Breathtakingly Beautiful! I originally went in to try on another dress that was on a mannequin. Well this dress was on a mannequin as well, so I thought why not? Mind you, I already purchased a dress from a competitor. The moment I tried on this dress, the original dress that I came in for and the one at home were distant memories. This dress is breathtakingly beautiful. The soft-white is the color I purchased and it gives it a vintage flair! I cannot wait to wow my fiance as I walk down the aisle. I felt like that a movie star as I paraded in the mirrors and as other shoppers stopped to smile and compliment. This dress is truly a winner!!! February 18, 2014
Better in Person This was actually the first dress I tried on out of 10 dresses, and it ended up in my top three. The first time I tried it on it was in a sample size too big, but then she went and found a sample size that would fit me better, and as soon as I came out of the dressing room my Mom started crying! I knew then that this was my dress. This picture does it no justice whatsoever. I am in love with it. Perfect for my rustic themed outside wedding!! January 17, 2014
Definitely my best purchase EVER! I bought this dress back in June and I absolutely love it!!! Pictures DO NOT do this dress justice, it looks a million times better in person and on. I cant wait to renew my vows with my husband in May and walk down the aisle in this dress! LOVE LOVE LOVE it and I know my husband won't be able to take his eyes off of me! :) September 25, 2013
Wow I just tried this dress on in the store and LOVED it. The photos here are just terrible and don't represent it well. I'm a textbook hourglass figure, the size 12 sample was a bit snug through the hips but this made me look awesome. Even got some wows from other brides families :) The different textures in the skirt are fun and add interest, the sequins add some sparkle and the pointed train looks very flattering and unique. Now I have to decide between this and VW351177! September 16, 2013

Category — Power Hungry (Bryce)
Power Hungry: The Myths of "Green" Energy and the Real Fuels of the Future—by Robert Bryce (nutrition for energy appetites)
[Editor note: Bryce's Power Hungry, released today, is his second book on energy after Gusher of Lies and fourth book overall.]
In his brand new book Power Hungry, energy journalist and Austin apiarist Robert Bryce marshals many numbers to plainly show how modern culture exacts power from energy to save time, increase wealth, and raise standards of living. Bryce also dispenses common sense to citizens and policy makers for an improved environment, a more productive economy, and a more enlightened civil society.
Inspired by enegy writings of Rockefeller University's Jesse Ausubel, and the University of Manitoba's prolific Vaclav Smil, he makes the case for continuing down the path of de-carbonizing our machine fuels—a process begun two hundred years ago when we turned from wood to fossil fuels and huge reservoirs of impounded water. As the world's population continues to urbanize, people will inevitably demand cleaner, healthier, environmentally sensitive energy choices.
Today, the world uses fossil fuels (oil, gas, and coal) for approximately 86 percent of its energy, getting a lot of bang for its buck. Bryce offers convincing evidence that, over the next several generations, particularly since broad energy transformations require much time and financial investment, relatively cleaner burning natural gas will provide a bridge to pervasive use of nuclear power—" the only always-on, no-carbon source that can replace significant amounts of coal in our electricity generation portfolio." And if nuclear ultimately becomes the centerpiece for the electricity sector, which constitutes about 40 percent of our total energy use, this development would accelerate the de-carbonization of the transportation and heating sectors as well.
His narrative transcends the current climate change debate. He thinks the evidence on either side is equivocal, at best provisional, and, even if it could be proven conclusively that humans were responsible for precipitously warming the earth by producing a surfeit of carbon dioxide, there is little that could be done about the situation now that would be consequential or practical, except embrace imaginative adaptation approaches.
Four "Imperatives"
Bryce organizes his ideas around four interrelated "Imperatives" that serve as a prime motif for human history and explain much contemporary circumstance: power density, energy density, scale and cost. He shows that, although energy is the ability to do work, what people really crave is the ability to control the rate at which work gets done—power. Performing work faster means more time to do something else. This begets an appetitive feedback loop, where more power unleashes more time to produce more power. As the scale of this process increases, costs are reduced, making what power creates more affordable.
In terms of economic efficiency and improved ecosystems, producing the most power in the smallest space at a scale affordable by all is what present and future enterprise should ensure. [Read more →]

Hi All New to forum but not to the D3
Hi All I have a problem with my A8 2005 D3 3.0 TDI. My battery recently got drained by a light staying on overnight. So tried to jump start it as I have before without problem. However this time the car kind of lost the plot soon as I put the key in if started trying to start without me turning but wouldn't release the key from the ignition I had to use a pin in the hole next to the ignition to release it which didn't stop the lights flashing off and on in the end I had to disconnect the leads. Rather alarmingly as I went to disconnect the leads I noticed my brand new jump leads on fire!! Fortunately there was nothing visibly burnt but no idea if I've damaged anything internally. I disconnected the battery and recharged it with my home charger refitted it but same result with lights and ignition not releasing key and turning over soon as I put key in? I'm at a total loss any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards Axell
When i search in a3/s3 8l forum why does the 'search result' only show this topic? Tia
Me too very odd.
And me also

