Below the 2012 Nissan GT-R's climate controls sit three important toggle switches that unleash the 530-horsepower coupe's full potential. From left to right, the second and third are easy enough to decipher: An image of a shock absorber sits above the suspension switch, and a spinning tire identifies the toggle for stability and traction systems, though that tire symbol isn't the standard ESC Off symbol, either.
The first switch is a little more cryptic. There's a differential housing with tires and what looks like an electrical schematic protruding from the rear end. What's more confusing is the toggle's lower "Save" mode opposite the fun-looking "R" mode that all the toggles have.
First impressions may lead you to believe the button controls the power split of the front and rear differentials — a common feature on all-wheel-drive performance cars — but that would be incorrect.

We investigate the response of soil microorganisms to atmospheric CO2 and temperature change within model terrestrial ecosystems in the Ecotron. The model communities consisted of four plant species (Cardamine hirsuta, Poa annua, Senecio vulgaris, Spergula arvensis), four herbivorous insect species (two aphids, a leaf-miner, and a whitefly) and their parasitoids, snails, earthworms, woodlice, soil-dwelling Collembola (springtails), nematodes and soil microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, mycorrhizae and Protista). In two successive experiments, the effects of elevated temperature (ambient plus 2 °C) at both ambient and elevated CO2 conditions (ambient plus 200 ppm) were investigated. A 40:60 sand:Surrey loam mixture with relatively low nutrient levels was used. Each experiment ran for 9 months and soil microbial biomass (Cmic and Nmic), soil microbial community (fungal and bacterial phospholipid fatty acids), basal respiration, and enzymes involved in the carbon cycling (xylanase, trehalase) were measured at depths of 0–2, 0–10 and 10–20 cm. In addition, root biomass and tissue C:N ratio were determined to provide information on the amount and quality of substrates for microbial growth.
Elevated temperature under both ambient and elevated CO2 did not show consistent treatment effects. Elevation of air temperature at ambient CO2 induced an increase in Cmic of the 0–10 cm layer, while at elevated CO2 total phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA) increased after the third generation. The metabolic quotient qCO2 decreased at elevated temperature in the ambient CO2 run. Xylanase and trehalase showed no changes in both runs. Root biomass and C:N ratio were not influenced by elevated temperature in ambient CO2. In elevated CO2, however, elevated temperature reduced root biomass in the 0–10 cm and 30–40 cm layers and increased N content of roots in the deeper layers. The different response of root biomass and C:N ratio to elevated temperature may be caused by differences in the dynamics of root decomposition and/or in allocation patterns to coarse or fine roots (i.e. storage vs. resource capture functions). Overall, our data suggests that in soils of low nutrient availability, the effects of climate change on the soil microbial community and processes are likely to be minimal and largely unpredicatable.

Telecom has pulled out of its "no sex over the rugby World
Cup" campaign, saying it had misjudged public reaction.
influential financial results are due out soon, with interest
in Telecom high as it is expected to be the last before the
company splits into two.
The All Blacks have found themselves at the centre of a new
public relations controversy - this time over a humorous and
edgy Telecom-led advertising campaign to have fans abstain
from sex for the Rugby World Cup.
Telecom and Slingshot have this week responded to the lower
mobile termination rates determination by lowering their
national mobile calling rates.
The two entities resulting from the proposed structural
separation of Telecom will use some of the same assets, but
no assets will be jointly owned.
Dunedin South MP Clare Curran has been accused of "vitriolic
scaremongering" in her continuing attacks on Telecom in
speeches in Parliament and in press releases.
Telecom's information technology arm Gen-i says it will make
strong gains in a fibre-optic future, despite the dark clouds
looming over the rest of the telco industry.
Telecom has admitted a software error has caused overcounting
of broadband usage since November, affecting 35,000 customers
who will now be provided with compensation.
Telecom has problems counting and could be overcharging
thousands of customers' broadband accounts, according to
detailed research by two customers.
Sky Television has signed a three-year deal with Telecom to
resell all of Sky's television services.

This week, we're going to liven the game up a bit by adding sound effects. While I am pretty amazing at drawing triangles and other figures that you can create without any artistic skills, I have even less skills making sounds. Luckily, there are some places we can get some free sounds to use in our game. We'll be using a collection of sounds from the AppHub's SoundLab project, so you can grab that, and pick up the source code from last week from the SkyDrive share.
This one is going to actually be pretty easy. To start with, we'll grab the sounds from the SoundLab project, and pick a couple that we think might work for the game. You could go with some gun sounds if you are feeling in a more aggressive mood, but I feel that some of the sounds in the UI folder actually work better for the feel of the game. I picked UI_Misc13.wav for the sound of a bullet hitting an enemy, and UI_Misc17.wav for the shooting sound. So the first thing we need to do is grab the files we picked, and drop them into the TriangleShooterContent project. Once they are added in, we can set up a variable for them, load them from the content project, and then play them.
The variables are of type SoundEffect, so we'll set one up for firing, and the other for when the enemy gets hit.
Loading the content is straightforward and similar to the previous loading of content we've done.
And playing them is a simple matter as well. The collision sound is good how it is, so we don't need to tweak it at all. We can just use the default method signature with no arguments.
The firing sound effect is a bit loud for how often it happens, so we use the overload that allows you to define the volume, pitch modification, and panning. about 50% volume seems good.
And really, that's it. Well that was easy. Next week, we'll refactor the code to make it easier to read and make some tweaks to the gameplay.

