Here goes Shaefer talking out of his ass again. I like him, when it doesn't come to Canelo. Lol "Apparently", Canelo has 3 potential opponents lined up for a May 4 date. See how weird that sounds? We all know that the big time fighters get the obvious Mexican holiday weekends. Shaefer says that Canelo will wait until May, and he made it obvious that he could fight anytime before that, if he chooses. I'm not liking this at all. I mean seriously, until Canelo truly proves himself and Floyd, Manny, and Cotto, leaves the sport, he needs to be built up as the "money man" from a 2nd row standpoint, because the big 3 are still in the driver's seat area. The 3 likely opponents that they are looking at, are: 1. Mayweather 2. Martinez 3. Cotto (if he gets past Trout) I'm tired of GBP when it comes to this dude. Thoughts? |

I agree. They make it as though he's earned the right to sit and wait for opponents as if he's a legend in the sport already. They should at least put him against K9 or another plausible JMW before putting him in with the big boys. GBP is smart though, a lot of fans are buying into it. People are actually really believing the illusion that Canelo is a tested unbeatable fighter. I hope he learned from JCC Jr.'s mistake. I guarantee that Mayweather or Cotto will give him the "Sergio" and humble him quick...
If it's sergio that he fights then he gets no respect for fighting him coming offof knee surgery. They need to put him in with Lara, Kirkland, maybe even Quilin of he's willing to come down in weight. |

Dude just threw a bunch of loose ideas together and decided it was a movie, far as I can tell. I`ve read some explanations for it, but you just can`t make that complicated a concept into a movie properly, man. Then again, this is the only movie of his I`ve seen, so maybe having no idea what`s going on is an aquired taste.
There are movies that are deep and poetic, but this is too much. It was too weird to be interesting. It just became dumb even though it's not.
honestly david lynch manages to give me everything i want in a movie. i thought the film was totally amasing and visually stunning.how does he do it time and again.

CD/LP/Track Review
The Eli Degibri Quintet: In The Beginning (2004)
While In The Beginning rings with the familiar Coltrane sound, the music is delivered with thoughtful and refined performances that help to distinguish Degibri from other tenor saxophonists. It's not necessarily the sound of his horn, but more the other aspects of his style which captures attention. Soulful, poignant, and delivered with stark control, Degibri has clearly honed the finer attributes of his instrument.
The eleven compositions span a tight area of modern jazz styles. The majestic "In the Beginning" carries a pervasive undulating guitar riff as the tenor sax sings the melody. On "Painless" the rhythm section shines bright as drummer Jeff Ballard and bassist Ben Street support each soloist on the lovely ballad. For those who prefer their post bop with a new outlook, the colorful "Shoohoo" should fit the bill, with its quirky interchanges that spin off some interesting guitar, drum and sax solos.
The recording's sound quality is also a factor: the delicate nuance of each instrument's sound is captured. On the duo "On All the Things You Are," the free-flowing sound of the bass and saxophone are exquisite. Another added element is the skillful presence of notable guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel, who delivers an array of effects that enhance but never overpower the music. All things considered this is a strong and memorable debut from an emerging artist who warrants a closer listen.

Price Watch: Refurbished Magellan GPS, $59.99
Ladies and gents, we have a new low! Buy.com has the Magellan RoadMate 2200T GPS for $59.99 shipped (after a $30 mail-in rebate). It's a refurbished unit, but it's also the least-expensive navigation system I've seen yet.
Needless to say, this model is a couple years old, so don't expect a lot of bells and whistles. It does offer text-to-speech, music and photo players, an optional traffic-monitoring kit, and a "smart detour" feature. Hmmm. Come to think of it, you get some bells and whistles, after all. It's even waterproof!

