ATLANTA (AP) - The Equitable Building in downtown Atlanta has been sold to a Florida firm, America's Capital Partners, for $19 million.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the Coconut Grove, Fla.-based group intends to spend at least half that money to fix up the 32-story high rise, one of the city's first modern skyscrapers.
Georgia State University had expressed interest in owning the building, but the Florida group's purchase means it did not win its effort to buy it.
The Equitable was built in the 1960s, and later represented one of the first major casualties of Atlanta's real estate collapse. In 2007, it was acquired by an investment group for nearly $57 million. It was foreclosed by the lender in June 2009 for $29.5 million.

So many, far too many, teach boxing as an exercise you can get good at by doing something else and that simply is not true. I don't give a screaming **** how far you can run or how high you can jump...has nothing at all to do with your boxing ability. If you ALREADY know how to fight, it
may well enhance that ability
. In and of itself it will not make you a good fighter. Learn how to fight. That creates the muscle memory that allows you to slip, counter, turn a guy, all the things that make you slick. Nothing else has **** all to do with it because it is based on boxing specific knowledge and you acquire boxing specific knowledge only by boxing.
It will definitely enhance your boxing ability.
But i dont understand this,no one said you will learn how to be slick by doing yoga.Who implied that?
But will it help that ability? Ofc it will,no question about it.

Burnin' and lootin' Lyrics - Bob Marley
This morning I woke up in a curfew;
O God, I was a prisoner, too - yeah!
Could not recognize the faces standing over me;
They were all dressed in uniforms of brutality. Eh!
How many rivers do we have to cross,
Before we can talk to the boss? Eh!
All that we got, it seems we have lost;
We must have really paid the cost.
(That's why we gonna be)
Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight;
(Say we gonna burn and loot)
Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight;
(One more thing)
Burnin' all pollution tonight;
(Oh, yeah, yeah)
Burnin' all illusion tonight.
Oh, stop them!
Give me the food and let me grow;
Let the Roots Man take a blow.
All them drugs gonna make you slow now;
It's not the music of the ghetto. Eh!
Weeping and a-wailin' tonight;
(Who can stop the tears?)
Weeping and a-wailin' tonight;
(We've been suffering these long, long-a years!)
Weeping and a-wailin' tonight
(Will you say cheer?)
Weeping and a-wailin' tonight
(But where?)
Give me the food and let me grow;
Let the Roots Man take a blow.
I must say: all them - all them drugs gonna make you slow;
It's not the music of the ghetto.
We gonna be burning and a-looting tonight;
(To survive, yeah!)
Burning and a-looting tonight;
(Save your baby lives)
Burning all pollution tonight;
(Pollution, yeah, yeah!)
Burning all illusion tonight
(Lord-a, Lord-a, Lord-a, Lord!)
Burning and a-looting tonight;
Burning and a-looting tonight;
Burning all pollution tonight. /fadeout/

Boeing launched earlier this month the 787 Flight Tracker Program. There are a couple of unique features. The first, is allowing viewers to see on what airlines and what routes the 787 is currently flying. But the more unique aspect is overlaying flight status information with Google Earth. Viewers see a 787 in the airline's livery, flying over graphical landscape in Google Earth, in real-time, as you can see with the Japan Airlines screenshot below.
Once you're on the site, select a specific airline flight, and click on "View in Google Earth". From there, you can zoom in/out to see details of where your 787 flights are. Flight details are updated every 30 minutes, with data from FlightAware. What appealed to me as an aviation geek, were the passenger views, and the engine sounds, as if I'm really in the aircraft right now!
The 787 had already carried a million passengers before it was grounded for safety reasons. After the fix, Boeing needed to showcase that all aircraft are back in the air, and passengers are flying them around the world. And the 787 flight tracker program is a fun and engaging way to build back the brand trust.
Enjoy the screenshots below!

