Few life-forms can survive on the ice planet Hoth. Between its subzero surface temperatures, sheering winds and frequent whiteouts, the environment should be considered extremely hostile even to properly outfitted individuals; mechanical equipment and communications technology are prone to freeze and malfunction as well, making any minor setback potentially lethal.
During the war between Republic and Empire, the Hoth system was the site of a major fleet battle. This resulted in a large number of starships falling into Hoth's gravity well and crashing on the planet surface. These derelict ships have become the base of operations for a large group of pirates, as well as a center of dispute between Republic and Imperial forces.

South Africa certainly has been a happy hunting ground for Scotland's golfers in recent years and Paul Shields took a step towards capturing another notable prize last night as he secured a place in the final of the Northern Amateur Open in Johannesburg.
The 21-year-old from Kirkhill overcame his fellow Glaswegian, Fraser McKenna, of Balmore, at the 22nd hole of a keenly fought tussle to set up a 36-hole showdown with Aubrey Barnard.
A fortnight ago, Fife's Brian Soutar kept the South African Open crown in Scottish hands. Now, Shields has the opportunity to make it a double as he tries to emulate David Law's Northern Amateur win of 2011. Add Richie Ramsay's success in the European Tour's South African Open at the end of 2009, and the pots of gold in this Rainbow Nation are taking on an increasingly tartan tinge.

Shields has plenty of matchplay pedigree but he has yet to make that step on to the winner's podium. He was runner-up in the Scottish Boys' Championship in both 2008 and 2009 while he was beaten to the South African Amateur title last year by Troon's Michael Stewart.
His determination to rid himself of that nearly man tag was in evidence yesterday with two battling victories. Shields fought back from two down with two to play in his quarter-final with Shaun Smith before winning at the 21st and then saw off the spirited challenge of McKenna at the fourth extra hole to seal a final berth.
McKenna, runner-up in the British Boys' Championship in 2008, had underlined his qualities with a one-hole win over South Africa's No 1, Brandon Stone, in the last eight but his glory bid was thwarted by Shields in the sudden-death shoot-out during the afternoon's semis.

The design is jaw-dropping, with such smooth, clean lines, and it drives like a dream. Our customers are already coming in to check out this amazing redesign, and those who have driven it have been even more excited.
Ramsey, NJ (PRWEB) September 27, 2013
The team at Prestige Toyota is excited to deliver the next generation of the world's top selling compact sedan to customers. The all-new, redesigned Corolla, which has received much attention and acclaim all over the world, is now available at Prestige and Toyota dealerships across the country.
The first glimpse of the newly designed car came in the form of the Toyota Corolla Furia concept, which was introduced at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show by Bill Fay, general manager of the Toyota Division. The automotive media raved about the potential fresh look of the car at the time, and the buzz has continued. The wind-tunnel-tested exterior design, standard LED headlights, gated shifter, sporty interior, and the latest, most innovative safety and interactive technology from Toyota make the 2014 Corolla an historic new model in the lineup.
"After all of the debuts and announcements about the new Corolla, we are elated to actually see this incredible vehicle in our showroom," said Steve Reedy, general sales manager at Prestige Toyota. "The design is jaw-dropping, with such smooth, clean lines, and it drives like a dream. Our customers are already coming in to check out this amazing redesign, and those who have driven it have been even more excited."
Toyota has also added a new model to the Corolla family, the LE Eco. The engine in the Corolla LE Eco features Valvematic tehnology that delivers slightly more horsepower (140 vs. 132) and 5 more mpg on the highway (42 vs. 37) than the other new Corolla models. All 2014 Corolla models offer improved fuel efficiency over the previous model year, made possible by their lighter bodyweight and aerodynamic styling.
Customers interested in test driving the latest Corolla or any of the other Toyota models should contact a member of Prestige's knowledgeable staff at (888) 356-2136 or visit http://prestigetoyota.com. For a limited time, customers can also find Toyota specials on remaining 2013 Corollas from Prestige, including a Corolla lease for just $139/month for 46 months with $1,999 due at signing.

Thanks so much for opening yourself up for this onslaught.
I'm a paramedic, which means I work a 24 hours shift. I have been using MyFitnessPal, for about 2 years. I have a base 1974 calorie goal for the day, plus what ever I "earn" from working out. I try to get as close back to 0 as possible, so I am fueled for the next day. I drink 8oz of Vit D milk with Ovaltine after any run over 6 miles. I have to vary the times of my workouts around work, and family. So I may get a 2 mile run in before work at 5am, or 2 pm on the day off while the kids are napping, or worse yet, 10pm once everyone is asleep.
My question is, what are your views on post run, refueling. I have a hard time being 100% sure of how long of a run I will actually be able to get in that day. I have used a protein powder/shake, but then I was told I was doing it all wrong, and not drink that.
I know everyone has an opinion on this, and everyone contradicts every other one.
What insights do you have for refueling/rebuilding.

