When an aging convicted murderer is slated to be executed after 16 years on death row, the condemned man's daughter takes Col. Barnfather (Clayton LeBouef) hostage, demanding that her father's case be reopened. While Bolander (Ned Beatty) races against time to find any shred of evidence that might free the death-row prisoner, Giardello (Yaphet Kotto) and Russert (Isabella Hoffman) try to forget their differences long enough to defuse the hostage crisis. And on a lighter note, new tavern owner Munch (Richard Belzer) may be talked into investing in a microbrewery. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Kaity Bennington, NE 5/21/2012 2:25:57 PM We were given an 8 year old cockapoo after a friend could no longer care for her. After a few classes to help with fearful behavior, she is a happy and sweet-tempered dog with endless love to give. Consider a cockapoo as a family pet, but I would recommend a shelter or a rescue before turning to a breeder.
jennifer oshawa, CA 12/11/2011 4:32:30 PM My husband and i just got a cockapoo she is 6mths and she is amazing gets along great with our other dog who is pure cocker.I just find it hard to get her groomed she gets scared of the noise. we wouldn't go with any other breed now that we experienced the two,but how do i get her used to the grooming?
Bela New York, NY 4/28/2010 9:32:02 AM I have a nine mo. old cockapoo Nico and I agree with all the previous comments. Everybody is asking us (me and my boyfriend) what kind of dog is it and where to get them. We call him our "bunny". He loves to jump around and he is incredibly fast! He loves other dogs and he is the most gentle when it comes to treating people. He makes children and adults smile or laugh out loud on the street when we take him out for walks because of how cute and sweet he behaves. He loves to play with much bigger dogs especially, he jumps over them, under with the speed of lightning:).He is placing his bunny paws on faces of huge dogs and makes everybody's hearts melt...He chases petals of flowers outside like kittens do mice, he is just so cute and sweet and funny! Also, my boyfriend is allergic to dogs but not to Nico..He is a very quick learner as well.My boyfriend wanted a big dog before we've got Nico but now he says there is no better dogs than cockapoos are:)As much as I love all the dogs and had few different breeds in the past, I absolutely agree..Cockapoos need a lot of hugs and kisses though, so if you can't provide that, don't get a cockapoo!!!:)

