De Jong dreaming of Bayern move
Twente striker Luuk de Jong has admitted joining German Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich would be a dream move for him.
By ESPNSTAR.com staff
The 21-year-old was on fire in the Eredivisie this past season, scoring 25 goals to help his side finish 6th in the league and also earned a place in Holland's 23-man squad for Euro 2012 in the process.
His performances for his club have seen him linked with a move to the Barclays Premier League recently, with Newcastle and Tottenham reportedly interested in his services, although he now has revealed he is hoping to play at the Allianz Arena in the future.
"Bayern Munich are a fantastic club," De Jong told Bild.
"It is my dream to one day play for them."
Bayern are rumoured to be in the market for a new striker to lessen the burden on spearhead Mario Gomez, with Ivica Olic on his way out of the exit door while Nils Petersen has struggled to impress since joining from Energie Cottbus last summer.
The Bundesliga giants had a miserable end to the season as they finished without silverware after losing out to Borussia Dortmund in both the league and the DFB-Pokal, as well as being defeated in the final of the UEFA Champions League by Chelsea on penalties.

Hey, I blew away about $300+ to learn that lesson.
IMO and experience, XLR/balanced cables have zero to offer in one's home system.
Congrats on your decision to buy OPPO BDP-95 blu-ray player.
I'm more reserved and am looking for a blu-ray player that will exceed the OPPO BDP-93 at a somewhat lower cost.
Maybe the soon to be released Panasonic blu-ray 500 player?
Anyway I just got a Benchmark DAC-1 HDR unit, and it mildly exceeds my Nuforce Icon HDP unit in SQ. The Nuforce unit is slightly more sharp/brittle with it's sound.
Both units are rather versatile as small desktop preamp headphone amp units.
Perhaps that's a good overall assessment about the diminishing SQ returns with higher money spent.

A wave of riots and looting engulfed many British cities in recent days, leaving at least five people dead. Basij Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naghdi said, "We are ready to send Basij detachments as a peacekeeping force to London, Liverpool, Birmingham and other cities to help restore order and stability in Britain."

Wow, just decided after reading all the Vinland Saga chapters, to take a look at a rather amusing Manga called One Punch Man, a story of a superhero that does exactly this thanks to Charles Atlas Super Power and realizes that this leaves him with little to no challenge against villains...At all.
Despite the rather simple premise, it's a pretty neat one since the protagonist is already the strongest person in the series that he finds it rather uninteresting at all. Thankfully, it does add other heroic characters that are not as absurdly strong as he is that their fights are rather serious and action packed while the protagonist's battles are merely amusing as Hell. (The only time he used more than one punch literally turned his opponent's upper half into goo).

TRUST Award
From MeritBadgeDotOrg
Ranger, Quest, and TRUST Awards with cross-references for related Venturing Awards.
|TRUST Award
Venturing TRUST Award medal.
The Venturing TRUST Award is the religious expert-level award in Venturing. It builds directly on the Religious and Community Life Bronze Award. Venturers earning the TRUST Award will learn more about themselves, their communities, their religion and culture, as well as those of others.
This award focuses chiefly on the principles of religion, community, and tolerance. Its purpose is to provide a pathway for personal development in the forms of service and devotion to God. Once earned, the Venturer will be recognized as not only one who understands others, but who also looks out for them and their needs.
After completion of the TRUST Award, the medal may be awarded at a crew recognition ceremony (similar to a Boy Scout Court of Honor), organized by the youth Vice President - Administration. This award may be presented more than once; it may be awarded again at a school or other venues to promote awareness within the community.
TRUST is an acronym that stands for Tending your beliefs/faith, Respecting the beliefs of others, Understanding other cultures, Serving your community, and Transforming our society; one of each corresponds to the five sections of requirements.
Venturers may also earn:
- Sports Bronze Award
- Religious and Community Life Bronze Award
- Arts and Hobbies Bronze Award
- Outdoor Bronze Award
- Sea Scout Bronze Award
- Expert-level awards
In addition, four of the five bronze awards fulfill partial requirements for Venturers continuing on and earning expert-level awards:
- The Sports Bronze Award requirements are part of the Quest Award.
- The Religious and Community Life Bronze Award part of the TRUST Award.
- The Outdoor Bronze Award part of the Ranger Award.
- The Sea Scout Bronze Award is a duplicate of the Sea Scout Ordinary rank requirements, and is necessary on the trail to earning the Quartermaster Award.

