With so many species of parrots, may be faster and easier to shop bird supplies by type of bird.
Parrots vary considerably by size, care needs and temperment. So ... for instance parakeet would need completely different pet bird supplies than an African Grey Parrot. Even our own two species of African Grey Parrots need different sized supplies. Our Congo, Smokey, is bigger all around. He chews bigger toys, needs bigger perches and needs a bigger bird bed. And, he is a lot more spirited. Our Timneh, Timmy, on the other hand, becomes a little overwhelmed with a thicker bird perch that Smokey would enjoy.
Don't know exactly what species of pet bird you have? Hey, just use your smart phone and send us a picture! We are here to help.
Maybe it seems like an invasion of privacy when we ask you to identify what kind of parrot these bird supplies are for...
With about 19 species of Macaw's and at least 15 species of Conures, you need to be able to rely that the place you are buying bird supplies from will check and double check that you are buying the right products. No one enjoys buying stuff over the internet - only to find out that you didn't get a useful item. Information about your pet bird is always held in confidence.
Your privacy is important to us. Just because we ask you about what type of parrot you plan to use the supplies for, doesn't mean that we'll blab it to anyone.
We care at BirdSupplies.com! We are passionate about you and your parrots - and it shows in our customer service. If the item(s) you ordered are not right for your bird, we will literally call you up or email you and discuss your order with you. We don't care whether the order is shipping within the U.S. or all the way to Australia! We want all parrots to get the loving care that they need and deserve. No one enjoys the hassle of trying to return something that doesn't fit or work for their bird.
When you let us know what type of bird you're purchase is for, we can email, call or text you in case you ordered something that we don't think is appropriate for your bird.
Think how much hassle that saves you! Large, big box pet stores don't take the time to do that. They just want to get the order out and cross their fingers that you don't return it.
We want you and your bird to be happy with your purchase right out of the box.

- Woah!! Review by SLB, Overseas
Quality Price Value
I'm currently deployed overseas, and I work on aircraft on a daily basis. I've always fought acne, but the unusually dirty environment has made it incredibly hard to keep my pores small and my face clean of grime and oil. (I was washing my face three times a day and still getting no where.) I bought this product, and I couldn't be happier with what it does for my skin. It acts like a barrier against dirt and pollution that comes in contact with my face! It not only minimizes my pores, but I've noticed an EXTREME decrease in blackheads as well as my acne, when I use it once before I work, and once when I'm finished working. I'm really eager to try more products from DermaDoctor, because I've never been more impressed with a facial product!
- MAGIC!! Review by Tucson, AZ
Quality Price Value
I have had problems with adult acne since back in my twenties. Now, in my fourties, I have discovered this miracle stuff and my skin has NEVER looked so good!
- No more enlarged pores!! Review by MT, New Zealand
Quality Price Value
This product is great, my pores have been reduced significantly - especially on my cheeks which was the problem area. It hasn't completely eradicated my blackheads though (around my nose).
- I didn't believe it. Review by AT, NJ
Quality Price Value
Believe it. I was very skeptical about this doing anything close to what it claims to do but I have to say it is truly amazing. It has reduced my pore size at least 50% - thus clearing up blackheads. It provides a nice surface for makeup application. It's more a gel than a lotion or cream - not oily at all. I can't say enough about it - I use it every day and will continue.
- Wow...This is a miracle Review by js, Orlando, FL
Quality Price Value
I recently order this and noticed almost immediate results. I have only been using for about 5 days (twice a day) and have visible results. My pores look a lot smaller. I am soooo glad I found this and wish I would have found it sooner. Will buy from now on.... I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT... It works
- Great Product Review by KP, Plymouth, WI
Quality Price Value
I have several large pores and saw them appear much smaller in two days. The pores usually filled up with makeup but not after using Porefect Pore Minimizing Solution. I will order again.
- So far no improvements. Review by Rachel, Seguin, TX
Quality Price Value
I've been using it for a week and I've seen no improvements neither in pore size or oily skin. I will keep using it because I do have extremely oily skin and huge pores and everyone raves about this products. I guess it will take longer on me. I just ordered Teaze Zone, I used it 3 years ago and did wonders on my oily skin. I also ordered Ain't Misbehavin Cleanser but it's in backorder. I'm hoping that the combination will do a better job. I'M NOT GIVING UP!
- so far one of the best products Review by PJ, Ofallon, MO
Quality Price Value
I have spent alot of money on other well known products and nothing worked for my large pores. I was a little skeptical but I bought the pore minimizing I have used it for 4 days now and I so far am not dissapointed. I am very suprised at the shrinkage in the pore size but nothing can come quick enough so looking forward to the next few weeks to see what happens further
- Love It! Review by Norman, OK

I never write reviews on any product that does not work but this one REALLY works!! my face looks sooo much better! my pores are smaller and my face is less oily! I love It!!

One is the daughter of a music legend and the other is the daughter of one of Hollywood's greatest directors so it's little wonder that they're paths have crossed. Not only have they crossed however, but Nicole Richie has invited Sasha Spielberg, daughter of Jurassic Park and E.T. director Steven to star in the video campaign for her new Winter Kate collection. While she may easily have remained in her father's blockbuster shadow, 22-year-old Sasha is forging a career for herself as as a musician in the band Wardell. Based in LA, the group has caught the attention of some of Tinseltown's finest, including Nicole who snapped up the singer to represent her new collection.
Sasha Spielberg with fellow Hollywood child Emma Roberts
In the wistful video, titled Memory Lane and directed by Hugh Lippe, boho beauty Sasha is seen walking through the countryside and standing in a barn wearing pieces from the collection including fedoras and denim cut-off shorts. As the sun beats down the up-and-coming talent, who also created the music for the film, spins around in a cream leather jacket and round brimmed shades while a dog barks alongside her - it's ever so idyllic!
Richie said of her decision to cast the daughter of legendary director Steven: 'Sasha truly embodies the Winter Kate and House of Harlow 1960 girl. Someone who is confident and fun, yet still a bit reserved and elegant.'
We reckon Nicole could be describing herself there too!