FIU spring hype video
FIU released an impressive hype video yesterday mixing season highlights with their off season efforts.
The Golden Panthers finished last season 8-5, with only one of their losses coming by more than 10 points (and three of the five losses by a total of 10 points). From the looks of this video, Cristobal and the staff will be looking to close that gap and win at least a share of the conference title for the second time in three seasons.
FIU's spring game is slated for the March 30th.
Video: Mattison shares some valuable insight
Greg Mattison sat down with the media for the first time this offseason to talk about the progression and expectations for the defense in the second year under his leadership.
The number one goal is to get better at everything they do in the defense, one practice at a time, Mattison told reporters.
Mattison noted that every defense he has ever seen or been a part of has been "strong down the middle" starting with a good noseguard, then linebackers, and then the safeties.
The video is a bit long, but there are a few gems at the end worth hanging in there for. At one point a reporter asks about a player that had lost a significant amount of weight, and Mattison was flattered for a moment, thinking that the reporter was referring to him.
He also remarks at the end about a few guys that haven't been in pads as of yet, and have only been able to participate in conditioning. "This isn't cross country, they can come out there and run like crazy...they can be the best runners in the world and if they won't hit anybody, I won't like them as much".
Oregon State strength staff focusing on "want to"
Just before we stopped by Corvallis last week on the Pac 12 Tour, we brought you a video highlighting the Beavers intense off season efforts.
Brian Miller, Oregon States sports performance center director, told ESPN's Kevin Gemmell recently that the emphasis for this off season was to work on the team's "want to".
Miller explains that the "'want to' refers to the individual's preconceived internal desire to maximize and apply effort to everything they are doing. You have to want to get better, you have to want to be faster, you have to want to overcome an injury, you have to want to eat and recover properly"
Miller believes that football is about more than just effort. In his opinion, "you have to peel away the many layers and factors that create and influence effort; and that begins with an individual's 'want to.' Simply put, the team was challenged every day to be on a relentless pursuit of increasing their 'want to.' You have that approach every day and mix in a highly competitive training environment and you hope that it carries over onto the football field."
Oregon State will begin to put that belief to the test when they take the field on April 3 to kick off spring ball. The Beavers spring game will take place April 28.
Good stuff from Pitt DC Dave Huxtable
New Pitt defensive coordinator Dave Huxtable sat down with PittPantherVision, and former Pitt quarterback Pat Bostick to talk about his objectives through spring ball and what drew him to Pittsburgh.
Huxtable says that the tradition at Pitt and the familiarity he had working with Paul Chryst last year at Wisconsin made this new opportunity very appealing.
According to Huxtable, the main goal through spring ball is that the defense comes out with a good grasp on the new scheme and that players become "professionals at their techniques" so they are prepared for the fall.
Bostick also asked Huxtable if any leaders are emerging at this point, and Huxtable responded by saying "I think that's a little longer of a process. Right now they're all trying to learn, and once they gain that confidence in knowing what they're doing, I think some leaders will emerge".
Grambling State staff visits with LSU
Grambling State head coach Doug Williams and several assistants traveled to Baton Rouge to visit with Les and the LSU staff recently and came away with some valuable stuff.
A few years ago when they met at a camp, Les told Williams, "You let me know. Any time you can come, you can come." Williams said that when he picked up the phone to ask Les about bringing his staff in for a visit, Les more than happy to have them. "When I called about the possibility of doing some sort of spring training, he didn't hesitate" Williams said.
The visit to Baton Rouge was much different than some visits Williams has taken in the past because they got the opportunity to sit in on their meeting and the staff actually asked what they wanted to know, and also went over some individual drill work as well.. At some places Williams said that they would "sit you in a room and give you film and you get what you want from it". LSU was much more personal in their approach.
With 8 year staff veteran Andre Robinson taking over the defensive coordinator duties this season, Williams said taking the time to visit LSU was a no-brainer.
"For us, it's a pleasure to be able to go down to LSU and sit in. The difference with LSU, Tech, Grambling and ULM is we're not Division I. We're Division I-AA, so I don't play against LSU, and I'm not trying to be on the same level. I am trying to learn what they do, and there's no animosity there. I'm glad for the opportunity to come in and have them welcome us with open arms." Williams explained.
We have a feeling Williams left Baton Rouge feeling pretty good about the fall. As they were leaving, Les told him that he thought he had done a great job putting together a good staff that "worked hard and understood". Compliments from Les don't get much better than that.
Leach ready to hit the field for spring ball
In a matter of a few months, Mike Leach and his staff have had to put together a recruiting class, a new strength program, and install an entirely new offense and defense for the Cougars.
Starting with winter conditioning, Leach said that he was impressed with the progress that they made.
"I thought some competitive aspects emerged, you could see guys develop and be a little more competitive. You could see kind of some leaders emerge a little bit. I thought it was very good. The other thing is with regard to working hard, nobody really knows how hard they can work. Everybody can work harder than they think they can."
Leach says spring practices will be an especially tall order for them. "Every year, you want to evaluate and then, of course, sharpen your skills. In our case, we have to install our package and teach it to everybody. This isn't going to be a case where you teach it to some and then you've got the older guys to help. In our case, we've got to teach it to everybody."
Mike Stoops enjoying being on the field again
After eight seasons as a head coach, Mike Stoops is transitioning back to the life of an assistant...and enjoying the change.
Since being back at Oklahoma, Mike said he went out to the first few practices thinking like a head coach. "It took me a couple of days to realize I wasn't the head coach" he said, "I realized pretty quick I wasn't."
Coach Stoops went on to say that he now has time to enjoy the "personal" side of things more now and being a head coach allowed him to learn a ton.
"I learned so much. I have so much more grasp of college football and the overall operation. I understand what a head coach goes through." he added.
Pac 12 Tour - Stanford
Stanford is a special place. Visit campus and you'll see and feel what I mean.
After having lunch at the 49ers facility, Mike and I arrived at Stanford's campus about 30 minutes before our projected time so we drove around campus a bit. I'm having a hard time finding the words to explain how nice Stanford University is. The campus is huge and it's immaculate. With total undergraduate enrollment of less than 7,000 students, Stanford must have the best ratio of faculty to students anywhere.
Quick side note, Mike (@OT_Software) is a bit of a software geek. As we drove around campus, multiple times he sensed the brilliance of a student walking nearby and seriously considered offering them a job on the spot. Yes, he was in software coder heaven...and he was happy.
At 2pm on the nose Stanford assistant athletic director for football operations Matt Doyle met us and brought us in to see the place. First stop was the coaches offices. Head coach David Shaw and several of the assistants (along with a couple of the players) were watching the last few minutes of one of the basketball games that day. All of the coaches were extremely welcoming and hospitable. Shaw was a great choice to replace Jim Harbaugh as head coach and he has made a number of equally impressive personnel decisions...and the results continue to show up on the field. We'll write more on this topic in the coming weeks, but there is no doubt in our mind that coach Shaw and his staff will keep Stanford football at the highest level for a long time to come.
First stop on the tour was down to the weight room where I had the opportunity to present head strength coach Shannon Turley with his award (2011 FootballScoop Strength & Conditioning Coach of the Year).
Doyle then brought us over to see the stadium. In the tunnel, Stanford has some very cool graphics.
The stadium itself is as picturesque as you would expect. Inside the appearance is crisp, clean and has a very classic feel to it. New grass will go in this Summer.
The training table and dining options at Stanford are excellent and blend well with rest of the student population. Next we had the opportunity to visit the training / medical facilities. These are truly world class and both in terms of injury prevention and in rehabilitation the treatment at Stanford is top notch.
We continued the tour of campus and were consistently impressed with the people we met, the facilities we saw, student life in general at Stanford and everything we learned about the Univeristy. Anyone who has the opportunity to go to Stanford needs to take that visit. When visiting the world famous Stanford business school we noticed a familiar name from our trip...Phil Knight (who earned an MBA from Stanford) has an entire program, and several buildings, named after him.
We headed back to the football offices as running backs coach / recruiting coordinator Mike Sanford Jr. had asked Mike to demo their software apps for him. As they were sitting down I noticed tight ends coach Ron Crook teaching his son a sweet post route down on the basketball court within their offices. The kid has a future in the game!
I sat in on a few minutes of the idea session raging between Sanford and Mike with OT. Some of the things that Sanford and their staff are doing in terms of recruiting are incredibly smart...things I haven't heard of other programs doing. These guys are smart. This is Stanford. We'll write more about this subject over the next few weeks as well.
With Stanford being located in tech-mecca Palo Alto (yes, Mike had us drive by the headquarters of Facebook, Google, Apple, etc...he said something about he and I becoming smarter simply though osmosis) real estate is extremely expensive. About a year ago, the University built a number of homes on campus for their coaches to live in (coaches of all sports). 7 current assistants live in these homes which are very nice new construction. I believe the head coach and two coordinators livd in off campus homes the university purchased as well. All of this was made economically feasible through a donation from one man, John Arrillaga who has generously supported Stanford athletics and the University for many years and for several projects.
We were invited to join a couple of the coaches at their homes and saw a vibrant mini-community filled with coaches and their families. No doubt this type of idea comes with a significant price tag, but every coach we spoke with raved about the homes and how much they enjoy living so close to so many of their peers. We think this is a great idea.
We went out to dinner Friday night with Doyle and several of the coaches and couldn't have had a better night. Huge thanks to Mike Bloomgren and Mike Sanford and their wives and children for opening their homes to us and to Matt Doyle for taking time away from his previously scheduled speaking engagement to host us.
Thousands of high school students and their parents dream of getting accepted to Stanford University. After meeting Coach Shaw and his staff and experiencing 24 hours at Stanford, it's hard to imagine that there aren't also thousands of coaches out there that dream to one day have the opportunity to join the staff here as well. Amazing place.
We'll write more about our visit to Stanford and some of the unique things they are doing over the coming weeks. We've got visits with UCLA and USC on Monday. Stay tuned for for more reports on our Pac 12 Tour on the site and on twitter @FootballScoop.