The Business Plot: Is Wall Street Still Trying to Overthrow FDR?
In November 1934, Butler alleged the existence of a political conspiracy of Wall Street interests to overthrow President Roosevelt, a series of allegations that came to be known in the media as the Business Plot.[56][57] A special committee of the House of Representatives headed by Representatives John W. McCormack of Massachusetts and Samuel Dickstein of New York, who was later alleged to have been a paid agent of the NKVD,[58] heard his testimony in secret.[59] The McCormack-Dickstein committee was a precursor to the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
In November 1934, Butler told the committee that one Gerald P. MacGuire told him that a group of businessmen, supposedly backed by a private army of 500,000 ex-soldiers and others, intended to establish a fascist dictatorship. Butler had been asked to lead it, he said, by MacGuire, who was a bond salesman with Grayson MP Murphy & Co. The New York Times reported that Butler had told friends that General Hugh S. Johnson, a former official with the National Recovery Administration, was to be installed as dictator. Butler said MacGuire had told him the attempted coup was backed by three million dollars, and that the 500,000 men were probably to be assembled in Washington, D.C. the following year. All the parties alleged to be involved, including Johnson, publicly said there was no truth in the story, calling it a joke and a fantasy.[59]
In its report, the committee stated that it was unable to confirm Butler's statements other than the conversations with MacGuire.[60] No prosecutions or further investigations followed, and historians have questioned whether or not a coup was actually contemplated. Historians have not reported any independent evidence apart from Butler's report on what MacGuire told him. Schmidt says Maguire was an "inconsequential trickster."[61][62][63][64] The news media dismissed the plot, with a New York Times editorial characterizing it as a "gigantic hoax".[65] When the committee's final report was released, the Times said the committee "purported to report that a two-month investigation had convinced it that General Butler's story of a Fascist march on Washington was alarmingly true" and "... also alleged that definite proof had been found that the much publicized Fascist march on Washington, which was to have been led by Major. Gen. Smedley D. Butler, retired, according to testimony at a hearing, was actually contemplated".[66]
The McCormack-Dickstein Committee confirmed some of Butler's accusations in its final report. "In the last few weeks of the committee's official life it received evidence showing that certain persons had made an attempt to establish a fascist organization in this country...There is no question that these attempts were discussed, were planned, and might have been placed in execution when and if the financial backers deemed it expedient.

Tarryn Thomas, Future Football Star
The story of the project
Now, he's been selected to represent Australia in the 2015 School Sport Australia 15 years and under all Australian Team which is travelling to South Africa in January 2016.
The tour is part of School Sport Australia's international sports program.
Tarryn is a proud pakana lad whose family originates from Cape Barren Island. He is a future leader and an inspiration for all children and young people who strive to achieve a better outcome in their chosen field. Tarryn's achievements come with hard work and discipline but knows he has a hard road ahead.
For more information about Tarryn, please see the following link:http://www.examiner.com.au/story/3258081/thomas-fo…
What are we asking for?
The total cost of the tour to Johannesburg is in the vicinity of $7000. Tarryn's family is not in a position to pay this amount and we are therefore seeking financial support from a range of different organisations.
The first deadline is 28 August 2015, by which time Tarryn must have paid a $2000 deposit, with a further $2000 being required by 28 September 2015. We hope to meet the first deadline through funding requests of local businesses.
But the remaining money, we'd like to raise through Pozible.
Thank you in advance for your generosity.

"We, at the height, are ready to decline.
There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat,
And we must take the current when it serves,
Or lose our ventures."

Ashara Ekundayo knows full well that there's more to people of African descent than what's on view at the typical multiplex. "If the only thing you see of yourself is what Hollywood wants to sell you," says Ekundayo, who founded the Starz Denver Pan African Film Festival, "you don't get to see anything outside of stereotypical images."
The more than fifty flicks that can be seen in the festival's fourth edition -- April 21 through 27 -- often leave those cliches in tatters. That doesn't mean they lack entertainment value, though. The portion of the bash that's open to the general public takes place at the Starz FilmCenter, inside the Tivoli Student Union on the Auraria campus; the kickoff is the April 24 screening of Only the Strong Survive. The film, co-directed by Chris Hegedus and rock-doc pioneer D.A. Pennebaker, celebrates the work of classic soul singers via performance and interview footage that features the likes of Jerry Butler, Mary Wilson of the Supremes, Isaac Hayes and Carla Thomas. Music crops up in subsequent films, too, including Hip Hop Hope, directed by Darrell Wilks, about New York emcees responding creatively to 9/11; Big Pun: Still Not a Player, which focuses upon an oversized rap talent who died of a heart attack in 2000; and Amandla! A Revolution in Four-Part Harmony, a look at the life and work of South African composer/activist Vuyisile Mini that closes the proceedings.
Still, the centerpiece of the festival, a joint project of the Pan African Arts Society and the Denver Film Society, is the April 26 tribute to filmmaker Stanley Nelson; it will be highlighted by a viewing of his latest effort, The Murder of Emmett Till. Ekundayo also touts the rough cut of NO!, a work in progress by director Aishah Shahidah Simmons that challenges African-Americans who ignore the problem of sexual abuse to face it head on. "There's this collective silence in the black community around when men rape women," Ekundayo says. "Aishah has had people tell her, 'We can't air this dirty laundry.' She's had to fight with African-American folk to finish this film."
The 4th Starz Denver Pan African Film Festival
April 21-27
Starz FilmCenter at the Tivoli

It's been a long struggle. Simmons unveiled a twenty-minute chunk of NO! five years ago as part of 1998's International Women's Film Festival, a Denver-based showcase staged in part by Ekundayo; the success of that event, which featured a guest appearance by Maya Angelou, helped inspire the launch of the Denver Pan African Film Festival two years later. The fest has earmarked a share of proceeds from both an April 26 screening of NO! and an April 27 panel discussion about rape, at which the film will also be seen, for Simmons to help defray post-production costs.
Getting others involved with similar causes is among Ekundayo's primary goals. She calls the Pan African Arts Society, in which she serves as executive director and curator, an "art-and-social-change institution" that reaches out via ventures such as Cafe Nuba, a multimedia hip-hop and poetry gathering that takes place monthly at Gemini Tea Emporium, 2680 Welton Street. She thinks the Denver Pan African Film Festival is another avenue for introducing people of all ages to new ways of thinking.
"We are into promoting urban art and using it to teach," Ekundayo says. "And we know we have access to an audience that can appreciate -- and learn from -- these films."