You do realize he wasn't pretending to eat food, he was pretending to be an old school camera.. aka a highlight reel.
McGee celebrates wacky dunk by shoveling invisible food into mouth
By Ben Golliver
There's so much going on in this poster dunk. Nuggets center JaVale McGee, no stranger to high-flying plays of wonder, flings the ball down into the hoop over Pacers center Ian Mahinmi, then celebrates by pretending to shoveling invisible food in his mouth while running back down the court.
The play unfolded early in the second quarter, as Nuggets forward Andre Iguodala pushed the ball upcourt, stopping in the paint to drop off the ball to McGee, who was trailing the play. The Pacers, caught out of position while getting back, allowed McGee a clear path to the hoop, but he veered off a bit to the right, leaping to attempt a dunk over a late-arriving Mahinmi. The ball left McGee's hand before he could really follow through but it wound up landing perfectly through the net as he crashed to the floor.
McGee, a 24-year-old seven-footer, competed in the 2011 Slam Dunk Contest but lost to eventual champion Blake Griffin.
Check out an animated .GIF of this fling dunk below.
@TerryBlosser Good catch, i was thinking why would somebody shovel food in their mouth after a dunk? Makes no sense. But then again its McGee so i believed it haha.

Austin Bay and Jim Dunnigan on the war, Roger Stern and Lynne Kiesling on oil supplies and energy policy, and warblogger Michael Yon on his experiences in Iraq, and his difficulties with the U.S. Army -- all in the latest podcast.
Once again, we got syndicated columnist, author, and blogger Austin Bay together with author and StrategyPage.com publisher Jim Dunnigan and let them talk (with just a few questions from us) about what's going on in the world. The discussion covers Iran, the Cartoon War in Europe, the difficulties in intervening in Darfur, and more.
Also, Roger Stern, from the Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering at Johns Hopkins (and author of this paper on geopolitics and oil pricing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences) talks with Lynn Kiesling, Director of the Center for Applied Energy Research, and blogger, about oil pricing and U.S. policy -- will there be pressure for higher petroleum taxes, and is that better than pushing particular technologies like hybrids or ethanol?
Finally, warblogger Michael Yon talks about his experiences in Iraq, a famous photo, and his difficulties with the U.S. Army's legal team -- difficulties that were resolved once the blogosphere got involved. Apparently, a lot of people in the Pentagon read blogs.

Our take: The WellFire M16 RIS TacSpec AEG comes loaded with accessories such as a flashlight and a tactical foregrip. It is a unique Airsoft starter AEG that is gravity-fed, so BBs are loaded through the top of the mock scope that sits on top of the receiver. A retractable rear stock has been installed on this rifle, so you can adjust the stock to best suit your shooting position.It has enough power for a starter electric, and for its price, you are purchasing an automatic for what other airsoft retailers would sell a spring pistol. This is an AWESOME deal!Specifications:Operation: Electric AutomaticFiring Modes: Full-automaticMuzzle Velocity: 200-240 FPSMagazine: Gravity-feed holds 150rdsGearbox: ABS PlasticHop-up: FixedWeight: 3.5 poundsAmmo type: 0.12 gram seamless BBsPackage includes: Rifle, rechargeable battery, wall charger, flashlight, foregrip
"magazine in scope which i dont like. but it is very good."
found this review helpful.
"Hopes are up my first AEG sucked so ya looks great"
"I am going to get this gun, and from the other reviews, it sounds pretty good. Does anyone else have this gun?"
"I m 11 and am looking at this gun...does anyone know anything more about this gun? Thank u."
"get the non scilenced m4 or p90 i have both and recomend"
"This is my first airsoft rifle and I think it's great.
Things I liked:
-Feels great
-easy setup
-batteries seem to last a long time
Little dislikes:
-scope in the magazine
It's a little odd that the magazine is the scope but that is the only downer for me. Heck, it may have said that in the description but I missed it. Will definitely be buying more from this site and this seems to be a fantastic starter rifle."
"This gun is very good. Obviously you got the pownage of the M16 and the red dot is pretty good"
"Great gun for starters, only problem is the grip breaks off easily. Other than that it works great."
"First airsoft rifle, hope is good"
"I love the high capacity gravity feed it takes a while to run out, the bad side to these kinds of guns is that you can't sight down the barrel, you end up having to watch where the bb's fly"
hard to cock and aim at the same time
noisy reloaing=give away position
My recomendation is that you buy a shotgun that does NOT use shells. They are the same(or better) fps and are easier to cock.
"i am about to get my first gun with a $60 dollar budget with bbs and gear and i was wondering if i should get this gun over the wellfire m4 ris tacspec aeg.
please reply"
"I personally think you should get the DE M4A1 RIS Full Size Automatic Electric AEG Rifle w/Flashlight and Red Dot Scope.
its an amazing gun for price, and the only one i can think of that compares for same or similar price is DE R36C TacSpec Full Size Automatic Electric AEG Rifle w/ Flashlight and Red Dot Scope
but that one always seems to be out of stock."
"Good gun for starters.
Good rate of fire
decently accurate (some bullets shoot off up or sideways)
long battery life
Scope holds BB's
Battery goes in magazine
Gravity fed always gets jammed after so many shots because BB's stick on each other and block the hole."
"I was really excited because it looks so cool right! It fell out of my hand and destroyed into 3 pieces! my message is simple: DON'T GET RIP OFFED LIKE I DID ND GO BUY SOMETHING ELSE!!! DO NOT WASTE MONEY"