The first major kickboxing event of 2012, It's Showtime in Leeuwarden, went down yesterday (Sat., Jan. 28, 2012), and it delivered in spades.
After years of enthralling audiences with his devastating power inside the ring and questionable antics outside of it, Moroccan "Bad Boy," Badr Hari, announced his intention to retire from kickboxing in order to pursue a career in professional boxing. For his final bout, he took on fearsome Turk Gokhan Saki, intending to leave on as high and exciting a note as he could.
Mission accomplished.
After a tentative start that saw Saki seemingly take Hari down into side control, the former split Saki's guard with an enormous right uppercut, sending him to the canvas. Incredibly, "The Rebel" got back to his feet, but was sent immediately back down by a glancing blow. Though he rose again, a third uppercut sealed the deal, giving Badr Hari a devastating knockout victory in his farewell fight.
Shine on, you crazy diamond.In the co-main event, hard-hitting giants Daniel Ghita and Hesdy Gerges squared off for Gerges's heavyweight title in a rematch of their spectacular clash in March 2011. Gerges claimed victory the first time around in an incredibly close affair that saw Ghita drop his hands and give the hard-punching Gerges several free shots to his jaw, laughing them off.
He'll be laughing even harder this time.
While Ghita is renowned for his bone-crushing leg kicks, it was his punching power that carried the day this time around. He very nearly dropped Gerges in the early going with a left hook, and late in the first round, landed that punch once again in even more devastating fashion. Gerges went down in a heap, limp on impact and the recipient of one of the most brutal knockouts in recent memory.
Welcome to the highlight reel, Hesdy. Sorry it couldn't have been under better circumstances.
It's Showtime 70kg "Fast and Furious" tournament champion Robin van Roosmalen was also in action, taking on crafty veteran Murat Direkci. The two put on a fantastic show, the careful rangefinding kicks of Direkci keeping him out of range of Roosmalen's colossal punches and Roosmalen bullying his way inside with big flurries. In the end, after a razor-close battle, Roosmalen walked away with a majority decision and Murat announced his retirement. He may not have gotten the win, but he certainly went out on a high note.
Golden Glory banger Errol Zimmerman took on young upstart Rico Verhoeven, who had recently defeated Hesdy Gerges by decision. Unfortunately for Rico, his luck apparently ran out after that effort, and after standing directly in front of the hard-hitting "Bonecrusher" for just a few seconds two long, ate a brutal combo in the middle of the first, capped off with a left hook that left him limp on the canvas.
Move your head or they'll move it for you, Rico.
High-flying Chris Ngimbi took on the crafty boxing of Murat Direkci in the second fight of the event, looking to land one of his patented long-range flying knees.
No such luck.
Direkci's punching prowess proved too much for Ngimbi, as Murat bullied him all across the ring for the better part of two rounds, never giving him the range necessary to get his offense going. Eventually, a heavy standing knee from Direkci split Ngimbi's guard, opening a nasty cut above the latter's right eye and prompting the doctor to stop it. An excellent performance from Direkci and an underwhelming one from the normally high-octane Ngimbi.
The main card began with a clash between Michael Duut and Anderson "Braddock" Silva (no relation to the UFC middleweight champion). The bout was mostly one-way traffic, with the boxing and defense of Silva proving too much for Duut, who was dropped in the second round and repeatedly found himself on the wrong end of a powerful counter left hook.
He ain't "The Spider," but he's no slouch.
Overall, the event was fantastic from start to finish, with several back-and-forth slugfests and some enormous knockouts. For play-by-play and quick results from the stacked undercard click here.

There are new plans to revive a long-forgotten, freshwater spring not far from downtown Tampa. Planners hope it will become a highlight of Tampa's new River Walk.
The water bubbles from the ground only a stone's throw from the Hillsborough River in Tampa Heights.
"That water is 75 degrees year-round," explained environmental scientist Tom Ries of Ecosphere, a company specializing in environmental restoration. "It brings out about 25,000 gallons per day."
Ries says the regional water managers didn't note the spring on its map. He only became aware of it after a nearby property owner mentioned it.
He discovered it's named Ulele Spring, named after an Indian princess who saved the life of a Spanish explorer. Rodney Kite-Powell of the Tampa Bay History Center says it was originally known as Magbee Spring, named for a local judge who fell into disfavor for helping Unionists after the Civil War. He says the spring used to be one of Tampa's main sources of drinking water.
Ries says the city of Tampa will contribute $50,000 toward the restoration project, with the remaining $250,000 cost paid for by grants from federal agencies and the Southwest Florida Water Management District.
Currently, water from the spring flows into the river through an old underground iron pipe. Ries has plans showing an open stream flowing from the spring with two pools before it reaches the river.
The plans show a bridge that will take pedestrians using the River Walk over the stream.
Ries says he expects the warm, fresh water will draw manatees and snook to the area when the project is complete.
He says construction should begin next summer.

I am pleased to stand with my colleagues today who are outraged at Nobel Peace Laureate President Obama's decision to wage war on Africa in Libya. At the outset, let me state that Libya is home to tens of thousands of foreign students and guest workers. The students come from Ethiopia, Eritrea and Somalia. The messages I have received from concerned Africans state that these young, innocent people, inaccurately labeled by the U.S. press as "Black mercenaries," have been trapped in hostile territory and are hated by the U.S.-allied Al Qaeda insurgents.

Cauliflower ear is one of the more common byproducts of grappling. There are the more famous ones such as Randy Couture's ear that was featured on ESPN the Magazine, or the balloon ear of James Thompson that Kimbo Slice popped during their 2008 bout (which is still one of the most watched fights in MMA history).
Today, another more gruesome iteration of these traumatized ears is floating the web after UFC middleweight and long time Judo practitioner, Hector Lombard posted a photo of his nasty stitched up ear. Check out the tweet below, but don't say I didn't warn you because this may ruin your appetite:
My yucky cauliflower ear twitter.com/HectorLombard/…— Hector Lombard (@HectorLombard) May 8, 2013
Lombard is currently partnered up with Mike Dolce and will be looking to shore up his diet for a possible drop down to 170 lbs. The former Bellator champ is currently 1-2 with the UFC with losses to Tim Boetsch and Yushin Okami.


text: On yahoo home page headlines their is a article about Stafford. It says in there that Smith will be having surgery on his thumb and will not be on the roster for the Dallas game bottom line. My guess is this happened just today in practice in a freak accident. Hope he gets better soon and this really sucks given our lack of running game we already have. Regaurdless I hope he gets better soon. Also, I wanted to ask POD if anyone thinks we need to add a bruiser for a back. Be it in a late round draft choice, free agent or how ever. I still think we need one. I know most of our problems are on the O-Line but we could use some meat in the back field. Morris is not doing anything and to old for a re-building team, Smith still recovering, Beat is too small, Brown is just not the talent we need IMHO.

