One Down, 161 To Go
Welp, the Twins just finished game number one with a very nice 7-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles. It was a good game for a first game. You could certainly see some first game jitters, but hopefully those will be out of the way in short time. I am going to be pretty brief today because I was up way too late working on all of those predictions and must sleep, but here are a few thoughts on the season's first game.
Johan Santana picked up his first win of the season. The star lefty gave up four runs on seven hits and two walks in his six innings. At times, he looked spectacular. Other times, he fought some control issues and got hurt. That tells you just how amazing Santana is. Why do I say that? Because if he isn't completely on his game, particularly with location, he too can be hit. It makes it pretty amazing that he is "on" so often. He will only get better!
The vaunted bullpen came through with three scoreless innings. Dennys Reyes did not have much control and got an out and a walk, but Jesse Crain came in and got the final two outs. I thought Crain looked pretty good and he was working all three of his pitches. I know he's been in the league now for two full seasons, but he is someone that I think will only get better and better. Why? Fastball at 95. Slider at 89. Curveball at 80. Control over those three pitches will be key, but when he finally gets it with all three, he will be Nathan-like! Juan Rincon was being squeezed by home plate umpire Joe West, but he got through it. And Joe Nathan was dominant as always.
In the second inning, Justin Morneau hit the first pitch he saw to the opposite field for his first home of the season. The next pitch was to Torii Hunter and he went yard opposite field as well. It was at that moment that I totally wanted to be at the ballpark. That place must have been going crazy!
Morneau came out with three hits. He had the homer, a nice two-strike single to left field, and a line drive should-have-been double off the baggy in right. I think he was safe on a close play at 2B. One example of playing with a little bit too much energy was when he tried to score from 2B on a based loaded single to right by Jeff Cirillo. He had no chance, so I don't know why he went. Nick Markakis, as good of a hitter as he is, has a great arm. Remember that he was a star pitcher in college and had as many teams looking to draft him as a pitcher as as a catcher.
Luis Castillo slapped his way to three hits. As much as we all think Torii Hunter will have a big year because he is playing for his next big contract, maybe Luis Castillo can have a solid contract year too!
Was that great LF defense by Rondell White? He made a great diving catch in which he ran quite a ways to make the play. Oh, and more impressively, White took a walk in the game. It took him six weeks to do that last year!
At this rate, Michael Cuddyer will strike out 486 times and leave 976 runners on base! Note - I'm not worried.
Tonight, it will be Boof Bonser facing Daniel Cabrera. I know a lot of people wanted to believe that Leo Mazzone would work his wonders on the wild, but uber-talented Cabrera. It does take time, but I think that Cabrera could become one of the league's best by the end of this season. It is also a big night for Bonser. he seems pretty composed, but I am sure it will be good to get that first start out of the way.
The Win puts the Twins in first place with the Cleveland Indians and the Kansas City Royals, a game ahead of the Detroit Tigers and Chicago White Sox.
Let's take a real quick look at some Opening Day box scores and see if there is anything interesting:
Gil Meche beat the Red Sox by giving up just one run in 7.1 innings of work. Good for him!
Hanley Ramirez had a nice 4 hit game with two doubles. He also stole two bases. Can he be another Jose Reyes already this year?
Miguel Cabrera drove in four runs with his single, double and home run.
Brian McCann had a single, double and home runs for the Braves against the Phillies. Edgar Renterria hit two home runs including the game-winner in the 10th.
Elijah Dukes homered in his first big league game, for his first big league hit.
Alex Rodriguez went 2-5 with a homer and a stolen base, but he still gave Yankees fans reason to boo him when he misplayed a foul pop up.
Cleveland jumped all over Jose Contreras with seven first inning runs. Grady Sizemore led off the game with a home run. Trot Nixon had three hits in his first game with the Tribe. Sizemore, Travis Hafner, Victor Martinez and Jhonny Peralta each had two hits in the game.
So, Ben Sheets has missed time the last two seasons with arm injuries. So, on Opening Day, the Brewers let him pitch a complete game, with only a solo home run by Jeff Kent tarnishing a shutout. It was one of two Dodgers hits. Am I wrong in thinking it is crazy to let him go all nine innings in a 7-1 win? Of course, he threw just 104 pitches.
Adam Dunn had two LONG home runs for the Reds in his first two at bats. The interesting thing is that Dunn is hitting 2nd in the Reds lineup, ahead of Brandon Phillips of all people. With Ken Griffey Jr as the cleanup man, could Phillips be in a better spot?
Speaking of strange lineups... how is Orlando Hudson the #3 hitter for a team that some seem to believe have a playoff chance (Arizona)? Of course, in Game 1, he went 3-4 with a double and two RBI.
Like Michael Cuddyer, Rockies star Matt Holliday is on pace to strikeout 486 times and leave 972 runners on base. In other words, nothing to worry about.
In the Royals big win over Curt Schilling and the Red Sox, Mark Grudzielanek had three hits and three RBI. Mark Teahen, Mike Sweeney, John Buck and Tony Pena, Jr., each had two hits as well. Pena had two triples in the game.
Felix Hernandez went eight shutout innings against the A's. He gave up just three hits, walked none and struck out 12. This may just be his breakout year! Again though, 111 pitches is a lot at this point in the season.
Jason Bay hit a big two run, 10th inning homer to give the Pirates a win over the Astros.
Former Twins
Cristian Guzman batted second for the Washington Nationals and went 0-3. He left the game after the fifth inning with a hamstring injury and could miss some time.
Levale Speigner made his big league debut for the Nationals. He gave up just one run in his 2.1 innings. He allowed three hits, walked three and struck out one. Just 19 of his 41 pitches were strikes.
Todd Jones pitched a scoreless ninth inning for the Tigers.
Doug Mientkiewicz went 1-1 for the Yankees. With Scott Kazmir pitching against the Yankees, Josh Phelps got the start at 1B.
Casey Blake went 1-4 with a double, two runs and an RBI as the Indians first baseman and 5th hitter.
AJ Pierzynski went 0-3 catching for the White Sox.
Jacque Jones was 1-4 and played RF and batted fifth.
LaTroy Hawkins got the loss for the Rockies. He gave up three runs in just 2/3 of an inning.
David Ortiz went 1-3 with a double that drove in a run.
JC Romero came in with runners on in relief of Joel Pineiro. He got the next two outs.
Shannon Stewart went 0-4 as the A's LF and #2 hitter.

