IT'S a bottle that people can recognize even when they feel it in the dark. It's just so unique that it could be identified when shattered on the ground.
No one can even guess where the Coca-Cola business might be today if it were not for the distinct package that distinguishes the product of Coca-Cola bottlers around the world.
The Coca-Cola bottle is 100 years young this year. To mark this milestone, The Coca-Cola Company is celebrating with a year-long campaign that includes new advertising, a music anthem and a series of art exhibits featuring works from some of the world's leading contemporary artists including Andy Warhol, Norman Rockwell and Peter Blake.
"Since its creation in 1915, the Coca-Cola bottle has achieved iconic status as a symbol of refreshment and uplift and it remains an important asset for our business today," said Marcos de Quinto, Chief Marketing Officer, The Coca-Cola Company. "The campaign, which will be executed in over 130 countries, is our invitation to consumers around the world to share in the specialness of an ice-cold Coca-Cola."
In early 1900s, The Coca-Cola Company decided to offer Coca-Cola in a bottle, in addition to the traditional soda fountain, capitalizing on its popularity and making it available to everyone. However, due to the popularity of the Coca-Cola bottle — which featured a simple, easily replicable design — competitors began imitating the bottle.
In 1915, The Coca-Cola Bottling Company challenged glass companies across the US to develop a new bottle. Inspired by the shape and lines of the cocoa bean, the Root Glass Company in Terre Haute, Indiana developed a bottle concept. A committee of bottlers and Coca-Cola executives selected the design and, in 1916, the Coca-Cola bottle was born.
To protect the secrecy of the bottle, the patent submissions were made without the signature embossed Coca-Cola script lettering. The Coca-Cola Company officials called for the new bottle to be colored "Georgia Green," in homage to the home state of The Coca-Cola Company.
Distinctive contour
With its unmistakable curves and a distinctive contour, the bottle has become a global icon, inspiring a century's worth of signature moments in film, social history, design and the fine arts.
Throughout history, the Coca-Cola bottle has been dubbed the "hobbleskirt bottle," named for the popular fashion trend during the 1920s, and the "Mae West" bottle — after the actress's famous curves. The first reference to the bottle as a "contour" occurred in a 1925 French Magazine, La Monde, which described the Coca-Cola bottle with a distinctive contour shape. To the general public, the shape is just "the Coke bottle."
The first popular artist to incorporate the Coca-Cola bottle in a painting was Salvatore Dali, who included the bottle in his 1943 work, Poetry in America. Making art out of daily life, Andy Warhol featured the Coca-Cola bottle in his modern paintings. Warhol's "GreenCoca-Cola Bottles" series is currently part of a collection at The Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City.
Artists such as Howard Finster, Tom Wesselmann, Ulrich Walter and Carlos Vergar have also featured the Coca-Cola bottle in their masterpieces.
In 1930, artist Fred Mizen painted a picture of Santa Claus drinking a bottle of Coca-Cola, joining the brand with the holiday icon for the first time. In 1950, Coca-Cola in a bottle was the first commercial product to appear on the cover of Time Magazine.
Interestingly, in different regions of the world, eyeglasses with very thick lenses in the frame are called "Coke bottle glasses." Blues players have also been known to use necks from Coca-Cola bottles to play slide guitar, coining the term "bottleneck slide."
So far, more than 300 billion Coca-Cola bottles have been sold since its creation in 1915.
Among the highlights of the Coke Bottle 100 campaign, the High Museum of Art, in collaboration with The Coca-Cola Company, will present The Coca-Cola Bottle: An American Icon at 100, a four-part exhibit that will salute the Coca-Cola bottle and its special place in the worlds of art, design and commerce over the past 100 years.
For the first time ever, two original Andy Warhol Coke Bottle paintings will be displayed alongside more than 100 original bottle-inspired artworks and photographs.
In addition, a traveling art exhibition, The Coca-Cola Bottle Art Tour: Inspiring Pop Culture for 100 Years, will visit more than 15 countries and travel 62,000 miles around the world in 2015.
Other interactive activities will include the launch of 14 new television and digital films, Out of Home and print campaign featuring iconic celebrities, New Music Anthem from emerging artist, Francesco Yates, Kiss The Past Hello — A book published by Assouline and featuring classic and contemporary images of the bottle as well as Story of the Coca-Cola Bottle App — Interactive journey for consumers through the Coca-Cola archives in Atlanta.

After 'bad' rookie year, Vikings' Patterson vows to be 'way better'
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — For so long, Cordarrelle Patterson could dominate on the football field simply with his talent and athleticism.
Patterson toyed with the competition in junior college and didn't miss a beat at Tennessee in his one year of major college football. The NFL didn't even seem to bother the Minnesota Vikings rookie much last season.
Heading into the offseason, Patterson had an All-Pro rookie season as a kickoff returner and an expanding role in Minnesota's offense from which to build. Patterson couldn't be faulted for enjoying himself in the offseason after the whirlwind year that included getting drafted in the first round by Minnesota and ended by playing in the Pro Bowl.
Patterson didn't rest on his laurels. A bit of blunt self-scouting led him to a sobering realization.
"Last year, coming in as a rookie, you really don't know what to expect," Patterson said. "I don't think my work ethic was good enough last year. This year my whole mindset is remember everything, do better than you did last year, I think I was kind of bad last year, this year will be way better."
Badness, like beauty, must be in the eye of the beholder.
Patterson led the NFL with a 32.4-yard average on kickoff returns, scoring two touchdowns in the process, including an NFL-record-tying, 109-yard return.
Where Patterson seems harshest about his development is within the offense, which was slow to come at times in his first season. However, he progressed as the year went on and finished with 45 catches for 469 yards and four touchdowns, adding 12 carries for 158 rushing yards and another three touchdowns.
Still, Patterson became his harshest critic.
"You got to do it yourself," Patterson said. "I was looking at film of me last year, looking at how I didn't finish. This year, coach (Mike) Zimmer set the tempo high yesterday. My work ethic from last year to this offseason has improved."
Patterson's biggest focus is the mental approach to the game.
"Just my knowledge," Patterson said. "I want to come in totally different this year with my knowledge. I want to learn everything this year. Last year I was just playing 'X' (receiver position) and I want to play everything this year so if Coach needs me, if someone goes down, I can be that guy."
The complexities in new offensive coordinator Norv Turner's offense make the learning curve steeper in his second year. For the fourth straight season, Patterson is dealing with a different coaching staff, different terminology.
Patterson knew more would be expected of him, as well. At the Pro Bowl, he spoke with Josh Gordon, who led the NFL with 1,646 receiving yards under Turner last year in Cleveland.
"He was telling me, 'my coach is going to get you the football, not just you, everybody on your team — running back, tight end — everybody is going to get the ball,'" Patterson recalled.
Turner has also made the Patterson-Gordon connection. On the first play during team drills in the afternoon of Wednesday's minicamp, Patterson took a reverse.
The multi-talented Patterson opens up many options for Turner, who is still trying to diagnose what Patterson can do.
"I think you've always got to hold that judgment in terms of how a guy handles it," Turner said. "We've had guys who have been very productive players, extremely outstanding players I would say, and they lined up and played one position. We've had a bunch of other guys we've moved around. We've moved Cordarrelle around quite a bit this week and he seemed to handle it pretty well, so we'll see how much he can handle."
Patterson is confident he can handle anything. He's putting in the work to make sure he's able to handle what Turner has in store.
"He's been working his butt off these past three weeks," quarterback Christian Ponder said. "He's been asking a lot of questions with us, trying to put in more time to study. He knows this is a lot of offense and he's going to be a key part of it, so he's trying to do the best he can to gain knowledge of what he's doing and so far he's done a great job."
Patterson said he's come back bigger too. He's putting in the physical and mental work to go with his natural gifts.
"I just want to be great," Patterson said. "You always want to be great as a person. I feel like I've got a lot of confidence in myself. Greg (Jennings) told me that a lot coming in as a rookie: 'You've got to be more confident than anyone you know.' I just like to set the tone for myself and my teammates."