text: Steps for U.S. store delis to reduce Listeria risk Share This: UPI 5/11/2013 8:31:07 PM WASHINGTON, May 11 (UPI) -- No single action can put an end to Listeria in food sold at stores, but U.S. retail deli operators can take steps to reduce listeriosis risk, officials say. A study by the U.S. Agriculture Department's Food Safety and Inspection Service and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration found if all refrigerated, ready-to-eat foods were stored at 41 degrees Fahrenheit or below -- as the FDA Food Code recommends -- at least 9 of every 100 cases of listeriosis caused by contaminated deli products could be prevented. If all deli products that support Listeria growth were reformulated to include growth inhibitor, 96-of-100 cases of listeriosis caused by contaminated deli products could be prevented. This finding is significant, but the actual benefit might be smaller because growth inhibitor might be used in concentrations not effective throughout the shelf life of a food, and it could affect the flavor. In addition, the study found: -- The predicted risk of listeriosis dramatically increased in retail delis as a result of cross contamination, with slicers remaining a particular challenge, but proper cleaning and personal hygiene makes a difference. -- If current levels of Listeria in ready-to-eat foods received by the retail deli from processing establishments were reduced by half, 22 of every 100 cases of listeriosis caused by contaminated deli products could be prevented. Consumers also have a role to play in reducing listeriosis, government officials said. For advice on keeping refrigerated foods cold, cleaning one's refrigerator regularly and cleaning hands and kitchen surfaces often, visit foodsafety.gov.

Box Lyrics - Kathy Mar
I am in a box.
I am locked inside.
Someone owns the locks.
Nowhere left to hide.
Nothing left but hell.
No one left to be.
No one here to tell.
No one here to free.
Nothing you can see;
All the scars are small:
Deeper than the sea,
Closer than the wall.
Nowhere left to hide;
Someone blocks the door.
No one left to ask
What that scream is for.
I am in a box.
I am locked inside.
Someone owns the locks.
Nowhere left to hide.
No one left to cry.
No one here who talks.
Nowhere to be safe.
I am in a box.
Words and music: Kathy Mar

Next Big Thing
It's an easy sell: Four times the resolution of HD. The numbers are easy to understand, 2160p easily identifiable as more than 1080p. Every manufacturer is pushing their top-of-the-line 4K TVs as the next generation of superlative picture quality. But resolution is just one aspect of picture quality. Is it possible that by focusing so intently on this one, easily marketed, improvement, that other aspects are getting neglected, or worse, diminished? The short answer? Yep. Here's how.
CEA says "Ultra HD" or "UHD." Sony, and pith, says "4K." What do you prefer?
In the A-Class concept vehicle, smartphones are tightly integrated with the vehicle entertainment system, and social media apps are the main attraction.
With a $500 budget and a list of rules, we sent some CNET editors out to find the perfect budget laptop.
The technology for live-streaming gameplay is still imperfect, but the era of physical media is ending.
Remember those fancy Core CPUs that debuted last year – y'know, the Core i3, i5 and i7 range? Intel's knocked together a set of second-generation Core chips for 2011.
Graphics-chip supplier Nvidia says demand for its chips will be healthy in 2011, right alongside Intel's newest "Sandy Bridge" processor.
Will the PlayStation 4 have 4K resolution? It probably doesn't matter.
How inexpensive can an ultrabook get? For HP, today's answer is $749 -- or, if you're considering an AMD "sleekbook," $599.
Will we wait three years for the next-gen Xbox to drop or will Microsoft chuck us an Xbox Lite tidbit? Here's our rumour mill round-up.

So close yet so far from the commercial frenzy of upper Biscayne Boulevard and Aventura, Greynolds Park is an oasis of green and calm from the minute you turn off West Dixie Highway. Designated picnicking areas, some with barbecues, abound. For a quieter, more contemplative time, consider a shady spot near the West Lake or one of the tables tucked away in clearings, the latter of which makes for an idyllic setting for sun-dappled, winter-afternoon nuptials. Should you need to burn off the eats, the park is crossed with paths, open fields beckon Frisbee players and kite flyers, and playgrounds are on hand for the smaller fry. And of course, duffers in the crowd can hit the links at the golf course. Operating hours at this county park are 8:00 a.m. to sundown. Admission is free on weekdays and just four dollars per car on weekends and holidays.

