The domestic hypercarnivores cat and mink have a higher protein requirement than other domestic mammals. This has been attributed to adaptation to a hypercarnivorous diet and subsequent loss of the ability to downregulate amino acid catabolism. A quantitative analysis of brain glucose requirements reveals that in cats on their natural diet, a significant proportion of protein must be diverted into gluconeogenesis to supply the brain. According to the model presented here, the high protein requirement of the domestic cat is the result of routing of amino acids into gluconeogenesis to supply the needs of the brain and other glucose-requiring tissues, resulting in oxidation of amino acid in excess of the rate predicted for a non-hypercarnivorous mammal of the same size. Thus, cats and other small hypercarnivores do not have a high protein requirement per se, but a high endogenous glucose demand that is met by obligatory amino acid-based gluconeogenesis. It is predicted that for hypercarnivorous mammals with the same degree of encephalisation, endogenous nitrogen losses increase with decreasing metabolic mass as a result of the allometric relationships of brain mass and brain metabolic rate with body mass, possibly imposing a lower limit for body mass in hypercarnivorous mammals.

Kitty Foxx, Jennie Joyce, and the other oldsters have escaped the garden club in favor of starting up a call-girl ring catering to those who remember their first piece of ass being much older and more experienced. Nothing spectacular here, other than the ladies' ability to do what they do without the aid of oxygen or a walker.
Fine for those who feel that the prime of life begins, at the very least, well over 40.

About Us
According to Boise Basques by Gloria Pilar Totoricaguena, the building at at 202 South Capitol Boulevard had been used as a Chinese laundry and then was Chin Joe Restaurant. The uses before it became a tavern were due to its proximity to the old Boise Chinatown, which has long disapperared with few remnants remaining. The building then became the Trade Dollar Bar, and in 1948, it became the Cub Tavern. The Cub was a landmark in downtown Boise through the 50's and was able to survive the redevelopment frenzy of the 1970's. In the late 80's, through the foresight of Adelia Garro Simplot and Romaine Gailey Hon , the Cub building was saved by the Basque Cultural Center of Idaho, Inc., better know as the Basque Museum and Cultural Center and the Oppenheimer Development Corporation. They agreed to lease the building to Dan Ansotegui for a restaurant that was originally to be named the Shepard's Son. Shortly afterward it became the Gernika Basque Pub and Eatery.

The Durham seamer, last year's leading wicket-taker in LV= County Championship Division One, toured India and New Zealand with England over the winter but missed out on Test action.
Onions said: "For me personally, the first month (of the county season) is going to be a big one. I've played one Test here against West Indies, my second Test match, and that was fantastic. To put an England shirt on anywhere in the world is great, but to potentially have a chance - it's kind of in my hands - to play an Ashes Test on your home ground (would be even better)."
With home and away meetings with Australia looming large on the horizon, including a maiden Ashes Test at Chester-le-Street in August, Onions is understandably eager to force his way into Andy Flower's side.
A repeat of the form he showed at domestic level throughout 2012 would therefore represent a significant boost.
He added: "It would be great to walk down the steps and take some wickets and beat the Aussies. That's the goal, but if you look too far ahead that can be quite dangerous. It's a little bit of a dream in the future."
Durham play a three-day match against Durham MCCU from Friday before kicking off their championship campaign next week with a home game against Somerset. Onions insists he is ready to spring out of the traps, despite his relative lack of action since last September.
"I've carried a lot of drinks over the last few months, so it's slightly different from my point of view to the (other Durham) lads," he acknowledged. "They haven't netted outside and of course I've been frustrated because I've been doing a lot of netting and haven't played a lot of cricket.
"You just have to try and prepare as well as you can and do everything that you can to perform to the best of your ability.
"I look towards Durham's games coming up as important ones for myself. I feel pretty confident; I'm raring to go; I feel fit and strong, and it's just a case of getting that ball in your hand in English conditions - we know it's going to be cold - and dealing with that."