A man in a wheelchair detonated a home-made explosive in Beijing airport on Saturday, injuring himself and sending smoke billowing through the exit area of the international arrivals section of Terminal 3.There were no other injuries and operations were normal after the blast, the airport said on its microblog.China's official Xinhua news agency said the man, 34-year-old Ji Zhongxing from the eastern province of Shandong, had detonated the loud device after being prevented from handing out leaflets that drew attention to unspecified complaints.Some Chinese activists and rights lawyers later posted online what they said was a letter of complaint from Ji regarding a 2005 incident in which he claims to have been partially paralysed after being beaten by police in Guangdong province's manufacturing hub of Dongguan.It was not possible to independently verify the letter.Individual Chinese unable to win redress for grievances have in the past resorted to extreme measures, including bombings, but such incidents are rare amid the tight security at airports.The explosion took place just metres outside the door from which arriving international passengers depart after picking up their luggage.An airport spokeswoman declined to speculate about the man's specific motive, saying airport police were still investigating. Police declined to comment. Officials said the bomber was being treated for his injuries.Explosives are relatively easy to obtain in China, home to the world's largest mining and fireworks industries. Source: Reuters

The neutrophil NADPH oxidase produces superoxide anions in response to infection. This reaction is activated by association of cytosolic factors, p47phox and p67phox, and a small G protein Rac with the membranous flavocytochrome b558. Another cytosolic factor, p40phox, is associated to the complex and is reported to play regulatory roles. Initiation of the NADPH oxidase activation cascade has been reported as consecutive to phosphorylation on serines 359/370 and 379 of the p47phox C terminus. These serines surround a polyproline motif that can interact with the Src homology 3 (SH3) module of p40phox (SH3p40) or the C-terminal SH3 of p67phox (C-SH3p67). The latter one presents a higher affinity in the resting state for p47phox. A change in SH3 binding preference following phosphorylation has been postulated earlier. Here we report the crystal structures of SH3p40 alone or in complex with a 12-residue proline-rich region of p47phox at 1.46 angstrom resolution. Using intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence measurements, we compared the affinity of the strict polyproline motif and the whole C terminus peptide with both SH3p40 and C-SH3p67. These data reveal that SH3p40 can interact with a consensus polyproline motif but also with a noncanonical motif of the p47phox C terminus. The electrostatic surfaces of both SH3 are very different, and therefore the binding preference for C-SH3p67 can be attributed to the polyproline motif recognition and particularly to the Arg-368p47 binding mode. The noncanonical motif contributes equally to interaction with both SH3. The influence of serine phosphorylation on residues 359/370 and 379 on the affinity for both SH3 domains has been checked. We conclude that contrarily to previous suggestions, phosphorylation of Ser-359/370 does not modify the SH3 binding affinity for both SH3, whereas phosphorylation of Ser-379 has a destabilizing effect on both interactions. Other mechanisms than a phosphorylation induced switch between the two SH3 must therefore take place for NADPH oxidase activation cascade to start.

[NCF1_HUMAN] Defects in NCF1 are the cause of chronic granulomatous disease autosomal recessive cytochrome-b-positive type 1 (CGD1) [MIM:233700]. Chronic granulomatous disease is a genetically heterogeneous disorder characterized by the inability of neutrophils and phagocytes to kill microbes that they have ingested. Patients suffer from life-threatening bacterial/fungal infections.[1][2]
[NCF1_HUMAN] NCF2, NCF1, and a membrane bound cytochrome b558 are required for activation of the latent NADPH oxidase (necessary for superoxide production).[3]

It was another Payday and I was tired of Mr. Goodbar.
When I saw Miss Hershey standing behind the Powerhouse on the corner of Clark and Fifth Avenue, I whipped out my Whopper and whispered, "Hey, Sweetheart, how'd you like to Crunch on my Chunky for a Million Dollar Bar?"
She immediately went down on my Tootsie Roll, and it was like pure Almond Joy.
I couldn't help but grab her delicious Mounds because it was easy to see that this little Twix had the Red Hots.
It was all I could do to hold the Snickers and Crackle as my Butterfinger went up her tight little Kit Kat and she started to scream, "Oh Henry, Oh Henry!"
Soon she was fondling my Mars and ZagNut, so it wouldn't be long before I blew my Milk Duds clear to her Milky Way.
She asked me if I was into M&M, but I said, "Hey Chicklet, no kinky stuff." I said, "Look you little Reese's Pieces, don't be a Zero, be a Lifesaver. Why don't you take my Whatchamacallit and slip it up your Bit 'O' Honey?"
She was quite a piece of Juicy Fruit and screamed, "Oh Crackerjack, better than the Three Musketeers!" as I rammed my Ding Dong up her Rocky Road and into her Peanut Butter Cup.
I was giving it to her Good 'N' Plenty, when all the sudden -- my Starburst.
As luck would have it, she soon complained of a Wrigley in her stomach.
Sure enough, nine months later, out popped Baby Ruth.