Anelka's own goal: what to do if employees damage your business
24 January 2014
Minutes of a meeting between Tom Henderson and Jack Pratchard at the Firm.
Pratchard: Oh Tom, look. I've got an email saying "I love you". Who could that be from? Oh no. My computer's gone all funny.
Henderson: For the last time Jack, stop opening them. It's a virus and it's already cost the legal profession billions of pounds. I find it hard to believe we've all allowed this bug to spread so rapidly. I mean, who in their right mind would have sent their lawyer an email saying "I love you"? Thank god the message didn't read "I hate you" or "How much?" We'd all have opened that without thinking anything was amiss. Luckily for us the virus worked by emailing itself to everyone in our address book - namely clients. But as all our clients mine quarries we were somewhat insulated. A virus that killed carrier pigeons - now that would have been carnage.
Pratchard: Oh look, Tom. An email saying "I love you". I wonder who that's from. Oh no, my computer's gone all funny again.
Henderson: Sweet baby Jesus! I've been looking into this virus problem. There's lots more coming. "I love you" started in the Philippines. There's a Thailand one called "Me love you long time" and even one originating in the UKcalled "I'm very fond of you but to speak of love is somewhat premature as I've yet to even proposition your father."
Pratchard: We must form a working party across the City to safeguard our systems against this menace.
Henderson: Yes. And maybe no. As you know I employ Kip, my Filipino manservant.
Pratchard: The one on the management board.
Henderson: That's the fellow. Anyway, he's got a few a contacts in the homeland and he put me in touch with little Kwan Chi here. He's only 12.
Pratchard: What did you do Tom? Adopt him?
Henderson: No, I've made him the head of the Firm's ITdepartment.
Pratchard: He should be able to stop all the viruses then.
Henderson: Yes. And perhaps start them as well. After our abortive attempt to destroy our rivals during the May Day riots I thought a more subtle approach was needed. Kwan Chi here can create a virus that destroys law firms but leaves all other systems intact. It sends a simple email to a partner which they simply have to open.
Pratchard: How do you manage that?
Henderson: It says: "We're a US firm eager to expand in your field of excellence" - Kerching! Once opened the virus scans the partner's personal files, discovers how much they earn and emails the information to all the other lawyers in London. The result will be apocalyptic.
Pratchard: And this will affect everyone.
Henderson: Not us, because we know about it. And obviously not Masons as the virus is too complex for their ZX Spectrum-based system. It was only saved from "I love you" because it struck on Monday - it takes until Wednesday of every week to warm up its machines. So, Kwan Chi, release the bug and let mayhem commence.
Pratchard: Oh Tom look, I've got an email from a US firm wanting to specialise in Slag disposal law. This could be worth a load of money.
Henderson: No Jack!
Pratchard: My god Tom. This says you earn three times more than me. You thieving bastard - Oh look, the entire system has crashed across London.
Henderson: I worried about this. Either the virus reached Slaughter and May and couldn't cope with numbers that big, or reached Davies Arnold Cooper and had trouble dealing with fractions.

