by a series of medium-speed straights. Very much a stop-go circuit, its layout includes three full hairpins plus the 150° V Corner, while the need to accommodate grandstands looking over both circuits mean spectators are sat far back from the action. As always in Japan, the weather is likely to be capricious.
PUMA's partner team Ducati approaches the 15th round (of 18) in the 2011 MotoGP World Championship with renewed confidence, for the Italian team has a strong record at Motegi, having won here four times plus taken an additional podium.
Nine-time world champion Valentino Rossi has posted six career podium finishes at the track, including third place in 2010, although Nicky Hayden, champion in 2006, doesn't count Motegi amongst his favorites.
"I had a nice race last year at Motegi, despite having a painful shoulder," remembers Valentino. "I had a good duel with (Jorge) Lorenzo, and finished on the podium. The Ducati won last year, and has also gone well here in the past, so we'll see if we can do any better than at recent races. It's true that we're having to work very hard, but we always approach every Grand Prix with the goal of doing better."
American Nicky prefers flowing circuits, but is still hoping for a good result on Sunday, particularly as he is extremely popular amongst the country's motorcycling fans – of which there are, literally, millions.
"I've got a lot of fans in Japan, and there are a lot of people who love motorcycles. It would be nice to put on a good show for them, as they've certainly had a hard time this year. Hopefully we can have a good race. It's great to see the team putting in so much effort, and although we're not seeing immediate results, we're learning a lot and getting a bunch of data that's going to be a big help in the long term."
Going into this race, Honda's Casey Stoner has 284 points to the 240 of Yamaha rider Lorenzo, with Valentino sixth on 139, followed by Nicky on 114.
The 24-lap race starts at 15:00 local time (06:00 GMT), with Saturday's qualifying hour commencing at 13:55 (04:55 GMT). After this race the series heads for the Australian Grand Prix on Phillip Island on 16th October, followed by Malaysia's round a week later.

Everything important happens at night,
This isn't a joke.
When I say so, you're gonna raise up your hands.
For years, your back to me made a continent.
I roamed it. Like wading the desert after dark.
Nice and slow. Now higher.
Far away voices
Reached me as indecipherable sound, sped past.
And when I say so, one at a time,
You're gonna empty your pockets.
You were a world, do you understand?
You—did I stutter?—
All night wind raced the plains. I lived there
Alone, not wanting to leave.
You. And you.
Sometimes, I want to remind you of something.
Don't fool with me. You'll get hurt.
I made you.
Put down your arms.
This is over.

By Julien Pretot
LE GRAND BORNAND, France (Reuters) - The brutal reality of defeat became clear to twice Tour de France champion Alberto Contador and his Saxo-Tinkoff team on Thursday night after the Spaniard again lost time to race leader Chris Froome.
"We had a meeting all together yesterday after the stage and we had to admit that there was nothing we could do, even if we were to jump on an opportunity," Saxo-Tinkoff sports director Philippe Mauduit told Reuters.
"And second place in Paris is not something anyone can dream of."
Contador had marked out Friday's 19th stage, with two out-of-category climbs and two first-category ascents, thinking his instincts and tactical nous would give him a chance to overthrow Briton Froome.
However, Thursday's stage to l'Alpe d'Huez had only served to show the 2007 and 2009 Tour winner there was little he could do to knock Froome off his perch after the Team Sky rider extended his lead to 5:11 despite clearly struggling on the second climb up the mountain.
So the race objectives changed.
"(Today) we raced to the team classification," Contador conceded on Friday shortly after crossing the finish line in a group of favorites which included Froome.
Speaking to reporters by the team bus, Mauduit explained: "We did not manage to destabilize Froome so as the Tour goes, you take what you can and the team classification is a good thing, it reinforces the team spirit and it is something the riders will remember.
"Alberto came here to win, not to be second, third, fifth or 10th, it has no importance to him. It does not have the same value when you have already won several grand Tours."
The rest of Saxo-Tinkoff, however, can settle for other honors and they lead the team standings by 3:39 with two stages left.
"You have to be realistic and admit the reality of the moment," said Mauduit, who pointed out that while Saxo-Tinkoff had been racing for the title, others appeared to be only targeting a podium finish in Paris.
"I don't want to complain about our rivals, but it became clear as early as the Pyrenees (after one week) that they were racing for a place on the podium, not more," the Frenchman said.