We've seen some good audio deals lately. Now, Newegg is throwing down the gaunlet. OK, maybe not. They are, however, throwing out a very nice coupon code.
The retailer has the Klipsch Reference RW-12d Subwoofer listed on its website for $469.99. This is certainly a nice price, given the sub's $999.99 list. However, if you add the coupon code EMCNENJ96 during checkout, the price will come down to $329.99. That's an extra $170 off and the cheapest we've seen this subwoofer. It also includes free shipping. Score!
Even better, the Reference Series RW-12d Digitally Controlled Subwoofer (DCS) can put the boom into your room—as well as your music, your movie watching, and more. The RW-12d has a 12-inch front-firing Cerametallic woofer and a 340-watt RMS amplifier, as well as Klipsch's own Corner Port Technology to smooth out the sound. Other features include three user-adjustable presets (music, movie and night) and an IR sensor so you can use it with a remote or other controller.
Remember to use the above coupon code to get the lowest price possible. Newegg says that the coupon offer will expire at the end of the day on Monday, May 7, 2012, or whenever the retailer runs out of stock.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Associated Press
VENICE, Italy (AP) -- Oscar-winning director Bernardo Bertolucci initially didn't want to head the Venice Film Festival's jury, saying it's "tremendously tiring."
But the 73-year-old Italian said he "caved in" after festival director Alberto Barbera wrote a letter in which "he succeeded to present some responsibilities I would have for cinema, above all for those who are starting out."
"Probably after the festival I will return to Rome and I will burn that letter," Bertolucci said Wednesday on the film fest's opening day.
The 70th edition kicked off Wednesday with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney starring in the 3D space odyssey "Gravity," which made its world premiere out of competition.
Contenders for the coveted Golden Lion include Terry Gilliam's "The Zero Theorem," Peter Landesman's "Parkland" and Kelly Reichardt's "Night Moves." Prizes will be announced Sept. 7.
"I have to say what I want most is to be surprised also in the prizes we award," Bertolucci said.
The 12-day festival requires the main jury to screen 20 films for the Golden Lion.
But Bertolucci, who won an Oscar in 1987 for directing "The Last Emperor," said Barbera's letter promised Bertolucci 18 films in competition for the Golden Lion, but made it 20 when the lineup was officially announced, to Bertolucci's chagrin.
"He told me it was not correct," Barbera conceded.

Panasonic's smart TV platform, called Viera Connect, includes the usual assortment of audio, video, news and other odds and ends widgets. There's also a web browser, but navigating around the web with the remote is clumsy (it's a little easier with Panasonic's iPhone app). Viera Connect works a bit differently than other TV's online features—the entire system is cloud-based, so loading can take a bit longer than with TVs from Samsung or LG, but you also don't have to put up with annoying update downloads every so often. If Panasonic wants to tweak the way it looks or change some widgets, then they do it at the cloud level without bothering you.
Picture setting are not as robust as on the upper level Panasonic TVs. There are custom settings, but no ISF or THX modes. On the other hand, this makes calibration pretty simple, and it won't take long to get the TV looking near perfect.
This not the best-looking TV I've seen all year, but it's definitely the best-looking one I've seen at this price, and for the price, you get very good blacks, excellent color saturation and a bright picture that holds up well even in a moderately bright room. Blu-ray movies and high-definition TV programming looked great. The TV includes a video feature for upgrading web-based content, though I thought Netflix content looked only fair—dark scenes especially suffered from a lot of macro blocking, but that's more the fault of the content than the TV.
3D content also looked good with no crosstalk. The TV uses the active shutter method, which requires more expensive glasses than passive TVs (about $80 from Panasonic), so if you're interested in 3D you'll need to shell out more money. If that's a factor for you, and you have a large family, then an LG LED TV with passive glasses may be your better choice.
Overall, this TV offers the best combination of performance and features for a moderate price.

A defense of the total return to shareholders (TRS). Our authors use TRS as the bottom-line performance indicator, and come up with a number of performance insights.
Green Options On the Future
Call options can be used as a financing tool for fixed-cost renewable energy technologies.
In the 3.5 percent case, the price never exceeds 8 cents/kWh, so the call premium is all profit. If wholesale price inflation is 7 percent a year, the call seller ends up with less total revenue, but still may prefer selling calls, since it shifts revenue forward in time.
The revenues above do not capture the benefit of reduced debt finance costs for the call-option seller. The cost of financing the initial project represents a large fraction of the wind operator's annual cost (60 percent in the wind-farm example). Clearly, selling call options can reduce this cost significantly. Forgoing potentially higher future electricity prices is a risk. Nevertheless, it may be viewed as a desirable tradeoff considering the more certain benefit of recovering one-fourth of capital costs immediately.
If the wind farm would produce energy beyond 20 years, say for 30 or 40 years, and one could find willing call-option buyers for the later years, it would be possible to underwrite an even greater portion of the plant capital costs. Since the value of call options increases with more time or more volatility, one can imagine a situation where proceeds from call options are sufficient to pay the entire capital cost. At that point, all the actual electricity sold would be pure profit, whether it was sold at the price cap agreed to under the call-option contract or at prevailing market rates. Perhaps more realistic (given initial liquidity and default/security concerns) would be a situation where a wind farm recovers 5 percent to 10 percent of its investment from selling calls upon project completion, and recovers most of its O&M costs each year from selling a new option 25 or 30 years out.
If renewable-energy producers were to exploit (or at least effectively communicate) the value of predictable operating costs over the long term, they would change perceptions about the cost of renewable energy. Future electricity prices are uncertain because of many factors, but a significant one is the volatility of fossil-fuel prices. Examples illustrated both the costs and benefits available to long-term call option buyers and sellers. Renewable energy sources can and should capture the value that they inherently provide: stable energy prices.
Considerable time and effort has been spent lobbying legislatures for production tax credits and renewable portfolio standards as well as for creating "artificial" markets for green tags, renewable energy credits, and voluntary (in the United States) trading of carbon emissions. It is surprising that an inherently market-oriented solution such as selling call options based on predictable long-term operating costs of fixed-cost renewable electricity has not yet been exploited properly.
In the examples presented above, the call-option buyer paid a current electricity price of 10 cents/kWh and the call option seller received a price of 4 cents/kWh. In part, these different prices reflect the real cost of delivering energy (distribution) from producer to user as well as different pricing in retail versus wholesale markets. There is an opportunity to narrow that gap in the United States electricity market, and to do so profitably. One way would be for electric