Background: The transient and generally nonfatal nature of unstable angina has impaired the accumulation of pathologic data and the definition of the pathoanatomy of this syndrome.Methods: Atherectomy specimens from patients enrolled in CAVEAT were examined for the presence of thrombus, foam cells, cholesterol clefts, media, and adventitia. Comparison of the pathologic findings was made according to clinical presentation in the following categories: stable angina, unstable angina, and recent myocardial infarction.Results: Patients with unstable angina had a slightly higher incidence of thrombus when compared with patients presenting with stable angina (36% vs. 26%, p = .14). Within the unstable angina population some subgroups demonstrated a greater incidence of thrombus, including those whose pain was associated with ECG changes (43%, p =.06) or occurred after myocardial infarction (42%, p = .07). The incidence of thrombus was highest among patients who had a myocardial infarction within 30 days (53%, p =.004) or within 14 days (58%, p=.003). No difference between the patient groups was detected with respect to the other histologie findings.Conclusions: Atherectomy specimens from patients with unstable angina demonstrated a trend toward increasing incidence of thrombus, but this trend did not achieve statistical significance. Specimens from patients with a recent myocardial infarction did not demonstrate a significant increase in the presence of thrombus. While thrombus is a component of the pathophysiology of unstable angina in a significant number of patients, continued study is required to determine the other factors that are responsible.

Hold on to your Manolos, because Carrie Bradshaw and Charlotte York Goldenblatt reunited last night at a gay bar in New York City West Hollywood.
After attending an amfAR benefit earlier in the evening, "Sex and the City" fashionistas Sarah Jessica Parker and Kristin Davis hit up the ever popular Abbey for some late night cosmos and girl talk surrounded by some of their biggest fans.
It's good to see there are no hard feelings after that whole "SATC 2" fiasco.
Huh? Why would SATC 2's flop cause hard feelings between these two? Seriously, the point is to write interesting items, not to get pixels on the page for the sake of themselves.
When is SJP gonna change that god-awful two-tone hair weave? For a supposed "style icon" her hair looks c.1995.
hollywood loves the gays.good for pr.yet behind closed doors im sure they use the word ***got and what not.but dont hesitate to call someone a homophobe for doing the same thing
No wonder they spent a whole series and two movies shooting around SJP's hands. She has the hands of a construction worker. Face is not much better.
Oh great! Just we all want to read about....2 high maintenance pain is the a$$es. Horrible self pity creepy women.
I loved Sex and the City and I love these two they were absolutely great in their roles as single women in NYC, I don't understand all the negative comments about these women..

Love the style and comfort. Not a problem steaming it after washing, but I'm sure not happy with the worn and pilled look it has after only a few wears! I expected much better quality from this line.

Nice, But.......
By J.W.
from Midhurst
This top is very pretty, but when I received it it has a million wrinkles in it.The question is do I want to spend an hour trying to steam all of the wrinkles out of it, then am I going to have to do that all over again when I wash it. Not sure what I am going to do. I would really like to hear some other reviews.

Hotel Alpenruh
Travel Blogs from M�rren
Beautiful Switzerland!
We decided to stay our last 3 nights in the alps in the small village of Murren. It lies above the valley floor of Lauterbrunen. Many hang gliders came with their huge back packs and ran off the high ledge of Murren. Look closely and you will see the man in the middle of the picture and his yellow kite at the top of the picture.
Our Hotel …
To Murren and the Jungfraujoch the top of Europe!
We left Lausanne about noon for the 3-hour train ride to Bernese Oberland and Murren. We took regular rail, then a gondola and finally this "little train that could" up to the small, hilltop village of Murren. The weather was wonderful. VERY cold but at least there was no wind. The views as we went higher and higher were awe inspiring.
Day of Hiking in the Alps
Greetings! Switzerland has been so kind to us with another great day so we decided to extend our stay one more day to make sure we experienced it all. Today we took a hike, down the mountain: Murren to Gimmelwald to Stechelberg, and wandered along the river to the gondola station where we caught a bus to Trummelbach Falls. The hike was amazing! …
Our first day in Switzerland
Good morning from the Swiss Alps! What a stunning morning. We opened the blinds at 7am this morning to the towering Swiss Alps, with freshly covered snow atop these extremely steep beauties. The sun was just awakening in Alpenglow splendor when Laurie urged Ryan to take a peek out the picturesque window from the B&B. The look on Ryan's face was …

