Voters headed to the polls in New Jersey for the state's primary election Tuesday.
Low voter turnout was expected, but Bill Duffy with the Warren County Board of Elections was staying busy.
"I've been working with mail-in ballots. We have to check the certifications to make sure signatures check and go through all that information to make sure we're getting proper identification and so forth," said Duffy. "Just keeping everything going to make sure that we get ready for tonight when the poll workers bring back the CD's so we can count the ballots from the machines."
Duffy said there are 89 polling locations in Warren County.
"We have to be open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. no matter whether one person shows out or all of the voters show out," he said.
Voters who came out to cast ballots at a polling location in Lopatcong Township told 69 News they wanted their voices heard and they encouraged others to do the same. Lopatcong voters weighed in on the race for mayor among other races.
"I always do. It's my civic duty," said voter Paul Whitman. "Just come on out and vote, whichever side you're on, whoever you're voting for, make your vote count because it doesn't count unless you do."
"I think they should take advantage of it because if they're going to complain about it later at least they've done something about it beforehand," said voter Leslie Fronczak.
Voter James Winterfeld said, "It's our opportunity to state our case and what we want to happen in the future so if we don't come out then we have no right to complain in the future."
Polls close at 8 p.m. Tuesday.

Tuesday, March 19, 2013
Voting in the First Congressional District primary continued this afternoon, with poll workers reporting turnout hovering around 10 percent.
Observers from the U.S. Department of Justice were at several polling places to scrutinize implementation of the state's new photo ID requirement. Poll workers said most voters were well-prepared with their photo IDs.
Fort Dorchester High School had recorded 306 voters by about 4 p.m.
One was Thomas Hughes, who voted for former Gov. Mark Sanford. "I like him. He's a man of integrity," Hughes said.
Like others who voted for Sanford, Hughes said he separated the governor's personal problems from his political life.
Jane Shealey voted for Elizabeth Colbert Busch in the Democratic primary, and she was hopeful about Colbert Busch's chances in the general election.
"I think they're higher than most people might judge, because she's such a unique candidate," Shealey said. "It's time for a good woman from South Carolina."
At Fort Dorchester Elementary School, Wanda Murray also chose Colbert Busch.
She said she related to Colbert Busch as a single parent and believes she has a strong business sense.
Beth Watkins voted for former Dorchester County Sheriff Ray Nash. He's a good man, she said. "I'm very happy he's back in the U.S. and I think he'll make a great Congresssman," she said.
Watkins and Murray were among the 393 voters who had come to Fort Dorchester Elementary by 4:30 p.m.
Voting has been a steady trickle, poll workers at three Summerville polling places said Tuesday.
Voters in the First Congressional District are choosing their party nominees today. Democrats have only two choices, Elizabeth Colbert Busch or Ben Frasier, while Republicans must choose among 16 candidates.
But one name kept recurring among voters: Mark Sanford.
"I trust him. He's done a good job in the past," said Paulette Gazaille, outside the ROTC building at Summerville High School.
Paul Gazaille said Sanford's political track record is what's important. Other candidates are touting their status as good Christian family men, and that's all well and good, but "we need someone who can hit the ground running," he said.
John Kalinofski considered Teddy Turner, but ultimately stuck with Sanford. New people in Washington don't know what's going on the way someone with experience does, he said.
Maridelia Bulloch chose Sanford because she trusts him.
"If he's in good standing with God, it's not my place to judge him," she said, referring to Sanford's infamous extramarital affair."I think he can do the job."
Sanford and Sen. Tim Scott will make a good team, she said.
At Bethany United Methodist Church, Lynne Chatellier also voted for Sanford.
"I like his policies," she said.
Not everyone was enamored of the former governor and congressman, however.
At Summerville Church of Christ, Dusty Jones voted for John Kuhn. "He seems to be the smartest one out of the 19 or 20 up there," she said.
Audrey Holzhausen voted for Curtis Bostic. She chose him because he is pro-life and a Constitutionalist, she said.
Most all of the candidates claim those positions, she noted, but she has confidence Bostic actually means it. "It is something I do know about him," she said.
Likewise, Tina and Jeff Hartig at Summerville High School voted for Bostic. "He just seems to be a person of integrity," Tina Hartig said.
The couple also considered former Dorchester County Sheriff Ray Nash.
Among the Republicans, there were a number of Democrats who came out for the race between favorite Colbert Busch and perennial candidate Frasier.
Karen Campbell voted for Colbert Busch, but she said she wondered if she should bother, given Colbert Busch's "pretty slim" chances of winning the general election.
"Nevertheless, I still have to do my little part," she said.

Six Changes Social Security Is Making to Its Disability Program
The Social Security Administration is undertaking a number of changes to the way it determines whether someone qualifies for disability benefits. Here are six major shifts underway.
1.) Listings. When someone applies for disability benefits, the agency considers whether the person can do any job in the local area. It uses people called "vocational experts" to try and match the applicant's background with various occupations. But the agency asks these vocational experts to use a "dictionary" of more than 10,000 job listings that hasn't been updated since 1991. It still includes job titles like "show girl," "blacksmith," and "chick sexer," or someone whose job is to determine the sex of a chicken. It doesn't really account for the recent technology boom that has created scores of job opportunities in the technology sector (many of these jobs are sedentary and could be easier for someone who, for example, can't stand on their feet for hours at a time). Rewriting this dictionary, however, is expected to take years. It probably won't be completed until at least 2016 (and perhaps later than that).
2.) The Grid. Social Security administrative law judges use something referred to as the "grid" to determine whether many people qualify for benefits. For example, if you are older than 60, have a fifth-grade education, and have major depression and a severe heart condition, the chances are very high you are getting benefits. If you are 42, have mild depression, and have a doctorate in engineering, you have a very low chance of getting disability. The agency hasn't updated this grid in years, though. And many judges believe it's easy for lawyers and others to "work" the grid by knowing precisely what will qualify for benefits and then tailoring an application to win awards. The grid also doesn't reflect that many workers can continue working well into their 60s and 70s in quite productive positions.