More than Lagers & Laughter: See what the weekend has to offer in Northern Michigan
By Rick Coates
While the marquee events of this weekend will definitely be the
Traverse City Winter Microbrew & Music Festival and the Traverse City
Comedy Arts Festival, there are other happenings throughout the region
and that is a good thing. If you do the math there will be about
150,000 residents and visitors within 60 miles of downtown Traverse
City this weekend and the two events are able to accommodate a little
more than five percent of those in the area. So what do the other
140,00 people in the region do this weekend? Here is a snapshot of
Super Happy Fun Time Burlesque at the InsideOut Gallery
Back by popular demand is the
Grand Rapids based Super Happy Fun Time Burlesque at the InsideOut
Gallery, in Traverse City, on Saturday night, February 12.
Super Happy Funtime Burlesque originated in Grand Rapids in 2004 and
has taken their community by storm. While his friends were soaking up
the offerings of current pop culture, Super Happy co-founder Corey
Ruffin was busy with his fathers record collection that consisted of
10,000 recordings from the burlesque and vaudeville era. Ruffin, who
is the bandleader and shows host (his stage name is Mr. Happy Pants),
has watched Super Happy Funtime Burlesque grow from its humble
beginnings at the 160-seat Sazarec Lounge, in Grand Rapids to touring
the country. Their Traverse City show a few years back was their first
out-of-town gig. The sold out show has resulted in the troupe making
an annual pilgrimage back to the InsideOut Gallery this time of year.
I like to say just in time for Valentines Day, said InsideOut
Gallery owner Mike Curths. This troupe has been very popular and
definitely a gallery favorite.
This show is definitely rated R and while there are several sexual
innuendoes, Super Happy Fun Time is very classy in their approach.
One thing I want to emphasize is that we are not some sort of
burlesque or vaudeville revival show. We are not doing historical
sketches from that period. Certainly we are in the spirit of those
art forms but with a modern perspective, said Ruffin. Basically, we
are a variety show with each act having about five minutes to do their
thing. Essentially, American Idol, late night talk shows and
Saturday Night Live are all burlesque and vaudeville in fashion but
for contemporary.
The show starts at 9 pm on Saturday at the InsideOut Gallery, located
in the Warehouse District. Advance tickets are suggested and for
additional details, call the Gallery at 231-929-3254.
Red Green Show at the Kirtland Center
The popular PBS handyman, Red Green will bring his one-man-show to the
Kirtland stage in Roscommon for two performances on Saturday February
12. There will be a 2 p.m. matinee as well as a 7:00 p.m. evening
performance; and both shows were nearing sell-out at press time.
Red Green, best known for his work on PBSs The Red Green Show has,
for years, brought laughter to Americans and Canadians with the help
of the other members of The Possum Lodge, as well as come up with
endless uses for the handymans secret weapon: duct tape. He will
also be selling his new book How to Do Everything at both
performances. For tickets or additional information go to
www.kirtlandcenter.com or call the ticket office at 989-275-6777.
KC & The Sunshine Band at the Little River Casino
Few musicians can take credit for actually creating a music style, but
when you ask who was responsible for the Disco music scene of the
early 70s, a one Howard Wayne Casey comes to mind. Casey founded KC
and the Sunshine Band in 1973 and was behind such hits as (Shake,
Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty, Give It Up, Keep It Comin Love,
Thats The Way (I Like It), Im Your Boogie Man, Get Down
Tonight, and Boogie Shoes.
The band pioneeredalong with the Bee Gees and Donna Summerthe disco
music and dance music.
Casey, nicknamed KC, brings his band to Northern Michigan this
Saturday to the Little River Casino in Manistee.
I am looking forward to it up there. I love the snow, said KC. I
have been checking the weather up there and see that it has been
snowing hard. But truly, I like the snow. I live in Miami and we dont
get snow so I love it because I get to see it and then leave it.
KC says he is very energized today. He just turned 60 last week and
says he sees himself on the road as long as people will come to see
I look out in the audience and I see kids to grandmas. It is really
cool, said KC. What I am really enjoying is playing a lot of
intimate venues and I hear that the Little River is a smaller venue so
we are excited.
So should people bring their Boogie Shoes?
Definitely, said KC. KC and the Sunshine Band is not a sit down
concert. It is a partnership and we expect the crowd to do their
A few tickets still remain for the KC and Sunshine Band this Saturday
February 12 at the Little River Casino in Manistee. Tickets may be
purchased online at www.littlerivercasinos.com or by calling Star
Tickets Plus at 880-585-3737.