Barbican Centre
CommentsAdd +
Find out what's on at the concrete arts centre in the heart of the City
The Barbican Centre, a vast concrete estate of 2,000 flats and a leading arts complex, is a prime example of brutalist architecture, softened a little by time and rectangular ponds of friendly resident ducks.
The lakeside terrace and adjoining café are good spots to take a rest from visiting the art gallery, cinema, theatre, concert hall or library that are housed within the complex.
The art gallery on the third floor stages exhibitions on design, architecture and pop culture, while on the ground floor, the Curve is a free exhibition space for specially commissioned works and contemporary art.
At the core of the music roster, performing 90 concerts a year, is the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO). The annual BITE season (Barbican International Theatre Events) continues to cherry-pick exciting and eclectic theatre companies from around the globe. The Barbican regularly attracts and nurtures experimental dance, and The Pit theatre is an intimate performance space.
What's on at the Barbican Centre
The Barbican cinema screens a mix of arthouse films, special seasons and new releases, with strands dedicated to anime, silent film and architecture. It hosts screenings of work from a variety of Londonwide film festivals and shows kids' films on Saturday mornings.

Two weeks ago, I blogged about the mounting combination of anxiety and excitement leading up to my trip to Nigeria. Outside of the exceptional opportunities for investors in the country's capital markets — which did little to soothe my fears as a traveler — I'd heard few reassuring stories about Lagos. Meanwhile, my imagination went to work on the news reports, rumors and exaggerated tourist tales I had heard, conjuring up images of an urban center descended into anarchy.
I should have known better!
Jindra Zitek '08 and I arrived at the Lagos airport expecting to be harassed by an unruly mob of aggressive taxi drivers, con artists or worse. We found instead only a few families waiting for their loved ones. The first person to approach us was our smiling classmate, Gbolade Arinoso '08, wearing his finest traditional Nigerian clothes. From the moment we exited the airport, we knew we'd have to throw all preconceived notions about Lagos out the window.
In fact, throughout our week in the city, we were struck by how poorly we'd misimagined the place. At no point did we feel threatened in any way. Rather, we were welcomed warmly by everyone we met, from security guards and restaurant workers to private equity investors and government officials.
In the end, it was this inviting stance toward foreigners that made our project such a success. Our goal was to write a world-class business school case study about Computer Warehouse Group, West Africa's leading IT systems integrator. As soon as we explained our project, we found that the local business community was quick to rally around us. Even normally secretive private equity firms were willing to openly discuss their valuations of the company!
Ironically, it was the very hospitality that made our trip so exhausting: the 9–5 work days were simply too short to speak with all the people who so generously offered their time. We frequently found ourselves meeting deep into the evenings, exploring the intricacies of valuing the IT services company in the Nigerian context. We learned more than we ever imagined — about the firm, the country and, most of all, about the tricks our imagination can play on us when we operate on incomplete information!