Aside from being an unfunny overplayed joke, the term "no homo," as used by Lil Wayne, is hip-hop's admission of homophobia. When Lil Wayne says, "Tevin Campbell, No Homo, Black Rambo" in "Feel Me," he really needs us to know he is not gay. He mans it up a little more by throwing in the "Black Rambo" at the end of the line. Weezy's New Orleans neighbor, Big Freedia, meanwhile, is a pioneer in the unlikely genre known as "sissy bounce." The sound has the speed and kick of Miami bass, with the call and response of gospel music. Sissy bounce artists are usually homosexual or transgendered, with a sexually ambiguous style and flair. Friday, Freedia will bounce her big, sexy, sissy ass — "Azz Everywhere" is both a signature song and an apt description of her shows — at Fitz's at her first Houston stop since a barely promoted Meridian appearance shortly after she and sissy bounce were featured in The New York Times Magazine. It's unlikely she'll change hip-hop's homophobic status quo, but Freedia is loudly letting them know that they're ignorant, wrong and having a lot less fun.

Officials say Virginia Governor Tim Kaine plans to endorse Illinois Senator Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign. Two people with political ties to the governor say that Kaine could make the endorsement as early as this weekend.
Obama will headline the Democratic Party's annual

Kaine will also attend that event, along with Senator Jim Webb and former Governor Mark Warner.
Kaine has a strong political relationship with Obama. The senator traveled to Virginia the past two years to campaign for Kaine's gubernatorial campaign in 2005 and for Webb last fall.

For all you hockey fans
Red Wings acquire Lang
TSN.ca Staff
The Red Wings have done it again. TSN has learned that Detroit has acquired centre Robert Lang from the Washington Capitals for Tomas Fleischmann, a first round pick in 2004 and a fourth round pick in 2006.
Lang is tied for the league lead in scoring with 74 points (29 goals, 45 assists). In eleven NHL seasons, Lang has played in 640 games, tallied 173 goals and dished out 289 assists.
Lang has been in Washington the past two seasons and spent nearly four seasons with the Pittsburgh Penguins. He has also spent time with the Boston Bruins and Los Angeles Kings.
The 19-year-old Fleischmann is among the WHL's leading scorers, with 28 goals and 69 points in 53 games with the Moose Jaw Warriors this season.
Nice pickup by the Red Wings.
Damn you big budget teams! :lol:
Good trade for Red Wings-waiting to see what Colorado -next move is up to them to counter this by Red Wings. Possibly we can dump Miranov or Poti on them for prospects.
A great pickup for the Red Wings, not costing us a single current player. With Ken Holland's ability to find talent in late rounds, it really wasn't that expensive.
The Red Wings just went from hot to downright dangerous. I'm still worried about their defense a little, it's old and banged up. We need Hatcher back and the entire D healthy to be a decent lock in the playoffs.

In one verse, the seven scrawny cows of Pharaoh's dream devour seven pleasantly plump cows, but you can't tell because the skinny cows come to "the innards" (kidneys, livers, tripe—food thought to be delicacies by everyone but me during my Cambridge days), gobble them up, and stay scrawny.