Gingrich Sheds Tears as Iowa Caucus Campaign Enters Final Days
Dec. 31 (Bloomberg) -- With emotions running high in the final days of the Republican presidential campaign in Iowa, Newt Gingrich wiped away tears yesterday while recalling his mother's struggles with illness as he and his rivals in the race worked to lock down support in the Jan. 3 caucuses.
"I do policy much easier than I do personal," Gingrich said, his voice breaking with emotion at an event in Des Moines aimed at mothers.
The moment, reminiscent of one then-Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton had four years ago, came as a NBC News-Marist survey released yesterday showed former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney leading the Republican field in Iowa with 23 percent, followed by Representative Ron Paul of Texas with 21 percent.
Former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania had 15 percent, followed by Texas Governor Rick Perry at 14 percent, Gingrich at 13 percent and Minnesota Representative Michele Bachmann at 6 percent.
In a NBC-Marist survey late last month, Gingrich led with 28 percent. The current telephone survey, conducted Dec. 27-28, has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.7 percentage points.
Gingrich's backing has dropped as attacks against him by other candidates and groups associated with them escalated.
$2.5 Million
About 10 times more anti-Gingrich ads have aired in Iowa than commercials that support him. More than $2.5 million has been spent attacking Gingrich, compared to just over $250,000 spent in his favor, according to data compiled by CMAG/Kantar Media, a New York-based company that tracks political spending.
"This is a wild and woolly campaign," Gingrich told supporters last night in Creston, Iowa.
He also shrugged off the latest poll, saying "no one knows who's going to decide to show up" to the caucuses.
At the earlier appearance in Des Moines, Gingrich was asked about his mother and how she shaped his life by moderator Frank Luntz, a Republican pollster.
The former U.S. House speaker from Georgia recalled his mother as happy and joyful, and discussed her living in a long-term care facility to help treat her bipolar disease and other physical ailments before her death in 2003.
"My whole emphasis on brain science comes in directly from dealing, um," he said, as his voice broke and tears welled in his eyes.
"See, I'm having emotion," he continued. "From dealing with the real problems of real people in my family."
Clinton Episode
Clinton, now serving as President Barack Obama's Secretary of State, briefly shed tears at a 2008 campaign event in New Hampshire as she sought the Democratic presidential nomination that year. Clinton, then a U.S. senator from New York, won the state's primary the next day after trailing in the polls to Obama, then a senator from Illinois.
Romney ended a three-day bus tour through Iowa yesterday with a morning rally where several hundred supporters gathered in a cold, drizzly rain to see him speak in a parking lot in West Des Moines.
He was joined by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, who playfully told voters to back Romney or else he "would be back, Jersey style."
After the event, Romney flew to New Hampshire for a 36-hour campaign swing. He'll return to Iowa today and stay until the morning after the caucuses, a sign of confidence about his prospects in the state. In past campaigns, candidates worried about their showing in the caucuses typically have left Iowa by then to try to limit the importance placed on the outcome.
As Romney's Iowa crowds have grown, his rivals have battled to emerge as his chief challenger.
'Chameleon' Ad
In New Hampshire, a group supporting former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman Jr. released new television ads blasting Romney as a political "chameleon."
The ad campaign sponsored by Our Destiny PAC is the most direct attack yet aimed at Romney.
"Two serious candidates remain," says a narrator in the spot, flashing photos of Huntsman and Romney. "One willing to say anything, be anything. One who can actually do the job."
Huntsman isn't competing in the Iowa race, focusing his efforts instead on New Hampshire, where the nation's first primary will be held Jan. 10.
Democratic Criticism
Democrats also are ratcheting up their fire at Romney. The Democratic National Committee yesterday released another in a series of web videos depicting him as out of touch with the economic anxieties of average Americans. The video criticized Romney, whose financial disclosure in August estimated his personal wealth at as much as $250 million, for saying he probably wouldn't release his tax returns if he wins the Republican nomination.
"What is Mitt Romney hiding?" the video asks.
Paul yesterday offered tepid praise for his major rival in the Iowa race.
"I think he probably understands how the market works as a businessman a little bit better than a guy like Gingrich," Paul said of Romney in an interview airing this weekend on Bloomberg Television's "Political Capital with Al Hunt."
Still, Paul said he doesn't think Romney has "convictions that come close to mine," and that he views all of his rivals as being political insiders.
'Status Quo'
"I put them all in the same category," he said. "They all are part of the status quo."
After campaigning yesterday in western Iowa, Paul took a break from the state to spend the New Year's weekend with his family. He'll return on Jan. 2 to conduct a daylong whistle-stop tour across five counties with his son, Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky.
Bachmann spent her day meeting voters at coffee shops in Sioux City. She plans to visit her state campaign headquarters in Urbandale today and join student volunteers making calls to voters on her behalf.
Santorum, who has seen his support rise in recent polls after campaigning almost solely in Iowa for months, spent part of his day in Ames, home of Iowa State University. He hosted a "watch party" at a sports bar where patrons watched Iowa State's football team play New Jersey's Rutgers University in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl.
Rutgers triumphed, 27-13, in the game played at New York's Yankee Stadium.

I am confused by
static root and want to clarify things.
To serve static files in Django, the following should be in
settings.py and
import os
1. Absolute path to the directory in which static files should be collected
STATIC_ROOT= os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR,'static_media/')
2. URL prefix for static files
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
3. Additional locations for static files
STATICFILES_DIRS = ( os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR,'static/'),)
...and in
urls.py the following lines:
from django.contrib.staticfiles.urls import staticfiles_urlpatterns
urlpatterns += patterns('', (
{'document_root': settings.STATIC_ROOT}
4. We also use
python manage.py collectstatic
Could anyone please explain the workflow to me: how should things ideally be done. As of now, I copy/paste the above code snippets into their designated locations and continue making new files in the static directory and it works. In my
settings.STATIC_ROOT, however, I have pointed to a different directory.
It would be great if someone could explain the workflow of each setting: how files are collected and managed, and what would be a good practice to follow.

Rex Cornell has lived in Canon City for ten years. It's been going around the city the Arkansas River is on the brink of flooding. His home is right across the street from the rising waters. Cornell says the water gets higher and higher each day and thanks to rising temperatures, the snow in the Rocky Mountains is starting to melt.
Cornell isn't concerned about water flowing over its' banks. He has his eyes on drainage ditches that flow along the street in front of his house. Excess water from the ditches flow into the Arkansas River. If the water keeps rising, it will clog the drains, causing water to flow in rather than out, flooding the street and possibly Cornell's home.
Cornell is one of many. According to a recent report, over 60,000 homes are within a flood zone in the state of Colorado.