Spas >Le Reve Skin Care & Spa
1106-108th Ave, NE, Ste 111, Bellevue, WA | Directions 9800447.620334 -122.196212
10am - 7pm daily by appointment
Best Facial and Massage Ever! – I went last night for the first time on a Living Social deal. I have been to A LOT of salons and spas and for me, the first impression sets the tone for your visit. From first walking in, the place was clean and soothing after a long work day and the ladies were friendly and ready to get started.
I had a massage by Oxana and OH MY GOODNESS! She is a small lady but is super strong! She listened to what I needed work on and made me feel so much better as well as oh so relaxed. She really knows the body and I will be going back to her! She even showed me some stretches for my back to do at home. I put on the plush robe and slippers and next was my facial with Inna.
Her facial room was warm, clean and well decorated with a welcoming Parisian theme. And don't get me started about that awesome reclining chair with a warmer! She has you under a soft plush blanket and sheet and you immediately relax. Inna took her time and was very focused on my skin and developing a customized regimen which would compliment my skin type and issues. She used LED and hot stones and included my decolletage and upper arms. I was putty in her hands. She finished up with a vitamin serum (that I am going to try to buy next time) and when I got in the car and looked in the mirror my skin was dewy and fresh. This morning my makeup went on beautifully and the non-chemical sunscreen I purchased did just as she said it would.
I am completely addicted to these ladies' skills and will be a regular. I already purchased my next package! Thank you Inna and Oxana! See you soon. :)
Best.Facial.Ever! – Inna is a miracle worker with your skin. I've been going to spa's for years and it wasn't until I met Inna that my skin literally started to change. It's amazing, most of my facials lasted several days. With Inna, I feel like my skin still looks facial-fresh after a week or two.
The facial consists of a full hour and a half experience – complete with head, arm, hand and feet massage. No tips. Parking is free, need to drive into the garage behind and her products and techniques are mostly from Europe. I highly recommend changing over your product line, if that's doable, because in addition to monthly facials and daily care, they've made all the difference with my congestion and dry/flaky skin.
Inna is warm, laser-focused on getting results for you and it's too chatty. Her techniques and products are most from Europe and work, for me. She's the owner/founder of the spa and the place itself is clean, comfortable and homey.
This is the one thing I religiously do because I feel so great about my skin and I truly get completely pampered with a full body experience every time I go.
Best Facials Ever! – I've had many facials all around the US and after a while I kind of gave up. I'd walk out feeling like it was a waste of money...but not at Le Reve. If you want to walk out feeling like you glow and that you spent your money for something worth while, then get a facial from Inna.
After going to Inna I immediately started for the first time to get compliments on my skin. If you want to do something great for yourself with long term affects, get facials from Inna.
P.S. also the best bikini wax ever...i think i've got over 10 friends addicted.
Best Spa for both ends! – I am a regular at Le Reve Skin Care and Spa. The best facials and the best Brazillian wax on the eastside are done right here in this unassuming yet very elegant spa. Inna, the owner, is amazing at taking care of all of your beauty needs. During the facial, you get a neck, arm, and foot massage. The brazillians are done expertly and thoroughly. Great place and convenient too.
Very Impressed! – I had been searching for years for the truly "lifting facial" and after watching a show on Oprah about this technique - I googled the procedure and found La Reve. Inna is incrediably knowledgable. In fact, I have never met anyone in this field who is a specialist in skin care; like she is.
Wonderful service, cute location- clean. I would highly recommend the "lift facial" with light treatment to anyone!
Truly European Approach – It is very hard to find a place in the States where you dont feel that you are paying for something, not counting feeling of cheapness. If I go to a place where I have these feelings, I never come back. La Reve on the other, I would come back to. I have been in many salons in the States and in Europe and can say that this is one of the places where I feel at home and not just paying for the service. The owners and specialists are exceptionally welcome, stylish, and professional. Every time I go there, I come out with a feeling of being reborn. I have been in La Reve two times and received facial and massage services and would recommend them to others. When I try other services that La Reve offers, which I definitely will, I am going to expand my review. :)
Micro-Current Face Lift – I've read previous review and decided to say couple words of my own too. I've been a client at Le Reve for only 2 months since I heard Inna on the Positive Choice Talk Radio Station. She was talking about the non-surgical face lift and giving quite deep discounts on the initial session. I've seen the micro-current face lift procedure earlier on Oprah and it looked like they were using the same piece of equipment. I thought it was time for me to go too. I liked Le Reve a lot - it's very cozy, clean and friendly, and all therapists are extremely educated and efficient. After the demo lift the results were so amazing, that I signed up for 12 more sessions. Like my husband said recently I had "happy face". Thank you Le Reve.
DREAM OF MY LIFE – Finally I found what I've been looking for years. Privacy, confidentiality, professionalism and style - all in one. Global range of treatments - European skin care, 4-&-6-hand massages from Cypress & Thailand, Thalasso-&-Pelo-body therapy from France @ Belgium. Exotic ingredients from Fiji, Mexica and much more... You want to know why I sound so professional - because I've been in beauty industry myself for over 36 years. Currently retired, I fully rely on these wonderful girls at Le Reve - I knew from my first facial there I was in proper hands - warm, caring, professional, healing. Micro-current face lift - this is what I'm going through right now - as sceptic as I might be - I really see the results. Come & try. Recommended by ex-beauty professional.
Bobby Marrs – When I arrived at Le Reve the first thing I noticed was the incredible atmosphere. Then I got to meet there awesome staff who feel good to be around. Then I had the pleasure of having a 4 hand Vishi Shower and 4 Hand Syncronized Massage. It was HEAVAN. I think any persone who hasn't had the opportunity to have this, should!
I went to Le Reve yesterday and had my first services there. First I thought it was very nicely done, extremely attractive in there, parking was easy and the staff quite pleasant. But most importantly, it was far and away the best facial I have ever had, which is really saying something because I've had alot. My technician was very thorough, well educated, and just really had "great hands". I can't imagine why I'd ever want to go anywhere else now that I've had that experience. Everyone who truly wants an aesthetician should go for a visit.