FORT WORTH -- Something is rotten in the state of Sicilia.
But that's okay, because there is nothing like a slight case of misplaced vengeance to propel a good plot, as it does in Stolen Shakespeare Guild's current production of the Bard's The Winter's Tale at the Fort Worth Community Arts Center.
The story of this late play, that is an early version of what we now call a "dramedy," deals with ancient King Leontes (Alan Walker), who is the sovereign of Sicilia -- which might just as well be a galaxy far away, given how loosely the script plays with actual geography. He seems to be a well-meaning monarch but, like Othello, he allows himself to be consumed by jealousy. His green-eyed rage leads him to banish his queen, Hermione (Jessica Dahl-Colaw) and the newborn child he believes to be another's.
The consequences of these first act missteps are dire, and the second act (the play was written in five acts, but is performed in two here) is devoted to trying to put the pieces back together. The Stolen Shakespeare folks have done the audience a great service by providing a synopsis in the program that divides the plot into three distinct parts: tragedy, comedy and resolution. You might want to read just the first two sections (which will especially help you through the opaquely written first act), and then let the players surprise you with the finish.
On the whole, this play is much more about plot than Shakespeare's character-driven works, like Hamlet and Macbeth. True to its title, it has the feel of a story told to a gathering of friends around a fireplace on a chilly night. Much of the conclusion, for example, is delivered as narration from a minor character, giving it the air of someone wrapping up a really good yarn.
This production is like many others this troupe has presented. The casting is highly uneven, mixing some sharp, insightful characterizations with others that are stiff with the greenness of inexperience. The costuming, by Lauren Morgan, is stunningly good in some cases, while other outfits have a bottom-of-the-trunk look. The set is hardly a set, just some rocks scattered around the stage. Also, the lighting at Friday's opening night was erratic and distracting.
So, when you settle into your seat and start to try to understand what the heck is going on in the opening act, you initially feel like you are watching a bunch of butchers, bakers and candlestick makers wearing funny clothes and stumbling around the stage while spouting Elizabethan gibberish for no apparent reason.
And then, without ever seeing it coming, Shakespeare happens.
That is the invisible hand of directors, and company founders, Morgan and her husband Jason Morgan. The pair knows their subject so well that they routinely assemble a rag-tag bunch of eager amateurs and, while they may not always be able to teach them how to act, they are amazing in their ability to put their players in touch with the true soul of the material at hand. And, better still, they nearly always succeed in communicating that magic to the audience. In this production, for example, if you don't feel King Leontes' anguish, you must be made of stone.
There are some standout performances in the show. Eric Dobbins (Autolycus), Bryan Douglas (Antigonus), Cynthia Matthews (Paulina) and Nathan Dibben (Florizel) all deliver performances that are natural and effective. Walker is a bit miscast as Leontes, in that he lacks the regal bearing needed for the role. But even if, like me, you don't buy him as kingly, he still pulls off his character's most intense moments beautifully.
The only real disappointment in the production is that one of the players is eaten by a bear, but the mauling happens offstage. Bummer. I can't remember the last time I got to see an actor eaten by a bear.

I'm really sensing desperation here - and dare I say it(!) - MUTINY in the ranks of Top Management @ NASA! What next?! Suddenly they find an accounting error and actually find they can do Constellation for 1/2 the money - by going DIRECT(sorry couldn't resist!)!! Wouldn't surprise me now. Especially if Obama takes GAO brickbats seriously - as, if cancelletion is in mind, he'll jump at at such a nice juicy bone. Well, there's always Option 4B employing DIRECT methods! Hope yet!

Traditional food security - Sara Statham
A McGill University study says extreme weather change in 2010 and 2011 had impact on country or traditional food. Hunters had difficulty finding animals. Which means there was less food for some and less sharing. Can climate change have a huge impact on our food? Abraham Tagalik spoke with researcher Sara Statham, who did the study with Dr. James Ford. (ENGLISH

Health From the Sun Flaxseed Oil -- 90 Softgels
Good Enough
Good source of flax oil but the capsules stick together which was previously not the case. Still a good product but something changed in the production process.
December 19, 2012
Try another product
Purchased three bottles. All the softgels were stuck/clumped together (in all three bottles). Tried to take them apart / separate them and a few punctured, spilling the oil in the bottle. This resulted in a nasty odor in the bottle after a couple days. Try some other product.
December 12, 2012
good source, but burpy!
goes down fine, but makes me burp!

Great Vegetarian Option!
I've searched extensively over the internet, and it is the only vegetarian Flaxseed oil supplement (other than the oil in a bottle) at a reasonable price. I use this product regularly, and I've recommended it to my family members and friends who are vegetarian.

Review: | As a stand up paddler, I needed some type of hydration pack, but didn't want anything over my shoulders to encumber my upper body movement. Then, I find the CamelBak Tahoe LR. I've not only used it paddling this spring, but also downhill skiing this winter. I love it. In both sports, I really forgot I had it on. The water supply is good for about a 2 hour workout. The reservoir is easy to fill and dry. I've stored items in the pouches with ease and plan to stow my inflatable PFD in the back (under the gray area - so we'll see how that goes (if it works well, my review will go from 4 to 5 stars :-) | ||||