Tuesday belonged to Andrew Wiggins. The nation's top recruit created a buzz unlike any we've seen in recent years in college basketball. Before signing with Kansas, he had showed us his talent and his ability, he let the interest build, and then he kept everybody in suspense until the final hours of the signing period.
He did it on his terms and kept his word regarding his course of action. For that, Wiggins has earned our respect.
Wiggins was masterful at concealing his decision, to the point that no one could really give an educated guess regarding his college destination. And when it finally came time for his announcement, Wiggins showed considerable humility, not to mention tremendous courage. He went against the grain. Wiggins said he followed his heart and signed with Kansas.
Suddenly the college basketball season ahead feels more competitive, more intriguing and more fun – because he didn't go to Kentucky.
For all that he did, we thank Andrew Wiggins.
But let's not overlook Kansas coach Bill Self and what this moment means for him. This moment belongs to Self as well, because he won the battle – an epic battle for an elite recruit. And he got exactly what he needed for his program.
It's not right to compare Wiggins to LeBron James or Kobe Bryant or Kevin Durant or anyone else. It's simply not fair at this point in his playing career. But purely in terms of the recruiting quest, the pursuit of Wiggins and the impact he can have, it makes his signing one of those significant moments that comes along only once every few years.
How did John Thompson feel when he signed Patrick Ewing? How did Larry Brown feel when Danny Manning said yes? It's safe to say Self understands those emotions now. Landing Wiggins will do wonders for Self's reputation, but let's face it, there was very little wrong with Self's reputation when he rolled out of bed Tuesday morning.
This development simply increased his elite status.
"He brings athleticism, length, scoring ability," Self said of Wiggins, "and he's also an assassin, an alpha dog, and we definitely need that when you have a whole bunch of young kids.
"I think he's going to be not just a good player, but has the chance to be a great one. I know the people that support our program are going to be pleasantly surprised when they see him run and play the first time he gets the opportunity."
The other finalists for Wiggins were Florida State, North Carolina and Kentucky. Top recruiting analysts repeatedly pointed out that if Wiggins had a secure relationship with any head coach, it was FSU's Leonard Hamilton. Both of Wiggins' parents were Seminole athletes. Since Wiggins kept everything so close to the vest, Florida State became a popular prediction.
But Self prevailed over Hamilton, his long-time coaching friend. And Self prevailed over North Carolina's Roy Williams, the former Kansas coach whose shadow in Lawrence continues to diminish to the point it may no longer exist. Even so, when Self wins any battle with Williams, he scores big points with KU fans.
More importantly, Self went head-to-head with Kentucky coach John Calipari and beat Calipari at his own game. For whatever reason, Self and Kansas have not fared well with players defined by the "one-and-done" era. Calipari, on the other hand, sets the standard in that department. He collects those players like trophies mounted on the wall at a hunting lodge.
This time, Self bagged the biggest catch – not Calipari. And that is significant.
In 10 years at Kansas, Self has reeled in big recruits, including Xavier Henry and Josh Selby. Both fell short of expectations and left Lawrence early, without making much of an impact. Selby, the No. 5 prospect in Scout.com's 2010 rankings, would qualify as a total flop.
It seems highly unlikely Wiggins will exit the same way. That's a gut feeling, based in large part on the way this superstar handled his recruiting. Wiggins held an old school press conference at his high school gym, surrounded by family, coaches at teammates at Huntington (W.Va.) Prep. There was no national TV feed, no bright lights, and no fiddling with the baseball caps of the final four schools.
The world learned of Wiggins' decision at 12:09 p.m. through the overloaded Twitter account of Huntington Herald-Dispatch sports writer Grant Traylor, the only media member allowed in to break the news.
Self, who had limited contact with Wiggins in the days leading up to the decision, described it as a "surreal feeling. I was so happy. It was a humble happiness." With humility at both ends of the process, that may be the first indicator that Self and Wiggins will be a great match.
Calipari didn't need Wiggins. Based on the abundance of nasty tweets that were posted Tuesday immediately after Wiggins' announcement, there were a lot of Kentucky fans in disagreement with that statement. They wished Wiggins any number of ill-fated consequences. How sad, that people in our society still behave that way.
Kentucky remains the preseason No. 1 pick with its historic recruiting class set to carry on. Wiggins could have subscribed to the Calipari method and signed with the Wildcats. But given Self's track record with improving players such as Thomas Robinson, Cole Aldrich and Ben McLemore, it's obvious Wiggins isn't taking a huge risk at Kansas.
dDepending on how these two young teams jell, there's a good chance now that Self and Calipari could meet in the national championship game again. Self and the Jayhawks rallied to beat Calipari's Memphis team in 2008. Four years later, Kansas made an unexpected ride to the championship game but lost to a Kentucky squad that essentially was an expansion team in the NBA.
Now that Self has denied Calipari the opportunity of hoarding all the top recruits in this class, it will be interesting to watch these men coach and teach. Remember, Kentucky had the top recruiting class in the nation last season and it didn't work out so well. The season ended with a first-round loss in the NIT, proving that nothing is guaranteed.
Calipari woke up Wednesday morning with a ton of talent on his roster – but he's still looking over his shoulder.
In 10 seasons at Kansas, Self has been to two Final Fours and won one national championship. Over that period of time, Kansas has averaged 30 wins a season and Self has led the Jayhawks to nine consecutive Big 12 championships. That's a level of consistency that no program has matched over the same time period.
|Andrew Wiggins dunking at the McDonald's All-American game
With one sentence from the mouth of Andrew Wiggins Tuesday, Kansas went from borderline Top 25 pick in some preseason polls to national championship contender. In our poll for Fox Sports, we raised Kansas from No. 13 to No. 4. Oklahoma State and Baylor, two programs capable of breaking the Kansas streak in the Big 12, suddenly realized the Big 12 goes through Lawrence once again.
Self faces the task of replacing all five starters from last season's team that lost to Michigan in the Sweet 16. But Wiggins joins an already outstanding recruiting class that includes center Joel Embiid, forward Brannen Greene, and guards Conner Frankamp, Frank Mason and Wayne Selden. Sophomore Perry Ellis, who played so well for the Jayhawks down the stretch last season, joins Selden and Wiggins to give KU three McDonald's All-Americans on the roster.
"We had an unbelievable class when we signed Brandon [Rush], Mario [Chalmers], Julian [Wright] and Micah Downs [in 2005-06]," Self said. "That's a big-time class. This one has more upside. . . . But we need to have a great recruiting class because we lost so many guys on taeam that did pretty well this year."
Self has been through the reloading process before at Kansas, but never has done a better job than this. Wiggins praised Self and Kansas assistant coach Kurtis Townsend when he announced his decision and that raises another point about this recruiting effort. The Jayhawks pulled this class together despite the fact that top assistants Danny Manning (Tulsa) and Joe Dooley (Florida Gulf Coast) have departed following the past two seasons.
Self doesn't miss a beat.
It has been said that Kansas caught a break when Wiggins visited Lawrence for Senior Day, always the most emotional day in Allen Fieldhouse. Recruiting skill? Recruiting luck? Recruiting always comes down to a little bit of both.
"After he left, I felt we were definitely in the game and had a shot," Self told the Lawrence Journal-World.
Wiggins' brother, Nick, will be a senior playing at nearby Wichita State next season. He listed that as a positive.
Skill? Luck? Does it really matter?
"I'm looking forward to getting there and just doing my thing," Wiggins said of KU.
And now that we know his decision, that's an emotion shared by most in college basketball – with perhaps a handful of disappointed exceptions. Don't include Bill Self in that group.
"We think he has a chance to be about as good a prospect as we've ever had," Self said.
When you are the head coach at Kansas, that's saying something.