40Th Birthday/first Marathon Cake For Man
This was a labor...emphasis on labor...of love for my daughter's friend's husband who was turning 40 on the day he ran his first marathon...the Route 66 marathon in Tulsa. The assignment was to celebrate his running and all the aspects of his life. So I came up with a spiral cake (my first) that showed a road and along the road were signposts depicting points in his life along the way. Lots of gum paste and fondant signage including the logo at the top. My first time making a figure like this. Good thing the logo was big enough to hide the bottom portion of it! He was floored. It was a surprise from his wife and he enjoyed going through his life in gum paste and cake! The spiral cake is surprisingly easy to do and I covered it in buttercream...including the road. Bottom cake is chocolate with ganache filling and top is French Vanilla with raspberry.

High rollers on a roll at jersey casino
Cha-ching, cha-ching. Just weeks after a blackjack player beat the Tropicana Casino and Resort in Atlantic City for $5.8 million, a different gambler won $5.3 million last week playing craps, blackjack and mini-baccarat. That's $11 million, right? So far, Tropicana's new emphasis on high-stakes table games play is not quite going its way. But the boss isn't panicking. "That's just how it goes sometimes; if you bet more, you can win more," said Tony Rodio, the Tropicana's president and CEO. "We have a strategy of offering the most aggressive and highest table games limits in the Atlantic City market and we're not going to change that. If someone wants to take the shot, we'll take the action." But lately, it's the Tropicana that has been getting taken.
Germans? Not so much
Those Americans, what funny people
Hahahaha. Hahahaha. Oh, we Americans are so funny. Hahahaha. We are so funny, it seems, that other nations think we're the funniest nationality on the planet. About 30,000 people across 15 countries were asked to name both the "funniest" and "least funny" nationality in a poll conducted by Badoo.com, a social networking website based in London. The Spanish were second and the Italians third. The Germans won the least funny category, ahead of the Russians and Turks.
With nothing to lose, he sails on
An Irishman rowing across the Indian Ocean hit his head in rough seas and needed rescuing off Australia on Tuesday. Keith Whelan, who was picked up by a cargo ship after making a phone call for help, is all right and can sail again, police in Perth said. Whelan, 29, has rowed 370 miles as he tries to become the youngest man to row from Australia to Mauritius, off Africa. He added a twist: He wasn't wearing clothes.
From cave to tv
Saying farewell to a shaggy star
He toured the country, commanding $16,000 for appearances and getting the star treatment wherever he went. New Zealanders couldn't get enough of him. Now they're mourning the country's most famous sheep, Shrek, who was euthanized Monday at age 17 after becoming sick. Shrek captured the public's imagination in 2004 after he evaded the annual shearing roundups for the previous seven years by hiding in caves on his farm on the South Island. When finally found, he was clad in an astonishing 60 pounds of wool. After his capture, Shrek was shorn on live TV. And his fame only grew.

Can the laser radiation go through your eyelids? Are some wavelengths or types of lasers safer than others?
Is It Possible for a Hair Removal Laser to Damage Your Eyes if They Are Shut?
Doctor Answers 2
Lasers can cause damage to eyes
Lasers can cause reversible and irreversible damage to your eyes. The patient and the Practitioner should have protective eye wear on. Additionally, the laser should not be placed too close to the eyes. While you may see a light beam through your eye wear and with your eyes closed, you should be protected from harmful effects.
Damage to eyes from laser hair removal
With your eyes closed it is very unlikely that a hair removal laser will penetrate deeply enough to cause damage to your eyes. However, any possibility of damage to your eyes is prevented by wearing protective glasses. Lasers work by creating a beam of highly concentrated light that penetrates deep into the skin where it delivers a controlled amount of therapeutic heat. This light energy is absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicles. They pretty much all have the same risks and must be used carefully, even the supposedly "safe" at home devices.

Qatar denies wrongdoing over Warner
Qatar's 2022 World Cup organising committee has told the Daily Telegraph it "strictly adhered to FIFA's bidding regulations" after the newspaper published a report claiming the FBI was investigating payments made to the governing body's former vice-president Jack Warner.
The Telegraph reported that documents have emerged appearing to show that a company owned by Qatari former FIFA Executive Committee member Mohamed Bin Hammam had paid Warner $1.2 million in 2011, shortly after the Gulf state won the vote to stage the 2022 tournament.
The newspaper said further payments totalling close to $750,000 were shown to have been made to Warner's sons and an additional $400,000 went to one of his employees and adds: "It is understood that the FBI is now investigating Trinidad-based Mr Warner and his alleged links to the Qatari bid, and that the former FIFA official's eldest son, who lives in Miami, has been helping the inquiry as a co-operating witness."
Qatar denies any wrongdoing, and a spokesman for the World Cup organising committee told the Telegraph: "The 2022 bid committee strictly adhered to FIFA's bidding regulations in compliance with their code of ethics. The supreme committee for delivery and legacy and the individuals involved in the 2022 bid committee are unaware of any allegations surrounding business dealings between private individuals."
Warner, who served as vice-president for 14 years, and Bin Hammam, who had contested the last FIFA presidential election, both left the governing body in 2011 after being suspended by the Ethics Committee following a corruption scandal.
Warner denies any wrongdoing.
"I have no interest in joining in the foolishness that is now passing as news on Qatar and Jack Warner," he said in a statement. "Nor do I intend to join those who are on a witch hunt against the World Cup 2022 venue. And do consider this as my final comment on this matter."
The decision to award the 2022 World Cup to Qatar has caused significant problems amid concerns over summer temperatures in the Gulf state and the difficulties of moving it to the winter, while there have been protests over alleged abuse of migrant workers working on sites for the tournament.
Germany's Die Welt am Sonntag recently quoted an unnamed FIFA employee as saying the World Cup could be reassigned to another country amid those controversies. The report also cited the potential impact of a report into corruption in the voting process, which is apparently due to be released this year. However, FIFA president Sepp Blatter later told Sport Bild that the tournament would not be moved.
There have been longstanding allegations over impropriety in the vote, with FIFA ExCo member Reynald Temarii having been filmed by London's Sunday Times newspaper saying he wanted $2.3 million to fund a soccer academy in New Zealand in the months prior to the decision. The Times later submitted evidence to politicians claiming two other ExCo members had been paid $1.5 million to vote for Qatar, and former Football Association chairman Lord Triesman accused another four of requesting gifts in return for their support for England's bid to host the 2018 tournament.