Jamaica tops in services, says Caricom chief
CARIBBEAN Community (CARICOM) secretary general, Ambassador Irwin LaRocque has suggested that Jamaica is doing better in the trade in services across the region than most other countries.
While acknowledging that there is a massive gap in the trade of goods between Jamaica and the rest of the region that fall under the umbrella group, LaRocque said all the factors need to be considered.
"The trade imbalance being experienced by Jamaica reflects trade in respect of goods only. However, that is only part of the picture," LaRocque said at a breakfast meeting in Kingston, Friday.
The meeting, which involved leading members of the private sector, was staged by Strategic Corporate Interventions at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel.
"To consider the true picture of the balance of trade you must take into account trade in services in which it has been suggested that Jamaica has a comparative advantage, such as in cultural industries and professional services," the Caricom secretary general said.
However, LaRocque did not support the assertion of Jamaica's comparative advantage in services with figures, as he said data in trade in services is not readily available.
The trade imbalance in the region, which sees Trinidad and Tobago's exports to Jamaica being 10 times the value of Jamaica's exports to Trinidad and Tobago has been a public discussion point for several months.
Former industry and commerce minister Karl Samuda is among those who called for a review of Caricom trade systems, but former Prime Minister PJ Patterson and Attorney General AJ Nicholson have defended Jamaica's relationship with Caricom.
Meanwhile, with some commentators questioning the relevance and usefulness of the regional body to Jamaica, the Caricom secretary general has defended the achievements of the grouping.
LaRocque, who assumed his leadership position at the Caricom secretariat in August last year, listed some of the achievements of the regional body, including;
o The establishment of the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA)
o The Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC), which manages the main secondary school examinations in the region
o The Pan Caribbean Partnership Against HIV and Aids (PANCAP), which has enabled a 50 per cent reduction in the cost of anti-retroviral drugs to combat the deadly disease
o Negotiating as a group on the international stage, which has provided access to markets to the benefit of producers, manufacturers and service industries
o Acting collectively has afforded the region a greater presence in the international community to advance its concerns.
LaRocque also noted that Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller, in a statement last Wednesday, "left no doubt that her government was in full support of the regional movement and would do all that it could to strengthen Caricom."

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - The union representing faculty members at Pennsylvania's 14 state-owned universities says hundreds of educators plan to protest their stalled contract talks at a meeting of the universities' governing board.
A spokeswoman for the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculties says at least 400 union members plan to protest at Thursday's meeting of the State System of Higher Education board of governors.
Officials say union president Steve Hicks and board Chairman Guido Pichini both are expected to make statements at the board meeting.
The 6,000 faculty members represented by the union have been working without a contract since June 2011.
Both sides have tentatively agreed on pay raises similar to what other state employee unions received, but they disagree on issues that include health care and class sizes.

Review submitted: February 2, 2014 Date of arrival: January 25, 2014
The house was exactly how the pictures portrayed it but it was even more spacious in real life! Very well stocked kitchen with plenty of dishes, pots and pans, even a crock pot, rice cooker, blender and waffle iron! We ate all our meals there so that was an important feature for me, the cook! It is very well kept and clean. Even on the days when the sun did not shine much, the house is very light because of all the sky lights. The hot tub was a welcome feature in the cold evenings. There is a post office and small grocery store just 5 minutes from the house and if needed a pharmacy just 30 minutes away. The drive to Ft. Bragg is beautiful the entire way. We had our seven year old grandson with us, and he loved playing with the neighbor dogs that came often to the sliding glass door by the hot tub. He even gave them names! The beach at Manchester State Park was virtually empty and there is much sand for walking. The view is so peaceful and watching the cows grazing and hawks sitting on the trees outside the house was fun. There are plenty of games, puzzles, DVDs and even some books. It was about an hour drive to Ft. Bragg, but I could have easily spent the entire time staying at the house and exploring the beach and the small towns both north and south that were just 30 minutes away. We will go back. Well worth every penny. I would highly recommend it for getting away from everything and relaxing. The owner responded very promptly to every single question I asked. Good to deal with.

So close to Manchester Beach
Review submitted: January 10, 2014 Date of arrival: December 28, 2013
Great cozy home with skylights and windows that make it spacious. Private back deck with amazing views of the pastures and mountains that transforms into a sanctuary at night when immersed in the hot tub under the stars. Easy to find and very close to Manchester Beach. We'll be back and some of our friends too. Our three children didn't want to leave and enjoyed all the board games available in the house.

Review submitted: December 30, 2013 Date of arrival: December 24, 2013
I recommend staying here in this beautifully decorated immaculately clean home. Upon entering the home there awaited a welcoming wine bottle for the guest.There are lots of windows that make you feel so happy as the light beams in. On the back porch the view was so nice and relaxing.There sat two nice rocking chairs on the porch a place to read a good book, or just view the countryside.The area is so quite and serene.This place is great for all ages.The owner was very prompt in response to all my emails and questions.I hope that you too will come and stay and enjoy your time there.

A Wonderful Three Night Stay
Review submitted: November 23, 2013 Date of arrival: August 1, 2011
Thank you for a wonderful three night stay at Pacific View Retreat! Your home is cozy, comfortable, impeccably clean, bright and beautifully decorated. The views out back are breathtaking! Half the fun in staying here is the quiet and splendor of nature unfolding before us- birds circling, little frogs staying warm by the hot tub, views of the ocean, without unwelcome wind, misty fog rolling over the hills- always changing sunrise over the mountain tops, brilliant star gazing at night!
Your kitchen and bathrooms were lovely and well equipped. We appreciated all the information on things to do in the area, and we loved the bottle of wine that welcomed out stay.
Thank you we hope to come again.