NBA Preseason 2012: Rookies with Most Pressure on Their ShouldersOctober 16, 2012
NBA Preseason 2012: Rookies with Most Pressure on Their Shoulders
Being a lottery pick in the NBA is extremely exciting for young players. But when the games start, bearing the brunt of the expectations to carry a poor franchise by themselves can be overwhelming.
Not all rookies are created equal, and not everyone can pull a LeBron James and single-handedly turn a consistently terrible team into a yearly contender.
Well, there actually is no one ever like LeBron James.
The latest draft was not as superstar-studded as ones that included Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade, but this one did hold a lot of depth for future budding stars.
Using the word "pressure" would be reckless without including the team's expectations into that equation.
For example, how much pressure was actually on Anthony Davis and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist when they were drafted by the worst two teams in all of basketball?
Sure, it would be nice if they showed signs of stardom, but fans would be content if they finished ten wins better than last year. That would be 32 wins for the New Orleans Hornets and 17 for the Charlotte Bobcats.
Not exactly pressure-filled expectations for either of the top two picks.
Here are the five picks who will have to put the proverbial franchise on their backs.
Damian Lillard
Summer League doesn't really mean much, but when a point guard can do things like that, it is certainly noteworthy.
Lillard showed great poise dribbling into the lane without over-penetrating and a silky smooth jump shot extending well behind the three-point line.
With all his talent, the pressure on him to run a veteran-laden team will be very high.
Unlike other lottery draft picks, Lillard is actually playing on a good team in the Portland Trail Blazers, who have the solid shooting guard Wes Matthews, all-around player Nicolas Batum and one of the best players in the league, LaMarcus Aldridge.
However, the lacking aspect on this year's team is the dearth of depth. After the top five players, there is no one who has proven NBA ability.
Lillard's backups are Ronnie Price and Nolan Smith—not very exciting or good.
Therefore, Lillard will play up around 35+ minutes per game and will have all the opportunity to capitalize and excel.
While playoffs may not be a prerequisite for success, Blazers fans certainly expect Lillard to take control of this team and lead them to a sub .500 season.
Jared Sullinger
On a team with Rajon Rondo, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce, one would believe there wouldn't be much focus on anyone else.
However, when the Celtics drafted Sullinger with the 21st pick, they fully intended on playing him a lot.
According to BostonHerald.com, Sullinger may play a starting role this year when Coach Rivers wants a more traditional lineup on the floor.
This bodes well for Celtic fans because it would mean that the back injury that caused Sullinger to slide is having no ill effects on his current play.
However, with the christening of Sullinger as power forward on a contending team looking to beat the Miami Heat comes immense pressure and scrutiny.
Then there is this:
Watching Celts on NBA TV right now. Trying not to tweet something gushy about Sullinger that could haunt me. So... um... how's it going?
— Bill Simmons (@sportsguy33) October 9, 2012
It's always good when the Sports Guy himself approves of you, but this will only add to the notion Sullinger can be the Celtic's difference maker in the postseason.
He certainly isn't, at least for this year.
Sullinger will be unable to sit back, watch and learn from the veterans. Being thrown into the proverbial fire immediately may aid in his development but might also backfire and set him back a bit.
Keep in mind that Sullinger does not possess much unilateral athleticism and will have trouble scoring over and guarding athletic power forwards.
Harrison Barnes
Once known as the next big thing and presumable number one draft pick, Harrison Barnes ended up staying at North Carolina for two seasons before entering the draft.
He slipped down to number seven overall and landed with the Golden State Warriors—pretty much the team known for drafting busts like Joe Barry Carroll, Todd Fuller, Patrick O'Bryant, and Ike Diogu.
His flaws are aplenty: not being athletic enough to drive to the basket and simply lacking the talent and drive to fulfill the expectations given to him before he even stepped foot into North Carolina.
Pressure? Barnes knows all about it, being the first freshman ever named a Preseason All-American at North Carolina.
In Golden State, he won't have those types of expectations, but he is still expected to contribute heavily to a team that appears ready to make the jump to the playoffs.
On a team with excellent low-post passers like Andrew Bogut and David Lee, scorers like Klay Thompson and an above-average distributor in Stephen Curry, Barnes won't be asked to shoulder much of the offensive workload.
However, they will need him to capitalize on his length and deceptive athleticism in guarding opposing wings because, let's face it, Thompson, Lee and Curry won't be able to.
Adding more pressure is the fact that Barnes may start the season as one of the starters in the rotation, according to Marcus Thompson of the Contra Costa Times.
Kendall Marshall
With the incumbent point guard leaving, top Phoenix Suns' draft pick Kendall Marshall will have the chance to play a starring role in Coach Alvin Gentry's up-tempo offense.
The Suns have an outside chance at a playoff spot, so expectations will be tempered for Marshall.
There's just one problem.
The person he is replacing just happens to be one of the best point guards of all time: Steve Nash.
Even though the Suns lacked athletic wings that can score—a necessity for any proficient offense in today's NBA—they somehow finished the NBA ninth in scoring with 98.4 points a game.
Much of that was attributed to Nash's understanding of the offense and knowing where each player was at all times. Nash demonstrated an uncanny ability to locate his bigs rolling and to pinpoint the pass to them with a deft flick of the wrist.
If there is one rookie who has pure point guard abilities that can rival Nash's, it is Kendall Marshall.
Even though Goran Dragic will be the presumptive starter, Marshall will garner minutes as the team's point guard because of the shooter and slasher than Dragic can be.
It isn't like Wesley Johnson is a star that can't be benched.
If he can fill over fifty percent of what Nash was, the Suns will be able to make some noise in the bottom half of what should be muddled Western Conference standings.
Dion Waiters
Coming into the draft, Dion Waiters was compared to both Dwyane Wade and Russell Westbrook because of his savage basket attacking mentality.
Cleveland passed on Andre Drummond, Harrison Barnes and Thomas Robinson in order to nab him at the number four spot.
Too early? Won't matter if Waiters is who they think he is.
So far, the results aren't very good.
Despite being essentially handed the starting shooting guard job next to Kyrie Irving, he has disappointed in Summer League and the preseason.
During Summer League he showed up out of shape and failed to take advantage against much lesser competition than he will face during the season. He repeatedly jacked up high-risk shots and showed below-average decision making.
During the preseason, he has yet to improve and even showed a lack of concentration and focus.
Expectations are high, considering the past few guards the Cavs have drafted: Kyrie Irving and one LeBron James.

