It's ultra-fine mist provides color control. Apply color straight-from-the-can our use our simple application techniques to create unique finishes. FAQs How should I apply COLORTOOL spray on Styrofoam™ brand foam and fresh flowers? To ensure safe application on these delicate items be certain to maintain a spraying distance of approximately 18". Are there metallic colors that can be used on Styrofoam and fresh flowers? Yes, there is a collection of COLORTOOL METALS that have the same Styrofoam and flower friendly properties. See their color swatches on the link above. Some silk flowers have a latex or vinyl coating; can I use COLORTOOL Sprays on them? COLORTOOL Sprays are not suitable on vinyl or latex coated items. If sprayed directly onto vinyl or latex the paint will not dry due to an incompatibility between the spray and the surface. However, prior to application, a coating of Design Master SUPER SURFACE SEALER will act as a barrier between the two finishes and allow it to dry. Are COLORTOOL Sprays non-toxic? Yes, all Design Master Sprays are non-toxic when dry. Be sure to apply the sprays in a well-ventilated area and follow the directions on the label. When can I repaint a sprayed surface? Recoat at ANY time. Design Master Sprays are modified lacquer-based products. As additional coats are applied they re-solubilize the previous painted layers to bond together, not just sit on top of one another. How do you clean up or remove DESIGN MASTER Sprays? Use a solvent such as acetone or paint thinner to remove Design Master sprays.

Hi really needing some help here. I've searched for months for solutions but now im having to ask for direct help.
My iphone has a broken home button. Originally I jailbreaked it by opening it up and shorting the button to enter DFU then jailbreaking that way. Then the jailbreak became outdated and started to glitch so I tried to rejailbreak using the alterted NOR (part of ipsw) method as described here:
Initially it did enter DFU then I tried to jailbreak using an ultrasn0w (i think it was along time ago). The phone now boots up to a snowflake then stays at the flake for a few minutes before rebooting and the loop continues.
It is not detected by the PC (even by recboot), it wont enter DFU (even when opening and sorting the button again) letting it power down and restart also has no effect.
Ive seen a number of people in similar situations on various forums and comments.
Is there any hope??
Thanks for any help.

The hacking collective's latest campaign against Israel escalates, with defacements of Microsoft Israel Web sites and the publication of alleged donors to a pro-Israel group.
The countries say they want to ensure that a "crisis" doesn't develop between them in the event important servers are accessed.
Unusual activity was seen in the paper's computer systems during a probe on China's prime minister. The Times then discovered that the corporate passwords for every employee had been stolen.