Specter switched his vote on Medicare bill after last-minute deal with White House.
On Thursday, a bill "that would have blocked a 10.6 percent cut in Medicare payments to doctors fell just one vote short of the 60 it needed for passage." Politico reports that the White House pushed vulnerable senators to switch their votes in some "eleventh-hour" dealings. Officials promised Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA), who has been diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease and previously supported a similar Medicare bill, "an administrative fix to increase Medicare reimbursements for oncologists." Specter denied that there was a "quid pro quo."
The WSJ notes the failure to pass the bill "will create a backlog in Medicare's claims processing."

Heated dispensers are an essential extra for any self-serve concession station, dessert bar, convenience store food corner, or busy buffet line. While spooning out condiments, sauces, syrups, and the likes is all well and good, having heated dispensers at your disposal helps minimize the mess, while making it easy to get at the goodness inside. Often a quick pump or a simple squirt is all it takes to top off a plate of nachos with cheese, decorate a delicious dessert with flavored syrups, or overload a hot dog with chili and cheese, and a heated dispenser will help you get there.

Harlem basketball stars to perform Tuesday
Published: Monday, January 18, 2010 at 11:11 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 18, 2010 at 11:11 a.m.
HOUMA — The Harlem Ambassadors are set to entertain Houma crowds with their unique brand of basketball feats to help raise money for a local children's organization.
The internationally acclaimed basketball players are scheduled to perform their high-flying slam dunks, ball-handling tricks and comedy routines, all while carrying a positive message. The show is at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the Houma Junior High School gym, 315 St. Charles St.
Admission is $7 in advance and $9 at the door for students. Adults pay $2 more.
"At our shows, we want the kids to know that they're part of our team too," coach Ladè Majic said. "We invite as many kids as we can to come sit on the bench, have a front-row seat during the show and get involved in all of the fun stuff we do."
Freddia Ruffin Roberson, program director at the Children's Coalition, said the Harlem Ambassadors is a good fit for the local group's mission.
The group is also scheduled to speak to Houma Junior High students at a Tuesday morning assembly. The topic is substance-abuse prevention.
"We just thought that was a great fit," Roberson said.
The Ambassadors are partnering with the nonprofit Children's Coalition for the Bayou Region to help raise money for youth services. Roberson said a portion of the profits will go to the Houma Junior High girl's basketball team.
Roberson said she hopes to partner with Nicholls State University next year to bring the Harlem Ambassadors to Lafourche Parish.
The Houma-based coalition, established in 2000, serves families and children in Terrebonne, Lafourche and Assumption parishes.
For advance tickets, call the Children's Coalition at 872-1880, e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com or go to the Children's Coalition Office, 8024 Park Ave., Houma.

By Capt. Amanda L. Kehrrington, 18th Military Police Brigade Public AffairsFebruary 2, 2012
GRAFENWOEHR, Germany -- While chilling winds blew and the snow continued to fall as ice covered the streets and vehicles, Soldiers of the 230th Military Police Company, 95th MP Battalion, 18th MP Brigade, marched on and conducted their Mission Readiness Exercise here Jan. 24 - 27 in preparation of its imminent downrange mission.
The MRE served as a pre-combat check for the 230th MP Co. consisting of real world combat scenarios to prepare Soldiers for the impending mission.
"Being put into real world combat situations makes you think on your feet and helps you see what your instincts do and allows you to reassess what you do here and do it right downrange", said Pvt. Jenna Iannielli, a gunner assigned to the 230th M P Co. , 95th MP Bn., 18th MP Bde., and native of Rockaway, N.J.
Iannielli was one of numerous Soldiers who joined the 230th MP Co. just prior to drawing weapons and boarding a bus to conduct pre-deployment training.
To some Soldiers, deploying downrange or to an area to support overseas contingency operations is a coveted opportunity. Several of the Soldiers from the U.S. Army Europe Honor Guard jumped at the chance to help others and volunteered to join a unit scheduled to support OEF.
"I have an urge to help people and I feel like I would benefit a lot by deploying and getting real world experience," said Pfc. Joshua Wilson, a medic belonging to the 230th MP Co. , 95th MP Bn., 18th MP Bde., and native of Fontana, Calif.
This is the final exercise prior to deployment which gives Soldiers an opportunity to learn from their mistakes during training, while having Observer/Controllers show them the correct procedure. The MRE not only prepares Soldiers for deployment, but also gives unit members an opportunity to develop cohesion by living as a unit actually deployed. This is especially important while integrating new Soldiers who volunteered to deploy with the unit.
"Bringing brand new Soldiers into the unit along for the MRE presented a different set of challenges, but the most important thing was to ensure that they felt they were part of the team immediately," said Capt. Nicholas Ingrao, the 230th MP Co. commander, a native of Ypsilanti, Mich.
"I was really nervous because all these Soldiers have been working together forever and I was thrown into the mix", said Iannielli. "But these Soldiers really took me under their wing and they are teaching me things so that I execute procedures correctly downrange".
"It has been advantageous having the new Soldiers, myself included, because sometimes people get complacent expecting Soldiers to just know what to do, but with new Soldiers it exercises the ability of non-commissioned officers to lead Soldiers even more", said Sgt. 1st Class Allan Ring, 2nd platoon sergeant, 230th MP Co., 95th MP Bn., 18th MP Bde., and native of Hampton, N.H.
"I hope to bring a new perspective to the platoon and make them think differently and build on their ability to adapt and overcome to different situations," Ring added.
During deployment, the 230th MP Co. will conduct Host Nation Police building in support of Operation Enduring Freedom through Police Combined Action Team mentorship to improve the operational effectiveness and legitimacy of the Afghan Uniformed Police.
According to the United States Institute of Peace Special Report on Afghanistan's Police, the Obama administration has acknowledged the importance of the police and has intentions to expand and improve the Afghan National Police as a key part of its plan for stabilizing Afghanistan.