Wedding DJ puts his spin on the big day
Pat Stinson
Wedding DJ puts his spin on the Big Day
By Pat Stinson
After spinning discs at 1,200-plus weddings and spending 14 years as a WRIF radio personality in Detroit, deejay Mike Staff, owner of the wedding services firm Mike Staff Productions, has seen and heard it all. He offers plenty of sage advice for would-be grooms and brides, based on his observations and those of his seasoned DJs, photographers and videographers.
Anecdotes abound in the wedding business, and there are as many stories as there are participants. Some are funny such as when the best-looking father-of-the-groom Staff had ever seen turned out to be a transvestite. Some are sad, such as a Bridezilla and Winnie-the-Pooh fanatic who used a microphone to yell obscenities at her new husband when he joined her in a dance with her beloved Pooh-bear.
Staff observes that there are two types of wedding clients. Most approach their Big Day as the party of their lives, and are there to have a good time. Others want to control everything. They cant really get into the vibe and they dont have fun, Staff says of the latter.
On the other hand, would-be grooms should assume one or two responsibilities, so their wishes are heard and prospective brides arent shouldering everything. Remember, grooms, its your day too, he says.

Bow & Sparrow
An urban fairy tale of high-flying dancers
Pat Stinson 11/9/09
Like an arrow sailing toward a bulls-eye, or a songbird heading to its migratory home, Northern Michigan native Alayna Stroud has always known the path she would travel. The co-artistic director of Bow & Sparrow, a San Francisco aerial dance company, will share her life-long love of movement and adventure when she returns to Traverse City with members of her ensemble for the Michigan premiere of NeverAfter at InsideOut Gallery, this Thursday and Friday, Nov. 12-13.
I am truly delighted to have this opportunity to share my art for the first time with my family and friends, said Stroud, who took dance classes and attended junior high in Traverse City, followed by a year of high school at Interlochen Arts Academy. Many people that Ive known all my life have never seen me perform, and I feel lucky to share my passion with them.

Love this idea-just discovered it via Pinterest. I usually do a name writing activity borrowed from Amie Buckner, but you have truly taken it to a new level by adding in the text features and computer skills. LOVE IT!! Thanks so much for sharing. A little tip: look for those baby name books at Goodwill and thrift stores. I have bought several for .50 and my kids love looking at them.

B&M Valvoline 5 Qt Oil Walmart $6 Coupon (all type of oil)
Last edited by widgit; 09-16-2012 at 12:41 PM..
Reason: added general deal picture
Premium or SynPower
I would not use Maxlife as it's designed with additives that swell seals, possibly a benefit in some cars but I have nothing that old that uses oil or leaks. NextGen is made from 50% recycled oil, which sounds undesirable but experts say "as a starting point recycled oil is in better shape that crude". I would consider using in place of the Premium but only if the price is lower. NOTE I don't know how they control the synthetic content if it makes any difference. If you want to be sure you are using all dino the only way I see is to use Premium. You want to do a little research using Google on your car. As an example, our Lexus has one of the engines that is prone to sludge buildup. For that car we use a full synthetic, which is SynPower. Our 1985 RX-7 right now is on Valvoline Premium because it burns well in a rotary as they purposely inject oil into the combustion chamber. I also read the manufacturers recommendations and match oil weight to your temperature range where you live. Most will tell you the frequency of oil change is more important that brand or type of oil. If you want to get real serious about research try this website and go to the oil forums. http://www.bobistheoil |
If you use ANY of the above and change your oil per your owners manual, you will not have any oil related engine problems. I currently have about a 60 quart stash of nearly FREE oil this past year between Valvoline Nextgen and synthetic G-Oil. Last edited by audiokingman; 09-16-2012 at 06:09 AM..