English DubEdit
Occasionally in the English Dub there have been changes with the material which contradicts with the original material from the Manga and Japanese version of the anime. Among the changes there have not only been name changes, but also either changes in the original plot material or the addition of minor plot material that did not exist in the original storyline.
Name ChangesEdit
- Suzuki - Suzuka (changed back in the remastered version)
- Bat Tamer - Baldok
- Keiko - Kayko
- Yoko Kurama - Yoko (his title was changed to his name)
- Shishiwakamaru - Shishi Wakamaru
- Armor of Demon Pheasant - Armor of the Phoenix
- Armor of Demon Dog - Armor of the Wolf
- Team Mashōtsukai - Team Masho
- Tōya - Touya
- Shuichi (Kurama's half-brother)- Kokoda
- Kazuma Kuwabara - Kazuma Kuwahara (non-Funimation english dub from the movies)
Other ChangesEdit
- Koenma's comment to Yusuke that he misses his chance to be revived then he must wait for another 50 years was changed to 52 years in the dub.
- Instead of asking the Forlorn Hope to drain half of his life energy from him and Kurama to fulfill Kurama's wish which it does, Yusuke instead asks the mirror to take his life instead and the mirror decides to fulfill the wish without taking either life as a reward for Yusuke's compassion.
- Both yōki and reiki was collectively known as Spirit Energy in the Spirit Detective and Dark Tournament sagas before the term Demon Energy was used as a translation for yōki.
- In the early english dub, Demon World was implied to be a part of Spirit World before this was corrected in later episodes.
- All humans with special powers are referred to as psychics in the dub.
- While the anime changed Yusukes first training session with Genkai from 2 weeks to one month, the english anime changed it to six months instead.
- Yusuke's own Sacred Energy created by fusing Spirit and Demon Energy was changed to a completely new type of energy.
- At the beginning of the Rescue Yukina arc, when Yusuke demanded to know what Botan told Keiko regarding his job as a Spirit Detective and why she couldn't tell her everything, the dub adds an explanation that Spirit World cannot exist if regular humans know about it.
- The explanation for the Purgatory Scorch (Fist of the Mortal Flame) was changed from using human world flames instead of demon world flames to using "Mortal Energy" instead of "Spirit Energy".
- The explanation for the creation of the Blaze-Murdering Sword (Sword of the Darkness Flame) was changed to where it was created by the flames from the Tyrant-King's Blaze-Murdering Black-Dragon-Wave (Dragon of the Darkness Flame) instead of the flames from demon world.
- Instead of asking for Yusuke, Kuwabara, and the Masked Fighter to be his test subjects should they lose, in the dub Dr. Ichigaki only asks for Yusuke as his test subject
- Butajiri's character was slightly changed where he blamed Yusuke for Gonzo Tarukane's death and ploted to use their match against his team, Team Masho to seek revenge. Also added to the dub is Sakyo revealing to Butajiri that Toguro was the one who killed Tarukane just before Toguro killed Butajiri.
- Hiei's comment about Seiryū during Kurama's match against Toya that he was a true ice master to whom he had killed before he used any more dangerous techniques was changed in the dub where he denounced that Seiryū was not a true Ice Master in comparison to Toya who was.
- Koto is given a more sadistic attitude and outlook on things.
- Younger Toguro's reason for kicking Elder Toguro off of Hanging Neck Island before the final match which was due to Elder Toguro's suggestion that they try to cheat was slighlty changed in the dub where it is implied that Younger Toguro was disgusted by the grotesque mockery that he did towards Genkai earlier.
- Younger Toguro's 100 percent and 100 over 100 percent was changed to him saying that he lied and what he claimed was 100 percent was actually 80 percent, with 100 over 100 being changed to 100 percent.
- Itsuki's backstory was changed to Itsuki watching Sensui from the shadows (even secretly helping him out a few times) even before he met and was attacked by the Spirit Detective.
- The Beautiful Suzuki (as the Strong Tanaka) begged for his life at Toguro's 30 percent. The dub changed it to a mere 3%.
- Team Uraotogi's Japanese folktale references were unmentioned as American audiences would not be as familiar with them.
- Kuro Momotaro's steaming spheres instead of being a reference to Momotaro, was changed to reminding Jorge about a great loss in ogre history, as he claims they were used as weapons to kill several of his ancestors.
- Ura Urashima's claim to be the demonic reincarnation of Urashimataro was changed to him being forced to fight for the sake of his sick grandmother.
- Younger Toguro's final decision for being sent to the last cycle of hell was changed to Limbo for the english version.
- In episode 92, the loose translation neglects a short explanation from the S.D.F. which illustrates a fundamental contrast between Spirit World and Demon World. It reveals that while Demon World excels at attacking, Spirit World excels at defending. This ties into the logic behind the Kekkai Barrier, and why Spirit World would be able to seal away higher class demons despite their gap in power.