The very best tech you can buy for $150 or less
Summary: Buying tech on a budget? These 17 gadgets are the very best for $150 or less -- from speakers to streamers, coffee machines and computer peripherals.

Amazon Kindle (Wi-Fi)
Amazon's Kindle remains one of the best -- if not the best -- tablets for reading e-books on the go. With a crisp monochrome e-ink screen, it's a delight to read from your hundreds of e-books range. The battery alone lasts for weeks, and you can even download more books with a Wi-Fi connection thanks to its in-built connectivity. And for an extra $30, you can rid your e-reading experience from the annoying ads that subsidize the low-cost device.

Seagate Slim
Not everyone's laptop has enough storage to last them very long, particularly if they're a heavy video user, iTunes downloader, or game player. One of the best portable hard drives on the market for the sub-$100 price point is the Seagate Slim, which offers 500GB of storage and works with both Windows and Mac machines. Thanks to its USB 3.0 connectivity, its data transfer rates are faster than you'd expect.

Logitech K800 Wireless Illuminated Keyboard
This keyboard works with almost every computer on the market, and comes with one highly useful (yet still rare) feature: an illuminated and backlit set of keys. One of the best parts to this keyboard is the recharge function, allowing you to power up the device from a micro-USB cable rather than replacing batteries, which over time can become costly. It's also thin and light — although, a little flimsy in places — but nonetheless one of the best premium wireless keyboards (sans accompanying mouse) for the money.

Rangers-Tigers Preview
Texas Rangers at Detroit Tigers
- The Rangers have won 12 of their last 18 games against the Tigers. During this stretch the Rangers have stolen 23 bases, while the Tigers have stolen just two.
- The Tigers have hit multiple home runs in four consecutive games for just the second time since 2011 (also April 27-30, 2013).
- The Rangers have used an MLB-high 22 different pitchers this season. Nine of those pitchers have started at least once; that ties them with the White Sox for most different starters.
- Over his last 10 home games, Miguel Cabrera is hitting .375 (15/40) with four home runs, 16 RBI and eight runs scored.
- Yu Darvish has struck out at least 11 batters in back-to-back games for the third time in his MLB career. Prior to the two starts, Darvish had not struck out double-digit hitters once this season.
- Victor Martinez has more home runs than strikeouts in 2014, a feat accomplished by only two other players with at least 10 home runs since 1960 -- George Brett (24 HR/22 K in 1980) and Barry Bonds (45 HR/41 K in 2004).