Partially water-cooling the R1200RT has evolved it into an even better tourer. The new motor gives it a bit more bite to take on the likes of the Triumph Trophy while not over-stepping the mark. Despite being a large machine the BMW remains light and maneuverable and the addition of power modes and the advanced electronics have brought it bang ...

The world's biggest monster traillie is a ridiculous concept that on paper at least shouldn't work at all. It weighs 223kg, the suspension is three inches taller than the standard R1200GS and with a 33-litre tank full of fuel you need to be Britain's strongest man to lift it off the sidestand. But in reality it's one of the best ...

All-new successor to able but bland BMW R1150RT was one of the surprise highlights of BMW's 2005 motorcycle range. It was not only faster and lighter, the ergonomics and handling package is excellent too. Not just a great tourer, a great motorcycle, period.

It is hard to fault the BMW K1200LT when it comes to the business of transporting two people, plus all their kit, for three weeks touring on a motorcycle. The BMW K1200LT has every mod con you can think of, even if most of them are optional extras, and it goes, handles and stops more than acceptably for such an enormously heavy ...

Anyone could write something similar for Expertise and Hit capping?
A script saying how much hit and exp rating u need to hit the cap would be nice. Thanks all.
I was wondering if you could provide a macro to calculate the avoidance for people like me who use rune of swordshattering, versus stoneskin gargoyle. Also I purposely sit below the defense cap because of the sigil that provides 53 defense rating upon use.
Anyone could write something similar for Expertise and Hit capping?
A script saying how much hit and exp rating u need to hit the cap would be nice. Thanks all.
Just curious, since druids now basically get a "block" when critting from Savage Defense, would it be viable to include the critical strike chance in place of the block for druids? Or am I reading into the ability wrong?
Merely a modified version of the Prot pally/war macro, replace GetBlockChance() with GetCritChance()Code:/run ChatFrame1:AddMessage(format("Unhittable at 102.4%% - you have %.2f%%", GetDodgeChance() + GetCritChance() + 5 + 1/(0.0625 + 0.956/(GetCombatRating(CR_DEFENSE_SKILL)/4.91850*0.04))))
Very interesting, thank you for this.
Some of my BV/BR pieces are blue drops from non-heroic/heroic lvl 80 dungeons I've been saving just for insane BV set.
1.Is it a quicker path to being 'unhittable' stacking BV/Block Rating pieces basically?
2.And am I correct in that Block Value is still more desirable to take then Block Rating for this?

"I'm really happy to see a new version of the macro coming up, but i'd like to ask what kinds of numbers are you guys pulling out?
I'm a pretty geared warrior tank (31.6k health unbuffed) without nightelf racial and only 2 points in shield spec, and i'm pulling out about a 67%/102%... Not really sure if this is average or what conclusions I should draw from it.
I realise unhittable won't be achieveable for a very long time if ever but 35% off is a pretty big jump that I don't think I could get from gear.
Just wondering how I stack up against other tanks. Thanks for the macros again! =D"
I am getting 75.58% in Best in slot gear is the 102.4% achievable for Warriors in game right now?
Also thank you all for putting so much time and brain twisting math into this.
102.4% is achievable, Cider posted when he achieved it here: http://www.tankspot.com/forums/f64/4...e-warrior.html
Edit: To clarify, 102.4 was acheivable before Ulduar so I assume it's easier now, but it required gearing specifically for a lot of block rating which is probably not the best way to gear for progression.
Would it be possible to include resilience in the macro for def cap? That would save lots of math when changing gear XD
Just thinking, I recently took 5/5 imp Demo Shout, to increase the bosses chance to miss, (because I'm an Avoidance Tank right now). And what I want to know is, is there a macro to tell me how much avoidance I'm looking at w/ demo shout on the boss?
I did the paper math, w/o the DR and I ended up with this
Bosses have 573 AP(From a Post I read, based on Beast Lore and 5/5 DemoShout)
5/5 DemoShout reduces AP by 575
Chance to miss increases by .04% for every Defense point higher than the attacking mobs attack power.
I have 545 Defense, w/o buffs/consumables
When boss is affected by DemoShout, its AP is 0
so, 545*.04%= 21.8% Miss Chance.
With my 41.98% Avoidance from dodge+parry, and this new miss chance, I get around 64% total Avoidance. This is all w/o diminishing returns because I don't know the math to factor them in.
So, once again, can anyone tell me how much avoidance I'm looking at, or a macro that will tell me, when DemoShout is up on the boss?
Thanks in advance,
This doesn't seem right.
My Character sheet says:
Defense 542 (400+142)
Defense Rating 577 (+117 Defense)
Increasing Chance to Dodge, Block and Parry by 5.68%
Decreases chance to be hit and Critically Hit by 5.68%
Dodge Chance 24.64%
Dodge rating of 412 adds 10.47 Dodge
Parry Chance 16.53%
Parry Rating of 408 adds 8.30% Parry
5.68 Miss Chance
+24.64 Dodge Chance
+16.53 Parry Chance
= 46.85% so i figured with Diminishing returns, it would be lower. but after running the code i get 50.92%.
I'm confused.