Reviews for Zesty Horseradish Meat Loaf
"Ran across this recipe, and it is a keeper. Hubby and I both loved the taste, and it was juicy."
"I did not care for this at all. It had the texture of wet baby food and strong taste of horseradish. Not for me."
"This was SO good! Excellent, flavorful meatloaf recipe. I used Nature's Own Double Fiber Wheat Bread and Silk Unsweetened Original Almond Milk in the recipe to cut the fat and calories, and it took the calories down to 179/slice. Yay! My whole family enjoyed this, from ages 4 to 41. Definitely a keeper! I prepared it the night before as I was going to bed, covered it with foil in the loaf pan, and simply took it out to add the ketchup and bake it for dinner the next night. Made for an easy meal!"
"I loved this meat loaf. The only thing I changed was to use a pounf of ground Turkey and for the other 1/2 pound I used Italian Turkey Sausage. I baked it at 375 for 45 minutes and it turned out great."
"this recipe is very good. my husband and i like things a little more spicy, so instead of using regular chili sauce i used sriracha."
"Juicy; however, way too much seasoning for amount of meat. Too spicy - not a good family recipe. Threw away!"
"This meatloaf had such an awful taste to me! Too strong of a horseradish flavor, and I like horseradish! My husband said it was alright, but when I asked if he wanted to take leftovers to work, he said "no". I won't be making this one again."
"My husband and I made this with ground turkey and LOVED IT! Our 5 year old did as well! We ommitted the chili sauce and added more horse radish because we love the taste! YUM!"
"I didn't care for this recipe. My husband, though, loved it."
"This was a really good meatloaf. Different from the usual. Instead of using horseradish, I used creamy horseradish sauce which sweetened things up a little. I would even try it with groung turkey next time."

Re: Pay For Delete (many questions)
Asking for GW deletion of any reported information must be directed to the party who reported the information, as others cannot agree to delete information they did not report.
Judgements, being public records, are often not reported by the judgment creditor or the judgment court.
If the judgement creditor was the reporting party, then yes, you can request them to delete that reporting, obviating any need to go through the process of first getting the court to vacate the judgment, and then requesting deletion based on that action.

Police: Poultney teens pepper spray sheriff's deputyBy Darren Marcy
Staff Writer | June 18,2014POULTNEY Two teenagers picked the wrong victim Monday afternoon in Poultney.
The boys, who were not identified by authorities, allegedly pepper-sprayed an off-duty sheriffs deputy, a retired member of the Vermont State Police, as he jogged along Main Street about 4:15 p.m.
Deputy Edward H. Hunter, 53, turned and gave chase despite the effects of the pepper spray, catching and holding at least one of the boys, both of whom were on bicycles.
Three state troopers and Fair Haven police responded and questioned the boys, holding them until parents arrived.
Trooper Walter Ribeiro cited the boys to appear in juvenile court at a later date to answer to the charge of simple assault.
Police were investigating whether the pepper spray that was used had been stolen from a local hardware store.
Vermont State Police Lt. Charles Cacciatore said the two boys were apparently riding their bikes on the sidewalk toward Hunter just before they sprayed him.
Cacciatore said there was no indication the boys knew Hunter was a deputy or targeted him for any reason except that he was the next person to come along.
It was just a haphazard deal, Cacciatore said.
Hunter was treated at the scene by the Poultney Rescue Squad.
Cacciatore said Hunters face was sore after the assault.
Sheriff Stephen Benard said Tuesday Hunter returned to duty and appeared to be well on his way to recovering from the incident, although, he said, the effects of pepper spray can linger for days.

There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love. Yes, I love the Church -- Martin Luther King Jr. in his Letter from a Birmingham Jail
Commenting Guidelines
Yes, disappointment. Tomorrow evening I'm leading a discussion on "the good news." When I do this sort of thing, I often think of those who know me best, many of whom do not belong to the Church or "believe" as I do. (In other words: my example has failed to convert them.) I can almost hear them ask, "What has his good news got him? Is he better than the rest? Is he happier? Is he more loving?" Sadly, I can't say I am, necessarily. I know my flaws all too well. But at the same time, I know I am a better me because of my faith (it could be worse, people!), and I couldn't do without it. That's something, a splendid something, and I don't hesitate to recommend it.

WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) - Only a fraction of wounded veterans who could get better benefits have applied for them in the two years since Congress ordered the Pentagon to review disputed disability claims.
Numbers provided to The Associated Press show that fewer than 1,000 vets have applied out of the 77,000 the Pentagon estimates are eligible to appeal. Advocates want the Physical Disability Board of Review to do a better job getting the word out.
Congress created the board after investigations found inconsistencies in how the military assigns disability ratings. That rating is critical because veterans rated below 30 percent receive a one-time severance payment and have to get health care from the VA system.
A rating over 30 percent means a monthly income and military health care.