A slightly improved version of Flip. Heck yea, I'll take it
What do you guys think? Im thrilled!
A slightly improved version of Flip. Heck yea, I'll take it
This is a smart move. Waited to make sure the finger was healed before signing. Dont want to spend the money and then the finger have complications. Smart move.
That's a great pickup if he's healthy.
Zero-Sum Game
Why sign him? He can't be on the playoff roster can he? Or can he since he was released before March 1? Decent pickup though...Gives you a veteran guard, just worried Henderson may losing playing time :-(
I would've liked this move more 2 weeks ago. I was concerned about our ability to score off the bench when we were struggling right after the all-star break...
But, since we started winning, it's not as much of a concern now. DJ has stepped it up and has found his stride again... He's back to his old self and is scoring at will for the most part. He's got his confidence back. Hendo's been getting minutes and has been looking good in them, so I hate for him to lose them.
IDK if I like the timing of it and taking minutes away from DJ and Hendo, but I understand LB's logic, I just don't like the timing.
i still hate Larry Hughes, but if it means I'll never have to see Stephen Graham again and Jackson will be able to get a few more minutes of rest per game coming up on the playoffs, i guess its alright. Though I'm sure this means Henderson is back on the bench for good, which is unfortunate
So, can he or can't he play in the playoffs?
I'm glad we signed him though, hopefully he's healthy soon.

I'm willing to wait and hope this person is right, that good news is on the way!!!

We can snuff out the new coach possibilities by starting threads - just home in on someone like Stoops or Fullmer or Gill and then watch the denials fly. Get a denial similar to what Gene told JP. Oh yes, most coach types tell the truth. Gene, Houston Nutt, Saban, and others are a small group of good old boys who go where they think the sun is shining.

Theodore Roosevelt "Hound Dog" Taylor[2] (April 12, 1915 - December 17, 1975)[3] was an American Chicago blues guitarist and singer.[1]
Taylor was born in Natchez, Mississippi in 1915 (although some sources say 1917). He originally played piano, but began playing guitar when he was 20. He moved to Chicago in 1942.
He became a full-time musician around 1957 but remained unknown outside of the Chicago area where he played small clubs in the black neighborhoods and also at the open-air Maxwell Street Market. He was known for his electrified slide guitar playing roughly styled after that of Elmore James, his cheap Japanese Teisco guitars, and his raucous boogie beats. He was also famed among guitar players for having six fingers on his left hand.[4]
After hearing Taylor with his band, the HouseRockers (Brewer Phillips on second guitar and Ted Harvey on drums) in 1970 at Florence's Lounge on Chicago's South Side, Bruce Iglauer - at the time a shipping clerk for Delmark Records - tried to get him signed by his employer.[2] Having no success getting Delmark to sign Taylor, Iglauer formed a small record label with a $2500 inheritance and recorded Taylor's debut album, Hound Dog Taylor and the HouseRockers, on his fledgling Alligator Records in 1971.[2] It was the first release on Alligator, now a major blues label.[3] It was recorded in a studio in just two nights. Iglauer began managing and booking the band, which toured nationwide and performed with Muddy Waters and Big Mama Thornton.[citation needed] The band became particularly popular in the Boston area, where Taylor inspired a young protégé named George Thorogood. A live album Live At Joe's Place documented a Boston appearance from 1972.
Their second release, Natural Boogie, was recorded in late 1973, and led to greater acclaim and touring. In 1975, Taylor and his band toured Australia and New Zealand with Freddie King and Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. His third Alligator album, Beware of the Dog, was recorded live in 1974 but was only released after his death.[3] More posthumous releases occurred as well, including Genuine Houserocking Music and Release the Hound, on the Alligator label as well as some bootleg live recordings.
Taylor died of lung cancer in 1975, and was buried in Restvale Cemetery in Alsip, Illinois.[5][6]
Taylor was posthumously inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 1984.[citation needed]
George Thorogood dedicated "The Sky Is Crying" (song 9) to "the memory of the late great Hound Dog Taylor" on his Live album (EMI America CDP 7 46329 2).

The bloodlands of eastern Europe had in the 20th century millions of their ordinary citizens killed from all ethnic communities, be they largely Ukrainians, Jews, Poles, Byelarusians but also Balts, Czechs, Slovaks, Romanians and others. The killings were initiated by the actions of Soviet communist and Nazi German invaders, within their own State territories in the 1930s but primarily in what was pre-war multi-ethnic Poland, which they invaded in September 1939 and a little later in the Baltic States, subsequently in the western Soviet Union (Belarus and eastern Ukraine).
Western Ukrainian nationalists hoped for an independent Ukrainian ethnically cleased homogenous State, initially under German auspices. And they were allowed to start their killing campaign in Volyn in 1943 whilst it was under German control, with then limited self-defence reprisals by local Poles. The first exterminations were earlier those of the local Jewish communities, where the Germans were aided by Ukrainian auxilliaries. The arrival of the Red Army in 1944 largely put a stop to the killings by UPA/OUN-B but also triggered revenge killings on Ukrainians. The numbers of killed on all sides in 1939-45 go into the millions in what was a very brutal, murderous and highly complex ethnic inter-community war which had been started by Moscow and Berlin in 1939.
The Soviet led forced deportations, repatriations and division by forced migration of this eastern european ethnic cocktail essentially by 1949 physically calmed the local situation but has left bitter memories. Ethnic cleansing and genocide are the dominant descriptions of what happened. That current regional politics are still affected should be not be at all surprising given that everything was "frozen" until the fall of communist rule in 1989-91. Ukraine itself is heavily divided between its western nationalist Ukrainian speaking part (largely ex-Polish State territory)and the central-eastern Russian dominant part which experienced Moscow's rule from the Tsars to 1992.
Whether Ukraine really wishes to be integrated with and into the EU is a seperate matter. I would not be at all surprised if the central- eastern Ukraine feels closer to "Mother Russia", the more so that it has been under Moscow's rule since the 1650s, whereas smaller western Ukraine would, given its historical connections, opt for the EU. The decisions are made in Kiev and the current administration is from the Russian-speaking part of the Ukraine. I think that its leaders prefer to "sit on the fence" and play the EU off against Moscow.They have little or no personal interest in EU integration as they would be unable to continue their all too often criminal ways once under Brussels' audit supervision. For Poland, the issue is quite different as an independent Ukraine closely associated or even integrated with the EU acts as a blocking guarantee on Russian imperial ambitions and expansion. If an independent Ukraine disintegrates the real winner will be Moscow.