Harper's Canada (!/?/…)
Abandon hope, all ye who enter the political fray: this is now Stephen Harper's Canada.
Well, at least for the rest of the decade. Then he'll give the keys back. Or be dead. One of the two.
Anyway, this premise is birthed from the minds of Ipsos Reid pollster Darrell Bricker and long-time Hill journalist-cum-columnist John Ibbitson in their new book: the Big Shift.
While the musical stylings of Bricker & Ibbitson might strike a chord with those of you at home sharpening your protest signs, audibly counting down the days until Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition takes down that brutal tyrant in the next election, ("SEVEN-HUNDRED AND NINETY EIGHT.") there's little doubt that the majority of "progressive" Canadians are fearful that their "progressive" view of Canada will be further under attack once Harper and his "neo-conservative" government wins another term.
It's a load of hooey.
I'll put a little disclaimer here that I'm going largely off second-hand info about the book, filled with a composite of what many pundits have been saying months. While I look forward to reading the book, I haven't quite got to it yet.
Let me begin with a theory. Put down that coffee cup, lest you break your computer screen:
The Liberal (or, liberal, lIBERAL, or any other capitalization scheme) golden age never ended.
The massive logical step that most advancing this Canada-is-more-conservative-than-ever theory step over is that Harper isn't really that conservative. His government is, sure, more ideological than its predecessors. It has placed more of an importance on crime fighting, military might and government efficiency, sure, but those views were eschewed, often, by Chretien's right-leaning Liberal government for most of the 90s. The only difference, oddly, is that Chretien often abandoned many of his big projects in the face of a big, hairy, deficit. Harper forges on, unabashed.
While the Liberals ran a style more managerial and political, Harper's government is ideological and legacy-driven — politics, often, doesn't enter the policy arena. But, in practise, the two governments aren't doing anything tremendously different. Certainly the trappings of Harper's government are a little worrying — an unapologetic disdain for the press, and the workings of parliament — but that could perhaps be chalked up to more the hyperpartisan and scandal-obsessed reality we live in moreso than Harper himself.
None of the 'hidden agenda' baloney has ever materialized. The scandals are hardly on par with the breathtaking manilla-envelope backdoor antics of the Liberal Party. Harper's government, in effect, is just a Progressive Conservative regime with a little more backbone.
So the natural assumption that his continued governance is somehow emblematic of an Ayn Rand Typhoid Fever sweeping the nation is simply absurd. Surely the only ones who think Harper is a arch-conservative zealot are those not voting for him.
Now, the caramel center of the Bosom Buddies argument, the one wrapped in delicious milk chocolate, is that Harper maintains a sort of impregnable fortress that ensures his next victory. A Postmedia review of the book phrases it as thus:
"A coalition of influence and power has shifted to the West and Ontario suburbs, where the Tories are strong. Waves of immigration, much of it from Asia, have brought conservative values."
Yeah, no.
Consider the following:
The NDP, Liberals, and Greens, as a bloc, received 800,000 more votes in 2011, over 2008. The Conservatives, only 600,000. The Conservatives had, by far, the best vote efficiency (number of their votes that were cast in ridings they won, over votes cast in ridings they lost) at 75%, vs the NDP's 52%, the Liberals abysmal 21% and the Green's 6%. Of the 43 seats the Liberals lost, nearly two-thirds were lost in Ontario and more than a third were lost to the NDP. The logic that the free-falling Liberal vote was the catalyst both for the NDP rise and the Conservative majority isn't entirely correct — the most significant NDP bumps outside of Quebec, (+8% BC, +6% SK, +8% ON, +8% NB) cannot have come entirely from the Liberals, and is probably due in large part to siphoning off Conservative support.
Okay, so what does that hodgepodge of numbers mean?
This shit is: Really. Fucking. Complicated.
Trying to pass the buck on suburb-dwelling minivan-connoisseurs in Alberta and Ontario, or conservative Chinese people is a tad absurd.
First off, the notion that establishing a Western bloc was the stepping stone to Harper's majority government is cuckoo banana pants. Since 2004, the Conservatives have picked up only four more seats in the West. They've lost one in BC, gained one in Alberta, and gained four in Manitoba. Given the NDP's strong position in British Columbia and Saskatchewan, gaining nutrients from the rotting corpse of the Liberal Party that used to exist there, it seems entirely plausible that in 2015 — or even by way of some by-elections that may pop up — the NDP could erode the edges of this so-called Western base.
Of those 69 Conservative seats in the West, about 12 were seriously 'in play' for the NDP and Liberals in 2011 (within about 5,000 votes.)
And Mulcair is not a stupid man. While Layton position himself as a bon Quebecois in a years-long gambit to win over francophones, Mulcair is playing a similar game without our resource-rich provinces.
And the four seats that the Tories picked up on the other Coast, with all those damned unemployed fisherman, seems like but a flash in the pan. Polls show that East Coasters are simultaneously burying the hatchet with the Liberals and realizing that there's some sort of NEW Democratic Party ("When'd that get thar, b'y?") Eric Grenier over at ThreeHundredEight reckons the Tories could lose seven seats in the Atlantic if an election were held today. With the government still getting hammered on EI changes, that number could easily rise.
So that brings us to Ontario.
No doubt Ontario is the key to Harper's success. While before he managed to cobble together a minority thanks to a tanking Liberal Party, a fractured opposition and some West coast support, Ontario pulled through just in time to stave off a difficult situation in the face of that pimply-faced NDP.
So this is where those suburbanites and New Canadians delivered the Conservative majority, right?
Only 15 of the Tory pick-ups in Ontario were in heavily immigrant or suburban areas, all from the Liberals. Those ridings were won, on average, by about 3,000 votes (range of 26 to 10,000.)
So this magical coalition of Westerners and immigrants (riffing on "Money and the ethnic vote," I guess) simply does not exist.
I posit a theory even more radical than everything stated here thus far:
People like the Conservative government.
Canadians, by and large, vote for four reasons: ideology, competence, tradition, ignorance.
The latter two, I believe, are virtually constant, and are — to an extent — synonymous. Paradoxically, both party members and I-vote-[X]-because-as-a-[Y]-I-have-to voters are almost the same, at least in terms of deciding election outcomes.
Now, Bricker and Ibbitson, as well as most Canadian pundits, would have you believe that ideology is the deciding factor in the Conservative rise to power. I believe that is categorically, demonstrably, and entirely wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong and wrong.
Competence, or the belief that a party or party leader is the best to govern the economy/healthcare/justice system, is the deciding factor in every election since at least 2006.
I would certainly argue that tradition, or complacency, tends to take over and that entropy erodes the need to think about a decision — i.e. how Chretien stayed in power for so long — Harper has stayed in power because he has consistency shown that, at the very least, he's better than the other leaders at managing the economy and, at best, he's simply the right guy for the job.
But competency is, by far, the most fickle of the four variables. Jean Chretien, Paul Martin, Gordon Campbell, Dalton McGuinty, Brian Mulroney, and a host of others were seen as leaders who would never die — until they did.
The assertion by believers like Bricker and Ibbitson is that Harper will weather any scandal, incompetence or challenge from a more competent leader because his electoral fortress is so strong. That, I think, is vastly over-simplified, in that they are painting many Canadians as mindless automatons who are mere conduits for a vote to a pre-ordained party decided by Ideological Robot Jesus. I, myself, don't believe that theory.
Harper has won these elections because he is simultaneously seen as the best candidate to weather the economic storm, and because everyone else looks like a barely functional vegetable compared to him. Or some nuance thereof.
What betrays this 'Harper's decade' school of thought is actually a crucial tenet of the belief — the idea that it will only last a decade. Surely our resource economy is only beginning to expand, and meanwhile our e-Harmony chat session with Asia is only the beginning foreplay in what will end up being a long-term relationship where they give us a lot of citizens (not a perfect metaphor, granted.)
So why not the Harper century?
No, Harper's reign is as precarious as just about any in Canadian history. Certainly much more so than Chretien's. As I've written many times, Harper's grasp on the economy will slip like a hot dog through buttery hands as the economy turns around and Canadians look for competency in other areas. This is, perhaps, the NDP's long-game on the road to 2015.
But if Harper does win again, it is not a symbol of the intense factorization of Canadians politics. It's just Canadians sitting on a table, with three resumes in front of them, and deciding to renew Harper's contract.