3.) Disclosure. The Wall Street Journal in December 2011 wrote an article about a disability firm that routinely withheld from government submissions medical records that, according to five former employees, could have been damaging to client claims. This triggered a big debate within the agency. Many believed this shouldn't be allowed, while others said the agency had proposed cracking down on this behavior but repeatedly backed away in the face of pressure.
A top agency official said last month that it will soon propose a new rule that will deal with preventing firms and others from withholding information related to a disability application. But the official wouldn't say what the proposal might look like, or how strict it might be.
4.) Caseload. The Social Security Administration, to tackle a large backlog of cases, pumped case volume up for judges who could handle incredible caseloads. The agency wanted all judges to do between 500 and 700 cases a year. But a number of judges several years ago were handling more than 1,000 cases a year (and at least one judge handled more than twice that amount). Many judges complained there was no way they could properly scrutinize complicated medical files if they had to push so many cases through the system, and the agency eventually capped the number of cases a judge could hear. The cap has been lowered at least twice in the past two years, and is currently around 800 cases.
5.) Doctors and Lawyers. The agency and its inspector general are launching a project to try to determine whether "third-party" groups in the disability system are facilitating fraud of any kind. They are looking, specifically, at whether doctors and lawyers are somehow cheating the system. This task force has only just begun and it hasn't identified any targets or findings.
6.) Job Description. Becoming a Social Security Administration judge used to be a posh assignment. Many felt they had the equivalent of a lifetime appointment, as it was very hard for a judge to be removed from his or her post. But the agency on Sunday is changing the job description to make clear that judges are subject to several layers of supervision. It has also toughened the scrutiny of judges and can push them toward intensified training if a judge's numbers (such as the percentage of applicants he or she awards benefits to) is outside the norm.

Augustana Grad Earns Top Education Award
LeeAnna Rabine, Augustana class of 2005 and a kindergarten teacher at Hawthorne Elementary School in Sioux Falls, received a Milken Educator Award along with a $25,000 check earlier today.
Top 25 Places New Grads Call Home
According to a new report published this week by City Observatory, a new, national think tank, young college graduates are looking beyond well-known metropolitan hubs like San Francisco and New York, and are increasingly opting for smaller-but-still-urban cities such as Denver, Portland and Minneapolis as places to call home. According to a LinkedIn analysis, recent Augustana grads appear to be following the same national trend.

Herbivore and Pathogen Induced Defense Strategies in Conifers
Although our understanding of plant defense mechanisms has grown rapidly in recent years, most of the new knowledge has been obtained from studies on herbaceous species, especially the model plants Arabidopsis thaliana, Medicago truncatula, tomato, potato, maize and rice. Much less is known about the types of defenses employed by woody plants. Consequently, it is not clear if the deployment of chemical defense in woody taxa is fundamentally the same as that in herbaceous plants. Woody plants are usually larger and live longer than herbaceous plants, have a different life history as well, and thus may be subject to different patterns of herbivore and pathogen pressure. In addition, woody plants have unique tissues, such as those resulting from secondary growth of the stem, and so may require different modes of protection.
In order to gain a complete picture of defense in the plant kingdom, it is essential to know more about the defenses of a variety of woody plants, both angiosperms and gymnosperms. Conifers are a distinctive and widespread group of woody gymnosperms whose 500-600 species include some of the largest and longest-lived representatives of the plant kingdom. They are a significant climax species, dominating most of the major forest ecosystems of Europe, Asia and North America. Of the 8-9 recognized families, the largest and geographically most widespread is the Pinaceae which includes Pinus, Abies, Larix, Pseudotsuga, and Picea.
As a model species for studying conifer defense, we have chosen Picea abies (Norway spruce), the most abundant and economically-important conifer species in northern and central Europe. Much is already known about the herbivore and pest problems of P. abies, and this information will be valuable in studying its defense mechanisms. In our group, we are examining the induced chemical defenses of P. abies, defenses whose levels increase following herbivore or pathogen attack. Induced defenses have attracted much attention in recent years because of their widespread occurrence in plants. We study the induction of several different classes of induced defenses in P. abies, including terpene-containing resins and phenolic compounds. Our focus is not only on their defensive roles, but also on how the levels of these compounds may be manipulated by biochemical and molecular methods while minimizing other phenotypic changes. Manipulation of defense compounds in intact plants is a valuable approach to examining their ecological role in the plant.
Characterization of isoprenyl diphosphate synthases as branch point of terpenoid biosynthesis
The conifer Picea abies (Norway spruce) employs terpenoid-based oleoresins as part of its constitutive and induced defense responses against herbivores and pathogens. Attack by herbivores, such as bark beetles and their associated fungi Ceratocystis polonica, often induces the production of additional newly composed resin in newly formed traumatic resin ducts (TRD). Conifer resins are complex mixtures of monoterpenes (C10), sesquiterpenes (C15), diterpenes (C20) whose composition varies among and within species and with age and development of the tree. In order to understand how metabolic flux is channeled among the different terpene types, we are investigating the short-chain isoprenyl diphosphate synthases (IDS) that catalyze the condensation of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) to form geranyl diphosphate (GPP), farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) and geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP). These branch point reactions control the flow of metabolites which act as precursors to each of the major terpene classes in the trunk resin of Picea abies (Norway spruce).
Role of endosymbiotic gut bacteria of Hylobius abietis in detoxification of terpenes
This project is a collaboration between the Herbivore and Pathogen Induced Defense Strategies in Conifers Research Group and the Insect Symbiosis Research Group.
The pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) is a major pest in European conifer forests where adults feed on the bark and cambium of Norway spruce and pine seedlings. Conifers are protected against bark-feeding herbivores by a complex mixture of secondary metabolites, mainly terpenoid-based oleoresins, and phenolic compounds. Therefore, adult pine weevils must cope with a complex mixture of noxious secondary metabolites in their diet, in addition to the problem of utilizing a food source that mainly consists of lignocellulose.
Many insects are known to harbor symbiotic microorganisms in their digestive system that allow the host to subsist on suboptimal diets by enhancing digestion efficiency, supplementing the diet with limiting vitamins or amino acids, or detoxifying plant secondary metabolites. However, little is known about degradation of lignin or mono-, and sesquiterpenes, as well as diterpene resin acids, the components of coniferous resin by symbiotic microorganisms.
We are exploring how the pine weevil copes with high concentrations of terpenes present in the host bark and cambium, by elucidating the metabolic fate of these compounds and their effect on the beetle. In order to understand the possible role of gut microorganisms in terpene detoxification as well as in wood digestion, we are using culture-dependent and -independent methods as well as metabolic and genomic analyses to functionally characterize the pine weevil's gut microbiota. Elucidating the fate of terpenes in this system will shed some light on how insects cope with plant induced defenses and how some symbionts allow their hosts to exploit otherwise inaccessible food sources.

