What Amazon bulls are betting on
The stock is trading at an all-time high on investor optimism about cloud services and other technology initiatives. But those are a small part of the overall business.
By Dana Blackenhorn, TheStreet
Recently, I speculated in print that shares of Amazon.com (AMZN) would drop after the Seattle company posted its quarterly earnings. I expected the online retailer to miss analyst estimates
Betting against Amazon has become a mug's game. Since the stock market bottom, in late 2008, the stock has risen steadily, from below $38 a share to its present high of $266.
This has not been accompanied by a rise in earnings, although sales have more than quadrupled in the period. Like those old-school dot-com startups (and .com is still part of Amazon's formal name) the company operates as if it's losing money on every transaction but making it up on volume.
This drives conventional analysts batty. Paulo Santos, an independent trader who contributes market analysis to the website Seeking Alpha, compares betting on Amazon to buying a bad lottery ticket.
A tech company or a retailer?
There are measures by which Amazon stock has a reasonable price. Compare its market valuation to its annual sales rate and you get about 2.5, well below the numbers for other technology companies, including Apple (AAPL) or Microsoft (MSFT), and not a lot higher than Intel's (INTC) 2.2.
But look at the same ratio in comparison to retailers such as Wal-Mart (WMT) and Costco Wholesale (COST) and you get a different story. Wal-Mart's figure is .59, Costco's .44.
Because Amazon is so technologically intensive, it's hard to tell how to value the stock.
Is it a retailer or a tech company? The stock price says tech company but the numbers say retailer. The "smart money" is selling Amazon, and the smart money is getting clobbered.
Chris Gaun of Gartner Group recently tried to uncover Amazon's cloud revenue number -- it's broken out only as part of "other" on the company's balance sheet -- and came up with $1.5 billion for 2012, far from the $3.8 billion figure offered by Australia's Macquarie Capital, which most Amazon bulls are betting on.
Still, assume Macquarie is right. Cloud remains a very tiny portion of the company's business, contributing less than $1 billion in revenue per quarter this year; the entire company averaged quarterly sales of $15 billion. Just like 24 times before, Amazon recently lowered its cloud prices again, even on its fastest processing systems.
Be generous
Of course, cloud computing is just one part of the Amazon technology story. It's also one of the leading streaming media companies, where it goes head to head with Netflix (NFLX). But what is streaming worth? Netflix' total revenue for 2012 was about $3.6 billion. Even if Amazon did as well, that and the cloud business are still just gnats on the balance-sheet elephant.
So, be generous and toss in the Kindle business. Pacific Crest Securities recently told Barron's that Amazon might sell 10.5 million Kindle Fire tablets in 2013. That's revenue of $2.5 billion over the course of this year.
In his most-recent conference call, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos said e-book revenue was $9.2 billion. Let's call e-books tech, too, and not retailing.
Now add it all up and, like I said, be generous. Add Macquarie's $3.8 billion in cloud to Netflix' $3.6 billion in streaming, toss in $2.5 billion for Kindle players and $9.2 billion in e-book revenue. That's $19 billion in technology revenue, from all sources, for 2013.
Amazon.com did $21 billion in revenue during the fourth quarter of 2012 alone.
Figure you're paying Wal-Mart's valuation on the straight retail sales, take out all its cash (about $5 billion) and you're still paying $90 billion for a tech business that may produce $19 billion in revenue this year. That's a ratio of 4.5 times sales.
There are crazier prices on the technology board. Facebook (FB) shareholders pay 18 times revenue for their shares. But you can get Google (GOOG) for 4.9 times sales, and Oracle (ORCL) for 4.5 times sales. That's real tech revenue, every dime of it.
Personally, I love Amazon. I think it's worth $200 per share, which, by my very optimistic, back-of-the-envelope calculation, still comes to a valuation comparable with that of Apple. But it's no surprise that, to people who do this for a living, Amazon's stock chart looks a lot like Netflix' from 2011, just before its fall. It's a cult classic, and investing on it at these levels could prove a very scary movie, indeed.

The inspector general for the U.S. State Department recently issued a damning report (PDF) on antidrug efforts in Afghanistan, saying that long-term strategy, objectives and a pathway to eventually empowering Afghans to address their own problems all are insufficient.
The New York Times reported Dec. 24 that the report said that clear roles were lacking for both military and civilian antidrug efforts, and that cooperation between the U.S. embassies in Kabul and Islamabad, Pakistan has been poor because embassy officials in Pakistan don't see a link between drug trafficking and insurgents in Pakistan.
Drug eradication efforts also are handicapped by the Afghan government's weak justice system, corruption, and lack of political will, the report said.

Ten lies programmers tell themselves
Sitting alone staring at code all day can lead one to be less than honest with oneself. Here are some of the more common fibs that coders tell themselves
flickr/Matt Silvan
If George Washington really never told a lie, then he must never have been a programmer. All those long hours sitting alone in a cube or at a workstation (unless you pair program) can lead you to not just talk to yourself, but to outright lie. How else to justify doing (or not doing) certain things that you probably shouldn't (or should) do?
Of course, people in every profession lie to themselves now and again. Some jobs, though, like ones where people work alone for long stretches, such as writers, programmers or toll booth operators (I'm guessing), seem more prone to it than others. No matter how much it occurs, every occupation has a common set of lies that its practitioners tell themselves.
Here now is a list of 10 lies that programmers often tell themselves (most of which I told myself during my years in the coding trenches), in no particular order:
This code is self-documenting - No need to write separate documentation; it's obvious to anyone with a brain what this code is doing.
This is a [hardware | database | network] issue, not a code issue - Obviously, it's that recent database patch that's gumming things up, not my hand crafted SQL.
It's not a bug; the user is doing something wrong - The code is doing what it's supposed to be doing; users are idiots.
When I'm playing Halo 4 I'm thinking about coding, so it's like I'm coding - First person shooters help me to think through complex programming problems.
I'm the only one who knows this code, so they can't lay me off - They're lucky I don't demand a raise.
I know what the client wants - I know what the client said, but that's not really what they want.
QA will find any bugs - No need to go overboard with testing at this point.
This fix is so simple that we can put it straight into production - I may as well just push it live and go home for the weekend.
Of course this will scale - Worst case scenario is we load balance another server.
I could rewrite this pile of spaghetti legacy code and save time in the long run - If only I wasn't so busy right now playing Halo 4 - I mean thinking through complex programming problems.
Any of these sound familiar? What other lies do you programmers tell yourselves? Please share in the comments.