What I Like About Pacific View
Review submitted: December 22, 2011 Date of arrival: December 19, 2011
What I Like About Pacific View Retreat
The View -- As advertised, the wooded pastureland behind the house is beautiful, with cows usually dotting the landscape. The Coastal Range rises above the pasture and a creek valley winds down from there to the ocean.
The Hiking -- Going to the beach is delightful, along a path that is easy and not too far, through wooded grassland. Manchester Beach is terrific for beachcombing, especially if you enjoy odd shapes of driftwood. Sand dunes, a vibrant estuary and a great circular route for joggers/hikers/walkers makes for fine wandering for those so inclined. An old abandoned house along the path and the beach make for interesting perusing if you are into wondering "who used to live here."
The Quiet -- the house sits at the end of a cul-de-sac and the neighbors are quiet.
The Location -- While Manchester, California is a drive from the Central Valley, the location is perfect for visiting Mendocino and Fort Bragg to the north, or Sea Ranch to the south. Golf is available at Little River Inn to to the north and Sea Ranch to the south (Little River Inn is a 9-holer with challenging greens, Sea Ranch is my "Pebble Beach" of the North Coast). Excellent tide pooling is available near the Point Arena light house (small parking area on the left, just before the road turns to the right when the light house is in sight), where you can also see sea lions and seals and take in bird or whale watching. If you are into geocaching, the old cemeteries near here are popular hiding spots, as well as the many beaches lining the coast.
The Wineries -- The Anderson Valley has many worthy wineries. I like Navarro best, for their natural pest control practices. The white wines here are excellent, the reds also commendable. A complimentary bottle of Husch wine is also provided to renters. If you like beer, do not miss the Anderson Valley Brewing Company (which also has a great disc golf course on the grounds of the brewery), just outside Boonville on the road to Ukiah (about a thirty to forty-five minute drive from Pacific View, depending on your preferred speed).
The Drive -- I like driving, and touring the coast and through the redwoods along highway 128 en route to highway 1 is outstanding.
Cooking -- My wife enjoys cooking and the kitchen area is well-stocked with the necessary utensils and cookware.
We come twice a year and enjoy every trip.

Our Stay at Pacific View Retreat
Review submitted: November 8, 2011 Date of arrival: November 3, 2011
Our stay at Pacific View Retreat was wonderful. We enjoyed everything about it. From the beautiful views of the landscape, the close accessiblity to the beach, and the comfort of the home itself, we could not have expected anything better than this. Upon arriving, we were welcomed by the warmth of the home itself. It had everything you would want, just like a home away from home, only better. A fully stocked kitchen with great pots and pans, great for cooking if that is what you like to do. The home itself is beautifully designed, you could tell that a lot of effort went into making sure the "guests" were made to feel welcomed. The master room bed is a "sleep number", so you are able to adjust the firmness to just what you like. Oh, and the skylights were perfect for looking at the stars and for hearing the lullaby of raindrops that put you right to sleep. We were also entertained by the cows and the horses in the meadow. We even saw some deer and a bobcat, it was really like a little "paradise". The house was impeccably clean, with fresh luxurious linens on the beds and in the bathrooms. Lots of hot water to use, it never ran out.The tv's were great, although we didn't use them much, we had such a good time just visiting with good friends and enjoying the hottub, the bbq and the good wine we all brought along. There are many things to do nearby also. But we'll leave that up to you to find, because that is half the fun itself. We hope all enjoy this retreat as much as we did. We highly recommend this home to those wanting to have a vacation to remember. Enjoy!!

A Perfect Honeymoon
Review submitted: March 17, 2011 Date of arrival: March 7, 2011
This property made for a perfect, romantic, and peaceful honeymoon week. The home has a very cozy and warm feeling. The views from the back porch are breathtaking. The hot tub is perfectly located for privacy while still taking in the gorgeous sceanery. The trail down to the ocean is conveniently located across the main road and is an easy and enjoyable walk to the ocean. We utilized the campsite (firepits & picnic tables) within the grove of trees just before the shoreline. The beach itself is beyond beautiful and you feel like the only people in the world on that stretch of sand.
This Cozy Cottage was the perfect start to our marriage. We will definately be back again.

Pacific View Retreat January, 2011-Wonderful!
Review submitted: February 3, 2011 Date of arrival: January 16, 2011
My husband and I love staying at the Pacific View Retreat! Being able to enjoy such a beautiful home while we enjoy the beauty of the coast is the best. It is so easy to relax after a day at the beach or shopping or wine touring. The owners sure knew what they were doing building their house with such wonderful views. We love to sit on the balcony in the morning or the late afternoon and breathe in the beauty of the meadow and surrounding mountain. The house is so comfortable and cozy even just staying at the house is a relaxing vacation in ifself! Thank you for sharing your wonderful relaxing vacation spot with us. We look forward to staying there again!

Why Read This ReportForrester evaluated five of the leading marketing asset management (MAM) vendors across 72 criteria and found that Open Text's Artesia DAM established early MAM leadership thanks to its enterprise capabilities and marketing data management focus. ClearStory Systems, EMC Documentum, and Interwoven place as Strong Performers, each with very different strengths and weaknesses. ClearStory has more MAM vision than the others. EMC Documentum struggles to deliver on its full vision of marketing support. Interwoven has strong content delivery capabilities, but needs to fully integrate its new analytics platform into its MAM approach. North Plains Systems squeaks into the Strong Performers category on the basis of good core digital asset management (DAM) functionality. Its integration map with other marketing technologies is not as fully developed as other products we reviewed.

The Cobb County sheriff is recovering at Grady Memorial Hospital after he and his chief deputy were involved in an accident on I-75 south at Northside Drive.
The accident happened Thursday around 2 p.m.
Cobb County Sheriff Neil Warren and Chief Deputy Milton Beck were traveling southbound on I-75 in the HOV lane when they were struck by a Ford pickup truck pulling a trailer.
The Ford crossed all southbound lanes when the driver of the truck lost control of the vehicle as he merged onto 75 from Northside Drive. He was hauling an excavator.
Both Sheriff Neil Warren and Chief Deputy Milton Beck were injured, but only the Sheriff was taken to the hospital.
As of Friday afternoon, Warren is still at the hospital undergoing additional testing and Chief Beck is back to work.
The driver of the pickup truck, Jeffrey Ronald Collins, 40, from Loganville, was charged with failure to maintain lane.
He and his passenger, Timothy Lamont Johnson, age 48 from Lithonia, were not injured.