Surrounding the car are VHS graduates from the 1960s. The theme of this year's reunion, Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Reunion with DJ and the Cats, was all about rock n roll music from the late 1950s and early 1960s. Following the reunion banquet and meeting a public dance featuring DJ and the Cats was held at the Vivian Dance Hall.

Living in Sonoma County, California, the roads are fraught with hazards of glass, thorns, nails and pot holes, among others. The Schwalbe One tires are not only amazingly puncture resistant, but extremely lightweight. If these stay as bullet-proof as they have so far, I can see using them for a long time. If not, the next step is to Schwalbe One tubeless.

Definition of deuteric in English:
Syllabification: deu·ter·icPronunciation: /d(y)o͞oˈterik
Geology- Relating to or denoting alteration of the minerals of an igneous rock during the later stages of consolidation.More example sentences
- Although such grains would have low Curie points of c.250 deg C they invariably undergo subsolidus exsolution during magmatic, deuteric and/or hydrothermal stages of cooling to produce ilmenite lamellae hosted by Ti-poor magnetite.
- This mineral is probably the product of incipient magmatic or deuteric oxidation that is apparently absent at Isparta.
- Nb-dominant kupletskite and, similarly, Zr-rich astrophyllite in the altered pegmatites are thought to be extremely late-stage phases, the result of remobilization of Nb and Zr by postmagmatic deuteric fluids.

From the Horses' Mouth
Ian Henson
It's too bad that football players don't have intro songs like baseball players do or Derek Wolfe would have a heck of one. It's hard to find something new about him to say that I haven't said already, but that injury in the third week of preseason was sobering. He will come back reinvigorated, with a new take on the season and what his goals are-- it's only natural after coming so close to losing it all. I know that comparing him to Houston phenom J.J. Watt is silly, but Von Miller felt comfortable doing it, so you can too.
Big "I won dinner from Bronco Mike because CJ Anderson made the final 53" Pete
I love me some Derek Wolfe, but I think people need to temper expectations for him. I'm hearing people say that he should get 10, 12, 15 sacks.... STOP, Take a deep breath, and back away from your computer. Look, I like Wolfe as much as the next guy, but in this defense, he's not getting double digit sacks. I hope I'm proven wrong, but I think that 8 sacks would be an amazing year from him. But who knows, maybe he really is the next J.J. Watt... I'm just not buying it. Either way, Wolfe is definitely an important part of our defense which makes him an important part of our team.
Bronco "Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while Pete, STFU" Mike
Can Wolfe take that next step in year 2 and become a more dominant force a la JJ Watt? I'm not saying you can expect to see 20+ sacks, but can we start to approach double digits in year 2? He is more of a power guy. I don't think he has the unique skillset that someone like Watt does who takes the term "disruptive force" to a whole other level. I do think he has the talent, work ethic, and motor to consistently be a strong factor in shutting down the running game as well as disrupting the passing game. Hopefully the full moon is rising for this Wolfe-man.

Reply to this commentIt doesn't allow me to hold space & drag the screen.~
Reply to this commentAwesome experiment but do me a favor by upgrading it and having it where I can change coors, and be able to delete or undo without having to undo the entire drawing.
Also make it so say if we have a picture of something already we can be able to upload it into a drawing sketch format and be able to work off of our uploaded drawing. Just some ideas :)
Larry: Very sorry about that. Unfortunately it's impossible for me to filter out offensive content since there's thousands of sketches and just one of me.

Reply to this commentThis is a great experiment!! However, I was going to show this to my grand daughter because she loves to draw. Then, I say some of the porn art being posted and changed my mind. Such a disappointment!!
Reply to this commentThis is really cool! It would be even better if we could change the amount of vibration for individual lines.

Reply to this commentvery nice art, love sketch art ! Μπράβο!!!
Reply to this commentI really love this experiment. I was talking to a friend of mine moths back about how cool it would be to make a digital sketchpad seeing as I spend so much of my time on my laptop. Actual drawing has kind of become an after thought. Two things though, one of which may be a configuration problem on my part. My pen lags a moment before drawing so it takes away from the natural experience of drawing. the second is primarily because of the first; there is no eraser tool. I didn't mind when i was roughing out my idea but when i went in with thicker lines to outline the lag issue when starting a new line made me need to erase so i had to scrap the whole thing. I love the experiment though. I hope there is an official release.