Total avoidance = dodge + parry + miss. You're adding up only dodge and parry.
You forgot your base miss chance of 5%
Your edit makes the included miss a lot clearer, yep. What Jere said, but with an extra 1% non-diminished miss from stoneskin gargoyle on your weapon. That's what the addition of 6 in the macro is for. If you were a night elf, it'd be 8 because of the Quickness racial.
Ahh, Thank you Both
I have a question regarding the Deathknight Macro. It was mentioned that if you're talented into Frigid Deathplate, you simply change the 6 to a 9. But I was curious about Blade Barrier. I'm assuming this counts simply as mitigation, and thus has no place in the avoidance macro. Also, if one were using Sigil of Deflection, would you simply add the dodge chance to the end (2.24% I think).
love this macro
I'm at 78% unhittable (with my Night elf racial)
Bumping - I honestly don't understand the math enough, so I was hoping for an update with the changes to avoidance in 3.2
Those changes will not affect these macros.

Movement 1: Allegro assai
Movement 2: Presto con malizia
Movement 3: Andante con malinconia
Movement 4: Maestoso Allegro, brioso e ardentemente Vivacissimo Maestoso
Another year passed during which three movements were completed. Walton told Christabel Aberconway, one of his close friends, that he thought he had 'brought off something a bit A1 extra'. But the last movement gave him immense trouble, not least because he had spent much of the summer of 1934 writing his first film score (Escape Me Never) for an irresistible fee. Harty, whose plans for the premiere had again been disrupted, announced in November 1934 that the symphony would be performed on 3 December without a finale. He wrote to Foss: 'Why don't you go over to Switzerland and wrest poor W.W.'s Baroness away from him so that he can stop making overtures to her and do a symphony for me instead!' The three-movement version was a success but it was only a stop-gap. Walton wrote to his friend Patrick Hadley that he was determined that the finale should be up to the standard of the rest. 'I've burnt about three finales … and it is only comparatively lately that I've managed to get going on what I hope is the last attempt.'
Unfortunately the impression persisted at the time of the three-movement performance that Walton could not think of a finale, a misconception he inadvertently fostered by admitting that he 'had to wait for the right mood and could not think of the right thing to do'. In fact while working on the slow movement he had already begun the finale. Its beginning and magnificent coda were composed by December 1934. He was dissatisfied with the middle section until Constant Lambert suggested a fugal episode. The symphony was finished by 31 August. It was played in full on 6 November 1935 when Harty conducted the BBC Symphony Orchestra in the Queen's Hall, London. None of the above would matter much if it had not led to a critical litany that the finale was 'tacked on' and did not fit the rest of the work. On the contrary, it seems to be the only right and proper end to the symphony, the inevitable resolution of all that has gone before and Walton himself thought it was the best movement.
The opening of the symphony, with the drum roll on B flat, the harmony on the horns, the rhythmic and throbbing crescendo in the strings and the oboe's repeated-note melody, is among the most exciting starts to a symphony ever written. It precipitates a passionate, frenzied drama, in which there is little lyrical respite and in which strings and brass tear the heart out of the themes, worrying at them as if they had caused some harm. One could analyse this movement in terms of intervals, pedal points and ostinati, but a personal drama was clearly at the root of this score. A friend remarked: 'The trouble was that William changed girlfriends between movements.' Some time in 1934 Imma left him for another man and he fell in love with Alice, Viscountess Wimborne, with whom he lived happily until her death in 1948. In spite of the break-up, Walton retained the dedication of the symphony to Imma.
In the scherzo, marked Presto con malizia, the 'malicious' designation is no illusion. Walton's sharply accented rhythms convey good humour in Portsmouth Point and Façade. Here there is spite, stinging and lashing. It gives way, in the slow movement, to the solo flute's desolate melancholy which, in an Allegro version, was the first part of the work to be composed. A second important theme is played by solo clarinet over pizzicato strings. The climax of the movement is a passage of full orchestral fury which dies down to leave the flute alone with its lament in C sharp minor. The finale's B flat wrenches us back to reality and confidence. The majestic introduction is succeeded by a busy Allegro, but phrases from the 'crown imperial' opening recur and it comes as no surprise, after the fugue, when the majestic music returns. A distant poignant trumpet call is but a momentary interruption in the salvoes of strings, brass and drums which bring the symphony to its dramatic close.
The symphony enjoyed an ecstatic reception from musicians, critics and public. It was recorded a month after the first performance. Walton was now established as the 'white hope' of English music and he was an obvious choice to be asked to compose a march for the Coronation of King George VI in 1937. But he was under no illusions and said prophetically in 1939: 'Today's white hope is tomorrow's black sheep.' Six years later, when the Second World War was over, he found himself out of favour with the new generation of critics, for whom Schoenberg's atonality was the flavour of the decade, and superseded by Benjamin Britten, eleven years his junior, whose opera Peter Grimes had swept all before it in 1945.