Easy decorating tips can bring attention to 'hidden' areas of a roomJun 16 2011 Adding art work or decorative accessories to a plain corner of a room creates a new focal point. HouseBeautiful.com reports that designers frequently choose a space that isn't the expected location for a piece of artwork or other decorative accessory to draw attention to "hidden" sections of a room. For instance, New York City interior designer Eric Cohler told the website that he likes to bring sparkle to artwork accessories by using bright, colored frames around a white mat, or a white frame around a colored mat. They can then be mounted in what Cohler calls an "unimaginative space" that now becomes a focal point. Many such decorating tricks can be accomplished in a day, even when a major piece of furniture is involved. To give new life to bookshelves or large cabinets, the back wall of the unit can be painted an accent color or covered with wallpaper. Creating an interesting combination of window treatments is another way to bring a quick fix to a room. Adding layers of texture can be achieved by using two treatments in entirely different materials, such as soft sheer curtains over wood blinds. Related Products

Calling all Royal Ballet fans!
You can be very proud indeed of Alina Cojocaru & Johan Kobborg's performances in 'Giselle'at the 3rd Mariinsky Festival, in St. Petersburg. The local audience went nuts for them. The comments during intermission were full of praise for the 'looks'and technique of both dancers. I stopped counting at about 10 curtain calls & had to leave, but they were still screaming 'bravo!' inside the theater as I was crossing Theater Square.
My review is up, on the Kirov-Mariinsky forum.
Cojocaru & Kobborg are a Mega-Hit in St Petersburg 'Giselle'!

New Tracking of "Dooring" Crashes Will Identify Problem Areas
CHICAGO – April 25, 2011. Governor Pat Quinn announced today that the state will begin tracking "dooring" crashes – accidents involving bicyclists who are struck by opened doors from parked cars. The change will take effect immediately to help determine locations where road improvements and public outreach efforts may be necessary to protect bicyclists from these dangerous collisions.
"As more people are riding bicycles and embracing other green modes of transportation, we need to ensure that Illinois collects data that presents a complete picture of what is happening on our roads," said Governor Quinn. "This new initiative will address a major safety issue for bicyclists and drivers, and will make our roads safer for everyone."
The new policy is the result of collaboration between Governor Quinn, the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) and the Active Transportation Alliance. Prior to the change in policy, dooring collisions went unrecognized in IDOT's annual reporting of traffic statistics because a moving motor vehicle was not involved.
The data collected and analyzed by IDOT can be used to plan for improved roadway designs and additional communication with motorists in areas with high concentrations of bicyclists.
"We appreciate Governor Quinn's action on this issue," said Ron Burke, executive director of the Active Transportation Alliance, an advocacy organization that works to improve conditions for walking, biking and transit. "Data on dooring problem spots will help communities take steps to reduce these collisions. We are grateful IDOT will track these crashes, and look forward to working with them to increase safety and education surrounding dooring."
To assist police in submitting the correct information, IDOT's Division of Traffic Safety is reaching out to law enforcement agencies across the state with instructions on how to begin recording dooring crashes. Police departments that have already have begun tracking dooring collisions, including Chicago, will have their data included in the state's traffic statistics, retroactive to May 2010.
"We are committed to working with our partners in law enforcement to make roads safer for bicyclists," Illinois Transportation Secretary Gary Hannig said. "Safety always will be a top priority at IDOT. The recognition of dooring accidents is another step in the right direction."

More copies of this ISBNAncient Futures: Lessons from Ladakh for a Globalizing Worldby Helen Norberg Hodge
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This gripping portrait of the rapidly evolving socioeconomic life of Ladakh - the Western Himalayan land known as Little Tibet - offers crucial lessons in sustainable development as its people attempt to balance growth and technology with cultural values. This account moves from the author's first visit in idyllic, nonindustrial Ladakh in 1974 to the present, showing the profound changes as the region was opened to foreign tourists, Western artifacts and technologies, and pressures for economic growth. These changes brought generational conflict, unemployment, inflation, environmental damage, and threats to the traditional way of life.
Appalled at the negative changes, the author helped establish the Ladakh Project (later renamed the International Society for Ecology and Culture) to seek sustainable solutions to preserve cultural values and environmental health, while facilitating the Ladakhis' hunger for modernization. This model undertaking effectively combines educational programs for all social levels with the design, demonstration, and promotion of appropriate technologies such as solar heating and small-scale hydro power. This examination of how modernization changes the way people live and think challenges us to redefine our concepts of development and progress. More than anything else, Ancient Futures: Learning from Ladakh stresses the need for the global community to find ways to carry traditional wisdom into the future. Synopsis:A gripping portrait of the western Himalayan land sometimes known as Little Tibet," Ancient Futures opens with author Helena Norberg-Hodges first visit in 1975 to idyllic, preindustrial Ladakh. She then tracks the profound changes that occurred as the region was opened to foreign tourists and Western goods and technologies, and offers a firsthand account of how relentless pressure for economic growth precipitated generational and religious conflict, unemployment, inflation, and environmental damage, threatening to unravel Ladakhs traditional way of life. Energized by the fate of a people who had captured her heart, Norberg-Hodge helped establish the Ladakh Project (later renamed the International Society for Ecology and Culture) to seek sustainable solutions that preserve cultural integrity and environmental health while addressing the hunger for modernization. Since then, other Ladakh-based projects have proliferated, supporting renewable energy systems, local agricultural methods, and the spiritual foundations of Ladakhi culture. The authors new afterword brings readers up-to-date on the work of these projects and on her own career over several decades as she traveled widely, observing similar impacts on other cultures. She challenges us to rethink our concepts of development" and progress," stressing above all the need to carry ancient wisdom into our future.