Obama is the ONLY one responsible for having no TSA Director
I came upon this summation of Obama's TSA failure and the Washington Post & Liberal outlets like McClatchy & MSNBC trying to blame Republicans for the President's failed leadership and found this blog to be so succinctly correct that I'm simply sharing this with you from
Obama Waited 8 Months To Appoint New TSA Head
The story the media would like us to believe (see Washington Post, etc.) is that, it's all Jim DeMint's fault there isn't a new head at the TSA right now. But it's a bit more complex than that. To start with, Obama didn't appoint a potential replacement until September. Now, suddenly there's a rush? And other reports insist it wouldn't make much difference anyway, as the acting team is far more directly experienced for now. Also note, even the funny dummies at DU (
claim Error Southers has abused his authority wherever he's been.
Still, as Heritage pointed out (
it's all about unionization in the end. Southers won't agree to retain the existing policy to keep the TSA non-union. Like a good Democrat, perhaps, it's always better to have government workers more concerned with protecting their jobs, than the land and people of the US. Now the story line is to read, Republicans are politicizing the issue. No, Democrats did that by making it a unionization issue to start with. All Southers has to do is agree that a non-union approach is best in the TSA's case. But he won't.
WASHINGTON -- An attempt to blow up a trans-Atlantic flight from Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas Day would be all-consuming for the administrator of the Transportation Security Administration - if there was one.
The post remains vacant because Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., has held up President Barack Obama's nominee in opposition to the prospect of TSA workers joining a labor union.
Meanwhile, Rep. John Mica, R-Fla., said in a statement that the TSA had grown lost and bloated in bureaucracy and called for a review.
Mica also said Congress "must change the process by which TSA administrators serve. There has been no TSA administrator for nearly a year and the next one will be the fifth in eight years. Running a security agency with a revolving door is a recipe for failure."
This all all about Obama wanting to unionize the TSA at the expense of American safety. If Obama was more concerned about security than politics, he would have appointed a Director who's acceptable to both parties. More prrof that Obama is more concerned with politics than security is his appointment of hyper-partisan and Janet Napolitano as Secretary of Homeland Security.
Remember back in March, Homeland Security Director Janet Napolitano was bragging that she was doing a better job screening airplanes for terrorists than Bush. Now she has "The Crotch Bomber."
Tomorrow: Reasons why Janet Napolitano is just another incompetent "bad hire" by Obama.

NEW YORK (AP) - New Yorkers buying a health plan on the state's new insurance exchange should read the fine print if they're interested in seeing some of the city's top doctors.
Not all are participating in the new plans created by the Affordable Care Act.
As of this week, not one of the plans for sale on New York's health benefit exchange would cover treatment at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, one of the world's largest and most respected cancer hospitals.
Other premier city hospitals are in the networks of only a handful of plans.
The narrower networks are a result of insurers trying to control costs and hospitals being cautious about agreeing to take untested insurance products.
Negotiations between several hospitals and insurers were ongoing and it is possible some networks will grow.

Vogue - August 1964
Stretched Canvas Print

Item #: 12300307906A
Size and print type
Ships in 2-3 days
Published August 15, 1964
This portrait of the always-fashionable Audrey Hepburn, wearing an Edwardian bowler of brushed Melusine by Hubert de Givenchy, appeared in the August 15, 1964, Vogue. Although hats can beautifully emphasize, and even exaggerate, one's features—as seen here—they quickly fell out of fashion during this time. Photograph by Cecil Beaton.
Photo licensed from the Condé Nast Collection, home of The New Yorker, Vogue, Vanity Fair and other popular brands. Find this and other artwork at the Condé Nast Collection.
The stretched canvas print is the result of sophisticated digital printing technology in which the image is printed directly onto an artist-grade, 100% cotton canvas. The canvas is then expertly stretched around 1.5" wooden bars and carefully finished with hand-painted edges. An acrylic coating protects the stunning giclée print from dust, moisture and fading.

