She's like, one of the closest people in my life. I'm dating my celebrity crush! Well I think we kinda always knew there was something more. I don't even remember a time when he wasn't my boyfriend. Of course I know what Monchele is! No one knows me better than Cory. It's a bit of a date night, yeah! I'm very thankful that I'm in an awesome relationship right now. Lea's dress? It's stunning. I'm the luckiest man. You know, Canada makes some great dudes, and he's definitely one of them. She bought me an inflatable remote-controlled shark balloon. Best gift I ever received. Oh. You can't make me pick one word for him. That's not fair. We could talk about that in detail. That's her! See? Look how cute she is!

Joint resources could be scarce in early February. No matter how hard you plead, you won't get the necessary money to do a good job. Therefore, you'll have to reduce your own expectations. It's embarrassing for a perfectionist like you to submit work that's below par. Still, it can't be helped. Dipping into your own finances will backfire. You've got to do the best you can with what you have. Professional advice you received last month will prove erroneous. It's time to take matters into your own hands. Stop paying for information that you can find yourself. You have a natural talent for research. Use it.

NEW YORK - Any momentum gained from a long night of negotiations between the NHL and the players' association seemed to have been lost Thursday when the sides remained mostly apart. A meeting that Commissioner Gary Bettman said would begin at 10 a.m. EST didn't start until several hours later, and then ended quickly. That one hour of talks centered on the reporting of hockey-related revenues by teams, and both sides signing off on the figures at the end of the fiscal year. The problem was resolved. The key issues that are still threatening the hockey season weren't addressed then, but a small group of players and other union staff returned to the NHL office shortly before 6 p.m., to hold another meeting regarding the contentious pension plan. Union head Donald Fehr didn't take part in either of the two sessions Thursday and it wasn't known if a full bargaining meeting would take place Thursday night. The players' association held a conference call at 5 p.m. to discuss starting another vote among union membership that would give the executive board the power to invoke a disclaimer of interest and dissolve the union. Members gave overwhelmingly approval last month, but the union declined to disclaim before a self-imposed deadline Wednesday night. It wasn't immediately known when a new authorization would expire. Players are expected to have 48 hours to vote, as opposed to the five days they were given the first time. With the lockout in its 110th day, both sides understand the urgency to save a shortened season. They have several key issues to work out - pensions and salary cap limits, among them.

Style and Technique (Masterplots II: Short Story Series, Revised Edition)
Chekhov is renowned for his economy of words and ability to portray a mood or a person with a single, well-chosen word. In "Gooseberries," he utilizes this technique as usual until Ivan Ivanich gives his speech on the evils of the world. At this point, Chekhov launches into a very uncharacteristic authorial sermon that catches the immediate attention of the reader but that, at times, seems redundant.
Another Chekhovian technique, however, is carefully adhered to: the use of exaggeration of a human characteristic to prove a point. Chekhov wishes to portray the human ability to delude oneself and to settle for less than what one can achieve. In his portrayal of Nikolai Ivanich, Chekhov presents the reader with an absurd example of such a person but not so absurd that the point is lost. Chekhov's immense talent permits him to exaggerate but not go so far that the reader views the work as fantasy or comedy.

BARRIER ONE: the cubic yard solution to a square foot problem
Barrier One High Performance Concrete Admixture is a very unique, complex formula that is free of all volatile organic compounds (VOC). It is specifically designed to have a natural chemical reaction with pre-existing elements inside the concrete to eliminate the route of moisture vapor emission through the slab by restricting the integral capillary system. The chemical reaction forms a permanent barrier (capillary break) that is integral to the concrete, insoluble and irremovable.
In short, Barrier One removes the necessity for field moisture testing, expensive topical remediation systems, and endemic project delays due to the inability to install flooring on schedule.
Barrier One is the proud recipient of a 2012 NOVA award. The NOVA Award is the Construction Innovation Forum's (CIF) most distinguished honor instituted in 1989 to recognize innovations that represent proven cost savings and quality improvement on actual projects.
The NOVA Award has a serious mission: to illuminate the innovations and innovators that have made important contributions to the construction industry. A jury of internationally recognized experts selects NOVA winners after an intense and thorough investigative process.
CIF has presented more than 80 NOVA Awards to innovations involving 12 countries: Canada, China, Egypt, Finland, France, Great Britain, Holland, Japan, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and United States.

