I've noticed that many of the forum discussions that TA has tweeted lately have contained glaring grammatical and spelling errors. I find this disappointing and even personally embarrassing as it inevitably reflects not only on the original poster but on the forum as a whole and, by extension, the larger atheist community. I know written communication isn't everything, and it certainly isn't a high priority among the public generally, but we should try to meet a higher standard. Given the unlikelihood that individual posters will suddenly take more care when writing, I think the operators of the site's Twitter feed should consider not tweeting discussion titles with serious errors.
That's one poster's opinion, for whatever it's worth.
I believe in an America where millions of Americans believe in an America that's the America millions of Americans believe in. That's the America I love.

What more can one say - 'That's all Folks'.
Without shifting my seat, I can reach my Webster's Dictionary and my Webster's Thesaurus. "He who knows and knows he knows is wise, follow him."
Actually, upon further thought, I've yet to agree with more than two or three of any of your comments. I find them to be highly critical the vast majority of the time. In fact, I'm reminded of the poem, or prose - depending on your viewpoint - of Dorothy Law Nolte, who wrote, "Children Learn What They Live," and in which she said, "If children live with criticism, they learn to condemn." Words to live by --
Oh, come on. Don't exaggerate...or quote an exaggerator. Yes, if a child is subjected to constant criticism it will warp his personality, but so will never receiving criticism. That will prevent him from learning that some criticism is good and worth listening to.

9. Omaha, Nebraska (2011: #8)
Home of the amazing Omaha Zoo with the largest indoor rainforest in the U.S., Omaha is brimming with kid-friendly activities including the Omaha Summer Arts Festival which features a children's fair with crafts, music and dancing. But this little city in the Midwest offers more than just fun, it provides a family centered lifestyle. "There are good lifestyle options for whatever fits your family's spirit," says event planner Heidi Walz who works with Vic Gutman & Associates in Omaha where she was born and raised. "There are beautiful condos and lofts downtown, major redevelopment in midtown or newer homes in the suburbs of West Omaha. There's something for everyone." One of her son's favorite activities is helping pick out ingredients for dinner at the Omaha Farmers' Market. "I think it's a great place for a working parent," explains Walz. "Commute time is minimal no matter which direction you live or work which means more family time."

You people should realize that getting onto the first page isn't such an achievement.
OT: This one was quite challenge ... well, it is morning after all.
too long..
This study appears in Raymon Edwards book Practic Chess.
But you must admit that THIS is an achievement... :)
This isn't really a puzzle, more like opening knowledge and preparation. It's the Tarrash trap in the Steinitz variation of the Ruy Lopez where black's last move was 7... 0-0?
YES and according to legend it took the good Doctor about 4 minutes to invent it vs Marco OTB in 1892
don't get it
took me too long, 15 minutes
Be more positive - it took you 4x as long as it did a world-class GM, but you did get it. Probably the only reason I "got it" was because I've seen it before
He didn't really invent it OTB though, cause he already published it a year earlier."Tarrasch published analysis of this trap in 1891, but 18 months later Georg Marco fell into it in Tarrasch versus MarcoDresden 1892.[1] Tarrasch spent just 5 minutes of thinking for the whole game." So no one really knows how long it really took him to analyze the whole line.
"...Long Calculation..." ??? .... no, it's totally a game
...should have put it in the game of the day.
That is one of the most amazing opening traps!
Basically a whole game...
Nice and long, great stuff
lenghty...but gud one....
Too obscure for me!
first for first
Could anyone explain why white cant retake on e4 with the rook on move 6?
(5. ... Nxe4 6. Rxe4)
6...Rd1+ and you'll get mated!

Have you made this pattern?
Share with the Craftsy community.
I needed to make a few quick items for Christmas presents and in New Jersey where the winters can be tricky, what better to give then a cowl. Many people don't want the length and bulkiness of a scarf and this is a great alternative.
This is a perfect item for a cable stitch beginner. It looks much more complicated than it is and it really knits up very quickly. Given as a gift, the recipient will think you spent much more time on this than you actually did.
28 sts and 19 rows = 4"/10 cm in Cable Stitch
I have been crafting for almost 50 years, which includes knitting, crocheting and sewing. Any craft I can do with my hands has given me joy. I have always played with designing even as a child, but have seriously devoted time to knit design the last 5 years. I knit and sew for my 3 children (now grown) and my 5 grandchildren.