Was the plastic plant in the plastic pot actually, um, plastic pot?
When Richard Poptelariter of Howland stopped at the Shell gas station on the corner of Western Reserve Road and South Avenue, he observed what he believed was a plastic marijuana plant next to the pump.
"I have a 4-year-old daughter," the outraged Poptelariter said. "I don't want my daughters growing up to see marijuana."
Enter Ellen Speicher, assistant horticulture director at Fellows Riverside Gardens. She took a look at one of the plastic leaves and said it's highly unlikely the leaf is marijuana.
The jagged leaves of five and six and seven on the plastic plants actually resembled leaves from a coral bark Japanese maple leaf.
"Often, when you see these at a gas station, they're trying to make it look like an ivy," Speicher said. "It doesn't really look that much like marijuana. Marijuana actually is larger, and it has more dissection on the edges of the leaf."
"I think they're trying to mimic a Japanese maple," she added.
She's right.
A spokesperson for Truck World Inc., one of several companies that own Shell gas stations throughout the nation, said these fire-retardant Japanese maple trees were installed there several years ago to prevent customers from backing into the gas pumps. "They act as a bumper guard."
Speicher said, however, that this isn't the first time she's dealt with this situation because some Japanese maple leaves tend to closely resemble marijuana.
She said the janitor at a previous job she worked came across a leaf on the break-room floor that he also believed was marijuana.
"It was a Japanese maple leaf," she said.
Boardman police Sgt. Michael Hughes took a ride to examine the fire-friendly plants Friday morning to see for himself and determined it was not marijuana. But he can see why it could be mistaken for marijuana.
"Ninety-nine percent of the time, [marijuana] is a seven-leaf plant," Hughes said. "Believe me, [the fake plants] look just like marijuana plants, but there has to be seven [stems]," Hughes said.
He said even if the plants were fake marijuana, police couldn't take any action because there's no law against such fake greenery.
"But they did look like marijuana plants," Poptelariter said after he was informed of the actual nature of the plastic plants.
Really!!!! Some people need to get a life,,,,,,
The photo in the Vindicator looks nothing like a marijuana plant.It definetly looks like a type of maple.Richard needs to better educate himself or he'll be blindfolding his daughters eyes when they're driving down the streets because he doesn't want her to see the 40 foot tall pot trees all around them.
Sounds like some momma's boy just wanted to get his name in the paper. How can you get upset over a plastic plant??
I have been going to that station for years and know exactly the PLASTIC plant he's talking about. How stupid do you have to be to think that first! And second, yeah get a life. Your daughter seeing a fake pot leaf is the least of your worries. And any way how could she possibly know at that age what the heck it's supposed to look like.
He was "outraged," fortunately the service station does have restrooms.
If the Roseanne Rosanadana character was still on Saturday Night Live, this guy could take the place of irate listener Richard Fader, from Fort Lee, NJ. Maybe he should call Mr. Obvious on the Bob & Tom show to share his comedic ignorance with a wider audience!
I have a 4-year-old daughter," the outraged Poptelariter said. "I don't want my daughters growing up to see marijuana
Go change your panties jackass.
If a little pot is the worst thing your kid ever sees you'll be very fortunate
This guy sounds like a trouble making creep.
You can bet he's the neighborhood freak!
^^^^Couldn't have said it any better^^^^^.
Amen !
Hey HellaBB, this has nothing to do with political parties. I read the same article and thought WOW and I am republican. There is nothing wrong with clinging to our bibles and guns. Imagine if no one had faith. And as far as our guns...it is our constitutional right. This is a country created by geniuses and ran by idiots.
The comments on here are a lot funnier than the article! LMBO!
What a jackass. This is the kind of person who needs to be ignored by intelligent members of society... I hope his daughter grows up to be smarter than him. She's got one hell of a genetic hurdle to overcome, but I think she can do it.
For a minute I thought this was a Hagan initiative. Making the oil companies greener and promoting his weed.
I saw the article in the Vindy and thought it was a joke to fill in for an otherwise slow news day.
People can't really be that excited about a plant that resembles maryjane, can they?
Yeah, he overreacted, but give the guy a break. I totally understand getting upset by the extreme tolerance and subtle promotion of marijuana in today's culture. I wish more people did.
ZTOM, POT/Marijuana is used for many thing, Aids patience, cancer patience, not for Pain But so they will eat, All Pot Does is Makes you Relax, and Makes you want to eat. That is all it does nothing more, Its used for glacoma , Back Pain although i dont see it helping with Pain.. I see no Problem Legilizing it at All. And No I dont Smoke Pot or Take Drugs, My Brother Died Of Brain Cancer, It Helped Him To Eat & Sleep., If i had My Chose Id Rather see People Smoke Pot Then Drink And Go out and Kill someone. Ive Been Hit By 2 Drunk Drivers In Warren., The 2nd Hit was a Bad One, but at least im alive to talk about it. But the Guy at the Gas Station is a ignorant Fool.
How annoying of a person can you be? Even if they were fake pot plants, what of it. Did this guy want them to be arrested for possession of plastic?
You can't fix stupid thats for sure. Maybe this jerk should take a walk down Hillman street or Avondale and observe some real crime he can report. As stated above "Get a Life"
This guy sounds like he is a revenue officer for the IRS.....in other words he needs to get a life!!!!!!
Probably works downtown with the other IRS losers.
Big man with nothing to do...
I usually only encounter people like this in works of fiction.
Ah...I love stupidity. All he had to do was drive away and his daughter would have no idea what it was. Now because he made such an issue about it, she now knows about Marijuana. Idiot.
I'm sure he was just as outraged about the numerous, Beer and Alcohol banners too....
Richard Poptelariter has a plastic brain. What an idiot! I pity his daughter.
Maybe he was "high" and couldn't tell the difference between plastic and real? LOL!