The referee blows his whistle for the last time and this one has ended level. A massive point for a Wolves side who have been dismal on the road this season, but a set back to Arsenal's top-four ambitions as they remain in fifth place. I hope you've enjoyed yourself, I'm Ryan Gordon wishing you a splendid evening. Cheers all.
We're heading into the final minute of added time here and Wolves look set to leave with a hard earned point. They'll have their keeper to thank if that is the case here this afternoon.
Gervinho is still giving everything out there and wins a free-kick near the corner flag. Mikel Arteta whips it in, but no Arsenal player can get their head to the ball and the defence clears.
Michael Gomes says: Hi Ryan, I am desperate for RVP to the do the business here, IT'S A 10-MAN WOLVES SIDE! Who ever said fantasy football ruined their enjoyment of football?
There will be SIX added minutes here at the end. The Gunners are throwing everything forward now, but can they find a way through?
Wayne Hennessey, take a bow. The goalkeeper refuses to be beaten today and pulls off a quite brilliant point blank save to thwart Thomas Vermaelen.
Chamakh is straight into the wars and is required to leave the field of play due to blood on the back of his head. Robin van Persie is also looking a bit groggy after also taking a knock to his head. Both will be okay to continue though.
Koscielny looks to make things happen for Arsenal and bursts foward into the box before crossing in, but the ball flies straight at the goalkeeper who deflects the ball out for a corner.
Nicholas Shulman says: Have a feeling that if that bad tackle had been from a red shirt it would still be on the pitch. 10 men may however work against Arsenal as it guarantees the parking of the bus!
Johan Djourou makes way for Marouane Chamakh as Arsene Wenger signals his intent for the remaineder of the match by swapping a defender for a striker.
The Wolves goalkeeper really is proving the difference between the sides today, and he somehow stops Robin van Persie's low drive with his feet. I don't think he knew much about it, the keeper, but it's all about position, and he had that spot on.
Another free-kick for Arsenal in a very good position as Johan Djourou is brought down by Stephen Hunt. Robin van Persie takes a huge run up before drawing a fine save from Hennessey.
Gervinho continues to haunt the Wolves defenders and breaks down the wing before crossing in from the by-line, but he can't pick out a red shirt and the danger is cleared.
You'd put your mortgage on Robin van Persie scoring there as the Dutchman finds himself clean through thanks to a delightful bring-down inside the area, but with his back to goal he can't quite get the necessary accuracy and blazes his shot wide.
The Spaniard dusts himself off and looks to curl the resulting free-kick home, but his shot is deflected up and out for a corner.
Tempers are boiling over at the Emirates and Wolves are down to 10 men as Milijas sees red for a poor challenge on Mikel Arteta. We've had some good football here this afternoon, so let's hope this one doesn't turn ugly.
Tony Panayiotou says: Hi Ryan. A hard fought 3-2 win by Arsenal with 'One Man Van' to save Arsenals blushes as usual this season. Where would they be without him I wonder.
It's all getting quite fiery out there and the referee looks to have his work cut out for him for the remainder of the match. Roger Johnson and Thomas Vermaelen getting into a bit of shoving after colliding into the advertising boards, but the man with the whistle quickly cuts out the nonsense and play can resume.
The handbags are threatening to come out here as Song and Fletcher clash in the middle of the park. The Wolves players aren't happy about it and almost seem to coax the referee into showing a card. Song the man going into the book.
Wave after wave of Arsenal attack now, and I'm not sure how they're still level. Wolves are defending for their lives at the moment, but Hennessey is putting on an inspired performance between the sticks.
Arsenal win a free-kick in a dangerous position as Gervinho is up-ended just outside the area. Robin van Persie, whose run up is initially blocked by the referee, curls a sumptuous ball towards the top corner, but Hennessey pulls off a sublime save to just tip the ball over the bar.
Yossi Benayoun, who has put in a determined display here today, is brought off for Russian playmaker Andre Arshavin as Arsene Wenger makes his first change of the afternoon.
Gervinho picks up the ball in his own half before breaking down the wing and cutting into the box, but instead of capping off a fine individual run with a shot he opts to pass to Song, but the defenders are in first and the chance goes first.
Vermaelen is robbed of the ball by Jarvis who tees up Milijas, but he can't keep his shot down and the ball fizzes over the post.
Hey my name is Darren Spurgeon, I am a Wolves fan. Wolves I think have been playing strong so far against a confident arsenal side. Fletcher to grab a brace for the win. Come on Wolves!!!
More enterprising play from Rosicky here who shows good strength in the middle of the park, but after playing Gervinho down the wing the Ivory Coast international surrenders possession and Wolves are able to clear.
Calls for handball from the Arsenal players as Koscielny's cross appears to strike the arm of Ward. The referee only points for a corner, infuriating the Belgium, who picks up a yellow card.
Thomas Rosicky breaks forward with real pace and purpose before spreading the ball out wide to Yossi Benayoun, but his cross can't find Robin van Persie and the visiting defence clears.
Looks to be more of the same this half in terms of the possession stats, and Arsenal are being pretty selfish with the ball as they continued to probe away at the Wolves defence.
Gervinho has been really lively for the Gunners today and he wins a corner for his side. Mikel Arteta swings it in at the near-post, but Berra heads the ball away to safety.
Zubar is back on the field, but after 30 seconds of running he's back down on the turf and won't be able to continue. He's clutching his knee and a picture of concern is painted across Mick McCarthy's face. The midfielder makes way for Richard Stearman.
Arsenal look to make the most of their numerical advantage, and Gervinho looks to be played through on goal, but the striker had strays into an off-side position and the move comes to nothing.
Zubar is down after tangling with Gervinho, and he looks in a bad way. Wolves are playing with 10-men just at the moment.
Adam Gore says: I think Arsenal need to win to capitalise on dropped points by Chelsea and Liverpool. I think they will be too strong for wolves and will eventually take the game 3-1. Van Persie and Yossi with the goals!
Arsenal end the half with an attack of their own as Van Persie twists and turns his way into the area, but his attempted ball to the far-post has too much on it and goes out of play. Join me after the break for the second 45 minutes.
Wolves are on the attack here and Matt Jarvis is again pulling the strings. He feeds Karl Henry in down the channel, but his cross is woeful and goes out for a goal-kick.
The fourth official raises his board and shows there will be two minutes of added time here in the first-half.
Jarvis has looked lively for Wolves today and has gotten the better of Djourou on more than one occasion. This time the Wolves man's delivery is very poor though and the ball floats out for a goal-kick.
Johan Djourou hasn't looked too comfortable in defence this afternoon to be honest, and he again plays Yossi Benayoun into trouble, and again the Israel international is brought down.
The Gunners look for an instant response, and Thomas Rosicky looks to test Hennessey, but the midfielder's shot is too close to the goalkeeper who plucks the ball out of the air.
GOAL! The ball ricochets around in the Arsenal area before going out for a corner off Mertesacker. The delivery is flicked on to Hunt on the edge of the area, and his shot is eventually redirected home by Steven Fletcher who was played on-side by some sloppy Arsenal defending.
Wolves are looking to catch Arsenal out with some route-one football, but it just isn't coming off for the visitors once more possession is softly conceded in the final third.
Wolves make a rare foray into the Arsenal half, but the move is cut short as Stephen Hunt is adjudged to have clipped the heels of Per Mertesacker.
First booking of the afternoon for Roger Johnson after the Wolves man brought down Van Persie from behind. Mikel Arteta lines up the resulting free-kick, but his effort is tame to say the least and the goalkeeper makes an easy save.
Just a few seconds later and the home side are again on the attack as Van Persie muscles his way past a defender to create himself a shooting chance, but Wayne Hennessey does well to get down low and smother the effort.
Wolves are slowly getting themselves more into this game as the half goes on, although as I write that Karl Hendry almost plays his side into a world of trouble as he dawdles in defence, allowing Van Persie to nip the ball off his toes before playing in Thomas Rosicky. The midfielder should shoot but he opts instead to tee up Vermaelen, whose shot is blocked on the edge of the area.
We'll have a small break in play now as Zubar needs to receive some treatment. Looks like he got the wind knocked out of him, but he's back on his feet now and will be ok to carry on.
Wolves have a rare shot at target here, although that calling that one a shot is a bit flattering as Stephen Hunt slams the ball way over the bar after it had set up quite nicely on the edge of the area.
The Arsenal back four are seeing a lot of the ball as they invite Wolves to spread themselves thin. Gervinho looks to break through once more, but his touch is too heavy and he concedes possession.
They don't have possession for long though and Arsenal again break with pace. Van Persie gets the better of his marker inside the area, but his attempted clip to the far-post is just deflected out for a corner. The Dutchman takes that one too, but the visiting defence look comfortable in the air.
Arsene Wenger's men come forward again, this time through Song, but his attempted back-heel pass doesn't quite come off and Wolves get a rare touch of the ball.
More possession for Arsenal, and more frustration for Wolves. It could be a long afternoon for Mick McCarthy's men.
Wolves are looking very vulnerable on the counter-attack, and Robin van Persie's distribution has been exemplary this afternoon. Worrying signs for the visitors.
Here come the Arsenal again, although this time Yossi Benayoun seems to run out of ideas and eventually tumbles over under his own feet. The traveling fans jeer the Israeli's fumble, but the home support quickly drown those out with applause for the midfielder's effort.
Almost 2-0 now as Gervinho again breaks through on goal before picking out Robin van Persie with a clever reverse pass, but the Dutchman rolls his shot just wide of the post. He gives a rye smile, acknowledging he really should have done better there.
Another calculated move from Arsenal ends with Thomas Vermaelen having a dig from just inside the area, but the defender's shot is well blocked and the danger is cleared.
A rare spell of possession for Wolves at the moment, but they're being forced to play back more often than they would like due to a congested midfield.
Malcolm Atkins writes in: I think MM should have got coach of the year for keeping wolves up for as long as he has. As for todays game Arsenal by 3 goals
That early goal could prove a bit of an omen for Wolves today. The home side are stroking the ball around very comfortably now, and Mick McCarthy's men are chasing shadows at the moment.
GOAL! It's taken just eight minutes and the Arsenal are in front. Yossi Benayoun splits the Wolves defence with a perfectly weighted ball for Gervinho, and the striker first sells the goalkeeper before rolling his shot home between two defenders.
Andy Bell says: I reckon that after the disappointment of the midweek draw against Norwich at home, Wolves will be up for it today. I think Arsenal may be a little cagey at home. I'm going for a sneaky 1-2 Wolves win.
The lanky German international is again called into action, and he duly completes his duties, putting his body on the line to block Matt Jarvis' effort from inside the area.
Wolves try to break on the counter through Berra, but his long-range pass has too much on it and Per Mertesacker comfortably sweeps up the danger.
Gervinho tries to produce some African flair down the wing, but his feet are almost too quick for his own good and he runs the ball out for a goal-kick.
Arsenal are happy to play keep ball at the moment, but Johan Djourou almost runs himself into trouble, but eventually gets the ball to Yossi Benayoun who is then fouled.
Arsenal have started this the brighter of the sides, and the pace of Gervinho earns the home side an early corner. Mikel Arteta whips it in from the left, but it's easily dealt with by the defence.
Numan Sohail says: most memorable goal of rvp so far?! got to be arsenal vs barcelona, how the atmosphere that night changed! arsenal 4 wolves 0 rvp to get a brace, benayoun on the scoresheet as well as an arteta freekkcik!
Our first Arsenal supporter of the day, Josh Daly, says: Not sure about Dave's comment... Wolves always have something up their sleeve? What exactly have they had up their sleeve in the 14 games they've lost this season?? Arsenal 3-0.
A slight correction from my earlier statement; Eighteen-year-old Anthony Forde has already played Premier League football for Wolves after coming on as a substitute away to Chelsea. It is his first Premier League start though.
Paddy Hartnett writes: So proud of young Anthony Forde, proud to be from Limerick & Ballingarry. Well Done
We're just a little under 10 minutes away from kick off here, and the home fans are being treated to a Robin van Persie goal scoring highlights reel on the big screen. There have been some pretty memorable ones, and even Thierry Henry, sitting amongst the Emirates Stadium crowd, would be proud of some of those. Most memorable RvP goal so far? You let me know.
It seems you lot are quietly confident of Wolves maybe sneaking something here today. Andrew Price says: Hiya there! This may be the only prediction that says arsenal won't thump wolves today but I'm feeling a 1-1 draw! Fletcher to score a penalty with the equaliser obviously to be from the inform RVP!
Dave is the first to make his voice heard this afternoon. He writes in: I can see wolves winning today, not because I'm a liverpool fan and want to see arsenal lose etc, but wolves always have something up their sleeve!!
Arsenal: Szczesny, Djourou, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Song, Arteta, Rosicky, Benayoun, Gervinho, van Persie Subs: Almunia, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ramsey, Arshavin, Chamakh, Coquelin, Miquel
Wolverhampton: Hennessey, Zubar, Johnson, Berra, Ward, Jarvis, Henry, Forde, Hunt, Milijas, Fletcher Subs: De Vries, Elokobi, Stearman, Ebanks-Blake, Hammill, Doyle, Guedioura
I'm here all day good people, so why not get involved by mailing your thoughts, predictions or anything football-related to email@example.com and I'll share your winged words with the whole world.
Wolves really do have it all to do today, and our friends at Sky Bet have put Arsenal as 2/9 favourites to collect the points today, while Robin van Persie is 5/2 to equal Shearer's long-standing record.
Meanwhile, Anthony Forde is set for a baptism of fire as Wolves prepare to hand the 18-year-old winger his Premier League debut. The teenager should be joined in the midfield by Karl Henry, Matt Jarvis and Nenad Milijas, while Steven Fletcher will play the lone striker's role.
So, Arsenal are set to hand Yossi Benayoun a starting role following the midfielder's winner against Aston Villa last time out, but there is no place for Theo Walcott as Gervinho will partner Robin van Persie. The Dutchman is currently just two goals shy of equaling Alan Shearer's record for most goals scored in a calendar year when he slammed home 36 in 1995.
More bad news for the traveling contingent is the fact Wolves last beat Arsenal in a top-flight match back in 1979, with their most recent run having seen McCarthy's men slump to six successive Premier League defeats to the Gunners.
Results have been going very much the way of the Gunners of late, and a win today would see them leap-frog London rivals Chelsea, who currently occupy fourth. Wolves on the other hand find themselves just above the relegation zone, with just one point separating themselves and a bottom-three spot.