Drop 32-year-old Peter Basinger's name in a conversation with a group of cyclists, and you're unlikely to get a reaction—unless that group knows about snow biking. Basinger is a master of this super-niche skill set: The Anchorage native has won the 350-mile Iditarod Trail [36]Invitational six times (and completed it 12 times), and holds the unofficial record (3 days, 5 hours, 40 minutes) for the event. It goes without saying that he knows a thing or two about piloting a bike over snow. We caught up with Basinger as the first flakes of winter [37] were starting to fall to get his advice on riding the white stuff.
Adjust Your Mindset: Riding through the snow is slower and harder than what you'll experience the rest of the year. "You can't go into snow biking thing that you're going to be ripping around corners and hammering up hills," Basinger says. Instead, focus on the trail and the experience of being out there. "It's more about the adventure of where you are," he says.
Change Your Pedals: Even in great snow conditions, you're going to spend time on and off the bike. Clipless pedals will quickly pack with snow and ice. Instead, swap out to flat pedals and wear winter boots to keep your feet warm. "You'll be able to walk when you need to, which will save you from a huge headache," Basinger says. "And your feet will stay warmer too. And that's a really big deal."
Let the Air Out: Tire pressure is the number one thing you can control that can make or break your ride. Basinger's guide is pretty simple: If you're wallowing in the snow, let some more air out. "If you're riding on completely snow-covered trails, you can let your tire pressure down extremely low," Basinger says. The rule applies even if you don't have a fat bike [38] made for winter riding; 2 or 3 psi can be the difference between riding and walking.
Spin More, Worry Less: You can only be as aggressive as the trail surface allows—and in snow, that usually means you're not going to be jumping up to sprint, standing to hammer up climbs, or generally thrashing around. Basinger's advice: Shift into a gear that lets you keep a comfortably high cadence, take a seat, and spin down the trail.
Be Ready to Wander: On snowy trails, the sweet spot—where conditions are perfect for floating along—can be elusive. "On a lot of trails, there's only a small section that has the right conditions to ride on," Basinger says. "It's okay to wander back and forth to find it." At the same time, Basinger also recommends playing with the way you distribute your weight: If the snow's crusty, shift more weight to the front so you can stay on the crust without breaking through; if it's mushy, shift to the back so you can get some traction. In other words: Experiment. It's what winter riding's all about.

Pepita (from Mexican Spanish: pepita de calabaza, "little seed of squash") is a Spanish culinary term for the pumpkin seed, the edible seed of a pumpkin or other cultivar of squash (genus Cucurbita). The seeds are typically rather flat and asymmetrically oval, and light green in color inside a white hull. The word can refer either to the hulled kernel or unhulled whole seed, and most commonly refers to the roasted end product.
Pumpkin seeds rival sunflower seeds as the most popular snack in Russia and Ukraine. They are sold in Russian drugstores as a remedy for quelling parasitic infestations such as tapeworms.[1]
Pepitas are a popular ingredient in Mexican cuisine and are also roasted and served as a snack.[2] Marinated and roasted, they are an autumn seasonal snack in the United States, as well as a commercially produced and distributed packaged snack, like sunflower seeds, available year-round. Pepitas are known by their Spanish name (usually shortened), and typically salted and sometimes spiced after roasting (and today also available as a packaged product), in Mexico and other Latin American countries, in the American Southwest, and in speciality and Mexican food stores.
The earliest known evidence of the domestication of Cucurbita dates back 8,000-10,000 years ago, predating the domestication of other crops such as maize and common beans in the region by about 4,000 years. Changes in fruit shape and color indicate intentional breeding of C. pepo occurred by no later than 8,000 years ago.[3][4] The process to develop the agricultural knowledge of crop domestication took place over 5,000-6,500 years in Mesoamerica. Squash was domesticated first, with maize second and then beans being domesticated, becoming part of the Three Sisters agricultural system.[5][6]
As an ingredient in mole dishes, they are known in Spanish as pipián. A Mexican snack using pepitas in an artisan fashion is referred to as Pepitoría. Lightly roasted, salted, unhulled pumpkin seeds are popular in Greece with the descriptive Italian name, passatempo ("pastime").
The pressed oil of the roasted seeds of a Cucurbita pepo subsp. pepo var. 'styriaca' is also used in Central and Eastern Europe as cuisine, such as Pumpkin seed oil.[7][8]