PAWTUCKET -- For the second straight offseason, the Pawtucket Red Sox have made the call to the Double-A Texas League to fill a vacancy in their broadcast booth.
The PawSox announced Wednesday that Jeff Levering will take over for the departed Aaron Goldsmith behind the microphone for the 12-station PawSox Radio Network. Levering spent the last three seasons broadcasting games for the Springfield Cardinals, the Double-A affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals. Before that, Levering spent three seasons as the director of broadcasting and media relations for the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes, the High-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.
Goldsmith was hired by the Seattle Mariners in January after his first and only season with the PawSox. Before that, Goldsmith had called game for the Double-A Frisco RoughRiders. He became only the latest in a long line of PawSox broadcasters to get the call to the big leagues -- among them NESN's Don Orsillo and, more recently, Cincinnati Bengals voice Dan Hoard.
Fellow broadcaster Steve Hyder resigned from the PawSox in December after nine seasons in the booth, leaving the team with two vacancies to fill. The partner who will work with Levering has not yet been selected, the PawSox said.

Competition Innovation and Carpet Cleaning
Something interesting happened to me a couple of weeks ago. My friend and fellow NCCA member, Jim, called and asked me to help. He wanted me to talk to his nephew, about becoming a carpet cleaner. Phil Brown (aka the nephew…there you go Phil I promised I'd mention your name in my blog!) is keen to try his hand at his own business. He lives in Leicester so it's easy for me to pop over and give him advice, practical help and so on, basically give him the low down on how to work carpet cleaning magic for customers; how to make a tired looking sofa look fresher and newer; how to spring-clean curtains without taking them away…well I could go on (and on…).
Anyway I met up with Phil and I was (almost) speechless when he told me that Jim had asked no fewer than 3 other NCCA members to help Phil with his business planning. Apparently 2 of them had complained that this was unfair competition and they didn't want other carpet cleaners to know their secrets… and the 3rd said he was considering putting in 'an official complaint' to the NCCA.
Incredible, but true and also very short-sighted.
It reminds me of a discussion I had some years back at a networking event. I was promoting the idea of sharing good practice across an industry as a proven method of creating higher standards and even a major factor in industry innovation. Yes, there was dissension and uncertainty, but most people accepted my ideas before the end of the evening.
My thoughts were like this:
if there are more people out there cleaning more carpets…then more customers are going to be talking about getting carpets cleaned… and the more popular the topic becomes, the more people will want to get their carpets cleaned too… which means we need more carpet cleaners to do the work…
Not only that, but also the more carpet cleaning that is being done, the more interest there is from inventors and developers to come up with innovations and new technology. This, incidentally, also means that the cost of buying new equipment will be driven down.
…which goes to prove my belief that competition drives innovation and makes us all better off!
So I was more than happy to spend time with Phil, getting him ready to start his carpet cleaning business and I heartily wish him good luck too.
Bring on the competition!

Carpet cleaning in Leicester, how often should I call for help?
Whilst the majority of carpet manufacturers would suggest that a deep carpet clean in domestic households is performed between every 12-18 months, a professional carpet cleaner would in fact say that this hard and fast rule is not always correct. … More

Professional carpet cleaning, how to keep landlords and tenants happy
Cleaning stair carpets is always a trying task; they are areas which face a lot of heavy feet and thus come into contact with, and trap a lot of, dirt. They are often steep and narrow too, which is never ideal when dealing with cumbersome cleaning equipment though my experience and methods ensure the job is completed to the highest of standards. … More

Keep your Leicester offices clean and welcoming with a professional carpet clean
Office spaces such as walkways and entrances take an awful beating over the space of twelve months, particularly with what the English weather throws at us. All of the mud, grit, dirt and moisture clings to the soles of our shoes and no matter how well one wipes their feet it is inevitable that the remnants of the outdoors makes it to your desk with you. … More