Samsung Galaxy S IV
The Most Lusted After Android Smartphone to Date
"Samsung has added some of the gesture and haptic features from its Galaxy Note line into the Galaxy S4. A new feature called Air View lets users hover their fingers over content in certain apps such as Flipboard and see a preview of the content before changing screens. Air Gestures are Kinect-like gestures that allow users to navigate the phone and even make voice calls without touching the screen."
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
The Premium Suite
"If you pinch on the Note 10.1's keyboard, it launches three different layout options for you: a QWERTY keyboard, a floating keyboard and a split keyboard. We found the latter to be easiest to use when holding the tablet in landscape mode. We also appreciated the slight haptic feedback, supplying gentle buzz when we pressed a letter. Another plus: There's a dedicated number row above the letters."

Duluth, MN (KDAL) - What could've been a devastating end to a clean-up campaign in West Duluth has had a happy ending. Teens from around Wisconsin and Minnesota, staying at a pair of churches in Duluth, spent the week cleaning up flood damage as part of the 'Hands of Hope' campaign. Pastor Jonathan Lemaster of Northern City Baptist Church, which helped organize the effort, says four teen girls taking a shower in portable facilities Friday evening were overcome by carbon monoxide. Two of the girls passed out. One was able to get out of the shower and alert adults. They were all rushed to the hospital where they recovered. All were released with no ill-effects. Lemaster says the issue with portable showers has since been repaired and he credits the teens' quick recovery to prayer.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) – The Final Four is like the Kentucky Derby. Everybody understands the way the Final Four works in college basketball. Ditto for the bowl system in college football. Two teams, one game. Over.
But the College World Series is different. It's bigger. Eight teams participate. It's longer. It can extend nearly two weeks.
It's foreign to Kentuckiana. This is only the second trip the University of Louisville baseball program has made, and it's the first time the Indiana University baseball program will be spotted in Omaha, which, for the record, is tucked about three hours north of Kansas City in eastern Nebraska.
So you have questions. I have answers. Batter up!
1. The World Series most baseball fans know is a two-team, best of seven-game series. Eight teams will play in Omaha. How does this work?
This could actually be questions one, two and three, because to everybody I know, it's a confusing system. You don't have to be Tony LaRussa to understand the format, but it would help.
Here goes: The CWS is actually two, four-team pods that end with a best-of-three series between the two teams that survive those pods. (Click here to see the bracket.)
Louisville, Indiana, Mississippi State and Oregon State are on one side of the bracket. They're grouped into a double-elimination tournament that will begin Saturday and end either June 21 or 22.
The format is the same as the one used during the regional events that U of L and IU hosted on the first weekend of the tourney, with one major difference: There is a day off between games.
Louisiana State, UCLA, North Carolina State and either North Carolina or South Carolina will compete in the other pod. This is the group that begins play on Sunday. The winner of one pod plays the winner of the other in the CWS finals.
The two-of-three format for the finals is the same one used during the Super Regionals that U of L won at Vanderbilt and IU won at Florida State. The finals are scheduled to begin Monday June 24 at 8 p.m. (EDT), and end no later than June 26, weather permitting.
TIP: Pack a lot of clothes – or bring a roll of quarters for the Laundromat. If your team wins, it's a long trip.
To win the CWS, a team will have to win at least five games, and maybe six. Of course you could also lose once in the opening round – and once in the finals -- and still win the trophy.
I told you it was confusing. I'll stop there.
2. Who's favored?
I could be flip and say Vanderbilt. But actually that's not being flip because before the tournament started, the Commodores were a sensible pick. In fact, they were my pick.
But this is baseball. The difference between teams can be one throw in the dirt, or one hanging curveball. Among teams of relatively equal ability, the best ones do well to win 60-65 percent of their games.
So everybody is in play. Everybody. Look at all the top teams -- Vanderbilt, Virginia, Florida State and Oregon -- that are already on the sidelines.
But if you want a pecking order, this is how the teams are currently ranked in Warren Nolan's Nitty Gritty Report, a go-to web site for college baseball fans (click here to view).
North Carolina – 1 (but the Tar Heels must beat South Carolina today).
Louisiana State – 2.
Oregon State – 5.
N.C. State – 6.
Mississippi State – 8.
Indiana – 11.
South Carolina – 12 (must beat UNC).
Louisville – 14.
If you believe in the power of tradition, South Carolina (2010-11), LSU (2000, 2009) and Oregon State (2006-07) are the teams to fear. All three have won the CWS twice since 2000.
3. Jacoby Ellsbury (Oregon State, Red Sox), Ryan Braun (Miami, Brewers), Lance Berkman (Rice, Rangers) and Todd Helton (Tennessee, Rockies) are current major-league players who played in the CWS.
Are there any must-have autographs to chase in Omaha?
The MLB First-Year Player draft was last week: Here are the guys who were drafted during the first two rounds:
North Carolina third baseman Colin Moran, sixth by Miami; Mississippi State outfielder Hunter Renfroe, 13th by San Diego and LSU pitcher Ryan Eades, 43rd by Minnesota.
That's not many, but that is the list. Three guys, although most teams have players who will be top picks in 2014 and 2015. Indiana's top two hitters -- Kyle Schwarber and Sam Travis -- fall in that category as does U of L closer Nick Burdi.
4. Which team had the most players selected?
That would be the same team that will have the most fans in Omaha and be the likely favorite – Louisiana State. Nine Tigers will have the chance to go from Omaha to the minor leagues, if they choose to sign.
Here is how the teams rank in MLB draftees:
2. Louisville, Mississippi State, Oregon State, UCLA 7.
6. North Carolina 6.
7. South Carolina 4.
8. Indiana 3.
9. N.C. State 2.
But do you remember Jonah Nickerson (Oregon State, 2006), David Moroul (Texas, 2005) and Jason Windsor (Cal-State Fullerton, 2004)?
Neither do I. All three were all named the Most Outstanding Player at the CWS but never made the big leagues. It's baseball. Anybody can be the star.
5. Isn't Rosenblatt Stadium considered one of the must-see venues in baseball?
Don't go to Rosenblatt Stadium. The CWS isn't played there any more. The party -- and the famous college baseball statue -- moved to T.D. Ameritrade Park in downtown Omaha for the 2011 CWS.
It's a thoroughly modern baseball venue with suites and improved concession stands and restrooms. The place has 24,000 permanent seats but can expand to 35,000. Think of it this way: Rosenblatt had the feel of Old Cardinal Stadium, but the experience at Ameritrade will be like going to Louisville Slugger Field – but driving 11 hours to get there.
See you in Omaha. Remember: Pack a lot of clothes.