While plenty of high-yield opportunities exist, investors must always consider the safety of their dividend and the total return potential of their investment. It is not uncommon for a struggling company to suspend high-yielding dividends and subsequently result in precipitous share price declines.
TheStreet Ratings' stock rating model views dividends favorably, but not so much that other factors are disregarded. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits?; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance.
These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel — rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
The following pages contain our analysis of 4 stocks with substantial yields, that ultimately, we have rated "Buy."
Sabine RoyaltyDividend Yield: 7.20% Sabine Royalty (NYSE: SBR) shares currently have a dividend yield of 7.20%. Sabine Royalty Trust holds royalty and mineral interests in various oil and gas properties in the United States. The company has a P/E ratio of 14.69. The average volume for Sabine Royalty has been 14,400 shares per day over the past 30 days. Sabine Royalty has a market cap of $756.1 million and is part of the financial services industry. Shares are up 30.3% year to date as of the close of trading on Thursday. TheStreet Ratings rates Sabine Royalty as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, notable return on equity and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had somewhat weak growth in earnings per share. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- SBR has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. Along with this, the company maintains a quick ratio of 12.65, which clearly demonstrates the ability to cover short-term cash needs.
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market, SABINE ROYALTY TRUST's return on equity significantly exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- The gross profit margin for SABINE ROYALTY TRUST is currently very high, coming in at 100.00%. SBR has managed to maintain the strong profit margin since the same quarter of last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, SBR's net profit margin of 94.80% significantly outperformed against the industry.
- SBR, with its decline in revenue, slightly underperformed the industry average of 6.5%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 8.3%. The declining revenue appears to have seeped down to the company's bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- The change in net income from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry average, but is less than that of the S&P 500. The net income has decreased by 8.1% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, dropping from $14.30 million to $13.14 million.

Dr. Seuss characters include a cat in "The Cat in the Hat," an elephant named Horton in "Horton Hears a Who," a grinch in "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas," and a boy named Bartholomew Cubbins in "The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins." American author Theodore Geisel wrote more than 40 children's books under the name Dr. Seuss.Continue Reading
The mischievous cat in "The Cat in the Hat" causes chaos when he arrives at the home of two children with his companions Thing One and Thing Two. In "Horton Hears a Who," Horton the elephant discovers a microscopic world on a small speck of dust. Horton made his first appearance in another Dr. Seuss book, "Horton Hatches the Egg."
The Grinch in "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas" is a mean green creature who impersonates Santa Claus to try to ruin Christmas but ends up discovering he has a heart after all. The story inspired a television special in 1966 and a feature film in 2000.
In "The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins," the title character is a poor boy in the kingdom of Didd who tries to follow the law and remove his hat when the king rides past him in the market. Each time he removes it, another more extravagant hat appears. The boy also appears in the sequel, "Bartholomew and the Oobleck."Learn more about Children's Books

I agree with your general hypothesis regarding the identification of a trap game but the numbers don't support it for this game. Pretty well everywhere I'm looking the Packers are slightly more popular than the Bears. The consensus on this site is 51% Packers, hardly the numbers you'd expect for a trap line....
Green Bay's offense has yet to hit its stride even going back to the preseason, and with the Bears appearing to now have the firepower necessary to go toe-to-toe with the league's top scoring teams, the time is clearly now for Rodgers and company to step it up and reach their usual standards of excellence. Fortunately for the Packers, they know full well what they'll be getting from out of a Chicago defense that isn't fancy, or as formidable as the take-no-prisoners San Francisco outfit that stymied Green Bay last week. Marshall and Forte will be hard to handle for a Packers stop unit that's still somewhat of a work in progress, but odds are Rodgers will come closer to showcasing his MVP form against a familiar opponent. He's also the less likely of these two quarterbacks to commit a pivotal turnover that could loom large to the outcome of what should be a close and exciting contest. 2 units OVER 51-
"PACKERS -5 MAX UNIT PLAY ***POD*** (15 units)
Man do I love this matchup. Speed and power on both sides of the ball with SF having the best defense in the league last year. too bad they got a beast of a team to deal with for their first game and on the road. Rodgers is the best QB in the league IMO. Better than Brady Brees and both the Manning's. His ability to read defenses and execute his offense is superb. They will be ready and poised for another great season and a run at the post season once again. I dont really even see this game being close to be honest. GB by 10+"
So you thought Packers would beat 49ers by 10+ and Rodgers would be ready for another post season run. But now you think they will lose to bears?
I guess you didn't learn anything from last week with your "trap line theory or reading lines" you pounded titans +4.5 knowing patriots would stomp there heads in, but since the line seemed fishy, you took titans.........
Line is now Bears +5.

The food was acceptable, but for a more authentic Mao experience they should slaughter tens of millions of Chinese people during the meal.Also, in keeping with Mao's beliefs about capitalism, tipping should result in being sent to a "re-education camp" where patrons will survive for weeks on a single handful of rice.
The food was terrible. It was greasy, yet tasteless as if they were trying to appeal to Americans. Did I mention that the restaurant honors, with its name, a horrific, mass murdering dictator? As if the food wasn't reason enough not to go here, they make it easy by naming the establishment for a brutal communist. I do have a positive comment, however. It's better to be at this restaurant than in one of Mao's prison camps.
I been here a few times (more accurately dragged by a friend who appreciates the large smoking section). The food is adequate but no more than that and tends to be rather oily. Fishcakes are fried spongey balls of homogenised material (unidentifiable). The staff are of the aspiring actor variety but are unfortunately not able to act the part of waiters very convincingly. The floor manager I have encountered is an officious busybody who I saw sending a waiter upstairs after somebody she thought might be going to the bathroom - " he didn't eat here! Stop him!". She will make you wait 15 minutes for a table on principle because,you know, Mao is a happening place and you can't expect to just swan in and sit down at once. Why give them the money when the cafe a few doors down has lovely food and genuinely charming staff? Another thing: who chose the name? Was it a toss-up between that and Pol Pot?
Cafe Mao's eclectic mix of Thai, Indonesian and other oriental cuisines is exciting and considering Asian is the cuisine du jour - surprisingly affordable. It is possible for two people to have a three-course meal in the evening with a bottle of wine (or a couple of oriental beers) and still have change from £50. For those of us without expense accounts or limitless disposable incomes this is the restaurant to go to. Judging by the queues on weekend nights (Mao does not accept reservations), many people know this already. The decor is trendily minimalist and the staff are efficient and friendly. I would recommend the Chilli Squid (£5.75) as a starter. The squid was pleasantly chewy in a light, non-greasy batter accompanied by a chilli oil dip. My favourite main course at Cafe Mao is Nasi Goreng (£7.95) - an Indonesian fried rice dish with chicken satay, shrimps, fried egg and cabbage. You might expect this dish to be bland but the chilli paste (which is conveniently left on the side so you can make the dish as hot as you dare) add zest. All dishes have a chilli guide so you can only blame yourself if whatever you ordered is too spicy for your taste. The Thai Chicken Curry (£8.95) is a subtly flavoured dish, ideal for awkward partners with unadventurous taste buds. This will cause even the most stubborn steak-and-chips man to revise his opinion of 'foreign grub'. With our meal we had a few Kirin beers, which really complemented the food. Strangely enough, considering his obstinate resistance to any food he did not like as a child, Ronan never objects to sampling foreign beers! After the palate-warming starter and entree Mao's selection of ice cream (£3.25) as he succinctly observed, 'really hit the spot'. Dublin needs more restaurants like Cafe Mao - reasonably priced with a lively ambience and unpretentious food.
~ ~ The Café Mao is situated on Chatham Street, just of the top of Grafton Street, the main shopping area in Dublin City. The basic concept of Café Mao is very simple. It takes the best from all the different types of Asian and Far Eastern food, and combines them all in its own unique way. So here you can eat Thai food for your starter, Chinese food for your main course, and end up with a Japanese speciality or a tasty European dish for your dessert. ~ ~ Don't expect any fancy décor if you visit this eatery. At best, the furnishings could be described as minimalist, with huge canvas reproductions of Andy Warhol's famous image of Chairman Mao decorating the walls, and an open-plan kitchen dominating on the ground floor. I actually like this, as you can see that their hygiene is good, and that nothing untoward is going on in the food preparation. There is also a very large upstairs room, again furnished very sparsely, but without the cosy feeling that the open kitchen gives the downstairs room. At lunchtimes, when it tends not to be so busy, most people try to avoid the upstairs like the plague, as it feels for all the world like you are sitting in an empty airport hangar. It's not so bad in the evening though, when some subtle lighting, and a surfeit of people, serve to make it more hospitable. ~ ~ The main reason people flock to this restaurant is not for the décor however, but for the delicious and nutritious food that is all freshly prepared on the premises, and cooked strictly to order. Fish is a bit of a house speciality, and the chilli squid (octopus) fried in batter, and then served with a chilli and garlic dip, is one of my own particular favourites. If you want a soup, then the black bean soup with chilli is very tasty, and will leave you plenty of room for your main course. A lot of the dishes do seem to come with a flavouring of chilli, but don't let this put you off, as it
isn't too hot, and actually quite subtle in taste in most of the dishes. ~ ~ Other favourites of mine are the Thai crab cakes with a chilli sauce dip, and served with a red onion and cucumber salad. If you prefer something more meaty, then you can have a simple chicken char sui with rice, or some of their delicious roast duck with ramen noodles and bak choi. The Thai Green Vegetable Curry, a spicy creamy dish with a hint of coconut and served with jasmine rice, is very good for those of you with a taste for something a bit hot and spicier. ~ ~ The wine list is fairly small, but not being a drinker myself this doesn't worry me too much, although I'm told that their house wine at £10.95 a bottle is very palatable, and good value for money. With the food being of the spicy variety, a lot of customers prefer to drink a chilled beer, and Mao stock some of Asia's finest, such as Sapporo, Tsing Tao and Kingfisher. ~ ~ The service is quick and sharp, but without being too much in-your-face, and the background music is pleasant and not over loud, which allows you to have a pleasant conversation without having to shout to be heard as in some restaurants. ~ ~ The Café Mao have only recently opened a second restaurant out in Dun Loghaire, in the Dublin suburbs, which is where the boat from Holyhead in Wales docks. So business looks as though its on the up and up. ~ ~ This place wont break the bank either, and the average price of a meal (excluding wine) is in the £15 to £20 bracket. (Irish Punts. Minus approx 20% for Sterling) Why not visit the "Chairman" next time you find yourself in the "Fair City".

Never mind expensive surgery, the first step to a more youthful appearance is a
happy face. A study carried out by leading anti-ageing skincare brand, NIVEA
Q10plus, revealed that the simple act of smiling takes an average of two years off a
person's age.
The study asked 2,000 people to estimate the age of 12 females in photographs
showing three distinct emotion states - happy, neutral and sad. It found that emotion
had a significant effect on age estimations with happy faces perceived as younger
than neutral, and neutral faces younger than sad.
Louisa Jewell, President of the Canadian Positive Psychology Association explains: "In general, we perceive smiling faces as more attractive and we therefore tend to judge them as younger than they actually are. Studies show that facial expressions can have a significant impact on the accuracy of age estimation. People with smiling faces also appear more sincere, sociable, likeable, and competent."
The relationship between emotion state and perceived age
The research found that happy faces were estimated to be an average of just over a
year younger looking than the sad faces, and almost six months younger than the
neutral expressions. Furthermore, when comparing the estimated age of the happy
faces with the women's actual age, it revealed that a smiley face took an average of
just under two and a quarter years off a person's age. Sad expressions however put
around a year on people.
Study participants were also asked to give a rating of the perceived emotional state
of the women's faces, on a nine-point scale from 'happy' to 'sad'. The findings
revealed a significant inverse correlational relationship between age estimations and
happiness ratings, meaning that the higher participants rated people's happiness, the
lower the estimated age.
The benefits of smiling
"Helping you look younger is a great benefit of smiling and there are many more benefits of happiness." commented Jewell. "Studies show that happier people live longer, have better cardiovascular health and achieve greater success in life. Happier people even have stronger immune systems and are more resilient over their lifetime."
"Emotions are contagious so when we smile, we affect the moods of others around us in a positive way, making them feel more connected to us. This is important because social connectedness is known to be the most important contributing factor to happiness and well-being. Smiling can also improve your self-confidence by improving your mood. When we are in a positive mood we feel more confident which can help us achieve more in life." Jewell explains.
Q10 and youthfulness
Dr Sven Fey, Head of Product Development for Face Care at NIVEA commented:
"While smiling can help you look younger, unfortunately you can't totally prevent
wrinkles. Scientists at NIVEA were among the first to explore skin formulas
containing one of skin's own natural anti-ageing ingredients – energy coenzyme Q10.
As we age, the level of Q10 in the skin decreases, leaving the skin cells with less
energy that contributes to sagging skin and wrinkles. Complementing the skin with
Q10 gives you that extra hand to help preserve younger-looking skin for longer
while you enjoy laughing off the years doing what you love."

text: Technical outlook • EUR/USD falls, as weekend's G8 meeting left Germany and its strict stance on cutting debt first looking isolated as the tide turns on boosting growth. Whilst many watched with baited breath the G8 Summit has produced no exciting headlines and has turned out to be rather anticlimactic. While it is not a real surprise, the deterioration of the Euro zone debt crisis appears not to have disturbed the calmness surrounding these meetings, which continue to show an alarming lack of urgency surrounding the Euro-zone situation. This week on Wednesday EU Leaders will meet and Germany will take centre-stage as the country is expected to be asked to slightly ease austerity around peripheral economies in Europe, and rethink its strategy around the notion of 'growth'. Technical outlook • USD/CAD The Canadian dollar continued retreating against the soaring greenback, as European fears helped the USD and pushed oil prices lower. Retail sales are the highlight of this week. Canadian manufacturing sales soared in March amid an unexpected 1.9% boost in sales following a 0.2% contraction in February pulling the economy back on a growth track. This rebound came amid a rise in petroleum and coal products. With a strong labor market and a recovering manufacturing sector Canada has a lot to look forward to. Technical outlook • AUD/USD The Australian dollar continues to tumble, and has now dropped almost 6 six cents in the month of May. For anyone who loves extreme volatility in the markets, there's no need to look elsewhere. Given the turbulence an uncertainty in Europe, investors will be favoring safe haven currencies, which spells more trouble for the free-falling aussie.

Record of One Branch of the Newcomer Family and Genealogical History
James K. Newcomer(Great Grand Son of Ulrich Neukommer)
Urbana, Ohio
(Electronic facsimile reprint, A.D. 2000, by J. William Newcomer, Ada, Michigan)
As a young boy growing up on our Southern Michigan farm, I would rummage through the desk in our dining room, and there find "the little black book". In this little black book I read of Ulrich Neukommer and his family. I learned about Jacob Newcomer and his two brothers moving from York County, in the eastern part of Pennsylvania, to Fayette County in the far western part of that same State. Here were the outlines of how my Great-Great-Grandfather John Newcomer ended up settling in Fulton County, Ohio, on land that is now part of the city of Wauseon. In this "little black book", published by my Great-Great-Uncle James in 1882, was the story of my Newcomer roots. It is a pleasure to now share that story, as told by Uncle James, with you.
James K. Newcomer was my great grandfather, George D. Newcomer's older brother. It was probably from George that the book was handed down to my grandfather, Guy V. Newcomer, and from him to my father, Rex Newcomer. The work is in the public domain, and as this is a facsimile reprint, I can make no copyright claim. I would ask as a courtesy that in citing this electronic reprint or any hard copy printed from this electronic reprint, that you include the line, "Electronic facsimile reprint, A.D. 2000 by J. William Newcomer, Ada, Michigan". I also ask that this reprint would not be used in any "for profit" manner. This book is not without some errors. It is a secondary source for genealogy information, and it is your responsibility, as you are able, to verify from more original sources all facts in this book. I should also note that this reprint contains some hand written notes written by my family that would not be found in other extant copies of the original 1882 work.

With a population of around 35 million, Greater Tokyo is the ultimate "modernist" conurbation; a vast megacity, where something as old-fashioned as realist art might seem out-of-date and out-of-place. Maybe so, but on the metropolis' western and eastern extremities stand two museums that, each in their own way, evoke the power and potential of realism.
One is the Takao Trick Art Museum, a venue in the shadows of Tokyo's western mountains that delights in the illusionist aspects of realism. The other is the Hoki Museum, an architectural masterpiece located in Toke on the eastern edge of Chiba City, which houses works by Japan's best contemporary realist artists.
The Trick Art Museum reveals the potent effects that realism has been able to generate, using the rules of perspective, shading, and other optical tricks discovered in the Italian Renaissance. This reveals the power that lies within realism, although the emphasis here is on entertainment rather than awe.
The Hoki Museum takes its art a lot more seriously, housing its collection in a building designed to filter out distractions. This has been done by "erasing" the ostentatious elements of architecture, such as doorways, corners, light fixtures, and even the joins between wall, floor, and ceiling, to create an elongated, seamless space that favors a more intense appreciation of the paintings.
Although essentially a home for a growing permanent collection of realist art, the museum periodically stages special exhibitions curated by its founder, Masao Hoki. These seek to shed new light on aspects of realist art, such as the latest show, "Realism: Its Potential and Challenges."
The challenge in this case was a very open-ended one. Hoki simply asked 15 artists, whose work he collects, to paint several works each on the theme of "My Best Work," granting them full freedom to interpret the theme as they wished, and then selecting the best ones for the exhibition.
"These are the works that represent the 'beings' of the artists and the new themes that they really wanted to paint, and which employ ever-more effective technical means," Hoki explained in a recent interview. "These works have a sense of existence and newness that distinguish them from the realism of just copying."
This reveals a central idea that Hoki follows in his curatorial approach: that the technical challenges and difficulties of realism are not a constraint upon the expressiveness, creativity and personality of the artist, but rather a process by which the painter finds a unique voice and in the process becomes a true individual artist.
This is borne out by the paintings in the exhibition. On one level, they are painted with a visual veracity that allows lazy comparisons to photography; but, on another, it is clear that each of the "human cameras" involved is quite distinct, exhibiting a unique combination of perception, preference, skill, and nuance that is channeled and focused through the disciplines of realism.
The artists have responded to Hoki's challenge by taking a number of different directions. While some have opted to paint people, including a heartfelt portrait of Hoki himself, others have channeled their creativity toward landscape and still life. But, even where the subject choice is similar, the treatment diverges.
Fumihiko Gomi's "The Woman Who Loved Beards" (2012) shows a fragmented close-up, suggestive of a broken mirror or a torn-up photograph. Nobuyuki Shimamura's "Wishing" (2012), by contrast, is a simple, charming image of a dreamy girl, with a subtle hint of time passing in the clock motif of the table.
Shimamura also presents us with a full frontal nude, "Contraposto I" (2011), while the works of Kenichiro Ishiguro play games with concealment. "Idle Slumber" (1993-2012) shows a man sleeping on a park bench, his face covered beneath a hat.
As you peruse these works, you start to develop a clearer notion of the personality of each painter than you would at a typical exhibition of conceptual or abstract art. But, according to the museum's chief architect, Tomohiko Yamanashi, the paintings at the Hoki also have a "micro-abstract" aspect, which the building helps to bring out.
"Usually this kind of art appears in a very classical and decorative situation," explains Yamanashi. "But I thought if we could erase the architecture itself, then maybe people would look closer and deeper at this art and see its abstract qualities as well. If we see abstract art, we realize it's not an illusion, but a kind of combination of pigment and materials. But if you look at realist art very, very carefully, you realize that the same kind of thing is happening on the canvas."
For over a century the art world had been dominated by non-realist art, but with the avant-garde increasingly running out of ideas, the future of art may well lie in a return to a reinvigorated realism. In that case the Hoki Museum is positioned to play a key role.
"Realism: Its Potential and Challenges" at the Hoki Museum runs till May 19; open 10 a.m.-5 p.m. (Fri and Sat. till 6 p.m.). ¥1,500. Closed Wed. www.hoki-museum.jp.

In 1966, proto-performance artist, Kendrick Washington, stood before an audience in Los Angeless Coronet Theater and held up a large mirror, aimed at the crowd. For an hour. Washingtons performance ended when an audience member (one of the few who remained) threw a shoe that busted the actors mirror.

The response to Hunter Bell and Jeff Bowens [title of show] has been better -- perhaps because the playwrights and performers involved in this production are holding up a mirror to themselves. A figurative mirror, that is, as [title of show] is a musical about two New York songwriters who are writing a new musical about two New York songwriters who are writing a new musical. The show wowed Broadway audiences and critics last fall, and ought to go over well with Phoenix crowds, as well: the Arizona Theater Company version is staged by the same team that created ATCs acclaimed adaptation Hair from last season.

Scripture… As We Live It #38
Here is passage #38 in "Scripture… As We Live It":
You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life;
and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life; and you are right. Just keep studying. (John 5:39-40 re-mix)

And praying, and being still before the Lord.
…but…but… its just so much easier to search the scripture… the bible is something tangible and absolute.
***Thought I would throw some handy justification in there.
I really enjoy the "Scripture… As We Live it" series of posts! Keep em' coming!
"You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and all it does is inflate your head. Take one aspirin, and study harder tomorrow.†(John 5:39-40 another re-mix)
Sorry Alan, I haven't figured out how to do the strikeouts 🙁
Sometimes these posts are too easy and too much fun… 🙂
The code for strikethrough is [del]text to be stricken[/del], but replace the [] with <>.
There are apparently several ways to do strikethroughs. One is simply by using "s" in the HTML tag. Oops, I just tried it here. My posting editor allows "s", but the comments section apparently doesn't allow either "s" or "del".
Alan, somtimes I do real life misquotes when I write, but I like the strikethrough/red letter idea better becuase the reader can see both what was written and what is interpreted.
Thanks for the help. As long as I've coded html, I didn't know about "s".
Good post. 🙂

|Buddha's best route***, face moves about 20 ft to the roof, placing a small tcu or stopper directly below the roof is helpful but not a must. The roof consists of large jugs with a bolt in between them. Easier 5.9 moves to the anchors.

Just noticed the comment above, it's been two years but figured I'd clarify. We added the extra bolt in 2003 with permission from Robbie Williams, who established the line. Originally there was a pin that Robbie placed, but a subsequent party removed it.
It was very runout after the pin was removed, so Robbie, myself, and several others agreed that a bolt made sense.
As for skipping the bolt because it would get in the way of the rope, I've seen countless climbers clip that bolt, and it runs just fine.

Taping a handwritten note on the doors of City Hall or having a policeman bellow out an announcement on a bullhorn driving through neighborhoods aren't apparently the best ways for North Little Rock city leaders to get their message out to their citizens.
In December, the Masters of Public Administration program at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock issued a report to the city of North Little Rock telling leaders better ways to communicate with the public.
The 12-member program team updated city officials on the best ways to use modern social media venues to better connect with the public.
"The city of North Little Rock seeks to create a comprehensive communication strategy that includes: community participation, advanced technology, social media, and standard use policies," according to the study. "To advance participation, the city of North Little Rock must bridge gaps between government officials and the public; through new technologies, the city can open new pathways to connect to citizens."
Technologies suggested by the study included Internet, text messaging and mobile applications.
"The use of these new technologies — Internet, text messaging and mobile applications — enhances the City of North Little Rock's ability to provide information and services, and potentially reach those previously unreached," the study states. "Social media platforms can be used to communicate information to citizens."
The study adds, "By creating standard use policies, the city of North Little Rock can govern employee use and conduct, standard responses, record retention and disclosure issues."
The purpose of the report is to provide direction to the city based on research of participation and engage practices used by other cities.
The project team offered several ideas for considerations including:
• Utilize technology to increase communication;
• Increase the use of the city's website;
• Develop a social media strategy;
• Use text messaging for emergencies;
• Propose and plan for using mobile applications to increase participation;
• Develop and implement standard use policies.
UALR reported that governments across the country are engaging in technology in an attempt to bridge the gap between public officials and citizens. Information provided by the Pew Research Center earlier this year finds that if citizens feel they can impact their community they are more likely to participate and be satisfied with services their city provides.
New technology is enabling municipalities to communicate directly with its citizens.
However, just because it is wise to use newer technologies municipalities need to remember using older-style communication methods, the study adds.
"The city must consider the digital divide," according to the report. "The 'digital divide' is the separation between the information technologies 'haves' and 'have nots' — those who have affordable, reliable constant access to high speed Internet and smartphone devices and those who are not able to afford access."

The Wichita Eagle
TOPEKA - Buhler football coach Steve Warner struggled to answer whether the Crusaders' 35-21 loss in the Class 4A semifinals would have had a different result Friday if injured star tailback Jordan Oden had played.
"It's really tough to say that," Warner said. "I thought (backup Tanner Fisher) played really well, he ran hard. With the leadership that Jordan brings, you can't look at it that way."
Even if Oden hadn't suffered a broken collarbone in last week's win over Rose Hill, he might not have made the impact Hayden receiver Sean Morrow made.
When Buhler began stifling Hayden's running game in the second half, the Wildcats began calling Morrow's number. Three of his four touchdown receptions came after halftime as Hayden pulled away after being tied 14-14 at half. The Wildcats meet Bishop Miege in the 4A title game next Saturday in Salina.

Nothing can replace a missing pet, which is why many people post rewards when their dog or cat goes astray, hoping that someone will find their animal and return them safe and sound. More than likely, people will offer a reward that's affordable to them. For novelist/screenwriter Dennis Lehane, what he has to offer in exchange for his missing dog may have a more lasting effect than some cash. The writer, who's known for Mystic River, Shutter Island and a number of other titles, is offering to name a character after the person who finds his lost beagle.
(Via EW) Lehane, who lives in the Boston area, posted the following message on his Facebook page.
One another, more urgent note, our recent and beloved rescue dog, Tessa, jumped the fence in Brookline and has been roaming through the wilds of Coolidge Corner for the last 24 hours. It's possible she's staying in some good Samaritan's home right now or has tucked herself away on a porch. But if anyone sees her or knows of her whereabouts, please reach out to this page. Here's a picture of her. She's smart, fast, and immeasurably sweet. She doesn't have a mean bone in her body. She's micro-chipped, but her tags were off when she was let out into the yard. Naming of character in the next book for anyone who gets her back to us! (No, really!) Again--Tessa, black-and-tan Beagle, 24 hours on the lam, sweet as all hell. Thank you!
Lehane also shared a photo of the dog:
As a book reader, I have to say, this is a pretty creative way to bring attention to the lost pet and reward someone for bringing her home. Assuming someone finds the dog and collects this reward, it'll be interesting to see how their name is worked into Lehane's next book.
As a pet owner, my heart goes out to Lehane, his family and Tessa. Hopefully we'll hear good news at some point in the near future that Tessa has been found and returned home. In the meantime, for those in the areas mentioned in Lehane's post, he invites people to reach out on this page with information if you see her or know where she might be.