The seeds are also good sources of protein, as well as iron, zinc, manganese, magnesium,[9] phosphorus, copper,[10] and potassium. 25 grams of pepitas can provide over 20 percent of the recommended daily iron intake.[11] Furthermore, just one-fourth cup of pepitas provides approximately 185 mg of magnesium, nearly 50% of the Recommended Daily Intake.[9]
In 2007, Stevenson, et al., of the USDA's New Crops Products Research Unit searched the primary literature for information about the lipid content of pepitas, and then grew and analyzed pepitas from seven cultivars of C. maxima.[12] They found the following ranges of fatty acid content in C. maxima pepitas (see pumpkin seed oil):
n:unsat | Fatty acid name | Percentage range |
(14:0) | Myristic acid | 0.003-0.056 |
(16:0) | Palmitic acid | 1.6-8.0 |
(16:1) | Palmitoleic acid | 0.02-0.10 |
(18:0) | Stearic acid | 0.81-3.21 |
(18:1) | Oleic acid | 3.4-19.4 |

(20:0) | Arachidic acid | 0.06-0.21 |
(20:1) | Gadoleic acid | 0-0.035 |
(22:0) | Behenic acid | 0.02-0.12 |
The reported concentration of myristate and palmitate (the cholestrogenic fatty acids) for the pepitas ranged from 1.6% to 4.9%. The total unsaturated fatty acid concentration ranged from 9% to 21% of the pepita. The total fat content ranged from 11% to 52%. Based on the quantity of alpha-tocopherol extracted in the oil, the vitamin E content of the twelve C. maxima cultivar seeds ranged from 4 to 19 mg/100 g of pepita.
Nutraceutical uses[edit]
This section needs additional citations for verification. (May 2011) |
The seeds (and seed oil, see below) of pumpkins, such as Cucurbita pepo varieties have been subject to a great deal of research, especially into the treatment of prostate ailments.[13][14]
Whole seeds or kernels[edit]
According to the USDA,[15] one gram of roasted pepita contain 5.69 mg L-tryptophan and one gram of pepita protein contains 17.2 mg[16] of L-tryptophan. One cup of milk contains 183 mg. This high tryptophan content makes pepita of interest to researchers studying the treatment of anxiety disorders.[17] Some eat the seeds as preventative measure against onset of anxiety attacks, clinical depression and other mood disorders.
Some studies[which?] have also found pumpkin seeds to prevent arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and to regulate cholesterol levels in the body.
A 2011 Egyptian study found that in rats, pumpkin seed oil has anti-hypertensive and cardio-protective properties.[18]
A 2009 double-blind, placebo-controlled Korean study found that in men suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (n=47), pumpkin seed oil is an effective treatment.[19]
The oil[edit]
The oil of pumpkin seeds, a culinary speciality in (and important export commodity of) Central European cuisine as a salad oil and a cooking oil, is also used to treat irritable bowel syndrome and various other ailments, both in folk medicine and in modern medical practice and research.[medical citation needed]
Long an Eastern European folk remedy for the prostate problems of men, the oil has in fact been shown to improve symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate due to benign prostatic hyperplasia.[10][20][21] Components in pumpkin seed oil appear to interrupt the triggering of prostate cell multiplication by testosterone and DHT.[citation needed] However, it is questionable whether eating the seeds whole in snack quantities, rather than taking therapeutic doses of the concentrated oil, would provide any prostate benefit.[10]

WHY IS SHE FAMOUS: Member of the musical Jackson family, her fame is second only to her brother Michael's. But she's had an impressive career of her own, putting out such hit albums as Control, Rhythm Nation 1814, The Velvet Rope and All For You. She's also had starring turns in the movies Poetic Justice and The Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps.
WHY SHE IS DESIRABLE: She's been cited by such pop stars as Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera as a major influence. She's been showing off her gorgeous body while singing since those girls were still in diapers -- and Janet's still got it going on.