At least 12 people are dead, including a shooter, after at least one gunman dressed in all black opened fire Monday morning inside the U.S. Navy Yard in Washington, D.C., officials said Monday.
One suspect is dead after a shooting at the Washington Navy Yard, but two others may be on the loose, the D.C. police chief said Monday. Earlier reports said two suspected gunmen were "down" in the shooting.
Police were looking for two other potential shooters, Washington, D.C., Chief of Police Cathy Lanier said late Monday morning. Lanier said authorities were looking for a white man and a black man in military-style clothing who could be connected to the shooting.
Washington D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray said at least 12 people are dead, including a shooter. At least 10 people were reported wounded.
The injured included a Washington, D.C., police officer who has been hospitalized, and another law officer not affiliated with the city force.
Three people, including the D.C. police officer, were admitted to MedStar Washington Hospital Center with multiple gunshot wounds. They are expected to survive, chief medical officer Janis Orlowski told reporters.
One person was pronounced dead at George Washington University Hospital, according to Dr. Babak Sarani, chief of trauma and acute care there.
Here is a map of the Washington Navy Yard in relation to other DC landmarks. The Navy Yard is located just off the Anacostia River.
A family member of a Navy Yard worker who was evacuated during a shooting arrives hoping to find him at a makeshift shelter at the Nationals Park baseball stadium near the naval installation.
Evacuees raise their hands as they are escorted from the scene of a shooting at the Washington Navy Yard.
A law enforcement officer keeps bystanders back from the shooting scene.
The incident occurred at 8:20 a.m. when several shots were fired inside the headquarters for Naval Sea Systems Command.
Two witnesses told CNN affiliate WJLA that they heard a fire alarm go off in the building where they worked, then saw a man with a rifle down the hallway as they exited the building.
"He aimed the gun and fired our way," a man who identified himself as Todd Brundidge told WJLA, adding, "I couldn't believe it."
Emergency personnel, the FBI, U.S. Capitol Police and local D.C. police responded to the shooting, shutting down traffic in the area on the district's south side along the Anacostia River. Some people were evacuated and others were sheltering in place.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives sent a team of about 20 special agents to the scene, a law enforcement official said. The team was the same group that helped apprehend Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the official said.
Air traffic to Reagan National Airport in northern Virginia, the closest airport to downtown Washington, D.C., was briefly suspended and schools in the area were on lockdown.
Security was also stepped up at the Pentagon.
A White House statement said President Barack Obama has been briefed on the situation.
Before starting a previously scheduled speech on the economy, President Barack Obama took a few minutes Monday to talk about the shooting. "We will do everything in our power to make sure whoever carried out this cowardly act is held responsible," he said, adding the shooting targeted military and civilian personnel. "We still don't know all the facts. But we do know that several people have been shot and some have been killed," he said. "So we are confronting yet another mass shooting. And today it happened on a military installation in our nation's capital."
The headquarters -- the workplace for about 3,000 people -- is the largest of the Navy's five system commands.
It has a fiscal year budget of nearly $30 billion.
"With a force of 60,000 civilian, military and contract support personnel, NAVSEA engineers, builds, buys and maintains the Navy's ships and submarines and their combat systems," the Navy said.

Chris Drake enters his fifth season as the head coach of the Dartmouth men's tennis team.
This past season, Dartmouth wrapped things up with an overall record of 17-6 and a conference record of 4-2. Four members of the team were named All-Ivy, while freshman Dovydas Sakinis was named the 2014 Rookie of the Year, the first in Dartmouth men's tennis history. He was also the first Big Green men's tennis player since Mark Brodie in 2008 to be named All-Ivy First Team. Throughout the season, Dartmouth defeated Cornell, Penn, Princeton, and Yale in Ivy League action.
In 2012-13, Drake led the Big Green to a 9-14 record and a 1-6 mark in Ivy League action. For the second year in a row, Drake had a pair of players receive second team All-Ivy accolades in doubles action. During the season, the team scored non-conference wins against Marquette, Iowa, Radford and a ranked East Tennessee State squad. Dartmouth also netted a 4-3 win against Columbia in Hanover on Apr. 7.
In 2011-12, his second year in Hanover, Drake led the team to a 18-4 record overall and a 4-3 mark in Ivy League play for the second consecutive season. Also for the second year in a row, the Big Green finished in the top three of the final Ivy League standings. In just two years, Drake has begun to restructure the program at Dartmouth and instill a tradition of winning. Drake coached senior Michael Laser and junior Alex de Chatellus to second-team All-Ivy doubles. The 18 wins was a program record and the team ended the season ranked No. 49 (the highest in program history).
In the spring of 2012, Dartmouth squared off with Harvard in the last match of the season with a share of the Ivy Title on the line. After an impressive comeback in doubles, the Big Green led the match, 3-2, before losing the last two matches in three sets to drop a heartbreaker 4-3 to the 23rd-ranked Crimson.
The eight Ivy League wins by the Big Green under Drake match the total Ivy league wins for Dartmouth in the previous 10 Ivy League seasons combined.
In his first season at the helm for the Big Green, Chris Drake led the team to a 13-7 record overall and a 4-3 mark in the Ivy League. The 4-3 record in the conference marked the best finish by Dartmouth in 13 years. Not only did the Big Green earn four wins, but all three losses came by the 4-3 variety.
In 2010-11, Dartmouth jumped into the national rankings for four weeks during the season, reaching a high of 71st in the nation. Drake had two players named All-Ivy with three honors. The Dartmouth duo of junior Michael Laser (Glencoe, Ill.) and sophomore Xander Centenari (Towson, Md.) earned first-team honors in doubles. Centenari also garnered second team All-Ivy honors in singles.
Before coming to Dartmouth, Drake served as an assistant coach at Northwestern. The 2009 Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Midwest Regional Assistant Coach of the Year, Drake was an instrumental force in elevating the men's tennis program at Northwestern as the Wildcats' recruiting classes in 2008 and '09 were ranked 12th and eighth in the country, respectively, by tennisrecruiting.net. This past March, Northwestern achieved its highest national ranking in five years at No. 34.

"My family keeps raving about how cute this Valentine card turned out. I chose the tan/red combo since it was a little more masculine and complimented the colors in the photo that I used."
"This Valentine's Day card was the perfect card to use for a pregnancy announcement! The quality of the card stock was 10x better than other purchases I've made from other retailers. The colors were also vibrant!"
"Gorgeous card! I think I should've limited what I wrote on the back though, so I could've written more to folks! Loved/Love the card!"
"The best part of this product is that the Tiny Prints team at every level are the best and most flexible to work with. Everyone is understanding, cordial and helpful when you want to make design changes to accommodate and make the card work for you. Tiny Prints means it when it guarantees that if a mistake is made and you are not satisfied or pleased, they will correct the mistake and redo the card at no cost to you the client. They did this for me without any contention and graciously. I think Tiny Prints produces a lovely product and that the people who work there are a team and know how to do business and please the customer. I am very pleased with my card and the results and prompt receiving of the card in spite of all the changes and challenges that occurred. Thank you to all who helped me!"
"I like this layout for it's simplicity. The wording does not interfere with the photo - allowing the photo to be the centerpiece of the card. I also liked that I could select various layouts on the back."

Rumors are spreading as to why Dino Bravo was killed while sitting in his own living room last month. Word going around is that the former WWE star was heavily involved in trafficking cigarettes, and he probably did some bad business with the mafia.

It's rare that a Christmas episode of Top of the Pops sheds light on a new sartorial trend but the most recent festive programme featured Kaiser Chiefs' singer Ricky Wilson sporting a vintage brooch on his lapel.

You know when relatives get Christmas presents that just get under your skin? Well, Hama beads were that present during this holiday season. Whether in my pockets, in my shoes, woven onto my laces, down my skinny jeans (don't ask!) they were everywhere.
As videos go this one is kinda dull. There are no explosions, guns or tits nor is there a girl satisfying a horse/dog/herself (delete as applicable) so it's doubtful that this is the kind of fodder we would usually ogle on our TV's or behind our bedroom's locked door. However there are shoes, lots of lovely shoes. The video is from Band of Outsiders and showcases their collabo with Sperry bringing some awesome deck shoes for the coming season.
Over on the newly facelifted hypebeast.com is a slightly gushing but none the less interesting interview with Tommy O'Gara of Dita. Dita sit happily in the high end of the eyewear market making their name over the years for excellent craftsmanship rarely matched by other brands. Concentrating most of their efforts on the ever stylish Californian and Japanese consumers O'Gara describes the brand as having a "retro modern edge" which fits nicely into the current climate of retro style- definitely one to look out for.
Right so hopefully by now you have your look squared off to a tee, but as I may have mentioned before style does not begin or end with your clothes so now it's time to adorn your bed with some uber cool bedding. From the mad caps at Bless comes this bed spread with a life size sleeping couple printed …
Like most things in fashion the popularity of glasses waxes and wains, right now it's waxing- which is lucky for me, a closet speccy four eyes- thick rims and in particular Ray Bans are hot shit right now so much so that people with perfect 20 – 20 vision are donning pairs with clear glass lenses in. So now is the time to announce some exclusive and pretty unaccessible frames for you to drool over, to the left is the Moscot Lemtosh frames in a whole new colourway, these frames have outlasted entire generations spanning pop culture from Buddy Holly to Johnny Depp and to the right is the latest collab between Stussy and Kotake Cyobei Saku, more contemporary than the Moscot this pair of the already proven Naomi frames takes a subtle edge with an all black rim.