Chennai: It's quite a feeling to have something in common with Viswanathan Anand. I do. Not that I know much about chess. But Vishy, as we affectionately call him, was my school mate at Don Bosco, Egmore. A senior who has been most appropriately held up as a role model for every new batch of students; year after year, with every new title he would win and defend. And it's not just for his incredible feats but for the sort of person that he is.
Vishy belongs to the '87 batch of Don Bosco; four years my senior. We didn't get to see much of him, except during exams as he used to travel extensively. The school was admittedly a big support and would not merely give him attendance but also re-schedule exams for him. One of our teachers and former Assistant Headmaster Michael Sundar often recalls how "Vishy would never take privileges for granted. If he missed classes, he would work overtime to complete his notes and homework." That's bang on. This is why not a single student ever grudged those special allowances made for the chess champion.
I do faintly remember an incident while playing the DB patented sport - crocker (half cricket, half baseball, with a half out!) A juicy full toss on my leg stump was way too tempting to resist pulling over mid-wicket. The ball landed on Vishy's bench and missed his lunch box full of curd rice by a whisker. I was ordered by the bowler to get the ball back. With considerable trepidation, I walked up to Vishy and even before I could apologise, he gave me the ball and said: "Hey nice shot. Sorry you missed a four because of me." He obviously didn't know my name but we all knew him - as a world chess champion. And yes, a wonderful human being.
For a school that was better known for State ranks and centums, cricket and table tennis, to make a mark in a relatively less glamorous sport like chess, called for nothing short of world class standards. Just into his teens, Vishy was World No.3 in the sub junior category. Well before the newspapers had pictures of the State Toppers in the Class 10 exam, Vishy made headlines as the Govt of India had decided to honour this 15 year old student with the Arjuna award for being an 'Outstanding Sportsperson'.
The laurels kept flowing in and no quiz competition was ever complete without a question or two on Vishy's latest victories! Talking of quiz contests, I must tell you about Vishy's 'disqualification' from a competition in the Philippines! As this boy wonder was collaring every prize for solving the most complicated puzzles, the organizers asked him to stop participating! The prizes were books. So they told Vishy to take as many books as he could possibly carry but to give the others a chance!
If he comes across as serious in interviews, well, I for one know that Vishy is very different with his family and friends. Susheela Aunty still chuckles when she tells us about a prank Vishy played on her in Spain many years ago. He had taught her a few mischievous words in Spanish and the poor lady got to know about the real meaning only after trying it out on her maid!
We've all heard of alumni going back as Chief Guests to their Alma Mater. Vishy was one of the few students to have been invited as a Guest of Honour at the Independence Day function when he was in Class 12. I still vividly admire this affable senior sitting on the stage in a striped T.Shirt, next to his father, who incidentally was the General Manager of Southern Railway and the Chief Guest that year.