Reply to this commentThanks for the ideas everyone. There is definitely more potential to explore in terms of 3D sketching :)
Reply to this commentI agree with Hizar.Also, I suggest you could make it so you could change the thickness by the up and down cursor keys.
Reply to this commentyou made even a stick figure walk in 3D :) also, the second example is really nice and precise
Reply to this commentu rock! it is AWESOME! especially since my pic is one of the featured ones! =D
Reply to this commentHello Hakim. The project is simple and great at the same time. But, to make more sense of 3d , it could be useful a tool to decide the plain where to draw when rotating the paint. So people can draw realistic 3d drawings.
Reply to this commentVery cool :) I've been loving your demos, keep it up.
Reply to this commentPretty cool. Perspective would be nice though...

Could someone please tell me how to make recovery discs foe my desk top. It has vista, got a virous just a few days after installing Norton 360. Can't even do a system restore. Need to wipe it and reinstall drivers but it did not come with recovery discs. Please any help will be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks
How-To Geek Forums / Windows Vista
(Solved) - recovery discs
(9 posts)- Remove Solved Status
To restore an Acer lappy see here: http://www.geekpolice.net/t744.....-erecovery
But this brings you back to day one, the day you bought it. All you data will be lost, unless you backed the data up.
Nearly all machines have the facility to burn the OS and you should have done this after purchase, initial setup would have given you this option anyway.
If you have to reinstall, which looks likely, then we should look at imaging once you are safe and securely back into windows, all software installed.
The image will then get you back pretty quick.
In my opinion, Norton is not a very good choice at all, as an A/v or backup.
Norton has caused so many problems with clients, we have gone elsewhere for a solution.
i found vista_recovery_disc. clicked on it and it opens a window called NTI meddia maker 8, with a smaller window on top of it called write disc, with the options of simulate, write, after burning, advanced, help, cancel, start. but i dont know if it is writing the os or not.
QUESTION: in the computor window where it list the different drives and all, is the ACER (C:) drive that has 88.7GB free of 144 GB- is that where the os is at? (the recovery partition?)

Teams named for World Womens; Canada wins exhibition game
OTTAWA Canada and the United States named their teams for the 2012 IIHF Ice Hockey Womens World Championship in Burlington, Vermont (USA).Host and reigning champion USA selected three goalkeepers, seven defenders and 13 forwards following a camp in Lake Placid and an exhibition game in Ottawa Canada won 1-0.The roster includes four-time Olympian Jenny Potter and Julie Chu, who has played on three Olympic teams. A total of 15 players are on the roster who helped Team USA win the world title in 2011.Defenceman Megan Bozek and forward Taylor Wasylk are making their U.S. Women's National Team debut at the senior level. An additional four players will be competing in their first IIHF Women's World Championship, including defenceman Michelle Picard and forwards Hannah Brandt, Jillian Dempsey and Amanda Kessel.We had some extremely difficult decisions to make after a great week of training and competition in Lake Placid, said Reagan Carey, director of women's hockey for USA Hockey. Each player was challenged to become better and each player rose to the occasion. I look forward to this team having the opportunity to defend our world title on home ice.The Canadians will certainly have something against these plans. On Saturday they defeated the U.S. 1-0 in a pre-event game in Ottawa. Laura Fortino scored the only goal of the game one day before the roster cut.The roster includes eleven players who won the last gold medal for Canada at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver.This weeks selection camp was extremely competitive and we had some tough decisions to make, said head coach Dan Church. Were excited about the final roster and look forward to heading to Burlington for what will be a great week of world-class womens hockey.The two North American rivals will meet on the opening day for their preliminary-round game on 7 April in Burlington. The event ends one week later with the medal games on 14 April.For rosters announced by the European teams click here.Team USAGoalkeepers:Brianne McLaughlinMolly Schaus, Boston Blades (CWHL)Jessie VetterDefencemen:Kacey Bellamy, Boston Blades (CWHL)Megan Bozek, University of Minnesota (WCHA)Lisa ChessonGigi Marvin, Boston Blades (CWHL)Michelle Picard, Harvard University (ECACH)Josephine Pucci, Harvard University (ECACH)Anne Schleper, University of Minnesota (WCHA)Forwards:Hannah Brandt, Hill-Murray School (Minn.)Julie Chu, Montreal Stars (CWHL)Kendall Coyne, Northeastern University (HEA)Brianna Decker¸ University of Wisconsin (WCHA)Jillian Dempsey, Harvard University (ECACH)Amanda Kessel, University of Minnesota (WCHA) Hilary Knight, University of Wisconsin (WCHA)Jocelyne Lamoureux, University of North Dakota (WCHA)Monique Lamoureux-Kolls, University of North Dakota (WCHA)Erika Lawler, Boston Blades (CWHL)Jenny Potter, Minnesota Whitecaps (WWHL)Kelli Stack, Boston Blades (CWHL)Taylor Wasylk, Boston College (HEA)Team CanadaGoalkeepers:Shannon Szabados, Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (ACAC)Geneviève Lacasse, Providence College (HE)Charline Labonté, McGill University (CIS)Defencemen:Jocelyne Larocque, Manitoba Maple Leafs (WWHL)Lauriane Rougeau, Cornell (ECAC)Laura Fortino, Cornell (ECAC)Courtney Birchard, Brampton (CWHL)Meaghan Mikkelson, Alberta (CWHL)Catherine Ward, Montreal (CWHL)Tessa Bonhomme, Toronto (CWHL)Forwards:Meghan Agosta, Montreal (CWHL)Rebecca Johnston, Cornell University (ECAC)Gillian Apps, Brampton (CWHL)Caroline Ouellette, Montreal (CWHL)Jayna Hefford, Brampton (CWHL)Bailey Bram, Mercyhurst College (CHA)Brianne Jenner, Cornell (ECAC)Jennifer Wakefield, Boston University (HE)Haley Irwin, University of Minnesota-Duluth (WCHA)Hayley Wickenheiser, University of Calgary (CWUAA)Natalie Spooner, Ohio State University (WCHA)Vicki Bendus, Brampton (CWHL)Marie-Philip Poulin, Boston University (HE)