Carpet cleaner's diary September
Thursday – Well I did travel around today – started off in Old Dalby at an absolutely lovely apartment in an old Georgian House, cleaning the carpets. A pleasurable clean, I have to say – lovely good quality 100% wool carpets. Although the colour was a light beige they came up looking like new (due, of course, to my cleaning skills, but also because good quality always shines through). But I'm digressing – later on today I cleaned another apartment in a Georgian House just outside Loughborough for the same customer, because he had moved from one location to the other. Again good quality carpets, again the carpets looked as good as new and again the apartment was amazing.
Friday – BNI at Tigers ground in Leicester as usual and then we were busy with meetings after that. It does take time to be part of committees for BNI, but I'm convinced it's worth it. It helps make the BNI Chapter effective – everyone working on what we call 'giver's gain'. BNI is a referral network – we pass each other business, over £700,000 this year already. I usually get at least a job a week from my BNI contacts.
Weekend – Last weekend of the summer I think. Started off watching my oldest Grandson playing football (a real chip off the block he is too – I recognise some of his kicks & tackles from my younger days…..) Then off to a final summer BBQ on Saturday night with some of the guys from BNI (Plus partners) It's always good to catch up on the gossip. Then more fun on Sunday at the Vista 'Jazz in the Garden' event at Belvoir Castle Lodge. What a gorgeous day it was too and top marks to Anand from Vista (and BNI Tigers) for being part of a great event. Not only was it a relaxing way to spend the afternoon, but the proceeds go to a good local cause – as Vista help blind and partially sighted people in Leicestershire & Rutland.
Monday and Tuesday – Busy finishing paperwork and cleaning out my equipment. Then off to do some quotes in Loughborough. First thing Tuesday morning brought a flurry of requests for carpet cleaning from the website. I didn't think carpet cleaning would really be something people would look for online. But it looks like I was wrong about that. I see more interest every week via the website and it's surprising how many customers tell me they 'found me on Google' Of course I don't mind where people find out about The Professional Carpet Cleaner, as long as they are asking for quotes and getting carpets, upholstery, rugs and curtains cleaned I'm happy!
Wednesday – Landlord's day today it seems. A couple of urgent carpet cleans for outgoing tenants and a very particular landlord wanted all the carpets cleaned in a property in Leicester. Plus I popped in to say a quick Hello to my friends at Belvoir Lettings on Queens Road. Because I am a very small business I can be flexible around my customers, which, I guess, is one reason that Lettings Agents call on me. When there's a need for carpet cleaning ASAP, 'I'm your man' as they say.

Definition of franglais in English:
Line breaks: fran|glaisPronunciation: /ˈfrɒ̃gleɪ
- A blend of French and English, either French speech that makes excessive use of English expressions, or unidiomatic French spoken by an English person.More example sentences
- Are the people who spoke and who continue to speak forms of joual and franglais, or English, not just such ambivalent travelers, existing between languages and identities, in the split temporality of the performative?
- If the epigraph also arouses expectations that the book will play with the poetic, idiomatic and vulgar potential of dropped consonants and arty franglais, then readers are in for a treat.
- In Cornwall at least, Franco-Ontarians call it franglais and consider it a common practice of switching codes without apprehension.
1960s: coined in French, from a blend of français 'French' and anglais 'English'.

Friends of Studham Common
Thank you to Pam and John for standing in so ably for us last month.
After the hay cut on Middle Common there were fewer flowers for us to see there when we walked round on the 30th. On East Common the flowers of Cat's Ear and Autumn Hawkbit made a haze of yellow blended with some Red and White Clover and a few Meadow Buttercups.
Many of the flowers beside the concrete road on East Common were over but the yellow
flowers of Imperforate St John's-
John Hanna reports that there have been some good mushrooms and blackberries on the Common. Great to hear that people still gather the natural harvest there rather than always buying from the supermarkets. He also watched buzzards and red kites hunting over Middle Common as the hay was cut and turned.