It might have been back in February when he got under the skin of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on CBS' "Face the Nation."
Or maybe it was in May when he went toe to toe with former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on NBC's "Meet the Press."
None of the analysts is sure exactly when it happened. But they all agree that sometime in 2012, Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley become a staple, if not a star, of Sunday morning public-affairs television. And for all the new media speaking to voters, that forum not only shapes the national debate, it also plays a major role in anointing politicians as national leaders worthy of White House consideration.
Why does O'Malley get invited to the shows seemingly every week while many other eager and able political leaders never get the call? People who host and book the shows say political savvy, TV skills, geography and a willingness to take off the gloves result in a combination that one veteran network producer describes as "the Chris Christie of Democrats."
"He really has jumped out and established himself on Sunday shows this year as one of the leading spokesmen for the Obama campaign and for Democrats in general," says Bob Schieffer, host of CBS News' "Face the Nation," on which O'Malley has appeared three times in 2012.
"Coming up with people who can speak in an informed and authoritative way isn't easy, and O'Malley is one of the few who can," he adds. "He can tell us what the Obama campaign is up to with straight answers to our questions. And beyond that, he's just very, very good on television — he's a performer who knows how to get his points across. All the shows have figured out how good he is now."
But a higher profile can also make for a better target. Some critics say O'Malley spends more time using the national media to look like he's governing than actually doing the work of running the state in tough economic times. They see him as a camera-loving politician looking to the White House in 2016. But even his harshest critics acknowledge what producers and hosts see: that he is a very effective TV communicator.
"There are a lot of things that make him a good guest," says Candy Crowley, host of CNN's "State of the Union" where O'Malley also appeared three times this year.
"First of all, he runs the Democratic Governors Association, so it gives him heft. Second of all, he is regularly in touch with the Obama people, so that gives him credence," she says.
"But also important ... he's a showman. He gets what his role is. He gets what my role is. And he's game. So far as I can tell, he tells the truth and is very good at nuancing things, so that he doesn't reflect badly on the president even when he disagrees with him. He knows how to walk that line. He gives you enough so that you've got something. But he doesn't give so much that he's then seen by the Obama people as, 'OK, we don't want this guy on again.'"
Crowley adds one other item to the list of what makes the 49-year-old ex-mayor of Baltimore a favorite of the people who make Sunday morning TV: proximity. The Annapolis resident lives within 45 minutes of the Washington studios where the shows are produced. That's no small matter; such logistics count when doing a live, off-the-news telecast.
"It's not that we don't do remote guests," Crowley says. "We do them all the time. But it's so much better when they're in studio, and he can do that. And he's willing to do it. I love that."
Some analysts have attributed O'Malley's rise in national stature solely to his taking over as chair of the Democratic Governors Association in 2011. Yet predecessors Jack Markell of Delaware, Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Bruce Schweitzer of Montana did not see the same profile boost.
Like Crowley, "Meet the Press" executive producer Betsy Fischer Martin says O'Malley's role with the governors' association helped get him onto the shows, but the kind of media game he brought to their studios is what got him invited back. He's been on the NBC show twice this year.
"He's very accessible and willing to come on and engage with Republicans," she says. "The last time we had him on, he was on with Newt Gingrich, and we had a good back-and-forth on the campaign and the major issues going forward. Sometimes we get a situation where we have guests who don't want to appear with the other side. But he's willing to do that. He can be the sort of Chris Christie of Democrats, if you will."
Christie himself offered a less-flattering assessment of Maryland's governor after their February appearance on "Face the Nation."
"Governor O'Malley is not really worthy of responding to," Christie told a reporter from NorthJersey.com after the show. "I'll tell you the truth: He's not that smart. He's not that good. But he's flippant, so I give him credit for that."
O'Malley had compared Christie to comedian Don Rickles on-air, and not in a good way: "Chris Christie's brand of sort of 'Don Rickles' leadership is unusual. The bombast and all of that stuff is entertaining, but it doesn't make for good governance."
What Christie characterizes as flippant, others might call TV-glib, in a good way.
On July 8, he squared off with Bobby Jindal on ABC's "This Week." The Louisiana governor said America was "going the way of Europe" thanks to what he characterized as the president's failed economic policies.