1031 Abbot Kinney Blvd, Venice, CA | Directions 9029133.992245 -118.471486
Lunch: Mon - Sat, 12pm - 2:30pm; Dinner: Mon - Thu, 6pm - 10pm; Fri, Sat, 6pm - 10:30pm; Sun, 5:30pm - 9:30pm Brunch: Sun, 11am - 2:30pm; Happy hour: Daily, 5pm - 7:30pm
Neighborhoods: West LA, Venice
Tucked privately away on Abbot Kinney's most popular stretch, Lily's brunch will always satisfy and the outdoor beautiful garden will make even the most seasoned Angeleno feel thankful for our diversity and climate.
Better go early on Saturday. We arrived at 6:45pm and left at 8:30; it was packed.
Never Again – Despite the fact that Rubempre's review was written some time ago, I'm here to tell you nothing has changed since he or she wrote that review. I went to Lilly's about 2 weeks ago and had the absolute worst service I've EVER had - rude, disorganized, inattentive. After the better part of an hour, my lunch had still not arrived, it seems the waiter never gave the order to the kitchen. And, not once during those 40 minutes did my waiter stop by my table to check on my order or my needs. Nor did he apologize in any way for his oversight. In fact, it seemed to be a huge inconvenience to him that I actually expected to receive food at all.
There are way too many good places to eat on Abbot Kinney to put up with this, and if they're all busy, go to Main Street. I'm done with Lilly's. I'll never go back.
Beware Mondays--maybe every day – I brought our group of eight here for a celebratory business dinner--a well-traveled, upscale group--and ended up embarassed by the listless greeting, the indifferent waitress (an 18 percent tip was added automatically, perhaps explaining her lack of engagement) and food that ranged from near-inedible (lobster bisque that seemingly was made from near-spoiled ingredients, flavorless and possibly defrosted duck, cold tuna dish) to adequate (filet mignon, pesto-crusted whitefish). Decent wine selection at a predictable 2x the store shelf price. Our bottled water was unceremoniously dumped on the table for us to pour, each course arrived via confused barking from brusque staff. A bad experience from a place we once loved. Wish Joe's had been open. Our advice--seek alternatives.
the best ever – i was last at the new lounge at lillys.
we have a great time and great food the satff very good but the food amazing. we get disturb by one angry client but i acn tell you the staff and the owner did everything to make him happy and even offer wine to him. i will com back because the atmosphere and the food fel like in france. I really love it
Not worth your time or money! – Was always one of our favorite places to eat when walking on Abbot Kinney. Went with the family 12-27 and the place has changed. Service was pathetic, the waiter forgot one of the meals, no refills on the drinks, food was over cooked. Do not waste your time. Wait for a new manager or the owner to take notice and make some changes.
Poor service makes good food difficult to enjoy. – In a great neighbourhood we were expecting the typical excellent service you experience on most of Abbott Kinney. Sadly, this was NOT the case at Lilly's. There was no reccomendation for wine; and it seemed a strange request to the servers. The food was slow coming from the kitchen, the bread basket went un-refilled, and any change to the menu seemed especially challenging. Then there was dessert ....20 minutes for creme brule and ice cream. All of this could be accepted if they were overflowing with patrons but that was not the case. Our meals were good but not excellent and we won't be running back anytime soon.
Put A Bigger Smile On My Face! – For some, it's all about the food. For me, it's always about the atmosphere...
This place made me smile so big as soon as I walked in - the energy is great, it's quaint, no fuss, no lines, just good old fashioned neighborhood charm, in other words, perfect!
Excellent! – I really like this place. I've been twice with my girlfriends and it's a great plae to go for wine and aps! Hoaary!!!
They Serve Foie Gras: And They Should Stop – I'm a local Venice resident and I like Lily's. However, I'm very very disturbed that they serve Foie Gras. For those of you that don't know this is a food product which is created by a disturbing torturous method that needs to be banned just to preserve some basic humanity in our farms. It requires the force feeding of geese with a medal feeding tube that causes regurgitation, painful lacerations, organ failure, lung failure, and sometimes the explosion of internal organs. These birds are kept heavily confined, force feed, and die long painful deaths. As a local resident who knows that many Venetians would never support such an awful practice, Lilly's should follow in the footsteps of Wolfgang Puck and refuse to serve it. I am so very disappointed in Lilly's for supporting Foie Gras production. Such a shame, I cannot urge anyone to go their until they stop.
Ridiculous. – We sat under a piece of art work twenty feet long made of neon bright melted plastic and squashed solo cups. The entire night was unbelievably distracting because, and I am not joking- as the staff would stampede past us in their flurry to and from the kitchen to the outside patio, their feet stomped and the floors bounced. It was like sitting amongst a herd of elephants.
Then, because I had read on this site many reviews that said the food was just ok and the waiters were terrible (yes Joe's and Axe were booked and we had to stay on Abbot Kinney)- I was persistent to even get our order in. I must say the best part of the night were the polite and attentive bus boys- but unfortunately the maitre-de and our waitress were as expected: the maitre-de claimed we had no reservation (try getting in any where on Abbot Kinney before 9:30p without one) until finally I found my name on his log... I had asked our waitress for a glass of HOUSE white wine- she described some blah blah blah french wine and I asked again- is this the HOUSE wine? I was assured yes- got two VERY small glasses of wine (1/2 the size of the water glasses) then got the bill for $15 each glass. I made sure to take the over priced "house" wine out of her tip. Side note- my friend who had ordered a cup of coffee with her dinner was not offered ONE refill all night- I suppose that was because they didn't charge $15 a cup. When I finally asked for a fresh cup, our classy waitress brought the entire huge thermos to our table to splash in a 3 hour old re-fill.
Unfortunately the reviews were right: atmosphere has no soul, the FLOORS shook all night and the wait staff pounded past the tables, the waitress was a shyster, and the food was forgettable. Next time Joe's and Axe are booked and you have $95 to spend on a bowl of pasta, dinner salad, a piece of fish, two glasses of wine and a cup of coffee... go to Main Street.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans enter 2014 with a profoundly negative view of their government, expressing little hope that elected officials can or will solve the nation's biggest problems, a new poll finds.
Half say America's system of democracy needs either "a lot of changes" or a complete overhaul, according to the poll conducted by the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. Just 1 in 20 says it works well and needs no changes.
Americans, who have a reputation for optimism, have a sharply pessimistic take on their government after years of disappointment in Washington.
The percentage of Americans saying the nation is heading in the right direction hasn't topped 50 in about a decade. In the new poll, 70 percent lack confidence in the government's ability "to make progress on the important problems and issues facing the country in 2014."
The poll comes about two months after partisan gridlock prompted the first government shutdown in 17 years.
People feel somewhat better about their personal lives. Most have at least some confidence that they'll be able to handle their own problems in the coming year. A narrow majority say they'd do a better job running the country than today's leaders in Washington.
Local and state governments inspire more faith than the federal government, according to the poll, with 45 percent at least moderately confident in their state government and 54 percent expressing that much confidence in their local government.
When asked to name up to 10 world or national problems they would "like the government to be working on" in 2014, Americans chiefly cite issues that have dominated — and often flummoxed — the White House and Congress for five years. Health care reform topped the list. It is likely, however, that those naming the issue include both opponents and supporters of President Barack Obama's sweeping health care overhaul.
Jobs and the economy were next, followed by the nation's debt and deficit spending.
Some issues that draw ample media and campaign attention rank lower in the public's priorities. No more than 3 percent of Americans listed gay rights, abortion or domestic spying as prime topics for government action.
Regardless of the issue, however, Americans express remarkably little confidence that the federal government can make real progress.
For instance, 86 percent of those who called health care reform a top priority said they want the government to put "a lot" or "a great deal" of effort into it. But about half of them (49 percent) are "not at all confident" there will be real progress, and 20 percent are only "slightly confident."
This yawning gap between public desires and expectations is one of the poll's most striking findings. Even on an issue completely within the federal government's control, the budget and national debt, 65 percent of those who called it a priority say they have no confidence in the government's ability to fix it. Another 20 percent are only "slightly confident."
When it comes to the issues people cited as most important to them, 80 percent want the government to spend significant effort working on them. Yet 76 percent say they have little or no confidence the government will make real progress.
But asked generally about the role of government in society, the AP-NORC Center poll finds Americans divided on how active they want government to be. Half say "the less government the better." However, almost as many (48 percent) say "there are more things that government should be doing."
On the economy, an area historically driven by the private sector, the poll finds a clear public desire for active government. Fifty-seven percent of Americans say "we need a strong government to handle today's complex economic problems."
Even among those who say "the less government the better," 31 percent feel the nation needs a strong government to handle those complex problems.
Americans don't feel terribly optimistic about their own economic opportunities. Although 49 percent say their standard of living surpasses their parents', most are broadly pessimistic about the opportunity to achieve the American Dream. And they are mixed on whether people like them have a good chance to improve their standard of living.
Few are hopeful that the pieces are in place for the government to improve. About half are pessimistic about the country's ability to produce strong leaders generally. And 61 percent are pessimistic about the system of government overall and the way leaders are chosen.
Kathy Wooters of Houston's Kingwood community is among those who think the federal government should just get out of the way.
"We have too big of a government. I'd like it to be less in control of our lives," said Wooters, 57, a mother of four and grandmother of nine. "We are adults," she said. "We can make wise decisions with our money," rather than have the federal government dictate insurance choices and dole out more assistance to those who "want everything for free."
Wooters, a Republican and tea party supporter, said she taught her children to fend for themselves and avoid debt.
The AP-NORC Center poll was conducted online Dec. 12-16 among a random national sample of 1,141 adults. The survey has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points for all respondents.
The survey was conducted by GfK using KnowledgePanel, a probability-based Internet panel designed to be representative of the U.S. population. Respondents to the survey were first selected randomly, using phone or mail survey methods, and were later interviewed online. People selected for KnowledgePanel who didn't otherwise have access to the Internet were provided with the ability to access the Internet at no cost to them.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court has thrown a hitch into President Barack Obama's new health care law by blocking a requirement that some religion-affiliated organizations provide health insurance that includes birth control.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor late Tuesday night decided to block implementation of the contraceptive coverage requirement, only hours before the law's insurance coverage went into effect on New Year's Day.
Her decision, which came after federal court filings by Catholic-affiliated groups from around the nation in hopes of delaying the requirements, throws a part of the president's signature law into temporary disarray. At least one federal appeals court agreed with Sotomayor, issuing its own stay against part of the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.
The White House on Wednesday issued a statement saying that the administration is confident that its rules "strike the balance of providing women with free contraceptive coverage while preventing non-profit religious organizations with religious objections to contraceptive coverage from having to contract, arrange, pay, or refer for such coverage."
Sotomayor acted on a request from an organization of Catholic nuns in Denver, the Little Sisters of the Poor Home for the Aged. Its request for an emergency stay had been denied earlier in the day by a federal appeals court.
The government is "temporarily enjoined from enforcing against applicants the contraceptive coverage requirements imposed by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act," Sotomayor said in the order.
Sotomayor, who was in New York Tuesday night to lead the final 60-second countdown and push the ceremonial button to signal the descent of the Times Square New Year's Eve ball, gave government officials until 10 a.m. EST Friday to respond to her order. A decision on whether to make the temporary injunction permanent or dissolve it likely won't be made before then.
"The government has lots of ways to deliver contraceptives to people," said Mark Rienzi, a lawyer for the nuns. "It doesn't need to force nuns to participate."
Under the health care law, most health insurance plans have to cover all FDA-approved contraceptives as preventive care for women. That means the coverage is provided free of charge.
Churches and other houses of worship are exempt from the birth control requirement, but affiliated institutions that serve the general public are not. That includes charitable organizations, universities and hospitals.
The requirement prompted an outcry from religious groups, which led the administration to try to craft a compromise. Under that compromise, insurers or health plan administrators must provide birth control coverage, and the religious institution itself is not responsible.
But the administration's compromise did not satisfy some critics, who called it a fig leaf.
The nuns would have to sign a form authorizing their insurance company to provide contraceptive coverage, which would still violate their beliefs, Rienzi said.
"Without an emergency injunction, Mother Provincial Loraine Marie Maguire has to decide between two courses of action: (a) sign and submit a self-certification form, thereby violating her religious beliefs; or (b) refuse to sign the form and pay ruinous fines," Rienzi said.
The Little Sisters operate homes for the elderly poor in the United States and around the world. They were joined in their lawsuit by religious health benefit providers, Christian Brothers Services and Christian Brothers Employee Benefits Trust.
Sotomayor's decision to delay the contraceptive portion of the law was joined by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, which also issued an emergency stay for Catholic-affiliated groups challenging the contraceptive provision, including the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C., and Catholic University.
But one judge on the three-judge panel that made the decision, Judge David S. Tatel, said he would have denied their motion.
"Because I believe that appellants are unlikely to prevail on their claim that the challenged provision imposes a `substantial burden' under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, I would deny their application for an injunction pending appeal," Tatel said.
The archdiocese praised the appeals court's action in a statement.
"This action by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit is in line with the rulings of courts all across the country which have held that the HHS mandate imposes a substantial and impermissible burden on the free exercise of religion," the archdiocese said. "These decisions also vindicate the pledge of the U.S. Catholic bishops to stand united in resolute defense of the first and most sacred freedom - religious liberty."
The Supreme Court already has decided to rule on whether businesses may use religious objections to escape a requirement to cover birth control for employees. That case, which involves Hobby Lobby Inc., an Oklahoma City-based arts and crafts chain with 13,000 full-time employees, is expected to be argued in March and decided by summer.

Home > iPad sections for iPad app > Local lifestyles for the iPad app
One of the great delights of autumn is the abundance of fresh, ripe, local and delicious apples. Of course, they're available year-round these days, but they're at their best right now, not least because there are more varieties to choose from in the fall, especially if you take advantage of your neighborhood farmers market.
Start to finish: 1 hour 10 minutes (30 minutes active) Servings:6
2 medium apples (about 1 pound), peeled, cored, quartered and thinly sliced
¹/3 cup dried cranberries, cherries or raisins
5 tablespoons maple syrup (preferably Grade B), divided
3 tablespoons brandy, bourbon or rum, divided (optional)
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon cornstarch
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch table salt
2 large egg whites, room temperature
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1. Heat the oven to 450 F.
2. In a 9-inch round shallow baking dish, combine the apples, cranberries, 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup and 2 tablespoons of the brandy, if using. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the middle of the oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a paring knife goes through the apples very easily. Remove the apples from the oven and increase the oven heat to 500 F.
3. While the apples are baking, in a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, remaining 3 tablespoons maple syrup, remaining tablespoon of brandy, the cornstarch, vanilla and salt. Set aside.
4. Once the apples are tender, in another medium bowl, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Stir one half of the whites into the yolk mixture, then gently but thoroughly fold in the remaining whites. Spread the mixture evenly over the apples.
5. Place the brown sugar in a mesh sieve. Hold the sieve above the egg topping and press the sugar through it to evenly sprinkle it over the topping. Bake the dessert in the top third of the oven until nicely browned, about 2 minutes. Serve right away.
Start to finish: 1 hour Servings: 6
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 medium apples, peeled, cored and diced
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup arborio rice
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup sugar
½ cup diced candied ginger
4 cups milk, divided
1. In a medium saucepan over medium-high, melt the butter. Add the apples and cinnamon and saute until browned and caramelized, about 7 minutes.
2. Add the rice and stir to coat. Add the salt, sugar, ginger and 1 cup of the milk. Lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until almost all of the milk has been absorbed. Add another cup of milk and repeat with the stirring and cooking until almost entirely absorbed. Repeat with the remaining milk, 1 cup at a time, or until the rice is cooked through and the mixture is creamy.
3. Serve warm and, if desired, topped with whipped cream or ice cream.

Tecnam Introduces P92 Classic Light, Announces 12-Plane P2008 Order
P92 Classic Light
By Marino Boric, EAA 1069644, EAA European Correspondent
December 20, 2012 - Italian manufacturer Tecnam announced its P92 aircraft is now available in the Classic Light ultralight/microlight version, priced at the "flyaway" price of $74,900 U.S.
The P92 Classic Light is the seventh generation of the P92, which celebrates 20 years of production. It differs from the original by the choice of the less-powerful 80-hp Rotax 912 instead of the 100-hp, and a lighter, less expensive propeller.
The Classic Light also has a shorter engine cowling with smaller prop spacer, basic interiors, lightweight carbon fiber seats, lighter 4-inch wheels and brakes, and simpler exterior painting. The shorter wing is 28.5 feet long, nearly 2 feet shorter than the Classic model.
The P92 Classic Light LSA configuration is delivered at 595 pounds empty weight with MTOW of 1,047 pounds.
The P92 worldwide fleet counts nearly 2,000 airplanes in both ULM/LSA and VLA categories, with 200,000 hours flown. The P92 Classic Light is the 13th variant and follows on from the launch earlier this year of both the P92 taildragger and P92 Sea-Sky Hydroplane.
"We have built our reputation at Tecnam on producing aeroplanes that offer outstanding value," said Paolo Pascale, Tecnam's managing director. "Our latest P92 model, the P92 Classic Light, is assured of a warm welcomed by the microlight pilot community."
Tecnam also recently announced that the Aero-Club Air France has placed an order for 12 Tecnam P2008JC CS/VLA single-engine, four-place airplanes, adding to its previous order of 25. The P2008 is the first Tecnam to use metal wings and a metal stabilator with a composite fuselage.
The first three deliveries, slated for the first quarter of 2013, will be night VFR-equipped. Final TC from EASA is expected in May 2013.

Good scrub pants but NEEDS MORE POCKETS
I needed some scrub pants for work and these fit me perfectly. The size chart for the scrub pants is accurate. The navy blue color is nice and the contrasting color draw string gives the pants a nice accent. Like the previous reviewer, I need more pockets that's why I knocked off one star. I hope that Crocs reads this so that they could develop a newly designed scrub pants with more pockets. It would be nice to have a back pocket, 2 thigh slash pockets and 2 hand pockets like the regular scrub pants that are commercially bought. I work as a registered nurse and I always carry alcohol swabs, bandage scissors, saline flushes, my wallet, hospital cellphone and pens...and additional pockets are a must! Crocs, please redesign your scrub pants. Otherwise, the scrub bottoms from Crocs are a good buy. I would recommend them.

Loooove these scrubs!
I was looking for some surgical-style scrubs that were comfy, yet cute. Stumbled upon these and immediately fell in love. I always wear a size small in women's scrub pants (Dickie's brand) and was a little hesitant to see how these would fit considering they are unisex. I ordered a size small in the royal blue color and sky blue color. I received them in the mail and they are absolutely perfect! I'm about 5'6" and wear a size 6-8 in pants and these fit me great. They are kind of loose at the waist but the drawstring helps. The rise is a mid-rise which is a little higher than I am used to but they are still very comfortable with a little stretch. The inseam is long, maybe around a 31or 32 (my guess), but again it is unisex so it's understandable. Luckily, both pairs of pants fit me the same as I have had experiences with the same brand and the same size fitting different from each other. What I was a little confused about was that the sky blue pants came with a pre-sewn slit on the bottom sides of the pant legs to help fit over shoes, but the royal blue pants did not come with the slit on the bottom sides. Overall, I am very satisfied with these scrubs and will be looking forward to ordering more!

Soo Comfortable
Wish I could get every color to match my crocs. Can only wear Navy and was glad to see the uniform line start. Just got a top to match and can't wait for it. Agree with more pockets. Never enough . Scissor's pocket would be helpful as they usually wedge in the pocket sideways and are hard to get out when stuck.

Needs More Pockets
Needs two side slash pockets. Nurses need more pockets. I have 9 pair of crocs all different colors and I get my scrub pants to match. The second most impotant thing to matching my Crocs and scrub pants is that I have enough pockets. At least two side slash pockets and 1 large leg pocket for pens, papers, instuments, and what not. Need side slash pockets for little personal things like a buck or 2 to grab a soda or quick snack, my eye drops, extra paper clips, locker key. Hope Corcs reads this. add the two side slash pockets and I'm in. Then we can work on colors.

Instructional Objective Participants will learn the names, faces, and quirks of a group of future in-laws.
Learners/Context The game is designed for four adults who are eager to play.
Sophia Pondolfini, from Brooklyn, is engaged to Shamus O'Reilly from San Diego. Alas, the potato famine has taken its toll on the O'Reillys, leaving just Shamus, his brother Sean, and their parents, Grady and Maureen. Sophia, on the other hand, has an abundance of relatives. She is concerned that the O'Reillys will be overwhelmed when they visit Brooklyn prior to the nuptials. To insure that the event will be an enjoyable one, she has devised a card game called Relatively Speaking that the O'Reillys can play before the trip. The game will allow them to match faces, names and quirks of 50 Pondolfini family members.
It just so happens that Sophia's cousin Gina Loiabridgida is a photographer and that she took individual photographs of 50 family members at the last Pondolfini Sunday dinner. The local print shop owner (who still has healthy kneecaps) owes Gina's cousin Rocco a favor, and has agreed to print the cards and other items for Sophia.
Rationale A card game lends itself to this application because it is compact, can be played anywhere, and is suitable for small groups like the O'Reillys. They can play the game for short periods of time. The rules are familiar and the cost is not prohibitive.
Rules The game is of the poker/rummy class and is patterned after the "go fish" type of card game.
Starting with the player to the dealer's left, deal 5 cards to each player. Place the remainder of the deck face down on the table. Give each player a stack of tokens. Each player checks to see if he or she has any pairs of cards. The player to the dealer's left (Player 1) begins the game by placing any matching pair(s) face up on the table and placing a token in the proper place on the Family Tree. Whether or not Player 1 has any pairs, he or she then asks the person to his or her left (Player 2) to "Give me Uncle Carmine" (or cousin Guido, or . . .). If Player 2 does not have the requested card, he or she tells Player 1 to "Go pick a relative." Player 1 then draws a card from the stack on the table. Player 1's turn ends (even if the card drawn matches a card in his or her hand). If Player 2 has the requested card, he or she must surrender it to Player 1. Player 1 places the pair on the table, places a token on the Family Tree, and asks Player 2 for another relative. Player 1's turn continues until Player 2 tells him or her to "Go pick a relative."
Play continues until a player has no more cards. The remaining players must give the cards to that player who places any matching pairs on the table and token(s) on the Family Tree. Player 1 becomes the dealer and deals 5 cards from the stack to each player. The player to his or her left becomes Player 1. Play continues as in step 2 (above). When the stack on the table contains 20 cards or less, the dealer deals only 3 cards to each player.
The game ends when each player still has cards but cannot get a matching card from the person to his or her left and there are no more cards on the table from which a player can "pick a relative." Combine all the remaining cards from each player and place the matching pairs on the table (don't put any tokens on the Family Tree). The player with the most tokens on the Family Tree wins the game.
Card and Deck Design There are 100 cards in the deck (50 pair). The Family Tree is a piece of plastic, approximately 18" square, with pictures of Sophia's parents in the center, and the rest of the relatives arranged relatively. The circular tokens are four different designs: a bottle of Chianti, a plate of spaghetti, an antipasto, and a cup of espresso (with anisette).
Design Process I began with three cards per relative, but decided it was too cumbersome. I originally planned to have the players place the pairs of cards and a token on the Family Tree, but the the tree would have been wall-sized! Smaller cards would have been too difficult to hold. The first plan did not include the Family Tree, but I decided to add it to increase the likelihood that the O'Reillys would better retain names and faces. The small photo in the upper-right corner makes it easier to hold the cards. The matching process requires the players to associate names with faces. An addition to the game might be a wild card, perhaps a "Godfather" card, that would give the holder extra points at the end of the game.