WASHINGTON - Call it the scariest horror flick ever made, a "Moby Dick" action adventure, a social commentary on beach towns and greedy mayors or a humanistic story of family, science and wonder.
What better way to conclude WTOP Shark Week than with a "behind the scenes" look at the source of our fascination, the best-selling novel that became the "original" summer blockbuster, winner of three Oscars (editing, sound, score) and a classic that still has the chops to chill us decades later?
Hell on water
"When I first hear the word 'Jaws,' I think of a period in my life when I was much younger than I am now," director Steven Spielberg says in the documentary "Spotlight on Location: The Making of Jaws." "Because I was younger, I was more courageous, or I was more stupid, I'm not sure which. So when I think of 'Jaws,' I think about courage and stupidity, and I think of both of those things existing underwater."
Spielberg was relatively unknown at the time, having directed the TV movie "Duel" (1971) about a killer tractor-trailer, and one big-screen feature, "The Sugarland Express" (1974), starring Goldie Hawn. When production on "Jaws" ran over schedule by four times the planned amount, the 20-something Spielberg was almost fired, but producer Richard D. Zanuck fought for him to remain on the picture. Just think of all the great movies we would have missed if Spielberg had been labeled a failure.
The reason for the delay was that the film's star had stage fright. The mechanical shark, nicknamed "Bruce," did not react well to the waters off Martha's Vineyard, and it did not work most of the time. While this created headaches for production, it was a blessing in disguise, forcing Spielberg to find creative ways of depicting the shark, like pulling a fishing pier or a series of harpooned yellow barrels.
Less is more
The result was a series of terrifying POV shots set to John Williams' Oscar- winning, two-note score, which Spielberg credited for half the film's success. It ranked No. 6 on AFI's Top 25 Movie Scores, and can be hummed even by those who have never seen the film.
Let this be a lesson for today's gore-obsessed filmmakers that less is more. Not only did the film limit the special effects appearances of the shark, which are bound to date over time, but it cemented the notion that the "unseen" is almost always scarier than the seen (i.e. Robert Wise's "The Haunting"). In an era where audiences are desensitized to violence, the biggest terror is that which screws with our imagination. Spielberg knew this well in the film's shocking opening scene, voted Bravo's No. 1 Scariest Movie Moment.
"The book does describe the shark before you see the attack. I thought what could really be scary was not seeing the shark and just seeing the water," Spielberg says. "We're all familiar with the water. Very few of us have been in the water with a shark, but we've all gone swimming. And the idea of this girl going swimming and the audience going swimming with her would have been too extraordinary if, like a Leviathan, the shark had come out of the water with its jaws agape and come down on her, and it would have been a spectacular opening for the film, but there would have been nothing primal about it. It would have just been a monster moment that we've all seen.
"I really wanted to do it without seeing the shark in that case, and I wanted the violent jerking motions to just start to trigger our imaginations into either thinking about what was happening below the surface or blocking what was going on below the surface."
A director is born
That's Spielberg himself yanking the girl underwater, tugging on a special harness for the initial shark bite. His "touch" is apparent in instances throughout the film, perhaps his best directorial effort, save for his two Best Director Oscar wins for "Schindler's List" (1993) and "Saving Private Ryan" (1998). For example:
- The reflection of book pages flipping in Brody's glasses, and the reflection of the shark barrels in a window of the Orca.
- The gorgeous composition of Quint standing on the front of the boat.
- The combination of underwater and above-water shots, using a special camera apparatus to hover on the waterline.
- The illusion of a single take (i.e. Hitchcock's "Rope") during the attack on the Kinder boy, using bathers to "wipe" the screen to hide each cut, then using Hitchcock's "Vertigo Effect" of a simultaneous dolly and zoom as Brody witnesses his first attack.
Casting your actor net
Perhaps Spielberg's greatest touch is his flexible, open-minded directing of actors, allowing Roy Scheider to improvise with his on-screen son, mimicking each other's hand motions for a tender moment until the tension is broken by Hooper's knock at the door.
Spielberg had loved Scheider in "The French Connection" (1971), so when the two met at a party, he knew he had found Amity Police Chief Brody.
He also had loved Richard Dreyfus in "American Graffiti" (1973) and asked him to play the biologist Hooper. Dreyfus wasn't thrilled about the role and came aboard kicking and screaming. The role inspired his casting as the lead in Spielberg's "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" (1977).
Murray Hamilton ("The Graduate") was always the first choice to play Amity's scumbag mayor, and Spielberg cast Lorraine Gary as Brody's wife Ellen because he liked her work on television.
As for the role of Quint, Spielberg originally wanted Lee Marvin ("Point Blank") or Sterling Hayden ("The Godfather"), but producers Dick Zanuck and David Brown suggested Robert Shaw, who had just wowed audiences in "The Sting" (1973). Shaw's drunken chemistry with Scheider and Dreyfus is priceless as they swap stories, compare scars and sing "Show Me the Way to Go Home."
From novel to screen
The entire notion of the film was a simple yet novel idea. Why had no one tapped the dark depths and primal fears of the water before? Sometimes the best ideas are right under our noses. Peter Benchley captured a universal terror in his 1974 best-seller, starting a trend of Spielberg adapting novels into hits, from Michael Crichton's "Jurassic Park" to Thomas Keneally's "Schindler's List."
Benchley wrote the first draft of the script, Spielberg wrote the second, then Carl Gottlieb ("The Jerk") wrote the final version. Ironically, the film's most famous line was not even in the script. Roy Scheider improvised, "You're gonna need a bigger boat," and it became a pop culture phenomenon, voted No. 35 on the AFI's Top 100 Movie Quotes.
Spielberg's favorite scene remains the U.S.S. Indianapolis speech, written three times, first by screenwriter Howard Sackler ("The Great White Hope"), expanded into a lengthy speech by John Milius ("Magnum Force," "Apocalypse Now"), then rewritten by Robert Shaw for his own taste.
Quint originally was supposed to die "Moby Dick"-style, tangled in a harpoon and dragged underwater. Instead, Spielberg insisted on going out with a bang. After Quint loses a knife battle with the shark, Chief Brody chucks a compressed-air canister into the shark's mouth and shoots, exploding the shark into itty-bitty fish bait. Colleagues warned that this ending might feel unrealistic, but Spielberg said that if he had the audience in his palm for two hours, he could afford to go big.
Movie theater memories
I had the privilege of seeing this recently at the AFI Silver Theater in Silver Spring, and let me tell you, today's youngsters roared at the exploding finale. It proved "Jaws" makes a killer movie theater experience all these years later.
I fondly recall stories of my mother seeing the film upon its release as a little girl, describing a hotshot man in a suit jumping over the seat into the row in front of him when the shark came out of the water.
Folks shared similar memories with me last week along Wisconsin Avenue in Northwest:
- Diane from D.C.: "I think of seeing the movie in the theater when I was a little girl living in Fort Lauderdale (Florida), going to the beach and being afraid of going in the ocean for many years after that."
- Chris from D.C.: "What I notice is a lot of people use the phrase, 'We're gonna need a bigger boat,' which I think is from that movie. I think a lot of people here in D.C, like politicians, talk about what we're doing isn't big enough, we need to do something more drastic, more impressive. So I think that's one of the things that sticks with me from the movie."
- Veronica from D.C: "I'll tell you what really made people go, 'Ahhh.' [It was] 'doo doo doo doo.' The music!"
- Justin from Colorado: "When we were kids, in our [public] swimming pool, they would do a 'Jaws' night. So, you'd go out in the pool on your tube, they'd play the movie and they'd always have some lifeguard that would wear a 'Jaws' outfit and scare the fifth-graders."
- Nikel from Connecticut: "For me, it's the Universal Studios ride. No matter
how many times I did that, I always thought it was going to eat me."
- Phil from Vienna: "I remember him throwing that canister in the shark's mouth
and then shooting it ... That was a good way to end it."
If you add up all these movie memories, you'll get the first movie in history to gross $100 million, achieving in just 80 days what it took "Star Wars" six months to accomplish.
The modern summer blockbuster was born, Spielberg's career had been launched and a worldwide phobia had set in for beachgoers everywhere: "Don't go into the water."