it comes to electric vehicles, DailyTech
has mostly covered the consumer side of things. General Motors is
going full steam ahead with its Volt
"extended range" electric vehicle, Nissan is developing
its all-electric
Leaf, and Tesla is hitting a higher price point with its Roadster
and Model S all-electric vehicles.
all-electric vehicles aren't just limited to the consumer market --
they can also make sense for the commercial market as well. A year
ago today, DailyTech
first brought you news that Ford would introduce
an electric version of its small but capable Transit Connect
commercial van. Ford is making good on that promise and today
announced the 2011 Transit Connect Electric.
2011 Ford Transit Connect Electric was developed in conjunction with
Azure Dynamics Corporation and uses a "Force Drive"
electric powertrain. The vehicle uses a 50 kW electric motor and the
28 kWh lithium-ion battery pack -- developed in conjunction with
Johnson Controls-Saft -- allows the Transit Connect Electric to
travel up to 80 miles on a charge. Top speed for the vehicle is 75
mph, so don't expect the Transit Connect Electric to keep up with
Atlanta highway traffic anytime soon.
says that the Transit Connect Electric can be recharged from either
120V or 240V outlets.
Connect Electric exemplifies how we are leveraging our relationships
as well as our hybrid and advanced powertrain programs to bring
energy-efficient technologies from the laboratory to the street,"
said Derrick Kuzak, Ford group vice president, Global Product
Development. "Not only is this an ideal vehicle for eco-conscious
fleet operators, it is an important part of Ford's future."
vehicles actually are meant for specific types of customers that have
a predictable drive route, continued Praveen Cherian, Program Manager
of the Transit Connect. Most of our customers have said, look we
don't drive more than 50-60 miles on a give day and these commercial
customers like, for example, florists or a handyman, plumber, or a
Best Buy Geek Squad, utility type purposes vehicle… so we've
designed this vehicle to have a range of 80 miles on a full state of
with a large lithium-ion battery packed into the Transit Connect
Electric's compact frame, the 181-inch vehicle still has 135 cu-ft of
cargo space which is almost as much as a Chevrolet Suburban.
has not announced pricing for the Transit Connect Electric yet, but
do expect to pay a premium for the luxury of not having to worry
about using gasoline anymore. The base price of a standard Transit
Connect is $20,780, so let's hope that Ford can keep the price of the
Transit Connect Electric below $30,000.
the launch of the Transit Connect Electric, Ford says that it will
also launch an all-electric version of its next
generation Focus next year.
quote: I disagree, but obviously this is a very gray issue that is hard to prove one way or another.
quote: This particular area is a perfect example. There is specifically a need out there for transit like electric fleet vehicles and Ford is far from the only one bringing products to the market. Smith Electric is just one example. Why else do you think the Post office is looking so closely at this? And no it isn't a new Obama thing, they have been looking at electrics for years and it is specifically LiFePO4 batteries that are allowing it to be cost effective.
quote: BTW, why such the hate for Public sector investment in new technology? Actually I don't mind if it is consistent statement. But the same people I see calling for government investment in private space flight for example will decry a $7500 expiring tax credit on EVs.
quote: It's not hard to prove that a $30,000 (after $7,500 subsidy) car is unaffordable by the vast majority of consumers.
quote: I have no hate for public investment in principle, although a lot of DT members would claim to (until it comes to defense or space flight, yes). The problem is that a $7,500 tax credit is subsidizing the relatively wealthy. It's trickle-down economics taken to a sick level, with the environment being used as an excuse. I am against this instance of the investment, not the principle of it.
quote: Its a ridiculous benchmark because hundred of thousands if not millions of cars are already selling for more then $37,500. I hope your not trying to claim that you can't sell a car for $37,500.
quote: Also the government certainly has an interest in the development of transportation technologies and a reduction in the use of gasoline. There is already significant subsidy towards gasoline, such as tax breaks for oil companies, "defense" spending directed at the middle east and externalities like air pollution.