Rafael Nadal advances to singles final in Chile
VINA DEL MAR, Chile (AP) -- Rafael Nadal beat Jeremy Chardy 6-2, 6-2 on Saturday, putting the Spaniard in both finals of the VTR Open after a seven-month layoff due to a left knee injury and a stomach virus.
Nadal and Juan Monaco won their doubles semifinal on Friday, meaning Nadal is scheduled to play twice on Sunday. He will face Argentine Horacio Zeballos in the singles final and Italy's Paolo Lorenzi and Potito Starace in doubles.
The former No. 1 has played six matches in five days and has yet to drop a set.

Dr. James A. and Lorna Will have shown their dedication to the City of Columbus and the Columbus Public Library with a generous gift of $10,000 to go toward the much anticipated library parking lot project.
In May the library's request for funding the parking lot project was denied by the City Council on the basis that the project should have been included in the 2013 City budget and could not be added halfway through the fiscal year. With plans to follow City protocol and add the project to their 2014 budget request, the library's Board of Trustees let the matter rest after that May Council meeting.
Library Board member Lorna Will was not content to lose the opportunity to create a safer parking situation for the library in 2013, however. Identifying a $10,000 gap in the funding required to do the project this year, Lorna and her husband James took it upon themselves to fill that gap. Their gift was presented to the library on Friday, July 19.
With this gift, the library is moving forward with plans for the parking lot. Representatives of the library will attend the City Council meeting on Monday, August 5 to help usher the project forward.
The Wills' donation comes on the heels of City Administrator Patrick Vander Sanden's budget preview for the City Council that predicted another challenging budget season for Columbus. Library Board of Trustees President Peter Kaland notes, "By building the parking lot in 2013, with the help of Lorna and James' gift, the library won't have to request the additional parking lot funding in what looks like another tight fiscal year in 2014."
With the addition of the parking lot in 2013 in the works, the library is turning its sights to the area that will connect the lot with the main building entrance on James Street. For 2014 it is considering plans for the city's first Wi-Fi garden, an outdoor seating area that allows people to make use of the library's free wireless service without stepping foot in the library itself. The garden area can also be used for family snack times and may incorporate an aspect of outdoor play for little ones.
As for now, Kelsey Johnson-Kaiser, the library's Youth Services Director couldn't be happier. "This parking lot adds peace of mind for families visiting the library. Not having to get kids out of the car on Hwy 16/60 means we're that much more accessible for library lovers of all ages and abilities."
Lorna Will has been an on-again-off-again member of the Library Board of Trustees for many decades, since the 1970's. According to Cindy Fesemyer, Library Director, "Lorna and Jim's donation means there will be no more winters without a library parking lot in Columbus. Plus, their timing was perfect. Assuming the lot plans move forward without too many hitches, there should be just enough time to build the lot before the first snowfall."

I would choose Asda over any other supermarket. Just make sure you find a big one with plenty of choice.
Love M&S' stock these days. A little overpriced on occasion, quite good in the sales.
Ian found this review useful
Don't miss a Next sale. Incredible value!
I can go into Primark and look at everything and yet find *nothing* to buy ... they seem to have gone downhill as it didn't use to be like this. Also, prices have gone up a lot. There is very little difference in price between Primark and, say, H&M, but H&M sells much nicer stuff.
Having spent a summer whilst at uni working in Primark, I can also say that it's a pretty rubbish place to work as well!
John Lewis can often be overpriced. Yet they have very good reductions and some of their cheaper ranges (of glassware, for example) are both very low in price and very good quality. It's a strange mixture! Overall, a good shop!
Google all the way. I refuse to use any other search engine. Works best with Chrome.
Cheap is the only positive thing I could say about Ryanair. Their staff seem to enjoy seeing people struggle with baggage, never bother assisting. The baggage size check system is stupid (fortunately I did not get caught out but watched many others being ignored by staff when trying to use the ridiculous device). I have seen passengers refused boarding because of baggage, something I've seen with no other airline. Unhelpful, in a word.
Easy to use website, always delivers really quickly. Also, much better value for money than in shops/vets.
The item looks pretty good. I found the website easy to use and ordering is very straightforward. Delivery wasn't as quick as I expected but otherwise, I'm a happy customer!

What is Test Anxiety?
Test anxiety is a type of anxiety that can affect a test taker before, during, or after a test. It is an issue that many students deal with at one time or another.
Anxiety is a normal human feeling that is part of life, and can often serve as a good form of adrenaline-- for instance, butterflies before making a speech, taking a test, or performing on stage. However, there are methods how to overcome nervousness and anxiety when they interfere with performance.
Test anxiety can also be experienced at varying levels. Slight exam stress can help by providing alertness, readiness, and helping you to concentrate. However, excessive exam anxiety can result in stress and negatively affect performance.
Test anxiety, just like other types of anxiety, tends to occur like a wave. It will increase from the time you first recognize it, come to a peak, and then naturally subside. If test-taking anxiety persists and becomes problematic, it is a good idea to seek assistance from the school counselor or other professional resource available in your area. Calming nerves through learned techniques can ease the tension associated with this type of anxiety and can help greatly in overcoming test anxiety.
Two Types of Anxiety
Anticipatory Anxiety
This refers to distress experienced while studying and when thinking about what might happen when you take a test. This could make it almost impossible to concentrate and commit facts to memory.
Situational Anxiety
This form of anxiety occurs while taking a test or assessment like an oral or dance exam. This can cause physical distress, emotional upset, and concentration difficulties, all affecting your performance.

No. 96: Kentucky
By Paul Myerberg // May 24, 2012
Congratulations are in order for Kentucky. For the whole basketball thing, of course, but don't forget this: Kentucky is no longer the 11th-best program in the SEC – or 12th, if we believe Vanderbilt can continue building upon James Franklin's debut. Yes, congratulations: you did it, Kentucky. Today, after Mike Slive and the league's decision-makers added Missouri and Texas A&M, the Wildcats are the 13th-best program in the 14-team SEC – or 14th, dead last, under the same conditions as above. Hey, you win some and you lose some; in fact, the Wildcats have long been happy with simply winning one more game than they lose, unlike the overwhelming majority of the SEC. Today, with the SEC deeper than ever, the wins will be even harder to come by for Joker Phillips and the Wildcats. So… John Calipari's got a heck of a recruiting class coming in next year, huh?

And that's where we'll find Kentucky, once again: hovering around six wins, with four victories coming outside of the SEC and two – hopefully – coming in the SEC. It's nearly a guarantee, actually, that the Wildcats will land five wins from the non-conference slate and from Vanderbilt – though the Commodores look to be getting better quickly under James Franklin. Will Kentucky get that sixth win? It'll be a dogfight, as always, but perhaps the Wildcats deserve the benefit of the doubt. I'm guessing that U.K. will end the regular season 6-6, 2-6 in the SEC, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Wildcats get stuck at the five-win mark.
2011 recap
In a nutshell You had an idea that Kentucky wasn't a bowl contender as early as the first game of the season, when the Wildcats' sloppy and meandering play against Western Kentucky had a few Hilltoppers questioning whether U.K. was, in fact, part of the SEC. Kentucky would win that game and win again a week later, topping Central Michigan, before entering the offense-optional portion of the season – which would extend, with one happy exception, through the final 10 games of the year. The Wildcats would score more than 16 points only once during SEC play; would be held to single-digits three times, including over back-to-back weeks to start October; and would be outscored by 28 or more points four times, highlighted by a 30-point loss to Vanderbilt. The final result was five wins and the team's first non-bowl season since 2005, putting an end to the most decorated stretch in Kentucky's history. Technically, the final result was this: U.K. 10, Tennessee 7. You wouldn't believe it if you hadn't seen it with your own two eyes.
High point The win over Tennessee. Unexpected? Not in the general sense – Kentucky was terrible, but the Volunteers weren't any better. But over the decades, it seemed like there was one thing you could set your watch to when it came to the SEC: come rain or shine, U.T. was going to find a way to beat the Wildcats.
Low point It doesn't get much worse than a Sun Belt program – one with four wins over the last three years – questioning your conference affiliation. The year also featured Kentucky's first loss to Louisville since 2005, perhaps signaling a turn in the rivalry, as well as that 30-point loss to Vanderbilt.
Tidbit Kentucky is now 8-1 under Phillips when winning the turnover battle. This isn't surprising, but it does underline the idea that when it comes to winning games – something U.K. has done 11 times over the last two years – the Wildcats often need every advantage they can get, especially in terms of limiting their own mistakes. The lone loss came last fall, when U.K. was plus-three against Mississippi State, not committing a single turnover, yet still lost, 28-16. Perhaps trailing in turnover margin wasn't a big deal last fall, considering how U.K. suffered so many lopsided defeats; it was a huge story in 2010, when turnovers meant the difference in competitive losses to Mississippi, Georgia and Mississippi State.
Tidbit (Vanderbilt edition) Kentucky and Vanderbilt first met in 1896, when the Commodores pulled out a 6-0 victory, and have met in every season since 1953. Over this time, U.K. has notched five winning streaks of four or more games: 1964-67, 1971-74, 1976-81, 1996-99 and 2004-7. Unfortunately, last year's 30-point defeat was Kentucky's third-largest during this series' modern era – as always, using 1936 as the start of the modern era. It trails only a 34-0 loss in 1955 and a 42-6 loss in 1969.