Lebanon Reporter
---- — Lebanon — After an extremely successful regular season, the Lebanon Merchants went into the Midwest Prospects Baseball League Tournament with high hopes of repeating as league champions.
Those dreams came crashing down in a matter of hours Saturday afternoon.
After losing in the winners' bracket championship to the Midwest Tomahawks 8-6, the Merchants lost in the consolation final to the Franklin Cougars 6-1.
"We thought we had our pitching set-up but sometimes guys just don't have it," Lebanon manager Ron Ebert said. "We got really behind the eight ball in that first game, getting down 7-0. We had a chance in that game, we got the bases loaded and the tying run on second, but we didn't get it done. And I think that carried over into the second game. We were kind of lifeless out there. We only got four hits and that is not going to get it done anytime."
Midwest jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first two innings against Lebanon starter Eric Watt in the first game Saturday.
The Merchants clawed their way back later in the game, trailing just 8-4 heading to the final inning.
Lebanon loaded the bases with no one out, and scored two runs thanks to two more walks to get within 8-6.
But a pop out ended the game with the tying run on second and the winning run on first.
Things didn't start much better in the second game.
The first nine Merchants were retired in order.
"We thought we would hit a lot better in the second game," Ebert said. "We had a lot of good swings in that first game, especially late. But it was the opposite."
Franklin took a 2-0 lead in the top of the fourth inning with a two-run homer.
The Merchants came right back in the bottom half of the inning.
Nick Barrientos bunted his way on for the Merchants' first hit of the game.
Three batters later, Tyler Hampton walked to keep the inning alive for Derek White, who singled home Barrientos to cut the lead to 2-1.
The Merchants had a chance to tie the game in the fifth, when Michael Spolyar walked and two batters later Andrew Eiler singled to put runners on the corners, but a fly out and a strike out ended the inning.
The Cougars scored two in the sixth and two in the seventh to pull away.
Lebanon finished the year 16-9 and should return a strong team next season.
"I will take away a lot of good memories from this season," Ebert said. "It is just too bad it had to end this way. Next year, I think most of these guys will be back and if we can duplicate what we did this year, I will be more than happy."

The Heathrow protest has begun. Kudos to the protesters who will brave another round of tropical storms and the indignities of camping in a thistle patch to make their point. Shame on the authorities who are illegally using anti terrorist laws againt the protest to suppress the protest and try to establish a precedent that denies us the right to protest peacefully.
And yah, boo, sucks (OK, Im not ashamed of the kind of education I had) to those politicians whose weasel words try to convince us that more, bigger airports will be good for everyone, creating jobs and encouraging British business.
The only people who will benefit in the long term from expansion are those who deny climate change and champion globalisation. The public mood is shifting against them though, Little Nicky can feel it in his water.
But it is ironic, is it not, that the protest begins on the anniversary of the Peterloo Massacre, another crude and ham fisted attempt to crush a campaign for social change by the illegal and unjustified use of force.

A car South Carolina police were chasing after a suspected drug deal landed on top of a home in Columbia.
The State newspaper of Columbia reports that the home's residents were not hurt when the car slammed into the building early Saturday morning.
Columbia police say the incident started when an officer noticed what he said looked like a drug deal involving the vehicle that did not have headlights on. Police say the suspect did not stop for the officer's blue lights and sirens, and instead sped away before landing on the home in the Forest Acres neighborhood.
Police spokeswoman Jennifer Timmons said the suspect fled the crash scene, leaving behind crack cocaine and cash.

I hope you are enjoying summer with your family and friends. My mother came to visit San Francisco from Japan and we've been spending wonderful time together. We chat all day and night and it's amazing how much we can talk… My kids are very spoiled by my mom and they are having an amazing time with her. Since they don't get to see their grandparents from my side or my husband's much, this is a very special moment for them. I'm really happy to see that my mom is enjoying spending time with them as well.
Today I'm sharing my Chicken Karaage (鶏の唐揚げ) recipe at Cuisine Paradise. Ellena, the author of the website, is based in Singapore and she has been nominated for Singapore Blog Awards 2011. If you have visited her blog, you can tell why she's one of the 10 finalists! Her delicious food pictures and step-by-step recipes are very helpful for her readers, and I enjoy reading every single one of her posts. Have you seen her long list of recipes? She has been sharing her various recipes since 2005! I don't think I personally know anyone who has been blogging longer than she does. I truly appreciate her dedication in the food blog world. Please enjoy my Chicken Karaage and say hi to Ellena over at Cuisine Paradise.
Update: If you like more garlicky flavor Chicken Karaage, click here for the recipe.
- 5-10 Chicken thigh fillets, cut into 2 inch pieces (make sure each piece is about the same size so it takes about the same amount of time to deep fry.)
- ¼ cup potato starch (Please adjust if necessary. If you use 10 chicken thighs, probably about ½ cup)
- Oil for deep frying
- A couple of lemon wedges
- Ichimi Togarashi (Japanese red chili pepper flakes) (optional)
- ¼ onion, grated
- ½ Tbsp. ginger (1.5 inch ginger), grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 Tbsp. sake
- 1 Tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp. sesame oil
- 1 tsp. salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Green onion for garnish (optional)
- Put chicken in a Ziploc bag and combine all the ingredients for Seasonings in a bowl and mix all together.
- Pour the Seasonings into the Ziploc bag and rub the chicken well with hands. Keep it in the fridge for at least 1 hour, preferably 3-4 hours.
- In a wok, add oil to about half way full and heat it on medium high heat. When you put a chopstick in the oil and bubbles start to appear around the tip, the oil temperature is now around 170C (338F) and ready for deep frying.
- When oil is ready, take out the Ziploc bag from the fridge and transfer the chicken into a bowl and discard the marinade (liquid). Then add potato starch and mix quickly. You don't need to mix it evenly (as you see in the picture below). The uneven coating gives each piece its unique texture.
- Place each piece of chicken separately into the oil. Do not overcrowd the wok, fry maximum 5 pieces at a time. If you put a lot of chicken in the oil, the temperature will drop quickly and chicken end up absorbing too much oil. Make sure the oil temperature stays around 160 (320F) - 170C (338F) at all time. First, deep fry for 90 seconds. Then transfer the chicken onto a wire rack (if not, paper towel) to drain the oil for 4 minutes. Lastly, deep fry again at 180C (356F) for 45 seconds, or until golden brown.
- Transfer the chicken onto a wire rack to drain the oil. Before you start the next batch, skim/remove leftover crumbs from the oil in order to keep it clean.
- Serve the chicken with lemon wedges. Squeeze the lemon right before you eat. You can dip in Ichimi Togarashi if you enjoy spicy chicken.