"Keeps Charlie dry"
Charlie was spade too soon in her life thanks to getting her from the aspca and a vet who should be more careful. Well the short version to my second wife as my first wife calls her because she is with me 24/7 unless I go to town and will be out of the truck where she can't go. At three she has been in Leaks no more since about 8 months and I make sure she gets three doses a day. When I keep her schedule the world is happy and mt first wife smiles. If your friend has a leaking problem keep the schedule and they will not get either of you in trouble. IT WORKS!
"The Best"
Our 14 yr old Red Heeler was not always able to hold herself. She was leaving spots and then she would try to lick them up. Now she gets 10 drops 3x a day in a little bit of milk. She thinks she is getting a treat and comes running for it. So glad we found this product.
We didn't know what to do with our 2 year old spayed lab. She was peeing even while asleep or walking without knowing it. Vet said she was normal (yea right). Found homeopet leaks no more and am thrilled with the results. Wish it was in pill form!
"Leaks No More"
Our dog, an American Eskimo Spitz, is about 12 years old. Her constant leaking became a serious problem a couple years ago.Our vet prescribed the standard conventional treatments, which worked for a little while, but also made her genitals swell up, which looked pretty weird. After a few moths she began leaking again. Someone mentioned Leaks No More to us, and we have been using it for over a year now. The results are dramatic. Our dog has literally stopped leaking. I recommend this product.

Item Description
Fiddler Tammy Rogers was born in Tennessee in 1966 and raised in Irving, TX. As an adolescent, she was taught classical music but also performed regularly with her family at bluegrass festivals. After graduating college, she joined Patty Loveless' backing band, which she followed with a stint backing Trisha Yearwood. After leaving Yearwood, Rogers became a prominent session musician, supporting Kieran Kane on both his final record for Atlantic Records and on his subsequent tour. When Kane was dropped by Atlantic, he formed his own label, Dead Reckoning, and Rogers soon became one of the company's first signings. Her 1995 debut, In the Red, was a collaborative instrumental effort with noted session drummer Don Heffington; her next effort, an eponymously titled 1996 effort, featured both her songwriting and vocal skills. - Allmusic.com
It is natural but unfortunate that In the Red is generally reviewed and regarded as a Tammy Rogers solo release. It is the fate of percussionists to be underappreciated, but she gave credit where credit was due. This release is credited to both Tammy Rogers and Don Heffington, and with good reason. He wrote or co-wrote half the tunes here, and his tasteful playing adds color and depth to pieces that cross the sonic spectrum from Tex-Mex to country to Middle Eastern music. They are wonderful together, his bodhran playing the kind of melody lines usually reserved for the bass guitar on "Get Out While You Can" while she plays an Arabic-inspired fiddle line. Though she has been pigeonholed as a country artist, Rogers shows herself adept at a variety of instruments and styles. When the two do play country music here, they give it some delightful twists, as in "John's Tune," where she plays the Norwegian Hardanger fiddle and he plays Irish bodhran. It does sound like country music, albeit with undeniable and interesting influences. Rogers and Heffington each take one vocal turn, both on original gospel pieces, and though hers is by far the more accomplished, both are effective and sound heartfelt. In the Red has simplicity of theme and subtlety of execution, plus 11 great original tunes and one classic. This CD is a must-have for anyone who appreciates instrumental bluegrass and Americana. - Allmusic.com

"The AIR JORDAN XX8 shoe really is basketball's answer to the concept car." – Tinker Hatfield
The theme of the Air Jordan XX8 is 'Stealth' and the ability to cloak itself from detection, but just because one can't see it doesn't mean one should let its guard down. There's a lot of engineering and technology that went into the design concept of the Air Jordan XX8, so who better than Tinker Hatfield and Josh Heard to direct you through a complete break-down of the shoe? We've got a video with Tinker and Josh giving their insights on this incredible new design, so check out the feature and stay tuned for more as we near the release of the XX8 in February, and don't miss out on the debut tonight when Russell Westbrook wears 'em against the Nets!