Going through a divorce during the holidays can be emotionally wrenching, which is why many people don't do it — they put it off until January.
"People don't want to upset the apple cart over the holidays, and they want a peaceful Christmas, Hanukkah, or New Year's. And then, because they don't want to spend another . . . year with that spouse of theirs, as soon as the holidays are over they pull the plug and file," says Alton Abramowitz, president of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers.

A man was arrested near Washington Street and Congress Avenue after running from police on Saturday night. After the short pursuit, a Coolidge police officer's face was grazed by a ricochet bullet.
The incident began when 34-year-old Korrin Harmon allegedly fled from officers, resulting in a pursuit. The Harmon's vehicle crashed into a fence and an officer shot at the vehicle's rear tire, attempting to keep it from fleeing again.
Deputies say the bullet ricocheted after hitting the rim of the tire and hit one of the other officers in the cheek.
The officer was flown to a hospital and treated for minor injuries. He was later released.
Harmon surrendered and was taken into custody and booked on numerous counts of aggravated assault and endangerment.
Deputies say Harmon admitted he was on parole and has always ran from police since he was a teen.

Giancarlo Stanton: Mean Vato of the Month, it has a nice ring to it.
The slugger formerly known as Mike Stanton loomed larger than ever in May, unleashing hell on opposing pitchers, hitters and even his new playing confines of Sun Life Stadium as he acclimated to his new stripes.
As Hurricane Giancarlo ushered in the Atlantic storm season, his path of destruction almost included cutting his own cutoff man in half with a point-blank laser beam from shallow right.
Stanton was slow to start his long-ball tally this season, burning a career-high 97 at-bats until connecting on a solitary bomb in the opening month as the Marlins sunk to an 8-14 record.
Once Giancarlo's Marucci warmed up, the Marlins sprung to life, stringing together seven straight victories to start May, with Stanton hitting safely in each game and providing five home runs.
Stanton had a day as the Marlins notched their tenth win of the month on just the 13th day, logging three hits including a walk-off Grand Slam against the Mets.
Two days later, Stanton proved he was also a Mean Vato with his glove, reeling in a long fly by Garrett Jones on the wall during a victory over the Pirates.
He then backed it up the following night by taking away an extra-base hit from Jason Hayward with a picture-perfect diving catch to help preserve a win against the Braves.
Stanton saved his best for the tail end of May, beginning with another Grand Slam, this time against the Colorado Rockies to give his team the go-ahead shot on the way to a 7-4 win.
The 49 year-old Jamie Moyer assisted the 462-foot missile launch that struck and damaged Miami's plush new scoreboard.
Three nights later Stanton hit his next bomb, unloading another tape measure shot of 458 feet off the Giants' Ryan Vogelsong that reached the Budweiser Balcony deep over left field.
Having already given Miami's new home-run sculpture a workout over the past three weeks, the next night Stanton sent an 80mph offering by Tim Lincecum 432 feet to left-center and into the Marlin-encrusted merry-go-round.
The Marlins capped May with a three-game sweep of the Nationals to complete a 21-7 run, in wins alone Stanton racked up 31 hits at .388 with 26 RBI and 11 home runs.
As for Josh Hamilton, Andrew McCutchen, Adam Dunn and Adam Jones, they were all mean in May, but not mean enough to displace Giancarlo as the meanest vato in baseball.

text: This year I am on the Student Senate here at Luther and my position is to be the Liaison to the Decorah City Council. This means I attend all city council meetings and give them a "Luther update." The council meetings are only twice a month and are pretty laid back. Obviously they are professional and all that democratic business but there aren't too many big problems around Decorah so the meetings are not well attended. Every once and a while there is a topic that comes up that "stirs the pot." A few weeks ago it was a decision to allow the Trail Festival, an event in celebration of the new trail opening, to be in the middle of downtown, meaning some of the street would have to be blocked off. The council was split in this decision and inevitably it failed. But that was not the end of it. The discussion continued until the end of the meeting when one of the members expressed her disappointment in the council. Not that this was an incredibly heated event but for Decorah it was a big deal. From what I hear these types of debates only happen once in a while so it will be a while until I have another experience like that.