On Tuesday, hockey fans around the world learned that Detroit Red Wings' Nicklas Lidstrom and Carolina Hurricanes' Eric Staal had been chosen as captains for the upcoming NHL All-Star game.
Now the fun starts.
While both players will undoubtedly say their prime objective is to win the game, it will be extremely interesting to see how both men decide to choose their respective teams.
Under the new All-Star format, many questions arise. Should you choose a teammate with your NHL club first? Do you snag the hottest goalie and work your way out? Or perhaps you follow the tried-and-true method of picking the best player available first overall?
The situation becomes even more difficult for Staal as his loyalties will be severely tested. Younger brother Marc is scheduled to make his All-Star debut in Raleigh. While the younger Staal is unquestionably one of the best shutdown defenders in the game today, it is an All-Star game after all and it's rare that it turns into a defensive duel.
The 'Canes captain will face an even greater challenge when you take into account that with the contest occurring in North Carolina, he will undoubtedly feel pressured to choose his teammate Cam Ward early in the process to appease the locals. However with fellow netminders Tim Thomas, Marc-Andre Fleury, Carey Price, Henrik Lundqvist and Jonas Hiller all still on the board and all with better overall numbers, the choice of Ward could easily be questioned.
While Lidstrom has the advantage of being the only Red Wing named to the team, the future Hall of Famer will have some serious thinking to do if he decides to select a fellow Swede first overall.
There are no fewer than six players of Swedish descent for Lidstrom to choose from, however if the six-time Norris Trophy winner decides to make his inaugural decision based upon nationality, than he can likely narrow his first choice overall down to two players: Daniel and Henrik Sedin. The question that then presents itself is this: who goes first?
While the Sedin twins have always been seen as a package deal, for the first time in their adult careers, they may end up on separate teams. Should Lidstrom choose defending Hart Trophy winner Henrik first, what would be stopping Staal from choosing Daniel second? Would Lidstrom then have to negotiate a deal to keep the brothers together? Or would we get to see the sibling rivalry play out on the ice for the very first time?
If you thought Lidstrom would have problems choosing between his Tre Kronor running mates, take into consideration that nine of the All-Stars selected to participate joined Staal in celebrating an Olympic gold medal victory for Canada this past February in Vancouver.
Speaking of awards, Lidstrom and Staal have their choice amongst six different Art Ross recipients, three separate Hart Trophy winners, five Rocket Richard trophy awardees, four players who have earned the Conn Smythe trophy (Lidstrom not included) and three rookies of the year.
You could easily argue that the whole process could be avoided by simply choosing the best available talent, and without too much argument you could say that the best is Sidney Crosby. Unfortunately for Lidstrom and Staal, as well as the fans, 'Sid the Kid' may be forced to take a pass on the game due to lingering concussion issues, thus adding yet another degree of difficulty in making the decision.
So of course their attention would turn towards the next best available player, but once again, who would that be?
The aforementioned Henrik Sedin was chosen as the NHL's most outstanding player last season, however he currently trails Crosby as well as Tampa Bay Lightning snipers Steven Stamkos and Martin St. Louis and brother Daniel in the NHL points race.
So Stamkos is the obvious choice right? He tied Crosby for the NHL's goal-scoring lead last year and currently leads the Rocket Richard race this season. Well not so fast, as there's a certain two-time Hart Trophy recipient who plies his trade in Washington and who is a pretty skilled player in his own right. While Alex Ovechkin might not be enjoying the best season of his illustrious career, he is the type of player that flourishes in the All-Star environment and has the star power to get a crowd behind his team very quickly.
So where do your loyalties lie?