Filed under: Air Jordan Upcoming Sneakers
while wearing this ugly shoe, it would be the first time in my life i would not care if i stepped on dog poo.
Looks like the Jordan Boxing shoes
Just stop they are getting worse every year!
People are scared of change..... com'on just get them
watching the thunder vs nets game, i cant front, these 28s look good on feet zipped up. but i see them unzipping as westbrook plays in them, which could be a problem if they unzip as the feet move
I think some of the features of the shoe are good. Just a few things Tinker said I have issues with. When he said basketball players are more like sprinters, the Zoom Kidd 5 was designed with a sprinter spike in mind. If a shoe is designed well enough the Heel should not slip at all. That is was a heel counter is supposed to do.
i do, i like em, too
My opinion, All the Air Jordan XX8s need are spikes at the bottom and they'll be called the Under armour Highlight Cleats.
Folded down, they look nice. That whole zip-up thing? No.
I think these are dope but that damn zipper sleeve is killing. its just to big. why couldnt they keep it mid cut?
Was Jordan Brand jealous of Under Armor's ugly high top sneaker? These suck no way around It and I bet retail will be around $250 or more.
some of XX8 colourways in the background looked pretty interesting...
Should have stopped at XX3. I mean these are horrible. Maybe great performance wise, but to the eye, TRASH. Whoever designed the Lebrons needs to assist Tinker and co.
these are hot garbage juice. bunch of old white guys showing us what looks good these days? I'll stick to my retros. you know the ones MJ actually wore.
I luv these! cant wait till they drop!!! and wont have to pay that mens sz price and deff no hype on these so no lines, and did anybody noticed the other colorways in the backround
I was never really the best at math but ummm didnt JB skip 24, 25, 26, and 27?
And Sneakernews can yall get rid of that dumb @$$ complex bar that covers up everything smh
maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan I like them! lol
@damruff oops...I meant UA.
@damruff You do realize these have been in development for over a year? Unlike AU's shoe this shoe can go from high to low top. AU's is just a high top. Plus this marks the progression of one shoe suitable for all positions. Unlike previous models you don't have all the interchangeable parts. No need to change out a booty, just zip the shroud up or down. Not the prettiest Jordan, but its definitely innovative.
@dsuaveallday the LeBrons didn't start looking good until the 7 and haven't looked good after the 8
@TruthSays you do realize one of those old white guys designed the j's you hold so close to your heart. And what does the fact their white have anything to do with designing a shoe? Do I love the shoes? No! I don't ball anymore so I could care less about performance. Are they innovative? Yes! Ugly innovation at that. But I remember people calling the Jordan xiii's ugly when it was unveiled too.
So that means you cant wear the 9s then since mj retired by that time,also you cant wear anything from 15-23 (excluding 17s and 18s)
@zzwrory2 AJ 2009 = AJ 24; AJ2010 = AJ25; AJ2011 = AJ26; AJ2012 = AJ27
@Steelo_Brown @damruff Who cares if these have been in development for over a year they still look terrible to me. I do play basketball but no way would I pay $250 for these, once they hit outlets if the price drops to $100 I'd try them out on court because of the technology but I'm not going out of my way to get these.
@Gusto correct. 9s are nice too but idk what JB is so proud of with these.
@BoricuaSole @TruthSays Jordan did wear the 9s during his days with the wizards too. But those were retros by then
@BoricuaSole never was a fan of the 9's until the recent release of the Motorboat Jones'. Retros are just timeless to me. The new stuff is trash

Meet Cary Beacon, a superhero in his own mind. Cary's mission to rescue his kidnapped stepkids leads him to Mexico, where he teams up with El Yucatango, a gonzo masked wrestler on a mission of vengeance. As Cary and El Yucatango fight the battle of their lives to save the kids, Cary's disappearance forces together his fractured family back home, torn apart by a fiery tragedy years ago.
The parallel quests of Cary and his family link to an explosive moment in true-life history: the KKK's 1924 siege of the immigrant mining town of Lilly, Pennsylvania, which left a curse on the Beacon family. Can delusional Cary break the curse? If he and his siblings reunite as their childhood backyard alter egos, The Nuclear Family, maybe they stand a chance.

"Robert T. Jeschonek is a towering talent." (Mike Resnick, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author)
"Robert Jeschonek is the literary love child of Tim Burton and NeilGaiman - his fiction is cutting edge, original, and pulsing with dark and fantastical life. His stories suck me in and refuse to let me go until the last page, even as his characters are busy stealing my heart." (Adrian Phoenix, critically acclaimed author of The Maker's Song series and Black Dust Mambo)
"It's about the people behind the masks - the former Klansman who devotes his life to helping the oppressed, the loony luchador who wants one last chance at cosmic retribution, and the steadfast and earnest tiny tots of the Nuclear Family." (Eric Searleman, SuperheroNovels.com)
Uninteresting storyline and characters. Awful, redundant prose. I rarely give up on a book, but the writing was so awful that I yelled in frustration at the author on several occasions and didn't even get through the first half.
I'm not even sure what genre this is.
Yes, the narration was OK.
All of them.

Hello people,
I've been assigned to usability test a portal. Unfortunately I can only test the portal based on Usability heuristics at the moment. (And only SOME pages of the portal)
To my surprise, the portal lack basic usability principle such as a hover effect/mouse-over effect.