New Zealand Economy to Get Lift From Rebuilding, Rugby in 2011
New Zealand's economy will likely rebound from the verge of a recession and expand next year, buoyed by earthquake reconstruction and a tourism boost from the Rugby World Cup.
Gross domestic product fell 0.2 percent in the third quarter, as the Sept. 4 temblor damaged houses, businesses and roads, Statistics New Zealand said in Wellington yesterday. Finance Minister Bill English said the recovery won't be derailed, citing falling unemployment and rising prices for commodity exports.
Rebuilding work after the magnitude 7 earthquake rocked Christchurch city is underpinning demand and helping prevent a recession, economists said. Another catalyst may be the rugby tournament's 85,000 visitors next year to the country of 4.4 million and an estimated NZ$500 million ($372 million) in tourism spending in the second half of 2011.
"The Rugby World Cup is going to have a significant positive impact on growth in the third quarter and thereafter," said Helen Kevans, economist at JPMorgan Chase & Co in Sydney. "Positives on the radar" include reconstruction, strong economic growth for New Zealand's trading partners and elevated commodity prices, she said.
After the GDP report, Kevans said she changed her outlook for the next interest-rate increase by Reserve Bank of New Zealand Governor Alan Bollard to June from March.
Bollard on Dec. 9 kept the official cash rate at 3 percent and said it was "prudent" to keep borrowing costs low until the recovery became more robust.
Currency's Effects
New Zealand's currency has fallen 1.6 percent against the U.S. dollar in the past month, which may support demand for exports, which make up 30 percent of the economy. The currency, up about 6 percent in the past year, bought 74.38 U.S. cents at 5:45 p.m. yesterday after falling as low as 73.86 cents immediately after the GDP report.
In the third quarter, the production-based measure of GDP was hurt by a contraction in manufacturing and homebuilding while farm and mining output also declined, yesterday's report showed. Growth was also led lower by a decline in exports, while consumer spending rose for a sixth quarter after a surge in demand for electrical goods and furniture immediately before the Oct. 1 increase in the sales tax.
Still, the cleanup work may accelerate, and the boost from the Rugby World Cup is starting before fans arrive.
Stadium Work
The city of Auckland, New Zealand's largest by population, has invested NZ$240 million to build new stands and transport facilities at Eden Park, which will seat 60,000 people at the World Cup final. The southern city of Dunedin has invested NZ$130 million in a new stadium, employing as many as 600 people.
Prices for commodity exports rose 4.5 percent to a record in November, according to an index calculated by ANZ National Bank Ltd. Fonterra Cooperative Group Ltd., the world's largest dairy exporter, this month raised its forecast payment to New Zealand farmers by 4.5 percent, citing rising international prices and improving global demand.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development on Dec. 13 said its leading indicator rose to the highest in four months in October as faster growth in China and the U.S. offset signs of slowdowns in Brazil and India.
In New Zealand, the economy has probably grown only modestly this quarter, said Craig Ebert, senior markets economist at Bank of New Zealand Ltd. in Wellington, who lowered his prediction to 0.3 percent from 0.5 percent.
'Pushed Forward'
"We see enough in the confidence-type and other indicators to think that the economy pushed forward," he said.
Business confidence was little changed near a five-month high this month as expectations for hiring and investment improved, according to an ANZ National Bank survey of 486 companies published Dec. 16.
The average annual growth rate is likely to accelerate to 3.4 percent in 2011, from a 1.7 percent pace this year, Ebert forecast before yesterday's third-quarter figures. Average growth was 1.4 percent in the year through September, yesterday's report showed.
""I am quite confident the economy will build momentum in 2011 and beyond," English said in an e-mailed statement.
Unemployment was 6.4 percent in the third quarter, down from 6.9 percent the previous three months and little changed from 6.5 percent in the same period a year earlier, the statistics agency said Nov. 4.
One potential drag on growth may be a drought in parts of the North Island, including Waikato, the largest dairy region. Milk output has fallen 4.7 percent on the North Island this month compared with December last year, Fonterra said on Dec. 16.
New Zealand's economy shrank last quarter for the first time since the first three months of 2009, which was the end of five straight quarterly contractions as the global credit crisis contributed to the nation's worst recession in three decades.
The RBNZ has estimated the cost of earthquake rebuilding will be at least NZ$5 billion ($3.7 billion) spread mainly over 2011 and 2012.

A Tick Gives You Lyme Disease
Before you kick back after a long, hard day of yard work, be sure to check yourself for ticks. Lyme disease is transmitted through infected blacklegged tick bites, and can lead to fever, headache and rash. Things can get worse if it's left untreated, since the infection can spread to your nervous system, joints—even your heart.

Aine over at "The Deepest Well" blog has inspired me once more by creating her own blog award to give to someone who "has amazed/informed/ entertained/intrigued me the most." I loved her idea of creating her own award and then picking a blog she liked. I asked her if could swipe the idea, to which she replied; "yes, steal away." So with her permission, I'm making my own blog award and giving it to blogs who I think

I love the whole blog awards, but some of these seem like a chain letter where you have to post
I've noticed a lot of people don't accept awards because they can become a hassle with all the acceptance rules. So, NO rules allowed when it comes to bestowing my award, other than I hope that the blog I pick accepts it.
So now I unveil my blog award:
One of my main heroine's is: Catwoman (a.k.a. Selina Kyle) some of you might know her from the comics (which yes, I admit I'm a comic book geek), have heard about her or have seen any of the movies (hated them all!) or met the character on the original Batman show and there's also the cartoons series she has prowled into. I love Catwoman for a lot of reasons, and I've blogged about her a few times and you can count on the fact, I'll keep blogging about her.
Catwoman represents to me, someone who is deadly beautiful, independent, strong and a bit mischievous. She's also Batman's equal and keeps him on his toes. A woman after my own heart and of course she's a
So, when I give my humble blog award that means, I love your blog and that you're a rocking "hero, heroine or villain!" that deserves to be recognized. And of course the girls give their full paw of approval!
My first blog to be awarded is:

Police and Sheriff's Report for Monday, July 18, 2016
Here is today's police report.
Here is today's police report.
One suspect is dead. Two remain at large.
Star Trek Beyond hasn't even hit theaters yet, but there's already talk of the next installment in the franchise — and if early reactions to Justin Lin's new Trek sequel are to be believed, then we have every reason to be optimistic about the future of the series. But just in case you needed one more, J.J. Abrams has revealed his "incredibly exciting" idea for Star Trek 4, which will reportedly bring Chris Hemsworth back to the franchise to team up with Chris Pine.
After a pretty disappointing summer, our hopes are high (but not, like, too high) for August to swoop in and deliver at least one or two entertaining blockbusters before the season ends. Fueling that optimism is the release of Suicide Squad, David Ayer's comic book villain team-up that promises to inject a little fun in the DC movie universe. Next month also brings a new stop-motion adventure from Laika, an R-rated animated movie about talking food (you know, for the grown-ups) and Meryl Streep's latest Oscars power play. Read on for our complete guide to next month's new movie releases.
After 16 years together as a band, Rascal Flatts celebrated their 16th career No. 1 single with "I Like the Sound of That" on Wednesday (July 13) at Sounds Stadium in Nashville, Tenn.
Did you know Texas Lottery players can now show their appreciation for Texas veterans by purchasing the new Money Bags scratch ticket.
Trace Adkins appeared to be intoxicated at a recent live performance for charity, according to multiple reports.
No parent should ever have to bury a son or daughter -- and yet, several country stars have had to endure such a grief-filled event.
This weekend marks one of the all time classic movie remakes "Ghostbusters" featuring an all female cast as the ghostbusters trying to prove there is a supernatural world. I was only in my early 20s when I saw the original movie and remember playing the Ray Parker Jr. theme song "Ghostbusters" that turned into a mega hit and spawned the words "Who Ya Gonna Call."