By ALAN FERGUSON
(AP) -- The Detroit Tigers boasted one of the most dominant rotations in the majors, until this past week.
Trying to end his own recent woes, Justin Verlander looks to help his scuffling club get back on track with another stellar home start against the Texas Rangers on Sunday.
Detroit's starters had a major league-best 2.64 ERA in the team's first 39 games but have put up an abysmal 8.55 ERA during a 1-5 stretch. The Tigers (28-17) gave up more runs than in any other game this year and a season-high 19 hits in Saturday's 12-2 drubbing to Texas.
"Every team at some point in the year is going to go through a stretch," catcher Alex Avila told the team's website. "You just try to continue to press on and the ship will right itself."
A day after the Rangers officially lost former Detroit slugger Prince Fielder to a season-ending neck surgery, rookie Rougned Odor went 4 for 5 with two triples, a double and five RBIs. He was batting .194 (6 for 31) with one extra-base hit and two RBIs in his first 11 major league games.
The last three hitters in Texas' lineup - Odor, Donnie Murphy and Leonys Martin - went 8 for 12 with eight RBIs and seven runs. Leadoff batter Shin-Soo Choo, though, was forced to leave with an ailing left ankle and may sit out Sunday.
"I'll have to wait and see how it feels tomorrow," Choo told the team's website.
Verlander (5-3, 3.55 ERA) is 6-1 with a 1.69 ERA in last eight home starts against Texas, including one in the 2011 AL championship series. The Tigers ace took a no-hitter into the seventh inning in those most recent of those games, a 5-0 victory July 14.
Verlander, though, is 1-1 with a 7.50 ERA in his last two outings after posting a 2.67 mark in his first eight games. He gave up a season-high 11 hits and five runs over six innings in Tuesday's 6-2 loss in Cleveland.
Texas (24-25) is batting .354 with a .970 OPS in this series and has outscored the Tigers 23-11 while taking two of three. Adrian Beltre is 10 for 22 with two homers in his last six contests, and Alex Rios is 9 for 18 during a streak of four consecutive multihit performances.
Rios is also hitting .433 in his last seven games against Detroit and is 14 for 40 (.350) lifetime against Verlander. Beltre is batting .381 in his past 32 regular-season contests versus the Tigers and has seven hits in his last 18 regular-season at-bats against the right-hander.
Rios and Beltre will try to support Colby Lewis (3-3, 5.40) as he attempts to bounce back from another lackluster outing. The right-hander is 1-2 with a 7.04 ERA in his last three starts and gave up five runs in six innings in Tuesday's 6-2 defeat to Seattle.
He was tagged for a season-high seven runs and 12 hits in 3 2-3 innings in a 9-2 loss to Colorado on May 7 but bounced back with a 4-0 win in Houston five days later, striking out eight over 5 2-3 innings.
Lewis is 2-3 with a 6.64 ERA in seven career starts against Detroit, including one in the 2011 ALCS.
Victor Martinez, 7 for 17 in his last four games, is 6 for 12 lifetime against Lewis including the postseason. Ian Kinsler is 7 for 12 with four doubles in his first series against his former club and will seek to extend his hit streak to 11 games.

Last meeting: That will be last Sunday's FA Cup exit, where Javier Hernandez swiftly cancelled out a 12th minute opener from Wayne Routledge, who turned provider late on when Bony nodded his cross beyond Anders Lindegaard. United were a man short for the last 10 minutes after Fabio got his marching orders for a crude challenge on Jose Canas shortly after replacing the injured Rio Ferdinand.
Betting: The Reds are 1.45 to win with our official online betting partner bwin, while the draw is 4.25 and Swansea are 6.75 to repeat last Sunday's outcome. Adnan Januzaj had a goal ruled out for offside and came close to scoring several other times at Sunderland, so the talented teenager is temptingly priced at 29.00 to open the scoring in a 2-0 win.
Did you know? Wayne Rooney has more assists – nine – than any other player in the Barclays Premier League so far this season. No wonder United fans are so keen to see the no.10 return to action.
The manager: Michael Laudrup was a class act as a creative midfielder with a host of top European sides in the 1980s and 1990s, as well as a talented Denmark team of the time. His first season in charge at Swansea yielded the club's first-ever major trophy when they claimed the Capital One Cup last year.
Star man: Ivorian striker Bony was a thorn in United's side all throughout last Sunday's cup tie, and the 25-year-old now has 10 goals in all competitions since arriving in south Wales from Vitesse Arnhem last summer.