It would be a heck of a lot easier if you could persuade yourself to put a paragraph break where the image is to go.
My eyes glazed over at all that code. Did you try defining a floated span with width = 100% and plopping the image into that?
This worked in six out of six browsers, including-- incredibly-- my prehistoric version of MSIE* for Mac that I've only lately discovered will still run. The image is a 300x300 box made for testing purposes. Didn't try it in a proper document with DTD and all the fixins, just typed in some blahblah and saved with html extension. I hope this is not one of those cases where doing it right makes the thing not work ;)

blah blah blah blah blah {add a bunch more text here}

blah blah blah {and more here}

* Well, sort of. It started the span at-- I assume-- the exact point I declared it, instead of going to the end of the line of blahblah before breaking for the image.

Wheldon Eyes $5 million, Will Race In Kentucky
INDIANAPOLIS - Two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon will race this weekend at Kentucky Speedway as a warmup for his bid to win $5 million in the IndyCar season finale.
Wheldon will drive for Sam Schmidt Motorsports in both Sunday's race at Kentucky and the Oct. 16 finale at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. He will replace Alex Tagliani at Kentucky.
Wheldon is the only driver participating in IndyCar's season-ending promotion, the GoDaddy Challenge. Should Wheldon win the race at Las Vegas, he and his team will split the $5 million prize with a fan yet to be chosen.
Wheldon could win at both Kentucky and Las Vegas. He has 14 career victories on ovals, and trails only three-time series champion Sam Hornish Jr. in oval victories.

Demand for and productivity analysis of Turkish public theater
We estimate a demand function for live theater provided by the General Directorate of State Theaters in Turkey. We show that demand is more elastic in less developed cities, that attendance is not significantly affected by various qualitative variables, and that the government's practice of offering free passes to government officials is an ineffective way of increasing paid attendance. Comedies and musicals both show significantly higher attendance. Having a Turkish author does not significantly affect attendance. Having a known author significantly increases attendance for more developed cities but not for less developed cities. Being the opening season significantly reduces attendance in less developed cities but has no effect in more developed cities. We also present evidence of inefficiency in state theaters in Turkey through a performance of plays equation in which we evaluate the determinants of the number of performances per play.

Chiang Mai Thai Restaurant
Minneapolis, MN 55408
City Pages' Description
Hidden in the back of Calhoun Square, Chiang Mai Thai is one of the least likely of all possible restaurants: a stylish, contemporary northern-Thai spice rainbow featuring a wine list to make California collectors swoon. This treat is the product of owner Charles Lodge, who believes that his big-volume restaurant may as well also provide a playground for everyday people who don't ordinarily get to play in the wine big leagues. What to pair with your big-deal wine? Very reliable, boldly flavored, big and plain country Thai cooking, mainly. Of course, you can also get an $9 pad thai with your beer. Whatever your poison, Chiang Mai's odd combination of crowd-pleasing food and connoisseur-pleasing beverage has resulted in a hopping time for all.
Member Reviews
Excellent food and great 10 pm Happy Hour
Chiang Mai Thai. I love there food. Great place to have Thai food, hang with friends and have some beers.
Mmmm... best Red Curry... has sweet potatoes and yams and potatoes?
Tips from foursquare
Taking cues from the Big Apple, Chiang Mai Thai offers delivery by bike daily.
Good app here: sweet dried beef. Good flavor!
order the sweet green curry with tofu or chicken and a Phuckit Sunset to wash it down
Throw down Khao Cadeukadeek with spicy Sri Racha sauce and sweet Hoisin sauce. Don't forget to get order it on the hottest level.
Go to Chiang Mai Thai and try the Pad Thai or Curry