It's not all the time that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Cooling Fan Clutch to repair your vehicle. You purchased your R1500 Suburban because its dependability and trusted quality appealed to your senses; so why would you be okay with second best when it comes to superior quality auto parts? Anyone who owns a GMC knows that when it comes to fixing their automobile only the highest quality replacement parts will do. Make no mistake, you didn't buy your R1500 Suburban unless you understood you would be getting performance and rugged design both impeccably combined into one vehicle.
It requires a certain synergy - a need for many cooling components working in concert - to maintain constant engine temperature, and if one fails then the whole system is compromised. In most engines built before the 1990s, the fan blade is turned on by a cooling fan clutch. Your GMC R1500 Suburban engine cooling fan clutch engages the fan if the engine gets too hot OR if the engine isn't rotating fast enough. Depending on how your GMC R1500 Suburban engine was designed, your cooling fan clutch will be one of these two styles.

Scary Fog In Dubai Yesterday
The news today warned the public of the many more fog encounters we will have these coming days because the weather is changing. We are slowly easing into fall.
Driving in a very dense fog is treacherous. Plenty of motorists decided to stay home and waited it out while others pulled on the shoulder and the side of the road for safety. Others decided to skip work or school while others drove slowly than ever because you couldn't see the curb nor the pavement on the thick fog yesterday. Even flights were diverted and delayed. That one fog which lasted for several hours in the morning caused mayhem both on the ground and off!
So if you happen to drive into another fog in the coming days, please remember to practice caution. Do not, I repeat, do not ever use hazard lights as motorists behind will not be able to anticipate your sudden change of lane or stop. Use the fog lights and maintain a low beam. Using a high beam can reflect more light to tiny moisture and can cause more visibility issues. Also, drive slowly and maintain a safe distance of about 2-3 cars apart. Be patient as everyone else is hoping and praying to get to their destinations safely and in one piece.

Palm Springs Travel Blog› entry 1 of 3 › view all entries
August 30th, 2008 – by: jenn79
Tracy and I didn't really have plans for Labor Day, and our friend Danny was in need of some friendly faces and supportive spirits, so we decided to go and visit him in Palm Springs where he lived, and maybe Sheila would join us too! Because we couldn't make it out to see Sal during the LV meetup the weekend before, he offered to drive ALL THE WAY from LV to meet us in Palm Springs and have a little R&R with us!
Little did he realize.
Tracy and I left Los Angeles at 8:30 am, an hour later than we had planned but it was still reasonable if I drove just a wee bit faster! We had all sorts of scattered plans and ideas of what we would do that day. Between Tracy and I we had 2 duffels, 2 backpacks, 2 ice coolers and 5 cameras! Were we really only leaving for 3 days?! How is it possible to have so much stuff?! Ah well.. whatever - I had cleaned out some of my trunk so everything fit snugly with plenty of room to spare for a second layer of stuff.
We call Sal and Danny at around 10:30am when we get into downtown Palm Springs. They are both STILL ASLEEP! Danny skips out on brunch and we pick up Sal at the Holiday Inn. Wow, I have never seen such a nice Holiday Inn! What in the world is going on? Sal struck the jackpot and right in the middle of Palm Springs! Little did I realize the hotel Tracy booked was in Indio! Oh dear, that's a 25 mile trek one way to see Sal and Danny. But it's ok! We have 3 full, glorious days and a little extra driving never hurt anyone, especially with premium gas only being $4.07 a gallon out in Palm Springs!
Sal tries to sneak up behind me but my inability to sit still, I mean... my super sharp reflexes and 6th sense allow me to catch him in the act! We take a few pictures and go to Rock Garden Cafe for some food in the 105 degree, 30% humidity-and-rising air.
Sal shares such unbelievable stories and gives us such a piece of himself that it's pretty hard to pry ourselves away from brunch to continue our day. But we eventually leave and pick up Danny who is just down the street and we hug and exclaim with joy and hug some more, what the heck! We decide to go to Indian Canyon Palm Oasis (or some configuration of the aforementioned words). Great. Hiking. At least we have a bit of cloud cover but the humidity is prohibitive to much movement today.
The drive up reminded me of the Red Rock hike (without the caravan of troublemakers) but generally a similar scenery.
Tracy had a hankering for ice cream so after dropping Danny off for a rest, we found a Ben & Jerry's. Palm Springs is full of conveniences, I was so surprised. Anything you could possibly want - even the coffee shops sell gelato! Sal and Tracy got matching waffle cones and we sat outside pondering whether or not we'd be able to see meteor showers on Sal's last night here. There were clouds and heavy haze and things were not looking good! We turned over "The Big Chill" in our heads and tried to sort out each of our million travel plans for the next 12 months. We further cemented our theory that a majority of Travbuddies are totally ADD.
Tracy agrees to make a pitstop with me at Forever 21 in Palm Desert. I had went on a hunger induced shopping spree 3 weeks ago and bought all sorts of nonsense. My mom hated one of the dresses in particular, saying in Chinese that I looked like "a wrapped dumpling". I looked at the receipt a day before I left for Palm Springs and realized that Forever 21 doesn't have a 30 day return policy.. it has a TWENTY ONE day return policy! Slick, eh? Cheat the customers, promote the brand some more.
It's about 5pm now and Tracy and I have yet to check into our hotel. We go back, get our room, gag a little (couldn't get a non-smoking room - hotel is completely booked!) and marginally unpack. Showers are in order, and by the time we're done with that, it's time to leave to go back and pick up Sal and Danny again! I had read a nice review online about a restaurant called Copley's that looked fantastic. We go sans reservations and are given a seat in the outside patio area practically to ourselves! The night was warm, the atmosphere was romantic, and the company - unsurpassed! We eat amazing food, drink lovely concoctions and talk for about 4 hours! And I wanted more! Give me more great conversation!! The food was amazing at Copley's, but the highlights for me were the handmade cheese gnocchi and the basil ice cream.
A growing sentiment to go dancing after dinner evolved and Danny kindly took us to this INSANE boy's club. OH MY GOD. Palm Springs was pretty sedate and the streets weren't crowded at all. But we get to the club and it is OVERFLOWING. I have never seen so many men in so few clothes and it was my first time seeing a male go-go dancer I had to avert my eyes on the way in and on the way out it was totally crazy!! I do NOT want to see that much skin on someone I am not dating and please stop grabbing your parts young man!! No I don't want to see it!! Please put that away!!
Tracy, Danny and Sal shimmied by seventeen THOUSAND men and went to the dance floor to get their groove on. I could see them from the corner I was hiding at, trying to not faint from exhaustion or heat.
We leave a little after 1am and on the way back to the car, glance up. THE SKY HAS CLEARED! We were able to see stars!! So what do we do? You guessed it...