2010 was another record year for dairy exports
2010 was another record year for dairy exports
Any doubt that the U.S. is once and for all a major player in global dairy exports can be put to rest by its record achievements in 2010. According to the U.S. Dairy Export Council:
• Total milk solids exports were 3.04 billion pounds, up 40 percent from 2009.
• Total export value was $3.71 billion, up 63 percent.
• Export volume (total solids basis) was 12.8 percent of all milk production, up 38 percent.
• All-time records were set for exports of nonfat dry milk/skim milk powders, dry whey and cheese.
The 2010 totals pushed U.S. export volume well past the old record of 11 percent of milk production equivalent set in 2008. Onset of the global recession cut U.S. dairy exports to 9.3 percent of total production in 2009.
How significant is 12.8 percent of U.S. milk production being sold as exports? Consider that Wisconsin, the nation's No. 2 dairy state, accounts for 13.5 percent of total production. Idaho and New York, which are No. 3 and No. 4, together account for 13.2 percent.
The combination of declining global dairy product supplies and recovering economies has pushed up prices that, combined with continued weakness of the dollar, U.S. dairy product quality, and delivery reliability, has resulted in great opportunity for American products. The U.S. is not the world's lowest cost supplier, but it doesn't need to be to find plenty of buyers.
As the U.S. continues to emerge as a top dairy product exporter – it probably passed Australia in 2010 to move into third place – dairies' perspective about who they are producing for needs to change, especially in the West. Today it is almost likely that dried milk products made in California or Washington are being used by customers in the Philippines or Indonesia.

A queue can be bound to an exchange in virtual host configuration file by providing an exchange name in element exchange within the queue configuration element having the same name as a queue. If exchange element is omitted in queue configuration then such queue is bound to a default exchange only. With configuration file it is only possible to bind queue to a single exchange.
An element routingKey is used to specify a custom binding key. It is an optional element, and, if it is not set then queue is bound to an exchange with a binding key equals to a queue name. Any number of binding keys can be configured.
Binding arguments can be set with each binding key. An element bindingArgument is used to specify a binding argument as a name-value pair separated with equal character. Any number of binding arguments can be provided for a binding key in their own bindingArgument elements. All of them should be contained within an element having the same name as a binding key.
The following example demonstrates how to bind queue testQueue to a default topic exchange using routing key testRoutingKey and binding arguments for message selector and no local.
Example 14.14. Queue Binding Example
<queue> <name>testQueue</name> <testQueue> <exchange>amq.topic</exchange> <routingKey>testRoutingKey</routingKey> <testRoutingKey> <bindingArgument>x-filter-jms-selector=application='app1'</bindingArgument> <bindingArgument>x-qpid-no-local=</bindingArgument> </testRoutingKey> </testQueue> </queue>

Do loyal customers really get treated better?
Whether it's through rewards programs or special invites, companies often tout an appreciation for customer loyalty.
Yet, every few months, I find myself challenging my Internet service provider over a "promotional offer" that has expired, which means I'm paying more than new customers.
It's become a pretty standard call, and with a little negotiating, I can usually get them to bring my bill back down. But recently, this made me wonder: Do loyal customers actually get treated better?
Customer loyalty undoubtedly has great value for companies. But what about consumers?
Do consumers actually benefit from staying with a company or institution for a long time? Is there any added benefit to your loyalty to a company, or will a business exert the same amount of effort on any customer?
I spoke to a few professionals and experts to find out.

CORINNA, Maine (NEWS CENTER) --- Each year many people like to take a walk through the massive corn maze at Thunder Road Farm. This year its stalks were cut down to shape a pretty special message.
Farm owners choose breast cancer awareness as this year's theme for the maze. They took months to plan a design for the field. Paths through it are shaped to form a breast cancer ribbon, the tree of life as well as the profile of a woman.
This year the farm teamed up with Eastern Maine Medical Center. It donated a day's worth of proceeds from the corn maze to cancer treatment programs at E.M.M.C. Farm owners say the impression the maze has left on some visitors has been the true reward.
"Breast cancer survivors showed up just to thank us for doing this," said Barbara Peavey, who is a third generation owner of the farm, "just to be small part of it...it's just great...it just warms your heart."
The corn maze will be open each weekend in Corinna through the first weekend in November from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The farm also offers hay rides and a bounce pit for kids.