Reboot Charlotte: Reboot In A New CountryCHARLOTTE, N.C. - Figure skating coach Andriy Kyforenko is on the ice seven days a week. He is here in the early mornings, in the afternoons and much of Saturday and Sunday. When his students are available to learn he is ready to teach on and off ice. At just 31 years old Kyforenko has an impressive roster of dedicated figure skaters. Being a coach in America was always his hope. Kyforenko says "I have this job and I very much enjoy figure skating and being a coach in America, it was my dream." Kyforenko is from Odessa, Ukraine where he was for many years one of the country's best on ice. He also competed internationally to much acclaim but a devastating series of injuries dashed Olympic dreams. Kyforenko then performed in ice shows that allowed him and his wife Anya to see the world. But even then both knew coaching in America was their future. Kyforenko says "America gives opportunity to work here there are a lot of ice rinks a lot of options to be a coach here." Contacts through friends got an interview in Charlotte and that was almost three years ago. For Kyforenko he is far from home but he says he is exactly where he wants to be here in Charlotte, " it's a growing city and I can see at this ice rink I can have a lot of opportunity and this city can give a lot of opportunity to stay and live here. " 28 year old Ro Van Den Berg hails from South Africa where he grew up around boats and surf boards, riding them and fixing them. Through the internet he discovered the sport of long boarding. These boards were not available in South Africa so Van Den Berg did what entrepreneurs do, he made one and word spread, "they were like can you make us a board made them boards and their friends wanted some and that grew into us making a decision about what to put a name on something." Earth Skateboard Company was born but Van Den Berg knew long board's biggest market in the world was America, "it's massive I mean it's the fastest growing board sport in the United States." Through his research he found that Charlotte might be an ideal location, "looking at the trends moving in from California and moving down from New York and you sort of find it all condenses in the south and there was no one down here producing longboards on a mainstream level. So the engineering major made the move, built his shop and invested in the equipment to build longboards. Van Den Berg wants to keep his business at a boutique level healthy but not mass produced. The name also indicates his commitment to being green and adhering to sustainable products and methods. The QC did have one other rather major advantage in keeping this South African from going back home or even to another city, he met his wife here, "it's been a great trip so far, are you going to stay? looks like we are!" Now both of these men came to Charlotte during a depressed economy but they worked hard and created that foundation for success- proving that in this country and in this city you can live the American dream. 15 percent of Mecklenburg county residents are foreign born and the number of people coming to our area each year has increased for more than ten years.

Colorful Stuffed Pork Chops Recipe
For an eye-catching entree, Elizabeth Jussaume of Lowell, Massachusetts grills pork chops filled with a colorful corn, pimiento and green pepper stuffing.
- 6 bone-in center-cut pork loin chops (1 inch thick and 10 ounces each)
- 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1-1/2 cups cubed bread, toasted
- 1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
- 1/4 cup egg substitute
- 2 tablespoons diced pimientos
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- Cut a pocket in each pork chop by slicing almost to the bone; sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in pockets. Set aside.
- In a small skillet, saute onion and green pepper in butter until tender. Transfer to a bowl. Add the bread cubes, corn, egg substitute, pimientos, cumin and remaining salt and pepper; mix well. Stuff into pork chops; secure with toothpicks.
- Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Prepare grill for indirect heat, using a drip pan.
- Grill chops, covered, over medium indirect heat for 12-15 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145° and 160° for stuffing. Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving. Yield: 6 servings.

The cortex is a thin, crosslinked actin network lying immediately beneath the plasma membrane of animal cells. Myosin motors exert contractile forces in the meshwork. Because the cortex is attached to the cell membrane, it plays a central role in cell shape control. The proteic constituents of the cortex undergo rapid turnover, making the cortex both mechanically rigid and highly plastic, two properties essential to its function. The cortex has recently attracted increasing attention and its functions in cellular processes such as cytokinesis, cell migration, and embryogenesis are progressively being dissected. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on the structural organization, composition, and mechanics of the actin cortex, focusing on the link between molecular processes and macroscopic physical properties. We also highlight consequences of cortex dysfunction in disease.

University Libraries at the University of South Dakota presents "Remembering Governor Janklow," an exhibition showcasing materials and documents that uncover the late Governor Janklow's unique personality. The retrospective will be on display from February 15 to April 16 during library hours.
Visitors to this exhibition, located at the University Libraries in the second and third floor exhibition cases, can see how the late Gov. William Janklow's personal life and political accomplishments intertwined to make his life an intriguing and controversial piece of South Dakota history.
"The pieces in this exhibition give people a background to the official and personal papers of Bill Janklow," said first-year law student and curator, Joseph De La Rosa.
Visitors can also get a glimpse into the William J. Janklow Papers at the USD Archives & Special Collections. The Janklow collection includes documents, letters, photographs, newspapers, audio recordings, and videos. The diverse volume spans a period of more than 50 years and covers both the official correspondence of the Governor's Office as well as personal and political materials.