This was good and interesting with the grated parsnip. It did give texture along with the water chestnuts. I served with whole grain chips and enjoyed. Good luck in the contest. :)

We've only been nominated thrice in around six decades, never won, and yet, it makes filmmakers care so much they hurl the juiciest insults at each other once every year. The Best Foreign Film category at the Academy Awards looks to be a perpetual thorn in the backside of the desi film industry. However, we'd like to clarify - we're not taking up the case for the aggrieved parties who're upset each year because their film was 'better' just because they think so, or made more money, as if that's what the Oscars were after.
But take a close look, and the pattern's not hard to see. Over the years, voices have become louder about only a certain genre of films making the cut. They are either National Geographic-type culture tours for the goras (the Paheli, Eklavya, Devdas or Peepli Live variety), or have to show India in a positive light (because we are not like the bad gangs in Gangs Of Wasseypur ), or have to leave you feeling warm and all-izz-well-with-the-world, such as Barfi! 's Barfi and Jhilmil do as they trip across life, overcoming disability with nothing but love. That explains why some complain that Satyajit Ray's films only figured thrice in the official entries because so many of his works were about India's poverty. Oh, and also, if you're a big ticket production, your chances are better. In recent years, many small budget sparklers that could have equalled the best in world cinema have lost out because they don't have the influence of an A-list venture.
Maybe because the only three nominees ever - Mother India (1957), Salaam Bombay (1988) and Lagaan (2001) - were irresistible exotic fare for Westerners with their Indian history and setting, the Film Federation of India (FFI) seems to believe that 'India' sells at the Oscars, perhaps forgetting that the nominees also happened to be great cinematically. The point is, picking only a certain kind of film would be OK too, as long as it won us something. If it's just about sticking to a formula, you'd think the FFI would have got that right by now.