Symposium: Value Based Healthcare 13 articles
Shared Decision-making in Orthopaedic Surgery
The process of clinical decision-making and the patient-physician relationship continue to evolve. Increasing patient involvement in clinical decision-making is embodied in the concept of "shared decision-making" (SDM), in which the patient and physician share responsibility in the clinical decision-making process. Various patients' decision aid tools have been developed to enhance this process.
Value-based Purchasing of Medical Devices
Health care in the United States is known for its continued innovation and production of new devices and techniques. While the intention of these devices is to improve the delivery and outcome of patient care, they do not always achieve this goal. As new technologies enter the market, hospitals and physicians must determine which of these new devices to incorporate into practice, and it is important these devices bring value to patient care. We provide a model of a physician-engaged process to decrease cost and increase review of physician preference items.
Value-based Care in the Management of Spinal Disorders: A Systematic Review of Cost-utility Analysis
Spinal disorders are a major cause of disability and compromise in health-related quality of life. The direct and indirect costs of treating spinal disorders are estimated at more than $100 billion per year. With limited resources, the cost-utility of interventions is important for allocating resources.
Using Financial Incentives to Improve Value in Orthopaedics
A variety of reforms to traditional approaches to provider payment and benefit design are being implemented in the United States. There is increasing interest in applying these financial incentives to orthopaedics, although it is unclear whether and to what extent they have been implemented and whether they increase quality or reduce costs.
Does Age or Bilateral Disease Influence the Value of Hip Arthroplasty?
Measuring value in medicine is an increasingly important issue as healthcare spending continues to rise and cost containment becomes even more important. However, value assessments can be affected by patient factors and comorbidities.
The Use of Three Strategies to Improve Quality of Care at a National Level
Improving the quality of care is essential and a priority for patients, surgeons, and healthcare providers. Strategies to improve quality have been proposed at the national level either through accreditation standards or through national payment schemes; however, their effectiveness in improving quality is controversial.
Public Reporting of Cost and Quality Information in Orthopaedics
Public reporting of patient health outcomes offers the potential to incentivize quality improvement by fostering increased accountability among providers. Voluntary reporting of risk-adjusted outcomes in cardiac surgery, for example, is viewed as a "watershed event" in healthcare accountability. However, public reporting of outcomes, cost, and quality information in orthopaedic surgery remains limited by comparison, attributable in part to the lack of standard assessment methods and metrics, provider fear of inadequate adjustment of health outcomes for patient characteristics (risk adjustment), and historically weak market demand for this type of information.
Quality Indicators in Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery: A Systematic Review
The ability to measure health system quality has become a priority for governments, the private sector, and the public. Quality indicators (QIs) refer to clear, measurable items related to outcomes. The use of QIs can initiate local quality improvement and track changes in quality over time as interventions are implemented.
Care Experience-based Methodologies: Performance Improvement Roadmap to Value-driven Health Care
The literature contains proposals for creating value by creating exceptional patient experiences rather than simply improving services. However, few articles describe replicable applications focused on the patient experience.
Measuring the Value of Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty: Considering Costs Over the Continuum of Care
Controlling escalating costs of hip (THA) and knee arthroplasty (TKA) without compromising quality of care has created the need for innovative system reorganization to inform sustainable solutions.
Is Hip Arthroscopy Cost-effective for Femoroacetabular Impingement?
The impact of hip arthroscopy on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among younger patients with symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is unknown, but with increasing recognition of the condition there is likely to be increasing demand for arthroscopy.
Drivers of Surgery for the Degenerative Hip, Knee, and Spine: A Systematic Review
Surgical treatment for degenerative conditions of the hip, knee, and spine has an impact on overall healthcare spending. Surgical rates have increased dramatically and considerable regional variation has been observed. The reasons behind these increasing rates and variation across regions have not been well elucidated.

Customs Union of Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia: Trade Creation and Trade Diversion in Central Asia in 2010-2011. Roman Mogilevskii Institute of Public Policy and Administration, UCA Bishkek, 15 November 2012.