Yesterday was a good day for exploring.
We shared aloud our experiences of observing the landscape after reading the "Streets" chapter from George's Perec's Species of Spaces and excerpts from David Byrne's Bicycle Diaries, Rebecca Solnit's Wanderlust, and John Stilgoe's Outside Lies Magic.
Everyone made varied, excellent observations, ranging from people-watching in Peninsula Park to tracking the dissipated light on the sidewalk in Northwest Portland, to one student's search for a place completely absent of all typography. (Spoiler: he couldn't find one in the city.)
I gave the class a walking tour of the remnants of South Portland, the historic neighborhood that existed on the site of PSU before urban renewal and the highway arrived. We crossed the highway and talked about the South Auditorium Urban Renewal District and Lawrence Halprin's work on the Lovejoy Fountain. We kicked it in Lair Hill at the current Waldorf School/former Neighborhood House, saw the little Carnegie Library, old carriage houses, and Portland's first synagogue (now a church).
Someone said, "Man, art classes are way more fun than finance classes." True. But why? We decided that's because art classes are more about asking questions than finding answers.
This week was all about design and process, and I'd like to think we engaged in a number of different kinds of creative processes (Experimental documentation over the weekend, Post-It brainstorming on Monday, neighborhood ramble on Wednesday).
And then, because it was July 11, we all got free Slurpees at 7-11.
Go Design Thinking!