Travel Blogs from Naha
Day 6 & 7 -- Tour in lime green (Part 3-the end)
... were 2 presenters trying the food and giving comments. (Erm, in japanese so I can't really understand what they say haha!! But from their facial expressions, I could guess?)
"It must be very good then!!!
Since the locals recommend it too!!"
Without much thought, I ordered the sashimi ...
Day 4 -- Escape from typhoon again!!
... At the end, she was very kind, said okay okay and let us use the room til 3pm.
Showered and lunch.
We checked out earlier anyway so that they can clean the room.
Still got 4 hours til the ferry back to Naha.
We found a cafe with free wifi so we sat down and just "hea" (which means just chill and relax). I ordered a pinapple juice and my boyfriend ordered a coffee. ...
Day 3 -- Zamami blue
... to do. Too late. We arrived our first dive point.
Pressed the deflator and down we go.
The water was so blue. Like sky blue. The underwater world is a little different from Cebu. Here the water was warm, the seabed was shallow like 10-20m only, maybe that's why the water looked sky blue because the light can be reflected easily.
Visibility of the water was very high, like ...
Day 2 (PM) -- Cycling... was... fun??!!
... is away from the city Naha, a lot of the locals here cannot speak English. We tried all sorts of body language that we could possibly use and literally just point to pictures and order.
"I hope it tastes good."
Food arrived and was too hungry to take any photos.
(Oops :P)
Filled up our tummies with yummy food and we are all energized to do some cycling!! ...
Day 2 (AM) -- Little adventure to Zamami
... br> We arrived in Naha Tomari Port.
Here there are also other ferries going to other islands. For going to Zamami, there are 2 ferries - one fast (50 mins) and one slow (2 hours). You have to, I mean HAVE TO, call to book in order to get yourself a place on the fast boat. We called like 2 months before and it was full already for the departing one. So we had to take ...

Of all the imaging radars that have been or are in orbit about the Earth, SIR-C/X-SAR is the only one that is multi-frequency and multi-polarization. This added capability is comparable to the advance from black and white to color pictures. With these different channels of data, we may create color radar images. For instance, here is how we created a color image of the Kliuchevskoi Volcano in Russia.
With this in mind, we thought we would have a Contest! The object of the contest is to make on your own computer the most interesting color image of Sunbury Pennsylvania. Of course, we provide the black and white GIF images of different channels of the radar data.
A press release image of Sunbury Pennsylvania has been released. Here is the caption.
Grand Prize Winner and Honorable Mention will get their images posted to the Imaging Radar Home Page also.
The ground pixel spacing is 50 meters.

Al are you even a pilot ? A stupid statement " a good pilot would never trust EPR for T/O " Prior to Air Florida that was the primary takeoff setting for most all airlines. Because of that acident it changed to primary N1 & N2 for T/O power settings. It has nothing to do with being good or bad. It depends on your trng. dept & SOP. Oh, by the way, don't forget American Airlines glycol truck had a mix of 85/15 water to glycol mix. There is more to this accident than you understand.
X - Air Florida Pilot
GLYN you apparently didn't read the post very carefully. If your not developing T/O power you should never go into the ground with the P/L retarded because of the gauges. I am a Pilot and an A&P who has questioned alot about many incidents including Flt 90. This business needs to talk openly about it's experiences without thinking about your "feelings".

Fluval, part of the Rolf C Hagen Company has been closely linked with the freshwater side of the hobby for many years and has only recently entered into the marine market. Having received a mail shot from Fluval I thought I'd share some of their recent product news starting with their LED lighting range. Fluval SEA Marina & Reef LED lighting incorporates six unique LED band widths and up to 692 individual LEDs, including 'essential actinic blue wavelengths and key spectral reinforcement to provide a balanced combination for optimal coral photosynthetic activity, growth and viewing'. Fluval say: 'Full coverage and uniform lighting is achieved thanks to 120° light dispersion and all lights feature switchable day and night lighting modes.' Fluval Marine & Reef lights are available in three lengths (60, 90 and 120cm), each with extendable brackets enabling them to mount on any aquarium straight out of the box. Additional suspension and mounting options are also available. A 156 LED nano light is also available with mounting bracket to easily attach to most small aquariums. I will be meeting the UK marketing manager shortly to get my hands on some of Fluval's products and look forward to seeing them 'in the flesh' and I must say it is nice to welcome another brand to the marine hobby.

"I don't mind," Rick replied to Calvin before turning to look back at Lancelot. "My name's Rick, I'm not much when it comes to finding stuff but if you need someone to be the muscle I'm the Pokemon you're looking for," he replied with a nod.
Ares gave Galahad an inquisitive look. It was almost as if their leader knew exactly what Ares had in mind for the day. The Lucario wished to explore the base and see for himself exactly what he had signed up for.