About 20 picketers gathered Wednesday morning outside the Walgreens flagship store in the Loop to protest a potential Walgreens reincorporation in Switzerland—a move that one new report alleges will allow the company to avoid paying billions of dollars in taxes.
William McNary, co-director of Citizen Action Illinois, held up his Walgreens rewards card in front of the crowd. "I didn't get this card from Switzerland. I got it right here," he said. "Walgreens is an Illinois company."
The report, a joint effort from Americans for Tax Fairness and Change to Win, accuses Walgreens of attempting to move its corporate address to Switzerland to reduce its tax rate from about 30 percent to 20 percent—which, the report claims, could save Walgreens $4 billion over five years.
A merger with Swiss company Alliance Boots could open the door for Walgreens to re-headquarter, at least on paper, in Switzerland.
"We continue to analyze a number of issues as we move toward the window for exercising the second step of our transaction with Alliance Boots, and we will do what is in the best long-term interest of our company and its shareholders," Walgreens spokesman Jim Graham emailed in a statement. Graham declined to elaborate further.
Citing numbers from Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan and UBS, the report calculates that Walgreens could avoid somewhere between $580 million and $1 billion in American taxes annually if the Deerfield-based company is eligible to reincorporate.
"Walgreens holds itself out as a health care provider, and that's really true in terms of the revenue … they're a huge beneficiary of tax dollars," said Nell Geiser, director of retail initiatives at Change to Win, saying Walgreens benefits from Medicare and Medicaid spending. "This kind of company should not be able to use this kind of tax loophole because it's morally reprehensible."
In a blog post countering the report, Washington, D.C.-based think tank the Tax Foundation said the $4 billion calculation is based on the assumption that Walgreens would bring certain foreign earnings back to the U.S., and that even as a Swiss company, Walgreens would be taxed on its American earnings.

1983 Fuji Touring Series IV
As promised, I took some new photos of my commuter after I gave it a thorough cleaning and tune-up. It's a 1983 Fuji Touring Series IV, purchased new, while I was between high school and college.
This go-round, I replaced the saddle with a Brooks B17. I replaced all of the cables and brake cable housings with new Jagwire pieces. And I replaced the original, dried out, gum rubber brake hoods with new, black Cane Creek ones.
This decal lies. I converted the bike to 3x7 years ago.
I added the NOS Suntour bar ends a few years ago, and love them. I'm looking for something more elegant than cable ties to secure the shifter cable housings, but haven't found anything. I still use foam Grab-on grips, just like when new. This is probably my tenth set. The Cane Creek hoods look pretty good with all the black, I think.
When I attempted to remove the stem, I found it frozen to the steerer tube. As I had to get it back on the road, I left it, rather than risking damage. I was still able to service the headset in-situ. And, of course, I had no need to adjust the height. When I get an opportunity, I'll soak the stem/steerer joint and free it up. For now, I was able to polish up the stem and get it looking nice.
Non-drive side. Extra spokes require unconventional mounting of cadence/speed sensor. But it works.
Sticker from bike shop where I bought it. They're still in business, and have a shop in the town where I now live. They get a kick out of seeing my bike on occasion.
I have no idea how many miles I have on this bike. But it's still in pretty good shape for being 30 years old, I think. I still haven't taken that cross-country tour. But some day...

1983 Fuji Touring Series IV
GriddleCakes, your Straggler looks great! Those gold rims actually look good somehow. First Straggler I've seen except for promo photos. I'm surprised the brake cable is run under the top tube -- I guess it's not really a "disc-check"
Once you figure out whether your bike (new frame, used parts) is new or not, you can get to work on that Ship of Theseus question, I hear they haven't figured that one out yet either.
Very good shape indeed! I know you said you love your bar-ends (and just bought new hoods), but I would ditch the levers and move the bar-ends up to Retroshifts -- the brake cables would then be aero, and the shifter cables would be not quite that high.I have no idea how many miles I have on this bike. But it's still in pretty good shape for being 30 years old, I think. I still haven't taken that cross-country tour. But some day...
Between the fenders, light, computer, trunk, rack and big-ole me, I don't think aero is a factor at all. This is my commuter bike, after all.