Spain is characterized by the overlap of one fundamental climatic division (between humid and semiarid and arid zones) by another (the threefold division of the peninsula into maritime, continental, and mountain climates). This complexity results from the peninsula's size, which is large enough to generate a continental thermal regime; its location close to the Atlantic Ocean and North Africa, exposing it to both maritime and Saharan influences; and its mountainous relief, which not only produces its own climatic zones but also exaggerates local aridity through the creation of rain shadows on the mountains' leeward sides.
The Pyrenees and the Cantabrian ranges play an important role in the Spanish climate, holding the warm, dry subtropical airstream over Spain during the summer months. In general, westerly winds from the North Atlantic are dominant most of the year, while the warm, dry Saharan airstream blows less frequently. Some local or seasonal winds are notable: the easterly levante (levanter) can bring as many as 15 consecutive days of dry, clear weather to the coastal strip in the region of the Strait of Gibraltar; the leveche brings a hot, dry, dust-laden wind that blights vegetation in spring from the southern sector to the Spanish Levantine lowlands (the provinces of Castellón, Valencia, and Alicante); and in spring and summer a wind from the same sector, the solano, carries unbearably hot, dry, suffocating weather over the Andalusian plain. Northern Spain, from Galicia to northern Catalonia (Catalunya, or Cataluña), is characterized by a temperate humid or maritime type of climate, having high rainfall and an average temperature in January of 43 °F (6 °C) near the coast but less than that inland and in the mountains. A Coruña (La Coruña) has a moderate annual temperature, ranging from 48 °F (9 °C) in winter to 64 °F (18 °C) in summer, and the annual rainfall is about 38 inches (965 mm). The rest of the peninsula has a Mediterranean type of climate with continental tendencies—i.e., hot toward the coast, relatively cold in the interior, humid only in the mountains, and dry elsewhere. Thus Albacete, in the southeastern part of the southern Meseta, varies between 40 °F (4 °C) in the winter and 75 °F (24 °C) in the summer, while the annual rainfall is less than 15 inches (380 mm). The valleys of the Ebro and the Guadalquivir also have a continental climate, the Ebro drier and colder and the Guadalquivir warmer and more humid. Catalonia, Valencia, and the Balearic Islands enjoy more temperate weather, with higher rainfall in Catalonia, while the Canary Islands have a subtropical Atlantic climate.
Plant and animal life
Nearly half of Spain is covered by spontaneous vegetation of some sort, but only a small proportion (largely confined to the mountains) is classified as dense woodland. Northern Spain has heath and deciduous woodland (oak, beech). The mountains of the northern Meseta and the Iberian and Baetic cordilleras carry deciduous Portuguese oak; those of the central Pyrenees, the Iberian ranges, and the Central Sierras have diverse pine species. The rest, more than half of Spain, has a Mediterranean vegetation characterized by evergreen oak (Quercus ilex) and other drought-resistant plants commonly reduced to scrub status (matorral). An esparto grass (Lygeum spartum) is found in the steppes of La Mancha and the southeast; the esparto products of Spain (paper, rope, basketry), however, come from an associated alfa grass (Stipa tenacissima). Poplar and eucalyptus have become widespread since the 19th century.
The proximity of Africa has given Spain more African species of wildlife than are found in the other Mediterranean peninsulas, while the Pyrenean barrier and the general extent of the country explain the number of indigenous species. The European wolf and the brown bear survive in the scarce wild areas of the northeast. The Barbary ape is possibly indigenous but is more likely an import from North Africa. It survives only under protection, at Gibraltar. The wild boar, ibex (wild goat), and red and fallow deer are more common. More than half of the bird species of Europe are found in Coto Doñana National Park, at the mouth of the Guadalquivir; the Spanish imperial eagle and other large species such as the eagle owl, the buzzard, and several varieties of pheasant are native to the high Pyrenees. Desert locusts have been known to invade southern Spain from North Africa.
The country's waters contain a diversity of fish and shellfish, especially in the southeast where Atlantic and Mediterranean waters mix (the Alborán Sea). Species include red mullet, mackerel, tuna, octopus, swordfish, pilchard (Sardinia pilchardus), and anchovy (Engraulis encrasicholus). Demersal (bottom-dwelling) species include hake and whiting. Striped dolphin and the long-finned whale inhabit the waters off southeastern Spain, and the bottlenose dolphin is found off the Ebro delta. Overfishing has tended to alter the balance of species.
Ethnic groups
Spain has been invaded and inhabited by many different peoples. The peninsula was originally settled by groups from North Africa and western Europe, including the Iberians, Celts, and Basques. Throughout antiquity it was a constant point of attraction for the civilizations of the eastern Mediterranean. From c. 1100 bce the Phoenicians, the Greeks, and the Carthaginians began to establish settlements and trading posts, especially on the eastern and southern coasts. These outsiders found a mosaic of peoples, collectively known as the Iberians, who did not have a single culture or even share a single language. A kingdom called Tartessus, which flourished between 800 and 550 bce, ruled much of the valley of the Guadalquivir. Elsewhere political organization was less sophisticated, consisting of a number of city-states in the coastal regions and of clans in the interior and the northwest.

What You Need to Know to Lose Belly Fat
How to Lose Belly Fat
The first time it happened I was in my early twenties, straphanging in a crowded New York City subway car on my way to work. I was wearing a slim-fitting T-shirt dress, one that for reasons that will soon become horrifyingly clear, I subsequently used to scrub out the litter box and then tossed. The seated woman I was standing in front of met my eyes and smiled. Then she stood up. I smiled back and stepped to the side so she could make her way to the door. She stood right next to me.
"Would you like to sit?" she asked kindly. "I remember how tired I was during my pregnancy. You look like you're into your second trimester; it gets easier."
If I had been pregnant, her act of generosity would probably have sent me into early labor right there on the F train.
But I wasn't. (Even so, I took the seat.)
Once in a while I'm still offered a seat on the train, thanks to a belly that seems to always enter a room a split second before the rest of me does.Tummy Trouble
Every woman's got her own hang-ups about some body flaw, but flabby abs seem to be a universal sore spot. In a recent FITNESS poll, they ranked number one on the list of trouble zones women wanted fixed. Not only has my apple-shaped middle been a preoccupation of mine since I was a tween, it's also been the subject of articles I've written (like this one) and the object of literally hundreds of attempts on my part to accept and/or flatten it. It was only after having twins that I pretty much resigned myself to the fact that my belly was jelly for good.
So when my editor at FITNESS read on my blog that I thought my abs were permanently "stretched out" and I'd abandoned the abs DVDs she'd given me, she asked if I wanted to take a more scientific approach. I thought, sure. Lord knows, endless crunches haven't gotten me far. She set me up with an appointment at the renowned Women's Sports Medicine Center at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City, where I would get an ultrasound and find out what's really going on with my middle.
I was all over the idea of getting a scan. I strongly suspected I had what many women who have been pregnant have, diastasis recti, or separated abdominal muscles. That wouldn't explain why I've always had a pooch, but it could partially explain why I had one now. "Diastasis recti occurs when the abdominal muscles separate along the midline because of an enlarging uterus," says Virginia Lupo, MD, chair of the department of obstetrics and gynecology at Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis. "It's unrelated to whether or not the muscles are strong." That means it makes no difference if your abs are made of steel or mush; the chance that they'll pull apart depends on the strength of the connective tissue that fuses them. In a study of women not long after they had given birth, 68 percent had the condition above their navel and 32 percent below. (Deep breath: Most women's abs will move back together again naturally after a while even if we don't rush to Pilates class the minute we get the okay to exercise.) The more pregnancies a woman has had, the more likely she is to have diastasis recti. I've had only one pregnancy, but it was a double, so the odds were good that this was part of my problem.

IRVING, Texas - With the news coming from Jerry Jones on Tuesday, of the likely knee surgery for
You have to give Jerry and Stephen Jones along with Will McClay and these scouts a great deal of credit for what they have done this off season and throughout training camp adding depth to this roster. There has to be a willingness by the front office and coaches to consistently want to churn the roster. Jason Garrett and this staff should also be commended for their part as well to take on players even when it would be very easy to stand pat with their current 53 man roster. I have always believed that one of Garrett's great strengths is his understanding of how player personnel works in this league.
There are a couple of different ways the Cowboys will be able to manage this. The first one and most obvious, is to continue to start
The next move from the front office and coaches will most likely be to move
McClay and his staff might also choose to try and poach a player off another club's practice squad. Some options might be Craig Roh with the Panthers, Xavier Proctor with the Lions and John Youboty with the Broncos. If they go this route, those players have to remain on their active roster for at least three weeks. The staff could also look toward a veteran free agent but they have proven that signing younger players and trying to work with them, tends to be a better option. Also don't discount the possibility of a trade. This club has done a nice job of collecting late round picks that could also be used to move for players.
With this injury to Anthony Spencer lasting the majority of the summer and now into the fall, this front office and coaching staff were prepared to handle it. This could have gone the other way and they could have been dealing with an injury that happened Sunday and from my experience, that is no fun. There are solid options and place and with the way this scouting department has been operating lately, they will have answers in place sooner rather than later which wasn't always the case.

Small Space Solutions: Using Cabinet & Closet Doors for Storage
In small spaces, a lot of things go on behind closed doors, but how often do we really think about the doors themselves? While we're all familiar with over-the-door organizers, few of us really consider the the possibilities that the back of the door can offer as an useful area. But in a small space, using the door can give you that extra little bit of room and functionality.
• In the medicine cabinet, small items like makeup, Q-tips, ointments, and nail polish can be stored in small containers like the MagnaPods shown in Image 1. (Or if you don't have a metal-door cabinet, consider adhering similar containers, like these from the Container Store, to the inside of the door.)
• In the kitchen cupboard, use the back of the door to keep all your spices close by and well organized. Arranging them like this eliminates unnecessary cabinet rummaging. And for a simple (and in my opinion, genius) solution for those who don't want to put holes in the cabinetry, you can use magnetic paint to make spice tins adhere easily (Image 3).
• The door offers even more space for dry goods, as shown in this well-managed pantry (Image 4). Or, if you don't need extra space for storage but would like an area for menu planning or for a shopping list, the pantry door offers a perfect location. Chalkboard paint can help you make the most of your doors (Image 5).
• The Family Handyman has help step-by-step instructions for making your own steel-and-whiteboard message board on the inside of a cabinet door (Image 6).
• It's possible to maximize the space for cleaning supplies if one forgoes a trash can in favor of attaching a garbage bag to the door (Image 7). Especially in a kitchen, where trash gets smelly quickly and needs to be taken out often, the small size is not prohibitive, and it takes up less under-counter space.
• Over-the-door jewelry and shoe organizers are the most famous of the door storage options, but they certainly aren't to be slighted (Images 8 & 9). And if one is feeling particularly creative, with a bit of chicken wire and some S-hooks, the back of the door itself can be converted into jewelry storage (Image 10).
• I love the idea of inspiration boards, but in my tiny office space, I always feel that they look cluttered. This project, which uses foam-core and fabric, would work wonderfully as an inspiration board surface. I could have all my beautiful decorating pictures at the ready, but when I wanted the space to look tidy, the cabinet could close, and they would all disappear! (Image 11)
• And who doesn't love the multifunctionality of pegboard? (Image 12)