Today's guest blogger, REI employee Ching Fu, recounts the soaring highs and chilly lows of her bike tour of the entire Skyline Drive and Blue Ridge Parkway last summer: It had been raining for 3 days straight, and I was ready to just be home. But I had to keep pedaling. The bitter cold rain was an unwelcome surprise, especially since it was July in the southeast... ...
One of my better Thanksgivings was spent years ago on the slopes of the Chisos Mountains in Big Bend National Park, a gorgeous, 800,000-acre confluence of desert, mountain and riparian environments in a far-flung corner of southwest Texas. It was warm, sunny and dry my entire 2-week stay in the park in late November. My only misstep the whole trip: On Thanksgiving night, surrounded by sotol stalks and serenaded by (I'm guessing) a handful of coyotes, dinner was a pot of spaghetti. Nothing wrong ...

Q&A: The Silent Legend
An Interview with Alfons Mayer, the globe-travelling tobacco buyer for General Cigar Co.
David Savona
From the Print Edition:
Morgan Freeman, Mar/Apr 2005
(continued from page 4)
Q: What is your impression of the old Cuban tobacco, how does that differ from your impression of Cuban tobacco now, and what are the prospects for the future?
A: I would say the good plantations—the excellent plantations in San Luis, Corojo—never changed. They are still the top-quality tobacco you can lay your hands on, because of the climatic conditions in the Pinar del Río area. I have a book from 1945, every word on how they work in Pinar del Río. When I got to Cuba in 1992, there was not a book to be found, anywhere, not in the university. The government took over. It is quite different when you are run by government than by private companies buying tobacco knowing exactly where to go, because those farmers, pre-Castro, got a much better price and were much more enthusiastic to get the quality of tobacco the way it should be than be taken over by the government, who says you have to do this, and you get paid that much. And everybody the same. That's the difference. The second category [in later years] is they needed dollars, and they didn't give [the tobacco] the sufficient age and preparation—put it in yagua for a year and a half to two years and check those bales out between A, B and C. A means use, B means wait until it becomes an A, and C from C to B to A. And that's what we did [in the '50s]. We didn't use all 500 bales, we probably got the first time 30 or 40 bales, then they go to the country and they got assessed.
Q: How long would they age the tobacco in the '50s in Cuba?
A: Those bales would go at least for a year and a half, two years, in Havana, where it is much more moist, in those stone warehouses. You cannot age tobacco in the country, because it's too dry.
Q: Were they still taking the same care with the tobacco when you went back to Cuba in '92?
A: I saw yagua in the warehouses in '92—but the rooms were almost empty. They needed dollars. And [they] sped up the [aging] time. But they got eye-openers, they knew what was wrong.
Q: So they've made changes?
A: They made changes, they're going back to the quality and preservations and timing that they find makes better cigars than before.
Q: Do you think the Cuban cigars being made today are better than those made in the mid-'90s?
A: I would say, yes. The biggest problem for the public is there are so many cigars coming in from Santo Domingo and other places, contraband.

Nancy, I was "nervous", "scared", "unsure" of yeast breads for the longest time. I had several bread failures. I saw an advertisement for King Arthur Flour they were doing a "Road Show" in my area so I went. Well watching them make bread and pastry it looked so easy I decided to try again. Well I had a huge success. I guess watching someone do it took a bit of the stress off. Once I relaxed a bit things went well.Search their web site for some great recipes and they have several "No Knead" breads in their recipe section. http://www.kingarthurflour even if you don't use their flour just to see how some of the breads are done. Have fun with it and if it is what I would call a "Spectacular Failure" feed the birds with your failure they will appreciate the effort.