Experiment on what is the relationship between glucose concentration and the rate of yeast respiration.
1. Research question: How does glucose concentration affect the rate of yeast respiration?
2. Hypothesis:
- Respiration of yeast is a step that yeast breaks down the glucose to make energy using oxygen [1].
- I predict the rate of yeast respiration (amount of CO2 produced) will increase as the glucose concentration (amount of sugar) increases.
- I predict this because the more sugar added to the yeast mixture (yeast and water), the more glucose will be broken down by yeast [1] and that produces carbon dioxide which stands for the sign of yeast respiration.
3. Introduction:
Yeast respiration is a very important step in food production because it can be used in producing alcoholic beverages such as beer, wine and liquor. It can be used in the bread making business in which yeast respiration can help to increase the volume of the bread, bring about higher taste quality for the products [2].
In this experiment we will examine about the relationship between glucose concentration and yeast respiration rate. To achieve this objective, all variables are kept constant whereas the glucose concentration is increased gradually. The rate of respiration is measured accordingly. In this manner, the relationship between glucose concentration and yeast respiration rate can be determined.
4. Method and Materials:
4.1. Variables:
4.1.1. Independent variable:
The amount of sugar in the yeast and water solution
- 2g
- 4g
- 6g
4.1.2. Dependent variable:
The amount of carbon dioxide gas will be produced
4.1.3. Control variables:
- The amount of time
- The temperature
- The volume of yeast
- The amount of water
- Same type of measuring cylinder
- Same type of sugar
4.2. Materials & Equipments:
Yeast (3g x 3 tests = 9g)
Sugar (12 g x 3 tests = 36 g)
Water (90ml x 3 trials = 270ml )
Funnel (x3)
Measuring cylinder (100ml type)
5. Results:
Table 1: Relationship between glucose content and rate of respiration

Graph 1: Relationship between glucose content and rate of respiration
6. Discussion and conclusion:
After the experiment, it can be seen that when the glucose concentration increases, the rate of respiration decreases. It could be because of the osmotic pressure. When the level of glucose increases, there is higher level of osmotic pressure and slows down the metabolism of the yeast therefore decreases the rate of respiration [2]. This is opposite from the hypothesis that I have at the beginning because I thought that the higher the glucose concentration, the higher the rate of the yeast respiration.
Regarding the trend in the graph, when the glucose concentration is 2gm per 35ml of water, the rate of yeast respiration is the highest. When the glucose concentration is 4gm per 35ml of water and 6gm per 35ml of water, the rate of respiration decreases.
Regarding the consistency of trial results, at 2g and 4g glucose content, there were some inconsistency in the trial results. However, at 6g glucose content, the results of rate of respiration were more consistent.

With all of the structured activities and the strictly scheduled lives that kids have these days, many kids are left without any real time to just play, which is considered a birthright by many experts.
So why is it so important to let kids play? According to the American Academy of Pediatric's Clinical Report on The Importance of Play in Promoting Healthy Child Development and Maintaining Strong Parent-Child Bonds, in addition to being important to healthy brain development, the benefits of play include:
- allowing kids to use their creativity and develop their imagination, dexterity, and other strengths
- encouraging kids to interact with the world around them
- helping kids conquer their fears and build their confidence
- teaching kids to work in groups, so they learn to share and resolve conflicts
- helping kids practice decision making skills
- that it is fun
Keep in mind that just because free play isn't controlled by adults doesn't mean that you shouldn't supervise your kids while they are playing, especially if they are playing outside.
Examples of Free Play
True free play is any kind of unstructured activity that encourages your child to use his imagination, such as playing with blocks and dolls. It wouldn't include playing with most electronic toys.A group of kids playing soccer in the backyard together, versus only playing on a team with a coach, would be another good example of free play time. This type of active free play is also a good way to help your kids meet their daily physical activity requirements.
If you are simply running from lesson to lesson and your kids are overscheduled with activities, consider cutting back a little and adding in some free play.

Top Flite, RFS expanding facilities |
A 10,000 sq. ft. expansion should be ready for Top Flight to use by late August, yet another reflection of a booming ag sector's ripple effect on the local economy.
General Manager Chris Schaffert reported this week that the outer shell of the expansion to the north of the Industrial Park facility is all but finished. Overhead doors were scheduled for installation this week, which means the extra space will be available soon. "We just needed additional space," Schaffert explained. "It will be more of a warehouse at this time for finished goods and raw materials. We also need some work area for specializing in what the customer wants." Top Flite and its sister company, Replacement Flighting Supply (RFS), have been growing steadily since launching from a shoestring staff and budget in 1980. A crew of 11 produces stacks upon stacks of twisted steel -- approximately 25 tons per day -- with the bulk of it headed for ag-related machinery. To read more, see this week's print or e-editions |