Skip to comments.Kill Saddam! U.S. journalists agree: If you can't beat him, assassinate him. (1997 of course)
Posted on 08/29/2005 6:21:35 AM PDT by Grampa Dave
Kill Saddam! U.S. journalists agree: If you can't beat him, assassinate him. Eric Umansky November 25 , 1997
The latest saber-rattling with Iraq has an odd twist: As the United States government shows restraint and revives the lost art of diplomacy, this time it's the U.S. press that's howling for blood -- the blood of Saddam Hussein personally. The press, of course, has the distinct advantage that nobody really follows their policy suggestions anyway, so their advice doesn't have to be diplomatic, or even legal:
The law:
Prohibition on Assassination. No person employed by or acting on behalf of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, assassination. -- Executive Order 12333, issued Dec. 4, 1981, by President Ronald Reagan, continuing the policy of his predecessors Ford and Carter. Neither Bush nor Clinton has rescinded it.
The handy (and illegal) tips from the press:
"Conventional Wisdom," Newsweek, Nov. 17: "Take him down." (next to a photo of Hussein and a downward-plunging arrow)
Thomas Friedman, foreign affairs columnist, New York Times, Nov. 6: "Saddam Hussein is the reason God created cruise missiles. ...So if and when Saddam pushes beyond the brink, and we get that one good shot, let's make sure it's a head shot."
George Stephanopolous, former Clintonite and current ABC News analyst, on ABC'S "This Week," Nov. 9: "This is probably one of those rare cases where assassination is the more moral course...we should kill him."
Sam Donaldson, co-host of "This Week," Nov. 9: We should kill Saddam "under cover of law.... We can do business with his successor."
Bill Kristol, ABC News analyst, "This Week," Nov. 9: "It sounds good to me."
Cokie Roberts, co-host of "This Week," Nov. 9: "Well, now that we've come out for murder on this broadcast, let us move on to fast-track..."
Jonathan Alter, Newsweek, Nov. 17: "It won't be easy to take him out. ...But we need to try, because the only language Saddam has ever understood is force."
Newsweek, Dec. 1: "Why We Should Kill Saddam."
FRIEDMAN: "I was taken out of context by the neo-cons...What I meant to say was that this is only valid when a Democrat is in the Oval Office."
Anything the Killer Klintoons did was wonderful in the eyes of the left wing lunatics who controlled the MSM.
Anything that GW wants to do to protect Americans in the WOT is terrible in the eyes of thee lunatic lefty mediots in control of the MSM today.
Because Klinton is GOD to the left and could never do any wrong.
"FRIEDMAN: "I was taken out of context by the neo-cons...What I meant to say was that this is only valid when a Democrat is in the Oval Office."
FYI and indexing.
"Because Klinton is GOD to the left and could never do any wrong."
Amazing isn't it?
Just like when Clinton ordered the execution of that retarded inmate when he ran for election and the media didn't say nothing but Bush caught hell over his executions (never mind that Ma Richards oversaw more executions than he did)
Fyi and ping lists.
Were there attempts from 1992-2000 to kill Saddam, and, if so , what evidence is there?
> Executive Order 12333 ...
> Neither Bush nor Clinton has rescinded it.
But the EO notwithstanding, the first bombs of Operation
Iraqi Freedom were aimed at Saddam personally (based on
faulty intel, as it turned out).
I wrote a letter to the editor the other day about this. And also JFK's administration trying to kill Castro.
MoonbatLand: Somehow, Karl Rove is behind this.... < /Leftist paranoia>
Excellent! Thanks for posting this.
Great find!
Excellent post! Bump for great justice! MSM, make your time!
I don't think that is true. Clinton got just as much, if not more flack from the press for all the stuff done in his presidency. It just seems like less, because it was from FR, instead of against FR.
Thank you Grandpa Dave.
So you are saying Clinton got more flack from the press than W does?
You're simply wrong. And any flack Clinton got, he more than deserved. Actually, he deserved MUCH more than he got and he still does.
9/11: The real Clinton legacy.
"I don't think that is true. Clinton got just as much, if not more flack from the press for all the stuff done in his presidency. It just seems like less, because it was from FR, instead of against FR."
Post the flack that Clintoon and these mediots got. Then we can compare them.
I don't know if there were any. If they failed, would we have been told.
Actually, threats like this by the Clintoons were probably extortion tools to get some of that "Oil for Food" money from Saddam.
I'd say it was about the same, but it's easy to forget stuff....when we want to.
This will be going out on my conservative email list and my list to drive lefties into a deeper insanity.
No, just go back and do your own research...there's simply too much to look up.
"I'd say it was about the same, but it's easy to forget stuff....when we want to."
Research the flak and post it.
I'm not the one who brought up this diversion attempt. You did. Now back it up with data.
News flash for stuart! FR is not "the press". And just in case you don't remember -- the press might have well been clinton's public relations firm the way it carried water for him during his presidency.
As I just said, no, I don't have enough time. Just go over to a liberal forum and ask the same question, I'm sure someone there will be more than happy to accomodate you.
And its easy to make contrary assertions without data to back up your claim when you want to.
Keep replying with your refusal to find data to back up your claim. You have time to reply but no time to back up your claim.
If you were to use the entire sentence when quoting, you would see what I was talking about....I did not say FR was the press.
This is quite amusing. I told a colleague of mine that this would be the response I would get, and that no one would remember, and everyone would demand back-up data. Thanks.
Because, um, er, just because.
Poolie18's Toons Today has a copy of an article by one of these liberals re killing Saddam.
John, good morning.
This might be worth 2 cents.
FYI and creative mind.
"Why was it OK to get rid of terrorists the easy way under Clintoon and forbidden under Bush?"
Because the MSM are DNC shills.
That inmate was not retarded because he had been so from birth, but because he had tried to commit suicide after the police had cornered him after he committed the murder that put him on death row. The bullet instead of killing him gave him a lobotomy.
Well that was different because Clinton was president, and we wanted to bash the first Bush. LOL! Well that is the way the MSM and the liberal press look at it. Republicans are damed if they do and damed if they do not.
"Republicans are damed if they do and damed if they do not."
The above is the standard operating order for the MSM.
the Clinton years made these guys forget they were raised on anti-war socialism
I believe that the internet saved us from the Gore 2000 post election coup, and we sank the SS CBS 2004 Coup with Blather and Mapes.
The ability to go back into time and find the remarks of the Clitoonistas and Deaniacs and post them in today's time is a powerful tool.
The internet and Freepers are helping to derail the Cindy Impeach GW train.
Yeah, the Clintooners became real hawks during their Desert Fox situation and the Bosnia fiasco.
Klintoon took some mild falck on some of his more egregious personal behavior, but it was in the tut-tut school of criticism. And it was more like friendly criticism rather than attack. ("You know, Bill, you really shouldn't have done that. Even we have a hard time defending it, though we try, and it makes you look bad. Sloppy, sloppy.")
You are simply and completely wrong.
Being forced to report stories is not giving one flack.
The media liked Clinton and even when they reported on his actions that usually did not reflect well on him, they would then proceed to mitigate and dismiss, informing their readers or viewers that the American people did not care according to the latest poll, and then they would come up with some lamebrained "everybody does it" equivalency story.
And that's the way it was and continues to be.
When Clinton said Saddam posed a threat to us, the media believed him. When Bush said it, they didn't. Period.
Thanks for posting this.
Is Robertson more influential than all of these "top shelf" journalists and therefore the target of so much more ire? These duplicitous bastards out to be "taken out" and horsewhipped.