Does anyone spot the problem? In the first picture, the door wouldn't close. You are just taking up rooms on the shelf by adding pockets to the door. The medicine cabinet is too narrow to use such set up. Works much better on the 3rd picture in a kitchen cabinet.
#'s 1 and 3 doesn't look like the doors would close. The stuff on the door looks like it would hit the stuff on the shelves. I do number 3 in the bathroom(hehe). This is great for using up the vertical space above small items on shelves. I keep aspirin and vitamins in the spice jars.
Some really good ideas here and many of them are pretty, too, which is good.
I have repeatedly tried #3 - storing spices in magnetic tins on the door. Eventually, one of them falls off, and I get nigella seeds or cumin powder etc. all over the place. I've tried it with different sized containers from different places. I think the problem is the repeated opening and closing of the doors.
I still think it's a great idea but I've given up. If do you try it, be aware of potential spills and choose what you put in it accordingly: bay leaves or dried red peppers not cayenne powder or black mustard seed.
I'm all for saving space, but this really isn't the best way of doing it. I haven't found a good way of keeping spices, but this isn't it.
Ugh, the spam. Flagged.
Flagged as well - so annoying. Love the idea with the trash bag idea. I use grocery bags as my trash bags and this is a better way than over the door handle.
I also love the idea of reusuing plastic bags on the cabinet door, I just wish i could tell what type of 'hook's they used. Any ideas?
Hooks are 3M command hooks: http://www.staples.com/3M-Command-Adhesive-Wire-Hooks-Small-White-3-Pack/product_564098?cid=PS:GooglePLAs:Office_Supplies:Tape_Glue_&_Adhesives:564098:17067
I have never understood keeping your grocery list on a chalkboard or whiteboard. Then you need to copy it onto paper. Why not keep a digital list or write it on paper in the first place? This really has become a pet peeve, because I see it everywhere.
@STEVENSVOX - They look like generic 3M hooks with sticky backs.
@ 2kidsandus In answer to your question.
My whiteboard is in the kitchen and I frequently write on it with greasy or sticky fingers when I notice I'm running out of something while cooking. I don't want to use my iphone then.
I do use my phone to either take a picture of the board or dictate a list using my Dragon app and paste it into Notes. Then, it's easy peasy to shop from the list.
To anyone who is thinking of using 3M command hooks: I have never had a good experience with them. I have plaster walls, and don't wish to anchor every little thing I hang, and thought these might be a good solution. I used the heavy duty ones to hang a series of nine small (5x7) framed prints up. I followed the directions as written and here is what happened: two frames fell that same day, followed by another by the end of the week. At this point, my hubby and I were betting on how long the it would take the rest to fall. He won. I figured there would still be at least one still up by the end of the month, but alas, no go.
Great, if you can take advantage of it. Other than the cupboards in the kitchen and bathroom, all the doors in my apartment are either bi-fold or slide open.
DIREC79.....I use these 3m hooks all over my home. Did you leave them long enough to adhere before you hung something on the hooks? I usually leave it until the next day. There are also stronger ones that you should use for heavier objects. I'm a long term renter so I dont want to be leaving marks on walls and inside cupboards whenever I move out.
@DIRCE79 and @NADIA-IN-AUSTRALIA: I fell in love with 3M hooks when I lived in a place with drywall walls. Ever since moving to a place with plaster walls, I can't get them to stay up consistently, and finally gave up on them.
where, oh where is that jewlery organizer from? i have the heavy duty 3M hooks and they hold up my kids' super heavy backpacks, no problem. i think the problem with the plaster is the dustiness of it. the surface has to be spotless.
I never know where to store my spices, either. I finally placed an end table (that wasn't being used) in the kitchen, and I am able to place at least 20 spice bottles in the drawer. Plus, the shelf underneath the drawer gives me more storage.
I've had bad experiences with the Command Hooks tearing drywall when I try to take them down. It doesn't matter how gently I work at removing the sticky portion. I've since found that spackling a small nail-hole is a heck of a lot easier than trying to repair torn drywall.
We have spice racks on the insides of our pantry doors - and yeah, you can't put anything in front of them on the actual shelves, or they won't close. In terms of actual space, you haven't gained much - plus, we've now run out of space.
But I love the idea of having a grocery list or menu list inside a door!
Something I saw recently (probably on Pinterest, but I can't remember) is to utilize a clear over-the-door shoe hanging-rack-thing to organize spices.
I agree with many of the posted that some of the back-of-the-door organizers take up space from the front of the shelves BUT and ESPECIALLY for spices (and little bathroom odds and ends, like nail polish), you are more likely to use what you have because they are organized and easier to see. These aren't necessary space saving tips, but they are useful!
Instead of hooks, I bought one of the simplehuman door mount grocery bag can. I don't know about the rest of you, but my local grocery's bags (I grab a bunch from the store's recycling bin 'cause I bring reusable bags to the store) often have little holes in them, and invariably, wet trash will leak inside the cabinet if you just use those hooks without anything beneath the bag. Plus the simplehuman frame holds the bag open so you don't end up getting yuck all over the inside of your cabinet door. It's a bit pricey, at around $30, but I'll never go back to a regular trash can in the kitchen (now that we have a dog, it's even more important to have our trash behind closed doors!).
As for the bathroom cabinet, being only 4" or so deep, I find it easier to organize by using those little plastic boxes made for the purpose, in different sizes. You can easily take one out and rummage around in it for what you want to use. Great for organizing small like things together. I use a taller plastic container on the lowest shelf for toothpase and toothbrush next to tall bottles. I just wish most bath cabinets came with more shelves, so you could store more small stuff easily.
I get you about the leaky plastic bags. The simple human bag holders help with this, but I hate having to open the door to throw stuff away, and don't want to smell up the inside of my cupboard. And I need all the cupboard space to store cleaning items. I have the floor space for a free-standing can, and I LOVE my simple human foot pedal can with lid. Best household purchase of the past few years. Pricy, but worth it. Lid would also keep out pets, unless they are smart enough to use the foot pedal.
I use those little stainless steel hanging baskets on the inside doors of my lower cupboards for storing lids to pots in my pots cupboards, and small cleaning items under the sink. Yes, you see the little hanging tabs on the outside, but the organization is worth it to me.
I use an over-the-door stainless rack with 5 hooks to hang towels in a bathroom without sufficient wall space for the usual towel bars. Actually, there are some towel bars along one wall, but as the very old bath has no storage, other than a small medicine cabinet, I put narrow furniture storage on that wall just beneath the towel bars, making them unusuable for towels. The back of the door works great for hanging towels.
I used the same rack for hanging jackets on the back of my entry door in my last apartment. They are great racks, but only fit on some doors, where the gap between the door and the frame is big enough to accommodate the depth of the hooks - most of my doors fit to tightly for the racks, or I'd use more of them.
The unfortunate part of storing shoes on the backs of doors is that they weigh a TON and will eventually stretch your hinges out and the door won't close. I had to remove mine from the back of my closet door and do the plastic see through box thing with them.
I've had my over-the-door shoe organizer (like the one shown) and I love it. I haven't had a problem with the door or anything. In our previous place, I had a wall of Ikea Pax units with their clear front shoeboxes. It was gorgeous and fancy. However we downsized and I couldn't justify giving that much space to my shoe collection. It's not as glamourous, but it keeps my shoes in order, and is super handy.
Here's what I did with my spices. It doesn't save a lot of space, but it keeps them organized. I drove right past the Container Store and went to my local dollar store and stocked up on a dozen rectangular plastic bins - varying in size from about 4 x 8 inches to some that are almost as big as shoeboxes. I then grouped my spices by cuisine and use.
Cayenne, cumin, coriander and various chile powders all go in the Latin cooking box. My traditional spices, such as thyme, oregano, marjoram, mustard seed, etc. go in another. I have one for indian food with fenugreek, various curries, ginger, etc.
Then I have another for baking: cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, baking powder, baking soda, arrowroot, vanilla beans and extracts, etc. This makes it so easy; I can't believe I never thought of it before! When I'm making Mexican food, I just pull out that one bin and usually everything I need is right there. The same with Indian food or Thai.
Oh, and I have another for rubs and odd spices like berbere, blackening spices, za'atar, etc.
If I run out of coriander (which happens quite often, oddly), I keep the jar and re-stock it so that I have coriander in both my Indian and Mexican bins. This has been the biggest time-saver for me and if I'm looking up a new recipe, I can just quickly pull out the appropriate container to see if I have everything I need.
Some of these look like they would work. My issue is that I find it disturbing how some people feel the need to hide away all boxes and cans even when they are in the pantry. The pantry's purpose is to hide that stuff, not sure why there is a need to hide those things in baskets or put cereal in jars or plastic bins. It's one thing to have an organized pantry, but posting pictures of OCD pantrys where you can hardly tell there is food in it b/c it is all hidden, is over the top.
@sisterfunkhaus - we decant all our stuff into jars and containers because we get those little brown kitchen bugs otherwise. They can eat holes in paper packaging and thin plastic too - thicker plastic like that which cereal comes in they can't eat through, but even when we have the packaging rolled up and clipped if we have an infestation they manage to worm their way in. I can go ages without baking so I don't want my baking stuff to get bugs/weevils etc.
And it can be very space saving when you have containers designed to stack/fit together, which original packaging isn't. Also, baskets can be useful for those little packets of seasonings/stock etc that don't come in jars and will just fall all over the place otherwise.It's also a way of making lots of little things take up way less space in total - not everyone has much room in their pantry!
So don't be so disparaging about 'OCD pantries' - they're not that OCD! People live in different climates and with different needs. I'm the least OCD person, because I'm kind of a slob, and I must admit - I don't use stackable plastic containers. I use glass jars which are way less practical, but much prettier:) Also I've been having bad luck buying plastic containers that don't off-gas even ages after buying and washing.
the ideas are good to work with and come up with your own original ideas that would work in your space. i hate crap on the frig and this would work for me. m