Posted September 09, 2012 on
AP on Fox
Pro Bowlers Charles Tillman and Dwight Freeney have left Sunday's game between the Indianapolis Colts and the Chicago Bears.
Freeney, one of the few holdovers on the Colts' heavily remade roster, was listed as questionable to return after injuring an ankle in the first quarter. The linebacker was hurt on the Bears' first scoring drive when he was blocked low and appeared to roll his ankle. Freeney and Robert Mathis, Pro Bowl defensive ends who were among the league's most feared pass rushers, have moved to linebacker this season as the Colts shift to a 3-4 hybrid defense.
Tillman also was hurt in the first quarter, limping off the field and appearing to favor his right leg after Indianapolis punted on its first possession. He came back for the next defensive series, but sat out the rest of the half. The Bears announced at the start of the third quarter that he would not return.

The Personal Peace Procedure
Finding Core Issues
While EFT can be useful for minor or peripheral problems, much deeper healing is possible if you assist your client or yourself in finding core issues. The events that bother us are only a problem if they resemble deeper emotional wounds. Rather than being content with using EFT on surface problems, it's worth developing the skills to find and resolve the core issues that are at the root of the problem.
Here are some questions you might ask in order to identify core issues:
Does the problem that's bothering you remind you of any events in your childhood?
Tune into your body and feel your feelings. Then travel back in time to the first time in your life you ever felt that same sensation.
What's the worst similar experience you ever had?
If you were writing your autobiography, what chapter would you prefer to delete, as though it had never happened to you?
If the client tells you they can't remember, you can ask them to simply make up a fictional event in their minds. This kind of guessing usually turns out to be right on target. They're assembling the imagined event out of components of real events, and the imaginary event usually leads them back to actual events you can tap on.

We've just returned from a mini vacation to Santa Catalina Island. It was the absolute perfect way to spend 3 days with my family and my brother and his girls. Loads of snorkeling, sitting by the beach, and playing tourist in the city of Avalon was a wonderful way to unwind for a few days.
Now back to reality~

With terrorism at an all-time high, only one group can put a stop to the bad guys: CAT, a civilian anti-terrorist organization that doesn't concern itself with political boundaries. Mariko Rosebank is one leader within CAT; haunted by the tragic loss of her family at the hands of terrorists, she's determined to take them down where they stand. After completing a quick and successful operation against the terrorist group 'Der Silbern Kavalier', Mariko and her team are summoned to protect a secret summit in Switzerland. Can the ladies protect the VIPs in the case of an attack?
The year is 2179: humans and robots have colonized Mars. A newer Third-Type robot has been designed to interact undetected in human society. That is, until a man named D'anclaude discovers their secret and starts a movement to wipe them out. Armitage is a Third-Type that works for the police with her partner Ross, and now these two must rid the planet of D'anclaude and his evil plans.
If you liked the action-packed crime fighting shenanigans of Desert Rose (and can handle cyberpunk), I'd strongly recommend checking out the far superior Armitage III. Not only does it look better and have a better story, but it's flat out better in every way.

Lots of folks in Houston don't find anything funny about the Enron scandal; Tony Award® winner and Pulitzer Prize finalist David Henry Hwang, however, found a way to weave it into his comedy Chinglish. The Broadway hit follows Daniel Cavanaugh, an American businessman to China where he hopes to snag some big sign-making contracts. (The country is reportedly rife with poorly translated signs, such as those reading ''Deformed Man's Toilet'' instead of ''Handicapped Men's Restroom.'') There are just a couple of little, tiny complications - he doesn't speak Mandarin and he doesn't understand the subtleties of Asian business practices. Oh, and he's falling in love with someone who is completely off limits to him. Hwang, the author of M. Butterfly, skillfully zeroes in on the difficulties of communicating across cultural and linguistic differences.
Jordan Jaffe, founder of Black Lab Theatre which is co-presenting the show with Asia Society Texas Center, says he's especially proud of the cast that's been assembled for this production. New York City-based Vivian Chiu, an understudy for the Broadway production and member of the international cast, plays Vice Minister Xi Yan while local actor Mike Yager is Cavanaugh. ''The entire cast is bilingual,'' Jaffe says. ''We didn't know if we were going to be able to do that and then Mike told us, 'Oh, you know I've been studying Mandarin for years, right?' That was a real break.''