"It's a lie. It's a bunch of sad strangers photographed beautifully, and… all the glittering assholes who appreciate art say it's beautiful 'cause that's what they wanna see. But the people in the photos are sad, and alone… But the pictures make the world seem beautiful, so… the exhibition is reassuring which makes it a lie, and everyone loves a big fat lie."—Alice (Closer, 2004)

Dear Robert,
As you may have heard by now, NBA Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver announced tonight at the NBA Draft Lottery that the Bobcats will have the No. 2 pick in the 2012 NBA Draft. We are extremely excited about having the opportunity to add a quality player to our growing young nucleus.
I'd also like to say thank you to our General Manager Rich Cho and Vice Chairman Curtis Polk, who were our team's representatives in New York tonight.
Our basketball operations staff has already begun preparing for what we consider to be one of the most important offseasons in our team's history, and tonight's announcement makes this summer all the more significant. Our scouting staff has been hard at work to identify the best possible players for us to add to our team, not only through the draft but also through other avenues such as free agency and trades, as we proceed with molding this franchise into one that our fans can be proud of and that can compete at the top levels of the NBA.
We know that many people will be watching as we work toward the NBA Draft on June 28. We hope you will enjoy this exciting time with us.
On behalf of the entire Bobcats organization, thank you for your continued loyalty and support.
Rod Higgins
President of Basketball Operations
Charlotte Bobcats

On May 26, 2009 I found Budget Pet Care on the web, offering a large savings on Frontline Plus. I placed my order for a years supply for $94.58. This went to PayPal and the money was deducted from my account the next day. I rec'd email confirmation from Budget Pet Care, verifying my order, and telling me that it would be shipped. Well, I never received the order.
When I try to call the number just rings out. This is obviously a real scam. Avoid them. They won't answer the phone, and don't reply to email.

I ordered some flea/tick meds from my dogs online from this company with good prices (turns out its in Canada). I had ordered Frontline Plus. When it came, it came with Frontline Combo instead and a note that said they were oversold, that this was the same stuff manufactured by the same company, just for sale in the UK.
Bottom line if this information is not posted or advertised before purchase the company is running a scam.

I ordered from this company about 10 days ago, it was my first time and I needed fleas medication for my 4 pets. Their low cost attracted me and I decided to buy their product. I don't like ordering online so after couples days I wanted to check their review to make sure it wasn't a scam. Sure enough I found that site and saw all the bad reviews ! I started worrying. I told myself if I do not receive my products in their ''time frame '' I will take actions.
8 days after ordering, I received my product, intact...I now needed to make sure they were authentic..the packaging looks different, but it smells like advantage and I have not seen a fleas on my pets as yet...
I told myself after reading the negative review, that if I had a positive experience I will post it on this site. When people are mad they blog, but when people are satisfied they do not blog on it..It is expensive to care for pet and fleas medicine ..so I recommend this company, free shipping, no taxes and a saving of $30 or more ! give them the benefits of the doubts

I ordered on March 1st. and received the products on March 11th. ( I was starting to worry since they had charged my CC at the time of purchase)
I had a unopened box of the same product left over from last year, I compared the box and interior packaging, The only difference was that the weight was listed in Kg instead of Lbs.
If it is a fake product it is a very good fake, I will continue this review as I use it on my three dogs.

I ordered the Advantix on April 10. I called on April 29th to ask about it. The lady said it was backordered but had arrived and had been shipped. I asked the date and she said Sunday the 26th. I asked if it was possible to ship on Sunday then she said she made a mistake, it was Monday the 27th. Yeah right!
Now I have to wait 21 business days. So for two weeks there was no email to say the item was backordered. They charged my credit card on the day of the order even though they had no stock.

Beware-scam-cheat!!! First and only ever purchase. Switches brandname Frontline plus to Frontline combo that is not even listed on their website. Over 2 weeks for delivery-rude customer service if you happen to get someone after numerous attempts. Small print so they say, I could not find, that they have the right to switch products at their choice without notifying you. Same price????? For product I did not order. Only 5 days to return they charge $5 restock and I pay return postage. Good luck on getting refund. I have already filed dispute with my credit card company.
Usually I am very careful but I got suckered by this so-called wonderful company. Run and don't look back.