Roman Mogilevskii
Institute of Public Policy and Administration, UCA
Bishkek, 15November 2012
The issue of the CU creation and operations is big in the current policy discussions in the region and in the news
Major growth of trade between Russia and Kazakhstan (turnover 28% ↑) and between CU and other CA countries (turnover 19% ↑) has been reported in 2011
Is this growth due to the CU? This is the main question addressed in the paper
Trade between (i) Kazakhstan and other CU members, (ii) Kazakhstan and other CA countries, and (iii) other CA countries and other CU countries
Reservation – it is still early days of the CU, many potential effects had no time to materialize yetIntroduction
Kazakh-Russian trade is concentrated on energy, metals and, in the case of Russian exports, manufactured products
Kazakh-Belorussian trade is relatively small
Formal free trade regime with other CA countries has not changed
Trade between Kazakhstan and non-CU CA countries is concentrated on energy, cereals, and agricultural products
Trade between Russia and non-CU CA countries is concentrated on energy, machinery, agricultural and light industry productsKey facts on the Customs Union
Two major effects of regional trade agreements – trade creation and trade diversion
Few studies on the impact of the CU on its members and neighbours
CU effect on Kazakhstan depends on the success in improvement in Kazakh-Russian trade facilitation
If this improvement is achieved, substantial trade creation and positive welfare effects
If no improvement is achieved, Kazakh imports diversion from non-CU countries to other CU members and possibly CA countries accompanied by welfare lossesExpectations from the CU
Analysis of country trade shares creation and trade diversion
- Increase in share of a CU member country in other members' total exports/imports may signal trade diversion if accompanied by a decline in trade with non-CU countries, or trade creation if no decline is observed
Apart from the changes in trade policy, exports/imports depend on international commodity prices, domestic demand changes in trading countries etc. Country shares allow accounting for these factors
Trade is disaggregated to eight types of commodities: (i) energy, (ii) metals, (iii) cereals and flour, (iv) other agricultural products and foods, (v) chemicals and plastics, (vi) light industry products, (vii) machinery, and (viii) other productsMeasurement of trade creation/diversion
Imports of Kazakhstan
Exports of Kazakhstan
Trade of other CA countries with Russia & Belarus
Only rapid assessment creation and trade diversion
Possible effect on trade in services, investments, prices, government revenue, employment
Significant gain of the GoK budget in import duty revenue ≈ US$1.4 billion
No other significant changesOther economic changes in Kazakhstan
Major increases in the intra-CU trade and in trade between the CU and other CA countries are due to the growth of energy and metal prices
Few small cases of creation of trade between Kazakhstan and Russia
Large case of trade diversion with Kazakhstan's imports of machinery shift from developed countries to China and Russia – possible welfare loss
Few other minor trade changes attributable to the CU effectsConclusions
Significant CU-attributable gain for the government budget of Kazakhstan
Cumulative effect of the CU on the economy of Kazakhstan seems to be ambiguous
CU impact on other CA countries is small with minor gains for Uzbekistan
Actual effect of the CU so far is well below expectations
General assessment of the CU effects is not going to be unambiguously positive or negative; there are winners and losers in each country; accounting for details and nuances seem to be necessaryConclusions (2)

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: What is causing the leakage under my glove box to soak my front passenger mats? on 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
This did not start happening until my a/c went out then I started noticing after if rained my passenger side mat was soaking wet. I put a towel in between the mat and the ground after it rained one day the towel was dripping wet and he top mat was soaked!
In mine it was a stopped up plug in the engine compartment. It was filled with debris and clogging the drain hole up. Allowed water to stay in the vehicles body and come inside where the cabin filter is located. It requires removing the front tires and splash guards. On the front of the firewall near the tranny hump is a rubber gasket with small hole in it. Pull the plug out and allow the water to drain and replace the plug. Don't park anywhere around trees thereafter.

Study sheds light on regulation of hair growth across the entire body
To paraphrase the classic poem, no hair is an island entire of itself.
Instead, University of California, Irvine scientists have discovered that all hairs can communicate with each other and grow in coordination across the entire body. This is regulated by a single molecular mechanism that adjusts by skin region to ensure efficient hair growth -- so no bald patches form -- and enable distinct hair densities in different body areas.
In animals, this regulatory process is important for survival in the wild. In humans, these findings could lead to new ways of addressing both balding and unwanted hair growth -- and further understanding of how regions of faster and slower regeneration work in coordination in other fast-renewing tissues, such as the intestines and bone marrow.
For the study, the researchers used the first mouse model of poor hair growth to analyze human-like hair behavior that leads to baldness. Their results appear in eLife, an open-access journal focusing on the life and biomedical sciences. UCI's Maksim Plikus, assistant professor of developmental & cell biology, and Qing Nie, professor of mathematics, led the effort. Ji Won Oh from Plikus' lab and Qixuan Wang from Nie's lab contributed equally to this work.

Eversheds and SNR Denton have been appointed as advisers on Southampton's £450m Royal Pier Waterfront development.
Eversheds, led by development and regeneration partner Stephen Sorrell, is advising Morgan Sindall Investments (MSIL). The property investment company was selected to develop the Royal Pier Waterfront in February. Sorrell is being assisted by real estate partner Adrian Hill and commercial partner Kuljeet Hothi.
Morgan Sindall will partner with Southampton City Council, the Crown Estate and Associated British Ports, which own the 60-acre site jointly.
SNR Denton, led by real estate partner Richard Budge, is advising the council. Real estate partner Nick Mott and Mark Basset, a senior associate in the procurement law team, also worked on the deal.
The Royal Pier Waterfront is a 20-year scheme to create a mixed-use development with residential and office accommodation, shops and boat facilities. The development is part of the city's 'Renaissance Vision', which aims to turn Southampton into a city that can compete with the best in Europe.
"This development will be a huge boost for Southampton and bring vital jobs to the city," said Sorrell. "We look forward to working collaboratively with longstanding client MSIL in progressing what will be an exciting project."

Civil disobedience has been an important part of the fabric of this country and a key to social change from the earliest days of the country's development, through the Vietnam War protests, to the work of the civil rights movement and beyond.
As a new administration is set to begin its work within a divided country, acts of civil disobedience are on the horizon – some being organized now to be held before, during and after the inauguration of President Trump.
In a large country with a clutter of messages and a widening mix of media, are acts of civil disobedience even more relevant today? Will civil disobedience be used to disrupt a new administration that sees itself as disruptive? When is civil disobedience morally justified?
Does the means justify the ends? Can it go too far?
A panel of activists at a National Press Club Newsmaker news conference will discuss these and other issues at 10 a.m., Fri., Jan. 6, in the club's Zenger Room.
Speakers at this news conference include panelists who have been directly involved in acts of civil disobedience, including the co-founder of Occupy Wall Street, Micah White; Attorney Mara Verheyden-Hilliard, executive director of the Partnership for Civil Justice Fund, a non-profit constitutional rights legal organization that has litigated landmark free speech matters, works towards the elimination of discrimination and prejudice, and challenges government and police misconduct; and Adam Eidinger, local D.C. activist who has led civil disobedience acts related to the International Monetary Fund, genetically modified food and the legalization of marijuana.
The National Press Club is located on the 13th Floor of the National Press Building at 529 14th St., NW, Washington, D.C. Like all Newsmakers events, this news conference is open to credentialed media and NPC members, free of charge. No advance registration is required.