The game preview I wrote for the UDub game was terrifically off with regard to the score but pretty darn accurate when it came to the key to the game; Washington's propensity for turnovers. The Huskies finished with 19. Washington State is about as un-Washington as a team can be. If there is a team in the Pac 12 that is similar to Wazzu, it's probably Utah. Wazzu like to slow things down somewhat, although not like the days when a Bennett roamed the sidelines. The Cougars have a big post who can pull his man out to the arc and solid, albeit not great players around him.
The "big post" is senior Brock Motum (6'10" 245 lbs.). Motum is the leading scorer and rebounder on the team (18.2 PPG/6.9 RPG) and he is, quite frankly, the only top-level player on the roster. That's not to say that there isn't some talent on Bone's roster, only that he's the only one with the experience and development. Motum's performance is down a bit this season, if you can call those numbers "down" mainly because teams are keying on him, especially with the preseason dismissal of guard Reggie Moore. He is averaging almost 3 turnovers per game and his shooting percentage is down, especially from distance. He is, though, shooting 34% from behind the arc. However, Motum is much better offensively than Arizona State's Jordan Bachynski and USC's Dwayne Demon. The Wear brothers and Tony Parker (what limited minutes he plays) will absolutely have their hands full with Motum.
The other "scorer" for the Cougars is senior guard Mike Ladd (6'5" 195 lbs.). Ladd is an adequate shooter and decent rebounder, grabbing 5.8 RPG. His 11.7 PPG come from a variety of shots, including 33% from the three-point line. Ladd's scoring would be up considerably if h were hitting more than 60% of his free throws. Ladd is also a pretty good defender, which he'll need to be as it looks like he'll be guarding UCLA's Shabazz Muhammad for much of the game.
UCLA's bane has been the opposition's point guard play. UDub's Abdul Gaddy had a middling game on Thursday night against Larry Drew II. Part of that was because Gaddy was inexplicably (because of what USC and ASU showed against Drew) putting ball pressure on Drew and refused to drive much against Drew at the other end of the floor. Wazzu's point guard Royce Woolridge (6'3" 175 lbs.), a Kansas transfer, may not be as highly publicized as Gaddy, as quick as ASU's Jahaii Carson or as experienced as USC's Jio Fontan, but he is capable. Woolridge isn't particularly quick and he isn't a great shot but you can bet that Bone will do a better job of allowing Woolridge to play off of Drew and have him using ball screens to go at Drew. The UCLA point guard has a tendency to go under screens, thus leaving a great deal of room for the point guard to operate around the perimeter. It also give the point guard a lot of room to take three-pointers.
Wazzu's best athlete is sophomore guard DaVonte Lacy (6'3" 206 lbs.). Lacy averages 9.7 PPG, but like Ladd would average more if his free throw percentage wasn't so mediocre. He also tends to get lazy, settling for cruising around the perimeter and not really getting involved inside. He averages only 2.6 RPG. That might be what the proverbial doctor ordered for UCLA's Jordan Adams to get out of his shooting slump. In all honesty, he shouldn't have to work terribly hard on defense against Lacy so he can concentrate more on the offensive end.
Junior post D.J. Shelton (6'10" 250 lbs.) rounds out the starting five. He isn't much of a scorer but he does rebound well, averaging 6.1 RPG and having double-digit rebounds in the game against USC. Luckily UCLA has just faced a Washington squad that went with two big posts, one athletic and the other a load to deal with around the basket. Don't be surprised if Howland decides to put Kyle Anderson on Motum and use the Wears and Parker against Shelton's bulk. It depends on who Howland has more faith in as a defender because the better post defender should be on Motum, even if that leaves Anderson physically at a disadvantage against Shelton.
Bone really has been shortening his bench, with three players averaging well over 30 MPG and Lacy being right around 30. The bench consists of junior Will DiIorio (6'5" 190 lbs.), sophomore Dexter Kernich-Drew (6'6" 182 lbs.) and freshman Richard "Junior" Longrus (6'7" 232 lbs.). None of the three are playing much but keep an eye on Kernich-Drew as he's hoisted 77 three-pointers this season. He's only hitting 30% (actually a shade below), but if he gets hot whatsoever it will open things up for Motum.
Washington State is dangerous because of the two-man game that Woolridge and Motum could potentially play. Motum, unlike ASU's Bachynski, USC's Dedmon and UDub's Aziz N'Daiye, has the ability to run the pick and roll and the pick and pop. The post defender on Motum will have to be very aware of the slip off the screen of the point guard and the quick pop off the screen for a three-point shot. If UCLA's does anything to try and alter Motum's game, he's a good enough passer to find open teammates. The danger is that UCLA could try and compensate against Motum thus leaving Woolridge free to get into the paint against Drew. If the Bruin senior requires help with regard to drives, then Wazzu will dish to open shooters in Ladd and Lacy, etc…and don't think that the Cougars will go a collective 2-19 from beyond the arc.
On the defensive end, expect Bone to vary from a man to a zone, but having whoever is guarding Drew drop to around the three-point line. Once again, it is going to be imperative for the UCLA point guard to hit a couple of outside shots to loosen things up. Since Bone has been in the Palouse, his teams have always seemed pretty susceptible to weakside screening and shooters. Muhammad and Adams (more Muhammad) have been really good at using double screens to get open as they run baseline coming back to the ball side of the floor. That's how both of them often get open looks from deep.
Speaking of Adams, he's the key right now for UCLA. His shooting has been terrible the past couple of weeks and he's even finding it harder to use his guile to get into the lane. For UCLA to operate more at its optimum in the half court, Adams has to rediscover even an average shooting percentage from the outside. Think about it; if Adams even hits for 10 points, five below his average, the Bruins beat Washington on Thursday fairly easily. The whole Bruin squad shot poorly on Thursday, which actually makes it three poor shooting games in a row for the Bruins.
Washington State lacks the kind of athleticism to exploit UCLA. That means that they have to be really efficient on offense and smart on defense. They may defend smartly but Wazzu's been bit by one of two bugaboos almost every game. The Cougars either keep their turnovers down but get beat on the boards, or they win the battle of the glass but turn the ball over exponentially. Either would suit Howland and the Bruins. Wazzu also isn't a very good shooting team, both from the field and from the charity stripe. That isn't a recipe for beating the Bruins. UCLA absolutely needs this win as it gets ready to travel to the Bay Area next weekend for the next set of critical games.
Washington State 60

In The Long Goodbye, Patti Davis describes losing her father to Alzheimer's disease, saying goodbye in stages, helpless against the onslaught of a disease that steals what is most precious—a person's memory. "Alzheimer's," she writes, "snips away at the threads, a slow unraveling, a steady retreat; as a witness all you can do is watch, cry, and whisper a soft stream of goodbyes."
She writes of needing to be reunited at forty-two with her mother, of regaining what they had spent decades demolishing. A truce was necessary to bring together a splintered family, a few weeks before her father released his letter telling the country and the world of his illness. The author delves into her memories to touch her father again, to hear his voice, to keep alive the years she had with him.
Moving and honest, an illuminating portrait of grief, of a great man, a disease, and a woman and her father.