Clifford Chance to cut City associates in response to 'low NQ attrition'
Readers' comments (27)
sounds like a bit of a car crash
Can't think of any other industry in which it would be readily accepted that a desire to offer a permanent role to someone ending a 2 year fixed-term contract would be used to justify terminating existing employees.
Those for whom way is being made have a few years until they're recycled/pushed aside for cheaper labour. Start honing those transferable skills now so that you're fully prepared for the tap on the shoulder when (not if) it comes.
Pardon? When we recruited people we expected them to be poached but they weren't so we'll sack them? This simply reflects a lack of work. There's no need to confuse the issue.
CC has vowed not to sack partners only because its partnership deed doesn't allow it too. Links' and A&O's deeds do allow it. So Links and A&O can do it without a vote but CC would need a vote. And the turkeys are not going to vote for Xmas.
If CC's management had the power then they'd be doing exactly what Links did.
is this the first spray of a lot more blood that will be spilt on the corporate carpets of london's city firms?
Advice to the NQs. Drive drunk in Hong Kong and you will be just fine. If you have a problem just call Mr Charlton.
If there's no work then why the retention of NQs? They say it's important that 'resources' are in line with business need. That smacks of the need for less experienced/cheaper people to do what work there is, rather than there being a lack of work full stop.
The sheer hypocrisy is startling. CC demands team working skills and a desire to work in a collegial environment from its applicants and then it fires a bunch of associates because cheaper labour is available...
A disgusting decision. Shameful and abhorrent.
@Vercingetorix: I believe CC partners DID vote on the last restructuring and more partners voted 'yes' than stayed. In other words, some turkeys did indeed vote for Christmas.
As always, you need to take the official figure and roughly triple it to take into account all of the "stealth" departures.
The partners had to do something to celebrate the reduction in the 50p tax rate, this is their present to themselves.
Many partner did indeed vote - with their feet to greener pastures. Think CCs many top funds, PE and corp partners who move to more elite firms.
We all have to go with the times but getting rid of experiance is not always the best way forward to compare it to new cheaper lawyers who just qualified is not a way forward, but who are we to judge what a firm need to do to move forward throught these ruff times.
What's the big deal, other than it's surpising that the downsizing is not much bigger?
I am surprised that 'Christina Bryan' is not on here, vociferously justifying CC's actions!
Problems if you get larger and larger and keep taking on more and more low margin work!
This is surely Stage 2 of the 'Newcastle model'.
After deciding to stop promoting associates, the partners replace them with more compliant, less expensive underlinings.
This ensures the partners who arrived in the 2000s are guaranteed to remain in post for another twenty years as their competition is pushed outside the profession.
This is absolutely normal in a large firm. The way the work allocation is done is that there needs to be a certain number of people at each level, and a 20% per year attrition. If people aren't leaving then they're paying extra for people higher up the lockstep to do jobs, when the work can be done by NQs who get paid 61k a year.
I agree that this does appear like stage 2 of 'the Newcastle Model'. However the firm which pioneered stage 1 of 'the Newcastle Model' is certainly not being hampered by a "low NQ attrition"!
Like making the partners untouchable in a recession, this policy will kill the firm slowly. Standards will slip and those who suffer from this selfish, greedy scheme will make their feelings known within the profession and to clients. It takes a long time to repair a reputation.
In response to email@example.com:
Can't think of any other industry in which it would be readily accepted that a desire to offer a permanent role to someone ending a 2 year fixed-term contract would be used to justify terminating existing employees.
- I can't think of any other industry where said permanent employees would have an automatic entitlement to 10-20% pay rises year-on-year; where associates are charged out on a similar fee base (indeed, that fee base moves on a 6-month basis at some firms).
Associates can't have it both ways: if you want lockstep salaries, guess what... you need attrition to keep the pyramid in check. The broader problem, however, is the utter evisceration of CC's strategy - like that other British brand (Tesco), the market has shifted and it needs to urgently redefine itself. 13 redundancies won't make a dent.

Link Between 1p36 Deletions and Cancer Revealed
A team of scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Stanford University has identified a tumor-suppressor function for Chd5, a member of the chromatin remodeling protein (CHD) family that maps to the 1p36 region of human chromosome 1. Their results are published February 9 in Cell.
Mutations in 1p36 are coincident with many diseases, including neural cancers, melanoma, hematopoietic cancers, and epithelial cancers of the thyroid, cervix, colon, and breast. These mutations are usually deletions, sparking a widespread search for a tumor suppressor as the missing link. Read more

Mapping the Cancer Genome
The following captures some of the highlights from an article in the March 2007 Scientific American magazine that I wrote with National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) Director Dr. Francis Collins. It represents one of the first detailed discussions of The Cancer Genome Atlas in a publication that is widely read by a variety of audiences.
Writing in Science in 1986, Dr. Renato Dulbecco, a pioneering cancer researcher and Nobel Laureate declared, "We are at a turning point." Discoveries in preceding years had made clear that much of the deranged behavior of cancer cells stemmed from damage to their genes and alterations in their functioning. "We have two options," he wrote. "Either try to discover the genes important in malignancy by a piecemeal approach, or…sequence the whole genome." Read more