Umm...Stuff! :)
With regards to amv's comment on the last post, the Demovibes website seems to be up and about now: www.demovibes.org
What else....oh yeah. In my on going scene-music diggage, I finally found...well... let me try to explain to you what I found. The Assembly 2006 freestyle music competition happened on around 7:45 of a Saturday morning [Toronto time]. So I was half asleep when the competition started, and I was watching the web-tv on my notebook in bed. I remember hearing this fantastic song that took my breath away, but somewhere in between my struggle to open my eyes and a silly stream blink, I ended up missing the song info. So now after going through almost all the competition entries, finally I found it. "When Time Stands Still" by PK, check it out.
Also, I know that some of you have already discovered this, but if you haven't, make sure you check out "Aufgewacht Und Tee Gemacht" by Genox. [Ummm..."Woke up and made tea"?! I just hope I got the spelling right.] I've been listening to this about 10 times a day recently. One of the best that I've heared from this artist so far. Absolutely brilliant.
These 2 tracks speak directly to my heart. <3 <3 :>
And that's about it for now......
Update: Umm Guys...there's a new comment on the first part of the display report that you might like to check out. :)

The caller leaves word she's hidden something in the antebellum house Max and his wife, Annie, are restoring. When Annie finds out, she hurries to the woman's home, only to discover her shot. Annie hears her final whisper as she holds the dying woman's hand.
Evidence links the dead woman to a nearby home, where a fortune in gold coins has gone missing. The gold coins, rare Double Eagles, were stolen from a house filled with visiting family members - twentysomethings hungry for money and several with secrets they must keep.
Is one of them willing to kill for a fortune in coins? Or is it the dead woman's high-school dropout son? Max is there when the police arrest the son, but the boy's shock upon learning of his mother's death convinces Max of his innocence.
Max and Annie plunge wholeheartedly into the investigation. But are the coins hidden in Annie and Max's Franklin house? The intruder who shoots at Max seems to think so. And guess who walks in when Annie discovers the secret of that house....
©2008 Carolyn Hart; (P)2008 Books on Tape
Carolyn hart seems to be getting a second win this is the 2nd book in a row that got the old interesting stories.
most are good but there was 3 in a row that seemed a bit paper thin. but gladly this is great well worth a read.
"Don't Ignore a Plea For Help"
The characters keep growing. I miss some of the old one's though.
I'm a Laurel fan so anytime she is in the mix it's enjoyable. Emma's a blast to the scenes as well.
Definitely could tell the difference between character quite well. Really good at the whinny one's.
"Love this series!"
I love all of the Death in Demand stories. The characters are believable and interesting. They help me escape my world for a little while and enter another. Mysteries are my favorite, especially the ones I can't figure out before the end of the book. With this series, sometimes I am surprised at who done it!
The narrator was good for this story. She did voices for differtent characters. It was a good listen.
"Narration Distracting"
The voices of many of the characters in this audible version are so poorly done that I found it hard to get past them and lose myself in the story. The absolutely worst is Max Darling. I know it's difficult for a female narrator to do male voices, but she made Max sound old, supercilious, and completely out of character. He's supposed to be a cool, young guy and he sounded anything but. The story itself was entertaining although I felt certain of the murderer's identity early on and I prefer a plot that keeps me guessing until the end.

Metal thieves strike in Helmsley
12:27pm 26th March 2012
Police are appealing for witnesses after metal thieves struck at Helmsley Castle.
Sometime between 5pm on Friday 23rd March and 7am on Monday 26th March 2012 several lengths of lead guttering were taken from the front fascia of the Castle's visitor centre.
It is estimated that the lead is worth in the region of £1000.
Officers, who are making enquiries into the incident including checking CCTV footage to try and identify the offenders, are appealing for the public to help the investigation.
PC Andy Rogers, of Malton police, said:
"I am appealing to anyone who saw any suspicious activity in the area of Helmsley Castle over the weekend.
"It is likely that the offenders will have used a vehicle to transport the lead from the scene, therefore I would also like to hear from anyone who saw any suspicious vehicles in the area around the time of the theft.
"Metal theft is becoming increasingly common due to the scrap value it brings and I would urge people to report any suspicious circumstances to the police or Crimestoppers to help put a stop to metal thieves."
Anyone who can help the investigation is urged to contact North Yorkshire Police on 101 – select option 2 – and ask for Andy Rogers or Malton police.
Alternatively, Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111, quoting reference number 12120047618.

Slackware browser timeout on sites like amazon, alibris, citibank ...
Hi! I've looked around and haven't found an answer for this one.
I can't connect to certain big sites on Slackware, say, amazon, citibank, americanexpress. I get a message that the connection's timed out. It's the same whether I use mozilla, konqueror, lynx, whatever.
I had this problem in Slack 10.1, now the same with Slack 11.0 and an upgraded kernel, 2.6. I also tried disabling ipv6 in firefox, to no avail.
I know it's not my DSL connection because I have another computer running Debian on the same connection, and it gets into these sites just fine.
Anyone else had this problem? The weird part is that most sites, like this one right now, works. Please let me know if there's any diagnostic output I can post. I really appreciate any advice anyone has to offer.
All I can suggest is to check your dns settings, maybe check /etc/resolv.conf to make sure the nameserver is right. It might just be heavy traffic that's causing it. I've been unable to connect to ebay at times.
Probably isn't traffic
Thanks, simcox1. I will look at /etc/resolv.conf ... if I finally get around to learning how it works. But would I be able to use the Internet at all if that's what was broken?
I don't think it's the traffic. I mean, I'll try to get into citibank on Slack 11, won't work, then switch over to a Debian machine and get right in.
No one else has this problem, I guess?
I believe these sites use https, then there might be problems with your ssl libraries.