$40 for Whale Watching Tour, Whale Museum Visit, and Whale Adoption Package for One ($80 Value)
During the 90-minute whale watching tour, a pair of six-passenger speedboats head out to roam the waters around Depoe Bay. These excursions are led by Carrie Newell, a marine biologist who can give you the name and bio of each gray whale that motors by. She provides jackets, hats, and gloves for everyone on the tour, as well as waterproof blankets for warmth.
Along with more information about gray whales, the exhibits in the Whale, Sea Life & Shark Museum include factoids about sharks, seabirds, and pinnipeds. You'll also receive a gray whale adoption package, which includes an 8"x10" photo of your whale, an adoption certificate, a 20% discount on your next whale watching tour, and two tickets for your next trip to the museum.
Whale Research EcoExcursions
As a kid, marine biologist and gray whale researcher Carrie Newell dreamed of working on Jacques Cousteau's team. In 2004, that dream approached reality when Jean-Michel Cousteau, Jacques's son, asked Carrie to contribute her groundbreaking research to The Gray Whale Obstacle Course, an episode in the first season of his PBS series. Carrie continues to share her passion and knowledge for gray whales on daily, year-round trips through Whale Research EcoExcursions. After an educational talk, Carrie invites up to six guests to board a six-person ex-coast guard Zodiac and venture into waters where gray whales swim during summer feasts and winter migrations. Carrie also teaches patrons about marine life through her Whale, Sea Life & Shark Museum, which she stocks with her extensive collection of shark, seabird, sea lion, seal, and gray whale artifacts.

WORCESTER Three members of a group associated with Clark University died in a vehicle accident in Haiti Wednesday, and two were injured, according to school officials.
There's no such thing as road safety in Haiti, sadly deadly car crashes are par the course in that country, as anyone familiar with it knows. It's rare for events in Haiti to make the news here, and I'm sad it took losing people from my alma mater for this to be brought to local attention, my prayers and condolences are with the families and the departments involved. Every time a crash shows up on the news in America, I only hope it brings us one step closer to something being done about it. Usually the furor over it dies down after a short time, but maybe this can galvanize the Clark community into taking a stand for safety, though accomplishing anything there is like one step forward, ten steps back.

NBA Feet: Around The League – 2/13 – 2/14
February 15th, 2012 by John Kim | 14 comments
Linsanity has overwhelmed the NBA and pro-sports newsreel as the Asian sensation continues to prove that his six-game streak is no fluke. On Valentine's Day, Jeremy Lin blew a kiss of death to Raptors fans with a game-winning three-pointer to finish off the game while wearing the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2011 Low (with rumors of a 'Linsanity' PE swirling around). Amare Stoudemire and his Nike Air Max Sweep Thru was welcomed back into the line-up as he contributed a very Amare-like stat-line of 21 and 9. LeBron James rocked a Red/Black PE of the Nike LeBron 9 as the Heat finally turned the table on the Bucks, while the Wizards' Jordan Crawford switched up his rotation by wearing the Nike Huarache Free Bball 2012 in the Black/Royal colorway. Of course, we've got a lot more for you below, like Al Harrington's LeBron 9 iD, Amir Johnson's White/Red Kobe VII, and Nate Robinson's Air Jordan X, so check out some of the best NBA kicks from the previous two nights and let us know who rocked the best kicks! via Yahoo!