Unique to Pacifica
The program of study in research provides a solid grounding in both scientific and qualitative research traditions, while specializing in innovative human science methodologies addressing the multiple dimensions of psychological life. Research courses emphasize the complementary interdependence of clinical intervention and empirical inquiry and provide the skills necessary to complete the doctoral dissertation as well as contribute to the academic field of clinical and depth psychology as a lifelong researcher.
Research Designs and Methodology I: OverviewCP 932......................2 UnitsThe intent of this course is to foster an introductory knowledge of design and methodology in psychological research, including an understanding of the history and characteristics of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods approaches. The theoretical frameworks, techniques, and critiques of a variety of research perspectives are surveyed, with a focus on the human science traditions. Additional issues discussed include: bias, ethics, diversity, postmodernism and critical theory, and the relationship between research and clinical practice. The course also emphasizes the development of critical thinking and proficiency with a representative method of the student's choosing.
Research Designs and Methodology II: Qualitative MethodsCP 933......................2 UnitsThe course examines the strengths and weaknesses of the major human science traditions, such as: phenomenology, hermeneutics, heuristic approaches, ethnography, grounded theory, biography, and case study. Theory and praxis of these approaches are covered, and students gain hands on experience with a particular qualitative approach (i.e., phenomenology). Emphasis is given to ethics and diversity, as well as the parallels between research and clinical practice. Prerequisite: CP 932
Quantitative Design and Univariate Statistical AnalysisCP 926......................2 UnitsThis course is intended to provide an overview to univariate statistical methods or those pertaining to analysis of a single, continuous dependent variable. The goal of this overview is to prepare students to be competent and critical consumers of quantitative research for clinical practice. An applied overview of both descriptive and inferential statistics is provided. Topics covered include: (1) Descriptive statistics (Measurement scales, frequency distributions, measures of central tendency, measures of spread (variability), measures of linear relationships, and standard scores), and (2) Inferential statistics (Hypothesis testing (correlation and regression, Z-tests, t-tests, one way analysis of variance (ANOVA ), Chi-Square tests) and estimation of population parameters from sample data). Prerequisite: CP 932
Research Designs and Methodology III: Advanced Quantitative Analysis and Scale DevelopmentCL 939......................2 UnitsThe goal of this class is to provide students with an overview of advanced quantitative methods including multivariate statistical analysis and scale development procedures. This course will help students become skilled in reading, understanding, and using these designs. It will also examine the broad principles and application of multivariate statistical models for the design of quantitative studies and the treatment of data as well as statistical methods employed in scale development. Topics include multivariate analysis of variance and covariance, factor analysis, binary logistic regression, multiple regression, discriminant analysis, power, and meta-analysis. These methods will also be used to understand scale development along with knowledge and application of reliability, validity, types of scales, item analysis, multi-trait multi-method validation, and item response theory. Prerequisite: CP 932, CP 926
Depth Psychological Methods ICL 928......................2 UnitsThe foundation for a complex psychological epistemology that honors the autonomous character of soul, and an approach to research that keeps soul in mind are developed. Students dialogue with traditions of empirical psychology, depth psychology with particular emphasis on Jung's psychology, and phenomenology. The course articulates an ethical and therapeutic approach to research which takes into account dynamic unconscious factors in research. In addition to this focus on approach, this course also briefly introduces the processes of research that arise from it and discusses the role of method. A key aim of the course is the development of a critical attitude toward the multiple levels of the psyche as it presents itself through personal history, diverse cultures, and the collective and ecological dimensions of experience.
Dissertation Development ICP 961......................1 UnitThis course emphasizes on the development of critical thinking skills, related to evaluating research studies and the writing of a doctoral dissertation in clinical psychology. Other basic skills covered include: APA format, library research skills, grant writing, as well as ethics and professional issues regarding writing and publishing. In addition, the course focuses on the identification of appropriate topics for one's dissertation within the academic field of clinical psychology, and the beginnings of a literature review. Faculty members review students' potential topics and their initial literature review efforts.
Research Designs and Methodology IV: Advanced Qualitative MethodCL 940......................2 UnitsThe course focuses on one or two of the major human science traditions, such as: phenomenology, hermeneutics, heuristic approaches, ethnography, grounded theory, biography, and case study. This semester the theory and praxis of hermeneutics, with an emphasis on social constructionism and metabletics (investigation of historical changes) are covered in depth, and students gain more extensive, hands-on experience with these particular qualitative approaches. Emphasis is given to ethics and diversity, as well as the parallels between research and clinical practice. Prerequisites: CP 932, CP 933
Dissertation Development IICP 962......................2 UnitsThis course continues with the knowledge, skills, and personal process involved with the development of a dissertation. Focus in this second course is on refining one's dissertation topic into a specific research question. By reviewing the literature of prospective topics as well as deep introspection and self-exploration, a unique query and potential contribution to the field of clinical psychology is discerned. The student begins to construct the literature review relevant to the chosen research question and considers appropriate research methods. Students present research questions and literature reviews for faculty review. Advanced students may present Concept Papers for formal approval. Professional and diversity issues relevant to dissertation writing are discussed. Prerequisite: CP 961
Depth Psychological Methods IICL 929......................2 unitsThis course expands upon the research processes introduced in the first Depth Psychological Research Methods course. The vocational and transference dimensions of the research process are explored, and students practice psychological dialogues as a means to make more conscious their own unconscious transference to their material. In addition this course re-visons the role of method as a metaphoric perspective and looks at the ways in which various research methods, such as imaginal and archetypal methods, both reveal and conceal their topics. Prerequisite: CP 927
Dissertation Development IIICP 963......................2 UnitsThe last course in the dissertation sequence focuses on the completion of the Concept Paper, which contains a literature review of the seminal sources, a well-defined research question, a sketch of the method(s) to be used in addressing the question, and an explication of the relevance of the question for clinical psychological practice. Students present Concept Papers for formal approval. For advanced students with approved Concept Papers, work will be directed toward Proposal completion (i.e., expanding literature review, explicating method). Committee formation, professional, and diversity issues relevant to dissertation writing are discussed. Prerequisites: CP 961, CP 962
Dissertation WritingCP 990......................15 UnitsDuring this course, students assemble their dissertation committees, write their dissertation proposals, and complete the dissertation process. Students are required to complete all 15 units. This course may be taken concurrently with other courses. Additional fees are assessed for this course.
Comprehensive ExaminationCP 989......................0 UnitsUpon completion of ten quarters of Ph.D. coursework, a student in good academic standing is eligible to take the Comprehensive Examination. The Comprehensive Examination is designed to assess student competencies in the area of each of the three Program Domains: Clinical Practice, Research and Scholarly Inquiry, and Depth Psychology and Humanities. Students must pass all components of the Comprehensive Examination in order to advance in the Clinical Program to Dissertation Writing (CP 990) or Internship. Students must retake any failed portion of the exam by the end of the Fall quarter of the year in which the exam was administered. A student is eligible to take an academic Tutorial in preparation for re-examination. If a student does not pass any aspect of the Comprehensive Exam within two attempts he or she will be academically disqualified.

It's not on the market yet, but when Popular Science Magazine has the UnoCycle on the cover as one of its top 10 inventions of http://televideocom.com/women-cialis the levitra online us]non generic levitra year, this machine is one to watch.
The UnoCycle was developed by 19-year-old inventor Ben Gulak of Toronto who inherited his grandfather's machine shop, and has been a tinkerer for years. A trip to cheapest price viagra deliverd uk China two years ago got Gulak thinking about the environmental damage done by internal combustion engines. Determined to figure out a better solution, he came up with the Uno, a two-wheel electric motorcycle that's smaller than the real thing. The all-electric vehicle emits zero emissions. While not the first electric motorcycle, it gets big props for unique design.
It works kind of like the Segway where the rider shifts position on the vehicle to accelerate or brake. Moving forward and viagra pfizer online backward is as simple as pushing forward in the cheap 25mg cialis seat or leaning back. When the rider turns, the wheels adjust for stability by keeping both inside and outside wheel on the ground at the same time.
Gulak has already spent about $50,000 on the prototype and hopes to be able to sell the Uno for about $6,000 - highly affordable for this knid of head-turning transportation. Business interest is definitely piqued, as he has already fielded interest from one motorcycle enthusiast, and producers at the Tonight Show on behalf of Jay Leno called recently to ask about the zippy Uno. Gulak came up with the name Uno, which means One, because it sounds European and from certain angles the two-wheeled motorcycle looks like it only has one wheel.

1) Centralizing the burning of fossil fuels from a million combustion engines to a few power plants means that you can take advantage of different and higher-efficiency methods and materials. It is also much easier to control the combine cialis and levitra emissions in centralized production.
2) Similar to #1, If you have all the energy conversion centralized, you can implement new techniques and it's cool what is the cost of viagra new technologies quickly, rather than having to replace millions of combustion vehicles.
3)Without putting any effort into the vehicles themselves, electric vehicles become greener and more "efficient" when new renewable technologies are added to the grid.