Joker Phillips (Kentucky '86), 11-14 after two seasons. His first season found Kentucky picking right up where Rich Brooks left off, extending Kentucky's streak of bowl berths to five while, as under Brooks, not faring all that well in the SEC. The Wildcats took a step back last fall, failing to reach bowl eligibility for the first time since 2005 – ending the greatest stretch in program history. Phillips had been the coach-in-waiting since 2008, patiently waiting his turn under Brooks, who brought Phillips back to Lexington as part of his initial staff. Make no mistake: While Phillips has served at other, potentially more prestigious programs, he is all Kentucky. That dates back to his playing days as a wide receiver — he's one of the more prolific pass-catchers in school history — and his early days as an assistant, which began once his professional career concluded in 1988. Phillips spent the first nine years of his coaching career in Lexington, beginning as a graduate assistant before progressing to the team's receivers coach, where he spent six years from 1991-96. His tenure under Brooks, starting in 2003, began as Kentucky's recruiting coordinator and, again, receivers coach. He passed two years in that role before taking on offensive coordinator duties in 2005; he held that position through the end of 2009, though he shared play-calling duties in Kentucky's Music City Bowl loss to Clemson. Phillips has had a distinct impact on this side of the ball: Kentucky set a new school single-season record with 475 points in 2007 — 36.5 points per game. There were two key factors to appreciate about Phillips as he undertook his endeavor: one, he is a gifted offensive mind; and two, he had the opportunity to learn at the feet of one of this generation's most under-appreciated coaches.
Players to watch
Stop. Find a quarterback. Now. Kentucky doesn't just need to find its starting quarterback; Phillips and offensive coordinator Randy Sanders need to settle on a quarterback and stick with him, avoiding the sort of in-out-in-out rotation that can deprive this offense of any rhythm – and to say U.K. lacked rhythm in 2011 would be kind. It was worse than that: the Wildcats were absolutely inept offensively as a whole, and a healthy portion of the team's issues can be tied directly into the lack of consistent play from the quarterback position. So stop; find a quarterback; stick with him.
The biggest issue with this tack is that one contender for the starting role won't arrive on campus until the summer. Nearly every outlet has labeled incoming freshman Patrick Towles as Kentucky's future at the position; at least one went further, calling Towles the sort of once-in-a-generation talent who can do for U.K. what Tim Couch did more than a decade ago. Good luck living up to that sort of advance billing. But though Phillips might want to give Towles a redshirt, he might not have that option.
The jury remains out on the prospects of either senior Morgan Newton or sophomore Maxwell Smith as the Wildcats' starter. Newton got the nod heading into last September, but his season went horribly awry after a strong performance against Louisville – he completed 10 of 41 attempts in the losses to L.S.U. and South Carolina. Smith, then a true freshman, stepped in and started the final three games of last season after Newton suffered a shoulder injury against Mississippi State. Smith didn't play horribly, all things considered, but after a poor finish to spring ball, it's hard to project where Smith stands in the current pecking order. Until Towles is ready – and that may not be until 2013 – look for U.K. to continue alternating Newton and Smith. That won't be good for this offense.
Of course, it would help if Kentucky's receivers could hang onto the football. Perhaps no team in college football suffered a more widespread case of the drops in 2011: the receiver corps' lone saving grace is that Kentucky doesn't track drops as a statistic, saving the group from being defined by a rather embarrassing number. Kentucky will have a new receivers coach in Pat Washington, who replaces Tee Martin, and his first order of business will be amending issues like those drops and what seemed like a general lack of mental conditioning – and you can make the case that the two go hand in hand.
Matt Roark is gone, but Kentucky does bring back senior La'Rod King (team-leading 40 receptions for 568 yards and 7 scores), who stands as the team's lone proven threat in the passing game. King's going to need help from fellow seniors Gene McCaskill, Aaron Boyd and E.J. Fields while Kentucky waits on the development of a slew of true and redshirt freshmen. A few of the youngsters pushing for playing time: Demarco Robinson, Daryl Collins, Jared Leet, Derrick Quarles, Rashad Cunningham, DeMarcus Sweat and A.J. Legree. Washington has said nice things about the latter pair, both incoming freshmen, but everyone loves the new guys until they drop three straight passes against Vanderbilt.
Four factors stands in the way of Kentucky's running game: one, poor quarterback play, which allows SEC teams to put another man in the box; two, a lack of game-breaking ability in the backfield; three, a questionable offensive front, especially in terms of depth; and four, SEC defenses. It'll be tough sledding for U.K., though the Wildcats do return last season's top four running backs. This is a group led by senior CoShik Williams (team-leading 486 yards), with help from sophomore Josh Clemons (279 yards), junior Jonathan George (208 yards) and sophomore Raymond Sanders (155 yards). They won't strike fear into the SEC, but perhaps U.K. can team Williams with Clemons – who played fairly well as a sophomore – and run the ball well enough to take pressure off of the yet-to-be-named starting quarterback.
What got lost in the shuffle amid Kentucky's offensive despair was the improved play of the defense. The Wildcats allowed roughly four fewer points per game than in 2010, limiting seven opponents to 24 points or less, and did a pretty nice job limiting the opposition in the passing game. Not that there isn't work still to be done: U.K. still ranked 10th in the SEC in total defense and yards allowed per play while holding only two opponents to less than 134 yards on the ground. Obviously, the Wildcats need to stiffen on first and second down, particularly during SEC play. But U.K. is also among the worst in the SEC when it comes to getting to the quarterback, which is nothing new.
Kentucky hasn't mounted an adequate pass rush since 2008; over the last three years, U.K. has ranked 12th, 12th and 10th, respectively, in the SEC in sacks. Will this change in 2012? It's hard to find any reason why, seeing that the Wildcats are heading into this fall with nearly the same cast of characters along the defensive line. U.K. is in a position where it needs a breakthrough senior season from ends Collins Ukwu (28 tackles, 6.5 for loss) and Taylor Windham (14 tackles); if not that, U.K. needs younger ends like Farrington Huguenin, Mike Douglas and Langston Newton to step up and provide some speed off the edge.
Ukwu and Windham will start, as they did for most of last season. This pair will be joined inside by juniors Donte Rumph (31 tackles) and Mister Cobble (33 tackles), two big-bodied tackles who won't provide much of a push but must do a better job occupying blockers in the middle of the line. Overall, you're looking at a line largely devoid of SEC-like athleticism, even if help seems to be on the way among the untested underclassmen. Can a true freshman like Newton make an impact working solely as an edge rusher on passing downs?