Chiefs fans in the parking lots around Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday are reacting to the recent events surround a shocking tragedy.
The scene at Arrowhead Stadium more than 24 hours after Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher killed his girlfriend and then himself in front of general manager Scott Pioli and head coach Romeo Crennel wasn't noticeably somber.
Fans continued to gather around their tailgates and talk Chiefs football before Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers.
But some unsettled feelings remained as fans continued to figure out why a 25-year old starting linebacker for the Chiefs would commit such an act.
After talking to several groups of fans, the conversation continually turned to Zoey, the nearly 3-month-old daughter Belcher left behind. Several fans wondered what they could do to help her.
The parking lot at the practice facility, where Belcher took his life, remained relatively unchanged from Saturday morning. Media and fans are not allowed into that area. News trucks remained lined up along the practice facility.
Fans are trying to go through the motions and make this a regular day, but it's far from that.
"It didn't feel that great coming out here, but they said they were going to play the game, so we're out here," said Richard Eyberg who fired up the grill just like every other home Sunday.
But Eyberg said he is not sure playing the game Sunday was the best decision.
"I felt they should have pushed it until Monday night," he said.
Even though the food, the noise and the atmosphere all seemed pretty much normal, many fans wonder how it was going to feel inside Arrowhead.
Others, like one group from Wichita, said they bought tickets Saturday night to show support for the team.
Another said he donated an extra ticket to a children's charitable group. The phrase, "I felt I just had to be there," came from two different groups of fans.
Perhaps the most noticeable difference came when players, coaches and other team personnel, including Pioli, walked into the stadium.
Fans gathered on the hill above the tunnel where team staffers enter the stadium, just outside the players parking lot, and as Pioli pulled up and walked in, fans began cheering. He looked up, waved to the fans, acknowledging them, and walked into the facility.
Before kickoff, the crowd was asked to observe a moment of silence for victims of domestic violence and their families. There was no mention of Belcher.

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana's relentless push to improve the standardized test scores of its schoolchildren seems to be paying off: The state is reporting another year of record-breaking scores.
At a press conference Tuesday morning, Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Bennett said 71 percent of the nearly 500,000 students who took the ISTEP+ test in the spring passed both the math and English/language portions of the test.
That's a gain of one percentage point over last year and 8 percentage points since the 2008-09 school year. It's also the third successive year that students' passing rates have gone up on every portion of the test, which is administered to students in grades 3 to 8.
The 71 percent mark falls far short of the goal of a 90 percent pass rate that Bennett has been pushing for since he took office in 2005, but it didn't seem to dampen his enthusiasm.
"Hoosiers from all walks of life should greet this news with a standing ovation," Bennett said in a statement accompanying the release of the test scores. "More students are getting a world class education in our schools."
Bennett credited "Indiana's great teachers" for educating "a new generation of leaders and innovators who will build a more prosperous future for our state."
Those teachers are watching the test scores with some wariness. Under a "merit pay" law passed by the Indiana General Assembly in 2010, the test scores of their students now play a role in how those teachers are evaluated and paid.
The ISTEP test scores are also a critical component of the Indiana Department of Education's accountability model, which assigns schools and school districts grades of A through F.
Scores matter, but under the "growth model" used to evaluate both teacher pay and school grades, progress does, too. As critical as the the number of students who pass ISTEP is whether scores are improving from year to year.

(WMC) - Did your mother ever say, "You get what you pay for"? When it comes to hair extensions, she is right.
Wigs and weaves can cost women a fortune, but bargain hunting for a hair-do can quickly become a hair don't.
"It makes you feel beautiful," said the certified cosmetologist and self-proclaimed Queen of All Weaves, Brandi Covington-Windom. "If you're on a budget, you want to make sure you're purchasing the right hair."
In this case, the right hair is human hair.
Most human hair extensions fall into two categories: virgin hair, which is completely unprocessed, and Remy hair, which is processed with the cuticles intact.
Remy extensions are considered the gold standard and prices start at more than $100 a pack. A WMC Action News 5 producer tipped us to Instagram ads offering Remy hair extensions for less than half the price, we took our weave queen on a shopping spree.
Armed with a hidden camera, the WMC Action News 5 Investigators visited several beauty and wig stores to see if Remy hair extensions could really be purchased for a fraction of the cost.
In one store, a package that was labeled "Remy-quality, 100% human hair" was found for less than $20. When asked, the clerk admitted to us it was not human hair. The clerk said anything under $20 is anything but Remy. The clerk said the package was actually a blend. He also said customers can become confused.
The clerk said it could not be human hair despite what the packaging said on a Wink weave purchased from the Vivica A. Fox hair collection.
When it was put up against a curling iron...
"It's not 100 percent human hair. The hair has melted," said Covington-Windom.
In an email to the WMC Action News 5 investigators, a spokesperson with the Vivica A. Fox Hair Collection wrote:
"Vivica's Wink is a blend. Meaning that it is not 100% all human hair. It is mixed with 100% human hair and protein hair. To avoid confusion, we changed the packaging a year ago to reflect that more clearly. We do consider Vivica's Wink to be 'Remi Quality' regarding the texture. Also, Vivica's Wink can be curled upwards of 365 degrees. If the hair burned while you were curling it, it means that the heat was too high."
According to the FDA, the agency does not have the resources or authority under the law to approve product labeling before it hits store shelves. It is the manufacturer's and/or distributor's responsibility to ensure that products are labeled properly. Failure to comply with labeling requirements may result in a misbranded product.
"They're misleading women and even little girls who are interested in getting hair extensions," said Covington-Windom.
The FDA can bring regulatory action against a manufacturer if the label is false or misleading.
The lesson here: if the price is too good to be true, it probably is.
"It's not going to be presentable so, pretty much you've wasted your hard-earned money," said Covington-Windom.
Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance says if you purchased a product you do not believe lives up to the standards stipulated on the package, file a complaint.
Experts say if a weave appears to be too shiny or plastic looking, stay way. They also say you can spot a fake by the smell. They say synthetic hair smells plastic. Touch and smell the weave if you can.
Also, they say poor weaves can mat up after two days. You can also spot quality because 100 percent human hair does not melt.
Experts also say anything $20 or less is usually a blend. True Remy weaves can go for more than $100. Anything $10 or less is typically not human hair.