Woman pleads in Wii theft caseJune 28,2013
BARRE A Granite City woman has pleaded not guilty to breaking into a Cabot residence and stealing a Nintendo Wii in May.
Kara M. Arnaiz, 25, pleaded not guilty to felony burglary in Washington County criminal court Thursday. If convicted, she faces a maximum of 15 years in prison and a $1,000 fine.
According to the Vermont State Police affidavit, a woman called state police saying someone had broken into a Ducharme Road residence and taken the video game system. She told state police someone had smashed a glass pane on the front door to gain entrance to the home.
When questioned by state police, Arnaiz admitted to using a rock to smash out the glass and entered the residence. Arnaiz admitted to taking the Wii, as well as other items including a guitar, and sold the other items for $100.MORE IN This Just InPHILADELPHIA First lady Michelle Obama stepped into the presidential election Monday with a...

Tomorrow morning at 8am Pacific / 11am Eastern / 4pm London Jason Hall and myself will be talking about how to find out how healthy your SQL Server Enterprise is using both the native tools as well as Quest Software's Spotlight On SQL Server Enterprise.
New SQL Server Wiki Launching Today
Today is the unofficial launch of the new SQLServerPedia.com Wiki. The official launch for the wiki is during PASS, so you have to go to the /wiki folder manually. The SQLServerPedia.com site is run by Quest Software, and the Wiki contains all the information which used to be contained in the KnowledgeXpert product which they used to sell. They are know giving it away for free to the entire SQL Server community.
I could go on all day about it, but forunitely I don't have to because Brent Ozar already has in his post "The answer to SQL Server training problems". I highly recommend reading Brent's post about the site. It gives some great background and tells all about the site. Continued »

I would say that yes you should. The PASS summit is an excellent learning opportunity that simply shouldn't be missed if you can't avoid it.
No matter how much you think you know about SQL Server, there is always more to learn.
I tend to think I know quite a bit about SQL Server and I enjoy going to PASS, because there is so much that I don't know about SQL Server, this is a great opportunity to learn from some of the best minds in the SQL Server community and Microsoft.
You can still register for the summit on the PASS Community Summit 2008 web page.
I hope to see you there.

Handy Query to look at amount of data in Buffer CacheSQL
Here's a handy query which I've written which I've used to see how much of each table is loaded into the SQL Server Buffer Cache. It shows you how much data is in memory, how much space is used on disk, and the percentage of data in memory compared to the amount of data on disk.
SELECT sys.tables.name TableName,
sum(a.page_id)*8 AS MemorySpaceKB,
SUM(sys.allocation_units.data_pages)*8 AS StorageSpaceKB,
CASE WHEN SUM(sys.allocation_units.data_pages) <> 0 THEN SUM(a.page_id)/CAST(SUM(sys.allocation_units.data_pages) AS NUMERIC(18,2)) END AS 'Percentage Of Object In Memory'
FROM (SELECT database_id, allocation_unit_id, COUNT(page_id) page_id FROM sys.dm_os_buffer_descriptors GROUP BY database_id, allocation_unit_id) a
JOIN sys.allocation_units ON a.allocation_unit_id = sys.allocation_units.allocation_unit_id
JOIN sys.partitions ON (sys.allocation_units.type IN (1,3)
AND sys.allocation_units.container_id = sys.partitions.hobt_id)
OR (sys.allocation_units.type = 2 AND sys.allocation_units.container_id = sys.partitions.partition_id)
JOIN sys.tables ON sys.partitions.object_id = sys.tables.object_id
AND sys.tables.is_ms_shipped = 0
WHERE a.database_id = DB_ID()
GROUP BY sys.tables.name
When you run this code, some of the smaller objects will show more pages in memory than on disk. It appears that this is normal. My guess is that SQL Server is preallocating data pages so that if data is added to these pages there is space allocated to them already in order to save time when adding data to the table.
I've removed the system objects from this query, as you can't do anything to optimize them.
Attending PASS 2008? Want a free MCP exam?SQL
Microsoft and PASS have announced that you can take a free Microsoft Certification exam. Visit the PASS Community Summit 2008 Microsoft Learning Certification Center Registration Site for more information.

This program is only available for people who are going to PASS, and you have to take the exam at the PASS summit (which requires attentance to the summit).
See you at PASS.
Why is my SELECT COUNT(*) running so slow?SQL
Take a look at the execution plan for your query. You'll notice that the query is doing an Index Scan (or a table scan), not an Index Seek which is why the SELECT COUNT(*) takes so long. The reason for this is that the COUNT(*) function needs to look at every record in the table.
As a workaround you can use the technique that Microsoft uses to quickly display the number of rights when you right click on the table and select properties.
select sum (spart.rows)
from sys.partitions spart
where spart.object_id = object_id('YourTable')
and spart.index_id < 2
You should find that this returns very quickly no matter how many tables you have.
If you are using SQL 2000 still you can use the sysindexes table to get the number.
select max(ROWS)
from sysindexes
where id = object_id('YourTable')
This number may be slightly off depending on how often SQL updates the sysindexes table, but it's usually corrent (or at least close enough).
(I was informed that my prior information on this post was not quite accurate, so I have revised the post accordingly. In a nutshell when doing a SELECT count(*) FROM Table even if the row contains all NULLs the record is still counted.)

"Sex should be an adventure." — Alexx Andria
Alexx Andria writes erotic stories from the mild to the wild and everything in between.
Review by:
Desere Steenberg
on May 24, 2012 :
This was a really hot book, I liked the story of two soulmates coming together however I was expecting a very different ending. But yes good book lots of passion and lust and also a valuable lesson and a surprise. Alexx Andria is a new author to me but I was surprised that the story was so compelling which in most erotica books does not really happen as the sex always seems to be overdone and not enough focus is given to the characters,but the author focused on the troubles and lives of the characters and inter-weaved them into the plot really well.

Published: June 7, 2001
(Page 2 of 2)
Today's report reflects the increasing certainty of the scientific community here and abroad that the warming of the last 50 years is probably because of the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations. The panel said the degree of confidence in this conclusion was ''higher today than it was 10 or even 5 years ago.''
Still, it said, large uncertainties limit predictions of the extent and consequences -- good and bad -- of future warming. But it affirmed the scientific consensus that human-caused climate warming could well be a dominant environmental problem throughout the new century, depending on how fast the gases accumulate in coming decades.
''Human-induced warming and associated sea level rises are expected to continue through the 21st century,'' it said.
And it said that ''national policy decisions made now and in the longer-term future will influence the extent of any damage suffered by vulnerable human populations and ecosystems later in this century.''
The report thus all but eliminates one reason the administration has been using to forestall any action on global warming.
And it deals a strong card to Democrats on Capitol Hill who have long sought more aggressive action on global warming. Senator John Kerry, Democrat of Massachusetts and a leading advocate of action said of the report, ''It confirms in stark terms the reality that many of us had accepted a considerable amount of time ago and refutes an effort by the White House to seek some sort of escape hatch from that reality.''
Senator Chuck Hagel, Republican of Nebraska and a longtime critic of the Kyoto Protocol, instead highlighted the uncertainty mentioned in the report and drew the opposite conclusion of Mr. Kerry.
''This report is certainly not a prescription for the drastic measures required under the Kyoto Protocol,'' Mr. Hagel said in a statement.
Nonetheless, in a nod toward the unanimity of the scientific community, he added: ''This report does provide us with enough evidence to move forward in a responsible, reasonable and achievable way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It provides us with a basis to move forward with an alternative to the Kyoto Protocol.''
Environmentalists hailed the report as a significant step in the long effort to force the United States to curtail greenhouse gases. Phil Clapp, president of the National Environmental Trust, said, ''The president can no longer wiggle out of aggressive action by arguing that the science is inconclusive.''
Mr. Clapp also suggested that the report called into question Mr. Bush's proposed energy plan, which seeks to step up production of coal, oil and gas-fired power plants.
''This makes the president's energy plan look completely irresponsible,'' he said.
Mr. Clapp said environmental groups had estimated that if the energy plan was fully put into effect, it would increase the pollution that causes global warming by 35 percent over the next decade.
The report was written by 11 atmospheric scientists who are members of the National Academy of Sciences. The authors included Dr. Richard S. Lindzen, a meteorologist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who for years has expressed skepticism about some of the more dire predictions of other climate scientists about the significance of human-caused warming.
The report was requested on May 11 in a letter to Dr. Bruce Alberts, the president of the National Academy of Sciences, from John M. Bridgeland, deputy assistant to the president for domestic policy, and Gary Edson, deputy assistant to the president for international economic affairs.
A statement from the academy today said, ''The White House requested this fast-track review of the state of climate science in preparation for international discussions on global warming scheduled to take place in the coming weeks.''
Initially, the White House asked two questions of the academy: What are the greatest strengths and weaknesses in the science pointing to human-caused warming? And, are there significant differences between the full scientific analysis completed recently by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, sponsored by the United Nations, and the final executive summary?
There have been three assessments of global warming by the international panel since 1990, and each has drawn a more conclusive picture than the last of the link between human activities and the prospects for significant harm to agriculture, ecosystems and coastlines.
But conservatives in Congress -- notably Senators Hagel and Larry E. Craig, Republican of Idaho -- and groups representing industries whose business depends on fossil fuels have long criticized the findings of the international panel as biased, pointing particularly to differences between the voluminous chapters on complicated scientific points and briskly worded summaries that tend to influence policy.
The panel, led by Dr. Ralph J. Cicerone, the chancellor of the University of California at Irvine, met initially in California and spent the next weeks intensively sifting the existing science.
The report does provide some ammunition for critics in its description of the conclusion of the international climate group. It concluded, for example, that the international panel had a tendency in its executive summary to understate caveats and focus on the harsher possible consequences of climate warming. But over all, the panel described the international work as ''admirable'' and robustly supported its conclusions.
In a telephone interview today, Dr. Cicerone said he hoped the report, by spelling out the scientific basis for various predictions, would dispel some unwarranted skepticism about aspects of the warming problem.
One climate scientist who critiqued a draft of the new report for the academy said no one in the administration should be surprised at the firm nature of the result.
''They asked a string of questions that might have been appropriate in 1990,'' the scientist said.
''Hello?'' he said. ''Where've you been the last decade?''

Where can I download a version, compatible with WordPress 3.7?
Why are you using an old copy of WordPress? Were you aware that your site is currently running a very real risk of being hacked? You need to upgrade WordPress asap.
I can't do that at the moment (theme incompatibility)
You can find all existing WP-Piwik versions here:
As mentioned by esmi: You should update WordPress as soon as possible. Ask your theme developer to update it or try to do the necessary changes on yourself. It is not a good idea to keep using an old version.

I have a doubt on the java synchronization mechanism. Let us take the following piece of code--
class A {
int instance=0;
synchronized void met1() {
instance=instance +1;
instance = instance+2*3;
In the above method met1, we need to make it synchronized in a multi threaded enviroment because it is modifying an instance variable of an object. However in this piece of code --
class A {
synchronized void met1() {
local=local +1;
local = local+2*3;
The method met1 is modifying a local variable, which I think will be unique for each thread that executes that method. So in this case, when a thread is modifying only a local variable, is it necessary to make the method synchronized ?