TVTeka shows Eurosport. I'm just not sure which one.
TVTeka shows Eurosport. I'm just not sure which one.
I emphasise: DO NOT WATCH THE BRITISH EUROSPORT STREAM. YOU WILL NOT GET AS FULL A COVERAGE AS YOU WILL IF YOU WATCH THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE FEED OF EUROSPORT INTERNATIONAL!!!
Here is a link to the website I normally get my livestreams from. The English feed for Eurosport International 1 is normally the first "Eurosport" on the list, and the English feed for Eurosport International 2 is normally the first "Eurosport 2" on the list. But, if not, you can tell the difference from the logo when you go into the stream - International just has the normal Eurosport logo, while British Eurosport has the word "British" added above the "Euro".
I also looked up the TV schedule for the next few days on Россия-2 and Спорт-2, and was dismayed to find that neither of them are showing any Nebelhorn coverage.
These channels normally show the major figure skating competitions in their entirety, so it was a surprise that they are not showing the Nebelhorn. Especially since it is a qualifying event for an Olympics that is being held in their country!
More worrying, I also looked through the schedules for a number of RAI channels (RAI 1, RAI 2, RAI Sport 1, RAI Sport 2), and it looks like they are not showing the Nebelhorn either. The worrying thing is that this means we will probably not be getting any videos from La Riserva.
So, does anybody know of anywhere else that may be broadcasting the full competitions and, more importantly, where we can find a live stream for it?
I for one really want to see the first couple of groups of the Ladies SP, in particular Miki Ando in group 1 (PLEASE DO WELL!!!), and Clara Peters in group 2 (hey, were from the same island!)
Thanks for the Eurosport tipoff! Can't wait to see Brooklee, Brendan, and Danielle and Greg! (Oh, and Jason!)
But, you're fortunate that Brooklee is in the penultimate group. So if no earlier broadcasts over-run and we join the skating on time, we should see her.
As for the Short Dance, we should be joining it in the middle of group 3. So, again, you'll see Danielle and Greg, who are in the final group. But, I hope they do go live straightaway and don't show highlights from earlier in the day to fill time until group 4 starts. Because I really want to see Ksenia Monko and Kiril Khaliavin (last in group 3)!!!
When Eurosport International's coverage of the Nebelhorn is on air, I will be watching it because of their brilliant commentary. But, of course, I still want to know if there are any livestreams of the entire competitions, so that I can watch that are on ice before Eurosport comes on air!
Tad jerky on my computer but I'm sure it'll come good. Thanks!
ISU stream of Pairs is on this link:
And it's not jerky like the last one!!!! (it wasn't just your computer, karne!)
ISU stream of Short Dance is on this link:
Look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctR1FcY2-RA Ilove their chemistry and I like this SP. However it's not very innovative.

Considering the Kings scoring woes are still intact (2.5 GPG this post-season,) they're desperately going to need to find their scoring touch against the likes of Elliott and the Blues.
Phoenix/Nashville is an utter crap shoot. They both like to strangle opposing offenses. That series will like be determined who can score first.

Hate it or not, a PHX NAS/ anyone and FLA conference finals would really stabilize the game and raise revenues.
However, f*** Bettman and his business plans. I hope it is the worst money maker possible.
I also hope Nashville loses the next round. Their fans are classless.
Tootoo does NOT belong on this team. He is classless and I would rather see the Wings be bad than classless. I feel the same way about Bertuzzi as well, but he at least CAN make the team better. With Tootoo the team becomes worse and in danger of being classless. Would you have liked Claude on the team? Or Roy? No. So why would you be okay with that POS.

Tomas Kopecky winning a cup every other year with three different teams is enough to assure me that the world is going to end very soon and I will not have to pay off my credit cards.
Plus Sammy is there, so that's 2 men from my past who could win it.
If not the Panthers, I'm quite cool with the Kings or Sens, although I might have to flip a coin to choose between them if needed.
RIP MicMichSteve. I was fortunate to have called you my friend.

1. Preds (was hoping I could cheer for them this year but then we played them round 1), their fans, Trotz, owners, etc all deserve it IMO
2. Sens, my 2nd favourite team
2. Flyers, always been one of my favourite teams and they're playing the Pens
2. Kings, screw the Canucks
2. Coyotes, their fans deserve it and also down with the Blackhawks
6. Capitals because screw Boston
7. Panthers
8. Blues, new blood in the West.. but really don't care about this series either way
Posted 21 April 2012 - 01:49 PM
first of all; I hope Flyers knock the Penguins out of the playoffs. Then; Go KINGS!
Yup, pretty much that right there.
I suppose St. Louis going deep (or dare I say, the finals?) would be positive for my region in KC. The cup being won in Missouri could spark interest in finally pursuing a team >.>
Otherwise, my CHL team is still in the thick of the playoffs and they have my full attention until they're done.

The Emmy-nominated Big Bang Theory actress, 36, sustained serious damage to her right hand after the crash, but according to a new entry on Kveller.com, Bialik feels all better – sometimes.
In the short post, titled "Mayim's Cat to the Rescue," she writes, "This is what makes me forget my pain: My cat Esau sticking his tongue out at me."
Esau is a 9-year-old peterbald cat that Bialik considers another son, so it's no wonder he has such a powerful effect on her.
"He is part baby, part monkey and part cat," she told PEOPLE last year. "He will jump from the ground into your arms. He's very affectionate."