Personally, I wish there was a solution where cables could be routed inside the handlebars, and then into the stem, and somehow into the frame, popping out by the derailleurs and brakes. I guess whatever would need to be done to make that happen would be a maintenance nightmare, but it sure would look good!

A question to you: you mount bar end shifters on a number of your bikes, most of which seem to be drop bar bikes. I've used the same, and have found them to be great on moustache bars and cruiser/north road bars, but on drop bars I kept hitting my leg on the shifter when I tried pedaling out of the saddle, specifically when starting from a dead stop. Do you think that this is correctable behavior, like avoiding toe strike on a fendered road bike, or do bar end shifters require a certain geometry to avoid knee strike?
Just got this bike on Sunday. Changed seat and tires. Added rack today. I LOVE this bike for my short urban commute and errands.
My Bikes
I was using the red PB light as I had removed my usual lighting (which are also stealth black) to recharge those batteries.
That Moulden sees a lot of use for everything from commuting, hitting the trails, and it has gone on many a road ride as it is really versatile and not much heavier than my steel road racing bicycles with the extra weight being found in the tyres (Schwalbe Hurricanes). If there is going to be a midnight ride you know what bike I will be taking too.
Age means nothing to me when it comes to bikes when the design, geometry and materials all come together this well.
I ride drop bars because my back does not like an upright position and I prefer the greater range of hand positions, the bar ends rarely cause me any issues and maybe that just comes from experience although some folks don't like them for that reason.
Yup. Cambium in Slate. For years, the Titanico (which I rode on a LeMond Sarthe, until a thief ended the relationship) was my favorite saddle. My latest long-distance saddle is a Selle SMP Glider (on my Gunnar Roadie). For this new commuter, the Cambium was my first choice: I like it better than the B17 I had on my Civia Bryant. I am considering buying a second Cambium just because I think it it brilliant, one of those "perfect things" in modern manufacturing and design. - JP
And looking at pics of the very distinctive-looking glider, I think that's the seat that a friend of mine swears by. Found it almost by accident, he broke a rail during a long organized ride (century?), stopped into the nearest LBS, bought this seat and immediately fell in love. (It still has something like "store tester, not for resale" or the like printed on it)
The selle smp seats do look wierd but I love my trk

Every commute is a race. I do victory laps in my driveway
You have to make up your own mind .. Note : in addition to colors are also 2 Selle anatomica leather top types .Should I save up for one of those rather than a Selle Anatomica Titanico?
X heavier and lighter rider options and center hole or not .. so for the indecisive ,
with the C17 all you have to choose is whether you want slate or tan canvas top surface..
leather will absorb some sweat , rubber of course wont ... remains to be seen how the C17 rubber Ages..
FWIW, rubber brake pads get harder with age..

On the rubber saddles, I figured the top layer would peel off in time.
one of these from Nashbar, is that what you wanted to know?
Yes, thank you.

Remember that Onion headline a few years back when Pope John Paul II died? "Heaven Less Opulent Than Vatican, Reports Disappointed Pope." Zing. Everybody knows that the pope and his posse at the Vatican live surrounded by ornate and priceless treasures amid ancient buildings designed and decorated by brilliant minds from the past. And now you can see it up close. In St. Paul for one of only three U.S. stops, the traveling exhibit "Vatican Splendors: From Saint Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums, and the Swiss Guard," brings the grandeur of the world's smallest city-state to the Catholic faithful and curious non-Catholics alike. The pieces presented span thousands of years of Catholic history and show a side of the Vatican not seen at the pope's public receptions. The show includes the Mandylion of Edessa, what is thought to be the first image of Jesus to make its way to Rome; a reliquary containing what the Vatican says are the bones of Saint Peter; and schematics for the original Saint Peter's Basilica built by Constantine. More modern objects on display include a white smoke cartridge used to announce the election of Pope Benedict XVI, John Paul II's pastoral staff, and photos and stories examining his work around the world.