Chicken Marbella
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 1 hr
The famous Chicken Marbella from the Silver Palate Cookbook. This recipe has been bringing down the house for years and I have made serious adaptations to it, fine-tuning it to suit our taste and make it a little more practical. I like to serve this with cous-cous and a big green salad.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 lbs chicken thigh pieces, skinless and boneless, cut each piece into 4
- 1⁄2 head garlic, peeled and finely pureed (this works out to about 6-8 cloves)
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons dried oregano, crumbled
- coarse salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 1⁄3 cup red wine vinegar
- 1⁄3 cup olive oil
- 12 pitted prunes (I cut them in half)
- 6 dried apricots, cut in half (optional)
- 1⁄2 cup pitted spanish green olives
- 1⁄3 cup capers, with a bit of juice
- 3 bay leaves
- 1⁄2 cup brown sugar (I prefer to use less - 1/4 cup is fine)
- 3⁄4 cup white wine
- 1⁄2 teaspoon chili powder (not in original recipe) (optional)
- 1⁄3 cup Italian parsley (cilantro) or 1⁄3 cup fresh coriander, finely chopped (cilantro)
- In a large bowl combine chicken quarters, garlic, oregano, pepper and coarse salt to taste, vinegar, olive oil, prunes, apricots (if using), olives, capers and juice, bay leaves, brown sugar and white wine.
- Cover and let marinate, refrigerated, overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Arrange chicken in a single layer in a large, shallow baking pan and spoon marinade over it evenly.
- Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour, basting frequently with pan juices. Chicken is done when thigh pieces, pricked with a fork at their thickest, yield clear yellow (rather than pink) juice.
- With a slotted spoon transfer chicken, prunes, olives and capers to a serving platter. Moisten with a few spoonfuls of pan juices and sprinkle generously with parsley or cilantro. Pass remaining pan juices in a sauceboat.
- Note: To serve Chicken Marbella cold, cool to room temperature in cooking juices before transferring to a serving platter. If chicken has been covered and refrigerated, allow it to return to room temperature before serving. Spoon some of the reserved juices over chicken.

I came looking for this recipe after being served an amazing "maybe spanish chicken/prune/olive/wine casserole" at a catered work function and was unable to track down the caterer to get the recipe directly. Turns out it was Chicken Marbella (Thank you recipezaar for your search by ingrediant function) I am very judicious in giving out a perfect 5 stars but there is nothing to fault in this recipe - it is a classic for a good reason. Its super easy to make (just put it all in the dish you're going to bake it in the night before then add the wine and sugar put it in the oven the next night) and tastes divine. I am not generally a fan of fruit in meat dishes and had I simply read the recipe when I was browsing for something to make I probably would have dismissed it, I would have been SORELY mistaken. This is a fantastic, delicious, simple to prepare recipe I would encourage you to try it. I made mine with skinless chicken thigh peices. I used 4 large cloves of garlic which was perfect for my tastes but if you're not a big garlic fan 2 or 3 would probably be enough. I added 1/2 cup of dried apricots as the original dish I ate which sent me in search of this recipe included apricots and a google search showed they are considered an optional extra. About 20 mins into the cooking time I covered the dish with tin foil as even with basting the top of the chicken peices were drying out a little. Outstanding recipe evelyn/athens! Thank you.
Fabulous. What more can I say? The absolute perfect dish for entertaining.
Great recipe. I actually used breasts instead of thighs and I used 2 tablespoons of oil instead of 1/4 cup. We really enjoyed it.

Breaking: LEAKED final draft of Copenhagen treaty declaration
Brendan DeMelle | December 18, 2009
By Brendan DeMelle • Friday, December 18, 2009 - 03:51
[Update: I've added in analysis of the key text]
With only hours left in the Copenhagen climate treaty talks we have obtained an early version of the final agreement' draft text.
President Obama's speech wrapped up a few minutes ago with nothing new announced. But as long as this session continues there remains hope that world leaders can deliver a fair, ambitious and legally binding deal.
Things continue to evolve and according to the draft version of the agreement, the major issue of the amount of greenhouse gas emissions cuts by what year, remains unanswered.
As it stands, the text states:
Annex I Parties to the Convention commit to implement, individually or jointly, the quantified economy-wide emission targets for 2020 as listed yielding in aggregate reductions of greenhouse gas emissions of X per cent in 2020 compared to 1990 and Y per cent in 2020 compared to 2005…
Based on the best scientific research these numbers should be 25-40 percent below 1990 levels by 2020 and by 80-95 percent below 1990 levels by 2050.

James Hayter converted from 12 yards after Marvin Morgan was ajudged to have handled and, although Stephen McGinn levelled matters midway through the opening period, Paddy Madden's excellent individual strike handed three points to the Glovers.
"It's a huge disappointment," said Turner. "We started the game well and the referee gave a penalty which surprised everyone. I don't even think any of their players appealed.
"We were shocked that the decision went against us but we've got previous with the referee as he erroneously sent Dave McAllister off last time we had him. I don't think anybody could believe the decision he made.
"If a ball is fired or headed against someone who is only a foot away there's no chance to get your hands out of the way. There's no deliberate handball there.
"In the second half we had a real good go, played well and moved the ball around. I think we've got to take some positives from the level of our second half performance.
"We pushed them onto the back foot, caused them some anxious moments and silenced the crowd. We worked the ball into some great positions on a number of occasions.
"We're bitterly disappointed not to come away with something, but the referee has had an influence on the game.
"We won't be happy until we're over the 50 point mark, and then we'll breathe a bit easier."