At least the defensive line has some recognizable faces. Kentucky's back eight – the Wildcats play five defensive backs – will be almost completely rebuilt, with senior safeties Martavius Neloms (71 tackles, 2.5 for loss) and Mikie Benton (28 tackles) the lone returning starters. When it comes to secondary play, U.K. will have a hard time replacing all-conference pick Winston Guy, who was a great fit in the Wildcats' hybrid safety-linebacker role. His spot will now be filled by sophomore Miles Simpson, and let's wish him good luck; Simpson, who played sparingly last fall, is stepping into some big shoes.
The lack of experience at cornerback is distressing, to put it lightly. One thing we can lock in stone: Cartier Rice will start. He's a senior, meaning that Rice has been through the fire once or twice, which certainly helps; he's also one of only two cornerbacks who saw the field last fall, joining Eric Dixon, a sophomore. Dixon will play, perhaps opposite of Rice, though it looks like U.K. is leaning towards a staring duo of Rice and redshirt freshman Marcus Caffey. Kentucky signed eight defensive backs in February's class, and you have to think that at least half of these newcomers will start at cornerback. There's enough well-regarded youth for U.K. to get better as the year wears on, but as of today, Kentucky is not in good shape at the position.
The Wildcats knew they were going to lose weak side linebacker Danny Trevathan, the team's leading tackler, and middle linebacker Ronnie Sneed – they were seniors, after all. U.K. was not ready to lose would-be senior Ridge Wilson, who was dismissed from the program in February. Wilson was looked at as a potential leader on this defense; losing him hurts Kentucky's bottom line. But it's not all bad. Junior Avery Williamson (49 tackles) is ready to step into the starting lineup at middle linebacker. Likewise with sophomore Alvin Dupree (21 tackles) on the strong side. For now, sophomore Malcolm McDuffen will get the nod on the weak side. McDuffen could surprise, but he's no Trevathan. U.K. could have really used Wilson's experience.
Kentucky is also going to miss punter Ryan Tydlacka. The only thing – or things, or people – separating Tydlacka from all-SEC honors was the play of Steven Clark and Brad Wing. It's easy to make the case that Tydlacka was the team's offensive M.V.P., considering how many times the Wildcats needed his leg to bail out this putrid offense. Kentucky can turn to either junior Joe Mansour or redshirt freshman Jay Willmott to fill Tydlacka's spot. My money's on Mansour for two reasons: one, he handled kickoffs for U.K. last fall; and two, he's on scholarship.
Position battle(s) to watch
Offensive line Forget the staring unit, as Kentucky seems to have an idea of which way its leaning with the first five. U.K. should be very worried about the situation up front should one or two starters miss an extended amount of time. The Wildcats' depth woes during the spring has put Phillips in the unenviable position of potentially relying on five incoming freshmen to fill out the two-deep. The big-picture issue revolves around the line's overall youth and inexperience, as while U.K. has 14 linemen on the roster, 11 are either freshmen or sophomores. Yes, there will be a learning curve.
Three starters must be replaced off of last year's line, but the biggest piece returns: right guard Larry Warford, now a senior – amazing how time flies – is one of the best interior linemen in the SEC and a borderline all-American candidate in his final season. He and senior center Matt Smith, a two-year starter, will lend a steady hand to an otherwise untested offensive front. They'll be surrounded by new guys, though U.K. knows who they'll be: sophomore Darian Miller will get blind side tackle duties after starting two games at right tackle as a true freshman; redshirt freshman Zach West, an emergency backup to Warford last fall, will start at left guard; and junior Kevin Mitchell, who started last year's opener at left guard, will play right tackle.
Warford is a certain all-SEC pick – he earned second-team honors as a sophomore and junior – and Smith is experienced, which counts. But even if you ignore the issues along the second group, the lack of starting experience at left tackle, left guard and right tackle is cause for concern. Now, about the lack of depth: get to know true freshmen Zach Myers, Jordan Watson, Jordan Swindle, Jon Toth and T.J. Jones, because at least one will be needed in 2012. What will South Carolina's front seven do to this offensive line? What about Georgia's? Shield your eyes.
Game(s) to watch
May the SEC have mercy on Kentucky if this team doesn't start at least 2-1 – or 3-0, considering the overall nastiness of the Wildcats' conference schedule. It's easy to picture U.K. embarking on one long, disheartening losing streak beginning on Sept. 22 and continuing through Nov. 3. But if the Wildcats can start 3-0, notch one SEC upset and beat Samford, they'll enter the season finale needing only another win over Tennessee to return to bowl play. But where's that SEC upset coming from?
Season breakdown & prediction
In a nutshell I hate asking this question, but it needs to be raised: Where are the SEC wins coming from? Don't say Tennessee, because one win in nearly three decades doesn't prove anything; all that win does is force U.T. to pay attention, and I can't imagine a scenario where the Wildcats go into Knoxville – where they've won only once since 1977 – and notch a second straight win over the Volunteers. Kentucky isn't winning an SEC road game. Perhaps this team can sneak by Vanderbilt at home, but the Commodores, who should be better in 2012, beat U.K. like a drum last fall. Put simply, Kentucky does not look like a team that can compete in any way, shape or form against the rest of the SEC. A few conference rivals have one or two holes; I look at Kentucky's roster and see nothing but holes. Quarterback is a mess, though it's hard not to be excited about Towles' future with the program. Outside of King, there's nothing of consequence at receiver. The offensive line is one injury away from folding like a beach chair. The defensive line lacks athleticism. The back eight breaks in six new starters, with special emphasis on the new faces at cornerback. This team is going to push for a bowl berth in the SEC? I just don't see it. In fact, I can't even say with certainty that Kentucky will simply roll past Western Kentucky and Kent State during non-conference play. This does not look like a good team.
Dream season The Towles era begins early, and it's glorious. Behind the program's best quarterback since Tim Couch, Kentucky goes 4-0 in non-conference action and adds another four wins during SEC play to win eight games in the regular season for the first time since 1984.
Nightmare season Wisely, Phillips doesn't waste a season of Towles' eligibility on this: Kentucky is awful defensively, worse offensively, and beats only Kent State and Samford.
In case you were wondering
Where do Kentucky fans congregate? Kentucky has more fan sites than any other program in the F.B.S.; unfortunately, the majority are dedicated to U.K. basketball. So where do you turn? Start with the big boys, Cats Illustrated, Kentucky Sports Report and Cats Pause, but also check out Wildcat Nation and A Sea of Blue. You should also frequent the Web sites of The Lexington Herald-Leader and The Courier-Journal. Kentucky's bowl streak ended in the same year that Kyle Tucker picked up the U.K. beat at The Courier-Journal, which may or may not be a coincidence.

Pretty amazing that NMSU is ahead of an SEC team and two ACC teams.
[...] lede to Paul Myerberg's preseason analysis of Kentucky made me laugh: Congratulations are in order for Kentucky. For the whole basketball thing, of [...]
@Mark – also ahead of a big 12 and a big 10 team… Not surprising really. Most conferences have at least one really bad bottom feeder.
Warren Woodson is indeed a hall of fame coach and his place in the hall of hame is well deserved! … winning the Sun Bowl wice as head coach of New Mexico State.
I think Paul is drastically over-rating the Cats this year. It will be much worse than that.