The announcement last week of what has become a rare occurrence in Washington, D.C., where Republicans and Democrats actually worked together on a significant piece of legislation, has brought a barrage of positive response from virtually every corner of the renewable fuels debate.
The Senate bill offered by Sens. John Thune (R-S.D.), Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) and Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) would remove the 45 cent per gallon tax credit now paid to refineries that blend ethanol with gasoline.
It would take the money already pegged for the credit this year and put two-thirds - $1.3 billion - of it toward reducing the national debt while the other third would be made available to fund increased infrastructure for the commercial delivery of ethanol and the development of other, related biofuels.
That infrastructure would include incentives for more blender pumps capable of providing consumers with blends of ethanol in gasoline from 15 percent a! nd higher. The "small producer" tax credit would remain intact, encouraging ethanol production in plants with an annual capacity of 60 million gallons or less.
Although Thune and Klobuchar have been historical supporters of renewable fuels - ethanol in particular - having Feinstein, who has long opposed ethanol subsidies, join in the bill has likely added substance to the effort to change and reform government support for the industry.
And the idea of phasing out the so-called "blenders credit" has not been without supporters within the ethanol industry itself, although moving a portion of the money to improving delivery infrastructure has been a key factor in that support.
So far, the legislation has drawn praise, not only for its approach to restructuring of government support for the industry, but also because of the apparent cooperation between the parties, echoing a growing weariness of a political divide that has stalled progress on many legislative fronts in the Capitol.
"This bipartisan effort to find c! ommon gr ound is the kind of sensible policy making American voters desperately want from their elected leaders," Bob Dinneen, president and CEO of the Renewable Fuels Association, said in a release. "We greatly appreciate the leadership of Sens. Klobuchar and Thune in doggedly pursing a solution to this impasse.
"Walking away from investments made in America's ethanol industry cold turkey would jeopardize the future of biofuels production in America, including stifling the progress of advanced and cellulosic ethanol technologies."
Dinneen went on to say while the proposed legislation, which could take effect as soon as the end of the month, may not address all the issues facing both supporters and opponents of renewable fuels tax support, it illustrates a step in the right direction.
"This is not a perfect compromise, but it does demonstrate the willingness of American ethanol producers and advocates to do their part to address budget concerns while not sacrificing! the progress and evolution of the industry," Dinneen said. "I would challenge other industries to step up to the plate in the same manner."
The legislation is receiving similar support from other farm-related organizations such as the National Corn Growers Association, the S.D. Corn Utilization Council and the biofuels promotion group Growth Energy.
Lisa Richardson, executive director of the S.D. Corn Utilization Council, praised and congratulated the senators on their work.
"I thank Sen. Thune for his work in crafting a bipartisan path forward for the ethanol industry," Richardson said. "With the significant budgetary challenges facing our country, it is important that the ethanol industry in South Dakota have common sense polices in place to keep the biofuels industry moving forward.
"The enhanced blender pump tax credit will help give access to the marketplace and the extended small producer tax credit will help our farmer-owned plants compete ag! ainst foreign oil imports."
Those with a history of opposing gov ernment support of biofuels development were a little more tacit in their support of the legislation.
The Environmental Working Group, a Washington-based organization that bills itself as a group that "uses the power of information to protect human health and the environment," called the end of the tax credits a step in the right direction, but downplayed the overall impact of the legislation.
"Thanks to Sen. Feinstein's leadership, we are witnessing a remarkable reversal of fortune for the ethanol and corn lobbies," said Craig Cox, EWG senior vice president for agriculture and natural resources based in Ames, Iowa.
"This deal is a welcome sign that the iron grip these lobbies have had on biofuel policy is loosening," Cox said. "However, there's still a long way to go to get U.S. biofuels policy on the right track.
"We encourage lawmakers to make a clean break with corn ethanol. American taxpayers shouldn't be called upon to support this industry any longer."