60. Picture of Tongue
The tongue is a muscular organ in the mouth. The tongue is covered with moist, pink tissue called mucosa. Tiny bumps called papillae give the tongue its rough texture. Thousands of taste buds cover the surfaces of the papillae. Taste buds are collections of nerve-like cells that connect to nerves running into the brain.
The tongue is anchored to the mouth by webs of tough tissue and mucosa. The tether holding down the front of the tongue is called the frenum. In the back of the mouth, the tongue is anchored into the hyoid bone. The tongue is vital for chewing and swallowing food, as well as for speech.
The four common tastes are sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. A fifth taste, called umami, results from tasting glutamate (present in MSG). The tongue has many nerves that help detect and transmit taste signals to the brain. Because of this, all parts of the tongue can detect these four common tastes; the commonly described "taste map" of the tongue doesn't really exist.

Orange Park, FL
I am an adult male human who makes a living by writing things down in such a way that they appear to be worth paying for. I used to work as a software developer for Yahoo!, but a man can only take so much computer programming before he goes mad, and that's pretty much what happened. When I woke up, I had somehow become a freelance writer, so I decided to stick with it and see where I ended up. And where I ended up is here.
As well being a reviewer for CBR, I've written for such media outlets as Film4, Wired UK and Comic Heroes Magazine - sometimes about comics, sometimes about other things, but always with the knowledge that even writing about the most boring subject is considerably more fun than actually working for a living. Just to prove I'm a well-rounded individual, my interests outside of comics include stand-up comedy, F1 racing and cosmology, and my favourite novelists are Douglas Coupland, Will Self and Chuck Palahniuk.
FIRST COMIC: Probably some random issue of "The Beano," but the first US comic I ever bought was "Weapon X" #3 (the 1995 "Age of Apocalypse" series).
FAVORITE CHARACTER: The X-Men (specifically Rogue, Gambit, Psylocke and Wolverine)
Showing results 41-60 of 629
"Age of Ultron" by Brian Bendis and Brandon Peterson plunges Wolverine and Sue Richards into a world they never made with uninspiring results.
"X-Factor" #256 by Peter David and Leonard Kirk brings to a close the "Hell on Earth" war storyline as the book takes one more step towards its now-announced conclusion.
"Wolverine #3" by Paul Cornell and Alan Davis pits Wolverine against an unfamiliar extraterrestrial influence.
"Avengers Arena" #9 by Dennis Hopeless and Kev Walker introduces a new character and dispatches an old one.
"Uncanny X-Men" #5 by Brian Bendis and Frazer Irving finally reveals the truth about Magik's changing powers.
Brian Bendis and Steve McNiven pile on the action in "Guardians of the Galaxy" #2 as Earth's fate hangs in the balance.
"Wolverine and the X-Men" #27AU finds Wolverine and the Invisible Woman stuck in the past, accidentally stepping on butterflies.
Not content with having one of the best ongoings on the stands, "Daredevil: End of Days #7" by Bendis, Mack, Janson and Sienkiewicz shows why Daredevil might just have the best miniseries, too.
"Secret Avengers" #3 by Nick Spencer and Luke Ross continues the espionage-filled adventures of S.H.I.E.L.D. and company as the Iron Patriot armor goes on the market.
"Uncanny Avengers" #6 heads back in time for Rick Remender and Daniel Acuna to present an early meeting between Apocalypse and Thor.
"Thanos Rising" #1 by Jason Aaron and Simone Bianchi unveils the early years of Marvel's cosmic warlord.
Christos Gage and Dexter Soy throw Spidey into the world of "Age of Ultron" in "Superior Spider-Man" #6AU
"Wolverine and the X-Men" #27 by Jason Aaron and Ramon Perez sees Wolverine's students fight in the Savage Land against the book's craziest villain yet: Wolverine's Brother, Dog.
Dennis Hopeless and Salvador Larroca send Colossus to jail in "Cable & X-Force" #6.
Kelly Sue DeConnick, Christopher Sebela and Filipe Andrade turn in some fantastically-executed superheroics in "Captain Marvel" #11.
"Age of Ultron" #2 by Brian Bendis and Bryan Hitch takes readers further into the post-disaster world as Black Widow and Moon Knight take center stage.
"Uncanny X-Men" #3 by Brian Bendis and Chris Bachalo continues the upward trend in quality for the series as the Avengers come a-knocking.
"Powers Bureau" #2 by Brian Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming sees Deena and Walker investigating powers-related pregnancies.
"Dial H" #10 sees Roxie and Nelson finally get their hands on a new dial -- but are they prepared for what it does to their minds?
"Star Trek The Next Generation: Hive" #4 brings to a close the miniseries from the mind of Trek mainstay Brannon Braga as the Enterprise crew face the Borg -- maybe for the final time.