It's not much to look at, and actually, it's not particularly cheap, either -- so we're not too sure where Verizon's going with this one. If it's any indication, there doesn't appear to be an in-store launch planned for the somewhat frumpy CDM8950 -- which, to its credit, manages to offer VZ Navigator, EV-DO, and a totally mind-blowing 1.3-megapixel cam -- so we think Big Red's going to try to keep this sucker as low-key as possible by using it as a bone to throw to third-party sales partners. Pricing comes in at $79.99 on a two-year contract before $50 mail-in rebate (okay, we suppose $30 for a 3G flip ain't bad), while INpulse prepaid customers will be able to score their own for $99.99 after rebate.
[Thanks, anonymous tipster]

Organic Locust Bean Gum Carob Vegan, ingredients: Locust bean gum organic. (no additives).
Locust bean gum is a vegetable gum extracted from the seeds of the carob tree and is used as a thickening agent and gelling agent in cooking. This is produced in Italy. Carob bean gum is a natural polysaccharide thickener or gum that is used in many food products, such as sauces, dressings, cheese, condiments and ice cream. It is a versatile ingredient that can thicken products at hot or cold temperatures. One unique characteristic of carob bean gum is that is has a sweet, almost chocolatey flavour. As a healthier option than chocolate, it is often used in baked goods and desserts. It also is a gluten replacement option in many foods products and recipes that would normally require flour. It is also been reported to lower cholesterol of the blood. The acceptable daily intake has not been established and the product is regarded as safe as a food additive. However, like most polysaccharide gums, eating a high concentration can bring about bloating, gas, and stomach upset.

This is a brilliant substitute for cornflour if you want to avoid corn derivatives. As long as you use in small quantities it works fine.
Summary: You can still have meringues, even if you are vegan. Give this recipe a try !

Ed Thompson says the No. 1 issue in Wisconsin this year is defeating a Republican-backed constitutional amendment that would emphatically ban same-sex marriage and similar civil unions.more . . .
The proposed amendment is an "evil thing" that is "so incredibly wrong" it amounts to "lunacy," Thompson declared last weekend at the state Libertarian political convention in Madison.I'd add that if you are for that, you must be a Republican bigot—if you can accept that, you're likely a Democratic bigot. What self-repecting LGBT person could vote for either of those? Now, back to the Libertarian convention . . .
The GOP-run Legislature is attempting to "pass laws of prejudice against people," Thompson told convention-goers. "If you can accept that, you're not a Libertarian. You're not even an American. You're a bigot."
Thompson's tough talk drew a standing ovation and signaled that public perceptions and political momentum on the controversial issue are changing. [emphasis added]Thanks Ed, for telling it straight.

Where You Are by Alla Kar / @allakar1_ / @swoonromance
Where You Are
by Alla Kar
Release Date: 07/29/14
Swoon Romance
New Adult
Got boy problems? Call Laney Scott. She's good for advice, a shoulder, or a swift kick where you need it. When her roommate Bethany gets her heart broken, yet again, it's Laney to the rescue. But Laney's harboring a secret. She's nursing her own broken heart. She and her friends come up with a plan to break Aiden and set it into play. Laney wants Aiden to pay for what he's done to Bethany. She will make him fall in love with her, so can break his heart.
Laney's ex-boyfriend Lachlan Hems is back in Florida, still Australian and sexy as hell. His best mate Lucas is getting married, and he is in town for the show. He just didn't realize Laney would be there … in another guy's arms, or that seeing her again would have such an effect on him. After the incident in high-school, he vowed to never care for her again. But sometimes fate has different plans.
When Laney's resolve crumbles, Lachlan is the only one that can put her back together again.
Where You Are is the start of a three-books new adult series from Amazon and Barnes and Noble bestselling author Alla Kar.
Cold coffee. Is there anything worse?
Staring down into my owl coffee mug, the cool brown liquid gawks up at me in mock humor. The cord is lying on the counter beside the pot, not plugged into the wall where it was last night. Instead, Heather's—my looks-obsessed roommate—straightener is plugged in. What's the point of having a timed coffeepot if it's unplugged every morning before you get a chance to use it? I grit my teeth and blow my bangs from my forehead.
I snatch the cord from the plug-in and toss the straightener on her bed. Hopefully, she'll get the point. Instead of pouring the coffee down our sink, I sip on it. Hell shall freeze over before I go a morning without my coffee. Hell frozen-over would probably be hotter than my coffee right now. I grab my backpack, tie my blond hair into a messy bun, push up my thick, black-rim hipster glasses, and walk out of our dorm room.
I lock the door and head toward class, the aroma of perfumes swarming my nose. A few girls in towels race down the hall, screaming. Like clockwork, a tall muscular guy follows behind them, a huge I'm-going-to-get-some grin on his face. College is definitely a guy's wet dream come true. Especially, in a co-ed dorm. He'll have one of them pressed against their dorm room door tonight. They're all so predictable.
Don't get me wrong, it's perfectly fine to date. But, doing it wisely is a completely different issue. Girls aren't the smartest when it comes to dating. The three C's that guys can't stand are clinginess, crying, and clumsiness. I know it's not possible to walk like a runway model twenty-four seven. And we all know girls tend to cry, especially around that time of the month. But it's all about the game. You've got to play it right, so you can snag a great guy. It's so easy to rope one in as long as you focus, and I don't mean on his abs.
I go by Alla Kar. I live in the Deep South with my husband, Chihuahua and pit-bull puppy. I love to bring southern gentlemen, alpha males and all things new adult to life. I am an Amazon Best-Selling Author!

Band of Horses
"Now it's hard to remember it any other way." Band of Horses singer Ben Bridwell's compellingly evasive lyrical style will never let the listener on to the exact intent of this line as it appears in "Neighbor," the expansive Infinite Arms album closer, but taken out of the context of the song it becomes a sentiment of currency. The present state of the band is as close to ideal as rock n' roll can be. Having assembled a true creative and personal collective, designed and signed the record deal of his dreams, and made a fantastic new album free of any influence other than his onstage brothers in arms, it's hard to imagine that Bridwell cares to dwell on any time but the present. It took nearly 2 years, virtual bankruptcy, five states and a dead falcon to get there, but Infinite Arms is the product of a band doing things on their own terms and finally learning to enjoy the results.

text: I'm a bit of a gumby with this stuff, but I hate my gmail accout/email addy that it set up when I created my account when I got my phone. How do I go around changing it? Do I have to delete the account, which doesn't really bother me as such cause I don't really use it straight up. But obviously I do use it with my phone (galaxy s) and I sync my contacts and calendar from my phone to gmail, and then from gmail to outlook via gmail calendar sync. What I'm worried about is losing the info on my phone! If I delete my gmail account on the web will it delete all my info on my phone? I only use the gmail calendar and gmail contacts. Or can I set up a second gmail email addy using the name I want (which I'm sure is available)?