As a follow-up to the earlier article about Antonio Margarito's New York licensing status for his December 3 rematch with Miguel Cotto, the state just handed down the determination that Margarito has been granted his license. The fight will go on as scheduled at Madison Square Garden.
Freddie Roach at work, ladies and gentlemen. Less than a month after Manny Pacquiao closed up Antonio Margarito's eye, Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre did the same to Josh Koscheck at UFC 124. Props: Cagewriter
"I wanted Margarito to win. I mean my heart was with him and I thought he had a pretty good chance, but after Pacquiao cut him - I knew it was over. Manny is a gentleman, because he had Tony hurt in the 10th round and he could have finished him, but he let Tony survive. He showed his class and that is why he is the best. I am not ashamed to be on his list of victims because he is great." --Marco Antonio Barrera (BoxingScene.com)
This is what Manny Pacquiao did to Antonio Margarito last night at Cowboys Stadium. Keep in mind that Pacquiao was giving up about five inches of height, six inches of reach, and on the HBO scales, nearly 20 pounds. What Pacquiao did to the much bigger man last night was astounding, and also note that Margarito was game and did land some good shots. Manny Pacquiao is a force of nature.

Weigh-in Results: Manny Pacquiao (144.6) vs. Antonio Margarito (150) Watch the weigh-in video here.
Microscoped photo of Antonio Margarito's handwraps confiscated before the Shane Mosley fight. This came from the CSAC's agenda for its licensing hearing for Antonio Margarito. Unfortunately, since then, the CSAC's website has crashed. If the site goes back up, the full agenda was available here, while the CSAC's website is usually here. Of course, Margarito's argument all along has been that he didn't know about the illegal wraps, not that the wraps weren't illegal. This just goes to show a little better the scope of the illegality, since it was hard to see much from the original photo of the full wrap.
"I don't want to discuss anything about [the meeting with Jerry Jones] until after the Margarito thing in California. And then we'll announce the venue and the press conference schedule. I don't want to disrespect anybody or anything. California is going to decide on Wednesday and then whichever way California decides, various state commissions will decide whichever way they think is best." --Bob Arum (Robert Morales, BoxingScene.com) (Photo by Jed Jacobsohn/Getty Images)
"If he settles the issue with his suspension and the money is right, it's possible." --Miguel Cotto, on potentially fighting Antonio Margarito again. This is quite a change in tone from last year, when Cotto said Margarito would never make money fighting him again. (BoxingScene.com) (Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)
At Dan Rafael's ESPN blog, people inside boxing react to the news that Antonio Margarito is likely to be licensed by the morally bankrupt Texas State Athletic Commission. It's not positive.

DUP MEP Diane Dodds has criticised what she has described as the 'continuing lack of understanding' displayed by DEFRA Secretary Owen Paterson when delivering his speech to the 2012 Oxford Farming Conference.
The theme of the 2012 Oxford Farming Conference was Farming in Society – Confident Farmers delivering for Society.
Mrs Dodds said that in light of the budget negotiations on the CAP, this is a focus that is extremely timely, directing the attentions of policymakers to the vast array of benefits which farmers provide for society and highlighting the role that the CAP plays in facilitating these efforts.
"The Conference focused on a wide range of topics, including TB, whilst emphasising the value of technology and the role it can play toward increasing production, and in turn, farm profitability," said the MEP.
"The Genetically Modified debate was also engaged, with the view put forward that it can make a positive contribution to delivering increased food production and realising environmental benefits within the context of restricted natural resources. In respect of limited resources, the role of precision farming and the need to embrace such technology was also discussed.
"In relation to the CAP debate, my colleague on the Agriculture Committee Mairead McGunniess MEP explained the role of the European Parliament within the process, whilst outlining the complexities faced by the Committee, including the potential splits between new and old Member States. She shares my view on public goods, a view forgotten by many MEPs and National Governments; that the importance of food production represents the greatest public good. Food production and the availability of food are fundamental to human existence. While many deem public goods as environmental protection measures, enhancing biodiversity or improving water quality, we must not forget the greatest public good and the reasons why the CAP was first introduced – to in part provide food security," said Mrs Dodds.
"In the context of the upcoming budget negotiations, as well as those aimed at agreeing a final decision on the CAP, the most disappointing part of the Conference was the position put forward by DEFRA Secretary Owen Paterson. This is not a shock. I believe that this speech shows yet again that DEFRA as a department drives the minister's opinion, rather than the industry. It was a speech that highlighted and reiterated the need to end Pillar 1 direct payments to farmers; a position which is not in tune with the majority of farmers and indeed the devolved regions within the UK. In fact, this is a theme which whether a Labour or Conservative Minister delivers DEFRA takes off the shelf, gives a dust for the Oxford Farming Conference.
"Moving forward, I believe that a speech which deals with the distribution of profit within the supply chain, finding new markets for UK produce and reducing red tape with meaningful ways of achieving these objectives would be more constructive, and would find greater favour within the industry.
"Furthermore, if the market was willing to return a fair price for the goods produced, the industry's reliance on direct support would be reduced," said Mrs Dodds.
"Ultimately, given rising inputs costs, bad weather, stagnant farm gate prices and the lack of profitability on farms, delivering a speech which called for the abolition of the only safety net which has allowed many farmers to stay afloat was unwise and unhelpful. Mr Paterson missed the theme of the conference and in so doing, has done little to boost confidence amongst the farming community."

Access Price Regulation and Price Discrimination in Intermediate Goods Markets
AbstractWe consider a model of a monopolistic network operator who sequentially offers two-parted access charges to symmetric downstream firms. We are particularly interested in analyzing an alternative to current regulatory practice of prescribing access. In particular, we look at the possibility of restraining the input monopolist's market power by endowing downstream firms with a regulatory option: In case they disagree with the contracts proposed to them, downstream firms can claim a regulated access price. It turns out that this form of regulation may prevent foreclosure even though allowing for price discrimination in the intermediary market. It proves itself more beneficial to welfare than the current practice of prescribing access prices above marginal cost. Interestingly, even though one expects discrimination against the first mover, non-discriminatory input prices below cost can occur when the monopolist faces the alternative of a rather strictly cost-oriented regulated access price. Non-discrimination rules will either not become effective or result in less optimal price levels.

---- — The new five-screen movie theater in Logansport will start offering current movies Oct. 25 with free screenings of recently released films in the days leading up to the grand opening, a press release from the multiplex's manager states.
Mary Max Cinemas Logansport 5, located at 3910 Lexington Road, will kick off a week-long celebration with an invitation-only VIP ribbon-cutting ceremony for city and county leaders Oct. 21. The theater will open to the public the following day with free screenings of recently released movies included with complementary soft drinks and popcorn through Oct. 24.
While these shows are free of charge, the press release suggests a donation of $2 per person that will go to the Cass County 4-H Association, Logansport Babe Ruth League and the music departments of Cass County high schools.
Richard Dieffenbach, general manager of the theater, said more information on when and what movies will be screening will be available in the coming weeks at marymaxcinemas.com and its Mary Max Cinemas Logansport 5 Facebook fan page.
The week-long event leads up to the grand opening Oct. 25, when the multiplex will start screening current movies. Early bird shows before noon, which Dieffenbach said will likely only be offered on Saturdays and Sundays, will be $4.50 for all ages. Matinee shows between between noon and 6 p.m. will be $6 for all ages. Evening shows after 6 p.m. for ages 12 to 59 will be $8.50 on Fridays and Saturdays and $8 Sunday through Thursday, $6.50 for moviegoers 60 and older on all nights, $6 for ages 6 through 11 on all nights and $7.50 for members of the U.S. military on all nights. All shows for moviegoers 5 and younger will be $4.50.
Free refills on all sizes of popcorn, soft drinks and slushes will be available as well.
After construction delays throughout the summer, the theater's three auditoriums with 29-foot-wide screens and seating for about 75 and two auditoriums with 40-foot screens with seating for about 200, all with stadium seating equipped with high-back rocker chairs, will be ready for films and visitors in just more than two weeks' time, the release states.
All theaters will be equipped with digital sound and projection and two will have 3-D capability.
"It's more in line with a bigger city, as opposed to a smaller town theater," Dieffenbach said.
The theater also aligns with the Americans with Disabilities Act to make parking, entering and exiting, buying tickets, sitting in the theaters and using restrooms easier for those with disabilities. Hearing-impaired receivers, closed-caption receivers and braille menus will be available upon request.

Travel and transportation by rail will be free from service tax for another three months at least.
The negative list regime came into effect from July 1, but Dr Manmohan Singh — who now holds the Finance portfolio also — refrained from adding an effective 3.6 per cent service tax levy on rail transport of such core commodities as coal, cement and steel.
Dr Singh also gave the middle and the upper middle class segments a breather by not levying the service tax on air-conditioned rail travel.
Dr Singh putting off the levy is the eighth deferment of service tax levy on rail transportation since 2009. The Government would have mopped up Rs 3,000 crore from the service tax levy on the freight segment and around Rs 300 crore from passenger side.
Ms Mamata Banerjee, Trinamool Congress Chief and a partner of the ruling United Progressive Alliance, has opposed imposition of this tax. A Trinamool representative holds the Rail portfolio.
Fares of the Indian Railways, which moves about 800 crore people a year, have always been a political hot potato.
On the freight side, the Railways has been losing traffic share to road sector because of a supply-side capacity crunch.

Hospital support workers clean and sterilize post-operative surgical rooms. They prepare meals for diabetic patients and people with severe allergies as well as dispose of used needles and toxic waste. Hospital support employees – including cleaners, maintenance, laundry, and food service employees – play an important and all too often invisible role in the provision and quality of hospital-based medical care.
This paper describes the findings of research that examines work conditions of these hospital support jobs and begins to evaluate the impact of the 2003 decision to outsource all hospital support services in Vancouver, Canada. Based on in-depth interviews with 42 employees, the findings suggest that contracting out of these services to major private multinational corporations has had deleterious consequences for the employees and their families as well as the health care system. Outsourcing resulted in an initial steep reduction of wages for hospital support staff – from approximately $18 per hour to between $9-12 per hour – with fewer benefits. Despite recent increases in wages, many workers still report challenges making ends meet. Workers in these jobs also report a lack of proper training, high levels of on-the-job injuries, and high levels of stress
To conclude, I discuss some of the implications of the findings for the sociology of work and health. I also propose some policy solutions for mitigating the negative consequences of reform, and describe the beginning of a living wage movement in Vancouver that has emerged as a result of this decision to outsource these jobs.

Bill Clinton is really a genius: youtube.com/watch?v=N7EyYh…—
Matt Yglesias (@mattyglesias) October 10, 2012
Former President Bill Clinton was in Nevada rallying Democrats for Obama yesterday, and he couldn't help but let the audience know that he knew how to answer Mitt Romney in the recent debate, even if Barack Obama didn't:
You can see Clinton pause for a moment — as if thinking about whether it was really wise to show just how confidently he would have handled Romney. But he didn't pause long before showing the loyalists the Bill Clinton they loved:
I had a different reaction to that first debate than a lot of people did. I mean I thought "Wow. Here's old Moderate Mitt. Where you been boy? I missed y'all these last few years."
And liberals are eating it up! As of this writing, the YouTube clip had received nearly 15,000 views in less than a day. And Clinton got the love that he has always craved:

Dozens and dozens of liberals are cheering Bill Clinton and marveling at his debating skills — but don't take it personally, President Obama. We can't all be Bill Clinton, right?