Imagine being in a big airport concourse, hundreds of people sitting around waiting to be herded onto their planes ... and this group goes walking past: 6-foot-8 Katie Feenstra (Liberty), 6-7 Alison Bales (Duke), 6-5 Chante Black (Duke), 6-5 Sylvia Fowles (LSU), 6-5 Shawtinice Polk (Arizona), 6-4 Sancho Lyttle (Houston), 6-4 Kathrin Ress (Boston College) and 6-4 Amanda Brown (Penn State).
Oh, and add in "littler" people such as Tiffany Jackson (Texas), Tasha Humphrey (Georgia) and Mistie Williams (Duke), who are 6-3.
All of them are playing for teams in the NCAA Tournament's Chattanooga Regional, which you might think of as the "big-girl" quarter of the draw. Sure, there are plenty of "bigs" spread throughout the tournament, but this is quite a group. Some are labeled centers, some forwards, but all are big.
And while there's no scenario in which they all actually would be in the same concourse at the same airport at the same time ... the point is, just think of what people's reaction would be if they were. Tall women get used to it. Everybody stares no, gawks at them. They're a focus of attention.
However, it's kind of funny how the bigs haven't been much of a focal point of awards and NCAA Tournament attention in recent years. Going back to 1990, the only centers who've been Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four are UConn's 6-4 Rebecca Lobo in 1995 and Notre Dame's 6-5 Ruth Riley in 2001.
The others getting the award over that time have been gritty guards (Jennifer Azzi, Dawn Staley, Michelle Marciniak, Ukari Figgs and Shea Ralph), athletic marvels/slashers (Charlotte Smith, Chamique Holdsclaw, Swin Cash) and, of course, in a do-it-all category of her own, 6-foot guard Diana Taurasi of UConn.
This is not to say the bigs haven't been very big in Final Fours or the NCAA Tournament in general. Just that they've been, ultimately, kind of overshadowed.
And going into this tournament, the projected player of the year who is also in the Chattanooga Regional is the slashing, jump-shooting 6-1 guard Seimone Augustus. But as great a player as she is, how much has it helped LSU to have a rebounding presence and inside anchor such as the already-powerful freshman Fowles?
The above-mentioned bigs are not all similar in body-type or playing style. Same for some of the other outstanding bigs in other regions, such as Ohio State's 6-5 Jessica Davenport (Philadelphia), Michigan State's 6-4 Kelli Roehrig (Kansas City) or TCU's 6-3 Sandora Irvin (Tempe). (At this point, I'll note that I'm not mentioning every good big woman in the country, because there are more out there.)
There are still some who are less mobile, more typical back-to-the basket players. And there's nothing wrong with that; the best of those players maximize their strengths, of which there are many.
But more and more, Texas coach Jody Conradt said, you see big players with diverse skills. Such as her sophomore Jackson, who can do the dirty work inside but also make all kinds of other plays.
"There are some good, young talented players who are just basketball players, not limited by size and mobility, and who can basically take over the game," Conradt said. "That's something that is emerging in our sport. We haven't seen many Tiffany Jacksons in our game, but we're seeing it more and more. In our part of the bracket, especially, they are young and are players that are going to continue to get better."
Some are young chronologically, but don't look like it. Can it be that Fowles and Jackson, in particular, are still actually teenagers? Already, they have the bodies for the WNBA.
Sure, their games are developing, but there's already so much they do right. Fowles is averaging 12.0 points, 9.0 rebounds and has 88 blocks. She'll become very confident soon in her offense. Her footwork and post passing skills will improve, and she'll be even more of a threat than she is now. Which should make the rest of the SEC (and the country) quake.
Jackson is averaging 18.1 points and 8.7 rebounds, plus she's had 94 steals and 57 blocks this season. No, really, that's NINETY-FOUR steals! That's the best in the Big 12 by 29 thefts. Her 3.2 average is 15th in the nation and all ahead of her are guards. Jackson is the best-stealing big in the country.
Her lone negative stat is turnovers, of which she has 111. With all that Jackson tries to do on the court, though, it's difficult to criticize that. But it's still a number she'd like to reduce, as it's the only inadvertent mercy she shows opponents.
Fowles started basketball in eighth grade, after having a growth spurt the summer before that shot her up to 6-1. She had run track to that point and wasn't interested in hoops despite the pleas of her school's basketball coach. But she finally agreed to the give it a try. Good choice.
What Fowles really likes to do away from sports, though, is charmingly old-fashioned in today's computers/video games/TV-dominated world of leisure activities.
"I've been sewing since I was 6 with my grandma," she said. "In my spare time, I like to sew and draw. I'm going to school to study fashion and design. I want to design clothes for tall women.
"I haven't come up with any designs for myself yet, because I'm very picky. I make stuff for my sisters, though, because they tell me what to do. And they're little."
Yes, the tall women always face the clothes issue, although today less than even a decade ago. And they have their other challenges as well. Opposing fans tend to pick on them throughout middle school, high school and college. They also deal with so much physical play, especially at the Division I level. In some ways, just by virtue of being big they are thought to have it easy, which is certainly not the case.
And, to go back to my original point, the bigs have been more in supportive roles recently, as far as the national spotlight. Perhaps that will change this tournament; we'll watch and see.
But the bigs are always going to command attention, of course. That's basketball. A few week ago, I was watching one of my nephews on a playground swing set, but off to the side I became absorbed in a recess basketball game. It was boys vs. girls, fourth- or fifth-graders, and everyone was pretty much the same size.
Except ... a thin girl wearing a purple jacket. She was at least four inches taller than anybody else, maybe more, and I found myself muttering from a distance, "Come on, get the ball to the big girl!"
It was elementary-school hoops, though, from both genders. A lot of running around without dribbling, plenty of hot-potato, what-do-I-do-now passing, and shots that didn't come two feet from threatening the rim.
But then, something wonderful happened, as a moment of spontaneous teamwork broke out among the girls. One somehow bounce passed out of a quadruple team to a girl who was cutting to the basket, although I doubt she knew that's what she was doing. The concept of a layup didn't appear to enter her head, so she flung the ball back to an open girl on the free-throw line, who passed to a girl on the left side.
"GET THE BALL TO THE BIG GIRL!" I shouted inside my head.
And then the big girl got close to the basket. The girl on the left lobbed the ball to her. They did it! The big girl jumped, caught, turned, shot it off the backboard and scored. Then she took off her jacket and tossed it away, as if to say, "OK, now I'm warmed up. Let's go!"
It was a beautiful thing.