My FF.net profile~*~My new anime fic!~*~My Fanclub
I am an official member of the Official Bulbagarden Trading Whitelist.
Rexigun walked calmly up to the guards at the Omega base. He made sure to avoid the hole in the ground and bowed slightly to the guards. His grin was soft and comforting. "I am Rexigun, one of the new recruits for Team Omega. Is it the ladder there or this hole that leads to where I am supposed to go?"
Larka quietly walked toward the base of her new team, whispering something indistinguishable to herself. She paused every once in a while to look around and scent the air. She observed everything she could, but all she heard was the soft sound of her paws hitting the grass. She reached the entrance to the base of her new team, at the bottom of the tallest tower for miles. Larka glanced up at the tower's vast height, then walked into the base, somewhat eager to meet her new team.
Blaze walked into the Alpha tower. He confidently said "Is anyone here?"
"Nope, just a bunch of dead pokemon," Moon jokes, looking around the area.
Larka turned and looked at the two Pokemon behind her that had just yelled. "I don't know," the Houndoom said softly, "but I smell Pokemon here." She wrinkled her muzzle for a second. "Ugh, a fighting type."
Recap plz?
OOC: You haven't missed much, Bayleef. Just characters entering the bases, and introductions.
The two guards looked at Rexigun. "Some idiotic Excadrill made that," the Houndoom said, pointing at the tunnel. "I dunno where it leads. You'd be better off using the ladder.
Lancelot snapped his fingers, and a Dusknoir melted right out of the ground, appearing right next to the Bisharp. "Nero. These are the new recruits," Lancelot said, pointing at the group assembled there. "Show them around for a while. I would do it myself, but I have more pressing matters to attend to." With that, he walked off through another door, disappearing from view.
The Dusknoir, Nero, sized up the group of Pokemon. "Quite a diverse set we've got," he said. "Follow me, and make sure you keep up. It's quite easy to get lost around here. But before we get going, there are a few things I wanted to point out to you in particular. First off, don't do any future tunneling without the boss's permission. After that incident, I don't think he would take any future attempts with as much lenience."
Marek gave a sheepish shrug.
"Secondly, don't go swiping anything," Nero said with a pointed glare at Lapis. "Well, that is to say, don't steal anything that's here. What's here, stays here."
"And thirdly, although the boss doesn't mind if you fight every now and then, using lethal force will get you in huge trouble. And I mean huge. The last guy who tried something like that...hm...I think he was buried alive somewhere around here. I don't even remember."
"Now, I know that Lancelot may come off as a bit of a jerk. And, in a way, he kind of is. But you gotta remember that he has to keep this whole thing afloat. We're not official, and if word gets out about the stuff we're doing, the law's gonna come down, and it's gonna come down hard. If you lot got all of that, let the tour begin."
With that said and done, Nero floated off, Marek quick to follow. That whole speech didn't have too much of an effect on him. And, really, did he ever follow the rules? Ever?
Venom raised an eyebrow at Moon's remark. "Quite the jester, aren't you?" he said, his tone more curious than apprehensive. "You always like this?"
Meanwhile, Galahad walked off, heading up one of the spiraling staircases. These Pokemon were going to accomplish great things. His instinct rarely failed, and this time he was absolutely certain of it.
Rexigun bowed again to the guards and descended the ladder. He took his time examining the base and learning its layout. He was familiar with the base as he had in fact already been here once before, but the business involved kept him from examining the surroundings. He noted few Pokemon around, though none of them seemed very friendly to him. As far as Scrafty were concerned, Rexigun was weak looking. His frayed crest seemed to signal to all that he was a weakling, but he walked through the base as though he didn't have anything to worry about at all.
It didn't take long for Rexigun to notice that there didn't seem to be any other new recruits around. His information prior to coming here had indicated that Omega was looking for recruits. Rexigun paused at an intersection to ponder what he was expected to do.
Flynn hovered around the main room of the tower where the other recruits had gathered, looking at the architecture of the building. "I wonder what we're going to do first?" he thought.

Jennifer Aniston: I Can't Stop Loving Brad Pitt!
by Free Britney at .A week after the Jason Trawick-Britney Spears abuse scandal garnered great publicity but was quickly denounced as bogus by the star's camp (and forensic voice experts), Star Magazine is returning to its tabloid bread and butter:
Years have passed, but bogus feelings and heartbreak remain.
It's been half a decade since Brad ditched her for the voluptuous sexual being known as Angelina Jolie, and Jen has had several long-term relationships since.
Why let that get in the way of headlines that work, though!?
The angle this week is Jen confessing her feelings to BFF Chelsea Handler, which likely sparked the recent anti-Jolie tirade for which she's not sorry, BTW.
Hey, what are friends for? Chelsea's gotta stick up for her girl. Kinda surprising she still feels so strongly after Brad nailed a Jen lookalike, but whatever.

I hope all you Jen and Chelsea haters keep stirring the pot. Chelsea is not one to be fooled around with. I hope she gets some new material on Angie, as she put it, and then rips her a new ars hole. Even the women on the view agreed with Chelsea. They all said it was comedy and comedians should be able to say whatever they wish. Whoopie even called Chelsea a very great comedian. Take that Angie, and shove it. More to come from Chelsea.

Ticket #2218 enhancement closed fixed
Add timeout to XMPP IQ requests

XMPP <iq/> stanzas are designed to have request-response behaviour. The current implementation of t.w.p.j.xmlstream.IQ has a send() method that returns a deferred which fires when a response has been received.
However, if for some reason the other party is too slow or unable to respond, it is desirable to have those deferreds fire with a failure that indicates no response has been received within a configured time period.
Note that the current implementation already fires the deferreds of all pending requests when the XML stream connection has been lost.