Rankings of the Most Influential Open Source Voices
Mark Fidelman from the open source centered company Mindtouch, has devised a method of establishing who has the strongest influence in the open source community. The result is a list of the Most Powerful Voices (MPV) by rank.
Fidelman arrived at his conclusions by creating a formula to measure parameters like popularity on Twitter, Google and blogs. The MPV score was then gleamed by evaluating criteria such as Followers, Open Source Buzz and Web Buzz.
Tim O'Reilly is the undisputed leader of the list. Despite being relatively quiet on blogs and Twitter, Linus Torvalds came in at second place. Torvalds doesn't blog much and when he does its usually more about his family than open source matters, yet this alone is enough to attract a lot of attention. The rankings can be found on the blog of Mark Fidelmann.

Guide to the
2002 Economic Census
Sectors in 2002 ZIP Code Statistics: | |
44-45 | Retail Trade |
54 | Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services |
56 | Administrative, Support, Waste Management, Remediation Services |
61 | Educational Services |
62 | Health Care and Social Assistance |
71 | Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation |
72 | Accommodation and Foodservices |
81 | Other Services (except Public Administration) |
ZIP Code Statistics presents counts of establishments by size by detailed NAICS for five-digit ZIP Codes in 8 of the 18 sectors covered in the 2002 Economic Census. These sectors include roughly 60 percent of establishments with paid employees counted in the economic census. There are no statistics on the distribution of nonemployer establishments by ZIP Code.
The statistics shown are counts of establishments classified by size of sales or receipts:
These categories exclude establishments in business for fewer than 10 months of the year, since part-year receipts would not be representative of the actual size of the business. These establishment counts by size class are not considered to be a disclosure of confidential information, so data lines are present for every kind of business with one or more establishments within a ZIP Code.
Other Sources of ZIP Code Statistics: ZIP Code Business Patterns (ZBP) presents counts of establishments by industry by employment-size class annually. ZBP data also include all business sectors (excluding only farming and government), unlike the limitation to 8 sectors in the 2002 census program. Total employment and payroll for the ZIP Code are also shown, but without industry detail.
ZIP Code Statistics tables for 1997 included aggregate sales or receipts, payroll, and employment in ranges for each sector by ZIP Code, but corresponding data are not published for 2002.
Economic Census ZIP Code data in American FactFinder: 2002 Economic Census ZIP Code Statistics are available in their entirety in American FactFinder (factfinder2.census.gov). Since the data are segmented into separate files by both sector and division, the following table should be helpful in linking directly in to the file that has the data of interest in American FactFinder. See below for a map showing the states that comprise each division.
To look up data for a single ZIP code, use the "Geographies" button.
The place names shown are for reference only. The U.S. Postal Service recognizes multiple names for many ZIP codes. The data shown are for the ZIP code, without regard to the name of the place shown.
Economic Census ZIP Code data on DVD-ROM: These data are on Economic Census DVD-ROM Volume 1Z. See http://www.census.gov/econ/census02/guide/g02dvd.htm.

Prostate BiopsyWhen the findings of the physical exam, DRE, and PSA level, suggest that a cancer might be present in the prostate, the diagnosis must be confirmed by biopsy (taking a sample of the tumor). The sample of tumor tissue is then examined by a pathologist, (doctor who specializes in diagnosing diseases by microscopic evaluation) to confirm the presence of cancer. Main indication for prostate biopsy:
According to AUA guidelines there is no single threshold value of PSA that should prompt biopsy. Although the decision to take a biopsy is to be based primarily on PSA and DRE, it should take into consideration other factors such as PSA velocity, family history, ethnicity, prior biopsy results, and underlying medical conditions. Biopsy procedure:
