The golden landscape, laid back style, and rustic charm of life outside of the city serves as the inspiration for Weddingstar's country wedding favours. With a wide selection to choose from, you're sure to find something perfect. Make your wedding an event to remember with the premium quality and design of our classic and novelty themed country country wedding favours.
Create the perfect place setting using a sunflower tied with natural raffia or cream-coloured daisies in a rustic bouquet. These country country wedding favours look like they were plucked directly from the prairie and paired with a signature place card or gift box, make for perfect country wedding favours. Use them as accents or for personalised details, country wedding favours lend themselves to creative customisation.
Use our country boot shaped glasses for more originality. These country wedding favours work fine as little drinking glasses, but consider their versatility. Fill them with your favourite style coffee bean or candy, use them to pot a small cactus or prairie plant, or even use them as candle holders. While the options may sometimes seem straightforward, keep an open mind when considering all the possibilities that the right country country wedding favours can provide. Our country wedding favours in particular are crafted with an abundance of uses in mind.
Miniature metal pails and watering cans in white or galvanized metal are a clever homage to rural life. Dress these country wedding favours up using personalised ribbon or a place card. You could even use these country wedding favours to display personalised magnets, share candy, or a small bouquet. Playing on a variety of themes and concepts, country country wedding favours are diverse enough to accent a spectrum of styles.
For novelty, consider the impact of country wedding favours like miniature cowboy hats to accent your place cards. They're a great way to add signature country style to your tables. These country country wedding favours can also be detailed for men or women using different colours or styles of ribbon. Not to mention, they're an easy way to put a smile on your guests' faces.

Just hope that McElroy plays well would like to see him come back next and plays for the Starting job for the Jets. Sanchez and Tebow and Tanny all needed to go.
By IRA on Dec 24, 2012 | Reply
Great to see Coples play well they have a keeper in him and Wilkerson is a Pro Bowl type player. Its a must to bring back Edwards especially after he showed the hustle to tackle Lynch after he made that INT. Plus he was a real leader on the sideline especially for McElroy. So i hope all this McElroy is the answer talk will go away. He is a good player and a career backup. Reminds me of Bollinger.
Everybody have a Happy and Healthy Holiday Season!
By Jack on Dec 24, 2012 | Reply
Jets will need to find a QB, whether for the future or just enough to win games to get them to the playoffs. Here 3 top QB,s from next coming drafts ( QB, Collen Klein, AJ, McCarron, Matt Barkley ) Others Tyler Wilson, Tyler Bray, and Logan Thomas. I would either take A.J. McCarron or Collen Klein i'm done with those USC QB's. Its going to be hard to pass up on RB, Marcus Lattimore or Montee Ball or TE, Tyler Eifert, Jets really should take a offensive of player But my other picks DE, Barkevious Mingo, LB, Manti Teo, DE/OLB Corey Lemonier. Later picks OT/G Dallas Thomas OT/RT Ricky Wager. WR, Kenny Stills.

A little early to write off McElroy in 1 game — a game that happened to be the worst Jet OL performance ever, Ira. Also a little early to conclude that Edwards, who looks about half as fast as 2 yrs ago, is worth keeping. More likely BE's the one who's destined to be a backup from now on and Mc needs a little more seasoning, not to mention first-team snaps, before we can make a conclusion on him. But then you're another of those that made ridiculous excuses for "Mark" forever…
By Jet Fan Since '64 Tom Ready for the Makeover on Dec 24, 2012 | Reply
I love that list of QBs except for Klein, Jack. I watched him in a few games and thought oh yeah, this is just what we need, a mediocre-armed guy who makes the same mistakes as Sanchez…

Tyler Bray,give me a break,this guy is a clone of Erik Ainge,same size,same school,I will pass.

In the corporate world, IT managers are able to maintain the well being of a company's network. If the network is running slow, they have the tools to determine what's causing it and can fix it. As more and more devices join our networks at home, homeowners are starting to experience some of the same issues of corporate IT managers. At CES, several companies demonstrated simple tools that homeowners can use to get a better handle on their home networks, diagnose problems, and remedy them.
Netgear's Genie application, for example, gives homeowners a quick view of what's happening on their home networks through a highly intuitive display on a smartphone and/or tablet, for both iOs and Android devices. For example, users can set up network restrictions for guests, can see when a new device joins the network and can set up parental controls. For example, if a user would like the kids to be off the network at a certain time of the day, they can easily set up those parameters via the app.The app also turns a smartphone or tablet into an DLNA controller—from which consumers can find videos, music and photos on their network and push them to TVs. The Genie application requires a Netgear router.
Management of home networks is a hot button at D-Link, as well. The company demonstrated its D-Link Cloud services, which enables consumers of mydlink-enabled routers to remotely control Internet access of all devices on the network. From a mydlink app on a smartphone or tablet, users can view the Web browsing history of devices on the network, receive email alerts if a new device tries to join the network and see if there are any updates available for their home's router.

L'édition 2013 de la Fender Select Stratocaster HSS place la barre encore plus haut que sa grande sœur de 2012, avec plusieurs nouvelles caractéristiques des plus qualitatives. Citons d'abord la touche en palissandre «channel-Bound», l'une des dernières innovations Fender dans laquelle la touche à radius compensé (9,5" à 14") en palissandre est « incrustée » dans l'épais manche en érable en forme de « C ». En plus de définir un nouveau look à l'élégance rare, cette conception procure un confort incroyable au niveau des frettes, les deux arêtes étant délicieusement arrondies pour une parfaite continuité entre le manche et la touche.
La Fender Select Stratocaster HSS dispose également d'une superbe table d'harmonie en érable flammé, aux contours classiques. Le corps dispose d'une élégante finition laquée brillante Tobacco Sunburst teintée main, tandis que le manche a été huilé à la main et présente un confortable talon aux contours ergonomiques. Parmi ses autres caractéristiques haut de gamme figurent des micros simple bobinage Fender Select Stratocaster en positon centrale et en position manche, un puissant micro chevalet humbucker Twin-Head, un sélecteur à 5 positions, une plaque de protection à trois plis coloris parchemin, des potentiomètres de contrôle blancs d'aspect vieilli, 21 frettes medium-jumbo, une barre de réglage Bi-Flex™, un vibrato synchronisé à deux points d'ancrage avec pontets en acier cintré de style vintage, des mécaniques bloquantes étagées sophistiquées et le médaillon Fender Select sur la tête de manche.

Excellent build quality but badly let down by the sound quality. I am going to change the pickups and see if that helps. I own an american standard and a clapton strat and both blow the select away in tone and sound quality. I use a blues junior amp and have played fender guitar guitars and amps professionally for the last 25 years. Would not recommend this guitar to anyone
christy4512 owns this item
Beautiful guitar - everything as advertised. This instrument is capable of a wide variety of tones and can accommodate many different playing styles. What sets this guitar apart from others and makes it unique is the channel bound neck. Incredible smooth to play and an amazing amount of sustain most by far in any strat I've every played. Would rate the set-up out of the box as mediocre at best. Had to tweak nearly everything to get it just right for me. Had to adjust the relief on the neck the action the pickup height some of the tuners were loose not great on the factory setup. I am picky as far as set up but felt that this guitar should have been set up better for $ 2000+. That's my only knock on the value. As a collector of vintage acoustics I own several guitars I would never part with as to me, they are priceless. After only 2 months this strat is now part of my most valuable to me inner circle. Thank you Fender for a great guitar.
cadiilacsteve owns this item
This is a beautiful instrument. I think my friends at Fender could have taken it a step further. Instead of the old Rosewood, how about an Ebony neck, or even Maple or Birdseye Maple at this price. Why the Jumbo Frets? Other than that, I could see this Strat or even the Tele version hanging on my wall.
Truly amazing. A beautiful looking guitar which sounds great. The neck is fantastic despite the chunky feel and the inlaid fretboard is a dream.the pick up tone is to die for. I have one of the first Squiers to be made in Japan - a 1960 candy apple red with a slinky neck and a rosewood board - which I love, but this one steals the show. Keep up the good work Fender.
cjmartin owns this item
I just got this guitar a couple of days ago and WOW is all I can say. The flame maple top and the finish are beautiful. The inlaid rosewood fretboard is something I have never had on a guitar before. As soon as a I gripped the neck on a test drive at the store I liked it. It's a full C 50's neck style and it fits perfectly in my hand. Having the recessed fretboard with the maple neck serving as a sort of binding is a very smooth feel. The rolled edges are actually the maple neck. Not the rosewood fretboard. This gives the neck a unique feel when you grip it. I like the compound radius. I have a 2004 deluxe tele maple neck that also has the 9.5 to 14 compound radius and I think it has been replaced as number 1. This new beauty is making it's debut at rehearsal next week so I really can't fully evaluate the pickups until I crank it up with the band. Sometimes you acquire guitars to go in your collection or to play a specific style or what have you. Then there are guitars you come across and they instantly become the new number 1 absolute go to guitar replacing the previous titleholder. This my friend is one of those guitars.

I have always loved single coil guitars. I recently bought a LP Standard and found that the playability for me just didn't work like Fenders.
I loved the bridge humbucker, but not the neck, and i needed my cluck and chime there.
When i took it back to Guitar Center this beauty caught my eye. I love the tone woods and finish. The neck is amazing, and so playable. And with the HSS config, buddy this thing will get dirty too! As a church musician moving across many genres of music in any given set, this guitar can cover them all. I definately wont be taking this one back!
Joe$oup owns this item
I initially saw this guitar on the Fender website and was intrigued by the new Fender Rosewood embedded fingerboard in a maple neck. I finally got a call from my local Guitar Center and got the opportunity to be the first to have one from this store. I immediately went down and had to try it out. I was amazed by the unique neck and fingerboard and how easy it was to play. The action was amazing and the sound was super sweet. The humbucker pickup had a smooth crunch that helped me immediately make the decision to buy it. The finish was beautiful, the neck amazing, the sound the best yet from any Fender I have played. Everyone around me wanted to try the guitar but I immediately swooped it up and didn't want anyone else to get it. This guitar is the most exciting one I have ever owned and I can't wait to get on stage with my Rock Immortal friends to make it scream!

I played a Strat back in the 60s and had fun in a small 3 man band playing classic rock-n-roll. When I went into the service and got out of music for a while, my heart was just not in it anymore. When I came back to music later, it was with an acoustical guitar. Lately I have had the bug to play an electric guitar again. So I took the plunge with this beautiful lady! I am in awe of this Lady....she has all the inner & out beauty, sleek grace and mellow tone as well as a raunchy guttural snarl of a fine tuned Formula-1 at the Indy 500! The wood front & back is flawless with a sleek luster finish. The maple birdseye neck with rosewood fret board is a beauty. The neck fills your hand and is smooth with the strings that melt like butter to the touch. I may have to go to heavier gauge strings until I soften my acoustical neck (death) grip. The ability to play all high, mid-range and low ranges of music voices with such quality, clarity as well as hold a note and switching from single coils to humbucker drives my crazy! When I transport this vibe through my new Limited Super Sonic 22, I am in heaven. When I shoot them through my Mustang II with all the warped preset modes, I can't help but think of my first '65 Corvette Stingray Roadster! You couldn't wipe the smile off my face with a baseball bat! I feel like a kid again! Thank you FENDER! I salute all your artists & craftsmen!
Mike owns this item
I got this guitar in November 2012. Wow what a guitar! I received a certificate with the guitar indicating it was one of the first 100 made. The humbuckers sound so good! These, with the two single-coil pickups provide such an awesome array of tones which enables me to be very creative! The fit and finish of this Strat is second to none. The combination of the neck being so smooth and the rosewood fretboard allow my fingers to glide
up and down the neck. This guitar is truly a dream to play! You ask, would I purchase this guitar again ? YES! I would highly recommend this guitar to anyone looking for an excellent playing, excellent built, and excellent sounding electric guitar!

This is what Francine Orr revealed early on in her IRIS Nights talk: "photojournalism is my passion." The LA Times photographer showed just how much she cares about the people she photographs by giving an awfully touching and moving lecture.
The first series of photographs in Francine's presentation focused on her documentation of people in Africa who live on just pennies a day. She told the audience that she had a hard time talking to people suffering from poverty but spoke to them anyway due to a strong urge to tell their stories.
Francine spent a bit of time talking about one photo in particular, that of a wide-eyed African woman named Margaret who was dying of HIV.
She described the moment she convinced Margaret's children to allow her to photograph their mother. She told them that the haunting image would tell the world her story and in turn this would help others.
Francine uttered several fervent soundbites during the lecture. One of our favorites was "Poverty sucks!"
Orr has spent a large amount of her career ensconced in dangerous places all over the world. She recounted one story about a time when she was in Africa and suspected her "fixer," the man she hired to protect/translate for her, planned to rob her of her expensive camera equipment.
She remembered how she'd been told by others in her field to go with her instincts. One morning, she wisely ditched him and went out on her own for the rest of her trip.
Francine also went into detail about how she befriended several homeless people she documented who live under the 7th Street Bridge in LA.
During the presentation of her final slideshow, Francine held a brave 7-month old baby boy who is the subject of a story to be published in an upcoming edition of the LA Times - a truly touching moment. That night he became the youngest person to go up on our IRIS Nights stage!
When asked by an audience member if she records interviews with her subjects before she starts photographing them, or shoots them first and then interviews them, Orr responded that's it's neither. For her, the listening comes first. When dealing with a story, she says, "the number one thing I try to do is listen." Quite a statement for a photographer.
Her two years working for the Peace Corps, on the island of Yap in Micronesia, was where she said she really learned to listen. She taught in a school there with no electricity, no outside communication except for visiting documentary film crews and anthropologists. Gathering around oil lanterns at night the Yapese people would share stories with her and each other
...with not a single distraction. One of her former students from Yap - now living in the US - recently found her on Facebook and came to the lecture with a sister in tow!
Thanks, Francine, for sharing such moving and inspiring stories. We hope to hear more of them in the future!
For more information about Francine visit her upcoming official Website.
We at the Space are very excited to bring you videos of IRIS Nights lectures in a more timely manner. Click here to watch Francine's lecture online!

The latest buzzword in audio has been AirPlay. Having Apple's AirPlay technology built into a device means that you, the listener, can stream all sorts of goodies wirelessly to that device, from iTunes, as well as an iPod touch, iPhone or iPad.
There are certainly a lot of AirPlay-enhanced products popping up. CasaTunes is adding the capability into its latest software upgrade, CasaTunes version 4 with CasaTunes Air. The hook on this, however, is not just that it adds AirPlay features into the CasaTunes line. It also allows users to play multiple AirPlay streams simultaneously to various rooms in the house.
Combining wired and wireless solutions into one audio experience, CasaTunes Air can send music to Airplay speakers and receive music from Airplay-enabled devices. The possibilities for music apps and services are endless.
Once the software is installed on the CasaTunes system, CasaTunes Air will automatically find all of the AirPlay-enabled devices on the network. That may include receivers, speakers, the Apple TV, and more. You're going to need an installer to complete the web-based CasaTunes Setup utility, which allows you to assign devices to different rooms in the house.
From there, CasaTunes Air users can stream music from one or more iPod touch, iPhone and/or iPad devices, all at the same time to any wired or wireless device, as well as a combination of components. Besides iTunes and stored music, users can also stream music services, such as iHeart Radio, MOG, Pandora, Rdio, Rhapsody and Spotify. (Subscriptions and/or fees may apply.)
"CasaTunes Air is ideal for retrofit installations and to extend existing systems where customers have maxed out their wired solution but are still looking to add music in more rooms," said David Krinker, CEO of CasaTunes. "Wireless solutions are also preferred in smaller installations where customers can grow their systems over time. CasaTunes Air combines the best of wired and wireless systems."
CasaTunes version 4 with CasaTunes Air is expected to ship later this month. After the release, it will be included in the entire line of CasaTunes music servers and include support for third-party systems.

BALTIMORE (AP) -- The 5-year-old elephant named Samson at the Maryland Zoo continues to recover from a potentially deadly herpes virus.
Curator Mike McClure says Samson's activity level has returned to normal most days. Veterinarians are optimist he will recover. He was seen Wednesday playing with mulch after getting a bath.
Animal keepers have reduced Samson's medications in recent weeks from three doses a day to two. Eventually, he will receive medication once a day.
The zoo says they hope to have Samson in the main elephant yard when the weather warms up to give visitors a chance to see him playing with new toys.
Officials began noticing in February that Samson might be sick. Herpes is often lethal in elephants.
Samson is the only elephant born at the zoo in 137 years.

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- No Johnny Football, no problem.
Sophomore Kenny Hill showed solid command of the Texas A&M juggernaut offensive attack and then some. Hill threw for a school-record 511 yards and directed the offense efficiently in the No. 21 Aggies 52-28 dismantling of No. 9 South Carolina Thursday night at Williams-Brice Stadium in the 2014 college football opener.
Hill was making his first career start and didn't seem to be fazed by the Gamecocks 18-game home winning streak or the 82,847 fans in attendance. His final passing numbers were greater than what former Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel could accomplish in his two years as a starter. The Aggies amassed 680 yards of total offense, which ranks 11th most all-time in school history. The 511 yards were the most ever against the Gamecocks.
The Aggies scored on five of their first six possessions and never flinched. The four scoring drives covered 67, 75, 85 and 75, 80 yards and none lasted more than 4:40 to give Texas A&M a 31-14 halftime lead.
Hill finished 44-of-60 with three touchdowns. Tra Carson added three touchdown runs.
South Carolina senior quarterback Dylan Thompson threw four touchdown passes but never seemed to find his rhythm offensively.
No. 18 Mississippi 35, Boise State 13
Atlanta -- Quarterback Bo Wallace threw four touchdown passes, three coming in the fourth quarter, and the Rebels' defense forced four turnovers in a sloppy victory over the Broncos at the Georgia Dome.
Wallace connected with Laquon Treadwell on a 14-yard touchdown pass early in the fourth quarter and then put the game away with a 31-yard touchdown to Quincy Adeboyejo to put the Rebels up 15 with 10 minutes to play.
That was plenty for the Ole Miss defense, which picked off Boise State quarterback Grant Hedrick four times and kept the Broncos out of the end zone until late in the fourth quarter.

An annual event at the United Center, 'The Greatest Show on Earth' will return yet again for what is perhaps the most notable circus still around. It came to be in its current format when a circus started by the James Anthony Bailey and P.T. Barnum merged with the Ringling Brothers Circus in 1919. In 1957 they changed formats from the old school portable-tent style of circus to sports venues which already had seating in place. They maintain two circus trains which move separately for different shows, towed around the country bringing circus animals and such across the country. The Chicago shows will be on the Built to Amaze! tour, a Red tour. There will be nine shows at Allstate Arena between November 1st and 11th and ten shows at the United Center between November 20th and December 1st. Gold Coast Tickets has the best selection!

John Cena wins Royal Rumble 2013 by last eliminating Ryback. Other contestants in the match include Antonio Cesaro, Bo Dallas, Brodus Clay, Chris Jericho, Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Daniel Bryan, Darren Young, David Otunga, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Godfather, Goldust, Great Khali, Heath Slater, Jinder Mahal, Kane, Kofi Kingston, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Ryback, Santino Marella, Sheamus, Sin Cara, Tensai, The Miz, Titus ONeil, Wade Barrett and Zack Ryder.

"Daniel Bryan wasn't going to win Royal Rumble 2013. He gets tossed out. His fan base would be more upset than him not being in it at all. Just my opinion."
- Kevin Nash defending WWE and their decision
January 30, 2014
It looks like TNA is investing heavily into Bram, a new character who recently made his debut as a childhood friend of former world heavyweight champion Brutus Magnus. Even though he has yet to make a name for himself in the industry, Bram has been given a multiple year contract by TNA. While it may not be for a large sum of money, the commitment is quite telling.

A lot of action took place in the main event of Money in the Bank 2014. Fans went crazy as they saw creative signature spots from Randy Orton, Sheamus, John Cena, Roman Reigns, Alberto Del Rio, Kane and Bray Wyatt. However, it was Cena, much to the dismay of online WWE fans, who climbed the ladder and captured the heavyweight championship.
June 29, 2014
To calm down the Money in the Bank 2014 audience, WWE opted to go with another divas match as a filler. Layla El and Summer Rae battled in a match, where Fandango served as the special guest referee. Fans were so disinterested in the segment that a CM Punk chant broke out. In the end, Layla caught Summer with a kick to gain the pinfall. Layla and Fandango kissed after the match, while a despondent Summer looked on.
June 29, 2014
In a rematch at Money in the Bank 2014, Alexander Rusev was successfully able to conquer Big E Langston again with his submission move. It was the typical match that you would expect from the two. There was a botched spot where Langston speared Rusev to the outside of the ring. However, the two of them more than made up for that by doing a great closing sequence.
June 29, 2014
In a match that was slightly held in higher regards than a filler match, Goldust and Cody Rhodes, who worked under his Stardust gimmick again, defeated Curtis Axel, who was sporting a ridiculous looking singlet, and Ryback. The match was designed to highlight the Stardust character. Since there was a little bit of action after the match, there is a chance that WWE could be continuing this feud.
June 29, 2014
In a very exciting match, Seth Rollins outlasted Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, Rob Van Dam and Jack Swagger to capture the briefcase at Money in the Bank 2014. WWE wants to continue the war between Ambrose and the Authority, so they had Kane coming out and providing assistance to Rollins. Despite the heel tactic to win the match, the Rollins victory was actually cheered by a good amount of fans.
June 29, 2014
Since WWE needed a filler segment at Money in the Bank 2014 and wanted to showcase Adam Rose a little bit, he was given a quick match against Damien Sandow, who was dressed as Paul Revere. Match was not really all that noteworthy, and Rose got the win after hitting the Party Foul finishing move. This was a segment that belongs more on Monday Night Raw than a pay per view.
June 29, 2014
Naomi Knight was given a crack at the WWE Divas Championship at Money in the Bank 2014, but it was Paige that walked away as the reigning titleholder after a DDT and a pin. The match was designed to further the eventual split between Naomi and Cameron, who was at ringside and taking glee whenever her tag team partner was in peril against Paige.
June 29, 2014
Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso had their biggest challenge to date when Erick Rowan and Luke Harper challenged them for the WWE tag team championship at Money in the Bank 2014. The twin brothers delivered by retaining the belt. The Usos performed a double superplex on Rowan before finishing him off with consecutive flying splashes from the top rope.
June 29, 2014
In a rather surprising move, WWE had the Shield win convincingly against Evolution. Batista and Randy Orton were the first two performers to be eliminated from the main event match at Payback 2014, but both provided interference for Triple H after their eliminations. After taking a brutal beating, Roman Reigns picked up the win for his team. Many expected Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins to be eliminated during the match, but WWE opted to give them a dominant ending.
June 2, 2014
In a match designed to be the buffer between the two main event features at Payback 2014, Paige successfully defended the WWE Divas Championship against Alicia Fox via submission. Afterwards, Alicia continued her story line of going crazy whenever things do not go well for her. The audience reacted more to the post match antics than the actual match.
June 2, 2014
In a segment filled with plenty of interference from Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Rowan and Erick Harper, John Cena was able to defeat Bray Wyatt in a Last Man Standing match at Payback 2014 after Cena put Wyatt through a big black box and covered him with an even heavier box. Rumors have it that WWE will be continuing this feud and something could trigger that on Monday Night Raw this week.
June 2, 2014
At Payback 2014, Wade Barrett successfully defended the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Rob Van Dam after picking up the pin fall victory, thanks to the Bull Hammer. The performers placed some doubt in that finish when it appeared that Barrett had injured his arm while smashing into the corner post after RVD ducked away from the move outside the ring.
June 1, 2014
In a glorified squash match at Payback 2014, Alexander Rusev defeated Big E Langston via submission to continue his push up the ladder in WWE. He was able to slap on the camel clutch after delivering a big kick to Langston. Afterwards, he held the submission move on for a short period of time before Lana instructs him to let go. Rusev should be placed into a new feud this week.
June 1, 2014
In a match designed by WWE to accelerate the split between the brothers, Curtis Axel and Ryback defeated Cody Rhodes and Goldust in the second match of Payback 2014. Ryback picked up the pin fall victory for his team after delivering the Shell Shock to Rhodes. Afterwards, Rhodes told Goldust that he needs to find a better tag team partner for himself.
June 1, 2014
Despite being in the airplane spin for quite a few rotations, Sheamus was able to capture the victory over Antonio Cesaro, who had Paul Heyman with him at ringside, at Payback 2014 by surprising his opponent with a small package. With the win, Sheamus retains the United States Heavyweight Championship and will more than likely be placed in another feud by WWE tomorrow.
June 1, 2014
In a match filled with quite a few over the top spots, Daniel Bryan successfully retained the WWE Championship by defeating Kane at Extreme Rules 2014. A running knee followed by a pin enabled Bryan to get the pin fall victory over Kane. Prior to that spot, Kane was put through a burning table and carried on a forklift, among other things.
May 4, 2014
Since WWE needed a Divas Championship match at Extreme Rules 2014, Paige was given the victory over Tamina Snuka after delivering her submission finisher. The segment was short and quick, providing only a couple of spots outside the ring. It basically served as a pay per view buffer between the steel cage match and the world title match.
May 4, 2014
After suffering a loss at the last pay per view, Bray Wyatt needed a victory over John Cena at Extreme Rules 2014, and he got just that. Wyatt received a heavy dose of interference from Luke Harper and Erick Rowan, but Cena still managed to overcome those odds. As Cena was walking out of the cage, a kid showed up and began singing, which provided enough distraction for Wyatt to hit his Sister Abigail finisher and walk out for the victory.
May 4, 2014
In the most anticipated match at Extreme Rules 2014, the Shield defeated Evolution. Roman Reigns picked up the pin fall victory over Batista after a Superman punch and a spear. Triple H, Randy Orton, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose fought through the audience before Rollins took out all four of them by hurling himself from the elevated stands.
May 4, 2014
The first title change at Extreme Rules 2014 took place when Wade Barrett defeated Big E Langston to capture the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Barrett picked up the pin fall victory after delivering a running Bull Hammer finisher on Langston. A highlight of the pay per view was Langston spearing Barrett from the ring to the floor.

I don't think either of the racials are particularly noticeable at level 90 raiding. Yes there's technically a "most optimal" racial, but they all have their place. For example, while taurens do have more hit points (but keep in mind it's base hit points, so it doesn't make stam worth more or anything) level 90 raiders/tanks have so many hit points that it's not noticeable. Yes the Orc Racial is more AP on a cooldown and it's technically an improvement, but it's not THAT much more damage.
I'm undead with my warrior for a couple of reasons: 1) back in TBC when I was leveling, cannibalize was the only way I COULD have leveled a warrior, lol. Way too much downtime/bandage usage without it, and it's surprisingly nice while doing dailies. 2) I originally rolled my warrior to PvP, and well... Will of the Forsaken is THE PvP talent, imo. 3) They look badass. I'm kinda fat in real life, I don't need to be a fat cow thing in my fantasy world!
As far as touch of the grave is concerned: it's nice, but it's not huge. Here's a WoL report: http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-gtafxoucxugzka2b/details/20/?s=16&e=358
On Tortos I do a lot of AOE, so it's a lot less of a % of my damage, but it's still a 0.4% damage increase (which frankly is probably about what bloodfury is I would imagine, but I don't have any data to back that up right now). On Magthera in that same long, obviously a single target fight, TotG was 0.7% of my damage. So... there is an actual "hey look I did more damage" aspect, and it is kind of nice to get a small little heal while tanking or doing dailies, but it's really only noticable while doing dailies. It's too small of a heal to have a significant impact while tanking.
In the end I think it's which race you think looks the coolest or that you'd have the most fun with the racial abilities. I like undead a lot, all of my characters are undead except a priest I have that's a belf.
So... quantifiably it is technically noticeable... but it's not much, just like the rest of the racials, lol.

Dear members,
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
*****....well i do wonder what naruto is gonna do all of a sudden naruto is saying no to Sakura??? (still a Hinata fan to the end!!!) next chapter is gonna be interesting!!!!!!!!!!
Originally Posted by Sasuke Uzumaki

Instead of saying "I love you" she is telling him "I like cool guys: when Sasuke was considered cool I loved him and now that everyone loves you I've turned to you". That is the reason why Naruto is mad at her.
She feels guilty, right now she seems to plan to live with Naruto from gratitude, I cannot yet call it love.
But I'm not saying she's bad, just mistaken.
I thought that Naruto and Sakura did go on some dates before... when they were younger i mean. Sakura of course made it into a friend kinda date but Naruto was still happy.
HAHA told you so sakura would confess, even though it wasnt sincere
I still thought the chapter was crappy and im not stupid for saying that either, I thought it was crappy that Kishi used pretty much the who chapter to show Sakura saying a bunch of crap to Naruto, pretty much u can tell nobody believed her. All they showed was Sakura feeding Naruto some bullshit, showed the begining of the fight between Kisame and Killer Bee and by the looks of it, it seems they wont detail the fight as good as they should or the fight by not go all the way because someone will intervine. They also showed who will lead the Alliance. But wasting like 10 pages on Sakura talking bullshit was crappy. I could had elaborated if I wanted to on my previous statement but I chosed not to because I would think people would think about the same thing I did. Im sure nobody not even Kishi believed what Sakura was telling Naruto, it seems like Kishi slacked off on the chapter even though he had a week off. He could of changed it up a bit or made it a bit more interesting.
yea you guys yamato looked at her funny because he was sensing the trickery sakura was trying to use on naruto, and kiba just probably wanted to say something
but i love how Naruto realized it, because old naruto would have fell for it bcuz he used to be dumb like that
so maybe we are seeing mature naruto? go sage powers!
and the anime with jiraiya, was GREAT
made my eyes get a little watery
Two weeks and the same ol' 17 pages...
My conclusion: sakura just likes populair guys
Sooo , nuthin happened
..... , there will be a lot spoiler in the near future
Someone told me on msn Tsunade wakes up from coma next chapter! yay! i hope its true
lol narutos maturity now is cool
personaly i hate sakura
and its obvious she doesnt love naruto,in the scene you see of her making everyone promise not to tell naruto you can see hinata, probs just sayin promise you wont tell naruto im lying to get what i want :P
can some one please give me there views on what they thought about why donzo wanted his eye removing if he died? was it to destroy the secrets of the sharingan to stop other villages getting it?
Oh yeh one more thing
All those who think danzo is going to join up with madara are a bit foolish, why would he join up with madara when madara is helping sasuke to kill him? lol
Its not gonna happen :P
I belive like people here have said does have feelings for but deep down she loves . the only reason u said this is because she doesn't want to cause anymore pain lets not forget what she said to that the fool loves me i will talk to him.

Well i belevie he knows the strength Madara and he is perparing his self because how strong will he be if he has the sharingan and the byukgan.
confession of a lonely girl: sakura
surprising chapter: i hope sakura was not manipulated by tobi or danzo.
rock lee: is he crying on the background? poor rock lee.
everybody was surprised
off topic: narutobase version is a bit different with onemanga version?
i thought that is was absolutely hilarious how naruto shut sakura down. it was crazy!!!! i am a Naruto-Hinata fan but i didn't even believe what she was sayin and i could tell, like almost everyone else, that she wasn't being completely honest with naruto or herself. i think that im ready to c naruto fight again. atleast let him train or something. i wanna see him get even stronger. it also felt like sakura was settling for naruto cuz she kept say stuff like sasuke is always gone and u r always here for me. im sure that pissed naruto off too!!! o and i hope shoton is right about tsunade so we can get rid of this who's gonna b hokage crap!!!
Hav'nt got time to read all theories so i'm gonna pu a simple one out there... more of my expectations for the next chapter...
It's gonna continue with naruto and sakura's convo... then cut to Kisame with the dog in ribbons on the ground... maybe we see the first attack from either kisame or bee...
but honestly is Sakura lying?
on naruto base page 3 it says
"so he'll be asking for my body soon"
this isnt on the one on one manga, waht do you think he meant by this?
I haven't posted in a long time.
well this was funny to me cause all throughout sakuras "addmition" to loving naruto if you want lee and kiba and co. they all have angry and crazy looks on their faces. I LOVED at the very end when Naruto goes up to sakuras faces and says that he HATES people that lie to themselves. You could tell naruto knew all along. On the last pg you can see sakuras expression. She looks shocked and could tell naruto didn't fall for any of it. Sakura just looked like an idiot. Her intentions where right but not all true. She doesn't have true love for naruto. We can all see that. Next chpt. will be quite interesting for sure. I wonder what sakuras reply will be?
I want to see how the rest of the saku-naru conversation goes. Sakura will probably be surprised that naruto didn't fall for it.(honestly, she needs to get real. there was no way he was going to fall for it. Not to mention, the expression on her face was totally insicere.) This is going to end up being 'pretty damn awkward' as Kiba put it.
maybe naruto can feel someones feeling if he is in sage mode? he was in sage mode when they arrived.
ok so the manga thats being posted on this site is all wrong, and it has a lot of people all f u c k ed up!!! i suggest that you go to onemanga.com where the translations are accurate.

sorry if ive missread/missunderstood
oh thats INO's technique but much more advanced
lol you gotta be joking, it was the most insincere confession in a lifetime, going on about someone she claims to have given up on, trying to explain herself only with words and a stone-cold look, you don't need to be a genius nor have a 6th sense sage-mode ability to see through that

30:1 Metal Gearmotor 37Dx52L mm with 64 CPR Encoder
This 2.54" × 1.45" × 1.45" gearmotor is a powerful 12V brushed DC motor with a 30:1 metal gearbox and an integrated quadrature encoder that provides a resolution of 64 counts per revolution of the motor shaft, which corresponds to 1920 counts per revolution of the gearbox's output shaft. These units have a 0.61"-long, 6 mm-diameter D-shaped output shaft. This gearmotor is also available without an encoder.
Compare all products in 37D mm Gearmotors.
This powerful brushed DC gearmotor is available in six different gear ratios and features an integrated quadrature encoder with 64 counts per revolution (CPR) of the motor shaft. The motor and encoder portion is available by itself (no gearbox), and versions without the encoder are also available.
These motors are intended for use at 12 V, though the motor can begin rotating at voltages as low as 1 V.
Details for item #1443
Exact gear ratio: ``(25×30×40) / (10×10×10) = bb(30:1)``
April 2014 update: We have changed the gear ratio in this product's name from "29:1" to "30:1" so the name more accurately reflects the product. The product itself has not changed.
Gearmotor Dimensions
The face plate has six mounting holes evenly spaced around the outer edge threaded for M3 screws. These mounting holes form a regular hexagon and the centers of neighboring holes are 15.5 mm apart. You can use our custom 37D mm metal gearmotor bracket (shown in the left picture below) to mount the gearmotor to your project via these mounting holes and the screws that come with the bracket.
Please note that unlike our smaller metal gearmotors, these 37D mm gearmotors have output shafts with a diameter of 6 mm. The Pololu universal aluminum mounting hub for 6mm shafts can be used to mount our larger Pololu wheels (80mm- and 90mm-diameter) or custom wheels and mechanisms to the gearmotor's output shaft (see the right picture above).

Warning: Do not screw too far into the mounting holes as the screws can hit the gears. We recommend screwing no further than 3mm (1/8") into the screw hole.
Using the Encoder
A two-channel Hall effect encoder is used to sense the rotation of a magnetic disk on a rear protrusion of the motor shaft. The quadrature encoder provides a resolution of 64 counts per revolution of the motor shaft when counting both edges of both channels. To compute the counts per revolution of the gearbox output, multiply the gear ratio by 64. The motor/encoder has six color-coded, 11" (28 cm) leads terminated by a 1×6 female header with a 0.1″ pitch, as shown in the main product picture. This header works with standard 0.1″ male headers and our male jumper and precrimped wires. If this header is not convenient for your application, you can pull the crimped wires out of the header or cut the header off. The following table describes the wire functions:
The Hall sensor requires an input voltage, Vcc, between 3.5 and 20 V and draws a maximum of 10 mA. The A and B outputs are square waves from 0 V to Vcc approximately 90° out of phase. The frequency of the transitions tells you the speed of the motor, and the order of the transitions tells you the direction. The following oscilloscope capture shows the A and B (yellow and white) encoder outputs using a motor voltage of 12 V and a Hall sensor Vcc of 5 V:
By counting both the rising and falling edges of both the A and B outputs, it is possible to get 64 counts per revolution of the motor shaft. Using just a single edge of one channel results in 16 counts per revolution of the motor shaft, so the frequency of the A output in the above oscilloscope capture is 16 times the motor rotation frequency.

Major Survival Talents/Themes
*Vendetta has been omitted from this consideration as it can only proc when the target dies, and will only do so if the tank gets the killing blow, which becomes extremely rare in the raid environment, and the healing could only actually help in the case of trash, otherwise it is after the fight itself.
- The Holy Trinity (HT) of DK Tanking, 5/5/5: Blade Barrier, Toughness, and Anticipation are the three fundamental tools of any tank. There is no good reason to forfeit any of these as they help set the passive baseline of your survival. Generally, if you want to shift points to pick up X talent, look to these last.
- Imp Icy Touch: Unless you have a designated person in your raid, such as a DPS DK/Cat, or another tank who will be applying the full de-haste debuff to the boss, this is a survival value to match the HT in point for point value. Beyond just the shear decrease in swings taken, it also spaces them out more allowing your healers more space to heal you between swings. It's not worth leaving off unless the debuff is covered elsewhere.
- Veteran of the 3rd War: This is Blood's tree-specific passive survival buff. It increases your stamina by 3%, which is its primary survival value. The 6% increase to strength, and the 6 expertise also each have a small contribution to passive survival as well.
- Vampiric Blood: This is Blood's tree-specific primary tanking cooldown. It provides a bump to your total health and a large buff to all incoming heals. For Blood's mechanics this is a double whammy on your own survival mechanics, more on this below.
- Rune Tap: This ability provides an instant burst of health. This scales from 10% on a 1 min CD (1 pt invested) to 20% on a 30 sec CD (4 pts invested). This repeatable health restoration plays into a major survival theme for Blood. Note: this ability is off the GCD.
- Mark of Blood: This spell places a debuff on the target with 20 charges. Every target that gets hit by the debuffed mob directly (passive auras or aoe effects do not trigger it) will heal the target for 4% of their total health immediately following the damage being dealt. This will continue for 20 sec or until all 20 charges have been expended, 1 charge per heal. This ability has a 3 min CD.
- Imp Blood Presence: This causes the tank/target to heal for 4% of their max health the moment the damage is caused. This creates a passive stream of incoming healing.
- Bloodworms: Melee hits have a 3/6/9% chance to spawn 2-4 worms that live for 20 sec healing the tank while doing some small damage. These are coded as 'guardians' not pets, so they do not pay attention to relative positioning to their target. As a tank that means they will just pop out next to you and attack the target.
- Imp Death Strike: Principally this ability increases the damage and crit chance of DS to make it more competitive with Obliterate for the rune cost. However, the 50% increase in the healing value of DS makes this talent a passive increase to a major survival tool of the DK.
- Will of the Necropolis: Any damage that reduces the tank below 35% health will be reduced by 5/10/15%. This has an internal CD of 15 sec between procs, but can only proc on damage greater than 5% of the tank's total health.
- Spell Deflection: This gives the tank a chance equal to her parry chance to reduce incoming direct spell damage (as opposed to periodic damage/DoTs) by 15/30/45%.
**% Strength bonuses from Abomination's Might and Ravenous Dead will provide a very small buff to parry rating, but this value is small enough that it is not focusing on as a tangible increase in survival value.
Survival Glyphs:
There is little in the way of survival glyphs for Blood, or for DK tanks, but the Vamp Blood glyph is a very valuable increase in duration amounting to a 50% increase in uptime. AMS remains very unpopular, and with the cap on total absorption it has become even harder to get real value out of. Glyph of Rune Tap is a complicated value to appreciate. On one side it increases the self-heal every so slightly, but it also provides big healing to the party (not raid). If you are with the tanks this can be a major assist value, but it adds a complication to the effective use of the skill. The tank can/must now pay attention to other health's as well to get optimal use of the ability. So on one side, it can expand the value of Rune Tap, and make it more raid friendly, but at the same time that value can be hard to use effectively, and may even run the risk of detracting from your performance.
- Vamp Blood: Increases duration of Vamp Blood by 10 sec, or a 50% increase in uptime if used on CD.
- Rune Tap: Increases the healing done to the tank by 10% (so fully talented the heal is 22% of total health), and using Rune Tap heals everyone in the DK's party (not raid) for 10% of their total health.
- Anti-magic Shell: Increases duration of AMS by 2 sec.
Blood has a LOT of survival tools. That said there are two major distinguishable veins in which they operate: the classic mitigation or damage reduction talents, and the self-healing abilities. The passive mitigation values are fairly simple to illustrate and minimal for interaction with active abilities, so I will start with them.
Spell Deflection
This is the tree's magic mitigation mechanic. Warriors, Paladins, and Bears, as well as Unholy DKs all receive a 6% passive magic damage reduction buff, but Blood gets Spell Deflection. The distinction works out to be rather minor, but it can be a big deal in some situations. The typical Blood DK's parry will run between 16% and 25% depending on how they set up their gear. Average value will be around 20% in raid buffs. With 3 points invested, this talent will reduce the incoming spell damage of a non-DoT/non-periodic effect by 45%. 20% chance for a 45% reduction averages out to 9% average reduction, but in apparent application it will be much more pronounced. When it actually procs you will see a significantly reduced amount of damage. This makes the ability slightly more like block or avoidance for less consistent but more pronounced value. This ability only interacts with your parry value.
Will of the Necropolis
This is the first Ardent Defender (Paladin-Prot) clone ability that actually foreshadowed the redesign of AD itself. The way it works is simple; any damage that reduces the tank's health below 35% is reduced by a percentage. This isn't entirely clear so I'll use an illustration. If our tank has 45k health fully buffed, then the range of interest is when the tank has less than 15,750 health. If the tank has 25k health left, and takes a hit for 20k, without the talent the tank would be at 5k health remaining. With the talent however, the damage portion that brings the tank below 15,750 will be reduced by 15% (for a 3 pt investment). That means the first 9250 dmg will be applied, then the remaining 10,750 dmg will be reduced by 15%. Now it will only do 9138 dmg, so all combined the hit was reduced by 1613 dmg. Alternately, if the tank is at full health and takes a 40k hit (normally leaving him at 5k health), the first 29,250 dmg will be dealt as normal, and the last 10,750 will be reduced by 15%, or again, by 1613 damage and the total hit will only be 38.4k leaving the tank at 6613 health. Ideally, this should not be a constant survival value as the tank should not be hovering continually above and below 35% health, but when it procs, it could become a lifesaver. This has a high degree of positive interaction with high total health, as the higher the tank's total health the higher the range becomes in which the ability can be activated and therefore the larger the potential reduction can be. **This section is currently under investigation. The ability may work to reduce the full hit by 15%, but it has been challenging to get solid data to support that. Hopefully Blizz will start labeling absorbs with more description in the future.**
The other side of Blood tanking that has served to make it extremely popular in progression raiding, is the very interactive value of the tree's self-healing as a survival mechanic. I'll describe the breakdowns of each of the self-healing tools below.
Vamp Blood
The buff from this ability is very notable to high health tanks as it extends their total health by a health stretch (15% of 40k+ health is a pretty big chunk). The increase in all incoming heals, from both the DK and the healers in the raid, make this appear to be an effective increase in mitigation as the same heals go farther. In reality though, this is not a traditional survival CD like the other trees as it does nothing to reduce the incoming damage. This adds a flavor to the ability that is hard to really quantify. For the DK's own self-healing, this two-fold buff actually has a double and multiplicative buff. This should become clearer in each of the abilities below.
Rune Tap
The often unsung hero of the Blood tree, this ability functions as a massive health prop. If it is used on CD, full talented, this ability would restore 20% of total health every 30 sec, or 0.67% per second, reduced, of course, by the need for healing. The major value of this ability is that it is off the GCD, so it can be used as needed when needed, so long as the DK has a Blood/Death rune available (DRM and Blood Tap make this substantially easier to use). The major detractor of this ability is that the deciding factor of how valuable it is is based solely on the ability of the tank to use it well, time it well, and use it often. Because it only works when activated, it can sit on your bars and provide no value. Similarly, if you are slow or do not recognize when it can be used most effectively, you can see very few uses or high overhealing resulting in a diminished value. This ability does very well with heavy health stacking as it is a percent of total health. Also, this ability gets a double whammy from Vamp Blood. First, the increase in total health also increases the value of the heal by 15%, then the +35% healing buff increases the heal further. As a quick illustration, if the tank has 45k health raid buffed their normal Rune Tap will hit for 9k. If the tank then uses Vamp Blood the Rune Tap will now jump up from the new total health of 51.75k (Rune Tap to 10,350), and then get multiplied by the healing buff to 13,973, or a little more than 55% increase. For a sense of scale, outside of Vamp Blood, if the tank has 45k health, and finds the timing to use the spell about once per minute, with only 10% overhealing, this will account for about 135 heals per sec. Alternately, if the same tank were to use it on CD, but average 40% overhealing, that would be about 180 hps. Used to its fullest on CD, the maximum benefit for the 45k health tank would be about 300 hps.
Mark of Blood
This is a move equally, if not more challenging to use than Rune Tap. While a straight self-heal is fairly easy to understand, Mark of Blood is rather less direct. Working in its favor, the heal it procs will trigger immediately after damage is dealt by the target. This makes it never overheal. Also, because it is a debuff to a target, it allows a dps DK or OT DK to buff another tank's performance by giving them an extra heal. In some situations it can also be used to soften a blow to the raid. A 3 min CD means this ability cannot be used constantly, and it is tempting to leave it in case of emergencies, which is equally confusing because the healing value does not feel huge at only 4% of total health. Finding a happy middle ground is vital to optimal use of this spell. Again, because it is based on total health, when used particularly to help the DK tank, stacking health benefits the ability, and the two bonuses of Vamp Blood will doubly buff the heals.
Improved Blood Presence
Imp Blood Pres is generally a harder value to sell as a tank. Essentially, given a hard hit of 5k, the proc from this will heal the tank for only 200 health. It has no synchronization with damage dealt and so can and will overheal if the tank is full on health. The value of this talent is as a steady baseline buff to effective health. A tank doing 2500 dps will see about 100 hps as a steady in-flow from this ability so the tiny trickle will bump the tank's health. The better your damage the better the heal, so this is one of few healing tools that scale with the tank's damage potential, and so somewhat with their threat.
This has been a somewhat controversial ability that has become quickly dismissed by the tanking community. The advantages and disadvantages make this a hard value to pin down. The worms summoned are their own entities. As such they do not contribute to your threat with their damage or healing, and the heals they provide do count towards their healing not the tanks. These worms heal based on their damage, which in turn scales very lightly with the tanks AP. For a well-geared raid tank, with raid buffs, the worms will heal for around 200-250 every 2 sec, each. That means that the maximal value for each worm will be about 100-125 hps for their lifespan. On average you will see 3-4 worms at a time. The other side of the equation is two-fold. First, because of the way the worms are coded, they will simply attack the boss the most direct way they can, they will not position behind the boss. Because of this, and the fact that they can be parried (and they will they receive none of your hit/expertise buffs), they can generate parry-haste for the boss. Also, because they have so little health and no natural AoE avoidance like other pets, they will die very easily to any environmental or cleave damage. This combination of elements has made them very unpopular for tanks.
Death Strike
Though it is not a talent, I want to mention this here, because it is a very major player in the self-healing game. With the Imp DS talent, this will regenerate 7.5% of the DK's total health, per disease, on each use. This will quickly make up the bulk of the self-healing, even without additional use (i.e. using it only to convert FU pairs, more on this below), but will also have a higher overhealing in practice. This value, like the others, is double-buffed by Vamp Blood, and benefits greatly with increased total health. To give a sense of scale, if DS were used, only to benefit from DRM (i.e. twice per 2 rune sets, or twice per 20 sec), for the tank with 45k health, it would generate 675 hps, before factoring overhealing. If you had a (reasonable) 60% overhealing, that would still be 270 hps, and that value would increase when used additionally as needed for health (this increasing the number of heals and decreasing the typical overhealing percentage).
Combining the many self-healing elements allows the Blood DK tank to shore up their health tremendously. Based on some perceptual experiments I performed on my raid (switching specs without telling my healers what I did, and having sit-down discussions with them about what they noticed about the nature of my healing in familiar situations, Ulduar 25), the appearance to healers of the self-healing is simply that the tank is taking less damage. The counter-balancing element of this self-healing is that it is entirely dependent on the tank A.) using the self-heals, and B.) knowing how to use them well, timing is a major factor in efficiency.

I am writing this post in the final dwindling hours of September. It is still warm and sunny in Portland, but I long for clouds, rain, and cooler temperatures. I am hoping that by eating comforting meals, the weather will take a hint! For example, a few nights ago Tim and I made the Snobby Joes recipe from Veganomicon. I turned mine into a bowl meal by adding roasted potatoes and chunks of avocado. It was pretty spectacular!
It's been a remarkable past few weeks. I am falling into place at my new job and loving every minute. Tim and I went on a hike a few days ago and enjoyed lunch amidst lots of waterfalls.
And finally, I will be participating in the 2012 Vegan Month of Food! I always hesitate because it is a big time commitment, but I love the motivation and challenge it provides me. I tend to be a creature of habit, often cooking and baking my favorite recipes over and over. So, my theme for Vegan MoFo will be to make recipes I have never made before, making sure to use a different cookbook/magazine (from my ever-growing collection) each time. It should be fun! Check back tomorrow to see what sort of nonsense I stir up.

It has not been public investments in sustainable fuels and modern tools that have led to the re-awakening of the U.S. economy. Rather, it's been mostly private investment in shale gas development...
A Multi-Pollutant Strategy
An integrated approach could prove more effective for controlling emissions.
the largest remaining identified source of mercury emissions. 2 Subsequent analysis showed that although there were issues related to how well mercury controls would work across the fleet of coal-fired generation units, these controls were not likely to be inordinately expensive. Most recently, EPA provided Congress with analysis of climate-change legislation in 2007 and 2008, including the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act of 2008 (S.2191) and the Bingaman-Specter Low Carbon Economy Act of 2007 (S.1766). 3 These analyses found the power sector to be the greatest source of emission reductions to achieve the goals of economy-wide CO 2.
Multi-Pollutant Control Efforts
The Clean Air Power Initiative: The Clean Air Power Initiative (CAPI), a stakeholder process initiated in 1995, was the first concerted effort to pursue an integrated regulatory strategy to address electric power generators' emissions of SO 2, NOx, and mercury over a 15-year planning horizon. The effort recognized that CO 2 reductions also were important, but too premature to include at this juncture.
In a 1996 paper, EPA expressed its interest in "reinventing its regulatory approach to reduce the number, administrative complexity and cost of its requirements while improving the likelihood of achieving environmental results." 4 CAPI arose from the intersection of the increasing number of regulations the power sector could face under the CAA and the corresponding transition towards more competitive power markets.
CAPI brought together stakeholders from industry, states and environmental groups. EPA analyzed emission reductions and costs resulting from six different national cap-and-trade scenarios to reduce SO 2 and NOx, and also did some limited analysis of mercury controls. Scenarios set caps beginning nine years out from 1996, with the tightest SO 2 cap at 50 percent below Title IV, and a summer NO x cap based on 0.15 to 0.25 lbs/MMBtu (56 to 69 percent below 2000 summertime NOx emissions). 5 (Alternative scenarios analyzed SO 2 caps five years later at 50 to 60 percent below Title IV.) The analyses found reductions in 2010 on the order of 54-67 percent from base-case levels for summer NOx and 27-41 percent for annual SO 2. Costs ranged from $1.7 billion to $3.8 billion in 2005 and $3.8 billion to $6.5 billion in 2010 (all dollar values are expressed in 2007 dollars for comparability). 6 EPA also analyzed a traditional command-and-control approach for these pollutants, finding costs to be nearly twice that of the cap-and-trade scenario.
CAPI modeling showed that national trading and banking approaches for annual SO 2 and seasonal NOx could provide significant reductions throughout the country, with the greatest reductions generally occurring in areas of highest emissions. 7 However, without a regulatory driver for additional controls in 1996, the process wound down.
In a novel turn of events, in 1998 EPA entered into a settlement agreement that required additional multi-pollutant analysis regarding the mercury listing determination. EPA produced a report in March 1999 entitled "Analysis of Emission Reduction Options for the Electric Power Industry" that examined a number of hypothetical options for further SO 2, mercury, and CO 2 emission reductions in conjunction with the NOx reduction

Sloppy Tuna pops up in NYC
If you've been hearing rumors that the Montauk hot spot Sloppy Tuna has moved to Manhattan, the truth is a definite "sort-of."
As do most East End bars and clubs, the actual Sloppy Tuna (148 S. Emerson Ave., Montauk, 631-647-8000) is closed for the season, but in a move that usually happens in the opposite direction, the 'Tuna has opened a pop-up shop in Manhattan. Located at the Roger Smith Hotel (501 Lexington Ave., between 47th and 48th streets., 212-755-1400), customers can find branded merchandise like hats, sweaters, T-shirts and more — definitely a notable occurrence as while during the summer, it's commonplace for city businesses to open pop-up shops in the Hamptons and around the East End — but seeing a Montauk nightspot set up a satellite store only a few blocks from Rockefeller Center in December is quite the reversal.
But before heading into the city ready to hit the bar, keep in mind this is a retail shop, not a tavern — and guests are more than welcome to walk in directly from the beach out in MTK, the Manhattan store is nowhere near the ocean, so just stick with your street clothes and come looking for duds, rather than suds. There is no dedicated section for barroom fun, so be sure and watch the Sloppy Tuna's Twitter account (twitter.com/thesloppytuna), as that's where announcements concerning upcoming happy hour specials (the last was a free glass of Champagne back on Dec. 6) and possible parties (the opening bash took place on Dec. 1) are easily found.
The Sloppy Tuna Pop-Up NYC is scheduled to stay in place until Monday, Dec. 31; for more information check thesloppytuna.com and facebook.com/thesloppytuna.