So it was that Paris Fashion Week came to a close this afternoon with British designer Giles Deacon making his Paris debut, presenting the best GILES collection we have seen in ages. Daphne Guinness, the extraordinary looking millionaire-socialite with a skunk white streak in her hair was the well-chosen muse, and she actually opened and closed the show - her lips set in a perfect 'O' pout. So why was this the best Giles show we have seen in ages?
For one, the clothes were for day as well as night (previous Giles shows have featured fabulous, but somewhat overblown, evening creations). This collection had daytime options galore that will delight the Graziaoffice, as we are always wishing Giles would create clothes for our daily life. A slimline sleeveless cocktail dresse that hit above the knee came in aquamarine or Barbie pink silk and was covered with a repeat Tarantula print. Also perfect was a pale20gold collapsed puffball mini-dress with a matching collarless jacket. We even saw a work skirt suit in a khaki\gold jaquard!
One of the best looks was an ice-blue metallic pencil skirt, with blanket stitching that ended in fringing and a loose silk creamy oyster blouse, polished off with matching slingback kitten heels (yup, they're coming back and next season we will all be wearing them) and a dinosaur handbag.
Giles what has come over you? We're loving this new you. And we have to say we really really loved the evening wear, this too was toned down from past efforts which were aimed squarely at major red carpet events. These girly yet luxe frou-frou frocks were mostly sexy short corset dresses, finished with a tangle of tulle, sent out in pale lemon, pink or orange with metallic silver accents. He also showed shift dresses in wonderful pink/gold silk jaquards pin-tucked into draped ruches at the front. And all accessorised with kitten heels and his new "Scoobie" sunglasses, designed in collaboration with Cutler and Gross. All-in-all these evening dresses were clothes for a night out for party girls in London, New York, Paris and LA, while the rest of the collection for the morning after. "I wanted to do obtainable clothes that are much more real life" shrugged Giles in his quiet way backstage. Well, we approve!

The existence of markets, particularly traditional market, is the most tangible indicator of economic activities viable in an area. The Government should be more focused and care about the existence of the traditional market as one means the public with cheap cost that support the economic activities of the community. Not just a traditional market where traders and buyers transaction of buying and selling, but also supports a smooth agricultural production, distribution, and small industries that absorb much manpower.
Changing times, changing lifestyles, and quality means carried by some modern commercial retail so great so as to make the existence of the traditional market became a little sink.
This condition is contradictory, given that traditional market sector that actually has the potential and the capacity is big enough, it is also facing competition from product quality means and the development of modern retail sector. The traditional market is the existence of a lifting action is very important, given the activities of the modern market, buying and selling activities occurred between people who want quality and economical product. This should be intensified to speed in innovating the marketing in order to attract consumers who are the keys to success in the retail sector, which should also be implemented on a traditional market to the value of existence that does not fade.
Revitalizing traditional markets are rated very strategically to increase the competitiveness of traditional market amid competition with modern retail and shopping centers are increasingly in various urban areas.
Therefore, the Government is conducting revitalization to stir up and moves back to its existence, as well as traditional market with the concept of one-stop shopping for safe, comfortable, clean and economical for the buyer or the seller.
From traditional market revitalization indication above, are expected to raise the quality of the facilities and management of the market, both in terms of cleanliness, comfort and regularity. If the positive trend of revitalizing traditional markets continue to be maintained, then the existence of the traditional market was able to beat even the existence of modern retailing.

There are four basic stitches in crochet. You can create an entire item from single crochet, the easiest of all crochet stitches, but it won't look very interesting!
All the instructional videos are from crochet expert Teresa of Art of Crochet.
Double Crochet (dc)- Yarn over and stick your hook through the fourth chain stitch. YO and pull through. YO again and pull through the first two loops on your needle. YO again and pull through the last two loops. If you double crochet every stitch, it will be a very tight weave; double crochet every other stitch for a looser weave. Here's a video to demonstrate double crochet.
Triple Crochet (tc)- Now we are just showing off. For this crochet, yarn over TWICE and then stick your hook into the fifth stitch. YO and pull through. YO again and draw it through the first two loops on the hook. Repeat this process two more times until all the loops are off the chain! Again, use tc every other stitch for a loser stitch. Another video might help you out!

Car is balance for both and the engine bay handles the LS motor and actually is lighter that the built BMW turbo motor. Will not build the amount of power the turbo does. You could get close to 900-1000hp on this turbo motor safely with about a $3000 investment with Dynotech Motorsports who put it together with me. Ask for Todd at Dynotech if you are interested. 760-908-7733, he also did most of the work on the car too. -GlennBMW M332ti Turbo by Dynotech Motorsports

Race or Street or both. Fully professionally built custom motor with Cartech Turbo setup. 500 hp on 10lbs of boost and very linear and smooth. Engine can easily handle over 600-700hp. Can run in BMW Car Club Races and Autocross, NASA and SCCA with BMW motor. For street it will pass smog, but needs to have air bags connected. Paint is very nice and has Porsche silver paint that looks amazing. Serious buyers only and call me if you have any questions, thanks. -Glenn
